Let's Discuss Titan!

[TheCongoSpider 8,942]

But if someone is constantly getting lucky shots then something's not right and you should be thinking of whether to report them or not. If it's the alteration then maybe it needs to be fixed to be more random.

RNG. I once got 5 straight lucky shots with my Magnum. 2 of them were ~4,150 damage allowing me to one-shot an enemy Titan. The others were around 3,800. Same thing for the opposite end. I go in expecting to one-shot a medium hull and I see 2,300 damage on them. Had a streak of unlucky shots at some point a while ago where I was constantly hitting below my average damage. 

 

They can get lucky and have the majority of their Viking Overdriven shots be lucky. They can get unlucky and have the majority of their Viking Overdriven shots be unlucky. Or, they can be the average tanker and have a healthy mix between lucky and unlucky, but then we get to Round Destabilisation which has a massive RNG element to it. The first Overdriven shot could deal 200 but then the next one can kill you from 2,800 HP. You can notice the RNG on that alteration. 

 

We can't see if they're getting lucky shots or not because the defense from Titan's dome waters down the damage. 

It's pretty much safe to say that no turret can kill a titan of the same modification in its dome using Vikings OD alone or without added damage boosts.

At the very least, it's funny to see a Viking Overdriven Twins flip the players inside the dome.

Do enemy Titans' Domes look like this in DM?

If I remember right it used to look grey in DM. But no I have no way of finding out now, cos every time I try to pick DM, I'm kept waiting for 3 mins till timer lapses. DM doesn't seem very popular now :(

Yes, this was changed in Update #579

[TheCongoSpider 8,942]

Yeah I knew it was changed. But I can't get into DM so I wanted to know what it looked like there. That screenshot was from a while ago when I was due to get an error on the Client. 

[Thomas11239 366]

I like all overdrives except for this boring dome, it just sits there for sooo long without a hunter.

Yea, seems like nobody can get into DMs now since there arent enough players.

While the Mammoth's overdrive can kill you without even touching you, they made titan's overdrive less reliable! Why's that?

Because titans dome was OP. You could tank all 7 seconds of Vikings OD and more without much problem.

Titan is the best choice for me because I could do my M2 Vulcan Ignite Flame combo with my OD with my fire protection 25% too OP!

me too! but it us best to use that combo in short range.

I'd uses it a lot in MM battle and it's very best suit to my playing style

Maybe this was mentioned a loooong time ago (not back-reading to the beginning of time) but...

Slap a smoky on a Titan and it's a spitting image of the Matilda II British tank from WWII

My titan is at 15/20.

I'm thinking there's no point in taking it up to 20 as it will give me only +118 health and at a cost of 169,630 crystals.

Anyone agree?

It always feels like this until you see how many times you're left with near 1 HP from an RD/LCR Railgun or Magnum or Gauss with 20/20 Titan. 

 

That's a lot of crystals so I'd spend them somewhere else and upgrade the Titan one at a time during the sales.

Depends on what else you want to buy/upgrade.  If nothing else - why not?

You might want to consider alterations ... as they may not be available in garage in future.

I'm currently at 19/20 - see not reason to shell out for that last MU.

May not? Or will not? Because I thought they would go from garages by Monday.

[coconuttree 519]

Maybe do 1 upgrade during this sale. Keep in mind that if you play juggernaut, your juggernaut strength depends on the modification level of tank(including mk8). So if you play juggernaut a lot, maybe it's a good idea to have a 20/20 hull to get the full 20000 hp.

I promise the alt doesn't need nerfing. It is highly unpredictable and you incur death much more frequently when it lays an egg with an enemy that should die if you hit it with at least 3-400 dmg and the alt fails to even give you that amount:(. 

[ghost-guns 1,486]

I'm upgrading it up to 20 now. Seem to be earning crystals really fast and up to 111,000 already since the other week (courtesy of a 25,000 crystal container).

[tendollar 1]

Hey guys,

So I'm coming back after a couple years of not playing this game, but I used to play it when the repair chests had the Red Cross on them and twins were like....the newest gun haha.

After playing with EVERY gun and EVERY hull I came down the the desicion that the Titan was my favorite hull, and that Thunder works best with it.  This is only my opinion, there are MANY players much better than me that would disagree with me so I don't want to cause hate in the chat haha.  I do have a few reasons for this combo:

1) Titan is a hunky but relatively quick hull for it's armor and thunder is a midrange turret (thunder doesn't do nearly as much damage when playing far away, and damages you almost as much as your enemy when up close) so since they both work pretty well at midrange, I think it makes a monster out of any player at midrange, even when you haven't reached M3-M4 status.

2) Titan is clunky, but thunder doesn't require much accuracy: I've often killed tanks with my thunder+titan combo when blasting walls instead of actually making direct hits, and I've often killed sets of tanks by just shooting a wall near them which helps when you're trying to get away from Firebird and Freeze turrets which normally use evasive maneuvers against bigger guns (at least from what I've seen).  I'm also a bit of a clunky video game player, because I don't play many (only tanki currently actually) so not having to be as accurate helps, and titan gives me some extra armor when being attacked by better players but still enough speed to get around I've captured a good number of flags and points while using titan)

3) Yes, Titan is a rather ugly hull overall, but that's also what people will say when they're intimiated by other people, so fellow titan users, remember that.  I think the Mammoth is an okay hull, but it's just TOO slow.  It's not that hard for a firebird to get to you even when sniping, and then it takes sometimes 10 or so seconds before you can even get a shot off at people.  And against those isida, firebird, freezer, turrets using titan, just get a few modules and update them till you're better protected, that's what I've done.

Pardon my English, It's not the best, but I hope that this is at least helpful in this discussion

[The-Operator219 88]

Titan is a medium hull. Discuss. 

[Mrat13 34]

So, I've been thinking recently, what if the problem isn't Hunter OD being too powerful, but Titan OD being too weak.

Why am I suddenly defending Hornet, you might ask? Because I've noticed a big problem in this game: Everyone is more drugged up than all the Russian athletes combined. And those who aren't, lose. And guess what counters that.......

Well, both Hornet and Titan do. So really, my idea helps against two problems (as Titan would be seen more)

The idea? Make it so Titan OD can't be mitigated, by which I mean turned off by other ODs. This would be a nerf to Hunter as well as Hornet, yes, but, also a buff to Wasp, Ares and technically Mammoth, as the only things that would still be able to counter Titan OD.

So, I buffed Titan, Wasp, Ares, and Mammoth, while nerfing, Hornet, Hunter, and technically drugs (as Titan is more useful). Not bad for one change....

Thoughts?

Actually, just make it a legit dome shield, not some weird-ass shield generator will solve most of the issues.

Titan with an AP augment goes to the park to control a point.

A hornet sees it coming and prepares for attack, but sees the augment on Titan and runs away.

Titan: hornets are funny guys. They insist on tickling me. Real dangers are other titans and hunters.

Thats how a Titan will rule siege from tomorrow. 

Titans which takes AP immunity must be OP:)  Will titan be popular?

[Mr.Spark 240]

I want to use AP immunity titan with autocannon smoky
