Ronin was the originally-teased Titan, wielding swords and the ability to disappear from view with its Phase Dash. Each of the six Titans have unique weapons and abilities. These Titans are badass, and well-thought-out in terms of gameplay mechanics. There’s always a race to be the first to get a Titanfall (the calling down of your Titan once your meter fills up), earning you a badge, and netting your team a strategic advantage, if you are the first player to call in a Titan. But throw in the game’s iconic Titans into the mix, and even these modes feel refreshed. The classics are all here, like Skirmish (Team Deathmatch), Capture the Flag, and Amped Hardpoint (teams vie for control of spots on the map). There are a lot of modes in Titanfall 2’s multiplayer, and there is little doubt that you’ll find something you like in here. Titanfall 2‘s new grappling hook is also incredibly useful, as we’ll see below, and maps were also created with it in mind - verticality was not ignored in the map designs, and thus many maps have multi-leveled lane designs, which is as fun as it sounds. Matches are also usually limited to 10 minutes, though many conclude sooner than that. Maps are also on the large size, but not so large as to get lost in them and end up getting bored in a fight. Switching over to a server in Utah or Iowa resulted in ping times of 32 and 64 ms, respectively. As an example, playing on a server located in London while living in Southern California resulted in a ping time of around 150 ms at worst, and even then the game was able to somehow compensate and keep things moving just fine. Everything runs smoothly, and unless your network connection isn’t up to snuff, any deaths you may experience in multiplayer are usually due to your own failure to react in time to a hazard or enemy. The game doesn’t appear to skip a beat (or frames) no matter how hectic the onscreen action may get. From a technical standpoint, Titanfall 2 looks and plays wonderfully.
