‘Titanfall’ Patch Dropping Onto Servers

A Titanfall patch is dropping onto servers over the next day which will address a few issues regarding balancing and some egregious bug stomping. The Titanfall patch should be live on all servers by Monday.

One of the biggest changes in the Titanfall patch we found was the lowering of defense point allocation in Hardpoint mode which has led to many players being first place in the the match simply by sitting and guarding a hard point from IMC or Militia teams. And for players who preferred the smart pistol will find that damage will be reduced when not locked onto a pilot making the weapon less effective as a free shooter. A good balance is that of the Mega Turret which will now be restored to full health upon hacking it for your sides use.

One notable bug fix in the Titanfall patch includes fixing a bug where Titans would be come stuck in their landing position making them good target practice. Otherwise there ar sonly minor tweaks and balances to make the games a more level playing field. You can read the full Titanfall update log on the official forums or see them below in their entirety.
