Anyone playing it?

I have for an hour or two so far, I really like it.

I thought there would be SA servers but nothing there. For now have been playing on London, but honestly the lag isn't noticeable even in other player kill cams.
 
Really enjoy it also, just gets crazy at times with all the titans etc !

I thought there be a mode where you can defend waves of enemies like in titanfall 1 :(

It really is good. I find it very refreshing from the normal BF and COD, and surprisingly the community is actually very friendly. (of course there's the odd one now and again)

I was in the same boat, so I started playing the modes where it is players only, and the other with titans only.
Now I understand them both pretty well.

Ended up getting my key from cdkeys, was about R600 with a 5% off. Never heard of the site you mentioned though.

It is my new site I started about a month ago. Still busy spreading the word.

I play quite regularly. I must say that I am loving this game. We need a south african network (Network inside Titanfall 2, you can join more than one) so that we can all play together.

BTW, the latency might be around 180-200 but the architecture is using Multiplay's cloud bursting tech that almost nullifies lag.

In Titanfall 1 there was a mode called Attrition where it was 2 teams of 5 pilots and ai waves would spawn. That mode is in Titanfall 2 as well, however, Titanfall 2 also adds the mode called 'Bounty Hunter' or something like that where you need to get cash and put it in the bank. There is AI in that map as well.
 
For the guys playing this game, what is the latency like? 50ms? 100ms+? I'm thinking of getting this game too :)

I'm in Cape Town and I get an average of about 170ms to 180ms with minor spikes to 200ms.

In my honest opinion if you don’t constantly stare at the ping and look for issues, then you wont notice any.
Once I get focused in a game I personally don’t see any lag or think "I lost because of lag" and so on.

I also play Overwatch and Rainbow 6 Siege which both have the same ping as TF2, and I rarely see any lag issues.
If you're a CS:GO player who plays on local servers, then I'm sure you'll find issues.

Thanks for replying. I ended up getting Battlefield 1 instead. Might still get TF2 later on :) I get a ping of about 200ms and to be honest, I don't really notice any issues either and no one has complained about my high ping as yet :) So far, I'm really enjoying it!

I am also thinking about getting BF1 later this month, but the beta didn't excite me.

I think what was wrong with the beta is that they gave us a map crawling with snipers. The other maps are much better. I signed up for Origin Access first (R50 pm) which gave me 10 hours playtime before I had to decide whether to buy the game or not. If you don't like it, cancel your subscription. At least you'll get 10 hours of BF1 for R50 ;)

Not a bad idea. Might look into doing that.
