I main a Titan, I use him to the point of breaking things, so I have a good feel for how they play and how they're [u]mean't[/u] to play. Let's take a look shall we?
Things a Titan [b]should[/b] do:
Use a CQC secondary for crucible
Be the spearhead of an attack
Stick as close to the enemy as possible
-----------------------------
Things a Titan [u]shouldn't[/u] do:
Run a sniper in crucible
Camp in the back as if they're a Hunter.
Run away from a single threat
-----------------------------
Get it? Got it? Good.
And try as you might to say "this is horse hockey, I can use a Titan however I want", explain why on earth then that it's the [b][u]HUNTERS[/u][/b] that have the long range perks?
-
Runs double shotguns and sword with NBPs. Am I doing CQC right?
-
I'll still use a sniper on my Titan idgaf
-
Bladedancer's lead the way.
-
Sunbreaker with enhanced grenade regen, armamentarium and max discipline here, with Paleocontact and Vacancy. Decent mid to long range. Usually save my super for when everyone else has wadded up, shadowshot and stormtranced each other.
-
Heres something a Striker must NEVER DO! Fist of Havok more than one person
-
[quote]Am I supposed to care about the theme of the class when they are just as effective with every other weapon type?[/quote] //thread terminated

Agreed. Except for Sun breaker's., with the second longest ranged super* and 12 sec grenade's. Oh, or the Defender that holds ground and can turn any sniper into a one shot body shot kill. But yeah, Titans are CQC...except for Blade dancers and their one shot back stab. Or sunsingers/storm callers who best are served in the front lines. Damn, guess I have to play how I feel like. Including running so I can live to fight some more. The titans are damn good at this. [spoiler] *in my experience: Ranged attack: Shadow shot, Hammer of Sol, Golden Gun, Nova Bomb, and tied Fist of Havok, Blade dance, radiances (approx grenade range) Character movement: Striker, Blade dancer, Sunbreaker,[/spoiler]

[quote]Can we please stop using the argument, "Titans are tanks." For real, Overwatch has tank characters, but tank characters all have: [b]High health, Low Mobility, Large Hitboxes.[/b] Nothing about this applies to the Titan. It is "supposed" to be that way but it just isn't. Everybody has almost the same exact amount of health, the same hitbox, and Titans have the most mobility. Nothing about that classifies them as a tank. The same goes for other classes, the hunter isn't built for "Offense specifically" but instead is built to do it all. Stop trying to say that each class has a specific role when each class has the same role with different abilities.[/quote]

Silly Titans. #huntermasterrace

Watch

I am definitely a run and gun titan. But that doesn't work on every map or every game even. Just gotta play to the other teams weakness.

Edited by Astrobastard: 5/5/2016 8:14:41 PMBut why not? Snipers handle exactly the same across three characters, so there is no reason not to camp. And what "long range perks" for the Hunter directly effect long range engagements only?
-
I've found with my build that a longer range is very effective on a Titan. Simmering Flames and Armamentarium give grenades for days and when I use my Super, the range on the hammers is excellent. Warlocks on the other hand with Soul Drain and the range of melee are well equipped for a close range fight.
-
I'm a titan main and I run a sniper in crucible all the time but I don't camp back too boring not enough action
-
The game is more about customizability. If someone likes the titan grenades and supers, but also loves snipers, why should they have to give up one or the other
-
A titan should lead the charge with a thick stack of waffles in each hand, ready to Frisbee them into the enemies. None can stand against the delicious golden brown death circles.
-
Use fabian strategy.
-
I'm inclined to agree. Titans have the best set of perks for facesmashing, guns blazing, dicks or tits out aggression and sitting back wastes that potential. I main a Hunter but I'll happily slip into Titan boots for a change of pace!
-
Titans should also be a tank, but we all know how that subclass worked out.
-
Listen to anyone on the forums. [spoiler]I do what I want![/spoiler]
-
A titan should never use a sword because he may be mistaken for SAMURAI! http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/xSICx%20MIJO%2023/video/17238781 Don't mind the disturbing noise he makes at the end. He's a smoker.
-
I know what a titan should do. Shoot the bad mans. That's it.
-
Those who stand and fight to their death are scrubs, but those that run from a fight are worse than scrubs. They're not Titans they aren't even guardians they are worse then the darkness itself.
-
My t rex arms are useless in CQB
-
what aboit universal remote? and a fusion? cuz thats how i do...
-
Very true and agreed, I always see atleast one pussy Titan in a match, where I will go to kill them and then they just proceed to turn straight around and Titan skate, as if that wasn't fast enough to, and didn't make it hard enough to to catch up, they will shoulder charge for extra distance away and use twilight garrison to get away faster too, like stop being a little bitch and come back
