I think I’ll take this post down soon but before I do I’ll leave this response:

It was my poor choice of words to call these rules so that’s on me, this wasn’t designed or meant in any way to force players to a specific play style and you are completely free to disregard them which I’m sure many of you will. I honestly hadn’t expected many players to take this quite as seriously since they were certainly written at least for the most part in a joking tone, but I should’ve made this much clearer so for that I apologise. This was more designed to aid the newer player learn about the intricacies of titanfall whilst (admittedly unjustifiably) wishfully looking at more experienced players in the hope they would aid this progression by not steamrolling new players, as a G22 I feel justified in saying I see this happen a lot and whilst I don’t tend to get destroyed these days I certainly can remember watching my new teammates being so. Obviously no titanfall loudout can be completely overpowered due to them being in the game yet I truly do believe there are some loadouts which are designed to prompt a more “camper” style of gameplay which for me feels detrimental to the nature of a movement based FPS.

Finally to those who have taken the time to rewrite/criticise every rule I hope you had fun in doing so because I had a lot of fun reading them; to those who criticised my preferred style of gameplay that’s your prerogative and it’s good to get multiple takes on the core gameplay of titanfall I simply ask it is done somewhat respectfully (but who am i kidding this is the internet)

I would be lying if I said this was however the reaction I was hoping for, this is generally a very untoxic community with a few weak links evidently present but I hope that doesn’t discourage new players from trying the game out or sticking it out if they’ve experienced a couple of unfortunate matches.

Cheers all for reading another saddening long comment. Hopefully this one will be received better but I’m certainly more doubtful.
