For the titan survival badge, what if at the very end when titan hull is critical, you just stood on the deck the whole time? Then, " The enemy titan core has been destroyed ", you parachute safely down to the ground...BAM! You deserve an award soldier...You have recieved the Titan Survival badge/pin/ribbon or whatever the hell it is. How about this thought, pretty smart,huh?

I actually had this happen to me the other day.
I joined a game late in the round and spawned on an APC and podded up to the titan. About 3 seconds after landed I hear "The enemy titan is destroyed" so I jump off after only being on the titan for about 5 seconds, but still got the Tumbler pin.
But usually, I get more points (in Kills, Titan attack pins, Combat efficiency pins, etc) by attacking aggresively, than in sitting back and waiting for the titan to blow. I've found I don't live long on the Titan if I sit still in one place for too long (Unless I'm camping the vents), so I wouldn't give myself a lot of chance to be able to camp on the back of the Titan long enough to get the pin.

Uh yeah, I had a look at your stats, Shorkey...
And uh, you should probably try to do this as much as you can and stay away from the action inside the titan as much as possible...
Hehe. Take those points wherever you can. I also would suggest sitting in the AA gunner seat in the walker, and collecting as many 0.5 assists as possible heh. Although I REALLY suggest you get on that titan, n00b up with some APMs, and get that score per minute and kill-death ratio up. It's all about the SPM and KDR! (or so they tell me)

I was playing as PAC on Suez Canal. The EU commander had parked his Titan over the bridge leaving his ground base spawn. Anyways, after PAC won the round by blowing the Titan, I jumped and landed on one of the supports/arches that go over the bridge. Once I landed, I got the pin. I then jumped off landing on the bridge and got the pin a second time.
Makes me wonder if you can get a 'friendly fire off' server and blow yourself into the sky with RDX to get another pin when landing... :D

I was in an APC, and podded up to the Titan. When I was still in mid-air the enemy titan was destroyed. I landed on the titan, and went right back down for the pin....

unless you timed it right, I don't think there is enough time.
Also just to let you know, it would prolly be seen as padding. IMO

This pin does seem a bit ripe for exploiting don't it?
At least it's only 10 points once (or twice if you're lucky) a round so it's not gonna spin the world off it's axis.

I have gotten it by just running out the titan and jumping and hitting the parachute button just before I hit the ground.
Besides waiting outside is stupid, whe you could be helping your team.
