I'm talking about the guys who just camp at the end of the corridors of consoles 1 and 2 with supply crates and just keep throwing frags one after each other!! Must be the most annoying thing ever.

How u meant to get through them if a frag is thrown like literally every second!!??? :mad:

you get a medic behind you and one behind him, you rush the corridor throwing nades at him and hopefully youll land one near him even though you'll die and the medic behind you revives you and the one behind him is ready as well and you rush in and blow the console. its all about overwhelming them with bodies in the corridors, you have to get a good charge going and the more the merrier.

What if it's like 3 or more of them just constantly throwing frags??? That must be near impossible....

*FMJ* Power, hit the nail on the head, works a treat, eventually.
If you have the numbers to do it, you can do it 1st time.

LOL, one of the best things about being support is the almost endless grenades. Think of it as a mortar-lite. There's several counters to it, the most obvious and easiest one (which hardly anyone ever thinks of) is to ignore the 'nade spammers and go somewhere else. It an enemy titan is heavily defended, just don't bother and cap silo's instead. Unless you've got a switched on team, you're never going to take a well defended corridor.

Personally, I'm not one for letting the enemy rack up easy kills. I don't mind taking a hit or two for the team, but without decent and sensible backup, withdrawal is the sensible option.

Exactly. Just go somewhere else. Thats one of the great things about Titan mode.

There are many option open to the player. Every time I die I rethink my tactics. Sometimes I'll notice that almost the entire enemy team is attacking our Titan, then I see their Titans shields go down. At this point I'll get over to their Titan as quickly as possible and call my squad over a.s.a.p. A squad of 2 recon and 2 support can finish off a Titan in no time when its not being defended.

Equally, as others have pointed out, often simply keeping hold of the silos is the best way to win in Titan mode.

if you think THAT is bad try adding two turrets to the mix.

I speak from personal experience. :laugh:

Well just to add my piece, when our Titan Shield is Down I defend Like there is no tomorrow. With Claymores/C4 or just Support with my trusty Sentry Gun and with either the DysTek Pulse Meter or the IPS Shield.

Now people complain that I camp etc... But I believe the idea is to make it as hard as you can so people don’t blow the consoles.

Now on the other way around when ever I attack and the consoles are heavy guarded I don’t cry like a little girl and keep spamming you damn n00b all u know is 2 camp etc… I try 1-2-3 times if I am not playing on an organized group then I happily walk away and go capture some silos. And then watch enemy titan blow up.

Peace!

take a squad of 6,

3 medics, 3 support

flank them

1 med and 1 support on each side

and 1 med and 1 support down the middle, they will go for the ones in the middle, while the flankers own the B@astards...

works like a charm... after, 2 support back to back, covering you so taht they dont come back, while you pwn the console.

yeah, but the second you enter, ure most probably owned due to the 5 support campers with IPS shields.. and their sentry.

Exactly, the OP wanted to know, how he can get in himself WITH others... not laying on the ground calling for a medic, in vain.. lol...

But ure tactic will always work, as defenders are ALWAYS crowded together.

the other team can't win if they are all on thier titan def. Just cap some silos, then go back and try again. Rinse and Repeat.:D

Put a sheild down run and dive, it will blow after 1 nade. then when your behind it, throw a nade at them, as many as you can. A few will die and hopfully your team can take over

Our team was dominating the Silo scene but we had 1 squad of 4 at the titan, we held people off at the first 3 consoles for as long as we could, at the last console we went 3 support, 1 assault and set up a med hub and ammo hubs near the console, and had 2 turrets on either side of the hall, and one set a nice way back in case the first two died we had a failsafe. We spammed EMP and FRAG nades. along with a Baur and 3 support guns going off we were pretty much set, took a very long and boring time, but we lasted long enough for our missiles to destroy their titan.

Oh and to break these sort of defenses use those seldom used smoke nades. They disrupt the Turrets, as for the smoke and EMP just run through them guns blazing Use your sprint to go through the smoke. It works most of the time if EVERYONE goes at the same time, sure some of you might fall bu thave a medic follow the group, drop a hub mid corridor and have a dfib ready. if you run and gun through the bottle neck you're set. oh and those smoke nades are important, If you can, once you have a clear shot, Have support throw an EMP nade to disrupt the turrets, and screw with the peoples vision.

THis is why who is Commander is so important. I think a good commander is more important on titan. You cant always assume that youre 23 teamates will see the obvious tactical oppenings.
Its frustrating being on a team that doesnt go for the jugular on the enemys titan for the first 5 minutes when its only moderately defended, and then eventually loosing because the commander is 5 minutes behind whats happening on the map.

just like the guys said, most eney players will be busy supporting each other defending their titan...I do that all the time getting silos is much more easier with no enemy ground troopers bothering ya.

just light a smoke and sit beside a silo.

Titan mode makes me wonder how many people survived the new Ice Age, and how many thousands of soldiers get killed assaulting a Titan. Human race has got to be digging it's own grave trying to take those bloody corridors. Stupidest assault method ever.

Drop a nuke through the vents or something.

Hail me! I got through those kind of defenses today!

I was, of course, Assault and used smokes. Then some team members died during their own little assault. And then i was the only one left and i was behind one of the small walls. Used my last smoke to come closer and mowed them down with grenades and my Voss!

And a other kind of dfense that diffucult to break is the simple 2 support guys and medic and 2 sentry guns. Really hard is that one!

when i play titan i usually don't even try to set foot on the other teams titan. i either defend mine or run around and cap silos

I see it the other way around. Nearly every time some people are spamming frags, some "rambo" wants to walk into the middle of it, even though they can clearly see 3 people throwing nades. Then they team punish. Most of the time I've stopped spamming nades to let someone go out of the corridor, they get killed by the enemy, then the enemy comes in with nades and support, killing everyone defending the console. There are countless times the enemy would be able to take the console if no one were spamming nades. I usually spam nades when ever the sentry gun is going, and the enemy is near.

If people are defending the lower consoles, just go out the door of the upper ones. If people are defending the upper consoles, go out the lower doors. More often than not, your gonna catch an enemy off guard and take a couple out this way, rather than trying to go out the same way they are coming in, in which case you often get blasted in the face as soon as you walk around the corner.

one of the best defenses is justa support with his shelid and hub, and a medic with rockets. he can spam the rockets all day down the corridor, throw in a few apms for good measure and its a tough group to get thru.

Fight fire with fire. Throw grenades back or PK-Rocket them. If they blow up, they can't keep spamming.

What? You can't take the upper consoles first without taking the lower consoles. There is only one entry into all the consoles. You can try the other console on the same level, but once you get that side of the titan done, you still have that campfest on the other side. Then you just leave them alone and go cap some silos while you leave behind a sheep to keep them busy.

It's been said already, just go back on the ground and cap the silos. If they have any intention on winning, they'll eventually begin to head back onto the ground and then you can try again after a while. Or, if you're on the team I was yesterday, they'll just stay on the Titan and watch the health meter drop :mad:

Really, the best opportunity is heading up there as soon as the shields drop. By yourself, you can take down 2 consoles easy as Recon and if there's others, they can usually take down 1 more console. Usually by the time you get to the 4th console though, there's some defenders there.

How about a squad of medics rushing, all with the claw of undeath equipped?

revive,revive,revive,devive

I would like to see it tried :)

It needs people to take one for the team to get past just a few to run in with nades ready to lob, yes they will die but they will take out a few defenders

Ahh, I was talking on defending, not attacking. On your own titan.

if its a busy titan throw about 15-20 smoke grenades down the corridor. the extreme lag will make them mis-throw their grenades and kill themselves and thier team-mates.

AR Rocket into the corridor on air burst seems to work along with you own team thrwoing frags into the corridor....You can work around it it is just hard to do.

Right click nading always works, left click you will always have to compensate to the fixed throw power.

Seriously - just find a sniper with talent and have him headshot everyone in the hallway and a medic to revive him if a stray grenade finds its way.

For the grenade spammers, often an active defense is more effective than a purely static. If you clear the doorway to the corridor every few minutes, it keeps the attacks down and holds the console better. Go through the vents (by podding) or through open doorways, but don't just sit there.

i was just on Verdun Titan, when this dude just sat there on the oppo team for like 20kills, just sat there nading, so i thought...

"ok this guy is ghey"

So it was kamikaze, just shouted to team, FOLLOW ME!

And we stormed his *** a treat!

Cazzy

Not for nothing but I love when my team has one corridor locked down tight... I then pod into the vent and have a merry time mowing down all the enemy dancing around outside the door to the camped corridor. I got 23 kills in a row this way.... they just kept bunching up and standing still for the kill :)
