The Titanfall website
has details on Game Update 6, the next patch for the mech shooter. Word is this
will de-mech the game a bit, as the free update will add a new game mode called
Pilot Skirmish which removes Titans from the mix. They also reveal other
gameplay enhancements and fixes the new version will bring, saying the patch is
coming soon. Here's part of the plan:
Pilot Skirmish is the New Featured
Game Mode - Pilot Skirmish is an 8v8 mode with no AI and no Titans. Due to the
difference in player sizes with the rest of the game modes, Pilot Skirmish will
not be among the game modes played when choosing Variety Pack playlist.
Marked For Death is Now its own Permanent Game Mode! - When we first introduced
Marked For Death, we were planning to rotate it out for another mode after a
couple of weeks, but the enduring popularity of the mode convinced us to bring
it on full-time. There will now be a Marked For Death playlist to choose from,
along with custom Marked For Death loadouts to unlock.
Added Modes for Colorblind Titan Pilots - Three colorblind options (protanopia,
deuteranopia, and tritanopia) have been added. They affect IFF glows, crosshair
colors, and names above heads.
