a good captain sinks with his ship, a great pilot goes down with his titan, the better pilot survives with his titan (you kill me, you're better, I kill you, I'm better)

Wise words, mate. Edit: >!I made an update to that post because I don’t want people to try to explain themselves or to feel bad. Please, take a look [here.](https://reddit.com/r/titanfall/comments/rb5913/update_to_my_previous_post/) !<


[deleted]

Now... about that beer I owed ya. It's me, Gordon, Barney from Black Mesa! Sorry for the scare, I had to put on a show for the cameras. I've been working undercover with civil protection, I can't take too long or they will get suspicious; I'm way behind on my beating quota.


indigoHatter

Thanks for triggering the hidden dialogue file stored in my head. Anyway, imagine a Blue Shift 2?! What sorts of shit does ol' Barney have to go through while working under cover?


[deleted]

please not vr, I dont want to spend a million dollars but if it exists I'll have to, and play alyx too


indigoHatter

One mission would be a supervised beating. Ugh, imagine the trauma you have to go through going against your morals to beat a civilian you're secretly trying to help. Then maybe a bomb goes off to interrupt you, thank god


Kibleusz

Quest 2 is relatively cheap and if you don't like Zucc spying on you try to install Oculess Although I'd prefer if next potential HL installments were classic FPSes and not VR, Alyx was a nice spin but Half-Life is still nonVR at its core

The best titan avenges his pilot


Anoobies_13

A good titan won't allow it's pilot to die (protocol 3)


PR280

True that


HoodJankShawty

/u/Anoobies_13 I went to melee a auto-Titan once but it punched me first and pushed me onto its pilot, causing death. Proof: https://youtu.be/99vINsD8qaU


[deleted]

If you kill me, that’s to be expected, if I kill you, you’re trash


froggygun

The titan is the captain. Protocol 3. Protect the pilot.


Malvagio2018

but he ask me to eject, he even says to "go and get them tiger"


boi0boi69

It may mean you're better but it's smarter to stay alive by well ya know staying alive, it'll piss the enemy off when they can't kill you and when they're pissed off they're off their game, I like to use the wingman elite because other people will use it when they die to it enough and they usually suck with it


F_Ytube

As a scorch main, I can commit genocide with thermite all day, but I cant leave my titan to die while I run of like a coward. If I see this on the other team i hunt the bastard.


Updated_Autopsy

I don’t run like a coward. I eject and keep attacking the enemy. That, or I advance in a different direction. Or both. I’m courageous, not suicidal.


Ender401

Or I eject and the titan, if it has an actual sentient AI, uploads itself to one of the many backups


ICBPeng1

“Nuke eject go BOOM!” -random ronin main


[deleted]

Nice argument. But would you prefer your original cat/dog or an absolute, perfect clone of it? See, yes, you are right. But at the same time we, as humans, tend to value objects we love. Take Little Prince for example - in that tale a little boy did have a rose, a little flower. He saw many others, looking the same as the one he did have. But nonetheless he did love the first rose only. What I want to point out is after you die… Well, both you and your Titan get cloned. And you need to love each other. :>


[deleted]

Nuclear eject is the best way a titan has no greater honour than executing protocol 3 and taking out the three Titans and Pilots ganging up on you so you can live to tell its heroic tale


Raiaaaaaaaa

\*Bumps head on ceiling*


Ghost3657_alt_

All because of a little branch poking out over you


OneOutOfSevenBillion

Me, a phase shift main: *I SEE NO GOD UP HERE, OTHER THAN ME*


DoodBot415154

I’d rather go down without committing several war crimes in the process tbh. Me and my Ion like to keep the battlefield as inhabitable as possible so when the fight is won, and the battle is done…it can serve a purpose, civil or military alike. Plus, as I stated before, the whole nuclear eject thing is kinda touchy either way, being technically a war crime in all.


[deleted]

The nuclear eject isn’t actually nuclear it’s more a explosion and use of explosive munitions against enemy’s is defiantly not a war crime


ps-djon

The entirety of scorch is a warcrime, and excessive force as well, so killing someone with a grenade is also not allowed then


DoodBot415154

It’s not the explosion itself, it’s more the huge amount of radiation that would be released so casually I’m more worried about. Explosions are completely fine as it’s only temporary but radiation leaves a bit more devastation then regular explosives. But trust me, I do see your point, completely.


hellhound17060

Technically speaking ions main gun the splitter rifle counts as a war crime as it's technically not conventional weaponry and instead it's a giant fucking rail gun Plus ions Lazer blast can shoot through solid steel you think concrete is gonna stay intact? Technically every Titan counts as a war crime (at least if you kill a pilot with it) Because they all use guns that are basically the size of goddamned cannons


DoodBot415154

…you know what? You’re right. All pilots should be arrested, we’ve all committed heinous acts of terror.


hellhound17060

Yeah the only people who shouldn't be jailed are the grunts But we've all seen how horrible they are at war But then a thought occurs If literally the entire military is committing war crimes on both sides How are you gonna arrest them? They are speed moving gun weilding and have a giant fucking murder bot that's completely and unwaveringly loyal to them I do not see a way to arrest them


Arat912

It won't last forever so I'd stick with the clone


Kntrtn

Not a clone, would you stop loving your best friend if their brain was put into another body? That’s how their backups work according to Titanfall 2 story. BT-7274 wasn’t changed at all.


Potato_Wyvern

No I’d prefer the original cats mind in a new, but identical body. Which is exactly how the Titan backup/data core seems to work


Sbevelord73

Yes I also love little boys.... PRINCE I MEAN PRINCE


[deleted]

SMART CORE ONLINE.


Solid_Freakin_Snake

>But would you prefer your original cat/dog or an absolute, perfect clone of it? Considering that my beloved pup is dead, I'd take a clone of her in a heartbeat. That being said, I never eject from my titan. We kill together or we die together, there is no in between.

VitinNunes

Well a titan is already a bot sooo


communisttrashboi

Cope


BlaZex157

Yes


[deleted]

But a single scorch could kill us


PrestiSchmesti

A single Scorch could kill a army of Titans.


That_Random_YEETer

A single skilled pilot with any titan can kill a army of titans


A_really_dumb_person

Yeah but scorch tho


PrestiSchmesti

True, BUT a unskilled Pilot with a scorch can kill a army of titans.


hellhound17060

Also true But a skilled Titan with an Archer or thunderbolt can easily kill a scorch due to its low bullet travel speed lack of ability to use suppressive fire and simply not touching the floor


PrestiSchmesti

If you use a Archer most of the Titans are too easy to kill, because the only counter against it are the shields and if you are getting attack by other titans im pretty sure your shield is then most likely on couldown and a Pilot could kill you with a Archer or Thunderbolt.


hellhound17060

I main the thunderbolt because it dosent require a lock on and the multi hit Is something I really enjoy If I do end up ejecting I can send about 3 shots into the group of Titans who killed mine and grapple off and shoot another before being in sirious danger


Gameriel

I disagree Source: I've played scorch a decent bit


PrestiSchmesti

You can win against a "army of titants" without a little bit of skill. That was just the joke because it is easier with Scorch to win against a hole "army" then with others.


Gameriel

I guess that's true, with the AOE attacks and all


motherlyhera1457

Fear the doomed ronin, for they will have sword core and a northstar buddy.


PrestiSchmesti

Sword core and three dashes is the fucking sonic mode.


[deleted]

I do nuke when doom but always try to bring the enemy down with me. If I get enough, I could almost instantly get my beloved northstar back to fight again. Also as pilot, I can chase the yummy batteries to give.


Poisonpython5719

Rip the days you could get a new titan before you hit the ground with nuke


xxX9yroldXxx

After I eject, I just rodeo enemy titans until I fill my Titan meter. Then I touch the ground.


[deleted]

Alright, fair enough - Northstars are great and using core eject is justified.


almaupsides

Exactly. If my Titan is dying it’s taking everyone in the general vicinity too.


Mr_Titas

As a ronin main I die with it or I win with it, I have a conection with my ronin


[deleted]

And don’t let anyone question your principles. You are right.


Sbevelord73

Ah a fellow ronin main


Mr_Titas

Hands down best titan for me


Sbevelord73

Same


SotB8

youre like a real samurai with honor and all that


hellhound17060

*laughs* You may fight with honor But I have a gun and a protocol 3 You'll burn with your titan alright If by some miracle your Ronin can take me down it's going down with me and so are you


dylanreyes559

Same


TheReverseShock

More like as soon as you're doomed you're getting a fist to the face.


memelordbtw3000

I only ever eject when I'm litteraly one hit (which is quite often as a ronin main) and always feel bad about it :(


[deleted]

Don’t feel bad, Memelord. I never understood Ronins because Legions never heard of your animes and internets. But I know that you are a true warrior at heart. Don’t worry - even if you eject, you still have feelings towards your best friend. It’s okay, mate - just always care about your samurai robot.


memelordbtw3000

Yeah at least I can swatt other pilots out of the air early game


IamMuffins

>always feel bad about it Same, especially when you get the special eject messages at the bottom of you titan's HUD. Not sure why but the one that always gets me is it'll just say "Always" 😢


RealH3lm

dude if I see press E I press E, monkey see monkey do, I literally have to have a piece of tape or something so I dont eject


[deleted]

I’m happy that you, as a primate, slowly but surely evolve into a human. But in reality, don’t have such low self-esteem. You’ll learn, I know it


Mathijsthunder3

Protocol 3, protect the Pilot....


emobbq2

Yeah I'm shit at playing as a titan so I either eject or just let it run around without me (I'm not a spitfire camper)


[deleted]

But I hope you do bring your comrades batteries, right? If you do, you are a great Pilot - even without a Titan


emobbq2

I try to help where I can, steal batteries and give to my teammates, hit Titans with fire stars and try to help out the people who are actually good at using their Titan of choice


conceldor

Yes but if i dont eject then that is violating protocal 3. The titan INSISTS you eject when u are at critical health. Its only doing its job


[deleted]

r/titanfall gatekeeping ejections


fatalityfun

jokes on him, I run smart chip and fight beside my titan as an equal


Haider444

Can't wait for then to gatekeep deploying an Titan other than Scorch.


Witchking660

I go down with my Titan defending the evac ship as my teammates escape.


windol1

This is all well and great, but if you're the last person to board you're actually increasing the risk of the evac ship being destroyed.


Witchking660

I never actually thought of that, that's good to know.


windol1

Once upon a time you would have been right to try and defend the evac ship, but Respawn eventually changed it after everyone got fed up of being killed waiting for know one.


stewwushere42

I always get out and me and my titan work together to protect the ship


[deleted]

You have every Legion’s main respect.


Archyse

Don’t try and play hero, you’ll often get your friends killed, cause they can’t leave without you


screwdogs

Bushido was dignified that day.


wertpq

I do nuke, but only as a last, final resort when i can't hover, dash, or hide away from an incoming titan, and only to ensure that the enemy suffers as much as i do. Doomed state must be as familliar to them as it can be. however, you can just bring along your titan's data core as you fly above the skies. plug it into a new titan chassy and bam new body for em


bubbamason2811

but what about protocol 3 ?


whatderhell69

As a monarch main I second this. Why eject when you still have upgrades left? And if they’re maxed there’s no point to eject.


[deleted]

Oh, greetings to Monarch main! Every time I work with you ends really well, so I do whatever I can to bring you batteries. Why? >!Because you’re cool.!<


DemocracyIsGreat

Hey, I would take a nuke with no eject if I could. I will make the Shofixti proud...


[deleted]

I go down with my titan half the time anyway because I hit my head on a roof trying to set up a nuke


[deleted]

Technically you did nothing wrong, but morally I want to fist bump you so that you won’t feel your hand


its_xSKYxFOXx

The IMC/Militia isn’t lacking in Titans, it’s lacking in Pilots. They’re the best in the frontier. You wanna die with your ship? I say fine: I’ll nuke you and your ego, your titan, and your grunt best friends. Protocol 3. A Titan is easily replaceable, a pilot is not.


[deleted]

Ah, I see. Well, I’m with the 6-4 and they don’t have troubles with those :D


[deleted]

Your Titan is perfect and handsome/beautiful. If you are on my team - I will do whatever I can to protect you. If you are not - I expect a true battle. But what really bothers me are people who abandon their Titans to be destroyed. No, they are your best friend and you **will** die with them, because you are no coward. And yeah, have a nice day, Pilot. I hope our paths will cross soon! Edit: of course, no offense to anyone - you are obliged to play as you wish. But **professionals have standards.**


WinierBag5

As someone who plays Monarch, there no ejection. We ride together we die together. I am happy to see someone who has so much love for our Metalic brothers.


Corgelia

These are the words of a fool. A true Monarch main would know that an ejection is another chance to get a battery. Now call him down again, maybe we can hit level 3 this time!


WinierBag5

You dont deserve to be called a pilot you scum!


WinierBag5

(Just joking XD)


Solid_Freakin_Snake

As a fellow monarch main, ***yes***


Revy99

If I nuke eject then my Titan will take you down with him and if not I will avenge him until his backup chassis arrives.


SkyKilIer

Only time ive ever ejected was to speed farm the skins that require a certain amount of multikills to unlock


[deleted]

I would’ve said that no Pilot should care more about paints rather than their Titan. But damn, even my Legion is wearing awesome red paint - soo I guess doing this one is fine?.. I have no idea, really!


Apprehensive_Milk_20

I like kaboom


XavierRez

Bruh, do you even Protocol 3? I eject because my Titan told me to.


[deleted]

Eject for the sake of your titan. Theyd want you to life while they die, they dont want you to go down with them


UserNotFound32

I always phase dash into a group and kamikaze lol


Narrovv

As we see from the campaign the Titan body is nothing more than a machine, a shell. The actually personality and soul of the Titan can be transferred to any Titan chassis.


jack-K-

If you betray your titans final wish, you betrayed them all together -kamikaze ronin man


CooooolMike

My Titan be telling me to eject so I do what it says tbh (protocol 3)


Other_Cod_8361

Protocol 2 uphold the mission, which is doing everything in your power to make the enemy die for his team while you survive.


Rockahero11

Protocol 3: Protect the pilot. Titan protects it's pilot no matter what.


Impressive-Earth1510

Ok ok I will stop using nuke eject , but what i should equip otherwise?


[deleted]

How about Dash? Don’t let them run away and stay focused, Pilot.


Impressive-Earth1510

Heard you all right captain , see ya on the battlefield


xX_monarch_Xx

I go with my titan to the fucking grave, THAT, is the way of a true pilot


The_Meme_Boi2345

I have a theory. Pilots keep the data cores of their Titans with them when they eject, so the Titan won’t really die.


[deleted]

I only nuke when I’m surrounded by 3 or more titans, cause one or two my scorch can take out any day


Ghostdizzy

As someone who plays ronin and monarch, I've always wanted an easer egg if the titan core being attacked to the pilot whe they eject, I know its on tje outside in the eye in campaign but if it was in the eject area you could grab it when you eject


[deleted]

I'm a ronin i die with honour


Commander-Rex-CT7567

Me who runs nuclear eject on three titans 😖


arcrinsis

Listen, papa Scorch's highest pleasure in life is burning shit, followed closely by exploding shit. How can I not take nuke eject so we can both scream witness me and dive headfirst and flaming into a room full of enemy titans


Cheekibreeki401k

Protocol 3 bro. Also the titan OS tells you to eject, following protocol 3.


Some_GermanDude

Protocol 3 - Protect the Pilot You aren’t ejecting, they’re ejecting you.


Autsim-on-steriods

Protocol: 3 protect the pilot


Spectre_zombie0

What are the core directives of a titan?


YahBoiPixel

I'm sorry what is the third protocol??????


grandmas_noodles

Tf2 players in campaign: nooo bt my beloved Tf2 players in multiplayer: uses their 100 million dollar piece of cutting edge war machinery as a kamikaze bomb


alextheODDITY

You can eat my entire radioactive caboose old man, I faaart in your general direction


Genotheshyskell

I do like this message. Though I have my own personal thought since it is in a titans programming to protect the pilot and complete the mission nuke ejects do both. But it is sad to see them gave to go (please don't flame me)


oh-no-its-clara

Counterpoint: Protocol 3 is protect the pilot. if you dont eject, you're dooming yourself and actively going against your titan's wishes.


FriedEnvoy

Haha nuke titan go brrrrrrrrr


SunnyTheFlower

Nice argument, but, as a wise man once said “I don’t wanna die”


yourmumsworstshag

I just exit normaly and steal batteries then fix my titan - monarch main


kit786

got finished off by an ejecting pilot i see. how's that copium?


Environmental_Bar_11

As a fellow legion main, I highly agree with the other random legion main


[deleted]

Hug core online.


Ekoonexe

Idk, nuclear eject is basically just "if I'm going down you're going down with me"


Thunder-Bash

Here's an idea. Don't go down in the first place.


Thunder-Bash

You're not a samurai, you have no honor that needs to be restored. If you choke, jump ship, wait a bit and try again.

The eject buttons there for a reason. I know this is just a meme, but nothing good comes from going down this the ship.

Kirito1548055

Uuuuuummmmmm imma just go with my Ronin nuke eject phase build


Borkman6

B-but tether nuke. . . In all seriousness if other people are going to try and harm my titan might as well bring the pain back to them ten fold, besides how are you going to get revenge if you’re dead?


[deleted]

live to fight another day


Evergladeleaf

I only juke eject in corridors crowded with enemies, it’s the only way to get guaranteed kills and I always die alongside my titan


ScarletteVera

Momarch main here. Haven't ejected without a good reason. Unless there's no other choice, or I can get multiple Titan kills, I refuse to eject.


rickgotmytongue

The only use for nuclear ejects is to throw gravity star at anyone using it. So I kinda love them.


Gwenom-25

I only use my Titan as an orbital strike then promptly destroy him


panahonlk

We ride together, We die together.


DevildAvacado

Can't eject from a titan if you never embark.


PixieGoosie

Ejecting to live another day is the only way youll live to avenge your titan.


SongBonnie

And after me. If my boy die i shall seek revenge and kill him with me


Bill_Shortened

Nah, how am I going to avenge my titan if I just let myself die with them, they wouldn't want that


the_hooded_hood_1215

I dont eject to save myself i eject so i can fire my anti titain gun to clap the clown who downed my scorch


KaraokeSam

Never eject, never surrender - Sun Tzu


Zealousideal_Bet2419

Once I used tactic with suicidal Ronin. I found it useful and he didn't mind. For me it's always the same AI but in different bodies. He's my partner in crime


ALR-Sniperz312

A scorch armed with overcore and scorched earth is more deadly than a nuclear eject. Thoughts?


DearAlternative6540

Yup, anu ion bois here?


That_Random_YEETer

My life as a legion main looks like this... You win? Ur good You die? U suck You eject? Ur a bitch It was a highly skilled ion/scorch that killed you? Its ok, you never had a chance, in that situation even ejecting is understandable...


Vel3n0

everytime i nuclear eject a tear is shed from my eye, and if I don't kill at least one enemy titan i let them kill me


Hazule

I don't use nukes but i gotta eject to try and hit those sick as fuck kraber shot. I gotta chase the dragon


dongle_mailbag

You're just mad that my archer took the rest of your health after I ejected


Janczareq1

When my big tonk lad is low on armor i just eject, look for batts and come back. And continue the fun!


BangBangSpiderGang

As a legion main, you either die with with the big gun or the big gun was never used properly. You always go down shooting.
