There’s nothing quite like the moment in Titanfall when you finally call down your giant mech, sprint across the battlefield, and leap into the cockpit. It’s robot fightin’ time!
Lately I’ve gotten a bit obsessed with style, specifically with trying to climb into my titan in the coolest way possible. So far, I’d say the coolest way I’ve found to embark is the top-down approach, as demonstrated here:
This is a pretty basic execution, all things considered — I could imagine someone rocking an extended parkour run, calling their titanfall mid wall-run, then leaping off of a tall building just as it lands and doing a perfect top-down embark. Bonus points if they also land their titan on an enemy titan. (Someone on the internet who’s better than I am at Titanfall, please pull that off!)
Regardless, I submit that as much as I love the “slide through the legs reverse-embark,” the “top-down embark” is the most stylish way to get into your titan.
Final note: Similar to FarmVille, I’m finding it very difficult to talk about titan-entry maneuvers without sounding like I’m talking about sex.

Double jump, call Titan, 360 no scope then embark.
Oh wait! It’s not Call of Duty, the excessive aim-assist in the Sniper rifles is gone, so it might actually take some skill to do now.
Titanfall is not a game that requires any skill at all.
My current favourite is when you run at your titan head on, jump, and let it catch you and shove you in the cockpit.
Is it weird that i find it extremely cute when the titan picks you up of the ground?
i mean, as cute as a giant mech can be.
I find it eerily similar that they relationship between the pilot and the Titan is akin to that of the Little Sister and Big Daddy.
I’d say that’s on purpose, and I reckon they’ve done a great job with it.
Last night while watching me play my wife commented that she’d seen me board my Titan five times and done it differently each time. I was doing that on purpose just to see if she did notice. I think she’s hooked now, but she hasn’t had a chance to play it yet.
…and probably never will 🙂
Your lucky to have a wife who’d want to actually play it 🙂
I think the best Titan entry is when you slide through the Titans legs into its hand then gently placed into the cockpit.
I always enjoy a rear entry
Ok just got back from a titanfall Lan that started yesterday lunch…,awesome Lan awesome game…,,must sleep now
Rounds are too short though
I like the rounds are short – means i can fire it up for a quick play without penalty, unlike BF4 that can go for an hour long Round!
