Bug Exploit 3.1.09

Amazing that it's taken over 2 years for some of these things to come to light. First the pilum overloading of the shields in 3 & 4, now beacon placement inside the titan. That's what keeps me coming back to 2142...

I had to laugh. The other night. I was the lone guy attacking the enemy titan at the time. I had halls 1 & 2 each loaded with a squad. I sat up in the entrance to 3 & 4, piluming the shields and being resupplied from the enemy supply boxes in corridor below. When 1 & 2 went boom, there were a couple guys asking how they were destroyed. I tried luring them to the forums to find the explanation. Not sure if it worked or not.

Oh totally, I was one of those squads in 1 or 2. I was wondering how the hell we defeated them in there until I realized the pilumed shield tactic - it was YOU! Nice work!
Dude, the guy who was defending corridor 1 was sooo pissed that we defeated his objective without him knowing. He like others called us a hack server - that's just what we get when he have such a high level of skills in TTP.
Hope to see that guy on the forum....

I wonder if the pilum thing was programmed in from the begining or if it was added in an update..... As i remeber titan assult became pointless with grenade spamming in hallway 1, and this countered that.

I'm guessing it was there all along as the whole grenade/rocket spam defense was obvious even from the very beginning.

What i want to know, is who was the first person to sit down, and shoot 14 Pilum shots at the shield, just to see if it did anything.

I'm sure it was someone bored while priming... It's the only weapon that registers damage when you shoot it at the shields... so I'd assume that once they saw that they just began firing away.

Well shields will weaken and fail if they absorb enough damage(wonder how many pilium shots it would take to take down the Titan shields). Hmm, transport full of engineers firing away at the enemy titan.

Ha, I would like to see the support guys score from resupplies after that round.
