This is the second $10 DLC pack for Titanfall and also available as part of the Season Pass. Pushing the battle to the furthest reaches of the universe, Frontier's Edge introduces three exciting new maps including the isolated mining outpost of Dig Site, the exclusive beach resort of Haven and the mining hub on the side of a mountain known as Export. Dig Site Surrounded by sheer rock walls that offer natural protection against air assault, the site becomes a bloody ground war characterized by titan skirmishes over subtle elevation changes in the terrain, and a mix of short and medium-range engagements for pilots. Titans patrol the narrow pathways between the industrial processing buildings while pilots leap overhead, and an imposing rock saw the size of an overturned office building looms over the site providing cover and high ground for pilots. Haven An exclusive beach resort built on the edge of a massive crater lake, Haven normally caters to the wealthy elite of the Frontier. Pilots utilize the sheer walls of hotel skyscrapers to gain high ground while Titans take cover inside art galleries and luxury restaurants. The large interiors of some buildings can encourage discrete, pilot-only firefights, and Titans hold down strategic locations by engaging in between buildings and from the surrounding beach and roadway. Export The nearby mines fueled this large Militia settlement, an important exporting hub built on the side of a mountain that recalls the gold rush boom-towns from centuries earlier. Overshadowed by a massive armature that controls an offshore lock system for marine transport, Export caters to close-quarter, house-to-house combat for ground troops. Pilots use this to their advantage by using quick wall-hops on the close structures to gain speed and height, then engage enemies from the low rooftops. Titans can lock down sections of the town by leveraging natural choke points, and often fight up a steep incline that leads to a commanding view of the town below. As well, it ushers in the new Titanfall Black Market feature. This allows players to purchase Titan Insignias and Burn Cards using an in-game currency that can surprisingly not be bought with real-world monies. Players must instead earn credits through completing daily challenges and winning matches. |
