New video out by Manni talking about titans. They now have 150 upgradable levels.
Engine = 50 levels
Hull = 50 levels
Core = 50 levels
This doesn’t even include weapons. And I’m almost positive that pix will add mods to titans eventually. This all by the way is paid with new currency. So now we have to concentrate extreme time and resources into these giant bots while still trying to work on what we already have.
More stuff to upgrade! yay!!! ?

Mine will stay stock. I will not run it. Once I bot out with my regular hanger it will not be deployed.

If when accounting for the value of silver vs platinum, the cost per level is similar in to the current meta items, Then That platinum cost could be the equivalent of 2.5 billion silver, sounds about right for pixonic.

What the hell is hull/core? Does one increase damage and the other health? Or one is a combination of damage and health?
And this news is all fine and dandy, but we have no idea what the requirements are per level, how we can get platinum, if at all there will be currency conversion, etc etc.
The only thing I heard (from manni) is that the upgrades would be instant. There won't be an upgrade queue for titans. Acquiring the currency is the queue. This one piece of information alone is manni's validity IMO. If it doesn't come to be true, he can't be taken seriously. He said it in the test server video (arthur)

Maybe I’m wrong but this feels like a disaster. I'm sure that it will be mate. From what I can see from the videos/comments on here, meta bots can beat them up on the test server, no way will they let that continue. I also want my bridge on Springfield back, god knows what will happen to Moon.

They didn’t specify the name of the currency, just that there would be something new and upgrades were instant.

But I’m not in any rush to upgrade em, that’s for sure. W the skilless suckfest of leeches and PS, Pix has me on the ragged edge. Titans might finally be what saves me from wasting any more time. I need a good old fashion PvE dungeon crawler. Anyone old enough to remember Wizardry? What am I saying, of course your are. Was that originally on Apple II or Mac Plus first? These kids today have no true appreciation for the amazing graphics in these modern games. You haven’t lived until you’ve played 1-bit graphics on a 9” screen, lol. Oh, and had to swap floppies to load new levels.

I may have to hang up the towel. Ao Jun are bad enough as it is. Now there is going to be a premium flying giant Ao Jun. I'm not going to put up with that.

What they really need to do is make a separate game mode (for each one) that includes Titans. You'd have domination and you'd have dom with titans.
Also, they need to consider a one-off elimination mode with only 1 titan per player. I always thought of this as being a competitive outlet, but now with word that there are upgrades, competitive is out.

Oh, and had to swap floppies to load new levels. I remember the cassette loading era. Spend 30 min loading a game only to have it crash 10 mins in. Do the same thing again hoping it won't crash again only to have it crash again and again and again.

My prediction is that titans are not an addition but are here to eventually replace old bots and thus start a completely new cycle. They are also useful with slowing down the game because Pixonic is already having performance problems. I hope I'm wrong about this, but I think that eventually your entire old hangar will be useless and all currencies/ components you have accumulated will be worthless.

Don't worry you can buy all the platinum you want.
Maybe for the f2p they'll introduce a conversion that is a real good deal like the component conversion they promised would be so great.
Like, 1 platinum for 100 gold and only 10mm silver conversion cost. Ha.

These kids today have no true appreciation for the amazing graphics in these modern games. You havenât lived until youâve played 1-bit graphics on a 9â screen, lol. Oh, and had to swap floppies to load new levels. That was the first game my family bought for the Apple II C. It had 16 colors, but wizardly III wasn't that good looking and impossible for my pea brain at the time to finish. It had wire frame maze, and colorful pics of monsters (no animation i think), and they gave you 20x20 graph paper. No way i could solve the puzzles, find the stairs on each level, and reach the bottom of the dungeon lol. Btw, it was the first PTW nonsense and you needed to own wizardry I to play it so those companies have been 「wee-wee」s for decades now. How could you let a 10 year old kid down like that. Yea, if a good dungeon crawler comes out with some actual good farming and spells, i'm out. Same with a civ or sim type game. Prefer ultima since it was like minecraft of its time, you could do anything, bake bread! Used to make walls out of chests and bridges from pirate boats.
