Pixonic, if you don't give F2P, Pocket Change Players or even Dolphins decent options to get platinum then you're going to have hot mess on your hands as far as public relations. (The oil sheik's son, trust funder and software company president... the whales, will ofc just buy it) And it appears that every aspect of the Titans requires platinum, equip purchases and upgrades. I checked the black market chests, battle rewards and supply chests and platinum hasn't made it there yet. I'm sure this will change over time, but currently we're not given a lot of options to get platinum except a few daily tasks.... Or of course to buy platinum out right.... And looks like most of us won't be changing weapons on our titans any time soon...

Wait what weapons do the titans start with? Also platinum is way more shiny than gold and silver so it's obviously more expensive and rare to get.

It's really hard to say because stats are so scrambled these days until you break down actual DPS, burst length, etc. These are what you get on the "Kid". To buy both of these in the store is 400 platinum.

i am anxiously awaiting my first death squad of maxed out Titans... That can't happen, luckily. You've got fill your titan meter for it to allow the titan to be dropped. And it's not something that just easily get's filled, you gotta work at it.

Joopiter this actually looks a bit like gold did back in the day, with the obvious exception that you could win gold in match (so no platinum farming). It was a slow acquisition process. Since you only get 1 of these things, it probably should be a slow process, but as you noted, some will just buy their way to a maxed titan (or at least a significantly more powerful one). I will be watching that pay gap to see how much it affects the game. I'm hopeful it won't destroy things, but as I'm know to say "You can hope in one hand and crap in the other and see which gets filled quicker."

You can sell them, but since you've only got the one "kid" and his weapons, then you can't get the game to let you sell them. Since you've got to unequip the weapon to sell, it tells you that there's empty weapon slots when you hit the trash can button. I would bet you get good silver at least for them considering they're basically super heavies.

I wonder if the Upgrade task will be on every day. If so, pass on that, which leaves 25/day PT grinding. A month of grinding gets you the Dragon Titan. Then you can start the upgrades, lol.

First unpleasant surprise - I have 3 hangars, but only one titan, and they cant't be used in multiple hangars.
Not really surprised by this pix move but one of the videos (ithink 2nd dewstream) on titans showed otherwise.
Guess I have two hangars for 6pack league now, as they won't worth running in normal play for looong time...

Per Pixo's website:
"Currently, you can get Platinum from daily tasks, and we plan to add new sources for obtaining it in the future updates."
So I guess we'll have to wait at least until the next update.

Come on guys.. the update just hit the store and you already make some noise. They even said "currently it can be obtained in daily task and they're planning this can be obtained from other sources"

And have played a number where the Reds had 4 on the field at the same time and they were not even in squad.

At this rate, 25pt a day (and 10 of it is a pain to get), it would take a couple months. Ultimately I'd prefer 5 different Titans but at the rate of gain, is the flying giant worth the price of 2 and 1/3 a kid?

So I guess we'll have to wait at least until the next update. I fully expect that the only way to get the goods the first month or two will be to spend. Then like normal they will slowly add in ways for dolphins and then the F2P. When F2P start using them new OP Titans and gear hit. We all know this game. The new currency is so there is no choice but to spend if you want it now.

It sounds to me like you won’t be forced to play the Titan game if you so choose (as long as you have a hanger you don’t use that is).

I've only dropped the Titan twice in 10-11 matches, 4 of which I used the hangars without. They're weak right now, as virtually no one has upgraded them, and most haven't figgered out effective tactics, so they're falling left and right. Getting lots of "TITAN SLAYER" . The biggest issue I foresee is against maxed out death squads, and those are going to be losses anyway. We'll see how it shapes up.

Honestly, the titans are not bad at all. I was worried myself, but after becoming a multiple titan slayer per game it's just another bot that has it's strenghs and weakness. They can't play the peek a boo game from behind cover very well. They're too big to hide anywhere

What are they going to do, complain? Same old same old. Dash bots are the death of the game.... No I mean pursuer...Ares....Leech. Carry on.

$100 dollars to acquire 1 weapon, of course. bots undoubtedly cost more, and now enjoy 150 levels.
