I haven't spent too much time with this game (I'm on PC) so far (got to level 5 before having to go to work), but I'm loving the game play so far. Despite the big Mechs, I'm actually having more fun playing as my pilot for the most part. The freedom of movement is great & using my Titan to kill stuff when it drops in, then having it guard or follow, allows my pilot to rack up the kills.
At one point, I had climbed a huge tower that gave me a great vantage point over a large area of the map we were on. 3 enemy Titans were clustered together, so I called mine in & took out two of them. I put my Titan on guard mode and while it distracted the enemy Titan, I switched to my anti-Titan weapon & killed it. The enemy pilot ejected before it exploded though and I picked him off out of the air. Another enemy Titan engaged mine just after, so I jumped 10 stories onto its back and took it out. That Pilot jumped out and mine promptly stepped on them. My Pilot started taking fire so I jumped into my Titan, who grabbed me out of the air and put me in the cockpit, just as my Titan became doomed and I ejected - double jumping back onto the Tower I started on just to get blasted in the face with a shotgun.
Good times.
Its fairly thin on plot & multiplayer only, which would normally be huge turn offs for me, but the gameplay is just...fun. Highly recommend it.
