Titan Meter Needs Adjustments
In order to gain a Titan in combat, you will need to kill a lot of people, especially around the objective points. Each kill is worth a certain percentage and if you play well enough you will earn a Titan to stomp around in. This is a frustrating concept as it only ensures the most skilled players will actually get to pilot one of the mechs in a match. The developers have confirmed that they will be adjusting the meter so it now fills up over time, but we still do not know the extent of this.
