The update sure made a difference in the co-op game we played last night.
1)The Titan seems a little more "intelligent" now, doesn't walk into the walll anymore, but needs to be more vicious.
2)The enemies were more in number, more aggressive, but I don't know if that was due to the patch, as the cgames are randomn everytime.
3)The gameplay felt much more frantic and fun due to the increased aggressiveness, and we had 4 titans where there used to be three earlier.
I had much more fun last night, it felt more like R1 single player due to the chaos! If it gets the speed and frantic feel of R1 SP by launch, then this Co-op will be the best thing to happen to a shooter

The Titan does walk around more, the Alpha Grim is also slightly faster and more aggressive, while the regular Grims are more spread out now. It's more fun because sometimes they are everywhere (instead of all bunched up together). The Titan should try to ram us. All the grims should have better path finding.
They are heading in the right direction. Hope to see even more improvement at launch.
Damn you guys with beta keys! I'm so jealous!
Would love to give it a go as well. Anyone know if there are some more european beta keys being handed out or where to get one?
Patsu (and anyone else that still plays RFOM):
Do you still play a lot of RFOM? It's a bit dull - not many people online so ranked can be difficult at times and 99.9% of all custom games are one-hit-kills which sucks, so I've been playing mostly private games lately... Perhaps you'd be up one evening for a few games as well (ranked or TDM if something)?
Cheers Phil

Ugh ! You should have said so earlier. I found 3 more beta code giveaway in GAF this afternoon and could have grabbed one for you. Quite a few people subscribed to Qore, pre-ordered, or received new code from PSU today.
You can create a US account to play. That's what Arwin did. I will look out for you too.
Yes, I still play R1 when R2 is down. I play only co-op on R2 now though.
The Titan down in the valley is smarter than the one in the lumber factory. It pushed us back to the top of the valley (We were squeezed into this narrow trail with 2 soldiers' shields in front to protect all of us
). We were too careless because we thought it's not going to move.Love_In_Rio

The next free beta code for me please...
Thanks Patsu! Very much appreciated!
I'm usually online with my US account anyway, but was under the impression that keys were locked to IP-ranges from that country? Damn, I should have tryed harder to get hold of a US beta key in that case....
My registration at GAF btw is still pending. Second attempt within 2 years for me... maybe I'm more lucky this time, I'm hearing it's quite difficult to be accepted as they get so many registrations...
I'll make a note to add you then! Thanks!
PS: If you're not too busy playing R2, I'm sure I'll be online sometime this weekend for some RFOM.
Cheers Phil

That is what I meant when I said the Titan is more "intelligent" now
! The whole co-op has a fresher and chaotic feel now, based on the session I had last night! I really hope they can fine tune it into R1 SP like quality by launch

I got the code from patsu, so its American, but I play on my UK account and my ps3 is Indian !
i don't think there's any restriction on the beta, I am playing since the day American beta started though I am not in America at all.

Arwin, you should be able to play (I think). The servers are getting hammered. I have to use "Find Games" instead of "Play" to get into games. In fact, I tried more than half an hour to get into just 2-3 games.
Today is bad because they gave out another new batch of code via PSU.

Ya ! that happens sometimes. I wasn't able to download the patch for 3 hours as the servers were congested with all the traffic.
BTW, wish to play with you guys but the timings never match!
I have been playing with our local crowd every night, helluva fun !

PSU -for some unknown reason- sent me a beta key. Couldn't resist of course. So I'm one of those to blame for server issues, although I didn't suffer many (only once to be exact).
Been playing only medic, lots of experience and great fun so far. Sometimes I find myself running around the map like crazy, trying to help out people who insist on going solo. Who would have known helping out others is so much fun? Especially when spec ops ignores medics, you have to alternate between attacking enemies and healing others, or when you are cornered and trying to bail out, keep attacking to survive even though you don't get the kill.
Titans have been smart enough to kill people frequently, so it's good. Stalker is dumb as it comes it seems, but 8 people trying to attack a stalker (or titan) from all directions still has an epic feeling, King Kong like epic feeling.
Best moments though, are when lots of enemies coming from everywhere, or when bosses are supported by many underlings, or the turret defense actions.
Been afraid to try out competitive mode or other classes, partially because carbine given to medic sucks so hard. I was never a fan of the carbine in R1, but at least it was useful. If medic's carbine is any representitive at all, I agree with all the complaints regarding the crosshair changes.
I also wish it was push-to-talk in coop, and free-talk with squad channels similar to R1, even though it's just 8 players. Sometimes noise and echo is just unbearable.
I will probably have many more problems with R2 but when all said and done, I expect R2 to be a big hit in the long run, if for nothing else for coop, despite mediocre reviews. It just has so much potential, not that it isn't fun now.
So tha_con (or anyone else), I better to be working for a deadline during (most of) the weekend, but I'll be free better part of today and tonight if you are up for some coop action.

I've been having the same problems and I'm beginning to wonder if those of us in the "first wave" have been down prioritized as far as game ranked games go. If that's the case I don't mind so much since between myself, my bro-in-law, and the 10 yr olds we've certainly got our moneys worth out of this free beta, but it would be nice if they gave us a heads up. I guess though in the current bitching environment that saying anything would just cause more bitching so why bother.
Played another 10 rounds last night, and really, I just can't stop praising it enough.
I guess it helps that I'm now good enough to go about 1.5:1 in every match for KDR, sometimes better. My buddy was expecting RFOM, hopped in his first game with me, got murdered, hated it. Played a few more games with me, got used to it, now he loves it. Fantastic!

Match making didn't work me either. I didn't even know it was functional before the patch.
