Sadly theres no clan features in this game yet(?)
Could we make a list of TL players here so we can play as 6? Or is there already one?
Separate them into different regions as well for easy access

I think they're working on a fix for proper match-making.
Anyone playing on XB1?

We don't have one. I've just been adding people that send me friend requests.
I strongly recommend we all team up. Finished a couple rounds right now and got slaughtered both times. My team didn't even respond to my frustrated voice chat. This game is surprisingly, strongly team-oriented. I don't see anyone standing a chance as a "lone wolf" type of player.

Says you 
Once you take in the timings and get your aim up its actually quite easy to defend and attack given the movement advantage.
I am usually off assaulting a point by myself and usually get it.
Learning the wall movement is big, once people realize that hardpoint maps play more like quake on crack rather than cod, you'll see a marked improvement in your contributions to the team (aka sending players to terrible spawns).

This. I feel like once you get the hang of the movement system and know the maps, playing the lone wolf can be totally viable depending on the game type.
I was on the fence, and didn't play it in beta, but the game is fun. That fun is severely diminished by how shitty the matchmaking system is, there were a couple of non-campaign matches last night where the average level of my team was ~10 and the average level of the opposing team was ~30, and the results were fairly predictable. That shit is inexcusable and makes me not want to play a game that I think is a lot of fun, which is kind of silly.
I also suck hard at it, but I haven't played an FPS seriously since CS 1.6 and Battlefield 1942, so there's that.

I've been trying to. I know this is an integral aspect of the game and will affect my play positively, but I'm too focused on obtaining the objective to give it much thought. Private match lobbies would be a boon here; would love to learn the maps at my own pace offline.
EDIT: What I really meant was, it's not often that one guy can carry an entire team. Very difficult to do, in my opinion.

Rank will play less of a role in the future, but for now, yeah, it's a pretty good indicator of skill level since everyone started as a relative noob. Experience is key right now. 10 games played should handily beat 5 unless you're ex-MLG pro. 
Sooo I've learned that using pistols while Rodeo-ing is super effective.

It's always fun getting in on the ground floor for any game, where everyone sucks equally 
I was worried that playing as a pilot would be boring compared to playing as a Titan, but that is totally not the case. Usually don't drop my titan until there's an opportune moment.
Being so agile and always having a decent anti-titan weapon means as long as you know what you are doing, you can always be a threat.
One of the things I hated about CoD was that killstreaks just snowballed the game too hard towards the winning team, and were not fun. In Titanfall, titans are strong, but you need to know what you are doing to be effective. So many titans just wander between a set of tall buildings and get owned by sidewinders and grenades. Thoroughly enjoying it so far.

6 Pilot kills and 10 Titan kills in Last Titan Standing with a team of 5. Got this gem in rep.ly when I said in chat: "gggg."
+ Show Spoiler [Racism.] +stop being bad mannered you fucking nigger
TEAMWORK!!

After playing about 12 hours over the past few days, I regret buying this game. It's not that it's "bad", but it's too arcade-like for me. There's no real measure of skill, nor is there any tracking system for such. I can't even really make up my own because I can't see the stats of those I'm playing against (other than their level).
Also, I get lag spikes when I aim at other pilots sometimes, which basically means auto-death in an encounter.

Game feels and plays really solid, wall movement is fluid. Currently my aim is to master the wall movement since it often gives you the edge in firefights, bad players are outmaneuvered easily. Only thing which annoys me is the constant jump kick spam from some players.

I get the same feeling. I feel like my bullets connect a half-second later than they should, while theirs end up in me before I expect them to.
Something cool to note: your ammo and lethal equipment automatically and completely refills if you jump in a Titan and jump out. Not sure if it works just by jumping in and out, or if it only applies when your Titan dies.

So it's confirmed. What does everyone think? Bug, or intentional?
