Repawn’s Titanfall, the multiplayer shooter that sees soldiers and huge mechs (Titans) fighting side by side, gets its sixth update tomorrow. The biggest change is a new mode that omits the huge robots altogether, called Pilot Skirmish.

The new mode is an 8 versus 8 match, with no additional AI (artificial intelligence) soldiers, and no Titans. That makes it more like a traditional FPS multiplayer match, although the parkour-like abilities of the pilots means it will still be very fast. Respawn say Pilot Skirmish will not be included in ‘Variety Pack’ playlists, due to its difference in player size. Normal Titanfall matches have 6 human players.

Other changes in update 6 include new modes for colorblind players, and the ability to buy individual ‘burn cards’, which give you additional powers during games. Players will now no longer be penalized for joining a game late – if you do so and win, it counts in your stats, but if you lose, that will not appear on your record.
