"Arrogance, that's the problem with most pilots, makes you blind..." - Blisk to Valk Blisk was right. That IMC pilot was arrogant and overconfident. Unlike the SRS pilot which was silent and quick with his victory over Bangalore, the IMC pilot was too busy being cocky and idiotic, ultimately causing him to lose. He started off fine but it got to his head. This is also proven in Titanfall 2 when APEX pilots are overcocky and overconfident due to their status, they underestimated Jack Cooper and the SRS entirely, and all of them paid the price.
@magnumbeefus that was one of cooper's sim pod trainings with lastimosa. Never during that did lastimosa say he was certified, in fact he got ejected early because there was a fight on typhon, in which he was still a grunt. Only during the seige of the imc fortress did Sarah Briggs say jack (who was an ACTING pilot before she said this) earned his his pilot certification.
@Isfet Solaris but Bangalore stopped wearing a helmet when she became a first class sergeant, I do think it also probably recognize friendlies by face ID of something especially with how much advanced technology is during that Time. We don’t actually know if they were consider enemies at least not bangalore, since its jackson who was in authority to give orders to made them retreat he was the lieutenant higher than her in rank, the Pilot didn’t had any problems with her at first until she step between him & jackson. She probably wasn’t considered traitors but more AWOL as it says in an event and in pathfinder quest book. I do think you are right but I do believe this is the closest explication to why he missed with smart pistol
@Lovely Yes and no. You're correct that it doesn't lock friendlies. However, lore wise, it works off of an FoF tag system - and they were both considered traitors by the time he was firing, meaning it *would* lock them. Not to mention that the tag is located in the helmet (at least for grunts in TF2) and neither of them was wearing a helmet. And we know the IMC has no problem shooting neutrals.
I love that they are still loyal to the "On the battlefield to the frontier, the Pilot is the true dominant force.". it's amazing to be able to see it from the grunt's perspective.
@Synergy That Smart Pistol Wasn't A Militia Pistol So It Wouldn't Look On To A Registered IMC Target. I Have Lost Hope People Will Understand This Simple Thing, I'm Going To Get Some Milk And Touch Some Grass.
Pilots are like Spartans from Halo, they’re the most respected and honored types of soldiers bringing hope and fear into the battlefield Titanfall 3 is definitely needed right now.
@Bear Queen no normal human can uppercut people into the air either, god I genuinely despise you for starting a sentence like that. I don’t think you realize how much effort it takes to knock people out with one punch consistently and have them go that far.
@DarkShat307 I....you realize actual humans can do that, right? Hit someone with enough force and angle that they go flying? Like, that's not even high-level martial arts stuff or anything.
I love how this reveals so much info on her tact, ult, and her heirloom. The smoke during the battle with her supperior is what helped her find him, making her realize how important smoke can be. The missles are quite obvious, seeing as she sees them do so much damage, and seeing as she now has the ship, she might as well use them. As for her heirloom, it's a pilots knife, which I really love. Best story so far!
Seeing this tells me two things 1) The IMCs pilots seem to be heavily underqualified for the job as he fired the smart pistol BEFORE it locked into banglore 2) jump kits seem to have gotten a massive upgrade as pilots can fly now apparently. Which kind of makes Valk's whole "look I can fly" ability seem not nearly as special.
He never used a smart pistol though? The only two pistols didn't have a lock-on sight like smart pistols did in Titan Fall 2. So wouldn't the pistols just be normal pistols?
However this all depends on the type of pilot. The absolute elite (Jack Cooper, Briggs, 6-4) are all part of the SRS, and sport Vanguards. Your average militia pilot will still fair against an IMC pilot in a Titan or Pilot one on one, but not multiple. Only the SRS are skilled enough to take out squads and squads of enemy pilots and Titans, or take out their only equal (Apex Predators, as they are the IMC equivalent, although they are mercenaries).
Lore wise, the Militia had vastly superior Pilots And Titans (Vanguard class), as per their principle of quality over quantity, thus producing skilled pilots and the advanced Vanguard class titans. Due to the availability of troops, the IMC are expendable and less trained. A militia pilot can take out squads of enemy titans with just their vanguard. In another trailer, it shows Jack and BT on a lone mission, surviving against countless titans due to their skill. And this is all represented when in game 5 pilots ( The 6-4 and you) assualt and commandeer an entire IMC battleship, the Malta, after wiping out everyone, including the entirety of Marines on that ship. 5 pilots. Just 5.
Na i don't think so ...titanfall 2 is on consol not really dead mp, but respawn has done great work with the sp, if someone have never played the titanfall 2 sp yet ...do it if its on sale , you really feel that vince and zapella which created the Modern warfare saga created the sp and if they create for titanfall 3 a 10h - 15h+ campaign with some exploring, some planets which a player can choose with side mission i would buy it, cuz there are enough old IW devs which know to make a good sp or showed with fallen order they are able to create more like a 6h action campaign like mw.
6:03 I know everyone is talking bad about this pilot but they have to admit that melee was incredible the only reason they won was because the pilot was overconfident
@J Sabere the blade through the chest was for dramatic effect. The writers wanted her to win that fight so if your looking for technicality, she could have easily put the blade through the pilots neck or some other weaker part of the armor. He was being held down so she could have easily put it wherever she wanted.
@Ramon Ramon She’s pilot material, against a pilots with a full kit and armor that she somehow forced a blade through the thickest portion of - the chest plate. Yeah, I’m calling absolutely BS since she got Merc’d by the frontier pilot.
This Pilot would've taken them out if it wasn't for his overconfidence. In war, you need to take out your enemies quickly and effectively. Really goes to show that Pilots are one of the most scariest soldiers to go up against.
@Brady Johnson Eh, she re-established contact with the IMC as a loyalist. Either they re-added her to their "don't shoot" database, or he disabled auto targeting. Considering she was standing right beside the dude he was about to execute, would've been kinda awkward if the auto-target shot an ally.
@Greathorned0wl I wouldn't doubt if it was possible to "overclock" your jumpkit at the risk of damaging it or it could be modified to work like that as the jumpkits in apex are used for the first drop and only a few times in game
Keep in mind some of these events are taking place as Jack and BT are doing their stuff. So we could've met a lot of the characters before we even knew them.
Clearly an amateur pilot or a veteran who has become overconfident to the point of losing sight of the objective and became a believer in the overblown myth of a pilot. He was cocky and toyed with his targets. Basically incompetence through either ignorance or lack of experience or through complacency in their own abilities. He did the cardinal sin: he gloated. That is just inviting failure.
remember, bangalore was a pilot-in-training who never became a pilot only because the war had ended. Jackson was already a pilot, a cqb pilot, he looks like a grunt because cqb pilots dont wear the standard pilot helmets so they can blend in with infantry
You know I really respect how much story they can tell in 8 minutes. These SFTO shorts are always so well done. I felt like I watched at least 15 mins of a story and was shocked at how short it actually was. Brilliant.
this is absolutely awesome and just gave me inspiration for something. Since you won't fix Titanfall 2 imagine if there was a Titanfall 3 which was after the war or just before the end which mixes the people of the frontier (like the people in the animation and the apex legends) and the IMC's, Militia's, Apex Predators, Vinson Dynamics, Hammond Robotics, ECT. That would be absolutely awesome, as well as that we would find out what happened to BT (because of the end credits scene of Titanfall 2) and if Jack meets him again then from that point it would expand for e.g. the people of the frontier trying to regain what they've lost, the Apex Predators expanding and being hired by someone else or the IMC again, Ash alive and leading Vinson dynamics (because why would a simulacrum have they're main core get destroyed in a fight with jack and BT), IMC doing bad stuff like in this animation, militia trying to stop them and maybe Bangalore helping, Hammond Robotics still developing new titans and tech, ECT. That's just the tip of the ice berg, if the whole community talked about this we could make the whole story ourselves and it has potential to be a massive story. I could go on and on and on but one of the best parts would be playing from 2 perspectives, Jack Cooper & BT-7274 and the people of the frontier, playing from an apex perspective and a Titanfall perspective will completely break the records. There's lots of other ideas I have too but Respawn please think bout it, the reason why Titanfall 2 failed wasn't even your fault, EA just decided to release in-between COD and Battlefield like the morons they are but if they didn't it would've blown up insanely, so if you get EA to consider this idea and tell them all the positives they might agree because it's also part apex which they'll love, you can also learn from the mistakes of Titanfall like the smart pistol and tone. i still can't even imagine the whole Titanfall universe put together it just blows my mind. i think you get the idea of what im saying, if you see and read this post please discuss it at respawn as apex views on youtube are going down so players arent interested and titanfall 2 is still ddosed luckily we have northstar client but even though the fan base has never left the amazing game, console players still can't play and it would be awesome to also have something new because releasing this idea would bring apex players back in and titanfall fans would go wild in this idea (if it will be 2 persectives) will give apex a campaign and show apex players the movement of titanfall. and if you don't, Apex will continue to loose popularity and titanfall will be at a standstill as it always has been (which i blame EA for), so basically things will end up quite bad. Also you should ask the community what they would think about an Apex Legends Titanfall 3 type game, they'll probably have the same answer as me right now. before you ask the community that you should probably make more of these fire animations to show apex player what Titanfall actually is. and if you do want to release it TELL EA TO REALEASE IT A NORMAL TIME AND NOT AT THE WORST TIME POSSIBLE LIKE THE MORONS THAT THEY ARE.
Bangalore got the settlement destroyed and almost lost her brother because she didn't know when to back off from a fight. A lesson we could all stand to remember with pub randos.
I know it seems odd for two imc grunts to beat a fully trained, likely top pilot, but we can’t really say Anita and Jackson are regular grunts. Both come from a long line of IMC soldiers and are likely trained from near birth to fight, which is more than the average soldier would be. And I wouldn’t be surprised if both were skilled enough to become pilots but chose not to because of their family history as regular soldiers.
@Andrew Cruz we barely saw him serving as a Pilot or most of his time on the field and he wouldn’t be alive if he wasn’t that skilled, like did you saw how he fought those mercenaries in his story from the outlands not even a bullet rub his skin and he didn’t had any Pilot gear or weapon
Jackson wasn’t a grunt in that time, he was a certified titan Pilot. Bangalore was basically an uncertified Pilot because she got the Training exactly like her brother but didn’t get her certification before they went AWOL
I mean if you look up the lore on a pilots you will see just how much better they are than any normal human pilots aren't just incredibly gifted fighters they also have reaction times on par with Spartans from halo which is literally within the microseconds
Not to be that guy, but being 30 and finally watching characters that look like me have well written and thought out, emotional narratives in a game as big as apex is overwhelming. Thank you Respawn.
@SlayerofdarknssDMT She completed it, but the war ended shortly after, also being a pilot doesn't mean she can't be in the apex games. Ash was part of the apex predators.
@Aiden V I don't think she's ever finished it cause she wouldn't be in the apex games if she did And as we've seen with Jack pilot training starts off with a simulation
Heck yeah, gotta love that pilot action, even though the pilot in this case was too cocky to use the smart pistol and the literal cloak and dagger tactic properly, that fist fight, assisted by the jump kit was great. But uhm, they are called "jump kit" for a reason. Those things aren't full on jetpacks, at most able to be modified to keep a pilot hovering in the air, but no full on valkyrie style flying. Regardless, still cool to see them animated in action again and in this style no less.
I also wanna point out that that pilot was invisible for a long time in Titanfall 2 it's oy active for a few seconds but I'm this trailer he was cloaked for half the fight I don't know if that's intentional or a mistake
i mean, most of the other tools of pilots are like personal mods or repurposing of other gear. what's to say instead of a grapple this particular pilot got a lot more power for his jump kit?
I really love seeing the war from a Grunts POV. In Titanfall you see a Titan as another obstacle but as a Grunt it's a walking death machine. Pilots are also much scarier since they operate on an almost super human level
@Betito117 dude, in titanfall 2 you play as a grunt, that gets made a pilot just taking the helmet of a dead pilot and linking to his Titan, Why are people sayung that pilots Are super humans?? titanfall 2 jack cooper is a grunt in that game, and became a pilot
@Skittalz No one even said they were superhuman but you. They clearly said "superhuman *LEVEL."* You're arguing against a statement that wasn't even made and still being wrong. L.
I think Bangalore was even on her way to becoming a pilot during the war, but one, Cooper obviously stopped a large section of the war before she became one and 2. this happened
I love seeing one man army characters, like the pilots from an outside perspective. It really reminders you how a much of a juggernaut you are when you play as them.
Well, on the ground - yes, you are extremely powerful and pretty much the very top of the food and command chain. But you are still not invincible - there are other ones like you on the battlefield, Anti-Titan weapons do significant damage, and the ending of TF2 shows very clearly what will happen to you when a ship in the orbit manages to hit you D: ...but then Lastimosa in a ~half dead Vanguard managed to punch a full-ham Ronin to death, soo... yeah xD Pilot's skill is everything.
Love it, but now this makes me question why her passive ability doesn't give her sight in her smoke since she can detect subtle changes in the smoke. It wouldn't even be hard to code since they have a similar thing with Nox Vision passive on Caustic
It's cool they made her and her brother IMC soldiers and not militia considering we played as Militia in Titanfall 2, one thing I like about Titanfall universe is we get to see both sides as human and monsters and not one bad one good though the IMC did have some messed up people
that plot armor when a smart pistol misses and others man a fall like that would have broken her spine , then the leg of her brother would have been burned seriously from the jump kit of that pilot as and so forth man rewatching this im just happy they showed how awesome and strong real pilots are )
I really like that this shows where she got her alternate and ultimate abilities from. The airstrike came from the IMC ship that attacked and the smokes are presumably because she figured out that’s how you counter the pilots cloaking ability.
@Stormy_478 it makes sense. This is before the games. So she took the pilots ship for herself and that’s what she uses as her ultimate. Double time instinct came from the pilot fight and all her years fighting in the field. Smokes came from her taking inspiration from her fight with the pilot.
They should really give us a limited time mode that is like 2 teams vs one pilot. Something along those lines. Give the pilot their choice of loadout while we scrounge and make their ultimate the smart gun.
Anyone else notice the Commander’s name at 3:27? Scryer. Like the leaked Legends’ name. I feel it’d be interesting to see an IMC superior in the game, ESPECIALLY the one who sent in the Pilot who destroyed the peaceful community Newcastle helped build.
Most militia pilots take things serious. I couldn't bring myself to forgive Bangalore for risking the civilians safety. But a second chance is always open for everyone
Pilot should have won, plot armor really saved them. With all the augmentations the pilots receive the kick to the head would’ve been enough. Maybe one day we can get Titanfall again
I am thinking WAY to deep into this but I have a theory..... That the IMC pilot was yellow because in Titanfall 2, yellow is a main colour in the colourblind mode. I suppose this could be a metaphor for the fact that Bangalore didn't hate the IMC like everyone else. Again I'm thinking way too into this
The fight scene was quite cool, it worked surprisingly well with the cell-shading ! Pilots are still the coolest thing in the Titanfall/Apex universe...
Also after watching it some times I really like the music (like in the other stories from the outlands), especially 7:51 when a short moment of "MacAllans Endgame" from Titanfall 1 played
@Dreel 37 of course they are, they are kind of superhuman but not that strong, a couple teams of grunts can take one down but not with the number with 1 digit
I know they were basically the bad guys in this story but PILOTS are so cool :o
Last question is how she got away from ION
indeed
The one that nearly put her down is my hero. The one that got bodied at the end is part of the faction we fight in Titanfall
Agreed
But if bangalore is on the side of IMC... wouldn't that make her a part lf the bad guys in the lote? Idk I only know some of the titanfall 2 lore
"Arrogance, that's the problem with most pilots, makes you blind..." - Blisk to Valk
Blisk was right. That IMC pilot was arrogant and overconfident. Unlike the SRS pilot which was silent and quick with his victory over Bangalore, the IMC pilot was too busy being cocky and idiotic, ultimately causing him to lose. He started off fine but it got to his head.
This is also proven in Titanfall 2 when APEX pilots are overcocky and overconfident due to their status, they underestimated Jack Cooper and the SRS entirely, and all of them paid the price.
@magnumbeefus that was one of cooper's sim pod trainings with lastimosa. Never during that did lastimosa say he was certified, in fact he got ejected early because there was a fight on typhon, in which he was still a grunt. Only during the seige of the imc fortress did Sarah Briggs say jack (who was an ACTING pilot before she said this) earned his his pilot certification.
Except for blisk and ash, cause they are still alive, I mean like ash is sort of alive except it's not her body thats alive its the robot
@Egg Cooper didn't get certified until the end he was just trained by lastimosa, that's why they were going to unlink him from BT
@Isfet Solaris but Bangalore stopped wearing a helmet when she became a first class sergeant, I do think it also probably recognize friendlies by face ID of something especially with how much advanced technology is during that Time. We don’t actually know if they were consider enemies at least not bangalore, since its jackson who was in authority to give orders to made them retreat he was the lieutenant higher than her in rank, the Pilot didn’t had any problems with her at first until she step between him & jackson. She probably wasn’t considered traitors but more AWOL as it says in an event and in pathfinder quest book. I do think you are right but I do believe this is the closest explication to why he missed with smart pistol

I love that they are still loyal to the "On the battlefield to the frontier, the Pilot is the true dominant force.".
it's amazing to be able to see it from the grunt's perspective.
@bananer it happens my guy
@bananer with a smart pistol, MISSED with a smart pistol
@Synergy That Smart Pistol Wasn't A Militia Pistol So It Wouldn't Look On To A Registered IMC Target.
I Have Lost Hope People Will Understand This Simple Thing, I'm Going To Get Some Milk And Touch Some Grass.
@bananer He Meant The Militia Pilot
In the beginning yes but in the end SPOILERS WARNING
to grants killed a pilot ita ridicules
I can’t imagine how long it took to organize the lore that connects titanfall and apex
@Bo Chapman wasn't Titanfall 3 cancelled?
@WinterHornetRaccoon 2 grunts top of the class who were about to graduate as pilots? What are you saying ?
@Sleepy Boi we’ll find out.
@Bo Chapman dude I don’t think tita fall 3 is ever coming
@Ataraxia Except In This Case The Hobbit Was More Successful Than The Lord Of The Rings
Pilots are like Spartans from Halo, they’re the most respected and honored types of soldiers bringing hope and fear into the battlefield
Titanfall 3 is definitely needed right now.
@DarkShat307 it's not impossible.
They cancelled TF3 sadly. Maybe Apex will bring it in.
@Bear Queen no normal human can uppercut people into the air either, god I genuinely despise you for starting a sentence like that. I don’t think you realize how much effort it takes to knock people out with one punch consistently and have them go that far.
@DarkShat307 I....you realize actual humans can do that, right? Hit someone with enough force and angle that they go flying?
Like, that's not even high-level martial arts stuff or anything.
@Bear Queen they literally punch people multiple feet away from them, they are superhuman
I love the way pilots are portrayed as villains too, we usually had militia pilots. Here the sides are flipped. Amazing storytelling.
@StarkSpider24 FKG GLORY TO THE 6-4!!!
Yeah but it takes longer to connect to titanfall 2 servers
@Titangamerhd IMC FOR THE WIN
@StarkSpider24 And The Good And Bad Is On Both Sides
@HECU not making a logi squad Well It's Not As Simple As "Just Mercs" Some Merc Groups Were Militia (6-4) Aligned And Others IMC Aligned (Apex)
For the people saying they defeated a pilot remember that that pilot missed while using a smart pistol
@Johnny Lee what's the problem?
Must’ve been a titan fall 1 smart pistol
That IMC Pilot Brings Shame To The Whole IMC.
I wonder how Scryers going to get implemented-
I love how this reveals so much info on her tact, ult, and her heirloom. The smoke during the battle with her supperior is what helped her find him, making her realize how important smoke can be. The missles are quite obvious, seeing as she sees them do so much damage, and seeing as she now has the ship, she might as well use them. As for her heirloom, it's a pilots knife, which I really love. Best story so far!
But, we didn’t get to see her passive. 😢
@Hi you’re totally welcome
@Lovely Darkness thanks for repeating what I said
@Hi it is not a data knife at all, they are they’re own variety of blade
Isn't a pilot knife a data knife tho? That certainly doesn't look like a data knife
Seeing this tells me two things
1) The IMCs pilots seem to be heavily underqualified for the job as he fired the smart pistol BEFORE it locked into banglore
2) jump kits seem to have gotten a massive upgrade as pilots can fly now apparently. Which kind of makes Valk's whole "look I can fly" ability seem not nearly as special.
He never used a smart pistol though? The only two pistols didn't have a lock-on sight like smart pistols did in Titan Fall 2. So wouldn't the pistols just be normal pistols?
They fly now????
However this all depends on the type of pilot. The absolute elite (Jack Cooper, Briggs, 6-4) are all part of the SRS, and sport Vanguards. Your average militia pilot will still fair against an IMC pilot in a Titan or Pilot one on one, but not multiple. Only the SRS are skilled enough to take out squads and squads of enemy pilots and Titans, or take out their only equal (Apex Predators, as they are the IMC equivalent, although they are mercenaries).

Just 5.
I think the smart pistol didnt lock on because they were IMC soldiers
Seeing ion in this literally brought a smile to my face. Great to see respawn hasn’t forgotten about those titans
WHERE????
I would say they have forgotten about it, the game is literally impossible to play rn
Na i don't think so ...titanfall 2 is on consol not really dead mp, but respawn has done great work with the sp, if someone have never played the titanfall 2 sp yet ...do it if its on sale , you really feel that vince and zapella which created the Modern warfare saga created the sp and if they create for titanfall 3 a 10h - 15h+ campaign with some exploring, some planets which a player can choose with side mission i would buy it, cuz there are enough old IW devs which know to make a good sp or showed with fallen order they are able to create more like a 6h action campaign like mw.
@woops never
Or those pilots, I wonder when titanfall 3 comes out
6:03 I know everyone is talking bad about this pilot but they have to admit that melee was incredible the only reason they won was because the pilot was overconfident
Fool her once, Coma. Fool Bangalore twice with the same trick… Just wasn’t gonna happen.
@J Sabere the blade through the chest was for dramatic effect. The writers wanted her to win that fight so if your looking for technicality, she could have easily put the blade through the pilots neck or some other weaker part of the armor. He was being held down so she could have easily put it wherever she wanted.
@Ramon Ramon pilot material not a pilot + any other pilot would’ve soloed
@Ramon Ramon She’s pilot material, against a pilots with a full kit and armor that she somehow forced a blade through the thickest portion of - the chest plate. Yeah, I’m calling absolutely BS since she got Merc’d by the frontier pilot.
This Pilot would've taken them out if it wasn't for his overconfidence.

🤓
@ClutchKickッ I mean, the jump kit was working as a jet pack. I guess respawn forgot how pilots work.
@The Big Enchilada the smart pistol only targets enemies, bangalore was a considerate of the IMC
The effect of the visor being the last visible thing of the pilot before it disappears makes me feel feelings I’ve never felt before.
It gives me predator vibes
You should chek out Gantz if you liked that
Intimidation?
Ayo?? 🤨 but like yea me too
Keep in mind some of these events are taking place as Jack and BT are doing their stuff. So we could've met a lot of the characters before we even knew them.
@Oceyeris proves my point even more lol
@Fluffybum204 3 years after specifically
@Charlie Hansen the apex games could have just taken 18 years to start up
Literally the imc lost soon after Jack and BT's adventure
Na jack and bt were doin their stuff 18 years before apex games so it wouldn't exactly be possible
Clearly an amateur pilot or a veteran who has become overconfident to the point of losing sight of the objective and became a believer in the overblown myth of a pilot. He was cocky and toyed with his targets. Basically incompetence through either ignorance or lack of experience or through complacency in their own abilities.
He did the cardinal sin: he gloated. That is just inviting failure.
@Marian Mechkov wdym? he made a valid point.
bro tf are you saying, stop trynna sound smart
Clearly an overconfident veteran that lauded over the fact he was going to take out a legendary family.
remember, bangalore was a pilot-in-training who never became a pilot only because the war had ended. Jackson was already a pilot, a cqb pilot, he looks like a grunt because cqb pilots dont wear the standard pilot helmets so they can blend in with infantry
i like how she only defeated the pilot when he was injured, and his jumpkit damaged. it just goes to show how powerful and trained they are.
copium
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
@EdG revenant wouldn't be able to solo an outlander pilot especially with a titan.
Ash died to a grunt with pilot training.
Ash died to a Grunt with Pilot training
@sw4g cooper was literally just a grunt a week before the campaign escelated less then that from what i remeber
You know I really respect how much story they can tell in 8 minutes. These SFTO shorts are always so well done. I felt like I watched at least 15 mins of a story and was shocked at how short it actually was. Brilliant.
Just to be clear that was an IMC pilot right?If so,imagine what an SRS pilot would’ve done to Bangalore and her bro💀
So basically the story we’ve been told so far and Bangalore’s loyalty to the IMC have mostly been a cover for her brother? Neat
@I offended you didn’t I ? i’ll give you credit. The animations are pretty solid:
Some cover for my brothers- gibby

this is absolutely awesome and just gave me inspiration for something.
Since you won't fix Titanfall 2 imagine if there was a Titanfall 3 which was after the war or just before the end which mixes the people of the frontier (like the people in the animation and the apex legends) and the IMC's, Militia's, Apex Predators, Vinson Dynamics, Hammond Robotics, ECT. That would be absolutely awesome, as well as that we would find out what happened to BT (because of the end credits scene of Titanfall 2) and if Jack meets him again then from that point it would expand for e.g. the people of the frontier trying to regain what they've lost, the Apex Predators expanding and being hired by someone else or the IMC again, Ash alive and leading Vinson dynamics (because why would a simulacrum have they're main core get destroyed in a fight with jack and BT), IMC doing bad stuff like in this animation, militia trying to stop them and maybe Bangalore helping, Hammond Robotics still developing new titans and tech, ECT. That's just the tip of the ice berg, if the whole community talked about this we could make the whole story ourselves and it has potential to be a massive story. I could go on and on and on but one of the best parts would be playing from 2 perspectives, Jack Cooper & BT-7274 and the people of the frontier, playing from an apex perspective and a Titanfall perspective will completely break the records.
There's lots of other ideas I have too but Respawn please think bout it, the reason why Titanfall 2 failed wasn't even your fault, EA just decided to release in-between COD and Battlefield like the morons they are but if they didn't it would've blown up insanely, so if you get EA to consider this idea and tell them all the positives they might agree because it's also part apex which they'll love, you can also learn from the mistakes of Titanfall like the smart pistol and tone.
i still can't even imagine the whole Titanfall universe put together it just blows my mind.
i think you get the idea of what im saying, if you see and read this post please discuss it at respawn as apex views on youtube are going down so players arent interested and titanfall 2 is still ddosed luckily we have northstar client but even though the fan base has never left the amazing game, console players still can't play and it would be awesome to also have something new because releasing this idea would bring apex players back in and titanfall fans would go wild in this idea (if it will be 2 persectives) will give apex a campaign and show apex players the movement of titanfall.
and if you don't, Apex will continue to loose popularity and titanfall will be at a standstill as it always has been (which i blame EA for), so basically things will end up quite bad.
Also you should ask the community what they would think about an Apex Legends Titanfall 3 type game, they'll probably have the same answer as me right now.
before you ask the community that you should probably make more of these fire animations to show apex player what Titanfall actually is.
and if you do want to release it TELL EA TO REALEASE IT A NORMAL TIME AND NOT AT THE WORST TIME POSSIBLE LIKE THE MORONS THAT THEY ARE.
I hope they see this and truly take it to heart! Good luck!
Man I love these back stories of every legend it's like a movie.
Necesitamos más historias así. Ojala cuenten pronto la de Mirage.
This. Was. Legendary.
From Beginning to end.
To the Graphics, story line,
and even Sound Effects.
@cnmmd qiuoo Absolutely.
But it was Worth the wait
Feels like her story should've been one of the first 3 told to us.
Imagine if pilots could fly like this guy, that would be insane
Bangalore got the settlement destroyed and almost lost her brother because she didn't know when to back off from a fight. A lesson we could all stand to remember with pub randos.
@TheLastHoward Everyone has a different play style. What you find boring others find fun, it’s not objective.
Agreed
@khalil tob uh no
This needs to be a loading screen message before matches
I legitimately got the chills when the pilot first appeared.
I know it seems odd for two imc grunts to beat a fully trained, likely top pilot, but we can’t really say Anita and Jackson are regular grunts. Both come from a long line of IMC soldiers and are likely trained from near birth to fight, which is more than the average soldier would be.
And I wouldn’t be surprised if both were skilled enough to become pilots but chose not to because of their family history as regular soldiers.
@Lovely Yes I know but in terms of other pilots….
@Andrew Cruz we barely saw him serving as a Pilot or most of his time on the field and he wouldn’t be alive if he wasn’t that skilled, like did you saw how he fought those mercenaries in his story from the outlands not even a bullet rub his skin and he didn’t had any Pilot gear or weapon
@Lovely He was a low tier pilot
Jackson wasn’t a grunt in that time, he was a certified titan Pilot. Bangalore was basically an uncertified Pilot because she got the Training exactly like her brother but didn’t get her certification before they went AWOL
I mean if you look up the lore on a pilots you will see just how much better they are than any normal human pilots aren't just incredibly gifted fighters they also have reaction times on par with Spartans from halo which is literally within the microseconds
Tienen que hacer una serie de televisión con el estilo de arte
Lo ameeeeee 😭😭😭😭
Not to be that guy, but being 30 and finally watching characters that look like me have well written and thought out, emotional narratives in a game as big as apex is overwhelming. Thank you Respawn.
Imagine being so racist that you need a character to look like you to feel happy. Just shows how simple minded some people are.
@Curiosity This just confirms to me that people don’t respect Bangalore too much because she isn’t pretty nor feminine.
@Timi Sumonu Because I am racist
Why u gotta make it about race bro
This is amazing, my favorite story from Apex right now.
I love how Bangalore was nothing but a grunt to that pilot. Hes like: "Oh, look, free points".
And yet she bodied him
@SlayerofdarknssDMT the creator of Titanfall said himself that they don’t have augmentations
@Aiden V well then she's one of the best
@SlayerofdarknssDMT She completed it, but the war ended shortly after, also being a pilot doesn't mean she can't be in the apex games. Ash was part of the apex predators.
@Aiden V I don't think she's ever finished it cause she wouldn't be in the apex games if she did
And as we've seen with Jack pilot training starts off with a simulation
Heck yeah, gotta love that pilot action, even though the pilot in this case was too cocky to use the smart pistol and the literal cloak and dagger tactic properly, that fist fight, assisted by the jump kit was great. But uhm, they are called "jump kit" for a reason. Those things aren't full on jetpacks, at most able to be modified to keep a pilot hovering in the air, but no full on valkyrie style flying. Regardless, still cool to see them animated in action again and in this style no less.
I also wanna point out that that pilot was invisible for a long time in Titanfall 2 it's oy active for a few seconds but I'm this trailer he was cloaked for half the fight I don't know if that's intentional or a mistake
i mean, most of the other tools of pilots are like personal mods or repurposing of other gear. what's to say instead of a grapple this particular pilot got a lot more power for his jump kit?
I think it's cool too see that not all pilots are unnatural killing machines but indeed can be killed if you have enough training
@EdG no they do actually have pilot training or at least Jackson does they just aren't certified because pilots are just on another level
@EdG cooper was uncertified in TF2 campaign and Bangalore is still uncertified but got the training and experience
No not with enough training the reason they defeated this pilot was due to his overconfidence and he wasn’t a militia pilot
Bangalore and jackson are both either pilot certified or near pilot certified
they always bring a great story
apart from the obvious good animations, design, etc, The AMAZING story this tells in 8 mins is mind-blowing.
Man so dedicated to fair play he really turned smart pistol to not recognize the target if his crosshair not aimed right. Respect.
I’m glad they showed how scary pilots can be in a grunt’s perspective in this cinematic
Cooper did pilot training under lastimosa supervision and lastimosa was pretty much skilled
@KB PL Yes, thae dude missd two time whit auto aim. Most pilots are instakill you if you sand in plce for 1s whitout ap.
@Raxius you do realize that Jackson was a pilot and Anita was very close to becoming one?
@DoctorQuack I refuse to believe a pilot missed both shots from a target who was right in front of him
Que trailer incrível !! 🇧🇷
This needs to be a full series on Netflix or sumthin this was badass 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
"You did what you thought was right, we both did"
That was actually pretty good writing
I just want an entire Netflix series of this
One of my least favorite characters but had the BEST storyline . Loved it
You my next storyline
I really love seeing the war from a Grunts POV. In Titanfall you see a Titan as another obstacle but as a Grunt it's a walking death machine. Pilots are also much scarier since they operate on an almost super human level
@Skittalz 😑 bruh play the game and you’d see otherwise
@Betito117 dude, in titanfall 2 you play as a grunt, that gets made a pilot just taking the helmet of a dead pilot and linking to his Titan,
Why are people sayung that pilots Are super humans?? titanfall 2 jack cooper is a grunt in that game, and became a pilot
@Skittalz No one even said they were superhuman but you. They clearly said "superhuman *LEVEL."* You're arguing against a statement that wasn't even made and still being wrong. L.
I think Bangalore was even on her way to becoming a pilot during the war, but one, Cooper obviously stopped a large section of the war before she became one and 2. this happened
Классная короткометражка! Прямо захотелось снова поиграть. Как жаль, что вечная прогрузка в главное меню не позволяет мне это сделать...
This was beautiful when they tag teamed against the pilot was phenomenal💯
We need a whole show like Arcane! 😩
I've only watched the first 20 seconds but that pilot scene just really nice puts fear into our minds
and I've also learn pilots can now fly for long periods of time just like a Northstar in flight core
I hope they add her brother to the roster soon
I love seeing one man army characters, like the pilots from an outside perspective. It really reminders you how a much of a juggernaut you are when you play as them.
@Midnight Wolf they can hold their own and yet in the first 2-3 minutes she got bodied by a pilot. This video just contradicts itself bruh.
@Goose So were they lol.
Getting killed by two grunts? Not very..
Well, on the ground - yes, you are extremely powerful and pretty much the very top of the food and command chain. But you are still not invincible - there are other ones like you on the battlefield, Anti-Titan weapons do significant damage, and the ending of TF2 shows very clearly what will happen to you when a ship in the orbit manages to hit you D:
...but then Lastimosa in a ~half dead Vanguard managed to punch a full-ham Ronin to death, soo... yeah xD Pilot's skill is everything.
@derp7274 smart pistols can’t lock onto friendlies
Love it, but now this makes me question why her passive ability doesn't give her sight in her smoke since she can detect subtle changes in the smoke. It wouldn't even be hard to code since they have a similar thing with Nox Vision passive on Caustic
Would be way too op with her passive and stuff
Looking forward to more of these stories. Please make a netflix series
Can’t we just have 1 story with a good pilot
It's so awesome to see the Apex universe and the Titanfall Universe merge together so well!
It in the same universe it not like apex is a spin off
They should make an animated series out of this
Seeing the “cloak” ability in a apex trailer bring back so much titanfall nostalgia..
Yea lol
hearing a small bit of "MacAllans Endgame" (from Demeter ) at 7:50 made me even have nostalgia to Tf 1
And Respawn left Titanfall dead
@Gleb Silaev probably an upgraded pilot suit
@StraTbow *Extreme PTSD flashbacks*
This was an epic story that brings joy to me as an OG titanfall player, but I gotta ask how does someone miss with a smartpistol
Shooting before it has a lock-on.
I know that the pilots are technically the bad guys in this animation but…I’m sorry…I couldn’t stop rooting for the pilot here 5:55
@Centurion -0419 Frl bro 😂
I was counting how many times they would have died if it was lore accurate
It's cool they made her and her brother IMC soldiers and not militia considering we played as Militia in Titanfall 2, one thing I like about Titanfall universe is we get to see both sides as human and monsters and not one bad one good though the IMC did have some messed up people
Can y’all please make a show I’m obsessed
Has anyone noticed how similar the dropship’s missiles were to her ult?
CAN WE JUST GET A NETFLIX SERIES ALREADY
Riot did
Better titanfall 3
@Chuy Roldan "arcane" 🤓🤓🤓
@Wrecking Vi ???
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Words cannot describe how good it is to see pilots in action again. Now we just need tf3
They need to show us more of this but from the grunts perspective.
Such a cool cinematic. I wish there was a game where you could play as Titan Pilots right now.
i wish we could get a titanfall 3
that plot armor when a smart pistol misses and others man a fall like that would have broken her spine , then the leg of her brother would have been burned seriously from the jump kit of that pilot as and so forth man rewatching this im just happy they showed how awesome and strong real pilots are )
One cool detail is that the pilot cloak armour looks pretty different from how it did in tf2
I really like that this shows where she got her alternate and ultimate abilities from. The airstrike came from the IMC ship that attacked and the smokes are presumably because she figured out that’s how you counter the pilots cloaking ability.
Okay fellas I get it. This experience led to her having the abilities she has now, my mistake.
@RockyRoad Magic it not a stretch at all
@Stormy_478 it makes sense. This is before the games. So she took the pilots ship for herself and that’s what she uses as her ultimate. Double time instinct came from the pilot fight and all her years fighting in the field. Smokes came from her taking inspiration from her fight with the pilot.
I'd love to see a series from Apex like Arcane.
“Sheer walls become flanking routes” don’t ask why but it’s my favourite line from the opening scene of titanfall 2 I have no idea why
Such a freaking cool combat sequence towards the end.
This was probably the best story ever
You watch this, then read the season 13 story. It breaks your heart
Bangalore: “you don’t have to , we’re family..”
Vin diesel sitting in a corner somewhere smiling right now
🤣🤣🤣
Walks around the corner "And families always got each others back."
It about FAMILY :)
Actually read my name
Hahaha
That ending was so GOOD- "You don't have to. We're family" and then the picture got me emotional!!! We need the TV series.
Seeing Ion just stand in the background made my day. Her mere presence is enough.
Gotta say, seeing that cloaker pilot there was incredibly badass.
They should make a full movie or a animated show with these amazing graphics
I hope this means they are giving us a chance to buy her heirloom
I love how you can feel the pilots gaze as he looks in the camera. It was actually scary. Like they stare at you, you're finished.
Penance stare
They should really give us a limited time mode that is like 2 teams vs one pilot. Something along those lines. Give the pilot their choice of loadout while we scrounge and make their ultimate the smart gun.
ikrrrr
鳥肌と涙が止まらない
they should make more than one thing of this it needs to go onnnn
Anyone else notice the Commander’s name at 3:27?
Scryer. Like the leaked Legends’ name. I feel it’d be interesting to see an IMC superior in the game, ESPECIALLY the one who sent in the Pilot who destroyed the peaceful community Newcastle helped build.
Let’s be honest, if that Pilot was Jack Cooper then Bangalore would have been dead for sure.
Most militia pilots take things serious. I couldn't bring myself to forgive Bangalore for risking the civilians safety. But a second chance is always open for everyone
if the pilot didn't decide to be cocky they woulda died for suree.
They should make this a show were every episode is a bit of lore for the legends
man i really love how they made Bangalore's skin crash your whole team just like how Bangalore and her brother crashed on gridiron
edit:noice
🔥🔥🔥
The immersion it adds was much needed
Really cool reference
💀
ok just read my name
This goes to show how Respawn could easily make such a good Netflix series🔥🔥🔥
Side note,I love commander scryer's design and his helmet
Pilot should have won, plot armor really saved them. With all the augmentations the pilots receive the kick to the head would’ve been enough. Maybe one day we can get Titanfall again
This is great, wow what a piece of art. Well done.
I am thinking WAY to deep into this but I have a theory.....
That the IMC pilot was yellow because in Titanfall 2, yellow is a main colour in the colourblind mode. I suppose this could be a metaphor for the fact that Bangalore didn't hate the IMC like everyone else.
Again I'm thinking way too into this
Finally, the long awaited Banga Lore 😆
Lol
E
I see what you did there
Light Yagami: that is a good joke here
How do you spell your name again ?
I can’t wait untill they make this into a show
As a Bangalore main I did not know this is how she got her heirloom
Best ending yet that ending was so good
This was badass. On par with the revenant trailer.
Imagine Apex animations on Netflix 🔥 all story are so dope
The fight scene was quite cool, it worked surprisingly well with the cell-shading !
Pilots are still the coolest thing in the Titanfall/Apex universe...
Also after watching it some times I really like the music (like in the other stories from the outlands), especially 7:51 when a short moment of "MacAllans Endgame" from Titanfall 1 played
2022 is your year, 📣

@Kane ASAX He just forgot he was one melee away from respawning. Happens to everyone.
@Villain NPC #13,472 It literally does tho?
We see that pilots one-shot grunts in numerous sources, many of them being lore cards and cinematics.
@Dreel 37 of course they are, they are kind of superhuman but not that strong, a couple teams of grunts can take one down but not with the number with 1 digit
finally, a animated lore for a character that I like alot, thanks apex
i remember hearing about her brother from playing as wraith and bloodhound and having bangalore as a teammate when i say thank you
Seeing the Titanfall universe expanded gives me an unfathomably pure feeling of joy 🥲
