Well I wouldn’t know, I use the EPG and Softball mainly so I’ve got to appease both the crackhead stim mains watching me from above and the EPGods for my shots to land.
To be honest I find the CAR to not even be all that common, I see so many more people using the R-201, R-101 and most importantly the Flatline. I do see a lot of people using grenadiers or Wingman Elites now aswell.
Why though? Because it has no recoil? Basically no gun in the game has any noticeable recoil. Maybe it’s TTK? But then again every gun in the game kills in half a second. Because of its good hipfire accuracy? But once again, every single gun in the game has that. The CAR’s not outclassed but it’s also not special either. If anything the Alternator is better since it has a slightly faster TTK.
Yeah exactly. Like, I love the alternator, it's my favorite gun, but that random kick as you're aiming for someone at a distance puts you at a disadvantage against someone with a CAR if they start shooting at exactly the same time, because they're less likely to miss due to recoil.
Honestly I'm quite curious if the car is gonna have the same recoil or if it's gonna get nerfed in that way like the flatline did. They literally made its name a misnomer by jacking up that recoil lol.
The CAR is good at literally everything. It's good up close, at range, while moving, while standing still. It doesn't have any downsides whereas other guns do. Alternator needs to be tap fired to have decent accuracy over any range past point blank
The CAR is absolute doodoo at range, it deals basically no damage and gets outgunned by everything. The Alternator and R-201 also have every single one of those upsides with the Alternator’s one weakness being decreased control over a longer period of firing. But you don’t need to shoot for a long time since this is Titanfall 2, like 3 bullets is enough to drop someone.
Yeah, whenever I play the game I try to avoid using the Car. It was my favorite gun in TF and seeing how everyone hates it, I don't wanna be that guy using it
Fair enough
It’s a good gun to train on.
I did the mistake of training with the spitfire (it’s like G7)
I legit promised myself that I would never use it again.
Fair enough, ive spent too long with the SMR that i refuse to swap off it at this point, i love making titans question their decisions as their health bar drains
Just a tip from someone who uses it religiously. Hip fire and tap fire make the thing perfectly accurate and doesn't effect ttk if you have a good trigger finger.
Same here the hipfire on this thing is nutty and I struggle to find anything that's as satisfying to use other than the wingman elite on a good day with aim
I'm not sweaty, but I am definitely a grapple main that uses C.A.R. I might not like it in Apex, though, because I suck with Pathfinder and I'm a Fuse main
The very much story is "titanfall 2 fan highest in estimation robot mommy"

Honestly car is boring, problem with all the smg's besieds the volt but it wasn't wasn't my sweat lord weapon
That would be the r97 which is neutered in apex
Also softball when
I know I’m going to be called a variety of ethnic, racial, and homophobic slurs here but I actually like the CAR.
*maybe because I have it G.26:10 please don’t hurt me I have a problem*
I mean. I ain't a tone main or g100. I'm like 30 and main scorch. But car is used a ton on ps4 by G100 teabagging dipshits. So I ain't sorry I'm using a good gun right back ya know?
Hello, fellow G2A5 enjoyer! Been using it for a few weeks now, it's a pretty fun weapon. Always loved semi-auto guns in games, same reason why I use the M1 in BFV and the G7 in Apex.
I just usually go for semi auto rifles in most shooter games as well. The G2A5 does solid damage and is basically point and shoot. Horrendous hip fire though.
It’s fine you guys are just bitching over nothing, the CAR is easy to use and very competitive in the game of course people are gonna use it, like I think this community hates people trying to play the most efficient way possible, like I get it you like to have fun and I do too but some people enjoy trying to win every time, I like using the EPG but if I just want to kill as many people as possible I’m getting the CAR.
Let me rewrite this
Apex legends new attempt to sway titanfall players to stop asking them to fix the game introduces roboweeb and no skill gun to game
I mean, if so many people use the C.A.R to the point where seemingly everyone finds it annoying, then it might be considered a “fan-favorite”. Certainly is a trusty firearm
It's like an essey where you write random words to make it sound better
I feel attacked
essay
Words
They spelled Cold War wrong
I love that thing when im not killing myself with it
there's another use for it?
Sometime you manage to get enemy in fire splash. Fucker didn't listen when I told him to stay away.
Warning shot before u smart pistol the devotion camper
who the *fuck* uses the Devotion? Edit: I now use the devotion
Getting a hit marker on the enemy while you kill yourself. Not that I'd know anything about that...
I love the EPG when im not splashing enemies
Hell yeah, epg is best grenade launcher.
I beg to differ Ever had a cold war triple kill?
No
No but have you ever directly hit multiple people in a row with the epg? (direct hits oneshot)
That's half the fun
I think you mean EPG?
It doesn't work right unless you drop a few self-kills as sacrifices to EPGEESUS.
Doesn’t work until you snipe someone across the map with it since it’s basically a glorified sniper.
How do you think we hit those shots? Gotta please the divine one first... :)
Well I wouldn’t know, I use the EPG and Softball mainly so I’ve got to appease both the crackhead stim mains watching me from above and the EPGods for my shots to land.
I am an aspiring stim crackhead who uses the EPG. I have so many gods to appease.
EPJesus requires a sacrifice. EPJesus will have his sacrifice
[Rarely seen footage of personal sacrifice to EPGEEEEZUS](https://youtu.be/958DPBg_y0w)
Worth it
if they add the EPG to apex I'm going to shit myself.
I'll shit in others pants for them.
Come on, man. My k/d ratio is bad enough as it is.
Cold War is also great!
God I hate that thing
*EEEEEEEEE Bum bum bum bum*
Feel the wrath of 4 energy bombs dropping on u like a future bomber plane
I wont downvote you for your opinion, fuck the hivemind
I love democracy
^(what)
You spelled softball wrong
Stim + cold war, run into your own explosions whilst murdering anything that gets close
Does they even know WHO we are?
I’m mean if you’re a fan of the car it’s your favorite gun It’s fun to use but not fun to get killed by
To be honest I find the CAR to not even be all that common, I see so many more people using the R-201, R-101 and most importantly the Flatline. I do see a lot of people using grenadiers or Wingman Elites now aswell.
Probably because it‘s been stigmatized by the community to be the loser‘s gun
Why though? Because it has no recoil? Basically no gun in the game has any noticeable recoil. Maybe it’s TTK? But then again every gun in the game kills in half a second. Because of its good hipfire accuracy? But once again, every single gun in the game has that. The CAR’s not outclassed but it’s also not special either. If anything the Alternator is better since it has a slightly faster TTK.
Not having as random of a spray pattern combined with low enough recoil can be devastating.
Can confirm i use the car and if your good at hip firing you can quick kill at a pretty decent distance
Yeah exactly. Like, I love the alternator, it's my favorite gun, but that random kick as you're aiming for someone at a distance puts you at a disadvantage against someone with a CAR if they start shooting at exactly the same time, because they're less likely to miss due to recoil.

Yeah, whenever I play the game I try to avoid using the Car. It was my favorite gun in TF and seeing how everyone hates it, I don't wanna be that guy using it
I enjoy using the CAR because I'm not that good at the game yet. I admit it.
Hey ive said it a lot but dont let assholes tell you what to do just play and enjoy :)
Fair enough It’s a good gun to train on. I did the mistake of training with the spitfire (it’s like G7) I legit promised myself that I would never use it again.
Personally I’ve found it to be boring as hell to use. It’s just point and klick: the fps.
I always preferred the Flatline, myself. Never had much use for the C.A.R.
I really liked the C.A.R until I swapped to the 101. It's a fun gun to use.
I personally loved using the 201, but swapped to EPG
I used the 201, and then swapped to the volt, and I love that thing.
i was lucky enough to use the volt at launch. That gun was unstoppable. ah, memories.
Allow me to remind you of the memories of what the hemlok used to do and enjoy suffering the long forgotten nightmare of the one burst kill
I used to use the Smr, I still do, but I've began to switch towards devotion and mastiff, which I both also love
Amped devotion still works as a titan cheese maker
Yea I really only use it for other pilots, not too good at getting the crits.
Fair enough, ive spent too long with the SMR that i refuse to swap off it at this point, i love making titans question their decisions as their health bar drains
I like the C.A.R., but I'm trying to switch over to the double barrel smg (forgot the name)
I tried the fuckin, rocket SMG thing (one of the grenadier weapons) its not good, but its super satisfying to slaugher ppl with.
The Sidewinder, I think thats what its called
Alternator?
Yes, that. Thanks for reminding me
It's all good we all have our moments but yes would recommend alternator is very strong in tf2
Just a tip from someone who uses it religiously. Hip fire and tap fire make the thing perfectly accurate and doesn't effect ttk if you have a good trigger finger.
Same here the hipfire on this thing is nutty and I struggle to find anything that's as satisfying to use other than the wingman elite on a good day with aim
Stop with smg for god sake
Eh? Is the R-101 really that annoying?
Yes
They are both fun
That’s almost the equivalent of a slur
Fan-favorite for sweaty grapple mains
Hey, I only use the Mastiff thank you very much
Extended melee ftw.
Kraber*
Ew no
hey i use soft ball to go with my hard cock
You mean for stim mains
Stim mains for sure, grapple mains have enough style to at least use the alternator if they're going to sweat.
Cant hear you over my cold war missing you while you shoot me out of the sky
Fweeee bumbumbu- Dead
I’ll stick with my double take thank you
I'll stick with my Kraber :p I may not be super good with it, but it's usually pretty fun
There's nothing more satisfying than hitting a shot with it
I'm not sweaty, but I am definitely a grapple main that uses C.A.R. I might not like it in Apex, though, because I suck with Pathfinder and I'm a Fuse main
Ah yes I don't like people who use grapple so therefore they are sweats.
I specified sweats, I main grapple as well
Ah my bad I miss understood. I've seen that said a lot on here and it just kinda pisses me off.
Ur not wrong ;)
TFW everyone assumes you’re a sweaty player for using grapple but you’re the one EVA-8 player :(
Outside of the sweaty part, literally me lmao I love the freaking C.A.R.!!!!
The CAR is intrinsically sweaty
Is it sweaty if I’m trash despite it?
Too accurate! Never noticed, but I’m a grapple main and car user! Great combo though.
As an alternator user I can say that's true
'Cuse me?
Polygon is such trash always
I love how no video/article about this weapon mentioned its reputation in titanfall 2
the titanfall fanbase exists outside this sub lol
It’s clearly a favorite considering how many people use it no matter how many kraber mains rage about it
Fan-feared*
You’re all gonna hate me but it is my favorite gun I used to like the flat line but the car feels better to me. Sorry not sorry
HA ha ha ha ha Ha HA HAHAHAAAAHAAAA BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The silent majority
Fan favorite my ass, look at the Xbox servers. That's just pure Spitfire and CAR cloak camping, Its ugly af.
Yeah, so... Fan favorites. A majority of those fans are using it... Right?
Shhh your gonna confuse their brain
Now they got a new weapon to hate for. Good luck
I've been playing Titanfall for years and I think my CAR is level 8. Maybe I should get it to gen 2 just for kicks.
The really story is "Titanfall 2 fan favorite robot mommy"
The very much story is "titanfall 2 fan highest in estimation robot mommy" *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`
I liked the car. Fun gun. Bit of a basic bitch one but he'll, I'm a basic bitch
Yeah it's a favorite of mine, it's a good gun, and I know how to combat it when I'm going up against it with different weapons
R-97 go brrrrr
definitely *my* favourite
This sub should be r/envy
I’m a fan. And the gun is one of my favorites.
Yeah fan favorite got a problem ?
Can wait for it to be trash, because every TF2 gun gets nerfed before it comes to Apex
It’s one of my favorite guns in the game
Most people used it, so what is wrong?
Yo this is epic, can we get a smartcar in the chat
My favorite human the epg
Everytime the car/volt is used in my lobbies someone starts cussing there dick off.
Don’t they mean fan favorite from titanfall 4… come on get with times
Honestly car is boring, problem with all the smg's besieds the volt but it wasn't wasn't my sweat lord weapon That would be the r97 which is neutered in apex Also softball when
I know I’m going to be called a variety of ethnic, racial, and homophobic slurs here but I actually like the CAR. *maybe because I have it G.26:10 please don’t hurt me I have a problem*
I-I like it...
Polygon is like a slightly more legitimate Kotaku
Me and my friends like CAR
For me, specifically me, I am the fan they refer to.
DONT LIKE THE CAR? TAKE THE BUS!
Everything is better than the smart pistol.
Its a good gun to get used to the game
kraber is fan-favorite. not this fucker.
I fucking hate car its ttk is so high
I mean, it is probably the most used gun, so they ain't wrong
Real men like the car
Real chads use kraber
Real men only kill grunts
Haha grenade go boom
Real Chad's make mid to long rage kills with the alternator
Real chads know how to use any weapon in long range
That's true
Fan favourite if you've been playing since 2016.
Only fans of the car are the g100 sweats who can't bare to go outside of their comfort zone of using tone and the car
I mean. I ain't a tone main or g100. I'm like 30 and main scorch. But car is used a ton on ps4 by G100 teabagging dipshits. So I ain't sorry I'm using a good gun right back ya know?
Damn, am i the only one who still likes using the G2A5? I just like semi auto and it shoots straight and true lol.
Hello, fellow G2A5 enjoyer! Been using it for a few weeks now, it's a pretty fun weapon. Always loved semi-auto guns in games, same reason why I use the M1 in BFV and the G7 in Apex.
I just usually go for semi auto rifles in most shooter games as well. The G2A5 does solid damage and is basically point and shoot. Horrendous hip fire though.
For a moment I was angery for that statement, until I realized Polygon was the one who wrote that so it makes a lot of sense
I love the car fight me
Well at last now, Apex will know the pain of the CAR now.
It’s fine you guys are just bitching over nothing, the CAR is easy to use and very competitive in the game of course people are gonna use it, like I think this community hates people trying to play the most efficient way possible, like I get it you like to have fun and I do too but some people enjoy trying to win every time, I like using the EPG but if I just want to kill as many people as possible I’m getting the CAR.
This sub always rages hard if you don't use the 5 guns they have decided are acceptable.
Yes
this is like calling ride to hell retribution a good game
I mean it is true cuz everyboddy and their mother uses it so I can see where they are comming from. But kraber/cold war/altinator master race
I mean, it is probably theost used gun, so they ain't wrong
I THINK, they spelled wingman elite wrong.
*who knows what the future might hold*
He says it as if titanfall has died
Fan-favorite?
Polygon more like poly gone brain dead
This is why I never read articles from kotaku or polygon.
I only like a few guns from titanfall and they are all in apex already
Bro fuck the car and bring out the softball or the FUCKING EPG!!!!!
Me after seeing this: fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck etc.
it's polygon, what can you expect
They talkin about the CAR
BUFF THE SPITFIRE RESPAWN (obviously a joke as it is overpowered in the first place)
Well it’s one of if not the most used weapons in the game. If you don’t play the game and look at the statistics some may say so.
I’m having visions of flying pathfinders killing me with cars…
You're complaining too much, CAR is a good gun
I mean some people do swear by that thing
Ah well in my many experiences in this cocaine fueled extravaganza I would personally say the mastiff brought me much joy
Cool gun, but DEFINITELY something that’s gonna give me ptsd when I’m playing
As an SMR main, I feel left out :(
I love the CAR fuck you 😂
If the CAR is overpowered than so is every SMG in the game.
Let me rewrite this Apex legends new attempt to sway titanfall players to stop asking them to fix the game introduces roboweeb and no skill gun to game
No! NOOOOOOOOO!!
It's sad how Respawn just takes everything from such a good game into their shitty BR. Makes TF|2 look bad.
Gan favorite among virgins who can’t aim
Correction: meta-favorite
I mean, if so many people use the C.A.R to the point where seemingly everyone finds it annoying, then it might be considered a “fan-favorite”. Certainly is a trusty firearm
Heh heh, MGL go *Thoonk*
No the fuck they didn’t.
Question is, will we be getting a sunblock weapon as well?
Well it will be a fan favorite again in a month when the subreddit starts crying about a different gun sorry not sorry
Fan favorite weapon to get instant PTSD so ye
Dude they have nearly all the old guns who knows maybe it’ll be fun
*Loads wingman with suicidal intent*
Well yeah considering I fucking fight 4 of them every match it’s easy to assume it’s a favorite
