The race took place on the map Pipeline Plateau where the units had to run between nodes 2 and 4 as quickly as they could. All the units of the GDI Offense Class got together for this special occasion. Titan SpeedTo determine exactly how fast the Titan is, it was decided that we will have a little race. Yes, Titans are cool and look futuristic, but avoid building them if you don't really need them. It's a common mistake for beginners to build a huge army of Titans when they really need Hunters. Hunters serve as GDI's main tank and will therefore be a better option against Nod Offense players early in the game. When you're facing a bunch of medium Nod units, the Titan should rather be avoided. They are also a very good option when it comes to killing Crawlers. Therefore, the most efficient use of the Titan is for destroying heavy units and structures.
The Titan is highly effective against heavy units and some defense structures of the Nod Defense Class. This is really useful against targets trying to retreat from a losing battle or just to prevent a Raider from running away with a blue Tiberium crystal. In this screenshot you can see where the Titan's laser hits two Mantises and a Crawler.Īnother special ability of the Titan is to slow-down enemy units with its laser.
