After the tech test, as EA calls it, got over, they said that they had learned quite a few valuable things, and will add some changes before the next tech test takes place, with pilot mobility being on the top of the list. The mobility mechanics were changed to address the problems of Titanfall. “We identified two major issues we wanted to solve in Titanfall 2.
