Titanfall game modes tweaked in new patch

Respawn mech changes.

Titanfall developer Respawn has made a list of changes to the game's modes and weapons in a new server patch deployed over the weekend.

Score limits and damage totals seem to be the major alterations - the Smart Pistol has been nerfed when not locked on, while arc grenades will no longer draw on friendly Pilots or Titans.

There's a host of bugfixes too, Respawn revealed.

But there are no big additions to game, such as the promised private lobbies or support for the upcoming companion app. You'll have to wait a bit longer for those.

The full list of changes lies below.
