My sincerest apologies for those playing IB on PS4.

12 year old daughter has been playing. She's higher functioning autistic, doesn't understand teamwork, doesn't know how to play Rift and has never played as a Titan before. Yes we've tried to explain it but it just makes a wooshing sound as it flies overhead. So if you see a female Titan wearing the Superblack shader and Sunbreaker mark running round like a headless chicken punching everything that moves and waving at everyone on the enemy team she's killed, that'll be her. I'm sorry. Edit: to all those asking if she's having fun, she's laughing her arse off and having a great time. She just asked me if she could change teams because the other side were losing so badly she wanted to go help them lol *facepalm* Edit 2: I'm a Brit. Apologising is a national hobby. 😁

    [quote] She's higher functioning autistic, doesn't understand teamwork, doesn't know how to play Rift[/quote] I have also autism. At the beginning of TTK was it hard to understand how Rift and Teamplay works together but now with a good Team of friends it makes so much fun. Hope she has fun and don't get -blam!-ed up like me everytime when i die/lose. (Because I hate to lose...)

Thank you for the awesome post good sir! Makes me wish I was playing on a PS4 instead of Xbox.

        I don't like playing with children. But then again I only play with 18+ in my clan, which are 18+. Adults are more fun to play with from personal experience.

        • I thought that creating interesting insults and slandering people was their national pass time. I can't listen to more than 10 seconds or I'll die laughing.

          • Pffft... no apology necessary. If she has fun, she's got more reason to play this game than 95% of the player base

          • Why don't you just let her play team training so she doesn't have to get matched up against try hards?

          • No apology needed. It's only a game and if you're daughter is having fun, then that's all that matters. Do take caution though because there are idiots in the game who forget that it's just a game and target others who are "inferior".
