Reddit reviews The Art of Titanfall 2

The Art of Titanfall 2 had this to say about Pilot Classes:

>We're taking a step back into the earliest stages of gameplay development with these prototype Pilot sketches. "We weren't sure how the Pilots would be used yet, so we were trying all kinds of ideas from the tradional engineer classes to weird nonspecific designs," adds Art Director Joel Emslie.

>"One thing that we kept with the heavy Pilots was the idea of the robotic arm they wear on their backs to help them with tactical gear."

-
And about the flying one without legs:

>"An early concept for light pilots was to remove their legs entirely, but it seemed a bit too abstract in the end," says Joel Emslie. "We needed the Pilots to feel physically bound to the ground so that their moves could still have weight."


-
And that's not all - Some of the code for Pilot Classes was left in the game, including a detailed description of each class' role and weapons.

-
Edit: The Pilot silhouettes on the "flying craft" may only be included for scale. They also appear without caption on a page labeled "Turrets & Drones" in the art book.

-
Brad also uploaded a clean look at several decals/signage, and how they fit into the Titanfall world. (and another amazing album on iconography that warranted its own thread)

-
For his Titanfall 1 stuff, Brad uploaded a ton of amazing art on his personal website here.

For other concept art and more - this is your hub.

Fun Fact: This glorious piece of art was the very first concept art made after Respawn was founded, by future Art Director Joel Emslie also by Brad Allen. Pretty crazy that the creature pictured made it into the final game. (Sources: The Final Hours of Titanfall and Brad Allen's site above)

If you want more information about the aircrafts check out "The art of Titanfall" and "The art of Titanfall 2". There are entire chapters about spaceships and more. I have them both and I really recommend them!

During the Titanfall 1 days, my sources were:

• The original Titanfall website
  
  
• The Titanfall Companion App ("Universe" section)
  
  
• Insignias
  
  
• The Titanfall 1 multiplayer campaign (so many hours spent on YouTube, increasing video quality, turning on subtitles, pausing, playing, pausing, playing... argh)
  
  Though I never actually bought it until recently, "The Art of Titanfall" has a lot of great information, much of which you'll find on the wiki. Definitely worth the buy. "The Art of Titanfall 2" is also good but doesn't contain as much straightforward lore as its predecessor, despite having some beautiful concept art and tragically excluded models and environments.
