The Northstar Client: A Must-Have for Titanfall 2

Want to know how to install the Titanfall 2 Northstar Client? The Northstar Client is a community-developed multiplayer client that allows players to access player-run servers and adds new features to the FPS game. We’ve been using it for some time now, and it’s breathed new life into Titanfall 2. If you’re looking to play on better servers or just want to enjoy Titanfall 2’s renaissance, here’s everything you need to know about the Northstar Client.

The Northstar Client is a must for anyone looking to play Titanfall 2. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, the vanilla game is a bit of a mess. Luckily, Respawn and EA have shown no sign of bringing new content to the game, so the Northstar Client is the best way to play Titanfall 2.

Titanfall 2 Northstar Client Modes

The modes available to play differ between the Northstar Client and the vanilla game. The modes in the former are a combination of the modes in the latter, as well as some custom modes that players have created. These modes include:

  • Mode 1
  • Mode 2
  • Mode 3

If you’re looking for something a bit more hectic, there are a few custom modes that have popped up in the Northstar Client. These modes include Gun Game, Infection, and Fastball, which are all popular battle royale and shooter game modes.

Titanfall 2 Northstar Client Private Match Creator

Northstar’s private match creator allows players to customize gameplay settings and toggles to their heart’s content. Some of these settings include damage modifiers, friendly fire toggles, and Titan shields.

Titanfall 2 Northstar Client Installation

Installing the Northstar Client is pretty easy, but it does require a bit of knowledge of how to use Steam, Origin, and the game itself. The client runs as a separate application, so you need to locate and run “NorthstarLauncher.exe” in the Titanfall folder to launch it.

To install the Northstar Client on Steam, you need to copy the contents of the Northstar folder into the Titanfall 2 folder.

On Origin, navigate to the Titanfall 2 folder and copy the contents of the Northstar folder into it.

Titanfall 2 Northstar Client Updates

The Northstar Client receives updates, and you can keep it up-to-date by reinstalling the newest version. If you’d prefer to use another launcher, such as Viper, VTOL, or R2ModMan, which automatically update the client. All you have to do is add the launcher as a non-Steam game within Steam or Origin to make it easier to access.

You might also want to add the launcher as a non-Steam game within Steam or Origin if you encounter an authentication issue with Origin when launching Northstar. We’ve had no problems with the launcher on Steam, but it could be a problem specific to Origin.

When you launch the Northstar Client for the first time, you’ll be able to access servers and features provided by the Northstar Client in the Titanfall 2 Northstar menu.

And that’s everything you need to know about the Titanfall 2 Northstar Client.
