Titanfall 1 for example is `r1`, Apex Legends is `r5`, etc.\ The reason this wiki for example is called `r2northstar.gitbook.io` is due to the fact that "_Northstar_" is a rather common name and as such often already reserved by other organisations and people. "_R2Norhtstar_" is both uncommon and therefore still available and ties "_Northstar_" with Titanfall 2, due to the `r2` part of the name. + +### Q: I keep getting “File corruption detected” error + +A: You’re most likely running an outdated Northstar version now, please update.
