Re: Titanfall (Xbox One/360/PC)

Playing on PC and I'm absolutely addicted. So much fun, love pretty much everything about it although it'd be nice if the Attrition matches were a little longer.

metalmilitia: They've said they compressed all the textures for the demo to lower the download size so this is definitely not what the final product will look like. I forget the exact settings but you can probably find a screen cap somewhere. There's AA and settings for lighting shadows etc. I have a 7870 and have everything on high and I think it looks pretty good. They have an insane settings but it says that's only for cards with 3GB of memory. I would guess that screen cap is not max settings. Don't get too caught up on the graphics for the beta I still think it looks good and it'll only get better for release.

Edit: Also I have an extra PC code if anyone wants it, although it's supposed to go open today possibly.

Fair enough, I don't have the beta or even care to play it because I've seen a few things and it seems like there's a lot of auto lock weapons and it seems like it is designed for people that either are not good at FPS's or are not that into them. This is not a game for someone looking for a competitive FPS. It seems like one of the most casual FPS games ever.

I really wanted this game to be good but every time I see anything about it I just cringe and hope that it flops.

Also I get that graphics are not the end all be all of games but with next gen supposed to be more powerful than last it's just like what is going on. This game however to me has really poor gameplay from what I've seen. It seems like very little skill is involved and it is designed so any knuckle kneed goof neck can run around and win.

Re: Titanfall (Xbox One/360/PC)

Lol, I'd try it out before you say much about it, there are lock on weapons for the titans but they can take a lot of damage so it's not close to one or two hits and that's it. As far as hunting pilots it's only the smart pistol which is awesome for killing grunts but halftime time completely useless against pilots.

The parkour stuff is what will separate the good from the bad, it's still pretty twitchy when your just running around with a carbine or SMG. Then once you get a feel for the levels and can get up on roofs easily to start jumping on titans or hunting pilots the game really comes together.

I'm about 6 hours in and except for some small issues with the length of the matches I really don't have any complaints. I'm still going to play a ton as long as the beta as up and I'll be buying day one. This is only 2 maps and one titan and a few weapons so I can't wait to see what the full game is like because right now nothing jumps out as being crazy overpowered and once you get the hang of wall running and jumping it really does feel like a completely different game from COD or BF.

A couple issues from the start other than lock on weapons. Bots being forced into the game instead of a few more players. This games isn't CS and it seems like the maps are a bit large for only 12 players even something like 16 would probably be perfect.

Also the fact that the dev came out and said client side hit detection is better than server side because you don't have to learn to adjust for lag which is total crap. You only have problems with server side hit detection if you have a low tick server. For example BF4 uses something like 16 tick where CS uses 64 and up except for mini games and things because it is cheaper to buy lower tick servers.

That really bothers me that they think client side is better because it just isn't. It's cheaper sure but better no.

Also EA being on there is kinda making me nervous as well sure they said yea we're letting them do everything with no input from us but I don't believe it for a second. EA wouldn't just give money to a brand new IP without having some input in the direction. Maybe they are why it seems so casual. Idk.

It just doesn't seem like a game for me. I grew up on Perfect Dark and Halo and recently have started playing CS. I tend to like there to be a bit more skill involved in the shooters. Yes I played CoD (who didn't) but I only played up to Blops and I didn't even buy it b/c I had gamefly at the time and could rent it. CoD 4 was my favorite of those games.

AAA gaming because of what it is they have to try and cater to the masses and the masses suck at video games so they make the games easier and imo it ruins the whole experience.

Lol what a horrible post. You are bashing a game you haven't even played yet and hope it flops? Just don't buy it. I don't like RPGs but I'm not going to sit here and hope fable doesn't sell any copies.

Re: Titanfall (Xbox One/360/PC)

Loved what I read on the weapons list. Titan Sniper and Titan Shotty!!!!! Stryder Titan with Shotty sounds like a plan

There is an open beta on Xbox One, and I believe the PC beta will be going open as well. Just try it for yourself.

Origin... Nope.

Also Xbox One LOL because I want to pay $500 to play games at the same resolution as my Xbox 360 that is about to die.

But I really like FPS's and Mech games. Chromehounds was one of my favorite games and I was sad when it couldn't be renewed for a sequel. Hawken is looking to be good but it also might be pay to win which is no good.

Like I said I really wanted this game to be great but it just looks like it's going to not be very good. But it will still sell...

PC master race brah. But seriously I bet Titianfail could have been so much better had they gone to kickstarter or WMD Portal or something like that instead of EA.

I'm going to go ahead and predict this game will not be a "fail".
