    Re: Titanfall 2

    Very disappointed with that demo. A friend and I who routinely spent our weekends playing Titanfall 1 initially couldn't wait to play TF2. After a hour or two we both came away extremely unimpressed. It's like the devs decided to strip the game of everything that gave TF it's own identity and made it like every other shooter out there.


    To me, they neutered the gamespeed too much for my liking and the Titans felt less imposing as well to some degree. In TF1, as a pilot you were very careful about how to approach Titans when on foot. In TF2, that fear has been eradicated due to how little damage Titans seem to be able to take this time around. Maybe it's just me.


    My friend and I jumped back on TF1 after messing with TF2 and the joy came back almost immediately. Fast, free flowing, exciting gameplay -Everything that is missing from the demo imo.


    I like the grappling hook and the new slide. I also think the graphics have improved slightly. All I really wanted were new weapons, new maps, and single player on top of the existing gameplay from TF1. I think the pace of the game has changed too much from the original imo..October 28th is a couple of months away and I hope some things can change in that time...

    EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

      Re: Titanfall 2

      EA has to do the right thing here and delay this game. If it releases in the shape it's in (and I enjoyed what I played, it was fun) it's DOA. It has no chance to compete with BF1 the week before and COD the week after, not to mention Gears 4 and Destiny releasing over the same month period as well. Move the game's date to Feb/March, give the team time to clean it up and make it better. Give it a chance when it's not already dead due to a disastrous release date.

      But since EA put it there to begin with competing with their other big shooter, it tells me they won't move this game out and just watch it die in retail.

      I played both weekends of the technical test and the player count dropped almost 50% in one weekend. That right there should be enough for Respawn to want to pull this game out of the holiday season.

          Happily Sony allowed me to cancel my digital preorder for TF2.

            I didn't like the first Titanfall at all but that's just because the game wasn't for me, everything you said is spot on though.

            I've seen a lot of forum posts on Titanfall 2 mostly on Reddit and every single says the same exact things you mentioned, they took away the "Titanfall" from this game and now it's just like every other shooter.

            If the game releases in the current state as ExtremeGamer mentioned, it's going to flop big time.

            FYI: This game is no longer part of the EA Access discount program and it will not have a 10 hour trial, that's another fail for TF2 IMO.

                    What's the point of pre-ordering digitally (or at all) so early?

                          I did the same thing with Rise of Iron for Destiny. Pre ordered on Xbox One and decided to cancel.

                            Well. I will still hold out hope this game ends up kicking butt, but, I am definitely not holding my breath

                              I still can't believe this is not up for the 10 hour trial in EA Access. The developers must know it's going to flop. I will be interested in how bad this one sells.
