Titanfall

without a doubt the original guys behind IW had talent (they were the ones who invented the cod formula we all came to love and then hate)

had they stayed at activision, maybe we would’ve saw less copypasta

now that the main talent is no longer there, all activision CAN do is copypasta until cod dies

The real question: Will it be on steam? Some people say it won’t be. It’s already on that shitty Origin thing. But… fuck Origin, I’d just rather not buy it at all.

That would be a stupid reason not to buy this game

It’s not going to be on Steam, it’s published by EA.

Your impressions so far beta participants?

It is the hypest MP game I’ve played yet. Fast paced, you have a ton of freedom of movements, the weapons feel so good, the titans are absolutely incredible, the sound design is fantastic, the graphics are the only weak link I think but they’re still very good and barely looks like Source if at all.

If you say so, that means something I guess. Because all over internet, all I’m seeing are hateful comments that it’s a CoD clone with mechs, that it’s the most overhyped thing and all that. For the “more valid” complaints, how many maps are there in the beta? I heard 3 in whole game with the rest coming as dlc, that would worry even me.

I played a bit with Maxey today and then a bit alone. So much damn fun. I even killed another titan by sending my titan down on him.

In case it gets good reviews and sales, I can imagine Activision smashing their heads against a wall for having kicked out/allowed to leave some talented folks.

This game completely curbstomps CoD all over the place. Titanfall will be the new hype.

This might even win over BF as EA’s new online FPS staple.

Cod’s popularity is already falling, and with Battlefield already stealing a lot of their community, I could imagine Titanfall giving the killing blow.

i hear the game plays like a parkour-fpsz-mech-moba since it has ai grunts and all

and the verticality is inspired by tribes, making it a fpsz

I got a Titan fall beta code for Xbox one. Anyone wanting to trade for an origin code?
Have no idea why they gave me a Xbox one code when I signed up for origin lmao

See this article for instructions to get a replacement PC key

Don’t try to trade or sell your code - they don’t like it when people do that.

This game is pretty amazing. It’s like CoD + Tribes + mechwarrior all in one, and everything about it is fluid

No servers for Titanfall here (yet)- ~185ms ping is just high enough to make things feel clunky rather than fluid :frowning:

The mech combat is more like Hawken than MechWarrior. Don’t know where the Tribes comparison comes from (aside from it being a FPS with jetpacks) :stuck_out_tongue:

I hope they uncap the framerate for release.

Tribes is a game about mobility, and this game has tons of it

Never played hawken so can’t really compare.

idk bout bad ping servers, but in a good ping server, once you get the hang of the game you can get all over the place and wreck house pretty consistently against other players.

I actually haven’t played in the titan as much as I’ve wanted to because being a pilot is so fun.

True

Yeah, against players with similar ping it’s pretty fun.

I wonder if they’ll eventually make the Grunts / Spectres more capable in combat against players - at the moment their reactions are so slow and their aim so bad that I could pretty easily take out a pod-load as a pilot using just the melee attack…

I think they are meant to be fodder to extend the idea that you and a “select few” are elite pilots and much better than regular footsoldiers
