Sniper rifle seems OP as hell.

Watching some of the footage and woooooow, so many noob-level players. I really hope there's a fresh pool of nobs, because the alpha was pretty overshadowed with typical try had diehards. It's like Christmas after CoD, ripe for the picking.
My 7970 is ready.
It's only really useful on Fracture. Angel city has so many ways to break line of sight that it makes it difficult to snipe.
can't wait to play this game.Oh boy.
for a source engine game? whos doing is this? someone confirm/deny please.
Someone I follow on twitter stated this: https://twitter.com/KBMODJohn/status/433839455862915072
It's filled with stupid bots and that won't change.

Game honestly does look good, I still think it is being over-hyped...w/e. I just hope we do not get another generation of ruled by FPS's.
I hope so. I plan on buying the Asus 1440P 120HZ Gsync monitor when they are available and want to go to 120FPS. Frame Rate caps are the worst, pc isn't a console. If we want to play the game on low and 300FPS we should be able to do so.

I will attack this as a gamer first if I may.
Watching the E3 trailer we saw some things. Double jumping, soldiers jumping onto titans and destroying them, soldiers getting ripped out of Titans by another, catching bullets, and shooting.
Since then, each new trailer showed some things. Double jumping, soldiers getting ripped out of their Titan, rising on a Titan to destroy it as a soldier, catching bullets.
Watching the love stream I am seeing some things. Catching bullets, Riding titans, ripping soldiers out of titans, and shooting things.
So .... To say the least the redundancy is showing itself already. The Titan vs Titan battles are underwhelming really. They both shoot at each other, occasionally catch each other's bullets and throw them back. And sometimes one gets close to another and punches or tries to rip the guy out. Seeing a soldier on foot is underehelming. As a soldier info not get the feeling as if you have much purpose beyond being mobile enough to jump into a Titan to try and take it down.
So yeah, gameplay wise it looks chaotic and fast paced, but it is worrisome that the sheer redundancy of the whole battle is already showing through. Atleast in COD or Team Fortress or whatever you had various roles. You could be an engineer and repair things or create turrets or robots or whatever. You could be a medic or a stealthy assassin. So far I see none of that here.
Speaking purely as a gamer, consider me disappointed. Hopefully the final product has more depth then this.

Well, stupid resolutions here I come.
Just for the beta?

Yep, this has been my basic feeling from the start. Now the thing is, everyone says you have to play it. Well, that is wonderful, but they need to sell me and they aren't. This game would benefit so much from an open beta/demo close to launch.
That's what the beta is for. Seriously, videos really can't show how the game plays and how fun it is.

So...open beta?
Nowhere did I say that the CoD players will stay on the ground.
I really fail to see how the strategies and flow of combat are that different. Kill X number of opposing soldiers or keep X amount of points controlled for Y amount of time. I hope the campaign portion add some much needed depth.
The mechanics may be slightly different but really it is, again, just adding verticality and mechs to a tried and true mechanic.
I wish. I played in the alpha so I'm not too worried if I don't get in but for those on the fence, I urge you to find a way to play it.
We'll see where the community takes the meta game. It's too early to judge, however this has been the thing I have been feeling as well.
To be honest I think they should have tried to do more with the traversal stuff then the titan stuff. Especially in maps. Angel city looks ripe for the traversal but the other one just looks like a more openish standard MP map, most likely for the Titan's to combat in.
Gong forward it's going to be interesting what mechanic they put more time into maturing in future TF games,maps and modes. The mechs or the trasversal. It's tricky to do both.

Is there no more ejection animation? That's too bad. I thought that looked really cool.

I've never played a COD game multiplayer in my life but I was under the impression that your role in the fight was based somewhat on the loadout you chose, and those are limited in the beta. There's also two classes of titans that aren't in the beta, granted all I know about those are that they're 'very big robot' and 'less big robot'.

Not in the least.

I haven't played CoD since...the first Black Ops I believe, of which back then at least I'm not seeing the variety or roles that would set it 'above' Titan Fall that IAmRandom31 is referring to. There may not the hundreds of weapon choices (exaggeration) in COD with the Killstreaks which I suppose factor in as strategy choice, but all in all the roles are all there from what there was back in Black Ops.
Thing is, where was this complaint with Halo? Counterstrike? Gears of War? Uncharted? Both can be easily reduced to just...well...finding different ways to kill people with a limited setup while working towards an objective, if the game includes objectives.
Those are computer controlled bots..... Yea bots in multiplayer, what a genius idea.....

I'm not too invested in this title, nor am I against it in any particular way, but I'm looking forward to reading some more impressions from people--rather than the people who fall under the "friends and family" category--when they get their hands on it.
Their attempt to make every shitty player feel like a badass I guess. I know plenty of friends who will find that neat as they talk about owning them while other friends will say it's stupid. I just find it odd.
I mentioned this in the other thread and if they could make the game focus on this, I'd be very happy:

They're not there to provide a challenge, they're there as a resource to farm to get your titan quicker. Making them mobile with rudimentary intelligence could be seen as a bit of an upgrade over most implementations.

Visuals look very dated
I honestly don't know what to make of it. The elites are going to farm the shit out of them. I hope there are regular modes without the bots like regular TDM.
He's referring to players, not bots.
Maybe...just maybe.....the campaign matches are ALL real players and are more than 6 vs. 6. This would add an air of importance to getting the job done. Or maybe 6 (one team) vs. an objective.
12. And of course....that is for the actual game.
