Titanfall Gameplay Footage (Embargo Lifted)

Oh shit oh shit I just remembered that I have a Windows 7 Pro x64 product key from school oh god I think I might be able to play on PC after all.
 
Fucking wow. Can't wait.

Haha, did that guy just drop his Titan on top of a damaged Titan, totally destroying it? I had no idea that was even possible!

Ok. Basic purpose is to help players get their Titan faster. This applies to good and bad players.

They are also there to direct players to where conflict is. A.I heads to objectives, which is what players should do in objective based games. Way too many FPS games have objectives which mostly get ignored by players.

They are also there to keep the flow of combat going. It emulates the franticness of way more players by having 12 humans, 12 Auto Titans and then having A.I runts running around. Its feels more like an actual battle, as apposed to some arena with 8 dudes just gunning each-other.

According to Respawn, the A.I will be there as part of the narrative, as well as being useful to your team/enemy team since you can hack certain A.I to fight for you, thereby creating more difficult waves to force at your enemy, giving you time to get on with the job.

They are also there to make the humans feel good, since they are lowly grunts and you are the Captain that has all the intel and cool stuff. If A.I could do all the cool stuff, humans would be redundant. Think of it as an army where the cannon-fodder is just dumb grunts getting murdered until the leader comes to save the day and attempt to change the tide of battle.

This post cannot be quoted enough, especially the bolded. You're basically one of a few battlefield leaders. Also agree totally on the flow of combat, and their usefulness in pursuing and leading the player to objectives. I've watched maybe 4 videos to completion so far, and specifically watched 2 out of those 3 maybe 2 to 3 times each, and as far as what this game aims to achieve, I think it definitely delivers on in a big way.
 
I've been using the R101-C almost exclusively, only time I've used the EVA-8 is the automatic one you get from a Burn Card.

Glad to see you got into the Beta early and looks like you're enjoying the game. :)

Smart Pistol is my jam!!!

Edit: Just added you as a friend on XBL so feel free to do the same and hopefully we can get some beta action in this weekend. Gamertag: EteRnal PAL
 
Can anyone with the XB1 beta tell me if Xbox Record That works? I'd love to make some game clips from the beta if I get in.

I'm playing on PC, but thanks anyway!

I don't want to drown the thread in hyperbole, but the hype is real, the awards were deserved, and the wanton attention is certainly not manufactured.

Game is legit.
 
are there more weapons in the beta than the alpha?

I was in the Alpha, not in the Beta... yet. Hopefully I get in tonight or tomorrow. Based off the videos of the beta I have watched, the only things that I saw that are in the Beta and not the Alpha were the burn cards, electric smoke and Last Titan Standing mode.

It's been great to see you talk so positively about it. Makes me more excited to finally get my hands on it.

1080p 60fps makes all the difference in the world (assuming your native res is that of course).

That was glorious.

I've been told that you need win 8-8.1 to play..is this true?

Nope, Windows 7 supported as well. What is required is a 64-bit OS (Ram is still 4gb minimum tho)
 
I have a strange question for those who have played it - how's the Xbone controller vibration in the triggers? I really enjoyed how vibration enhanced Forza 5, you could really feel the friction of the tires, etc. I'm curious and excited to see how the trigger vibration could fit with a shooter like this.
 
I have to say, when Titanfall was first announced and I heard impressions, I didn't really care about it. I really like Call of Duty, but I figured this would just be another clone. My opinion has mostly stayed the same as we got closer to release, with little details making me slightly more excited for it. Then yesterday I watched the Giant Bomb video on it... and now I'm super pumped.

I really hope the PC community for the game has staying power. Only a few months later, the number of people playing Ghosts online is paltry.

I agree there was no trigger vibration in the alpha really hope it's something in the game

Hrmm...maybe they could use it to show some pilots trying to rodeo you, or overheating/getting locked-on etc. Outside of the normal explosions and stuff using rumble, I am sure they could make some interesting bits. :D
