Titanfall Beta (PC/Xbone) Impressions (No Key Begging/Trading or I will ban you!)

Anyone else have the problem where you try to start the game and it's just black? It goes through EA's and Respawns logo and then it just black. Any fixes?
 
Yeah, seems to be a an issue at the moment. I actually was playing during the downtime, seems like those that were online could stay on while others getting on can't connect.

Yeah, a few people have responded to me on twitter saying as much. Couple are playing because they haven't quit yet and others can't get on a server like us. Well, that sucks.
 
So, I got to play the tutorial a couple of minutes ago, but I had an awful bug which made the characters and weapons be elastic (a common physics bug), and I couldn't see shit. I hope it won't happen in a multiplayer match.

Did this happen to anyone else?

Not here. Not yet, anyway.

And how long is it really going to take MS to fix these servers? Dafuq.

Someone else had it on one of these TF threads. They posted a screenshot of it.
 
Servers were up. tried two matches.

So game seems very fun and fast. Only thing i am disliking is titans fight. I have an old ass pc q6600 quad core with 4gb ram and AMD6890. Beta is running like ass. Mostly it stays over 30 fps on lowest settings and 720p res but there is chugging inbetween. don't know why is that .

Also noob question how do u activate sheild which attracts bullets and then throw them ?
 
On the issue of the smart pistol I would say the base smart pistol is fine. It is the amped version that is pretty sick. :)

Yup. Just finished playing few minutes ago. As soon as I want offline, it stayed that way.

btw. When I jump on a back of someone's titan, what should I do? Should I shoot at it? Melee it? Oh, and can I get off it?

Shoot it of course.

And once you feel the Titan you're on kneeling, that means the guy that you boarded is getting out to shoot you off. That's your cue to jump off it and either run away or kill the guy getting out.
 
I've been waiting all day on this and now that I get in the servers are down... Man, I have the worst luck.

Well, let's wait then. Hopefully they will fix it quickly.
 
Managed to play a few rounds before servers went down again, really enjoyed it.

Also, Titanfall is not an ugly game by any stretch of the imagination. It's certainly plain, but the art direction is decent and there aren't many glaring flaws with the visuals.
 
I wish it would let me play the training while the servers are down. Gonna be a bummer to get the servers up and then have to do the training.

The most important question of our time (this one coming up) is about to be asked by the most important member of our forum (yours truly)...

Can you rip out an I-beam from a dilapidated building and bonk/impale Titans and humans over the head with them? For the love of god say yes, because if no, then I question Respawns dedication to bonking things with heavy metal...
