Think about it this way. When the server is down, it'll make you appreciate the game that much more when they're back up.

Hilarious.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Anyone change their sprint settings? Left mine at default, haven't tried the others.

On Delayed. Best option IMO.

EDIT:
Vince just tweeted they would extend the beta if the servers are down until tomorrow.

 

[Zyae]

Servers will be down. This is why it is important to have an offline mode.

Or not because their vision of the game was a multiplayer one, and they decided to focus on that instead of including a half assed single player. Pretty sure its a beta for a reason..

 

[Falifax]

Breaking my heart like this on Valentine's day, MS.

Can you explain to me why there's no offline bot mode at least? You'd think that could have been a part of their vision.

because the release date is gonna be smooth sailing and I got a bridge to sell you

 

[Deadbeat]

No because the game has such complex calculations for the game which is why there isnt community hosted servers and the game only works due to the power of the cloud.

The bots are controlled by the server hosting the players. This isn't like Ghosts or BOII where the AI is programmed in.

Can you imagine what an always online future would have been like for daily game releases? Would have been so amazing.

I feel like we should all have friendly wager's over whether Titanfall will have launch day server issues.

can i use a ps3 controller for titanfall pc beta?

that would be the safest bet in history

Good point. From what I hear the existing bot AI is really complex so I can see why this would be an issue. Of course there's no way they could possibly get around this.

I'm waiting on YouTube to finish compressing the crap out of my Twitch.tv stream before it crashed for you guys wanting to see this in action.

The game is going down. The bet should be how long it has problems.

 

[Jtrizzy]

can i use a ps3 controller for titanfall pc beta?

you'd need 3rd party software to emulate the 360 controller. Last one I tried gave me spyware and is pain in the ass to remove.

 

[firehawk12]

Servers dead during a beta? So much for the power of the cloud.

 

[Suburban_Nooblet]

Valentines.. here I sit.... while my wife games her heart out on Civ V next to me and I refresh GAF and listen to Spotify awaiting the return of ye mighty server.

Spoiler

I'm just fuckin' with ya my life is awesome

 

[LNBL]

EA servers. If you're gonna troll, at least be smarter about it.

 

[Mondy]

And will EA lengthen the Beta to make up for this? Nope.jpg.

 

[Fornaximus]

They're using Microsoft's servers for all versions? So this is what infinite cloud power feels like.

 

[BiggNife]

Finally got home from work excited to play the beta

Downloaded client

Eagerly start it up

"No servers found"

 

[Don Lapre]

Also no text chat a month from release.

 

[BY2K]

So while we wait...

What are YOUR video setting looking like, you guys?

 

[VisceralBowl]

And will EA lengthen the Beta to make up for this?

Yes

Spoiler

Most likely not

 

[The Cowboy]

I kinda like the delayed setting, it gives the sense of building up your speed as you go.

 

[ILoveBish]

Just gonna sleep now, will try it more once i wake up and hopefully it works.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

I saw it flash that it was connect to one of five matches...then back to this loop : /

 

[ShinAmano]

finally get home and finish installing

NO SERVERS FOUND

welcome to the orthian future

same wtf

 

[N.Domixis]

Yes

Spoiler

Most likely not

uhh, that implies it could be down until tomorrow.

 

[Dave_6]

Lovely. Finally get home from work and get it installed; now the servers are down. LOL.

 

[Dead]

was hoping to titanfall a bit when I came home today ;_;

 

[DopeyFish]

I saw it flash that it was connect to one of five matches...then back to this loop : /

i wonder how long those 5 servers will stay up for

i swear if all those jerks leave the game without someone joining... there will be blood! BLOOD!

 

[Suburban_Nooblet]

All you working class people are ruining it for the rest of us who have been playing all day.

 

[Amir0x]

The game is going down. The bet should be how long it has problems.

Alright, the game will have server problems upon launch for 3 days on and off. Who else is going to take that bet and go under or over?

There is no prize other than bragging rights, no ban bets or anything

 

[cluto]

Every platform is using MS servers.

Alright, I'll admit when I'm wrong -- especially because I've been called out by Shawn Elliott. Since when has M Dollar Sign ever run servers for a PC version of an EA game?

 

[PAULINK]

ftfty

 

[meanspartan]

Think they extend the beta if its down for too much longer?

 

[BBQMan]

Thank god this game uses the "cloud". Its going to be like an MMO on release disconnection issues everywhere.

 

[antitrop]

Anyone change their sprint settings? Left mine at default, haven't tried the others.

Delayed for life.

 

[Fracas]

So while we wait...

What are YOUR video setting looking like, you guys?

Now that I fixed the stuttering I had earlier, I can run it at 1600x900 with medium settings and hit 40-60fps. I'm using a laptop with a 650m and i7.

If only I could play it ;__;

 

[VisceralBowl]

Yes

 

[je_ssi e]

^Try this!

They're using Microsoft's servers for all versions? So this is what infinite cloud power feels like.

It even shows something about connecting to XBOX LIVE on the PC version. Aha.

And, maaaan... I should have never left that room I was in. I regret this.

Huh really, I have around the same specs. Maybe I should give the pc beta a go.

 

[Spinning Plates]

Server issues seem like a ready made excuse to delay the 360 version a further 2 - 3 weeks.

 

[KingKong]

Jesus how is Origin downloading things this fast, Im getting 16 mb/s when Im lucky to get 6 on Steam

 

[The Cowboy]

So do we think MS killed GFWL, and then hid the remains in PC Titanfall?.

 

[Einchy]

Jesus how is Origin downloading things this fast, Im getting 16 mb/s when Im lucky to get 6 on Steam

My connection is shit, my top speeds on any website or program is about 880kbs tops.

This is what I was getting on there this morning.

Something that would have normally taken me a whole night to download took me less than 2 hours to download.

I was so amazed I had to take a screenshot because I will never see speeds like that again.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

I was getting 20-22 when I normally get 3-4 on Steam.
