The housing level is the most ingenuis level design I have seen in an fps all generation. Seriously elite stuff so far in the campaign.
He is presumably referring to the person that can't find CTF matches.
But yeah, there's a lot of people on PC (a little less than some of the figures people are reporting for PS4), but nobody seems to be playing a few modes already.
Having an absolute blast with the game.
Felt the same way about the original but, it's one of those multiplayer games that just always feels fun. It's an absolute blast every time you boot it up.
Attrition does feel "off" but not so much that I won't play it. That was my default mode in the first game. It won't be this time but I'll still visit it.
LOVE the Networks feature. It's nice to be able to have a constant source of likeminded people to just hop into games with, and it's nice that the game facilitates that to a degree.
On the subject of player numbers, no problems here on Xbox One from the UK. Played games of Attrition, Amped Hardpoint, Bounty Hunter and Free For All. The latter was the least populated with about 89 players in, but I was still in a game within a minute.

I've been sticking with Attrition. I wanted to get one more game in last night and got invited to a TitanGAF group who did Bounty Hunt. I had no idea how the rules worked, ended up with the most kills and by far the least points.

What do you mean by lifeless and are you talking single player or multiplayer?

Could anyone who disliked the beta highlight any major changes they made? Really disliked the beta, but reviews are really good for it.

MP. I keep trying to play it, but the maps feel bland and the action feels limited. I was really wanting to like this. Got it on pc and x1 but I just find it to be pretty dull and empty so far.
How's the population on XB1 so far? Would get it on PC but worried about the community going really fast (which happened with TF1 PC when I was playing 
.) I would get it on PS4, but I just recently bought an Elite controller for my Xbox 1 so I've been wanting to put that to use (and give my xbox some much needed gaming time). I don't care if it's super populated or anything, but just populated enough to where it's easy to find games between the different modes and stuff.

I think from a gameplay perspective they will double down on the more portal esque elements, they were the highlights of the campaign for many people. Personally, I'm hoping they find ways to introduce other MP only mechanics into the campaign, such as the grappling hook and stim boost. They could design some very cool puzzle/platforming scenarios around these mechanics. I agree that it would be great to have some
pilot vs titan combat
Narratively speaking, I have no idea where they'll take it. I actually found the relationship between Jack and BT way more interesting than anything to do with the war or the different factions.

I'm having an absolute blast with this. It's a great "oh shit, did that just happen?" multiplayer game. I know we have a lot of doomsayers, but i'm hoping it can maintain a decent player base because I can see myself getting a lot of hours out of this. I haven't been this hooked on a multiplayer shooter since MW2.

XB1 is most popular. PC is lowest.
Having a blast with the MP, played some Bounty Hunt games this morning and I love it, and I'm much better in this than I expected, managet to get the highest score/number or kills in most of the games. I'm not having any trouble with the matchmaking, it's almost instant (UK)

My hope is that people had a wait and see mentality with this game because of how quickly the player base fell off with the first one. The reviews have been overwhelmingly positive, and I personally have had no issues finding games on PS4.
I think people are just eager to see this game fail, as can be noted by the 5 threads that have popped up about EA's stock forecast being downgraded because of projected Titanfall 2 sales.
Wait you can?! Gotta try that on a replay.

I was
sad in the end, but i saw the after credit scene. BT maybe? I hate cliffhangers. 
sorry, that's gotta be user error.
Seriously? i'll give campaign another spin on the extreme setting.
Yeah I think something is going on with the pc servers right now. Last night I tried playing and got this:
Tried playing attrition - 0 players in your region. huh, that's weird... guess pc really is dead.
Thirty minutes later, tried again - 96 people online. Cool, now I can find a game.
after that game I try looking for another one, it tells me there is 15000 people online.

I assume you played the first one. The bots aren't the same in 2. In 1 they made the maps feel alive and I think the little introductions at the start added a lot too, it made you feel like you were being dropped into a battle that's been going on for a while.
I find it hard to explain but titanfall 1 did a better job at making it feel like there's a huge battle going on. Titanfall 2 just kinda feels like the start of a battle and never really takes off before it ends.
I just hope this was a design choice and hopefully will come back for titanfall 3 and not a limitation to not using solely azure any more.
this happened with the original game at times as well. it's simply a server error or something.
Well its not same in EU then I guess, asked friend and he said he had no problems finding matches any time of day.

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
So the campaign is really great so far, even though the boss battles are too easy even on Hard difficulty. The platforming section in the level where you have to activate that comms beacon was perfectly done, and the overall level design is great.
I just started Trial By Fire, and now I want first person titanfalls in MP.

I think Hardpoint is the problem, m8
Kill stuff
Acquire money
Deposit money when banks are open
whaaat. the stim robot looks cool as shit. the best looking pilot is the grapple pilot now though
huh? what don't you understand?
Pretty much. Said the same thing when the screen shots of modes released. everything should be all on one page I think. Same is kinda true for camos too.
How is the PC population? I bought it on Xbox one, but I'm really not liking playing with a controller. I also play 90% of the time through Xbox remote play which is a much bigger issue for this game than I anticipated.
I'm considering buying a PC copy, but want to make sure the PC population is there.

PC has the lowest population.

Game is definitely not lifeless. But the map design compared to the original seems larger in terms of scale to accommodate the titans.
The first game had a lot of maps that were smaller so it always feel frantic, that design seems to be toned back.
It's an adjustment for people like myself that played the hell out of the first game.

Try finding something in CTF, LTS, 8v8, or any mode that isnt the default.
Two phases. Phase 1, kill enemies for money. Different enemies have different values (bounties).
Keep killing to collect more and more money. Dying cuts your collected money.
Phase 2: Bank opens. Rush to bank to deposit money to score.
Repeat.
Every time you repeat, it's a different wave of more valuable A.I to kill, and they have bigger bounties. Some are special, like A.I controlled Titans.
Numbers are alright but some modes are already barren at non prime time. Seems like everyone's playing Bounty Hunt, Attrition, and Hardpoints mainly.
Disclaimer: Have only played at non peak hours so far, I have a weird sleep schedule.
I know. Was just wondering how low or if there's somewhere I could see the actual player count. It had terrible legs on PC with the first game and I feel it's going to have even worse legs this time based on its release date.

PC pop isn't there because no one wants to buy the PC version because they're all concerned about pop-size.
