Pay to win? What? lol..
Adam Sessler"Titan Fall one of the Most Enjoyable things I've played at a Convention"
- Thread starter timlot
- Start date
I wouldn't be surprised to see a single player campaign in Titanfall 2. At the moment they're just 68 people, if titanfall is a success they'll surely expand bigtime.
Again, I'd really like to know how this hype is different from any other hype
What exactly makes it a pile of shit? I've used it for a couple of games including Battlefield and it seems to work just fine.
So yea Respawn own the IP and they'll have a say in what happens for any sequels.

Then Microsoft made a big mistake, MS should have bought Respawn and not deal with EA at all.
To be honest it is merely about venting frustration. I generally ignore the topic, but I guess I can only read so many headlines about it and hear about it in countless podcasts so many times before I have to vent.
so that makes it even more realistic that ms could buy out the company or ip if they wanted.

there's really only 2 ways MS can guarantee Titanfall total exclusivity..
buy the IP from Respawn (but this might lead to a bidding war between EA / MS)
or
buy Respawn (again, could lead to a bidding war between them and EA)
as many have said, it's up to Respawn to decide what to do with the IP, but as EA are their publishers I fully expect a PS4 port at some point in the future...
It's a bit like Mass Effect again, and how many people swore blind that would never see the light of day on PS3?

It's on PC, as well.
I actually agree with this. Seems like every thread even remotely saying something positive about Xbox One gets shit on within the first five comments. Stupid ass fanboys.

Exactly, you like money, I like money, respawn likes money too.

Mass effect was Microsoft fault, they didn't buy Bioware and let EA beat them to it.

I didn't like this video he did after E3, he even references a fucking kotaku clickbait article for christs sake!

IIRC the bullet magnetism thing was introduced to compensate for P2P playing, where someone with 'host advantage' would have such a ridiculous advantage over everyone else as to basically put them in 'god mode'.
Since there will be dedicated servers for XB1 (and I'll put money on dedicated servers for PS4 shooters via some Rackspace deal or something too), I don't think bullet magnetism and aim assist will be as much of a factor if at all. Maybe minimal aim assist but zero magnetism.
I highly doubt they would ever sell the IP or their company. This is the second time those guys have reformed a whole new studio due to disputes with the publisher. MS will have to make a deal with them for specific games in order to keep it exclusive, and that is going to cost MS a hell of a lot of money if the game takes off like it probably will.

I'm glad MS didn't buy Bioware too, not that their time with EA has been stellar mind....
which is why it will probably end up on PS4 at some point...
ItAintEasyBeinCheesy
it's 4th of July in my asshole
Every time I wanted to use it it would want an update for the client.... then the game. Then once you got it in it was slow. Might be better now but hell if I'm reinstalling it.
Wut?

So basically, forum hype = genuine, hype from people who've actually played it = manufactured.
This is...troublesome.

This and watchdog seem like games that are going to be forced to be successful, no matter the actual quality. Like Asscreed and GTAIV before them.
Hope to get proven wrong.

I'd be really interested to see how they handle a single-player campaign, because with the added character movement, it doesn't seem like they would be able to make the roller-coaster setpieces as we know them work and the combat scenarios would have to be different, dealing more with vertical space than the relatively flat level design in CoD.

Let's not discuss the politics and business behind Titanfall/Respawn/EA/MS.
It's literally tales from my ass, in terms of what could potentially happen behind the scenes. We have no insight at all to any of these. I mean, certainly. MS can afford to buy Titanfall, but the same can be said for any big publisher/company willing to throw the cash. And whether or not they want to be bought is a different matter altogether.
Yeah, Titanfall seems purely designed for multiplayer in arena-style set-pieces that allow for the best combination of jetpack wallrunners + mechs. From the offset, it's kinda... hard to imagine how the experience can be made into a single player campaign without it being pseudo-multiplayer.

Pretty much. If it isn't force fed media hype then I'm already worried about next generation where so far nothing is more fun than FPS #1,022.
Force fed? Jesus fucking Christ. You see the title of the article/thread/video, and move on.
God damn.

Seeing the Titan sit up after being knocked down amazes me - not sure why. I wonder if that's just part of the death animation or if it's actually still controllable at that point.

Its looks like the original Tribes with mechs and more detailed maps. I'm all in!!
The only thing that's annoying me about this video is how blue eyed Sessler is approaching the game. It'll get just as competitive as every multiplayer game, and of course people will know the maps better than the casual player and beat the crap out of good old Sess a few weeks (or days) into the game. It'll get just as serious as every other successful competitive multiplayer game and that's why he'll probably stop playing quickly. I just don't share his optimism that this game won't fall into the same trap, and I think the foundation he's basing his assumption on is very weak.
I think they may buy EAs stake in the series, that's if Titanfall is a success for the Xbox.
Edit. It wouldn't surprise me if the game does go multiplatform or if it stays exclusive either way
Nah it's just a handful of trolls that are attempting to de-hype the game. We've had forum hype, hand-on gaming time from both players and journos and multiple 'awards' .. there's pretty much no doubt that this game is exciting a lot of people.

works in both ways,a lot of people are hiper defensive because its the big xbox console exclusive
a lot of complains arent with the game,but with the press hiperbole,you know BEST THING EVARRR,OSCAR WORTHY HISTORY,CITIZEN KANE etc etc
so calling trolls to people who are suspicius about the gaming press dont make anyone a favour,also the majorn nelson meme "have you seen titan fall" rub a lot of people on the wrong way
i repeat ,for me the game looks decent,good character design,but i dint see anything speciall neither on the tech and mechanics side,will try on my pc to see if i was wrong
My criticisms are towards the press hype.
Cod with better mobility and mechs isn't enough for me to give a shit about a multiplayer shooter that doesn't have a campaign.
That combined with EA likely to add some really gross microtransactions means I don't think any amount of games press circle jerk could make me give a shit about titanfall.

Not saying Titalfall won't be a great game, but there's a reason Adam Sessler will never say a bad thing about it:
Abbie Heppe
They worked together at G4 and are really close friends. Now she works for Respawn.
He's be dissing his friend's hard work if he didn't praise it.
Manufactured hype is confirmed!!!
Nightengale

Whether or not EA will want to sell it is a whole different matter.
Wasn't the press equally excited after the Last of Us E3 demo, or the Bioshock infinite presentation? But I don't remember people calling that fake hype
Microtransactions are a "no-go" for Respawn
See, I don't agree that it's all hyperbole. They've all played it. They're doing the job we as games enthusiasts want them to do. And people don't like it, because they all seem to have the same opinion on a game?
Doritosgate fall out.

Regardless of how good Titanfall may or may not be, a multiplayer only title for full retail price was an unacceptable proposition this gen (Even on platforms where you didn't have to also pay for said multiplayer as well), and I don't see why it shouldn't be unacceptable next gen as well.
Cannot see any good reason for this to not be a downloadable title. Or at least a lower RRP release.
