Why do I get the feeling that the Xbox One/360 has something to do with this?
Titanfall has maximum player count of 12 (alongside AI) [Respawn comments post #558]
- Thread starter Fracas
- Start date
TO WIN TITANFALL YOU MUST KILL ME, JOHN ROMERO!
Seriously, I love the enthusiasm but I haven't heard hyperbole like that since the mid nineties.
This quote absolutely has to be the new "have you seen Titanfall?"
Could be. Neither the 360 or the Xbox One can do over 12 players at the same time! We need Next-next-Gen asap
It's a good one, Titanfall has been a meme magnet at this point.
Titanfall was going to save the XB1 but it was too exciting, people couldn't play long enough to appreciate it.
I was going to see titanfall but I got too excited.
etc etc.

Its strange because its not like they have been cagey about the player count.
They have always said in interviews that they are focussing on smaller player count with bots.
I've never heard them mention more than 7v7 as a possibility.
So how do you explain the majority of this thread? Ignorance?
Ahahahahahahahaah at people who are like
"Oooh noez it is a game witha small playercount and it is fastpaced, I will be not able to snipe 5 unaware guys like in Battlefield, this game actually takes skill wuaawuawuaah"
Get a grip, we need fastpaced twitch shooters. Big team shooters are the cancer and casualization of the genre.
I hope there is also a 4v4 mode.

I thought MGS owned that IP? Could be utterly wrong though.
I dunno... because you'd like that to be it?
I guess. A lot of people's knowledge about this game seems to stop at the "have you seen Titanfall" meme. For a game that is supposed to be out in a couple of months we don't know a lot about it though. I guess the media blitz is not that far off.
Servers.
Just played Planetside 2 and logged off to see this news that Titanfall is only max 6vs6. Being a huge mech fan, I am very disappointed. I was expecting the standard 12vs12 or 16vs16. Not saying that 6vs6 is bad as an established fact, just my personal taste prefers more players. I never enjoyed low player count competitive MP games as much as high player count competitive MP games. It is a clear sign that I will not enjoy Titanfall as much if there are less players. I am guessing that Titanfall is going the MOBAs path where you are a "hero" and there are AI minions on the map. Kind of like LoL.

Infinite power of the cloud
It's impossible to say that for sure. I've been rewatching the Angel City footage very closely, and I think there may only be six players per side in that build.
At the start of the video we can see 8 player icons on the mini-map, but two of them are actually slightly different (lighter blue, more angular, arrow head shape), I'm guessing they denote Titans, not actual players. The Titan holding the manhole cover is probably being driven by AI.
Later on we see what would appear to be more than 6 player characters from one team onscreen at once, but some of them appear as small blue dots on the map, meaning they are probably just AI that look similar to pilots.
I watched the whole video just staring at the mini map, and there are never more than 6 player icons for the blue team.
I have to put it down to that. People watched the E3 reveal and just mistook all the AI teammates for players.
In this case, it's probably deserved. There's a disgusting amount of people that tried to posit the gameplay design to hardware limitations.

This is beautiful. But who knows, maybe the dev guy has some health issues and Titanfall is really that exciting...
I haven't seen Titanfall yet.

pretty much
Kind of expected that from the gaming media, its ironic how ignorant they can be.
Titanfall has always had dedicated servers. That is what Microsoft refers to when they mention 'the cloud.'
Not a stupid question at all, they have intentionally made that a point of confusion. Microsoft, not Respawn.

What? Where?
The person who has a chip on his shoulder is the guy moaning and bitching about campers , campers is a word used by people who have no tactical ability and instead of getting better at the game come to forums and moan about camping
You smell
Actually green tea

I take it little enjoyed Gears of War 4v4 online then judging by a lot of these comments?
Titanfall has been the Anti-GAF since it was announced. The responses in this thread don't deviate from the longstanding, baseless hate the game has received all along here.
If the game was designed around 6v6, I'm sure it will be great. MOBA's are 5v5 and exhibit some of the most balanced PvP around. Relax people.

Somebody already answered to it above that its server based multiplayer
Judging by this thread CS 5v5 matches were a bane on multiplayer and 3v3 and 1v1 quake matches were irrelevant and not the least bit fun.

This is great news. 6 vs 6. Beautiful.. Not going to be a bunch of dick wads on the team not going with the flow of the game. Going to be just enough for clan mates on my squad. I can't wait. This news makes me want this game even more. March can't get here soon enough.
Any word on a beta?

I find it more competitive. Small player count makes it more intense imo.
I'm really not that bothered with this.

It's funny actually. Half the people here are in disbelief at how people can be so fucked up (to put it lightly), and the other half are just beyond saving. One of the best threads of all time, it should win an award.
I still think the Evolve thread yesterday was more entertaining , proclaiming a game dead based on a name and early box art ftw
Love it. GAF never disappoints.
DKo5 , any word on a Beta ?

5v5 was one of the many reasons that uncharted 2 had some of the best MP last gen.
I enjoy big team games, but smaller and more balanced games are superior imo.

What MP online games were you playing in 1999 that did what TF does?
Now this? Why multiple post in this thread? Were you getting this on the PC or something? You're not getting an Xbox One. You make fun of it all the time, and yet you have a problem on this being 6 vs 6? Can't say I'm not surprised. You keep calling this half a game on other places out there and I guess you just don't get how this game is supposed to be.
It's called design choice. So all games that don't have a MP mode with their SP mode are half finished games? I think not. Again, funny to see your interest in this title. You must be getting it for your PC, well.. not anymore, because you know now that it's 6 vs 6 you don't approve now. LMAO.. classic!
I very highly doubt any MechWarrior game ever has had the similar game play Titanfall is aiming for.

I felt they took a step back with UC3 but I agree 2 was great fun, I was hooked since the beta. Gears was another one which had some brilliance.
