I didn't know they have these reward points now. I thought it is all cash on the marketplace. What's the point of switching them to reward points? Could have just let them stay as Microsoft points instead.

So, 1000 points = $1?

That's what has me confused. Points or cash MS... what is it?!

Guys...reward points have nothing to do with Microsoft points.

It's like reward points on a credit card or buying things and getting a card punched.

Earn so many points and you get a cash credit for it.

It's on the rewards.xbox.com site...the store is based off of actual currency

 

[Diablohead]

rewards.xbox.com now gives you 'points' when you do or buy things if you are signed up to it, buying a season pass right now has a promotion to get 5000 points, and in the scheme every time you get 5000 points they reward you with a few quid, TBH it's not worth it and the value is lower then it used to be last year.

Uhhhhh

the RSPN101 Assault Rifle has a 0.35° spread when ADS

I have never heard of the RSPN assault rifle.. It wasn't even leaked in the files.

Its not the r101c as they're comparing this weapon to that one....

 

[Doffen]

 

[The End]

Just got an e-mail from gamefly, they're sending out keys on the 10th so we can preload ahead of midnight release.

whooooooo

 

[antitrop]

Great embargo time, can't wait.

 

[RazorUK]

It's the dev tag for the R-101C Carbine.

I had it in my info from beta:

Holy shit that was confusing lol.
Thanks for clarifying.

 

[Mrbob]

Isn't that the unlock time on Origin? I'll be too busy playing the game ( hopefully as long as GMG sends out keys early ) than reading reviews.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

Wow... 3 hours before Titanfall releases? Why so long?

This game is either going to get a 6/10 or a 10/10.

 

[RazorUK]

Holy shit that was confusing lol.
Thanks for clarifying.

The wording in the article you linked was a bit confusing. They mentioned 'Carbine' when they meant the C.A.R.SMG.

 

[PoweredBySoy]

Your morals are against saving $5 on optional dlc?

They are very strict.

Like a virgin.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Wow... 3 hours before Titanfall releases? Why so long?

It's the exact time Titanfall releases on the east coast, actually.

 

[HBP]

It's the exact time Titanfall releases on the east coast, actually.

Is this much later than most embargo's? I don't really pay too much attention to them normally.

 

[Milennia]

Yeah completely blew my mind lol.
I guess not everyone can data mine properly
Or as well as you at least.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Not really. South Park was later I believe and that game turned out awesome.

 

[fastballspecial]

I took a personal day on 3/11. If the servers are EA'd I'm going to be upset.

 

[Milennia]

The embargo lifts at 12A.M. EST... Thats my time.

Ill be at gamestop :/
I remember being on line at gamestop when the halo reach reviews hit.

I honestly hate midnight releases now and really hope i can avoid going.
Yet i want a physical copy... Maybe i can just get someone to do em a favor and pick it up for me at midnight.

 

[antitrop]

This is Ryan McCaffery we're talking about here.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

This is Ryan McCaffery we're talking about here.

So 11/10? Mecha Godzilla? The Unicorn? Will finally happen?

Spoiler

I really hope someone gets this reference.

 

[Glass Shark]

South Park's embargo was actually three hours after the game came out. I wish Titanfall's were a little sooner, maybe Monday morning, but it seems reasonable.

 

[antitrop]

Yeah, South Park had such an awful embargo time. I just read the reviews the next morning with my cup of coffee.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

I took a personal day on 3/11. If the servers are EA'd I'm going to be upset.

Servers are all Azure friend, everything should be fine. Although at this point I'm not putting anything past EA.

 

[Milennia]

EA will hijack the azure servers.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

South Park's embargo was actually three hours after the game came out. I wish Titanfall's were a little sooner, maybe Monday morning, but it seems reasonable.

Especially for a multiplayer only game. Respawn is obviously working right up until launch on this game, and the press need time to properly review it.

Servers are all Azure friend, everything should be fine. Although at this point I'm not putting anything past EA.

Hopefully "Azured" or "Titanfalled" doesn't become a word for server malfunctions.

 

[antitrop]

Hopefully, the server issues they sorted out during the Beta will ensure a smooth launch.

 

[Principate]

These game embargoes they get later and later.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

Hopefully, the server issues they sorted out during the Beta will ensure a smooth launch.

Even if they aren't, I had significantly less issues with the Titanfall beta than I did with the BF4 release.

 

[antitrop]

Even if they aren't, I had significantly less issues with the Titanfall beta than I did with the BF4 release.

Yup, other than the large amount of downtime on that Friday evening, the Beta ran perfectly smooth the rest of the way until it went down.

 

[TheOddOne]

Ewww that season pass.

I'll begrudgingly add it to the op later in the week.

 

[Milennia]

Even if they aren't, I had significantly less issues with the Titanfall beta than I did with the BF4 release.

Well.. The battlefield 4 beta had an immense amount LESS of a bug presence than its full release.

However respawn isn't DICE and respawn were rushed I'm assuming.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

These game embargoes they get later and later.

Seriously. Fortunately, I trust gaf more and more every day, so I'm going to preorder this one. Didn't participate in the beta, but this game looks seriously awesome and everyone here seems to agree with that consensus.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

Hopefully "Azured" or "Titanfalled" doesn't become a word for server malfunctions.

Shh! Don't give them any ideas!

Spoiler

If this happens now I'm totally blaming it on you.

 

[Woo-Fu]

Servers are all Azure friend, everything should be fine. Although at this point I'm not putting anything past EA.

Guess that means you didn't play the beta.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

Guess that means you didn't play the beta.

Um, yes I did? Maybe read my quotes above, friend.

 

[Zyae]

Guess that means you didn't play the beta.

Its almost like the beta was a server stress test so they could run the game in a real environment and fix things that caused the outage on the friday to not occur in the full game.

 

[Big_Al]

Anyone done the VPN trick via Origin and got a refund to paypal afterwards ? How long does it take ? Wouldn't mind the deluxe edition via the same method as it's a good price....

 

[shungokusatsu]

Um, yes I did? Maybe read my quotes above, friend.

The beta was down for a 5 hour period.

 

[bidguy]

Guess that means you didn't play the beta.

do you know what a beta is ?

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

The beta was down for a 5 hour period.

Yes, and I don't understand what you are implying.

 

[cool_dude]

That's it...buying the titanfall controller for this game!

 

[1337]

Can someone that played the beta help me out? How long is the average round in Titanfall? Are there capture the flag / king of the hill type modes? Can players of the 360 version play together with people on the One?

 

[Principate]

That's it...buying the titanfall controller for this game!

I see you just had a "fuck it.... I'll do what I want!" moment.

Dont think its been posted on here yet, basically a bunch of old arcade games but titanfall themed . Thanks Respawn!

Attrition rounds are pretty short, less than 10 minutes. Hardpoint maybe a bit longer.
Capture the flag is in, KotH no.
No

 

[antitrop]

The beta was down for a 5 hour period.

A 5 hour period in which they fixed bugs with the servers.

So, you know, the point of the Beta.

It won't ensure a smooth launch, but it at least gives me some hope.

 

[Navy Bean]

Attrition rounds are pretty short, less than 10 minutes. Hardpoint maybe a bit longer.
Capture the flag is in, KotH no.
No

I've never liked capture the flag but with this game I'm intrigued. Could see some epic wall runs...

 

[Mrbob]

Season pass seems to be 24.99.

[Sikamikanico]

I really want the Titanfall Controller. Are GAME the only UK store that do it?
