Support NeoGAF

What data center is everyone on? I can't seem to find people to play with.

 

[Necrovex]

Same here. $33.78 is good enough for me.

Damn, this is really tempting. I usually wait for $30 to buy a game on PC, but $33 is awfully tempting for a game I dug during the beta.

You need to join a lobby first, MM doesn't work at the moment it appears.

 

[void666]

I managed to play by join a friend on origin. Played for a few rounds then everyone got kicked or whatever.

Game didn't feel smooth at all. Everything on high. Textures on very high. Tried with and without vsync.

When can we expect the first reviews? Do we now the date of the review embargo?

I believe it is 9pm pacific time on Monday the 10th.

Those maps with water on them...does it slow you down to run through it?

US West campaign is the only thing that has worked for me

 

[Caffeine]

lets not forget today is daylight savings time move your clocks forward an hour! except arizona.

 

[Kyne]

I still have them. Pm me for details.

 

[Bedameister]

Monday 9am PST.

great. I'm very excited for the reviews somehow. It's strange. I have no interest in playing this game but still I want to know how people like it and what it's about.

 

[dab0ne]

Is anyone else getting the Collector's Edition from Target? I ordered the PC version and it's back ordered. I called and they said the estimated delivery is April 22nd

 

[Kyne]

Target employee here, we're not getting them in the store anytime soon.

 

[...Scatter...]

MS Store near me is having a launch party, giving away $2,000 in prizes and catering food. I might head over there to check it out and see if I can score some free swag. And pick up my preorder of course, scored a $10 gift card for that.

I ordered online when they were available. Just wondering if anyone else has to wait too.

 

[oti]

Bought a key from that Russian deal. Haven't played a FPS since forever. Excited.

1) You sit in a lobby and get told exposition. Then briefly warp in to the map with a little more exposition. Play either Domination or TDM then fly out with a little more exposition. Basically it's a complete waste of space and time, I have no idea why they put it in.

2) They just sit there and occasionally interact with NPCs.

both sound disappointing but the core game is so good, that's fine.

I had to manually change the setting on GAF despite having it set to automatic.

 

[Kid Ska]

Pre-loading now oh god can't contain the hype

 

[slash3584]

Is playing this on origin with the modified files banneable?

 

[Ape]

Is anyone going to the Santa Monica Gamestop to meet the devs for the midnight launch?

 

[The Elite]

Is playing this on origin with the modified files banneable?

No one has been banned AFAIK but Respawn has advised against it.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Anybody streaming this currently?

I... *scratches neck* ...i need a fix man!

[Camper182]

bought on origin for 28 euros via a mexican VPN, pretty excited, the game is preloaded and installed.

So do we have the OK to stream this to Twitch now or has this one just not been caught?

 

[legacyzero]

Can I play this yet?

 

[OverturePT]

Can I play this yet?

Seriously... I need this game yesterday.

Samesies. Me and a buddy are going to the store in Tampa. It sounded pretty banging to be quite honest, I feel like not a ton of people are going to show up, so we've probably got a good chance to win something. And if a ton of people do show up, free food and party!

 

[therealminime]

So can you still not rename custom classes? That seems like a weird oversight.

 

[BruiserBear]

Any stores near Chicago selling the XB1 version early?

 

[Shade360]

Have we had a break down of the PC settings?

Any real changes from the beta, in term of graphic settings at all?

 

[Kajiba]

Watching someone on twitch play this right now. I like how the maps look.

 

[The Cowboy]

From the few people I've asked, there seems to be zero changes since the beta and not extra optimisation at all. So what you saw and also got in terms of performance in the beta is what your likely gonna get now.

I'm kinda disappointed to be honest, the beta was super fun but the game requires far to much (CPU/GPU) for what it offers in terms of visuals and effects, I was really hoping it was an earlier build for the beta and the final build was getting some really good optimisation improvements (especially in the insane textures requiring so much space for how they look).

Seems nothing changed. Triple Bufferng is now Double though. Same issues with Vsync and without.

 

[Definity]

Only a matter of time until this stream is axed by EA ninjas. Respawn doesn't want anyone to stream just yet.

 

[ACE 1991]

Does anyone know if the slickdeals offer will be available tomorrow after the review embargo lifts?

I'm gonna be annoyed if the XB1 version has no additional optimizations over the beta. People from Respawn stated otherwise on Twitter.

 

[The Cowboy]

Wait what?, they removed triple buffering - why on earth would they remove that as an option?.

I bet they didn't even fix the game resetting back to your desktop resolution even if you change it in game, this annoyed me so much in the beta as I run my desktop at a slightly lower res to how I run game and every single time I started titanfall I had to change it back again.

I'm gonna be annoyed if the XB1 version has no additional optimizations over the beta. People from Respawn stated otherwise on Twitter.

This is why I was hoping the PC version wasn't final to, they said the Xbox one version wasn't and was getting performance improvements so I was kinda hoping the same was going to happen for the PC.

Unfortunately it isn't looking good, and it looks likely to perform exactly the same as it did.

 

[legacyzero]

Looks like the matches are lasting quite a bit longer now. That's great.

 

[Darksol]

I expect a great deal of hyperbole from both sides. I think there will be a large camp of people who overpraise the game, but I also think there will be some unjustly negative reviews simply because this is MS's big "it" game. I'm more interested in how people feel three months from now.

That being said, I look forward to reading the reviews (^-^)

 

[ChuckNyce]

That's what I figured. In the meantime, I've got some nifty vids of the maps if anyone wants to take a look:

Relic
BoneYard

Processing a few others now, should hopefully be done soon.

 

[SlasherJPC]

So my gamestop got an extra collectors edition and they put my name on it, but I'm starting to think it's not worth that asking price and the hype is just getting to me. Someone slap the shit out of me now!

 

[VisceralBowl]

Well Nvidia is bound to get a driver. AMD will probably follow suit. Performance will be better by at least a little in the near future.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Anyone know how Titanfall uses the impulse triggers on the Xbox One? Do they use them at all... is it even noticeable?

 

[iamjohn]

Dying to play this game. So hard not to use that Titanfallearly.exe file.

Cheers for the info..

Yeah I was hoping for optimisation, shadows on anything other than LOW - made the game time out and not connect, for some silly reason...

Oh well

i just got a pc with a gtx 780 and i5 3570. i'm expecting to play this game at 1080p 60 maxed out. realistic? also what do you mean by insane textures taking so much space? ref to the size of the install or something else?

Same here

Same here

Less than 24 hours to go. We can do this! Right?....
