So who's doing the review thread? Ill be awake band can if nobody was going to, but id prefer not to.

 

[REV 09]

Does anyone know if there's any sort of lobby balancing that happens?

Don't think so.

 

[Nyteshade517]

Does anyone know if there's any sort of lobby balancing that happens?

From the few impressions that people have given there is no balancing or team switching in the lobbies.

 

[HelloMeow]

so can you really use a vpn to play in 3 hours ??? does it unlock at 8am in korea?

No. In about 18 hours.

I could do it if nobody else is. I can make it the same style as the Event thread.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

I don't really care what people have to say about the game for the most part. I've played it, I know it's fun, and I'll enjoy many hours with it. I just hope that all of us Titanfall fans in this thread are mature enough to handle middling or negative reviews with grace and not get mad at someone else's opinion. That's all I can really ask for.

I don't care either. Expecting 6-8s mostly, with the odd 9.

Nice, do it for sure.

 

[ElTorro]

Nah, I'd be really surprised to see anything lower than 8 with most reviews averaging around 9. The pre-release impressions of journalists have just been too positive for anything else.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Nice, do it for sure.

Do we know if anybody else is doing it? I won't start until I know.

 

[je_ssi e]

That sucks.
I was hoping that would have changed for the full release.

Looks like if I get mollywhopped it's time to find a new lobby.

 

[antitrop]

6-8s would be absolutely disastrous, considering CoD: Ghosts has a 78.

 

[Milennia]

Nope thats why i asked.

 

[CreepingFear]

Looks like if I get mollywhopped it's time to find a new lobby.

That's what I did in beta after getting destroyed by the same team 2-3 times in a row.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

The game just seems to generate so much hate. Thinking some reviewers might subconsciously let that creep into their reviews.

 

[CreepingFear]

I think 8's. Would be 9's but you're going to get reviewers complaining about no single player story.

 

[HelloMeow]

There will undoubtedly be a couple of attention whores.

 

[Saren is Bad]

You can, but you're going to be playing a multiplayer only game with very, very few people.

I'm playing it right now and there's quite a few people on it seems.

 

[je_ssi e]

That's what I did in beta after getting destroyed by the same team 2-3 times in a row.

Yep. Aha.
I ate some of those losses hoping my team(s) had a chance, but you just know there's no hope after a few games.

Hopefully they add team scrambling in the future.

 

[kazebyaka]

I'm guessing it'll be a 94 average when it's all said and done.

I believe Respawn!

More like 84, if it can get even that high. You can't get 94 with graphics like that.

 

[SapientWolf]

Ok I am getting pretty hyped.

 

[Nyteshade517]

I think 8's. Would be 9's but you're going to get reviewers complaining about no single player story.

I'm fine with reviewers saying they would have liked to see that included but if they take off for that then it's a mistake. They would be taking points off for a mode that was never going to be there. It would be the same if reviewers penalize Infamous for not having MP even though it wasn't made to have one. Just my opinion.

 

[friskykillface]

dunno if I should keep my release day amazon order of use $15 promo code at newegg then get $10 gift card but get the game on Wednesday/Thursday

hmmm

 

[CreepingFear]

I'll probably stay away from the gaming section of GAF starting tomorrow. It's better for my health and I'm not going to let them get myself banned. So find me on Origin: CostanzatheMage

 

[DKo5]

Man really bummed about EA's decision with not releasing the game here anymore. Hope someone locally buys the game via some vpn goodies and checks if there is any region blocking going on with the game itself.

The game does no region check or blocking.

Alright I'll do the review thread. It will go live around 8 am.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Are you trying to kick of an early review battle or something?

 

[Doffen]

6-8s would be absolutely disastrous, considering CoD: Ghosts has a 78.

How the fuck did it manage that?

 

[Jito]

So played a few games now, living up to the hype for me, all the maps have been great so far. Only annoying thing at the moment is high ranked stacked teams already, been against a few players with the wall hack shotgun combo which is annoying.

 

[REV 09]

I thought the beta was ok and was on the fence about getting it, but this game is great!

 

[wotta]

I think the game will average around 80-85 on Metacritic, though can see sites like polygon and ign giving it high marks the way they've been hyping it up.

Early scores will likely be high from mainstream and they'll average out over time to my predicted score.

I think most reviewers are professional enough to judge the game on what it is, though from what those playing early are saying, it may be marked down on the multiplayer campaign and the graphics.

 

[antitrop]

Good question, the game is abominable.

 

[lem0n]

88 Meta, calling it now

You guys are insane.

 

[VisceralBowl]

For sure there is going to be a big divide on the gunplay.

Low TTK + extremely low recoil

I happen to like it despite being a regular Battlefield player that likes the gunplay.

Are you even getting this game dude?

[Blu10]

He's not only getting it, but also reviewing it... Any guesses on what score he is going to give.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Holy shit! That's awesome!

I'm not watching streams because hype level is at max anyway then I see GIFs like this. I want that to be me doing that right now.

Purchased on origin already, reviewing xb1 version. The predicted score is just a gut feeling really now that I know what's on the disc plus early impressions.

 

[Haly]

I wish the Titan's AIs had personalities.

 

[shungokusatsu]

So, so ready for PTO Tuesday. Remodeling the office with a new floor, CAT 7 and HDMI 2.0, but this is what I'm rocking until all the work is complete. It's no MFP setup, but it works

 

[stufte]

Lol. Ok.

Just think of how much higher than a 90 on metacritic Super meat boy could have received! I mean, it doesn't even have real time lighting... and look at those textures!

[Sioen]

Let me guess since he's not mainstream.. 5?
Edit: ment 65

 

[Dabanton]

Isn't he reviewing it for the site he works for? It will certainly be a fair and balanced review no doubt.
