Guys I am going to wake up in the morning and then like four hours later reviews will be out.

Off-Topic but I fucking love this gif, no idea of its origin/context though

Only seen a few maps but they look great. Very unique in their design

It's all just part of the ritual of a new game. I've always enjoyed reading game reviews since I was a kid picking up magazines off the newsstands.

I've been ready for Titanfall for years, but my body isn't ready for the reviews.
The reviews will be fine. The review thread will be a hot mess. I mean, usually a reviewer has the advantage of playing through shit we haven't seen - and that is not the case here. We know what this game is so reading reviews will be for checking out opinions only.

Man, your rig should be able to absolutely handle it. GTX 690 is pretty beefy, it seems to be different for everyone in the red and green sides, but what worked for me was forcing v-sync and triple buffering in RadeonPro. I was able to maintain 120fps just fine with everything maxed and AA at 2xEQ.

Prior to doing this in RadeonPro, for some reason Titanfall only allowed me to choose double buffered v-sync (the beta let me choose tripled buffering though), and it was stuttering like a mother fucker.

For reference I am on a 2500k@4.6GHz and an overclocked R9 290X playing on 2560x1440 resolution.

Good tip. I forced triple buffering and it's definitely smoother now. Thanks!

Looking through the video config file, just notice the decal value in the release version is now set to 256 when set to high. The thing is, when set to low its also 256 - in the beta low was 256, and high was 2048.

Can anyone else confirm this isn't working? (in game the decal value refers to the impact marks setting).

You can find the file with the values in Documents/Respawn/Titanfall/Local/VideoConfig - setting.r_decals

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
I'm addicted to Rodeoing, it's kind of a crap way to take out Titans but damned if it isn't stylish.

It is the best way to take out titans if you know what you are doing.

rodeo till pilot gets out, call your own titan directly under you and jump off. :)

Their friends keep shooting me :(

There was one Epilogue where I had a guy rodeo'd and he turned his back to another Titan in order to let him hit me. Dis teamwork 2gud4me.

Had a great night playing this, the rest of the maps seem just as well made as Angel City and Fracture. Really liked Relic, Outpost and Airbase but I've still not played them all yet! Love them ziplines as well, managed to gun down a pilot while zipping on by.

Hope the game has actual matchmaking when it's launched, got paired up with players well over and under ranked all night. Obviously were not meant to be on yet so the system might not be properly in place yet, but it would suck if it's just like most matchmaking that throws you into random games without using rank. Also hoping for a mercenary playlist down the line as getting team rolled isn't that fun!

Edit: I'm finally a member! Titanfall christening is glorious!

Game is awesome. Performance still a bit iffy, but nothing that interferes with gameplay.


Campaign is a solid and enjoyable concept. Can't wait to see how they expand on it in Titanfall 2.

Can you talk more about the campaign? Is it just cutscenes added to standard attrition game or is it more?

I've been having trouble with campaign. It just keeps searching but doesn't find people.

Fake edit: Oh there we go I got some teammates, now just need some enemies :)

Gotta unlock that Strider chassis.
 
I found out a few days ago that one of my best friends is getting the Xbox One Titanfall bundle, so I guess I'll buy this come Tuesday since I will have a friend to play it with. I still haven't played any games on my Xbox One, though that is due to lack of time, not interest.

I didn't get a chance to play the beta and have barely followed the game, so I'm extra excited to see everything it has to offer. I haven't gotten deep into a multiplayer FPS in quite some time.
