Titanfall

[Deitz Dittrich]

anybody getting pumped for this game? Looks like a cross between COD and GOW.. I like the fact that the game was designed as a multiplayer game and really has no campaign.. I often feel games revolve around the campaign and the multi is an after thought.. should be interesting..

link to ali-a talking about it.

That video was the first I've seen of gameplay. It does look pretty good, I might try renting it when it comes out, or as they are mentioning there will be a Beta around that you might be able to hop in on for free.

I will take the crickets chirping in the background as a "No".. nobody is excited about this game..

looks pretty sweet, i see this as a game i would be pretty bad at as im used to the cod format

Looks like Unreal Tournament spawn. I wish they would remake Unreal (not tournament), Could be way cool with the new engines.

I downloaded the BETA on xbox one. It's fun so far, I will probably get it.

[JP Z]

Yeah, I was bummed they didn't open the beta for 360..............then of course they actually would have had a test as there would be more players But it does look like that game especially was designed for the Next Gen Consoles.

After watching a few videos of the gameplay, I think I will pass. Too much going on with the AI's and Titans, and cloaking, not to mention the Halo jumping X 10 Looks like a total ripoff of Crysis.

[JP Z]

Yeah the Halo Jumping is what kills it for me.

The game is well balanced for a shooter. It thought you would be at a total disadvantage fighting the titans, but it's easy to bring them down. You can jump on an enemy titan's back and blast away. It's called rodeo-ing (sp?) A few snipers get on the rooftops, but most of the action is still on the ground. Like most games, camping and sniping won't get you near the points. Going for the objectives will help you rank up much faster. The cloaking function is timed, and you can still see the player if they are running or shooting. So, I don't see a big advantage in it. The smart pistol that locks onto multiple targets is a cool new concept, compared to the typical run and gun shooter. You can double jump in the air, and run on the side of walls in a parkour like fashion. It's kind of fun when you can jump on guys out of anywhere.

Thanks for the update, I take it you have XboxOne and have tried the beta?

[mamohr686]

You got it! Beta is closed now for the Xbox, and I already want to try it again. I'm going to try to find a pre-order deal.

[JP Z]

I see the 360 Version has been kicked back until a release of April 8th now. Youch!

Anyone looking to Preorder it right now Amazon has it for $59.96 with a $15 Amazon gift card. and a Free Mini Prima Strategy guide.

It's amazing. Spent 6 hours playing it at a buddy's house. Definitely hard to get used to since I'm a cod guy. You need to get used to playing both as a Titan & a pilot & they definitely have different styles of play. The cloaking isn't op at all. The halo jumping definitely takes some getting used to, but it just adds to the challenge. To all you guys that keep saying you like the cod format but are aching for changes, this is it!
