Titanfall won’t require Origin on Xbox One, new Beta info coming next week

GamerHeadlines writes: "Respawn have been going crazy all over twitter offering scoop about the upcoming Titanfall beta. In order to offer the best gaming experience the dev team is working hard on bringing a working anti-cheat system in the game. Although, most that had access to the alpha had a thing or two to say about the game’s visual aesthetics, Titanfall producer mentioned that the Beta will be a completely new build. Respawn’s Vince Zampella also revealed that the game won’t require an Origin account on the Xbox One."

X1 Version seems To be the main focus.

BattleAxe3728d ago

The Origin version seems to be the main focus. EA is trying to go head to head with Steam. Xbox One only has 3 million consoles sold, so there isn't too much to focus on.

GamingGod3583728d ago

EA doesn't stand a chance against Steam ..

Kran3728d ago (Edited 3728d ago )

Only 3 million?

And there's still high demand?

And Titanfall is surely gonna sell consoles anyway?

You act like that isnt a lot for a 3 month period...

JodyCones3728d ago

Not really. Microsoft is just marketing it.. kind of.

FlameHawk3728d ago

Oh really? Titanfall on Xbox One won't require Origin... now who would have ever guessed?

OpieWinston3728d ago

DICE required it on BF4... So it's fair to assume the same...Great to know that I just jump straight into Titanfall instead of making a random Bull shit account when i already had an Origin account. (It was so bugged it didn't let us use our Origin accounts so we had to make new dummy accounts).

AC black flag needed uplay on xbox one

Tedakin3728d ago

If I hear one more word about "beta info coming shortly" I'm going to strangle a baby.

JohnnyBadfinger3728d ago

I will just drop a flag here for the authorities that be :)

urwifeminder3728d ago

wow well this may help sway me getting the XB1 version I hate origin, plus I get achievements may take that over visuals.

GamingGod3583728d ago

Titanfall is shaping to be awesome on the Xbone ..

jdktech20103728d ago

I'm taking achievements and no origin plus a smoother means of control (imo, never a fan of the ol' keyboard and mouse) as well as my surround sound and a much larger screen than my keyboard has.

PC will be a fine game but I would rather play with a controller as blasphemous as that does sound to some.

boshi3728d ago

i feel the same. however, i don't have an x1. so my only hope is that the pc version has controller support.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad593d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g592d ago (Edited 592d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

littletad873d ago

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

Ethereal871d ago

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
