CVG: "In multplayer, hordes of players around the world kill one another with nary a concern for pacing or drama, and all in the name of XP and leaderboard prestige. Conversely, single-player FPSs are all about keeping the player on a tight leash: studios want to make the player feel something. There is meant to be purpose and context for every headshot you accrue.
As a raw multiplayer FPS, Titanfall looks promising. Respawn weren't ready to let us play it at E3, but we witnessed a closed 7v7 tournament that served to highlight both the large and subtle ways Titanfall tampers with the format."
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
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.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
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."
Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.
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.
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.
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.
Thanks Respawn we will enjoy it. Can't wait to see the smaller mechs and different Titan types. Will they be wild variations of mechs like Lost Planet? They did say there would be different classes of pilots and titans.
Seems cool, tho I want to see more to make a call on the "innovation" factor. Almost like the new technology is going to drive FPS to new levels.
I'm still looking forward to BF4 the most. 64 players is finally possible, but can't wait to see what comes up next.
Definitely going to get a X1 for this game. Not sure yet if I'll get a X1 at launch cause i'm still to see launch titles for both system before both consoles come out, but i'll have on just in time for Titanfall.
With all the praise, guess its safe to say I'm the only one this game didn't impress. Looked like CoD with jet packs and a couple mechs, can't see what all the hype is about.
besides the jumping what other way is this game gonna innovate? I've already seen mech's in several other FPS game. Battlefield 2142, Halo 4, Killzone 3 to name a few.
