Titanfall certainly looks awesome, but you’ll get bored of it in no time

Respawn Entertainment's first IP, Titanfall, is bound to set the multiplayer world ablaze with fast-paced on-foot action and massively powerful mech shooting.

But it won't last, that's a promise.

I agree its just a typical fps nothing really exciting about it imo especially since its up against BF4. Titanfall wont really excite seasoned gamers for long we have seen it all before. I will try it on a steam sale sometime when its <20

How is TitanFall up against battlefield, Battlefield is a launch title and we don't when Titanfall is coming out?

xReDeMpTiOnx3922d ago

@heavenly snipes

I <3 you for saying that

biRdy3921d ago

Plus the fact that they are both from the same publisher.

showtimefolks3922d ago

for me it was between Titanfall and Destiny and Destiny won me over

Like take-Two RS said when they announced Agent as exclusive to ps3, their exact words were when you are launching a new IP it can be good if you are exclusive to one console because you will get more fan attention and media attention with word exclusive

right now ps4 fans are bashing it and xbox one fans are saying they love titanfall while both have not played the game, how many of those ps4 fans would hate it if it was coming day one to ps4?(i still believe its a 6-12 months timed exclusive). also how many xbox one fans would say its awesome and can't wait if it was coming to ps4 too?

gaming community is very weird now a days, fanboys get some joy of the fact if something is exclusive

MonChiChi3922d ago

It's coming to PC so I couldn't care less.

Scatpants3922d ago

Im getting a PS4 and I think Titanfall looks cool. Ill probably get the bone when it comes out

CrossingEden3922d ago

i've seen you defending killzone shadowfall, which is doing absolutely nothing new

fourOeightshark3919d ago

They showed off Killzone Shadowfall MP gameplay already?

zerocrossing3922d ago (Edited 3922d ago )

Speaking as huge mech nerd I'm pretty sure I'd get my moneys worth at least. I'd much rather games that offer something new like Titanfall be developed instead of just the annual slew of tired, generic modern FPS's.

T23922d ago (Edited 3922d ago )

I agree but even kz3 has mechs ... They still have to be done well or its no more fun than say a cool looking tank
Why cant they just make a new , great "mechwarrior " lol

lastofgen3922d ago

Lol...how in the world would you know if it will excite gamers or not?

Surely if it was coming to the ps4 exclusively you'd be excited for it, no??

Hufandpuf3922d ago

"Exampling Call of Duty once more, how many players who religiously play online against others took the time to explore other game modes, including the single player and cooperative campaigns? A safe guess would be upwards of 90% of players, which seems generous, but when you’re shelling out $60 and tax for a game, why wouldn’t you want to get your money’s worth and explore all your options?"

NOT TRUE. Titanfal has a singleplayer component that blends the multiplayer. And saying 90% of COD players play singleplayer is 100% false.

only 18% of people even beat COD black OPs, and 17% beat BF3

u havent even tried it yet lol

asmith23063921d ago (Edited 3921d ago )

I'm not getting an X1 because f**k M$, but I hope this makes it to PS4 some day. I wouldn't mind playing it, looks good.

k2d3921d ago

Seems you're only speaking for half of the general populaton, eh?

strifeblade3921d ago

well sony gamers would hope so because if it does not get boring in one hour than sony gamers would be missing out on the time of their lives lol

quaneylfc3921d ago

and bf4 is anything new? well done you certainly haven't played any others then, think about the parkour, the man and robot amalgamation and the addictiveness of vince zampella's last games, bf4 is going to be a bigger version of the last one with an equally crap and lazy story mode and shiny shiny graphics, i like titanfall because it actually IS different and im not even buying it, i just like it.

i think mirrors edge is the only fp game that has shown any kind of creativity in the past few years, with the inclusion of the free running stuff, everything else has been a cod or bf ripoff

malokevi3921d ago

"with some players being drawn to a single player experience (like yours truly)"

This is where the article falls flat on its face. This is a person that is clear in his perspective, that single player is the most important draw in a game.

"It comes down to the idea that a multiplayer-only game has no lasting appeal in the grand scheme of things."

Oh, really? Because it seems like all the FPS titles see their player base play multiplayer for months and even years after release. Can the same be said of Singleplayer? does anyone even play singleplayer? Did the author even bother to look for evidence when he said:

"how many players who religiously play online against others took the time to explore other game modes, including the single player and cooperative campaigns? A safe guess would be upwards of 90% of players"

Well, it took me two seconds:

http://www.vg247.com/2013/0...

http://www.google.ca/url?sa...

I'm not saying he's wrong.... but he's wrong. It doesn't take a genius to see that. Anyone who plays first person shooters, and actually plays them online, knows how massive and fanatical the player base is. Can the same be said of single-player focused gamers? How many times can they finish a linear campaign before they are sick of it?

"even though in the end it feels just like the same kart pushing game you’ve known and loved throughout the years."

And... single player is somehow more "fresh" than multiplayer?

As far as articles go, this one sucks. Looks like the author wrote this just to poke the bear, because how in their right mind could anybody agree with what hes saying?

His other reason: Titanfall isn't COMMERCIAL enough? lol. Beanie Babies? Who is this guy kidding? Were talking about a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER! my lord!

A hard sell? How about E3 game of show, and the fact that gamers are currently swooning over it? I guess that's just... nothing?

uhg. ridiculous. " http://www.savecontinue.com... was clearly looking for some attention.

JeffGUNZ3921d ago

Half of you are the biggest nerds ever. The fact that some of you think you're "cooler" because you classify yourself as a "hardcore gamer" just really makes you a "hardcore" nerd. People have different preferences. Everyone doesn't have the same life/circumstances as others and only can play here and there. Who cares if they enjoy COD or not? I have maxed out presteige in Black Ops 2 and am also playing The Last of Us and Alan Wake and other games other then COD. Stop making gamers look bad by bragging you're more nerdy then the rest of us. It's sickening. Gaming is suppose to be fun and to ones interest and half you morons try to ruin it for others.

miDnIghtEr20C_SfF3921d ago

If this was a PS4 only game, this article would never exist. This guy would be praising the game hard.

JsonHenry3921d ago

I personally thought the game looked fun but when compared the likes of other games shown (The Division or Destiny for example) I thought the same thing- that it would get boring fairly quickly.

PurpHerbison3921d ago

I sound like a broken record by now but this game is your typical FPS and the only thing that makes it different is the Mech HUD they slap on. Even then, when inside the mech it still looks like a typical FPS.

Godz Kastro3921d ago

Is there a video game hierarchy I am unaware of? Its crazy that console guys get mad when PC elitist look down on them. However console guys look down on dudebros and casuals as if they dont count...pathetic

Brasi19893921d ago

You'll probably never see this game on a Steam sale as it's published by EA. =/

Megaton3921d ago

It probably won't even be on Steam. EA. Origin.

It looks like COD w/ mechs and no fish A.I. The direct feed Xbox one screens look bad, like 360 bad. E3 was the Nvidia version.

@Maria But your forgetting teh cloud which will make it look waaaaay better than the pc version .. damn my i7 and gtx680 lightning cant compete with the cloud ... and the best thing is EVERYONE will be able to use the cloud to the maximum even people with bad internet and no internet. Bring on teh clowd

@infected .. your the one trolling.

PIRGANEK3922d ago (Edited 3922d ago )

I wish this "site" would post some relevant things, not just everything Microshaft and Shoddy is doing. I've been viewing the comments from afar and your comment irritated me.. This Microshaft "cloud" boosting graphics and performance myth sh*t was busted about a week ago. The cloud cannot be used to boost game performance due to peoples current Internet connectivity speeds and terrible latency. -__- instead of telling people the right information this site relies view click bait, misleading titles and things to fuel this imaginary "console war".

awi59513922d ago

Onlive has proven cloud gaming works so take your snark elsewhere.

MasterCornholio3921d ago

@awi

Onlive is a streaming service......

Motorola RAZR i

awi59513917d ago

@MasterCornholio

It works on the same principle onlive is a harder method since you are playing the whole game online just not grahics&AI.

We do not know what stage they are at. Those could be at 20%, Just like Driveclub is at 35%.

davidj883922d ago

I must admit the ''It looks like COD w/ mechs and no fish A.I.'' made me chuckle.

I actually think Titanfall will turn out to be somewhat of a decent game, the mechs however seem a bit too gimmicky in my opinion as without them it would be referred to as another COD with free-running and jet packs so they are almost using them to distance themselves from COD.

I think it does have some potential to be a good multiplayer game but without hands-on or more in depth footage we can't really tell just yet, gimmick or not it's something different and sometimes different turns out to be good.

Urusernamesucks3921d ago

Cod with mechs is not even close to describing this game.

PFFT3921d ago

YAWN! Sad sad little Sony creature.

Ragthorn3921d ago

To me it looks like <insert a fast-paced mech game> + CoD + Brink = Titanfall. It looks fun to me, and I will be playing it on PC most likely.

Ashunderfire863922d ago

I don't care what this guy says in the article. Titanfall will be an instant system seller, along with 360/PC. Yeah it's a multiplayer only game, but look at the majority of people playing multiplayer games like Battlefield, Call of Duty, Halo, Counter Strike, and many others in the past and now. All those games including old classics like Goldeneye, had lasting appeal to this day.

Titanfall need I remind you all, will be one of the first games to truly demonstrate the cloud on X1, and yes the game will be constantly updated like Destiny, which is going to try to do the same thing. Right now I currently have PS4 preordered, but I will get X1 next year when Titanfall or Quantum Break releases.

thekhurg3922d ago

Dedicated servers! Watch out the cloud is coming!

memots3922d ago

^^ this

You do realize that dedicated server has been happening on pc forever right ? Even our good old friend ps3 has most game on dedicated server. So quit this cloud b.s thinking it will be soooooo much better than pc .

The cloud = nothing until they do more than dedicated server

Cuzzo633921d ago

Yep I agree. It will sell shit loads. I play COD. Despite all the hate. I love it. Lile you im a gamer first. Even tho im Sony all the way, ot didnt stop me from playing Halo, Gears, and Bioshock when it was exclusive. Did really like Gears tho but my sister loves it.

Aleithian3922d ago

That's precisely what I thought when I saw it. Has some interesting features but ultimately won't satisfy me.

Crazay3922d ago

Truth be told, I get bored of most games after about 20hrs of game play. Especially FPS games(with exception for Left 4 Dead 1 and 2). The only ones that can hold my attention for months or even years are the really big open world RPGs like Fallout 3/New Vegas/Skyrim or GTA.

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.

MadLad588d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g588d ago (Edited 588d 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."

Respawn Entertainment is Discontinuing Sales of Original Titanfall

Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.

Ethereal869d ago

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.

littletad868d 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.

Ethereal867d 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.
