Nice... Man, I can't wait to get my hands on this game.

MestreRothN4G3738d ago (Edited 3738d ago )

Me too! And I don't even own a XB1.

On topic, incredibly excellent news! Means that the progression will likely work the way it was supposed to be, and not that the progression walls will be the greatest obstacles to overcome in the game.

pompombrum3738d ago

Well that's at least one worry put to rest, if it doesn't have Microtransactions, it means EA haven't had their slimy greedy fingers anywhere near it. That's definitely upped my excitement for it.

JokesOnYou3738d ago

Best news I've read all day.....I personally avoid microtransactions like the plague, I still enjoy the occasional grind in Ryse for example and I refuse to pay 1 penny for anything that can be earned, still I think the industry would be much much better off without microtransactions.

Nykamari3738d ago

Joy, you got a lot of haters! I don't understand your disagrees for the statment you've made. But hey keep gaming on the system you like.

FunAndGun3738d ago

First time I ever clicked Agree on one of your comments.

pompombrum3738d ago (Edited 3738d ago )

@Nykamari

It just goes to show how bitter some people are. Doesn't matter what console you're a fanboy of, every gamer who has any sort of respect for the integrity and future of gaming should be united against microtransactions.

Pogmathoin3738d ago

Nykamari, its instinct, people will not even realise they hit disagree, just the moment the see the name it happens. Get it a lot myself. I am sure there is many who do not even read the article, or the comments, just the headline and they hit agree/disagree based on your history, or which side of the fence you are on. I own both new gen, nearly everything that came before it, but refuse to bash up on one because its the 'popular' thing to do. Sure I hate the fact that MS messed up the great things they started with 360, but whos to say they will not turn it around? Last thing I want is a dominant console, stagnates the industry. Things were great because 360 forced Sony to not assume we would buy anything they threw at us, even if a second job was needed. PS4 is what it is only because MS forced them, and now hopefully history keeps repeating, as this will be the best for all of us. Hope Nintendo can swing things too, but they need unique 3rd party, I cannot justify buying it now for the customary Mario/Zelda game anymore........ Game on....

JokesOnYou3738d ago

Nykamari, thanks and its cool, right or wrong I'm going to keep saying what I believe, disagrees and popularity are irrelevant to me on n4g.

FunandGun be careful, that's how it starts...lol

aibreeze, very true.

Bigpappy3738d ago

Yep. Played all the Co-op maps and never spent a dime.

FamilyGuy3738d ago

Same here, it's funny to see you mention avoiding the plague though cuz your Joker avatar looks like he's got it lol.

For such a small statement this happens to be one of the most significant news stories of the day.

I saw tons of footage of the game. I have intent on buying it after it's released so that I can get wind how the game as gold is. It'll be my first ORIGIN game if I end up buying it. :/

FamilyGuy3738d ago

This sounds like good news but I wonder if they'll keep to their word. Is this guy able to make this claim with certainty because it's definitely a nice thing to hear.

Does this mean that only meaningful DLC will be released like maps and story expansions or that there won't be any DLC at all? I doubt they'd release a game with no plans for DLC whatsoever but this reply all depends on what they constitute as a "mircotransaction". At least we know those $1-50 cents guns, characters skins and small crap like that won't be there.

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.

MadLad586d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g586d ago (Edited 586d 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.

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.

littletad867d 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.

Ethereal865d 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.
