That's weird. You'd think people from Respawn Ent. would be the ones sending those letters out.

Why say thank you it is not like customers had a choice where to get the game? If it was on Steam than say thank you because those would some seriously loyal fans of the service.

This rumor is so dumb it just had to be made up

admiralvic3738d ago

I think it is a little sad it got posted in the first place.

No matter how small you think the PC market is, it just doesn't sound logical on any level. I mean, even if you assume only 2,000 people preordered it (this is without question a lowball), then you figure XYZ many people are hand writing letters, addressing mail and shipping these out. Not only is writing these letters a complete waste of time (and seems a bit desperate if you ask me), it's hard to believe they would be able to cover the expense by having people do this.

Weird. One preorder is probably more then the person whos made to write it earns in a day.

Is it true this game has no single player? I checked 3 different sites & for some reason 360, XB1, and pc are all the same price in Canada $59.99. Can someone explain it too me why they are all the same price?

True_Samurai3738d ago (Edited 3738d ago )

There is no single player BUT there will be a story mode for the multiplayer. The game is also online only which will require xbl gold. No split screen co-op. There has been rumors of the game having 16 maps which is fantastic for a multiplayer only game. I've played the alpha and it was amazing. And yes the game is full retail of $59.99

He's taking the piss, just leave him.

Elit3Nick3738d ago

Why wouldn't they be the same price?

DanielGearSolid3738d ago

so it's really not going to be on Steam? Wow

BenqMagician3738d ago

I don't know but maybe not since steam started too get into the console market.

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.

MadLad594d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g594d ago (Edited 594d 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.

littletad875d 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.

Ethereal873d 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.
