Titanfall – Respawn on Pilot-Only Modes, ‘We’ll See What Happens After Launch’

MP1st - Titanfall developer Respawn Entertainment hints at the possibility of a Pilot-only mode post-launch, despite previous statements.

I would like to see a mode with 12v12 human players. Each team would have 6 pilots and 6 engineers. Only the pilots could call in Titans, but would have no heavy weapons. Engineers couldn't call in Titans, but would have heavy weapons to take them on. Then, eliminate the Grunts and only have Spectres for the AI (actually, there might be enough action to eliminate all the AI). As it is now, there are just too many bots and not enough human players. I think this type of mode would really open up the gameplay plus there still wouldn't be more than 12 Titans on a map at a time (which Respawn thinks is the ideal number).

Great idea! I really hope Respawn implements some type of player only mode.

crxss3701d ago

would love to see a TF pilot only TDM. make it happen Respawn

n4rc3701d ago

I'm sure they will..

lonewolfjedi3701d ago

you need to tell respawn this idea it sounds fuckin sweet!

DeathOfTheFanBoy3701d ago

I want to see a 1 titan mode, where each team clamours to complete enough objectives to release the one and only titan in the match. Those of you who played the beta will know, having a titan in no way whatsoever guarantees a win.

Hope I can get myself of plants vs zombies by then the co op is friggin sweet it looks stunning.

iistuii3701d ago

I see they have a Horde type game in coop is that any good ?

urwifeminder3701d ago

To be honest that's the only mode I play only went for online vs 3 times went back to online co op started playing on normal and hard for a more tasty experience its tough.

Mystogan3701d ago

That would be pretty dumb... Titans make the game fun.

annus3701d ago

Yeah I hate options, I much prefer only having the option to play one. /s

TheOmniGamer3701d ago

I remember that a mode called "Pilot Hunter" was leaked based on the Titanfall BETA files, but that maybe could be referencing Titans hunting down Pilots, I'd assumed it was a Pilot Only mode. Oh well, Attrition was my favourite mode and the Titans were a blast to play with the limited weaponry we had, can't wait for the full game!

Elit3Nick3701d ago

That's what I thought it was too, but I never thought about a titan hunting pilots, I really hope that happens

-MD-3701d ago

Pilot only mode? You mean Call of Duty?

Team_Litt3701d ago

Yes, only with wall running and jet packs and no PlayStation version so...better.

XiSasukeUchiha3701d ago

@Team_Litt
First of all Respawn owns the IP, and EA is there publisher, so yeah Playstation of Titanfall 2 incoming bro :)

@xisasukeuchiha

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."

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.
