Titanfall Update 6 Game Mode Removes Main Game Concept

The new Titanfall 6 update will introduce a surprising new game mode called Pilot Skirmish. The new Featured Game Mode is an 8v8 mode but with no AI and no Titans. Straight up pilot vs. pilot. So Titanfall with no falling Titans - doesn't that remove most of what made the original game concept?

Personally I can't see myself playing that mode very much. But a lot of the internet was very vocal about having pilot only matches. Gotta listen to the customers "babies" :D

ThichQuangDuck3518d ago

They wanted no bots all players,but no titans is quite silly. It will literally be just COD

4Sh0w3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

nah, not like COD, even playing as a pilot with wall running and jetpacks always feels different than COD to me, people always just want to strip away every mechanic to label it as COD with "___" but its different enough and that's so easy to oversimplify any game in the same genre and make that statement.

That said, yeah I probably won't play this mode much, when I play Titanfall I want to play with TITANS involved, even if I enjoy being on foot more, Titans add another layer to the gameplay so I don't really get the desire for this mode.

It's just an option though so no harm, no foul.

Maybe without the Titans and bots and just pilots the framerate and screen tearing can be fixed.

I wish COD played like Titanfall Pilots. Especially the wall running and wall hanging.

PONTIAC08G8GT3518d ago

Sorry but I play TF to play with Titans, not run around trying to just kill pilots all game. Basically removing what makes Titanfall.......Titanfall.

ARESWARLORD3517d ago

I agree the Titans are the best part

tgunzz3518d ago

It doesn't remove, it just adds more options (it a game mode)... I can only play titan fall the traditional way, but I am sure that there will be a good amount of TF gamers engaging this mode.

theRell3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

It's what people wanted. The game gets negatively criticized for having AI during multiplayer, they offer a game mode with AI. What comes next, more negative criticism. It's just an option.

700p3518d ago

Exactly. Its a smart move by respawn.

Droidbro3518d ago

Title is another flaim/click bait lie. How does adding an optional new game mode remove main concept of game?

MCTJim3518d ago

so they can flame the game. You know, those who are the have nots...its just amazing that this game is still in the top 10/20 in terms of staying power!! I think this game rocks!!

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.

MadLad585d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g584d ago (Edited 584d 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.

littletad865d 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.

Ethereal863d 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.
