The action looks decent and fluid, the neck break looked silly. It's not that easily done. Like his neck was made of twigs.

Gr1mmyshadows3723d ago

You must've broken many necks in your days huh lol

Retard3723d ago

LOL @TRD

I get the nostalgic feeling of running around as a Big Daddy once again

Deadmonkey763723d ago

Actually it doesn't take much to have your neck broken.

VENOMACR12273723d ago

Right because since the majority of the game is a simulation shooter (getting into mechs, jump packs, and made up weapons) neck breaking is the most unrealistic thing lol (sarcasm)

Nodoze3723d ago

It looked empty. One of the cool things about cod was the number of people running and gunning.

So there were 3 titans and a few soldiers, but overall seemed empty.

Kevin263853723d ago

It doesn't seem empty while playing. This was the first multiplayer game in a long time that I just sat in front of my TV and was blown away with the consistent amount of action.

TheFallenAngel3723d ago

I was blown away on how easy I got titans with just killing bots. It feels like there's more bots than players. I played it about 30 mins left it alone. Extremely disappointed

PsylentKiller3723d ago

It looks hectic. People complain about the 6v6, and they may have a point But they're missing something. It's not just 6v6, there's bots to fill the empty space. Also, when the Titans come in, there can appear to be more than 6v6 when the Titans are on autopilot. With all Titans in play with the pilots running about, there can be what seems like 12v12. 6 pilots and 6 Titans per team. This may be the reason why they decided on 6v6.

@Fallen
Ah exactly what im afraid of. I watched all the videos so far that I can find and everyone of them has one fatal flaw...the grunts AI is terrible. Ive seen people run infront of them, then realize its a bad guy, turn around and shoot them before they even realized. Most people seemed to do really get good scores cause they get a lot of grunt kills. Hopefully Ill get in the beta soon and find out for myself.

@PSy
Or, they could have just figured out a different system for how the Titans are distributed to not make it so eveyone will have at least 2 or 3 in each match....and could have upped the player count.

which allows you to use tactics and a bit of strategy instead of just spamming the trigger.

COD type games need slightly bigger maps like this.

Should hopefully eliminate spawn deaths

thanks to everybody that streamed this game
y'all saved myself $500 plus dollars.
this has to be the most overrated and over hyped game in
history.

tends to happen when it's one of the very few glimpses of success a system has in it's future.

You realize you could buy in on PC too right?

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.

MadLad593d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g593d ago (Edited 593d 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.

littletad874d 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.

Ethereal872d 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.
