"Titanfall is the most finely tuned, well balanced shooter in years."
"Titanfall seems to now reside in the background, as other games like Destiny and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare command centre stage "
Gaz from GameOnDaily discusses why he thinks Titanfall is the best FPS of 2014.
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
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.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
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."
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.
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.
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.
Titanfall is not better than destiny or Cod: AW. Farcry 4 is way better than Titanfall, for a start.
i heard titan fall was good fun. not my cup of tea, but then again neither is destiny. and cod isnt cod when everyone is flying around in jetpacks, but then again cod lost it's footing a long time ago when it was on the ground. and KZ:SF, more of my style, nothing amazing tho. i havent played far cry 4. id give this year to titan fall, 2014 wasnt anything special anyways.
Titanfall has no longterm appeal, was great fun at launch but was ultimately very shallow and lacking in content.
This game is really bad for gamers. A game without almost any content and no sp. It seems like more like a DLC then a retail game.
For me TF is the best FPS of the year because of its legacy. So many games now offer double-jumping verticality and gameplay freedom instead of -- and we have TF to thank for that.
Oh, and the finely-tuned perfectly-honed gameplay is kind of important. As someone who plays shooters because I love the gameplay, not because of pointless metagame/upgrades/progression, I've kept playing simply since I'm having a blast. Just my 2c.
