Diffidently curious too see why Respawn is at Playstation Experience very exciting.

Gazondaily3428d ago

Yeah I think its definitely coming to PS4. Like I said in reply to the above comment, I pray that it does so that it not only benefits from a bigger gaming community but also less hatred due to platform antagonism.

I've been playing this almost every day and the players are unjustly low in my opinion. Playing Titanfall after COD: AW makes me realise just how far ahead the former game is in everything, from balancing, smoothness, design and intuitiveness.

I love Titanfall. It has potential to be ever better. As great as the first game is, it feels like a foundation for something more.

kingPoS3428d ago

I know the feeling, sparse lobbies can really bring a multiplayer game down. I don't get why most games won't let you host a session like Warhawk does.

LonDonE3428d ago

Agreed i too have been playing it and loving it! for a first game in a new series it clearly demonstrates Titanfall is here to stay! i am sure the sequel will perfect what they already have, the core mechanics are rock solid.
Make no mistake Titanfall will become one of the industries juggernauts, this is a given.

The wall running, the gun play, the balance man the balanced game play is awesome! i love the level designs too, near enough every map is fun to play on, Werther you are wall running or double jumping, Werther you are slugging it out in a titan v titan battle EVERYTHING FEELS RESPONSIVE, SMOOTH AND CRUCIALLY BALANCED!

I cannot stress enough how awesome the nat code is, i never ever lag, i always get 10ms ping to the data centre, and the fact it runs on dedicated servers in my book puts it leaps and bounds ahead of most online shooters!

I would so buy Titanfall goty edition on my ps4 with all the maps included, and with native 1080p locked 60fps with no tearing! i would gladly buy the game again.
People like to shit on titanfall but you can tell the development time was cut early hence why no single player and less content but now after all the updates the game has a nice amount of stuff to do.

Sad thing is allot of people rag on it but have most likely never played the game and hate on it because of the xbox exclusivity deal.
From my very first match i could tell the feel, the pilot mechanics, the titan mechanics, the vertical level designs all were in perfect sync and i knew we would start to see allot more games incorporate similar systems within their games.

From the guys who gave us the juggernaut call of duty, and now Titanfall i say do not underestimate this team! they have made some of the best online shooters in gaming history and i say they can only get better!

Gazondaily3428d ago

"Sad thing is allot of people rag on it but have most likely never played the game and hate on it because of the xbox exclusivity deal. "

Yeah that's why I hate the exclusivity deal struck between MS and EA. I think it hurt the series in the long-run.

Fanboys have proven just how bitter they are with regard to this and the title doesn't deserve the kind of flack it has received. Hopefully once the sequel is out on all platforms, people will give it the love that it deserves. The Sony fanbase is now huge and will give the franchise the continued exposure that the X1 could not.

bouzebbal3428d ago

announcing Titanfall 1 PS4 for December would be pretty fun actually with 1080p display.
Titanfall 2 is happening on PS4, no doubt about that

Gazondaily3428d ago

"announcing Titanfall 1 PS4 for December would be pretty fun actually with 1080p display.

Yeah never mind the game, the resolution disparity will be the fun part.

Lol that quote sums up exactly the kind of thing I was talking about above.

DivoJones3428d ago

Said that to my CoD:AW buddies.. "Playing this really just makes me want to play Titanfall". It sure handled better than AW, not to mention there's no grenade launchers/noob tubes to deal with.

FriedGoat3428d ago

Theres some real love for Titanfall round these parts. I have it on PC and it is shockingly average. I don't even want to experience what an inferior console version plays like.

If it comes to PS4 I suppose its an advantage for those without a PC who want to experience mediocrity.

etown612813428d ago

Agree on every level. I found titanfall on xbox live games with gold for 12 bucks with ALL dlc included. The bots are kind of just fodder and pad less experienced players. I don't know why they couldn't use the AI of other players like forza does, if it does indeed use that it must be the stupidest players on the planet. They all line up to be shot. It does add more action and less downtime, and it's a very minor gripe I have but I'm loving titanfall(just bought an x1). Titanfall 2. Whichever console I choose to get it on will be just as amazing=) add me, time2sh1ne

Unspoken3428d ago

If gamers wouldn't have been so ignorant on their decision for hating Titan for being on Xbox, they would have realized what a great game it is. I kind of hope it doesn't get released for PS4 simply because of the undeserved hatred it garnered.

rocketpanda3428d ago

@unspoken, your comment is just as bad the fanboys you are targeting. Just because some hate was directed at the game for being exclusive is not a valid reason why other platforms should not get it. It is not a first party title. How about let those who enjoy gaming on whatever platform experience the game for what it offers. Forget the fanboys.

ShinMaster3428d ago

@ Septic

Replying to your first comment:
The difference is that Titanfall was full priced at $60 and lacked features/modes for modern standards.
Lack of story wasn't the issue, unless you're talking about Destiny.

user55757083428d ago

financially it makes sense to release the game on the console with the most sales and best multiplatform games

memots3428d ago

I hope its not exclusive. Otherwise the hype will again be unbearable to watch. It will probably become garbage by the same fan who hyped this game to unprecedented level when it came out.

Regardless of the reason, it's nice to see such a variety of developers attending PS experience.

Harold_Finch3428d ago

It's the lack of choice to me, games are quickly losing their ability to let gamers choose what they want. I have just bought Titanfall for a tenner so i hope they don't announce anything lol

The only example i can give is Perfect Dark on the N64, after you finished the story mode, you unlocked a new mode where your friend can pick up a second controller and join your story in order to stop you finishing each level, that was an unlockable mode; there has been a new game announced recently called Get Even, the whole game is that exact mode, the WHOLE game.

"The only example i can give is Perfect Dark on the N64, after you finished the story mode, you unlocked a new mode where your friend can pick up a second controller and join your story in order to stop you finishing each level, that was an unlockable mode;"

I can imagine people moaning about that today; about how stupid it is that you have to complete the story mode to unlock that mode and that it should be available from the start.

Never heard about Get Even though. Cheers for linking that.

Cream3428d ago

Great game... I'm glad it will be on both systems.

Harold_Finch3428d ago

Hahaha yeah, they would difinitely moan about that.

They would moan over a gift in a few years.

Jazz41083428d ago

I live in Las Vegas and tickets for all days are still available. I'm half considering going and recording some of it. What do you guys think?

SmielmaN3428d ago

I would go it I lived there. Tonight though, I will be with my wife at a Our Lady Peace and Bush concert. Vintage rock from my high school years!

Christopher3428d ago

Aren't they streaming all of the events?

XanderZane3428d ago

Respawn is owned by EA, so I don't know why anyone is surprised they are on a panel. Did anyone think they wouldn't be making games on the PS4 eventually? Whatever game they announce for the PS4 will probably end up being shown on the XB1 at the E3 next year. I doubt you'll see Titanfall on the PS4 however unless they combine TF & TF2 into a bundle package sometime in 2016. I doubt it though. Titanfall is great though. Very fun game.

StrawberryDiesel4203428d ago

I would bet they are releasing Titanfall on PS4 early 2015 with all DLC for 49.99

elsuperamigo3428d ago (Edited 3428d ago )

The xbone can keep this game they need it more and xbox is a console for fps the game sucks anyways everyone forgot about titanfall after like a month of been out beside 2015 belongs to sony,if ps4 kill the xbone in 2014 just wait for 2015 and after what sony shows at the ps experience you guys will know i told you the sad and hard truth

3428d ago
showtimefolks3428d ago

That could be it or it could be titanfall 1 GOty or complete edition for ps4. But TF2 would be more awesome

Either way excited so much happening at PS event than before I think we get game awards and new world premiers on that too

please no 6v6 with a million bots ...in 1080p 60fps.

torchic3428d ago (Edited 3428d ago )

100% agreed. don't care how Respawn spin it low player counts and bots are things that should not be seen in competitive FPS MPs...

PoSTedUP3428d ago

especially when they have AI worse than a ps2 game. the titans were dope, it would have been better 6v6 without bots on slightly smaller maps imo.

Cream3428d ago

don't change a thing... its a great game.
Give people the option.

Kornholic3428d ago Show
Pandamobile3428d ago

People that complain about the grunts in Titan Fall honestly have no idea what they're talking about. They're not supposed to pose a threat to you, they're supposed to be cannon fodder for you to annihilate with your Titan.

Smashing through a group of grunts is a super-satisfying way to break up the PVP encounters.

lategamer3428d ago

I don't see the problem with both, could you explain?

Bots keep the action going, and decrease camping.

Low player count is not bad at all. Some great, competitive games have low player count, like Halo.

PoSTedUP3428d ago

no problem with low player count for me. jus bots. bots were always for offline play, killzone1, redfaction2, duke nukem 64, time splitters, turok2&3 etc. for me anyways. 4 bots did offline gaming justice. zero bots does online gaming justice. 50 is 50 too many, ha i dont even wanna see 50 real players online to be honest.

PONTIAC08G8GT3428d ago (Edited 3428d ago )

Does anyone understand the purpose of the bots? Not everyone wants to play COD where people master it and then just destroy people all game long who casually play. The bots help those who want to play online and feel like they contributed to the team. One mode is geared towards killing anything that moves. Every other game mode just gives you time off of your Titan build. Majority of the time I don't even kill the bots because I dont want to give away my position and the Spectres take a lot of damage before dying. When you're in a Titan they will fire at you. When they get an objective, they will talk about incoming enemies. You can hack Spectre's and have a small army following you around. The bots work perfectly fine.

And you can't take the bots out and make the maps smaller. Titans are big, they need room to move. And having people in Titans can get crowded quick. Not once have I ever felt lonely or bored in the game. Might only be 6 players, but those 6 can have Titans which can follow the player, therefore you could technically have 12v12 (12 humans, 12 AI controlled Titans).

marlinfan103428d ago

I dont mind 6v6 but they definitely need to get rid of bots, they serve np purpose except taking up space on the map. I guess they help bad players get points too but thats a pretty dumb reason to put them in there.

PoSTedUP3428d ago

6v6 is fine for me, i just felt lonely a lot of the time playing online with so many bots. in socom we'd even have 2v2 if the clan wars called for it. so everyone i shot and hid from was an actual person that got to experience the epic gun fight we got in. i shoot people online for the thrill of just that, not: "ha! did you see tha- ..oh, err, no, no you didnt.."

PONTIAC08G8GT3428d ago

Bots help people who aren't 100% dedicated to playing competitively. I don't like COD because to be honest, I'll jump on and get killed by people who play it 24/7 and have 100 weapon attachments and 50 kill streaks going at once. The bots help those people feel like they helped. And in other game modes, they take a few seconds off your build time. Every online game shouldn't just be a crushfest for those who play it 24/7.

PoSTedUP3427d ago

yeah i guess they do wanna cater to the casual audience too. well said. thats why i dun like it i assume. im the guy on cod4, socom,, BF etc. that wipes the floor with people. they should have a lot more/different modes in TF2 imo. that last man standing mode is cool tho.

PrinterMan3428d ago

Completely agree. I played Titanfall on the PC for a very limited time. It just didn't drag me in. If this is a Titanfall 2 for PS4 announcement it would have to be a great improvement from the first to get me interested. I must admit the first one did nothing for me.

BiggerBoss3428d ago

According to Shinobi, they are definitely developing for the Ps4. Whether this is for Titanfall 2 or a new IP altogether is the question

WeAreLegion3428d ago (Edited 3428d ago )

Sadly, he said they won't announce anything. :/

Edit: Ha. True. I just wish they would do a campaign mode.

TomShoe3428d ago (Edited 3428d ago )

They're still being published by EA, so no doubt their next game is Titanfall 2.

guyman3428d ago

That will be massively disappointing for me, this type of announcement should be at E3. I'm far more interested in sony's first party i.e. guerrilla games, guerrilla cambridge, santa monica, media molecule, bend, etc. I would much rather see an announcement from them.

Gazondaily3428d ago

Wouldn't it be cooler if those announcements were made at E3 though? I see that show as the place to reveal things like that. Its the big show of the year anyway.

kneon3428d ago

The problem with announcing anything at big shows is that only the really big announcements get much press while the rest just get lost in the noise.

iSuperSaiyanGod3428d ago

Ungrateful it sounds like , it's all the same man

kurruptor3428d ago

Why exactly should they wait 6 months to do it at E3?

MonsterChef3428d ago

I think we are starting to see a trend started by Sony, a trend in which the major console developers are no longer chained to comerical events but rather events they themselves set up, like apple does, if you've payed attention when sony announced the ps4 it was at their own event when in the past that type of announcement could only be made at a tgs or e3 type event, I predict soon you'll see Microsoft move in this type of format as well

Sony Registers New Trademark for “PSX” (PlayStation Experience)

Could a new PlayStation Experience event be on the way soon? Sony has regsistered a new trademark for "PSX."

Antnee5341039d ago

I would like it if they did 4 quarterly big shows a year well 3 of the shows being state of plays while the last one being the psx conference. Still keep small state of plays to be an add for upcoming first party games like they have done.

Rimeskeem1039d ago

I like them doing State of Plays on specific first party games and getting a deeper look at them. It would be nice to have a big conference at the end where people can play the games etc and Sony shows specific things like release dates and has tons of indie games available on the floor for exposure.

RaiderNation1039d ago

I agree. I think the State of Play format works better when it focuses on one title and gives us a nice deep dive on that title. This worked so well for TLOU2, GOT, R&C:ARA, and HFW.

Have PSX twice a year I say. One in January that focuses on titles we'll be playing in the coming year and one in July that focuses on the long term "road map" games we'll be playing the following year and beyond.

1039d ago
MightyHealthy1039d ago

You have to admit tho, the majority of state of plays have not been good

RaidenBlack1039d ago

I like this idea.
I really wish they do a July event similar to one like Future of Gaming event of June last year.

itBourne1039d ago

Dang I was thinking a whole different thing from yall, was thinking more of a PAX like event or something. Went to the Playstation Experience in Vegas and it was such a blast. David Jaffe signed my PS Vita, got to interact directly with developers and provide feedback on their games (miss Killstrain), and got to chit chat with Scott Rohde like just hanging out after an event, and tons of small cool panels and other Playstation fans. Thats what I was thinking when i seen Playstation Experience.

excaliburps1039d ago

I can see this maybe being something end of year? Maybe for the PSVR2? Dunno. Could (and hopefully) wrong. I just see them doing State of Plays for Horizon, and a few more. Maybe they'll try and do a PSX in December since COVID in some parts are dying down?

jukins1039d ago

Thats honestly what im hoping deep dive into vr as well as tlou factions. And whats beyond god of war as far as playstation goes.

If there's one of the way, then they need to bring it or set expectations low straight away if there's nothing groundbreaking planned.

After E3, they could use this well if they played their cards right.

Darkborn1039d ago

I think 10 or so PS exclusives were announced at E3, also like the amuckspider said, Sony has previously stated 25 exclusives are in development, and afterwords, hulst said there more games in addition with second and third parties.

1039d ago
Darkborn1039d ago

Look at the pre show with Geoff, also look at square Enix's conference.

1039d ago
King_Noctis1039d ago

People ask for you the list, so please tell them. I wonder as well, what are those 10 PS exclusive ?

DOMination-1039d ago

There might be 25 games in development but we either know what they are or they are a long way off from being shown. I've posted this studio analysis before but I think its important for some people to see. You can work out the majority of those 25 games are.

Team Asobi - Just released a game, at least 12-24 months away from announcing a new one
Polyphony - Have already announced GT7, will release in 2022.
Insomniac - One team working on SM2 which I'd have thought was a way off yet, other team just finished/supported R&C
Naughty Dog - We know they are working on TLOU remake and possibly a space game. The latter has been talked about for nearly 10 years and although exciting, there have been no rumours that this project is close yet.
Bend - We already know they are working on a new IP but is in early stages of development, at least two years away from reveal
SIE San Diego - Just released MLB The Show.. probably working on post-game support for that and next years game
SIE Santa Monica - We know they are working on God of War and won't be out until next year at earliest. At most, might be working with an indie teams as a support studio but history so far has suggested they only work on GOW titles for in-house developments
Sucker Punch - Only a year out from GoT release.. their next game will still be two years away at least
Pixelopus - One of the few unknowns - we know they are working on an Unreal 5 game in collaboration with Sony Animation although again it appears to be early-ish in development.
Guerrilla - We already know they are working on Forbidden West, release likely early next year. May have a "second team" but that's been said for five years now with no evidence of any such output. No rumours yet pointing to an imminent announcement but can't be ruled in or out at this stage.
London Studio - They have worked exclusively on support/shovelware for the last 15 years.. speculation on my part but they are probably working on generic PSVR sports/shovelware titles etc. Rumours of a AAA game in development have been around for years but I's still wager it would be a PSVR title anyway.
Media Molecule - It took them a whole generation to release DREAMS. I'm sure their next project will be quality but lets be realistic, it's years away.
-----
Housemarque and Bluepoint - just released games, if their next projects are PS Studios titles, they will also be some way away.

neutralgamer19921039d ago

fox

i don't agree what did E3 achieve? the weeks after and the months after E3, ps5 would still sell way more than XSX. E3 hype helps when you have games coming soon after not games which show CGI/In engine trailers a without any proper gameplay/release date

Obscure_Observer1039d ago (Edited 1039d ago )

@neutralgamer1992

You better pray for Sony to show gameplay for those games or there'll be Hell to pay.

Microsoft presented more than 30 games and in-engine/CGI games for only 4 games. 3 out of 4 of those games were just announced like The Outer Worlds 2, Contraband and Redfall.

We shall see how Sony intents to counter all that with gameplay presentations. If they don't, It will be funny to see fanboys on mental gymnastics trying to spin and move the goal posts once again

neutralgamer19921039d ago

Obscure_Observer

I have been a playstation gamer for a longtime and Sony knows what it's doing. Maybe you didn't notice Sony in the past 9-12 months have released

The last of us part 2
Ghost
Demon souls
Spiderman MM
Returnal
Ratchet and clank
Bugsnax
MLB the show

Death loop
Kena
Tokyo ghostwire
Horizon
God of war
GT

Have been announced so whatever you want to say facts are facts. It's amazing because if this was Ms they would have delayed ghost and TLOU2 to be released alongside next generation

So you can keep thinking whatever you want

That would be huge if they revealed it this year. I'm looking forward to seeing how they've upgraded the experience and what killer, must have games they have up their sleeves. If the price is right (no pun intended) it will sell like hot cakes.

Sitdown1039d ago

What exactly do you anticipate them showing that would shock the industry?

neutralgamer19921039d ago (Edited 1039d ago )

More gameplay for the games they revealed because don't you think seeing actual gameplay for starfield would be a huge moment? Don't get me wrong it was a good show so no hate on the show itself. Just wanted to see more gameplay from some of the games they revealed

1Victor1039d ago

You are right sit down Sony got nothing to show like high quality games that even the competition secretly say “it’s beyond anything available in consoles” better VR experiences,
Sony they’re in such a bad situation they had to delay their flagship title for a year 🤷🏿

Sitdown1038d ago

@1Victor
Do you even read what people type, or do you just immediately read valid questions and immediately go in Sony defense mode? Sony releasing quality games won't shock the industry, as it has become the norm. PSVR2, it's expected, and Oculus is covering virtual reality as well. Or perhaps you don't understand what's being claimed when someone says shock the industry.

I think the next State of Play will most likely cover Forspoken which is their next big game after Horizon.

Sony Should Reveal the PlayStation 5 at PlayStation Experience

Gaminrealm: Sony is making history, becoming the first major presenter to back out of E3. As the hype rises for their next-generation hardware, it may be more beneficial for them to reveal it at their very own annual year-end event.

I don't think they'd skip E3 if they didn't have some big plans of their own, but we'll have to wait and see. Who knows, maybe after the recent announcement Microsoft will also show up to PlayStation experience 😂

Lol reveal yourself to me stalker.

DigitalRaptor1803d ago (Edited 1803d ago )

I prefer E3 to be focused on game announcements and demos than hardware blowouts. Seems like a bit of a waste to take time away from that when you can do hardware of your own accord.

I feel like Sony is partially not at E3 because they have PS5 games they're not ready to show and want to save it for another memorable conference. I would prefer them to announce PS5 proper at PSX this year with full specs, features, and teases for some cross-gen/launch titles and release it 3 months later in March 2020, like the Switch.

meka26111802d ago

Yea that's how I feel about it; always thought console reveals should get their own showing since there is gonna be a lot to talk about and show.

CrimsonWing691803d ago

Isn't it common knowledge that they're going to be unveiling this at the PS Experience?
