Digital Foundry's take on the new shooter from developers who wrote the book on console 60fps gameplay.

Source is a great engine but this is supposed to be next-gen.

Looks worse than current gen, lol ! Source engine ftw :D !

[pyramidshead]

I think they sacrificed graphic fidelity to achieve a supposed solid 60fps, so I'm led to believe so that'd be why.

[1nsomniac]

Thats what they claim in the article.

[karl]

the concept of the game excites me but the graphics are quite under what u would expect from next gen

[loulou]

the source engine is old. it was clear from e3 that there would be better looking games that titanfall at launch.... but will there be many that play better??

because that game looked incredible gameplay wise

[Majin-vegeta]

My question why the fark didn't they use FB3??Seeing as they're developing a game under EA.

[Fireseed]

Well a lot of times on a game project you'll find they pick the engine that best suits the artists. Perhaps a majority of the artists felt more comfortable with the Source engine. I haven't seen the FB3 UI for myself, or it's import/export feature but I heard it was a headache for a lot of artists. Could be why.

EA do not own Respawn Entertainment. At the moment the Frostbite engine is being kept in-house for EA dev's only.

Titanfall is my most wanted game- looks so good

Also got voted best game at e3 by ign

[windblowsagain]

cod with mech's at 60fps.

I'm sure some will love it.

[karl]

im sure call of duty was gonna have mechs at some point

they must be pretty mad someone beat them to it ...

[colt-of-tipton]

Your right some people will love it,im one of them .

[Belking]

I'm excited to play this on Xbox-one.

[No_Limit]

Day One on Xb1, Can't wait!

[MasterCornholio]

Hmm I wonder if the game will be 1080p in the end because in the tech analysis they mention the existence of scaling artifacts.

Motorola RAZR i

[Qrphe]

It wasn't even running on a Xbox One devkit, I'm sure it wasn't optimized at all for the system.

[game_infected]

Only amazing thing = giant mechs .hope titans be customizable like loadout ,body size ,color and also vynils!

[slampunk]
