Titanfall's Beta Signups "Huge;" Multiple Problems Already Solved, But Microsoft's Server Struggle

The Titanfall beta is well underway and according to Respawn Entertainment Co-Founder Vince Zampella the initiative is being definitely successful with a "huge" scale of Signups.

The game is awesome. Been playing all day solid, until just now where a bug in the servers are currently being worked on. Wonderful stuff.

[Abriael]

I agree, I was surprised by how fun the game is. The only "flaw" I can find in it is that it's so chaotic that even a complete FPS noob like me can get kills a bit too easy. And I mean pilot kills, not grunt kills.

Seriously, I'm so bad at FPS games that if you get killed by me you should be as ashamed as if you were killed by a grunt.

[jimbobbeers]

I agree to an extent, how kills seem rather easy against other pilots, but I rarely find myself thinking I've been hard done by myself. So I just assume they suck, not me lol.

[WeAreLegion]

That's sort of what they want though. You can't get addicted to something unless you win sometimes.

[JokesOnYou]

Finally! I just got my beta code, lol I was worried, damm so happy be home in about 1hr to play Titanfall.

[AuToFiRE]

Im actually enjoying this game as well. However, I find there is a lot of graphical glitches. Even with AA off, the graphics end up tripping out after a few minutes, still playable, just can't really see. Maybe its because im using 24xEQ AA with supersampling with a hardware override.

[JsonHenry]

So far this is "fun" but I don't see it being competitive enough. The gameplay is solid, the graphics are awesome on PC maxed out for a Source engine game.

The only problem is if you thought CoD was a FPS with training wheels you're going to feel this game is a FPS with you in a stoller that takes no skill at all to play.

The player count really needs to be higher. The bots are just not the same no matter how good/bad the AI is.

[pyramidshead]

thought they had 300Ks worth of delicious server goodness, what gives?

[WeAreLegion]

No. Microsoft has 300,000 servers that can be used by anyone, including Sony. The Xbox division is using an untold number of those though.

[Phoenix76]

Actually a lot of those servers are virtual, not physical for the XB1. Basically meaning the 1 server is split to act as 4, if you catch my drift.

[loulou]

There is no problems that I have encountered with the servers

They are very smooth, and you don't feel the need to look at kill cam because you were unfairly killed because of the lag..... Love themserver side calculations.

The thread title is just the usual hit getting nonsense from abriael

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

It's Bug in game, not a server side issue -_-

[KillerPwned]

I had played a few matches but I cant get any servers at all now. I'm on the PC beta.

[Pascalini]

This game is amazing I feel sorry for ps4 users

[Ricegum]

But won't PS4 users surely feel sorry for Xbox One users when Infamous, Uncharted, Order etc come out? Don't feel sorry for PS4 users, they'll be fine with the PC and 360 versions if they want the game.

[DoubleM70]

Uhmm not really they will just go buy a PS4. Better yet they probably will just play QB sunset overdrive Halo 2 Anniversary, Halo 5.

[Ricegum]

We get it, you're a Halo fan. Let me ask, how is a Halo rehash, and two completely unproven games that we know nothing about better than getting a PS4? Don't be delusional please.

[chaldo]

@Unreal01

Oh no need to feel sorry for me man. I play on PS4 and PC so it's a win for me :D

[skydragoonity]

Sorry for what? I'm getting this on my 360

[JodyCones]

I play on PC & PS4. Trust me, I'm fine.

[ger2396]

Why? Its just a game. Trust me if people don't get play it, the sun will still rise in the morning and life will still go on. Crazy, I know. Besides, If people want to play it, they have other options to play it on other than Xbox 1.

[pupa]

Don't, but tell me anyway why? Most PS4 users do have a gaming PC as well and will experience the best version of this game very soon (wink)

[xDHAV0K24x]

Stop assuming

[FLYINGDOG]

Jajá, to my ps4 is a bargain system $100 off. To my a 10% have a gaming PC.

[shoddy]

I'll get it on pc without paying for online

[memots]

I'm a pc user that also have a ps4, don't be sorry I'll be fine. No need for live either lol. If anything I feel sorry for you

[strifeblade]

Actually we feel sorry for you

[Mister_G]

Don't be, we're totally ok thanks :D

[avengers1978]

Don't be, I'll be deep into infamous second son.

[SaffronCurse]

Well I'll be getting it for Xb360.

[Soplox]

I dont need to buy a CrapBox to play this game. I have my PS4 and my PC! pc IS WHERE THIS GAME IS MEANT TO BE PLAYED! Better graphics, Better FPS, Better Online, etc.

[Nathaniel_Drake]

Don't feel sorry the game looks like a COD clone and I have seen gameplay. The same boring gameplay

[boshi]

well, i'm a ps4 user, and i'm still playing it. what's there to feel sorry about?

[Stryfeno2]

Fun, fun, fun..... If you aint playing this, you're missing out BIG time.

[razrye]

Just like the xbox fans lost out on the game of the generation with more awards than any other game in history. Obviously the last of us.

[WeaseL]

played it, not ground breaking or graphically intensive but it is fun and runs ok on my old PC

[sashimi]

How old? i'm still running a E8400(dualcore 3GHz) with a HD 5830 lol, i kinda wanna see how good it runs on this old wagon. Will be upgrading my PC closer to summer tho :)

[SliceOfTruth888]

well i played about 5 hours of 100% lag free gaming today....so if they say its a small bug i believe it

[Elit3Nick]

The alpha build was almost impossibly smooth, I have complete faith that MS's servers are as good as they say they are, I hope BF4 uses them soon

[PsylentKiller]

I'm so jealous. It's really disappointing not having a code yet. The beta ends in a few days and I have a feeling that if I ever get a code, it will be 2 minutes before the beta ends.

[BX81]

Yeah same here, I have an all day fishing trip tomorrow so I was hoping to at least get some gaming in tonight, but with no code I'm outta luck. lol.

[PsylentKiller]

Fishing sounds awesome. I hope you have better luck catching fish tomorrow than you have had getting a code. Maybe when you get home from your trip, a code will be waiting for you.

[BX81]

Thanks and that would be great if I had a code waiting. Too bad I also have to study for an anatomy and physiology test, lol.

[bigboirock]

i got 2 pc codes they sent me if anyone want one
i only sighed up twice and got 3 code weird been playing on xbox one

[PsylentKiller]

Thanks but no thanks. Someone gave me a code yesterday for the XB1. I'm so happy to see all this generosity. When I get my code from Respawn, I'll be passing it on to someone in need.

[jonatan221]

I wouldn't mind getting that extra code :)

[DaGR8JIBRALTAR]

i WANT A CODE NOWWWWWWW!

[idbuythatforadollar]

Code?!?! Code?!?! Coooooooddddddeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! !

[Father__Merrin]

how the he'll can Microsoft's servers struggle when they are operating more computational power than all the world's computers in 1995

OH COME ON!!!!!!!!

[ShellB]

who wants to trade? looking for pc code. i have an xbox one code.

[BigKev45]

I have my code. Downloading now!!!

[Bill_Willson_CIA]

Titanfall is a EA always online game! you know what this means? Will be SIMCITY all over again!

[lunatic0001]

as of now i have yet to recieve a code :(...damn it sounds soo much fun...was wondering am i screwed or is there still hope of getting into the beta :(

[NeoTribe]

Da cloudz!

[bofuknjanglez]

Was stoked when I got my beta code yesterday I had just signed up on Wednesday for the pc version. IMO it was actually quite fun and it puts a fresh spin on the FPS genre with the wall running, jumping and titans. As well you know it runs smooth as butter with everything maxed out @ 1080p because its the Source engine but it actually looks pretty good for a decade old graphics engine.

[takohma]

Awww I still have no code!!! Been checking my email constantly lol

[lunatic0001]

i feel you dude...damn i feel like am not going to get a code....should have gotten code by now :(

[takohma]

Just got it. Downloading now. At 86%!!!! I hope you get one too bro!!! It's snowing pretty bad over here so I'm glad I have something new to play while I'm stuck at home.

[zinc41]

[zinc41]
