I'm really skeptical about anything running on the Trollbite engine.
They only going to have 3 different Titans at launch (focusing on DLCs?), i don't trust AI's in online games, and its 6v6 max. i prefer much bigger game sizes.
I don't think this game is going to work. not on PC.
p.s. the pilots have a smart pistol that can shoot around corners.... i heard that in some games its considered a really annoying bug :wink:

So, much hate :) :) :) jk

The beta period is even less than in BF4...seems like an EA thingy. Play beta for a week...then release game....prolly at the same state as the beta :D

I'll admit that when I first saw trailers for this game it looked kinda cool, but after getting more info I'm gonna pass. "Beta" is way too close to release again, so they aren't actually going to be improving anything from the DEMO (name it right EA) to release, and if BF4 is any indication of the state of the assbite engine this game is already going to be rank with issues.

Same here, Matsif. When I seen some of the trailers I was interested, but after hearing more about it, I'm skeptical. Especially given how badly BF4 rolled/has been rolled out.

But, right now, I have low impulse control with New Shiny Objects :lol: The Mrs confiscated my credit cards 8O

I have Zero plans of buying the game, but the Beta (if I get in): what the hell? why not?

I signed up just now. If we get in, we should totally play together and die horribly.

I'm interested in trying it, but I doubt it'll be interesting enough to hold my attention for long. Playing a competitive FPS alone quickly becomes dull.

I also think the AI will be okay. I mean, creeps work fine in MOBAs, so I'm not totally against the idea. The 6v6 seems like a good idea too. Short TTK + highly mobile soldiers = lots of getting killed before you can react. The more players you have, the worse this gets.

Titanfall is made with Valve's Source engine, not Frostbite.

Just got my Beta key today; will probably install and play tomorrow.

:-( I don't record (yet) but I'll post my impressions (which may not be so different from other folks' impressions)

one box with an X on it? :roll:

a review that only says positive things, and not a single negative word about the product is not a trust worthy review IMO.
