Yea keys are available- they moved from vouchers to being able to see the discounted price when logged in.

Holy poo poo, a recently released game that doesn't have a 10GB+ day one patch before it doesn't run like poo poo. Or run at all. :monocle:

I'm honestly rooting for Respawn at this point. I'll admit I won't be too surprised if they end up charging for DLC, but I'd probably still buy it.

So this is a bit off topic but i couldn't find an Origin thread on the game board. I'm definitely wanting to get Titan Fall 2, it looks pretty sweet and some of my friends are getting it. But I've never used Origins because of the whole rootkit and spying from way back. Is Origin still scanning your computer? Is there a way around that?

Investors are currently betting against Titanfall 2 right now, so here's hoping the high critic marks turn the tables on this poo poo.

Origin doesn't do anything like that. Where did you hear that nonsense? The most invasive thing it ever did was scan your installed programs looking for EA games but it hasn't done that since 2013.

Basically I heard the bit about scanning for EA games way back, like when it first came out. If it doesn't do it anymore than thats great.

I hope EA doesn't blame this on Respawn, releasing Titanfall 2 right between Battlefield 1 and Infinite Warfare was pretty dumb

How is the multiplayer? I'm specifically curious about the maps, I was turned off by during by the beta because the maps were way too open and you couldn't do the ridiculously fun parkouring of Titanfall 1.

There's pretty much only one really open map. It's alright up until the point where the enemy has titans and you don't and it just turns into a camp fest. All the other maps I've found to be really loving good for doing awesome parkour poo poo. The slide really brings it all together amazingly.

All of the maps are really good with tons of parkour routes IMO. Honestly they feel and play great.

Also yeah this game's release date is mind boggling but hopefully its good enough to survive.

Some maps are better than others but I've been having a blast just practicing routes for CTF. The trick is using the slide to get an initial speed boost then doing short wall runs, slide/bhop, then double jump. There's a short cooldown on the slide speed boost so you use the double jump to keep yourself in the air until it's ready again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Olu7ra1Ada0&hd=1

Just practice it a bit and you'll get the hang of the timing. It's honestly easier than the old bhop timing since you don't lose all your speed if you are too slow on the space bar.

This is how you communicate with a fellow intelligence: you hurt it, you keep on hurting it, until you can distinguish the posts from the screams.
So far the multiplayer seems like a step back from the first game in every way, which sucks, because I loved TF1 enough to get gen 10 :( It's slower, clunkier, and the audio work doesn't seem nearly as good.

I'm not sure I'm totally sold on the new uncustomizable titan loadouts or the maps yet.

I feel like they realized a lot of people just used a particular setup with each chasis, so they went "okay, lets remove customizability all together!". Giving everyone electric smoke, however, is a very nice change.

The maps don't feel...I dunno...epic? Every map in TF1 felt like a battlefield, with constant swarms of grunts dropping in and the such. The new maps, combined with the changes to Attrition, make them feel really small. Also, depending on where the battle is happening, there'll be parts of the map that are just EMPTY. That never happened in Titanfall 1.

What's the deal with sponsers? Is it just picking who yells at you over voice coms? It's nice to have Blisk back (I'm switching to that faction as soon as I can) but I miss Bish and Spyglass. :(

It's slower? My initial two hours last night makes me think it's way faster? When you pop stim it's like a rocket ship.

It feels slower until you get the hang of the new wall running/sliding mechanic, so a lot of new people will probably feel that way. I know I did until I learned how to stim slide

I got this on GMG. Then I realized I probably should have got the game on console because it may have a better chance of keeping a bigger community.

Welp, I already have a key so I can't do a refund. Aw well.
