The MP campaign was great because there was zero skill based matchmaking. :getin:

That’s not true though: https://www.ea.com/games/titanfall/titanfall-2/news/inside-development-matchmaking

The multiplayer Campaign in Titanfall 1 had no skill based matchmaking. If you queued up for the campaign you would start from the first level and be matched up with anyone queuing up for the MP campaign. Regular multiplayer had SBMM, for both TF1 and TF2.

Oh I didn’t play TF1 so I didn’t know there was a multiplayer campaign. My apologies.

There's a cottage industry of channels that just reupload trailers and poo poo to make money off of and there's an arms race to come up with the most clickable thumbnails while still seeming to be the "Official" video. Also poo poo like adding 30 seconds at the end of nothing so people instinctively think it's an extended trailer.

Lol no, but that vid is 60fps and has all 3 trailers so I used it anyway

It’s funny how TF1 had the online campaign and got a lot of heat for that

Now companies are tripping over themselves to not have to produce a single player campaign, yet TF2 has the best SP for a FPS of the decade prob

Afaik no one knows for sure if there will actually be a Titanfall 3 so speculating on who's working on it seems kind of pointless. If it actually ends up being a thing and it's not Respawn for some godforsaken reason I don't give a gently caress about it.

It means Titanfall 3 will be utterly butchered under the games as a service model and then shot in the back of the head.

Titanfall is dead because Titanfall Assault didn't do well.

(I actually don't know how well it did, but it'll probably actually contribute to TF3 existing)

It was from the studio head Vince Zampella himself. The interview was from Glixel (which no longer exists and all links to that article go to Variety.com) who interviewed Zampella while a EA Publicist stood watch and chimed in when asked by Zampella.

quote:

GLIXEL: Will you make another Titanfall game?

ZAMPELLA: We don't know yet. The game is, critically, a huge success. We're really happy with all the reviews and the positive sentiment. Sales, it's too early to tell. We'd definitely like to tell more of the story and the universe. I think it's pretty safe to assume that we'll explore more of it. EA might have announced more. Devin?

EA PUBLICIST DEVIN BENNETT: What we've said is we're committed to the franchise.

ZAMPELLA: So, whatever the gently caress that means.

Titanfall 3 is rushed out in under a year, critically panned. EA disbands Respawn Entertainment then gives the franchise over to some f2p subsidiary to squeeze money out of forever.

I don't like battle Royale. But the idea of a Titanfall battle Royale with pilots just loving blitzing a over and Titans on a huge map is kinda aight

The topic of a Battle Royale mode came up on the Titanfall subreddit a few days ago and it was actually pretty productive. The idea I had, which people seemed to like, was the in addition to the hundredish pilots, you'd also have the usual array of grunts, Spectres, Reapers, etc. Pilots would initially drop in from orbit with their Titans (like in LTS) and instead of a "killer storm" forming a hard limit for the play space, there would be a soft limit in the form of a consistently shrinking area in which a dropship would land. Said dropship would have limited slots, and you could win by either killing everyone else OR being the guy(s) who manage to evac in the dropship.

That's a pretty good idea but a game like Titanfall with a TTK being so low would be massively annoying when you die seconds within the match and have to keep finding new ones.

It works fine for Black Ops 4. I’m in and out of games so fast with that, it’s really smooth. And that game’s TTK is so short.

Remember also that EA has a stipulation that means Titanfall 3 will most likely be done in the Frostbite Engine so who knows what that will mean.
