They should also use the volumetric smoke from CS2 for the Electric Smoke. It'd be so badass to see a Titan dashing through it, leaving a massive hole before filling in.

It's a fun looking mechanic from a gaminess angle but man is it cheesy as gently caress to see individual bullets displace smoke rather than fly through it

It'd make more sense if it was some Tone rockets, a railgun round, or really any Titan sized weaponry.

Totally agree that it's dumb for bullets though.

Oh yes. But thats what i mean. Tabletop mech games are always fun. Either for the game or the minifigs

Lancer is cool, but be cautious with expectations going in. The system is its own thing, not Titanfall The Tabletop

Though it has sparked discourse on how one could handle Titanfall in a tabletop. An RPG where you play a specific pilot runs into the problem of the gameplay loop involving dying a dozen times a match and respawning. Ideally you would have a wargame with a budget of titans and infantry you can control across a skirmish map.

The new EA WRC game is using Unreal, and it’s not even full of monetization nonsense (there are season passes but only for cosmetic stuff and you get it all for free if you preorder)

They didn't think TF2 would do well so they didn't care. If TF3 gets made, it'll definitely be off the back of fans clamouring for it.

What a horrible thread to have a post.
Someone at Respawn is messing around with the playlist file that gets sent to your computer whenever you start Titanfall 2. Like, hourly. It's stuff like "don't look here" and "turn back now" and "I warned you" stuff. Anyway I'm sure something fun will happen tomorrow. They did a good job of firing me up and I enjoyed this little hype run. Never would have thought this would happen in 2023 with TF2.

respawns non-apex/titanfall releases have also all been on unreal so if they ditch their source fork that's probably where they'll go

EA just slashed 5% of their workforce.

My buddy on the inside said they cancelled a bunch of stuff, but this one (and the earlier Titanfall sequel) really hurt to see axed.

What the gently caress EA? Respawn made you a money printer just let them make games.

I think this has more to do with focusing Respawn's limited resources on surefire hits, of which Apex, a third Jedi game, and the cultivation of the LA studio are main priorities. Respawn is EA's number one hitmaker, this is known. The industry is too hosed right now to spend their resources on anything risky.

Yeah most of the DICE devs that worked in BF Bad Company to BF1, bailed in BFV so whatever we got from BFV to 2042 is just the name and it shows.
