I'm bummed that new new "Atlas" Titan doesn't look like Atlas at all, that loving Titan was awesome and adorable and I'm sad he's not coming back. :(

No "Multiplayer Tech Test" on PC. Only on Xbox and PS4.

Ugh....

We’re still making a lot of tweaks and changes to the renderer, the game, and effects so we haven’t run the game through the hardware compatibility lab yet to detect and handle a large variety of hardware - video cards, CPUs etc. Quite frankly, we aren't ready to deal with that yet, we are still making the game better.

Wait, so 2 months from release and they're still working on poo poo and don't even know the min spec? Oh boy.

yeah they're working on poo poo until the last minute, just like approximately every other major game made ever. Unless they also lock out pre-release PC review copies - i.e. trying to hide PC performance until first day of sales - I'm not really worried about it yet.

I guess this is why fat, day-one patches are a thing I guess.

Why would anyone care about the AI? They didn't act like players and made nice window dressing.

They mattered in Attrition. I loved the AI dudes because they weren't pilots, just regular grunts and it made you feel like the coolest super soldier as you bounced around with your jump pack and piloted a giant god drat mech while they tried to defend points. TF1 made you feel like such a god drat bad-rear end it was incredible.

Titanfall was great because everything about it was it's own spin on the typical FPS tropes that made poo poo fun and refreshing, I have a feeling they might just be pandering to that now considering how fast the first game dropped off. Maybe they felt because it strayed too far from tradition that it died. I don't know.

And I played the poo poo out of 1 on PC with m/kb and I do not remember TTK being that short

The TTK was crazy short in the first game.


Lemming posted:

It was pretty useless in the first game

Wallhanging was a good way to juke out a fucker chasing you, run through a door and jump above said doorway and pick the dude off as he comes in after you. It was really situational but it had some uses.

Also, there might be some tie-in poo poo for bonus skins via merchandise, since this McFarlane Figure apparently comes with an exclusive spray for the Titans. I wonder if they'll expand on it.

Speaking of figures. Have you guys seen the 2 foot tall, 500 dollar Titan toys they make? I saw one on the store recently and it was loving crazy. Wanted it so bad but I'm not going to pay $500 for an action figure.

I have one, Atlas, it's dope as poo poo and the coolest figure in my collection, but god drat it I also want the Stryder and Ogre figures but that's another $1K on toys... welp.

They have been pretty quiet about all the complaints about no Attrition since the rumors started. There was a quote from a Polygon article about Bounty Hunt being the new Attrition




Yesterday I asked the lead engineer at Respawn on twitter about it and he surprisingly kinda confirmed that it's not in the game.

What is attrition, and why is everyone making GBS threads over themselves for it?

It was the bread-and-butter gamemode for TF1, the only one that's even played anymore. It was really solid and a lot of fun with the AI roaming around, seems like it's done away with.

Looking good, though, I hate that weapons are Titan specific now.

Also, it seems like the hover ability makes you one hell of an easy target for everyone to aim for once you're airborne without any sort of cover. Much like how Pharah always gets a headshot using her Q.

I don't get the pre mortems people are predicting on this game? Like, being released close to cod and battlefield might hurt its sales but it's not like there won't be plenty of people playing it for a long time. Really any decent game should have enough players for a long time.

You're kidding right? I mean, I love the poo poo out of Titanfall but that game is dead as poo poo and died relatively quickly, with TF2 being bookended by the two biggest FPS titles it's easy for people to see it as a bad sign. Not to mention gameplay changes that seem to cater to the COD crowd while removing what made Titanfall unique in the first place.

Titanfall 1 is the greatest FPS game of all time (unless 2 is better) but being great wasn't enough to save it.

Yeah but TF1 got double butt hosed by being a Microsoft exclusive at a time when they were splitting playerbases across multiple consoles during the transition and Microsoft basically lost the console generation right out of the gate. Neither of those things will be true this time.

But I'm talking about the PC scene which died way before Xbox scenes did.

let me rephrase that. The concept kicks rear end as a game and I like it. The idea that warfare is carried out by people parkouring all over and jumping into robots is hilarious. Why are they getting out of the robots in the first place? it doesn't need to make sense it just makes me laugh when I think about it.

This basically applies to any work of fiction ever though.
