    The game play itself is brilliant the two play styles either on foot as a pilot with parkour mechanics allowing you to get all over the map is one, the other is as the Titans. Both are very well done, they are very well balanced and both are always a threat to each other as the extremely well designed maps and excellent choice of equipment balance out the needs and uses of both. The controls for both are easy to learn and are very precise allowing for you to do what you need to do when you need to do it with no clunkiness at all.
    The multiplayer campaign is simply there to tick a box and appease all the whiners who can't accept a game focussing on doing a few things really well, play this through so that you can unlock the other two titans and have all three available for the multiplayer matches-THE REASON THIS GAME EXISTS and the only reason you should buy it.
    As of now there are Attrition, Last Titan standing and Hardpoint. All are 6V6, which was a non-issue for me prior to release and in the actual game is just fine and a complete non-issue there, this is not and was never meant to be Battlefield with mechs. You are an important part of your team and you need to pull your weight if you want your team to win.
    Attrition is your standard DeathMatch and is the most fun, with unlimited respawns and no fixed location objectives you have the most freedom, figure out loadouts and playstyles that suit you. There is plenty of variety in this.
    Last Titan standing is the most tense and thrilling, you start in a Titan and you have one life. So play smartly, conservatively and work with your team and cover each others backs to get the most out of this. In a 6V6 game you need to work togethor! Being outnumbered is a situation that can come up quickly if you don't and you will need to reset the balance to win.
    Hardpoint can be brutal you will have to fight hard to take and hold the three points on the map and you will need to have a plan for your loadout and play style in order to do the best you can as you will be spread thin trying to take and hold the objectives.
    There are many different ways of playing: want to be a sniper, head on infantryman, human Titan hunter or stealthy gunner? You can do it! Want to control a head-on tough, relentless damage dealing walking tank, good all rounder or fast and agile harasser as a Titan? You can do it! There are plenty of options allowing you to play how you want and they are all exceptionally well-balanced. You can even go nuclear! Creating a massive explosion right in the middle of a group of enemies, enjoy the view from way above the battlefield as you eject and fall back down on to the back of an enemy Titan and riddle its weak points with bullets!
    GRAPHICS: There are better looking games, but Titanfall still looks very good and the detail is there. It has some good effects, a good amount of options and 4K support incoming. It does seem to be capped at 60FPS, but this has been great for me anyway, i have a GTX780 and i am not dissapointed at all.
    CONTROLLER SUPPORT:The controller support for the Xbox 360 controller is perfect. It can be used to control the entire experience as soon as the game starts up and you can seamlessly switch between it and a M&KB. It is worth me noting that the accuracy is incredibly well calibrated and in my entire time playing i have only used the controller and have never felt at a disadvantage fighting against the M&KB players that make up the most of PC gamers. Unfortunately you cannot fully customise the controller layout (WHY IS THIS TOO MUCH FOR DEVELOPERS?), but the preset ones are very good and the bumper-jumper is perfect for me anyway. I would recommend it for this type of game
    MAPS: There are 15 distinctively different, exceptionally well designed maps. This is the first game where i don't have a favourite map, i like all of them. I never have any concern over which random map the game loads up. They are all fun to play on and they all allow for that essential balance between Titans and Pilots.

    *Private servers are available
    *There is a training mode to practice the mechanics and familiarize yourself with playing as both a Titan and On-foot Pilot, it won't take long. Also play through the campaign first as this will not be dominated by more experienced players, so you can get to grips with the game.

    A response to complaints:
    * "It's online only" DON'T BUY IT THEN!
    * "It has no single player, i want some single player!" DON'T BUY IT THEN! This was made very clear long before it was released, don't like it don't buy it!
    * "The A.I. sucks" They are there to be an easy target for newcomers so that they can get into the game and try there best to pull their weight in a small team. They are also there to add to the atmosphere of the battlefield, they are constantly dropping onto and spreading over the battlefield making you feel part of a much more epic conflict, especially when they complement you on how awesome Pilots are and how terrifying Titans can be.
    *"It's a 50GB download!" This information was also available before it's release, yes it is annoying for those of us with more powerful machines,as the uncompressed audio is there for the sake of people with dual-core processors, but at least it lowers the minimum specs allowing for a bigger player base, which we all benefit from in a MULTIPLAYER ONLY game. As for those of you using SSD's it is not going to make much difference in a game like this, how long it takes to get into the game depends upon the servers not your storage. If i'm wrong explain and prove to me why and i will edit accordingly.
    *"There's no destructible terrain!" This would break the balance between on-foot pilots and Titans, whilst the pilots can take the ideal equipment to take on Titans the environment is essential. A pilot in the open can easily be killed by a Titan and is forgoing there advantage of being able to access any part of the terrain. Maybe it will be effectively implemented in a sequel.    … Expand

    I absolutely love this game. I have BF4 and COD: Ghosts, but this game is nothing like those games, and personally I think TitanFall is even better than BF4. Let me state some reasons why I think this game is the best multiplayer FPS you can play right now.

    -Graphics are refreshingly bright and slightly cartoonish, I personally LOVE the graphics on this game even though they aren't    I absolutely love this game. I have BF4 and COD: Ghosts, but this game is nothing like those games, and personally I think TitanFall is even better than BF4. Let me state some reasons why I think this game is the best multiplayer FPS you can play right now.

    -Graphics are refreshingly bright and slightly cartoonish, I personally LOVE the graphics on this game even though they aren't photo-realistic they are just eye pleasing. It doesn't look as realistic and isn't as complicated graphically as BF4, but I prefer TitanFalls graphics. It's also a SILKY smooth game when played at 60 or 120FPS, as you can tell the engine was made for the smoothest gameplay, unlike BF4 or even the new COD: Ghosts. It's refreshing to have a dev chose smoothness, reaction times, and bright colorful graphics, over photo-realistic lighting and textures.

    -It takes you a good amount of time to die. Being that the devs of TitanFall used to be COD, I thought it would be more like COD in that you would die after only a couple shots to the chest. But that's not the case at all. You'll find that you can get away after being shot by jumping and wall-running away. And the gunplay feels incredibly smooth and satisfying, even more so than BF4 or COD. Although gunplay doesn't feel as real as BF4, I don't really care about real.

    -If you SUCK at multiplayer FPS games, you actually have a chance to be pretty good at this game. This game has more strategy to it than BF4 or COD, and while playing in a Titan, you don't have to have twitch reactions. And even if you play as a Pilot, you can use the Auto-Pistol, which locks on after about 2 seconds. The pistol isn't nearly as effective as an assault rifle, but if you can't aim, this Auto-Pistol REALLY helps, especially if you jump and move around while it's locking on. Plus there's plenty of Bots to kill on the battlefield besides the real players, which can make below average players feel like they're dominating.

    Negatives

    -The matches are a bit short. They seem to last only about 5 minutes per match. Normally by the second time I get my Titan the games already ending. Of course I'm speaking only of the Attrition mode as that's all I've played so far and I'm on level 32.

    -Another negative is that battles are only 6v6, making it sometimes difficult to find enemy Pilots to kill. I don't get satisfaction from killing bots. I wish they had a 12v12 or at least 8v8 mode with no bots, and you only got your Titan once per match. I also wish they had a Team Death Match mode where the first team to 50 kills wins.

    So overall this game is a 10/10. I don't see how someone can rate this game less than an 8 unless you just HATE FPS games. Because as far as FPS games go, this is the top of the line right now. BF4 is awesome, and has A LOT more guns and customization options, has bigger maps and more players on the maps, but TitanFall's gunplay is more fun and TitanFall takes a little bit more strategy other than just being quick with a mouse. And I like TitanFalls graphics better although BF4 is technically superior. COD: Ghosts just sucks all around.    … Expand

    This game is fun for a while, but then it gets boring and sometimes frustrating.
    Too much of the same, it needs more variety and a single player mode.

    For a lot of reasons most people on here that write reviews are nothing but bandwagon people, going onto someone's profile they gave every game in recent time a 0/10 on purpose with only a few words saying why it's bad
    I normally would not believe any reviews that either have a 10-9 and a 2-0 mainly because the people that write them don't say anything really as to why it is bad.

    I normally would not believe any reviews that either have a 10-9 and a 2-0 mainly because the people that write them don't say anything really as to why it is bad. Some guy even copied one of the official peoples review as his own. Makes me sick to be a gamer with so many people lying
    Anyways back to the game. Titanfall is a great fun game. In recent memory I have not had soo much fun playing this game as I have with other games, the thrill of being able to run around the map with parkour/Spider-Man skills as well as having a personal jet pack to help you double jump around the place. Now firstly this game does have a single player but it is done through the multiplayer with it being a normal multiplayer match with a few voice overs here and there. No I'm gonna hear people say "omg no single player 0/10" or something along those lines. But in a matter of fact it's us gamers fault. Respawn entertainment did research and found less then 15% of people actually complete the single player in games like Cod and battlefield, so why waste the resources if not many people will play it. But no people don't go and do there research and then complain because of it being their fault. The single player has a few nice map selections but I finished it for the Mechs that you unlock.
    However the multiplayer in this game is fantastic. It's easy to pick up but hard to master. Which is why so many people enjoy it.

    The maps are about the size of a small battlefield map which is great and they are all bigger then any Cod map and they are all unique and different. Another good feature is the inclusion of zip lines. It is quite fun being able to have an almost whole map with nothing but those as you can literally keep on the zip line forever and it's not slow or anything, you can get off any time you want and even hook to another one Bioshock infinite style. The parkour is also great with you being able to go really high, but not as high as BF4, shame water is an instant kill for us pilots though

    Now I could go on forever about what I like but I'll keep that for the pro section, there are a few negatives to this wonderful game though
    One of them is the lack of game modes, there are about 5 game modes in total that while fun lack any real objective. An example is you have great modes like CTF and last Titan standing plus domination, but that is it, the other two are tdm. More objective modes are needed to make the game last longer,
    My other damm is the monsters, while I know that they should not take the show of the game, some more interaction would be great, I hear that in the dlc they will have more fauna and flora which is great, as they have a map all about dragons but the dragons never attack you and another one has dinosaurs that never step on you.
    That's it really for my negatives one point though is that the game is 50gb but not all of it is uncompressed audio, they found a way to make the game run well on low end systems and this is shown through the 50gb download
    In conclusion I could go on forever about why this game is great and where it is not great, but as it stands it is very fun and I've had some of the most fun in this game then any other for quite some time
    Pros
    - Titans are fast and fluid and great fun
    - parkour and zip lines are ace
    - the maps are bigger then all Cod maps and all feel unique and different
    - all the titans feel different and unique
    - easy to pick up, hard to master
    - Grunts may be weak and stupid but are awesome
    - Game is just generally very fun
    Cons
    - single player is a little short
    - I wish for more monster interaction
    - hurry up private matches
    - lack of game modes
    - lack of content
    Score 8.5/10

    An all-round enjoyable game.
    Despite being a little over-hyped, Titanfall delivers simplistic yet fun gameplay.
    Beautiful graphics, relatively bug free to boot.
    It's basically what you would get if you threw COD, Halo, Mechwarrior and Mirror's Edge into a melting pot.
    I reckon worth a few hours fun and worth the $$$.

    The Bad.
    Mainly there is almost no content. The game has no more value than a mod to COD.

    The so called campaign... I admire the idea of multiplayer campaign but the execution here is lacking. Its basically the same exact game modes as in "classic" multiplayer but with an annoying soundtrack blasting the whole time. If you try to do well you will not pay any attention to the soundtrack, if you want to know whats going on then just stop playing and listen. It also doesn't matter what you do you automatically move to the next map so there is no winning/losing. Feels very last moment slapped together. Overall the campaign is not engaging in the least.

    the "classic" multi-player game with 15 maps and 6 games modes. The maps are mostly similar and the modes have very little differences as well. Just the way you score points varies.The maps are tiny! Why give me a massive robot and confine it into a small box? Its like a GTA game with 2 roads.
    The play dynamics are also strange, pilots die extremely easily so its realistic but very unbalanced with the titans.
    The titans not only have massive HP and a million ways to kill a tiny pilot but also move way faster than the pilots. So the game forces you into a titan whether you like it or not. "Everyone will get a titan and like it!". Also titans somehow can step on you with thier midsection... I am still confused about that.

    The matchmaking is some of the worst i have ever seen. Long waits to find anyone to play with, then a long wait 120sec for the game to start. Then at the end of the match a long wait for everyone to run to a ship. In other words expect to spend half the time waiting and the other half being smushed by a titan.

    The worst are the menus. To start or to quit the game you have to go through a long onslaught of slow menus that say "connecting". There should be no wait until I get to the matchmaking itself. There isnt even an alt-f4 option to quit. Had to bind a taskkill script to a macro on my keyboard.    … Expand

Only 3 body types and zero suit customization, I just found the game to be quite repetitive. 80% of the levels themselves look the same, dark windows, dark paint, dark stairwells.

I think towards when I quit they were just installing some sort of anti cheat, or activating, but regardless I had grown tired of it by that time, along with how the campaign ruins it as well. The best way to avoid cheaters was to play campaign, but the downside of that is sometimes teams get so stacked because of people in a party together that you can't really enjoy the game(this more so when you're new). Once I had gotten the hang of the game and met people that played on the same level as myself, we pretty much ran through anybody we played. In one of the updates on the game they did it so if you lose two matches in a row, it finds you new opponents. That's fine, but here's the other part that's killing the game. Say you just played map 5, and you beat the other team two matches in a row, or they beat you. The game then attempts to find new appoints on map 5, if not then it'll backtrack to map 4(previous map you played). Then if that doesn't work it'll start you all over back on map 1 and you'll likely run into the same people that you got separated with. So if you're trying to complete campaign or story mode or whatever it is, it makes it virtually impossible so it takes you forever to unlock the other two titans. I didn't have this problem but I noticed it in one of the updates and I've even tried to tell them this but it's been disregarded. I regret spending the money, and I wouldn't recommend anybody else buying this game, not until they actually get some people to fix the problems of the game, and that's if it's not too late by now.… Expand

    I must say some things about this game were kind of confusing and I weren't too excited about them back in the beta. Like the "multiplayer only" things. I would have liked a singleplayer version where you can practice while not having internet. It's a small thing though. After having 16 hours of gameplay now, I must say I am so happy I bought this game! It's so fun!

I really think It would have been a copy of CoD if it wasn't for those implements. Great game and it's so much fun!… Expand

    I just registered after years of following this site to post a review because it amazes me some of the reviews I'm reading.

    This game is refreshing, that's the best way to put it. It has aspects of Call of Duty, Halo, Counter-Strike, and Tribes... it's still early(content wise), but it's an amazing change in the FPS genre. The story is non-existing(who plays a FPS for the story?)..    I just registered after years of following this site to post a review because it amazes me some of the reviews I'm reading.

    This game is refreshing, that's the best way to put it. It has aspects of Call of Duty, Halo, Counter-Strike, and Tribes... it's still early(content wise), but it's an amazing change in the FPS genre.

    The story is non-existing(who plays a FPS for the story?).. but the genre is a nice modern/sci-fi setting, which really bring out the best in the modern war shooter as well as hitting the science fiction aspect with the Titanfall's.

    The mechanics of every building being scalable(sp?) is one of the greatest addition to FPS mechanics in a very long time. After letting my roommate play, I watched and realized that habit(for everyone playing) is to stay on the ground like traditional FPS, but as you start to take advantage of the ability to climb any building, it gives a serious Tribes feel... the entire map is your playground.

    People have complained about the repetitive nature.... Have you played ANY other FPS? Every FPS I have ever played.. ever.

    The game is repetitive yes, but no different than any other FPS out there. Hop in a lobby, play a map you've played before, kill people. Titanfall is neither a positive or negative in this aspect... it's done nothing in my opinion to differentiate from the repetitive nature of other shooters, but it isn't any different than COD or Halo in this aspect.

    Ultimately, the game is a fast pace shooter(fastest COD out there imo)... it has different game mechanics which make it unique(scaling any building, the Titanfalls themselves).

    The game is not for everyone, but here's the type that I think will and will not enjoy it:

    Will:
    Call of Duty players(Not the die-hards that live, eat, and breath anything that Activision throws at them, you'll never win the fan boys)
    Counter-Strike players- As a former CS player that has played several other shooters but hasn't really been hooked on any of them), this is the closest I've come to that hooked feeling. True fast paced, shoot and kill gameplay.

    Won't:
    Battlefield players- While I enjoy the BF series, it's a strategic shooter that has an emphasis on teamplay, this game is a run and gun where you can have success with or without your team.
    COD Fanboys- There are people that feel like enjoying this game is a slight against COD in some way and it's amusing but ridiculous.

    So I give it a 9 out of 10. If you enjoy fast paced shooters, you'll love this. Plain an simple. It's a return to the twitch based shooter. It's definitely the most fun I've had playing an FPS in recent memory.    … Expand

    Titanfall is a reference to multiplayer games especially new generation, managing innovation in a style of play so saturated. Despite not having a single player mode, could well understand the plot behind the battle.

    I own this for PC. This game is easily the best multiplayer I have played in a long time. The game is so fluid and crisp. Well at least maxed out on 1080p on my PC it is. So much fun and a constant rush. It actually has my attention. It is not just another brain dead shooter. I am writing my review here as well because this seems to be where most people are going for the reviews.

    Being a Quake 3 Arena since 2000, I have always had a soft spot for online only shooters with extensive action and over-the-top explosions and great movement. In Quake, there's nowhere on the map you can't go; there's nothing you can't do in terms of movement. For quite a while, I have been looking for a "modern" game with a "modern" community to play with.

    This is an AMAZING GAME!
    The negative reviews are just simply Sony fanboys that are so bitter and sad that they had put down their PS4 with all their amazing games(LOL) to come here and hate Titanfall JUST because it's not on their precious PS4.
    PATHETIC.

    Titan Fall is fun. It's really fun. It may not be the most innovative or groundbreaking but it is well balanced, fast paced, and you will not regret buying it.

    This game is fun. I've played about 123 hours so far (and another 10 of the beta), and all I can say is that it is the most fun I've had in a MP FPS since Bad Company 2 released.

The maps are well designed, the weapons are futuristic and interesting without being too unbelievable.

    You'll find many reviewers give this game a 0 without ever having played it. I would not take them too seriously. I have played it, and I recommend it to all who enjoy MP shooters.    … Expand

    Great game, well integrated Titan system, and a nice alternative from the more "realistic" Battlefield and Call of Duty games. For those who love online FPS's and want something different, this is the game. However different is all it is, it's nothing exceptional. To sum up this game in one phrase, it's Lost Planet meets Call of Duty done right.

    I give it an 9/10 - It's fun, well balanced, and you can easily loose dozens of hours. However it's overpriced with only 5 game types and no single player. You'll have a blast for a dozen hours or so, then the repetitive nature will keep this is a "side game" for you to play while you enjoy other stuff releasing this year.

    Also as a side note, I gave this game an 8/10 for XB1 because of the weaker graphics and $60 subscription fee on consoles. I recommend buying this game for PC because the requirements needed on a PC are quite low, and even an old PC can handle this fine. If your PC is old, I'd look at upgrading your graphics card for $150 over the $60 a year subscription fee on XB consoles.    … Expand

    I was waiting for a game that would blow me away and break the oligopoly of Battlefield and Call of Duty. Here it is. Titanfall shows that online shooting does not have to be confined to contemporary battlegrounds. [05/2014, p.42]

    In the mind-boggling question that tortures world's biggest gaming studios (how to refresh the competitive FPS genreĀ), Respawn answers by taking the Call of Duty core, enhancing it with elements from various sources and franchises (Mech games, Crysis , Tribes, Mirror's Edge etc.) and forging it in the Old School mold (Quake/Unreal Tournament) . Titanfall does not innovate. It manages, however, to leave a fresh taste by balancing nicely all components of its gameplay.

    Titanfall is a highly entertaining online shooter, but it's a bit light on content for a full priced game. You quickly start to realize that Titanfall could desperately use more maps, more unlockables, more upgrades and more customization. [Apr 2014]
