    Was fun for about 3 hours. Most f2p mods have more content. Essentially 6v6 with really bad AI to act as a filler. The story is unbelievably short and very cliche. Multiplayer has a couple of the regular game modes with absolutely nothing new to add. Just a major let down!

    4. Most guns have no recoil, even sniper rifles

    5. Dated source engine, dated graphics

    6. 50GB due mostly to uncompressed audio

    7. Lack of content - maps are very similar, game modes are very similar

    Overall: Fun gameplay, the experience gets exponentially better if you have a few friends to form a team with. The lack of content though and really poor matchmaking system is going to severely decrease the lifespan of this game though, I can see myself getting bored within the month. I'm hoping map-packs and updates will extend the life of the game though, it's pretty fun.    … Expand

    Clustermuck sums up the experience. In multiplayer, the game has legions of AI enemies that make it difficult to tell which target is an actual player and which of them is just 1s and 0s, and thus, you end up shooting at the wrong person and getting shot in the back. The experience can only be described as chaotic, but not in a good quake 4 or doom 3 way. No, instead, it's just boring.Clustermuck sums up the experience.

Load times are unbelievably terrible, and after a match is finished, you have to wait for 1 and 1/2 minutes to begin the next round :/ I've... Never seen a shooter quite like Titan fall. It's certainly not a good way to make one. That was a wasted $60. Oh yeah, and you can't win unless you're using a titan, so the matches degrade into whether you're lucky enough to not get shot by 2 enemies in titans ganging up on you, because after you lose your titan once, you have to wait an absurdly long time until you get another one. Stupid. Went back to Battlefield 3 within 2 hours.… Expand

    Definitely a great game, with some flaws that'll hopefully be patched out later. Movement is phenominal and my favorite part of the game. The Titans are cool and new, but I would prefer they had more utility other than being just another way to shoot at each other (note: was hoping Exteel but more shooter based).

I initially had a problem with the "smart pistol" in the beginning, but after playing for a while I came to the conclusion that it's only really unbalanced during Attrition.

    There are a few problems that keep it from a 9/10. For one, I hate the level up mechanics. You shouldn't be limited on your equipment just because your new (see Counter-strike for how it should be done). Now player skills are a different matter, but you should have all the guns you need immediately. There's also the AI. The titan AI is actually great, but the minions are so incredibly dull. I stood in front of one for minutes while it shot at me and missed constantly.

    I'm gonna do one more section: negative points other people give it.
    1. 6 v 6 is fine. You'll meet enemies more than enough to be satisfied. Stop complaining.
    2. Graphics seem very hardware dependant, people complain about bad textures but mine look great.
    3. Frame Rate is a little rough here and there, but those fixes will be incoming.
    4. I'm fine with no Singleplayer if a game is built around Multiplayer correctly (which this is)
    5. Recoil would be a negative thing in this game. There's too much vertical movement to include a weapons recoil. That said, EVERY gun is recoil-less so it doesn't actually unbalance anything. Just get used to it.    … Expand

    The game feels smooth and the pilot mech interaction is excellent. The first couple times you play the game it's fairly impressive but sadly it's downhill from there. There's very little to no content and the maps all feel the same. Few game modes make this game feel incomplete. Overall it's overly hyped and while it plays well there's very little substance.

    Firstly, Titanfall's motion mechanics are insanely fun and satisfying, adding a whole new twist to how you can use a battlefield. Going back to Halo 4 and CoD Ghosts after playing this game made me realize just how much was added to the game by the jumpkit. When you are in a one-on-one fight, you don't have to strafe and duck and go prone--actually, there is no prone option anyway. IfFirstly, Titanfall's motion mechanics are insanely fun and satisfying, adding a whole new twist to how you can use a battlefield. Going back to Halo 4 and CoD Ghosts after playing this game made me realize just how much was added to the game by the jumpkit. When you are in a one-on-one fight, you don't have to strafe and duck and go prone--actually, there is no prone option anyway. If you were to do so, you would probably get thrashed in every pilot encounter. You have to think in terms of escape and elusiveness, jumping and wallrunning your way to safety and, hopefully, a good flanking position to get the kill for yourself.

    The maps are all beautiful and lend themselves fully to a pilot's parkour approach. The gunplay is solid, and Titans feel strong but not godlike, as any pilot or other titan can kill you with a bit of work, while you retain the ability to dispense a quick and violent death to any pilot you find, so long as they don't get the drop on you, and a solid chance at taking out a few enemy Titans before you are blown apart. The incorporation of titans can really change the way even classic gamemodes play, and while there are only a few modes at launch, they all work rather well. I mean, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? The Titan's non-regenerative health system is a big help in leveling the playing field.

    As for sound, the music and "announcers" are both excellent at setting and keeping a fast-packed, heat-of-battle mood that matches up with the frantic shooting that you'll be doing both as a titan and a pilot. The game's campaign mode was a nice surprise, adding needed depth to a really beautiful space-frontier backdrop while also making players work for those two extra Titan formats. Customization is simple as of yet, but gives enough variety--both on the Pilot and Titan sides--to let you really rework your gameplay the way you want.

    The burn card implementation is an interesting thing, and when in the right hands an amped weapon or tactical package boost can be devastating. They can certainly change the balance of a match if utilized to their fullest extend, but the fact that they disappear after a death makes players think before using them and keeps them from being too overpowered. Thank the lord that you are limited to one card per life. Also, it's great that pilots get three weapons, their primary, secondary, and anti-titan guns, and also that anti-titan weapons are generally too slow to hit pilots. No more RPG noobs.

    Now, the bad parts. While the Titan combat is very fun and pretty balanced, the maps, in my opinion, do not always give you much room to work with. I'd say that each map will have a slant towards either pilot or titan combat, but the titan-slanted ones still allow pilots to run and gun as they would, only requiring a bit more care to getting stomped or blasted. On a pilot-style map, titans are much more vulnerable due to smaller streets and alleys, along with taller buildings, giving pilots easy points to shoot at or jump onto Titans. This, coupled with the server malfunctions at launch, the occasionally broken scoreboards, the presence of very few tactical packages, the lack of diversity in gamemodes, and the lack of private matches and clans made me consider giving this game so low as a 7, love it as I do, but Respawn has voiced their dedication to expanding the game as time goes on and adding many of these things for free. With that assurance in mind, I'm much more comfortable giving the game a 9 and enjoying what's available right now for what it is; a very fun, incredibly beautiful, fresh-feeling fps in a market saturated by Modern Warfare's and their knockoffs.    … Expand

    Stop it. Stop releasing console FPS on the PC. We really, really don't want to play this garbage.

    Titanfall is a derivative of COD, with a giant gimmick of mechs, which unsurprisingly is poorly implemented.

    PC gamers have higher standards for their first person shooters.

    Hawken is a better game than Titanfall.

    First, I would like to clarify that my real rating is a 7.5 but I decided to round it up since a lot of people are being a bit too harsh on this game and giving it a 0 (games that deserve a 0 are horrible games that never deserved to see the light of day, not a game that isn't your cup of tea).

    I would also like to throw this out there. I feel that this game was limited because of Microsoft and their demand that this be the MUST HAVE GAME for the Xbox One. That means that isn't a lot of content in the game compared to some other rivals (missing a true campaign that truly explains what is going on, only a handful of game modes, very few weapons and limited game mechanics).

    This game is great for an Xbox One game. 6vs6 on that console is good since the console is pretty lacking (It's like the older brother of the Wii U). But for the PC...it can be a bit disappointing. The graphics are nice but they're not GREAT or AMAZING. It's not the kind of game that makes your rig flex its muscles. It's the game that's meant to be played by the masses (like WOW). Now for a game like WOW that's fine since those type of games are never about graphics, but FPS are the most eye candy games.

    I feel that for the PC the graphics should have been much better and the maps should have been 125-150% larger with 10vs10 matches not 6vs6. I have no problem with enemy AI, I just feel that they need to be adjusted because they're simply too weak. Honestly, if anything I feel that they're just a distraction. They're the pieces of turd that are hiding the good stuff (pilots).

    As for balance, I feel that the game is pretty balanced so far (but hey I've only played for like 90 minutes or so). This is the kind of game in which you can jump in for the first time and do some damage or simply get destroyed due to your lack of your surroundings (and inability to focus on the mini map to distinguish between AI and Pilots/Titans). For a console game, it's worth the $60 price tag, but for a PC game...I feel a bit ripped off. I think that it should be $40 or at most $50.

    Now down to the point. Is this game fun? You can bet your rear end that it's fun. It's extremely fun and it makes you want to come back for more. I had to chose between this or MGS Ground Zero (PS4) and well I chose this game. I can see myself playing this game for around 100 or so hours (I only have like 20-22 hours in BF4 and somewhere around 40-50 in BF3). This game has been hyped but it's stable. I can actually play the game and don't have to worry about having my game crash or have some audio problems or graphical glitches or even lag due to poor programming.

    In a nut shell

    Pros:
    -Fun
    -Addictive
    -Simple controls (no complexity)
    -Mechanics simple
    -Noobs can have fun
    -Losing isn't that bad
    -My blood doesn't boil due to getting killed from lag or some crap or having my game crash

    Cons:
    -Was obviously made for the Xbone (bone box)
    -Limited graphics for the year 2014
    -6vs6...should be at least 10vs10 with maps that are 125% larger
    -No legit campaign mode (A bit disappointed. The original COD PC games had fun campaigns that were worth playing)
    -Limited physics (Titans should have the power to destroy buildings...Come EA!!! Let Respawn use that Frostbite engine. They'll put it to better use than Dice).    … Expand

    I feel as though this game is getting a lot of shrapnel for things that are not in any way its fault, nor indicative of the actual game experience. Many user reviews, both on Metacritic and outside of Metacritic, cite a few reasons over and over again for their absurdly low scores, scores which seem to be lower than they should out of some kind of spite to drag the score down. Here's whatI feel as though this game is getting a lot of shrapnel for things that are not in any way its fault, nor indicative of the actual game experience. Many user reviews, both on Metacritic and outside of Metacritic, cite a few reasons over and over again for their absurdly low scores, scores which seem to be lower than they should out of some kind of spite to drag the score down. Here's what I see:

    1. Bots ruin gameplay
    2. Only 6v6
    3. Dated graphics
    4. No singleplayer
    5. Call of Duty with mechs

    All of these points are either inaccurate, or should not be held against the game.

    Firstly, let's tackle the ones that are factually true: 6v6 and no singleplayer. The game does not advertise itself as a singleplayer game and then deceives you. Respawn set out to create an immersive multiplayer experience, and that's what they're delivering. If you want quality single player content, this is obviously not the game for you. Dark Souls II just came out: I highly recommend it. Nobody would rate Counter-Strike: GO lower for not having a single-player, and this feels like a double-standard to me.

    The 6v6 player limit is a good thing. Titans are massive and if there were more than 12 running around, the maps would become flooded and the experience would be an awful mess. Despite that last remark, the maps are expansive and beautiful, and each one is unique and depicts a stunning sci-fi landscape.

    I also think its hypocritical to use the 6v6 player limit against the game, but then say that bots ruin the experience. The bots make you feel as though you are engaged in a large-scale battle that is going to have a tangible impact on the war between the two in-game factions. They add a lot to the experience, and were not simply thrown in haphazardly. There is one game type in particular where farming them will lead to victory.

    Many have remarked that the game has dated graphics, and on this point I will concede that Titanfall does not hold up to upcoming titles like Infamous: Second Sun or The Witcher 3. However, there is something to be said for both the art design of Titanfall and the high standard games like W3 and Infamous: SS set for the industry. The game looks beautiful because of the art design and weapon effects. The aesthetics alone make up for the slightly outdated graphics, and I enjoy looking at this game much more than graphically superior titles like the Crysis series.

    Finally, the biggest critique is that it's just CoD with mechs. I think anyone who truly believes this hasn't played more than a single match of the game. The amount of gameplay driven content is staggering: The game places a huge emphasis on both freedom of movement and Titan driven combat. Many complain that the Titans don't feel heavy enough, but that's subjective at best. The presentation for the Titans is very well done. These are power-suits, not Mobile Suit Gundams or other giant robots. Many critique the "lack" of customization, citing other games like CoD or Battlefield as having more, and to a degree, this is true. But each weapons in Titanfall is a solid and useful entree. I can't tell you how many guns have been included in CoD titles only to be never used prestige after prestige.

    In brief, negative reviews for this title fail to recognize all of the things the game did right: Freedom of movement (a call-back to arena shooters and something that hasn't been done right since Halo 3 or Tribes: Ascend), ground-breaking gameplay features that create a more immersive multiplayer experience, and the balanced implementation of mechanized power-armor, not to mention the high quality of presentation. I believe that the game is getting heat for feeling very similar to Call of Duty in the gunplay department, but the title has so much more to offer, and people tend to forget that while the franchise may be declining after so many rehashes, that doesn't make the gunplay from the original Modern Warfare less good.

    This should also not be viewed as a highly competitive title. I have enjoyed a healthy competitive experience with the game, but it does not replace the drive or satisfaction I get out of titles like CS:GO or SF4.

    I will concede that the price point is extremely high, but I rarely pay $60 for any game these days, and I do not believe $60 should be the industry standard. Thinking that a lack of a rehashed, 6-hour campaign that is so prevalent in modern-era shooters should be held detriment to this title is preposterous. I didn't like them tacking on multiplayer in Bioshock 2, so why should this developer be forced to deliver singleplayer content in a clearly multiplayer-driven game? Titanfall is definitely worth looking into. Origin even offers a 24 hour grace period to return the game, something that Steam fails to offer (maybe the only thing Origin does right). It's really hard to lose out here because of that.

    If parkour and robots are your kind of thing, definitely give this a shot. I'll be hooked on this one at least all summer.    … Expand

However, while I love single player in shooters I'm not going to complain at the lack of a single player campaign in Titanfall as that's not what the game is about. What I am going to complain about is the lack of depth in the multiplayer. It is, simply put, not a deep multiplayer. There are a good number of maps, but the game modes feel like something's missing (even though to be perfectly honest I can't figure out what modes need to be added.) I think in a game that's been hyped as changing the face of online shooters I expected Respawn to be the ones to come up with something to change the game. Turns out their answers were: a) giant robots and b) easy to kill AI.

    There's something to be said for the ease with which someone who is not a pro can hop in and FEEL like they are achieving something, even though at the end of a lot of matches I find out that I am actually not the powerhouse I thought I was. This is not a bad thing- the game is fun and manages to be fun even if you aren't topping the charts. However, at $60 will the game keep you entertained for as long as other "big box" shooters? That depends, really. I feel like the game needs more weapons (and maybe a little more balancing as a few of the weapons are brutally effective even in the hands of someone with poor aim.)

    Another thing worth mentioning- despite some minor login issues on launch day this game seems to have had the strongest launch in recent days for EA, which was refreshing as I had the game preloaded and was ready to go at midnight.

    Enough rambling, here's my breakdown:

    Pros:
    Adrenaline pumping, exciting shooting with very few lulls
    Excellent map design with no room for campers or dead spots
    "Verticality" means you WILL be running on walls and climbing in order to get a good vantage point, and you will love it.
    Easy to pick up and play even if you aren't a pro at twitch shooters.

    Cons:
    Shallow weapon progression/options means you'll likely stick with one weapon for a long time.
    Same 'ol, same 'ol game modes- none of the game modes really stick out
    Lack of party chat/VOIP support even though the game supports private party lobbies seems like an oversight.

    All told, 7/10. The game needs... more. At $60, I had hoped for a full vibrant experience, and while I really enjoy the game I continue to see the invisible wall that seems to have been set up to allow for paid DLC in the future. If this DLC comes fast and heavy, at an affordable price and with new maps, modes, weapons, and most of all TITANS (something else the game needs more of), then I think I will continue playing into the future. If not, well.. there's always Call of Duty, which while it's not fresh and new, it's a fully featured and realized game, something which Titanfall falls just short of being.    … Expand

    Gameplay is really surprising, there's always something about the controls that throws me off on pc. Call Of Duty is hyperresponsive and oversensetive, but if you put down the sensetivity, it's unbrearably slow.

    Battlefield 4 and 3 are good in that regard, but it feels kind of wobbly if you know what i mean, when you're done turning the mouse, the characters gun is still kind of turning and it feels like you're carrying a 400pound weapon. In that regard titanfall in my opinion nailed it, smooth controls with no oversteering.

    Gameplay might get repetetive if you're looking for a revolution in shooters, you basically have a low selection of weapons and attatchments at your disposal so there isn't much variety there.
    A lot of people might say that the game plays like CoD, but I think that it depends on your own playstyle. I feel like it's a completely different game than CoD simply because you have this parkour mechanic and the titans that mix up the strategies in the game so now you don't have to mindlessly run around, you now have to find a way to be sneaky about capturing flags without being over-sneaked yourself, you need to find a way to maneuver the maps without getting stepped on or smashed to bits by a titan.

    When you do compate the game to cod, you might be able to notice that it's the original developers of cod who made it, but in reality, it's a completely other game.

    In Crysis 3 you have the cloaking ability to go see-through and almost invisible, why? I'd like to think that it's because that the developers know their playerbase well enough to say "well, our players are running around and they are using the cloaking ability tactically" and they're right, i've personally never seen anyone camp in Crysis, with or without cloaking. but why am i talking about camping? well because CoD is pretty known for it, there's camping everywhere whereas in Titanfall there's not camping at all, and there you also have the ability to camp 10 times more affectively than in Cod because you can cloak AND you can use the parkour-mechanics to get up on a good spot, but noone does that.

    I think the game is FUN, which i can't say about many games. In battlefield i'm having fun when i'm winning, in cod i'm having fun when i'm not playing it, but with titanfall i'm having fun no matter how i'm doing. I love how they made a multiplayer game with a story that's the least in-depth i've seen in a while, but it's still incredibly immersive.

    Graphics are good, not amazing, but good. I've not come across anything that i find ugly in terms of graphics. Haven't really impressed me either, so is this a problem? absolutely not. Titanfall doesn't remark itself in graphical fidelity, but in gameplay, that's where it shines, and the gameplay is damn good.

    I'm hoping that there will come more weapons with upcoming DLC's, and they don't go the route of CoD by making numerous of dlc-packs that isn't included in the Season Pass, because there IS a lack of weapons.

    A thing that i love about it is that there's a relatively small amount of keybindings, and then the keys does several things, but you can only do one of the things that the key is bound to at a time because you need to be in a titan to do the other thing that this given key is bound to. makes it feel very simple and easy to overcome.

    Overall the game is good looking, plays incredibly smoothly no matter which graphics-settings i'm on, good responsiveness in the control, and it's FUN, which i can't say about many modern shooters.    … Expand

    A really enjoyable title. I personally haven't enjoyed the last few COD titles, and find Battlefield has never quite stuck it's hooks in me. That being said, i'm really enjoying titanfall.

The multilevel battlefields with titan's at ground level, and pilots at any level(often taking the high ground) makes for really entertaining fights. Personally, it has enough game modes for me... i can't think of any other specific modes that i would find necessary, that other similar games offer. the tried and true are here, and they work really well. The map variety really has an impact on how you play, and there's plenty of freedom on some maps to make calling in a titan only ever a tactical choice instead of the go-to choice. On other maps, titan's rule. Definitely a good game for those that buy Battlefield and COD for the MP, not the SP (honestly, i can't remember the last time i played through the Single Player campaign of a Multiplier game, eg, COD and BF unless there was an unlock to get.… Expand

    A fun high speed take on the competitive shooter. Game is a light on content, there aren't many maps and all the game play modes are tried and true. If you like team death match and hard point games types then this game will server you well. If you are sick of Battlefield then this might be a fun alternative. If you can pick the game up on a discount, I say go for it.

    Previously I could not get the game to run smoothly at any resolution except 1080p. It would actually run just as poorly at 720p as it would at 1440p idk if this is a driver issue or what but it is annoying having a gtx 780 ti an a 1440p monitor an not being able to play a game that I should be able to easily run at said resolution, hopefully this will be patched or a new driver released to fix this. That said I would recommend this game if you enjoy run an gun style that is easy to play but hard to master.

    (Original review) The game looks great when I enter the tutorial but as soon as i enter into multilayer im hit with fps drops an even frame skipping to the point of not being playable.

    Many have claimed this game is a revolution, they are wrong, this game is an evolution of the FPS genre that despite lacking in content, is the most fun and well designed FPS on the market.

    To preface this review, know that I am someone who values depth above all else, I play grand strategies (mostly paradox games) more than any other genre followed by twitch shooter, ig Counter Strike,    Many have claimed this game is a revolution, they are wrong, this game is an evolution of the FPS genre that despite lacking in content, is the most fun and well designed FPS on the market.

    To preface this review, know that I am someone who values depth above all else, I play grand strategies (mostly paradox games) more than any other genre followed by twitch shooter, ig Counter Strike, and this translates to how I play games and influences what I value in games. I will break this review down into several categories and give a congregate score and a score weighted towards my preferences.

    Graphics: I thoroughly enjoy games which are presented in a graphically appealing fashion, Titanfall, while not ugly and somewhat stylized, isnt particularly impressive as it runs on the decade old Source Engine. I will give credit to Respawn where credit is due however, this is the best looking Source game that has eve been released, with this game, they have displayed that they have the potential to create graphically impressive games in the future.
    Verdict: 6/10

    Sound Design: This game has an amazing score, the IMC theme being particularly impressive. The voice acting is impressive, is highly varied and does not become annoying after playing for long periods of time. Titan sound effects are varied and are great as well. The guns however, sound like BB guns, much like Call of Duty's weapons, this is extremely disappointing considering that this issue was brought up on Respawn's forums many times from the moment of Titanfall's reveal which leads me to believe the devs do not care about their fanbase.
    Verdict: 8/10

    Story: Respawn has built a rich universe surrounding Titanfall, FPSs especially are known to be lackluster in term of lore which makes this all the more impressive. As well, over the past 3~ years, Multiplayer Campaigns have evolved incredibly. I am very disappointed at Titanfall's Multiplayer campaign as I had extremely high expectations of it. The story takes place across 2 1.5 hour campaigns, Narrative is conveyed through scripted events, pre-game set-pieces and dialogue between matches. Despite these being multiplayer campaigns, they are very linear and often, player actions feel worthless and failure is impossible. Not only was the story itself disappointing however, the characters also lacked, well, character. In the 3 hours of Titanfall's campaign, the player learns nothing at all about the characters and character development is nonexistent; This game being from the team which created Call of Duty 4 makes it all the more disappointing. If you buy Titanfall, play the single player campaign once for both sides, then never touch it again.
    Verdict: 3/10

    Level Design: This game has the best level design I have seen in any FPS since Quake, hands down, it possibly exceeds Quake depending on who you ask. you have to play it to understand what i mean. The maps are well balanced between Titan and Pilot gameplay, my favorite maps are Nexus, Angel City, and Fracture; my least favorite maps are Rise and Lagoon.
    Verdict: 10/10

    Gameplay: This is where Titanfall is at its strongest, the parkour abilities afforded to players, the titan-pilot interaction, and the gunplay are all superb. Never does a match of Titanfall feel boring ( I have played for 30 hours so far). I have never had as much fun with a modern FPS as I am having with Titanfall. Again, one must experience this to fully grasp its excellence.
    Verdict 10/10

    Balance: Titanfall is highly balanced, only one weapon feels underpowered, and the rest of the weapons all fulfill their own, unique roles and no weapon outclasses the next in every situation. As they introduce more weapons into the game (they will according to their community manager), this balanced could be lost as Respawn has no experience with DLC/ Patch weaponry. Only time will tell.
    Verdict: 9/10

    Content: While this game excels in what it does, what it does is very limited. This game only has 5 gamemodes, none of which are unique, and only a handful of weapons. Very disappointing to say the least. However, this game does have 15 maps at launch which is quite staggering. Decide for yourself if it has enough content for you.
    Verdict: 6/10

    Polish: This game feels incredibly polished and fine-tuned. Everything just works and it has very few bugs (currently, the only known bugs relate to random frame dips on both PC and Xbox as well as minor graphical bugs) or exploits. The game was marred by some annoying server issues on launch day ,however, these issues were quickly addressed. Few games are this well polished at launch.
    8/10

    Notes: This game costs $60 and thus might be too expensive for many PC gamers who like to buy games on the cheap. It is also exclusive to EA's horrible Origin service, a huge negative for some.

    Closing Remarks: If you are someone who thinks that game mechanics and gameplay are more important than anything else, buy Titanfall.

It would be one thing if BF was a mechanically sound FPS with all of that content but it just isn't and you have to sacrifice gameplay for content which I'm glad they didn't. I've already gotten my $59.99 worth of fun out of this game.

    I went into Titanfall with an open mind, looking forward to trying out some of the 'cool' mech walkers that the game surrounds. I had read very little about the game, having only watched one or two promo videos.

    To this end I did not know to what extent the game had no campaign. I clicked 'Campaign' to discover that I was immediately thrown into a multiplayer battle. I did fairly well being a veteran of multiple FPS games but found over the next few missions that the story was essentially non existent. This isn't a deal breaker by any means. I play many games that are 'Multiplayer Only'. I would just rather not be duped into thinking there WAS a campaign.

    Still, I persevered with the shallow storyline excited to experience what looked to be a seriously polished and revolutionary game. I kept playing waiting for Titanfall to grab me the way that it seems to have grabbed everyone else. It just didn't happen...
    The entire game feels shallow and 'by the numbers'. There's nothing new here that hasn't been done before and often, done better.
    The game looks fantastic and runs smoothly the gameplay and levels are shallow.
    After three sittings trying to enjoy this game, and I really did want to enjoy it - I asked Origin for a refund.
    I am no fan of any specific games, I am open to anything good. I have read people say that people don't like it because they are 'noobs'. I am by no means a noob, I am just a gamer who has seen a lot of games over the years.
    There are a lot of bad games out there as the market becomes saturated with more and more A+ titles.
    This is one of them.

    If you are looking for the next fast paced shallow FPS then this will probably satiate you.
    If you are looking for one of those rare games that actually warrants critical acclaim, look elsewhere and save your money for something else.    … Expand

    I'm tempted to give this game a 10 just because there's so many many trolling the score with 0's. But then i'd be adding to the problem myself. A 10/10 game is once in a thousand and a 0/10 really shouldn't exist unless the game is almost non-existent. The user reviews in metacritic make the user score pointless.

    Anyway I'm giving it a 9, but would probably give it an 8.6 or so if    I'm tempted to give this game a 10 just because there's so many many trolling the score with 0's.

    This game to me is the best multiplayer fps since the Halo 2 days. It's endless fun, and there's almost never a break in the fight. You're constantly on your toes: jumping, wall running, zip-lining, hopping on enemy and friendly titans, gunning people down, drop-kicking **** and crash your titan into the battlefield to wreck some ****

    Sure there's no real campaign, but they didn't advertise it as a story driven game, you know what you're buying. It's a beautifully crafted and balanced medium scale pvp fps. People saying it's just CoD with jetpacks, and parkour, and mechs, and an entirely different setting and gameplay dynamic.... well then it's not really just CoD anymore. If anything I'd say they've taken the good parts of the franchise(yes there are some) and applied it to this wonderful game. Knocking it for not being on sony consoles and being 60 dollars isn't at all a way to review the game itself. Could they have dropped it to 40-50 bucks? Sure. Will you get your moneys worth buying it for 60? Hell yeah, you could easily put 60 hours into this game in a couple weeks and much much more afterwards. You can always purchase it for less later on, it shouldn't reflect on the quality of the game though.

    In conclusion, look for honest reviews on this site, avoid 10's and 0's because they're both extremes of people who are too passionate to be honest. If you're an fps fan, buy this game. 9/10. The End.    … Expand

    Cons:
    The game is just so damn repetitive. After about 5 games you've pretty much experienced the entirety of the game, and with no singleplayer there's nothing else to do aside from multiplayer. I've had the game for little over a day now and I'm already bored of it if I'm completely honest. The final game feels nothing new compared to the beta and it really is becoming tedious to play. The only reason I'm writing this review was because I just left the game out of sheer boredom and felt like writing a review instead of playing a brand new game I just spent £30 on, that's how 'exciting' this release is to me. There is also a complete lack of weapons and game modes in Titanfall. If Call of Duty ever had any success, it was down to it having so many game modes to choose from and a rich variety of weapons to unlock. Titanfall has something like 5 game modes and barely enough weapons to keep the game fresh and make you look forward to unlocking stuff.

    An okay game to buy/play if it's on sale for £10 in the future, but don't waste your time paying full price for a game you'll enjoy for maybe a week before never touching again. I'm also a big FPS player, and this is very disappointing for me.    … Expand

Maps are big and there is hundred of variants of attacking the enemy. Number of players is good enough, you will not be alone or get lost. It's not a COD-like. But I always have a feeling that this game is just checking of new conception, some kind of demo that was created by Respawn. So, I think second part will be awesome.

You can tell the developers at Respawn put a lot of time and effort to create a well-balanced and fun shooter game for everyone. It's definitely become of the main games that I will be playing for the next few months. I mean the game really tries to make you feel good in every way possible. For people who are not too good at FPS, they can stack up XP points by killing AI-controlled soldiers and obtaining titans in that fashion. Basically, everyone has a fair chance of doing well in the game. There's really nothing that tips the scale one way or the other. They even allow you to escape the map on an evacuation ship if you are the losing team. In a way, if you (individually) do escape, you "win" as well. Anyways, it feels really great to jump on walls and buildings and get to the other side of the map in matter of seconds while destroying giant robots along the way with some easy AI kills.

    Despite all the praise about the gameplay, I have to knock off a point for not having a great campaign mode or any sort of meaningful story line. All the components are there for a great story but they totally blew it on that part. I wish they had a single-player offline story mode that at least takes you through the story about why they are in a civil war and how titans were created to begin with. Other than that, it's a great multiplayer online FPS game with tremendous potential for the future. I see this game escalating into a franchise at the level of Halo and COD.

    3- Titanfall is a combination of a Call of Duty Productor + EA Games + Microsoft Plataform. Could it be worse?
    4- Like Call of Duty, Titanfall was made to make noobs happy. On both games is very easy to kill. Just hold the trigger and the weapon will do the magic for you. You can be far away from the target, but all the shots will go perfectly straight to it. The weapon dont have recoil, is so artificial. All this things make the game more easy for the noobs.Even Counter Strike 1.5 has more realistic weapons than CoD and Titanfall.

That said, my actual experience didn't come close to living up to the hype. First off, if I spend $85 on a game, I'm expecting amazing graphics and lots of content. On a modern gaming rig in 2014, the graphics are awful, combined with the fact that the maps are tiny and there is not very much customization, and there are only 15 maps. The combat mostly seems to be running around in circles and frantically jumping and firing until someone's shots (which aren't even affected by recoil) hit the target, then they die. It's difficult to tell the difference between opposing players and the AI bots, made worse by the fact that the AI bots are completely and utterly worthless. Then, the worst part, the size of the game: 50 GB for this little content because we need uncompressed audio for ten languages? Is Respawn for real? It's like they don't want people with decent PCs and SSDs to play the game, because there is no way this game should be taking up 1/5th of a decent sized SSD for this amount of content, for no justifiable reason other than to help people with bad computers, which the graphics were clearly designed for (I'd be happy if the graphical settings could extend higher up, but nope). When I play a FPS, I like there to be aiming and strategy, and to start you have three methods of aiming: a rifle which you only have time to shoot from the hip, a pistol with an aimbot, or a shotgun. Where's the skill? It's all reflex. So to sum it up, Call of Duty style action (as a seasoned Battlefield player, that's exactly what I don't want) in tiny maps without much customization, and terrible graphics to go with taking up a whopping 50 GB of space. I am completely disappointed.… Expand

    Titanfall's about as innovative as FPS games will get, and infinitely more fun than any CoD out there. I feel it defines the genre of FPS. While it is true that it doesn't have enough to be worth $60 contextually, it's worth it if you've been looking for a shooter that isn't either bad, or CoD. Or Battlefield, but don't get me started.
    All in all, worthy game, extremely fun, and only going to get better as more stuff is added in (hopefully not in the season pass. That's the only major negative).
    The worst part is: EVERYONE uses the same downright IDIOTIC argument: "zomg cod with mechs zomg time to go sacrifice me son to the gods of half life 2 now zomg", when that argument is wrong. Parkour fits into the game. Titans fit into the game. Does CoD have this? No. It has a terrible community, and that's all. Titanfall is unique. If anything, HAWKEN is CoD with mechs. It plays exactly like it, but you're in a box made from a kindergartener in a scrapyard. It isn't CoD with mechs. Stop being stubborn.
    I find it hilarious how people continually downvote the positive threads, even if it's only a 5. Evidence, you ask? Almost EVERY rating between 3 and 0 has EXACTLY 7 opinions on it, and usually 6-7 people who agree with it. It seems like a community of basement trolls has gotten together to hate and rage.

You and the other players are the heros.

    The game has some issues that need fixed. It needs a much better match making system.

    Weapon damage & accuracy are both a joke, unless you just pub it up with a shotgun map after map, and that's not a solution, that's adapting to bad balancing.
    Bots were presumably added to combat this out-of-date player limit, but they only hamper the fun due to their horrific, laughable, erratic, incomprehensibly terrible AI behavior.

    It having been shipped to both PC and XBox at launch, this has prevented the PC version from being able to fully realize its potential, which may be resolved in future PC-only updates. For the time being, do not waste your money on this game..

    I could start this review with a bunch of bare facts like:

    In this multiplayer shooter we have two ways of playing: as an infantry soldier (the Pilot) or as a Mech (the Titan). We have over a dozen maps and several game modes.

    No, this game is different. It is hard to describe the adrenaline rush that you are experiencing before game starts. The moment when I destroyed the opponent's titan with my bare hands for the first time was like jumping into a pool filled with cocaine. Never tried cocaine, and I don't want to, but this is how I imagine the feeling. I even sang "WHO IS THE F..KING WINNER" to the melody of "Drunken Sailor". And then I got killed for the 14th time. Damn it...

    When I died - because an opponent had summoned his titan to fall directly on my head; and when I had fun unlocking new achievements; and when I was gaining upgrades I needed; and when I never get lost on the maps I've never seen before; I couldn't believe that developers could manage so many elements and don't break the balance of the game. You won't experience wandering, confusion in the upgrade system or very slow reloading of the magazine. Every single death is only your fault - you either didn't have a plan how to enter the battlefield or you missjumped from one rooftop to another. Even the HUD it made in such a way that it displays everything that we need to know at exact moment without distracting us from the real battle.

    This game will crush you, and it does not forgive. But it also gives you a chance to survive more than 3 seconds without a headshot just after respawning. Some might complain that there are only 6v6 battles and, since maps are not that small, while running around we can arrive somewhere where nothing happens because the main fight is a bit farther. But such empty places are the only moments when we can stop and think about our next move - the rate of exchanging fire in the center of the field rarely gives us time for it.

    And you have to think - this is not a single player game. The most important fact is that owning a Titan doesn't give you a clear advantage. Of course Mechs are more resistant and can smash the infantry with one stomp while firing a salve of missiles but the 'ants' are not defenseless.

    Pilots not only have 'go-away-titan' weapons, but thanks to their mobility, can take advantage of a moment of distraction and jump onto the back of the battlemachine and eliminate it from the fight with a precise shot in the cables. Despite the physical advantage over the pilots, both "forms of life" are well balanced. This is not a choice between a better or worse chance of gaining new frags, but between two completely different ways of playing. In short - but not precisely - the player chooses between strength and firepower of a Titan, and the flexibility and mobility of a Pilot.

    The choice isn't easy. The mobility is crucial to have a chance on the battlefield. When you play as a pilot you will discover that you have to learn a completely new way of moving around the map. This game is closer to Ricoshet from Valve than to BF or CoD. Jet belts gives you the possibility to double jump and to do amazing parkour tricks. The maps are so well-designed that there is always a wall to run on and surprise an enemy by jumping from above him. And even if you are on a certain map for the first time you will never feel lost.

    You can feel that this game was designed for hardcore gamers, but - the "true gamers" now have to take deep breath - it doesn't smash newbies just because they had the courage to buy it and login. But don't get to excited, newbies - you will be smashed. But you will receive a few seconds of life more than when you first logged to CoD. Firstly - the aforementioned empty spots on maps. Secondly - disposable upgrade cards that will hide your weakness at the beginning.

    The only reason why this game won't receive the highest note are the game modes. After all those new gameplays and tactics, Respawn Entertainment gives us old-fashioned Domination and Capture the Flag. It pains me that they didn't prepare at least one original game mode. Probably the game is supposed to become the new e-sport icon like it is CS 1.6, and that's why they didn't want to rewrite all rules from scratch but the bad aftertaste remains. And releasing new game modes as paid DLCs may discourage some players. Fortunately there are sites like kinguin.net where you can buy it cheaper than on Origin.
    Now, if you'll forgive me, I'm going to send some Titans to the scrapyard.    … Expand

    oh, and fyi...i play this on the PC so dont give me any of that "you're just a disgruntled sony fanboy crap".
    With that being said lets talk Titanfall. 1 Day before launch I got sucked into the Hype and preordered it...luckily from a keystore so i only paid 35€ instead of the usual 50€ retail...

    I see the Review Scores of high 80s for this one and im beginning to scratch my head and ask myself if our expectation have really dropped so low that this game gets such a high rating.
    While not being terrible or even bad i consider it simply mediocre.
    heres a couple of pros and cons

    Pro:
    -The Titan Gameplay and the way you can customize the weapons on the Mech is fun, really enjoyed that part alltough i do get the feeling at times that some of the higher lvl abilities create too much of a gap to low lvl players
    -The Sound Design is pretty decent...in the non campaign multiplayer modes. the constant voiceovers when playing the campaign are annoying.
    -The Parcour Part adds a fun component ... on the downside it gives new meaning to the term bunny hopping...

    cons
    -Graphics...you can tell its a console port...the first i saw some of the textures up close i had to go into the options menu cause i thought i had set them on low or something...turns out it was the highest setting. with that being said, even with the awful textures the game sometimes runs choppy(on a comp that can run crysis 3 on high with no issues...and there are worlds between these 2 in gfx quality)
    -Map Design...again, being a battlefield person, i expect maps to have a certain flow, not to mention scale. imo titanfall lacks both of these. the maps are tiny and allow for very little tactical gameplay.
    the maps also dont really have a distinctive feel to them...the textures may be different but in the end they all feel the same.
    -6v6 ... for a Multiplayer game in this day and age this simply is emberassing. half the time youre shooting bots and not players.
    -the Bots...useless...plain and simple...not once have i been killed by a bot so far...these things cant hide the broad side of a barn from 5m away...
    -game modes...considering this was supposed to be the next big thing the game modes really dont offer anything new
    -bad automatch system...im not even sure if there is a balance feature here. quite often one team starts being outnumbered by 2 ... then you join a game with 6 lvl players below lvl 10 in it going up against 6 lvl30+...oh yeah...and there is nothing but automatch...no server browser or similar.
    -the perks and unlock system is rather shallow. there really isnt a lot of choice there.
    -the autoaim pistol...this has no business being in a competitive shooter, end of story.

    What i've come to realize is that if you, like me, didnt like CoD you're not gonna like this. The game cannot deny its ancestry and as such, while being an improvement from CoD it certainly doesnt bring anything worthwhile new to the shooter genre in general.

    bottom line...
    is it an improved version of CoD ? yes
    is it more than that ? no ...    … Expand

They're making huge profit margins out of this game with that $60 asking price. And its a source game so it wasn't difficult to code.

    Anyways, the gameplay, like i said it gets boring after a while if you don't play with anyone, and the 75% of people being bots, and 25% being real is also unnaceptable. This game had great potential @ E3 and i was super excited, but i'm not anymore. I have a ps4 and a PC and a 360. I'm not planning on buying this title for any platform until its $30. It simply not worth the money. Its call of duty with mechs and jetpacks and parkour. Sure its a breath of fresh air for a while, but it quickly fades into the same old ****

    Like i said the main problem with this game is the price and the repetitive gameplay. You're not offered alot, and other $60 games give you alot more content for the same price.

    Maybe the gameplay wouldn't be so repetitive if they took out the bots? when i played i rarely ran into any pilots, and when i did they were usually on rooftops or in titans. 90% of the game is killing these retarted bots, getting your titan, and fighting other titans. RINSE AND REPEAT.

    Sure, it's a console port : textures range from okay to downright mediocre. At least, on my decent-but-by-no-means-anywhere-near-high-end rig, the framerate never drops, even in explosion-heavy dogfights, and frankly, for a FPS, that's all I'm really asking for.

    But when that's out of the way, it's Section 8 (a very nice futuristic shooter from a couple years ago) but with a budget. It's nervous, action packed, and the dual scale Pilot-Titan is surprisingly well-handled. What I mean is that I expected everyone to rush to their Titan all the time, but it ends up being very fun playing as a pilot as well. Titans are much more fragile than they appear, and well coordinated pilots can be as destructive to them as other Titans.

    The mobility takes some time to get used to but it ends up reinforcing the overall feeling of speed.

    Most of the weapons are unlocked pretty fast, and even if some higher-level upgrades undeniably provide an edge to assiduous players, I got the feeling that skill, coordination, map-reading and tactical sense remained the main factors in victory.

    Overall, a very fun game which is getting trashed for its price and its DLC politics, which is alas legitimate.    … Expand

Now enough with the negatives. The game is quite a bit of fun. It runs off a highly modified source engine, which I don't know what you think, but is probably the best engine out there for gameplay. I can probably see myself playing this game for a while as this is probably one of the best shooters in a while. I can recommend this game to COD fans and if you really like the idea of controlling enormous mechs, it's pretty badass I must admit.

    Here's what I found and I'll also explain my viewpoint.

    The game gets started right away with a minimum amount of fuss and a very intuitive and streamlined tutorial, anybody familiar with any type of fps should feel right at home. I breezed through the tutorial and felt comfortable getting into the game immediately.

    Playing my first game was a seamless experience, nothing overly complicated to get into a game with people and start shooting things, story was minimal, but I don't mind that when I know I'm getting into a game with the reputation for being a "parkour-shoot-em-up."

    Graphics look great, no complaints there, my system had most of the settings on medium/high so if you have a rig that can go higher, you'll probably have no issues with that either.

    However, the game play itself was haphazard. Attrition or holding hardpoints are the two of the main types of multiplayer, and I found myself running around and shooting at everything that moved without enjoying much of it. There was so much explosions and fanfare that I didn't have time to appreciate a really awesome shot or even enjoy the playing experience myself.

    Maybe because I'm a gamer that requires a bit more substance, but this game's type of throw everything in your face at once and see how you handle it didn't appeal to me. It was like TF2 but with mechs. Completely insane and fun gameplay if you enjoy that sort of thing, but I did not.

    I enjoy games where I know what's going on and can play strategically, this didn't feel that way. Perhaps it would have been better with a longer amount of playtime but I wasn't willing to risk 60 dollars for that. Returned it and am waiting a refund from EA's Origin system.

    I'm glad I gave it a chance, but if you don't like shooters to begin with, this "revolutionary game" probably won't change much about that.    … Expand

    First let me state that the low user score for this game are related to ps4 fanboys and cod haters.

    Titanfall is simply great however it is not revolutionary. It mixes the fast paced, low recoil gunplay of cod with parkour and mechs. It may seem like just cod with mechs but it is much more advanced than that. Titanfall is a diffrent kind of fps. It feels sortof like a moba. There's    First let me state that the low user score for this game are related to ps4 fanboys and cod haters.

    Titanfall is simply great however it is not revolutionary. It mixes the fast paced, low recoil gunplay of cod with parkour and mechs. It may seem like just cod with mechs but it is much more advanced than that.

    Titanfall is a diffrent kind of fps. It feels sortof like a moba. There's early game, mid-game and late game. There are minions. There are diffrent lanes which have their own advantages. You have to kill minions and other players to shave your time off so you can get your titan early. Since titans can't jump you have to make use of diffrent pathways to your advantage.

    So let me explain how titanfall works.
    In early game you have to rush to the battlefield and kill the early wave of creeps so you can get your titan.
    Once you get your titan the mid-game starts and you have to use your titan against other titans and players once a team bested another the end game starts. The losing team have to escape to the dropshop while the winning team has to hunt the players down.(you don't respawn in late game)

    This structure makes it diffrent than any other fps because it changes as the game goes on. And knowing the maps can help you a lot.

    Yes the maps... Titanfall has some of the best map design in recent memory. Maps are designed so that you have many parkour opportunities, Titans have diffrent paths which give them flanking opportunities. And there are some indoor sections for some cqc.

    Let me talk about the titans, once your titan timer hits zero you can mark a location and your titan will drop in 5 seconds. It feels extremely smooth jumping to a titan. They have a very bulky feeling when it comes to movement. But they can dash to avoid incoming projectiles and other things. They are equipped with a primary weapon as well as an ordanence which is usually a missile. They have a shield as well as a health bar. The shield will absorb about 90% of the damage and will regenerate over time, the health bar will not regenerate. Once your health reaches zero, your titan will be "doomed". In which you have to eject.

    Once you eject it will throw you up into the air. In which you can plan what you are going to do. One of the things you can do is to try and attemp to rodeo another titan. In which you will jump onto its right shoulder and you can shoot inside of it ignoring shields. The pilot inside can disembark and try to kill you manually or if he has it activate electric smoke. In which will kill you if you enter it.

    Electric smoke is a tactical ability. Both titans and pilots have a tactical ability. Which they can use to their advantage. Pilots have things like cloak and titans have things like "bullet magnet that you can use to send bullet back to your enemy kinda thing (vortex shield)". It adds a little bit more strategy to the gameplay.

    Let's talk about weapons. There aren't many weapons in titanfall however they all feel very diffrent and focused. Having small number of weapons which I use every once in a while is much better than a gazillion of recolored guns. But I would agree that there is a lack of unique weapons. There is only the smart pistol that is worth noting. Which was classified as a "newb" weapon at launch. Because it locked onto enemies and got headshots. It is practicly an aimbot. However it is a very fair aimbot. It is very useful for farming minions if you want to get your titan early. However it takes a little bit of time to lock and this time is much longer on pilots. And on pilots it's going to take multiple headshots. So if your enemy has noticed you you will die by their assault rifle or shotgun before you can even get a lock.

    As everybody knows titanfall is 6v6. When annaunced everybody was like "lame". And said that it will be boring. This design choice is more of a "how cs is 5v5" kind of thing. The game and the maps are balanced for 6v6. The maps are bf4 kind of large but they don't feel empty. Because of minions there's plenty of things for you to shoot at. If you feel that you should fight with pilots and titans more than the maps will fall apart.
    There will be too many titans so pilotss will be ineffective and there will be too many titans and the map will be just overfilled.

    Many of you've heard that Titanfall will contain story elements in its multiplayer. The translation of that is you start being deployed from an airship, there's much more audial feedback and you have to escape in the end.
    It's actually quite good as just being placed and seeing a countdown feels stupid and awkard.

    But then it falls apart...

    Titanfall has a campaign mod which is simply classic multiplayer with burnt caramel chocolate on it. (word limit sorry). The performance is overally good. The game is about pace than performing the best. And curse metacritic for putting a 5000 character limit. I wrote this long to show you the game isn't just cod with guns and doesnt get boring after 5 hours.    … Expand

    Balance. Whether you are in a Titan or running as a Pilot, you stand an equal chance in battle. Everything balances each other out so you don't feel like there's cheap deaths. Subtle, but fantastic.

    Now, the cons. Honestly, I only have a few.

    The price. While I got this game 20% off in an Origin Spring Sale, I still think $60 is a bit steep. Go deal-hunting for Titanfall instead of paying full price.

    Two minor things: I wish there was the ability to vote on maps and rename custom Titan and Pilot loadouts. One of the biggest gripes I see has been resolved: there's private matches now!

    Titanfall is great. Each time you play, you're presented with fresh and diverse challenges and you'll have an awesome story to tell from each and every match. Pick it up, and enjoy.    … Expand

    Quality game right here. Titan fall meshes the age old COD fast style of gameplay with twist of MechWarrior and a dash of Tribes.

    If you're wary about user reviews, don't be. This game is fast passed, fun, though at times can feel a bit repetitive (though what games don't have this problem now-a-days.) If you're hoping for a tactical shooter - THIS GAME ISNT FOR YOU. If you're    Quality game right here.

    If you're hoping for the next BF3 - THIS GAME DEFINITELY ISNT FOR YOU.

    This game is fast passed close quarters combat, heavily driven by small teams stacked with AI assistance. You will occasionally get to call in a Titan (think COD killing spree here), those these Titans are not all powerful and with a little bit of coordination can be taking down quite easily.

    Match making needs a little tweaking, as team stacking seems to be an issue. However with the simplicity of the game interface, joining another game is simple and fast.    … Expand

    Looking for an extremely fluid, well made multiplayer FPS? Titanfall is the best in a long, long time. This game is designed very well, with excellent controls, game mods and attention to detail. This is a game you can easily put over 100 hours into without it getting stale.

    If you want single player modes this isn't the game for you. People hold that against the game for some reason    Looking for an extremely fluid, well made multiplayer FPS?

    If you want single player modes this isn't the game for you. People hold that against the game for some reason though. It is designed to be a well made multiplayer FPS, it had no intentions of ever having a single player mode and the thought that every game has to copy exactly what CoD does is a problem with the players, not the game.    … Expand

    Titanfall is a very solid fast paced FPS game. As many have mentioned, it's CoD + robots. There are a number of faults with it though:

    * the AI skill level is set way too low. They're more of a distraction than anything. * poor matchmaking. I can't count the number of times one team is stacked over another. Not to mention some of the less popular modes like last titan standing    Titanfall is a very solid fast paced FPS game. As many have mentioned, it's CoD + robots.

    * poor matchmaking. I can't count the number of times one team is stacked over another. Not to mention some of the less popular modes like last titan standing takes FOREVER to find a match.
    * inability to really play with your friend. There are no clear indications of where your friends are (they've patched it to make your friends show up in a different color -- but that doesn't help). You should either be able to spawn near your friend or have a bigger indicator in the 3D map that shows your friends.

    I've logged hundreds upon hundreds of hours into BF series but I feel like I'll get bored of this game pretty quickly.    … Expand

    ¡Tremendo juego! Hace mucho tiempo que no me divertía tanto jugando en linea. El juego esta bien optimizado para PC y es bastante balanceado. Mi modo de juego favorito es "Last Titan Standing". ¡Simplemente espectacular!

    This is not a freaking cod with mech's or cod with some extras! Jeez kids, DONT compare any new shooter to that god damn call of duty which is ruined a generation of FPS games! So about the game: the game is an awesome adrelaline pumping FPS. The infantry combat mixed with mech's is good in my opininon, yet sometimes calling in your mech makes you a target of the enemy!

    Revolutionary? Yes quite. I had a lot of fun too. But ultimately it fails to give the full package. I felt as if the game was missing too much. It felt more like a futuristic Call of Duty with mechs, joke single player, pretty engaging multiplayer. I hope they will provide more mechs, more customization and more maps.

    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 genre), 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]
