    This game offers everything you need to have a great time. Simple plot, dynamic action packed gameplay, nice graphics.
    It`s story is not the most original, and it`s narrative is not the most sophisticated, but it just delivers the excitement and pure joy of shooting, running, operating a titan, exploding stuff, and acting crazy.
    I had a lot of fun playing it.

    the Campaign is basically painted by Numbers for the Most part but I think it's really cool you get to play a Recruit named Jack Cooper also you its cool you get in that perspective also you get attached to Monarch Titan BT he is a cool character in his own right 8/10

    Fun and fast pace story mode. I completed it by 3-4 hours. It runs smooth in my old ps4 console.
    It is weird that the subtitle and the voice must be in the same language and can only be set in the console system setting.

    While the campaign itself may be very good, filled with creative scenarios, and great gameplay to accompany it, the story just isn't what people make it out to be, it reminds me very much of an average sci-fi movie, with lackluster characters (except for the one that everyone, including me loves), and a very make-it-as-you-go plot.

    The human enemy AI is kinda dumb and often slow to react but that's no problem on Hard difficulty (the perfect difficulty) because the game overwhelms you with sheer weight of numbers and enemy damage output. It forces you to keep moving, maintain a fast pace and to use every weapon and tool you have. I can not begin to describe how much fun this game is on Hard. I did like the Titan gameplay with it being a little slower and more tactical but not nearly as much as when i was playing as a Pilot on foot.

    Played this game after Apex Legends and was pleasantly surprised.

    Excellent story and graphics, familiar and more complex gameplay.

    What is happening in multiplayer is beyond words, cool mechanics that were cut in Apex. The pros of this game can do such amazing things that my jaw dropped.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For me this game is a solid 7/10. It's a good game but not worthy of a score of at least 8/10, the minimum rating value I consider to be must play. First off this game is pretty much a complication of other games without its own identity. I call this sellout or cliche as I consider myself a hardcore gamer. Let me break it down.....No, EA I don't like mirrors edge and never will so give up your fascination with parkour and stop cramming it. Next, let's have a talk about mechs. Fans of mech games want some but this is a niche gaming area. Fans of Transformers and little kids will love the addition of more mech but within this game he mech controls were pretty boring and watered down. IMO this game sold out imitating Transformers but with lesser gameplay. I found the mech action very mundane and throughout the conversations between mech and player were nothing more than trying to allure you to memories of how fun the Transformers series was and the developers rode that concept hard. Speaking of mech gameplay load outs...too many and with no reward of finding them. They are just right where you need them so why not include them right at the start of the game? On to gunplay, not bad. I didn't mind the responsiveness of the controls and the visuals were fair enough. Enemies AI didn't seem very bright but I honestly didn't test them out on higher difficulty as I just didn't enjoy this game enough to bother. All said this game was ok. It was quick, the game is cheap and it is relatively fun none the less. My wish is game developers stop canabalizing their market by recycling their games and concepts and try for more original games again. A game made for everyone is a game made for no one. And that explains why despite this being a decently liked game it's now $5, I would like to say if you are a casual gamer on a budget this game is a fantastic choice it does have some variety, is inexpensive and no real software bug headaches to work through.… Expand

    Titanfall 2 is another step in the right direction, but I still feel like it misses the mark. Titans aren't really fun to play as and the movement feels a bit floaty. Somehow though it keeps grabbing back and begs to you to keep playing. It's single player campaign is good, but nothing amazing. Also, the graphics once again look absolutely not up to par.

    this is solid shooter. multiplayer is fun and single player fun. i do not get the 10/10 reviews raving about the single player campaign. I agree that single player campaign is better than expected but ultimately it is not earth shattering. You should definitely play single player first to learn about different titan loadouts and how to use them. this will help you to play better in multiplayer.

    I bought Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Titanfall 2 and Battlefield One at the same time. A few days later, Titanfall 2 was the only one I felt like playing.

    Multiplayer feels fresh, the titans are fun, and there's a lot of odd weapons/combinations like the SMR (full-auto micro missile launcher.)

    For all the fun I'd give the game a 7.5, it suffers from a lot of the other issues that modern FPS do.

    - Players make very little sound, so do titans. It's absolutely ludicrous that you'll randomly get punched in the back and instantly killed by a Scorch without it making a sound.

    - Weapon balance overall is pretty poor. For all the fun and different weapons, there's pretty clearly 3 or 4 go-to primary weapons, and only 2 of the secondary weapons are worth using at all. Sniper rifles and pistols are effectively useless because of player speed, and speed of death. Why use a sniper rifle when an assault rifle kills just as fast or faster, and the G2 has crazy range? Why use a pistol at all when you need an anti-Titan weapon and you never run out of primary ammo? Only 1 or 2 of the maps are big enough for a sniper rifle anyway. Often pilot vs pilot feels more like an RNG (Flatline vs Flatline) or rock-paper-scissors (being caught out with a rifle vs an SMG or vice-versa).

    - The AI is pretty bad, you'll have these scenarios like in Bounty Hunt where the AI is insanely omnipotent and will chase you across the map and dash and punch you. I've had an Ion Titan being shot by 2 friendly titans and 2 friendly pilots single me out and kill me from 500+ feet away with a shoulder laser. The Kill Cam didn't even show it fully turn around.

    - Finally interp lag and data loss is massive problem, especially given how fast players move, and how quickly you die. 2/3s of my deaths seem to be me being shot through walls, or where the Kill Cam doesn't really match what I saw. I've had dozens of scenarios where the player OR TITAN is facing the opposite direction/dashing/reloading when I die, and the Kill Cam show something completely different. Although often the Kill Cam shows them shooting through the walls or doing something impossible, too. This is one of the main reasons I quit playing CoD.

    I've had SO SO many duels and fights where my last shot that would have been a killing blow and it make the sound and visual of impact just for it to do zero damage. I've had fights where 8+ shots make the impact sound/visual, but do zero damage just to die afterwards. This is especially frustrating with weapons like the G2, SMR, Mastiff and Wingman. Weapons with travel time are practically unuseable.

    In summation, the game is fun, but I really wish they'd fix some of these fundamental FPS issues. I was having a great time, but it was slowly drained away and just became frustrating. The better I got and the more I played the more noticeable these issues became.    … Expand

    Feeling a bit dated
    Titanfall 2 is the debut of this series to PlayStation and with this debut comes with an added 6 hour campaign… And this campaign is far greater than I had any hopes of it being in some cases, while in others really letting me down... Starting with the good, the gameplay and story here does an awesome job of pulling you towards the credits.. Very early    Titanfall 2
    Feeling a bit dated
    Titanfall 2 is the debut of this series to PlayStation and with this debut comes with an added 6 hour campaign…
    And this campaign is far greater than I had any hopes of it being in some cases, while in others really letting me down...
    Starting with the good, the gameplay and story here does an awesome job of pulling you towards the credits..
    Very early on you become the pilot of a titan named BT and as you play through the story you slowly create a bond with this machine that quickly feels like a living breathing creature…
    The banter between you as the pilot and your titan during dialog choices was a highlight for me and had me cracking up as he’s trying to understand human emotion, or comprehend expressions taking them literally…
    The campaign has you switching back and forth between being on foot and being in your titan,
    And both are so fun and feel so great, but there’s far more focus on being a grounded foot soldier than a titan pilot in this campaign…
    Luckily, being on ground can be just as fun as piloting your titan.. wall running and shooting through enemies is a blast, and there are so many cool moments in the campaign that are genuine surprises, and really cool twists the gameplay, there is a decent mix of intrigue, first person shooter, and platforming elements here… Mech fighting is even more fun, and as you progress through the story you unlock new loadouts for your titan all with their own shields, rockets, blasters, and core attacks, so you’re guaranteed to find at least 1 you love that fits your playstyle...
    Titan combat can feel much more frustrating though as you don’t have the luxury of health regenerating like you do while on foot..
    You have to collect batteries around the combat area or from enemy titans... Which can lead to some pretty frustrating boss battles... but none that ever feel unfair…
    Just take much more patience than the first person shooter, platforming sections of the game...
    Now onto the bad..
    Gameplay is definitely king, but its 2016 and while Titanfall 2 is fun enough to be ultimately forgiven… it’s nowhere near ambitious enough to look or run the way it does…
    I’m not one to usually talk about graphics, but the textures in this game are noticeably awful…
    The game really looks bad, its ugly throughout and isn’t helped by the constant dull grey color pallet I thought we got past in 2010, clearly not.. Its back and honestly does take the enjoyment out of the overall experience…
    It hardly lives up to the standard of FPS graphics of 5 years ago let alone today...
    I want to stop in a game, look around and be awed,
    here I stopped, looked around and wondered why this ps4 game looks like a mid-cycle ps3 game… which brings me to the loads…
    I can’t remember the last time I saw a load screen between checkpoints in a modern game….
    Well they’re here…. And again I really don’t understand why…
    The game isn’t pushing the limits on anything to warrant anything but seamless transitions
    I also ran into a game breaking bug in one of the final missions where a team mate fell through the map, and wouldn’t come back even after reloading the checkpoint, causing me to have to restart the chapter from the very beginning to proceed…
    Thankfully this wasn’t too annoying and is the only bug I ran into…
    And while multiplayer returns, this is my first time experiencing it, and honestly I wasn’t all too blown away…
    I had fun, but running around and getting kills to call in my titan around some basic and ugly grey maps wasn’t all too exciting…
    There are really no game modes here to make you think outside of the box and strategize like any great multiplayer would…
    Its either get kills and bank.. Every mech or pilot for themselves... pilot vs pilot, titan vs titan and the typical capture and hold or capture the flag modes but with tanks..
    Though I did personally enjoy titan vs titan the most, as I feel it comes closest to being anything but mindless…
    Everything about multiplayer though for the most part feels average, and the battles between the titans isn’t as epic as you would expect and it isn’t as terrifying as you’d expect seeing 1 as just a pilot…
    All in all Titanfall 2 is still a fun game, but the overall package is just average…
    Lacking a bit of polish and feeling like its already 5 years old...
    The star of the show here is hands down the single player and the greatly realized bond between man and titan.

    I haven't played the multiplayer so cant comment. The single player campaign, however, I give a reluctant 7 out of 10 and here's why:
    It has very smooth game mechanics that are easy to master, perhaps too easy - guns seem to hit targets with ease (aim isn't realistic), the game recommended 'regular' mode, but it was so easy I quickly moved to hard mode and it was way way too easy too.

Weird. There is fantastic customisation options to calibrate your movement and initial settings to your play style which helped me get it 'just right' for my movement style, that was a very welcome bonus. Though not being able to properly customise buttons should be stock standard these days no? why not?
    Game design is strong and original - mechs look fun and feel heavy, guns look fun and sound great, are varied enough (though they all feel like they do fairly equal damage) soldiers look sci fi and well stocked. Environments are ok, not particularly original or interesting. Sometimes the visuals were great where you could stare out to the sky and see meteor like scene of battle in the background. Other times environments were very 'meh', anything with offices in them are just so tired.
    Level design is a combination of well put together and awkward. Sometimes they got interesting ways of getting you from a to b, but also places felt to me sparse and boxed in, not enough enemies, convoluted and unrealistic corridors, but at other times it feels intuitive, fast and fun to feel like you're traversing distances that seem far but you'll eventually reach. There is a lot of creativity in level design choices, it just doesn't seem to pull it off as well as it could, especially as there isn't much options on how to proceed, just follow the enemies to the end of the level.... I'll get to the story but if it has more brains or creativity in it then the level design and execution would be a lot more varied and interesting..
    Sound is really top notch with guns, mech sounds... music was fairly typical military grandness but well done and not ridiculously obvious like some other games.. voice acting is terrible at times. There were some characters that were so laughably painful to listen to (Viper and Richter in particular, but even guy who trains you at the start had the most confusing Aussie/Irish/who knows accent. Terrible.). Cliches I had hoped would never return, returned in spades. Women who are funky and cool and dangerous.. so boring and predictable in today's fashion...And this brings me to story - where I am sick and tired of silly storylines that I've played for the past 25 years, always glorifying military and how special my character is, always making me seem big and powerful yet I didn't really earn it. Always the bad guys are bad and stupid, they have no feeling, they have typical accents (South African/Zimbabwian, again?!) mercenary theme is so popular right now its such a cringe to expect to hear it and have my fears confirmed, as though all market research insists to stick with the mercenary/money hungry and give them the exotic mercenary cliche - where is the creativity and vision to flesh out better enemies with more convincing needs?? So the story is a DIVE of cliches and military greatness, hi fives and thumbs up and commanders getting angry with me and privates saying how great they'll finally get to kick ass. Total loss of immersion in the game because of it. Thats my personal experience and it may be different to yours but its undeniable how obvious the plotline is in both being able to predict what kind of things will happen and how you'll be getting out of them.
    Campaign was also too short - It started with the grand buildup of introducing mechanics and the world which is great to get a feel for the world but by the time I felt I really could enjoy the variety in guns and putting them to use, the game descended into a mess of rushed and inconsequentially easy and idiotic decisions, pacing lost everything and became thoughtless mayhem.
    Final gripe: Constantly getting showered with new upgrades for mechs, so I cant really flesh out my existing ones without feeling I should be 'moving on' to new ones, constantly having too ammo for guns that breaks a need to strategise or ration ammo (loses immersion again).
    I will say one real positive in this game is the load times - always quick, always smart about where you died and need to respawn. Very very good and kept me going with ease.

    To sum. the game is fantastic for what it can do (Call of Duty style gameplay) and could do (imagining where the mechs could be fighting and why), but it falls so short on its story and script and voice acting so much so that I lost all immersion by halfway through the short campaign. And did I say that you cant skip those tired and painfully bad scenes? lucky there weren't many. It reduces the overall score to a 7 because those things deny me wanting to play it again, deny it from being an epic and I reserve higher scores for epics.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The shaders and graphics of this game remind me of Halo 5. The gun play, however, reminds me of Metal Gear Solid 5. At first, I wanted to say that it has a Call of Duty grade weapon’s system, but that’s not entirely fair. It’s hard to say “it’s like COD” when the game is nothing like COD. The biggest feature of TitanFall 2, that I’ve noticed, is the timed jumping/wall running/using paths less traveled aspect of navigating a mission area. In COD, things are pretty straight forward and you can tell where you need to go next at any given time. TF2 forces you to examine your environment for alternative paths to get where you need to go. And this is due to the areas you are exploring are inhabited by machines instead of humans. But as a “pilot” you have the ability to jump higher, climb sheer walls, and wall run around the inside of missile silos in order to get where you’re going. Which is fun and exciting the first time you play it, but a second play-though is not something I find I will ever do again. But don’t get me wrong, that’s not saying the game is bad. It’s just a lot of headache and complex movements that if done again, would only feel like a time sink, and wouldn’t hold much value. If it wasn’t for that complex movement system, I would have given this game a 9/10.

    So back to weapons. The guns are pretty nice. They feel good to shoot. They are accurate and have no glitches or issues that I could see. The only problem that I really found is that sometimes in certain areas, all the enemies have one certain type of weapon. So, if you have your favorite SMG and you enter an area with a lot of shotgunners. You won’t find extra ammo for your SMG. So you have to either give up your SMG for the shotgun, or abandon your secondary weapon. And I always like to have an RPG or something similar when moving through a mission so that I can take out any surprises that may overwhelm me. In short, it presents a challenge and the game forces you to switch out weapons at several spots. This might be due to the fact that I was on a hard difficulty, but I think the same will be true even in the easiest mode.

    So the plot is next, and the plot is amazing. The story is great. They did make an attempt at bitter sweetness, but kind of fell short in relation to some other games that have tried this emotional plot line. The death of a machine doesn’t really hold much weight on a human mind. The very ending of the game suggests a TitanFall 3 (but you have to wait until the end of the credits).    … Expand

Unfortunately, the main character is completely forgettable and generic and while I appreciate the mech having a voice and offering some banter, he just doesn't sell me his entire idea. He's no DOG from HL2, but to be fair he can be a battle station for you to pilot. The bosses are just different types of Titans that serve as tutorials for the multiplayer and I'm not convinced they are clever or interesting. The world building is good and all, but where is the Ravenholms? Where is the long runs down empty highways and tunnels that offer more than just (admittedly) fun platforming that gauges exploration and rewards the player? I see alot of potential in Titanfall 2's story, but it needs more to make a stronger statement to me.

    The multiplayer is equally good but troubling. The good parts is the combat and fluidity of movement is really awesome, allowing you to take down pilot and titan alike in a range of versatility. The inclusion of free dlc and class setup is a nice touch, but my problems lie also in the fact the game modes are lacking and because of the way the game was sold at launch, the servers are essentially dead and laid bare. Finding a game is difficult and I feel that it doesn't deserve this because it is a good game that deserves better.    … Expand

It's a really fun campaign with a number of cool, memorable moments. The time travel level in particular was brilliant, and although part of me wishes the mechanics introduced in that level were kept for the duration of the campaign, reserving them to just the one mission made it a very special one indeed - that level brought the fun factor to a new high. The mechanics are very similar to those from the séance level from Dishonored 2 and they made both gunfights and platforming even more enjoyable. The campaign is brief but action packed and it doesn't have a dull moment.

    The actual story is wafer thin though and the writing is quite bland. The plot and characters are uninspired and uninteresting. Your titan companion, BT, is likeable but that's about it. I was expecting a bit more in the narrative department, especially after the introduction of time travel, but unfortunately it ends up having no bearing on the plot at all.

    As for the multiplayer side of things, I have to say that it's pace and fluidity is unmatched by most other online FPS games. It's not revolutionary, and really it's mostly standard fare for games of its ilk, but it's undeniably good fun. The ability to call down and control your titan is perhaps the series most unique aspect and it does add more variety to gunfights. There's a decent number of maps and game modes, and you can still easily find a match without an excessive wait. There's some good verticality in the maps which is easily utilised thanks to the pilot's jump kit.

    Overall, Titanfall 2 is a good game with a fair amount of content when considering both the campaign and the multiplayer. It's also not too difficult or time consuming to get the platinum trophy for those that are interested in that. I enjoyed my time with the game and I'd still easily recommend the campaign despite the weak story, and the multiplayer is worth a go too.    … Expand

    The best way to describe the gameplay in Titanfall 2 is fluid and precise.

    Far from the footnote it could have been, Titanfall 2 is a huge, headline shock. In a standout year for the shooter, this interstellar adventure dares to go big and beyond the familiar. What it finds out on the frontier is worth seeing. [January 2016, p74]

    The core Titanfall moveset is a joy, and it has been thoughtfully expanded with a delightful grappling hook. [Jan 2017, p.112]
