    Graphics are solid and what I would expect for a game of this stature, they are very satisfying to look at.
    The pace of the multiplayer game took time to get used too but after a few games you realise how much the game needs to be fast flowing otherwise it just wouldn't be the same.
    The weapons are well balanced without any clear winners, each one is suitable for a given situation and there is enough in there to choose from and the modifications are very useful in there own way without making them overpowered.
    The titans themselves are something to fear when fighting but you have to think carefully when using your own as they are not overpowered and can easily be brought down when outnumbered this adds some great teamwork as you see players working together with there titans.

    The maps are a really good size and doesn't affect that it is 6 v 6 as I think anymore players would make the game too hectic to play.
    Also the audio in the game is 10/10 as there are loads of little things that make the gameplay just spot on and so immersing.
    The campaign is a bit weak but to unlock the other titans must be played but it does give you an insight of the story of the fight between the militia and the IMC.
    Other than the campaign the game is almost the perfect shooter with the DLC supplying fresh maps to keep the game interesting.    … Expand

    Titanfall stopped me from selling my Xbox one. It is fun, different enough, and is really good for a fps. The online play is fun, it reminds me of the first call of duties, before they repackaged the same game's expansion maps as a new game every other week.

    Titanfall is everything it promised to be, a fun and addictive first person shooter that brings back the fun to the oversaturated FPS market. The inclusion of new game mechanics such as wall running, double jumping and the titans is what the gene needed.

The inclusion of new game mechanics such as wall running, double jumping and the titans is what the gene needed. My only gripe is the campaign which is just the same multiplayer modes available rehashed with some real time background story as you play. You won't care for the characters or the story to be honest as you will be too busy looking for the next pilot's neck to break.
    The games is so well balanced, and at last I am pleased to say that campers will get there backside handed to them. The burn cards are great variation of perks and only last as long as you are alive, which adds the perfect balance, making sure that people do not have that unfair advantage that COD gives some players, or at least what some people believe.
    The titans are in a league of their own, when you hear that "stand by for titanfall", you can't wait to scramble in and kick some butt!! However if you think the titan is the boss of the battlefield, think again. It only takes you to be outnumbered by other titans or for an enemy pilot to be on your back, and suddenly you are not the badass you think you were. Which brings me back to the game being exceptionally balanced, which includes the weapons, of which there is not the variety that you get with other shooters, which I think is a good thing.
    All the guns seem perfect and not overpowered, and with the games challenges you are semi forced to try out different weapons, which can surprise you as some guns you would not usually want to play with all of a sudden becomes your best friend.
    So in a nut shell, don't listen to some of the negative reviews posted on here as we all know it's the idiot fanboys trying to damage the rep of the game. This is a good fps and was needed to refresh the genre, just look at Call of Duty already taking a leaf out of Titanfall's book and trying to up its game with the double jump etc. Says a lot when the world's most successful shooter of all time is learning new tricks from the new kid on the block!!

    PROS:
    Great fresh FPS which makes a new stand in the genre.
    Perfectly balanced
    Titans!!
    And Pilots!
    Very complex maps, with levels of all height - you are no safe anywhere campers!!

    CONS:
    "Campaign" - Should of been left out to add more maps for example
    A bit bare bones in regards to modes and lack of single player
    Story Narrative uninspiring

    Best FPS to come out in a long while - will keep you entertained for months to come!!

As you run around killing enemies such as Artificial Intelligence and other Pilots, you reduce the time it takes for your Titanfall, which is a huge mechanical version of your Pilot. The diversity of game play is limitless in its own way. I love how this game introduced a new variation to Death Match game types. Attrition, a game type where you score points called attrition points that can be earned by killing enemy Grunts, Specters, Pilots and Titans. There are also other ways to earn attrition points for a more tactical game play. The game isn't to difficult to play but it does take some getting use to. I was a little discouraged to find out that the Campaign of the game is basically Multiplayer but with a story. You can not play this game without an Internet connection so please keep this in to consideration. More content could of been added to this game upon release but overall, I am satisfied with what is already placed inside the game. If I were to rate balance in weapons, I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10. That's my review. I hope it helped!… Expand

While Titan-fall does bring all these interesting and 'game changing' technology to the modern FPS user-base, it does have some lackluster drawbacks. One of my main concerns is the 'campaign' which more so is just another playlist of multi-player. While this would be beneficial to people to prefer to play a campaign with real players, it was somewhat lacking in player-base numbers making it difficult to find a suitable match. Another minor concern was the actual A.I as them seemed very underwhelming in skill and didn't seem capable of actually inflicting much damage to human pilots.

So first off Titanfall is absolutely gorgeous from the huge yet incredibly detailed set of maps to the character models and the weapons, +1. Titanfall brought parkour and mech combat to the first person shooter genre, something that I think will stay for the long run in this genre, +1. Titanfall's game play is extremely dynamic, taking linear based first person shooters and making them 3D. No longer do you have to worry about some noob sitting in a corner with a shotgun or some **** laying prone in grass with a light machine gun. Titanfall takes the overused concept of first person shooters and makes it new and exciting again by adding dynamic combat systems, I could play this game for hours on end, +1. And now we get to the campaign something which Titanfall is heavily lacking in, despite their best efforts to attempt to include a "campaign" in the form of a game mode in this entirely multiplayer shooter, Titanfall falls short on the story aspect. The reason I am criticizing a solely multiplayer game on its lack of single player is the fact that the multiplayer is already filled with a backstory, if the developers just took a few minutes to come up with a story I think we would have a flawless game here, -1. Obviously as stated the multiplayer is amazing and there isnt much more to be said, +1. Flat out entertainment value is what really matters and this game delivers... almost, the lack of story is what kills it for me, 0.… Expand

    Titanfall is a very good game! The maps are great, the connection is perfect, the gameplay is very good and fluid, my criticism of the game is due to lack of weapon choices and balancing bad team, not to mention the achievements that are poorly made ​​and sold an incomplete game without all the maps (I know who wants to buy, but it's slutty put the achievements of DLCs to spoil your 1000G)

The multiplayer campaign is over pretty quickly, leaving no impressions whatsoever regarding the story. There basically is none. Graphics are slightly outdated (even on release), but that had to do with the not-so-fresh engine they used and it's not exactly ugly, either. Just some noticeable tearing here and there, but nothing too distracting. Apart from these things, Titanfall is quite a good game. I never liked shooters that much, but this game was and is a lot of fun. I think the controls are nearly perfect, shooting, running, jumping, jet-packing, all the movements feel very balanced and are just a ton of fun. If you liked Quake or any other twitch-shooter, you'll probably like this. If you're more, say, Halo-oriented as far as gameplay and speed goes, you might find Titanfall to be somewhat chaotic. I needed a while to get accustomed to the game's speed but now I feel other shooters to be much too slow and clunky. Mastering the controls is the greatest element of fun in Titanfall. Having a great run of shooting, jumping and wall-running while ordering your titan to drop and then dropping into it seamlessly just feels great. Camping is not an option in this game, which again shows off the good balancing. I still play this and am very much looking forward to the next iteration. This game is cheap on the used game market right now (also cheap on the digital download market), so just try it out. I hope the next one comes for all platforms, so no bad blood between the PC/PS4/XBone users will be found.… Expand

    Titanfall's biggest problem is a lack of content. The gameplay is excellent, its meat and bones and although several new maps have been added via season pass it is still somewhat light. More customization has also been added along with new modes and it seems Respawn are very much listening to their player base. Its a good start for a new studio.

    The Titanfall I think is a very fast-paced and exciting multiplayer game. Many game modes, weapons and maps on the game. The graphics are very nice. Once or twice had to be a bit erratic. If you had a good campaign in it, you deserve smoothly, the 9 points. However, so only worth 8 points.

This game brings a lot of great things to the table like the ability to play as on-ground pilots with parkour style movement or as giant controllable mechs, and there is no point that you are in either that you feel like either isn't a threat to bringing you down. The pilots have a fair amount of weapons to chose from, including ones specifically designed to bring down a titan from a distance. The titans do feel like they lack as far as available weapons. Both titans and on-ground pilots do have some cool abilities to make different styles of game play better. For what it is this game is nearly perfect in my mind, but it's the lack customization that brings it down a bit for me. The only way to alter the appearance of you pilot is really only based on what weapon class that pilot is holding, and the titans really don't really have any kind of visual customization at all. They give you a hint that emblems earned (for meeting certain milestones, just like the Call of Duty games) that you have selected will be seen by other players on your titan, but really it just shows up on your gamer card. In all; the game play is amazing and fun but the lack of customization does leave just that small bit more to be desired.… Expand

    Unfortunately, this has been getting a bad wrap. On the contrary however, the gameplay and classes are much to be desired in such a game. from vaporizing pilots with your titan's fist to hacking into enemy units, Titanfall has changed the playing field for many FPS games coming out in 2015.

    Titanfall's gameplay holds up as one of the best found in the FPS genre within the last decade, with plenty of inspiration and creativity thrown into the mix. Respawn are clearly very talented game developers and know what it takes to make a game actually fun, however the game is held back by its lack of variety and customisation.

It lacks single player, the AI has got to be a joke, I think they should of spent some time tweaking the AI considering this is suppose to be the new current gen... The shooting and movements are nice albeit it reminds me of Cod and mirrors edge crammed into one game.There is nothing innovative here. Now, the maps in this game are pretty cool, they give 15 maps to play around with, this is very copl of them, but since this game is only online it should be expected,
    if this game only had 5 maps it would get boring quickly... I still find this games online aspects are better than CoD, I don't really like CoD much anyway.. If they make a sequel to this game I sure hope they add a single player campaign, if they would of added one in this game I would of gave the game an 8 or 9... I would of rated the game 5 but I feel like this game is being a little unfairly rated by some people so I added two points to help the score.

It plays flawlessly, runs at 60 fps barely any glitches if none at all and the servers are fast and efficient. So what they set out to do they did great. The titan fighting feels really cool and something different. The guns feel the same I pretty much used one gun through out the 10 hours I played and it wasnt the smart pistol. But like I only put in 10 hours which for a shooter is pretty normal now a days and I love FPS's I just think they get boring.

    Aside from a few minor quibbles (I can jump across streets and hop over entire buildings, but a knee-high window ledge is insanely finicky to get past?) Titanfall is undoubtedly a great game which does an exceptional job of breathing new life into an increasingly-stale genre.
