Is pic related proof that good games will pass by unnoticed if the marketing doesn't go full retard with stale mtndew/doritos commercials/twitch streamer gameplays these days?
Yes
Also the response from the first game didn't help
The campaign is ok but the multi is awful
>>378683541
Not op but why do you think it's awful?
although weapon balance is absolutely fucked it's the most fun I've had in an fps in a while
>>378683541
Nope multiplayer is some of the best I've ever played and easily the best of the past year. I haven't had this much fun since I played Battlfield 1942 or the original COD.
>>378683317
The funny thing is, they actually did, just not as much as BF1 because EA Gaymes doesn't know shit about putting their eggs in the right basket.
>>378683317
This wasn't that great. They should've gone for 60fps on consoles. My casual friends can't play it because they say it feels "sluggish" despite being faster than CoD.After listening to them describe it and laying it a lot, I realize why they couldn't adapt. The only online FPS they've played is CoD, which, since MW2, has always been some form of 60fps consoles. They could never get into this or any other console shooters because they couldn't make the downgrade in the movement. Also, I realized that frames really do matter, and casuals can't tell what's off, but they can definitely tell something is off.
>>378683685
Underpowered titans
Take those away and IW is a better jumpy shooty game
Titanfall 2 literally had Mountain Dew marketing.
And this is coming from someone who loved the game.
I really do love this game, I really do
But I can't play it anymore due to the fact that has no Ranked Mode of sorts and the low TTK is getting very stale for me. Shootouts aren't as exciting as they could be when everyone dies at 1 graze or you're killed instantly from behind of from a random bullet.
I wouldn't want the game to be super high TTK but a bit higher. Running around and jumping at 100kph is awesome and so is fighting midair but gets stale when it starts to feel more like a grinder and less of positioning and landing hits.
>>378683876
IW's movement mechanics are significantly slower, especially if you use the stim boost in tf2.
Titans are powered just fine, you can do some real damage to one if you're a good pilot, but they kill enemy pilots in 1 hit so there's no room for error.
nerf all smgs and what do you know the game is fun again
>>378683541
>Multi is awful
What
>>378683317
It was being sandwiched between CoD and BF1. That is something that can be called full retard.
>>378683541
>multi is awful
The only thing multi needs is better map rotation, which Respawn said they were working on anyway.
>>378683960
It had Mountain Dew AND Doritos marketing. It was even advertised at Buffalo Wild Wing's.
Despite all that I still didn't even know the game had been released for 2 months. This game flew completely under the radar.
When I told my friends that it was fun they were all "They made a second one?"
A lot of people didn't know this game existed for the longest time
>>378684498
Here come the titanfall General cuck boys
>>378683685
I cant stand the bunny hop slide mechanic in multi. I stopped playing when everyone started doing that. Bunny hopping in any fps game is cancer but this takes it to extremes that people are moving at sanic speeds and if you dont do it too you might as well be moving at a snails pace in comparison.
What's the best gun and why is itthe EPG?
>>378684934
>slidehopping is relatively difficult on console
>mfw still fast enough to tear up sniperfags and ADS shitters without it
>>378685139
That's not L-STAR
Titanfall 2 was one of the best games last year. It had a good single player with several neat ideas.
The multiplayer was different than Titianfall one. Took a while for me to warm up to it but in ways it is better than the first because you can tell what kind of Titan you are dealing with.
>>378683317
If it didn't have such terrible fucking multiplayer maps and was as fast as Titanfall 1 it would be perfect.
>>378685265
the worse t
hing about it on console is t
hat it only works without autorun on, so you have to jump, splie, hold left or right for the straife and hold the left stick in too.
I heard the pros change their controles to the L buttons tor slide and jump, but still that left stick held in is annoying.
Imo it is a nonsense mechanic in an already fast paced game, that unfortunately separates the casuals from the tryhards to a big margin of speed. and in this game speed=winning
>the ((((( new Titan))))) has re used out the ass
Titanfall was not a good game.
Its campaign was literally 2 hours of boring corridor-shooting that never got interesting and was just anonymous boss after anonymous boss.
Its multiplayer was not much more than that. In fact, it was less.
>>378685663
>change their controles to the L buttons tor slide and jump
Yep, been doing this since TF1 because I did some research before diving into MP, keeping both thumbs on the sticks is crucial for aiming your jumps and now the grapple.

>The time travel level wasn't interesting
>That level where you storm an enemy base with other titans wasn't interesting
>Hacking tool level wasn't interesting
>>378686062
>boring corridor shooting
Did you forget the time-traveling segment or climbing an entire prefabricated town flipped 90 degrees?
>>378683317
Titanfall 1 was shit so naturally the sales of 2 were not going to be stellar
The death of Titanfall 2 was the lackluster of a multiplayer

>Weapon balance is horrible
>Titans cannot be properly customized like in 1
>Character models are shit compared to 1

The singleplayer was fantastic though and they did add some neat new guns but that's about it. 1's multiplayer was superior though.
Also the grapling hook would have been the natural evolution of the movement system but instead they make it an ability

You have a rocket pack strapped to your ass so it makes perfect sense in universe, and also it's insanely fun. Speed and 3D maneuvering are the whole point of 'foot' combat in this game.

No one played the original TF 'campaign', I didn't know who Barker was either, but he's a named character voiced by Liam O'Brien and he saves your ass when no one else could, while piss-wasted no less.
Also, it's a sequel, if you don't know the story from the first game and buy the second with the intent to play Campaign then it's your own damn fault forr not knowing a previously introduced character.
I didn't start saying "who the fuck are these dweebs?" when I met Geralt's buddies in The Witcher 2, I accepted that their story was told in the first game and I'd have to look them up or read the books or something.

This game is the most enjoyable multiplayer fps I've played in years. I don't know why it has lackluster sales exactly, but I don't care anymore. I'm gonna play it until it's officially dead and the get depressed when the fact that TF|3 will never happen.
>>378689450

Being released around battlefield 1 and CoD:IW really didn't help. Which is definitely a shame because of the three, titanfall 2 i find to be the best.

This game should have won GotY and Multiplayer of the Year over Overwatch.
The only reason Overwatch got those awards is because it had diversity, and look how far that got it.
Titanfall 2 has released more free content in 6 months than Overwatch has in a year.
>>378689549
Your post is shit, fuck off with the "muh shills" while people are actually discussing a game
Thoughts on the Monarch so far?
I really should have paid attention to the developers because the upgrading thing caught me by surprise.
>>378689896
We could get away with saying that in the first couple of months, but the game has gotten a lot of praised and should have gone in the direction of Siege. Yet it still has shit sales.
>>378690228
I don't know. I imagine that Respawn would probably be hesitant about a third game at least until they were done supporting their Star Wars title.

Fun game but as someone whose serious FPS experience is practically nil, this is daunting. The last time I played I was trying out air-strafing and I could chain hop in a straight line but doing both feels nigh impossible (PS4 here).
Speaking of which, I shamefully admit I haven't played since mid-March. Is anybody kind enough to give me a rundown on major stuff?
>>378683541
Kinda
Its very unbalanced
The scorch titan is unplayable
Shitscan weapons ruin the game

The game didn't sell well because it's release window sat between two juggernauts of the industry and it got fucking smashed. Maybe if EA weren't retarded and delayed Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2 would have killed Call of Duty.
>>378689209

bullshit debunked for months. the game gets shilled fucking everywhere as GOTY, where are the player numbers then?
didn't help that respawn went full retard during it's development and never actually improved.
>>378698276
More like it failed because Call of Duty tards only care about COD and dont want to deal with an advanced movement system, and the """hardcores""" dont want to play it because it's still call of duty at its core.
Isn't it doing great now? I get instant matchups all day. Might want to note that its on the ps4.
>>378699765
it has no ranking, it just dumps the first 12 people it finds into a server slot.
>>378698586
You already only beat other titans by massively outplaying them or catchIng them with their guard down.
New titan deletes your shield as fast as a core with just its gun, and its shields tank your ability.
Also it keeps picking homestead which scorch sucls on.
>>378683541
It's okay, but it gets boring really fast.
Got tired of it after 20 hours, meanwhile it took 250 hours for Siege to start feeling repetitive.
TF2 failed because the first game was ass and it got released between BF and COD.
I still don't know what the hell EA was thinking
>>378683317
Titanfall 1 was better but it needed a campaign.
>>378700887
>how it feels to play scorch.
I love Titanfall, both games, but I never thought it would be as successful as CoD. Sure it could have been released better, and sure it has some imperfections and balance issues, but this goes back to the concept. Space robots just don't have the mass appeal of modern military and casuals don't understand how brilliant and how fun the game is because they don't play at the level needed to really enjoy it. This game is all about being a new experience, refining and combining old mechancis with new school design form multiple styles of FPS (old school arena to golden age cod to mirror's edge to modern hero and some in between). The pilot combat encourages realtime 3D maneuvering and tactics in a way that few other games have before, while the titans demand more careful timing and more focus for long fights than any engagement in CoD. The design is just too unfamiliar and too hardcore. The skill gap between babbys, nubs, tryhards, and savants is so evident from the very beginning that it would scare any normie off. Like Quake, either they play it for hours and still don't understand the basics or they get hammered so hard that they never get a chance to learn.
All of this doesn't -necessarily- make Titanfall a good game, but it makes it a gamers' game. You didn't see casuals picking up Arcana Heart or Total Annihilation when those were relevant. They'd rather Soulcalibur or Age of Empires - both great games, but with more universal aesthetic appeal and not nearly as intimidating.

it's funny that most of that wasn't an issue in tf1, it was easier to get into, gid gud and you could even enjoy matches that were a stomp.
numbers dropped because the launch version was a buggy mess and people wanted "content" (aka grind to unlock shit you'll never use anyway). tf1 after update8/9 was a great game.
then respawn drops their iq below 50 and decided to make cod with "hero" titans to get that overwatch audience and when people complained wtf this mess they called the sequel to tf1 was they scrambled to retool it into the abomination you have today by making almost every other aspect worse and going completely against their tf1 design philosophies. to add insult to injury they released with fucking LESS content than tf1 had at launch, never mind U9, after people told them since tf1's launch "we just want tf1 with more content"

Let's be fucking real mate, he played the game for 2 hours in multi and has never encountered a team of ace operators. A lot of people treat titans as some kill streak you get where you're meant to charge into enemy lines and get your "free points".
You fucking run to your team mates titans or play defensively until they titanfall and go into ace operator mode. These plebs won't ever make it that far though
>>378704356
EA is actually by far the best PC gaming publisher out there. It's no contest really.
>>378706953

With how well the game reviewed, EA will probably not be so stupid if a third game happens.
The bigger problem is that it was released right between CoD and Battlefield. That was basically suicide
>>378709362
except they are more squishy than tf1 titans

>>378712474

>Server browser, arcade game modes, 1v1, 3v3, 3 new heroes added within the first year, what is it 6 new maps now?
yeah, because titanfall totally didn't have any content released after launch (they also totally didn't make the 9 dlc maps free for their anniversary). also nice coop mode there mate.
you blizzfags are hilarious. don't you have some crates to grind?
