I'm not used to multiplayer-only games. Are 16 maps a lot for a full-priced release?

And what's alpha textures?

It's a hell of a lot of maps. I would expect a hell of a lot of MP maps since that's all they had to work on without an SP campaign to create.

I think he means the textures people saw in the leaked alpha/beta MP footage. Those are final assets and are as good looking as they're bound to get until PC launches.

The textures being used in the alpha version of the game. He's saying those are final and won't be made better before the game goes gold.

They said they reduced the textures to 25% of normal but never said if the assets were final or not.

Ah okay, not as bad as I thought then.

16 maps is great number. Can't wait to try out the beta.

edit: I'm so confused about the alpha asset things... oh well. The game didn't look all that bad to me in terms of graphics so not a big loss for me.
 
Alpha textures? The ones that Giant Bomb said were at like 25% texture res?

Hrm.

Also Cboat and Ntkrnl basically formed an Elite Leak Fighting Force

The 16 maps is all there is to the game. Why are people impressed? Should they ship a MP only game with 6 maps?

Kept my expectations low :p
Its also because the recent multiplayer titles (i usually ignore the single player although not having one would equate for more content obviously) have released at about 12.

16 is a lot for me since i usually do ignore the single player anyway.

Well, Call of Duty always launch with 15-16 maps on disc.

And that's with extra co-op modes and a single player campaign.
 
Well this wednesday has been one to remember WOTY! lol

Boy am I glad there are 16 maps. That's like...unprecedented in this day and age...really quite generous considering we could have received 6 and been fed a shit poor excuse. Thanks Respawn!

Also , lol at the Xbone textures *hugs PC*
 
16 is a lot more then I expected. If player size cannot be changed on PC version, I'd at least like to see higher "ticket count" servers.

So 16 maps with a few more after the DLC rumoured to come out 45 days and another one 120 days after release date? So we're seeing a total of maybe 22-25 maps?
 
People are impressed because mp games usually ship less than 16 maps.

Or games that do ship with a lot of maps have them stretched out to fit different player types and can suffer from it when forced into anything else. I would have loved to have a 10 solid small maps instead of the split between btb and small.

How many maps did BF4 and Ghosts ship with?
Those games have full single player campaigns. There's nothing else to Titanfall but the MP maps. To ship with few maps is to ship a game with no content.
 
Speaking out of your buttocks on the textures. From what I can tell there is no way they will ship like that since they certainly would not be maxing out memory usage.

So how would it look in comparison to the 360 or will it be that version be the same with half the framerate?

Anyway, the game looks next gen enough. If you want better textures then PC version is for you.

Glad I'm getting it on PC, but it would be monumentally embarrassing if those Alpha textures really are the same in the final build. Would look the same as the 360 version.

16 maps sounds like a lot, but the game is multiplayer only.

I wonder if it will end up like CS Source where 90% of the matches are played on one map (like Dust).

Is it safe to infer that TitanFall, a Source engine game, has to use last-gen textures and sub 1080P to achieve 60FPS on Xbox One?
 
Dayummmm CBOAT dropping them bombs

Hey cboat, last we heard the game was running @ 720p, can you confirm or deny that for us pls?!
