Titanfall 2 coming for Call of Duty's neck "Retweet to pay respect"
- Thread starter Ashtar
- Start date
Respawn devs should preferably keep their head down and focus on delivering a great game.
Trying to ruffle COD with tweets is kind of embarrassing really, especially when it will be crushed sales wise no matter what.
Just like the Battleborn "come at me bro" Overwatch tweet is hilarious in hindsight.

Seriously, the devs spent what like 6 months coming up with that tweet when they could have been making the game wtf respawn get it together.
I worded that terribly my bad.
Just meant that the devs should focus on making a great game and the marketing guys should communicate that and not bother poking the 600lb COD gorilla.
There's no benefit to doing this.

Reminds me of this:
This actucally made me lol.
underrated first post
It made some people smile.
Which is a bit odd since the complaints in the tech test were that the game played more like cod than tf. Guess you would have bought blops3 if you had tried the beta
I chuckled too but it was combined with an eye roll.

PS4 just like every other game in terms of sheer numbers. It's a shooter and it started on Xbox so it will be solid there too. Worst on PC just like Call Of Duty.

Kinda ironic that a lot of people will probably be choosing CoD this year over Titanfall to get COD4 again.
If IW didn't have COD4 I probably would get TF2 instead, but COD4 always wins.

10 million players isn't 10 million sold.

I find It funny that the reason cod will murder respawn this year Is due in large part to the game respawn made 10 years ago.
Without MWR cod would still sell boatloads, but having the remaster will also add to it.

After seeing the Battlefield 1 single player trailer last night I can't muster up excitement for Titanfall or CoD. I'm so burned out on all of the future shit.

After playing titanfall one I can never go back to call a duty. I feel the speed of titanfall just makes that game.

Does it? I thought the single-player stuff looks pretty cool. That being said, I watched some Titanfall 2 gameplay earlier and that looks sweet too. I don't think we've seen any proper campaign stuff from BF1, have we? Given DICE's last two efforts I'd say that's way, way down my list of expectations.
Reminds me of this:
Ha ha; that's genuinely great!
No, they celebrated 10 million somethings. And you can bet that if it were 10 million sales they would have specified that.

I thought that until I played the Alpha. Never had an alpha/beta turn me off a game so much.

Does Blops 3 have mechs? I'm just going after what interests me, and CoD dropped off my radar after Blops 2 (didn't enjoy the campaign or multiplayer).
So those complaints about the tech test were either from people who are (overly?) familiar with either CoD or TF1. I'm not married to either, so I guess I'm fortunate in that respect.

Perhaps in Single Player, TF2>COD>>>>BF1.
I suspect in Multiplayer, BF1>COD>TF2.
But I am fairly confident in sales, COD>BF1>>>>TF2.

So I take it Titanfall 2 pre-orders are low.
Yup. Best campaign since MW.

Where else can you get 64 player with tanks and planes and the ability to destroy buildings in a AAA shooter?
Anyways back on topic..each will hopefully do well.

Innovated by removing half if titanfall 1's mechanics?

Will retweeting make the game faster???
Aren't all the "mechanics" still there?
Also, there is a full campaign now, which is getting very good previews

Didn't they add most of that stuff back in after the feedback from the first beta?
edit:
this too
Yeah because at this point there is any real difference between the studios

Damn man you are such an easy sell. I bet if they started flinging Cool Ranch Doritos around on their Twitter you'd buy two copies.
For me it had the exact opposite... Linking with an "automatic youtube sub"link, is a horrible practice, even if the annoyance is minor.
pretty sure more people played the campaign on xbox than on pc
What mechanics did they remove? I know some numbers were tweaked to the game's detriment but I can't think of anything significant being outright removed. Maybe Titan Shields but that was just replaced with another mechanic.

Weren't the numerous threads we had filled with disappointment because it was more like cod tho?

People were prejuding the hell out of the game based on 2 to 3 maps in a technical test.
The speed was slowed down for the first weekend but IIRC it was mainly wall running speed cap on the max run speed. They reverted it back to original TF1 values though.
There was also a lot of misinformation being spread, such as someone claiming you needed to killstreak to get a titan whereas that was not only false as you earned titan progress doing objectives, it wasn't a score streak either as progress carried over past death. People complained that you couldn't literally sit around doing nothing and gain a titan, thus they added gradual progression towards titans so you can earn a titan while afk the entire match.
I think now that they've shown off more maps, more customization, and such, opinion has gradually shifted to a more positive note.

It's hard to go along with this when the game is going to get absolutely annihilated by Cod and BF1.
