Titanfall 2 coming for Call of Duty's neck "Retweet to pay respect"
- Thread starter Ashtar
- Start date
Ok? because sales is all that matter to some people.
I'm looking forward to when Titanfall 2 high level gameplay makes COD high level play look like it's on training wheels.

It's all in good fun. Don't see why people get so bent out of shape over this stuff.
they did that in the 80s and it actually worked.

Indeed it does but IW also comes with something rather special, now I'm not saying it will boost sales by a huge number but it won't bomb as hard as most people believe/want it too.

They are using the created joke about that CoD moment. But I really don't see nor ever got why it started. The game basically asks you to initiate the action. The way it does that is by pressing a button. You think it would be 'better' to shake the controller or something? I don't get the problem. Even Conan made a jab on it, but I'm thinking it was also riding on the fad.

I can't believe I still see people quoteing this bullshit
Well it's official they sold at least 7million copies. So you're really mad that someone quotes 10 million? That 3 really burns you eh?
I know it's late but FTFY
Because it's an absurd example of both the industry's love affair with glaring button prompts and the sometimes laughable seriousness of modern military shooters. "Press F to pay respects" sounds like a parody of CoD instead of something you'd actually find in it.
Those and a Battlefield game. It's lucky that Destiny 2 isn't out this year as well.

For the millionth time, it's hilarious and meme-worthy because selling a sombre moment through just a button press makes it come across as trivialising to pay respect when it could probably wouldn't get any flack if it was just a cutscene. It's as silly as "Press X to jump in mass grave" or "Press X to question existence" among other ridiculous simplifications.

Don't post as if you know what you are talking or as fact than
Maybe they should focus the tweet towards the other EA shooter that will likely gut their sales, and ensure they underperform. No idea why they didn't delay until next year.
Also, I'm not seeing how the FPS genre is stale. Maybe a point last gen when every other game wanted to be Gears or CoD...but this gen has been far more varied. Shooters discovered interesting movement options, verticality, and less set-piece moment level design again.

Britany spears sold millions of albums, so what does that matter?
