5 hr campaign. guess i know what i'm doing this weekend
I heard 4 hours. But i heard it's a good campaign. So interested!
as long as they don't change the movement and fluidity. if it's anything like battlefield movement and gunplay then god no don't use frostbite.

Frostbite is only available to EA owned studios, Respawn is independent.
The Star Wars game is using UE4.

I really, really doubt that four-hour thing. Unless you played on easy and just knew where to go. I played on hard and I got lost a few times since the game never holds your hand too much. And every segment/stage, there's something new (puzzle, platforming, etc.).
Maybe five hours on "regular?" FPS bros definitely need to play this on hard.
Maybe EA will let them use it? Not sure how all these agreements work, but basically I just want something that isn't the Source engine. I can't imagine Star Wars is on that.
Unreal Engine 4 would be pretty good too though
Nah, when Titanfall switches from the Source engine to Frostbite, it's gonna play like Dragon Age Inquisition.
"Guys. Titanfall 1 reviews were fake, cause Microsoft. Xbox only games aren't good.
Now that it's on PC/PS4 we getting screwed in reviews."

Wtf??? Hahaha
Reviews looking great. Adding this to the long list of games I don't have time for.
Edited a post on the last page to add this, but part of their deal with EA is that they can leave if they're not liking the relationship anymore and using Frostbite would complicate that. They're keeping themselves from being dependent on EA for their tech.
Brilliant! Hope they use it for future Titanfalls. Gears 4 is the only big AAA game I've played on UE4 and it looks and runs so well.
Makes sense. Does EA or Respawn own the Titanfall brand?
Respawn owns the IP so if their relationship with EA sours, they can take it somewhere else.
I could maybe see them moving to UE4 for TF3, but we'll see.
Respawn.
Kinda the whole reason they ended up with EA
You should read The Final Hours of Titanfall

Zomg looks like I will be standing by for Titanfall!
Loved the first one so this should be awesome, big debate now is do I go PC or PS4
I like using controllers on PC so I'm likely safer on PS4 lol

Good scores. Will look for it cheap sometime next year if they fix the multiplayer.

Any interesting difficulty options to the campaign?
Am looking for info on how harder difficulties play. I assume enemies get more accurate, but do you run into anything like the pinpoint precision grenade spam you get in the COD games on higher difficulties?
And I wish I felt more comfortable with the multiplayer changes. Really seems like a "fixed what wasn't broken" situation. I should be a lot more hyped for this than I am.

What to "fix"? If you mean by going back to fully customized Titans and old rodeo system, it is 99% not happening. Not that I agree with those changes but I've got past that.
It's not a corridor shooter, the play space is large and you have lots of options to each encounter so I doubt bullshit like those will return.

Length doesn't bother me much, I just finished MWR in under 5 hours and its still the best military campaign in a decade. But its still good to know that its not super short.

4 hours? Ugh. First Battlefield's 3-4 hour campaign, now this. EA really seems to hate singleplayer fans.

Serious question...what the fuck is up with Polygon? They always seem to be giving out lower scores than other sites, at least in the review threads I've visited.

Reviews are great!
Question for those who have played it...Is there a "Mile High Club" type of achievement/trophy in this game?

Wow, for Titanfall 2 on Amazon, to get the Prime discount, you have to get the physical version... which only comes with a code and no disk lol. The Prime discount does not work with a digital key... what?

The review reads like a 7 honestly.
Open more review threads maybe? The same reviewer just gave Battlefield 1 and Gears of War 4 9s.
The review perfectly justifies it's reasoning for the score.

It's always been that way afaik. I too am at the mercy of the shipping gods.

Were all the Sony exclusives like Uncharted and Bloodborne paid reviews as well?

That's the case for pretty much all games right? Or have I been missing out on digital discounts?

Batteries, map design, TTK, pilot loadouts, kill streaks vs. burn cards, 3rd person animations, more than a few AI on the map. There are too many good multiplayer games out to waste time on a worse version of Titanfall 1. If they don't fix it why would I buy it?

Is it true for this game only? If so, I have many friends who would buy on Amazon if digital games got a discount...

Anyone know if the shitty red glow all enemy pilots had in the tech tests is gone now or is that still in? I want to say I read that there is a pilot ability or something that uses that but it was on by default in the tests.

Is this game releasing in Japan? I wish we could get some DLC skins that pay homage to Asian mecha like Gundam and Macross.

The negativity of IW definitely seems it could benefit TF. But even BF1s reaction is so overwhelming that its attracting new fans that may have found titanfall more appealing

Oh sweet, it's currently at what I predicted (87) on OpenCritic. From the sounds of it though, there's more 9's inbound, so it'll likely go up (which is awesome!).
I'm curious to see what Giant Bomb will give it. Jeff's reviewing it, right?

No, it's every game. The discount only applies to physical copies. Same goes for Best Buy with GCU.
Pilots now have health bars above them.
Batteries aren't going away. Ttk is the same as titanfall 1. Pilot load outs? What's the problem there? Burn cards sucked ass in titanfall 1 and could break matches from the start. A.i is confirmed for some modes.
From most veterans that have played this recently they All said it's better than the first game.

Isnt this a good way to stop campers though.
