Yeah but for a game with no single player, defense should have shipped with the game
Hell, when you went through 'training' the last part (which was a defensive horde mode) was probably my favorite part of the game
Everyone says the game is trash because it doesnt have "enough content" yet those same people complain about "Bloat" in games and say that they have to many weapons that are the same, to many gimmicks, etc. Titanfall is all about the gameplay just like the Halo, Quake, Doom, Tribes, CS, etc. You don't see people lamenting that CS only has a few weapons now do you? That's because the gameplay is fucking good.
Respawn made the game with 54 employees (standard dev team has 200+ people), under constant stress from the Activision lawsuit, and literally ran out out money halfway through development, and still ended up creating a game that sold millions. They had to scrap a lot of things to even get the game shipped. If theyd had more money and less pressure from activision theyd have had a lot more modes and even a single player but they had to scrap it.

Respawn has added a lot of free content to the game. Black market, emblems, new game modes, new burn card, titan burn cards, Titan OSs, custom slots, etc stuff devs usually add in expansions and map packs to make people want to buy them. They just gave a huge fucking update for free, again.
I don't get it, why do people act like Titanfall is the first game to sell well and lose players. Why do they keep bringing it up like it matters. This is the third topic I've seen on this and the conversation is always the same. Why does it matter? Why does it bother people so much and why do people ONLY focus on this game?
Play the game or don't. End of story.
I get what you're saying... but "Nobody's playing Chromehounds!" would be pretty accurate. Not the best comparison.
It is though, because I'm pointing out that it's pointless to point out the population. It is what is. Play the game or don't.
It's pointless to say Chromehounds is active because it isn't, making a thread about it won't change it being dead. Making a thread about Titanfall being "dead" (when it isn't) AGAIN is pointless because it won't change anything. It's just irritating to see everywhere. They focus on everything BUT the gameplay in the game. You'd think the game shipped as a fanboywar/epenis measuring contest rather then an FPS.
