[XB1] TitanFall

[SethMode]

I think we have seen that developers use the fallback of the vast majority of consumers having broadband at their homes as a stop gap to keep to their published launch dates. If this were 5 years ago, the game would have just been pushed out a week or 2. Now they get the game to a certain point, it is time to make it gold and send off for replication and distribution to keep that launch date the corporate people mandated. It gives them a couple of precious weeks to make last minute bug fixes and package them as a day 1 update.

The best part of all of that, is that a lot (maybe even the majority?) of games STILL come out with a litany of bugs (and some games still come out just straight up broken - BF4 anyone?).

I guess that it's a good thing, because some of these games would likely be unplayable if they didn't have that day 1 patch.

Received an email from EA earlier, Titanfall should be here in the morning before 10:30AM central. I will be streaming the game on our Twitch channel as soon as the embargo lifts around 11AM central provided the game is delivered on time.

I am going bone just so i have something else to play on that system. Also i have more friends on live vs origin.

Also picking this up on Tuesday. I have been swapping between BF4 and COD: Ghosts for online play. Will probably put down BF4 for a little bit and play COD & TitanFall as my online shooters.

Still going to finish the BF4 campaign though.

That's what I'm thinking as well. I only own forza for the bone and need another game

It has arrived! We will be live streaming on our Twitch channel starting at 11AM central and will also be giving away a copy of the game on Twitter. Stay tuned for details-

My stepson downloaded it 3 days ago. Activates at midnight.

I'm guessing you're in on the upgrade from BB.

See you fools online tomorrow!

 

[riley420]

Yeah, so, I'm pretty stoked.

I'll be picking this up on my way home from dropping my kids off at school, then I have almost 7 hours of staring at my TV.

We should definitely get a game together tomorrow sometime.

So the only non-positive review for the game so far has been from The Globe and Mail in Toronto because the game doesn't have both single player and multiplayer. Pretty ridiculous unless they would hold every game to that same expectation, which they don't. They gave it a 70/100 because of that despite giving games like Skyrim a 95/100 and most recently even gave Thief a glaring review. Sounds like a hater more than anything else.

I'm getting this for Xbone, but I won't be on until the night sometime as i have to watch the NEC championship. I kind of suck at FPSers but I enjoy them.
