Titanfall Beta Access Doesn’t Require a Pre-Order

GR: Vince Zampella of Respawn Entertainment has confirmed that you don't have to pre-order Titanfall in order to get access to the upcoming beta.

Great news as my preorder is at walmart, I can pick it up and be playing by 12:30, gamestop always has long lines. I also love the confidence they are showing, giving everyone access is saying our game is so great once you get a fix, you will be hooked. I'm definitely Preparing For Titanfall.

Gazondaily4495d ago

Great news!

Shows confidence in their game and should yield better results as more people participate.

It should also silence the haters.

TomShoe4495d ago

That's good that it doesn't need a pre-order.

I'm still undecided between "Day 1" and "Wait until it's on sale," so this will help me with my decision.

Eh, the way gamestop does their midnights now they can knock out a line of 200 people in 15 minutes once midnight hits. Plus I like free stuff :)

UncleGermrod4495d ago

great news for me since i am not pre-ordering. well, not so long as i can download it on the xbox store at midnight. I guess i could have just pre-ordered and then cancelled anyways.

Speaking of downloading titles, any word on weather sony or MS will begin to let us "pre-download" titles so that at midnight of launch we can just start playing?

@trufan- You got it wrong. Your not preparing for Titanfall...it's Standby for Titanfall! I can't wait for the beta to test it out.

@Septic- It would be nice if it would silence the haters, but you know it won't.

That's good that it is a free access beta. It would be nice if they could allow all those who preordered the game access to the beta a few days before everyone else.

Seafort4495d ago

Why? You get enough shit for preordering.

Most betas are marketing betas to persuade people who haven't preordered yet to preorder.

Those who have already preordered should be happy with what they get and not ask for extras just because they put money down pre release.

great now pls tell us how to get into beta? i'd go in for both or all 3, 360, XB1 and PC LOL

gamertk4214495d ago

I will download it, as I am planning to do for big games I don't want to trade in. Also, I don't want to have to swap the disc. Wish we could pre-order directly through the Xbox.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad1350d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g1350d ago (Edited 1350d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
