Titanfall, The Next Big Competitive Title?

Titanfall, The Next Big Competitive Title?

Titanfall has had a lot of hype since 2013, it is believed that this title has the potential to be the next big competitive game. Due to it’s developer team background: Respawn Entertainment, who had worked on previous Call Of Duty titles, the community are hyped and hope to see a new competitive title.

What is your thoughts?

I believe that it has potential, however it is only released on PC and Xbox platforms. This could cause a lot of problems as there is a huge market for those who have a Playstation platform, this would cut sales compared to Call Of Duty, but does this even matter?

This game will without a doubt be a hit on MLG.

Neckbear4480d ago

With bot-ridden stages? I doubt it.

Aces174480d ago

If you played it you'd know that the bots are really a non factor.

Bennibop4480d ago

I played it and it was! They were a little to easy to kill

ssj274480d ago

The bots in Titanfall are powered by Azure clouds infrastructure network that M$ acquire. they have the power and speed of one million human players and can read anyones game play style after they play 5 or more games, so it read any move you do, the bots have the edge over you and make the game very competitive. /s ( in the voice of nacho men nexican partner) "it's the fu ture"

lolCHILLbro4480d ago

HAHA its funny how everyone becomes a competitive gamer all of a sudden, and they know exactly what MLG is looking for lol

@ssj27

Ridin Microsoft's cock alright

TomShoe4480d ago (Edited 4480d ago )

A. It's already been confirmed that Titanfall won't be on the competitive circuit. Fwiz, a well-known guy at MLG said so.

B. Competitive probably won't work what with the 24 bots in the game throwing off the balancing. This game is made for pubs and pubs only.

Don't tell me you've been eating that crap they're feeding you!

This game will 100% not be on the MLG Pro Circuit.

ITPython4480d ago

It's 100% guaranteed this game is not going to overtake COD popularity, it won't even come remotely close.

Titanfall will suffer the same fate as the Killzone series has on Playstation. It may be fun, or extremely fun, but it's constant comparison to COD will only harm it and keep it from succeeding. If people want to play COD, they play COD, simple as that. The only thing that can replace COD, is another COD.

Titanfall being hyped as some kind of revolutionary COD killer guarantees it's failure, mark my words.

SaturdayNightBeaver4480d ago (Edited 4480d ago )

looks like MS is paying a lot of money for it to do overtake cod... they also overhyped it so much everyone thinks its the next god of video games... its all PR bullcrap but kids fall on it so hard...

xDHAV0K24x4479d ago

COD's pop is 95% casual (me being one of them)

SaturdayNightBeaver4480d ago

rofl , no doubt.. the most overhyped game of 2014 by far.. why just don't at least we wait for it to come out and actually try the game?

urwifeminder4480d ago

Wow how can this succeed its like pong with mechs. <s

malokevi4480d ago

I'd say it's more like bomberman with jetpacks.

PsylentKiller4480d ago

Bomberman had jet packs and pong was the first game in history to feature mechs.
I haven't played Titanfall but from all the footage I've seen, it looks amazing. The gameplay looks refreshing. I know there is nothing new under the sun but on the xbox consoles, this is a unique experience. The mechs and jet packs and CoD resemblance may have been seen before on MS machines, but the experience seems to be brand new. I hope I'm right.

Chrisgamerguy4480d ago

It will be competitive but not on mlg scale because of the bots

mhunterjr4480d ago

Why? If league of legends can can work on the professional circuit why can't titan fall? It's a similar concept.

ic3fir34480d ago

if you do not know, will be playing modes without bots of course, as well as rank style black ops 2 system.
Titanfall is thought to be a competitive game with skill base, Halo has no competitive playlist, as well as competitive, it will be with titanfall

FITgamer4480d ago

Exactly this isn't LoL, it's a shooter, bots take away from the competitive aspect. I'm sure the game will be fun, but unless there are game modes without bots i doubt it will be MLG worthy.

mhunterjr4480d ago

They aren't bots (bots are meant to replace human players) they are grunts. If you've never played a shooter with grunts, how can you automatically assume that it can't work competitively.

This is a shooter, with MOBA elements.you're are judging it like it's the same as any other shooter.

LightofDarkness4480d ago

There are no bots. There is enemy AI, but bots are meant to emulate human players. These AI do not. We don't call the creeps in DOTA bots, and we won't be calling these grunts bots either.

They need to remove the bots

Tedakin4480d ago (Edited 4480d ago )

Killer Instinct is an Xbox Live Arcade game only and it was just announced for EVO. Just saying.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio18d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing17d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9217d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit17d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing17d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9217d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
