@EeJLP-

looks like someone never played it. The maps were perfect and the game was really great. Yes the unlockables werent that great, but it was a new ip and titanfall 2 should fix all that.

Great game I still play it from time to time. Here's hoping there's a sequel with more content.

People still think there are "bots" in the multiplayer??

No.

No there isn't.

A bot is a computer controlled character made to take the place of a regular human player. Look the same, have the same abilities, etc...

Titanfall had AI controlled enemies that were completely different from a player character.

Saying Titanfall has bots is the same as saying every MOBA game has bots.

We're not talking about MOBAs are we? We're talking about a supposed competitive multiplayer FPS that has relatively dumb, weak bots that can be used to pad stats or get bonus powerups (your titan) easier. Just because they're like beginner strength bots doesn't make them some completely different category of 'AI controlled characters'. Titanfall has bots. Titanfall has twice as many bots as the maximum player count (12 on each side compared to just 6v6 max player count). Any multiplayer with bots is immediately delegitimized. Titanfall has bots in it's main mode, which in other games would be a competitive mode. Titanfall by default is therefore non-competitive, which in turn makes it worthless and completely uninteresting in my personal opinion and that of gamers who enjoy a real competitive challenge. If I want to play a multiplayer FPS, I want to play against actual people and their true abilities and not have AI or bots affecting the outcome. Other games (like Killzone for example) have bots as an option. In Titanfall they are in the main mode, they are not an option, they make the game non-competitive, and therefore irrelevant to anyone who cares about having a real match against real people instead of phony, stat padded, fake matches with an inflated sense of accomplishment. It's like it's designed for children who don't have any level of maturity to be able to cope with defeat or a losing record (k/d).. everyone gets a participation ribbon.

UnHoly_One:

bit of a reach, but ok, sure...Titanfall didn't have 'bots' by some arbitrary definition...

but it did have pointless fodder for the uninitiated to be proud of killing...

anyway you look at it...the game was far from competitively sound...It was 2014's battlefront; a game so wrapped up in being accessible to lesser skilled players...that for some reason find themselves diving into what used to be a competitive genre...that it was written off as a joke to those who enjoy playing multiplayer shooters and can tolerate even the slightest notion of a learning curve...

seriously...an automatic headshot pistol? The game already had a foot in the grave the day it released. It was the genre's current gen hand holder, which in retrospect isn't surprising considering who developed it...

You're entitled to not like it, that's fine, but they aren't bots.

It's a different kind of game. It's not like every other FPS.

If you don't like it I understand that. It's not for you, that's fine.

But it isn't a regular FPS with bots. It's a different kind of game altogether, and more Moba than you care to admit.

@UnHoly_One

If there is AI in multiplayer and it counts as kills and goes towards your overall score "It's Bots", doesn't matter how you try to define it.

I'm not really talking about my own personal opinion, either...

very few liked it; its diminishing popularity over the course of weeks...fully illustrated that...

and you're kind of going in circles...'more moba than i care to admit'?...not even sure what that means...i'm not admitting, or ignoring, any of that...regardless, i fail to see any sort of 'moba' like attributes to the game anyway, other than some AI controlled 'not-bots' that players can engage in....

Those 'things' were added to multiplayer to give players of any skill level something to shoot at...nothing more...you're acting like it was some deliberate and methodical attempt to siphon off Dota 2 players...I like Dota, and thought Titanfall fell well short of what it could've been...so color me lost...

Kleptic,

Very few liked it and it's popularity diminished in weeks? Really? Not only is that your personal opinion it's also completely unfounded. Game still has a solid fan base. If you don't like the game fine but there's no reason to exaggerate like that.

Best shooter this generation! Instead of focusing on stupid unlocks, it focuses on smooth gameplay.

Really looking forward to Titanfall sequel, and that PS4 owners get to try this gem. Next to Gears of War, and Mass Effect, Titanfall is my favorite!

Apart from my RTS addiction.

This game was highly rated on metacritic by both critics at 86% and a massive 6.4 user score (most games have much lower user satisfaction).

I can see why you don't like it kleptic. But well...yeah.. the 'bots' are minions. You can say the exact same thing about Dotas minions. They are so shit players won't get bored. But....they serve a purpose. The bots in Titanfall do too. This game is competitive. Just not in the same way counterstrike is competitive. Whoever can kill the most titans, players and minions. Wins the game. You can't win just by killing minions. If the enemy team is better..they are better.

Thats all there is too it. The probably with the game was lack of content and nothing else. The smart pistol, is not that good either, in fact if a player spots you and you have a smart pistol you are immediately at a disadvantage. You need time to lock on. The game is fast paced.

As for 'jet pack nonesense'

pff, that is a GREAT FUN aspect of Titanfall. By far the most fluid FPS in some time.

Now. In saying that. I am a counter strike fan myself. I thing CS GO is a great game and I wish more games tried to be that instead of titanfall. However, theres room for both. And I play both

ok, ok, me saying 'no one liked it' was harsh...

but i stand by it being far from only a personal opinion of mine...

It was marketed to be the biggest thing in competitive mp since CoD took off, headed up by its creators...a game that used 'the power of the cloud' to the fullest...and would change the way fans of the genre think of modern multiplayer...

it released and, while yes, it has a 'solid' fan base...it wasn't a 10th of what many expected, and was well under what was promised as far as a water-shed mp experience...popularity was ok on the 360 with its massive install base, and the xbox one having literally nothing else to play at that point but the bugged out BF4...but it was largely skipped on PC...

so yes, people enjoyed it, and some people still play it...but its easy to sit here almost 2 years later and comment about it being a solid title...when at release it was a unanimous 'this is it?' from a huge portion of players looking forward to it...

while i by no means ate up the hype at the time, either...just pointing out the game is the opposite of a sleeper hit...its definitely decent at what it attempts...but its WAY under what the EA/MS PR machine was trumpeting at the time...

I'm only one person and can't speak for all these hypothetical people that didn't like it, but I played Titanfall more, and for longer, than any other multiplayer FPS ever. I loved it.

Just because it wasn't some ultra competitive game that you think belongs in MLG doesn't mean squat to me or most other people. I played it a ton with my friends and we all had a blast.

It's not CoD. It isn't TRYING to be like CoD. It is it's own thing, and it's great.

developers who made call 0f duty can't reeplace call of duty, that's like saying call of duty will replace call of duty.

@elitethinker What? That makes no sense. I said the creators of cod. If you need it simplified. The devs who originally made cod the fps powerhouse it is today, that no longer actually work on cod anymore, but have started a new studio called respawn that created the Titanfall Ip. And that Ip has the CHANCE to replace cod as the dominant shooter on consoles. Did i go slow enough that time.

Even though Titanfall was very limited in content, it still set trends for future FPS games. The double jump and verticality was soon adopted by CoD (funny how the the original creators of CoD are still influencing it in some way), Halo 5, and even the new Doom has the double jump. Not to say Titanfall was the first to do it but it certainly made it a staple into this generation's shooters.

Even with the limited content that Titanfall offers, it's still one of the best FPS experiences I've had in a long time. It's fresh and has a lot of potential with future installments. I'm curious to see how legit competitive play would work in the game too.

Titanfall 2 could be the next CoD in terms of sheer popularity and addictive nature. I know I'll be purchasing it no matter what.

umm what? COD2 is still the best WW2 single player campaign in an FPS that I've played.

@reallynow and your entitled to your opinion. The 1srt 2 MW campaigns were my favorite. But you miss the point. The point is it usually takes a few entries to really get innovation down and make the series stand out. If you ask people what the best COD games are the majority will go with mw2 or black ops both later entries into the respected devs cod series.

You're just gonna ignore that Titanfall user score, right?
