Official Thread Titanfall 2

Actually, I think they have a playlist for that right now? Similar to team deathmatch. I thought they added it like a month or two ago.


I wouldn't know....it's been months since I last loaded that game up.
 
I don't buy that nonsense about making the crap players feel better about themselves. if that's the case, have a mode where you just play against bots, like the training mode in the CoD games.

People play mp games, because they're attracted to playing with, and against other people. Making large maps and 50% of the time you're only seeing bots is bad design choice (in my opinion). also in my opinion, if there were no bots, I think this game would have been more popular than what it is.




Although, I must say, PS owners need not worry about bots, because last I heard, the bot's AI was made possible because of the cloud, so surely, we'll only see bots on XB1 and PC (I kid, for those that are overly sensitive).


The bots are there for atmosphere. They are supposed to give a sense of a larger battle happening.
 
they do have a pilot on polit playlist with 0 bots.nobody played it though
Not surprised. Most people I know liked the bots. Though when the bots got me from behind I would rage :)

So they say, but if they really want to give a sense of a larger battle happening, then have the bots appear to be part of this battle....ala Halo.

My issue isn't so much with how little danger they present. My issue is in their lack of positioning and map intelligence.
 
Ypu've been playin' a different game brah...on the PS4 perhaps
No joke. the more I played it the more angrier I got that all Xbox multiplayer games do not use these servers. Plus it's so nice to know what your actually pinging/ latency is to the datacenter that you're connecting to.

I just used the bots to get points so I could call in my titian faster. A lot of times I would also use them to my advantage to kill pilots too. As soon as I would see my team bots going down around me It would guide me right to the enemy pilots .

well, yeah, that goes hand in hand with what I said regarding them being part of the large battle. I don't need them to really pose a threat.....but for the love of god, don't give the appearance of not posing a threat. Make it look like they're actually participating in this battle. Not just standing around in groups like morons.
 
The first one was a huge waste of money for me. Didn't get my money's worth at all. This one better have a Campaign mode, Tons of maps and guns, Better visuals, More players and more mayhem. The first one got old too fast for me.

So yeah. Personally, not that excited for it. But I'm still hoping I'll get pleasantly surprised.
 
Titanfall never had any lag issues for me on X1. Granted I didn't play a whole lot but did at launch. TF was by far the least laggy game for me over COD, BF, and Halo MCC.

In all those other games, you get into a spot where someone is on the good side of lag and just owns everyone. I honestly never saw that on X1. Of course there's always lag, but it just felt random. Not like some games where you are just doomed to fail because of lag.
 
Since this is the game that got me to buy an XBOX One, I will continue to get this series on the XBOX One. Can't wait. The first game was fun, even though the fun was short-lived due to population drops.
 
Great game and I'm delighted the sequel is going multi platform.

Honestly it wasn't a bad game at all, it just didn't pull me in. Some games just grab you and make you play. Others are just...ok. TF was ok.
 
I was pretty harsh on this game when it launched. I bought it for $12 or whatever a month back and have enjoyed it for what it is. Nothing I would pay full price on but it's decent enough, especially the defend mode.
 
To the people who are complaining about the bots...

I would like to know why you feel they were unnecessary or detrimental to the overall feel of the game. Break it down a little more for me.

My only experience with something like this would be Dota 2, which I still think is pretty different. But those "bots" play a massive impact on the game and the game's better for having them.
 
the bots are sort of like the bots from battlefront, even though i remember the bots on that to be more dangerous somehow? anyway my favorite mode is last titan standing not much people play it but i get into full games most of the time. not sure if TF2 will make it to 2016? zampela said the game is very early still.

The bots play a pretty big/strategic role in the game. They aren't just there to make players feel good about themselves.

They are there so that people can reduce their "Time to Titanfall" when people are camping/hiding. They're pretty dumb for a reason.

"Oh... you guys are hiding? Fine. I'll just get the bots, build up my Titan, and dominate."
 
Got killed by a bot tonight....melee of all things too lol. Nice helter skelter gun fight that I survived :banana:only to be jump kicked by a bot :txbrolleyes:

I really hope they keep the core mechanic the same. Just add to what they have started. More titans. More weapons. More customization. A Co op story mode. Basically take the same game but put a bit more meat on it.

Yep.

Things I think need improving.

1. Bot Environment awareness/intelligence
2. Definitely more weapons/ Titans, and customization of them.
3. Frontier Defense needs to not only be bigger(6 waves is not enough) but needs a bit more strategy added to it.
4. A proper Single player campaign or none at all.
5. More recoil to weapons

That is all I really need.

I think they made a very good foundation with the first game.

I love it when a bot snaps my neck. You BITCH!
 
Only way this game will interest me is if they focus more on Titan gameplay and less on the pilot. Needs to be more of a mech game to be any good and not just feel like another FPS.

They were stupid and could not kill human players. They would just go to a random spot on the map and stand around. Also, anyone who died to a TF bot needs to quit FPS games forever. They could not aim. You could just run around them in a circle and they simply could not hit a moving target.

If they were a little smarter and tougher, they might have worked. Still, they were there because the game was only 6v6 and without bots that would be too few players.

You also couldn't tell the bots from humans until after you killed them. The bots were so easy to kill it was like cheating at solitaire. I play MP gaming to play against human competition, not cannon fodder. Most of my kills would be bots. It just got boring.
