  • Respawn Entertainment's - Titanfall

    So after playing this for 3 days here's some thoughts about the game, I'm only going to mention things I think the game could be improved on, and this is if course all my personal opinion on it.


    - Due to the fast paced gameplay, sniper rifles are pretty much useless. I didn't get to spend too much time with the sniper rifles but I don't like how when you scope in the screen fades to black for a bit, you totally loose your bearings. it also didn't help that I experienced some FPS drop while scoped in, making aiming with a sniper even more hard. On top of that, projectiles from snipers appear to travel much much slower meaning you have to compensate for this and aim ahead of the player trajectory, but since every Pilot jumps around like crazy, hitting a moving target with a sniper is a pain.

    What I would love to have tho since this is such a fast paced game, is a Railgun like Quake 3, (or the sniper from UT) a very accurate 'one shot long reload' weapon that inflicts a lot of damage and it's a one shot kill if head shot.


    - I like how short the rounds are, but because of this, every time I look back at my experience of Titanfall it's more about waitning in lobbies for the timer to go down and loading screens.

    You have to wait 80 seconds, AND wait for the loading screen AND wait for the short cutscene to play then you're playing the game, this is really annoying I wish the game at least could pre load when everyone's just waiting in the lobby? Also, 80 seconds is a long fucking time, at least put a READY button in there (a la L4D) so when everyone's ready, they can start the match, it's really boring.


    - Player readability is a problem in this game. It might be because of the very noisy and busy art style but also because normal Pilots blend in with the Grunts. In CoD what they do is they give characters a very strong rim light around the model, this helps the models stand out from the environment and helps readability at little bit, I think Titanfall could also try this, at the very least.


    - I would love to see a mode where you get head to head encounters like Bomb Defuse in CS, it would really elevate the competitive aspect of the game.

    That sucks man, but always try and see stuff with the bright side, no matter how hard it is, like maybe it's your chance to do something you always wanted to but never really had the drive to or the time?


    You can always use this week to think in advance and do some soul searching, you don't like that job anyway. And fuck man, I know there's responsibilities in life too, there's a baby incoming, etc but life's so short if we don't strive for happiness what is the fucking point.


    PS. Also, once again, grats on the baby! It must feel great to pass on the torch!

  • South Park: The Stick of Truth

    This will be great! Awesome how trey parker and matt stone are making sure this is as good as the show, or even better. That's why they delayed it a few months, to make sure it has their stamp of quality and not just another game that cashes on a TV shows success.

    Is there a way to make it upscale when you select a resolution lower than your native monitor resolution? My monitor here at home has a resolution of 2560* native, and if I put the game running at 1920 it downscales it to a smaller box on screen


    Game runs a little laggy on this old(er) PC, I have a GTX 560ti and I'm unable to maintain a FPS above 40 during combat situations.

    Considering they just bought alll external IP's they could not likely.


    True! Microsoft just bought Gears of War, etc, these rumors are so false it hurts.


    Expect Amazon to become bigger and bigger in the industry in the years to come tho, they really feel this is a powerful industry they do not wanna miss this chance on, and I say bring it.

    Fair enough but excuse me for jumping on anyone who really attempts to justify this game's existence because at this point I regard it with pretty straightforward disgust


    Jesus dude... If you have constructive critics for any of the gameplay mechanics or level design by all means post it here, or.. if you don't like it, don't play it. I'm not sure if I like that attitude towards a game, and I mean ANY game.


    There's nothing wrong on building on other titles / sub-genres successes, specially being that these guys pretty much made CoD what it is. I don't see anyone going like "ohhh Nintendo is making another Mario game, DISGUSTING"

    Here's a whole ten minute video but to be quite honest I find it makes me sleepy


    I find it ridiculously disappointing that Respawn formed as an entirely new studio with the ability to make any game they wanted, and they chose to make Call of Duty + Giant Mechs. That's boring.


    You'll also find it ridiculously disappointing when they sell millions in the first weeks

    Quote from Nerve

    This looks great and I'm sure it will be fun, but I don't see how they're gonna keep it interesting once everyone figures out the best tactics.


    Same way they kept L4D fun? Both sides will learn new tactics as time goes by, when it will reach a point where you're just tired of it and let it go, but by then you'll be spending probably around 100 hours in the game, which is more than your moneys worth.
