Multiplat Titanfall 2

[KissKiss]

The movement felt similar to me but would agree with the comment that the titan drop rate was well down. All the game modes felt more like pilot versus pilot until half way through when you'd get one dump of all the titans at a similar time

Agree with above, game felt more clunky then the original. Titan's take too long to enter the fight

 

[sacka]

I reckon half the problem with it feeling slower is to do with the maps, you can't string together wall runs and there doesn't seem to be any flow to them.

It also seemed as though I was getting killed a lot quicker. No point using acrobatics and wall runs to distract or get away when you are killed almost immediately.

Gunplay is good, movement feels like a huge step down from BLOPS 3, and the menu's give me a 0% clue of what is actually going on

Don't think the menus could get any simpler, maybe a box of crayons and a piece of paper is more your style.

Logical menu design is my style

Increased the speed for Titan and player movement. Feels a lot more fluid.

New maps ok.

2nd test was better but it still didnt feel like Titanfall to me. No buy.

Ah well, I still get another 10 hours trial through EA Access and if the game bombs as i expect it to, I'll get it for free through there by mid next year anyway.

 

[KissKiss]

Yeah it was ok but the maps werent that great and I dont really like the red outline that much. You just spot everyone too easily

Anyway here is Polygon's 'review preview'. ( This rubbish is getting out of hand).

Not particularly positive.

No hype on this? Getting decent reviews. Seems like the gameplay is spot on, fans of old school shooters should have a blast.

Horrible timing I think. I loved the first one and was keen on this but BF1 is awesome and I won't be stopping any time soon.

 

[Mister Carlton]

In between BF1 and COD4. Always destined to fail.

 

[mickelboy182]

Still, looks to be a better game than both.

 

[Spirit Level]

This should be releasing in March next year

 

[The Big Sauce]

I'll probably pick it up on Friday. Game looks a lot better than new COD and I have more faith in Respawn than the ghost of Infinity Ward.

Been plenty of dead months this year. Why did EA think it would be smart to put it up against their other more successful property?

MoH: Allied Assault, CoD 1, CoD 2, CoD 4/MW 1 & 2, Titanfall, and also having a hand in BF3 is a pretty neat CV for Vince Zampella and Jason West which is why I have no doubt Titanfall 2 is going to be good. Only problem is the timing. BF1 is my favourite shooter since CoD1 and as my mates are all playing it will be hard to put down. Good chance I'll grab this within a week but I might just wait and see how many others do as the first Titanfall proved it is nothing without a good player base.

The advert that mentions there will be no season pass.. does that mean the DLC will be free?

I haven't taken a lot of notice of this but I'm sure they have said all dlc maps and game modes will be free so they don't break up the community like the first game.
So reading between the lines EA are going to put all weapons as dlc lol.

Giant Bomb gave this 5 stars (out of 5).

This looks very good, feedback all positive so far too.
