    Never understood the FUT thing at all. Absolutely no sympathy for anyone who puts themselves in a hole playing it

    FUT ?

    He's probably sick and tired of getting his a$$ handed to him by 10 yr olds and spent all his time hiding in corners with a shotgun.

    Meanwhile, 8yrs ago in the BF world,

    You do know there's a forum for the BF circle jerk?
    Wasnt original then either.

    Mean while ,19 years ago in the mechwarrior world,

    Preferred MechWarrior.

    I'm afraid you won't see anything new or original, bar how they implement it. Using the mechs instead of tanks, and using mechs that can pretty much run about parkour style looks like it'll be fun :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,967 ✭✭✭jonerkinsella


    ^^ Yepp. A mix of Mirrors edge and Cod. Runandgun and jump.

    So why all the hype ?.

    Crazy Ivan also ,18yrs ago ;) .

    From what I have read and seen, I reckon the game took some inspiration from Metal Head from 1995 on the 32X

    Can we all just give the dick-boy shenanigans a rest? Yes, you all have very large e-Penis' because you've heard of old games, lets move on.

    What a silly debate.

    Can't wait. I don't care if it's a copy, it looks shiny and fun. I hope they allow modding.

    The 360 version has been delayed by 2 weeks.

    Clever move. Does this mean the 360 version will be more stable on launch though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Haven't heard much of anything about the 360 version. Surprising really as it'll probably be the biggest selling version if the game turns out to be any good.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,400 Mod ✭✭✭✭CatInABox


    Clever move indeed. Not surprised at all to be honest.

    As for not hearing about it on the 360, my guess is that Microsoft is going to pour advertising into this, but with the proviso that the ads should not mention PC or 360 for a few weeks.

    Beta sign up at 6pm PST for anyone interested. Add Vince Zampella on twitter as they'll be announcing the sign up website shortly before it goes live.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,340 ✭✭✭deco nate


    Anyone know how many beta keys they are giving away for xbox one?

    Is there any footage of the 360 version? Really curious bout that one.

    "Thank you for applying to the Titanfall Beta. You will be emailed by EA no later than 11:59 PM PST on Feb 17th if you have been selected to participate. Invite your friends to register by sharing this link on Facebook, Twitter and Google+. "

    Nope. They're pretty much pretending it doesn't exist so people won't know its coming out on that and will buy an Xbox One.

    just to point out, I got there before Vince did!

    "The Titanfall beta is not final code and represents a small slice of the game’s content. Testing the game before release helps us create a better final product for our fans."

    I'm sure everyone knows what a Beta is. If you don't want to ruin your experience I suggest waiting for retail. If you think you can contribute to the game prior to launch signup..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,885 ✭✭✭SherlockWatson


    Using this beta to see if it'll run on my laptop, if it does, and it's somewhat enjoyable, i'll probably purchase it as a lot of people are.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Help & Feedback Category Moderators Posts: 25,517 CMod ✭✭✭✭Spear


    Is the site really badly designed, or is impossible to tell if you've applied or not?

    I'd imagine it's taking a hammering at the moment, but you'll definitely know that you've applied as you have to fill out a form, and then it'll take you to a page afterwards that tells you you'll be notified by the 17th of Feb AFAIR.


    You'll definitely know though.

    It just seems to go in a loop telling me to login, and never getting to the form.

    I got on a couple of seconds after that retweet without issue, try using the PSN or Live sign in.

    I had this, my laptop is ****ed. So using my phone.
    When it states agree to t an c.. Beside it is a box to tick. It took me 3 tries to get it to work, the tick box never even showed up at anytime time before, so if you are trying via a phone, by the t an c on the left hand side you need to tap it. (dirty jokes aside)


  • Registered Users Posts: 593 ✭✭✭SteveDPirate


    I had no problem signing up this morning. Looking forward to this immensely!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,746 ✭✭✭irishmover


    There would have been a lot of traffic shortly after it went up.

    No doubt. I'm sure most of the US were asleep when I was registering so it was completely painless :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,905 ✭✭✭Noxin


    Just curious if anyone got an email after signing up?
    I did it and it said thanks bla bla bla but I assumed I'd get a confirmation email..

    Think you'll get it by/on the 14th if you get in. Registration doesn't guarantee entrance though.

    At least that way you know you did actually sign up.
    But yea they'll let everyone know by 17th if they got in.

    Can't believe in that whole game he only killed 11 people ! lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Big Knox


    It looks fun to be fair in the same kind of way MW2 was. Hopefully get Beta access to give it a go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,998 ✭✭✭✭Cuddlesworth


    What's the criteria for getting a Titan? Is it on a timer, is a perk similar to COD, where you need x number of grunt/pilot kills, is it a combination of both?

    Reading the Eurogamer article it seems to be similar to COD in terms of streaks, but there is no punishment for death other than it takes slightly longer to get the titan.

    I think the first one is base on time but then it's game performance.

    From the game I played last year it was based on performance.

    Jackfrags streaming the PC version now http://www.twitch.tv/jackfrags

    Watching it a while there, he killed 9 bots before getting to kill an actual player :(
    I dont like this bot crap in a multiplayer fps at all,apart from that it looks decent.

    Was literally just watching his first preview youtube vid,not even his own footage:(

    Gonna watch the stream for a bit cheers

    Is anybody really excited yet?
    Previews have not got me too excited,hopefully get into the beta and try it out for myself


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,721 ✭✭✭Otacon


    Was watching the hour long Giantbomb preview and there was an open map where he played Attrition. There were only a few buildings and the rest was open area with some rocks for cover.

    It looked dire, gameplay-wise, there. The EGX demo was a cityscape with buildings and windows. The locomotion allowed you to feel really powerful when you could get from one side of the map to the other in seconds. Here though, it just seemed far too neutured and far more like COD than it ever looked previously. Hopefully, it is just one map like that.
