The movement with wallrunning and double jumping is admittedly pretty awesome, feels great to bounce from building to building to get a high vantage point, but that's really the only positive thing I can see from this game. And funnily enough it just serves to detract from the main gimmick as controlling a Titan is so dull in comparison. No player run servers, no modding, that just kills any chance that the community can make something decent out of this stifling mess. And that is such a shame because the potential is there. Looks like CS:GO will remain my go-to FPS for a while to come I think. | ||

It's simple run and gun and doesn't do it very well. | ||

Just got my beta code and I'll give it a shot this weekend. The game is just terrible. I was bored after 2 Matches. The matches are over too fast and the maps are way way too smal. 6v6 is just a joke. And the worst thing in the Game is the Cannon-Fodder AI. The have absoluty no purpose other than make some console-retards feel good for killing them. They could just remove the AI and replace it with humans and make it like 12v12 or 16v16 and the game would be much better with bigger maps. User was banned for this post. | ||

Think about it for a moment. The map size is made for 6v6 Titans. The AI is there to make the map not be empty when your on foot and it does that well enough. The maps with a good amount of buildings also gives you a consideration between going on foot where you can clear buildings or in a titan where you can engage other titans better. | ||

It's terrible what CoD has done to the genre if people honestly think that an FPS can't have depth... Go play some CS:GO or Quake Live. | ||

Also, removing the AI units won't magically make it so they can up the player count. I think everyone being able to have a giant robot at once is the real limiting factor more than AI units. | ||

Just out of curiosity what is "depth" being defined as here... Pretty sure all games have deeper levels and techniques to be developed that you wont find with in 2 hours of playing the game, even relatively initially shallow looking fps games. | ||

It's going to take some time before people figure out everything and how best to use the moment and titans. I going to form my own opinion, rather than assume that the AI controled units are for "counsal kiddies". Also, removing the AI units won't magically make it so they can up the player count. I think everyone being able to have a giant robot at once is the real limiting factor more than AI units. Well it's that design philosophy that probably limits it due to balance fuck ups with too many players. Bots are fine i don't get why now of days games with bots means no no, it's not like it's uneven team stacked with bots, they are like automated turrets etc in games. You remove everyone can be in a titan at one philosophy you turn the game more and more into BF2142, a game i loved btw titan assault was a great game type. But that just makes the game a copy not it's own thing. | ||

6v6 is fine; I have no trouble finding other players and I average like ~15 player kills a match. If you somehow have a hard time, you could play Hardpoint where PvP is inevitable if you do the objective. I think something like 12v12 No Titans would be fine though. They should throw in 12v12 with Titans just to show people how terrible it would be just to get them to shut the fuck up about how terrible they think 6v6 is. | ||

I think they should add a rotating "For Fun" mode that can have silly formats such as 12 v 12 no titans or 12 v 12 all titans etc or 6 v 12 bots etc and just rotate those out every 3 days or a week. I agree. There were few people playing the more eccentric modes of MW3 during the summer after it came out. People stick to Dom, TDM, and Hardcore, with a couple parties of CTF and Demo. Infected seemed to stick, though, if I remember correctly.... On the other hand, they can just sit there and be unused; the people that do want that just form up a party (assuming they have friends online) and select rarely-used mode they enjoy. Also, guys, do remember that this is still only a beta. Nothing's technically final. Stuff can be fixed. Be constructive with Respawn so that your fears may be put to rest.  | ||

I feel pilot play can turn out to be amazing, and it alleready has been fun, but my very very first bad impressions from playing are that killing a person is a bit easy and that there was a lack of places to jump. The latter one is of course very volatile as with only a few games played I don't know the maps at all and just the extent of what a pilot can be capable of, but so far I found myself not discovering as many ways situations to utilize the jet pack on the one map I've played. I also think players should be tankier, killing a player should be a fight, not quite gears of wars style but not CoD either, in my opinion. | ||
