YESSSS. Its gonna be a bitch to invest lots of time in both shooters at the same time but YESSSSS.
People called it "Call of Duty with mechs", but the out-of-mech play was the best part.
The mechs were pretty sweet, too. Love Titanfall so much.
I'd prefer it if it didn't have mechs tbh. Hardly ever used mine. Just let it tag along.

That's interesting. I feel the exact opposite. I dont think the 10-20 year olds (made up age bracket i know) who havent grown up on WWI/WWII shooters will want fuck'all to do with them. "Why cant i double jump? Why is there no wall run?" "What is this piece of shit wooden gun?" I really think the times have changed as far as mainstream FPS goes and we've progressed to augmented mobility and multi-function weapons and such. I can't see a way back (for CoD or BF or the big FPS franchises) to the old games with realistic mobility and simple firearms etc. I really cant.

Probably won't be getting it, as chances of splitscreen are slim and I don't have time for multiplayer shooters that don't allow at least 2 players splitscreen online.
or it'll ship in a much better state than Titanfall 1 did and some of the hardcore fans of the original game will cry "fanboys" without recognizing that the improvements that were made were the cause of the better reception rather than console exclusivity.
or it'll ship in a similar state to the first game did and people will treat it similarly to the first one.

Titanfall made me jump on the X1 train early, loved what it offered. Probably gonna pick up the PS4 version this time around though, I'm super excited to see what they've been working on. COD4:MW campaign for mechs please!!!

Titanfall was the only FPS game in the last few years that actually felt fresh to me. I will probably buy a sequel, especially now that I'll have a new machine to play it on.

Why would EA release both of these in the same quarter? =/

Here's to hoping Titanfall still uses Azure. While I'm at it, here's to hoping Respawn convinced DICE to use Azure as well; or at least talked to them about server infrastructure and netcode.

I'm sure most will choose IW's CoD.

Wat... why
The servers used for Battlefield are fine and more reliable than the Azure stuff. I have a better connection etc with the Battlefield games than a games that use azure.
Dice should convince Respawn to use Frostbite. If they still use Source. Oh man...
Titanfall DLC is probably going to be free. Titanfall 1 made the DLC free and Vince Zampella said they were looking into ideas to keep it free for the sequel.

Titanfall and Halo 5 are the best online games I've ever played in terms of server stability and simulating a LAN experience. Battlefield 4 was unplayable by my standards 9 months after it came out. Never tried it after that. If they made it better that's great, but Azure is still far preferable.
Sounds bad. Why would you wish for that?

IW CoD this year, no chance I pick that up so will get Battlefield5 and Titanfall 2.
I enjoyed Titanfall but it was just a little too shallow for me.

Who said anything about Xbox only? That means nothing.
Titanfall 2 will outsell Gears 4 and by a wide margin

Depending on whether BF5 is actually BF5 or some alternate reality WWI weirdness, I could see Titanfall 2 in September, then BF5 in November. If this new BF is some spinoff, then Titanfall 2 in November makes more sense.

Release the Titanfall the same day as the new CoD

Because you know Titanfall 2 is coming on Xbox right? And most Xbox users given a choice between them will opt for Gears.

My statement was that Titanfall will outsell Gears easily. Which it will, I never mentioned anything about only *on the Xbox One All in One Entertainment System
Or do you think that Gears 4 will manage to outsell Titanfall across all platforms?

I don't see a problem with that. If they want Titanfall to become a juggernaut in sales, it has to get the time before Christmas . BF5 could easily get October, while Titanfall gets November/December. Both could enjoy the sales if they are a month apart.

Maybe source 2
Everyone is secretly in love with the game you like, if they claim otherwise then it's just jealousy.

Loved Titanfall even though its content was on the light side. Hopefully they fix that.
Battlefield 5 is an instant buy especially if it's set in WWI. BF4 was too good.

Has any game been released on source 2 yet? I know DOTA was getting an update with it.
