A solid game with several good maps but no variety, no meaningful progression and ZERO learning curve. After 2 hours of play i grew completely bored.
This is the closest you can get to mobile gaming: quick drop-in/out sessions where everyone can have their fun and any frustration is being avoided like a plague.

zero learning curve.. lol come back to the game in 2 weeks and say that..

right now obviously the skill gap is minimal since the game is new and everyones a noob. but in a few weeks/monts people will be mastering parkour, titan use and you will be getting destroyed like in any other game by better players

Pc version looks great! Happy with xbox1 version though, a lot of fun. A couple of maps dont seem titan friendly but i dont know my way around them yet so its prob just me. Twitch broadcasting at high quality is great too.

The way it's meant to be played. :) I may have to purchase this game before it goes on sale on steam. So many games so little money. I'm torn between this and Stick of Truth. :(

You can follow your own advice just as well.
Game is built around "Spawn -> Run -> Shot -> Die" as quick as possible. There is NOTHING ELSE. Just different scenery.

Racing is "Start->get to finish line" as quick as possible
Adventure games are "Start->solve puzzle->kill enemies->move to next stage"
etc etc

if you break every game down to its most simplistic state ofcourse its gonna be just another X game

LMFAO yeah you can go away too

The game can have a muted skill curve and more skilled players will still rise to the top. But it's the same "everyone wins," have a cookie for simply spawning excessive reward mentality as Call of Duty. This game has MW2 in its blood. It's pretty telling how massively popular the game is with non-FPS fans and how easy the game is even on the PC with a gamepad.

Part of the reason this game is popular is that it's easy to perform well in it. I thought that was obvious, but then again, you have folks talking up eSports in a game that didn't even ship with private matches... lol

Even the noobs at Polygon get it: http://www.polygon.com/2014/2/14/5411402/titanfall...

its regular shooter with different mechanics that's all, combine that and perk card system is nothing new mate, i think you need take the rose tint glasses off

the game is getting hardly any hate, and if people are just console gaming then you gaming wrong, i own PC gaming rig and ps3 and i still would not pick this game up it has nothing new but bots that shoots, oh and i can jump about..

its good people are enjoying but to say it gets hate from ps4 players is laughable.. there are plenty shooters out there to play, like all games its talked about because it is NEW nothing more, and the way they have ripped it to dry bones to sell all that dlc back is pathetic, that would be the only hate i have for this game

I can assure you that I don't care if the game ever comes to PS4 (especially since I don't have one) :D

Some people (a minority that I include myself in) just don't like the game. It does bring out a lot of platform warriors though, doesn't it?

The game is way too easy because of the AI and how dumb they are, they are XP boosters and easy target to kill.

Though i did like it way more than the shitty Killzone SF MP and BF4.
Everything is insanely fast, its like they sped up the animations for everything (not that i have a problem with that).

But the beta didnt last long for me, after like 1 hour i couldnt force myself to play it, got kind of boring and i quit, and then a few hours later, i played it again and then quit soon after.
Felt like this game is good for small doses of fun, but wont last in long runs, atleast not to me.

Well All I can say is we wont miss those who dont like it online, as if you dont like it. You dont like it.

But GangStarr has a point everygame these days is nearly the same.

Why do we play game... for fun, entertainment, story etc...

So we know you guys dont like the game, point taken.

I don't have this game either but I can gladly say the game does nothing new, though there's nothing out on the market that's quite the same as it. I haven't invested any two hours in it but I already know there's no learning curve so i'll be just as good as everyone else in it, and I like my games with some sort of challenge - multiplayer games never offer a challenge.
I know this game is bad because it has one of the most popular games of last gen in its blood. And it's only been out a couple of hours but I already know its filled with non-fps fans as well as popular with fps fans a like - that's always a sign of a games poor quality. It even plays well with a PC game pad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its just a bad fps game that offers absolutely nothing at all refreshing. I'll stick with Battlefield 4 and Killzone thankyou very much rather than give this a decent chance because i'm a skilled player damnit! I play REAL games.. not ones just for fun!

I played the beta for several hours, thanks.

I think there's a big demographic for this game and its core mechanics are very polished. It's just not for me.

Even people who love this game agree: http://www.polygon.com/2014/2/14/5411402/titanfall...

It is fast paced fps for anyone to pick up and play, have fun but obviously everyone cannot be good. Something like ut, quake games I guess

Well, if the players couldn't perform double jumps and wall runs, it would be another COD, just with 2-legged vehicles. SOme people even play it that way and are successful what I have seen in streams so far.

You have loadouts, abilities, again stupid attachments like silencers, and your killstreak basically is your own titan drop. Even aiming down the side is in too......which is odd, cauz they tried to catch some of the arena flair of the old games but I cant really remember using ADS in quake or UT.
ADS shouldn't be in a fast paced game like this cauz it ruins the fast flow and changes pilot battles more into "first shot wins" situations. But I think a "hardcore" shooter can't generate that much money anymore, like in the old days, so they had to keep many of the mainstream stuff everyone can use and handle present in alomst every other shooter these days. Too bad.

Its a nice game with a nice and well done combination of parcouring and first person shooting, but aside from this, it just another COD. So its hardly anything new or even "innovative".

I have to admit that I liked the BETA, but after two days, it really got boring fast and stopped playing it. The reviews for this game are ridicolous, too. The game is so overhyped and received almost perfect scores everyhwere. even though some of the tests actually criticised essential facts for a MP shooter like similar look & feel of the maps etc.

The game (beta) was fun and reminded me of the golden days of FPS but it got old really fast. Is it worth shelling out for 30 minute game play here and there?

It's gone down the CoD road of throwaway gaming, take your brain out and play which i suppose is casual gaming heaven for a lot of people....

The sum of all fears...game developers are afraid to push gameplay mechanics for fear of backlash from CoD fans and game reviewers...like what happened to Killzone 2.

Its possible that PC gamers might get it for their rigs...but for years even they have been blaming game consoles...but its not really the game consoles fault, its the casual gamer aiming game devs and game reviewers who act like hard games or learning curves are a bad thing.

I can definitely see yearly iterations of this. It looks quite disposable like COD. Not that there is anything wrong with that I suppose. I get drunk and play games like this all night on Saturdays with my cousin in Oregon. He would love this game. Although, the fact that games like this are only fun in small doses means that we end up playing at least 3 or 4 different games through the night. Sometimes more.
