Titanfall Maps, Monsters and Story Details to Blow Your Mind

IGN writes, "We've managed to get The Art of Titanfall book ahead of its release on February 25 and, in doing so, uncovered a range of new details on the weapons, maps, story and even the monsters of Titanfall."

IF they managed to keep animals on certain maps under wraps for so long I would be impressed. I doubt it though, probably just part of the lore.

LAWSON723743d ago (Edited 3743d ago )

Well I dont think they have shown the majority of the maps so it is possible. If they actually have managed to keep this hidden this long that is damn impressive.

I could see them working on the map but guess we will have to wait and see. I doubt it though it seems like a hell of thing to get people hyped but then again the game is already hyped enough

JokesOnYou3743d ago (Edited 3743d ago )

hmmm, very interesting...just the beta alone with only 2 maps has already been receiving massive praise all over the gaming community so just imagine 15 more maps(alot of diversity in locations will add tons of replayability), plus these new weapons+vehicles for burn cards???, new Titans and if Respawn has some huge surprises when Titanfall launches(creatures perhaps? but honestly I think that is just background lore, plus since its never ever mentioned before it seems unlikely to me). Still I'm sure Respawn has some kind of nice feature up their sleeve....Damm this is going to be a helluva game.

hellzsupernova3743d ago

What , they have said they are interactive!

This was a real shock and a rather cool feature

Khimarhi3743d ago

This is what the article says

... some of the creatures "will walk or fly around levels harmlessly until people interfere. Others will attack when you just stare at them...

Kornholic3743d ago

I've been playing Titanfall beta on pc for approximately 3 hours now and I'm enjoying it very much. Going to be a day one purchase for me on pc.

Team_Litt3743d ago

Sweet, but which platform will you buy it on?

It seems like Respawn aren't making the typical online shooter with Titanfall

curtis923743d ago

IGN:

titanfall... "blow your mind!"

the order: "Cause for worrying!"

hrrmm

Nero13143743d ago (Edited 3743d ago )

It's ready at dawn first game on a console right ?

Mr Logic3743d ago (Edited 3743d ago )

It's respawn entertainment first game period right ?

Edit: What's with the disagrees? I'm not bashing Titanfall or praising the order just stating a fact.

PhantomT14123743d ago

@Mr Logic

Most of Respawn's staffs are ex-Infinity Ward devs so it's not like it's really their first game.

LAWSON723743d ago (Edited 3743d ago )

@MrLogic

Respawn is made up of a very talented bunch with the majority of them coming from IW who made the extremely successful Modern Warfare series (1 and 2 not sure about 3)

I honestly dont see Ready At Dawn as new or worrying they made some good GoW games (I hear Ghost of Sparta is better than Chains of Olympus sadly I have not played them yet) as well as Daxter, which is arguably one of the best games on the PSP IMO. Oh and they are made up of devs from ND and Blizzard. Though it is correct other than Okami on Wii and ports of GoW they dont have much console experience.

Mr Logic3742d ago (Edited 3742d ago )

@ Phantom and Lawson

I am aware who Respawn is and where there staff comes from. Fact is that "Respawn" has not made a game. That is not debatable.

And the Logic you guys use is that it isn't really their first game however RaD are made up of ex ND and Blizzard like Lawson72 said so it is not like they do not have console experience.

Not to mention I find that argument very pointless. Sure Rad have worked mainly on PSP, but why should that matter. It's basically a slightly less powerful PS2. It's an analog, shoulder buttons, face buttons, d-pad. If anything this just opens up more possibilities and I like it when devs succeed.

Personally I don't own either PS4 or XOne and I don't generally like shooters. I was simply commenting.

Edit: And Lawson I played Daxter and Chains of Olympus back in the day and enjoyed them both very much. I later played Ghost of Sparta as part of the PS3 Origins collection and I would have to say it is better. I might dare say it is my favorite GoW game. I'm glad Sony is letting them stretch their legs. They seem like some talented guys and gals.

One game is nearly released so should run buttery smooth and be fantastic, the other is a small segment of a game that is being release in the next say 8 months, one has issues running at the moment, they are not being unbiased, just voicing their concerns over a game that they chose to show that didn't perform how it should.

I'm sure ready at dawn will nail down the frame rate.

And ready at dawn made the god of war psp games and finished daxter

Blastoise3743d ago

Titanfall just got a lot cooler

blackmanone3743d ago

This info will blow my mind? Titanfall looks like a good game but anyone who stays on the hype wagon this long is going to be disappointed when they realize its just another online shooter.

Neckbear3743d ago

I played it and it's much more than just another online shooter. With this and Strike Vector shooters are saved.

BX813743d ago

Umm no, I disagree with it being just the same as the rest.

Dragonborn3123743d ago

Seriously people who think the hype isn't real are sony fanboys or just major skeptics. I played it all weekend and so did my friends and it is incredible. Most fun I have had in an online shooter in a really really long time. I love the mobility, the verticality, and the interaction and balance between the pilots and the titans. Such an awesome game March 11th can't come soon enough. If you don't have a gaming pc and don't have the cash to get then I highly recommend getting an X1 for Titanfall. Such an awesome game.

Silly Mammo3743d ago

Or play it on their 360. And you really don't need a great PC. I maxed out the settings on my mid-range PC and I'm getting 30-40fps.

blackmanone3743d ago

Ah yes the "anyone who doesn't agree with me is a fanboy" argument.

Hassassin3742d ago

I'm a major skeptic... guess I'll try it sometime to see for myself :)

Dragonborn3123742d ago

I should clarify. The game is incredible; the press has praised it, anybody who has played it for that matter has praised it. So that is why when I say that people who are saying it is "bad" or do not think it is special and is just a bland FPS must be fanboys or just major skeptics. I just don't understand how with all the positivity and praise around the game, people can still be labelling it as another bland FPS. Titanfall is special, and if you don't believe me, then just ask anybody else who has played it. :)

Hype wagon.

If the people who played the BETA and still are excited AFTER playing it. How can they be dissaponted with a FULL release in a few weeks?

Me myself...I was excited based off videos and from people who played it.

I played the BETA and after 1-3 games I was not hyped....
....BUT......once I put some more time into the game and understood what Respawn was going for....I started to embrace it more.

Me im not the most observant person so I watched others play (twitch, youtube) I picked up some tidbits and tricks as far as moving around the map...using titans etc.

I look forward to playing the FULL game March 11th.

And at the same time I can see many many being underwhelmed by the game. Its not for everyone.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad618d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g617d ago (Edited 617d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

gurp18d ago

I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."

Respawn Entertainment is Discontinuing Sales of Original Titanfall

Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.

Ethereal899d ago

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

littletad898d ago

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

Ethereal896d ago

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
