Closest thing to playing the PS4 version hehe

G20WLY3728d ago

This is cool, though. I love the DS4 and will be playing Titanfall on my mate's PC (it's better than mine), so at least now I'll be able to pick up and play without worrying about the controls.

Signed: PC noob that's rubbish with KB/M! :)

DarthZoolu3728d ago

Why would you play with a DS4 when you can play with an Xbox 360 controller thats better. Or an Xbox One controller thats still better than a DS

G20WLY3727d ago

^Because I like the DS4 more, of course - what an odd question! lol

gamer78043728d ago (Edited 3728d ago )

After a DS4 you just need a good web camera, 40$, then a game capture card 150$~ and your set to stream on twitch!

ninjahunter3728d ago

Actually, thanks to nvidia shadowplay you dont need a capture card. Your graphics card will record, compress and stream to twitch on the fly with next to no performance impact, free of charge!

@ninjahunter

oh great, i'll just buy a new video card for 150 then! thanks! (or does it work on a gtx 660?)

ninjahunter3726d ago

Officially is supported by the 650 and up, although I believe it can be forced on on any 6xx series card and up.

gamer78043726d ago

i got it to work, but only 2 of my games actually work with it :( I did find this thing called open broadcaster that seems to work although requires a decent amount of fiddling and setup after an hour i had it working, it works with any game.

LOL! For a PS4 gamer who wants to play this overhyped game then this is clutching at straws!

-But at least the Dualshock 4 is really comfortable controller and it came out the gate with optimised non-broken controls! ;)

Can't wait for future articles from this author:

"How to play ET on your 2600 with your Xbox One controller"
"How to play Duke Nukem Forever with your feet"
"How to play Daikatana with mind control"
...

"how to play with yourself while playing with yourself"

annus3728d ago

If you took the time to look at the article for even 5 seconds you would notice that it isn't simply 'plug in and play' he uses software to emulate a 360 controller, which isn't common knowledge to everyone who wishes to try it.

SirBradders3728d ago

That's probably why he made the article to let people know how to.

pwobrien3728d ago

i plan on doing this with my boot camped macbook pro. Didn't have the time to try it when the beta was out so hopefully it works well

batbatz3728d ago

should work fine, much better than the Xbox one, not saying much mind you

"How to play TItanfall with your PS4 controller on your PC"

Who the hell would prefer playing Titanfall on the PC with a controller instead of a KB/Mouse?

... unless you have your PC rigged to a TV, then it probably makes more sense ;)

kiz26943728d ago

You say that but i played the beta on PC with a DS4 and was on top of the leader boards nearly every single time.

zerogotit3728d ago

You should get titanfall for the ps4 broo

life283728d ago

because you had auto-aim? Who the fuck would play PC version of multiplayer with controller instead mouse.

xPhearR3dx3728d ago

Me. I spent a lot of time and money on my gaming rig (close to $2000) but I'm not a big fan of keyboard/mouse. I'll use it if I have to, but if there's a controller option, I take advantage of it. I love PC gaming, but I've spent most of my gaming life with a controller so it's my comfort zone. I do better with it and can play just fine against people using M/K.

I played the beta with my PS4 controller. Plus, I do have my PC connected to my TV :)

kiz26943728d ago

Completely agree, I have just made the transition from Console to PC and i am finding it difficult to 100% adjust to K/M, if theres a controller option then i will use a controller.

GenericNameHere3728d ago

Why don't you just call it "Dualshock 4" instead of "Playstation 4 game-pad"? Faster to write.

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.

MadLad619d ago

Lol

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

Venoxn4g619d ago (Edited 619d ago )

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

gurp19d 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."

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.

littletad900d 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.

Ethereal898d 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.
