"Titanfall", as the name suggests, is a unique take on the FPS genre involving wall-running, jetpacking, and calling down giant bipedal death machines down from the sky. Developer Respawn's take on the shooter mold is to make it three-dimensional and tune the speed of the gameplay up a few notches, a refreshing twist in a genre so populated with indistinguishable and unimaginative titles you could probably pick at random and be no worse off. "Titanfall" attempts to do away with the mold while keeping enough of the quick gunplay to tempt fans of the Call of Duty and Battlefield franchises. In this, the game succeeds wildly though it is not without some serious faults. This review is for the PC version.
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
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.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
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."
Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.
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.
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.
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.
This is kind of disappointing coming from a website with their credibility. It seems that the reviewer really enjoyed the game with the exception of connection issues that were seemingly entirely on their end. I have never had connection issues with this game, I get into lobbies before I can blink. Perhaps it is because my router is already setup per XBL recommendations.
I think "Plagued with issues" is a gross over exaggeration. I feel it is a very polished title.
