Titanfall launching March 11, 2014 (PC/XB1/360 same date)

Yep, I think when they originally announced it they were talking up the Xbox One version a little bit more and were cagey on their PC version talks but I found a couple more recent articles stating the PC version is getting dedicated servers.


I'll be interested to see what the spec requirements are but will probably pick this up on my Xbox One anyways just because I'll need something to play on it.

I thought during the Giant Bomb E3 after hours show that they said that they would be using Azure for Xbox One but that they would have to rack/allocate their own servers for the PC version. If that's changed, then that's great news!

March is going to be insane on PC, and the timing actually works out perfectly with a week or so separating both Dark Souls 2 and Titanfall releases.

If we get Destiny and GTAV as well during that time frame...

Dark Souls II and Titanfall are going to make March a very good month for my PC.

So I didn't realize this is running on Source Engine?!? I just assumed they were still rockin that idtech...

Well, Source is built on GoldSrc, and GoldSrc is built on the Quake 1 Engine, so it's technically just running on a heavily modified Quake 1 Engine. :p
 
You just described Dedicated Servers. Nothing new here, as I said the advantages are on the ease of use for developers.

6850 is a quality card, far from having any issues running games.

You somehow made me even more pumped for Titanfall :). Am also running a quad 6850 and while it's probable that I will have updated my rig by the time the game launches, it's nice to know I'd be able to run the game on my current rig (even at low settings).

First off, thank you!. I was trying to remember where I had heard that but couldn't place it. It was when they were on that live stream with Giant Bomb.


Here's what I found with just a cursory search:

Special thanks to the mods for banning (even for a day or week) the stupid PS4 drive bys. This has to end it breaks the flow of every Titanfall thread.

From March to June:

GTA5
Titanfall
Dark Souls 2
Destiny

all on PC (probably). Exactly one month for each game.

CRAZINESS.

Now I am kinda glad Dark Souls 2 got delayed for PC, although I will probably cave and buy a console version to play it earlier as well.

Definitely getting this for PC if I can afford it, gonna get shit on hard with M+KB though, but maybe it's time I just commit to the control scheme and learn the hard way. At least it will be a new game.

With the exception of Battlefield I have always played my shooters on console. How was the online for COD PC back when these guys were with Infinity Ward? Did you see a lot of hacking/aim bot kind of stuff or did they manage to keep it clean?

So, wait... what was with the heavy focus on Titanfall for Xbox One, when you don't even need an Xbox One, let alone an Xbox at all in order to play it?

They've said this since it's announcement. Only that it'll have exclusive features on XB1. It's always been XB1 or PC. There's a version for 360 but a different dev.

Mindshare and all that jazz.

Also, let this thread be a lesson to you kids. Port begging is a bannable offense. Pouring some out for the console warriors.
 
Holy shit! March 11th!! I was expecting it to release at the very end of Spring (June).

Looks like i have no choice but to keep my Xbone preorder....or should i say Xboner :p

Oh ok - I admit I haven't paid much attention to this game. From watching E3, I assumed it was an Xbox One exclusive.

Is the cloud processing only for Xbox One or is it on PC and/or 360 as well? I'm assuming yes but I can't recall hearing either way.

Is there a reason why everyone mentioning a possible PS4 version is getting banned? I just read the thread for the first time.

Port begging. Also possibly spreading misinformation. Until an official announcement comes out saying there's a PS4 version in development then there's no PS4 version. Saying you'll "pick it up this Fall" for said console is just misconstruing the truth based on rumors. I'm sure many of these posters are doing it for reasons other than being purely informational as well.

Well well, depending of the quality of the outsourcing, this will be 360 for me or... not at all. Keyboard / mouse is killing my hands so PC is out of the equation, and I will not spend that much (where I live, Xbone will be around $600) for one game.

Damn, dem first few pages

I think I'll pickup the CE at a much later date like every CE that I'm interested in
 
Wow, that's actually way earlier than I would have expected. Will get for PC.

And damn, I thought crap like the Halo 3 Legendary edition was overpriced, but $250? Fuck that.

The best part is this won't be on GFWL lol

Yeah, but it will be on Origin :p and not Steam.

Holy hell, that CE is ridiculous.

Really excited for this, getting it on XB1 but I hope the 360 version turns out alright.

Hyped now...but its still March 2014...damn you games!!!!

Hope a Beta appears or at least some delicious 1080p footage of some new zones and Titans.
 
Now I'm wondering if we're gonna hear about a Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare release date in February, that includes a beta code for Titanfall on Xbox One.

It sure would make sense if EA wanted to ensure Garden Warfare was a big success. ;)

I think I'm going to Digital this one. Can't fucking wait for March 13.

Thank you to the mod who cleaned up the shit on the first few pages.

Wondering if I should hold out for a Saturn version. I'm pretty sure the dual hitachi cpus can handle the Source engine.

Tbh I'm surprised they aren't pushing it with BF4. But using Garden Warfare would work well too.

Wow this looks amazing I might pick up just for that statue I'm going to preorder just in case it sells out. Not getting a XB1 right now think the 360 version will be horrid?
