Wanted to drop by and say the launch trailer was pretty rad.

Going by past MP titles, usually public servers go up the Friday before launch. They then have all weekend to make sure things are working well (usually dev, press and family/friends playing) before the launch Tuesday.
Do they reset stats? Friends are getting it Thursday according to a local ma and pa store. Im still debating it myself.

Right?! I don't normally get all "pumped" from game trailers... but, that one did it for me.

Direct2Play preorder complete. Can't wait.

So I'm assuming Direct2Play is the best preorder PC deal going right now?

It's in the same ballpark as all of those kind of sites.
The Mexican proxy thing is the cheapest by far, but I'm not sure how comfortable I am with that method.
Microsoft's Azure servers on all three platforms.

Microsoft's servers I believe.

The hamster running on a wheel powering EA's servers gets to take a break with Titanfall since it's using Microsoft's servers.

Anyone know where to get a good deal on this game for PC? I hear the ROW key prices are falling.

What is a ROW key?

$40ish off the Mexican Origin store.

Ah, I see. Actually, the deals seemed to be better a week or two ago.

Not likely. Once they make it available to the press and such, it's considered live and they won't reset anything.

Got a link? Keeps reverting to the US page for me.
Yea, I missed the Gamefly deal. I can get a ROW key for $44 but I have been hearing buzz that the key prices for the game have been dropping. I don't know any Origin key sellers though, just Steam.

Uuuuhh, so Titanfall will have a season pass after all?

Same, can't wait to play it.
Yep, EA thought we meant ONLINE PASS LOL
Ill probably buy it.
Well... If they tell us how many packs were getting etc.

They misspoke originally and corrected it shortly after. There is no online pass. They later corrected it and said they don't have any information about a season pass, but now it seems like they will.
Considering that I'll be playing this game for a while, I'll most likely get the season pass assuming it's going to provide a good amount of new maps or even modes.

That is expected. They clarified themselves last week when this came up and said it wouldn't;t have an online pass. They said details on a season pass hadn't been announced. This article also confirms a day one patch and that it has already been certified but no further details are given.
Pre-Load available March 7th at 12:00 EST.

So after exporting out a small clip of the game I'd recorded during the beta, a word suddenly popped into my little head.
Dropblocked.
As in, dropping your Titan on some other poor motherfucker who just called in theirs. It's what I was exporting as my clip: some poor sod called in his Titan, and as he ran to it, I called in mine to where his was. He'd just gotten into the cockpit when his time in the Titan was denied. I dropblocked him.
Hey man, I didn't say the word was clever, I just said I thought of it.
Getting antsy for the 11th. It can't come soon enough.

Much. The usual call-in time is, what, between 4 and 5 seconds, yeah? With Warp-in, it's around 2 or 3. Those precious extra seconds mean a lot in a game where people don't pause for long. If I hadn't had that perk active, I'd have just missed the bugger.

It reduces the time it takes the Titan to drop in by like a second or 2. I think I used it for 1 match and then got rid of it. I mistakenly thought it reduced the time it takes to "build" the Titan.

It's my go to perk. Your titan in its bubble is basically area denial while it's waiting for you in the mean time. That and it makes titanfalling other titans that are on guard mode less risky.

I don't know how I'm surviving the week, so far. My hype for this game is ridiculous.
Im playing south park.
Very happy with it.
Holy shit... I cant wait to see the split between who's getting Dark souls 2 and who's getting Titanfall on GAF next week.. Going to be fucking epic.
I hope someone makes a thread asking who's getting what.

In this instance, the PC delay of Dark Souls II is ending up in my favor.

The 11th is going to be a very weird day for me. I'm getting both.

Already bought and paid for (PC). legacyzero on Origin!
I already told myself that I would be building my game design document for my indie project for my week off next week, but forgot Titanfall was out.

I know it's very unlikely, but I kinda ignored it anyway. If it doesn't happen I'm fine, and if it happens I'll probably take a look at it.
