10 bucks for this and warcraft... that could make for a crazy amount of value between the two.

 

[OnionPowder]

Hardly. When I can be matchmade into different servers on other titles versus Titanfalls' constant 5+ times it puts me into the same game I just left on the same mode? Game is dead.

I've never played Titanfall on PC with a search over a minute, and I bought it last month. It's not dead.

Yeaaah, I never have any problems getting into a different active game. I'm not sure why you're having this issue, but it is definitely not the norm.

And likely, with this price drop, it'll be even easier to find an active game with all the new players.

 

[zephervack]

Doesn't origin have it as 50GB after install?

hmm maybe, Im downloading it right now and says its 19.36GB, wouldnt be surprised if thats compressed to hell.

 

[Pejo]

Thanks OP, bit on this, let's see what the fuss was about.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

I see that Crusader: No Remorse is "On the house" (i.e. free). I'll take advantage of that offer, at least.

 

[Khal_B]

I never have problems finding games. In fact, I tend to get games withing 30 seconds or less of searching, so I don't know what all the fuss is about.

Worth it at $5? Most definitely.

 

[Heysoos]

So, anyone? Is the smart pistol still the most prominent weapon on PC? On XB1 I t was rare when I ran into one compared to the PC matches I played during the beta and free access weekend.

 

[OminoMichelin]

waait just a goddamn second, why is it 5$ in the us while it's still 10€ in EU? >.>

 

[Glass Shark]

$5 for access to a dead community

Sad but true. Amazing game, but so few people playing. Hopefully this will inject a bit of new life into things.

 

[CertifiedFP]

So, does this game have enough content to justify a $5 purchase? Because that's one thing I keep hearing, is that it lacks content.

 

[Mupod]

I see that Crusader: No Remorse is "On the house" (i.e. free). I'll take advantage of that offer, at least.

damn I'm kinda impressed they even remember that game exists.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

At this rate, it could be a "On the House" candidate next year.

 

[b0bbyJ03]

for Warfighter, You won't get much farther then an hour before you say F' This.

Damn, I just bought it for the campaign. Is it that bad?

 

[kewlmyc]

Will buy when I get home

Is the PC community still all about the smart pistol though? That's all I saw when I played during the free access weekend a while back.

.....yes. It's one of those "if you can't beat them, join them" things. However, I still prefer the C.A.R.

You probably don't see it a lot on XB1 due to auto aim being a prevalent thing.

 

[bobbychalkers]

I was about to buy it but not at 50GB with my caps...

 

[DryvBy]

Is it really that dead now? That sucks.

 

[zephervack]

I was about to buy it but not at 50GB with my caps...

Its 19GB, at least thats what is downloading right now, will probably be 50GB in your harddrive after decompressing.

 

[denx]

Damn, I just bought it for the campaign. Is it that bad?

Do your research before buying stuff. And yes, the campaign is absolutely terrible.

Is it really that dead now? That sucks.

It's not dead. I have no trouble finding matches in the game, and with the influx of players this sale will bring, it will be even less of a problem.

 

[cakely]

$5?

This seems impossible to pass up on.

Damn if didn't end up buying three different versions of TitanFall. WTF.

 

[Sinatar]

How is Titanfall $5 already while Crysis 3 is still $10. At least with Crysis 3 I'd have some eyecandy to push my new 980 with.

I don't think I've seen a big budget game look more boring then Titanfall though, you gotta be hard pressed to convince me that $5 ain't worth it and they did so with spades.

 

[Lemstar]

Most of the people talking about "lol dead game" are regurgitating hearsay.

I get full matches within 10 seconds of queueing in a playlist with 40 people in my region - even if there aren't that many people playing, it's not like you need more than 12 for a full match. (It just means that it's tougher to dodge really good players.)

Also, PSA since no one seems to know this: matchmaking does not separate players by DLC ownership.

 

[Waaghals]

Never had trouble finding players in the more mainstream playlists.

Coop is also great, and has matchmaking. The game might have been a bit light on content when new, but the price drops and updates now makes it a steal.

 

[outunderthestars]

Dumb question: Could I hold my own in the game while playing with a controller? I just bought my first pc and would love to play, but I don't want to be a complete liability to my team.

 

[SpyGuy239]

goddamn, can't believe I payed full price for this!

 

[Madrugador]

US only? It's $19.99 right now in the Latin American store.

 

[Kade]

Dumb question: Could I hold my own in the game while playing with a controller? I just bought my first pc and would love to play, but I don't want to be a complete liability to my team.

I have friends who play with a controller and they do fine. I think auto aim is enabled for controller users.

What does that mean? Do you get kicked out of a lobby if a DLC map comes up?

There's aim assist when using a controller on PC.

No, DLC maps just won't show up. Supposedly, DLC owners are matched with other DLC owners more frequently to avoid the issue.

 

[Lemstar]

Matchmaking tries to match DLC owners with other DLC owners, but it'll still prioritize getting a full lobby over substantially longer wait times. If not everyone in the match owns a DLC pack, the maps just won't show up in the rotation.

In my personal experience, getting the season pass did not affect the number of matches or the wait times at all, and the DLC maps show up all the time in normal play.

 

[b0bbyJ03]

I usually do but for $5 I can be a little impulsive. Guess I gotta watch out for that

.

Awesome news! Off to buy it!

 

[CMojicaAce]

Seems like a no-brainer for $5. Let's see how it is once I build my PC in December.

 

[b0bbyJ03]

Awesome news! Off to buy it!

I actually fair better with a controller in this game. You'll be happy with it

 

[turcy]

For fucks sake it's not dead.

yeah, it's really not...

it's not CS:GO or LoL levels of crazy community, but it's a solid group of solid people, playing a solid amount of the most solid online fps in a solid decade.

 

[openrob]

aww man, i already bought it on Amazon when it was 10 bucks

Same haha

 

[Krejlooc]

At this price, why not.

 

[ElMexiMerican]

Looks like I'm finally going to get around to playing this game now.

 

[kinggroin]

No LAN play no buy

 

[Krejlooc]

God being a PC gamer rules. Game launched at $59.99 + Xbox Live 7 months ago... now I just got it with better graphics, free online, and for $5.

 

[PerfectConsumer]

I got it and enjoyed the hell out of it, but I favor the controller and would most likely get owned if I did have the opportunity to play with the Keyboard and Mouse folks. Sad but true. I am tempted just to see it with better graphics, but I will pass.

 

[Dimorphic]

$15 AUD = not worth a double dip as I have it on XB1. I'd have bitten at $5.

 

[Dysun]

I would buy it at that price if the install wasn't 50 gigs and I could play more than just Attrition. Oh well

 

[Dreavus]

Is horde mode in the standard edition of the game? Might try to convince a few friends to go in for this if it is. Kind of a bummer the DLC isn't so steeply discounted along with it.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

For 5 dollars I would definitely recommend it if you are a fan of faster FPS with lots of movement.

I basically lost interest after about 2 months but not before putting in about 80 hours into the game.

It was a really good time...there was just a lack of things to do after a while. Game would have definitely benefit from more control over your matches, set length, set map, team switching when there is an empty spot etc etc.

Yeah it was a free patch for everyone.

$5 for access to a dead community

Stop it. It's not dead.

 

[Card Boy]

For fucks sake it's not dead.

It's not dead. I play it at least once a week and can find games.

Stop it. It's not dead.

Er yes it is. Stop lying to people.

 

[Ziffles]

Oh, all right EA. Sheesh.

I'd rather it be a PvZ:GW sale so I could get others on, but I can't pass up $5.

 

[AlexBasch]

Fuck, it's 15 in the mexican store.

Think Amazon can price match a code? It's how I have been getting my games there, getting the code and redeeming it through Origin.

 

[Pathfinder]

Er yes it is. Stop lying to people.

Why are you so intent on turning people away from the game?

Did a titan fall on your puppy or something? Good lord, give it a rest.
