“We started Respawn with the goal to create a studio with some of the best talent in the industry, and to be a top developer of innovative games,” said Vince Zampella, CEO of Respawn Entertainment. “We felt that now was the time to join an industry leader that brings the resources and support we need for long term success, while still keeping our culture and creative freedom. EA has been a great partner over the years with Titanfall and Titanfall 2, and we’re excited to combine our strengths. This is a great next step for Respawn, EA, and our players.”
The single player campaign is amazing, with some of the most memorable levels I can recall in recent memory.GreenGoo wrote: ↑Mon Jun 11, 2018 9:36 am I hear (not just here on OO) that the campaign is quite good. I'm surprised but hopeful.
I looked at the deluxe edition and while the price was right it just didn't feel right doubling the price to get some extra skins and starting with most of the unlocks already unlocked. I mean, it's probably worth it, but when you buy a BMW for 10 bucks, spending another 10 on the undercoating just feels wrong.
But that's probably just me.![]()
And...I totally did. I don't know why I forgot, but I absolutely downloaded and tested out Titanfall 2 at some point. That's also probably why I had a customized control setup waiting for me this time as well.
I loved the world building platform level too., but effect and cause is an all time great.disarm wrote:That segment is definitely a highlight of the SP...totally unique mechanic that works perfectly and allows for some great gameplay moments. It's just a shame that it's over so quickly.
2021 wasn't a good year to be a Titanfall fan. With both the original Titanfall and its 2016 sequel (and briefly, Apex Legends) under constant DDoS attacks, allegedly from an absurd conspiracy of hackers. Titanfall 2 might not have been pulled from sale like its predecessor, but for the past year it's been effectively impossible to play the fantastic parkour mech shooter online.
That is, until Northstar showed up.
Released in December, Northstar is a mod that enables fans to run their own custom servers in Titanfall 2—bypassing the game's own servers and, in the process, evading the persistent waves of DDoS attacks. For the first time in a long time, pilots can wallrun and buttslide and slam their massive robots across Titanfall 2's maps without fear of having the server infrastructure crumble out from under them.
But in dipping into Northstar over the holiday break, I quickly found that a server browser hasn't just revived a cult multiplayer classic. It's completely transformed what it means to play Titanfall 2 online.
I couldn't agree more, although the fluidity of motion was one of the things I most loved about it. It was nearly effortless to run, jump, slide and wall run in combinations that were acrobatic in nature. And I am not a million actions per second gamer either. It just felt incredible to fly around the battle field, changing elevations at will. And that's before the combat, which was amazing and in my opinion well balanced despite many unique weapons.Smoove_B wrote: ↑Wed Jan 11, 2023 7:03 pm This game was so good. Even with the annoying wall-running elements, it's one of the best FPSers I've played in a long time. Easily the best $5 I've spent on a game in years. Would definitely recommend. The SP campaign is absurdly short (~6 hours), but that might not be a bad thing if you tend to have partially finished games clogging up your backlog.
We definitely need more games where you climb into a ~20' tall mech and get nutty.
I'll comment to draw more attention to this...very cool game that didn't get nearly the attention it deserves. At under $10, it's an absolute steal that shouldn't be missed.
