The beta was underwhelming at best. ? got boring pretty quickly. It's like ....."ok I have call of duty.....I have battlefield....I have halo.....I have <<insert FPS multi-player game>>.....what does this game really offer me worth investing my time in that these other games don't?." Oh yeah....it give me mechs....woopty doo".
I think it could benefit from having a single player mode too. Just my opinion though. I'm not really a person who buys into the hype of certain games. -
^^^^ thanks for the HONEST review. Does it have perks?

Did not see this coming at all with them pushing back the 360 version...
Microsoft has announced that a Titanfall Xbox One bundle is available to pre-order from today.
Inside the specially-themed Titanfall packaging is a standard Xbox One console, Kinect sensor, standard Xbox One wireless controller, Xbox One Chat Headset, one month of Xbox Live Gold and a digital copy of Titanfall. All for the price of a standard Xbox One console.
To clarify: this isn't a limited edition Titanfall-themed Xbox One console and controller. It's the regular black Xbox One.
The offer will be available worldwide, though in the UK the offer coincides with a price cut of the console to £399.99.
Stocks are limited, however. Ahead of the announcement, IGN spoke with Xbox's UK Marketing Director Harvey Eagle. He said that the number of units was comparable to launch bundles that included FIFA 14 and Forza 5 in some territories.
"I would encourage people who want to get their hands on this offer to pre-order fast," says Eagle. "But what I will tell you is that it’s a significant promotion. If you think of it in order of magnitude as what we did on those Day One consoles with FIFA and Forza coming included. This is of similar longevity."
He also spoke of the anticipation around Respawn's first game and how the company's special relationship with Electronic Arts made this offer possible.
"There's certainly been a lot of hype for Titanfall. That's for sure," says Eagle. "We’ve got a partnership with EA which we announced when we launched Xbox One.
"I think you saw from us what we called the Day One offer which included a copy of FIFA. And this is now the next phase, if you like, of that relationship that we have with EA. We’re delighted to be able to include Titanfall at no additional cost for Xbox One buyers."
The new bundle is available to pre-order from today ahead of the game's release on March 11th in the US and March 14th in the UK.

I will never play this but I read on neoGAF that if you try to play it like COD or Battlefield than you're playing it wrong. Also read that the one feature that truly changes things from a gameplay mechanic standpoint (the parkour jumps and wall scaling) wasn't even close to being fully exploited by the Beta players. I expect some crazy looking gifs of that feature to be frequently updated once the full game is out.

Is there an explanation as to how you can defy gravity and almost fly without the Titan suit?
What's the backstory as to how that is possible?

Xbox One Hosting Event at SXSW and on Twitch March 10; Over 6,000 Titanfall Launch Celebrations Planned Worldwide
By Xbox Wire Staff posted February 27, 2014 at 1:00 PM.jpg?h=376&w=940)
The march is on toward the launch of “Titanfall” and the Xbox One team is incredibly excited. Heralded as “the most addictive game ever”, the “most important game in years”, and the “next generation of gaming”, soon you will be able to experience how life is better with a Titan.
In addition to over 6,000 midnight openings at retailers nationwide to celebrate the launch of "Titanfall" on March 11, Xbox One will be hosting a launch celebration in Austin, Texas at South by Southwest on March 10 leading up to the midnight launch. Xbox Corporate Vice President Yusuf Mehdi will be joined by Respawn Entertainment co-founder Vince Zampella and community manager Abbie Heppe, along with fans, developers, and SXSW attendees.
Located at the Microsoft Studio at 323 Congress Ave., the celebration will kick off at 9pm and will feature exclusive opportunities to meet the developers behind "Titanfall," cool giveaways, and of course, lots of "Titanfall" gameplay. A special performance by Childish Gambino, one of the most exciting young talents in music, mixing a unique blend of hip-hop genres, will cap the evening.
Attendance will be on a first come, first served basis – though you can also follow @MajorNelson and @Xbox on Twitter for exclusive opportunities to win your way in.
If you won’t be in Austin, we don’t want you to miss the special celebration, so we’re building a special Twitch live broadcast just for you. Tune in to our Twitch live broadcast at twitch.tv/xbox or on the Twitch app on Xbox from 10pm-2am CT on March 10 for incredible gameplay action, special appearances from Vince Zampella, Abbie Heppe, Yusuf Mehdi, the legendary team from Rooster Teeth Productions, Xbox Live Gamerscore and achievement leader Stallion83, Xbox’s own Major Nelson, GameTrailers TV and Spike TV host Geoff Keighley, Twitch’s Jon Carnage and many, many more.
We’re planning launch celebrations across Europe, Canada, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand - keep watching Xbox Wire for details as they get confirmed.
Of course, you can also pre-order your special "Titanfall" Bundle for Xbox One and read up on all things "Titanfall"on Xbox Wire or Xbox.com as we countdown to launch.

M$ going all out. I'm in Texas, so I may have to check this out. I didn't realize M$ had a studio down here. I guess its mainly for Twisted Pixel since they are the only M$ owned studio in Texas. A lot of good developers down here... Bioware, Retro, Activision/Blizzard, Gearbox, Id Software, Zynga, etc. GameStop headquarters right up the street. -

Turrets, Ziplines and Generations:
Heavy turrets are designed for killing everything—including Titans. When used out in the field, they are often braced into position in urban environments atop buildings, and have a considerable range of motion and excellent target tracking systems. Multiple Titans are usually required to disable a single heavy turret by focusing their fire on it. They operate autonomously and, in most cases, can be “flipped” (to fight for the other team) when a nearby console is compromised, often with a Data Knife.
Ziplines travel both ways, up and down. They're especially helpful in CTF matches and escaping areas quickly. You can attach to it from either end or even while in midair (assuming you're close enough.) You hold the reload button to latch on and ride.
