Title: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on May 05, 2014, 05:34:38 AM: Here is the German top 50

I thought this was the game that was supposed to be the system seller for Xbone etc, but it seems that outside of the US and UK the game has been a big flop.

Title: Re: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: Phoenix Dark on May 05, 2014, 07:47:57 AM: Didn't the game come out more than a month ago? Why is it surprising it's not in the top 10 right now. Top 30 doesn't seem bad (it was #17 last month).

A more telling stat would probably pertain to how many people are playing multiplayer now.

:lol

I mean what else is there to say. I think you're right, it did flop outside of the UK/US and I'm going to guess the 360/PC versions are going to steamroll the ONE sku.
Title: Re: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: archnemesis on May 05, 2014, 11:12:59 AM: The One hasn't launched in most European countries and Origin isn't very popular. The 360 version probably sold alright.

Title: Re: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: Takao on May 05, 2014, 03:32:27 PM: I get the sense that the game hasn't met some of Micorosoft or EA's lofty expectations. I say that because publishers love to champion how well their games are selling. As far as I can tell, that hasn't happened with Titanfall
Title: Re: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: Shaka Khan on May 05, 2014, 03:48:14 PM: I agree that dearth of performance reports post launch is suspicious. We know that it moved decent amount of SW (crossed a million in sales, iirc), but we also know that it didn't move as many systems as MS hoped. And that if EA expected it launch to the smashing success of Halo, Gears, and CoD4 then they're probably reevaluating their plans.

I've got no interest in ever playing Skyrim. Good thing I never bought it!

Have they released numbers for Titanfall yet? Does it compare to CoD Ghosts' and Battlefield 4's sales on Xbone and 360 within the same timeframe?

Same. I'll have to rectify that eventually.
Title: Re: Has Titanfall been a big flop outside of the US?
Post by: bork on May 05, 2014, 04:23:26 PM: I tried Skyrim briefly and got pretty bored. Added some mods to make it more ~~fun~~ stupid, but all the crazy sex shit didn't work right. Was pretty funny being able to get out of stealing anything by offering to "work it off" though.

I'll blame if you if Fallout 4 doesn't have random giant robots encounters.

They haven't.

Apparently its NPD debut is about a million or so and that's including the bundled xbone version.

We might get a number when EA does their forecast (iirc it should be this month) but it could be a total shipped figure of the 360/PC/XBONE SKUs

Me and Positive Touch will come over and set up the mods. We'll even download the one that gives all the characters real cocks, just for you :mynicca

It always makes me angry that the cock mods are full-on erect. Never soft or half-hard or going to hard. Plus no pants on-off options. Step yo game up, modders.
