I thought I was done with shooters, but the footage of this game is giving me arena-shooter flashbacks. I grew up on that genre and I'd be happy to return to it.

And the F2P Mech Warrior. Blacklight Retribution has mechs, but you're better off not launching one in most cases.

The main thing for me is it looks very fast paced. I like that they seem to have maintained their strengths from COD. MY only real concern is the source engine. I've never really liked that engine or how it felt. But I have faith that the guys behind COD 4 aren't going to make a game with sloppy controls.

Looks like Killzone

Really? Because it doesn't look like the player is moving underwater. Actually it looks quite the opposite.

You guys, just because a gun is on the bottom-right of the screen doesn't mean it's like every other FPS out there. You can clearly see what sets this apart from other shooters, but if you don't care about the genre at all... why are you in this thread?

If I didn't know I'd be sure this was the COD engine. It looked and "felt" the same as COD4 to me. Very fast, very fluid. All in all a pretty amazing showing for this game.

You should download the 60 fps version of the 5 minute video. I must have watched the damn video like 10 times. It's eerily smooth. Not the sharpest looker ever but man its so fluid it makes up for it.

Raban · « **Reply #23 on:** June 11, 2013, 04:37:19 AM »

There are a bunch of neat little details I noticed in that 60FPS 1080p trailer. I love how the mechs help you get inside them, and the little animations when players skitter up ledges.

God, I need this game so bad. Lemme pre-order it on Origin or Steam or wherever the fuck you wanna put it, goddamnit just take my fucking money, EA

There is a part where a guy ejects from one of the mechs high up into the air and then another mech rail guns him as he is falling. It's amazing in 60fps. Battlefield in the fall. This in the spring. My shooter needs are set.

Activision was nuts to alienate these guys and force them out.

Himu · « **Reply #32 on:** June 21, 2013, 11:45:55 PM »

I'm still not impressed with this game. The only part that had my eyes wide in the gameplay video was the end when he safety jumped out of his mech and then landed on the enemy's mech. I'm not seeing the supposed Quake vibes aside from the fact you jump high. Watching the gameplay demo, Borys' Quake comparison is nothing short of hyperbole.

Then again, I can't stand modern fps games.

Stoney said it's fast paced I watch it and I'm like, what? I think it's slow as fuck. Will stick with TF2.

Himu · « **Reply #33 on:** June 21, 2013, 11:47:51 PM »

How does this remind anyone of an arena shooter? I'm confused.

brob · « **Reply #34 on:** June 22, 2013, 12:12:45 AM »

wall-run chaining sold me.

Getting to jump on a mech being all like HOLD DEEZ NUTS NICCA while digging around in it's exposed brain computer is a neat bonus. even if it turns out to be scripted and/or useless.

if you've actually played modern FPS games, you'd know that they're a lot slower and not at all vertical like this game. The jump button is more like an obstacle in the typical FPS, especially in CoD and BF.

In this game, not only is jumping useful, it seems to be necessary for survival and is only one of many agile maneuvers. Another thing you might notice is the importance of switching between an assortment of weapons that are attuned to dispatching either a titan or pilot. Both of these things echo some of Quake 3's core concepts like a wide variety of situational weaponry and its emphasis on player mobility.

If the most modern FPS you've played is TF2, then maybe fast movement speed and weapon variety isn't all that novel to you, but know that TF2 was the last time a multiplayer FPS did those things, and it came out in 2007.

The most modern FPS I've played was Farcry: Blood Dragon.

When I think of an arena shooter, I think of 1. fast movement, 2. fast shooting, 3. open ended, large levels with varying layers of vertacality. I saw none of this in that video.

Looks pretty boring aside from the wall running and boosting.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #38 on:** June 22, 2013, 12:29:38 AM »

Seriously, you can rip someone out of a mech suit, throw them in the air, and shoot them to shit. IF that doesn't interest you then you suck

Raban · « **Reply #39 on:** June 22, 2013, 12:32:14 AM »

I'm talking about multiplayer FPS, dingus.

And you should do a little more research, because everything you just listed is all that Respawn keeps talking about with regards to this game. I don't understand how you think those stages are small, or the shooting is slow, but whatever -shrug- did you even watch the 60fps video in the OP? I'd consider giving that a look before you comment on the game's speed.

Himu · « **Reply #40 on:** June 22, 2013, 12:36:27 AM »

Last multiplayer fps I played was BLOPS.

As for the speed, the rate of fire is astounding. But movement is pretty standard modern fps. I prefer my shooters to feel like I'm gliding. Like Scout in TF2.

My personal fear is that it has that sliding feel I hate in most of the source engines games I've played. I hate that. It always feels weird to me.

I'm hoping that's not an engine thing.

You don't see me strollin' into a game's official thread only to spend multiple posts tearing it down. I just wanna circlejerk with some FPSbros :'( Nothing about this game seems suspect to me, it all adds up to "no-brainer guaranteed fun". The talent behind MW1 + EA's money + Source engine + jetpacks + robots, if all of that isn't enough to set this game apart from the sea of shooters out there, then maybe just ignore this thread?

Gonna give the shilling a rest now, I'm as tired of it as you probably are. The new issue of Game Informer was just the infodump I needed to sedate myself until the next press release.

What? No one is strolling and trolling in this thread. We are discussing the game. That is what forums are for. It just happens that fps is my least favorite genre and this game got the IGN game of the show award.

meh. who gives a shit either way. It's pretty clear on the board who tends to gravitate towards mp shooters and who doesn't. It's no big deal to have interest or no interest in one. Drew was annoying in that other thread because he wanted to console troll in a thread about a game. But expressing interest or lack of interest in a game thread is fine. As long as people don't turn things in vendettas.

Battlefield 4 and Titanfall were far and away the most exciting games of E3 to me but then I'm a pretty big shooter fan.

Himu · « **Reply #49 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:38:54 AM »

It's not that I don't like shooters, I'm just really picky about them. It takes a lot for me to like an mp fps. If movement in the game were about 50% faster I'd probably like it.

In the same way that some people on here play most of the fighting games I tend to play most of the shooters. Only a few tend to reach an elite status in my mind but I tend to like at least some aspects of all them and its interesting to see how different devs approach fps design.

yeah, one of the things they say in the GI story is how their sci-fi influences are stuff like Blade Runner and District 9, as if nearly every sci-fi game isn't drawing from the exact same well

at least Destiny has a more unique look, but honestly a lot of it kinda looks like a cross between rejected Star Wars and Halo concepts

In any case, I like the idea of Titanfall. Guys with boosters and wall jumping is up my alley. Maybe they have a class system where you play as a super light soldier. Fuck mechs. Give me GunValkyrie in fps form.
