Microsoft Azure servers aren't exclusive to XBOX. If Titanfall 1 was multiplat even the PS4 and PS3 games could be running off them.


But why would MS allow that? It takes away one of the advantages of Xbox Live over PSN. 

 

Why would MS allow the PS4 to access bing? Same answer, although I'm not sure what exactly that answer is.

But Bing isn't an advantage of Xbox. Those servers are.

Disagree, every website said Xbox One has a better launch lineup of games when both consoles launched and more people still bought PS4. Xbox One has the best lineup and thats even before Mach 11 when Titanfall launches.

What ever helps you sleep at night, I'm happy with what I have on the PS4 :) I don't need to go around and "prove" to everyone that my console has a better line up.


We are also happy with what we have on Xbox One.

If bing was an advantage, they'd still allow it.

 

I don't work at Microsoft though. I don't know why they allow it, just that they do.

Well that exactly what I'm saying. You are just assuming things and making speculations.. :)

And I believe you are really downgrading what Azure is and what is the offering here... But I do not want to derail the thread. We already had plenty of arguing about that with people claiming (from both side) things out of their ass...

The thread is about Titanfall's exclusivity with MS, why it is the case, and whether it with include other series in the franchise.

Any one can offer servers and resources, can you show me an unbiased source that differentiates Azure from other cloud farms like Google and Amazon's? If Vince is denying that MS owns the IP, doesn't that suggest that they could make future installments multiplat. And if thats the case, then that raises doubt about its creation only being possible because Microsoft's "servers and resources". <- That right there is a reasonable doubt.

You mean to tell me that Sony, Nintendo, or even Valve wouldn't offer Respawn "servers and resources" if they asked and or were developing on there platforms?

Is it so much of a strech in logic to extrapolate, that RS got resources for TF because they were making the game for Xbox?

TitanFall wasn't even a moneyhat, like all you people are claiming it to be. Respawn chose Xbox over PS4 because of the 360's marketshare and shooter friendliness. 

Eventually, the Kool-Aid is going to run out and you're going to start seeing through the green.

I'm not claiming anything, I'm raising skepticism of PR claims.

You're the one assuming that MS, Respawn, and EA have nothing to hide. As though they have no incentive to validate there decisions and gain consumer support? Its not even a matter of reading between the lines, you shouldn't take anything any company says at face value.

Dude are you really arguing with me because I'm assuming that what people are saying is just the truth? If Respawn, EA and Microsoft claim something I see not reason to "doubt" them other than going the conspiracy theory way. Fine if fits your agenda, but stop with your crap by saying it makes any sense; everything is just speculations and assumption on your side. At least I'm not making anything up. You may choose to do not believe  anything from Microsoft/EA/Respawn, that's your problem but stop acting like we are stupid or going to wake up some day because the evil Microsoft is lying to us lol

And stop inventing stuff lol Nobody said that only Microsoft is able to offer cloud computing... But they offered it for free, that's it and yes it is very very good reason for a startup to work with Microsoft.

The reviews for Dark Souls 2 come out tomorrow? Sweet. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Don't you guys think Zampella want's nothing more than for some version of Titanfall to outsell COD eventually? It would be the ultimate F%&^k you to Activision. There is no way future versions will be exclusive.
