This is what I'm interested to see. Many CoD fans aren't traditional video-game fans. I think it would be a mistake to assume that they'd pull off their military shooters en masse for a science fiction based shooter. I know men who hunt, work, watch NASCAR, and play CoD, with very in between that doesn't involve Wild Turkey. In their world, military shooters are acceptable, though anything futuristic might start to edge over into the domain of nerds and geeks. This is a demographic that will likely pass on Titanfall and I think there might be others. I'm not saying that it won't be big, just that I don't think it will be close to CoD level. |
I have to agree. I have friends and family in either the military or law enforcement, and many of them prefer to play the modern setting military shooters (recent CoD or Battlefield games), rather than sci-fi ones. In fact, a few of them only play Call of Duty, and have consoles specifically for that game alone. Of course, I admit that it is only anecdotal evidence. Nevertheless, I too am curious about how much Titanfall will draw from the Call of Duty fanbase.
