To the three that responded on mine post about cloud what I'm questioning is Ms propaganda about Cloud making the Xbone 4x more powerfull and some users saying titanfall being possible only on Xbone because of that and then the exclusivity. Used the player count to show the game isn't that advanced and graphics haven't benefited from cloud. So in the end it could have been done on ps4 if not by money hatting. And some members here are so hypocrite that they wouldn't ever assume what they defended as gospel a month ago. And why have npcs and ai on competitive MP? I would understand filling the lobby with bots if not enough players are available or if person decide to play MP offline, but mandatory seems unnecessary.

And the other points people just ignored because they didn't had cheap answer. About PC version being equal. Do you really expect that after paying for exclusivity MS would let PC have a much superior version?

And best part is how ms cloud would be the best thing on Earth because ms invested some billions on it... How is it to see it turned into a glorified server for MP?

Whether what that one dude from MS said is marketing propoganda or not remains to be seen. As DF and others pointed out after he said it, most people simply don't have the Internet connection to make use of it right now. So why launch window games would take advantage of it entirely, is beyond me. Luckily, console generations last years and years.

Regarding AI, the AI is not meant to emulate other players, that's why they don't "fill the lobby if not enough players". They are an integral part of the games mechanics, whether there are 4 humans on the server or a full 12.

MS supposedly paying for Respawn to nerf the PC version is just adorable, especially since you just spoke of propoganda.

Regarding the bolded, how is it to see it turned into servers? Awesome? What else could we want as gamers? As long as the servers do their job, that's great. If they are only as good as what EA uses, then its a waste of time and money. Of course, Forza 5 shows us they work pretty damn well.

You answer your own question... Obviously it was PR, if its not possible right now but announced as it would and you will pretend that MS userbase don't say it regularly.

I understand they are part of the mechanic, just think its useless on a MP game, but after JayWood explanation, if the people playing the game like it I don't mind.

MS is already paying Respaw for the exclusivity, wouldn't be too bright to have it being better (not talking about small details like resolution) more players, better texture, better frame rate, etc... or if Xbone version isn't really bellow PC would you think its normal or that Xbone is stronger HW than the PC?

So MS fanbase now think MS invested 3Billion on it to have dedicated servers for Xbone??? Because some say as if Azure were designed to Xbone. I have no problem with it being a server host cluster, I don't play MP but can understand the value for people who use it. Just think the expectations of some were really high.
