EA treating Titanfall like a smaller product due to PC/Xbox exclusivity

very strange that anyone involved in the project would say something like this about it. "keep expectations in check" what is that meant to mean?

The only thing I can think of is, they're not encouraged by the pre-orders, and want to get out ahead of it in case they're lower than what the 'industry' considers a successful launch.  Hard telling though, 360, One and PC is hardly a tiny user base, so it's rather odd to be making this statement in my opinion.

Naw it has been said a few times here now, they're right to say it just to keep expectations in line with the first game of a possible series, like just them saying that Titanfall doesn't have an install base ready to buy it as a sequel/mappack so ofc it's not going to sell as well as games with a long standing fanbase.
