Holy shit.

Omg people are so sensitive today.

This is kind of stupid. If you're unhappy about the exclusivity, don't buy the Xbox One and don't buy the game.

If you want to play the game, get an Xbox One or get a better PC and play it on that. I was going to wait for the PS4 version, but I'll probably get it on PC now

And it will actually be in 1080p..... But still won't have a single player

I'm enjoying seeing the hardcore Sony fans say how horrible of a PR comment that is. Number one, the dev person is not a PR person. Number 2, he is not insulting anyone, he's basically stating a true. Third, this is aimed at fanboys in general, not the general customer. I find it amazing how much funneling fans of the opposing console are. Please, go out and find another hobby. That kind of obsession is bad in anything you do.

Considering that I was already going to buy it on PC prior to the announcement of total exclusivity and it had nothing to do with not wanting to buy an X1 but rather because I prefer my FPS games on PC, no. I was not one of those gamers. He did, however, make me want to be one with that comment. You don't seem to understand how bad this can be for MS's PR, do you? He is absolutely giving the finger to people, regardless of whatever defense of his you wish to rush to, and that is NEVER a good thing to do because you piss off potential customers. Even if they weren't buying an X1 for Titanfall they may have been later for other reasons. MS's PR has been a joke this entire time. From Mattrick's idiotic comments prior to the 180, to Nelson's remarks about the X1's capabilities that he later has to shove his foot in his mouth for, to the lies and evasive maneuvers over the resolution of third-party games, and now what many Xbox fans have called a credible Reddit source in the past telling PC gamers to basically "suck it" over Titanfall for not buying an X1 for it. Yeah. Bang up job. He may be responding to fanboys mostly, but that is still a very bad PR move and still not even accurate to combat fanboyism with because you're basically saying, "HAH! You gave us $100 for an OS instead of $620 (plus recurring $60 yearly) to  help us justify making it console exclusive and helping us pay off the losses we take on every console!". Pretty weak. Very funny to comprehend.

This long, angry reply just confirms what I said. You are one of the people he is referring to and he is exactly right.


Not angry at all, actually. I was laughing as I typed it out if we're being honest. Since you have nothing else to reply with but a logical fallacy shall I assume you're just as butthurt as he was? :]

Its funny Microsoft is riding on the Titanfall hype , they always focus on third party stuff rather than their own, why hell do they always do that? you have great talented first party developers USE THEM instead of spending money on developers who don't give two fucks about you when they get their game out.

Well he doesn't seem butt hurt at all so I guess your assumption is correct. As for the fallacy, again all it takes is reading your previous reply. Why does it bother you so much that this guy was right? Actually I don't care, the reply will be boring but go ahead and have the last word anyway.
