But... You managed to last. So...

Not for long.

This thread has been interesting. Everyone not on XBOX side of things is disappointed and everyone who has some sort of xbox is pretty okay with this. PC players also seem kind of mellow but they usually love bigger is better.

As for me, this is completely okay. Despite, Call of Duty having a ground war mode with 18 players. Most people, ended up playing modes like team death match and other 6 vs 6 modes. Considering this has those titan things running around along with human players. It should be chaotic enough with the player count.

Anyways here is the response of Respawn PR team on that other site...

"Lots of armchair game designing going on in here. I'd suggest playing before judging a something as insignificant as a number in a vacuum.

Vince is right - we tried a huge amount of playercounts (all the way down to 1v1 and up quite high) and designed the maps, gameplay mechanics, and entire experience around which played best. If anyone wants to chase the numbers game, perhaps we're not the experience they're after? I dunno.

And FYI, for amount of stuff happening at once in a map you'll be hard pressed to find a game that keeps the action higher. I literally have to stop playing every few rounds because my heart just can't take it some times. Remember, you can get out of your Titan and let it roam on AI mode - meaning there can be 12 Pilots wallrunning around, 12 Titans stomping below, and dozens of AI doing their thing.

Oh, and I keep seeing people thinking we've got "bots" when we talk about AI. Thats not how they are. The AI in Titanfall are not replacements for human players. Our playercount is not 6v6 because of AI - AI play their own role in the game and are a different class of character in the game.

Can't wait! Only a couple months until speculative threads like this are gone and people are actually talking about their experiences with the game. Its truly fun stuff, and I hope everyone at least gives it a try. "

Cheers.

no it fucking isnt. this is the second time i tell you in the space of 24 hours. this either spreadng false information to bait, selective memory or just a short attention span.

Thats buying the game. Good luck playing it without Xbox Live servers.

EA said the same thing about Sim City... Oh wait.
Same thing occured with Diablo 3.

What can happen is that some smart chap will play the game, capture the packets that are sent to him, then reverse engineer it, it's happened before.

How do you capture the information that the Cloud is processing on the PC game?

Xbox Live Cloud is processing the AI, some physics and is swallowed in the dedicated servers of Xbox Live Cloud ON PC as well as The One.

Microsoft have opened it up on PC to Respawn to. Because Respawn said in June they were having to re engineer the PC version so it wont have all the bells and whistles. They were touting the Xbox One version as the better version then. But now the Cloud is available to PC gamers they arent having to gimp it.

It needs The Cloud to run. Not just play on.
