Wait... so there is single player, but requires online?

I was actually kind of interested in this game and now I just wish it bombs so fucking hard EA will have to use oil rigs to salvage whats left.

Bit weird, but this is EA, Sim City ring a bell? It is their choice, not MS's.


This. This is what Sony was saying all along with it being a choice for publishers/developers. And if a game requires online for single player than its a lot easier avoiding those games than a system built around.

So, this is a non issue to me

good that it wont be always online for pc

Considering the publisher, I find that... unlikely.



ROFL. NEWSFLASH !

Titanfall has to connect to Live. It cant be played offline! Its a MP Game. ROFL.

Also Halo didn't have Microtransactions. Waiit the term is now 'at launch'. ROFL.

ok .... then ....... what wrong with games of this genre ..... :(:(:(



It's an online multi-player game. Would be nice if it has a single player mode so I can learn how to play. But otherwise, like they said like WoW or any other MMO/on-line multi-player.

I think the reactions are a bit out of line.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

This is news? It says XBLG is required to play on the cover of both games.

Also, it seems this is more of an anti-cheating measure than DRM. Not to mention an unavoidable byproduct of being uh.. you know, a MP game. Was MAG's online only gameplay DRM? No, it was a MP game.



meh EA....I will be still playing Resogun.....offline.

how is this relevant?

apples arent oranges. 


How? If a game has a singleplayer mode then it should be an option to play it offine.
