It won't come close to COD, it will give x1 a small boost then go back down.

From the Arthur GIES Polygon 9/10 review:
"If there are complaints to be had, I'd point to performance. Titanfall sits at 60 frames per second most of the time, but when three or four Titans are on the screen at once, firing rockets and arc blasts, things take a dive. It's never not playable, but it is noticeable"
Taking a dive means the framerate drops to the 30s like he said in a tweet:
But not a word in his review about the screen tearing abundant in the game? I am abashed at that because many reviewers are disappointed about the screen tearing problem. More people will be disappointed when they see such quantity of screen tearing in a next gen game.
Remember when Gies scored COD on PS4 0.5 less because it had occasionnal framerate drops and it created (only for Gies of course ) an important gameplay problem on PS4? But here frequent 30s drops with abundant and awfull screen tearing (when it matters the most!) but it's 9/10 OK?
Bullshit.
Where is that guy that liked to compare The Last of Us to everything?
I think it was Allard J or something...

What kind of reasoning do you use to arrive to such conclusion?

You realize that gif is pretty old and that people use it (in jest) for most EA games, right? Exclusivity had nothing to do with it. Hell, it has ME3 in it |
Yes. I simply poked some fun because it was taken from GAF.

In today's review climate, 85-87 (which I presume is the range this will end up in) is very good. Especially for a multi-player only shooter which is kind of gimped in its review range by its very nature.
I don't think this is the game Microsoft needed it to be for the Xbox One's sake, but it's going to do a decent job of sustaining it through Q1/Q2 I suppose.
Will check this out when it's discounted on PC down the line. The video reviews have convinced me.
If you look at other games that Toronto guy has reviewed, he doesn't harp on SP only games because they have no MP. It's a strange double standard that exists, where a MP game s viewed as less worthy because it has no SP, while a game with no MP gets no such penalty in review scores. His review reads like a high 8 or even a 9 score, but it's a 7. It's too bad that such a flawed review is bringing the meta down, but oh well. Those of us who have experienced the game were never too invested in review scores anyway.

That ALWAYS happened to hyped up games. The first non 10 score and if/when it drops below 90. I expect TF to sit in the low-mid 80s when it's all said and done.

At least Gies didn't lied this time... there are performance issues and tearing in the game.

Regardless Ttianfall will have a huge following. MP fans can add points to any review marking it down for SP. The beta was phenominal. Im surprised a MP only game is metaing at 88 so far. And could rise. |
Why would you be surprised? There are multiple online only FPS with similar scores. Some even with higher scores.
Regardless, Titanfall being online only is irrelevant. FPS are often scored down for having a half arsed SP. It could just as easily argue from that point that Titanfall is actually being reviewed above series like COD and BF because of that.
