I love the conspiracy theories, So EA is delaying this to sell more XOnes?

EA wants this out as fast as they can, they dont care how many more Xbox ones sell.

MS is not the publisher.

Since when does EA care about releasing a buggy game? Even if they did, 2 weeks isn't exactly a lot of time to change anything major. It's not like they can improve the resolution or fix the framerate in that time. I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft payed $$$ to delay this version a bit longer in order to sell more Xbones. 


2 weeks sounds to me like it probably failed MS TCR, 2 weeks is enough time to fix what ever they failed on and get it rushed through again. 

But carry on as you were, MS is the devil and so on.

Lmao, overreaction much? Nobody is calling MS the devil. Calm down. It's strategy, I have nothing bad to say about that. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

So you think MS are just throwing Dollers at EA to push it back 2 more weeks?

Just don't see it, would not make a bit of difference, its had its exclusive launch. If MS are throwing money around they should of thrown money to delay the PC version too. 



My conspiracy is that they're giving Respawn time to patch some things in to the One Titanfall before the 360 version releases with those features.

Like private lobbies.

Would look a bit silly if the 360 version can do stuff the One version can't.



Delaying a game 6 days before release?

Might be a new record.

Looks like more technical issues form the 360 version.



this close to release to only push it back to Apr 8th i dont think its a technical issue. What do you think they could fix with that timeline?


Possible certification issues ir work on a day one patch.

Seems like they want it to remain a X1 console exclusive for a little longer to sell more X1s.

MS can deny a release if they want, doesn't matter who the publisher is.


That would be one way to completley sour your relationship with EA i suppose.



LOL at the people that actually think there is a conspiracy. I'm going to ask again and once again just hear crickets. Why would EA and Respawn, the creators and publisher of the game, purposely withhold a game from a massive install base?

The reason for the delay is simple. When Respawn/EA partnered with MS on this exclusive, PC/Xbox One became the lead in the development. We know this as fact because Xbox One wasn't in the picture until late in the game. Respawn has talked about this. Once Xbox One did come on board, Respawn, a very tiny studio, didn't have the manpower to continue work on the 360 version, so EA provided one of their studios, Bluepoint, to takeover the 360 version. Imagine being a developer and very late in the game getting thrown into the development of a port. This is simply what's going on.

And furthermore, even if you were to believe MS was somehow behind it, it makes no sense because they want the game to be successful. They want tons of copies across the board sold because it gives them better leverage for any future exclusive agreements. Yes, maybe it helps them sell a few more Xbox One systems, but it's pretty obvious they'd love to lock the entire franchise into an exclusive agreement. Limiting the sales from 360 doesn't help the overall sales for Respawn, which would ultimately make them more comfortable as an exclusive married to MS if lots of copies were sold across the board.



I wonder why that is.

Even if it is not what we are all thinking, it certainly helps MS quite a bit.
