I'd expect the AI not to huddle up in the same corner facing the opposed direction of the action. The smart pistol was just an example the dumb down aspect of the game. I cant ever recall being killed by one. but taking out grunts with it is about as easy and running up and kicking one. It became painfully clear it's not even worth your time to even mess with the grunts. They are pointless fodder, I wont even waste a bullet on one. Besides it's giving away  your position on the map.   The Titain timer is another aspect of the game being dumbed down. You don't have to do anything and you'll get your titan. Which is better to let run in AI mode, as it will get kills for you and you can watch it for pilots attacking it.  Another example of the game being dumb down. This game isn't for the season FPS player, and it's painfully clear. Now if you like it great. But don't act as if it's the second coming. 

So then you have no MOBA experience then and have no idea how creeper AI works. That's exactly what the AI in Titanfall is designed to be. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's "dumbed down". The AI is there to control the flow of the battle. You're right, you give away your position if you're attacking them out in the open or with a non-silenced weapon. But that's the point. An enemy pilot will see that and suddenly you have a gun fight. Or, an enemy won't see that, and you're racking up Attrition points or getting massive cooldowns on your Titanfall. Again, MOBA. Look it up.

You have no actual in depth reasoning for why the smart pistol is dumbed down. Gotcha. I can see now the other guy is right, there is no point in really trying. Some men just want to watch the world burn I guess. Not sure why you would even bother to buy the game LOL.

It's an auto shot pistol, how is it not dumbed down. I figured you'd played the game enough to get it.  Who care about my MOBA experience, I don't expect the AI to be dumber than a box of rocks. In any game. 

I'll usually hunt down Piolts that are trying to "rack up" attrition points and get just as many as quickly.

The game is simply not for the hardcore FPS player. And its seems your are not, as you wouldn't be making up every excuse in the book to save face. Not to mention you argument don't counter a single point i've made.

The second coming of Christ is the second coming of Christ... or Zelda U.



It doesn't have a single player mode

So I don't care however good the MP is (it was quite fun in the beta), it's not even the 5th coming of Christ to me

I played the Beta and Enjoyed it. I might get it eventually but I am still playing Assassins Creed 4. I am also saving my money for GTA5 port but that is besides the point...

Titanfall is the best selling game of the year so far and now the Xbox One is beasting. Xbox One has become the king of console Twitch because of this game. I think Titanfall did its job and will continue to sell throughout the year. What do you think?

It was not even the best game released that week................... X1 sales will drop to pre-TF levels in a few weeks so no it did not have much impact in the grand scheme of things. 1 week later the ps4 outsold x1 2:1 Worldwide, and even in the US and UK.

Yeah you arent really making any points though. Anyone can say "lol the smart pistol is dumbed down" or "the AI is dumb as rocks". Thats not making a point. I have been explaining why these elements are designed the way they are, you are replying with nothing but more one liners with no real substance. When you want to actually explain your thoughts feel free to hit me up. Otherwise there is no point.

They are points as why this game is desinged at the causual player. When you can explain how these add to the seasoned FPS player feel free to hit me up. because your points dont counter anything i've said. 



Well it seems to be the go-to FPS of the generation so far.

So take from that comment what you will



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

Best ever online shooter ive played. So whatever that means.

I can think of many, starting with the smart pistol and the laughable AI.

Instead of just listing them, why don't you go into detail about why they are "dumbed down"?

The smart pistol has a lock on ability, but it is worthless against Pilots. You have to have them in your sights right in front of you long enough for 3 lock on cycles to get a guaranteed kill. In that time you could have killed a Pilot five times over with any other weapon in the game. You must have been killed by the smart pistol a lot. LOL. Gotta watch your surroundings better. Just remember each time you're raging over a smart pistol death, if that Pilot had a carbine or spitfire LMG instead, you'd have been dead in 1/4 the time.

The AI, I am just going to chalk that up to the typical situation where you are just expecting the AI to be something it's not intended to be. That or you have absolutely 0 experience in MOBA games.

True, I dont even bother using the smart pistol against pilots. Its awesome against grunts and spectres.


Which is exactly what its meant for, farm AI kills to speed up the Titanfall. Great for Attrition or CTF. Some understand this, some cant get past the lock on ability and think its an auto win gun for noobs.

The ai combatants have loads of tactical and strategic uses. Thats the point of them. Good players utilose them well. I guarantee id kill you with the smart pistol. This game is easy to pick up and is hard to master. Best online addition in years is the ai combatants.
