I might have worded it too vague.

a) even if the X1 attach rate were 100%, it would still be worse than Watch Dogs. 

b has nothing to do with realized sales, and c means that they could care less what people on forums think.

Titanfall has been a success for all, and TF2 will be at least twice as big. Regardless if they announce their sales or not.

Most all of their consumers play the game, they don't play sales receipts.

So, Activision is disappointed  with every CoD since Modern Warfare,  Ubisoft is disappointed with every Assassins Creed, Sony is disappointed with Infamous SS and Killzone SF...

Considering they wanted this title to compete with the big boys, and they haven't announced numbers, it's pretty obvious that it didn't beat expectations. That is just PR speak. Either that or MS didn't feel the numbers, both SW and HW, and didn't want numbers released.

And knock off the "no numbers doesn't mean anything" stuff. Of course it does. This game was hyped up to be the GOTY. The savior of the One. And not just by fans, but MS, too. If the numbers were just awesome, you can bet they would be screaming them from the mountain tops.

Then release the figures. Regardless of what they say, people will always measure the user base against sales and hype then come to their own conclusion.

Reminds me of a politician claiming to be happy with the votes he received after losing his seat in an election.

Hope the game did well, though. Got the PC version but yet to play it.

For me it was more about selling consoles than copies, but I suppose that's not EA's problem.

not to mention, Titanfall was percieved to be EA's next COD killer.  Maybe on the X1 if comparing COD vs Titanfall sales, but that is all.  With such a small X1 install base (something I'd imagine EA wasn't expecting and caught off guard with during exclusivity deal), you'd be hard pressed not to believe that sales didn't meet EA's expectation.. I mean, look at their other games and sales vs Titanfall and assumed sales.  Anyone really thinking Titanfall had a 50+% attachment rate on the X1 and Titanfall turned out to be THAT blockbuster game for EA?  Also, look at Titanfall on the 360.. even smaller sales compared to the X1, but with an 80 mil install base?  You know that's got to sting.  As for MS case, same could be said.. Titanfall was the "ace" up the sleeve, only to see the PS4 outsell the XB1 in March during a period that there were basically "no games".  That's gotta be a big blow to both EA and MS's expectations.

All this PR speak and the magnitude of defenders and their justification for weak sales.  Look at what WD did with about the same amount of ads and being a multi console release.  To add, with the dudebro shooter fanbase in the gaming community, Titanfall should/could of sold better... definitely should/could of been better than WD with a multi console release. 

I would say this should put an end to all of the silly conspiracy "I know more about EA's internal numbers than EA themselves" but I see even after this insight from EA, there are still those who need the game to be a failure.

Where are the Battlefield 4 or CoD:Ghosts numbers? Where were Killzone SF numbers after 3 months? Were are Infamous SS number? Tomb Raide DE? MGS:GZ?

You assume to much. 

Not sure why they are not sharing sales numbers. Three million plus copies is very solid sales.

Hmm I would have thought a GOTG would have some sales numbers to go along with it..

Sony released both infamous and KZ numbers lol
