Is the OP okay? Titanfall released to 3.8 million Xbox Ones almost a year ago... The Order is releasing to nearly 20 million PS4s a year later... Unless it outsells Titanfall by 8 million it will be considered a failure by comparison. You're really reaching here, fanboys.

I uhh don't think you understand how sales work. 


I uhh don't think you understand how simple math works.  When Titanfall launched it sold 1.6 million copies in it's first month on the X1.  At that point there were less than 4 million Xbox Ones in the hands of comsumers.   40% of Xbox One owners bought Titanfall the first month it was available.  The Order, on the other hand, is being released to 20 million consumers that own PS4s.  Unless it matches Titanfall's 40%, and sells 8 million its first month... It's a fail by comparison.  I hate Microsoft, but I hate stupidity even more.

Okay, now I'm positive you have no idea how sales work. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Its just another lame middle of the road action title like far cry 4 or Assassins creed unity, so yes, it will sell well.

It's a tad more complicated than that. Yes, they are both shooters, but the audiences Respawn and RAD, respectively, are trying to attact are vastly different. Titanfall is geared towards the COD-esque multiplayer fanbase. The Order is more attractive towards people who prefer singleplayer experiences, so games such as Wolfenstein: The New Order or The Last of Us.

I don´t. I love Viedogames, i play them since Sega Genesis / Super Nintendo days, but the actual games are boring and lame as hell. Actiontitles like Tomb Rader or Soul Reaver were so great to play, so different, but now we have only one engine it seems, to programm an action Title. I love Action Games, especially Actionadventures, but 60 or 70 bucks for a 8 hour mess of shooting, stupid killing and doing senseless stuff is way too much.

The Order is not going to have great legs unless they cut the price to 30$ (which can happen soon) Is a game that will have weak scores, bad opinions on the internet and is a game that´s probably going to be re-selled by a lot of people the week after they finish, that would hurt sales.

Lol it would be disrespectful if the game did outsell all XOne exclusives. Although I really doubt it can pull it off considering the releases in the upcoming months.

Maybe also if pre-orders get cancelled often. Bad review scores can hurt sales, but it musn´t.

It wouldn't need great legs. A strong first month with decent bundling would be all it needs.

It's going to be interesting how things will turn out for The Order. I think it will have decent legs and it'll be impressive considering the type of shooter it is. The game is bundled with the PS4 in Europe and I won't be surprised if Sony eventually bundles The Order in the US during the holiday season. If I were to predict user scores from retailer site like Amazon, most ratings will be 5 stars and 1 stars with little in between. It's going to have good opinions and bad opinions. Whether the good opinions will outset the bad or not is the question.
