ideas from titanfall


(Protekt1) #281

[QUOTE=Erkin31;493905]We should also talk about the bad ideas from titanfall that Dirty bomb should avoid :

  • Very low tickrate (30…)
  • Only matchmaking games.
  • 90 secondes of timer before each game. (and games are really short)
  • Unbalanced mode (Titan in CTF…)
  • Unbalanced weapons (Weapons with a lot of spread are useless and not fun in this kind of arcade game).[/QUOTE]

Titans in CTF isn’t unbalanced. In fact they’ve balanced the maps pretty well that titans have a diverse impact depending on the map.

The weapon’s spreads are all pretty much the same with few exceptions. Just look at a weapon chart.

BRINK had better a better movement system than Titanfall. Titanfalls movement system is extremely annoying and frustrating. It’s too casual and mainstream, you don’t have control over your character, he does everything automatically, it’s bull****!

Titanfall also has a locked 60 FPS cap, stuttering and forced mouse smoothing, terrible!


(Snotling) #283

It’s definitly worth playing Dirty Bomb then. I’m confident that it’ll be great at release.

this hurt to read. brink was a travesty catered to console gamers.

you can uncap fps, and use raw input. just add “+m_rawinput 1 -noforcemaccel 1 -noforcemspd 1” to the TF launch options. unlocking the fps is bit trickier, and will be unlocked next patch regardless

I didn’t say BRINK was good, I said the movement system was better than Titanfall, which it so most definitely was. The irony in that post is that Titanfall is catered even more to console than BRINK was. Sure everything was bound to the same button in BRINK, but at least you had a button! In Titanfall everything is just automated, no buttons at all. Again, terrible!

You can uncap FPS at the expense of variable mouse sensitivity and stuttering, just making everything a whole lot worse, so no, you can’t really unlock it. There is no raw mouse input, those commands don’t work, and if you really think they do then you’re either playing with vsync (which is a crime in and of itself) or you’re a terrible player, or both. Either way, you’re wrong.

even thinking about justifying this conversation has made me a little bit dumber, but you are of course, entitled to your opinion.


(Litego) #287

There is opinion, and then there is fact.

Brink gun play took the most skill out of the fps games.

There is raw mouse input. It does work.

As for capped fps, there are plenty of ways to have vsync off and cap fps. Not sure why this is a specific complaint about titanfall. Disable vsync and use your GPU app to put a framerate limit around your monitor refresh rate.

Nope

Because it doesn’t solve anything, all that does is make it worse.

Where does it say Titanfall has a small playerbase? It’s just saying that CTF and Pilot Hunt wasnt played that much, so it got removed.

[QUOTE=Shifty.;497753]Where does it say Titanfall has a small playerbase? It’s just saying that CTF and Pilot Hunt wasnt played that much, so it got removed.[/QUOTE]if a game doesnt have enough players for 5 modes and removes 2 the playerbase cant be that big!


(Kl3ppy) #297

No, Attrition and Hard Point are the best modes imo. Never played CTF and Pilot Hunt.


(Ashog) #298

Hope they don’t make the game like Hawken did - on paper play2win, in reality eternal grind to get any of the mechs unlocked with some more or less non-basic weapons. What you get is one ****ty starting mech with basic guns and the credit accumulation for unlocking any other mechs is painstakingly slow. Don’t even wanna try all these mechs if it comes at such time cost. And buying them would be silly since no way to try them all beforehand - cat in a sack, some seem to be really crappy.


(Protekt1) #299

Hawken gives you 3 premade mechs that cycle. That is how you can preview.


(Ashog) #300

Yeah, I have previewed 3 now. So what, now I have to wait for weeks or months in order to be able to decide which one to buy next? This is sick.
