You bought it from a local store, right? If that's the case, you always have the following (a bit cheesy) option: 1) Order a copy from Amazon today; 2) Continue playing with your current copy; 3) Once you get the Amazon copy, don't open it, and return it to the local store where you bought the other copy; They won't know that this is not the copy you bought in the first place. |

that's pretty good.
Unfortunately, I'm to lazy. That's to much running around for $20 :-(

Ok...I got my TitanFall playing completely up and running last night. I have dabbled a bit since buying it, but last night, was my first like full session, playing like seven or eight games. Some of my thoughts.
- I went full on 'solo' the whole time. So that's my perspective. I had no clue how to get my headset working. That blew. I used the XB1 freebie that came with the system. It plugs into the controller, but no sound ever came out of it. WTF? So I had zero communication going on with my teammates and just like Cod, there seemed to be zero teamwork going on.
- I wish had some bros to play with. I had no clue how many teammates one has with TF. Six on a team? Eight? There's a lot of shit going on in these games, and the bots make things confusing. And the game play is very vertical at times. The action can be a bit overwhelming. Wander around one to many bends, catch a bad spawn, and 'bam', there's just to much shit flying at you. which leads to my next thought....
- I had my Titan buggered a number of times by opponents jumping on my head. Very annoying. I was probably out of position, but I wish I knew the command/button to press to electric shock opponents jumping on my head. Which leads to this....
- I have no clue how to adjust my loadouts. During the 60 second countdown, one can't tweak their guns or other perks. Where is the shock perk? How do I load out my players? But...
- This game is obviously heavily derived from CoD roots. The whole control scheme, aiming, and such just is completely CoD like. Which is good. But that's where the similarities end though, as....
- ...the game is so vertical. Feels like Halo on steroids to some degree. But the aiming, feel of the game is much better than Halo. And the graphics, good lord, ...they blow Halo out of the water. Halo has very non-detailed, bland looking maps. Big maps, but not a lot of details. This game feels like ten generations from the most recent halo with the color, graphics, models and everything else. Thumbs up.
- Other than not knowing how to change loadouts, and not knowing the spawns, where to go, the fact that most of the maps feel very similar (and that makes them hard to remember)....my biggest complaint is that it's hard to find actual pilots to kill. I got rolling a few times, shredding opponents, and it was a bit frustrating to see that like of my twelve kills, 11 were AI bots. Only one kill on a human opponent.
That said, even though it felt hard to find a human opponent, there certainly was a ton of action going on. Shit blowing up, shooting up stuff, Titans coming in. I seemed to be getting two Titans per game? Around there. Games seemed to last like ten minutes? It seemed like my crappy/rookie game play was getting me like 3 to 5 'human' opponent kills, maybe 1 Titan kill, and typically 8 to 14 robot kills a game, while I was dying maybe 4 to 7 times a game. Going say 5-7 in a ten minute game feels a bit light on action, but the game felt much busier than that stat indicated.
And again, I am brand new, sucking at this. I have no clue where to go. Most of the maps are huge and are all the same. Big map. Lots of square building in the middle, that you climb into and on top of.
The Parkour shit is fun. Running and climbing up walls, bouncing all over. Loads of fun.
That is all for now. |

I have all the Halos and like them. Don't like 'em as much as CoD, but they are fun.
TF is kind of an 'in-between' Halo and CoD. If Halo and CoD had sex, TF is what would come out of the womb.
......but I really need to play it a lot more to get a true feel for the game. The above is just my early 'feel' for things.

I think halo on xbone will be a game changer. Remember if it wasn't for halo xbox would've failed. It's the biggest reason I'm an Xbox guy.

You can't set your loadouts until that's unlocked, much like CoD. Also, the electric smoke is a perk which does you no good if you haven't unlocked custom titans. Its 6v6 and really scatter assed. If the rodeo riders start bothering you eject the second you hear the siren and the second you hit the ground shoot your titans head to kill them.

I guess the question is this..., how much time do you have? Like does it take them 30 seconds to destroy the titan? Longer? I have ejected a few times, but I don't see any opponent up on the head. I just see smoke and sparks flying out of the titan.

Halo got me on Xbox and is also got me hooked on online multiplayer FPS. Awesome memories from Halo 2 and Halo 3! Reach and 4 were a little disappointing. And don't get me started on the CE reboot or ODST... |
