Titanfall is NOT a CoD clone..PERIOD! It is not about huge maps like BF. It is a fast paced, arena-esque FPS much in the vein of FPS of a time gone by like UT or Quake except that it has guns with sights, ordinances, loadouts and Titans which are akin to the CoD Killstreaks. The strategies involved in Titanfall aren't so different from what you find in games like Halo, CoD or BF, but in my opinion Titanfall has brought the FUN back to FPS and doesn't leave you with that "been there, done that" feeling. Now will I still feel that way 6 months and a couple of DLC packs down the road? Maybe and maybe not! But lets remember that this isn't some shlub dev team making this game. This is Respawn...aka....CoD 4 and MW2. By far the two best CoD's! I think they know what they are doing!
Yea they know what they're doing, making another CoD with robots and calling it new, seriously anyone saying this is not CoD is blind as hell and living in a dream world, they're using the same engine not to mention the same font style as CoD, the sound design and shooting mechanics are the same as CoD as well, i cannot fault them for this though really since they needed to get a game out as fast as possible and establish their company so they used the resources they already know.
And you have no clue what fast paced arena style is if you claim this to be one, so dont even try and compare this to UT or Quake because this game is not in the same league as those games.
It is more akin to UT, Quake or Halo than it is BF or CoD. Did you even play the beta? Or are you another hater that bases their opinions by watching videos on YouTube and Twitch? I actually played the beta and the speed of the game itself makes it something out of the CoD realm. I mean the last I knew there weren't 40 foot tall mechs in CoD nor were there abilities to double jump, wall hang and wall run in CoD. Oh wait I see, because a game is made by former CoD devs and that it has guns, load outs and a team atmosphere, it must be a CoD clone right!!
Oh and by the way, I played plenty of UT and Quake and I fully understand what an arena shooter is. I NEVER said Titanfall was an Arena shooter. I said it was "Arena-esque"!! Big difference in meaning!! Titanfall is not about sitting in a corner, waiting on guys to run around a corner and spraying them with your SMG. Nor is it about hiding in a bush with a Snipers rifle! It is full on run and gun and Titan fun!!!
Yes i managed to play the beta thanks to their last minute open beta and it was enjoyable but not worth full asking price, and full on run and gun is it?, then explain all the guys sitting on roofs with the sniper.
You can believe whatever you'd like about the game, hell call it whatever you like, but for a lot of us this is just a CoD with new skins and perks.
