now their tweets just say "may open up for PC" so nothing concrete
That could be a much bigger influx of people that they'd rather not deal with right now.
I haven't been keeping up with this game at all, but I've watched some beta gameplay and I'm really wondering; why does it have moba style creep bots that look like players? What purpose do they serve?
battlefront-esque game-type, maybe?
cannon fodder/power fantasy stuff mainly. gives terrible players like me a way to contribute to the success of the team. makes battles feel more fleshed out without being as annoying as a higher player count would be, etc. it's gonna be divisive obviously, but I'm in favor of having different tiers of combat in the name of accessibility.

Tomorrow apparently starts open beta for PC, just what I've been hearing from word of mouth from big streamers and a couple of other people, I've been enjoying this a lot, reminds me a lot of mech warrior.
Just refreshed my library in origin and got Titanfall access, no code no email. Double check if you're still looking for access.
That auto pistol is retarded.
Got a burn card for the Stryder, I don't know why I didn't use the rocketpods but it's a fun titan with a quick regeneration for it's dashes.
Pretty fun game so far. I'm enjoying hardpoint the most. There's something about Attrition that doesn't sit well with me though, I can't quite put my finger on it.
I also really wish people would hack spectres instead of killing them, or don't kill them AS i'm hacking them.
i imagine a lot of people don't know you CAN hack them
Just started playing and I´ve gotta say it´s insanely fun and a lot more dynamic than I thought it would be. Just a few minor annoyances I´ve come across so far.
1. No UI customization (fucking HATE the map being placed at the top left corner)
2. Everybody and their mother using the Smart Pistol
3. STOP KILLING MY FUCKIN SPECTRES IM ABOUT TO HACK

downloading this shit now, if you registered before 4pm yesterday you should have access to the beta in the "my games" section in origin. super excited i get to play this before shelling out 60 bucks, but was probably day1 even if i didn't get to.
smart pistol is built for minion hunting, in a pilot vs pilot fight any other weapon skillfully used will wreck your face
