[H]Titanfall just 6v6

[Lil Frier]

I think the concept sounds really fun, but I just feel the source engine is going to limit the game a lot and the 6v6 is really weak. I think 24-32 players is perfect. Not enough people you are being fired on all teh time, but enough targets to cause distractions and get some good flanks in.

But at the same time, I (and probably quite a lot of competitive players, not that I am one) think that 24-32 people is a complete waste of time, because it gets to the point where your results matter too much because of the quality of randoms you get on your team. I think that once you get above 8-on-8 or so, it's too hard to make a big difference in the game. It's why I would ideally see this stay 6-on-6, while removing the A.I. cannon fodder garbage.

I want to ask that does Titanfall support DX 11

 

[Nintendesert]

I'll let you know. :sneaky:

Gamegpu has their usual performance review. The game is capped at 60hz with vsync off. Its not a heavy game so it runs pretty well on a lot of hardware, my second 680 will be totally idle due to the cap.

The insane textures at 1080p require 3GB of VRAM. That is the first time I have seen a game blow through the usual 1-1.5GB sizes. What is more surprising about that is looking at gameplay and pictures (pcgamer.com) the texture quality isn't great and yet the memory usage is enormous.

60hz only,that is bad console porting at it's a finest.

 

[smackababy]

It is also a beta, and not indicative of the final build. Just saying, the 60hz cap could be removed.

That's kind of hilarious, reminds me of when Crytek said Crysis 2 wasn't a console port, yet PC version received "please connect Xbox controller" errors.

Oh and about VRAM, BF4 with max settings uses ~2290MB, people with 1440 with max gets close up to 6GB VRAM used.

This has been repeated hundreds of times in VC&G and it is largely false. It isn't using that much, it is caching with the extra memory.

On the 1440 using up to 6GB thing? My OSD reported 2290MB at 1080 for me with my R9 280X.

 

[smackababy]

Not bothering it considering EA has their stinking dirty hands on it. As well as it being developed by people responsable for turning CoD into a console trash it is today.

This doesn't make any sense. Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2, and Call of Duty 4 were developed by these guys. So, you're saying Call of Duty was either always console trash, or you're just another know nothing spouting internet mumbo jumbo ignorant opinions you heard from some other know nothing.

The engine caches ahead. BioShock infinite does the same. I have also seen process explorer report different usage than the osd from afterburner.

 

[Nintendesert]

Well, I'm having fun with it.


There's a crazy shake to everything once a lot of Titans start fighting. I also didn't even take notice of minions, I just fire and look for pilots. They are pretty much just landscape to be destroyed.

I will say this, don't bother shooting in CQ, just kick people. I am a like a ninja.

Never seen much more than 2GB at 1440p at max settings.

Or, he means that MW2 was the start of the end for Infinity Ward titles, which I can agree with. It had some of the worst logic I've ever seen. In addition to the trademark CoD Target Assist that ruined trying to aim AT people, MW2's shotguns were terribly overpowered (too much range), the knife had WAY too much range (especially with Commando on), and the grenade launchers were probably the worst I've ever seen.

While CoD 2 and CoD 4: MW were good games, MW2 was where it started to turn bad, in my opinion. Respawn's group was responsible for that game, who while the person you quoted might be wrong in what he meant, what he actually said is pretty-much how I feel. Respawn's group made arguably the best games of the series, but they also started their half of the games on a path to total garbage with their last title.

Maybe someone can help me out.

Right now I can't even play the game. When I move the mouse, it just jerks right to where I stop, like there is no movement inbetween at all. If i move the mouse super slowly it goes ok. If I run around and jump just using the keyboard it moves just fine. I figured it was maybe an FPS problem, so I lowered everything down to low/off and same thing as with everything on high. Oddly enough when I turn the mouse sensitivity to it's highest it is smoother but still not even playable in any way. Also I tried using my 360 controller and it moves and acts just fine, even unplugged the controller thinking it might be messing with something and it didn't do anything.

I can sometimes see my mouse flying over on to my second monitor for a brief moment. I thought maybe it had issues with multi monitor setups even though it is running only on one display. So I disabled my other monitor and same thing still.

I have no clue what else to do, I'm not going to play an fps on a pc with a controller that is for sure.

 

[smackababy]

Perhaps there is a controller setting you have checked that is messing with how mouse input is recognized. I haven't gotten in the beta, so I can't really help beyond that. =(

Unforunatly there isn't as the amount of options there is limited.

Under controls in the options menu you have:
Mouse/Keboard Settings - when you click on this you have keybindings, mouse sensitivity, mouse acceleration, and mouse invert

Controller Settings - when you click on this you have button/stick layout, look sensitivity, look invert, look drift guard, vibration

Thanks though

I assume you have your controller plugged in. Try removing it and then starting up the game. Perhaps it is auto dectecting and defaulting to the controller, thus causing the moues to be wonky.

Already tried that. I've restarted the game after doing nearly everything I change just to make sure since it is beta. Even restarted the PC like twice

 

[Clinkster]

Checked my email, looks like I'm in the beta. I'll check it out tonight with the PC in my specs and report how the performance is.

 

[VulgarDisplay]

Checked spam folder in email. "Prepare for Titanfall."

Glad I got in so I can decide if this is worth anything or not.

 

[hawtdawg]

people with 1440 with max gets close up to 6GB VRAM used.

No it doesn't. 1440p max settings with 150% resolution scaling and 4xMSAA won't even crack 3 gigs.

 

[smackababy]

I have the worst beta luck. I signed up "early" for the Xbox One and I got in the first day for the PC, but haven't received any emails about either.

Mine went to the Promotions folder in Gmail which I usually equate to spam. Did you check there?

 

[hawtdawg]

I got a beta key but they sent me one for the Xbox One instead of PC. wtf am i supposed to do with this?

I removed all those crappy folders and now just have one. And it wasn't in that or the spam.
