Reactions With the Stars of the Community Volume 3: D-38 Boss

[VinWarrior]

You know the usual drill, where I get the stars of this forum's reactions on pieces of gaming news from around the globe, today I have a very special member with me today. This month's member was a recent addition to the Promotions and Events and has been my friend for a long time, give it up for... Onsoku- Wait wait wait, I made a mistake. I meant give it up for... D-38 Boss!

 

 

EK: Since Battlefield 4's buggy launch, fans of Titanfall worldwide are incredibly scared that Titanfall will launch in the same form or worse, do you think that EA has wiped that slate clean, or that we will see Titanfall brought in a messy state, based on past EA Performance with triple A titles?

D3: Truly, no game is safe from bugs nowadays. Battlfield 4 had many issues, but predominantly because it was rushed to match CoD Ghosts. Do I think Titanfall will have bugs? yes. Will it be to the extent BF4 had possibly, but unlikely.

 

EK: With the recent pushback of the Xbox 360 version of Titanfall, do you believe the last generation of consoles should stop distribution of new games as they seem to lack hardware for next generation games, leading those games to be brought down?

D3: I don't think the older systems should NOT have new releases, considering the hefty price of the next gen consoles, however, there are certain games, such as Battlefield 4 and GTA V, that struggle with the older gen systems. I think companies should take a bit more time to make the older console versions a little more compatible.

 

 

EK: Do you think the fact that Titanfall is an Xbox and PC Exclusive actually harms the game and it's sales and that Respawn and EA should consider broadening the title's launch platforms?

D3: I don't think it would hurt to expand to PS4/3, but I dont think it's necessary, as the large number of Xbox fans, and PC only gamers will do well enough sales-wise.

 

EK: On the subject of sales, do you believe Titanfall may sell less due to it's exclusion of Single-Player features and an only online system, as players will see this as not being worth the $60 price tag?

D3: That may be an issue later, as player populations drop. without a singleplayer, Titanfall will eventually become unplayable. Even Chromehounds (One of my favorite games) had a singleplayer, but now there's no online servers, the game is practically pointless.

 

EK: Do you believe that Titanfall will match or even exceed the sales of it's rival's system seller (which releases just weeks apart) Infamous: Second Son, or will it bomb compared to Sony's flagship PS4 seller in March?

D3: That could go either way. Titanfall is a new IP, with a lot of hype around it, whereas Infamous: Second Son is the third game in the Infamous Series. Personally, being a huge fan of Sucker Punch Productions, (Sly Cooper FTW) I'm leaning a little more towards Infamous. But like I said, it could go either way.

 

Thanks to Boss for the wonderful interview and tune in next time for another volume of Reactions with the Stars of the Community!

I can't decide if it would be egotistical to like this or not...

It's about Titans falling to the ground.

 

Good job again, Omega, for the interview.
