It doesn't look too impressive from a graphical standpoint but the gameplay looks tight. And that's what matters to me the most. Sure, pretty graphics are nice but it isn't enough to have fun. I'm looking forward to it but I don't know which version to get (PC or Xbox One).

 

Whichever you prefer to play FPS titles on.

 

Any recommendations on where to preorder TItanfall for Xbox One?  I noticed I can preorder on Origin's website.  Do they send you an actual copy of the game?  Or is it a download on the xbox one?

 

Your local game store or digital download.

I thought it was said that those that are Origin members are getting the first shot at the alpha and that you will receive an email directing you to a page to join.I am registered there, but I haven't received any email yet, so it may be a small group right now.

You had to register even if you didn't get the email. I didn't get the email and it worked without a problem. Got a code

So.. an EA game and they actually specify as alpha? After BF4....GOOD LUCK WITH THAT BUDDY! LOL

No Titanfall is not an EA game. It's just simply being published by them. BF4 is actually an EA game, ie. one made by a studio they own. EA has nothing at all to do with Respawn Entertainment (makers of Titanfall), outside of being their publisher.

Oh thank god, I was worried there for a moment.

That looks pretty damn complete for Alpha code, Apart from the bad loading times (1:15sec is REALLY bad) the game itself looked pretty average in FPS view, infact it reminded me of Killzone Shadow Fall with the post apocalyptic slums look. The Titans were cool, they played nicely, but I guess I was hoping for a more 'Mechwarrior' style of Mecha, instead it looks like its still FPS, but the gun is now bigger. That to me was disappointing. 

Looks like XB1 owners will be getting a quality game though :)

Uhhh, Did respawn officially call this an alpha?  From what I saw them tweet it's just a closed limited test.  Either way the game looks close to finished, this test is probably for network balance and other gameplay balance.  As far as the titans go, we just saw one in the video but I know for sure they have at least 3 types you can pick and they play different.  Those who wanted a more slower type of mecha game play out of this then you haven't been following along closely. It was always going to have a fast pace to it, they'll also have some type of objective based story going on though.

The only Mech game that currently gives you the "feeling" of being in a huge heavy mech is MWO. the other ones are just high speed acrobatic action games that happens to (sometimes) occur in a big mech skin.

Looks pretty good, reminds me of PlanetSide 2 in regards to the futuristic theme and graphics. The graphics aren't the best but the gameplay should make up for it hopefully. I was worried when they said it was going to be 3x3 servers only but the AI 'Grunts' fill up the large map so it looks fast paced and wont just be walking around aimlessly trying to find someone to kill.

 

TitanFall (PC Version) is being released 13 March 2014.

Honestly if you are okay with the controller I'd say go with the Xbox One version, purely because I imagine MS will try and push that version as the best one, you know

As for pre-ordering, Origin will be digital download on PC only, but your local Gamestop should be taking pre-orders for all formats.

      Nice rant! Expletive after expletive after expletive. Poor petal, I've touched a nerve. Would you like a tissue to wipe those tears away. Btw, nice one calling Neowin trash. Why would you stick around when you disrespect this site and the people behind it? Just go away if you feel that way.
