Titanfall Update adds Horde Co-Op - Polidicks

[quote][I]Titanfall [/I]is a [URL="http://kotaku.com/titanfall-the-kotaku-review-1541484198"]lot of fun[/URL], but there's no denying that it feels a little… thin. The game's exclusive focus on player-vs.-player combat left many of us wishing for a bit more variety. Good news: The game's latest update will add a cooperative mode to the game, and it looks pretty cool.The mode is called "Frontier Defense," and it's a four-player co-op mode that uses existing maps and sets players about defending towers from waves of computer-controlled enemies. [I]Titanfall[/I]developer Respawn debuted the new mode [URL="http://www.twitch.tv/titanfall?sf32851605=1"]today on Twitch[/URL]—they're still playing it now, if you want to watch. Frontier Defense looks pretty cool—players can set up automated machine guns, strategically place their titans, and even fight from a drop ship that hovers over the battlefield. While at this point it feels fair to say that this sort of thing should have been included in the game at launch, better late than never. Respawn will doubtless have more detailed information soon, including when the update will go live, and for which platforms.

I'd try this but holy fuck the download size. I've never seen a Source game break 10 gigs.

horde co-op is always boring. they should just add more to multiplayer

[QUOTE=Evi.tf;46304130]horde co-op is always boring. they should just add more to multiplayer[/QUOTE] Horde is incredibly fun when done well. Halo's horde modes are some of the most fun I've had in co-op, same with Gears of War. It just depends on how well it's implemented - and the AI in Titanfall are already good enough for this to work.

It is done extremely well in my opinion. Doesn't just feel like a hacked together mode, like MW3 Survival was. That wasn't done great and got boring quick. Also Beast in Gears of War 3. Switched up the classic Horde formula nicely, as you were now trying to kill the people you'd usually be trying to survive as.

I'm more interested in the "deadly grounds" literal don't touch the lava gamemode they are also adding in this update. Smoke on the floor of all maps that forces players to keep running around using the parkour elements. While titans gradually take damage in the smoke effectively making them a limited time power up. Sounds pretty bitching

Me and my friend bought this to play, and we still lose connection every 2nd to 3rd game. I guess this is more important.

Base game with all dlc is only 40$

They have also greatly improved the AI. Grunts and Spectres can now jump onto your Titan and damage, just like players can. At least they will be able to in horde mode.

Killing Floor is pretty stale. Also I just noticed Titanfall is on gametime on Origin, fuck yes!

[QUOTE=DBFT;46305676]Killing Floor is pretty stale. Also I just noticed Titanfall is on gametime on Origin, fuck yes![/QUOTE] But, there is a killing floor 2 that happens to look awesome as fuck on the horizon.
