I forgot it did get drowned at release. But, IMO it was better than BF1 and COD. I don't think there's any FPS this gen that beats it's fun factor ...

It can be the best in fun factor, but unfortunately that happened to be the year that people decided that they did not want any more jetpacks.
Yea, that boots on the ground crap movement is hilarious to me. If the game is fun I don't mind either way. Well, if anyone wants to play on Xbox One my GT is PrinceKee. Would be nice if we could get some Era TF2 private lobbies going weekly or something...It can be the best in fun factor, but unfortunately that happened to be the year that people decided that they did not want any more jetpacks.
Jade Raymond did note that they were keeping the characters from the original version.
Titanfall 2 has probably the best single player fps campaign since the original MW. The game was a dream to play.
It has some great story potential to carry on, so would love to see more.

These two things are connected in an interesting way: Respawn's massive grudge against neue-Infinity Ward (and Activision).
Respawn themselves chose the Titanfall 2 release date because they wanted to stick it to neue-Infinity Ward and Activision by going head-to-head with COD. They thought they could come out on top. What they didn't anticipate was Battlefield 1 slipping it's date and having to go head-to-head with both of them.
They pitched Medal of Honor because, again, they wanted to stick it to Infinity Ward and ATVI.
It could still have singleplayer but now include an invasion component for all we know.
Isn't their next game supposed to be Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order for reveal at E3 2019 and release that fall
Titanfall 2 turned a lot of the people that loved and supported the first game off because they threw away so many fundamental gameplay systems that made the game fun and unique in order to try and cater to the COD crowd, and also the new emerging trends like "hero" classes. I absolutely love TF1, probably in my top 3 games of all time, but hated the shit out of the TF2 multiplayer tech test, and was severely disappointed in the final game even after they made a few much needed changes.
TF3, well unless they basically throw away everything from TF2 and go back to TF1 as a base and then add new things to it without removing things, I'm not even going to buy it. TF1 is just a better game in almost every way. TF2 was them chasing players that didn't want to and were never going to play TF2 no matter what they did.
People can praise the single player campaign all they want, but that's not why the vast majority of people buy these type of games, especially not when it's the sequel to a massively hyped and massively successful online multiplayer shooter that didn't even have a single player campaign. They dropped the ball on the MP, that's why the sales were disappointing. The "tech test" they released to the public left a horrible taste in peoples mouths. I didn't even buy it on release it was that bad.

It sold poorly compared to the first. The first sold more on an install base of like 7 million at the time than the second did on an install base of like 100 million across 2 consoles.
My lord the constant online begging from people telling everyone to buy the game was annoying. On the XB1 subreddit there was almost one every week, it was ridiculous. It almost seemed like astroturfing to try and sell the game.
It also dropped to half price or less after like a month, but apparently that's not a sign of a bomba these days....lol.
Their expectations were so high because the original sold around 10 million on essentially the XB1 alone, at a time when it was getting trashed by every media publication around, and there was a lot of trolling and hate aimed at TF because it was an Xbox exclusive.
Add in the PS4 population of like 50 million to the xb1s like 25 million and 10 million should've been a pretty conservative expectation.

they are taking it out back behind the school to get it pregnant, then kill it after it gives birth
Titanfall 2 was microtransaction central lol. Their whole DLC plan was centred around cosmetic microtransactions, to the point where actual new content DLC was nearly nonexistent and caused a lot of people to drop the game.
They even made changes to the game specifically because of the microtransactions - they got rid of the awesome, immersive first person titan entering/exiting and executions to make them third person so you could see your skins.
