Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the fast-paced gameplay and fun Titans as major highlights of Titanfall. Many also praise the game's action, price point, and maps. However, some players express disappointment with the limited campaign mode and lack of a robust single-player experience. The absence of a compelling storyline is also a recurring criticism.

    After leveling up to level 15 with the beta release I've put a solid 5 hours into the final release. The game is great if you're playing with friends. it's incredibly fast paced, edge of your seat multiplayer keeps you coming back for more. The campaign mode is kind of lame it's pretty much regular multiplayer with a 2 minute background story before you go into battle, I still can't even make sense of what's going on in the story in my opinion it doesn't hurt the game but it doesn't really add anything to it either. I was a little surprised to the lack of game modes seeing how this is strictly an online game, this could get boring quickly but we'll see what respawn does maybe they'll release more game modes in the future. Overall I'm having a blast with it, it's a very fun game.

    Graphics, campaign options and weapons (including Titans) are comprehensive and keep it interesting. User interface pretty standard for FPS and easy to get used to. Occasionally loading time and local network access is longer, but not terrible.

    Amazing multiplayer shooter

    Titanfall is an infectous shooter that combines the power and destruction of massive bipedal tanks with the quick parkour movements of hyper-agile pilots who can run on walls, sport jump-increasing jetpacks, and spin kick their enemies with the best of them. It's a game that sets out to provide the definitive run n' gun experience and succeeds massively. The way the pilots play meshes nicely with the abilities of their tanks. When you call a tank in, it can defend an area or act as your body guard, or you can hop in and control it directly. A slew of smart ways to interact with your titan, your allies' titans, and your foes' titans are waiting to be discovered and they never disappoint. Whether multiplayer shooters are a genre you generally enjoy or not, there's a lot to love, here, for long-time shooter fans and neophytes, alike.

    Excellent multi-player. Getting to play as a pilot or Titan adds some change in scenario during gameplay. Fast paced and Attrition even gives you easy kills against grunts and spectres. So, if you suck at multiplayer...you can still feel like you accomplish something by killing the stupid AI drones. Campaign is ok. Little bit of background into the world, but winning or losing doesn't seem to matter really for the story. Campaign is just multiplayer with a little added in the way of cutscenes and voiceover. Single player would've been nice in this case. Draw you into the world a little more. Without Master Chief, etc...Halo might not be around now. Good story is how to keep drawing people back also. We'll see how the Titanfall series goes in a year or two I guess.

    Just got an Xbox One, and this was a great game to start off with. Got it during the holidays cheaper, but even at $40 I'd get it. Combination of first person shooter, with small and large scale battle, its great. Only downside: no story mode, entirely online, so not a game to last once interest dies out among other players.

    Titanfall: Revolutionary not evolutionary

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Last night I logged out of one of the most enjoyable gaming sessions I've had in as long as I can recall. The game I speak of? Titanfall on the Xbox One. That’s right, I’m sure you’ve heard of it. One can’t help but hearing about it as it’s one of the most hyped up games in the industry in years. But is it the game changer they say it will be for Microsoft? Well, here are my thoughts. I've played first person shooters (FPS) since Castle Wolfenstein, (the predecessor to Doom) which I recall purchasing at a local computer store for 25 cents on a 5 1/4" floppy. I have seen hundreds of games in those 30 some years that are hyped and probably 98% of them fail to match the hype. Titanfall will not match the hype. It will lock onto it, obliterate it and then stomp all over it. Yes it's just that good. I want to set clear though that this constant comparison I hear to Call of Duty and Battlefield, both two very successful FPS in this era, is, quite simply, utter rubbish. I keep hearing that Titanfall is “COD with mechs”. This is absolutely false and in this article I will lay out the reason why it is completely and unequivocally false. The first day I played the game was Tuesday on its release and I immediately took to the Titanfall forums to complain that I was disappointed in it because I was, as is typical for me, unable to survive for more than two seconds as I'm really not that great at FPS. I didn't like the matchmaking system which seemed unfair to me. I didn't like the fact I couldn't have any success at it and was hoping I would be matched with people who were, well kind of terrible at FPS like me, LOL. The irony in that now I see... Titanfall is the first FPS that I think that I have ever played in which anyone, even people not great at aiming and traditionally get slaughtered in games like Call of Duty and Battlefield 4, are going to be able to succeed at. Yes if you're a wonder kid at those other FPS you'll do just fine as well, assuming you play smart. And that's the key, what is best about Titanfall. It's not just a run-aim and gun game like most FPS. It's a thinking man's game. Yes that's right, you read it correctly, if you're smart but not so great on the joystick, like me, you will still find you have a lot of success quite frequently. I'll give you a couple of examples. For starters there's an auto-aim pistol that you can choose when you start the game. You just aim in the general direction of an enemy and after about 2 full seconds it will lock on. Just shoot several times and POW! your enemy is dead! Of course the creators of Titanfall knew to balance the gun so that it's not all powerful as well though. It's weak in close quarters combat and it does take a couple of seconds to lock on. You will find you die quite often waiting for the lock on. But it does have its upside if you're sneaky and can get lock ons for those of you out there who aren't quite a joystick jockey anymore.. Secondly, just about every action has an alternate reaction that you can use to counter it. It's sort of the rock-paper-scissors concept. You're in a Titan with huge guns and missiles? Ok, I'll be a pilot who turns invisible, parkours onto a roof, hits you with a lock on Titan missile and then runs quickly before you knew where it came from and does the same thing again. But woe is me if you do spot me, one shot at me with those big guns and I'm dead... Lastly, the game actually rewards you quite well for defending instead of just mindlessly attacking. My favorite game mode by far is the Hardpoint game mode which gives you three waypoints, A, B and C to capture and defend. It seems that about 90%-95% of FPS gamers only enjoy attacking. Not me, I enjoy defending. Defending is fun! And guess what? I'm pretty good at it I found. I cloak myself invisible, jump up on a wall and crouch there, waiting for someone to come into my waypoint. As soon as they do I drop a frag grenade, if they don't hear it, and they usually don't, then two seconds later they're DEAD...and I get big time points. And all without having to run, aim and gun someone down like I would to get points in COD or other FPS. Like I said, on my first night I was complaining about the game, wasn't enjoying it, finishing last every single time in my group of six. But two days later, because I learned HOW to play differently and I learned how to utilize all the tools and tricks at my disposal, I was finishing 1st or 2nd nearly every time on my team, despite the fact I was level 8 or 9 and all of my teammates were typically much, much higher level! This is why Titanfall is going to be HUGE: it's not just a shooter; it is a strategy game posing as a first person shooter. “Call of Duty with mechs”? Nope, Titanfall is so much more than that. It’s not an evolutionary concept, as that insulting phrase implies, it’s a revolutionary concept that is going to change how people look at FPS but most importantly it’s going to grow the FPS gaming scene into a much larger one that can encompass gamers who don’t spend 10 hours per day playing the game and/or that have the reflexes of a 13 year old on Mountain Dew. Bottom line – is the game fun? Heck yes its fun; it’s fun even when you’re losing! And that’s when you know you’ve found a special game. If you at all like playing FPS then buying this game is a no-brainer. This is especially true if enjoy first person shooters but do not like to play online because you cannot compete too well. Knowing that, in this day and age, innovation can actually occur in a supposedly tired and repetitive genre as the first person shooter is one of the best revelations that this 44 year old gamer has had in a long time.... Can you same game changer? Its name is Titanfall.

    Titanfall is a must own and must experience, blowing away Call of Duty in my humble opinion, and I am certain COD's Advanced Warfare and BLOPS 3 borrow heavily from it's ideas and gameplay. Titanfall still has a community and it's DLCs are all free, why not buy a cheap copy and do your own COD vs Titanfall comparison? I'm sure you'll agree.

    AS MANY REVIEWS BEFORE THIS, TITANFALL DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY STORY MODE, WHICH CAN BE GOOD PRACTICE BEFORE GOING ONLINE. ONLINE, EVEN IF IT IS ENTERTAINING, BECOMES VERY REPETATIVE AND LOOSES ITS APPEAL TO PLAY. FOR A SALE PRICE TAG OF $8, IT WAS A GOOD BUY.

    This is a blast to play with friends - and you can play for a short time and still have a lot of fun. ALL DLC is Free on the Xbox Live marketplace! I'm not normally very into 1st Person Shooters, but I love Destiny and this is great target practice while I'm waiting for Destiny - The Taken King to be released.

    I purchased this when I got my XBOX ONE and absolutely love it! Only two things I dislike about it are 1) it doesn't have a solo/co-op campaign and 2) it's online only, which means if you don't have an XBOX Live Gold subscription, it's a useless game. As a game itself however, I thoroughly enjoy playing it! Very fun and different FPS.

    Titanfall is the first really great online capable shooter for the Xbox One. Online play has been great. However, the fact that the campaign is online only and doesn't really present a back story leaves me wanting more. With a new game emerging, there should be some type of story to follow with the online and campaign.

    Not my favorite game, but does provide a good outlet when I want something different from my standard picks (Halo, Madden, NFS). Also - I got it on sale for almost nothing (flash sale). highly satisfied with the game for the price I paid, but left it at 4 stars just because it is not a "go to" game for me.

    This game is truly something different. It is like a mix between mirrors edge, call of duty, and mobile suit gundam. There are many elements that build this game into the spectacular it is. Firstly the gameplay, they break down the normal barriers of fps by allowing players to parkour throughout levels. This makes the level seem even larger than they are and make it so the maps never get old because even if you've played it there will always be parts you haven't explored. Then the Titan, this could almost be a game in itself with the amount of detail they put into it. The different guns and abilities adds different elements to the Titan fights. Along with other unique elements such as burn cards and unique game modes this is definetly one of the best games of 2014 so far.

    Titanfall is a great game for your PvP fix. It's lacking a traditional story mode, but most shooters are made for multiplayer fun anyways, and not much is more fun than stomping around in a Titan mech. The game has decreased in price so much now that it's a no-brainer if you are a late adopter of the Xbox One or a thrifty shopper.

    The only complaint I had with this title was not even the game's fault. Microsoft had account login issues that resulted in me not being able to play this game for over 24 hours after launch. Microsoft claims it wasn't from server overload or anything caused by Titanfall, but it seemed quite coincidental. Overall, the game is fantastic. I've been a long time fan of COD before another regurgitated multiplayer in Ghosts. Titanfall brings a refreshing game play where both beginners and experts can have fun. Because everyone gets a titan at some point, there is an opportunity to experience the high power weapons and perks that in COD was reserved only to those who get manage high killstreaks. Skill is still rewarded, though, with more titans.

    The game is a great sign of the future of the fps genre. It seamlessly incorporates the human fighting with mech fighting, making it feel like an epic encounter each time you enter battle. The way they set the campaign mode is also clever but can be frustrating: each level of the campaign is user vs user with ai troops on the battlefield. This makes each level a unique experience but you may find yourself repeating missions if there aren't enough players available to play the intended one, I have had moments where I played the same mission four times in a row until the group I was with stayed on for the following mission. It has it's links but what game doesn't? Overall it's certainly a five-star experience, and highly recommended.
