As the title says, I have an Xbox One and think its a great piece of kit.

I was excited about Titanfall but after the beta I felt it was just lacking some substance.

Battlefield 4 for all it's previous faults just seems to offer so much more due to squads, multiple classes plus a large mix of vehicles.

At the moment I just don't feel the need for another FPS in my life.

Tell me I'm wrong, am I the only one thinking this way?

Yea I'm thinking the same.

I downloaded it and only played 2 games, but the fact that it was only 6v6 humans had already put me off before I played it.

It looks and plays good but I can't see any longevity in the game, and like you say BF4 is all you need, I can't go from 64 player to 12!!

I also can't see it appealing to players who like skill based play and obsess over stats and K/D, BF and COD you can run around and get the jump on people and kill them first. With Titanfall in the titans its just a matter of who is getting the most rockets fired at them.

I won't, have thief to complete and with the dlc for battlefield coming soon I'll be back on there trying to complete assignments.

Titanfall was interesting for all of 1 day IMO once the gimmick of the titans wore off it was just another run of the mill shooter

As Titanfall is developed by Infinity Ward aka Respawn it's no surprise that the game is being reviewed as a COD game with Mecs and similar games types to all the main FPS games that have recently dominated the market. Could it turn out to be a case of "The Emperor's New Clothes?"

No Titanfall for me - but then I was never really into multi-player shoot'em ups and of the ones I've bought I've only played the offline single-player story modes.

After...

losing my Career game 5 times
Always dashboarding
Guns are terribly unbalanced
Maps are not that great
Stupid Premium pack that stops vanilla users joining friends
Class setups resetting
Dumbing down of Anti air

...Battlefail 4 is getting traded for Titanfall. Initially I hated it. But after getting dragged in by friends to play it suddenly felt awesome and had many a happy hour. No more vehicle wes, no more campers, no more level 80 guys with best guns destroying you when you start the game. BF series has always had issues...and I have now vowed NEVER to by a DICE game again.

Good to know I'm not the only one. I do enjoy BF4 despite its faults but do miss games with great storylines and plots that just engross you.
There seems to be a real lack of these games lately. The games industry has gotten lazy it seems.

Yes Destiny looks very good, from the makers of Halo I'm expecting great things.

I was disappointed to find out this is an online multiplayer game only! No solo campaign which could have been awesome.

And, oh dear....

<------ BF4 player on the xbox 360, don't have ANY of the issues you have, at all. I don't do single player so can't comment on that, but the rest hasn't happened to me...
