    Users can't change thread titles. Which thread and why?

    Gawd, those are horrible looking suits. Makes me want to go back and watch Kamen Rider Den-O.

    I know the VFX shots are expensive, but the trailer needs less human, more King of Monsters.

    Regarding SEED, 00 is pretty good. S1 is really well done, animation-wise and story-wise. S2...they had to simplify the story and animation. S1 became too complicated for its own good.

    Do you have a budget? No OC? No video processing? No photo editing? Then the i5 will be more than enough. I'd stay away from the Z87 chipset if you are not planning on OCing or getting a non-K CPU, if you can help it (which will probably be no since many manufacturers are pushing the Z87 chipset). The non-K CPUs have Intel Virtualization Tech for Directed I/O, vPro which the Z87 doesn't support. The K-versions strip out those features but allows you to OC. The non-K versions have all those features, but locks down the CPU so you can't OC (you can OC, but it's a real PITA). You'll pay a premium for the Z87 but end up not being able to take advantage of it. A Q87 or H87 motherboard would be a better choice. If you want a Z87, I'd get a cheaper one than those, like the ASUS Z87-A or GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-D3H. Any after-market cooler will probably be better than the stock cooler.

    Stickers? If you want to match the gloss or dull clear coat; before. Otherwise, doesn't matter. Transfer decals? Always before the clear coat.

    4 years later...finally it's ending.

    Nope. Same time frame as the rest of the Marvel movies, only in space. No idea.
  12. azrael
    Me neither. Meh.

    That's if you get killed/respawn. I ran into more than a few instances where I was still alive and had my Titan ready for combat but I didn't call it down yet. Point-blank range with a rocket launcher..... I ran into a few instances where the grunts just stood there. I played a round where the other team was evac-ing and a grunt just stood there for a while until I killed it. I figured out how to change my loadouts in-round on my second play-through. But since the round moves fairly quickly, I found it easier to just pick my loadout and run with it all round. Yeah, I find the placement of ledges, signs and such very annoying when I'm trying to scale a building. And yes, bounce off opposing walls to scale a building if you can. Going straight up doesn't work as well. Especially, if you're like me and find yourself in a tight alley and need an exit. And I did see a few instances where a Titan dropped right on a heavily damaged Titan and killed it. There are a few instances where you see people dropping a Titan on other Titans, other players, etc. It's funny.

    I can test on my testing box but I suspect it would be fine. If anyone else has any Titanfall questions while the beta is still active, let me know.
  15. azrael
    Maybe. If you've played COD on the Xbox, then this is COD with mechs. As for your computer, these are the minimum specs: How old is your computer? And since it is due out for the Xbox 360, one could probably run it on low settings on PC and get away with it.
  16. azrael
    You can change some things about your character and Titan. The beta is limited to class/gender/loadout and model/loadout, respectively. The full game may open up more options. I don't recall seeing any options for colors, emblems, or that sorta thing.
  17. azrael
    For once...

    Trailer for FF XV:

    This may come when it actually releases but for the beta, it's matchmaking only.

    Did about an hour of Titanfall-beta gameplay. Attrition-game mode (TDM). General comments: -COD with mechs. -When you get your Titan, help the nearest friendly and do a 2v1 on the opponent. Your opponent will not stand a chance. -I can see how the Smart-pistol would need to be balanced. Of course the current trade-off is you need to get close. Acts like a normal pistol if you ADS (aim-down-sight). -In Epilogue, both sides get only 1 life. If your team won and you get killed trying to take down the transport, you will not respawn. Range weapons or Titans will probably be the kit of choice, unless you want to get up close. The good: -Plays SMOOTHLY. This beta actually works really well. Had negligible lag, zero dropped frames, unlike that other game which still has me rubberbanding even at 5 months old. Worked right out of the install. I'm still using the Geforce 332.21 drivers from January 7 and no problems. I'm sure there are bugs in there but I haven't run into any yet. I'm doing relatively High-settings and it plays well. -Mechs. They are pretty fun. But at the same time, don't just call down your Titan as soon as it's ready. All kits have anti-Titan weapons so don't be afraid to help out a friendly Titan from a good spot. I jumped onto a roof and assisted friendly Titans before I actually called down my Titan. Yes, you can crush opponents with a falling Titan. Haven't seen it yet, but it is possible. -Reasonable spawn points. The bad: -It's COD with mechs, so it plays VERY fast. -6v6. You play as 1 of the 6 pilots. The rest of the team are grunts. Yes, it's hard to distinguish the pilots and the grunts while running and gunning. You can go on massive killstreaks only to find out you only killed 1 or 2 pilots/real players while the rest were NPCs. I found that annoying. The NPCs do actually help out so they aren't useless. Would be nice if they could up it to 8v8 or 12v12, but that would cause too many problems. We're not going to get 64-player servers with the Titans, but I would like to play with more than 12 actual people. -Matchmaking servers. I really don't like match-making. -Can't change my kit mid-round. Or I haven't figured it out. There were times that I wanted to go with the carbine over the shotgun but I couldn't change my kit. I need to explore this. -Maps are small. Tight spaces that cater to infantry are abundant. The wide open spaces are usually areas you want to avoid as they'll have Titans fighting in 2 minutes after the round starts. There are areas you wish you could enter but can't because your Titan will not go through. -It would be nice to have a destructible environment. Oh well. So far, I'm impressed by this. It works pretty well for a beta. I'll do a few more rounds later.

    I didn't sign up until this week surprisingly. I didn't notice but they dropped the pre-order requirement for the PC-version. I may consider recording some beta gameplay but there are enough of those on Youtube right now.
  22. azrael
    I got my Titanfall beta key and will be doing a few rounds over the weekend if time permits.

    We knew MS was helpless. Just look at Windows Phone. As for the resolution...this article will probably explain some things.
  24. azrael
    No no no...G.O.A.T.

    It's responses like this which make me worry about Titanfall and its future under EA publishing. EA Defends BF 4, SimCity Launch Efforts, Discusses Future And videos of Titanfall-beta should be showing up. You can still join, but registration is filling up quickly. I do like the "Epilogue" feature. At least my round lost doesn't feel that bad, assuming I can haul-ass and get out of the combat zone.
