@DeadEcho82 Let's assume for a moment that all the good stuff about Titanfall 1 and 2 are merged with Apex Legends, but that the modes available in TF1&2 will be available in AL as they are (that is non-BR), what would your opinion be on that? Both games under the same name, different game modes that cater to different audience members. Yay or nay?
@ICA_CourierLast time I gave Apex another chance was when that 3on3 Arena mode came out. And honestly, it just felt half-assed without TF2's movement + Titans and I asked myself why I even waste my time playing it when I can just start TF2. Apex' netcode and performance also felt pretty bad compared to TF2. I experienced lots of disconnects, no regs and slomo matches, things I never had in TF2 (before the DDOS attacks). They would have to do much more than just copy & paste TF2 into AL.
But if they really did all that, leaving all the qualities of TF2 intact, the playerbase would be ultimately fragmented and people might pump less money into the f2p model. The 2 games would probably compete against each other more than they ever did. And we're still talking about the same Respawn Entertainment that was for a long time too afraid to put duo and solo queues into Apex and had timed game modes in TF2... so yeah... if my wildest fever dreams came true and I somehow managed to put my grudge against Respawn/EA aside, I might even give such a version of AL another chance...
Realistically speaking: Never.
- 4 years ago@DeadEcho82 That closing line nailed it. It won't happen, but I would be down for a large scale Titanfall (with titans, wallruns, jump packs, and all the mayhem), even it it was Battle Royale-ish. Not a big fan of the whole last-man-standing thing, but multiple teams having at it simultaneously would be crazy cool in a Titanfall setting. If they eren't so hellbent om making easy money they could probably pull it off too - and set new industry standards while doing so.
