Hey guys, just in case some of you don't know, you can apply to get into the Titanfall beta going on right now here: http://www.titanfall.com/uk/beta
I don't know if it's still happening but they sent out some Xbox1 codes to people who applied for PC by accident (me being one of the recipients).
If this does happen you can get it sorted pretty quickly through EA support, the process of which is explained here: http://help.ea.com/en/article/titanfall-beta-code-platform-issue-and-workaround/
I've played it myself (got to the beta level cap of 14) and I'm gladly, NOT disappointed as I was a bit sceptical. The infantry movement and gun handling reminds me a lot of COD4 and MW2 and the titans control a little bit like Hawken, but faster. It's pretty intense, hectic and fast paced. I was expecting a lot of the game to feel gimmicky but the parkour is actually pretty fun and fluid, and the titans are satisfying to use without being overpowered. I'm a bit disappointed that it uses that bloody lobby matchmaking system, but from what I can tell it uses some of Microsoft's dedicated servers because I haven't noticed any lag so far.
To sum it all up, I wasn't so sure before, but now I think I'll be getting this one.
Be sure to check it out.
