Worth a Buy claim Titanfall 2 SP is as good as Half life.

[B-Cell_v1legacy]

Well from a guy who hate many console shooters. giving thumbs down to every game and recently gears of war 4. He there claim its one of the best SP FPS ever. and claim its nothing like COD and more like Half life.

However He hate its MP and call it wallhacks. He further said game is worth for SP alone.

well if thats the case than i guess i will buy it soon to see what the fuss is all about.

I just posted my (spoiler free) thoughts on it a couple threads down if you want to take a gander.

I never really got on the Half-life wagon, so can't say much to that comparison. Its comparing two different games really that definitely have varying strengths. Crysis was the main thing that came to mind though that may have been the mobility and having a cloak. Bioshock a bit, particularly with Star weapons and some of the Titan "powers" that resemble Plasmids/Vigors.

I can't say I'd recommend buying it for the SP alone. Its a 5 hourish campaign without much exploration (there's collectables, but I think they just give you credits for loadouts in MP) to it, and maybe a few alternate dialogue options. And some sort of Mastery achievement on the levels that I'm not sure what it entails. Some choices to be made in weapon variety, but a fair number of spots where you have to roll with what has ammo available because of the two-weapon limit.

I replayed Call of Duty 2 this week, after like ten years. ADS was more fun back in the WWII games, when the guns were bolt action and semi-auto.

COD2 was not even that good. it was the game that introduce regen health. COD1 was much better. and beside this game is made by developers of COD1 and 2. I prefer MOH allied assault. that game has no iron sights.

i do agree ironsights dont need in fast paced shooters like this.

Half-Life...1? Cause that game as a shooter is outdated as hell. Hell, HL2 isnt a great shooter either. Sounds like this guy just hates FPS.

Apparently you didnt get the message in the last thread.

THIS MAN IS AN IDIOT HACK. STOP LINKING HIS REVIEWS. HIS OPINIONS ARE WORTHLESS.

My friend, he is one of the best reviewer (even if some reviews i dont agree with him). He is only guy who have guts to speak against xray vision and see through walls.

Bleh. I saw the first twenty minutes and it looked like every other first person shooter campaign released for a multiplayer focused game. I feel like since the earlier Halo games, FSPs just stopped trying if they thought they had a multiplayer mode they felt they could fall back on.

what about Doom? its one of the best SP of FPS in decade.

Read what I said. It looked like every other first person shooter campaign released for a multiplayer focused game. How many people are still playing Doom's shit multiplayer game? And even then, while I liked Doom, it wasn't flawless. The combat was a lot of fun, but it seriously needed to stop and take a breath.

I like WAB. The guy shares many of my concerns and annoyances with games, so his opinion is worth something to me.

I have the game. I've done about an hour in SP, and been enjoying it. They nailed the movement and the weapons are very satisfying. I haven't completed it, so that's a pretty incomplete evaluation, but it definitely feels good.

Been enjoying multi-player much more than I thought I would. It's basically dumb fun. That wall-hack feature is annoying (do please stop doing this, devs) but there's lots of fun to be had with the other weapons. The ninja-star that starts fires is probably my favourite. It's ace for taking down the grunt hordes for some easy Titan-charging.

That IS NOT what he said.

"Not since Half Life and Half Life 2 have I enjoyed myself so much in a campaign."

That does not mean he's saying it's as good as Half Life. That does not mean he's saying it's like Half Life. He's saying he enjoyed it as much as Half Life. HE ENJOYED IT.

That is certainly an important distinction.

Since Half life 2. we did witness some of the best FPS games like STALKER, Crysis, Metro (both) and most recently Doom. I doubt titanfall 2 come close to them.

Is that the same guy who said that mafia 3 is much better than mafia 2?

Half-Life...1? Cause that game as a shooter is outdated as hell. Hell, HL2 isnt a great shooter either. Sounds like this guy just hates FPS.

I was actually just about to say this. At the time they were ground breaking. Nowadays they're barely playable. I didn't get around to either of them until Portal 2 came out and I simply was not impressed.

Half-Life 2 is a 4/5 game, easily. Much more stimulating than modern FPS campaigns. It's not nostalgia. I played a few years after it came out and can still replay it now. Half-Life 1 didn't impress me, though. I played it for two hours.

Half Life 1 was more pioneering in the idea and presentation of a story in an FPS. Which its still pretty mediocre by todays standards.

But prior to that you mostly had maybe a beginning and ending cutscene (none of the in-engine environmental events) establishing why some variety of very angry dude was in a place mowing down hordes of mooks on his way to face a boss who may or may not have had any characterization to them.

Although it was more of a general evolution of games around the time as technology started to support that sort of idea. Half Life just happened to be the lucky one that got chosen by the masses to be held up as the poster child (for PC anyways, Metal Gear Solid was more or less in the same position for the consoles at the same time).

Oh dear. This turned ugly. Time to post, and to get you to all look upon the kitty cat:

THIS MAN IS AN IDIOT HACK. STOP LINKING HIS REVIEWS. HIS OPINIONS ARE WORTHLESS.

As much as I dislike his style of reviews, I wouldn't go so far as to call the opinions worthless, or to call him an idiot. I feel that his style of reviewing is trying too hard to be "edgy," and that's what's more annoying than anything else to me.

Wait, what? What the heck is wrong with those abilities?

what about Doom? its one of the best SP of FPS in decade.

I'll agree to disagree there. While I've had some fun with it, so far, Doom 2016 has been mostly "meh" for me. It's certainly a break from recent singleplayer design, but it's repetitive, the story is bleh, and if anything, I find myself missing Doom 3.

How many people are still playing Doom's shit multiplayer game? And even then, while I liked Doom, it wasn't flawless. The combat was a lot of fun, but it seriously needed to stop and take a breath.

Raises hand gingerly...

In fairness though, the multiplayer isn't that spectacular either. It's fine, it can be enjoyable, it's given me a love-hate relationship with its loadout system, it feels like an inferior version of Halo 5's multiplayer, but with some nice Doom touches (e.g. demons).

First off, I am not your fucking friend. I actually kind of hate you.

The kitty cat, Gundam! Look at the kitty cat!

Half-Life 2 is a 4/5 game, easily. Much more stimulating than modern FPS campaigns.

I'd give it more a 3/5 really, same as Doom 2016 right now. In hindsight, I can appreciate what Half-Life 2 pioneered, but I find a lot of it hit and miss, ranging from its gameplay (urban combat on one hand, tedious platforming on the other) to its characters (some I loved, some I wanted to just shut up), to its story (more interesting for its delivery than its content).
