Titanfall- the most anticipated First Person Shooter
Come March 2014, gamers would finally get to try perhaps the most anticipated FPS title of 2014- Titanfall. Titanfall is set to take the First Person Shooting genre to new heights of gameplay mechanics involving teamwork and co-op play. Titanfall shall be a title exclusive to the Microsoft Xbox 360, Xbox One and The PC. The game sadly gives the Playstation platform a complete miss. Gamers can buy Titanfall, buy playstation 3 and ps3 games online when it is released in India through online stores. This article shall briefly look into all the new things and promising aspects of Titanfall and its gameplay.
Yes, Titanfall shall be a multiplayer only game. This means that you would need an internet connection and required to be connected to the online servers of Titanfall to be able to play. This is done simply to enable the gamers to fully enjoy the central theme of its gameplay mechanics- its teamwork and co-op play. Not having a single player story mission does not mean that there is no story or character progression. Titanfall combines the unique features and plus-points of single player gameplay seamlessly into its multiplayer environment. Developers Respawn Entertainment have incorporated single player gaming elements like "scale, verticality, and story" into its multiplayer campaign. There is a compelling storyline that is conveyed to the players through non-playable characters and cut scenes as introduction and epilogues to the multiplayer missions. So even when you are playing online and participating in different battles, there are elements like character progression, story development and the sense of fulfilment that comes along with such campaigns. This makes Titanfall a completely first-of-its kind experience in a multiplayer only title.
In Titanfall the players can participate either as free running pilots or as Titans. The titans are giant mechanical walking war machines that are operated by a pilot. Pilots on foot are agile and can even run on walls like those in Prince of Persia and do double jumps. You as the gamer have an option of either playing as a soldier for Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC) or the Militia.
Titanfall is perhaps the most teamwork intensive game ever. As many as 12 human players can take part in one mission. 3 types of Titans are known- Atlas, Ogre and Stryder. The teams have to kill the opponents by tactical use of Titans that are available for limited use. The pilots on foot can ride on the Titans and a pilot on a critically damaged Titan can eject from it and participate in the battle as a foot soldier. The Titans are needed to be employed wisely and at the right time to ensure success in the battle.
Respawn cites the movie Blade Runner as an inspiration for its world design and Abrams Battle Tank for simulation of battle and warfare tactics. Titanfall is eagerly awaited worldwide. However the wait in India may be a little longer for those who want to play it on next-gen consoles as Xbox One is yet to be released. Till then one can buy PS3 in India and buy PS3 games.
