So origin has Titanfall up at sale at 50% discount.

I haven't played that game before, but I enjoy first person shooter multiplayer games. I read the reviews for the game and even though the critics have rated it on the higher level at around 8.5-9, the users believe that it is just above average.

Origin has also put Titanfall on a 48 hrs free play. But that would take days to download (my net connection) and I do not want to miss the great deal.

So folks, what are your thought about this game. Is it worth the buy?

Right Now there ain't many players on Titanfall Server, It would be hard to find any good server.
So, I don't think its gonna be good idea. And you said don't have fast net, so it will be hurdle in gameplay as it is multiplayer only.

I have decent net connection as far as online multiplayer goes. But if there are no servers then it'll be in vain.

If I am not wrong you have to download 48 GB before playing.

Around 50 GB yes. And would you look at that, the cost is down to rs 375. That is 75 percent discount.

But reading the user reviews and the comments here, I do not think I will buy this one.

The game is very good, but there are simply not enough players online.... the queue times are atrocious and playing without friends is not even half the fun it can be with friends

Game setup is around 21.6 Gb which expand to 50 GB . Only one mode attrition ( similar to Team deathmatch ) and one coop mode is active . All other mode are dead . There are around 1000 player total . So game is pretty much dead . But despite all that , i still play it and its one of the most fun MP game i have played .

So do you get servers with players and good ping? Where are the servers based? In battlefield 4, I get around 100-150 ping in all of south east asia countries, but around 170-200 on European servers. Being a dead game and all, rs 375 is a throwaway price. I can imagine people buying it just for the sake of deal.

As i said i can easily find players for TDM game modes . Pings are around 100-150 completely lagless . For rs 375 (one movie ticket ?) , this game is completely worth it .

Is it true that there's gonna be a titanfall 2 with lan support and all?

Last question : do you have the delux version. Because the DLCs EA gives on their games segregates the ones who can not/will not buy.

Very very unlikely, its EA we are talking about.. They will never release a game with LAN support now

Lack of content . Players got bored after 10-15 hour of MP .

the CONCEPT was awesome. but the company ruined it. EA games is failing so bad, is not even funny anymore.

I hope ubisoft and EA die in a fire. it'd be best for the entire gaming industry.

Another reason of EA games failing is bad pricing.

The micro-transaction in particular. The way they f**ked up the launch of Spore and Sim City with their always online system.
