The 2007 release of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare significantly altered the trajectory of the first-person shooter genre, revolutionizing multiplayer games by introducing now irrevocable standards such as perk and progression systems. In unleashing the groundbreaking experience, developer Infinity Ward turned Call of Duty into a household name, effectively setting the stage for its transition into one of entertainment’s most lucrative brands. But while publisher Activision’s golden goose reached for the stratosphere, a behind-the-scenes falling-out slowly begat a very public legal dispute. Infinity Ward’s ousted co-founders Jason West and Vince Zampella refused to sit idly by after their split from Activision, however, instead striking out on their own with dozens of Call of Duty veterans tagging along.
Respawn Entertainment came as the result of this exodus. And strategic deals with Electronic Arts and Microsoft allowed the studio of industry veterans to venture beyond their wheelhouse, specifically to a distant future ravaged by war, wars fought with wall-running pilots and battle tanks. Frenetic movement ruled the day in Titanfall, alongside the exoskeletons that players could summon mid-battle. Critics and players lauded the first game’s ingenious design, though its online-only accessibility left much to be desired for those who wanted more out of the futuristic world. A second entry righted the wrongs of its predecessor on multiple counts, yet an ill-timed launch window and issues with hackers stunted its potential.
The series more or less lives on in Respawn’s uber popular Apex Legends, but the battle royale lacks many of its forefather’s more enduring charms. Much to the chagrin of Titanfall faithful, any hope for the brand’s proper return never lingers for very long.
This is the rise and fall of Titanfall.

Every level is unique and you touch on every single mechanic in the game throughout and its paced arguably perfectly with phenomenal set pieces to match. BUT definitely isn't underrated. It is widely regarded as such by fans and critics alike its more so **underappreciated - and criminally so. WHERE IS TF3??? I miss BT :(

Its not suprise the other devs all left anf went back to Treyarch to make MW1 and MW2 remakes(the remakes of their own games from before being fired) Just check those games out compared to Apex and tell me which one feels more like you imagine titanfall 3 gunplay would have progressed to...

    Oh man, this one really hits me hard. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in multiplayer-only Titanfall on PC back when it first released. I remember my laptop barely able to run it until after an upgrade, but the moment I did they released the Frontier Defense mode and I poured majority of my time there than the competitive multiplayer modes. Titanfall 2 finally gave me the campaign I've been longing for, thankfully replayable and does well to teach newcomers the mechanics and movements in preparation for multiplayer. My only big gripe was when embarking on your Titan it would shift the camera to third-person; which isn't as immersive as the first game's fluidity in maintaining a first-person view from being on-foot and into a Titan. Overall though, I absolutely LOVE this franchise and really hope it would come back one day. I still have Titanfall 2's Marauder Edition helmet just sitting there on my shelf :')

    Titanfall is where the real legends were made. The first game basically dominated my entire 2014, and the sequel had probably one of the greatest FPS campaigns I've ever played. If I could choose to do anything from the past decade, it would probably be to go back and experience Titanfall again for the first time. I felt something I'd never felt playing a shooter before, both games had more heart to them than a majority of the shooters we have today, and for that it will always hold a place in my heart.

    @@bruhtholemew you say it like there will be someone from the Apex team working on it besides the Art Direction guy(the literal only Titanfall 1 or 2 dev still working on a Titanfall property) It most likely wont even have him. Or it will be him working with the team who is making it. 10 of the original 12 devs are back at Treyarch and have been since Respawn sold to EA. Treyarch hired them back when they decided to remake their Previous COD games MW1 and 2. As they were Treyarchs best games before. And the remakes have become Treyarchs best games SINCE the team left/were fired and became Respawn.

    Like the Art guy and the owner and reason for Respawns history of issue aee all that remains. And whilst the art guys was probably the most talented one there. He isnt what made the games good MW1 and 2 remakes are an examole of that IMO. And whilst theya rent perfect. They are BOTH 100% progress the genre further than Apex does. Hell play the 6 month old game of the year Apex Mobile. It dwarfs original Apex Legends. Purely because it has its own set of devs with freedom to take the game where it wants. We would have a better shot if they make the 3rd game

    This is devastating. TF2 is phenomenal. I thought that APEX really killed the franchise, but they obviously have enough staff to make other games, i.e. Jedi. Jedi is fine, but nowhere near as fun and replayable as Titanfall. Plus, the fact that respawn has distanced themselves from both games because of hackers making them completely unplayable. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Nevermind that you guys are always honest, upfront and measured in the way you present your case. An island of calm in a chaotic information overload sea. Please keep up the good work. And I agree, 'Titanfall 2' was one of the best games I ever played. I can't count the number of times I played the multiplayer or went back through the single player story. Absolutely one of my favorites.

    1 of the 12 people who worked on titanfall 1 and 2 are gone. Most of them work for Treyaech on Cod Modern Wafare 1 and 2 remakes. Thats why those games got good again. Sad to say it. If Titanfall 3 does get made. I doubt the existing dev would have what it takes to do Titanfall 3 any justice.

    The main dev and owner still exists but even when the team was together he was the guy who was basically responsible for the instability at the board level of the company. Hes the reason the whole team got fired from Activision. Hes the reason the company aold to EA and he is the reason the other 10 devs left and went back to the company that had fired them

    I didn't own an Xbox One when Titanfall came out so I didn't play it on release. I was talking with friends and joked about how Titanfall was a dead game since it was pushed hard early on but then I heard nothing about it. Around when Titanfall 2 was announced they had a free weekend to play Titanfall and I figured I'd play and see how it really was. After 6 hours straight playing I called up my friends and complained to them that they didn't tell me this was one of the best first person shooters ever made. Bought Titanfall 2 day one and last I recall I was a 35th gen pilot

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game that, despite all the odds, became such a beloved icon for a specific sub-genre of gaming as Titanfall 2. It was a sequel to Titanfall, which had garnered mixed reviews. It was almost destined to be dead on release due to contending with two heavy weight series, one of which was literally from the same publisher. And lastly, hackers DDOS’d the multiplayer to near-death. And yet, this game continues to live on through word-of-mouth. It not only redeemed the Titanfall series and Respawn Entertainment, it redefined what a smooth movement shooter should feel like: fine-tuned to near-perfection, nothing less. Titanfall 2 is quite the unique phenomenon, eh?
