Titanfall PC experiencing 'unexpected downtime'

The PC version of Titanfall is currently experiencing "unexpected downtime", EA has confirmed.

In an update on its support site, EA wrote: "Titanfall is currently experiencing connection problems, which means you may not be able to connect to online play, or even might get dropped from an online match you're currently playing.

"Rest assured that we're addressing this problem and will provide updates as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience."

Yeah. But I am sure some elitist will come along to tell me how I need to educate myself on how PC's work. Some people really believe they have some blessing from the gods which gives the superior insight.

I thought it was obvious to everyone, no matter what you decide to game on, that it would be a lot simpler to get a game running with fewer errors on a uniform platform than one with complex variables.

I know this is EA's issue and not the PC. But I said earlier that the X1 version would have fewer issues and got called all types of things.

I hope they can resolve this soon.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
