TitanFall

Who made it into the beta and what platform? I got it on PC.

(Me being Awesome)

Got it on PC.

Note to self: don't play with randoms.

I haven't had any trouble with randoms.

If anyone remembers Broken Line Studios, this video reminded me of that for some reason.

I just got it on the Xbox One. It's actually a lot fun, but I get a feeling that the rather-seamless gameplay came at the cost of a campaign in order to rush the game for the next-gen console launch.

Probably because Titanfall was basically what we were planning for Project Aftermath, if only we'd actually had an idea of how to go about it.

Very likely. I think the developers said they'd work on that next.

Wait really? As DLC or as another game?

There really was next to know concrete idea as to how to implement the massive campaigns Velo had planned. He wrote a books worth about 3 whole installments, made a shitfuckbus of models but I never saw anything in game. Had any of you even decided on an engine?

The whole thing was basically one huge story of how America sucks and gets wiped off the planet so everyone else could pretend we were never there in the first place...from what I remember xD

Yeah, we were going for the CryENGINE.

America sucks because both the Democrat's worst fears (Warmongering fascist president, peak oil) and the Republican's worst fears (UN occupation, nuclear terr'ist attacks) come true. It was political satire written by an idiot 18-year old me.

For some reason I remembered Velo writing it. And holy shit...Were you really 18? I must have been like 5, you old bastard. I remember much of it following WWII, but with mechs and stuff. I found it to be an interesting read and you should post it if you can dig it up out of the abandoned catacombs of the internet.

Did you actually have anything in game though?

nothing ingame, I think velo might have tried importing a model into some RTS game at some point. but those models were very much not optimized for a game engine, and didnt have any rigs or anything to animate or any textures... so it would have just been a still model of game-crashing complexity and polycount sliding around with no animation. haha

Sounds like early HHF lol. Speaking of which, I'm amazed to see that all these years later it still won't fucking die, and is thriving.

Come to think of it, I was seventeen.

And I don't have anything from the old days, but I remember most of it. If I wrote up an overview, would you guys be interested in reading it?

Of course! I miss the BLS Party Hard Robot. I keep looking for it online but never find it.

its on my photobucket

Mine's bigger, LP.
