I just wanted to extend a heartfelt Thank You to Respawn for implementing not only single player, but a CAMPAIGN in Titanfall 2 (even better than I hoped for). One we could even play Offline! This is freaking spectacular. When Titanfall 1 was announced, I loved it's potential for the epic experience, lore-rich universe it consisted of, and it's unique versatile gameplay. But sadly, I ended up skipping out. For me, the total lack of options regarding single player/bot-play without dependence of randoms online was literally the only thing that kept me from buying it. I and several others voiced our concerns about this on Respawn forums & other sites at the time in the hopes it would lead to a more adaptable sequel. Not to hamper the experience of MP gamers at all, or even fundamentally change the game from it's intended purpose; but one with the choice of some kind of "bot" mode seen in plenty other titles (whether for practice, preference, or replayability), which could be played even after it's no longer the flavor of the month, in a game that already included AI. I'm still hoping there will be bot-only/private match setting in standard MP matches (i.e the mere option of one-man vs "grunt" bots instead of actually needing a bunch of players just to start it, or full PvE matches as you'd see in CoD, Killzone, etc). But so far, Titanfall 2 exceeded my expectations by including a Campaign. Look forward to playing it Day 1! So seriously, many thanks! Not many devs and/or publishers seem to care about single player/PvE lately, not even in franchises that always included it since their inception. Here's to Respawn and the possibility this brings for future titles. =)
Definitely agree that I'm happy with Respawn listening to their fans so much. Can't wait for more news to drop soon about Titanfall 2!
Counting on an "amazing" game dropping in 80 days. Thats just a guess...I swear I'm not counting days.
You are not the only one who really wants to be able to play Custom Games with AI Pilot Bots as well. It would add a whole lot more replayability to the game even years after it released!
