Respawn Attacks Titanfall Bribery Claims [Feb 20, 2014, 09:19 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A
post on NeoGAF from Respawn Entertainment's Drew McCoy reacts to conspiracy
theories suggesting that Titanfall's positive reception is the result of
them bribing corrupt game journalists to favor the mech shooter (thanks
OXM via
VG247). Here's what he had to say:
Anyone who thinks we weren't living in the shadow of decade+ old established franchises at our reveal at E3 are as crazy as their conspiracy theories of anyone getting paid off. We've had to fight tooth and nail to have a game that anyone would even know existed, let alone be excited for and want to create coverage of. I get it that its not for everyone, but to say we're paying anyone off is downright insanity. Not to mention the height of insulting.

They also ripped the 'other team won but you can escape so you dont feel bad about losing maybe!' shit straight from BF2142. In fact this whole game is pretty much a miasma of derivative nerdisms.
Which is fine with me, IF it's good.
Unfortunately, they said they'd do an open PC beta, but they never did.
Yes they did. I played it. I saw the posts here about how it wasn't going open, and I figured that must be due to the website being mostly broken at the time. I read those posts in between rounds of the open PC beta.
You didn't need a key or anything, just like SpectralMeat said. It just showed up in my Origin menu one day. I'm sincerely sorry you missed it, it kicked ass.
