Titanfall: Why It Doesn't Have Single-Player

4.3
Titanfall doesn’t contain a single-player campaign because only a small percentage of players will finish the mode.

Speaking with GI International, Respawn studio head Vince Zampella said it takes a seperate team months to create such a campaign, and if no virtually one will finish it, there’s no point.

Plus, the studio is rather “small startup,” with only “60-some developers.

“We make these single-player missions that take up all the focus of the studio, that take a huge team six months to make, and players run through it in eight minutes,” said Zampella. “And how many people finish the single-player game? It’s a small percentage. It’s like, everyone plays through the first level, but 5% of people finish the game.

“Really, you split the team. They’re two different games. They’re balanced differently, they’re scoped differently. But people spend hundreds of hours in the multiplayer experience versus ‘as little time as possible rushing to the end’ [in single-player]. So why do all the resources go there?

“To us it made sense to put it here. Now everybody sees all those resources, and multiplayer is better. For us it made sense.”

Titanfall is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and Xbox One in early 2014.

If a campaign is good, players shouldn't blow through it in eight minutes. Halo has constantly provided me with at least 15+ hours of gameplay in the single player mode.

Defiance doesn't have a single player mode. Though it has somewhat of a story line, kind of like WoW with guns.

Battlefield 4 and this game will definitely give COD a run for their money.


your partly right it bf4 SHOULD **** on cod not titan fall though but there is always gonna be 2 year olds playing cod and of course you have mlg circuit which will also be staying a while


you kids are dumb, call of duty won't get "killed". They are coming out with there own game and it looks promising, just because you guys suck at cod, doesn't mean it sucks too, your just mad cause you get stomped on by players who have played and gotten good at it, so you jump on the band wagon of hating cod because you get trashed.

A large number of people don't bother with story modes of most games. I don't get how, I always play the single-player and that's what I judge most games on...
