If you're planning to go digital for Titanfall, then here's your confirmation that you can pre-load Titanfall so that you can play right at midnight. I saw this image floating around Twitter, and it also confirms that the game's download size will be roughly 16GB. Excited? UPDATE: IGN reported a couple hours ago that the offer to pre-load will NOT be available to pre-load anymore. This is what the article said on IGN: Check out the full article here: http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/02/21/pre-load-titanfall-on-xbox-one-with-digital-purchase
If I was on the xbox, I would for sure preorder it off the store to preload. That's pretty excited news!
Gratz to our XB1 gamers, is this the first pre-load ever for consoles? Sorry I don't keep up with much console news, I thought I read something about Titanfall might be the first preload ever but it has been awhile.
Something is fishy about that image. First of all, I can't find that information anywhere on Xbox.com and 16GB is definitely too small. The 2 map beta was nearly 5GB. I can't see how the final would be any less than 25GB.
I'm calling fake for sure. Another thing I just noticed is the "12:01 PST on the release date in your country." First of all, PST would be Pacific Standard Time. If anything it would just say at "12:01 local time" since the Xbox servers can release stuff regionally based on your time zone.
It was reported that in the beta some were able to detect a code that showed other maps were actually in the beta but just turned off. We have three weeks left Respawn and microsoft will be happy to give of the details of this first time ever 'pre-load' when it becomes availbale. I cant wait ツ
This is not fake... here is the xbox.com link. https://store.xbox.com/en-CA/Xbox-O...ab7-49f9-9ec6-0aa4c1686efe#gameDetailsSection
Put it in code there GMet and it will work. Code: https://store.xbox.com/en-CA/Xbox-One/Games/Titanfall/8ef9f044-dab7-49f9-9ec6-0aa4c1686efe#gameDetailsSection
You've got to remember though that the game is running on the Source engine. Overall the game itself is going to be pretty small compared to other games on the market solely for that fact. Also, that there isn't a true "single-player" campain. 16GB is pretty believable. 2 maps, all video/audio content, assets/textures, weapons, etc. equaled up to less than 5GB's. So with some more weapons and about 12 more maps, that doesn't seem too ridiculous.
"12:01 PST on the release date in your country" might mean that it won't be switched "on" until the 12:01 PST equivalent in other regions. So, they could be basing it off of PST for regions outside of North America.
Ok, wow, I stand corrected, but when I go to Xbox.com on my own, I can still not find that anywhere. Strange.
Going digital from now on. Easy, no lines, sleep, wasted gas, disk to worry about. Older I get, the easier I want it
Update, MS is saying it was error and you won't be able to do this. My bet is they're not ready to announce and negotiations are still going on with EA and Respawn.
