    #DOAG . Death of a Game is a series dedicated to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the death of a game or company. nerdSlayer defines the term "death" in the context of the show as either... 1. Literally dead. 2. Had a mass exodus of players and never recovered (expectations etc). 3. The company ceased to exist. We follow a timeline of events, to uncover clues concerning why a game or company doesn't do well, and attempt to put it all together at the end for a deduction explaining how or why the game failed based on the evidence gathered.
    Rules:
    1: No discrimination or hate speech.
    2: No affiliation links that do not belong to nerdSlayer.
    3: No political/religious talk or debate .
    4: Any points you make have to be substantiated either in explaining your opinion or when stating facts you need to back these up with reliable sources.
    5: Do not argue moderation decisions in public, if you have an issue PM the mods.
    6: We don't allow self promotion, giveaways or anything of similar nature from community members on this discord without nerdSlayer's permission.
    7: Wherever possible if you initiate a discussion try to do so in an appropriate channel for it. For example game news could go in ⁠game-table a story on the latest EVE heist however would belong in ⁠mmo-booth or the latest GPU shortage can go in ⁠tech-wizards
    8: Spoilers have to be marked at all times as a spoiler by using /spoiler or || before and after the message. Beside this outside of the spoiler you should make clear ahead of it what the spoiler is about, like the latest chapter in a video game or something.
    9: Please do not @ mention any of the staff or in general abuse @ mentions. People will respond on their own accord when needed and when they desire to do so. (Exception for moderators if their presence is needed for enforcement)

    I just had an amazing discussion with a prominent TF2 member, who was able to calmy and rationally argue their perspective, and listen to mine on Discord chat. I have a lot of respect for you Ricky, thanks for stopping by and being able to chat. You can raise issues with my videos and my analysis, but it has to be framed in the context of MY series and WHY I make it in the first place. I realize when you get brigaded elsewhere, many of those aren't viewers so they miss that...but start by reading the description lads!
    Literally dead was never the only thing I based my series on, and it's not the only definition of dead anyway. I wasn't just sad or negative in this video either, I still hope and wish for more Titanfall, even if it means mixed into something else (another game). Something I also could have acknowledged (read the room), is that Titanfall 2 had a opposite trajectory where it did better pop wise almost later, than it did at launch (which is very unique). As well that the Xbox servers for TF1 never got fucked up by the hackers, so they were really happy about their experience there.
    Also you can absolutely play both Titanfall's on official servers atm, however TF1 is basically dead population wise (except Xbox, which is hard to access as I state in the video). And Titanfall 2 on official, is actually populated enough to get some matches (depending on your region), but don't expect anything besides Attrition (as I also stated).

      1. Literally dead.

      2. Had a mass exodus of players and never recovered (expectations etc).
      -The player base is still large and are very active on the game that is still active.

    Please please please do your research before making one of these. Titanfall 2 servers are fully online with little to no issues, and a daily average of 2000, 1500, and 800 players across Steam, Xbox, and PS, respectively.
    People saying "well the game is dead and unplayable" because they don't realize it's been fixed are a large part of the reason the game is declining. Because people only ever see clickbait "oh Titanfall is dead" videos like this, and rarely that the game is still up and running.

Apex is worth way more than whatever money EA put into the Titanfall IP, multiple times.

    I think it's important to note that the launch date for Titanfall 2 wasn't just stuck really close to BF1. It was also flanked on the other side by Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare, a game that shared a lot more similarities in design and appearance to TF2 than BF1 ever did. Respawn/EA doing almost zero marketing for the game and then shoving it out between the 2 biggest shooters of the year guaranteed that TF2 wasn't going to sell. No amount of better gameplay was going to save it at that point.
    edit: The game isn't at all dead btw. very active playerbase on Titanfall 2 to this day, and the servers have been fixed and working fine for a while now. Don't let this guy's inability to admit he's wrong sway you; TF|2 doesn't belong on this channel by his own definition.

    Current ways to still play Titanfall
    TF1:
    - xbox one is your best option. You can buy and disc version. There's lobbies in attrition and sometimes in last titan standing and frontier defense.
    - PC is barely playable on attrition, but THE SERVERS HAVE BEEN FIXED FOR +3 YEARS. The issue is, to download the free DLC maps (they were made free in late 2015) you need the deluxe edition for some reason.
    - xbox 360 is basically dead, but the community does play sessions every few days. You can only buy this game on the disc version.
    - There's a client for PC in development, but its taking its time and won't probably release ever tbh
    TF2:
    -every version is FULLY PLAYABLE. There are almost no hackers and NO SERVER ISSUES.
    -PS4 is the least populated version. It has around 400-800 players connected. Its enough to play most gamemodes in peak times.
    -xbox one and vanilla PC have around 1.5-2k players each. With enough patience you can play every single gamemode at any time.
    -NORTHSTAR CLIENT HAS 15-30 PLAYERS. ONLY USE NORTHSTAR FOR MODS

    For anyone wondering, like nerd slayer mentioned, YOU CAN PLAY TITANFALL 2, the vanilla servers still work apparently, although I would recommend to download the Northstar client if you're on PC since it has a lot more features than what vanilla provides (since they are community servers, and don't rely on official ones, if the official servers ever get ddos-ed again or straight up shut down you will still be able to play on Northstar servers). You still need to buy/have the base game to Northstar though.
    Edit: I see people are pointing out that the vanilla servers have been working fine nowadays. I haven't played Titanfall 2 in a few months and even that was on the Northstar servers but either way, I think the client makes the multiplayer more fun and customizable.

      Titanfall 2's vanilla multiplayer is working perfectly fine for the most part, and has been for a decent amount of time.
      Northstar is still cool to use though if you want community servers or just an easier time using client-side mods.
      Titanfall 1 is also technically playable, its only issues are no players and arguably unsecure servers. Also if you didn't already own it, you'll have to get a key for it, specifically one that includes all the dlc maps if you wanna be able to play with others at all. If you get a group together you can easily play though.

I'm here just to say the game is still pretty active and it's still pretty popular, it's not what it used to be no, but it's still really popular and people still talk about both games. Like you said in the video especially on PC there is such a mod support for the game if it ever is to shut down there is a really good end of life cycle prepared for that. For anyone else wondering you can boot up the game right now play it and have fun with people and it's not that expensive so I do highly recommend the game.

TF2's player numbers as a niche game with a dedictaed fanbase is amazing, and it's really cool to see it still so beloved by core group of fans to this day. A game doesn't need to have 100,000+ players to still be considered active.

    I still can play titanfall 1, it’s mostly populated on Xbox one servers only and you can only find games on attrition, though if you don’t have a disk you have to try your luck finding a code online. 360 servers are mostly dead with a small group only playing. PC isn’t as populated as Xbox is but you still can get attrition matches.
    Titanfall 2 just recently had a few issues with servers (small hicccups) but the game and its modes are mostly playable. Play station has a low player count with Xbox having the highest. PC vanilla servers are in the middle of both, northstar client that has the lowest player count. Less than 50 iirc. Anyways you can all still play the games but who knows how much longer they may be up.

And the servers worked fine even before 2023, but you could randomly be kicked while in the multiplayer menu and people in the main clan named ADV that everyone is put in by default would usually have their games crash. I remember i found this out by moving to ADV a little and then i had to go through a few crashes to select another clan. But that doesn't happen anymore, neither the kicks from the multiplayer menu. I mean, the game is pretty much fine, what is to be expected from an old one... there are usually no hackers in EU and when they are it's the same one or two on pilot vs pilot so the sucker wouldn't die to titans.

    It's people like you that make people not want to try the games in the first place. The servers are fixed and have been fixed on all platforms(for titanfall 2, just to make that clear). The fact that you're going out of your way to try and shut those people down that are saying that you're wrong(because you are) is frankly a not very cash money move. Take criticism with stride or you're just going to get more backlash.
    (Also, it aint dead. Theres still a steady playerbase. Yes it is minimal compared to "alive" games, but its still alive. You really can't say otherwise since your second rule of a game being classified as dead indicates that there must be a mass exodus of players that never recovered even though it did for titanfall 2. Admittedly, I cant say anything about titanfall 1 since I don’t have the means to play it, but I know that people still play it. A game isn't dead unless it isn't being played.)

Also tf do you mean by "death" doesn't mean death?

    @HomelessCows Місяць тому +6

    The game is still very much alive, and has a consistent player base of around 2000 players on steam, and that's not including origin which isn't tracked on steam charts. This player base has stayed extremely consistent since Titanfall 2 releasing on steam in 2020 with periodic surges during steam sales. People have obviously moved on to other games the past 8 years since Titanfall 2 released, and the fact it's managed to maintain a consistent amount of players for the latter half of that time is a testament that the game is maintaining players and replacing ones that leave, therefore it's not dead and never had a mass exodus it didn't recover from.
    I can agree that Titanfall 2 is dead in the sense that it's just on life support, living off the hope that Respawn will pay attention to it again someday. It will inevitably lose all of its players some day, but so will every game that hits a decade since it released and only received one year of extra content. But in the sense of "can you currently find matches on Titanfall 2 in a reasonable time?", yes you can. Attrition will get you matches in a couple seconds, but you can relatively easily find a match in any game mode with a 3-5 minute wait.
    The fair consensus to make is whether or not Titanfall 2 is dead is purely semantic and left to how you want to define dead. By your own qualifiers in the description, which are admittedly a little too vague, the game is not dead. By the standards of Titanfall's active community, the game is not yet considered dead and is fairly playable across all platforms, though Xbox and Playstation are anecdotal and there's no real statistic to verify that in the same way steam charts does. If we define dead as in abandoned by the devs, then yes, the game is dead.

    I think this goes to show that, just because you have all the praises, awards, and accolades, doesn't mean your game would be a memorable gem that would be played for many years to come.
    Look at Team Fortress 2. No matter what, it's still going strong today. All by the community and the company.

      And like the REAL TF2 was for a long time (not anymore, the official and unofficial servers work fine today) Team Fortress is overrun with bots.

    I used to play Apex Legends, in hopes that it’s success would lead to another Titanfall.
    5 years later: I stopped playing Apex Legends a year ago, Respawn cancelled a Titanfall game and there’s no hope for a new game in the series.

    good vid! only thing i found wrong was the thing about the servers. the vanilla servers are fine, and you wont have a problem getting into a match. NorthStar has 100 players at a time, and is only good for mods now ): . but, I'm guessing that you made this script a bit ago, as the servers only came back last year. other than that though, was pretty good!

      I genuinely don't care about nicety, I care about peoples ability to argue and pick apart my arguments...none of that was actually done. Please take the nicety policing somewhere else, it has nothing to do with me, my channel, or even my rules. It seems after 2 years you just learned I am a human being who doesn't have much respect for willful ignorance, which means you never knew much about me in the first place mate.

    As much as it hurts not to have Titanfall 3, I'm also glad it's not going to release in the current times. It's just going to be another shooter primarily focused on how to fill the game to Brim with Mtx, battlepasses. Less focus on story/what made people love TF2 would just be ignored
