Titanfall on the Xbox 360 - The Impossible Port 

Apex still runs on that heavily modified source today - it even had some of the bunny hopping accidental mechanics in it!

And the source engine can trace its routes to the quake engine.

you know it is source from the close captions alone 😅

@@XanthosAcanthus You mean gold source .

@@KurianfromIndia no, I said traces it's routes.

I still don’t understand why IW/Treyarch started putting out such bad PC ports when Steam was starting to blow up in popularity. The ports for previous games were somewhat barebones but man the ones from the 2010s were starting to diminish

@@5persondude It's because they weren't done in house. They were outsourced with tight deadlines. The story of pretty much every bad PC port. Combine that with their primary focus being console, PC was seen as a platform for piracy and an afterthought.

BO3 on Xbox 360 is dogshit but that was Activision studio "Beenox". Not Bluepoint.

Bo3 as a whole is shit. It was garbage and could not live up to the first two cod black ops games.

@@mr_indie_fan it's a game I can respect for not playing it safe. But condemn for being too risky.

Takes the term "impossible port" to a whole new level! 🤯

I was wondering about that. Had a good laugh.

i was wondering if i read that wrong 😅

@@MrKrewie You did read it wrong- because who reads the description!? /joke

haha i just noticed that too

100% agree

Titanfall 1 was very good. Never played 2. But COD 3 copied the wall running.

Apex Legends is Titanfall without the wallrunning.

@@EmergencyChannel it really isn’t, few of the characters actually feel like pilots, and there’s obviously no titans

Titanfall 3, built on modern tech, would be absolutely amazing.

It uses the same engine as its predecessor and roughly looks the same. There is nothing that makes it more marvelous than it's predecessor that also run on Xbox 360. Or are suddenly all cross gen games a technical marvel, even if they are based on previous games running on the same hardware? Is Assassin's Creed: Black Flag on Xbox 360 for example also a technical marvel in your book?

@@cellspeed8682 your comments on this video sound like you have no idea what you're talking about lol

Forza horizon 2 also

@@cellspeed8682 yes it is.

U are so god damn right this game looked amazing on the 360.

nothing wrong with that

I didn’t even know this was by Bluepoint. Those guys are fucking magicians.

Now if only they understood art direction

@@samsniper2000 demon souls looks amazing on ps5, but ill play the og version over it no question. so much more character and atmosphere

Bluepoint really are the modern Factor 5.

Oh my what did I win!?!?…🙄

Same

Titanfall 2 is pretty playable right now. I haven't encountered anybody that I thought was a hacker since I started playing the multiplayer a few months ago

TF2 works again :)

I often wonder what fun do hackers find in cheating in online games? Isn’t it way more fun to play a fair normal match?

Just a heads up mp hacks and matchmaking have been fixed for both games on Xbox at least. major resurgence happening now!

It's going good so far. TF2 is just fine now. I just downloaded it... it was on the PS4 store for discount of $5 these days. I bought the "ultimate edition" or whatever just because I was so pumped to play the game lol. You don't really need to buy the extra feature stuff though. Kinda wish I would've only spent $5, I could probs level my way up just fine without the extra stuff. Anyways, I got into the game just in time too, because I guess the devs (or some mysterious employee) has been updating the game again and apparently now the servers are super stable with new game modes released and working now. I guess it hasn't been playable for a long time because of server issues. It's working so nicely now! No hackers that I can tell! Some people are REALLY good, but as a new player I'm learning how to play better everyday and every single match is a total blast. 10/10. Honestly, this game takes the cake over CoD no joke... and I see why it's so good now... because it was made by the CoD OG's. Didn't even know that. No wonder. Anyways, jump on it again friend! It's totally worth it... best multiplayer FPS I've played thus far. :D

The new order had really impressive optimization even on pc, played through it on intel hd 4000 graphics and it was completely playable

id software were always tech wizards even if they don't hit the mark (id tech 5 had issue with high end hardware last I heard)

@@Bazzokapho Older versions of Id Tech have issues on modern high end PC hardware. Quake 4 on PC basically requires a mod to run otherwise you get massive stuttering issues - their support for multi-core CPUs seems like it was tacked on last minute. I think they targeted it for crappy Pentium 4s running at 3.6Ghz when the PC market was shifting to 2Ghz Core Duo chips.

Id tech 5 in general was really impressive, but only if you played on lower end hardware. It's an odd case of higher end hardware holding it back because it's focus on mega textures were optimized for 360 and PS3 in mind, not PC.

That and the port of Rise of the Tomb Raider on 360, if he hasn't already done it. Never got a PS3 release, but the developer really did the impossible and ported it from Xbox One/PS4 to the then 10 yrs old Xbox 360. Absolutely mind blowing! Kinda reminds me of what's currently happening to 8th gen. Still blows my mind I'm going to actually play God of War Ragnarok on my fricking PS4!

Mine too, still pissed

@@hunterdavis3003 Hell, that was the 3rd one that broke for me and I was just done. I was so turned off by it all I went back to my ps3 for a few more years.

That's how it already worked in Source, the claim that it was dynamic is false (maybe they changed it to dynamic in the Xbox One TitanFall branch and they mean they reverted it?). Even Quake, which Source has roots in, used this method.

Quake was sexy

That doesn't sound wild to me at all. That sounds extremely reasonable and has been done even on the PS1 (crash bandicoot). Other engines use this too.

​@@npc_blob1609Yeah VIS calculates this on map compilation

@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen I discovered from another video that Crash levels is just 2d streaming from disc like RE2. WHY

A big draw for CoD back then was the performance for sure, most other contemporaries hardly ran at a locked 30 on consoles.

I wouldn't call barely being above the 360 version well optimized

COD is still shit tho

I agree for the most part, but Black Ops Cold War's PC port is putrid.

Black ops 3 on 360 was done shitty to boost Xbox One sales.

Titanfall 1 multiplayer is better imo. I felt like there was more skill in using the titans, having the recharging shield didn't limit your time in the titan

@@camw6519 i agree. Titanfall 1 multiplayer felt like an actual future warzone.

And now all we have is Apex. No more mechs. :(

@@SmaMan I never played it because I know how those games can be. I really don't get how Titanfall didn't become bigger. Maybe I'm just old school but the first one's simplicity with a lower number of weapons, gear and mechs was nice. Also both games not having 500,000 ways to monetize you was also nice

@@Snotnarok I can understand if battle royale isn't your cup of tea, but they added a round based 3v3 elimination mode not that long ago. It's not "traditional" multiplayer, but it might scratch that fast paced titanfall itch.

Got 1200hrs

@@AceHernandz I don't have that much lol

I put in SO many hours into this 360 version. I literally played 200-300 hours or something. I was obsessed.

@@AceHernandz Jesus Christ. I can safely say I’ve never played any game that much… I don’t think. I played a lot of games in the early 90s and we didn’t have time trackers back then.

@@AceHernandz Do you need a life coach?? Or three cheers?

Bluepoint is incredible I could imagine it could be above 60fps if they optimize it for Xbox one

Call of duty mw2 has 120hz on the series x i know they could do that easy

​@Odinarcade00 thats because the series x is super powerful, we're talking about 120 on an xbox one

@@caboose9843 Xbox one have good graphics engine, so if they implement something like Vulkan or DX12 for Xone it would run smooth

Do any Xbox One games on the Xbox One run in 120 fps? I don’t think so.

You never played Team Fortress 2?

Titanfall 2 really blew it out of the water. Amazing singleplayer

You can still play Titanfall 2. It's supported on SeriesX|S & GamePass. (& on PC too obviously.) I still play it like once a week. There's still enough players in the lobby. Just make sure you join the Advocate network. That's where all the players are.

Titanfall 2 is amazing. I don't know why it wasn't more popular.

Never played TF2? guess you don't like hats

Cool comment bro i can relate

you know like half the enemies were bots lmfao

@@TheAbbeyoftheEveryman i have a feeling you were so bad that YOU thought the bots were players and are so dumb that you assume everyone else also made this assumption at some point

plus hardware is so standardised now that consoles are basically just small PCs now. the ps3 era was the last hurrah for wacky, unique hardware

Imagine if CD Projekt RED did the same with Cyberpunk 2077 and just handed the XOne/PS4 version to a developer and said "Here, downport this."

yes..i went months with only having like assassins creed 4 to play, lmao. i saved up only for what i could get, i.e. the xbox and one game :):

I feel you! I've got a huge backlog of games from PS3 to PS5, including PS Vita. I can't imagine getting to play them all. Gaming was so much fun back in the day with no responsibilities. Now, it's hard to play without having real life stuff coming to mind and stressing me out while playing, not to mention having a short attention span.

In other words a great demake .

Yeah, if only their port of Forza Horizon 4 was as good💀

Panic Button ports have nowhere near the same level of optimisation and custom-tailoring to hardware. Their way of working is: lower everything as much as you need to hit 30 fps, give the game a wide dynamic resolution scaling window to clean-up the framerate and ship it. It became obvious when Panic Button weren't up to the task of porting Doom Eternal to Switch, even though they were working on it in parallel to id software, who handled other versions internally. As a result, the Switch release must have been delayed and id software needed to send their people over to Panic Button to help the studio finishing the game - they were not able to do so on their own. I do not really know why people hold their work in such high regard. Their only impressive project was bringing Rocket League to Switch an that's only because it uses UE3, which doesn't support Switch hardware natively. Apex Legends plays bad on Switch, the game isn't pushing any limits in terms of technological complexity, but they made it a choppy, blurry mess. Wolfenstein: Youngblood is atrocious. Warframe is awful. Doom and Wolfenstein TNC are only passable. Bluepoint are artists, Panic Button's work is cheap and nasty in comparison.

Rewriting engine components is not even "remade the entire engine", let alone "remade the entire GAME".

And how.was it? Tell some stories. Focus groups liked the 360 version?

@@karlimo4034 It was on a PC before the Xbone was ever announced. It had a generic source title screen which I thought was really cool. It had a Titan hanger.

@@karlimo4034 I also heard Blueprint QA didn't realize you could Wallrun and double jump.

I wish Nintendo would commission Bluepoint to do some remakes. Can you imagine?

@@leeartlee915 That would be brilliant! I think Bluepoint could nail a reimagining of Bahamut Lagoon.

I think Apex Legends is still also running on the same engine.

I enjoyed the campaign and multiplayer in Titanfall 2 on PS4 last year. It's the most fun I had had in a long time while playing an FPS game.

Completed both versions of FH2 and I can say that the 360 version was not good. Looked worse than the original Horizon somehow, and had many collision glitches in which your car would crash with invisible bumps and walls in the middle of the road.

@@Pedro_The_Neco I aware of these issues, since it was a rushed project handled to Sumo Digital. I think they used the Motorsport 4 engine because the handling in both games were similar.

Team Fortress 2?

@@Mr.Atari2600 theyre talking about titanfall

@@funnycat306 No, I'm pretty sure they're talking about Team Fortress. I would like Team Fortress 2 on Switch as well.

@@Mr.Atari2600 Why would they be asking for Team Fortress in the comment section of a video about Titanfall?

@@funnycat306 This is not Titanfall sir, this is a Team Fortress comment section of a video about Team Fortress.

Titanfall 2 by a long shot

Titanfall maps were better IMO. Glad they kept 5 (War Games, Colony, Relic, Rise, Angel City) but the others from the first game just felt larger, even on the old 360 hardware
