Titanfall 2's Open Beta Isn't Coming To PC
Titanfall 2 is quickly hurtling towards us, with a supposed open beta incoming for the title. This will allow Respawn Entertainment to test their servers and the game in an open place, while giving gamers a taste of what the game is like
However, if you are exclusively a PC player, I have some bad news for you. In a blog post, founder of the developer Vince Zampella said that the beta will only be open to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players. He explains that the PC version just isn't ready yet, and that the inherent complications with the platform will mean it misses the upcoming test.
However, he also said that he is worried about single player leaks if the beta went up on the platform, since references would likely be left in the code of the test, ready to be datamined. He said:
Also, because the single player story has some wonderful secrets that we really want to preserve for launch, we also have to worry about leaks. Our wonderfully curious PC players have proven in the past that they will dig out anything they can, and there's a risk that they could spoil some of our single player.
That is a total shame, and I'd love to see the game running on a powerful PC, but I can at least see where the developer is coming from, even if I don't love it.
