Every multiplayer game has those few online modes that lack player-interest. Whether it’s Deathmatch, King of the Hill, Capture the Flag or FFA, players will always have a favorite mode to play…and a least-favorite at the opposite end. According to a recent Tweet from the developer of Titanfall’s PC version, Respawn Entertainment will be relocating a few of Titanfall’s least-played modes away from public matches.
Those of you who have logged into the PC version over the course of this weekend may have noticed that the public library of modes was looking a little slim. Last Friday, Respawn Entertainment posted a Tweet stating that both Capture the Flag (CTF) and Pilot Hunter have both been removed from public play. Both modes are still within Titanfall, but can only be played within Private Matches and Variety Playlists. As of right now, the public multiplayer listings only show Attrition, Last Titan Standing, Hardpoint, Variety Pack, Expedition Variety Pack, and Expedition Attrition as the available modes.
While this change may come as a disappointment to some, Respawn’s Tweet states that they will “tweak lists as we add maps & modes”:
PC: we're removing CTF & Pilot Hunter but they'll be playable in Private Matches and Variety. We'll tweak lists as we add maps & modes.
