Respawn denies claims they\u2019ve \u201cabandoned\u201d Titanfall due to Apex Legends focus Respawn EntertainmentJason Garza, a developer at Respawn Entertainment, has moved to shut down claims that the company has \u201cabandoned\u201d Titanfall to focus more on Apex Legends, after a hacker raised awareness for the growing \u2018Save Titanfall\u2019 campaign. On July 4, Respawn rushed out an Apex Legends update after a hacker launched a DDoS attack and sprinkled a series of messages in the client that lead players to a website called \u2018Save Titanfall.\u2019 The premise of the campaign is simple. They want Respawn to deal with the hackers running rampant in Titanfall, claiming it\u2019s \u201ccompletely unplayable\u201d despite still being sold today. Ryan Rigney, the Director of Communications at Respawn, slammed the hacker for \u201cruining a holiday\u201d and said they \u201cachieved nothing of value.\u201d However, it did raise awareness to the point where players started asking Respawn whether they\u2019d abandoned the game. Jason Garza, the Community Coordinator at Respawn, recently took on some questions about the state of the game. He revealed that only one or two members are still working on it but insisted that it hasn\u2019t been \u201cabandoned.\u201d \u201cWe\u2019re working on it,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Titanfall community is not forgotten or abandoned or anything like that. We\u2019re still working on it, it\u2019s just we can\u2019t telegraph our moves, and we only have like one or two people on it because everybody else is on Apex.\u201d He reiterated that it is \u201csomething we do work on\u201d but insisted that these things take time. \u201cYou can\u2019t just press a button, and everything\u2019s fixed magically,\u201d he said. Titanfall fans aren\u2019t convinced, though. The consensus is that having one or two people working on the game while the rest of the team are devoted to Apex Legends practically is abandonment, at least in their view. \u201cOh my god! The janitor and phone call assistant are working on Titanfall!\u201d joked one fan. \u201cI\u2019d rather you just admit that you\u2019ve abandoned Titanfall,\u201d wrote another.

But, more importantly, hackers are still running rampant, which is the marrow of the issue; fans want it to be resolved once and for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
