Titanfall

I believe Titanfall and Titanfall 2 are source engine games. However, are they built off Source 1 or 2? Oldag07 (talk) 00:56, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

I think Titanfall 1 and 2 should still be added, I mean you could argue that the source engine was modified so much it is no longer a source game, I could as well modify other engines as well and I think it is still a game based on that engine so they should be in here ArythNeon (talk) 13:31, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

There's actually a lot of evidence to back this up. When I was experimenting with Titanfall 2's files, I managed to delete "materials/console/r2_background01_widescreen", resulting in a classic Source engine error screen. Other points of evidence include:

Titanfall 2 having the Source-exclusive version of the checkerboard, noclip, cl_showpos, showfps, and most other Source commands. (Can't run d1_trainstation_02 though >:( ) Averycoolusernamethatservesbasicallynopurpose (talk) 02:09, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

I think we're missing the important question - how do RSes refer to the engine? It's not up to us to decide what counts as "still technically the source engine". The way I see it, we could end up adding to the list as we would any other Source game, we could do that but have some disclaimer that it's modified, or fully exclude it from the list. 9yz (talk) 19:35, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

Sources clearly note how they use a derivative of the engine. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 18:52, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

@Oldag07 Titanfall Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends do indeed all run on a very heavily modified versions of Source 1

I found out about this source engine arcade game made by Taito a few years after they worked on Half-Life 2 Survivor. It's obscure enough outside of Japan that i couldn't find a wikipedia page or any mention of it on Valve's developer wiki. I don't know much about it other than Zuntata did music for it (their in-house band). I also found some footage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP1-IUFhTLw MegaKid64 (talk) 21:27, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

• Everyone? If so then this post should see overwhelming support. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 12:09, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, this is a duplicate of another post. 2600:8800:2080:182:D039:19D2:F8CE:23D4 (talk) 19:24, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
