After playing a few hours over the weekend, I find the game graphics to be perfectly fine. What I found interesting was that attempting to play Campaign mode resulted in zero matches (no available players or something similar it kept saying). Which I take to mean either there was an actual problem with campaign mode matchmaking or that everyone on x360 is just playing Classic mode. (I could get into Classic mode lobbies quickly enough, but it would just sit on the Campaign mode screen forever I assume... Longest I let it go was twenty minutes while I was puttering around in the other room.) Other problem was getting into lobbies where the opposing team was steamrolling my team and the matchmaking kept the winning team grouped every match while my team constantly had dropouts due to said steamrolling (both in Hardpoint and Attrition). I admit I got frustrated after several hours and put my Ghosts disc back in.

I admit I got frustrated after several hours and put my Ghosts disc back in. Regarding matchmaking, check out denkirson.proboards.com/thread/7053/titanfall-matchmaking-news-discussions . The basic idea is that if you are assigned to a team that lost badly, you need to switch lobby immediately. After doing this for a few games, you should be able to land on a strong team, in which case you should stay put until the team disintegrates. On XONE: The skill based matchmaking they implemented did make things significantly better. They had to dial it down due to complaints about difficulty of finding games (which I never had a problem with), but from my point of view it seems to still work reasonably well for Attrition.

Thanks witty- I'll have more time this weekend to play and will try out the lobby jumping technique.

I had absolutely no problem with finding matches in campain mode. Sure, I got set back ~ 3-4 maps allot of the time (it didn't find a game fast enough for the map I was exactly), but it always gave me a game within 3 minutes of searching. I live in Europe, so that will probably limit my matchmaking further. (asuming you live in the US)

Played a good amount over the weekend (had 4 days off work), up to level 32 or so. - Witty's lobby hopping techniques worked well for me. Won some, lost some, having a good time. Campaign mode matchmaking is still hit or miss. -Sometimes I will get a full team right away along with an opposing team and the match will start. About half the time, I think there just aren't enough players in campaign mode and I will get only one or two teammates and no opposing team-- or I'll get on a full team, but it will just keep searching for an opposing team and say that there are zero matches available. So, I'm slowly grinding my way through the Campaign in between Classic play so I can eventually get my other Titan chassis unlocked. :-)

So it's good on the 360? Might get it in the near future may be.

And receiving new burn cards all the time helps to keep it interesting.
