Over the last two days of playing the Titanfall Beta, I cannot count the number of times I have been disconnected from a game or been faced with the keyboard-smashingly infuriating "retrying connection to server" display. Annoying though it is, it's to be expected given that we're playing a Beta, and the developers made it very clear that they wanted to "stress test" their servers. The problem with making the Beta open was that they certainly did test this, though at the expense of being able to try out the game properly. It's demoralising being excited to start a game, only for server issues to stop you from playing every 3-5 seconds. As such, it's probably best to expect the full game to have its share of server problems for the first few days. It probably won't be on the level of GTA V's week-long debacle, but I might wait until the Monday morning after release to buy the game, to avoid spending my weekend rage quitting it.
