Respawn Entertainment’s Titanfall is out now and garnering rave reviews but the game isn’t without its complaints. One of the bigger issues still carries over from the beta, namely the AI soldiers and robotic Spectres that fight alongside the player.

So what’s the problem? Apparently, there isn’t much use to the process of hacking Spectres and making them fight for you. It’s incredibly subjective though – one player on Respawn’s official forums outlined a way to use the Spectres to sneak up on an opponent.

The developer responded that, “We are looking into making the spectre hacking better.” So whatever criticisms remain from not being able to effectively hack or utilize the robots will apparently be addressed soon enough.

Titanfall is currently available on Xbox One and PC, and will launch on March 25th/28th for Xbox 360 courtesy Bluepoint Games. How are you finding the game thus far? Let us know in the comments.
