From a company's perspective, why does it matter if an employee is staying up late working on a personal project or having sex? Every employee spends their personal time how they see fit -- working out, watching TV, browsing the internet, playing video games. Many on Polycount work on personal art when they get home; some…
dkk, this is the last i'm going to say of this. this is the third time you've confused my understanding of the producers with my understanding of the public. when i say "who can blame them," i'm referring to the producers, make sense? I can see how this is confusing language the first time, but you are failing to…
Man, signed up aaages ago, several times. And my friend who signed up two weeks ago got a beta invite, maaaaaaaaaaaaan. Ah well, I'll wait. Also why would they not invite people who have worked in the industry? or do you mean people who are currently working in it? I'm neither of which but the former makes no sense :P
This thread is a good example of why experience matters. If you're new to Polycount but your first reaction is to curse out, it means you haven't quite grasp how the forum works yet. Not that all new users are like this, but the ones who get weeded out quickly are those who don't realize the fragility of attacking other…

> This morning, I went to my website by using Google to search for "Creamy's Wonderland". I used to get only two hits from a search like this, both from my site. But this time, I got a third result, and when I clicked it just out of curiousity, it was another site that just happened to be called Creamy's Wonderland(…
it sounds like you're an ideas guy and in gamedev purely to make money, which is the no.1 reason why thousands of devs were laid off in recent years. Your plan is to go the path of Roblox; which has a predatory developer platform, but you also want to add gambling to the mix too. Add in some tasty developer drama to the…
You can make two things out of those statistics and they are that 1. GTA games are really cheap and easy to port, why would Rockstar else port them to the PC market if no one buys them? 2. The people in charge at Rockstar are complete morons who never learn anything. I mean why would they port GTA IV if the 3 other games…
It's lost because more people know about the workings of games. In the PS2 age, everyone heard the word "Multi Core" and went ape shit, with words like "Emotion Engine", and no one knew how games were made, they just thought of it as magic, especially with the younger generation they were aimed at. Now that people are more…
Some things you will learn are just total bonkers. "HEY GUIS, PEOPLE KEEP UAV SPAMMING WHAT CAN WE DO?" "OH I KNOW! LETS LOCK COUNTER UAV UNTIL LEVEL 34!!!" Shit like that. Or, how people used to grenade spam, so... They made Scavenger replenish both lethals AND none lethals. Seriously, earlier on I was spamming countless…
