Hello, After releasing a couple of simple 2D adventure games, by working on my own I really want to move on and work on something more advance. I am pretty skilled in working on UDK, got a degree in design and I know a thing or 2 about modelling (really bad at code, thou). The main thing is - I really would like to team up…
Since the R9800 and R9500 falis in my machine (Athlon 950), I'll get a "budget" card in the $40 range, because I know those'll work in this crap machine I have. Unfortunately there's only two, and they both suck: Powercolor ATI Radeon 9250 128mb $38 The 9250 only has DX8 support, and everyone talks about radeons having…
Really, what the hell are you supposed to look for? I've been invited to sit on the jury for the BAFTA (british acadamy of film & television) videogame award for artistic achievement, and I'm totally lost (this is either really good, or really, really bad). It brings up a lot of very interesting questions that I'm not…
for me the art is a vehicle towards a goal. I enjoy art while I'm doing it, but each thing I make is viewed not as an individual thing but it's just a step I have to do towards larger goals. A larger goal might be something like: get a job at X studio, master some unfamiliar style, make an animated short video...just…
Very rough concept for the Desert Eagle "Warpstalker", intended as another entry for the CS:GO competition, the antithesis of the "Void Hawk"; drawing inspiration from early John Blanche (Warhammer 40K), Metal Hurlant/Heavy Metal/White Dwarf magazines and 80s B-Movies involving murderous cyborgs, the grungy colour scheme…
Hey Praetus, it wasn't a bad idea. I think it was a bad idea for me, post something like this in this time of year... I believe guys here are busy taking care of xmas and new year holidays. I think for a lot of Polycounters, this is one of few periods in the whole year to relax and enjoy family, or at least to do nothing.…
You have an unfinished env in there..icky. I agree with what other people are saying about improving what you have up there now. But one gripe I have with your portfolio is that its just...forgettable. Not to say the quality is necessarily bad on anything, its really not...but nothing resonates with me after seeing your…
In regards to the demo: not played it but seen it and seen a lot people fight the iron giant. But the general attitude seems to be: FPS is horrendous and image quality is really bad at times. Also they seem to have dialed down texture res and mesh quality quite a bit (maybe for download size reasons?). The FPS issue is…
By the way, can anyone confirm that WoW had a really bad launch in 2004? I think I heared that on a podcast or some place ages ago. I mean compared to the other launches it was like really bad or something, right? What do people think about crafting in mmo's? What proportion of the game needs to be dedicated to crafting to…
Not a bad start, but you've gone too wide, I don't see the inner step on the drawing for the inner pool, it'll be stronger being more like the drawing. (Shows you can stick to direction/concept). Hard to tell from the drawing, but if the trim on the wall matched the trim on the ball shapes, it'll look better. (Looks bad…
