slum- exactly my thoughts. i was a big big et fan , hardcored more than 1 year prob. i didnt like it first too , game mechanics are way too different than ET and i generally hate multiplayer games with vehicles ( battlefield etc). but after first 15 min , i get my lovely sniper rifle with 15- fps & 150+ ping........ man…
I installed it yesterday and I actually lost 5lbs over night. I also woke up to look in the mirror this morning to discover all signs of aging gone. And that is just the beginning my friends, since installing yesterday afternoon my penis has grown 3 inches!!! I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would have a 4 inch…
Hey there. Your reel should be around 1 - 2 minutes in length, no longer. It should consist of your absolute best animation work. Your chances of landing a job depends on the studio's you're applying for. Your chances increase significantly if you send your reel to a lot of different studios. Send them to places where you…
i don't know where this idea of me saying 'more pay > enjoyable job' came from... I agree, any job that you hate is useless even if you bring home massive salaries. I was just saying there is still a lot of money to be made after Justin suggested he had 'dodged a bullet'. You can have both you know, I'm sure there are…
Vehicles: centaur tank from Gears 2. The shader supported snow & mud buildup on the wheels that never made it in. Truck you ride in during a mission in Gears 3, and in a few cinematics around Anvil's Gate. Submarine, used to travel to . This thing is massive in game, uvs were spread out across 4 materials. Sub pods the…
The world is always like this I think. imho 90% of any given genre or medium is trash. I'm ok with that, it lets the true gems really stand out. I don't care how many battleships or transformers they come out with. As long as I get to go see my Dark knight rises, The hobbit, Inception and other amazing films. I wont be…
It looks like fun, I enjoyed the first one. I don't need realism, to have fun, I'm fine with it looking cartoony, I love moonbase commander and the graphics on that are horrible. As long as StarCraft2 is fun and not just a 3D update I'm sure I'll like it. I think SouL is right on the money about Blizzard appealing to the…
I never got to play coop either, but I think Crackdown was one of the sandboxiest sandboxes I've ever got to mess around in, and I LOVED it for that. The actual game was a bit too repetitive, not much content in the way of weapons and missions and bad guys... But the environment was so beautiful and so fun to hop around…
While the source artwork was awesome (concepts/highpoly etc) the game itself entirely failed to hold my attention. Felt quite slow and clunky, although co-op was fun for a while. I originally got it on 360 and didn't get further than a few levels in, then I got the PC version hoping I'd enjoy it more since I'm not much of…
It is an ambitious project to be sure. Our last project (Weapons Factory Arena for Quake 3) had a popular lifespan of about 3 years and Quake 2 WF lasted about 4 years. It very unlikely that we will have unique assets for each and every weapon during our initial releases. Over time though, anything is possible. Weapons…
