Re: When did you start applying for game industry jobs?
@AGoodFella, In my experience, humans are emotionally driven, mostly unaware of their own driving factors, and usually unreliable. To make matters worse, given the tiniest degree of power over others, they become real monsters. And like others mentioned, moment to moment factors like fatigue and boredom play huge roles in… -
Re: Starbreeze's Syndicate reboot FPS
Syndicate wasn't only about Isometric gameplay as much as people like to claim that. What made it stand out was the core gameplay and foundation and the way it played out. Problem is, if a developers tries, they could very easily make Syndicate into an FPS, but still make it stand out (after all, you're simply changing the… -
Re: $100,000,000.00
Verm, by the same token it should allow them to research and sponsor more inventive type games with these obvious cash cows. Hollywood does this. Spore being one though even thats more a evolution than a revolution. Spore being the only one I can think EA doing, and thats only because of the developers previous history.… -
Re: Non Funded Indie Developer. What do I ask?
[ QUOTE ] They claim to be almost finished with their first project and are ramping up for their second with a custom dx9 engine they built themselves. [/ QUOTE ] Unless the tech side knows their shit inside and out I'd be very nervous about an inhouse engine. Games are getting complex enough that it's making more and more… -
Re: [WIP] Church Diorama
Hi everyone. I'm in need of some suggestions, I kind of finished my decals, vertex painted everything and done my first lighting pass for my night time scene. What do you guys think, what should I tweak (if any) or should I highlight anything else? I also added some "narrative" with the book left behind, and tried to… -
Re: APB is the greatest game ever!
I have to agree with Noel. I love the game, it's great, but it's flaws are numerous and game play lacking in any serious depth. There doesn't seem to be a real drive to get people into clans and actually respond to back up etc. This game feels like a beta right now. I'll still be playing and paying though. Hopefully they… -
Re: Are more 4K textures being used in games now?
Heya, Just because "4K" (meaning 4096*4096 really) is a thing doesn't mean that using "4K textures" is necessarily enough to carry something like a full character on screen. If anything, conservative/old school techniques consisting of splitting sheets logically and tightly is very much current and will not become… -
Re: WTF Happened to our Beloved Greentooth?!
I always thought the green-tooth smiley was pretty generic so I don't understand how anyone could actually believe it's stolen. It's sorta like laying claim to an original stick-figure design. -
Transformers: The Concepts and Engineering behind
Im trying to design a vehicle for a mod that has two "form factors". Kinda having a hard time visualizing start to finish. Anyone know or have experience on how a toy is designed from going to a to b? Do they start out with 2 totally different ideas, and then combine them? Or do they have a more "central" idea. This isn't… -
Re: Should I buy Fallout3 or FarCry2
I'm not sure which I like more - playing FO3 or watching the Brominator lay the smack down :D I have to say that I am completely and totally hooked on FO3. In a strange way, it's almost relaxing - wandering the environment however I like and just soaking in the atmosphere. I can't say FO3 is better or worse than FO1 and 2;…
