Theme and specs were fine but it was maybe a bit too much work for only one person. Some friends of mine didn't enter for this reason. I was not really aiming to finish, because it's summer time :P As for the softwares restrictions, I like the idea of presenting final assets into the same engine for everyone but I think…
Now that the submission deadline for Petrol/Blood has passed, we want to ask the community at large for feedback on the contest. We're very curious to know your thoughts on a variety of subjects such as: * If you entered but didn't finish, what was the primary reason? * If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the…
If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the reason? I was waiting for this contest since the idea was thrown out several years ago. I know exactly what I was waiting to make. Unfortunately it came during my move to Brazil or I would have entered. I would have had my employees enter too but it came at a bad time…
If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the reason? I'm more environment focused and while I might have tried my hand at a vehicle the character requirement threw me off. Also the aspect of people teaming up is great to try alleviate scope of the task, but the task should be something reasonable enough that one…
If you entered but didn't finish, what was the primary reason? - Too little time for me to finish at the quality I would want to. Not interested in compromising on quality and personal targets to push something out in time, and no time to do a "crunch" for the finish either. How did you feel about the deadline? - Tight but…
If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the reason? Scope of the contest didn't seem feasible for me considering what I wanted to create and working full-time, family, etc. This was billed as a new-gen quality contest which excited me a lot, but also seemed really crazy when you consider how long that stuff takes…
If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the reason? Prizes are not worth it for me. Required someone else to make a character wouldn't have the time to do both. It seems like they are always these fucking huge projects with (besides bragging rights if you win) not worth the effort. With that said I want to do the…
How did you feel about the deadline? Have to say the deadline was pretty rough, for the scope of the contest it was a tad short IMO. Technical specs (textures, polys) too restrictive, not restrictive enough? It's not restrictive enough, would be cool if there was a poly limit. Unlimited polys feels like people can just…
If you entered but didn't finish, what was the primary reason? How did you feel about the deadline? How did you feel about the scope of the contest? Too much work in too short of a deadline for the work required. I felt the scope was too broad. The theme was okay, but having to do a Full Character and an entire vehicle in…
If you entered but didn't finish, what was the primary reason? The subject matter was not one that interested me too much. This is not really a problem with the contest but with my personal likes and dislikes it should be noted. How did you feel about the deadline? It seemed to be tight lots of entries seemed to have been…
