Mamoulian War

you are missing a lot

looks the milking beat the horse machine is working here aswell...

The most interesting quote from there... And nowhere mentioned if you are forced to be online to play singleplayer scenarios... *thinks* well if they copy RA3 you'll be forced to be online the ENTIRE time you're playing it. oh yeah... *moves to another thread, nothing to see here anymore*

Mythic will help out with SW:TOR http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/bioware-...p-star-wars-mmo hopefuly not as they did help themselves with WAR

Yes

if you missed it Witcher patch 1.5 just got released http://www.thewitcher.com/community/

The experience with RPGs in general and games like NWN2 helps a lot... There is big difference when I play the games, and my sister plays them... she is much into RPGs but she plays only 1-2 games per year and even if i roll her powerful main character, she has more troubles than me with pure Roleplay characters without exceptional stats or powerbuilds...

With DA nothing, with EG.net credibility a lot

Oh yeah Eurogamer... after their fiasco on Darkfall review i rather avoid that site... full story about it (Darkfall developer's PoV on it) http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=185060

i would recommend you at least for this estate either picking up healing henchman or buy tons of potions... myself i found it very difficult to play any CRPG without healer...

Fate of atlantis is worth getting excited over, the rest... eh. They didn't really pick and choose the cream of the crop (The tim schafer and monkey island catalogues are suspiciously missing...) Maybe they no longer hold the rights to them...

you can spin it how much you want Stealing a game is not the same as Downloading a game nor the same as Releasing the game them as your own (aka your plagiarism) If their gonna Dowload it, they gonna break the Copyrights owner Right to make copies of the product... aka they will infringe on their COPY RIGHT!!! Correct terms should be used...

He told they were going to steal the game... that would mean the codex guys decided to go into some shop and rob all the shelves dry... Stealing a game != Infringing on the copyright of the game owner... that's a fact, so don't try to be a smartass...

Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe 2

Stealing = removing the item from rightful owners ownership Infringing = breaching copyright of rightful owners intelectual property two very different things

From what I gather on Codex they plan on infringing it, not buying it a soon as possible Fixed for you...

Of course, and when they prioritize money (sell as much as possible) over the art itself (make the best thing ever!), they hereby sell out. This !!!

the new 3D engine... their 3D stuff made zillion times bigger money for iD than selling all of the Quake and Doom merchandise combined...

I wonder why that happened? *points at evul EA* Are you kidding? Mythic missed deadline after deadline on WAR. If you go into work and start a 3 year project, and it gets stretched into a 5 year project, you have messed up and you are lucky you don't get fired. I'm surprised how much time they were actually given on the game. Maybe it's because the 3 year deadline was an impossible goal to meet? I worked as programmer (not as a game programmer though) for some time, and i would say, that of all the projects I worked on, only 3 had realistic deadlines... everything else was plain impossible to offer the demanded product on time... so some content had to be cut... after some while, i just said the money i got, was not worth the stress and overtimes i had to pull for my employer and at the end almost always me and my coleagues getting blamed for not delivering the product on-time... put some marketing clown, who has no clue how long the working code has to be created in the lead of the project and your product fail even if you put your best into it...

IMO having your own engine can be good thing, you just have to use it for more than 1 game, or your expenses will skyrocket... good example is Bethesda, although we all know that their engine is one of the clumsier But they still can use it for all their games, and from what i have seen in Oblivion and Fallout 3, they are upgrading the engine aswell...

And Activision is very close to the same position, what is the most strange thing to me is how Blizz got into Activision they generate like 3/4 of their income and that was the case even before the merger to Purkake: I will not yell against Source engine, althought i did not get similar results from Source than from UE3, and Source could be marked as last gen engine, because it is pretty old already (dont shoot me please for saying that please )

Epic might not be the best game creator ever, but let be honest... could you imagine today's gaming without their 3D engines? I blame Unreal Engine 3 for all the weird shiny models in Bioshock etc. UE1 was a great improvement, though. ye i still remember the day i seen Unreal 1 for the 1st time the engine and what you could do with it was brilliant at that time and about UE3 if it is good optimized it can make wonders... my PC could be marked as utter-crap (single core AMD Athlon 3500+ 2GB RAM and GeForce 9600) and i was able to get from Unreal 3 constant 60FPS at 1680x1050 resolutions... what current gen engine can offer similar results? EDIT: and i never said there is no innovation in games, but expecting it from every single game which is released is not good idea
