You're not buying a dildo, you're investing in the concept of a future dildo. It looks like you want a girthy one, and as our chairman indicates, there's actually a girth slider on the dildo. So whatever girth you want it will totally do. Welcome to future dildo development. The Titanic fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Oct 28, 2021 |

He made a fictional version of himself that does... other peoples' real-world jobs. It's like writing a fanfic about being Mark Zuckerberg. And he still somehow got beat to the punch by people IRL despite having received enough money to probably make a real Space Company. They delivered real-life commercial space flights before he could deliver commercial videogame space flight.

What is it about CryEngine that keeps attracting every bone-headed game designer to try and use it to make games it was not even remotely designed to run? I'm thinking back to that Sonic Boom game that was largely hosed because Sega insisted that the studio making it had to use CryEngine for it....on the WIi U

Kikas posted:Probably good promo, cheap license and Crysis is a pretty game. Crysis is the ultimate game for the specs-obsessed gamers. It's not that pretty imo, but it has fidelity. It's a good sell on paper probably. I happened to check out this list a few days ago and the only game I have played from that list is Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which also has a bland sterile look, but has lots of ferns in the forest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_CryEngine_games It seems like the perfect engine for teams with no strong artistic direction, but a need for sterile detail.

CryEngine is perfect if you want a map filled with bushes and trees and some good looking water here and there. Which is why it makes perfect sense for a game set in outer space where the few planets are barren wastelands

This also ties in with the theory that in order to make the relatively small shooter-oriented Cryengine maps seem like a large universe, all of the game assets are shrunk/miniscule which wreaks havoc with collision detection etc. as the game keeps having to determine object coordinates that are too small to be precise at that scale

There are many ways that they could have gone about achieving their end goals ( cheating) so basically anyone saying "if they did x instead" is correct, but just how they've gone wrong is what makes the whole thing so interesting. All of the terrible decision making lies at the hands of one person and it's humorous to see just how badly and openly they've mismanaged the entire thing.Remember when they used to have like 3 weekly shows? Around the Verse, Reverse the Verse (  ), Bugsmashers, weren't there others? Just the amount of time that went into producing garbage filler content instead of game content is staggering. It really shows a perverse sense of dedication and commitment to the grift. Then you get poo poo like Finley the Stormwal which is so insultingly low effort that I feel secondary embarrassment for whoever spent the five minutes making that rendering.

At least as of couple years ago pilots in SC would randomly get the default water splash on screen animation that exists in CryEngine because they would go "under water" and then back above water while in space. I think it's fixed now (they just probably removed the art assets for the splash however the code is still running in the background).

Drakkel posted:What is it about CryEngine that keeps attracting every bone-headed game designer to try and use it to make games it was not even remotely designed to run? Judging by how Amazon and CIG both seemed to be able to just "own" the engine and do whatever they want with it, even resell it, I wouldn't be surprised if some goofy CryTek sales guys heavily imply/allow you to do that during the sales pitch under probably nebulous explanation. You can't do that with unreal and I doubt their sales guys ever imply or allow you to resell a rebranded unreal engine. So if you have delusions that you can come on scene with a game engine and make bank because you added a plug in to it and can rebrand and sell it as you own, you can skip years and years of "building an engine" and cut right to the "I added a plug-in and now buy my version of it!" for making easy $$$. In amazons case they figured if they added in AWS support it would fly off the shelves. In CIGs case I think nobody really thought it through and we're doing vitamins while breaking contract all over the place, maybe having gone in and thought they could add a space game plugin and resell the engine. Very early concepts of star citizen was more friendly to that kind of behavior, complete with modding support and servers people could set up for their own custom private games. Only later did unbridled greed shut down the kindness of building a fun game people could play in favor of an endless pyramid scheme and donation box to infinity.

Being fair to CIG for once, Cryengine was so horrible it actively gimped even Crytek games, Crysis 2 is famous for having terrible performance due to the fact that it rendered an active ocean under the whole map all the time, despite the game being set in a city. And it's a pretty complex simulation. I do believe that Cryengine is suited for Crysis 1 and nothing else, because the devs hardcoded 90% of the functionality. The engine is okay-ish for what it was built to do in the first place, it's just not very flexible. Kikas fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Oct 29, 2021 |

Some people are convinced by the incoherent rambling antics of such illustrious Crytek alumni as Sean Tracy and Ortwin Freyermuth; others are familiar enough with game development to be able to spec out their own requirements and pick an engine that works for those, Some people end up picking CryEnging because of what it can do; others pick some other engine based on what they can do themselves. Consider the overlap between these groups.
