I have noticed a pattern recently on forums. It appears as though many people who make comments about FPS games haven't played any on console (or at all) for the past five years. CoD MW3 uses the MW3 engine. Black Ops (1) uses IW engine. Black Ops 2 uses Black Ops 2 engine. Please guys, if you haven't played the games, just wiki them. I double-checked the google just to be sure I didn't look like an asshat too.
Anyways, the thing that made me check out this game is because they are using Ue. Sure, I'm probably a snobby gamer, but I wouldn't have tried a FPS game MMORPG devs made from the ground up, w/o a friend telling me it was good. id Tech (notice the lower case i) is alright. They are on 5 now btw, not 3 (for id). Someone else said it before, but this gen. of consoles is old. Ue4 is supposed to be sweet, and geared towards consoles. id tech 3-5 is tired, and I don't know how close id tech 6 is. Ue4 was already shown off to a few devs.
I'll admit, I haven't played a number of Ue3 games on console, but I have heard that they are full of problems. However, it seemed like they had problems because console hardware is kind of lame. I played games like Unreal Tournament 3 on PC and they were amazing. That's when CoD4 came out, and unfortunately other FPS games didn't really stand a chance against CoD4.
It seems obvious, but beta games are in beta for a reason. Clearly, your thoughts are relevant beta or not, because I am pretty sure they will release on Ue, but I have also noticed that some gamers have trouble differentiating between beta problems and, say, engine problems. But seriously dude, id Tech 3??? That was so ten to twelve years ago =/. This game will never be on the PS2.
Edit: I'm loling pretty hard right now. I haven't played games that ran on id Tech 3 in so long! I remember playing Medal of Honor: Allied Assault with my little brother on my XBOX. Just XBOX, no 360! |
