hah, that will keep your mind off these engines

I notice its a DX9 engine.
So why compare it to Doom 3 which is a GL Engine?

Looks pretty sweet. Wonder how well it lends itself to game design...

Microsoft's .NET 2.0 platform has allowed us to unlock the potential of our powerful and flexible level editing tools as well as our flexible programming framework.

This isn't exactly a feature I would be pimping since 2.0 isn't out of beta yet....

.Net kicks ass.

Please tell how the Unreal3 engine, with its full features unbeknownst to us, is better than this one?

I agree but I wouldn't build a commercial product that had to be used with a beta framework/driver/etc...

I think it looks like a cool game. Different to say the least.

If the release time of the product is after the framework's release, I'd say it's an excellent way to get a massive headstart. Also, being beta they will probably be working closer with Microsoft than they would otherwise and will have the ability to bring to light any issues they uncover. Not to mention that Microsoft has probably waited until it was quite stable before opening it to MSDN subscribers so the bulk of the changes before release will likely be only bug fixes.

to be honest, most of those screenshots don't look much better (and remind me of) Silent Hill 2

higher texture res, fo sho
but i must say, it looks a bit splintercellish.

this would have a more dramatic effect if they trashed all the images but the last one, it definately has potential

I have an even better reality engine. Go to your front door and open it. Feast your eyes on that real-time per pixel lightning!

Post by **SplishSplash** » Mon May 09, 2005 8:25 am

How is this better than the Far Cry engine?
Seriously. Maybe they've used a couple more polys and higher res textures, but that's not really that impressive considering the continuing advance in hardware.

At least Doom3 had those shadow thingies.

Reefsurfer, why not post just one pic and give a link rather than sticking in 3000 like you usually do? Give me and Booger a break.

The beta sdk and runtime have been public for a while. So you don't really have to be close to Microsoft to use it. I've been building stuff in C# with it and although I don't see anything wrong with it I just felt like finding something negative to argue about.
