You'll feel the impact of that one
in a minute
Epic sold out a long time ago. Wishing for another good UT or Unreal game is foolhardy; even if they would make one, they're too busy building their mountain of gold off Gears of War, Infinity Blade, and other console franchises. In fact, if you go to the list of games on the Epic Games website, none of the Unreal games are even on the list. That is just how much Epic has sold out.
But I digress. Anything Epic does these days is usually a disappointment to me. I really miss the Unreal and Unreal Tournament days. Back then, Epic still cared about the individual player, and it was almost like you were part of the company if you played their games. It was like you were part of something awesome.
But I think we should take a step back now and examine the claim that Epic abandoned us. Now, it's usually been made pretty clear by now that the UT games are always the Flagship franchise for a new Unreal Engine. Epic, has stated, time and time again, that they expect a lot more life can be pulled out of the Unreal Engine 3 for many new games.
As such, they are firm in supporting the Unreal Engine 3 until such time as they feel it is getting stale, so to speak. So, while there hasn't been another Unreal Tournament in a while, there are good reasons why. Oh yes, and not to mention the fact that the last UT3 didn't do so well either, so that may make them even more cautious in kicking another one out any time soon.
What is this "we"? There is no "we". You don't speak for me motherfucker.Originally Posted by Arnox View Post
