  1. Game News 2 Days Left Until Project X Reveal

    This all makes perfect sense if you just compare snake symbol with White wolf IP - world of darkness which absolutely relates to all this text jibberish. Given that Tim Cain is on board, Vampires are on the rise - that's masquerade time!

  2. Official "I (DON'T) NEED A WASTELAND 2 COPY" thread

    Very brief: Wet, buggy and performance breaking Mono C# runtime inside the engine Absolutely alien build process for iOS and Mac Very low extensibility of engine - almost none (engine is in fact a sandbox) Low performance of Objective-C calls out of engine Troubles and generic problems calling...

  3. Official "I (DON'T) NEED A WASTELAND 2 COPY" thread

    There is a huge thread where people discuss this.. As I said I have my own reasons (I was the only person opposing Unity adoption in our company) - being opposed to tons of people, sleepless nights, hate speeches from Unity lovers towards me, negative feelings all around. Just imagine many...

  4. Official "I (DON'T) NEED A WASTELAND 2 COPY" thread

    Cut me out please I really hope someone will be happy with wasteland, but made with unity mark means straight NO to me no matter what. This is personal between me and that engine and nuff said.

  5. Game News Wasteland 2 to use Unity

    The interesting thing is that Unity engine is actually sold as a Sandbox environment - i.e. you don't get source code to the 3D engine and you can extend it only using scripts. For most projects that require just a bit-more than fairly small subset of scripting this is pretty bad. In such case...

  6. Game News Wasteland 2 to use Unity

    I've done a serious 3D engine comparison just a couple of months ago. We targeted Mac, Win and iOS - Unity was the front-runner. I am proud that I managed to throw this ugly piece of crap away. I am not going to explain why it is so bad - the listing of problems of this engine is around 3 pages...

  7. The Risen 2 Thread

    Posting Changelog, quite a lot and it imho deserves to be here.. Features - Players can now block most attacks by monsters - Player has a "dodge" move in the fight - double press the arrow keys while holding the right mouse button / goose-mode Y + stick right / left / back to controller...

  8. The Risen 2 Thread

    Here is the translated blurb from Russian world of risen site.. Last weekend in Germany there was an event called "Role Play Convention 2012: Dark Waters". The main topic being Risen 2. On it many people could test the game and during prolonged time chat with PB devs either on stage or close and...

  9. The Risen 2 Thread

    Just a couple of questions to hivemind, I can't find answers to them myself no matter how.. 1. Why chest operations, campfire, etc are now on separate out of context screen? For ages we've been toying with chests right in the game world and now, ahem what the fuck? (Risen 2 typical talk) 2. I...

  10. The Risen 2 Thread

    Yep, the first thing any sane person should do is to disable autosaves, this requires minor config tweaking, but gives so much relief!

  11. The Risen 2 Thread

    Killing someone in G1/G2/R1 crowded areas typically meant quick and painful death..(at least during first chapters) so evil PC is sufficiently rewarded.. Not far in R2 - is there at least a brothel?

  12. The Risen 2 Thread

    Still can't cope that you can't loot NPC and can't even kill most of them. Why this was altered from system that was used in 3 games is beyond my understanding.

  13. Baldur's Gate Beamdog's Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 Enhanced Editions

    Some funky stuff for you Codexia. Here is some old stuff from my shelf, one of the first CD boxes I've ever bought. It's of course pirated, there were no other types of games in Russia at that time. This one was pricey as hell. The set includes 5 CD's. I also have a box for BG2.

  14. Baldur's Gate Beamdog's Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 Enhanced Editions

    I am very happy about iOS port. Yes, I am Apple cocksucker, I admit it. I really wanted to see BG on iPad straight away, so I guess they have my money. I wish other solid Infinity engine games will follow, especially Torment, and no I don't think it will be neglected and thrown out by today's...

  15. Official "I (DON'T) NEED A WASTELAND 2 COPY" thread

    Yes, sure I want a codexian engraved copy!
