From what we've seen of rage the biggest area is that small linear driving section. I'd hardly call that ready for a game like oblivion. Also I doubt the megatexture pipeline would work well for a game of Oblivions scale, unless you have 4000 artists. I wonder how easy it is to outsource art for a megatexture pipeline, lets not forget most games these days outsource shit tons of their assets.

A game of oblivions scale needs tons of copy paste and reuse - not amazingly detailed corridors and just as small dogleg'd cities. Lets not also forget theres a good chance they don't have the logic tools required to make an RPG game.

Don't get me wrong I'm looking forward to RAGE, but it's very much a FPS engine and toolset from what I've seen.

It'd be near impossible to make a game the scale of oblivion with ID tech 5, for the budget they're prob getting. All "slightly" educated guessing of course lol

looking good

Happy new year core!

the fire itself looks awesome, but yeah without light sources looks a bit outa place.

They should just add fade distances for the light so they can keep all the closer ones on

hats off to them for doing this, it's technically a bitch to try and simulate fire/smoke

Alright this film is a proper jizz in your pants fest, absolutely stunning

I'd be amazed if any recruiters looked at application emails through the developer website. I remember one time I got mailed back saying mine had gone into their junk folder which had been found by accident. Anyway congrats, a good christmas present.

Oh they do you just have to be in the right place at the right time with the right portfolio

oh nice nice gtz

Dragon Age is my fav sp RPG ever and racked up something like 250 hours on it ... so amazing it's impossible to explain heheheh, but like Mass Effect 1 and 2 I think I'll prefer the original over the "polished" sequals screw meta critic scores ...

it's a baked animation not roket science, there

":12bvtafd]What a shame!

Theres no doubt we're stylizing the game more than aiming for 100% realism and it's a good thing

It's partly an art decision but also related to many game play considerations that are needed to bring urban combat into a city like New York The entire game is not so destroyed though, we have allot of variation.

shes hot so i'll watch this and tron :santahurg:

fix the animation system and polish some of the renderer and it'll be kick ass although i have a feeling the scale of these games is what causes rushed art in many places so will better techonology solve it

think I just jizzed in my pants

nice
