  • Battlefield 3

    i like how more and more developers have started to get the memo that global illumination is important to good looking visuals but also that precalculated lightmaps are a cock sucking nightmare work-flow killer.

    GO dynamic GI RND !!!!!!!!!

  • Crysis 2

    far-cry and crysis are to me definite contenders for the "worst story ever"-award (only bionic commando can trump them really) and this looks to me like its gonna join right in with its predecessors

    but the soundtrack in the trailer is totally epic ! :derp:

  • Game Wishes

    i felt like building something busy to test that awesome unity shader editor by tim "stramit" cooper:

    http://%7boption%7d

    the shader is something a bit different. it does the uncharted fringy transition thing via vertex alpha ! vertex-color colors the object (i also baked ao into the verts) but not in the damaged areas there it only darkens the objects (chipped away paint) ! but the really funny part is i use the second uv set to control how much self illumination/cubemap/fresnel/specular i want to have on a vertex! giving me control over a vast arrey of looks all in the same object/drawcall. and also allowing for insane re-usability of one and the same material drastically improving framerate in my scenes

    if there is any kind of interest i can release the shader and the graph network ...

  • Dead Island

    that trailer is certainly awesome but should be judgedand considered completly by itself !

    as a short movie i think it totaly succeeds

    but this doesnt mean ANYTHING for the game it might still be the biggest heap of poo ever who knows?!

    anybody have any idea who made the trailer ? was it blur studios ? some of the rendering/lighting is exceptional

  • What are you playing now?

    just finished bioshock 2 ( buying/playing games half a year to a year too late is great for your wallet )

    +the setting is still totally awesome

    +the different weapons /plasmids /ammo types/ upgrade possibilitys are diverse, fun and across the board useful

    +its polished and properly qaed i dont think i encountered a single bug ( except maybe for a ragdoll arm intersecting into some railing ... everbodys got that shit )

    +story and ending are better than the first one (you heard me !)

    +no bossfight that is not supported by the core mechanics

    +no escort mission that is not supported by the core mechanics

    +horde-mini-game that can be initilized within the campaign is challenging and fun.

    +tons of decision making goes into every kill and every interaction with the world ... this thing is bursting out of all seams with DESIGN

    -too much too loot sometimes i was just spinning around the camera and hitting use to pick up everything around me.

    -enemys dont give enough feedback when hit sometimes it feels like you are playing fallout or some other turn based rpg

    -when combat gets really intense there is way too much stuff to keep track off which stressed me out quit a bit

    -locations within rapture are not diverse/characteristic enough

    -i think i missed a lot of water cooler moments by not look in the right direction and the right time.

    all around awesome game 8/10 as good if not better than bioshock 1

    Quote from Sentura

    i'm still hoping for meritocracy, but people will never accept that everyone isn't equal... least of all americans.

    i did a quick read on wikipedia and must say i could get behind that ! ... i mean at least we should try it !

    Democracy is shit.

    *W0rd* high five buddy ^^

    sure it might be the lesser of an ocean of evils

    but i still think its pathetic that we havent figured out something more optimal by now !
