  • The Walking Dead

    I don't know, i think they are doing the same exact errors that we've seen in the original.

    Characters are dumb, at every decision they need to take you can be 100% sure they'll choose the bad one. They are also not communicating with each others, like any human being would behave... Also, very stereotypical character, the kind, the mother, the junkie, the douchebag son... Mhmmmm, m'okay, can we get over this and have actual people working on scenarios ? I feel like my 18ish D&dragons characters were deeper...

    Other than that, it's decent :)

    Hey All,

    I'm Wyeth Johnson from Epic Games. Earlier this week, we partnered with Ronen Bekerman to sponsor the biggest cash prize pool in ArchVis history, 100% realtime, 100% in UnrealEngine 4. It's called "The Vineyard".

  • Source 2!

    Quote from laminutederire

    Csgo will be ported to source 2, it has too many success, and the community is really hard to move from one counter strike to another, also 3kliksphilip has some good point about the limitations they will put for cs go, have you seen his video about that?

    this one :)

    After trying the "new" Dota Reborn, i can't even tell the difference besides the fact that this version does not support Azerty or keybinding, does not save options and has a terrible UI. Trust me, you don't want Source 2 now :D

  • For Honor

    Looks promising, but god, why the fuck the UI is taking half the screen... I hate huge UI, this is dumb to show in extra size so little informations as kill count and remaining buddies, wasn't a way to do a minimalistic UI instead of this ? Hope this come before Bannerlords, so i'll try this out and then switch to a real manly game :D

  • Star Wars Battlefront

    Meh, i don't know what to think, sure it's sexy and well scripted... But i would like to see what the game look like when it's not scripted and filled with dumb players (the main reason why i hate Battlefrield games is they look like a dirty mess where everyone is basically rambo). Also the preview was 40v40 ? or 40+IA vs 40+IA ? Still really sad that they cut down the third of the original games...

  • Steam now offering refunds

    Quote from blackdog

    Could we even profit? If you ask refund from games from Humble Bundle, they can't know how much you paid. I usually actually steer all money toward the devs of the couple games I buy the pack for.

    Same applies to greenman etc, if you buy discount… maybe works only for stuff bought through steam?

    Also, Humble Bundle is not a store, it's a donation platform. You don't buy games, you give money to an organization and they give you keys provided for free by developers... At least that's how I hope it works, ddifferences between donation taxes and sales taxes.

    I ever wonder if I could ask for a (state) taxes reduction with HB donations : in France, you can ask for something like 75% deduction from your donation to your taxes report. ... NVM I just found this official page saying that i can't ask for it if there is a counterpart to my donation :/

  • Please share my Kickstarter project!

    Normandie represent ! 1-4 in da place !

    Good luck with that project, you should check some facebook groups about photography in France, and/or groups that might be interested and make some advert for it. Maybe even try to send a link to some libraries, would worth the try :)

  • Star Wars Battlefront

    As Sprony and Thrik said, would you still call a car a car if you remove wheels, steering wheel and the engines ? Because i would call this a piece of junk metals.

    It's not much about the numbers of maps, really. It's about WHY THE FUCK CALL IT BATTLEFRONT IS THERE IS NO BATTLEFRONT IN IT. They should have named it "Starwars Battlefield Hardline" . At least i wouldn't have expect anything from that title.


    Yet, i still hope i'm wrong and that they really based BF3 on SWBF games. Trully part of my childhood.

  • Star Wars Battlefront

    Quote from Puddy

    Yeah, jesus christ. That was a pretty infantile comparison website. But what do I know, maybe the number of maps is the most important thing. Maybe I should change my design philosophy.


    Well honestly, I'm not a big fan of internet bashing on companies, but that comparison speaks for itself : in ten years of new tech and design, they aren't even filling 1/5 of what BF2 was.


    No Campaign ? Fuck it, BF were coop couch games where you played with your best friend 2 versus a shitstorm of bots !


    Speaking about maps, I understand that it requires more work to have a decent level than back in 2005. Not really a big deal. At least for any other company, but EA is well known for sucking people wallets with over stretched DLCs...


    I was really hype until they released some info about what's in and what's missing. Now i have the strong feeling this game of my childhood will be another Battlefield. I just hope i'll be proven wrong at E3 when they'ill reveal some gameplay footage

  • What's going on with your life?

    Quote from TheOnlyDoubleF

    So, she asked me to apply next year for my final year internship and may be get hired their.


    The HR from Annecy is quite nice, I had the occasion to met her and the Ubisoft team in their office with school.

    She promised to try to find us (we were 12+ students or so) some interview for positions in Annecy and other Ubi offices, but in the end we haven't heard of any offer, guess it's more an oversight than a HR bullshit


    Keep going on, I have no doubt you'll land somewhere that fits your will
