Forums - Gaming Discussion - Another next-gen game announced! (Unreal Engine 4)

Do you need a 680/7970 to run Unreal Engine 4 games or i just got that fully wrong. I am saying this because Epic was running their tech demo on really high end pc. How will these games scale down for lower tier video cards.

Unreal 4 will rule next gen as UE3 did on this gen.

I'm sure it will be very scalable, like UE3

I see. Very cool. 



any hints at release to unannounced platforms? not that i have anything against PC exclusives i just want to see something hinted to MSony's next platforms for a benchmark.

 

edit: nm, free to play title.

Will probably be doable with weaker stuff but not MUCH weaker.5 year old cards or so will probably die instantly.
Techdemos show always what is possible with UltraMax Settings while a game won't use it in a long long time.


And yeah...UE4 will be the most used Engine like the UE3 was in this Gen but not cause its the best.
It is cause everyone can afford it - Even people at home can afford while you have to pay insane amounts of money to get the license of CryEngine3,Frostbyte2 Engine and other stuff.THose Engine are all superior to the Unreal Engine but no one can afford it.
And yes those other engines are superior cause they are able to create REALISTIC stuff...The UE4 will be used for the same things as the UE3 was in this Gen...Gorillas on Steroids,Oil tears and everything will look the same.

I hope it's a little less popular though, or that devs are more easily able to use the toolset.

Many games at the start of this generation looked very similar due to the widespread prevelance of the Unreal engine.

No, no, this hasn't been announced as a F2P game :o. And no video has been shown. The pic in the OP is from their last game, Blacklight: Retribution, which is F2P.


right,they are going tobe busy then by the sounds of it



                                                                                                                                        Above & Beyond

   

Yay... more first person shooters... joy...



I'm going to play this as much as I played the first one. Which is the same amount I play all multiplayer only games free to play games. Never.
