News Comments > Crysis 3: Lost Island Found
2. Re: Crysis 3: Lost Island Found Jun 5, 2013, 14:26 Xenovore
 
I doubt it gets better. Crysis 1 was designed as a PC game, first and foremost. The others are designed as console games, with all the limitations that you're gonna get with 8 year old tech; e.g. levels are small and linear because there isn't enough memory for decent-sized levels.

Steam has been a god send for indies. Their upfront seems a little high, but getting your game on the front page gets it in front of millions of people.

Assuming your game meets the arbitrary standards that Valve sets for Steam.

It's actually fairly difficult to get an indie game on Steam; you must have just the right combination of innovation, aesthetics, game-play, and planetary alignment or it's a no-go. (And they won't even tell you why your game was turned down.)

News Comments > Quoteworthy - id's Tim Willits on Always-on Gaming

I've been looking forward to Rage for a long time now, but I guarantee if id Software jumps on the online-connection-required bandwagon, I will not be purchasing Rage. (Just as I am not purchasing Diablo 3, or any other single-player games requiring an online connection.)

In my experience "always connected" is more like "mostly connected"; inevitably, it's exactly at the moment that I want to play a game that my internet connection craps out. And there are still millions of square miles on this planet where it pretty much impossible to get an internet connection, but people still want to play games in those locations. (This is a issue particularly here in the western US.)

Once again EA reaffirms why I will not buy their junk. EA and Ubi can go burn in hell together.

Gamespy is about as relevant these days as a Model T. And after experiencing Gamespy's quality (read: lameness) first-hand in Borderlands -- Gamespy just needs to go straight to hell and not come back. Ever.

Heh! Exactly what I was thinking! It will look great, but the game-play will be incredibly dull... Sleeping

No LAN play or dedicated servers? Why the hell did they even bother putting multi-player in there at all?!! Huh

Either do it right, or just forget about it completely.

WTF were they thinking?!

Gearbox just lost a sale... and every last shred of respect I might have had for them.

Screw 'em.
