What is the worst modern game engine?
>>277274906
Gamebryo, then Unreal Engine 3.
The new Frostbyte engine seems real shit too.
Source.

I'm pretty sure most people bash Unity just because there's a shitton of horrible indie games slapped together using it. Unity itself isn't that bad, it's just so easy to get started with that people who can't make games flock around it.
Unity's pretty reliably shit. Might be easy to code for but the optimization is usually garbage.

What's wrong with UE3? Sure, it's comparatively ancient, but there's nothing wrong with it.
>>277275785
nice bait
>>277275919
Where there is good, there is bad.
The worst is anyone who decides to code their own engine. Unity might not be as fast as a lot of other engines but it allows for fast iteration, meaning that it results in better gameplay in the hands of people who know how to use it. Anyone trying to make their own engine is going to waste a lot of time coding shit that's buggy and will run worse than any modern engine.
>>277274991
This.
I'd also place Anvil on the list of shit engines.
>>277275851
>but the optimization is usually garbage.
Care to elaborate? From what I've tried the engine itself seems to be pretty well optimized. Not a fan of the component-based architecture though.

Jokes on you, Ubisoft already have their own crappy engine. Just look at AC3, Watch Dogs, or ACU

RAGE is actually one of the best engines around. Extremely versatile. Even more than CryEngine.

>>277274991

>>277276307
>clunky as fuck

>everything looks like it's covered by celophane

It's because most dev use the base engine and they're too lazy to custom it for their own. That's why UE3 is really noticeable that it use UE3.
>>277276307
>Judging the engine by the games made using it
You know, pretty much all of those are up to the developer to implement, so it's not the engine's fault if a dev fucks them up.
It seems like most people in this thread haven't even used the engine they're criticizing.
>>277276192
New Frostbite is the 3rd one, Anon. Second was used for BF3 and Warfighter.
This engine is actually very limited and I still don't see why does EA want to use it for every single game now.
>>277276369
Watch Dogs uses a different engine than Ass Creed games...
>>277276383
>every single artist does the same shit
>>277276560
No shit. Why would they customize the engine? It should work out of the box.
Whatever Sucker Punch and Guerrilla Games uses in house. Both look really dated and character models look like plasticine.
I would pick Dunia as the weakest engine.
>>277276668
That ain't Killzone, faggot.
Warscape engine, the one all recent total war games have been on since empire.
>>277276621
They used Frostbite for the latest Need for Speed game. Think it was Rivals. Regardless it wasn't a great idea because if you drove fast enough the game would stop rendering obstacles that could wreck your car. I traded in the game because of that.
>>277276731
It uses the same engine and it looks like shit.
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/08/12/until-dawn-unveiled-for-ps4/
>>277276621
Technically Watch Dogs use Disrupt, which has elements of Anvil (the one that AC games use) and Dunia (the one that FC games use). Nevertheless, it's still damn similar engine, since it's still a ubisoft game anyway, they're all same shit.
>>277276621
>Why would they customize the engine? It should work out of the box.
That stuff doesn't even involve "customizing the engine". Controls and aiming are something that the dev has to implement, and it's not the engine's fault if they can't do it properly (assuming that the input handling in the engine isn't flawed or something, which it isn't in the case of UE3). The "celophane look" is also up to the dev to take care of, assuming that they're not using some pre-made assets that came with the engine.
Have you even tried UE3 or are you bashing it just based on games that run on it?
>>277276791
>Shitty devs use decent engine and it looks shit.
No shit? Killzone itself looks fine. You're a faggot.

>>277276720

Yeah. Frostbite is retardedly buggy. It looks good on screenshots, or when everything loads correctly, but other than that - shit. Also everything looks like it literally has ice coating.
>>277276850
>Management of an open world city from the AnvilNext engine, and vegetation and AI mechanics from the Dunia Engine have been implemented in Disrupt.
That's all it uses. Other than that it's a new engine.
>>277276621
>Why would they customize the engine?
Not customize the engine, you dingus. I mean customize basic shit like the looks, controls, and else

Well, from a DEV standpoint and from the available engines you can test or buy/subscribe.
Cry engine. Documentation is ass, support is ass, financing is ass
UE4 is shaping up good, needs more documentations tho
Unity, well C# is great
>>277276959

Wait, i thought they are not using that engine and pushing their own
>>277276913
You're not serious right now, are you?
How come every single game that runs on it has the exact same set of problems?
Well maybe because the problem lies in the engine itself, and not the devs. Even Epic couldn't handle their own engine well.
>>277274991
I hope you do realise that neither Gamebryo, nor UE3 are modern engines, right? UE3 is 8 and Gamebryo around 7 years old which is an eternity in vidya land.
>>277277195
Frostbite is leagues ahead.
>>277277229
That guy doesn't even look human. He's an alien.
>>277277283
Anon that's racist.
>>277277124
CryEngine is amazing. It can run on toasters while looking gorgeous and honestly it still looks better than any other engine out there. Just look at recent games like RYSE.
I wish more games used it.
>>277277262
>How come every single game that runs on it has the exact same set of problems?
Because the engine comes with a set of basic pre-made scripts for handling stuff like moving around and aiming, and most devs are too lazy to make a proper system specifically designed for their game.
And if you think the engine is shit because of the simple pre-made assets and scripts it comes with, I guess every engine is shit.

>>277277589
Anon, you don't seem to understand what I said. EVERY fucking game made with UE3 is ridden with the exact same set problems. You'd think at least one dev, especially Epic, would handle the engine well, but no. Nobody did. So I'm guessing it must be the engine's fault. I don't know maybe it makes this shit too hard or something.
Source and the engine behind Arma are the most dated pieces of shit in need of a serious makeover.
Frostbyte went to hell.
Unity and Gamebryo need to be eradicated.
What's AC Unity running on?
>>277277786
I don't know what you're talking about but RDR and LA Noire and even GTAV worked fine on my shitty 360. GTAIV had some trouble with streaming textures, but only when you ran if straight off the disc.
>>277277856
AnvilNext
>>277277783
The engine is actually pretty crap. It doesn't have the most basic features and every cool thing it has right now is some technology that's been bought from an external dev.
Besides, it seems to have script based animations? That's fucked up.

>>277277921
I correct myself. BI also never made good engine from the get go. OFP engine is a mess.
>>277277994
Fox Engine ran quite well on PES. GZ is probably super rushed since it riddled with bugs, unusual from regular MGS game.
We'll see about TPP.
This seems more like developer issues than engines.
>>277277994
This is just a single thing that I quickly got off google but the engine itself is a fucking nightmare. Arma would be so much better and approachable if it used a different engine.
Also, Fox Engine at least runs perfectly on toasters while RV requires some insane computer to run at max..
>>277277995
No. Killzone engine is a shit engine.
>>277274906
Definitely Gamebryo. Especially Bethesda's particular flavor of it.
>>277278035
>Implying GTA V wasn't amazing on the technical level considering the hardware it ran on
it can't even run at 60 fps on modern console.
Postal 2 engine.

SA barely ran on 30 fps on PS2. The fact it actually ran alone makes it impressive.

>

>>277278220
So Unreal Engine 2.
Most crashes are because bad coding on RWS's part. I should know, I have tons of post in the testing section on their forums and speak with Toploader then and when
>>277278249

There's a multitude of engines that could be made to work for this. UE, CryEngine, RAGE, EGO, even Frostbite.

Forgot to mention that Fox Engine also runs at max on toasters. Arma's engine is horribly optimized while not even looking all that well.
>>277276169

BF3 ran great.
EA infected DICE with their cancer and imposed a schedule forbidding any optimization or even remotely clean code, so BF4 is shite.
If Bioware (!!!) can make a well optimized and good looking game with your engine, then you know it's good.
>>277278452
Forgot to mention that Fox Engine also runs at max on toasters
and arma 3 max >>> PZ max
but maybe if they gimped what arma 3 max is, the game would be suddenly more "optimized" according to you.
>>277278452
Also you're wrong. None of those engine except maybe CryEngine with some heavy fucking modification could do what RV does. But that doesn't mean RV is a good engine by any means.
>>277278452

>>277278495
sorry Cockstar. I guess I'm entilted for asking 60 FPS when you do a re-release on modern console.

and ? the engine is not responsible for shitty graphism , animations or input latency. you're blaming the art team and the codders , not the engine itself.

On the contrary, the JC2 engine is fucking great. Looks great, mostly stable without crashes with fuckhuge maps, can run 60fps even on toasters.
>>277278709
It's not like GTA ever have history with good graphics or 30+ fps
>>277278163
>Arma would be so much better and approachable if it used a different engine.
There's no other engine that can handle the amount of (dynamic) objects, AI, or terrain size that arma contains. Obviously you have to sacrifice some things to have others. Which is why there are different game engines to begin with
>>277278720
The games runs like shit also and are glitchy.
>>277278571
BF3 didn't run great. It also had major problems when it was released and it all took time to patch. The engine ran fairly well performance wise but it was also buggy as hell. Netcode was also shit, but better than in BF4.
>>277278575
But Arma 3 at max still looks uglier than Fox Engine... Fox engine was designed to run well on consoles while delivering massive detailed open world just like Arma. Except, you know, Arma wouldn't even run on a console.
>>277278406
Yep, like i said. Fucking retards. Not cute. Fucking disgusting, actually.
Bugs aren't exactly engine fault. Take gamebryo so shitted on here for example. Many other games use it, like divinity II, el shaddai, Catherine or even civ IV. They don't have the same problems like skyrim or oblivion. Just because bethesda goes full retarded with it doesn't mean it's bad.
And no, gamebryo isn't exactly a good engine. Although it has decent documentation and can be decent if you prefer iterative development.
>>277278402
And how do you know it's engine fault? What if it's modular? What if the latency is handled by by some module and not the engine itself? What if it was dev choice?
Do you actually know something about this engine or do you speak out of your ass?
>>277278727
But that's what I mean. Most engines would shit itself if they had to do what RV does, with the AI and draw distance.
I'm kind of curious on how Snowdrop would do however, at least on how that handles cities. If RV used a similar system to their cities I think it could make urban warfare in ArmA actually tolerable instead of a 25 FPS shitfest.
>>277278919
>It also had major problems when it was released and it all took time to patch.
0 of which are engine related.
>>277278402
What's animations had to do with the engine?
>>277278837
JC2 engine might be great, but JC2 does nothing with it. The only slightly impressive feat is that there are alot of breakable objects on screen at once, namely tress. Other than that the game doesn't make the processor do any advanced calculations since everything from the ai to the bullets physics is basic at best. The draw distance is laughable and don't get me started on the almost instantly disappearing ruble and bodies.
The game had so much potential. I hope that JC3 will actually be interesting.
>>277278608
M8 do you even remotely have ANY idea what you're talking about? Any of those engines could deliver the same things Arma does but much better.

I think RAGE is the only modern engine that wow me, and that's because it's helped by Euphoria.
>>277278838
Anon, but the main problem is that RV doesn't handle those things well either. It's just stupidly thought out and nothing in this game works well.

>>277279145
You obviously have no fucking idea what you're talking about but you act like you do.
Frostbite does NOT have big maps, not even CLOSE to what is featured in ArmA. Frosbite would also explode if it had to deal with more than 5 AI's at once.
RAGE hasn't been proven to run something as big as ArmA with the draw distance. The biggest is GTA V and as you can see there the rendering distance is barely 10 meters and YOU STILL HAVE FUCKING POP IN MODELS AND TEXTURES
EGO, alright I'll give you EGO. It could actually do it. However it hasn't been updated for how long and looks incredibly outdated.
No but we're not talking about just fucking ballistics, we're talking about having to deal with all the dynamic objects, the lightning, the physics, the AI, the player, the ballistics, the models and EVERYTHING FUCKING ELSE IN THE DRAW DISTANCE THAT ARMA OFFERS THAT CRYENGINE CAN'T FUCKING DO OUT OF THE BOX.

Holy shit how fucking hard are you trying to be wrong right now? Just because Battlefield hasn't done massive maps yet, doesn't mean the engine wouldn't. Same goes for the AI that DOES work correctly. Unlike in Arma where the AI is just retarded.
>RAGE hasn't been proven to run something as big as ArmA with the draw distance. The biggest is GTA V and as you can see there the rendering distance is barely 10 meters and YOU STILL HAVE FUCKING POP IN MODELS AND TEXTURES
What are you even talking right now? Are you stupid? Have you never even seen GTAV played on shitty 360 consoles? It has a massive draw distance along with great amounts of physics and looks great. I can only expect it to work even better on PC.
>THAT CRYENGINE CAN'T FUCKING DO OUT OF THE BOX.
Anon, those are literally the things everyone praised first Crysis (and CE2) for. Because all those things were done right WAY before Arma. And of course WAY before Arma's tier of PC requirements.

An engine can't be "bland" you fucking moron, 3D models, texture, particles, etc. can be bland. MGSV doesn't go for realism the same way ARMA does because ARMA is a simulation, while MGSV is an action game trying to imitate the flair of Hollywood action movies with overdone post processing effects and saturated colours.
>We do. We saw it all in the gameplays.
Yes because "gameplays" are representative of the final quality of the game

Arma engine is fine.
VBS3 contains so much shit your mind would be blown and you'd forever hate consoles for holding technology back and it is relatively free.
Arma series is created by small "civilian" branch of BI, it's geared toward civilians to provide fun instead of towards governments to provide training for their armies. It gets all the optimizations, bug fixes, more technology! than you'd ever imagine, AI programming and shit like that, because they have better clients than 13 year old children who just want to play dayz.
Only problem is the engine is ancient, it is still largely the same as OFP one, but it is amazing what they have done with it.
Arma3 is a buggy, unfinished game but still blows others out of the water with what it does.
Deal with it.

>>277280763
>An engine can't be "bland"
It can. In Arma everything looks like a plastic toy. It's probably a lighting problem or something.
>MGSV doesn't go for realism
It does. At least in terms of graphics.
>while MGSV is an action game trying to imitate the flair of Hollywood action movies with overdone post processing effects and saturated colours
Arma also imitates Hollywood flares and post processing, and neither Arma nor MGS oversaturate colours...
>Yes because "gameplays" are representative of the final quality of the game
The recent ones, yeah. In the worst case scenario it was recorded on PC, not consoles, so only consoles will get shit graphics.

The amount of people not having any idea what they're talking about in this thread is almost impressive.
>>277281153
Most engines can do lighting in more than a few ways. Usually when shit seems "plastic" it's due to poor texture and shader work.

Exactly NONE of these are because of the game engine. Holy shit kill yourself for being this retarded.

>VBS3 contains so much shit your mind would be blown and you'd forever hate consoles for holding technology back and it is relatively free.
Yo, what? VBS3 uses RV but with a shitload of outsourced technologies. Besides it's not free, it's actually hard to get and expensive as fuck, because it's only meant for the military.
>Arma series is created by small "civilian" branch of BI
Nah. VBS is made by Bohemia Interactive Simulations that's based in Florida while Arma is handled by the original BI team from Czech Republic and it's not such a small team. They just decided to let modders do most of their work and just keep developing the game, so it's pretty much in an "early access" state all the time since release...
>Only problem is the engine is ancient
It's not. I mean sure it wasn't built from scratch for Arma 3 but it's surely not the same engine that was used in OFP.
>but still blows others out of the water with what it does
I wouldn't go as far to say this...
>>277281153
So if you say MGS looks realistic, are you saying it doesn't have an art style?
>>277281245
You don't even have any arguments beside "you're stupid" "le modern gamer".

Because of PS4 hardware
>and has heaps of tangling and glitching also.
Glitches happen as a result of scripting. Not engine.
How long are you going to keep proving your incompetence?
>>277281434
Doesn't UE4 still use lightmaps on terrain?
>>277281474
"Realistic" isn't really an art style. It's more of art direction.
>>277281534
Shit optimized engine that doesn't utilize multithreading and still uses shitty cubemaps with bad bokeh, hard jaggy shadows and shit ass lighting along with glitches at every corner.
Killzone Shadowfall is a buggy mess. They had to patch it 9 times after launch within the first week just to get it running properly so people could finish the game.
>>277275102
After source 2 leak with Dota 2 workshop tools it has been found that it finally has normal streaming loading. By that I mean it can finally load things while you play.

BYOND
anyone who says otherwise is completely and unquestionably wrong.
>>277281758
But we weren't even talking about Fox Engine at that point...
What were you even referring to when presenting me with this gameplay?
Engines don't really handle most any of the surface level crap you guys are talking about except may animation blending.
Engines handle low level graphics and sound apis.
All of the shaders and lighting and textures is dev work.
At most an engine may provide samples of this stuff as well as tools for designing games or pipelines or specialized systems for animation and stuff like blending.
Even this shit about optimization is mostly a developer issue.
While older engines are obviously not designed to scale with or take full advantage of newer hardware, if shit isn't running at a solid framerate it's because the devs elected not to manage the game's resources appropriately.

Fox Engine is absolute garbage. Stop sucking Kojima dick. It's shit. It's a poor ass engine made for consoles AND IT SHOWS.
The textures are absolutely abominable, the particles and FX are straight from 2001.

As opposed to gaussian that is still more used.

There's nothing wrong with way the engine handles lightning though.

>>277282354
I rather have repeating textures with proper IQ and resolution, looking sharp and where they should, ( plus, what were you expecting on a 250km2 terrain ? hand crafted textures per terrain ? fucking retarded cunt ) than non-repeating textures with a sub consolish resolution, that looks like undistilled blurry, pixelated shit. Like MGS V.
The screenshots are legit. There's no tricks. Both games are maxed out, yet the game with the biggest map and draw distance got the best textures. Why ? Because it's not a console game on a console engine.

Not seeing that same stone for each 1,5m at least. Especially when the game has next to nothing to draw, it should have all the texture memory it needs to have proper looking ground.

>The recent ones, yeah. In the worst case scenario it was recorded on PC, not consoles, so only consoles will get shit graphics.
News flash, most if not all AAA PS3, 360, PS4, Xbone games presented on the show floor of expos are being played on a PC. And yet that has absolutely nothing to do with how well they will perform or look in the end. Also this is not a "recent" practice.
Your initial argument:
>We do. We saw it all in the gameplays. It may only differ in console versions but the PC version will be at least as good as gameplays show it.
>It may only differ in console versions but the PC version will be at least as good as gameplays show it.

I'm sure you've never been, lel. MGS only blurs the image more but that's it. No oversaturation. If anything, it lacks saturation.

Only consoles get graphics downgrade. Unless it's a downgrade to match the consoles...
>You're the biggest mongoloid I've encountered on /v/ in the past month.
Are you retarded? Can you really not tell the difference from a staged gameplay that's literally on stage with turned off controllers to a gameplay where they actually let you play the fucking game and see it upclose?

Nope you're not. You're just an assblasted weeb, and you can't deal with the fact that your lord Kojima spouted a shit engine, which looks out of place on PC. It's a console port. It's not " mustard race " worthy. It's a shit port, locked to 60 FPS with PS4 tier textures. Don't damage control. Accept that as a fact and move on with your life.
The only reason you're hating on ArmA 3 is because, as a retarded weeb, you hate everything which is trying to be realist / tactical or any simulations whatsoever. Even if A3 had the best looking engine on the planet, you would still hate on it, because you hate the game. Therefore all your arguments are shit and moot. Fuck you.
