Ta gra prawdę mówiąc prezentuje się najlelpiej ze wszystkich gier co widziałem do tej pory i to na wszystkie platformy.

Oby tylko grywalność dorównała oprawie :)

[TrueVanDal]

Ta giera zarządzi!!! Wreszcie coś dla czego warto mieć X360 ;) (z mojego punktu widzenia).

wszystko na UE3 bedzie wygladac podobnie

[TrueVanDal]

@Sulaco

GoW to Exlusive na X360 więc nie wiem jak by to mogło u Ciebie śmigać (podejrzewam że b.dobrze ;) ). Na PC pierwszą grą na silniku UE3 będzie chyba UT2007. Wtedy sam zobaczysz co i jak. A czy wszystko będzie wyglądać podobnie? IMO to zależy od programistów. GoW i UT2k7 wyglądają wprawdzie podobnie na swój sposób (modele w obu grach są robione trochę "na jedno kopyto") ale to chyba specjalny chwyt żeby kojarzyć "to co dobre" z jednym silnikiem. No i za obie gry odpowiada Epic więc...

 

Swoją drogą szkoda że ta gierka nie zmierza na PC ale kto wie, może po dobrym przyjąciu na X360 postanowią wydać ją też na PC (wiecie, pieniądz nie śmierdzi ;) ).

[Przemol^N]

Swoja droga to ta gra bez XBL duzo stracilaby na pececie.

IMHO Crysis zabije wszystkie gry na UE3.

[kojak_ct]

Niekoniecznie. UE3 to inne klimaty, Crysis inne. Obydwa silniki będą rządziły. :)

 

I tak jak już kiedyś pisałem. O ile na dzień dzisiejszy nie ma gry, która przekonuje mnie do Xa to GoW może sprawić, że po wyjściu pójdę kupić X360. ;)

[TrueVanDal]

IMHO Crysis zabije wszystkie gry na UE3.

Może tak być chociażby z powodu dodatkowej obsługi DX10 czego UE3 w "standardzie" nie ma. Ale na DX9 chyba będą stały obok siebie jak równy z równym ;). Inna sprawa że gier na UE3 zobaczymy więcej niż na CryEngine 2. UE3 od początku był robiony z myślą o jego sprzedaży "dla mas". Sporo czasu zajęło pewnie przygotowanie silnika tak aby był on "przyjazny" dla końcowego developera, w końcu nie płaci się tylko za "power" ale i za łatwość obsługi. No i UE będzie dalej rozwijany więc nawet jeżeli czegoś mu brakuje teraz to w przyszłości "załatanie dziur" to pestka (CE2 też się to tyczy oczywiście).

[mastertab]

Fakt dołatanie czegoś do UE3 pewnie dla developerów będzie łatwe, ale jak to się odniesie do sprzętu wystarczy spojrzeć na engine z Call of Duty 2, który to jest przerobionym enginem Quake 3, dodanie paru efektów z dx9 powoduje spadek prędkości o 200-300%.

[sideband]

przecież już dawno zaczęto prace nad unreal engine 4 , który pewnie będzie wspierał dx10 i inne kosmiczne efekty :)

ale mi porównałes, U3 engine do Q3 :lol:

 

Lepiej to porownywac z U.Engine 2, który jest wykorzystany w choć by SC:Chaos Theory. Jakos doczepiony wagon efektów nie spowolnił gry o 200-300%

splinter cell jest na tak zwany UE 2.5

UE 2 nie ma zadnych efektow SM3.0

2.5 to taka faza przejsciowa .. wlasnie na nim jest splinter i kilka innych gierek

... co jednak nie znaczy, ze ulepszanie U3 engine strasznie go spowolni.

[TrueVanDal]

... co jednak nie znaczy, ze ulepszanie U3 engine strasznie go spowolni.

No raczej nie przyspieszy ;). Ale wydajność w "znanych" DXach nie powinna się zmieniać. Zresztą MS przy DX10 obiecuje cuda, szybszy rendering itp. Może i coś z tego będzie ale ja jakoś wątpię.

 

Tak w ogóle to schodzimy z tematu ;). Trzymajmy się "sedna". Nara.

[BezbronnyPL]

Oto wywiad z Timem Sweeney'em opublikowany jakiś czas temu na forum nVNews.Jko że jest on odpowiedzialny za Unreal engine 3 -stwierdziłem ,że wkleje go w całości i wytłuszcze co ciekawsze fragmenty.

 

Jacob - How will UT2007 use Ageia enhanced physics effects? Increased object count? Fluid effects?

 

Sweeney- Anywhere from explosions to have physically interacting particles... we are also looking at fluid effects to see where we can use those, gee, blood spurts sound like they might be a good candidate! A lot of other special effects like that, where they don’t affect the core game play, so that players with the physics hardware and players without the physics hardware can all play together without any restrictions.

 

Jacob- There was a lot of controversy with the recently released Ghost Recon, where some players got lower performance when enabling Ageia effects because the video card has to render more objects. Is that something that should be expected or should frame rate be the same?

 

Sweeney- For the record, acceleration hardware is supposed to accelerate your frame rate, not decrease it! [laughs] That seems like it’s just a messy tradeoff that they made there. You certainly want your physics hardware to improve your frame rate. That means that the physics hardware might in some cases be able to update more objects so you can actually render another frame, so you need to have some sort of rendering LOD scheme for that to manage the object counts, and obviously you don't want to take this ultra fast physics card and plug it into a machine with a crummy video card. You really want to have a great video card to match up with your physics hardware and also a decent CPU to have your system in balance to really be able to take advantage of the full thing.

 

Jacob- How about Ageia effects over a network? Is that supported or is it Client side? I imagine trying to push that amount of physics data through the network, there might be a bottleneck.

 

Sweeney- There are a number of networking solutions for physics, what we are doing in UT2007 is using the physics hardware only for accelerating special effects objects, things where the server tells the client, Spawn this special effect here! The client responds with an explosion with thousands of particles, and each of those operates as a separate physics object but it doesn't effect the game play... it’s just purely a visual effect there. That’s the easiest and most common solution.

 

Some of the other solutions it looks like other teams are using are only enabling the physics hardware's networking on a LAN environment, where the entire physics state of the world is being replicated to all the clients, that requires a vast amount of bandwidth, more than even a broadband connection has there, so that’s not very practical.

 

The other approach is to run a peer to peer lockstep game, which would be ideal for like a fighting game or some other game with 2 players or 4 players playing against each other where the entire game runs in lockstep, everybody has hardware and the entire game state evolves deterministically on all of the machines.

 

Jacob- Havok recently announced the ability to accelerate physics on the GPU. Is that necessarily a bad idea?

 

Sweeney- That’s a good approach, they have some good technology there. Havok has a physics system that runs largely on the GPU to accelerate the computations there. It seems to be a lower precision physics than you have for the rest of the game which is problematic. You really want all the physics in the world to be drawing with a constant level of precision, so you don't have to make weird trade-offs there. I guess there is also the trade-off with that, if your GPU is doing both physics and graphics, then you are not getting the full utilization out of the system.

Jacob- Have you guys ever considered the possibility of maybe allowing console players to play against PC players in UT2007? Or is it too difficult to balance the different players?

 

Sweeney- The question of PC players playing against console players, or even console players on PS3 playing against Xbox360 is really more of a game play question than a technical one, because right now we do support running a PC server having PC clients join and play alongside PS3 and XB360 clients in our games networking framework. That basic approach works, but on XB360 side Microsoft has chosen to keep the network completely closed so you won't have PC players playing on XBox Live. Kind of an unfortunate decision, but it allows them to secure their network and control it carefully which you kinda want in a console environment. On PS3, we might actually enable that. When we get down to balancing the game to really play well on a controller, if it turns out we don't have to change the game play significantly, then we will enable PC players and PS3 players to play together, and we are really looking forward to that. We really like the idea a lot, and it looks like Sony will be very supportive of the open network approach.

 

Jacob- It seems like both Nvidia and ATI are looking at unified shader architectures, instead of separate vertex and pixel do you think that is beneficial to gaming on a graphical level?

 

Sweeney- Having one unified shader architecture enables you to do dynamic load balancing. Some scenes have an enormous number of pixels with a small number of triangles or vertices some have huge amounts of geometry with simple pixel shaders. You really want to have all the computing power in the chip utilized all the time and that means being able to shift the resources around between any potential use pixel, geometry, vertices, or just general computation that you are happening to do on the GPU. So I think, this is just the very beginning of a long term trend in where GPU's will become more and more generalized and eventually turn into full CPU like computing devices. Obviously the problem that GPU's are optimized to solve will always be a very different problem than CPU's, but they will certainly become more and more general purposed, to the point where you can write a C program and compile it for your GPU in the future.

Jacob- This isn't really a UT2007 question this is more a UE3 question; Do you guys have any plans to add DX10 features to UE3?

 

Sweeney- Oh yea absolutely, we will have full support for DX10, we will use their geometry shader stuff to accelerate shadow generation and other techniques in the engine, we will be using virtual texturing. With both UT2K7 and Gears of War we are offering our textures at extremely high resolution like 2000x2000 resolution which is a higher resolution than you can effectively use on a console because of the limited memory, but it is something that certainly will be appropriate for PC's with virtualized texturing in the future, so we will whole-heartedly be supporting DX10. It’s hard to say what the timeframe will be on that because Vista could ship this year, or next year, or whatever. But, we will certainly be supporting it really well when it comes along.

Jacob- And ten years from now do you vision that we will see... GPU's handling graphics, and PPU's handling physics, CPU doing A.I. and that kind of thing or do you think we will see some kind of blend of the 3 technologies or maybe 2 of them?

 

Sweeney- Looking at the long term future, the next 10 years or so, my hope and expectation is that there will be a real convergence between the CPU, GPU and non traditional architectures like the PhysX chip from Ageia, the Cell technology from Sony. You really want all those to evolve in the way of a large scale multicore CPU that has a lot of non traditional computing power as a GPU has now. A GPU processes a huge number of pixels in parallel using relatively simply control flow, CPU's are extremely good at random access logic, lots of branching, handling cache and things like that. I think really, essential, graphics and computing need to evolve together to the point where the future renderers I hope and expect will look a lot more like a software renderer from previous generations than a fixed function rasterizer pipeline and the stuff we have currently. I think GPU's will ultimately end up being... you know when we look at this 10 years from now, we will look back at GPU's being kinda a temporary fixed function hardware solution, to a problem that ultimately was, just general computing.

Jacob- And this isn't really related to UT2007 or UE3, but I'm sure you have heard John Carmack talking a lot about megatexturing and how he uses it. I was just wondering what your thoughts on it was?

 

Sweeney- So, megatexturing is this idea of applying absolutely unique textures to every object in your environment everywhere. Computationally it looks kinda difficult because our resolutions are always going up at a steady rate, the amount of detail on our environment is increasing and the sizes of our environments are increasing. This, to me implies that you want to reuse your content very frequently. You want to be able to build a mesh in one place and reuse it hundreds of places of the environment just with minor modifications here and there. So, if your going to move in a mega texturing direction, I think you really have to look at that in the context of a larger material system that lets you instance objects and share assets and not have an explosion in the amount of content creation work that’s required because if an artist has to sit down and paint every little detail in every object in the world, that an uneconomical approach to game development. So in order for Mega texturing to work on a large scale, I think you need excellent tools, for being able to reuse, instance and reuse all this data so you save the artists time and they don’t have to rebuild custom things all over the place.

 

Jacob- Just a few more questions here, kinda of in tradition of last year.... R600 or G80?

 

Sweeney- Ha-ha, well at Epic we are using mainly the Geforce 7800 and 7900, we have a few ATI cards, they perform really well and we are really happy with the solutions from both companies.

 

Jacob- One more question, kinda in the same fashion, Conroe or AM2?

Sweeney- Haha, well that’s hard to say, I don't know much about AM2, but Conroe is a really fantastic chip. The funny thing is very few people in the industry have been willing to come out and say that the Pentium 4 architecture sucks. It sucked all along. Even at the height of it's sucking, when it was running at 3.6GHz and not performing as well as a 2GHz AMD64... People were reluctant to say it sucked... so IT SUCKS! But Conroe really makes up for that and I am really happy to see that, that Intel is back on this track of extremely high computing performance at reasonable clock rates. Not having to scale up to these extremely hot running systems that require a lot of cooling. I think they are on a good track there and if they scale the Conroe architecture up to four and eight cores in the future, then that will put the industry on a really good track for improving performance dramatically at a faster rate than we have seen in the past.

 

 

Jacob- Will UE3.0 support predicated tiling to make use of 4xAA on Xbox 360?

 

Sweeney- [/i]Gears of War runs natively at 1280x720p without multisampling. MSAA performance doesn't scale well to next-generation deferred rendering techniques, which UE3 uses extensively for shadowing, particle systems, and fog.

 

 

 

Starałem się podkreslić co ciekawsze fragmenty-generalnie wywiad dotyczy UE2007 ale i GoW i w ogole Unreal Engine jako calość,a zawsze główny programista jest najlepszym żrodłem.

Co do Gow-wersja na PC ma być ,tylko ukaże sie jakiś czas po premierze wersji na x-kloca.

Pozdrawiam wszystkich!

[kojak_ct]

Widzę, że cieszą się z DX10 i jak to mówią będą mieli pełne wsparcie. No i najsmutniejsza rzecz dla konsolowców. Już teraz programiści mówią, że konsola ma mało pamięci więc za 2 lata to może być poważny problem do bardziej rozbudowanych gier.
