    I need more caffeine before I'd tackle seeing what UDK plans to do in regard to ARM support with Metro...

    Meh, Colossal Cave was done in FORTRAN.

    Hrmmm, should ask if Unity has a Fortran addon. :)

    With Epic and Steam's support you sell more that you would have with Unity and despite the 26% figure, you still earn more.

    Heh, oops :) Honest mistake! Didn't mean it :D

    Maybe in Paris? I don't think in the USA it is nearly 50% taxes :p

    Honestly, UDK 3 is a big masterpiece of crap. You really can see everywhere that they never ever intended to be that successful. It is a holy mess of failed software engineering. I also don't see what you think is so great about. It is hopelessly complicated and confusing to work with this monster (because of the crappy design), and it is as well static, just as Unity is, if you don't apply some vodoo magic.

    But dude, wait for UDK 4 and the world is good again. This complete redesign seems to hit the spot. At least they learn from mistakes.

    Dropping UScript was a great idea. Unfortunately I doubt that they will give access to C++ in UDK 4, so Kismet might be all for the free users.

    Haha I'm really sorry :) I think USA has a LOT less tax than nearly every other country (that HAS taxes).... I don't know if I'm correct, but I think I am...

    I honestly don't think it is that complicated...

    Hells yes.

    C++ source code access? No. C++ Scripting Access? Yes. That is what I think.

    With socialism rearing it's ugly head we're not far behind. Capitalism isn't perfect either, in fact everything involving money is attached to some kind of evil.

    Will deny nothing here :) I don't think America is coming close to socialism to be honest. Socialistic ideas? Yes. But not socialism in itself.

    Capitalism perfect is definitely not a true statement, so I agree with that. BUT, Capitalism IS better than nearly every other form of economy.

    *note, I meant no offense by that last statement.

    C and C++ with supplement assembly language are what is used in anything that has to be fast and tight.

    You sure that should read some kind of evil always seeks to attach itself to money?

    Regardless of which one initiated the attachment, they are attached and my statement is valid.

    Yeah well I do want to sound like a jerk so, "evil" is a mental property and is not inanimate but rather a highly complex biochemical neural metal process. (I don't know anymore big words)

    So.... inanimate? :)

    It's not a living in any way. It's just a mental process.... ;)

    A mental process is apart of a living thing. More to the point as a mental process is can influence physical actions giving it the ability to attach it self to other objects.

    Evil is more of an... idea than anything else. Evil is a per-person idea, :)

    1. A thought or suggestion as to a possible course of action: "the idea of linking pay to performance".
    2. A concept or mental impression.

    P.S. We are veering this topic way off topic.

    This forums are somethimes way too offtopic, personal or either have nothing to do with development. Side effect of this is that threads with development value (informations) drown in this pool quickly.

    If he would just admit I'm correct, we could get back onto topic. Using UDK.

    Wow a civil discussion about UDK on the Unity forums. Seems the community here has grown.

    I've since gone back to UDK after waiting around for Unity to fix their engine. Little has impressed me since the launch of 3 and Unity4 isn't added anything worth my time.

    For ease of use Unity takes the prize, no doubt. I wish all programs were as user friendly.

    But for development power and control UDK beats everyone. Unreal4 also looks stunning and seems to be learning from Unity about how to make an engine and IDE. UDK right now is still a pain in the ass if you don't know what your doing.

    I love both engines!

    Agreed xD

    I agree. I have found nothing more intuitive than Unity.

    And again, I agree. The development power and control of UDK is outstanding, equal to CryEngine 3, at least. And also, UE4 does look absolutely stunning, beautiful. I can't wait for the UDK upgrade to it.

    Same here. Both engines are amazing. But so is CryEngine 3 :p

    Yes...will UDK support deployment to Metro on ARM?

    (As an aside, I'm still curious about the Unity support for this - the one article linked in another thread gave the appearance of it being more about being able to develop "legacy" games to run on Metro).)

    Jeez sorry for starting this awesome nice conversation. Anyways UDK is less user friendly in my opinion while Unity is very easy to use.

    In my experience, UE3 is slow to iterate with. It looks like they made a point of addressing that in their UE4 video, which suggests that it will remain an unsolved problem for UE3/UDK.

    Just look at the main page of the gossip section there is already a 60 page thread on it :D mostly hate though.

    Unreal engine costs much much more then Unity....

    Obviously you did not watch the video. They improved far more than just the graphics.

    You don't really "Improve the graphics" since graphics are the developers choice, I think it's more of a "Improved the rendering pipeline" ;)

    The new features remind me of the Unity editor a lot, like the details panel, the instant play and the interface changes.

    No, I simply merged all the recent UDK threads together. If you guys want to talk about UDK here that's fine but we don't need all these threads about the exact same topic.

    Funny thing, the two most commented threads are Unity 4.0 and UDK 4.0. Wonder why ... :rolleyes:

    Same iteration number, same first letter, nearly same wording visual ...
    The marketing departments of both engines might be very nervous, right now :p

    You really don't think that they're going to ship another example project with 4.0? I mean, at the start of the 3.x era we got boot camp, right? (Or was it earlier...)

    Anyway I'm sure Unity will have an example DX11 project to show us.
