Yes, uploading Unreal Engine demo in 1080p is very helpful. Thank you

[@DontLoveNone]

fr we need that 4k quality in 2024

[@joejones1991]

Insane capabilities. But we warned. Companies that use this engine for their games could get lazy and game might look good but could be completely empty inside.

[@TheJiminyJim]

so nothing new, same as always

[@tmiles807]

This is what we have seen. A generic sweep of games. A over populated market from Indie devs that can't afford the work force to create original content, flipping assets. I understand why some do this, cost and what they can do. However if just becomes the same and the market looks generic and like you said empty. Worse and less forgivable is AAA titles doing the same.

Keep in mind that people made the same accusations when the industry shifted from all studios having their own in-house custom engines, to using a pre-made engine like Unreal or Unity. While there will be lazy studios who don't bother to change much of the stock features, other studios will take advantage of a lot of the tedious work having already been done for them, to be able to focus more resources into the unique aspects of their game.

[@landturtle7470]

Lazy devs would do that anyways regardless of how easy the engine is to use, so I'd take that in exchange for the upside of actual passionate devs that will use this engine to not spend so much time and money trying to make a different engine and the bare bones foundation of their games, instead they can focus more on small details and things like mechanics and deeper stories that make their games unique

[@mapowey7214]

actually i foresee the opposite. since its so easy to get good graphics with unreal mow, competent studios will use the saved time and money to make their games more robust in other areas. incompetent studios will do what you say yes, but we know who those are and we are already cautious of their releases. i see this as a huge step in gaming and we will have a renaissance of unique and exciting games pretty soon because of it.

Real time cloth physics has be hyped. With how amazing games can look now, seeing baked in wrinkles and folds in clothing is really showing how limited they look when shown in motion.

[@albinowolf8453]

They mentioned Metahumans, but I do not see The Flash. They might as well post him the game.

[@theminecommanders8013]

There's already a Flash skin

[@fireaza]

The spruce-levels of wooden delivery makes me trust this video. It's clear from the stilted narration, that these are people who are actually involved with the technology. Not showmen who are just repeating what they've been told to say.

[@niroumand]

Hi, does anybody know where can I get the project file for this chaos cloth simulation setup? self collision handling is difficult in chaos solver

[@nerdglider]

They created all these tools for UEFN but you still have to use MD to make clothes? Why not mention a blender workflow

[@Otis151]

A little too technical for my understanding, but it looks really nice. 👍

[@outdated_person]

"Alien Isolation" And Fortnite?

[@PACSAX]

Is this coming to console?

[@BRIGHTJUS]

I swear Save The World Graphics are Literally are fire 🔥

[@outdated_person]

It will be cool if this ship is in the Fab, NOT for 100 thousand dollars!

[@Rehd66]

Yes Epic, that's what we want. Completely realistic npc's throughout our game with a Fortnite player character...🙄

[@MrStrangermoon]

Real time cloth physics was so advance on nocturne game like many things such as blood physics. terminal reailitty nocturne engine when unreal 1 on 99. the ship can be unreal engine 5 powered but look worser than alien isolation.

[@FLY_876]

Can we please play that😅

[@KennyGorehound]

The camera is too far back for them to act like it’s a fps.

[@realpinez]

Its adjustable

[@gamechannelminecraft6583]

Hello everyone, good viewing🐼

[@placebo9127]

Wish they would use this stuff to make cool events, not lame singers pointing at us and us floating around doing absolutely nothing.

[@Smuggerino]

Should've used Raven Team Leader fr fr

[@friendoftheshow3382]

Fortnite has come a long way & ppl still won't play save the world😂

[@saverorestuwatari8420]

Tbh the game mode is has like 10k player count everyday

[@Virnith]

@@saverorestuwatari8420yeah people really underestimate that number

[@MoeePlays]

Badly presented

[@Pieces_InTheGame]

How so? 🤨
