JEDI_MASTA Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Why does LA need to rip off somebody elses engine, its incredibly pathetic to think that lucasarts cant make their own engine, because tons of other people make their own engine. its stupid to use somebody elses engine, because people will not pay money to play a game they've played before in the other game.

Sithmaster_821 Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Again another topic covered a whole heck of a lot LA definately should build their own engine, and I personally think that they were making one after FoComm and used ES's engine cause they were busy making their own and wanted to make sure there was a fan base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEDI_MASTA Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 lucas thought it would be a great idea to use the AoK engine for the fanbase... but it backfired and they've learned their lesson that the game feels old to people who have played AoK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simwiz2 Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Hopefully a GB2 will use its own engine. Even if GB is a far better game than AoC, ripping off an engine does not look good to reviewers and most of the buying public. Although it is funny that GB beats AoK on its own engine.

Crazy_dog no.3 Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Haven't u started a thread like this one in off-topic?! Oh and we are not n00bs as u have said there. What's wrong with ripping off an engine. Look at all the succesful games that have "ripped-off" engines: Counterstrike, Medal Of Honour: Allied Assualt, JK2, WC3 ( basically suing WC2 engine and a terrible game anyway, but look at how popular it is), C&C: Yuri's Revenge, etc. So long as it's fun it doesn't matter.

Sithmaster_821 Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Yeah, but this one's obvious (WC3 is a sequel, not a ripoff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 As for JK2, they used a heavily modified quake3 engine. It was very well modified and the game did not feel like quake3. SwGB looks too much like AoK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE_Vader_536 Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 why is it that lately people have been repeating things over and over again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorranSec Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Yet another topic that's been covered dozens of times before. Anyway, hopefully LA will learn from GB's lack of popularity and make their own engine for GB2. Enough said..... close this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
