New engine

Post by UKARMYCADET »

This is in theory and i have locked my email box in anticipation for the "your a n00b mail" lmao

But doesn't anyone agree that the BF2 engine is old and tired now. The amount of time i have heard "it is hard coded" is not only annoying but limits the potential of this great mod, for example weather and "running whilst crouched" that is a very simple idea but due to BF2 engine you cannot do it :roll: . Same with basic camouflage it just doesn't exist in BF2. You cannot hide in bushes or shadows. In crysis if you hide in a bush it actually works like real life(as in it covers you up and you don't stick out.)

I don't have much experience in modding... but in theory how difficult would it be to move PR to Crysis. The engine is mind blowing and the physics are amazing and not the mention the graphics.
I think the Devs have done all they can with the bf2 engine and it isn't very realistic. which isn't very fair because it does'nt comply with the dream of this great mod.

here are a few videos to the crysis engine then i end rant lol.

For the rest of us:

There are loads more advantages but i don't want to make this post any longer.

p.s when i say realistic i don't just mean graphics.

god not anouther of these topics....

next time, please search, crysis has been suggested 100s of times in the past, and it dose not suit the needs of PR by a long shot.

When some one finds a engine with 64+ players, large maps with a min of 2km^2, VOIP and squad system built in or potential for and many things like that, then we might be intrested but the chances are one of the devs already knows about it before you do as we keep a very close eye on new games coming out just en case it will suit PR's needs, but at the moment, there is nothing that comes near to being better than BF2 for a current platform for PR's needs I'm very sorry to say.
