Porting to new engine eventually

Post by BaDaBoom »

Probably a bad time to bring this up due to the brilliant work just released with PR 9.0, but I was just wondering if anyone is considering moving the mod to a more up to date engine.
I have been playing BF Bad Company 2 beta and I must say that the Frostbite engine has some great potential. For some reason they left out lean and prone for movement, but the destructible geometry gives the game a whole new dimension. I know that porting to any engine would entail a huge amount of work and given the breadth and depth of the design based on the Battlefield engine you folks would largely be reinventing the wheel, but I think that eventually this must happen anyway. I love the gameplay in PR and if the engine never changes I will still be here for the long term anyway. I just wanted to raise the question and get some sense of the community opinion in the matter.

PR2 is planned for the C4 engine. There has been a lot of discussion about this already.

Please search before you post next time.

AFAIK BFBC2 is lacking mod support.

I wonder how many who would have never bought bf2 if it was not for mods like PR? Good mod support is good business.

DICE isnt releasing MOD tools for BC2 thats what they said so you couldnt port PR even if you wanted to
There is only one unforgivable lie That is the lie that says, This is the end, you are the conqueror, you have achieved it and now all that remains is to build walls higher and shelter behind them. Now, the lie says, the world is safe.? The Great Khan.

40k is deep like that.
