reminder that i still need to play original Prey to feel bad about system shocky/half-lifey reboot by arcane. Thanks for heads up!

The Id Tech 3 was overrated Id Teach 4 was underrated and forgotten by developers.
Logan Murphy
it's legit the Crytek engine of it's time
every turbo nerd was circle jerking it
3 had to contend with a ton of competition and the arrival of the new consoles that took heaps of attention away from it
The only engine that competed for most overrated engine was Source, but people were way more interested in the lighting effects back in 2004. It's forgotten now while Source is eternally jerked off sure

id Tech 3 was perfectly rated. id Tech 4 was trash. id Tech 5 is shit.
John Lewis
id tech 4 is a heap of shit and runs very poorly on modern systems.

Why would you feel bad. Original Prey is just a whatever-tier fps whose only notable part is its opening.
Lucas Allen
i know this is some low tier bait but heres your (you).
in the event that you really do believe that. zoom zoom

Anyone with Prey 2006 or Quake 4 comment on the game's multiplayer? Never finished Quake 4's Single player and forced myself to finish Prey 2006's and wondering if the mp is decent.
Elijah Robinson
Tech4 was forgotten by developers because Carmack was a dick about licensing it and no one really wanted to touch it with the whole patent issue, so only their long time buddies got a hold of it.
Nathaniel Howard
What's the lastest game that used it? Brink?
Anyway, the player movement in that engine really feels weird, unlike the rest of the idtech family
Evan Stewart
Also, the gunplay in the engine also feels awful too
Nathan Hill
>i know this is some low tier bait
Not bait. The game is just Quake 4 with portals. Not bad, not great, just whatever.

fuck bethesda and fuck 3d realms

Can't say much for Prey but Quake 4 had decent multiplayer. Not Quake 3 tier mind you but I would say
Quake 3 > Quake > Quake 4 > Quake 2
Prey suffers from a combination of neat concepts that doesn't get expanded the further the game goes on. The setting, portal tech, weapons and movement are good, but it doesn't really go anywhere by the end of the game.

you can stop posting now
Jaxon Ramirez
I'm sorry but that's how I feel about it. The game starts out neat and everything and I like most of the ideas, but some of them didn't go anywhere in a meaningful way past the half way mark and nothing came close to going to the spirit realm for the first time.

Prey > Q4 > D3
Mid-2000s FPS were terrible, though.
Julian Phillips
Wonder if it's possible to play Prey online with the cracked version since the master server is down and the game does direct IP for multiplayer. After seeing this

Quake 4 multiplayer looks interesting seeing how it looks like it has sliding.
Jace Martinez
Quake Champions has a couple of characters that can Q4 slide, Slash and Strogg I believe.
William Brown
Quadrilateral Cowboy was the last game to use it.
Brink is also interesting because it did virtual texturing better than Rage.
Kayden Morales
You forgot 2
Daniel Watson
Riddick used its own custom engine.
Samuel Cook
Really?
It totally looks like Idtech 4
Isaiah Morgan
Why would you feel bad about such an amazing game? that shit almost made me glad they killed Prey 2.
Parker Hill
>no one really wanted to touch it with the whole patent issue
seemed more like a thing of id providing zero support to developers trying to use it
they were just kind of giving a "well the code is all there to read so you know what to do" kind of stance to everyone, unlike what was being done with the unreal engines

classic carmack
Jaxon Foster
His wacky antics means we're stuck with Unity and Unreal everywhere these days.
Sebastian Hughes
Arkane's Prey is legitimately a game of the decade candidate.
Leo James
all they had to do was read
