Thinking back, all the vehical 3D art we saw in this video has been done for a very long time.. Thus no real effort lost in drawing a wellington.. The effort (time, money) lost of late is making these things manable.
So looking at it from the point of view that 1C is trying to keep investors happy.. i.e.
1C -> Investors: Hey you all know how much $ is being made by games like BF3.. Look we can do the same thing with our game engine with every little effort
If that is what 1C is doing.. Than I am all for it!! Get the investors to invest, and get the BF3 noobs that like to drive jeeps online.. Just more targets!  |
100% correct there Ace! They are trying to make investors happy so they will get funded to make a game that will sell well to a potentially very large group of people instead of just cater to a handful of "extremist simmers" on a banana colored forum.
It's kind of a miracle in these days that CloD even got released in the first place, broken or not. People wonder/complain why Ubisoft didn't market the game better. Might be because CloD is an insignificant little speck of a game compared to big releases like Assassins Creed and the likes. CloD is a game, doesn't matter how you twist and turn it, it's a game and a super niche one to boot. Ic/MG are trying to reach out to a wider audience, good on them!
