Description
I'm beginning to fall in love with the Unreal Realm. Looks amazing! I'm wondering how CryEngine will catch up to this :)
Youtube.com CryEngine just caught up
Not true! Both engines are so different to use when it comes to shader and project setup that I more and more refuse to compare them. Cryengine has proprietary formats (Like CryTIFF) and exporters for all of its crap. While Unreal works perfectly by dragging and dropping textures and models in the editor. Cryengine is a decent engine if you plan on future developments with the engine (and have a budget for it). It takes resources and time to get into. The same goes for Unreal Engine to some extend, but it is in comparison the much simpler engine to work with and now it actually has comparative results to Cryengine's lighting.
Crytek make nice demos for their engine, but they don't show you the pain in the *** it is to work with it. Today I can safely say that everything about Unreal Engine is better than Cryengine. I would not have made that comparison between UDK and CrySDK, but yeah - Crytek pretty much suck now. And they wasted an oportunity to present their own marketplace and/or indie engine. The Crytek subscription is a joke.
