Epic Games has shared a new batch of concept art for its upcoming entry in the Unreal Tournament series.
Art director Chris Perna and senior environment artist Rick Kohler discussed the artwork in the latest episode of the Unreal Tournament Twitch Stream. Also, Senior Designer Jim Brown and Cognitive Psychologist Celia Hodent discussed the User Experience in the episode.
A ”small team of UT veterans” started working on the game in May, and it will be completely free-to-play, according to Epic, with no microtransactions. Unreal Tournament will launch with a standard deathmatch mode only, but will be expanded later with Capture the Flag and Onslaught modes.
Unreal Tournament is in development for Windows PC, Mac, and Linux.
Hm, iskreno i ja sam razocaran. Epic ima odlicne dizajnere i umetnike, ovo je daleko ispod njihovog standarda. Stavise nisam siguran da nije neki fake u pitanju. Onog Skaarja bi ja mogao lepse da izmodelujem u Zbrushu, za jedan dan. Ni ta puska ne izgleda dobro napravljeno. A gledao sam galeriju njihovih radova na ZbrushCentralu, ti ljudi znaju znanje. Ovo nije primer tog znanja.
EDIT: da ne bude da samo pljujem, ovih par environmenta deluju ok, nesto sto moze da se pokaze javnosti. (mada nije njihov uobicajeni stil) Ovo ostalo deluje kako los portfolio.
EDIT 2: sumnjivo mi je i to sto ima taj neki jeftini ‘Az’ logo na slikama, umesto da je ‘epic’ watermark.
EDIT 3: evo sta neko kaze u komentarima, nisam proveravao verodostojnost:
“Anyway the concept art has been done by people not working for Epic Games from what i’ve seen on the UT forums cos they are getting the community involved in the development.”
Razumem ja sve to, igrao sam Quake i ovo svaki dan dok su druga deca ucili da igraju Counter Strike… Samo sto ovo stvarno deluje neinspirisano i bez maste. Imas gomilu nastavaka danas pa u svakom sledecem dodaju po koji novi detalj opreme, skinova i sl u “skladu sa vremenom”. Ali dobro, napisao Noodle da je ovo samo concept art od ljudi koji ne rade u Epic Games-u.
