Now watch as some determined lunatic codes a new engine and somehow ports all of BL4 to it.
And gets hit with a C&D the day before release
Coffee Stain managed to get UE5 to keep window settings between sessions, but what do they know? Certainly not how to not fix an inventory screen bug that’s been in 4 games at this point.
Randy pitchfork is a piece of shit that needs to stfu
I don’t need to personally be an engineer to call out a train wreck when I see one…
Randy isn’t even an engineer, he just owns a train.
I’m not a pilot, but if I see a helicopter upside down in a tree I’m pretty sure someone fucked up.
Oh, I was unaware randy coded unreal engine all by himeself. I take back every negative thing i ever said about the fucking Twat
Yeah, fucking what?
What the fuck does that even mean?
Randy is… what… when was the last time this asshat even wrote any code, much an less engine?
20 years?
No, seriously, when actually was the last time he wrote any code?
He founded Gearbox in 99… and by 2005, they liscensed UE 3… prior to that, they’d been working with UE2… and Source…
I think you have to back prior to Gearbox, to Duke Nukem 3D and Lo Wang, to find somewhere Randy may actually have contributed to game engine code.
In conclusion: Fuck you Randy.
You’d think since 2005 they’d be experienced enough to know how to work with UE but noooo…
To be fair, it seems only Epic themselves know how to fuck around with UE5 nowadays. That nanite lighting, temporal antialiasing and dithering everything makes everything look like ass. Games from 2016 look better
Maybe I’m just wildly crazy here, but I think a $70 game from a big studio should run well.
We’re not talking some $15 early access title here that lacks optimization because it’s like 2 guys making it in their free time.
He’s just mad that he’s not as good at making game engines like Id, Valve and even Epic did.
I wasn’t going to buy this game at all, but now I really won’t buy it.
What an ass.
I was gonna buy it when it was 50% off with the dlcs included. Now, gotta see that performance first.
Randy, you molest your employees with that mouth?!
Seems fine in performance mode on PS5. Windows users having trouble?
It’s funny given they use unreal.
I run a 7800X3D on and X870 mobo, 64gb ram and an RTX3090, and couldn’t run it at my native 7680x2160 resolution and have a playable framerate. It was fine at 3840x1080, but randomly crashed to desktop (at 1/4 my normal resolution, that I can even play Star Citizen at.)
I refunded it after 3 hours. This was before Randy’s ridiculous response to the criticism. I was planning on buying again later when it’s fixed, but now I’m not so sure. The man is his own worst enemy.
He’s a bell end. He’s always been a bell end. I had the dubious pleasure of meeting him when I was working as a games press outfit’s tech monkey over a decade ago at Gamescom in Cologne.
Every other word out of his mouth was a business buzzword, he’s smarmy and smug, my skin crawled the whole time he was present.
It looks like he’s as high on his own farts now as he was back then.
I feel like they’d make more money if they targeted lower end machines. My friend has a potato laptop and would enjoy borderlands, so they’re out of luck. They’re not going to spend any money on a new gaming toy because it’s not that big a hobby for them. I imagine there are many such people.
Yeah I’m pretty sure for $70 a functional engine should be the bare minimum.
What a fucking chode.
Does borderlands really “need” some bleeding edge engine?
Its not a terribly complex game? And nobody gives a shit if its a bit janky.
Borderlands, like its movie, is the kid who gets an ant farm for his birthday, pulls out the tubes, shoves one end up his ass and starts sucking the farts out with the other.
Yes, its entertaing, but nobody expects it to be high-class.
for real though why don’t more companies license idTech
I mean… You first?
I think that’s exactly his point.
