Talking on sidelines, I really, really hope there is a new Unreal single player game that follow the veins of Unreal I. However, I do think given the complexity of post UE3 engines, it is extremely difficult for even a large community to push such a game out. Years ago I heard about a project that tried to recreate Unreal I in UE4 but never heard much about it. It just takes too much time and effort.
What's your call on this? Do you think it is actually easier for a small, dedicated team (say a couple of programmers, a handful of level designers and artists for example) to get the Unreal I remake in UE4 project done, maybe in a few episodes? The first episode could be from "Vortex Rikers" to "Terraniux", the second from "Noork's Elbow" to "The Sunspire", the third from "Gateway to Na Pali" to "Cellars at Dasa Pass", and the last from "Serpent Canyon" to "The Source".
- whywhywhywhy 5y agoWon’t ever come from Epic. Think with Fortnite their future has to be these mass multiplayer half social experiences where their advantage is just the speed they can ship content to it. It’s pretty impressive technically. But if you want games like old school Unreal I suggest you google “Boomer Shooters” where there are a lot of indie FPS games now that imitate that era.
- markus_zhang 5y agoYeah thanks I actually played some of them. Very interesting. Also agreed Epic will never make another Unreal I, neither a remake nor a new game. If one wants one has to build one's own.
