NowGamer: id Software's Tim Willits gets technical with Rage on PS3.
businessinsider writes: "His exit came on Friday, the people said. Carmack, who has been openly critical of Meta's advancements in AR and VR, core to its metaverse ambitions, posted to the company's internal Workplace forum about his decision to leave."
I hope he starts up another new company and can get another new game engine on the market too.
He is like: "Im done with F#@#$%NG nonsense, pff Metaverse da funk I was thinking!!, Im out!! :D"
Yeah he put a smile in his face too in the end.
I hope he goes back to traditional games.
VR gaming is a flop and the Metaverse has (fortunately) completely failed to take off.
One of if not, the best game engine developer in the world. I hope he gets back into developing game engines.
They need to stick VR back in RnD departments everywhere that or let the porn industry lead the way like everything else that's been introduced then brought to mass market after porn made it a thing lmfao
Talk with Tim Willits and Oliver Hollis about upcoming third-person shooter Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2.
Legendary developer John Carmack reacted to the acquisition of Bethesda and ID Software's parent company ZeniMax Media by Microsoft:
"Great! I think Microsoft has been a good parent company for gaming IPs, and they don’t have a grudge against me, so maybe I will be able to re engage with some of my old titles."
This is so annoying that this much welcomed news comes AFTER Facebook deleted their VR for everyone not gullible enough to give away their whole privacy for pennies.
I would be so happy if this news happened a few months ago. Now I couldn't care less.
I wish I had the option to fully install RAGE on my PS3. I know there's a big mendatory install but full installation = best performance and minimum loading times.
If anyone was going to make use of the SPEs of the PS3 cell chip it's going to be John Carmack.
Good to hear that
Full install FTW. Might have to pick this up on PS3 if what Carmack said about texture pop-in at QuakeCon is true...
Don't care how good this game looks, the AI looks like it's going to be awful. Enemies doing forward rolls to avoid attacks? What is this? 1997? LOL!
