Not to give the designers 1000 more heuristic knobs to tweak, and the developers 1000 more complicated subsystems to babysit if they want the "cool features"
It's fuzzy memory but I'm pretty sure I played with that thing a lot... I thought that was ridiculously awesome, but the game itself I never finished because I had Halo
the original CryEngine was designed to push the boundaries of then-current graphics cards, by incorporating a longer draw distance, better vegetation rendering than almost anything commercially available at the time, no loading pauses, and HDR rendering.
I put effort into hacking Crysis to run with "Very High" graphics settings on Windows XP and I thought the technology was ridiculously awesome, but the game itself I never finished because I had GMod :P
Well, he's not not afk? That's kindof like not being afk just doubled right?
Garry's mod is indirectly why I hated Minecraft so much...
MC was a severely watered down, reduced form of GMod suitable for people who find coloring with crayons too difficult when there are no lines to color inside of
That sentence alone just proved that you not only don't understand GMod at all but also that you've never actually played it either
Holding a mouse while a friend says "Try build mode!" doesn't count.
Garry's mod is more about survival than MC.
more moddable, more buildable out of the box anyways
You can implement 100% of Half-Life 2 on top of Garry's mod... Or you can use it exactly as minecraft building only cubes restricted to a grid with only "weld" mode
You can play on a server which limits your resources, and only rewards them for mining.
You can trivially see that MC does not satisfy its own goals because it requires heavy modding to be "fun"... people build novelty logic out of redstone because it's the coolest thing you can do there. It takes a half fucking mile square of land to build a basic calculator.
Minecraft has "build tools" outside the game, because the game's purpose of building is inadequate
In garry's mod, electronic components were one of the very few (2) mods people often installed.
It was very normal for people to build autonomous flying drones with targeting weapon systems in garry's mod.
(Out of raw low level logic hardware and basic build tools)
Basically... GMod is Minecraft for intelligent people.
So naturally, GMod is strictly more functional in every dimension, and MC is strictly more popular with the average human.
@AidanMueller You did just give strong supporting evidence of my point though. You have proven absolutely that 100% of people setting out in the defense of minecraft in this specific situation have dire logical error in their interpretation of my argument.
I just said you obviously haven't played it, which was half joking half serious. The serious bit was because then you'd be aware that the "purpose" of MC is a strict subset of the "purpose" of GMod
Right, like I said above. But, that doesn't mean that GMod does not provide literally every single function of MC though.
And that does not even try to dispute the fact that GMod's implementation of every single notion provided by MC is strictly a more functional superset.
Also, my language is not stupid-compatible. I do not use heavy redundancy and error checking, I expect you to not just parse, but also validate until you find the logically consistent parse.
@AidanMueller You don't need "minecraft mods" it's built in. And yes you can procedurally generate a level, some game modes used that but it was a lame feature when you took it in perspective of what a game engine can actually do.
Random block world is only cool if it's the only thing you have, you get bored of it in moments when you have random vector world.

I more or less directly answered your subtly implied ad-hominem retort, before you even said it :P
I just think that using GMod to play "Minecraft" is kind of silly when you could just play minecraft itself, and then have access to all of the servers that other people who also like the same style of game would be on.
Long before a stupid-friendly version came out where you didn't have to think about what shape to use? Cube. Or what constraint to join the pieces together with? Weld.
I didn't say that all users of A must be doing B, I didn't say that all people playing GMod are using it to play "Minecraft". I'm just saying that if all you want to do is play Minecraft, then it would be a waste of time to use GMod to perform the same functionality of Minecraft.

> And while Amazon stresses that developers don't have to buy server time from them (it's not needed for single-player games, for example, or if companies have their own private servers), they're not allowed to use rival cloud services from companies like Google or Microsoft.
that being said, I'm also working on a VN project in Unity in my spare time, and that's going quite well. We're tightening up the system design around animation right now, and integrating that into a command system I implemented for integration with our dialogue engine
pretty soon we'll be able to have people show up on screen and talk about being in an underwater casino, while they zip across the scene
...or if you find trouble just pull on the rope and we will try to reel you back to safety but be warned many have been lost to the void of best practices among ambiguous specifications. Good luck @Garan
Asteroids has brilliant controls, and most of playing that game is learning to use the controls to win the game. My style in that game is to fly around (some players trade on aim and sit still), and it's really, really fun to do that.
I didn't start doing that until I was in a huge grind to get to I think 1 septillion cookies or something ridiculous like that. When clicking the golden cookie is the only thing to increment you on.
AdVenture Capitalist... once you have auto-click, clicking doesn't help. I like that; it doesn't encourage cheating because it doesn't encourage you to click.
Ok, so here's an odd question (and if it should be an actual Question, let me know): How can I disable and enable Unity canvases/UI objects so I can switch between several UIs?
Man... I stopped taking my medication because I want to not be drugged all day every day but I haven't been productive enough to eat a meal in some days now... let alone make progress for clients or shower or anything like that lol
Why can't you deal with my way of life, world? I can knock you over, you know?
