    I have. Oddly enough, I don’t remember any Gearbox game with a Gearbox engine?

    Take your own advice? What games do they have not on some other developer’s engine? Other than their initial expansions for Half-Life, which are basically mods for Half-Life, all the games I know they have done were built on various iterations of Unreal Engine.

    I don’t need to be a three star Michelin chef to realize that the plate of shit I have just been served is in fact a plate of shit. Similarly, I also don’t need to be a game developer to see that the buggy mess of a game gearbox just released is not worth my time.

    Gonna keep repeating it until it sticks:

    Don’t touch Gearbox shit. They showed their true colours when they embezzled Colonial Marines.

    Takes me back to 2008 and Rockstar claiming that GTA 4… was designed for hardware that didn’t exist yet after that shit show of a shitty port to PC… It would be a further 6yrs before I could play that game at a reliable 19080p, 60fps… then GTA5 came out a year later.

    Cheaping out on optimization is one thing, telling customers to basically eat shit if they have a problem with it is… something that‘s not gonna have any major consequences nowadays, I guess lol

    What a time we live in

      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.

          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

    My friend with a RX 7900 XT can barely run it.

    At 1080p.

    On Medium.

    Shove it up your ass, Gearbox.
