good question . Why nobody at CCP thought about incarna running before 2020 on actual pc-systems as expected...?? Smells a bit like cind of a hoax...and food for investors...
I think humans would rather be able to populate Mars in RL, than CCP manages to find suitable solutions this way for WIS and their player-community right now;
1. create a working, USEABLE basic engine for WIS
2. You can improve the "look" every 2 years a bit - like you already did it in the past.
This would have been much more ecconomic than creating an engine that nobody can use today (and nobody can benefit today: not community, not company) - It does not re-calculate, unless you invent cind of a "shop"-system to refinance the developement costs....which hopefully does not happen and take place, now.
Ridiculous, that a software company does not spend enough attention to such basics...

As for the OP, the entire point of CARBON is to create in-house tech as a long-term asset. Licensing UE3 (and other tech for that matter) is the exact scenario that CARBON is designed to avoid.
nice to read that...but Iam afraid, as we all do know now: It does not work.
If it would work - and if it actually would have been solved - we would have WIS already in Crucible. The fact that it is NOT there is, that tehy obviously have technical problems with their engine ...as you can read in the forums it sadly is not possible to "WIS" with more than 2 people at the same time, which is absolutely inacceptable concerning the developement progress (and of yourse its resulting stagnation)
And that leads us to the question: IF we cannot use it in the near future - WHY, oh why should we buy good looking items and dresses for our avatars? Just to refinance teh developing costs? Big lol here.
That "plan" was a pure fail from its very beginning. The question is now how to reduce the "damage" and how to make WIS still usefull and avilable for community;
The "cheapest" and fastest answer would be to use alternative 3d engines to keep progress alive, to avoid a Duke nukem forever scenario (the message is: "eat the bread, when its hot....") and do not set on time....which CCP actually does not have in this case... |

to be honest, I think it does not matter WHAT alternative engine it would be exactly, since it fulfills the whole wanted function - in a usable way of course.
This would be a good first basic step....contrary to all the CCP "magic", that actually does not take place before 2020...lol
...would you wait another 5 years for WIS togehter? I dont think so.
