No. Thats an utter fucking lie. Picoservers were designed for Unity engine. This game started out on Unity and they tried out Picoservers but that didnt work. The second they swapped to Unreal, the open world idea was dead in the water.
Ok, either way they decided to take a chance(like all games) and it didn't work. No need to get so offensive about it, details may have been wrong but bottom line the same. Tried something, didn't work. Moved on.
Who says Bandai or any other Publisher would have been ok with funding game development into 2017? Maybe Summer 2016 was the best deal they could get from anyone.
I'm not quite sure why all the blame is suddenly pushed on Bandai-Namco without any evidence to support it. Do remember, Eternal Crusade has experienced delays already, and they have made claims that "they already had the funding" and that it'll be "released when it's done". Both of those claims appear to be false.
Some of the fault will also lay with GW if this game fails at launch. On one hand you have a publisher rushing you and on the other you have the IP lords holding stuff back. Sounds like a bit of a nightmare scenario for bE to be honest.
Main problem - humans...We, who were here from the beginning or joined during Founder´s Access and so, understand those problems and we are pretty much Tau over there (I mean, patient as heavens). But if you release, we cant explain this to all of those milions of Steam users who dont know what is 40k and will give this game bad rating and bad review (last thing I want to see is "mixed" user reviews), becuase CSGO has more maps, understand the problem? People are stupid, I am happy if my game runs on more than 25 fps which it does now so I am playing it happily, because we have nice community and you Developers, are still updating this game, you are trying and doing whats in your power, but tell that to those people who will come from some DOTA or anything what is most played on Steam and will kill this game because they cant run it, it doesnt have enough maps, they dont understand whats going on etc. etc. I belive how this game is proceeding when comes to content its similar to how Warframe worked during its early stages before the arrival or Primes and so (look at Warframe now, how big it has become) stay close to community as you are now, and this game is on its way to become big, we must just hold and show them power of our Community, being it Humans, "were-humans (Chaos)", Greenskin, or we, the glorious Eldar race who will shine across the stars... no. And see? Eldard is a dick. He partly destroyed my post. Total dick.
People won't give this game a bad rating because they don't understand it, it's a simple lobby shooter with a 40K skin. If people give the game bad ratings it's because it's a bad game.
Lobby shooters are still a pretty big deal nowadays, mate. If open world FPS/TPS were so big, why would PS2 be struggling then? A close niche game with a close niche fanbase, growing gradually. I can live with that. But to be honest, I doubt ppl playing CSGO and Dota 2 will bother dropping 50 bucks for EC. They'd rather spend that money on skins and betting sites.
CS:GO is pretty big nowadays, other lobby shooters aren't really that big. Tbh I don't play PS2, I'm not informed enough about that game to talk about what is causing it to struggle.
