sorry if this is ofn, but http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=7322

 

Says that Duke Nukem: Forever will pwn Half-Life 2's physics engine. you can fully destruct everything all realisticly and stuff. there was somthing about a cloth spread between two poles and you could manipulate both the polls and the cloth would stretch and bend realisticly, and they put some tennis balls onto the cloth and they would roll on the cloth and effect it's shape, ect.

That's impossible on todays equipment, do you know how much processing would go into a completely destructable enviroment with realistic physics? Maybe when it comes out in 10 years we'll be able to play it.
I dunno, it said they tested it on a medium-spec labtop, and they showed a real-time demo of it to some people. Doesn't matter though, since Duke Nukem: Forever to come out will take... forever.

Well not really breakable tables + cups but the actual wall was shot at, and deformed. And the pieces that broke off could be kicked, ect.

 

Dunno but it could make a great construction / garrys mod type of thing.

Rigid body physics have been around since the PS1 days, and Splinter Cell already has soft body physics for cloth, so it's nothing new.

 

It's the same physics just with more collision detection.

ahh ok. I thought it was somthing new and special :[

Oh well I will post my latest rage then.

It won't be if they get taken to court over the name.

 

what name?

Stoned Gorilla']why are idiots still believing their lies; they haven't done one ounce of work on that peice of shit non-existent game' date=' they just brag about it all the time.[/quote']the moose fucker above explains it all.
They're close to finish it since they have something like that to show.

and they put some tennis balls onto the cloth and they would roll on the cloth and effect it's shape, ect.

 

omfg

 

you dont know how long ive been waiting for a game that will have such good physics as to see a tennis ball roll on cloth.

 

holy mother of god

I don't really care for games that re-create the physical world we live in. Playing video games is supposed to be about a superficial realm with extended boundaries for science and imagination.

 

Fuck the laws of energy and fuck Wayne Newton.

Gabe Newell and the bozos over at Valve are so retarded for shouting about their real physics crap when countless other games also have real physics like Thief: Deadly Shadows.

always been a fan of duke.... Its multiplayer was cool in the day too...

 

The game physics today are so good that i couldt see how it could surpass what there is today... well; they could do light minimizing time in water, using real calculations, um.... perhaps better code that follows what a physics book deems correct.... other cool things like radius of gyration and centriods would be neat... like a real sea-saw or something..... Ahh who am i kidding, those computer nerd dont understand all of that stuff.
