It was beyond reason why the initial release had so much packed into it. With all that development experience available (specifically Hall, Romero, Spector, Porter), it's amazing that someone didn't say anything about sheer size of the project.
Also, too bad the archives didn't save comments.
Thanks!

DAAAAAAAMMMMMNN!
Just boggles the mind that they could even be thinking about the next game, with all the crap that was going on with the first one.

Tim Sweeney on OpenGL / Unreal [11:45 am]
Check it out, VE fired some email over to Tim Sweeney asking about the performance of Unreal using OpenGL acceleration. He has a few theories about the performance issues, here are a couple of them:
Theory 3 (general purpose equals slow theory):
OpenGL has a ton more options for texture formats, memory layouts, etc than OpenGL and Glide, so hardware vendors don't have time to optimize for all of those cases, whereas they can for Glide and Direct3D.
Theory 4 (Sweeney sucks theory):
Tim's OpenGL code sucks (judge for yourself, it's available on http://unreal.epicgames.com).
;-)
Hehe.
