Unreal Engine 5 in AOC?

Will Ashes of Creation use UE5? I'd love to see it in this game. It looks pretty awesome and a lot easier to use.

Well if they don't use it they should definitely try to copy pasta some of it, I am by no means a developer but that thing looks super convenient to use.

For Props art its really nice to use the Nano. Cause it avoid the need of a Low Polly model. But for moving assets (Characters) not sure its there yet

It seems to me that moving to EU5 would delay ashes at least by a year - because there are a lot of differences and the custom changes they did especially concerning networking would mean that they would have to go back to making the game work instead of developing the actual game systems

A while ago they updated from one version to another and broke a bunch of the game and pushed the alpha back several months and the nerds lost their minds over alpha being pushed back. That was all within UE4.
I imagine going from UE4.26 to UE5 would break a lot of stuff the devs would have to go back and fix pushing the project back even further.

Personally i wouldnt care about pushing it back for a better End result but Might just be me

To a point I agree. However you need to make a call and say this is what we are doing vs constantly chasing new tech that you will never be able to keep up with.
If the small upgrade within UE4 took a couple months how long would it take with a big upgrade? What is the financial cost as well. Paying devs and everything else that is involved with running a business that has little to no income. Nevermind all of your potential customers waiting for you to quit messing around and launch your product. Like Star Citizen planning to launch somewhere close to 2050 at this point.

Graphics are not that important compared to gameplay. To some degree graphics loses value while stability gains value. Ya as long as they improve as much as makes sense I don't really care that the graphics aren't so good I feel like I'm actually in the game. xD

Does anyone know how easy/difficult it is to convert high-poly to nanite compatible formats?

Tragnar

using nanite on meshes isnt hard - it is just a question if its properties didnt get messed up in some way

I think UE5 at the moment would be a disaster, as people would need super top end PCs to play which would heavily restrict the player no.s but in the future could be nice.

that is actually incorrect, because the technologies they introduce in ue5 is actually improving the quality without additional hw power - so the minimal requirements for ashes wouldnt rise, but the lowest graphics would be better

anyway the problem with ue5 is that they would literally have to get back to the first internal alpha stages fixing everything that the transition broke - which would be an awful lot and the release would be delayed in terms of years and not months
