Very robust engine

  • October 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Graphics quality is amazing, the lights are very well made. It's pretty simple to use, it has a nice interface and the performance is great. It integrates with Maya so you can render the viewport with production materials and lights, it's also good to speed up render times for animations. Good for both games and animations. You can create AI even without coding, thanks to the blueprnits
What do you dislike about the product?
The materials are quite nonsense, for example glass is tricky to set. There are no physical parameters to set, but only numbers that modify attributes in an arbitrary way. The sequencer is good to render videos of animations, but it needs some refine because sometimes the interface is not clear enough. Maybe not the best choice for small games.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using it to avoid days of renders for my animations, it runs real time flawless with a great quality.

Amazing game engine to work with

  • October 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is such a wholesome and easy game engine to create what you desire. the blueprint system couldn't get any better and easier. of course it is not easy for a newbie but you can learn as you go.
What do you dislike about the product?
Like I said the blueprint system coding is amazing, but it gets confusing sometimes and there no way of telling what you are doing wrong, a helping system could get implemented on it that might help users to correct their mistakes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No problems yet so far. The benefit of it being absolutely free. just the 5% they take after you publish the game which is really nothing at all compared to what they give you in return.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just play around with it for a while, don't let it get in your head at all. It takes time to learn this engine.

Unity and unreal developer

What do you like best about the product?
Unreal is used for developing games, software and other using c++. The power of the engine is awesome and the are many free and paid assets to make your projects better.
What do you dislike about the product?
The control system when user is in editor mode is not bad but there are other engine like unity3d that have a control system better and more intuitively
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
User friendly interfaces that allows user to develop easily 3d world an objects. The most benefits are the possibility to search documentation and the power of system.

What a beast for real time rendering.

  • August 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The amount of tools you get in this app is like no other. The ease of use beats every other platform out there. All the competitors are playing catchup with the ease of use in Unreal Engine.
What do you dislike about the product?
It’s still a big learning curve but there’s a community out there to get you through it. That is, if you're dedicated to learning all the intricacies of how the software works.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a game engine, the benefits of the innovations in the software are immediately appreciated. They are able to do real time visualization in a way not many other apps can. Look up the Childish Gambino tour to see how people are really pushing the envelope with the tech.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot, it's free and you can really get a lot out of using and learning a new product. You might even develop the next killer app. A great example of someone who picked it up and made a product who could revolutionize how films are made, is Matt Workman. He created an app called Cine Tracer that helps filmmakers visualize shots in 3D with sets and lighting much like a real world application. If you can dream it, you can achieve it.

What do you like best about the product?
Unreal engine is widely used for the creation of high profile Triple A games. For a wide assortment of circumstances, Unreal Engine has more functionalities and usefulness, which is absent in different engines with a comparative kind. Unreal Engine has better qualities for the various kinds of graphics and also houses better visual editors.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the down sides of using Unreal Engine is that for the working of Unreal Engine, you need an authorized copy of it for working and even need to pay the five percent charge once your game profits. Unreal engine is never recommended for creating simple games and it is an engine that is widely used for creating high profile games.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stunning Engine 4 is without a doubt a standout even amongst the best of game engines. Its graphical power and ease of use settle on it an extraordinary decision to build up a videogame, both for vast Triple A studios and little outside the box studios. It has vast upgrades in lighting, impacts and surfaces that approach the video games.

What do you like best about the product?
Dark Mode. My eyes thank it. Great workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
UE4 Asset store is tiny and really pales to Unity's asset store.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making interesting game experiences.

Great game dev engine that rivals Unity's ecosystem. Not nearly as user friendly due to native C++ implementation however Blueprints are a godsend when quickly protoyping.
