Mixed opinions on it though, I don't like the whole map maker can sell their maps, It just sounds like a lot of money to play on servers that run customs maps.
That's a very good point wishful!
I never thought about the issue with servers hosting free and paid maps.
I wonder if they'll have another 'Make Something Unreal' comp? They should!
Yeah the new forums are rife with people complaining about how this will work. If things stay as they are, people who ask for money for their maps just won't get downloads most likely. I doubt server operators will put pay maps on their server because they know they won't get any players. Who wants to pay when the server travels to a map you don't have and you have to do a transaction before getting it off a redirect?
Personally, if I create a map in UE4, I won't ask people to pay for it... because I suck LOL! I don't think they thought this whole thing through very well and I expect this to change at some point due to the uproar.
again...it depend if it s a pure hobby or if you expect a UT map to be the start of a long carrier....it always make me laught when peeps claim to be pro...pro gamers...pro mappers...did u earn money with this?? lol by luck EPIC was a nice place to learn the difference and i dont know a lot of old scooled mappers who didnt land from their dreams of carriers...all this is about fun and freedom....hopefully...and if it s not , it s just no more the same adventure we started around 1999 :D
I'm very interested to see how it works out. I'd love the chance to make and sell maps for an Unreal Tournament game :P Speaking of which, any of you guys thinking about a map pack....? :P
