    I have slowed down posting because everything I read makes me want to complain, and I'm sick of being a whiny arsehole.

    15 hours a day and they can't evenfhsvfja garblrbw here I go again rabble rabble rabble

    At least it's semi-comforting knowing I'm not the only one pissed off.

    A multitude of all the population in this forum are pissed off. Hence the cool guys dropping out. It is a pain in the f***ing ass. :(. Nowadays the only place on this forum to have a frank exchange with a good person is on the irc...

    I just hate all of these damn arguments, and the really ignorant and stupid people that have come here recently. Also, the cool guys are maybe not here atm because mods are not being released nearly as fast as before.

    I feel like the problem is how a decent number the older members, myself included, word their responses. If we all just though about what we were saying before we said it, the forums would be a much nicer place. A lot of us just give rash, half-assed answers that come off rude and mean (I do it too sometimes). I feel like a large part of the problem lies with us 'veteran' members who have been on the forums for a decent amount of time and are on the forums a lot. We see the same thing over and over and over and over, and it can be frustrating.

    But it really is sad to see when someone posts a suggestion that has been posted a couple times before and is a really good idea and the community shoots them down and tears them apart, scolding them for not searching. I understand that there are times when you can facepalm and shake your fist at someone who suggested something like multiplayer, but when someone suggests something reasonable and first reply is "FFS does anyone ever search. <insert link to one other thread hear> Use the search bar next time" and their linked thread was from 4 months ago, it's really annoying. All we are doing at that point is turning off the newcomers. Who wants to be a part of a community filled with assholes?

    Agreed. It's hard to be a part of a community like this, but we'll deal, we'll make it through. We could use a few more moderators though. (I'm not asking for mod. I don't have enough time anyways)

    You're one of the "older" members at 17?

    There's your problem...this place is full of children.

    Hi everyone.

    I have just looked at the unreal engine 4 trailer and I must say it looks amazing, this led me to think however, how much time would it take to port beamng on to it, as in my opinion, it has better graphics and seems to have quite a nice editor.

    also, if any of the devs see this, would unreal engine even work well with beamng?

    thanks, destroyer

    The forum has only been around since August 2012 and prior to the release of BeamNG the age restriction was 13 not 16...

    Re: General discussion chat

    My point was: You guys discussing the "problems" of this board being
    people that "give rash, half-assed answers" and that it's because of the
    redundant content and questions and the lack of effort on the part of
    the new posters and blah blah blah...

    So maybe I misspoke when I referred to it as a "problem".

    This sort of communication is "normal" for children...
    They generally lack maturity and discipline, and the ability to
    form educated and logical responses without emotional input.

    So, basically, it's not going to change. :p

    The problem is not whether it's normal or not. Arguing on the internet is very normal. But just because it is normal doesn't mean it isn't a problem. I know it's not going to change, but bringing the problem to the forefront is the first step in at least trying to make it better.

    If you say that a 17 year old is a child, there is something not right. Age does not matter as long as you are mature. Seriously, I know some 7 year olds that are more mature than a lot of adults in my life. Stop picking fights with people.

    Kids will be kids, that's all.

    A child is one that cannot take care of themselves,
    needs constant care from their parents, ie: food,
    clothing, shelter, transportation, etc. Most, not all,
    you're correct, but most teenagers rely on their
    parents. They are called children.

    I'm not picking fights, I'm expressing my opinions.
    An adult would know the difference...:p

    No it wouldn't work destroyer as beamng is based on torque3d which is designed especially for soft body physics. If we were to base beamng on unreal engine 4 it would be extremely hard to compile. It might not work altogether.

    Actually, BeamNG is running in the Torque3D graphics engine. The video engine has nothing to do with the physics in BeamNG. BeamNG is the physics engine. Drive is the name of the game. Back in the very early vids where it was on cry engine, it wasn't using it for physics. Just graphics.

    The issue isn't young kids on the forum, the issue is all the stuck up assholes here that migrated from the horrible RoR forums. :|
    Ok, and maybe the few mentally limited kids.

    I feel like we'd have an older userbase if the developers started with drivetrain physics and worked up to the damage from there.
