I don't use Origin but they have something similar I've read/been told.

I'm just to old school to fall for renting "my" games! But what do you guys make of that? 

Apparently the new "Holy Grail" of software companies is to sell their product as some kind of subscription based service.

This is Microsoft's plan for their Windows operating system, no reason why they shouldn't try it with games also.

The idea is to continue conning you out of your money for as long as possible resulting in much higher profit than a one time sale. 

#29087 top points for going for decent settings and not smoothed out bollocks, nice huh ?

Video games as a service......more disease.

Frankly thats almost already it on consoles with the stupid fucking subscriptions to be able to play MP...except they get you to buy the game AND pay a subscription, top kek suckers!

Looks lit bru.

Srsly tho - that looks really nice, and yeah - it would look nicer on a more hi-res model, but I like it regardless. Humph. 

That's in pretty poor taste 

Cancer? Seriously? A game skin?

What's with the verbal brutalism?

Then again, #29097.

Gaming forums these days. 

Oh, I think this community was always a tad brutal :D

crazy how 50k - 60k polys per model is considered a tight budget. Also, the end if the vid is gold XD

Possible? I know some alps use a Linux emulator to do Gimp and such on mobile, but do you know if there is something like Trenchbroom Mobile? 

We need this, so I can poop and map!
I think for mobile it would be easier to use Unity to make some simple editor and deploy it to any platform you like instead of rewriting TB for mobile. 

The overhead required for emulation and VMs on mobiles is still well above what they can manage easily.

You would be better off using a modelling tool, saving as OBJ and then converting to map. If only there were good modelling tools for mobile. 

presumably you could just compile TB for arm linux, set up some debian/whatever chroot on your phone, install some x11 server app on your phone, and run it that way.
it would need to be a good x11 server if gl rendering is going to work properly though.

of course, the lack of a physical keyboard with a shift key etc would make it totally unusable as-is, so probably not worth trying.

I'm certain most modern phones (and by modern, I mean one for which the following statement is true, which makes it all rather than most but whatever) would have perfectly adequate performance to run a native port of TB, if such a port were made. 

Press the screen and tilt your phone in the direction you want to move or expand the brush. 

Yesh keyboard+mouse is by far the faster means of mapping but...a simplified mapping experience could still be fun for waiting in long lines, waiting on your wife to get out of the bathroom, waiting on your wife to try on 10 different outfits before she comes out of the changing room etc.

Now if only it had Quake textures and export to .map then I could block in levels on my phone.

As it is I can sketch ideas. 

This is basically how I block out levels in TB
