Epic: Thank you for everything!

Hello all Epic employees. Normally, I’m a bit shy to post on forums if I don’t have anything of interest to say, but the news I just read deserves this message.

I want to thank everyone at Epic for delivering these awesome tools to us. Though I never thought 19 dollars/euros was too expensive, having the engine available completely for free is in one word EPIC. You are absolutely living up to your name.

Then there are all those other stuff available: the source code (though I’m not a programmer, having access to the code is still great), the upcoming Nvidia Gameworks and sample assets.

So, keep at it and continue to live up to your name,

Sincerely, a very happy aspiring game artist/designer from the Netherlands.

Could not agree more! I have been a subscriber since about April of last year. When I started I knew absolutely nothing about game development but it was something I always wanted to learn about. I am now in my 40’s and having a blast with UE4 and the Oculus Rift.

The $19/month subscription was more than fair in my opinion and has been worth every penny. This is my first post on the forums mainly because I know just enough to be dangerous but also because the search feature found answers to every single question I have had. That is a testament to how awesome this community is and how good the tutorials and documentation are.

A big Thank You to the members of this community and a special Thank You to Epic for allowing me to play.

First time i post, i have played games 15 years based on UE and last year you made UE4 cheap with source code and now it is totally free, thank you EPIC you are really EPIC. I too do not have any skills about programming but thanks to source future is very bright for everyone like gamers, game developers, scientists, movie creators, simulations etc… I dream more about making movies with UE4 and maybe “Tiberian Sun 5”

You guys made my day when I was casually reading my email and all of the sudden I read “Unreal Engine is now free!”, plus we got $30 for the marketplace, epic can’t seriously get any better than this, from providing over 5mill in loans to projects to making their engine free.

Thank you Epic!

That’s why they are called Epic Games :wink:

Yeah, Epic is just epic, thank you for the good engine and the 30 bucks :slight_smile: I LIKE !!!

indeed. thanks for staking your claim on us.

Hopefully it ushers in some kind of fun indie era.

I guess no matter how many times I say it … it will never be enough … so I will just keep on saying it.

Thank you … the subs were never a problem for me … but thank you for living up to your name … here is to you all … good job … so long and thanks for all the fish.
