The GDC 2015 hype Thread

EPIC is going to stream GDC from their end. I am assuming that There will be livestreams on Twitch as well :slight_smile:

Cool, so it is the american one. What did i get backwards? im confused xD

For those of use who can’t attend the actual conference, is a GDC Vault subscription worth it (US$495/yr)?

It’s hard to tell from their website which talks will have full video in the Vault: http://www.gdcvault.com/help.php#14

That page says to use the Scheduler to see what videos will be recorded, but I must be missing something, I’m not seeing it: http://schedule.gdconf.com/list

$500 is a lot of money to scrape together, but it’s still cheaper than going to the con itself :wink: But it would be painful to pay that much only to find many of the talks unavailable…

I’d love to see the glNext recording but you’re right 500 is a lot of money…I just want to see some Source 2 engine demo :slight_smile: I think we might have some more info about UE 4.8 at GDC also?

Agreed on the glNext talk and many others (so much VR!)… heck, even if I could manage to go there are so many cases where I’d like to see two or more talks occurring simultaneously, that video access after the fact would be the only solution.

There’s actually quite a lot available for free from past years, but it’s only a fraction of what members can access:

You can click the icons in the left margin to filter by video, audio, and/or slides. Everything shown there with a star icon is ā€œmembers onlyā€, but it still looks like maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of the content is freely accessible.

At least I’m looking forward to seeing what Epic streams on their Twitch channel :wink:
