NVIDIA PhysX effects in Hawken

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 01/31/2013 09:33 AM | source: | 66 comment(s)

One of the new games with PhysX support is Hawken, a free-to-play mech-based multiplayer shooter. NVIDIA created a video that shows off the game's PhysX capabilities. Developed using Unreal Engine 3, Hawken looks fantastic, putting players in the cockpits of lethal mechs, each with their own weapons, loadouts, and perks. Through kills and match victories, players will rank up and unlock new items for their mechs, opening up new tactical opportunities and new play styles. Being a free-to-play title, players also have the option of speeding progress along through the use of real money transactions, though these do not grant additional power or a competitive edge over players who progress through exclusively through the use of experience.

Is that this year's solitary hardware PhysX game then? ;)

Looks good but I'm surely not the only one that feels like PhysX potential has been squandered by NVIDIA due to it not being fully supported by AMD cards (software, yes, but not hardware). As such there's little reason for developers to use it which is a shame as with better optimization and more support it would have been nice to have had as an extra in PC games not just one or two per year.

I don't care about PhysX.
Sure it looks awesome but I just don't like the idea that all this would be possible for all cards but just isn't.
It also holds games back in my opinion.

Why bother when half of the people can't even use it, and some of those 50% or whatever won't have the card to enable them anyway.
