Are anybody using CryENGINE
Are anybody using CryENGINE 3? And why not? With Unity you need to fork up 1500 to even be able to create anything usefull. With UDK you get a great tool and all features "for free", but it's not...
I'd recommend looking at: http://docs.cryengine.com/ (the extra s changes everything) for the latest CryEngine 3 docs. I've started playing around with it recently and though it is Windows-only, they did look to hire a Linux developer at some point which leads one to believe that OSX and Linux support might both be coming since they both use OpenGL. I have yet to try my Rift with it but the results you can produce with it quickly are unparalleled in the free engines out there :)
Plus they have a C++ SDK which gives you some pretty deep access which is also useful. Its a shame UDK doesn't. Unity has decent access but you'd need the pro for full plugin support and the results don't look as good out of the box if you're a lowly programmer :) I'm excited to play around with CryEngine for now.
Good luck!
