[QUOTE=BmB;24088941]How can it be an awful engine if the people who actually knew what they were doing split off to make their own because the X-ray engine sucked balls?[/QUOTE]
Metro 2033's isn't all too great.
I really hope STALKER 2 is going to be something awesome, and it probably will. They better stick with X-Ray though, the rumors of it being on the Cry-Engine really get me pissed. I want to be able to play the game without it raping my below mid-range PC.

X-Ray is better than 4A, performance-wise
They also have less shit going on from the looks of things.
To be honest, I hope they keep it on Xray. Xray may not be the best engine but I like it. I can't imigine STALKER without it. Plus, can you imigine a STALKER without bugs? I've grown to love the bugtrap screen :v:
It's a "new, multiplatform technology developed by GSC" though, so chances are it's a completely refactored and massively improved X-Ray 2 engine.
That or it's a patchy piece of shit now ported to OGL and XNA.
Yeah, I'm really hoping they put it on XRay 2. Hopefully that will be a huge improvement over 1.5.
