Will the Dev's be upgrading the game to Unity 5 Engine?

And this is good so, because Unity 5 Engine is a nice Engine yes, but its eat a many Hardware and i think, this Game play a lot of people who has not a high end PC but can play just fine, if you use unity 5, this Player becomes Problems.
For me and i think for many other, the Game looks very nice and runs fine with a good Performance.

Upgrading to Unity 5 doesn't mean the minimum requirements will arbitrarily go up, Chamberlain. It only means they have better effects available - available, not mandatory.

And that's ignoring all of the lower-level benefits that aren't tied to visuals.

actually unity 5 will destroy the performance as it is even worse for multicore cpus

I watched 7 Days to Die upgrade from Unity 4 to Unity 5. It took them months, and it was a lot of hard work, but wow, it improved the look of that game so much and increased the FPS by 40% at the same time!

But that was a AAA game, I can understand why Naval Actions wouldn't make the same move, its a lot of work and it is only a $55 dollar game after all.

What, 7 Days to Die is an AAA Title?...how you come on this crazy idea? its an Indie Game not an AAA Title.

nearly all unity games have an issue with true fullscreen. they all seem to run on borderless window. i suspect this is the cause of many performance issues. but that quick alt tabbing though...

Erm 7 days to die is not AAA it is a indie game that got its starting funds via kickstarter.

The game is beautiful and stable as it is, let's stay with something that works.

It would obviously be a longterm thing - Possibilty even post-release to keep development somewhat tight. But there is definitely worth in going for the upgrade - both in terms of visual fidelity, but also better performance.

You're going to have to try harder if you're going to bait anyone here.

My dear Dr. failtroll, I haven't even begun to do so.
