1 year agoI don’t think you’re wrong, but unfortunately I don’t think that anything is going to change now. Realistically, it’s probably coming to the end of it’s supported life, and unless they start working on an ED2 I think there’s only so much that can be done with the existing engine; they’re not going to throw resources at it when they’ve got other more profitable IP’s.
This is only from what I’ve read, but apparently the Cobra engine is a pain to work with and many of the devs who were most familiar with it have gone. If true it would explain why it would take so much effort and resources (and the poor optimisation). But again, that’s only from what I’ve seen others post so take with a pinch of salt!
