  • Buy Construct 2 and learn it, then move to C3, the knowledge transfers and if you take 3+ years to get to a level where you're ready to make full games with it then you've already saved a years' worth of subscription costs training yourself. You would still be able to release games / etc. made in C2 of course, even on consoles thanks to the Chowdren exporter (not free)

    *this advice is only valid for personal licenses and while C2 is $199.99 USD and C3 is $99 USD per year, if C3 drops in price or C2 rises in price again then ignore it

    You have given a really useful advice here...

    However, some C3 advocates will soon jump in to cut you out

    This thread was about the subscription, but you turned it into the showcase of your low level class, and how badly you try on sarcasm when you don't have any answer to defend yourself. How old are you ? 12 ?

    Please don't reply back. I'm allergic to bulls**t replies. Would rather talk to someone intelligent, cause this representative have already ruined your reputation scirra. Rather not make it worse.

    Mods can close this thread.

    Firstly Im not against Scirra... and not the kind of fanboy who blindly follow their favorites.

    No matter what they do! And frantically posts long replies and dumb questions just as a bad attempt to defend whats wrong.

    You know how a team works ?

    When you talk, listen to criticism/suggestion and do whats best for everyone.

    Sorry but if newt have checked before posting, I would have not been explaining this:

    So, Unreal does 2d?

    Yes, It Does !

    So Unreal does mobile?

    Well, here are the platforms that unreal support, maybe you find your answer here:

    iOS, Android, Windows, HTML5, Oculus, SamsungVR, PS4, XboxOne, Nintendo Switch, Steam, Ubuntu, Daydream

    And more.... Phew !

    So does anyone know what 5% of 3000 x 4 equals?

    Sorry, let me Elaborate this: If you make upto $3000 in a quarter, you pay Nothing !

    Anything you earn more than that in a quarter, you need to pay 5% of that.

    Does anyone want to go looking for developers that decide not to pay when they succeed?

    Well, if im making more than $3,000 a quarter, I would pay them their share even before they ask.

    Now, someone will say Im Unreal's marketing manager... lol

    ( has already told me to get lost to unreal... yeah? This is how you will defend it)

    And to rephrase correctly what you said, "up until construct 2", it had been standing strong against stencyl or game salad if I may mention them.

    Again, as construct is a light weight games and apps creator, and users are mostly not coders/developers.

    This shows that not everybody is earning from their creations, most of the users are creating stuff just to promote themselves, their business.. or even just as a hobby.

    You need to be a giver first before you expect to be a taker.

    Lastly: If you don't want to take suggestions or criticism and don't want to work on it... Why have a community ?

    Should open a ticket system.

    I was going to suggest few options which can be beneficial to everyone, but I guess 6 men can climb the mountain without any support. Good luck.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

    Even I mentioned this in my "open topics" post...

    C2 and C3 merely have any difference, Just like any new mobile phone launched, increase some numbers, slap an updated UI and you have a new product. How will we earn more ? Lets make it a subscription and increase the one time price of older C2 (Just like apple reduced the speed of iphone 6).. followed by Evil Laugh !

    Have anybody in Scirra heard about "Unreal Engine" ???

    The game creator light years ahead of Construct... Well, sorry to say, But we cant even compare the two.

    Do you know their policies ? Well, please allow me to shed some light here:

    The Engine is Completely Free to use at its full strength !

    Their motto is:

    We Succeed When You Succeed

    "Once you ship your game or application, you pay Epic 5% of gross revenue after the first $3,000 per product per calendar quarter".

    This is what you call, Business Ethics !

    You cant expect every individual to pay a monthly fees, only because I have published a game made with Scirra... Even if my game doesnt do wonders (which is actually the case with most of the developers as there are thousands of game releasing every day)

    Also, Why do people forget what happened to Nokia, Blackberry, Windows OS, Stencyl

    They did not listen to the "USERS" The people because of which you exists.

    1. There was not such rage seen by the users at the time of Construct classic or C2.

    2. No Significant Difference in the latest version.. Please admit it.

    3. Even the famous C2 developers, plugin creators such as Pode, Cranberry, RexRainbow, lost interest in Construct 3

    Is is not clear yet ? A Draft for future Wiki page "Construct 3 was the disaster which lead Scicca to close down"

    I have tried Godot, But I didnt find it anywhere close to C2

    It has visual coding, but you should know C++ to do major tasks, Im a designer, not a coder (so it didn't work for me). The engine UI doesn't look solid aswell, Also limited help resources..

    The closest to C2 that I found is "GDevelop" its literally like a C2 Sibling.

    If you want you can try that out, its Free opensource.

  • Yes, I was about to mention that in my main post...

    The only plugin which makes 3D possible for c2 was Q3D... but its outdated and no further development has been done on it.

    Also because, its been a year since C3 release, so there is no point of talking about C2.

    Cranberry has also seems to lost interest in C3

    It pretty clear... its not working out :(

  • Hello,

    I know lot of people have already talked on this topic here....

    But being a big Construct 2 fan, I want to point this out.

    As Scirra has already made decision and came up with construct 3

    TBH, Which is like an updated iPhone 7 to iPhone 6

    For me, the closest and easiest Game creator to Contruct 2 was buildbox 2,

    but it lacked event based or any kind of coding at all.

    But now, it has taken a leap forward and bringing 3D GAMING Update.. Buildbox 3

    Along with Node based coding which can be further edited via Javascript

    But they are taking huge steps... and lot of other game engines are also aiming for 3D.

    Whereas for Scirra, I believe had they released Construct 3 as a 3D gaming engine, it would have been ground breaking. It would have become close contender to Unity and Unreal.

    Please do let me know what you guys think ?

  • AaronSmithUK Thanks, it worked and im able to run it on my desktop... but I want it to run in kiosk mode.... fullscreen, without any bars on top or bottom...

    How can I do that.... Please reply

  • In XDK, add this plugin: cordova-plugin-ad-admob

  • . Kyatric . TELLES0808 . Ashley

    Sorry... by browser plugin, I mean "browser object", (just in case if it sounded confusing)

    I did few tests and in my case its giving error while adding browser object...

    To reproduce the issue: Add 2 objects, sprite object filled with any color and Browser object > export to cordova with minify checked

  • Kyatric

    Ashley

    I found some more details, this might help...

    This error only comes up if you are using "Browser plugin" in your Project... c2 v240

    without the plugin, you wont see the error and the project will be minified without any issue.

  • Oh.. sorry, there is already a post in bugs related to the same issue...

    for others having the java issue, refer to this post in bugs forum:

  • Hello,

    I updated to the latest v240 64bit

    and its giving me Java error and not minifying,

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/247 ... _error.jpg

    I have the latest 64bit jdk installed and also using the 64bit C2

    Plz help....
