There is no prices change, but there will be a alot-cheaper upgrade solution for a7users if you upgrade in a limited time after release.

you have a point there but torque binary is like modding a game. The tools are all pretty but without source there are alot of limitations.(Programmer's wise. we spent 2 days only for some sort of injury/blood decal stuff on torque3d binary, turned out it was nearly impossible without source code access. torque script is not lite-c. It was a graphics project, we used ogre instead.), for short from programmer's pov torque binary is nowhere near acknex comm.

Also you can compera alot more diffrent stuff, i.e. udk is free it blows all indie-targeted engines in the market, for both power, features and tools wise.

This thread is for a8 release announcement, there are other engine vs. engine threads, so let's cut this here.
