BioWare has stated that Frostbite is no favorite among game developers; not a good sign. “Frostbite is like an in-house engine with all the problems that entails—it’s poorly documented, hacked together, and so on—with all the problems of an externally sourced engine.”
Is Unreal engine better than Frostbite?
Unreal worked better for them. Less glitches, dialoige system etc. Frostbite is pretty and makes everything work nice but it was originally made for fps like Battlefield (especially since DICE made it). … One thing to consider is Unreal is kinder to older or lower-end hardware.
Why does FIFA use Frostbite?
The overarching goal is to leverage the abilities of many of our game teams to produce an engine that delivers world-class games. For FIFA, the move to Frostbite allows us to develop new features that were not supported by the previous engine including the new cinematic story mode in FIFA 17, The Journey.
