I want to start learning the mobile game development, so I spent some time googling this niche.

This is something entirely new for me, so I would be thankful if someone with enough experience can tell me the difference between Unreal Engine and Unity3D (pros / cons)... from what I've read so far, these two seems to be the leaders, but I really don't know.

Thanks!  ^_^

I have been using both. made small things just to experiment.
My opinion is that (at least on first look) UE seems more powerful than Unity. though that's a first impression.

By default UE graphics seems better than Unity, same goes for physics engine. 
(Keep in mind that UE has blueprints too that makes it easier to handle some things).

In the end though try to make something small on both engines and then choose.
I think in order to choose you have to think what you want to make.

From what I see, there are a lot more mobile games using Unity3D than Unreal Engine. But I don't understand why is it the prefered one.

UE allows you to go deeper with many things but Unity3D has anything you might ever wanna do in a mobile game so UE is overkill for mobile.

Also licensing is another thing.

Isnt the major difference fact that UE is cpp and Unity c#?

It's written in C++ as I read... it only uses C# as a scripting language which can be replaced by JavaScript for example.

No Unity is C++ too. You can script everything out using C# but it will compile to machine to in the end. It's using reflection to do that.

It this licensing model still valid? http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/7720/is-unity-really-free-.html

It states that you are free to use it as an individual without any restrictions... or I'm wrong?

Don't count on '09 posts, these things change on a weekly base, both UE and Unity licencing can become painful if you target big / commercial

Classic answer from amateur dev: Powerful = better

 

This is bullshit, UE has nothing more to offer than Unity to a med-front end developer than Unity, that being said UE is prefered when you MUST squeeze the most out of your renderer, using unsafe C++ syntax. A very back end story that's waste of time if Unity is enough for you.

 

To make a long story short UE is an overkill for a simple and personal game development.

This is not licencing, this is custom packages and support, you should just get started with the Free until you fully develop your application, you should care about licencing later

Well, I think the license part is also important... that's why I still don't want to use C#. :D

    • I think that solves the freeze thing, anyway great share! 
    • Introducing: Daily & Weekly Missions!   I've released a major panel update with a new Missions system and expanded language support.   Players can now complete daily and weekly missions directly through the panel and claim rewards such as balance or items. Mission progress is tied to in-game activity and supported panel actions, and the update also adds a dedicated Missions page, dashboard mission previews, claimable mission indicators, and full admin tools for creating and managing missions.   The Roll page now shows the potential reward drops below the roll container.   Alongside this, I’ve expanded the panel’s language support with new locale options, including Bulgarian, Czech, Georgian, Lithuanian, Polish, Romanian, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.     The Demo is now updated with the new features for you to try out!
    • I sell complete packs. If you want to add an item, NPC, etc., you have to do that yourselves. Your friend bought the pack; he's the one who needs to configure his server type. He received what he bought as agreed, and I'm saying this without knowing who you're talking about, because anyone who buys something receives what was agreed upon.   Regards. mmmmm L2Velmore ????   If that's the one, I see everything went well... if I remember correctly you were crying over $100, I gave you a better price, and I suppose you made thousands with that... And you're still coming back to complain? :=)
    • I know many people have struggled with this specific issue and had trouble setting up the correct behavior for Toggle skills in aCis. By default, toggles interrupt the player's movement (retail-like), which often feels clunky to players who prefer a smoother, more modern experience. I've prepared a clean solution that eliminates this "freeze" and allows for fluid movement while toggling your auras. Below is the code on how to achieve this. Hope it helps! Changes in PlayerAI.java: Modified doActiveIntention to properly update the active state without stalling. Removed the forced stop() during toggle casting. Added a MoveToLocation broadcast to ensure other players see your movement correctly (prevents visual "teleporting" or desync).
