Advice on unity version to use

(1/1)

Hi Community, im new to making games (outside of basic movement in godot engine and gamemaker) my project scope is going to be VFX, 2d and lowpoly games. i was wondering should i use unity 5 or 2019 or even 2018? Im looking for something solid to start using playmaker with and dont know where to start. I guess to sum up what im saying here, is there any reason to pick any specific version of unity for what i want to learn to do and does it change how playmaker works? Thanks.

Hi.
My suggestion would be 2018.3 as nested prefabs are introduced here and its a big upgrade for prefabs.

I never use latest unity versions as there can still be many bugs, usually several major updates lower than latest.

if you are not in need of nested perfabs i would suggest latest 2017 build.

Thanks for the advice this sets me on a definite path to get started.

Hi.
I forgot to mention, older build still get updated for a certain period and they will only be bugfixes.

A good thing is also to use Unity Hub, this way you can have several Unity versions installed.
So when you have a existing project and you want to start a new one but on a later Unity version or if you want to try out a beta version
you can install it in the hub.

It will also detect what version your project is using
