now, what im gonna do is visit ONE STAR AT A TIME, see just how far i'll get before i die of old age. my guess is that id explore 0.000001% of the galaxy by then!
@SuperYouUber There will be various gameplay mechanics that will force players to congregate in the central systems, plus players will start in those central systems.
i will pay 1000 bucks for this game, only to get lost into space, i give a dam if that space has no ppl , i just wanna go in the deeper space, i m loving this game
The main starting are will be the 4 cores, of the NPC nations, where people would start out and meet other people, there will be cities there and big NPC populations. As the player base becomes bigger people can move out from the cores to colonize or do as they wish exploration etc, and there is Gas Giants.
@LordYuHuang 4? There are only three nations (The Deltan Federation, The Star Fold Confederacy, and the Centaurus), where did you get the idea that there would be four nations?
one thing this game lacks is giant earth like cities and seems like there is no jupiter like or saturn like gas giants. othere than that this games looks awesome and could easily surpass eve online cant wait for it to come uut i want to voyage through space. SPACE THE FINAL FRONTIER!

holy shit...bigger than spore ! xD well...i think this will be the best game ever ..when you can be an empire too...i heard that you can ...it will be awesome when you can blow up planets or make holes in it..may with special weapons like big ships have...it will be soooo awesome....my gawd
People are being drawn to this for the scale and the effort that the developers are putting into this game.
People who gripe about physics and dimensions and Lagrange points should try THEIR OWN hand at making a game like this. Bitching doesn't get you anywhere, and no one ain their right mind plays a freaking VIDEO GAME for realism.
@Tricanis go watch other videos of infinity. Each of these square is a star with a solar system. You can go to each planet and it has awesome grafics. You can see rocks, lakes, trees. Everything real sized. But yes it still needs work, that's why its still in development. this is only a demo
How do procedurally-generated worlds retain distinguishing characteristics (i.e. - could you revisit something you encountered months or years prior)?
The level of detail most games exhibit today (that are made by big companies, too) is usually boring at best; VERY boring ("Elder Scrolls" and such being minor exceptions)... That said, how on Earth will procedural generation populate over a million planets and create what's needed to be a fun game to play?
Not to detract from this game in development, but if you guys are interested in something similar; at least within the stars/galaxy part, though only partially mapped out, check out Celestia the astronomy program. It lets you fly around the Sol System and millions of stars within our Galaxy and also has other galaxies in their locations (though they are just placeholders).
@Armageist Celestia is cool, but check out Space Engine for procedurally generated universe with complete star systems and planetary terrain to explore
People are going to be playing this game their entire lives; they will start out as teenagers and rise up and become warlords and coalitions, and eventually grow old and die, without ever meeting people on the other side of the galaxy, doing the exact same thing; whole civilizations and empires will rise and fall without them even knowing......and it will be good....oh so good.
on the oficial site it says: You will not be able to visit them (worlds) all in your whole lifetime, even if you were to spend only one second per world!
I clicked on this video because of the picture and watched it thinking, "ok, this is a model of the entire universe, cool", paused to check out the title to be sure, clicked out and saw the word galaxy (ONE GALAXY) and my mind explodjsf ,mnsdsdjbjv s,dmnnbfshdbhf,s. sdkjflsghdjbvskjdhbvdsmv.djskdbjsdf dsjhvusldsjk
@xenochrist15 Nah dude, they don't mean that the video shows 1 galaxy and there are many others, but it's only going to be ONE galaxy in the whole game. :/ Still, there are billions of systems. Spend your life checking each one out for a second each, and you won't even have covered 10%.
@spcmn77 No doubt there will be those who say culture is something that defines 'humanity', but looking back on the sacking of peoples and cities which caused the spread of various civilizations, one must wonder if culture will fade away like the people who came before our civil society, and with it all of our customs and morality.
Now all the game needs is 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999^the human population in order for a player to have 0,0000000000000001% chance to actually meet someone in this game. Or is it max 16 player per server? :P
@NLwino Well of course they'll put everyone on one server.... Wait what?? Oh sorry, they'll put 30 people... xD.. But hopfuly when it comes, we'll be able to meet alot of online people..
@waddlerobloxxxx Just because the game will be better then WoW doesn't mean the game will be more popular then WoW. WoW was already a huge hype the moment they started creating the game. This isn't. And I quess you will be able to chat with other players and you have places where everyone comes together. But most of the space will be a lonely place. This seems to have soooo much potential I really hope it will turn into a fun game to play. And I will have to buy a new pc I think...
@mryellow123 yea it assumes that DUST514 will be a hit, I personally know alot of people whom do not have a xbox and won't buy one just for it. They should have just made it a PC game too and offered a special deal to existing eve players. BUt as usual CCP rather lie and boost about technological advancement and sweep everything else under the carpet.
CCP are a bunch of lying asshats, always have been and always will be. The majority of gamers are too dumb to see pass the lies.
all these stars belong to one galaxy, and there are supposed to be bilions (infanite) galaxies in the universe.. in the matter of fact there may be bilions of universies and it goes on..
@Y3DXGL90 Actually, the devs dont have to touch a single planet, its all procedurally generated, the client creates all the planets, not the devs, the devs just tell the system how to create it.
@mryellow123 personally I have played eveonline for over 6years and I think it has no future. CCP has done a very bad job of rolling out major expansion which actually provide new content. The general problem with eve is there is nothing to compare to it right now so people will continue playing it till something else which is better like INIFINITY comes along.
@oghmaeve yeah sad that a game which captured the market completely throws it all away with bad middle-management. The new content being a video about "Eve has a future" just says it all.
@TheBigRedTom But then at least 20/21 stars would not be visited if you had 2 Galaxies. Considering 47.5% of the stars in one Galaxy with a MMO population count of over 500,000 will not be visited. The sad truth is it is an awful waste of space, because as you fly about, you are passing thousands upon thousands of stars, each one generated at one point or another depending on their size and when someone else flew through that region. Each star will have some data stored. Too big 0_0.
In truth, many would love to live in a time where we could go out into space & explore the universe. If we cannot do this in reality, well sim's like this r the next best thing to get the mind juices flowing.
With all the flight sims out there, I'd happily pay $50 for a quality space-sim like this & I'm sure their r ten's of thousands out there who would do likewise.
We r about 20 yrs late 4 an Elite 4, whomever makes something like this will make a killing 100%. These guys r right on track.
@bobfrapples21 You must not have read/understood the description of what this video is, otherwise you'd be as impressed as everyone else. Here, I'll help: "This is a visual representation of what's happening on the server side, so there's no fancy rendering or effects (those will be added to the client later on).". This is just to demonstrate the size of the gameworld. Check out some of the other videos of this game/engine; you'll get a better idea of what the final product will look like.
@vlweb3d And each one of those stars is full of planets, and each one of those planets may have a full ring system, and each planet will have its own unique surface ;)
Way too many star systems for a game. Hopefully most of them are planetless and worthless as far as actual gameplay goes. If you spread out EVE's population among this galaxy you could go years without bumping into anybody.
Obviously there will need to be major 'home' systems and trade routes etc. Very interesting to see this and I can't wait to see the finished product and rule-set.
@grimtendo The thing about planets and planet tectonics and flora and fauna is that it can all be procedural as well. Completely randomized using a few materials and a whole lot of coding.
Because this isn't ingame footage - this is literally just the server code running the placement routines and sticking dots in to show where the stars would actually be.
Scary to imagine how this would look in the actual game engine. :)
If they can pull this off while keeping people in contact with each other and making the game not be a 100gig download, I will be incredibly impressed. It's looking fantastic.
procedural generation means that you download a small program, and it fills in the world for you, meaning your computer makes a large part of the game, meaning a small download most of the time :P
That's easier than you'd think - the game only needs mapping data for a few core systems (key locations such as Earth, for instance). The rest can be generated from a few algorithms, a density map, and a 'seed' number - all of which combined would only add up to a few megabytes. The technique was pioneered in a much older game called 'Elite'.
What'll take the space is the sound, textures, and ship models, but there's no reason to expect it would be larger than a DVD or two.
@namekman01 It has a set of pre defined parameters, a seed, that gets run through the generation engine when you go somewhere, whatever you can see of the galaxy is created for you and removed when it’s out of range. Because the seed is fixed for everyone, everyone gets the same universe so that only changes to it by players or devs after it's initial creation need be stored on database.
At least, that’s what I understand of it. May have some of the detail confused.
@cheeksjd DON'T PANIC! The dev team has stated that there’s a real possibility of them making a single player version for the sort of people who are not so fond of MMOs :)
@cheeksjd what's the point of playing against a computer? this one is so realistic, is there any point if it wont feel like you're a citizen in the star trek universe? this is truly epic, and it'll change the genre of mmog's forever... dont judge it based on the crap we've got access to today.
@hcvang While waiting for the MMO version myself, But as a former X series player, I totally understand Cheeksjd’s point of view on this. Beating a human at something when you're more experienced and with better tech may well be slightly more satisfying, but beating an entire galaxy of NPCs, building a vast empire and space armada and then wiping them all out with it totally beats that in terms of coolness value, plus I’m guessing they’ll like the lack of subscription fees with that option also.
@Naibasaki I dont see the point of communicating with someone who finds it impossible to accept and respect other peoples likes, dislikes and preferences and feels the need to belittle them instead.
@hcvang Firstly, you total hypocrite, going on about how playing against a computer is pointless to someone who clearly sees the merits of it, and then lecturing ME in not attacking preferences =)
Secondly, my star trek comment was more because you almost seemed to want to hijack the entire back-story of the game and turn it towards something that it isn't going to be, not an attack on your personal opinion, just your mildly selfish assumptions, It wasn’t entirely serious at that.
How the hell does a computer generate something like this!?! This seems impossible to have a whole world as each dot.

We r about 20 yrs late 4 an Elite 4, whomever makes something like this will make a killing 100%. These guys r right on track.

@bobfrapples21 You must not have read/understood the description of what this video is, otherwise you'd be as impressed as everyone else. Here, I'll help: "This is a visual representation of what's happening on the server side, so there's no fancy rendering or effects (those will be added to the client later on).". This is just to demonstrate the size of the gameworld. Check out some of the other videos of this game/engine; you'll get a better idea of what the final product will look like.

Way too many star systems for a game. Hopefully most of them are planetless and worthless as far as actual gameplay goes. If you spread out EVE's population among this galaxy you could go years without bumping into anybody.
Obviously there will need to be major 'home' systems and trade routes etc. Very interesting to see this and I can't wait to see the finished product and rule-set.

@grimtendo The thing about planets and planet tectonics and flora and fauna is that it can all be procedural as well. Completely randomized using a few materials and a whole lot of coding.

@mdoerkse
Because this isn't ingame footage - this is literally just the server code running the placement routines and sticking dots in to show where the stars would actually be.
Scary to imagine how this would look in the actual game engine. :)

@TheJayLeHol
procedural generation means that you download a small program, and it fills in the world for you, meaning your computer makes a large part of the game, meaning a small download most of the time :P
Fosius 1 year ago
@TheJayLeHol
That's easier than you'd think - the game only needs mapping data for a few core systems (key locations such as Earth, for instance). The rest can be generated from a few algorithms, a density map, and a 'seed' number - all of which combined would only add up to a few megabytes. The technique was pioneered in a much older game called 'Elite'.
What'll take the space is the sound, textures, and ship models, but there's no reason to expect it would be larger than a DVD or two.

@namekman01 It has a set of pre defined parameters, a seed, that gets run through the generation engine when you go somewhere, whatever you can see of the galaxy is created for you and removed when it’s out of range. Because the seed is fixed for everyone, everyone gets the same universe so that only changes to it by players or devs after it's initial creation need be stored on database.
At least, that’s what I understand of it. May have some of the detail confused.

@namekman01 actually it's procedurally generated, which means the vast majority of it won't be stored in memory.

@cheeksjd what's the point of playing against a computer? this one is so realistic, is there any point if it wont feel like you're a citizen in the star trek universe? this is truly epic, and it'll change the genre of mmog's forever... dont judge it based on the crap we've got access to today.
hcvang 1 year ago
@hcvang While waiting for the MMO version myself, But as a former X series player, I totally understand Cheeksjd’s point of view on this. Beating a human at something when you're more experienced and with better tech may well be slightly more satisfying, but beating an entire galaxy of NPCs, building a vast empire and space armada and then wiping them all out with it totally beats that in terms of coolness value, plus I’m guessing they’ll like the lack of subscription fees with that option also.

@Naibasaki I dont see the point of communicating with someone who finds it impossible to accept and respect other peoples likes, dislikes and preferences and feels the need to belittle them instead.
hcvang 1 year ago
@hcvang Firstly, you total hypocrite, going on about how playing against a computer is pointless to someone who clearly sees the merits of it, and then lecturing ME in not attacking preferences =)
Secondly, my star trek comment was more because you almost seemed to want to hijack the entire back-story of the game and turn it towards something that it isn't going to be, not an attack on your personal opinion, just your mildly selfish assumptions, It wasn’t entirely serious at that.
