A Glimpse of Blue Mars

[Renew3D]

Blue Mars is the total opposite of There.com. Blue Mars has near photorealistic graphics and very little content and barely any active users. There.com has cartoon graphics and a lot of content with some very loyal fans as it's users.

Which one sounds more fun to you?

[MrAstronomike]

i'm going back to bluemars.org this is pathetic

[MassZombicide]

Please tell me it's not going to be another piece of shit point and click game.

[OspreyTherian]

@MassZombicide Right now they've backed off full virtual reality and are just doing avatars on mobile devices, I think, so there's nowhere even to point-and-click to.

[MassZombicide]

@OspreyTherian while I do not understand why your reply currently states that it was posted 6 hours ago given that my comment that you're replying to was posted 50 minutes ago, it seems you're right. I wouldn't have thought a project so grandiose as to be in partnership with e.g. National Geographic would just end like this but it sadly seems so, especially sad since after watching others, it seems it wasn't limited to point & click at some stage. Well, luckily the beta is apparently available.

[OspreyTherian]

@MassZombicide I noticed that 6 hour thing too - who knows! The people with regions in Blue Mars can still access them, and I believe visitors can go there (to places like Caledon), but I haven't been back since I made this video. Who knows, they might rise again.

[TheMiss12321]

so realistic O_O 

[banthepope]

wow! good music on a fan video!

you've officially broken the one rule of YouTube

thank you!

[Mrtassan]

Everytime I look at such type of game, I can't stop myself but think of the possibilities on how virtuality can become reality if this was on xbox kinnect... you don't have to type codes to give expressions...

[OspreyTherian]

@Mrtassan The more simple webcam-transfers-your-expressi­on-to-avatar seems like the way to go first. That would be useful to everyone, including those who need VR the most, i.e. those without full use of their bodies.

[rOdriigO1997]

SL have better graphics than this, the problem is if your graphic card is enough to play it, mine is not and all SL is grey, slow, and horrible ¬¬

[rockets5051]

it sucks

[Pris0]

Second Life 2. With no Fly. Lol.

[mikeccuk2006]

they should have used Unreal engine instead, it is more acceptable to most computer's performance. direct 9 can pretty much do what DX10 can with the right codes

[switchinaddict23]

Wats the website for this game?

[OspreyTherian]

@switchinaddict23

bluemars dot com

[Saerain]

@maroci64 Hey lodda poppa hey lodda poppa mimma bibba looda paaawn. Or something.

[Getier2k]

found Osprey !

*greets from Heiliger Barbosa* :P

[OspreyTherian]

@Getier2k Hi, Heiliger!

[TheSleazySaint]

I really don't know about this. The graphics are incredible, but all the things that make SL so good are missing. The easy user creation from SL will be hard to replicate, if they're even planning user creation.

The possibilities in Second Life also seem greater, the movement is much more free, and is over all a much better experience.

[OspreyTherian]

@TheSleazySaint I agree - I love SL. For me there's no comparison, however we live in this exciting time when virtual worlds are springing up! I think it's fun to explore and after all, we can go to various worlds for different reasons.

ok where do i get those Shade pictures? D:

[TheStashArt]

the cloths look real the shaders are awesome i love the mirror effect ! sl will have to work on their engine !

[TheStashArt]

Second Life will have to work on their engine otherwise the are busted ! u saw the shaders and mirror effect ? in SL you can just dream of that !

[CelestialElf]

beautiful....

[madeinchinavids]

omg lol i made a acount for this and its original name : antony :DDDDd omg got ma own name epic :)

[EasternMerchant]

There comes a time when a corporation becomes a landmark and a household name in a particular industry.

Just like McDonald's with fast food, Secondlife will be always known to be an icon in the virtual world community.

A newcomer to the Virtual world will probably learn of Secondlife before any other virtual world.

[OspreyTherian]

From the Internet Archive, I think.

[kittyrainbowcookie]

it's click to walk? :(

[duokmansparnelius]

@kittyrainbowcookie Yup

[TinaRanseier]

@kittyrainbowcookie

its i dont know what to walk

i tried several methods to walk, Mouse, Arrow-Keys and AWSD, Nothing of this works really nothing

[Kazuyaikun]

can we edit stuff just like second life on tis?

[josuehabana]

Blue Mars doesn't have building tools or editing tools like SL. It supports user content, but based on using external programmes, such as Maya and DAZ 3D

[regemo]

Also supports Google Sketchup, which is free to download and use. With plenty of open source models available online.

[ZMCAdotORG]

if u prefer to do this in reality check us out

[Elentaurel]

I love how the hair shines and moves when you run. I'm downloading this right now~

[Entity13Productions]

i know its beta and its great idea, but WHY? also LAG!

[Grailknight1337]

this is so awesome i've got the beta version :)

[brand068]

Love the music!

[chrisjhart221138]

The music is class.

[seanbabyboyz]

Lmfao!. Music failage.

[BraddLaval]

Amazing and altho blue mars looks PG . Its downfall can be content creation by 3rd parties and Org's only - I assume costs of this Vworld is high coz content creators rent of build devs & build devs rent from city devs, city devs rent server space of blue mars inc.

[ZeakCao]

Man, I can feel my laptop crash watching that. D8

[LovesXpills]

ME TOO. GOSH.

[Grailknight1337]

haha XD

[witchmind]

omfg the music of this video sucks

[Piscivorus]

Dude! This was the shit after the civil war.

[super6plx]

I got accepted into the closed beta just now, downloading the client... pleased to see it's only 1.3gb for the demo levels, but I'm afraid that the full game will be like 13GB rofl

Oh well, it'll probably be worth it, and I god damn hope it has an option to play for free (with less benefits or whatever) at least until I get a job lol

[OspreyTherian]

Entropia is now a 5 gig d/l!

[super6plx]

ha I'm not surprised, I was keeping the entropia installer for the day that they finished building it on the cryengine2 but I guess now I'm not too keen :S

[Samota0]

:3 I was thinking the same when I saw the requirements.T3T question,is there any kinda ranking systems? I just got invited. ^-^

[super6plx]

ranking system as in.. ranking of wealth? I'm not sure, I haven't played it very much.. but there's no ranking system for like most places visited or most people spoken to or anything

[Alineathens]

it isnt a game

[elmo1057]

yea I went on secondlife and i said I hate this game and they said Well dats because this aint a game..LOL

[Gaunc]

i'm not getting a 5000$ computer just to play this...

[floodonthewater]

You don't need a $5000 computer. You only need a $500 computer. Most $100 video cards run Blue Mars really well.

[joseluiscruz]

Yeap... if you can run Crysis, then you will be able to run Blue Mars. It's based in the same engine. Any card with 512MB DDR2 or better, will work fine.

[Rozen0012]

Sugeeeee(;ﾟдﾟ)

[SnapeShought]

were u sign up for the beta. This game is very beautiful.

[ibnuts]

The water effects are gorgeous. It's amazing how realistic these games are getting, although the player/NPC models were a bit poor by comparison.

[OspreyTherian]

Early days yet, remember.

[DuMa10000]

lol dis game is so fail

[spyglass123]

it isnt a game.

[jabateau]

that's so cool :D

i signed up for the beta this month

[waelyatenk]

O_o
