Infinity Pre-Alpha Tech Demo April 2010 - Part 1

[Azdek100]

ultra nice game

[pjmack79]

yeah awesome star wars star trek superman green lantern game , they should absolutely include this...!!!!!!!!!!!! amazing

[prisonbreak7775]

what is this game about?? pplease someone reply 

[warlover23]

looks great, still a working process though

[Fagottron]

Wow, this looks impressive.

[LargusJett]

After EVE got it's new nebulae it rivals what is shown here - the planet belt/closer view beats eve though. Going to a normal asteroid belt in EVE will yield some more interesting lookin' stones though :P Im definitely excited for this

[hellgorama]

@LargusJett EVE sucks these days. Actually it started to suck since mafia-style player alliances got total control in 0.0 sec space and their NBSI policy. Wouldn't it be awesome to have small trade hub far from high sec where scoundrels gather to trade. Instead what we have is people camping in front of gates and stations indiscriminately killing anyone who goes through. Having the odd station in middle of nowhere is interesting, but now players are building outposts everywhere.

[Ghawyn]

Atmospheres (at least on a planet like Earth) need to be about 10-20 x thicker. It adds to the immensity of the planet and universe if they are. Otherwise, they still feel like miniature models.

[PwnerPwnz]

@Ghawyn Yeah well, that's the thing. In an earlier video like this they had in the description: "The planet has a realistic scale, and the atmosphere is as thin as Earth is in reality ( which is surprising to a lot of people )."

I don't know if you've ever played a realistic spaceflight simulator like Orbiter or something but an atmosphere really is surprisingly thin when you fly this fast (speed up) through it.

[Stubot2]

@Ghawyn Agreed, the planet's atmosphere juse needs to be alot deeper and then it would be perfect. Apart from that, the space to planet transition completely blew my mind. I really wasn't expecting it to be that awesome lol.

[ZechsMerquise73]

Who needs an MMO? I'd play it just like this. Although an MMO would be cool

[Karuvatto]

This looks like Steam's current special sale, Evochron Mercenary.

[XTFparrot]

@Karuvatto Except for with good graphics, Evochron has terrible graphics and a horrible user interface. But yeah on the surface similiar concept.

[matrixkbh1987]

OMG MAKE THIS GAME!! it looks so epic

[PwnerPwnz]

Hey guys, if you're like me and can't wait for this game, but still want to saturate your hunger for exploring the universe, then try SpaceEngine.

Works the same as infinity with procedural generation, you can explore every star in the galaxy (which can have planets) and even visit other galaxies.

/watch?v=k8a0Kr2CLQo

Thumbs up so other people can see

[RandomPrussian1871]

This game represents the next stage of MMO.

No Quests, advanced AI and 99% of the society being Player-controlled.

Also featuring vast explorable landscapes(in this case 200 Billion star systems) and gameplay moar addiciting than WoW.

[hellgorama]

@RandomPrussian1871 Actually there will be quests, but there will be variety. There will be the usual generic quests, but also surprise ones. For example you can be flying minding your own business and then a signal shows up on your sensors. You decide to go and check it out only to find an ambush BY NPCs (yea NPCs not players). Turns out these NPCs are from a faction whom you made enemies with in a previous mission you did and they wanted revenge.

[TheFixXxerNL]

When is this freakin game coming out?

[Mandrak789]

@TheFixXxerNL what game? theres no game just a paper scatches drawn by some dude

[TheFixXxerNL]

@Mandrak789

+1

[wakkaboom1987]

PLEASE DON'T DIE ON ME!!!!

[lolzayamumlioncar]

Just imagine this game on a set-up like this: /watch?v=_wMBS_bfkFk

I now know what my goal in life is.

[Keyes66]

I can't belief why the market for sci-fi games is so small and great games rarely get finished. The tech demo of Nexus 2 breaks my heart on a regular basis. Instead of developing crap like Duke Nukem, they should make those beauties.

[wakkaboom1987]

@Keyes66 Yep.. 27% and only how days left ;_; I hope they keep my money and make the game regardless...

[Karuvatto]

The mechanics of this game is simple; You do not move around the universe, your engine makes the universe move around you! Less processing power needed that way.

[Darkunov]

To the Devs: Whatever you do, DON'T cancel this game. I'd pre-order it for over the retail price with no bonus if it helps.

[TheCongressman1]

This is an exploration game in at it's best. Take notes, big business!

[gammaray152]

The developers are the best trolls in video gaming history.

[snoopaloop2010]

FUND IT

[Ranger10700]

TAKE MY MONEY, ALL OF IT

[EmperorJonTC]

I have followed the development of this engine for some years, and just decided to come back, see if there were any news updates, and watch this video again. One day, I'm sure, they will release it. Even if the project dies, you must remember the amount of time it's taken for them to make this. It would no doubt be passed on to somebody else. They wouldn't just throw it away.

[men808]

I'm going to cut my dick off and kill people if the developers won't release an alpha >:C

[CamNM1991]

The ship models are really tacky looking and the video could've done without the repetitive piece but everything looks awesome, wonder if there's going to be mod support to add new spacecraft and possibly add some cool cities to discover on lost jewels. My body is ready I want this kind of game!!

[FredeGF]

@CamNM1991 yeah, imagine if they made the engine opensource, and allowed people to design entire planets in detail, possibly so that the player could move around on them and so forth. The people designing the planet surfaces could then send it to the original developers, and if they liked what they saw, they could release it as an official patch. sure, the game might take up a lot of space, but hell, I wouldn't mind using 200 gb on the ultimate space-experience.

[FredeGF]

@FredeGF and as a reward, the people designing these stellar/planetary objects in their spare time could get to choose the name of the planet (of course, again the developers would have the final word) - who wouldn't wanna have a planet, used by thousands of gamers all over this planet, named after them? I think a concept like this would catch on fire, and the scope of this game would be endless.

[OhaidereHowAreUTday]

@FredeGF

Well all the planets in Infinity will be procedurally generated, so you don't need 200 Gigabytes to make an entire galaxy... but if i understood stuff right, the engine (INova, not Infinity) will allow you to design your own planets. But you will be able to build cities in this game(infinity).

[FredeGF]

@OhaidereHowAreUTday Kewl. Do you know if you're going to be able to interact with these cities, other than just bumping into them? I've read somewhere that they weren't planning on making it possible to go outside the ship. It could be nice if they made character cumstomization, and allowed your character to walk around in limited areas, say, docking stations.(like in EVE)

Another neat feat. was if the gravity and atmosphere of the planets affected the stiring of the ship

[TehTang]

Awsome...

[LegendaryGoldDragon]

I've been watching you guys sine 08, this promises to shake the foundations of Scifi/Space MMO's I'd do anythign to be a part of it, or help see it come true!

[JAnx01]

You guys created universe that creates itself. You created life! OMG, I cannot believe it! Are you gods?

[Worhan]

I thought its pretty nice during the first half, but my jaw dropped when they landed on the planet. This will be amazing!

[SuperYouUber]

you guys should really start using atoms then polygons

because they are less gpu intensive

and it have unlimited detail.

[AcronychalRising]

@SuperYouUber there is a reason you dont see games being made with that just yet, and the way they have set this game up will use an engine that works a bit different most likely - it will have a way of allowing the transition of one place to another without it being too gpu intensive.

[AlexRider001]

incredible when a game can cause a seasoned gamer to sit there in awe, completely slack-jawed

no game will ever be able to stun me like this again :D

ME WANT PLAY!

[TheDjScorpien]

I WANT THAT GAME MAN !!! THAT IS TO COOL

[BlackStoneWeilder]

EVE Online 2.0

[PeterDrayGoPro]

just has that certain baron soundtrack that never seems to end.

[Manji14]

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS I JUST WHAT NO WHAT THGHGGGG....*jizz*

[pavan789567]

thumbs

 down

[besnikmaloku]

omg looks great keep up the good work

[ryan16426]

how to is start playing the game? I have downloaded version 2.2, registered for an account and put in Player account name- and password- then it says invalid name or password

Need help please

[Itookthelaw]

@ryan16426 the game isnt out yet

[KiteNamikaze]

There are literally billions of stars to explore?

This is going to be a game for the ages.

[SmokNiszczyciel]

@KiteNamikaze

Infinite numbers. It uses seed to generate whole universe.

[KiteNamikaze]

Please, make this game a reality.

I hate how people don't pay attention to games like this.

[fistingnuns69er]

@KiteNamikaze Why do you hate it. Not everybody shares your tastes and interests.

[KiteNamikaze]

@fistingnuns69er

The problem is that way too many few people like games like this, hence why games of this genre are such a rarity

Games like this deserve attention, for what they are, you can explore other worlds, fight entire fleets of enemy ships, you can even explore entire galaxies and still have enough to have beautiful graphics, and i find that amazing, i never knew a game could be able to do that, and that's just beautiful

Games like this deserve much more attention

[SokSa]

@KiteNamikaze I would pay a $100 dollars for this game. I am that serious. this is what I've been waiting for since Elite II

[BluescapeProductions]

i hope this game gets finished... i really do... EPIC!!

[SlippstersVideos]

Hi 

[nothGhost]

DAMN YOU COMPUTER SCREEN WHY WON'T YOU TAKE MY MONEY AND GIVE ME THIS GAME!

[GlareVisions]

just astonishing if this comes out i would pay 200$ for this fuck mw3

[mikeyehlert]

This project is dead. Long live Pioneer Space Sim.

[BluescapeProductions]

@mikeyehlert give this guy infinite thumbs down :)

[AmericanMuscleCarSS]

Is it bad that I would honestly kill another human being in order to have the finished copy of this game at this very moment? Because I would. O_O

[Itookthelaw]

@AmericanMuscleCarSS I'm with you on this

[MrZombieBiscuit]

@AmericanMuscleCarSS WHAAAA?...

I mean, can I join you?

[omn1dex]

arent windows a structural weakness? either get rid of all these windows or make them out of crystalline carbonide

[Macabremauve]

I...Love...This...SO MUCH. And I fucking HATE MMORPGs!

This represents so many dreams in the gaming world, please for the love of God show us that the advances in graphics and other technologies were not just for COD idiots. Let us create our own stories, our own empires...our own games.

[khoavuong]

What do you get when you mate a Dodge Charger with a Cessna?

[NexusCool1]

OMFG! landscape looks so good

[adonis4441]

lol

[HrDonk]

ive been waiting for this since Freelancer ...

[LupusAries]

Now make that a clickable pit!

[FailedGambits]

what is this sorcery

[LupusAries]

@FailedGambits No a space-sim game.

[0o0Auron0o0]

F2P will be great !!

[CoolStoryBroize]

ALL MY MONEY

TAKE IT

[norinvaux]

>mfw 3:20

[MisterHeizenberg]

Imagine if this was an RTS and you could begin by making an economy on a random world, mining the resources of the planet, building cities, factories, and shipyards.

Then you build yourself a massive fleet of ships and send them off to make war on a distant world. You could choose to either nuke the entire planet from orbit and wipe it clean of whatever poor bastards are living there, or you could send down a massive land army and occupy the planet, using the local populace as slave labor.

[hellgorama]

@MisterHeizenberg You will be able to build stations and colonize planets and have a player driven economy both in space and on planet. If you're rich enough and have a large enough corp/alliance, you and your guildies can occupy space and own surrounding planets and build an empire (even whole cities) and even jump gates to instantly connect your homespace to the main NPC space (not 100% sure about this onw). You can even hire NPCs to do your dirty work but not as effectively as players.

[IFthisSiteBREAK]

you dont need to pay 100 bucks for the exploration part. there is a thing called space engine which is essentially the same thing. what will be interesting is the gameplay mechanics they put into this

[Rumpmanglarn]

Shut up and take my money...

[Zammmeh]

All games should have seamless transition. And I agree with xiaoyuebusiness. I'd pay £100 just to get a shot of the pre alpha, even if the game is never released

[MichaelxDavid]

Battlefront 3 ANY FUCKING BODY?

[Aquamantic]

LOL at people from others companies disliking this awesome video.

[JScivlancer1]

looks incredible, the music fits perfectly with the theme

[guitarguy123212]

looks really sick! :)

Music is goddamn annoying! :s

[flyboyer808]

if this game ever comes out...its bye bye eve online for me.

[ArnieMcStranglehold]

Anyone who dislikes this doesn't deserve to continue living.

[xiaoyuebusiness]

I will pay 100 bucks for just flying around! really, take my money and give me the alpha! I don't care if this is finished! this is what I want since I played Homeworld!

[TehTang]

@xiaoyuebusiness; but would you generate your own worlds?

[Thermalburn]

does this have actual space flight aerodynamics (for a lack of a better term)? As in, for example, while flying and you make a turn your aircraft will still continue going in its previous direction until your thrusters correct it. like that old game, ASTROIDS. It would be cool if you model aerodynamics relative to each planet as well, depending on its atmospheric composition and gravity

[forumrabbit]

@Thermalburn You clearly saw it in the video when he went up close to the asteroid.

Graned there is SOME friction in space (not much) so you wouldn't go on 'forever', just not as much friction as star wars seems to think.

[Thermalburn]

@forumrabbit i see. i though space was a vacuum and all objects would maintain their momentum. not an expert on the subject though, so im not doubting you

[lenowin]

@Thermalburn It is a vacuum, he's wrong, no friction in space unless you're going through some sort of cloud or particle field.

[icannotfly]

@lenowin and because stars have this weird tendency to cast light, you are ALWAYS in a particle field. yes, there is friction in space, even if it is just a very small amount.

[closquet]

oh my god !!!

[EvansRowan123]

my body is ready

[vadersdemise93]

MAKE STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3!!!

[bryanZ17]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! unbelievable :o

[Roland9x]

Take my money. All of it. Every last cent. I don't need food, I've stored up plenty of fat to survive for...maybe a week. Afterwards, there are shoes, clothing, and doors to eat.

Just GIVE me this.

[zodiark111]

Is there still being progress made? I must have this or I won't be able to die without any regrets.

[kikomiko1]

I can imagine this game being like Endless Ocean, just exploring things, appreciating their beauty, not fucking killing everything you see for once.

[SonicSidewinder]

Checking back after about a year. Still beautiful.

It can't come soon enough.

[Thet3]

I want Valve to buy them!

[Thet3]

I would Donate to help progress!

[arup02]

Song please?

[flonga1]

I WILL PAY ANYTHING FOR THIS GAME PLEASE DON'T STOP WORKING ON IT I WUB U

[DarthMohammed]

Simply amazing. I would pay to just fly around for hours in this game, even with no weapons or enemies or NPCs or anything. Just fly and zone out.

Hey, it looks a**-loads cooler than MS Flight Sim, and all you do in that game is fly around. Am I right?

8D

[hansmann223]

holy shit...

[DoomMaster307]

This is art.

[ilikewarhammer]

Space, the final frontier! =p

[Killbotfactory]

and i thought mass effect is about exploring space

[steelorigin]

@Killbotfactory LOL

[ryanstempien1]

Dear Infinity-Universe management team. I will write a check, all you need to do is provide the number of 0's to add.

[TheBlitz1]

now you just need spaceships that don't look like american hot rods

[Game4Power]

@TheBlitz1 You mean spaceships that don't like cool? I have to disagree.

[TheBlitz1]

@Game4Power it goes from realistic to ridiculous

[Freedom21stCenturi]

i call dibs on that star system on the left

[LucianHalo]

I will give you a check, write down whatever you want. I want this game.

[quazaque]

amazing stunning work

[Itookthelaw]

Seriously release this as a demo for Pc, Mac and Linux for $5 and you will get all the money you need

[DunomancerUber]

Why does it take like 5 seconds for the ship to travel from beyond the planets atmosphere to the ground?

[Reoh0z]

Second star on the right, and straight on till morning!

[Blellowdb]

being*

[Blellowdb]

This is a game idea that I've bing waiting for over the last seven years now, I found it.

[Megarith1to3]

Just please, for gods sake, PLEASE Give us more info, make open alpha,

I will pay all my money for it!

[TheSargoDarya]

This needs to be played with goggles and headtracking.

[chopgr]

WOAH AMAZING!



[robotmaster123]

I love this <3

[chrismastere]

Warp 10 Mr. Sulu

[THEbuddyl0ve]

4:38 "oh shit no you're going to crash stop your going to cra- oh.. okay then."

[rattoh]

i dont get whats so impressive it's not like the earth has any vegetation to render to make it impressive

[SlaveExplosion]

@rattoh It's the seemless planetary/space transition that makes this game very good, technically.

Actually textures etc are not really difficult, they are just images displayed and wrapped over objects. How good they look really depends on the state of modern hardware. The better it is, the higher res textures can be.

[RisenThe]

I thought my orgasm was a lie, then I checked my pants.

Nope.

[RaynardES]

LAND! LAND!

[Hoto74]

I hope the Engine will support 3D at the End, that makes it totally awesome. ;D

Follow the project since over 4 years.

[WallopingWig]

take my money, NAOW

[riv864]

wow i would love to see this in swtor bioware take a look at how its done

[Hamptoncltn]

give this to lucas arts so they can put this in battlefield of swtor. This is exactly what the people complaining about the space situation would love.

[Super2Donny]

This would be amazing if the technology was advanced enough for a dual monitor glasses and running this game on it in first person cockpit view.

[CmdrGendoIkari]

It has a beautiful graphics engine.

[DubstepForTrueMen]

Why does the official version of this have alot less views?

[Kvokki]

@DubstepForTrueMen This is the official version.

On a side note: 100k views in a few days? AFAIK it was around 300k when I've seen it a few days earlier.

[DubstepForTrueMen]

@Kvokki the original is by InfinitySupport's channel, the people who are actually developing thi.

[Kvokki]

@DubstepForTrueMen if you actually go on infinity's site (fl-tw dot com) you'll see a post about this video, and the developer placed two links to this (part 1) and part 2 video from shockwavesurfer. I don't think ''infnitysupport'' is original. There are many accounts like that, eg. ''infinitythegame''. THIS is the original, first uploaded vid and it has more views because its linked on the site :)

It doesnt matter anyway, both show the same thing.

[pliosaurus]

I'll come back in 20 years when this game is in alpha

[sour0deez]

*Finds video and watches*

"I just saw a spaceship fly through a spacestation-planetary rings-and onto the planets surface...How long did that take?"

Guy says"About 10 minuets"

"WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS?"

[paladinstorm]

Rather, watch as I-Novae makes an EVE Online killer.

[paladinstorm]

Other than the annoyingly over-repetitive music, this was amazing. I think I'd agree with the 'release this demo, charge $5' comment. I'd buy this for $5 and watch as you make an EVE Online killer.

[TheSonOfDumb]

6:05

Entering the planet's atmosphere.

HOLY SHIT.

[volvo145]

Give me a USS Enterprise-D skin for hte hsip!

[sametturkmen87]

hey developers. im very rich. i can give 100 000 $ for this game.

[BesorgterSimsSpieler]

So sad that this game will never be released...

[Freak2121GTAF]

@BesorgterSimsSpieler Will never be released? Lol.

[BesorgterSimsSpieler]

@Freak2121GTAF

Never ever

[MrLetsdolunch]

@BesorgterSimsSpieler

It wont?

[PINGASFIST]

A Cockpit that takes up half the screen? Sweet Jesus I'm back in 1993 and I love it

[DeanGetYourWings]

Wow, i'm not a huge MMO fan, actually i have't played may in my life. But i love Sci-Fi and i love the Cosmos and exploring it, this looks epic. I'm also a huge fan of graphics and these look sublime to say it's a tech demo. I thought the planet was a backdrop then he fucks me over by going to it 0.0

I've read a bit up on it too and it look like it could steal hours of my life xD

As soon as this is ready im am giving this a go for sure!

[LunaIthil]

this is so damn fine, really

[SpazzyMcGee1337]

If you do this for a partially terraformed Mars I will have your babies.

[atomicdude91]

guys there is something similar to this that has been released you can do some of the same things. it lacks a space ship but yo can explore the universe and go to any galaxy and any star and land on any planet,

its called space engine, check it out

[Itookthelaw]

I WANT IT NOW!!!

[venatorclass07]

All my money, take it

[ShotgunzForever]

@venatorclass07 no need to pay. its free :D

[ShotgunzForever]

@venatorclass07 oh it was a combat prototype

[jamtin45]

those rendering Engines are Epic for a space sim

[dipdip8]
