@Rosumny00 Um, what has the absorption of light in liquid to do with scattering of light in atmospheric gasses? These two phenomena are quite separate. But yes, such a vibrant green is unlikely to occur, but the point was to show the capability.
@cameni47 The primary color of the atmosphere is based on the primary color of the surface of a planet (on earth). That is why our atmosphere is a shade of blue... I assumed it was the earth, since that is what it said in the description. Assuming it's the earth, it should have the same chemical make up for the atmosphere...
@Rosumny00 It's earth, but the atmospheric and water parameters were altered to get an alien appearance.
Atmosphere is a shade of blue because of the fact that air molecules scatter blue component of light spectrum more than others. It has nothing to do with the color of oceans, besides ocean color is rather different when viewed from above. When viewed at an angle it mostly reflects the sky. Also, the planet appears blue from outer space because of the same scattering of light outwards to space
Its earth but not as we know it. After the great nuclear war of 2032 the underground civilizations could never again return to the surface. Except for one genetically modified human living in a wood cabin :P
Green is the wrong color for the atmosphere... It should be a red if the ocean is red...

@cameni47 Can we please get some footage from the beta? I'm dying to see something!

@Kvokki There's a thread on our forums about it, you should ask the testers there - they are allowed to post about it (with some limitations)
