[ELI5] How is Star Citizen's seamless landing & procedural terrain technology different from other games ? Why is it groundbreaking? (ex. No Man's Sky, E:D, etc.)quote:Procedural generated terrain, at RUNTIME

Like when people put Hans Zimmer music behind a pet montage and their idiot friends and family all gush about what a moving film they've made. I was astonished at how many people said my bugs of star citizen video was "Epic." I expressly chose the stupidly over-the-top epic music because it was so unfitting to the visuals, but music is a powerful thing, emotionally.

Dapper Dan posted:I can't help but roll my eyes at the Shitzens who think that procedural planet gen means something. Its another flashy commercial to sell jpegs. It is long past the point where flashy commercials and trailers matter. It is put your money where your mouth is time. You've had 4 years and produced a portion of content that should have been available two years ago and barely represents anything promised. Even if you have procedural planetary generation, so what? The game is so badly optimized it has trouble running on a computer with SLI Titans, a machine that can conceivably run any game ever made on the highest settings at 4k. How do you think it is going to handle planetary generation with that level of fidelity (hint: it won't). If S42 was the MAIN GAME pitch on KS then they certainly spend a lot of their effort showing the slapped on PU during their live streams... did they talk about S42 at all? I was in and out.

Thanks everyone for the detailed info about Wingman. He seems like a really cool and talented guy, and it was very much CiG's loss that he no longer works for them.

Fun reddit thread going. Guy is upset about the "limited" "flash-sales" for the Idris and Jav. Apparently the extra steps you have to go though to use store credit to buy them slows you down enough that the "limited number" of JPEGs gets sold before you can complete checkout. He's upset because that makes the flash sales new cash only.

Thirsty Dog posted:Because the claim was dynamic levels of detail depending on distance, which isn't what you're seeing here. Pretty sure that means its not generating all the terrain detail for the planet when you are a long way above it but as you get closer to the surface it generates more detail. Which it quite obviously is doing in the stuff they showed. You can see it pop in when he is zooming around the editor.

How he implies he isn't and it's his job to pass things along to people who do the real work. I wonder if people ribbed him about it.
