Kambiri Zoltana the united Negative Ten.	Posted - 2010.05.01 23:43:00 - [1] This is one of the most amazing trailers I have seen in a long time. The site might be down now, to many people trying to look at it, try tomorow if u can. I promise its worth a watch. http://www.infinity-universe.com/Infinity/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=113&Itemid=93 If you never heard of it, this game is made by one single guy who is trying to make some kind of elite online game. A full universe with 200 million stars with full orbital celestials such as belts/planets/moons/gas giants/ different types of stars. All of which you can fly to. The game is far from finished. Whats in the link is some actual footage released today. The guy shows a station flyby, goes through ring of a planet showing in detail that every part of that ring is made out of individual objects, touches down to the surface of a planet showing its detail, then takes off again.
Zyck Void-Wolf	Posted - 2010.05.02 00:58:00 - [2] Been keeping an eye on this for quite a while. Site does seem to be down :/ Look forward to seeing it though.
BackWard Gallente Federal Navy Academy	Posted - 2010.05.02 09:27:00 - [3] Cant wait for this to come out been looking at it for ages.A very small but extremely dedicated team developing it . A real labour of love
Jack bubu Lyonesse. RAZOR Alliance	Posted - 2010.05.02 11:41:00 - [4] Was keeping an eye for a long time on that project, and i must say that video totally gave me a nerdgasmn
Faolan Fortune	Posted - 2010.05.02 12:37:00 - [5] My god, that was beautiful. I'm quite excited for this project, it offers everything that I find lacking in Eve, a completely different kind of space game more along the lines of Freelancer. Amazing it's mostly done by one guy with various contributions from the community.

I'm quite excited for this project, it offers everything that I find lacking in Eve, a completely different kind of space game more along the lines of Freelancer The funny thing is Freelancer was a really shallow game. Just really well polished - I still liked it though. This is definately looking more like some Elite II remake. It's a nice trailer and I'm glad progress is being made after all these years, but I'm still very skeptical as it's a LONG way from a Pre-Alpha tech demo to even a playable Beta, let alone release. IMO it's too ambitious a project for too small a team and zero funding. I just hope that, IF it ever does get released, it won't be a buggy, laggy heap of trash like the last time somebody did a project like this - Malyutka (The Virus) -
Digital Solaris Caldari	Posted - 2010.05.02 16:22:00 - [7] Personally, I can't say I was even impressed. A few things in the trailer made me outright dislike it.
Blane Xero Amarr The Firestorm Cartel	Posted - 2010.05.02 18:18:00 - [8] Yo, CCP. This is how Planetary Interaction and Planetary Flight are done. KTHXBAI. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008 Originally by: CCP Fallout :facepalm:

Aldarica Spinal Discipline	Posted - 2010.05.02 23:29:00 - [10] Just... wow CCP are you watching this?
Mashie Saldana Red Federation	Posted - 2010.05.02 23:31:00 - [11] Edited by: Mashie Saldana on 02/05/2010 23:31:50 Is it still a single guy developing this as it has been for like the past 5 years? The procedural generation of stuff is neat, however I think Duke Nukem Forever will have a sequel long before this is done.

If it ends up half as good as this, Eve will be toast. No way around it.

Akita T Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2010.05.03 04:17:00 - [16] Originally by: Digital Solaris Personally, I can't say I was even impressed. A few things in the trailer made me outright dislike it Like what, for instance ? The speed at which the ship was maneuvering around in space is pretty much "devhax" and won't look anything like that in the final version. Sure, it won't be quite completely realistic (like in Elite, but that was a single-player game so you had time-control there), but it won't be like the clip (which was edited to showcase the graphics). In fact, pretty much everything in this teaser was to showcase the graphics, everything else it not even ready for an alpha test, let alone a playable beta. Don't get me wrong, I'm not having high hopes of this game actually making it to a commercial release any time soon, but then again the graphics engine MIGHT get licensed to somebody (larger game company) that would like to use it (that was actually one of the initial intentions). _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _

Honestly, I disliked how space and planetary flight in the demo was basically separated by a gust of air-sound and how suddenly the pilot in the trailer was flying over land instead of a descend through the cloud deck (or its atmosphere) on this, what I assume is a, procedurally generated planet and the planet itself made me rather think that it is just to serve as a "space with ground", but with no actual planetary characteristics of gravity and/or atmosphere. So, yeah, I found the trailer shallow and dull considering the title of the game.

If you could do better by yourself with little to no funding then feel free to show the guy behind Infinity how it's done and what a "Pre-Alpha Tech Demo" should really be about. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008 Originally by: CCP Fallout :facepalm:

Gariuys Evil Strangers Inc.	Posted - 2010.05.03 14:50:00 - [22] Originally by: Krathos Morpheus Edited by: Krathos Morpheus on 03/05/2010 14:19:18 Originally by: Gariuys -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes cause we all know how much fun it is to explore endless vastness of nothingness filled with the interesting content of trees and shrubs.... nobody gives a rats ass about exploration just for the exploration. Meaningfull and interesting content with 20 million variaties is a whole different ball game then 20 million different visuals. Seriously will it still feel as a seperat planet if it's got the exact same content?? And twitch based + MMO will never ever work! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What type of missions will be available ? The list will be very long; most of the missions will be generated dynamically depending on the system you're in and what you've been doing. Trade, hunt, mine, escort, scientific research, rescue, political, tourism, spy missions, and a lot more. In addition, an in-game interface will be available to propose your own services to the other players, or to non-player characters. To continue the discussion. The game I'm making will have all of that too, and you can rule like a tyrant or not on your own planetary colony... Promising != delivering, and while the graphics engine shows promise, it didn't show any "game" engine related stuff. And pretty procedural generated stuff isn't all that groundbreaking to be honest.
Verone Gallente Veto Corp	Posted - 2010.05.03 15:13:00 - [23] Looks pretty, but that's about it. >>> THE LIFE OF AN OUTLAW <<<
Liang Nuren Parsec Flux	Posted - 2010.05.03 15:19:00 - [24] Originally by: Verone Looks pretty, but that's about it. In the other thread (General Discussion), someone mentioned that Eve was written to be an MMO... this was written to be a space simulator. As such, all it'll ever do is look pretty, and it's about as much of an Eve Killer as Halflife2 was. -Liang -- Liang Nuren - Eve Forum ***** Extraordinaire
Grath Telkin Amarr Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2010.05.03 15:48:00 - [25] Look at all the hateful fanbois between the two threads. NO GAME CAN BE BETTER THAN MY...well ok, that one looks better, but NO GAME.... I wonder if it has all the cool stuff EVE has? Like: Game crippling lag Black screens of death Crappy copy and paste responses from GM's Faulty Logs that never show anything (seriously, they show nothing, stop running the logs, they probably make the lag) Buggy Sov mechanics that more often times than not don't function as described. Trillions of CCP protected macro programs Cheating Developers. I mean, I don't know about you, but I'd MUCH rather play some crappy civilization mini game with planets than to be able to enter the atmosphere and fly around on the planet. Also, the rings are pretty pimp.

Also, the rings are pretty pimp. If you can show one thing, even a tiny thing in that video that gives any indication that this game will be better on any of your points, or hell any gameplay related point then EVE then I'm with you... but it didn't, it showed a half decent procedural based graphics engine... ***pie doo... yeah based on that I'm sure it'll be better then EVE. Being better then the competition on a lot of points doesn't mean a game doesn't have issues, think personally that the fact that EVE is so good on some points is one of the reasons the devs really don't put in the love and effort needed to make all parts shine... but saying that some other game will be better based on promises anyone can make ( CCP made quite a few of those as well ) and a video of a graphics engine, that's trully being a fanboy.
small chimp	Posted - 2010.05.03 16:45:00 - [27] star trek online killed eve?
Dian'h Might Minmatar Cash and Cargo Liberators Incorporated	Posted - 2010.05.03 16:50:00 - [28] Like I said in the other thread, this is about as much a replacement to eve as star trek online is. I play eve because I can do things like wardec another corp or alliance, then keep killing them and disrupting their operations until they give me isk. There's no cheesy meaningless RP, where both sides are teleported to an arena where they fight over a flag for 5 minutes and one side is declared a victor with neither side actually loosing any stuff. It's my corp suddenly allowed to attack their corp, both in normal space, and both trying to go about our daily lives (mine just happens to include disrupting theirs).
Makar Kravchenko	Posted - 2010.05.03 16:54:00 - [29] I've been watching the development of this project for years. I really wish he would get support from a high-end publisher. This concept has more potential to explode in popularity than any other MMO in history. Of course the people who know nothing about programming say `oh its not that cool, why dont they show shooting people, what the hell lame kthxbai`. Well most of y'all don't know that this engine is being written by a single person, with intermediate help from the community that follows it. It's not EVE people, no. It's a totally different kind of sandbox, and its not near done yet. The progress this man has made on the work of this engine is astounding, with no income or subsidy for developement. It's a spare time project, which has really come a long way. In some ways I hope a large publisher will pick it up and help the guy complete his work faster, but in other ways I don't. Good things come to those who wait! The thing about this guys coding is that its easy for him to scale complexity and detail with improvement of technology. So what you see now, will only get better in the future. With the scale of immersion such as this though, I believe networking issues far greater than what CCP experiences will be on the table. I guess it depends on if the Galaxy you live in will be sharded or not. I havent read a lot about the netcode for the Infinity engine really, but with the ammount of space to explore in Infinity, I would imagine that segregating it into `Shards` would be very disappointing and destroy the grand scale immersion factor. All in all, I envy this mans dedication to what he loves to do. EVE is a totally different approach to the space MMO Genre. It's a good one, for adults who dont like twitch gameplay, but more strategic planning and execution. To compare Infinity to EVE or vise versa is like Apples and Oranges. The best part about Infinity is that it's not written in Python. :) (Hi CPP :P)

Nope, I couldn't, but I do think their ambition is set too high and a little too much about space because if Infinity is going to be shipped like this at one point, it is going to be a shallow experience with no real depth to it considering the potential. I guess I just got really hooked up about the fact that I read somewhere that you'd find a silly number of star systems and planets, but if it is going to be like anything (and I hope not!) like the tech demo, I'd opt-out.
