| JoeTheBro said: 1: Things change during development. 2: Yes it was, but that video clearly showed it didn't. 3: The sun is "infinitely" far away. Almost every videogame does the sun this way. It's not a problem. 4: Yes if I saw a video with the stars moving at night, that'd prove the planets spin. Honestly I'd love if you could find one since I'd much prefer functioning solar systems. 5: Sean talked about that in an interview, but has any leaked footage showed that? It seems like this changed during development. If the planets still spin that's great, and if they still orbit that'd be even better. |
1: Yes they do but the he's been talking about it right up the latest IGN first. Why drop it now?
2: Why did the video show the planets don't rotate?
3: Again, the sun would need to move at a ridiculous speed to create night and day on a planet
4: I'm not sure anyone has stood and watched the sky yet.
5: Again, what makes you think it's changed?
I don't understand why you think it's changed? It hasn't. The game is designed like that. It's all mathematics. You're making the mistake of believing the whole universe exists in the console, it doesn't, it's just a mathematical formula that evaluates how far the planet has rotated and then procedurally generates things in line with the answer. It's not difficult to do. It's just a calculation. The difficulty is expressing the result in graphical form.
