For goodness sake, do some research. There are no calculations done 'beforehand' because it's procedurally generated. It's the nature of the tech behind the game.

So what keeps them from procedually generating a certain radius beforehand? You know, like every procedually generated game that has ever existed is generating the whole level before you enter it.

They already use a radius with precalculated assets or else you would see every blade of grass pop in at every step you take. There is no technological reason why that radius cannot be expanded.

Since you're blasting the developers, what do you know about developing games? I'm not saying you're not a developer or anything because you put yourself across like you know a lot about developing games, particularly procedural generated games.

Don't care unless there's any huge issues, if the game's performance is good and it's fun to play for a good amount of hours I'll get it



sure, like the space exploration idea so it's a must have. would prefer it to be a vr experience from the get go but i'm pretty sure that'll will come later as well.



I decided to not get it at launch, but i'm sure i will get it eventually at a discount.

 

The reason is simply money management. I decided to get a new monitor for my PC instead.

Not the plan.

That's exactly what I'm going to do too. I'd like to know why they've docked it points (if they do) because I've seen so many misconceptions of what this game is and if some reviewers also have those misconceptions before they review the game then it won't be a true reflection on what the game actually is, or what Sean Murray has promised. Everything he's promised is in the game and for me, that coupled with what I've seen so far is enough for me to buy the game even if it only scores 60 on Meta.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


Already preordered.  I plan on flying around for two years and finally meeting my first human player only to have him shoot me out of the sky and loot my cargo withing seconds of my friendly hail. 



l <---- Do you mean this glitch Gribble?  If not, I'll keep looking.  

 

 

 

 

I am on the other side of my sig....am I warm or cold?

This gives you a good idea of some of the game loops if you're interested in finding out more about the game. It's also the most recent build and you can clearly see the improvements:

I will definitely buy it. Might check the reviews first, but I'll buy it.
