What so you mean? They build the kind of envyronment of the landscape using the code?

Well, it's an open world game, I don't see why would they make every bit of forest by hand if you'll be either passing throught it to get somewhere else or fighting machines frenetically.

If the whole game is made like that, yeah, that could be a problem, tho.

Jaap van Muijden from Guerrilla Games will describe the GPU based procedural placement system that dynamically creates the world of ‘Horizon: Zero Dawn’ around the player. Not limited to just rocks and trees, the procedural system assembles fully-fledged environments while the player walks through them, complete with sounds, effects, wildlife and game-play elements.

I seriously hope there is a good amount of hand-crafted environments too. If it's everything then that is really disappointing for me, I like learning an environment and think that something is lost with procedural generation

i fully agree. not sure why they decided to go with procudural generation. specially with a game like horizon where the world seems very important to the lore and story, they shouldnt leave that up to procedural generation. i also dont want places to change when i come back to them. i hope this doesnt back fire in their face.

Wait, so it doesn't have a map? It's different for everybody? Or just what will be where changes depending of the player but the overall is the same, grasslands where grasslands should be, snowfields where snowfiels should be, etc, but just their overall content is created anew when you play?

I will be dissapointed if it has no map...

the E3 2016 demo showed a map.
