They are targeting a dynamically scaling mesh that will transfer ownership of players as they move across the universe.
One server could end up handling a single planet or a single small patch of space depending on how much activity is happening in the area at the time.
Regardless of people’s feelings, CIG is definitely moving game tech forward with a lot of this stuff.
The level of depth with persistence they are going for hasn’t really been done anywhere. It’s difficult to really explain in a comment because it’s explanations they have made throughout 1000s of hours of videos and demonstrations. EVE never really had to deal with full ship interiors being seamlessly integrated into the universe. Most MMOs deal with purely static assets that can’t be affected where Star Citizen is planning everything is dynamic.
Ultimately, though, these articles about how much money has been spent on Star Citizen development are kind of inaccurate. CIG is making 2 games. Star Citizen and the single player Squadron 42. The engine work translates a lot between the 2, but the narrative work doesn’t and the single player campaign has been the primary focus for a couple of years now.
I played Fortnite for about a year after the BR came out. I enjoyed the PvE version of the game and the BR had the right balance of ridiculousness and solo gameplay I wanted out of a competitive shooter.
I never enjoyed the team driven BRs because I don’t find my team relying on me relaxing.
I was late to the vanced game because I was very willing to put up with the ads for a long while. But yeah, the number of commercial breaks in a 10 minute video became insane.
It’s going to have very few bugs. The number of unintended features will be high, though.
I never clipped out during the cutscene of Skyrim, I don’t think.
It’s hard to be totally sure though because I’ve definitely had the cart go for a tumble.
I kept hoping for a clip of Legend of the Mystical Ninja Starting Goemon.
I always loved that game.
