Wow. I support you all the way man, that shit looks dope.

It's not mine, but if you like it you should sign up and support it

this seems amazing! when will it be released?

That looks like a game that everyone will play. I'm so excited!

seems good but if you can make nukes shit will go down

thebeastbeast wrote Hey guys, I found an awesome game idea, check it out, it's like a parallel universe attempt try and check it out [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

If this game has yet to be started then it is gonna take years upon years to make. I mean its an amazing Idea but that size of a map would take forever and I don't think there is an engine out there that can handle something that big.

"We are creating a Virtual Parallel Universe; a universe simulation that plays like a video game. Play it anywhere, on your phone, on your computer, on your game consoles. Invent new tools, structures, and even skills to use in your survival against the elements, and against other players. "

If they are actually able to do something like this I would be absolutely amazed. A game of this caliber being cross platform? I don't see it being possible. I don't want to sound cliche but our technology, as of now, limits this idea. A game like this could take over 10 years to make. I mean there are some great games that take up to 3 or 4 years to fully develop and they aren't even half as ambitious as this game is. It would take so much funding for this game to even be possible, and a "pre-kickstarter campaign" is not gonna be able to fund something this big.


It's an incredible idea, and I would love to see it, but I don't think something like this is gonna happen anytime soon.

There's no way this will ever happen.

A map the entire size of earth would be petabytes in size (16,000 terabytes or 16,000,000 gigabytes by rough calculation) and would take a lifetime to design.

Then they're talking about tools, weapons, etc.... How do they plan to make this all work? Are they actually going to go through and design and script every single weapon and tool that exists in the world?

Like the video said... It's ambitious.

Too ambitious.

It will never happen.

Exactly. This would be too time consuming and generally a pain in the @ss for developers, unless they are comfortable dedicating their lives to scripting a video game simulating the world.

When I was younger, like 6th grade, I thought developers could make a game similar to this by using Google Earth and storing the game in the cloud etc. Just some random ideas I had.

GTA is enough life simulation for me

Anyone every played any sort of flight simulator such as Flight Simulator X?? The world is huge in that game and to scale. they have thousands of detailed airports for you to land at. now instead of airports the developers could look into making big cities first. Still it would take a lifetime to make a game as detailed and as accurate as our world, but this idea is not impossible. If they had a huge studio, like thousands of people making models everyday for this game, it might not take as long as everyone would think. But i doubt they could get thousands of people to work for free, let alone hire thousands of people and pay them. It sounds like a great idea. But it is definitely possible to do something like this. It would just take a really.. really.. really.. long time.
