J4MES OX4D 10,025 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 ReRoll is a open-world survival RPG that takes place on a full-sized planet earth. I can't see them pulling this off but the concept sounds interesting http://www.polygon.com/2014/2/3/5374012/reroll-drone-sourcing-planet-earth-pixyul-pc Could also just be a major surveillance operation disguised as a game tronic44, Palle, BO7H B4RRELS and 1 other 4 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/923-reroll-the-most-ambitious-game-ever/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
tronic44 3,642 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 This would be mad! I know they wanted to do a GTA world but that was too much for obvious reasons, even though they researched and looked into it for a few years. Would be very interesting to see how far they get with this.

Sennex 1,903 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 it "sounds" cool, but IDK, I think they are biting off more than they can chew Diddums 1 Luke 23:34 'And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't think it be like it is, but it do."

Diddums 4,346 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 A challenge, but certainly feasible. They'd have to split the planet up into instanced zones, and the map data would have to be hosted serverside, streaming to the end user as they move around the world and stored in a temp cache on your local machine. Depending on the quality of the map, I'd say about 100tb+, which for a project like this, is nothing. Imagine the possibilities! Obviously it'd require a permanent connection to stream the content, and the combat would have to be turn based or slow a-la WoW, but with the right motivation and finances, this could be a very interesting project to follow. I support this 100%, it's about time the gaming industry took a fucking huge leap again. tronic44, J4MES OX4D and phil bottle 3 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/923-reroll-the-most-ambitious-game-ever/#findComment-24647 Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnfitbillyboy 505 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 If this proves possible I can't wait for R* to make GTA 69.
