Cameni,

why not put a survey up to see who would donate to what type of simulation platform? I like the idea of crowd funding.

because 300 people would vote and not the 10,000 you would probably need to start something.

If your going to do a kickstarter.. Do it and we 300 minions will carry it to the 6 corners of the internet.

Cameni,

why not put a survey up to see who would donate to what type of simulation platform? I like the idea of crowd funding.

And if an splitt of the sim-cost would go to the engine-work funds as a separate one to make it able to support the owerall progress of outerra itself ewen in other areas and its core ? Certainly, i would gladly do that, simply for the possibilities and variability of cameni and co.´s work. So all of pro-singlegame and pro-varials could have theyr voices heard.

Anyway, as someone commented on the recent interview, we need to show the possibilities for other simulation domains first. Once the rails and ship show up and the existing stuff is extended, the user base will widen ...

Ahh yes, i see that Kickstarter was mentioned but never thought to Google it. Thought it was a word used to describe your point to make funding possible.

I like Sandboxing. Bridge Builder is a small but great game. This kind of physics-"Game" would be great.

Let's throw away MMOs. There are ten million MMOs and every single MMO pitch sounds exactly like this.

Pollinated content is a good idea! Especially on a huge world like this! But there are serious problems with hosting live MMOs, and every 15 year old geek wants to have second life 2: the cybering. Building an MMO requires a massive capital expense, which frankly few companies that aren't already running MMOs can afford.

MMO's are bad because nobody spells it out anymore..

It is MASSIVE MULTI-PLAYER ONLINE.

Do I want Outerra to have MULTIPLAYER? YES. Do I want it to have the ability to have a MASSIVE amount of players online simultaneously in the same server? YES. Is ONLINE an unnecessary word because it obviously has to be online unless we are talking about a massive lan so why even use the O, really it is just a waste...  YES!

So forget everything you know about MM Games.. Let's try to think outside the box that encompasses all our wants so really we are still in the box just a different more awesome box with less grinding and questing..
