Forget all this persistent entity stuff and server meshing, the real question is when do we get this?!?!
Will the sandworm ever make it into the game?
- Thread starter Montoya
- Start date
I sure hope so. I mean you can't show off space worms and space whales and not have them in game.
I need to see the big worm eat a spaceship!
hmm as much as I like to see those thing I assume CIG realize there could be some IP property problem someware in thare...
So while spacewhale area an original design and so pose no problem THAT design of a sand worrm is unlikely to be ever implemented, may be with a different shape and aspect but then it won't be a san worm as anybody immagine it.

Nah was just a visual effect made for one of Jaxx's intros for Galactic Gear or whatever the show's called.
Shadow Reaper
Space Marshal
There are more than a dozen interesting fauna waiting AI sufficient to make them interesting.

Can you make it have, you know, at least 1 tooth?
There is a lot of creatures that have concept done but so far not seen in the pu. Part of me thinks they are saved for sq42.
I'm waiting for the savage GNF Pikachu to release

Going to get like 100+ of these, set them on hostile, and let them loose on my ship. Enter if you dare

Aaaah, that's the cutest thing I ever seen! I'm gonna call CR right now and order him to get on with it ASAP!
If we get sandworms we're going to need something big enough to haul them....

BMM, the hard part is just getting it inside.
If that turns out too hard, the Hull C might have enough space outside. If not, the Hull D or E would do it It's just a packing issue.
With the hull D or E, you will need to chop it up first, not take one whole.
that said, the sand worm will not make it in as it’s displayed. Way to similar to another Sci-fi universe. The wampa like snow creature is different as both can be traced to Snow Yeti’s or abominable snowmen.
that said, before we can have fauna roaming about, they need to have the overhead to run those creatures, that means things like dynamic server meshing. Once that comes in, I suspect we will start seeing improvements to the NPCs and how they act.
I love the fact that CR made the worlds real and not part of a hero zone, but by doing so, he made the inclusion of active AI a much harder prospect, one that is almost impossible without a allowing the use of dynamic server meshing, allowing players to be in the world and apart of the whole verse, but still be in a simulation that has enough overhead to make NPCs effective. Once that happens, say goodbye to soloing certain missions because the AI can’t keep up.
