Yay, LE will be here tomorrow.
Sean stated in the stream that due to the way the engine works, it has to render stuff that's offscreen anyway...so I think it may actually be possible without a performance hit.

Shit come on Amazon, ship my LE 
Ah ok, that's promising then.

"hello?" "this is vagina"
From the sounds of it performance is super solid so they probably have some headroom.

I keep refreshing. It is awful not knowing why it hasn't shipped yet.

At this point there's so much contradictory information that I'll just have to decide for myself. I'm not sure why Sean doesn't just state it plainly.
Yup, though with the intention to get it in by release seeing the followup answer.

That would be interesting! I like the idea of exploring the universe in game and bringing alien life back to Earth haha

Anyone with a raw source recording can count frames. I have software for it for console releases so I will be running that but if anyone has it early and has an HDelgato60 and OBS can collect raw.
There are no contradictions really. Just idiots with poor eyesight.
It's 30. No discussion.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's incorrect. Do you have any screenshots from then?

I had a feeling that was the case. Bracing myself for a wonky release.

I just bought a $50 PSN card. Now I have $70 in the account, thinking I was good. The game is $80 Canadian. FUCK! Now I'm contemplating if I should fall for the hype...

Goes through GoG so it just deals with updates. Haven't had a problem with Witcher 3 either.
I think this tech could be applied in a lot of ways beyond a game simulating the universe for space exploration. If you think about how crazy it is to not need to pack the disc/install with assets and still have a near-limitless gameworld in X, Y, Z terms it truly is an accomplishment.
Like, these guys are using the procedural output tech to simulate the rules of our actual galaxies/observable universe in reality, but there's no need for that to be the only use case.
You could have a procedural roguelike that takes place inside a computer system/digital world and in some cases you wouldn't even have to mask the pop-in at all if it fit the lore, and crank up the volume on all the other aspects. Or you could have a Journey-ish game that took place in a totally abstract reality.
The biggest advantage by far, completely outpacing any other factor, is that the technique eliminates loading screens. Yes, there are many tradeoffs due to the fact that you're not loading a hand-crafted level with unbelievably high-res texture work and crazy custom animation and so on, but for certain types of games not having to load is such an enormous asset and key part of the fun.

Mine got updated to Thursday shipping lmao and I ordered back in March and hit "release day shipping"
I'd check or contact customer chat to make sure it's coming tomorrow at this point
Fucking ridiculous and during the chat they said they sent me an email to confirm I still wanted it back in June , they lied lol
This is my last year on prime, 5th year has been worst year for me on prime

I'll tell you a funny story about PC. I was here late yesterday, and I had to take a break and do an interview with Playboy (!) - and the guy was like "what are you working on when you go back downstairs?" and I was like "compatibility for ATI opengl drivers", and he said "ummm.... could you make something up. That sounds pretty nerdy". I always knew I wasn't Playboy article material
Holy shit, haha.

Well it seems I'm not getting in tonight. I tried to grab the psn card off Amazon but it hung at the purchase and eventually said wait 2 hours to see what happens, however the order is listed in cancelled orders. Guess my card said no.

That's some BS right there. They owe you credit at the least! Prime is supposed to get release date shipping, should be release date delivery. Mine still says Tues., but this is some next level BS!

Keep an eye out for Astroneer later this year. Does the weather and man versus nature even better IMO, going by footage

original post
That image is from the one of the IGN First videos from earlier this year where Sean went into the space station and looked at the planet, and said the reticle was the size of the demo area they were at on the planet. My math or estimation could be off, but I don't think enough to turn that planet into 250km.
