Ocean Pictures!

I got them off of IRC. They're also in the subreddit.

 

Where's my towel?

 

The sand looks amazing, and there even appears to be two types? I hope there's some cool stuff waiting to be found underwater, as well as a good place to build my underwater evil lair scientific research base.

Also I agree the border between the background water and the real water should be more distinct.

 

Beautiful pictures.

 

makes me want to go to the beach and relax in the sun tobad its winter where i live and raining like crazy

 

Man. Thanks for sharing this. This game is looking fantastic.

 

My thoughts, in actual chronological order:

1. Cool, alien palm trees. I likes it.

2. The ocean does look really good.

3. Oh my God, we can SIT!

 

I think (well, hope) it's because of the tide. It would be awesome to have totally pointless things like that in the game. Although tides aren't necessarily pointless, they might provide useful opportunities for exploration or maybe new threats...

The sun definitely needs to stay bright, in my opinion. Unless, of course, this particular planet has an odd athmosphere which scatters light in a weird way.

It would be nice to be able to see clearly where the "real" water starts. However, [wildspeculation] I imagine the ocean as having some kind of parallax effect, so in-game the boundary would be more obvious [/wildspeculation].

This is my first post on this forum, and I must say that I'm really excited about this game. I just hope it won't disappoint (doubt it will, though).

 

Awesome, end of discussion.

Agreed, as of now the background combined with water makes is somewhat hard to sea *badum tsh* where exactly the sea starts.

 

Look's fantastic!

 

Is that a wave in pic 1?!

 

Awesome pictures!

 

I am throwing my debit card at the screen... Why doesnt it work?

 

Try putting it in the DVD place.

 

Thats a great idea!

 

If you can see the difference between the real water and background, their are actually waves!

 

Wonderful!

 

It look really wonderful! This gets me really excited. Though all those rays on the sun seem a bit distracting? Maybe that's just me.

 

I just made a picture so you can see the water easier
Assuming it is a wave, I would love to see how it comes into play.

 

Looks very nice. Probably the best ocean I've seen in a sandbox game so far.

Wonder what the deeper areas look like....
