A couple more from Star Citizen, i like these sun set shots, thee atmosphere light scattering is always gorgeous, the first one the sun was just setting when i arrived there, i waited 10 minutes or so for it to drop a little further in the sky to capture those, the planet is Pyro IV.
The second one our crew mate needed to log off for 10 minutes, so we landed in this random place on Stanton I Hurston so he could log off and in a again in his ships bed, we waited for him.
The thing that i always find astonishing about this is that the star you see there is a real entity in space, it is the light source and its millions of KM away, what's more because of Server Meshing you're looking at it across serval servers, few games have Server Meshing, the first was Ultima Online, this is another game by one of Chris Roberts Studios (Origin Systems) its where the term "Shard" was coined, this is to describe an single player instance made up of multiple meshed servers, on top of that being able to see from one server in to another has never been done before, let alone across multiple servers, and you're also able to effect an adjacent server, like shoot across it and kill some one.
1,000 Million $ and 8 years of development work (in its current guise) and counting.....
