"Elect other players"

Does that mean I can have a dictatorship?

"Crash like real vehicles"

Like what? BeamNG? Next Car Game?

"One Person. One house"

Stupid idea. Low player count servers because of not enough houses

Doesn't look promising

Yes, someone can be really bad president and he also can get assassinated.

i think they mean tiers can blow up engines can stop working hydraulics and other stuff, not sure

its an open world game they said the map size is going to be at least 270 square kilometers, and they will be urban city's, also you can buy or rent any house you see in the map, i think apartment are unlimited

EDIT : they didn't say how many players per server but they said its a lot

Loading times are going to be *slow* then. 270^2 km, and that many houses? ARMA has a bad time running Altis, when all the houses have nothing in them

have you ever played an MMO ? a place won't render unless you arrive near it, and houses and apartment will load when you enter them,

i'm not 100% sure if that't the way they're going to do it, but its in every MMO

If Unity can handle KSP now, and FPS engine CryEngine is a base for Star Citizen, I`m pretty sure that some talented devs could do a space game on Unreal 4.

As for Identity - I had no idea about it, but I`m not a fan of "life sim" type of games so its not for me I guess.

I have tried Altis Life a few times and it's... well, I'm glad it's free. Someone must like that type of game I guess, because they keep getting made.

You can make whatever game you like in the big engines, limited somewhat by the skill of the devs. Perhaps this year we'll see someone make a close copy of KSP. It's a genre that needs more than one game in it.

do you think if someone made a copy of KSP and even better, will that make KSP lose some people ?

It may not be "like KSP" but I'm using Unreal 4 for Science of the Spheres. Maybe that counts?
