Sometimes if you reached parts of the map where there are supposed to be mountains, the elevation was more rough, texture change to something rocky, but you couldn’t go up and look back and stare the world. You were seeing a slightly elevated heightmap with polygons, lost in fog. I was trying to see how much it takes to reach from one pixel on the map to the next running with the horse and iirc it took me 10 minutes! I have heard that someone from the dev or testing team said they tried to walk from one side of the map to the other and it took 2 weeks.īut of course the outside was procedurally generated as other people said and I want to add it was weak (but fair for the times). ? If your reading this in 2015 or something, the price will most likely be much lower or Steam will not exist. It’s also on Steam for $10 so I might buy it. It has mixed reviews so it’s up to you to decide. FUEL is strictly racing, you cant get out of your car. If you like open world racing games, this one you’ll probably like. It’s also multi-player so you can play online with other people. Nothing to do except race the only other existing people and explore the massive world. No traffic, no pedestrians, accelerated day-night cycle, not much action except for races.
#FAR CRY 2 MAP SIZE FREE#
o.O The only problem is…some people say that free ride mode can get a little boring. It is apparently 5000 Square Miles in size. Bigger than Skyrim, bigger than Just Cause 2. To end this argument I have to say that an open world racing game game called FUEL (2009) apparently has the largest map of all time. So far Bethesda appears to be the only company holding up such great standards in game design with Fallout and Elder Scroll. No game should be completable in less than a week of straight fanatical play, and even if you can complete it, you should have other options, choices, ways to do things. Games are getting simpler (Content wise) not more open, and personally I dislike it, I want to pick my own story, otherwise I would read a book.

Though you have open ended exploration still available. The newer games (outside of Bethesda) seem to getting more narrow, even Skyrim seems to be somewhat narrow when it comes to dungeons, it is one directional. The simple fact that it was made almost 2 decades ago, and no game has ever come close to such a feat since, I consider it a legendary game. It trumps any game out there for choices, vast number of skills and directions to take your character, and the number of spells available in the game even. It was truely open ended, like Morrow Wind you could even kill people that were part of the main story line. Personally if you upped the graphics and interactions, I would take daggerfall over any game on your list. Size is not everything, otherwise people would still be playing daggerfall all the time. Great job though, unknown person who made this, it was a very worthwhile project. Probably about Oblivion-sized or smaller. 62,000 square miles for Daggerfall? Could you walk the entire thing? I’m also curious as to where Fallout 3’s Wasteland would be on here. As for the other maps that were too big to even be pictured? Are those all really open world or are they cheating somehow. But I suppose they have different servers and all that.īurnout Paradise is a bit of a surprise, but I suppose its less of a big deal if you get to drive around all the time. I also imagined World of Warcraft to be a lot bigger with 10 million players having to squeeze in. I thought JC was bigger, but Oblivion always seemed so damn massive to me (probably because you were hoofing it everywhere), but it’s one of the smaller ones here. Surprises include just how tiny GTA III’s map is in comparison (didn’t it seem huge at the time?) and how small Oblivion’s world is compared to Just Cause. The picture pits various open world video game maps up against each other in terms of scale.

This is a rather cool image that’s answered a question I had recently.
