so the next thing we want to talk about is I mentioned before the beginning of the video is that there's going to be this world perimeter change now what does that mean, about the world perimeter because it's getting a major change so the world perimeter is sort of what it sounds like it's the edges of the world right but it's, the the playable area of the game has not changed the world perimeter that we're talking about here is the non-playable areas beyond the play area yeah it's basically just the look and feel of you know when you're standing and looking out outside the playable area what that look and feel sort of looks like like the vistas and things like that so previously you know or currently as you guys are playing, the most of the world's perimeter is just fog or ocean right and not really much is going out there but now we're gonna have these gorgeous expansive Vistas and one of the things that I really really love about, this world perimeter change is when you're looking out, in the Vista and you see the biome changes between, the the the world perimeter like where you kind of go and you see those those transitions I really really love those another thing I love is like when you're in the, like the the grass fields or something and you look out over towards the Dune desert and you see massive like Dune desert mountains and things like that, looming Over the Horizon I don't know if it's still going to be like that by the time this video comes out but that's what it was like when I saw it and it looked really really cool and so in update 8 the world perimeter, will not be done okay but the intention is to re rework it all by by 1.0 okay so some of the areas are done and the areas that will be done is going to be the Dune desert, which has like these really like nice mountains and this big like cool sinkhole looking thing, the swamp is going to get some World perimeter and also the grass fields which you know has some like more like really expensive grass fields and like Lush mountains in the back, so those are the three areas that are going to get these World perimeter, treatment, and everything else will get a well primitive treatment, that's the plan, by 1.0 yeah so these areas were just the areas that we felt were in the most need for some kind of love and so I think I think that makes sense and the other thing is like so far this this the playable area that you've been on has always felt like an island on an alien planet right because it was always surrounded by water but Our intention with the world perimeter is to better suggest that you're just on one part of an entire planet like that this planet goes on beyond what you can see and and influence, and- I think it looks really great and I love that idea as well and, I think I think it goes a long way to to changing what it feels like to be on the alien planet massage to ABV, yeah I love it now you might be thinking these World perimeter things that man that must take a long time to make all these like really gorgeous assets but actually we use this tool called Gaia which generates like really large elements or pieces that we use to construct this stuff so like shout out to that, for making it really doable for us to make these really gorgeous, World perimeter Vistas and they things like that and also we're gonna we're probably gonna be tweaking the fog so that you can actually see the vistas a little better in the future so, that's another change that we'll probably be coming okay so that's what's coming in update eight and you may be
