Sounds good! Looking forward to seeing all of you in town in a few hours!
I sent you a friend request as well. Psn is Dominik. Rather play with people that have some kinda game plan, my town was a mess yesterday.

We use a new technology called voxel cone tracing, which represents a practically infinite no. of lights in a voxel like structure (that you can't see directly), that also have 3 bounces of light.
If you search for James McLaren Siggraph or GDC he has done a talk describing our technology.
We did this because we needed dynamically changing light with solid structures - ie. when you dig a tunnel into the terrain you need the light to bounce into the tunnel or you are only going to see about a meter into it before it is completely black.

How the heck do I use the email tag? I have two spare beta keys to give
We use the screen stretch information from the PS4's OS, so if you have set that properly it will reflect correctly.
The curved letter boxing is part of the art direction to generate a cinematic experience. (imagine if you are sitting in a cinema with a big screen in front of you, you naturally get some curvature)
This kind of thing is a part of my mind's eye style, and if you look up my photography (dckyoto on flickr) or previous games I have made you will see this kind of thing a lot (PixelJunk Sidescroller, NomNomGalaxy etc)
That was a misunderstanding - I was referring to materials for things like E3, TGS and that kind of thing.

Hey man, sorry to ask something that's been brought up a number of times in the thread, if it's already been answered I must have missed it but assuming the DOF is a part of the artistic direction too just wondering if there's any control over it in the settings? It's just I went to look for it in the options last time but the menu is locked out for the beta it seems. Anyway can't wait to get back in to it tonight, congrats, this is a really unique game.

I should clarify that I know nothing, and Dylan may have said too much.
During the alpha, an offhand comment by Dylan which I won't repeat for fear that I've gotten him in enough trouble already
led me to believe this wasn't planned to be a retail release on the scale of Bloodborne or inFamous. But that was just my guess, based on little, and it was during the alpha. It's pretty clear the scope has increased significantly from what was going on in the alpha, and I get the impression that was actually in response to the reception the alpha received, but I dunno how much it's actually increased, or where it currently sits.I would suspect that if this game is getting a retail release, it'd be similar to the physical release for Quest for Booty; still a "standard" downloadable game, but bolstered by a physical release in digital-averse regions like EU, and maybe Japan? Anyway, I dunno if I'd get my hopes up for steelbooks or anything like that, since I'm not really sure that was ever planned originally.
Sorry, Dylan. Hope I didn't get you into any trouble. <3
That's what I was saying about a first-things-first strategy, and that's why I was trying to get a cop shop built in my initial impressions post. Build just enough domiciles to unlock the cop shop, build that, and then build your defenses. Once you can defend your claim, then you can start adding more facilities.
Accepted! I added Grizzly too.
lol When I thought I was gonna be stuck out all night, I seriously considered trying to RP via cellular tether.
Kinda completely off-topic, but since it came up tangentially and you may know Devs can detect when games are being played by Remote Play and implement a custom, Vita-friendly control scheme for when it does, but can they use the same hooks to deliver an extra-large UI at the same time? I'm not really sure how the alternate controls are implemented on the back end.
MGS GAF is life.
Yeah look for Leevi and that's the gaf town, also add grizzly, his psn is above somewhere.

When you get to the town, go back to the subway and go to the friend tab and click on my name.
I think you can just craft it too - pretty sure I crafted shells at the workbench
