A New Game

" Hi, I'm Notch, and this is my new game. It's going to be a space game, and it's quite ambitious!
The game is still extremely early in development, but like we did with Minecraft, we expect to release it early and let the players help me shape the game as it grows.

The cost of the game is still undecided, but it's likely there will be a monthly fee for joining the Multiverse as we are going to emulate all computers and physics even when players aren't logged in.



Backstory and Setting
"In a parallel universe where the space race never ended, space travel was gaining popularity
amongst corporations and rich individuals.

In 1988, a brand new deep sleep cell was released, compatible with all popular 16 bit computers. Unfortunately, it used big endian, whereas the DCPU-16 specifications called for little endian. This led to a severe bug in the included drivers, causing a requested sleep of 0x0000 0000 0000 0001 years to last for 0x0001 0000 0000 0000 years.

It's now the year 281 474 976 712 644 AD, and the first lost people are starting to wake up to a universe on the brink of extinction, with all remote galaxies forever lost to red shift, star formation long since ended, and massive black holes dominating the galaxy.



Game Features
"The game is still very early in development, but here is a list of things we hope to include:

Hard science fiction.
Lots of engineering.
Fully working computer system.
Space battles against the AI or other players.
Abandoned ships full of loot.
Duct tape!
Seamlessly landing on planets.
Advanced economy system.
Random encounters.
Mining, trading, and looting.
Single and multi player connected via the multiverse.




The Generator and the Computer
"Each ship has a generator capable of producing a fixed wattage, and everything you connect to it drains wattage. A cloaking field, for example, might require almost all the power from the generator, forcing you to turn off all computers and dim all lights in order to successfully cloak.

The computer in the game is a fully functioning emulated 16 bit CPU that can be used to control your entire ship, or just to play games on while waiting for a large mining operation to finish.

Full specifications of the CPU will be released shortly, so the more programatically advanced of you can get a head start.		2012-04-04 01:40:00

Didn't see this before, apparently you don't have to pay the monthly fee if you play single player. (First paragraph on the website, Notch must have updated it.)2012-04-04 13:50:00

Okay, first of all GUYS, HE SAID HE MIGHT ADD A SUBSCRIPTION FEE, IT'S NOT A DEFINATE "There will be a subscription fee of ?100,000,000,000,000 per day!". Seriously, CHILL.

Now that's out of the way...
Personally, I think the whole idea of this game is brilliant, and I have no problem with a monthly fee(As long as it's not too expensive. Besides, I doubt he'll add one with all this negative feedback about it). One of the most interesting features I've heard is that the computer for your Ship will allow you to write programs for it, of course keeping in mind the limitation of the CPU being 16-Bit. But, you could install DOS or an early Windows version on it, and play Minecraft on it(Something a friend said would be funny is to play Scrolls within Minecraft within 0x10c, which would be completely awesome). This could possibly revolutionise the Play Create Share genre. Of course, those who aren't interested with the Ship Computer for games could just use it to control their ship to do awesome mining opperations and things like that. Alternatively, if you think "Subscription fee? Not for me, thanks. I'll stick to Minecraft.", there is a Singleplayer mode which requires no Subscription fee(And see the thing I put first with all the Underline and Bold tags). Come on guys, most of you spend loads of time wiring up complex machines in LBP, so why not move on to programming something awesome inside 0x10c?

Although, I must admit, I am a Programmer myself, so it seems a lot more awesome and less daunting to me than a lot of you. But you don't have to program anything, you could just use the Ship computer to control the Ship and maybe play some Bejeweled every now and then.

I am definately in full support of this game. But that's just me, what about all of you?... *Notices previous posts concentrating only on the subscription fees* *Writes above bit with all the underlines and bold tags*... Seriously, don't nitpick about a feature which may not even be in the game anyway.		2012-04-04 23:47:00

Im sorry, but I had another seemingly amazing game (Cities XL) go down the crapper because of a monthly fee to play online (and to patch your game). So I frown upon games that have monthly fees.		2012-04-04 23:52:00

Hmm, now which one of those two things would cause it to fail? The Monthy fees, or the patching?... I wonder which?
Seriously, I can understand monthly fees, but patching fees are stupid and whoever made that decision should get the blame for it failing.
Anyway, let's get this discussion back on track, and not turn this into a spam thread filled with complaints about Subscription fees.

EDIT: Oh, and the game's called 0x10c, not Ox10c.		2012-04-05 01:23:00

Game sounds retarded. Where the hell is the fun in coding a program in a game that is using a 16-Bit computer? 16 BIT? What is this? 1990? I aim to be a software engineer and I find the features of this game too boring so God knows how boring it sounds to someone that doesn't even know what coding means. I mean really? Reading some of his tweets and he's talking about making people write their own coding for the computer, WITH ACTUAL CODING TERMS! Writing codes to stop viruses from entering your computer, having to write codes for the physics of the game, this is much too complicated for 90% of his fanbase.

I don't think this game will do nearly as well as Minecraft, he seems to be aiming this game at a small 1% of gamers (again, can you even call this a game?).

And I love your optimism about the monthly fees but let's get real here. He says it's LIKELY there will be a monthly fee. He also replied to a tweet asking why he announced the monthly fee so early and he replied: "To get the bad news out as soon as possible."

So, yeah. Pretty much absolutely sure there will be a monthly fee.		2012-04-05 07:58:00

If games had a smell. this game smells like fail.

high chance of a monthly fee if you wanna play online with other people?
Coding Based Gameplay Thingy? (I know nothing about any form of coding myself)

Well... Color me not interested in this. (Though i will keep a small watch on it to see how it all ends up panning out.)

To me, this seems to be a bit like a test from Notch. I think, since Minecraft was such a huge success, Notch is essentially seeing what he can get away with selling to the fans that he's accumulated over the past few years, who may buy it regardless of the actual quality or premise of the game.2012-04-05 10:00:00

This.

To be honest, though, what really killed my interest in this game was how he's introducing it to us.

? monthly fees
? "the community helps make the game"

He's basically pulling off another Minecraft here, only this time he'll be charging people to make the game, then charge people to patch their game with the COMMUNITY made updates. He's being a lazy developer now (well at least more than he was before), so it's a stupid proposition to make for such a boring game. If I wanted to run a classic game inside a program then I would use an emulator. Notch is just being stupid now.

Also, I've seen him code in one of his livestreams; he has as much knowledge of coding as an amateur.		2012-04-06 00:58:00

I think you're all making assumptions here, he's hardly said anything about the game yet and you all seem to be thinking this is just a coding program. I'm pretty sure coding is just one aspect of the game. I still don't think the coding part sounds at all interesting either, and I also hate monthly fees, but I'm not going to start bashing the game until we hear what else the game does.

To be honest, he might not even finish the game. Anyone remember Minitale (minitale.net)?		2012-04-06 23:17:00

He has actually talked a lot about the game, look up his twitter.

Here is what we know so far;

-The game has no textures (just a few)
-Flat colored polygons with modern lighting
-Game is aimed to look like this game (in terms of graphics)
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6d/ST_Frontier.png
-Game will have a monthly fee
-When you log off, the coding you did for your ship's computer will stay online, your ship will orbit or whatever you coded it to do (this is where the monthly fee is needed).

It's pretty much a sure-fire way to get money, Notch is creating the base of the game and the people will create the rest of the game (just like Minecraft).

You do know Notch has only been working on this for a couple of weeks, tops?

Dudes, have you seen the pictures of how Minecraft looked when it was in early stages of development? It looked much worse than that. There wasn't any health, items, mobs, liquid blocks, stairs, tools, plants, redstone, doors, alternate dimensions, pets, multiplayer, there wasn't anything of that. It was just you, a flat, misty and boring flatland and a dozen blocks to play with. And now, it's the awesomest game ever.

Have faith and just give him a few months. One addition and update at a time and you'll see it'll become much more interesting.		2012-04-08 23:46:00

Have faith and just give him a few months. One addition and update at a time and you'll see it'll become much more interesting.

I don't think you understand the situation for this game. Let me make it a bit clearer:

Pre-Minecraft
- he had a small budget; asked for donations
- it was clearly a small scale sandbox game
- like most of his previous works, it was a rip-off of an existing game
- he posted everywhere asking for people to play it

Minecraft after release
- MODS made the game better
- he got millions of dollars from the game
- he made a company to help run it
- HE LEFT MINECRAFT, TOLD HIS TEAM TO DO THE REST OF THE WORK, AND THEN TOOK CREDIT FOR MAJORITY OF IT
- MineCon was an overpriced marketing event for his game Scrolls; he also criticized the Yogast team and tried to save face

Minecraft Now
- again, MODS MADE THE GAME
- he's no longer developing it (although he hardly did anything good with it to begin with)
- he's filthy rich

Now, you may have noticed that I mentioned his wealth quite a few times. While this new game is still in early development, let's consider the obvious:

• he's a terrible programmer
• he's greedy
• he let's everybody else finish his work and passes it off as his own

The stream is just a fine example of how he's using his "fame" to sell the game. He's STILL using Java even though he has the money now for better things, he's not taking criticism well (he's banning everybody who says something negative; he also asked in the chat "How do I turn off the chat?"), and he's trying to appeal to the hip, young audience since he knows he's not getting far with the stream. Not only this, but he's making the game require a monthly fee for online; this doesn't seem so bad, but when you realize that his games are s**t without mods or community made things you'll see how this is a big con for us. He even said it himself in the game's official site:


...like we did with Minecraft, we expect to release it early and let the players help me shape the game as it grows.

He's basically making Minecraft 2.0, only this time with a monthly fee, terrible graphics/textures (which the community will most likely need to fix themselves, followed by Notch adding it as a patch and claiming he helped make the game what it is), and halfassed coding.


------

Stream is over, and holy crap was it funny. This really got me (copied and pasted):

SN11PED: guys, what game is he making
Notchislarge: Minecraft 2
Naviil: will Minecraft have guns? I like guns
**Stream stops here and screen goes to black.**

Give the man some credit. Considering Minecraft is one of the most innovative games around and was made almost all by him, it's a huge achievement. He took ideas off of popular mods, so what? He's shaping the game into what the community wants it to be. One of Minecraft's strengths is the possibility to customize it with mods, so what? It is meant to be something vanilla, a broad plaform which you can expand and style the way you want.

What's the deal with you and Notch? Did he spit on your cereal or something?		2012-04-09 12:50:00

I don't really see why you think he's greedy, he seems far from greedy to me. He gave a huge amount of money to his employees, he's ignored a load of blatant Minecraft rip-offs which he could easily have a case for if he tried to sue and he's very generous when it comes to giving to charity. He just seems to give no ****s about money because he already has piles of the stuff.2012-04-09 17:48:00

Maybe because he promised a lot of stuff for minecraft and then just ran off with the money? I think that's greedy. I wont get into a discussion about that on here, I just came here to dump this screenshot of 0x10c:

• he's greedy


I agree with Doopz Notch is not greedy.
He has given allot of money to a couple of charities.

Although I have to admit 0x10c looks like complete ****.
And why is he still using Java?
I mean he has a much higher budget this time.
Why cant he use a better programming language?
But whatever I don't know anything about programming.		2012-04-12 22:09:00

Yup, it's the TF2 soldier. He said over Twitter that he's using it as a placeholder until he has his won model.2012-04-13 17:35:00

Because he can't program in any other languages. He can't even program properly in Java.		2012-04-18 15:54:00

OR, he could start a company to do the work for him, make the game a 'community developed' MMO, and hire a guy to fix the game later after he breaks it.

Honestly I think this game will be fun to play in the future, just imagine being on a custom-built ship flying on a massive server with players on their own planets. I think it could be very interesting.		2012-10-12 22:40:00

Maybe the crappy graphics, assuming they dont change, will turn away stupid people we dont want playing the game, so that the only people left are people playing the game, just for the game. Id like that, considering this seems like my ideal game.2012-10-14 20:45:00

Holy jeez there's so much negativity in here... The videos look pretty cool, and it's not even in alpha yet. The camera bob and physics and lighting looks really well programmed, but I could be wrong... I have no idea how to program anything.2012-10-14 20:59:00

That's a terrible way of looking at it. Expecting a lesser game so it puts off 'stupid people we don't want playing the game'?
I think he doesn't even need to consider such a thing due to the whole subscription based approach. That will even turn off people who already see it as their ideal game.

For a dude who came up with an awesome concept, he's pretty dumb at times. His post minecraft efforts seem a little dull (opinion; obviously).		2012-10-14 22:06:00

I mean if he keeps those graphics then there will be people who dont play it because of that, which are people I wouldnt want playing the game in the first place. And theres also no guarantee that itll be subscription based.2012-10-15 16:41:00

The website seems to detail that since it's some kind of massive server running 24/7, the funds will be needed to run it. (Massive galaxy or something?)
However, if you play the game alone, you won't need to pay.

Still, it would be nice if there was the option to run your own server without subscription, and let friends join.		2012-10-15 22:13:00

I don't know why some people are so hard headed that they still don't believe the game will be subscription based. I will post a video of me eating a hat if this game doesn't have a monthly fee.2012-10-15 22:44:00

Although I did have a rather unfortunate mishap when I was little involving a futuristic machine capable of combining objects and a hard hat, why are you so sure the game is going to have a subscription fee?
