0x10c - Notch's new game is an MMO

Unread postby Klas » 4 Apr 12, 9:52 am

Website and feature list is up here: http://0x10c.com/

...I'll copy the main points:

  • 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.


Sounds really interesting. I love hard sci-fi, space trading and programming, I'll definitely be following this one closely.

Minecraft has never really done it for me but that sounds pretty interesting.

Why does it have to be an MMO?

You'd rather play this sort of thing against AI?

This is gonna be a killer MMO.

Notch has to learn how to do netcode properly first :P Or throw buckets of money at someone to do it for him. Never really cared for MMO's myself but I'll still see how this goes I guess. Rather die than pay monthly for a game though.

Hopefully he won't do this in Java, which will mean it'll be a lot more stable than MC
