    I love how it's just pieces of existing maps stitched together. Quite appropriate for the Forsaken.

I can't wait for that 1 hour long "The Evolution of the Sunken Temple" hope it mentions the quest line to get the egg of hakkar, that you totaly needed to fight the avatar of Hakkar, the troll bosses, the lights i had to activate in order...

  • @iBlueFoxxy
    @iBlueFoxxy Před 8 lety +39

    I never really understood why they didn't/haven't/don't clean up the maps, so less stuff has to be loaded and less overall space is used (gamesize). With so many instances/maps, if you tidy them up and get rid of useless clutter, it should free up a decent amount?

    • @Waniou137
      @Waniou137 Před 8 lety +4

      As a guess, I'd assume that the map files are probably actually the smallest part of the game files. I can't be sure without actually looking at them but I'd assume that things like texture files, sound files and cinematics are, by far, the largest. So while they could clean up the maps, it probably would save a few megabytes at most and wouldn't be worth the extra development time.

    • @victor97O6
      @victor97O6 Před 8 lety +2

      Just ground and hills and stuff won't generate much lag, and won't need much loading, since if you look at it, the ground all the way from untouched classic zones, to todays legion, are very simple, it's just ups and down and most clutter and boxes are actually pretty low poly and low rez, it's the visual fx that are the heavy hitters, and as you may see sometimes late at night, the cities are sometimes lag free because no-one is there, the highest quality textures and models blizzard have made are weapons, armor, and characters.

    • @iBlueFoxxy
      @iBlueFoxxy Před 8 lety

      still useless clutter and i bet it does take up a decent amount when added up

    • @nyxi6689
      @nyxi6689 Před 8 lety +11

      +iBlueFoxxy a very small amonut, this is coming from a game developer. The terrain used in wow is very mimunal in poly count making the actual footprint extremly small, yes it does affect it for like 1-5%, but it will take a huge amount of development time to clean each instance up so its rly not required considering the fact that the resultant performance will be so small to none.

  • @iceborn698
    @iceborn698 Před 8 lety

    Interesting video as usual.
    I don´t know if you already have done a video about how structures have changed over time. Like buildings, details as lamps and other both outside and inside decor. It´s a huge different how a house made for undeads look today then in the beginning, or grass and trees. I just lvl a new alt and I seem to find new structers evrywhere. Last one was in Bloodhoof Village. I don´t know if it always have been Kodoheads on the roof of one of the buildings. But as I suddenly saw it, I thought it was new. But I do believe that your videos has made me more observant of the surroundings, so I am not sure:)

      " copying, rotating and blending pre-existing terrain would take a fraction of the time it would take to build new terrain and get the same quality."
      That's what modern comp-sci is in essence: To reuse whatever you can from elsewhere and still get the desired outcome.

  • @WakoDoodle
    @WakoDoodle Před 8 lety

    Makes me wonder how far they will go with the next Cata Expansion (they hinted that if legions leveling works, they will apply it to the rest of azeroth).
    They still need to update goblins, worgens, a bunch of old models and even cities and many many trees.
    A good example is, in new dalaran; you want to visit the barber? The goblins sits inside the chair; seems an oversight but the fact goblins and worgen were skipped, probably means they don't care.

      Still goblins need more polygons like worgen.
      I guess i didnt think blizz would rush parts of their gamed.

    Hey, Hayven. Are you going to make videos about emerald nightmare and more importantly emerald dream after Xavius?

  • @shivrrrr
    @shivrrrr Před 8 lety +7

    Why does Blizzard not cut most of the inaccessible areas out? Of course you need some trees and structures just outside the arena to create the illusion of scenery, but surely the extra content which is only seen in a map viewer is not needed, it is just extra resources that players have to load.
    It does make for some interesting videos though, but I just can't understand why the developers over att Blizzard do this.

    • @lexthecat1620
      @lexthecat1620 Před 8 lety +7

      Basically it's to make sure that no matter what the player might do or where they might be in the playable area of the map, they'll never ever see just empty void. They'll always see terrain and stuff around the playable area even way far out in the distance. This is usually done by just copy and pasting parts of other zones around the playable area so you get all kinds of structures and other weird things that you'll never actually see but would be more work than is needed to take out.
