Probably not in the same way that Elite’s planets are cubes (there’s a video with the excellent Dr Ross describing how ED’s inflated cubes work) - seeing as they are a separate space from…er, space, then I’d guess they are flat planets working like a massive Pac Man map (assuming you could travel completely “around” one).Does this mean planets are cubes?

Some tests from a player removing actual boundaries.
Have you considered spreading the good word of SC in the Starfield thread?
Just a funny observation, for someone who doesn't play Starfield you sure can explain how it works. Dare I say with the same confidence as when you explain stuff in Star Citizen.
Quite possible, though it could only be known for sure if they were asked why they haven't reviewed Star Citizen yet.
Yes, I linked to the Reddit thread by the creator of those videos in an earlier post - an important bit is at the end of the video description:
“Regarding performance: Yes, I get low fps and loading screens. I am forcing the game to run on Ultra on a below-specs card, and am further stressing the game by moving quickly and forcing it to quickly load and unload an enormous quantity of data. This is not regular gameplay, so concentrate on the important aspects of the video.”
This is like a proof-of-concept of what might be possible when the Creation Kit comes along early next year - a buggy pre-Alpha or something along those lines
I think we’ll be seeing interplanetary travel and ground vehicles in 2024.
Levelcap hasn't been reading reddit or spectrum otherwise he'd know not to do the dastardly thing of comparing

Amazing. Just amazing.
You can see people's minds turning into rubix cubes in that thread...
'CIG are of course a little bad because I did not get my 600i skin, but they are also very good because nobody has done footprints that prove the game is not a scam before. Although I do think they are also a bit scammy because I bought the Polaris, but I do love the Polaris so I must conclude that they are good.'

Look, unless he's offering to sell you jpegs for hundreds or thousands of dollars, and building up a studio and spending 11 years on a pre-alpha of his work, he's not revolutionizing gaming. Where's the cash grab?! Where's the long posts of technical word salad saying nothing about actual progress?

Because only few keep playing broken games.If you think so, it must be true ! Why there is no thousands of reviews by players on Metacritic ? And no matter how many times I click on refresh, there's still no review from the press
You should say it to metacritic, they seem to not understand it...

That would mean CIG staff are just as clueless as their fans, which explains the overall progress of the game.Oh my

Apparently then, I'm living in an alternate reality...
Also on a personal note, I'm really enjoying Starfield. I'm only about 8 hours in, with 2 mods so far (the StarUI Inventory mod is excellent).
I think the more relevant comparison should be with Squadron 42, so we'll just have to wait and see how they compare. (Hmmm, did I just create a third alternate reality, one in which SQ42 gets released?)
And...wrong again, you can have locations for a certain number of tiles stored and those tiles remain generated while you have that stored data, but over that limit, I believe the default is 5, each time you explore a new tile the oldest tile is removed, the tiles will cover the entire surface area of the planet if you want to explore methodically but the game won't keep all that data stored since that would mean storing the location data in excess of 100 million tiles, so you can see where it's impractical to store all that data. Of course storing it is one thing, it could be done I suppose given the storage space and computer power, but then the player actually looking at a list of 100m+ locations and picking out the one they want?
