The most expensive MMO in the world is so real that even bed covers crumple realistically

Many players want their games to look as real as possible. Now the world’s most expensive MMO, Star Citizen, has shown how realistically bed covers crumple. And the community agrees that this is the last feature you really need right now.

The MMO Star Citizen is considered the most expensive MMO in the world, because the game is now worth over 450 million US dollars. The team behind it regularly develops new content and wants to convince old and new players of their own world. But the possible release date of Star Citizen is still a long way off.

A new feature has now been introduced in the latest update: Because NPCs can now relax and go to bed. But the real highlight is the bedding.

Crumple bedding is the highlight of Star Citizen’s new update

What is presented now? The development team behind Star Citizen regularly sends out updates and announcements for the game via email. In the “development report” from April 2022, the developers had now explained that they had dealt with an important part of the life of the NPCs: sleeping. Because now NPCs can also rest and go to bed to sleep.

Anyone who now thinks that the sleep cycle is the new highlight is wrong. Because the developers explained that the special thing about it was the realistically crumpled bed linen.

We knew early on that in order to achieve the level of realism expected of Squadron 42, we would have to deal with the deformation of bed sheets. If this succeeds, the AI ​​will be able to deform her bed sheet when entering, exiting, or sleeping in it. This is a difficult task and increases the complexity of the function. For example, what happens to the sheets if the AI ​​has to leave the bed in an emergency?

But what the developers are enthusiastic about makes many users in the Star Citizen community just shake their heads. Because many are wondering whether such a “feature” is even necessary.

The community is divided on how useful this “feature” really is

For example, on reddit, users discussed how important and useful virtual bed linen really is. And there’s pretty much a consensus that you’d rather have a finished game than features like virtual blankets that can crumple. And there are definitely people who believe that the game is more marketing than an actual game.

Some users even mock what will probably come next? In the future, could you watch people realistically go to the toilet? And another probably says what many probably think:

Yes, the stuff is cool, but you shouldn’t do something like this until all the main features are ready and you still have time before the official release.

Some users now fear that they will no longer experience the release of Star Citizen. Because during the Kickstarter campaign it was said that Star Citizen would be released at the end of 2014. It’s now 2022. In an interview, however, Chris Roberts, the boss behind Star Citizen, stated that the game will definitely come.
