EP. 170 | The Most Notable Hive Cities
🕑 Added 2024-11-16 23:36:36 +0000 UTCToday we start our foray into hive cities by talking about their more well known specimens. From the networked social bonds of Desoleum to the pollution and destruction of Helsreach, we'll talk about these specific cities' quirks and features to get an idea of how Hive Cities as a whole function.
P.S. Sorry for the real late upload. We're still trying to get back into the swing of all things podcast post-Japan and we should be back to normal soon!

That's just an advanced lod system tbh I'd say Minecraft does this best especially if you install sodium, which can change chunks to be 16x16x16 instead of 16x16x383 and it also has a chunk unloader installed so you could walk into the next chunk and the previous will be dumped into memory and then unloaded so you only render the current chunk.
Mr7ellow
Minecrafts engine could do a hive city very well. As long as you install a fast chunk unloader.

Could we get more like videos on the primarchs? Like more in depth of how the traitor primarchs fell into chaos and how they became daemon primarchs (like fulgram’s story from beauty to snake guy, or Morty going from pale basement dweller to spreader of mtg tournament BO)
Travis Stephens

Praise Mata Nui, BIONICLE is still being tked about in 2024. My original lore obsession.
Anthony Montoya
I love the random deep cuts Koda gives cause in no way did I think Bionicles would be mentioned
Battery Level Low
I'd love either video to be honest, I hope YouTube pulls enough weight to get that one in the game
Battery Level Low
I'm gonna guess main video, this was those 2-4 paragraph hives probably
Battery Level Low
Well I was wrong, but I love hive cities so this is definitely my favorite so far, oh well maybe I'll get to see my favorite subject at some point later Hydra Dominatus
DestinyHunter31
Unreal Engine has something kinda similar to what you were thinking about rendering. It's distance based. Example: say you were sanding next to a rock and you start to move away from it. As you move away from it the engine will lower the polygon count on that rock the further you get away from it. The opposite is also true as you move towards it. Fairly simplified from my understanding of the system but it's so cool
Morgan Crane
For Dark Mechanicum, against Deathwatch
Battery Level Low
So starting off, before I even get past the intro, there ain't no way this is just a hive city video
Louis
I can't believe you forgot the city where Cain grew up!
Amy Strong
Where is necromunda? Also great video.
Stefan25

How did you talk about well known Hive Cities without mentioning the ones on Necromunda?! Great vid regardless.
Josh Smith
Hey Y'all! If anyone is interested in seeing a Hive City represented as a setting, you should look up the Three Black Halflings podcast and their series "City of the Black Rose". It is self described as a "Gothic Horror series with strong Noir elements" and the setting is the City-State of Mavros: The City of The Black Rose. It is a city with three layers to it, all built on top of each other, and reminded me of a Hive City when I first listened to it described on the podcast. If you like D&D and want some magical steampunk gothic horror, please give it a try, I highly recommend it!

The hives makes me think of SLA industries. Now, there is a grimdark dystopia that rivals 40k. "Don't shoot civilians!" "why not?" "the paperwork it a chore" Also, I wonder if Shadows of Doubt could be a good platform to build a hiveworld.

A vote for future coverage: Yvraine and Ynnead The Exodites

Not to be that guy, but did necromunda got channeled until the void?
Mitch Barton
If you liked the grudges that last for centuries vibes, you should really check out the movie Klaus!
Bảo Huỳnh
tertium just casually have 4 crackheads slaughtering thousands of heretics and miliion of infected every day is so funny to me
L4Lenny
You know we likely won't get the heresy video until we cover all the legions so a vote for the Emperors Children is really just helping to set up the many dominos required for The Great Video
DYLAN MONTGOMERY
Me frothing at the mouth waiting for this episode

Gregory Sullivan
ECCLESIARCHY
Alden John bridges this is my full legal name
So everyone stop thinking now and vote for ecclesiarchy now if you don’t I will gut you like the night Lords and I know where all of you live and will find you
Michael Pommerer
The ecclesiarchy is definitely the Alpha Legion. If you think about it, it definitely makes sense. If you don't think about it, it makes even more sense.
Bored skulls
The Terminators will stomp all the way to the 12 hour Heresy video
Luke Morton
It's not just a "war machine" It's a "war home"

Thank you both for your hard work & effort, please be well, and avoid cars Koda, they are not your thing

Daddyssy
Pedro Pages
I love the Bionicle reference Koda! It's yeah a lot like Metru Nui, of the idea of what a Hive City is like 110%.
I am Alpharius, maybe
Ok, so after doing some weak math. On Terra alone, there is approximately one person per every sq ft
Waaaaaagh
I would not be surprised if both of these turn out to be true at the same time

No it’s the ecclesiolocy
