Awesome explosion demonstration in Stargate Worlds


Recommended Posts

This video shows an Goa'uld Ha'Tak mother ship exploding in a low orbit. It's only about 30 seconds long, but my lord does it look AMAZING. Apparently it's part of an event in game, so I must admit if that's what the events are gonna be like in game that we can take part in, I'm on this like donkey kong.

Ha'Tak blowing up real good

Hope you like it :)

The initial explosion didnt look that good to me, sorry. It looked kinda blocky.... however once it got going the falling debris did look rather cool.

Is SGW a MMORPG then? I been living under a rock, and last time i heard about a Stargate game it was just rumour XD

The game is looking extremly good at the moment, which has surprised me. Expected the usual from a 'game based on a movie/tv series'.. It seems the game isnt even finished yet and they are working on in-game events.. which is a huge plus, considering many MMO developers dont bother with massive in-game events (due to them only lasting once, so its a waste of money but huge enjoyment for the players).

I dunno, the initial explosion looked pretty sweet to me. Looks like plasma or something explodes, which is a nice touch. But yes, the blast wave and debris etc are just awesome looking. And the actual sound...shudder.

WOW.. The sound was awesome.. The explosion was very well done.. I think the biggest thing is, we didn't get to see the event's leading up to the actual explosion so it looks rushed.. But the heat and stuff dissipating was awesome looking.. This game actually looks pretty good although I have never kept up with stargate.

I just wonder what kind of battle was going on before the ship exploded. It looked like energy based weapons were being fired, maybe Asgard? Possibly a new race just for the game I suppose.

They probably wont be implementing new races (or not technologically advanced) in right away, rather they'll just skew the Stargate storyline to make it more exciting. Rather than just continuing from the already finished/closed SG1 Storyline.

The game better be a whole lot better than what those guys where playing in that tv show or movie (don't remember) :)

Eh, I don't know what you are referring to, at all lol

im still hoping for a c.beta invite

You and me both man. I would kill for an invite to this puppy. And Star Trek Online :D

Wow, that was amazing. The initial shockwave did look somewhat blocky but after that... wow. It was superb. And the sound... I've never heard such a powerful explosion sound in a game. It sounded like a nuclear bomb went off or something.

I applied for the beta but I haven't received an invitation yet. :(

Eh, I don't know what you are referring to, at all lol

There was an episode in a tv series this spring or something (could have been a movie but I think it was a tv series) where some guys where playing Stargat worlds in some scenes. What they where playing was horrible though :)

You and me both man. I would kill for an invite to this puppy. And Star Trek Online :D

+1, but star trek online isn't going to go into beta for a LONG time imo..... but yeah i really want play both games even though i set my expectations for all mmos really low.

STO will probably hit beta sometime in Q1 2009, so it isn't that far away really. But this video for Worlds got me stoked for the game now, as a long time Stargate SG-1 fan I get giddy thinking about even the most basic stuff we might get to do in the game :D

The explosion looked pretty good. I agree that if they delayed the sound so that it came after the explosion it would have made it much more than it was. The game looks ok so far, I'm always skeptical of movie/tv-to-game adaptations. This one especially since SG-1 is one of my favorite shows of all time. Lets hope the game is decent. (Y)

I just wonder what kind of battle was going on before the ship exploded. It looked like energy based weapons were being fired, maybe Asgard? Possibly a new race just for the game I suppose.

COME OOOOOOOON FURLINGS!

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
