Game World

Game World

A game world is where the game is set in like the universe for an action game or a stadium for a sports game. It’s an imaginary place in which the events of the game occur. These location can be based on real life areas or it can be made up for the purpose of the game. There are many examples of games that have game world so for example FIFA is based on real life stadium such as Nou camp or the emirates. FIFA uses real life stadium because it will look more realistic as if they are actually playing in the stadium. Or Grand theft auto is based on a fictional City (Los Santos) with Realistic looking building and towers with cars moving just like a normal city. FIFA and Grand theft auto have different game play as FIFA Is based on real life stadium while grand theft auto is based on a fictional city. The game designers must get the game world correct as the game world virtually makes the game itself so having the wrong environment/setting will not look good in the game.                                                                 

Over the years the game graphics has increased dramatically because the new software has been created to be able to make these great graphics. Over the next ten years the graphics will also increase in quality on games. For example the first grand theft auto game released in 1997 was a 2D model with poor graphics while the latest grand theft auto is very different with the game world becoming more lifelike and have realistic setting.

                      Terrain                                                                

Terrain is the surface in which the game world is set in. The terrain can be very different in game depending on their game play. The terrain can be sand to mountains to sea terrain. Having the right kind of terrain is so important so game designers will always make sure that the terrain that the players are on is suitable for the game. The terrain is the surface in which the character can move around on. In some game such as Grand theft auto have many different terrain depending on where you are locating. In grand theft auto the terrain can be set in the city where the terrain is concrete, or the desert where it will have sand terrain. With different terrain grand theft auto is very attracted by gamers because it looks so realistic to real city or countryside. However some games will only have one terrain throughout the game like the game FIFA which is a stadium with a football pitch on the ground. In FIFA you will be only playing in stadium so there is no need to have different terrain unlike grand theft auto.                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Architecture                                                                       

The Architecture is the building, structure and monument which surrounds the game world. The architecture will usually be based on upon on when the game and where it was set in the game. Every game will have different set of architecture depending on the game play. For example grand theft auto the setting is based on real life looking cities, so it will have many skyscraper, big and small building, train station and airport – just like a real life station. They have these architecture because it’s an open game which lets you explore the city and do mission. Game designer will design games with architecture as it allows the game to look more realistic which will make you feel like you’re in the game. By doing this is it will gain more popularity because of the architecture in the game and this will led to more success in the game. Over the years the architecture in game has changed dramatically over the years as graphics have improved allowing game designers to design architecture as they want so it can look more realistic.

Objects in video games are things which enhance the game world in order to make it look more realistic. In every game there will be object that players can use to do things such as Shooting or driving. For example in grand theft auto, objects available are Cars, guns, planes, bikes, helicopter. Players will be able to use these objects to use them within their missions to complete them. Without players you Wouldn't be able to complete them which could make less interesting without any objects that players can use. Video games will usually objects in order to improve the way the games world looks and to also make it look more lifelike. The game designers must always have high quality objects so it can look more realistic and to make it more interesting, so with this it will be more popular because the players will feel as if they are in the game. These objects will allow to help the players complete their missions such as shooting people or robbing a banks. Over the years the objects has improve dramatically since the start of video games.
