Being a veteran of this game, and a founder of worlds adrift, I couldn't stop crying during the final event that shut down the game... that sky whale was amazing, so I really hope that voids adrift is enough to get bossa to bring Worlds Adrift back...

I hope so too. Almost had a few of my own created islands placed into the game. One of which I think did make the cut but might have been a little...complex to be implemented at the time. If you search up Worlds Adrift - Islands Spotlight - April 2017 and look for the thumbnail that has the cracked head my island is the last one that be shown. Had a few more that didn't get as many views

What killed this game was a company unwilling to support the dev team that was actually pretty dedicated to it. The game was incredibly fun, and the playerbase was fantastic. There was some talk from the devteam about making it open source so people could either run servers, or the community could try and get a pseudo-official server back up, but Bossa was unwilling to let the IP go even though they were doing nothing with it. Honestly the whole shutdown process was a huge mess. Originally there was going to be no sort of compensation. For early backers (such as myself), who had dropped 60+ USD on the game, it was absurd. What we got in return was copies of their other, totally mediocre and disinteresting games. Obviously a refund would have been absurd, but I'd MUCH rather have gotten a release of the sourcecode (even if it came with 0 support).

It wasn't even bossa's fault. They were trapped. They had used the SpatialOS for the game and infrastructure and the licensing made it impossible for them to release it to publicly use, the company behind the SpatialOS killed it and bossa couldn't do anything about it. Now though they have a team reviving the game in the unity game engine, Lost Skies. Same setting and feel just different story and its player hosted coop instead of mmo. It'll become what WA couldn't.

One thing he didnt mention was that the game looked like a super cute exploration game, but under the hood it was a super brutal, full-loot pvp game without ANY safe zones. THIS was an aspect that pissed many players off that came to the game, lured by those cuddly graphics, building for hours on their first ship and then get sunk by a bunch of T4 pirates - only to find out that EVERYTHING was gone and they had to start over again. I fell in love with this game just because of that. I am normally not a hardcore pvp player - but this world and its persistency and not having instances, was just absolutely great. It forced you to THINK and learn the whole geography of the world, making safe and hidden caches etc. My god I miss this game so much!

Maybe they should have made some T1 zones as safe zones for new players to learn the game in peace. But that should have been the maximum. They marketed the game to the wrong audience, who then ended as cannon fodders for the trigger-happy pvp folks.

@@jean-lucpicard581 Well there were people happy to _pay_ to just explore and build ships (and not lose progress). Since they closed down because they didn't have enough players ( enough money ) I would say they should have done the PVE server a lot earlier, and retain more people. I don't understand why PVP folks get always so upset about PVE servers. If you want a challenging and interesting combat it doesn't make sense to play with people that are not interested in combat. If you want people to slaughter and gank then that's the only explanation I can see for not wanting a PVE server. My 2c.

@@sondrestrand1338 Agreed, my crew and I (about 12 of us) built a few well, call them battle cruisers for relatively fast but armored battle(40-45 speed max, could be run and fought with 1-2 ppl) and one slow but heavily armored battleship(about 25-30 max speed and needed at least 5 to operate and fight effectively) that we go out and have fun with gathering resources, blueprints, knowledge, and go pirate hunting. Many a time other players would fire at us thinking we were pirates, but most would cease when we shouted a warning at them to stop firing, though there were a few that did not listen and were sunk to the depths. We met many a player building/rebuilding a new ship and gave them some of our extra materials to both help them out with the gathering grind, and free up our storage for better materials (we'd often be giving them T5-6 materials or better). Those were the days, and I miss them so. These past two years would have been so much better even just taking a simple sail ship on a voyage between the T1 islands and just looked around at the skies while doing so. :(

If I ever get rich Im buying the rights to this game. It was plagued by Pirates tho which was a lot of fun but could be annoying. Really really good roleplaying too. Best times Ive ever had in a video game since. Meeting a stranger on an island was always an experience whether they were hostile or not. A guy role playing as Santa Clause saved me a and friend I met from our ship getting stolen by distracting the pirates. I almost cried because of how genuine the interactions were. Santa even built a tiny ship that looked like a sleigh. This game had more potential than any other on the market.

I was the guy who built a big ship full of box that were in turn full of resources and I'd travel from island to island trading them. Only had 2 instances of pirates luckily but they were the most intense nail bitting experiences of my life. My most proud moment was killing a pair of pirates that managed to grapple to my vessel while their buddy rushed back to their ship to give chase. I set the shit to full speed away, and shot one. The other grappled to my mast and was repeatedly killing me as he spun around and around, but since my respanw pad was still around I managed to respawn, find an atlas shard in my mess of shit and then shoved it into my generator and set the guy soaring into the abyss. Their ship gave chase and I turned to a storm wall and shot at them as I stuggled to keep my ship on course. Then by the grace of Thor a bolt of lightning struck them and killed most of their engines allowing me to outrun them as they were left struggling to repair. Though my favorite was the ship building, expirimenting with different designs and stuff. Met a guy who had a Tiefighter, another who had a ship shaped like an arrow with sails as the fletching. Must have dumped days into making all kinds of weird stuff. Man I'll miss that game something fierce

It was such a unique experience and I can say it was by far my favorite game of all time. I went from discovering the game by chance when I was looking for a new mmo back in 2015, played closed alpha and did some mild streaming there, got into a group with the idea of being the bad guys later on in EA, learned what large scale fleet battles were about, and had the time of my life sailing the skies in a Shark Boat.

What sucks is that if this game released today with a simple 4-player co-op mode rather than an mmo style set-up and with some more enemies to fight, it'd be successful. Reading comments on the steam page for the island creator, seeing how much games like Raft have taken off after it's 1.0 update dropped, Grounded right around the corner. This game would blow up today.

I played it during it's hayday. It was fun, but then you ran out of things to do quickly. It was cool running into other players and bypassing the storm walls though.... Truly unique game that needed more content. Grappling hook was physics and momentum based, to the point where you could fly a great distance. Ship making was a little jank, but damn could you make cool stuff. Crew and I made battle ships that were tactically able to stand against things i would only begin to describe as interstellar rockets. You could board ships and take out respawn pads, and take someone's ship and loot them. Sad the game died, but it was quick to see everything.

i remember being so hyped during the pre release, A classmate told me about this upcomming game. just made a clan and fucked around on the forums. Once the island creator finally released i jumped into that day one. Most islands were pretty shit back then so my creation reached the top page for a while. Me and some other guy also figured out how to share assets between our island creators, i remember making a thread about that on the forums lmao. Back then we were the first to find out how to do that. Stuff felt cool as hell.Its super cool when you feel like you can contribute to the game you enjoy. I think some people started sharing custom groups as assets after that. They might have added it as a supported functionality after i quit the game but idk. Last time i played it was 2016. ended up never buying the game because during the alpha i realized that the gameplay was not really there. It seemed like the game was so far away from having fun gameplay. also my pc couldnt handle the alpha at all. and I started college the next year :(. 4-8 hours of math homework each day after school really messed with my gaming time.

I am an island creator for the game, I've made 5 islands in total and 4 of them got into the game, the reason was one of them was lagging the server. It was so nice to be able to bring such awe-inspiring islands to the players, it's such a memorable experience. Although some hated them for being so huge, at least players were able to gather together and hosted a farewell party for the game and took a screenshot with the word "BYE" on a floating board.

Watched it again and damn. No videos or explanations can truly give this game justice. It's a mmo in it's truest form. All islands are real people's ideas. Hand crafted. All people you meet in game. Real people. You can walk up to someone and talk to them through local proximity chat. Animals. Although not optimized and dream forgotten for performance reasons. Were meant to be functioning ecosystems with feeding, aging, and breeding. You used to be able to. With a extreme amount of dedication. Clear multiple islands or maybe even an entire zone from a species for awhile. The community in this game was absolutely amazing. The developers offered no cheat sheet. People independently studied a materiels properties and how they effected different ship components very precisely. To the point where they can calculate the results of certain items before a ship was even built. Every dedicated player knew the basics of these sheets by heart. Like how to get the best lift out of a sky core. And all of them kept the links and cheat sheets. Then there was the islands and zones. There were a number of community made maps dispersed throughout the game community through steam, discord, and most amazingly; word of mouth from the people you'd meet working on their ships in game. Seeing it was such an amazing vibe. Once each wipes map was mapped. There were very clear hit spots discovered. Some servers had their own trading outposts where people liked to essentially set up shop. Some places were very common spots to simply hang out. People would bring pub inspired ships. Or giant ships with logos or that are essentially flying homes to events. I'm getting off topic. But experiences like that makes it feel a lot more than just a game. The world had worth. The world lead to so many memories and friendships. Each player and ship had a story. Each person you interacted with positive or negatively. Had a really real effect on people. It certainly gets it's tile for being a mmo. Likely the best one I'll ever play. If you're looking for similar vibes. My current suggestion is the game called Starbase. Almost completely different theme. But has some similarities in terms of being a social massively multiplayer game with a huge scale. Beautiful scenery. Amazing soundtrack that fits perfectly. Ship building. And a similar very respectful progression grind. That's completely different then most mmos.

Oh my goodness, now I want the game back even more! Thanks Aci, now I'm sad! No seriously, thanks, I think I needed to be reminded of the game and the fond memories I have of it! Worlds Adrift actually was what I imagine to be the perfect game, despite my internet not allowing serious Worlds Adrift gameplay. For me if a game has clunky or janky movement, the entire game would feel terrible, but the movement in Worlds Adrift felt good, it felt natural! The sense of scale was also incredible, just by standing in awe of the size of a storm wall! The community was also great, and I think it might have been better than Deep Rock Galactic's current community, which is saying a lot! Two people (Bliznarn and Cakey were their usernames!) gave me a glider at my starting island! Someone gave me a ride to a larger island! Someone helped me build a ship for 30 to 40 minutes! I was one of the many people who purchased the Captain's Founder's Pack, and I honestly don't regret purchasing it. Of course I did flaunt the exclusive sail, flag, scarf, and such whenever possible! My name is actually in the "Founding Captains" part of the website! Not trying to toot my own horn, though. I think I might have even met IGP in-game! I can't prove it as it wasn't something he recorded and I didn't get a screenshot, but I swear I did! One of my fondest memories is when two people hijacked my ship, and while the ship really had nothing of value and was ugly, it still mattered to me! Honestly the combat was fantastic, even though there was only one hand-held weapon. (not counting time bombs) I feel like I would have enjoyed the game a lot more at my current age compared to how I was 2 years ago.

Very happy to see some appreciate for this jewel of a game. I played quite a lot of Worlds Adrift, my main account was over 2500 hours and I had 6 accounts total. It was useful to be able to 'store' multiple ships and loot and I felt happy about supporting the project. I will always remember my boys in the Beaver Dam. Obviously a project bleeding money like would be a driving factor in it being shut down. However I do think there were some things about what led to it shut down that are worth mentioning. WA was an in-developement game being built on an in-developement engine, it started out well but over time performance got worse and worse and i do believe the is the main reason it failed to gain traction. The game was not able to be moved to later versions of the engine without massive amounts of work. Although the game was losing money it was imperative to get the game running smoothly before they could truly advertise and populate the worlds beyond its small but enamored community. After the 4th major update performance took a critical hit and did not improve. Near the end any sort of combat between two ships led to unplayable lag, but in the beginning we had massive multi-ship battles with, compared to the 'end days', really had minimal issues.

Loved the game, put 700+ hours into it. I can tell you, so many of the thumbs down that happened was purely because of the griefing. So many people much like I did, joined the game and right after spawning spent the next several hours of game play getting blown up. Initially they told everyone the game was about pirating. Except that's not what was happening. They didn't want your resources, they just wanted to blow up your dingy that didn't even have storage on it. Everyone was scared to make friends in game because people would act friendly then dismantle your atlas core while you're flying between islands and there goes your ship. It got so bad that they released a video trying to explain to people the difference between griefing and PVP. However at that point the game's already lost. People had been begging for a PVE server, or at least make tier 1 maybe even tier 2 zones PVP free so people could at least learn the game and get off the ground. They eventually did it but that was basically when the game was 6 months from closing down. The PVP servers were barren, I was on the PVE server and I can say it was the best time I had in the entire game. I could explore, work on my ship, go through obstacle courses with hazards and turrets. And any time I actually wanted to do PVP, there was the tier four zone I could go to. They brought in so many people that were dazzled by the ship building, island building, exploration... They were open to PVP but were chased away by the griefing. Bossa didn't take those people seriously enough and that's what did the game in. They were chased off, and others discouraged from joining.

I miss this game so much, the only other game that scratched the itch a bit was Sea of Thieves, but even that hasn't come close to satisfying the need Worlds Adrift used to satisfy. I love the MMO aspect but the gameplay was so fun I wish they had worked on a singleplayer survival kind of thing, just so that we could still play the damn game.

I remember the hype for this game when it first entered early access; so disappointed that it never took off, it had such crazy potential especially with the mechanic of upgrading your ship. I would be obsessing over this game if they actually went through with it, hopefully someone can rework the idea into something truly spectacular in the future. I seriously think this could have been as big as minecraft with enough content; so sad they had to shut it down in its infancy.

I saw a ton of videos about building ships, exploring, cool air battles... But actually it was logging in, people following you until you have a lot of resources, kill you and rob everything. After several attempts I managed to survive and build a ship. But air battles were several people hooking stealthy onto your ship, dismantling your respawn point and kill you. It was a paradise for ganking, grief and noob bashing. There wasn't a day going by new players addressing this issue and all they heard it's supposed to be like that. Suprise the game died out. New players didn't enjoy it, because it was nothing like the videos with building, exploration and ships shooting each other. It was teams shooting you as soon as you got near an island and steal your stuff and ship. With nobody to harass the older players also died out.

The main reason we didn't manage to get access to host our own servers was due to the propriety server engine and physics engine they were using. The community even offered to help fixes some of the bugs for free but that was a no-go due to Bossa having to release their source code and in-game Dev that is a no-no if you don't want another game company to try and outflank you with it.

We cover all our window even at the cockpit room and left only one window for me which I am the pilot and I can only watch at compass height level and only front window.

The video missed two critical points. The first is that there were guilds, and they were very active. The other issue is the real reason why they were bogged down with tech issues. WA used a physics sim to track ALL movement in the game. ALL OF IT. ALL OF THE TIME. It was extremely resource heavy, and Bossa didn't develop the server tech; they leased/rented it. Every time the server service changed, it would break Worlds Adrift. They took a shortcut, and this left them at the mercy of another party.

I always had my eyes on this game, but never tried it due to reviews that wrote that there was serious pirate clan problems, and I usually enjoy solo gameplay styles I knew I would not stand a chance. Regardless, the world, style and feel of the game that I saw in videos kept bringing my attention back to it. When I finally got around to wanting to try the game, it wad no longer there. I never thought such a game would cease to exist, just seemed to unique for that to happen. I really hope it can be resurrected, so many, limitless possibilities to bring this game towards.

I wonder how Voids Adrift will perform since this video is 3 years old and you can't really see much on steam today.

Surprised you didn’t touch on it at all, but the divided community might have had something to do with it. The game was originally marketed as an exploration, adventure, RPG type game (and the reason I purchased it) but further into the development devolved into a PvP, pirates free for all battle royal. To me it seems whenever a game introduces PvP a very toxic element can be introduced to the environment and sadly, that happened here. With no limits to certain areas, veterans could just waltz into a newbie’s spawn and camp them until they changed islands or servers (which sadly happened on my first play session and reeeally turned me off from the game). And yet, the option for private or PvE only servers was debated and danced around, with Team PvP complaining and tossing around statements like “if you don’t like the game/don’t have time for the game, don’t play the game.” (As if that is a viable option for someone who just dropped a minimum of $30 on the game.) I really think having the option to play on private servers or PvE only servers would have drawn back people like me, who hate forced PvP, especially when hardly grasping the basics of the game. Either that, or limiting who could enter newbie spawn areas. Not everyone has unlimited free time to learn the ropes, and getting spawn camped and ganked in the back is exactly the reason why I quit and never looked back. From a distance it seemed like a great game, but if you weren’t in a clan or “crew”…you were pretty much a dead man.
