Global Conflict

So i stumbled on this from reddit. the idea seems very interesting and i would love to see if and how this would develop.

basically its a "game" that will simulate the development of civilization. the video will do a better job at describing it for me.

I've always wanted to see a game like this come to fruit... Granted, I'm a little skeptical of course, but I'd like to see what they can do.

Imagine something like this in a zombie apocalyptic setting.

thats why i love this idea. from the sound of it its the ultimate sandbox game. everything is brought about by the players in a (almost) living world. you could be the one to start the zombie apocalypse!

wow, I certainly want to be updated on this one!

Feels like Minecraft, but a more sophisticated.

I'm a little sceptical. Sounds too much like a second job to me.

Haha. You mean a third job? I'm assuming that consistently being a TA and General must feel like a second at times...

On topic, this looks REALLY cool - it's a pity there's not more details on it.
