Why does every fucking game have hexagons? The most recent example is Doom, just check out the map screen, it's disgusting.
I'm fucking tired of hexagons

Its an easy way to make things look futuristic.
Just calm your autism
Brayden Flores
too edgy for you?
Thomas Perry
What are some games that do hexagons right?
I think the way the are used for Covenant faction stuff in the halo games is good
Jackson Rodriguez
The honest answer is: It is the strongest most durable shape, all future materials have this for that reason.
Jason Howard
6 is the maximum amount of sides you can give a polygon and still tile it perfectly.
Colton Green
wow bees are posting on Sup Forums now? BEES

Doom always had hexagons tho, so fuck you.
Michael Barnes
Never play super hexagon.
Landon Martinez
that game's for squares

Hexagons are the future

Oliver Foster
It's the strongest shape. It's the shape that has the biggest area while fitting neatly together.
Why do you think bees make their hives out of them?
Connor Powell
OP is right though.
It's a fucking lazy and uncreative way to say "hey, look it's the future". Everyone does it and its getting boring as shit. Either take your time and read a book about futurology and architecture or consult with someone who did or fuck off and don't force your creative bankruptcy on me
Josiah Hernandez
they got high on mescaline and though that shape looked dope.

When fucking shapes start triggering you, that's when you know you've gone off the deep end.
Zachary Collins
I want to ______ those shapes!

fucking shapes REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

FUCKING HEXAGONS REEEEEEEEEEE

So this is gonna be the next meme.
Adrian Long
Hexagonal pattern is structurally strongest, you bloody uneducated shit
Jack Ross
It's so games can use it as a buzzword and appeal to idiots that think they are somehow more tactical or some shit.
Josiah Sanchez
Your are doing it wrong user.
Is the the birth of an new epic meme?
Zachary Clark

Henry Perez
HOLY FUCK someone finally said it
Hexagons are so fucking boring, they always just tessellate the same way, what about some other fucking shapes for once. Look at this fucking shit here, this is just pentagons and already you can do all kinds of variations, imagine if you did other shapes too. Fucking money-grubbing execs with their too-small chimp brains who can't comprehend anything unless it has six sides
Hudson Murphy
DELETE THIS
Leo Nguyen
Hexes are pretty cool though
Joshua Jenkins
I would still rate that less crazy than being aroused by them.

how this happened?
Lincoln Gutierrez
Ask this guy. He seems to be in love.
Leo Rodriguez
because slapping a exagon tiling overlay on generic textures the easiest way to turn a game futuristic
also heard someone say it's easier to render them for some reason but it was on a Sup Forums thread so he was most likely talking out his ass
Adam Cooper
When the majority of people fit into a category you have to consider that the norm, and people outside the category as the strange ones.
Isaac Allen

Oh lordy

Did you know?
The country of France is also called "l'Hexagone", due to its hexagonal shape.

homm3 use hexagons well
Thomas Edwards
ITT we trigger shapesists
Carson Reyes
Bottom right.
Aiden Ramirez

Consolefags, everybody
Aaron Lopez
You can't tile those.
Ayden Roberts
It was supposed to be Italian but then the french bought it or something.
Kinda like Alaska with the US.
Jaxon Nelson
You dun goofed
Justin Rodriguez
planetside 2 had really good use of PBR type of materialization, for example the vanu weapons had the hexagon layer as a seperate layer, meaning that it was more diffuse/specular in the weapon and you could only see it when directly exposed to a light

Because mathematically hexagon is perfect shape for material dispersion. There is a reason why soap bubbles form hexagons, or volcanic crystal, or bees hives etc.

But only if all the material are of a regular size. They form an irregular circle packing when the sizes are unequal.
And in 3d dimensions the shape of soap bubbles and foam is more of a Weire Phelan structure or 3d voronoi.

I am now much more aware of the prominence of the hexagon in gaming. Thanks, OP.

Times have changed.

Un Caliphate de l'Hexagone has a good ring to it.
Adrian Hernandez
Un Caliphate d'Omelette Du Fromage rings even better.
Brody Perez
I just recalled accidentally stumbling upon Sup Forums archives and someone also complaining about hexagons in Ars Nova there.
Blake Jackson
Who said you couldn't learn shit from Sup Forums.
Parker Baker
That sounds fun.
Zachary Nguyen
Would live there. Just no onions please, they make me fart something awful.

They are French if they want it or not. Their whole mentality and attitude is French as fuck.
Jace Butler
Is this... The power of the twenty first century? That I, on acid, could read someone literally thinking that mathematically, six is the highest number of sides polygons can have to tile them evenly, from my phone, in the woods? How the fuck can you possibly have told this many people you can't do basic math and feel alright about it?

Think positive. There isn't a single traffic light in the city! You'll never be stuck in a traffic jam!
Connor Cook
/bees/ bring it back Jap moot
Michael Robinson
How functional is the city?
Also do you have a hexagon-shaped subway system too?
Brayden Diaz
Completely functional. This is the most crowded area in the middle.
>hexagon-shaped subway system
No. It's a mess and I'm ashamed of it. Complete spaghetti. Every time I've tried to restructure it, it worked worse than before.
Lincoln Jenkins
Did someone mention hexagons?
Isaac Lee
Man I can never wrap my head around wargames on PC. I can play board game wargames just fine. On PC they're just too detailed for me.
Colton Kelly
There's a lot of micromanagement, especially in bigger scenarios, I'll give you that.
Brayden Hill

Fix your subway network please.

>Why does every fucking game have hexagons?
Listen, man. Did you know that, like, six is the most common number? Yeah, even more than one... or zero... or seventy-seven. Aaaand, it has a hidden, mysterious meaning... did you know that?
Listen carefully now... Actually, no, don't listen, look around you and tell me what do you see? Actually, don't tell me anything. Listen, because I'll tell you. You see sixes! Everything is in sixes, man!
Look - flies. How many legs do they have? Six! Go to Foundry, look at the ground. You'll see a lot of sixes! Core City, the pavement... Six! Hexagon, city in North Underrail? Six again! Why is the sixth sense so special? Because six is a special number, therefore... six!
James Hernandez
>That fucking held line
They held the line dammit
They held the line!

Hexagons are just an enjoyable pattern to look at.
...just look at those hexagons
Hunter Bennett
>play Wipeout HD
>look at the track in photo mode
>hexagons fucking everywhere
There was even a greenhouse that was made up of big hexagons. The hexagons consisted of smaller hexagons
Carter Wright
Eli Cox
I could go for some cake right about now
Luis Hill
Yes, on a 2d plane using the same sized polygon
Owen Miller
S-sorry. But I'd rather just start a new city. This time with tunneled highways. I wanted to use those anyway but they weren't patched in when I started that city.

I agree with OP. They should really be using Voronoi cell generation with local seed density based on terrain difficulty. Not hard.
