Why does every fucking game have hexagons? The most recent example is Doom, just check out the map screen, it's disgusting.
hey tile guy
heard u talkin shit

>I'm mad at shapes
Its an easy way to make things look futuristic.
Just calm your autism
too edgy for you?
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
>>337558496
The honest answer is: It is the strongest most durable shape, all future materials have this for that reason.
6 is the maximum amount of sides you can give a polygon and still tile it perfectly.

Doom always had hexagons tho, so fuck you.

Never play super hexagon.

that game's for squares

Hexagons are the future
>>337558685
>I'm mad at shapes
Post >yfw blizzard launches a hexagon server instead of vanilla
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?
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

Fuck right off
FUCKING HEXAGONS REEEEEEEEEEE
So this is gonna be the next meme.
>>337558496
Hexagonal pattern is structurally strongest, you bloody uneducated shit
It's so games can use it as a buzzword and appeal to idiots that think they are somehow more tactical or some shit.
>>337560112
Your are doing it wrong anon.
Is the the birth of an new epic meme?
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
>>337560276

Hexes are pretty cool though
>>337559339
I would still rate that less crazy than being aroused by them.

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 /v/ thread so he was most likely talking out his ass

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.

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

You can't tile those.

It was supposed to be Italian but then the french bought it or something.
Kinda like Alaska with the US.
>>337560882
You dun goofed
>>337558496
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.

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?

Completely functional. This is the most crowded area in the middle.

>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!

Hexagons are just an enjoyable pattern to look at.

There was even a greenhouse that was made up of big hexagons. The hexagons consisted of smaller hexagons

I know, I was making a halfassed attempt to propel the thread to meme status. I guess it's familiar enough that it's not TOO autistic.Do you know any strategy games that use uncommon board patterns like this? I was kind of pondering about it after the Civ VI crap that's been going down the past couple days
