No Mans Sky, explore 16 quintillion planets! Release date, August 2016

some of y’all are bad as po

I’m confused on what was said in the build up and what was revealed that leaves much to be desired. What did they lie about? That you could take 100 hours to reach the center of the galaxy?

He doesn’t know. All he knows is it’s not for him therefor somehow the developers were lying somehow or something. You know, text book dumb ass SRK shit.

From what I’ve read and what I’ve seen, it’s starting to look like you may be right. I’ve read some threads on Reddit and people’s expectations are extremely high. The patch seems to fix more bugs/exploits than anything. I’ve tempered my expectations a bit so that I don’t get hit with a huge letdown.

I don’t really care about this game, since I’m not a fan of space shooters anyways, but the “quintillion planets” selling point pissed me off since day one.

Randomly generated environment should not be a selling point. The Diablo series had randomly generated dungeons 20 years ago and nobody gave a shit. I don’t know why people tripping over that shit. All it tells me is that instead of getting depth and a carefully planned galaxy, were getting shallow, formula generated, environments. Yes, none will look the same, but at the same time, none will leave an impression and the novelty will leave after the first experience.

Anyways, for those who have been waiting like crazy for this game, hope it’s good and you get your money’s worth.

guess I dont need to read the rest

Saved me 9 seconds.

Got my Amazon charge for the limited edition. That wait tomorrow is going to be hell on earth.

Not sure if he was serious, but Sean Murray said base building would be in the next update on stream. Pretty sure he was joking but you never know with him

This is a good example of why people shouldn’t speak on this game before they research it. This specifically, has already been shown to not be true. There’s already dozens of hours of gameplay (not to mention any one of the trailers or gameplay Hello Games did) that show varied and interesting terrain.

You shouldn’t have read my post, as I don’t care about the game.

So I’ve got a Win10 64bit AMD Phenom II X4 3.2Ghz, 12gig ram with an old ass Radeon HD 4800 graphics card. Brilliant for mame emulators but what are my chances of me having fun playing this game on my system?

Watch their Twitch stream, it gives a really good sense of what you’ll be doing.

hopefully i have it tomorrow. amazon not telling me its shipped yet… ninja edit… just got the shipping confirm as I type this LOL :cool:

This is…amazing. Nothing, not even 3 years of hype and watching leaked gameplay could have prepared me for this. This…is something else.

That is all.

does this game require decent internet to play? the only available internet in my area is abysmal for online gaming.

Out for delivery!!!

That’s a good question actually. I know all the planets are server side but uses math to create them. So the back and forth may not be as persistent constantly as say an online fighter. Best bet would be to wait a few days and see what folks on the internet say.

I thought they said you could play offline

Yes, they did

I fucking hate Amazon today
