    They must have loved the E3 hype from showing/revealing the game so much, they just want to do that forever.

    At least until the new PS4.5 ships, so they can add VR to entice regular PS4 owners to upgrade.

    I was very interested in this game. A few years ago, lol.

    This will be a "wait and see" for me. I have a feeling it is going to be bug-filled.

    I'll get a first hand look as I pre-ordered it with a gift card.

    I'm getting the game too. Is there anyway our paths will cross in the online universe or are the starting points completely random? If I recall the revs said you could play an entire lifetime and never run into your neighbour. You believe that or is it just a cool sound bite?

    They made it sound like the odds of running into someone is next to impossible.

    Apparently all the world's are just variations of data combinations. Someone explained it on OS. it's procedurally generated.

    There is an article speculating that a potential lawsuit may lead to a(nother) delay for No Man's Sky.


    No Man's Sky has had plenty of problems leading up to its release. The developers had their studio flooded on Christmas Eve of December 2013 (nearly again in January 2014), game was delayed, and then it was revealed that the developers at Hello Games had been having a secret lawsuit over the word 'Sky.'

    According to a report from Telegraaf, a Dutch based company is claiming that Hello Games borrowed their "superformula" that allows the procedurally generated game to generate the world around them. This is despite the fact that the Dutch based company has not seen the games code, they have simply heard about the game.

    "We haven't provided a license to Hello Games", states Jeroen Sparrow from the Dutch based company Genicap, who emphasizes that the licensing system is put in place to protect its customers. "We don't want to stop the launch, but if the formula is used we'll need to have a talk."

    Sean Murray has stated that Hello Games' No Man's Sky is using a "superformula."

    In an interview with Business Insider (via NeoGaf) last year, Murray discussed using a formula from a Belgium-based plant geneticist named Johan Gielis. According to Geilis, his "superformula" was "a modified version of the equation for a circle" that allowed a computer to generate a generous amount of natural shapes (like animals, shells, snowflakes and more).

    Unfortunately, Geilis is a part of the Dutch company - he's the CRO and he has patented the application of the "superformula." Geilis could only patent the application, considering patenting mathematical formulas isn't allowed.

    So a guy on Reddit spends $1300.00 to get the game early.

    If you want to see some early footage, get it before it gets deleted.

    A guy on OS always gets games early and got that copy for $150. Then sold it on eBay for $1250 I thought to the new guy. That is Flightwhite now known as Campmamba24 on OS. I'm sure he will have another copy soon. Never fails.

    Haha, yeah, Flightwhite seems to always have new games a good solid week or more in advance. He's got one hell of a great connection!
