People have too much time on their hands. Remember that movie, Event Horizon?

Sorry, I missed what you were saying. I was too busy enjoying my free healthcare and safe clean air.

Well it looks like No Man's Sky has been officially preloaded. My son is on the PS4 and the first tile is No Man's Sky. The countdown is on.

I have it pre ordered from Eb games as well. Picking it up Tuesday at lunch. I may even give this game a shot.
I think it will sell very well and get metacritic scores in the 70s. The potential to be repetitive and boring worries me. Hopefully they keep patching things.
Shipping confirmation from Amazon!

This patch is now live on PlayStation 4. It is 824 MB.
Wonder if that means a species could become extinct.Quote:
planets have a wider diversity of creatures, and those creatures now have a diet, where proper feeding enables their assistance.
I'm jealous. I can't wait to hear you guys' opinions. I love the wonders of outer space.
Like I said in an earlier post... this was the game I dreamed of as a kid. Exploring a "real" universe the way I want to do it.Quote:

To be super clear - No Man's Sky is not a multiplayer game. Please don't go in looking for that experience.
That totally works for meQuote:

I'll be looking for impressions for you guys too. I'm super interested but I'm skeptical enough not to pull the trigger yet.
Yes they are named and only the person who discovers the planet first can rename them. If you do come across a planet that has been discovered by another player it will show the username that discovered it and go by the name they gave to it, assuming they renamed it.Quote:

Will there be pictures of socks on the planet surface included?Quote:

The first real review is up, albeit from Business Insider...
It's go time! Impressions to follow shortly boys.
So it all started on Buyamamano Erch... Which I quickly renamed to Jaymo Prime. The system... Upends uses XV... You are now Hilcrest Rift.
Well I put in close to 6 hours tonight. I was streaming for Steeler and a few others until about 2 hours in when I lost my internet connection. However, that didn't stop me. In my time I have explored three planets and one space station. I have just assembled my hyper drive so I can start some big jumps soon. This game is a lot of fun and I am really enjoying it. It's definitely not a play everyday type of game and the exploration can become rather tedious. However, right now I am having a blast. This game isn't for everyone. I think you will either love it or hate it. If you don't like exploring and hours of going around in circles, then stay away. This game is not meant to be played quickly. The key is taking your time to fully explore each and every world as you journey through the stars.
I am most enjoying cataloging new species. Most I keep the game name. However, some I cannot help myself. For example, I was killed by a vicious predator that frankly looked like a beaver. Hence, I named the species Beavus Chompus in his honour. I also have a dead, deserted miserable chunk of rock planet... Rams Planet.
Pros:
-the concept of the game
-visuals~ some planets are amazing!
-sounds
-cataloging flora and fauna
-discovering and naming planets
-crafting new gear/items
-simplified trade
-biggest game map EVER! (the star field is phenomenal!!!)
Cons:
-no dialogue
-repetitive nature of destroying things to gain resources
-all planets have some type of life/sentries/bases
-no ship colour customization
I will discuss it more tomorrow. I need to go to bed. I'm exhausted!
Thanks for posting your impressions, jaymo. I enjoyed watching until you lost connection.
I'm still not certain that this game is for me but I'll probably end up buying it anyway for my daughter. I don't see her again until the 17th so there's not a big rush for me to get it. Unless, something game-breaking crops up between now and the 16th, I'll probably buy it then so it will be installed before she comes to my house.
Delivered :)) I'm off at 12:30 central and gonna get something to eat and get this bad boy installed and start streaming.

I tried to share play with you but my internet wasn't strong enough which is strange because it's a solid connection. If u want I can party chat with you tonight or at some point later on.Quote:

The 4th planet in my system.... Absolutely stunning! Blue and red pastels as a backdrop for a forest/water world. Going underwater is beautiful. I also discovered a Star Wars like creature... It's a ram head on a goat body with tiny wings. Awesome!
Daughter will be playing this soon. I am interested as well.
The key to appreciating this game is simply taking time to explore. If you race from planet to planet I think you miss out on the games intent (IMO).Quote:

Game is interesting but buggy. Two freezes in less than an hour. My daughter had to travel forever for this stuff to fix her engine. Finally gets it, mines it and then freeze. Stuff is lost. There is only one save slot and you don't even control it! It's autosave only at certain points making this worse. The lack of control over saves is dumb.

Welcome to Jaymo76 Prime!
Really? I haven't had any bugs or crashes as of yet. Fingers crossed it was just a one time thing for you.Quote:
