No Man's Sky - Procedural space game

Yes RAVE, NEXT is out tomorrow, all leaks so far have come from "Architect"

CaptainRAVE · 23 Jul 2018 at 20:40

Can’t decide whether to continue in galaxy 2 or to start again with all the new changes. Fancy the start again.

Digital X · 23 Jul 2018 at 20:46

That's what I'm doing, I'm expecting a big grin on my face tomorrow too.

Start fresh, only way

I’ve got caught up in the hype and bought it. £22.50 from CDKeys after using their 5% discount code.

I did want to play it when it first came out but the reviews were pretty damning and it turned me off, but by all accounts it sounds like this update will turn the game into something resembling what was promised.

Looking forward to half 8 tomorrow night when I’ll be able to switch it on and give it a whirl for the first time.

Okay same here, I fancied something different so jumped on the hype train.

Loaded it up to check settings and it runs well on my 34" 1440p.

Although, the first planet was a dying radioactive one so I'll re-roll that...

What time does this thing go live in the UK?

Vimes · 24 Jul 2018 at 10:25

AFAIK 2:00pm GMT.

Just got rid of my oldish mods etc from the Atlas rising release.
Will start a new game, probably forgot where I was up to anyway

Hungry Sean!

So it is only 4 person multi player or groups working together? If you can bump into random other people then does being in a group mean much?

Given the size of the galaxy, other than at the centre, I have never come across someone else’s planet. I guess there must be an easy way of finding and getting to people?

Double checked release date/time and for pc it's showing 3-4 pm today rather than 2pm, so not long to go anyway.

Not sure at moment, I would assume there is a way of giving location or providing fast travel abilities for the party of 4 at least? I haven't really played it and have been holding off but tbh it is finally looking like a game I would be interested in.

Going to hold off buying until people start praising/slating it

Kinda regret not getting it for £12 during the GMG birthday sale though

Minusorange · 24 Jul 2018 at 15:36

Nevermind, GMG has it on offer for £16 right now

Digital X · 24 Jul 2018 at 15:45

https://www.greenmangaming.com/games/no-mans-sky/ link for anyone interested. Not sure when it went live.

Reppyboyo · 24 Jul 2018 at 15:49

Is there any consensus so far though?

Muska · 24 Jul 2018 at 15:53

Downloading now. Hoping for 21:9 support.

Will report back.

**EDIT**

Doesn't look like the new patch has dropped yet.

VermilionChaos · 24 Jul 2018 at 15:54

A few of us just started this up again with the new update dropping, quite looking forward to the idea of joining a host for actual MP

@Mynight do you think we could get a NMS channel in the discord?
