Ah cheers, good to know.

Just picked this up cheap so what's the best way to control this game? Keyboard and mouse, joystick or controller? Controller is the one thing I don't have although I can soon buy one and I presume the Xbox one for PC's is the best one to get?

It’s absolutely the answers you'd expect; m&kb for the on-foot stuff, controller for the flying - albeit you can get by with m&kb for everything.

However this game offers an incredibly immersive VR experience to boot - albeit it’s not roomscale.

All of those updates, and still haven't provided HOTAS support. Pah.

As in not all of the functions work or it doesn't work at all? My joystick is a Thrustmaster T-flight Hotas 4.

From what I've read, there's no "out of the box" support in game for HOTAS. There's supposedly a workaround using Steam.
Amazing that the developers have ignored it, as they appear to have done a brill job elsewhere.

I've read on Reddit that it's a question of whether to make 50 people happy, or 50,000 people happy.

A fair question. What did the poll say?

I went back to playing this last week, and have slowly done the base computer quests, but was wondering whats happened to building the different stations, like weapons, and science and the farmer ect?

Loved this game but I usually game with 4 friends and even though there's a mod to allow 5 in a group. The 5th player don't get updates on missions etc. Pity.

Just fired this up again after quite some time away and I'm bloody lost as to what I'm doing. Guess I'll be starting a new play through.

Currently downloading the Echoes update. Looking forward to sweeping down the trenches ala Star Wars Death Star style .

Something to play while waiting for Starfield.

I saw this trailer and am very tempted to play this, but dont want to play this and then find myself burnt out on Space games by the time Starfield comes out.

Starfield is out next week so just wait for that.

Wrong time for nms to release a new patch.

They are not the same so why would you be burnt out.

Just wish that each update did not kill mods. Normally wait 2 weeks so that mod authors can update their work before playing.

Feel for the modders, some, like L02k do phenomenally well in keeping up with their mods. L02k even having a mod status page on Nexus.

But yes, it takes some time for the mods to be updated, if that happens. Then I spend quite a while combining some of them as needed, when I remember how to do it, lol.

They are not really the same gameplay wise, but thematically they are very similar.
