Could work brilliantly on VR although I wouldn't have thought this was the reason for the delay, not like VR or NMS are new things to Sony.

If they wanted this as a launch title for VR then I would have hoped they'd have been smart enough to have considered this earlier and not a month before the game was scheduled for release.

Wouldn't it be better to get the game out in the summer as planned and patch VR support in September? Not sure I'd buy VR initially if all I can play is some tech demos and Battlezone, supporting a number of existing games will definitely help drive sales.
 
The trouble is that procedural generation can leave you cold and unimersed if the changes are just a slightly different shading on planets, animals, etc.

Exploration is fun, but with no story or any real goal, it could get boring fast.

Everyone just quotes Minecraft in these situations, that's not done bad by all accounts... :)

The goal is to get to the centre of the galaxy/universe.

There obviously is a reason otherwise they'd be doing a simultaneous launch as sometimes happens with other games.

My guess would be server load, by staggering they'll be spreading some of the traffic over a few days rather than in one massive hit and then everyone moaning about launch day problems.

I heard somewhere they had over 100k pre-orders, that's fairly substantial for an indie dev. to have the infrastructure to support. Is their tiny team going to be answering ticket support requests 24/7 at launch...

Personally I'm not sure how their system will hold up and think this could be the cause of the delay to August. A proper large scale public beta having taken place would give me confidence they can handle it but the fact they've kept the previous demos so controlled makes me nervous.

TBH youve come over as an idiot with every reply, so I dont think I need to prove anything - why should I explain when seemingly you cant be reasoned with.

Ahhh, I see, name calling because you cannot back it up...

Yes I must be talking rubbish because somehow I have something to gain by giving you knowledge - its why I thinking Im wasting my time, you dont deserve it...

Lol... okay, still seeing nothing that backs your argument up.

If you actually came over as someone that politely wanted to know I actually would have bothered like the countless replies Ive made on other subjects

ps3ud0 :cool:

Politely? After the way you talked to me, bit rich :rolleyes:

And the kicker is, you're wrong, you've nothing to back your argument up with and the release date has now been changed to the same as the rest of Europe, obviously it wasn't that much of a risk was it? So yes, you were talking rubbish.
 
Jesus why do people think stupidity or blind ignorance is a platform to make an argument? Its what I would expect on the playground...

The whole distribution/retail chain in the UK is based around Friday releases. It's possible to release on other days but it requires special arrangement (i.e. additional expense for the publisher).

Really? You offer no evidence of your argument and try to make out I'm the one with blind ignorance or stupidity? You expect me to agree with you based on nothing more than 'i can't be bothered to explain it because you're an idiot' attitude, please, save your time and go away or post something constructive that isn't name calling.

Ohhh look, somebody on the internet agrees with you, perhaps you could post a link so I can actually read the link? But no, all you continue to do is to attempt to solicit a response by being confrontational and continued name calling, don't like being called out on it, don't post it. As for not wasting your time, you certainly seem happy to all the while you you can attempt to call me stupid right?
 
I've known all along why, I merely pointed out that I don't see why it could not change, he failed to provide any good reason or proof as to why and I was justified in the fact that it has been changed, what's embarrassing is watching people attempt to belittle others for no good reason whatsoever. Trump debate? Get over yourself, I asked for proof of why it's a risk, he provided none, end of discussion.
 
I finally broke my normal rule of not pre-ordering any game until reviews are out. I've been waiting for this for 3 years since the first demo's were shown.

I've pre-ordered the PS4 version for the extra ship, credits and theme.

I will probably get the PC version once the Steam sales appear at Christmas for testing in 1440 or even 4k with the settings down
