Re: No Man's Sky

Got into my first non one on one space battle today. It didn't turn out well for the home team...

Re: No Man's Sky

I saw you fire at that ship with the big ship behind it and knew that was a big mistake. Also, careful if the space station is close during a fight, shooting one will send out sentinel ships.

No Man's Sky

IGN's review in progress says if they had to score it now it would be a 6. Since when do they pull the if I had to score it now card out of their ***?

Gamespots review seemed very unbiased and seemed like the reviewer had an open mind. The guy doing the IGN review in progress thing has been negative since his first paragraph. After reading it I'm surprised he even gave it a 6.

I get the game isn't for everyone but I would have liked to see IGN have someone review it who at least had more of an open mind. Seems like the guy wasn't gonna like it from the start.

I don't really care what the guy thinks to be honest. I just feel like he was overly negative and seemed to have some sort of bias from the way his pieces read.

To me, this is one of my favorite games I've ever played. I'd still give it an 8 though. I guess this is just truly a love it or hate it game.

Re: No Man's Sky

Tryed this game for a little bit, I don't get that lost in space feel at all with drones, bases, cargo to collect on every planets. Doesn't make sense.

Sean did not lie, he just sidestepped some of the questions.

Re: No Man's Sky

Really Razor? You're going to complain about this? I know you're a big fan of Street Fighter 5 because I read your posts here. Capcom was heavily criticized for its lack of content and characters, as well as its technical issues such as servers and bugs during launch. I mean Yoshinori Ono issued an apology because of all its launch problems. What's funny is I consider those over the top fighting games repetitious. LOL.... Anyways, I digress.





I'm still in my rust bucket. Just got done playing. What's amazing is hours go by and you don't even realize how much time went by. Oh, stay away from the planet Suoyabrs Drai. What a POS planet that was. I left so fast, I didn't even bother to rename it.

Spoiler

Soon as you exit your ship, you're swarmed by beetles.

So you know how i criticized Capcom and you also know I've almost dropped the game twice (i didn't even renewed my ps plus subscription since SFV was the only game i played online, and since they released the last update, i just unlocked Juri's trials and abandoned the game). I really have a problem with Capcom, especially because they weren't really honest when it comes to dlc stuff.

Re: No Man's Sky

I've had plenty of animals attack me, but they were all simple attacks and not much of a threat (realistically I guess, I am in a shielded enviro suit armed with a gun). The sentinels are the real threat, I've yet to see the tier 5 sentinel, but the tier 4 are something.


Following the Atlas path, really enjoying the story more than anything else, up to probably 300 words by now with a pretty good handle on the Gek and Vy'keen stories, just cracking into the Korvax.

Same here. I am on the Atlas path and got to my first....Atlas Temple/Station/Structure. It's been a cool ride thus far. Still no Atlas Pass though. I want to know how I obtain one. So many unexplored rooms on the outposts/stations on planets.

But 300 worlds already? Holy **** man.....do you sleep or eat?

Re: No Man's Sky

Can the people who don't like the game please just go away. Tired of reading your complaints about what the game isn't.

You told us. Thanks. Now bye.

Nah he doesn't sleep or eat he's part of the Gek race now man.

He's an advanced life form.

Words man's, 300 words...

So this Atlas path people speak of. Is that just the gold path laid out on the Star map? What about this Nana and Polo(sp?) I saw mentioned once in the game. Is that some kind of other path to take?

I feel like I jumped ahead of the game a little. I was really lost without direction. Finally, luckily, found my way back to my home planet and there were some places that the game revealed to me on the other side of the planet. One being a manufacturing facility which gave me a blueprint for something I had just been buying before to complete warp cores. I guess I did leave some things behind and maybe I'm on the path now.

It cool if they wanna come in and say their part. We get it, believe us, this game isn't for everyone at all. The thread turning into pages of long posts trying to convince us to not like the game and how we were lied to that starts to get annoying.

Lots of us do like it obviously and want to share and discuss that. Stop trying to piss on our fire and go find something enjoyable to be happy about.

Re: No Man's Sky

You asked him to provide a quote where it was said it would be co-op and were provided with one.

You are correct, I should have been more clear. What I was looking for, was them detailing anything about 'coop' or even 'multiplayer' in general, outside of that one quote.

Only things I seen were vague remarks on how Journey is or LOST with Jack's Dad or the like, where you may randomly see someone out of the corner of your eye type event. So it would be very rare, but you can't 'force the system' so to speak.

I have been following this game for 3 years, and never once expected or assume 'coop play', regardless of that one old interview quote. They have been adamant ever since it was not that type of game.

I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt at the moment, and either the system was not in place in time, or bugged the hell out because were can barely stay connected enough as it is. But I also do not believe they designed it where you can coordinate it, more so a system of checks to randomly have it happen.

Hopefully he clears this up by Monday or in future interviews that will be happening, that way it can be put to rest.

On a side note, I do not even think there is a player model in the game yet. You have no shadow, you can't see your feet, and the FOV is set in such a way where you do not see your hand, and sometimes the multitool on reloads show no hand on the grip. So the player models might not be in yet, or they wanted to rework them. The PC gamers will have to let us know with digging into the game.

Post Review in Progress:

If I had to rate this post right now, I would rate it a 9.3.

Spoiler

Hint: They started it with Battleborn, just before Uncharted 4 (ironically, hmm), then hung out an 8.8 (in progress number), lol (people went nuts, shocker), for it... before finally settling on a 9 like I knew they would. A new method for them clicks .

Re: No Man's Sky

So I got it last night about 35 minutes after my post?

I told the wife I'd play for an hour, and then I'd be done until she went to bed...well turns out it's exactly the game I have always wanted, and that she has as well (she's not a gamer at all). We ended up spending seven hours on the dang thing, I played about five of it, and man this game is actually a thing of beauty. The graphics aren't the best, but they are very fun. The aspect of just being able to adventure wherever you please is the reason why I like this so much...and space...I'm a space nerd if a nerd at all.

I started on a planet at 21 C and near to none of the other two, spacing the names (radiation/toxic?). So pretty perfect. I'm not leaving until I have looked over every little thing because that's just what I do.

Wife has to work all day, and I don't...so I know exactly how I'm wasting my day!

Edit: just booting it up and seeing the colour is crazy. I definitely think that is a very welcomed visual in this game.

Re: No Man's Sky

I still have not left my starting planet, lol. Got 30 slots in my suit, 18 slot rifle like multitool with awesome purple blaster shots shots that ricochet off objects, etc.. Mainly because I have one more animal to find, but can't find it anywhere. Got one type in the sky, and all the others on the ground. No water on the planet... I truly think it does not exist. Sad, because I wanted to 100% it.



Beautiful cave systems though...



I was hoping to start on a 'Mars Like/Look' environment with a little more alien to it, after watching The Martian 2 days in a row before the game came out, and I got lucky, and did, lol.

More in the pictures thread.

Re: No Man's Sky

So yeah, nearly died using a monolith because a sentinel attacked me after I made the selection and I was just kinda locked into the result of my interaction while he plinked away. I only lived because my ship was nearby (SERPENTINE!) and the melee-jetpack boosted movement. My shield failed just as I got control of my character again - but made it and now have a 15-slot multi-tool, lol. That and the journey accomplishments (really, a popup would have been fine outside of significant milestones) are my biggest issues with this game.
