Re: No Man's Sky

It definitely could have to do with PSVR. But the original report said they are hearing July or August. So it could be being done for some bug cleanup. It happens like that sometimes.

Re: No Man's Sky

Especially with a game like this that I'm sure has an insane amount of possible bugs that could pop up at anytime from planet to planet

Re: No Man's Sky

Just a rumor thus far. I'm expecting a good sized gameplay video at E3 and if they show it in PSVR, then im definitely expecting it to be delayed until October.

A few extra months isn't much of a big deal plus makes sense since it gives Sony's holiday lineup and PSVR launch another major release.

Delays have been pretty much a given for almost every game this gen. As long as it makes the game better, im fine with it.

That all depends on your work schedule. As a high school teacher, this news is hugely detrimental to how much playing time I can allot to it when it comes out.

If the delay is true, then part of me has by backlog thanking them, lol.

Re: No Man's Sky

In my opinion another delay could hurt sales as well. There are only so many games I buy every year anymore. I used to buy everything and anything that came out, but I am a lot pickier with my gaming dollar now. Next months release date was perfect as there was nothing else I was really geared up to play besides Mirrors Edge. So if it releases later, among other top titles or heavier hitters in the gaming market. It honestly might get pushed aside for something else and get lost in the shuffle completely.

If it releases July or early August it won't really have anything to compete with either. After Mirror's Edge you have a 2 month gap until the next big AAA game in Deus Ex. Even September looks pretty open with only FF15 at the end of he month.

If it does get pushed into October/November though then they'll have an issue. With them announcing a delay so late though, I can't imagine it would be something that would push the game back more than 2 months.

Re: No Man's Sky

With my back log....no worries. The delay is actually a good thing LOL. No in all seriousness......I am looking forward to the game when it finally is out. A few more months is no big deal.

As a guy who worked in Education for 9 years, I definitely know what you mean

Sorry, I don't know how to embed twitter posts. Now rumors it could be released EARLY!

I'm taking this with a huge grain of salt though.

It would make some sort of sense in a round about way. The fact that Sean Murray or Sony hasn't confirmed a delay might give this rumor some merit.

Re: No Man's Sky

Not pertaining to the delay at all, I have a question about the planets.

As it seems (and as would be true around the universe), there is no planet that is anything like ours. I'm not just talking green grass and blue skies, I'm talking civilization: roads, buildings, ground transportation, and populated areas, etc.

I'm not saying that this is something that's requested of them, but I'm wondering if we will find any diamond-in-the-rough planets like this, or if the majority are simply "weird" for the sake of being weird.

Don't get me wrong, I'd rather explore into the fantastical myself, but these planets also are as I'd envision other planets to be. I wonder if there will be any that have a unique semblance of civilization. I know there are buildings here and there, but definitely few and far between, it seems.

------------------------------------------------------------------

On another topic entirely, I've gotten much more hyped up for this game after thinking about how we will post as a community. You see, the majority of games have us explaining the same thing over and over. Whether it's GTA, Uncharted, or whatever... we are all on "this" mission or "this" chapter. Now we are going to be describing experiences that is more than likely unique to ourselves. We can explain it, and without a single shred of evidence in picture or video form, we can probably all believe it! This all depends on how ambitiously this title has been developed, but this can open up to the craziest stories every hour of the first couple months of release, if not significantly longer. And this isn't even talking about how we chose to customize our exploration strategies like vehicles, weapons, etc.

Furthermore, I can't wait until a few of us even try to explain where we are at in the universe. It would almost be more exciting being able to run into each other in the game than it would be to run into each other in real life. What a vast, expansive universe this is... and yet we may never actually have any encounters with other human players even once the entire time! It's so crazy to think about that, and even seemingly crazier to think about how we will feel when we first find somebody.

Man oh man, I hope so. It would bring me off the edge lol.
