Friendly reminder that this game does not have multiplayer.
ok?
>>332572416
No way. Why the fuck would I want to play a game about space exploration in first person view alone?
Thanks alot for the reminder, I really appreciate it. I almost forgot
>>332572416
Isn't the entire point that it's multi-player?
Do people really think that every game needs multiplayer?
>>332572416
They said from the start that it didn't, what is your point?
Can't you land on planets that other people have "claimed" and view the animals they already named?
They showcased this on Colbert's show.
>>332572963
They didn't tough.
>>332572803
Yes
>>332572593
I know right?
>>332573380
Yes, but you have no interaction with other players, as far as I am aware of anyway.
>>332572963
No they didnt. They said you could land on other peoples planets and everyone would share their discoveries. That was a pretty clear hint at multiplayer but then turned out and said its actually facebook and mobile tier shit multiplayer. No real time interaction but social status and profile faggotry.
>single player exploration game doesn't have multiplayer
wow what a revelation i cant believe it
>>332573561
>They didn't tough.
Yes they did, I have been following this game from when it first got announced and they said that it wasn't going to have multiplayer.
Even if that wasn't the case, what is your point? It doesn't have multiplayer, so what?
>>332573806
> It doesn't have multiplayer, so what?
Its trash
>>332573650
>That was a pretty clear hint at multiplaye
You are stupid aren't you? That is the same as being able to play other peoples levels on mario maker, it doesn't imply multiplayer at all.
You just have really bad comprehension skills and totally misunderstood.
Go watch the earlt E3 videos, they said all along that there wasn't going to be multiplayer.
you can run into other players i think but i'm not sure if there is any interaction. also, if the universerse is truely as big as they claim, you're unlikely to run into other people. unless they steer it into that direction. obviously it becomes more likely the closer you get to the center of the galaxy.
>>332574079
>>332573806
I am entierly sure they did mentioned encounter with other players.
Even if they were suppose to be ''rare''. They in fact, mentioned multiplayer
>>332574079
>>332573806
>>332574290
Nope, I clearly remember them saying there was no multiplayer. It was very early on in a Gamespot E3 video or it might have been just after E3 when the game was first revealed.
>No multiplayer
WHY DO I WANT A BILLION MILLION PLANETS TO EXPLORE IF I CANT SHARE THEM WITH MY FRIENDS?! WHATS THE PURPOSE?!
>>332574758
>not wanting a billion million planets to yourself
do u even solitude
>>332572416
what are the core mechanics of this game, space combat plus walking simulator?
why compels players to go beyond the first three or four planets they find?
different colors and pattern of landscape and dinosaurs doesn't equal infinite replayability or even necessarily enough motivation to go past the 4 hour mark.
>I cant form a group of space pirates with my friends.
>>332575049
This. I dont want this game anymore.
>>332572803
yes? its 2016. get with the times. multiplayer is so piss easy to integrate into games that any big dev should have no problem putting it in.
from a business standpoint, more people will buy the game because it has non-piratable multiplayer too.
>>332572803
Why not? Its an extra option and in a game like this it makes sense. It is a perfect fit to explore together.
>>332575049
I just wanted to beA space Cowboy
>tfw I have no interest in multiplayer because none of my friends are into games and most "gamers" are insufferable
>tfw this game was made for me
life is good
>>332572803
They need a reason not to pirate games or at least feel like they're getting more content than those pesky pirates who get the game for free.

>No Man’s Sky is being developed by Hello Games, a tiny indie studio in Guildford, UK

that pretty much explains it
>>332572416
their dev literally said a couple of months ago that the game supported multiple dozens of people in the same place. what are you on about, you bingo bongo mongoloid turd hunter?
People actually think this is gonna be good?
Ahahaha
Remember when people thought Spore was gonna be good? Goddamn, I'm fucking dying of laughter.
Yeah I remember them saying that when they first announced it.
Let's make a game with billions of planets. Oh yeah, everyone's gonna be so impressed by the big numbers we throw out.
>How will this game be fun; what is the point of exploring so many planets?

What games have you work on?
>>332577873

>>332572671
Its 'multiplayer' in the sense that its one consistent galaxy. So if player A discovers a planet and names it 'A's planet', it'll show up as 'A's planet' in player B's game.
You don't actually interact with any other players. You just see what they choose to name the random shit they come across.

woah......
.....this game.....

...................with multiplayer??????
oh wait this also has gas giants, lava planets, moons, more variation in randomly generated aliens, building bases and cities, building custom spaceships, creating your own species by hand, ringworlds, and faction multiplayer
>>332578394
Sounds boring. I was hoping I could find a planet, drop down and find a settlement of real players and trade. This game will get old after a couple of planets.
are we sure this game just isnt a lowlevel bit miner for the dev?
>>332578668
People thought you would be able to see other players ships as you fly around (and battle them) but no, it is just you and NPCs.
>>332578838
But that looks retarded. I dont want to play that.
>>332577873
SAVAGE
>>332578873
I agree! every game just needs to be one endless deathmatch
>>332578948
Do you have a source on that? I'm pretty certain they said that you'd see people flying around or whatever, just not really be able to interact with them.
>>332579040
it may have early 3d chat program tier graphics, but the randomly generated animals wil give you nightmares desu
and at least it's a game
>>332579113
What? I said trade not kill each other.
I really doubt the random generated animals will be different and interesting enough to make me keep coming back. What about their behaviour? Is that randomly generated too? Do these creatures interact with the enviroment like eat plants, hunt each other, dig holes, make nests etc?
>>332578668
You can potentially see other people flying/walking around, but it's not a focus of the game and you could easily mistake a player for AI.

>>332579113
>Damage Control
You could implement space police.. Like the game already does...
can anyone explain to me why everything has to be "randomly generated and expands forever!" when it comes to sandboxes? like wouldnt you rather have a finite universe filled with a better variety of unique things to see and do instead of having reskins of the same boring shit?
whats the point of exploring other planets and logging creatures when theyll all be copy pasted?
>>332578668
It won't have it at launch, but they might put it in later

Real great hipster garbage non-game there, dude.
>>332580743
They're just going off the idea that "endless" will sell, despite having almost literally nothing to do in the game. A selling point, nothing more. It's a fundamental problem with sandbox games. Having more would be great if there were things to do with it.
Any game within a city that's a sandbox annoys me on a basic level. There's all these buildings, houses, etc that you can never do anything with.
>>332575747
I would kill an infant for the mere chance of a Cowboy Bebop mmo type thing happening.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R is a better game then this No Slav's Sky. I have made my footprint in this thread.

What game? Why did you post a blank image?
>>332572803
No.
But ALL The work for multiplayer has been finished, they are simply not releasing it because it interferes with his 'vision'
They wasted months and months putting in multiplayer, rather than spending that time/money on actually making good procedural generation, and wont release it because 1 faggot in the team says so.
>I won't be able to cruise through the galaxy stopping bands of space pirates and saving the less fortunate from mean players

Multiplayer is over rated.
There are plenty of other games to play if you want to shit talk and murder people.
>>332578554
hopefully never
not every game needs multiplayer
remember what gta used to be like before gto and sharkcards?
>>332586256
>They wasted months and months putting in multiplayer

it's pretty obvious the extent of the "multiplayer" will be pulling up the names of planets etc that other players have discovered when you generate the same planet/creature etc

The developers own mouth
NMS will release with a form of multiplayer. The reason they are not putting that information in the steam page anymore is because people dont understand what it is or how it works and kept seeing "NMS has multiplayer" and thinking "HOLY SHIT THIS IS FUCKING EVE IN SPACE MY FUCKING GOD AWESOME".
Its the same system as Journey, although a bit more interactive. As you play you may occasionally have a person load into your world who is an actual person, and you can attack them, follow them, whatever. But the system is uncontrollable by the players end, you simply get dumped with another player randomly. There could be 1 million people all on the same spot, and only 1 will load in. You also cant 'keep up' with them, as they will fade out of your world, similar to ghosts in Dark Souls.
The idea is that as you play you will sometimes come across people, maybe up close or in the distance and it will be an actual person who you dont really interact with, but you get a 'cool moment thinking, is that a person or AI?'
The fact is NMS supports multiplayer, but they refuse to release a matchmaker for it or a way to party up because the main faggot developer says it interferes with his vision. Although he has said multiple times if its something people really want they will implement it.
Who gives a shit about random planet generator anyways?
Shills, how much are you getting paid to shill this?
>>332587668
Also will those Sentinel pieces of shit keep harassing you even when you kill an alien out of self defense? I can understand if you start mass murdering or mining with no self control bit come on why do they instantly attack if you put down some feral animal?

Him admitting it has multiplayer originally, which they then backtracked away from
http://gamerant.com/no-mans-sky-no-multiplayer/
Their current new multiplayer
>Murray describes the multiplayer of No Man’s Sky as having all of the online players “flying around with an open lobby,” but since the game world is so huge those players will almost never run into one another. The game is equipped to handle another player or two flying past, but there’s no need to make it capable of handling thousands or even dozens of players on screen at the same time.
Why does this game gets /v/'s panties in a bunch?
>>332588289
Did I ever say it wasn't his game?
Im saying, as with many other people, that the idea that you have finished multiplayer but wont release it be cause of your 'vision' is stupid as shit.
Of course he can fucking release it without actual multiplayer, do you think people crying about it will change that? Do you really think me saying how stupid he is will stop the game coming out?
No, but its my reason and others reasons as to why we are not touching this game. If you cant handle the fact people dont want to play it but voice their issues with it you can fuck off to a hugbox like reddit.
Now go fucking end yourself.
>>332588512
Because the Spore wound didnt heal and this is literally just Spore 0.5
People want it to be good but see all its flaws and go "WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THAT"
>>332578838
>more variation in randomly generated aliens
Where's your evidence for this? Hello Games has specifically stated they're only showing the most earthlike of aliens in trailers and in pre-play stuff because they want people to be surprised by the truly weird stuff.
>>332588315
Are those supposed to be contradictory? One says that they might add in traditional multiplayer some time after launch, while the other says that it doesn't have traditional multiplayer.
>>332587985
>>332588315
that doesn't mean
"they worked months and months on it for literally only the main dev to change his mind because of his vision"
that means they cut the idea out game, you don't know how far the mechanic was developed or implimented
you don't know why they cut it out, there could be a variety of reasons
>>332588518
wow dude, project much? I make one post and you're flying off the handle.
Sometimes you finish something and it doesn't turn out the way you want it to. So I see no problem in him deciding he didn't like how multiplayer panned out and decided to can it. That's his decision and he can make the game how he wants to.
>m- muh multiplayer in every game meme

Dont use words you dont understand, literally nothing I said was projection.
Im telling you think is your fucking hugbox, if you cant handle people criticizing stupid game design get out.
>>332588808
They planned for and finished traditional multiplayer and then cut it out for the new system.
>>332588847
>you don't know why they cut it out, there could be a variety of reasons
They have already said why and its in the articles, learn to read.
>>332589271
>They finished traditional multiplayer and then cut it out for the new system.
Source?
So does every planet I land on have an actual planet sized world for me to explore or are they just little mini worlds that I can walk a full loop around in ten minutes. Because frankly, both of those sound bad.
>>332589098
And literally nothing I said said you can't criticize it, which is why you are projecting because you're so fucking mad you think people are telling you to stop
All I did was say it's well within his right to do what he did
you fucking autist
>>332572416

Iv already posted them learn to read, jesus.
>>332589393
>which is why you are projecting because you're so fucking mad you think people are telling you to stop
All you are doing is bitching that im saying its stupid game design and trying to stop me from saying that.
If you're not, then stop posting, but you wont because now you're just trying to save face after I proved how stupid you are.
>>332572803
No, but the devs said that there was going to be multiplayer and that the game is so big it'd be nearly impossible to find one another without prep time.
>>332577873
Heh
>>332589574
Nothing you've posted says that they spent any time developing traditional multiplayer.
>>332572416
Except that's bullshit
In one demo they showed a ship getting attacked and said it was other players
>>332587985
Just saying the developers own mouth doesn't mean you have a source.
The dev has been very quite about the details of the game and especially the mp aspect. All he has really said in multiple videos is simply that the universe is so big that the chances of ever meeting another human player is very minuscule and even if you do you may not even know if that person is actually real or just another npc.
http://gamerant.com/no-mans-sky-no-multiplayer/
>>332589704
They showed more recent gameplay and stated it was single player only.
>>332572416
thats why they call it no mans sky-pe
One thing I've always thought about doing would be telling your friend to rendezvous with you at X coordinates and you start playing together that way
Could it work?

I dont usually care about graphics, but thats just an assault on the eyes.
>>332590067
It's hard time know, the dev has been kind of secretive.
He claims the universe is very big (true) and then even once you do take the time to potentially fly all the way to the meeting point and who knows how long that takes you'll have to find them on an actual planet sized planet.
And we don't know quite how the map works.
>>332590236
The game is not really a multiplayer game. It's like complaining that you can't play Journey with a friend.
this is fucking retarded

You do realise there are 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 planetsaccording to the dev.
>>332591805
I've already got it bought on steam. I've wanted it since its first premier at E3, I had spare money, and the lack of Multiplayer has/would made me like it more, not less.
>>332592426
This.
If anything the lack of multiplayer will make it more stable.
>>332572416
multiplayer would be pointless for this game since its pretty much a walking simulator in space
however optional co-op would be pretty neat
>>332572416
I thought it was multiplayer, but the odds of encountering another player were so it's almost non existent.
Is this game anything besides mindless exploration?
What is the actual gameplay?
>>332594234
You get paid for uploading new animals/plants to a databse, you can mine for shit to sell or craft, or you can be more mercenary like and steal or pillage when the opportunity arises.
Goal is to be better, and get better equipment and ships and to make it to the center of the galaxy or universe or whatever, as the deeper you go, the harder it'll be to survive and rarer matrerials will be.
I'm content with just exploring new places and naming loads of animals like some alien zoologist.
>>332594234
>>332595337
also gonna be factions and npcs and space stations
>>332578838
I thought this was second life at first desu
somehow this seems even more autistic though holy shit
>>332596435
Ah yes, and language learning (and guessing), and discovery.
Honestly, sometimes I like to pull up minecrafts and create new worlds over and over to see the strange lands it can show me, if I had more colors and a variety of animals, I'd never leave.
I already have 3 days off in time for the NMS launch so hopefully it launches smoothly.
>>332572416
So? Focusing on single player and not adding a shitty multiplayer just because muh sales is better than pandering to god damn everyone under the sun and being completely mediocre.
