So general consensus is:
>Minecraft without building
>spore without war elements
>only 10 diffirent layouts randomized 98 billion times
>60 dollar indie game
Is there anything nice you guys can say about it?
Honestly it looks pretty dope. It might not live up to the hype, but I can see myself putting a couple weeks into this game minimum.
I'm not a child or a NEET, so I'm going to buy it on GOG if it's optimized. Look forward to hundreds of hours exploring while listening to podcasts and audiobooks. Finally a space game that doesn't look fucking ugly.
>>334854318
It would take 10 years to discover every planet if everyone on earth discovered 500 planets per minute
But it would take me 10 mins to realize there is nothing interesting to do in the game No Man's Sky.

>But it would take me 10 mins to realize there is nothing interesting to do in the game No Man's Sky.
If you can't enjoy yourself in a vastly infinite game with infinite possibilities like this then gaming is not for you
>>334854665
The desert seems vastly infinite but I'm more than fucking sure you would be willing to be somewhere else and do something else after a short period of time.
As large as a ocean. As deep as a puddle.
>>334854318
that is fucking insane, how do you even put a price tag on a game like this that literally has infinite gameplay and gametime?
>>334854665
How does it have infitinite possibilities though? What a false statement from a faggy shill
>>334854971
i know rightr, insane that it's only 60 bucks which is a few fucking happy meals
>>334854971
>infinite game play
>infinite game time
>4 hours in hey look it's that duck with a fun on its head but this time it's green! Oh and there's that plant with the eyeballs but they're in different places!
>>334855009
uhh there are literally billions of planets?
>>334854665
>infinite possibilities
I haven't seen this level of delusion in a long fucking time.
This is the same level of autism that BioInfinite fans spout.
>>334855168
Infinite mean immeasurable and ever expanding.
They got the number down so it sure as fuck ain't infinite.
this feels like Spore 2.0 aka improbved in every way
>>334855345
More like Spore Round 2.
Meaning more of the same. Looks awesome in concept but they fuck it up royally.
A fucking walking simulator.
Not vidya.
>>334855168
>literally billions of the same planets
sure
>>334855168
>billions of planets where all the same shit happens
WHOAH DUDE SO MANY POSSIBILITIES.
Or do you actually think they made them all unique in their own way?
>>334855557
>Or do you actually think they made them all unique in their own way?
not him but i don't see why they couldn't?
>>334854318
>No ship customization
Why does anyone care about this again?
>>334855659
can you even customize your character?
Seems cool that you can play how you want, like you can fly around space and never set foot on a planet.
But at the same what we have seen lacks any depth at all so just amounts to boring ass flying through space or walking across planets.
>>334854665
>>334854971
>>334855168
go shill your stupid game somewhere else
>>334855607
Cause they didn't bother? Random color swap isn't new and unique.
>>334855659
>>334855720
>wanting customization
fuck off to skyrim
>>334855659
Ok. We all know these threads are being made by the one guy who will post "blunder of the century" threads after the game is released.
Trying his damnedest to make it seem like there are people who don't know it will be shallow so he can proclaim another SWTOR.
>>334855720
No multiplayer and no third person view so there is absolutely no reason to see your character. Your just a floating camera.
>>334855948
/v/ actually is anticipating this one and has been for years now since its announcement
>>334856127
There was quite a shift in attitude last year though
>>334855607
Are you fucking retarded? Do you think they went through and made every planet unique? There's "billions" because it's procedurally generated. New planets won't necessarily mean new things to do just different colored environments
>>334856036
>Your just a floating camera.
That's like saying you're just a brain
This isn't at all impressive.
If you have a pool of 20 planetary traits, and have each planet composed of 10 traits selected at random, you would end up with more than 150 000 "unique" planets.
Doesn't sound so impressive now, does it?
The game might end up being great, but this whole MUH INFINITE PLANETS shit is a dumb marketing gimmick.
>>334856221
When it was $60 confirmed project
>>334856227
who cares? they're still all unique from each other
>>334854318
One person discovering 500 planets per minute for 10 straight years is 2.6 billion planets.
6 billion people doing that means you have over 15 quintillion planets.
15,000,000,000,000,000,000
I call some serious bullshit, even with procedural generation.
>third shill thread today
>second one hasn't even hit bump limit yet
>>334856351
No they aren't, there's a set of planets that are repeated with some different tree placements here and there
>>334855849
Then what the fuck are you gonna do? Shit is be dependent on the progression system, and this is the best way to sparse the content and interest of the player in the game that will become dull in 30 minutes (assuming it would take 20 minutes for you to build a hyper drive and 10 minutes to visit a couple of planets that will show you 90% of the game's content). We are not talking about free title, this is $60 (SIXTY, SIX TENS) dollar release.
>>334856375
>thinks Sony doesn't know what they're marketing
>98,000,000,000 different angles this rock might be situated
sign me up
>>334856227
It might have been misquoted, but I read somewhere that if you leave a planet and come back to it later it just gets procedurally generated again. So it's not even saved as the same planet.
>>334856127
/v/ anticipated this game back when it was revealed. for like 4 months. then we learned as well as every-fucking-body else. that what they showed us is the entirety of the game.
So nobody is hyped anymore. Not for at least a year.
This will not be a blunder. It will go by almost unnoticed.
Threads about it for the week before and the week of release and then it will fall off the face of the earth. Just like every other release that isn't a Souls game.
>>334855659
Because there is ship customization? Not cosmetic, but upgrading ships mechanics for different things using resources is confirmed.
In terms of cosmetics, the ships are procedural as well, so there will be plenty of choices. Only small personal ships though, which is disappointing. Here is some of the variation in the fighter class (there's also explorer, scientist etc, with different general shapes/layout).
>>334856375
its all seeds, not finished generated planets
>>334854318
It'll make a nice coaster for my Star Citizen premium edition
>>334855168
but once you are on a planet what can you actually DO?
This is just random planet generator viewer: the game
>>334854665
>infinite possibilities
Lucky for you I don't want that many. List 100 possibilities nigger.
>>334856248
If you never see your character and nobody else will either than you might as well be.
>>334856375
The max number is 18 quintillion, the game uses 64 bit seed
>>334856471
and? why the fuck should a planet be saved, if you visit the moon and leave and come back 2 years later it won't be the same anymore it will have changed and the devs nailed this
>>334856591
Shoot some animals and make the robot police mad, collect rocks to make a better gun to shoot animals, repeat.
It'll be good
You can see in pretty much every thread that the majority of people "against" it are shitposters.
>>334856543
undertale was discussed for a year straight daily until bump limits were hit on /v/
>>334856658
Also the current number of people on earth is above 7 billion for 3 years, are you from 2005?
>>334856591
it's about the journey not the destination you imagination less retard
>>334856662
>if you visit the moon and leave and come back 2 years later it won't be the same anymore
Umm, anon...
Well see. Since I played Minecraft I wish there was a game like it but based around exploration instead of surviving and creativity.
But what they're marketing doesn't seem like anything I care about. I want to know what the lands are like, if there's caves, good ambience, secrets, collectibles, etc. Many planets and animals doesn't sell me and the gameplay I've seen doesn't seem so great.
>>334856751
Undertale was discussed for years prior to it's release and faggots still talk about it not after it's release/
You get one noticeable No Man's Sky thread a week since last year.
>>334856642
>If you never see your character and nobody else will either
what th efuck they were joking when they said it would take years for a player to find another player, they didn't mean that
My onky gripe is that they havnt shown how deep animal interaction or society is.
I would be upset if there are no predatory hierarchy, nests/homes, babies, social interaction or depth to the AI
Somehow i can imagine its not there
>>334856662
>Spend hours traveling across a planet learning about it's geography and wildlife and how best to survive on it
>Go to space for a minute to sell some materials
>Come back and the planet is a totally new one so you might as well have just travelled to a different planet
Sounds fun.
>>334856931
not him but he is right, the moon will have things done to it and shit while you were gone it's not like it's waiting patiently for you to return
it could get hit by a meteor or who the fuvk knows
>>334857074
They haven't shown much depth at all besides the most basic shit
>>334857001
The game doesn't have multiplayer faggot.
You just find other planets other people visited and named.
You will never see another person since the game doesn't have multiplayer.
>>334856853
sooo... nothing?
what are you trying to say here?
Its got billions of planets but its not about the planets.
Its about flying through empty space.
Have I got that right?
>>334856853
I would defend this argument but so far I've seen just planets with different colors. Nothing groundbreaking cause you can basically tell what is behind the next cliff...
>>334857082
But completely change to something new? No. They didn't "nail" anything, it is a bullshit gimmick.
>>334857145
I can understand why not. If they do have something like baby animals and animal nests i would be greatly satisfied finding it while playing, while if they show it off now it would sort of ruin the moment when i do it.
Then again spending time looking for shit that doesnt exist wouldnt be fun.
>>334857273
you dont know if it's going to be changed to something completely new it could still have randomly generated into the same color and stuff you dojnt know
>>334857082
>who the fuck knows
us.
we know.
Nothing has changed up there.
If a meteor hits, it will just rearrange the dust up there.
Same dust.
Same moon.
Same flora/fauna (in our moon's case, none)

AMAZING 10/10 GOTY
>why are indie games dying
OH GEE I DUNNO
I just don't see myself getting a game that's more about popping in from time to time to fly around and "discover" shit than working towards an end goal for $60
>>334857154
it does they were jkoking on not finding other players in the game, learn how to fucking spot a joke holy shit
>>334857078
the parameter which tells what the planets environment should be like is still there, so it's basically different painting but with the same colors.
>>334857078
Shit is consistent, so unless you've fucked up the planet to smithereens it would not regenerate the seed. I also assume it's pulling the data from the servers, at least partially, as the game slowly generates, hence the "DISCOVERED BY X" shit
>>334857448
Yet to see a single fucking thing about any sort of other human interaction other than going to a planet someone else has named.
>>334857078
same seed, same result
Is it even worth a pirate?
It's got infinite planets like borderlands got infinite weapons
it don't
wait i thought /v/ loved games with dinosaurs, isn't it a running meme here to ironically buy any game that has dinosaurs in it? what happened?
>The goal is to get to the center of the galaxy
>That shit will be spoiled day 1
What is the point of this game? Like, god damn. I cannot comprehend why anyone would buy it. It looks like some puddle deep shit you find on gamejolt
>>334854318
>only 10 diffirent layouts
Is there a source to this? That sounds really lame
>>334854318
>only 10 diffirent layouts randomized 98 billion times
where is the source. if this thing is real,this game will be fucking shit
So other than walking around looking at scenery that might or might not be well generated, have they said anything that sounds fun about gameplay mechanics yet? Everything I've heard sounds incredibly shallow or basic.
>>334857629
buy it and you will see
How is everything in this game undiscovered when every time you land on a planet there seem to be trade stations around and the space police can show up in a matter of seconds if you look at the indigenous wild life funny no matter where you are?
>>334857074
they made this game with 2 (two) people
of course that stuff is all going to be in it, just pre order man
>>334857959
Well you can fly, have a gun, kill animals and defenders that die in one hit. There's also a star meter like in GTA. There's little depth
>>334857865
Unless you somehow get into the game's archives shit won't be spoilered in such a short time
>>334857994
haha. No.
Fuck yourself.
>>334857925
>>334857932
No, there isn't. It's just hate shitposting.
>>334854665
>a vastly infinite game with infinite possibilities
do you enjoy walking around the sahara desert because it's so vast and infinite?
neither do i.
>>334856627
Not even the same guy, but this one's easy. I'll go ahead and do it for him!
1. You can fly in space
2. You can fly on a red planet
3. You can fly on a blue planet
4. You can fly on a green planet.
Do I really need to go on? You're making this too easy.
5. You can fly on a purple planet.
6. You can fly on a yellow planet.
I'm not even close to being done. This game simply just has too much content. There's so much to do.
7. You can fly on a magenta planet.
8. You can fly on a orange planet.
9. You can fly on a grayish blue planet.
10. You can fly near a red planet.
I think you now understand how foolish you were to question the absolute cornucopia of content in this game. I literally don't even have the time to list it all out.
>>334856853
so it's minecraft in space
but without most of the building and survival and crafting mechanics that made minecraft popular
>>334858210
Flying is one possibility. We're off to a solid start. Keep them coming.
>tfw our own universe is just part of a shitty indie game programmed by a bunch of hipster faggots
>>334858210
dont forget:
you can fly at a 1 degree angle on the x plane
you can fly at a 2 degree angle on the x plane
you can fly at a 1 degree angle on the y plane
you can fly at a 2 degree angle on the y plane
you can fly at a 1 degree angle on the z plane
you can fly at a 2 degree angle on the z plane
etc.
and all the combinations!
>>334857959
From what we know, the base gameplay is you walk around a planet, name animals and mine materials. You use these to craft basic items which eventually let you leave the planet and travel to a further away one.
The only deeper gameplay seems to involve the buildings/alien NPCs that live on planets. You learn their language by discovering stone tablets over the planet and this lets you trade with that race. Killing the NPC makes the race (or just possibly every NPC in the universe) hostile towards you, which makes traversal and gaining money harder. In theory.
The "general consensus" is that /v/ doesn't have a "general consensus" you fucking redditard.
>>334858352
okay, in each of these planets you can
battle wildlife
battle sentinels
mine crystals (different color with in each planet)
>>334857376
>indie
sony is publishing
>>334858621
But why do you battle the sentinels and wildlife?
Why do you collect the crystals?
>>334857840
nah /v/ now ironically buys and praises games with furries in it like undertale
>>334858721
sometimes the wildlife attacks you so you have to defend yourself, don't know about the sentinels. collecting crystals lets you build better gear.
>>334858872
I was under the impression there was no building or customization of any kind.
>>334859062
>Why you shouldn't take anything /v/ says seriously: the post
>shills so bad they just outright tell you to buy it
>no other sell point except le too many worlds
Fucking dropped
>>334858345
>/v/ suddenly hates minecraft
wait what?
>>334859062
customization? a little I guess, that means the ship. you can add some stuff to your gun. but that's it.
>>334859232
/v/ has always hated minecraft. not really sure why. probably cause of the fanbase.
>>334859245
that sounds awesome and it's still more than 99,9999% of games
>>334858478
You can shoot some guardians
You can shoot some animals
You can have 5 stars
4 stars
3 stars
2 stars
1 star
>>334859349
/v/ is the reason minecraft became popular
>>334854553
this pretty much nailed it on the head

>>334859232
>suddenly
Where have you been these last 5 years?
>>334859349
It's because Notch is a Jew who reneged on all his promises and "released" an incomplete game.
He also used to post here, so there's a "it was my thing first" type of bitterness.
Minecraft worlds are infinite and they are fucking boring.
Erectile: Dysfunction is a boring piece of shit despite the same claims as this game.
>>334859519
so basically, I farm stuff from other planets so I can build a suit which allows me to go to another planet to farm stuff?

i've rebuild countless stuff in minecraft like the deathstar, pikachu, ash, misty etc
>>334859825
Are you literally underage or something?
>>334859349
/v/ hated minecraft after Notch stopped taking advice on changes for the game and started saying Reddit was the inspiration of the game.
It is the exact same reason /v/ hates Ace of Spades. Because the creator turned it's back on conflicting, differing, and interesting opinions and ideas for a hug box of stale, like minded, and bad opinions and ideas.
>>334859825
and this is why NMS won't work. you can't really do stuff like that.
>>334859825
Reading comprehension please.
Minecraft's procedural worlds are boring.
You BUILD stuff to keep you interested, you don't go running around genning hills caves and trees for hours just for kicks, it all looks the same eventually with slight variations because of the limits of the assets it works with.

So yes, literally underage
>>334856749
Hello fellow Dev,
Maybe you should polish up the game first to let us like it
Stop hyping this shit until it comes out
Chances are, it'll be fucking terrible
>>334859812
Yeah, or a ship upgrades, or gun upgrades. I don't see the problem, you'll find it's a pretty common gameplay loop.
Do stuff->upgrade stuff->do harder stuff->upgrade stuff more only describes the vast majority of games out there.
>>334854553
This, I'm not a pathetic child, I can't wait to set up moon bases with turrets and dig to the core of planets until I hit magma, maybe even cause volcanoes to erupt and terraform some worlds

That pretty well describes Starbound and it's terrible

Hm...
Is there anything on the planets? It doesn't matter when there are billions of planets if all of them are empty.
>>334856853
without a destination, there is no journey.
i'd have as much fun with this game as i would with a giant, empty, cardboard box. the box wouldn't cost me nearly as much and at least i could find a find a way to make it multiplayer somehow.
Reading this thread is depressing. It's like not only are there confirmed to be underage posters but it seems like they don't even know what a Molyneux is or why no mans sky will be dull.
Come on famula. It is all fluff and always be fluff. We are not that far ahead yet.
Also shills please leave, this is the wrong place to do it
what's the difference between this game and something like noctis IV?
>>334860456
And pretty much every RPG on the market. What's your point?
I don't even care about people shilling the fuck out of this game, I'm just excited to see the disappointment that comes with its release.
I can't believe anybody is even fucking bothering with this game after the words "procedurally generated" were used. Clear sign of laziness and lack of inspiration.
>>334856584
No Man's Shit aside I really want Star Citizen to fail, only because every fan of it I know is a smug asshole about how they contributed to the most successful kickstarter campaign, how they are helping bring back the best genre ever, etc.
I loved Freelancer but holy shit I haven't seen people slurp dick that hard before.
>>334860568
They are filled with billions of palette swapped pockemans.
>>334860725
They all have end goals, crafted narratives and worlds, and characters.
NMS has none of those things, it has procedurally generated garbage that passes for content.And don't even try to tell me that "get to the center of the galaxy" is a good end goal.
>>334859918
First thing: /v/ isn't one person.
People on /v/ hate Ace of Spade because the devs turned it into a retarded "minecraft with guns" instead of a proper trench warfare simulator. Giving everyone a machine gun was a huge mistake, and everything since then (especially the atrocity which is the Jagex remake) has only made things worse and even more unplayable.
Minecraft is hated for a bit of similar problem. Back in 2009-2010 it was presented as 3D Doft Fortress thing. People kept expect real mechanics and chalked off the simplisity of the gameplay as temporary since it was still in its early development stages.
But then Alpha was released and the game was still very simplistic.
And then Beta was released and the game was still very simplistic.
And then the game was "officially" released and it's been almost the exact same shit as what we've had since /infdev/, except with some absolutely retarded magical and pseudo-RPG XP & hunger elements shoved in at the last minute.
People are upset because they bought into Notch's lies and got the exact same shitty survival lego they thought is just the pre-alpha presented to them as the full game. We never got any of those multiplayer modes, we never even got a modding API.
Notch is a Jew.
You know, I have no problem with NMS being what it is right now. It's just walking sim in space with little stuff to do, it's a tech demo, that's it.
My problem with the game is that the devs and sony keep marketing it as if there is INFINITE POSSIBILITIES and fuckloads of stuff to do, and this is why you have to pay 60 fucking eurobucks for it.
That's just wrong and everyone who thinks this is anything new or that the game keeps you hooked up for hours doing all kinds of cool shit is fucking retarded.
It's a cool looking tech demo, that's it. Now fuck off shills.
>>334860904

Regardless. AoS was turning into that turd becasue the Dev stopped taking advice from people on /v/ and started taking the shitty fucking advice of redditors.
All of the things you said are true but Notch did also neglect the involvement of /v/ in his development of the game early.
Also notch being the lazy shit that he was and still is took numerous "vacations" during development an we still don't got a proper Modding API after MicroPenis took over.

Trust me, it's gonna get spoiled in one day once people like me get all the files downloaded and running.
>>334854553
Idk the IGN gameplay showed a bunch of ugly textures and pop in. The shit reminded me of WoW graphics sometimes
Gonna download it but i'm not expecting much more than 15~20h of fun. If i'm wrong then i'll buy it.
>>334854665
this fucking logic. this is the kind of "Sounds smart" shit that publishers buy into.
Like anyone else said, its like the surface of the ocean without any of the depth. WOWEE SO MANY POSSIBILITIES AND NONE OF THEM ARE REMOTELY INTERESTING.

Here's a (You) because most of you faggots are working really hard for one, I can tell
>>334861708
They'll just make it always online to fuck everyone over even more.
The centre of the galaxy will be god or some other pretentious bullshit. It's always the way. They want to have something bigger and better and more important than everything that came before it, so it's god. Always fucking god.
People who fall for this probably fell for memerland's billions of guns
>>334860470
All the way through everytime
>>334861635
You can't tell a majority on /v/. There are no polls here, there is no like/dislike system. Any "majority" or "consensus" you think you've got nailed down is probably false.
Ever heard of the "loud minority"? There might be 500 people who hold opinion A and make 2 posts about it, and there might be 50 people who hold opinion B and make 30 posts about it. Opinion A would get maybe 1000 posts, and opinion B would get 1500 posts. Does that mean opinion B is in the "majority"?

You can tell back then due to a thread not devolving into nothing but shit posts and Troll faces.
Just people actually talking about the games.
But you wouldn't know that. You haven't been here very long.

What mystical and magical 4chan have you been browsing you fucking faggot?
>>334862479
The 4chan of the yonder year 2008.
>>334854665
Having trillions of planets doesn't mean jack squat unless I can create a intergalactic corporation like in EVE.
Can I do that?

or lol

When you get to the center you will have the choice to fuck everyone over by resetting the galaxy.

I don't need to imply. I lived through it.
>>334862723
Somehow I very much doubt it.

Most people would. Newfags think /v/ has always been this shitty.
They wouldn't have guess that the /b/ board died multiple times and gave spawn to how bad this shit is today.
throw in new faggots such as yourself and people from Reddit and tumblr and you have what we currently call /v/
The game is giving mixed messages about itself. They keep touting the heptillions of planets and implore you to explore as many as you can, but at the same time, the actual gameplay seems to be centred on individual planets.
"There's 50 trillion planets, but pick one and stick with it"
>>334860424
at which point did the devs say you can do that?
>>334863045
What did clicking on the "?" or "@" links in the hotbar lead you to, respectively?
>>334854318
Are people impressed by that image? Is this game marketed toward people who don't understand how seeding works?
>LE CENTRE OF DA GALAXY N SHEIIT
Isn't that whole game is basically Godus/Curiosity – What's Inside the Cube gimmick on repeat?
You scrtach through repetetive procgen vomit for some pie in the sky surprise at the end?
>>334862723
You glorify it too much. If you were above the age of 12 at the time I'd believe it. And fuck you no one cares you were here. Welcome to the minority now. You're still an anon like everyone who should lurk moar and shut the fuck up.
>wat if starbound was 3d but didn't have furry waifus?
>and also somehow has less fucking content than starbound since you can't even build
I'm just not sure why this game gets any attention. I'm guessing sony marketing because lol console "exclusive"?
>>334863279
It certainly wouldn't be the only game that does this.
>>334854318
its seemed like a neat little indie game to fuck around in when it was announced
then it got hyped to shit and is now $60, thanks sony #4theplayers
it will be the cancer generation's spore
>>334863371
I never said there wasn't shit posting just when a majority of people had reletively the same stance on something the thread they had the stance on wasn't filled to burst with nothing but shitposting and troll faces.
Everyone still called each other faggots and niggers all day.
>>334863550
Get over yourself.
>>334863371
I also don't care I was here 8 years ago. Just wanted people to know this place was actually different back then.
Although not much has change but even the slightest changes can have drastic effects.
>>334854318
That their selling and talking points have always been
>LOOK HOW AT A HUGE NUMBER! HUGE! PROCEDURAL GENERATION IS WOW, WOAH!
is a huge turnoff for this game.
>>334863550
So basically, it was a circlejerk?
Billions of planets with nothing to do, just like this universe.

i want to be able to customize my ship and make the interior living space like a comfy space cabin
is this going to be possible?
>>334854318
You see all these things, but what I see is:
>Noctis IV with combat and trading
And i'm all fucking about that shit.
Why didn't they make native humanoid races that generate too with buildings or levels of advancement that generate. So you could find or help new races of aliens. Maybe some tag a long, probably too much work. Just throw the same robots on each planet.
this game just looks like it has no fucking content and for $60 fuck that.

We just haven't gotten far away enough from the moon for it to respawn.
>>334854318
>playing this when you can just download space-engine for free
Game would be cool if there was multiplayer.
I mean how the fuck does it no support it?
This is a game where it would actually be HARD to grief people since the chance of even seeing another person is low.
Not to mention the idea of finding a random planet someone has built a base on/settled would keep me playing for a long time.
Then they could expand on it with space/regular combat, conquering systems, etc...
Fucking huge wasted opportunity.
>>334856853
this makes sense on earth, in earth there's a lot of stuff clustered around to make journey's pleasurable.
space is 99.9999999% fucking nothing, and most of the "something" dotted around is dust and rocks.
seriously, the sheer amount of nothing between even the planets in our solar system is astounding. it's fucking incomprehensibly empty.
>>334864293
there is multiplayer.
>>334864080
Nope. Common sense not wanted in this game.
This game is going to be amazing.
>>334864482
>>334864496
i just wanted to be comfy...
:'(
>>334864568
Proof. Show it. The steam page says otherwise.
I want to explore the universe with my friends
is that possible?
>>334864619
NONONONONO
NO
>>334864647
I don't know samefag why don't you check the steam page or read the thread? This isn't some obscure kickstarter project.
>>334864671
but whyyy???
i want to explore, gather trophies and hang them on the walls of my space cabin and relax on my space sofa while sipping some space whiskey :(
>>334863995
The real universe is a lot shittier.
Billions of planets and it's impossible for the players to visit another solar system.
We have to content ourselves with virtual realities in which we actually reach alien life.
No planets to reach and nothing to do.
>>334864615
>>334864496
>>334864482
>>334864293
Which is just another layer of disappointment to this game. Of all the space games where walking around inside the ship that doubles as a personal yacht with bar for comfy would fit this would be the one that needs it.
>>334864867
BILLIONS AND BILLIONSGame looks boring as fuck.
>>334863889
Early discussion before Notch bailed on us, it was a bunch of faggots shooting ideas off each other.
After he left and proclaimed all his idea's were reddit's. It was everyone bitching that Notch was a hack and stole the game from the infiniminer guy.
>>334864960
Ok. The game doesn't suck your dick either. Are you going to cry about that next? Go on.
>>334864960
Especially considering that naming creatures gimmick.
Why can't you take your favourite ones with you and keep them in an on board zoo of sorts?
IT'S GONNA BE SHIIIIIIT
So what the fuck do you even DO on planets? Just walk around and collect stuff? Is there any reason to land on planets other then wandering around? I haven't watched any of the recent footage, but I remember they had a 10-15 minute demo a while back and that's all that happened.
>>334864568
Nope, skip to 3:52
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ORFgfhj_hM
Also no gas giants. I'm starting to wonder if it'll have true ice worlds or magma worlds either.
>tons of different species trading with one another
>largely populated universe
>0 cities
Wow. I guess the most these guys build are remote outposts.
>>334864971
anon why are you doing this?
are you telling me a game about exploration doesn't allow you to customize the vessel which you use to explore?
thats preposterous
>>334865204
Walking sim: the game. You explore to get credits to increase how much you can explore.
>>334854318
>It would take 10 years to discover every planet if EVERYONE ON EARTH discovered 500 planets per minute
>EVERYONE ON EARTH discovered 500 per minute
>500 per minute
Where the fuck do these people get their numbers?
How would all the entire human population only discover 500 shitty planets in one minute?
If you're going to make some shitty statement like this atleast don't go full retard with numbers.
>>334855009
>>334855168
"a billion different planets" does not mean there are a billion different planets worth exploring.
if you'd generate a billion square mile map on minecraft and remove all crafting and digging mechanics there won't be a billion square miles you need to see before you get bored with walking
Ok so I did some research and there MIGHT be some multiplayer aspects.
Supposedly whatever a player does to a planet can be seen by the next person to find that planet.
If this is the case, then what the fuck happens if two people happen to be on the same planet and meet each other?
I can't find any official comments on this, and with only 2 months till release it doesn't look good.

If you find an animal or mineral thats never been found before you can name it
They revealed there would be a filter when the game launches in a recent IGN video

>>334854318
The whole no loading screen thing is neat. Even if asteroids randomly pop in when you leave planets... I guess I kinda like the art style.
Other than that, No Multiplayer's Sky looks pretty shit.
>>334865503
that doesn't sound like much of an incentive to keep me playing for long
>>334865328
>How would all the entire human population only discover 500 shitty planets in one minute?
I'm not sure, but I think they meant as in if each individual would discover 500 planets per minute. I thought it was to emphasize even more the amount of planets.
>>334865119
I don't need a bj from a game, nor a yacht with bar. A game about WWII dog fighting in space somehow found the time to design for the latter, and maybe with another 100 million the former could be possible as well.
