1. This game is going to be mediocre
2. This low-to-mid-budget game, made by a small team of 13 people, will almost certainly be profitable due to all the idiots preordering it. I doubt it even needs to sell 50k to make its money back.
3. These facts still blast your asshole
4. It will be on gog

It wont be the game hyped people want it to be. It will be the game they told us it would be from the start. Procedural generated explorarion game with survival aspects in a multiplayer world only with a small chance of finding another player. It never was a "You can do anything" type of game
just lower your expectations.
as long as you go in for a comfy game experience i think it could work out.

Fucking this. Shit has been blown way the fuck out of proportion. That main dev guy even liked my tweet where I said the game has been overhyped to the hundreds.
I fucking hate the hype-mongering retards who can't think for themselves before a game comes out. Shit like that is why games like fo4 sells fucking gold, even though most people later on have said they were disappointed by it.

Do you have any idea how much programmers cost per year?
All these anons just spouting contrarian /v/ shit and just parroting whatever they see.
I understand not being hyped, but at least research the game first to see what it's actually about.

i'm pretty sure /v/ and those retards commenting on YT are the same people. meme spouting faggots all around
>>344269380
I think it looks fun. I'll buy it. Only 60$ anyways.
This make anybody else wanna play Noctis again? Because NMS feels like a spiritual successor to Noctis. Granted, it is a game too old for /v/ to care about but JUST too young to talk about /vr/, which depresses me because it's so easy to make your own stories and basically half the point of the game is taking pictures which would work great on a, ya know, image board.
>>344269380
Do they really want $60 American dollars for this game? I think that's how much I saw it for on steam. The concept of the game sounds neat but I just can't fathom paying that much for it.
>>344271041

You go to space and stuff?
???
>>344269380
Generally when I see a thread about this game I pop in to see what's up. Everybody likes space. I'm not a guy that has any money but I will make the $60 to buy this game and I don't expect much. If it provides comfy space exploration, that's good enough.
>>344280047
>If it provides comfy space exploration, that's good enough.
And that's fine. It just bugs me how Murray has been intentionally vague about things like multiplayer and it's led to a lot of misinformed people that might be genuinely surprised and upset when the game launches.
>>344280237
If it does have some kind of multiplayer I'd imagine it would be setup like Minecraft in that you would generate a world and invite friends. If it is just one big open world, that's pretty awesome. If that's the case, I'd assume you could meet with friends at certain coordinates. I guess we'll just have to see.
>>344281290
Or you know, just go look at the steam and GOG pages for the game. Where it is labeled as singleplayer.
>>344281417
Or that. I have no problem with that. I can't wait to fly.
alreayd got it preordered
not a poorfag pleb
have been on media black out
some little pisssant shitter has been making shitter threads now everyday since its gone gold
honestly cant wait to try it out
getting it for ps4 because on PC i bet all the pc shitters are gonna hack to the center of the universe in under 1 hour and fucking spoil everything and rename all planets to dickbut and nigger and shit and ruin the entire game and everything

Its a single player procedural sandbox with nothing in it but some alien npcs who do nothing. why would anyone want this?
>>344282146
Noice
Nothing wrong with purchasing a mediocre game. Atleast it won't be bad.
>>344271349
yeah we get it its literally nothing. games that are entirely procedural generated are almost always dogshit. Wide as an ocean deep as a puddle just like all games that tout how big their empty open worlds are
Can't wait for the shitstorm when it comes out and it's just a shitty Evochron
Who cares? It releases on GOG. It will be up on torrent sites within 5 minutes of its release. I'll be playing it while you cry about how expensive it is.

How is it mediocre? It's a pretty impressive game from a technical standpoint.
It's also MP without being a shootyfest. I've been waiting for a game where people are out there but you'll rarely see them. You'll have to chart the stars just to find people. It's a legit universe.
>>344283152
Its a randomly generated map the size of a galaxy or some shit. Id love for you to tell me what you even think it could be populated with besides randomly generated enemies and supplies? There is no game design. There are no missions, no levels, nothing to explore, its just nothing. Please explain to me what you think this game is.
>>344283281
A comfy exploration game, kind of like a more interactive version of Space Engine
I avoided the hype so far, spend about an hour yesterday to read up on gameplay details.Is this game really always online? Like, I'll always have to share the galaxy with other players, there is no "my own offline galaxy, where everything is mine to explore"? If so, that triggers me a little bit.
>>344283238
Why wouldnt you? PC are the only system that can play games at 4k. I dont understand. Are you suggesting most games available on PC are low budget indie games? Because the only games not on PC are whatever has managed to remain console exclusive over the years, which is almost nothing. Please take your childish console wars to reddit

How is it impressive? Daggerfall had an enormous randomly generated map as well 20 years ago. Its not hard to do. It requires no game design or creativity. Just turn on the algorithm and it plants meaningless shit everywhere with no direction

>>344269380
#2 is what really surprises me about this game. People don't seem to understand that this is a mid budget game made by a group of indiedevs, and not a AAA game by EA. This game is going to be extremely limited in what you can do and see, and a lot of people are going to be let down by it. It's partly the developers fault for not being up front about the game with the marketing, but you can't put it all on them when consumers are stupid enough to get hyped for an indie game with no objective and =expecting grand theft universe
>>344283576
did some more googling, looks like you're right.
Apparently if you play offline, and then decide to join the online world, your offline-discoveries will be uploaded to the shared world. That bothers me a little bit.
Still, feels like nobody has a 100% clear outline of what single- and "multiplayer" will look like.
>>344270392
>in a multiplayer world only with a small chance of finding another player.
actually they took that back and said there is a 0% chance of running into anyone else because the game is single player only. The only interaction is that you get to name things if you're the first to find them.
I knew it was shit from the beginning. He kept saying the objective of the game was to reach the center of the universe which would be a hub for missions, trading, etc. If everyone is racing towards one center location, it would have been easy to meet up with friends at that point, but despite saying that he kept saying that "you probably wont see anyone because it's too big!"
>>344283708
You see this industry that has no value for its workers, fucks people with DLC, and does everything it does when it comes to the mobile market, and this is what kills your hope for humanity?
>post yfw this game sells gorillions and "procedurally generated" becomes the new "open world" and game design ceases to exist
The fact that the ships aren't ships but more just jets, you can't walk around in them, you can't get a crew for you ships. Is just really disappointing.
>>344284254
this sounds good
>>344283708
the games target market are hypebeasts who blow shit out of proportion and won't take a second to read what the game actually is before buying it.
this is literally going to be a walking simulator in space.
does anyone have a link to that interview where the interviewer is like "so what exactly do you do in this game besides explore" and the developer is like "well uh, heh...you can do a lot like...explore and uhhhhh... heh take a look at this crater!"
>>344283805
You can gather resources, name species, fight inhabitants, turn them against others, upgrade your ship, your suit, your weapons, do trading. Probably other mechanics that haven't been revealed.
The game has all of the gameplay loops you would expect in a modern game, except it's set in a massive universe that you can't fully explore without doing these things. No hyperdrive? Goodluck getting to other solar systems in a timely manner.
You sound mad a game you don't like is getting good press and PR.

>>344283991

They haven't taken anything back. There was always going to be a small chance of finding someone, and it remains that way. Do your research.
>>344284362
You just listed everything in this game and then some that will be stripped. They already stripped multiplayer after saying it was in (yes they fucking said it was in before you say they didn't.)
mining is a distraction. it's not quite a walking simulator but seriously how much fun do you anticipate getting from mining something? and how many things are you expecting to be able to buy from the money you gain from the resources you gather? it's going to be a far from impressive upgrade system.
and that's all its ever meant to be from the beginning, but people overblew it when they heard the word "infinite".
>>344284285
There's already a game doing that. Why does every space game need to do that?
>>344271676
Please Todd, go away.
>>344284362
>No hyperdrive? Goodluck getting to other solar systems in a timely manner.
Does it use like realistic distances? So like you could like fly to other planets in a solar system but it would take real life weeks without a hyperdrive? And getting to other galaxies would take light years?

Why Todd try so hard to sell his games in here?

>>344284045
no. just what killed it today and its only 7am. all that other shit affects me too.
>>344284254
You still have to design like near all of the game for procedural stuff. Just rather than hand placing houses and mountains you have coding that will have parameters to do it.
>>344284785
The ships are much faster than what we experience in reality. Going from the edge of a galaxy to a galaxy center will take 4 days without hyperdrive.
>>344283178
you do realize that says limited edition, and thats at a reduced price right?
>>344282839
And minecraft was a complete sandbox, this game will consist of literally nothing but
>go to Planet A, look at some animals
>Get resources, upgrade ship
>Go to Planet B
>Look at some slightly different looking animals
>Get some slightly different looking resources
>Upgrade ship
>Go to Next Planet
It will get boring in 4 hours
>>344285078
Yeah its fucking awful. You make assets, give it some simple rules and flip the on switch. Theres no design, no artistic flare, no creativity or inspiration. And on top of the cancerous procedural world there are no missions or anything to do in it

You're seriously not understanding the information that has been released, or you're trolling. Multiplayer and PVP IS in No Man's Sky.
The only caveats here are that the scale of the game is so massive that you will rarely meet people. There's no coop, no matchmaking, just pure chance of meeting people through coordination or random encounter.
>>344285215
>go to dungeon A

>>344284254
If this can be perfected in the future, it should be great.
>>344285429
Except those dungeons are designed. There is combat, gameplay, exploration, carefully crafted scripting, musical cues, direction, etc.
No mans sky is literally just endlessly landing on empty maps with no design and doing nothing on them except press x to take resources
The dev who does all the interviews is completely up his own ass.
>it's supposed to make you think how small and alone we all are in a big universe
>"that's cool, but can I play with friends?"
>NO! YOU'RE FUCKING SMALL AND ALONE, THIS IS MY ART! IT'S NOT THAT KIND OF GAME!
>But all of your potential buyers want to be able to share this with friends and not wander aimlessly alone before getting bored and quitting
>NO! THEY SHOULD FIND A DIFFERENT GAME!
He is jerks off over how artistic and amazing it all is, being such a huge world and everything, but no one's gonna play it and appreciate it if he continues like he has been doing. So many people are saying that they want to build a community around this game, to have hubs of trad and interaction and everything and he's constantly shutting any suggestions like that down because he wants this to be art
My prediction is, it appears hugely popular on release because of all the pre-orders, lasts maybe a week or 2, the player base gets bored, he still refuses to make it more multiplayer friendly, the game dies within 6 months
>>344270392
This. I feel bad for Sean Murray, because in literally every goddamn interview, he has repeated the same idea.
>It's a game where you explore shit
It's the audience that hyped this up beyond reasonable levels.
>>344285429
Which is fine if combat is the focus of the game, and there is actual depth to the dungeon crawling itself i.e. in the combat mechanics.
This game is focused on exploration and the combat looks painfully mediocre. I just don't see anything interesting about walking around a bunch of cookie cutter planets that are all slightly different but still exactly the same.
>>344285616
>Designed
All of the assets are designed in a game. Procedural generation allows assets to be randomized. You can't expect a game with 18 quintillion planets to have each planet be 'hand-crafted', right down to the rotation and placement of stones.
>>344285680
Your post in a nutshell:
>muh multiplayer
>>344269380
I'm optimistic and i think this game will be good.
I already pre ordered on Steam, if it's a bad game i'll just ask for a refund, simple as that, i'm not even on hype
>>344285410
Hello

shilling

game
I

:^)
>>344286103
But it already is multiplayer dipshit. You all share the same world. There are multiple players. A huge portion of people interested in this game are just asking that it be accommodated better, being able to find friends at the very least, maybe a hub where players can congregate. And every single time it's brought up all we hear is "muh artistic vision". Art doesn't sell games, people have to be compelled to play them, and a huge number of people are saying they're not interested in wandering from planet to planet on their own, but they might be interested if it was easier to play with the other people who are already in this game anyway as it's already multiplayer.
If he keeps on like this he's going to end up with essentially vanilla, single player Minecraft, with no creative mode, and no tasks to accomplish (like the Ender Dragon, Wither etc)
>>344285429
Games have been like this for as long as they've existed.
And of fucking course every game looks the same when you simplify it enough.
>>344285924
of course not. which is why the bigger a map, the worse the game generally is.

There is a task: Go to the center of the universe. And so what if people don't want to do things on their own? There are other games where you can do things with your shitty friends. It'd be nice to have some good singleplayer games for once without half-assed multiplayer.

A dev should never, ever being saying "buy a different game". I'm not saying every game has to accommodate every conceivable gameplay mechanic, they dont all have to be FPS and RPG, and so on, but if you have a fucking multi player game, and people say "can you make it easier to play with friends and other people who are playing this multiplayer game", why the ever loving fuck would you tell them to buy a different game?

Because they're making the game they want to make, and are being decent people in telling someone they probably wouldn't enjoy their game all that much if something different is what the consumer is looking for?

Game went gold, but that doesn't mean they won't already start working on oncoming patches for the game, along with continuing to work on the general logistics of a game launch
They probably would take a few days off just for a small break though, given that they've been crunching for the last half-year I bet. Wouldn't figure they'd want to spend that free time on more work for the game

>>344287064
Know why I say that? Because NMS is a new IP. This is something they want to do, and it's an entirely new game. They want to show it off the way THEY want to. Now, if this were a sequel and they didn't pander to the original userbase, then you'd have an argument. But that isn't the case.

Jesus you people are stupid. It's already a fucking MMO. Every single player who play this game is playing the exact same world, they can run into each other in this world. It is not a single player game, it is a multi player, and people have asked that it be easier to find and play with friends in this multiplayer game, and the devs have told them to go fuck themselves.

but that's wrong, you can't even interact with other players
>>344288886
>but that's wrong, you can't even interact with other players
No shit, because they're specifically trying to make it seem more like a single player by not identifying other players to you and not allowing you to directly communicate. You don't even have to change that aspect of the game, if they only let people find their friends, people could still use Discord or Team Speak to communicate with their friends an co-operate.
There are still other people playing the exact same world as you. If i remember correctly he was even particularly unclear about whether you could attack other players, because you can attack NPC ships, and isn't the entire point of not identifying other players supposed to make them look like NPCs?
Regardless, it is still objectively a multiplayer game. Multiple players all share and interact with the exact same world at the exact same time. It's just heavily crippled by the obsession that this is something you have to experience alone, rather than listening to the thousands of potential players who just want to be able to find their friends.
If you have people who want to create a community around your game, insisting on not tainting your artistic vision will kill the game

Other players appear as phantoms, you cannot interact with them at all, the only multiplayer aspect is that you can share your discoveries and that is about it.
>>344289790
>Other players appear as phantoms, you cannot interact with them at all
Source? All I've heard is that they don't appear any differents than the NPC ships, there's no special icon popping up or anything
>>344289612
>I KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE GAME BETTER
Point me to where I've said that?
All I'm saying is a huge part of the potential player base has made a fucking minuscule request that it be possible for the to find their friends and play together. And the devs are obsessed with some artistic vision that you've got to experience this giant universe on your own otherwise you're not playing how they want you to.
You don't have to know anything about anything to see that it's going to fucking hinder them to refuse such a simple request because "muh artistic vision"
>>344289960
>All I'm saying is a huge part of the potential player base has made a fucking minuscule request that it be possible for the to find their friends and play together
Make them buy SC or Elite then.
>minuscule request
Yeah I'm sure the dev already has the whole system coded, he just has to check the little box called "multiplayer" and it'll be done. That's how game development work, right?
>>344289790
>Other players appear as phantoms, you cannot interact with them at all
This would have been a good response to what I said about whether you could attack other plaer, but how does that affect playing with friends and using Discord and Team Speak? You're still working with the exact same world, if you played alongside someone else, it doesnt matter whether you can interact with them, you can still tell each other where there's resources, presumably you can drop stuff if your inventory is full, so you can probably trade items that way
But either way, what this anon says >>344289902

Are you retarded? How many fucking times does this need to be said? IT'S ALREADY A MULTI PLAYER GAME. MULTIPLE PLAYERS SHARE THE EXACT SAME WORLD AND INTERACT WITH IT AT THE SAME TIME.
All that is being requested is a way to find where you friends are, and maybe, fucking MAYBE a way to communicate with other players. They're not asking for the moon.
>>344271349
Fuck right the hell off, reddit scum.
>multiplayer
You morons the server limits it to one person and its temporary. You physically cannot travel together or meet other specific players.
This is fucking basic as shit stuff he talked about months and months ago. Learn how to google. No fucking wonder he removed MP from the games steam page you morons cant listen and assume things are as picture perfect in your head rather than based in reality.

Didn't they say they'll have a system like that, not really a chat system but akin to postcards or something similar?
Remind me again why the community of a game not out yet are already asking the devs to change things that they don't even know if or how they're in the game?
>>344290454
>You physically cannot travel together or meet other specific players.
Objectively false. It's been specifically said that you could pass other players and not even know because they won't be marked as other players, they'll appear to be NPCs. You're in the same world, if you know someone else if going to a certain place, you can also go to the same place.
>>344287798
Thats not how the game works at all
Its not 1 world like WoW. Its like having an algorithm that says where everything goes, and everyone has the same algorithm but the game worlds are separate. The only thing you can do is ghost in and name shit.

Have you not been following this at all? The devs have repeatedly, outright said they are not including anyway to play with friends, because that's not how he wants you to experience the game
http://nerdist.com/no-mans-sky-7-things-you-didnt-know/
>YOU WILL NEVER PLAY THIS GAME WITH YOUR FRIENDS
>While No Man’s Sky is certainly a shared experience that multiple people will take part in, the chances of players actually playing the game together, competitively or cooperatively, is “zero.” Don’t expect to be exploring these planets with a party of more than one person. Sean Murray stated that 99% of the game’s solar system will go untouched by each single player, making the prospect of bumping into anyone else highly unlikely.
>No Man’s Sky is still a shared experience, however, so you won’t feel completely alone in the universe. “If two players go to the same place, they’ll see exactly the same thing,” stated Murray during his presentation. Players will stumble upon planets that others have already discovered and notice things like human-made distortions in the planet’s structure or renaming of the planet’s indigenous creatures—a feature that’s sure to get abused by the obscene minds of the Internet. This really encourages exploration. Just like our most esteemed astronomers, you will be impelled to confirm the existence of life on other planets.
>>344290832
He was more than clear than the multiplayer wasn't a focus of the game and that you shouldn't buy the game on false expectations

Cooperative and competitive play is possible, just HIGHLY improbably due to the size of the solar system. You can meet players, just you probably wont.

Please. Point out how im the retard when you have no source proving anyone wrong and refered to a source proving yourself wrong.
>>344291478
Thats not what hes said ever said idiot. Hes specifically mentioned how even if you got near each other you would not be able to sustain persistance because its handled by the server and people drop in and out all the time. No more replies for you, you're literally braindead.
It will be boring.
I don't know how bad it is, but I can already tell it will be boring.
It's literally a game for normal people, not video game enthusiasts. It was shilled on talk shows for a reason. They know their game won't do well under real critique so they are marketing the game for the average Joe. This way critics won't go hard on it because they don't want to risk being nerdy or controversial or "a hater".
It's brilliant marketing. The average Joe will play the game a day or a week and then stop and be satisfied. They aren't looking for a wholesome experience but a quick Happy Meal.
That's what No Man's Sky will be. A Happy Meal that will disappoint all of us and it will become another shit posting tool for anons who praise it just to trigger anons.

So the opinions of 4chan and that's it? I'm assuming you'd list standard review sites under the normie garbage banner since most of the people who work at those are "normal people"
From all of these articles and interviews, it's clear that the dev is just refusing to outright state that there isn't multiplayer. It seems that every time a question is brought up he'll say that it's "highly improbable that two people will be in the same space at the same time" or "that's not what the game is about" or "multiplayer isn't a focus of the game". That's why all the confusion is there. Because the guy won't just answer yes or no. All he needs to say is "No, there is no multiplayer."
>>344292784
He won't ever say that because if he does I can guarantee a large amount of the playerbase will refund pre orders because there is no multiplayer
>>344292186
What the fuck are you trying to say retard? Aren't you straw manning a little too hard? Could you possibly be one of those low lives who writes those god awful shitty reviews that are sponsored and paid for?
In no way did I imply that people who aren't video "gamers" are normal. Normal as in the average Joe fucking retard who watches talk shows and owns maybe 1 game on his Xbox One normal.
Are you retarded and don't know the term "Average Joe"? Are you this fucking desperate for a straw man?

You had me going until you named a specific game you fucking mongoloid. No one even talks about that garbage.
>>344285410
no, that is what they initially said. they LITERALLY FUCKING SAID within the last 2-3 months that there would be NO MULTIPLAYER. No player interaction. No PVP. No meetups. No .0001% chance of meeting someone. It's a flat 0. The game isn't online for any reason other than the naming of things.
>>344294246
No, you're retarded. The game has multiplayer. A simple google search will show you this.
THERE IS MULTIPLAYER. There is player interaction and PVP if you're lucky enough to actually meet someone. It's not a flat zero.
You're seriously a troll.

Can't wait to play some multiplayer in this game!
>>344295284
>There is multiplayer if you are lucky enough to meet someone
Anyone have that interview with one of the devs that went something like:
>Can I play with friends?
The universe is so big, it's unlikely you'll ever see them!
>But will we be able to cooperate or fight if we do?
That's not the focus of the game
>If a friend and I go to the same planet at the same time and stand in the same spot, will we see each other?
No
The dude had to ask the same question 3 fucking times before he got a straight answer.
>>344297178
thats the one im talking about. i dont remember what site it was on, but i dont think it was a big one like IGN or gamespot. maybe shitaku?
A game comes out that you want to play, but it seems to cost too much money.
Do you:
[ ] Buy it anyway, because you loved Freelancer and honestly it's definitely going to be better than Freelancer.
[ ] Not buy it, because it's too much money
[ ] Pirate it
[x] Bitch and moan about it on the internet like a whiny little baby
Whenever I have doubts about this game I just rewatch this trailer, and the hype is automatically back.

>>344297750
Seriously just play Wander. It is below 30 and you can play with friends. They are the same game
>>344296446
The game is exactly what I expect. A mostly single-player experience in a universe filled with other players so far away that I will likely not see them.
>>344298131
What? are you actually talking about this shit?
>>344298653
Yup. Exactly the same thing as No Man's Sky
>>344298242
dont forget the object is to get to the center of the universe :^) gonna be weird when everyones at the center of the universe and no one sees eachother, huh
I think it's a cute idea for a ~15 dorrar game.
>>344271041
Seconding this
The devs have never said any of the shit the community is saying- people are holding it up to things it never pretended to be.
That being said, 60 is a pretty high price point. I thought it was gonna be lower.

It feels like people generate hype and latch on the games as a passtime. As if riding the hype train is what's fun for them. Playing the game after it comes out is the lesser priority.

>I doubt it even needs to sell 50k to make its money back
not good at maths are you.
13 people working average hours for min wage exceeds 50k in a year and they have been working for at least 4 years on it.
then manufacturing, net expenses etc.
costs a lot of money to produce.
So is this game one of those "wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle" deals?
As long as you remember it's still an indie game
Either don't expect it to be AAA level. Like grand scale indie game, but not small scale AAA.
>>344301542
Depends what you consider depth, what your priorities are. I doubt there's going to be more than 1-200 unique upgrades you can make to your ship and character, for example, but I could be surprised.
Are there classes and a progression system at all?
