>LOL /v/ ISNT ONE PERSON
It happened on Dude sex HR, DOOM and soon No Man's Sky
Because everything is shit until proven otherwise.
>>345474927
How many countless games did /v/ call being shit, and when they were released they were actually shit?
Most of them.
But /v/ is not one person.
All three are shit games, what's your point?
The people who think Dude Sex & D44m are good haven't even played the first games.
>>345475105
>Most of them.
We're talking about a game that has promising gameplay and a unique mechanic
>m-muh generated planets
Everything is generated, Fetch quests, rehashed enemies with a different color, attacks with an extra swing, places that have an extra window etc. many games do that
what makes NMS different is that they are fucking emulating an exploration game with planets that is almost the size of an actual planet
The full reason why Post-TOR /v/ calls it shit is because its popular, End of storyP.S TOR is a shit example of a failure, Evolve was a better example

Can I ask what actual gameplay is out for this videogame?
I don't want more trailers of people wandering aimlessly in its rainbow environments, I want to actually see the many interactions people claim can be done. So far, it just sounds like overhype bullshit since the substance has not been shown, and alarm bells were ringing from the fact there's not yet been a public demo available
>the game's only just complete!!
So? Early beta demos at E3 etc. are very common; or, at least, they used to be until morons ate the hype alone that they became almost entirely dropped.
Woah 3 games in 5 years /v/ BTFO man....
>>345475965
The game is a fucking exploration simulator, not a shooty dooty game what the hell did you expect?
This is for people who likes space exploration, that's fucking it, if you dont like it go ahead and play something else
>>345474927
this makes me fap fap fap
>>345474927
>Game is released and turns out to be good
when did that happen?
>>345474927
>underage kid wasn't around for Spore and wonders why people on /v/ are so critical of this game.
NU
Is this really the hill you wanna die on?
>>345476092
And yet whilst they claim theres billions of unique planets, they've shown only around 10 and those few all look like very similar colourful forest+mountainous planetoids. If exploration is their biggest selling point, why do the trailers barely show it off? A supercut showing all sorts if combinations with varued terrain would be nice.
>>345474927
>>LOL /v/ ISNT ONE PERSON
You're implying it is? You think No Man's Sky will be shit? Fuck off.
>>345475672
tor is more iconic, no one really cared about evolve to begin with
>>345476351
>why do the trailers barely show it off
Mistakes can be made you know?
DOOM didnt show alot of SP gameplay and released a brokem MP as a beta/demo and look how the game turned out?
>>345476092
than play space engine, you are not forced to gather/trade resources, you can enjoy exploration without limitations, and planets are way better for explorations too
So if I go down on a planet and spend a week building some fortress, then decide to leave the planet...it just gets erased?
>>345476685
>and look how the game turned out?
Incredibly mediocre (yet still serviceable)?
Gee, you sure proved me wrong there.
If everyone starts in a random spot in this universe, how likely is it that you'll run into someone else that's a real person?
Are they doing something to set up major hub points for players?
>>345476782
I wanna know this too before I buy it.
>>345474927
>/v/ calls it shit
But /v/ isn't one person, the threads have been 50/50
>>345476860
i think but it could just an excuse to say there's no multiplayer
still getting the game tho
>>345476927
Yes but the planets are extremely big and moving from one to another will be necessary if you want new terrains and atmosphere
>>345476241
That's such a bizarre expression. Are arguments fatal? If I commit to one stance and defend it, does that somehow mean I can't also hold other beliefs to defend?
>>345476685
no one is talking about doom anymore, game is mediocre at best
>>345476782
It'd have to, if there's truly as many planets as they claim then there's no way those planets would each be able to store any form of progress - the storage that'd take to pull off would be insane, even with heavy file compression. This is part of the reason why I'm extremely skeptical over the hype. That and >>345475965 and >>345476351
All of which are points that can't be refuted as the information on this game to counter it simply does not exist, despite the game being complete and ready to ship - yet people still make these threads daily saying "hurr why all the skepticism?"
Every planet I've seen so far looks pretty rural...are there going to be any planets that have major cities on them...like major cities from other alien species or something
>>345475672
>Everything is generated, Fetch quests, rehashed enemies with a different color, attacks with an extra swing, places that have an extra window etc. many games do that
Because other games have sloppy design, No Man's Sky having a lot of sloppy design is alright?
>>345476239

>>345475672
So basically, it's unique because it has big maps?

This is going to be another Spore. This is another case of "you see that mountain?".
This is Peter Molyneux level of bullshit.

A way to designate a single planet to save all its contents like buildings would solve everything surely
>>345474927
After everyone played the leak of DXHR everyone here expected it to be good, what are you talking about?
>>345477253
no, devs confirmed that theres no save function at all, and they will never add it
>>345477336

it didn't promise much
now if it does what people expect of it...
>>345474927
ALWAYS go for the opposite of the vocal majority on /v/.
>>345475105
Maybe 5% top ?
I really want this game and I want it to be successful but I can't ignore that they've hardly shown any particularly good features so far.
Plus is procedural generation, it doesn't have the best track record of being successful.
Then there's the issue of what to do I'm the game. I'm extremely self motivated so I don't personally need to have any assigned objectives, and I like that. But others may not and feel like it's directionless, and I can't blame them.
Definitely a weird case of either they didn't showcase all of its features and kept vague to genuinely provide novelty, or they aren't saying anything because they legitimately don't have anything to show.
>>345477336
You will get infinite content sure. You remember how Skyrim did infinite quests? Expect the same level of depth and variety.
Reskined npcs and maps. Same items with slightly different stats (like weapons in borderlands)
Random generated content isn't new. What isn't also new is how shitty and terrible this style of game is and what is trying to do.
Enjoy your bland, watered down version of Minecraft with prettier graphics. Maybe the devs will make another shitty, bland game for gullible idiots like yourself.
That's what this industry needs. More overrated, shallow crap.
>>345475672
the people who are hyped for No Man's Sky agreed with this post, the people who think it will be shit didn't.

>>345474927
I bought it, but there is a good chance it'll be shit overall
at $60 at least
>>345477569
lol, its been said many times there's a save feature. Why do most people that don't like the game just make shit up?
>>345477359
Most of those look like they're from the same planet...
>>345477276
First trailer is more wandering around, but the second one does have me intrigued a bit more with the shootan gameplay ( I could swear it was confirmed a while ago there'd be no shootan but I guess that's false now). Still, I don't understand the actual aim of the game and the role the player has in its universe. It is just space minecraft?
>>345477640
That's the problem with Elite: Dangerous, though.
It never set out to be EVE or Star Citizen, people just expect those features out of a space game. The ED devs just decided to release their original barely-game and add stuff with expansions rather than leave it in production for 5 years while plebbit fucktards demand every feature under the sun be crammed into the game.
No Man's Sky is a singleplayer game, but the number one thing you'll see people shilling for it over is the multiplayer, which it doesn't seem to really have.
It's going to get shit reviews because people expect it to be something the devs weren't attempting to make.
>>345477074
Progress is saved client side, and even then the only progress it saves it what differs from the original copy of what the algorithms generate. Its not a lot of data, and they have already confirmed this to be how the game works.
>>345477862
VR is going the same route 3D technology went. Death. In gaming at least.
Maybe VR will be more successful in amusement parks.
Where do I apply for the shill job?
Deus ex HR was exactly the opposite, though.
Everyone was hyping the shit out of the demo claiming it was better than the original and then the whole game was fucking garbage for the most part.

You must've been mistaken, no one ever said that as far as I know.
You're being disingenuous with Human Revolution, OP.
People here trashed the game, but once the demo leaked, the game was shown a great level of hope and support, that in the end proved unwarranted given how mediocre it turned out to be, I find.
>>345477852
right about what? that its not a COD clone? we heard that already in million your threads, people that likes exploration will take space engine any time for free and not pay for this half retarded cod clone without any cod features
So it got released? What's the word on multiplayer? Is it actually in, is it not, is it hardly able to be called multiplayer or what? The developers were extremely vague and didn't answer anything.

HMDs have a few important uses. 3D content authoring is one of the biggest, because it's much easier to get a feel for your model, and to interact with it. Existing 3D modeling approaches (e.g., Maya) are pretty terrible, and HMDs are a huge improvement.
A more obscure use is direct visualization of point cloud data, for example from LIDAR.

Yes, because VR is a practical technology to use. The only good practical thing about VR is for small stuff like headtracking, something you already have with fucking webcams.
A full VR game isn't practical considering the amount of this you need and space. Not to mention the price.

I think my biggest gripe with everything I've seen so far (besides the lack of any quests/NPCs) is the fact that all planets shown off so far look more like a single country or continent stretched out as an entire planet - so you'd have a desert planet, then a frozen planet, then a jungle planet, then the rocky mountain reddish planet that seems to crop up all the time. Planets shouldn't always consist of a single climate like that, as it means instead of exploring each planet the average player wouldn't care to since the entire planet is the same climate throughout - you'd instead hop to.the next planet.
Ergo, the planet thing in this game is really a clever disguise for the actual lack of terrain variety.
>>345478323

>>345478984

>>345478721
No, most of /v/ is waiting for the technology to improve and games to release before they give it a go. Which is more reasonable than buying into it now, before it's taken off and before next gen starts within the year.

>>345478536
The terrain generation has more variation than I've seen out of any procedural terrain in games so far. And the different biomes are so you want to see other planets when you get bored of one and travel further to the center where planets and creatures get more weird and dangerous. What's cool about the terrain generation is that it makes it so you actually want to see what's on the planet instead of just oh I've seen a cold planet before this one will be just the same. https://youtu.be/4l1VcqNMfVs
>>345479397
I'm not sure how best to explain this, but there's a few icy planets, and a few jungle-y planets, a few savanna-lookinf g planets, etc.; in that image. Many of them share the same look and could easily be part of the same planet.
I'd edit the pic to match-up the similar planets together as a comparison, but I'm not at a PC right now.
>>345480008
But there planet sized? So just one picture doesn't show all of what's on there. You guys are judging screenshots like its a linear game with jungle levels and ice levels for some reason.
>>345479857
And you think private charities just give up and do nothing when people start donating?
>>345480008
Nah I get your point, but I think what you say would mostly be a problem if thoses planets were too close to each other. It doesn't really matter if three desert planet have a different color scheme/main resource/faction/ecosystem, if you see one after another they'll get old fast. I guess to counteract that it should be possible to mix up the glaaxy so planets which are similar to each other aren't all in the same area.
No Man's Sky color patterns look like shit
Gameplay looks boring af. at least I didn't see anything new or interesting
literally Starbound 3D
"You dock and look around. We don't have time to stay, but this is a highly populated area" (Quote from Colin Campbell on Jun 16, 2015 at 2:44p, Polygon)

No PvP elements or COOP whatsoever.
Elite Dangerous does space piloting and and exploration better.
Dual Universe looks way better than this hyped piece of crap.
>>345480000
I don't think you got my point, I was inferring that they shouldn't have planets dedicated to one biome as a way to pad-out the number of planets in the game, as I don't think it's a good thing that a player has to make a (long) journey to a completely different planet just to see a different climate. I can already imagine that players would have to frequently switch between planets just to get any sort of variety out of it, which seems really daft: why didn't they instead generate a giant planet with all these climates situated in one world? It'd be easier to explore and more interesting thematically. Having each planet a biome of their own is completely arbitrary.
Here's what's going to happen OP.
People are going to say it's shit regardless, the hype and attention assures this. The same thing will happen with FF XV, the new Battlefield, Persona 5 literally any new AAA game will be shitted on by /v/. It doesn't matter how good it is, the vocal minority that already hates the game will continue to hate it post release, and eventually inspire a new wave of posters to hate it aswell. There are threads posted daily about any and every game and why it's shit, what makes you think yours will be spared?
Just play the game and have fun, formulate your own dissapointment or enjoyment.
>>345480538
If every planet was like earth you'd just stay on one planet? And then the creature system would be pointless because you'd never go to others to see different ones in different biomes. And honestly I think it would be better if the planets are all one biome but there's a super rare chance of one being multi biome that would make a lot more sense
>>345480142
Just replace "levels" with "planets".
>>345480294
Maybe I'm wrong anyway and the game will have planets that mix up climate types, I sure hope so as I don't fancy having to regularly fly to a new planet to see new types of terrain. As of now, though, I'm extremely skeptical.
>>345474927
In my defense, Bethesda did a great job in not showing the actual good parts of DOOM, and shoving down our throats all those 'sick glory kills' and that god awful multiplayer up until the game's release, rather than showing a simple, straight to the point, gameplay trailer.
With shit marketing like that, I honestly thought DOOM was going to be a disaster.

Quads speaks truth
>>345480802
But one "level" isn't planet sized? And that's just over simplifying the complex systems in place by saying oh it's just a ice level,which is where the terrain generation comes into to play like I said earlier.
>>345480795
>but there's a super rare chance of one being multi biome that would make a lot more sense
If this was the case I wouldn't even have a problem with this, but theres absolutely no evidence that this can happen. From what I've seen so far there's actually very few climate types and.they don't seem to ever mix together. It's for this reason that I suggested having one large planet with all these climates generated on it naturally (but that would take a little extra effort to avoid a desert aside a tundra so ime guessing that's why they made each climate a separate planet...).
>but look at how many games that /v/ said they'll be shit actually turned out to be shit
If you call everything shit, no fucking wonder something will actually turn out to be shit.
How about you tell me a game /v/ said that it will be good and it actually was good. Let me answer you: 0. Zero. Nada.

How do you know the journey is long?
>It'd be easier to explore and more interesting thematically
That's your opinion but really, one planet is more "interesting thematically" than 10 fucktillion? I think the dev gave the reasoning that it encouraged players to move around more, so they can land on a planet, and once they've explored it a bit they can know what it is.
Honestly it doesn't bother me because the game is already a step away from "generic grey rock" msot space games have instead of planet, but I don't think it can nail multiple biomes per planet in a way that doesn't make more planet looks eventually the same.

Having an entire ice planet instead of your typical ice level doesn't mean shit if it lacks the substance and interactivity to justify that size. So far, all we know exists on any of all these planets are creatures and the odd non-descript settlement. It's like a tech demo.
>>345480802
>Maybe I'm wrong anyway and the game will have planets that mix up climate types
Don't get your hopes up, planet have one main weather type with sometimes another coming up.

>So far, all we know exists on any of all these planets are creatures and the odd non-descript settlement
Please stop trying to attack a game for not having enough substances if you don't know shit about it. It doesn't help your argument if you have to be corrected on subjects you claim to know.
>>345481057
But hey that's where the exploration comes in. Maybe you would be the first to find a planet like that who knows what the system could create it would be very easy for the devs to do so. With so many planets day 1 your not gonna know all that's in the game and a month in there will still be undiscovered biome types and variations. It's easy to just over simply things by saying there's no variation but it's really a game that isn't easy to sum up in a few hours of playtime. What if day one all you see is toxic planets and it's super hard? Or what if all you find are beach planets and the game is super easy? It's a different experience for each player in that regard and that's why I'm hyped for it. Just watching reviews or gameplay won't do it justice since there's no levels that are exactly the same for each player.

>How do you know the journey is long?
Judging by the trailers already out, it's nothing silly-long but it'd add up and seems like unnecessary padding. At least there's stuff in space to attack/dodge, though.
I agree the terrain structurally is sound, but I personally would prefer if at least some of those planets had more than a single biome - I feel there'd be no.point.in exploring them shortly after landing, as you'd also get a strong impression of how the rest of the planet looks. Hence, I can imagine I'd spend time regularly going to new planets to find something new, instead if sticking around on any if them; just seems a little redundant for it to be this way.

Well, there's artifacts to find, monoliths and stargates, and some planets have caves with differents ecosystems and resources than the surface. If there's water there might be some stuff there too. Then depending on whether it's day or night some animals might comes out or the planet "atmosphere" will change, so it's also worth checking out if you want to catalogues a lot of specie to earn cash.
Of course if the planet's a lifeless desert you just take what you need and move on, but some of the life-bearing planets look cool enough that you might want to stick around a bit.
>>345481995
Yeah he still doesn't know what he's talking about. If the terrain is procedral and different than how would two ice planets be identical and you already know what to expect on each one? and don't you think the devs would know if every ice planet looks the same? That's why there's procedural terrain, and that's not even factoring in the different creatures and npcs weapons and blueprints on each one.

With that level of projection you should become a xenon headlight.
This game really does look shitty though isn't it just mine craft but with a ship to fly around in?
>>345481986
battleborn is not a shit game, multiplayer keep it alive, its just that blizzard made a better one in this genre, nu males doesnt have any multi, it will be a flop day one
It's virtually impossible for this game to be "good" enough to live up to the expectations for what it set out to do. It's just too overly ambitious of a concept that is impossible to fulfill with what we have today
>>345482360
Lemme summarize that guy's incoming response
>I-IT DOESN'T COUNT
>>345478536
Actually before the ice age Earth was more or less the same climate.
Seems like a limp argument considering you can go to other planets with other biomes.

So the main motivator to explore each planet is for collectables, rather than to see new regions of that planet? I don't like the sound of that.
>>345482360
I never said the planets look the same, I said there'd be little reason to explore them once you've already seen that planet's terrain type since each planet appears to only consist of one biome tyoe for the entire planet.
>>345482407
>projection
good one nu male, did your friend with the pink hair tell you that one?
This is what I like to see boys. The shills are starting to over power the shitposters. Dont give up the fight anons not everyone fell for the spore meme hard and cant trust anything ambitious anymore.
>>345482621
My argument wasn't that there was no other climates though, it's that always separating climates to be 1 per planet is really redudant and I feel it'd become unnecessarily tedious to find new biomes as a result.
>>345482756
That's not what I said.
What would having differents regions change? According to you, once you landed your ship in a region tehre's no point in staying, what gives you the impression that having four-five differents regions on a planet will fix that problem? You'll just land four-five times and move on.
>>345482756
They would be a motivator for someone like you to explore who thinks that every planet biome is the same. And planets with the same biome type have can different terrain. Jesus just read the posts above.
>>345479109
>>345478721
>/V/ is a single unified body meme.
But those are good points. For me, it seems like the games so far are minigames or demos. When we get a afew games with alot of content then that'll be something.
I think the only VR game that would be a proper game is the Brookhaven Experiment.

>>345483036
>what gives you the impression that having four-five differents regions on a planet will fix that problem?
Because then you'd have a reason to stay and explore that planet, rather than having to fly to a new one to see those regions. I don't get why this is so hard for you to grasp.
>>345483053
There's no evidence at all that planets have more than one biome, which is what I'm annoyed about as I feel it's really unnecessary to have to visit a different planet to see a different biome.
>>345483557
>I don't get why this is so hard for you to grasp.
it's called being a cucked fanboy
>>345483557
Im talking about the terrain being different on planets with the same biome type. Your either really stupid or shitposting, ill go with shitposting.

>>345483557
What I don't get is, what makes a planet worth exploring if it has five regions instead of one.
If you don't want to stick around for one then why would you for five?
>>345483819
But I'm not.shitposting, I even already acknowledged the terrain itself is very well generated, I was only ticked off by the fact it's 1 biome per planet, as it seems counter-intuitive to me.
I do hope this game is good, I want to be good, especially when the two "major" space games are Elite: Dangerous Bordedom and Scam Citizen.
But I've been ticked one too many times and now it's pretty much shit until proven otherwise.
>>345483557
So essentialy your mad because you have to work to see different biomes instead of them all just being on one planet? And how would that make sense if theres a solar system with 10 planets and they all are like earth with multiple biomes? You just havent thought this through young nigger.
>>345483901
you actually would spend some time EXPLORING this planet, thats the main goal of this game, did you forget?
>>345477474
at this point you can say very little has been promised and some of what the dev said, his own words - are lies
buyer beware
>>345483901
>If you don't want to stick around for one then why would you for five?
To see what other biomes/terrain-types are on the planet?
>>345474927
/v/ isn't one person. Your entire post indicates you really, fundamentally don't get this, despite the fact you're one of the vocal minority of apologists for this game.
>>345484029
But it would get old faster? You wouldnt have to work to see new areas and then by the 3rd planet youd wonder why not just stay on one planet? Defeating the purpose of exploring the universe.
>>345475672

shill it harder and people will begin to believe it's what makes the game good, we'll show those people on /v/
>>345484028
The game is about exploration, yes?
As that's the reason I raised this point, as if the game's about exploring these planets then these planets should have motivators to explore them - a good motivator would be said planets having different climates, even if its just 2 or 3, it'd still give the player a reward for exploring (finding a completely new region of the planet). Instead, you may as well leave shortly after landing and grabbing a few things/seeing the few creatures for that specific biome-planet.
>>345483901
Making more interesting parts of the worlds? I dunno, to make a planet/biome interesting would need many more parts and pieces.
>>345484098
Then try to see if there's caves or how's the life underwater or at night?
>>345484181
it will get boring fast even without this, but it would be more fun for sure
>>345484309
holy fuck im not shilling, i was actually pointing features that are not in the game but would make it better, read whole next time
>>345475105
They call literally every game shit before it's released, and 90% of the time, they're right just by the grace that 90% of games are shit.
If a broken clock is right twice a day, a broken smoke alarm is right almost all the time. Doesn't make it any less of a lemon.
>>345484418
You can do all that in a very short region of a planet.
just fyi
sean is making these threads, well not this one but the one's that read like this tweet
>>345484370
What the fuck are you talking about. The game is about exploration and finding a whole planet with a new biome would be allot bigger or a suprise than just walking around a planet and finding multiple ones. And also, your not factoring that it isnt easy to get from planet to planet as it takes fuel and resources. So your not just teleporting from planet to planet grabbing a few things and then leaving. So when you leave a planet you better be sure youve explored it completely because once you warp away ittl take alot of time just to come back as you'd have to gather resources for the warp again.
That whole argument about biomes is pointless.
Some would prefer if life-bearing planets were more earth-like with deserts, forest and icecaps. That's their opinion and there's nothing wrong with that.
Some would rather keep the planet one-biome only so they can feel like they "compelted" the planet after a while and can now safely remember it as "that ice planet" or "that forest planet".
In the end the discussion is irrelevant because at no point it involve the biomes being interesting or not.
>>345483886
i can see this happening, it actually looks like anti exploring game, all you explore is empty space between planets when you travel
>>345484504
How would you know that the games not even out yet. We have no idea how far away things are spaced on planets
>>345483901
You're not sticking around because there's only one. Walk a mile in every direction from where you've landed and you've probably seen just about everything the planet has to offer. There's little reason to explore further.
People keep saying
>it's a game about EXPLORATION, not at all like your rooty-tooty, point-and-shooty games!
And that's all well and good. But WHY am I exploring, to what end? What is motivating me? Looking at the scenery? That's fun or a little while, but that's not going to keep me busy for hours and hours. We know little about how the systems and mechanics will actually work. How deep is the trading and crafting, what does "exploring" actually entail and what will I be rewarded with beyond the ability to keep exploring? The developers seem to actively avoid showing much of these systems with every demonstration and interview.
>Oh, look, a cave. You can go explore in there, sometimes you need to find shelter.
>But we're not going over there right now.

imagine a proc gen modern art museum where you get to explore 18 quintillion pieces of modern art
>>345484820
We wont know until the game is out. And if planet exploration would get boring to you in a few hours than this isnt the game for you is it? Theres people that play elite all day and theres just about nothing to do on the planets with no life or caves or anything. I think this game will keep its intended buyers entertained
>>345484662
>why do people want it to be a failure
Because a lot of people think it's going to be bad, and it's fun to be right. There's no ulterior motive outside the context of the game here.
>>345484663
Well that's even worse as it'll take a bunch of tedious flying in a barely-populated space to reach the next biome-planet.
>>345477850
DELETE THIS
>>345484871
>you can do all that in a very short region of a planet
Gonna need a source on that one then. And we really wont know till its out because all gameplay we've seen was on unfinished builds where things we're placed close together for demo purposes
> Nu Man's Sky
>>345484703
It's not irrelevant as the latter (planets being 1 biome each) is significantly more tedious as you'd have to refuel and fly to the next planet, instead of continuing to explore the one you're on to find the next biome type.
>>345485040
you're just ignorant and maybe should watch some videos, we've seen footage of the player traveling from one planet to another almost instantly, fly down and land on the planet within mere seconds, and hop right out of the craft
>games not even out yet
is an old and tired argument that doesn't work
you don't need to wait for shit to exit your anus to know that it's shit

>>345474927

kek it's going to be shit
>>345485168
Planets were put closes together so travelling between them wouldn't take too much time, but I doubt what's on thoses planets changed much.
>>345485318
I thought it was an exploration game about exploring all these "unique" literally one-note planets...
>>345485279
He's using the hyperdrive when he does that retard. The exact thing I was trying to get through your thick skull that isnt easy to purchase or craft.
>>345485249
not really considering the planets are very close together and don't take long to travel to
not like it would matter, the same resources exist on most planets, it's not like you will have to travel to one planet for gold an another one for plutonium
which plutonium itself is absurd since it doesn't exist in nature in an mount useful enough to ever find let alone use as fuel
>>345485168
guess what, theres no source, devs are keeping everything top secret, why are you defending it if you dont know either? if devs didnt say that all regions of a planet are unique then its clear for me they they are not, simple as that. this game really is like buying a bag full of shit, and you cant look inside before paying, no thanks
Sean will either end up a liar like Todd or the savior of PC gaming.
>>345485468
so what nu male's beard is about the journey to crafting your hyperdrive now?

>people are hype for mass effect mako: the game
>>345485486
This just raises further fucking questions over why these are separate planets instead of just a few planets or even just 1 giant world. I mean seriously I ask that you sit and think about this for a moment.
>>345485359
The moons are close to the planet. Thats what you shitposters are thinking are planets which shows how uninformed you are.
Any reason at all to buy NMS if I have Elite: Dangerous? Elite seems to have the exploration of NMS and in addition have some gameplay

Why is every single, perfectly legitimate reason to be skeptical met with
>this isnt the game for you
It isn't a "game" for anyone if there's nothing to the GAMEplay. If there truly is little to do beyond looking at stuff and picking up rocks so you can keep looking at stuff and picking up other rocks then the game is not going to be well-received. It's not a matter of it "not being the game for you" it's a matter of it being a shitty game, period.
>>345485547
I'm not defending I was saying that we all wont know until the game is out. Then you said thats a poor excuse when its perfectly valid seeing as theres hardly much information thats been revealed.
>>345485318
this game is simply for nobody, all arguments are ending with this sentence, this is literally the first game that uses it at all, no other shills will say that their game is not for you, wtf are you doing with your life sean?
>>345474927
The game isn't available to the public yet.
fucking lol at people actually literally really paying $60 DOLLARS for this """"""game""""""
>>345485780
So let me get this straight - It's a game about exploration, yet each planet only has 1 biome type for the entire planet, and every planet shares common resources. The fuck are you exploring for then?
>>345485815
Because the things you said that would get boring to YOU in a few hours I could see myself doing for hundreds simple as that. Stop projecting your opinions onto everyone.
>>345485607
okay here is what you do in NMS since you need spponfeeding
you travel form planet to planet, name animals and planets and discover artifacts, gathering resources and trade with NPC, learn about NPCs, friend them or kill them
gain a grand theft auto style wanted level and avoid or fight the space police until you go to space jail which just like gta means you respawn
you can build your weapon and your suit and customize your ship
you can't build anything on the ground, it's not like minecraft or starbound
once you find enough info from artifacts you proceed to the center of the universe and fulfill the story line which consist mainly of discovering said artifacts
you get to the center of the universe, other payers aren't there because multiplayer was a lie
