>few weeks left until we can explore literally billions of galaxies with near infinite possibilities
So fucking hype
Glad you're excited, hope you have a fun time.
>>334909838
Does this game has multiplayer , if not exploring planets will get very fast boring.
I haven't really followed any recent development of this game, but from what I've last seen, it's basically just an exploration game where immersing yourself is the entire point, no?
I mean does it even have a gameplay loop here? An objective? Combat? Crafting? Because if it's just another "you're supposed to appreciate the scenery" walking sim then fuck that.
But the galaxies and planets are completely empty, right? This is like the dream game for people who defend the Mako in ME1
>>334909907
3d starbound, nothing more.
>nearly a decade ago we were exploring literally billions of galaxies with near infinite possibilities
ah the memories
>>334909885
Yes, but first you must craft a bow first by banging on some trees and rocks for 5 minutes.
>>334909838
>What is space engine?
retard.
>few weeks left until we can explore a billion different planets that are almost indentical but with slight colour and biome variations
>>334909938
The gimmick is that the plants have "procederally generated" wildlife and alien NPCs you can talk to and trade with.
How that actually works has yet to be seen. But trust me it's going to be amazing so fucking hype you should buy it.
>>334909990
so me and my friend can travel to the same planet and kill aliens ?
Like a CO-OP?
>>334909976
Spore space stage could've been fun (if you didn't get into the hype before release) but it was so fucking annoying that you had to visit all your planets to get the spice or whatever it was called instead of some automatic collection
In general, your entire empire was way too focused around your one dude
This is going to be the next Spore right?
>>334909838
Galaxies? I thought you only get to explore planets
>>334909838
>few weeks
You mean 2 months
This game is $60?

>And it's free
I wouldn't mind a better look at a planet's surface though.
Just has tectonics and water so far. Would be neat to add in flora and fauna as well.
>>334910127
Which are located in galaxies?!
>>334910835
This is actually too autismal for me
I don't mind spreadsheets but it's silly that you have to design every component yourself and if you make a slight mistake in the configuration, your ship is basically useless
>>334911313
I can understand that.
Took me a good 6 or so tries to get a successful missile launch and for it to actually do something.
But god damn, did it feel good.
Then again I'm used to failure iteration from fucking up dozens of things in Dwarf Fortress.
>>334909838
>few weeks left until we can explore literally 3 planets and then get bored and quit
>hyped for tech demo
MILLENIAAALS!!
>>334911431
I'll definitely try to get into it more sometime because everything but ship design seems neat
Just gotta read all the tutorials so I don't miss some detail that I could never know about on my own
By the way, what's the point of pre-Newtonian start? It just consists of 30 years of clicking "30 days"

Fuck off with your sarcastic shitposting
>>334910053
you spawn in random places on the edge of a galaxy sized galaxy. Assuming the game would help you navigate to the same planet (every indication is it wont have that functionality), it would still be very time consuming. Like potentially months of playtime, assuming you can spawn on completely opposite sides of the galaxy.
It might even be hard to find your friend when you were both on the same planet.
On top of this, in late interviews Sean seems to imply that even if you were in the same place you would not see each other. Basically it appears that every player is in their own instance of the system or whole game universe and that instance loads in certain changes from a universal server.
In one of the recent gameplay videos you can see the player going to sleep in front of a monolith with two NPC ships in the sky. When he wakes up time has passed, the planet has spun around, it is daytime, the sky has shifted, but those two NPC ships are in the exact same place as before he went to sleep. So the game world is not actually completely persistent.
>>334911920
More like a sandbox editor.
Great for testing stuff like how to shoot missiles since you don't have to wait out the research and construction.
I don't know it's full capacities to be honest, but it's really helpful to fudge the numbers on start to get that nice pre-colonization stuff you were talking about instead of that automated set up.
>>334910053
Nah you can't the game doesn't have coop. The online aspect is just people naming the planets, solar systems, flora and fauna.
If you get to a planet already visited you will probably see animals with DickMcTitties names.
At the game reveal he said the game would have multiplayer, but in the last months he has always avoided the question or saying some bullshit or changing the subject.
If the game had real multiplayer he would have been selling that like pancakes.
>>334909907
it has an objective, combat and crafting.
honestly it gets boring answering the same question every time anyone wants to talk about it so i suggest you look up the recent giant bomb article on it.

Yep. But at least we know that we just go from planet A to planet B and nothing more, Spore was "you can do anything".
>>334912154
That's..... pretty fucking ass, anon
>$67 for a pointless, soulless game
What the fuck is going on.
>>334912154
Yeah, so advanced, the game even terraforms while you are in the planet, oh wait no, it's the fucking pop-in.

the guy was making a joke. he's as cynical about the game as you are. the fact you took it seriously shows you want to shit on this game so bad you're losing perspective.
>>334912093
he said that it has multiplayer but it's really rare to find other players. but when you do you can fly together and walk together and shit like this.
he doesn't want to promote this because people are stupid and would believe you can start together and shit like this.

>You have to be 18 and over to post here
fucking newfag
>>334912294
He was consistent for a long while until lately. In a recent interview when asked directly if you could see other players he dodged the question like three or four times straight while the interviewer kept insisting on getting an answer.
I think you wont be able to see other players, like I pointed out earlier in the thread the game world is not completely persistent so you would have very weird desync issues. You would not see the same ships in the sky, you would not see the same aliens running around, if one of you dug down to a cave it would still be just ground for the other person. If one of you went to sleep in front of a monolith to skip time 12 hours, how would that look to the other player?
>>334912093
He has always said the exact same thing
The system is identical to that of Journey or Dark Souls ghosts. You will very rarely run into people. In that short time the server allows both players to exist in an instance you could interact (limited to just shooting them or following them) but you cant maintain connection, they will just fade out.
The problem is people dont understand this simple ass system and think either 'NO ONLINE' or 'UNIVERSE TOO BIG FOR ONLINE'.
>>334912565
Says the Ackbar shitter
>>334912416
back to raddit
I was more interested in it before I knew more about it. It seems like it's just crafting and exploration which isn't my cup of tea and would get boring really fast. If it ends up at redbox i'm sure i'll rent it. but there's no way i'd pay more than $10 for this.
>>334912460
>Doesn't show a feature because people "maybe" won't get to use it.
>Even when in the demos he clearly teleports at any place.
Sure thing pal.
>>334912294
And you believe it because he said so?
I remember when I thought procedural generation meant infinite possibilities. Unfortunately, I found out for most games it means billions of nothing to see here.
>>334909885
Why would you even want mp fuck of
>>334912384
There's no pattern to those though. This is literally the same guy with the same images and titles
>>334912581
he's not said anything that contradicts it - he's just dodged it because if you lack at any comment thread on any article or video about the game that does concede you can see other players, they're full of shit like 'can't wait to buddy up with my friend and explore the galaxy together' and 'i hope i can build a house and have people come chill with me' and shit.
if people get the impression that it's got any sort of multiplayer support there'll be a huge backlash because it will be fucking. hard. for anyone to make a rendezvous reliably in this game. there isn't even a UI designation when you're right in front of another player.
>>334912718
>Even when in the demos he clearly teleports at any place.
wut
he's the developer he can fukkin use cheats fo this game
even said it in one interview qoute:
"...it would take month to travel there, but because i'm the developer i can do whatever i want to."
Other guy: "...you are literally god ..."
Sean: "yeah..."
>>334909838
You have been able to that for years in Space Engine you retard
>>334912718
yes i believe it because he said so. why would i not?
>>334912604
Again, I have seen every interview with him and I know what he said, and you are pulling info from your ass, he didn't compare it to Journey or Souls games. He said in the reveal and first interviews the game had multiplayer but it would be hard to meet other people.
In the last months he has ALWAYS avoided the question and he always go to "well there is interaction BECAUSE you see things named by other people".
He can teleport in the demos, he could have showed with another player but he has never done it. The game is singleplayer and that's it, the only online aspect is naming things.
>>334909838
Literally a more boring and less powerful version of Elite Dangerous
>>334912871
>>334912718
also there is a hyper drive but the goal is to get to the center of the galaxy so people will meet there.
maybe there is a huge city like coruscant
>>334912871
Are you stupid or just retarded? What I mean is, if he could teleport at any place in the demos, he could teleport 2 players in the same planet and show the coop aspect. He has never done it because the game doesn't have multiplayer.
Stop shilling so hard.
>>334912184
There is more then one galaxy the developer revealed this in the IGN interview. The key to stopping the collison that will end all life in your own galaxy is getting to the centre of the OTHER galaxy and stopping an ancient alien artifact that's emitting deadly radiation/energy
>>334912604
he literally never said that. he said things like "think of it more like a different kind of multiplayer experience, like journey". Thats pretty far from "identical to [...]". He also never said they are implementing shared instances. lately, when asked, he is just pointing out the fact that the chances of running into anyone are so low that it just probably wont happen. And thats of course correct, so why would they implement functionality for an almost impossible occurrence? Even if you were on the same planet, which is just insanely unlikely, the chances of running into each other are still diminishingly small
>>334910053
You can't play with others but it's always online
>>334912960
Yes and all our wishes will be granted.
Fuck off.
>>334912915
> he didn't compare it to Journey or Souls games
he has literally compared it to journey or souls on more than one occasion. first result on google:

>>334912915
Dont care what you think, you are wrong
http://gamerant.com/no-mans-sky-no-multiplayer/
>Murray describes the multiplayer of No Man’s Sky as having all of the online players “flying around with an open lobby,” but since the game world is so huge those players will almost never run into one another. The game is equipped to handle another player or two flying past, but there’s no need to make it capable of handling thousands or even dozens of players on screen at the same time.
>Rather than people actually playing together at the same time, No Man’s Sky‘s multiplayer elements will work in a similar way to those of Dark Souls
>“Just to be really clear… it is not an MMO. All of those questions are leading toward that. There are loads of MMOs out there. People can play those. We want people to be able to get a sense of playing with other people and to see other people and feel like this is a real, live universe.
>“If you want to play a first-person-shooter-sci-fi-run-around-on-a-planet game, play Destiny. It’s a really good game. Go play that. We’re not trying to do that.”
>>334912983
because it's also a part of the game to find out how you look like.
also said in an interview.
if he would shown it a part of the game would be gone.
imagine how awesome it would be after hours of playing to find another player and finally see how you look like.
or he could show it in a 10 min demo...yeah sure
>>334913043
._.
technically starbound offered the same variety of planets
>>334913023
>And thats of course correct, so why would they implement functionality for an almost impossible occurrence?
because the way the game works allows for it. it's actually relatively trivial to do it.

>>334912985
Link? Because I have seen at least 2 ign interviews and I didn't hear anything about that.
He has always said center of the galaxy, or maybe you misunderstood it and he meant that you aren't native to that galaxy but you must travel to the center of the ONLY INGAME galaxy.
But to be honest, at this point I think he is just pulling things out of his ass to justify the 60$ tag and sell as much as he can before the people see the game is Space Engine with a weapon.

>>334913070
>There are loads of MMOs out there.
Are there though? Are there loads of MMOs about traveling the galaxy and exploring? Cause almost every MMO seems to be an RPG focused around combat.
>>334913130
And remember in starbound you would be able to launch orbital strikes from space and destroy planets and use terraform technology and you would do ANYTHING.
>>334913081

i'm laughing so hard right now at the fact that you are STILL calling it a fucking 'walking simulator'.
the whole basis of this game is online. you can play it offline, but the whole idea is to have many players exploring the game in different places at the same time.
>>334913314

You did however prove my point flawlessly. He has described what the multiplayer is like, you're just too stupid to understand it. So hes starting dodging the question because he knows you will never get it.
>>334910095
There needs to be hype for it to be like Spore, I don't think anyone is hyped at all
>>334913521
Not sure, I never played it.
Eve isnt that hard, its just a shit game because of PLEX, the community and the developer pandering to top corps.
>>334913605
That's what I mean by EVE light. A game where you didn't have to worry about the community fucking you over. It would be able exploring a galaxy instead of whatever EVE actually is with all the warfare and space business.

And this is the only post in the entire thread with real info on the game. I don't mind if you are a shill or not, but everything pointed has been showed and I believe you (except the life pod, but I guess you will end in a random near planet or station).
Hello, friends, is it true that in this game ANYTHING is possible, and that in fact you can do ANYTHING? Also, I was wondering if it was made by the same developers as the indie hit-classic-masterpiece Joe Danger?

>>334914001
Well that's good.
Binary system are like a staple in space sims.Still won't touch the game with a 10 foot pole.
This game is on gog and doesn't require internet connection. Just fucking pirate it and see if it's shit. Don't see a problem here.

I thought it didn't release until june
>>334913493

my point is that multiplayer would bring more content to the game which doesn't have that much content to begin with. and don't start with "infinite amount of planets"-bullshit. borderlands tried this and it didn't work.

The whole point of the game is exploration, but it's going to get old extremely fast. Being able to co-op explore the universe and be space pirates with your bros would add a shit ton of content, you're a fucking retard if you deny this
>>334914941
>backpedaling this hard
Its okay kiddo, you're anonymous here you dont have to get so upset people think you're a moron for thinking all games need multiplayer and ones without it are bad.
Just think before you post next time rather than proving you're an idiot.
>>334914709
That sounds like a lot of idea guy talk.
I'd love to see all of it in action though.
But pretty words aren't enough to make be buy it.

>Being able to co-op explore the universe and be space pirates with your bros would add a shit ton of content, you're a fucking retard if you deny this
Then go play SC, ED or Eve.
Stop being a total fucking moron. NMS looks like utter shit but you are a total moron suggesting all games need multiplayer. And stop trying to backpedal and pretend that isnt what you said.

fine, if you want to shill your game so bad that you can't even take a suggestion in mind, that's cool. I still think having fuckloads of online features would bring this game more to life.
see this anon for example.
>>334915010

Yeah you are, having shitty opinions you cant defend and resorting to meme spouting proved it.

>>334915086
DS3 has fuckloads of online features that makes it even more enjoyable. but yes, the game works without online cause it has so much content outside of it.

>adding more is good, why didn't they just add more everything!
>all games are good with online add more!

But seriously, the complete lack of understanding on your part on game design and the fact this is an indie group is just shocking. You would think the people who post on /v/ have some basic level of understand of video games.
You're an idiot, fuck off.
>>334915326
So you posted something irrelevant to my post, I called you out being underage, you meme spouted, and then proceeded to post this shitty poorly formatted and spelled response in an attempt to prove you are not underage only proving you are in fact underage.
>>334915291
and no man's sky don't have much content ?
just look at the recent ign monthly no man's sky series.
you can gather ressources ( already minecraft in it) you can interact with aliens
you can start space wars
you can explore
you can discover
and so on. and playstation showed with anthony(or whatever) that you can go on a killing spree on a planet killing everything thats on there. and that was only a little bit of the game
>>334909976
Fuck man why do you have to bring that up?
>ITT Hypetrain loser defend an unreleased game against people who are frustrated by a lack of content

Spore was one single Galaxy and had extremely limited planet design.
>>334915198
>I still think having fuckloads of online features would bring this game more to life.
Why do idiots like you always flock to /v/. Game development takes time and money, every feature costs time and money.
You cant just fucking add an infinite amount of content to every game. NMS is trying to do its own thing, whether it fails or works is irrelevant, the fact is they, and nor can any other company physically just add what you fucking want ad infinitude with no cost.
If you want a online space game you can play any number of them, there are a shitton of them made for just that.
Stop being stupid.
>>334915410
maybe because i don't speak english we could try how could you response in my language.
and it wasn't irrelevant to your post. you respnd to the guy said that every single game should have multiplayer. and in my opinion it went horribly wrong with elder scrolls online

I would love to see a bug on the first day.
Every player spawns on the same planet and no one is able to fly away from it. A war starts to gather ressources to finally leave this planet.
>>334915634
kek
>>334915328
okay okay. you need to calm down.
first of all, I don't think every game needs online. where did I even say that? I only said NMS needs online. The reason I want more content is that they ask 60 fucking dollars for the game that doesn't really keep me playing more than 5 hours. As far as I've seen, every aspect of the game seems to be extremely shallow or lacking community activity. Sure you can generate 110933034734832 different planets but since it's all from the same seed, they don't really seem to vary from another. Again, borderlands tried this with guns and the thing we only got was around 6-8 different gun types with different stats. That's it. I'm afraid the same will happen to NMS.
>>334915447
>you can interact with aliens
main agrument against the "but the universe is empty", but we all know all the "interaction" will just be a shop menu where you buy the next upgrade
also for some reason: the alien no one has ever seen will fluently speak english
>>334915758
wich is another feature of the game you have to learn their language

you have to watch it.
it shows everything
like interaction with aliens
starting a space war and so on
>>334915447
in minecraft, the game world itself is randomly generated, there isn't that much to exlore since you can't find anything really new. The crafting from different blocks is what keeps you busy. NMS doesn't really have that much of a deep gameplay.
>genuinely hyped and looking forward to this game
>still think 90% of the people that are hyped are fucking retarded and will be horrible disappointed
Seriously, you're all retarded.
>>334915929
around 8:50 you can see the alien
>>334915806
so another menu where you have to:
-bring space archeological tablet : 0/5
>>334915948
okey that is true, but you can find blueprints and craft new upgrades. it doesn't come close to minecraft because you can't build a base or something but it could be fun anyway to find new blueprints and search for ressources to build it
>>334914898
Like what?
>>334910835
What is this game?
>>334916051

it's minecraft with no crafting, biomes are separated with a not-loading screen (just a few seconds where you can't interact with anything and the screen is covered in clouds) where you walk to admire the absolutely alien and new planet (not a regular landscape with a filter)
>>334909885
>>334910053
Yes you can go around shooting things with your friends, but you have to find them first
You start at a random point on the edge of the universe. You have to make your way towards the centre (sort of the main quest of the game) if you want to find other people
>>334909907
The objective is getting to the centre of the universe. You'll only be able to get a ship good enough to do this by playing the game.
>>334916274
18 quintillion planets so for all intents and purposes it is infinite, since it's physically impossible to visit all of them within the space of a lifetime

>>334915860
>>334916139
You meet aliens like pic related within buildings on various planets (and I think on space stations too)
You trade stuff with them (the Korvax pictured here are a race that build ships - the ship that Sean has used in most demos is a Korvax ship)
As is shown in the pic you can learn their language directly from them ("Ask for help learning the alien's language"). Yes there are also stone obelisks on some planets from which you can learn an alien language, but they might be of different, ancient languages, I don't know.

This game is nothing like ED
its a revolution in gaming.
You'll see that new games will go that way and it's only a matter of time when games like GTA or else use this proced. gener. way of creating their games.

>>334918149

We don't really know how the gameplay will really be like. For now it looks bland as fucking hell.
>>334918276
but they already proved this to be true.
it depends on what you think is unique.
like a plant with different colours unique or not?
i would say it is
It is literally just walking about planets and flying about in space. Nothing special and you should de-hype yourselves. You are setting yourself up for a fall.
for a space game they sure aren't implementing any space things. No pulsars, no gas giants, only habitable planets, nothing. Only copies of our solar system with rock habitable planets only
>>334918149
Not him, but everygame i've played in the last 5 years or so that bragged about having a big map has just ended up with a big empty shithole that detracts from everything. Now imagine if the whole games selling feature is "lol the games map is big!" and procedurally generated exists in tonnes of games, spelunky comes to mind, see another thing people don't get is that level design teams exist for a reason,it's a crucial part of games. Shit level design will ruin games and procedural generation/having a computer do it is inheriantly shit and has no CC or forethought.
Hence why big map and procedural generation already exist, and they are both shit so it's hardly revolutionary to double down or combine the two
>>334918358
I do not believe them. I have been lied to too many times by game developers. I will be damned if I let myself be tricked by a smug Irish maths man.

>>334919472
You realize there is a difference between 'unrealistic' and poor fucking job on a planetary generator? Their voxel engine also has severe limitations on planet generation and that's why there are no polar caps, impact craters, volcanoes or simply huge mountain ranges, no distinguishable continents or oceans. It's only minecraft tier boring shit on a spherical surface. The only upside is that it has some life generation going.

Spore was fine if the creature stage was so fucking simple and space stage so fucking annoying. With this at least so far the variation in creatures looks better and in space there is nothing nagging at you to stop what your doing apart from warp fuel with you can mine in almost any system.

Yeah, the same excuse retards were giving to minecraft.

>>334923349
>Will inviting a friend to fly around and explore with you actually be fun?
what gave you the impression you could do that?
>>334923665
This. My hype is in over drive after seeing the latest game play videos. Comfy exploring grinding and upgrading is just what i want.
Space Engine but with more interactivity is what a lot of people have wanted.
Just discovered something in this video, pic related (at around 0:55): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqmJ8k9uBB0
The monoliths are of the same race (Korvax) that you trade with: >>334917070
I thought perhaps the monoliths were from a different, ancient race.
I'm pretty sure there are additional NPC races though because Sean has said how some of them are traders, some explorers, some armourers, etc.

That is a language monolith. Those giant monoliths with the goo floating in the centre are probably the ones that give you co-ordinates to progress the story
>>334923924
If they say infinite possibilities they're 100% shilling.
Boy, the butthurt when this is actually released and people find out they have been played liked fools is going to be something to behold.

They're portals, they jump you from one planet to another.
Watch this video (portal in action at around 0:45): Those giant monoliths with the goo floating in the centre are probably the ones that give you co-ordinates to progress the story
>>334924878
Interesting I wonder if you have to walk back to get your ship or you can call it in from the other planet... which i assume might be on the other side of the galaxy
>>334924878
Oh shit didn't include link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQHb1STYY6M
>>334909838
The game feels like a huge missed oppertunity. The only thing it's really got going for it is the exploration of multiple planets, and the utter basics of rpg elements. I just don't see why this game would be appealing to anybody.
Even if the environments where good looking, that alone is not enough to make a good game.
compare it to gtaV, but without people, quests etc. The only thing you can do is walk around the city or use a couple of cars. Fun for a day perhapes, but it hasn't got any meaningfull features to give the player any incentive to play further.
>>334925071
Yeah you're right, with all the hours you must have played it you must have a rich and deep understanding of the game
>>334909838
holy shit, the people 'hyped' for this game have no fucking basis in reality, this game is one big broken promise waiting to drop.
like, i understand appreciating the aesthetic, i'll give it to them, they've done a great job making the game look like it will be good, but there's not a chance in hell this game will have any depth, or will actually be fun to play.
just fucking think about it for 2 seconds, the most fun games you play are built around a mechanic of some sort, usually the mechanic is unoriginal, sometimes it isn't and how fun the game is usually depends on how that game plays with that mechanic.
spore, was not built on a mechanic, it was built on a premise, and a concept, as was Fable, as was games like Diakatana, Castle in the sky, most of the voxel and survival games, it goes on and on.
games built on a premise, are not fun, games built on a mechanic, are.
but before you cry at me, telling me why NMS is going to fucking amazing and how i'm wrong and autistic, i challenge you to point a mechanic in this game, which actually feels fun to you, and isn't just another warmed-over factoid riddled in 'cool-factor'. here i'll even help you out, here is some nonsense that has nothing to do with gameplay:
>procedurally generated plants
>procedurally generated animals
>fish
>naming shit
>trading (more on this in a second)
>the center of the galaxy
>but the center of the galaxy is the whole crux of the game!
that's not a mechanic, that's not fun, that's just an ending, GETTING there has to be fun, or there's no fucking point. I would have to enjoy going to new planets, searching for some nonsense currency, upgrading my ship and repeating in order for the center of the galaxy to hold any weight or meaning.
trading. don't even fucking start, every single goddamn space game has trading and almost all of them will do them better than this game. how can i say this? (cont)
>>334925606
ow that's crahaazy!
come on dude, every video that is shown points to the fact that the whole game is based around exploring. Real good and all, but games are not real life. Exploring is just a means to an end, and the way they till thusfar have presented the concept, is just like clash of clans, where instead you upgrade to upgrade further, you explore to explore further. But for what goal? It just feels like you could do a more interesting thing with such a scale.
>>334909838
>galaxies
>>334919138
>>334919096
>>334912985
Really guys? The goal is the center of the UNIVERSE of no man's sky. There are shit tons of galaxies, and even more planets on top of that.
>>334926474
Are you retarded or something? Universe can't have a center. Your goal is the center of galaxy like in Spore. Even if there are multiple galaxies there is no point in it since the experience will be the same in all of them.
>>334926250
the whole point to NMS is to explore these graphically amazing, unique planets, right? why would they put any thought into trading? plus, why would you want to trade in a game like this when the whole point is to explore? it's just a boring by the books space-game mechanic, stapled on to make the game feel like it has depth.
so...
>what games do YOU like anon, so i can shit on those!
yeah, let's talk about games that actually do somethings right. or at least, some better alternatives.
we have kerbal space program, just to start, which covers you space-exploration, your ship building, and upgrading, and going to unique rocks and walking around.
>but i want to actually explore a vast space! i want a galaxy!
oh, ok, well there's a few games that do this, like Elite: Dangerous, which by the way, also lets you name shit if you care enough, and explore a galaxy of different colored rocks, shit, now if you spend more money, you can even LAND on those rocks! and although Elite is also a steaming pile of shit, it does do trading right, with actual depth, so, there's that covered.
>but i want to land on planets and shoot stuff with my pew pew laser beam!
spore, or spore galaxies, if you want.
>but that game is AWFUL! i want a good game which has space exploration, landing on planets, shooting things with my pew pew laser gun, naming shit, and PLANTS!
well, you fucking got me, it's easy to want a game that does absolutely everything, but unfortunately, making a game about any one of those things, takes a lot of time and effort, that's why most games only tackle one thing, and try and do it right. What YOU want, is a pipe-dream, and in the end it will either feel empty, and disappointing, or it simply won't be fun.
sorry to burst your fucking bubble.
>>334909838
Im so sorry for you OP, make sure to get your refund before you hit 2 hours
>>334927086
>not pirating it
>not wanting to relax with a beer, listen to podcasts and explore endless galaxies
It's almost like you don't know how to chill.
>>334926806
>Universes can't have a center
It's like this game is based on real life or something!
Whatever it is called, there is ONE center of the entire map of this game. Go watch any video showing the galactic map and there is only ONE astonishingly bright light, that's the center. There could be other centers of different galaxies but they won't mean shit. Only the overarching center of the UNIVERSE will have meaning.
>>334919483
but this doesn't mean there is unlimited amounts of stuff to do.
please be bait.
you're bait?
>there is only ONE astonishingly bright light, that's the center
Of the fucking galaxy you are in, retard.
>>334927215
Except that you will be exploring the same recolored micro planet with creatures from spore on it and not endless galaxies.
>>334927571
>implying that most real planets aren't made up of the same shit earth is
Time to end all the space programs I guess.
To all shitposters: watch the vid fully and tell me that every planet looks the same just recolored http://youtu.be/-h5vwfEaONg
>>334927425
So there are more galaxies inside the galaxy you are in? Cause this game consists of multiple galaxies. Retard. It goes planet<solar system < galaxy < universe. Learn something why don't you?
>>334927750
>Time to end all the space programs I guess.
Nigga are you fucking serious?
Why are the fans of this game so retarded?
>>334927787
Wow, so there are like 5 biomes that will be even have the same colors everywhere. That totally changes everything!
>>334927884
You're the retarded one...yet you're too stupid to see it.
>>334927854
They never showed the fucking universe map. Every footage was inside the same galaxy and they were only talking about reaching it's center. How stupid you can be?
Lost all hype when it became $60
>>334928016
You gotta shitpost better than that cmon
>>334928147
>You're the retarded one...yet you're too stupid to see it.
What are you five? This is some kindergarten shit here.
>>334926474
>>334926806
>>334927278
Based on what he's said I think you're heading for the centre of the GALAXY, but there are multiple galaxies. So I think once you get to the centre it's possible you could warp to another galaxy. We'll see.
>>334926945
What game is this?
>>334927787
the "snake rocks" is original
otherwise it's just a regular landscape with a color filter
>>334928191
Why would they show a map of the universes? It would be one fucking dot you fucking dumbass. The galactic map, ie, map of galaxies, shows all of the galaxies. What do galaxies reside in, a universe maybe? Jesus Christ stop trying? You're making yourself look like an idiot
>>334928367
exactly.
>>334909838
Anon, don't get too hyped, it will hurt even more when game turns outjust okayand notfucking awesomecautious optimismis best way to go with most new releases
>>334928324
Not for this "game" he doesn't.
It's been almost three yeas since this game was unveiled, yet it doesn't actually see to feature anything more than:
>Go to planet.
>Mine maybe.
>Fight I guess
>Explore for no real reason.
>Go to next planet.
>Repeat.
>>334924414
What would you prefer
A brand new and emaculate 1 dollarbill? or a dirty 100dollarbill
>>334928591
As long as you admit one is different it's fine. With billions of planets and in the trailer they showed like 10. If 1 out of 10 isn't a recolor the odds work out with the scale of game their building.

The only multiplater is that you get to see animals and planets that were named by other players.
The devs said this in the 21 minutes of "gameplay" video. I don't know why people are claiming you can play with your friends.
>>334910042
This is my fear
But I am optimistic, I've pre-ordered
>>334929016
the problem is: every time everyone say "billions of planets, so much, look at this, everything is different"
the problam with procedualy generated stuff is that, in less than 5 hours you can see the pattern and since everything is a tad different, it won't even matter in the end
when people want "difference" it's real difference, even 2 planets with the same ecosystem would be totally different if one of them works only with cliffs, because the progression would be different
for now everything sounds like a visual difference, but in the end it's just hills
>>334929085
Yet here we are with the Darksouls-tier defense force, and the game isn't even out. No one knows wtf there is to do other than monotonous nonsense and a single vague goal.
>>334928829
This is why this game will succeed. The fact that you know so little shows that you haven't researched it at all. The people that are intersected in it will find out more about it like factions, procedural music,creature noises,weapons,ships, ect. People want to simplify it by saying there's nothing to do but it's the same for all games these days. What do you do in dark souls besides kill bosses and kill people in multiplayer? I'm just ready for a game that can't be spoiled in a day or have shitty lets players fucking around with their friends online
>>334929102
>I don't know why people are claiming you can play with your friends.
Because it's a feature the devs talked about a long time ago. Dunno if they dropped it since then or just want people to actually be surprised when they see someone else.
>>334929504
>No one knows wtf there is to do other than monotonous nonsense and a single vague goal
>He thinks everyone is as braindead as he is and can't into google
Lol
>>334929396
How can you know they are all the same if theirs billions? Your assuming because it would be easier to say their all the same than to play the game when it comes out and see for your self. It's a game where finally just watching videos won't tell the full story.
FYI the kind of intelligently created procedural generated worlds won't exist until the average home computer is as powerful as IBM watson.
>>334929102
Im just taking a guess here and im thinking its target audience is that group of people that play Early Acess Open World Crafting games. Devs want players to THINK its the next big one and players WANT to imagine it is that game all evidence aside.
>>334909838
Sean Murray is losing grip on his fandom 2 months before release due to his "it has to be my way" design principle.
He thought he had the only game in town and then suddenly Planet Nomads, Space Engineers, and a couple others stepped up their game and suddenly its "hey you want a release date? sure, hows 4 months sound? Here's some new gameplay videos"
When this game flops due to no MP and limited intractability I'm going to stand over the corpse of this game and laugh.
>>334909838
>few weeks until we can explore the same randomly placed couple of elements over and over again.
Yeah....
>>334929773
because for now it's the only thing we've seen, even the water planets are just underwater hills

Of course I'm looking forward to it
Not because I want to play it of course
Just because I want to lap of the tears of disappointment of the people who actually wanted to play it and have fun
I can already hear the deflection
>I-I just wanted a space hiking simulator anyways!
>mfw other people's misfortune
>>334909885
Game devs said no, not for any good reason either, just "trust me bro, you wont want to anyways". Kinda like GTA in first person mode, it took someone fucking modding IV and V to get rockstar's attention.
Murray (game dev) will stand his ground because he thinks its "his vision".
So in a game where you can explore the entire universe. Are you able to play as something besides human?
>>334922860
>I don't know what this game is or what I'm talking about
at least put some effort and research into your shitposting, ya ugly fat faggot
>>334930282
Hence why I said we have to wait till the game comes out. The community will have to see if every planet has barely any difference or not. It's kinda sad the state of gaming where people aren't excited for a game this ambitious cause they've been shit on by so many other developers time and time again. Everyone's cynical but yet no ones playing games that actually try something new

>>334931083
there is nothing to be disappointed about
anyone who isn't a fucking idiot can plainly see what this game is and what it offers by now. the only way you'd be able to get disappointed at this point is having irrational expectations for shit that's either not been even implied or shit that's been downright denied

Now i understand whi i thought that clothes like that are totally retarded.
On vegetta looks decent, might be cool.
>>334928723
I agree with cautious optimism but there are so many people in this thread who act like they've played the whole thing and it was shit
People are saying "HURR WHAT DO YOU EVEN DO" without even listening to people who are trying to explain the game. Or watching any of the NUMEROUS videos that Sean Murray has done.
It's obviously not an FPS so anyone expecting that will be disappointed, but it's also not just "lol it's a sandbox and just travel around until you get bored". There's an objective. There's stories to discover, items to acquire, the centre of the galaxy to reach.
So yes, cautious optimism. Informed cautious optimism. Rather than just slagging this game off for no reason like some people seem to be doing. Of course we should remember this game is developed by about 10 people rather than 800. From what I've seen so far, I'm personally surprised how much they've done given the small number of people. But again that's another reason to reign in expectations, because this is essentially a small indie game (just with big ambitions).
Why are people here so desperate for this game to fail?
>>334931395
I think you're the only person in this thread with a brain cell
It's a shame how dumb this fucking board is
>>334932476

>>334932476
The actual question is.
>why is this game being bashed like tumblrtale or life is strange despite the fact that this place dont like those games
The answer is simple, this is reddit1.5
The game is hated because if you know your shit, you will understand the emptyness.
>>334932042
>Limited gameplay footage
They've shown quite a lot.
>>334933096
lol, right. you have heightened intelligence because you spend your free-time circlejerking about a game you'll never play.

>>334926945
Isn't this Infinity?
What ever happened to that game?
A lot of people just don't understand why others are so excited about this game. But the hype-mongers and the shills get so ass-ravaged that there are people out there that don't see the #InfinitePossibilities that they feel personally attacked and have to foam at the mouth while defending the game.
I've read through multiples of these threads and still don't see what makes this game so great. It sounds like Minecraft in space, with less multiplayer elements, less building, and as vague a "goal".
If anyone in this thread actually wants to enlighten me, feel free, but here's what I've seen as the game's biggest selling points:
>"Infinite" planet exploration.
You can do this in Minecraft right now, and no one but little kids do it because it gets old, really fucking fast, as the game holds virtually no agency or immediacy for anything anywhere.
>Procedurally generated [Content]
This is always great on paper, but in gameplay it rarely, if ever, works out. Can anyone even name a single game where this was dynamic enough to really matter?
>Factions, Weapons, Creatures, etc.
That do what, exactly? Everyone brings this up as a part of the game, but what do they do? How do they factor into the gameplay?
>Goal: The center of the galaxy.
Why? Does anyone know why this would make a game worth playing? With how vast the game is supposedly going to be, how would you ever reach it in a practical timeline? Do people really think that reaching the center of the galaxy suddenly makes the trip worth doing?
If they do, why? Have they said what getting to the center will do? I can't imagine it being so great that it's worth hyping a $60 game over.
So can anyone actually explain what this game's features are, why they're worth a $60 price tag, and what makes it as hypeable as games with massive promised innovative features like Spore?
>>334918490
This. I've no idea why people are so hyped. I expect a game where I can fly around and search for pretty planets and shit. I'm pretty sure many people expect some kind of life simulator or something.
>>334909838
only shills and retards say that
>>334917820
>Or you could get Elite Dangerous for 1/3 of the price
No you can't you fucking idiot. Can't believe you are shilling ED. Not even Reddit remotely likes that moneysink.
>$60
>>334909838
I don't understand how anyone can be hype for this game. It just seems so slow and boring.
>>334932476
I don't think it will fail in terms of revenue, it'll be a success money wise I think.
As a game however, I'm not too sure. Looks nice enough and exploring planets looks cool but the lack of anything else makes me think it won't see much playtime by most people.
>>334920889

But there are other things you can do. Are you one of those people that thinks there is just exploration to the game despite everything they've already shown?
>>334933959
>what do they do? How do they factor into the gameplay?
Weapons, spaceships and other shit you can use to fight hostile aliens. Become a space pirate, or protect trade convoys from other pirates. Faction relationships give you a range of bonuses from access to better gear, to friendly npc's.

>>334935575
You can literally get into space combat. Kill yourself.
>>334909838
i guess 'll pirate it on pc.
like someone else said, there is only so much possibities until it gets boring as fuck. it generates different combinations of different things. you're going to see the same fucking shit over and over.
the only thing i'm looking forward to is planet hopping. thats been in games of my dreams, so that better be fucking cool as advertised.
>>334912627
who's "evaporating"? the player took the lead and the NPCs are behind them, they didn't disappear
>>334936201

>>334936431
I CAN'T SEE SHIT SARGE
>>334935273
>fight hostile aliens
But the combat we've seen so far, unless someone in this thread has a video otherwise, looks EXTREMELY bare-bones. All of it seems to just be point and shoot, without even basic FPS tactics or mechanics.
>>334936201
Shit like this is what I don't understand too.
In the aforementioned video, two NPC ships descend on the planet, then the player does. Those ships are just completely gone. Whether it's due to the extremely low draw distance that this game will become infamous for, or because the game just has trouble saving non-seeding states, we don't know.
>>334935452

The game doesn't look that fun. You don't need to lie or make shit up to criticize it.
>>334937519
most people here don't even play games anymore, they just want to spend all day shitposting.
>>334937598
No one can even be happy for a game like this to release.
>>334929220
Why? There's absolutely no reason to pre-order.
Guys. It's made by a development team who has only made games designed for 5-15 minute sessions. If you think about No Man's Sky, all game play shown off to date ranges between 5-30 minutes. That is the design decision that has gone into this game. Anywho who'll play it for hours will be bored out of their mind quickly.
If they show the game for long periods, it will become painfully obvious the intent of the creator.
Also, finally, FINALLY, console fags will feel the pain of what PC felt with Spore, on their platform--when vision massively undermines expectation.
In the history of \v\, was there a game that went under development and released without so much shitposting?
Everytime, everything that start developing, release some trailers and some information on the game, every one must shitpost like crazy in order to accomplish something.
You people died from the inside a long time ago
>>334909838
Here's the thing that pisses me off about No Man's Sky, and it's the same thing that pisses me off about Spore.
Life should be rare.
I'm not saying that every planet should be a wasteland of chemicals and minerals. I'm just saying that you can find beauty in a planet without it having to be because of flora and fauna. I want the majority of planets I find to be vast empty frontiers of ice or sulfur or clay or some shit. I want to feel isolated and small and alone.
Planets with life on them should only be like 10% of the planets you can find. They could probably balance this by having planets without life have cool rare minerals that can only exist in extreme environments.
idk, just seems kind of fucking stupid to have every fucking planet in the solar system have alien dinosaurs
>>334910176
84 and rising
>>334937978
nobody is expecting so much from this, we are just hyped for some fun, and mark my words, it will be fun. The problem is that I don't know what the fuck v do for fun, because clearly it is not playing games.
>>334937978
confirmation bias at work, anon. all gameplay shown off to date ranges between 5-30 minutes because they're fucking excerpts. the game is clearly designed to encourage protracted exploration.
>Also, finally, FINALLY, console fags will feel the pain of what PC felt with Spore, on their platform-
there is significant overlap between consolefags and mustards dude. we all felt it.
>>334938160
Didn't they say most of the planets will have relatively little to do/see on them?
>>334913749
>>It's possible for your ship to be destroyed and your left with a life pod that can travel a system very slowly but can't warp. At this point you HAVE to buy/steal another ship to continue to play. You can either land at a station on a planet and mine/work to get enough credits to buy a ship or wait until one lands near you and steal it for a reputation hit
I actually like this. It makes the world feel more punishing if you don't keep a close eye on your ship
>aww shit my ship was destroyed
>gotta survive this possibly hostile planet until I gather enough resources to afford a new one
Sounds comfy
>>334910835
Eww Eve online

>that Robin Williams demo
>"When this creature defecates, he has to move VERY fast"
Could you blame me for getting hype?
>>334938046
The only consistent way for a game to avoid shitposting is to simply 1) not be in the public eye (for /v/, that is, which means not being at E3, not having big trailers and not being from a major dev) and 2) not have elements of games that are topical and create controversy on /v/ (ie not be a "walking sim" or not have blatant LGBT stuff, that kind of thing).
>>334938160
>Planets with life on them should only be like 10% of the planets you can find.
They actually said this is the case.
https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2015/08/03/41-amazing-things-you-might-not-know-about-no-mans-sky/
>“Ninety percent of the planets that you visit should be barren, because that’s how it would be in our universe and anything else would feel fake. And then 10-percent of them should have some life, but that life 90-percent of the time should just be some grass and some shrubbery or whatever, you know, some insignificant life. But 10-percent of the time — 10-percent of the 10-percent — it should be real life. But maybe just birds, fish, and things like that, smaller creatures, 90-percent of the time. And 10-percent of the time it should be something a bit more interesting, like four-legged creatures. But that four-legged creature 90-percent of the time should be super boring.”
>And so on. “People always talk about us being the game with space dinosaurs in it or whatever, right?” Murray continued. “Even those, they will be one in a million—like genuinely one in a million, like 10-percent of 10-percent of 10-percent of 10-percent of 10-percent, right? But even then, even though they’re one in a million, 90-percent of the time they should be a boring version of that. And we save the crazy interesting creatures for not one in a million, but one in a hundred million.”
>>334913545
Uh, no. Not him, but what people want him to answer is: "if I call my friend Jake, and we over the course of the week figure out where we are in the Galaxy, and decide we're gonna spend the next two months to meet up, so that we can go on an adventure together, CAN WE DO THAT?"
And Sean Murray dodged the question by answering indirectly with vague statements of "yes, but no." Which is grossly disingenuous.
He's basically setting up his studio to receive a massive amount of backlash and tarnish it's reputation by being obtuse unnecessarily. This is a 60 dollar title, and people are trying to make an informed decision on purchasing the game, and the lead developer is doing everything possible to prevent these very people from making such decisions. Instead relying on comments like "it's dark souls like or its Journey like."
Yes. We are aware of how those multiplayer systems work, but the primary question still has not been answered. "Is this a game I could play with a friend or a group of friends? Yes or No."
His behavior is literally EA and Ubisoft bait and switch faggotry tier. I won't wish ill on him, but he's digging his grave with this nonsense and he better be prepared to lie in it, the day or week after launch, when people realize they've been tricked and then retaliate against the creators for that.
>>334938160
They said life has a 10% chance out of all of the planets many are barren with more resources. Do some fucking research nigger.
>>334939094
This is /v/, I don't have to know anything.
>>334938280
I'm waiting for my Everspace alpha key next week, and then I'll share my game play run with you faggots. So you guys will be able to make an informed decision on whether you want to purchase/pirate such a game.But I'm not doing it for free, €70 ain't free.
>>334915806
Um excuse me that's very fucking racist, why should I have to learn a new language just because I'm from somewhere else? I bet it was a Cis Alien Male that came up with this language. Fucking Aliatriarchy.
i have a friend who's been hyping this game up since 2013, and other than watching last year's E3 thing about it (which i gotta say got me pretty amped), i haven't been following it
just read this thread though and i feel like it will still appeal to my interests. i notice nobody has mentioned the artifact discovery elements of the game?
the source this guy linked
>>334938745
>You’ll find ancient artefacts and crashed ships
>They may lead to you discovering new technologies, which can give your ship, suit and multitool new or improved abilities.
this sounds fucking sweet. can we name the artifacts too, or only planets/flora/fauna?
>>334909958
That is an insult to starbound.
Starbound had gameplay, and you could build and craft shit.
This is nothing but a glorified walking sim
>b-b-but muh millions of planets
Technically I could build 10000 different houses with my little box of 200 lego pieces, but really, the house would be basically the same thing but with a different pattern and layout.
>>334916368

You know the way Peter Molyneux is famous for promising shit that never turns up in his games? Well this is like the most promised game in gaming history. So many people talking about the "potential", about how you'll be able to trot around the galaxy. Seriously, does anyone actually believe this game is nearly as large in scope as it's creators make it out to be?
>>334941548
anyone who's watched any gameplay or read any reviews does
nobody who's played the game has complained that the locations weren't unique or that the universe wasn't massive, the single biggest complaint has been that although the exploration is awesome, it's all there is to the game
>>334914453
Not really. Never planned on buying a tech demo, let alone for $60.
>>334938745
>Upsetting the balance of planets by mining them too heavily or killing creatures will see you being hunted down by the Sentinels, and attacking craft in space will attract the attention of the police. The more you do, the stronger they will retaliate.
is this something continual? if i fuck up a planet once, will that reputation as a planet-fucker-upper stick with me throughout the galaxy, or is it forgotten when i move on elsewhere?
>>334941548
I feel like ever developer has turned into Peter Molyneux these days. Difference is Peter had good intentions and was just stupidly ambitious, these guys are hack that want to con you into their shitty game.

No one is asking for it to fail. A lot of people such as myself would like a game with this, though with actual content. It's going to fail, we just aren't falling for the gimmick.
>>334909838
So many possibilities, yet nothing to do.
>Few weeks
Are you on crack? It's not coming out until 21st of June. Nine is considerably more than "a few"
>>334909885
Yeah but there's very little interaction and the universe is so big you could never meet someone
>>334942753
You clearly don't know how marketing is. What company is going to say their boring game is pretty much boring.
Here is an example:
http://o.canada.com/technology/gaming/ken-levine-promises-the-future-of-ai-combat-with-bioshock-infinite
>first computer controlled companion to think, act, and more importantly, react like an actual human being.
>Interaction with the surrounding environment is just one of the many innovations the team behind Bioshock Infinite introduced with Liz. In many other games, when the character you’re controlling darts to the left to inspect a box you’re convinced is carrying some piece of rare treasure but is really just a couple of dollar bills, your AI stays forever loyally by your side. In Infinite, Liz does the complete opposite.
Learn to fucking think for yourself you god damn poopskin.
How could anyone go through this thread and not believe /v/ is filled with shills. This is Division 2.0
>>334943159
i haven't played bioshock infinite so i'm not sure how accurate that example is, but i do know what you mean
i think there's a difference, though, between overdescribing a feature ("the AI will be super futuristic!" when in fact it's just so-so) and promising a feature that flat out doesn't appear ("there's gonna be factions and space combat!" no you can't all you do is walk around and shoot the odd NPC ship)
>>334930735
It's inarguable, so stop trying.
>>334943536
Its shit, so stop pretending.
I can 1000% guarantee you that the center of the universe won't contain anything exciting or cool gameplay wise and will instead be an incredibly pretentious message about God or the nature of man, and then end on a philosopher's quote.
>>334943419
anon.just play along, ive been doing it since 5 threads ago, im not in every single one, but.
>>334943904
>center of the universe
Santa isn't real either.
>>334943809
Nice lie bruh
You know, I still think this game looks cool, especially exploring undersea on alien planets, a niche I have always wanted and never had fulfilled, but I am EXTREMELY fucking turned off by the gay ass space-cops being everywhere. If I feel like there are always magic robots following me my immersion of being on an undiscovered alien world will be utterly destroyed.
>>334943904
>get to the center of the universe
>it unlocks the secret of matter creation
>you now have construction tools, and you can fly to any planet or asteroid you want and just start going full minecraft
>in addition to simple structures, you can also synthesize complex machines and even stargate-style portals for quick travel from world to world
>this is where the real game begins
I would buy day 1 if I knew this was in the game.
unfortunately it's looking to be a neat tech demo

This is the worst shit i ever saw.
If this game had multiplayer, most of you shitters would be hyping it up. Fuck your multiplayer PvP bullshit.
