I thought I got the link from our forums, but I can't find it.
So...trailer.
Looks interesting.

Re: No Man's Sky
I'm very interested, but one thing here I don't care for:
I'd prefer if the changes you make to terrain and whatnot stay and are logged by the server to be shown to others that come along later. Yes, even if it's just a giant dong in the sand.As you travel to new planets, they are generated around you, and when you leave them, they degenerate.

Re: No Man's Sky
I thought earlier it said you could leave your mark for people to find. Maybe they're referring to planets that don't get visited?

Re: No Man's Sky
Kinda.
In some ways you can. If you discover a planet or a creature, you can name it and add it to the galactic index. It will bear that name forever (or at least until the universe ends) and other players coming across it will know that you discovered it first.
You won't really be able to leave a physical mark on the game, however, at least not on the universe at large. As you travel to new planets, they are generated around you, and when you leave them, they degenerate. So, if you use a mining tool to blast a section of a planet, perhaps to draw a giant penis on the ground (I will just assume that is what you will do), once you leave that planet and fly away, the game will once again disassemble the planet behind you.

Re: No Man's Sky
With a revised answer...
“Changes the player makes are saved locally,” Murray explained. “So if you start destructing the terrain, that’s saved on your own machine. And if you try and make -- what we would consider -- really significant [changes], some of those [changes] are stored on the server, along with the discoveries that you make. But in general, a lot of what you’re doing is considered insignificant. If you kill a creature, we scratch that, we save that that’s happened, but we don’t feel the need to like, kill that creature for everybody.”
So it sounds like you'll be able revisit and view the dongs you've drawn, even if no one else can see them.
Note: this answer has been revised to reflect that some changes to planets will remain locally.

Just got a $40 Steam gift card unexpectedly. That might help get over the price tag.
I'm telling myself that $60 is probably fair for a game that, literally, would take more than my lifetime to explore.

Well, technically that applies to any procedural game with a large or unlimited area, like Minecraft. Or even rogue-likes that change with every playthrough.Leisher wrote:I'm telling myself that $60 is probably fair for a game that, literally, would take more than my lifetime to explore.

Electronic Legos never had any appeal to me, so while I agree it could be endless, it's not my thing. Rogue-likes I enjoy, but I haven't found one that I keep returning to over and over.
Rust is something I've played a ton of and I'm still playing. I think I bought it for $15-20 originally and I'm pretty sure have I over 1000 hours.

Re: No Man's Sky
Reviews based on leaked copies haven't been perfect.
First of all, bullshit or truth, I'll now hold off on the day one purchase.
Secondly, who the fuck pays $1200 for a fucking PC game?

WHOA! that makes it look like they changed the whole game right on release. None the less, this game looks pretty sweet and I'm intrigued.Leisher wrote:Day one patch info.

Re: No Man's Sky
I am too, but I need to know more. It's release day, so Troy's probably playing it right now.

Re: No Man's Sky
It's only out for PS4 right now. So far PC version only has a tentative date of Friday.
From the Dev's as of yesterday:

The reality is that we're still here working on it right now. There's no conspiracy, we're just racing to get all the extra options and stuff we want. PS4 comes out tomorrow and we'll just try to pretend it's a normal work day! Best guess right now is 6pm GMT on Friday, but we'll keep you up to date as we get closer.

Two streamers cross paths but were never able to see each other. So why call it a multiplayer game? If no one else can see the dicks you draw in the sand nor see you then what's the point? So you can name a planet?
