Please post in the thread when the game is out and you find a new planet. Please answer 1.) What colour is the planet? 2.) What is the Gravity like? 3.) Bored yet?

Sandbox games are the biggest cashgrab, low effort garbage in the gaming industry outside of microtransactions. 'here is a bunch of half made, half thought-out bullshit to do under the guise of total free will in a virtual world. Because we had to incorporate several different control methods for all the poo poo in the game, none of them are really any good. this is worth $70'

Why are randomly-generated games still a thing? Like, I don't get it. I thought we all figured out that, no, it's not "limitless possibilities" and "never the same game twice", it's just boring as poo poo the first time, and then it's just as boring the second time and the third time. Oh wow, a computer generated universe populated with generic enemies and randomly placed resources. I'm so glad I have an infinite number of boring-rear end planets to explore, free from the oppressive influence of artists and designers.

Im gonna dig traps for people. They'll land and they'll be like "Oh someone was here!" Then they'll go, "Oh I bet this hole is the guy's base or batcave or somethinaaaaaaahhh!" Bottomless pit.

chaosbreather posted:your ship, your suit and your tool/weapon are all craftable and componented, and progression is based off that. for instance, theres' good poo poo in freezing cold planets or burning hot planets or underneath oceans and poo poo, so your ability to go get those things and survival is gated by the poo poo you stick into your gear to make it go. and you got to get a better hyperdrive to go other places, which as you get closer to the center get weirder, more lucrative and more dangerous. you can find blueprints to build entirely new poo poo or find poo poo on the ground, from killing poo poo or in boxes and so on

jBrereton posted:So it's like that terraria in space game but you can't even play it with your friends to ignore how terrible it is. Wow!!! Well I Imagine you will be able to play it with friends, just not for a while, maybe months depending on how much you play. But each player has a path to the galactic core on their map and there are many galaxies; this would indicate that galactic cores are like hubs to other galaxies. Once players reach that point I imagine those core regions around galactic hubs would see some traffic and it's probably where most PvP would take place (but that's a guess). As one of the only worthwhile PC titles in a while I'll be getting it, and I'm hoping for things that could happen long down the line. Even if it doesn't pan out, still worth more of a look than most things in a while for the PC.

Bottomless pit. Sorry man but everyone has a jetpack. They have limited fuel, but I still think they'll be able to get out of it Also the odds of anyone finding a planet you've been to are about one in a billion billion

jBrereton posted:Not really seeing why they couldn't let players form groups and just scale up the challenge a bit to compensate like in other cutting-edge procedurally generated games such as Diablo 1. Because games where you lobby up and shoot things with your pals already exist. Point of NMS is to to go where no one has ever been before and have that be meaningful.

jBrereton posted:"Wow, just even imagining the beautiful skyscapes and incredible creatures of my wonderful world of D-1488-ANKMEME, with its rocks to sell for space creds... take my wallet!" I mean I understand what you're saying, but this game isn't much about jumping into combat right away, though you can be a pirate I suppose. Moving toward the galactic core grants you the time to gather resources and explore while upgrading your equipment and ship. This would seem like good preparation for making contact with other players, so you don't just get blown out of the sky by players as soon as you get close to any transportation hub. But also down the line you have the ability to form player factions, control territory, I mean the possibilities are there. There's not a ton of coordination in-game but on the PC third-party chat programs make that less of an issue. I'm not super-hyped for this game... but I hope it surprises me. > e: I want to add, it's mentioned in text at the end of the video that life is scarce. Most planets are uninhabitable, many habitable planets will have only basic lifeforms. A very tiny percentage of those have advanced life (perhaps life different from the main factions?). So you can get even more unexcited about snow planets and sun-baked hellscapes(?), perhaps something like Pluto or the moons of a gas giant. To me, that's interesting.

The 21 minutes of gameplay with the dev looked pretty cool but I got the impression that with ships you buy/trade for and specific mechanics like the land shaping gun there's going to not actually be that many novel things and it's mostly gonna be getting better enviro suits and tools to allow you access to areas that let you make even better enviro suits and tools and so forth.

In what way is this game's galaxy/system/planet structure different from EVE? Watching that intro video in the OP made me think "They're trying really hard not to compare this to EVE." Am I missing something?

its all window dressing, there is no gameplay at all. 1 biome per planet lmbo.

Like players gather large fleets of ships including capital ships and fight it out with other people, that kind of thing. In NMS you may start completely alone in that particular galaxy player-wise.
