A fast travel system, but not a particularly good one. Some minor base revamp. Can't remember what else I overheard, but there are people who definitely need to shut up while at the pub.

I wish they'd automate moneymaking a little. It's weird that one of the best ways to make money is farming by hand. My freighter should do some buying and selling every time I call it into a new system and I get to skim some of the profits.

I'm still not sure I'm going to be playing this game ever again, but I'm still really curious about what they have in store for it. And I'm also one of those people that like it, got my money's worth multiple times already.

So I just booted up Survival (permadeath actually, might as well go all in), for the first time, and fuuuuuuuuck this poo poo is hard. Harder than it needs to be I think. Third time I died and Rerolled I finally got a planet with a decent temperature range. Great, no more freezing to death before I can find enough Thamium to power life support. "Extreme Radiation Detected" Oh gently caress you.

AirRaid posted:You mean like the Base teleporter system we already have? Not quite. Oh poo poo, that was the other thing. Do you remember in fable where it had that multiplayer thing where you couldn't see other people, but you could see orbs that moved around as other people played, or "ghosts"? They were adding Psuedo multiplayer

I know the history of the game and how it was a huge dumpster fire of a release when it came out, but it is 60% off on steam right now and god help me... I may pull the trigger.

You could probably get $20 of entertainment out of it, depending on how much you can stand battling with obtuse UI and how much you like making hamster tubes for spacemen However you should probably consider just getting Astroneer or something instead

This is a solid $10 game. Don't pay more than that.

I may pull the trigger. It's a chill game to wander around planets, just keep your expectations for the "gameplay loop" to a bare minimum. You make your own fun, aside from the quest chains your base builders give you (which can be ignored entirely if you don't want to build a base, but they've added a TON of options and you can make awesome bases like this one: (yes, parts of the base are inside/attached to a cliff)

Those are mostly great! I can't wait for the new update, it sounds like it'll be a big one if they're hiring an ARG team to promote it!

Are those bases using mods? There's like zero chance I can build something like that on PS4 last I touched the game.

I may pull the trigger. Depends. Take how much weed you smoke in a week in ounces and divide by how many blacklight posters you own. If you end up on the positive side of 50%, you're gonna get your money's worth.

They might have been built in Creative Mode where everything is dirt cheap, but you can definitely do stuff like that on PS4. At a certain point it becomes trivial to get enough materials to make a large base, the main thing you need is just Iron.

Picked this up in the sale, now that it doesn't always crash on the title screen, I quite like it. As the sort of person who's derped around in Elite Dangerous for something like 1800 hours, I suspect I'll be messing around with it a good while, just zooming about pretty landscapes.

So this AR game is confirming that the NMS galaxy is canonically a simulated universe that the player "character" is plugged into Matrix-style, right? It explains why barren worlds are somehow less common than worlds teeming with life.

I'm quite curious how they'll use all those answering machine messages in the game.

What sort of extra stuff could they still put in the game at this point, I wonder. If Elite hadn't come out, I'd probably still be playing this game. I still like it, though.
