dipsylalapo 1,885 Posted November 3, 2015 I only own an Xbox at the moment but like to keep an eye on what's going on with Sony. This game has me excited and seems that I should aim to buy a PS4 before 2016! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
domboy 314 Posted November 3, 2015 I only own an Xbox at the moment but like to keep an eye on what's going on with Sony. This game has me excited and seems that I should aim to buy a PS4 before 2016!If you're going to get a playstation just to play No Man's Sky why not get the PC version when it's released (unless you don't have a PC either)?? That's my plan. I've heard in the past it was supposed to be a timed exclusive for PS4, but now I've seen it stated the release date will be the same.http://www.gamespot.com/articles/no-mans-sky-release-window-announced/1100-6431758/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

domboy 314 Posted November 3, 2015 Pretty much it Both my personal and work laptop aren't exactly top spec. I've been contemplating for a while now and the release of this game convinces me.Guess that answers that! Though I honestly hope the system requirements aren't too high, as my PC isn't exactly a monster machine either...Same here, PC version for me. But to be frank, it's still not clear to me whether or not this game will end up being boring after a few hours.An excellent point. The concept and execution of the game sound really cool, but it'll be very interesting to find out what playing it actually ends up being like. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Asmodai 637 Posted November 3, 2015 Same here, PC version for me. But to be frank, it's still not clear to me whether or not this game will end up being boring after a few hours.I have no doubt that some people will find this game boring. There isn't a strong narrative in the game so if you need a compelling story to have fun in a game it's probably not for you. On the other hand if you enjoy running around in Minecraft or playing around in the GTA/Fallout/Elder Scrolls world besides running the story missions then there's a good chance you'll like this game. I know I personally love open world games and I'm really looking forward to this one but I also know that many people don't like to be just given a world/galaxy to play with and told to do their own thing. Not every game is going to please everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Asmodai 637 Posted November 3, 2015 So...what do you do in this game?Explore, fight, trade. There isn't a specific way to play the game. Some crazy people might just spend their entire time playing it exploring their starting planet (unlikely, but possible). In theory you're supposed to work your way to the center of the galaxy but that goal is along the same lines as in theory you're supposed to try to get to the end and defeat the dragon in Minecraft... many will play the game and never even try to get to the center of the galaxy.Exploration is the main focus as you'll be discovering planets, flora, and fauna that no other person has ever seen before (not even the developers). In order to explore farther you have to earn credits to upgrade your ship and gear though. Your ship has a limited jump range at the start, your suit limits what environments you can survive on outside the ship, your weapon limits your mining, combat ability. You can earn credits by harvesting resources, trading, fighting, logging new creatures, places. etc. Again there is no specific way to play. You can play as a pacifist explorer, you could be a pirate, you could be a merchant, etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hedon 397 Posted November 17, 2015 This is coming to Xbox also, right?The dev, being an indie, wanted to focus on getting it out for the PS4 and PC for now. Microsoft has stated that if the dev gets it running for Xbox One they would love to have it on their platform too (not just on their Windows platform). Now there is question (rumor) that it will make it on the PS4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wakjak 21,514 Posted May 28, 2016 https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/no-mans-sky-ps4/ Quote “As we approached our final deadlines, we realized that some key moments needed extra polish to bring them up to our standards,” director Sean Murray wrote on the PlayStation Blog this evening. “I have had to make the tough choice to delay the game for a few weeks to allow us to deliver something special.” http://kotaku.com/its-official-no-mans-sky-delayed-to-august-1779236658 7 week delay sucks man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightyJordan 8,245 Posted May 28, 2016 Seeing some of the reactions to the rumour earlier, I think I'll keep my distance from this game until it comes out... Seriously, death threats for reporting a game being delayed? Those twisted ######ers need to be sorted out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
