I've seen blue skies on both my planets. Granted this bit of space is a blue tint, but in my pre-NEXT save purple space still had a normal sky day and night. Tell me they didnt gently caress with the weird colors the sky can be

E: I do love the changes to recipes, it makes a sort of sense. Fixing the ship actually felt like fixing a ship.

Well gently caress me, that's nice.

E: I gotta say, as disapponted as I was with 1.0 I held on to my hope and my avatar, so far I'm enjoying the changes quite a bit. The little things here and there make it feel like what they should have released.

Course I'm on PC, sounds like the ps4 is having some pains.

gently caress... really? I was hoping I wouldn't have to replay the plot but I loaded up my old save and there's no mainline quest to do anymore. Is there a new plot to follow or are they just rewarding new characters better?

From the very little of the plot I did pre next the plot is better tied I guess. There are new lines for sure

so, no man's sky on pc is kind of a mess huh? i just bought it tonight.

i turned off vsync to try and fix the lovely frame rate (running this on an i7 with a 1070, but yeah, really bad frames), and it hard crashed to desktop. then steam wouldn't relaunch it. gets stuck on "preparing to launch." shut down steam, restart it, get it to run. turns out i lost about half an hour of progress. okay, fine, whatever, try to reload the autosave and see if that’s any further, hard crash to desktop again.

and steam is being fucky since it updated tonight.

:sigh:

e: yeah it seems applying any graphics updates with vsync off crashes it. :lol:

e2: finally managed to turn vsync back on and got a "restart required for changes to take effect" message, which i haven't seen before the earlier crashes, must be hanging there.

Weird. I have an i5 and a 1050 and I dont have any frame issues, with vsync on.

Alrighty, here we have my second planet, thus my first base home!



I love that what you see actually matches the geography



and lastly my humble little shacks front yard



You cant see it, but the base mission happened to put me like directly under the rings, so theres a thin line crossing the whole sky. Pretty planet, but watch out for the superheated rain storms!

abigserve posted:

be careful with multiplayer, found two additional problems:

- If you start a new character and join a friends game, and that friend is not in the same system they started in, the intro missions bug out and become unable to complete due to the recipe for antimatter being on a planet in another system (lol). This is easily fixed by quitting to menu and starting a single player game, the mission will move to whatever system your character is in.

- Multiplayer is a hosted experience. Any progress you do on your character while in a multiplayer game will carry forward into your own singleplayer game. However, if you quit, and then rejoin, you will join BACK to the host players system, potentially losing hours of forward travelling progress if you had decided to split up considerably. This is an issue with multiplayer if you tried playing it like we did which is "singleplayer but we'll meet up sometimes".

Yikes, glad I'm sp.

Ok I'm totally loving lost.

I started a new game - found the ship, got told to go find some things to fix the ship, and apparently if the ship isn't fixed, it doesn't show up on the map? How the hell am I supposed to find my way back? I've just been running around for 20 minutes with no idea if I'm going in the right direction or not.

I just started a new save on this, haven't played since launch. It's feeling pretty good so far but I am six hours into my save and just got AtlasPass v1. For the love of God though, when and how can I expect to upgrade my Exosuit inventory? Am I missing something on a space station?

Yep, right beside the character customization pad you can buy an exosuit slot once per station

It's funny they never fixed the 'mining gun never overheats' bug but they fixed the dupe fast as gently caress.

Pc players theres always cheat engine, if you want to give yourself fuel but have to work for other things or something like that

E:hell, what I did is just edit how much fuel is used on launch to something approaching reasonable

Oh boy, I sure do love combining obtuse, difficult save mechanics with the chance to randomly crash after 20 minutes of exploration. :(

Treat the ship as a save point. Not that it helps much when they seemingly want you doing a lot of ground exploration, but still.

Is it actually possible to find a nice earth-like planet that doesn't have firestorms or frenzied sentinels? I think it's time to start settling down but I don't want to deal with hazards.

Also, it's weird that everyone starts waving at me every time I go to the market.

I lucked out and this is my second planet, the one in my pics. There has only been one heated rainstorm outside of the base building scripted one, and I've spent copious amounts of time there dawdling about.

It looks like they fixed the bug where it dumps you out into space if you take too many missions. I've got 114 in my log ready to go.


how the hell did they create a bug so bad it killed the steam charts?

I laughed at this, so if it wasnt a genuine question thanks. What I meant was its selling like gangbusters and the people playing are higher than you would think.
