Oh they're all in progress reviews. I'm not trying to make out anyone has a definitive and worthwhile review out yet that would be impossible, I am just saying some of them, albeit early doors, are saying they are bored as fck already which is not a good sign.

I think the only reviews I've seen saying this are metacritic user reviews, which should never be taken seriously

Oh yeah no worries, it just seems that from the patch notes and from what I've read those reviews mean less than nothing because it is not a game in it's pre-patch state. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-08-08-our-no-mans-sky-review-will-be-late-and-heres-why

Yeh i'm just having a read through some of them now. I'm starting to notice a trend in the reviews though... "This may not be everything you hoped it would be" I'm starting to wonder what everybody 'hoped' it would be. Everything I'm seeing game play wise is exactly how the developers suggested it would be. I get the feeling a lot of people have dressed this up to be more than it actually was ever intended to be.

Some of them do really like it though and it is early doors..... To be honest I don't really care, I've barely played a space game like that since Elite and I loved that game so Im on it regardless.

The last space game I truly got 'into' was Elite 2 on the Amiga, so I'm looking forward to sinking some time into this

Christoph Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 ~Kinda want to play this game but just realised its not coming out for Xbox. I do have a PC but not sure it can hack playing a game like this anymore. Anyone got it yet? Think it's worth buying so far?
stripeyfox Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Just waiting for midnight for it to unlock. I don't think it is for everyone, but I think I'm going to like it. Been watching all the trailers with my son and we're looking forward to exploring together.
stripeyfox Posted 10 August 2016 Posted 10 August 2016 Been going crazy on Twitch/Reddit when two players found themselves "close" to each other and met up at a planet, but couldn't see each other? Not a big deal for me, but I I guess it could be for some.

Not a big deal for me, but I I guess it could be for some. Apparently, like with every game these days, they're having some server issues with 'unexpected demand'. So this feature is just put on the back-burner, in sacrifice to ensure the game runs as smooth as possible.
stripeyfox Posted 10 August 2016 Posted 10 August 2016 Walked for bloody ages trying to find some element to make rocket fuel only to discover there was a stockpile of it right next my ship! Have scanned and catalogued lots of animals and renamed a couple (Vardysaur anybody?). Ship is all fixed and ready to leave, but not quite ready to depart yet so just going to fly around my home planet (Ranieri) and see what I can find. The multiplayer bit doesn't bother me at all whether the implement it or not. I'm happy playing with myself (so to speak!)
Beliall Posted 10 August 2016 Posted 10 August 2016 I have enjoyed a good session on this today, jumped 3 or 4 times, progress is nice and slow thanks to needing to craft new materiels for each jump reload. But, i have to say the graphics on the PS4 are ****ing shocking. I should have ( and probably will at some point) got this on PC

I think the chances of you banging into to someone are absloutley tiny anyway. Although I knew even with all this talk of how vast the universe is two people would manage to get to the same place within hours.

Is it easy / possible to find your way "back" to a given planet? Like to return to your starting planet?

matty98 Posted 10 August 2016 Posted 10 August 2016 I keep running out of inventory space and having to travel for ages just to sell things, wish they'd made the starting inventory size a bit bigger

There is a checklist of items to discover on each world, blanked out unil you find them , so you might want to return and complete finding everything Just now, matty98 said: I keep running out of inventory space and having to travel for ages just to sell things, wish they'd made the starting inventory size a bit bigger Just ditch trinkets and stuff if you get full. Focus on valuable resources for reloading , and cash in selling rare minerals that you find. I sold a stack of 250 for 100,000cr. worth way more than GEKNIP at 11,000cr
whoareyaaa Posted 10 August 2016 Posted 10 August 2016 I'm debating wether to buy another ps4 to play this as I think it's a game I would actually enjoy, anyone know if supermarkets are stocking the game today?

Or you can download it. It's actually quite a small download - about 4GB I think.

I assume you can carry more as you progress through the game...
