No Man's Sky - Interceptor

The naming thing is cute, but after the first couple of worlds I stopped bothering, unless I was spending enough time in a system to note that a planet had a particular resource that I was returning to.

 

The idea of building a base anywhere is odd, as well. Depends on what else they (HG) bring to the game I guess, but in such a vast galaxy there really doesn't feel like there's any point to settling down. I really like the idea of constantly travelling, of being a drifter, the only baggage you carry being the tons of minerals in your pockets.

I tried pushing right on d pad when on galaxy mode but it doesn't work. Is it supposed to let plot back to where you started?

 

You need to push up on the d-pad first to search. Once it's found your discoveries you press right on the d-pad to go to systems you've already discovered. You have to make sure it's found your discoveries first or you'll just come up with random systems.

Anyone playing this with remote play on a PC? I'm trying but it's a mess. Wired connection as well, 80/20Mb at work, 40/10Mb at home but it's all over the place. 


EDIT: Will try standard resolution/fps.

Wonder if it will be more like a huge storage area? Perhaps they'll find a way so that you can set a beacon back to it no matter where you are in the universe. There'd be no point giving you a 100 slot warehouse if you have to make three light jumps just to drop off 250 iridium.

I want a moon buggy and a Mako, and a Death Star, and a yacht, and that submersible out of The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Also some pretzels - I'm fucking starving.

 

Though I'll be happy enough if they just don't patch out the jump boost Titan glide. Cos if they do that, there'll really be hell on.

I want a photo mode, a more definitive way of setting a user planetary waypoint (using the scanner, the bypass terminals or the save points) and for some of the resources to inventory stack. And for the exosuit protection devices to work in a worthwhile manner and for power canisters, shielding shards etc to make sense rather than being worse than pointless.

 

I'd take that, and some kind of chest in the space stations where I can store stuff like Atlas stones.

 

And for them not to fix the punch jump.

Well, I had a pretty weird moment with this. It's the second one.

 

A few days ago I replaced my ship. I'd bought one that looked like a caterpillar and used it just so I wasn't rocking a Billy Basic, but had planned all along to replace it as it was basically just the first not hideous ship I could afford. Found my badass space fighter after saving up for a while, bought it and transferred my stuff across. I blasted out of the space station and then realised that I hadn't really said goodbye to the caterpillar, or ever taken a picture of it. I was kind of hit by the fact that I might be the only person ever to see that exact ship and I suddenly felt really sad about leaving it. I've heard people here mention being sad about leaving their planets and stuff, but that was the first time I felt really attached to something. Took a few pictures, said a proper goodbye and warped out of the system the second I left the station to stop myself tearing up.

 

And I've just found myself with a very similar feeling, but when I'm not playing the game. I typed the question about what's at the center into google, but I could not bring myself to search. I can not deprive myself of that discovery, even if I might never actually make it. I can't just read a fucking description, I need to try to get there myself. If I give enough of a fuck to google it then there's still the longing for discovery in me, and I'm not ruining the whole fucking point. I'm loading up later and going full fucking pace towards the center :)

Broker's seen his fair share...

 

:lol:

 

I have though, had some really big flat plains. Those were gorgeous, it's more the similar "a bit rocky but not really" planets that make up 90% of what I find that were annoying me.

Ah bollocks is there any way to change your mind about following Atlas? I thought it would just affect finding a waypoint at that specific time but now I'm on another planet and Atlas is asking me what I'm doing and I only have "spurn the atlas" as a choice. I can no longer follow. Bugger!


EDIT: Argh and now I've accidently hit R2 when saving a planet so now have two with the same name.
