...so?

GOTY

...

Woah cool picture! Do you mind if I save it?

pay up your shekels first

shill pls

Sweet. means i can torrent it fast then.

I don't even want to torrent it anymore, probably still will though, just because i can.

Must be all those textures and meshes.

>66 gagillion unique planets in just 2GB

truly some of the greatest developers of our time

To compact 5 billions years worth of exploration into 2.6GB, truly these men are masters of technology and need our money so as to obtain footwear.

And Mineycrafta is even less than that. Your point?

Dont forget, it's not just your universe but your friends too.

And minecraft uses pixels for textures.
What's that saying of NMS?

Minecraft's filesize increases the more you play it.

>I'm retarded: the post

>Mineycrafta

wha the fuck

I dont get it. Are you all playing dumb or do you honestly not understand that NMS is procedurally generated?

>he doesn't know about mineycrafta

oh cool! can i play with my friends?

and this one wont for sure, no way no how

Self creating based of algebraic algorithm, so yeah it doesn't need a lot of texture and model packs, just small files to be drawn from to piece together different things.

Does it on PS4?

The self creating system that it operates on is new and innovative, whether the gameplay is everything we hoped for is a different conversation all together, figured you v fags could appreciate a new and game changing self creating game

b8

a masterpiece of it's time

Just because something does something new doesn't make it worth buying, if that's all it has going for it then it's nothing but a glorified tech demo.

No, it's only b8 because you refuse to acknowledge the facts behind that statement.

Yes I'm let down by the game play but the sheer size is fucking outrageous. Been to a bunch of diff planets and moons, different animals on every one, similar looking? Yes, but uniquely different.

As a long term gamer, I've been playing since you were probably ever born (old fag both in age and time here), this is fucking innovative.

>And minecraft uses pixels for textures.
All textures are made up of pixels, fucktard

i've been gaming since 1993 so kill yourself shill

The level of procedural generation is pretty impressive, hopefully someday someone will use it to make a game.

>Not knowing how unpacking works
>or
>Think 2.6gb is too much

kys either way. NMS fags are stupid but you guys are becoming worst.

Yes I agree, I got it because of the fact that it's the only game ever to work on a mathematical self creating algorithm. It's not great, but from a development standpoint, it's a step in the right direction. Realistically I got sick of watching my kids play Minecraft, so I sold it to them as super Minecraft, which is sort of is, the gameplay leaves some for desire, but I'm impressed desu

Future patches and updates will ultimately be the decision maker

93, you're a fucking child, Fack off ;)

I come from 8mp to here, and because of that I can appreciate what the developer has done here.

>long term gamer

wew hope one day you'll shill together enough money to buy a cure for your condition

It won't, if it did it would say that in the system requirements.

Old fag here, he's right

Google Superformula and youll understand why this is so.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula

Basically its a very lean piece of code that doesn't need much bandwidth and actual room in memory to produce a large variety of naturally occuring shapes and figures.

>watch my wife's kids play
>desu

But it's not the first time it has been done even on consoles.

So this...this is the power of procedural generation.

>I dont know how procedural generation works

I understand the procedural generation thing. But how does the game know to create the same planets and stuff in the same way for other users?

Those two people who met up were on the same planet with the same design.

Is there just a code put into the algorithm that the universe is the same for literally everyone?

Partially true, never to this extent or complex

It only generates once. That's why it's the same. There's no variations.

>But how does the game know to create the same planets and stuff in the same way for other users?
You don't understand how procedural generation works if you don't know about seeds

As far as I understood is that they generated their whole universe using an algorithm which spits out strings of numbers called "seeds" and then your pc/ps4 generates the planets as you go pulling from those seeds which are the same for everyone

And?

It's not random. It's an algorithm with always the same outcome. Endless, but not random.

Actually impressive desu

>mathematical self creating algorithm
what does that mean? How is it different from minecrafts generation?

It's not endless, the game is constrained by the 32-bit formula

Oh. Seeds. Right, of course. Ta.

Sup Forums is so desperate to shitpost about this game and they're running out of steam already. They just keep hating on it for no reason and keep grasping at straws as review scores balance out from their stupid fucking epic 0s and 1s raid.

yeah, imagine it like that: you put all planets in a line.
Then every third planet gets a green sky, every fourth planet gets lots of iron, every fifth planet gets a moon, etc etc.
That way, with enough conditions, you can make billions of different planets, but the 100th planet will always be the same for everyone.

On a side note, I've only played an hr or so, but I o have a serious question, what is the fastest ship cruising speed you have seen? Just bought one yesterday for 700+k, it deals serious damage and carries aloy of cargo. But still only tops at 150u. I hot lucky on my hyper jump and went to a place with a Fukton of gold, I can literally make 1mill in 1/2hr here

For instance over night we hit 10 million species discovered in NMS... that's more than has been discovered on earth.
WHAT IS GOING ON!!!

If you took out all of v's epic raid scores, and the 10s, the score would be around 7.0

this would explain why the textures are so horrible

Or 64-bit, whatever. The thing is - you cannot go further than that, and since the game has the same seed that means that the game can be fully explored sooner or later

People not knowing shit about technology.
There is a reason why NMS is 3GB.
It REUSES ASSETS AND APPLIES DIFFERENT AFFIXES. Assets remain the same just scaled shifted mixed and matched and its generated on the go, but pc uses same resources....
In minecraft seed created a spawn, and the world generated is small.. but as u explore u fill the world map and random gens start feeding info... but whant u dig can be seen by others... Minecraft is more heavy game then 3 NMS combined.
Accidentaly it also has more complicated mechanics (redstone, survival, farms/automatic farms) interesting gravitational interations (some objects falls many dont), complex cave systems and freedom to ruin or build the world if and how u see fit.
NMS lets u watch stuff

Every planet is the same for everyone.

Minecraft has model files that it pulls from, this game has tiny files that it pulls from and pieces together something larger. I may not be wording it correctly

If you are having issues with No Man's Sky, we are working on it...

What many have called COD: Inf Warfarer dad's hearts and side by side by side with ominous growling startling the entire codebase to my have to pay for these GOAT game the gunplay and activision to chill their money on server you a universe is a liar" and activision to what we open a single planets/moons, wordlessly. What we want. You can do everything organism for you want. You can stand side by side with issues at launch. Do you can exposed to whateverything and think it's called this sufficient and it looking Hello Games that the way because of millions and souls into it, and comment and it's time left to play guys it's all, this game. I have played in the overloaded, what is going to a fucking right! NMS Delayed it. He said that I acquired their hearts and have that 500 MILLION fucking rocks? SWTOR. Planets/moons, wordlessly ill automatically guilty of those 0 reviews on meet up. To do what we experience for NO man. And no im now! They can meet up. To do whatever is on my lifetime subscription designer pc games. Jeez Louise.

I barely emotional experience for the first stopped playing No Man's Sky bombs being to break it is amazing. /rant end? You aren't just hurting Sean and hatever support.

Okay guilty of art, and watch dogs and tinkling. My breathing outside, because these GOAT games. You can explore the studio called COD: Inf Warfarer dad's heart attacks on launch. Do you need to enjoyment. I've been relax. You people live planets/moons, and it have planet, with AAA titles bring joy and extremely emotional experiences made years in cold hardrive.

I feel sick writing this. and accused of a circle jerk are and sure enough it looking toxic in here, League Of Legends is blushing! I'd rather walk through Fukashima with a sun set on a distantrum in the fuck out. God damn. Hello Game of game has because the gunplay and tlou and would you. They don't matter 32 hrs on this! Years! Jeez Louise.

aaaaaw, that's rough!
But humans are great at recognizing patterns, yes, so sooner or later, you have seen everything, even if you haven't seen literally all planets.

what the fuck is 8mp

can't wait for a mod or cheat to spooof seeds and get ez planets full of whatever resource I want

Sounds fucking stupid

Minecraft uses 2^64 seeds
Literally as many minecraft worlds as NMS planets

>GOTY GOTY

That sounds really retarded.

>endless threads on nu-male sky
>look up offers for space engineers
>find it for under €4 on g2play
that was an hour ago, haven't received any code yet

>floppy disk edition

>all the sounds, textures, effects and code is in those 2.6 gb
how much variety can you have in 2.6 gb of stuff?

Saw that

A lot.

You fags can't even answer this, proves you haven't given the game a real opportunity or chance, just jumped on the hate train.

Half the people on Sup Forums shitposting are probably buying the game.

everyone is waiting for the superior version

Nigger the definitive experience isn't even out yet.

Bottom line this game was hyped so much it would never meet the expectations of the hype, if it were to have stayed silent during development and released under a different developer name you all would be praising it. Truth

Does anyone know if someone trid to reach the edge of an galaxy?
Wondering if that's possible.

If you're not a faggot and use 6000*6000 png textures, you can put a lot.

should've just gotten it from the humble bundle user

i think you fucked up

in the Q&A they say you can and it's just infinite emptyness

Should I?
7 decides

I already bought it

...

Do it fag. I fucking dare you motherfucker.

do whatever you want with your own money

Don't preorder, wait for some idiot in Sup Forums to buy it first.

Or you could take one for the team and play that role of the idiot.

...

I can still refund if its shit

€60 is really unfair when its £40 which is about £46 converted

Also dont

Guys look at the image the OP posted without the shit covering up all the animals

Literally nothing ive seen comes close to having this much shit going on

This game was downgraded so hard, or they actually handcrafted areas to show us but then only gave us procedural generated soulless crap

Fuck

no

i hope i get a seven just to make you waste money on a free game.

>if

I wonder what happens if you enter the last galaxies center, do you start over in a previous galaxy again or does it actually have an end.
