>weeks before release
>Sean Murray says multiple times that the game is not multiplayer
>reiterated it several times over
>live streams the game so people get a feel for the gameplay
Not a chance.

>getting sued because people turned a early game idea that didn't get implemented into a meme

I hope soon because there are legitimate reasons for it.

>Class Action against Hype trailers
>Class Action against Sega when Gearbox was responsible for completely fucking the game

>They can't be sued

But Sup Forums told me you can't ever win a suit vs a large company and it's foolish to attempt

Sony? Why Sony? No Man's Sky is not published by some, it's an indie game.

I hope you get raped for being a child

This. You being retarded and not paying attention to the games development isn't "false advertisement"

it is published by Sony on PS4, the physical version wouldn't even exist without Sony

>is not published by some
get off your phone you piece of shit

The publisher should be responsible all the same, after all they're the ones putting the game on the market. Sega should be blamed for not following development closely enough to notice the shit that was going on.

>being this retarded
Sony published the game and had its fingers in it. It's why it's honestly silly no one has looked at sony when it comes to missing features

I actually kept wondering the whole time why people thought there was multiplayer

I mean, we haven't been shown multiplayer even once...

I guess that's what I get for looking at the content and official content updates rather than listen to some retard give interviews

How is the game on PC then?

>Developer "explains" very vaguely to not "LOOK FOR A MULTIPLAYER EXPERIENCE" in a fucking tweet

Wow, you guys are so right. Fuck us?

who exactly got payed out in that suit?

Sony just didn't force them to keep it on Sony platforms and allowed them to self-publish elsewhere.

Everyone and their dog can release a game on steam/gog.

No shit. What is false advertisement is the box lying about multiplayer, which it does.

don't remove the sticker

Are you a retard? Serious question.

I've multiple independent instances of people wanting to file class action lawsuits.

it won't be long until one of them builds a good enough case and goes forward.

The current advertising trailers/screenshots for the game all show things that are not in the game. Including a completely wrong UI

only 1.25M wow

Sony can't get sued for a game they didn't publish

All they did was pay for a physical PS4 version

What exactly was false advertised? You can't sue someone for releasing a shit game just because you thought it was good.

if you believe anything sean murray said you don't know shit about video games

youtube.com/watch?v=A8P2CZg3sJQ

Watch the colbert show interview
>So can you see what you look like?
>No, the only way you can see what you look like.....is if someone else sees you
>Wow, so can you see people, other players in this game?
>Yes you can, but the universe is sooooo huge you'll probably never find them :^)

>two people seeing each other on the first day

MIND = BLOWN

truly amazing

>Why can't we see each other Sean?
>I'M SO BLOWN AWAY THAT PEOPLE MET DAY ONE, WOW
>But Sea-
>WE KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN, BUT SO SOON, WOW, TRULY AMAZING

>wow I can't believe it we were able to meet each other at the same place even though we never saw each other despite being in the exact same spot it was amazing

Sup Forums knew it wasn't. Until release, no one here was talking about multiplayer, or they'd say it wasn't in/the devs said you'd never run into another person

\Suddenly after release everyone turned into a tard who expected WoW in space

>dude like 2 years ago he said there'd be multiplayer!
>He is required to keep those features mentioned years ago! Games do NOT change over development
Please show the claim of multiplayer dated no more than 6 months before release. Almost every video tossed around is a year or more old.

I don't even give a fuck about the game but the amount of stupidity going on in order to push a meme is retarded

>But you guys didn't even met
>....I still think it was cool
Were those streamers delusional, or did hello games pay them?

>You can't sue someone for releasing a shit game just because you thought it was good.

>Sega of America will pay out $1.25 million to settle a class-action suit brought against it and Gearbox Software that claimed the two companies falsely advertised Aliens: Colonial Marines by using faked demos of the game at E3 and other trade shows, under a settlement plan filed with the court today.

Apparently you can.

like a week before release a BR normalfag actually wanted me to buy the game to play with him

I tried to explain to him there was no multiplayer but he didn't believe me

>the box false advertises
No it doesn't.

They made claims years ago and retards here think devs can be sued for not keeping features mentioned years ago.

Next up, I'm suing tripwire for removing the martial artist class from KF2. It was promised when the game as announced, that is false advertising.

b-but i-it does if you remove the correction they made to that one box in EU

Maybe a suit will happen, but It won't go anywhere. The ones of these that are successful, like the Nvidia GTX 970 3.5/4 GB suit can show specific quantifiable differences between the advertising and the product. And usually these differences are things explicitly listed on the box.

Tripwire and the release of KF2 is fucking ripe for a lawsuit.

The correction sticker is considered "the box" for these purposes.

You're being a fucking retard
>Dev promises major feature, in several interviews
>Even says on twitter the day before launch meeting people is still possible, just not likely
>It's not included
>OMG GUYS HE'S ALLOWED TO MAKE PROMISES AND THEN BREAK THEM WITHOUT LETTING ANYONE KNOW SO HE STILL GETS SALES BASED ON THOSE PROMISES, ENTITLED SHITLORDS

twitter.com/NoMansSky/status/762689080245252096?lang=en

>The odds of players crossing paths is pretty much zero
He still says it's possible even though he fucking knows there's literally no multiplayer in the coding

Gearbox took sega's money for Aliens and put it into Memelands. sega shouldn't have to pay anything

or we can dox him

...

>look at product
>the feature isn't there
>is it a problem? yes = don't buy, no = buy
isn't not hard

retards like you going out about promises is what is making early access a success

Thats a nice marketing trick. Promise features then rescind them a couple weeks before release so the uninformed casual will buy.

youtube.com/watch?v=AE0nuW-mQ8A

Its shillin hours

>gearbox jewed sega out of their money
>because of it sega is losing even more money
sucks to be sega

So if I sell you on a game that I tell you has mountains of features, you can do LITERALLY ANYTHING and I say these things are present over and over and over again, in every interview for over a year, and then drop radio silence for 6 months, release the game and it has 0 promised features (but its okay, I said at least 1 of the promised features wasn't in anymore TWO DAYS before release!!), you're going to be okay with that? Neat mentality.

youtube.com/watch?v=ojrf7oxVo8M

Tweet literally right above that one.

>To be super clear - No Man's Sky is not a multiplayer game. Please don't go in looking for that experience.

I don't understand how you can misunderstand this statement.

Also, pretty much zero = zero

last week?

Seriously OP, educate yourself on what false advertising is. I work in retail and deal with brain dead customers every single day that want to come in and get pissed at me because an add will be for a Samsung 32' TV for $50 off. But then we are sold out and don't have them and they yell about it being false advertising, or that we misled them. Then they will go off demanding we give them some other random ass item $50 off to make them happy and they don't understand when we tell them no. Fuck them and fuck you as well.

also it could've meant anything

he could've been referring to seeing things named by another player since it's actually kinda rare due to the sheer quantity

it's a twitter post, not a long thought press statement to market the game

Get rekt faggot.

He said in no uncertain terms on multiple occasions prior to the games release that it was a multiplayer.

A backpedaling tweet AFTER the games release and after he's been found out to be a lying sack of shit only serves to further emphasize the point that he lied.

Why is your dick so small :(

He literally said there was multiplayer on Colbert

Who the fuck cares if it is multiplayer? The games main issues aren't multiplayer but the massive world and crafting system but for some reason zero customization options for anything but pre made ships.

The courts decided Gearbox would not be held accountable as well

>The only way you can see what you look like is if someone sees you
>Turns out nobody can see you because there's no multiplayer
>WOW SEAN WHY DO YOU LIE

Why would Sony get sued when Hello games self published NMS? Sony didn't even made the trailer and demo
They are just the distributor for PSN, google it

>sued for false advertisement
>1.25m settlement
Who gets the money?

People defending sean murray/no mans sky make me confused.

How does one live with such denial of reality?

This is mad fire nigga

Mostly lawyers. People who bought the game might get $10, or maybe in-store credit from wherever they bought it.

The point of these law suits is that that $1.25 million hurts the company, to convince them not to do it again, and send a warning to other companies that this behavior isn't acceptable. The purpose is not to repay all the customers.

If you, as a customer, wanted to get a sizable payment, you have the right to not join the class-action and sue on your own (paying for your own lawyer), but that'd be a lot harder to prove you've somehow been hurt by the company's practices.

Why are people surprised he lied and that the game didn't have what was promised?

Everyone who is trying to sell you something is dishonest.

Nothing is going to happen to Hello Games.

>multiple bars in a row about killing Sean
Golden

No Man's Sky definitely had a fake misleading trailer so I'm not sure what the sony defense tards think they're doing.

I guess Wind Waker HD is multiplayer too thanks to the tingle bottles, huh?

Go play Nintendo or something, quit bitching about a game most people actually liked.

Your opinion isn't valuable.

what are you even trying to say

that post was done after saying there was no multiplayer, so obviously he wasn't talking about multiplayer anymore

but people tried to warp the post like it was a backpedal pretending there was multiplayer after all

t.fanboy

Every company that has used deceptions and trickery to promote games should be sued into oblivion.

>Promise multiplayer
>"You can play with friends"
>"Like Dark Souls or Journey"

>4h before releasing the game
>"OMG, TO BE CLEAR! THERE IS NO MULTIPLAYER"

That should cover it!

The tweets were posted at the same time and were read as a pair by most people, if he didn't mean for them to be read as a pair he would have said something after all those people read them as a pair, but he didn't.

>weeks
try 1 day

>"Like Dark Souls or Journey"
never said ever

And then he proceeded to tell us those things werent in the game before release

>you can play with your friend if you're sitting next to each other in the same room

youtu.be/A8P2CZg3sJQ?t=500

That tweet was before release buddy

Dark souls also isn't a "multiplayer game" but it still has multiplayer

He actually said it
>"Seamless multiplayer experience, just like dark souls or journey"

it's on video , check the hundreds of videos describing Sean Murrey lies,

I am to lazy to pinpoint to you.

>What are preorders

>"Can you grief other players?"
>"[laughs] A little."

WOW. I DIDN'T KNOW YOU CAN GRIEF IN SINGLE PLAYER.

Thankfully you can't sue somebody just because you're butt-hurt, faggot..

Guize, is No Man's Sky the world's first single player MMO game?

you mean that thing you shouldn't use and can cancel at last minute unless you were dumb enough to do it digitally on the platform that says "no refunds"?

I hate that meme because single player MMO is actually a real thing (aka .hack//, SAO games, etc..)

>implying multiplayer is the only thing they lied about
lol

>pretty much zero=zero

No, that's SWTOR.

7:58

>"if it does happen (multiplayer) you'll be aware of that"
>"think of like Journey, Dark Souls"


GET FUCKING REKT.

People are so set in hating this they are either ignoring or being flat out dumb

Do you know what seamless is? He meant multiplayer like the soapstone messages and ghosts

You can for false advertising. Something like waiting until a few hours before release to tell everybody that there isn't a major feature that you promised to include sounds about right.
