general

at least from what i've heard

i guess i won't judge until i play it for myself, which may never happen

realistically empires would be weird

even if you can do cheat warp and break the rules of the universe you can't have instant transmitting informations

so you would need like delivery ships to bring news to places

we can't even have succesful empires on earth

add all of space to that with the mentality of people from the year 2016

internet external to the game

everyone meets at the center of the galaxy and coordinates mining and building

again i don't know the mechanics of the game

but if people can fight i can't imagine how that would work out if it's 'realistic'

you can't set up borders because people can zoom right past it

nevermind that actually, i have no clue how the game works

probably shouldn't be talking about it

i'd totally just be a space pirate and destroy every ship i encounter

because i'm pretty sure you can do that

i mean who wouldn't

i just mean an organized group of thousands of players

well going by it being 'space minecraft'

i don't know why you can't just go to a single planet

and just have everything you need

the point of the game is to get to the center of the universe

would the game be able to run on a good laptop, you think?

because that's all i have, a laptop

looking at the specs, i think i'd be fine

but i've been betrayed many times before

ps4 can't handle it

No mans sky isn't multiplayer

yes it is

people aren't happy because in the last few hours, 2 people tried to meet up but couldn't see each other

also on their twitter they say it isn't

on the same planet?

or whatever

nvm found an article

sounds stupid

Hunger Games... IN SPACE

I just unlocked a level 42 side quest in Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE at level 30

after every single one before that was level 21 or lower

the first hard thing in this game on hard mode

a boss that one shots you because you're 11 levels underleveled

Great balance Kappa

kek

yup, being 11 levels under means you die in hard mode

I mean that makes sense but being underleveled being your very first challenge in hard mode doesn't make it sound that hard

it isn't

i think i'm actually overleveled and that allowed me to unlock this side quest early

i unlocked the arena, which is a great grinding spot and completeing it unlocks really good armors so i finished the easiest level

apparently the meetup in No Man's Sky didn't work because the developers didn't think it would happen the first day and hadn't made the servers prepared for it, on top of how many people were overloading them

I really need to see what that talent looks like

they didn't expect people to overload the servers?

that's all people do these days

it's literally the problem every hyped game has to deal with nowadays

how could they not expect it

should just get the best servers right from the start

its because they the get the amount of servers they expect to need after the hype dies

the hype usually dies because of the shittiness of the servers though

it's like they're asking for the game to be disliked

yeah

like Pokemon Go

exactly

but wait, how would space piracy work if you can't find other players?

i need someone to walk the space plank!

well i guess it would be NPCs

but that's kinda boring

it would quickly get old

thats why they need to make an empire

how would that change anything?

finding other players and creating a target for piracy

well from what i've read, you literally can't find anyone at all

even if you know where they are

there is no multiplayer?

because the developers didn't expect anyont to find each other yet and haven't fully implemented it

that's a shitty excuse to be honest, don't release the game if it's not finished

do you realize how many more servers they'll need for player interaction?

no i don't because i have literally no idea how it works, and millions of other people also don't. all of those people feel lied to and will hate the developers for it

right now i'm guessing most of the game is done client side with server handshaking to prevent cheating and to have synced planets between players would require everything to be done server side
