No Man's Sky Expedition 4: Emergence

Across the universe, planets have been blighted by the activity of Titan Worms. These colossal sandworms plough through the desert sands, blacking out the sun as they arc overhead, and defiling the very terrain with their cursed dust.
Travellers on this Expedition will find themselves stranded on planet Wasan, a barren world ravaged by dust storms and infested with Titan Worms. It is up to you to locate the Titan Worm impact sites, destroy the wretched Hungering Tendrils, and collect the Vile Spawn that lingers behind. The vessels of the many mouths must be purged!
As travellers cleanse planets of cursed dust and hunt the titanic sandworms, they will unravel the threads of a dark narrative. Complete the expedition route to reveal the history of a dark cult, and ultimately confront the Atlas with evidence of this indelible stain upon the universe.

Same! I enjoyed the game from launch date but I understood the critics. It's AMAZING what they've done and keep on doing with the game! I'm loving these seasons or "expeditions" too! They're so great!

[@Dexter102900]

@@zZAD I feel exactly the same! Had since launch too. One thing I'd say tho about expeditions, I understand the trend about seasons in gaming, FOMO and all, but I wish there was a way to replay the expeditions. Maybe if you do it in the "expedition time" you get extras like quicksilver but you can still replay them and maybe even still get the rewards. I just don't always have the time whenever there's an expedition. :-(

[@krys5284]

Same here bro! I waited for this game for years to release since the first time it was announced. Then, I played since the moment it released on steam for 2 days straight and racked up like 30-40h and pretty much done everything in the game at the time and stopped playing. Now, years later, I keep coming back and enjoying every single update because this game is just so damn amazing!

I don't know if the most, don't get me wrong the game is fantastic and has grown a lot, but putting it against Warframe I believe they still have a ways to go. Definitely on the correct path tho.

That because they aren’t wasting half their team on pr and media progress and updates. It also helps that they don’t say.

Having played this Expedition, I hope that Hello Games can keep some of the elements and shift them over to regular play. I would love to have Titan Worm pits located on worlds with worms appearing. Nothing like the expedition where every world rendezvous planet was infested. Not every planet in the main game has worms (in fact, they are few and far between). It would just lend more reality to the universe, instead of the Travellers and the three races being ubiquitous everywhere, there would be another lifeform that is also present to bring a little more cohesion.

Amazing game,and optimization of the engine is one of the best i saw. Game is running smooth on solid 60fps on max settings everywhere and in every situation,this is the way things should be done,there is no one frame drop. Also constant flow of new content they are adding for free it's unbelivable because other companies would ask more money,this are basically full developed DLCs. For everybody who's is looking open world space exploration game,there is no better title,No Man's sky is the best. Keep up with good work guys!

[@EQOAnostalgia]

True, i just wish it ran so silky smooth and gorgeous in VR but it's to be expected with my rig considering how much there is to render and keep track of. Most other VR titles are within a contained environment so high fidelity graphics are much easier to achieve. Even so, i look forward to the day when i have a monster rig to run VR maxed out, and with next gen HMD's in 4k lol. I mean... that's going to be NUTS dude.

The update is (apparently) mostly narrative driven so I'm hoping there will be some good lore & history. Otherwise being able to make a lasting difference (from the choices the player makes rather than solely narratively) on the galaxy in some way would be great.
