All i've ever wanted from this game is more varied worlds to explore. Can't wait to get into this.

[@moosechuckle]

Same. I’ve got over 1000 hours on Xbox, and at some point it just felt repetitive… probably around hour 700. So, for the past 3-4 years, I’ve been hoping and waiting for an update like this.

[@rosesareredbutzerglingssti9290]

Now all we need are Jovian worlds where we can build floating bases and/or find floating settlements.

[@voltus20]

​@@rosesareredbutzerglingssti9290 ooh that would be so cool. Being able to make orbital stations/settlements floating above the gaseous surface. Maybe even make some of them pirate hideouts/havens hidden on regulated systems, where you can do smuggling without having to enter pirate systems.

[@peacefindersimply5001]

​@moosechuckle literally im same position, it take hundreds of hours to feel repetitive(which is amazing) but eventually did and been waiting about 3 years for more diversity. Exploration is my favorite part of no man sky (:

[@intimaspace646]

Yep, all the amazing updates kept rolling in, and I just kept thinking, I'm 100% back when you update the worlds for newer technological capabilities, something more in-line with what we saw with Light No Fire. And here it is....PART1? So there's possibly more... wow. Can't wait to play it.

No Man's Sky is really one of the rare success stories of updating a game and fixing it after all the negative reviews of the initial release and some people even calling it a scam and false advertising with how bare bones the initial release was. Congratulations to the dev team for sticking with the game for so long and constantly updating it.

[@Gabi-bv9ux]

It was 100% a scam. They didnt release into early access or say so much was planned for later. They sold a product and the product was not what had been sold. Hence a scam.

​@@Gabi-bv9uxbut thay fixed all of it. So?

[@Marko_184]

​@@salata716 They fixed it because other wise they were going to be sued and the developers probably getting blacklisted by other gaming companies. Not saying that way they did was anything less than impresive mind you, but they were pretty incentivised to do the "right" thing

[@aliciafraser1835]

​@@Marko_184Not to be that person, but it's comments like this that bring to question why anyone should ever try to fix screw ups at all if that's the sort of attitude they can expect. Also there's been plenty of reporting that leans closer to it being a lot more complicated a situation than "it was just a scam" Not to mention the countless actual scams that have and continue to happen where the scammers get off scott free, hello games could have easily done the same thing other devs have and continue to do, vanish with pockets full of cash, but they didn't. All that to say, I dunno about that take off yours.

[@Marko_184]

@@aliciafraser1835 That would have ruined the reputation not only of the company but of the developers themselves, once again they might even get blacklisted by another gamimg companies if they tried to find work in other places like ea or ubisoft.

This is the game I keep coming back to, the fundament of my collection. The only game that exists where an entire cosmos is available to do anything you want to within it - a true metaverse. And it just keeps getting better and more amazing - since day one it has only ever improved, and with - is it now 27 free updates? - it manages to surprise and astonish constantly. I've put more than 4000 hours in this game, over the last eight years, and I am about to put even more in with this update. Best game money I ever, ever, ever spent.

[@shadowryth7308]

What is there to do besides look at a planet for 20 mins then leave to the next. Maybe slap a random base that doesn’t really serve much of a purpose cause ur just gonna travel to other galaxies to look at more planets.

[@Kazemahou]

@@shadowryth7308 Just recently, I followed the plotline where I tracked down the Autophages, and I am currently working on befriending them, getting them to trust me, and to figure out the secret of how Atlantium affects machine intelligences. During this, I am also looking for a Wonder to show to the Atlas in order to comfort it, since it has just learned that it has sixteen minutes to live - yet there seems to be evidence that data survives destruction. Beyond this mystical storyline, I am also working hard to achieve perfect contentment levels in my settlement, and to grow the population. I haven't had time to do mercenary missions, or to try my hand at being a space pirate - though I have visited the secret pirate stations. I don't know what your problem is, but I have more to do than just gawk at planets. That said, the new community adventure is beginning, so I am going to take time out to play through that campaign. Apparently, you do not know No Man's Sky very well?

@@Lucifronz By that logic, it's also 100% pointless from OP to compare NMS to "AAA games" given that there isn't a single one that's like NMS. Also, even though it was developed by a small-ish team initially, it also launched at 60 EUR, so I wouldn't even say that it's not a triple-A title, making the original take pretty stupid to begin with. The fact that it's 8 years old and you can get it for cheap now doesn't really change this.

As an avid explorer, I looooove love love No Man's Sky. However, after about 300-400 hours, I really only kept playing for the Expeditions and occasionally the new updates.

NMS is officially the best comeback story in gaming of all time. Hello Games studio have truly outdone themselves since the launch of this game

[@icreateworlds]

This is literally the update I always dreamed about since NMS got started with the updates years ago. As an illustrator what I love about NMS is the whole visual experience , namely , the worlds. I was always so frustrated with the lack of variety in the universe and every time i saw an update coming i got even more frustrated because most updates focused on gameplay and not on the actual planetary universe as I wanted. My "gameplay" on this game is exploring. Walking for hours just admiring the landscapes and therefore having really interesting alien places to discover was my thing and also what frustrated me for the lack of variety. I´m one of the original 2016 players and one that didnt hated the game at all. In fact I still miss the old 2016 terrain generation that gave me such epic alien vistas that were taken out of the game when Next update arrived and terrain became more naturalistic than it was in 2016. So for years i´ve been playing NMS mostly waiting for new types of terrain , alien worlds and visual stuff to discover and "photograph". As a professional illustrator NMS has inspired me for years now and I´m sure this new update will continue to do that. Thank you.

[@Reeceline]

As another original 2016 player that also didn't mind the release game... this comment made me smile. I'm no means an artist but love art and photography and echo your sentiments.

​@@Cramblit my point is comparing free update DLC from nms to 200$+ paradox . but hey if you think bare bone game with somehow less content than prequel and clusterfuck release like cs 2 and lock content behind paid dlc is worth it . you are part of the problem

[@Cramblit]

@@GravityApproaching 1) 200$ (that frequently go on sale for upwards of 75% off), for 10 years worth of DLCs, is more than fair. Especially considering how the major QOL improvements, etc. are given for free, and 95% of that 200$ is literally just cosmetic, or music options that is completely 100% optional. But you keep blowing shit out of proportion and skewing the facts to make a point, and you say I'm the problem? 2) None of the DLCs are required in Paradox games, and there are no "missing features". That's a B.S. garbage excuse for 95% of the situations. The only 2 games I'd argue that is a fair assessement is Imperator Rome, and Victoria 2. 3) Of course there is "locked content" behind DLCs.. Even back in 2001-05 I couldn't play Morrowinds expansion stuff and its content without paying for the expansion pack.. this isn't new, nor is it greedy. -------------------------- The only reason NMS is getting away with free DLCs, is becauase they are keeping their team small, and that's a shame, because if they were allowed to make paid DLCs (which they aren't, because Sean made a promise), then their team could actually grow, and we'd be seeing even more epic updates to NMS. No, I think you're the problem chief. You want everything for free, and think devs shouldn't be paid. And before you say you don't think that.. go read what you said.. where the hell is money going to come from if the gamers aren't paying for DLCs, and devs are working for free? Again, NMS is a unique and very small niche situation, and I'll bet you anything, Light No fires, is not going to have free updates, unless they again, plan to keep their team super small, where the ocassional purchases every year will let them barely get by. Again, it's a shame, because they deserve a lot more, and deserve more money. Yea.. YOU are the problem.

How is it possible that every time I think there won't be any more updates to the world in NMS, just expeditions and some slight content additions Hello Games pulls a massive update that makes the game even better than it was before? Great job. Thank You Hello Games!!

[@hapythots]

I havent played in a while, but after seeing this update i came here to just show support. What youve all done/been doing with this is insane. The content youve added, made, and changed in this game in crazy. I wish every game making company learned from you guys, and followed your example. This game deserves nothing but love, and accolades. Youve made this one of the greatest games in existence. I dont care if someone doesnt like the genre, this game demands respect, and its objectively earned. I hope you are all proud of everything involved with this game. Not in some basic version, but in a legit life way. Youve done something totally unique. You did the best job that could have been done, and proceed to make it better with every update. As a person that has crashed many economies in the No Mans Sky universe, and attempted to fly around in VR lol, even if i havent played it in while, I will forever speak nothing but good things about this game and the makers whenever it gets brought up. Good job to all of you. And thank you for what youve done. I mean it. You all deserve it.

[@vikaskumarpatel5017]

Yesterday, I was showing a few update trailers. I told them that if they had No Man's Sky on their PCVR or PSVR 2, they'll never play any other game. I was like I don't even know if they'll release another update while we are talking. And there you go! Lol..... I hope I could find more people in VR to play this game but just insane. I bought the game on launch and I like it enough to play 10 hours and wasn't disappointed like other people. I didn't used to watch that much KZbin or gaming news back in the day. Now, playing the game for 100 hours in 2020 and picking it every now and then to the PSVR 2 update.... It's just an insane journey.

[@Mustang7120]

Haven't played in VR lately. Have they patched it to where you can use the sticks on the move controllers for the ship yet? The "imaginary" flight sticks on the ship kill it for me.

I'm from 2199 and we got No Man's Sky 2

[@cg56578]

@@chrisa8863 I never thought I’d be telling this story, but the truth has to be known. My name is Alex, and I'm from the year 2300. Things are not as they used to be. In my time, the world is a shadow of its former self, and the spark that ignited the downfall was none other than a gaming company. It all started with the acquisition of a small but beloved studio by EA Games. I remember the announcement vividly. The gaming community was buzzing with mixed emotions when EA bought out Hello Games, the creators of No Man’s Sky. Some were hopeful, others skeptical. No one could have predicted the series of events that followed. The first sign of the impending disaster came with an update to No Man’s Sky. It was supposed to be a routine patch, maybe with a few bug fixes and minor improvements. Instead, it introduced the game's first paid update. Among the new features was an exclusive spaceship, priced at an astronomical $80. The outcry was immediate. Gamers everywhere protested, but their voices were drowned out by the relentless marketing machine of EA. As months turned into years, EA’s influence grew insidiously. They didn’t just stop at gaming companies; they began acquiring businesses across all sectors. Slowly, quietly, they bought out tech firms, entertainment giants, even manufacturing and food production companies. Their reach extended into every aspect of daily life, and no one seemed to notice until it was too late. With every acquisition, EA imposed their corporate ethos: profit above all. Subscriptions became mandatory for basic services, microtransactions were integrated into everyday purchases, and their brand of consumer manipulation became the norm. Society transformed into a dystopian landscape where freedom was bartered for convenience and entertainment. Then, the unthinkable happened. EA used its immense wealth and influence to infiltrate governments. Policies were subtly altered, regulations bent to favor their ever-expanding empire. Before long, they weren’t just a corporate entity; they were the de facto rulers of the world. Humanity had been enslaved not by force, but by a slow, insidious takeover. Life in 2300 is bleak. We work for EA, we live under their rules, and our very existence is dictated by their whims. Those who resist are silenced, their digital footprints erased as if they never existed. The freedoms we once took for granted are distant memories, replaced by a pervasive sense of oppression and despair. I’m one of the few who remember the world before EA's reign. My parents told me stories of a time when people could choose their own paths, when entertainment was a joy, not a chain. I hold onto those memories, using them as fuel to resist in any way I can. We’re few, but we’re determined. We hack their systems, distribute information, and keep the hope of freedom alive. Every time I see that cursed spaceship in No Man’s Sky, a symbol of the moment our world began its descent into tyranny, I feel a renewed determination to fight back. EA may have enslaved humanity, but they haven't crushed our spirit. The story of our resistance is just beginning, and I believe, someday, we will reclaim our world. This is my message to you, from the year 2300. Don’t let history repeat itself. Stay vigilant, cherish your freedom, and remember: power unchecked can corrupt absolutely. Learn from our mistakes, and maybe, just maybe, you can prevent the future we now endure.

[@RickyKingPlays]

Since the trailer, I was hyped because of innovation and unique gameplay. After 8 years, I'm still in awe because of dedication and commitment of Sean Murray and Hello Games team. Thank you so much for making No Man's Sky the most praiseworthy game of the century.

Noticeably improved graphics, I noticed planets have really nice looking crevices and more fauna rendering on the switch version, the water looks cool, storms look nice, didn’t notice much of a difference on big bertha (aka my gaming desktop ) except for the clouds, but the pc version already looked gorgeous. I’m sad because my home base on the switch was on an earth like planet, with blue water and green grass that would glow at night, had sandy islands that looked like the Caribbean, the creatures were also dinosaurs and mammal looking. After the update the planet is now red with red grass (actual grass now though), the trees are red and purple, the grass doesn’t glow at night, the dark rocks have become darker, the sand looks dark with an orange glow, the water now has a green tint, and there are giant spider creatures everywhere.
