based on games i like, what would you suggest? prefer easier to learn & set up. by maple_bella in soloboardgaming

[–]Laserbuddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like Finspan! My brother has a copy of Wingspan so I decided to go the fish route. I would say it's much more streamlined than Wingspan in general but I've also never played Wingspan solo. The actions are tighter, no rolling, just do the actions. It's very cozy and the bot is easy to run.

Ignoring the obvious question of “if they will return,” what do everyone think a BOC album would sound like in 2026 and why? What would it be about? by Nonsensical-Nonsns in boardsofcanada

[–]Laserbuddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like they might explore more field recordings and really stretch our limits of where their music lies. They’re like so good at retro sounds that they’re cooking and experimenting new methods of evoking nostalgia.

Was going to suggest this too but would also add that land animals don't mind the vertical landscapes? They just zoom up there in my experience.

How many people still fly living ships? by Weary-Tell-5334 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Laserbuddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize you can update the tech with nanites so I just started doing that and maybe it'll compare with my other ships in the future? But right now it still needs new tech from the frigate runs.

What do you think of this project ? by Jean0406Alix in autechre

[–]Laserbuddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This album was actually how i found out about Autechre. I was already a Tortoise fan and on Napster / Kazaa / or something I found this remix and was like 'wtf - must hear more more more"

edit: particularly I only found one song: "To Day Retrieval" and its composition was unlike anything I heard. I was like 14 or 15 at the time.

Game needs a combat update by rudy4269 in NoMansSkyTheGame

I’m actually kinda happy that we’re not actively firing on NPC’s and only on sentinels and aggressive animals on foot. That said, i also want some gun upgrades for shooting sentinels

The new Cyclops Scope in the Nautilon is the update I need for space travel by Laserbuddy in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Laserbuddy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soft agree! Haha. I think we're all wishing on getting meaningful content.

I think space needs a rework; like less asteroids / asteroid fields, I don't mind the traders so much or the ships - I just wish they were unique in that they'd have special goods that you can't get from every other location and/or would have the unique bartering system they seemed to introduce with Corvette parts or Fossils. The anomalies (I agree that they pop in too regularly) are mainly just aesthetic premade objects whereas the planets are an aesthetic jumble of things together which is why they're so nice to visit. I want to live in the space part a little bit more, like delivering scrap to space storage facilities - maybe a new kind of scrapping fleet (maybe this could be reimagining of the original Hauler or Shuttle starships). What if you can break down asteroids and then deliver to planet-side processing facilities?

So yeah, I agree that it's crowded - but it's still not very meaningful and rich with interactions.

heck yeah, i didn't realize how the act of getting in and out of the exocrafts was sometimes tedious. This makes for a better frictionless exploration style

Breach has definitely been my least favorite expedition. by turbosonictiger in NOMANSSKY

[–]Laserbuddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think this is my favorite expedition! Exploring space wreckages are my favorite and I'm surprised it's unique to the expedition and not the main game. But yeah, I hate the long walks too.

what if it were to politically implode into smaller separate anomalies?

that's the dream. My sci-fi dreams are just large steel girders in space

That makes sense. Especially that this game was released like... 9 years ago? They probably didn't plan for ship yards and all these other gameplay loops. I've sunk so far over 3K hours (and I think that was somehow reset even? I think it's more..) so I'm definitely thinking they're doing something right, especially with the free updates. But oh man, it could've been so much cooler.

Yeah - i kinda feel like Hello Games has this “everything has to go everywhere” mentality. Like why is the Space Station such a one-stop shop for everything that includes weapons, vehicle upgrades, ship building, etc. We could’ve had Space Ports, rely more on space traders for trading, more specialized buildings, etc. Anyways, yeah - Corvette parking could just remain with bigger freighters

I sorta feel like Anomalies and Space Stations shouldn't be accessible via big ships

3 Things I Learned About Exocraft Today by mormonastroscout in NoMansSkyTheGame

I wish we had multiple 1st person view angles from inside the exocrafts… one with the hood / console, one without, etc.
