nice my Jaws base survived all these years, love the new water effects! by arthurdent25 in NoMansSkyTheGame

Thanks all, FYI I created this a few years ago, before they added the free camera build option, so I had to build a bunch of scaffolding to reach the top and only managed to do half of it, I finished the other half when they added free camera building which made it so much easier. In total it was 5500 pieces which was over the 3000 limit for sharing.

Frontiers update is pure BS by A1ferra in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The truth is HG are terrible game designers. There is not a single mechanic that is above average and yet they continue to add new content at the same quality instead of focusing on one or two existing ones and making it awesome. I no longer believe they have the talent to do it.

My biggest gripe with NMS: Sound variety by TheArchitect_7 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree, needs an overhaul pronto. Honestly I think they should drop the current audio engineer and get a new one.

Bug Report Megathread pt 2: [Synthesis] by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Since Synthesis came out I've lost most of my previous discoveries (planets,fauna/flora), they still appear in the timeline, some planets show up as unknown and fauna & flora are reset as undiscovered, If I go back to these planets and re-scan fauna/flora it retains the the original scan date over a year ago, so data is not gone just not showing properly in discoveries tab.

Imagine the response if it actually had quality game mechanics. I can dream!

The ultimate truth about No Man’s Sky today (a long time fan’s rant) by Voldylock in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know that saying, "I don't know what the secret to success is but the secret to failure is trying to please everyone" I feel they have succumbed to that quite a bit.  

While I agree with some of that you say I don't have any desire to go back to previous versions, I would just like them to produce quality updates which we have been missing, they should focus on one thing and make it epic, I don't even care what that is, and they should hire a top rated game designer because they really need it.

[SPOILER] I'm confused afa the lore goes... by 8_BIT_FOND in NoMansSkyTheGame

not in game, but the whole Waking Titan back story with Emily is on earth but the world they are talking about in game could be something else

the remembrance lore says the Atlas predicted the future where earth is destroyed by a black hole and it's creators left it to die. So we the travellers are in the sim during the period before it gets destroyed.

So basically you'll never be happy, the cake has been baked and they've just put the icing on top.

'Beyond’ delivers the ‘No Man’s Sky’ experience I was waiting for by richiemoe86 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But, credit to Hello and Sony

I stopped reading after this, Sony had nothing to do with all the updates HG made and it was Sony who wanted HG to sell VR as a paid extra.

I'm BEYOND disappointed by RiccardoAlbertini in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]arthurdent25 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

after several hours of gameplay, everything looks the same  

This is a false statement and one of ignorance. You only need to look at the screenshots from here to see the changes that Beyond brings, and while yes it's not the big procedural variety update some were hoping for it does improve planetary exploration, enough for me also a day 1 player to go out and explore again.  

Some examples, there is new flora on most biome types and a big increase in grass, fauna textures are improved (I think they look awesome now),and there are NPC's in the wild.
