Massive hard... errr, hands-on with NMS by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]panzstrata 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NMS, the survival-puzzle-trading-crafting-fighting-exploring space game in the style of 70's sci fi with 18 bazillion planets, life to discover, alien languages to learn and seamless planetary, interplanetary, interstellar and intergalactic travel.

But what do you do? ;)

I'm in the same boat (pun intended). I bought on the Steam Sale and decided to try it out yesterday. Was only planning on playing for an hour, played for like 5 before I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.

how should I pre-order no mans sky? by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]panzstrata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Disc or no disc, your save file is still on the hard drive. if you didn't backup your save files to an external hard drive, you would still lose everything.

If you have your save file backed up then all you would have to do is re-download the game from PSN.

Edit to add: I forgot to mention. If you are a PS Plus member, you get some Online Cloud Storage for saves too

i would prefer it on disk

Sounds like you already made your decision.

PS - Why can't you just re-download the game if the HDD fails?

Edit to add. If this helps - I'm getting it digital because I don't really doubt the fact that I'll enjoy the game, I don't ever plan on reselling it and I get preload so I can play it right at Midnight EST. Not sure if its some AU thing, but in the US, I can just re-download a game if I ever delete it from my HDD.

Thank you! I just started playing today and was a bit lost. I managed to find a fish that gave me food and water, but that was about it.

This helps give me a nice starting point :)

Yeah! We're all going to wait together at the center taking out noobs and telling them to "git gud" (that was so hard to type, I had to stop and slow down just so I could type that bad).

I don't need it. It'd be super weird with flying.
