The 12 best space games (before No Man’s Sky)

In a recent statement, Sean Murray from Hello Games has detailed the first-day patch/update for No Man’s Sky. Planets have moved. Environments have changed biomes. As far as the impressions regarding the leaked version go, patient players who waited until “Hello Games” actually released the title will be treated to what is actually the version that the developers were aiming for thanks to the day-one patch.

Hello Games has also promised bigger galaxies, more diverse planets and extreme hazards like blizzards and dust storms. Being a survival game, everything needs resources – from your suit to your ship’s thrusters – but these resources are always where you need them, so you never find yourself stranded on a planet with nothing to power your vessel.

Hello Games wants to ensure that the players witness memorable terrain that you will be excited to tell your friends about.

A player with an early copy of No Man’s Sky has already claimed to have seen-effectively, since it’s not literally possible-everything there is to see in the game, but a day-one patch will change all that in more ways than one.

Planets – we’ve added dead moons, low atmosphere and extreme hazardous planets.

He also mentioned that the No Man’s Sky servers were wiped Sunday, Aug. 7, and will get wiped again on Monday.

Some players who purchased a collectors edition can obtain a special ship with a hyperdrive already installed. Most of the time these locations will contain chests and containers holding valuable loot, but it’s locked away from the player unless you have an Atlas Pass. In the coming updates, Hello Games will let the gamer build bases. Leave your starting planet, head into the space and open the galactic map to check, with the right stick, the glowing line you’ll need to follow to go to the next system. The trading will be deeper; feeding of creatures will be different as each has their own diet. “People using these cheats were ruining the game for themselves, but people are weird and can’t stop themselves ¯/_ (シ) _/¯” Murray wrote.

“Lighting and texture resolution have been improved”.

Workaround: In a statement to IGN, No Man’s Sky’s developers stated that “the game has several protocols in place to ensure this doesn’t happen” and supposedly No Man’s Sky redirects you to another NPC with the antimatter.
