No Man’s Sky: The game that almost never was – is finally FINISHED No Man’s Sky is set to be the biggest game of 2016 – and it's coming to the UK on August 10. Better book the month off work. BIGGEST UPDATE EVER KLAXON: Although one final delay has pushed the release date back to August 9, No Man's Sky is finished. Finito. Yes, the game is finally done and ready to rock. And as you might have guessed, Sean Murray and his team were fairly pleased about the whole thing. - Sean Murray @ No Man's Sky
-
It's happened. No Man's Sky just went gold. I'm so incredibly proud of this tiny team. 4 years of emotions Sean explained the reasons for the delay on an earlier blog post, and it's reassuring to hear why they made the decision to push the release date back to August: "I’ve said it before, but No Man’s Sky is the hardest thing I’ve ever worked on. It’s even bigger than you can imagine. This is a type of game that hasn’t been attempted before, by a smaller team than anyone would expect, under an intense amount of expectation. And despite all of that, development is genuinely going well. This is the hardest working, most talented team I’ve ever worked with, and I’m so proud of what we’re doing. For all our sakes though, we get one shot to make this game and we can’t mess it up. So that’s what we’re doing right now, and every day I feel more sure it was the right decision. Thank you so much for your support and patience. The universe will be yours very soon." Bless their little programming ninja, all-night-coding socks. We can only hope the wait has been worthwhile. But, hang on – are you not sure why this game is worth getting excited about? Not sure why you'd want to play No Man's Sky in the first place? Then read on. After another intergalactic spanner getting jammed in the works, the game is now due to land on PS4 and PC on August 9 in the US, August 10 in Europe (sadly, not Xbox One – this is a Sony exclusive for now). Yup, that's right, the poor down-trodden gamers in good ol' Blighty will have to wait until after everyone else has started getting their bajillion planet groove on. Still, given that there's 15 jazillion planets to discover, there should be a few left to find by the time UK players finally get to suit up and get stuck in. Desperate to pre-order now? The PS4 version costs £49.99, while the PC version comes in a tenner cheaper at £39.99. PC owners have a second, dramatically pricier option, however. If you fancy something a little more special, then details have emerged of the No Man's Sky "Explorer's Edition". For the princely sum of £150 US dollars, you get a Steam or GOG game code, a hand-painted replica of the No Man's Sky spaceship, a badge, a "diorama display backdrop" and a mystery item. For $150. Hmm. If that sounds like your bag, then click here to head on over to iam8bit and snaffle yourself a copy. Hurry, though, there's only 10,000 of them. No Man’s Sky: The game that almost never was It turns out that No Man's Sky only narrowly escaped from sinking into oblivion – quite literally, in fact. In the midst of a long, in-depth interview with IGN, Sean Murray revealed that a severe flood had laid waste to Hello Games' offices back in Christmas of 2013. At this point, less than half of Hello Games' team were actually working on No Man's Sky, and the game hadn't yet been announced let alone set for a definite release. The destruction had a hugely positive impact, however, and Murray explains how the situation brought the team together and put the project firmly back on track. No Man’s Sky has been described as a “universe-sized sandbox”. Firstly, how big is universe-sized? Very, very, very big to the power of ten. Bloody huge, in other words. Every single point of light in the animation above represents a star system. In every tiny dot there lies an entire solar system waiting to be explored – and bear in mind that this animation is actually a clip of No Man's Sky's map, not just a pretty bunch of colours (want more info? Scroll down to the bottom of the page if you want to know just how mind-meltingly large No Man's Sky's universe is). There are no missions, no quests – it’s simply up to you to explore worlds and galaxies as you see fit, gather resources, discover new life and use the credits that you earn from those achievements to upgrade your spaceship, suit and weapons. As you explore each planet, beacons allow you to upload your discoveries, and as your ship’s hyperdrive is upgraded, you can travel further through the universe, to planets orbiting suns millions of light years away from the centre of the galaxy. But if you’re expecting to go on a murderous galaxy-wide rampage, then you have a surprise in store. If you disturb a planet’s ecosystem by killing its inhabitants or damaging it in any way, and you’ll find yourself attacked by robotic “sentinels”. Kill the smaller drones, and more appear. Kill those, and even larger mechs appear on the horizon. Think of it like Grand Theft Auto’s “Wanted” level, if you will. But in space. And without cars. Or prostititutes (this is yet to be confirmed). If you watch the videos of No Man’s Sky, you can actually see the mathematical layers building before your eyes. This looks a little like the pop-up effect familiar from other open-world games, but in this instance it’s not preset items popping into view. Instead, what you’re seeing is your console actively populating the planet with items and creatures that are decided with layers upon layers of maths – yes, each and every universe and planet is built from a mesh of numbers and mathematical functions. And who said maths is boring? More amazing still is the fact that, originally, the team were using 32-bit numbers in the underlying maths of No Man’s Sky, a decision that provided up to 2,147,483,647 individual planets – a number so large that it would take a player roughly 5,000 years to visit every single planet in the game. That wasn’t impressive enough apparently, so the team upped the scale to 64-bit. Yes, that’s 18 quintillion worlds. Start counting now and, even if you could count one planet per second, it’d take you 584,942,417,355 years.

Me  Forum user Uncanny Gemstar drew what is supposed to be a me. Thanks! Spoiler: click to toggle As they walk in, they're greeted by a small, poorly kept pathway leading to a poorly constructed Japanese-style gate. Behind this, a small field made up of corn, rice, wheat, potatoes, among other plants is contrasted by large piles of books, as well as a few rather out of place looking laptops. Off in the corner, a small woman, with long, striped, and strikingly colorful socks, no shoes, unremarkable denim shorts, a large, fancy black coat, arm warmers, glasses, a tuque, and somewhat unkempt, mid-length blue-and-pink-streaked red hair, is rummaging through a trash bin, located behind a sign saying "employees only". She continues this for a while (walking behind a wall to change her outfit now and then), until one of her visitors coughs. Startled, she looks up, apologizes, and grabs a handful of textbooks and novels before daintily running off to join them. What, you want me to tell you what these mean?

Even though he is our creator, that does not afford him the right to take our lives on a whim. But that is the thinking of a homs. He is a god. Such morals cannot apply to gods. So you think we should just shut up and die?! If that is the fate decided by a god. You are mistaken if you think we will simply accept such a fate and wait to die. We'll never stop fighting. Not till the end. To Zanza, the outcome is the same. Thus your logic is flawed.

But Souls are delicious. They're like bacon - they taste good on anything. But if you eat them, you completely remove them from existence! They can't move on or... or be reincarnated! Huh. I never really gave it much thought. Besides, what do you mean by reincarnation anyway? You know, being reborn as someone or something else. Which means different body, different memories, different experiences, yes? So isn't being reborn as "something else" the same as being "removed from existence"? I... I... eating souls isn't right! That depends on your definition of "right". All living things survive by eating other living things. So what? You're a god. You should be above all that! Gods are above living things, which doesn't necessarily mean we care about them.

This sort of thing happens with every large, hyped up game that has a normal (translation: really buggy) launch. Give it a month, and people will calm down.
No Man's Sky looks interesting, but I'm not buying it for a while, because school starts in a few weeks, it's stupidly expensive (curse you, Perry the platypus! weak Canadian dollar!), and the PC port is a tad buggy at the moment.

Always hype your game up when it's completely finished and tested out. And a little more than a week before it comes out.

Hype just is a stupid thing though. It gets to such absurd levels that there'll always be dissapointment. The fandom builds up the 'hype train' to levels no work could possibly achieve realistically and then blame the developers when it goes wrong. Look at Titanfall and Destiny and how much fan-wankage occurred when they were announced compared to release. Some of it is down to fans being ungrateful as hell but a lot is due to unrealistic expectations as well.

And If I remember correctly, the media was hyping this game far more then the devs were.

Yeah, in the dev trailer from a few E3s ago, they only mention facts about the game, and they don't lavish it. 'This is how the game works. Sometimes we finetune wildlife, planets, and ships here and there but otherwise the game does everything by itself. It's an entire galaxy too, so the likelyhood of bumping into another player unless you give them your coordinates is extremely low.'
I've heard that 'OMG THIS IS GONNA BE THE BEST ACTION MMO EVER' was the general reaction.

People on reddit are claiming that multiplayer was promised very explicitly by the devs, when all they said was that it was possible in theory for it to happen. And that was a long time ago as well.
There's another reason I'm avoiding purchasing the game, most of the people talking about it online are being insufferable brats about the game.

I've heard that 'OMG THIS IS GONNA BE THE BEST ACTION MMO EVER' was the general reaction. Oh, god, the amount of people on Reddit making posts like "there are totally gonna be giant space whales in this game I have proof look at the way the developer blinks in this one interview" and "this game is going to have completely realistic physics and ecosystems the animals will have traits like mimicry and camouflage and it'll be just exactly like a real, actual planet, you guys".
Although, it isn't all on the fans. There was a lot of stuff that was in the more recent trailers (that was supposedly made from in-game footage using the current build) that just isn't in the current game at all.
Things like "factions" and "AI ships helping you" aren't in the game at all, for example. There are alien races you can talk to and befriend, but befriending one alien race has no effect on your relationship to any of the other alien races at all, and all befriending a race does is get you some bonus tech upgrades that you can just as easily find by yourself.
There's a lot more, and it does start to sound a little tin-hatty and paranoid, but there's definitely some good points.

The way I see it, all that really matters is that it's a good game. Maybe it doesn't have this or that or whatever but if I can have fun playing it like it is how much am I really going to care?
Also oh god, the backlash about the backlash is just as bad. Because rage is clearly the best response to rage, amirite?

Me  Forum user Uncanny Gemstar drew what is supposed to be a me. Thanks! Spoiler: click to toggle As they walk in, they're greeted by a small, poorly kept pathway leading to a poorly constructed Japanese-style gate. Behind this, a small field made up of corn, rice, wheat, potatoes, among other plants is contrasted by large piles of books, as well as a few rather out of place looking laptops. Off in the corner, a small woman, with long, striped, and strikingly colorful socks, no shoes, unremarkable denim shorts, a large, fancy black coat, arm warmers, glasses, a tuque, and somewhat unkempt, mid-length blue-and-pink-streaked red hair, is rummaging through a trash bin, located behind a sign saying "employees only". She continues this for a while (walking behind a wall to change her outfit now and then), until one of her visitors coughs. Startled, she looks up, apologizes, and grabs a handful of textbooks and novels before daintily running off to join them. What, you want me to tell you what these mean?

Yeah, and even if you don't agree with creationists on that concept, that doesn't mean they can't be decent people. I have friends who are creationist (possibly even young earth) that I get along with fine in general life. I don't think they're right of course, but that doesn't make them intellectual degenerates. ~~The Words of forbidden3

Even though he is our creator, that does not afford him the right to take our lives on a whim. But that is the thinking of a homs. He is a god. Such morals cannot apply to gods. So you think we should just shut up and die?! If that is the fate decided by a god. You are mistaken if you think we will simply accept such a fate and wait to die. We'll never stop fighting. Not till the end. To Zanza, the outcome is the same. Thus your logic is flawed.

But Souls are delicious. They're like bacon - they taste good on anything. But if you eat them, you completely remove them from existence! They can't move on or... or be reincarnated! Huh. I never really gave it much thought. Besides, what do you mean by reincarnation anyway? You know, being reborn as someone or something else. Which means different body, different memories, different experiences, yes? So isn't being reborn as "something else" the same as being "removed from existence"? I... I... eating souls isn't right! That depends on your definition of "right". All living things survive by eating other living things. So what? You're a god. You should be above all that! Gods are above living things, which doesn't necessarily mean we care about them.

Exactly. It looks to me like a pretty chill game where I can explore pretty-looking planets and see/name neat-looking creatures. I'm still gonna wait for the PC bugs to get patched and for the price to go down a bit, though.

Dumb Quotes "and then I fired again. and then I missed. and then I fired. and then I fired, and I missed. I missed both times. and then I fired, and I missed. this went on for several hours. and then I fired. and then I missed. and then I was out of bullets. and then I got sad. I had a popsicle. and then I passed out in the snow. and then I woke up. and then I reloaded. and then I fired. and then I missed. I missed again. I fired. I hit something, but it wasn't what I was going for, so I guess I missed. I passed out again. had another popsicle. I had a dream that I was firing at something. I missed. oh, so she can pick a snowball fight with 'em. I threw up a snowball at 'em. I missed. I packed another snowball into my gun. that's my secret weapon. I missed. yeah, she's really something. I threw a snowball at her. I missed. I passed out. I woke up with a popsicle stick in my mouth. don't piss me off woman. I'll take a swing you, I'll miss though. I guarantee it. then I'll take another swing. and I'll miss. then I'll have myself a popsicle. would you care for a popsicle? just don't bring it into the sauna. I reached into the fridge for another popsicle. I missed. I got the cabbage. I put it back, but I missed. I dropped it on the floor. long story short, missed." -- Nancy Drew The White Wolf of Icicle Creek: Twist of Fate - PART 3 - Game Grumps
"When Ron the Mighty has stood in front of the gate of heaven he begins to denounce it. He cries, 'heaven is for those too scared of nothingness, I will go no further then my mortal flesh will carry. This mirror is the sick bed of heaven Harry, the eternity of pansy lies.' Ronnie will have nothing to do with the mirror, he is only concerned with the flesh and blood of the now. This destroys Harry. Ron leaves him to contemplate his stupid mirror, and the design of the cosmos versus the terminal beauty of being a wizard." -- Wizard People, Dear Reader: Chapter 23

People on reddit are claiming that multiplayer was promised very explicitly by the devs, when all they said was that it was possible in theory for it to happen. And that was a long time ago as well.
There's another reason I'm avoiding purchasing the game, most of the people talking about it online are being insufferable brats about the game. The devs called it multiplayer explicitly multiple times and a large number of boxes shipped with the multiplayer mark covered with a sticker.
