I'm waiting to see what there will be to do other than fly around and land on planets. Are there different factions you can work for? Is there any sort of territory control? Can you start your own faction? Can you fly capital ships? Can you strip mine planets for resources? Can you build vehicles to drive around with? Are there actual NPCs? If so, can you hire them for various tasks, or have them as wingmen? Can there be massive space battles between fleets of capships? And so on...
I was excited until I heard that there would be one biome per planet. I'm sorry, but that's really fucking stupid. I'd rather have a hundred highly detailed planets with different biomes like swamps, tundras, jungles, poles, etc. than a hundred million planets (most of which the majority of people won't even SEE) all done in such a simplistic fashion.
Waiting for more information, and unless I can get a really good deal on a pre-order (like with DOOM for $45) I'll wait for both professional and player reviews before purchasing.
There's just too many unknowns at this time. Other than procedural generation, what makes it better than say, SPAZ 2, Starpoint Gemini 2 / Warlords, or Elite: Dangerous w/Frontiers?
Although i dont watch the game closely so I am not sure all the details I will say about a month ago they dropped a metric ton of actual information. But your right in that prior to that people where making a metric ton of assumptions based on pretty much nothing
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

I would STRONGLY recommend that you don't buy NMS until after launch and you've had the chance to watch some extended game play on Twitch or YouTube. I don't think you will enjoy NMS.
NMS is not a simulation, it's nowhere near as "realistic" as Elite:Dangerous, for instance. NMS dropped realism in favour of game play, much of the mechanics are stylised and abstract, the game world is definitely not "photo-realistic" in the way that E:D or even Star Citizen portrays the galaxy.

You misunderstand me. I know it's going to be very 'arcadey' in terms of controls, physics, and the like. SPAZ2 is much the same way, and it's pretty good, if a bit grindy. I was asking more in terms of features, not basic game play. In fact, I'd say of the games I listed that Elite: Dangerous is probably my least favorite one.

None of those are on the same level of scale as NMS
Less planets, sure. But AFAIK in terms of mechanics, NMS is way behind. You can't build any structures, for example. And I'm pretty sure you can't design a ship, then upload it so other people can try it out.
But that's my problem. The game is a month from release, yet there's comparatively little information about it.
Let me ask you this: What's the point of having 100 billion planets when the average user might only ever see a couple hundred at best? I'm concerned because they seem to be pushing the quantity over the quality. Other than naming a planet and some of the creatures on it, what is the point of exploring one? It's an entire planet consisting of one biome. That's going to be VERY boring to explore.

actually i dont think its enough but thanks for your observation.
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.
Like I stated. It is the scale of NMS that is what has everyone so excited. None of those games compare to it in sheer scope.
"Hello Games co-founder, Sean Murray, explained that the development
team started out using 32-bit numbers to generate the planets in the
universe. Using the 32-bit formula, it would take somewhere between four
and five thousand years to visit every planet in the game for just a
one second stop on each. That sounds pretty massive to us, but the team
wanted to go bigger.
By stepping the scale up to 64-bit numbers, the number of planets
is increased roughly to 2 to the power of 64. That exponentially
increases the scale of things and means that it would take roughly five
billion years to visit each planet for one second."
Elite Dangerous is almost infinite in size Space Engineers is not infinite but what you can do on the planets is considerably more StarMade is almost infinite in size Emperim is not but there is more you can do on the planets
AND all of them are playable right now.
so I dont agree with you there at all

What is your point ?
If you're saying that all the games you listed have identical features, what makes anyone choose any one of them in particular ?
People watch game play and see combinations of features (and how those are implemented) that appeal to them. Gaming is a matter of entertainment, and has more in common with emotion than logic.

NO I am saying people have been saying 'no other game does this' when refering to NMS when in fact games do exist that you can play right now that does what NMS does and I might add before people even knew for sure what NMS could do.
look at it from my view, having played these games (not all of them) comments like 'no other game has tried this' just sounds silly
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.
I'm excited about NMS from the bit of info we have.
I really dislike Elite:Dangerous...it isn't very good overall. Just flying the damn ship and docking etc requires hours and hours of crap you need to go through to figure it out. I would like to play the game and not require hours to fly a realistic spaceship.
Hopefully this game is much better. It definitely looks like a different focus, so I don't know why people keep bringing it up.
Being infinite in size is not the same. NMS is a fully realized universe with the planet exploration being the difference and the selling point. Each planet is a fully realized ecosystem unto itself. With unique fauna and animals. Those other games may have planet exploration(not all of them) but not to this degree.
Just to add. Many people call this a combination of Elite and GTA.
lets break that down a bit
1. a universe so big I will never be able to explore it all
vs
2. a universe so big I will never be able to explore it all because its infinite.
net result is the same for the end player, why would they be more excited about one or not the other? yeah I am not buying into that logic sorry.
people I think where and are excited because you can land on planets and the universe is big and they think its never been done before or forget that other games have done it because the koolaid is that strong
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

look at it from my view, having played these games (not all of them) comments like 'no other game has tried this' just sounds silly
I'm looking forward to discovering how NMS works, how to get everything upgraded enough so that I can reach the center of the galaxy and "solve the puzzle" of getting there.
I'm looking forward to seeing all the weird varieties of creatures and terrain that the procedural generation can come up with.
I'm looking forward to the discussions, screenshots, speculation, etc. that will be generated by a game where everyone plays the same game, but everyone's game experience will be unique. Sometimes subtly different, sometimes drastically. That in itself will be fascinating.
It is not about logic. You are missing the point of the game. It caters to a different gamer than some of those that you listed.
"Developer Hello Games delved into what
you actually do in the game, aside from just flying your ship across
space looking for new worlds to name after rude words. If we were
wearing our lazy journalistic comparison hat, we’d say No Man’s Sky
appears to be a mix of Elite and Grand Theft Auto -- you can choose to
be a warrior, a trader, an explorer or a mix of all three, but if you do
anything wrong, expect to have the space police chasing after you.
When
you find a new planet in No Man’s Sky, the idea is to scan for a beacon
in order to name the planet. Once you name that planet, that’s how it
will be known to everyone else through the galaxy. To answer some
immediate questions: Yes, you can give multiple planets the same name
(if you want them all named after you, for example). Yes, there will be
some filters on what you can and can’t name planets. And yes, they
really are huge in scale. Or as Murray keeps saying: “Our planets are
planet-sized”.
When you land on a planet, the idea is
to scan for beacons and other points of interest. Some life forms will
be hostile, but most of the wildlife is friendly. If you shoot at the
innocent inhabitants of a planet, a local enforcement sentinel will take
an interest. Continue to misbehave, and your wanted level will rise,
much like in Grand Theft Auto, with stronger and stronger law
enforcement units at each level. Get a wanted level 5 and the huge
walkers come in. Thankfully, you have a rechargeable shield that
protects you, but once that’s gone, there’s only five hit points between
you and death.
Most people won’t want to destroy the local
wildlife though, at least according to Hello Games. “You will find
creatures you want to share,” says Murray. “If you’ve been travelling
for tens of hours, what you’ve collected becomes a point of pride.”
Other players will be able to see what you’ve discovered in your profile
-- a screen that currently looks very similar to the profile screen in
Destiny.
Murray also hopes that you’ll want to explore the galaxy
out of your own curiosity, finding relics from previous civilisations on
your travels. Nearly all of the content in the game is procedurally
generated: from the worlds, to the ships and even the weapons -- No
Man’s Sky has thousands of unique-looking weapons. You also need to
discover new technology on your travels -- technology determines how far
you can jump through hyperspace to find new worlds."
It's ok if it does not appeal to you. It is an indie game though so I figured you would dig it
PLEASE answer this question
what kind of gamer perfers
a huge universe in which they will never be able to see completely vs an infinite universe in which they will never be able to see completely
because THAT is what you were talking about so I assume your potion has not change in that respect
dont do this..please dont be that guy you are smarter than that
FYI: I read that description and I do not see anything that is novel or different from the games I described other than being able to name your planet.
oh and what the fuck is 'like GTA you can be a warrior' that does even makes sense let alone being a suggestion to a class system which you dont even need in a skill based system

If you're saying that all the games you listed have identical features, what makes anyone choose any one of them in particular ?
People watch game play and see combinations of features (and how those are implemented) that appeal to them. Gaming is a matter of entertainment, and has more in common with emotion than logic.
look at it from my view, having played these games (not all of them) comments like 'no other game has tried this' just sounds silly

I really dislike Elite:Dangerous...it isn't very good overall. Just flying the damn ship and docking etc requires hours and hours of crap you need to go through to figure it out. I would like to play the game and not require hours to fly a realistic spaceship.
Hopefully this game is much better. It definitely looks like a different focus, so I don't know why people keep bringing it up.
1. a universe so big I will never be able to explore it all
vs
2. a universe so big I will never be able to explore it all because its infinite.
net result is the same for the end player, why would they be more excited about one or not the other? yeah I am not buying into that logic sorry.
people I think where and are excited because you can land on planets and the universe is big and they think its never been done before or forget that other games have done it because the koolaid is that strong

I'm looking forward to seeing all the weird varieties of creatures and terrain that the procedural generation can come up with.
I'm looking forward to the discussions, screenshots, speculation, etc. that will be generated by a game where everyone plays the same game, but everyone's game experience will be unique. Sometimes subtly different, sometimes drastically. That in itself will be fascinating.
These are the things that appeal to me in NMS.
hand to god the last pre-order i watched (and I joke you not) LITERALLY went on sale (as in discounted price) in the afternoon of its release date

an infinite universe in which they will never be able to see completely
because THAT is what you were talking about so I assume your potion has not change in that respect
dont do this..please dont be that guy you are smarter than that
FYI: I read that description and I do not see anything that is novel or different from the games I described other than being able to name your planet.
oh and what the fuck is 'like GTA you can be a warrior' that does even makes sense let alone being a suggestion to a class system which you dont even need in a skill based system
