Having trouble analyzing flying creature They are too quick to analzye while they are in flight and my blaster doesn't reach high enough (or the projectiles aren't fast enough). And my planet is rather flat. Well, I've been walking around discovering shelters, plaques, new technologies, more resources...Still not ready to fly into space

Well...I spent almost two hours on my starting planet and haven't even thought about flying into space. I was so absorbed that I didn't take too many screenshots... Started on a hot planet so it was easy to circumvent the hazard. Just enter the spaceship, a cave or a house and the heat level reduced Not the most beautiful planet, that's for sure Didn't take long when I saw some other spaceships flying around. This motherfucker was the first predator I've seen...it's small, it's fast and it's a freaking asshole

Good mornin' everybody. The practical course starts in an hour and I swear I will work as fast as I can. I'm so fucking excited, I feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve. My plan for today: 1. Finish the assignment for the course today in record time. 2. Pick up No Man's Sky. 3. At home, put in the disc, let the game install and download the patch. 4. In the meantime eat launch. 5. Play the game. 6. All day long. 7. All night long. 8. YES! I might write a loogbook with a couple of screenshots describing my first hour with the game.

Pff...pre-order cancelled.

Haven't watched anything about No Man's Sky in the past few months but with less than 24 hours to go (at least for me :p) I simply had to watch the launch trailer. I cannot fucking wait...

Called the local Gamestop to make sure I can pick this up tomorrow. And I can. The practical course tomorrow won't take long. I'm probably out of there by 12pm : peace: I'll do the studying I had planned for tomorrow today and just enjoy a whole day (and night) of No Man's Sky

I have a practical course this week. Need to get up very early so there's no way I'll be able to play much at night. ... ... ... lol I most likely won't sleep on Wednesday Working with toxic chemicals while being sleepy...what do the kids say these days? #YOLO The hype that has left me the past few months...it's back. And it's bigger than before.

Guys, Gamestop has that 9.99€ offer...guys, I'll trade in Bloodborne and This War of Mine...GUYS, I will have No Man's Sky on Wednesday.

August has been here for a couple of days now so it's time to reflect on July. Besides Overwatch, Call of Duty: Black Ops III - Multiplayer (can't believe I'm still playing and enjoying it after approx 300 hours) and Rocket League I've played through Plague Inc. Evolved, Dangerous Golf, Furi and Enter The Gungeon. It's a tough choice for my GOTM July. My girlfriend and I got the Platinum on Dangerous Golf, we had a great time playing this. Furi is as good as gameplay mechanics can get. Simple controls but incredible depth. Hmm...

Watched the Stranger Things season finale just now. It was awesome. Really loved the series. Looking forward to season two (which Netflix boss said would be "dumb" not to do) : peace:

I keep dropping hints like "if my girlfriend would treat me like this I'd break up", to "test" how he reacts. He always evades the topic... This is how I normally approach everything But in this situation...he often tries to justify her behaviour and I think if I tell him to break up he'd try the guilt-trip card himself (not to guilt me into something but rather guilt himself into not doing it...)

I want my best friend to break up with his girlfriend... She is ridiculously jealous (my mate gets text like “Sure you’re not at another girls place?” when we go out for a beer), she controls him, she constantly plays the guild-trip card and she needs to see him literally every second of her free time. He always talks about how she makes a big deal out of nothing (example from minutes ago: he was on his way to her place but the bus was a little late…and she got angry, seriously angry with him…) and how tiring it is for him. This has been going on for 5 months now (they’ve been together for a year). He’s talked to her about it a lot of times but nothing has changed. He’s not himself anymore…the control she has over him turns him into a different person and it sickens me to see that. I’ve talked to him and told him that this relationship doesn’t seem to work…I don’t know whether I’d be in the right to say the words “you should break up with her”. My first girlfriend was like this and I broke up with her one week after it got out of hand. Maybe my experience is clouding my view on the situation, maybe I’m overreacting.

Yeah, it might help looking for matches during daytime but I'm only at my place at night

It took me 15 minutes to find a match on the highest difficulty and 4 times in a row people dropped out just before the match started... I don't want to waste my time waiting so I'd much rather boost the trophies :p

Now that the buzz after the NX news has gone I can honestly say: I don't give a damn about Nintendo's new hardware. It was a little exciting reading about what the device (most likely) will be but because Nintendo didn't comment on that (did they?) the tiny bit of hype building inside me has disappeared again. They need to announce it already...and in my opinion they should've capitalized on the talk the NX got out of the rumours (yes, I still consider them just rumours) and tease us a bit. Confirm the news, show a photo of the console...a little something would've been perfect in that moment. It's really sad how indifferent I have become towards Nintendo and what they do.

Had a talk with another mate today about exploration games. He is one of those who love to sit back and explore a huge world and do whatever the game let's you do. I then told him he should look up on No Man's Sky. He texted me just now: "This is exactly what I've been wanting from a video game since I started playing as a kid." Oh man, I really hope I'll get the student assistant job I applied for so I can afford this game by October...fingers crossed...

Indeed. The problem is: some of the later challenges are impossible to win depending on what blocks/black magic you get next. It gets frustrating. I can't play the game for more than 30 minutes at a time... Some of the trophies will be insanely difficult because of the randomness. Winning the final trial without losing a life? Good luck with that... Still need to get the online trophies...anyone? :p

Just a quick headsup: Apparently it'll only take about 15 minutes. There are 5 trophies: win an online match win an online survival match with 1 heart left win an online normal survival match without using any magic win an online game of every mode in every difficulty at least once (there are 3 game modes and 3 difficulties each, so 9 games in total) win a normal race match within 80 seconds without dropping any bricks (this can also be done offline with a second controller, but I don't have one so would love to get that online, too) So, if anybody would like to get these trophies and help me get them, let me know

@Tales if you have a Vita you can do them alone. Anybody up for helping me boost the Tricky Towers multiplayer trophies?

Will do eventually. Just clicked that link to see if there's a Platinum. And there is : peace:

Pretty sure I won't be disappointed. I never expected more than what @somme described: get into my spaceship and fly to a planet I see in the sky (one of my biggest dreams, actually...and I'm not talking about a video game. I actually would love to explore the universe...NMS is probably as close as I will ever get ) I know there's more gameplay to it and I think that everything else besides exploration is an added bonus But I'm sure that a lot of people will be disappointed. I think it's mostly because the devs decided not to show a lot (understandably) and gamers created a game in their head that won't be NMS. As soon as I get the game, I'll put in the disc, open Spotify, let my Space playlist blast through my speakers and enjoy the ride. : peace:

I know exactly what I will do: Explore the shit out of the planet I start on (that is, if you start on a planet). Depending on how much I can do with the resources there that could end up taking 1 hour or possibly 600 hours I NEED THIS. I think the first thing they'll do is collect feedback from the community and most likely fix bugs/glitches/etc. I doubt they'll start working on new stuff this year.

Who doesn't This could be the game I've been dreaming about since I've played my first video game (which was Super Mario Land, by the way). An almost endless universe to explore with a spaceship. That's literally all I ever wanted from a game since I was 5 years old. And no matter how bad/good the NMS will be...the dream will most likely come true.

Yup, if I had a job I'd get it, but I'm a student with no money to spare so it'll have to wait. unless Gamestop will do that fucking offer I mentioned...COME ON. Damn that delay I really want to play it, though.
