I'm curious to see what happens next. They mentioned base building and freighters around launch time, but anything after this is new. There's loads of potential, tbh. Imagine if you could start up colonies and could recruit aliens to come and live there, for example.

 

I'm guessing ship building/modification will come at some point - hopefully along with the ability to name your ship!

I could see that coming. I can imagine the game being so much "fuller" later down the line where you can buy more ship technologies, shirt building parts, base building parts, etc. I hope that they keep adding parts as time goes by because that's the sort of stuff that I'd love and would hook me back in.

The Foundation Update looks good, probably re-download this and give it a go at some point. Hoping that one of the things they eventually add is the ability to building space probes and send them off to scout other galaxies/planets/moons or even build space stations/defence platforms that you can put into orbit, that would be awesome. Maybe even include the ability to do spacewalks with the latter idea. Only time will tell what we'll get after this but it's looking up for No Man's Sky to say the least.

Interesting to see so much activity in here again! Was wondering if anyone still played or had burnt themselves out on it. I'm thinking with Xmas coming and the few quite days/times I might have at home this could be an ideal sort of single player thing that might be idea for some xmassy game feels. Shame I didn't think about it sooner - I imagine this update is going to push prices back up again! I'll see where my finances are soon though and pick it up maybe.

Look like they are working on the ground vehicle atm after someone uncovered an interesting folder within the update.

 

I'm excited to build a base at my favourite planet. Have been there for a long time. :/

 

The ground vehicle could be quite interesting if it switches to third person, because then they'll let you see your character - something previously they said you'd only be able to do via another players view

Some recent pictures of my adventures through space since Foundation:

Nice! Genuinely looks a lot more varied than before. Did they add a photo mode? How are you finding it?

 

Wen on holiday a week after release and never played it since. I think I'll hop back after a couple more updates, haven't had my 50 quidsworth yet..

They did add a photo mode but it's a bit cumbersome to get to at the moment. You have to go into options to select it. I'm wondering whether this was simply a "quick, shove it in quick before they threaten to kill us for something else," kind of thing, and will streamline it later.

 

It's good fun though, and there is a lot more variety to the terrain generation.

i mean i never expected so much over two updates........well they are far apart

 

They were only three months apart. Foundation dropped in December if I recall correctly. Maybe late November. I'd expect another big update around July/August.

Tempted to come back to this now, all i want now is a multiplayer mmo like experience, surely they can do that in update 3? i mean i never expected so much over two updates........well they are far apart

 

I don't think we'll ever get that traditional multiplayer mmo experience that you're asking for. I don't think the game is built for that or set up in a way that enables this to happen. That seems to be clear now.

 

There might be ways in the future to "share" more things with other users. Maybe we'll be able to create our own ships in the future for others to buy, for example. It'll be that type of multiplayer.

Well eitherway, the updates make the game feel worth what i paid now, it was a great game to just waste time on, man if this ever got ported to Switch....my evening commute would be heaven

Just bought it, won't get to it until after the weekend though. It's currently £13 on the Playstation store, by the by.

 

That's very tempting! I've still got Zelda and Horizon to go next though so I'm gonna wait a bit longer on NMS. I'll probably end up borrowing it off someone rather than buying tbh - but we shall see! How do those who've played previously feel about the latest update; is it adding enough to bring you back or make it feel fresher again?

Currently £14 on PSN if you're a PS Plus subscriber or the same for a physical copy on Amazon.

 

The new updates are making the right noises for me. I'm thinking about picking it up. Though I'm still torn between PS4 or Steam.

 

Edit: Yeah none of the posts above mine showed up when I first came into the thread so excuse the repeating of the pricing info!

I enjoyed it from the beginning but they have certainly added a lot of content.

 

Building bases, owning freighters and now driving over planets in rovers is really fun

 

EDIT: And on the PS4 Pro the framerate seems to be 60fps now. Though it does dip on planets with tons of fauna.
