Is this going to be the band the whole hour? That would be boring. Great way to avoid talking about actual gameplay/plot though.

K I'm done watching. Music is cool and all, but this is essentially just a promotion for the band. I'm not interested in watching musicians perform, today. I came here for the game.

Out.

 

[Trickster]

Will they ever show gameplay from this game?

 

[Gaz_RB]

That drummer is fucking in it.

 

[jond76]

Twitch stream down for me

 

[Ghizz]

That drummer is fucking in it.

Ye, hes going ham

 

[Baroquemantic]

Yea, as someone who is extremely hyped it is very unfortunate it's so prominent.

Hopefully a powerful PC can eliminate it to a degree, as most of the computation is CPU based it seems.

I'm not sure a powerful PC would matter. The pop in is there because the surface of the planet is being procedurally generated as you explore. Though I'd guess if you leave a planet and return, it wouldn't need to generate again.

 

[Icyflamez96]

No Man's Band

 

[H1PSTER]

Hey, it's Crash Tactics!

Love this song.

Luckily you're not on steam or I'd be spamming you with how good this music is.

 

[Pattycakes]

Are these all songs that will be in the OTS?

 

[krypt0nian]

I cannot believe any poster would shit on this.

No depths...

And a faster CPU can generate it faster, at a greater distance.

And no, it's only loaded for when you see it. It's not like it gets loaded into the game when it's seen once, and then it's faster to load if you see it again. If you leave, it gets generated again as if you've never been there before.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Well we are about to hit 30 minutes.

Honestly if this does end up being just music with barely any new footage I wouldn't mind as the music is great, but fucking A if this won't make the game garner more hate from people on GAF.

 

[iosefe]

Will they ever show gameplay from this game?

here was a gameplay trailer

 

[Soma]

If nothing else I love that this is an opportunity for the band to get more exposure.

Very well deserved.

 

[Anos Voldigoad]

That drummer is fucking in it.

he better not be passing out midway, Sean is in it with the

Spoiler

coke

backstage.

 

[serversurfer]

omg laser rifle
GUNS!

DID YOU SEE THAT LASER GUN!

Call of No Man's Sky Advanced Modern Warfare 3 confirmed!

Earlier on the live stream, Sean said combat was his favorite aspect of the game, and he was a bit baffled by people who wanted to be traders as a full time job.

 

[floatingcoffins]

When are they going to get to the fireworks factory?

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Awesome

 

[Seiru]

I'm not sure a powerful PC would matter. The pop in is there because the surface of the planet is being procedurally generated as you explore. Though I'd guess if you leave a planet and return, it wouldn't need to generate again.

More powerful hardware would allow you to generate terrain in a large enough radius that it's not visible to the player

 

[H1PSTER]

Are these all songs that will be in the OTS?

No.

 

[Smokey]

brehs

show the game

 

[legacyzero]

Luckily you're not on steam or I'd be spamming you with how good this music is.

Oh shit, I forgot to sign in again.

 

[fallen_dawn]

not feeling the way objects are kind of just warped in, kind of looked like the video was sped up though

The game generates the environment/planets based on your position. Would be nice if it looked a bit smoother, but considering the scope of the game, I'm alright with that.

 

[Beatofficer]

I thought it was said during the keynotes that it was strictly a concert tonight.

 

[a secret-boss]

confirmed new music for No Man sky

 

[GodParticle]

Lol that honesty

 

[Gaz_RB]

lmao this dude

 

[Interficium]

Lead singer just threw shade at everyone. lol.

 

[Icyflamez96]

Well we are about to hit 30 minutes.

Honestly if this does end up being just music with barely any new footage I wouldn't mind as the music is great, but fucking A if this won't make the game garner more hate from people on GAF.

My thoughts exactly. Although I could have sworn I heard Sean say something about showing off a different side of the game in his interview earlier today.

 

[narwhalSTAB]

Instagram footage, but Hamza from Destructoid got some of the new footage.

http://instagram.com/p/wSx7htt49Y/

Cool there's big cities too.

 

[TheHollowNight]

hahah i loved his utterly blunt honest delivery.

[RyanPierre]

How do you know that? There's plenty of games with non-procedurally generated environments that suffer from pop-in.

 

[a secret-boss]

this is gaf

gotta be quick cut trailers or none

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

I guess the singer isn't happy about being there? Lol

 

[Shining Sunshine]

lololol dem british humour

Next thing you know he'll say ManU will win the premier league this season

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Well they have a new a fan in me, will download the ever living shit out of their music in amazon whenever I get a chance. Assuming they have it there of course, though I've seen random obscure djs with music on amazon, shouldn't be far fetched

 

[Soma]

oh man

this song

one of my favorites

 

[Gaz_RB]

How do you know that? There's plenty of games with non-procedurally generated environments that suffer from pop-in.

because he has actually done research on this game

 

[DidntKnowJack]

To me this kind of harkens back to the early days of the Playstation and being introduced to some new music with a little game called Wipeout. Really loving this.

You may be right. I just assumed this was a limitation of their engine.

 

[noah111]

Anyone know the name of the song they're playing right now (he said it was old)? Because holy shit.

 

[Trickster]

I cannot believe any poster would shit on this.

No depths...

Hey the music is nice and all, but I'm watching the stream to see a fucking video game, not a band playing a concert

 

[Deleted member 471617]

Music is great and fits the game well but I want to see new gameplay, not the band. Seriously, tomorrow better be a lot better because if this is what PSX is going to be like every year, I'll definitely be skipping it. UGH. So disappointed.

 

[Gala]

oh man

this song

one of my favorites

One of my favorites 65dos songs as well. So bloody good.

 

[v1lla21]

What do you want them to talk about, huh?

 

[Icyflamez96]

Did I miss something? What the buzz about the singer speaking? I switched tabs to read posts here so I may have missed it.

 

[Kuro]

Did a load of new juniors join the past couple days? Keep seeing drive by posts from them on every game being shown off.

 

[Joeku]

Yeah, this is what space sounds like in my head. This kinda thing and Vangelis.
