no every pyhsical copy is technically unfinished the day one patch is more or less finishing the game ...
If the game launched as it is now, aside from a few bugs it would still be fantastic and become a favourite of many.
But all those updates are going to improve the experience so much that it feels likei'm playing the beta.

Sean did more than just deliver on his promise. And it goes to show all these people that were giving the game a hard time where playing an unfinished game.

Already talking about cool stuff coming in the next patch? Christ.
I think Ill wait a month or two on this and keep that money for Deus Ex. Get NMS after a few more patches and maybe a sale during the holidays seems smart.

If the base building gets added before the Destiny expansion comes out in mid-September then I might not be coming back to Destiny lol
Exactly. Just finished a long session and it's 100% 30FPS. Very stable though.
Its an update, not a patch. But it includes improvements. They'll be updating the game with new stuff for years to come. This is not a solid reason to leave it. The game is complete

Those patch notes. Holy shit.
And we were all hyped on what we were seeing in the unmatched game!

Breezy was right.
But I guess they had to get the game out asap.
Still not a fan of this practice regardless.

Oh shit, didn't see the patch notes. Fuck yeah!
A mess? The launch is great! I've played it for six hours.

The launch is neither good nor bad. There isn't a launch. It hasn't launched yet.

Why? It literally has no effect on you whatsoever.
I'm so fucking tired of gamers taking issue with shit on some manufactured principle when nothing is actually wrong.

Every single game since we entered the patch era is drastically different on day 1 officially minus day -10. I agree it's nonsense.

Doesn't seem so great otherwise when the developer is begging people not to play their game in its on-disc state, and it won't be great for anyone who starts playing the game offline, unaware that they might have to delete their save to restart the game properly.

Lol, Lol, Lol.
So an experimental game is experimental, oh my god the horror.

There are plenty of practices in video games I don't agree with that don't necessarily directly effect me. A few of my friends have super shitty internet, and Comcast's awful data caps. It's hard for them to juggle how much they can use per month and now have to incorporate that on a single player game.
What you perceive as "nothing wrong" isn't the same for everyone. No need to get all upset that people have different opinions than yours.
Man, this game makes people defensive as fuck.
Not every game is so drastic in its Day 1 changes. Sengoku Basara has only changed marginally since its release, with its biggest change being that you can skip the awful powerup sequences. That's incomparable to adding a ton of content.
Edit: The patch size is super small, so good on HG for keeping it that way. I'm still not cool with it as a general concept, but that's a lot easier for people to swallow.

Yeah, except they were using an exploit, not installing the game off a disc bought in store. This isn't an issue with "early copies," it's going to affect anyone who happens to install the game offline until Sony starts printing discs with updated game code (which might not happen).

This guys planet is mad. Pretty sure he doesnt need to use life support, or its at the lowest possible rate of loss.
Definite Proteus vibes there. Now I just need a little hopping pixelated frog.
C'mon now. That's not even remotely fair and you know it.
Pretty much. Though those patch notes are something else and will hopefully temper some of the tantrums.
Sure, but this is 2016. People playing games on modern consoles in 2016, let alone PC, are by and large connected to the internet. Of the people that are planning on buying NMS, or have already pre-ordered it, the number that actually do not have reliable access to the internet-- and yes, I have friends that are in that (sometimes literal) boat-- is tiny, and shrinking every year. At some point you have to stop focusing on the outliers.
The update patch is also only 800MB. That's less than the YIFY rip of Interstellar and NMS you can actually play.
Well he's not banned from the Internet and I've seen him popping up elsewhere-- including asking questions on NMS' twitter feed lol So he's alive and well

Anyone playing have a problem with planet rotation? I don't get what that even means
Clauss

This puzzled me as well. Everything I've been reading has been people wishing the rotation correlated to the day night cycle more accurately. This sounds like they've done the opposite.

Lol @ the NMS Review thread. One cranky review and there's already 11+ pages. Looks like I'll be steering far away from that thread.
No idea tbh. Whatever they were encountering during playtesting left a bad taste in their mouth it seems. I imagine we'll get a proper postmortem from HG down the line that'll address stuff like this.

Yeah if anything I was expecting them to put in the proper rotation and as a consequence have realistic day/night cycles.

My better half doing God's (Sean Murray's) work.
She somehow managed to glitch land her spaceship under planet - but couldn't take off again.
The solution was apt in game with so many possibilities.

She tries again!

So hyped for this game. Been watching streams. They make me happy.
Can we just shut this shit down right now?
Dude, you need to seriously chill. The update notes don't go into any sort of technical detail at all, in fact it implies that all they did was make days longer.

It's still an issue of people accessing the content before the developer intended. Whether it's due to an online exploit or a retail store breaking the street date or unscrupulous warehouse workers doesn't really matter.

My guess on this is that I've had times when I was trying to get to a location over the horizon on a planet and the rotation of the planet was making it difficult to "catch up" to the location due to the ship's automatic speed limits at various heights.
Those patch notes are incredible. Addresses basically every single complaint I have.

Is the day one patch included in the pre-load or is that going to have to be downloaded separately, further delaying when I can start playing it?
Vincent Grayson

Separately. And it's only 800 mb.

Ah, okay. Not too bad.
