BT taking down some big squid looking thing
I've been on the same planet all day today and just exploring. Mostly trying to get the monoliths to learn words. My ship is approx. 35 mins away according to the icon so eventually I'll need to find a station that has a shopping terminal and a thing to call the airship. Or maybe I have a long walk ahead of me.
My only complaint so far is the screen icon for places that you can save at (that you haven't discovered) is a question mark, and unlike the other icons, is kind of transparent and super easy to lose. If you get turned around by going after other stuff it's sometimes hard to figure out where you were initially headed. Maybe that's intentional to intensify the feeling of wandering a planet, but if you're gonna put an icon on screen in the first place, don't make it make it so hard to find.
EDIT: Actually I just wish once you see it, if it goes away on screen, put it on the compass at the top of the screen.

Are there landing things on every planet? And robots that hurt you when attacking stuff in every single planet?
I've been watching a lot of these streams and haven't seen one of those hostile robots yet. I think the landing things are on every planet, or at least it looks that way.

Alright, so I land on a desert planet and I find floating islands, like actual enormous floating land masses, just mysteriously suspended In the air! A whole planet full of them. You'll never find out how or why. I love this game.
Also home to small t-rexes with butterfly heads.

This hardly ever happens on consoles. The jury is still out on the PC version though.

Are the ships you find and buy procedural?

One of the coolest parts of the game! I forgot to put a picture of an example of the ships. Added it to my post above!

Anyone knows when the reviews start coming in? I love space and all of that but I'm not really sure if the game will be worth it mainly because of the design. It looks so... cartoony. Anyway I am sure I would love this game because my favorite part of Mass Effect was the planets exploration. I just want to make sure it's actually a good game (I know reviews don't really answer this, but wtv) and if they came out early I would pre order the game to play it on the 9th on the PS4

Just searching for the perfect looking ship will be fun.

Geez how would you get back to your ship if you parked up on one and then fell off? (assuming there'd be a way to survive getting down)
Reviews won't tell you if you like the design that much, but if you aren't super afraid of spoilers, watch one of the many streams to see if the design is up you alley
Have you been digging the caves streamers have run into?

Not being able to turn off the Atlas tops will get annoying quick I bet. Only 2 and a half more days until can play!
You can call your ship to you from certain stations.

Not being able to ride creatures is such bullshit though
I get the complaints about clipping through things like large animals, but did you ever really think NMS was going to allow you to ridecreatures like they were horses or something? Or did you mean "ride" is the most basic sense; that there exists collision between the player character and the large creature model so you can ride/surf on a creature as long as you can balance yourself?

A tad disappointed that the races aren't more alien, especially considering they basically lifted the language mechanic from Out There

Daaaaaaamn I want that
I hope they focus on that in any sort of potential sequel or expansion. Sentient NPCs that aren't just headswaps on a Biden humanoid body.
How the hell can it even fly!?

In space everything can fly.
And it's not even that strange for flying objects in-atmosphere.
We have stranger things flying around in our world xD

hah then yeah, that'd be pretty funny. Though much more so if there was a 3rd person view.

First thing I'm doing when I get out into space is testing the rotation of planets and the day/night cycle to see if it varies. I'm honestly surprised nobody has done this yet since it's a big part of the immersion.
Yeah he was in if for a while it was his ship, was cool.

Some were maybe football pitch-sized. You could stand on the edge and look wayyyy down at the rest of the land. They looked bigger from the ground, casting massive shadows.

Pretty sure I remember reading that the day/night cycle of a planet is determined by it's axis angle in relation to it's sun

They kinda confirmed 60FPS during a presentation of the game a month or so back. I'd be surprised if it wasn't.

I thought so too but people keep reporting that it's something like 12 minutes and 12 minutes on every planet.

From what I've seen so far, the sunset/sunrise times are always the same, no matter what planet you're on.
