No Man's Sky has already announced that it has an upcoming major content in the pipeline--one called NEXT. However, today, we got some new details about what we'll be getting with this new update. The most significant of which is that of the new online multiplayer feature. You can now play simultaneously with other players, building and adventuring throughout the world. Racing and dogfighting in aerial vehicles was also mentioned. This update is set to go live for all versions of the game on July 24. This reveal was made during this month's Xbox Insider video.

Isn't like kinda late? O_O

Cool! I know this game got some shit on launch for being pretty bad, but it's come a long way!

 

[Noctosphere]

I don't play it, but I've tryed it once
Didn't really like it
plus, iirc, this game trailer were a bit misleading
Apparently, lot of people though it was going to be a MMORPG
so if it gets multiplayer, then I have only one thing to say

 

[migles]

how is the state of the game currently? close to what it was advertised in the beggining or is now a different game?
i know in the beggining it was totally shit, and the developers mislead and lied about plenty of features and stuff the game was supposed to have..
i am wondering if the developers slowly added what they promissed or basically rebuilt the game and went other path

 

[Steena]

the game gets a tenth of the features advertised for launch in this future patch, progress

 

[Yepi69]

I got my ass torn by people who bought this game at launch, my only comment was: ''This game is going to be shit''
And welp, guess I was right.

No Man's Sky? More like Nope Man's sky.

I've had it since day one.
It's made a lot of good strides towards what was presented in the initial trailers, though it can still be pretty empty and grindy.

My advice is and likely will remain that you should only pick up No Man's Sky if you're looking for a game you can relax with while exploring. Action is pretty spread out, and not the focus of the game.

Here's a small list of changes since 1.0:

Spoiler

- Base building
- Construct-able land vehicles
- Freighters
- Small missions from space-stations
- Story-line quest
- Functional portals
- Early implementations of multiplayer (players are floating orbs with voice), though it sounds like this is going to change with NEXT
- Optimization, optimization, optimization
- Ship, weapon and freighter classes
- And much more that I'm sure I'm forgetting.

At least it's still getting worked on and reaching what it should've been in the first place.

Shouldnt the title be

No man's sky finally gets multiplayer?

I could have sworn this was one of the million things that they promised on day 1

 

[The Catboy]

No Man's Sky? More like No Man Cares.

 

[MikaDubbz]

If anything, I'll give the devs credit for staying committed to the game and slowly updating it toward a point where the game lives up to the promises they had been giving prior to release. Plenty to give them shit for, but it is pretty nice to see something as important as the promised multiplayer finally getting implemented.

No Man's Sky: Get's promised features.

Sounds like Morphite .large stretches of nothing. Boring after the 3rd hour after story mode is complete.

 

[SuperDan]

Completely skipped this game.. When it was new.. Mostly because of the bad reputation.. & pure hate.. Flying around the net... But now it' ccheap as chips.. I might pick it up.. Since I've pretty much got everything on my ps4 pro.. Or is it just a pure dud??

 

[Lumince]

Too bad they lost my trust when they released an unready, unstable, glitchy game that wasnt worth my time or my $60 :/ Threw this game in the dump a long time ago. Too little to late sadly.

 

[MiguelinCrafter]

literally nobody gives a fuck

 

[Mark McDonut]

I remember when this was a launch feature announcement.

Try to grab it while it's on sale if you end up wanting to get it.

Several communities based around the game and myself included would disagree.
Just because a large majority of people dislike the game for its poor release does not mean no one likes it. There are niche games out there for everyone, and No Man's Sky happens to be one of them.

At least this game gets more love than Mighty No 9 does..
