But the contents clearly states "Dynamic" huh that's one of the things I was wanting from the LE.....lucky lucky I never got one I guess.

Saying that though I've yet to see a good dynamic theme based on a game that I liked.

The one from Journey is pretty neat.
 
Only played through enough to check out space this morning, but redeemed the DLC ship, so I guess I need to restart the game.

I assume Ill need to actually go into the system and delete the save file to do this? Currently at work now :(


I have not booted it up yet, is there an issue or process needed with the DLC ship?
 
This will never happen, and I'm sure it wouldn't even fit into the theme of the game.

but!

How cool would it be to have player bounties?! Lets say you piss off a faction or go on a path of destruction; you could have your name added to a bounty list for any other player to pickup from a vendor of sorts. Then you would potentially spend weeks trying to track this player down and bring him to justice for xx ammount of credits or some epic loot.

Would be cool.... just sayin' :p

you could...shoot them?

Hmm, maybe. I don't think I would have it in me to shoot another player though :p
 
Great start to my journey lul

Captain's Log #1:

Crash landed on a toxic wasteland of perpetual acid rain, inhabited by giant mushroom like flora and unusual small harmless insect/reptile creatures, not to mention those mysterious Sentinel robots patrolling the area. I wanted to get off this planet as soon as possible but several vital equipment have been damaged from the crash including my ship and scanners, I would have to start scavenging for resources to repair them.

I would have to science the shit out of this.

First things' first, I have to seek shelter from this god forsaken rain. Fortunately there's a nearby cave system from the crash site. Iron seems to be the most abundant resource on this planet, with iron ores every few metres. Carbon and Plutonium were easily gathered as well. While the local Fauna offer zero aggression, the Sentinel robots would offer attack me as I harvest the land of resources. This was something I had to keep in mind as large monolith of rare Aluminium would take awhile to break down and harvest. There were also several equipment left behind by previous expeditions, as well as unknown ships soaring through the skies.

While I would love to stay and explore longer, but having to juggle my suit's toxic protection in addition to life support did not seem like a tempting proposition. As soon as I've repair all the critical equipment, I was all too ready to leave. It was then I actually noticed the relic cargo, the "Atlas" that my ship had been carrying was reacting to me.

I chose to "accept the Atlas' guidance".

The engine of my ship roared to life, it took me a moment to readjust to the controls again after the crash. I pointed the nose upwards and accelerated. The ship soon broke free from the gravitational pull, and it was only then I saw the curvature of the planet... of the whole planet, and realized how tiny the zone I was just in.

The ship system pick up several signal of interest from my location- there was a moon right in front of me as well as another planet behind it, but the one the caught my attention was the space station beacon. With my curiosity pipped, I turned my ship towards the beacon and accelerated.

Estimated time to arrived: 45 minutes.

...Good thing I have a warp drive.
 
Got to my 2nd planet and I've already run out of inventory space. Should I be selling stuff? Particularly things like those Gek treats which are worth like 30k credits.
 
I don't think anyone who has accepted the preorder ship "too early" or screwing with the hyperdrive related quests needs to delete their save.

Your priority is to find the recipe for antimatter. I have a feeling there are a couple ways you can do so but try scanning and looking for
factories on nearby planets.
 
So is it safe to say that when I get home with the game, I should play the tutorial first, and then use the preorder code? Sounds like that might be the best strategy here.
 
Question about one of the ruins i found:

There was this ruin with two giant balls that you could move around. There were platforms that looked like they were meant to go in but i couldn't get them in there (I knocked both balls down and couldn't get them back up). Does anything happen when you do get them in there?

Uhhhh first- Holy shit that sounds rad. Second- no idea. Havn't seen anything like that yet.

I've found loads of ruins like this too but can't see anything to do with those things :(
 
Really enjoying it so far. Currently flogging Plutonium from these nearby planets to the space station for good money. Almost a millionaire! Too bad the good ship upgrades are 3 million +. :(
 
Girlfriend just landed on a beautiful lush moon inhabited by hopping pineapples and aptly named it The Hopping Pineapple Kingdom.

Amazing game so far.

What is the deal with the DLC code? I'm about to start and need some clarification before inputting it.
 
About 2 hours in and the inventory management is driving me crazy.

Go to an outpost and use a bypass chip to scan nearby areas. You need to scan for shelters and you'll find there is exosuit upgrades in them that don't cost a whole lot. at first. Will help you out with your inventory for a while :)

Everybody's Gone To The Rapture one is pretty sweet!
 
The one downside to preordering from Amazon for that cool 20% off is waiting around all day for UPS 😖😖

Hope it's sooner than 7:59pm!
 
So if I'm immediately put off by my first planet, can I just wipe the save and start over without it affecting anything?

Why bother? You should be able to just leave and start exploring the star system. The next planet you visit is just as likely to be more interesting to you as the one you might start on next time.
 
I'm a little salty now. Amazon pushed back my LE edition until Thursday and now if I buy the digital version I do not get the pre-order avatars :(
 
What is the deal with the DLC code? I'm about to start and need some clarification before inputting it.

From what I gather, using the code and beginning with the DLC ship bypasses some of the tutorials you would get when using the starter ship, like repairs and crafting parts like the hyperdrive (I think).

I would play with the starter ship until its fully functional, then enter the code for the new one.
 
After just watching interstellar, I had a damn carbon copy Matt Damon Ice planet that was dead as a door nail in my second system. Completely loaded with resources.

I found it really cool I stumbled across that planet after just finishing the movie. I should've taken screens but I was too busy taking it all in.
 
If you're not liking the inventory management just focus on the things you got to get. Carbon and iron are plentyful so you don't have to carry much of it. Check what blueprints you can create and focus on getting those resources. If you find relics and cool stuff, transfer it over to your ship so you can trade it later. Yeah it takes up time and but the inv management is pretty fun.

ha ha some poor sucker bought all my plutonium for 91% above market value. Poor bastard.
 
So just keep going? Will it break my game? Will it continue to badger me about hyperdrive building?

Someone else seems to have suggested that finding a factory and breaking into it will give you what you need.

This sounds right as it's what happens next in the tutorial.

Do that.

Yep.

You'll lose whatever you've picked up, but it's no biggie.

FYI part of the experience is getting past the nightmare/hell planets to reach the paradise ones. Makes them that much sweeter.
 
The latter.

Pretty sure this is incorrect. This isn't an MMO connected to web servers. You can play it offline, it's all procedurally generated. There's no "multiplayer" whatsoever. You can name stuff and have it show up in other people's game (almost like a leaderboard) but there's no matchmaking, you're never in the same instance as another player. Everything is locally generated on your hardware. It's just generated the same for everyone because that's how the algorithm works.

Do that.

Are they actually called factories? The only locked up places I've seen so far are called Operation Centres.
 
I don't know what to even do
lol

I left my home world and went towards both an "off world beacon" and a "space station" but neither of them ever appeared. Just an icon eternally in front of me, even after I had pulse jumped towards them.

Any help?
 
I redeemed my code on my PC but I guess I shouldn't activate it in the game then. This is the kind of game that I actually really wouldn't want a "cheat code" right away. I want that bit of slow burn to make the exploration feel more significant.

The OP doesn't seem to be aware that you can selectively disable DLC on Steam (right-click -> Properties -> DLC, or just scroll down to the DLC list if you're using Detail View). There's effectively zero harm in pre-ordering or otherwise registering the ship to your account.
