I thought the Day 1 update expanded it?
Wow.... definitely haven't seen a single discovered system on the galactic map yet.
I guess with so many people playing, millions... even though the odds of people being placed near each other are incredibly low, those incredibly low odds are going to be played by someone...

Yeah, it's a bit much. I have no interest in picking up NMS but I can't remember the last time I paid over £40 for a game. It's £50 on ShopTo and TGC ffs! Fucking Sony, man.

I've successfully named 4 planets after one piece islands. Would've been more the look of the planet has to fit the island
I think so.

Got to admit, that doesn't bother me at all. I'm sure as the game goes on upgrades will happen. I've already found one upgrade to my exosuit.
For me limited cargo space adds to the realism of the situation. Part exploration, part survival, part management sim. It'll take time to get properly used to it, but I'm sure we'll find ways of properly managing our inventory...
Did the game come with release day delivery? If not, they haven't done anything wrong (although I know it sucks to be waiting when you want to play a new game).

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. With the numbers we're talking about here, it seems literally impossible that this would happen. I feel like we've been misled about the odds.

Yep, it exists - https://my.playstation.com/Asvpmcnasty
Hopefully it's not too rare to run into peoples' planets and discoveries.

Yes. But its still a bit of a pain early on. Aside from a better ship, be on the look out for DROP PODS. They all carry suit upgrades and add on inventory slot to your suit. The price goes up by 10,000 units for every next Drop Pod you buy the updrade from.
Depending on were you live, it is quite normal for Amazon. My stuff usually ships a week later, so I tend to order stuff that I have no rush to get.

And just woke up, so after breakfast will think to either leave the starting planet (which I don't want to). But the idea of exploring a new planet is exciting.

Or so they say, I've called and chatted with them to see what the hold up is, then I get this contradiction above.
It did by 5 times what it was, but it still feels limited, but that just makes the desire to get improved ships and exosuit slots more though.
My biggest issue is trying to scan flying creatures, it's near impossible.
Yup - Altaria system.

No. This is one of my minor gripes. I accepted the default name for a couple of areas, then decided to go back and rename them to something more personalised...no deal
Not really. Even with such small odds, that's still a chance of it happening. This is one person who has seen something by someone else. If it's happening constantly then yeah but for now, no.
You're working with limitations by design, for sure. I definitely think the low starting space will make upgrades more rewarding. The ship I have my eye on makes me salivate.
Make sure to transfer stuff to your ship as you get full to stack it, and when you're all loaded up either craft stuff or head to a space station and either talk to an NPC or use a trade terminal to sell off.

Had pirates take every fucking thing I had on my ship and I was completely helpless to stop them. Was like I was shooting thumbtacks. Can't even remember what I had but I know I needed all of it lol this feels horrible

There needs to be a better way to determine which multi-tool is better. I have the pre-order bonus one with a few upgrades added, but i came across a couple cool looking ones but couldnt really tell if they were better or worse. Yes, i see the circle gauge things but wtf do those mean?

You can go back to your grave and retrieve your inventory

These are astronomical odds, or at least based on the numbers Sean has thrown around. Even if we assume "most" of the systems are toward the center, and players start at the outer-rim, the odds are ~0. Not "it'll happen to somebody!" kind of odds, literally impossible kind of odds. Struck by lightening 200 times in your life kind of odds.
But apparently not!

Really not digging it.
I'm a little disappointed to say the least. I'm not big into the whole inventory management thing so mix that with some poor combat and same-y planets (the procedural generation isn't as diverse as one would hope) and it's not really my bag. It seems a fair bit of people are enjoying it so that's what matters but for myself, I'm just going to uninstall and drop it now.

Despite the odds, It'd be nice to stumble upon the odd world already discovered by other players - otherwhys whats the point in naming them?
Hopefully the nearer the center we get the more well pick up trails from those that got there before us...
I'd consider any multitool with more slots to be an upgrade. I believe you can improve everything else by crafting tech.

Lol join the club, tho I guess it's what I get for naming planets after a pirate anime

My only real gripe is I wish I could navigate the inventory/menus with the d-pad. It feels really cumbersome dragging that cursor all over the screen with a thumbstick. I'm sure it's great with a mouse though.
Can't you do that from the Options menu -> Discoveries screen? I didn't really pay attention, but as I was redeeming my discoveries, pretty sure there was an option to rename them...No. This is one of my minor gripes. I accepted the default name for a couple of areas, then decided to go back and rename them to something more personalised...no deal

THANK YOUUUUUUUU. It's only 10:47 and you've already made my day. I see it now. The little marker guiding me back. This was a good lesson though. I need good defenses. Can't just run from everything.

How long have you been playing it? There are some crazy planets I have ended up on so you might have just had a stroke of bad luck with a few planets.

This wait for the PC version on Friday is killing me.
Absolutely killing me.
I wish there was some PC gameplay videos out there to look at. I suspect this annoying deal HG made with with Sony is muting all the PC stuff.

Yup does seem weird , I expected it to take months to find other people's discoveries.
You should go and buy a lotto ticket with those odds.

Heh
the same thing happened to me this morning, I was just flying around and noticed the grave icon by accident.Was a little worried the pirates would still be there waiting for me but they were gone, thankfully

Maybe there is a little Peter Molyneux in Sean?
Flying creatures need to be addressed. They are nearly impossible to scan. Hopefully HG knows.

Especially when the game in question has any form of exclusivity to it.
Every time I've gotten a multi-tool upgrade offer (through the "weapon vendor" thing in the rooms with most aliens), the green button initially says "Compare", which puts the multi-tools side by side so you can compare slots and equipment. Then you have to hit the green button again to purchase.
Well, what quest step were/are you on?
It might not impact you at all depending on where you were in the tutorial quests.
Basically, if the hyperdrive/antimatter/warp cell quests make sense to you, the bug/weirdness is not affecting you.

Unless I'm doing something wrong that rename option only works the once. The first time you go in to upload your discovery you can rename from the regenerated default. It appears, once uploaded you can't rename.
Probs run out of keys for the game/hard copies. Just wait a bit and it should restock at some point.

Well, it's out today for the PS4. So you can't "pre-order" something that has officially been released.
Im collecting the stuff for the hyperdrive. Need zinc and i will have built it.

Yes im aware of the "compare" feature, but it doesnt really give a good indication to which one is better. More slots im assuming is a good thing, but the gauges with different colors are just confusing
