So at best there might be a dark souls style shadow for a character nearby... That's the most im expecting atm.
Hasn't even been a shadow. We haven't seen it when two streamers tried to meet up

Who might have been in different servers.
This is such a non issue.
Sure, there are a myriad of reasons why it didn't show up.
All of these myriad of reasons could've been given by Sean when he was tweeting but he has been silent in this regard, not even mentioning whether the feature is there or not.
It would be great if it was actually in the game because this is the only known way to see your own avatar.
Also a lot of the discussion (/ hate) is being directed at the fact that Sean has yet to confirm this and all it would take is a simple confirmation on his part, yet he's been keeping mum
This is such a non issue.
I think it is fairly clear that sean made false promises in this respect. Why all this idolatry over Sean? This is the first big project he is involved in.
Warp = MATCHMAKING
It's just not working due to server load. That's our last hope, IMO.
Ive been out of the thread for a few hours. Can you explain the warp thing to me?
A large part of my interest in this game was investing time into working toward the novelty of eventually meeting up with a friend and then traveling around from there, even accepting that the universe is so large that we may not even reach each other if we spawn too far away; it's awesome and even slightly poetic. But to know now that it's not even a possibility and that it would be a fool's errand to even try, really bums me out.This is such a non issue.

I agree. It's getting ridiculous. Sad, really.
Would be an incredible feat of software programming and network coding if they could coordinate 10 million players' universes with rotating planets and such. Chances are pretty close to zero.
Last time I read through this thread there were 50 pages. Now there's 100+. Sorry if this has been already answered but has Sean actually addressed this issue or what?

When you warp between world's it is rather long. Sure it could be per distance away, but I suspect the game may matchmake you with another player in the same region of space. So 2 players in the same planetary region of space. Would still make for rare encounters and require luck to cross paths.Ive been out of the thread for a few hours.

I understand this but that's not enough to warrant to hate on the guy or game. It's a very small feature that may or may not be in the game. If he's keeping mum it's probably for a good reason.

It's not terribly difficult to understand that the idea that you could, at any moment, meet and interact with another player was part of the draw for some people.
I agree. It's getting ridiculous. Sad, really.
But if you're into genuinely sharing the universe with other explorers, actually having the chance to find them in a rare thrilling encounter, the missing feature kills that illusion. All there is to suggest the universe is truly permanent and being explored by all those enjoying together is the knowledge it is just a database refreshing. You'll never stumble on anyone but NPCs. That's important for a lot of people like me.Well if you were into the game for multiplayer you shouldn't have been buying it in the first place.
Really? Even though there were better odds you would watch Batman v Superman 1,000 times in a row than finding another person in NMS?
It happened in the first day. Stumbling upon someone randomly would be rare, but planned meet-ups?Really? Even though there were better odds you would watch Batman v Superman 1,000 times in a row than finding another person in NMS?

Nothing has come out.
Some time ago (I think this morning?) Sean expressed surprise on twitter that people were already "meeting" each other (aka being at the same place at the same time). He didn't clarify if the two players on the stream were supposed to see each other or not. The two streamers tried again and couldn't see each other still, but they both had intermittent issues with the servers.
I see, thanks. He should really clear things go though.One of the reasons why the thread got so large in such a short time is due to the way Sean has danced around that question, sadly.
And there's the rub.
Lol
Shiny Pokémon actually exist in the Pokémon games though.So which would be more unlikely:
1. Finding and catching shiny versions of all of the original 151 Pokemon?
or
2. Finding a single person in the universe of No Man's Sky?
He thinks that's the zinger. He doesn't know, just let him enjoy it.Huh? I don't get what you are trying to say.
And there's the rub.

Evidently you disagree and that's fine, but that you don't share a concern doesn't render it invalid.
So Sean said that they added a "scan for other players" in the galactic map. What is this feature have people tried it?
Do you own the game?
Obviously Sean is talking about a bullshit scanner that unveils lies.
? He did mention that in the twitter post about the scan thing... Have people tried it or is the feature not in the game?
Well 2 has already happened. Has 1?
