3 times I've tried to boot up NMS, each time it gets to the loading screen then immediately crashes. So now I can't even play; last night it crashed 2 times while playing. Something's way fucked up.
 
For those wondering what the "dynamic" theme looks like, it's just this art (fanart which is cool)

Played for 6 hours last night without realizing it. Alhough my starter planet had life, it's moon was even more flush with life, albeit colder and a bit harsher on my systems.

Dreamed about the game all night lol I love exploring and naming things 😎🌼


As far as other players is concerned, I know finding others is an ultra rarity but I'm mostly interested in eventually finding a planet/system that other players have been on and named all the flora and fauna.
 
what is this ?
Im in my second system, found planets and have a goal, but I dont understant your spoiler. I didnt chose anything at the beginning ???

There was a choice you made at the very beginning if you want to follow Atlas or explore freely. If you were lead by objectives thus far I'm assuming you chose to follow Atlas.
 
In the galactic map what are the other options and how so you access them? There's 5 circles but I can only access the first 2 which seem to be follow to Centre or free explore.

Also if I chose the pre order ship I can use a chip to find a factory and get a bp for antimatter still right?

Anyone got an Atlas pass yet?

Yup, got a v1 pass very early on.

No idea where further versions of it come from.
 
I think I did complete that, because that's what L1 and R1 do right? After that, what do I do?
Buy anti-matter and build a fuel cell for your warp drive. It should be leading you towards an antimatter vendor (on a nearby space station.) L1+R1 is not your warp drive.
 
Amazon order still hasn't shipped. Guess I'm really testing their same-day delivery prowess today. Where is it coming from...across the street?
 
Has Hello Games or Sony addressed the fact the Limited Edition theme isn't a Dynamic Theme as advertised?

Clearly states "Dynamic PS4 Theme".

This is twice now that they've been deceptive.

pretty upset by this. The theme was the entire reason I got the LE. Ideally, I was hoping it would change throughout the day like the Firewatch one does or something. Mine still hasn't been delivered yet, and I'm kinda tempted to just send it back and get the regular version. I dunno.
 
Makes me think someone messed up and uploaded the wrong theme. If that's not the case, I hope Hello Games rectifies this and does a real Dynamic Theme after the fact.

Just got it installed, it does have music from the game which is nice. Not a bad theme, just not dynamic enough for my standards (that god damn Firewatch the mhmmmm)
 
I dont buy it, even in Souls Games you cant pause due to the connective online elements, but you can in NMS?

Until the do a case study showing the interaction, which Im sure the Developers can do, Im not buying "oh the Universe is too big thats why"

Ok. Guess we wont know for sure until some folks try, and some will. Just have to take the developers word for it until then.

Anything within the last 6months at least

No. But that message from the beginning and all the evasive comments since that do not expressly say it isn't possible and simply reiterate over and over again that is is just unlikely seem to support that the feature is still present.
 
Man J hope the preorder dynamic theme is a good one... cant take another dissapointing one as the one from ABZÛ, that one was a Joke. Guess im gonna find out in 5 hours
 
wtf Im more than 3 hours in. I keep having "objectives" but I didnt make a choice. Weird.
If I were to guess I'd say that not making this choice counts as one of the two choices. But if you really want to check out the other option I'd start over.

If you tell me what kind of character/playstyle you're going for I can maybe advise you if it's worth checking out...
 
There wasn't a crater, just the ship on the surface and a stream of smoke rising from it. Who knows, maybe it was a coincidence on the timing, but the marker for a crashed shipped literally showed up a few mins after shooting down a ship while I was in space.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this then. I saw ships shot down (in-atmo, granted) on streams and they definitely just disappeared. Maybe if a ship crash-lands from space it generates a "crashed ship" location?

I never made a choice.

where the fuck is all the heridium

what does it look like?

I dont know man I just want to reach the center.
So far Im guided towards the center I beleive
I just hope not making the choice didnt screw up my walkthrough.

Sean mentioned it acting like an "open lobby" that is instanced around you (and has a player limit). I imagine a bubble that exists around your presence. If another potential player is within distance, the game probably would seamlessly connect you both into that instance and then the pause would no longer function like it does while solo. I suspect there may be some sort of passive search that's occurring when you're playing solo. I could be very wrong, but that's my own hypothesis of how this could possibly work.
 
There's a beacon right by your ship when you start. Blame space kinda spoiled the interaction a little there...

Hmm, wtf that's pretty shit. Definitely false advertising on that point.

On a brighter note, my Amazon LE is finally out for delivery via UPS! Strange that the tracking history had it listed for Wednesday delivery and then was changed to today.
 
you can find crashed ships!? does anyone know why icon would show up in those cases?

I haven't seen one yet, but I would imagine they have the same blue Gear icon that other upgrades have. Don't hold me to that though.

Downed ship icons kinda appear to be like a red hex of sorts? If you use the beacons that 'search' stuff for you on an area, using the 'transmission' option can yield a downed ship
