I promised myself. Promised. Myself. That I'd be done with this thread. With No Man's Sky.

But how can I be done, when shit like this: http://www.pcinvasion.com/no-mans-sky-discoveries-reportedly-wiped

Is still happening.

My friend actually told me this earlier today and we didn't even know it was in the gaming news sites. He said he found his old planet he started on after a lot of time looking (he has the PS version, had the PC version but he refunded it) and he confirmed that all his discoveries were gone.

However it isn't entirely accurate. It does seem to be 2 weeks (maybe), but its ONLY when you go to far from a planet. My friend then did multiple jumps (12 jumps from home planet), went back to his home planet after re-discovering everything again, and because he went so far the discoveries got deleted again. And he only played a couple hours lol.

Glad I refunded this piece of junk game, that would have pissed me off so much. All that time discovering things to only be deleted if you go too far (or maybe time involved as well)

That is probably why they didn't have a way for you to go back to the home planet, they figured you wouldn't find it again rofl

This is a bigger scam and rip off than even SPORE release ever was. At least that was sorta good, I got my money out of it lol. I'd say no man's sky is the biggest gaming rip off in history of gaming. I can be okay with it not having features it said it would, and the lies and misinformation. But it deleting discoveries if you go too far or spend too much time away from the planet? That is a scam if I ever heard one. Even SPORE never did anything like that lol

(edit: Hopefully for those still playing the game, that is a bug or an actual server issue of some kind (though people said that about players not meeting...). If that is a bug, that is the biggest game breaking bug I've ever seen in a game rofl. The whole point of the game is to explore and discover stuff...that bug pretty much removes discovering stuff. That literally removes more than half the point of the game. I've seen some MMO releases go bad from bugs, but none would compare to the bug of removing half the game being actually playable lol. And if it is a server issue, that is still kinda messed up.

Hahaha damn I was thinking these days, "Wouldn't it add insult to injury if they wiped my 200 numbered "Gabeux ##" systems, and also wiping Sean's Lies and Sean's Tears?".

I also agree this is the greatest scam I've ever seen (or can remember) in this industry. People have been reporting finding Portals and trying absolutely everything to get them open, but modders have checked them out and I'm pretty sure they are unimplemented like the other half of the game. Hilarious to have models of the portals appearing on the planets with no purpose, and I think they can only be found by flying low since I think they don't appear on scans, making it look like an unimplemented feature even further.

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

Almost certainly. Nobody would have blinked at this being $10 or EA alpha.

So it seems that now they are deleting people's discoveries every few weeks. That's another notch in the belt of shame.

so that was basically the last feature as advertised on top of the procedural generation, and it's gone?

The guy got his discoveries back by redownloading. It seems to be a fixable server error.

Agreed. If this had been a $10 early access release I'd have picked it up and played a few hours while offering them feedback on what to improve. Early access products are supposed to be a hot mess on release, and get better over time. I mean Rimworld was a pain in the ass when I first got access to it but now it's one of my top go-to games and it's still ages away from release.

No Man's Sky seems to be a great lesson on media reading skills. A lot of misinformation from developers, press and fans alike to feed unquestioned assumptions.

So when sony pulls the plug on servers even the single player game portion is going poof?
