Too bad. Ruins the mark they made. Like destroying a monument.

Disagree completely, they cheated(in a sense) got the game early, had unfair access to game so yes it should be wiped.

Given that it was caused by retailers breaking street date, I think that's a mark the devs didn't want to see being made in the first place.
I wish I could preorder better "witty" title edits.
Mods need to do the witty title edits to more articles with different games
3.5/10 title edit compared to the others
Should have been your bumhole next
I don't understand why the game will need to be online and wiped if the game is singleplayer on steam ?

Because discoveries are synched to the cloud. If you tried reading the article you'd know that.
Who is even editing the titles anyway?

The world may never know.
[sp]though I mean if you're really concerned about it you could wait for a NMS article to get posted, and see which mods are online at the time of the title changing to at least narrow it down[/sp]
I haven't followed this game at all, but why are the mods so upset/annoyed/amused, etc. by this game that they constantly gotta change titles? I don't get the joke.

They're not upset. It's just that every time they change the title NMS fans cry about it.

To expand on what elixwhitetail said, when discoveries are made you can name planets and such and other people will see the names.
Also if other players are in the same area you can in theory find them but there is no notification that its another player

the biggest commotion I see about title changes is people cheering on the fact other people cry about it
and who cares about a server wipe? You're not making a permanent home on a planet, there's no base building, your goal is to keep traveling. The chances of running into another player's mark (especially at launch) is so close to zero anyways I doubt this will have ANY effect, save for maybe one person not finding a specific iron deposit on their 20th planetary landing

Remember that the changes players make to planets are [I]not[/I] synched to the cloud but are saved locally. If I find a planet, name it Jigglebosom, and spend two weeks harvesting resources and carving out huge dicks in the rock formations before moving on, and by massive coincidence you stumble upon that system and land on Jigglebosom, you will receive the discovery data for the planet and any juvenile names I've assigned to native life, but the cloud won't have retained my towering dick monuments.
The amount of data that'd be uploaded and then never asked for again (like 99.5% of all uploaded data) would be so massive it's impractical to sync post-generation terrain alterations.
So, yeah. This has absolutely no effect except for discoveries made on a "leaked"-copy stream not being there if someone retraces the streamer's steps exactly.
The discoveries made by beta testers and people who demoed the game at trade shows have also been wiped, nobody seems to care about that; Sean Murray once made a comment about how after showing people NMS at E3 or whatever game show a demo build he'd be implementing a word filter for discovery names before launch and wiping the discovery database, as predictably the public went to obscene names for everything.

My money is on Postal. He's the fun mod.
Now that Hello games have posted the day 1 changelog it makes sense why servers were wiped

Wont quote due to some spoilers but there are significant gameplay changes.
[sp]ALSO BASE BUILDING IN THE FUTURE[/sp]
Those patch notes are what I was waiting to hear. While I was still excited for the game, some of the things I'd been hearing about people playing/streaming it early were worrying, like warp fuel exploits that made the trip to the core about 30 hours long instead of the "hundreds" Sean had promised. Sean had said that the version people are playing wasn't the final version the devs intended for launch, but until the notes went up we had no way of quantifying what that meant.
Now that the notes are there, we have a solid list of promises that seem to resolve most of the worrisome aspects of the early release copies. Hopefully the patch will actually deliver.

So you're suggesting the chain began with someone out of nowhere saying, "who changed the title?" for no reason? Yeah ok.
