Will we have to go out and explore to find it?
Oh fuck off. I was ready.
Well, that's a kick in the nuts. Least now they can add more features and shit.
I can't wait to play this game in January

Anyone that buys this game at full price is a chump, I refuse
That's okay, Steam store still says [B]Release Date: Jun 21, 2016[/B]. Could just be something they have to work on for the console version.
[QUOTE=Mr. Agree;50405123]Will we have to go out and explore to find it?[/QUOTE] The release date is procedurally generated
[QUOTE=SnakeHead;50405655]Anyone that buys this game at full price is a chump, I refuse[/QUOTE] Thanks I've been looking for a guide on how not to be a chump. No more games at full price fo... wait, F off. :pudge:
Maybe they had another flood hah [url]http://www.hellogames.org/2014/01/the-flood/[/url]
[QUOTE=Richardroth;50405328]Well, that's a kick in the nuts. Least now they can add more features and shit.[/QUOTE] A delay this late isn't going to be so they can actually add new things to the game. It'll likely just be bug fixes and such.
[QUOTE=nightlord;50407238]A delay this late isn't going to be so they can actually add new things to the game. It'll likely just be bug fixes and such.[/QUOTE] The game is probably broken and they know it so they're trying to delay it as much as possible to try and fix it up.
Well, guess there's still Norman's Sky until then.
I feel like No Man's Sky is going to be like Elite Dangerous but with even LESS to do. It feels like it's a foundation to build a really nice game onto, but that's all it is. There is no game yet. So I'm glad they're delaying it

A six-month delay would be appropriate for "we forgot to build the rest of the game". Six weeks is more final polish and tech issues, and possibly disc reproduction/distribution problems.
a part of me is actually happy when I hear about video game delays. It usually means that they actually care about polishing up their game.

Maybe. Hopefully that's what's happening here
This genre has been shit on so many times in the past 8 years that as much as I would love to play this game, you can tell its just going to be another disappointing shitshow where there is nothing else besides what they have shown (other than the big oogie boogie atlas fight/ universe reset at the center)

Arkham Knight was delayed what, twice? And look what happened. Excuse me for being skeptical, but I doubt six-weeks will change anything major.

[QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;50411015]a part of me is actually happy when I hear about video game delays.
