Dude is pissed he spent $60 and got no alien strange 03-lmfao
I prefer watching dark side phil rage personally, his dark souls playthroughs are pretty awesome.

If you find watching petulant little boys masquerading as men whine awesome haha

I prefer neither, merely clicked that one because it was about No Man's Sky. Probably won't get around to buying and playing it until February or March.

03-lmfao

"Francis" is just a character he (boogie2988) plays that rages about everything. Here's an honest review/first impressions of NMS if that was what you were looking for. I just posted the rant because it cracked me up.

Why get the PS4 when you can wait for the Xbox Scorpio (or get the Xbox One S if you don't have a 4K tv right now)

To be fair they haven't said whether there isn't multiplayer or if it's just bugged.

Purplereigns just has some bizarre blind hatred for the game

Why would they add the scan for discoveries just to find other players if you can't see them. That makes no sense.

Or the PS Neo, or the Nintendo NX with its "industry leading chips". There are a ton of high quality options out there now, it really is a great time to play video games.

With that being said, I don't know why anyone would buy the XBox One S with the Scorpio coming out in under a year, just a waste of money if you ask me.

Scorpio will be more powerful than the Neo. It's rather you want 4K gaming (Xbox) or VR (PS)

The S is for those who want more 4K features but not a full 4K gaming experience.

RE: OT: The Official Video Game Discussion Thread (Hello Games lied!)
In that video I posted, when the first guy said "You're building this massive, multiplayer world.." and it's almost like Murray didn't have the guts to correct him, and it snow balled from there. They then put pen to paper, and the math said it was highly improbable any 2 players would ever find each other, so they ran with that. It's incredible that it happened on the first day in the first couple of hours.

But there isn't an answer of whether or not the game actually has no multiplayer, or if it is server issues, bugged, etc...

The people who found each other on the first day found each other because of the scan for discoveries button which was added for people to find other people.

Even if it has no multiplayer capability, it's ridiculous to be mad about it when there was never any substance to the multiplayer

I'm certainly not mad about it, I love the game and it has exceeded my expectations.

I wonder about the scope of the outrage. Is it wide spread or just coming from the vocal minority on social media that wake up in the morning looking for something to complain about.

Outrage typically only comes from the vocal 1% of people, because it is always easier/more visible to be negative than positive. I think the vast majority of general gamers who actually knew what the game was are liking it quite a bit. The dummies who thought this was going to be a 1st person shooter in space are the ones who are pissed due to their own ignorance.

Did you not watch the video I posted? They came out days before and said no multiplayer, they've covered up the MP logo on the box, and the game doesn't require PS+.

They didn't say no multiplayer, my case has an online sticker thing on it, and lots of online games don't require PS+. Hell I'm pretty sure destiny doesn't even require PS+. You just need it for group stuff.

That's not the game's fault...that's the people not actually doing their research and letting their imagination wander despite all info pointing ti the contrary. This was always a Survival/Exploration game and was never marketed as anything else...people just decided to think what they wanted to.

Exactly my point. Destiny is online and you don't need PS Plus to access it. It just limits the game.

Just keep piling on the excuses. You can tell from his expressions that he was lying to try to sell more units and then they backtracked after it was too late for most players to cancel preorders knowing it won't get widespread coverage cause it was so close to the release.

If it's just a bug or server issue don't you think they would've said so by now?
