Important details of "No Man's Sky" have been released for the players before they play the video game. They are advised to download the Day One patch right away before playing.
The most hyped space exploration video game lets players live their wildest science fiction exploration fantasies, according to The Verge. This will not have realistic guns, scripted scenes, or a big story, but it lets players enjoy space and planetary exploration. There will be 18 quintillion planets to explore in this game, and Hello Games is inviting everyone to explore all of them, if they can.
While the game developer's co-founder Sean Murray invited everyone to explore the video game thoroughly, it is advised to know a few details. These important details players should know before they play it thoroughly.
The first thing the players should know is to download the Day One patch immediately. According to the official website of the video game, the patch greatly changes the gameplay to make it more exciting. It increases the biodiversity of the planets, expands the inventory tools of the players, and changes some of the major parts of the main quest.
The game studio warns that the pre-patch gameplay experience was very different, compared to the gameplay after the patch was applied. The save files from before the patch will not work, which is why they said to be prepared. The new patch is approximately 842 MB, which is particularly large and long to download.
Another important detail that players should know about is that "No Man's Sky" is all about exploration. It does have a final goal for them to accomplish, which is to reach the very center of its universe. Its primary offer for them is to explore the vast, unknown universe at their own time, and make their own stories along the way.
Players should also know that must learn how to manage their resources. They are introduced to the process at the start of the video game, after being stranded on an unknown planet. At the start, they will have little information about resources, and their variety will be limited to give it a bit of a challenge.
Money is also important in this video game, which is why players are advised to analyze and upload information they get right away. They will be paid for discovering unknown creatures and planets by a system's space station, and other random terrestrial areas. Opportunities to purchase new ships, multitools, and suit upgrades appear from time to time, which is why they should have funds ready at all times.
Players should also know that their ships have four speeds of travel, which are basic acceleration, basic turbo, using the pulse engine, and hyperspeed for traveling between planets. To get to a point where it is only a short distance away, they should use the pulse drive. For those who are on a planet and the goal has an average distance, they should leave the atmosphere, use the pulse drive, and then fly back down.
"No Man's Sky" has different kind of species to discover. Some of these creatures are intelligent, and there are also some of them are just in the wild. Players are advised to not pick fights against these unknown creatures, because they will be troubled with the galactic police.
