Why is this game suddenly in top sales list on steam and positive reviews?

I mean its on sale but its still over 20 bux. I dont how this game is even worth playing for free.

Did something change? Did they add real multiplayer or story line?
>>
>>386945442
It looks like a good deal was changed and fixed. I wasn't a retard and didn't buy at release, but for 20$, I picked it up yesterday. As far as I can tell, it now has, added since release..

>Base Building
>Freighters and fucktons of new ships
>Improved grinding (lol)
>Actual storyline
>Procedural missions and quests
>Improved factions, added factions, faction quests
>Cars n shit
>Agriculture and enhanced crafting
>16 person multiplayer
>Instant transfer between planet and atmosphere
>Less-shit UI
>Look nicer

Honestly considering I've already dumped 10-12 hours in two days, its well on its way to earning that 20$.

I saw on a youtube video that a new patch had been released and observed that the comments were largely positive. Had about 90% likes to dislikes ratio.

Came here to ask you if it's worth pic related, luckily found this thread. I feel like it might be, but I'm cautious.
>>
>>386945936
The reason it's up there is because it's on sale for about 20 bux.

Could be a fun game now, or all the positives are just shills

>>
>>386945442
It got a bunch of superficial updates that don't really do anything to alter the absolutely garbage core "gameplay" or "exploration" yet give the illusion of fixing up the game so they've successfully tricked some more idiots into giving them more money.

My biggest complaint is that it still runs like ass on my computer everything else seems much better.

Fixed game meme, don't pay much attention to the updates in making your decision. I dunno if I'd buy it now if you weren't hyped for it before the launch failure.

Disable Steam overlay, worked for me.

I might try to get back into it, I bought NMS during a deep sale, here are my genuine criticisms of it.
Overall a 3-4/10 right now. It's major problem is that Hello Games has no clue how to make an open world style game with multiple objectives. You will be begging for the Ubisoft checklist stuff after a few hours with NMS. The game is torn between being a chill space adventure and something where it constantly feels the need to give you something to do.
The game is honestly exhausting to play. About a million goddamn UI elements pop up or sound off at any given moment telling you about something. There are meters constantly ticking down whenever you explore, so you better get running asshole, and find those elements to refuel everything. The UI for Mouse and Keyboard is one of the most unintuitive things I've ever played, and it makes every simple action seem like it has completely unnecessary steps. The inventory space is a constant limiter, and again, in a completely pointless way. It doesn't add tension, it's just annoying. The game feels tedious to play, without any real reason or justification.
There was a moment where I flew in on a planet classified as a 'Paradise' type and started skimming over small lush islands separated by a vibrant blue sea, and the intent of NMS clicked with me. But I just don't think that the base gameplay loop is good enough or engaging enough.

New mega patch...

Well what other game lets me fly ships and explore a range of planets?

So they added multiplayer and actual variety to the planets now?
>>
>>386945947
pirate it you retard, it still has none of the promised shit.

>>386948512
yea

Stockholm syndrome. A developer can treat "gamers" like complete shit and they'll fall in love with them.

>>386948512
The multiplayer is still early in development, but the single player experience is vastly improved.
>>
>>386948653
Then you wouldn't mind showing me a video of this multiplayer in action would you, Sean?

>>386948512
Orbs. Multiplayer is Orbs. Even Dark Souls has proper multiplayer.
>>
>>386948512
>>386948807

They've added a weak mutliplayer function into the game. They're on their way to actually making this into a REAL multiplayer game.
>>
>>386946607
I also played a bit of the update. I agree it's still a bit retarded but at least now I can actually call it a game considering there are actual goals to accomplish.

Why the fuck would you be so autistic about multiplayer in a randomly generated exploration game? Fucking gen Z.

Everything has to have multiplayer these days. It's funny because the best game in this whole genre of open world survival crafting games is single player only.

Did you read the recent reviews?

All those recent positive reviews are all the same and just trying to trick you to buy, they even put in the sale at the same time because they are so desperate for buyers

Meanwhile all negative get insta thumb downs by hello games and sony defence force

>>386945442
faggots on reddit who got hyped for it pre-release then let down have gotten hyped again because of the new update (too little too late) and are now making an organized effort to leave positive reviews or change their old reviews to positive. Fittingly many of them started doing this before the new update even hit.

Just buy the game and find out. But the game is so big the chances that you will meet other players are very small.

What's the point of base building or agriculture when all your progress on that planet will get deleted forever as soon as you visit more planets?
>>
>>386952024
Because not only can you save your base via "packing" it and subsequently unloading it on another planet (which is hard and annoying as shit), but you can also have your own Freighter, which is mobile and permanant.
>>
>>386952024
Your base wont get deleted though?
>>
>>386948463

Delete the shader cache and if that doesn't work use DDU to reinstall your graphic card driver.

The updates so far have been great and Hello Games in my opinion have largely won back respect. However for me I still want the promised clan battles and over all the deeper warfare as shown prior to the games release. If they finally update NMS with those aspects, It will be a 10/10 for me.
