    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I'll still predict that the whole world is discovered within a couple months in that.

    It took the world 2489 days to reach the end in Noby Noby Boy.

    The universe in No Man's Sky is exponentially bigger than the galaxy in Noby Noby Boy.

    So I predict it will take a little longer than a couple of months for every planet to be discovered.

    The bigger question is, will the game be any good and or fun?

    PS3 game from the guy who made Katamari Damacy. You run around as Boy eating stuff, the more you eat the longer you grow, and every player reports their total length in a play session to make Girl stretch across the galaxy. Every time she reaches a new planet, that planet becomes a new level in the game for everyone to play.
    Giving up in 2020. Who cares.

    Sounds weird, and not like No Man's Sky.

    So what I'm hearing about No Man's Sky, is that if you discover a planet, and you're the first person playing NMS to ever discover that planet, then you get to name it, and that is the name of the planet for everyone playing NMS. So, what that means, is that when I fire the game up for the first time, all of the planets within hours of flying will have had their names set by a bunch of jackass teenagers who pre-loaded the game onto their console of choice or PC and have been playing for about 18 hours straight before I even had gotten a chance to play it (and this, assuming I play it on launch day).

    Not sure about you guys, but I can see running across a planet named FvCKURM0th3R kinda souring the experience for me. I hope there is a way to turn this off and set the names of the planets for me and me alone.

    I've heard that the chances of a player ever running into another player, or another player's planets, is incredibly rare, because the universe is so huge. The chances will grow as players move towards to goal and converge at the center of the universe, but that will probably take us all some amount of time.

    There are more planets in the game than grains of sand on Earth.

    I really don't think you guys understand just how massive the universe is.

    People will be tired of the game before even a fraction of them are discovered.

    This past week, No Man's Sky developer, Hello Games, mentioned that it uses a 64-bit seed to generate its planets. That got picked up by a few folks and they began saying things like "Seeing everything in No Man's Sky will take over five billion years." That may seem impressive, but it's inaccurate...

    Apparently it's such a huge number that when people starting claiming it'd take 5 billion years to see every planet for one second in No Man's Sky, nobody decided to check that figure. It'd actually take more than 500 billion years – or 42 times the age of the Universe.

    So yeah - the chances of you running into Planet CockSucking xXGAY420SmokeDaWgXx are pretty slim.

    Ah, so basically everyone starts in some remote corner of the universe, then, rather than everyone starts on planet A? Okay, that I can deal with.

    I'll be perfectly content just exploring new planets. Sounds like the perfect game for chilling out with a cold one after the kids are in bed.

    Will the planets be fully explorable? Or will there be like 30 square meters on every planet, and 2 or 3 interesting things to see?

    New species, plants, animals, civilizations, enemies and sometimes nothing on each planet. Not sure about the scope of the planet though.
