The glitch giveth, and the glitch taketh away. Played a permdeath game of No Man's Sky. At the beginning I found a glitch that let me sell the same stuff to a trade terminal over and over again. Got a few million units from that. Got farther in this game than I ever have before. Then, died when a sentinel interceptor glitched _into_ my ship and held it in one place while his 7 friends beat the crap out of me.
@ScionAltera has the pirate update been fixed yet? It really turned me off from the game.
@thewebrecluse I'm not sure. In the game I was just talking about there were pirates freaking everywhere. Seemed like every time I went into space I'd run into one. I got pretty good at racing through asteroid fields to lose them. I saw the pirate update came out but I haven't been keeping track of patches.
@thewebrecluse I started up a new normal game after that happened and it's much more relaxed. I haven't seen a pirate so far and several of the planets don't have sentinels. Maybe it feels sorry for me! 😂
@ScionAltera I got mauled by pirates. They were literally firing on me FROM SPACE while I walked around in my base ... it was like wtf ...
@thewebrecluse Holy cow. I never had that happen. I ducked into the space station a couple times to see the pirate sitting RIGHT THERE at the entrance. I also saw pirates inside the atmosphere a bunch of times but I was always able to keep clear of those.
@ScionAltera I think it was a weird glitch they fixed on the experimental branch but not in the current release. I'm glad you're not having too much trouble with them. I'll all for adding more combat for people that want it, but their should be a toggle to turn pirate battles off for people who want more peace and quiet 😆
@thewebrecluse 100%. A slider or something to say how piratey you want your game to be would be awesome. I was able to steer clear of the pirates in most cases. I saw them everywhere but I'd duck through asteroids or into the station or onto a planet and they wouldn't chase me. So maybe they did tone it down for the official release?
How piratey do you want your pirates? Mild. Hot. Super spicy? 😂
@ScionAltera doesn't sound like they have fixed it then. I play NMS to relax and just enjoy it and the pirate update just really ruined that for me. They said they were going to tone things down but it doesn't sound like they have.
