Oops, it is still a single player grind fest.

They seem to be doing a decent job in at least attempting to patch up the disaster that was NMS's launch.

Yes and no. Everything they've added so far sounds good... but it doesn't fix the underlying issue I have with the game - it's basically single player still. Once they enable a true multiplayer experience where I can team up with some amigos, I might give it a look.

For the large number of us that *keep* banging on about multiplyer, you were clearly not following any of the news before release!

With that said, the content *was* incredibly inadequate on release. With the last few updates it has become a LOT better - this update looks like it will fix the last few of my big gripes! Having different classes of ships and weapons is brilliant. I would like the planets to be a lot more diverse and rich, but hey...they're making giant steps forward! =D

Why is this even on here? The company doesn't deserve free publicity. You don't cover other game patches so why this game?

@GASARAKI:

Tom's covers game software (projected requirements, and etc.) all the time. "Doesn't deserve..." Hey man, it's their site. They can cover a Hamburglar sim for all I care--if you're not interested don't read it.

I like Motherboards titles for this article. "'No Man's Sky' Just Announced Another Big Update, But Do We Care at This Point?"

Well I for one am glad it's single player. I play games to avoid human interaction. Open in Elite Dangerous for example, shows why. It is only for masochists and trolls.
