Yeah I think I got spoiled with my opening planet, there was a 20ft tall pillar of the stuff about a minute from my ship, and whenever I scanned there was vast amounts of stuff to investigate. On the minus side, the brainwalkers are really aggressive bastards, but I've just upgraded my gun so I shall now be killing them. @Eriku that planet looks immense, I'm on my second planet now and it's a radioactive wonderland with floating rocks.
On getting more suit slots - there are a few buildings around where you can occasionally find upgrades either for free or to buy, just got to explore a bit and look out for the question marks.
Yeah, keep going to the various landmarks on planets (white question mark on green background). You find various things at them. At one I found a thing where I could purchase an extra suit slot for 10,000 units.
It's a pretty planet, but the deadness meant that I left it pretty soon thereafter.
I've definitely been stressing the suit upgrades. Also got myself a nice upgraded multi tool. Can't wait till I can spring for a nicer ship, gotta figure out how to get some money going for me.
I actually thought i'd find this game boring, but iv'e sunk in 4 hours and time has just flown by. My only issue is the lack of marking where you've been. Once you start wondering it's hard to go back.
Also i found a crashed ship that game offered to trade upto for free. i didn't accept because i'd thought i'd use my current ship to gather the resources needed. feck knows where it is now.

so worth getting lads? its out tomorrow on PC
I have everything taken in ship slots.
Where the feck is the galactic trade network? I need to sell a lot of stuff. I have some galactic jewelry which is useless.
When you go on the space station you can trade with other ships that land, or at the sphere type thing in the room upstairs. You occasionally find them on planets too.
Anyone got attacked by pirates yet? I want to do some gold runs to get a ton of units, but am concerned they might turn up.
I haven't played it but the consensus is you'll either be bored to tears or heavily immersed depending on the type of gamer you are.
If you're undecided wait for a couple of reviews.
I found a gold asteroid type thing which I blew up and farmed the hell out of
Didn't see any pirates yet, but also haven't tried to sell it yet...
I got antimatter and traveled to another universe. It's incredible. There's oceans there.

Galaxy I meant. I am in a new galaxy, and they have the ugliest and the most beautiful planet there.
i had the same reaction
Oh I see. I was just looking at the star map and it was completely overwhelming, dread to think what it looks like when other galaxies are taken into account
Scale is just unreal.Been stuck in a cave for best part of an hour now
I'm enjoying this, though I haven't got away more than 50 yards from my starting location in two hours or so. Want to stock up effectively on the best resources I can get around here. A cave just below the ship seems endless and has Plutonium and Aluminium. About to fly out of here now for the first time. Wish me luck. It's lonely and cold out there.
I've been pretty much nonstop playing for the past 10 hours, with a few breaks here and there. Did my first warp, found a planet that was teeeeming with life, I discovered like 7 species in 5 minutes. Have also gotten a far better multi-tool and a ship with 17 slots and better weapons. Good to have when the pirates descend! Have killed like 4 of them.
No north or south in these planets? That's an earth thin, right? I'm totally lost, I'll never find my original landing place again, will I?
Your ship appears on the compass at the top of the screen. That'll point you in the general direction. Also some outposts have teleporters.
I've got a good thing going at the moment with a planet abundant with Plutonium, and an orbiting space station that buys it at a premium of over 100%
I am, however, a cheapskate and want to find a ship with more capacity rather than spend all my precious units on one. May be here a while! Also quite attached to this system, the native alien folk love me.

Just landed on a planet with rare items and some pissed off sentinels, retreated to its moon, where the sentinels were also pissed off, and the atmosphere and rain were toxic as feck! Less than a minute after going out I'd have lost my toxicity protection, and it seemed like severe storms were the norm.
Completely took me by surprise, and was far rougher going. If I'd have spawned on that planet first......

I haven't spent so many hours on a game since probably Skyrim. It just hooks you and doesn't let go.
How did you find antimatter? I've been looking for ages.
You need to follow the "quest" markers, you should eventually get given some antimatter to mark a warp cell with, which fuels the hyperdrive. Then once you've travelled to the next system, you should get a marker to a place where you'll find the recipe for it.
In my second system I landed on the planet, saw a fifty foot high lump of gold, spent about twenty minutes mining it, then flew off only to have my first run-in (read: death at the hands of) pirates
Not sure there's actually any long term consequence to dying though, given you can just fly back to your death spot and pick up your inventory.Any tips on navigating the map? I flew from my planet to a space station that was close by, and that is near another planet so will explore that one next. But no idea how to navigate or plan longer flights.
I was worried that it was going to be tough to find resources to keep your suit up and running - but thankfully carbon seems fairly abundant - at least it was on my first planet! Am assuming that because it comes from plants then you should be able to find it most places...

I just went and bought it and then learned to craft it.
Been landing on some truly bland planets for the last couple of hours, no desire to stay even for 10 minutes.
Once you get your hyperdrive you can warp to another galaxy by bringing up the Galactic Map when you are in orbit.
You will most likely find plutonium on every planet which can also power your suit and ships.
Also if you care about multiplayer a lot stay away.
Cheers!
I have a fair bit of plutonium, but haven't used that for my suit as I thought it might be needed by something else - I guess if its relatively easy to acquire then makes sense to use it.
What a beautiful but soul crushingly boring game.
Massive let down for me and I've pumped about 10 hours into it.

You've pumped 10 hours into something you find boring in a day?
In the hope that something good would come of it.
I'm not going to write off such a big game after 2 hours, but if after persevering for 10 hours the game hasn't got me then it never will.
Its weird, but strangely addictive
I sunk 4 hours into it on my first go and I never do that to new games and all I want to do is go home already and play more
Im not sure I would recommend it or not though

So from everything I've seen, you'll either love it with a passion, or hate it with a passion... sound about right?
What are the space fights like? That interested me the most.

I'm enjoying it so far, although i can see why people get bored. Personally i think they have a good basis of a game, a few more features and it'll be great.
- Base Building (which i think is coming)
- Space Station building
- Create ships, all the way from small ships to massive freighters.
- Fix multiplayer.
- Trade Stations become auction houses so game has it's own economy.
- Maps (let me know where iv'e been and how to get back)

Still getting to grips with this game, sunk about another 2 hours into it last night. Ended up on my fourth planet which was literally covered in water and discovered some strange as feck looking fish. Managed to doa little trading on the previous planet but Ive no idea if I should be hanging onto stuff so I tend to be hoarding for the moment. Think when I play it later tonight I will just sell like crazy and one of the planets Ive been on seems to be covered in gold so should be able to sell that and make a lot of credits to buy stuff. Considering how vast and how lonely this game is its amazing how its keeping my interest. It seems to be a really slow burner so I think I will keep playing it but in spurts where I play for about 4 hours then don't play for a couple of days. The variety in some of the planets is crazy.
So this is my first planet, it was pretty good, some nice rock formations and decent amount of Flora/Fauna to keep me interested beyond getting my ship repaired. I didn't want to redeem the pre-order ship though as It already has a warp drive so I wanted to get to that point before getting that one. Looks like something Sonic The Hedgehog would be running about in
I just love some of the visuals in this game, the graphics are fairly basic for PS4 but the art direction just brings it to another level, it like something straight out of an old sci-fi book
After leaving my planet I just pretty much explored all the other planets in my system, went on a bit of a Gold mining binge on one and with luck found out they were buying it in the space station at about 8% the Galactic average so netted myself about 200,000 units for that pretty early on then warped to another system, explored all the planet on this one, got attacked and killed by space pirates twice so figured I should boost my ships defences, warped again once I'd seen enough of my second system.
The first planet on my third system was a surprise, it had all these really valuable glowing balls lying about & the fecking sentinals there would pretty much just attack you on sight, picking up one of the balls got you a 3 star wanted level and dog sentials chasing me, managed to grab three before I got the feck out of there. Again explored the planets, set myself little missions to get upgrades for my ship/suit etc whilst visiting the various mission locations on each and did some mining to get myself past 1,000,000 Units. I also had my first 'getting lost in a cave' experience here.
Since the third system I've been less ocd about having to exploring all of the planets, I'll usually have a look about and if it seems a bit bare I'll check out an outpost or a ruin to learn some words then head on and if it looks good I'll set myself some missions & generally have a bit of a wander far from my ship to see if I get into any mini adventures.
Next up I'm gonna either get a new ship or upgrade my current Hyperdrive with a blueprint I got and try to find an Atlas Station, and hopefully finaly get one of those damn Atlas keycards.
