PC No Man's Sky Three Day Delay; Server Wipe Plans

[Aug 06, 2016, 10:59 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Accompanied by two apologies, Sean Murray of Hello Games tweets an announcement that No Man's Sky will come on August 12th. This was due on the 9th alongside the PS4 version of the space game. He says, "PC NMS release will now be global and will be August 12th worldwide. It's so important we get it right and make the best version we can." On a related note, Harry Denholm tweets a server wipe is coming on Sunday, which should reduce the impact of early leaked copies. Thanks GameInformer.

I don't get the server wipe. From what I understand there is no persistence. That world that you visited is not stored someplace once you leave and even if it was, the chances of someone else landing there are slim. So who cares if someone else's character is a bit more developed? Not as if you are going to meet someone else. Your skills and equipment have zero effect on anyone else. Hence why the server wipe? BTW if they had only added purpose to this game beyond getting to the center. The old Starflight game structure would have been perfect. As the game stands, beyond initial play there is no point in playing it. If you throw full price at this game, must be nice to have unlimited funds...
