Sean Murray tweets a reminder that the PC edition of No Man's Sky will launch today. This tweet says this will be a 2.6 GB download, but that preloads are not available. Finally, he offers a schedule of when the game will unlock in various regions. Correcting his use of Standard Time, the game's global launch should come at 1:00 pm EDT. To pave the way, a post on the No Man's Sky website discusses issues players are encountering in the space exploration game. These apply to the already released PS4 edition, but many of the workarounds they offer will apply to today's PC release as well. Here's word on how they are ramping up support along with some temporary fixes:

Here are some things to be aware of:

• We’ve brought a new QA team on board today (larger than the entire Hello Games team!). This will complement the existing Sony QA team.
• We are working on fixes for the most critical issues, which will be in a patch in the near future.
• We will be moving to a ticketed support system next week, and have hired someone to manage this starting Monday.
• Some information will be posted in the Sony forums here http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/Games-Services/bd-p/22190
• Or contact Hello Games here http://www.no-mans-sky.com/support/

Workarounds

Here are some workarounds for some known issues:

• If you believe you are stuck, or can’t reach your ship, be aware you can jetpack forever whilst pushing against any surface
• If you have made a mistake – you can revert to any of your two previous saves in the Options Menu
• If you have left your ship somewhere inaccessible, you will be able to summon it from landing pads or beacons found at most buildings or points of interest (marked by question marks)
