No Man’s Sky website suggests the PC build will be a few days late

4.6

No Man’s Sky may take a few additional days to reach the PC massive, which is probably going to result in several court-ordered anger management sessions.

No Man’s Sky releases on PS4 in August – it hits the North American PSN on August 9 and comes to Europe on August 10, which isn’t much of a difference once you take timezones into account.

Until recently we believed the PC version would release on the same date, too, but an update to the No Man’s Sky website suggests it won’t hit PC till August 12.

It looks to be a regional thing; in the UK, the No Man’s Sky Steam page reportedly shows an August 12 launch, while in the US it still says August 9. Here in Australia where I am we’ve got August 10 – we’re usually one day behind the US just because we live in the glorious future, even though the game may unlock at exactly the same time.

So it seems like the PC version of No Man’s Sky may not launch in the UK, and possibly Europe, till two days after the PS4 version. It’s all a bit muddy and Hello Games hasn’t made any comment on the matter yet, which is making some people very unhappy; as we saw last time No Man’s Sky was delayed, there’s a contingent of eager players with very strong and definitely frightening feelings about this game.

Haha, nice comment... although, where did I ever say I wasn't going to buy the game because of it being delayed 3 days. I think you misinterpreted what I said/was saying. Let me restate what I said, just for you.

- I am about to pre-order the game.
- If it releases on PS4 before PC that will be a bummer, because I wont have the satisfaction of finding everything out on my own. (which I enjoy)
- I said I would rather not wait a couple extra days to play the game and would, of course, enjoy having it release the same day. (That doesn't mean I wont be buying it, just means I would love to play it the same day, rather than watching streams and then playing it.)

Logically, wouldn't every PC gamer want it to release on the same date? It only makes sense.

Urf 3 days max is gonna make you not buy the game and watch streams of it just so you can complain you've been "spoiled" on the contents of the game? You're an actual child. If you can't wait 3 days for something then you're gonna have a rough life

ExoticWolfs I sure hope not, I am about to pre-order the game. I would rather not wait a couple extra days just to play it, especially when others will be playing it. If PS4 gets it before PC then that will result in me watching streams on No Man's Sky instead of just playing it. It will make the game a tad bit less fun, I won't have the satisfaction of finding everything out on my own initially. I guess we will have to wait and see.

I would like to argue that you are the child for making such a comment.
