You guys aren't understanding,  I'm talking about a centralized hub type thing. Kinda like the auction houses in Wow or tunnel in EQ

there are none in a game that is focusing on exploration of a nearly infinite universe. listen to the game shawn is describing when he talks about no man's sky,.. don't think about the other games you've played and try and make no man's sky a different game than what it is.

Spoiler for Hidden:
Here&#39;s what will happen. &nbsp;They will have the game completely and entirely set up so no one will ever see another player ever. &nbsp;<br>Except when two players meet at the center. &nbsp;That&#39;s the secret!<br><br>But really I&#39;m making it up. &nbsp;<br>

Apparently they can't see each other though? Would be hilarious if it turns out the game doesn't even have any MP.

I'm chalking it up to server issues. The game has been having a lot of those.

Would be pretty odd for Hello Games to straight up lie about this feature.




Also apparently like 4 other cases of people getting to the same spot have happened. Two people even started on the same planet.

How?
Although, I suppose if the random number generator is based on the time, then it might not be so ridiculously impossible.

18 quintillion planets, but everyone starts in the same galaxy. Plus everyone starts the same distance from the edge.

That seems a little lame. :P

Looks like I win here as well. I knew people would spawn nearby each other
