There will be no early review copies of No Man's Sky but that hasn't stopped various press outlets and even regular gamers from getting their hands on early versions of the game through other sources. Unfortunately for those that have managed to start playing early, those save files will no longer work after the day-one patch, indicating that some significant changes are included.
Sony has said that the day-one patch will actually go live on Monday, less than 24 hours ahead of the game's release on Tuesday. As Game Informer reports, Sony has described the patch as “significant” to the full vision for the game.
No Man's Sky creator, Sean Murray has also taken to Twitter once again to ask that reviewers don't play their early copies of the game as it isn't representative of what players will experience on day one: “If you are reviewing/playing our game without our update, on a leaked copy, then please don't. It's not what players will experience.”
So it could be a while before we start to see reviews of No Man's Sky for PS4. Those wanting to get the PC version will be able to pick it up a few days late, on the 12th of August on Steam. We will be doing a game analysis of the PC version once it's out, so if you want to see how well it runs, keep an eye out for that.
KitGuru Says: If the day one patch is enough to make previous saves obsolete, then it would be interesting to see the comparison between the gold-version of the game and the post-patch version. Are any of you guys waiting to pick up No Man's Sky? Are you going to be waiting to see reviews first?
Refusing to send out review copies of a game never bodes well… I continue to lose faith that No Man’s Sky will live up to expectations.
I lost faith once I realized it’s a single player game, and nowadays, single player game is not enough for $60 AAA price, UNLESS it is so damn good and long enough. How I see it, is that it would be some crazy repetitive end game…well, will there be an end game I have no idea, but it doesn’t look good to me.
Elite dangerous doesn’t do the end game well, if you played more than 100 hours, that’s it you will be bored by then. So for me – Star Citizen FTW!

I’ve been play Star Citizen since the alpha launched and it’s been quite the bumpy ride, still though I have hundreds of hours pumped into Arena Commander alone so it’s arguably paid for itself it cost $60…I’ve pledged more than that so I still have to play many more hours to pay for the game.
An alpha test is normal to be bumpy. I want them to take their time and make this game a milestone to be played for ages. Just like Wing Commander, just like Starlancer and Freelancer that i STILL play, enjoy and love back from 2003. Not to mention Freelancer even has a multiplayer servers working 🙂
How should I put it… No Man’s Sky has NO EXCUSE to force us into a single player experience. If you could call friends and play Co-Op, then id accept it and gadly buy it, but i do not see the point of this. I can tell you better spend your money on a new ship in Star Citizen, on a new multiplayer game you like. For me, this game is a failure, and a waste of money and time to explore and reach the center of the universe…ALONE! :/ Why not with group of friends???!!!
