No Man's Sky players looking for some spooky and claustrophobic action can look to today's deployment of The Abyss. Players will gain access to "aquatic environments with over five times more variety, new submersible vehicles, improved underwater visuals and much more". The Dreams of the Deep is a new series of aquatic missions that send players off on a journey of discovery as they track down a stranded freighter and its troubled crew.

    I love this game, It always works it way back into my rotaion during lulls where this is nothing to play. Unfortuently between RDR2 and F076 on the way i just don't have the time for any more games. /buys lotto ticket

    I've been waiting for this. Some of the lore bits at abandoned buildings and the events have hinted at it. It was brought up on reddit a week or so ago and modders datamined some more info. It's been fun waiting for it.

    Hopefully I can buy an S-Class underwater mod now. I blew mine up moving mods around for adjacency improvements and haven't been able to find another. I mistakenly thought I'd bought it but must have got it from damaged tech.

    The only down side to this is I'm still 568,030 LY from the galactic core. This is going to sidetrack and stall that quest for a while. I've made about 100K LY this week hopping black holes.
    There is no rush :)

    Yes, I got it for $29.99 on a Steam sale when NEXT launched a few months ago.

    So NMS has underwater exploration, who knew?

    I did notice exosuit modules for sale which extended underwater capacity, but I only recall crossing one significantly spanse of water on the 4 or 5 worlds I've explored so far, none with large bodies of water or even irradiated.

    So far all I've explored are toxic, inferno and lush tropical planets.

    So much to do, so little time.

    I may be playing this game for many years to come, might actually become my first game ever "in rotation."

    Looks rushed,like VERY rushed.
    The animation is the same walking/running animation and does not look like an undersea animation.

    There doesn't look to be much more than a generated land mass with water effects/fog lighting.

    I am not blaming this developer fro at least trying but we are a very long ways away from pulling off a game like this in HQ form.

    At the very least,a minimum of 10+ years before it is possible,like 15+ years.So until that time,we wil just get cheap low quality ideas like this.Yeah it is a start but imo not worth my time ,there is just not enough there to warrant a purchase.

    I bought NMS for the PS4 right before Next launched for like 10 dollars, I really need to give it a shot. I've logged in a couple times but never dropped enough time to actually experience what the game has to offer. This makes me want to go play it right now. Looks really cool.

    How does multiplayer work in this game? I know it's only 4 person coop but how does it work in relation to base building? What I mean is, lets say you build a base as a group of players and a few players gotta log for the night. Can they hop back on and continue working on your base or is the base saved to the host? Or is it similar to ARC where it saves to a server and can always be up so other ppl in your group can hop in and contribute to your base?

    This type of game goals are very important to keep one working towards it. Then all the resource collection and time spent looking for materials and building is worth it when the goal is achieved.

    Just watched the video and I've had this game since launch and have been dabbling with it more in recent months.  I started a new game a month ago not knowing ocean exploration was getting reworked and I'm really happy I chose a nice ocean world for my main base. 

    I have not regretted paying full price for this game and it's been my Go To single player game since the summer.

    Good job on the NMS team for not giving up and making good progress like this, if only Elite Dangerous would follow in the same vein!

    It was really cheap last year, $9.99 or $11.99 something like that. I wish I had bought it then because as of recent, there hasn't been many good sales on it.
