Hello Games after several months of calm released a major update for No Man's Sky
The company Hello Games - the developer of the game No Man's Sky, known to the public for its flaws and scandals - announced the release of a major update for its acclaimed project, which the developers reported on the official website of the game. The patch is aimed, first of all, at the creation and arrangement of the base and gives the player the opportunity to acquire transport vessels for the transportation of resources.
“Hello Games will be releasing an update for No Man's Sky this week. We call it The Foundation (Foundation), because we have added basic basic structures and a system of objects, ”say the developers.
Compared to a series of previous patches (the latter, numbered 1.09, was released on September 24), which, in fact, were hotfixes, Foundation introduces into the game those gameplay elements that were promised by Shaun Murray and his team at the game development stage.

Developers in their appeal to the players actually recognize that the game requires serious improvement, and also again make promises. This time, the Foundation is only the first serious patch in a series of future updates.
“For nine weeks, our small development team worked hard to create, test, and certify the Foundation update. It will not be our biggest patch, but this is the beginning of something. ”
Since the very active start in August of this year, followed by a storm of criticism and accusations of deliberate deception, the Hello Games fell silent. According to statistics SteamDB, the popularity of the game on the PC all the time has been steadily falling. From starting 200,000 online players, the average daily game attendance dropped to 600-700 people per day.
However, the statement made by the developers (the post was published on the game's blog on November 25) shook up the interest of the audience and raised online on the PC to 8,000 players per day, a record for No Man's Sky.
According to the general reaction of the community and the gaming press, one can make a cautious conclusion that part of the audience is ready to give No Man's Sky a second chance and the game is not completely buried yet, because Murray and the team have promised a lot. But in order to meet the expectations of the players No Man's Sky will have to refine a very long time. The main requirement of the community is the network mode, it has not been implemented in the Foundation update, and so far there are no hints that it will appear at all in the NMS.
