Yeah this event was a "shti" show. last way point not materializing, time running out. Ship no longer attainable. So how do i get a Normandy now that a bug kept me from getting it in the first place? making it a timed thing really ruins it. Sean, you really "Eff'ed" this one into the ground...

Game's pretty now tho at least...

Planes and trains can't be brought back because of very specific and tangible reasons: it costs a lot of money and indirect losses for the people onboard. These reasons don't apply to games.

Except, it does apply. The developers decided to take the game in this direction. They spent countless hours and money developing the Expeditions, and planned how they should function as temporary leagues, with the special incentives of unlocking stuff for your main account.

The whole 'pull' for systems like these, ARE the fact that you can only get certain items during these events.

So, if they changed this, it would completely null and void the whole allure of these Expeditions.

These expeditions are stupid Latest stunt from them with the normandy was To acquire A lot of mass effect players who love it and so forth Spend Money on getting the game so they could get the normandy So My conclussion is they made a deal with EA to seel this stuff in return that EA would get Stupid Amounts of money So the True Conclussional Facts is that they are Exceptional Money Grabbers that even can't tell the Truth so I hope you have a great day Realizing what they Totally and Thruthfully are Money Grabbers...

That does not make sense and is easily disproven by other games with seasonal content: many racing games recycled the seasons into offline events after some time as it expanded the value of the game. Expeditions help discover new features in the game while incentivising the return of older experienced players. This makes the events a positive experience. There's nothing preventing a return of older expeditions or having an alternate way of unlocking the content later on especially given the many updates recently.

No you exist in the world of theory where everything you scribble down always comes to be. We live in the world of reality however and here you make no sense.

Your point might possibly be valid if you were making it about a game that didn't have an almost 6 year history of free upgrades.

I got No Man's Sky last year after the Desolation update (it was on sale; I'm cheap) and I figured it was at the end of its update cycle (already over twice as long as that for most games), but there have been four more updates since I bought it, and they don't appear to be slowing down.

You guys are being silly....honestly.

You got your core game, with your main save.., now instead of just farming and mining the same things, you get to go on these temp expeditions, for free, and unlock some cool ♥♥♥♥ for your main account.

If you were late for the party now, I bet you won't be late for the next one. School fees paid.

Ich finde es schade das diese Event zeit begrenzt ist/war Hatte heute beim stöbern mal wieder bei No Man's Sky rein geschaut und dachte geiles Update und wollte wieder anfangen zu zocken um mir auch diese tolle Schiff zu holen doch beim lesen der Patch notes kam dann die Ernüchterung das es nur bis zum 31 Mai möglich war! Naja dann eben nicht, zocke ich halt was anderes....

I would love new planets, enemies, species, discoveries and more story. the game feels kinda empty after playing it for a while. now it feels like no matter how much you travel you never find anything new. Graphics update is always nice but it doesn't make the game better or more interesting.

you say we are silly Who the heck makes expiditions temporary it's such a stupid idea if they want to grow there community Huh Purse then they should at least make it playable after some time to those fans who couldn't get it because they were on a damn Vacation... They are and will always be money Grabbers Nothing else Every big company is money Hungry Bastards...

...i know this is an unpopular opinion, but i hate this...its a complete immersion breaking affront to art style, yes The Normandy is a great space ship but it dose not fit in NMS

To each their own. I thought it looked great and fits really nicely whenever I see it in the game, especially when it first appeared in the sky of the final expedition planet, that was epic!

well ♥♥♥♥ i missed it

"Only available until May 31st" <-- Why the ♥♥♥♥ did anyone think that was a good idea?

I absolutely loathe "for a limited time only" artificial pressure. It only serves to create anxiety, dread, and an arbitrary and capricious fear of missing out. ESPECIALLY since you gave no advance warning, and the quest is bugged for many reportedly.

I read somewhere that all previous expeditions will be available for everyone, although I can't confirm. Would make sense anyway, since it's extra content.
