No Man's Sky

No - No Man's Sky on Xbox One, and here's why.

First Class Treatment. AKA Microsoft's strict launch parity policy,

So I will start by explaining what this means.

Microsoft's strict launch parity policy, which means that Xbox must have first or equal rights to a game’s release date or no Xbox release at all. which means that Xbox must have first or equal rights to a game’s release date or no Xbox release at all.

Which I think is redundant. If you wanted us to feel like first class you would not care when the game is released on your console, but you would make sure that these awesome games are released on your console period, knowing it would bring more player's back
to your console.

Now I have to buy either a PS4 or new graphic card for my PC, and I'm thinking of buying the PS4. Because my PC simply just suck's and I think it needs more than a graphic card, so the cheaper route is to buy the PS4.

So here is some more info on the matter at hand, about why we won't get No Man's Sky.

"There may be a chance for No Man’s Sky to make it to Microsoft’s flagship console, however. Chris Charla, the director of ID@Xbox, has recently said the he
“would love to see” No Man’s Sky on the Xbox One. Charla was speaking on , and revealed that a workaround for the
launch parity clause could be found if Hello Games wanted to discuss a Xbox One release."

"The comments seem to contradict the previous Microsoft party line, particularly when Hello Games has made No Man’s Sky’s release schedule well-known
for some time. Charla did explain a little further about how the space exploration title could make its way onto the Xbox One. He stated thatID@Xbox is willing to find a middle ground with developers who would find sticking to the launch parity
policy difficult. “When we talk to developers, we try to be really transparent,” said Charla."

"Charla’s comments continue the trend that sees Microsoft’s launch policy grow softer and softer. Although Phil Spencer has previously stated the policy has to stay in place to make Xbox One owners feel “first
class,” Charla has recently made it clear that the publisher is not as strict as it first appears. Apparently, Microsoft is more
than willing to reach a compromise when developers are struggling with either time or financial constraints. It appears that a situation with resource management will not cause a game to lose out on an eventual Xbox One release."

So I thought of a way to give Phil Spencer and Chris Charla, well all of Microsoft a better understanding by making this forum for you the players of Xbox.

I'd like you all to reply with how you feel about Microsoft's strict launch parity policy, which means that Xbox must have first or equal rights to a game’s release date or no Xbox release at all. By you commenting
No more first class treatment and maybe some detail as to why, if you feel like it. Or yes first class treatment and maybe some detail, if you feel like it.

Hopefully, Microsoft will learn this is a tearable policy, and that we Xbox gamers don't like it.

I hope you agree and have a nice day.

For all, I won't be replying to any comment this is my opinion.

No Man's Sky

No Man's Sky finaly made it to the Xbox One (X)!

Waiting for this game the day it released, offcourse it had its own bumpy little road, but with 3 major updates and the NEXT update on the horizon the game made some huge improvements.

Can't wait to play this game and discover al there is, hopefully with some friends in the new multiplayer! ;-)

No man's sky

Not sure. Can you show us a screen grab?

 

I don't think this is really policy anymore. There are plenty of indie games that aren't strictly on Xbox One at the same time as their PS4 launch, or PC for that matter. And there's no way a "must-have" title like Rocket League would be denied.

As for No Man's Sky, well it is more cerebral as a game so even if it did get an Xbox One port I don't think that it would find a big audience here. Plus, for some people they are learning that they are more in love with the concept of the game than the
actual game itself; It is a technical achievement and a landmark game, but it's not fun for everyone.

 

It will come to Xbox.

I don't know if you remember but when Hello Games had a flood at there office it was Xbox that stood up and helped them get back on there feet.
