The foundation patch has the usual bug fixes and tweaks, but the Hello Games No Mans Sky Update also includes player bases, and more lively planets.
The guys at The Zombie Chimp dived right in and took a look. Did the Foundation Patch bring the fun back to NMS?
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Today, Koei Tecmo announced its financial results for the full fiscal year 2025, related to the period between April 2025 and March 2026.
The patch(if you could simply call it that) adds a ton to the game. It's ALMOST minecraft in space now. Base building seriously changes the way the game can be played. I set up a home base on a cold, snowy planet, and I use my teleporter to travel to a system with more resources to mine. There's a lot more elements to gather now, too, but they're much more scarce on the planets themselves. You can also scan planets before you even bother to land on them now, which helps if you're looking for a specific thing to mine for. The space battles are better, and make more sense, but they're still not perfect (a bit too easy). If the game launched like this, it would have been received very differently. There's still more for them to do, but I really like the way the game is headed and I hope ship building and land vehicle building are in the works.
