Nope. If you die on a planet, you lose any minerals and discoveries that were carrying and hadn’t uploaded / banked. If you get shot down in space, you respawn at the nearest station and lose your ship.

He means one ship and one weapon *at a time.* You can definitely sell your ship / gun and buy a new one, but you won’t be maintaining a huge fleet or arsenal.

- Not really. Everyone exists in the same universe, but you will likely never meet another player because a) everyone starts out really far apart and b) there won’t be any in-game methods for finding and tracking other players.

Thanks for the write-up, Evan! Sean Murray mentioned that they had planned to give a release date at E3 but changed their minds at the last minute. Were you able to get any insight into what drove their decision to stay quiet on the subject? Did you get a sense of how much work the team had left ahead of them?

You don’t have to buy a sedan...

Hey Chris, is Kotaku planning a more in-depth hands-on look at No Man’s Sky? I’m so excited for it, ambiguous gameplay and all.

This is actually a weird combination of interiors. We’ve got a previous-generation Porsche PDK wheel attached to an Audi A8 dash (note the shifter and climate controls). It’s not entirely A8 though, because the screen is built into the dash rather than being attached to a retractable mount. I wonder who is responsible…

My dad’s had three!

Ahh the good old NC concept. Haven't seen that blob of nothing in a while...

Edmunds weighed a 2.0l ND Club at 2309lb. That’s just 11lb more than the published weight of a 1996 NA. Not too shabby if you ask me.

I’ve always thought they sounded pretty good provided that you’re outside of the car. From the inside they sound like coffee grinders.

The Radio Double Standard: When I’m in your car, you insist on controlling the music because, “My car, my rules.”

Steering wheels like this almost always lead to disappointment. You see the perforated leather, the flat bottom, and the crazy grips, and you think, “Yes. Driving this car is feel like piloting an X-Wing down the Death Star trench!” The almost certain reality is that the steering will be as overboosted and lifeless as…

Gotcha. In that case, the GTI really is the answer to every question. And with that statement, I've likely damned myself to a life of perpetual Jalopnik grayness. Oh well.

May I ask, how did you go about getting ungreyed? Can I be ungreyed as well?

According to the press release, the starting price is $24,915.

What kind of person puts these wheels on this car? Seriously. I want someone to explain to me the thought process behind this, because I genuinely don't understand it.

This is basically how I feel about the entire midsize sedan segment. You can get so many exciting cars for around $25k these days, and it blows my mind that people continue to buy these lumps of four-wheeled mediocrity.

Wow, my knees hurt just looking at that picture.

That was absolutely my first thought. I must be on the right website.
