Where are basic rights!
With a duo, if the second player is walking around the ship/not aboard, Buddy will man the guns. If the second player is manning the guns, it will reload the guns (even crafting the required supplies when doing so). It does not seem like it will put out fires, or do repairs.
In solo, he will use the sensors, he will man the guns, perform repairs, empty the materia collectors, accompany you on space walks, carry items back to the ship for you... Basically a ton of stuff.
What I was really impressed with is that Buddy still helps out in a duo. We would have been in trouble otherwise. Keeping the ship together during a big fight is a full-time task, so when a fire starts up, mines grab onto the hull, or repairs become necessary, the second player can hop off the guns and Buddy will take over while you put out fires, fight off boarders, etc. It's great.
And reloading the guns just means a duo can keep fighting as long as nothing is going wrong with the ship.
Essentially, you get to do the fun and chaotic parts, while Buddy picks up any slack when too many things need doing at the same time.
Played this too on the weekend, aside from clearly unfinished stuff, I was thoroughly impressed.
They even thought of solo/two player cases, with a robot crewmember that helps out with more stuff the fewer human players are on-board.
A whoo boy, the sound design is delicious. The first person guns, the ship weapons and engines both when flying/using them, and hearing them when running around the ship. The jumpdrive. The MUSIC.
The team is clearly pouring their souls into the game and it shows. The vibes are excellent.
It is.
Both me and a friend I played with did so on linux. No extra fixes, just install and play.
Oh yes.
Sad to see.
It makes sense though. Xbox games don't have the bult-in configurability to run at lower settings and resolutions. So to run all the Xbox games, they'd all have needed an update to add a "handheld mode".
It's not like the backwards compatibility, where you are running previous games on more powerful hardware.
For a second there I missed the "j"

In the first game, whenever super earth was lost, humanity would just colonize a new planet, rename it super earth, and then the galactic war would start up again.
