Nowadays, gamers receive various bonuses for pre-ordering a game, making it attractive to pre-order a game like No Man’s Sky.
In the case of the space online game, this is a special spaceship that already has a hyperdrive built in. This is usually something one has to assemble themselves, which takes some time until all necessary components are gathered. So whoever owns the pre-order ship can fly straight to other star systems.
No hyperdrive, no travel through space
This, however, brings a big problem with it. Because being able to build a hyperdrive is important for the game. If this quest is not completed at the beginning of the game and one does not know how to build a hyperdrive, they can later get stuck in the game with another ship without the drive, as they then cannot leave the solar system. Many players, including on Reddit, report that they have this issue and are stuck in the game.
One can find the blueprints for the hyperdrive later or buy a ship that has a pre-installed hyperdrive, but whether they will find them in exactly the solar system where they are stranded is likely a matter of luck.
If you want to travel through the universe of No Man’s Sky with the pre-order spaceship, then complete the quest beforehand that teaches you how to build a hyperdrive. Because the blueprint will be useful later, and you will avoid getting stranded in a star system.
