Fair enough. I will say getting that area taken care of was such a relief once I got everything I could from it.
Ah, yeah, haha I did that too. The eye signal locator is making me scratch my head. I got it, but I can't remember 100% where. Have you boarded the station orbiting Giant's Deep? When I get back to my xbox, I'll load up the game, check my logs, and see if I can't puzzle it out if you've fully explored the station.
There shouldn't be any gaps in the crystals if you're early enough in the loop. The only issue then is a ghost energy field that crosses one part of the crystal path, and then there's a convenient outcrop on the opposite wall that you can use to jump past the ghost energy.
Trying to see if anyone else ran into the same thing I did on Giant's Deep. Anyone?
If this is a bug, then as a software developer, I'd love to pick the studio's brain to try to figure out how this might be able to happen!
As I approached the 20-minute mark, the walls literally started closing in around me??
It was on the island where they were constructing the probe launcher. I was exploring the various text runes, and the geometry of the level kept getting more and more cramped until I clipped through the wall and was forced outside. And then something fell on my head and crushed me, before the sun exploded.

Spoo Ymgve makes a good point. And if time is an issue, do you know about the faster route inside?
If you land right next to the Tower of Quantum knowledge (it's a circular building you can find fairly easily from orbit), it has a staircase that goes right down to the city, right next to where you need to start your journey with that first jetpack jump. This will save you quite a bit of time.
Are you certain they were closing in? The islands on that planet have an interesting property that may confuse people who experience it the first time without knowing what's going on
Absolutely. It wasn’t the tornado launching things. Unless you mean something else?
First heard about this game after watching Giant Bomb’s quick look last night, and it was an instant purchase. (I barely buy 2-3 games a year now)
Played it until about 7am this morning haha.

I was scared shitless the first time I fell off the planet towards the black hole.
Funny enough, the thing that caused me the biggest scare is something I'm not sure I remember hearing anyone mention. But, it was based on some randomness, and you could miss it.
Basically tying for 1st is something that happened really late in the game, but again, you'd have to have done exactly what I did.
And of course we all got scared by the

Oh god I remember the first time it happened to me. I landed on a random island. Was exploring. Then a sudden WOOOSH sound.
I lose my footing, I can't tell if the tides or dropping or coming in. Then I realize we are going UP. Shot up into the atmosphere. I see my ship on the other side of the island is also getting tossed up. I quickly try and jet over there and get in the ship just as its falling down again. Had to repair some damage but better than getting SPLATTED by gravity
Man this game creeps me out more than anything I've played. Something about flying through space deeply unsettles me.
It's incredible!

I stumbled on one of the other endings/deaths you can get. I broke...everything. Details and a laugh:
I was screwing around in the high energy lab with their little experiment. I shot out my probe and yanked out one of the energy cores (forgot which one). The "second" probe flew out of the white hole before the first could enter the black hole.
It broke all of space and time.
When that happened, the credits started to play, but instead of the normal song, it was some guy playing the theme on a kazoo. :D
