ANo Man’s Skyplayer known as Neutrovertido on Reddit shared a video of their latest discovery, as they realized using their Personal Forcefield could move other players around. Activating the Personal Forcefield near another player and moving backward pulls the character if it is idle, allowing the Personal Forcefield’s user to drag it around. In the video, Neutrovertido simply moves a character from one place to another, but this feature could be used to lead other players to their death by moving them toward the edge of a platform, givingNo Man’s Skyplayers new ways to kill their friends.

In the comments to this Reddit post, most players were surprised to learn about this unexpected effect of the Personal Forcefield. While most of theNo Man’s Skycommunity already knew they could slowly push other players around, being able to pull them allows for more ways to interact with their friends, either to help them or try to kill them. Some players were more peaceful and thought this feature was a great way to move players staying idle in front ofNo Man’s SkyNPCto make more room for others.

No Man’s Skyplayers regularly share their in-game discoveries on social media, from amazing ship buildings to funny bugs they encounter during their journey across the galaxy. Creative players even bring real-life references to the survival game, with a player recentlybuilding a Domino’s Pizza location inNo Man’s Sky.

No Man’s Skyis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
