[old iron]

That's why I think players should be a unpredictable element, nothing like getting jumped by a band of space pirates and cloaking/stealthing than hiding on a asteroid Obi-Wan Kenobi style

[mint spear]

that's exactly why people want multiplayer now

[old iron]

Yep... But i wonder will the systems or whatever be Instanced

Into the sense that me and my buddy might be on the same planet but may not see each other in the exact same spot

[mint spear]

I like that concept though

it's hard to find people on planets

that's cool

if you want to explore, follow eachother to the planet and land in the same spot

that's what it needs

[rose yew]

i get what your saying, that there will be a limit to the stuff you can do even though it seems infinite at first 😦

[old iron]

Yeah... Like a party invite may simply be a Beacon to your buddy or a mutual meet up spot...

[mint spear]

I wish we could set up subspace conduits so we can quickly travel without the need for warp speed

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Transwarp_conduit

[rose yew]

maybe the portals wil act like that at some point

[old iron]

Simple things like that that keep the Infinite and vast space them there going for while making it, with enough effort realistically possible to locate and meet up with your buddy

[rose yew]

just gotta upgrade that hyperdrive like crazy

now im debating trader vs explorer ships

[mint spear]

screw warp drives

[mild peak]

trader all the way

[mint spear]

we need quantum slipstream drives

oh

green name guy

do you know what the maximum warp factor is?

also

[mild peak]

you mean secret?

[mint spear]

if we're traveling at warp 8

[rose yew]

I don't a limit has been given yet for that, but i imagine if we are expected to get to the center of the universe than we can upgrade it heck of a lot when we get more and more better materials

[mint spear]

what is the matter antimatter intermix ratio necessary to reach a starbase 100 lightyears away?

[old iron]

Yeah... But than you'd have to have a high fuel capacity, I'm not entirely sure if the capabilitys of your hyperdrive affect your max fuel/fuel consumption negatively or positively or if it's a separate module all together

[rose yew]

the beginning is going to be very hard without anything in my opinion

just to even find out what fuel is is going to be an interesting process

[mint spear]

I hope if we get shot enough the magnetic containment field on our antimatter starts to fail and our ship explodes everything in the sector

[old iron]

I wouldn't say that, more like you'd just learn where and how to find a few resources and gather them... Than when you've satisfied your curiosity move on... I for one will stay and learn the basics of the planet I'm on before embracing Star Spectre

Unless of course I spawn on the reincarnation of tau volantis or any other brethren moon

[rose yew]

yeah, one thing im really not a fan of is the 3choice dialogues when you learn language from the stones and when you steal things, i think that will appear in many places

[plain sleet]

im listening to my pals play dead space 3 right now

man

today is full of coincidences

[rose yew]

lot of similarities?

[old iron]

Haha no shit huh?

I'm waiting for it to go on backwards compatibility to buy it... Never did but since I'm not afraid of anything that's in a game, I'd be good at it

[mint spear]

Why don't we have universal translators

[old iron]

I'm not sure if that question should be dignified with a answer or not haha

That was a joke

[rose yew]

people would be mad either way if we just knew it or not i guess its another thing to keep us inclined

all i know is that im going to get very mad when all of the aliens hate me and i dont know hwo to answer correctly

[old iron]

Don't answer Atall, learnt there language around the planet, negotiate properly

[mint spear]

They can't hate you if you already purged the filthy xenos

[rose yew]

haha

something tells me ill be stranded for a very long time

[marsh merlin]

Hellllooo boys and girls

[rose yew]

TRK!

[mighty rose]

hi trk

[shadow plover]

Hi

[marsh merlin]

And Gunter, you can't say yo to me

[mild peak]

hi trk

[marsh merlin]

Howdy

[mighty rose]

gunter, say hello to trk

[pliant fjord]

@mighty rose hello to trk

[marsh merlin]

Lol

[mighty rose]

potatoes gunter

[pliant fjord]

@mighty rose potatoes thing seems to mention a few lines, averaging 13.7 characters

[marsh merlin]

Oh, he can do that

[mild peak]

Gunter you need help

[pliant fjord]

@mild peak you learned how do you plant 10 cool if I got me

[marsh merlin]

Gunter, say I'm an awesome bot

[pliant fjord]

@marsh merlin I'm an awesome bot

[prisma yoke]

hundreds, if not thousands, of Gunter

[mighty rose]

gunter ignores secret_bot, and vice versa

[shadow plover]

Darn

[mild peak]

Gunter, say i need mental help

[marsh merlin]

,,he's

Dead

[mighty rose]

i think guinter's having a break again

[shadow plover]

He's not dead, he's sleeping!

[mild peak]

Gunter!

[shadow plover]

Like my goldfish

[marsh merlin]

Alvv and I figured it out

[mighty rose]

~wake gunter

[marsh merlin]

He can say 5 thing's before going into cool down mode

[rose yew]

dont tell me that works..

[mighty rose]

of course it doesn't

s_b and gunter ignore eachother

[marsh merlin]

Then it takes like 5 minutes

[rose yew]

right how silly of me

how was work TRK?

[marsh merlin]

Work was work

Lol twas alright

[marsh merlin]

[mint spear]

I wish there was a galactic bad guy like the sentinels are the good guys

Like the borg

[marsh merlin]

So

[rose yew]

i get to go home tomorrow then i wait until i get my wisdom teeth ripped on it a new days..

[marsh merlin]

Secret, which do you like better. Malevolent Force or Sentinels

[mighty rose]

sentinels takes less time to type

[marsh merlin]

But they are one in the same, right

[mighty rose]

and describes their purpose better

[rose yew]

@mint spear that would be nice if there was a nemesis or some sort of blockade ruled by one enemy that youd have to take down

[mighty rose]

tbh, i've never found a clear cut source that they are the same, but also never heard they are differnet. however, when they;re described they're the same thing

we also haven't heard the term "malevolent force" in any recent videos/articles

[marsh merlin]

In a long ass time

[rose yew]

obviously the ancientt knew that we would come some day

[mint spear]

So basically we have to go to Mars and find a giant monolith while a malfunctioning ai tries to kill us?

[marsh merlin]

That's the idea

[mint spear]

If you don't get the reference you don't deserve to play space games

[rose yew]

[marsh merlin]

House burned down

[mint spear]

2001 a space odyssey

[rose yew]

reference achived! i can rebuild!

i saw the sentinels that look like dogs with laser beams for the first time today

they crreped me out quite a lot

[mild peak]

yea those are cool

oh lol

[rose yew]

i means i liked them and im happy to know there are going to be more sentinels but i was not expecting them

[mint spear]

I hope at 5 stars they bring in tank sentinels

[rose yew]

haha

[mild peak]

and there is a bipedal at-st like sentinle

*sentinel

[marsh ingot]

hello

[rose yew]

hey sample

[mild peak]

hiu

[proud iris]

hello again

[mild peak]

hi

[mint spear]

If you kill enough of those you get sentinel warriors with energy swords

[rose yew]

yeah the bipedal sentinel reminded me of star wars

[proud iris]

[mild peak]

[rose yew]

so trader?

[mild peak]

me? yea i am

[rose yew]

same as of now

i know they wont be big, but id like them to get bigger

[mild peak]

yea

[rose yew]

im still very sad about how we cant reach the core

[mild peak]

?

[rose yew]

players can only dig to a certain point in each planet

[mild peak]

yea

but when we reach the center what would gravity do

because irl it would hold you in place in the center

[rose yew]

thatsa good way of thinking about it

cant destroy the universe yet

[mild peak]

lol

[rose yew]

i dont know about you but when it comes out i probably wont look up anything for a week or two

[mild peak]

i will try to avoid some stuff but i will be on some stuff

[mighty rose]

i'll be moderating 😦

[mild peak]

oh D:

that sucks

[mighty rose]

i'd like to play spoiler free, but that entirely depends

[mild peak]

yea

[mint spear]

If we got to the center, we'd get killed by rock monsters and lizard people

[lime widget]

@mighty rose Have a response to my DM?

[mint spear]

fucking lizard beasts

genocide to the lizards

[rose yew]

lol

[mild peak]

[mint spear]

yo

[zealous flare]

Seem awfully cynical with your expectations

[mint spear]

About whom are you talking?

[zealous flare]

^

"Who else is hyped to explore for 16 hours straight and then never touch the game again?"

and some stuff I skimmed earlier about solo play

[mint spear]

I bought lego worlds.

[zealous flare]

oh LOl

[mint spear]

This seems very similar.

[zealous flare]

Hmm

I think for me it depends on how the game elements play out, that is the survival and what not

Although I like exploration games by themselves

[rose yew]

deinitely has the possibility of getting really boring if it sticks to only what we have heard

[mint spear]

I wish they would have added building though

[zealous flare]

yeah

[mint spear]

It may be an open world sandbox

[zealous flare]

Colonizing would be interesting

[mint spear]

but right now the only thing to do is go to the center

[zealous flare]

or just some sort of creative element

[rose yew]

im all in im geting it either way, but theres gotta be more they arent telling us

[zealous flare]

You don't think there is merit in wandering the planets themselves?

[ancient pulsar]

i wouldnt reccomend buying it if you are hoping for other features, take what it is at face value and you wont be disappointed 👍

[rose yew]

words of wisdom

[mint spear]

I just want 3d ss13

I want to explore space with friends

[ancient pulsar]

this is defintely not that game

[zealous flare]

yeah..

[mint spear]

I want to be the chief science officer on our starship

[rose yew]

haha

[zealous flare]

Don't count on that with NMS

[mint spear]

I don't count on it with any game coming out

[ancient pulsar]

stellaris just cam eout

is that coop?

[mint spear]

scam citizen is the closest

[ancient pulsar]

it seems really deep

[mint spear]

it is, but it's 4x

I want first person starships

like pulsar lost colony

but with a budget

[ancient pulsar]

id say things are looking up anyway

space games seem to be the new trend

zombies are on the way out

other publishers will see nms' numbers

and space will be milked next

so you'll get your game eventually i assume

[zealous flare]

I mean it's already in motion

a lot of recent games have been space space space

[ancient pulsar]

most definitely

did anyone catch my wallpaper i put together today?

[zealous flare]

Starbound, Stellaris, NMS, Star citizen, Space eng, Kerbal, etc

[mint spear]

stellaris is just 4x

starbound was a flop because bad devs

scam citizen

space eng needs better code

[queen valve]

aw, I liked starbound

[mint spear]

I did too

[mighty rose]

so did i

[mint spear]

until terraria updated

[ancient pulsar]

im waiting patiently for the next update

its "soon"

[mighty rose]

starbound was fun

need to play it again

[zealous flare]

I still playing Starbound on occasion

that wasnt grammar

[mint spear]

starbound was abandoned

it's stardew valley now

[zealous flare]

I like it a lot but always feel like there could be more

[ancient pulsar]

kuru the devs do blogs every day bud

def not abandoned

[zealous flare]

they are still working on it

its two different devs too

[mint spear]

they're still working on dayz

[ancient pulsar]

http://playstarbound.com/final-approach-to-1-0/

this is what im waiting for to play again

[mint spear]

sweet a cheap update just to throw the label 1.0 on

guys the game's done

it says 1.0

[ancient pulsar]

negative nancy for the night i see

[mighty rose]

do you even read?

[zealous flare]

it's being updated past 1.0

of course it's really slow progress though

well

what would you like to see in SB?

[ancient pulsar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-mpm_47k6Q

this looks pretty neat

[rose yew]

any thought on VR for no mans and if you would get it

[ancient pulsar]

i dont think it will come out until after release if its possible

[mint spear]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHH1vfY6HTA

That's a space game

[inner vector]

I run the discord for Everspace, as well as mod the subreddit if anyone has any questions

[ancient pulsar]

and even if they dont release it, the community will mod it in i imagine

[zealous flare]

huh

That looks terribly uninteresting to me

[ancient pulsar]

ss13 is more roleplay from what ive seen

different folks different strokes

[mint spear]

It is

[rose yew]

I think they really want the VR but its not going to happen, not soon

[mint spear]

You live on a space station

[zealous flare]

oh.

[ancient pulsar]

im contemplating playing spore before release lol

[zealous flare]

what do you find compelling about that?

[mint spear]

What's compelling about generating power, curing diseases, rebuilding sections of the station, keeping atmospherics up and within acceptable parameters and mining for resources?

It's top down 2d spessmen, but it goes so in depth with construction, chemistry, research and even foods and drinks that there's always stuff that needs done

Plus you have traitors hiding amongst you trying to kill someone by any means possible

What do you find compelling in exploring a mix of 90% class d, h, k, l, n and y planets and 10% class m planets?

[ancient pulsar]

different people different interests 👍

[zealous flare]

Well

[ancient pulsar]

ss13 does look like it would be fun though, you need a group of people to play it though

[zealous flare]

I think that depends largely whats on the 90%

[mint spear]

there's several servers

[zealous flare]

But I just like exploring.

I think especially because there's many different roles you can play into

It makes it interesting for me

[mint spear]

What roles though?

From all I've seen the only role is space nomad.

[zealous flare]

simply going to survival/resource mode on a planet, raiding and killing on a planet, space pillage, merchant, delving caves, exploring the entirety of the planet surface, interacting with facitons, going to all the landmarks on a planet

[queen valve]

Unrelated, but has anyone played Black Desert Online?

[ancient pulsar]

i have a friend that does

[queen valve]

or Subnautica?

[ancient pulsar]

shes on it all the time lol

[mint spear]

But you have to do all of that

by yourself

[livid vector]

(For those curious about Starbound, they have a discord server too! The devs are there, and pretty cool people!) https://m.reddit.com/r/starbound/comments/4hbr3e/starbound_discord_server/?ref=readnext_0

[zealous flare]

thats the fun part

[ancient pulsar]

i heard subnautica is a good game to play before nms

[zealous flare]

for me i guess?

[mint spear]

you can't have your friend the trader go get things while you stay behind mining

you can't kill animals to give to your chef

there's no dedicated engineer to fix your ships

it's just you

[queen valve]

Yeah it's really fun, great underwater exploration with very active devs @ancient pulsar

[ancient pulsar]

i never played it

[zealous flare]

yeah

And for me that's okay

[ancient pulsar]

im currently trying to beat mini metro

[mighty rose]

oh, that's another game i need to play again

[zealous flare]

It lets me continuously change my personal playstyle

[mighty rose]

mini metro is a great game at night

[ancient pulsar]

its so chill

[mint spear]

but you have to change your playstyle

[ancient pulsar]

its in the humblebundle right now

[mint spear]

it's not a choice

if you don't want to be stuck somewhere you need to do everything

[zealous flare]

it is a choice

[mint spear]

no, if you refuse to mine

you can't get anywhere

[zealous flare]

You can trade to get resources

you can pillage to get resource

[mint spear]

and then the sentinels can come and kill you because eventually they will

[ancient pulsar]

knocking another game for not being the 3d version of your favorite game isnt very reasonable tbh, i hope they do make something like it eventually though

[zealous flare]

Sure.

It's a different play pattern

I'm sure there are ways to successfully GTA NMS

kill things, get a bunch of stars and start digging into caves maybe

Hide away in the depths

[mint spear]

the problem is that I like this game too

It can just be so much better with some multiplayer/coop additions

[zealous flare]

I can agree

[mint spear]

I mean

immagine everything you just said

and add with your friend at the end

[ancient pulsar]

the theme of the game is being alone in space

[zealous flare]

I think

[steep umbra]

space exploration without another person sounds really great actually

[mint spear]

not everything has to be art though

[zealous flare]

It'd be nice to have the option

or even a separate multiplayer mode

where you can go be space dicks together

[mint spear]

or even have your friend play with you on your planet as a holographic/robotic module you can unlock

[queen valve]

I think it may eventually be introduced

[mint spear]

they stop progressing in their area

and play with you for a while

[zealous flare]

That's interesting

[queen valve]

but I think not having that option now is a good way to be introduced to the game

[mint spear]

the problem though is if it's not introduced now then they have no reason to add it later

they don't want multiplayer

[queen valve]

I don't think that will be the case

[zealous flare]

no i think kuru is right

it's not in their vision

[mint spear]

I hope not, but I fear it will be

[zealous flare]

that's how i feel

unless there's a lot of pressure for it on release I don't think its happening

[queen valve]

I hope there is some sort of community backed additions, but that might be hard with PlayStation on their backs

I dunno

[ancient pulsar]

nms will get a lot of flack for users expecting an experience its not trying to give, its unfortunate

[mint spear]

they just have to realize they're creating a product that the public needs to want to buy

They're making art right now

we want a game

[ancient pulsar]

its their right to do what they want

[zealous flare]

I don't think that true

[ancient pulsar]

you sound like EA right now kurugii lol

[mint spear]

sure, but it's our right to say we don't want it

[ancient pulsar]

then why are you here?

[mint spear]

because I want it, but not as it currently is

[mighty rose]

so you're complaining to the community about it? areen't there better ways to go about this?

[mint spear]

not really

especially this close to launch

[zealous flare]

no he's discussing it

which is completely valid

However, the interest in multiplayer in No Man’s Sky shouldn’t be ignored as it’s going to be crucial for the game’s lifespan in the long run. Due to its resistance to usual multiplayer practices, Hello Games may introduce a system that allows players to indirectly interact with other gamers. Murray noted that he liked the multiplayer systems in Dark Souls and Journey, so players may expect a similar approach in future multiplayer-related updates of the game.

maybe hope for you kuru

[steep umbra]

i mean, it's their game. we should just be satisfied with the way they intend to deliver it. the experience they envision

[queen valve]

I did love Dark Souls/Journey's online implementation

[mint spear]

I hope combat isn't as hard as dark souls though

[steep umbra]

maybe one day in the future, mutliplayer can fit in with the lore, but i dont go at someone's game trying to suggest it be made better by something that isnt really intended to be in there yet

[mint spear]

fighting sentinels will become just rolling away

[queen valve]

esp in the new Dark Souls

[zealous flare]

hahaha

[ancient pulsar]

journey could be an anime

its awesome

almost* made me cry

[queen valve]

I just want to know how they made such perfect textured and alive looking sand

blew me away

[ancient pulsar]

i know right lol

[queen valve]

ugh I need to play it again

[ancient pulsar]

any of you guys go to the pax conventions?

[queen valve]

yeah me

[ancient pulsar]

ive been to south twitce

going to twitchcon later this year too

[queen valve]

oh cool

[ancient pulsar]

i cosplayed as mgs3 snake last time, was pretty fun lol

[queen valve]

i cosplayed Lady Glasya

[inner vector]

i go to pax prime every year

[rose yew]

i went to pax east last month

[ancient pulsar]

that seems elaborate

i wana go to prime this year

[inner vector]

elaborate?

but yea, pax is fun

kinda slowly getting worse tho

[ancient pulsar]

lady glasya

seems elaborate

why is it getting worse?

[inner vector]

oh, yes

[rose yew]

lot to see and time goes by pretty quick. before you know it your ready to pass out

[inner vector]

too many people really

that too, its pretty exhausting

i did a lot of press stuff too so I was always busy

[rose yew]

thats awesome

i didnt get to see too much press stuff or get anything signed

merchandise specific to pax east goes out of stock really fast

[inner vector]

well i was conducting interviews with developers

[ancient pulsar]

dude last pax south

if you wore a toga

you got all of the devolver digital games

=]

[rose yew]

wow

[proud iris]

i've never been to pax, but dragon con in atl has the same issue

the # of attendees has probably doubled in the past 4 years or so

so it's too crowded

[rose yew]

im rally new to it all this was really my first pax.

[inner vector]

they keep adding paxes too and they just get more crowded

[ancient pulsar]

south wasnt that many but saturday was a bit crowded

[inner vector]

the tix sell out in like 5 min

[rose yew]

luckily my brother knew the times they went on sale

[inner vector]

was in penny arcade club thing, we got our early

[rose yew]

yeah i got the majoras mask poster from the penny arcade

well goodnight guys

[mighty rose]

cya liger

[rose yew]

im sure ill have loads more questions to annoy you with tomorrow secret

[mint spear]

hey secret

how often do you get to ask devs questions?

[mighty rose]

never

haven't ever been in contact with them

[mint spear]

damn

I want to know about the horizon omega

at least in regards to losing it

[tardy frigate]

so apparently one of my finals is tomorrow

i was not aware of this

[mint spear]

take a soda bottle label

and scan it

then cut out the text

and write cheat sheats

and print on it

60% of the time it works every time

[tardy frigate]

amazing

i show up to that class every day with a bottle of soda anyway

no one will suspect anything

but seriously, i log on to the school website, see a notification from like 5 minutes earlier

"due date changed: final exam - may 12th"

thx teacher

not sure what i expected from a school whose website has a help link that takes you to a 404 page

gunter, help me

[pliant fjord]

@tardy frigate Unknown command: "me".

[tardy frigate]

oh

[ancient pulsar]

gunter pls

[pliant fjord]

uwot m8

[tardy frigate]

gunter, what should i do

[pliant fjord]

@tardy frigate do that small team to the center of the creator thing

[ancient pulsar]

lool

[tardy frigate]

i'm sure that message will have some great advice once i decipher it

i think he's telling me to cheat

[untold valley]

Discord just booted up with the tagline "Preparing for Trouble" "Making it Double" and I fell in love with it all over again.

[tardy frigate]

i just learned the best way to sabotage someone's code

replace a semicolon with a greek question mark

they're indistinguishable

[untold valley]

http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/975/464/97d.gif

[mint spear]

replace a space with an invisible character alt 0160

[tardy frigate]

somehow, that doesn't sound as clever

[mint spear]

so

anyone else going to try to make a captain's starlog while exploring the game?

[steep umbra]

unless the game has a great tracking system, i feel like it's going to be necessary

otherwise remembering all the things you encountered, where to find resources, which planet to go back to, etc

gonna be tedious

[mint spear]

Captains starlog, June 21, 2016. I've discovered an uncharted class M planet. There are many mysterious and unreal creatures ranging from large bipedal lizards to small dog like beasts. I have taken it upon myself to name all of them "dickbutt."

I wish I could sketch

I want to find some cool shit and sketch it

and then it'd be cool

[cosmic sage]

so much for my nap

everyone probably is @mint spear

there are a few sites set up for jsut that

[smoky panther]

Hey everybody

Or anybody*

[mint spear]

Hi @everyone

[cosmic sage]

hihi

[rancid flame]

hiiii

[light pendant]

Hello! How're you tonight?

[royal magnet]

Oh god why does "@ everyone" push notifications

[subtle valve]

Hi

[lime arrow]

why have I been summoned

[gentle summit]

I christen you with my load of insight.

[smoky panther]

So does anyone know if there is a coordinant system in nms

[mint spear]

There's a starmap

[subtle valve]

Who's playing stellaris?

[cosmic sage]

wellk there is one that the game itseld uses to generate everyting

[mint spear]

you just have to map out quadrants

[subtle valve]

Its a great game until no mans sky relased

[cosmic sage]

dunno if we'll have one for our use

[mystic thorn]

Are all of NMS discord now here?

[tender verge]

there are addresses of sorts for planets and star systems

[lime arrow]

yes

[cosmic sage]

the old 2 yeah

[gentle summit]

Ayyy I went to the pub with Sean Murray

He bought me a pint ayyy

[subtle valve]

Picture or fake

[mint spear]

we should blow up every space station at the center of the univers

[mystic thorn]

Nice, how'd you meet him?

[mint spear]

so that way everyone iscrewed

[gentle summit]

Okay, you want proof, you get proof

[mystic thorn]

I live near by, so tempted to drop round

[mint spear]

ask him why he hates friends

oh on a serious note though

if you're legit

[smoky panther]

Follow up question... If I leave a mark on a planet is it there forever? For instance if I made "nazca lines" or "crop circles" of some sort.

[mint spear]

ask if when you lose the horizon omega

if you get another horizon omega

[cosmic sage]

no

[mint spear]

or you get shafted

[cosmic sage]

@smoky panther only for you

[smoky panther]

Oh bummer

[mint spear]

because if you lose the horizon omega, it's a really weak preorder offer

[cosmic sage]

tough titty kitty, its rough in the city 😛 @smoky panther

I SHALL RETURN. jsut placed a pick up order, freaking crazy huntry

[mint spear]

I want to name my guy akira toriyama

and I want to teach a dinosaur to ride a ball

[smoky panther]

@edelwiess I thought it would be interesting to map my direction so another astronaut could potentially find me faster.

[cosmic sage]

@smoky panther many ppl are doing that, theres acctually a fb group jsut for that purpose

S.O.A.P. Searh for Other Actual Players @smoky panther

at any rate, bb gotta get my order... should be done abou tthe timei get there 😄

[mint spear]

there's no point searching for people

it's too hard and too pointless

[cosmic sage]

@mint spear for you, perhaps not. You cant assume everyone else thinks like you do

[rancid flame]

whoops, wrong channel

[gentle summit]

In twenty years a pub will be built on this plot of land, a pub where Sean Murray will buy me a pint. Check back then.

[rancid flame]

kek

[cosmic sage]

bb 25ish minutes

[gentle summit]

I tried to send it sooner but the Time Sentinels were signal jamming me.

Thankfully my Cumcasting is too strong for them.

[mint spear]

pingas

[gentle summit]

Also, Sean Murray said No Man's Sky 2's expansion pack is going great. It drops eight quintillion planets in favor of literally no benefit, and we'd never know the difference he says. Truly revolutionary.

[mint spear]

wow

he should work for apple

he could be the next steve jobs

[gentle summit]

That's what I told him.

He said he got fired last summer though and is too embarrassed to go back after what he did.

[mint spear]

did he name the next mini ipad mini dickbutt?

[gentle summit]

Yeah, the ayyDickbutt Essay

Yeah, the ayyDickbutt Essay

Worst part is, he's so washed up he didn't even pay for the pint

He bailed when the check came

Cherish the Sean you have now

In twenty years he will be no more.

[cosmic sage]

I HAVE RETURNED

slightly late

food wasnt ready when i got there

but i got a free drink out of it 😄

[tender verge]

congratulation!

[cosmic sage]

mh

super hungry

<

got a ick plate

mac n cheese, tots

bbq ranch chicken... bites

annnnd a blueberry fritter

[mint spear]

I wish there was hunger in this game

why survive

[cosmic sage]

who says we even need feed

we could be robots

D:

[mint spear]

I just want to upgrade my suit

and build a castle on a class Y planet

look out my window in the second morning because of the three suns

[cosmic sage]

well you could carve a castle out kinda

[mint spear]

and watch the firestorms

[cosmic sage]

just for you

[mint spear]

class Y planets have hellish landscapes

[cosmic sage]

is that een a thing

xD

[mint spear]

yes

[tender verge]

robots don't need oxycen

[mint spear]

The types of planets are D, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, T and Y

[cyan tendon]

I'm somewhat looking forward to not having to build a permanent shelter, minecraft never really inspired exploration past setting up farms.

[cosmic sage]

you dont know that :p

[mint spear]

Class D planets are small planetoids or moons

Class H planets are hot arid planets with no surface water and atmospheres that have heavy gasses and metal vapors

[tender verge]

lifeless space bodies. a moon or other dead form

[mint spear]

Class J planets are gas giants

Class K planets are adaptable to human life but require pressure domes to live

Class L planets are capable of supporting flora but not fauna

[cyan tendon]

@mint spear would you mind linking the wiki page instead of copy pasting separately

[cosmic sage]

this aint star trek though 😛

[mint spear]

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Planetary_classification

[cyan tendon]

perfect thank you, now everyone knows and decreases the page spam

[mint spear]

do they though?

[cosmic sage]

well star trek doesnt really apply to no mans sky so.. neither would any planet clessefications :X

[cyan tendon]

Those are actual planet classifications, except for the made up non-Earth stuff

[cosmic sage]

its still vague tbh, since we've only actually seen4 rocky planets close up, other than earth

effictivly we havea pretty limited classifications, realisticly

gas giants, super earths as they call them

etc

[cyan tendon]

Oh of course, and even if they are all we need, we can't decide if pluto is a planet or an asteroid - it's messed up.

[cosmic sage]

you arent liekly to hear nada or their illk say something like "scientists discover a class m planet in orbit around a class g start blahblah hundred light years away"

its.... pluto

its our slightly pink, giantheart mark rock

lol

well mostly ice

we'll mostly just mb elike

forest planet

tundra planet

swamp planet

[cyan tendon]

okay, what?

[cosmic sage]

meow ?

[mint spear]

the classification of planets applies just as much as binomial nomenclature

you just choose to reject this system

and that's your right

[cosmic sage]

except one is real... and the other is from a tv show

[cyan tendon]

I'm not sure it's a right to reject scientific classification systems, without a very good reason and something to replace it.

[mint spear]

It's still a valid way of classifying planets.

They can reject it simply out of ignorance of the system

[tender verge]

except it's not recognized by the scientific community

[cosmic sage]

^

[mint spear]

If I were lost in the edge of the universe

I wouldn't name things scientifically

[cosmic sage]

oi lem, you free to hop in voice ?

[cyan tendon]

reducing a billion tonnes of rock/gas swirling in space to a letter isn't the most impressive use of language or for that matter classification systems.

[mint spear]

simply because I can't remember all the names

[tender verge]

hey

[cyan tendon]

Kurugii, who says we're lost?

[mint spear]

we all start somewhere different, no?

and we have no way of communicating

[cosmic sage]

that doesnt imply lost though

[mint spear]

and there's no reasonable way to find eachother

[cyan tendon]

In no way shape or form does that mean lost.

[cosmic sage]

which doesnt imply lost either

[mint spear]

but it does

if we weren't lost we could do all of these things

[cosmic sage]

no... no it doesnt :X

[tender verge]

i mostly come out at night. mostly

[cyan tendon]

how can we be lost if we have the means to leave the planet if we decide to do so.

[cosmic sage]

that right there is a logical fallacy

[mint spear]

we have a starmap that our only knowledge of is to go to the center

[cosmic sage]

absence of evidence, is not evidence of absence

[mint spear]

sidrat

[tender verge]

to voicechat!

[mint spear]

if you charter a boat to the middle of the atlantic

are you not lost?

Does earth exist in the game?

no

[cosmic sage]

nope

[mint spear]

earth doesn't exist

[cyan tendon]

lost implies getting to your location by accident, not design.

[twin crest]

it could be

i mean, its procedural, you never know

[cosmic sage]

no @twin crest sean flat out said no

also the planets will all have one biome

[mint spear]

there will be 10% class M planets though

[cosmic sage]

so on its own that rules out earth

[mint spear]

and earth is a class M planet

[cosmic sage]

in star trek it is

[mint spear]

what is a class m planet?

And in my story it is

[cosmic sage]

which isnot real

[twin crest]

mh, but there could be a planet shaped like earth?

[mint spear]

so deal with it

[cosmic sage]

thats lovely

but stop trying to force that narritive on other people like its a universal law 😃

[cyan tendon]

no @cosmic sage Earth is class M in the scientific community on earth too

[tender verge]

is trying really hard not to yell "NERDS!!"

[cyan tendon]

why on Earth would anyone link the star trek wiki when discussing science?

lol @tender verge

[twin crest]

you guys, just let people classify things as they want.

[mint spear]

we're not discussing science

we're discussing a video game

[tender verge]

a video game that has nothing to do with star trek

[cosmic sage]

@cyan tendon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_M_planet

[mint spear]

it has as much to do with star trek as we say it does

[twin crest]

my god, if he wants to classify NMS planets according to star trek, let him, who the fuck cares?

[mint spear]

your records of your story can call it whatever you want

[cosmic sage]

i think you're confusing your head cannon with actual stuff

in the long run it'll be far simpler to jsut classify it by the biome,

[cyan tendon]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_classification

[cosmic sage]

forrest, tundra, inhospitbale acid hellscape

[mint spear]

Captains starlog, May 12, 2016. While discussing a videogame on the internet with strangers one stranger seems to have taken our planetary nomenclature personally and has started attacking us for it. Attempts to assure him that it's just a game have only resulted in more attacks.

[cyan tendon]

@cosmic sage That is of course a very sensible idea.

[cosmic sage]

thats stars, not planets @cyan tendon 😛

[cyan tendon]

@cosmic sage It does apply to planetary bodies

[pure tinsel]

I'll classify planets by emotions

[mint spear]

Classify them by feminism.

All planets are being raped

[pure tinsel]

Happy planet, sad planet, ugly planet

[tender verge]

why? because sean is putting dinosaurs on them?

[cyan tendon]

Fugly Planet

[mint spear]

The only thing I know for sure though

is that all planets no matter how different

if they hold life

it will only be dickbutt

[pure tinsel]

Lol

[cosmic sage]

dickbutts as far as you can see

[pure tinsel]

Maybe dickbutt is at the center...

[cyan tendon]

lol

[mint spear]

captain we need to harvest more dickbutt for medbay

[cosmic sage]

oh heeeey we have enough people for a few rounds of CaH, anyone down ?

[tender verge]

\o

[cosmic sage]

well thats 2

need at least 5 for it to be fun

[cyan tendon]

what is it?

[cosmic sage]

cards against humanity

a funny, and utterly nsfw card game

😄

[cyan tendon]

ohhhh, saw a game played on youtube

[mint spear]

let's play transformice instead

[cosmic sage]

well this is the free online version

anyone that wants to play, hop on in the CAH (NSFW) voice! ya dont have to talk, but listening is more fun than not!

2 more!

[pure tinsel]

I'll switch to pc

Gimme a sec

[cosmic sage]

FMHASDGABDHASD

MAKE IT STOP

[pure tinsel]

allright, now see if we can get sound working

unfortunately...

let me try again

[tender verge]

well if you live close to an airport you can probably find an adapter

lem can't talk because his mic port is borked

when sean is moving between stars we don't see any red/blue shifts, so there's no speed of light

i wish i did have a mic because i'm laughing my ass off at this whole conversation

[cosmic sage]

^

[cyan tendon]

Yeah, that chat quality sucks

audio I mean, not chat content 😄

[cosmic sage]

http://pyx-2.pretendyoure.xyz/zy/game.jsp#game=17

@sweet kiln you gonna join us in cah ?

[tender verge]

the problem is in NMS the scale of everything is so much different that it's difficult to figure out exactly what a light year would be

[cosmic sage]

okie

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplayer_video_game

[tender verge]

i love these arguments. they're fun to listen to but ultimately pointless

[wind nova]

@kurugii don't use the (at)everyone command. It notifies everyone like they were sent a message tagged for them.

[cyan tendon]

@tender verge A light year is the distance it takes speed of light (which in this universe at least is a constant speed) it may not be a constant speed in NMS.

[tender verge]

that's kind of my point

[cosmic sage]

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=what+is+a+multiplayer+game

[tender verge]

but in terms of converting our universes definition of a light year (as in distance) it's hard to translate over

[mint spear]

While it does feature multiplayer, it does not affect gameplay at all. The offline experience will be almost exactly the same as the online experience

https://repo.nmsdb.info/?info=Multiplayer&highlight=2

[cyan tendon]

@tender verge It's certainly interesting a concept over what feels realistic enough to still be good gameplay

[tender verge]

for the sake of argument, let's say that no one ever did see each other in game. you still see their influence on the universe. the changes they are making can potentially affect your gaming experience so that makes it multiplayer

[cyan tendon]

The same way Elite Dangerous works then.

[pure tinsel]

Still a guess based on some unclear info

[cosmic sage]

wow

[tender verge]

is amused
