[wraith bough]

You can already cause them

[golden shale]

I'll give it 3 to 4 days give or take before this update hits.

[fathom gorge]

Dude, teach me

[golden shale]

Monday would be surprising, Tuesday being earliest at most seems realistic.

[tribal condor]

I hope solar isnt right and its not something like an ios port

[golden shale]

Just look for stormy planets and then go onto the water

[tame lava]

J

[wraith bough]

Water has physics now, and if your planet happens to have a worm titan, the shockwave it causes (if you're in the ocean when the worm shows up) will cause a wave so big it will eat your entire base

[fathom gorge]

I play this game since launch and never seen gas giants, waves, legendary fish

[golden shale]

Not sure why it'd be called solar since they'd use a 🌞 for that likely or a ☀️ emoji

[slender dune]

:O

[golden shale]

Gas giants were only added this year

You have to finish the main story, atlas path and some other stuff to get access to the systems they spawn in

[tame lava]

G

[misty pawn]

g

[tribal condor]

Ah I was just referencing a person, they speculated that this could be an ios port since that is apparently happening sooner or later and the first message one sees when setting up a new iphone is: Hello

[tame lava]

g

[golden shale]

There was an announcement that NMS was coming to iPad a while back buit it never went anywhere.

[stoic path]

So... as of last night I am the discoverer of the Succubus system in Euclid. I did not give it that name. The game gave that one randomly, which is pretty stinkin' cool. What are some good names of Succubi that I should name the planets after?

[golden shale]

Will say that I don't think this is WP3 but instead potentially an update focusing on MP features like gulds

Except spelled correctly

[tribal condor]

NMS: Arrivals would be sick

content wise? VM stuff maybe

[golden shale]

Arrivals or Wayfinder seem the most fitting

[tame lava]

I want to hear the trailer lady again 🙏

[golden shale]

VM?

Virtual Machines in NMS /s

[tulip oar]

virtual machine??

[upper thunder]

NMS: Tokyo drift

[misty pawn]

[golden shale]

Finally I can emulate windows xp and fill my nms in game pc with viruses, truly the peak of updates.

[tulip oar]

finally i can run AtlasOS

[wraith bough]

If you want to see insane waves the size of mountains i suggest moving to a water planet, they have waves this big now.

[golden shale]

I just wonder how switch 1 is gonna deal with these updates since they got a full on unique version of beacon

[tribal condor]

Arrivals of what though?

[upper thunder]

Maybe an update that let's us easily find that last goddamn underground fauna lmao

[fathom gorge]

Worm titan are those big worms that jumps around, right ?

[golden shale]

Arrivals of system ownership /s

[wraith bough]

Yep

[fathom gorge]

I thought they were cosmetic and useless

[tribal condor]

corvettes fitting with arrivals im not sure, void mother related content could fit too but not much else i can think of rn

[golden shale]

They are cosmetic but they affect water for whatever reason

[wraith bough]

They are, but anything with a hitbox now that touches water makes it move in some way, worms make it cause small tsunamis

[golden shale]

There were some interesting datamines in #nms-spoilers a while ago of things it could potentially be

[tribal condor]

also void mother is abyss is ocean --> waves?

even if it is vm related, no idea what that would mean for the content

[golden shale]

We've had abyss already, it was years ago and the only update (unless I've misremembered) to have "The" in its title

Wayfinder does seem a likely update name

[tribal condor]

yes

[golden shale]

Plus Wayfinder sounds update name ish

[tribal condor]

i didnt formulate it well, i was thinking the emoji could be a hint at the void mother in several ways

[golden shale]

Waveform, Discovery, Wayfinder

🕳️ would probably be void mother stuff

[tepid mortar]

I have finally made it after 3 hours of consistent warping

[golden shale]

I think 🕳️ was an emoji at one point though I may be misremembering.

[tepid mortar]

I went from the core all the way to the galactic fade

[upper thunder]

Imagine if it's boats.... like actual sailing ships

Fighting huge krakens

While the waves go nuts

NMS: Wavefarer

[wraith bough]

I pray for that to become a thing, although many people i have talked about the topic agree it doesn't make that much sense to have ships when we already have hovering exo craft and whatnot

Still, to me it's a complete MISS that we have the waves we have now but no exocraft to ENJOY the waves

Unless you count the nautilus

But that's a submarine, and we're talking about ships here

They don't feel the same way

[upper thunder]

Plus there's no underwater sentinels. Lore wise, why are they protecting the land environment and not the sea

[tulip oar]

nomad is pretty cool

i love nomad

[upper thunder]

I really want shark shaped sentinels. Imagine that red dot approaching you in the darkness

[tulip oar]

oooh

waterborne sentinels

there's an idea

[nova rose]

hell nah

as if land combat wasnt bad enough

[misty pawn]

we should have sentinels in the air too

[nova rose]

lmao

[thin cobalt]

Would a harmonic living ship be worth the trouble?

[slender dune]

༼ つ ༽つ

[nova rose]

anyone think space combat is too easy?

all u need is infraknife

[slender dune]

yea

[thin cobalt]

Go fight near a station

[nova rose]

i did

lol

[thin cobalt]

Lmao

[nova rose]

i also pissed off a buncha civilians

50 minute ship battle

[thin cobalt]

Fair

1v11 Is peak

[nova rose]

then i just ran cause it was too annoying

[golden shale]

New name ideas then

[nova rose]

neverending fleet of civilians

[thin cobalt]

It’s sentinels

[nova rose]

honestly idfk what it was i barely got any loot

😭

[thin cobalt]

Weird

[nova rose]

more like 1v50

i got like a buncha glass

but nothin else

[thin cobalt]

Huh

[nova rose]

the carrier didnt spawn

[golden shale]

Ok so far I have:

Signal, Signals, Relocation, Herald, Heralds, Exhibit, Exhibits, Exhibition, Broadcast, Wayfinder, Wayfarer, Arrival, Arrivals

[nova rose]

lmfao

[stiff terrace]

Why are you shooting civilians? They aren't going to have much. They just living their life

[nova rose]

idk

got bored

[golden shale]

In the pursuit of SFMs, sacrifices must be made.

[nova rose]

i also have way too much rep

[thin cobalt]

Yeah, you wanna fly away from the station

[nova rose]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

nice waste of 50 mins lmao

atlas bossfight in space when

i feel like that would be pretty cool

like if you destroy 100 carriers an atlas thingy comes and tries to nuke u

[stiff terrace]

Maybe it's like hello good morning and we're getting coffee

[fathom gorge]

That would be awesome

[upper thunder]

I like the name Wavefarer, it rolls off the tongue

[golden shale]

100 carriers would be excessive

Wayfarer sounds better

[fathom gorge]

Abyssal exploration would be nice too

[golden shale]

Ray Reynolds predicted vaporwave

[upper thunder]

How? If its waves

[strong steppe]

wavefront

[fathom gorge]

Bigger and rare creatures

Thunderstorms in deep seas

[golden shale]

Wavefarer sounds like a made up word and the updates usually are real words

[tribal condor]

you mean this?

[golden shale]

Unless wavefarer is a real world

[stiff terrace]

Maybe different forms of radiation like microwaves

[nova rose]

yo whats that

thats insane

[glacial cave]

Why is #no-mans-hype🐝 open? Any indications of update time?

Can't find any

[golden shale]

No Man's Sky Waving confirmed /s

[tulip oar]

sean emoji

[crisp wren]

Emoji dropped

[glacial cave]

Oh heck

[nova rose]

whats emoji mean

[golden shale]

An emoji dropped and its a 👋 which is interesting

[nova rose]

emoji = update?

[glacial cave]

I totally missed it

[golden shale]

We don't know exactly but its an update yes

[nova rose]

underwater update trust

wave

[golden shale]

Sincerely pray its update + expedition and not just expedition

[tribal condor]

we just had a water update...

[golden shale]

They probably will expand underwater again eventually but currently I don't want it

WP2 was pretty damn massive to the point nobody would have ever expected HG to split worlds into 2 updates

[tribal condor]

what this game really needs is an update to space, poi's or factions. There's a shot for a space related update here, maybe

[golden shale]

Sean at the beginning of the wp2 deep dive I believe said something like

"We're doing things people probably never expected"

[stiff terrace]

Yay we're getting poodles.

[tulip oar]

we're getting the spanish inquisition guys

[stone gazelle]

2000 or 3000u

[stiff terrace]

Dang it nobody expects the Spanish inquisition

[stone gazelle]

I don't do water hazard protection because I don't really do water a lot

But I don't think any life support will help me through 3000u of pressure

[fathom gorge]

Does past expeditions will come back eventually ?

I lost one because i was kinda dying irl

[stone gazelle]

Sometime probably

[tulip oar]

potentially

[keen kite]

OMG I've just seen that there is an emoji. I'm so excited

[golden shale]

5:38 in the No Man's Sky Worlds Part II Deep Dive video:

"and I think, we're probably doing things that the community never thought would happen."

the replayer sounds like a mod

[tulip oar]

it's better to ask your question in #nms-questions

[nova rose]

https://cwmonkey.github.io/nms-expeditions/

[golden shale]

Depends on what they are

[nova rose]

k

[golden shale]

2025 expeditions will come back around december ish in a redux update

[fathom gorge]

Good to know

[tribal condor]

Past expeditions might come back once the game is close to the end of its lifecycle, hence the introduction of the terminal

[golden shale]

but those are temporary so you cannot generally replay expeditions outside of modded means which is unfortunate and something I hope they consider changing in future in some way

The terminal was added in omega to overhaul expeditions making them flow better in terms of being able to bring your current character in but having seperate inventories and whatnot

[fathom gorge]

End of lifecycle ?

[golden shale]

EoL would be whenever the final content release for NMS is

[sudden canopy]

Perish The Thought

[fathom gorge]

Nah, game is endless

[stiff terrace]

Game is don't mean we are

[tribal condor]

perhaps but i think the underlying reason is being able to replay expeditions generally, specifically past ones later on

[sudden canopy]

Kinda strange the emoji was sent on Not-Wednesday, lol

[tame lava]

Im sooo happy we finally got an emoji

[stiff terrace]

There's some interesting names

[fathom gorge]

Where does he posts random emojis ?

[spiral pivot]

Twitter.com

[sudden canopy]

They're not random - but we did get a bacon emoji and the following content contained no actual bacon

[north fog]

Hi hi fi hi, how are you today hi fi hi?

[half wave]

Mostly on the x-twitter platform. He'd started also posting them on other platforms recently but not today

[golden shale]

Emojis were sent on fridays once

[golden shale]

I guessed the update would be called Beacons, I was one letter off.

[strong steppe]

yeah i haven't seen an emoji yet on bluesky 🤷‍♂️

[tame lava]

Im sooo sooooo happy, duuuuuudeeee

🥳 🎉

[golden shale]

Haha @half wave got told off by gunter point and laugh /s

[sudden canopy]

Possibly, but I'm still glad to see it

[golden shale]

Me if I win twice in a row and get a space station ownership / system ownership / multiplayer expansion update.

slash some further settlement tweaks

[spiral pivot]

If its purely an expedition he usually just posts it a day or two before. Monday-tuesday

[tame lava]

Looks like i will win 2 pacts in a row

[golden shale]

I don't want much for settlements now honestly

My primary request is a way to speed up building / upgrading and I'd like it to be done via the class of your office

[north fog]

Considering he dropped the emoji around 10pm uk time on a Saturday I genuinely think he might’ve just forgotten about the emoji until that moment

[stone gazelle]

This place is so active today wtf

[half wave]

the history of Sean emojis

[tame lava]

Emoji drop dude

[cedar egret]

Lowkey

[north fog]

It’s because we got emoji

[stone gazelle]

WHAT

WHATAFUCK

[candid sapphire]

EMOJI!!!!

[tribal condor]

I would have gone to sleep some time ago otherwise

[candid sapphire]

AAAAA

[tribal condor]

I wish I had actually

[half wave]

👋

[north fog]

Thats why im waving and fi is hi

[candid sapphire]

👋 👋 👋

[stone gazelle]

EMOJIIIIII

[upper thunder]

How long usually after emoji do we get the update

[stone gazelle]

👋 👋

[spiral pivot]

A few days. Wednesday

[stone gazelle]

A few days

[tame lava]

👋

[fathom gorge]

Wave

[tribal condor]

wednesday is the most popular drop day

[candid sapphire]

there are three theories

one of them sad

[tame lava]

Btw guys i made a pact that we will get an update on 27th like a couple of days ago

[golden shale]

In order:
? ? ? Origins ? ? Prisms Visions ? ? Outlaws ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Omega ? ? WP1 Aquarius The Cursed WP2 Relics Beacon and Unknown

[north fog]

It’s the No Man’s Hi(gh) update

[stiff terrace]

Are we sure Sean was not just saying hi

[golden shale]

One of these will have been Sentinel and Companions

[fathom gorge]

Yeah

[stiff terrace]

Yay making an official nipnip empire!

[north fog]

We’ll finally be able to get stoned on nipnip

[golden shale]

Sean does not post emojis without images unless its a teaser for another update

It's the sign language update, a race of your choice will appear and narrate the game using BSL / ASL for you

[nova rose]

[north fog]

It’s definitely an update, but I think he forgot he needed to post it

[candid sapphire]

that would be extremely cool

[upper thunder]

I'm so glad it wasn't 🖕 😂

[candid sapphire]

I have a feeling someone's exited

[golden shale]

If he ever posts that I think people will post one back

[tame lava]

omegao7

[golden shale]

What the fuck would a 🖕 update even be lmao

[tame lava]

Shrex update

[north fog]

That’s me

[candid sapphire]

The biggest update that is basicly no man's sky 2 but sean won't let us pay for it

[stiff terrace]

Beeg

[fathom gorge]

Explain

[candid sapphire]

water

[tame lava]

?

[fathom gorge]

How ?

Is this in game ? No mods ?

[tulip oar]

yes

deep oceans

[fathom gorge]

Ghost leviathan from subnautica ?

[tulip oar]

no

[tame lava]

LMAO HAHAHA

[north fog]

Squid

[fathom gorge]

Dude actually found subnautica world in no man sky

[nova rose]

thats a hot ship

[tame lava]

The whole planet is just dead zone

[stiff terrace]

I want a summon Cthulhu

[fathom gorge]

I never found deep waters too

[fathom gorge]

Full ocean ?

[tame lava]

Only in purple systems, around 1400u deep

[spiral pivot]

Purple systems my man

[tame lava]

Yup full ocean planets now exist

[fathom gorge]

What am i missing besides gas giants and full ocean planets with those purple stars ?

[slender dune]

no mans hype and no mans sky channels have been renamed

[spiral pivot]

New terrain

[tame lava]

Im inside the red circle

[stone gazelle]

My most recent colony is 2000-3000u underwater

What u on about

[waxen quartz]

I just fixed the drift💀

[tame lava]

Cap

[stone gazelle]

That's the biggest you could find

[tame lava]

Max depth is around 1400u

[stone gazelle]

Pft

[stone gazelle]

Well idk what you're talking about

[tame lava]

Dont have picture but i found one sooo stupidly big its eye was like 4 times bigger my character's size

[stone gazelle]

But I may have calculated wrong

[candid sapphire]

yes

Sean dropped emoji

[slender dune]

i was there

[fathom gorge]

So we do have abyssal exploration

[tame lava]

Yes

[candid sapphire]

could tell from your name

[fathom gorge]

God damn

[tame lava]

Its totall darkness in 500u+

[stone gazelle]

Also haiii peanut

[stone gazelle]

Sure

[candid sapphire]

anyways I am going to bed

gn

[tulip oar]

goodnight

[stiff terrace]

Art3mis was here when I woke up this morning... Also when I went to sleep last night. I'm not sure Art3mis sleeps

[tulip oar]

i did not get good sleep last night

[tribal condor]

That‘d be a shame, sleeping is the best, especially when you dream of NMS!

Its been long since I‘ve had a NMS related dream tbh but my last one was dope, even cooler than VR NMS

[dire frost]

Anyone got some Activated Quartzite or Crystallized Helium? 🥺
BEEN LOOKING FOR WEEKS !!!

[tulip oar]

ask around in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[slender dune]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[dire frost]

Olay thanks

Okay*

[stiff terrace]

Last night I had a dream that somehow combined nms and starfield. It was an interesting combo.

[dire frost]

Starfield is getting really good

[tribal condor]

Damn I‘m jealous, my 2 fav games currently

[dire frost]

Loved the graphics

[tribal condor]

Everyone thinks NMS is gonna be left behind once the new game comes out. Do yall really think there’re just going to up and leave NMS?😂 It may not be their main focus anymore but I promise you NMS will continue to get support.

[tulip oar]

indeed

[tribal condor]

Sean literally stated this in an interview iirc

I also wonder if light no fire will be on the switch upon release (and hopefully not just the switch 2)

[slender dune]

never played starfield before

should i check it out?

[tribal condor]

It’s def worth a play through or two without mods.

[tulip oar]

maybe in #other-games :v

[slender dune]

aight

[quasi atlas]

hand update finally 🙏

[tulip oar]

woahhh

[cunning iris]

Ohh... #no-mans-hype🐝 is back I see... 👀

[tulip oar]

that's so pretty

[narrow pecan]

How long usually between emoji and info?

[icy rivet]

Couple days maybe a week tops

[cunning iris]

About time, I was already getting concerned. 😅

[tribal condor]

Oh man that’s exciting

[icy rivet]

He does an emoji when it’s ready to go and no sooner.

[cunning iris]

I'll bet next wednesday

[tribal condor]

This will be my first so I’m vibrating in my seat, can’t wait to see what it is

[icy rivet]

My bet is on an expedition with some good qol updates.

[cunning iris]

Yep, could be a new expedition

I'd be ok with it, been a while

[stiff terrace]

Maybe some... Handy updates!?!

[icy rivet]

A handy dandy notebook??

[tribal condor]

Tbh I think id be plenty happy with a new expedition and qol updates over something ✨ new ✨

[spiral pivot]

I liked it.

[slender dune]

how do i get a crystalized heart

[stiff terrace]

Kill the purple sentinel dogs. Not the orange ones the ones with the crystals

[slender dune]

alr

[tender marten]

I hope waving doesn’t mean goodbye. 😿

[tulip oar]

no need to worry about that

[tulip oar]

you are the 3rd person i've heard ask that today

that is wild

Did Sean drop an emoji I noticed the hype channel is back

[tulip oar]

yes

[lilac hatch]

New emoji?

[static sinew]

yes

[desert sun]

Ok guys what do we think this one means

[lilac hatch]

Whats the emojo?

👋

[static sinew]

it's gunter

[lilac hatch]

Oh? A wave?

[desert sun]

Yup

[dire frost]

No that's a slap

[stiff terrace]

Maybe it's a greeting and we are getting new frames for Photomode, like postcards

[cedar egret]

That
be fun

[tulip oar]

what

[stiff terrace]

Think about it, we already do Photomode with the portal codes. Imagine doing postcards in Photomode. Could include the portal code and stuff. Would be epic

[tulip oar]

absolutely insane

[stiff terrace]

Dang now I need it

[stiff terrace]

Insane is practically my middle name

[dire frost]

Giggity

[cedar egret]

[keen orbit]

A wave hello…..or goodbye 😭

[spiral pivot]

I love this game so much,

My favorite space game.

I feel the same excitement I did in 2016, I cant believe we have a game like this, land on a planet and go into space etc

[stiff terrace]

I live finishing new fun things. Look at my new ship!

[spiral pivot]

Beautiful

[stiff terrace]

If anybody wants him I put the info in the ship hunting section. I have a save beacon and a communication station nearby it so it should be easier to find. Well I hope anyways.

[white bluff]

Oh my!

👋

[spiral pivot]

Been finding some different color schemes lately

[white bluff]

Well we already had an update called Omega ... and that wasn't the end, so...

[keen orbit]

Idk what omega means, but thanks, so…

[white bluff]

Last letter of the Greek alphabet, means the end, completion of something, a finality.

Alpha and Omega, beginning and end, etc.

[keen orbit]

Oh I see, I’m lurnding

[white bluff]

I am old and lurnded, I guess.

Old, anyway.

[keen orbit]

I’ve heard the terms but never curious to search the meaning, it’s all Greek to me anyway

So it’s definitely a greeting & not a farewell

[white bluff]

I was at a friend's Greek wedding and the service was in Greek and I turned to my wife and said "this is all Greek to me," and she heaved a sigh most heavy.

[gentle nacelle]

Is it okay to ask questions in this channel?

[keen orbit]

Questions seem like a help channel thing, but you have my ok

[gentle nacelle]

Im new, but I found a sentinel ship however it's only B class, should I just farm the capital ships until I get a A or higher one?

The capital ships are tough, but not too bad

[white bluff]

I feel 👋 is definitely not a farewell. I think more it means something like NMS: Friendship or .. I dunno, something that has to do with a waving hand.

[pallid cosmos]

Three hours ago, Sean posted the 👋. Anyone else thinking ocean update Wednesday?

It's literally a wave

[static sinew]

GUYS GUYS GUYS

[white bluff]

I've been playing for 9 years and never worried about class, really. You can always upgrade class for Nanites. If it's one you like the look and feel of, enjoy it and upgrade it later. I often don't bother upgrading ones I like that are sub-S, becuase I end up just not feeling the need. That's me.

[static sinew]

i have omsething important to say

[keen orbit]

My opinion, not big on farming to improve class, I’d just play the game & if a better ship happens to come up during my playthrough, awesome

[pallid cosmos]

Speak your truth

[white bluff]

We really just got ocean updates with Worlds I and II. I can't see how it would be an ocean update, but I hear you about "waves."

[keen orbit]

Cant upgrade capital ship class with nanites though

[gentle nacelle]

its kinda boxy looking so not huge on its design

[pallid cosmos]

I hear you, but they named the most recent update beacon, so, anything is possible

[white bluff]

Yea, for freighter you can't -- I thought he meant sentinel inteceptor, but he means sentinel freighter I guess.

[gentle nacelle]

So ill prob kill some more senintals until I find one with a more sleek design

[gentle nacelle]

not a he, but I do mean the small ships

[keen orbit]

There ya go, play it out

[crude plume]

do updates tend to break things? sorry i'm new to this game

[white bluff]

Sry

[keen orbit]

Generally no

[crude plume]

good thank you :))

[pallid cosmos]

At worst you may have some lighting or render issues, but they try to patch those fairly quickly

[white bluff]

stares off into the distance recalling the NEXT update and its impact... . . . .

[crude plume]

oh yeah that's fine as long as half my base isn't missing lol

[keen orbit]

Updates get vetted through experimental before public launch

[gentle nacelle]

well thankfully theres a planet with high sentinel actitivty here, so time to farm a ton of sodium and raise some hell

[eager flicker]

Hi, anyone tryna play with me?

[white bluff]

What's on the menu for this weekend re: QS?

[static sinew]

hi

[pallid cosmos]

LOL, I heard Next wasn't great. Luckily I'm on Xbox and wasn't impacted

[pallid cosmos]

Hello

[gentle nacelle]

are there more intense space battles beyond the capital ships?

[static sinew]

theres the truth

[static sinew]

no

sadly

[keen orbit]

Beyond was a reset as well

[gentle nacelle]

really? dang...i beat one with the basic ship just fine....

I was looking forward to big space battles eventually

[white bluff]

NEXT was a complete universe and procedural generation reset. Everything was wiped and changed. Distinct biomes we have today appeared there. Some say exploration was negatively impacted to the extreme (like me...).

[junior stratus]

Warring space factions update 🥺

[keen orbit]

Can up the difficulty & go perma max settings

[junior stratus]

ive said this for years and i will continue to ask for warring space factions update until it happens :)

[pallid cosmos]

I admire your dedication.

[white bluff]

Maybe the 👋 is a slap to the face, and that's what this next update will be...

[gentle nacelle]

how hard is it to farm units, so I can get a better tool

[waxen quartz]

Hi everyone, i just finished my greenhouse and i want to know what plants would you recommend to place here

[pallid cosmos]

By the time I did anything worth saving NEXT had already come out

[gentle nacelle]

the bio horror eggs seem to go for a ton, but dunno where to really find them

[stiff terrace]

Nip

[junior stratus]

sean personaly goes to everyone's houses and slaps them!

peak update

[waxen quartz]

[slender geyser]

Sounds like this new update is gonna be the emote wheel update, with micro-transactions for different moves and dances. 👋

[pallid cosmos]

I'm a fan of frost crystals, myself, but I am also an ice dragon so

[white bluff]

No Man's Sky: Jazz Hands update

[waxen quartz]

@stiff terrace i already got some problems with centinels, something legal pls

[pallid cosmos]

No man's sky: spirit fingers

[eager flicker]

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to spam, someone help me out with this discord ting

[keen orbit]

Cactus flesh & solanium have the longest gestation…

[stiff terrace]

Ummm.... Grow some shiny balls to throw at them

Or venom balls

[waxen quartz]

It looks like this

[keen orbit]

Oh yeah, the money makers, sacs, balls & pearls

[stiff terrace]

Yeah grow some balls!

Vernon balls

[waxen quartz]

But money isn't a problem

[pallid cosmos]

You're a traveler Harry

[waxen quartz]

I want something to accelerate building

[stiff terrace]

Dang auto correct

[lament onyx]

You can adopt up to 6 alien creatures
You sure, NMS?

[static sinew]

i have more

[pallid cosmos]

6 per set, 3 sets total. It's not enough

[stiff terrace]

Luckily more but still want more friends

[lament onyx]

Yeah they didn't update the text lol

[stiff terrace]

And I want to have them all put to play with each other or make weird hybrids

[keen orbit]

Do you plant outside in the biome? Looks great for Star bulbs there

[pallid cosmos]

WHAT IF HES NOT WAVING BUT PETTING????? HAS MY DREAM OF MORE AMINALS COME TRUE?

I will pay all my nanites for more pets

[stiff terrace]

Maybe we can pet the geks

[waxen quartz]

I guess, but i'm already in a paradise planet

[teal rapids]

👋

[stiff terrace]

I want to play fetch with my beardog

[keen orbit]

Idk what crops would help accelerate building 🤔

[stiff terrace]

Nip

Well at least give the illusion

[keen orbit]

Frost Crystal is good for glass

[waxen quartz]

Something that can help me get materials faster

[stiff terrace]

Nip can give patience

[waxen quartz]

No, bad, nip illegal

[stiff terrace]

But... Solves the problem

[waxen quartz]

I don't need money

[stiff terrace]

You need food?

[waxen quartz]

Nope

[pallid cosmos]

So what do you need?

[stiff terrace]

Then.... How plant make you get more resources of not to put in your food hole

[keen orbit]

Hmmm, materials…

[cosmic pewter]

Wave... sound waves, light waves

[pallid cosmos]

Neutron cannon?

[stiff terrace]

Microwave

[keen orbit]

🌊

[waxen quartz]

I already have 2 the starrer

[cosmic pewter]

water waves... ooh surfing 🏄‍♀️ 😆

[waxen quartz]

Materials

[pallid cosmos]

Probably solarium or cactus flesh, then

[keen orbit]

If bacon = beacon, what could wave be?

[stiff terrace]

Weave

[waxen quartz]

What does solarium gives?

[keen orbit]

oranges = origins as well

[pallid cosmos]

Some higher tier recipes need it, I think

[stiff terrace]

Shave?

Maybe finally have a beard

[waxen quartz]

Ok, i'll make 8 slots of solarium

[keen orbit]

Whale? Space whales? Living capital ships?!

[waxen quartz]

4 of cactus flesh and 4 of frost crystals

[stiff terrace]

Wave.... Wait. Maybe it's a teaser emote telling us to wait longer

[keen orbit]

I seem to be needing a lot of fungal mold

station missions be asking for acid

[pallid cosmos]

That doesn't feel right

[gleaming flame]

Enclave?

[stiff terrace]

Wave, grave... Brave...

[fossil cradle]

Can anyone come check out my sports stadium I built?

[stiff terrace]

With the settlements I've already been feeling like I'm in fallout so why not

[stiff terrace]

Just logged out but I can tomorrow

[stone gazelle]

They should add radiation to nms

[slender dune]

bro what am i missing

[stone gazelle]

Specialist terminals

Do overseer quests

[slender dune]

alr

[stone gazelle]

Also if you're late game

You'll be pissed

Because those quests give you free blueprints

[stiff terrace]

Look for planets with gamma weed. They are rad

[slender dune]

bruh

[pallid cosmos]

Thanks, dad

[slender dune]

i spent like 2000 salvaged data

[stone gazelle]

For all the shi you spent hours gathering salvage tech to unlock

[slender dune]

on blueprints

[stone gazelle]

Exactly

All the plants? Farmer.

Normal tech? Overseer

This goddamn game

[slender dune]

wait.... THAT EXISTS?!?

[stiff terrace]

Ooh which is that

[stone gazelle]

Technically

He doesn't do anything besides giving you blueprints

But like

[slender dune]

ah

[stone gazelle]

He's kinda useless ngl

[stiff terrace]

He's adorable and my friend

[slender dune]

do i need to do the scientist quest too?

[stone gazelle]

He's your adorable useless friend

[slender dune]

or just the builder one

[stone gazelle]

Just the builder

For what I'm aware of

[stiff terrace]

Well yeah we just both be useless together.

[slender dune]

aight

ty

[stiff terrace]

No reason not to. Kill time go see stuff. Oh and don't forget the exocraft guy

The weapons guy has repeatable quests

[waxen quartz]

Just finished the nautilus

How do i make it work?

I don't have the blueprint of the fuel to make it work

[stone gazelle]

Keep on the dreams of the deep quest

[waxen quartz]

Ok

[stone gazelle]

Once you get to the ||"find the crew"|| part you can drop the quest

[stiff terrace]

Got to love that quest

[stone gazelle]

You could do the rest of it to get a cute helmet but the rest of it is just dumb stuff

[waxen quartz]

Nah, i'll end it, it will take me just a bit

[stiff terrace]

Finding the crew doesn't take long.

[stone gazelle]

Basically you can drop the quest as soon as soon as you get base parts

[stone gazelle]

It doesn't

But it's boring af

Maybe it's because I only stopped to do this quest after getting purple systems

Or any quest

[stiff terrace]

Probably

Or you just weren't in the mood for more sea exploration. I got lucky and had some cool sea creatures to look at

[stone gazelle]

Yeah I don't really like shallow sea exploration

It's boring

I like extreme space tho

[stiff terrace]

True shallows aren't as fun. My first time through the quest was on an ocean planet so that was fun. Did the quest yesterday on my second character and it was on a regular planet.

[forest steppe]

did I miss an update? when on earth did we get the option for male/female suit voices?

[nova rose]

is there another game like nms, like the rpg element + open world

[sly shadow]

Idk elite dangerous maybe

[crisp wren]

Beacon added that

[stone gazelle]

A good while ago

[stone gazelle]

Elite dangerous is even more immersive

[forest steppe]

Ok follow up question I'll have to move to spoilers

[crisp wren]

I have the male one. It took some getting used to. It sounds pretty different

[slender dune]

bro i cant find a base armorer

[nova rose]

its p2w

[crisp gull]

Better chances at Vy’keen space stations, although you have a small chance at any non-pirate space stations in regular systems

[slender dune]

alr ty

[crisp gull]

Does it not mark a place for you to go? I can’t remember. I usually just look for those base people on my own until I find one I like the looks of😂

[slender dune]

it doesnt for some reason

[crisp gull]

Ahh, well some like the Overseer I think it sends you to a place. Although you never have to take the one it wants to give you. You can always refuse and keep hunting, it’s always your choice.
It just depends if you want to spend time looking more, or get it done and over with😂

[slender dune]

alr

[lime haven]

Hi guys! There are beautiful captures in #nms-photomode-gallery needing more love! They only make it to #the-louvre if they have enough heart emojis. Self & non hearts don't count.
-# more info

[crisp gull]

Overseer and farmer are always Gek
The scientist is always Korvax
And the armorer and exocraft technician are always Vy’Keen

[glad kettle]

Guys I have something that can be sold for 50M for one piece of it and I have 300

Holy shit

That’s fucked up

[crisp wren]

Were you in the Anomaly? Someone probably gave it to you.

[crisp gull]

Yeah, that happens. You don’t have to use them, if you don’t want to

[glad kettle]

Yes he gave me one and I brought the others

[glad kettle]

Use what in the richest man in the game

[crisp wren]

It can kinda ruin early game, IMO

[crisp gull]

Some people don’t like getting things that mess with the balance of the game
But you do you
I got one of those devices and decided I was going to learn how to craft them myself

I like to build bases and farms

[crisp wren]

I don't have mp, but I wouldn't use them myself either. I already have 1.5 billion I barely spend lol

[glad kettle]

I now own the largest base in the game plus I have more than 20 farms

[crisp gull]

For sure, I have way more units than I could probably ever spend, or care to spend lol

There really is no owning the “largest base in game” but ok
All that matters is you’re enjoying the game

[crisp wren]

Someone show them Joan's builds. 😛

[crisp gull]

I remember seeing this glitch built base at the end of one of the expeditions a few years ago, when I didn’t even know about glitch building, and couldn’t believe my eyes
NOT MY BASE/BUILD but yeah, the things talented people can do in NMS is incredible

[stiff terrace]

Cool, lots of ppl are at the unit cap as well as nanite cap.

[lime haven]

[stiff terrace]

I got to go see one. It was huge and absolutely stunning.

Hi Gunter! We love you

[crisp wren]

I want to, but I also like my Switch not blowing up.

[stiff terrace]

I do need to go do my trek to see Gunter

[stiff terrace]

There's was even a shower in the apartment. She has everything

[crisp gull]

I’ve been playing out the main story on my Switch 2
It is crazy seeing people in the Anomaly😂

[stiff terrace]

One day I'll figure out how to do showers. Wanted a shower room for the inground pool resort I made

Until then I only shower IRL

[crisp wren]

I am never going to get used to that when I upgrade to Switch 2 lol. "Ugh, why are there people here, ew"

[stiff terrace]

That's how I feel when I go outside 😂

[crisp wren]

I like my quiet, no stress, griefer-free weekend missions... whines

[stiff terrace]

Understandable

[spiral pivot]

I wish there was a ship like the trade rocket. Just get in and blast off.

Here’s a nice pic taken with my Switch 2

The detail is really good for a Switch (2)

[ocean coyote]

So I'm just downloading the game on PC game pass and was wondering if anyone has any tips for a beginner? Downloading it to play with a friend, the system looks pretty close to Starfield but the ship stuff and base building looks almost like Spore mixed with Ark..

[crisp gull]

There is a tutorial (although not really labeled as such) which sort of guides you through the basic systems, as does the main story questline

[wise arrow]

NMS is good on switch 2, in handheld mode it not too different from switch 1 though

[ocean coyote]

I'm not gonna lie the ship part has me itching for hunting ships and trying to go for rare ones.

I tend to be a mount hoarder in most games so this one has me excited being that there is no pay to win system to getting rare ones.

[crisp gull]

Yeah I always played docked, I don’t take the Switch with me very much. I know some really love the portability of it, but I have it largely for enjoyment of first party titles like Zelda games, Animal Crossing and occasionally Pokémon etc😂

[wise arrow]

It just disappointing only one way to play games is improved often aha
It's not even unique to NMS

[ocean coyote]

I heard switch 2 is pretty rough considering they can brick your system pretty easily. Ive heard horror stories about it and there is even a lawsuit against them because of it.

[wise arrow]

Just don't be a pirate and you'll be ok

Don't steal :p

[crisp gull]

Well I don’t use unauthorized stuff with Switch, so I’m not worried about it

[vestal gull]

the rog ally x struggles quite a lot with no mans sky so i wonder how the switch 2 will do

[inner pumice]

Switch 1 is my strongest device currently, I'm thinking to get switch 2 on CNY where they will have good sales

[paper siren]

[crisp gull]

Is that even out yet?

[vestal gull]

no mans sky for switch 2? i dont know. i havent payed much attention to the switch side of things

[crisp gull]

It’s very nice. I never found a switch 2 online, but wasn’t looking every day. I had signed up as a switch 1 owner back in April and just got my invite to buy a Switch 2 from Nintendo about 2 weeks ago, I’d almost forgot about signing up for it

[inner pumice]

From what I heard, it's beautiful on switch 2, HDR is same as oled

[crisp gull]

Sorry, meant the Rog

[vestal gull]

oh yeah the xbox varient isnt yet though

[stark lantern]

When update

I want new expedition

The wave might mean a goodbye to no man's sky and a hello to light no fire

[crisp gull]

Never know until maybe Sean posts an emoji😂

[stark lantern]

He did

[stiff terrace]

Nobody knows we just recently got the emoji.

[crisp gull]

Oh, what was the emoji

[stark lantern]

Wave

[vestal gull]

hes just waving back to me guys. nothing to fuss about

[stark lantern]

That's why they added it to the title of this channel

[crisp gull]

Maybe another water update? You never know with Sean though

[river phoenix]

Wednesday, almost definitely (but platforms other than Playstation and PC can be a little late)

[stark lantern]

Please get a silksong style lnf release trailer

[vestal gull]

silksong style?

[river phoenix]

Expedition might not be day one of the update, I think those are a little later usually?

[wise arrow]

It's gunna be a wild weekend
It could reasonably be a goodbye wave
Speculation for this update gunna be annoying lol

[crisp gull]

Switch is always the latest to get updates

[stark lantern]

Silksong released the trailer 2 weeks before the release date

[stiff terrace]

Like... Waiting several years to post any updates? After the announcement?

[wise arrow]

I haven't seen a exp come later unless the previous xp was buggy or extended

[stark lantern]

No like silksong dropped a release trailer randomly this week and now it's releasing September 6

Or smthn like that

[crisp gull]

As I understand it, made sense Beacon didn’t really have an expedition tied to it. They still got time left in the year for expeditions.

[river phoenix]

It has the potential to be extra annoying since people are probably going to keep speculating that whatever this is is the last update until the next one comes out, which likely wont be till next year lol

[crisp gull]

I’ve seen it much worse (with update speculation)

[vestal gull]

i find the stretched theories to be quite amusing to be honest

[inner pumice]

I think the new update is with fishing/underwater expedition and new physics and improvements on water?

[stark lantern]

I've also seen worse (silksong fans)

[stiff terrace]

Maybe the wave is like a greeting and we are getting like post card type frames to expand Photomode.

[stark lantern]

That would be cool

[stiff terrace]

If it doesn't happen somebody remind me to message that idea to hg. I will forget.

[vestal gull]

ahahaha best one ive heard yet

[lament onyx]

This has to be a bug.. I got an Autophage visitor at my settlement before I've completed the main story or even unlocked the Autophage..

[inner pumice]

Imo, the reason why it took so on a update, I think it's going to be big

[vestal gull]

more an oversight i think

[bleak thunder]

Clearly the wave is a wave goodbye. For the next update we'll see HG bought out by microsoft and shut down

[stiff terrace]

That's not a good reason to deny them. Seems pretty chill IMO.

Please tell me you let him stay

[lament onyx]

Yeah I accepted him and it was a good deal.
Tho I worry if I'll brick my save or something cause he's not supposed to be around yet lol.

[stiff terrace]

It won't. Settlements are separate enough that it shouldn't

[wise arrow]

True 😅

[stiff terrace]

Worst comes to worst he might change races

[wise arrow]

I hate that it's reasonably a goodbye wave don't get me wrong

[stiff terrace]

That's not how Sean would announce that

[wise arrow]

That's neither here or there a wave means hello and good-bye

[vestal gull]

could be something else too. like hand or slap

really it could tie in to anything

keep the speculation going 😛

oMg guYs ThE ATlAs GRoWs HanDs AnD sLaps US

[stiff terrace]

Still more realistic than it being Sean saying it's the last update

[bleak thunder]

I think NMS end of service will probably just be like the updates get smaller and less frequent until they stop and we all just kind of accept it without drama because obviously they have to move on at some point. No way they actually slip an announcement like that into routine update hype. They know how better than to risk the backlash.

[river phoenix]

I don't think they'd commit to stopping the updates. At most I can imagine a "hey, we're going to stop updating No Man's Sky for now so we can have all hands on deck to get Light No Fire out the door" not a "We've decided to stop working on this game that we're all really passionate about and love making new content for, for some reason"

[gleaming flame]

Plus if HG have the staff to keep NMS updated whilst being in full development on LNF, I don't see how updating both games isn't possible

[spiral pivot]

I hope they clarify what an emoji is for what game though. Don't want nms fans to get excited for a lnf update and vice versa

[blazing wraith]

Sales continue to be strong every time a new release comes out and media hype about the miracle of No Man's Sky gets press again. I doubt it will go away for a long time.

[stiff terrace]

Don't look at the reddit for either... 😂 Bc that's what's going on

[wise arrow]

NMS is the only true comeback story
Cyberpunk nerfed their game and stopped supporting last gen
NMS took on 3 more systems lol

[bleak thunder]

You won't find me complaining if I keep getting this kind of value out of the $60 I paid back in like 2018

[open whale]

I really hope no mans sky will not go away .. i have just started to play it.

[blazing wraith]

Lol, yah, I preordered (just after the bonus for preorder deadline 🤣) and have never regretted it... ❤️

[stiff terrace]

There's no reason to assume it is going away

[open whale]

hope so hope so

[vestal gull]

6 october 2019 here. paid $85 aud

worth it at full price

[bleak thunder]

One of the nice things about no man's sky is that it's very offline for a modern game with multiplayer. The devs could disappear tomorrow and you'd still be able to play the entire thing.

[vestal gull]

yup there is even a gog copy despite the game having some forms of drm

[stiff terrace]

Plus the fact that some of the updates we will be getting are testing ideas and stuff for lnf. So we know at minimum we have more coming not just from that but also everything they've been telling us

[open whale]

thanks that is nice to know cause I really like it.. I am playing in vr and enjoy it a lot up to now

[stiff terrace]

Any comments or posts you see speculating that the wave means that things are ending is... Well more absurd than the concept of a married bachelor

[crisp wren]

This is literally the Omega speculation all over again.

[little halo]

The interesting thing to me is that there are no sales yet

That gives me misguided hope that it's LNF news

[wise arrow]

Omega had it coming
Why advertise three blank spaces then omega

[vapid plaza]

it's the "[l]andshake" update.... we're going to get quakes and tsunamis.

[wise arrow]

Google's showing NMS has a sale on steam for me but not steam

[stiff terrace]

Technically since they are using nms to test sooner things for lnf it would be

[little halo]

Yeah I saw that as well.

[crisp wren]

"Omega means last! Guys, it's the final update!!"
...then it literally just turns out to be the expedition name.

[spiral pivot]

I always get space obsessed when I play NMS, I go and watch so many videos about space shuttles, space X etc

[crisp wren]

I'm going with ||something Void Mother related. Waves = Abyss =VM||

[wise arrow]

I just want shuttle customization or a boat

[stiff terrace]

I still want postcards

[crisp wren]

Both. Both is good.

[stiff terrace]

Like neat custom Photomode frames. Have the glyphs and stuff. Idk... I'm weird 😂

[spiral pivot]

What do people like about shuttle ships? To me they dont look that interesting

[wise arrow]

They the best ones

[crisp wren]

I wanna a tiny flying trash can that could.

[stiff terrace]

They aren't as cute as my little bug

[wise arrow]

Back in my day people hated haulers, how the tides turn on shuttles

[vestal gull]

i thought haulers were to go to ship in the early days?

idk i wasnt there

[wise arrow]

If you were inventory obsessed yeah now everything the same aha

[little halo]

Shuttles are objectively the worst ships

[spiral pivot]

Haulers and fighters are my favs.

[stiff terrace]

Solarsare pretty neat

[vestal gull]

SQUEEBS 🦑

[wise arrow]

Haulers got a massive glow up with hover wings

[bleak thunder]

I recall haulers being meta because you could cram more upgrades into them

[wise arrow]

During a exp get the iron Vulture and scrap it's wings
Pro tip

[little halo]

(I just pretend to hate shuttles for fun. Pick whatever ship looks best to you)

[glad dew]

I have a setinal and im trying so hard to like it

But ima be fr my fighter seems better maybe its js bc im used to it

[crisp wren]

Love the expedition terminal. As long as one is running, as many Iron Vulture parts as you want.

[stiff terrace]

That's the thing, ships and multi tools are different for different ppl. Like in my main character I love my staff, but my second character got a pretty cool royal

[crisp wren]

Yeah, it's all preference

[bleak thunder]

You could always hold out for one you like better, but also they're not like way better than any other ship either. Hard to beat early game, but you're not missing out terribly if you use a different kind of ship

[wise arrow]

I will say most interceptors suck lol

Boxy, tank legs, ect

Granted some look cool

[glad dew]

Yeah

I just soooo wish i could change the color, same with any other ship

[crisp wren]

You leave my green beetle boi alone lol

[stiff terrace]

I'm usually a guppy fan but small fins.

[wise arrow]

That looks like the bug wings model

[stiff terrace]

But... My new flea with the cute legs... I wondered a few days ago if it was possible. So glad I got it

[spiral pivot]

My ship

[glad dew]

Also how tf do i get activated quartzile and crystallized helium i aint never heard of that

[stiff terrace]

I just wish the tail was not as thicc

[bleak thunder]

You won't find them before the post game

[glad dew]

Oh okay

[crisp wren]

They're from ||planet binome types that are locked behind an endgame quest.||

[glad dew]

Ok

[stiff terrace]

Check the lfg trade chat. Somebody can gift you it or if they have a base with a teleporter you can go to their base and get it

[glad dew]

Asking bc exocraft summoning

[crisp wren]

It requires completing some of the game's storyline threads.

[glad dew]

Ok

[stiff terrace]

When you're on the space anomaly you can look at other bases of people there. It will also tell you what kind of planet it's on.

[glad dew]

Ok thanks

[wheat grove]

Predators can't keep getting away from this

[spiral pivot]

inserts breaking bad meme

[kind obsidian]

Ive just found out that the Emoji dropped on X

Through someone's video

Very great news

[little halo]

The only guesses I can think of so far are more water physics (unlikely since they already did that recently), something about tides like tidally locked moons (unlikely), boats with ||bases that move with them||, something with glass/water/Void Mother

Or LNF news

[wise arrow]

I'd like boat bases far more than space corvettes or whatever I already have a freighter

[little halo]

That gets into spoilers since it's datamined

Pretty widely known by now, but still

[kind obsidian]

I really would like more forcus with ship battles and pvp multiplayer

[little halo]

I don't think you'll ever see any focus on PvP from HG

[kind obsidian]

We just need to wait and see

[gleaming flame]

I'm wondering if it's a story update about the ||void mother||, since ||we let her in during the last main quest||

Saw someone mentioned the name Arrival which could be cool

[vestal gull]

sounds good

i like that

[little halo]

That would work as a title to match the emoji

Best guess I've heard so far

[kind obsidian]

Theres is many areas that say Void so thats defo a hint for the future

[icy wagon]

It may sound crazy, but I relate ||void mother|| to Eve and ||Atlas|| to Adam.

[vestal gull]

except im pretty sure the latter has existed far longer

||the void mother|| is a creation of the atlas

right?

[river phoenix]

If it's a wave emoji as in ocean waves, I can't imagine there's much more actual content they could add to oceans at this point (We've had three updates that added to them in the past year lol). Maybe it's just an expedition set underwater? The Aquarius one was set above water, and the Worlds Part II one didn't focus too much on the ocean worlds iirc despite them being one of the main features of the update.

[little halo]

It's not completely clear. There are conflicting perspectives in the lore, like Rashomon

I think the most likely explanation is that ||Void Mother is an emergent entity based on the Sentinel routines documenting the iterations of simulations, in particular the continued destruction of Korvax Prime and abuse of Korvax.|| But I won't talk about it anymore to avoid filling screens with spoiler tags 🙂

[vestal gull]

i sold off my first spawn relics to a korvax trader

i feel bad now

[little halo]

Oh, apparently tonight is the annual Guildford pub meetup. Maybe they will finally stop by and say hi, hence the greeting 🙂

[icy wagon]

Korvax Prime Flashbacks

[sleek quest]

We hot an emoji?

[little halo]

👋

[icy wagon]

Ye

[sleek quest]

👋

Hmmm............

[icy wagon]

👋

[sleek quest]

Now what could that be

[icy wagon]

You saw nothin'

[icy wagon]

No Man's Sky: Signals

[vestal gull]

another good update name

[icy wagon]

Or they can also remodel the entire multiplayer system or EMOTES

[vestal gull]

there has been also mention of arrival

[little halo]

Yeah, I briefly thought about that, an emote or interaction overhaul

[sleek quest]

Expedition 19: Weave?

[icy wagon]

I would find it strange if they gave the waves an upgrade.

They already gave him his rich change at Worlds

[sleek quest]

Based on my time here, I think the emojis are meant to say the update name rather than what's gonna be in it

[little halo]

You mean water waves? I also think that's unlikely

[sleek quest]

🥓 was Beacon

[icy wagon]

Yeah

[little halo]

It depends, sometimes it's been contents, sometimes it's been name

[icy wagon]

No, its bacon

[sleek quest]

But then again we had 🪐

[icy wagon]

BBQ Bacon Burga

[sleek quest]

for Gas filled WP2

[little halo]

It was Beacon, then they lost the 'e', and now it's bacon

[vestal gull]

pretty much all the emojis have made sense in hindsight

[sleek quest]

🏺 for aquarius no?

[little halo]

Yeah, amphora

[sleek quest]

Hmmmm

[icy wagon]

Yes, but the sign of Aquarius would be much better.

♒

[little halo]

Amphora were associated with Aquarius

[vestal gull]

except maybe 🍊 and 🏺 . they make no sense

[frigid slate]

when theres a super perfect planet.... except brain exploding storms 😒

[spiral pivot]

Or its dissonant

[little halo]

Origins and oranges doesn't make sense?

[sleek quest]

Sean is trying to be as cryptid as possible

[little halo]

I hope you mean cryptic 😉

[icy wagon]

They are words that are similar but not in meaning.

[little halo]

Sean is bigfoot!

[sleek quest]

If you punch someone in the face who already has a speech impediment then MAYBE it would sound similar

[little halo]

bacon and beacon don't make sense for content either. Many times it's just a pun

[icy wagon]

Maybe it won't happen, but hopefully the update will have something to do with alien companions. Imagine traveling alongside a character from the Anomaly.

[sleek quest]

No, Sean is a cryptid who confuses entire servers with just a few images

[little halo]

Don't forget, he's Irish, vocal puns may be different for him

[sleek quest]

That makes a lot of sense

I always thought he was british

Since HG is based in the UK

[little halo]

Nah, he's Irish, and one of the other first devs is Welsh

[sleek quest]

(I am bad at geography)

[vestal gull]

tangerine > citrus fruits > orange > origins update??

[icy wagon]

huh

[vestal gull]

unless you mean oranges to sound like origins but i doubt thats it

[icy wagon]

Obviously the update wasn't about oranges, or was it?

[vestal gull]

nope

[little halo]

Oh he apparently lived a few years in Australia as a kid, giving him an even stranger accent

[icy wagon]

It's just well-made puns

[safe tendon]

🥓 -> bacon-> beacon

[sleek quest]

It's gonna be either Weave, an update to player customization(highly unlikely) or Wave, just straight up Wave

[little halo]

Origins sounds very much like Oranges in some accents

[vestal gull]

most of the updates never get predicted based off an emoji alone

🥓 was easily guessed

[icy wagon]

Do you think he has a strange accent? It seems like the most normal accent to me.

[sleek quest]

I had a pact guessing Beckon on that lmao

[vestal gull]

for example i dont recall anyone guessing 💪 being endurance. but it kind of makes sense

[gleaming flame]

It's very unlikely to be a single feature overhauls like relics was, imo. Lots of people on reddit are guessing it's stuff like ocean waves and stuff

Which I don't really see happening

[sleek quest]

Sean's emojis make everyone feel like an idiot once the update drops

[vestal gull]

🤬 was also an easy one

[icy wagon]

There are some emojis that literally say what the next update could be, others are about finding a similar word

[vestal gull]

yup

[sleek quest]

Oh yeah that one gave me a win and changed @safe tendon 's nickname

[little halo]

Yeah, Endurance wasn't obvious

[icy wagon]

Angry person

[frigid slate]

seaworld still doesnt have big enough tanks 🙁

[vestal gull]

swearing = cursing

cursed came as a natural guess

[gleaming flame]

I still think Arrival ngl

[sleek quest]

[vestal gull]

i still think expedition 16 should of been reserved for something special

[icy wagon]

Better the 16th anniversary

[little halo]

I'm thinking it's the Salutation update. That sounds good

[vestal gull]

something to do with the atlas idk

[icy wagon]

That's what I'm waiting for.

[inner pumice]

I think the update is summer

[icy wagon]

._.

[sleek quest]

It was special

Cursed was fun

[vestal gull]

i wont deny that

but its expedition 16

the funny no mans sky number

[icy wagon]

The truth is I didn't like that most of its content only stayed in the expedition

[gleaming flame]

Star trek reference?

[sleek quest]

Greetings update?

[icy wagon]

But Greetins to what?

New race?

Humans?

[sleek quest]

Mayhaps

[little halo]

No, just a word that would definitely not be used as an update title

[vestal gull]

erm. are we forgetting its HELLO GAMES? its what they do

[icy wagon]

Each teaser can mean anything

[little halo]

No Man's Sky: Adieu

[icy wagon]

And after the update: Goodbye Games

🤣

[vestal gull]

D:

[sleek quest]

The update drops, no name and it's just when you open the game it says "Hi" and everything else is normal?

[icy wagon]

Please don't listen to me

[gleaming flame]

Mercury

[little halo]

I'd like that, but most people would want to crucify them

[stiff terrace]

Wait... Do you think console players will be able to text chat?

[icy wagon]

I don't know how to make jokes

[icy wagon]

Hopefully

[sleek quest]

Y'all can't text?

[little halo]

My guess is that the console platforms have some sort of moderation rules and HG doesn't have the resources to deal with that

[icy wagon]

"You know how long ive be waitin' for this?"

[vestal gull]

press enter

[little halo]

Consoles can't use text

[vestal gull]

on pc

[little halo]

Even with a keyboard

[icy wagon]

Oh yeah, the PS5 controller has that button.

[sleek quest]

It's not like us PC players are constantly getting bombarded with slurs and swears

[vestal gull]

question: can console players see messages from pc players?

[icy wagon]

Yes

[sleek quest]

I think so yes

[vestal gull]

so theyre just mutes. got it

[little halo]

As a developer with six employees, at launch, if the platform said you have to have moderation to have text chat enabled, I would definitely say "yeah, no"

[sleek quest]

They can do voice chat

[icy wagon]

Also

And I think it's more practical than writing.

[vestal gull]

then the joke doesnt work :/

oh well. good for them

[icy wagon]

(Please Hello Games, add your own in-game keyboard)

[sleek quest]

Not when you have a microphone as garbage as mine

[gleaming flame]

Text chat on console isn't really the best experience ngl

[stiff terrace]

Not necessarily. There's programs that auto mod certain things ... Which in my experience Xbox likes. ( The weirdest crap gets auto modded in every single game)

[sleek quest]

Going to each letter individually ☠️

[icy wagon]

I understand your pain

[little halo]

Modern consoles have USB or wireless keyboard attachments

[icy wagon]

Well, I'm going now. Good night, everyone.

[little halo]

👋

[sleek quest]

lmao

[icy wagon]

UPDATE REFERENCIA

[sleek quest]

👋

[icy wagon]

🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[little halo]

Maybe I'll just hang out in the Nexus and wave at everyone repeatedly

I was going to work on updating custom ships and freighters, but I don't want to put the time in right before an update

[wise arrow]

I'm semi excited for this update to see what's added
I hope POIs get updated but other than that NMS has been in great shape since worlds part 2

[sleek quest]

Imma grind my other games because once the update drops it's back to NMS

[wise arrow]

Beacons is the only update I didn't like aha but the cursed was pointless

[spiral pivot]

POIs have always confused me a bit. They've stayed the same since launch. Some added yes but, they can add the derelict freighter tech to planets. Idk wht they won't

[vestal gull]

i dont understand the beacons hate

[spiral pivot]

People just dont care for settlements

[little halo]

Several updates in the past were mostly laying the groundwork for later major changes, like Worlds Part I did a ton under the hood

[vestal gull]

ah so its a case of the update being perceived as underwhelming?

[sleek quest]

Those who don't like settlements or management got practically nothing out of the update

[woeful solar]

👋

[spiral pivot]

I think so, I like settlements more then bases so I was happy lol

[little halo]

Yeah, settlements were what I considered the absolute worst feature of the game. I told people on Switch they were better off not having it. So I thought it was much needed

[vestal gull]

its an improvement and it doesnt harm the game so i wont complain

yeah unless youre on switch

then rip

[wise arrow]

Settlements Are a relic of the gimmick era
I still think they pretty mid after the update

[sleek quest]

Well now you can have 4 of them

[wise arrow]

It harmed the game buildings and player bases were bugged for months

[spiral pivot]

I noticed after frontiers they went to improving features already in the game rather than adding new crap

[wise arrow]

I was personally affected by beacons

[little halo]

Oh I've got it! Waving at ships will finally actually make them land, rather than just the coincidences people keep claiming are a game mechanic on Reddit

[sleek quest]

Fishing:

[vestal gull]

YES!

[little halo]

Gas Giants

[spiral pivot]

True, but most updates since 2021 have been about deepening mechanics

[sleek quest]

Ah I love the smell of paranoia in the morning

[sleek quest]

Water worlds and Gas giants in WP2:

[vestal gull]

i love updates that add new mechanics into the game like fishing

[sleek quest]

Also Abandoned mode

[vestal gull]

yet to try that

[sleek quest]

Which is still broken

[wise arrow]

Abandoned mode needs access to an abandoned freighter
