i'm pretty sure this is for just no man's sky related screenshots @main dove
main dove
They are planets
cerulean finch

indigo tulip
..what
main dove
Do you even have the game @main dove? Lmao
You have*
Yes I do for ps4
Saw that now hehe
copper meadow
You can't see the ground until you get VERY close.
errant needle
@copper meadow honestly I love planets like that
main dove
How else do you think I found the planets
errant needle
It's atmospheric as hell
main dove
Finally i can say fuck off to this horrible solar system and get back to ma home
copper meadow
It's nice having such a wide spectrum of planets now, rather than just six.
errant needle
Reminds me of that forested one in one of the trailers where it was constantly raining
copper meadow
DESERT, ICE, DESERT, OTHER ICE, DESERT AND GARDEN
main dove
Lmao
copper meadow
I'm being facetious but it did feel like that a lot of the time.
main dove
True
errant needle
Yeah it did feel for quite a while like they lost track of the whole point of having procedurally generated planets when they all fit specific categories like Minecraft biomes
main dove
A reason why i bought it when next came
atomic mortar
back with silly names
main dove
But i liked watching it on youtube tho
prime ice
Finally found a decent planet
main dove
Im back baby
atomic mortar
THIS GUY REALLY IS NICE
errant needle
I hope in future updates they add more art assets and more creative ways of using them. They've already improved that currently with those planets with the giant spikes
copper meadow
Sorry, my irradiated hell hole is prettier. I can't prove it because it's impossible to see anything for 95% of the day but you'll have to take my word for it: it's quite beautiful when everything isn't being bombarded by 30 rads.
main dove
I like this planet
errant needle
I want to see more like that. Planets that truly experiment with procedural generation to create places that are more unique
atomic mortar
which creature is that
errant needle
It feels like that vision was lost to some degree on release
main dove
The momosapien
copper meadow
I think, and I could be wrong, that Next shows they sort of started to get a fleshed out vision.
copper pine
copper meadow
I don't think NMS will ever be a really 'clear' game, but it does seem like they have a better idea of what they can do with it.
main dove
This one creeped me out
errant needle
Certainly
copper meadow
I mean, the freighter gameplay is an excellent example. It's nothing special overall, but it adds a nice flourish and expands on player opportunities, and they slotted it nicely into space the game had available. The new 'dead' stuff really makes me hope they slide a little horror into the game moving forwards, the eggs are a nice touch but there's room to have nice planets and horrors in this universe. I hope we get both.
Also we finally got a FEW new hazards in terms of radiation leaks and poison plants.
errant needle
I like that they're making more varied use of art assets like how RaYRoDs overhaul mod does
It just makes planets feel more varied and different to each other rather than a couple presets
Oh and continents
My god
copper meadow
Well, and at the same time, each planet has a 'theme' to itself. The colors, plants, layouts and materials feel like they contribute.
errant needle
Yeah
copper meadow
You don't see random stuff placed next to one another, stuff 'fits' better.
errant needle
I think just being braver and more "ecstatic" with how the algorithm manipulates art assets makes a huge difference
copper meadow
Could be, could be.
errant needle
Again, like those spiky rock planets
main dove
God damn it lmao
errant needle
It's just one asset but upscaled
errant needle
But it's a whole new biome
copper meadow
But yeah, I think they are showing more comfort with the engine. Next really doesn't 'change' NMS so much as it gives it room to breathe if that makes sense. I know a lot of people are saying "Oh, it saved it." or, "It's so different." But it really isn't, it just feels like they said okay we have all this stuff: what can we do with it.
errant needle
Yeah
copper meadow
I mean, they repurposed almost all the assets in one way or another, but crafting is the best example: it has always been there but it was largely a case of who cares?
main dove
Aside from literally changing all the recipes and buildable items and upgrades, yeah, it's exactly the same :p`
copper meadow
Now it feels like a part of the game with meaningful stuff you do.
The crafting itself hasn't changed at all, but all the recipes and items are now useful for more than just selling.
copper meadow
It's cthulu!
main dove
o_O
copper meadow
Also, 0/10 planet is not deadly enough 🙃
copper meadow
I'm pretending that's a motorboat getting sweet air.
The two are in a race.
Who will win?
errant needle
I'm still a little sad that we'll never see some stuff from the trailer though. Also the aesthetic of the game as a whole feels very different now to how it did in the trailers, although it has since they showcased NPCs for the first time
I'll always be a little sad that we never got to see that NMS. The small interesting indie game
But I'm happy now with what we have
copper meadow
I've heard other people say that and I think that has to do more with finding some sort of an identity or path. The old trailers and much of what Sean talked about are a game that doesn't really know what the player does. In fact, I'd argue the launch of NMS basically proved the game never nailed down that part.
But it feels like with Next the embraced the identity they created and decided to do something with the pieces they had built. There is some new content like the freighter stuff and the multiplayer, but Next comes off to me as re-expressing the content in the game in a way that feels more like a game.
twin kite
Anyone have a good looking anomaly
copper meadow
Or to put it another way, if Atlas Rises made the game playable, Next made it into a game.
errant needle
I always saw it as "explore and have some stuff happen as you journey to the centre". Like space battles and discovering portal cords and so on
There's a term for what I'm talking about but I forgot it
Emergent gameplay
That's it
It's sad that they set the bar too high and Sony followed through
copper meadow
That was the issue at launch, what emergent gameplay? Now, this is me reaching back into pre-Next NMS, but the question I asked before launch was "yeah, but what do you DO" and the answer it turns out was "fly and mine"
We had this infinite universe to look at, but very little in the way of something to do inside of it other than look at it.
errant needle
One of my biggest remaining gripes is that they made planets bigger and further apart and added pulse drive
So you can't have emergent gameplay in space as you are whizzing around at light speed
spark cove
errant needle
No flying to a planet and having a fleet warp in suddenly unless you intentionally stop
indigo tulip
copper meadow
And here I am going "they aren't far enough apart, and we should be able to travel faster!" It's just a personal thing but I wish NMS would tone down the ultra fantasy sci-fi aesthetic sometimes. Just like it's okay to have deadly planets, it's okay to have ... less charismatic space.
indigo tulip
found my first bug. i just saved a freighter and it flew off when I declined
errant needle
Tbh the ultra fantasy was what set it apart for me
I like Elite Dangerous for instance but the ultra realism gets a little dull eventually simply because space is dull
copper meadow
I don't mind that it exists, I just wish it wasn't always the case. It's liked the ringed planets. Absolutely fabulous, love them, super sexy. Does there have to be one everywhere?
prisma barn
copper meadow
Maybe, but ultimately it makes them a little less interesting because they show up constantly. It's not bad, it's just from an artistic perspective when everything is colorful then a lack of color stands out so to speak. And NMS is sort of guilty of trying to be a 10 everywhere, and sort of allowing some of the interesting stuff to be lost in the noise.
It doesn't kill the game for me or anything, but that's my gripe as it were 😄
errant needle
Ironically I've noticed that planetary colour palettes seem to be a lot stricter than in the trailers for instance
Very few green skies outside of toxic worlds
Very few orange outside of irradiated worlds
Again, I just hope they continue to play around with the generation in the future and give it more control
copper meadow
Certainly, I agree.
And, to touch on the theme we've been discussing, I do think they've sort of found that ability and hopefully it just continues.
copper meadow
Not to mention I think they have started to solidify their ARG/NMS presentation. I honestly feel like some of what we see is a suggestion of the future we're waiting to experience.
errant needle
I was starting to feel that the game had lost track of what it sold itself on, even if that thing didn't necessarily make good gameplay
They added procedural tech too
copper meadow
I would only argue that I'm not so sure the game it sold itself on WAS. Ask what people thought it would be at launch and the mind reels, it was everything! It was anything! Then people realized it was a game, and not to salt anything but not a very good one either.
errant needle
I mainly meant the focus on procedural generation
copper meadow
The Spore comparisons are so apt it's almost painful. Two games that promised or showed everything and ultimately, when it came time to play, were... well: games.
errant needle
Again, I just hope they continue to give the engine more ability to mess around with the assets they feed it and maybe make more
We have bigger trees now too so that's a good example
copper meadow
We'll see, if nothing else Hello Games knows how to make an update. All of them have been bigger, louder and better than the last. I don't expect them to do that forever, but it leaves me optimistic and interested in the future.
errant needle
I can't wait to see what they do with these community events
copper meadow
But you bring up a good point, and I see what you were getting at. The exocraft are a great example.
I mean, they are fine as is but you are right, a big bullet point is the procedural everything. So from that perspective the exocraft feel downright out of place.
errant needle
Sorry, I was venting a bit
This is all stuff I was considering putting in a Reddit post or something
Not that there's really any point in doing so
copper meadow
Well, Reddit is where people go to bark. So not really, no. But sometimes that's all we want is someone to hear our thoughts and respond to them. Like ... a discussion. 😄
And on that note, @errant needle I really enjoyed this discussion with you, it was fun! But I'm going back to my irradiated hell world 😄 I'll see you around!

The one planet that had activated copper had a 200F degree base temperature with constant heat storms that made it impossible to stay outside of the ship for more than 30 seconds.
unique shadow
but how can you mine Activated metals ?
tropic tusk
Same way you mine regular metals
unique shadow
I've tried with the terrain thingy for Activated Copper and it didn't work .
tropic tusk
Terrain manipulator.
unique shadow
it just wouldn't dig .
tropic tusk
Hmm.
summer bramble
@unique shadow that is the ship
tropic tusk
Do you need the advanced mining laser with it?
unique shadow
Prolly a bug ?
main dove
wasnt a forest 😮 it was a jungle
unique shadow
oh wow . That's huge . My big ship only has 29 slots.
main dove
Alot of jungles at this continent
tropic tusk
You can't mine directly next to your ship
unique shadow
I'm working rn for a max slots one /
unique shadow
@tropic tusk Oh... that was it , then . lol
unique shadow
and I think I've waited like 5-6 mins for the storm to clear
summer bramble
What I advise is to get started on the exco craft missions and get the laser for them for mining in those extreme planets guys
you can use it to mine, you only need the terraformer when on foot
tropic tusk
Mhm, I was waiting for the storms to clear and each one was like 5 minutes followed by only about a minute of calm
It was rediculous.
unique shadow
Anyways , now I've found aplanet with Salt Deposits. SO I'm going to mine these to make some money .
golden compass
Best way to kill these things
summer bramble
lol
main dove
xD
golden compass
😄
tropic tusk
Also, it's a shame that you can't really color the miscs for the Gek.
grave heath
Its easier to make money by grabbing those whispering eggs
main dove
found this canal that connects two of the oceans
grave heath
Nice
tropic tusk
God I love how pretty screenshots in this game look.
It's such an amazing game for just getting desktop worthy pics.
main dove
time to get back xD
thats right
lol
omg
I came home at the exact moment a firestorm begun
Thats luck lol
summer bramble
main dove
Oxygen is rare on new earth so it is harder getting the antimatter housing then the antimatter lmao
crude slate
hey look what i stumbled on 😄
main dove
YOU GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING WITH ME
tropic tusk
?
main dove
i have been grinding all day for this god damn warp cells
And the system i was in was the Vy'keen
Dominant Lifeform
omfg
tropic tusk
GG
compact ingot
Hhmm.... anti matter description gets my interest, stating you better not use it without housing
compact ingot
"Drops antimatter on planet surface" now lets see what happens
tropic tusk
Also, it seems you can learn the locations of drop pods randomly while asking aliens for directions.
main dove
The New Earth is still beatiful af lol
tropic tusk
Just like how they'll give you the locations of other things
compact ingot
Have they fixed the thing where if you ask for locations multiple times the previous one would vanish?
summer bramble
Man am I glad I got this setup the way I did.. made having a backup form for the tool other than the mining beam to the boltcaster the best way to complete the sentinel hunt mission since that javelin uses carbon and oxygen like the beam for ammo
deft brook
i warp into a unknown system little did i know i was going to face death it self only moments latter. after nearly smashing my ship into the side of this monster of a freighter due to bad jump cords i was quickly hailed on an emergency channel asking for all nearby ships to assist. smirking i took the challenge and in the end the captain happily giving me his class C ship
compact ingot
Hhmm lemme try find a old screen of my old multitool
summer bramble
I want an S class version of that
tropic tusk
Wait the javelin just requires carbon like the mining beam?
summer bramble
yup
deft brook
hmm could have added a bit more detail to that post, a bit more menacing feeling maybe
tropic tusk
Ooo that instantly puts it up into viable for me.
summer bramble
just need to install the damage boost upgrade now is all
tropic tusk
Since I assume it's a hitscan weapon too instead of a projectile.
summer bramble
summer bramble
wot.. I went through a portal on one of my stations and this came up lol
sterile ice
compact ingot
Nice one kurz
main dove
I hope i will get the exocraft after the farmer lmao
compact ingot
Next goal for me: make a fancy 4k screen on NMS for background wallpaper xD
summer bramble
should be before @main dove since you don't get the farmer until the gek tells you to get him since that is the stage I am on right now, just need to find some solenium
compact ingot
But gotta wait atleast 6-6.5 hours till i can play again
sterile ice
I'm stuck at work overnight. 😦 Would rather be playing..
crude slate
oh nice i got a rank s shield from a cargo drop o3o
now i have, quote, a 'supreme' protection in sub zero temps
sterile ice
👏
broken hatch
Not sure how rare this is, but found a truck load of sodium (about 1000+) and sold it for 45k units.
broken hatch
Usually you'd only find individual ones.
main dove
Yeah
summer bramble
@main dove the order should be: science > exo > armourer > farmer
summer bramble
interesing, the order I stated has been the same for me each and every time on all the saves since launch of the game
sterile ice
@broken hatch I found one of those sodium piles. Was nice. 😄
broken hatch
Not so rare but probably uncommon then Kurz
summer bramble
either way once you get the exo's started with the roamer it will make things a lot easier esp on the home planet
compact ingot
I remeber early game cash from that green stuff. Because it was common as fuck. Irridium i think it was? (pre next)
summer bramble
sterile ice
Yeah, probably. I've only seen it once is around 15 hours on the new patch.
main dove
Can be that i need to wait the next 2 minutes for the scientist guy to reboot
compact ingot
Found it. It was emeril
crystal remnant
@broken hatch it happens more than you think..
split sierra
My view after a space station spawned on top of me as I was flying, trapping me inside :s
summer bramble
broken hatch
@crystal remnant Hence I said I'm not sure how rare it is. But now it seems more of a common thing.
summer bramble
I am so glad I kept all that sodium that I found earlier lol

That looks really nice 😮

After about 4000u of walking i found a deposit of copper lmao
unique shadow
Those percentages..
sweet ember
holy moly
celest abyss
sweet ember
The actual building feels a bit weird for me tho
like sometimes it doesnt place anywhere near where i want it to
compact ingot
I guess just trail and error getting used to ir
compact ingot
I feel kinda double on the change of mining ore deposits with terrain manip instead of mining laser
With mining laser it felt a bit faster. But then again mining laser deplated slower at first (for my feeling)
summer bramble
@compact ingot like I said earlier you can mine with the one on the exocrafts once you get it, the manipulator is only when on foot
compact ingot
Yea i know. But i mean the on foot part
summer bramble
I just circle the deposit to clear as much out then get the reminder on foot where it can't reach
compact ingot
Is the biggest exo still slow as hell?
summer bramble
feels a tad faster than pre next but yea still slowish
compact ingot
And the layout of exocraft inv still terrible? Or has it been inproved (as in layout and slots)
summer bramble
pretty much the same
need a way to actually upgrade them to the max slots for each
compact ingot
I just (yes i know) used save edit to increase and took units from my bank as conpensation
Pre next that was
main dove
I love this planet
sweet ember
Thats a nice planet you got there!
main dove
Yeah if you just dont mind the firestorms that comes every 10th minute xD
sweet ember
ahaha i found a planet just like that once but it had aggressive sentinels and there were boiling rainstorms every like five minutes
luckily i was in creative so i didnt like die
compact ingot
After 30 try's i gave up on getting a safe starting planet last night xD
sweet ember
i still need to try out the normal mode on next, i've been playing creative since it's release ahaha
summer bramble
yea starting planet is not an issue its the one later that you want to choose if its home base or not and go from there
summer bramble
This is the one I am on for home base
main dove
sweet ember
Night storms are so good looking for screenshots, i took this one last night
compact ingot
Yea but i kinda disliked: oh you just starting? Yea that detailed air gazing just took 75% of your hazard protect
summer bramble
best thing is that my conflict level is also at lawless so I can farm out bounties later lol
main dove
The solarsystem next to me looks good too
But that planet is a hell radiation and double of the radiation in the water
sweet ember
oof
summer bramble
oh right I forgot I was wanting to get started on the farmer missions.. still need to find solenium xD
sweet ember
compact ingot
Time to heat ro hot planet then if i remeber correctlt
main dove
I'm gonna try to buy solanium lmao
will probably not work because the game hates me tho
crude slate
sweet ember
Any of you guys here use the tessellation? it looks really sweet
main dove
@celest abyss that;s cool as hell bro; I'm finding the terrain around base building to be buggy as all shit
amber slate
This bad boy for free yeah.

compact ingot
Free freighter is still a new thing for me lol
sweet ember
wait there's free freighters?
raven fable
There is, in the new story line. Not strictly a spoiler since sean mentioned this in his interview
😄
sterile ice
Yeah, it doesn't take too long either.
summer bramble
yea your first one is free, its like your 3-4th warp
speaking off just warped to this place.. see if it has what I need
sweet ember
Planetary rings are one of my favourite additions, they just make the sky look so heckin nice
summer bramble
sweet ember
Oh wow, nice shot!
