It will cost 0 nanite. lol

[sleek dragon]

Too much green and I like it

[hoary steeple]

damn I might actually use it then

although using radiant shards to fuel everything is so convenient

[gloomy isle]

OG xbox station

[prime zodiac]

Damn
I just dupe em

[gloomy isle]

Actually with the ball it looks like the 360 lol

[real cosmos]

does that still work ??

[prime zodiac]

Last time i checked
Then again last i played was right after staff update so a while back

[sand karma]

Has anyone spotted an overseer in the new stations? I don't have a save that's at the point you need to recruit them rn, but really curious how it works with those side-rooms gone. 😄

[real cosmos]

with all the updates one would think they fixed that old bug allowing duping...

[prime zodiac]

Nah probably not 😂
I hope not i love it

[dense phoenix]

I wonder if interceptors and solars are compatible with the custom ship maker

[late tusk]

damn so

now having negative rep fucks prices up huh...

[prime zodiac]

😂 just quit killing all those innocents

[icy citrus]

Not currently

I'd guess solars would be a potential addition, but sentinel ships are extremely complex

[glad palm]

I wonder how the fleet mission will work, because they still work when offline, but what happens if there is an event? what then?

[late tusk]

so i just watched the trailer...

WE CAN HELP OUR OUR FLEET

[latent ingot]

I'd guess they only trigger if you're on. Couldn't see them delaying missions waiting for you

[gloomy isle]

Very glad we can't make out own exotics etc

Well balanced approach

[real cosmos]

hmm... I kinda wonder where are recruits now.... I guess just walking around ?

[late tusk]

me a space pirate: 😭

[latent ingot]

RIP ur wallet

[late tusk]

fr....

i might legit have to like

get friendly with them.

[solar turret]

didnt they say something about recoloring ships

[latent ingot]

Orrrrr...counterpoint: steal more of their stuff to counter their inflation

[late tusk]

omg ur right!

[signal tulip]

you can recolor the one you build

[late tusk]

oh neat

see sean was never gonna fuck over you hunters

[azure mortar]

Nope, first thing I checked 🙂

[late tusk]

i want to put hauler balls on my fighter :(

[signal tulip]

i need to see the full patchnotes

[azure mortar]

Well, I guess some of us will have to resort to pirating, when a maxed out reputation prevents you from purchasing stuff XD

[signal tulip]

the guilds in on themselves seem fun, but I wonder what else is good.

[latent ingot]

That will be fixed

[late tusk]

tbh the only guilds i care about are merchants/mercenaries/explorers tbh

[azure mortar]

I'm sure it will, and I hope it won't take long. I'm just glad I got my engine modules just the other day.

[signal tulip]

aint that the only three?

[elfin arrow]

god i love this update so much

[late tusk]

oh my god finally

[glad palm]

Hopefully, i dont wana get notification that my S tier frigate is blown up only because i was not there (offline) even tho i went 2 stars above recommended settings for that fleet expedition

[latent ingot]

Ooh you would know....anything happen when you finish all the outlaw milestones? Like the getting free stuff from the guild envoys

[azure mortar]

I also noticed the exosuit upgrade stations in each space station have been reset, and the seeds for some upgrade modules seem changed (in the sense of specific S class modules showing up in certain stations).

[sand karma]

Grabbing units from vunerable servers is such a small thing, but feels lovely 😄

[solar turret]

how lame

[late tusk]

i guess its time to like

build my dream fighter

[flat jetty]

Dope new update

[signal tulip]

yep, go around, scrap the fighters for the parts, and then build your dream one :p

[compact coyote]

IMG I JUST WOKE UP

[rapid hedge]

Awesome update. Still no roomscale option for us VR players 😭

[late tusk]

why 👏 are the ship modules nanites ARGHHH

[nimble heath]

Nice to see that those speculating space stations coming were correct. Massive changes.

[signal tulip]

you can get the modules just from scrapping ships tho

just have to find the right ship

[gloomy isle]

Can't wait for people to start digging in the files to see what might be next

[ebon spoke]

Found a station where the interior panels are all rusty and worn down. The amount of variation on these interiors is pretty sick!

[nimble heath]

It's actually insane what they've achieved here.

[azure mortar]

When you scrap a ship, you have the new option to extract a part. For a new ship you need all four parts and a core that defines the class, and that can be purchased for nanites.

[signal tulip]

oh right. fair

[azure mortar]

So essentially, you can mix and match the shape pieces from different ships you salvaged.

[compact coyote]

They actually did it

My god

[azure mortar]

But you can't extract parts from solars, exotics or alien ships

[sterile schooner]

Or shuttles

[ebon spoke]

Yeah you can't make Shuttles, Solars, Exotics, Living Ships, or Interceptors (at least not yet)

[sand karma]

Best space station interior variation I've seen so far tbh

[compact coyote]

That’s insane

I can’t wait to play today

Hopefully

[quasi oyster]

You can get ship cores as a reward from missions as well. At a mission guy on the station and he’s sending me to hunt low level pirates for a Ship Core Reward. Lvl 2 Merchant guild quest

[late tusk]

lets not let this distract us from the fact that the ovveride chip still has no use :C

[icy citrus]

That's because we can't own stations yet

[late tusk]

😭

[real cosmos]

hmm... the babbling of the synthesis companion has been changed, it sounds like a calm speech now instead of a continous stream of annoying sounds. It moves a lot less too

[gloomy isle]

I would honestly love to have an apartment in a station lol

Just like a little elevator off to the side that takes you to a procedural room you can decorate etc

[real cosmos]

gemini and hesperus now give some random junk

[pure bay]

I just wish we could modify a ship we already own

[solar turret]

shit's straight out of cyberpunk

[real cosmos]

this is a big bugged...

[gloomy isle]

Is it just me or is there a new trailer lady

[icy citrus]

Has been, for the last few

[compact coyote]

Really? I didn’t notice the difference at all

[real cosmos]

Mercury gives planetary charts. Did it do that before ?

[hoary falcon]

https://youtu.be/cZcqr6OJwNg?si=d1L0eNFhX99SIeG_

That's crazy

Matte or metallic finishes ♥️

UNAVAILABLE in galactic standard ships

That's crazy

[gloomy isle]

Crazy to think that there's at least another big content update this year too

[lone perch]

I'm happy I can switch my ships in the space stations now

[mighty rampart]

it was weird anyway since it sounded like a vykeen

station override still does nothing?

[sand karma]

This update also highlighted something about fleet expeditions that I think is often overlooked. Frigates you send somewhere can be found in the star system where the map says they are meant to be. I've landed and repaired on them in the past that way to keep them going.

Now we do apparently have new proper interactions for them though. 😄

They also warp to next star systems in real time. Like my Normandy just warped away.

[hazy ice]

synthesis companion?

[real cosmos]

the dude selling designs for quicksilver

[hazy ice]

ohhh

[mighty rampart]

oh I thought you meant the holo gek decoration

[real cosmos]

it used to "speak" very fast and annoyingly non-stop, it's "calm" now

[hazy ice]

I always just think of him as "quicksilver merchant/vendor"

[uncut harness]

I think the entire community should be stoked about this update, the ship customization is done exactly the way people wanted I think

[hazy ice]

I forgot he had that full title/name

[hazy ice]

there will always be people mad about something sadly

[uncut harness]

I know I'm pretty happy with the way they implemented it, looking forward to having a mix of naturally hunted ships, and custom ones

I wonder if I can salvage a part from a golden vector haha

[real cosmos]

not sure why shuttles are missing, maybe they didn't have time to finish

it's not like a shuttle is special in any way...

[hazy ice]

if you ever looked at shuttles you'll see why

they arent really lego like parts

they are sorta mashed together

[real cosmos]

nah, still made of parts, but with various connection points, not just straight in the middle

[uncut harness]

Hopefully they can get shuttles in a future update

[hazy ice]

plus it might be due to old code

I believe shuttles are the oldest ship type

[uncut harness]

Yeah, I bet this was the "proof of concept" and it'll be expanded when they can circle back to it

[real cosmos]

most likely, yes, a lot of potential improvements based on new code

even completely new ship types

[uncut harness]

Yeah unique parts would be a great addition eventually

Gives a lot of options for expedition rewards also

[hazy ice]

solar and interceptors not being included due to the moving parts/jerryrigged code to get them animated that way?

[uncut harness]

I imagine it's also that those ships require special technology modules, and the ships they have now don't

it's all the core of the feature from what I see, which means it'll be like this for a while to get feedback and then add more later

[real cosmos]

tbh I can already see the next expanison based on station designs -> 2nd floor will allow player designed rooms like on freighter

those walls look like placeholders for doors

[hazy ice]

what if, player stations in uninhabited systems

[ashen geode]

Love the new ship colors! But would have loved black being available, otherwise great update as always, Hello Games delivred ^^

[ashen geode]

I think so too, seen some people having their ship screen (With the welcome to the station message) says "Welcome Home?" when landing there

Cannot provide screenshot, but look at this video at 27:29 from Captain Steve https://www.youtube.com/live/tAJ9X8mODio?si=vDT5Y6lGxxMrHiQa

[hazy ice]

GoG no update pain

[real cosmos]

wait... aquire coordinates 1.6 mil only !??

so the scrap vendor gets discounts too ??? omg.... derelicts go brrrrr

I'm wondering if derelicts can now give ship parts as loot

[ashen geode]

Same on Switch and Xbox, not surprising though, we tend to be getting them later

[slim saffron]

ok great, discounts also applies to technology sell costs, so now you can sell your 480 nanite module for 14 nanite (well, at least Ares on the anomaly doesn't have a discount, so I can still sell it to them for full price)

[icy citrus]

Lol

[real cosmos]

typical hello games lol, let the players test the update, who needs to waste time testing in house ? :P

[safe kiln]

I’m assuming ship customization works exactly like staff customization

So “you can only create a new custom ship and can’t paint it directly”

[sand karma]

You can paint

[safe kiln]

Oh nice

But it’s still only for newly built ships, yeah?

[sand karma]

Correct

[prime zodiac]

Has the update been fully released yet?

[icy citrus]

Not live on Xbox, Switch or GoG - but HG announced it so it's no longer spoilers

[tepid iris]

Holy crap the trailer

🤯

[mighty rampart]

I still think the vendors take longer to access than they used to in the older stations

But at least they're now in line

[mossy sundial]

Some of these stations have ||2 multitools instead of one||

What I might appreciate most about the station update is that it feels like NPCs are walking around more, the place just feels more alive

Also maybe it's just me noticing it, or maybe it's a new thing, but you can now swap ships while docked in stations other than the Anomaly

[late tusk]

Its new yes

[alpine pasture]

No xbox update yet?

[stuck leaf]

Nope

[alpine pasture]

Damn

[gentle saffron]

Also waiting for Xbox to directly jump on a new save for all the changes 😄 now it makes sense to be headhunter with all the changes to guilds and custom fighter yeah

[fresh vigil]

Is there an eta for the Xbox update?

Wrong chat

[summer hearth]

STARSHIP CUSTOMIZATION?

[dense quartz]

Starship customization.

[summer hearth]

groovy

[gloomy isle]

That's a lot of combinations right there

Not to mention there's different textures too

[midnight stream]

any1 knows if the stat bonuses/supercharged slots are randomized on custom ships?

[desert wagon]

Starship customisation, let's fuckin gooo

[dusky gazelle]

Nice to see the Xbox getting left behind again on the updates.

[kindred temple]

go cry to microsoft

its their fault not HGs'

[brittle spoke]

Ye ngl microsoft sucks at that point

I already got my account hacked cause of that one time

[compact coyote]

What do you guys think of the update overall?

This looks absolutely peak

[analog breach]

For me its too soon to rate it. For Now im just on buying and dismatle spree to get parts

[long barn]

Dismantling gets parts?

[toxic kestrel]

does anyone know if you can use sentinel interceptor parts?

like for ship customization, im on xbox, so im still waiting to find out.

[formal remnant]

You cant, I'm hoping it's added eventually though, same with solar sail parts

[toxic kestrel]

dang, that sucks.

[formal remnant]

Yeeeeah

[toxic kestrel]

oh well, we still get ship customization.

[formal remnant]

Definitely a plus

[analog breach]

I think they will add other ship types in the future

[toxic kestrel]

fair enough, i was just wondering.

[analog breach]

Maybe they plan to refresh the ships

Thats why we cant dismantle them. Because they will get rework anyways

[toxic kestrel]

maybe, i guess we just have to wait and see.

[analog breach]

Living ships could use a refresh. in terms of tech and stats at least.

[wicked ice]

They had shuttles as a buildable ship type in the trailer, so definitely at least one more customizable ship type coming

[hazy ice]

GoG is a go

[blazing pumice]

So how does the supercharged slot thing work w the customizable ships? U gotta find a space station w the layouts or what?

[prime zodiac]

Has the update been completely releazed yetm

[blazing pumice]

Yeah, i can customize already (ps5)

[daring ore]

Custom ships are huge but let's not overlook the fact that we can now trade farmable materials for guild standing

[blazing pumice]

F that ofc im overlooking that💀

[analog breach]

There are 65 fighter parts, 72 explorer and 133 hauler parts

[blazing pumice]

Do we know about the sc slot placement yet? Is it based on the space station as i suspected?

[analog breach]

Idk

[blazing pumice]

Aw

😦

I think it is tho as ive been to 3 space stations w the same parts n its always been different slots

[prime zodiac]

How is it?
Like how much can you custimize it

[blazing pumice]

Wings, cockpit, engines, and 3 colours

[prime zodiac]

Ah

[blazing pumice]

Pretty nice, but apparently u gotta find the right space station for SC slots

(not confirmed yet)

[prime zodiac]

Hm
Ik what ill be doing then ig

[blazing pumice]

If u find square sc slots for it please tell me ill pay u😭😭

[prime zodiac]

😂if i find it i wont require pay you can just have it

[blazing pumice]

Okay thank you:)

Nah u dont understand, i love stats so i had to settle for a damn BARREL, THEY LOOK UGLY AF

[glass flare]

do we know yet whether the space station exteriors are procedural? the patch notes said the interiors were, but not sure about the outside

[analog breach]

"NO ACCESS"
sealed door?

[novel summit]

Oh that's the door for Xbox players, no access to the update

[analog breach]

Or doors for future features

[serene arrow]

hey guys ... is there a difference between ||Uploading Artemis|| or ||Allowing him to die||?

[glass flare]

I think it's just visual flair... the patch notes said that Vy'keen stations are being used to store classified tech

[analog breach]

No major gameplay changes. You dont missout any rewards

[compact coyote]

God I love the new space stations

Small thing but I really love the screens that show different art or “ads” like you would see in cities

[analog breach]

"STATION 001"

[glass flare]

do any of the old style stations still exist? I assume pirate systems have them, what about the corrupted stations?

[analog breach]

Abandoned stations should be old model

[compact coyote]

What else do the other posters say

[analog breach]

"MONOLITH"

DANGER
DANGER
DANGER
CAUTION

[glass flare]

Hm I thought from the patch notes that station interior layouts would be procedurally generated, but so far it seems like only the textures and colors are different (aside from the 3 races having unique looks)

kind of disappointing because I was looking forward to exploring big stations

[analog breach]

"GEK"

[earnest gulch]

Bruh what all the autophage send me to repair the Same guy

[surreal terrace]

He's having a bad day

[analog breach]

"TRADING AREA

[novel summit]

Who cares it's not entirely procedurally generated? They're better than what we had, I'm personally grateful for the change

[earnest gulch]

Do all the staff heads look the same? Eg the radiant heart is yellow when I make it, but it's colour is purple in my inventory

[gloomy isle]

The clutter varies too

But the indication was always that the layout was going to be the same

[dusky gazelle]

how i feel about ms being so slow to update.

screw em

[glass flare]

kind of a shame, considering they procedural layout tech they already have. ah well, they're certainly still an upgrade.

[novel summit]

I don't have the update yet but from what I see stations feel like cyberpunk districts now which is fucking awesome

[gloomy isle]

I feel like for gameplay purposes a different layout every time would be super annoying, idk

[glass flare]

yeah I didn't mean all the essential services, but just having more hallways and doors, alcoves and rooms for mainly the same purpose as Settlement procedural buildings. just to keep things interesting and not feel samey

[novel summit]

Can we stop complaining? Is it worse than what it used to be? No. It's better than what we had before, which is good enough for me

[glass flare]

yeah, I can confirm that abandoned stations are still the old 1.0 station model

[gaunt oracle]

I think that procedural space station interiors would suck from a gameplay perspective.

Needing to learn the layout of each station you visit when you will likely only visit it once isn’t very fun in my opinion.

I’m fine with sacrificing some variety there for the sake of making the game more enjoyable and streamlined.

[crude sand]

Agreed, would find it more annoying to have to look for the kiosk or location than thinking “wow the proc layout is cool”

[versed flower]

Does not matter what colours parts are in your inventory, the head you put in a terminal determines the main colour, same head in another terminal will produce a different colour, finding the right terminal that also gives the colour you want is the challenge, combining parts to mix colours is a seperate adjustment

[stuck leaf]

It doesn't bother me, I even like it. Thanks to this, the game world is more diverse and (no matter how it may sound) realistic.

[wind panther]

Yuck, the upcoming community rewards are all fireworks and posters. Nothing interesting there

[arctic bough]

Aw, is that from the files?

[wind panther]

yeah

[arctic bough]

Dang sad

As a new player, what other rewards can come from community rewards? /have come in the past

[sour fossil]

Base building elements, player titles, player banners, capes, backpacks, helmets

[sour fossil]

Enabled shuttle assembly with a mod

4 slots, core has standard 4 options for 4 classes

Fuselage / cockpit has 2 options

Hull / body has 14 options

Wings have 8 options

The shuttle assembly is currently disabled in game files, no individual assembly parts for shuttles exist. Using my mod I replaced those parts with standard substances. So for example the 2 cockpit variants can be selected by using either Carbon or Condensed Carbon (renamed to Plutonium with other mod)

In similar way I replaced the 14 parts selectors for hull and 8 parts selector for wings with common substances and those work as well

Quick preview of 14 hull models

Just realized there are some duplicates, don't know why they show up twice

And no, there isn't any data to allow assembly of other ship types

The code for shuttles was already in the game but disabled

[wind panther]

Very cool

[livid zinc]

Yes they even have it in the trailer...

[analog breach]

Where i will put all the parts. There is soo many.

[livid zinc]

Surprised they added this and no extra ship spaces

[analog breach]

I will need to use like 3 ships for parts storage

[livid zinc]

Exactly

I will be allowed to play only base game ? Or i will be allowed to play all expansions like omega or the abyss and future ones ?

Sorry for my bad english 😮‍💨

[livid zinc]

All expansions are built into the base game

[covert temple]

Ahhh ok, thank you for reply Mike .

[livid zinc]

Even the Nintendo Switch runs the game

[livid zinc]

Any links to the mod?

Or is it self made

[sour fossil]

Not released yet

[livid zinc]

Are you making it?

Only asking because I am one of those rarer shuttle fans

[sour fossil]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3006 - someone else already did

[livid zinc]

Tnx

[livid zinc]

Someone posted this pic up earlier but cannot find it now to ask what it was?

[glad kernel]

Without the mod, can it be customized in the Experimental version?

nothing in public version without the mod

[sour fossil]

Those are the new colour palettes added with the Orbital update

I would assume the space station elements take their colours from these palettes

Instead of relying on existing palettes for: trees, rocks, crystals, skies, etc

[sour fossil]

Probably not, dunno what is in the experimental version

[slim saffron]

Please don’t buy a grey market key from a key reseller

[covert temple]

Uhhh it would be my first digital buy ever for my son, so im flying blind here where to buy it...

I simply looked where is cheaper at first

[slim saffron]

If PC, get it from Steam or GoG (they are officially partnered)

The issue with grey market key resellers is that:

1. often the keys are bought with stolen credit cards (which is probably why they are so cheap)
2. it completely cuts out the developer, so they don’t get a single cent

[solar turret]

wait if If each ship part already has its own name then can u make any ship buildable with mods

[sour fossil]

No, shuttles are possible because there is data for their parts and assembly in the game, just disabled

Other ship types would need to be added manually, which is helluva task

[earnest gulch]

So what the hell are the autophage?

Korvax that disconnected themselves from something, but what

is the korvax a hive mind? 🤔

[analog breach]

No . Korvax are independent beings but have common "server" where they keep all their memories and everything

Autophages are the og korvax

From korvax prime era.

[earnest gulch]

Hmm

but it's not like everyone is able to access each other's memories? Or is it?

[analog breach]

Korvax use convergence cubes. To store historical and cultural informations.

"MONOLITH
DAMK
FRAGRANCE FOR GEK"

[wild dune]

They can upload their memories to the Convergence and other entities can see and feel through their carapace.

[earnest gulch]

oh i see

that's pretty cool

[wild dune]

When Korvax Prime was destroyed many of the korvax were disconnected and/or dead. After that Void Mother resurrected them with Atlantideum and they became autophage to gather new body parts.

[earnest gulch]

Ah so it's not like a willing disconnection, it's not like they are anti korvax. Oki

[earnest gulch]

I see a lot about this void mother everywhere but nothing in game so far

[wild dune]

From what the game suggests at least a large portion of them despise Atlas and the Korvax Convergence because they think to share a common mind is a destruction to free will.

[earnest gulch]

That's admirable

[wild dune]

It seems like you haven't got deep into the game yet.

[earnest gulch]

I've completed all the main story but a lot of it was done when i was a lot younger so

done most of the autophage stuff too but not many lore drops apart from the monolith atlantideum interaction

[analog breach]

Some bits you get from talking with autophages but u need to know the language

[wild dune]

Another case is that the game mentions a ship of korvax refuges were left to die after fleeing from their home world. They prayed to Atlas but got no response. Slowly their minds lost connection to the Convergence and something sinister(atlantideum perhaps) seeped into them.

[wild dune]

Some words like "water""purple""song"(and in some cases "glass") are direct hints of Abyssal aka Void influence. They are almost everywhere if you pay close attention to the small texts.

Yes, Sentinel ships have unique tech instead of standard tech like Pulse Engine, Hyperdrive, shields, etc

They can be upgraded using regular modules though

how do korvax sustain themselves

The Atlas is dying; it does not know precisely why.
It believes the problem lies within. It purges itself to try and remove the hypothetical problem.
The Atlas is still dying.

[wintry berry]

and the technical reason was new procgen, right?

[sand karma]

This is canon now

[novel summit]

How's the update

[cloud plume]

Quick question, when we crap a ship for parts, do we get all of the parts? like all of the wings ect... or it's random?.

[analog breach]

You chose 1 of 3. Wing, cockpit, engine

[cloud plume]

sad

are the wings both side?

[analog breach]

Depends on ship type

[cloud plume]

i assume explorer have left and right so

and other are pairs of wings

can we cut a ship in pieces and use part like for exemple on NMSGE?

[heady wyvern]

Yes, the parts you scrap from a ship are the ones you use to assemble one yourself.

[cloud plume]

of course -_-, i meant like you can break apart the wing, if the wing have multiple parts, can you do that?

or you just cut the wing of and put it inside your bagpack

[heady wyvern]

The whole wing, I'm assuming.

[analog breach]

" A ZONE THIS E(kzzzt)
123XYZ THE US(kzzzt)
ENTITIES... "

Txt on robot arm from space station

Looks like not properly placed or edited txt. And HG fought we would not notice 😆

Nms alphabet for those intrested

And now we have also " ! "

[kindred temple]

''No Man's Font''

[rustic haven]

You got '?' and '1' mixed up

and e appears to be solid in every instance i have found

[rain oriole]

he found the alphabet

[analog breach]

I know its mixed but i didint make the chart. Thx for bringing that up. I forgot to underline it.

[rustic haven]

did you find a zone 3 on the station? i saw the markers for it supposedly existing but everything was marked zone 1 or two, also the symbols indicating things aswell

[analog breach]

Didint searched for it yet

[rustic haven]

this is what im reffering to, on the bottom is zone 1 2 3, with zone 1 being indicated on the front (granted its cut off) and zone two on the back (no idea whyt they did it that way)

and the symbols also seem to line up with locations, except the middle symbol i could not find anywhere

and third floor is marked zone 2

likely is just decor and doesnt have any real significance though

and funnily enough even this decal that is intended to say "Keep Clear!" is incorrectly placed such that it seems to be mirrored as some symbals are mirrored and it reads "!raelc peek"

same on other side

so it just seems to be a fun easter egg

though it does back up the discovery of '!'

[analog breach]

There is mirrored text i few places

[wild dune]

lol written kzzzt

[analog breach]

Full mesage was translated earlier.

[modern zinc]

@analog breach darn I thought I was doing something good trying to decode it more (because all the ones on the Internet are not great) #nms-media message

But you’re many steps ahead of me!
You’ve done a lot of work on it though, so respect to you 🫡

[modern zinc]

I wish I saw this forever ago so I wouldn’t have had to waste my own time for nothing 😭 none of the ones I searched up on Google were complete, but this one is perfect! I have no clue how you got J, Q, and Z, how did you figure those out?

I don’t mean this is a negative way; I’m starting to draw nms stuff more and I needed a cypher to help me with the font, which is why I’m sad and upset at myself that I didn’t think to ask here if such a key existed here

[analog breach]

I found it somewhere in internet. almost completed alphabet. Missing JQZ sounds like some old version.

Community figured most of it from decoding posters

[modern zinc]

Well, it’s the version that I made
I looked online and combined them all and fact checked it, I had to add a couple of letters but I’m still missing those

But I think I figured out at least 0-3 and ! With the new update

[analog breach]

There is poster with numbers

There was also few coded messages from Sean itself

There was site with alphabet and example where every letter was found but i cant find it somehow. Maybe it was puted down.

[modern zinc]

I don’t have that poster, I’m guessing it’s an expedition reward?

And I don’t exactly have social media platforms except for YouTube, so I wouldn’t see his messages 😞

Maybe you can ask to have your font key pinned so people can find it and use it!

[fiery pawn]

So

I'm at the moment where I need to chose what to do with Artemis what did you guys do ?

[sour fossil]

It's up to you, there are no consequences from either choice

The NPCs in the game will accept it anyway

I put them to rest, they had enough of suffering

[fiery pawn]

Ha oh thx thought there were consequences for my choices

[sour fossil]

I mean there are consequences of NPCs acknowleding what you did

Game will not penalize you either way

[woeful knoll]

So is it true that NPCs now keep saying 14?

[jolly vault]

Saw this on reddit as well, and I think it's just a meme. No need to worry.

[elfin pagoda]

I will be learning this now thank you

[analog breach]

So there is no vendor with crossed flags 🎌 in the new stations. For now this update feels like a patch to omega.

[dusky kernel]

who voices telamon?

[proven aurora]

So bascially the void mother wants to save everyone by defeating the atlas

the atalas has an error and is trying to fix it by resetting the universe each time the walls fall

@teal echo

[teal echo]

Ok, and how does siding with her make Atlas evil?

[proven aurora]

thats what the relm of glass is for, the void mother i think is trying to arcive everything

yeah

becuase according to her the atlas is lazy and doesnt care

doesnt care about the fate of the universe

void mother is the ai from the korvax prime core btw

[vast delta]

so whats the significance of 16? i get that its the ||number of minutes until the atlas dies|| but is there anything else significant about it?

[dense quartz]

I wonder why they're making it a point to talk about the engine being improved where it allows them to render the space station interiors.
Wasn't the engine upgraded in one of the Echoes patches last year?
And isn't the space anomaly interior like 50 times larger in size to the current station interiors?
The whole thing is a little confusing to me.

[sour fossil]

Havoc physics engine was updated during Echoes

Game engines are not monolithic constructs, they have modules focusing on different tasks

And those can be upgraded independently

I wouldn't say Space Anomaly is bigger per se. It's a fixed map (without procedurally generated features), with sections which rendering can be toggled on and off

[spice sky]

Can you do anything with Echo Seeds now?

[wild dune]

but the Void kills

she created the abyssal horrors and biological horrors

[mental wing]

Okay, I'm sure this has been asked, anything new I need to start saving? I'm on Xbox, so no update yet. Figured I'd clean out my storage inventories and sell a bunch of stuff. Anything rare I should keep?

[jolly vault]

Keep ships with parts you want to use to build your own. Limited to fighter, hauler, and explorer.

I might go hunting to build my own golden alpha vector once the update drops on Xbox.

[sand karma]

Actually this message might be more suited here, butttt

Interesting little tidbit I haven't seen discussed yet. Apparently Sean Murray was removed as "a person of significant control" of HG. Replaced with a new company of theirs called Hello Future. Have we seen any other info about this? https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/06663645/filing-history

Apparently an entity that dates back to early last year https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/14598239

[glad kernel]

I seem unable to access this website...

[sand karma]

Hmm, shouldn't be region-locked. It's gov.uk 😄

Unrelated question, but anyone ever found out how/when/where these pop-up? All I can find are some Reddit threads of other people who have no idea. 😄

Ah found one thread with a few people who saw 1 or 2. That's about it though. They've never popped for me yet. 😛

[sullen topaz]

i never get to be offered a mission on a planetary settlement

[dense quartz]

I dunno if it's based on exhausting the first interaction type, I just assume they show up randomly, either you get the standard interaction or the new mission type.

I think I only ever got them to trigger at one of the outposts with a landing pad.. and in the Omega trailer we also see that mission started from an outpost that has a landing pad.

[ashen geode]

Does anyone know the content of today's update? I know it's most likely a patch but do we have any release note?

[sand karma]

Yeah, not sure, I'm still down to zero :3

[sand karma]

Nope. Last patchnotes we have is yesterday's "Fixed a hang on PC."

[sour fossil]

I've found one in some random observatory

Dunno what triggered it

[ashen geode]

I see, thank you! They just posted it not so long ago after our messages

[arctic bough]

hm is that not just the normal missions?

[sand karma]

These are triggered by NPCs on planets

Very rare though apparently

[arctic bough]

yeah but i've had those before the update as well

[sand karma]

Oh yeah, it's from the previous update

But not very common still

[arctic bough]

ohhh okay

[dense quartz]

Yeah they were added in Omega.

[dense quartz]

Experimental branch has this in it's patch notes:

Frigate commanders now delegate freighter liaison duties to the first lieutenant

What does it mean?

[heady wyvern]

Liaison, noun:
"communication or cooperation which facilitates a close working relationship between people or organizations."

Presumably, your First Lieutenant will now serve as your point of contact with any frigates out on expedition.

[dense quartz]

Oh interesting. 🤔

[radiant cobalt]

||Was the only way to get rid of these 3 missions, to restart?

• The Space Anomaly
• New Beginnings
• Atlas Eternal||

[sand karma]

I'm guessing that means no one has any Hello Future tidbits? 👀

[sand karma]

I think so. Maybe you can save edit on PC though

[radiant cobalt]

Do I get new ones after?

[runic mesa]

||You don't get rid of them. They're permanent, open missions.||

[arctic bough]

well space anomaly isn't

it's gone for me

[torpid cave]

any cool stuff datamined that's not available yet (other than the shuttles)

[dense quartz]

It'd be funny if we get buildable shuttles in a patch rather than a whole new content update. As if they simply forgot to tick a box to enable them before release.

[sour fossil]

No, there is more to do than just flip a switch

There are no shuttle parts items declared in the item table

So HG would need to add those as well

[dense quartz]

Oh I see. I thought that was the case since a mod enables shuttles in the fabricator, and I think the author said it's hardcoded for only 4 ships to be edited.

[sour fossil]

Correct

The file that handles the assembly lists has 5 hardcoded positions, 1 for the staves and 4 for ship types

The ugly thing here is that ModularCustomisationConfigs is an enumerated data type - meaning it's a set of fixed values in fixed order

We can't add or remove options from that list, so all we can do is hijack the currently unused section for shuttles

And then modify the ever loving heck out of it to replace all stuff for shuttles with stuff for other ship types

[analog breach]

At least thats something

If it had only 4 then modders could not do much.

But seeing shuttle there makes me cofident that HG wanted to add shuttles or at least have/had that in plan

[sour fossil]

They had something planned

Because apart from that logic, they prepared the icons, titles and descriptions for actual parts

The actual items you could put in inventory on in fabricator slots were missing

But since we had a template of any fighter / explorer / hauler part, it was an easy job to prepare such items for shuttles

[sour fossil]

New experimental, no changes to files responsible for ship assembly

[dense quartz]

Has it been figured out what determines which guild is present in the space station?

[last pelican]

Last night I was playing through the story when I was transported to another planet somewhere else by way of a strange portal. Upon arriving, the planet itself was amazing. Bubbles everywhere, strange terrain formations I've never seen. I was actually looking forward to exploring this place. Then, some text popped up on screen saying something about the atlas said the place was hostile and yoinked me off the planet and put me somewhere else. Clearly scripted story and I don't want to have it spoiled too much, but what happened with that? Will I ever see that place again in the game? Hostile sounded fun tbh.

[sour fossil]

It was an exotic biome planet

Those spawn all over the galaxy, you can distinguish them by having Gold listed on the scan card

There's like a dozen of types, each with their own wacky flora and minerals

[last pelican]

I have no idea what that means. Like, if it shows gold as one of the mining resources?

What made it so hostile that the atlas was like "nope"?

To yank me out of a planet after visiting a few dozen that are trying to burn me alive at 700 degrees with worms the size of sky scrapers flying around, it must be pretty crazy

[sour fossil]

Have you played past that? Talked to the final Atlas Interface about || reset || ?

If yes then you will learn what is the true nature of this reality

[last pelican]

I saw something about ||multiple realities and universes in other planes of existence|| but I haven't really gone much beyond that. I just recently did the whole ||mind ark|| thing for Artemis but that's about it

[last pelican]

.

[sour fossil]

The reality is that the whole universe is a simulation conducted by Atlas

[last pelican]

Don't tell me it's going to go the ||matrix path and tell my we are all existing in a computer program like Artemis|| or something lol

Oh no...

[sour fossil]

Atlas is dying, it has 16 minutes of its time left and we have the option to reset it

And those weird planets can be artifacts, glitches in that simulation

[last pelican]

Interesting.

Kinda cliche but in a weird way, not. I guess.

Honestly the story is kinda cryptic and being completely told via text I find my ADD self having trouble paying attention to the finer details. May need to replay it one day

I messed up on my first trip to the atlas and didn't grab all the little language bubbles all over the area. Not that it would have given me extreme enlightenment compared to what I have now but it would have been nice to have.

[sour fossil]

Wouldn't help really, there's over 200 words in Atlas' language

You'd need to do some other things to learn it before visiting the Atlas stations

[last pelican]

Is it even possible to learn it all in a fashion that allows you to view its complete dialogue?

[gusty berry]

not from a jedi

[wild dune]

Surely a bit of cliche but there's some hint of existentialism in it if you pay attention to the dialogues.

"Existence is beautiful, if you let it be. Life is not a question. There does not need to be an answer."

[carmine topaz]

@tender sparrow Well, ||The entire climax of the game is discovering the A T L A S will die in 16, could be 16 minutes or 16 years. Either way, there's nothing you can do. So you have a choice; reset the simulation or enjoy the time remaining. Resetting means exactly that, starting over in a new instance||

[tender sparrow]

I thought it was like story stuff. The game was not clear it was gonna break my stuff or I would have brought a beater

[last pelican]

Sounds like a quote you'd find on a motivation poster at a Nike office. "Just do it" essentially.

[fresh crow]

I’ve done 5 so far and they all seem to be triggered after using that very tall save point/waypoint thing. It points your camera to a house logo that either says minor settlement or small settlement (I forget which). So far the ones I’ve done just had me scan flora and minerals.

[fresh crow]

Was this the gek or korvax cartographer?

[wild dune]

I've done one featuring a gek asking me to plant gamma roots in the soil.

[wild dune]

the korvax cartographer, after showing us the history.

[fresh crow]

Thanks! Hated the Gek afterwards, -null- is dead to me. I’m sorry I couldn’t do more for you Artie!

[dense quartz]

I'll never understand why people hate the current Gek for what their ancesters did.
It's like having actual deep hatred towards Germans today for ww2.. Who does that?

Even the Gek who shows you their past is very uncomfortable about it and asks you not to judge them for something they haven't done and ends with saying he doesn't want to think about it and just wants to trade and be happy.

Even a log in an archive says about 4% of Gek are interested in learning about their history and basically none of them like it.

[grave ferry]

||so whats the difference between the different systems that you can go to after resetting atlas?||

[sour fossil]

It's not systems, it's whole galaxies

4 different types, each type has different % chance of spawning specific biomes in yellow star systems

[grave ferry]

so green is just overall a little easier and has more rare planet spawns in yellow star systems? are other colored systems affected?

oh nvm i see the chart on the wiki

ty for the info

[covert oriole]

|| So I'm doing the Expanding Base Staff quest and I can't find the overseer in the space station. Ik B4 the update there was a room and it had every one of the NPCs you'd need, but it's not there now so im lost lol ||

[analog breach]

Mark the quest. It should mark a system. Overseer should be in a space station. He is always a gek.

[dense quartz]

In the trailer video and some screenshots you can see the portal used to be at the stairs.
I'm really happy they moved it to where it is now. 😄

[sour fossil]

"racing shop" icon / hologram is still in the game files lol

[nocturne zephyr]

racing would be fun in space and on planetary surfaces if we were given a bunch of obstacles and stuff to set up. Imagine being able to set up a dirt path on a planet through valleys and forests and such. I think this would be a worthy major update

[median heart]

What happenes if I refused the atlas

[uncut harness]

I just completed the Atlas path and now I'm a slave for the Atlas? I thought I was making a new galaxy

[sour fossil]

If you submit to the Atlas, a new star will be created

Though it's just a flavour text, no actual solar system is created

After that, Atlas Path gets replaced with Atlas Eternal, where you can upload wonders data to Atlas stations

In return for nanites and words of Atlas

[uncut harness]

I thought it sent you to a new galaxy?

[dusky kernel]

you're thinking of the purge

[hot niche]

Yeah that’s the Artemis path which gets very sad near the end

[dusky kernel]

yes I was sad.... when I picked the green one and it was orange
those days are behind me

[glass flare]

from the latest experimental patch notes: Added a sign to indicate the location of the teleporter within the space station.

seems like maybe the original location would have not needed a sign

[dense quartz]

Yeah I'm surprised they feel the need to point out where the portal is.

You can find it by exploring lol

[cloud jolt]

@dense quartz

No stickers in this channel please

[dense quartz]

Actually.. I dont know if they mean a waypoint on the hud or an actual sign like the vendors have.

[dense quartz]

Thanks, I fat fingered that one lol.

[proud helm]

if respawning is canon why did null have to steal the lifeforce of other travellers instead of just dying and respawning

[wild dune]

because respawning is not canon

the traveller who was killed and came back again in one of the crashed freighter log seems to be 90% likely -null-

||Artemis|| died and ||Apollo would have some kind of suicidal thought|| if you choose one of the dialogue options (or 2/3 of the dialogues I believe) during the purge quest.

[analog breach]

In greek mythology artemis and apollo are twins.

[wild dune]

That sounds like a fair reason why both of them (plus their parent Leto) died lol

[ashen geode]

Where do you get the patch notes? I am interested

||it's 16 secondes for the atlas, but how long in the simulation? we don't know||

[honest hamlet]

Any idea what the next update is going to be about?

[heady wyvern]

The last update was only a couple weeks ago. There's no way for us to tell at this time.

[honest hamlet]

Yea but the hype channel got recently archived

Don’t that mean an update is coming

[heady wyvern]

Nope, it means that whatever update the hype channel was opened for has passed.

HG hasn't said anything about an update, so we can't know much of anything.

[honest hamlet]

I was kind of hoping it was new xocraft as it showed a new exo craft

It may be mods though…… wait I can mod?? Where do I get mods😇

[weary bridge]

I need help understanding some lore and it counts as a spoiler. Should I ask here?

Or should I ask in nms-help?

[waxen zodiac]

very disappointed that I need to make a new save for the new Atlas Path technology; I want it on the same one as my Cartographers ship

[weary bridge]

Wait... What new Atlas Path technology?

||I only know about the Heart of the Sun||

[waxen zodiac]

As of Omega there's an alternative to the ||Star Seed|| called the ||Mark of the Denier|| for refusing at the end, but it's only available if you haven't already finished

[weary bridge]

Dang it

Well. I don't mind starting a new save. Maybe I should do survival

[waxen zodiac]

I checked one of my other saves but that one doesn't seem to have any trace of the Atlas Path left

I also have over 100 hours on this one already, plus those irreplaceable ship techs

it's always the seemingly little things like these that create uncertainty about my attachment to the game for me

of course, it's only because the story already means so much to me that things like that can have that effect

[wild dune]

maybe ask me though

[waxen zodiac]

Looks like I fixed this, just needed to ask for Atlas Station coordinates and the quest reappeared

[dusky kernel]

oh cool I've been cited on the nms wiki for that one purge thing I did, that's kinda sick

[pulsar grove]

210hrs in this game and i still haven't managed to work out how to finish the 3 main missions in the game and its doing my head in

[heady wyvern]

What's your log looking like?

[vital lava]

Guys when I reset the simulation, what do the different galaxies mean

[dusky kernel]

cyan is your generic galaxy, dark blue is more dead and exotic planets, green is more lush, and red is full of extreme planets

[long barn]

I wonder what the next update will be about considering stations have been added and are beautiful

[white edge]

I finished the Artemis path and tried to be a little different this time than previous saves but I didn't know that affected whether or not you could choose a new galaxy and now I'm very sad I didn't get to :C

[wild dune]

I assume that you chose to refuse the Atlas and walk away?

[white edge]

yeah 😭

[dense quartz]

Added a distinct icon for fleet expeditions on the galaxy map.
Don't frigate expeditions already show those?
I'm not on experimental so I dunno if they're any different now.

[sturdy sorrel]

anything interesting found in this update?

datamining wise

[dense quartz]

Not really datamined but you can see that there's unused rooms in the space stations that are blocked off by doors on the third floor and below the back stairs.
People speculate it's for possible future expansions.

[dusky kernel]

...huh? well I have a new thing to check

[analog breach]

These ones

[dusky kernel]

I have photo mode clipped behind the walls right now

...I knew it. they wouldn't give up on side rooms like that

my question is if the various stations will use all of them, or only some on each one for that spicy variety

[waxen zodiac]

You can always do it the "hard" way (not actually that hard if you can find portals, just tedious)

[wild dune]

type in glyph 11111 in case of emergency

[iron vine]

Yo whats the new update

2 GB update with no info

Also 5.52 GB patch?

[waxen zodiac]

There are patch notes for an update today linked in #nms-announcements – that's probably what you're looking for

[iron vine]

Ah, thats it. Thanks

[analog breach]

Bugfixes

[ember grotto]

i ask how long it going until the end of the atlas?

i hear it all coming to end something like that

[analog breach]

16min

[gray leaf]

Anyone has seen or know what's coming next on the QS shop?

Community mission

[sour fossil]

Current list looks like this

3 decals, 3 fireworks, 3 posters, 3 fireworks again

[analog breach]

No ice statues?

[sour fossil]

Ice status are the current round

They showed up yesterday

First set of decals

[analog breach]

I fought the first decals are still up

Thx

[sour fossil]

1st set of fireworks:

This exotic firework, tinted with <substance> salts, is inspired by the undulating form of the titanic sandworm. Ignite to create glittering displays in the sky.

3 posters

[analog breach]

What are those cubes on the food poster? I dont think we can make it.

[sour fossil]

Processed Sugar or something like that?

[analog breach]

Wait . It could be cocoa

[sour fossil]

Anyway, 2nd set of fireworks:

This exotic firework, sparkling with <substance> and antimony elements, bursts into a cluster of wildly spiralling ribbons. Ignite to create glittering displays in the sky.

Lol one of fireworks mentions zinc

[analog breach]

New element confirmed lol 🥳

[sour fossil]

Zinc was in the game on release

Later replaced with Ferrite I think

[analog breach]

I wonder if that firework description is that old

But I dont think so tho

[sour fossil]

Nah, prolly HG not caring

[analog breach]

But it would be cool if HG expanded the element table with new stuf to farm/craft/refine

[sour fossil]

Like they put Thamium9 in planet mineral composition in Exploration Guide

[gray leaf]

ty but i was wondering about the one thats going to be unlocked tho
asking if someone datamined or seen something

meaning the new one still in progress

[sour fossil]

Anyone has seen or know what's coming next on the QS shop?

what's coming next

The current research is for 3 ice statues, started yesterday

You can hover on the item in QS shop, read all the descriptions

You can assume how it will look like since it's just another fighter / atlas / diplo statue like the ones we had before

Dunno what's more there to learn about these statues

[gray leaf]

i never realise they could be seen there

thanks

[waxen zodiac]

Looking back at the Atlas Path and They Who Returned, I think I know what choices I'm most comfortable with but don't know about starting a new save for it, especially with non-transferable stuff (Photonix Core, Cartographers ship, old base part blueprints) all stuck in different existing saves

[iron idol]

Does anyone know what the drop rate is for Echo scanners to find dissodent camps?

[sour fossil]

20%

[iron idol]

From dissident sentinels and alike right? (:

I killed like 40 of them, 0 drops >.>

[sour fossil]

20% from Dissonance Resonators, the drills

1% from actual Sentinel spider drones

[iron idol]

Aaah

Ty

[vast ridge]

Will squadron and freighter do some good combat in the future?

[heady wyvern]

We don't know, but my hopes aren't high.

[peak comet]

If you get close to the Dissonance Resonators you can tell whether or not they have inverted mirrors or the echo locator. You have too look towards it base. Fly low and slow in your ship

[hot niche]

When you are resetting the galaxy/ going to a new galaxy, when null and everyone try to get you to stop, it’s really heartbreaking to me, them not wanting everything they’ve done be for nothing. Somehow a game that tells its story though text has my favorite story

[long barn]

That made me wanna do it more to be honest, I was like 'You're not the main character any more kid' and made a new galaxy

Also deleted Artemis since they died to what I can only call a skill issue

[wild dune]

but null is a a-hole so, duh

[loud coral]

A new beginnings, what do I lose if I do it?

[uncut harness]

Is there a reason so many of the base quests have such screwed up storylines?

I sort of already know the general premise of the universe we're "existing" in in NMS is it just a repetition of the themes of the overarching main* story? Or is there more to take away from them?

[ruby rock]

Ok so too go through the core make sure u go to a portal and type this glyph until u can’t anymore it will put you 5000 or so light years away u want to then travel until u can’t and make sure ur warp drive is all the way and u have the diffrent types or drives u got from the story

[bitter bough]

||Do I remember need to go through 16 black holes to get to the ending?||

[tame grotto]

? No. Also no need for spoiler tags in this channel. If you need help with the quest, don't hesitate to also check #nms-questions. And try running !Faq-ArtemisPath in #bot-spam

[bitter bough]

I ended up finding coords that brought my lightyear count down to 4 digits 😅

[wild dune]

It's just depressing

[karmic jackal]

I got living frigate questline :D

[analog breach]

There are 3 ice statues in qs shop but 4 community reaserch tiers? Hmmm

[hot niche]

He changed his ways after he committed his atrocities. He genuinely did not want that to be for nothing. Apollo is trash

[wild dune]

null said "You don't deserve it (to go to the center)" to me 😔

Apollo after realized the nature of Atlas asked us if their life of pursuing wealth is meaningless. The game encourages the player to reply they don't know the answer to that.

[wild dune]

hello null's alt account, you look chill today 😉

No wonder why null got kicked out by sweet sweet Atlas

[compact swan]

Does the story of NMS ever become... coherent? I mean, I'm not saying I don't like it, but a lot of the dialogue just doesn't make much sense.

[wild dune]

The story is pretty coherent for me

[noble sinew]

It's meant to be scattered so the individual player gets to think of the gaps and stuffs

[gray leaf]

It's not presented in a linear narrative. (Neither does it really have a story per se, with beggining and end)
The player gets plopped into the world and slowly uncovers the past, the present, its mysteries and historical events.
Some environmental story telling through digital logs and NPC dialogue.
These are even present and expanded in both side missions, and simple game content that isn't even part of missions.
Following only the main story line gives an idea, but its not the whole picture.

[dire drum]

So, NMS does have a coherent story…ish. A lot of the history and past of the game is found in the lore, and players need to do their best to interpret what’s given to them

[gray leaf]

I love how a lot of the quests and story are basically references to the history and development of NMS itself 😄

[dire drum]

A lot of the lore is extremely dark, especially relating to derelicts and the First Spawn

For example, Protogeks are actually descendants of the First Spawn, who were cast out and de-evolved as punishment for treason

And derelicts/crashed freighters offer insight into the day to day lives of the NPCs. I found a log reporting that a Vykeen crewman was sentenced to five days in the brig for “inappropriate use of a cabin”

I found a crashed freighter that talked about the family structure of the three (technically four, the narrator is presumably an Anomaly/human) races

[compact swan]

The only character I've come across who speaks plainly and answers questions with a direct answer is a cyborg, and to a lesser extent, Artemis.

[dire drum]

Characters rarely speak directly, but lore entries tend to have more detail

[wild dune]

Well, you can just ask me if you have any question

I think Nada speaks plainly as well. They just don't talk like human

[compact swan]

I know a lot of humans who don't even talk like humans.

[dire drum]

…have you considered that it’s because they’re not human?

[wild dune]

I was explaining to the other one there

[wild dune]

What confuses you the most, NPC talking nonsense? implicit Main quest line? or concepts in lore that you don't understand? (For me it's getting regular sleeps lol

[compact swan]

The ship diagnostic dialogue makes the most sense. 😛

IS IT FIRST? IS IT LAST? I don't know. I'll pick a random option.

[wild dune]

The first means -null- the first traveller ever created, the last means all travellers merged into one form to witness the death of Atlas

all travellers are but one soul shattered and distributed into the body of countless.

so technically the first traveller and the last traveller are the same entity

[mossy sundial]

Do Gemini and Hesperus ||actually do anything||

Or is ||their entire plot and personality just being happy to see you||

[dense quartz]

Someone on reddit posted this as a bug.
I'm surprised it's even possible to get to this screen since base parts don't have damaged states or repair screens.

[snow bronze]

Asking about staff multitool: ||I'm at the part of the autophage quest where I'm making my staff. It came out as a C class multitool. Is there a way to get an S class?||

[noble sinew]

You should be able to upgrade the class at a normal multi tool station in satellites

[tame oyster]

I have a theory The Atlas let Korvax Prime get destroyed in every universe because it's trying to recreate the creation of the Abyss for itself in the "real" world and survive whatever is going to destroy it

[gray leaf]

i just don't think the atlas would intervene regardless.
it has no concepts of right or wrong.
It simply created. it created things in balance.

[solid fulcrum]

is there a way to reset the sim after refusing the first time?

and how do i do dat

[heady wyvern]

There's no real way to do the "Final Interface" event after you've rejected it. Technically, that's what you're doing when you warp into the Core, but then you don't have the choice between the four galaxy types - you'll just go to the next galaxy in the line.

[solid fulcrum]

damn can i go back to an old save lol

[heady wyvern]

If one exists (very unlikely).

[solid fulcrum]

thats a no then, oh well, is there any real advantage to one of the endings?

[heady wyvern]

Not really

There's always StarCabs if you wanna get somewhere specific fast.

[solid fulcrum]

whats that

[solid fulcrum]

so im trying to use a save file editor to go back to the start of the purge mission and im using this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/c97ud4/how_to_go_back_and_reset_simulation_or_go_to_any/

but it's not working, would anyone be able to give me a hand please

[gray leaf]

tbh this is the wrong channel for any of this 😄

!starcablink @solid fulcrum

[cloud jolt]

@solid fulcrum https://discord.gg/WgUdnbZJjh

[gray leaf]

since you asked

for help save editing try to post in #nms-modding

[solid fulcrum]

ah thank you haha

[proud helm]

so fellas, what do you think of synth gek? do you despise them as much as regular gek?

[opal ore]

no

because they are just korvax in disguise

[proud helm]

what about anomalies with the first spawn battlemask?

[trail cosmos]

does the game crash more often on dissonent planet?
cause my game crashed 4 times already when trying to find an echo locator, heck the the youtuber's video i was watching crashed as well

[proud helm]

the sentinels trapped in those adlantidium crystals were pissed that you were mining them so they crashed your game

[wild dune]

Maybe we are Atlas...and they want to revenge

[proud helm]

what did the atlas do to the sentinels though?

[wild dune]

the corrupted sentinels are influenced by the Void Mother

and Void Mother is trying to expand their(her?) force to places that are formerly under Atlas' control

and basically void mother says atlas is useless and dying, I am the real god and you should all believe in me

[wild dune]

if u r interested in this bit of lore just let me know XD

[proud helm]

aren't the uncorrupted sentinels trying to move all things to the world of glass before the death of the atlas?

[wild dune]

yes, it's their job.

[wild dune]

have you read all the sentinel pillar entries?

[proud helm]

not all of them yet

[short jolt]

I've been watching the excellent Lore videos by Ghost Light on YouTube. Loved filling in the lack of comprehension on my part, and it really has got me thinking about what's to come in NMS in the future. One thing I wanted to ask about was the references to the Void and Void Mother. Do we know if the Living Ship Void eggs are linked to the Void Mother in any way, or is it just a coincidence?

[wild dune]

Void eggs are probably a failed attempt to bring back Void Mother (aka Korvax Prime

[wild dune]

There are also an entry about crews killing a traveller who came back to life again. I'm 99% sure that it was null since it features the traveller saying they made terrible mistakes

[analog breach]

Void and music theme in nms are connected. (Melody egg, void egg descriptions, void mother sings in one of the autophage monolith visions)

(ARG hidden messages in sound samples)

[short jolt]

I've not gone down the ARG route yet - you do you have any links that explain that side of things?

[analog breach]

#nms-arg-2023

[wild dune]

You don't have to. It's all described in game

[lofty acorn]

I've come back after a little while, what triggers the new freighter battle? I assume it's the same as before with the other freighters?
I messed up first chance.

[sour fossil]

If you mean the pirate dreadnoughts, then the same way as regular freighters + 2 conditions

One, you need to own a freighter already

Two, you need to trigger the freighter battle in high conflict or outlaw controlled system

1st link as a remined to regular freighter farming

[lofty acorn]

Ah I see, thankyou very much!

[foggy locust]

🪐 🤯 🔥

[proud helm]

no autophage emojis smh

[hoary steeple]

tough choice

purple is a mood but +1 health is nice

which is more efficient to learn words and stuff

or are they the same

[sour fossil]

None of them affect the efficiency of learning words

earning nanites in any way charges this technology

That is straight up false

The description mentions player has to discover stuff like solar systems, planets, minerals, flora and fauna

20 discoveries for a full charge

players are awarded with Atlas words & Nanites, or very rarely quicksilver

Also false, there is no QS awarded from presenting wonders to Atlas as part of Atlas Eternal

The only currency awarded are Nanites, Quicksilver would be noted as name="Currency" value="Specials"

[twilit ocean]

The only thing that gives/gave quicksilver iirc is the stellar ice event

Amything else is in anomaly or expeditions

[sour fossil]

The ending of Atlas Path also rewards QS

Interacting with every pillar for the 10 Atlas Seeds gives player 100 QS if memory serves right

[wild dune]

is this a new mechanic

[sour fossil]

Yeah was added with Omega update

[analog breach]

I really hate that i cant restart atlas path on my main save.

To see whats new and grab any new lore logs.

[runic mesa]

Same. I'm going to run through it again on a former exped file just to get the title associated with Mark of the Denier.

[hoary steeple]

aight thanks

[manic arrow]

why I don't see Star seed recipe and what it used for?

[heady wyvern]

Star Seed is a technology unlocked for accepting the Atlas at the end of the Atlas Path. It grants +1 Health and something else that I've forgotten.

[manic arrow]

just finished atlas path, now the purge, then I need to go through dissonance planet quests and then I can get this cool multi tools right?

❔ **Stuck starting the Echoes content?**

Make sure the steps below are completed.

⚠️ Use #bot-spam for FAQ commands below & check #nms-questions for the latest details about the update.

1. Finish the Artemis Path (main story). Run !Faq-ArtemisPath in #bot-spam.
2. Lift the Seal from a Harmonic Camp. Run !Faq-Interceptor in #bot-spam.
3. Warp to any system -- if that triggers a freighter battle, you must warp again.

❗ This information has been verified as of <t:1694212090:D> (after Update 4.44) & is subject to change.

With update 4.44, completion of the mission, A Trace of Metal is no longer required. A Settlement used to be needed -- except on Switch, where you'd have to trigger it by warping 25 times.

📚 Contributors: Atlas Emissaries & friendlyfirepl

[manic arrow]

yup

[heady wyvern]

Have you done anything about Harmonic Camps yet?

[manic arrow]

what else in this echoes except multi tools?

[manic arrow]

nope

[heady wyvern]

Then you do not yet qualify to accept Those Who Returned

[manic arrow]

OK, I need to land on dissonance planet and I'll figure it out right? :)

[heady wyvern]

You'll see. Just continue on your way, interloper.

[heady wyvern]

Right. Hopefully.

[manic arrow]

I will, adventures will get me there sooner or later. It's enough to know that game will tell me about new content. Cya, traveler! Thanks!

[solemn stirrup]

-null- sort of made himself an Autophage to live forever, which is why he references his appearance and how he shouldn't exist. He was a Traveller that was meant to be wiped.

[hoary steeple]

interesting

I wonder what he actually did

that terrible thing

[strong geyser]

Killed travelers

Basically took their souls

[floral rain]

What if you die?
In The mission a leap in the dark where you go through the Portal to find artemis, when you're transported to the atlas and it sends you back your ship is damaged, and if you pay attention there's a distress beacon and junk and such surrounding our mysteriously broken ship. What if when the player went through the Portal for artemis you die? Also distress beacons only appear at crashed sites, and there's a log available, usually indicating some form of fatal circumstance.

[wild dune]

There's a hint somewhere that says the player is saved by Atlas

[knotty mountain]

Soooo lots of internal and experimental builds, is it all just patches? Been a bit since a public branch update

[glass flare]

all the experimental builds we've seen since the last update have just had bugfix patch notes. I don't think it's anything more than that. but I'm sure they're working on the next one

has anything interesting been datamined from the stations update?

[wanton birch]

Can anyone tell me if the upgrades to the exosuit carry over into the next universe?

[heady wyvern]

Yes

Your everything does

[scarlet belfry]

||thamium9iscool||

[dense quartz]

I turned down the Atlas and then accepted it.
Ended up with both of these items.. and the mission log screen can only display 3 primary missions so the 4th one, that shouldn't be there, is hidden between the primary and secondary mission logs. Only way for me to get to it is to blindly scroll for it.
Quite an oversight.

I really wonder if the added Atlas Path missions will be expanded upon, cause it seems like a random addition to just leave it like it is now.
If it does get expanded, I'm worried my save might get messed up. 😅

[hoary steeple]

same

sometimes it shows the second atlas path and sometimes it shows new beginnings for me

and I have to scroll to whichever is hidden

[pearl stirrup]

I don’t know if it’s a spoiler or not, but that planet where the weekend event is…wow, it’s vertical. Could barely find a place to land or summon my ship to leave! On the upside, was some of the best & most fun Nomad boosting I’ve done.

[lost quartz]

The dangerous flora mission for the Nexus?

[pearl stirrup]

Yeah.

[fiery coral]

F in the chat for me. I made it to the galactic core for the first time, remembered what happened the last time I swapped galaxies, changed my multitool, got out an old ship annnnnd... Forgot to take off my exosuit modules. Time to hear "Component Repaired" for the next twenty minutes.

Also, "Yes, I would like to give me all the wiring looms you have. Now, wait just a second. I worry you may have heard 'I want a lot of wiring looms.' What I said was, 'Give me all the wiring looms you have.'"

[leaden spire]

Does the atlas eternal quest line have an end?

[fiery coral]

Haven't exactly tested, but I'm pretty sure it's just repeatable so you can get all the atlas words.

[leaden spire]

Ahh alright thank you

[hoary steeple]

it's called Atlas Eternal for a reason

[heady rain]

No a quick google search y’all get faster results

[runic mesa]

So... we never did get part 4 of the Interceptor/Singularity/Echos storyline, did we?

[strong geyser]

"As I boot up the operations terminal a hologram of a spacecraft going through a catastrophic planetary descent is beamed into my visor. It's clear that it's on an express elevator to hell. The impact with the planet's surface is made to look tiny. In truth, the impact crater could be vast."

sent me to a small shuttle

"The pilot lies dead besides a short circuiting control panel that sparks intermittently. Beside the dead robotic navigator hovers a Sentinel that nudges the deceased lifeform, almost as if to wake it."

"As I approach the floating machine fires a warning in my direction."

[dusky kernel]

I'd post this in #no-mans-sky but ....ehh.
every form of the atlas I've seen. never seen the sixth before, wondering if that's the only new addition or not

[uncut harness]

Cook

[normal edge]

Question about the end of atlas path, are there any downsides to choosing to create the star?

[icy citrus]

No

[narrow solar]

i kinda like to be brave in my playthroughs and take chances so i chose to create a star

[digital monolith]

Is the Alta’s seed (the exosuit upgrade that allows you to safely travel through wormholes) that you get after building all those orbs remembrance?

Its not called remembrance but it’s an exosuit upgrade just the same

If it is then why do people call it remembrance? If it’s not what am I missing because now I just give random stuff to atlas for nanites.. so I’m not sure how to take the atlas seed and turn it into remembrance

[sour fossil]

You get Star Seed when you finish Atlas Path and submit to Atlas at the end

You get Rememberance when you finish Artemis Path

Those are 2 different exosuit techs and neither has any relation to black holes

Since long time travelling through a regular black hole does not break any tech anymore

[viral pier]

ok so a friend is doing permadeath for the achivement
he went to the atlas station direcly instead of fully following artemis path and now it's changed to "enjoy the galaxy", he's not seeing the restart simulation option.

I think he rejected the Atlas, he's literally been warping for 8 hours to stations since because he doesn't know what he chose and I have no idea if he's softlocked or hardlocked out of the achievement. He has the remembrance but he's still in Euclid.

[heady wyvern]

His only choice at this point is to get to the Core.

He passed up the opportunity to do the Final Interface event, now he's gotta do it the long way

If he goes to a portal and inputs a whole bunch of times, though, it should drop him fairly close.

[viral pier]

he's actually already 4k lightyears away so he's just jumping to it right now

[vital lava]

Is the sixth the last one

Because that’s the one I’m on rn

[dusky kernel]

are you on a quest that isn't atlas eternal? because I couldn't really tell you

[vocal cedar]

Idk where to ask this. I took a break from no mans sky and now we can have pirate freighter. Do all pirate freighters look the same? Also after destroying the shields and stuff will that be repaired after I claim the pirate freighter?

[strong geyser]

Yes all pirate freighters look the same if it’s not repaired after claiming it you could try resummoning it.

[wind oak]

alright

[lavish marsh]

ok, so my knowledge isnt super up to date

[wind oak]

ik that sentinels are ass and they start throwing tantrums when anyone builds anything

but thats all ik

[lavish marsh]

but if im remembering correctly, basically, sentinels take over every planet and destroy anything that isn't how the planet should be. That's why no cities exist on the planets, and the most you'll find is settlements (used to just be small little bases but they since added bigger stuff)

the sentinels are created by the Atlas, but you'll learn a lot more about that as you progress in the story

[wind oak]

is atlas like a bad dude

wait

no I was thinking of apollo

I got the names mixed

oops

but alright

I will explore the storyline more

[lavish marsh]

lots of A names in this game

[wind oak]

dude I killed so many sentinels

[lavish marsh]

they probably deserve it

those jerkwads

[wind oak]

I gota be careful since i am playing hardcore

[lavish marsh]

first playthrough???

[wind oak]

yeah....

[lavish marsh]

O_O

[wind oak]

I have not died yet

70hrs in

[lavish marsh]

wait wait wait

[wind oak]

I have not done more quest

much*

[lavish marsh]

you're 70 hours in, and have ignored the story for that long???

[wind oak]

I got side tracked

okay

[lavish marsh]

people have such interesting playstyles

[wind oak]

the planets are so cool

I keep just exploring

[lavish marsh]

im not judging, play the way that makes you happy

thats the whole point of the game anyway

[wind oak]

I also spent like a lot of time building a good base

[wind oak]

lol ik

[lavish marsh]

usually when i play i just go around finding cool scenes and taking screenies

[wind oak]

yeah thats what I have been doing lol

love just exploring

and finding cool spots

[lavish marsh]

one of my favs

[wind oak]

thats so beautiful

seeee how u can get side tracked

they made the game so beautiful

I love how immersive it is

[lavish marsh]

all thats left for me on that save is being sidetracked

[wind oak]

when u enter planets and stuff

lol

[lavish marsh]

completely random crap, its great

[wind oak]

yeah playing nms hardcore first playthrough is kinda scary

I kept killing sentinels till their big ship came

[lavish marsh]

pretty sure you can turn off the hardcore part in the save settings

if ur worried about it

[wind oak]

and boy I got my shit rocked barely lived

nah I love the feeling

[lavish marsh]

oh ok thats good

[wind oak]

I had my ship get down to one point

[lavish marsh]

alright i gotta head to bed

its 2 am for me LOL

[wind oak]

alright good night man take care

[lavish marsh]

you too

[wind oak]

damn yeah go sleep lol

take care cyaa

[vague garnet]

So I’ve seen conflicting reports regarding which campaign route is better for a first-time player to go down. Some have said they should do the ATLAS path first, while others said they should do the Artemis path. Thoughts?

Asking for my friends so try to keep it mostly free of major spoilers

[sour fossil]

In case you did not get the answer already

[vague garnet]

i did not

[sour fossil]

Artemis Path is the main story line which teaches the player most of the mechanics and content of the game

Atlas Path was the original main story line from release days, now pushed as the 2ndary story line to follow

Ideally you want to focus on Artemis Path missions, then during The Purge quest jump onto Atlas Path

To progress both of these at once efficiently

[vague garnet]

I see I see. I heard they have different endings, one which effectively ends the game and one which basically starts NG+? Not sure which is which and not sure if i want to know.

But you said focus on arti until one called the purge right

[sour fossil]

Nothing effectively ends the game

The game is a virtually infinite sandbox

You will be presented with a choice to make, you either do it or not, you will be still able to continue with your character no matter what

[vague garnet]

Hm

[wild dune]

Yes and it's the destruction of Korvax Prime that makes Sentinels aggressive to any settlements on terrain. (and which is basically one of the core storyline of the game)

However only corrupted Sentinels will invade the settlement and according to in game text that there were arguments and divisions within Sentinels, so it's fair to believe that the ordinary red (or orange?) ones are neutral to planet exploitation and the other side is more defensive.

[digital frigate]

Ima try and not read anything else while I'm here but I just finished the Atlas mainline I am assuming restarted the galaxy and now all of my stuff is broken but I was sorting my inventory before I did this and now my materials are on my starship and I have no ferrite dust and can't use the mining tool. I'm guessing I just have to run around until I find some in crates right?

[heady wyvern]

Your melee attack can harvest small amounts of ferrite and carbon. You've probably figured something else out by this point, but it's nice to say something.

[digital frigate]

I had to head out so this is great, honestly out of the 70 something hours I've played I didn't know you could harvest with your hand 😅

[heady wyvern]

Yeah, it ain't much, but it's enough to (literally) claw your way out of an otherwise "unwinnable" situation.

Probably exactly why it's like that.

[digital frigate]

a other thing is, I am assuming all of the damaged stuff will get fixed or is that an entire manual thing because good lord that's gonna take a while

[heady wyvern]

You're gonna have to do it yourself, I'm afraid.

[digital frigate]

😵‍💫oh boy

[olive galleon]

is there anymore story quests after you go to the new galaxy?

[heady wyvern]

Not in the Artemis line, no, but completing that line fulfills one of the criteria for the Echoes quests.

Which can be considered something of its own story.

[olive galleon]

what are the echoes quests?

[digital frigate]

☠️ sooo idek how im gonna be able to take off since my ship is a sentinel ship and requires corruption parts to repair

which aren't on this planet I got reset on

or...i could just summon another ship of mine

💀 I am a little slow

[lofty acorn]

If you have other ships, that are fueled, you can use those.

Repair kits are the fastest way to repair, anything, as well.
