nms-spoilers

[dense quartz]

Welp now I hope even more lol.

[lofty fable]

what would beacon be about

[uncut harness]

I feel like there are a lot of other emojis that could represent a "beacon" 🔦 🏮 🚨 🌟 🗻 🔥

[ebon spoke]

Smaller update to coincide with a Switch 2 port. No big headlining features, but a lot of smaller quality of life ones. Like how Waypoint released with the Mac version and Fractal released with the PSVR2 version.

final prediction, I'm locking in

[icy citrus]

Expedition, POI touch ups

[uncut harness]

Husbandry update would be cool though

[lilac ledge]

I want an autophage husband

[uncut harness]

Need Autophage squad members so you can roleplay haha

[lilac ledge]

I wanna know what that staff do

[cedar rover]

Interesting choice of emoji, my first thought was a cooking update. Than I thought with the Nutrient Ingestor, we did kind of already get an update to that system.

My next thought was Bacon, Beacons? Mainly referring to the POI structure, maybe a POI refresh of some kind?

The timing is pretty good but probably coincidental with the Switch 2 releasing next week on Thursday.

[dreamy quartz]

lmao bacon

[flint hollow]

How long till we know for sure?

[analog breach]

When it will be released

[glass flare]

but I'm vegan, Sean 😢

[arctic bough]

hmm playing through the story on permadeath and have we ever heard more about the progenitors?

[winter plover]

Probably referring to the people who built the atlas, assumed to be human. It comes up in some lore you can find around the galaxy, I don't think it's mentioned in any quest lines

[solar shadow]

I just went through the final mission, and now I have two Active void eggs? I had one before I went through the portal...

[arctic bough]

oh wtf seriously? is this the one time where saying no actually makes a difference instead of just "come back when you wanna say yes and progress"

[fiery citrus]

Does it make a difference which one of the 4 galaxy options I pick when resetting the simulation?

[plain sluice]

Not a big huge difference

[fiery citrus]

Also realised it doesn’t matter for me because I warp through like 50 solar systems an hour lmao

[fervent fern]

Sorry everyone, catching up with the news now. We don't have an expedition date set server-side, do we? 👀

[ebon spoke]

nope, not yet

[fervent fern]

Roger, thank you!

[glass flare]

my current feeling is that because the LNF account reposted the Sean emoji, which has never happened before, we're probably getting some LNF news at Summer Game Fest. and alongside that we might get a NMS update with Switch 2 support (and maybe more, who knows)

[vestal barn]

I do think that what's going to happen to be honest.
Sean is very careful in general. He knows people are waiting for anything for light no fire.

Its in his comments section in every post.

So reposting it from light no fire.
Is definitely a sign. Its not confirmed but it can get a lot of people disappointed
if its only for nms and posting it from light no fire account.

Overall. Sean wants to push light no fire wishlist on steam. It can help with marketing and it will give them more confidence as team

So its very smart move to do another hype trailer for light no fire. And summer game fest is perfect choice for it.

Light no fire with 1 trailer. It managed to jump into top 7 wishlist on steam.
I do think a second trailer can easily push them into top 3.

[sour fossil]

TBH I don't think LNF account reposting bears any significance

True, a trailer is long overdue, but maybe it's just a case of HG signaling "hey, we know we got this social account for our next game, it's still active, our journey continues"

[grizzled apex]

huh, Bluesky got a triple emoji while Sean's just reposted the other account links on twitter. Are they targeting a bigger move off of twitter than just expanding out?

[analog breach]

They clearly want to gather atention

For what . We dont know yet. Maybe its just switch2 release.

[glass flare]

I sure hope so, it's way past time

[icy citrus]

Except that doesn't seem to be their LNF account on Twitter

Just some randos
Edit: see below for clarification

[ebon spoke]

its linked to from the Light No Fire website

at the bottom of the Press section

[icy citrus]

Argh

[ebon spoke]

kinda weird that it isn't followed by Sean Murray or Hello Games' official accounts though

[icy citrus]

Their link to Twitter on the LNF main page takes you to the HG Twitter, didn't check the press kit

[night helm]

They have RedNote account too 🙂 https://www.xiaohongshu.com/user/profile/5c38c5a40000000007026969

[arctic bough]

he's cool :)

[fervent fern]

One of my favorite lines when everything seems to be falling.

But then you get -null-'s desperate messages, and...

[lilac ledge]

I reprimanded that guy

Tried putting a gif-

Just imagine the simpsons meme “won’t someone think about the children!”

[gloomy isle]

I wonder if the corvette stuff might be more porting of tech from LNF

Specifically large sailing ships or something

[vestal barn]

i actually thought the same thing since it's hard to believe anything related to light no fire lol. but i did verify it from their steam page ( they shared it there ) and from HG main page actually.

i checked light no fire on facebook. but it looks like they didn't share any info there. so i am not sure

[icy citrus]

Yeah, the X logo link on that main web page links to their HG Twitter, but it's listed in the press kit as AyyMang corrected me on

[ebon spoke]

The fishing skiff is already reusing their boat tech I'm pretty sure. (It floats, you can sail it around, you can stand on it while it moves). Would make sense for the corvette to take that movement tech and put it on a spaceship

[gloomy isle]

Probably the building stuff too I'd guess

[vestal barn]

i am so hyped about the update. i am not sure if it's nms or light no fire or both. but all i know something is coming from 1 of them at least 😂 🤣

i think if Sean share it once again from light no fire account. it will be confirm it for light no fire as well 😅

[analog breach]

I keep expectations low. Just expedition update with switch release + new lnf trailer with no release date in summer gane fest.

[icy citrus]

They have a bluesky for LnF also, no posts

I postulated that it means they are cooking for both

Update for NMS, news for LNF at gamefest

Time will tell!

[uncut harness]

You know, it wouldn't make sense if the dragons and bird in LNF couldn't also walk around while you ride them really. Unlike ships they have legs

[gloomy isle]

I'm starting to think that if this is a joint LNF NMS thing, the emoji isn't pointing to a name or anything.

Just "we've been cooking"

[lilac ledge]

I made bacon butties the morning that they posted that 😩 my cooking willed it into existence

[rancid ether]

I think it might be LNF as well. Possibly a reference to Francis Bacon and his analysis of Prometheus and the fire, which was already heavily speculated to be what the title "Light No Fire" is referencing.

[rancid flax]

first time ive seen it being brought up

but hello games does use a lot of greek references so maybe

[gloomy isle]

Could be. My very specific theory is that there's a LNF trailer+ they show off boats and stuff. Which might lead to them putting out corvettes as a ported over feature

[ebon spoke]

Could be beacon as in a beacon fire, something that has a pretty strong correlation with classic fantasy literature (Lord of the Rings)

Specifically showing off boats from LNF sounds like a pretty specific feature when we don't actually know that much about the game yet. If they show something I'd expect it to be more of a general showcase

[uncut harness]

Wtf are corvettes is hello games adding race cars to nms

[analog breach]

We dont know.

We only know the name. I can be everything or nothing.

[sour fossil]

We assume it's a new type of ship that allows players to build on it

Something like a frigate with base building capabilities and probably piloted by player

All we have are the internal name, some mentions of hangar section and some experiments with base building on player ships

[lofty fable]

hope not

blue sky is an empty desert

[icy citrus]

33 million plus is empty? Wild

[native carbon]

bluesky is a better twitt- i mean X tho

[eternal radish]

Even Sean knows that Xitter is dying.

[native carbon]

Xitter lol

[glass flare]

the dictionary definition is a small warship designed for convoy escort duty but they could just be using the name loosely

[analog breach]

Or a code name for something totaly diffrent.

[fiery citrus]

How will I know that I can start finding purple stars? I think I finished the autophage line

Oh, I haven’t

[gloomy isle]

Large ships with custom interiors

[gloomy isle]

From what I can tell, they've probably chosen it because it's a size smaller than a frigate, typically

Which would make sense with what we know of it

[cedar rover]

If we're thinking Sci-Fi/Sci-Fantasy I can't help but think of ships like the Raider II Class Corvette from Star Wars when thinking about how NMS could handle it.

If they're pilotable, I wonder how large they would be.

[gloomy isle]

Yeah stuff like that would be awesome. Could essentially be a space motorhome 😂

Apparently there's textures for a hangar or something like that, though I doubt it'd be the size of a freighter's

So likely big enough to carry one ship I'd guess. But that's pure speculation

[cedar rover]

I do wonder if corvettes do come to the game, I wonder how the balancing will be handled. I assume Freighters will be the mass storage option and all purpose in space base.

With being able to build on a corvette, I wonder how that'll alter the balance.

[glass flare]

whenever I think of "corvette" ships I think of Homeworld

[pliant onyx]

So basically bigger than a personal spaceship but smaller than a frigate?

I wonder if they are landable

[glass flare]

pretty much yeah, multi-crew with more weapons than a single-seater

[pliant onyx]

Are they landable?

Can they be docked in a freighter?

[glass flare]

in terms of the datamined assets I'm not sure we have any of that info

I doubt they'd fit in a freighter unless HG changes freighter layouts

[cedar rover]

I speculate they'd probably be their own ecosystem and if I may be so bold another set of UPGRADES BABY!

[gloomy isle]

Since they have a hanger, I'd personally bet on them not being landable

[pliant onyx]

The hangar could be for exo craft tough

[gloomy isle]

So we'd fly one down to the surface, then get out in our ship or something

[pliant onyx]

So what it would offer in contrast to freighters?

[gloomy isle]

It would by flyable, and would likely be usable in combat

Basically an in between of ships and freighters I guess?

I'd personally use it a lot if we could install the full system scanners that freighters can use

But again we don't really have much of an idea about what they'd end up like

[pliant onyx]

But anyway we could have a fleet of different sized space born ships

[glass flare]

I hope that we can hire NPC crew to man them for different positions and they're not just used for friend groups in multiplayer

[cedar rover]

I do have one last bit of speculation on corvettes if they are related somehow to the next update. Perhaps an Expedition focused on corvettes, much like the one Freighter based Expedition.

[glass flare]

personally they don't seem very useful to me though, unless there' gameplay systems we don't know about yet

[pliant onyx]

They don't seem useful but would bring some different ways to explore

[gloomy isle]

I'd mainly use one because I dislike freighters a lot 😂

Super boring imo, let my fly it around

[pliant onyx]

Freighter are more like orbital bases them ships

[gloomy isle]

Yeah. They're handy but not my cup of tea

Now if I can have a large ship which has its own market terminal, full system scanner etc now we're talking

[glass flare]

what would flying freighters around a star system give you though, they would be very slow

[gloomy isle]

Would probably still have a pulse drive tbf

[glass flare]

i do think NPC freighters should move though

[gloomy isle]

Remember we're talking about something smaller than a frigate, so it would likely be around the size of an elite dangerous or starfield ship

As a guess

[glass flare]

yeah I was talking about freighters, not corvettes. corvettes would probably be pretty fast moving

[gloomy isle]

Aah yeah I see what you mean now

I feel like flyable frigates have been requested for a while but for obvious reasons aren't feasible to do

So maybe corvettes are an answer to that? Hopefully not long till we see lol

[glass flare]

it's still wild to me that HG spent what had to be a decent amount of dev time on crafting walkable interiors for frigates, with almost nothing to do in them

[gloomy isle]

Yeah it's kinda weird. It's almost like they were playing with the idea if having them be flyable but ditched it

[glass flare]

did they plan to do something more with them and then decided not to?

maybe corvettes will act as more what they originally thought about for frigates, yeah

[gloomy isle]

It wouldn't surprise me if LNF has larger sailing ships, given how they're testing a lot of the tech in NMS

[glass flare]

yeah that would make sense, probably bigger ships will be needed to sail to other continents

I do wonder where corvettes would dock though... if they can't land on freighters, how do you manage them as part of your fleet

maybe they just hang out with the frigates when you're not piloting them?

or maybe there will be a new external docking port you can add to a freighter

[knotty mountain]

So what are we thinking this update might be?

Any theories going around?

[glass flare]

Switch 2 support is the obvious guess, beyond that who knows

[knotty mountain]

That makes sense, I'm seeing people talking about something to do with corvettes? Where did that come from?

[analog breach]

From digging in game files

[knotty mountain]

Ah, so that doesn't mean much because we've seen stuff hanging out in game files for a long time in the past before actually being used

[analog breach]

Sean posted pic with armor that is not in the game yet . So new exp probably

[knotty mountain]

New expedition is pretty much a guarantee imo, most updates have an expedition that accompanies the new content

It would be nice to see a multiplayer focused update, not for multiplayer missions but more like for trading and maybe like a guild system or something

[glass flare]

as someone who is anti-expeditions, that would be unfortunate, but I am not really expecting anything big for this one anyway

[analog breach]

I just hope its not another waypoint update that f-ups everything . Again.

[glass flare]

i'm just expecting Switch 2 support, some minor feature, and bug fixes. anything else would be a happy surprise

[rancid flax]

would you say permanently replayable expeditions is the solution?

[glass flare]

I can't speak for others, I just don't like expeditions in general. At least not the ones where most of your tasks are grinding for mats and crafting things... which is the majority of expeditions

[rancid flax]

the main problem i have with them is that they feel wasteful

the devs put in all the effort designing and implementing an expedition only to strip it away

that and the fact that is it obviously a completion nightmare for anyone who misses one or is later to start playing the game

[gloomy isle]

This might be why they have a hanger, so we have something to shuttle ourselves to the station with. Either that or stations get some sort of external docking port maybe?

[gloomy isle]

There's no expedition date on the servers yet so it's far from a guarantee

[uncut harness]

Expeditions expose its space minecraft at the end of the day the most which is fine ig I like the rewards

[gloomy isle]

Yeah they're alright as something to pass the time between updates

I generally don't play them but they're alright

[knotty mountain]

I agree with what spiflicate was saying, I feel like there wouldn't need to be something to "pass time between updates" if they weren't focusing dev time in making exp we would have more updates, then we would be getting updates around the time we're tired with the previous

[glass flare]

It sounds kind of a hassle, just as it is to use your freighter to jump to a system and then go to the hangar to get in your single-seater. I mean some people might find that compelling but it gets a bit old after a while

It would be cool to have an external docking port on stations for corvettes, but probably not too feasible... would require reworking the existing station designs, and then for abandoned systems where do you dock

[mint lynx]

If you sonf have all the expedition rewards are you really playing nms

[outer cobalt]

This?

Living Stone Helmet, Chitin Armour, and pretty much everything else is Armoured, all black, Outlaw Cape (not with a jetpack as seen here)

[gloomy isle]

Yeah that's all been in the game for a while

[uncut harness]

I assume this is a joke but hell nah lol
So many good rewards I know people who deeply regret skipping fishing cuz the armor set so good

Know others who regret missing the cursed potions

[native carbon]

[gloomy isle]

It's that armour in the screenshot above, been in the game ages :/

@analog breach I certainly don't have the 'shoulders' for it to look good. Need to grow some muscle 😄
Looks good on Sean for some reason though

that armor looks a bit fantasy for NMS, like it was repurposed from LNF armor

[dense quartz]

I feel like the only one in the whole community who thinks it's wildly misunderstood what HG is doing with the tech.

They already made the tech for LNF, that game is already using it and they just backported it into NMS.

They're not "testing" it as if it's still not ready but it's getting released in NMS first before they decide to implement it to LNF.

I just get so confused everything I see someone say they're "testing" the tech in NMS. At no point have HG ever made that claim lol.

[winter plover]

I think they mean testing as in seeing how it plays out in a live game with users, not like testing to see if it's possible

[safe quarry]

i think what peeps mean by that is that they are putting it out to a wider audience to see how it performs on multiple platforms. It's not that the tech isn't finished, but more that they think it's a good way to outsource your QA to a wide audience of users before light no fire releases properly, so you can iron out kinks. That's not to say that's what I'm saying they are doing, but it's a good biproduct of backporting it into NMS. Most games these days have dicey launches because there's so many permutations of hardware on pc that you can't account for all the edge cases. Putting something like the water tech in NMS was probably just them doing exactly what they said and bringing their great new water physics to their other game, but they've also since optimised its performance because of zendesk reports from it being in NMS.

So yes I don't think they are using NMS as a test bed for their LNF tech, that would be silly to undermine one game to prop up another, but it is a way to get a broad QA of your game in the same way that early access games are using their early adopters also as free QA :3

[dense quartz]

Right, that makes sense.

[safe quarry]

But yes I agree with you that they are probably mostly just excited to show their new tech off!

and the water almost feels like a teaser for how good LNF is going to be!

[dense quartz]

Yeah both Worlds updates made me go from thinking "LNF is using NMS' engine" to "NMS is using LNF's engine" lol.

I'd be perfectly happy if LNF feels and plays mostly like NMS but with different content, but looks like it'll be much more than that. At least the tech is way more advanced to what we had in NMS back when LNF was announced. It's nuts!

[safe quarry]

Yes! I think with multiplayer being considered from the start, and pushed so heavily, there will be a lot more gong on under the hood for multiplayer in LNF

but i imagine that will get ported back to NMS too maybe.

@tawdry heart Corvettes have been datamined in the files as their own ship class with buildable interiors. So potentially multicrew ships.

[tawdry heart]

ohhhhhh

hmm, that sounds interesting

[safe quarry]

Smaller than a frigate but bigger than our personal ships. There's a hangar icon so it has a hangar

and files for a corvette base, and a friend's corvette base

so like the capital ships in that you can build inside them.

and there was some tech showing build parts tied to a ship players fly

[tawdry heart]

god we should be able to build in more places.

Imagine if you could enter a small base in the colossus or something

[safe quarry]

so that the build parts moved with the ship

Well if they pull off corvettes then who knows! Maybe they could!

I would say if they do add them then they are a ways off. Thew new space stations were datamined more than a year before they came to the game properly

and they were more finished than a few loose icons and references to corvettes in the files

[tawdry heart]

personally i'd like some more basic features to be added before corvettes that would make them more interesting in the long run, like the weapons rework, maybe some sort of freighter combat rework (imagine being able to put weapons on your freighter to support you if they're nearby)

[safe quarry]

yes and as others have said, some space POIs so we have things to travel to as a group of players

oooh do you reckon beacons could be space POIs??? I've been so focused on planet POIs i hadn't thought about beacons out in space?

Maybe they're finally making things like derelict freighters fixed POIs rather than spawning infront of the player every time?

[tawdry heart]

oh that would be fun

[safe quarry]

those pirate listening posts

[tawdry heart]

cause it would also mean you could stumble upon one randomly

[safe quarry]

could actually be floating in space as a location you can go to fight waves of pirates

[tawdry heart]

also, big asteroids for space mining

[safe quarry]

like a space outpost

yes and big asteroids. which also means we need proper EVA

aka space walks

[tawdry heart]

welll, i was moreso thinking more things to mine in your ship, like in star citizen and such

Oh yea, more spacecraft mining/resource harvesting equipment. Using a hauler like an RV mobile home could be fun

[safe quarry]

oh yes i do mean for mining, but i figure if you're having big asterois you also might as well have the ability to spacewalk

[tawdry heart]

fair

[safe quarry]

I'd love this

This is bad but sometimes i love the mundane 'day in the life' style play

and i have never played star citizen but i like watching peeps do regular jobs like mining or scavenging on it

[tawdry heart]

same, i think its a bit of a scam and they really pushed their luck with the latest update, but I like watching them do their things. Like a terrarium of sorts.

Anyway, yea having a good average joe's job would be fun

[safe quarry]

I'm going to put my space POIs theory in the NMS future channel in case i'm right! I doubt i am, but who knows! I almost guessed the name 'relics' for the last update, but changed my mind to remnants at the last minute!

[tawdry heart]

yea imagine space scavenging by using some sort of laser to cut up a freighter into pieces of scrap to sell

[safe quarry]

mhm! They already have the model for space derelicts we can't land on, just add some breakable parts we can salvage for scrap!

In fact they have a lot of the models for a lot of space POIs already, they just need to have them be out there in space rather than spawning by our ship. Then the anomaly scanner can just work by pointing us to them instead.

Then space becomes this place we actually want to explore on its own merits

rather than something we just have to fly through to get to the next planet

space battles can then happen periodically in high conflict systems, rather than one spawning on top of us whenever we warp there

you could get a ping saying there is a distress signal in space, and an icon to lead u to it.

[tawdry heart]

this would work really well with the regional factions suggested somewhere in the nms future, that'd be fun

you could choose to support a side

[gloomy isle]

With big engine changes, additions to tech etc, it's important to test them at scale if they want to optimise them and avoid issues. Sure, they're already made, but putting them into an existing product is an excellent way of ironing out issues and getting feedback

For example if the new terrain was absolutely horrible and no one liked it, that would definitely get fixed but it would also inform LNF

At the end of the day it's primarily put into NMS because it's a feature that works well and people want, but it also does have the added benefit of effectively being a beta test for the tech in LNF

[late tusk]

i want to build on an asteroid

[glass flare]

yooo I don't know if anyone already mentioned this, but I saw that Sean posted this picture of a NMS sunrise at 5:42am PST (LA timezone) today.

The sunrise in LA was at 5:42am today

Sean is probably hinting that he's in LA for Summer Game Fest 🌞

#no-mans-hype🐝 message

[frigid valley]

Well it was also 1:42 pm UK time
So he could be just posting around his lunch break

[glass flare]

Sure he could, yeah... but Summer Game Fest is in LA. it seems way too coincidental to just post a random sunrise at the exact same time

[native carbon]

my NMS update predictions:

EMOJI: 🥓

theory #1
planetary map update, a map that shows the entire planet and its POI's, oceans, and more. Players can display beacons on the map for navigation. NMS: BEACONS

theory #2
farm update, it will add pastures, farm stuff, gathering materials from fauna rework.
NMS: HARVEST

[analog breach]

Teory#3
Bring bacon home : economy / trading overhaul

[native carbon]

Tery#4
They are actually adding bacon to the game

[humble kayak]

I wonder how Corvettes might tie into all this

Sure, it's entirely possible we won't see anything about them for awhile, because (allegedly, I wasn't there) when the space station revamp was found it was almost, if not a little over, an entire year before they were formally added to the game

[analog breach]

Dont get to excited about things that where datamined. ship racing was found in 1.4 ver and still we dont have it.

[uncut harness]

Shuttle customization has been available since day 1 of the original update too

Modders had it day 2 lol

And then to rub salt in the wound they got skipped for solar

[humble kayak]

Wasn't aware of either of these things

Well thanks guys I appreciate the heads up

Saves the potential disappointment if they aren't added

[uncut harness]

racing can't really happen anymore
All ships are basically the same now they use to be different

[humble kayak]

I thought the ship types had differing speeds?

Huh.

[uncut harness]

Ships use to be more different this is a long time ago like 2018

[humble kayak]

alr, I guess you learn something new every day

[uncut harness]

NMS come a long way I like the way stuff use to be for alot of stuff thp

Tho

[glass flare]

if they're really adding corvettes, they should also make Colossus able to carry multiple people

so that there's a central mode of group travel for both space and land

[analog breach]

I would like colosus to be able to transform into small base that u can walk inside with all basic necessities. Something like from these old rts mobile main buildings.

[uncut harness]

Sum like that would of came with gas giants if it was coming
Super dangerous planets

[late edge]

I'd be happy to get a base we can move around.

I can't stay on one planet forever I just can't lol

[molten ridge]

base tiles that are hover jets, give us cloud city style bases that we can slowly move around

vrrrrrr

[analog breach]

I would like bigger skiff. Something in size of catamaran or trimaran

[late edge]

I'd atleast like them to put an engine on the back of that thing so we can drive it across the lake, ocean whatever

[uncut harness]

Freighter

[humble kayak]

Those things always remind me of a Juggernaut turbo tank from Star Wars, and by the looks of it the Colossus is definitely big enough for at least a small interior

[humble kayak]

But beckoning to what, is the question

maybe it's the Void Mother beckoning???

😳

What if it IS the Void Mother beckoning

[viral geyser]

Maybe it’s the 4th part to the autophage story line

[sweet iron]

i’m sure this has been suggested countless times but i would love to be able to customize laylaps. they’re absolutely begging to wear a silly little hat

Bacon

[analog breach]

🥓

[native carbon]

Baconator update

Or bacon = baconator = liquidator = wp1 = wp2 = wp3 confirmed!!!!1!

Trust

[analog breach]

Bacon= meat= flesh = living = living freighters

[fervent fern]

Well, the emoji seems organic enough...

[slim bobcat]

Bacon cowboy?

No cowboy emoji post from sean yet

[past shuttle]

Anyone know what on earth the bacon means?? 😂

[nimble heath]

Imagine if light no fire turns out to be an NMS update instead of a new game.

[dreamy quartz]

Cooking update lmao

Or beacons.... like points of interest

Im still hoping for procedural dungeons on planets like what we have with derelict freighters

[analog breach]

Sizzling hot update lol

[thorn token]

I mean there is bacon in minecraft.
Maybe a farming update where you can collect creatures in a fenced environment like in slime rancher. Look at how popular stardew valley has become.
https://minecraft-max.net/upload/webp/upload/iblock/e1f/neb05ey3gdyzd5wmof59t09iqi8h4jug.webp

[novel summit]

@cloud jolt I genuinely think you cracked it this makes so much sense

[thorn token]

Dungeons isn't unlikely considering they can copy the mechanic from LNF, like they did with staffs, golems and more

At least if LNF is like procedural Skyrim

[dense quartz]

inb4 the LNF community starts pointing out how the clock icon is highlighted.

[icy citrus]

Too late

[grizzled apex]

I know steamdb can't track proper private branch updates anymore, but I have a feeling these app specific general changes are still indicative of a branch update. We'd need to cross check with an experimental to be sure when one happens, but it lines up with HG's usual update pattern too.

[gloomy isle]

Is there any sign of an expedition in the files as of yet? Very interesting if there still isn't

Makes me wonder if it is a switch 2/ QOL thingy after all

[grizzled apex]

Nothing serverside still (last checked like 5 minutes ago). Usually not having an exped lined up weeks in advanced has either meant a) no expedition w/ an update or b) expedition 2 weeks after the update (ex Liquidators or Titan)

keyword being so far

[tame grotto]

Interesting! I do hope there is a little bit of time before the expedition starts so any bugs from the update can be ironed first

[late edge]

I'm pleasantly surprised.

Last couple of years it's been update expedition update. A pattern like that.

But this year it's worlds part 2, relics now appears to be another content update.

[grizzled apex]

for sure! i had a weird time with relics because of the claim all bug w/ the rendezvous points in experimental and had to go around tinkering with my save file, so hopefully any exped this time around can avoid that 😅

[tame grotto]

Good thing some of us have access to a save editor. It's extra painful for those who are on console and can't work around some of those bugs.

[gloomy isle]

Hmm in that case then I might be betting on it being like waypoint (the beacon name would lend itself to that really well)

Ooor it's one of the more focused summer updates like endurance, with an expedition in the next couple of weeks

[lime birch]

Beacon = Waypoint = Switch 2 port

[gloomy isle]

Since switch 2 is out tomorrow I wouldn't be at all surprised tbh

[uncut harness]

Hopefully it's something related to poi's

[gloomy isle]

In fact, a port update then a summer update in July would make sense I think

[grizzled apex]

Oh I can't believe how easy we have it on PC haha. I can't imagine doing timed expeds on my PS4 anymore if there are issues, but then again the glitch I faced did show up in experimental.

[lime birch]

Actually you can now since saves are synced. Edit your save on PC and load on console with cross save

[uncut harness]

First have to contact HG tho

[grizzled apex]

You'd need the game purchased on Steam, and access to the cloud save beta.

[lime birch]

Yeah

I already did it for some rewards 😁

[analog breach]

Thats why i do exps 1st time on new saves . So main save stays safe from potential save breaking bugs.

[tame grotto]

Exactly And even a PC. Not everyone everyone on console has that luxury @lime birch But yeah, for some that do, thankfully cloud-saves (even they've allowed in, since it's been Beta) at least have an option

[glass flare]

I wish the expedition rewards were just moved out of expeditions and into general tasks you can complete anywhere, with no time limit

[thorn token]

That would make the rewards nothing special and far less players would care todo the expeditions and keeping the game alive. Sean said in a interview how positive the effect of expeditions is on the player count.

[uncut harness]

Alternatively make the rewards availible at the QS Shop, albeit after some time has passed

[glass flare]

Eh? The rewards are special because they are cool, not bc they are part of an expedition. As far as player count, everyone says they love playing expeditions, so I doubt rewards would change that. A lot of people seem to want directed goals that expeditions provide

If an expedition has a cool gimmick and a story that ties into the lore, I'll probably play it regardless of the rewards

[river surge]

It's Thursday

[gloomy isle]

Would still work tbf, Thursday isn't out of the question for the update

[late edge]

When has an update released on Thursday lol

[river surge]

They can make it one off for Thursday

[late edge]

We'll see!

[river surge]

Am just guessing like everyone tbh lol

[raw girder]

but imagine if nomans sky is releasing in a next gen console at release time probably they might have planned to launch it with a bang. theres going to be a graphical upgrade ofcourse in the switch 2.

[ebon spoke]

I mean, sometimes the Switch version doesn't even get the update till a whole a day after other platforms,

I think they'll stick to normal release schedule with the promise of "hey, you can also get the game free on Switch 2 tomorrow if you already own the game on switch!"

[quartz thistle]

May I mention that this clock is pointed to like 🕑 2 on the dot

[glass flare]

well it's just the UI of the app, Sean didn't make that..

[quartz thistle]

Welp

[native carbon]

@grizzled apex any news with like upcoming expedition date?

[grizzled apex]

no expedition queued up at all server side this time around

[native carbon]

No flippin way

The streak will end!

The curse will vanish!

[uncut harness]

No exp for an update? What is this 2019?

[icy citrus]

Or January of this year

[uncut harness]

January was worlds part 2 with the gas giant focused exp wasn't it

[icy citrus]

Titan started mid February

[uncut harness]

Ohhhh yeah I remember delayed due to cursed related bugs then double delayed on switch

[icy citrus]

I'd guess a larger update, at least in terms of what they did and an expedition a couple weeks later

Probably twitch drops too

I suppose they could be waiting to plug the expedition in till the last minute, but they haven't done that before that I recall

[uncut harness]

Ooo drops would be very neat

Gotta have a exp they have the best rewards lol
Aquarius drip went crazy

Finally a good staff from the Titan exp

And the star wars ship is amazing

eh theres no way im running through another expedition for quite some time. But if its another large update its quite likely one will follow sadly

What's wrong with exps

To me they mostly feel like work, and i even kinda consider them spoilers for things I would have naturally stumbled upon in my regular save

also: FOMO, even with the in most cases generous time limit

You should have fomo I know people who still regret skipping some exps the rewards are good aha

yeh for me its singularity, i really like all the autophage stuff

[late edge]

My FOMO is the atlas themed gear.

[glass flare]

I only play in 1st person so most of the suit rewards I have zero interest in

[mint lynx]

Nms in first person that was one of thr biggest features of next third person

[river surge]

Am always in third person

[glass flare]

I just like to be super immersed when walking around planets and 1st person is what does it for me

[uncut harness]

In third person, just imagine an invisible sentinel or the atlas watching you

First person view model could use some work for me

in VR though it's pretty sick

[ebon spoke]

First person is how the game was originally designed, third still feels somewhat janky and weird to me

can be good for flying though

[mint lynx]

I prefer third I'd say ui too bad for first

[viral geyser]

Imagine its worlds part 3

It’s not

But imagine

[mint lynx]

I didn't even know there was gunna be a part 3

Part 2 went off with a bang where as part 1 was kinda small

[glass flare]

Sean has never talked about a Part 3, people just want to believe that there is

🚧 Channel Move 🚛

Everyone, please note that this channel is moving has moved over to a new channel category 🤫 No Man's Sky Spoilers under the ⭐ No Man's Sky category, to become neighbors with our new #nms-lore channel.

Clarification: Nothing really changes for this channel except its new home.

• This channel continues to allow for NMS lore discussion.
• The sole purpose of #nms-lore is so players who would like to avoid being spoiled with unreleased content, including datamined leaks, can still discuss game lore elsewhere.

Please review our latest pinned channel rules in both channels:

• #nms-spoilers message
• #nms-lore message

For anyone who has issues seeing the new category and/or channel, please head over to id:browse to Follow Category and/or any respective channel you'd like to see. An alternative is to go to the No Man's Sky settings at the top and Show All Channels.

-# To share this info with others who may have missed this post, please run !SpoilerChannels in any channel.
-# For questions on these changes, or the channels' Topic or Rules, #contact-us.

[rancid flax]

this seems like a good change

[glass flare]

so lore will have spoilers also, but only lore spoilers? what about lore in a brand new update, does that go in lore also @tame grotto ?

[tame grotto]

Correct. Unreleased content cannot be discussed in #nms-lore.

[glass flare]

gotcha, so datamined lore should not go there, but here

[tame grotto]

Yeah. Unreleased content of any kind is against #nms-lore rules.

[glass flare]

also fwiw I still only see this channel under the No Man's Sky section. I tried restarting discord (Mac client)

[tame grotto]

I did have "moving..." in the pin. Please check again, and you shall see it there now.

We also created a command: !SpoilerChannels which anyone can run here or in #no-mans-sky, if you guys find anyone a little disoriented with the change.

[glass flare]

you're a magician

[tame grotto]

Ty for bringing it up though. I do appreciate you checking things and letting me know if there are issues

[glass flare]

ha no problem, sorry for jumping the gun! and great idea to split them

[tame grotto]

No worries! I appreciate you guys being proactive checking things.

And yeah, I appreciate the suggestion from the community over in #discord-server-feedback. It was long overdue! I wanted to make sure I didn't let it get past another update this time. Hopefully there won't be too must disruption with folks trying to find this channel under the new category

[dense quartz]

currently 6 am, the buttcrack of dawn

... Today's the day.

[uncut harness]

cries in switch owner probably not lok

Love the separation of lore, I might go read some conversations there now.

[humble kayak]

"Look to my coming at the first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the east."

[uncut harness]

Oh there‘s a new channel specifically for lore now?!

That‘s amazing

[slender idol]

i dont want to be pedantic but datamined lore is, in a sense, definitionally released.

[uncut harness]

Data minnes stuff don't really mean nothing though

[native carbon]

Ping me if any news i beg

[native carbon]

🥓

[slate grove]

i just reset the galaxy, all my ship parts are broken, its critically damaged, is notwhere to be found on you freighter, i cannot summon it to fix it. where did this thing go

[cloud jolt]

⚠️ NO UPDATE SPOILERS

Go to #nms-spoilers until official patch notes come out in #nms-news-ticker and #nms-announcements.
-# Content not officially announced by HG and not released on all platforms is considered to be spoilers -- this includes data-mined content and leaks.

[plain sluice]

You can summon it after saving and reloading while on a planet

[slate grove]

yeah i got it back after archiving my other ships, just need to get a harmonic brain and some more sentinel stuff so my brain doesnt explode when i try to fly it

does this galaxy have no wiring looms? ive hit 3 systems and none so far

[icy citrus]

They all do, just bad luck

[zenith perch]

Oh nice we finally got the lore channel separate from spoilers, W

[cursive bay]

SEAN MURRAY TWEETS 🥓: THE BACON SINGULARITY APPROACHES

Open your third eye. The 🥓 isn’t just breakfast. It’s a symbol—no, a WARNING. The very fabric of the No Man’s Sky universe is about to be torn asunder by forces mankind was never meant to comprehend.
THEORY: THE BACONVERSE COLLISION

Step 1: Reality Melts
All known galaxies are about to collide with a parallel universe where PHYSICS ARE MEAT-BASED. Every planet, star, and black hole—suddenly rendered in pure, sizzling bacon. Planets spiral as greasy asteroids, freighters drip with crackling fat. Black holes? Now “Snack Holes.” You fall in, you respawn as a sausage.

Step 2: THE PIG GOD AWAKENS
Hidden in the lore—remember those weird glyphs? That wasn’t Vy’keen language, that was ANCIENT SWINE SCRIPT. The true architect of the simulation: Oink’Zoth, Devourer of Worlds, Baconator Supreme. You will kneel before its porcine glory or be cast into the eternal fryer.

Step 3: NEW GAMEPLAY—THE MEAT MORPHOSIS
You wake up and… YOU ARE BACON. Customization? Salt level, crispiness, marbling. Forget exosuits, it’s all about FAT RATIO and SMOKINESS. Base building? Nope. GRILL building.

Step 4: THE FINAL PATCH NOTE
Sean Murray appears in your living room. Physically. He hands you a single, glistening strip of bacon, whispers, “We are the update,” and vanishes into a shimmering pork portal.

I’m telling you, this is it. This is how the simulation ENDS:
Not with a bang, but with a sizzle.

🥓
#TheBaconProphecy

[plain sluice]

You could use repair kits instead, bought from contraband dealers aboard outlaw stations

[plain sluice]

They're available in every regulated system's galactic trade terminal

You can also get them from dismantling most upgrade modules after they are installed, so you could install and dismantle low-class modules

[zenith perch]

You joke but I want some really weird exotics with like, oil water and whatnot

I wonder if we'll get the datamined corvette any time soon.

[viral geyser]

New update out

[zenith perch]

oh shit it is

[ashen geode]

[zenith perch]

Wonder if we'll get a new expedition too or if they'll give us a bit of a break from em

[wind panther]

1 m inute 20 seconds

[vestal barn]

here it's 17.1 GB 6%

[zenith perch]

Yeah they just repack basically the entire game

[heavy light]

Nms’s file system makes it so updates seem a lot bigger than they are

[zenith perch]

Kinda wish that'd change

[ashen geode]

Got 65%

[idle prawn]

i did think too, but 17 g is not too much?=

[quaint mason]

bru my download stuck at 19%

[idle prawn]

for expedition

[zenith perch]

The update is in reality probably like 7gb

[vestal barn]

[tepid iris]

[river surge]

Or so the update has dropped now

[zenith perch]

Settlements I beg

[gusty stream]

Let's see if we get ingame patchnotes

[sour fossil]

Settlements kek

[zenith perch]

Oh my fucking god it finally happened

[tepid iris]

Wait

[heavy light]

Oh for fucks sake

[tepid iris]

[subtle gorge]

THEY UPDATED SETTLEMENTS FINALLY LETS GO?

[quaint mason]

autophage settlements sounds interesting

[robust ruin]

GUYS THIS MIGHT BE PEAK

[subtle gorge]

I DONT EVEN LIKE THEM BUT ...FUCK YEAH??

[heavy light]

Do we think switch gets settlements this time or is it an update for other platforms only?

[wind panther]

No expedition

[idle prawn]

no trailer xD

[sour fossil]

Autophage base parts sound nifty

[heavy light]

WAIT ACTUALLY!?

[gusty stream]

MULTIPLE settlements
NEW base parts

[arctic bough]

MORE BUILDING PARTS pls

[sour fossil]

Joan is gonna have a field day I assume

[heavy light]

HAHAHAHAHHA

I WIN MY PACT

[gusty stream]

HUH

[zenith perch]

I WIN

[quartz thistle]

Yoo settlement stuff

[zenith perch]

I FUCKING WIN, NO MORE ASKING FOR SETTLEMENTS UPDATE EVER AGAIN

[wind panther]

I mean expeditions drop later usually

[quaint mason]

imagine if they redid the timber/stone/metal parts for the third time

[subtle gorge]

They remembered they existed after four years!!!

[wind panther]

There's nothing with a name or anything yet

[zenith perch]

Please be build trees for them I beg

[quartz thistle]

I'll go to the anomaly check stuff out

[robust ruin]

utopia part 2?

[zenith perch]

2025 might be the best year of NMS ever if this keeps going

[robust ruin]

Alright no more spoils till Patch notes

[heavy light]

Damn

[robust ruin]

for me

[heavy light]

Right

Forgot

[arctic bough]

hope its a lot

[river surge]

Where will we see patch notes ?

[arctic bough]

theres sooo many already existing objects i wish we could build

[heavy light]

Now we just gotta see if we finally get settlements for switch or if this update does nothing for us

[zenith perch]

Yall don't get the catharsis I feel now, I've waited so long for this update.

[robust ruin]

Alright that is enough waiting time for me

[heavy light]

One they’re out here

https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/

[robust ruin]

more spoilers guy

[wind panther]

Going to quicksilver vendor

[gusty stream]

Settlements for Switch...2!

[zenith perch]

Curious to see how they'll handle multiple settlements

[uncut harness]

Here‘s hoping they included other POI‘s as well but doubt it, oh well this is cool aswell. Worlds Pt3 will improve POI‘s surely!

[zenith perch]

After that can you check in a settlement to see if the upgrade thing is a tree.

[heavy light]

Like, if this has an expedition, will it be changed for switch or will switch just straight up miss out on rewards

[subtle gorge]

Can we finally choose to opt out of settlement managament alltogether?

[zenith perch]

Hey you don't know what's fully in the update yet

[uncut harness]

Ik ik

[river surge]

Cheers

[zenith perch]

They always have more than we think in patch notes but yes I'd love that

[late tusk]

thats....

it?

[zenith perch]

Settlements update finally off my request list

[tepid iris]

Origins update is out for 4 years oof

[zenith perch]

Wait till the trailer hits

[quartz thistle]

salvaged parts

[late tusk]

:O yay

[wind panther]

No expedition at the vendor yet, but could come later

[quartz thistle]

cost atlantideum

[subtle gorge]

try closer to 5, it HURTS

[gusty stream]

No new rewards?

[late tusk]

yeah im just gonna put on free purchases to get all of it

[subtle gorge]

Origins was peak tho so

[river surge]

Let's go

[zenith perch]

Worlds came out 7 years ago almost

[river surge]

Today ?

[zenith perch]

Yes its a settlement update dynasty, I can't believe it.

[heavy light]

Most likely

[rare meadow]

Yes

[river surge]

Let's go

[uncut harness]

Trailer drops 1-2 h after update usually, sometimes a bit longer

[zenith perch]

I have typed settlement about 330 times atp

[dreamy forge]

Thought they forgot about settlements but here we are

[zenith perch]

Trailer is likely 2 pm uk time

[river surge]

Let's go

Am not home am in a rented apartment that my dad rented while here i slept the night here

[quartz thistle]

Warping to settlement rn

[vestal barn]

how to find robot settlements ? is it new story mission ?

[lyric coral]

Someone check if space stations are ownable

[river surge]

So got no idea when I'll get to download and check it out

[zenith perch]

We don't know yet

[ashen geode]

Structures have letters above now

[zenith perch]

Hey we might get station ownership this year at this rate

[zenith perch]

Settlements becoming functional in 2025 was not on my list of things that would happen.

[gusty stream]

Huh

[next lagoon]

Buildings have classes???

[zenith perch]

I wonder if my settlers will stop trying to noclip through my damn office wall

[wind panther]

Are these new? I don't remember them

[grizzled apex]

might be part of the infestation attacks mechanic?

[gritty mesa]

Everything must have a class

[rare meadow]

Perfect I always feel like I get turned around in my settlement

[zenith perch]

Those are new years

[grizzled apex]

How's the settlement management terminal look now?

[quartz thistle]

"Manage All Settlements" It opens a new menu with a list of settlements

[zenith perch]

Ray reynolds is gonna make some incredible bases with that

[ashen geode]

You know, Switch has no settlements yet. making an update about those and not adding them on Switch sounds unlikely, maybe we'll have them there finally

[zenith perch]

water status?

hmmm

[quaint mason]

yea, tho, they look quite similar to the alloy parts, well at least some of them

[robust ruin]

yo check your water status

[zenith perch]

I would be immensely surprised to not see them on switch, this is a major feature update now.

[quartz thistle]

You can also choose the product your settlement makes

[gusty stream]

The water is GLASS GLASS GLASS GLASS

[quartz thistle]

Brruh that's the name of the settlement

[zenith perch]

Gimme a screenshot of that I need to see it

The amount of QoL this is giving for settlements is incredbile.

[robust ruin]

yummers

[vestal barn]

From any settlement?

[zenith perch]

Class might FINALLY matter

[wind panther]

No new tech that I can find

[ashen geode]

We have way more choices now wit disputes: Fine him, give him a warning, Send him to prison, Free him"

[zenith perch]

I got the update name right for a second time in a row (relics I was one letter off but I'm counting it)

le vendeur Wall lmao

[gusty stream]

WOAH

[zenith perch]

JAIL HIM NOW

[robust ruin]

JAIL!

[ashen geode]

X)

[zenith perch]

Idk what he did but jail him

[robust ruin]

Jail him!

[next lagoon]

You can make food?

[robust ruin]

first citizen of NMS to be jailed

[ashen geode]

He has an issue with a client about a hammer, accused of it being fake

And it's not the first time he's accused...

[quartz thistle]

There's a new animation when you unveil a structure i think

[quaint mason]

interesting how they made sentinel alert lvl a visible stat maybe they are aware it used to be bugged and fixed it so now settlmenets can be s class

[zenith perch]

Dear lord choosing settlement goods is gonna be so peak

[robust ruin]

JAIL HIm!!!!

[quartz thistle]

Fireworks go off

[zenith perch]

God I hope so

I'll legit open NMS way more open because of this update.

[quartz thistle]

Dissonnant transmission

[ashen geode]

We got da pool

[zenith perch]

[vestal barn]

[wicked wraith]

A settlement update?

Sh ill take it

[vestal barn]

Wow

[zenith perch]

I'm in genuine awe

[gusty stream]

WHAT

[zenith perch]

Oh shit nice, upgrade via getting certain items, makes you explore more to find stuff.

This is all very good stuff.

[gusty stream]

No mans sky: canonball update

[robust ruin]

🥦

[zenith perch]

I will never complain again about settlements gg they've done it.

where space station ownership update

I need that next

[quartz thistle]

That's a dissonant settlement

[quaint mason]

damn that looks cool

also howd you find one so fast 😳

[ashen geode]

Mission

[gusty stream]

Oh my GOD

[quartz thistle]

I double checked the settlement computer(?)

The main thing where you resolve disputes

[quaint mason]

dont u have to go to a planet and use a settlement chart to find one?

[quartz thistle]

No settlement chart needed

[quaint mason]

ok

[quartz thistle]

But going to a planet is needed

[zenith perch]

Aw hell yeah

What does settlementhistory say

[gritty mesa]

Did Xbox get an update?

[zenith perch]

Gumsk what the hell why do you have so much QS

CLASS MATTERS FINALLY

[zenith perch]

By the gods this update

[robust ruin]

New stuff (Sorry for link(

[zenith perch]

That relics screenshot looks weird

Is that a cog

[next lagoon]

Citizens can die?

[zenith perch]

I gotta know

Can you pay off debt now

That's a big one for me

It won't make or break the update but it is annoying you can't.

They can die if you send them on expeditions which is why I never bother.

[gusty stream]

Mortality rate 😨

[subtle gorge]

That "retire as overseer" button is all i needed to see

[robust ruin]

the debt is increasing.

[subtle gorge]

We did it

[lofty fable]

good update

[robust ruin]

and next your gonna say,
"Deltarune today."

[zenith perch]

where

[lofty fable]

settlements was always kind of bad so this is good

[tepid iris]

Cowboy tweet means expeditoin

[zenith perch]

Always bad is an understatement, my disappoint in frontiers has been long documented.

[robust ruin]

my first settlment is gonna be my captial for my MEGA MINING CORPRATION: DRG

[zenith perch]

No it just means the update is almost here

they do that all the time

[lofty fable]

always bad i mean yeah settlement was just glorified meh

[river surge]

Well they needed to add more ways to spend units

[zenith perch]

If there is an expedition for this one it'd be a great tutorial

[tepid iris]

no Sean tweets gib for "big update" and cowboy for "expeditoin"

[real merlin]

Meh update

[zenith perch]

He tweet gib yesterday though

[tepid iris]

yeah coz its spread out

[lofty fable]

wait for the patch notes fellas

[robust ruin]

WERE GETTING HORSES

RELEASE THE HORSES

[late tusk]

do we still need to wait hours upon hours to build a single thing

[lofty fable]

the update is 16gb big

[wind panther]

Upgrade from B to A on a residence takes 20 minutes

[charred temple]

is this an expedition along with an update?

[tepid iris]

can you check anomaly for for expediton rewards?

or not available yet

[subtle gorge]

Valid! I just, am happy its a thing. Like the settlement system in its initial incarnatiom felt more like a tech demo

[wind panther]

So I guess they're adding settlements to Switch 2

[subtle gorge]

Im excited to jump into the updated system

[arctic bough]

huh? half of those we already have -3-

[gritty mesa]

Nah I’m nuking my original settlement

[zenith perch]

Keep it

Since you can now own multiple keep it as a keepsake

[meager parcel]

Nuke it

[zenith perch]

Or change what it produces

[gritty mesa]

NUKE IT

[zenith perch]

With those build timers naw

[mortal granite]

So what is new

[zenith perch]

Unless the build timers are lower

[gritty mesa]

💣 💣 💣

[meager parcel]

Now I'm gonna make faecium conglomerate

[zenith perch]

Well rost they've done an entire rework to settlements which I never thought would happen ever

And we don't know other details cause no patch notes

[mortal granite]

Huge news

[heavy light]

Wait what?

[gritty mesa]

Hopefully we can claim abandoned space stations

[neon sentinel]

Where yall finding this stuff lol

[zenith perch]

[tepid iris]

[river surge]

Anyth8ng else added part from tido with autophage and settlements ?

[tepid iris]

gib is big update

[gritty mesa]

Like if the pirates can do it why not us

[zenith perch]

He genuinely did do a gib though

[tepid iris]

All the mainstream youtubers explained the emojis

[neon sentinel]

Awww man I thought I was gonna be able to become a space cowboy

[robust ruin]

damn my game is lagging and this pc aint even a year old

[fallow beacon]

I literally skipped my classes a few minutes ago

[river surge]

Buy mini pc

[wind panther]

No, cowboy and gib aren't related to anything like that

[fallow beacon]

I'M IN AWE

DIOS MIO

[heavy light]

Gib and cowboy mean absolutely nothing, they only mean update soon and update very soon

[fallow beacon]

AAAAAAG

AAAAAAAAA

[zenith perch]

Today we have won big.

[tepid iris]

ah LZ and a couple of others said so a few times

[grizzled apex]

That "pattern" has been broken several times, please dont spread misinformation

[fallow beacon]

WE FUC**NG DIIIIID

[wind panther]

Yeah, I've heard that, but there is no pattern

[fallow beacon]

RAAAAAAH

[mortal granite]

54 minutes to end of work omg

[tepid iris]

ok good theres chance then

[zenith perch]

Erm this update is clearly the cities update with the superformula wdym

[arctic bough]

hmmmm

[wind panther]

I'm honestly pretty happy about this update. Settlements were ass

[tepid iris]

I kinda prefer playing on my own terms vs being a timed battle pass

[zenith perch]

I've not heard Sue Performula mentioned in a while I hope she's okay.

[tepid iris]

Even The Sims 4 has battle passes now lol

[arctic bough]

i hope to GOD we can build base parts in settlements now, without having to do the weirdo base limit extension cheese

[river surge]

Whats is so good about it now lol

[zenith perch]

Well worlds if I get what I want this year we'll hopefully have expeditions playable whenever we want

[meager parcel]

The what now

[grizzled apex]

they felt fine as an accessory feature, but this update's definitely making me realize how bad they were before comparitively 😅

[zenith perch]

Settlements pre update were just a bit shit

[wind panther]

It's much much deeper now...lol?

[zenith perch]

Buggy, getting s class was nigh impossible

[mortal granite]

Wtf

[meager parcel]

Deep as a puddle

[zenith perch]

They felt like pre generated bases

[wind panther]

Completely impossible even

[tepid iris]

companies need to settle down with the battle passes as its really dragged out

[zenith perch]

That's offensive to puddles, it was more a droplet in a glass of water.

[gusty stream]

They had nothing going on
Other than being cool foundations for building bases

[mortal granite]

They were boring like 0 interest

[neon sentinel]

U couldn’t even kick out ur citizens!

[river surge]

From images it don't seam to look to special lol

[arctic bough]

could anyone who has the update already check pls?

[zenith perch]

idk they seem to have done like almost

Everything I wanted

The only thing I don't know about is build timers and debt

[arctic bough]

bruh you havent played it yet, why are you complaining

[zenith perch]

If you can pay off debt this is a 10/10 update, something I only gave to the worlds duology as a whole

[wind panther]

Every building has a separate class that can be upgraded to affect your settlement in different ways. You can have more than six settlement attributes. Every citizen has a detailed profile

[meager parcel]

Lnf account probably shouldn't have retweeted the bacon emoji lol

[arctic bough]

awesomeeee

[zenith perch]

Can you speak to em

[river surge]

Your right I haven't lol

[zenith perch]

Would be very cool if they snuck chefs into the update so you can get chef npcs and whatnot

[wind panther]

They wouldn't be announcing anything for LNF until a show of some kind.

[mental socket]

so settlement update?

[river surge]

Thats what am doing

[zenith perch]

PoI overhaul could be in this one you never know

[tepid iris]

I mean Switch 2 is this week, so pretty logical for NMS having an update, probs bumping Switch support for 2

[wind panther]

Yeah,e verything I've seen is settlement related

[meager parcel]

But got people's hopes up, it's been 84 years

[zenith perch]

My ultimate PoI overhaul is just adding new ones and then adding weather effects like sand covering damaged machinery and whatnot

[tepid iris]

I think NMS did updates for PS4 Pro, Series S|X, PS5, PS5 Pro, PSVR2 etc

[deep parrot]

Atlantideum Refiner? Tell me more?

[zenith perch]

The worlds weather changes having the fog roll down hills and whatnot is very nice

[tepid iris]

NMS is on Switch 1, so update linked to Switch 2 is sensible

[robust ruin]

Deco, cool loks tho

[arctic bough]

yeh

[safe quarry]

here's a weird one!

[deep parrot]

Oh...

[arctic bough]

switch 2 having access to everything would make sense

[zenith perch]

Can you try getting your settlement in debt and seeing if you can pay it off

[safe quarry]

I just started up the game and on the load screen i got the 'units received'

[zenith perch]

Or at least the timer reduced

[safe quarry]

but here's the odd part

there was two overlapping voices

[wind panther]

I don't see a feature to pay debt

[safe quarry]

the usual female one and a male one

[arctic bough]

ooh?

neato

telaman incoming?

[river surge]

So there's probably more stuff we don't know about yet that's in the notes

[safe quarry]

i think the voice was a glitch tho i was still on the star scape

but it was definitely two voices and we know a male voice is coming

[tepid iris]

On the website, what is usually the difference between release log and news

[safe quarry]

ooooh!

[tepid iris]

these two confuse me tbh

[wind panther]

Thanks for the tip

[safe quarry]

yes there is an option

[arctic bough]

yes, however the update is focused on settlements so if you dont care for them dont get ur hopes up

[safe quarry]

yes i just saw that

too ❤️

[arctic bough]

VOCALS SLIDER OMGGGGGGGG

[mental socket]

first time there's an update that entirely ignores one platform. Unless switch got settlements now

[safe quarry]

yes we have a voice now too

[mortal granite]

Graaa

[river surge]

Well currently am not vond with old

[wind panther]

Yeah, someone was just bitching about that the other day as a HUUUUGE problem with NMS

[zenith perch]

Oh nice, W QoL

[quartz thistle]

For the information
The building in which there's the portal is called heartbeat of a new atlantid

[mental socket]

So does our character now grunt and stuff xD
Also how's the other exosuit voices?

[zenith perch]

What does the male suit sound like

what is player vocalizations btw?

We don't vocalize

[quartz thistle]

You can check out the individual settlers

[safe quarry]

yes i just sprinted until i was out of breath

[wind panther]

Can't preview the voices, sadly

[safe quarry]

and you can hear yourself panting

[tepid iris]

I mean update is just pushed to Steam, other platforms will follow

[gusty stream]

WHAT

[river surge]

Has a new story path been added ?

[wind panther]

Did we have this before?

[heavy light]

WAIT REALLY!!!!!!????

[gusty stream]

Every Telamon customitzable

[heavy light]

LETS GO

[gusty stream]

Ye we did

[zenith perch]

That's not new afaik gumsk

[heavy light]

It is

[ebon spoke]

So I guess we have a very good chance of getting a Switch 2 version with settlements, if they focused the whole update on them

[wind panther]

Ok, I'm not left handed, so I didn't know

[arctic bough]

woah awesome

[heavy light]

oh wrong one

nvm

[zenith perch]

Nono I know the voice thing is new

[heavy light]

but

[native carbon]

Update drop?

What are the patch notes

[heavy light]

FUCK TELAMON!!!!

[quaint mason]

Not released yet

[zenith perch]

in game blurb says settlements update

its called nms beacon

[heavy light]

NEVER AGAIN WILL I BE FORCED TO HEAR IT

[meager parcel]

Not up yet

[native carbon]

I KNEW IT HAHAHAH

[mental socket]

was added year or two ago

[native carbon]

I mean the picture

In game

The little pop up

[arctic bough]

yahoo!

[native carbon]

When u start the game with the title

[zenith perch]

UNITS RECEIVED UNITS RECEIVED UNITS RECEIVED UNITS RECEIVED

[quaint mason]

Mb

[zenith perch]

No free slots in ship inventory

No free slots in ship inventory

No free slots in suit inventory

[gritty mesa]

Who doesn’t want to hear that?

[heavy light]

TECHNOLOGY RECHARGED IS NEVER MORE

[zenith perch]

I hope it glitches out and plays comically loudly

I wanna hear what the male voice sounds like cause the base one is very quiet at times as is.

[river surge]

Anyone found anything more new ?

[dire cedar]

so far freighter harvest addon works, should have tried refiner speed up but didnt

[wind panther]

All the other settings look the same

[heavy light]

I've done so much testing with portals recently that i legit heard "Technology recharged" in my dream tonight

[zenith perch]

I'd probably avoid using mods till they get updated

Lets hope this update isn't too buggy

Last update wasn't horrendous tbh, only like 7 bugfixes ish

[arctic bough]

posting this again for peeps who missed it

[zenith perch]

Beyond was pain, 14 updates within 2 weeks ish.

[wind panther]

Yeah, I need to yank my MBIN mods to see if the rest work

[heavy light]

think it went to .64 or smthn

[arctic bough]

well just in case im playing on my non-permadeath save for now lol

[native carbon]

Liozio its your happy day!

[meager parcel]

Do it interloper, start the game with 60 outdated mods

[quartz thistle]

Posting the first image again, accompanied with where you claim the atlantid settlement, yes that's an autophage in the structure

[heavy light]

Yeah relics was 5.6 and the last bug fix was .64

[zenith perch]

it very much is, many years

[mortal granite]

That looks huge

[zenith perch]

Very rustic and grimy

[gritty mesa]

I need it

[zenith perch]

I will explode if they ruin my placed exocraft also

[dire cedar]

looks like your fast refiners works fine

just refined a few things and all good

[native carbon]

This update is fucking insane lets go???

Banger update

Any switch 2 news tho?

[dire cedar]

aside from settlement stuff whats else was updated?

[wind panther]

Wouldn't get Switch 2 news yet

[native carbon]

Tomorrow

[dire cedar]

Its the one thing Ive done absolutely nothing with yet

[river surge]

Thats what I need to know

[quasi oyster]

Curious if it will be on S1.

[heavy light]

Let's hope switch 1 gets settlments now

[native carbon]

Oh yeah switch 1 lmao

[heavy light]

If not ima be slightly angy

[native carbon]

Hope u gonna enjoy beacon lmao

[dire cedar]

are settlements worth the time? I heard not so much

maybe this changes it

[wind panther]

I would expect it to be hard to fit an even more complicated settlement system onto Switch 1 when they couldn't put the old system on, but maybe

[river surge]

No

[runic mesa]

That would be nuts, if they got it working on OG Switch during the rework

[quasi oyster]

TBF - there’s not much you can do post-building it up. Just collect resources, add citizens, and defend against attacks

[zenith perch]

On non beacon nms no

On beacon nms, yes

[native carbon]

Hey switch players, u gonna love beacon 🤣

[zenith perch]

Settlements will always be a side thing but that's their design at base and always has been which is fine.

[arctic bough]

WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

new building style!!!

[quartz thistle]

large housing unit in the autophage settlement

[rare meadow]

I hear this in my dreams consistently

[heavy light]

If this update isn't on switch tho that probably means i won my pact

[quasi oyster]

Was saying for a while they could update the settlements to make them work on Swich. Shouldn’t be that hard considering they got capes to work - which technologically speaking may be more complicated, believe it or not.

[wind panther]

To s-class is also 20 minutes

[heavy light]

since my pact is no exped and i doubt theyd do an exped for something that isnt on all platforms

[native carbon]

Wait u can upgrade buildings now?! This is insane

[wind panther]

Yeah, I might actually be interested in working on settlements now

[heavy light]

Settlments can be S class!?

WUH

[zenith perch]

The Ws actually keep stacking up

Settlements were always able to be S class it was just really bloody hard to do.

[wind panther]

I don't know about settlement, I mean this building from A->S is 20 minutes

[quartz thistle]

Hello games is cooking every update

[native carbon]

@wind panther can u check if animals behave normal again? Recent patch broke em.

Their body dont react with the terrain around em.

Before vs. Now

[gritty mesa]

EVERYTHING MUST HAVE A CLASS

[wind panther]

No

[zenith perch]

I'm glad this overhaul era of nms exists

[gusty stream]

Anyone have audio of male telamon?

[zenith perch]

I heard people got it to s and it went back down

[quasi oyster]

Yeah, mine used to be S-Class… till an expedition killed my citizens off - and then it permanently became A-Class, regardless of maxing out citizens. >_<
