Guys, do we get to meet that one character with a gravitino ball for a head?
I just contacted Apollo for the first time.
am i even doing the new story?
i was doing those awakening "go to this planet signal and so on" and now its back to just travelling between atlas interfaces
rustic tundra
did you recive a comunacation when you left after finding the crash ship?>
rustic tundra
no. you find a crash ship, thats the start of the new story
to get that, you need to buy and instal some blueprints from a space station
uncut harness
so i need to do atlas path for a while then?
rustic tundra
i started the story after the first atlas
wide lagoon
so if i reset the simulation as part of the purge mission, does that end the game and reset all my progress
rustic tundra
as far as i could see. its same as going into the center of the galaxy
wide lagoon
ive heard that the purge isnt the end of the story so im confused
azure wedge
so guys I have rerolled my story without messing up artemis part
now I am at the part "reach galactic core"
but can I find a portal and glyphs before that
or should I go to the center
sounds counter intuitive
dim spire
you only have to warp 16 times
"only"
but you do not have to reach the galactic center like normal
dim spire
just warp towards the galactic center 16 times
azure wedge
all right
I will see what happens
during the story I got just enough of warp cells
I hope
dim spire
if you run out of thamium, attacking freighters is an easy way to get it
azure wedge
I did a speedrun
you don't even wanna know what tech I have
I literally built a base just to pass along in the story
and then gathered all plants and did parts on the run
my system was perfect for it
๐
wide lagoon
thamium is the bane of my existence. i can never get a surplus of it. i get 1000 iron before i get 100 thamium
azure wedge
it is a bane indeed
best part is to run out of thamium
while having life suport at 10% or sth
ofc another good part is running out of iron for pulse jet
mid long flight
come back just to find yourself mid way
spark remnant
@jaunty beacon I was stuck in that same issue. The artemis system was 192,000 my away from me. I went through my galaxies history and luckily found it, made a custom waypoint, and then did black hole roulette until I lucked out landing 15k light years away. From there I just followed my custom marker - which would randomly not even show up, or show up as a partial line way off course - until I got there. Between the horrible quest design that allows this to happen and a custom marker path that worked about 30% of the time, it was a nightmare to fix.
tawny yarrow
I found a planet last night that spawned those ringed computers all over its surface, learned all the lore they had, really awesome and interesting stuff, hope it has to do with future content as well. Really like the lore direction the game is headed in
dire mountain
@spark remnant damn. I read on reddit that its a common issue and HG are working on a fix for it. Im not about to travel all that way with only the stock hyperdrive lol
azure wedge
after losing my story to this bug I just did what I could best
gather all resources, get all parts possible for the mind arc
and then just crafted it by standing near artemis

carmine cosmos
@versed sable [q] lets you melee resources

Has anyone here finished the new quest chain? I need to ask a yes/no question.
carmine cosmos
@proper crest no but I'm pretty far?
versed sable
๐ฎ
proper crest
Thanks, @carmine cosmos .
carmine cosmos
It's ok
brave rapids
so uh
Ive got I think through the story
like, more o less
only thing left is getting to the centre
thats what its telling me to do
carmine cosmos
..?
rancid marsh
Is the center different now?
brave rapids
well it says at the centre is the final atlas interface
carmine cosmos
I have no idea @rancid marsh
brave rapids
this is "the first traveller" questline complete
also, how do you use portals normally?
and why did I see another traveller on board a freighter one time?
this is the spoilers channel Im guessing theres someone further than me
carmine cosmos
No idea why there was another traveller
brave rapids
like, looked like artemis
I heard someone else mention travellers at an outpost on a planet
carmine cosmos
You have to learn a lot of glyphs (don't know how yet) to use portals
sand jolt
I think that we, the fourth race being the Travellers, are most commonly found in Space Stations near either the center or near your original mission 'area'.
azure wedge
selling my firstborn child for some information about glyphs
chilly drift
Who felt bad when you found Artemis grave ? :c
wide lagoon
u find glyphs in caves, by scanning them i think. its never happenedto me tho
brave rapids
I just got 2 things by jumping
with the active mission "Purge"
each jump after it went active
it said ATLAS sequence recieved
and had an image of a new glyph in the bottom right
restive harbor
I've only found one glyph and it wasn't even in a cave
azure wedge
do not worry about that
brave rapids
I need someone who knows something
azure wedge
it is spooky nonetheless
chilly drift
Found one glyph after discovering random explorer grave 
azure wedge
so there's no "guaranteed" way of finding a glyph and doin the "sneaky" way of getting all of em?
brave rapids
srsly srsly tho
if youve completed the story
like, DM me or something
I have questions
brave rapids
people claim to have seen travellers about the place, also how does the multiplayer even work
Im at the bit
restive harbor
I just completed it yesterday
brave rapids
where it says go to the centre
chilly drift
i already met travellers (new race) but not online players
chilly drift
I need cyma and rubeum to complete atlas seed then finish the atlas quest :x
brave rapids
Ive not done the atlas path
chilly drift
but can't get last hyperdrive to go to blue star :X
brave rapids
only the other one
@restive harbor, can I just dm you for streamlineness purposes if youve finished
wide lagoon
im on the purge mission and i wanna do that optional objective that nada talked about (doing atlas path to remind it of life or something, im curious if it will impact the end of the story) but i cant find an anomaly, idk if its bad luck or something. i need to find an anomaly so i can track a closer atlas station cuz its on the other side of the galaxy. is there a trick to finding anomalies
restive harbor
sure
chilly drift
I met travellers in Factory and orbital station, randomly
So mad i wanted to build the object to ressurect Artemis but i need scientist base reciepe, but it's bugued :x
arctic dawn
@wide lagoon try setting the atlas path mission as main and then go into the galaxy map
solid plover
what's bugged about the scientist?
chilly drift
he told me to build a marker
I did it multiple times and lay it everytime, but the quest don't progress :/
solid plover
a beacon?
chilly drift
yea
solid plover
at your base?
chilly drift
yes
solid plover
hmm i just did it about 10m ago, old save too. haven't see anyone with that bug
chilly drift
But now i move on, warp into 3 black holes and doing atlas path; then when i'll discover a great system/planet i'll do my base again hoping for no bug
But I had already did this quest, just with the new update, all the NPC in my base dissapear and had to start everyting over
chilly drift
I already had a beacon, so i just deleted it on lay it again, but didn't work
solid plover
getting close to finishing scientist, and farmer
i had a beacon too, but then i added another
chilly drift
noice, get what you need to complete Artemis quest ;p
solid plover
try adding two
chilly drift
(now too late i'm to far)
solid plover
maybe you need to add back your original beacon, then another. yeah when you get back
can't you just warp back to your base?
chilly drift
my only fear is that I lost Artemis path, i'm so deep in the galaxy rn ;x
solid plover
i started the artemis path in my base system
uncut harness
I must say the new story is really well designed, maybe not difficult but still very involving
chilly drift
yes but i readed on reddit that if you travell far from artemis system it will be verry difficult to travell back, maybe HG has to do something with this :c
wide lagoon
@arctic dawn I no longer have an atlas path mission cuz it was replaced by the purge and I've had it on the whole time. Thx for helping tho
solid plover
i plan on saving my saves to usb from my ps4 once i redo all the base quests
just in case
wide lagoon
for those of u who are skeptical that travellers cant be encountered randomly
sweet idol
fly into space
night stirrup
I did ๐ฆ

then click X and see if you can answer a comunacation thingy

โฟ 16
night stirrup
been scanning, going back and forth from galaxy map to ship view, going out and in from station ๐ฆ
rustic tundra
and @wide lagoon regarding your picture of the Travller, does he also say some mambo-jumbo about blood?
the dialog is as if he killed and ate somthing, and he says he will give you the stuff
wide lagoon
@rustic tundra no but my character noticed blood. It looked like a hologram cuz it's eyes did not meet mine and said something like "I had to do it. There was no profit u can take everything. I'll tell the family"
rustic tundra
so yha, the same thing, its a random encounter thingy
i want to a shelther, and loaded a save sevral times to try and get a good multi tool, and in some of the times, a random "Traveller" appered in the shelter insted of the usal NPC
lilac hare
gotta ask something
i know that i have to "earn" the use of portals
i suppose i'll do that doing the main quest
so i have to go to the center of the galaxy?
or there is another way?
uncut harness
Can someone help me? I crafted and used the mind arc on Artemis and now my objective just says "seek help for Artemis, answers may be found among the stars"
But nothing is happening
gloomy pollen
you need to warp
uncut harness
I have, nothing changed
safe pine
it's full of lore
digital lotus
Yup
Planet i was on they spawned like every 300 ft
Got all the lore i think because i no longer receive prompts when i approach them
I really like the lore attached to them too
safe pine
yea it's full of them i checked like 5 of them
digital lotus
Time travel? Im down.
safe pine
the planet it was on was weird af
digital lotus
Yeah mine were on one of those gas escaping planets
With the fumes coming out of the ground
digital lotus
I think they appear on abandoned worlds
safe pine
digital lotus
@gloomy pollen just means radiation
safe pine
the planet had those pillars
digital lotus
Niiice
safe pine
it's full of them like seriously full
digital lotus
Ill post a screenshot in screenshots
uncut harness
Any input on what choice of galaxy I should make?
What galaxy did you guys choose at the end?
digital lotus
I hear the difference in color leads to more of a certain type of planet
Like blue is more lush and peaceful worlds
Red is more extreme and dangerous
But it could just be a rumor
night stirrup
I already found grid planet, obliterating planet and tire planet
oh, and bubble too
the last two were my two visits to Atlas under the Artemis quest
and the first two is gone forever >.> since I started a new game
the grid planet is beautiful and useless
rustic tundra
just asking, what is a "grid" planet?
digital lotus
Giant hexagon workd
night stirrup
the planets where there are planets that look like grids coming out, and the soil is made of ... hexagones
if you dig down using terrain editor / grenade you still find hexagones
and you can stand on top of the floating alien treee
uncut harness
so you guys are still in the first galaxy, you haven't gone to the end and chosen another one yet?
night stirrup
.> I am still in the quest
digital lotus
Nope but i know about it
uncut harness
I'm still unsure what to do at this point
night stirrup
http://i.imgur.com/8wEh3PS.png grid planet
uncut harness
I'm gonna wait until there's more information
digital lotus
Yeah that works too
But from what i hear you can use portals to travel between universes
night stirrup
wait... universes?
uncut harness
between galaxies you mean?
digital lotus
So worst case scenario you could return
night stirrup
Thought just planets?
digital lotus
Yeah
uncut harness
has that really been confirmed?
digital lotus
From Euclid and Hilbert
night stirrup
the "galaxies" - are not those parallels based on null's story?
digital lotus
Not yet but from what ive read in posts and such from people playing creative
uncut harness
got a link I can check out?
digital lotus
I might, it was amongst a bunch of other reddit browsing ive been doing on the game
Ill look
uncut harness
thanks!
gloomy pollen
i went to the blue galaxy
night stirrup
eh...tranquil?
gloomy pollen
yeah
night stirrup
I will probably go for ancenstral
digital lotus
Me too
night stirrup
?
harsh gull
In these data logs
night stirrup
what planet?
harsh gull
So I found this really weird planet, with these plants that look like those metal things they put opn beaches in the war
I have no easy way to show you a screenshot of them cause I'm playing in a VM
Will do later
night stirrup
okay
harsh gull
But at every save point
There's this gigantic spinning ring
YOu can download some datalogs that talk in cryptic terms about these other travellers
Kk I can send some pictures now, hold on a sec
My ship is there for scale
digital lotus
Yeah i found the same planet type, posted in #nms-photomode-gallery
Very awesome and odd planet
harsh gull
I want to see if anything happens if I read all the data logs
digital lotus
Nothing does
harsh gull
Which is what I'm trying to do atm
harsh gull
How many were there?
digital lotus
Yeah its about the histories of the species in NMS and the travelers. Also some interesting stuff about time travel in there that Im hoping has some game implications in the future
Definitely write it up and post it though, i wanna see where other peoples end because eventually i was unable to read anymore computers
It was 5 in the morning when i found them, i thought about writing it down but i was too tired lol
There was one bit that stuck out to me too, they mention finding a "secret" in the program, "a world made of glass". I was wondering if it was an actual place or a metaphor but its really interesting how they word that particular terminal lore
sullen pulsar
for a more in depth look at these, watch this and skip to 8:05:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oRTJxLxs9M
just watch what happens with the planet
arctic dawn
@digital lotus the world of glass is actually mentioned in the lore a few times
sullen pulsar
he finds one covered in these, they go on a loop of around 20~ (i didnt count) but every single one is different, then it loops over.
arctic dawn
In the abandoned building logs
digital lotus
๐ค thats interesting
sullen pulsar
because waking titan is always relevant
arctic dawn
It is pretty important to the NMS lore
digital lotus
Also it mentioned being contacted from the future
sullen pulsar
yep
sullen pulsar
waking titan focused partially on time travel, but most of that stuff is on the actual lore.
anyways, go to the vid i showed, skip to 8:05:00, the planet's got a whole lot of 'em, and it's a new planet type.
and the music there is beyond creepy
to be specific, it's a Forbidden type planet. by far my favorite ones. (they have awesome music to them.)
sullen pulsar
forbidden, bubble, Terraforming Disaster (i think it's disaster? might be a different word), those two with weird shapes, deserts, and like 1-2 more. those are all new.
bubble technically isnt a new type of planet but it's new nonetheless,
so it sorta counts.
and the hexagon.
the god damn hexagon.
arctic dawn
The hexagon is so cool
sullen pulsar
I STILL LIKE THE FORBIDDEN BETTER
arctic dawn
It was speculated that it was actually the world of glass
sullen pulsar
(giant floating iron pillars.)
arctic dawn
But I dont think so
digital lotus
๐ค
sullen pulsar
crashed freighter lore is the new abandoned base lore
arctic dawn
The traveler is attracted to its core while the cristals harm him
And he cant stop til he die
I remember that being mentioned in a log as a warning, was pretty creepy
sullen pulsar
like, in freighters sometimes it says something along the lines of EVERY SINGLE GODDAMN SENTINEL destroying EVERY LIFE FORM IN EXISTENCE within 16 minutes. (16, once again.)
like a big planned attack.
digital lotus
Id be willing to pay for the next dlc
sullen pulsar
crashed freighters are the new abandoned base confirmed
digital lotus
If they needed it
arctic dawn
Yeah, I have the feeling that with each update the lore will become more interesting and WT will be each time more relevant
sullen pulsar
nah but could you imagine the sentinels planning an attack on EVERY SINGLE PLANET and pulling off a slaughter of every major species ALL within 16 minutes? that would be epic but also terrifying
spOOked
they clearly have the resources to pull it off, anyways.
arctic dawn
There are still a bunch of commands on WT unused, glyphs locked, we still dont know what the CSD designations are for and Emily said we would see again
digital lotus
Yeah youre right
sullen pulsar
yeah
waking titan is definetley not over yet
not at all
excuse my spelling
rip
arctic dawn
They also said that we shouldnt think of WT as a "linear" thing
digital lotus
Yeah could be haha
sullen pulsar
time is linear, but WT/NMS both mention time travel, which eliminates the need for time to be linear
arctic dawn
tbh the story still left a lot of misteries unexplained...
sullen pulsar
my god
arctic dawn
There must be more
sullen pulsar
i have two discord servers that are VERY active open right now
so many alerts
oh god i gotta disable alerts
brb
ah
nevermind
gotta git reddy for dinner
cya later
dont disobey the atlas

torn aspen
hi, I found the first monolith that should give me some of the glyphs but it says that I need to free up space in my inventory to receive them, although I do have free slots... did it happen to you?
sullen pulsar
wait remember my dudes go to 8:05:00 in this vid! the planet has lots of lore stuff, EEEEE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oRTJxLxs9M
formal knot
Has anyone got a video of the atlas path ending in 1.3?
@sullen pulsar What is that monument at 8:50?
harsh gull
@digital lotus I don't think you found them all
warm lance
i just passed through a portal and reached a very VERY hot planet (300c+) and had to go to my ship
harsh gull
You said there were ten or so, but I just found no. 20
warm lance
wtf
harsh gull
The text is getting super creepy as well, addressing me as well as the Reader
Or so I assume
digital lotus
It was so late i couldnt tell you what the last message i got was
harsh gull
ERROR ERROR ERROR ATLAS THEY SEE YOU
digital lotus
Ok lol
Then you right
It didnt seem like it was done, I was like in the middle of what he was telling me, hope my game isnt broken lol
uncut harness
so how does the artmis path end?
digital lotus
@harsh gull is the world of glass mentioned again at all in the later messages?
harsh gull
Haven't seen it yet
And I think I'm finished
They started repeating themselves
Almost exactly, except for the name on the object (which is also the label of the text box), assume that's procedurally generated
last iron
"are you ready? you might not be returning to that base of yours for a while" uhhhhhhhhhh
digital lotus
Well the fact yours were repeating means mine bugged out last night
Because i would approach a ring terminal and it wouldnt have a prompt. So ill have to try again later, perhaps I was tired and just kept coming to the same ones lol.
harsh gull
If it doesn't have a prompt then it means you already did it
I forgot to record the first 3 (thankfully they repeated) and when I realized right after 3 I tried to go back but it wasn't lit up and there was no prompt
Made a reddit post about it
Will probably sit at like 5 upvotes because it's tl;dr but oh well
hidden spoke
So.. I got to say.. I'm loving the hell out of this new story update. It breaks the 4th wall so much... and the characters are surprisingly relatable. It's so good, and uncomfortably close to reality at the same time. It's a really weird experience.
digital lotus
Yup
The new lore is ๐๐ป
And the direction the story is headed has me super excited for the future
hollow hull
im about to talk about the ending
Leave now
so i made it to the end where you have tobmake the final choice
What happens if i refuse?
harsh gull
Dunno
All I know is if you follow the atlas you get a new galaxy
Try refusing I wanna see what happens
hidden spoke
I just had my second visit with the Atlas... and I'm sitting here in suspense wondering where the story is going. It's really shocking that they were able to turn this game around in such a significant way that it went from being one of the most hated games, to one of the best games in my library lol
stuck hinge
anyone know the coords for a glyph grave on PC?
hidden spoke
and wtf! The atlas is trying to kill me! It put me on a planet with Traveller eating deer!
harsh gull
the predators do way too much damage lol
had one giant fucker that took half of my health in one hit
wide lagoon
@stuck hinge i think coords only refer to a specific system not a specific location within that system
covert oyster
So I have a question about an atlas interface, I got to the one with the three races and it showed no text at all. Am I supposed to have something or is this a bug
It also showed another atlas location after the fact on the galaxy map.
wide lagoon
is there a way to end the story without deleting all my progress. in the sense that reaching the center of the galaxy wins the game but resets ur progress. im just curious if i can end the game and continue to progress with my current equipment, ship, multi-tool, etc.
gloomy pollen
you dont lose it. just starts off broken
shy grove
wide lagoon
@gloomy pollen so if i wipe the simulation it wont restart. seems counter intuitive
wide lagoon
how do i get a path to a new atlas station. my current one is on the other side of the galaxy. ive told nada twice now that i want to follow the path of the atlas, but it doesnt relocate a closer one. im on the purge mission if that makes a difference
tawdry vapor
Does anyone who is on their second galaxy know what the Green line is supposed to take you to? It's for the "just enjoy the galaxy" mission but considering it doesn't take you to the center, I wonder where it's supposed to lead, if anywhere.
spark cedar
Hey guys, I'm doing the Artemis questline and now that I have to speak to one of the 3 alien races it says my reputation isn't high enough - how high does it have to be?
harsh aspen
@spark cedar you just need to raise it I think 4 times? It doesn't matter what level your rep is when you start, you'll always need to up it 4 times I believe
So I got to the final atlas interface and it asked me to reset the simulation and I said no, thinking I'd get more dialogue, but it just teleported me out on to a planet. It said I can change my mind but how do I get back?
slate epoch
so I found the monoliath(sp?) having just started out the game and doing the main quest. it asked me do I want to explore or search for answer
I chose answers, and atlas arises mission was initiated
is the original main quest done?!
uncut harness
what
atomic ibex
How long is the artemis plot-line?
Its pretty interesting, but the back and forth its making it quite tedious but i dont know how far im in that questline. I did the guilds missoins, and have to talk to Null again.
harsh gull
have you crafted the mind arc yet
glacial forge
Hoooooly crap I was not excepting the moral dilemmas in the Artemis plot line
harsh gull
cause that's probably like 30% of it; takes fucking ages
atomic ibex
I did hero of time.
glacial forge
What did you all pick; I decided to upload them, but I told them as soon as I could ๐ฆ
atomic ibex
I decided to upload, and didnt tell the truth,
glacial forge
I haven't gotten too far past that point but I figure that way I can let them make their choice
It felt really sad though
glacial forge
No Mans Sky does a good job of making you feel lonely
And then they give you a friend
harsh gull
Idk about you guys but my line of thinking was that if the universe is a simulation anyway what does it matter if you're in another one
atomic ibex
Its a simply thing to do, no real consequences + time invested, so i can see why most upload Artemis, because the travel was mean to "save" in some way and to not let it go.
glacial forge
My thinking was that if I uploaded and told them, then they would be able to make their own choice
harsh gull
Yeah they can always ask to be unplugged I suppose
But even one system is a lot. Especially without the sentinels he could start civilization
indigo forge
Quick question.. I don't WANT spoilers.. But I've followed a bit of the new Artemis path and love it. I'm just about the start the ATLAS path. Just found my first Interface (before even ever finding an anomoly)... Should I folloow the Atlas path? Will that interfere with the Artemis path? Or can I do both?
glacial forge
You can do both I believe
Though you may not want to travel too far for the stations
harsh gull
Do the artemis questline up to a certain point
It takes you really far away
and you don't want your interface to be 100kly away from you
Idk if nada and polo would work then
glacial forge
Doesn't it just find the nearest interface always?
atomic ibex
Yeah.
glacial forge
I know when I did that part the interface was only like 1.2k away
indigo forge
Ok, so starting the Atlas path won't screw up the Artemis path. That's what I wanted to be sure of. Was hoping they weren't exclusive, at least at the beginning.
atomic ibex
You can do both yeah.
Well.
So anyone here did the whole artemis quest line? i mean, after te mind arc and so on.
harsh gull
Yep
atomic ibex
Because i dont know how far im into
harsh gull
Where did you get to
atomic ibex
I did the guilds missions, and have to talk with Null again.
harsh gull
For all three species?
atomic ibex
Yeah.
harsh gull
Urk I'm trying to remember
atomic ibex
Explorer, MErcenary and Merchant.
harsh gull
My one complaint with the storyline is that it's really repetetive at times
It's like
Go and find this out
atomic ibex
After that, i have to talk to null about 16
harsh gull
GO back to the holo transmitter
and repeat
I think you're close to the end
I seem to remember that being really quite close actually
atomic ibex
Thats my biggest complain, im in the plot, like its pretty interesting.
But the back and forth is making it tedious
harsh gull
Especially for a game about exploring
atomic ibex
Any grindfest after the 3 guilds?
harsh gull
I was like "this planet is cool" before I realized I'd been there 100 times before
Not that I can remember, really
It's all weird shit after that I think
whole barn
You'll grind warp cells
harsh gull
OH
That
is really annoying
Yeah you have to warp a fuckload of times for no reason other than to increment a counter
Start making the cells now
atomic ibex
Woot...
harsh gull
Well you can already probs guess how many times right
atomic ibex
Yeah
atomic ibex
It doesnt matter if i do in circles.
harsh gull
Well, the objective is something like 'progress towards the center', so I'd do that just in case
Plus it doesn't matter anyway because it's the end of the back and forth really
After that you never have to step foot in a holotransmitter again iirc
atomic ibex
Hum, great. So cells now.
Glad i saved all the antimatter and the previous recipes in my base.
harsh gull
Have you done atlas yet
atomic ibex
I did before 1.3, if it reset in 1.3, then no.
harsh gull
The early stations give two free warp cells. If you have an upgraded warp drive you can go from station to station with 1 jump
Usually
I don't think it did
Also idk if it was just because I did the artemis story first, but I never had to ask nada and polo for atlas stations
atomic ibex
I have a mission for Atlas though, so i have something left to do at least.
harsh gull
Immediately after visiting one the next one was given to me
atomic ibex
Thank you vm, i was burnout a bit after the guilds, so i wanted to be sure to continue
solar sedge
Someone found those atlas heads?

hi, I found the first monolith that should give me some of the glyphs but it says that I need to free up space in my inventory to receive them, although I do have free slots... did it happen to you?

in order to get the mission, u need a base

azure pumice
Hey guys. Im on the atlas path. Now, so far i have gotten 3 recipes. The red one, green one and then the blue one. Now i visited another atlas interface and got a recipe (dawns end) but it requires that I have dark matter orb for which i have no recipe. Is that the normal dark matter and hg just put a wrong icon?
chilly drift
dark matter is a receipe you should have thx to atlas interface
azure pumice
I dont :/
chilly drift
probably a bug or you didn't recognize the receipe
azure pumice
Nah i got the dawns end recipe but no dark matter. Im just following the path how the game prompts me to do it
native frost
At what point does the atlas quest warp you somewhere?
chilly drift
what you need to build dawns
native frost
I'm hesitant to visit this next station, I'm up to Dawns End
native frost
Okay so it won't take me unwillingly?
chilly drift
I have the final receipe and i didn't got wrap
native frost
Coolio
azure pumice
I ahve captured nanode, Englobed shade and nonspheric orb recipes. The dawns end requires 100 gold and dark matter
chilly drift
but i didn't build the last ressource yet and lay it on the atlas
hasty bear
i had the atlas patch from the moment i started the game post patch 1.3, after some while doing artemis quest i have no more that quest in my log, weird
azure pumice
So im bugged XD great
chilly drift
every seed need 200 of something.... ._.
azure pumice
yeah 200 gold. Thats beside the point here...
chilly drift
200Ir -> 200Cu ->200Ni -> 200Al ->200Au ->200Em -> 200 Cy -> 200 Ru -> 200 Vi
that's all you need to build the last seed
azure pumice
The game skipped the 200 al recipe so i cant
chilly drift
maybe try to find an another interface
azure pumice
Yeah Im on it ๐
chilly drift
Good Luck ๐
azure pumice
I know a location i havent visited yet. Maybe thats why the game skipped the recipe
chilly drift
btw can i ask how you get a role in this discord serveR ?
azure pumice
It might be there. Fortunately i just upgraded my warp drives so going back will be easy ๐
Role? you mean why my name is different color? you jsut have to be active here
chilly drift
I just want to show i'm on Ps4 :x
chilly drift
Cool it worked thx โค
hasty bear
did someone have the same problem as me ? havinf the atlas quest activated first time then after doing artemin quest it disapears from quest log,
or is it tied to artemis quest line ?
chilly drift
I did Artemis quest
safe pine
it's not tied
hasty bear
i only have a quest related to atlas path saying " go explore the galaxy" , not literally i have the game in other language but thta's the one i have
safe pine
you can do either separately
chilly drift
stopped when i need to build the object to ressurect him, then I did atlas path (actually collecting the final object to complete the atlas path)
hasty bear
ok, i dont have that quest on my loh anymore, weird
you basically have to go to the atlas stations right ?
chilly drift
go to anomaly and find the atlas path
hasty bear
ok, thanks , i'll try hen i get home ^^
uncut harness
Here's a problem I can't seem to get around, I'm on that early mission where I have to find a Vy'Keen multitool engineer to upgrade my kit before I can work with Apollo but my on screen objective said the engineer is in another system but my galactic map says they're in the system I'm currently in and it says that wherever I warp.
uncut harness
What did you do?
empty yew
I'll write it up for you, bear with me
uncut harness
Thanks my dude
azure pumice
Anyone got a link for nms save editor? If my fix doesnt work ill just edit the recipe into my save
empty yew
azure pumice
Tnx!
chilly drift
@uncut harness just buy a multi tool upgrade then leave the orbital station, it's not a bug just they certainly forgot to add a specification on the quest
uncut harness
Are you kidding
Just any multitool?
My galactic map led me 6 warps away before giving me that bug
empty yew
This bug appeared for the new 1.3 quest for me. I was requiered to go to specific system. Galactic map also tells me I'm already reached my destination (but definately I'm not). But I was a bit lucky. I remember quest mark on galactic map it was near my home base system, and I wasn't going there becouse I wanted to go through black hole, which I did, warped for like 700,000 LY, and ran into this bug. So then I teleported to my home base, opened galactic map, seeked for quest mark on another sustems, found it, warped there, got it done.
@uncut harness ^ that's for you
@chilly drift I got this bug way more after multitool upgrade quest
uncut harness
Okay so when I get home I'm going to go to an orbital station, buy a cheap upgrade then warp home and see if either one works
azure pumice
@sleek dragon Its best we speak here. Its jsut a progression for the main quest story line
you ahve to warp 16 times for the quest to start going forwards
sleek dragon
Oh i see . Ok thx for the info
uncut harness
@empty yew @chilly drift Thanks for the help!
azure pumice
@empty yew didnt work. Im gonna have to edit my save file
I recieved a photic jade recipe form atlas. Still missing the one i need
empty yew
@azure pumice sorry yo hear that

No biggie. Save editor easy fix

Is the Mind Arc the last thingI need to do in this sodding story?
azure pumice
Nope
atomic ibex
There is much more grindfest for you to DO!
tidal sedge
Great. I really wish there was an option to opt out of the story ๐
uncut harness
so, the guild missions things where you have to talk to representatives (patterns in time). I 'finished' that but it keeps telling me to speak to the merchant guild rep. but I've got no waypoint to do so. Any ideas?
Completed all the sidequests but it still tells me to talk to this guy, but that also it's in another system

tidal agate
What happens at the center now?
cunning crest
People here saying that Artemis / Atlas can be done seperately?
Does anybody else have a "activate a portal" questline for artemis?
I get to a portal, activate it (I have no glyphs? but it activates) warps to a new world and then I'm loaded into an atlas station and told to talk to Atlas... which I can't... because I don't have heart of sun or w/e it is
wide lagoon
Is there an alternate ending to the purge where u don't reset the simulation.
rancid marsh
In the Ghost in the Machine quest, I can't find Apollo's contact anywhere.
tidal agate
Answer my question!
arctic dawn
@wide lagoon yup
wide lagoon
@arctic dawn it's done by following the atlas path. Correct?
arctic dawn
You dont need it
Just refuse to reset the galaxy at the end of the Artemis storyline
atomic ibex
Farming thamio is silly T.T
edgy shoal
What's the difference between the four orbs at the end of the Purge?
atomic ibex
WTF
What is the 4 orbs thing at the end of the path?
Errr. someone can tell me if i cant go back after the purge ending?
Like,, my base and all that things?
surreal crypt
@tidal agate If you get to the center without completing any Story you just get thrown at the border of Euclid again
atomic ibex
Arent they 4 new galaxies?
surreal crypt
@atomic ibex What
atomic ibex
In one of the ending, they make you choose between 4 new galaxies? idk, iwhat to do or if i will lose my progress if i do.
wide lagoon
@arctic dawn I did that and it just said that I had plenty of time to explore the current simulation and that I could come back and change my mind. Is that what u meant by ending.
solid plover
anyone use the rocket launcher?
timber dawn
only on small asteroids myself atm, to be fair just started up a new save
carmine blaze
I haven't been able to get a blueprint for it yet, been using the infra-knife accelerator

@wide lagoon yes

What do u guys mean. Don't start the game with the rocket launcher

Guys has anyone found a fix to the Apollo's contact glitch?

gray bluff
Experimental update seems to have fixed all my story glitches.
You may try it if you are on PC and haven't yet
uncut harness
so are the 4th race actually us or are they pretending to be us?
tight viper
Is there a draw back for either option: reset simulation or refuse the Atlas? I must be close to the end and don't want to screw something up.
terse canopy
@gray bluff how do i get that update?
quick fossil
Has anyone managed to do the "find a mutitool technology trader" in the Apollo mission line??
I've had to give up I'm sure it's bugged. I've been to two systems that are vy'keen as the mission says (including the one the galaxy map took me too with the exclaimation point) and spent all my nanites and still the mission won't move on.
I'm loving this update but I'm done now. My save just feels like it's becoming more corrupt with every bit of progress I make.
tight viper
Red- Raging. Green- Tranquil. Blue-Ancient And Light Blue- Imperfect....does anyone know where these go and if there are actual differences????
gray bluff
@terse canopy right click game in steam. Go to "betas" tab. Type "3xperimental" in the box
terse canopy
@gray bluff thanks!
gray bluff
Glad to help
idle forge
so uh I read that there is a new race? I just got the game and had paid attention at launch, was saddened by there being just 3 races, but I am somewhat hyped for the new race? what's known about them so far?
also furthermore from what I've read there's an ARG? shocked, but I am also interested in what the new endings are, as the update notes seem to imply there's more to see of the game than just heading to the center of the universe
idle forge
Hello?

Hello Games

yes that is the name of the company that made the game

I already knew that

k lemme know when you have a response
north chasm
Anyone else stuck with Nada and Polo's ship not warping in??
like... during "The First Traveller" quest, after you make the mind arc and use it
wide lagoon
@north chasm i believe the fix for that is to save and restart ur game and it should appear
if u completed the atlas path before reaching the end of the atlas rises questline, would there be another ending. Nada hints at this by saying at the start of the purge mission to try to teach the atlas the joy of life by completing the path, and maybe u could save the atlas without resetting the sim. i wanted to test this but thegame is broken cuz u cant follow the atlas path after the purge mission. was curious if anyone else managed to do this
dusk totem
WHAT
idle forge
see I asked questions about this type of thing
I have some critiques of Atlas given what I know, but that's more in regards to being somewhat upset with setting details
north chasm
tHANK YOU FOR SPOILING THAT
fading vortex
MAJOR SPOILERS: What do I do with Artemis? Upload them or kill them?
fading vortex
Right?
But really. Not sure wether I should end artemis' suffering or put him in a simulation
idle forge
is Artemis rly suffering? haven't gotten to that point but like
it really depends on what we define as suffering
fading vortex
I mean. He kinda is. Freaks out, thinks he's still alive, doesn't know where he is, wants to be saved, thinks there's people around trying to get to him...
idle forge
is he (interesting to have a he/his pronoun'd character be named artemis btw) really in pain, are they asking to die?
ahhh
well it depends
if the game let you talk it out, you could idk
fading vortex
I read Artemis Fowl as a child, it's just how I associate the name
idle forge
"hey uh, I want to let you know that you did die, but (lore) happened, and I want to let you have the choice of being in a simulation and all, or if you want to do something else"
like
it doesn't sound fun to experience, but from the sound of it Artemis has some form of mental illness, and euthanization of a sentient person isn't right unless they ask for it
fading vortex
I..... I mean this in the nicest way but I feel as though you aren't too far into his story
idle forge
oh I definitely am not
wide lagoon
@north chasm uh welcome to the spoiler chat i guess 
idle forge
I'm entirely new to this and came here for info on the newest sentients, how I can hang out with them, and how many new endings the game has had since a year ago
wide lagoon
@wide lagoon that wasnt meant for u that was just an actual question that i said right after i told u that sry
idle forge
however I also have objections as to how the handling of euthanizing a sentient person is handled in this game, from the sound of it
wide lagoon
@idle forge well now there are multiple ways to reach the endings, but the endings are still basically the same, reset the simulation or dont.
fading vortex
Lol. He's sorta /dead/. This is like an echo of him. He thinks he's alive, but he's not. I can either put his mind in a simulation and let him live there, or "euthanize" it. If you put his mind in the simulation, he will experience joy but if he finds out he's dead then "it may experience great pain and suffering. Alone for all eternity"
wide lagoon
@fading vortex i just killed her cuz i know i would rather die than play nms for eternity
fading vortex
xD A fucking plus
idle forge
ew
simulation
so from my understanding the game is just one big simulation, the whole "the universe is a simulation" twist
based on what you're saying there
wide lagoon
@idle forge the artemis questline really just added a more flushed out story to reach the ending but its still the same endings basically
@idle forge yes that is the whole premise
idle forge
that's just fucking sad
dusk totem
I uploaded Artemis
wide lagoon
@idle forge yeah u arent even given the option to break free from the sim and become ur own entity
dusk totem
I also am assuming Artemis is a she
idle forge
"sorry guys no happy endings are allowed"
dusk totem
Though thats probably wrong
wide lagoon
@dusk totem artemis is a greek goddess so yeah
dusk totem
Oh I was right, well looks like i missed a few questions on my history test today lol
idle forge
like from my perspective and knowledge Atlas is the only super power. a singularity bent on keeping everything exactly the same as possible, and essentially a Lotus Machine, but worse in that it doesn't even allow full on settlements to happen, just people placing a house down or living on a space station
dusk totem
Atlas is basically us and the simulation is the sims
wide lagoon
@idle forge yeah, its a shit simulation. thats why i killed her
idle forge
like I'm all for ecological conservation, but from the sound of it Atlas is an eco-terrorist who just has the perspective of "it's ok if I'm the one to deplete a planet of it's resources since I'm the one protecting the universe"
dusk totem
Best fucking metaphor
idle forge
I don't believe in non-consensual euthanization, so that's a really bad way to handle it like
"you can either kill this person who's in a really bad mental state rn, or you can force them to go through the exact same things you are going through ad infinitum until they figure out their reality and kill themselves permanently"
wide lagoon
thats a good point artemis will eventually find out and probably kill herself
idle forge
and from my assumption this is a scenario of
dusk totem
I just told Artemis that she was in a simulation
idle forge
"all sentient species that go extinct will become a aprt of The Atlas project"
dusk totem
wait
idle forge
that's my new shitty headcanon
wide lagoon
imo what ever is waiting for us after death is probably better than NMS, even if its nothing, so thats why i killed Artemis
that was an unintentional roast on NMS
idle forge
a part of me is just "how about I just ignore every part of Atlas lore entirely, and just asusme that this is a fun little space sim-lite where I can set up a house on an alien planet and drink tea with aliens and watch the funny animals walk around, and think that all the flying robots are just abandoned orphans and that there are ~100+ alien races in this galaxy rather than just 3(+2)"
wide lagoon
@idle forge its not that easy to lie to urself
idle forge
like I think NMS could be a gr8 afterlife if the devs had delivered on not only their promises, but made a compelling narrative that both is expansive and
huny
I did it with Elite Dangerous with it's shitty ass lore
wide lagoon
^
idle forge
and other games that failed to deliver
like you don't just implement a "universe is a simulation" plot like this, and you ESPECIALLY don't have it end with "woops you made it to the center time to go back ok now"
or idk
have a mental illness and euthanization plot line that involves just forcing someone to die permanently or endure what you're going through
fossil hearth
So - kind of curious since I never really did the whole storyline thing before .... just met Ana/Polo for the first time ... now if I take a black hole, will it put me in one of the systems where I can get the odd crystal like multi tool, or would I need to just find them randomlyh as I go?
Not really intersted in making it to the center asap, rather I just want to see and collect nifty stuff along the way xD
idle forge
I'm probably missing out on the full possible conversation
wide lagoon
thats the worst part about nms in my opinion, they didnt even plan on giving the game a narrative. and even now the narrative is short and simple
idle forge
what
NO FUCK THIS
there are way better ways to do a non-narrative story
Spore is better at it, when it has a stronger narrative than NMS
wide lagoon
@fossil hearth the black hole only takes u closer to the center, nothing else. ur just gonna have to grind to get one of those
idle forge
viva pinata is better narrative wise as a sandbox or narrative-lite game
fossil hearth
Okey
dusk totem
So
idle forge
PLEASE let me have pets, let me domesticate things let me walk around a ship or have a living room
my perspective on what an ethical afterlife simulation could be
dusk totem
In what mission does this game kick into the mind fuckery shit like those terminals
or when is the earliest I can access them
idle forge
let people not be forced into an endless loop of flying, shooting, and grinding
let people live casually and happily
and do death with dignity
wide lagoon
@idle forge well the goal in viva pinata and most sandbox games is simply to prosper, while NMS is about racing to the finish line and u play a nomadic lifestyle while most sandbox survivals make u live in a certain area and continually fortify that. NMS needs a narrative
@dusk totem what terminals. u mean the portals
@dusk totem or holoterminus
dusk totem
I thought it was in this channel
idle forge
honestlylike
dusk totem
I meant the one planet full of lore
idle forge
nomadic lifestyle
see now I understand to an extent
BUT
this game is shitty about nomadic lifestyles too
and
racing to the finish line
and nomadic lifestyles, or sandbox simulations... they don't really mix
wide lagoon
@dusk totem one planet full of lore???? there is a weird planet that u visit several times for 10 seconds but nothing happens ther
idle forge
like I think whoever wrote the plot thought that spore's get to galaxy center was a really good plot line and that there needs to be more content for
sorry typo
*less content for
dusk totem
@wide lagoon yeah, I wanted to know if I could visit there again for a extended period of time
idle forge
I mean I do think that it's great how the procedural generation has at least some basis in biology by giving traits
wide lagoon
@dusk totem well i dont think theres much there other than floating pillars of iron. u might be able to encounter it as an exotic planet like my soccer ball planet
dusk totem
Someone got there tho
idle forge
Ideas for NMS: have learning languages be a biiit more relevant, like running into npc pilots, radio chatter, etc
dusk totem
It makes encounters easier
idle forge
having conversations with aliens for instance
yeah sure
but also: having such a big feature be more relevant
dusk totem
but its useless otherwise
Yeha
Also
Whats great is having the trophy for maxing out my linguist skill, and still not understanding basic sentences
Why is there so many useless words that never get used in game
its stupid
wide lagoon
im still curious about that idea nada said. if u complete the atlas path and then reach the final descision of the artemis questline could u convince the atlas of another way. i think i might try this but im not sure if anyone eles already has
idle forge
issue I have with NMS: do you even get to keep your fucking freighter on the New Game + system they have with reaching galactic center?
did they ever think of what happens if players just go the opposite direction to leave the galaxy
nms plot seems to be this
"just grind and then move on so you can grind and then move onto the galactic center where you can experience futility as you start over so you can get back to galactic center to go back and forth until you get bored, and maybe find an extinct alien to force to endure the same sisyphisian cycle"
wide lagoon
actually our protagonist talks to his suit as if its sentient (actually i think it breifly talks to him too which makes him/her think its sentient) near the end of the artemis story so u may be on to something @chilly elm
idle forge
god I'm sorry about all the negativity guys
I'm just burnt out after a day of positivity about the game
chilly elm
@wide lagoon It kind of seems like it. The suit was made by the Atlas after all.
dusk totem
Unless portal glyphs are created based on that planets position, then we will not know what the end of the universe looks like
Now
If we can decode the portal glyphs, we might be able to go to reach a edge by figuring out the cords for a portal on the very end or at least close
@idle forge wait does NMS new game plus have a different "map"?
idle forge
I wish I knew so I could tell you
wide lagoon
@dusk totem its a different galaxy so yeah. the whole galaxy is generated using a different seed so its a whole new map
trail sparrow
So you dont keep your freighter through the center anymore?
idle forge
I really wish I knew
glacial forge
yo umm, i'm on the purge quest
and it's telling me to board the anomaly
cant find it though
it says its in the atlas station
I don't get it
what am I supposed to do
kindred prawn
I reached the Purge part today and wow
i know i said i wasn't going to the center some time ago, but
im going to the center
kindred prawn
i was at 4/16 when i got off the game
when it started saying "ERROR // UNKNOWN INJECTION" or something similar
but it kept telling me to go to the center, after the Atlas 16 interaction
kindred prawn
aaaand that's why i'm being vague
peak scarab
Good point
glacial forge
but seriously I could use some help
I don't know what to do
it says to go to Nada but they said they'd send their anomaly ship in
but all I see is the atlas interface
and their quest market is on it, but I can't see them there or anything
glacial forge
I guess i'll just ask on the subreddit :/
this really blows, it was starting to get super good too
idle forge
honestly like does the game even know what to do if you start actively going the opposite direction from the center
digital lotus
So this World of Glass is mentioned all over the game, even your base overseer discusses it during the last messages he gives you. Wonder what that is or is going to be?
native frost
Okay
I'm beginning to think the world is a simulation
16 16 16 16 16 16?
-null- ?
Nada scanned me for "Rampancy"
Travellers look digital
The Atlas speaks in code sometimes
hrrmmmm
onyx light
@digital lotus i believe that it was explained that the sentinels are from the world of glass, and (the sentinels) are some kind of interdimensional parasite that uses their own portals to "infect" other universes
onyx light
better lore i guess
south yacht
I just went through all the trouble of finishing it
and it still wants me to go to the center
onyx light
yeah, i think they changed the center of the galaxy(s) a bit
south yacht
I kind of want to stay in the starting galaxy
but I also want to see if they changed it
onyx light
same, its easier to find people here
south yacht
the ending was pretty bland before
south yacht
I know the second galaxy would have a few players in it
onyx light
have you taken a portal to the galactic hub?
onyx light
It's surprising how relatively seemless multiplayer is too by the way, there are no lobbies or waiting time
south yacht
just haven't had time
onyx light
well lobbiess kinda
also theres voice chat
anyway i went on an adventure with another traveler entity in exocraft
his name was owen
it was fun
anyway im gonna go
nice talking to you guys]

I think I'm stuck
I did the quest 16/16
and the atlas is telling me it created me to explore stuff
but there's nothing to press
if I right click, I back out of the conversation and when I go back in I just get stuck again

same thing
These worlds were yours. I wanted to see what you would do with eternity yada yada
nothing to press

how
it was a portal thing
I don't have a ship
I can just reload the last save and keep doing it
my answeres to the atlus don't seem to change anything

16/16?
uncut harness
did you choose to interface or wipe
native frost
Interface
uncut harness
ah
native frost
and it has a breakdown
native frost
ah, weird.
native frost
No yeah, if you say Sixteen, Atlas gets scared and begins to have a lil breakdown
My favourite option that I chose that felt so condescending was
"Comfort Atlas"
atomic ibex
A bit bland, its my impressoin. The sure add flavour on waking titan, still not one of their strong points.
They worked with some interesting points that lead you to think on some interesting conceps, but... nothing new, the presentation felt organic and non-unique with too many back and forths
native frost
So after doing all the 16/16 stuff
and getting to "The Purge"
is it worth continuing the Atlas Path?
atomic ibex
For recipes, i think, i have to do the atlas path yet after 1.3
atomic ibex
. . .
native frost
Yeah I may have asked that question before going to orbit
and have now realised this is not the end of the questline
so back out of this chat for me now ๐
native frost
Nah it's coolio
Oh, well yes it is worth following the Atlas Path
"Before the final interface, follow its path, remind it of the joy of creation."
Wait
does the game give you the glyphs from the questline?
It just gave me the first glyph
@atomic ibex ?
atomic ibex
It doesnt give you from the questline, you happen to find one on your way
At least, i never found one until after the quest was done.
atomic ibex
Aaaah..Ok, then i know what you mean, its from quest yeah.
