hmm they should at least mark it complete or maybe it's just left open for more
any reason to keep atlas stones then?
you mean the seed?
you use 1 heart of the sun to finish the atlas quest
and get the star seed recipe
nah i still have all 9 stones
from launch?
the stones were made useless a year ago
and replaced with the chained seed recipes
yeah just coming back from then haha
Quick question about the end of the Atlas storyline... what does the star seed tech do?
its new with next
I believe it replaces the remembrance tech you used to get, but not sure
remembrance was used to unlock lore terminals hidden behind the atlas pass v2 and v3 doors
strangely enough, I still have my Remembrance
It didn't become obsolete
Which makes me happy because I'd quite like to keep it
So I think I'm on the last step of atlas rises "The Purge"
Nada and polo keep calling when I enter systems. Is this what I have to endure until I finish?
Known bug.
There's nothing you can do to advance the quest at this time.
If you are on PC, you can save scum past it, but you miss a bit of lore and risk making your save relatively unstable.
If you want instructions for save manipulation, let me know and I'll post em here.
if you go to a new galaxy I'm guessing you lose the ability to get back to your old bases, is that correct?
I made loss in nms and it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen
since i can't teleport to artemis now give her the mind arc, do i really just have to get there the long way?
@atomic hill Yeah if you could help me through it that would be great
- Open your save in NMSSE
- Open the JSON editor
- Search for ACT3_STEP2
- Look for a line almost immediately after that like "progress": 1
- Set that value to 20
- Close JSON editor, save file
- Reload in-game.
So what exactly is supposed to happen? Every time I jump N&P show up, Anomaly station appears. I go in and they give me the flavor text for The Purge and then Atlas Path or Shortcut. Shortcut doesn't work anymore but Atlas path still does. Is there some sort of break because I haven't done The Atlas Path?
It's just a bug. I don't know what is causing it.
Nada and Polo are supposed ti give you a little speech, you leave the anomaly, and you get a choice to go to the center or explore.
after giving the mind arc and talking to null, stuck with no dialogue boxes
best way to get uranium?
either look for metal fingers and mine that
or for automated gathering either farm gamma root and combine with salt, or mine phosphorus and combine with ferrite(can be converted from phosphorus)
uranium deposits doesnt seem to spawn atm so cant put an autominer on it
Does anyone here have all the glyphs collected?
@atomic hill How do you actually select which save to open? The slot one it's defaulting to is like pre-NEXT format and there's nothing in the JSON about acts
Wait, what? You select your folder, and then select the save slot.
are there any workarounds for broken scientist quest yet? after visiting the comm tower and connecting his core to the convergence, I returned to base and inserted his core back into his body. this started an hour and a half timer for "booting up". except when that timer finished, Science Research quest has disappeared completely and scientist no longer offers any dialog - the only option is to leave. no idea how to proceed at all, since it's impossible to continue Artemis storyline without a finished Science Research quest.
tried reloading and deleting and rebuilding science terminal, which was suggested for freighter scientist issues. no effect, unfortunately.
@atomic hill http://puu.sh/B5kYN/914b1d89a8.png That interface?
this is the up to date save editor:
https://nomansskymods.com/mods/no-mans-sky-save-editor/
https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor
So I miss out on the end of the game with this "fix"
and the free glyphs
lol
deep sigh
there are no free glyphs
anyone able to help with an issue i having the with storyline quest
the "glyphs" during the purge are not actually glyphs you unlock
im actually stuck on the purge quest right now. it wont update past: "progress towrads the galactic centre"
nothing i do will progress past that
every system it will have the emergency message to call in the anomoly, but then once i board it, they dont have any storyline options fo rme, then the quest goes back to progress towards the galactic centre
turns out a bunch of others are getting this bug
might have to wait for a patch
i also have that glitch
Nada will call me and ask me to board, the story shows a waypoint to there for a few seconds, then it disappears and just says "Progress towards galactic centre" again
for the end of the atlas pass do I need all the seeds?
From this point you have to just do what is says. Go to the center. @sharp bone
BUT I have to warn you. If you go into the center, is the point of no return
So right now doing atlas story I guess? I keep going to atlas station after station, etc. I'm wondering is that all I do? Does it change or increase the lore at all or pure random for a time? How many stations does one need to visit before something else changes in the story?
Speaking of No Mans Sky lore : have they added a means of explaining the anomaly (us the players) or am I right in assuming that Waking Titan best explained it by implying that the players are people using that WARE headset and playing No Mans Sky with it?
Or can that just be my own personal head canon
@urban glacier thats not the issue though, im already at the centre but the quest isnt updating. it is supposed to lead into the part with the counter where i need to warp to 16 systems. but the quest never progresses to that point
how do i uunlock the portal?
@sharp bone yeah quest is bugged for a surprisingly large amount of people. Quest has been broken for people since 2017. Kinda killed my enjoyment of the game today when I got it.
are your friends meant to receive rewards when you complete a group missions?
Yes
If your friends participated in the mission
@covert tendon also if you mean the stone portal you need to collect all the 16 glyphs
The purge quest is bugged?
Anyone knows if there are problems with specialists missions? My base building gek doesnt want to talk to me, i cant find/hire a gek for farming, cant find a vykeen for weapons...
am i missing something?
you nee to travel to the vykeen/gek controlled system, head to the space station and you should find your farmer and armourer
so gek = farmer and vykeen = armourer
@glass robin For a seemingly large amount of people it is
at least way too large for a progression bug to exist
Bugged for me too
the purge mission bugged with next, it was working fine before(it is also not really related to going to the center even though lore wise it is)
Really? I see records of people reporting the same thing all the way back as far as August 2017
maybe they fixed eventually and reintroduced it with NEXT?
maybe
have gone through the story 3 times during atlas rises, once on normal, once on survival and once in permadeath
curious what it is we're doing differently lol
So... The dialog suggested artemis's Grave would be in a cave but i found it on the surface of another world xD
Tfw Artemis is forever waiting for his mind arc he isn't going to get
That's not the part that's bugged
Or are you just having trouble getting the mind arc
whichever one you want
I hope people that run into a progression block on The Purge are reporting it via the Hello Games zendesk
I have a question about the story that seems all bugged. I just completed the part in the story where you birth a new star and then go to a black hole after then its just nothing. Is the story over? To see for myself if it was I went to the space anomaly and asked for the atlas path to go to another interface and its the same as before and it wants another "heart of the sun" which I dont want to make that again. Am I not finished or is something wrong?
The atlas path is over there yeah. Its just a small side thing that was there at launch, just updated with some new text
how long does it take to rush through the story? I want to respawn on the trainquil world
I've only done the first quest
These conflict level unavailable systems are nice
so im stuck with the purge being broken
and i cant get closer to the center that well because every time i ask nada for a black hole he just loops back to asking if i want atlas path or black hole, forcing me to choose atlas path
note that the purge has nothing to do with actually reaching the center
it just gives you marker to a portal that leads to a story station once you reach the 16 warps
but shouldnt it show some kind of progress other than just "Progress towards the center" or am I all wrong about this
every warp it should give you a message about a glyph being shown and a progress on the quest marker in the hud increasing by 1
and then occationally you will get contacted by some story npcs
thats how it worked pre-next, but seems it broke in next and just repeats the anomaly part of it
yeah. itll show nada and polo are trying to contact me but then nothing happens when I go to their ship, and warping doesnt change the hug message
hud*
hopefully itll get fixed soon
pre-NEXT you couldn't but I came here to ask exactly that
I'm wondering if getting to the center is any different in NEXT so I can safely tell people that getting to the center is pointless because it's the same reward as finishing the atlas path
I want to visit friends bases safety.
Hey anyone know how to get glyphs?
bugged atm
supposed to get from graves
you can't use portals to go back to previous galaxies btw
portals are coordinate within a galaxy
Ahhh so that why I keep getting same glyph
@versed jackal so if I jump galaxies I'm locked out if the Hub?
the euclid hub anyway
Pre-next taking the atlas path taught you how to craft the ability to leap galaxies. Is going back to Euclid possible?
atlas path never gave you the ability to leap galaxies, it marked black holes on the galaxy map
you travel to a new galaxy by reaching the center, which is a seperate thing
you can also do a shortcut by finishing the artemis questline
its possible to go back to euclid, but its too slow to be viable, you need to travel through all 255 galaxies
and loop around
Im doing the "Find Apollo's contact" thing and for some reason when I go to the system it tells me to go its like "Access the galaxy map to see where to go"
So I've activated this portal, but I don't seem to be able to do anything with it?
Walking into the middle does nothing but play a noise
Is it bugged? That would kind of suck, since this is my first time seeing the story.
Is there anything in the game that references the Dreamers/Anomalies past the race selection?
Seems like a missed opportunity if not. But I'm not gonna assume there isn't yet.
Would be cool to find a Telamon-esque log or something documenting the intrusion from an unidentified platform.
what is the fastest way to get emiril
should i walk away and return to the galaxy or birth a new star?
what do the options do
you should do the latter
no option really does anything
they're both the end of the official atlas path
not sure if it a story spoil or not but what happens when you reach as close as you can get to the center of the galaxy
not much yet
but theoretically on release a feature that was meant to be a part of it is that as you near the center things would scale larger and larger or get better and better
or weirder & weirder
hey guys can someone help me with the altas quest? i think i have a problem im in the last one (i think) where u put in the heart of the sun but nothing happens it just consumes it (i tryd it with pillars on and off https://imgur.com/LGzSnFH // https://imgur.com/86kGH3J ) is it just over then?
How do I kill the boss
Hi
what is next quest after I meet the anomaly?
I've lost main quest I think
only shows the atlas path and the anomaly
both telling me that I'm free to explore the universe
what's going on here?
I hope someone will visit me eventually
Also with multiple bases being a thing. It doesnt matter about finding the perfect planet anymore right?
Cause you can have your pretty main base and several other bases by important things such as resources, portals. And trade depots
Wait
Anyone figure out any way around the bug in The Purge where the mission quest doesn't ever change from "Make your way to the center of the Galaxy" and the anomoly station warps in every 2 systems but nala always has the exact same dialog and gets stuck in a dialog loop until you choose "follow the atlas path"?
This isnt the tight channel
sort of worked around it with save edit, but apparently the final portal doesnt work either so :/
I was trying to do the save edit, but I'm only on progress: 1 in the save anyways
and I don't have an entry for SE_ACT3_STEP2_NADA_MAIN either
@versed jackal is that the work around you did or is there another one?
I just increased the progress counter on act3_step2
but not sure it really worked around it properly considering the last portal doesnt work, did get the 16 warps and the various comn calls though
did Nada have a proper dialog?
or that annoying loop still
or does that bypass the anomaly step altogether
skipped the anomaly step
ah ok
so there might be a flag that sets
just out of curiosity, imported save or fresh save?
fresh
ah ok, so nothing to do with importing then
mine is an imported save from when NMS first came out, started playing again a few days ago with the NEXT patch
is the freighter base computer bug present with fresh saves too?
yes
I had it earlier on, fixed it, then made sure to never select that mission while im in a system with only my freighter that is not a base system
is there any new story in Next? i played the story in Atlas Rises and I was wondering if there are nore?
there is a new set of 10 logs, which is something, and some non-story dialogue has a few changes(base stuff), but other than that havent seen any
yeah I just make sure to never select it in the same system as the freighter period. I had an extra variation on that bug since all my specialists (except vehicle) are on my freighter, where a turn in that gets activated for a specialist is in the middle of space if the freighter moves
oh hey, the final portal worked now
as of right now, i dont think its possible to complete the story
after a few patches it should probably work but idk
was hoping to get access to portals but eh
can live without
Def annoying having Nada and Polo call me every system i jump into
and duimping their stupid orb in my face
you already got access to portals
portals are not linked to story completion
though the graves are currently bugged and doesnt give you new glyphs :/
is there a quest related to the glyphs that I'll miss out on if I edit the save?
nope
the useable glyphs are unrelated to any story mission
you get 1 glyph from the artemis grave during the story, but you could have gotten that elsewhere
yeah I got that one, and I've been to 2 graves but the glyphs didn't update
yeah, I believe its bugged like that for everyone
is Euclid the most popular galaxy btw? I'm on Galaxy 1 instead of 0 from my previous playing, but might save edit it back to galaxy 0
just need to make sure I won't break any missions first :p
yes, most people are in euclid
though a sizeable portion went to eissentam in atlas rises
(10th galaxy, the one you get if you pick tranquil at the end of the story)
how do I know in which galaxy I'm in?
assuming I can get to the end of the story any time soon 😛
you start in euclid
can check the full list here: https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Galaxy
I'm guessing nobody is in Hilbert
and I notice its still not updated with the looping thing
thx 😃
not on the wiki page atm, but once you travel from galaxy 255 (id 254 in the save file), you end up back in euclid
did they remove the go to the center to move to the next galaxy in favour of the The Purge? or can you still do that at will?
you can do both
the purge is a single time thing
you need to go through the center to switch galaxy after that
and can't pick then
or I guess just save edit and pick exactly which one you want 😛
Any others stuck in The Purge?
yep
that what I was posting about in the other chat
but no one knew what i was talking about
any who whats your issue with the quest?
nada calls me and teleport to me but theres like no guest marker to speak to him
The quest seems to be broken
You mean Nada calls you? And you enter the anomaly and nothing happens?`
I hope they will fix it soon
I went to Hilbert dimension and still not working 😄 (my first time manually reaching the galactic core)
I warp to another system, Nada calls and invites for a cup of tea, I enter the anomaly, but if I talk to Nada, he only gives me the options to find black holes or atlas stations...
I have completed the story 2-times in 1.3, but now it's broken for some reason
am i the only that realized this but
ive been seeing bugs in the game right
and look them up
and there been in the game for months
like the purge quest
its been here since atlas rises
Idk, I don't care about the bugs, except this one
The purge quest bug was fixed early in atlas rises, its just back again in next in a new form. It was working the majority of the time in between
The story quest
Still multiple
It's very obvious I meant the very first time...
If I didn't know there were multiple portals in the story
You get teleported to another planet.
Very far away?
Yes
Can you get back easily
Can use the teleporter at stations to go back
Ah k
so i reached the part where I have to just keep progressing to the galactic core
but after every warp Nada tells me to enter the anomaly thing
do I have to keep doing this?
I get the same text too
its bug
we cant complete the mission
your suppose to talk to him
and then warp 16 times
and get teleported
i hope the walker brain wasnt important
because i had a full inventory when i tried to pick it up
nvm they're easy to get anyways
So.. what exactly does the Star Seed do?
Just finsihed my Atlas story and the main one is telling me to go to the core
@bitter jetty
As far as I can tell, Star Seed allows you to see every black hole on the solar system select screen
As well as actually letting you access said black holes I think; haven't found a single one until I made the star seed
in the log it says to talk to the atlas again
is that just to get another star seed?
I thought this was the end of the atlas story line was the star seed
So for whatever reason
The quest line is bugged at the moment
It'll say to talk to the final atlas right?
Center of the universe+Final atlas for "The Purge"?
"Whatever reason" AKA they dont test their stuff ;p
Ya I am on that mission now
for that story line
From what I'm seeing on forums/bug threads
You're supposed to get a portal glyph every warp after that quest starts
wow
And then at 16 you go to a portal and then you get the option of 'choosing' your galaxy versus just going to hte next one
But uh
I mean we dont even get them now from graves and such
I hope I get all that retroactivley
I never got my landping pad blueprint either
I visited like 9 graves before I realized
from the overseer base quests
oh well maybe i will just try to find the gaalctiv hub
galactic hub
Yeah
I'm just waiting for the patch to that quest as well
Wondering if there's a workaround to edit your game files to just get to a lush galaxy
That'd be nice tbh
rip
so with the new lore
that people mentioned above
where do you find it?
the new logs
starseed gives you a bit more hp, but thats it
the visible black holes is a reward for finishing the atlas path, unrelated to making the star seed
the 10 new logs are from finishing the base archives quest
once the main unlocks are over, it gives you 1 log every 6 hours(of real time)
I posted a full pastebin in this channel several days ago
So what is the rememberence
I came across something that required it today
I assume it is l8ke the star seed?
oh cool, world of glass stuff!
Remembrance is a reward for finishing the artemis storyline
Anyone who's made it to Eissentam, how are the planets there? Still more lush/fewer angry Sentinels or has it changed?
still the same
i.e more lush, less dead in yellow systems, and chance of exotic biome in yellow systems(normally only spawns in non-yellow)
Good to hear. Still debating whether I'll move on from Euclid this time though... I put down a lot of bases
So.. i have to get to the center?
And speak to the final atlas to get it?
Cause i kinda killed artemis
killing artemis doesn't affect that
So i need to get to the center then
I sure wish my glyphs wernt buggy
Now I'll have to travel 700k ly
Can't you choose a galaxy at the end of Artemis?
so is there any way to fix the bug with "The Purge" quest?
im not getting the glyphs after warping and entering the anomaly and talking does nothing
im so confused about everything in this game
Like?
I
Which at the last Atlas interface, you have to use
Then you get the recipe for this technology called "Star Seed"
And that'll show blackhole locations on your galaxy map
You still keep the recipes for all the seeds, don't you?
has anyone finished the storyline since Next patch? I can't seem to find the end..just keeps saying find the center of the galaxy.
Yeah, you still keep the recipe for all seeds
But you don't need to create another one afterwards I think
Yikes, Atlas apparently sent me across the entire universe
What a nice way to make first contact I guess
So does the Anomaly race option in character customisation have any basis in lore or is it just for people who wanna look like astronauts
Anomaly and travellers are all kind of related in a sense if Im understanding things so far
In-game traveller and anomaly are kinda interchangeable yea but I’m just wonderin because it’s presented now as two different things
I guess you could say Anomaly is just a traveller with a helmet on?
In a sense I think
the anomaly is a traveler who dosnt know there a traveler
@elder pumice seems like that part is bugged. I assume you like warp 2 systems, Nada communicates with you going "UH MAH GUWWHD WE HEARD WHAT HAPPEN POLO IS MAKIN TEA"?
@hollow hull Ket posted earlier that he increased the progress counter by 1 to get past the anomaly step. dunno if it worked all the way for him tho
I need to do it too, unless HG beats me to it. think it affects everybody?
It affects almost everyone, yes.
I couldn't get increment-by-1 to work, so I just had to set progress to 20 and skip that part entirely
gotcha
You get to explore without guidance
@atomic hill so it continues the story if i accept?
I don't think so? (Not actually sure)
You can accept it and just choose not to follow it until you're ready
That's what I did. Accepted it and told it to fuck off while I started building a base lol
If you choose free explore you can still get back on the atlas path by asking nada or finding an atlas interface randomly. Its pretty much a question if you want the mission in your log now or later
so for the purge getting stuck drinking tea with polo. I tried inc by 1, tried setting it to 16 and tried 20. was still stuck in a loop on act3_step2 or it not showing up at all.
adding the act3_step3 as suggested here worked tho: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/93khv0/pc_workaround_for_the_purge_not_progressing/
3 votes and 4 comments so far on Reddit
16 is what it is set to once completed yeah
at 10 I got an option to go towards the final interface or explore
and then went to the next part
gotcha
alright then yeah 10 is much better since I guess you get some dialogue too
What happens if I tell Atlas I wish to die?
nothing bad
The lore is a lot deeper than it was originally.
I'm at the part where I get judged by Atlas. Oddly satisfying. Makes all those choices hold a bit more meaning.
It seems like the Atlas is kind of like a monitor instead of a "god" some assume. Doesn't seem like it has any direct control over anything except sending and receiving information.
@versed jackal how did you fix final portal?! it won't let me through
it just worked
mission was selected, I went to the portal, fueled it
then once the animation was finished, walked into ti
yeah that's what I'm doing and I hear the slurp noise and then nothin
Tranquil, Ancestral, Imperfect or Raging were the names for the galaxies you could restart in right?
It seems that they've been renamed to Burning, Frozen, Inspiring and Parallel
shiet. do I reset or not -_-
oky well im stuck on my story
put the final orb in atlas gave me seed bp nada akeeps spamming they wanna talk to me land they give me nothing every new atlas only gives seed bp same one i made it nothing now what
guys help
i got to the part of the artemis storyline where he introduces me to Apollo and says he will contact me, and then NOTHING, gone, its not in my missions, ive travelled everywhere scanning, i even spent ages finding a holo tower which gave me nothing
so I reached the part where it's just telling me to make for the galactic centre
have I reached the end now? I know getting to the centre resets my progress and starts afresh
Nada and Polo appeared just now but they've not updated my quest progress at all, they're just doing normal stuff
@clear citrus not renamed. They just fixed the thing that picks between the 4 variants of the names. It only picked the first one before as you couldnt redo it. Wiki has all 4 variants listed on the galaxy page
Each of the 4 types has 4 names. 16in total
Is Hello Games aware of the storyline bugs and are working on a patch right now?
Mainly being Glyph graves and Purge quest glitch
Which story line do I need to progress in to unlock glyph portals?
none, and its bugged atm
you just need the glyphs which comes from graves, but they are bugged to not give the glyphs atm
you only get the first one
so it's currently impossible to teleport via the glyph portals?
if I become partners with Apollo does that end Artemis' story line
I have read that you can do all of the story lines, so no.
cool
because making units with apollo sounds cool, but i was starting to like Artemis
is no mans sky going to work with the story bugs?
So, with teh story bugs so far
Portal traveling outside of the story quests is not working I think
And you can't 'choose' your galaxy type, the only galaxy movement is from Galaxy 1 to 2, to 2->3, 3->4, etc
Other than that
It works fine
Can anyone explain better than the sorely out of date wiki about the Story?
- What is the "Main" Story? Atlas Path or Galaxy Center? Or do they both lead to the same? Is Space Anomaly considered Main story or side story? How about Artemis/Apollo?
- Is the Center of the Galaxy the way to get to a new Galaxy? Can you get back to the first galaxy easy?
- Do most people want to move thru the galaxies or is staying in and setting up a base in Galaxy 1 the best?
- Is there any CON to completing all of the story / reaching the center if they're different?
all i know is the other galaixies are different
you can choose between some and each choice has something different
what are the diffrences between galaxies?
i actually never made it to the centre
so idk
are there any diffrences?
Atlas path is a slightly rewritten minimal story from launch. The artemis story is the main storyline added with atlas rises, the space anomaly is a small side thing.
center of the galaxy is a way to travel to the next galaxy in the order, and is just a side thing
its not possible to go back without going through all 255 galaxies and looping around or save editing
most people are staying, though going to eissentam was quite popular before as it is a lush galaxy type
there are 4 types of galaxies, Balanced(like euclid), Lush(higher chance of lush, lower chance of dead planets), abandoned(higher chance of dead, lower chance of lush) and vicious(higher chance of extreme sentinels/weather everywhere, more active pirates)
completing the main storyline gives you the option of either travelling to a new galaxy of a specific type( a shortcut compared to going through the center) or staying in your current galaxy
there is no extra story by changing galaxy
though there is a small amount of extra lore unlocked by finishing the story, which you can read by opening the atlas pass v2 and v3 doors and finding a terminal that requires remembrance
@versed jackal Thank you! That helped! :)
If I could ask as well (It always sounded like when you reach the center/complete the story that the game ended with a new system or galaxies creation? But does it end or are you on Free Play mode from that point?)
Also for the most part Euclid is where most of the Player Hubs are right? So staying is a good idea to meet others at hubs?
correct
though there are some in other galaxies too
eissentam was quite popular during atlas rises
harder now though as the storyline is bugged atm
uhh. the glyph portal in the final mission isnt working for me
What is bugged in the Storyline atm @versed jackal that you know of?
I will probably continue to avoid it till I see fixes in the patch... But what to look out for?
How far in is Purge?
it completly resets your progress?
its the last mission in the story
Purge is last mission i think
the first part of it doesnt advance properly
but gets stuck on summoning the anomaly
Youre supposed to collect glyphs, the fact it says reaching the center is the glitch
ooooh
its correct, it just doesnt advance to the next step
its supposed to ask you to warp in the direction of the center, which is just lore wise, it actually doesnt care
KazWolfe knows a workaround for it but it A. is risky and B. is kinda eh
and then on the next warp summon the anomaly
does it completly reset your progress?
So I am on the Apollo portion. So I can go a bit more before the purge.
KazWolfe knows a workaround for it but it A. is risky and B. is kinda eh
after you talk to the characters at the anomaly you warp 16 times, showing a glyph each time
after you talk to the characters at the anomaly you warp 16 times, showing a glyph each time
and then you take a portal at the end, this one also sometimes bugs out
how to fix portal bug?
unknown, it just worked randomly after working around the anomaly part of the purge
itll be fixed soon™
once you spawn in a new galaxy you lose access to all your previous discoveries, though they are still listed
but you keep everything that is not locked to a physical place
so ships and freighters and your inventory and stats go with you
btw once you start a new galaxy can you do the atlas path agian?
any missions you have not completed yet just changes to a new nearby location
you keep everything
oh nice
its just your bases that are inaccessible
aww
your base was auto dismantled before next, not sure what it does now
but you could pick up 50% of the resources spent at your new base
oh and storage containers keep the stuff in them so the stuff is still there when you rebuild them
dope
btw only real diffrences between galaxies is that they spawn more of certain planets and the colour
Any idea if 1.53 fixes The Purge and Nada's dialog?
and the glyphs
it does fix them? or you're asking as well?
iam asking as well
the frigate repairs is at least listed, that was annoying
yea
hopefully it's actually fixed
i'll give the purge another try
the purge seems like it should be a higher priority fix than some of the others they fixed
I think the Atlas Path is bugged too... I get to another Atlas interface and no new blueprint and interacting with the interface brings up the name of it but no dialog or anything
ok the purge is still bugged BUT they fixed Nada's infinite looped dialog for everything except the atlas path
atlas path worked perfectly for me
i got all the atlas seeds
created the star system
and got the star seed
and now i can see all the black holes
hmm ok... I can keep trying.. maybe that one was bugged.. .I can find another maybe? No clue. lol
they are all over the place
the quest just marks a close one
you can ask nada at the anomaly to mark a new one if the one the quest marked is too far away
or if its missing
yea
Also this Atlas Interface is instead of a Red Orb thing, its a black sorta solar eclipse? Maybe its bugged? Supposed to be a red pulsing Orb? 😐
so is there no way to fix the portal bug in The Purge?
seems a bit rng
sometimes it works sometimes not
1 guy I talked with it didnt work at first
but then suddenly it did
not sure what he did in between
well I made the mistake of leaving
and now I can't find the portal anymore
no marker
and my signal booster is also not working?..
alright, i'm missing the atermis quest
pretty sure i've already done it pre-next, but what does it give you upon completion?
remembrance tech, which unlocks a lore terminal, thats it
so if you are not interested in story, the main story gives you nothing
well, you get a shortcut to another galaxy I guess
the quest dissapeared from my log
single use
and i need rememberance, it's useful for manufacturing facillities
Thanos dies in the end
yea
i got star seed to only see vlack holes
pretty sure once u said create star etc ur suppose to go to a new galaxy right?
I reached the ending part of "The Purge." My quest says "Trace the leylines to the portal." I do that and activate it and the portal activates. I walk through and nothing happens. The audio changes as if I'm being transported but I remain on the same planet.
Got a question. Trying to get more portal glyphs, doing the thing of finding travelers at space stations and asking where they came from, and I've been stuck at 1 glyph for the last 8 travelers I've successfully found. There a lock on that based on story or am I bugged by chance? Figured to ask here, since it MIGHT be story relevant?
ok so i found these animals that are basically like flies with how tiny they are, now how the hell am i supposed to scan them? i cant even see them unless i go into photo mode and they move around so much that my analysis visor cant even lock onto them
It takes a certain knack, I managed to scan some of them, but otherwise they're still a pain.
anyone on The Purge part of the traveler mission line and have nada/polo bugging you every 2 seconds for no reason? Reset The Simulation specifically
they keep hitting me up on coms, warping in, then the quest goes back to head to the center
will it stop if/when I get to the center?
Nope
whats the bypass?
Save edit
Search for ACT3_STEP2 in this discord - I posted instructions a few times
will do, ty
Is it the same deal with the portal glyphs, by chance? Known bug? I haven't found anything related to it in searching yet.
From graves? Yeah. Also a known bug.
You can get them from the end of the main questline though
AH, okay. So I'll eventually get them either way, then.
(annoyingly, after the nada bug)
Can someone tell me what the Star seed is for?
As far as I can tell it takes up an inventory slot.
You might (???) need it to get Remembrance, not sure.
Ah okay
Mostly takes up an inventory slot
Yeah, I imagine it's all just for the Remembrance item. Eventually.
Well the Star Seed is a technology
In that case, I'd imagine the Star Seed is very much a clue in the name itself in what it does, no? I'm not there yet, but I've seen it mentioned.
You get it after you birth the star
Help. Artemis.... Simulation or end their suffering?
thats all you
Story wise, little to no effect.
^
I KNOW BUT I'M GETTING FEELS
and the music I'm listening to isn't helping
Personally, I terminated them.
They died long ago, and the simulation is... restrictive.
In my mind it was better for them to finally be at rest than spend the rest of their simulated life searching for fellow Travellers who don't exist.
That makes sense.
It's a very personal choice, though.
That was hard, but seemed like that was the right choice.
My fiance said "It sounds like a pro life vs pro choice debate"... Lots of help.
if it's any consolation, it gets worse later on
HOW
you'll see
Please tell me. I'm a sensitive cinnamon roll
trust me, one death or one entity languishing in a simulation wont seem so bad in a couple missions
I can't, mah morals 😄
PLEASE
I would sooner tell a someone that Darth Vader is Lukes father before they see star wars for the first time
I mean if you played waking titan...
Talking to Apollo now. Why am I crying in the club rn
I hate games with an emotional decision, man.
I saw this coming, too.
what did you decide to do?
If I finish the Atlas path will I still be able to find and use stations to learn words?
@quick cairn Ah I ended her existence and told Apollo the truth.
@floral grove I heard it doesn't matter. But I haven't gotten that far D:
i picked yes
and it teleported me to another planet
think ive done this before
pre next
At the end of the Artemis path, should I upload him or let him die?
It has no effect on the story, really.
It's up to you - and is supposed to be a personal ethical choice
@trail thunder oh man. Scroll up. I had this issue, too.
I cried. But I cry at anything that's slightly emotional, well-written or otherwise.
Aye, personally I would live forever due to my uncertainty of realms past my own. That said I would rather not be the only one alone on this.
It is a tough choice. Doesn't help that I had a recent passing as well. Damn.
Right, I read that much
Basically Artemis would be stuck in a simulation, alone, unable to to find her friends. Eventually, whether you tell her the truth or not, I'm sure she would realize what's going on.
At that point, it's like... Ever read any of the stories of the dude who got in a motorcycle accident and lived an entire life before waking up from a brief coma?
Its too bad that we couldn't make her a Korvax with the technology.
Then again that might present it's own issues
I can imagine the Convergence going, "The fuck is this abomination"
And try to erase her like it tries to erase Nada, but the space anomaly protects him
It actually does have a slight change to the story, btw
But only in the form of some additional dialogue from Artemis
Aye. I guess in this case I should let her go.
finding out artemis was dead the whole time was the real sad lad hours
Honestly speaking I'm kinda surprised Nada approved of my choice to let her go. Considering the simulated universe was a Korvax creation I figured not using it would have offended him.
well nada did say that if artemis found out that the simulation is a simulation that it would break her
Currently at this choice and I'm so split on what to do.
personally I found it better to just release her soul and leave her at peace
but man it sucked tho
I'm slowly leaning toward letting her die.
But like. Her dream of actually meeting someone proper would never ever be properly fulfilled... Though neither would it even if she's in the simulation.
And as I think about it, that simulation is only a singular solar system.
The problem arises though when you think about NMS further than just the baseline story and start reading into the ARG.
I still need to read up on it
Spoiler (cc @wanton lark) - you would basically have to lie to Artemis if you put her in the sim
If I understand anything of what I've read
NMS is a simulation of a universe entirely
So letting Artemis die is more akin to deleting her entirely.
but man I think I teared up a bit after releasing artemis entirely the first time I played through
and yeah I know that part
Which for some reason that is making it feel like the better option is to let her at least keep living in the sub simulation.
Ugh there's no good answer
i mean, it's meant to be a personal choice
I get that but my reasoning behind everything is getting complex to the point of being split 50/50
one of those choices where neither answer is necessarily wrong
the lore also gets really dark
Both answers have things wrong with them is the problem. If you let Artemis die you don't know if she would have been more happy in the simulation.
if you put her in the simulation, you're now stuck with another choice.
Tell her the truth? Or let her live a lie in the simulation, doomed to never find anyone.
But would she be happier living in the simulation because it being a single solar system means she'd be able to explore all of this "universe" available to her.
This is how complicated it gets.
of course, there's technically a third option.
But as I consider it I realize how it's actually the worst of the options.
You could leave that choice and keep her trapped within the mind-arc, sure you could reason that now you have her there physically and that'd mean she's "met" a traveller in a way. But if her last conversation before zapping her into the mind arc is anything, she'd be stuck in an endless loop of fear and loneliness on repeat.
I'll just say this, they nicely handle your decision should you place them in the sim, but they also handle it rather well if you choose not to.
As in, there's pretty interesting dialogue following the choice either way, difference being that some of that dialogue comes from Artemis depending on your choice
@atomic hill im at the place, but if i cry out will i go out of euclid
jesus christ the Base Computer Archives mission is drawn out
@uncut harness Her mind is real but she's stuck in a simulation.
I wish the missions werent bugged
is atlas quest literally just travelling from atlas to atlas?
oh
so worth finishing
i just want to continue artemis quest but it says "answers may be found in the stars"
Means warp to a new system or occationally just go into space and answer a comn call
nothing other than finishing the quest
Yeah, the end result is the real reward. The new tech you learn [star seed, which I have no clue what it does yet] and having every black hole charted for you henceforth is a boon.
checking the code it apparently increases your health by the same amount as the shield/health modules
remembrance does as well, but also unlocks those special lore terminals behind atlas v2 and v3 doors
Ahhhh okay.
I haven't run into Remembrance yet. I'm doing one questline at a time and doing the Artemis questline last [since I might be technically bugged since I can't learn anymore portal glyphs right now]
I don't want to kill Sentinels! stomps foot
have they fixed The Purge in experimental yet?
Some planets the sentinels are automatically hostile. You have to read the sentinel activity rating when you land on new planets. Unless you mean they're attacking on every planet automatically.
Guys what happens if I choose birth a new star?
Is it the right choice?
Or do I walk away and return to galaxy?
nothing bad happens, just pick birth a new star to finish the quest
walking away just means leaving it for later
Hey @versed jackal saw your Patebin with traveler’s log, is there more additional lore than that log?
they changed some dialogue during the base missions slightly
and just some random tinbits of no consequence from fleet expedition reports
and the new photo missions at the board
but not real lore logs
the rest is all old stuff
Oh bummer
@versed jackal nada and polo keep spamming me with calls the quest says reach center but i thought when u birht a new star you get to choose to go somewhere also
Question, not looking for the answer why they are there, but does the story answer this question?
Why the watchers are there that is
Watchers? You mean nada and polo?
It kind of explains how they came to be but not why
Or at least I'm not there yet if it does
Hey, so I did the Artemis quest line to the end, without following the Space Anomaly chain because of that God forsaken 5 Sols on an Extreme Planet milestone, and now every time I jump into a new system, Nada wants to have me over for tea, having no more option for "supplies to aid in the journey" and the "Find a shortcut to the center" option only sends him in a loop back to the start of the conversation. So no Black holes are actually being found, and I'm still 700 000 ly away from the center, what do?
the purge quest is currectly bugged
its supposed to spawn the anomaly, switch them to a story related dialogue, then send you on your way
instead it summons the anomaly, but then resets to the start of the quest
and this happens every time you warp
you can skip the bugged part using save edit, but otherwise you are stuck waiting for the patch
actually reaching the center does nothing
since its not actually a part of the quest other than flavor text
If you're willing to afk and do something else for a couple of hours, find an indoors building on an extreme planet, or a trade station, and AFK there and gain Extreme Survival milestone for a while.
Get your 5 SOLs out of the way.
@versed jackal so when you finish all 3 main quest you dont get to choose a new galaxy? Also why do snetinals hunt me down now no matter what even on planets their barely around
sentinels get aggresive on sight if the planet is a high security planet, and gets aggresive if they catch you mining on any planet
when you finish the artemis storyline you get to choose a new galaxy, other quests are not required
but as the purge quest is bugged atm you cant finish it without save edit
the other way of switching galaxies is unrelated to any quests, it just requires warping to the center and sends you to the next numbered galaxy in order
is broke
they are the pre NEXT stations
but broen hehe
inside its allr ed lighting
and the secret atlas rooms work fine
also
the buildings on planets are all there
but abandoned
so theres 3 types of systems i've found
Enexplored - no space station. no ships, no buildings
abandoned - pre next everything but abandoned
and regular sytems
what's inside the secret atlas room ?
regualr stuff
oh
buildings in abandoned systems
DO NOT PROTECT YOU AGAINST ANYTHING
-120 C
+500c
inside
anyone knows if the new update fixes the base building quests glitches?
invite me if you want to visit this base while im semi afk atm
justbe warned you will die if you idle inside the trade area
pc or ps4?
pc
one person exploring it w me now
im gonna log soon but if they identify themselves
they can guide you there
@versed jackal Thnx btw Ket, i kinda fell asleep after asking that. Also.. rip :/
no @hasty flame its bugged
I know that at launch in 2016 reaching the center of the Euclid galaxy would just dump you into a new galaxy. I'm near the end of the Artemis/Apollo/-null- questline and it's telling me to go to the center, but I don't want to leave Euclid. Does this questline change that or will I still be cut off from Euclid when I hit the center?
not even gonna touch the artemis questline
Yeah, I'm bugged before I even hit the other bug involving that one. So I'm just doing other quests and exploring.
@orchid nest crap! Polo and nada keep asking me to come aboard and just ignore me, lol
@orchid nest bugged at 16 right?
Nada/Polo in The Purge are bugged. If you're on PC, there's a fix somewhere in this discord. Search ACT3_STEP2
So, is the Artemis quest when you're ask to go through a portal bugged? Activated the portal using the terminal that comes out of the ground, the portal opened--- but I can't walk through and now the mission is gone from my log. Reloading the save doesn't help. Any ideas?
Same happened to me. Help this guy ^
@hasty flame bascially they keep spamming me every systme to board asap your universe is in danger and have some tea blah blah then i board nothing. Got a star seed bp installed it does nothing. Atlas just says explore now even though i wanna do that in the other galxy
So considering atlas passes need to be learned from atlas would that mean it’s not actual mass produced technology that all the races use
And more of a universe breaking skeleton key that your character uses to crack into doors n shit?
Atlas passes you learn from either buildings with reinforced doors, iirc, or from the Anomaly questline. To my knowledge, nothing to do with the actual Atlas yet.
So when I do the 16 jumps or whatever and reset the universe do I get to keep my freighter and ships and upgrades?
And will I be able to get back to my base I made before With my buddies?
Just finished the awakening story line and I must say I rather enjoyed it, minus the bug I had to solve for two days that wouldn’t let me progress on the last stage of the storyline
@orchid nest yup, same issue
hi guys, just want to confirm if i'm bugged or not. My "The Purge" quest tells me to go to galactic center. But i saw some videos that The purge actually glyph acquiring quest. How so? are the videos old?
quest is bugged
please don't tell me that i've travelled 500k ly for nothing
Hi guys is the story mission a must to finish?
Lulz i keep on warping to atlas with no clue
And it keeps having the same thing
Do i need to tmgive the seed
The atlas path is finished when you give it the heart of the sun and it marks all black holes on the map and gives the star seed tech, sometimes it bugs and repeats that last step but there is nothing more to gain
still no fix to The Purge on stable branch 😦 anyone know if they fixed it in experimental yet?
There are no patch notes for Experimental 😛
there is
where?
ah ok
Can someone tell me the point of no return on the artemis quest line? I feel like I'm getting close and want to make sure I'm prepared before being pushed in to it.
Unreachable without save edit atm as a quest is bugged
Does reaching the center end my file since I'm effectively forging a new universe?
No
It transports you to a new galaxy
You lose access to your old base but keep everything else
Gasp
Ket what is the title of the quest that will trigger the point of no return? Thanks for letting me know it can't be finished atm
Its very obvious as the dialogue indicates as such and gives you the option of leaving like 6 times in a row
Last step of the purge quest. First step is bugged and doesnt complete
So I can have the purge active and say pursue atlas quest as well?
Cool appreciate it.
What are the consequences of giving apollo the glyphs?
he goes through the portal
you get a second choice later on that will decide his fate while he is doing that
I'm writing a paper on the NMS storyline in relation to the hero's adventure. I'm only to the point of triangulating signals for artemis and was wondering if anyone could help give me information of the NEXT sotryline. Thanks!
Isn't it a 30 hour storyline
yeah, but there is quite a lot of other lore hidden in various locations
I need help, an opinion
I am on the artemis storyline
I am at the point with the space anamoly, what should I do? What my be a better outcome for him?
Is this the only outcome for him? Was there other outcomes I could of faced depending on my actions?
Great I get nothing since I closed out my game before picking my option and it just cancled and skipped it to the next session
I made a super detailed post on the subreddit about how I think everyone wanting to be able to get rid of sentinels could get what they want in a solid yet difficult way. Posting here because it involves a very story driven quest line. Let me know what y’all think https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/94dua4/a_very_thorough_proposal_to_the_i_want_to_have_my/?st=JKEQXVME&sh=edb34282
Hopefully it’s ok to send that ^ not really sure
SO
I am going to get to the core tonight
what happens
it doesnt end my game does it?
Had a coworker spoil it for me when I was about 60000 lys out. You do not want to know what happens trust em
Me
https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Galactic_Hub_Project @bitter jetty
ya i am on xbox
and dont have glyphs lol
ok so.. from whjat i read
it basicaklly breaks all your shit and throws you back out into the galaxy
that does not sound appealing at all
y'all got me worried so i googled it
or was that old
Oh wow. I really hate the Gek right now...and I liked that race early on....but wow. The...This story is getting a little heated.
I have a feeling this story is going to be full of twists and turns with blame on all sides for what happened and happens
depending on where you are, it gets worse
Think the Vy'keen are the only ones that come across somewhat positively, compared to the others
I like the korvax personally
I liked them before they revealed they sunk to similar lows as the First Spawn
I wonder if we will ever get more lore on the pre-first spawn Gek
@silk pelican Basically what happened is that the Korvax had groups of themselves sacrificed to have their nanites mixed in the unborn Gek pools to forcibly change the future race into being more docile.
It reminds me of a current era Dr. Who episode which that happened to a guy. 🤔
wait what
So basically the korvax stopped the gek tyranny
That explains why the gek are peaceful as heck now
Yeah, a Gek reveals this history to you at some point, and it basically just is "Oh we did not change our ways out of seeing how wrong we were, we changed because of a genetic switch being turned off by those we once enslaved".
So in reality they are part Korvax due to their genetic meddling, but hot damn it was a great reveal "fuck you" to the Geks early on.
Hmm do you think maybe thats why the geks look the way they do?
Maybe they ended up having some genetic deformity making them look like these small goofy looking fuckbirds
Possibly, I know it's why they are known for being merchants/traders now.
Cause i cant see these things running rampant enslaving races that look like robots and rhino/whales.
It was explicitly stated that the drive for war/conquest got switched out to being a drive for economy/merchants.
Whats funny is if i remember correctly
Theres a mission given to u by a random gek
To go kill a target
So thats a thing
I got one of those before from a Korvax. They pop up from time to time.
Ah okay just s coincidence then
Wait do we know anything about the vykeens then?
They seem to be just there then
Since i never saw a mention of vykeens having anything to do with the conflicts between lorvax and geks
I just think they are just the Klingons of the NMS universe. Just with a lot of soldiers wanting to leave.
they were fighting the sentinels a lot of the time
had a big war with them when the first spawn started conquering everything
Thats a really cool concept though
I admit I am not too far into things. I am at the point of the game where I am being forced to travel to the center.
so you are at the bugged purge quest then?
because there is no forcing going to the center
its supposed to go to the next step after 1 warp
but gets stuck there
For me Im having to access a holo terminal
After figuring out artemis is in an area
Where it constantly switches
@versed jackal bugged? I mean, I have not progressed it yet because I have been trying to collect all the atlas seeds
the purge quest is bugged and doesnt progress properly
Oh man 😨
its supposed to summon the anomaly after 1 warp, give them a new dialogue and then send you to warp 16 times
but when it summons the anomaly it resets instead
so it just repeats that step
How many atlas seeds are there anyways?
10
I think I'm at the supernova one.
I figured to get that out of the way first before progressing to the center just in case I need the seeds
Either way I have a decent enough hyperdrive to get me far enough.
they are 2 seperate quests and not really connected in any way
Ah
but yeah, reaching the center wont help you get past the bugged quest
even though it says that in the log
Are there any fixes coming for it yet or not?
probably, just dont know when
they have been focusing on crash bugs and other critical issues
guys, any solutions for "trace the leylines to the portal" step being bugged? i dial the portal but i can't pass trough
Is it worth going to the core?
not much different there
travelling through the center means going to a new galaxy, which might or might not be something you want to do
otherwise being near the center is not much different from anywhere else
going to another galaxy, is that like starting over or?
not really
like im deciding what to do
you keep everything you have except your bases
