#

not if they havent added anything in next, that was the end in atlas rises and earlier

supple isle
#

hmm they should at least mark it complete or maybe it's just left open for more

#

any reason to keep atlas stones then?

versed jackal
#

you mean the seed?

#

you use 1 heart of the sun to finish the atlas quest

#

and get the star seed recipe

supple isle
#

nah i still have all 9 stones

versed jackal
#

from launch?

#

the stones were made useless a year ago

#

and replaced with the chained seed recipes

supple isle
#

yeah just coming back from then haha

exotic fjord
#

Quick question about the end of the Atlas storyline... what does the star seed tech do?

versed jackal
#

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

uncut harness
#

is there anything new to the story

#

anything about the dreamers?

gusty terrace
#

strangely enough, I still have my Remembrance

#

It didn't become obsolete

#

Which makes me happy because I'd quite like to keep it

thorny sorrel
#

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?

atomic hill
#

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.

brisk cargo
#

if you go to a new galaxy I'm guessing you lose the ability to get back to your old bases, is that correct?

uncut harness
#

I made loss in nms and it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen

placid igloo
#

since i can't teleport to artemis now give her the mind arc, do i really just have to get there the long way?

thorny sorrel
#

@atomic hill Yeah if you could help me through it that would be great

atomic hill
#
  1. Open your save in NMSSE
  2. Open the JSON editor
  3. Search for ACT3_STEP2
  4. Look for a line almost immediately after that like "progress": 1
  5. Set that value to 20
  6. Close JSON editor, save file
  7. Reload in-game.
thorny sorrel
#

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?

atomic hill
#

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.

placid igloo
#

after giving the mind arc and talking to null, stuck with no dialogue boxes

covert tendon
#

best way to get uranium?

versed jackal
#

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

pallid skiff
#

Does anyone here have all the glyphs collected?

quick cairn
#

well thats depressing

thorny sorrel
#

@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

atomic hill
#

Wait, what? You select your folder, and then select the save slot.

calm dagger
#

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.

thorny sorrel
atomic hill
#

That is, no. Goatfungus' editor.

#

Sorry, wasn't clear

versed jackal
thorny sorrel
#

So I miss out on the end of the game with this "fix"

#

and the free glyphs

#

lol

#

deep sigh

versed jackal
#

there are no free glyphs

sharp bone
#

anyone able to help with an issue i having the with storyline quest

versed jackal
#

the "glyphs" during the purge are not actually glyphs you unlock

sharp bone
#

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

quick cairn
#

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

marsh pawn
#

Atlas pass?

#

Those blueprints I need to build hey?

#

Hit the milestones aswell

past tiger
#

for the end of the atlas pass do I need all the seeds?

urban glacier
#

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

heady pulsar
#

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?

uncut harness
#

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

sharp bone
#

@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

covert tendon
#

how do i uunlock the portal?

thorny sorrel
#

@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.

worldly swan
#

are your friends meant to receive rewards when you complete a group missions?

patent ginkgo
#

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

glass robin
#

The purge quest is bugged?

deft topaz
#

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?

deft aspen
#

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

thorny sorrel
#

@glass robin For a seemingly large amount of people it is

#

at least way too large for a progression bug to exist

quick cairn
#

Bugged for me too

thorny sorrel
#

that's actually pretty insane to me

#

that it has existed since 2017

versed jackal
#

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)

thorny sorrel
#

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?

versed jackal
#

maybe

#

have gone through the story 3 times during atlas rises, once on normal, once on survival and once in permadeath

thorny sorrel
#

curious what it is we're doing differently lol

limpid bison
#

So... The dialog suggested artemis's Grave would be in a cave but i found it on the surface of another world xD

stable fjord
#

Tfw Artemis is forever waiting for his mind arc he isn't going to get

quick cairn
#

That's not the part that's bugged

#

Or are you just having trouble getting the mind arc

uncut harness
#

which should i pick

#

going for the atlas path or going to galactic center

balmy mural
#

whichever one you want

thorny sorrel
#

I hope people that run into a progression block on The Purge are reporting it via the Hello Games zendesk

sand nexus
#

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?

versed jackal
#

The atlas path is over there yeah. Its just a small side thing that was there at launch, just updated with some new text

merry bear
#

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

still cliff
#

feed the creature > (10 sodium)

#

"The creature takes the carbon"

#

🤔

versed jackal
quick cairn
#

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

pliant berry
#

spoiler

#

it's all a simulation

quick cairn
#

so is our universe

#

who knew

versed jackal
#

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

quick cairn
#

but shouldnt it show some kind of progress other than just "Progress towards the center" or am I all wrong about this

versed jackal
#

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

quick cairn
#

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

uncut harness
#

What is the cost/benefit of galaxy jumping?

#

Can I use gates to go back?

tawdry vapor
#

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

uncut harness
#

I want to visit friends bases safety.

grim vigil
#

Hey anyone know how to get glyphs?

versed jackal
#

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

grim vigil
#

Ahhh so that why I keep getting same glyph

uncut harness
#

@versed jackal so if I jump galaxies I'm locked out if the Hub?

versed jackal
#

the euclid hub anyway

tawdry vapor
#

Pre-next taking the atlas path taught you how to craft the ability to leap galaxies. Is going back to Euclid possible?

versed jackal
#

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

silent pasture
#

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"

fading edge
#

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.

uncut harness
#

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.

uncut harness
#

wtf is this star seed thing i got?

#

i installed it

covert tendon
#

what is the fastest way to get emiril

north panther
#

should i walk away and return to the galaxy or birth a new star?

#

what do the options do

atomic hill
#

you should do the latter

#

no option really does anything

#

they're both the end of the official atlas path

paper ether
#

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

twilit ocean
#

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

#

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?

peak snow
#

How do I kill the boss

wanton path
#

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?

versed jackal
#

right after the tutorial?

#

just keep warping

#

you will get a comn call

keen bramble
#

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

keen bramble
#

Wait

languid jungle
#

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"?

keen bramble
#

This isnt the tight channel

versed jackal
#

sort of worked around it with save edit, but apparently the final portal doesnt work either so :/

languid jungle
#

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?

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

did Nada have a proper dialog?

#

or that annoying loop still

#

or does that bypass the anomaly step altogether

versed jackal
#

skipped the anomaly step

languid jungle
#

ah ok

#

so there might be a flag that sets

#

just out of curiosity, imported save or fresh save?

versed jackal
#

fresh

languid jungle
#

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?

versed jackal
#

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

sharp salmon
#

is there any new story in Next? i played the story in Atlas Rises and I was wondering if there are nore?

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

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

versed jackal
#

oh hey, the final portal worked now

uncut harness
#

Is the story completable?

#

I seem to be stuck

balmy mural
#

as of right now, i dont think its possible to complete the story

uncut harness
#

Well shit

#

hopefully they fix it soon

balmy mural
#

after a few patches it should probably work but idk

uncut harness
#

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

versed jackal
#

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 :/

languid jungle
#

is there a quest related to the glyphs that I'll miss out on if I edit the save?

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

yeah I got that one, and I've been to 2 graves but the glyphs didn't update

versed jackal
#

yeah, I believe its bugged like that for everyone

languid jungle
#

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

versed jackal
#

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)

lavish saddle
#

how do I know in which galaxy I'm in?

languid jungle
#

assuming I can get to the end of the story any time soon 😛

versed jackal
#

you start in euclid

languid jungle
#

I'm guessing nobody is in Hilbert

versed jackal
#

and I notice its still not updated with the looping thing

lavish saddle
#

thx 😃

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

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?

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

or I guess just save edit and pick exactly which one you want 😛

floral heath
#

anyone active in here?

#

Of course not

neon warren
#

Any others stuck in The Purge?

floral heath
#

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

neon warren
#

The quest seems to be broken

floral heath
#

and there a dialogue loop when you talk to him

#

and ive warped 16 times by now

neon warren
#

You mean Nada calls you? And you enter the anomaly and nothing happens?`

floral heath
#

yeah

#

sorry

#

get them mixed up

remote monolith
#

Feed the creature or euthanise it :(

#

Does it die either way

floral heath
#

I hope they will fix it soon

neon warren
#

I went to Hilbert dimension and still not working 😄 (my first time manually reaching the galactic core)

floral heath
#

wait

#

so how is the quest broken for you?

neon warren
#

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...

floral heath
#

same thing

#

for me

neon warren
#

I have completed the story 2-times in 1.3, but now it's broken for some reason

floral heath
#

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

neon warren
#

Idk, I don't care about the bugs, except this one

versed jackal
#

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

remote monolith
#

Uh wait

#

What does stepping into the portal do

versed jackal
#

What time?

#

There are multiple times you can step into a portal

remote monolith
#

The story quest

versed jackal
#

Still multiple

remote monolith
#

It's very obvious I meant the very first time...

#

If I didn't know there were multiple portals in the story

versed jackal
#

You get teleported to another planet.

remote monolith
#

Very far away?

versed jackal
#

Yes

remote monolith
#

Can you get back easily

versed jackal
#

Can use the teleporter at stations to go back

remote monolith
#

Ah k

hollow hull
#

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

floral heath
#

its bug

#

we cant complete the mission

#

your suppose to talk to him

#

and then warp 16 times

#

and get teleported

still cliff
#

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

bitter jetty
#

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

modest kite
#

@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

bitter jetty
#

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

modest kite
#

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"?

bitter jetty
#

"Whatever reason" AKA they dont test their stuff ;p

#

Ya I am on that mission now

#

for that story line

modest kite
#

From what I'm seeing on forums/bug threads

#

You're supposed to get a portal glyph every warp after that quest starts

bitter jetty
#

wow

modest kite
#

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

bitter jetty
#

I mean we dont even get them now from graves and such

modest kite
#

It's bugged as hell

#

Yeah

bitter jetty
#

I hope I get all that retroactivley

modest kite
#

NMS needs to patch it and I'm hoping they do soon

#

Yeah that'd be nice

bitter jetty
#

I never got my landping pad blueprint either

modest kite
#

I visited like 9 graves before I realized

bitter jetty
#

from the overseer base quests

#

oh well maybe i will just try to find the gaalctiv hub

#

galactic hub

modest kite
#

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

bitter jetty
#

i am on xbox

#

so... no

modest kite
#

rip

neat hill
#

so with the new lore

#

that people mentioned above

#

where do you find it?

#

the new logs

versed jackal
#

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)

neat hill
#

oh cool

#

I haven't seen anyone really talk about it anywhere

versed jackal
#

I posted a full pastebin in this channel several days ago

bitter jetty
#

So what is the rememberence

#

I came across something that required it today

#

I assume it is l8ke the star seed?

neat hill
#

oh cool, world of glass stuff!

versed jackal
#

Remembrance is a reward for finishing the artemis storyline

celest knoll
#

Anyone who's made it to Eissentam, how are the planets there? Still more lush/fewer angry Sentinels or has it changed?

versed jackal
#

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)

celest knoll
#

Good to hear. Still debating whether I'll move on from Euclid this time though... I put down a lot of bases

bitter jetty
#

So.. i have to get to the center?

#

And speak to the final atlas to get it?

#

Cause i kinda killed artemis

atomic hill
#

killing artemis doesn't affect that

bitter jetty
#

So i need to get to the center then

#

I sure wish my glyphs wernt buggy

#

Now I'll have to travel 700k ly

wanton lark
#

Can't you choose a galaxy at the end of Artemis?

bitter jetty
#

I wish you could when you birthed the star

#

Have my own personal galaxy

hollow hull
#

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

zenith plume
#

so dudes

#

What are atlas seeds?

uncut harness
#

im so confused about everything in this game

bitter jetty
#

Like?

modest kite
#

@zenith plume

#

Atlas Seeds, you craft them up to this final item

zenith plume
#

I

modest kite
#

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

shell marlin
#

You still keep the recipes for all the seeds, don't you?

elder pumice
#

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.

modest kite
#

Yeah, you still keep the recipe for all seeds

#

But you don't need to create another one afterwards I think

hot flower
#

Yikes, Atlas apparently sent me across the entire universe

#

What a nice way to make first contact I guess

kindred dagger
#

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

quick cairn
#

Anomaly and travellers are all kind of related in a sense if Im understanding things so far

kindred dagger
#

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?

quick cairn
#

In a sense I think

jaunty marten
#

the anomaly is a traveler who dosnt know there a traveler

oblique venture
#

@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?

atomic hill
#

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

oblique venture
#

gotcha

warm lance
#

"the atlas asks me to follow its path"

#

accept or refuse ;-;

#

idk which to choose

oblique venture
#

when in doubt accept

#

😉

warm lance
#

IDK

#

seriosly tho what would happen if i refuse?

atomic hill
#

You get to explore without guidance

warm lance
#

@atomic hill so it continues the story if i accept?

atomic hill
#

I don't think so? (Not actually sure)

warm lance
#

fuck

#

im sitting here for like 10 minutes already like wtf do i choose

visual mirage
#

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

versed jackal
#

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

oblique venture
versed jackal
#

I set it to 10 to make it skip it for me

#

tried 2-5 without it working

oblique venture
#

what was the skip to at 10?

#

16 and adding step 3 is atlas seq

#

straight to it

versed jackal
#

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

oblique venture
#

gotcha

#

alright then yeah 10 is much better since I guess you get some dialogue too

versed jackal
#

not much

#

nothing that matters

still flume
#

What happens if I tell Atlas I wish to die?

versed jackal
#

nothing bad

still flume
#

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.

oblique venture
#

ya it was nice

#

also made me feel better about my choice haha

still flume
#

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.

oblique venture
#

@versed jackal how did you fix final portal?! it won't let me through

versed jackal
#

it just worked

#

mission was selected, I went to the portal, fueled it

#

then once the animation was finished, walked into ti

oblique venture
#

yeah that's what I'm doing and I hear the slurp noise and then nothin

clear citrus
#

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

oblique venture
#

shiet. do I reset or not -_-

orchid nest
#

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

thorny brook
#

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

dim token
#

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

versed jackal
#

@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

clear citrus
#

neat

versed jackal
#

Each of the 4 types has 4 names. 16in total

modest kite
#

Is Hello Games aware of the storyline bugs and are working on a patch right now?

#

Mainly being Glyph graves and Purge quest glitch

orchid nest
#

yea

#

which one is the pruge bug?

loud depot
#

Which story line do I need to progress in to unlock glyph portals?

versed jackal
#

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

loud depot
#

so it's currently impossible to teleport via the glyph portals?

uncut harness
#

if I become partners with Apollo does that end Artemis' story line

loud depot
#

I have read that you can do all of the story lines, so no.

uncut harness
#

cool

#

because making units with apollo sounds cool, but i was starting to like Artemis

orchid nest
#

is no mans sky going to work with the story bugs?

modest kite
#

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

quasi vapor
#

Is this Atlas thing gonna go anywhere or

#

Like what do I need all these recipes for

orchid nest
#

iv done the mission but

#

nothing else and it shoulda given me galaxy type to choose

silk ermine
#

btw when i created the star system

#

can i visit it somehow?

ionic umbra
#

Can anyone explain better than the sorely out of date wiki about the Story?

  1. 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?
  2. Is the Center of the Galaxy the way to get to a new Galaxy? Can you get back to the first galaxy easy?
  3. Do most people want to move thru the galaxies or is staying in and setting up a base in Galaxy 1 the best?
  4. Is there any CON to completing all of the story / reaching the center if they're different?
orchid nest
#

all i know is the other galaixies are different

#

you can choose between some and each choice has something different

silk ermine
#

what are the diffrences between galaxies?

#

i actually never made it to the centre

#

so idk

#

are there any diffrences?

versed jackal
#

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

ionic umbra
#

@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?)

versed jackal
#

no ending

#

so kinda like a free play thing

ionic umbra
#

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?

versed jackal
#

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

hollow hull
#

uhh. the glyph portal in the final mission isnt working for me

ionic umbra
#

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?

silk ermine
#

can you travel to bases that are in other galaxies?

#

using the terminus that is

versed jackal
#

currently the purge mission doesnt start properly

#

no you cant

silk ermine
#

oh

#

wait

ionic umbra
#

How far in is Purge?

silk ermine
#

it completly resets your progress?

versed jackal
#

its the last mission in the story

quick cairn
#

Purge is last mission i think

silk ermine
#

i have the purge in my log

#

it says to just reach the centre

versed jackal
#

the first part of it doesnt advance properly

#

but gets stuck on summoning the anomaly

silk ermine
#

what anomaly?

#

oh

#

the station?

quick cairn
#

Youre supposed to collect glyphs, the fact it says reaching the center is the glitch

silk ermine
#

ooooh

versed jackal
#

its correct, it just doesnt advance to the next step

silk ermine
#

btw

#

when you reset the simulation

versed jackal
#

its supposed to ask you to warp in the direction of the center, which is just lore wise, it actually doesnt care

quick cairn
#

KazWolfe knows a workaround for it but it A. is risky and B. is kinda eh

versed jackal
#

and then on the next warp summon the anomaly

silk ermine
#

does it completly reset your progress?

versed jackal
#

with some new dialogue

#

this part bugs out

ionic umbra
#

So I am on the Apollo portion. So I can go a bit more before the purge.

quick cairn
#

KazWolfe knows a workaround for it but it A. is risky and B. is kinda eh

versed jackal
#

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

hollow hull
#

how to fix portal bug?

silk ermine
#

yea i cant get any glyphs

#

when will they fix it?!

#

REEEEE

versed jackal
#

unknown, it just worked randomly after working around the anomaly part of the purge

quick cairn
#

itll be fixed soon™

versed jackal
#

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

silk ermine
#

btw once you start a new galaxy can you do the atlas path agian?

versed jackal
#

just not your bases

#

no

#

nothing reset story wise

silk ermine
#

oh

#

and your stuff?

versed jackal
#

any missions you have not completed yet just changes to a new nearby location

#

you keep everything

silk ermine
#

oh nice

versed jackal
#

its just your bases that are inaccessible

silk ermine
#

aww

versed jackal
#

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

silk ermine
#

dope

#

btw only real diffrences between galaxies is that they spawn more of certain planets and the colour

languid jungle
#

Any idea if 1.53 fixes The Purge and Nada's dialog?

silk ermine
#

and the glyphs

languid jungle
#

it does fix them? or you're asking as well?

silk ermine
#

iam asking as well

versed jackal
#

I dont believe it does

#

atleast not listed

languid jungle
#

the frigate repairs is at least listed, that was annoying

silk ermine
#

yea

languid jungle
#

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

ionic umbra
#

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

languid jungle
#

ok the purge is still bugged BUT they fixed Nada's infinite looped dialog for everything except the atlas path

silk ermine
#

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

ionic umbra
#

hmm ok... I can keep trying.. maybe that one was bugged.. .I can find another maybe? No clue. lol

versed jackal
#

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

silk ermine
#

yea

ionic umbra
#

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? 😐

languid jungle
#

IIRC there are a few variations of the4 Atlas

#

at least there were in 1.0

versed jackal
#

yeah there are several variants

#

5 of them to be exact

hollow hull
#

so is there no way to fix the portal bug in The Purge?

versed jackal
#

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

hollow hull
#

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?..

pliant berry
#

alright, i'm missing the atermis quest

#

pretty sure i've already done it pre-next, but what does it give you upon completion?

versed jackal
#

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

pliant berry
#

the quest dissapeared from my log

versed jackal
#

single use

pliant berry
#

and i need rememberance, it's useful for manufacturing facillities

pretty sure once u said create star etc ur suppose to go to a new galaxy right?

hollow hull
#

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.

mystic sand
#

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?

balmy mural
#

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

mystic sand
#

It takes a certain knack, I managed to scan some of them, but otherwise they're still a pain.

karmic kite
#

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

Known bug

#

If on PC, you can bypass the segment.

will it stop if/when I get to the center?

Nope

Search for ACT3_STEP2 in this discord - I posted instructions a few times

karmic kite
#

will do, ty

mystic sand
#

Is it the same deal with the portal glyphs, by chance? Known bug? I haven't found anything related to it in searching yet.

atomic hill
#

From graves? Yeah. Also a known bug.

#

You can get them from the end of the main questline though

mystic sand
#

AH, okay. So I'll eventually get them either way, then.

atomic hill
#

(annoyingly, after the nada bug)

indigo badge
#

Can someone tell me what the Star seed is for?

atomic hill
#

As far as I can tell it takes up an inventory slot.

#

You might (???) need it to get Remembrance, not sure.

indigo badge
#

Ah okay

atomic hill
#

Mostly takes up an inventory slot

mystic sand
#

Yeah, I imagine it's all just for the Remembrance item. Eventually.

atomic hill
#

Well the Star Seed is a technology

mystic sand
#

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.

atomic hill
#

You get it after you birth the star

#

Help. Artemis.... Simulation or end their suffering?

karmic kite

But my morals

I cant choose

atomic hill

Story wise, little to no effect.

karmic kite
#

^

wanton lark
#

I KNOW BUT I'M GETTING FEELS

and the music I'm listening to isn't helping

atomic hill
#

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.

wanton lark
#

That makes sense.

atomic hill
#

It's a very personal choice, though.

wanton lark
#

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.

karmic kite
#

if it's any consolation, it gets worse later on

HOW

karmic kite

you'll see

wanton lark
#

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 😄

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?

tawny jolt
#

If I finish the Atlas path will I still be able to find and use stations to learn words?

floral grove
#

so its asking me if i want to experience universal death

#

should i pick Y or N lol

wanton lark
#

@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:

floral grove
#

i picked yes

#

and it teleported me to another planet

#

think ive done this before

#

pre next

trail thunder
#

At the end of the Artemis path, should I upload him or let him die?

atomic hill
#

It has no effect on the story, really.

#

It's up to you - and is supposed to be a personal ethical choice

wanton lark
#

@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.

trail thunder
#

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.

wanton lark
#

Oh no.

#

Kaz gave good perspective earlier for me.

trail thunder
#

Right, I read that much

wanton lark
#

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?

trail thunder
#

Its too bad that we couldn't make her a Korvax with the technology.

#

Then again that might present it's own issues

wanton lark
#

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

crisp fern
#

It actually does have a slight change to the story, btw

#

But only in the form of some additional dialogue from Artemis

trail thunder
#

Aye. I guess in this case I should let her go.

polar locust
#

finding out artemis was dead the whole time was the real sad lad hours

trail thunder
#

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.

polar locust
#

well nada did say that if artemis found out that the simulation is a simulation that it would break her

deep nova
#

Currently at this choice and I'm so split on what to do.

polar locust
#

personally I found it better to just release her soul and leave her at peace

#

but man it sucked tho

deep nova
#

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.

polar locust
#

I still need to read up on it

atomic hill
#

Spoiler (cc @wanton lark) - you would basically have to lie to Artemis if you put her in the sim

deep nova
#

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.

polar locust
#

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

atomic hill
#

the lore gets really complex in some places

#

especially with Waking Titan

deep nova
#

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

atomic hill
#

i mean, it's meant to be a personal choice

deep nova
#

I get that but my reasoning behind everything is getting complex to the point of being split 50/50

polar locust
#

one of those choices where neither answer is necessarily wrong

atomic hill
#

the lore also gets really dark

deep nova
#

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.

crisp fern
#

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

Is she really back if you simulate her though?

Is that really the same Artemis?

#

I wish the missions werent bugged

rotund estuary
#

is atlas quest literally just travelling from atlas to atlas?

versed jackal
#

Yes. Its a remnant from launch.

#

Unlocks all black hole markers on completion.

rotund estuary
#

oh

#

so worth finishing

#

i just want to continue artemis quest but it says "answers may be found in the stars"

versed jackal
#

Means warp to a new system or occationally just go into space and answer a comn call

rotund estuary
#

in the atlas story line

#

if i create a new star does it affect anything?

versed jackal
#

nothing other than finishing the quest

mystic sand
#

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.

versed jackal
#

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

mystic sand
#

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]

wanton lark
#

I don't want to kill Sentinels! stomps foot

languid jungle
#

have they fixed The Purge in experimental yet?

orchid nest
#

the sentinels attack me no matter what

#

iv done nothing

mystic sand
#

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.

agile otter
#

Guys what happens if I choose birth a new star?

#

Is it the right choice?

#

Or do I walk away and return to galaxy?

versed jackal
#

nothing bad happens, just pick birth a new star to finish the quest

#

walking away just means leaving it for later

spice urchin
#

Hey @versed jackal saw your Patebin with traveler’s log, is there more additional lore than that log?

versed jackal
#

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

Or at least I'm not there yet if it does

No I mean the bots

and some of the lore sort of 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?

versed jackal
#

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

mystic sand
#

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

versed jackal
#

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

Hi

#

Has anyone completed the Artemis quest line?

tight hull
#

@versed jackal Thnx btw Ket, i kinda fell asleep after asking that. Also.. rip :/

orchid nest
#

no @hasty flame its bugged

dreamy coyote
#

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?

still coyote
#

BOIS

#

kill or save artemis ?

#

killed

bitter pendant
#

not even gonna touch the artemis questline

mystic sand
#

Yeah, I'm bugged before I even hit the other bug involving that one. So I'm just doing other quests and exploring.

hasty flame
#

@orchid nest crap! Polo and nada keep asking me to come aboard and just ignore me, lol

#

@orchid nest bugged at 16 right?

atomic hill
#

Nada/Polo in The Purge are bugged. If you're on PC, there's a fix somewhere in this discord. Search ACT3_STEP2

ashen ridge
#

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?

hollow hull
#

Same happened to me. Help this guy ^

orchid nest
#

@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

kindred dagger
#

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?

mystic sand
#

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.

naive heron
#

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?

tight kayak
#

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

hasty flame
#

@orchid nest yup, same issue

rustic wind
#

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?

sharp bone
#

quest is bugged

rustic wind
#

please don't tell me that i've travelled 500k ly for nothing

fossil pasture
#

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

versed jackal
#

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

languid jungle
#

still no fix to The Purge on stable branch 😦 anyone know if they fixed it in experimental yet?

versed jackal
#

not yet

#

just check the patch notes when they come

languid jungle
#

There are no patch notes for Experimental 😛

versed jackal
#

there is

languid jungle
#

where?

languid jungle
#

ah ok

versed jackal
#

they usually make a new topic on that forum

#

when there is a new one

languid jungle
#

didn't know

#

i've been checking the nms website for stable patch notes

prime grail
#

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.

versed jackal
#

Unreachable without save edit atm as a quest is bugged

hot flower
#

Does reaching the center end my file since I'm effectively forging a new universe?

versed jackal
#

No

#

It transports you to a new galaxy

#

You lose access to your old base but keep everything else

hot flower
#

Gasp

prime grail
#

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

versed jackal
#

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

prime grail
#

So I can have the purge active and say pursue atlas quest as well?

versed jackal
#

Yeah

#

There arent really any blocks like that

prime grail
#

Cool appreciate it.

cerulean stump
#

What are the consequences of giving apollo the glyphs?

versed jackal

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!

wanton lark
#

Isn't it a 30 hour storyline

versed jackal
#

yeah, but there is quite a lot of other lore hidden in various locations

craggy flare
#

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?

craggy flare
#

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

iron wraith
#

Hopefully it’s ok to send that ^ not really sure

#

SO

#

I am going to get to the core tonight

#

#

it doesnt end my game does it?

#

Nope

#

Do you really want to know?

Had a coworker spoil it for me when I was about 60000 lys out. You do not want to know what happens trust em

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

wet copper
#

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

atomic hill
#

depending on where you are, it gets worse

crisp fern
#

Think the Vy'keen are the only ones that come across somewhat positively, compared to the others

atomic hill
#

I like the korvax personally

crisp fern
#

I liked them before they revealed they sunk to similar lows as the First Spawn

versed jackal
#

I wonder if we will ever get more lore on the pre-first spawn Gek

trail thunder
#

@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. 🤔

silk pelican
#

wait what

#

So basically the korvax stopped the gek tyranny

#

That explains why the gek are peaceful as heck now

trail thunder
#

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".

silk pelican
#

Damn the Korvax coming through

#

Theb what the hell did the Vykeens do at all

trail thunder
#

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.

silk pelican
#

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

trail thunder
#

Possibly, I know it's why they are known for being merchants/traders now.

silk pelican
#

Cause i cant see these things running rampant enslaving races that look like robots and rhino/whales.

trail thunder
#

It was explicitly stated that the drive for war/conquest got switched out to being a drive for economy/merchants.

silk pelican
#

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

trail thunder
#

I got one of those before from a Korvax. They pop up from time to time.

silk pelican
#

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

trail thunder
#

I just think they are just the Klingons of the NMS universe. Just with a lot of soldiers wanting to leave.

versed jackal
#

they were fighting the sentinels a lot of the time

#

had a big war with them when the first spawn started conquering everything

silk pelican
#

Thats a really cool concept though

trail thunder
#

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.

silk pelican
#

How a race went from being bloodthirsty and all about war

#

To being merchants

versed jackal
#

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

silk pelican
#

For me Im having to access a holo terminal

#

After figuring out artemis is in an area

#

Where it constantly switches

trail thunder
#

@versed jackal bugged? I mean, I have not progressed it yet because I have been trying to collect all the atlas seeds

versed jackal
#

the purge quest is bugged and doesnt progress properly

trail thunder
#

Oh man 😨

versed jackal
#

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

trail thunder
#

How many atlas seeds are there anyways?

versed jackal
#

10

trail thunder
#

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.

versed jackal
#

they are 2 seperate quests and not really connected in any way

trail thunder
#

Ah

versed jackal
#

but yeah, reaching the center wont help you get past the bugged quest

#

even though it says that in the log

trail thunder
#

Are there any fixes coming for it yet or not?

versed jackal
#

probably, just dont know when

#

they have been focusing on crash bugs and other critical issues

rustic wind
#

guys, any solutions for "trace the leylines to the portal" step being bugged? i dial the portal but i can't pass trough

tepid blaze
#

Is it worth going to the core?

versed jackal
#

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

tepid blaze
#

going to another galaxy, is that like starting over or?

versed jackal
#

not really

tepid blaze
#

like im deciding what to do

versed jackal
#

you keep everything you have except your bases
