The game seems to enjoy giving me warnings before doing the Atlas purge sequence thing, I don't want to know what happens, I am just wondering. Can I continue afterwards or will it reset everything like the game said?

I'm gonna finish out all the overseer related quests, then do the planetary base related quests.
Also gonna try starting a new save and then hopping back to my main save, maybe it'll tick something...?
Anything else I should try in order to receive the lube bp?

ShouldI let Artemis Live or Die?

Well
I mean it doesn’t really matter in the end
I let him live for reasons you will get later on in the story
visual mirage
Interesting dialog either way, honestly.
crisp flint
He’s dead so
native dragon
So what did the gek do to the korvax?
crisp flint
Well
The Gek (created?) the Korvax if I’m not mistaken
And then enslaved them
Then the Korvax all had to kill themselves on their babies (Which I believe are nanite clusters) to spill enough blood to free themselves from the Gek’s enslavement.
atomic hill
Atlas created Korvax iirc, Gek just enslaved them trying to take over the entire galaxy.
But yes, the Korvax cut themselves over Gek hatching pools to dump nanite clusters and genetically alter the gek spawn.
crisp flint
Oh okay
OH THATS RIGHt
They did it over the Gek children
I heard that story back in December of last year so
native dragon
Vyken are just unaffiliated with this nonsense?
uncut harness
Too busy fighting Aerons (Sentinels)
coarse zenith
Why call them aerons
uncut harness
Idk
Just call them sentinels, sock eater
Game lore in the vy’keen text states them as so
Or one of them
I’m pretty sure it’s either vy’keen or gek
Maybe both
violet narwhal
Only mention of aeron I see is in the description of the sentinel decal.
coarse zenith
I've never seen that
uncut harness
It's the vykeen text
violet narwhal
An exclusive placeable decal, to add flair and decoration to bases. This decal depicts a shining Aeron drone.

Wait, is the newly created universe literally newly generated when you complete the game?
violet narwhal
No, just you're sent to a different galaxy that already exists.
violet narwhal
You... can't.
violet narwhal
I've seen conflicting reports about what happens to your base... But there isn't a "good" way to get back there.
nimble gorge
Well that is terrible game design
violet narwhal
Can't say I'm a fan either.
You could possibly join someone else's game, who's still in Euclid, and maybe go back there that way? I think you won't be able to stay that way, but may be good enough to get whatever you need from there.
You'd need to find someone close to where you were there, I guess.
If you're on PC (go to #roles to set your platform) you can save edit to go back.
nimble gorge
My friend is in that galaxy
violet narwhal
If they've been to your base, they should have it in their teleport list, and so if you join their game when they're in that system, you should end up there too... I guess?
versed jackal
When I tried it pre-next the base was auto-dismantled when you switched galaxy, so even if you went back you couldn't see it, not sure if next changed that.
nimble gorge
The base still exists according to the save editor
violet narwhal
I've seen people say both, so it may have changed, or there may be something else involved.
crisp flint
Change the galaxy value in the save editor from 2 to 1 if you really want to go back
Also since Next introduced multiplayer it no longer dismantles your bases
crisp flint
Yeah

So, I came across a Korvax that spoke in binary code, and one of the responses was in binary as well. The Korvax was saying Atlas and the response you can make in binary is 16.
violet narwhal
I think I made screenshots of that a long time ago now, with the intention of decoding it, but never got round to it.
cunning wedge
When I came across the conversation, I took out my phone and quickly found a binary-to-ASCII Website. Wish I could tell what the Korvax was saying, but I haven't learned all the words in their language yet.

How do you find holo terminus?? I'm trying to complete the event ... 😐
violet narwhal
Scan for habitable outposts, someone said.

Thanks but that didn't work at all
Anyone have more ideas? Just hovering the planet and scanning ATM ☹
nvm, searched here and got that reddit post with coordinates for it 😉

Exotics have a very large central ball with stuff around it, or looks like a squid.
coarse zenith
Squids are cool asf
native dragon
It sort of reminds me of the enterprises
coarse zenith
How so
native dragon
The head bit, with a neck that goes down to a cigar shaped body.
The squds' necks connect sort of far back compared to enterprise, but it's got a somewhat similar look
coarse zenith
Hmm I personally don't really see it
uncut harness
Hey, I have collected the 16 glyphs and now the final interface portal has spawned. Should I go there? Does it reset the galaxy?
late jay
Once there you get the choice to reset the galaxy (to a specific type from 4 choices), or not to reset it.
Regardless of your choice, you get the Remembrace blueprint (serves for being able to read some Lore logs so far)
If you reset it, you get to that new galaxy. If you don't, nothing happens, you stay in current one, and you can go and find the last atlas interface again whenever you want to (Nada helps with that primary mission)
That's how I think it works. I made a save and reset galaxy just to check it out. Then I reloaded the save, chose not to reset it and got the Remembrace anyway and stayed in Euclid.
uncut harness
Oh thanks. And are those seed blueprints that Atlas gives me related to it?
late jay
Yes, you need to craft all of them in order to craft the Remembrace, it's like a craft chain 😉

Unlocked living glass and mind arc bp, but never got lubricant bp
Did all the scientist missions, now he's done with me.
Been grinding the farmer but I think he's just unlocking plants.
I suspect the issue stems from me building my base in my freighter and not on a planet.

Yeah it should've been given to you when you constructed the science terminal
native dragon
In the guide it shows up as me knowing it, but not as me having the bp

You are the last traveller, Travellers were created by the Atlas. All other travellers you encounter are already dead.
Anomalies are people that are "dreaming" whilst hooked into the simulation via headsets.
The 16 is the glitch of the simulation, the Atlas is being reset and there is 16 minutes until shutdown on an alien timescale.

nice to finally get some more abyss stuff after so long being hinted at in the lore
rough copper
Yeah this should be good
spice gorge
I wonder if this means subs and more sinister water fauna ?
They can't really deepen the oceans without a world regen.
violet narwhal
I think so, judging by the strings we've seen.
spice gorge
Surely no world regen here
coarse zenith
Most likely
rough copper
It's going to be similar to this weeks, but underwater. I didn't put that on the datamining page, because its just soo much text.
rough copper
actually, week 7 is this friday I think, that is the underwater themed one... there is a chance they really meant later this week.. either way, the final weekly event is next friday, i think that will "unlock" the new weird biomes. excited to see what actually happens
spice gorge
How can there be new biomes without a universe reboot?
Unless they built in mechanism for that in NEXT -- well, or since then I guess
Hmmm
violet narwhal
Yeah... We were talking about that problem yesterday.
spice gorge
Like change x type of planet with y conditions that is undiscovered
Seems that could work
basically all planets are undiscovered
so
violet narwhal
I thought of that, but that'd be... Difficult really, as the "discovered" is on the server, and the game would need to work offline too.
spice gorge
Hmm
violet narwhal
Only way I can think of, without some kind of "portal takes you to a completely new galaxy" is just adding a completely new set of systems between existing ones.
spice gorge
Maybe people who havent' checked in are the outliers and they might be affected by a retooled planet - but odds might still be thin
hmm yes
timid mist
They can't really just add more systems though, as that would mean adding new planets which would require a larger seed.
violet narwhal
Hmm?
They can't really "just" do anything... They should have thought about this possibility before and made it more future-proof. Now all they can do is either clunky or difficult.
timid mist
I don't think anyone other than the devs know what they can actually do lol
Maybe modding is clunky and difficult but that's because it's not actual game development, not indicative of the actual process
And datamining doesn't expose the entire mechanism they have
@rigid finch to answer your question, some new exotic biomes and new underwater parts, but I believe you knew about that stuff
rigid finch
yeah
i did
but the thing is
with the exotic biomes you can just replace undiscovered systems biomes with those
by swapping the props
timid mist
I don't think you can do that
violet narwhal
As I said in another channel, you can't just "replace for undiscovered systems", as the "undiscovered" is on the server, and the "replacing" is on the client and would need to work offline.
rigid finch
that's how we added the biomes into the game to get our first look at them
timid mist
Yeah but it still regenerates
rigid finch
i don't think we need to regenerate for stuff like that
timid mist
Replacing props is one thing
rigid finch
or on a massive scale anyway
timid mist
Maybe it could preserve terrain
rigid finch
like its not gonna be fucking OH MY GOD EVERYTHING FUCKING DIES like AR and Foundation
timid mist
Which I guess is the important part
rigid finch
and NEXT
violet narwhal
Well yeah, they could change the biome of somewhere and change the looks completely and as long as the terrain doesn't change, won't cause people big problems.
violet narwhal
But people may still be unhappy with their planets changing like that.
rigid finch
i didn't see a need for one
it's a very similar algorithm to the one in Foundation
just less chaotic
NEXT of course needed one
violet narwhal
I think people are assuming a water update would need some changes to underwater areas to get enough depth for it to be worthwhile.
rigid finch
i'd honestly just be happy with more colors of water
i don't like how those are gone in NEXT
outside of the filters on mega exotics
violet narwhal
Yeah, and the blue water now looks particularly strange at night.
violet narwhal
It's glowing, and has white edges, like something out of some VGA game.

rigid finch
i model stuff and that's how i got the same effect

rigid finch
if i can change the color on my multitool
violet narwhal
Yeah, those have been in there a while. I guess we may get those, as the exocraft customization is already in.
rigid finch
i have an exact match for the Rezosu z65 outside of the color
i want to own multiple multitools
tbh
timid mist
That'd be neat
violet narwhal
Yeah, that would give more of a point to the armourer too.
rigid finch
so i could keep my Rezosu
but get something like an experimental too
look at this perfection
timid mist
It has a face
rigid finch
if only it wasn't green and pink
violet narwhal
I wonder if that's some kind of default colourscheme... My armourer is surrounded by stuff that looks like that.
violet narwhal

rigid finch
yeah but its as close as were gonna get
violet narwhal
Nah
timid mist
rigid finch
i don't want to seed >n<
rigid finch

For those that have missed it, here is the previous reference to the abyss in the lore, been there since launch if I remember right, though could be since atlas rises:
The research station contains a vast array of scanners and monitoring equipment directed at bodies of water throughout the system. It is searching for signs of something designated 'abyss'.
The scientists who worked here seem to have been comparing the transmissions associated with the Atlas to strange signals found within the water.
Before they went missing, the workers concluded that this 'abyss' seemed to hold a similar yet distinct energy signature to the Atlas itself. Another power in the universe...```
{Examine the abyss}
I examine the records relating to the abyss. They show a repeating pattern of sixteen energy bursts, music that emerges from beneath the waves.
Contact appears to alter individual personality and objectives, changing even the most devoted Korvax into an agent of some unfathomable power.
yeah
golden thicket
oh wow okay. wig. I thought it just meant we'd get more water plants. lol
violet narwhal
That's... closer to what we'll get, I think.
rigid finch
considering its underwater
uncut harness
Nice
violet narwhal
The three of us journeyed to the centre: the Sentinel, the First Spawn, and the Traveller, all children of the ATLAS, all hoping for some answer in the void. The First Spawn would not stop talking, would not stop glorifying their cruel life of brutality and pain. One night they sang a song, a tale of a lost people, of an armada of freighters fleeing the abyss. Of a world where every Sentinel turned against every living thing, annihilating them all within moments. Laylaps showed no sign of understanding. It did not leave us, nor did it try and explain. Perhaps the Sentinels were right.
timid mist
Yeah
rigid finch
we've had information regarding that for about a month
violet narwhal
Low Gravity Mining Crew deployed to asteroid belt. Crew attempted to drill at several sites, but asteroid proved hollow. Surface crust crumbled, revealing an apparent abyss. Crew declined to enter chasm.
uncut harness
Hmmmm
versed jackal
there are several other abyss references as well, like abyss walker, but those could just as well be a reference to the regular usage of the word
violet narwhal
Yeah
versed jackal
I still wonder if we will get more lore on the people in the crashed freighter lore, i.e the lost people that were fleeing with an armada of freighters
prime crown
So, the abyss can make allies become enemies?
versed jackal
not sure if that is connected to the "abyss" though, sounded more like the regular usage of the word considering the universe was ending in that reality
violet narwhal
Yeah, I don't think people would need to fly far to escape something underwater 😅
prime crown
btw...
(..) They show a repeating pattern of sixteen energy bursts (...)
This can't be a coincidence
coarse zenith
What does
versed jackal
the abyss log I posted earlier
violet narwhal
Whole game is obsessed with 16s... No way to know how much of that is significant or not.
violet narwhal
Yeah... But how much of it is actually that, and how much is just "let's put a 16 here for no real reason".
coarse zenith
So the atlas loops 16 throughout a lot of things
prime crown
Also, repeating + 16 = loop16
violet narwhal
Ok, something someone said on another server got me thinking...
One of wiktionary's senses for "abyss" Hell; the bottomless pit; primeval chaos; a confined subterranean ocean.
So, one way to give a lot of space for water without messing up existing bases would be to increase the depth that can be dug (below current lowest ground point or whatever) and put underground water in there.
violet narwhal
And that "waves" interpretation for the thing in the tweet makes sense, but could also be ground?
native dragon
Water hype update.
@violet narwhal 16^16 is just over 18 quintillion.
That later number should ring a bell as it's the number of worlds in the universe.
16 is significant, not just an "oh hey let's do this"
versed jackal
and a galaxy is 16 x 16 x 16 regions wide and 16 x 16 regions high
native dragon
There were 16 travellers.
rigid finch
16
the ammount of time it takes for henlo game's nukes to reach any point in the universe (in seconds)
it's henlo games cannon

16 is significant with computers. 16 therefore is a logical divisor for NMS. It's because it works well with a lot of math.
uncut harness
16 is also the number after 15 and before 17.
native dragon
16 is half of 32 which is the number of footsteps
uncut harness
16 was also 7 days ago
This means
And one week is 7 days
So next week Abyss comes out
So we will have 7 in abyss
GOOD point

prime crown
@violet narwhal mechanics like, I don't think as well, but I also don't think they began working on it just recently, so we might see something mid sized
uncut harness
I’ve always assumed it was still just to symbolize four players
But maybe
Also the four branches of the game
They love choosing numbers that have more than one meaning
violet narwhal
I wouldn't be surprised if the stuff we know about from the files was about the extent of the new stuff.
prime crown
What do we have about the Abyss that has been datamined?
violet narwhal
I don't think anything new that specifically mentions abyss...
But if we assume water related stuff, which makes sense... yeah
prime crown
yeah, that's what I found, and oh man, no more secure waters so
uncut harness
I really hope they fix the sense of scale whilst they're at it.
violet narwhal
Presumably some kind of demonic anglerfish type thing.

Heh, I found out why nonsense like "stalks prey for days, diet: rotten meat" is so common...
A biome-specific meat type is 3x as common as any other carnivore diet in the list, and the biome-specific meat type for lush planets is "rotten meat"...
Rather than most of the other biomes that have more sensible meat types, like frozen or radioactive.
native dragon
the meat rots fast
violet narwhal
Heh, in a matter of seconds.
native dragon

timid mist
So essentially you found an explanation that makes sense, and called it nonsense? lol
violet narwhal
Eh, the explanation is for why it's unusually common. No effect on it being nonsense.
timid mist
I guess we have different definitions of nonsense then.

Stalking something that doesn't move (rotten meat) seems nonsense to me, at least.

They should add boosters that aid underwater exploration to every exocraft tbh. I dislike having my exocraft go snailspeed when it hits the water or a slight bump in the terrain in the liquid
cobalt sundial
well now you might have a submarine
so if you plan to explore the ocean then just use that

Not like going up and down but keeping it at the same speed I mean. Submarine is good for faster travel but the exocraft not going slower is still a welcome change IMO

Mine is making its way to the underwater.

It can be a real bitch trying to get it at a decent depth.
But underwater feels better to me since i hate how the terrain keeps reclaiming land bases
native dragon
Yeah, that's my biggest gripe. Most oceans are only about waist deep, or maybe deep enough to swim in.
steady ember
I found one that is leagues deep
steady ember
The only problem is not being able to build underwater
native dragon
Volcanic vents really makes me think deep oceans.

Looks like the watery fiends or whatever are likely to be some kind of anglerfish, which also suggests deep...

underwater temples would be fun

What's been datamined so far?

also why are there no crashed ships or freighters underwater
why would they all crash on land

they should add underwater buildings though

It used to be quite common to find monoliths and stuff underwater... I haven't seen any since NEXT.

The Titanic is still underwater and it wasn't even made of space age metal.

i'd like underwater crashed ships & points of interest, but it does seem like they scaled that stuff back given criticism and/or seeing few people even bothering with underwater stuff due to it being somewhat clumsy feeling to explore underwater
i enjoyed it from time to time, but it was definitely ridiculously slow going, whether in an exocraft or not
violet narwhal
Looks like along with the sub, we'll also be getting upgrades to increase lifesupport underwater, and jetpack efficiency (but not speed?)...
Looks like there are new things to interact with (or try to avoid) underwater, which presumably will need to be done from outside the sub.

Let us own more than 6 ships (6 active, we choose which) and the same for freighters
Same for multitools - give us cabinets we can build and store different ones in
steady ember
And different backpacks
icy citrus
Oooo, good one
steady ember
And better coloration for customizations
I hate how so many colors for the faces are dependant on others.
icy citrus
Agreed
steady ember
And you can't make a jet black vykeen, it makes them pale white
Makes the only good Traveller face kinda ugly.
I'm noticing crablike animals are almost always predators.
Also, why can't we remove tech and repostion it so that we can actually allign upgrades with it?
icy citrus
Always been that way 🤷
steady ember
All my tech is stuck in the corner so I can't even attach the jetpack to the upgrade modules.
Kind of an oxymoron.
crisp fern
this isn't really spoiler talk anymore tho 🤔

This is more about learning that the No Mans Sky universe is a simulation and the center of the Galaxy is just a gateway to a new Galaxy.
And that all traveller NPC's are dead.
uncut harness
Most did remain in Euclid but many have also travelled to new galaxies.
Also been a handful of people that have ventured through all 256 galaxies.
Cause they're insane.
steady ember
Also, not sure if a glitch or not, but this storm followed me onto my freighter, a gamma dust storm
I wonder if we could ever get habitats for the freighter
steady ember
I just realized instead of buying individual upgrades and applying them, I can just dupe them...
I feel so dumb.
olive narwhal
Alrighty, so im at the system closest to the center of the galaxy
I have an S class with 6 hyperdrive upgrades and yet the center is still farther than my max hyperdrive distance by 400LY
the ship i am in is an explorer S class and the only ship i have seen yet with more range to hyperdrive is an exotic i have with no modules around the hyperdrive to boost with
native dragon
Yes
Don't free nav to the center, select the path to the center and use that to slide into the core. It autojumps
olive narwhal
well im at the system, i have a full hyperdrive, the line is drawn to the center but i cant jump it
got it.....had a small bit of fuel to add
native dragon
How do I get the upgrades(from merchants in stations) to cycle to a new set?
icy citrus
They don’t change, just restock
Obviously the bonuses vary, but the ones they offer don’t
native dragon
I've been getting the exact same upgrade in every station I've visited. Same name, same bonus.
I thought it changed for each system
icy citrus
Blueprint, or module?
native dragon
Upgrade module.
icy citrus
Getting the exact same one in different systems with the same bonus sounds like a glitch to me
So you buy it, then install it - go to another system and it’s the same one?
violet narwhal
Cyclotron C?
native dragon
I buy it, install it. Reload last save, go to a different system, buy a new one.
icy citrus
Some of the weapons and shield mondules have set bonuses for S class, I know that
What module
native dragon
Hyperdrive s
icy citrus
Maybe they are linked, buy it install it - and then go to another system without reloading the save. Buy that one and see
native dragon
Leaving the ship makes an auto save though...
icy citrus
You don’t have to reload it though
native dragon
But my nanites ;-;
icy citrus
Oh screw your nanites
Lol
really though, I haven’t tried min/maxing so I don’t know the restocking mechanics
native dragon
I've probably gotta buy this one to get the next one.
icy citrus
Seems like it

No news on the abyss yet?

I wouldn't be surprised if the next news is "here, it's released".

That's how most named updates have been, besides NEXT
coarse zenith
Yea best thing to do is jjust wait for it to come
native dragon
When was the last Universe wipe?
uncut harness
NEXT
crisp fern
lol
rough copper
Won't them implementing the new weird biome types be at least some kind of universe reset? even if it only affects the weird biome planets
uncut harness
I hope so
timid mist
They could just add the assetts in, meaning the terrain could stay the same with a different set of props. Not sure though.
native dragon
Just reset planets that haven't been logged.
timid mist
That's not really how it works
native dragon
Yeah... But it could be
violet narwhal
Not really... Whether something is discovered or not is only known by the server, and unless the game was changed to ask the server for details for each planet (would always need to be online, then), the client wouldn't know.
native dragon
Hm. That's a good point right there.
violet narwhal
I guess they could bake in a list of already-discovered planets, with their existing settings, when changing how it works. Then they could do anything with the rest... It shouldn't take that much space either.
violet narwhal
If it didn't affect the terrain generation, yeah I don't see why not. May mean some people's planets suddenly become very different-looking though.
uncut harness
Friday is my guess.
mental socket
we likely get a trailer before the update
rough copper
I don't think it will come after Wednesday (Halloween)
Wednesday is also the rumored start for the Steam sale, would make sense to have it come Wednesday I think
timid mist
Could come Tuesday, since that's when they announced it for "next week". Would still allow new people to pick it up with the steam sale as well.
strange rivet
Yeah that’s what I thought as well

@toxic fjord You should check the depth
clear citrus
it's third person only
solid nebula
See it there are chasms or anything
stable escarp
so sad oh well!
quiet dagger
Why would it be different?
stable escarp
the exocrafts are third person only because first person would be a headache with how much the car jitters and bounces
uncut harness
and on land does it have changes to ?
stable escarp
but theres no reason the sub, which is a nice smooth ride like the starship, cant be first person
not like theres an in lore reason to why exocrafts are thirdperson
lol
quiet dagger
Elite dangerous has first person only vehicles that drive on land and they don’t make anyone motion sick really

i think first person would make sense for a sub

Is swimming easier to do? And can you refill your oxygen without surfacing?

There should be (was datamined) an upgrade that reduces oxygen use while underwater or similar.

Can refil oxygen without surfacing anyway, use the candle/kelp sac plants.
