Im honestly dissappointed in the lifeless-type exotics

#

They are nothing

astral vapor Dec 7, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

Im not

tulip tangle Dec 7, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

theyre like atmo-less planets without the beautiful airless space-sky

#

The living exotics are at least vaguely interesting to land on

astral vapor Dec 7, 2018, 9:39 PM

#

Maybe some could have an airless sky and some could not

tulip tangle Dec 7, 2018, 9:39 PM

#

But the clacified and metallics and stuff, they dont even have the common decency to offer resources worth noting

#

less than regular planets

astral vapor Dec 7, 2018, 9:40 PM

#

I like the strider or "cable" ones the most

#

maybe they should be more rare

#

but offer new resources

#

and maybe versions with grass

tulip tangle Dec 7, 2018, 9:40 PM

I like the megalithic forest planets like so

astral vapor Dec 8, 2018, 1:46 PM

lol

#

There was a new race with unique freighters

#

and they were hostile

#

and you could go on their freighters and try to kill them

#

and if you died on one of them you'd wake up in the freighter but it was crashed

#

they could also fly low in the atmosphere

#

there were also abandoned cities

#

I just realized that artemis's little thing in the space anomaly is just simulationception

#

................And I just realized that the reason artemis might be in some unknown void is because of the death of nada + polo + presumably the anomly with them

#

She's just a part of the loop like everybody else

mighty rampart Dec 9, 2018, 10:25 AM

#

how long is the null quest?

uncut harness Dec 9, 2018, 8:58 PM

#

You're given a choice to leave the galaxy and go to a new one or stay in that galaxy.

#

Correct, nothing "amazing". Each galaxy spawns more of a planet type, that's it really.

#

No reason to leave Euclid galaxy.

worldly epoch Dec 9, 2018, 9:00 PM

#

it makes a new system

#

and then it just points you to some random black hole

#

so it's not too special

#

Also I made the choice to leave Euclid, and I can say it was a bad decision. Sure it's refreshing to an extent, especially with a different color for the center (It's red in hilbert instead of white) but I lost every base I owned.

mental socket Dec 9, 2018, 11:38 PM

#

it is

#

base on a freighter will never be lost unless you change freighters

uncut harness Dec 9, 2018, 11:39 PM

#

I think so

mental socket Dec 9, 2018, 11:40 PM

#

Been playing since day one. Got a freighter when they first got introduced and can confirm they won't. With next we did lose our freighter bases because of the interior layout change

#

So you should be able to keep the feighter base forever unless they decide to change the layout again

#

Your bases won't technically be lost either when changing galaxies. They are just left in the previous galaxy and only way of jumping back is to go through all of the galaxies until you're back in Euclid

worldly epoch Dec 10, 2018, 1:53 AM

#

Lol.

#

Only takes 255 times

#

And yeah I have my freighter base still

#

I still have my freighter from euclid too

tribal coyote Dec 10, 2018, 4:45 AM

#

Saying this here as it may be a spoiler for some, but damn I did not expect this game to give me some feels. Just came back after playing at release and finding Artemis' grave got me a little.

mighty rampart Dec 10, 2018, 7:46 AM

#

I didn't feel much, it was pretty predictable for me

#

But when the point came where I had the choice of letting him live in the simulation or die peacefully, got me all mentally rekt

mighty rampart Dec 10, 2018, 8:03 AM

#

Isn't the Atlas supposed to take my Heart of the Sun?

#

I still have it in my inventory

mighty rampart Dec 10, 2018, 12:16 PM

#

Oh no my game broke
It's making me redo the mind arc mission and now it's stuck at "answers may be found in the stars"

#

Going to a different system fixed it

worldly epoch Dec 10, 2018, 10:16 PM

#

Good news for me, I accidentally found out how to fix the problem on my main involving Remembrance whilst trying to find the time value so I can let polo do the next milestone thingy for me

#

.....And I think I just found it

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:32 AM

#

hey, umm is the wiki lore on artemis complete? because I'm not sure if I understood the atlas storyline completely.

#

what was the purpose of the reset? is the atlas still gonna die in 16 mins even AFTER the reset?

#

or you reset the universe so atlas doesn't die? I didn't get the whole reset part with artemis what was the reason for it?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:33 AM

#

16 minutes on an alien timeline.
ATLAS knows it's dying and believes a reset is the only choice to save itself.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:33 AM

#

the rogue data on wiki doesn't make much sense at all

#

why though? like it's windows is frozen so it wants to restart it? 😄

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:34 AM

#

Corrupted data, more like a fresh install of the OS.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:34 AM

#

I mean what's the significance of resetting one universe if it's simulating countless ones at the same time?

#

but after you reset it the anomaly glitches are still there

#

shouldn't the reset have removed the corrupted travelers and multiplayer then?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:35 AM

#

The reset starts a new universe.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:35 AM

#

but the new universe still has glitched travelers in it, so the reset didn't do much?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:35 AM

#

The glitches are part of another entity that is as powerful as Atlas.

#

It's 2 simulations merging together in the simplest of terms.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:36 AM

#

but after you reset, isn't a dialog somewhere that says I don't know how much 16 mins is in my world, so that means the atlas is still dying in 16 mins of real time no?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:36 AM

#

16 minutes Atlas time.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:36 AM

#

yeah 16 mins of real time even after reset so atlas is still gonna die after reset?

#

also the rogue data said that atlas could only simulate until a point where someone puts its hands on the chassis

#

so every time it simulates a universe it always ends the same and it knows the reset won't save it because atlas already saw the end before?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:38 AM

#

No, it resets cause it thinks it's dying. It's been reset a number of times previous to the reset that you do.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:38 AM

#

the rogue data is what's confusing

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:39 AM

#

There's another entity as powerful as Atlas, storyline of that was setup with The Abyss.
Doing the underwater missions may help that make a little bit more sense.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:39 AM

#

null said there was one universe where sentinels went rogue and killed everyone, but he apparently also reset the universe he was in, were they the same universe? I mean did null reset the universe where sentinels killed everyone?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:39 AM

#

Yes.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:39 AM

#

oh I had no idea about that, there wasn't anything on wiki for abyss

#

so why is null sorry for doing it if everyone was already killed by sentinels?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

Cause he has already reset and knows what happens after.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

he feels guilty for resetting a universe with no life in it because sentinels killed them all?

#

oh so he's just scarred we're gonna reset HIM?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

Simply put yes but he's also aware that it's a repeating loop.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

I still don't get the reset though 😰

#

is atlas gonna die for real or not? does it reset like everytime it gets down to 16 min or something?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:42 AM

#

It's already "died" many times over.

#

This isn't the first reset of Atlas and won't be the last.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

then what's the significance of 16 mins then? every time it's reset it has 16 mins left or it'll blow up?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

16 minutes until Atlas restarts.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

😵

#

AFTER you reset it, 16 mins of atlas time until everything AFTER the reset is deleted?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

Yes, exactly.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

then why does it put you in a new universe immediately? the NEW universe you get put in is what's getting reset not the old one? #mindblown

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

Old one is deleted, new one is after the reset.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

so the command you give the ai deletes euclid, regenerates a new universe with your parameters, then what happens after?

#

what happens after the actual reset I mean?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

New galaxy is created for you to explore but the Atlas thinks it's dying again.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

so it gets reset twice effectively?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

More than twice.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

you soft reset it, then after a while it hard resets itself?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

Infinitely

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

one cycle

#

one cycle is two resets?

#

'cuz it deletes your original universe, then it deletes the new universe too after 16 mins?

#

why does it delete the original universe? isn't euclid gonna be gone anyway after 16 mins are up? why regenerate a new one on the spot if the actual reset is gonna do it anyway?

#

I mean why regenerate twice? just wait for reset?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

Imagine if you was to do a fresh install of your operating system but choose to delete all personal files.

#

It's basically that.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

but the personal files were in euclid 😦

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

Yes, they're now gone.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

atlas like deleted the personal files and was like oops, maybe play some minesweeper in the meantime while I'm reformatting

#

then you put more personal files on the new galaxy, 16 mins end and it deletes them too

#

it deletes your files twice then be like deal with it 😄

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

No, 16 minutes until reset is complete.

#

Completely fresh and new operating system.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

what happens when 16 mins are over in your NEW galaxy?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

Reset

#

New galaxy

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

you mean reset as in with no warning or like traveler quest?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

Exactly the same storyline in new galaxy.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

I mean one full cycle is new galaxy to reset or new galaxy to reset to new galaxy

#

I mean when you choose to reset, you have 16 mins until the next CHOICE or next auto reset?

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

Next auto reset.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

then it deletes you twice

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

Infinitely.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

so you choose to reset instantly, then after 16 more mins atlas resets itself 'cuz screw you, then after that it thinks it's gonna die again and makes another traveler to reset it and so on?

#

it probably should've figured out by now that whatever's wrong with it, resetting ain't gonna fix it 😂

#

I thought it was dying permanently 'cuz the battery or whatever was running out and THIS one was its last reset before RIP

mighty rampart Dec 11, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

Does the Artemis quest keep repeating itself or did I get myself into a bug

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

You choosing to reset starts the process, it's not instant. It starts the procedure of wiping data and re-installing the OS.
Atlas thinks it's dying and is trying to save itself, each reset the Atlas changes something in the hope that it will save itself but thinks it's still dying anyway.
Travellers are created by Atlas to save itself.

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

my atlas quest is bugged and repeats itself with star cores, my artemis is explore galaxy open ended

uncut harness Dec 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

There is another entity that is as powerful as Atlas that also has as much control and power over the simulation that the Atlas does.

mighty rampart Dec 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

Yeah my Atlas didn't take the heart of the sun

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

mighty rampart Dec 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

Not sure if I should throw it away or no

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

oh I get it now, it's like a gradual format that STARTS with euclid like a hdd partition

#

it eventually deletes everything after 16 mins, you just might be the last drive right?

#

you reset it, euclid is like drive c it goes instantly

mighty rampart Dec 11, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

Hey @thick seal if you're in a diff galaxy then you can't use portals to come back to Euclid, right?

thick seal Dec 11, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

you can use portals to go different galaxies????

#

pretty sure you can't go to any galaxy not just euclic

#

but you can go back to euclid if you go to center 255 times

mighty rampart Dec 11, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

I mean if you use someone's coords that are in Euclid but you're in eiss

you get on different planets

@mighty rampart the heart of the sun is used when you choose the next Galaxy or something

versed jackal Dec 12, 2018, 9:03 PM

Heart of the sun is used at the end of the atlas path to "create a new star", and is also used for a crafting recipe for the remembrance which you get after finishing the main storyline(artemis)

but artemis path will delete the galaxy you made in atlas path

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:48 PM

#

I think

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

isn't atlas simulating UNIVERSES not galaxies?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

Reset is Atlas's attempt to save itself.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

255 galaxies is in his 1 universe

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

The Atlas is simulating a universe yes

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

whatever you made with heart of sun will get deleted when reset

#

so why tf is atlas making new galaxies within a universe that he will soon reset?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

It's not making new galaxies

#

When the Atlas resets

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:50 PM

#

atlas knows it's gonna reset, why ask for heart of sun? it will be deleted anyway after the reset because it's in the current universe

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:50 PM

#

so does the universe

#

so the galaxy is named something else now

#

because it got reset

#

Also apparently there are other universes as well

#

other Atlas's

#

^

#

Which is what The Abyss introduced.

#

When MP was introduced the lore said that the universes were colliding or some hippy shit

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:51 PM

#

I know, maybe there's a misunderstanding somewhere.

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:51 PM

#

And that different travellers were glitching into other universes

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:51 PM

#

When you give atlas heart of sun, does it not add a galaxy to the CURRENT universe with it?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:51 PM

#

but only as orbs

#

Basically lore-wise, MP is just a giant bug in the code of the Atlas

plucky marsh Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

travellers supposedly only one for one universe. now we are... seeing each others.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

atlas takes your heart of sun and makes a new galaxy with it IN CURRENT UNIVERSE

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

Yes but you also need to understand we had this option BEFORE the Artemis storyline was introduced.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

when you reset CURRENT UNIVERSE the galaxy you made will be gone too

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

Travellers are muliverse

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

so atlas didn't know he was dying then?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

only reason they are in the same universe now

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

even though he got reset multiple times?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

is because

#

the boundaries broke

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

then atlas is just dumb 😛

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

The Atlas is just panicking.

#

Yup

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:53 PM

#

so basically when he asked for heart of sun atlas didn't know it will be wasted?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:53 PM

#

It knows

#

It's to save itself

#

^

#

from something

#

This is the equivalent of you begging for your life if someone was threatning you.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:53 PM

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

AI doesn't have feelings it's simulating feelings for other races

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

Basically it will get reset either way and it knows, so it asks you to reset it now because it will be less painful

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

didn't it also have a monitoring protocol called idk what that for whatever reason talks in your spacesuit now?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

No, your suit is called Telamon.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

wouldn't it be his job to deal with the problem instead of atlas itself?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

Not part of Atlas.

#

Yeah this traveller became the voice of our suits

plucky marsh Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

Atlas is a very very very advanced AI beyond our current understanding xD

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

called Telamon

#

He questioned things a bit too much

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

yeah isn't it his job to fix this problem?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

No, you got picked to fix this problem.

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Telamon was a traveller that came before, I think?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Yup

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Telamon wasn't Atlas security protocol was it?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Hmmm

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

didn't atlas have a security protocol above itself?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

I don't think so

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

then it had sentinels below

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Oh yes

#

It did

#

Telamon was not the protocol though

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

what happened to the security protocol? it had ONE job 😄

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:56 PM

#

It failed

#

😛

#

Hahaha

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

...Telamon, a security sub-protocol designed to monitor the Atlas in case of rampancy.

#

So, he was the protocol.

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

Oh

#

Oh!

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

so the reason atlas simulated travelers in the first place isn't because they're from the corrupted memory of atlas's creator? atlas doesn't know what to do, maybe its simulated creator might know?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

Guess he was

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

That's correct

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

I thought the whole point of anomalies existing was because atlas is dumb as shit but can simulate its creator who is smart.

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

Mhm

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

`In its fear, in its confusion, the ATLAS awakens. It attempts to summon its creator back into being.

It wants to know what to do before the end. It wants to know why it was abandoned, why it has to face this moment alone. It wants to know why I left it behind.`

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

so the logical step would be to simulate the creator or whatever's left of it.

#

yes exactly, anomalies are the race that created atlas. so atlas does have a creator.

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

The Atlas is a little baby who got left alone with way too much power

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

and is now panicking

#

It might have a creator

#

But we will never know

#

because rip loop16

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

Some alien race made atlas, it became obsolete then left it. Some dude was supposed to turn off atlas but instead of turning it off he decided to let atlas scan his brain 'cuz what could go wrong. Right?

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

It does have a Creator

#

Says so in the first rogue data

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:59 PM

#

turns out the creators weren't that smart either afterall 😄

#

I would've pulled the plug then nuked the place lmao

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 1:59 PM

#

What we don't know is WHY the Creator left. It just does.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 1:59 PM

#

like that's the most dangerous machine on your entire planet, why tf would you give it your brain?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 1:59 PM

Oh shit

maybe when Emily died

#

The creator left

#

Emily was the creator

#

😩

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 2:00 PM

#

the dude still let himself be simulated in atlas though it's not like atlas kidnapped or hijacked his brain or something

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 2:00 PM

#

The rogue data was in before all that happened, though, right?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 2:00 PM

visual mirage Dec 13, 2018, 2:00 PM

letting yourself be scanned by a machine that simulates universes is pretty high on the list of dumbest things that you can possibly do🤗

Why? I'd do it if I built it.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 2:01 PM

I mean it's already a simulation so who cares, what difference does it make how many layers deep it goes so I just put artemis in the machine thing

artemis was my bae

he either killed himself or sentinels killed him, no way he just forgot about the guy who saved him

that's actually a real debate though rose

#

even elon musk has talked about it, there was a debate on simulation theory in 2016 hosted by neil degrasee tyseon if I'm not mistaken

#

I'd highly recommend watching that

#

what I'm trying to say is that simulation theory isn't a joke in the science community, there are actual scientists working on it (although very few)

#

we MIGHT very well be in a simulation right now

#

I personally don't think we are but the simulation argument is very compelling

#

https://www.simulation-argument.com/simulation.pdf <= recommend reading this too

#

and I stress that it's not a joke/troll paper👌

#

that dude nick bostrom is pretty (in)famous for this in fact

#

@plucky marsh ^

#

the thing with simulation hypothesis is that we're assuming that the only barrier to simulating entire universes is computing power, or in other words, given enough processing power, universes can be simulated on a computer. what's not often discussed is whether it is even possible to simulate universes, like with quantum mechanics and chaos theory, we will need infinite precision or an algorithm that can at least generate infinite precision data in order to be able to simulate a universe. the concept of consciousness and soul is a whole another debate, but is a Turing machine even capable of simulating universes? the hypothesis assumes the answer is yes.

#

right now, we need more and more processing power to simulate atoms with more accuracy, but is that enough? imagine you had access to a computer with infinite processing power, HOW will you simulate a universe? or in other words, how do you first prove that it is possible for a turing machine to simulate a universe accurately, including consciousness ?

uncut harness Dec 13, 2018, 3:40 PM

Our universe follows the same structure as a hologram universe.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 3:40 PM

then any data IN the simulation is fabricated, so we can't just assume 1st that it's correct and 2nd OUR laws of physics apply to the layer above our universe

the point is, it's kinda a weird one in a sense that there are very compelling arguments for both sides

You can argue literally anything as evidence proves to both yes and no with literally everything.

thick seal Dec 13, 2018, 3:41 PM

the notion that reality is a dream isn't new

#

the simulation theory is just a new skin for it

#

but a theory has to be falsifiable otherwise it's not a good theory

#

lmao yeah tbh you could argue for literally anything

#

the new evidence shows that a computer BOUND BY OUR laws of physics cannot simulate our own universe

#

which means in the future we will never be able to run ancestor simulations of our own past

sadly that only knocks out half of nick's premises 😂

interesting in the "bruh what the actual fuck you been smoking" kind of way🤗

#

like what train of thought passes this station

#

and it messes with your head because no matter how hard you try, you just can't disprove it

#

then you think, hold on a sec, what if it's actually right?😱

#

that's not a problem with flat earth theory, it's pure bs and you CAN easily disprove it

#

you can filter out most of the nonsense with the scientific method, it's the few ones you can't that are truly scary

elder mulch Dec 13, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

@uncut harness that's correct, everything CAN be argued as evidence for whatever. the question is whether people can come to multiple, rational, logical, conclusions from that same evidence. Most times you can, in fact, have multiple conclusions that are all rational, logical, conclusions using the same evidence. the hope is that as you continue to gather evidence, the additional evidence will support one conclusion over others.

elder mulch Dec 13, 2018, 6:27 PM

#

i think the real problem is less that people can come to a conclusion from available evidence that our universe is a simulation, and more a problem of our concept of reality. it is perfectly feasible the "reality" IS a simulation, that isn't really problematic unless of course you just absolutely are not willing to accept that idea on a personal level, for personal existential insecurity reasons.

#

accepting it's a simulation doen't change anything. reality as we know it keeps on chugging either way. it just opens up directions we can explore philosophically and scientifically when trying to determine how we can manipulate the universe around us, which is what we've always done, look for new ways to utilize the universe we exist in. and if the simulation theory is correct, perhaps even leave the universe we exist in, or at least glimpse part of that reality that exists outside the simulation.

#

in the case of NMS I get the impression that existence is toroidal. that is, the simulation is the reality it is simulating. they created a computer capable of so accurately simulating their universe that it actually is the universe. that which happens in the simulation happens in the external unverse because they are one in the same. ATLAS freaks out upon discovering this because it is about to be destroyed. the only solution: restart the simulation, else everything ends.

elder mulch Dec 13, 2018, 7:01 PM

#

on an interesting side note, we can actually define a universe mathematically with a finer resolution than our own real universe has. so we could actually write a program that defines a minimum resolution of a simulated universe far smaller than the Planck length. food for thought. Our universe actually has a minimum resolution, if it is a simulation it's creators clearly weren't interested in giving it any better resolution and instead spent the presumably finite system resources on other things. They could have (mathematically) given it finer resolution and didn't. so either they were bumping up against their own technical limitations, or decided a finer resolution wasn't needed, asuming it is a simulation.

So slight spoilers

The creature we got in a zoo

So I think it's not possible to add in other creature (say via modding)

Hay guys, a question for you: havent reached the center of the galaxy so far, but if i do so i will be "warped" to a new one and have to start again? Do you lose all your tech/stuff/ships? And as far as i understood you can try to reach the center of this new galaxy. How many galaxys are there? Or are there infinite galaxys? thank you!

icy citrus Dec 16, 2018, 1:10 PM

#

You will be warped to the next one if you go to the center
You don’t lose anything but your bases (which you could disassemble manually beforehand) and your active ships tech, suit tech and multitool tech will be damaged

#

256 galaxies you can reach, counting the one you start in

languid ridge Dec 16, 2018, 1:24 PM

#

@icy citrus okay thank you. And is there any point in reaching the center of the last galaxy?

icy citrus Dec 16, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

If you went through the rest - then you have to I would think. Gameplay wise you loop back to Euclid - but from what I understand it isn’t named Euclid, it gets a procgen name, but mirrors Euclid. I might be behind the times on that one though - either way you go back to 1

icy citrus Dec 19, 2018, 2:57 PM

So maybe we will see cities at some point

🤷

There isn’t lore for that, but I would assume because we are at the beginning of the universe so to speak

i mean I get the sentinels are supposed to be some kind of police force employed by the atlas etc

icy citrus Dec 19, 2018, 2:59 PM

I think because they aren’t building cities, they are left alone - maybe when they start to colonize further is when the sentinels get pissed

the exterior hulls of space stations are pretty thick. maybe the sentinels are in fact attacking them too?

#

Might be better to just allow to you to sit in orbit and then take a smaller ship to the surface.

hybrid pendant Dec 21, 2018, 5:13 PM

#

remember when we saw the fregates for the first time and we be like omg they may be drivable

uncut harness Dec 21, 2018, 5:13 PM

#

It couldn’t be that different from landing a ship

#

And you could have automatic landers

timid mist Dec 21, 2018, 5:14 PM

#

I mean in terms of terrain/clipping

#

Frigates are massive compared to regular ships

#

It'd look kinda silly, unless there were specific spots that allowed you to land

uncut harness Dec 21, 2018, 5:14 PM

#

I could they could hover above the ground and extend a ladder down or something

timid mist Dec 21, 2018, 5:15 PM

#

Maybe

hybrid pendant Dec 21, 2018, 5:15 PM

#

we needed a middle size between a normal ship and a freighter that could have been drivable

uncut harness Dec 21, 2018, 5:15 PM

#

It’s still something I’d like to see as a mod perhaps

hybrid pendant Dec 21, 2018, 5:15 PM

#

guess we are just gonna walk around it and wait to repair them

timid mist Dec 21, 2018, 5:17 PM

#

Even if I can't pilot my frigate I'd like to have access to the control room/wherever the crew happens to be hiding

icy citrus Dec 21, 2018, 5:17 PM

#

I want firing for crew, so I can personally fire all geks

hybrid pendant Dec 21, 2018, 5:17 PM

#

i wish i could be able to have friend and be like we are living on the ship like a crew

timid mist Dec 21, 2018, 5:17 PM

#

aeyes

#

You could make a freighter base

hybrid pendant Dec 21, 2018, 5:18 PM

#

and make it still on one place with 3 others without knowing what we could do or if we warp together if we wont glitch trough it

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 4:42 AM

#

So, if I don't want to get my base eaten, I should refuse atlas?

#

I therefore discard the ability to chose any of the galaxies presented, as traveling to the center gives me other choices?

#

Also how does refusing atlas matter from the lore point? If he's dying, shouldn't I do that? How does that matter in regard of polo, nada, artemis, null, apollo etc?

#

Also keeping artemis alive, how does that affect the story? Will I ever be able to interact with them again? Noticed, that the simulation is closed now.

icy citrus Dec 22, 2018, 11:05 AM

#

Traveling to the center and reaching it takes you to the next galaxy in line, finishing the Artemis path allows you to choose the type of galaxy you want to go to. From a gameplay perspective nothing changes, you can still talk with the anomaly - no more convos with null or the others after the path is concluded. Keeping Artemis in the sim changes nothing but some dialogue, it’s a no wrong choice kinda thing - do what you think is right

plucky marsh Dec 22, 2018, 11:41 AM

#

from lore point, I think the traveller should do what Atlas asks, not because wanting to preserve their own life, but out of compassion, of understanding its pain. Like singing a song to a dying kid that asks for it, even tho the song wont save their life

violet narwhal Dec 22, 2018, 12:18 PM

#

Singing a song doesn't generally result in you being evicted though.

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

how badly evicted tho? Multitool? Your inventory space and uprades?

#

I know ship is the same, but gets badly damaged.

#

and you can still summon your freighter.

#

also when I chose to reset the simulation, and then joined someone in euclid, that's even possible?

#

if so, can I build a base, and then teleport between galaxies at will?

icy citrus Dec 22, 2018, 2:58 PM

#

No

#

You can join and play

#

Exosuit tech and multitool tech are damaged, but not gone - like the active ship

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 5:41 PM

#

Theory:

#

We know Atlas is a computer

#

But that begs the question

#

Is there a central control station? An Atlas-like structure that acts like an admin computer?

#

Could give you the option to choose what galaxy you wish to go to, and to whatever point in a galaxy you choose.

#

Or even the choice on whether or not to help fix Atlas, or end the simulation.

plucky marsh Dec 22, 2018, 6:20 PM

#

as far as we know from the lore, Atlas is located outside the simulation so you cant fix it since you are just simulation

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

The creator of the atlas is mentioned a few times

#

Is that what you mean,

#

?

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 6:43 PM

Sort of

#

Well damn

I just read into more of the lore

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 8:32 PM

#

One word: ARG

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:24 PM

#

Hmm? @uncut harness

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

If you already thought it was deep, we had two seasons of an ARG which broadened it quite a bit

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

Is the ARG fanmade?

icy citrus Dec 22, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

Professionals, hired by HG

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

Led to two major game updates

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

Oh?

#

I'm intrigued now

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:30 PM

#

I did a write up on it. I summarized a lot of the content. Needless to say I was intrigued. It’s called Waking Titan

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:31 PM

#

I've heard about that

#

But don't know anything about it

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:31 PM

#

And apparently it may come back. Or at least an ARG might, since it was in the survey

#

A survey HG did to determine what the fans want a few months ago

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:32 PM

#

I mean, I had this sort of theory that would be neat to see played out.

#

Which I explained above with the whole admin terminal to Atlas

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

There’s an artificial intelligence named Loop16 that ran on the Atlas engine similarly to its creator

#

To add to what the person said earlier

#

She went under the alias of Emily Warren and helped lead the game’s development in real time to 1.3 and then subsequently 1.5 upon the arrival of W/ARE tech’s post VR headset that led to the influx of the Anomalies

#

She was... important, i guess, for a TL;DR

#

Speaking of which, I never completed The Abyss, or rather I never started it at all. I still need to do that.

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

So Loop16 created the anomalies?

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

I’m more versed in the ARG

#

No, I don’t think she really “created” them. They were people stuck to a faulty virtual-reality-esque device, to which had No Man’s Sky on it. She didn’t load NMS even though she helped ascend its development, or at least that’s how I view it

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

So

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

In Season 2, she tried to get them out. We did for the most part even though lots of them died. One remained stuck, though. A figure mentioned very bluntly at the beginning of the game

#

#2311T

#

It was cool to say the least

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

Sword Art Online with amnesia

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

Yes

#

There’s also the whole CREATOR thing which explains the “true” origin of the ATLAS. Travelers are replicated versions of the ATLAS’ creator it spawned in for whatever reason and additionally the dreamers fall under its category mostly because they have a similar story (spawned into the simulation from a real, out-of-simulation origin)

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

That puts a bit more depth into what I'd want to do with the theory.

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:42 PM

#

Also it’s important to note that “our world,” aka the one that is played into by the ARG, is more than likely also a simulation like No Man’s Sky potentially STILL on the Atlas engine itself.

#

So we aren’t really separate from it, either by us being a simulation or we’re actually part of its infinite cry into multiple realities

#

This is where the world of glass comes in as well

#

I’m basically just rephrasing my google document

#

Which got taken down by the way (my twitter account was locked. Long story)

#

I can explain that if you’d like

#

I mean, the glass

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

Yeah

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

It’s just my interpretation

#

Okay, so from what we know the World of Glass is a place beyond reality that all dead things transpire. As a result, it seems like an underlying repository, but the question people usually have is how far and what it is past this.

In the ARG, they teased the concept of the infinite realities in which the ATLAS inhabits and extends by its simulatory nature by showing an infinity mirror, which akin to its name is made of glass. In this infinity mirror, they put the ATLAS over its surface causing it to expand itself across every layer of reflected infinity. The World of Glass, I think, is a portion of this. Since everything is symbolized as being made of glass and the ATLAS is reflected in it, the world of glass is what composes the infinite nature of the ATLAS.

#

And as a result, also holds the truth of the universe. It’s infinite and the ATLAS is a reflected spectacle in its whole, which explains why it’s so important in the plot of No Man’s Sky and why it is constantly referenced

#

Some quotes I have on the top of my head: “Everything pours through glass in the end,” and “The dark heart of reality,” from what I can remember.

#

Hehe, I knew I had deja vu

📎 image0.png

#

Holy shit my battery is also on 16%

#

Loop16 and the whole “sixteen minutes till the ATLAS dies” thing

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

I learned about the Atlas 16 minute thing today

#

And that's a lot to take in

#

The ARG is canon?

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

Yep

floral anchor Dec 22, 2018, 10:14 PM

#

Alright

#

I'm definitely getting into this

uncut harness Dec 22, 2018, 10:32 PM

#

Basically No Man’s Sky, in the ARG universe, is a game just like it is IRL. Only the actual story of development is wildly different.

#

As far as I can see, No Man’s Sky wasn’t aided by an actual artificial intelligence, reality-inducing engine, or faulty headsets designed to play games or work in your sleep

#

If you want a link of a much larger and more developed version of what I said here today, let me know.

#

It’s only slightly outdated because I never factored in the ABYSS update’s storyline content since it was made before. Honestly because I’m not that interested

#

Speaking of which, does anyone just have data mined logs of it?

uh how i wish ARG returns

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

Serious question

#

Who is the character you play as?

#

I know you are known as an "Anomaly", but like, do we know who he/she is supposed to be? Like where they came from?

#

@uncut harness @mild condor either of you know?

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

You play as a Dreamer in 1.5. An ordinary traveler beforehand.

#

Both are travelers

#

But the dreamer is special in its regard

#

There’s some text at the beginning that suggests some sort of connection to #2311T that’s ambiguous as hell, so you may have a connection to them (which is extremely likely given how they were the only ones not to escape the W/ARE experiment). But it would be ignorant not to point out how each of the real life exosuits the Dreamers were wearing are all mixed and matched in the simulation, so it may be all of them too. Nobody knows for sure

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

So Post-Next, you're a Dreamer. But Pre-Next, you were created by Atlas as a Traveler?

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

Yes

#

(Probably).

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

But you're an "Anomaly", as far as I know.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

Yeah I disagree

#

We were but not anymore. We’re still part of the Traveller protocol but not the same Travellers I cited by the Atlas

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

So

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

incited*

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

That makes us Anomalies

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

Why else are traditional travelers and anomalies separated in the race menu

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

We don't fit exactly within Traveler, but we are placed there technically.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

And since the plot still says you’re a traveller, you could consider yourself one even though you have an altered origin story (or otherwise the game just ignores how there’s been a change and you really did force yourself so much into the simulation it doesn’t even know itself)

#

Also the term traveller anomaly was used before 1.5

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

Hence, Anomaly. There is no category for your character within the system's files. You don't fit under Traveler, Gek, Vy'keen, or Korvax.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

The game referred to us as an anomaly for a while now. That’s why I’m not a big fan of the name of the Dreamers in the game lol

#

It can get confusing

#

Including the name of Nada and Polo’s starship

#

Errrr station

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:39 PM

#

That's why I've been on this "Do not trust anyone" notion. The Travelers are not with you. Polo and Nada aren't with you. Atlas isn't with you.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

Also everyone who once said season one is a prequel to all of No Man’s Sky even before 1.3 is ignoring how the implication sounds more like a prequel story to 1.3’s storyline. Also, Emily is an Atlas AI, but not the Atlas. At least that’s what I think from what I’ve read

#

Emily?

#

What’s that

#

And since the ARG is a prequel to 1.3’s storyline (IMO), No Man’s Sky did exist before, or we’ve got a plot hole from the vlogs Emily did when Loop16 was masquerading

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

They only want you to believe that everything around you is real.

Atlas makes you believe it is a sort of dying God that needs to be pitied so you don't think twice about him.

The Travelers were created by Atlas, so who's to say what they are doing isn't nearly a protocol to distract you?

Nada and Polo are also distractions. They don't want you to think about ahy you exist, merely to push you to explore and do "Daily Quests" for false earnings.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:43 PM

Well from what I know Atlas really is dying

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:43 PM

Not very smart. All it did was make things even more existential

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:45 PM

So my theory is that you can't trust anyone. Atlas created this universe.

Every creature/sentinel is his eyes and ears. No matter what, you are being watched.

uncut harness Dec 24, 2018, 6:46 PM

#

Ring lore is still my favorite. Also the World of Glass. ARG is good and I’m better articulated in it but it’s hard to follow if you weren’t in it

floral anchor Dec 24, 2018, 6:46 PM

#

He knows you don't belong in the system and that you can ruin everything, so his goal is to make you believe you are part of it.

#

Telamon is a good example. The AI that is supposed to make sure he doesn't go rampant, gets locked into your Exosuit.

@mild condor That's why he erased your memories
