Is there stuff you can buy with quicksilver yet?
near schooner
milking is a gimmick..... you use some machine
ancient sand
If so sned screenshot
echo musk
@ancient sand cosmetics
vital lantern
nothing new
stuck patrol
where is the quicksilver guy though
near schooner
@ancient sand the same stuff we have in visions
stuck patrol
I looked all over the Nexus
vital lantern
in the hub
echo musk
where to you get into the hub
ancient sand
Milking was always going to be a gimick
echo musk
cant find a "summon anomaly" button anywhere
ancient sand
But i dont see anyone talking about the cooking
icy citrus
It's the robot guy before you get to any other vendors
ancient sand
Has anyone done cooking
stuck patrol
fun fact: NMS is smaller than Left 4 Dead 2
icy citrus
I have not cooked a thing
violet narwhal
Summon anomaly is in the quick menu
near schooner
I wish they would have added more community stuff TBH
ancient sand
How do you cook
echo musk
@violet narwhal its not though
violet narwhal
In the summon stuff submenu?
echo musk
yeah not there
stuck patrol
NMS is smaller than frickin Portal 2
violet narwhal
Have you seen the anomaly before in that save?
echo musk
yes
ancient sand
Ok is there a special crafting machine
violet narwhal
Try doing it the old way then, select anomaly mission, go into space, scan?
ancient sand
How is space doordash
echo musk
hm
violet narwhal
Welp
near schooner
you get it in creative cause everything is unlocked
stuck patrol
my Normal pre-beyond save could call the Anomaly :o
near schooner
just like when nobody could get the blue print analyser in NEXT .... just have to wait for patch
stuck patrol
didn't get that problem in Next either
viral yarrow
Yep there's a bug that doesn't let you build shit on your base
near schooner
well makes sense.....a handful of people also managed to get the blue print machine in next
but most did not
its a bug
and why people always say to back up your pre-update save
cause this stuff can happen
@viral yarrow so another big bug
oof
uncut harness
Why does it take so many items to fuel the power piece? o_o
_> Is all of this pre-BEYOND issues? Is it better to just start again?
@uncut harness No one knows
stuck patrol
yeah I'm in Eissentam
uncut harness
Like I think it took 2k Carbon from me and powered my teleporter for maybe 3 minutes?
near schooner
OH.....see mine was a restarted save and I was mid way
near schooner
so since they changed the way anamolys come....I think those mid missions are stuck
you probably unlock the option on first contact
uncut harness
@near schooner Unlikely, they combined Artemis's stuff with the anomaly storyline
Flash has been dead for years, its about time support dies for it too
near schooner
@uncut harness yeah but before you had to find the anomaly on the galaxy map
now you call it
so if mission 1 unlocked the option
uncut harness
aye, it's about adobe air now
uncut harness
B-but muh coolmath games
crisp fern
@near schooner i can't for the life of me figure out wtf HG's fetish is for realtime timers
crisp fern
like seriously, i get not wanting to make people leave the game on, but you can easily do that by just adding a rest option or some other way to advance in-game time
kindred wagon
I've noticed spaceships npc's fly around look way different
like there are more variants or types
not 100% sure but they look like they are completely different templates/shapes
cloud epoch
how soon into a new save's progression does the game want you to go to the nexus?
kindred wagon
idk
I'm going kinda at a lax pace but I'm prob 2 hours in
I think I'm close
just got antimatter blueprint
but I stopped for a half hour to mine recourses and fiddle with base building so you could probably get to where I am within an hour
icy citrus
Yeah, shouldn't be too long after Awakenings
cloud epoch
dunno if i want to fiddle with it now or wait for a few more days worth of fixes...
crisp fern
btw do you still have to muck about with basebuilding in the revised intro? Or does it let you bounce past that
jagged cape
hasn't asked me to yet.. just asked me to fly to space. but I forget where the intro had base building
i'm debating if I should continue and fly in to space.. or spend time looking around for that last "rare,base" fauna according to the discovery menu
nocturne zephyr
I started a new save for VR in normal and played 2.5 hours. got to the point where it asked me to build a base computer then stopped
don't think I will continue that save. not enough has changed with planets/exploration to drive me to do it all again.
near schooner
hmmm
crisp fern
oh. so it still wants you to build a base at the start sorta?
nocturne zephyr
yes it seems so
crisp fern
😔
near schooner
its ok
nocturne zephyr
but who knows, maybe it's dialed down further in
near schooner
hopefully we get mods working again and the timers can be KILLED
nocturne zephyr
btw
crisp fern
interesting, the star systems as I load in on PC don't show exploration(?) percentages 🤔
nocturne zephyr
any datamines?
uncut harness
Some weird changes...
Instead of interacting with NPC ships now
You have to find the NPC itself outside of his ship
near schooner
@crisp fern I had been working on that very mod before life got complicated. I had almost managed a mod to kill all the timers
unless your up for it .... I might try again
@nocturne zephyr datamines? we already have the update
icy citrus
That's not weird, it's actualy logical
nocturne zephyr
ha i'm asking that too early
near schooner
well the group is already working on decoding the files
but ye
way to early
a lot changed
nocturne zephyr
soontm
crisp fern
oh whoa, any of you see the universe address in photo mode?
near schooner
yes and I hate it
ruins a good photo
I just wish it had an option to disable it when not needed
nocturne zephyr
sounds like an option we'll get pretty soon
crisp fern
yeah wtf i see a hide option there but no way to really hide it, lmao
near schooner
I am sure most people will ask for an option to turn it off
but worry not
if sean does not
modders will
nocturne zephyr
what if they gave an option to put the 1.03 hud back into photomode
crisp fern
lmfao who the fuck would think it's a good idea to fucking dox yourself like this. i mean okay i know it's a game but this is the virtual version of that
"oh yeah i just wanna take a nice shot and oh whats this i shared my location in the universe with everyone whoops"
near schooner
yeah .... like
gamer group: lets keep out base location secret to prevent annoying people from comming
HG: nah bro Multiplayer
send everyone
nocturne zephyr
it's just a tiny oversight
crisp fern
just, wow, this is the dumbest thing, it even looks last minute af
nocturne zephyr
that'll probably be fixed soon
crisp fern
oh yeah, for sure
nocturne zephyr
that is dumb
crisp fern
or at least, one hopes, lol
near schooner
yeah most people WANT to keep their best finds secret
crisp fern
or you're like me and you want to keep your entire corner of the 'verse secret
near schooner
@crisp fern where is that ?
cloud epoch
i put mosiacs over all my funny beacon name addresses
nocturne zephyr
give coords
jagged cape
alright.. had a little dinner break... time to jump back in
fickle plinth
Looks like hotfixes are inbound boiz
near schooner
I dont think units are that important anymore BTW....in the nexus I got like 60k
from 1 NPC
near schooner
patch notes:
removed beyond update
fickle plinth
Patch Notes:
Added 100% more Squidward
near schooner
nah bro I want more patrick
crisp fern
is it wrong of me to not really feel like this was worth calling their biggest update yet, only 'cause a significant portion of the frontend stuff feels like it's UI related? 🤔
near schooner
NEXT was way bigger
crisp fern
also the new base part construction anim looks more or less like how I'd have envisioned a remote construction anim to look
near schooner
in terms of content
this one was REALLY...VR and Multiplayer
so if you do neither its meh
me I might find it fun when my VR arrives
uncut harness
at least it brought a lot of QoL changes
mining seems a little less tedious, for some odd reason. didn't they tweak that?
near schooner
there are some changes that are good
not all of it is bad
but like sean himself said
its more quality of life
so it was small nit picky things sean wanted changed
crisp fern
hrrm, uh, anyone else here playing with a 1060 on latest drivers & know if it's alright?
crisp fern
getting this weird lining effect on distant terrain
indigo badge
How does practice learned words work?
crisp fern
but i'm not running latest drivers so not sure if that's related or not, but last time i tried the latest drivers the game stuttered like hell for me
near schooner
its VR artifacting @crisp fern I get red and blue lines everywhere
crisp fern
o_O
crisp fern
but, wha, me no VR on PC, lmao
near schooner
its like the chromatic abberation that NOBODY wanted
I know
I was getting it on my normal screen and I have a 1080
crisp fern
@indigo badge also not sure yet, haven't tried it
near schooner
again some stuff has been less than optimal
crisp fern
really? so this lining along the terrain shows regardless now i guess? 😩
near schooner
OH....my s-class ship
its wing animation
the wings dissapear
🤣
no mods in my folder
just its broken
naturally
crisp fern
sean pls
cloud epoch
file a ticket leon i already filed 3 others
near schooner
the dark horizontal lines I thought was just me using my 3 screens and stuff stretching
now I see its intended
😐
uncut harness
I crashed going into the nexus on an existing save - reset for BEYOND and haven't gone back yet, so I am unaware on that front; some animal discoveries, with the new proc-gen text, can have '%BIOME_MEAT%' or something like that; and I encountered a creature with a strange black rectangle behind its eyes, though that disappeared, I think
cloud epoch
nah u can get crazy amounts of the dark lines like that
i had like probably 15 stacked up in one spot
uncut harness
about all I experienced with glitching
ancient sand
@near schooner i have a feeling you didnt think the update was worth the wait
near schooner
see I really dont know if the change to vulkan was worth it
I hope they can fix the colored weird lines and strange anomalies
near schooner
@ancient sand I mean I have yet to get my VR in the mail....so I am waiting for that to make my final call
ancient sand
Well for non vr users
crisp fern
@cloud epoch i think that makes my tenth report today, lol
uncut harness
does anyone know if the new experimental patch rids the game of the annoying ability for VR users to kill players in The Anomaly?
near schooner
for non vr....I say it add some nifty feature but over all its was less than the hype
crisp fern
@uncut harness i think atm they're strictly doing the usual crash minimization run
near schooner
best way I can answer is to tell you what I love
ancient sand
Im still hoping people keep the game going with the logic stuff
Because people are making Circuit boards
uncut harness
I saw a vid over... somewhere... of a player abusing it, and man, you just come off terribly. don't be that guy, please
rough depot
How many new lush planet colors are there
uncut harness
he was shooting the vid to showcase the glitch... and then killed way more than a few players. yeah... we get it, you can kill them
near schooner
the new discovery menu was amazing....I love the direction they are going with logic and hope they build more on it.
the NEXUS is dope when it works
the walking NPC make the worlds feel more lively
SITTING OMG that was great
being able to tame animals is cool
and loved the interiors for the exo-crafts
ancient sand
I feel like after the bugs are fixed we can get a good look at the update as a whole
near schooner
so it was worth it....its just was not HUGE if your not doing VR
but relative to what SEAN said it was accurate
about 30%
that 30% was for single players too
uncut harness
I also think people were way too quick to pronounce beyond as 2.0 in the sense of it being one update to change everything. I think their meaning was this update, plus the many others, have changed so much that, by now, it is 2.0. not beyond being 2.0
near schooner
It could be that HG made a deal with PS4 or steam to get kickbacks from VR sales
which would make them good money
uncut harness
also... I dunno, VR is a great way to play the game when it works
it's pretty polished, all things considered
near schooner
well VR is only at 1% adoption among the Steam population and 4% for the PS4
so its rough
for vr games
ancient sand
Well if more games can be non vr, build up their game and then add vr it works better
Cause then they arent just going off of vr
Until I can feel and smell things in vr its not worth it
uncut harness
possibly. in any case, VR games need to be longer. these one hour experiences make people question if it was worth even getting a headset. games like NMS with this treatment excite VR players because it is practically unheard of
near schooner
I do think it was still kind of worth it though because I really do ♥ NMS
they made real poop instead of having a red rock ... that I thought was wonderful
uncut harness
so yeah I agree ig
serene holly
VR is also an emerging technology, so it will improve with time
uncut harness
Imagine patching VR into a multimillion dollar game so 1 million people can experience poop
oh I have a great story
ancient sand
Imagine if no mans sky had a team size of 400
serene holly
I think VR will be big in 15 years
ancient sand
Game would be epic with more people working on it
uncut harness
first planet in NMS VR, I threw creature bait for one little fella. then a bunch of his pals strolled up and went after it too. and then they all started to shit together, in the same general area. shitpocalypse
near schooner
the power management system does make some sense from a more realistic perspective
uncut harness
@ancient sand If it had a team size of 400 the entire project would be saturated with half baked ideas, mismatched art assets and probably microtransactions
also dunno if it's just me, but vr makes things hard to interact with sometimes
serene holly
A team size of 50 would be gucci
uncut harness
^
ancient sand
Imagine if you removed the consequences of team size and hello games had 400 members
Imagine how cool nms would be
near schooner
@uncut harness its getting used to it really
ancient sand
Once multiplayer and the community stuff starts to flourish the game will feel better
near schooner
one of the things that DID dissapoint was not adding the new races into the customization menu
uncut harness
well I mean that in the form of not even having the little menu to signify I can interact with stuff to come up
serene holly
What irks me about some of the people complaining is that they dont realize how hard it is to do game dev, especially multiplayer and with a small dev team
uncut harness
like those little ex-plutonium boxes
or trying to gaze at distant resource deposits to see what they are and it not throwing up what it is
crisp fern
oh jeez, the markers are really borked up
I don't know how to describe how they are, but they are, for sure
uncut harness
they're a little inconsistent somehow
near schooner
@serene holly just cause a team is small does not mean they are free from critique
serene holly
That's not what I was saying
uncut harness
also for some reason the traveller race option in the customization menu had its text endlessly roll for me
and additionally, one of the glove types rendered my left hand invisible
serene holly
I'm saying that people are being too harsh rn. There are a lot of bugs, they will fix
crisp fern
Like I left myself in a portaled to system in my creative save & the marker for the portal shows up large as if it's nearby or in focus or something, but gives basically no clear direction as to where it is
wut r u doing markers
near schooner
@serene holly well yeah.....most games....major game updates start off buggy at first
its a waiting game
serene holly
Yeah
near schooner
yeah some of my markers are screwy too
serene holly
Some of these bugs are edge cases that can't feasibly be caught in QA
near schooner
but others where just oopsies
like the one where if your mid way through the anamoly missions
you dont get to call the anamoly
or finish anything
crisp fern
oof
sullen pulsar
markers for buildings often don’t have label text for me
crisp fern
so i think i like most of the cockpit redesign except for the reflective panels bit
makes it impossible to read at certain angles relative to the local star
sullen pulsar
just the symbol for the building and distance, literally no explanation of what it is
crisp fern
remember to report the issue!
sullen pulsar
Yeah
The panels being reflective of light and having glare screwed with me a bit
When trying to read the different gauges
icy citrus
How do you tag things in the visor on pc?
serene holly
One thing that's really neat is that large animals cause the camera to shake when they get close
sullen pulsar
Yee
sullen pulsar
I’m really interested to see what all the different travelers in the nexus do
kindred wagon
how are the servers holding up?
I've crashed 3 times in a row in my first time in the nexus
sullen pulsar
also PLEASE give us Tethys’ head as a customization option
fringe notch
No issues my side benson
sullen pulsar
I wanna be da feesh
serene holly
I've only had frame drops once
sullen pulsar
Really specific stuff caused me to have slight frame drop on Xbox
Using terrain manipulator mid-air to dig something up while I was melee boosting crashed my game
other than the obvious bugs everyone’s getting its running much better than it did pre-Beyond for the most part
at least on xbone
serene holly
Yeah its much more stable for me on PC
sullen pulsar
ship controls are better horizontally and for turning, but going up and down is an absolute nightmare now
it’s so damn slow
next lagoon
How do you place custom markers
sullen pulsar
guess I can just use barrel rolling to turn horizontally the way I wanna go
On what platform? @next lagoon
I recommend goin to #nms-questions for questions like that tho
crisp fern
okay tbh you should be able to just pick up quicksilver items in creative w/o need for the currency like everything else
sullen pulsar
I hope the community events are good
calm owl
Did we always clip through NPCs? I feel like they were solid models in NEXT
sullen pulsar
I think that’s new
It’s helpful
Yeah I know immersion breaking but if they’re gonna be moving around now I don’t want them blocking me
calm owl
Very true
I absolutely love how alive Space Stations truly feel now
Like I thought they were proper hubs in NEXT but this is on a new level
sullen pulsar
Yup
There’s something comfy about the planetary outposts and other buildings now
They feel much more alive, like the space stations
near schooner
@crisp fern do you have vr?
near schooner
ah ok fair
icy citrus
WHAT
Takes that graphic hit, but I was very entertained - that being said, I'll still play normally most of the time
It's fun, but I can't handle how bad my screenshots look
cloud epoch
new experimental Update to Experimental Branch 15/08 Fix for crashes occurring in Nexus.
crisp fern
so uh, can you just not sit on any of the couches in the Anomaly or am i missing something
cloud epoch
are u trying to create a singularity or what leon gosh
crisp fern
oh huh, i didn't realize Beyond had opted me back into multiplayer and was over here poking around the Anomaly without another soul around and no issues, lol
placid igloo
near schooner
all those red green dots
those artifacts are EVERYwhere
its like old school 3d
and that is probably what kept making me sick
uncut harness
Were procedural buildings colored before?
cloud epoch
@near schooner the top of the visor has always had strong chromatic abberation like that
u can disable it in the menu
cloud epoch
video options > vignette and scanlines
which is funny cus im okay with the vignette and scanlines, i just wnat the aberattion gone
but it's a package deal i guess
near schooner
I did that but the multicolored lines...dots still exist
you can also clip through some things
that a tiny silo
XD
I walked right through it
crisp fern
i'm taking this opportunity to report all manner of old bugs that, for whatever reason, remain even in this version
uhh, anyone else happen to notice this:
viral bronze
yeah
crisp fern
Colors in lower left, not sure when those started showing up
cloud epoch
in beyond lol
crisp fern
lol
near schooner
look like refrence imagery
crisp fern
besides that tho, i only just noticed them despite not having seen them earlier while playing
near schooner
probably a mistake
sweet turtle
3xperimental
jagged cape
sooooo I found this rock that turned into an animal when I shot it, but I couldn't scan it
i hope that wasn't the final fauna i needed....
mighty rampart
@crisp fern yes I have it too, happens when I fire up camera mode
seems like a leftover debug mode
crisp fern
ye
mighty rampart
@jagged cape you cant scan them anyway, they're just sentient minerals
just mine them ded
crisp fern
reminds me, my ship clips through the top of the freighter hangar, lol
mighty rampart
@icy citrus
mighty rampart
there was one shuttle I saw on reddit and it actually looked nice
like a small hauler
icy citrus
near schooner
btw..... I dont think you can salvage crashed ships anymore
when you find one....you have to talk to an NPC and do stuff for them
crisp fern
Probably using some old launch height values or somesuch maybe
icy citrus
Just slap the hauler cab on it baby
crisp fern
if true that makes me angery
near schooner
same...had it not been so stuttery today
I would have tried the interaction to see
mighty rampart
I've never sent bug reports for a game before, feels really cool
jagged cape
I've got a racoon ring around my face from 4 hours of VR... i should take a break
crisp fern
wait so you can sit on some couches? 👀
mighty rampart
lmao @near schooner
@crisp fern yes, I think you can sit on nearly anything inside the space station, it seems to not work in outposts and the anomaly though
crisp fern
🤦
near schooner
on the one note....the white red spinning chairs....you still can sit on those
crisp fern
i couldn't find any couches i could sit on in the space station i was at, lol
mighty rampart
they increased the refiner speeds didn't they
I just did for about 300 rusted metal and it only took 2 mins instead of 12
near schooner
oh good
thats a miracle
Sean loosened a wait timer
@crisp fern you hear that .... there is hope
stoic rover
Vr performance is pretty 💩
mighty rampart
ok
near schooner
you know what else is shitty poop
stoic rover
Wut
near schooner
real poop
stoic rover
True
icy citrus
mighty rampart
@near schooner the display is still whack though, showed me 1 hour and 6 mins of time to refine just like it used to before
icy citrus
@shadow ether it may say salvaged data, you need salvaged tech modules, that you get from the buried tech places
Same thing the analyzer took in next
mighty rampart
are the buried techs bugged?
near schooner
ah you break my heart .... so then it might be a bug
mighty rampart
Lol main channel is so toxic rn jeez
icy citrus
Seems like they maybe
mighty rampart
Also it's cool that they don't require you to construct wiring with materials, it's all free
crisp fern
Aww yeah, you can still claim & repair crashed ships:
now if only you were only repairing the tech and not also slots 👀
near schooner
it let you do it...did you talk to npc first?
crisp fern
Nope, no NPC around to talk to
near schooner
or maybe 2 types of crashed ships?
crisp fern
Guessing there's at least 2 types then
crisp fern
Oh, this is no good though...It looks like you only have the option to swap it with your current ship, no longer add to collection
near schooner
oh what...you dont have a full freighter though do you?
crisp fern
so essentially if you're gonna grab one, you better be damn sure it's better than what you have
near schooner
or do you even have a freighter
crisp fern
I have a freighter, so that's not the issue here
near schooner
do you have 6 ships?
near schooner
cause if your at the max it used to say that anyway
crisp fern
Hmm, looks like I do, so my bad there. Playing Creative you lose track of how many ships you have really fast
near schooner
XD
crisp fern
The wonders of not having to grind
mighty rampart
I can't resize terrain manipulation?
crisp fern
@mighty rampart what platform? I'm able to right now from the looks of it
mighty rampart
PC
crisp fern
Hotkeys are R/T to increase/decrease now, think that changed
crisp fern
I did, only way I knew
mighty rampart
But T also turns the torch off on lmao
crisp fern
But I had to switch to terrain creation to get the prompt
For some reason they've kept it hidden there which is ???
crisp fern
Been that way since they added terrain manipulation I think, just never used it enough to think to report it, lol
Even with Next, which pushed one to use it more
mighty rampart
Also are you still getting prompts about the storm clearing?
jagged cape
Is it not possible to move while building in VR?
crisp fern
@mighty rampart uhh, not that I've noticed...?
mighty rampart
Yeah I don't get any prompt when the storm clears up
icy citrus
I'm out, I have done what I can in #nms-questions for now - goodnight all cya tomorrow
crisp fern
Heh, later!
fringe notch
Welp, done for the night. So far no bugs, good performance and Im on a older system. Almost everyone i know on older systems seem to be near bug free, save for rare crashes at nexus. I geniunely havent had any bugs myself yet.
crisp fern
I've had one crash so far and it was just trying to go to a crash site on a frozen planet, lmao
fringe notch
Rather impressed with the slight increase in diversisty of animal parts and just the balance tweaks. Some of the animals are really neat where i live now
Haha
One thing i do know, DONT alt tab much
Seems each alt tab really causes a lag issue
havent had it myself
crisp fern
I play windowed on PC primarily & had like no issues with that, tbh
near schooner
well other than the stutter when the update had just released its been smooth sailing other than some bugs in game
near schooner
old
small pier
Has anyone encountered new ship parts/ship types since release?
crisp fern
Also I located the crash site again after launching the game again and managed to reach it without a crash so I have no idea what caused the crash there...I'm guessing maybe it was a memory leak issue from having been running the game for an hour or two uninterrupted, maybe
small pier
I dont suppose you know where I can find screens?
fringe notch
a new engine nacelle, a new cargo pod and a new front
hrmm
not sure
I didnt take pics
I can next time im on

Im thirsty for more ship content

LOl
I cant blame you
Im just happy to have a herd of tapir sheep
I call them Neyts
Sorta adorable critters
meanwhile i ride my quadratiger
Its all really quite fun
New discoveries tab, its awesome. The animal descriptions and pictures are superb, as a surveyor by choice, its pretty well all i could ask for
crisp fern
Reminds me, we can't really keep tamed animals though, can we? 🤔
I mean I guess you can sort of keep them if you set down a base, sort of?
cloud epoch
i had a loyal base doggo in next lol
crisp fern
so am i the only one really confused by the planetary chart system thing, like on one hand it seems to want to encourage exploration via visiting waypoints and on the other hand screw that you can just buy them via nanites which everyone probably has a stupid amount of
cloud epoch
it's not superb lol
remote charm
oh that's interesting
to trade with ship pilots we actually have to find the pilots now
uncut harness
MULTI COLORED GRASS CONFIRMED
cloud epoch
its bascially just random singal booster from the station
like how is that super helpful?
do aliens still have to option to ask for directions?

Anyone able to mount creatures in vr?
I tammed a bunch but they just walk away and then I punch them to death trying to cuddle them

Must be rare
near schooner
ok so .... I am falling asleep at my desk...time to sleep I think LOL 👋 everybody
left escarp
you on pc?
uncut harness
Yes
left escarp
the game is actually looking a bit like vanilla
remote charm
yeah more like how I liked it
left escarp
I wonder why tey didn't talk about that in the patch notes
remote charm
surprises of course
calm owl
Kinda feels like a mixture of NEXT and vanilla in terms of aesthetics aye?
remote charm
going to see what my irradiated starting planet looks like
left escarp
Yeah
uncut harness
ok guys wtf this is so much better than next
remote charm
oh wrong one
this is actually my starting planet
that's the same planet from before
the trees are not much different but the vibe definitely is way different
even trying to adjust the cam for roughly the same lighting effect as the before picture and I get this
that looks flipping amazing for an irradiated planet with no filters
All I need is keybinding and I think I'm good for beyond
left escarp
Yup,thw game has certain feel now
And imaginae what they can do if they focus on exploration
remote charm
looking forward to that soon XD

I AM MILDLY IRATE

I'm never had a crash

That's real swell for ya

@uncut harness Try experimental, it crashes less for most https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/1643171537291464493/
royal scarab
then you'll have to wait for it to be pushed to PS4 stable ¯_(ツ)_/¯
uncut harness
Yeah I know
I'm just mildly irate that not even space appears to be stable enough to venture into
calm owl
I do wish some people weren't dismissing the update entirely because of bugs and crashes, it's such a regressive manner of thinking imo
dim spoke
Any fix for the mind arc yet? I just got back into playing and i crafted it for the mission and it says to go back to Artemis through station teleported? There’s no mission icon anywhere else than where the teleporter is. I don’t want to start a new save and go thru all the base building missions shit again

Disable ambient multiplayer

Nice experimental looks good
I've regained faith
Totally chilled out from all shit yesterday
summer wigeon
What shit?
uncut harness
The uh
calm owl
People lose faith too quickly ngl
uncut harness
Initial 2.03 ain't functioning too well buckaroo
Welp, I got video of the best bug I have ever seen in a game ever
calm owl
We're able to wait a whole year for an update but day 1 bugs and crashes make us lose hope immediately? 
that's no way to function, of course we should report those issues ASAP and make sure HG knows what they have to fix but to genuinely lose faith and dismiss the update is silly
LOL that video
uncut harness
@uncut harness bruh upgrade ur exosuit
If I were the game I would crash too
I didn't realize that could happen to large ships
12/10
calm owl
I believe a very similar bug existed in 1.0, near Trading Posts in particular
uncut harness
That’s a player ship too
Everything has day 1 bugs
I’ve been playing in vr so haven’t focused on suit
Except the release of a can of bug spray
Vr with what
Ps?
covert wing
Beyond feels much more stable than NEXT and AR to me.
covert wing
It's a mess atm but still not as screwed up as AR and NEXT were on release
uncut harness
Idk how
Like it's blurry, but I thought for sure they wouldn't be able to keep it at 90 FPS
It’s been buttery smooth for me
I played for like 3 hours bc I was hyped
And well it’s summer
Didn’t crash once
Didn’t even lag spike
covert wing
My old save crashes every five minutes or so. Started a new save, got one crash in three hours.
uncut harness
See it keeps crashing for me, but the lag spikes are gone so that's fun
covert wing
Framerate is so much better
uncut harness
Well xbox is locked at 60 so
I wouldn’t know
Ambient lighting is great, no idea what happened to lighting in buildings
No idea what happened to power in buildings either
viral yarrow
Everything looks much more vibrant.
uncut harness
Kinda
Yeah one of my old planets got hit with the vibrant pink and I love it
Most planets I visited just had more trees and stuff
viral yarrow
Powering up your usual base compartments brightens the fuck outta em.
covert wing
Did they create new flora assets or am I imagining things?
uncut harness
I saw a bigger change on my home planet in next
I saw a larger one in Visions
There was blue grass everywhere
Visions sorry not next
That’s the one
Yeah lol everyone forgets the mini updates'
I forgot the name
But space stations feel a lot more alive
And the nexus is really cool too
The Nexus actually feels like a hub
Did you see when nada denied having an old anomaly station
I haven't been able to talk to any of the NPCs aside from the crude workaround to speak to Nada
YEAH LOL
"Nothing's changed, Polo's just been fixing things"

I feel like the plot point about the pair of them being lonely is now kind of moot
Yeah I mean
The other the other things
What were they called
Now that they can have 32 anomalies running around plus 12 travellers
Plus the Synth Bot
Like Apollo and Gemini
And stuff
Kronos
They knew them
I didn't get that far
They said they were just looking for a place to stay a while
What’s Kronos
One of the guys
Oh
I think he's big chin guy
Anyway judging by his placement he's got something to do with cooking
Have you been able to ascertain if there's a way to get the new armor/traveller heads in the Anomaly
Ascertain lol
Haven’t heard that one since the dark ages
The quicksilver guy?
He sells some helmets
@uncut harness
uncut harness
@uncut harness Sorry for dying. Do you mean the helmets from the community events? Those aren’t new, haha
In the trailer it looked like playable characters were wearing new armour types and using some new traveller species
I was just wondering if perhaps you’d encountered a vendor or some dialogue that implied such wares could be purchased
uncut harness
anyone knows what i'm supposed to be doing?

i'm aiming at clouds and nothing happens
dusky depot
You gotta switch the visor into survey mode with the survey device installed and follow the signals until you find a gas cloud
You’ll know it’s tracking a gas cloud if the cloud icon at the bottom of the screen with the survey visor on is lit up
dusky depot
Has anyone really messed around with the cooking yet?
It’s actually pretty fun trying to figure out what combinations of ingredients make what
uncut harness
@dusky depot thank you
but how to I harness it? it doesn't make me build electrical stuff here
dusky depot
That I do not know unfortunately
uncut harness
oke thanks anyway for your help (:
dusky depot
No problem

so ground meat needs mordite and meat to be put into a food processor, but the processor doesn't take in mordite :/
winter radish
How do you switch between survey modes ?
icy citrus
Should say at the bottom when you have the visor up and the survey scanner installed
Right on dpad for Xbox
winter radish
I'm already in survey mode, I'm trying to switch between its modes
icy citrus
Should just be the same, or w.e your opposite would be, left on dpad for me
winter radish
forget it you don't understand
winter radish
As I've said I4m not trying to get into survey mode, i'm trying to find they key to switch between the modes
icy citrus
And as I said, I know what the key is for Xbox
When you are in your suit inventory, how do you switch between cargo types?
For me, I use those same controls to switch the visor mode
winter radish
they're already mapped to moving
icy citrus
Sorry, they are ignoring my question in the main chat - try out in #nms-questions - there is at least one pc player in there that has used it
winter radish
Answer found: you can't manually track a specific type of deposit. It only tracks the closest one.
mighty rampart
@tepid iris when you start scanning, it will only show the closest kind of deposit, you cannot specifically look for a deposit kind eg looking for electromagnetic field
your best bet is to before setting up a base, you install an exocraft and go about 500u distance away from each discovered deposit till you find the one you wanted
icy citrus
Or get wildly lucky like me and have one nearby😃
serene holly
I'm looking forward to playing later today
mighty rampart
yea that aint me I found the electromagnetic field way too far from my base
winter radish
I have three around my base, but not the types I'm looking for ^^
mighty rampart
I could connect it but ugh
mighty rampart
yea lmao
icy citrus
I kept waiting for it to say range reached or just unselect itself
mighty rampart
I hope they add a QoL fix to this by letting you scan for a particular deposit type
icy citrus
My qol wish for the base stuff is wires only seen in build mode
mighty rampart
though at the moment I want them to fix the proximity sensor being on all the time no matter what
icy citrus
Can't link that to a switch?
mighty rampart
I can but then its useless because I only want to use the proximity sensor
to turn my teleporter on only when I'm nearby
for the moment I am using the floor switch which is really huge lol I wish we can scale it
oh also scaling isnt working, the button isnt mapped to anything and there's no way to do so in settings
icy citrus
I have t done anything with the logic yet, just did the power to see what the problem was
mighty rampart
yea this is the only logic work I've done, to conserve power
I only have the lights on all the time but that is routed to a main switch too
winter radish
do hydroponic trays require power now ? I can't interact with any of them to refuel them
icy citrus
Yes
winter radish
I haven't seen a power node ?
smoky elbow
how do i tame animals? i gave them food they like.
@winter radish you unlock it.
i got mine through a mission
winter radish
It's a separate blueprint ?
smoky elbow
yeah like with the new tree system they added is where you get it.
you have to use the buried technology to unlock it
you
winter radish
I've already unlocked everything, except a few concrete building parts
smoky elbow
then it should be in the power section
icy citrus
I haven't used them myself. Just seen the people saying they need power
smoky elbow
everything needs power lol.
thorny sail
are there new exo ships? or did one trailer mislead me there?
icy citrus
I don't know if there are new exotics, but they have increased the type of parts normal ships can potentially have
winter radish
medium/large refiners don't
smoky elbow
ships are huge af now too
smoky elbow
i started a new game so im not all the way up to the new stuff. i want to tame an animal and ride it until i get the exocraft but idk how
icy citrus
They take specific bait
smoky elbow
yeah i gave them the bait they like but they only turned hapy
thorny sail
yeah shuttles now seem worth looking into now, since the size update they dont feel like just a pipe with a chair strapped ontop
icy citrus
When you scan them, it shows as the first listing in your visor, left hand side
Hmmm
Did you just give the creature pellets?
icy citrus
I haven't done it yet - check in screenshots, there is a person riding one. Might be able to help
@neat storm how did you get to ride?
That one
Dunno if they are on, may not answer
smoky elbow
i'll probably look up a video

FOOD_GEK_VEG has changed from the old ||GekMilk|| to ||Warm Proto-Milk||
And FOOD_BLOB_VEG from ||Sticky Honey|| to ||Sticky 'Honey'||. Otherwise the raw food items are the same as they were before. Lots of new cooked stuff.
winter radish
are spoiler tags necessary in this channel ?
serene holly
I hope GekMilk isnt milk from a Gek
violet narwhal
Possibly not... People may be coming here for answers to one question without really wanting to see answers to others (or stuff extracted from the files...).
It... was. But the wild proto-geks.

Humming Egg changed to Humming Sac.

I found a way to power small trays (place them in cuboid rooms) but not the big ones :/

I can't go online or find the nexus? anyone else?
violet narwhal
"Beacon" is now "Save Beacon". 
Hmm... ||I found my way to the stars and met these people, these Korvax, Gek, and Vy'keen. All with their own stories. But though their empires have fallen and their structures have crumbled into the earth, this base remains immaculate, free of dust and decay. It is as if it was made for me.|| a removed thing... Maybe never used... Suggests at one point you would have been given a base of some kind. Would have been after you've recruited the overseer and need to get the scientist.
smoky elbow
could have been for when there were only certain places you could claim as your base.
violet narwhal
A lot of changing of "its" to "their"...
Oh, looks like they may have finally fixed that reference to detritum.

how do you unlock the missions in the nexus?

Did the update change any existing ships aside from scale?

ps4 update > optimistic > blue screen 10 seconds after loading nexus > started new game
uncut harness
does anyone knows cooking recipes? been trying to mess around with them but no luck so far
icy citrus
Not yet, but I'm going to try and mess with that a bit today
crisp fern
won't be able to play/playtest at length until weekend, so close yet so far 😩
i hope they keep a bunch of the stuff powered, as it inadvertently does almost exactly what i hoped base maintenance would do.
that is, put a recurring cost on bases that makes one rethink investing in them
crisp fern
@violet narwhal that's probably from when you couldn't build bases anywhere & had to claim an existing one
Btw are autonomous mining units & gas harvesters still available or have new base technologies replaced them?
uncut harness
still avaliable
crisp fern
sweet, wonder if the AMUs work reliably now or remain bugged
uncut harness
the harvesters are still bugged
they still do the thing where you need to click E two times
uncut harness
generally speaking you there isn't automation still
the best you can do it try to find a material spot and place a mining unit + storing unit
but it's rng on the type of material, could be ocygen, dioxide etc and it automines 1k+ but not more than that
crisp fern
oh
real sapphire
found a ship with Launch Thruster System Recharge, Extremely useful i admit
uncut harness
like at that point i'd just better doing into a space station and buy 5k oxygen tbh
crisp fern
so there's not a thing to set certain products to be manufactured if you toss in the required resources?
uncut harness
doesn't seem possible
refining automation also doesn't seem possible since there are no wires
real sapphire
uncut harness
all in all it was 20% of the update you know, it is what it is
crisp fern
yeah, just not really what comes to mind when i think of things to automate in the game, lol
oh hey @timid mist, regarding the factory override stuff, does that mean you can sort of jump ahead in the tech trees that way?
timid mist
Nah, still need to do lower branches first
But it's a lot nicer
Lemme try and find another for a screenshot
crisp fern
bummer, I like the clearer view of tech unlocks but was thinking the only part I'd like now is a way to skip around it via exploration or somesuch
Still has the old problem of having to unlock somewhat unrelated/unwanted stuff in spots imo
timid mist
Most of them require unlocking required blueprints first.
bright tartan
are there 2-seater ?
real sapphire
ehm how do i interact with nada?
crisp fern
@timid mist yeah that's what i mean, i think there's potential for a better middle ground that lets you bounce around to the specifics you want with this approach, but that may come later with some prodding, more pressing issues atm though
real sapphire
prior artemis storyline
timid mist
I think you always just want something very specific tbh lol
This approach is nice, and makes sense
wind lichen
did the lore change at all
timid mist
Can see I have 2 units at the top left, can unlock anything using one of them. There's another tab for things like warp cells and atlas passes as well
The ones without locks are recipes I already had since this is an old save
Also @wind lichen there's some new stuff to take in with the new travellers on the nexus, haven't dug too deep yet though
One of them mentions being on Soleth Prime, which was a prerelease planet.
Kind of a cool callback.
wind lichen
oh ok
when i get home i'll look into it
crisp fern
@timid mist i think it makes most sense with the products from what i glanced at, some sense with tech, but less sense with some of the base parts is all.
like there's not really a great reason to my mind to require some piece before another piece, but i also need to review it all some more. i just know at a glance it still looked like they were requiring you to unlock stuff in an awkwardly arbitrary order imo.
timid mist
Oh for base parts sure it could be adjusted.
Altho it's nice that it's laid out rather than guesswork
I was only talking about the product stuff from manufacturing facilities tho
I think it makes the most sense with tech tho, like unlocking higher tiers of things or very useful products later on
crisp fern
gotcha, but yeah, I dig the clearer visualization
serene holly
My starter system has a mechanical planet, a hexagonal planet with a ring, and a tropical moon
uncut harness
this is so easy now, just farm salvaged and unlock everything
summer wigeon
So can unlock every blueprint with burried technologies?

dont the mechanical planets look like the things from the Arrival Movie
serene holly
They are lowkey unsettling
mighty rampart
So has anyone found out any complex food recipes?
summer wigeon
@uncut harness does amount for unlocking blueprints increase or 2 is max later
uncut harness
i don't know i unlocked all of them on next

@timid mist where did you access that screenshot with all the blueprints?
summer wigeon
Oh ok
timid mist
How did I take it or how did I get there?
dusty girder
ok i just wen to the space anomaly and my game crashed XD
timid mist
On pc?
dusty girder
yes
timid mist
Bug report if you can
summer wigeon
Ive noticed in discoveries, i have to turn in my founds all one by one, like flora fauna and rest, somehow is there a way to do all in one go?
summer wigeon
Had so many lol spent alot turning em all in😂
Ill hope they add this button lator then
jagged needle
You gave a screenshot just a few minutes ago talking about blueprints with atlas passes, etc. how do you access the blueprint tree?
jagged needle
Interesting. So you find any manufacturing facility and it gives the tree after interacting? Neat, but random since it’s locked behind the planetary charts. Thanks for the info!
timid mist
No problem! And yeah that's how it works

Man I'd really wish I could get an answer from a developer, now people are telling me none of the ships are different from NEXT, not even their variations but I'm seeing variations that were never in NEXT so I don't know anymore

@small pier I’ve definitely seen different ships so they’re out there

shouldn't a freighter have its own power source
you have to power freighter bases?

@tepid iris try summoning it even in same system
tepid iris
You can't connect wires anyway to connect the farming containers
jovial stag
as that worked in NEXT
tepid iris
In the same system as what?
crisp fern
oh no, oohnooo, they mucked up signal boosters. 😔
it's somehow now less functional than it's ever been, throwing out the old specific scans for a general scan and a drop pod scan
so planetary charts replace the specific scans, but since those charts seem to be RNG it's just ohnooo
why would you do that
i just don't even, swinging by cartographer to make sure i'm not missing the ability to purchase specific planetary charts
as;djfa;kwerasdfm.mx/zweiopru0
you can't buy specific charts it's just RNG agahsfdashdf
This is not an improvement in any way whatsoever

Yeah boosters were fine as is, tweak the finding the same thing

and still can't dismiss undesired markers 😩
icy citrus
Oh you don't want to locate the same thing twice,hows this then?

There are more than 4 new, what do you mean? Did I miss a part of the convo?
