Do you think we'll get a trailer for this update and a true patch note (like synthesis) or we'll get like only a Development Update post ?

@native frost the plot thickens

i wonder what this translates to
hybrid pendant

Ah more eggs just give you the final part of the quest again
Basically shows you a crashed ship

how do i set the clock forward?

can you send me a screen cap of the portal glyphs it gives you then?

So I simply turn off my steam

are abandoned freighters in space just a random thing now?

can you do anything with them

Unsure
zenith perch
There's a video on YouTube of someone with the ship

Don't care for all of this just for a ship though. Happy with my own. Just gonna watch and see how it goes.

@magic mesa

It's just a fleshy reskin with weird names and you have to keep it happy by regularly jumping systems?

how about thats hoot lol

No I want new planets
hybrid pendant
well ur gonna be disapointed
zenith perch
Volcanoes, actually nice looking planets, old colour scheme that I never got to experience.
Probably
hybrid pendant
u didnt got what u wanted
zenith perch
K
uneven oak
now that we got living ships, where are the living freighters
zenith perch
Where are the living nice colours there's the real question
Best update for me would be an in game version switcher but that's most likely just never going to happen
hybrid pendant
u can ask i guess
and ur gonna wait 2 months when they worked their ass off on this update
violet narwhal
@uncut harness x079F76B50d0 are your portal coordinates in that system
zenith perch
You act as if I'm entitled or somehow don't appreciate what HG are doing @hybrid pendant
Let people have different opinions
hybrid pendant
yeah soo be patient
that it
they know that people want that too
no need to ask it for the 9000 time
zenith perch
There's nothing wrong with wanting something
It's not like I hate the game. I don't. I'm just wanting more planet types and stuff to do involving them because I primarily explore.
hybrid pendant
yeah
mental socket
current space we have is boring
hybrid pendant
visions
mental socket
visions only touched colors
hybrid pendant
no it added mushroom biome
mental socket
and expanded the color palette by like... 10
spice gorge
So it says a planet in this system
that was marked
I guess I'll just keep landing on one then the next in this system
hybrid pendant
we got new biomes with visions exotic one
spice gorge
after AR
hybrid pendant
after next
mental socket
I just wanna know what we can do with the new space stuff. If we can't enter the abandoned freighters they are pretty useless
hybrid pendant
maybe its just there for now
and will have a use later
and its not just abandonned freighters
hybrid pendant
visions new biomes
zenith perch
I've got a grey grass planet that Beyond ruined by removing the red sky and making it green
About as unique as I'm going to get honestly at this point
zenith perch
Can they at least make nights look not blue
zenith perch
Pre NEXT NMS had gradient skies and bright colours
Now everything is muted and dull looking
hybrid pendant
huh?
subtle gorge
i disagree
since older skies didn't have colored lighting, they all pretty much looked the same color
subtle gorge
sunset color is bad
uncut harness
I like my new green grass yellow sky planet its xomfy
subtle gorge
yeah
uncut harness
but sunsets do seem to be a little less extravagant than they used too
hybrid pendant
i like those
zenith perch
Got this before Beyond but it's not really a true gradient it's just the sun moved in a certain place.

Anyone figured out what we do with the wrecked freighters in space

So these are new, the freighers? I haven't seen.

I got what I needed from a wrecked freighter on the ground tho - marked
hybrid pendant
but i bet they will have a purpose one the update is there
gloomy isle
Are we sure this isn't the full thing?
hybrid pendant
we dont know
spice gorge
A living metalloid
hybrid pendant
i cant see them adding freighter crashed in space without it having a purpose
gloomy isle
True. The bridge areas also have no collision
I was thinking how cool could be to land on them
spice gorge
zenith perch
Xaine's World is going to try this now apparently > And change the time on my PC?
cursive kernel
So are there different looking living ships
zenith perch
If only planets had skies as bright as that now
Well it's either a new race
Sentinels
spice gorge
That is a Living Metalloid
zenith perch
Or something else entirely
spice gorge
Space got more interesting
I am guessing that's not a ship we can have
but a being
a Space Whale of sorts
zenith perch
The hell is a metalloid
gloomy isle
@spice gorge do these appear when you get the pulse drive prompt?
spice gorge
I went to destination I was told to on a planet, and approacdhing station to go get materials from my base
zenith perch
The hell is a metalloid
It would be very interesting to see multi biome planets but that might not work if the engine can only generate a single biome per plant.
Thanks for sending messages in a weird order Discord 👌

that pushing the engine far ahead of its limit

@proud inlet how

Xaine's World is streaming it on YouTube
No I'm on an Xbox player it's experimental only for now

Are there more timers down the road in this questline?
hybrid pendant
dont know
proud inlet
Yeah
cloud epoch
4?
proud inlet
There's like 4
zenith perch
Currently Xaine's World is looking for coordinates on a planet so the timers can be skipped for now
dreamy cypress
lol yeah, probably my coordinates
zenith perch
No, coordinates on a planet
Something about biogenesis materials, Korvax Prime and other stuff
dreamy cypress
Oh
zenith perch
Solar Ray new technology
zenith perch
If he doesn't have the ship already he's building it
I've seen parts of it in another video
It has storage sacs
For whatever reason
It's really weird to fly around what's essentially a flesh covered ship
spice gorge
I had to do the coordinates thing to find the first real part of the quest
So no adverse reaction when you skip timer and then later restore PC time to normal?
zenith perch
There's the potential that Starbirth is the name of the update or a new quest for it a la Abyss and the Nautilus quest
So no adverse reaction when you skip timer and then later restore PC time to normal?
No idea.
proud inlet
@native frost was the first person to do the whole questline
zenith perch
I'm calling space update if my theory is correct
gloomy isle
@subtle gorge is that related to the quest or did you just find it?
proud inlet
Skipped multiple timers and never said anything about issues from it
zenith perch
Maybe ship customisation too
hybrid pendant
yup space update
subtle gorge
Quest I think
zenith perch
Wonder what else will be added
subtle gorge
Also my guess is this IS the space update
zenith perch
And updates after it
subtle gorge
There will be some more
gloomy isle
Honestly, I think this is the whole thing
Obviously with stuff we haven't noticed
Not that that's a bad thing
spice gorge
If you skip the timers, about how long is the quest, from the point where you encounter the first timer, that stem?
roughly
zenith perch
Nah it'll be a part they always do more @subtle gorge
Then again the timers do imply that this wasn't meant to be essentially sequence broken
Someone said the ship uses life support as fuel apparently
There's the potential that Starbirth is the name of the update or a new quest for it a la Abyss and the Nautilus quest
Ok wtf it did it again

this is what happens if u intereact with distress beacon first lol

what about datmining

The living ships are really cool but honestly I'm more excited about the other stuff that was discovered in the experimental branch

looks like you can land on certain asteroids, floating abandoned frieghters, more lovecraftian space deity stuff, and also we get to see the atlas do trippy stuff again it looks

even more when its unexpected and something u are like wtf is this

are the abandoned freighters proper space dungeons? or just tool around for a bit and leave
hybrid pendant
for the moment they are just models
umbral smelt
yeah
hybrid pendant
the new ship class is fuel by differents items than normal ones too
umbral smelt
I also wonder if there are any updates to planet generation too
glass flare
hm that's odd, i wonder what ability you get in exchange for the hassle of a new fuel currency
hybrid pendant
to fuel launch trusters its modite or oxygen in those organic ships

saw it on a twitter profile, looked like there are new way larger asteroids
let me find it

how do we get it i just got home
Experimental build on PC only currently

not the marker

@silent talon you need like 6 parts and each part requires ~1 day to mature
gloomy isle
Yeah. You can skip it but imo it kinda defeats the vibe of the quest
You're meant to be growing it
zenith perch
6 days though
gloomy isle
Should take time
elfin trail
Having trouble with the part where the egg tells you to find a specific place on a planet
zenith perch
Time gating is very boring
glass flare
to be fair reading what the quests are already defeated the vibe of doing them lol
gloomy isle
Plus you get to see some cool stuff every day
Tbf I don't know every step, I just know there's parts and they're time gated
stark walrus
Just found out I duplicated fragile neural stem by accident...
Enter ship, put stem in personal refiner, take it out, exit ship
fragile neural stem +1
ember fog
Do t set your time back if you skip the time cuz it will erase your progress. We found that out the hard way. LOL
gloomy isle
Gotta say, the coordinate system for the missions is pretty cool
Makes them more than just following the way point
silent talon
how do i get the first part?
zenith perch
found this too
The Stellar Intelligence looks weird
gloomy isle
So are these the same type of alien as the alien multitools?
cursive kernel
I don't think so
ember fog
Although those are biomechanical
crisp fern
oh, multiple living ships? 👀
cursive kernel
You can indeed get more if you have more eggs
magic mesa
I have 15 inactive eggs in storage
lusty hare
it would be awesome if we could get a living freighter too
gloomy isle
Living exosuit
lusty hare
so, do all the living ships look the same?
cursive kernel
Living base
magic mesa
Yes ^
cursive kernel
@lusty hare no
silent talon
wait how do i do the first step?
lusty hare
not much variation though
magic mesa
Is it random what type of ship you get when making 1?
lusty hare
I like the middle end one
gloomy isle
Little attachments on the front and back
lusty hare
so, when you get your ship, is it possible to save beforehand and reload to try and get the one you like?
gloomy isle
For something so rare, you don't need as much
magic mesa
I wish it didn't take so long
lusty hare
rare? doesnt everyone have an egg by now?
magic mesa
Most people do have eggs
cursive kernel
@uneven oak I think 5 cockpit parts. Top mid has "teeth"
gloomy isle
In the wild though, you're not going to see many unless you're always with other people
magic mesa
People have figured out how to duplicate eggs, and people have been randomly passing them out at the anomaly
They aren't too rare, now
lusty hare
I cant wait until it is live to get my ship... I'll have to ask how to go about it as soon as it is out of experimental
uneven oak
oh, top mid really has some different parts that the others lack
magic mesa
I wish I could just kill an animal and take it's neural stem instead of having to wait for the 1 I have in my freighter to mature
cursive kernel
I like the middle right one tbh
gloomy isle
I like the little antennae
uneven oak
wish I can find a purple one
grim swift
oh fuck yeah.
magic mesa
In the experimental branch
uneven oak
but if you look at top mid one, it's green/purple with orange nerves
magic mesa
A lot of people have eggs
crisp fern
i thought it sounded like you could stumble across these without needing an egg? 
lusty hare
again, is it possible to reload to try and get a different ship? Or does it happen like randomly?
uneven oak
how many steps does the quest have after the first 24 hour wait?
magic mesa
I was wondering the same thing
gloomy isle
Just realised- surely the ship trails means at least a minimum amount of ship customisation too? You can't have those without the interface/ station/ systems to do it
silent talon
im stuck
grim swift
Anyone seen the cockpit of the ship yet?
cursive kernel
crisp fern
can we take this opportunity to collectively tell HG to back off the timegates?
gloomy isle
What fuel does it take?
uneven oak
it's kinda sad that they have little maneuverability
magic mesa
We need 1000 manueverability
crisp fern
they're literally living ships
cursive kernel
Looks like they have the same inventory size no matter what
crisp fern
can you upgrade them?
magic mesa
No
magic mesa
It says
gloomy isle
I mean, animals in NMS aren't that nimble lol
magic mesa
"You may not augment living beings"
crisp fern
pfft
magic mesa
When you try
crisp fern
that's a copout or maybe we'll see cyborg ships 👀
gloomy isle
Maybe theres another way
silent talon
hey @magic mesa im at the point where ive seen 2 dialogue things and nothing new in awhile what do i do know?
cloud epoch
space whales aint nimble
magic mesa
Uh
grim swift
Did someone say SPACE WHALES?!
crisp fern
i want space squids now, make the squidships organic 👀
magic mesa
sPaCe WhAlEs
grim swift
Remember boys, bring your towel.
gloomy isle
This is going to be different in vr
gloomy isle
I remember someone found biological upgrade modules in the data today
hybrid pendant
procedural traeler did
but i bet if u datamine deeper u could find something interesting
gloomy isle
I'm more inclined to wait for tomorrow tbh
grim swift
this is unrelated from the eggs.
chilly drift
Someone found what are the new construction items ?
crisp fern
remember, say no to timegates
gloomy isle
I reckon there might be a ship customisation one in there
Look at the silhouette that's similar to the character customisation Station
lusty hare
so, first time going through the story, should i do Artemis or Atlas path first? also, can I do both?
lusty hare
okay, because I have been playing for like a week and have done pretty much everything BUT the main quests, so I figured I should get on that a bit
chilly drift
Oh yeah they're awesome in term of narrative 😄
especially the Artemis one ;p
They're also another main quest but I believe it triggers after the Artemis one
lusty hare
I have done a little bit - just got to the building the mind arc part, and visited... 2 atlas stations, I think
but then I got busy building bases and finding ships and all that
chilly drift
Yeah the only negative thing about those quest are the farming and multiple travel between planets
silent talon
so they also spawn in the wild?
chilly drift
Looks like yeah
kind of disappointed about that if we can buy them
Preferred it to be only obtainable with the egg quest
lusty hare
wait, what spawn in the wild? the new ships?
chilly drift
yep
lusty hare
oh wierd
I mean, I can understand seeing them in the wild, but not be obtainable that way
crisp fern
egg quest is icky with timegates so it's good you don't have to deal with that
(hopefully)
silent talon
anyone here in the esseintam galaxy i need in it
lusty hare
most I have heard is 24 hours... I assume real time.. that isnt too bad
crisp fern
that's a full day, that sucks
lusty hare
haha, impatient much?
crisp fern
no
i just waited a week for a bike for good real-life reasons like delivery time and assembly, there's no good reason for these timegates
gloomy isle
At least the quests show you cool stuff and ar kinda fun
uneven oak
I just want to know if there will be more waiting after the first step
lusty hare
the reason is storyline... I assume it takes time for the egg to hatch and stuff
crisp fern
that's not a good reason, that's arbitrary
lusty hare
do you know how long it takes an egg to hatch in real life? longer than a day
crisp fern
by that logic they could just make it take a full year
this isn't a real egg though
it doesn't have to abide real logic
lusty hare
but what is the point in making it an egg if it hatches instantly?
crisp fern
i'm not saying instantly, you're jumping from an extreme (24 hours) to the idea that I want it immediately (instantly)
uneven oak
oh boy you would hate ark dino taming/breeding system
lusty hare
besides, by the sound of it, you can cheat your way past the waiting anyway
glass flare
you can't cheat on console, we are stuck being gated
lusty hare
you cant change your console time?
lusty hare
I know that worked on xbox for fable, way back when
you dont HAVE to, though... you can just wait a day. haha
glass flare
i mean maybe, if you wanted to go to that trouble, but why make the user do that?
lusty hare
nobody is making anyone do anything
crisp fern
there is a viable compromise for this, where you still can wait but have in-game options to circumvent the wait...It's called basing it off of in-game time and having rest/wait options to advance that time
lusty hare
people are just impatient
crisp fern
the thing is, the payoff isn't even worth the timer
it's just another step in a mission chain, as I follow it
lusty hare
there is more to a game that just getting the end prizes, you know
glass flare
not impatient, we have limited time as working people. i don't want to spend 15 minutes of an hour play session traveling to another planet only to find out i have to wait another day
lusty hare
but it is real time hours... its not like it is making you play the game for 24 hours to get it
just play tomorrow, or next time you get the chance
crisp fern
That still sucks
When you've done a bunch of everything else in the game and it's the only fresh thing to go after, and to have it gradually meted out day after day
lusty hare
so, cheat or wait. up to you... if you cant cheat then play tomorrow
crisp fern
Or push them to reconsider a questionable design choice
lusty hare
the entitlement is hilarious
crisp fern
Oh fuck off
cursive kernel
I get the idea of not letting players rush through new content but at the same time, why timegate
glass flare
entitlement? just because we don't want to be treated like we're playing a mobile game doesn't mean we're entitled
lusty hare
maybe they want people to experience the game and the new stuff, not just get the new shiny asap and call it a day
crisp fern
It's a fucking game, for fuck's sake, how entitled is it to want to be able to work it into your schedule over it dictating how you play it
lusty hare
timegate because it makes sense for the story
cursive kernel
@lusty hare this game is like a collectithon without the satisfaction
lusty hare
if you play it that way, sure
it is an exploration and building game with lots of story and background, as far as i can see
vocal shoal
I wanna wait for the update to come out... BUT I CANT WAIT
cursive kernel
@vocal shoal one way or another, you'll have to wait
crisp fern
Get ready to wait Mustache_Man, because that's the bulk of the new mission chain
vocal shoal
Then i'll wait
crisp fern
NO
lusty hare
😭 hahaha
crisp fern
Tell them to stop telling us to wait for no apparent reason
Or at least set things on in-game time and let us rest through their silly timers
cursive kernel
Make it a long process to get, sure
crisp fern
Like games have done for years
cursive kernel
But don't make it have a timegate
crisp fern
There's zero point to real-time junk
hot wigeon
😔
lusty hare
wouldnt it be worse if it was ingame time and you had to actually play it for 24 hours
crisp fern
That's why you add a rest option
lusty hare
oh no, not having to play the game you like playing!
glass flare
if they want to stretch it out, make hard puzzles to solve. timegating is just arbitrary time padding to make the dribble of story last longer
crisp fern
It's not that complicated, games have been doing timers and things running on schedules on in-game time for years and they have the decency to offer rest/wait options to play at your pace
lusty hare
but there is no rest option and no need for it, so they made it real time like a lot of the other timers
cursive kernel
Not in an MMO setting though
lusty hare
but there is no rest option and no need for it, so they made it real time like a lot of the other timers
cursive kernel
Also my question is
lusty hare
'at your pace' meaning 'gimme now!'
crisp fern
(it is in fact complicated, but the point is there's a precedent for in-game activities based on in-game time)
glass flare
(there was a rest option pre-release)
crisp fern
At my pace meaning I still have to play through their silly hoops but I don't have to wait literal hours
cursive kernel
If the day night cycle in the game is 24 minutes on a planet, why do we get to wait 60x that
lusty hare
you guys are so sad
vocal shoal
crisp fern
As Solarparty said, literally all they use realtime timers for across the game is to artificially pad out the story missions
cursive kernel
@vocal shoal thank you
vocal shoal
np lol
lusty hare
real time for freighter missions to reset, real time for resources and other stuff to reset
crisp fern
They already have a mission chain in the game that is exactly this silly waiting game in the Base Computer Archives Mission and it's the lamest mission chain in the game because the payoff is 🤷♀️ narrative and some building parts
glass flare
i want some 24 hour day/night cycles... the "hurry up before your 20 minutes of daylight ends" is frustrating when I want to just explore in the daytime
cursive kernel
@glass flare I always land on planets when it's like just to be night
It's annoying
cloud epoch
i agree leon (p.s. this reply is from 30 minutes ago)
crisp fern
It's actually honestly sadder to let a game dictate when you're allowed to progress than to tell the game to fuck off trying to tell you when you can progress imo but okay
glass flare
@cursive kernel yeah that too
real sapphire
Hang on... bioship is in exp patch now?
crisp fern
yep
cloud epoch
curious if this is the whole update or just the first bits
cursive kernel
"Hey I wanna play the game"
"No."
"What do you mean no?"
"No."
silent talon
anyone got coords to one in euclid yet?
cloud epoch
cus if just a quest chain for ship and some mostly static space oddities that dont do much i dunno....
crisp fern
"No, I'm your parent now, you'll play at the allotted time and like it"
"I'm an adult"
"You're playing a game, you are my child"
lusty hare
like I said, if you dont like it, then cheat... cant cheat? find a way or get a PC... dont want to do that? then maybe just play the game how they made it and stop whining over something small and do something else for a few hours
cursive kernel
In warframe and building a railjack, I get it, f2p game and all but nms has no excuse for timegates
crisp fern
Guess what Ixtab, you wouldn't have half the stuff the game has now (including quality of life improvements) if people weren't outspoken 👀
