real sapphire
#

that's mine btw

mighty rampart
#

yeah I pulse jumped for 2.5 mins, no encounters at all

#

can anyone on PC experimental confirm?

icy citrus
#

That is everyones

#

We all go there

strange shuttle
#

@mighty rampart just get out of pulse change directions and go back in and just repeat that and u should get more encounters

mighty rampart
#

@strange shuttle are u on PC experimental?

strange shuttle
#

Oh sorry only registered the pc part

#

I’m not on experimental sorry

mighty rampart
#

alright

foggy jacinth
#

They definitely upped the number of storage augments you get from frigate missions.

real sapphire
#

i got well within 500 u from target thrice 😄

#

i feel bad from taking the souls...

foggy jacinth
#

Yeah, I did too.

fresh falcon
#

I've gotten encounters today and I'm on PC experimental

real sapphire
#

my first location is causing me quite a bit of trouble, its around opposite from portal

icy citrus
#

How many are you getting @foggy jacinth

foggy jacinth
#

@icy citrus encounters? Only traders so far today, but i haven't pulsed that much

icy citrus
#

I'm sorry - storage augments

foggy jacinth
#

Oh, augmets. At least 2 per day

icy citrus
#

Nice!

fresh falcon
#

@mighty rampart pretty sure yer just unlucky, I've been getting encounters on PC/experimental today

mighty rampart
#

today? ok then

fresh falcon
#

yep

mighty rampart
#

I noticed I stopped getting any since the update yesterday

fresh falcon
#

are you staying in only one system or changing systems?

real sapphire
#

ok, i think my bioship looks like some dragon on is head

mighty rampart
#

tried 4 so far

fresh falcon
#

then yeah probably just bad luck

mighty rampart
#

damn because I was still getting some encounter, like npc traders etc

#

2.5 mins of uninterrupted pulse jumping in each system

fresh falcon
#

if I don't get something in the first couple long pulses, I change systems, I don't spend alot of time in one system

#

I usually just go between the planets

mighty rampart
#

I went from one end of the system to another lol

real sapphire
mighty rampart
#

nice

fresh falcon
#

never tried that

icy citrus
#

Neat

real sapphire
#

tbh, its my desired ship

#

so
Sweet

glacial sphinx
#

How many times do i need to follow/find coords in this quest?

fresh falcon
#

I haven't seen one I didn't like so far

mighty rampart
#

@glacial sphinx all of them are

#

until the very end

glacial sphinx
#

Im going to find a blender

#

one moment.

real sapphire
#

@mighty rampart living scimitar

mighty rampart
#

hahaha

knotty urchin
#

So question- how do I upgrade? Or at get better storage slots on a living ship? Is that even possible?

mighty rampart
#

you cant add slots

#

but you can find large void eggs in space, as a space encounter

fresh falcon
#

if there is a way to add slots it hasn't been found yet

strange shuttle
#

Pulse around in space

mighty rampart
#

destroying it will drop an upgrade

#

can be anywhere from C to S class

knotty urchin
#

e.e So I need to get another void egg and hope it comes with max slots?

strange shuttle
#

No

mighty rampart
#

there's an update coming really soon that will let you "evolve" it to S class

#

all living ships have the same slots, 21/22

strange shuttle
#

They are s class

glacial sphinx
#

Where do i get pungeum

plucky cargo
#

Kill Sentinels

fresh falcon
#

yeah if yer on experimental you can evolve the upgrades using nanites

knotty urchin
#

Swear I saw some one's video where it has max slots. Guess that was on experimental.

icy citrus
#

Or edited

fresh falcon
#

that was probably someone who used save editor

icy citrus
#

I won't be surprised if it happens, but it hasn't yet

mighty rampart
#

yeah they'll probably give you a unique expensive way to add slots

icy citrus
#

I hope it is eating other ships

astral karma
#

oh my god

mighty rampart
#

probably after they add more weapon types 👀

fresh falcon
#

I'm kinda hoping that if you use the ship enough it will naturally grow

astral karma
#

I would love that

mighty rampart
#

nah it should be by giving it anomalous tarts

astral karma
#

just chomping other ships

mighty rampart
#

and other food

#

feed the ship and it grows more sacs

fresh falcon
#

it is a living being after all

glacial sphinx
#

@mighty rampart so all the craft + waiting parts are coord based?

mighty rampart
#

yes, the later ones too

fresh falcon
#

of course if you haven't already done it, make sure to move all the tech to the organ chamber so you aren't wasting storage sacs

foggy jacinth
#

@glacial sphinx You can buy pugneum at some space stations

steel patio
#

How do you get started on the living ship quest?

mighty rampart
#

get a "void egg" from the quicksilver shop in the space anomaly

steel patio
#

Cool, thanks!

real sapphire
astral karma
#

@real sapphire how would you feel if I said Living Ships were just the final form of Dave?

real sapphire
#

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

astral karma
#

LMFAO

mighty rampart
#

Dave is this how you come back to us?

real sapphire
#

i will give it a role of BLOB KILLER!

astral karma
#

#BLOBICIDE WHEN

real sapphire
#

whenever i find a blob planet

#

anyway, thinking of its name now

astral karma
#

Daveolution

real sapphire
#

it won't be english-sounding btw, just some weird name

#

to fit the alien theme

foggy jacinth
#

@molten cargo It's looking for a mega-exotic planet, with a strange biome, like Doomed Jade, Frozen Anomaly, [redacted] or Ultramarine.

molten cargo
#

@foggy jacinth Thank you! I spent a few days getting my hyperdrive to indium. Is there a specific color star I should jump to? Or do I just go and pray?

blazing hemlock
#

wait do i have to go to the euclid galaxy to do the portal thing for the living ship

uncut harness
#

hey, does anyone know if the color of the star system affects spawn rates for the new anomalies?

foggy jacinth
#

@molten cargo The mother ship should have given you a system to go to. Check your galactic map, it'll be a green icon, I think.

#

@uncut harness That info is being collated, but we don't think so.

mighty rampart
#

FINALLY got a space encounter

#

Guess I really was just unlucky lol wow

molten cargo
#

@foggy jacinth That's the thing! I'm not seeing the icon anywhere. So I'm just trying to find it on my own

foggy jacinth
#

There is a bug where the icon doesn't show up.

molten cargo
#

Gotcha. I'll just jump around until I find one of those exotic planets then.

foggy jacinth
#

@molten cargo Or wait for the next patch, which will hopefully fix it. The only way to see if you have the correct planet is to fly into atmo, and see if you get a message about looking for coordinates in your lower right hand screen spot.

blazing hemlock
#

ow nobody answerd

molten cargo
#

@foggy jacinth I'm determinded to find it >=D Apparently red systems can spawn one of those. So Red stars, here I come, thank you for the replies. This community has been pretty endearing so far.

#

@blazing hemlock I have no idea XD as I'm just starting it myself and my knowledge on the game is next to nil

foggy jacinth
#

Any system can have a mega-exotic, but they are more common in Red systems.

blazing hemlock
#

hm

foggy jacinth
#

@blazing hemlock Yes, you have to be in Euclid for the Portal part. Sorry, I ddin't see you question

blazing hemlock
#

abselute pain but its fine thanks for the big brain

deft falcon
#

Im sort of stuck on the finding the fallen traveler part, the coordinates keep changing and i think im blind cuz i cant find the little grave at all. Any tip on how i could narrow it down better?

uncut harness
#

what the hell did this come from

#

it highkey spooked me

foggy jacinth
#

@deft falcon The coordinates change every few seconds. Kinda take an average, and get close. Land. It'll appear as an unknown building on your visor, but you're looking for an Ancient Plaque, the ones that look like monoliths, but are a bit smaller and don't have the 3 knowledge stones. It might take some running around, or exploring a bit in an exocraft. There is also a video in the pinned messages that explains how the coordinates work. Or, use your photo mode to look around.

deft falcon
#

So even the graves will appear as unknown building good

real sapphire
#

no

#

it will show as nms but blue in colour while you scan around

molten cargo
#

@foggy jacinth Found a [REDACTED] Planet on my third jump. Time to see if the quest updates

deft falcon
#

Do i need scan upgrades on at all?

foggy jacinth
#

no, but they do increase your scan range, so they help.

#

@deft falcon If you're new enough to not have scan upgrades, do you have your glyphs? The living ship quest can't be finished without glyphs.

molten cargo
#

RIP, no update. Next star it is.

foggy jacinth
#

I am going to use a shitton of gold looking for upgrades....

deft falcon
#

I worked around the glyph thingy with a friend that has the glyphs and the nrw anomaly warp to friend feature

foggy jacinth
#

That's new enough I that I don't know if that will work for STarbirth.

deft falcon
#

Well it got me to the planet without using the portal

icy citrus
#

Clever

real sapphire
#

hmm i can use any ships for encounter with eggs in space?

foggy jacinth
#

We think it only works if you're flying a living ship

real sapphire
ivory crown
#

you need to be pulsing on the living ship as far as we know

real sapphire
#

alright

ivory crown
#

prepare to use a lot of gold and silver for the upgrades

real sapphire
#

i have a gold and silver mind around

#

so i can say it should be sustainable 🙂

#

mine*

ivory crown
#

yeah but warping back's always a fuss to deal with, pack up at least one full stack of gold

real sapphire
#

alright, thanks

brave crow
#

@foggy jacinth right i got 2 questions
1: should i turn my internet off now then do todays QS mission then do the time skips for the egg mission or keep it on untill i got the egg?
2: Should i keep NMS running when i set the clock foward or close it?

real sapphire
#

found the first void egg

foggy jacinth
#

I'd keep your time set normally, and your internet on, 'til you get the egg. Then I"d close NMS, turn off your internet, and set your clock back a week or so. Keep the internet off until the Egg is done. Then close NMS again, and reset your clock/turn on the internet.

brave crow
#

right

#

so

#

lemme get this in a list
1: get egg
2: close NMS and turn off internet and set clock back a week
3: wait untill egg is done (how long is that?)
4: turn clock back and turn internet back on
5: boom living ship?

silk bramble
#

does anyone have a list of glyph names?

icy citrus
#

In the pins

foggy jacinth
#

@silk bramble Check the pins of this channel.

silk bramble
#

thx

icy citrus
#

Some awesome person hooked us up

#

@brave crow sorta

silk bramble
#

i searched the chat but not pins 😛 thx anyway

icy citrus
#

You will be saving and exiting to move time ahead for the timegates that occur

foggy jacinth
#

@brave crow Almost.
3. Wait 'til egg is done, which will give you the living ship. There are 4-5 time gates, all about a day long.
4. 4: turn clock back and turn internet back on
5. You're done.

#

On my PS4, just turning the internet back on, and setting the clock back to auto was enough.

brave crow
#

so can i skip those gates?

#

like can i turn ahead to skip the gates?

foggy jacinth
#

Yeah, turning off the internet/setting back the clock is specifically to skip the gates. Get a gate, set your time forward a day, get to the next gate, set your clock forward again.

brave crow
#

ahh so

#

set back a week, then set back a day every gate untill done

#

this is mega confusing lol

foggy jacinth
#

Or, just leave your clock/internet on, and do the missions as they are allowed. This is only if you don't want to wait between each step.

brave crow
#

doesnt that mean waiting 5 days?

foggy jacinth
#

Yeah.

brave crow
#

yeah ok right

#

ill do the skips

real sapphire
#

hmm... i try to summarize via linking each step
Turn off internet > Proceed to the story > gather and craft required items > set your time forward > complete > proceed to next step > gather and craft required items > set your time forward > complete > etc....

#

(i think i made it more confusing..)

brave crow
#

not rlly

#

ima go look over all of this again and figure it all out

#

but first, time to take out some hazardous floura

real sapphire
#

for daily QS mission? 🙂

brave crow
#

mhm

uncut hound
ivory crown
#

those usually drop some random trade good that says it's a bio horror of some sort. I keep them in ship inventory to keep my ship company while I'm away

uncut hound
#

heheh yeah it did too

foggy jacinth
#

@weak pawn Buy a void egg. Void eggs can be purchased from the Quicksilver Shop on the Anomaly for 3200 QS.
Keep the egg in your inventory, and go out to space. Start pulse jumping in any direction. Jump for a solid minute or two, until you get a scanning sound and notice a message saying "anomaly detected, exit pulse to examine" and your starship communicator will light up.

real sapphire
#

thinkingIntensifies no encounter after a few minutes

uncut harness
ivory crown
#

all living ships are generic

#

we don't have as many diversity with overall shape of the ship

uncut harness
#

Fair point lmao

glass flare
#

which is why Sean's recent statement that "everything in the game is procedural" was a bit disingenuous

#

the newer stuff certainly isn't as procedural as the older stuff

ivory crown
#

I'm sure the living ships are procedual, tied to the seed of the system or something

#

but the fact that we don't get to choose where we find it kinda makes it meaningless

cloud epoch
#

"procedural selected from a small bin of parts"

uncut harness
#

See

#

What I'm doing

#

Is setting up a portal right next to the portal where you come out

#

And teleporting each time to a different system to see what the ship is like there

#

7 billion IQ

uncut hound
#

Hum, are teh broken frighters encounters useful for anything except screenshots ?

foggy jacinth
#

Not that we've found, @uncut hound Hopefully in an update.

uncut hound
#

:/

brave crow
#

right

#

i just got the egg

ivory crown
#

I would love to see a new feature in the future where you can set a "fuck off" signal toggle on your ship to prevent random trader encounters

brave crow
#

how do i start the mission?

ivory crown
#

@brave crow pulse

brave crow
#

also should i close NMS now and turn my internet off?

ivory crown
#

you do it when you see the timer

brave crow
#

so not now?

#

i aint started it yet i just saved in the anomoly

#

well auto saved

#

so now ive auto saved, should i close NMS and turn my internet off and set it a week back?

#

then start it?

foggy jacinth
#

I'd set your clock back now, @brave crow

brave crow
#

ight ill go close NMS and turn my internet off

#

is auto saving ok? (getting in and out my ship)

#

or should i manyal

#

*manual

foggy jacinth
#

Autosaving is fine, I think. I certainly did it.

brave crow
#

ight

wraith nimbus
#

@uncut harness yours is the first I've seen with a horn

foggy jacinth
#

Also, create a backup of your save first, just in case.

brave crow
#

how

#

ive done an auto, should i do a manual?

foggy jacinth
#

To create a back up of your save, quit NMS. Go to Settings / Application Saved Data management and choose a USB drive or the cloud.

brave crow
#

ima just manual save for now

#

seems the best option

ivory crown
#

backup once a while is good, but offline itself doesn't break anything

#

it does mess with the plant growth timers a bit, but you can replant those

brave crow
#

oh ok

#

right

#

turn my internet off

#

then set back the clock a week

#

do i untick the "connect to the internet" button?

foggy jacinth
#

@ivory crown plant growth and mines, but it's always good to have a backup, that isn't in-game. In fact, I have this saved to post every once in a while:
♦️ ♦️ PERIODIC REMINDER: Save your game files somewhere off your gaming rig! To the cloud, to a USB stick etc. (Note: XB1 doens't allow USB saves. 😦 ) ♦️ ♦️

ivory crown
#

well if your device is disconnected it doesn't matter

covert wing
#

Oh okay, guess I'll just wait another 24 hours! Again!!!! Awesome haha 😂

brave crow
#

just skip it

foggy jacinth
#

Yesterday, someone lost their save completely. It's always good to have an off-line backup.

brave crow
#

i think ill be fine

ivory crown
#

yeah backup is good, but the clockwork really isn't a special case

brave crow
#

right just tested it, it wont lemme go to the playstation store

#

so im think im good

#

now, where is the clock...

#

right im in set manually

#

@foggy jacinth what date should i set it?

spice gorge
#

I’ve decided I want a different Living Ship - mine has no “middle wings”

brave crow
#

7 - 22

#

a week back

#

20 - 5

#

15

#

15th

#

ight

foggy jacinth
#

@brave crow I set mine back a week.

violet narwhal
brave crow
#

i just did now

#

my ps4 is on the 15th

glad tartan
#

I bricked my save when getting a new ship in the same system, backups save your sanity

brave crow
#

of the 2nd

ivory crown
#

@glad tartan savefile bricking is something else

brave crow
#

uhh

inland patio
#

So @spice gorge it’s off to nmsseeds you go 😉

brave crow
#

oh i see

violet narwhal
#

Manual save regularly too, that gives you a way to easily get back to a good state without messing with files or anything.

brave crow
#

no mans sky said i last played on the 15th cuz i set it pack

#

*set it back

#

same time and everything

ivory crown
#

mods can we unpin "second living ship breaks the game" and pin that instead

brave crow
#

seems good

glad tartan
#

Fair enough, I broke my game tho, it was all fucky around the living ship

brave crow
#

im so mega hyped to finally get a living ship

glad tartan
#

It's great, just you know, good luck with upgrades

brave crow
#

yep

#

right

#

should i start pulsing now im set back?

ivory crown
#

yeah

lusty hare
#

so... nobody really -should- even have the living ship yet, right? like, without changing system time and stuff

hot wigeon
#

i’m the only one with a living ship in the anomoyl😎

brave crow
#

right im pulsing rn

ivory crown
#

no, all living ships are clockworked

lusty hare
#

I saw 4 of them in the anomaly at once when I was there yesterday

ivory crown
#

but "legit" living ships will be a thing this weekend

prime spade
#

Or save editted. The latest update of goatfungus' save editor added living ships to the ship list

brave crow
#

hmmm

#

right

#

i need indium drive

#

frick

hot wigeon
#

wait so you can’t get them without the time skips

#

?

fossil hearth
#

o,o Holy butts the history to this game is intersting

#

Just found out about the Korvax in relation to the Gek D:

mighty rampart
#

@hot wigeon they mean the ships we are getting werent done legitimately

#

skipping time and all

hot wigeon
#

all of it or just the beginning @fossil hearth

prime spade
#

It's a very deep rabbit hole Glitch 😉

hot wigeon
#

nahh

inland patio
#

Yeah @lusty hare 3 or 4 timed items times 26hour timers = 2-3 days from now

brave crow
#

right

#

26 hours?

hot wigeon
#

i time traveler irl to get my living ship

fossil hearth
#

Well, so far the Korvax, went and modified the Gek o,o

brave crow
#

A

#

BLACK HOLE

#

E

fossil hearth
#

That's where I am so far xD

small barn
#

ok so ive been on this egg mission for a while, and how far exactly do i need to warp?

hot wigeon
#

it’s pretty sad that the gek couldn’t change their ways unless they were biologically altered by the korvax /:

devout cloud
#

@small barn just go through the portal

prime spade
#

@small barn Get the egg, have it in your inventory, select the 'Starbirth' quest in your log, hit your PULSE DRIVE (not warp drive), and just cruise, shouldn't take more than 20-30 seconds for something to happen.

fossil hearth
#

They could have in time.... but they Korvax in any event went and sped up the process

#

At least I suppose o,O

lusty hare
#

I dont mind the wait that much, but my mission glitched so badly that I lost a lot of progress time.... I did the timeskip thing to make up for that loss, but I dont really want to go too far ahead and get the ship before I am supposed to have it

devout cloud
#

Ooh oops he’s on the first egg... lol... yeah just pulse

small barn
#

sorry, not what i meant, i mean im on like the last one and it says that i have to find it by unconventional travel, and ive been following the mission line with no end in sight

fossil hearth
#

the*

small barn
#

where is the portal?

hot wigeon
#

they’re should be an added race🤷‍♂️

prime spade
#

Oh, i dunno then havn't reached that step of the quest

devout cloud
#

@small barn ohh then what I said before. Use a portal

foggy jacinth
#

@small barn Your egg says something like The HUnter, right? Unconventional travel = a portal, and that's an address. Check the pins of this channel for a key.

devout cloud
#

They give u hints on what to select for glyphs

small barn
#

oh

#

i get it now

#

rip to all my wasted warp cells

hot wigeon
#

they could definitely have a new species come in with connection to the living ship

devout cloud
#

Or just get the glyphs from someone on here... that’s what I did

prime spade
#

@hot wigeon If I understand the story thus far in the egg quest chain right ||they sort of are a new race, created by the Korvax as an experiment... well created a long time ago but the ships are a race unto themselves, they just don't fit the conventional humanoid form or scale.||

mighty rampart
#

@prime spade ||they're not a new race, but another variant of a ship by combining metal with flesh, which gained sentience||

#

||the sentience being literally the echoes of dead entities||

#

wait we're in nms-spoilers

#

no need to use these

lusty hare
#

new sentient being = new race

mighty rampart
#

that's like saying if I kill a dude and put his consciousness in a cyborg, I made a new human race

prime spade
#

I dunno, you have 'spoilers' like '2 year old storyline content spoilers' and then you have 'Literally happening today content', I always give benefit of the doubt if it's brand spanking new, some people may be here to discuss older revelations, like glitchgirl here ;p

hot wigeon
#

@prime spade ||Good way of putting it, but other than being ships they won’t have much connection to the lore. they could’ve made a new species come to the the main galaxies from the depths of a random galaxy far out. They could’ve tried to wage war over the other three species which creates unification from the 3 main species and out their disagreements aside. the sentinels malfunction from the aging simulation and fall back into retreat. There’s lore behind the gruesome ways they turned their own into ships and makes us feel sympathetic for the ships and that’s why we help them and care for them. (all my opinion||

mighty rampart
#

but aside from that, what Ryu said is spot on, the main connection of the living ship is with the ancient korvax scientists in their homewold, and these experiments went horribly wrong when it came to giving it the souls

lusty hare
#

are the korvax a race? because the new ships are just as much a race as them

mighty rampart
#

korvax are a race because they arent "made" from an other race

#

they existed on their own

#

these ships are a construct by the korvax

#

that do not have sentience of their own

lusty hare
#

I may be missing some lore here, but the Korvax were created too

mighty rampart
#

but rather are the echoes of long dead travellers

hot wigeon
#

What do you guys think about my idea🤨

mighty rampart
#

not much because its too predictable and boring imo

lusty hare
#

I mean, I dont think there really is a right or wrong answer here... it is totally a matter of opinion

prime spade
#

I've never been too clear on that. If I'm remembering right, doesn't the monument/ruins lore seems to suggests the Korvax weren't always machines, but augmented and uploaded themselves over time at a much earlier point in the timeline, like, vastly distant past.

blazing hemlock
#

finally got the living ship

fossil hearth
#

Yep the Korvax shed their bodies, to become share a conciouseness

uncut harness
#

There’s a piece of lore that says the ATLAS created korvax based on earlier versions of itself... don’t know how relevant that is, but it’s cool

fossil hearth
#

consciousness even

uncut harness
#

It makes sense too

fossil hearth
#

Well bleh, time to shower and get ready for work :x

mighty rampart
#

the Atlas created the 3 races to model conflict scenarios

#

among other species

#

there was once a great species before the 3, the Atlas removed these species

fossil hearth
#

On that note, Ive not seen anything about that.. so I'll be tuning out for this bit xD

ivory crown
#

curiosity, greed, and... I forgot what vykeen was

uncut harness
#

Yea, but somewhere near that same log, it directly states the korvax were based on earlier versions of the atlas, I think

mighty rampart
#

wrath?

#

the Atlas made beings to worship itself in a sense

uncut harness
#

so i just realized, im probably late to this, but using blackholes while using
the living ship doesn't break any "technology"

#

Self mythicization

#

Yep

mighty rampart
#

found the text that directly states the korvax were modelled after the Atlas

Oh, also, am I totally mis-reading it. But there IS meant to have been a now deleted 4th race right?

Telamon mentions ATLAS erased a race and expunged all records.

The freighter wrecks, many of them were an exodus fleet from an earlier era. Their records are written in a different style to the 3 races (Their crews talk of concepts like love, faith, genetics. Found the travellers scarey and weird, and also mention having an emperor or king ruling them, and formed some sort've council between them and the 3 races).

Given the original simulation was for predictive modelling on behalf of it's creators, it doesn't seem like a stretch that the expunged race was an analogue of ATLAS's creators.

artificial intelligence partially modelled after earlier forms of [ATLAS] destroyed/enslaved

uncut harness
#

The game uses the word humanity

#

So it’s incredibly likely a form of humanity existed

mighty rampart
#

uncut harness
#

And yeah that’s the log I was talking about

mighty rampart
#

that's the main theory on what the precursor species were

strong drift
#

okay, this is really annoying...I'm on the Cracking Void Egg, and it is not showing me at all where to go

prime spade
#

Yeah I've always interpretted that ATLAS creators were human, but there is relatively little direct evidence to suppor it, just lots of circumstantial evidence

uncut harness
#

I mean yeah, you're not wrong. It can't speak of something it doesn't know about.

strong drift
#

anyone have any thoughts on how to reset this thing?

mighty rampart
#

@prime spade if we were to go by the ARG, we humans created the ATLAS

prime spade
#

The ARG, cool as it was to participate in, feels like it doesn't mesh that well with the actual universe and setting of NMS itself :p

mighty rampart
#

@strong drift what is the description on the cracking void egg? what all "organs" do you have so far

strong drift
#

I have the stem, shell, heart

uncut harness
#

well that's only if you think WTverse is the actual birth universe of the atlas

mighty rampart
#

@prime spade some of the parts early on, do mesh
especially the terms used such as "Echo" "Myriad"

strong drift
#

"one minute a world of grass, the next a world of bizarre fungal growths"

mighty rampart
#

@strong drift that's a calcishroom planet

#

it will say "fungal" "sporal" or something similar, when scanned from space

uncut harness
#

the way both the arg and game speak of a continuous universe in which one universe makes a sim and then another, and then factor in the travellers already existing even though there's no black hole killing the waking titan universe, it's always seemed to me that it's just another atlas sim, with another version of simulated humanity

prime spade
#

True. I mean Telamon punches the forth wall very firmly to assert that it's simulations all the way down. But seems like a lazy out that the NMS universe takes place in a sub-universe of the digital universe we see in the ARG.

prime spade
#

My main standing questions about NMS's universe related to 'the abyss', the undersea ruins tales I'm not sure how we're meant to have understood or interpretted them into the bigger framework, and what was the jagged terror in the sky survivor spoke of in his logs that drove the rest of the crew mad?

strong drift
#

@mighty rampart

prime spade
#

Pouts
I really wanted to get an ATLAS pass for a keepsake, having been active in NMS like forever and really into the lore, but wasn't one of the lucky ones 😦

uncut harness
#

well the abyss update, which added the abyss questline, also added a piece of lore that I think ties together two plot elements and makes the abyss origin more obvious

mighty rampart
#

@strong drift then idk, maybe warp a couple times to make it point out the system again

strong drift
#

got it, yeah, I've tried that...UGH.

thanks for the attempt to help though

something people seldom speak about: sunken ruins. they have their own lore, and it's about a dude finding a marble of some sort and going insane. it's crazy, and weird, and I love it

he goes all out with the adjectives but becomes obsessed as time goes on. when he finds a crimson diffusion inside of it, though, he starts to hate it, and casts it away. but then he finds it again, and laments the way he treated it

prime spade
#

@uncut harness I couldn't help but wonder if the marble story is meant to be read in allegory. It stood out to me the one section:

I couldn't bear to look at it. After all I've done for it, it lets me down like this? Get out! Broken, awful, stupid -```

'Broken, Awful, and Stupid' are coloured as if translated from Korvax, Gek and Vykeen 
 language respectively. As was some sort've commentary from the narrator.
uncut harness
#

I think it's supposed to be a metaphor for the mirrored universes. the crimson diffusion is the atlas, obviously, and the diffusion is the atlas' death showing over time that it's not a perfect universe

#

the narrator can't bear that realization

mighty rampart
#

I still dont understand base archives mission lore

uncut harness
#

since that was in the abyss update, I think the abyss somehow relates to the atlas' death

mighty rampart
#

on one hand it sounds like our traveller in its previous iteration

uncut harness
#

probably anger, manifesting itself into the sunken horrors

mighty rampart
#

then it seems like someone else instead

#

maybe the Abyss is the duplicate the Atlas deleted

The world of glass?

Glass seems to be a backup protocol where the Sentinels are archiving everything, souls, echos or whatever you call them archived to glass are essentially trapped there.

Except a previous itteration apparently got backed up there and escaped, after he entrapped and 'befriended' a sentinel (Laylaps I think he called it?). That itteration might well have been 'us' in an earlier itteration.

mighty rampart
#

yeah Laylaps

uncut harness
#

the glass and abyss always intrigued me because they're so similar

mighty rampart
#

so building a base computer lets us read the logs of this iteration

#

possibly us

uncut harness
#

both are figures that became more apparent through simulation deterioration of some regard, and yet are entirely unknown (and referenced so much, anyway)

#

is there an amount of time you need to pulse to find the new space anomalies?

mighty rampart
#

no set amount

prime spade
#

(Headcanon on my part. But long-term data archives in the real world CAN be laser-etched into glass as a substrate, allowing data to be stored 3 dimensionally in remarkable density for extremely long periods and in very adverse conditions.

It'd almost make sense for the system - faced with destruction, to try archive stuff literally to a solid substrate like glass).

mighty rampart
#

I pulse jumped for 3 mins and got nothing

#

pulse jumped again in a different system, something would pop up every 10-15 seconds

uncut harness
#

@prime spade that was always a very interesting detail from the WT ARG. do you remember the infinity mirror analogy?

#

hm alright, ive been trying for like 20 min

#

like, when we put an atlas station against a glass, which reflected another glass

#

and then took a photo

prime spade
#

I honestly don't remember too much of the ARG's details and revelations.

#

(BRB rebooting)

outer cobalt
#

I have often thought the world of glass might be related to White-box testing, aka glass box testing.

uncut harness
#

we did that, and I didn't realize it until much later, but with mirrors being composed of glass, it made me ask: are the world of glass and the literal glass that comprise mirrors connected? seems like a no-brainer to me... world of glass is somehow related to the atlas' ability to continue making itself, over and over

#

it's just hard to pin-point where, or how

icy citrus
#

My theory is still backup storage - world of glass is linked to where the sentinels send everyone, and no one dies

#

If one more Gek stops me mid-flight and needs a microprocessor... I'm gonna..... well I guess, just give it to them

uncut harness
#

perhaps the glass protocol stores both every subsequent simulation as well as every living being from within them, and that's what we hear so much about

#

it's interesting, because the creator regards the glass as unexpected, yet it's a protocol...

icy citrus
#

Maybe someday we will learn the answers

outer cobalt
#

Hopefully not any time soon, it would ruin the experience

uncut harness
#

every good story has that loose, undefinable thread

#

most, anyway

#

but we have so many

outer cobalt
#

It should remain at least somewhat vague and open to interpretation to keep it somewhat interesting

icy citrus

I can live with that

#

that's why we're talking about it four years later, after all

icy citrus
#

True

#

I still want the Abyss though

#

Mystery be damned

outer cobalt
#

Like telling a kid all about Santa, to then right after say it's all made up, so no presents for you ...

uncut harness
#

that's what we need: a genuine discussion over abyss, because that one is harder to figure out than the glass at this point

#

is it another AI, or is it an extension of the ATLAS? is it both, or is it the result of aberrant behavior stemming from its death instead?

icy citrus
#

Update? Old version?

#

I need to know

#

Virus?

uncut harness
#

it's not a protocol, yet it spreads across the entirety of the simulation

icy citrus
#

It does say it can corrupt

uncut harness
#

oh, yeah, it does

#

abyss literally means a bottomless, dark chasm, so I'm still betting something death related, and not something related to an actual new figure

#

but it's still intriguing

icy citrus
#

Maybe that's why the horrors are the same - all a part of the Abyss Virus

uncut harness
#

also, something else: there are two parts to the lore that mention the abyss, and seem like they might be connected to me

#

there's the log about a freighter full of the first spawn "fleeing an abyss" and then the crashed freighter of "dreams of the deep." what if these were one in the same?

#

in greek myth, the most abyss-like being there is, is for damned souls

"examine the egg in your inventory" how do i do that?

im looking at it rn and it doesnt say much

icy citrus

#

That's the clue

prime spade
#

Could be as simple as the abyss being the personification of the purge that ATLAS conducted. The freighters we see scattered were an exodus fleet fleeing the purge, no reason to think the one in the abyss was any different.

That being said however the purge was executed by the Sentinels.

there's a similar water sound in the final atlas interface of the artemis path

it's like dripping water, in some abandoned building

might be representative of what the atlas' environment is like outside of its simulation, with it being left on an abandoned planet in some building, probably

a massive, massive stretch, but... we can suppose the atlas is inside of a building, right, like any machine? and like any building, buildings decompose. I've always wondered what it would be like to be next to the atlas in its final moments - the deterioration of the building it's in.

and I've always wondered how the atlas is protecting itself from being destroyed as the building itself caves in, through a millennia.. seems like a weird, left out detail

well, with the building being broken, and perhaps almost not even existing anymore... what if the atlas was personifying an actual threat of water into the simulation? like I said, a stretch. like, rain, or busted pipes leaking the water... through its rampancy ushered by its death, it might just be literally using the water near its physical form and simulating a danger similar to it, is what I'm saying. and no, I don't believe it, I just think it's interesting, even if completely wrong

or was it 'energy signature'

even if this is all wrong, it does make me question how the building the atlas is held in is holding up by the time it dies, lol

@lusty hare what do you mean buggy

That is how @hot wigeon - maybe try another system?

@mighty rampart well, I assume it should be leading me to another plaque or monolith or something, not a boundary failuer

I was just confused because it led me to a different thing in each stage and I have had so many bugs so far

To then spring to life again as if nothing happened, because all it was was an update to the simulation as we know it

mighty rampart
#

@misty citrus it wont work for you anyway

uncut harness
#

well if water is being used by the atlas to create the abyss, why is it spawning in so many enemies and corrupt creatures in the water? rampancy? it's not able to take its death, and the danger of the water, lightly? I don't know

misty citrus
#

@mighty rampart I have the part of Starbirth where I need to find a marked planet but I lost my active void egg

mighty rampart
#

is it from the beginning?

misty citrus
#

Like when you find the first marked system/planet with coordinates to go to

mighty rampart

ok first then

#

hmm

#

could be possible then maybe

#

I found out that if you lose the active void egg in the middle of the mission, it will be permanently bricked

misty citrus
#

oof

mighty rampart
#

normal void egg wont help, active void egg even in that particular state does not seem to work

uncut harness
#

ok last thing I'll say - if the abyss is a caricature of the atlas' fear of the water, it makes sense it has a distinct signal, yet similar to the atlas. that's because the fear is not meant to exist, and thus is a different power in some regard (as it is extremely powerful to a machine), but the fear comes from the atlas anyway, which is why it's so similar. food for thought

I do remember that Abyss Lore when it was added in like.. Atlas Rises right? I was kinda worried they forgotten it..

The atlas fears the water because it's a computer

As the atlas dies, the water becomes more prominent? Explains the relation to 16, or at least it’s suffering rampancy either because of an actual fear of water or the abyss represents the void of nothingness swallowing the simulation whole... or both

The First Spawn would not stop talking, would not stop glorifying their cruel life of brutality and pain. One night they sang a song, a tale of a lost people, of an armada of freighters fleeing the abyss.

Of a world where every Sentinel turned against every living thing, annihilating them all within moments. Laylaps showed no sign of understanding. It did not leave us, nor did it try and explain.

After my stem matured, I pulse jumped and got the second living ship to stop and talk to me, and then I continued pulsing instead of hopping to the system like the egg wanted me to, and I got another anomaly and it was a squiggly thing but then it disappeared so I reloaded and this time a black hole popped up.

Are there any lore or story as to why there are Abandoned Stations? I just came across my very first one

#

Its terrifying and aweosme

uncut harness
#

Kinda.

#

But mostly no.

small pier
#

I notice the... corruption right?

#

Its all over it

uncut harness
#

Abandoned Stations were the Space Stations the game had for a long while until they re-designed them to the Space Stations in game now.

#

So it's more of a nod to what once was.

brave crow
#

so wait

#

do i have to do all this counciousness bridge crafting and stuff or just find some portal

#

and enter some glyph

#

nvm i see

uncut harness
#

👍

brave crow
#

can you find trading posts from maps that you make out of nav data on a space station/>

#

?

cloud rune
#

Can anyone on PS4–Normal taxi me to the planet at the end of the Starbirth quest that requires the portal glyphs? I don’t have all of them yet.

Will give you another free Void Egg

loud mural
#

question how many parts are there for the starbirth quest? im on fragile shell

graceful spire
#

5

#

how is the last planet called, where the final of the quest takes place?
I just wanted to know if there's already a gamepedia page about it.

lusty hare
#

okay, after the reset is there supposed to be a white screen for a very long time, or is my game messed up?

#

nevermind, it finally loaded

brave crow
#

right

#

i got the nural sten

#

stem

#

should i close application on NMS and skip 2 days ahead now?

jovial stag
brave crow
#

i got the brain thing

#

should i close nms?

#

and skip time?

jovial stag
#

well if you should wait 24 hours for it to mature what do you think you should do?

brave crow
#

yeah but should i close NMS

jovial stag
#

yes, otherwise it may not like the time being changed while its running....

brave crow
#

ok

#

ill close it now

#

okie app closed

pure radish
#

hi does anyone know how to get upgrades for the living ship?

brave crow
#

ight its the 16th now

#

should be matured

lusty hare
#

er, I got a blueprint for 'remembrance' but I need a 'heart of the sun' any idea where to get that? the mission log doesnt say

pure radish
#

you need to visit the atlas interfaces

#

if you set it to your primary mission

#

itll show you where they are

#

you go in and get blueprint

lusty hare
#

oh, like for the Atlas Path? I dont have that mission anymore because I did Artemis Path.... should I have done Atlas first?

pure radish
#

yes

#

the atlas path

#

you can do either

lusty hare
#

I thought Artemis first was better

pure radish
#

i did artemis too but it doesnt really matter

toxic dirge
#

Is there a weekly amount of QuickSilver missions someone can do?

charred stratus
#

you get 1 per day

#

also you get a big one on the weekend for 1200

lusty hare
#

just kinda sucks that I will now have a half built tech sitting in my inventory and mission log now until I do the whole Atlas thing

pure radish
#

i know but you gotta do it eventually

#

like im hopping systems to break tthe economy for money with wiring looms and it takes time

#

patience is key

brave crow
#

brave crow
#

icy citrus
#

Or growing ours

brave crow
#

how cool would it be to have a fleet of living ships on a living freighter

hot wigeon
#

you need to get 5 living ships in order to sacrificed for the freighter

brave crow
#

and living frigates

jade jackal
#

living heads when

brave crow
#

no

icy citrus
#

Tomorrow

hot wigeon

icy citrus

still stratus
#

I got distracted lol

brave crow
#

@still stratus slam the egg as hard as you can onto your knee and it gives you a bb ship

still stratus
#

...

jade jackal
#

why does that mech have 2 different legs?

brave crow
#

you eat the ship, it turns you into a ship

#

icy citrus

Wip

brave crow

jade jackal

subnautica, but biiig

brave crow

#

Living ship question... So if I save before and reload after if I don't like my living ship, when is it generated? Can I pull this off just before it's unveiled or do I have to go waaay back and do the whole 21 hour waiting thing. Or.... is it generated by the system you start/end in?

hot wigeon
#

make a save right before you accept the intercom

jade jackal
#

after you go through the portal back to your own world

hot wigeon
#

like a hard save

jade jackal
#

but before you get into your ship

hot wigeon
#

yes

#

@pure sun ^^^

#

our teamwork is great @jade jackal

jade jackal
#

;)

pure sun
#

The intercom when you first go into pulse drive witht he void egg?

jade jackal
#

nooh, way later

pure sun
#

Okay, so after the 21 hours?

jade jackal
#

is this your first 21 hours?

pure sun
#

Yesssss....

jade jackal
#

aah allright

#

well theres 4 21/24/20 hours wait periods

still stratus
#

Do i need to have emeril drives?

pure sun
#

Lame..

karmic skiff
#

You are now the opposite of TheHappiness

jade jackal
#

^true

pure sun
#

So after the fourth period?

jade jackal
#

after the fourth you go to a portal

#

and when you return from the teleporter, then you save

#

but you dont need to worry about that now

hot wigeon
#

ones a 25 hour wait

jade jackal
#

since you still need to wait 80+ hours

pure sun
#

Which is why I don't want a lame ship.

hot wigeon
#

yeah word

karmic skiff
#

I'm waiting for the composter update to get rid of our disappointing whale babies

hot wigeon
karmic skiff
#

Ooooo nice

jovial stag
#

Nice I hope I get one that colour... just visited the glitch so now waiting begins

icy citrus
jovial stag
#

I have another wait after this one don't I @icy citrus having just visited the Glitch thing where you interact with the terminal on the side?

icy citrus
#

Yep

jovial stag
#

so it'll be Monday or Tuesday when I get mine then...

hot wigeon
#

damn

icy citrus
#

But it will be beautifully ugly

jovial stag
#

it certainly wants to be worth the wait and all this faffing about...

icy citrus
#

I haven't seen a single bad one - I have seen ones I wouldn't pick because of the color but they still look good

#

In an ugly nasty way

jovial stag
#

I'd be more than happy with a white one... 😉

icy citrus
#

Yeah I know lol

uncut harness
icy citrus
#

Oh that is awful, I like it

uncut harness
#

They're so disgusting.

icy citrus
#

Name it Malignancy

uncut harness
#

HAH

icy citrus
#

Great name !

glad tartan
#

That one looks neat

gaunt kettle
#

How many steps are there im at the heart

icy citrus
#

I dunno, heart brain shell soul? Am I missing any?

gaunt kettle
#

Oh gods i have 2 more :-/

icy citrus
#

Oh, and you have to charge the soul chamber

gaunt kettle
#

I assume thats what the waiting is for?

icy citrus
#

Waiting between each step

uncut harness
#

There's 5 phases

gaunt kettle
#

Fucking kill me

uncut harness
#

I assume you know how to skip the wait

brittle kelp
#

There’s a trick you can do on ps4 to skip the wait

uncut harness
#

But yeah the coordinate search gets a bit grating

icy citrus
#

On all platforms

gaunt kettle
#

Yeah but i dont wanna fuck it up

cloud rune
#

Can anyone bring me to the portal planet at the end?

uncut harness
#

@gaunt kettle NMS does a good job fucking itself up

#

You should be fine LMAO

cloud rune
#

the glyphs don't work

icy citrus
#

?

cloud rune
#

I’m missing the last 2 glyphs, which are needed for the quest

icy citrus
#

Ah

cloud rune
#

I found a grave and it didn’t give me anything

icy citrus
#

What platform?

cloud rune
#

PS4 Normal

icy citrus
#

xbox 💔

cloud rune
#

Do you have the regular coordinates to the planet? I might be able to warp there

#

depending on how far I am away

jovial stag
#

wouldn't work anyway... you have to activate the portal yourself.. if you join someone who portalled to the system you will be placed in the system they left from not where they are currently...

foggy jacinth
cloud rune
#

yeah but it still would be open

icy citrus
#

Group warp solves that

cloud rune
#

the portal

hot wigeon
#

my ship is so friendly

icy citrus
#

Nah, you can't use it if someone else activates it

uncut harness
#

if you reset the simulation do you,

  1. get to go to essenstiem
  2. Get to keep your bases in euclid
    3.does it damage all your stuff
hot wigeon
jovial stag
#

it wouldn't be for you, you must charge it yourself

#

@uncut harness Yes

foggy jacinth
#

@uncut harness 1) If you choose the right icon (Eissentam is green)
2) Yes
3) Yes. Use a junk ship and multi-tool to help out.

jovial stag
#

@hot wigeon if the one I get is not White I'm going to hunt you down.... 😉

icy citrus
#

Galactic address : 026A:0084:0C16:0219
