Ok, example. PS player has a current base on his platform, with many neighbours. His 'universe' is not equal to that on PC, from which I join. I build a base, which is now in PS universe. I go back to single player and end up back in PC universe. How can this not be an issue? Or am I missing some magic here?

heavy isle
#

Overlap would be the problem yeah

mighty rampart
#

so it is a single shared universe then, good on HG as it would be less of a headache moving on

outer cobalt
#

PS bases never existed in my PC universe, do they disappear again? Will my base still be in both PC and PS universe?

heavy isle
#

If it weren't super populated I don't see an issue but as soon as you have overlap it gets interesting

outer cobalt
#

If they somehow managed to merge everything (without issue) I see no problem. But maintaining already existing 'known' different universes and properly syncing all seems like some voodoo to me

heavy isle
#

Thing is right now if an Xbox players goes to the same system us PC folks have tons of shit on, they will see all that shit

#

So there wouldn't be a risk of overlap

outer cobalt
#

I am not an expert though, so who knows what trickery is involved. I just wonder about this

heavy isle
#

Well logically its a good point in this particular scenario

outer cobalt
#

Well yes, as said earlier, possibly the same 'testing' universe, or shared PC universe as they all join fresh currently

#

But I think it is fair to wonder and speculate what will happen and how this is going to be done once this goes out of beta and other platforms truly join

heavy isle
#

The only way in my opinion to avoid overlap of same system dickery is to have the group owner show to all discovery wise and ambient would be limited

#

Yeah

outer cobalt
#

Discoveries already act weird at times ...

heavy isle
#

Yeah for sure

outer cobalt
#

You think you were first, are in MP and all of a sudden some random new player has all your discoveries listed. Then a week later you check it out again and it's all back to how it should have been to begin with

heavy isle
#

You've got the P2P connection plus discovery REST API unless they changed that but it was certainly REST before

#

I guess time will tell lol

outer cobalt
#

Then again, being reminded of 'multiverses', it would not amaze me to see weird things happen as a result of the choice made.

heavy isle
#

Or its dynamic

#

It was odd, prob a bug, but the console players base did disappear when my pc friend joined me in the system

#

This was after a restart in solo mode

#

Prob discovery services getting worked on or just general oddness

outer cobalt
#

Have you tried leaving the system as well? As that at least used to unload any loaded player bases until experimental. Restarting the game while still in the same system doesn't cause a change.

heavy isle
#

Yup

#

Left and came back no problem

#

Even saw other dudes in my group who were console in the galaxy map in neighbor system before

outer cobalt
#

In all honesty though, I wouldn't mind a full on reset if that helps the game in any way, never have been against it in favour of development

heavy isle
#

I agree

outer cobalt
#

Of course you try to restrict any damage done as much as possible

#

Hmmm, loads of new roaming base computers once this goes out of beta?

#

lol

heavy isle
#

One thing I was not able to do was just join a console players group if we weren't in the Nexus

#

Or invite to mine

outer cobalt
#

Not from launch menu either?

heavy isle
#

No

outer cobalt
#

Ok, interesting

heavy isle
#

I added him also but there was no option

#

As a friend*

#

Yeah not on launch either correct

#

Once we were grouped up I could warp, teleport, do whatever the hell i wanted without any issues, visit the system he's in via Nexus, all was fine

outer cobalt
#

So there is something about Nexus only

#

So what if it is going to be multiverses, could a new planned story possibly explain that?

heavy isle
#

What I didnt try was linking up when we were both in the same system separately

#

As I saw him just flying around and he didn't have a headset sadly

#

If that works then maybe you just both need to be in the same system for now?

#

For example in the networking menu I could only invite not join with my steam friends if I was already in game

#

But not outside steam

outer cobalt
#

It intrigues me and I wonder what it must be like to tackle a problem like implementing full on cross-play. I bet our worries are small compared to what the devs have to deal with. Amaze us HG! You can do it!

tepid iris
#

implement the Azure PlayFab API is the answer 😛

#

you don't need to reinvent the wheel

outer cobalt
#

Would be a whole lot easier if the game had yet to be released. Not so much after years of gameplay while expanding to other platforms and at the same time trying to keep your customers happy

tepid iris
#

not in the OOP era 🙂

#

everything is being developed modulary, which makes it much easier to built in or replace certain blocks

balmy flare
#

Does the atlas missions just end with putting the sun thing into the atlas

idle jay
#

Yes

balmy flare
#

Damn that's lame :(

fervent eagle
#

is there a working dupe glitch?

mental socket
#

So, anything interesting happened so far?

fervent eagle
#

... anyone know of a working dupe glitch?

#

nvm

mental socket
#

dis for spoilers

#

and I don't know any

grizzled apex
#

@mental socket nope

mental socket
#

Someone mentioned there are new audio files in the experimental. Are those all just music or what?

ripe rapids
#

I've heard around a 100 files and there is quite a lot of music

#

But there are 5276 new audio files so...

heady wyvern
#

Hm? Do I hear talk of music? Do tell...

grizzled apex
#

@mental socket over a thousand sound files. Some are thought to be new music. They are In some different format (WEM?)

mental socket
#

Hmm, I wonder

#

Any hints at voice acted lines?

grizzled apex
#

I doubt it. Anything related to the weekend missions would have been detected in the text files

#

Where we found the story

mental socket
#

And is the music just a bunch of old 65DOS stuff?

grizzled apex
#

Not sure. I believe its new

#

@hybrid pendant could you help us out here?

ripe rapids
#

I haven't heard anything I had heard before in the new audio

mental socket
#

Hmm, so what kind of vibes does the music give?

ripe rapids
#

Well, at least the music

mental socket
#

NO FREE SLOTS IN SUIT INVENTORY

#

There is a lot of ambient noise, so that could be old

nocturne zephyr
#

Wow this chat first glance causes great anxiety

mental socket
#

I need to know

#

can xbox players be in a session with more than 4 people now

#

in beta

heady wyvern
#

Groups, I feel, will always be capped at four.

#

Sessions, in contrast, have always been capped at 16 for consoles.

mental socket
#

sessions in anomaly have been capped to 16

#

but in wild, consoles can only have 4 player sessions

#

atleast on ps4

heady wyvern
#

I've seen portal destinations with more people.

mental socket
#

I've only seen up to 4 ppl on events and stuff

#

ps4 pro

#

ah, it's 8 outside anomaly on console

#

34 on PC

#

playing both

empty cedar
#

One clue to increasing player caps (if it were to ever happen) would be an increased # of parking spaces.

#

Oh, a question. I saw the word "hangar" in one of those datamining screenshots. Is that likely just a reference to the freighter parking area, or is there a decent chance it suggests something new?

mental socket
#

just the freighter stuff I assume

#

most of it was old files

empty cedar
#

Ah so that's actually a hangar, then.

#

Oh well.

gusty stream
#

What is... "the Abyss?"

heavy isle
#

A long ass film featuring Ed Harris! Haha - it was the update that introduced under water exploration

sullen drift
#

I think they are asking about The Entity...? Or am I assuming wrong..?

craggy sluice
#

most of it was old files
@mental socket damn I was hoping that we are having new fixed structures in space like shipyards aside from the ole space station

#

Or even military or pirate bases

pastel falcon
#

So hey

#

recap on the things that have been found the last few days?

bitter remnant
#

Sure;

Crossplay. For more information read above.

grizzled apex
#

And new living ship parts, and the entirety of the upcoming weekend mission storyline

#

Well, ALMOST the entirety

tepid iris
#

hm

mental socket
#

they broke all the hills and slopes

indigo smelt
#

Who do the robots who contain the creatures found in containment facilities serve? Are they sentinels?

grizzled apex
#

?

#

Could you elaborate?

hybrid pendant
#

@grizzled apex ???

#

what help

grizzled apex
#

What

heavy isle
#

velvet hills of carpet, yeah that doesn't look great lol

indigo smelt
#

I mean, there is something that captures these creatures, and it doesn't appear to serve the abyss.

#

Sentinels don't appear to wipe out these creatures either, but sentinels don't do anything on anomaly planets either.

grizzled apex
#

These things are from alternate universes, ones which have different histories than our own. Some have some aggressive sentinels while others may have no life. The sentinels in our iteration are glitches, bot under the command if the atlas

indigo smelt
#

Glitches? Is there anything to support that?

#

What makes you think sentinels aren't an intended function of the simulation?

grizzled apex
#

The main story

#

They aren't functioning properly

indigo smelt
#

No, those are alternate universe sentinels.

grizzled apex
#

The atlas has reported thousands of issues with it

#

Play the Artemis path

#

The part where you first see the atlas

indigo smelt
#

These sentinels don't try to destroy all life, unlike the universe where Nada came from. Nada and -Null- went to another universe.

#

Some things certainly leaked, but sentinels don't appear to be it.

#

If anything, sentinels in that universe got corrupted by the Abyss.

#

But what issues are we talking here?

grizzled apex
#

The atlas has attempted to command the sentinels, yet in the Artemis path, Subroutine: SENTINAL is heavily damaged, with lots of errors

indigo smelt
#

That doesn't tell you anything, just that there are problems, but not where. Those problems can be anything, even having sentinels appear on worlds they shouldn't.

#

Sentinels in Nada's universe where fighting each other as well.

#

What I'm saying is that Nada, Polo and -null- simply left that universe behind. That universe wasn't deleted or destroyed, the sentinels were just left by their own devices. -Null- did not reset the simulation.

grizzled apex
#

But Telamon did. In one of the boundary failure logs its mentioned that that specific universe was deleted from the universal hierarchy

indigo smelt
#

That makes sense.

tepid iris
#

I first thought it was a glitch

#

but it's a scripted moment in the story 😛

grizzled apex
#

Artemis path?

#

Woah woah woah

#

I cant belive I missed this!

#

The weekend missions talk about a cult of gek from the Last Spawn

indigo smelt
#

Last spawn? You mean first spawn?

#

Are we talking an Atlas cult or a traveler cult?

static urchin
#

last spawn lmao

grizzled apex
#

No, the Last spawn

#

The Gek last spawn

#

At first I thought this was a typo, but the last spawn has been mentioned a lot in the missions

indigo smelt
#

Is it compiled somewhere?

grizzled apex
#

Are we getting an actual antagonist? Maybe the last spawn, which has been hiding till now, will rise again and start killing everyone?

indigo smelt
#

Or the abyss could be the antagonist?

grizzled apex
#

Thanks to Devillin Pixy

#

Oh yea I forgot to mention. They praise the abyss

indigo smelt
#

Yes! More Abyss lore!

grizzled apex
#

Finally!

indigo smelt
#

Who was ariadne again?

grizzled apex
#

Maybe the abyss will control these geks and command them to destroy everything!

#

@indigo smelt the cat faced purple dude who greets you

#

On the first time you visit the anomaly

indigo smelt
#

This is interesting. The abyss wants traveler souls it seems.

grizzled apex
#

Yea. I feel like the abyss is very hungry for power and control

indigo smelt
#

This is one hell of a discovery:

Id: UI_MP_PORTALQUEST_BLD_RES_21
Value: I see the final vestiges of the AI as all corruption departs, the final fifteen minutes of its life...
It knew I would come here. It knew I would try to save it.
Worlds upon worlds seethe in the void. The Abyss spreads.

#

@outer cobalt Thank you for your lore compilation. You helped me towards a breakthrough in my lore project.

grizzled apex
#

Mind sharing?

indigo smelt
#

We're not there yet.

grizzled apex
#

What's it about?

indigo smelt
#

Getting a full picture of the Abyss.

grizzled apex
#

Just a complete lore compilation?

#

@indigo smelt
Want help?

nocturne zephyr
#

Hmmm wondering if it'd be a good idea to finally do the abyss storyline. Wanted to wait to do it until there was more variety underwater but if the upcoming story missions are connected to it I might do it

indigo smelt
#

I consider the abyss quest to be a tease more or less.

outer cobalt
#

@indigo smelt No problem, you're welcome

uncut harness
#

Haha I might’ve been right with my own theory as well

static urchin
#

please expand on that

#

sorry I had to say it

uncut harness
#

Ba dum tss

#

No I don’t blame you haha

static urchin
#

lmao

uncut harness
#

Tbf it was fairly common. It was that ||the abyss is a manifestation of atlas dying. Like an emotional response such as rampancy or quite literally just the black void of nothingness swallowing it whole||

#

||Which is what abyss is with the word||

#

||And that scene described that was leaked is just like the one in remembrance. We approach it while its systems are failing just like the figure in the light and the dark. Since we are simulated forms of the creator, we could break through the chain of simulations and offer solace to the atlas just like it wanted in the completion of 16!

And one other thing—a mirror reflects light and darkness. If the figure is mirrored, it would be in the light and darkness. We could break through the world of glass hosting all simulations to save the atlas and become glassed ourselves. But that’s just a theory||

Essay done

gusty stream
#

Hold up

#

Is that

#

Datamined dialog or something?

#

Who tf is Ariadne?

#

Oh the brain head dude

#

Ok some creepy ass shit's gonna happen in this.

mental socket
#

spooki

uncut harness
#

Whooooa

indigo smelt
#

Ariadne is the purple at the left side of the anomaly, just after the ramp near the landing pads.

raw rover
#

Wait

#

If atlas is created by someone does that mean there’s a bigger world outside of him

#

Yes woman’s sky confirmed

brave flower
#

Not bigger. Just real.

balmy nimbus
#

Considering the simulation is running on PC, PS4 and XBox, would you say there is 3 Atlas ?

idle jay
#

I would say it’s more like one Atlas with three iterations of the same thing (soon to be one iteration of course 😉)

balmy nimbus
#

Correct (was my first intention, but english is not my main)

#

So basicly, crossplatform means fusion of the 3 iterations of a same "program" ?

idle jay
#

Basically

balmy nimbus
#

Thanks for answering

uncut harness
#

👍 If you are excite for new update

nocturne zephyr
#

👉

grizzled apex
#

I doubt HG is merging universes

#

Your iteration itself might end up being a unique region where crossplay happens

mental socket
#

would be sad

#

and kinda disappointing

#

remember to not set high expectations

uncut harness
#

So I'm speculating but what if they show a trailer at the PS5 event

nocturne zephyr
#

Thursday

#

Maybe a crossplay 'announcement'

#

Actually nevermind, I think crossplay will hit way earlier than next gen

uncut harness
#

Yea the update is rumored for this month so the announcement may be at the PS5 event.. We could possibly see NMS running on a PS5 Thursday

mental socket
#

Steam Sub 331913 was added 5 hours ago

#

can anyone confirm what kind of package this is?

#

is it anything to be excited of?

heavy glacier
#

it looks like nms was added to it 6 hours ago, but that package has existed for a while

#

it has a bunch of other games in it, not sure what it's for. but some of them were added months ago

#

i think maybe nms was already on there or something, the change that caused it to float to the top was an update to a different game in that package (Beam NG)

#

maybe they're lumped together by their tags or something, a lot of the games in there are marked as simulators or survival

wanton path
#

😮

#

NMS: The SImulation simulator

grizzled apex
#

Nothing new. Just a record change

heavy glacier
#

yeah it doesn't mean anything for nms

coral nova
#

I’m actually hella hyped for crossplay

uncut harness
#

I excited for ps5 NMS

#

maybe it could finally run those massive cities

nocturne zephyr
#

Or actual forests

uncut harness
#

YES

#

a legit jungle

clever flame
#

wait nms is coming to ps5?

uncut harness
#

idk

#

hopefully

nocturne zephyr
#

most likely

#

safe to assume

rotund forge
#

wouldn't any prior PS games go to the next gen?

empty cedar
#

Apologies in advance if this has already been shared/discussed, but good info here about the superformula stuff everyone's been arguing about/speculating on:
https://youtu.be/tg9qTZhc1SQ

#

(not my video, not affiliated)

#

It's from MZK, earlier today

flat sky
#

/16/16/16

idle jay
#

Like I said. The timing is suspicious

mental socket
#

hmm

#

timing of what?

idle jay
#

The license for the superformula expiring

mental socket
#

Well it would be weird if they had planned to wait for 4 years until they could use the superformula, trusting that nobody would renew the trademark/lisence as it expires

#

Would be a really risky plan with a high potential for the entire development time to be wasted

empty cedar
#

Maybe they had put some folks on a side R&D project, as an option.
But that's getting deeper into speculation and I shouldn't go there.

uncut harness
#

Wait what?

#

superformula?

idle jay
#

I hope so to. The information has been correct so far but I'll still doubt it just to be safe

uncut harness
#

Wait

#

what is the superformula?

uncut harness
#

Oooo that was really interesting video.. What if the original first trailer was using the superformula but it got copyright striked so Hello Games removed it before launch?

stoic beacon
#

Unfortunately that’s not the case. It’s a widely established fact that the planets and events of the pre release trailers were heavily handcrafted, and those that were procedural still had very tight generational parameters to reach a specific outcome.

#

As much as I would love to play a game as varietous as the one portrayed in those trailers,

#

That game just didn’t ever really exist.

uncut harness
#

It possibly could with this superformula tho

#

I just hope to see worlds like this someday

craggy sluice
#

The 1st and 2nd can be done though mods

#

But I wish HG could actually incorporate them in vanilla

uncut harness
#

They can... They had for points to focus on remember ? Trade Explore Survive and one more. I think those we're the main things they wanted to improve upon

idle jay
#

Trade Explore Survive Fight

uncut harness
#

WHAT SUPERFORMULA

idle jay
#

A special formula that can form a large amount of shapes and stuff. It would have been used to create unique flora, fauna, rocks, terrain

uncut harness
#

Ah

#

and why is this not used?

#

Man, those pictures look awesome

#

i want to find a purely ice world someday

#

not a lush world with snow

idle jay
#

They got into legal trouble because the scientist who created it had a copyright on it

uncut harness
#

Oh

#

that sucks

idle jay
#

But now that expired so they are free to use it

uncut harness
#

YES

#

HG USE IT

#

this game could go INSANE in the next update

#

im waiting

#

if ive learned anything from hg its that silence is golden

when they dont say or do anything for a while

#

big shit coming

#

Out of all those images up there, my favorite is the ice one

idle jay
#

That one is pretty nice

#

I like all of them

uncut harness
#

Yup, they all look good. I like it cause ice worlds look eh now, they hqve the biggest forests but least variety

#

they all look the same

idle jay
#

That pretty much goes for any biome

uncut harness
#

Ya, but frozen is the extreme case

#

Lush to a lesser extent

#

but still up there

#

and pretty much wverything else besides like radioactive and desert

idle jay
#

The ones that have the worst case are ice, radioactive, desert, hot

#

And also technically exotics when you think about it

uncut harness
#

True

idle jay
#

Lush is the only one with any actual color variety and that's about it. But even then the colors are limited

uncut harness
#

True

#

Goodness hg

#

and thats why i use mods

idle jay
#

If we don't get a variation overhaul any time soon then I'm just going to use the variation mods. And then MV when that comes out

craggy sluice
#

They can... They had for points to focus on remember ? Trade Explore Survive and one more. I think those we're the main things they wanted to improve upon
@uncut harness It's a shame that the combat is so bad that it is being forgotten... despite it being included in the original 4 pillars

#

I'm digging those anomalous planets (scarlet, haunted emeril, chromatic fog, etc). They are still varied to a lesser extent and not like the primary offenders in arctic, hot, toxic, nuclear, empty planets

#

And there is always the added spookiness and mysterious vibe

idle jay
#

True but they could do so much more with them

craggy sluice
#

Yeah, even if they added new biomes but refuse to fix the variation for each biome then the problem still isn't solved

idle jay
#

Or just...make biomes procedural. It would fix many things about variation

#

But yeah just piling on a few biomes won't fix the problem. It needs to be improved on a major level

craggy sluice
#

Let the engine/math create its own biomes

idle jay
#

The engine is capable of so much more yet they aren't utilizing it to its full potential

craggy sluice
#

Terrain generation can be limited by current gen hardware, but color variation isn't

idle jay
#

Well we aren't entirely sure how crazy terrain can get before it affects performance in console

#

Besides I don't think it's much of an excuse. Pre next had better crazier terrain yet it was running on the ps4

crisp fern
#

And tbh kinda ran better, lol

mental socket
#

less stuff happening & lower res = better performance

uncut harness
#

Variation and Exploration took a back seat so HG can focus on other elements such as base building and multiplayer. But all that is in a good spot now I believe. Now HG can focus on the Proc Gen and Variety in the game

grizzled apex
#

Well that was.... unexpected

uncut harness
#

@sinful saddle I'm sticking to my theory... They'll show a trailer at the PS5 event that shows off new proc gen and better variety and maybe even the a new universe reset and planets that orbit the star

strong bluff
#

I still wonder how will they handle ambient exploration. When all platforms have different universe seed. 🤔

#

Unless it will be based on a host (player who will enter the star system as first).

vague shuttle
#

What do you mean by different seeds? I believe all universes use the same number seed, making them all basically identical. They of course become different as a result of player actions, but that wouldnt change the starting seed.

strong bluff
#

I thought that each platform used different seed for universe. 🤔 But it seems that since Beyond they are all same. 🤔

vague shuttle
#

I dont think so. I think every region, system, procedural planet name, etc starts the same in all platforms.

sinful saddle
#

I don't know how it works, but, if I recall correctly, pc and xbox universes were indentical but not the ps4?

uncut harness
#

Somehow Multitool cabinets are platform specific

#

Both in terms of models and class

sinful saddle
#

It will be interesting to see how that sort of thing works out

subtle gorge
#

They haven't for awhile @strong bluff

@sinful saddle iirc PS4 becoming different was a bug that they fixed later on

balmy nimbus
#

what about modding and crossplay ? any consequence ?

crisp fern
#

Btw, haven't bothered to check so dunno but I take it with crossplay GOG & Steam folks can now play together?

tall vessel
#

I think I saw icons somewhere that included GOG different from Steam, so guessing @crisp fern

#

@balmy nimbus modding usually doesn't affect other players too much, it will probably work like it does now on PC, if you have mods that usually doesn't effect other players. Since they haven't done anything to stop it on PC I doubt they would do anything about it for crossplay

balmy nimbus
#

I was thinking about consoles with modded pc. Thanks for answering

crisp fern
#

@tall vessel yeah, I saw those too, I just haven't seen any GOG folks chip in having seen others. I'm guessing yes too though

quiet horizon
#

I'd assume so yeah, can't see any reason why GOG wouldn't be included

So is it just a myth that you get more lush planets outside of Euclid?

grizzled apex

You get more lush planets in eissentam

Also, in case you’re confused, it’s not that the planets are more lush

There’s just a higher proportion of lush planets

I thought it was Budullangr

heady wyvern

Question was about exotic or anomalous planets, not extreme hazard planets.

#

And we're looking for a specific galaxy.

Budullangr is Empty

heady wyvern
#

Then that's your answer, @craggy sluice.

empty cedar
#

And yeah, I was referring to Weird planets

They are easier to find in red star systems, which are more common in Empty and Harsh galaxyes

The leaker made another post about Proc Gen
@uncut harness What did they say?

#

Link?

uncut harness
#

@idle jay he said that he was right about the crossplay and weekend missions and then went on to say he's right about the Proc Gen improvements and HG is preparing something this week.. Maybe we'll see a trailer at the PS5 event tomorrow?

heady wyvern
#

Don't get too hasty, boys.

#

A single lucky shot does not make a man a sharpshooter.

uncut harness
#

Oh trust me I'm holding my hype cause his first post was removed from 4chan. And so far no sign of anything but crossplay

heady wyvern
#

And the update is tomorrow, mind.

quasi mantle
#

Weren't signs of possible crossplay before this? Like the icons, for example?

heady wyvern
#

Yes, those were datamined beforehand.

uncut harness
#

The first leak is a week old.. Crossplay was data mined this week right?

#

Plus why haven't they released an update trailer?

heady wyvern
#

They have a development blog update.

quasi mantle
#

'cause this isn't technically a content update

heady wyvern

That, too. They usually do that for content drops.

There's nothing interesting new in the text, and I doubt there's going to be anything new in the other files since a couple of days ago.

wanton path
#

it's possible there is no clue of new weekend missions in the mined data because, as HG said, they've reworked the entire backend network achitecture. Maybe they can hot-push new events, quest and so

grizzled apex
#

Well that sorta useless

#

We have 90 percent if the mission text now

formal knot
#

Do you think that there will be events this week like that 4chan leak said/.

grizzled apex
#

Even if they do start this weekend, they wont be like the "leak"

#

The "Leak" says they will be like an in game ARG, but datamined text shows that they will most likely still be the same fetch quest

heavy glacier
#

the leak for the weekend story events came out a day after they said there would be new story content for the weekend missions, so wasn't rly a leak

#

they just added on that it would be an arg

#

also crossplay has been asked for for awhile so it's not crazy to include that in a "leak"

#

and the schedule for the weekend events is in the files, with the next one being this week. so they couldve just seen that too

#

not that i dnt want stuff to happen, its jsut that all the stuff in the leak that is "proven" was proven before the person posted it so it isnt rly that impressive

grizzled apex
#

Exactly

#

Its not a genuine leak

#

This is solid evidence

the community consensus is lol game about exploration? LEMME SHOW U WHAT U CAN FIND

#

and then undermines a lot of the point of exploration because there's not enough weird stuff to find 😔

glass flare
#

I remember I got all excited when NEXT came out and I found one of those terminal towers by itself (not from a mission) and it had coded text. then I went online and reddit had already discovered everything, i think someone had datamined the text. really deflated what could have been a cool moment.

uncut harness
#

Ouch

#

pretty sure the holoterminus came out in AR

glass flare
#

ah yeah maybe it was AR

slender idol
#

theres loads of wiered stuff to find. but you can only screenshot it.

#

Its pointless sharing the above screenshot as, riding a portal to those co-ordinates is not going to let you visit the artifact.

#

(unless you fly around for hours burning fuel hoping to trigger the event)

#

To make the game an actual exploration game Sean would need to make it possible to deterministically re-find giant floating eyeballs using co-ordinates that we could upload / download.

#

And then, to close the loop.

#

The game could count how many giant floating eyeballs weve visited in the achievement counter.

#

and number stations, and so on.

Isn't there some website to upload discoveries?

There is also official Atlas website of Euclid Galaxy. 🤔

nothing?

heavy glacier
#

it just seems like all of the new text that was datamined is going to be split up over several weeks

grizzled apex
#

Yep

#

It abruptly cut off in the files so I assume the ending is new

#

Or something we dont know

static urchin
#

cool

sinful saddle
#

To be honest, they must know that the community datamines things, so its very possible they did that on purpose

glass flare
#

i don't generally have a problem with datamining, but I don't know why people would intentionally read the plot of the missions if they plan to do them, because without the narrative carrot they are tedious grindfests with no payoff

yep

grizzled apex
#

Exactly

#

I just sorta tried figuring out if the text mentioned a new mechanic or something

#

i didnt read very deep. just saw a couple new things and recognized a little in the mission

idk what the story is gonna be though

there is a lot of non spoiling info in there that shows it will be spread out though

To make the game an actual exploration game Sean would need to make it possible to deterministically re-find giant floating eyeballs using co-ordinates that we could upload / download.
@slender idol or they could make navigation more involved and require thinking about the biome & terrain you're encountering rather than going, "pretty place" and then melee jetpacking about gathering vendor trash to sell

#

i don't generally have a problem with datamining, but I don't know why people would intentionally read the plot of the missions if they plan to do them, because without the narrative carrot they are tedious grindfests with no payoff
@glass flare 🤔 but if you can get most of the carrot without even doing the mission, how is it a carrot anyway.

just pop by the Nexus, grab the mission, talk to folks, then neglect to do it because really talking to them probably gave you a decent chunk of the narrative, lol

glass flare
#

i don't even do the missions tbh, the lore they give out isn't that exciting. i was just speaking in generalities

crisp fern
#

yeah i get that, it just got me thinking tho

#

i feel like you really can get the bulk of the weekend missions' gist from the description and the pre-mission talk to folks more than much you get at the destination

#

so even if the narrative was intended as a carrot, it's completely backwards, lol

glass flare
#

well, yeah that's true. i guess the actual carrot for most people is just the QS to get items

idle jay

Depends on what kind of planets you like

hybrid thistle
#

Do they look any different from eachother?

#

Like planet generation or anything like that

idle jay
#

Depending on which galaxy you choose it affects the spawn rates of certain planet types

#

The four types are Empty, Harsh, Lush, and Normal galaxies

#

Empty increases the chance for airless planets

#

Harsh increases the chance for extreme storms, aggressive fauna, sentinels

#

Lush increases the chance for lush planets

#

And normal is just the same as Euclid

hybrid thistle
#

Does it effect the people that you see in the traveller (i think thats what its called)?

idle jay
#

The anomaly?

hybrid thistle

Yea

idle jay

As far as I know you should still be able to see them

hybrid thistle

Like can you see people from Euclid if you're in a different galaxy

idle jay
#

I believe so. I’m not sure myself because I never tested it

#

Something I would recommend though is making sure you have a base in Euclid before moving to the next galaxy. That way you can always go back if you want

#

The same goes for if you want to go back to the new galaxy. Make sure you have a base there

So when in the story do I get to choose to explore or continue the quest line

strong bluff
#

Anytime you want.

#

After getting quest to travel to the Center of the Galaxy (as part of Artemis Path) to purge the simulation, you´ll get a choice to either continue with the quest, explore on your own or go to Atlas Path. But all it does is only set a mission as active. So it´s really your choice whenever whatever you want to do. Aside of first tutorial quests.

#

Which I think consist of first three star systems?

do i learn all the glyphs from the 16/16 mission?

@tired mason Yis.

Yes.

However you spell it.

Actually, I think it was "The Purge" where your learn it...

tired mason
#

So i actually have to go to the center of the galaxy to get them?

#

i just want the glyphs so i can get an exotic ship lol

#

To get the glyphs and stay in euclid, should I seek the final interface, complete the atlas path, or explore the galaxy?

so was the ending of this season of events datamined?

with some fairly interesting pieces of lroe

People are saying that 'Abyss' is like an anti-Atlas

#

The video I watch said that Abyss has been mentioned a few times all the way since Atlas Rises

#

And that it and/or possibly a new enemy type will be coming in the 3.0 update

#

I should also add that Sean said he's getting the Atlas Rises writer to come back, and he was going to write a story for one of the upcoming weekend events.

#

And I think I remember reading that there was going to be a brief pause in the weekend events prior to it.

heady wyvern
#

Last I recall, the Weekend Mission break ended, like, Friday.

Oh really?

I just knew it was gonna happen, not when.

@zinc bough I saw that in a tweet a little while back, and I feel like maybe that's not such a great selling point on the kind of writing we're going to be getting with the upcoming content. I'm only basing that on Atlas Rises, though, no idea what else they've written.

From what they said about getting the Atlas Rises writer back, its possible they abandoned it when that person left, and decided to resume it now.

he said that but it hasn't happened

He didn't say a new enemy would be in the missions . he said it would hint to a new enemy.. And the first weekend mission mentioned a threat coming

Apollo's death hit harder than Artemis' imo

They didn't die (at least Artemis) but were sort of stuck in some loop or corruption when they went through the portal to the Atlas.

anyone wanna chill in vc and talk about lore

balmy nimbus
#

Ariadne is gone.... THIS looks interesting 🙂

wanton path
#

wut?

balmy nimbus
#

Ariadne said she would go to face the problem. She did it

#

She's not in the Anomaly anymore

uncut harness
#

I think that's the cat alien on the ramp isn't it?

balmy nimbus
#

it is

hybrid pendant
#

😕

uncut harness
#

I had to speak to her for the weekend mission. Will she be back?

wanton path
#

she is now with the Abyss

#

R.I.P

uncut harness
#

How long do they stay away for??

hybrid pendant
#

she said she will go fight

#

we dont know

uncut harness
#

Oh ok.

hybrid pendant
#

its the first time she disapeared

#

soo its intriging

wanton path
#

plot twist: Ariadne is the Abyss itself

uncut harness
#

Oh. So this is new for every player?

hybrid pendant
#

yeah that she is gone

uncut harness
#

Ok. I see why you are speaking about it. I didn't think it was anything that hasn't happened before.

wanton path
#

we uncovered her, so runs away from us

hybrid pendant
#

she always was at the anomaly

wanton path
#

infiltrated

uncut harness
#

Now this makes me excited. I can only think how much this is getting old players guessing lol

#

For us new players everything is new. I did think that this has happened before lol

hybrid pendant
#

i mean even for us its intriging

#

i mean we know she wanted to go

wanton path
hybrid pendant
#

but i never thought she would fucking go from it

uncut harness
#

What is this Brolo?

wanton path
#

the lore behind NMS

uncut harness
#

Oh ok. I don't know what any of this means.

wanton path
#

as an ARG from a couple of years ago

#

where all of us participated IRL

uncut harness
#

Real life puzzles?

wanton path
#

yep

uncut harness
#

Wow. That's hecking cool.

wanton path
#

was very exciting

hybrid pendant
#

soo yeah

#

i was right

#

its conected to waking titan

wanton path
#

omg, now is when the fun begins

#

its conected to waking titan
@hybrid pendant explain please ^^

uncut harness
#

Wow there's so much stuff on that website.

wanton path
#

yes, the ARG took long

uncut harness
#

This is like a side story for No Mans Sky?

wanton path
#

the origin indeed

uncut harness
#

That is one of the coolest things I think I've seen for any game.

wanton path
#

and there're a lot of hints ingame

hasty ledge
#

u guys are all wrong... everyone knows the Atlas is controlled by the Gek...

uncut harness
#

I did the abyss story in the game because I was told the weekend missions are kind of but mostly not part of that story.

#

It did help a little bit. Although I have only done 1 weekend mission so far lol

wanton path
#

until now the weekend missions has been kinda "casual"... it's supposed to be more notorius and lore connected now

#

should be the "prequel" for future update

uncut harness
#

There's so many branches on the story that it's hard to keep up. I am slowly remembering some stuff that is happening.

wanton path
#

some "Atlas pass v3 rooms" interactions gives goosebumps to me, remembering Waking Titan

#

uhm... this is still active

hybrid pendant
#

it wasnt casual last weekend

#

ariane was mad as fuck

wanton path
#

has been Mr. Noodle with us all of this time?

slender idol
#

What is the ... least confusing way to play the quest lines :- Artemis first or Atlas path first?
The quest text in both lines seemingly ignores the fact that you've encountered the atlas in the other, or Im just doing things out of sequence again...
Is there a lest-jarring way of playing this games storyline.

#

I was paying extra special attention this time, and I Still don't know what the initiating event is that is calling me to find the first atlas interface on the atlas path.

covert wing
#

No

wanton path
#

🤔

strong bluff
#

I would play Artemis first.

#

But it doesn´t matter.

#

Also Atlas path requires you to grind Milestones to progress.

#

Artemis path not.

#

And also - first quests of Artemis path are mandatory as tutorial quests and without them majority of the game features will be locked to you.

#

So there you have your answer. sean2

latent oracle
#

I enjoyed the story line

#

At least until the best character in the game died

slender idol
#

who died?

latent oracle
#

Well, more like "died"

#

But Apollo

slender idol
#

no ones alive, its all a simulation

latent oracle
#

That's what they want you think

slender idol
#

or, there are zero hints in the storyline that we are outside the atlas. indeed its explicit that we are in an atlas. and we meet an atlas simulation. and run a diagnostic on it. And we are its creator.

#

so our altas is, itself, doubtless, just a simulation being used to diagnose an issue with an outer atlas

strong bluff
#

I liked the story too. Though after finishing the Artemis Path, the story continues (sort of). If you make Rememberance (which also requires completing ATlas path to get blueprints for Heart of the STar and all Atlas seeds which you need for it) and then in space stations you can access Atlas´s memories.

#

Sad part of story.

#

Well, you access part of story outside of Atlas by the mentioned Rememberance.

#

Also you need Atlas Key card level 3 for that.

#

(Or Atlas pass?).

latent oracle
#

Atlas's pass, yea

#

Ffs autocorrect

#

Atlas pass*

strong bluff
#

Also one thing I wonder - after the Purge it seems that Nada and Pollo in Anomaly forgot about everything what happened. (Or don´t care anymore.)

slender idol
#

yes. and you interact with inner atlas simulations. which are the same as your own atlas. implying there is an outer atlas with you looking on as its creator.

#

well, an outer you

strong bluff
#

Because when I entered Anomaly again ("Visit your old friends" Anomaly quest), they started welcoming me as somebody new and when I tried to told them truth, they didn´t care.

#

So even Anomaly, besides of being between space and time, is influenced by Galaxy purge? 🤔

#

And yes. I wonder in the space stations where we access Atlas´s memories through Rememberance in Atlas pass 3 rooms, I wonder if the computer we see there if it´s how Atlas looks outside of simulation. 🤔

slender idol
#

why not? its a simulation of the atlas

strong bluff
#

@slender idol So protagonist is Atlas´s creator? Or Atlas tried to simulate his creator by making a Traveller entity similar to him? 🤔

grizzled apex
#

@hybrid pendant
Ph ariadne will be back soon no worry

strong bluff
#

Because in one memories, when the creator abandons Atlas, he asks it if it wants to die and Atlas responds that no, if it can remember its creator.

grizzled apex
#

Itll take a few weekend missions though

slender idol
#

and, presumably, in that simulation, which contains your own life in it. which you see played out. including the very events of visiting an atlas super computer. You would see your simulated self visiting a simulated atlas

#

So, if the n+1 atlas looks like the atlas you are at

#

then the n-1 must too

grizzled apex
#

And then there is a big story about how ariadne isnt actually back. They died and were replaced by a copy made by the abyss I belive.

strong bluff
#

Also on Wiki, I have found that player isn´t Traveller entity, but is instead Anomaly race, which is supposed to look like humans and thus Atlas´s creator.

#

Unless they just made it as default skin for player character.

latent oracle
#

Next update should allow you to upload a pic of yourself, and make a model out of it, cause meta or something

slender idol
#

@strong bluff the core paradox of the games events is, each simulated iteration of you has to discover the atlas complex. Built however the altas contrived to have it built. But its always you that starts the {{hello world}} diagnostic. and then watches the whole world run from start to finish.

#

and, in that simulation, your character is going to encounter an atlas. which they will run a diagnostic on. and that atlas will run a simulation of all of creation from start to finish, including your own life

#

and so, in turn, in that simulation.....

strong bluff
#

So basically Atlas now does the simulation in order to stay in contact with its creator, because it feels lonely? (Even though simulated one...) 🤔

latent oracle
#

The continued simulations could be why there's issues.

strong bluff
#

Or it´s just broken and in loop due it dying?

slender idol
#

So, every atlas simulation, n, contains an atlas simulation, n+1 which a simulation of you runs.

#

and we are clearly in an atlas simulation. Which means there is a simulation n-1 behind us.

latent oracle
#

Can't accurately simulate itself, so each iteration becomes more and more flawed.

strong bluff
#

What is the first and the ultimate simulation though then? 🤔

slender idol
#

who knows.

#

the increasing drift from the original problem might be the cause of the boundry failures.

#

the infinite recursion

#

the strange confusion the quest text alludes to when you are running the simulations implies that maybe your personality (as the creator) is bleeding between atlas simulations, so the boundry failure isnt horizontal, its vertical between the n and n-1 atlas simulations.

hybrid pendant
#

@grizzled apex why u say she will be back

grizzled apex
#

Oh I've read the weekend mission story

#

Its.... interesting

#

Definitely better than before

hybrid pendant
#

the one we had the week before?.

#

the weekend we had last week?.

uncut harness
#

hey question

#

can Black holes show up as space encounters?

#

might be my mods, so thanks for that Exo!

strong bluff
#

I think they can.

sullen drift
#

Yeah they can.

uncut harness
#

thats cool

strong bluff
#

Rogue black holes. And also teleporters, which teleport you between systems, but without damaging you.

steel depot
#

You can pick the type of galaxy you go to after quest line?

strong bluff
#

Yep. At end of Artemis Path.

#

Generally they are normal (like Euclid), Harsh (more planets with extreme conditions), Anomalous/Exhausted (more empty and exotic planets) and Lush (more lush planets).

#

Then you get teleported to the closest Galaxy of the type of your choice.

#

That´s why Wiki is useful if you plan to travel to certain Galaxy.

steel depot
#

Luuuuuuuuushhhhhhhhhhhh

#

Litty

ocean prawn
#

Is it just me or are the sentinels really annoying to get resources out of? Ive killed like 4 and got 0 pugneum

strong bluff
#

Seems like a bug.

#

I got pugneum for every killed one.

#

!HG

#

As you get pugneum from destroyed sentinels.

#

Or you need to destroy their crates.

#

As when you kill sentinel, a barrel falls from him.

ocean prawn
#

yeah, I never get any

strong bluff
#

Which you need to destroy with mining laser or gun to get an ammo and shield recharge from it.

ocean prawn
#

i ended up resorting to uninstalling upgrades that give me pugneum

strong bluff
#

Nice.

#

I think you can also sometimes buy pugneum from trade terminals.

ocean prawn
#

I just want a weapons terminal haha

#

I haaaate killing sentinels coz theyre so annoying to kill and i dont get enough rewards to make me wanna do it haha

#

im glad you can buy it coz im so over sentinels

strong bluff
#

Use Plasma grenades (but don´t blow up yourself), that shotgun mode of multitool (forgot its name) and that laser charging weapon for the Walker.

steel depot
#

I horde puneum for nanites. Generally I find pilots selling it.

strong bluff
#

You can also get Biological horror eggs for both tons of nanite and units .

#

But yep, I do same thing.

steel depot
#

Yeah the transfer rates for pugnam and platinum suck. I still passively hoard them bc why not

slender idol
#

Do barrels not drop from them?

violet narwhal
#

Made a number of minor text fixes. I think must be a general thing rather than specific to this latest update. They often fix/add stuff like that without mentioning it, and the only change I see in this experimental is adding a line UI_CHAT_COMMAND_NO_JOIN <TITLE>Cannot join %NAME% without being friends<>

#

Although I guess they could be non-English fixes. I don't look for those.

uncut harness
#

The 4chan post may actually be real

#

hmmm

#

can someone share that with me?

#

I never did get to see it

chilly drift
#

What if the 4chan leaker is actually part of a new arg ?

uncut harness
#

Well I watched MZKs new video and he said this leaker is the same leaker that leaked info about Elite Dangerous... So this is the same guy that made a list of leaks for Frontier's games

#

If this really is the same leaker he's been right alot

He was right about 3 DLC for Jurassic World Evolution
1 DLC for Planet Coaster
And he info about Jurassic World Evolution 2, Elite Dangerous, Planet Coaster 2, and a Warhammer RTS game

chilly drift
#

But they are Anonymous post, how can they be so sure it's the same ?

uncut harness
#

Their account links to the same leaks

chilly drift
#

okok

uncut harness
#

Yea so if this is true then I'm confident the leak is true cause this person has got alot right... Even some leaks for star citizen

ocean juniper
#

apparentally people are getting images of polo from convertion

chilly drift
#

I think they are true too, I was wondering if it was part of the ARG but if he linked another games I don't think it's probable

ocean juniper
#

thats what procederal traveller said on his server

chilly drift
#

hmmm
