The question tho is when is the big update.. The leaker said mid June right?
the anniversery update i think
mid-June just a small thing to hint to the big update in August
god knows
Yea that's what I was thinking too
his first post was talking about a small update that will have an ARG
I think
hold up
And we're mid-June, maybe the Ariadne thing is related
well these weekend missions are for sure importent in some way
Let's see Friday what will happen
I think that atleast 2 to 3 traveller will go missing
apparently there are new datamined stuff?
there is?
Like the two that are close to Ares and the Amphibian
Yes
when was this @tall carbon ?
@tall carbon source ?
A new 4chan post?
@twilit hare did you notice that when you click spoiler image it's a picture of Polo lol
"The Dialogue for the next multiple weeks of weekend missions has been datamined."
Yea I read the new story in the files
OH
I read some of it.. Not all
Do you have a link ? I didnt see them
where did you read it ?
can anybody give a leak?
I'm wondering the same thing
a link
ah ok
@ocean juniper they're bigger than simple fetch quests
Np dude
thanks
darn this is some good writing
Ohh
so in the text Ariadne was supposed to be missing
Yeah, as I suspect Gemini could be missing
Alot of youtubers seem to be thinking something big is happening
"the Abyss is not what it seems"
whoa, wild
Very interesting
indeed
Where can I see that 4chan leak that is a reply to the leaker being right?
But I really dunno how this could point to a variation update
it most likely go towards a combat update
true
I love being a Gemini 😉
this hex code thing does mke the leaker a bit more creditable as if it could be disproven then his creditablility would drop
Where is the 4chan link for that?
Where is that?
missing disturbance - "/v/ - Video Games" is 4chan's imageboard dedicated to the discussion of PC and console video games.
So I count about 14 remaining week-end mission to complete de story
Born too late to explore the world, born too early to explore the universe, born in the right time to watch MZK ;) Get at my Twitter - https://twitter.com/MZ...
so 14 weeks 🤔
Thank you BruceCooper.
🚀

The leaks... What could they mean????
The spoiler image on the 4chan post is a Gek lol.
I don't know what to think of this.
Yeah, I noticed that too
I've been hearing that the summer update will be combat and variation will be after next gen consoles come out.

The hex code isn't doing anything for me though. It just decodes in to a broken string.
This will be so disappointing if we don't have a variation update, I think I'll try to come back at 1.0 and see how it was before
I don't even know what I'm doing with this. I'll just leave it to the people that do lol
@zinc bough I could see that.. Good way to celebrate the launch
We'll see in August, but with the text mission it points more for a combat update
unless the Abyss will introduce to a new universe with unlimited variation
Because I don't understand if we have to help him survive or fight it
I play on PS4, I can only Either be on Exo Mech or 1.0
Hello, i’m at the atlas and it gives me a choice of rejecting the atlas or resetting the Galaxy. Which should i choose?
I hope a proc gen over haul isn't just exclusive to next gen
I don't want to expose my fun allergy.... but...
I don't think it will be, but this mean Proc-Gen overhaul it will be more likely to be end of 2020
I really don't see how or why they would push a procgen overhaul 6 months before new tech was released?
After all they said that we'll have multiple update small and large
Let's see what is small and what is large
How does Hello Games continue to fund this game?
no clue
Maybe proc gen isn't that expensive
Well NMS has selled for millions
🤷♂️
and with Xbox, W10, ... new releases they gain new ressource
and soon we'll get the last campfire
Oh yeah the gamepass coin
Yea it has sold really well.. Oh and the new game.. That might be helping
if a modder can make proc gen 3x better without really hindering proformence, then why cant hello games?
Either for CrossPlatform or Beyond, it will cost the same thing, they only need to paid their employees
@ocean juniper cause the modders are doing it on PC... Can current consoles handle it?
The thing that can change is the time allocated for an update, but at the end of the month they spend the same money
IMO I see overhauls like this as restrained by the "weakest link", meaning that base ps4/xbox consoles very well could be restricting the variation that we all really want (including HG). I could see this coming to new hardware removing that weakest link finally, and unfortunately making base consoles no longer supported....
Also, crazy variation mods do impact performance. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
fair
Remember that MS have said every series X game has to run on xbone for like quite a while... so any major overhaul would need to run on current gen anyway
@tall carbon yea that could be true. But I'm sure base systems will still have cross play.. In fact they may just be very limited compared to next gen
Yeah, that could be true as well. Maybe previous gen will just have a scaled back experience similar to PSVR or something
and when I say scaled back, I mean compared to a release that is totally based on fantasy so far... lol
It would have to be majorly scaled back if they wanted to keep crossplay so that the planets were all the same for everyone still
Right it's all just fun speculation for now.. But think about Elite Dangerous.. It's getting a massive overhaul for next gen as well
Can't imagine base console users being too happy when their resolution gets tanked and settings dropped to meet a new variation uodate haha
Of course, all speculation
I'd imagine they could keep a % of the game running smooth enough for current consoles with a new procgen update
@meager stag 720p 30fps lmao
Cinematic
Variation doesn't mean crazy structure that will impact performance, it juste could be a little modification in the base assets or gen formula
Idk, I think the reason the proc gen hasn't been set free is because of hardware limitations
Tbf the only reason variety mods impact performance is the density of assets they have
The only reason at ALL I speculate on anything variation related is because of that damn superformula rumor/hype that I just CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT
@chilly drift yea but the 4chan post said more than variation.. It mentioned orbiting planets. A physical star
But I do agree that its good for them to wait for the right time
@tall carbon whats the rumour?
@tall carbon it could be true.. With an expired patent I'm sure hello games were eager to jump on it
Just that the patent for the formula expired in May
@uncut harness Maybe it doesnt affect performance, we need to think that VR has to run it too so they will take precautions about performance, and let's not believe 100% the leaks
@chilly drift who knows. Maybe current gen can handle it just fine.. I mean the game isn't that taxing. Have you seen games like God of War or The Last of Us II?
OFC, I platined GoW :p
We'll see anyway soon ^^
But now that I think of it, GoW and TLOU are exclusive to PS4 thus the developing team can focus on performance issue and resolving bug more easily and efficiently whereas HG that has to manage 3 different platforms and GOG, Steam and W10
Ok then take Red Dead Redemption II into account then haha .. Super complex and very demanding.... I'd like to say No Man's Sky is more on the basic side of things like Minecraft
Is there much to other galaxies?
I have stayed in Euclid for so long, I am starting to wonder if I should explore another.
Other galaxies just have higher odds of a certain type of planet
Like some have more lush planets, some have more toxic erc
Etc*
The biomes aren't different, it's just how often they appear
I am starting to be bored. Can't find anything interesting to do.
Other galaxies are same in term of things to do. Only center has different color. But there are four types of galaxies, each one can have more chance for certain planets
Why do others flock to Eissentam?
I mean, you end up with planets that are basically all the same.
because they like to be bored out of their minds
I guess I can start with helping other players then. Got plenty of resources.
Why do others flock to Eissentam?
@indigo smelt Primarily because it's the first Lush galaxy, also because other people are already there.
seriously, galaxies need to have somthing to make them unique and have people say, my home is in galaxy X because such and such reason
This is true.
That should be a part of a variation update.
I am wondering if adding new materials that only spawn in some galaxies is a good idea or not.
New materials would have to be optional, as to not break gameplay. I guess adding new upgrade modules to tech is the way to do it. Not the RNG ones, but the regular ones.
i wouldn't mind that
take ancient galaxies for example. they could have HUGE, huge ancient skeletons.
that can't be collected.
You can have new landscapes or certain features, but there needs to be a reason to go there.
i'd be very happy if more exploration features are added asap
If other galaxies are fleshed out, HG could reset galaxies instead, which is far less of a pain for everyone involved. Those who setup shop in Eissentam have bases in Euclid as well probably.
Having some kind of unique ancient skeleton material could be cool for a living ship shield upgrade. It bothers me that the living ship doesn't even have regular upgrades. I might have to mature the upgrades, but really HG needs to reduce that timer.
I doubt HG would do without living ship timers. I just don't feel like I earned my living ship, just waited for it.
I don't care too much if new terrain/ structures are practical or not
as long as they look cool I'm fine with it
take ancient galaxies for example. they could have HUGE, huge ancient skeletons.
@prime inlet like this
even if it doesn't do anything
I think Exploration nanites need a vast increase to make exploration a bit more viable as a way to gain nanites.
true
Hey guys, new to the chat and the game and this may not be in the right chat but is there any talk of true clans in the game? I'd love to see support for building a common structure everyone in a clan could teleport to and use.
no clans
^^See Explore Together for the closest thing to a clan.
And ships multiple players could be in, like a pilot and gunner etc
No multi-crewed ships.
would be cool but it's not in the game
tbh multiplayer really doesn't need to be in the game
I know it's not there. Wasnt sure how active hello games was with the community and if that was something being discussed
Multiplayer is an add-on.
I don't want PvP. PvP is not going to be fair.
but it hasn't been confirmed
No pvp
it is in the game but it's extremely limited
the game isn't made for pvp
by that I mean you can shoot other players but that's about it
PvP is limited and optional yes, but there is no formal system, no.
it's mostly a singleplayer game
Just officially exploring together. Haulers are already huge. Why couldn't multiple players be on a ship like that?
And you have bases, if you are online your friends can already come to them. Why not make it official for when you're offline? Doesn't seem like a big change
I spent hours upgrading my living ship. The way I see it, I am either going to wreck everyone or be wrecked by a min-maxer who has zero inventory slots.
And you have bases, if you are online your friends can already come to them. Why not make it official for when you're offline? Doesn't seem like a big change
@foggy mortar by that do you mean bases should be visible when playing offline?
Visable and fully usable
Not a good idea, don't want to be griefed because someone happens to know my location.
A clan mate being able to treat your base like their own
Not every player. Just clanmates
You can use storage boxes. Storage boxes are linked to players, like Ender Chests. You can only open your inventory, not theirs.
And the inventory transfers between them
Like if you wanted to access your items from storage container 1 you could build another storage container 1 and access it
As Jappards said, like an ender chest
I do wish there was some kind of formal trading system, that way I can just go to the anomaly and put all materials I don't use into it. New players can make good use of me making all materials worthless.
Crashing the market, multiplayer style.
ancient galaxies should have like ancient gateways, and far less star systems than others, a system would be 20, 30k away from the next cluster of systems
which can be accessed by anyone who needs it
Eh, if you decide to sell stacks for a single unit, thats the same thing as donating.
true but I mean like a storage box
where you can store unwanted items for anyone to access
TBH, I am curious what a player economy in NMS would look like. There is a type of MMO economy I don't like though, and that is the type where both selling an item and buying an item just aren't worthwhile because selling is too cheap to make a profit and buying is too expensive to be accessible for anyone but the most dedicated of players.
I hate chat spamming MMO economies.
riven trading no thanks
lmao
lol
wts [kuva bramma] riven 1200p
also I don't mean the whole system
just the trading interface
trade chat in nms is my worst nightmare
If a trading system is done right, you only have to put the items into the market, set the price, and wait. You can just log off while you are waiting and let the system do it's job. I loved the black desert trading system, but the inventory system of that game was a nightmare.
oh
I get what you mean
Ye that's much better
do you mean a bit like the galactic trade network but the stock is decided by players?
and you could choose what the buy price would be
No, you can choose the buying price.
ye that's what I said
you choose the price for people buying your item
actually nvm I'm probably still getting it wrong
Yeah. Now, what items would actually be worth anything on this player market. I am thinking only curiosities have much in the way of value. How much would players pay for atlas passes?
Currency doesn't matter too much in this regard. Money is just indirect bartering, the prices adjust according to inflation.
QS, not a fan of that being tradable.
true
I'm just really broke tbh
in terms of quicksilver
but I have billions of units
Inflation is going to be weird. If it's units, well, Indium farms are going to absolutely smack down the currency. Units aren't going to be worth much. However, things like Copper and Mag Ferrite are going to pretty much worthless as well, since they are so common. Two forces, its the matter of who wins.
been busy on the other channel
yeah, i'd prefer tracker sites for trading stuff
you'd put the stuff you want to sell in a specific sotrage container
tick the for sale box, and bam, it automatically shows up on the tracker site
could even have your npcs complete trades for you
😄
I always figured that the voice in your suit was Telamon itself.
Because didn't it get zapped into your suit when you woke up?
I may be misremembering, it's been a while.
It says that i have to use teleporter but i cant so im stuck and cant progress in the game
is it worth doing the atlas path
@violet thistle If you complete it then you unlock the ability to see which systems have black holes. Also depending on what choice you make (you'll know when. Don't want to get too gar into it) you unlock the blueprint for an item that increases your health
ah ok then
Aka travelling to new galaxy
i already finished that quest
i still havent fully finished repairing my stuff yet 😦
so do i just make a new star?
Yeah. That's how you get the health boost blueprint
I've got a star seed now
There we go. That's the one
does it boost my life support or my shields
Neither
The thing with the plus signs
That goes down after either your shield or life support is depleted
I never upgraded them since they are barely needed
How do I do the purge mission?
It says that i have to use teleporter but i cant so im stuck and cant progress in the game
@haughty wyvern just warp to the system
What do you get from completing the atlas path?
depending on what was your final answer, 1 or 2 things
the ability to see black hole systems marked on galactic map, and Star Seed bp
How do I do the purge mission?
@uncut harness exactly what do you need help with
extra health point for your exosuit
Oh nice
its a tech upgrade basically
How to Warp to system
go to space, open quick menu, open galaxy map, select another system, hold warp button
In reference to the portal issue, mine came online when i visited a space station in another system that i warped to, i always go straight to the space station as soon as i warp there and then i can teleport to each
and then i make a small base on the cutest planet or most useful planet in the system
Where do the travellers come from ?
created by the Atlas with a scan of it's Creators mind
You character is the last of these created
what t f is this?
this will guide you to the portals, traveler
Main Story Quest lock
ok.
Aww
Unfortunate
Now I gotta avoid the chat
Wait, is it the story or just the missions?
@zinc bough story I think
The missions are reportedly just fetch quests so not much to spoil there, lmao
Waking Titan just seems like a completely different story than NMS and is only connected by cheaply using names and references.
Anyone wanna prove to me why I'm wrong?
Like, it's not bad, but it sounds like any old ARG just with NMS references effortlessly slapped into it.
I like the idea of NMS being a simulation in a simulation though, since apparently Waking Titan suggests that and how Telamon suggests it in-game.
Still though, it feels too disconnected from the game itself to actually seem researching imo.
what would happen if I will refuse Apollo to help with sentinels? (I accepted anyway, but I worry about fighting tons of sentinels ) xD
well all it would do is disable the mission untill you want to do it nms has a knack for doing it
no
you just have to collect like 200 pungeum
but make sure you multitool has a boltcaster with at least 2 upgrades
s class would be good
s class upgrades not multitool
how that pungeum I have to get? by attacking sentinels? or I can trade for it? I Think I have some
I need bigger multitool, because no space for upgrade
@still saddle
hmm
ok
what multitool u got
the starter one?
probly buy a bigger one
there only like 10 k any way
but if your not up to it go to a vykeens system and buy pungeum
no, bit bigger... but just 8 slots
I've been hopping through black holes for several hours now, but really, I don't seem to be getting any closer to the galactic core. is there a faster way to do this?
The thing that HG seems to lack with this game, is a design document, or even just principle, where they lay out the different gameplay activitites and goals, and the number of hours of gameplay they intend them to take.
Because they do feel out of whack. Getting to the core can take a long time.
There are basically 3 ways there:
- join a multiplayer game of someone who is much closer
- use black holes. and the black holed tend to jump you 10kly each time
- just warp it. A maxed out explorer can do ~3kly jumps, given the variability of blackholes and the fact you need to path to them, this might be faster.
Personally my closest game is about 500kly from euclid core because everytime i reach a system with a 3* econ and/or lush planets I stop and look around for interesting ships, poke around the planet(s) a bit
If you really want to cheese it, the game has a long standing ... feature where you can claim pre-generated base computers in systems with an active portal. And people have published a list of systems very close to the core with base computers that can be claimed.
you need to play offline because other players have claimed and uploaded bases there and you dont want that to prevent you claiming your own base.
I thought that Hello Games made that no longer possible.
the wiki at least says that it isn't possible
it clearly shouldn't be possible.
If you're in euclid still, I can give you a lift. I got a base 3k from core.
given that HG have prevented placing base computers, "remembering" station portals or player stations teleporters
friend's stations can be remembered
I'm able to get into a system I've only visited via joining a game
@latent oracle thx, but I'm good. Reading more about it it sounds kinda pointless.
Has the weekend mission started yet?
@fervent eagle Prolly not, it's usually starts in 8-9 hours from now on
oof, was hoping it was out so I could do it before work lol
has anyone seen screenshots about the supposed "environment" update?
no, where are those
Perhaps they're asking if the screenshots exist?
What update?
Is there some summer update incoming (it was mentioned somewhere)? I thought that Crossplay one was summer one. 🤔
Probably
Damn nobody?
Eissentaum yes. It's just more lush planets, not that exciting
Now what would be exciting is allowing lush biomes to mix more with other biomes, allowing a desert planet to have a lush oasis, or a lush planet having snow and areas that are laden with it. That'd make eissentaum special
Yeah I've been eyeballing that I really want to go there
But I mean if there was a Galaxy that had a way higher chance of glitch planets..... I probably pick that one
Probably but not sure, ask in nms channel
Thanks zug
Hopefully someone can help
@slender geode what screenshots?
Lol nah everyone just defers like I haven't checked the wiki
Just depends on who's in the chat atm
I just remember seeing it as a possibility from a vid I watched, they said they found it online
👀
Huh, Some of those names I eh.. don't quite recognize.. If not most except Artemis.
HOLY SHIT
|| Hildebrand could be shortened to Hirk, according to wiki ||
|| Could Hirk be a Traveller in the past? ||
where is this happening? weekend mission?
yes
oh..
oh crap
according to wiki
The wiki is full of nonsense, speculation, and roleplay stuff, not adequately marked. Neither of those two names are anywhere else in the in-game text, apart from ||HEY LAZARUSas one of the death milestones, which I doubt is even related. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_of_Bethany||
And the other two names are also only mentioned in the recently-added stuff for these missions.
Have we heard of asteria?
Out of any traveller we know of, the name and title most fits us
just another greek mythology name really
No, none of those 4 names are mentioned anywhere other than the new mission stuff (other than the thing I mentioned). They may have been mentioned in WT, I don't know about that.
i keep getting kicked by them lol
Good call Moo. It was a quick google search from my phone while I was at the store lol
cool. so new characters to learn about
@tall carbon 🙂
its interesting those names
maybe those names are the one from the geks that are praising the abysss?
lol null is mad i just condemned him 
Watch it, Traveller.
Can someone post the link to the datamined weekend mission dialogue?
I can't play these fucking tedious missions anymore
I went to the Nexus earlier and there was a "?" symbol and some weird mission showing. I decided to do the weekend mission first, and come back for this "?" mission - but now that I've done that it's gone! Anyone else see that? What was it?!
It's an encrypted mission. Limited time, grants greater rewards, but you can't see the mission's requirements until you take it. @bitter remnant
I've not seen those before. Are they new?
They've been in the game since the Nexus was added.
You must've been unlucky with em.
Oh weird. I guess I've just never been on at the right time... Or been really unobservant.
Probably just unobservant. 😆
👍
Thanks
So, im at the point where i decide artemis’ fate at nada’s terminal. Im curious though, what did everyone else choose?
Kept them 'alive'
Yo what is that big ass jelly fish, its beautiful
I mean the jelly fish that i just saw on the subreddit with absolutely 0 explanation lol, Its goorgeous
lol show me a link
is it blue and glowing
lol we sent the same link
😄
but yeah that gorgeous being
they sometimes appear in space
and they also appear in the quest for the living ship 🙂
That's photoshopped
Thats gorgeous holy shit im excited to see one
honestly its a jellyfish in space i wasnt expecting even that
Would be cool if they flew, and could go in atmosphere
Ok so i have a thing about massive creatures in games and this is tickling the perfect spot
so like massive creatures like in the Subnautica games, anything like that
aah 😄 yea
Shadow of the Collosus type shit lol
i love the massive whales in Subnautica
ohhhhh dont even get me started
<,< not so much the evil once thou that wanna murder me and cause me to piss myself
THE. GHOST. LEVIATHANS AAAAA
lool
so beautiful, so murderous
OOOOH NOOOO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
xD
hahha that feeling is nice thou
or hte squid looking once
lmao the first time i swam into the abyss
and then a like 4 ghost leviathans got me all at once
xD
Crab Squids?
EMP blast boys? lol
i do like riding around in my submarine thou
theyre my favourite, the sound design for them is phenomenal
i like the whale noices
the like deep rumble and then the EMP blast and then the clicks and then all your electricity turning off aaa perfect
yeah lol so the big jelly fish in space is pwetty af
I want himb as pet
oh yea
I want himb to crush my enemies
We need good variation/exploration as well tbh
yes we need better variation to find cuter pets lol
u know the Fish tank and <,< the Terarium u can build
with the blobby looking creature jumping around xD
do i need to pen in my living bike and will he still love me after i leave
i have an island to farm my bipedal chicken hammers now but like i got a feeling its not gonna work how i expect it to
a lot of them spawn on that island though so ill just plop a feeder down
i did make a farm once
oh yea
now that you are here i should build that office building for my Employees
<,<
xD
yes
i wanna build like a Square boring highrise for them to live in
so they can have their lattes and be hipsters
ooo a highrise would be cute
lol yea like with their stores in each floor reacheble with stairs
mine just kinda live in my house where they work, and yeah omg that would be cool
im living for all of that
thats fair haha
im super sad that my scientist wiped the intelligence of his beacon child though
dammit
im like lowkey mourning it, i made it a blanket to protect it
well it might mean now that have to redecorate alot of my base xD sinse im moving all of htem
but i might keep their stations at my base just to keep the design
yeah maybe, im making like little caravans for them
i used to do that to but with Cuboid rooms u can put alot of htem i nthe same room
so i figured it would be to much work 😛
to give em a room each
but now im on that idea xd
i think maybe like a rectangular room with the station in the front end and the bed and desk in the back end
ooo lemme see when youve done haha
im gonna make the exterior rusty and damaged so it looks like their are living in the ghetto xD
or no
xD
i immediately got emotionally attached so like i was extra with it
lol
or atleast i plan to be
its cool to have the RP
yee thats my usual go to
i wish there was more to them now thou <,< cus now i never have to interact with them
awe man
okay but me though
i might need to start xD a new save at some point to do bunch of stuff again 😄
hopefully more stuff will be given for them in updates at some point
Im gonna have to head off to bed its almost half 3 AM
gn
Goodnight
Hey, don't specialists give daily rewards after you finish their quests...?
@fringe turtle Yes, you will need 16 Tall Eggs
Prepare some sweetened compost before, you'll need it to tame those big 2-legged animals
the super-chickens are FAST
i just cant lure a single tall creature 😦
Maybe because they aren't single, and are loyal to their significant other
this community 😄
what's the weekend mission item needed?
hmmm
Bait sweetened compost
Someone built an autofeeder and harvester base near where the tall creatures spawn
I've got not just eggs but a lot of fresh milk too
Now I can make cakes
Is there a waypoint on the planet?
I can spare some eggs, but not sure if it will work after you have used the portal
If the portal interference disables me joining you on the even planet
i think you can join someone else's game, even if they are portal travelling
That´s a waste though. Unless cook in Anomaly loves them cooked.
whats the difference in the end of the apollo/atlas storyline choices other than going to a different galaxy
There are two story lines, one is the Atlas Path, the other involves Artemis. Which are you referring to specifically, or both?
the one involving artemis
When you follow the story involved with Artemis, the end will let you pick another galaxy. The Atlas Path does not
With the Artemis story (the Purge), you can refuse the Atlas and you'll be teleported to a random planet, similar to how you started the game.
If you decide to Reset the simulation, you can pick the next galaxy, where you will have damaged tech in ship main inventory, exosuit and multitool tech
Apart from damaged stuff, you do not really lose anything
It does help to come prepared with resources to repair, as well as possibly reducing tech in ships main inventory
Whichever choice you make, you do get rewarded the same
Not that I know
ok thank u
Somewhat outdated, but still good info for Artemis:
https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Storyline
regarding to the end (The Purge)
https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/The_Purge
https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/New_Beginnings
As for the Atlas Path:
https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/The_Atlas_Path
@uncut harness It is suggested to finish the Atlas path before finishing Artemis, to avoid any possible issues.
Also make sure that if you decide to go to a new galaxy, to have a base location in the current galaxy, and make a new base in the one you go to. This to avoid having to go through trouble in case you wish to switch galaxy again
is that where u get all 12 atlas' and get the star seed
Atlas Path is where you gather all the Atlas seeds, which will be a required part for crafting the reward you receive for finishing Artemis story
okay
The choice at the end of the Atlas path is not a guaranteed reward (Star Seed), depending on the choice you make.
wait do you need all seeds
To finish Atlas, yes you need all recipes to craft the last seed in line.
Only the last seed is required (Heart of the Sun)
okay cool
Heart of the Sun is also required to craft the reward from Artemis (Remembrance)
alright so im basically ready to finish
Good luck ;-)
thank you
Where did Ariadne go?
They want to 1v1 the abyss, bro
so finish the Atlas before other primary missions?
Already tried using the portal to an Atlas Interface to trigger the Atlas path, but still did not fix it
I accidentally refused atlas on the first time I visited it what do I do now?
@bold hamlet You should be able to go back to Polo and ask for another Atlas station location.
Ok thank you also what quest is for the alien ship?
You have to buy a Void Egg on the Anomaly from the quicksilver merchant (to the right of the Nexus). It will cost you 3200 qs.
Once you have it in your inventory, jump in your ship and activate your pulse drive. Within sixty seconds you'll get a message about an alien melody or anomaly, at which point you drop out of pulse. Once you talk to the alien, it starts the quest.
Takes a couple of days to complete.
*This is assuming you meant Living Ship when you said Alien Ship 🙂
yea....no qs missions or egg for me
Hey guys, just want to make sure I don’t screw up big time. In the final story mission if I travel to another galaxy can I return to Euclid?
@hexed moss || yes, just make a base comp before you go back ||
|| omce youvet traveled to a different halaxy, all the teleporters let you know which halaxy a station or base is in ||
This keyboard
Lol
Ah okay thanks ! I read online you couldn’t but that was probably way in 2017 or 18
Used to not be able to i think
awesome!
But that was scrapped for obv reasons lol
I got the game when it came on game pass
Haven’t stopped playing and recruited about 10 friends 🤣
Here's a tip
If someone is on a different gamemode, you can't see anything they've done or any base they've uploaded
If I reach the center of the galaxy, did I beat the game? Or do I have to meet the atlas again and actually choose reset again to beat it?
Anyone have spare void eggs?
@little perch i think you have to finish storyline. But reaching centre is o e possibility to finish one of Artemis quests.
But i'm not sure. Just my feeling
If I reach the center of the galaxy, did I beat the game? Or do I have to meet the atlas again and actually choose reset again to beat it?
@little perch reaching the centre of the galaxy isn't your end goal here, there's no "beating the game" - it's a sandbox game after all
many people play this game and never felt the need to switch galaxies.
and besides, Artemis path can only be done once per save.
so what happens when you reach the center, is it still just a random teleport?
not actually random it seems, but you get dropped on a planet in the galaxy you jumped too
I hope we will ever know who created the simulator for the simulation
in the story
the ARG basically already laid out who created Atlas
Not necessarily. It depends on how you interpret it
WT was an origin story for the 1.3 update really. The “who created atlas” thing is more suited to remembrance (which is what these guys are speaking about I believe)
you're thinking of season two of WT, i was referring more to season 1, the precursor for Atlas Rises
Anyone have a spare void egg?
season 1 was centered around the idea, in part, that Atlas was created to test the theory that the universe is just a simulation
I was just saying these guys are stating they don’t know who created the first atlas (remembrance), not our humanity who made another extension of it in the ARG. I think we agree with how the arg works story-wise
What are these 4 galaxies?
Eissentam, the lush galaxy
Calypso, the aggro galaxy
And 2 more which I don't really remember
You will move out of Euclid
Will I lose anything?
Your bases
Well I can stand to lose my bases.
I was planning on moving them anyway.
Do I keep my freighter?
I keep my items, ships?
Yes tho the materials used for your bases won't return to your salvage capsule
Best practice is to delete your bases and then move out if you want to keep all the mats
That's okay with me since I didn't spend much time on my base anyways.
Now just to make it clear: The only thing I lose is my bases, correct? I keep my items, ships, technology, and freighter?
@limpid locust
(including my glyphs)
I just checked the wiki and it said I'd be able to teleport back to my bases using the anomaly so I'm going to reset the universe and choose a lush galaxy
So do we think the leak is real?
What's the community thing this weekend?
Get tall eggs
Yeah it's eggs from those tall strider things
People have set up farms on the planet so it should be pretty fast
How do you even get 'em. I havent' logged in in a few weeks.
You get given bait to give the local wildlife
You interact with them when theyre happy with you
Ah so this doesn't sound too grindy.
Where do I find all the atlas seeds I think my mission is glitched
I’ve been doing the quest
Yeah I have i figured it out thanks, it takes so long though lol
@hasty wind The weekend event involves getting Tall Creature Eggs. Feed things with Sweet Compost.
also it's on an extreme weather planet (think it was toxic or radiation, forget which)
Soooo, I have just had the mission change to ‘head to the centre on the galaxy’ just as a gauge how far am I in here! Quiet far or still getting started 🙈
What's the name of the quest? @regal cove
I have come off now but I think it was to reset the system? Or similar! Sorry to be vague
I think I have missed so much trying to grind out the story! Not spent enough time exploring and still don’t even have the atlas v1 pass so not sure how I got so far and yet missed so much haha 😂
Thanks @heady wyvern
You can still explore after the questline ends.
Don't worry about missing out on anything.
Is there any benefits to resetting the sim
@mellow gust Not really. The other galaxies are only slightly different from Euclid, and Euclid is where all the player communities are at.
Ok I wasn’t to sure if I should or not
I do I complete the mission without leaving Euclid
*how
You must refuse the Atlas during the dialogue in the Final Interface.
So when you say all the player communities are in Euclid
Did I goof going into the next one?
Not all of them, but the largest ones.
I forgot to mention that you can return to Euclid if you've previously built a base there.
What does that change? Can I not play with people in Euclid anymore?
Players can still join your session if they were in another galaxy.
That's how we "ferry" players across galactic borders.
Interesting
I rushed the story just because and now I'm in the lush galaxy
Was considering starting over and just hanging in Euclid, going for a better freighter to start with, etc
Remember: if you've built a base in Euclid, you can use the Space Station teleporter to return.
So basically I'd have access to two galaxies that way then
I do have an old base there
Yes, but make sure you leave a base in Eissentam before you go, or you'll be locked out of there.
Oh wow. Interesting mechanic, and thanks!
Is there any reason to have the star seed in your technology slot? Except for the sick lore behind it?
can someone pm me. how to go to other galaxy.. my 2 main quests are on infinity part like '' exploring''
Is there any reason to have the star seed in your technology slot? Except for the sick lore behind it?
@bold hamlet one reason would be the same as any tech that you install on the tech tab: for it not to break when going through a black hole or a galactic core
@bold hamlet one reason would be the same as any tech that you install on the tech tab: for it not to break when going through a black hole or a galactic core
@prime inlet @bold hamlet
It also increases your hp by +1 (as does remembrance) and together they have adjacency bonus for a total of +3 hp
yep sure
but it will give +1 hp even if installed on general
question was whats the benefit of having it installed in tech
(i think)
oh, it's detrimental to install it in tech
since it will take up slots that should be going to shield, jetpack etc, for max bonuses on the stuff that actually matters
i have both remembrance and star seed on my tech tab, i can put in 3x shield, 3x jetpack, and 3x ls
that's 11 slots, one left
those two items are the two tech items i have in my main inventory,
there's one thing i need to test one of these days though
if bh damage suit tech without them installed.
BHs only damange out of place ship tech
and leave out of place suit tech alone.
so my real suit tech goes in the tech slots. but ill sometimes have some translators, remberance and starseed in my main inv.
meh
makes no real difference
actually, the real difference would be much more available slots for cargo in general.
not a big hoarder, so i kinda forgot that point
Thanks for answering my question:) it was more of a rhetorical question cause 1 hp isn’t that good...

If you reset the simulation by reaching the center, do you start completely fresh?
Normal mode
Cause if that is the case I'll just start a new save for permadeath
You´ll keep all your stuff, but all your tech in multitool and outside of tech slots in space ship and exosuit will be broken.
So you´ll need to get resources to repair it all.
Well I have thousands of each resource
You can even travel between galaxies if you make bases between them.
Yeah I never reached the center when I last played 2 years ago
Sounds fine though, not too bad
Also, another question
Do you have to follow the story to access the center or can I go there right after starting a new save?
Wanna go there in perma death, but the story is sorta long
And not super good lol
You need to complete some first story quests as they serve as tutorial and without them majority of the game´s feature will be locked to you.
But otherwise you can go there right away.
Idk though if it breaks the story.
Might just swap my save to perma death through save edit and skip it
But usually when you either get to new galaxy or too far from a quest´s position, the quest either restarts itself or can be restarted by yourself.
That would be pretty easy lmao
Well, if you want to travel too far back to quests location...
Well, the only reason I would do permadeath would be the achievement
After that, back to normal and doing the quests
Are there any particular benefits to ||which system you chose when you reset the simulation?||
how do i find new galaxies
Go to the center of the galaxy
@outer gyro yes, the galaxy will have more of whichever planet types you want
A dead galaxy will have mostly abandoned spacestations and few aliens to meet while a lush galaxy will have mostly grassy planets with the extreme weather events
black grass? 0-o
My biggest regret when restarting the simulation was not picking Lush.
i don't think it's that big of a deal
QSC
Qsc?
aka quicksilver companion
Ah idk what that is her
in the anomaly
Yet*
You can only do the restart simulation mission once though right?
Ugh what a bummer
@spiral prairie It's fairly easy to bounce between galaxies, assuming you don't mind repairing all of your equipment once per galaxy.
indeed
Or just ask for an uber.
@prime inlet I feel like we just talked about this...
ikr 😄
Right yeah, actually... Just remembered how I spawned in Calypso just a few thousand LY from the core.
What's the best way to get frigate modules
@autumn chasm Piracy.
Sneak up on a freighter until you are close enough to see what's inside their cargo pods. Find the Salvaged Frigate Module, and blow it up. Then run.
If you blow up one that's free floating it will decrease your standing with the local faction.
If you blow up one that is attached to a freighter, you won't.
Frigate missions will also bring back one every once in a while, though it looks like that drop rate got a massive boost with the last update.
But piracy is still fastest.
Dope ty
You can also duplicate if you aren’t against it @autumn chasm
Nahh I'm fine with the grind
Alright no problem
Also whoever mentioned being bummed out about only warping once by story
if you join someone who saves right before the warp
You can uber taxi yourselves to the final galaxy
takes like 4 hours
I asked once but forgot to check back
Can I buy crystal sulphate from bulk from traders, etc?
The game doesn't get reset once you complete the artemis questline?
What does simulation mean in this case
You can uber taxi yourselves to the final galaxy
@twilit ocean they still would have to warp the black hole the nearest to the core, and then core jump, to trigger core to core jump, if i understood things right. that would land them in the next galaxy, at the coordinates of the black hole system previously mentioned.
What does simulation mean in this case
@subtle cosmos your existence in a galaxy, the galaxy is the simulation.
an Atlas made simulation.
So you get tossed into a new galaxy?
you will be asked to reboot the simulation, and if you accept the Atlas, you get to chose which type of galaxy you want the Atlas to simulate next.
Is there any advantage or disadvantage to either?
the advantage a player has (or had, in the past of the game) if the player accepts the Atlas, is that if on Euclid, you can go to the 2nd, 3rd, and 10th galaxy in the order of galaxies, without jumping the core, depending on what choice the player made.
Okay, what does the order of galaxies do?
And can i go say... 1 > 10 > portal to 1 > centre > 2?
there are 255, there's an order, a list. Euclid's number 1 as you know, Hilbert Dimension the 2nd, Calypso the third, etc. no special reasoning behind the order, but some galaxies have names based of or in homage of mythological figures
No significant differences apart from the 4 types and names?
sure, replace portal with teleporter but yes
different probabilities for planet generation
So just to sum up
You can go back to the previous galaxy
It clears the quest
Galaxy types affect biomes
if you have at least one base in that galaxy yes; the quest is already done, no clearing needed; galaxy type affect the odds of say a lush planet being created in a yellow star system
if you went from 1 -> 10 using the quest that is.
Cool, thanks
np
@true solstice unfortunately no, I haven’t had the time for No man’s sky as of late
I’m still at around wherever we left off
@prime inlet I wasn’t talking about blackholes, in the story you unlock a warp by atlas to the next galaxy set based on what you choose, lush, red etc
If you are already at Eissentam, it fastforwards that set the next set forward.
So if Player A, Saves at 14/16 or 15/16, then warps and chooses eissentam.
Player B joins Player A and creates a base because of how multiplayer works now.
Then Player A reloads save data to before warping, and joins player B. When Player A then warps to trigger the Galaxy choosing they can then go to the next Lush or whichever galaxy they choose from Eissentam.
If you choose lush you jump around 15 galaxies a round I believe.
Yeah Gexy and I made it to around 70 or something together using that
It’s one of those things someone can use if they care more about the time spent rather than the journey there.
Plus for some odd reason all the really good planets are spawn planets. So it’s kinda freaky.
@twilit ocean Spawn planets?
When you complete or begin story or travel to a new galaxy
Gotcha
I referred to the place you appear at as “spawn planets”
i'll do the trip to 255 by myself hopefully, but it's a nice strat all the same
Yeah like I said it’s a good backup strategy
I plan to get there someday by save hopping when my sister and I have time to get her far enough in story
Never know if they might make it impossible to get to the beyond 200s someday, or if they might make that one code work where things get crazier the farther you get
Would you guys pic refuse or reset simulation? if i wanted to stay in the euclid galaxy
refuse. @raven lynx
ty
Nice find, you can also get other S-class stuff from these
Like hazard protection or life support upgrades
Yeah from now I will fix them all
I thought they only givr nanites
The upgrade is not working
It says +9421% flora anlysis rewards
+7432% fauna analysis rewards
I'm not receiving more units
Nvm it worked now
Jesus
minerals are neither flora nor fauna @shrewd oar
@oblique vessel you litteraly read my mine 😂😂😂😂
I analyzed a mineral and then a flora and I realized that was a mineral
So... Anyone know if we're actually getting an update this summer?
We just got an update
As in a major one
Oh
Not like cross play isn't major
Idk
theres just no pleasing some people
its a game with zero ongoing charges that's getting free updates like 5 years after release and they just want more more
I think they just asked if there's any updates.
@oblique vessel what are you even on about
I was just asking if people knew of there'd be something big this summer
Im not exactly in the loop
It's not me wanting more. I'm happy with what we have. You're being rude is all
many of us are only wanting the same thing we've been asking for since Foundation -- more variety, better biomes. it's not our fault that they haven't listened
i like to explore the many aspects of the game, and discuss new stuff we find. but i love exploring. to me, it's really what it's all about. the game should be coming up with ways of enhancing this. make it ever more spectacular, not make me go like oh yeah, seen that one before. every once in a while it manages that, and when that happens, damn i love this game.
is that utopian thinking or?
If HG aren't brainstorming ways to improve the depth of exploration and focusing more on planetary variety, then they've lost sight of what makes this game special.
Exactly
I’m feeling like it’s going one of two ways. They are either working to improve it in such a massive way that it reaches their original vision and maybe even beyond that. Or they truly have lost their sight on what the game was originally meant to be. I hope it’s the first thing that’s happening
Im grateful for all the free content they’ve given use but it just kind of sucks for us explorers to see them spend so much time on multiplayer and stuff when the time could be spent improving variety to a massive degree.
Yep
Tbh if there were coders and programmers and good 3d modelers/texturers in here who had a good idea for an exploration focused space game I might be willing to do some 2D art/concept art for it.
I mean I am learning C#. I would love to make a game focusing on the original vision. I've just never made games before
I really hope they are going to do something for us that like to explode and scan new animals, I mean the flying worms are still just stiff poles that float about with no other movement, it's crazy that's still a thing
@round verge i hope the procedural generation overhaul leaks are true
I killed Artemis
Good
@round verge i hope the procedural generation overhaul leaks are true
@uncut harness I hope those leaks are true as well
What are these leaks you speak of?
@lapis gale So basically there was this person on 4chan a little while ago who supposedly has information on what’s coming later on. First they said there would be a content drop mid June (aka the cross play update) and that there would be an in game arg that gives us hints of what’s coming in the big summer update (the new weekend missions)
They said that there would be a heavy focus on proc gen and that HG has very ambitious things for it
They said that they would have implemented “actual” orbital mechanics, with planet placements being realistic (cold planets being farther away from the sun etc.)
Then they said there will be combat elements included. A new race to fight, the on-foot and in air combat being improved
And the mech would start to make sense as a feature
The leaker is one of the people to throw “ARG” around so loosely. WT is an ARG, not the weekend missions. That being said I’m still on the fence if it being real or not... HG being leaked sounds super impractical to me
Yeah this is the kind of thing to take with a grain of salt
I just hope it’s real
Like really hope
The mech making more sense would be nice, but people complain about a lot of other features not being additive so I would say HG fixing that with the mech is also impractical.
But orbiting planets? Sign me up. Like... no seriously, sign me up.
The variety overhaul is what draws me in
That would also be nice. That, the planets orbiting and maybe even rotating, and something at least like WT S3 would make me an enormously happy camper
As I said all this is to be taken with a grain of salt. We can only hope this is true and if it is then we will probably end up receiving one of the greatest updates ever
Anyone remember Elizabeth Leighton fucking exploding just so we could get the next update
A+
i like the old, crazy terrain though
everything nowadays is so flat and gradual
or broken islands
i found some planets that had big mountains, canyons, but many of them are flat sure
going back to orbital mechanics, i wonder how black holes will fit in that
ps4 1.0 had some super crazy terrain
Any good news?
Hopefully they bring the old terrain generation back into the game, but combine it with the new. Would be dumb to throw out one or the other.
