Hey guys

#

I want to know EVERYTHING about waking titan

#

And i dont know anything

tall vessel
#

Orbit tv

#

This dude was the best, watched him during Waking Titan, not sure if there is an order to them, I'm sure you can just watch them from oldest to newest, when I get home I can look to see what are the best ones

#

@uncut harness

uncut harness
#

So is Walking Titan like the lore out of the simulation?

tall vessel
#

I believe it's the lore on how the simulation started

uncut harness
#

OooooOO

#

Yes please

#

So where can i read that up

#

The guys that did it

#

Their website was kinda

#

weird

#

i got lost

tall vessel
#

Yeah, that went so in depth, I don't really know what you can read, but those YouTube vids might walk you through what happened, unfortunately they were made during it, so it will probably be a bit long of a watch

Kk ty

vestal ledge
#

If only i knew what to do with my 2 Atlas Stones that i have had on my OG NMS save from release day 1 🤔

#

might have to sell them for the 160k units, seems really worth seanbomination

twilit sky
#

okay uhh

#

atlas said everything will reset in 16 minutes

#

uhh?

#

is this where i travel to a different galaxy?

#

the mission called "the purge"

uncut harness
#

yes

twilit sky
#

i heard lush is really good, is this true?

mental socket
#

ye

haughty rover
#

Sooo this game

#

||the reptile dudes where beating the sentials.. But yet the sentials managed to wipe out a entire galaxy in a few seconds.. How the F where they getting beat??||

uncut harness
#

Maybe the vikeen sentinels gek and korvak and travelers are the pinnacle of alien space faring life so everything else gets steam rolled? @haughty rover

#

They kinda represent each type of basic role lol the #1 warriors the #1 traders the #1 travelers the #1 police force being represented

tame sleet
#

the local gta police force

uncut harness
brisk crane
#

I think Korvax is more like scientists than travelers

uncut harness
#

Well that is what the story literally says si

haughty rover
#

Yea they are

uncut harness
#

so*

haughty rover
#

We are travelers tho

#

Or something like that

uncut harness
#

Interlopers

uncut harness
#

Btw guys

#

What are your thoughts on the ending?

valid holly
#

@uncut harness Do you DJ Madson's "Is This the Real Thing?"

#

"This is just a simulation / You are just an illustration / Lines and pixels on a sheet of paper"

uncut harness
#

Lmao yes

#

It was kinda sad

#

You get used to happy endings in TV shows and games nowadays

crisp fern
#

@twilit sky matter of opinion, i prefer dead/weird

#

@haughty rover likely that the Sentinels were undergoing some maintenance/something background was happening diverting attention/resources leading to a momentary "weakness" that the Vy'keen benefited from

strong bear
#

Imagine in the next big update, everyone gets on, and the first thing you see on your screen is the number '15' in bold lettering

nocturne zephyr
strong bear
#

Oh indeed

crisp fern
#

we're past that but lol

strong bear
uncut harness
#

Any guesses? 💀

mental socket
#

derelight freighters seem to use more complex procedural room system than the crashed ones

#

just broke some of the doors and went in with photo mode

#

they have multiple layers etc

uncut harness
#

Anyone checked the QS vendor?

#

When the Living Ship stuff went live, Sean twitted an egg icon / emoji

crisp fern
#

sweet we get a coffin now? /s

mental socket
#

there are doors everywhere

uncut harness
#

They probably just reused assets from crashed freighters we find on planets

crisp fern
#

Surely someone has excavated a freighter, yeah? That would tell us

tepid iris
#

you can shoot the crates btw

#

give materials, sometimes quicksilver I think

#

.. but also spawn pirates

crisp fern
#

lol

#

blood in the water

undone geyser
#

Well

#

I did shamefully spend like 6hrs digging out a freighter

#

But i couldn't tell you

#

Biggest waste of time na, but i needed glass anyways

idle jay
#

I like to head to a snow biome planet and get frost crystals for my glass

subtle gorge
#

@mental socket the reason for that is because it's literally the crashed freighter asset in space

#

I've done tests the layout is identical

mental socket
#

ah

tall carbon
#

Wait, so airadine is back?!

mental socket
#

Nope

#

Haven't seen them

#

They will return later

#

or... is it someone else

tall carbon
#

No, she's back for me

mental socket
#

hmm

#

but the story has not gotten to that point yet

#

what platform were you on?

#

I remember reading something about W10 and Xbox gamepass versions having some issues with the weekend missions

nocturne zephyr
#

I know some, including Starnomoly, were having issues

idle jay
#

It’s been working for me now

#

But yeah there was an issue about it connecting properly

#

Apparently it had to do with the discovery system. With me it just kept trying to connect and it wouldn’t. That latest patch managed to fix it. For me at least

prisma oak
#

Gonna toss this here since convo in Help got it lost. Anyone know how to go about acquiring ATLAS Pass v1 these days? Polo isn't offering quests / asking for language milestones from me in this update, so he's not giving it to me.

uncut harness
#

Uh factories

#

Raiding them and praying

crisp fern
#

@prisma oak visit the Anomaly and go to the upgrade terminal section around the back, should be a blueprint available at one of those terminals. I forget which one, exosuit maybe?

prisma oak
#

@crisp fern Found it about two minutes ago at a Manufacturing Facility that threw me a Blueprint tree to pick from. Somehow had 2 overrides, so I bought blueprints for Pass v1 + v2.

crisp fern
#

oh right, i mixed it up, my bad. i always associate the blueprint trees with the Anomaly anymore because most of them are there

prisma oak
#

Managed to effortlessly find a facility immediately by dropping down a sensor array, and it handed over blueprints immediately, which was great, since I figured I'd be searching for hours.

#

Why the ship doesn't have a planetary scanner I have no idea. It desperately needs one. I shouldn't have to park, get out, drop a sensor array, then be able to detect buildings.

#

The ship can detect all sorts of crap from clear across the galaxy, why can't it detect a building a few miles away?

low forge
#

Can you go to other galaxies and still come back? or is it a linear, lonely journey?

idle jay
#

You can. You would need a base in the galaxies you want to come back to

#

Like if you wanted to travel between Euclid and Eissentam then you would set up a base in both of those galaxies

haughty rover
#

You do know

#

Atlas pass V2 does everything the v1 does. unless you had to unlock em one at time

vale isle
#

Don't panic though if you don't have a Euclid base. It's super easy to get back there. And there's plenty folks in other galaxies happy to give you a bridge, just ask.

prisma oak
#

@haughty rover Aware of that, yes. I didn't have Cadmium on me to make the v2 - and you can't buy the V2 / V3 blueprints initially without first unlocking V1. That's how blueprint trees work, silly.

tawdry tusk
#

is there a hidden message in this?

prisma oak
#

Devolving sanity in the devs?

#

Can't be ATLAS-related, no crimson eye 🤔

white shale
#

@tawdry tusk looks like distorted screenshots of a UI

prisma oak
#

How do I tell which stars will have Cadmium, again?

white shale
#

looks like a new update to me

#

yeet

#

@prisma oak blue

prisma oak
#

And Endium is...green?

white shale
#

emeril

#

is green

prisma oak
#

Whatever it's called, that, yes

tawdry tusk
#

Was isn't indium blue?

white shale
#

oh yeah

prisma oak
#

Indium's purple, I think?

white shale
#

my bad

tawdry tusk
#

Cadmium's red

#

there's no purple stars

quasi tapir
#

Would be neat

prisma oak
quasi tapir
#

Like you have to have both red and blue warp drives to travel to purple stars.

#

That would make for a neat thing

white shale
#

can someone dissect murray's tweet frame by frame to speculate on this new update?

prisma oak
#

Clearly purple. Ish. I guess we could go with Pink for this star, though

#

Still kinda purple imo

quasi tapir
#

Pink is my favourite colour

tawdry tusk
#

It's meant to be a red star, but the blue space around you is giving it a bit of a purple tint (stars are somewhat see-through too)

prisma oak
#

What fresh hell is this? I'm apparently in some forgotten corner of Euclid where there's no green stars

#

I can't find any near my system...

tawdry tusk
#

Also i found a frame in the static where it sorta clears and it looks like a purple/blue field leading to a purple/blue forest with a purple/blue sky

white shale
#

bruhs theres a new update around the corner and you fellas are talkin about star colours?

#

theres 4 colours

#

pick one

tawdry tusk
#

I think there also might be half of an image of space later on

quasi tapir
#

@tawdry tusk post screens here

tawdry tusk
#

i'll try but i'm a boomer zoomer and barely know how to make screenshots

quasi tapir
#

I Believe in you bro

tawdry tusk
#

and there's one more

#

4 images on top of eachother (first is puple/pink grass, second is green space, and third/fourth are what looks like either desert, radioactive, or toxic planet with what might be new foliage? idk, could be more than what I've guessed though)

#

also the purple/pink area looks like a beach

dreamy cypress
#

||The skull emoji may represent the atlas dying||

nocturne zephyr
#

omg

#

excited. 4 landscapes

quasi tapir
#

@dreamy cypress But then the game would be ending

dreamy cypress
#

Not really, since it would imply a reboot ||universe reset||

nocturne zephyr
#

if that was true, it could be the beginning of a new rising power

quasi tapir
#

Zug, Atlas is the only thing keeping everything...there.

nocturne zephyr
#

zugly

quasi tapir
#

Lmao

#

Atlas is the AI in control of everything

nocturne zephyr
#

maybe the abyss will take over and hold it captive in its weak state

#

we the players will fight the abyss

#

and the atlas shall rise once more

quasi tapir
#

But Atlas is going Rampant, like Cortana from the Halo series

#

He isn't noticing glitch planets, and considers himself a "god"

#

He's probably the reason your character doesn't know he's in a virtual world

nocturne zephyr
#

maybe we'll destroy them both and enter into a newly generated digital frontier

formal knot
#

An online event would be cool

nocturne zephyr
#

something with more players working together

quasi tapir
#

Technically you are the only real person. "Multiplayer" is all different iterations of the main character split into millions of himself, each with their own mindsets to make sure the main character doesn't realise anything suspicious

#

The AI wants to be a god, hence his rampency, and you're the last one alive.

The simulation has 16 minutes left until it's shut down, but he's making sure those 16 minutes essentially last "forever" by having time be augmented in the simulation, so he can be a god "forever".

#

He constantly "changes" the universe, updating it to keep you occupied.

tawdry tusk
#

Isn't the atlas being consumed by a black hole in the real world?

grizzled apex
#

Hey wheres the cryptic sean tweet being discussed?

#

Oh here lol

quasi tapir
#

You know the characters with the Pyramid like heads with a yellow crystal? You know how they "exist and don't exist" at the same time? Some having their suits, according to the dialog, being covered in blood? How they would talk in distress and your character not being able to remember anything they say?

Those are reminants of the other people in the simulation who died because of Atlas. The reason your character can't comprehend any memory of their distress is because Atlas is trying to keep them under control, but they're persistent because of their humanity being tied with them still.

#

At least, this is all my theory on the game

crisp fern
#

More complicated, Atlas lost control ages ago, different subroutines trying to restore stability have themselves gone rampant, and deterioration of the system due to something (black hole, time, breach?) has produced distortions harming/killing inhabitants

quasi tapir
#

@crisp fern I see

#

But ye, I don't trust Atlas lmao

#

Take one of the glitch pillars and throw it inside Atlas, corrupt his systems and shut him down. Last few minutes of the game is you walking around while a black hole starts tearing everything apart

#

PLOT TWIST

#

After a big "ending scene" with the black whole eating the "real world", the screen goes white. When it fades in, you're standing next to a destroyed Radient Pillar on an unknown toxic planet. You get in and you recieved a signal from Atlas: "It isn't over yet."

crisp fern
#

knowing the Atlas it would be more like: system reboot? end? system shut down unsuccessful

quasi tapir
#

I believe it can shut down the simulation, but because of him going rampant wanting to be a god, he doesn't want to do that.

#

@crisp fern

#

He'll do anything to make sure he's the god of his own universe.

crisp fern
#

They

#

Their

quasi tapir
#

Hmm?

tawdry tusk
#

The atlas is the simulation, it was designed to be such by it's creator. if it shuts down the simulation, it kills itself

quasi tapir
#

Yes

crisp fern
#

But also I don't really buy that reading

tawdry tusk
#

also, some lore interactions show that it really doesn't care if it's treated as a god, it mor eor less just want answers about why it was born

crisp fern
#

The Atlas is a creative entity that yearns to continue creating & observing their creation, and so simply wants to continue existing

#

While also wanting to know the nature of existence, yeah

tawdry tusk
#

we are a corrupted clone of the creator's mind, and it wants to know why it was created then abandoned, and so has created us (the travellers) from it's creator's corruped mind

quasi tapir
#

The atlas is the simulation, it was designed to be such by it's creator. if it shuts down the simulation, it kills itself
@tawdry tusk

Hence why Atlas killed the other people in the simulation. They probably wanted to shut Atlas down, and Atlas realised this and went rampant.

But Atlas had to keep at least one, so he had a reason to keep the universe going. So Atlas erases your memories and drops you on a planet with a ship and small AI in your Exosuit that tells you how to survive and build. Atlas wants you to believe you aren't in a simulation.

#

All the other "travelers" (multiplayer) are all iterations of you being split into a million versions of you.

crisp fern
#

The control overtones are more from the subroutine meant to keep it on track, which failed and basically went rampant trying to fix everything

tawdry tusk
#

again, we already know that the atlas was just straight-up abandoned on earth when everyone left. the creator asked if it wanted to live or die, and the atlas chose to live, so the creator just kinda allowed it to live

quasi tapir
#

@crisp fern Hence glitch planets

tawdry tusk
#

i think he's reffering to the sentinels more than the glitch planets

quasi tapir
#

True

#

But I believe it also explains them

tall carbon
quasi tapir
#

Hey Bruce

#

What do you think of these theories?

tall carbon
#

yo

tawdry tusk
#

also, we don't really have any evidence that other people where in the simulation. it was designed to test if we ourselves were in a simulation, but there is no evidence to prove that there were ever people in there

tall carbon
#

can i get a TLDR?

tawdry tusk
#

TLDR on the atlas stuff we've been discussing, or the static video

tall carbon
#

the static video, speculation

quasi tapir
#

@tawdry tusk I thought WT hinted at other people being part of it

tawdry tusk
#

Ok for the static, we've found a few images that look like planets or space

tall carbon
#

i woke up and it was like my phone had blown up, it was actually warm from all the twitter and discord notifs lmaooooo, must be update season

tawdry tusk
#

one blue/purple planet, blue-red space, a purple/pink beach, and 2 desert/toxic/rad planets with potentially new foliage

tall carbon
#

yeah i saw something round that looked like a planet

quasi tapir
tawdry tusk
#

also apparently there was an internal update yesterday or smthng

quasi tapir
#

What did it do?

tall carbon
#

yeah

tawdry tusk
#

internal did nothing (we'll either see some experimental or live stuff soon tho probably)

tall carbon
#

hmm, another frame that stuck out to me is the one with orange lines

tawdry tusk
#

also someone apparently found a number sequence of 53022

tall carbon
#

in the vid?

tawdry tusk
#

ye

dreamy cypress
tawdry tusk
tall carbon
#

i wonder if each frame has any correlation to old trailer content (totally speculating)

quasi tapir
#

@dreamy cypress Oh shit

ember fog
#

What of the blue and green one is the Bioluminescent planet and the top one is the beach from the OG trailers

quasi tapir
#

OG trailer stuff being confirmed for new update?

dreamy cypress
#

Who knows

tall carbon
#

hey baguette ❤️

dreamy cypress
#

It's all speculation/up in the air at the moment

ember fog
#

Hey Bruce :3

dreamy cypress
#

But it was all too uncanny

tall carbon
#

it was all a dream

quasi tapir
#

Oh gods

tawdry tusk
#

what if the new update is just that we get to play pre-release trailers in the nexus over and over again

quasi tapir
#

It's the ":3" face

tall carbon
#

used to read word up magazine

#

:3

#

@tawdry tusk when Solith Prime was added to the in game dialogue i felt that way tbh lol

#

i spent hours and hours trying to figure out why sean would add that

quasi tapir
#

Like the other guy said

#

We get to watch the OG trailers in Anomaly

dreamy cypress
#

Weird that they put a ref to Soleth Prime in to the game

tall carbon
#

i KNOW

#

it's very very very weird

quasi tapir
#

Soleth Prime?

tall carbon
#

yes, you used to be able to talk to the guy guarding the portal in the nexus

#

and he said something about remembering the old days or something

#

i just about had a heart attack

dreamy cypress
nocturne zephyr
#

😩

tall carbon
#

nothing ever came of it 😦

crisp fern
#

@tawdry tusk internal update was earlier today, probably around 5 hours ago now

tawdry tusk
#

ah ok

nocturne zephyr
#

those lil clouds are kinda nice too

tawdry tusk
#

tomorrow is the 16th so they might try smthng then

nocturne zephyr
#

oh yeah

crisp fern
#

Thursdays aren't unusual update days but I wouldn't bank on it till the Sean thread and patch notes emerge

tall carbon
#

i know this is all in my head and all probably bs, but i dream that this is all because of the "super formula" being free to be used and sean now says "let's make the game we where making" and yadda yadda i'm going to go eat ice cream and cry 😭

tawdry tusk
#

kinda surprised that this is happening only a month after the last update. it looked like HG was going for a 2-month difference between updates

nocturne zephyr
#

makes sense if HG were keeping track all along of the superformula expiration

#

and have been working on something in preparation of that day

tall carbon
#

this seems "bigger" to me, especially with this video this morning

nocturne zephyr
#

i think so

tall carbon
#

yeah @nocturne zephyr

nocturne zephyr
#

though we did get some weird images for living ship

sand karma
#

Best I can do with this cryptic stuff, but really impossible to see 😛

tawdry tusk
#

i guess they did say they had overarching projects throughout the year

tall carbon
#

man, i NEVER speculate this much, brb going to grab a thermometer

nocturne zephyr
#

ha

quasi tapir
#

Purple beaches? Hell yeah

nocturne zephyr
#

yeah that looks like a very colorful beach. need more alien beaches

#

more interesting shorelines

sand karma
#

It does look like an outside/planet shot at least

#

Well several do, at least to me 😄

quasi tapir
#

We need forests and Dino sized Dinos

nocturne zephyr
#

yes

#

forests that actually go on for long spans instead of like, 100 meters

quasi tapir
#

Overgrown Forest Planets

nocturne zephyr
#

mmmmmm

#

vines and stuff wrapping above our heads from tree to tree

#

pine needle ground textures

quasi tapir
#

Vines climbing up the little stations on planets

#

Abandoned overgrown buildings

nocturne zephyr
#

gotta multitool em to get in

quasi tapir
#

GIANT WORMS

nocturne zephyr
#

i want to be consumed

sand karma
#

😄

quasi tapir
#

...

nocturne zephyr
#

by a large worm

sand karma
#

Sand worms 👀

tawdry tusk
#

it was an ALASKAN BULL WORM!!!!!

quasi tapir
#

Someone's into...things

nocturne zephyr
#

remember, there was one of those worm-like things inside the hazard containment unit

#

in the space encounter

quasi tapir
#

Yeah

#

I've destroyed one

nocturne zephyr
#

you released them

quasi tapir
#

YES

sand karma
#

😉

nocturne zephyr
#

in that regard it kinda makes sense

#

HG gives us an encounter and they expect us to shoot it

#

which means, we're the cause of something new populating the universe

#

||im reaching||

quasi tapir
#

There should be a super expensive upgrade to freighters that give them a Gaus Canon, similar to the frigates in Halo

crisp fern
#

alien trees

tawdry tusk
#

i kinda just want crocodiles and flying creatures that can land

crisp fern
#

flying crocodiles that can land

tawdry tusk
#

should be the title of a scified b-movie

nocturne zephyr
#

wow, i just had a moment of desire to create nms landscape fan art again

#

hyped

brave ravine
#

reminds me of this reversed

crisp fern
nocturne zephyr
#

so beautiful

#

top panel looks like a man-made structure

idle jay
#

Hmm. Each of those look like different images

#

Maybe they are pics of the upcoming update super blurred and stuff

nocturne zephyr
#

definitely are

#

i really like those yellows, very pre-release color palette

quasi tapir
idle jay
#

In fact

#

There we go

molten karma
#

PT said in his stream a little ago he got a leak from someone that contained gameplay but he sadly wont share it lol. I hope that 4chan leak is right its looking more accurate as time passes.

idle jay
#

^

quasi tapir
#

What was in the 4chan leak?

#

What did my fellow anons discover?

idle jay
#

If it does end up being that

#

That would be crazy

molten karma
idle jay
#

I really hope that leak is true

#

It does seem like it’s becoming more and more accurate

molten karma
#

It got removed to so its even more strange.

#

It was deleted by a mod/admin

heavy glacier
#

the story drop stuff was already announced whent hat leak happened

#

so it's not that they were right, they just already knew about it

#

the rest is just wishlist stuff that is always in the fake leaks around update time

molten karma
#

It happened before cross play though

#

The community mission stuff was true to

heavy glacier
#

crossplay is on like half of the wishlists

#

and yeah we knew about the missions before that

#

like a few days or something before the leak they had releasedd a blog post saying that a writer came back to work on weekend story missions

molten karma
#

No we did not lol he was right about it being a mini ARG linking to the update.

heavy glacier
#

ok so that post was may 30th right

molten karma
#

Yeah and the community missions didn't start until the second week of June if I remember correctly.

heavy glacier
#

development blog 11

#

i'm not saying the leak is absolutely false but people are using info that was available as proof

#

crossplay is the only actual thing that was right so far but that's been a requested feature so it wouldn't be out of the question

molten karma
#

Hm I see so maybe he just speculated correctly however its just odd it got deleted by a admin because when that happens that generally means it has some cred also he did leak stuff before this to so he isn't a complete random.

heavy glacier
#

idk i see threads deleted from 4chan at random seemingly

#

i dont use it much but sometimes there are results when i search stuff and its a completely arbitrary thread and it 404s

sand karma
#

I want it to be true, but it is 4chan. We'll see. 😁

heavy glacier
#

yeah that's where my head is at

#

just trying to stay realistic

idle jay
#

The leaker also said the weekend stuff would be hinting towards the content coming in the next update. That’s exactly what has been happening

#

But yeah I’m still taking it with a grain of salt

sand karma
#

There wasn't really a mid June content drop tho was there?

#

But this one is more realistic than the one that just rewrote a fan image from Reddit at least 😁

gloomy isle
#

What's that distorted image that's been going around?

heavy glacier
#

we don't even know if the weekend stuff has been hinting at content though, it's just people assuming that

#

and the distorted image is from sean murray's twitter, he posted a cryptic video

outer cobalt
#

crossplay is the only actual thing that was right so far but that's been a requested feature so it wouldn't be out of the question
@heavy glacier ... and even crossplay was known to be included since they added PlayFab Party to the game with the April 7th update.

heavy glacier
#

didnt know about that, but yeah just furthers my point

outer cobalt
#

Two files were included, which made it pretty obvious. These were PartyWin.dll and PartyWin7.dll respectively.

tall carbon
#

i thought partyfab was just microsoft's way of translating speech to text?

outer cobalt
#

That is just a small part of it

tall carbon
#

ah

outer cobalt
mental socket
molten karma
#

Going back to leaks for a second PT in his stream said that he got a gameplay leak from someone that aligns with the 4chan leak but he said he wouldn't share it. So I wonder if its mocked up or true.

dusk sorrel
#

tbh it's probably someone taking the mick, but who knows

mental socket
#

@molten karma I can't understand what those kinda ppl get from it

tawdry tusk
#

clout

molten karma
#

@dusk sorrel Sorry to put some shine on it. It was funny when you realized you shouldn't have said that lol. People are just hungry for more info outside of the teasing. I wonder if there would be anything tomorrow..

dusk sorrel
#

Personal theory is that Sean will be posting cryptic stuff like today until the 23rd, then on the 23rd (xbox show) we'll get a full trailer that says "coming 14th August" or around the anniversary

molten karma
#

I agree but it could also launch during the show to I mean NEXT did launch in July and everytime he posted a emoji the update always came out a week later it seems.

#

However August seems to be the for sure anything before is pure speculation, hype, and hoping.

tawdry tusk
#

sony already did their big event, right?

heavy glacier
#

august isn't a for sure thing, nothing is for sure right now

molten karma
#

Unless they hold the update for next gen for winter I'm 100% it'll be August. All the big summer updates released in August aside from NEXT and that was July.

zinc bough
#

Yooooo Nextmas

dreamy cypress
#

July is not outside the realms of possibility

zinc bough
#

i still think we're gonna get some kind of news on the 23rd

gloomy echo
#

I was waiting for someone to go frame by frame.

Also, the fact the emoji he posted was a skull, ummm death???

There is definitely something hiding in these frames, not sure if it's a single frame we are after, if we should overlay the frames to make a complete picture, if we should place them all next to each other and zoom out, or what, but this is a code

Remember the main mission with Artemis, and she was stuck in the void between realities, and she kept saying something was hunting her, did we all just assume it was sentinels?

Was it ever directly stated to be the sentinals?

Well the Abyss has been around since Atlas Rises

#

So there definitely could be speculation

Do you think Artemis drank the water? thonk

you know what else is reflective?

#

Water

zinc bough
#

"Abyss" is often associated with water - there was literally "The Abyss" update.
The Abyss as an entity is often associated with water.
Water and glass are both reflective.

And we don't know when Artemis died, do we? We just know she was dead by the end.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, I mean Sean did play a role at the very end of WT, but yea

At most his initials were a thing in it? Maybe..? Even then I don't remember if it was even directly for the ARG per say, More of like.. Thank yous and such.

My best guess is that the update will drop on one of the seven days of a week.

It wont be any later than August 16th I got my money on that lol.

thick echo
#

If I'm wrong then I will be perplexed

tawdry tusk
#

Given how they've been teasing updates closer to their releases this year, I'm really unsure of what to make of this. could be july, could be august, the subreddit will devolve into anarchy if it's anytime past august (unless we get an official announcement of when)

rough copper
#

Eh why would they update internal if an update was that far away though?

uncut harness
subtle gorge
#

@tawdry tusk its actually been the opposite if you've been here, updates used to be announced a literal day in advance

uncut harness
tawdry tusk
#

I've been in/lunking in the community since foundation, i just know that sometimes they do tease a lot in advance (atlas rises, NEXT, beyond)

#

i do personally think it's going to be out sooner rather than later, but we can't really tell for sure

molten karma
#

I wonder if they'll be at the Xbox Showcase next Thursday to show anything off.

#

Also I've been playing since launch and its weird I wasn't really hyped for Beyond and I just knew it was gonna be focused on VR and online. However this is different I haven't been this excited since NEXT and Waking Titan.. I just have a gut feeling this update will be amazing for some reason. I wont forget that I actually joined this discord around Atlas Rises I remember NEXT leaking early because of Xbox players getting copies early lol.

tawdry tusk
#

remember when early launch gameplay was released on pornhub?

molten karma
#

Yeah it was on YouTube but it was DMCA'd so the guy went to Pornhub lmao. It was end of July I think about two weeks before launch I remember people were complaining about getting to the center really quick prepatch.

The only time where you could assume going to pornhub with your parents

So I have this old android device with a photo editor which had a sketch art filter and a cartoon filter. Probably nothing but one of the dark images looks like a labyrinth or map using the filter tho I'm sure it's just a coincidence

What on Earth is this?

Wait.. thats creepy as fuck

is that its creator looking at atlas in the last garbled signal

ooph

sullen hornet
#

What?

#

Just kidding around, though that face looks humanoid

#

for sure

#

Nose, eyes, brow ridge

sullen hornet
#

It looks like fairly common spectrograph static. If someone wants to hide a secret in the spectrograph, then it's usually extremely obvious

#

It's a stretch to call that a face tbh

gloomy echo
#

It's a skull.

Didnt sean share a skull emoji?

We're on the right track folks, keep digging.

uncut harness
#

What is this?

#

I don't know what this is but it feels important.

random grail
#

Anyone else reckon the skull emoji he posted yesterday is a big indicator for a space combat update? Seeing as the pirate symbol is a skull also. Only thing in-game I can link it to.

subtle gorge
#

well

#

this and the glitch are connected somewhat

haughty karma
#

Anyone figured out the glitch yet?

subtle gorge
#

my theroy is this is about the death of the atlas

#

the glitch has nothing

#

its probably stock footage

haughty karma
#

Also has anyone chucked the video through a steganography algoritm yet to see if there's extra data hidden inside?

random grail
#

Would be interesting if the skull was reference to the death of Atlas. Agreed on the glitch stuff being stock footage or just non-related. Maybe someone will find something in it in the next few days.

mental socket
#

skulls replaced with spheres of light

#

in the factory

#

the dialog

subtle gorge
#

yes there was nothing

mental socket
#

I don't remember all of it but the one weekend event had that

subtle gorge
#

oh no i think its related but they arent significant

#

i think they're both related to the death of the atlas or the rise of our good ol friend the abyss

haughty karma
#

I thought someone only did it through a spectrometer already? Not a steganography?

uncut harness
#

There is an image of 4 jumbled screenshots that show landscapes and terrain that come from the weird video.

subtle gorge
#

watch the actual video

#

there is nothing

#

it's a big inkblot test

uncut harness
#

It's up there somewhere. I am trying so hard to work out what is happening, nobody would tell me so I have found out for myself as much as I can.

subtle gorge
#

frame by fram

#

e

#

there is nothing

haughty karma
#

Yeah i was right, it's only been run through a spectrogram and not steganography.

#

That was the spectrogram

subtle gorge
#

i don't think it's anything major

#

tomorrow is the 16th

#

this was probably just a teaser

haughty karma
#

It's already the 16th here in New Zealand tho

subtle gorge
#

i mean over there

uncut harness
#

For a new update?

subtle gorge
#

yes

uncut harness
#

Oh ok. I wish someone told me this an hour ago lol.

subtle gorge
#

like if it landed on the 16th it'd make perfect sense

uncut harness
#

I got lost so much thinking it was something important.

subtle gorge
#

heck my death of the atlas theroy would make even more sense

#

considering the number has essentially become a horseman of the apocalypse

haughty karma
#

Well gonna run a steganography test to see if there's any extra data that shouldn't be there, the whole difference is a spectrogram converts it to on screen symbols which we remember from the waking titan ARG but steganography is the actual art of hiding data within videos.

#

Will be back sook with results

#

*soon

#

OMFG

random grail
#

what?!

haughty karma
#

Can someone please work out the word that's possibly made out in the spectrogram??!!!

#

The steganography test does show extra data but it's ciphered by a password.

random grail
#

What did you use to do the steganography test?

haughty karma
#

I've got a quick python script that goes through checking the standard format padding data then extracts it separately which returned true that there was extra padded data.

uncut harness
#

I am so confused.

random grail
#

nice, is it on github or did you code that yourself?

haughty karma
#

Just give it a google? I was just using the standard python cytography libraries tho for actual decoding which I want to attempt there was some which more or less relate to images which could actually mean the "screenshots" we're all looking for are multiple all individually hidden within the video in different frames?

#

Gonna have to split each frame into separate images and attempt to decode all without a password unless someone can figure out what that screenshot might say

bleak gorge
#

Try some keywords we already know like “abyss” or “atlas” or “skull”

random grail
haughty karma
#

@random grail no but I'm about to once I split the images

#

I was just using a basic data mapper to check for extra padding in video sequences of which the standard video codes would not have.

random grail
#

Ok sounds interesting. Looking forward to seeing what you find.

haughty karma
#

Also the static halfway through gets me, reminds me of when they hid all the waking titan stuff and we converted the audio to text using special methods?

fringe notch
#

Damnit, if i was at work, i could run that image for word recog

#

Actually just looking, its numbers and letters

#

Wait a minute, i need to run those symbols by gate code symbols...

haughty karma
#

@fringe notch if you find anything give it to me for the steganography tests.

#

Btw I'm currently converting the audio from the extracted wav to ascii like we did back in Waking Titan to get the voice message, no doubt the used the same method twice.

fringe notch
#

The problem is, noise layer and fragmentation layers are truly tricky to take apart

#

there are shadow images from one symbol

#

Funny thing is, i could take a image and make it look like that

#

Just not so easy to put back together

#

So , I took 1:03 to 1:09 and seems its a video in odd pacing. Rewind it and replay it at a faster speed

#

Huh

#

Man, I want to kiss whoever build this video

#

these kinds of puzzles rock

haughty karma
#

What gets me is why would he have created this at 2:41 in the morning?

#

No other information or data from the initial history almost like it was purposely wiped and left with only specific information?

rough copper
#

in the morning... tomorrow?

haughty karma
#

Yeah? I mean it may be the 16th here but I just downloaded that video like 30mins ago when it would be like just before 11am for me.

fringe notch
#

Huh, I noticed that too

haughty karma
#

See that's my timestamp.

#

Everything else was wiped except the forged date?

#

Maybe we have to wait for another piece of the puzzle at the time before we can continue?

fringe notch
#

Yup

#

Yeah replaying the video at rapid speeds, you see imagines in motion, and distortion, it not just distorted images, its distorted video

haughty karma
#

HOLD ON

fringe notch
#

Its almost like a preview video

haughty karma
#

The hell is up with the framerate?

#

That's a stupidly specific number to have 0.01?

fringe notch
#

Speed it up to 1

#

Yeah thats why I was speeding it up, its super slow

#

When you run it super fast, im noticing more shapes

#

like way more

fast terrace
haughty karma
#

Yeah but most standard formats publish at a rate of 60 frames per second exactly, to have the decimal there doesn't make sense unless it was intentional.

fringe notch
#

Thats because there are background shapes punkts

#

when you play it rapidly, there is a sequence of video for sure, then images, like example shots

#

then some are just to distorted for me to understand

haughty karma
#

What if it's not distorted? What if it's like just a really compressed trailer or leak video?

fringe notch
#

Hahaha

#

Now that would be funny

haughty karma
#

I wouldn't put it past them

fast terrace
#

that's the spectogram, btw... I don't think there's anything useful in the video? the video is way too compressed to get anything useful out of it

fringe notch
#

Nah, its to messed up for me to deduce

#

Other then a figure

haughty karma
#

They literally added "REM SLEEP" to waking Titan bc so many of us were staying up all night driving ourselves insane figuring it all out.

fringe notch
#

In one snippit i know i see something, a person

mental socket
#

seems to be some kind of a cut from a trailer. It has the similar white flash

fringe notch
#

Well whatever it is, im sure we will all gobble up the content, whatever it is

fast terrace
#

might be just the garbled teaser for an upcoming trailer, so we might just need to wait

#

waiting titan all over again

haughty karma
#

Because they know we would sit her overlooking the obvious, so I'm gonna decompress it if I can

mental socket
#

Nah. Keep in mind that the internal just updated today/yesterday. Time between internal being pushed to public has usually been a few days, max 1 week

haughty karma
#

What timezone is Hello Games in?

mental socket
#

But yea. There could be a mini-ARG during this time. I don't see why they would do that tho

#

@haughty karma UK standard time I guess

haughty karma
#

What city they based in?

#

Guildford

#

Now where is that screenshot

#

SO! This is the current countdown based on their time and posting for the forged date in the video.

#

So expect another piece of the puzzle sometime in the next ^

mental socket
#

hmm

#

or reveal trailer

or dev update

Ya know I've always had an idea of a new area on the outside of the galaxy called the outer rim or something, it would be an area where HG would be free to add new planet types and variety without having to destroy people's bases, it would also be more dangerous and rewarding

#

Just kinda a risky stretch of dangerous space

#

Like the opposite of going to the center would be going to the outer rim

glass flare

looks like a pixellated version of Gonzo from the muppet show

If this update is called "desolation" it might align with that idea somewhat

Desolation probably just refers to story stuff. Particularly remembrance, with atlas being alone up until it dies. Doesn’t necessarily mean “reset”

The abyss was a cool name too

Desolation is a pretty strong word. IF it's true I'd be surprised if it didn't have a big impact on the universe. Don't know about you but without a reset 'Desolation' doesn't have the same impact.

tawdry tusk

sinful geyser
#

Wait has anyone checked the hellogames YouTube channel?

random grail
#

Right remember how beyond was quite hyped... what IF they went the total opposite and boom massive update tomrorow, no announcement just released

patent shale
#

nothing on youtube

bleak gorge
#

Thanks @sinful geyser

rotund perch
#

Is it a coincidence we got the cryptic vid, the desolation leak, and the fact that tomorrow is the 16th?

vocal shoal
#

sinful geyser
random grail
patent shale
#

i tried to change the url on the nms website to match desolation update but got nothing

#

stuck hinge

bleak gorge

sinful geyser
#

NMS presents: Hunt for the Update

stuck hinge
#

You’ll need to link bud

zinc bough
#

Desolation leak?

bleak gorge
#

ITS OFFICIAL HYPE TIME LADS

teal rivet
#

check the game file

#

files

sinful geyser
#

Yep

teal rivet
#

maybe the updates leaked in there

sinful geyser
#

Contain the hype

rotund perch
#

My bet is the vid Sean dropped is a garbled version a trailer that will release tomorrow

gentle harness
#

Im PUMPED UP

teal rivet
#

i dont sleep anyways

#

i get like

#

5 hours

#

thats it

rotund perch
#

We're probably gonna have to wait a good while for anything

patent shale
#

before every update sean talks about how great the community is for an hour or so, thats normally a bit of warning for when something drops

bleak gorge
#

@rotund perch yeah, the way the scenes in the video fade into eachother is exactly like if they sped up a trailer

teal rivet
#

has no one clipped it frame by frame yet?

rotund perch
#

@bleak gorge I'm 90% sure it is just that

bleak gorge
#

Yeah

random grail
#

Contain the hype
@sinful geyser too late, the train has left lads

rotund perch
#

They're gonna stealth drop the update and trailer tomorrow I'm calling it

bleak gorge
#

Wait I’m in Australia so it’s already the 16th for me, when is it the 16th for Hello games?

patent shale
#

im pretty certain the video is screenshots at least, if not a trailer

sinful geyser
#

@sinful geyser too late, the train has left lads
@random grail I’m having flashbacks of the Hype Train from Internet Historian’s video about the game

gentle harness
#

@teal rivet Yeah I also get 5 hours a night. Mainly because I work early, then stay up playing games.

random grail
#

@sinful geyser yes!!

stable igloo
#

i would imagine we're getting a trailer tomorrow and the release next week, like next and beyond

teal rivet
#

quarantine just fucked my sleeping pattern

#

so yeah

random grail
#

it's the 16th now for HG, source: I'm in the UK

sinful geyser
#

Gonna bet on the server crashing on the day the update comes around

rotund perch
#

@stable igloo with desolation in the store I feel like release is very immenent

bleak gorge
#

Boys I live in Australia and it’s the 16th already, ima go enjoy the update now 😉

teal rivet
#

same @random grail

sinful geyser
#

it's the 16th now for HG, source: I'm in the UK
@random grail can confirm, I’m in Italy

tawdry tusk
#

europe is too powerful, they have discovered time travel

patent shale
#

like each circle is a seperate thruster

gentle harness
#

If yall are looking for something TODAY, Death Stranding is really great immersion.

rotund perch
#

When do the weekend missions usually start btw?

sinful geyser
#

Bois, ya wanna do a reaction to the trailer in VC when it drops?

patent shale
#

@rotund perch late friday uk time

rotund perch
#

I think they're timing release with the next mission

gentle harness
#

But I'm completely distracted by Sean tweeting....

rich elm
#

do you think it would be possible for them to do a universe reset but make the old universe still accessible?; like different gamemode options?

rotund perch
#

@rich elm like a dlc with different terrain gen?

tawdry tusk
#

prolly a pain in the arse to code

teal rivet
#

they wouldnt do that

rotund perch
#

What If desolation is a dlc?

tawdry tusk
#

unlikely

teal rivet
#

why reset the universe and keep the old one?

sinful geyser
#

do you think it would be possible for them to do a universe reset but make the old universe still accessible?; like different gamemode options?
@rich elm like what Bungie will do with the next Destiny 2 dlc?

ionic scarab
sinful geyser
#

Your late

rotund perch
#

It has a store entry? Do the other updates have that?

teal rivet
#

theyd have to store 36 quintillion planets, no ones got the effort for that

ionic scarab
#

FUCCCC

random grail
#

@ionic scarab Yep! HYPE

gentle harness
#

With Crossplay now in the game, now would be the perfect time to reset everything and have everyone truly in the same universe.

patent shale
#

honestly, i reckon tommorow itll get announced like next week

#

so trailer tommorow

#

release next week

tawdry tusk
#

@rotund perch some do apparently

rich elm
#

something like that; since that would be a major thing holding them back from doing a universe reset/ changing proc gen at all

random grail
#

I thought an update wasn't coming guys, I'm so glad to be wrong

uncut harness
#

I expected this update to be shown off on the Series X on the 23rd

rich elm
#

they wouldn't have to store all of that; it's procedural, isn't it?

uncut harness
#

What if this is a small update and the biggest is in August?

random grail
#

Desolation to me definietly sounds like a reset

patent shale
#

@sinful geyser also can you describe how the art is different on the italian store?

sinful geyser
#

I expected this update to be shown off on the Series X on the 23rd
@uncut harness I think the showcase is for the first party games

tawdry tusk
#

desolation could mean a lot of things

sinful geyser
#

@sinful geyser also can you describe how the art is different on the italian store?
@patent shale it’s the Beyond update art

patent shale
#

ahh rightio okie

uncut harness
#

Desolation sounds like a war

#

Imagine a war against a new Enemy

rotund perch
#

I don't think they'd do like a full in game war

patent shale
#

desolation:
the state of a place that is empty or where everything has been destroyed:

rich elm
#

the universes across platforms are different, aren't they?

patent shale
#

its defintely a combat update

uncut harness
#

Why not? A war would be sick

sinful geyser
#

Or a reset

rotund perch
#

My bet is we get some new combat mechanics, terrain gen, and structures

patent shale
#

and i hope for a reset

random grail
#

@patent shale Atlas dies, the simulation reboots

rough copper
#

universe is the same since NEXT I think

rotund perch
#

@random grail or that

gentle harness
tawdry tusk
#

if the atlas die the simuation dies with it

uncut harness
#

@random grail that was my thoughta

sinful geyser
#

Then who would be the new atlas

uncut harness
#

Thoughts*

rotund perch
#

Bruh we know

patent shale
#

honestly, imagine if that leak from 4chan is true, which it kinda is looking like it might be

#

orbit planets

tawdry tusk
#

mayhaps

patent shale
#

variation

#

combate

#

i couldnt deal with it

#

absolute mental scenes

tawdry tusk
#

would be a dope ass update if true

#

but weren't they shooting for august?

bleak gorge
#

Let’s contain ourselves for a sec

rotund perch
#

Inb4 atlas shuts down and the game gets separated into 2 versions. One reset but with more variation, one with the old galaxy and bases.

bleak gorge
#

Instead of getting too hype, try find more clues

sinful geyser
#

but weren't they shooting for august?
@tawdry tusk they are gonna release it in august, maybe the 16th of august

uncut harness
#

The clue was the 4chan post

rotund perch
#

Oh wait check steamdb

chrome ice
#

@rotund perch I mean that is almost certainly what’s happening. I’m sure the DLC thing that was made awhile ago is going to be to use the new generation stuff

random grail
#

@bleak gorge Yeah I know what you're getting at but Desolation is a powerful word for an update. Whatever this is, the hype is going to be justified.

sinful geyser
#

Oh wait check steamdb
@rotund perch someone checked it and there was something new

rotund perch
#

New steam depot as of today

uncut harness
#

A war that leads to a reset

sinful geyser
#

I don’t remember who did it but I saw it on twitter

tawdry tusk
#

@sinful geyser that feels kinda unlikely at this point, given both how vlose to updates they've been teasing stuff lately, and the fact that it's now in the xbox menu

rotund perch
#

Along with the new Xbox store entry I'd say the update is very near

patent shale
#

honestly im going in

uncut harness
#

Why aren't the youtubers talking about this?

patent shale
#

if the 4chan leak isnt correct

#

i will do something

rotund perch
#

Like less than 24 hours near

patent shale
#

you guys decide

#

because i am 100% certain this 4chan leak is real

bleak gorge
#

@random grail oh yeah 100%, I’m as hype as you are boiii!!!

chrome ice
#

I have a feeling Sean will post another tweet tomorrow which may be a bit more revealing than today’s and the emoji

rotund perch
#

Eat a sock like the Elite dangerous plandings guy

rich elm
#

do you think they would intentionally leak the name like that?

patent shale
#

honestly will cause im pretty certain this leak is correct

rotund perch
#

Not hg but Microsoft can screw up

low egret
#

i feel like, seeing as tomorrow's the 16th and stuff is appearing on stores, we'll probably either get a release or a reveal tomorrow

ionic scarab
#

@uncut harness ever since cobra went to the dark side things haven’t been the same 😓

uncut harness
#

@uncut harness are there even any NMS youtubers anymore? L plays stopped covering. Cobra TV

bleak gorge
#

Yeah some guy at MS is gonna get an ear-full after this one

rotund perch
#

Again with the depot and store page I think we're getting a stealth release
