is it?
yeah it's possible the later images have more distortion on the symbol
I’m back, have we found anything?
some
we found math
We also found
Ooooo math
G•NPS••D•G•, or G•DPA••D•G• this
we found it through lots of assumptions
Might be worth keeping an eye out aboard the new freighters for these symbols. They could be in game already.
Did anyone catch this?
whenever I see NP I think of this from computer science https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP_(complexity)
G, unknown, D/N, ps, unknown, unknown, d, a/ae, G, unknown
@meager stag true, there might be an ingame ARG soon after all
I was so surprised that none of the glitchy tease Sean posted actually resolved in the trailer
Like... there is 100% images of planets in there, just hidden
yeah, most likely no_signal
i think it's basically random/stock glitchiness... the 2 second clip is at the end of the trailer
The YouTube trailer has way less compression, it's even clearer there. Totally made up of images.
You can make out trees and stuff, a ship at one point
Just find the new trailer from today of the hello games YouTube channel, right near the end you get the glitchy 2 seconds Sean tweeted. If you go frame by frame, there's stuff in there. People saw it right away from the tease.
Assumed it would resolve in the trailer, but it's just as glitchy there
My guess
There will be more updates coming and as each one gets revealed it would get clearer and clearer. And then the last one would be that glitched mess looking normal. It turns out that it's part of a main trailer. The big one
I mean that's the tantalising dream yeah
wait so are the logs in desolation also stuff made by Greg Buchanan?
But I can't get hyped like that again, it never pans out
I guess? Lots of them are procedural templates but some seem bespoke
Although I did two freighters and already got repeats
I can't see myself visiting them anymore tbh
Wait so are we giving up on the glyphs
seems that way
Nothing with hello games is “just” anything
It’s always something
The desolation trailer had no reason to have that full 2 seconds of static at the end of it, and it was so different to all the other static played and lasted the longest. It’s definitely something
discussed it yesterday, some clearer images of it look like 4 photos on top of eachother, and the bottom ones almost resemble trailer footage
by trailer i mean pre-release trailer footage
the top is almost certainly purple grass next to a beach
This looks like a planet
The red parts at the top corner are likely sky or space
hm
Also yes that
not really
i'm failrly certain they're different pictures (the foreground is different) but it's likely meant to evoke the same image
maybe
What if they are just random colors to convey static, and they just happen to resemble the trailer footage
so, what you guys think of this from the trailer ?
we were discussing that for the past 2-3 hours but gave up on it
ok, hm
When does the community mission start?
weekend mission? tomorrow i believe
Ok
@knotty dune this string of rune things seems like there's something there, but there's nothing there to decipher really
Around what time?
idk
xfiles.mp3
so im back
i looked through and it still looks like it's all just speculation at this point
it is all speculation, yeah
im going to make a list of what we do know
A. There are glyphs/symbols in the trailer
and CEN
B. We know these gylphs/symbols + CEN show up in the trailer multiple times
which means that it's on purpose
could be red herring or just for flavor
if I'm not mistaken this is close to how the arg 2 years ago started
we were given something small and then later received instructions on what to do with it
guess we'll wait for the instructions then
maybe they'll be in the weekend mission?
wasn't this last weekends mission like "The abyss isn't what you think it is"
idk, never did weekend missions
lol
did they do a hotfix for the freighter color and overlapping storage tabs?
lol
holy shit i have ptsd now
wait what
• is blank btw
I have PTSD too lmao
Wait
what alphabet did you use?
What error
Yrah those are the symbols
@unborn gale a few
okay
Oh
and #1 and #9, which were duplicates
can you list them
lemme find my list
Brb
so rather than using the actual letter isn't there certain meanings behind the letter or symbol itself
maybe we can a janky message or anything
G, unknown, D/N, ps, unknown, unknown, d, a/ae, G, unknown
im going to go look it up
so Gamma is G, but, what if the code is the position in the alphabet? that would make gamma 3, C
numbers holy shit
gamma is 3 in greek numerals anyway
hexidecimal mabye
all of the symbols we have derived so far can be used for math or logic. this is still where I think the solution lies
idk
i don't think we're gonna be looking at the languages of australian aboriginals though
It could be numbers
We really haven’t considered those
The entire time we’ve been focusing on Letters or mathematical symbols

so what about this we use symbols from mathematic equation and find the number value assigned to those symbols and go from there
Hey look
An ARG expert
WE ARE C O N F U S E D
also @unborn gale here’s the full thing highlighted if you missed it
Ignore the dots that have been highlighted, those were a mistake
the only thing that bugs me is the sideways hourglass
I also don’t know if the arrow one is correct
like the << one?
Yeah
so i hop into the update for the first time
first thing i see:
"New title unlocked: perfect plasminium"
IM PERFECT GUYS
The main thing is the only one that repeats is what we suspect to be “g”
someone look up all possible words with 2 g’s at those positions 😂
uh ok
Unless it’s multiple words. Then we’re screwed
Hey
GAMMONINGS GARDENINGS GARLANDAGE GAROTTINGS GASTROLOGY GATHERINGS GEARCHANGE GENECOLOGY GERATOLOGY GETTERINGS GILLRAVAGE GLACIOLOGY GLOSSOLOGY GLOTTOLOGY GNOSEOLOGY GNOSIOLOGY GOFFERINGS GOLLIWOGGS GOSSIPINGS GRAPHOLOGY GRAPPLINGS GREENLINGS GREENWINGS GROUNDHOGS GROUNDINGS GRUELLINGS GRUMBLINGS GUTTERINGS GYNECOLOGY
Look up all words with multiple g’s at those positions and no other repeating letters
it looks like it has line on top of it @upper void
i agree
Triangle, the arrows, the hour glass
Would the first one be I in pigpen?
a string of numbers
@unborn gale we already have two solid leads on the bowtie symbol. Either Dagaz (d) from an old runic pre-English language, or the math symbol for a Natural Join
k we can stick to that then
I mean we are just going off of speculation
@cinder finch what do you mean?
actually that's pretty close
so I assumed we were right about gamma
However if one of you knows pigpen cipher we could try
It would make sense for them to leave some easy ones so we get the gist. I am suprised there aren't any latin letters though 🤔
Might be a URL tbh.
The two arrows could be uu
since both lines are of equal length
So it’s iuu
then that means it's 'uu'
The hourglass could be pigpen right
nothing in pig pen resemebles that unless several letter make up the symbol
But it’s interesting if we’re saying we use pigpen cypher than it would switch
Upside down triangle is a Nabla
I mean i wouldnt be surprised if its multiple languages
pigpen plus math stuff??
I would assume that only ┌ is pigpen for now
Woah
which COULD be a thing
What'd I miss
a l o t
Amount missed: yes
Could be something like U with key U 
I know the update but what's this talk of cyphers
Oh SHIT
BREAD CRUMBS
yeet skrt skrt
What if << is actually just supposed to be < but the distortion makes it look like << since they are significantly more blurry than the two next to it.
Something to keep us occupied for now
i knew people would find something in that trailer eventually
@kind sail good point meaning in pigpen it would be "i u"
@kind sail you could be onto something actually
@astral karma here's the actually image we found the red is just for clarity
But even then looking at the patstebin of 10 letter words nothing starts with iu but it could be multiple words
i don't know if it's a word
IU is a korean pop star
doesnt have to be a word, could be a url
i think it's numbers with letters assigned to them
Wait so we need the kpop stans
or a code
oh true
It could be cords
Why couldn't it just be 16 glyphs that take us to the solar system that was used for the pre release footage
Or an sos
@kind sail because that would be to easy....
coordinates have 16 symbols right
hello games likes to watch us suffer
Not much else to do in Guildford
we should just get the kpop stans to solve this by baiting them with "IU"
It could be anything
if enough people give a solution then one of them has to be right
that's community science for you
That’s a possibility
could even just be words
try rot13
Holy crap Dwarf is back?!?!
diggy diggy hole
oh hey Dwarf, haven't seen you since the Waking Titan days on GD
theory: Someone at hello games was creating this wonderful trailer and sneezed onto the keyboard and caused all these horrendous glitches in the trailer, but Sean the Immortal was like, "oh that looks great!, well use it." And now we are stuck running around in circles.
Has anyone tried to take the image above and line up the freighter image by any chance?
It has been a while
it's honestly has been a long time like what 2 years
if anyone can solve it here, Dwarf can
Yes
don't hype me up too much 👀
It could be a URL To a waking titan video 👀👀

All day pretty much lol
any progess?
Is there a way to increase vertical look sensitivity in third person?
What about these?
I mean that looks like nothing
mmm tv static my favorite flavor
There’s more stuff in the glitches
i mean the image is really blurry it's gonna be hard to find anyhting in that
Those look like letters
imagine if it just says "Hello Games"....
Lol

They do this these for a reason
i mean, that's 10 letters.
Ten
if that's the case then i have a two story building with my name on it
The one thing I still think is really odd is that there’s multiple things in this video. There was one part that said C-E something in the static. Which we have no idea what that means and it’s even more pronounced than these glyphs
How long is a steam key? If it isn't a lore thing, then it's a game key, I bet
Why would it possibly be a game key?
steam key is longer than 10
isn't a steam key 16 characters
Well it’s not loop-16 or Emily. It’s too short
did y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-you say 1-fucking-6

but seriously
steam key is either 15 or 25
space rabies is apparently 16-borne
faints
16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16
atlas got him
US phone numbers are 10 digits
teen-teen-teen-teen
It can be 11
LOOP16 Is emily tho
we have been given phone numbers before
No wait it’s 10
haven't we
we have
Yes we have
i bet we're gonna accidentally call some random pizza hut in missouri
What haven't they done?
idk i'm floridian
i don't think HG would do phone numbers, this is not a Alice and Smith production most likely
does this look like partially obscured art to anyone else
Hey can we get a Floridian pizza?
again mmm tv static my favorite
There is absolutely something in that
looks like a cursive L
stretch it out
holy shit
I’m going to spit a theory here. THIS IS NOT FACT AND IS MEER SPECULATION. I think it’s Emily waking up and the system that is No mans sky is freaking out because it doesn’t understand Emily waking up. This is the reset we did at the end of the story line
wait
i dont see anything in that image
meerkat speculation
Holy
I don’t see how you can possibly think that
you see it too right @slow yacht
i see nothing
i see more like a building seen from overhead
If emily comes back then. That will be the biggest W of the century
These symbols look different
It’s faint
if it is, it's too garbled to be usable as a puzzle
yeah hard to seen
they're all the same
I really really really think we’re reading too much into this
yeah, all the same
Those are glitchedout glyphs @harsh pelican
Looks like the WT Glyphs
Those look like cords
They sure do
Hello dwarf and spaceman
Nice to see someone already had these lined up
That lined up image is really good
but portal glyph is 16 symbols
just need someone who knows how to work photoshop properly to overlay them with the right settings
Yes
That is my specialty
they somewhat look like nordic runes as well.
Glyphs don’t mean portals. Some times they unlock things on other sites
some of them are actually @rancid lance
i think it's better to just look at them and compare
i noticed the sideways hourglass one
dagaz and ansuz appear to be in there, though ansuz is debatable
Yup. Just like wt
hey has anyone taken the entire trailer and run it through a spectrogram
i would myself but i don't know how
i did
This is important. We don’t know if this means a new arg or continuation of Waking titan. This is all just speculation but something is happening
just download audacity, download the video and convert it to mp3
most of the symbols are math symbols, I just don't know where to go with that
then import the mp3 and enter spectrogram view
Something is definitely happening
the spectrograph looks slightly odd but it's also electronic music, so will look slightly odd anyway
oh sweet thanks man
symbols 1, 2, 3, 7 are all math notations. i haven't seen a clear enough image of symbol 4 to even make out what it is yet
After seven it should be fifteen
@glass flare if you scroll way up someone posted a version of the image cleaned up with edge detection - the 4th glyph looks to be a rotated psi
There’s also this
At around 1 minute you can see C-E very clearly
We don’t really links anything about that
2 is inequality symbol, 3 represents a gradient on a curve, 7 represents a Natural Join. if 4 is a backwards E then it means "there exists"
but the other ones we found in the spectrogram
and 1 is gamma which is used in factorial functions
I doubt it’s related to math
i think all of them are probably math related
I mean math takes symbols from everywhere
it's the only clear relationship and derivation for the majority of them
not my image
many of them have no language root, like the upside down delta. that doesn't exist as a letter
yes I get that it represents del for finding gradients on a curve but I don’t think it’s relevant here
Because how would you connect them all together into something worthwhile
and if Atlas is trying to send something through the simulation, she would probably use math to do it
"she"?
wow
well she=Emily, if making that leap
eh
well her is the thing that makes me think it's math related
it's the glitch where it shows multiple poorly erased math equations
the dark blue one is good
story wise i could see it being played out: Someone found out how to wake Emily and is trying to cover their tracks. and just like spaceman said NMS doesn't know how to deal with it. this is my personal theory
if the sequence is a code, then there has to be some pattern by which it can be decoded. i don't think it would be "use an old rune for this one, but use a math symbol for this other one" i think it has to be consistent
what are these glyphs in waking titan i've heard about? is that a thing?
It was a thing
like shouldn't we look there first
The glyphs in waking titan were a bit more complex than these
Yup there are 16 WT glyphs
WT used pretty much the portal glyphs
might be a bit of a leap in logic, but i think that we should interpret the purpose of each symbol that has a use in math as part of a message
most of the WT glyphs turned out to be icons on the in-game portals
the only thing similar to one of the old glyphs is number 4
not those
the other ones
the ones we found in a spectrogram
hang on i'll go look for htem
are they in the game detective wiki? don't remember that offhand
yes, I just linked them above
Oh more PTSD
rip ms noodles
Rip
Oh yess bob
The glyphs where used to unlock more phases of wt @rich elm
purple coords

Perhaps

those are rather complex compared to what we have though
We are a smart community. We’ll figure this out
If we did waking titan then we can do this
yeah that
That’s the spirit
i fell down the stairs today are we sure about that
"We all fall down the stairs sometimes" -put that on a platitude
6 8 and 10 are the real tough ones
oh hey my shitty key code image lol
Okay I'm going to try and outline the rest of these bloody symbols
they look like glyphs on laundry tags
Maybe the number of lines used per glyph corresponds to a letter of the alphabet
bruhs im gonna throw in other stupid theory
Emily isnt dead.lie cmon
never thought atlas needed his/her hoodie cleaned.
have fun
Dew it fox
oh jesus. those stones
Yes
oh snap e3 monoliths
it was posted before but i don't think anyone actually looked into it
where's the image from?
Pi
The file for that's still in the game. I bet one of the modders has a the unwrapped texture for it
I think what's interesting is that all these symbols aren't complex like NMS gylphs. They are extremely plain and simple. almost like caveman text kind of
the stones? the overhaul mod makes them spawn, i noticed
but never really looked at them
No triangle glyph. Likely not it
It looks like a record of an alphabet
caveman lol, well they are much like ancient Greek. i'm sure Plato would appreciate the cave comment though
Cuneiform
which itself was from phonecian
Guys this is not what this arg is called at all. ITS A JOKE!!! I call this “sleeping titan” as a joke
sleeping titan confirmed
I think the key is the gamma symbol and the reflect symbol if you find those together in a cypher you got it.
slep titan
Does anyone have access to the Wt sites. It looks like these symbols could be related
they're gone
Dang
you could maybe use archive.org
They're down
Cause it looks like myriad
im loading the website now
Or something to do with those websites
took a bit lol
Goodluck
The Atlas Foundation’s Citizen Science Division is a way for you to participate in some of the most landmark research projects of our time.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
?
Wow cant beleive it's still up WTFFFF
what happened
OH SHIT
somebody must've updated it on wayback and been in a timezone really far ahead
It is July 17th in Australia rn
yeah
Im in missouri rn
yeah, i saved the page manually like, an hour ago, just to compare it to the previous version
Its july 17 now. (Midnight)
sorry 😛
I would love to enjoy this with y’all but I must go to bed. Goodnight and good luck fellow interlopers
What sucks?
WHOA
someone dated that website which is why that date is on the website right now
one sec let me test it
Aw.
you just bang the url in here https://web.archive.org/save/
it'll go update the cache
realistically, even if we do figure out the meaning right now, we wouldn't know what to do with it
so gotta wait regardless
well it depends
@unborn gale Stop messing with time travel man
You know Atlas is watching
if it's a url then we have a website or if it's a code we can try putting into the waking titan site or something
it all depends
That site is down
it is oh rip
yeah gn
possible solutions: an alphabet, multiple alphabet, symbols, math symbols, math symbols with their meaning extracted and examined, math symbols and their numerical value used, or a combination of all these
it literally could be anything
also one more thing
it's possible we still do not have all the information yet as well
it takes out the fun, but has anyone done a datamine from the latest update?
Brute forcing didn’t really work for WT so it most likely won’t work here
would need a clue what to brute force first
there'll be a pointer some time
or maybe there already has
and we missed it
so now they're being more obvious
@fallow badge Pets are in the data, but haven't been able to really look through things
It worked on occasion
Let's not advocate black hat hacking for the sake of hype in here, if we can help it c: (this is regarding the "hack Sean's computer" statement)
One of the pets is just a little blob dude with Sean's face
i assume you can make a procedurally generated fauna your pet
@astral karma I think they were joking about that one
@rancid lance diplo pets
Pog
pretty sure that's what basically everyone assumes
Monkeyman was looking through new struct names and saw pets and sketching. Don't have any more data than that
maybe there'll be size limits as well, which is sad, but it'll be clunky af otherwise
build a wooden horse and just push it into hello games hq
@astral karma I wasn't advocating for that in any form. In future, I'll make sure statements such as those are more obviously marked as jokes. Very sorry!
fill it with donuts and coffee
Yeah just have a full sized mega diplo following you
i'd rather have my camera shake voluntarily turned off thank you.
last time i remember ark doesnt involve stuffing a whole ass diplo inside the cockpit of your one man ship
lmao
Cryopod
I wanna pet him when pulsing

and several degrees below zero
A diplo that sits in your cockpit as you pilot your ship. The only problem? It's neck is too long and it's partially hanging out of the cockpit
it’s okay if he’s a space fish
Hmmm
Questionable
Not a problem for the caesaurus
"i smell ass"
Thats an old screenshot
They moved you down the neck
I want this as a pet (that's a baby)
jesus. murder teddy-parrot-abomination-thingy
what update is that from?
Living ship
Striders?
Maybe it's because im just looking for something but the generation seems a bit defferent from when I played a lot 9 months ago
i think? they just have two oversized hind legs and are usually very very tall.
to what it is now, with more things sprouting off flora/minerals mostly
@rancid lance yes
found a mantis one in a radiated planet next to a trading outpost once
spent like 1 hour just playing with them
interesting, there's a logic method called Ariadne's Thread based around solving problems by exhausting all available solutions (i feel that right now)
the concept is used often in AI for puzzle solving
Perhaps
so i've been just looking through a bunch of alphabets and symbols and i can't find anything. If there is something to be found i think the way to solve hasn't been released yet i would bet
best bet would be Friday or Saturday around the same time Sean tweeted
Maybe I'll get something when I wake up
and the dang extremely loud landing sound that blows out my ears
yes
everytime another player lands its just BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR very loud ship noises
Shawnce
First thing they'll probably fix is the freighter bug revolving around inventory
For self later: #nms-spoilers message
Where we at with the glyphs boys?
Any news about the symbols in the Desolation trailer?
We are working on it

for future self: #nms-spoilers message
if you paste the youtube URL in here you can get pretty granular with the controls: http://www.watchframebyframe.com/, that's how I got the above
@old canopy thanks! quoting for future me
Ok so me and my buddy have realised that we get markers for each other while out of system, like the game is trying to say we could pulse drive from one system to another.
At first I didnt think anything of it and figured it was a bug.
But recently we have been getting a lot of random chance encounters that ONLY occur during pulse drive use.
Even the new freighter salvage missions can only be found during pulse drive usage.
And typically we only use the pulse drive for MAYBE 30 to 60 seconds max, no where near enough time in my opinion to fully experience the randoms events.
So what if the out of system marker and arrival times arent a bug, what if system to system pulse travel is gonna be a thing?
The void anyone?
Future me reference point again.
#nms-spoilers message
Think about the trader too, what's the point of a NPC trader contacting you over coms when the station is literally 5 to 30 seconds away.
Now if we were out in the void between stars, no stations for light years, a random NPC trader may actually be a godsend.
i wish you can pulse drive between systems, but it also gives you option to skip the journey if you need to get there quickly
orrrrrrrrrrr if they make orbital mechanics a thing then planet to planet system travel would take far longer than it does now
@gloomy echo This is actually really insightful. And makes me think that maybe the 4chan leak is correct and orbital mechanics is coming. Of course this is predicated on HG having a master plan of what they wanted to do going back a year, but on the face of it it seems reasonable that these pulse drive POIs were meant for us to be flying for 15-30 minutes from planet to planet instead of 2-5 minutes.
glyphs of?
The 4Chan leak gets true more and more everyday. We got combat and all that's next is the big proc gen and new space mechanics. I'm sure this update is the steeping stone for combat and this is a teaser.
oh wew ARG speculation
is the "Prime" title related to this or not? (you get the title after visiting a particular system apparently, I've no clue which)
in the steam announcement they mention there's still more to come this year.
yes
i quote "several more significant releases planned for the year"
its the glypgs that are hidden in the trailer were talking about
@mighty rampart might be a black hole system

@molten karma and the in game ARG might be starting now
Is the weekend mission starting?
@upper void Usually these start in... 11 hours from now on
Sorry, I suck at timezones
ah
For me it's 9 in the morning, and the weekly mission starts at 20
They start midday friday no?
Gly9hs from 65daysofstatic
alright bois and grills I am home from work
somebody give me a run down of these glyphs so I can pin them
I just got up, haven't been following
Spoopy ships
That shouldve been the update name
Recommend max volume, headphones and lights off.
No Mans Sky: Spooky Ships
No no....Spoopy
ah sorry
Hmm so I went to 3 freighters and none of them had infested stuff on them just some jellyfish. How common are people finding those to be
did you go to different systems?
Yeah I went to different systems each time
the freighter layouts were totally different. One had a lot more turrets and robots the other two were mostly empty
My first blush feeling is they need to significantly turn up the aggressiveness and/or number of enemies. Maybe I should try on Survival
I hope they keep expanding the concept... Maybe throw in some simple puzzles or a rare boss fight/tougher enemy variant to break up the pace.
whoever decided on not having the jetpacks work is a brilliant genius
makes the whole thing all the more unnerving because you cant move around fast enough
and it really does feel like space walking
Playing in VR with the audio turned all the way up freaked me the fuck out with some of the creepy noises
Kept thinking there was someone in my house lmao
Bruh i would be smacking into everything anyways
also the flashlight having sway
Is it hard? For someone who only played 10hr
Not at all
The ones I have done are not
Its an exploration based game.
It's more about the mood
Alright nice
Yeah
it will be kinda hard if you dont have any weapon to fight against the bots
they do hefty damage
especially the turrets but they're avoidable if you're decent at stealth
There are turrets?
I got a pretty good multi tool with the standard weapon and the shotgun thing
4 ships visited, nothing was shooting at me
yeah its proc gen
I've only done 1 so far
it only had turrets and drones
infestation was just blobs that gave living slime if you smashed them
I wonder...could someone with better video editing skills than me, download the Desolation trailer, and make a video with only the static bits where the glyphs are shown?
speaking of, goddamn the animations are AAA tier
maybe . . .
I'm just going through the trailer frame by frame looking for something
anything to scratch that old WT itch 😛
there are the symbols at ~frame 12 and at around 1:05
as in there are 2 parts that say the symbols
the same string of symbols appears in quite a few of the static bits
I tried to fiddle with edge detection apps online to get a clearer idea of those symbols
But I suck at this so...
I think we have the base string already
but good on ya fam c:
let me find it and pin it here, for now
Don't bother, it's shit anyway
we're discussing making a temporary #glyph-investigation if this gets any kind of traction
Since I have no idea what are the parameters for the detection algorithms
this is what I thought was the base string
(see pin)
no idea how legit that is though
I think that could be it
Yeah, looks good
Some folks tried to add some arrows and curved lines
But I don't think that's right
credit to @unborn gale for that one, there might be a cleaner version floating around
Morning all, any progress?
What is that?
Hah that was mine, sneaky fox stole it
there's a glyph string hidden in the static of the Desolation trailer, @stuck steeple
Oh
I have the originals, I’ll gather all I found last night into one place ok a little while, I just got up
that would be much appreciated, so I can pin it c:
Maybe If the reset would happen someday it will be new glyphs?
I'm doing a frame by frame pass of the trailer now
Yeah that’s what I did. Not a huge amount in there other than the symbols appearing in a couple of places throughout, and the no signal text
Wow that's some serious research right there
no signal text?
Interesting
I'm also working on a theory that the black and white bits are trying to spell something, it looks like there might be the tops and bottoms of letters in that part of the static
but that's currently tinfoil unless I can get some bearing on it
the no signal thing is nothing probably
Apparently it’s pretty much confirmed that the final two seconds of the video contain landscapes of some kind, because in the trailer video it’s much clearer to see
There’s one particular frame towards the end where that’s pretty clear @astral karma but I couldn’t make anything out, you might spot something I didn’t
(By confirmed, I mean it is pretty clear)
I'm asking around for someone to download the trailer, cut the actual gameplay bits, and post a video of nothing but the static
Ooooooo very good idea
?
But low quality ok Twitter
Ok I see some text there but can't read it.
I see some text in the first 20 sec of the trailer
No, the original glitch on twitter was only the end two seconds of the desolation trailer
But I'm on mobile
Actually yeah you’re right. Defo longer than 2 seconds
so the glitch at the end does have landscape for sure?
It’s really interesting, because it’s almost like Sean really wants us to focus on the last two seconds. They don’t contain any info on the desolation update, and don’t add to the trailer reveal of the update, yet he posted them on twitter and they clearly have stuff in them
Here are the two clearest shots of the symbols, without my doodles...
Some of the symbols could be interrupted in other ways
i am pretty sure the 2nd symbol from the left, has a dot inbetween the lines
its hard to see on most of the frames
Yeah
@old canopy did you notice on your frame pass that the string stays in the same spot in every burst it appears?
oh, i thought i noticed that
yup
Yeah
alright just making sure I'm not crazy lol
Hello, can people resume me the recent stories from community mission, or a link please ?
Haha
You using the frame by frame tool to analyse?
lol I'm literally using the , and . keys to frame by frame it on YT
that is a great site, holy crap
I’m going to struggle to get work done today, going to be distracted by this 😄
ima try and get static video clips and put them together.
you are the best human, @knotty dune ❤️
Since we dont know the unicode characters I'm gonna write em down and try the reverse image search
Last I was here we thought we had something going, and then a war broke out over it it was letters or math symbols and we all gave up
this isn't braille, right? The third part has me thinking no, as it doesn't correspond to any English braille so far as I can tell
Symbols 1 and 9 are the same, right?
looks like it
@crisp fern Morse?
Can we have a temporary channel for the static discussion like with the melody of the egg?
Yea that's be awesome
aight gimme a sec
Anything new?
#glyph-investigation has been created; if you'd like to fall down the rabbit hole of analyzing single frames of a video, head on over there c:
thanks
Ok
No aliens showed up in my derelict freighter
Sad face
Just robots and turrets. Still a creepy atmosphere, though.
The sound design and lighting are fantastic
After the whole Next landscape theories and whatever I am also stepping away from the whole trailer analysis thing
wait no they just hired some folks for storywriting, so maybe it is something
the same people who apparently did Atlas Rises stuff
which was also the same time WT came up
solid possibility there being something in the trailer, then
Didn't the patch notes say it changed the sentinel spawn waves? They seem the same to me....
It mentioned more reinforcements yes
I havent tried that myself yet
Yes and instead we have derelict freighters for now. Hence why I said I'm really trying not to dive into it again.
for some reason this puts me in the mind of a PCB
Wait that actually exists? O_o
pretty sure it doesnt
I thought the flame thrower was just a meme thing
I think they meant to ask if it exists
Screenie?
oh you mean Animus Beam
what the fuck
Did you find that today?
Well I don't think I've seen that O-o
I wonder if it's new and they forgot to add it as unlockable
that's definitely new and pretty sure patch notes said nothing about new weapons
yeah i found it when i bought a new gun
found it here
leaked 3.0 updoot
Hero, thanks
I saw somewhere there was a text string added for generated bases next to the derelict freighter strings. I could see the next update being a ground combat update to expand on this foundation. Maybe it's meant for that
Seems pretty likely yeah
or its probably because its literally using base components in derelict freighters such as the teleporter
and wanted to keep it consistent
its been a while we saw stuff like turrets in the base parts category
hmm
well some similar proc gen dungeon system could be implemented with planetary ruins for example
Would love that
One specific thing I'd like (but I doubt would ever happen) is a few cosmetics with procedural elements
And have them as rewards for dungeons
the incinerator mines fast, but it appears it only gets half of the resources as the mining beam
range of about 15u
I think all weapons behave like this
@tame sleet how does the incinerator look like?
i posted a pic in screenshots
ah
oh you mean the fire?
apparently it looks like a flamethrower
perfect for the gross critters in freighters tbh
Yea, does it shoot literal flames?
like a stream of big flame?
And can I unlock the tech from anomaly?
posted screenshot in screenshots
i dont remember seeing the incinerator in anomaly research
its not there
seems like they slipped that one in by accident or it was supposed to be there in the first place but didnt add it properly
after all the patch notes said nothing about new weapon tech, just that the ricochet is now a separate tech
i think it would be the former as the incinerator has nothing to do with derelict freighters which is the theme of the patch
it kinda does though
full Alien Isolation vibes
and we didnt have a weapon like this before, all weapons are projectiles or a sniper beam
it probably is a projectile weapon with flame sprites
I am happy I was mostly spot on in my idea of derelict freighters

Damn you predicted like a year ago

sean really let himself go with that beard
tru
possibly in the next update
just like we got to know there's a new multitool weapon
seems like another pulse engine upgrade, hmm
Or is it that one module from legacy versions
that doesnt show up in the catalogue
If you played since day 1, you have it, but it was rendered obsolete in NEXT or smt
unless you already had it
Isn't that the photonix core?
ya, but it only shows up for legacy saves
so either this is a bug and its showing for non legacy players
or they're planning to bring it back
That's what I'm asking, since I got the game on New Year's Eve
if you got the game after the Next update you wont see it in the catalogue
If the incinerator had mods it would be really cool tbh
ok yep it is photonix core
If the incinerator had mods it would be really cool tbh
too early to say either way
@uncut harness looks like an anomaly detector
It's fun to use, I mean
but its not official so it can have mods unless its already pretty OP
and yeah that's the anomaly detector
Ok, thanks for clarification
Maybe the flamethrower is a mission-specific weapon, like the Animus Beam
It also has no upgrades
could be, yeah
Maybe there is a quest that will feature this weapon
"burn these plants down to reveal a path" trope
Like purging the infestation
or maybe they planned on us flamethrowing those gooey doors
and scrapped it midway
good decision if true
Yeah, I can't see myself swapping to another weapon just for this one purpose
Still, it'd be cool to find a MT with it installed
Just for the sake of having a collector's piece
Tbh I think it's just another weapon to use
It fits perfectly with the infestation theme
Either it's bugged and not unlockable or it's not supposed to be in there at all yet
What's been datamined?
Monkeyman saw struct names for pets and 'sketching'
Haven't been able to look much. He won't have time to update MBINC until at least Sunday and can't look a lot until then
Oh ok
The incinerator isn't useless as is though tbh. It does way more damage than unmodded weapons, it seemed. I could take out sentinels with it quick enough
Does it work?
But the range is a bit eh
Where can I get the blueprint?
Yeah range is worse than scatter haha
you have to stand right under it to reach the walkers face
There is no blueprint for it
We'll fix that next week, get some proper iron man flame throwers :p
maybe some upgrades to make it actually reach something
I want to try to mod them onto the mech, but not sure if it's possible
make it bigger and give it two flamethrowers
Yeah it wouldn't take a lot to make it a favorite. Just some range, fire rate maybe, and more aoe perhaps
Oh btw. Deterministic asteroids open up a possibility for an asteroid base
Maybe lingering fire damage
with those terraformable voxel asteroids
I'll see later tonight if they fixed space building
you are not supposed to build in space yet
Supposed to and can are two different things :p
That's something I can mess with without mods
If u land on an asteroid via frigates, can you build a base and does that stay?
