I do hope they have more than a single new hire though, purely just to help out as I'm sure the workload is pretty intense. But assuming some new person came in and is the whole reason for some new content is weird
Oh, that's just because in my experience stuff usually changes when the people involved change.
maybe they'll hire some people interested in their original vision
I do development too, I have seen some amazing stuff, both good and bad, following leadership and team changes
There are surely a number of people they can look to for achieving that vision
That's true too, but we don't really know their internal roadmap or development style so it's hard to say whether it's anything to do with a team change as opposed to a workflow change or roadmap or something else
i don't believe that's actually true
i think it's taken way too literally like everything else people hear him say
sean said they plan way less than we'd think
that could mean so many things though
it's not like they all wake up and have a random thought and then it gets put into the game a week later. I'm sure they have some sort of brainstorming stuff or give some devs some freedom. I think that's how Beyond came about from what I remember
but there needs to be a plan for micro updates once the theme is decided because that's how things are delivered
he may have just meant "we don't plan a year ahead for where we want the game to be and what content to add"
right, though they originally didn't want to do a big beyond update
it just ended up big
yeah, it seems they've moved away from that style as well
unless..
more towards the initial strategy of updates every few months
which is reinforced by Sean saying they have several big things planned for the rest of the year, given that's only 5 more months
Pretty sure that stuff like Desolation is what qualifies as 'big' now
I don't disagree at all
we gotta way until the end o' the year to decide on that, since we're only in July
yup
those navigation stations give the UA of the current system in "raw" format. It's slightly different to the portal address, as that doesn't have the galaxy in it. The portal address for so&so's screenshot would be 0059FC4BB522.
@violet narwhal wat? Current system as in the one you're in when you find it? But then, it shouldn't take you to a different star system if used as portal coordinates?
If you put in the coordinates as it gives them, it'll probably do the "portal link failed" thing or whatever, at least for that example. If it works, it'll send you to somewhere near where you started.
If you put the properly-converted portal code in, it should take you to where you were when you found that thing.
I need that title
Yea blowing 800 on that seems pointless
I might consider it but I dont even play MP lol😁
800?!
Given how many folks are asking around how to get the Watched title, I think I'll pick it instead
Seems kinda rare
When do the nexus missions change?
The watched one is interestinh
oh they changed already, guess its new ones every time you check it?
hmm?
If I remember correctly the description for unlocking says "robot_death"
So either die by sentinel
Or wait for this new death to be implemented
Or maybe the derelict drones?
Death by sentinel? Is that even possible?
I thought death only could be achieved by applying a grenade launcher to the surrounding landscape.
Tbf I've been killed by them a few times lol
That's the only way, now that I think about it. Why would HG make impossible tasks? @uncut harness
So the most obvious approach is to just leave geology cannon lying around
in hope that a sentinel would pick it up and use it
but that's a dead end
because sentinels dont have arms
Well played HG
I doubt Watched is about dying
The Watched?Its description is "Tracked by Korvax"
I liked that armor until I saw it on a filthy Vy'keen
Not worth QS 👀
Well, unless you like Vy'keen, maybe
If you put the properly-converted portal code in, it should take you to where you were when you found that thing.
@violet narwhal maybe it used to, but it doesn't anymore, at least when converting using this: https://nmsportals.github.io/
@uncut harness
Try getting killed by korvax ships maybe?
Yeah, not just like that, as I said... Their number given by the navigation system was 00005900fc4bb522 and as a portal address that'd be 0059FC4BB522.
EXP_SCAVENGER_8
That's the stat that it looks for
EXP stands for explorer which is obviously the korvax
Scavenger is interesting though
Maybe the debris that we dig up?
🤷♀️ well using the old coordinate converter has it take you, uhh, more interesting places so
Yeah... If you get the coordinates of the system and compare them to what the beacon thing gives, you'll see what I mean.
i really want to create a meme of all the people wanting NMS to look more realistic.
make another image from screenshots of people saying "variation"
take a screenshot of Elite: Dangerous or something
Take a screenshot of a Space X rocket launch.
a few shots of NMS biomes, then a few shots of places you can land in Elite: Dangerous
"realism amirite?"
"spacex rocket launch" r/ksp disc would eat that up
good idea. plus proving a point that there's a ton of other space games that go for full realism visually.
almost every other one tbh
Yeah if someone wants realism they should play elite dangerous
darn tootin
Elite Dangerous doesn't let you walk
Imagine shooting for realism and forgetting to implement walking
I also had to pay to enjoy the fruits of the new updates of ED. Imagine paying for a big update. 😤
In short, No Man's Sky good. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Can someone help me, i need to find apollo's contactperson, the missions says he is on the map, but i cant find him there
@mortal blade Go to the space station and talk to all of the Gek there. One of them will be right
I have already done the translater and have spoken with apollo
His contact is your Overseer, which will be Gek. Talk to every Gek
Okey Thanks
is there a list on how to get every title yet orr
Finally my first activated indium farm
Only 50 million an hour though that’s gotta change
Y 🤢
Lol
Like huge wheat prairies
I just want to gently carress the wheat with my hand as I walk through them and think about better times
Yes would be pretty
And. Alien wheat prairies
I made a page for titles and their little texts they show in the modifier, Im a few short though if anyone's got em https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Player_Titles mostly towards the end and merchants guild rank 8
trying to figure that one out also
something about vy'keens i think
I think it means finding one of the lore ruin places
boundary failures?
Boundary failured are telamon and atlas stuff
I assume vykeen plaques and ruins?
Theres one for each race. Convergence and First Spawn too
Do the titles at the very end correspond to deaths? Like the Irradiated or Frozen?
Or just time spent in the extreme conditions
@vestal ledge I'd think those titles (Irradiated, Frozen) correspond to time spent on hazardous worlds.
There's nothing else I can think of.
After all, they wouldn't encourage you to commit suicide by exposure, riiiiiiight...?
wtf why is Hesperus missing
he's working from home
How do I make a butt Ton of nanites
several ways, such as derelict freighters, or my personal prefference which is buying ships on trading stations to scrap them to sell the modules
can't wait to see wtf is happening tomorrow
Halo infinite
hmm
Yes, those are death related titles. If you want me to look up the requirements for certain titles, let me know which ones
The game file requirements that is
I hope for a dev blog when tier 3 is completed
xbox progression seems to have slowed down after everyones gamepass subscription expired
Idk if that's the 💼
For anyone wondering, here are the latest freighter upgrade module ranges:
Freighter Hyperdrive C: 50-100ly
Freighter Hyperdrive B: 100-150ly
Freighter Hyperdrive A: 150-200ly and 100% fuel efficiency
Freighter Hyperdrive S: 200-250ly and 100% fuel efficiency
Freighter Fleet Speed C: 1-5%
Freighter Fleet Speed B: 5-10%
Freighter Fleet Speed A: 10-14%
Freighter Fleet Speed S: 15%
Freighter Fleet Fuel C: 1-5%
Freighter Fleet Fuel B: 5-10%
Freighter Fleet Fuel A: 10-15%
Freighter Fleet Fuel S: 15-20%
Freighter Fleet Combat/Trade/Exploration/Mining C: 1-5%
Freighter Fleet "" B: 5-10%
Freighter Fleet "" A: 10-14%
Freighter Fleet "" S: 15%
Pin please
it'd be nice to get this pinned in #nms-questions too
Fleet upgrades 🤔 r they in derelicts
Oh damn
HG really messed up abandoned stations
I teleported to one via anomaly and ended up outside
That's...inconvenient
Thankfully I didnt lose life support and hazard protection and was able to reload a save
@haughty rover Yes
Interesting
How did they mess this up? I've heard people cant even enter the stations now
And teleoorting to them matrons you outside
You can enter at least some of them, but I think some still have problems with the tractor beam range
TIL the old station interiors were literally the planet side buildings if you look from the outside
@grizzled apex The current interiors behind the sliding doors are still just planet side buildings
The ones behind the kiosks
Yea that's what I was talking about
Oh that
Lol sorry
I didnt know that
Looks funny in photo mode tbh
Especially as the windows look like open doors in a vacuum
there is literally just a planetary building plapped behind the slidey doors
Kind of lazy but I dont blame HG. They just copied over an existing asset.
There wasnt a need to make a new asset so that makes sense
The space behind the back of the station is just a huuuuge black void
And its all rendered
Interesting thing.
As of 2.61, landing in derelicts doesn't hide planets
@wind panther Is the freighter class spawn rate controlled by INVENTORYTABLE?
I have no idea on that
The rest of their data is in there, so I assume so, but assumptions can be wrong.
Ship spawn rates are controlled by InventoryTable, I know that much
And the same data for ships is available for freighters in InvTable, so I assume so
What confuses me though, is that I can't find the Frigate info in there
It looks like Frigates are completely controlled by other assets
I've not got my hopes up but maybe we'll see some NMS stuff at the xbox thing later
I still believe there's a chance coz all the Xbox NMS tweets
hooooo boy theres gonna be a lot of waiting with the living ship quest isnt there
Dunno ya can't max slot em
Not everything needs to be statistically the best
They're fun and look absolutely awesome
you don't really need to max slot them cause they have massive tech storage so you don't need to bleed upgrades into your main inventory, meaning it can be purely for storage
and some people don't play the game just to min-max everything, i like my living ship and haven't had issues with it
Plus they have really nice base damage
Oh cool
Not long now till the xbox showcase
I'm not expecting anything from nms but you never know, especially with the xbox tweets
When is the xbox showcase?
This thing?
Tune in for the Xbox Games Showcase and a first look at Xbox Exclusive games such as Halo Infinite from 343 Industries. This is the stream for EVERYTHING that you want to know about the games coming to Xbox & the Xbox Series X!
Xbox On is YOUR home for everything Xbox. Join B...
Says 50 minutes
Probably pre-show
@tepid iris I'm only seeing the one Desolation trailer tweet from Xbox. What other NMS mentions are you referring to?
probably this one: https://twitter.com/XboxDACH/status/1286198109064671239
That's the only other one I'm aware of tho
they've been tweeting out a couple of times in the past weeks
mostly gifs of geks in THe Nexus
First Spawn update confirmed
XBox exclusive heh
Wasn't Next announced on a Xbox show?
Possible, I can't remember
Interesting
A gek sitting on a couch definitely feels like they're hinting at something
Yeah, why would they choose NMS of all things? 🤔
Oh wait, wasn't it added to the GamePass?
In June I believe
Huh
Then maybe it's just that
They're using a popular game that was recently added to the Gamepass service
I hope to be proven wrong
¿por qué no los dos?
Yeah, I hope it's something more
eh i think it's just marketing since it was added to gamepass recently
I hope we something nms related on the show
Yeah Gamepass marketing makes sense

Since it was doing well on there
HG be like ' we gave them an update a week ago can't they just be happy?'
It's not our fault they have been teasing us
I am still very happy with the last update and I wouldn't mind waiting another 2.5/3 months 😛
😖
A winter planetary variety overhaul would be nice
I'm happy as well but dont you think the desolation trailer was the full trailer?
Not enough emotional variety updates, no contentedness, only hunger for more assets
It was a full trailer with some static aesthetics yes. 😛
I mean, I think maybe the trailer just was intended to be so "glitchy"
they didn't even think about the static at the end
What gives that away the most is the off-center logo placement
I've read something about a "second static" at Sean's Twitter but I can't find it
That cements it as a visual thing
what are these people talking about?
That's unfortunate :(
Of course, "it's just static" doesn't have to mean there isn't something in the next 1/2 months. I mean they said updates plural for the remainder of the year. So expecting two between the size of EXO Mech and Desolation is more than reasonable. 😛
That is reasonable
And aside from that we'll see what they surprise us with this time. 😄
I mean updates are almost never what we predict them to be.
The next one will be no exception. 😛
Which I do love
Sometimes
I hope they continue building on the dungeon stuff tho
Definitely. Along with Mario and Sonic.
At first I thought of waking titan
No Luigi?
When I saw his tweet
No because Luigi never gets love.
Sentinel Waluigi
Oh we are trained to overthink due to things like Waking Titan, but honestly I feel like we push it too far sometimes.
Cuz suddenly random static is bright colors from V1 and variety update confirmed.
preshow starting now
Oh, thanks for the heads up!
I wish they added more planet-specific filters
Like the chromatic red/grey ones?
Yeah
If we do ever get variation stuff that's the one thing I'm pretty damn sure would be in there
If not for the fact that the current system for it is a bit broken 😄
HG be like ' we gave them an update a week ago can't they just be happy?'
@nocturne zephyr bUt SeAN sAId mANY MoRE uPDaTEs ThIs yEaR!!!
Lol I know
people want variation
:fist:
TrAveLlEr fOr SmAsH brOs
Nada and Polo for Smash Bros
Now that I think of it... HG is working on a game they haven't announced yet
Imagine that's what gets revealed
Or maybe that was the last campfire? Damn I don't remember
It was only mentioned in 2019, and Sean said it was in the very beginning concepting phase
So probably not for another couple years
Honestly TLC has a good chance, probably will come out soon
So if i go into the center of a galaxy with my living ship, does everything in its tech inv stay fixed or will it get broken?
Also, is there any way to choose what type of galaxy or is that a one time thing?
once per save, yes
Oh, the stream I linked to is lagging pretty badly
Gamespots' running better
Tune into the July edition of Xbox Games Showcase to see what Microsoft has in store for Xbox Series X games. We'll get to see more of Halo Infinite, as well as more news, trailers, and world premieres.
@dense knot There is a group called Pangalactic Star Cabs that will take you to any galaxy for free. They have a Discord, too.
So, nothing NMS related.
obviously!
🤔
I was wondering if TE wasn't VR only, turns out it is not
is it lucky that after i reset i got eissentam?
or is it first galaxy after the one youre currently in that is lush/desolate/etc?
If you pick a Lush galaxy at the end, you get Eissentam
if you reset from any galaxy before Eissentam, to lush (the green orb), you will always be put in Eissentam
the second most popular galaxy
i got hilbert dimension after i wen tthrough, and it sucks
no idea what i picked though it was like 150 hours of gameplay ago
i want to scream every time someone tries to defend the Starbirth mission chain timegates as realism. Realism, for an alien egg, do these folks hear themselves?
e g g
so eggs in real-life take time to hatch so clearly any egg should take time to hatch 🙄
even candy eggs should be waited upon to hatch candy, it's just science
On the Atlas-Path mission it always seems to plot a course that involves two jumps even though I have the range to reach the Atlas station. Is there a reason for that? Is it meant to be the most efficient route?
Yeah probably.
may also be assuming you don't have a good enough ship to jump directly
Possibly but my ship is good enough to as I just now did it skipping the intermediary system. Its not a problem, just a bit odd and I like to understand these sorts of things.
yeah i think it may be that it doesn't check what ship you have and plays it safe, guiding you as if you have a less capable ship
This was a spooky find in an Atlas encounter. I don't know what any of it means.
the tribunal has decided your fate
@crisp fern My next atlas station has two stops plotted on route. Going to check this time whether sum of the 3 jumps is shorter than the single jump to see if it is most efficient route.
I have a real life living ship. Can confirm it takes 7 days to hatch.
Nope, the distance for the 3 jumps was just slightly longer than if I had just done the one jump so its not the most efficient route. So not sure why it splits the jump up into multiple short jumps.
A "real life" living ship. Cool!
that's a chicken, not a living ship
what happens if i dont reach the center of the galaxy in 16?
nothing really
Probably a newb question, but does anyone know what the different planet symbol for the Luroin-Pokasi system means in this screen shot? Rather than just a little white square, one of the planets looks to be in a circle crosshair symbol.
Sorry, probably the wrong channel for that type of question. Will ask in the help channel.
if i reset the galaxy does it remain euclid?
no, you end up going to one of the other 255 galaxies
eventually you might end up back at euclid though
can i tele back?
yes
okay easy
@cinder spoke you have a waypoint on the system
Hehe, yeah someone else just told me that. I feel silly.
The couch and table arent centered / aligned D:
Found an anomaly detector. Is it basically a derelict freighter detector?
it can detect other things
so it has a chance of detecting derelicts, but not always
Ah okay. Thanks!
We were talking about freighter upgrades yesterday. The max vanilla freighter hyperdrive distance is just shy of 6200ly; I was able to manage 6168.7. If you use the save editor, seed 9121 will give you 250ly on the upgrade module.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2175905203
What's the quickest way to the center if I don't want to do the Artemis line of quests?
@harsh pelican black holes, but also the Artemis Path doesn't literally take you to the center anyway
It lets you jump galaxies, and some read that as it taking you to & through the center, but I don't agree with that interpretation personally @harsh pelican
Why don't you? If it's alright to ask
Because it's left ambiguous, you go through a portal get warped to an Atlas Interface and make your choice. You never really get the opportunity to see if it's anywhere near the center, and you don't actually enter any portal coordinates that might take you near the center, so 🤷♀️
Plus the center doesn't give you any choice, so both narratively and mechanically they're distinct enough to not consider the same.
Though on review, apparently Beyond makes it so going the Artemis Path & making the choice to jump galaxies does count towards the achievement of going through the center so 🤷♀️
@wind panther my freighter can reach 6361ly
maybe different freighters have different hyperdrive bonuses
@crisp fern That last bit is what threw me. Thank you for the explanation!
@tame sleet Could you get me a screenshot of your tech upgrade layout? I could have the adjacency setup wrong. I gave the freighter the maximum base value according to what I found in the files
@wind panther
And then the drive and three more upgrades on the general tab?
yes
You don't have the save editor installed do you? I'm curious what the base stat of your freighter is
If you don't mind, that would be interesting to know
180.7
Hmm, that matches perfectly, and I made my layout exactly like yours and still only get 6169.6
Yeah, mine is at 8.0 as well

That's the warp cell usage, I think
Maybe the fleet coordination adds to it in a hidden calculation?
I'll play around some more
i cant see why fleet should have anything to do with warp range
but its hello games i guess
Or there's an upgrade I'm missing?
you have the same number of modules as I do
Your upgrade modules are around 250?
yes 247
Weird. I tried all the other tech modules, storage space, fleet coordination, and model, but nothing else changes my range
did you put reality dethreader at the center of the square
Yep, I copied yours exactly
I changed to your layout and lost 1 ly
Yeah, I gained 1 when I changed to yours, so that matches up
I can't imagine what I could be missing
Only sean knows I guess
Yeah, it's still pretty close, so I'll just forget about it for now 🙂
I'm just going to assume the maximum is a tiny bit shy of 6400ly
GULAG is an acronym apparently
when you go to the center and through, is the main storyline supposed to start over or not?
It's just struck me, why are ""ancient bones"" only a few hundred years old? Another product of atlas malfunctioning? Should be at least thousands if not millions...
ive seen a few that were thousands and tens of thousands iirc, not much tho. I guess you have to find epic/legendary level ones for the cool stuff
When do you think Sean will start hinting at stuff for next update
Judging from the previous dev blogs and update announcements this year, I believe it's shortly after tier 3 is completed on all platforms @last anchor
Approx 1 week possibly. Xbox seems to drag behins other platforms atm but last time they got a suspicious boost right before announcement. So if xbox tier suddenly catches up with PC and PS4, they are yet again boosting it
Not to mention people found out there are more titles to come
The ones we got now are for the Explorers guild
We still got Mercenaries and Traders to come
qs for titles... not funny
What happened to the glyphs channel? Was it ever deciphered?
no because the video in itself was not made by HG but some third party from whom they licensed the video from
which had those glyphs
so in NMS terms they really dont mean anything
Unfortunate
@uncut harness Upcoming QS rewards got datamined?
I completely missed that
Anything cool coming soon? I remember something about a 'hero backpack'
I dunno, I'm just repeating what I heard from other folks here
I'm hoping greg buchanan leaks something abt him working on something
We got a hint about more story in the form if weekend missions from him before it was announced officially
He wrote the derelict logs too
And he recently submitted some game writing
God I'm hoping it's for nms
He be working on b o o k
And not the weekend missions
The current weekend missions last until september iirc?
@nocturne zephyr he 🅱️ 🇪
Might get something in a month or so
I believe so
Seems like HG have asked him to write a lot of stuff
According to his tweet there is still more
He wants to "Share more" of his writing
Maybe new story? Hopefully a new big mission
Maybe new evolving story about the Atlas dying
Hey everyone do you remember that time we watched a trailer and saw some glyphs and concocted an elaborate conspiracy last week?
Good times.
I feel like HG didn't bring him back on to just do Desolation
I think Desolation is leading to something larger
2021 summer update
Huh. That gives me a meme idea
The update is the book
you ask polo to read it to you
3200 QS gets you the audiobook version read by a Vy'keen
Grah! No variety for you, pathetic interloper!
Death to variety Death! Death! Death! Death! Grah!
So he also wrote for Metro Exodus
Yup
got a few scarejumps playing that game
Oh for sure, it's got some creepy gameplay
So what do you think Desolation would lead to then?
Visions 2.0
Uhm, Gemini, you ok buddy?
Glassy eyes? Geknip is clearly involved
some ppl wait 7 days to read those community missions texts... and it's broken...
number 4 was broken, 6 is too
Material is 16 || Crystal Sulphide ||
Yep RES_D_19 isn't a thing
Theres A. B and C
Guys I dont know if you heard but yesterday I was just casually interacting with a korvax at the space station yesterday and he put binary code on the dialogue box. (01000001 01010100 01001100 01000001 01010011) it translates to ATLAS. this is very weird and has never happened in my almost 4 years of playing.....
I've run into exactly one guy that has spoken to me in binary, but it was a while ago and I didn't bother to look it up
(wth, used the wrong finger on the emoji earlier, sorry, wasn't intended at all)
I was told to ask here. Anyone know what the item for this weekend's mission is?
Crystal Sulphide
thanks
16
s i x t e e n
Innes, pls make NMS good again!
but, it is good
when did Innes leave HG?
idk he went on a very long hike
Who's innes
programmer, worked on world generation
honestly don't know if he's still with HG
Went on a long hike apparently
i dont think he works there anymore
but sean is still friends with him
didnt he worked on star citizen???
So what hazards are there in the abandon freighters
@sullen sundial Some ceiling-mounted auto guns. A few security drones. Mini monstrosities.
None particularly noteworthy if you're carrying a scatter blaster.
Well good thing my tool has that
"Say hello to my little friend!"
Maybe I should put on God mode too
I don’t think Sean’s tweet means anything
@hybrid pendant nah that was another employee that left early on
yeah that tweet has nothing to do with NMS
VaRieTy
Don't you think it's sort of messed up that from NMS's lore you're basically in the mind of a dying god trying to remember it's creator
The storyline is absolutely Brilliant
Stupid question, but when you hit the center of Euclid, do you literally start over in the next galaxy from scratch?
@burnt locust not from scratch u get to keep ur progress
Ahh. Okay. Ive honestly spent 120 hours in the first galaxy trying NOT to get to the center because i had heard you start over
@burnt locust center is just a new game plus
you will keep everything but tech will be broken and need fixing
Ah.
are there anything new datamined
Not for real 😛
So Artemis was already dead when you first contacted them?
o.o
Because Nada seemed to imply it had been a very long time.
Unless you want spoilers then don't read. ||Artemis was dead when you first contacted them||
Right, I was okay with spoilers given how far I am on this road. Are there any lasting effects to either choice? `
Annd I forgot how to do spoiler tags.
The only changes would be some dialogue that shows up
Spoiler tags are /spoiler
||this is how||
How can I do it after some words /spoiler wonder if this works
Nope
Do derelict freighter upgrades from different systems have different stats?
Hey does anyone have screenshots of the weekend mission dialogue from the anomaly NPC?
Since it was bugged
I'll be doing it a little later so I can send them to you
Hopefully you don't get the bug as well
I’m at the end of the Artemis questline
Anyone know what the best option to choose is?
I don't think I will. What was the bug anyway?
Ah I see
Weird
Have you sent a Zendesk for it?
I'm sure plenty of people have
True
I thought it was just our boy Gemini breaking free of the simulation and becoming one with the family of glass or some shizz
What is that supposed to be
Mission dialogue that looks like it couldn't be retrieved
Console users should be aware too, I tried to group up with another individual and when I tried to warp to his system, it froze my game and caused my console to restart 
HG fixing minor bugs ----> gemini becoming possesed goblin 
What's the item for Toward the Void this weekend?
😹
we're doomed
same, he spoke goblin to me as well
I’m on the last Artemis mission and I’m confused on what to do
Anyone got any suggestions?
It just says “reach the center of the galaxy”
But I can also go towards the atlas station
What do I do
So basically just go to the atlas interface?
Will I still get the portal glyphs?
That’s what I’m really looking for
yes
Okay
@leaden socket have you received all of the glyphs yet?
@leaden socket Once you have all the glyphs, ATLAS Path will point you toward a Portal and give you the portal coordinate for a connecting world you can jump to the center from.
ah yes
Also something about them getting cooler tails
who mentioned that? haven't seen anything about tails
Copypasta
monkeyman19207/19/2020
and they have added a way to add gravity to things (I think how they make gravity work in the abandoned things)
so if people make custom dungeons you could make rooms with sideways gravity and such which would be neat
also possibly grav chambers on planet
it also looks like hG have made a number of improvements or are in the process of improving animals
there has been a lot of new structs relating to the tails of animals randomly haha
and they have added a new property relating to animal swarms called 'can land' implying I guess that it may allow flying creatures to land?
@hybrid pendant Is that from new datamining?
@uncut harness do u have the link when he said that
yeah
soo using anti gravity for custom rooms
that be cool
that could be used for real 0G in space
https://twitter.com/SirHenny3/status/1287081620177133569
@hybrid pendant whoa, that is going to be so cool!
I also just want more freighter stuff. Especially being able to have more than one freighter summoned in one system would be nice
there a moid for that
how does that work in multi for ppl who don't have it?
mods are client sided not server sided so it works like that u be able to use and see ur mods but the ppl who dont use the mods wont
yeah but it doesn't break it for them that there are potentially two player freighters?
I guess not since the game just prevents the summoning
Maybe improving current freighter interactiona before allowing us to own more freighters would be a better first approach
So cool about those data mined features
Yeah that sounds exiting
And finally we could get birds that can land
I like the gravity stuff
^ now that is a very good question since his gud friend Hesperus went missing for days now
he was rejoicing because ariadne "returned"
Ariadne is there
"Rejoice!" And then, something that prompted me to go through a portal and search for mr. owl.
so what's the community progress on xbox?
Just wanna know cuz we might likely get a dev blog next week if all tiers are full
If you refuse the Atlas and decide not to start in a new galaxy, can you never find and talk to -null- and the other dude
like they begged me not to destroy them but at the same time why would I choose not to if the result is the same >:)
Is there a way to acquire the flamethrower in vanilla right now?
@harsh pelican yeah they can spawn in trading stations sometimes
@mental socket all tiers completed
@neon lily ||artemis will die no matter what so it be hard to talk to her,|| in regards to null im not too certain but i believe u cant get in touch with him again, it might change or maybe u are able to but i havent found a way
Thank you!
oh yeah in that case rip, thats kinda a shame tbh because it makes it unequal that some manage to get it and some didnt
@wind panther They did. UselessUK tried at three or four places, including the spot I got mine, and the right MTs were there, but no incinerators.
You should be able to add it with the save editor still, but I'm not at home to check
RIP
I saw posts from the coord exchange boasting of the flamethrower as late as three days ago
FeelsBadMan
@wind panther I exported mine in save editor, if you need
I have one, thanks. I just added it manually in the save editor
We're in a vast universe where the rules of biology is far from our Earth point but people still want to assign genders to npc
It's like guessing the gender of a jellyfish
well there's no sexual dimorphism in jellyfish
Nice! I've had just one encounter that just doesn't want to spawn for me since living ship launched. 😁
I hunted all the others down in the first two days.
Found a portal just now too
where is that
if it's a relic gate you're refering to, mind sharing the coords for it? @haughty rover
the system i used for my ls upgrade farming also has a rubble of the first spawn in there
It was the floating in space and had like rock arms
It was in the LS farming system
Yea relic portal
Yea
ok sweet.
Where's it take you?
sweet.
random destinations, fringeward usually
but they can warp you much much more than bh can, for example
Still farming and couldn't be assed going threw lol
Interesting dialogue for the weekend mission
When GekNip hits so hard you start speaking gibberish
😄
seems like they rushed the weekend missions
so their focus must be on something else
update maybe
Yeah there was a lot of writing and stuff in Desolation as well, so that probably got priority
writing is outsourced to Greg
HG just has to copy paste the dialogue in, where they failed for this week 😛
When the gek nip hits so hard you accidentally read your own code
Anybody got Da gek nip ?
What are everyone’s thought on the Atlas Path? It’s a shame it wasn’t updated to change if you competed Artemis before doing it
better than the Artemis Path because it's not a glorified tutorial and encourages exploration to understand wtf it's even saying
the crimson heart stares back
time to make another dragon ball
though it has a decent parallel to a formation of a star
Hadn't ever seen a traveler stranded before. Is that new or just me being unlucky again? 😛
Anonymous Assistance is more interesting than I expected :3
I brainfarted. I had seen other races stranded, just not travelers. Thanks. :#
blep
So like, does the Anomaly station persist through each reality, or no? At first I thought maybe since Atlas could not "see them" but then in the new galaxy, they had no memory of me.
@neon lily im not sure what the question is on that, but yeah u can summon the anomaly in any system
I completed the Atlas Path, created a star, and got the Star Seed technology, but the Atlas Path quest seems to have reappered in my Log. Is this normal?
Yeah it's a recurring bug. Keeps happening to me as well. 😄
So I can just ignore it basically?
Seem so. This time I can't even follow it to make it disappear. 😛
Thanks. My next question is, is it much quicker to get to the galaxy centre using blackholes rather than warp jumping? I've decked out an explorer and it has a a little over 2000 LY jump distance?
I personally got turned around a lot of with black holes I think 😛
I decked it out with 6 S-class drive upgrades (3 in main tab 3 in tech tab) and then read that people have mapped out all the blackholes so you can plot a route to the centre using the map.
Yeah I think I'd only bother with blackholes if I have a reliable BH map (especially as I think it damages my ship each time I use one)
Yeah the BH map sounds like a smart idea
If I can find it.
Yeah I think I'd only bother with blackholes if I have a reliable BH map (especially as I think it damages my ship each time I use one)
@cinder spoke get a trash ship for bh jumps
look up DARC black hole suns
Will it trim a lot of time off getting to the centre using blackholes?
Oh I like this DARC black hole suns website. It even has POIs and Civ/Orgs
@lapis plume It was more of a lore question
@neon lily full lore ||While it unclear who or what created the Space Anomaly, many in No Man’s Sky Community believes that Nada and Polo built the mobile space station to shield themselves and other Travellers from ever watching eyes of the Atlas.
The room to the right of the large teleporter of the nexus houses a Korvax subsimulation of an artificial star system, saved from the destruction of Korvax Prime by Nada. It can be interacted with using the Korvax Simulation Terminal.
In the storyline quest The First Traveller, one can choose to either transfer Artemis' consciousness inside the subsimulation to restore their life or to not transfer it, instead allowing them to die and end their suffering. Nada and Polo support the Player regardless of their choice.||
Hi all... so I just did The Purge and decided not to restart the simulation. Is there any way to change that later if I get bored in Euclid?
get to the center of the galaxy
Sounds fun! Thanks!
making these nanites is ez as hell with this scraping MAN
TIME TO WARP ON OUT OF EUCLID i THINK
caps even
can I still portal back and what not?
repair kits own
Living ships don’t break
if you install upgrade modules on storage sacs, it will break. or are you refering to tech only?
Tech, yeah. I always have them in the organ slots so if it’s a storage only thing I haven’t noticed
any ship that has all of its tech and upgrade modules in the tech inventory, will never be damaged neither by a core warp, or a black hole
Ah. Gotcha. So that’s why my sensors always broke whenever I went through a black hole...
(btw, figurines and starship trails are also considered tech, and so they can break too lol)
I hate these things I think I have a invisible one blocking my way
I can't go through because there's a invisible box like that one I shown above that's blocking me and this is the only way
Supposedly the experimental version fixes it
those boxes have now ruined 2 S-class farms of mine
the first one was literally 2 minutes 30 seconds in and out to get the random s-class upgrade
but now some floating BOX is in the WAY and I'm MAD
well not that mad
Yeah there's like a invisible wall
At least my gun is good for those annoying little horde horrors
@sullen sundial it's basically like the collision doesn't follow the drifting position of the object. Like from far away it's static then shifts to floating but nothing in the game tells it to change the collision to switch off & apply to the floating version
it's not a wall it's one of those shitty floating little machine things
usually they're unmovable but for some reason they made them spawn in doorways
@short parrot have you collected all the glowy balls on the atlas station floors
Those teach you the language of Atlas
also I believe that monoliths on planets have a chance of teaching Atlas words
There are some things you are supposed to understand I believe. But most of it you have to learn
just collect all of these glowy orbs scattered around the station and those flat circles
you'll get plenty of words with each encounter
Hi, can somebody recap me the weekend mission please? couldn't play it 😦
@wanton path u had to collect 16 Crystal Sulphide - some said at saturday and forwardly that they was not able to obtain the mission at all tho.
yeah in regards to that i cannot answer sry, i've just did the mission i didnt really pay attention to the lore even i normally would
👍
just collect all of these glowy orbs scattered around the station and those flat circles
@mental socket I seem to only get like 2-3 words even when I collect all. Is this a known bug? (the 2-3 closest to where I spawn is the only ones that give me words)
@wanton path If you want, I can spam some screenshots at you regarding the last event
Or wait a minute or 10
@stoic trout Not all of them give words. I assume it's intentional since that's how it has been since day one
@wanton path If you want, I can spam some screenshots at you regarding the last event
@uncut harness yes please 🙂
@wanton path Here ya go
Gemini: || Ariadne has returned! Our friend is safe! Ah, rejoice! Would that our brethren shared your spirit! (buggy text here) ||
Disturbance pre-fix: || My sensors detect the remnants of a thousand Korvax souls, spread all across this system. They tried to simulate the Aybss. They succeded only in gaining it's attention. It will take much to heal this void. Without sustenance, it will devour system upon system... ||
Disturbance post-fix: || The rift healed, I discover the origin of the experiment. Hesperus had been working with the Korvax... had been trying to solve our predicament. Their faiulre here has causeed devastation to this species. I do not know if my friend survived... ||
😱
Hesperus is kil
thanks!
rip wise owl man
have you collected all the glowy balls on the atlas station floors
@mental socket do these only teach the Atlas language now, or still a mix of dominant lifeform with a chance for Atlas? 🤔
I'm not quite sure about their current functionality since the last time I've visited atlas was before the bytebeat update I think
Mm, it's been longer still for me, since Atlas Rises basically.
I've had the pleasure to experience that bug where Polo doesn't locate an atlas station for me and they won't even show up on galactic map
Back in Atlas Rises I modded the monoliths & Atlas Interfaces to 100% teach Atlas words via knowledge stones at monoliths & knowledge orbs at Interfaces, lol
That's why I was kinda curious if the Interfaces had adopted that idea or not
@crisp fern Last time I visited Atlas those balls only got me Atlas words
@crisp fern how often does HG implement QoL stuff and fixes straight from mods?
or do they do that
Is there a guide, somewhere, to the Abyss storyline
does it crop up purely in weekend events? I dont recall the abyss being mentioned in the atlas path or Artemis questline.
Some of the Boundary Terminal entries mention a world of glass beneath the reality
Some Travellers say stuff like do not drink the water, which was used in one of the Abyss-related events
glass = sand = silicon. its possibly just a reference to the fact everything is a simulation
oh i like that quote
Hmm. Suspicious if you ask me
😱
are there zombies in the derelict?
lol
would be cool some monstrosity mom lurking around
with more health and damage than ones found on planets
right
Is it?
😦
When im on derelicts, I hear something slowly stomping around above/below me. Wonder if this is a hint at bigger enemies
Hmm
abyss
kzzkt intensifies
Kinda feels like they plan to add things to it
I really hope they do
I feel like they could add some cases where the biological scan returns traces of life and we could find an old crew member on board in various scenarios
Dead or alive
Though it could get real dark real fast,so I don't think HG will take that approach
maybe if they added the ability for NPCs to pull out weapons and shoot when on-foot they could add something like that
When the ship bio scan showed the last known positions I thought we might actually find a few members
Especially since the person had logged in a day ago
Woulda been a nice surprise
yeah i think all of the logs are designed intentionally so they mesh with basically any scenario or other type of log that could appear
which is cool, but having more than a couple different encounters would be fun as well. Not that I don't enjoy them now, it's one of my favorite things that has been added
Looking at how we just recently got more NPC interactions on planets, I don't doubt it'll happen
Plus I feel allowing NPCs to walk/run around on derelicts would be a little easier to do than on planets
yeah, even if they don't end up being on planets for whatever reason in the near future having them on derelicts would be neat
but i do dream of a day I can find a lone korvax surveying a planet on its own, or an angry vy'keen chasing me across the surface
I'd love that.
Walking and running NPCs would add a whole new range of possibilities for missions and interactions. I think it's a cool start, seeing a vykeen walk around their crashed ship though
Or a gek standing and sitting next to a damaged container
(I came across both of these)
So, uh, are there any lore differences between the Anomaly and Traveller races?
@rocky pelican
Yep. Anomalies are the corrupted version if the creator of the Atlas that was created by the Atlas when it realized that it was dying, and wanted to be with its owner
Whereas travellers are a race made by the Atlas to explore the universe
Let's say I pick a new galaxy and decide I dont like it. Can I change it or am I stuck?
hmm, how do you change it after the fact?
You go to center of the galaxy
doesnt that just take you to somewhere random?
No. There are galaxy chains as I understand it depending on your selected. But I'm just going from what I read as I'm still in Euclid.
there's uhh
i believe there's around 250 galaxy's, and once you go through all of em you loop back to euclid
so if you decide you don't like a galaxy, you can always go back
but
you'd have to loop all the way around
or already have a base in euclid
256
256 is not accessible unless you join a player who happens to be there or you got a pre-next base there
Oh man I still don’t know if I want to do the green or red galaxy
Red sounds exciting but green seems so peaceful
It's just storms
I'm in Calypso, all that changes is that yellow stars have a ton of extreme planets.
so there's a difference between the galaxies? Never knew. Gives going to a different galaxy a reason 😄
been playing for 60 hours, hadn't come across an abandoned space station yet, now have gotten 2 in the last 3 jumps
which is annoying because i still need 6 glyphs for portal activations
Oh I thought one jump per cell was just how it was lol
Well I made them already so rip
I’m probably gonna replace those crappy ship entirely so I’ll just keep my nanites for now but thank you for reminding me
If the upgrade system I mean
*of
@rocky pelican grab either an exotic or explorer you like and upgrade drives. I can make up to 20 jumps with 1 or 2 cells. Trust me it’s worth it
Also, you can go to green system with emeril drive, red with cadmium drive, and blue with indium drive.
not pictured is the immense dread caused by still not being sure which to pick
Green is best one @rocky pelican
Well here's my dilemma. I know green produces more pretty worlds, but red makes the arguably more exciting extreme ones show up more. And then you got the default galaxy followed by one with what I assume are more dead/weird planets
I guess my choice is between heaven and hell, haha
Hmmmmm.... I mean I went green lol
I checked. Yep, the ancestral galaxy is a bunch more dead planets. Weird planets are generated from originally dead ones, so there's more of them as well
So here's my options:
- Keep it all the same
- Greatly increase hazardous(yet lucrative) planets
- Greatly increase paradise planets
- Greatly increase dead and weird planets
Well that’s really preference haha
I dunno, paradise planets look fancy and all but there's nothing EXCITING.
You know what, my choice is made.
Let's go to hell 😎
are we expecting another update in August?
if anything i'm guessing something smaller
crap crap all my stuff is broken
and it's extreme heat planet
I asked for this and it's awesome but still oof ow
Summon your freighter
Or another ship
Summoning trivializes pretty much everything
Nah don't do it, better to enjoy the game that way imho
since when were logs past 20 added?
There should only be 20 but now there is 30 and they seem really disturbing
They were possibly added recently
Dunno, I tried to figure it out a few months ago, but failed
Because some of them seem to fit in with the current lore that's going on
Seems like nobody saves atlast on the last moment after all
Check log 25 for example
and log 28
so sad
seems like the creator of the atlas returned
or someone did
but what terminal, where? Do they go inside atlas or upload themselves to a higher simulation, past the glass?
So confusing
Like, there are simulations above atlas. Atlas itself may be a part of higher simulation
@uncut harness @mental socket Thanks, and not super often. Usually not in the same manner as the mod for obvious reasons (they have better methods available, sometimes).
wut
so the atlas is just a machine that simulates a universe like that machine in the anomaly is?
and it broke?
my life is a lie
turtles all the way down
Not a universe, @vapid moon... many universes
ye 255
that was one of the major narrative thrusts of the ARG that Elizabeth wanted to find and the reason Atlas was created, to prove whether we were in a simulation


WT was awesome
Do I put Artemis in the simulation or do I just end her suffering?
There are no long term consequences, just choose what feels right to you
Can someone explain to me what is going on with Iteration Hesperus right now?
He has disappeared from the anomaly and the weekend mission mentioned he was helping the Korvax do something
nah
the putting artemis into simulation sucks more because he still calls a few times and you can lie even more
Hesperus did nothi g wrong
Just got my new ship, I’m happy with her
At the end of the Atlas Path quest you must go thru a Black Hole to see all black holes on the map, if you didnt what could you do to complete it properly?
whats with atlas and 16?
Far as I recall, It refers to 16 minutes tell its death.
there are also 16 glyphs
@rose finch make another heart of the sun and go back and talk to the final atlas again.,
There are also 16 stars in orbit around the core. or something. One of the atlas rants references a stellar location at the center of 16 suns.
best discussed in #nms-spoilers
um, this is nms-spoilers
this guy gets it
my point was people end up asking all these in nms-help a lot so actually seeing it in the right channel is nice for a change
I have no idea where the final atlas is tho
hmm
I'm starting to have second thoughts about sending artemis into the simulation
was it a bad idea?
I told them it was a simulation ☹️
I’m sad nada and polo lost memory of me 😦
artemis doesnt have a gender
not once is there a male or female pronoun attached to them
None od the characters in the game are referred to with gendered pronouns
It's always they/them
The lore includes that the Korvax basically have nanites as their blood. Using nanites as currency for stuff is what he meant by melting them down into gear
@brisk crane
Woah
Plaques
The Gek plaques provide an understanding that the Gek were once an arrogant and blood-thirsty primal master race known as the Gek the First Spawns. They had many rituals designed to conquer the universe and harness its resources for themselves. The Gek Dominion swooped through the universe with blitzkrieg tactics and invaded everywhere at ease and nearly eliminated the entire population of Korvax Prime, causing the The Great Disconnection.
Ruins
From ruins constructed by the Gek, it was learned that they were biding their time to defeat the Vy'keen Alliance quickly, as the Vy'keen and the Sentinels clashed against one another in The Aerons War. During this time, the First Spawns of the Gek were enslaving a majority of the young Korvax in an act of "Mercy". Fresh Korvax were put into horrific conditions of slavery, abused and neglected. When more of the Korvax died, bodies were refused a return to the remaining Korvax colony planets; instead Gek the First Spawns stripped their bodies down and melted them into more equipment for their war efforts.
@tulip tangle no they literally used the melted metal to make guns, they didnt buy anything
After the korvax died, instead of a proper burial, they would strip the bodies of their plating, melt it down, and smelt new tech
Well I mean we the players literally exchange their blood for goods lol
The Gek, they reused the skin n stuff too apparently 😄
I havent read the lore since 2016 lol
news?
What do I do now I'm at the core do I fly into it or something?
Basically pointless lmao
I did it last night
