quality wise, I felt NEXT was more like "2.0" and BEYOND felt like an Early Preview beta build
so many QoL changes and bugfixes were already present
Is this picture on Twitter real?
Someone posted a picture that looks like the pictures on the patch page
describing the new features
Real or fake?
What
More than likely fake. What post was this?
Where dawg
Fan patch notes
These were the patch notes to a fan update yeah
Fake
Sean is blueballing us
Did he tweet something when the last one ended
Yep
I think Mac foraday is right
But not about the volcanoes
Origins has to be variety
around NEXT we speculated about how cool it would be if they added volcanoes
and some guy said that volcanoes cant exist with the lore
coz apparantly in lore the planets are hollow
I can't remember who, sorry if you're reading this and that was you
Where did it ever say that
Its gonna have volcanoes, the baking soda ones, it's gonna be a base part worth 3400 quicksilver.
the same guy also pointed out fire doesn't exist in the NMS universe
I doubt, we legit had flamethrowers for a month
I wonder if those will ever come back
i think im far from finishing the story but my theory is that artemis ||is just a bait from something that wants to kill me
||
Artemis is a bitch
||*was||
*true
Hey everyone I have a question about the Atlas Path. At first I thought I wasn't going to be able to finish it because I thought I finished the quest line without having made the heart of the sun. It vanished from my quest log and everything, and my last atlas station seemed to have glitched. I found another system with an atlas station where I was able to use the heart of the sun, view the star being born, and I received the star seed for my inventory. The quest then appeared on time line again, going to a new atlas station in a new system, and this station again wants a heart of the sun. Is this part of the quest? I thought the end of the quest was receiving the star seed. thanks
The quest restarted for me as well, it doesnβt give anything extra second time around
Thanks. So the star seed is all you get? Doesn't seem like much of a bonus
Someone suggested I finish the atlas path quest to make getting to the center of the galaxy easier but I'm not seeing the connection
Thanks. Dont' have rememberence yet
You get that from the main story end
Ah I see. I'm at the end I think, it gave me the choice to reset for a new galaxy. I heard that will delete your progress in the current galaxy though so I reloaded my prior save. Not sure if I want to go to a new galaxy or get the the center of Euclid
It wonβt
It just damages tech and gives you access to a new galaxy when you reset
You can always portal to and from galaxies as long as you have been to at least a space station in each one
Oh awesome thanks. I need to make friends with more people to get to more galaxies. Of the four choices of a new galaxy you get is any better than the others?
@rich jasper if you want I can invite you to my NMs group. We can help you out and if you want some people to play with we can join your game when we can
That'd be great. Are you guys on xbox? I have one friend on PC but it gets glitchy sometimes. The game is fun but gets a little boring alone
I forget which color galaxy is the lush one but that one is the best to choose
We are on all platforms really
Green.
The majority of us are on PS4
@wide storm thanks that's the one I'll do then
Is dragging my ass all the way to the galaxy center of euclid worth it?
Now thatβs toxic!
That'll get you to Hilbert, another 'normal' galaxy that was also the Cyan choice.
Does everyone get sent to the same set of galaxies?
After that is the Red choice, Calypso. Higher chances for extreme weather.
oops
Ah, the original Glactic Hub easter egg.
i mean...if you give me the option to poke, im gonna poke
and im not gonna reload either.. thats my final answer
They'll just give you a small amount of units and sometimes a warp core if you ask for the incentive.
okay...part of me was curious if i missed out on discovering some amazing Korvax homesystem trigger quest
or wait
hes a Traveler not Korvax
or an Anomaly? i get them mixed up
Traveler. Anomaly is the human-style spacesuits.
yeah that sounds right now that i hear someone else say it haha
Travllerers are the.... travellers?
the anomaly is essentially the player, right?
Yep. One in each iteration, but the boundaries are failing.
whereas a traveler can be anyone in our chosen role
well actually im not sure yet
im still doing the main quest lol
i have a vague idea of what they are but the picture isnt complete yet
i guessed right about the Sentinels, but i knew there was a disconnect between them and Atlas, too...you can tell without even knowing the full story yet
We dont actually become a traveler or another race or even chnage our exo system the appearance modifier "chnages the reflecting light of the player" in order to chnage the appearance. We are all still the same orange suit
what im unsure of now is Atlas and Apollo
the game make it seem like Apollo is my friend, but i dont really trust him haha
Apollo's friend is money. "What good are units if not to exert your influence over others?"
im delving into spoiler territory for myself now so i'll stop prying haha
dont wanna ruin the ending for myself on accident\
so far i've been following the policy of truth with artemis.. seems shady to lie about that, even if ignorance could be bliss
(excuse my latecomer newbness/ignorance) π
just trying to wrap my brain around this enigma of a "game" ... starting to feel more like a playable artwork lol
not a bad thing
Sean should have not teased the title to up the suspense
The second poll ended and no new tweets

SEAN YOU MADMAN YOU'RE KILLING US
Wrong chat lol
i get that everyones excited about the update but let's try and still keep channels on topic
but we're losing grasp of reality
The new art that Sean posted seems (at least imo) to really focus on planets
what's on the surface of the planets*
I'm probably looking too far into it, and that flying whale thing looks interesting for sure, but with the picture "zooming out" it really emphasizes the planet they are on
also why is the sky on the left different than the right?
one has like stars or something, the other is clear
could that be hinting at rotation?
Could be a new particle effect
With the weather
Imo looks like a new biome
Not really seen any of the flora or fauna before
Same could be said for the left, outside of e3
also why is the sky on the left different than the right?
@tall carbon two separate biomes/places
And excluding the steuders
nice
also, that's either a space worm, a sky whale, or a sandworm jumping out of the ground
imagine it flying through the clouds
Crazy
the noise would be so nice
Do you think that's a new biome on the right?
for sure
Doesn't quite look toxic or poisonous
Hopefully it's not an exotic biome
hopefully
need a revamp of current biomes
instead of just an addition of new ones
Yeah
That being said the desert on the left is straight out of an e3 demo
We have nothing like that ingame either
could be hinting at more alien deserts
cause what we have now...they aren't really alien
Yeah for sure
Different clouds on each planet too, but that's probably just artistic lisence
it might all be. ugh i hope not
Whatever it is, the focus of the art is definitely planet surfaces
Which means that's the likely focus of the update
And they said they were listening too
there's no doubt they've heard our plea
pls not just static assets
Wonder if there will be more glitch planets?
If they don't want to do a universe reset that we'll get more exotic planets or something
maybe a wider color pallete
Yeah the cover art is extremely vague
Anything but terrain you can change without a reset
Abyss and visions did assets, biomes and colours
No reset
the stuff on the ground on right looks like underwater stuff - the clam, the spiky boi, some glowy seaweed
I still think that whatever is eclipsing the atlas is probably very important
Exactly. Beyond showed vr and expanded multiplayer. Next showed multiplayer and the exotic megaliths
So it makes sense that this art would go with variety
Is there any way to see what changed in the steam internal branches or will we have to wait for the actual update?
Yes
They already exist?
I don't think they bend, they are more like flying logs if i remember correctly
Those are what became of sand worms
Ooch
He's probably getting a lot of hate
From angery people
Wednesday is a good bet
With or without evidence
And a sparse Arctic landscape
sparse anything that's not a dead planet would be welcome
h o m e
It would be really cool to find the occasional intermixed biome
Arctic toxic world
That'd be pretty
Cacti covered in snow
I want a biome with only Orange trees
Vitamin c for miles
But I want the oranges to be purples
I think swamps could be pretty diverse tbh
So only aubergines
imagine landing on a dense swampy biome with directions you got from a sketchy Gek, pointing you to a valuable artifact hidden there. the lore for this artifact, the tribe that revered it, and the temple that contains it were all procedurally generated
i always felt like the perfect NMS experience was part sci-fi, part Indiana Jones
Maybe this is more of the direction HG plan to go with Origins and what follows
Well I guess there's no "perfect" experience because everyone wants something different, but perhaps perfect in terms of utilizing its strengths
your description and mention of degoblah earlier definitely has me imagining a gek cosplaying yoda
"Mmm yes, trade you must!"
hmmmm, just noticed something
these characters dont seem like they were drawn, they look like actual 3d models
the shadows and textures, and the way they are potoshopped into the image makes me think they did another style rework.
Noticed that yeah. Whether it's an artistic choice or hinting towards a minor art style change is up to whenever we see a trailer/patch notes
Some elements look painted
like the one guy's bags
could just be a render of some models that were then painted over
Hmm, could be just a talented artist
But the models do look kinda slightly out of place. Maybe they were drawn separately or they actually did use the models
notice fellow on right doesn't have exosuit orb pal
Perhaps they'll give you the option to take it off in character customization
I was considering that as a possibility too, that same character is missing the right shoulderpad as well
would be nice to let us toggle certain bits on and off
hmm you know what, i don't even think that's the Atlas behind them, it looks like a starfield
which almost makes it look like some kind of portal to other place
tfw we go to base sim homeworld
Wonder if the center guy is from one of the fan screenshots, it's the one that is pretty much identical to in-game customization options. The other two look more stylized and are in stances that don't exist in game rn
What is your reaction if this turns out not to be variation
Kinda surprised but also if it's not variation I wonder what else it could possibly be given the lead up
petting aminals
What is your reaction if this turns out not to be variation
@mental socket oh, okay. well this is nice, not sure about this, and uhh hrm not a fan of this but will have to see how it pans out.
don't make me cry, zoid
also, i wouldn't be surprised if 'Origins' focused more on the sandbox experience and less on planetary variation
I'd be surprised if it didn't have at least something to do with planets especially conspidering how their is such a big focus on them in the art
i think it definitely will have something to do with planets
playing devil's advocate
well technically there's a big focus on one planet. maybe that's all we get
installs update -> wakes up on a farm in Oklahoma -> Aunt Bee tells us we had a bad dream
Then we have breakfast and go help uncle Fluffy with feeding the animals
We're just jumping to conclusions here
I get that but it's weird when people say things like "Sean doesn't care anymore" or "They'll never go back to it" when we don't even know what's in the update yet. It's just jumping the gun
it's a bit more complicated than that. I think Sean is interested in what will sell to new people. making us happy with more variation won't get him any money because HG already got our money. so he looks for features that will sell a bunch of units to people that weren't interested before. maybe that's a cynical perspective but Sean has to keep the lights on, especially with a new game costing a bunch of money to develop
Freighter combat pllllllls
Although on one hand, HG does have another game out now to help draw in different folks
true, though i don't know how well Campfire is selling
they also have a merch store now
no idea why it took them so long. should've been selling 3D printed versions of your ships too, i know I would have bought some
Yeah.
i don't have hope that we will get a huge variation update because i've had my hopes dashed too many times. but i hope at least it'll have some cool stuff
Chances are the guy on the right still has the exosuit buddy, probably behind his head, btw.

@glass flare There has been a mix of both player-requested features and the sell-well features in every update so far. Desolation and Living Ship being the two most recent ones probably.
I think there is a good reason to why they haven't done a variety update still, and I hope that we will get to find out what that reason was very soon
sure, but spending a ton of dev time revamping the biomes is a different scale of work than the stuff in those smaller updates
me too, but they don't seem to like that DLC model
I'd gladly give them more money if it meant better updates
I'd give Sean money to show me his oranges
Of course the 4chan leaks are going to be true, it's the top 5 biggest requests for NMS
doesn't make it a leak though
HG is a small team
The odds of someone being able to leak something and not get caught is miniscule
It likely is
Or, someone just picked the 5 things a major update is likely to contain, and wrote some LARP around it
Still going to hope those things are true though
Same as the guy with the youtube video and their 'source'
It's the sort of thing you hear around iphone launch time too, people with "sources" that claim the next phone will be thinner/lighter/faster
Yeah it's because people were getting real pissed with them
Apple's never released a slower phone
I don't think people are pissed at the volcano's, I think people are pissed that he's clearly making things up
Or is being duped
always a possibility
Again, it's something that would plausibly put into the game - simulated geology
I think it was even mentioned pre-launch in 2015 as a throwaway comment in one of sean's interviews
Well if it is wednesday I get to be right too π
Difference is I don't claim to have a source
I just pulled it out of the air based on feels
And then if it doesn't come out tomorrow.
tweaks statement
Guys it's coming out thursday. I have a strong feeling about it
^ this guy rumours ^
Half the update will be audio files of sean reading off our ideas and laughing at us
my favorite lore piece is still the marble
I just liked the way it was written
I like it all but especially that damn marble
@uncut harness 
it basically confirms what the abyss is to me
the abyss' own name basically confirms what it is to me: a black void swallowing the atlas. I don't think it's an antagonistic force or warring AI, just rampancy in itself while it decays into madness and its systems are destroyed. this affects all beings, including NPCs (see community missions), as well as creating new enemies in the sea and land. it's similar yet distinct: similar in that it's the atlas, and distinct in that it's not the same "creating" and "quiet" energy. almost like an anomalous force pushing through the simulations
is it really a coincidence the abyss update used the sunken ruins to introduce lore based on the decay of a reflective marble when the reality the game is set in is also reflective?
I think abyss is just a computer virus affecting the Atlas
this theory is prevalent but I still think it's the atlas itself
it just makes the most story sense
we are nearing the final completion of 16, which is when the atlas dies. the atlas is going rampant in other parts of the story. an abyss is a void
imagine the atlas finally shutting down and we get the "thank you for playing!" message
I wouldn't even be mad
And then it plays a clip of the entire team waving at us
And then all taking a sip of orange juice
But they would be sharing the same glass of oj of course
no it just announces their new game which is a sequel to No Man's Sky's story
action horror RPG
Atlas finally blue screens on us and the game resets back to launch day.
Its memory became corrupted and had to reboot back to a stable version of itself
I just read it from the game files, I'm not sure where it is except with the ruins
it might be locked to the quest line but I'm not sure
Much disappointing that nothing is shown so far
I like it, hyping us for something big
"Origins" 
Are there any places where abandoned ships are more common?
What happens if I have a base in Euclid but reset the galaxy for the Atlas quest?
Pls dm me the answer so Iβll see it tomorrow, Iβm about to go to bed
π€
Me thinks someone is not enthused with gek milk

But but...but what about the orange juice? π₯Ί
Does that mean gek milk IS orange juice?
@serene ether stop, you have violated the law
π’
How many oranges is the fine? 6 enough? πππο»Ώπο»Ώπο»Ώπ
Yep, 6 is a great number.
Awesome. π
Can you link it @earnest wharf
yes combat plsssss
THR VIDEO WONT LOAD WTF
yeah we have to go on pc
You have to confirm your age in the "screenshoots" section
It says "planets orbit stars" in the info

WHAT
Dude that's too much
If I can yeet myself in to a star for no reason what so fucking ever.
@toxic fjord where does it say that
Just wanted to say that I came.
BIG BUGS
"
In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose."
OKDFHDHCH F
WHATEVER THESE LITTLE SHIPS ARE
Someone screen record it for the less fortunate please
hold on
"
In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose."
@toxic fjord does this mean what I think it means
those ships are already in game no?
ORBITED
goddamn if there's actual orbital mechanics
SPACE WOOORM
Origins trailer
Can we feed food to the space worm
@lavish blade I hope it does otherwise I'll be pissed
oh, it saved as an flv
I mean, it quite literally says planets orbit stars
100% - binary stars, more extreme terrains, volcanos, enriched colour pallets, every planet unique. maybe - planets orbiting
100% - universe reset
Can we harvest the space jellies
@uncut harness @twin plinth just did!
WORM
Oooh this is killing me, why wonβt the video play on the Microsoft store on cellphones damn!
GIVE WORM SCREENSHOT
MICROSOFT WONT WORK ON PGONE
it flew out from the ground then went inside another part of the ground
OH. That's why Sean was excited about the DUNE trailer
scroll down
This is probably gonna be removed soon but anyway, this is your early look at NMS Origin! Grabbed from the Microsoft Store.
"Every planet unique, Every planet unexplored" <---this is where I came
HEJROPP WORM
OMFNBG
give up.. i forgot to record sound on it
weird spur plant
wow the worm looks small
small lol
oh i'm glad someone is grabbing the flash shots
Space jelly
i recorded it again in mp4 and 1080p but forgot to record sound LOL
Update 3.0, Origins, dramatically expands the universe of No Manβs Sky. Explore a stranger, richer and more varied universe, with deeper planetary diversity, dramatic new terrain, a host of new creatures, new weather conditions, colossal buildings, and much more.
this to me is the most important update since Foundation. Going back to 1.0. It may not be perfect but they L I S T E N E D
i wonder if multiple suns will have any bearing on gameplay and/or lighting?
EVERY FAUNA AGGRESSIVE lol
I hope the worms insta-kill you. You should be able to avoid them, but they should insta-kill you if you make a mistake
being that big, I would hope so.
Tanking a hit from one of those would be ridiculous.
a group of trees are forests
@uncut harness you mean the assets or the planets "blueprints"?

I have seen a bunch of them during my play time
also dude why are you worried
they havent released patch notes yet
just a trailer
I you want procedural (almost) everything check out Ray rod's Multiverse
that shows a lot but also doesnt
lmao
lmao
lol rayrod
ahh
i hope hes good
but i think he abandoned his project
he works on dreams now apparently
could the cranes be for ship costumization?
man rayrod is a whack topic, i hope he does release his nasa like prerelease type mod
with the orbit files he found in the games files
which he spent 18k hours on
too bad for him that the game updated massively again
ya
SAND WORMS
"orbit file sin the games file"? π€
this is all
monkeyman he made a post on reddit once
yes, I remember haha
where he said he found code relating to orbits
I also, know the game files very well
5(?) years later we finally got the sandworms
was it in there?
not in the way you think it is I think
So just references and not actual code?
because if it is that then I guess I should apologize to ray
THIS UPDATE WILL BE INSANE!
we do not have the game RE-ed anywhere near well enough to know what un-used code there is
i think i wil finally play the game after like 1 year
the best we can do is see what the names of stuff is in the files
I see
so there are mentions to 'orbits', but they are not like, the actual orbits of a planet
Ahhh
eg, around solar systems they use the word orbit to describe how the little planets move in the map
stuff like that
I understand now
I know for a fact the game cannot handle landing on a moving object
But it wasn't as if you could get the orbits to work like how ray claimed he would
I modded it in, the game just cannot handle it haha
OH
it's pretty funny, you just get stuck in space kind of
oh, i hope they get it to work!
I'd love proper planetary dynamics and such!
Damn I should apologize to ray for getting a hate crowd going against him
@brazen igloo trailer doesn't reveal everything
True true
@uncut harness that looks like a universe reset if i've ever seen one
anyway, since this is spoilers, I'll give some "spoilers" of what we may see in this update....
so in the last update they added stuff for pets...
so maybe that
flying creatures landing, this was hinted at in the last update in the game and we see it in the trailers
@uncut harness no mention of anything yet by Sean
'every planet unexplored' in the trailer tho?
so that's in it looks like...
could be marketing fluff tho
You know what sucks
@wooden umbra exactly.
not sure what else there was haha
flying creatures landing, this was hinted at in the last update in the game and we see it in the trailers
wait when?
I think we get the update 2-3 hours after consoles
Yea
near the start...
of desolation trailer?
yeah insectoids
can you pin the youtube link for new people? @astral karma
@wispy helm thank you β€οΈ
they are flying and then they land
oh I thought you mean "last update" as in desolation
the landing thing I only know because it was in the games files from the last update
ah ok
so they were working on it, but it wasn't implemented
SCREEN SHOTS FROM TRAILER
This is probably gonna be removed soon but anyway, this is your early look at NMS Origin! Grabbed from the Microsoft Store.
^ PIN THIS
i wonder if that volcanoes are gonna do anything?
@fast terrace I canβt
shoot fireballs etc etc
pew pew
i imagine flowing lava would be too much of a pain
I am but a simple no role
I'm saying pin it because it's gonna get spammed here =))
huh
Pin*
This is probably gonna be removed soon but anyway, this is your early look at NMS Origin! Grabbed from the Microsoft Store.
pin the youtube link
Theyβre asking me to pin it but i canβt
redirect users that want to see it here
Two stars? holy shiet holy shiet!
I name the blue one bruh and the yellow one boruh
Yea
tell me more
binary systems confirmed:
what's the purpose of that building?
the building looks like it has the entering beam thingy for ships
stop naming it after yourself
LMAO
Cuck sphere
oh my
look at these colours!!
@pseudo frost mod it to be named cuck purΓ©e please
Omg
Cuck sphere*
The vibrancy
FU @brazen igloo
MS store
couple of screenshots are there
You should post em all here
Yo this may be the best update to date
Sand worπ ±οΈ
What in the world could that building be?
My dad
Youβre my dad
hello son
you are my dad
i came here to hype with you
how amny sons you have
there seems to be new terrain textures too
Do you guys think that huge structure could be some sort of new planetary station or something?
I'd still like it if its just an abandoned building to muck around in
At 0:51, during the enter-ship transition, was that a new player helmet or existing one?
Looks like the crane area at the bottom was played made ngl
I'm interested to see how they implemented the volcanos...
Player made*
it kinda seems new
crazy completely volcanic planet mod anyone?
cant say
Keyboard is not keeping up with my monkey brain
@brazen igloo no way the things a base part though lol
Just big, unexplained ancient structures are cool
Also, floor pads connecting to round prefabs by default?
No need to use construction struts in the middle?
oh no wait that helmet isnt new
I like how none of the new environments in the trailer seem to be actual fixed biomes
2 more tweets, one for community mission at 50, Desolation at 55 then ORIGINS
quite a few of the landmasses seem new, which i'm super jazzed about. as much as i love that one super thin tall mountain that always appears i'm glad there will be others now. :P
So maybe same planet
oh! I remember the last thing that they added in the last update that doesn't look like it was utilised... They added the 'reality index' (ie. the index of the galaxy you are in) as a parameter in the planet generation. Since I don't think any planets were changed in any galaxies, this doesn't look like it was used, but maybe they use it in this update to make planets change/get more crazy as you go from the 1st galaxy onwards up to 256? (Pure speculation)
Everything we've seen looks like modifiers on top of existing biomes
So was Mac Foraday's source right?
Maybe itβs new galaxies in general
For EVERYONE! HERE'S THE TRAILER!!!!!π±π±π±π±π±π± https://t.co/ouPxe4JGJG
135
Which means hopefully we can see a lot of "in-between" planets and unique stuff
Itβs pinged @fierce sonnet
Iβm hyped as fuck knowing that thereβs defidently more to come
Also what happens when the worm lands on player bases?
At 1:25, biome-related storm crystals? I thought the cracks were always blue
@brazen igloo ever seen Spongebob? Lol
We need worm repellent
@brazen igloo we'll push our bases to a new location
Big ol industrial grade spray can
Don't forget we didn't even see the new weather types yet
Bro you right
@rotund perch tornadoes!?
There's gonna be so many new variables in planets now
At 1:25, biome-related storm crystals? I thought the cracks were always blue
could have just been some form of atmospheric filter
so everyone ready for the reset?
It says something about seeing discoveries on the galactic map
Update 3.0, Origins, dramatically expands the universe of No Manβs Sky. Explore a stranger, richer and more varied universe, with deeper planetary diversity, dramatic new terrain, a host of new creatures, new weather conditions, colossal buildings, and much more.
that bit?
oh no not that bit
Share your journey
The galaxy is a living, breathing place. Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own...
Maybe that's just the description for uploading stuff to Discovery servers?
sounds cool, could be fluff though
Yeah probably fluff
yeah that sounds like fluff
but given the content of the leaked trailer I honestly have no idea
@uncut harness sounds like they're getting rid of all the other galaxies and bringing it down to just one
Guess every channel's total anarchy?
so happy i got proven wrong assuming just a few new base parts LOL
I have a feeling the galactic map has been pretty updated too
This one's not total anarchy
anyone broke down the trailer yet?
There are some breakdowns
At least changed enough to account for binary systems
Yeah
well then. funky
I'm interested to see if the binary stars orbit each other...
I got a sandworm, planet on fire, and some weird anomaly-esque structure on a planet.
hope they do
yep, theres a shot in the trailer of a blue and yellow star
And someone said they saw orbital mechanics but idk
is 'factions vie for territory' something they've said before? maybe it just refers to plot stuff?
otherwise HG are still like, 2 years behind a mod me and another made haha
im excited by merely the bug that was flying, landed, and then walked
whoa, didn't notice the bug. radical. i hope bugs are a new creature type in general. and i hope there are lots of super tiny ones :3
I wonder if the sandworm is in some new class of mefafauna or if it's just a prefab thing that can spawn
And the trailers on youtube bruhs let's go
I guess there were aliens moving in player made structure as well, but dunno if those were players or npc's
probably just a prefab... but we can hope
the official trailer is on youtube?
not just someones unnoficial post?
Introducing...No Man's Sky Origins
Update 3.0, "Origins", dramatically expands the universe of No Manβs Sky. Explore a stranger, richer and more varied universe, with deeper planetary diversity, dramatic new terrain, a host of new creatures, new weather conditions, colossal b...
dunno, it got sound compared to the microsoft one
It's up!.. Officially...oh
yeah that fkn thing got a backpack so a player.
well shit, i was hoping for npc's in your bases
need to put that fkn speed to 0.25
not much I got from those flashes.
There already are NPCs in your bases though
employees I guess.
and I got em on my frigate. π
At 1:03, monitors show Living Ship weapons but mechanical ship name and model?
so just rewatched the trailer
and the part with the fire and red storm crystals is actually the foot of a volcano
better pic of the "garage"
apparently
ehh checks out
kinda says how trailer doesn't show us jack shit and everyone just wants to READ. π
yep
TORNADOES! ππππ
what torna-don't.
ehp wait just go in
Existing solar systems have birthed new planets, creating millions of untouched new worlds to explore
π€
they work now
NEW UI SLEEK AF
Whilst flora, fauna and atmospheric conditions have changed throughout the universe, existing worlds will retain their old character, allowing player bases to remain undisturbed.
NEW UI IS AWESOME! HOLY SHIET!
Interface and menus have been totally overhauled with new colours and styles, for a fresh new aesthetic.
SWAMPS
that's cool i guess...
Any piece of variety added is welcome
Photo mode improvements
Please let us toggle off rain in photo mode
Please please please
portal interference fucked off
Now that's a biggun.
The range of atmospheric illumination has been broadened, generating more unique combinations of lighting conditions on planets
Those new buildings look great
portal interference lifted
YOOOOOOO
Storms on extreme temperature worlds now sometimes ignite fire on the planetβs surface.
yeah portal interference being lifted is... insane
that totally changes multiplayer hubs
That changes Lore
So it's all visuals.
Storm Gameplay Effects
Where's that guy from reddit who proposed this idea
well basically all visuals.
Interested in this crafting simplified.
Cause I spent fucking HOURS farming all tech blueprints.
is the update out on steam?
TORNADO CONFIRMED
Portal interference lifted
Holy smokes
Meteors confirmed
Streamlined capital ship hunting
Anomalous planets can exhibit sudden gravitational shifts, allowing dramatic flights through a low-gravity environment.
this is so amazing
hot potato!
Black market stuff?
PLANETARY NPC ENCOUNTERS
Black market traders, piloting their ships across planets, will now sometimes land on the planetary surface.
Explorers can approach these dealers to browse their selection of contraband technology upgrades.
POGGGG
i think saying it's 'all visuals' is a bit reductive. one of the exciting things about this update is that many of these changes, while cool to see, also touch other gameplay systems. storms now charge certain technologies. tornadoes, lightning, and fire can spawn during them. etc etc
looks like creatures have been reset...
The space station scrap dealer will now exchange pugneum for their own selection of black market goods.
lets hope those goods are actually good
MT CLASS UPGRADES
^^yep
I am BLOWN AWAY
MECHANICAL DOGGO CREATURES
yeah no orbital mechanics
We Horizon now XD
@toxic fjord orbits around planet was reported as a bug by beta tester before nms even came out so that wont happen, sorry
so the marshes are a sub biome on planets?
Steam depo updated?
still internal only
sorry, didnt use portals much. what does it mean interface lifted?
sizzle!
I hope the new colours are also on existing planets
sorry, didnt use portals much. what does it mean interface lifted?
when you went through a portal, you couldnt build a base or summon your freighter
or use teleportals
The palette of colours for planetary generation has been increased, creating more possible variations than ever before.
PRAISE BE COLOURS
@copper spear not as a bug, but disorienting
so sean said the update is out now but.... is it?
TERNARY STARS POSSIBLE
when you went through a portal, you couldnt build a base or summon your freighter
@sinful saddle doesnt that make portals the cheapest way to travel now?
whaaaat
cant tell if this is a new planet or an updated old
yes, portals are by far now the cheapest way to travel
you just need the glyphs to your destination
mechanical lifeforms?? woah
Creature generation has been reset. However, previous creature discoveries are now noted in the βExtinctβ section of the Discoveries page.
no more black hole DARC to get to the galactic hub...
whaaaat
@earnest wharf this is a no man sky discord. no horizon allowed
I dont like the change to teleporters
π
I wish it was more condensed because we visit a lot of space stations
terrifying
oh I wonder they fixed the clouds option in photo mode finally
ice planets with crystals!
Trade economies have been rebalanced, so that the economy will be less affected by the mass selling of non-specialist items.
also its not a totally blue sky in this one
Rip cobalt exploit
Abandoned and ancient settlements can be discovered on dead or anomalous planets, increasing the range of planets available for missions and exploration.
haha they fixed this, thank god
@mighty rampart oooo I'm not seeing any trees.. Barren ice planets?
possible
but its interesting they didnt alter terrain of existing biomes to protect bases but then how many new planets are we getting?
"The archives are also home to a large number of NPCs and shops." so cool!!!!
per system on average
@mighty rampart they said billions of new planets
yeah it sounds like a nice way to add "cities" without actual cities to break the game lore
@uncut harness I mean number of planets per system
its a lot of variety
way more than expected
marshes
Should be
@toxic fjord
Its not a bug but it was reported as a bug by beta testers, thats why its not ingame
why do you want jungles are you a monkey or smth
@cloud nacelle I want jungles too
ooo ooo aaa
i'm pretty happy about their solution re: the proc gen reset problem. it's elegant, and having more planets per system is always nice.
there's extra weather effects!!!
Blizzards allow you to mine for longer with a cooled Mining Beam; sprint further in toxic storms with assistance from Exosuit gas processing technology; benefit from increased jetpack efficiency in superheated atmospheres; and mine additional substances during times of high radioactivity.
no i want jungles too
V O L C A N O Z
Meteors crahsing, I literally thought about that like 5 mins before we got the patchnotes
Hell yea.. I'm sure we got jungles now
I can't believe this is the same game
seans interview said that there still is more to come this year
I said Tornadoes like an hour ago
no screaming in here either
the compression on steam is better so I think the steam update will be 6gb or smth
there's a hype channel for a reason
it's not compression on steam, but it's because they can do the update in a more... efficient way. It only needs to download the changed files, other consoles need to do the entire .pak file I believe
aw man they added more lush grass to Ultra only, I won't be able to see it :(
ahhh
the difference is staggering
ps4 and pc use the same files essentially
BRO
Does it download faster when in sleep mode on PS4 or is that just a myth?
there was once a like 3Gb update for pc that was like 50Mb for pc
IM GONNA GET MY DREAM FREIGHTER
since it was just a few sound files, but ps4 had to download the entire pak with sounds haha
AAAA
is the update out on steam yet?
not yet is seems
hmm now that portal interference is lifted, does that mean people can just quickly jump to the centre?
not necessarily just that, it could be improving upon the stuff they added
or adding new things entirely that will be a part of the 3.0 line of updates
definitely not
new permadeath save here we goooo
https://www.twitch.tv/ecdmdragon gonna start another game soon
ECDMDragon streams live on Twitch! Check out their videos, sign up to chat, and join their community.
there's new traveller heads?
nice!
haha
yeah expected
have fun all! β€οΈ
they're really good at compressing assets and plus its not 4k, right?
the thing that takes up the most space is sound and textures
models are pretty slim in the game
yeah figured so
the actual game data for the whole game (like in terms of what items there are etc) is like... a few Mb?
almost there boi
and by a few I mean 10's
Makes sense, since so much of the game is procedural
aww the meteors dont break the planet surface
PS4 has to redownload everything
then to wait for like, and hour for the exe to decompile π’
π₯Ί
I'm on #go-live-2
they should try to make dents, even the minotaur can dent the land
"infested paradise"
sweet
woah
Every planet has a small chance of becoming infested with bizarre alien growths.
very interesting
funky
there's finally a lot of reasons to explore planets properly
Yo bioluminescent grass
Damn, the exe is 7Mb bigger!
patch notes wise this isn't a huge update for sure
but a pretty important and large step for the future of variety in this game
They did sand worms
I never thought theyβd do it
But it happened
And big fucking structures
they added some use to them but it sounds pretty surface level
Still
it's hard to like... think of what you would do with huge structures though
Itβs a shame I canβt play for a week or two
I was expecting them to be totally aesthetic
Still, just for the spectacle of it
an abandoned project or something
Even if it isnβt too much
A depth readout has been added to the player HUD when underwater. oh wow interesting
God Iβm so happy
a few years back me and another guy added in some big structures, but they were just visual. I wanted to add some lore or something, but in the end there is't too much you can do really
This is all I ever wanted
Galactic Hub planet has red grass and bubbles
grass on bubble planets now?
-A smaller number of new crafting products have been added to replace them.
-The number of specialist survival products have been reduced. The stack size for the remaining survival products has been increased.```
very curious about these changes
Or are there bubbles on non-exotics?
yeah the exotic planets can have grass
Wait
Some variants can have grass, at least pre-Origins
Sorry alright
Spoiler stream go live 3
Iβm just excited okay
Bubble one wasn't among those
Can I upload a screenshot here spoiler?
only the calcishroom planets had grass
On a hot planet. SUPER dense forest of those animated spike trees
now all exotics can have grass
oh wow that's awesome @dreamy cypress
Help I'm in the apocalypse
That looks more like exotic assets being added to existing biomes. that's wonderful news
Very
haha there's no new base stuff :^)
anyway I'm done downloading, gonna play now as I can't alt tab without big crashes
Was honestly relieving to have Sean admit that they'd neglected the exploration aspect for the last few major updates
Galactic Hub system has 3 stars
dood..
this is the best update to nms BY FAR
God damn it PSN download speeds I really want to try this before I have to leave in an hour 
oh wait I just saw this: Added diminishing returns to resource extractors, so that after building a large number of extractors in one place, the amount extracted by each new extractor is slightly less.
hahaha yes they finally nerfed huge farms, thank you!
I did :(
but at least there's new stuff on them and I'll just use mods for that
Also found a lush planet with long grass and no trees


π₯
