maybe they don't sell xclass modules in all stations
#nms-spoilers
red mason
hard stirrup
I can 100% confirm that not all stations do.
red mason
Btw I found out how to get all these
for the blue ones, you just find them on any planet, there's a new icon of a burried chest to hunt
viscid gorge
First 3 are caches
red mason
the yellow ones you learn them
viscid gorge
Magnetic resonator is in scrap vendor?
red mason
nah
red mason
yellow ones you get a plan for an outpost like of other recipes
viscid gorge
I remember i got Quantum from last Manuf facility
i actually wanted to pick what i could learn
they probable shove those yellow ones in yo face when you do the manuf facilites then give you back the selection menu
hard stirrup
Yes...the first three are essentially things you press square on and they give you stuff....one gave me a thing that's supposed to help with fauna discovery on a planet....no idea how good it is, but I'll test it. Another of those interactable things gave me an X-class module.
fathom notch
a ship just landed right in front of me and the guy's selling contraband, this is the BEST
red mason
GG
fathom notch
like they just put down right in front of me!! i thought they were another player but no, it's an NPC ship and the guy's selling allsorts of upgrades
hard stirrup
X-class modules so far seem not-good to be honest. I bought one for my multitool scanner and it only had +10,410% fauna value.....which alone is higher than S class modules can give you for that stat but S modules also give you really high flora value and a lot of scanning range bonus....up to +40% scanning range per S module....so trading all that for a tiny bit more fauna value doesn't seem desirable.
fathom notch
well yeah, they're more about being cheap and luck-of-the-draw
red mason
depends which one your get btw, early reports suggests that the 300 nanites ones are not worth it, it's better to take the 700
hard stirrup
But here is something, this seems like new tech to me....I don't believe that regular module alternatives exist for this at all, do they?
red mason
got the exact same one on the space station, and yes the X class are more about improving things that couldn't be improved by regular modules
hard stirrup
Not all of them though....the X-class multitool scanner tech I got conflicted with my three S modules so it wasn't something I could just add on top...it was either that OR S module so that was not a good thing.
What are the new craftable products for, anyone have any ideas? Are they just for units?
hard stirrup
Ah...ok...so they are for repairing slots or blueprint MT tech then.
red mason
ye
sleek dragon
Anyone found the structure on the trailer yet ?
red mason
yep, found 2 of em at random
not much to see here
except for maybe an "artifact exchange" thingy
will prob be useful later
hard stirrup
I tried to work with the Artifact Exchange Vault but they seem broken right now....I tried to give it a Historical Document and it would not recognize I had one to give. If anyone can get one to work I am interested in what they give in exchange.
sleek dragon
@red mason not that one. The giant sphere thing in the trailer
fathom notch
where might i find the exchange vault?
mighty rampart
@hard stirrup what did you have in your inventory that you were trying to give?
it only accepts proc gen treasure you find such as the one from buried ancient ruins (the ones that need 3 keys)
the new stuff that was added (buried cache, subterranean plant/mineral) don't count
hard stirrup
@mighty rampart The Age-Old Letters which are distinctly marked as "Historical Documents" in their description....and yes they are procedurally genrated treasure from an artifact cache from ruins.
mighty rampart
I think it only accepts either plants, tech or fossils
hard stirrup
Definitely does not accept regular fossils you dig up yourself.....the ones it wants are Fossil Samples and those come from either artifact chests or from a fossil space encounter.
pallid stump
Didn't accept the plant I found from an artifact container in the ruins. I think it may be bugged.
mighty rampart
yeah report it then
pallid stump
Will do.
Still, said plant sold for about 1.5 mil, so a win-win either way.
On an unrelated note, I just stumbled across a grave in which the traveler in question was ratted out to the sentinels by none other than the Korvax because he got a little too curious about the Convergence.
hard stirrup
Honestly I just want to know what rewards the Artifact Exchange Vaults are supposed to give.
pallid stump
Seems Apollo was right to be suspicious of them.
Honestly I just want to know what rewards the Artifact Exchange Vaults are supposed to give.
@hard stirrup Same.
fathom notch
how do i actually locate the exchange vaults???
hard stirrup
@fathom notch I am not aware or any good method. I've seen people say to use maps for inhabited buildings from a cartographer but those can just as easily find any other type of inhabited building or you can find one through dumb luck(which is how I found one). Not currently aware of a better way.
fathom notch
so basically, roll and reroll, got it
hard stirrup
@mighty rampart How many tries did it take you to get one marked for you?
mighty rampart
second
there's not many stuff it finds anyway - habited outpost, trade outpost, observatory, planetary archives
hard stirrup
Yeah but there are lots of the other building types....not sure how common the archives are....they might be just one per planet like portals.
timid mist
Navigation data is really easy to find anyways so just get a couple stacks of those maps and try now and then
Though yeah having a solid way to locate them would be nice if they're supposed to be a method of trading up
gloomy isle
Any idea as to the extent of the new colour palette?
I've not seen the same combo twice yet but I'm curious to see if it's on par with what it used to be before next
There definitely seems to be a best of both worlds in that there's both more vibrant and gloomier colours
uncut harness
@gloomy isle Not sure about specifics but it’s definitely a huge bump up. I used to get so mad at the colour palette before, now I’m totally satisfied. So it’s clearly been stepped up big time!
earnest wharf
anyone know strategies to see the "new planets"?
i'm visiting unmapped systems (yellow/red/green/blue) and am only seeing new fauna so far
timid mist
it's not a for sure thing but if you look on the discovery page and see a planet with some really weird colors, like teal and pink, I've found those to be new more often than not
uncut harness
anyone know strategies to see the "new planets"?
@earnest wharf just keep jumping mate, rare class stellar bodies tend to produce some weird planets
earnest wharf
what keywords are we looking for?
uncut harness
tectonic, volcanic are two new ones i've found
timid mist
well "cloudy" is a new type of lush sub-biome, idk if it's always new generation but it's new props

i'm still yet to find more different planets, which is good in a way. i'll play the game more to find them
i've also found 'desert'

also my ship has decided to destroy itself by hurling itself at a jagged crystal
hard stirrup
Ok so I've looked at dozens of X-class modules and as far as I can tell in general they are just bad and not desirable....with a single exception....hazard protection modules, which are new and have no existing non-X-class alternatives. Has anyone else seen any other new X-class modules that are new or would be worth any consideration over S modules?
earnest wharf
where is the MT upgrade station?
prime inlet
space station, next to the mt cabinet
hard stirrup
Not worth it....S modules are better....they can go up to +95% life support AND they get a solar pannel power bonus on top.
Generally even the X-class modules that can have one good stat are not worth it @prime inlet over S class.
@earnest wharf literally next to every multitool tech modules seller on every space station.
earnest wharf
bwah
will check after lunch
i have an A class tech MT
the white one with the bubbles on it
hard stirrup
It sounds like you are describing an Experimental multitool.
prime inlet
Generally even the X-class modules that can have one good stat are not worth it @prime inlet over S class.
@hard stirrup well, we've been using s-class mods for a long time, i didn't say black market mods were worth it
over s-class that is.
i haven't done a lot of bumping so idk if there's better rolls or not
i do know that i bumped once and the same x-class went from +1% solar panel, to +74% solar panel.
hard stirrup
It looks like with re-rolling the hazard protection modules could have up to +10% for each of the four hazards, they also appear to not be able to have less than four bonuses(one to each hazard)....in the absence of S modules a potential +60% to each hazard plus bonuses from connections sounds intriguing....I plan to investigate that at least.

To think they still plan to ship several more updates this year
It's probably only two, but it's crazy
timid mist
Idk about several, I'm thinking one more
uncut harness
There's probably going to be a next gen patch so the new consoles run the game at max settings
And maybe something else...? Not a lot of time left this year
timid mist
I'm thinking one small content drop maybe like living ship or desolation, which may include next gen support.
pseudo frost
next gen and ray tracing most likely
uncut harness
Same here, but that's would be just one update.
timid mist
support is probably the wrong word because there's backwards compat
i think one update is reasonable to expect, I don't really expect two
imagine ray traced gravitino balls

by november end
rancid lance
maybe dont skip hind leg day

what evolutionary trait would this creature with these tiny legs

my guess is the back legs didn't get much use because all the weight is in the front
so they're in the process of being evolved out

also is this crater new? there is a single horror egg in there
this might be how the horror spread

cracked desert texture pls go away
nocturne zephyr
I'm going to be honest. I'm not sure if I have the drive to continue exploring. I've seen a couple of the very high mountain planets, but if that's all they did to terrain generation with the new planets, I just don't know.
I don't like to be a debby downer
uncut harness
I don't mind it too much, sure it's not optimal, but everything else more than compensates for it imho
earnest wharf
but @nocturne zephyr you can enlarge your tool
nocturne zephyr
hwut
Oh yeah
I know
That will be a good reason to continue. Even when exploring, it really helps to have a goal in mind
rancid lance
i wanted a dune planet as well but everywher you go its either rocky texture or dry cracked sand
and very lush for a desert
nocturne zephyr
That's unfortunate
They add sandworms but not sand
With that said, the new system of adding new planets into systems is a positive. It means they can add in more planets with new biomes and new terrain when they want.
We now know they'll never mess with planets already discovered and built upon, unless they ever allow players to move their bases
rugged yew
@cedar fog tell that to the 5 bases I deleted yesterday
wrong user. I wanted @nocturne zephyr
🙂
fringe swift
least they trying <shrug>
honestly thought if they did another variety update that we'd see another wipe
rancid lance
dude, my once lush home planet is now infested.
wdym the ydont mess with discovered planet
rugged yew
all my bases ended up being 100s of meters in the air
one was almost out of the atmosphere
reaching the base computer to delete them was an adventure in itself
nocturne zephyr
@rugged yew why you delete your bases?
rugged yew
they were all for mineral farming, but the planet underneath was changed to something else
and well, the floating in the air part
cedar fog
do the infested planets say they're infested in orbit? or is it random for every single anomalous planet
uncut harness
The one i encounted was listed as infested before we landed
rugged yew
wasn't too happy to see all my activated indium storage be replaced by normal indium

Oh. They said that wouldn't happen in the patch notes. That sucks

haven't dared to go back to my main base yet in fear what I'll discover 😄

Neat.

I saw they fixed the trading bug where you can flood markets with cobalt and buy it back 🙂

the manufacturing facility tree has changed, but only this one (as they added new crafting items for advanced tech)

exciting to see some new structures around
mighty rampart
looks like you cannot craft those minerals anymore
along with the removal of advanced ion battery
on the flip side, looks like you can learn the recipe for microprocessor without needing to do the base missions now
uncut harness
the manufacturing facility tree has changed, but only this one (as they added new crafting items for advanced tech)
@mighty rampart uh. Oxygen capsules are still a thing? they were supposedly one of the removed items
mighty rampart
they are
they were removed from your already learnt blueprints at the start of the game
back in Beyond I think? or Synthesis
uncut harness
No no, I meant that is supposed to be gone forever.
mighty rampart
interesting, then this is an error then
also the unstable plasma being repeated twice
uncut harness
I mean, i don't know for sure, but they mentioned they removed a lot of lesser used crafting products
the gel does the exact same thing and can still be used, so I'm assuming the capsule still being there is a bug
mighty rampart
yeah that makes sense
uncut harness
I got spooked yesterday cause I had completely made the switch to advanced batteries
It's pretty much impossible to die now that the mech and the spaceship can be summoned at any time so it wasn't a big deal tho
mighty rampart
lol imo its kind of OP, the ion batteries
you can make a whole bunch after just a minute or two of mining cobalt
and they fully charge all tech that use it
uncut harness
I just buy them, 500 a pop
mighty rampart
besides that I mean, I'm talking very early game
uncut harness
the advanced ones used to be crafting-only, but now the normal ones are just as good...
yeah they're pretty op
mighty rampart
they should remove them from your already learnt recipes
and make you raid a facility to learn it
shadow warren
Stack size is the battery issue in Survival and PD IIRC

about modules, I can have 6 jetpack modules if I put 3 in the tech and 3 in the common slots?
shadow warren
yes, plus the extra modules from the anomoly
rugged yew
yes I knew about that; I didn't know I could split them to get even more jetpack upgrades
shadow warren
The ones purchased at the anomoly don't count for the 3 limit for any tech.
Yea, II found that out late as well. pretty overpowering 🙂

One of my absolute favorite changes is the fact that different planets have different skies and lightning conditions at night
Night used to be very boring and now it shows you another side of a planet's beauty

Aren’t the gek ||first spawns literal nazis?||
@full plover yes

Yeah

Yeah apparently they were trying to rebuild the empire

In a sort of ||hydra/shield relationship where the first spawns hide amongst them||
cloud nacelle
But the sentinels are more aggressive then they were before
full plover
Oh god
cloud nacelle
So they can't rebuild the empire
I'm really not sure
I don't remember it properly

What if you wanted to reform gek empire, but sentinel said angry beeping

Been years since I've gone through the lore thoroughly
I love the geks fav race

The vy’keen are the first race that took me in really, my first frigate was a vy’keen one
And I adore the honorbound warrior culture
severe sun
anyone in game and fancy doing some testing?
I think hand mining with the terrain manipulator is broken
full plover
Okay the gist of it is basically like ||the vy’keen had a civil war between the worshippers of atlas and the acolytes of their messiah type figure who’s name I forget atm||
cloud nacelle
Hirk
I believe
There was also someone else
Ness
Nell
Nonce
Something with an n
full plover
||they see the destruction of sentinels as a religious process, and the other guy tried to rebel because he believed that it was an insult to atlas, his side worshipped the atlas and they waged war over it, where hirk and him did battle, and hirk arose victorious, ascending to messiah status among their belief system and being immortalized in a similar way that Jesus did for Christians||
It’s kind of interesting honestly
cloud nacelle
And then they attacked the gek
Because the gek were holding the korvax hostage
And eating them
Using them for slavery
full plover
Yeah
They attacked the gek basically because slavery was an abhorrent idea to them
Not because of freedom or anything, but because they found it dishonorable
cloud nacelle
And also because the gek had conquered almost the entire galaxy
And were fighting the sentinels
full plover
The vy’keen lore boils to “don’t fuck with the followers of hirk” basically
full plover
I would love to see that
full plover
Travelers?
full plover
I always thought race 4 was the travelers lmao
cloud nacelle
Since this race had come across travelers

I doubt they were humans

And they noted that travelers couldn't die
full plover
Otherwise we wouldn’t be called an anomaly
full plover
I vaguely recall this
cloud nacelle
Crashed freighters
uncut harness
If I’m not mistaken the game also says the vy’keen worship a false prophet. Hirk didn’t hear the monolith (to add onto the Vy’keen texts you guys were speaking about)
full plover
Yeah
uncut harness
If I’m also not mistaken, Nal was the one who heard it

Hirk is a messiah basically because he called Nal a liar and in the ensuing war, killed him

The boundary failures have a different take on it
According to them, "Both believed the other to have heard nothing"

Sentinels are fun but imagine fighting first spawn or Nal acolytes
cloud nacelle
Greg wrote new lore for nms I think
uncut harness
Yeah, or some of those glassed creatures from the world of glass
cloud nacelle
Oh fuck yeah
uncut harness
There are many possible antagonists that are still just locked to flavor text
Good text, but always tell-y. No show-y
cloud nacelle
Dude the world of glass is legit my favourite lore piece
full plover
First spawn and Nal guys definitely seem like the most threatening
Because they could easily give sentinels a run for their money
cloud nacelle
The sentinels screamed when the creatures in the world of glass ran their finger across them or smth
full plover
Yeah
cloud nacelle
The world of glass is where all dead things go
full plover
It’s basically the afterlife
uncut harness
It’s part of it. Read ARG lore
the game hints but never divulges
The sentinels have existed the entire time the universe was made and preserved the dead in it, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the reason old empires arise again is being funneled from the world of glass back into prime reality. If that is ever the case, they should look strange
So the dead come back, of sorts
full plover
God
cloud nacelle
Okay I forgot but why did the sentinels go rogue
full plover
I don’t know Korvax lore aside from enslavement so I fear what antagonist could come from them
uncut harness
I’m fairly certain one lore piece even has a first spawn in the world of glass, still living and untouched by the glass family. They die eventually but it’s insane one was still alive in there
full plover
Okay I forgot but why did the sentinels to rogue
@cloud nacelle telamon set them loose to try and save atlas from corruption and atlas pulled a no u
cloud nacelle
Oh
uncut harness
Telamon? I thought atlas’ corruption was the only reason sentinels went rogue
cloud nacelle
Didn't the atlas reset the entire universe to save everything from the sentinels
full plover
Nope, Telamon set them loose at first, but now that he’s trapped in the players exosuit he can’t stop them
Iirc boundary failure text straight up breaks the fourth wall at one point over this
cloud nacelle
I really don't remember the boundary failure logs
uncut harness
I’ll have to go back through that section of the story. I’ve always been more well versed in the ARG and world of glass though, not really the races or sentinels
cloud nacelle
Same
full plover
I’m the opposite
uncut harness
Also I read Telamon lore like three years ago during atlas rises haha
full plover
I’m well versed with vy’keen and Telamon lore and that’s about it

I really hope one day someone catalogs the lore of civilized space
If there is any
I hope one day there’s a 2b2t level interesting lore for the players

I keep forgetting to try to /scan/ one in the air.

okay this is the weirdest fauna I've ever found so far on a planet
it's a normal looking green lush world, kinda boring
but then I see something digging, and it's a mini hairy sandworm

Put your multitool in it

then there was this guy rolling around
and an underground creature with no model that apparently just spews vents of air/gas from the ground every few feet

@umbral token it's called a boundary failure, it has some extra lore bits if you interact with it
every time you find one it gives you the next sequence in the lore

@timid mist ah i see, well it spoke and apparently its self-aware? but it didnt exactly lead me anywhere else

Found a quagmire planet. Looks really cool

Very much wondering if the "Infested" Worlds will spread to more planets or revert to their original planet type as the Abyss storyline progresses...
Can't wait for the weekend mission lore to restart.
Can wait for the weekend missions themselves tho
timid mist
yeah @umbral token they don't give any sort of instructions or missions, really just a lore source. Flavor text more or less.

i went to my indium farm, which has gladly been restored after patch to the toxic planet it was (with storm crystals). Started moving to the 2nd storage area and one of those giant worms literally flew over the top of the farm. Didn't get a screenie because it was first time i've seen one and was more amazed watching it, but if they follow set paths i'll try to get one soon.
i stayed for about 15 mins though and it didn't return, so no idea about set paths. 😩
this is the farm, absolutely mad planet.
Got it. 😆
(planet almost looks different but no storm taking place in 2nd screenie. if you have trouble seeing one yourself again on a base planet, try leaving and porting back in via station.)
tough jackal
is it possible to now have 2 biomes per planet
uncut harness
no. multi-biome planets are still reserved to hope, if I am not mistaken
as in, we hope they'll happen one day
Yeah, probably need a lot of code for the biome transitions to work intra-planet (as in look natural)
Definitely doable though, but a lot of small details to cover

I’m still regretting my choice for Artemis, I’ve gone back and changed it but guilt persist
uncut harness
what was your choice
Hey, what's the quickest way to enter a second galaxy? Do I need to reach the center of Euclid and complete the whole Artemis storyline?
I just assumed you needed to beat the game. Haven't done that yet.
compact coyote
i decided to put artemis out of its misery

If I could put the Groundhog Day film in the simulation, I would let it keep going

So, if I get this straight, when you reach the galactic center and you pick another galaxy, you'll always get to the "first/next galaxy in the list of that type"? So If I pick Harsh from Euclid, I'll always get to Calypso?

I found a couple of basalt planets today, but even when you harvest the stones you don't get much

Very pretty planet, very little threat. Just the occasional storm and very aggressive predators.
Not my cup of tea but I'll throw down an outpost.
cloud epoch
@mighty rampart re balmy planet with storms maybe being a bug: from the notes
Planets will no longer be labelled as ‘paradise’ if they have any hostile environmental conditions.
guessing balmy might no longer count as true paradise? would need an up to date data mine to be 100% certain
quasi niche
Heh.. paradise planets. Those are so last patch. It's all about volcanoes now!
cloud epoch
funny enough i got a "true" paradise moon in a formerly one planet system
so dunno if that's like crazy luck or what haha
timid mist
one of my base worlds is similar to that @quasi niche , has those large shrooms in places too
the bioluminescent stuff really adds a nice touch to the previously somewhat boring green grass worlds lol
and even better when it's not green grass, and not a lush
also found this weird ass radioactive planet
quasi niche
I'm trying to find a green grass swamp with non-coolaid water and beetles and or butterflies.
Kinda like this but with bugs.

So, if I get this straight, when you reach the galactic center and you pick another galaxy, you'll always get to the "first/next galaxy in the list of that type"? So If I pick Harsh from Euclid, I'll always get to Calypso?
@uncut harness No. If you get to the galactic centre and do the jump then you go to the next galaxy in sequence, so if you're in #1 you go to #2, if in #2 you go to #3 if you're in #10 you go to #11 etc. You only get the choice of which galaxy type you want to go to at the end of the Artemis quest line, the end of the Atlas Path puts you in #2. But your last bit is correct pick harsh from Euclid and you end up in Calypso.
uncut harness
Ah ok. So I might as well do Artemis then
vestal ledge
kinda sad they took out the OG creatures from exotic worlds 😦
rancid lance
yeah i'd rather they keep exotic world fauna in the theme of the planet itself but different shapes probably
seeing a cow in a bladed planet feels weird

My dream is a lush planet with the bioluminescent grass

the end of the Atlas Path puts you in #2
Wait since when does the Atlas Path send you to another galaxy?

my current gamma farm looks like this now. rad worls are looking awesome.
rancid lance
wow
is that extreme ? cuz all the fog and shit
on my extreme desert there's dust all the time even when not storming
true solstice
prime inlet
yeah, @rancid lance extreme hazard planet. there was an extreme storm going at the time i took the screenshot. @true solstice yes, but gamma root will require a radiation biome, for example. each plant will require their own native biome for this, except plants that have no native biome (like gutroot or albumen pearl)
rancid lance
nice. my AI mine constantly hums darude sandstorm
prime inlet
😂
rancid lance
during actual storms it screams it
prime inlet
i was having a blast last night using tornadoes to fly across the planet surface, in a scorched world with the added jetpack efficiency provided by extreme heat storms.
this update is just too much fun 🙂
uncut harness
Damn I really hope they keep doing this
mighty rampart
this was pretty atmospheric, like you can see this is why the planet is toxic
prime inlet
man that toxic planet looked really cool; those are night time shots, right? what did it look like during other times of the day, @mighty rampart ?
gloomy isle
I like how even though there's new sub biomes, there variety within that too
I found a desert planet with those weird glowing bone things too
mighty rampart
it was still nice during the day but nothing compared to night
also I found that thing you see in the artwork!
radioactive planet with frequent storms and aggressive aentinels

I'm gonna say it. I liked the update, but the game still lacks depth, so I'm not calling this a variety update.
It fixed the terrain, but the systems are still so shallow. I'm a little disappointed that the ||colossal archives were just lore terminals and shops|| - they have so much potential, like being the entrance to desolation style labyrinths. There's only ||1 sort of buried plant and 1 sort of buried mineral to dig up||. ||Meteors don't leave anything behind (that I've found).|| ||Planetary NPC's are identical (bar the x class upgrades) to the NPC's in stations, they don't have any special behaviour - like they could mine, or hunt us.||. ||Wild robots all have the same behaviour.||
Hopefully this will all be added to in future updates, but I'm still holding out for a full 'variety update'
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
ocean wyvern
that's a lot to expect with the way the game functions; this is directed at gamer not adam haha

hitching a ride with tornadoes is a lot of fun. i think this is just the ground work for things to come

hiding from the storm (and sentinels)
also found this weird little guy. would mostly move underground and occasionally jump out and back in
also giant beetles on that stormy toxic planet

you can actually see that beetle in the background of the first image, if you look closely
timid mist
yeah the atmosphere of the game feels so much better now
standing inside with the storm going and seeing the bugs fly and land was so cool
also found a glowing little jelly guy
prime inlet
that's cool! i found these... primitive lifeforms?
timid mist
ohh those are similar to the ones i posted! I like to see that the structure does vary a little
do they fly or dig and hop?
thin pawn
those things are so playful
they like to fly at you
are any of them agressive?
that would be scary honestly ha
timid mist
yeah i've been scared of finding a hostile burrowing creature, they're so fast lol
like imagine this squid thing coming at you
prime inlet
do they fly or dig and hop?
@timid mist they fly, but i've encountered another similar species that did dig and hop
timid mist
nice, the one I found dug and hopped lol
such a cool variation on things
also, totally off topic from this, but I have a theory about what the next update might be called
pseudo frost
timid mist
Sean hinted at exo mech after living ship released with a robot emoji
While we were waiting on origins he had that random poll about "who had the best odyssey", which turned into literally nothing lol. I get it could be a reference to their own "journey", but maybe the next update is called Odyssey
Though they would probably avoid that since Elite is doing it
timid mist
yeah same
that's like my one wish before I'm 100% happy lol, even though this update was amazing
compact coyote
i havent experienced npc landing on planets yet
pseudo frost
Like i have a big base but its so empty
And i want NPCs walking around and doing stuff in it
Would be pretty cool
And also zoos
Alllow us to grow and farm animals
Grow cows for steak
Grow reptiles for leather or something
They poop and you get fertilizer for plants
timid mist
it's happened to me a couple times @compact coyote
once I was talking to one and I heard an extremelyt loud sound and when i left the dialogue there was a worm behind me lol

just vent creature I guess
pseudo frost
It was like a big blue smoke trail and a balloon/blimp like thing as body
Oh mine was actually flying
timid mist
that's pretty cool
uncut harness
I know before the update I encountered clear bubbles with deep red liquid in them, and it would leak and make farting noises.
pseudo frost
I thought it was a ship that was crashing but it wasn't

Oh yeah these

i found one that just rolls, no farts though

A giant bee?
Oddly i have not come across many of the "normal" pre origins creatures

had diplos on my gamma farm, they're gone now
i was a bit sad that happened because they were the first giant ones i've ever found

I've encountered plenty of the old creatures...I was hoping deer and felines would be more majestic now.....Nope.

Are they really removed or just rare?

By old creatures I mean like, creatures that resemble the old ones.
pseudo frost
Yeah i mean same, pre origins creatures
uncut harness
Nah, plenty of old creatures still around
pseudo frost
Hmm

it would be cool if they added some more flair to old creatures later on. It does make finding the weird creatures more special though.

They seem to have added pilot encounters on planets
Sometimes pilots just randomly land on a planet in wilderness
and allow you to trade with them or buy their ship
just like on a space station
but the only thing you can buy is X-class upgrades but for nanites
I bought a movement module upgrade and it seems to be identical to an A class?
So not that bad
It could have been much worse from what I'm reading
I think they should make them more valuable
or give them some unique buffs
like, having lesser stats than S class upgrades but giving some unique abilities instead
like idk
