That was before beyond, not too long after Next...

[native mirage]

Horizon zero Sky baby

[quasi niche]

This planet has everything I wanted in 2.0... I am actually mad. I was looking for so long and as soon as I set my sights on something else I get a super pretty tropical planet with cool fauna... AND flora.

I may as well make a base here and actually construct. I'll go on my beetle hunt some other time...

[last anchor]

Nice pics

[static urchin]

Close ups
@cursive kernel How did you find them?

is there a certain way to locate them or is it random

[mighty rampart]

Random but in abandoned systems

[green gate]

the robotic fauna is so cool :O

[prime inlet]

robots? found some in uncharted systems, haven't tested in abandoned systems

[nocturne zephyr]

Any new fishies?

[cursive kernel]

Found in uncharted system

[uncut harness]

oh no... I just learned the words first and spawn in gek monkaS

[mental raft]

How many system warps does it take to get to the 3rd beacon of the Artemis Path story arc?

It's taking forever.

[vague badge]

"...show your support for Ariadne by adopting the title Like-Traveller, and more – visit the Quicksilver Bot to browse the full range.

Interesting thing to say in their development update

[mental raft]

That's at the Galactic Core right?

[quasi niche]

@nocturne zephyr Old system of how fish spawned/worked ie; 2-3 common fish/jelly, 1 uncommon crab, 1 rare shark, has been removed entirely. Anything can spawn in any slot. Furthermore, there seem to be new "parts" and behavioral verity. But no new species.

[nocturne zephyr]

ah gotcha. thanks

[mental raft]

Crap, nothing's going on, it just keeps saying that I'm to far away from the mission & that it keeps sending me to more & more system warps.

[vague badge]

There's no weekly today? :(

I wanna see if Ariadne is gonna summon the void lords

[timid mist]

purple/pink swamp world with gigantic mountains

[covert wing]

found the most beautiful, peaceful swamp planet

been just running around for 40 minutes now

[pallid stump]

Found a desolate planet with these things just strewn amongst the rocks.

[covert wing]

Gravitational tempest are so cool
@chilly drift @hybrid pendant seems someone found a gravitational thingy!!

[pallid stump]

Honestly, other than these glitches(?), the planet just kind of looks like Mars.

[covert wing]

ugh it didn't copy the screenshot

[hybrid pendant]

@covert wing thanks for the heads up

[covert wing]

looks like a dead moon? or one of the corrupted biomes??

[timid mist]

this says it wasn't discovered but i swear this can't have actually been the real proc gen name for this planet lmao

but.. i don't have any connection to discovery servers and it's a new planet

[pallid stump]

What are these "infected" planets I keep hearing about?

[hybrid pendant]

well

they are infected

[covert wing]

is it the void egg ones?

[timid mist]

yeah lemme get a pic of the planet

it has the most insane terrain I've seen so far

like ridiculous

[chilly drift]

@covert wing Yea they are so fun to jump really far away

[timid mist]

here's a shot on foot, can't really see how insane the terrain is from here though

[hybrid pendant]

damn

i love that thhose holes or hills can be on any planet type

it brings the variety to an insane level

[covert wing]

still can't believe this update is real

[pallid stump]

I've got a planet that's nothing but those hills.

[timid mist]

from the ship

[hybrid pendant]

hey

[covert wing]

man...

[hybrid pendant]

in those two pics

[hybrid pendant]

u can see how different they can look

one more pointy one is more smooth

[radiant elk]

16...16...16...16

[fervent eagle]

is there a good way to find the mega structures?

[timid mist]

managed to land on a peak. insane scale.

[radiant elk]

Is random way good?

[timid mist]

if you zoom in a little i'm standing on that ridge closest to the camera

[fervent eagle]

I was thinking of using navigational data to get points of interest maps

[radiant elk]

Well, that's not bad way.

[pallid stump]

Signal Booster works too.

[radiant elk]

You can get a lot of Data in some abandoned bases.

[fervent eagle]

yeah, I've got hella maps stockpiled already

[radiant elk]

)))

[pallid stump]

Same.

[cloud epoch]

can moons have water tho? cus i think that died with next (or was it beyond?)

[radiant elk]

Yes, they can. But most times they dead or dangerous.

[hybrid pendant]

cool

[cloud hearth]

Are swamp planets all the same?

[vague badge]

Files say the ship trails are available in rainbow. Wish HG would release it already

[hybrid pendant]

no planets are the same @cloud hearth

[cloud hearth]

Yeah, I mean as in

[radiant elk]

Well, they pretty same.

[cloud hearth]

do they have little variation or what

[radiant elk]

Flora I mean.

[cloud hearth]

They seem pretty samey

[hybrid pendant]

yes

[radiant elk]

Maybe colors.

[hybrid pendant]

but that what variation is

[cloud hearth]

Reminds me of the regular types before Origins

[hybrid pendant]

didnt find them yet

soo ur lucky

[radiant elk]

I seen one.

[covert wing]

I think it varies a bit. I've seen swamp worlds with little huts on them

The one I just walked around for 40 minutes didn't have any of those

[radiant elk]

And it looks pretty same with trailer.

[covert wing]

But it did have plants that lit up at night and land dolphins

Also didn't get dark at night which is something I haven't seen before 🤔

[hybrid pendant]

yeah some planets change colors at night

[shell zealot]

is it worth to do the story? someone kinda spoilled to me that you lose everything doing story. is that true?

[covert wing]

nope

[shell zealot]

no for which question 😛

[covert wing]

the latter

[shell zealot]

alright, guess ill do it

[covert wing]

Story is good. A bit too much padding and fetch questing though

[shell zealot]

i was afraid that id waste my time

losing everything at the end

[radiant elk]

No, it's ok.

[timid mist]

i restarted for the update with a new save and it's much more enjoyable with the new stuff

feels like exploring with a side of story now

[hollow marten]

Any PS4 players wanna group up

[shell zealot]

thanks for the answers

[radiant elk]

||Well, if you want to reset, it will reset|| @shell zealot

[shell zealot]

ok so i can make the choice to stay as it is

gotcha

[radiant elk]

Yep.

[fervent eagle]

@timid mist I might restart, but it'll suck being ||P O O R||

[loud lily]

personal forcefield can move space station npcs

[fervent eagle]

hahahaa

[radiant elk]

https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. Report if you want.

[loud lily]

yeye reporting

this is fun

[radiant elk]

)))

[fervent eagle]

eject them into SPACE

like the imposters they are

[loud lily]

I'm actually gonna do that

pushing them into the wall sticks them there

[timid mist]

Tbh panface you make money pretty quickly now

Even without farming. Just so many things to sell

[cloud epoch]

dig dem bones

or whatever the new hotness is

[radiant elk]

And if someone give you Starship AI Valves...||RICH||.

[covert wing]

A fully upgraded scanner is also a good money maker

[loud lily]

is having a multi tool specifically with only a scanner and all s class upgrades a good idea?

[covert wing]

I dunno if that'd be necessary. you can only have max three S modules anyway

[vague badge]

How powerful is the boost upgrade from the artemis bobblehead?

[loud lily]

oh i didn't know

[bitter remnant]

I can't play this weekend due to being away from home. Is there a new weekend mission with the update?

[prime inlet]

one of the systems i have farms on had one of its original planets turn into a desert biome. i had never seen mountains like this. they're super high.

seriously thinking how can i land or get to the top of one, hopefully in a storm i'll have enough jetpack efficiency to get all the way up there

probably not though 😄

but i really want to base jump from one of those.

this sort of terrain might be useful for players that like to build orbital bases?

[cloud hearth]

I'm very happy with the increased color palette, but I wish they went even further with it

And added even more combinations

[foggy jacinth]

Hmmm. Just found a whispering egg/bio horror in a random egg, not on an airless planet, or at an abandoned building.

[prime inlet]

yeah, seen them around in unusual places now

[plucky zephyr]

i love the vibe of this pic haha

[tight siren]

I love that scene

[fervent eagle]

T pose

[covert wing]

seriously thinking how can i land or get to the top of one, hopefully in a storm i'll have enough jetpack efficiency to get all the way up there
@prime inlet Game will let you climb any surface regardless of jetpack capacity. just face the thing you want to climb and hold the jump button

[prime inlet]

it eventually runs out though

[covert wing]

weird. never had that happen

the whole point of that feature is to make sure you don't get stuck in a deep hole or something similar

[prime inlet]

just had that happen earlier, climbing mountains to try and get hit by lightning again

[tribal oriole]

@prime inlet Claim it as your base and scaffold up lol

[prime inlet]

hehe

an aggressive sentinel spawned right next to me when jetpack ran out 😄

[tribal oriole]

lol

[heady fable]

so the giant archive things are just glorified monoliths with an auxiliary minor settlement? meh...

... and an artifact slot machine. okay.jpg

[rich silo]

are those giant buildings on any particular world type

[heady fable]

I found it on a lush planet

the ones with star bulbs

[rich silo]

i wanna build a base near one, for the view

[chilly drift]

@heady fable I like the fact to have more diversified buildings, tired of having always the same commercial outpost or abandoned structure

Personally I think they could expand more on that

[heady fable]

yea, diversity is cool and all. I'm just kinda disappointed by the wasted potential :V

[chilly drift]

If you could add something to those buildings what would you think of ?

I think they could add a way to access all archives already known by the player, the possibility to leave a paragraph to let other player to consult it

Also add more props showing specific relic from each races

[heady fable]

like a literal museum of the planet or the system it's located, and you can send mineral and organic samples to help build various displays

might give players a reason to find new minerals since merely scanning them only give you like 200 units

[severe sun]

I've just found fire underwater 😄

#nms-photomode-gallery

How has this issue affected your gameplay?
I can no longer play the game.

[heady fable]

literally unplayable :V

[uncut harness]

was there always 2 points of light? i swear i remember only the one prior to Oranges

[heady fable]

sometimes there are 2 points of light yea

I've seen it before origin

[uncut harness]

were? or are

ok

[idle jay]

It's a lens flare type thing

[vague badge]

Binary galactic centers 👁

[compact coyote]

im really interested in joining the galactic hub

[inland totem]

nothing bad, ever happens to the geks! korvax brain drugs traveler friend?

[heady fable]

not really a drug per se, those tv sets on legs literally rewired their brains with nano machines

I don't like the Korvax. they have no concept of personal space, and do invasive procedures on other sentient lifeforms without consent 🤢

[quasi niche]

I like the Korvax... I just like the Vy'keen more becuse warrior culture.

[real sapphire]

https://youtu.be/jhg8dKlHUiQ

[heady fable]

I just hope we can reinforce the filter on our suits so the Geks can no longer mess with our brains with their fart 🤢

[vague badge]

Artemis>Korvax>Vykeen>Gek

[quasi niche]

I really want a bug-like race to play as.

[real sapphire]

would be better if we have more race tho 🙂

found this beetle

[quasi niche]

See, I can't find any beetles

or butterflies

or anything

I found one beetle since Origins.

[spiral frigate]

I haven't found an animal without an egg sack yet

[compact coyote]

Anyone have a pic of the galactic hub coords? I need them

[hardy flume]

What’s the difference between the story endings?

[mighty rampart]

There's only one end

[hardy flume]

two different choices.

one wipes the system one lets me stay

[mighty rampart]

Even then they end up completing the story in the same manner

[hardy flume]

Do I still get the glyphs before the end?

[mighty rampart]

You just get a choice to move to a different galaxy

Yeah you do

[hardy flume]

Awesome, that’s one thing I was worried about haha!

[silent trench]

it's not really a system wipe you just get moved to a new galaxy and can teleport back to the old one if you want

ofc make sure you set up a base in the new galaxy or you won't be able to go back as easily

[hardy flume]

Thank you guys!

When do you get the glyphs?

[mighty rampart]

Almost at the end of the storyline

[hardy flume]

Okay. So I have the choices to seek the final interface, complete the atlas path, or explore the galaxy now.

Okay nvm I’m good now😂

Thanks again

[quasi niche]

2019: "Can you guys add moth girls?" "No." 2020: "Close enough."

[stable igloo]

they’re so pretty

[pallid stump]

I don't like the Korvax. they have no concept of personal space, and do invasive procedures on other sentient lifeforms without consent 🤢
@heady fable Reminds me of the time I was low on health from fighting a walker and almost died in a settlement because a Korvax shanked me in the face to get a sample of my brain tissue.

[rancid lance]

????

[cloud nacelle]

lmfao

[cloud nacelle]

HAH

[rancid lance]

to reddit it is

[cloud nacelle]

do it lmfao

[rancid lance]

done

when sean said diversity will be twice of that before origins, i didn't think he meant it this way.

[ocean wyvern]

Just like beyond I expect discoveries to be iffy for a while

[rapid wadi]

there be water in my cuboid structure

[distant aurora]

I don't see that, even in the interfaces at water level.

[rapid wadi]

i can try rebooting the game

[ocean wyvern]

Can you swim in that water?

Be a good test if its just a visual glitch

[distant aurora]

My Odyalutai base has a tower of glass cuboids leading up to a circular room above the water level. There's no water interface there. The water is in cubes in a couple volumes under the water level. Most of the base is dry. It may also have something to do with two cubes stacked vertically for a staircase.

[rapid wadi]

I can walk its just a visual glitch

Not gamebreaking but kinda ugly

[ocean wyvern]

Sometimes I think it happens when a base expands from underwater to above water too

[rapid wadi]

I could just have 2 separate bases

The surface platform and the underwater base

But would prefer a seamless transfer if the glitch gods allow ot

[ocean wyvern]

Using a vertical tube with a ladder should make it less noticeable if anything too

[rapid wadi]

Rebooted, both still visual glitched

[real sapphire]

found planet with natural spires

not sure if anyone found a mechanical diplo? XD

[rancid lance]

you mean tallneck

[real sapphire]

😮

i just found a mechanical strider

[lethal jewel]

God I didn't know Void Egg quest is so godawful

[cloud hearth]

Oh? You can get Multi-tool slot upgrades from manufacturing facilities?

[pallid stump]

So my first ice planet of the update turned out to also be my first infested planet.

Was not expecting to find that.

[prime inlet]

@cloud hearth yeah, can confirm

[sand karma]

So my first ice planet of the update turned out to also be my first infested planet.
@pallid stump Nice! I do love the diversity of ice and snow planets now. That was a big gripe. 😄

[prime inlet]

i'm very happy there's frozen worlds now that have no trees at all.

[pallid stump]

I'm more impressed so far by what they did with toxic worlds tbh.

[ocean wyvern]

I like the ice ones with no atmosphere

[pallid stump]

They went from looking like they were composed entirely of boogers and shit to colorful flora all over the place.

[cloud nacelle]

aethena send coords to that

[ocean wyvern]

Will do when I get home

[cloud nacelle]

it reminds of this

alright thanks!

[ocean wyvern]

Cant remove spoiler tags on mobile which is a weird glitch I found today

However

Heres what happened to my fav toxic world Ibuisin

The rainbow is permanent

[cloud nacelle]

death stranding vibes

[ocean wyvern]

It follows where you look

[native mirage]

did you put on a filter? why is it grey

[cloud nacelle]

permanent filter

[ocean wyvern]

Yeah its the natural look of it

The ice planet had some of my favorite not legacy terrain so far

Huge mesas and massive valleys that almost looked like impact craters if you stretched your imagination a bit

Elevation changes were pretty good without having spike type mountains

[rancid lance]

that filter is so depressing

[native mirage]

im just waiting for somebody to find one of the deeper oceans now :0

[rancid lance]

plenty of oceans i saw but i aint gonna take orange fanta ocean or kool aid ocean

[native mirage]

the extra deep ones? Id like to know how many units deep you can go there

[ocean wyvern]

Highest ive found is 60u highest ive seen is Sormac was at 80u

[native mirage]

oh wow

[cloud nacelle]

I really like these new spooky trees, also I love that the sky is more clear now

for some reason my sky used to be really blurry and I had to use that stratos mod to fix that

[native mirage]

so did you remove all your mods yet?

[cloud nacelle]

automatically disabled every update

its that disablemods.txt

[native mirage]

oo neat

[ocean wyvern]

I actually deleted them all

Beyond Fantasy won't be updated again anyway

[native mirage]

with terain being as cool as it is now, what could modders possibly do to make it even better?

[cloud nacelle]

Still a lot obviously

I mean the new update is great!

I love it to bits

but I give it 2-3 months until people start asking for more terrain variation

and obviously modders will jump in

I don't know how they could make it better but I'm willing to be surprised

[native mirage]

terrain wise I would only like to see flowing rivers, such as lava rivers as well

[cloud nacelle]

Oh yes me too!

I remember seeing rivers back in atlas rises

[native mirage]

could do amazing fishing there

[cloud nacelle]

actually wait

NEXT had rivers too

[native mirage]

it does? why can't I find the cool stuff lol

or did they remove it again im confused now

[ocean wyvern]

Already found river type formations

[native mirage]

did they flow tho?

[ocean wyvern]

They never have

[native mirage]

[ocean wyvern]

Also as far as waterfalls when people ask

Its likely related to the fact that the Y axis for down changes relative to position, unlike other games

[cloud nacelle]

Hey asking for waterfalls isn't too farfetched now, they gave us sandworms and volcanoes

so ya never know

[native mirage]

I crave treasures behind waterfalls

[ocean wyvern]

I guess it would depend on how good theyve gotten with the tech

[cloud nacelle]

Also terrain reaches up pretty high now

so they could maybe do waterfalls

and yeah

[native mirage]

I do feel like the recommended specs are getting higher haha

[cloud nacelle]

are they? I feel like the game runs better now than it did with beyond

[native mirage]

there's also people who bumb into frame rate issues since this update tho

[cloud nacelle]

That happens every update unfortunately

[native mirage]

will it be fixed?

[cloud nacelle]

Yeah eventually

[uncut harness]

Fixed an issue that caused framerate stuttering on PC.

Lastest experimental has that fix

[ocean wyvern]

@cloud nacelle that planet you wanted

[cloud nacelle]

hell yeah thanks

[ocean wyvern]

a good reminder to myself to get shots with glyphs since im doing an actual system survey type deal

[mighty rampart]

found a colossal archive building but its not colossal at all, interesting

at least now I know there's not just 2 designs

story was interesting - explaining how the Korvax Convergence works

"its not a hivemind but its also not individuality, somewhere in between" (not sic)

apparently 98% of Korvax who separate from the convergence yearn to be back

[cloud nacelle]

wow

thats interesting

[real sapphire]

Yoo.. flying mushroom cap and tentacles that is ready to smother you (Those tentacles creatures makes me cringe)

[ocean wyvern]

yay found glowy place

[real sapphire]

naise

[timid mist]

Love those

[trim robin]

If you have a jetpack that can get you to the top of one of those archive centers, you can build a base on top of it....😮

[timid mist]

that's cool

I want to find one with a power hotspot nearby and make a little research center

Can use it as a central spot to explore the surroundings and turn in artifacts

[real sapphire]

now i'm more into exploration than doing storyline xD

[cloud nacelle]

the dof looks much better now

well

almost

it blurred out the ships booster trail :<

[real sapphire]

yea ><

i may have put the focal DoF too low or too high

[cloud nacelle]

still

great screenshot!

[real sapphire]

thanks 🙂

[pseudo frost]

my base on a lush planet it gets gloomy during storm but is blue when normal

avatar planet

[hexed spindle]

How do you find archives?

Like the big Boi buildings

[native mirage]

you explore

[hexed spindle]

Is there not a definite way to find them?

Like with maps or something

[native mirage]

not that I know of at least

[mighty rampart]

The previous screenshot looks 3D to me because of the red/blue

[pseudo frost]

which one

[mighty rampart]

Night one that's mostly blue

How do you find archives?
@hexed spindle use the commercial planetary charts, has a chance of finding it

[pseudo frost]

its really pretty

i found 6 lush planets and have put down a base computer on each so that i can go whichever i want lol

now next is they need to make tidally locked moons where its perma nights and stuff

that way the glowy planets will be incredible 24x7

[mighty rampart]

Oh yes nice idea

[hexed spindle]

@mighty rampart ooo thank you!

[mortal grail]

i reset the simulation and now there are 4 orbs infront of me? what does this mean

[compact coyote]

4 types of galaxies

[mortal grail]

which?

[mighty rampart]

green - Eissentam - more lush
blue - Budullangr - more dead
red - Calypso - more extreme weather/aggressive sentinels
yellow - Hilbert - nothing special

[compact coyote]

^

i picked budullangr not knowing it was dead lol

[mortal grail]

Thank you

[mighty rampart]

budullangr is probably even cooler now

oh no wait nvm the old mega exotics are mostly unchanged

just the typical exotics can have variation

[rancid lance]

i kinda prefer a balanced ones like euclid and hilbert, pretty much why i didn't leave euclid at the end

[mighty rampart]

its not like you are stuck in a galaxy anymore, so feel free to make a base at any of these galaxies especially calypso if you want to make an AI farm

[compact coyote]

i have a home planet in budullangr which used to be a beautiful orange grass lush planet with crystaline waters. now after Origins its dark blue grass with a dark sky and there are no leaves on the trees anymore, so basically its now extremely depressing

[rancid lance]

i already have 300+ extractor AI mine set up in euclid

[cedar fog]

y'all I just saw a landed trader, is this new? he's selling stuff like suspicious modules

why are they sooooooo expensive??

752 for a protection module

[mighty rampart]

yes its new

[cedar fog]

seems pretty fun not gonna lie. are they better than S?

[mighty rampart]

they can be

its pure chance

[heady fable]

what? I thought this recipe is retired...

[cedar fog]

oh ew

[mighty rampart]

either worse than C or more than S and anywhere in between

@heady fable magno gold isnt as its part of the trade item crafting

[heady fable]

ah ok, makes sense. Thanks 👍

[mighty rampart]

they removed the compressed minerals like carbon crystal, tetracobalt etc which were part of the first page of the tree

[onyx crow]

So I went to those huge buildings. What is the point of them?

[mighty rampart]

lore, buying components/blueprints, trading any proc gen treasure for another of the same rarity or greater

[ocean wyvern]

wurm

[mighty rampart]

its like they combined minor outposts with trade outposts and added a few more things to it

[heady fable]

there's also a relic reroll machine

[mighty rampart]

there's even the guild guy for whatever reason lol

[heady fable]

stuff a relic in and another one of the same tier or better comes out

[mighty rampart]

I hope they update guilds, its so weird and almost useless at the moment

[onyx crow]

Ok ty

[ocean wyvern]

birdie

[heady fable]

yea, what does the guild guy do besides one time free handouts anyway? :V

[mighty rampart]

that's it

[pseudo frost]

NPC system itselfs needs improvement

hopefully its done in next update

more walking NPCs, NPCS fighting amoing themselves etc

[gritty glen]

Anyone know requirements for weekend mission?

[mighty rampart]

there are no weekend missions

[pseudo frost]

are they over forwever?

[uncut harness]

Weekends have been abolished

[mighty rampart]

New means of earning Quicksilver are coming soon. In the meantime, Quicksilver rewards are still available daily from The Nexuus

[uncut harness]

inb4 the new means are guild-releated

[mighty rampart]

either they're done with weekend missions altogether or they're coming back, it can be interpreted either way

lol I wouldn't mind, I want guilds to have some use again

[gritty glen]

That funny feeling I felt when they took Saturday morning cartoons away. 😔

[cedar fog]

how do I make this black market trader go away?

tryina build a base over here

[mighty rampart]

will leave on its own just like typical NPCs

[cedar fog]

he's been here for like 20 mins haha

maybe if I reload

[pseudo frost]

maybe he wants that nip nip

[cedar fog]

he already sells nipnip haha

a true black market seller sells only the finest items

7 nip nip

[compact coyote]

bruh yeah these criminals keep landing and they stay there like give me some privacy man

[cedar fog]

yep I reloaded and he's gone

how rare are they?

[compact coyote]

i think theyre pretty rare, first time i saw one was yesterday and ive played origins since it came out a few days ago

[mighty rampart]

I've seen them somewhat frequently

I guess its movement based?

[cloud nacelle]

Seen them twice

really bad modules too

not worth it

[uncut harness]

I wonder how good those modules can potentially be

The assistant app doesn't list the ranges, sadly

My best one so far is a hyperdrive one that exactly matches one of my S class upgrades. +238ly and 100% efficiency

Also there are no black market exocraft upgrades, too bad because those are the ones I wanted the most 😦

[cloud hearth]

Like I said, I think they should have worse stats than the S class upgrades

but give you some unique abilities instead

[fair bone]

like what

[cloud hearth]

One idea I had was to give you the storm buffs outside of the storm

but still in a given climate

Hmm

I don't know

I like the idea of them being contraband and illegal

but there should be a reason as to why they are illegal

they should give something outside of the normal, lawfully manufactured ones

[uncut harness]

Maybe one massive buff and one massive debuff

[cloud hearth]

oh!

I love that

The in-game description says that they have been created without having to pass any certifications and regulations

[uncut harness]

Like a laser that overheats really quick, but mines really quick

[fair bone]

thats really jsut a buff

[cloud hearth]

It would be cool if these pirates manufacture these things to get abilities that are forbidden by the regulations

but are manufactured poorly nad thus have a debuff as well

[uncut harness]

or a gun that has very little ammo capacity

Hyperdrive that makes it consume more fuel, not less, stuff like that

[timid mist]

giant moths resting on a magma rock

[native mirage]

Lämp

[timid mist]

very bright lush

[cloud hearth]

I'm so happy that the scorched planets got so much love with Origins

They used to be very boring and they ALL had these giant leaf plants

But now they can have much more variation

I found a scorched planet that had a big forest with really big trees

[timid mist]

very cool

any pics?

[cloud hearth]

I would have to bring out my pendrive to transfer them from the PS4

Maybe I'll post them later

👍

[timid mist]

Sounds good, no pressure though

[gloomy isle]

Is there any procedural variation in the lush mushroom planets?

I've seen some different plants on them but Idk if they're Proc gen or handcrafted

[cloud nacelle]

i would assume its proc gen

[timid mist]

I think pretty much all props are handcrafted, just slight differences in some picked from a pool

[cloud hearth]

^

[timid mist]

but the lush mushroom ones I think mostly vary in color

and like, minor plant/mineral changes

[cloud nacelle]

ahh

[timid mist]

sorta similar to the variety of old biomes

[cloud nacelle]

he meant assets

[gloomy isle]

I saw some different weird plants on a mushroom planet,

I assume there's a few stems and a few different 'heads'

[timid mist]

true, cause I found these on a different one that aren't on the one I just posted

thought the colors of the planet are similar, this one had grey grass in other places while the one before didn't

[cloud hearth]

Oh, we have the same colors on our characters

[timid mist]

which one?

i guess both my saves have similar colors actually lol

[cloud hearth]

Deep orange and dark green

[timid mist]

oh yeah that's my main save from before origins

[gloomy isle]

I saw a radioactive planet with the claw shaped rocks with the animated bit on, which are usually from hot planets. Maybe there's a certain chance of biome specific asset crossover

[timid mist]

the top one is my new one about 12 hours in

and yeah fruity i've seen some exotic props on frozen worlds

[gloomy isle]

That might be it then

[real sapphire]

Can confirm there are plants that was crossover from its original biome

[gloomy isle]

How are you finding the variety BTW @timid mist

[real sapphire]

this planet is lush

[timid mist]

so far I'm loving it

[gloomy isle]

Same

[timid mist]

obviously there are things that are the same but I expect that, and even the terrain and animals are different enough most of the time for it to feel different.

Then I sometimes come across just ridiculously crazy planets and it resets my wow factor lol

[gloomy isle]

Pretty sure the new terrain doesn't work with the same templates as the old terrain

So it's so much more varied

[timid mist]

like this massive craggy infected world with a weird filter

[gloomy isle]

It's an amazing step up

[timid mist]

hard to get a ssense of scale but keep in mind I'm so far away there that none of the assets on the planet had started to load yet

[gloomy isle]

Different mist and cloud levels help too

[pseudo frost]

man these all look modded

and its all vanilla

i would not have believed if you told like a month ago

its vanilla NMS

[gloomy isle]

And they said this is the start of something too

[timid mist]

also this normal lush but with weird glowing tendril plants inserted

[gloomy isle]

That looks cool

My dream planet is a normal lush but with the glowy grass

Hopefully that's possible

And with vapour wave colours lol

But no bubbles

[cloud hearth]

I have seen a normal lush planet with the glowing glass

It was the first Origins planet I explored

It was beautiful

[timid mist]

i think this was my favorite planet so far. Giant mountainous swamp world with mist everywhere.

[gloomy isle]

I do kinda wish the swamp trees had more variation but swamps do look nice

Especially with how muted they are

[cloud hearth]

Swamps are alright I guess

I still haven't seen the volcanoes

[timid mist]

yeah i sorta feel like they will refresh some existing stuff in the future. though even if they don't the game is looking good on variation in general

[gloomy isle]

Definitely. There seems to be more possible variations with it being slightly less defined what spawns where

And I've seen repeated colours yet

[cloud hearth]

Swamps lack variation ironically

They seem similar to the old biomes

[timid mist]

It's mostly the terrain the varies on them

I've found like 3 of them and the terrain has been drastically different for each one

[cloud hearth]

Since they introduced very mountainous terrain I wish they gave us some better way of traversing very steep walls

[real sapphire]

@timid mist dem pre-next feels

[cloud nacelle]

Since they introduced very mountainous terrain I wish they gave us some better way of traversing very steep walls
@cloud hearth grappling hooks

[pseudo frost]

jet packs like in just cause

wing suits*

[mortal grail]

grr i reset and now all my stuff is broken

[slim escarp]

@cloud hearth We need skiing like in Tribes

[uncut harness]

Exocraft can climb pretty much anything

[cloud nacelle]

@cloud hearth We need skiing like in Tribes
@slim escarp damn a tribes homie

hell yeah that skiing thing would be amazing

but we already have that in form of melee jumping 😛

[slim escarp]

Ok snowboarding then

With sick tricks you can pull off

Warframe did it

[timid mist]

i dont want it to get too goofy

[fair bone]

u r comparing two way diff things warframe has custom built shit

[slim escarp]

So?

I'm just sayin lol

[cloud nacelle]

I think he's just talking about movement abilities

snowboarding would be dope

[slim escarp]

It could be like another vehicle but just a personal hoverboard that sits in your inventory or something

And then build a big skatepark base lol

[timid mist]

hoverboard would be one thing, I'd like the rocket boots to take on that functionality actually

like instead of a quick hop you can activate them and they act as hover boots

[fair bone]

yeah a power jump would be cool

[timid mist]

well whether they fix it to stop it from happening or fix it so the collision point doesn't cause major problems are too different things lol

[fair bone]

i think a grappling hook would be awesome

[timid mist]

i am not a fan of grappling hooks in sci fi personally lol

[fair bone]

i love em

[timid mist]

i'd rather just have the boots let you hover and move at normal speed even on inclines

[fair bone]

the grapple arm in subnautica was good

why not both zoid

[timid mist]

fair enough, as long as they wouldn't require the use of it for things. but they rarely do lol

[gloomy isle]

@timid mist just found the tendrils on a poison planet too

[timid mist]

noice

[crisp fern]

hoverboard would be one thing, I'd like the rocket boots to take on that functionality actually
@timid mist why not both? add new hover boots tech

I've gotten to liking the quick hop via rocket boots, but would definitely still like hover boots

[timid mist]

yeah i was mostly just not wanting a grappling hook or a goofy snowboard type thing lol

having like, gauntlet rockets or something so you could boost forwards without upwards propulsion would be cool. Almost like iron man but without being airborne

[subtle gorge]

@crisp fern did they fix the delay issue?

Rocket boots in NEXT used to have a delay

Even when you just used the normal jetpack

[timid mist]

do you men the dip that happens halfway through?

[subtle gorge]

No I mean

[timid mist]

or the initial delay? cause the initial delay is because an animation plays before it triggers

if you're in first person it looks like nothing so seems like a delay

[subtle gorge]

Back in NEXT I vividly remember a delay from when you hit the button to when ANYTHING happened, whether it was normally jumping or using the rocket boots thing

It was a whole half second

Whole reason I stopped using them

[timid mist]

oh yeah i don't remember that at all

[stable igloo]

i get that delay too in origins

makes using the jetpack really awkward

[timid mist]

[sinful saddle]

I recently decided to try the rocket boots again, but I might just uninstall them again

They don't do much and make climbing with a jetpack much more annoying

[mortal grail]

rocket boots?

[sinful saddle]

Rocket boots. Jetpack upgrade that allows you do double press for a boost, but it takes time to happen

Seems to propell you forward a bit more than just a straight up jetpack lift

[stable igloo]

not sure about the actual stats but i think you'd get the same distance for a melee jump

if rocket boots had used another button they would feel a lot better using but im not sure how they could go about doing that

[timid mist]

I liked using them for traversal indoors, but it wasn't worth the tradeoff of losing a slot

[subtle gorge]

yeah it still has a delay

[timid mist]

delay on a normal jump is interesting, i know there's the delay for the rocket jump just because of the animation though

my guess is it's some sort of timer to check if you hit the button twice

[subtle gorge]

press the button, theres a 1 second difference from when you push the button and when anything actually happens

they didn't need to dothat

[timid mist]

im not saying they needed to, just my guess for how it's implemented lol

[tepid iris]

oh yeah

I'd love new exos lik ethe hoverboard

or a chopper 😄

[subtle gorge]

i want the mech to have more of a purpose

[stable igloo]

isnt the mech immune to all hazards

not saying thats a huge deal but its a nice plus

[brave nova]

Hello everyone. So, no weekend missions anymore, huh?

[stable igloo]

not for a bit

"new ways to earn quicksilver will be coming soon" they said

[brave nova]

Cool. Im sad though. Gave me a reason to go in at least every week. Thanks

[stable igloo]

np

[subtle gorge]

i mean, the story "ended" so

[green gate]

:(

250 quicksilver at a time takes way too much time tbh

aspecially on non-founders GFN

[pallid stump]

I just encountered one traveler ghost asking me to move to another galaxy like a salesperson and another that desperately needed plutonium.

[green gate]

lmao what

there's plutonium?

or did you mean platinum

[subtle gorge]

i miss plutonium

plutonium was a resource before NEXT

[pallid stump]

It was plutonium but I had to give him a substitute (condensed carbon).

[subtle gorge]

its been replaced by Condensed Carbon

[pallid stump]

Probably Hello Game making a nod to the past.

[green gate]

huh

neat

imagine of nukes were a thing in nms omg xD

chaos

[pallid stump]

EXTERMINATUS

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Exterminatus For those wondering.

[crisp fern]

press the button, theres a 1 second difference from when you push the button and when anything actually happens
@subtle gorge i think it's because they've never gotten around to implementing the double tap/press rapidly well. Even tho I do like the forward propulsion, getting it to work consistently is finicky, and I suspect the delay is related to that.

Tbh I feel like the Minotaur is basically using rocket boots' functionality but slightly better calibrated, if only because it's not associated with a regular jetpack boost.

[proud gale]

While I feel like this update will keep me playing for much longer, I hope HG will do yet another variety update sometime later now that they can keep the terrain from resetting on discovered planets. There is still some crazy things that only 1.0 could do in terms of terrain, and I wish that height/size of props was more varied.

It would be so cool to have more frequent updates just to terrain generation as that would create so many different planet types

true variety imo

[cloud hearth]

I wish the color palette was even more varied

Imo the colors are very important in making the planets feel unique

[proud gale]

hmmm, I think it is almost as varied as it can be

[compact coyote]

its good that they added more colors than before, even bringing back some 1.0 colors

[proud gale]

there is no way to not end up non-repetitive without going all crazy

like, remember AR? Most of the planets felt like Dr. Seuss

even though they were incredibly varied

Either way, I'm just super happy I can take screenshots that look distinctively unique and original again!

[compact coyote]

agreed !

[cloud hearth]

I like how now the sky colors aren't as rigidly assigned to biomes

eg. scorched planets with blue skies

[mighty rampart]

it existed even before Origins

[copper spear]

I finally am gonna get to play some of origins

In like
5 minutes

Cant wait to see the new world

[mighty rampart]

The Nest biome has whispering eggs

[uncut harness]

Found one of those a couple of hours ago, except it was on a frozen planet and much more dense.

Got spooked because I landed during a storm and I didn't see them until after I got out of the ship

Nms hadn't surprised me in like forever, that was nice

[pallid stump]

If you try going to buildings in that biome, it's basically like an abandoned system; they're functional, but there's nobody there.

Found a trading post with no one sitting around and no ship landed or landing there.

[umbral meadow]

That sounded awesome

[dense acorn]

Is there a chat that talks about the new update or can anyone tell me what all’s new with it. Thank you 🙂

[long gust]

Is there a chat that talks about the new update or can anyone tell me what all’s new with it. Thank you 🙂
@dense acorn check out the patch notes at the official site

[gaunt kettle]

I just found a planet whose type is "planetary anomaly"

All the color seems to have been sucked out

It's very mountainous

And has tomato soup colored water

With red being the only color able to be shown for whatever reason

[waxen estuary]

Came across a random NPC on the planet selling these wares

[uncut harness]

Uh, the UI is bugged

It doesn't show how much is available/how much you're buying

[gaunt kettle]

The fact that it has the prefix suspicious is the interesting thing

[waxen estuary]

they are X class modules.. Basically you are taking a gamble at them being better or possibly worse than your current equipment

Like this.. not exactly sure what it will do though:

[uncut harness]

Is it confirmed that they can be better than S class?

My best black market module perfectly matches my best S class upgrade.

[waxen estuary]

I just bought a whack of them and only found 1 or 2 that made any real difference

[gaunt kettle]

Currently trying to find my long-lost Galaxy

I found a volcanic planet

Apparently Atlas can lay eggs

Found a skeletal Planet whatever that means

[mental raft]

Should I accept the Atlas Path or refuse it?

[uncut harness]

Accept

[mental raft]

Will it lock me out of any content?

[uncut harness]

No

[mental raft]

Dumb question, but you're sure?

[uncut harness]

Yep

If you want to try refusing, create a manual save and reload later.

[mental socket]

I would say refusing will lock you from a tiny bit of content

Unless there is an option to reaccept it later on. I've never done that in my years of play as I always accept it

[tight siren]

lol, I think your question is probably above @molten echo

[molten echo]

You might be right

[tight siren]

Accept the Atlas and follow if for exclusive treats

[molten echo]

Gracias sir

[tight siren]

it all shakes out the same

[subtle gorge]

ok so

do we have a story reason as to why

the living ship design motif is all over the infested planets?

is it in the archives at all

because it clearly was intentional

[violet narwhal]

There's a biome folder called LIVINGSHIP now, which is presumably the infested... So yeah, I'd say definitely intentional, but perhaps not explained anywhere in game.

[ocean wyvern]

Yet

[violet narwhal]

Yeah, the update notes kind of suggest the Origins changes should have some kind of in-universe explanation, so we'll see...

[patent atlas]

Once you find the grave of Artemis, how much storyline is left? The grave spawned in a volcano and I can't get to it.

[severe sun]

Oops

You should be able to reset the quest if you travel far away

[patent atlas]

ahh...... great idea. Thank you

[sinful saddle]

Yeah, the update notes kind of suggest the Origins changes should have some kind of in-universe explanation, so we'll see...
The whole thing with random planets throughout the universe become infested... seems very abyssal to me

[patent atlas]

@severe sun Thank you! That worked. Thought I was going to have to restart from the beginning.

[severe sun]

Happy to help 🙂

[real sapphire]

just curious, does the lighting of planets reflects what type of star(s) is in the system now?

[rancid lance]

i dont think so

ive been to several yelow systems yesterday, their atmosphere color is totally random

[vestal ledge]

infested systems are cool but they're repetitive, nothing really mind-blowing about them

[zinc bough]

Can X-class modules be better than S-class?

[fair bone]

not confirmed fully but some say yes

[low carbon]

I get that in atlas you can make a star at the end

and travel through black holes @jovial stag

It also gives a health upgrade right?

It wont cut me off from the artemis story though right?

[jovial stag]

@low carbon switch to the Artemis quest and once you get to the Purge mission switch back to the Atlas and gather the seeds and you'll be working on both missions at the same time as you have to do 10 warps for Atlas and 16 warps for Artemis, but don't visit the final interface. Then switch back to the Atlas path and then complete it.

[low carbon]

okay I havent gotten to the purge mission I just got the quest to build my personal shield in my gun

from Apollo

ah gotcha

thanks

[jovial stag]

well the purge is mission 9 of the 10 in the quest line

[low carbon]

ahh

[jovial stag]

The Artemis Path Mission Order

Awakenings
Alone Amidst the Stars ||you gain access to the Anomaly||
Ghosts in the Machine
A Leap in the Dark
The First Traveller
Patterns in Time
16 / 16 ||complete this to learn about Dreams of the Deep or reach the Explorer milestone for number of warps completed||
The Purge ||[you get the Glyphs here]||
New Beginnings

[low carbon]

im at a ghost in the machine

but I can do the atlas quest right before completion?

and do artemis till purge then complete atlas then artemis after is what youre saying?

ah I can refuse the atlas

[real sapphire]

Hmm just asking, how do i get those new items? (Magnetic Resonator, Quantum computer etcetc) I saw it somewhere once, but i can't remember

[steel wing]

Learn the blueprints at manufacturing facilities, and some can be bought at the scrap traders on space stations

[real sapphire]

for huge amount of pugneum iirc?

for space station

[steel wing]

Yeah like 5k pugneum

[real sapphire]

ah ok, thanks man 😉

love this update ❤️

[jovial stag]

ah I can refuse the atlas
@low carbon yes I was saying that, and yes if you wish to refuse you can

[low carbon]

ah okay

I think Ill accept it

[jovial stag]

well doing that will put you in Galaxy #2

where getting to the end of the Artemis quest line gives you the choice of galaxies: 2,4,7 and 10

[odd dragon]

After I went to the core. I got thrown out somewhere and got all my techs broken. what the hell just happened.

[jovial stag]

that's normal ... only stuff in the Tech slots is protected from damage ... if you do the jump again do it with a duff multitool selected, a ship with little to no upgrades and move anything important in your suit, such as Star Seed/Remembrance to tech slots and you'll be fine ... it happens everytime you change galaxies via the Core

[odd dragon]

Whooooot

Then I'm not gonna be able to do the main quest then? resetting the system.

[jovial stag]

well if you reset the Atlas in Euclid (Galaxy #1) you end up in #2

[zinc bough]

Just saying, having Defense Chits as a black market item would be cool af.

[odd dragon]

So I'm not gonna be able to go back to #1?

[jovial stag]

yes ... build a base in the galaxy you're in now once you do that visit a station and teleport back to your base in Euclid

then you can go back n forth at will

[odd dragon]

aaaaah. Gotcha. Is there an advantage getting to newer galaxies?

[jovial stag]

well for #10 more chance of lush planets, think #4 is harsh planets

[odd dragon]

I can't use the portals to get to the newer galaxy?

[real sapphire]

Yoo wtf

its an ice planet

[ocean wyvern]

[real sapphire]

not sure anyone seen this, but i think so xD

[ocean wyvern]

Not with the cable things but I also found an ice planet with no atmosphere

[real sapphire]

found one too ytd

🙂

[ocean wyvern]

Frozen is still prolly the least worked on but they still did some things

[real sapphire]

yep

i still seeing same color for ice planet

but i found a green desert world ytd

[ocean wyvern]

I'm not gonna stop landing on ice planets for a while yet just in case

[real sapphire]

i'm spending more time exploring a planet now, even flying

[ocean wyvern]

Same

[real sapphire]

before Origins this was my cycle:
Enter planet > Land > Look around for interesting creatures > If yes - Explore more

If no - Leave

[ocean wyvern]

Well, I should say the same time now as I did with Fantasy and Back to Foundations

[real sapphire]

been a looooong time since i saw barren biome planets

way back from pathfinder update

[ocean wyvern]

Apparently its not true for everyone, but I'm glad I'm not getting swarms of fauna around my ship all the time now

[real sapphire]

haha yea, sometimes i get swarmed by 5 predators xD

also, this planet i am in now seems pretty bright even at night

[mighty rampart]

ooh there's a bunch more food than I thought

"bone milk"

wonder what animal gives that

[real sapphire]

yea, i found dirty meat and lumpy brainstems from a burrowing creature and a rolling creature respectively

[mighty rampart]

dirty meat can be made into soiled soup and earthy pie

[real sapphire]

sounds yucky

[low carbon]

lol

[heady fable]

protein is protein :V

[real sapphire]

infested paradise 👀

extreme sentinels tho 😭

[real sapphire]

@mighty rampart are we in sync? i almost wanted to post this too xD

[mighty rampart]

haha when you mentioned your find I remembered I had to post this

[real sapphire]

xD

tho i would be happy if underwater have the same theme as the surface

special planet with normie ocean does not go along well xD

Flying alien chicken meat

Wow.... Atlas led me to a system with special planets, found the second one on an extreme toxic planet

those plants looks like those in trailer

I'm not sure if they have a thunderstorm planet in mind (not extreme)

i'm pretty sure every patch they release, they will do a small "trial run" for next major patch

[ocean wyvern]

If the rumors are true they started this one quite a while ago, despite releasing all the smaller updates

[real sapphire]

llike?

[ocean wyvern]

Idk I heard 18 months even

But that would put it before Beyond

Course there's "started" and then started

[real sapphire]

i see

well i know one good example is multiplayer. They started experimenting online stuff by introducing online base sharing in pathfinder. And in AR, they started online joint exploration. Then NEXT introduced actual multiplayer

and i believe the experimenting multiplayer for Beyond

Probably testing volcanoes in small scale by introducing hydrothermal vent in Abyss

[ocean wyvern]

Its possible; they seem to be getting better at their engine

[real sapphire]

yea

i'm not sure what they testing for origins, but i think, they are testing weather

or environmental hazards, but i'm not sure tho

3rd planet in this system with new plants

thank you atlas... (teleported me in artemis storyline)

[cloud nacelle]

they are definitely testing weather with this update

who knows we might get flowing lava

and lava planets

[idle jay]

Testing the systems before expanding later on

[cloud nacelle]

or maybe gas giants with lightning everywhere

[real sapphire]

varied climate would be a good thing

[cloud nacelle]

im still not on board with multibiome planets

[real sapphire]

i mean more variety of weather

not multibiome

[cloud nacelle]

ahh

my bad

yeah varied weather would be cool

[pseudo frost]

Seasons would be cool

[cloud nacelle]

actually you know what we need

[real sapphire]

Extreme pressure is one thing i can think of

[cloud nacelle]

that interstellar planet with giant waves

[pseudo frost]

We already have short term weather changes, make it long term and it would be epic

[cloud nacelle]

systems which have a giant black hole instead of a star

oh man those would be wild

🤤

[real sapphire]

whew

destroyed planet?

[low carbon]

Is it worth it to start in a new universe btw?

[real sapphire]

xD but well lets not hope that much yet xD

[cloud nacelle]

yeah haha

@low carbon wdym new universe?

new galaxy?

[low carbon]

Yeah

[pseudo frost]

Blackhole systems would be cool but then the entire system will be cold and dark?

No light means dying system

[cloud nacelle]

not necessarily

dude

[low carbon]

do I have to write spoiler tags in this channel btw?

[cloud nacelle]

blackholes have disks

which have light

[low carbon]

:spoiler: test :spoiler:

[pseudo frost]

No they suck back everything

Even the disks

[cloud nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/interstellar-gargantua-wes-bentley-black-hole-planet-gif-3999850

[pseudo frost]

So the planets will be all night and extremely cold

[cloud nacelle]

what are you on about

thats not how blackholes work you dolt

[pseudo frost]

You dolt wait let me show a video

[low carbon]

So are blackholes like wormholes in the game?

[cloud nacelle]

well they call them blackholes

but they are one way trip worm holes

also for spoiler do this ||

but on both ends of the message

like this

|| test ||

||test||

[low carbon]

So what I was asking earlier was when you complete Atlas || is it worth it to complete artemis and start in a new galaxy? What do players mean when they say you're going to be "lonely" if you do that? ||

[cloud nacelle]

they mean its not as populated as Euclid

so less players

[low carbon]

Ah so euclid is the galaxy?

[cloud nacelle]

also less explored planets

yes

[low carbon]

I cant teleport to players in euclid?

[cloud nacelle]

they're all galaxies

not universes

you can teleport to players in euclid

you can teleport to players in whatever galaxy they are in

[low carbon]

Oh okay, so it isnt lonely at all

its just normal

[cloud nacelle]

yes

[ocean wyvern]

You dont need spoiler tags in the spoiler channel

[cloud nacelle]

No they suck back everything
@pseudo frost no dude they do not suck everything back

at a certain radius they orbit the blackhole

[ocean wyvern]

They dont suck anything

[cloud nacelle]

yes that too

[ocean wyvern]

My research topic was supermassive black holes btw

[pseudo frost]

They orbit but they suck in more energy than they let out, meaning they are not going to be same as a sun

So planets will be colder and receive little energy

[ocean wyvern]

Depending on the direction

[cloud nacelle]

also depends on the distance from the blackhole

[ocean wyvern]

There's a charged particles stream that is "fired" out into different directions relative from the accretion disk; like a pulsar

[pseudo frost]

There was a episode in "how the universe works" where they showed what would happen to earth if our sun became a black hole. The earth starts to become cold and dark and eventually it collapses into the balckhole as its orbit gets closer

[ocean wyvern]

That's what was originally described as a quasar or blazar

[pseudo frost]

Its not on YouTube but it was a good cgi showing what would happen to such systems

[ocean wyvern]

Obviously Earth wouldn't survive it lol

[pseudo frost]

I mean it won't collapse immediately,it will progressively fall into the disk

[ocean wyvern]

Any planet that existed in that system would be formed by that environment

Taking away the Sol system always affects the Earth

[pseudo frost]

But during that time it won't be like it orbited a sun but it was shown as very cold, dead and little to no light

[ocean wyvern]

Its similar to having planets in NMS that don't have moons but have life

[cloud nacelle]

yes it would be cold

but the goldilocks zone would also change

[pseudo frost]

Also oceans would immediately freeze the moment sun collapsed into a black hole

[ocean wyvern]

Just make something extemely imaginative sci-fi and I'm good

[misty cradle]

When the sun will be collapsing to the black hole, there will be no earth probably, since the sun will just inflate and eat earth (it will transfer from main sequence start to red giant) also sun is pretty small, so it can never collapse into black hole @pseudo frost

[ocean wyvern]

I believe the initial idea was just having black hole centric systems in NMS

[pseudo frost]

It was hypothetical if sun were to collapse at current size, even though it didn't meet the size requirements

In the show

[misty cradle]

Oh xd

[pseudo frost]

It was a animation/cgi showing that

[misty cradle]

The show was wrong anyways :/

[pseudo frost]

I mean it didn't meet size but otherwise the effects were correct

[ocean wyvern]

Shows are simplified to explain things to a wider audience

Doesn't make them "wrong"

[misty cradle]

Yes, this is true. But simplified thing tend to be just wrong when you dig into the topic

[pseudo frost]

I mean we so far believed there were no blackholes in a certain size range between small and supermassive, but last month we found Blackholes in the impossible size range

[ocean wyvern]

You can't use astronomy talk on a TV show people would be blank out

[pseudo frost]

And people are trying to rewrite the theory to fit the observations

[ocean wyvern]

That being said this is going in a more #off-topic-bond-james-bond direction and not really a nms spoiler anymore

[real sapphire]

wait what, now then i noticed that planet's info is more detailed now

as it atmosphere, core elements etcetc

"Toxic Horror"

[real sapphire]

saw a sandworm jumping from one spot to another

Is there anything worthwhile at the end of the quests? I really don’t want to spend ages just clicking through dialogue boxes running from point a to point b

[cloud nacelle]

no

the only reason to do the quests is if you want to get some things and if you really like the lore and the story

unless you mean those quests in the anomaly

[prime inlet]

just look it up on the wiki, if you need more details i guess. atlas path rewards star seed exosuit tech + the ability to see star systems with a black hole marked on the galaxy map; the artemis path unlocks remembrance exosuit tech, and allows a player (once per save) to move galaxies at the end.

found a planet labelled "boiling doom", solanium and phosphorous listed as expected

what I was not expecting was it to be another nest planet with a boundary failure and vintage filter

man they really hit the park with variety, it feels awesome not knowing what to expect

[prime inlet]

agreed

i'm walking a lot more.

[mighty rampart]

so I guess the nest planets count as anomalous for boundary failures to spawn

it even had that typical background music

[strong bluff]

If you mean whispering egg ones, I though that they are only dead ones and infested ones.

[mighty rampart]

well yeah these also have whispering eggs

[strong bluff]

I had one corrupted planet, but it looked like normal one, with huge mushrooms, but aside of saying 10 animal life forms, almost none spawned. And it was playing Exotic planet music.

[mighty rampart]

but yeah this is a pretty mixed biome planet, not purely anomalous/weird and not purely hot biome

the huge mushroom ones have been in the game before but they would never have any hazard aside from superheated storms

[strong bluff]

Yep.

[mighty rampart]

basically behaving like lush planets

[strong bluff]

Or getting stuck in the huge mushroom.

Though they weren't called as corrupted planets. 🤔

[mighty rampart]

now they incorporated those mega exotic assets into main biome planets which is awesome

[covert wing]

mixed biomes ❤️

[strong bluff]

Now only rivers remain.

[mighty rampart]

rivers kind of exist but yes there's no elevation to water

[mighty rampart]

found a land turtle that had the same glow colours as some of the nest biome flora

[tepid iris]

nice

[mental raft]

I just wish we had more cybernetic stuff.

[mighty rampart]

soon?

they did add robo animals

[mental raft]

IE, alot of the planets look like Dune, but there's rarely anything that looks like Transformers.

Or Wipeout.

[real sapphire]

Artifical worlds?

:3

[native mirage]

we're going up slowly but steadily

[mighty rampart]

hoping the numbers remain high in general

[native mirage]

we just need a combat overhaul, both on the ground and in space ramping up the difficulty in general

after that anything past that is just improving already great mechanics or neat niche features, combat honestly needs some love first

[cloud nacelle]

in what way could they overhaul combat?

[native mirage]

give multitools more of an impact, and make fights not just lazering a stationary enemy with 20 hp

[pseudo frost]

Makes NPCs walk around and do stuff, allow NPCs to scan on planets, allow them to warp to different systems , attack other NPC settlements etc

[uncut harness]

Nerf the hell out of shield upgrades too

[pseudo frost]

And then we can be part of that as a player and that will be combat

[uncut harness]

they are waaaaay too op

[pseudo frost]

Gek vs vykeen fights

[copper spear]

I personally want a space upgrade
With large asteroids, more explorable space intereferences, space conditions like solar flares, distruptions or stuff like this-

[native mirage]

Combat also covers harder derelicts, perhaps tower defence on some planets, better fleet battles with multiplayer and pirates

[copper spear]

Oh and an automation system for basebuilding with crafting machine that can automate the fabrication of advanced products!

[pseudo frost]

I think AI should be improved, all games are now improving the NPC AI, so would be a good time to do that

[copper spear]

Maybe even have like teleporters that can teleport items from base to base so you can have collector bases all over the galaxy sending products to a huge factory

[pseudo frost]

So like satisfactory?

[copper spear]

So ya can get yerself those tasty stasis devices

[native mirage]

maybe even add melee weapons

[pseudo frost]

Time to port satisfactory to NMS

[copper spear]

Not like satisfactory, just basic factory with collectors and crafters using the item conduits we already have
