I don't see much issue with them personally
I got a good reason to not really be hyped
FOMO
But I understand people who do
maybe its better to add nothing than add just cosmetic?
I always think expedition time is fun
Honestly I think they are boring but the rewards make the few hours of boring worth it
because like people expected crazy shit with a whale and its like the usual machine
Only thing that kinda bothered me was the explorers guild mission at the end of expedition 5 but honestly it wasn't dramatically bad.
If it's just an expedition it means they work their a**es of for the v 4.0
After this update there should be a update with more stuff
I find a bit of dumb fun figuring out how to do stuff as efficiently as possible
You guys need to shut up about expeditions lol. They're here to stay and it seems majority likes them.
And by that I mean I've played the game too long
I like them
Nobody said to take them out
At least i didnt
we had this situation in 2021
Neither do i
emergence released it was the last update of the year people were like meh
because it updated sandworms a bit
Expeditions are fun if you know what you're doing
u could have ur own sandworm that cool yes
I'd argue expeditions was probably the best update last year that actually added depth to the game where most of it was just filler. At least expeditions give you purpose to play in my opinion.
same!!
like, its a big sandbox game, with tons of different mechanics, features, and ways of playing..
if you dont like expeditions, just play the way you enjoy playing the game, cosemtic stuff, that you can easily save edit in if you dont want to do the expedition, is nothing to get upset over
its like if when minecraft added the wither, people complained because the game isnt about fighting.. just.. play the game the way you enjoy playing it, thats the wonder of sandbox games
@blazing river look who there the OG 😉
Like im fairly pro expedition but I feel like people who have issues with them are valid and we should have these discussions
hiii Jordan
"Just save edit lol"
Bruh
MADI!!
Consoles
Save edit?
would like to see more than one pet at a time
laughs in Consumerism
Oh
you can modify your save with a program and give yourself things and unlock the expedition stuff
go to the anomaly
problem solved
Thats stupid
Has anyone checked the water shader?
at my base tho 🙂
its the same
finally this captain steve is going to a planet with water
Who would save edit that makes the game boring
It's just another expedition, as I predicted. This hype cycle is what happens when HG doesn't directly communicate to us what's coming 🤔
Unless ur doing experiment
it's not stupid if it works
many people use save editor
do u call those stupid because they edit it?
nah it's when people don't extrapolate from previous experiences
because people use mods to unlock expeditions rewards
how do you know? they havent dropped the patch notes yet
remember when prisms where everyone jumped the gun at assuming what changed, and the patch notes proved em wrong?
There's a lot of us who straight up can't save edit either
Yes
Previous experiences?
is it stupid? no because it gives them more content
I do think for the future they should at least outline whats content updates and whats expedition only updates so people don't get super hyped. However we don't have full patch notes so we aren't even sure if there is anything else that's small.
It's not HG that creates the hype... It's us that create it...
soo having the freedom to fascinate ur save how u want in a sandbox game is stupid
previous big updates came out on tuesdays whereas the last few smaller ones and expeditions came out on weds. Also small stuff don't get teased as long
I love hyping, we are getting free updates all the time
that kinda like saying hey i wanna build a big ass build in minecraft but i need to do it by hand and not on a seperate aplication that can help me
Learn to relax and enjoy new stuff
builders miss build parts, that's a problem
Sean was consistent in this regard
I don’t fascinate, I just do
people never learn
Appreciate what you get, not what you don't have
what gleam said
100% agree with you Gleam
maaan some things never do change do they
Nms is a miracle in gaming , a fruit of labor and love
These Devs work for hundreds of hours to push out content for free, and then I see people complaining. It's pretty childish.
i guess its because we demand
Embrace them instead
soo we need to have it
like, they are not required to give us updates, we are not entitled to updates.. they give us updates because they are passionate about it
some updates will always be better than others.. and once again, we dont know what even changes in an update until patch notes drop
It’s only been a month since last update
I personally think Sean looks at the hype/speculation and writes down notes for future updates lol.
We’re being spoiled
@sullen shadow for some its already too much
and i think this train of each update being a content update in people eyes is bad
When HG doesn't tell us anything, we tend to make our own speculation. For example, there's been no news on the Switch release since February's Nintendo Direct, which is why people are still worrying whether the Switch version will perform well.
I appreciate the incredible work and passion of HG, but I find their lack of communication fairly frustrating when it comes to updates/new releases.
because once an update isnt a content update but more and expedition./fixes update
people will feel like they been cheated on like why do u this ?
why its not a content update and this and that etc
Lord where are those patch notes
What do you mean? Like overwhelming?
we dont even have the patch notes yet.. so far, nearly every expedition has included some changes.. even emergence, includes various changes
you guys are, really jumping the gun on assumptions
no
for them a month isnt enough
people get bored fast
Anyone fill me in on what happened?
Mostly expedition update as far as we can tell
im not jumping on assumptions im happy we have a fix u know
Oh, maybe it’s because people hop on to play with the new additions. And then stop playing
the more the better
So far only living frigate has been discovered in the update and new expedition.
I wish they would put out more but like gleam said the devs work very hard for hundreds of hours I at least appreciate that they are updating the game.
Oof
I mean yeah the team's still very very small
yes but i feel like the problem is people expect TOO much in too little time
the fact it's gotten to this point
u cant have a freaking overhaul of combat and a overhaul of water in like a month after
In the olden days you got info from a third party magazine once a month
jumping to assumptions on what is/is not included before they even drop the patch notes, is someone reusing a microwave box for a bunch of christmas gifts, and the person looking at the box and going i didnt want a microwave!
Starting to feel like it's just a frigate then
Hi, this is the #nms-spoilers channel, let's get back to spoilers please
AND YOU LIKED IT
Remember when normandy dropped
Im just grateful we have gotten so so much content
Huge patch
oh boi
I will donate 90,000 activated indium to hello games
i would post the "sean confirms all speculation" vid but hhhhh
Maybe we are getting the expedition today
I understand what you are trying to say but not communicating doesn't mean that things will go wrong...
:0

Space whale 😮
Expedition?
WHALE
Space whale
The cloak is more worth than the frigate tbh
damn HG is fast
Eww. So that update tease was just the expedition? Thank god I didn’t get too hyped
I see a bit of time and infinity ♾ theme in the rewards ….
Not me, I only speculate in jest.
Im fine waiting.
I think we'd all appreciate at least a little information on our concerns with the Switch version 🤔
We haven't seen the notes yet
we dont know yet, we wont know fully what is/is not until the patch notes drop
thats whats leaked, the ps5 update file was kinda large if i remember correctly so might be additional unleaked content
It's not expected for a bit is it? My memory says late summer.
Consoles are just inefficient at patching
@severe sun it feels weird seeing u in yellow
Is 10GB update normal for an expedition?
I just checked, soulja was added to the game
Update size isn't really meaningful
100°C sustained, 5 fps
Someone said ps4 update was 14gb
Feels good
(probably not)
Sooo... There will be whales???
Space whales.
Ong?
It can mean anywhere between July and early September, and that's if there's not been any problems which delay the game 🤔
: (
If ps5 is 10 and ps4 is 14 then to me that says 10gb of 14 got updated
Or something
😆
no way, do they also adds kanye west to the game?? 😮
I dunno im not a mathematician
Yay! Whales! WHALE
How can people be disappointed when hg doesn't meet the expectations that they set just because of what they wanted
Because I'm pretty sure ps5 patching/packaging isn't all-or-nothing like ps4 is
If they've not added a pot of petunias as an in game item too I'm going to delete the game.
Lol are you new here
(He said, jokingly)
im hungry
Ok
gonna go make a snack
At least you realised
because people asked for it
Dont
soo they should receive
that fucking dumb i guess
heres hoping the patch notes drop before im back
Pls spoil me with screenshots too, I've got an afternoon full of meetings so can't play

There's a reason game studios barely announce anything anymote
It's to avoid this happening
patch notes will be around 8 AM
I'm talking about the industry as a whole
I literally heard about the game like the day it launched. I had zero expectations and I've always liked it
thats usually when steam gets the update and xbox
bit its already 8:19am
Steam just got the update guys
this is true
With how things are going, soon people will complain that they need the patch notes now
I dont see it on steamdb
I just wish they'd dedicate some time to fixing bugs with the game. And not just the new ones that come with whatever expedition they happen to put out.
This is #nms-spoilers and I'm not seeing any
Even if studios don't overpromise people will always overexpect
But Sean has come out to speak about updates before. It's a tactic that worked when the game flopped on release, but not when the game has delivered on so much 6-years later
Bout to be mutes
Ig there are none
Spoilers anyone?
Then there doesn't need to be chat here
True
pretty beefy patch, ngl
Nice
Decides to be a rebel and steps forward “No”
Steamdb must not have refreshed
Yoooo did something drop?
Our concerns are based on comparing the Switch to the PS4 which is a very bad comparison since both consoles run on different architectures. Still I know that Switch is not the most powerful device on earth but I do believe that you will get a playable game given the size and power of the Switch.
Btw the steam servers were super janky today so maybe patch couldnt make it thru steam in time?
8GB of pure update
Like steam servers actually went offline
steam always gets the u[date last
so far we know about: leviathan expedition plus rewards. organic frigate that can accompany a regular frigate fleet. maybe some water related things (tbd)
first PS, then xbox, then lastly steam
Nah, I thought PS got it last
Either ways
Seems like that tidal planet stuff was bs
Someone please tell me what this is about
ps4/5 and steam have it now, xbox and gog still waiting.
Guys y’all are making gleam angery
Same
now that its pushed to Steam, the patch notes should be any minute
I've seen no tweets, no news from HG
But maybe as part of the expedition? Similar to the hives>
What hives?
unclear, someone with the update needs to check water worlds (several) and find out if there's any visual changes or weather changes
I hope the new features stay after the expedition. I wouldn’t have minded if 2% of planets had the baby sand worms
or we could just wait for the patch notes 😄
My indium farm is on one but I can check in 11 hours
The hives from Emergence, I wonder if tidal planets are like that
i really enjoyed fighting the baby sandworms tbh.. would love if they brought them back
it's ok to co-opt a planetary system or few for an expedition, if nothing there ever discovered. doing that across the galaxies in procgen is another matter entirely. but let's see
I have a wild theory…. What if the time theme of the cosmetics means (don’t take this seriously) that, we can go back to pre-next planets with a time warp
go look at the qs shop if you've got the update
Theyre in the quicksilver shop
a banner, am organic frigate base decoration, a poster, some other things
I'm in the bus
of course you are 😄
are the wheels going round and round?
pog
they move in our hearts
Temporal…. Time splice,…
Living frigate is cool and all but when is the BBQ update
Please please be more than just lore about time travel
It’s real
it is
burh
Polos barbecue and foot massage
If its just another goddamn frigate, its cool, but like, why ANOTHER ONE
That’s real
100%
?!?
Thats whale juice !
Nah
i want them to make the water look better
Don’t expedition rewards leak early
yep seems like it, maybe some bugfixes along with it
Damn
Venom is the only thing new
New expedition and organic frigates so far then? :3
Venom
well
Looks like just one organic frigate, like the Normandy
they pushed the update, but the expedition isnt avaliable yet.. so there are definitely changes, we just dont know what until #patchnotes
Sony - Hello games colab to add venom as a skin
Venom
Ah right, well would still be pretty nice to have tbh 😄
Yup 🙂
It does look pretty cool in the screenshot ^_^
Nah
probably some minor changes like they did to some particles in the Emergence
Leviathans are well established in Sci Fi as giant organic ships
e.g. Farscape's Moya
Lexx
So theres a lotta time travel themes
The rewards are mostly hinting at subject in time travel
Looper,hour glasses,infinity symbol
Well that's a flow animation
Venom
Been in the game since day 1
Has that actually been animated lol
16,16,16
Never noticed it
This update is prob mostly expedition
Well you know what they say
whales + time travel = star trek 4
Sometimes it takes 400 hours to notice a tiny detail in one of your favorite space games lol
Totally is
its out on pc
Last update wasn’t even that long ago
update out on pc
Setting my expectations to "new Expedition and maybe stuff people haven't been able to notice in 10 minutes" 😄
wheres the patch note
my update finished, and i saved on an ocean world.. time to take a look
let us know if theres whales
Tell us if you find Venom in the ocean
what's news !
nothing has changed
I went to one of my bases with water it has not been updated at all.
inb4 skywhales
Probably just an expedition with maybe some minor change like emergence
u cant do always update content every month
Major update is switch launch
NMS devs know how much we would love an ocean update, so they trolled us with a Whale expedition 🐋
No Man’s Lie
there a moment where u dont develop fast enough
naah, but this is a pattern here.. update launches, patchnotes havent been released yet.. and people assume if they cant see it within the first 5 minutes of booting up the game, nothings changed
I feel like switch launch will be another planet update
xbox hasn't updated
no changes to the water texture or anything
that would be cool !
It’s an expedition uodate mostly
living freighter as a reward for expedition.
Well, thanks for setting my expectations guys. Do really like the way the frigate looks, and new Expeditions are always welcome. Plus, maybe there'll be some surprises. 😄
Frigate, right?
:(
I wonder if we can find pods of these space whales just out and about
nah, new stuff is usually found out in the first few minutes of release as tons of player are looking around
Frigate
although.. the water level seems to be slightly lower..?
That'd be pretty amazing I think
I want the new cape NOW
frigate yes
That would already be good imo. The water level has always been oddly elevated beyond where it looks like it should be visually. 😛
I didn’t do last expedition
Didn’t feel cape was worth it
I assume they will do a recap end of this year
Like they did last year
so what we know so far: leviathan expedition, organic frigate, base decoration of a living frigate, posters, decal, banner.
Wasn't that only because of covid?
So you can replay all
will we get a living freighter one day?
Ive done the last 2 in a do this one cause I want baby whale the cool trail and posters and the cape
You (probably): NO CAPES! 👀
@muted moth and cape
Sorry Edna
Living freighter would be nasty
@polar ember hes cute shush
I wanna wander around a giant space creatures intestines 😤
He baby
and cape, indeed!
this year it'll be monkey pox or small pox
Lol
And starship trail
True
Living ship, living freighter, living frigates, living anomaly, living space station, living capes, living backpack, what else?
Living Planet
It was so we get content while they're away on holidays
Living planet
living base living
Living base
Living gravitino balls
Living friends
Living nipnip
Living sentinels
should just put the items in QS Shop after the next expedition releases
Not everything needs to be living
What's new guys
Living Phrog
Living.
Living Sean
You can orbital strike
Check your nickname maybe
name dont check out
LIVING
What is the new update
LIVING ROOM
ohh
you can move the freighter
News.
I am in my living room right now
living base parts, would be pretty neat
Anyways
News?
you can battle pirate freighters
whats the update about?
This is the spoiler chat
Sean murray added to the game???
whats new
Living Traveller
For discussing spoilers
in before this is a paid dlc update 😄
Not random concepts
Frieghter update
No, but I heard Soulja boy was added
:D
You can move the freighter
Yes, orbital strike, controlling the entire freighter, battling other freighters, customizing it
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
"Living" frigate reward from the new Expedition and otherwise mostly a lot of unsubstantiated stuff in here. 😄
checking another streamer going live now, let's see if we get any new news besides the qs items
ALL I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS
No way, you are lying
Can we get some proof there? 😄
😦
wait ORBITAL STRIKES?
living frigate
So this is real
It’s just an expedition
scrap it, im just gonna wait till the trailer is out
no I read an older reddit post, I apologise
Oh
right now the only thing we know is: leviathan expedition, 2 posters, organic frigate for fleet, organic frigate decoration for base, cape, decal, banner
10gig expedition??
That's a nice argument, Senator. Why don't you back it up with a source?
Real info
Please just
Reddit never lies
Omfg 🤣😭
This ☝️
Only, an EXPIDITION
Only talk about actual spoilers
okay i can’t tell what’s speculation and what’s fact
Yes
xbox isn't updating yet
Expedition
And not random reddit posts you saw
There’s a new starship trail
That’s all that seems known
no, the update has 7 gigabites
Checked the website, nothing is posted yet
e x p e d i t i o n
ah yes, a new trail as well
E
E
it would make no sense for just an exp
Exactly
There's a living frigate
link?
They’re trolling
That means a ton of assets
Expedite my ass over to HG to ask why an expedition is 10 gigs!
I mean space whales have been often requested, so a frigate that's like that would be enough to make a splash over tbh.
I've been watching live sstreams of folks visiting the qs shop and looking at new added items
best thing for me in update the whale pet in expedition around base ❤️
but they would be more likely to roll that out alongside the expedition, not in advance of it
Qs shop?
quicksilve shop
@icy citrus pin message about consoles update size please
When will it drop on Xbox though
rolling out a nearly 8GB update today, that only includes assets for an expedition next week, wouldnt make much sense
I saw a content creator testing it on PS5. Nothing new yet
File size says very little tbh. Could even be already adding things in for the summer update that aren't being used yet :3
All the assets and rewards for an expedition roll out a few hours before it in a patch
Who said it's next week lol
I don't see anything new in here. Nothing on the anomaly, nothing in the water, nothing on my freighter.
Consoles update differently than PCs and will always have a larger file size.
pc only 7 GB
well the website or the youtube isn't updated
So only an expidition
I'm just really hoping for wild space whales too
Major update is switch
lets check twitch
Which isn’t even that far
^ and last gen consoles especially which have worse compression will have even bigger file sizes than next gen
7GB is still not small number
PC filesize is a little closer to 8GB
Hopefully more
;p
When will we know if there is more
NMS on my ps5 is only 13.03 gigs all together. So a 10gig update is pretty big
This game is like only 13GB total
There might still be bugfixes and/or small things people haven't found yet. We'll see when the patch notes drop.
soon
Soon
NOOOOO
What
i cant share pic yet here xD
geforce now hasn’t updated the game
That could also just mean you re-downloaded a big chunk of the game, for example for optimization purposes. In general on consoles, you tend to redownload a lot because of how those branches are structured.
Mine is 7.01 too
Let’s hope they fix cape physics
👀
Patch note out?
No
What is the main reward
The Frigate prob
Halo ship
The frigate I presume
Literally halo
main reward is an organic frigate.. like the normandy
Then where is the name from
@tulip ledge organic frigate
Its a calf, not a frigate itself
hectic noises
Then will there be a living freighter
did they tweak how long the living ship quest is
Expedition 7 will be called the Leviathan Expedition, one of the decoration rewards mentions Cosmic Leviathans so we are looking at space whales, called it.
Maybe it's a Subnautica tie in
Is this the speculation channel or the spoiler channel
hxxps://xxx.twitch.tv/xainesworld
Subnautica has whales in space?
Are the patch notes in yet
organic frigade'
Had leviathans. Smart space ones
patch notes when Sean gets bored of watching us all try and figure out whats changed xD
Well leviathan is a fairly generic and commonly used name tbf.
I finish work in an hour, so if there is anything new plz send me a DM or tag me.
ITS NOT BECAUSE THERE IS THE WORD LEVIATHAN MENTIONNED IN BOTH GAMES THAT THEY ARE RELATED
he is showing it well, maybewe can get patchie notes
Just dreaming of making a sea truck. Subnautica is in my top 5 games
leviathan has been a word since at least the ancient greeks
it just means large sea creature
NMS!
YES EXACTLY
@uncut harness like the worm?
Probably got Leviathan from a prehistoric whale not spelled the same but a little similar
it's a living frigate
so whats in the update
The prehistoric whale gets it from the word leviathan or a similar route I'd imagine
And maybe a living freighter that you can get
Since they didn't name themselves
If we would that likely would've been the expedition reward, rather than the frigate
So I gotta go I will check up later, see y'all soon
So wait is the only major thing expedition 7?
As far as we can tell right now, yes
we dont know yet, waiting on patch notes
Really thought they would add better water shaders
frigate is more like a gold fish. Freighter would be a whale. I'm a little disappointed
The frigates in this game are enormous as well tbf
But it don't do shit really
It just looks
And gives minor day long rewards
I need an old person keyboard for this freaking phone
I appreciate any content they give cause they could've made people pay and or give up years ago
so there's a new expedition, but it also might be an update?
Free content is something people shouldn't complain about
That's just what you expected
the update has 7 gigabites, its a bit too big for an expedition i guess
It's the frigate assets
we wont know until the patch notes drop
File size is not really a good gauge of content in an update
that baby living frigate will be a great addition to the base
Frontiers for example was much bigger than some earlier updates that you might consider way more impactful to gameplay
Filesize is just the raw amount of code and files that had to be added
if its just an expedition im alt f4ing my life..
Leviathan 👍
Its strange how Sean hasn't been active yet though.
Hg is not obligated to meet the expectations you set for yourself
Seems like Xbox players are just redownloading the game, which is fairly common 😄
you can't fly frigates though can you? So you'll just see it flying around your freighter?
🙃
thanks
my pc says that the update is 12gb bruh
Two part update 😳
My PC said 7GB
Update sized may vary between platforms
im doing it through microsoft so it could be different
Weird I got like 8.5 gb on my pc
Well I updated and the new expeditions is Here.. Looks nice
if it's just an expedition
i will be happy with that because at least the hg team is putting effort into their stuff and releasing it free to the community
Is this for real?
not out for me yet
@craggy plover I only got 1 15 GB update
we're getting close to 4.0
A new expedition so soon is sick
I wonder if Sean accidentally pushed the wrong build. That'd be wishful thinking though.
13gb on xbox? Gonna take me like 4 minutes to download that
👀
I only got ps4 version after downloading first one and restarting my console
That's the ps4 version, you probably installed it on the ps5 version before
maybe they didn't bundle the expedition and regular content together? released them both individually
lol
That's how it works when you have multiple generations of a game
Two ps4 one ps5
You have to update both
Downloading it rn, 24 minutes to go ooowiieee
You never mentioned that before
I downloaded ps5 and ps4 update. Restarted console. Came back. Another ps4
Version started
It's still 3.90
Whalestalker Cloack.. I like how it's sounds
Let's see if Steam Internal gets another update push
It's says it's a permadeath expedition
new expedition out
I've already been through hell with the past ones, im not doing this
@craggy plover hmm?? What version does it say??
Seeing that now as well
UI_EXPED7_DETAIL_DESCYou have awoken. It is a new day. It is time to face the loop once more.!NEWLINE!!NEWLINE!This is a <FUEL>permadeath< expedition, but key elements <STELLAR>persist between loops<
Posted by Captain Steve
Sounds cool
hello
New trail, and I'm not joking:
It uses refraction around the engines
thats fire tho
That is a glorious trail!
he certainly isn't, thats a new trail
I looked in main menu when I started the expedition
permadeath expedition?
And I died,
Lmao
That's neat!
I mean, people who aren't used to survival and perma aren't used to the speed that hazard protection drops at
It's easy to die
almost downloaded on Steam, see if i can find anything else
mostly due to bugs
in perma and survival, if you aren't used to how fast hazard drops, you don't need bugs
It is on ps4
feels like outlaws was just yesterday man this is crazy
true
Wonder where the trailers at
People on YouTube are saying it's out as well
I don't play much permadeath
Oh yes it is out 😄
if it really is permadeath, this expedition gonna be hell
6 weeks
Sean tweeted
agreed
oh wow i have a pet named butterdog iirc
Use medal
Pro
Oh no
oh my
I've never played permadeath
same
ok
Deathloop Expedition
Never played permadeath either, so this is bound to be fun 😛
Expedition is live now
hahahaha
ok they still didnt fix solars aerial layout for others ships
Tbh I don’t get why they would make something and call it a frigate despite it just being a base decoration
It's like multyple ships from different players spawned in the same zone
It's both. There's a frigate AND a base decoration.
lets do the time warp again..?
Yeah permadeath should be fun
Is the decoration animated?
Yeah the base decoration is a baby
best to turn off pvp and player edit your base
Yeah
Did we get patch notes yet?
He’s does that
bruh doesa that mean we dont get an update or what
Unknown. It's an Expedition reward, which people won't have yet, but previous ones generally were.
those functions suck if you are a peaceful guy
Not yet, he's Monologuing first
if its just an expidtion then thats a really big update
😩
The big bad evil guy monologues before he does his thing
he does that sometimes
oh ok facts
I feel like we need to teach Gunther to mention that file size means nothing and that it might be inconsistent between platforms. 😄
Rn I’m playing, and it sorta seems ray tracing has been improved a bit but I’m not 100%
So whats the theme of the expedition
thats good to hear
One of the things is to die
Aliens
yeah its permadeath
Size doesn't matter eh?
Permadeaths and space whales it seems 😛
Can we ping sean murray here?
On permadeath
i wish
Permadeath? Ooh
I..
@prisma vigil
How you use it. NMS file size in general is very small compared to much content is in the game.
Oi Oi I was joking
@cloud jolt
Don't do it, you might get kicked
I probably won't be able to play it for a while, I got a job interview today
OI OI OI dont do it
Deathloop and Flying Whales - It's an Arkane Update
"he starts monol-" "HE STARTS MONOLOGUING"
This Expedition is really fast after the previous one though. Very impressive.
- monowhaling
Good luck 🤞🤞

my update is half done 😩
"this is a permadeath expedition, but key elements persist between loops."
new tweet
So the new expedition play very carful I guess
Mmm he is hyping this up so maybe this is a big update?
there happens to be many stupid random ways to die
Would be great if you need to die some to complete the expedition
It's an Expedition is all we've found so far.
like a frigate glitching through the ground and sending you flying
probably hyping up for the summer update a bit
i just died and my game crashed
lol yes
maybe he will tease the next big update, like with beyond
fall damage and bugs are my greatest enemy
he always does this
not always, but frequently
The last time he hyped, Elon Musk looked forward to watching NMS. Remember?
sometimes he will just drop patch notes, but especially around the summer, he will go on these monologs
So I wonder how big this will be
Whale sized update
Remember the " can we build a home on an Asteroid? Yes ! "
space race gates when?
Well I should say
Drop patch notes bruh
You have to Die
God the engoodening of NMS is a glorious video
For once
ttyl boys
any news what the update is about?
going for shower
It's a quest
It's a perma death, timeloop expedition with a living frigate reward
Update is organic frieghter expedition
To recieve the most important part you have to Die, 😂
interesting
Time loop reality warp stuff is really getting slept on
So don't try to advance in the game
"timeloop" yeah so you respawn
Everyone's only interested in whales lol
Mine is my affection towards the geology cannon
And get some of your items back with a new technology thing
Not a regular respawn
... you start with a freighter?!
Tbh I think the whale was a thing to throw us off
new tweet
kind of kill the whole permadeath thing 💀
The reward is a space whale frigate
Maybe living freighters are in the game
We wouldn't know yet
Not for sure anyway
It all implies that you're meant to die in this expedition
Which I think is exciting
Oh I thought it was just like a living ship but big and also a frigate
the griefing for players forgetting to turn off pvp will be insane for this expedition i reckon
Do I actually die to do ghd iteration/ repeat
Yes
Its permadeath tho
You have to start again
he did it for Outlaws
i dont get what whales has to do with the update but ok..
Is this confirmed information or just a guess
living frigate = 🐋 ?
🐳
I already play
And can confirm it's true
Confirmed, it's already live
Ah ok
whales, in ancient times, were occassionally referred to as leviathans.. because leviathan just means large sea creature
Space whale, yes
It sorta is really. The calf base companion especially looks similar to living ships
Same species like
not exactly a whale but ok..
Subnautica PTSD intensifies
So you can enter most frigates after you buy them in game, I don’t want to imagine how that would work for the living one
They need their own design of it because lots of versions of this have been copyrighted, but it definitely is the space whale idea 😛
Living Ships have been dubbed Space Whales since the living ship update
This expedition has neat mechanics
Space Whales are often not very whale like in lots of media
Just means something huge and generally gentle
will a trailer come if it's "just" an expedition?
That flies through the void
It is
Oh it has optional miltestones too? Hmm...
It’s an expedition with mostly bug fixes is my guess
They did it for the Mass Effect and Dune ones 😄
I wonder if we're gonna get a teaser for the anniversary update.
That would be nice
Permadeath expedition? Never done permadeath before. This is going to be a pain 😩
@eternal radish it's not
Do have to dive back into things, but at first glance this does look like its one of the more unique expeditions
Doesn't seem like true permadeath though. It has time loop elements
They help with a lot of things
its !!!FUN!!!
You get some of your items back upon dying etc. So it's not a full reset.
The dying is part of the Expedition basically. 😄
Nope, can't repair your ship unless you die
I read that as 0% total progress
Exactly
mmm a meta tweet, Sean is in the discord
so has anyone spotted anything new that isn't a whale in game yet?
damn, how did you realize, Gunter is secretly sean?
👀
New expedition that involves dying and space whales 😛

dying
Finally 😩
i told people to wait for patch notes before saying its just an expedition, now sean is callin people out
that reminds me of that man with lightning
I'm excited to play this cause it seems pretty challenging
still waiting tho
You are playing it right now in front of your phone/ pc
He could still say "we never do this, but NOW with the Switch and Steam deck updates coming up, we wanted to give you a little something to pass the time" 😛
@frigid silo obviously silly
always expect the unexpected
Release the update idgaf
Patch notes
Stop speaking we already know this game is popular
Sean adds 5 minutes to releasing the patch notes every time you ask
this game is their passion project, let the people be sentimental about their passion
He has a whole community that freaks the hell out over a emoji we all know how popular it is lol.
Spanish Inquisition?
update is now on steam
That makes me think if they ever make a second Emoji Movie maybe they should have Sean direct it. 🤔
we shall now see what the fuss is about
Been on steam for a while
an easter egg atleast
i got up to the space anomoly but had to quit sadly
I was playing ror2 with a friend when it happened 😛
Wow no notes yet
but plenty of whales
I am waiting on this one too
We've had much longer waits and the Expedition is up for you to play if you want to just dive in
Are they just there in the world or expedition only stuff
it's a 7gb update. So it's just about as much as I'd expect ig
so far as I can reason expedition rewards
Die
Die
Yes
what's this?
it's something
It's German
Final milestone of LIFE has leaked
it's a permadeath expedition built around dying and some elements are persistent throughout runs
You can't go further without it
Nein
HG is high
So it’s not perma death bruh
The bart, the
That would make sense based on the infinity symbol on the new cape and the poster with the 'sands of time' emblem on it
It is but kinda not
Death is what gives life meaning

Permadeath? 😨
kinda

It's like, Deathloop but i've never played Deathloop
nms roguelite
Some important things are keept between deaths
biggest thing with perm / survival is inventory
This is my wish
Isn't that a metal band?
its a "permadeath" where you respawn and keep some inventory
Maybe more like Mooncrash. The dlc for Prey (2017)
so yeah its not really permadeath
roguelite?
...yay
Roguelite is a term that has been absolutely torn apart and ruined beyond any initial meaning
yeah it's like, built around you dying and shit
also Roguelike has, Roguelite hasn't
Roguelite is a bit more loose
...huh?
It is pretty straight forward yes? 😄
I literally just jumped up until i died from fall damage
Gta is a rogue like
aren't roguelites just like rouglikes but you get to keep some sort of progress?
no lol
Roguelikes are games that are similar to the game Rogue
Objective: Liven't
Go go gadget plasma launcher
wow, NMS now really is the dark souls of space exploration games! /s
Roguelites are games that take elements from that game, and apply them to other genres and concepts
basically
Perfect for speedruns of that tier
that's the laymans version
YES. That's even worse than how roguelite is being used.
Go go gadget monstrosity!
Optional milestone?
it's funny though
Again i don't take issue with Roguelite because most games now have Roguelike elements
Kinda 😛
It looks like the optional one is "complete the game", so that's understandable.
Roguelike is the one that hurts me
is sean's twitter speech still going or is he done
Roguelike is worse true
"Rogue-lites favor short gameplay runs with victory conditions, in contrast to some traditional roguelikes that can be played indefinitely." -Wokepida
*wokeopida
*WIKIPEDIA
FUCK
No he still going about the reddit thread having a whale fetish
Wait, that's datamine or is the expedition live already?
For folks who got the update that is
Live
