I mean minecraft did it for years, even before microsoft bought em
Actually, it's not. I'd rather have NMS "Enhanced" with all these updates than a "2" from scratch
I dunno, there's a lot of things that could be fixed with an engine upgrade
It'd be nice to see the one side of the space station from the other side
I wouldn't be against a massive overhaul... but I wouldn't want to lose features on the back of it being a sequel
I mean they said updates were coming for next gen consoles, I'm curious if they will use xbox smart delivery and not charge for the upgrades.
I guess it depends on what that next gen update would entail
hm, when is the PS5 due to drop
I'd personally pay another Β£40/Β£50 for another 4 years of NMS on next gen
"Holidays" π
3-4 months? Just long enough for a good ARG
i feel like the lighting update was part of the next gen upgrade...i mean the only thing the new consoles can really do that is different is higher resolution, ray tracing, and faster load times due to faster hard drives
My next gen dream is more variation, better water texture, better cloud texture, and less pop in
A dream nonethless
But it might come true
I just want the E3 footage where the whole planet was rendered from space π
that was so sick
I'd just settle for less pop in, and the ship scanner to have a purpose
yeah people want to say more variation isn't coming but i still hold out hope for it. I know it's been asked for, for quite some time now. I doubt they would just ignore that request entirely.
Can you imagine being able to fire off a scan while flying, that works over more than walking distance?
Basically I think the entire game is limited by the pop-in issues, scan ranges, exocraft speeds
Almost certainly related to memory usage, but I have 32 gigs, give me a bigger draw distance please ;_;
i wonder if No Man's Sky will be able to take advantage of some of the changes coming to next gen then, I read an article where xbox was talking about how they made changes to the way the gpu loads in textures to reduce pop in.
I really need to start a new playthrough. My big "normal" save is just tacked on from all the various updates. I need a fresh save and do things like getting a living ship etc
That would be awesom Dietz
I'm sure with big navi that AMD is expected to bring to PCs this year that they would use their partnership with the consoles and add that same tech in the PC GPUs but then i fear they would be either limited by the PCs RAM or the VRAM on the card itself.
Hi anything?
I have dragged this conversation far enough off topic lol but someone said they found CEN in the trailer and that is an old english rune which i though could be a clue as to what runes we should be looking at but none of them really line up with the furthark runes
@cunning scroll oh thanks for the old english rune bit
Baseless speculation is the topic of the room, right ? π
nothing really new, we are still speculating as to what type of runes/glyphs these are and if the outlines that were done are true to how everyone sees them. I think if we focus on the ones that we know the shapes of that could help us find out what language it is but so far we haven't had much luck.
yeah Ubisoft said that pop in is complete gone in next-gen consoles
Did the community mission have anything it?
I can, at least sort of, answer the question of how HG keeps getting paid
using information I have available from subreddit traffic
and some Ubisoft guy also said that next-gen has the power to load different time periods in AC at once
Cem means ruler in Turkish
so NMS should be able to utilize a lot as well
Nothing abt CEN
the first rune is the letter E in klingon but none of the other ones really line up unless you stretch your imagination a bit
Guys landing on derelict freighter for the first time!!!
Is it just me or does the glyphs look like the code wheels from Assassin's Creed
Oh my goodness
I know the glyphs I reckon
Nah
Right
So
We got a spinny wheel in waking titan
That was a code decipher
It was on email
I think I've lost mine
But that had glyphs on it
I'm pretty sure it was a decipher device anyway
Let me find it
No i don't have the email its linked to anymore
Someone else needs to find it
Any ideas on what the glyphs mean yet?
This is #glyph-investigation. #no-mans-sky for freighter stuff and any other general game stuff.
nah this is a temp channel anyway
and this was created from the Desolation trailer weirdness
but yea, technically it's off-topic for this channel
Kinda hope it turns out to be something
The cipher wheel from WT was different
Soz lol
Unless I'm thinking of the wrong one. This was the one I was thinking which is glyph-less
Another code wheel from assassin's creed
pretty sure they wont use a code wheel from another game
I do remember a glyph wheel
Itβs just odd there is two things in the video. The glyphs and then C-E
Possibly CEM or CEN or some combination
It feels like that could be a hint as to the first two or three letters
Which might help solve the rest of it
might be for a sector on the galatic map, if that would bump us to 12 on total
but i dont know the portal mechanics in depth
i have a high res posted above somewhere too, its definitely CE plus either M or N
if Iβm right then the glyph before the last one is also a C
If itβs a word we could look words that match that. If itβs not weβd have to figure out how to find the rest
there was also a snippet of FI something posted above, but then again we currently have no way to match them to the video runes
that particular frame has a few different partial letters
yeah
I really only see C-E
HA, CE(N?), and FILM
looking at CE, the FILM would be at the bottom of the frame to the left, and HA is almost directly below CE
Yah just looked at the better image I definitely see the HA
The "Ha" is probably "You really paused and looked into this?" HA HA HA π
I mean, the HA's on me, I just tried googling every variation of CEHA film
Nerdest code wheel I code find on the interwebs. Some of the symbols look right but not sure.
im checking 4chan for anything on the trailer, but all Im getting is cancer
What happened here?
I think HGs sort of silence on matter starts least hints that maybe we arenβt just grasping at straws and this stuff was intentionally in the trailer.
Ikr
There would be some word
I feel like we need dataminers
And isnt it convenient that the update broke their tools,thus further delaying the investigation?
It isn't usual for this kind of puzzle to reqiure datamining. During the ARG it was pretty much forbidden to bruteforce the puzzle since it would just spoil the fun
Ofc people can do that - but if it IS a puzzle and we're just missing it, it would be a shame to have it spoiled
But melody of the egg was solved using datamining
I'm looking at it as an HG made arg
Rather than an alice and smith one
But datamining wasn't needed to discover Melody of the Egg right? It was all ingame - it just sped up the process
Ha sorry !!
Yeah I dunno if we gonna find answers by looking at WT
Hey did anyone else notice that the sound sounded weird towards the end? Has anyone tried to see if thereβs something hidden in that sound?
Personally,I just think it takes the fun out of things. It would be good for confirmation we're looking at something, but if it's going to give the game away then it's a bust from my end
Yea
I just hope we have some confirmation
If someone finds confirmation and the rest if the stuff please keep the spoilers to yourself
@cedar smelt it wasn't pretty much, bruteforcing or discussion of bruteforcing was straight up "mute first, ban second" territory
...but I'll be damned if that didn't stop me from Inspect Element on every WT website xD
wordpress sites made it pretty tame though
hahah!! I think there was some stuff hidden in source code etc though wasn't there? It was just the attempts to proper break the game. A&S knew us so well though, they generally had it all zipped up
It crashed agaaaain
there were a few things hidden in source code
What?
and definitely more than one red herring in source as well
@granite sierra we're talking about Waking Titan, the ARG that HG did with Alice & Smith to setup huge updates
NEXT and Beyond iirc
I hope you'll find something
I'd love WT but I hope this turns into an ARG to compensate >_<
Yeah it was before that wasn't it - because the ARG introduced Portals and that was before Next.
But the Nexus came with Beyond and I remember something cryptic around that time to :/
Wt season 1 was for Atlas rises
That's it!
WT season 2 was for Next
Why do I remember something cryptic about the Nexus for Beyond though?
Was that just teasers from Sean?
Yeah it was before that wasn't it - because the ARG introduced Portals and that was before Next.
But the Nexus came with Beyond and I remember something cryptic around that time to :/
@cedar smelt
I believe that was the over speculation from the teaser posted by sean
Ahhh maybe that's it. I knew there was something about it
But I also remember thinking how weird it was that Beyond introduced VR too, when it seemed certain we were getting it with Next
Yes!!
I'm an old man now though so my memory is so hazy of it all. Was one big blur haha
This time if the survey wont have variety and procedural generation people will go nuts
Or spam that into the others option
Oh how we speculated by looking at that survey
That was the closest we ever got to a road map
Anything new
so not the norse ones?
pretty much yeah, also would have to rotate them differently to match
The one I thought I recognised... |X| in ango saxon rune is d but is also day
Why wouldnβt hello games use all same language
It's definitely something
I belive it IS something
I don't believe anymore.
Ok
if you look at the video imported into photoshop those runes cannot be made from any glitch of background material because there is nothing around that part of the freighter later in the video
Definelty added in
I would also speculate that the lines above a few of the runes like the 1st and 3rd may not need to be there
they are a little more pronounced than other parts and i can draw a line all the way across and they sit right on it
but then again they are only more pronounced in one of the images
so thats why i'm speculating
This is a cool website that lets you draw symbol and tells you what Unicode character it is https://shapecatcher.com/ it might help us
You need to find a specific Unicode character? With Shapecatcher.com you can search through a database of characters by simply drawing your character into a box. It can find the most similar character shapes for your drawing.
Hmmm
Same
@cunning scroll try that box on the pinned image?
That website might help us find the language of origin though
think it would really know the unicode for ancient runes?
I doubt it
same
Does unicode even support runes? Never seen that
dont know to be honest
It doesnt
Thanks a lot @cunning scroll !
im getting hung up on something else, im pretty sure one of the glitch patterns is using a screenshot or other scene
from what seems to be like an interloper infront of a freighter crash
Glyph 5 is a musical notation if the site is to be believed
In greek
Ok
Ancient greek musical notation 25
And greek
But I can't find the 7th rune
How many have u found?
Hows the investigation going
@twin token that thing about anglo saxon is actually huge
Might be but I'm to tired rn to look into it
Did some but not all glyphs match
@karmic valve why tho?
Guys posted it on cryptologic subreddit. Hope somebody would know.
Hopefully
What letters do we have so far?
i would really say we have any
i think the first is L
but i think someone else said d or g
can this be pinned as well please
4 vowels and 6 consonants please, Rachel
im sorry we would need your soul for that
dam
who was the one who put the pic on r/Cryptology ? we might want to give the original image(s)
i have no idea but where is the reddit post by chance?
that's a good idea to get more people
oh no not tumblr
yo if we all upvote it then there is a higher chance of it getting replies btw
That is good idea
I should crospost it somewhere else
What other subreddits should I post it on?
hm
r/whatIsThisThing maybe??
ive seen some text on there before
we could try on r/runes
Post it in r/ARG Too
oh good one
/r/conspiracy, tell them you found it engraved on a coronavirus test kit, they'll be all over that
lol
Ahahaa
Yesssss lol
that's fine
when you do post , maybe post the image with the orginal and the traced ?
Ok r/runes it's done
as long as we have a list of subs we can put them into we'll be okay
that's good
I think might get more traction if we can offer more data tho
How many subs did you post it on?
True
How many subs did you post it on?
@summer canopy 3
that way they have resources to pull from
But I will post it on one more
i think that image plus the link would be good. we can put the link in the comments
has anyone checked to see if any of the frames are magic eye puzzles?
Somebody replied.
Make sure to post on r/ARG too
person replied with 1400 words in a paste bin
doesn't help too much though cause it could be more than one word
or a proper noun
But admin is not online
i think the problem we might running into is assuming it's a word
we have no idea if it is a word or not
Ooh emilylives
Yesterday there was a lot of talk about those symbols resembling mathematic symbols which have numerical values associated with them
but again it's all just speculation
like the first symbol resembles gamma
maths borrows a tonne of symbols from all over the place
e is a maths symbol, so is i
The first three are mathematical: Gamma is significantly smaller than Laplacian
here is gamma
Also the first two are not from any runic system.
In fact the second symbol will be crucial, I know no alphabet with a symbol like that.
my money is on a simple substitution cipher -that there's no deeper meaning beyond them being mapped to a position in the alphabet
we have thought some of the symbols were for pigpen but not all of the symbols were in pigpen
I'm checking R'lyehian and Klingon right now.
one other piece of evidence that points to it being related to mathematics is this image
me and spaceman found some symbols which resembles math equations and such on the borders
i doubt it'd be pigpen, as from memory isn't pigpen essentially a one time pad? unbreakable unless you have knowledge of the plaintext, or brute force it
Nope, not even a fantasy language with the second symbol.
yeah your right
Must be encrypted then.
Im pretty sure after looking at the 2nd symbol from the video, that there is a dot in between the second <
<< is left shift
So something new?
takes the bits of a byte and moves them one space left
It would be insane if it was emilylives. But I doubt it tbh
00000001 becomes 00000010
right
Something new going on?
baseless speculation, same as ever
here, found a place where it has a dot
Cool
it also doesn't look like this '<<'
Wow 5 upvotes.** I want comments!**
a more curved first part
now that i look, there are things i see on my downloaded video, that i dont see on YT
YouTube downgrades the quality sometimes
honestly the more high res image we cna get the better
so here's a fun thing: the dots are meaningless as far as reality goes. psi doesn't have diaeresis, and if the bowtie is a rune, they don't have dots either
Hmmm I can't anymore. I just can't.
i think the 2nd symbol looks more like a proportional symbol
Maybe
yo guys i also realized something we have more photos to use reference
okay here me out
No
Wtf I just got notification from PUBG that I won a match. I haven't played like 2 weeks
hacked
Comment wait
anyway we can use all the images to try and find each individual symbol
and move one from there
"Look guys look it's one of my greatest acheuvments"
we need to have a solid foundation and a clear set of symbols before we start speculating anything
first symbol we are 100% sure that it's an upside down L shape right
Yes
yes
And the second is <<
second symbol needs some work i would say
maybe
Maybe
the box one is the real mystery to me
Yes
I doubt the first symbol translates to l
i've never seen anything like the square one
It is Greek note
is it just me or are we restarting the whole investigation every few hours
i drew them all earlier as best i could from the downloaded vid.
is it just me or are we restarting the whole investigation every few hours
@plucky glacier yes
bruh moment
Because every time we crash on something
we dont have a lead. thats the problem
Ok cool
i wasnt sure on the 2nd earlier
But I disagree with the 2nd one
like, whether it's pigpen, nordic rune, or something
good recreation, though the dots aren't part of it imo
It's just<<
i agree with skop on number 2
arent those similar to the old portal glyphs ore am i imagining things?
they're not portal glyphs
actually i think 8 is somewhat inaccurate
there is some good news at least
dont think they are portal glyphs, but some do look similar in shape
these glyphs are too simple compared to the old portal glyphs
It's been over a day since this started and HG haven't commented yet
they have a lot of sharp edges and simplistic design
They normally step on fake news fast
How much of them is there?!
10
if they went for a 1:1 look, it would be way too obvious
it's all the same sequence
Recall that time in Waking titan that someone that wasn't working with A&S started posting clues?
last symbol looks like the eye portal glyph abstracted, for example
HG stepped on that fast
hey one of the blue images gave me an idea
Ok I think I got the square
oh?
we know those blue images are in pixels correct
@granite sierra the 7th one? dagaz?
uh
It has some similarities
what's that from?
and since we know the triangle symbol for sure we could try and reconstruct the image by placing the pixels back where they were
Oficial site
from WT?
@charred urchin you mean making a composite image from them?
p sure somebody already did that
no i mean literally reconstructing one of the images
This is where glyph X is from
@charred urchin there's a lot that could be done if someone who knows photoshop was around. With the right layerblend settings, someone could overlay the images and eliminate the noise/boost the contrast
not sure what that means
Surprised sean hasnt tweeted anything
i don't think it's glyph x
but even if we do that, we can be pretty sure of their general shape as of now already, we need way to interpret them i think
so photoshop might be nice, but not 100% needed
was thinking if at some rare derelict freighters there is a door that needs you to enter some kind of sequence
Ok imma leave this channel for today bye
we can't really be sure about any of them
even if we sharpen them up a bit more, we are even more unsure of the right way to interpret them anyway
Sean has to give more clues
all of them seem to be from different places, or have different applications
I'm thinking, that we might need more pieces to solve this
though a few are used in math or computation
It has to mean something
two incomplete interpretations:
G, unknown, D/N, ps, unknown, unknown, d, a/ae, G, unknown
gamma, unknown, del/nabla, psi, unknown, unknown, dagaz, ansuz, gamma, unknown
we dont even know if this is based on real world alphabets or a fictional one
might just have to wait and see if HG posts anything
ansuz may be incorrect, but it's the closest thing we can get
lol sean murray just followed hello games
and it could be any alphabet, yeah
on twitter
question is which one
Skop's one is closer to Egyptian scripts predating Greek by a few centuries.
both norse and anglo saxon alphabets have some similarities, but then again its pretty abstract so even things like the galagtic alphabet do fit
no real way to know as of yet
No, not hieroglyphs.
seems like someone just went down a list of symbols and picked randomly . . . wait
The last symbol is very Egyptian with that underline.
i had a similar thought already, that the uneven ones seem more akin to anglosaxon/norse, while the even ones seem more "cryptic", like you said egyptian
maybe they are mixed
@proper verge that;s why i think they're meaningless, and is just simple substitution
If it is the case, then statistically the first letter would be E
probably yeah
it's the most likely letter to be repeated
would also make sense in a word, we dont really have a vowel as a second to last letter often
Unlikely. The repetitions of 'e' occur usually in an SOS pattern, flanking another letter.
i would like to try a dictionary attack but we have very little so far and dont know any "shifts" between the letters too
@deep osprey assuming it's a single word
Precisely. If it were E it would be closer, like #1 and #3 or #4
We think it starts with e?
I'm pretty sure it does not.
@summer canopy nope, just more speculation
is there a way to launch a specific dictionary/bruteforce where we specify the first and 9th letter are the same to significantly narrow down the possible answers?
I'm actually leaning towards it being a troll. It's unlikely to have a word with that many letters and just one repetition.
i only know the basics
somebody made a pastebin list of ~1090 10-letter words with the same 1st and 9th letters
The current state is that there are 10 things, 1 of them is repeated, and HG hasn't told us we're wasting our lives
this, im gonna wait for some more infos aswell, thanks for the bin in the meanwhile
I'd be extremely dissapointed if that were the case
I don't think the bin is useful myself, it breaks down if it's more than one word, or if it's proper nouns
we need more info and maybe someone to pixel shift the blue images
The last thing I'd do to encode a message would be using English. An extinct language is sutiable for such purpose, not a widely used one.
@proper verge there's definitely a scene hidden in the blue frames
I don't know image editing well enough to fix the images though
but english would be the encrypted message, you would want the other side to understand it, thats why its encrypted with runes beforehand (the extinct language)
I'd encrypt Latin text with Japanese characters if I wanted to hide a message.
I doubt HG would do something linguistically complex. if anything I would think it would be a more math/tech related code. like waking titan
@deep osprey this is an ARG. It's supposed to be fun for a few nerds, HG aren't trying to bait the CIA
The answer will be simple
That word list has ones with repeated letters, I'll try RegExing it to get rid of them.
or non existant and we're wasting out time
I wouldn't go as far as calling it an arg. We don't have any proof yet
@winged rampart I have proof.
honestly, right now, all it says is that there is more hints to come. (or at least seems that way)
. . .
π
gottem
shoot u right
π³
a good point has been raised it seems
doesnt the weekend/community event start this weekend. or was that just a guess ?
It says Cargo lol
we know
It should start tomorrow
normally starts in a few hours, I've started the mission about around 22:00 BST before
don't know when the official start time is
Weekend missions start 7pm UK time
Maybe that could continue this "arg"
that's what we think so far
Forget RegEx, MatLab will be faster.
ima watch twitter and reddit for now. hope some more stuff will be posted
Agreed
^(.)(?:(?!\1).){7}\1(?:(?!\1).)$
yes
Regex
If that works I can rerun the worldlist
I just found something else, slow down the trailer and at the one minute mark purple text appears.
Ok
Pretty interesting
@icy torrent no workee. I'm pretty sure you'd need to write it with backreferences as you'd need to count letters that have already gone passed the cursor
and I don't have enough headache pills to go and write a regex with backrefrerences
It has backreferences
It what I used to generate that list I posted on the crypto sub, I didn't check it super carefully but it did seem to work

@plucky glacier checking nms website for the words
seems about right
Asteroidal, problem solved
cryogenics is the one
chromatics could also work, since we already have chromatic moons etc
Chromatica - The Lady Gaga Update
Chromatics would be awesome
Soundtrack: Beethoven's Grosse Fugue
It actually sounds nice
Chromatic metal song
It's no spermalist, but... still good
@summer canopy these are chromatic by definition
Yup
I think I like Overshadow the most.
"So what did you get up to today at work" "Checked the nomanssky website for the word 'spermalist' because the letter gamma appeared for 0.8 seconds in a video game trailer"
very productive day it seems
I see nothing wrong with that personally
Still, there's gotta be other method than just bruteforcing it
Wait for more information. Sounds terrible to me.
you're obviously new here
shit i thought we had it
π
but yeah, sadly NMS Pelvigraph will forever just be a dream
the key to this is biology class
Endmatcher sounds interesting as a title as well.
spermalist : 404
it is easier to wait while dead
Just by way of a heads up - if this is a puzzle and if the answer is bruteforced, the mods will likely kick that person out on their ass
My day is ruined
pretty sure at this point that it isnt just a simple word, it would give no real information
nope, otherwise we wouldnt bruteforce
this is an idea i came up with yesterday, actually
some older alphabets (anglosaxon, norse) seem to be similar
so what i think is that the glyphs in the sequence that have a mathematical application are part of a message
i doubt they'd use an old alphabet for a sci-fi game
could also be a fictional one, we simply dont know
We need youtubers to spread the word tbh
dagaz is apparently used in SQL to represent a type of join
Is there a version of the video that doesn't have that godawful youtube compression?
no lol
check pins for a frame by farme
as exepected, no secret pages on the nms website using the minimised word list
@icy torrent if you download the video. its is much better
i went through them again earlier, the very last frames seem to show something glowing which has to be added extra, with the glitch layer on top
but that doesnt really help us
the clues in WT were mostly random strings right?
Random strings normally led to paste bin or bit.ly or similar.
But they are less than 10 characters
how many is youtube
I don't really see a reason for that message to be written left to right, steps should be repeated backwards (for characters #3 and #10 instead of #1 and #8).
11
it can be 10 or 11
Yeah 11! π¦ That would have been a good shout
i have a video open rn that has 10 characters
@deep osprey knock yourself out, I don't think it's a word myself
Could be a URL
what is the sequence?
gotta use all your fingers @plucky glacier
i know we've looked for words
I'd say it's coordinates actually because all vocabulary-related methods make no sense for that message.
yeah, cause i went to chernobyl
haha adam
but what is the actual sequence?
thanks shiey
here's multiple versions of the same sequence
found throughout the trailer
This has to mean something
Yeah. They wouldn't put it there for nothing. I wonder what it is
It can mean someone was too lazy to draw a glyph sequence every time so they copypasted it.
or it's repeated so that it's much harder to miss
^
yeah but
ok i'm convinced
like i first thought it was just
an offshoot
like we found one bit of thing
May i acquire your 2Gb of news
That's truee
Time to download the site and find some clues
I dunno if more people will help at this stage - certainly if more clues come up but right now, I don't think there's anything we're not seeing/haven't tried
there's plenty that we haven't tried, it's just that it probably wouldn't yield results
that and we haven't thought of it
We have plenty of ideas, but no way to classify them
More people will bring more ideas, but we'll still have no way to classify them
tbh, the weekend mission is in an hour
^
wait and see really is the best thing right now
If there's nothing there, then baseless speculation is back on the emnu
take break, get something to eat, if there is nothing in the weekend mission im firing up photoshop and try to fix the rune string for further actions
good plan
would be worth paying attention to the HG made bases
also maybe the derelict freighter interiors, which would be my other plan
the weekend mission text was datamined so, probably nothing
I remember the freighter refenrece in the datamine
@junior flame it was?
Might be worth reading again
The weekend mission in an hour? like in Britain time?
yea
it's been datamined
oh boy
for months now i think
oh
Could have changed with the update
Oh internal build updated 35 minutes ago, so a small update might be being pushed live now...
which I'm guessing is for the weekend mission, but could contain stuff that they didn't want dataminers to see yesterday π
yeah, they're pretty quick with fixes, so might just be that
Probably a fix for the free freighter upgrade bug
yeah its not gonna be huge
probably, there is no way they let a bug in that makes everyone forget about most of the update in a few minutes π
and as the second guy on the post pointed out, we dont know if its monoalphabetic or not, which makes it even harder to bruteforce
probably fixes and flamethrower
Bruteforcing
Massive patch notes
Massive patch notes
@icy torrent where?
Ooohhh
Let's see if theres any stuff related to the glyphs
Fixed an issue that allowed players to summon the Space Anomaly on top of a derelict freighter.
That just hilarious
"Fixed an issue that allowed multiple uses of the Cargo Bulkhead upgrade module."
better not quit my game yet, I'm freighter hunting
oh well it was fun lmao
at least i managed to get an S class and maxed it for basically free
maxed tech slots, then stopped with the cargo when i realized that with the 10 containers available directly aswell now, it wont make a difference anyway
same, got a venator a few updates back that looks awesome, but is stuck on A-Class
not that it matters much, since i warp by ship anyway most of the time
imagine a crazy world where the ship's scanner array would let you... scan things
the price we had to pay to make pseudo-uses for the exocrafts, sadly
getting to photoshop now btw, expect something cleaner in the next hour depending on progress
This is getting of topic?
soleth im working on the cleaner rune scan right now, if that helps your efforts a bit
some of the glyphs are mathematical symbols.
for those that missed it earlier: #glyph-investigation message
@stuck onyx thanks SO much!
we dont know yet
Yeah we dont know
If the glyphs mean 'Desolation'
Then uh....We know a glyph for every letter present in the word 'desolation'
Some say I am the socrates of the modern age
but yeah if that's actually what the case is then we're probably getting another puzzle in the future
but we only see these glyphs on the background of the opening and then other blue screens...in my opinion i feel like if this was DESOLATION then we would see them across other glitchy parts of the video.
Let's remember just how brief these glitch transitions are to begin with and that they're more for the aesthetic of exploring a spooky abandoned freighter over much else
Its gonna be pretty sad if it ends up being "DESOLATION" or something as a hint to the update title
I'd be desolated if that turned out to be the case
lol
it's not desolation,
what it is, is "artist fired up windings to put an effect in the video"
I would also be No Man's Sky: Desolated
can only be desolation if we are saying its done with a non-monoalphabetic encryption
Doubt it but what if its WT related? prob not
i just feel like if they were going to hide something in there like glyphs it would be glyphs we know
which we suppose isnt the case because that would be unbreakable with the current info we have
Unless one artist did it for fun and no one else saw it, I doubt that itβs just desolation
it's not a direct translation because they aren't necessarily glyphs at all but distortion artifacting
Yeah, I think we've done all we can with the glyphs for now, if they're actually something then we require more information - which we don't have right now
Agreed
Welcome back to another episode of WAITING TITAN
π
π€£
The last glyph is so weird
The others are bottom-aligned, but that one is just kinda floating
Like SEANMURRAΚΈ
Sean
It could just be because the video is kinda not great
I'm subscribed to wt on YouTube just in case
I'm sure it won't connect to WT at all
I'll connect u to WT @misty storm
Pls don't π³
π³
@misty storm uwwu
this is the best i could do for now, the quality on youtube isnt really helping... Also i wasnt able to fully fix the fragmentations because it happens vertically aswell as horizontally, so no sure way to know what belongs where
also things like the 5th rune are up for debate, since i dont know if the longer line belongs at its base
but tbh, im out for now, wont really be able to clearly make them out unless you know how to defrag something, which i (clearly) dont
fyi, the https://forums.atlas-65.com/ site is up
jesus fish
the etarc community has been up for a long while, it's just a forum about NMS now
anyway are we sure those letters aren't just greek
first one is just gamma, second one is a lowercase alpha, third one is delta
#7 is from old english, dagaz
it does
somebody said it looks like glyph x which is true, but i don't see the connection
glyph x confrmed = new parallel universe, get on the hype train
it kinda does look like it, but just because glyph x is a literal box
that's the only similarity, yeah
the 4th one could be an epsilon rolled to the side
but thats a very long shot in the dark
https://discordapp.com/channels/146101654981312513/345378190568587275/733456895658033154 this may help yall idk
bruh
Moment
yeah i used it for my "inspection" aswell, but it still doesnt help to figure out the washed up runes
have a nice one then
@summer canopy how long has the website been up?
hey by the way, if you all make any progress or interesting stuff, you can ping me or @misty storm to have us pin stuff. just a heads up if this discussion keeps going
Maybe the whole time but I think it's just a discussion board now
@stuck onyx dud that is awesome great job on the symbols
Imagine getting an email from old gods. That's like heart attack material
it was part of waking titan a few years ago, but now it's literally just a forum, yes.
ETARC's existence is absolutely not any confirmation of arg-y things
Yeah
honestly wish i could have done more, feels lackluster from my side
lets hope we get it eventually
I agree with @stuck onyx's model except number 2 i feel like we don't have a clear enough picture to confirm it
yeah number 2 is tricky
@stuck onyx itβs fine. I felt like that during wt
i really don't think there's anything to find here tbh, wayyyy to little imo to go on
Ok guys if Orbit makes a video on this then itβs like the good ol days
but it's really bizarre that the glyphs look so well-planned
it was a lot of fun @summer canopy
Guess well will find out
I guess all we can do now is wait
dont think we are gonna progress much further with just this aswell
I feel like this is just initiation right!
like hello games has now gotten our attention
Waiting titan intensifies
but then again, ive been looking at the frames of the video too much and now i start to see thing in the chopped up mess
I guess we wait
Why isnt there an emily emoji lol
Idk
so like half-ded
Yes
got it
E m I l y l I v e s
Time to unarchive waking titan chat?
is this just me or does this look like an interloper from behind? on the same frame as the CEN, slide also repeats throughout the video
could be but's hard to tell
looks like microscopic algae to me
I've been thinking of a theory recently. What if Emily didn't wake by herself but instead has been awoken by someone and that's why these glitches are appearing throughout NMS. And using the black image with all the symbols and equations someone figured it out and is trying to cover their tracks.
That would make sense
because emily sacrificed herself in the end. I see no reason for her to wake up willingly
Her last words were "I guess this is goodbye"
im just paranoid about hidden screens because the very last flicker seems to contain something clearly inserted behind the glitch overlay which very much looks like NMS, kinda like glowing asteroids
and IIRC theyve done this before
asteroids also became deterministic in this update
so maybe asteroid walking soon? tinfoil hat on
Indeed it does
did weekend mission, nothing of significance
π’
@stuck onyx are you sure this isnt the new scanner in the derelict? I saw that image after the trailer and it clicked that that's what this is.
Although I'll be honest all the colourful static seems odd for a derelict video
@charred urchin emily is alive. She just lost most of her abilities and hibernated
this is the best i could do for now, the quality on youtube isnt really helping... Also i wasnt able to fully fix the fragmentations because it happens vertically aswell as horizontally, so no sure way to know what belongs where
@stuck onyx
Can we pin the image below this text by paraMo?
this image?
Credit goes to paramo
Ok
@stuck onyx has figured out some of the glitched symbols from the trailer and made them clear
Please correct me if Iβm wrong
Also the weird corner symbol looks like galactic standard English
which one
was looking at SchrΓΆdinger's comment i don't think it's desolation mainly because of the two recurring "upside down L"
#8?
I think he means #1 and #9
oh
normally if the community is onto something that is wrong or false doesn't HG tell us pretty quickly
well we haven't heard anything from them so maybe we're doing the right thing
I do know they watch the discord
sean even tweeted about it once a long time ago
I guess we are on the right track?
I think we are
Yep
thats just desolation
pinned message
i don't think this correct
the glyphgs are far more pronounced
unless this is leading into another ARG, why use yet another set of glyphs
reasoning is the first symbol also happens to be the #8 symbol as well which would mean that the word DESOLATION would not fit into the array of symbols
wouldn't a better easter egg use existing portal glyphs to lead us to a particular derelict freighter as a jumping off point to further whatever arg
It doesn't fit into the array because they may be heavily distorted artifacts
but im saying symbol #1 and symbol #8 are the same which means the word "desolation" doesn't work even if they are coded
this is the start of something
its 1 and 9
^
if they aren't symbols it doesn't have to directly correspond
but interesting
during the summer didn't hello games wait till Friday or was it Saturday to kick things off for the arg?
The glyphs are far too pronounced to be DESOLATION
while some of the letters match up, others are waaaay off
didnt WT start in June of 2017?
Like the sideways hourglass or the <<
^
I'm pretty sure it was late May if I remember correctly
Someone should send that pic to Sean on Twitter and ask if we are on the right track. Probably will ignore us but you never know.
I donβt remember much about WT
I didnβt ever participate in it just kinda watched from the sidelines
dont think its desolation because it gets its extra fade in at the end which yu dont have to go frame by frame and it appears only once, but then again we dont know if the runes even lead to a message anyway
right now i think its waiting time, unless someone figures out something else
did take another look the the "CE" but there isnt something outstanding to it
(also thanks for the pin, glad to be of some sort of help
)
@lament matrix I already sent them my overlaid pic and yeah they just ignored it, lol
Awesome work paraMo! Definelty hope we are on the right track. No one else seems to be working on this. Ask Gothalion to tweet this at sean. Sean's been replying to him a lot. What about the guy who DM'd sean?
SPAM AT SEAN
Lol
Only thing abt CEN I found is that it's a fine in the Anglo Saxon alphabet
Assuming that it IS CEN
Is it just me or is sean too enthusiastic about trailers
I donβt care. The trailers are epic
