  1. Hmm. Only thing I got from the Sentient Plants was the Gravitino Balls. No pearls. I can understand them getting mad at me for taking it from something living though. Since they were a part of the plants. But why do the dang Sentinels get so uppity about taking it from half destroyed ruins. xD They need to chill. Gonna get on and play some more now I think. Oh I found a tiger like creature on one of the planets too. Let me see if I can find it. Don't know if you'll be horrified or not by it xD

  2. It's really creepy how it walks only on it's hind legs xD

  3. I don't know if this is something that is supposed to and set to happen to you at some point. But I just helped out a fleet that was under attack by 6 ships. So I helped them and then afterwards was welcomed aboard the ship of the captain. Who turned out to actually be an admiral. He then proceeded to give me his freighter and the entire fleet that was with it. Who knew killing 6 ships would be so rewarding xD

  4. Just got that myself.
  5. It was a big surprise to me. xD I had just warped to that system for the first time and was planning to go to the station there and get it as a teleportation point. Next thing I know I'm helping a fleet with some pirates. Turns out it was't a big fleet though. Even though there were a lot more ships there being a attacked. I only got the freighter and a much smaller ship. Despite him saying he was giving me his "fleet". The dang admiral tricked me! xD On a side note I now have 3 personal ships and am gonna be getting a 4th apparently. I just keep finding crashed ships now. So I fix their engines and take off thrusters and bring it to my Freighter. Like I literally found two yesterday and got the signal for a 3rd one that I'll be going to get soon. I'm also getting into the game the more I get. Ended up playing until 4 in the morning this morning without realizing it xD
    Edit: Whoops. Meant to say it wasn't a big fleet. Not was. All fixed

  7. So, as of yesterday, NMS has launched its first "Community Event," sending us all off to the nearest Portal monolith to seek out buried treasure for Specialist Polo. Completing the task yields a reward of 'quicksilver' - a new currency introduced in NEXT for these kind of events.

    ...I tried it for a bit last night, and it was entertaining, if not particularly engaging. It was interesting to go through the portal and find dozens of Message modules from other players around the world. First one appeared the moment I warped in, greeting me with "All your base are belong to us." How classic. I suspect things are only going to get more chaotic as the weekend approaches, but in a game like this, where the defining experience is "loneliness," a busy, inhabited system full of players is a fascinating change indeed.

  8. Rob is all over it. I've been avoiding it so far bc haven't been feeling well. Not in the mood for excess humans. I was more excited about your whales and Hick's sharks :)
