Element 6 unlocked and NMS NEXT Trailer Discussion

Well this isn’t a puzzle…it’s a survey asking us what form we want the last element to be in…so there’s nothing cryptic here aside from the dubious choice of brainwave but that’s unlikely to be voted on regardless so probably a joke option…plus we have no way of seeing the results so if vote on something dumb we won’t likely be left with nothing.

No no no…something is happening at 12pm UK time…not 12 hours from voting opening. Sean tweeted the clocks at midnight uk time so noon is when something happens.

I realise it’s not a puzzle, so I already chose for video. Curious if they prepared several results. For example ‘text’ being patch notes, ‘audio’ being a talk by Sean, ‘video’ a trailer … or possibly just one result, a ‘video’ being muted, just the ‘audio’ from said video, with ‘text’ just the transcription. With the former we could truly miss out … With the latter I can imagine audio, text not so much. I have no clue when it comes to brain waves, likely some distorted W/ARE corruption …

I seriously doubt they’d release the full patch notes at this point…if they’re ready for that sort of a reveal it would be everything…trailer and the whole package. I don’t actually expect video to be a full trailer either…IF we’re lucky it might have audio to it too but given the vote it seems doubtful…likely a short clip of something.

What if it’s a video of Emily preparing us for what is upcoming and saying
“Soon…Really Soooooonnnnnnnn…”

I voted for brainwaves, I knew everyone and their mothers would vote for video.

Ok so the the second bit from the status was numbers updates and that came about an hour after voting opened…the final two might just be more numbers updates which would set voting to close three hours after initially opening. But with Sean specifically flagging 12pm UK time as the time of significance I doubt we’re getting the 6th element in under two hours…unless the 6th element is a tease and later on is like a full trailer or something incredible like that…but I doubt it at this point…still update is a week out…if they had any intentions of doing any marketing at all for this game it’s now or never.

In less than 4 hours, it will be 12 midnight here in California. Might not mean here, but just an FYI

To be fair they have run a lot of dreamer puzzles on US times and kind of left Europe hanging a lot lately so now it’s probably just our turn to be left hanging and deal with odd hours…which is fine to be honest.

What if WE have to deliver the element? Are we going to have to make a video? A brain wave might allude to a puzzle? Text something written? Audio may be another recording perhaps? Oh well maybe it will simply be a huge video trailer of NEXT…

This is NOT a community event…we will NOT have to submit anything. That’s not how the elements work…elements are hints at and clues about new game features delivered to us by A&S/HG.
