Countermeasures is almost done
Holy crap it zoomed
It’s actually 99.6% now.
Woooo, gonna hop in and add the decimals, see what the true number sans rounding is.
So much excitement!
Wow I got to hop back on ![]()
in game is showing as 1 e+02%, so close they’ve gone into exponents ![]()
Website’s showing 99.7% now
We have a specific thread for Swarm Expedition over here ![]()
Apologize for the horrid picture but had to catch it quick. Also, spoiler for the latest expedition.
Spoiler warning for latest expedition
Interaction with atlas after defeating the hive of glass. Seemed like something to be figured out and couldn’t think of a better community. Also wondering if this is a nod to what we are doing here.
Placed this here in case it’s a puzzle in game that has to do with PSS but will gladly move it over to the expedition thread
It’s the number of planets in NMS. Has me quite concerned. What does it mean?
Meanwhile we are counting max player size? Interesting…..
My take honestly is that it means the Hive is everywhere. A Universe primed for Glass.
Probably that they are everywhere, we can not defeat them ultimately.
But what bothers me is this silence, like somethin’ is brewin’
I can’t say I’m the best at lore per se, but isn’t it implied the World of Glass is some flavor of archived version of the Universe’s previous iterations? It would make sense then that the Hive spans all planets if the Atlas archived it all before. Maybe the original is breaking free.
I still kinda think we’re approaching a big overhaul/reset update soon
Similar to how Singularity expedition tee’d up the Autophage arrival with Echoes update, I got the impression The Swarm is setting the stage for them to become a fixture within the main game.
Whether that will happen with the next content update or some time after remains to be seen.
I know the focus is exploration, but I sure would love a bit of a combat overhaul. New enemy behaviors, maybe some on-foot combat with Swarm-corrupted Traveller echoes, proper pirate raids. Gimme a good reason to use my multi-tool! But first I want more exploration and animal overhauls. I love my planetary expeditions
Recall Dreams is transmitting changes again
Don’t wanna clutter up the tracker thread, but the counting page is now twinkling
It isn’t twinkling for me, I was just looking at it, have refreshed the page but still looks like just one more per second - that are very hard to spot now.
Yea seems to be a caching issue, @Astaroth88 couldn’t see it either at the start, but the script for the page has definitely updated.
Edit: Video by @Hawk-Night sent on the NMScord of the animation, in case others face the same caching issue:
