20 MORE Useless No Man's Sky Facts | NMS Trivia

[@gromet9994]

Random fact 21, watching Kanaju will fill your mind with great stuff about NMS and are always worth watching. Thanks

[@wesleyward5901]

Fun fact for number 15: The planets in NMS *did* rotate around the local stars in the early stages of development. It was removed because beta testers found it too confusing and kept reporting it as a glitch.

[@SelopianProductions]

actually I want it back

[@saladealer]

there were beta testers?

[@pierrerioux2647]

I can think of two other useless facts. In fact, I was thinking about them while watching your first video, and now after 50 I feel I can contribute my own. These are things I observed myself, but are probably known. 1) In the lading screen, the names of the systems shown are not the real names of the systems. They're just names picked from a list. In a single loading screen you will sometimes see the same name several times, and on distinct loading sessions you can sometimes see the same names again. 2) I dislike some sky colors on planets, but from space, if you look closely at a planet's atmosphere's layer, you can tell in advance what color the sky will be before even landing. It's not always the case, but it works often enough.

[@BlackringIII]

I have one for you; note, it's a bit difficult to confirm this. So, the sentinels are like one big hive mind right? I've noticed when taking pictures of my sentinel ships, the red glowing visors of the ships always sync up. They're off at the same time, then all on at the same time. So cool to me that it works like that.

[@kuraiwolf4047]

That can be explained from a technical point. They likely use global tick delta to handle timing and speed of animated shader effects. That is a common place thing in all modern games.

[@bananadoppiotm1088]

Cool NMS Fact: In the new Echoes update, during the mission where you put atlandium on a bunch of machines, they will start to talk in binary. It reads as it follows: Motherhome; She grows; She lives; She is near.

[@metalsnake27]

If I recall the rotating planets was also removed early into development becsuse play testers were getting disoriented when they return to the planet and everything is different.

[@v1ct0r_4]

Brazilian here, you absolutely nailed the pronunciation of água viva good job, and great to know i'm not the only one who noticed that translation quirk when unlocking the living ship

[@gwoody4003]

Wow theres a few there I never noticed before. I always wondered why docile animals seemed to turn on me. I must have dinged a baby lol. I rarely shoot critters on purpose... though a buddy and I had a really good laugh catapulting some mini-diplos with the plasma grenades one day. The ragdoll animation was just hilarious for some reason. There is a weird glitch that happens occasionally that makes creatures a statue after you kill them. They stand there frozen, and register in the scanner. There's an interesting one I never have been able to reproduce... but on the same day we were launching diplo carcasses, passing ships fired on me and nearly killed me. I flew way up in the air and lost like 4 full shields. And this was way before the addition of pirate raids. We were trying to see how far/how high we could lob a plasma nade and I guess the passing ships didn't appreciate it. Since then I have opened up on passing ships with every weapon, and couldn't get them to do it again.

[@Kanaju]

lol I also love the ragdoll physics in this game. You know, I was able to accidently agro a passing ship while on foot the other day myself. It's attacks didn't launch me though, though I remember fauna attacks used to send me. lol So I could totally see what you're describing. Thanks for sharing!

[@Sontus718]

I really look forward to your videos - different approach than others do.

[@Kanaju]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy them. I'll have to check out the poster you mentioned in your other comment. Thanks for watching!

[@SolarWolfPlays]

On Switch I can say that some small plants that are interactable do move in the wind but it will cause a bit of lag till you highlight the plant for scanning. otherwise for pc it just looks amazing XD

[@Kanaju]

Good to know. Thanks for commenting!

[@SabethDrake]

Yessir I always look around, but I never noticed the variety of intro music until discovering your channel!

[@eternaldarkness3139]

Even your "Useless" videos are highly entertaining.

[@Kanaju]

Thanks!

[@heliummaster6628]

my guess for why all the error messages are the same is SPOILERS!!! that it is the atlas’s countdown to when it shuts off, as the number 16, which is the time it has left appears everywhere.

[@Brickticks]

Hooray! Random facts! Good job! Here's another one: Despite being reprogrammed to serve the player, Laylaps will still scan various plants, animals, and structures just like a normal sentinel drone. Also, question, if there are currently no settlements on Switch, how do those players obtain Laylaps and the Hardframe Exo-Mech parts?

[@Kanaju]

True, although Laylaps sort of has their own agenda from what I remember. They're more like a companion than a pet or servant. And that's a good question! I'm actually not sure. 🤔

[@kuraiwolf4047]

They just can't. I don't think any of that is a thing on switch.

[@cyrollan]

Wonderful channel. Always nice to see a new NMS video

[@Kanaju]

Thanks for watching!

[@Nitin-Ace]

My minipc loading screen takes so much time that you can complete an expedition. I have explored so many galaxies/ solar systens during the load than in the actual game 😆 As always thanks a lot for the awesome video 🥂

[@kyonmpa8327]

you spelled "'água-viva" perfectly, coming from a portuguese speaker ;) nice vid man!

[@DerangedKat]

Switch Users can look around the loading screen as well. Weird thing is just before you pop into your game you can occasionally see the names of the star systems too

[@themadman5615]

And other useless fact that I only figured out on accident is that you can do little barrel rolls during the warp loading screen. It can only be done with star ships, not freighters obviously, but it's an interesting little detail.

[@jh.araujo]

I'm brazilian and for me you absolutely nailed the água viva pronunciation!

[@AlatheD]

"Free of charge!" I mean, I can't say there's no way I might throw money your way to hear you talk about strange/dumb/weird stuff in this game. In my family we don't just say 'Oooh, Ah" we say (favorite time for this is fireworks, lol) "Oooh, Ah, murmur". The great thing about that is when other people figure out you're literally saying "murmer" it makes them chuckle. :) OMG, it's the Windows Intergalactic(tm) symbol! "You can look around the loading screen." I know what I'm gonna do next time I load up NMS!

[@abbazabba58]

#8 - I played this game the first month or so when it came out. I was both excited and really sad when I finally saw one of the stars with a name. Just hopped back in after several years away. It’s so crowded!

[@The_Glasses_Character]

looking around the loading screen is a good way to make sure your controller is working

[@SmartSmears]

Thinking about how when I watched the last vid I didn't have the game, and now I do and all of this stuff is suddenly a lot more understandable

[@Kanaju]

Yep, that would help. Thanks for watching even before you played though! I hope you enjoy the game. 👨‍🚀

[@harperthejay]

Fun fact, on the Switch, when you're in the loading screen, you can look around using gyro controls. So if you're moving the switch itself around, it moves the camera. Source: I just bought the game and I play on Switch :)

[@lonelyPorterCH]

I knew the out of order inventory one, because my inventory in the 2 expeditions I done in december was very much messed up like that^^

[@fortes_05]

As a portuguese speaker you spelled "água-viva" almost perfectly

[@lutamonster]

you pronunciation of água viva, was perfect

[@SelopianProductions]

I look around the loading screen, and I still have been doing so for 7 years

[@Jet_K]

7:44 As a Brazilian, I can say that your pronounce was spotted on, there was no accent at all.

[@theflyingjet453]

When I first played the game I actually had no idea it was a loading screen and the only thing I could do was look around so I did look around

[@TarasSkyJourney]

Here is at least one new player who looks around the loading screen. :)

[@stinbray1120]

Ive been listening to these vids while weed eating

[@anditippie5923]

When I am adding slots onto my exosuit, it totally add them way over on the right hand side. I’ll put two or three over there partially for giggles and grins because I think it’s ridiculous and partially because it’s kind of fun to stick things that I want to make sure stay filled up like ammunition, ion batteries, etc. 😂 I can usually get slots pretty quickly so it doesn’t last for very long, but it sort of cracks me up because it’s so silly

[@gabrielgarciaalcantara1803]

Agua viva! Very good!

[@xaneanian]

On number 8, I did look around the loading screen and saw all these names, but I was using the VR edition of the game.

[@travisschrader1263]

Fun fact! On switch ( I’m on switch and I wouldn’t know if it works for other people) you can press r or l on the controller to spin in hyperdrive

[@perisemiotics3204]

this was extremely useful, thanks!

[@Kanaju]

Oh no! I have failed. 😰 These were supposed to be useless!

[@perisemiotics3204]

@@Kanaju oh no you're fine, I meant it as _uselessly_ useful!

[@Kanaju]

@@perisemiotics3204 That is acceptable. 👨‍🚀

[@rlmf2000]

Such a nice vid! I speak Portuguese! (related to useless fact 16)!. Also how do you get a sentinel flare?

[@terminalvelocityrunner2202]

Get a settlement. Go to the space station cartographer and get a settlement chart for five navigation data. Then use it to find a settlement. Claim that settlement by becoming the overseer and then progress with its mission. You’ll eventually get a communicator call on your starship while in a different system. There’s a wiki article on the quest called A Trace Of Metal, so be cautious of spoilers, but do check it out for further help on actually triggering the Trace Of Metal quest.

[@SeeJayEmm2]

#15, I think what they did works for NMS. The game isn't a sim. But, I can imagine it. Elite: Dangerous has pretty realistic orbital mechanics.

[@Sontus718]

Check out the poster 'The Journey to Nowhere'. I think the symbol for 'y' is incorrect compared to symbol tables I have seen.

[@Lordoftheapes79]

Thanks for filling my brain with useless information.

[@Kanaju]

No problem! I had to clear my brain of it somehow. 😉

[@lonewulfmo9128]

Hi Kanaju. Ur channel is my nms bible. Have u done a video about features hello kud add to male nms the perfect sci fi rpg? Here's my top 3 ideas 1) missions a la derelict freighter mission where u fight against viking or gek criminals w ur multi tool in out posts, caves. 2) have more aliens idling in settlement who u can engage in discussion with while seated or play old skul arcade games with 3) 1st person view during warp. Thanx for ur channel kanaju n thanx hello 4 making a dream game come true.

I never knew you could look around the loading screen

[@simoncastle836]

new player here, for number 8, yes I do look around the loading screen

[@bestinventor5083]

I like to turn around completely in the loading screen.

[@felixsheep]

Yes finally! Things i don’t wanna know 😂

[@terminalvelocityrunner2202]

The word Ortbital on the poster might be a reference to the Ort Cloud, a predicted location on the very outer edge of our solar system.

[@Kanaju]

That's true! But T is also located next to R on the keyboard, so it's likely just a typo. I like the thought though!

[@terminalvelocityrunner2202]

@@Kanaju you do have a pretty valid point, lol!

[@corm7538]

Maybe the tiny plants you talk about in fact 20 have a dark side to them, they just may be an Easter egg for Doctor Who's Weeping Angels, b/c the plants can only move with the wind when you're not looking right at them...If you know anything about the Weeping Angels of Doctor Who this makes these tiny plants a little on the creepy side...lol

[@adam.cpk8689]

Cool Video🤝🏽

[@Kanaju]

Thanks! 🤝

[@Aesculathehyena]

False. #7 is not useless, it's extremely useful if you've just bought/found a really good ship with the one flaw of a weird inventory shape. Like my explorer, the Arctic Dragonfly, had before I fixed it. (Really though, good vid)

[@Psychol-Snooper]

If I turn my mouse speed all the way up I can look straight back on the loading screen, but you can't do a full circle. I tried yesterday.

[@Theoneandonlyguy]

Quick question If anyone could respond that would be great! How do I find 16 glyphs? I found one but most guides suck.

[@emerywatkins828]

Find anomaly aliens on space stations or finish both storylines

[@anditippie5923]

If you do the purge storyline, that’s the one you get the 16 gloves in. If you find aliens on the space station, talk to them. Then talk to them again and offer them 100 neonates. They will tell you where they’re grave is and you can get a glyph from them😊
