Elite Dangerous - Generation Ship Discovered (and how to get there)

[@asysi]

Imagine how good it would be if you could dock and explore inside.

[@Droogie128]

Nope. Just more to look at and wish for more.

[@asysi]

One can hope.

[@TheGamingTruckr]

Not everyone obeys galatic law bud. pirates and scavs exsist all over and theres got to be some mighty fine loot and artifacts in that ship.

[@TheBlockMonsterLp]

SC will ofer such things :)

[@bettercallconnolly8549]

Can you imagine though? What if your suit ruptured and you caught the virus thing and then you docked at a station and caused an epidemic leading to community goals for cures and stuff. THAT is emergent gameplay frontier. Admittedly, they are making steps in the right direction but it's taken 2 years post release to even get voice acted logs in the game?!

[@davetopper]

The beauty of server side content, data miners can't find it. It is all up to us in the beauty that is our world of Elite Dangerous. It is little things like this that make it soo worth it.

[@The_Burning_Sensation]

Spooky. I love that they've treated it in such an understated, scientifically believable way. I mean, this seems like something that could actually be plausible.

[@Mrrshal]

Humans and human environment carry thousands of different cells, bacterias and viruses. Odds are that those alien viruses could have been killed I think. We are alient and dangerous to them the same way they are to us.

[@Dark__Thoughts]

Alien micro organisms are most likely going to be pretty much "incompatible" with us, but that's all hard to tell because we've never found one yet. Still, pandemics are pretty much the number one most likely thing that could cause our species to go extinct here on Earth, a crowded spaceship with limited resources and FTL capabilities is even worse and a pretty scary scenario.

[@The_Burning_Sensation]

There's really no reason to think an extraterrestrial virus would be any less compatible with us than a terrestrial one. If you're talking about bacteria, sure-- that's a life form, and bound to be limited by all sorts of environmental factors. But viruses have no metabolic processes at all-- they're like random bits of data.

[@razr6302]

Think about it as if it is in relation to the disease that the Spaniards brought to central America. The indigenous people were susceptible to the disease and their bodies couldnt fight it off, yet it was alien to them. The "incompatible" argument falls apart there. We would be in the same shoes as the indigenous people of central America. Our bodies wouldnt know wtf the foreign microbe is, therefore we couldnt fight it and it could potentially kill us just like happened with this Generation Ship. They really should have ejected the infected person into space for the greater good of the community as soon as they realized the infection was alien. Perhaps kept a sample in a lab that would be indefinitely quarantined, with only one or two scientists/doctors studying it until they could come up with an immunization, or die trying.

[@Mrrshal]

+Viral Inspirations but the virus will not have the key protein for accessing the cell. Our earth viruses works only because we both coexisted MILLIARDS of years together. Coevolution. Our body will try to reject any foreigh bodies. And again: just by the number of living things in our body, we have more odds to kill the virus/bacteria since we have more types of organisms and immune mechanisms! Also viruses do not live by themselves because they need other living things to reproduce.

[@Ballenman69]

Those voice acted messages are creepy

[@ZecrOfficial]

Bas Bijl that's the idea

[@Ballenman69]

Zecr i know. but fd really did a good job on these

[@AJZulu]

It gives the the place and situation some weight. Makes it feel real.

[@davecrupel2817]

Creepy, frightening.... .... Depressing....

[@Cotcan]

@@davecrupel2817 Even more frightening considering the current pandemic.

[@Monkeynuts502]

Could you imagine, eventually, when space legs are added and EVAs are a thing, finding one of these, popping the airlock, all music cuts out, and there are just bodies floating everywhere...

[@LtCWest]

Conserved for all eternaty in the cold hard vacuum of space. And disease as well.... Now Im really sad....

[@sneakycactus8815]

The thetis ship, blood all over the walls, crazed people, writing in blood. Dark hallways. Yeah, thats fucking Terrifying

[@SanctifiedEternity]

Its time bois, odyssey awaits

[@kiselinaV]

@@SanctifiedEternity I dont think it will have that many features, probably just walking on planets

[@SanctifiedEternity]

@@kiselinaV it won't have many when it first comes out lost likely. But ik sure they will be adding a plethora of features post-release

[@luiscaroco424]

Those messenges delivered quite an emotional beat...

[@edweagle]

Props to the voice actor

[@mursac1959]

I imagine this ship is going to wind up a quarantine zone fairly soon. Patient zero cut himself while sampling an asteroid, so whatever this thing is was able to live in an airless, sub zero environment with constant exposure to solar radiation. A cold, enclosed spacecraft full of old corpses sounds like a paradise (read: breeding ground) by comparison.

[@xamidi]

There are stellar phenomena in that system, you can check them out, they are definitely life that survives in vacuum.

[@jusa297]

Oh, the thargoids, I get it now.

[@pepo5120]

for some reason this gives me Dead space feeling

[@metaph3r]

P3PO or System Shock

[@Flesjemetwater]

P3PO I was thinking about The Expanse.

[@pepo5120]

Flesjemetwater uu yea

[@scratomatic]

I was thinking HomeWorld: Cataclysm.

[@xamidi]

Funny coincidence: Today I saw my first stream of that game (didn't know it before) and today I first visited that generation ship. Now, after that, I saw your comment (first time).

[@Focusbreak-Habeeb]

That's not a ship.. it's a tomb. Could the generation ships project failed or is it just this one..

[@TheMarineGamerIGGHQ]

As he said, quite a few did manage, but many didn't as this one did not

[@errgh1257]

The Imperials reached Achenar on a generation ship didn't they?

[@kiesta0740]

I believe the starting planet in the original Elite game (Lave) was colonized by these generation ships.

[@Pecisk]

Kudos for LOTR reference :)

[@The_Cadaver]

Pretty sure that's an Event Horizon reference too.

[@Valiancy99]

"I should probably go for one last walk.... While I still can." Like Jesus....

[@EpicMrBlack6869]

Wow those voice logs are super scary, FDev stepped up their game with those

[@davecrupel2817]

The Background Gamer took em only 2 years

[@karatepirus]

The voice acting adds such a great amount of feeling to these events. The walls of text we're all used to just don't come close to this. Well done FD.

[@riggedforepic6293]

I don't play Elite at the moment but I find the way you narrate this videos wonderful. Thank you for so much coverage of this astounding game

I'm not a gamer, and my pc isn't strong enough, but if i ever buy a new one, this game will be the first i start playing. It seems to be so awesome!

[@CodyTaylor115]

György Mohl it's for Xbox too if you have one that said pc is better

[@DinoWarrior12345]

György Mohl I play on a 2 year old laptop with an intergrated graphics card from amd and I still very much enjoy the game

Cody Taylor Nope, i don't have any consoles. The plus side is, that when i'll buy a new pc, the game will be even more detailed (i really wait for more planetary landings 😀)

***** I have a 1GB gtx 550ti video card, that's not enough unfortunately 😕 Nevermind, i'll keep working, and hopefully will have the time to play, too

Max Stone My pc is already 5 years old, and it wasn't a gamer config back then either 😀 But i think an upgrade will be neccessary anyways, my work would need a stronger gpu too...

[@AxelCross]

Things like this are why i started playing Elite in the first place. I want to explore, and find stories like these. FDev, please dont stop with content like this. Please populate the game universe with more mystery and lore and unique points of interest like this!

[@joshanator21]

ObsidianAnt is where I get all my lore for Elite, props for doing what you're doing!

[@Keberus]

Well, that's kinda depressing... Space is a cold hard place... :(. I hope, there are some still functional and populated generation ships out there. Could be a cool feature to evacuate the crew with passenger ships :)

[@sharlin648]

Very very very spooky...

[@tuathaanajb]

Dark as hell!! Thanks ObsidianAnt, I really really like the format of this video. How the viewer can kind of feel like they have consumed the content without having to fly out there themselves. I wish that FD would put some kind of actual gameplay at sites like this, but as long as they don't, well, this video really is all I need. Thank you!

[@Dylnsgames]

My god the voice acting in this is amazing, the logs really tug at the heart strings, the thought of all of those people dying, knowing that there was no place to go to escape the virus, on a ship where the only point of your existence was to give birth to someone who would eventually give birth to another person, I feel like I would go nuts on a generation ship

[@dalendria]

Dude you have some of the best ED content. Listening to those logs creeped me out. I hope Frontier makes more like this but closer to heavily populated areas. Right now, I am focusing on Felicia Winters space and so have not traveled out far.

[@Damonwex]

This kinda reminds me of the vaults in fallout.

[@klarkolofsson]

These recent ship findings and the voice messages that go with them is so far my favorite thing about the 2.3 update!

[@tlita93]

This is such a nice story. The mystery, the spookiness, his voice and the log, the aesthetics of the ship.... It's just so good. Elite really needs a lot more stuff like this. Like what happened "back in the day" of rocket fuel, tragedies like this are just so interesting to me, especially if it's spooky like this. Like a mini game, mini story that you can experience. I'm really impressed I have to admit. :)

[@ArcherAC3]

It was so creepy. It kinda gave me the Dead Space feeling as someone said here. That would be a serious desperate situation in real life, wow. It would be great if you could get out of your ship, equip a flash light or helmet mounted light, and explore the ship. Maybe only being able to access those logs from the inside.

[@Tameem3000]

This hits differently in 2021

[@terryhicks2005]

The best part of this game is that pure tranquillity that peeks out behind the stars. That human wanderlust

[@richardsummers7846]

love the video's Ant can't wait for the day when you have 1 million + subs, if anyone is worthy of that degree of participation, it's your channel. I am convinced that day is coming for you!

[@jalenmiller6120]

Really enjoy your videos man, very well edited and great narration! You definitely inspire me to try and find more stuff in Elite Dangerous.

[@messiermitchell4901]

I wonder if the contagion is still on board.

[@messiermitchell4901]

***** What if it lies dormant?

[@blethigg9320]

Someone needs to dock with it and investigate. Not me obviously. I mean, I'd love to... but I'm busy. I've got that...thing I need to do...in that place. Tell you what, why don't you go and let us know what you find. Don't tell me in person though. A text is fine.

[@munky342]

Ryan Mitchell not just still onboard. In space too. they were throwing bodies out of the airlock. Bacteria can last thousands of years in space. so be careful what you pick up out there.

[@N1NJ4BADGER666]

But if it was caught by the scientist cut in space then doesn't that mean it can survive fine in a vacuum? Or at least a form of it. I think it could still be around.

[@munky342]

earl gαy a good point. but nowhere near as fun.

[@Smood47]

If the game had more awesome story content like this it would be incredible. It needs a fully fleshed out story and campaign!

[@punchnazis3498]

there's a surprising amount of stuff, it's just hard to find, because you get few or no clues about where to go (which is nice to an extent, but it would also be nice if frontier made some of it more accessible). I went to some abandoned planetary settlements that someone else found (didn't even show up on scanners, so you have to know the coordinates or randomly stumble across it), and they had cool stories like this. One was about trapped miners and a corporate cover up, and the other was about a mysterious dead body and creepy "presence" lurking on the planet surface. Unlike this though, the data logs weren't voice acted. And just like the generation ships (and the planetary cities, stations, outposts, etc) the settlements are really atmospheric. One of them had an alarm that would periodically go off, with a voice telling you to evacuate (with screwed up sound, because it's been repeating for dozens or hundreds of years). Now frontier just needs to tie more of it into missions, and to also give us some FPS gameplay, to really bring this stuff to life.

[@DavidKnowles0]

Part of the problem is a lot of the stuff so far have been found because the player base have cheated, so the player base isn't being trained enough into how to find these things. The Guardians bases were suppose to be discovered in a certain way that was abandoned because we found them use the game trailer instead, Jacques station was suppose to be found following clues planted all over human space in news feeds, which would have surely train hundreds of people into reading the local news feeeds, but someone instead found it using the filters on the galactic map.

[@RoderickWortham]

Dude that was fucking AWESOME! More vids with that kinda feel please. Gave me goosebumps at the end. GJ brotha!

[@jamesb6102]

So epic!!! Love the voice acting, it adds so much needed life to the game :)

[@harrythebait9793]

This is why I like space game, Devs put in efforts that might never get discover, but once people find it, the feeling of discovering new things that people never found before is better than anything!

[@barakoas]

This game need much much more content like that... and all voice acted! im tired of the emptiness filled with walls of texts which i cba reading... i wanna see cool stuff IN the game.. without the need of reading stupid forums which only makes me angry...

[@Ebalosus]

W4DER that, and it needs to be organically discoverable, like with a discovery scanner pulse giving you an idea that a beacon pointing to something like what was in the video was within the current system. Then you go to any stellar body within the system to try an find the beacon(s) telling the player how to find the generation ship (for example), and voila! No need to decipher overly cryptic messages, just the wherewithal to seek and you shall find.

[@munky342]

Evan Robertson but then everyone would find everything withing a few days. that's boring. I prefer that we have to figure out things like this. that its cryptic. makes the discoveries worth more.

[@SierraSierraFoxtrot]

Angry comment omitted out of respect and agreement with your sentiment.

[@jakebatty530]

munky342 there's 400 billion star systems and it's an example, not saying eveything has to be like that. however realistically technology would make it that I'm easy in elite, if not easier but so far it's difficult to prolong gameplay even if they community speaks out hate on that and want some life on the game

[@Alfsmitty]

And these discoverys should be made public via galnet. Like when you open galnet you get a message: "BREAKING NEWS: GENERATIONSHIP DISCOVERD IN..."

[@mgpmisterk2322]

oh man i love the brutality of the audio logs, shows just how dangerous such an undertaking could be in real life, elite dangerous is already an unforgiving universe for those of us with faster than light tech, and this adds to that sense of unforgiving brutality

[@Pecisk]

Nice video summary and that ending will stay with me, nice editing ObsidianAnt! (y) If FD could find a way to add more voice logs and add voice synth to NPCs...wow. I hope we will get there :)

[@ObsidianAnt]

Thank you! :) Yes, I would love to see a lot more voice acting in Elite as well. I suspect it will come eventually...

[@rimbaud0000]

well this is just super, gj fdev. Also lovely work at end mr Ant

[@benjackson8731]

Did a quick bit of comparing of the original message and the data files found. It seems to the original message is a corrupted version of the 4th log with the directions transplanted into it. Will be interesting if there are others out there and if they follow this pattern.

[@garycleveland6410]

This is cool! I remember when they mentioned these ships back in 84'. This shows that the game's creator was thinking long term when he made these games.

[@StarlancerAstro]

The game needs loads more content like this. Stories and content that makes it available to a lot of players, these mysteries are so far and few between most players will never be a part of it till it's all over.

[@Hoto74]

That is how a big sandbox game works. There is no "every player get the same content" and that is good so. You can be lucky and get more out of the game in 100h than other players in 1000h or you are the other player. Life is not fair, a sandbox game is not fair too. All what you can do to be on the better side is, to watch out for such discoveries from the community and fly there by your own like I do.

[@StarlancerAstro]

I'm not expecting the same content just more, more things to discover more stories to unfold, even if they are shared between players, actual missions that require more then fly here turn around and fly back. The only real content at the moment besides the rare once in a blue moon stories is player created content, expeditions, player groups, etc. I was part of the group that first discovered the barnacles and sure it was exciting, but exciting once a year or so doesn't cut it for content. Even tying CGs into stories would be great but that too most of the time is a missed opportunity. I could go on with ideas but they seem to fall on deaf ears.

[@Hoto74]

Sorry, misunderstood this. You are right, there should be much more in it, but that is easy said, we don't know why there is not more in it, possible they have a too small dev team because of too less money for such things. Money is badly too often the reason why there is so much unused potential in a game and ED is a hugh game because they must fill a complete galaxy. I must say I like user generated Content, players can do so much by herself to fill a Sandbox game, but you need good peoples that plan and make that stuff the right way so that many have fun with it. We could also need much more of such players.

[@finneganlong6865]

Imagine finding one of these, fully active, still traveling in deep space, with a crew that has no Idea of the events hat transpired over the years that their ship was in flight and no way to contact everyone. Imagine being told that your journey was a waste, and you arrived in a couple hours because of faster than light travel. Creepy.

[@dhoffnun]

I like seeing this kind of content making its way into Elite!

[@MrNibnob2]

Thanks for posting this Ant. Such a tragic story.

[@TheDanielsliekmanis]

I really hope Frontier makes more small stories like these. It's these things that make this game so special.

[@goglythe5036]

Imagine, that after hundreds of years they've got to the destination and they see there is colony already

[@Frank_G_Finster]

Nice ship name... Lycaon was king of the Arcadians and the first "documented" werewolf... The story can be read in the book "Transformations" by Ovid...

[@megabrogames239]

I've been saying from day one that there should be secret missions/discoveries for us all as a whole to work through just like this. I'm so happy that things are being found

[@josephjones2754]

Well done with the spoiler warnings @ObsidianAnt! i enjoyed having the system to start a search with and then discovering it on my own. thanks!

[@l337acc]

I wonder how long this has been in the game, waiting to be discovered. Was it introduced with 2.3 or when Generation Ships were announced? Who knows...

[@MizaT11]

Elite Accidentyl Most likely.

[@mackandelius]

I wouldn't be suprised if some hidden stuff from previous updates still haven't been found. So we have no idea how long they've been here.

[@BigZiggy1629]

Elite Accidentyl all the of the top devs have said there is plenty of stuff we haven't found yet. they've been saying this since before horizons

[@Hoto74]

And even when it is not true, it is good that they said it, because the thinking you can every time found something what no other have seen yet makes this universe so much more interesting. The problem are here more the players that didn't find anything in too short time and saying "there is nothing interesting in this universe". As a player you need to have patience and enough fantasy to dive into a gaming world, leaving a gaming world, a second life. But there are too many players out there, for that games are only the for fast fun, they can't dive into a gaming world and they can't living a second life. For the second one the first one are often only Freaks, Nerds etc. But deep in the heart ED is a Freak/Nerd game. ;)

[@Hoto74]

Right, because of the hugh amount of Space in this game even 100 hours are too less. ED want to be realistic and it did want that such things should be special for the complete gameworld. If every player have a high chance to find a Generation Ship, than that means that there must be many thousands out of it in the space and that would ruin it totally. And if someone find something like this you can be sure that fast many other players know it too and so everyone have the chance to get there by themself and watch it. And yes, I never find such important things, but the most time I was there by myself after one player find something. But to be true, I never searched for something special, I found all that little special things for me on my way. Ok, excluded my small exploration trip a year ago. ;)

[@Jack_Wolf]

Thank you very much for making and sharing this vid Sir Ant! It made my night... very well done! :-)

[@youwonder472]

[@kefkaZZZ]

I found the generation ship Atlas completely by accident. Really cool that there are more out there!

[@hambonesmithsonian8085]

This is creepy beyond measure. Just imagine the terror these people felt, if only we had developed FTL by then.

[@LtCWest]

Thats the thing. I dont know much about Elites lore but Im sure by the time this happened the FSD was already a thing. Problem was, the ship was so far out, they didnt know where to look, not to mention the lack of communication over such wast distances.

[@brucehunter8235]

Now we need to find a Space Dredger!

[@schiefer1103]

Ross Balmer Didn't play any of the old games... what's a dredger?

[@Unmedicated_Moments]

PLKarmann A gas giant dwelling monster of death

[@schiefer1103]

Old glory ohh... okay...

[@brucehunter8235]

Like the Generation Ships, Space Dredgers were mentioned in the booklet for the original 1984 Elite, but never actually appeared in the game. They are huge factory ships that scour space for debris.

[@DavidKnowles0]

Hopefully 2.4. or 3.0, after all someone got to clean up all of the mess the aliens will undoubtedly leave behind.

[@NachoHexagons]

ObsidiantAnt so much thanks for your videos! I don't have a lot of experience in the game, so I can't go out there and find misteries like other players... Still, with your videos i can keep up with every story lore and discoveries!

[@soddof7972]

just got back from there - it looks great and really spooky. And watch your throttle dropping from supercruise.

[@SweRaider1993]

Hope to see more voice acting like this in missions and various environments. I mean it doesn't take that much effort once the dialogue is already established. Hire some short term voice actors and just start filling it out.

[@Vevvev8]

Thanks to your space pumpkin video ObsidianAnt I found another alliance base with a bunch of space bark. It was cool to explore that nebula but i am now farther from the bubble than i have ever been before. I am not looking forward to the trip back to the bubble...

[@LtCWest]

Just think about the hard cash you can make when you sell the exploration data ^^ That will make the trip easier

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

Imagine going on a generation ship to get to a system, and then ftl drives are created before they get there

[@tyorca5854]

How did a subluminal ship get that far out?

[@ObsidianAnt]

It took 100's of years to get there.

[@tyorca5854]

At 50% the speed of light it would take about 17 years to reach Alpha Centauri, so I assume it's doable, as long as the ship is travelling relatively fast.

[@Dahaka27]

Travelling at appreciable fractions of the speed of light like 1/2 would not allow you to see very much of the space around you with any amount of meaningful accuracy due to relativistic distortion which would be extremely hazardous, so it's unlikely they were going THAT fast. Not to mention being able to brake down your velocity enough so you can stop and survey asteroids like what happened here would take a LONG time with subluminal drives travelling that fast. We have no idea when these transmissions were recorded either so it's possible that the disaster took place reasonably recently within 200 years or so they might have been traveling slower for almost a thousand years possibly.

[@benrussell-gough1201]

Don't forget relativistic space-time dilation effects. At very high sublight speeds (>0.25c) the rate of time progression inside the ship starts to slow down relative to observers in nearby star systems. Because the ship will also become longitudinally foreshortened by more relativistic effects, it will seem to move far faster than it is actually moving. By the time you reach half the speed of light, time is travelling 15% slower inside the ship and the ship is 15% shorter and 15% heavier than it ought to be. Once you get up to around 9/10 the speed of light, this distortion has increased to over 50%. The ship has been in space for centuries. Thanks to the magic of general relativity, it's possible that the crew may have only died a few months ago, ship's time.

[@DerGeistDesKriegers]

If I recall, they went out at faster speeds than we can today, about 10-20% of c(lightspeed)

[@erschao]

whats the piano music that play's when you exit hyperspace at 2:49? it would be a great song to play in the background when in game at a location like this.

[@Kissamiess]

If you go there right now, better not do it in the Open. The place is so crowded that even if you don't get ganked, the probability of crashing is really elevated.

[@pouncingfoxes]

Thanks for your videos, Ant. I love them.

[@PJsprojects]

I don't know,docking sounds like a risk,contagion may still be a problem.

[@themainman2827]

Elite dangerous could seems a simply space simulator, but actually it turns in a really creepy game when yo go outside the buble.

The voice who's talking in the Logs about what happened is definitely John Snyder, voice of Bob in Cowboy Bebop and Detective Oishi in When They Cry, among many others.

[@wrgrwgwrgwgwwr]

this ship looks like the ship from The Sunshine Movie

[@Gabdube]

You mean it looks like a realistic spaceship with a proper whipple shield. The Icarus from Sunshine does not have any means of generating its own gravity though. The crew would be in freefall all the time except when doing a burn.

[@shinkicker404]

yeah I was thinking that too.

[@digitalbios]

This is perfect for a Netflix show all on its own.

[@NuclearBumpkin]

Guess I'll have to start building a new exploration Diamondback.

[@TerrorTerros]

I imagine there ships in the future being something akin to the vaults in the fallout games, each with their own unique story and payout.

[@TheWindigomonster]

Can't wait until this comes out on PS4 so I can start playing

[@ryanzhu546]

from what i can tell from the logs it most likely that the crew was in contact with a inactive garden bio weapon

[@Gabdube]

Doesn't have to be a weapon. A protein structure such as a virus or microbe could be naturally-occuring. Doesn't even have to be a protein structure either. Many things could screw with the immune system and turn it against itself.

[@combustiblefire5510]

However creepy that seemed, wouldn't it have been more creepy to see the bodies they ejected into space?

[@JanVGH]

Well. I should finally fully upgrade my ASP Explorer so I can find those mysteries myself. Especially the mysteries around the Guardians and their ruins are very interesting or the sudden appearance of that aline ship which is pulling other commanders out of the hyperspace. I'll lay my focus on this and if I get the Federal Corvette along the way it is just a little bonus. My main focus is to get to know what the hell is going on in this galaxy full of mysteries

[@scottestock]

This is pretty amazing and so haunting. Can't wait for this to release on PS4.

[@Frankymole]

Congratulations on using spoiler point breaks. An excellent idea.

[@chrisstehlik7927]

Thanks for this ! What more content? That can't be !, I was told emphatically by someone on Reddit just a week ago that there was absolutely no new content and the game was boring. Are you saying they were wrong ? They were extremely sure of it...

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

My strangest is probably an unidentified transponder way out on the top edge of hawkings gap, didn’t have the time to decode it ☹️

[@AceStrife]

Finally the game has voice acted lore and feels more alive.. Can only wonder how long it's going to take until the active NPCs get voice acted.. And this heavily reminds me of Dead Space.. minus the bodies mutating into monstrosities and reanimating, killing everyone.

[@EvilijoUK]

Well, it seems like it doesn't work for me, done exactly like Ant said, in fact couple times, but the generation ship doesn't pop up on scanner.

I'm curious as to where this Asteroid can be found if it was there last destination? Curiosity killed the cat, but it has the potential answering some mysteries regarding the Mycoid Virus, the Thargoids or the Guardians.

Wow....that was one of the saddest videos I've ever seen for ED. I can only image what kind of hopelessness that would be out in the black and nothing can be done about it.

One of the cargo containers has a "Grant/Taylor" tag on it...Subtle nod to Grant/Naylor?

for some odd reason my interest in the game has gone way up in the past few days. io have a question id like to ask. yesterday I tried to get to jameson memorial it said I could not. I'm 100% I'm a kickstarter because I have the kickstarter digital art thing I can DL from my account page on the kickstarter rewards,. so why do I not have the permit? bought ED early 2014.

wow, loving all these new discoverys lately... off to take a look now :)

I hope hope hope they put a giant dead space Easter egg in this game. For instance, they could have a generation ship and call it 'ishimura'. If you scan it, it explains of a discovered marker and matters progressively get worse ...

My lord how many times has he said generation ship like every 10 seconds GENERATION SHIP GENERATION SHIP XD

Reminds me of the novel "Space Doctor" by Lee Correy. Worth a read if you like classic scifi books.
