Finally uploaded, you've got ~11 minutes of barnacle recording in there and some close ups. Didn't record the spikes or watched them from close though. The meta alloys spawn specifically from those two spikes, everytime.

I had my shields up (until they got destroyed by the unknown damage) also ramming doesn't damage modules afaik

Definitely odd then. I'd say throw the shadowplay footage up on youtube and lets see if anyone else comes forward about unexpected damage from an unknown source while in the vicinity of a barnacle.
 
I don't know if this is a common bug or not but when I was at the barnacle site I suddenly received module damage on everything after a while. And it wasn't even slowly dealing damage. I also have a recording of it thanks to shadowplay, but before I go trough the trouble of uploading it I wanna know if it's a known bug or something to do with the barnacle. I also had no cargo with me or didn't use silent running and was standing still so heat and corrosion are out of question.

Please share. I've been having issues with my altitude meter since I picked up an MA, I keep 'landing' hundreds of meters above the ground.

I spent some time at the barnacle in Mobius earlier. It might be a normal flight mechanic, but when I left the site I was scanned (assume by the barnacle) and then shortly after my ship engines all switched off and i'm frozen looking down on the site. Then I hear it singing to me, similar noises to the UA. I haven't done much planet based stuff so is this normal or is it the barnacle? I was carrying a meta alloy but no UA. It happened several times and I could restart my engines after a pause.

Anyone else seen this or similar?
 
After seeing the screenshots - I'm not upset. I was flying too high, looking for something a bit bigger. Ah well, off to take a close look so I can search elsewhere. We need to find more locations!!!!
 
I can't believe it, I'm so angry right now. I spent 65 million hours playing in Super Special Oyster Mode and absolutely no Barnacles.

I can't believe after all this time I should've been actually playing the game.

*ragequits*

Lol I'd rep you but I already did earlier. Virtual plus one then.

I was sitting very close to one and my SRV hull instantly dropped to 7%... thought it was a bug... but I'm not sure.
 
Just to confirm again... 40km away from the Barnacle, the anaconda crashed...

In fact 2 anacondas... :):):) ? https://www.flickr.com/photos/elitedangerousbrasil/24298634611/in/pool-elitedangerousbrasil
