OK i'm gonna say i thing that's important for the 2.2 search
it was a bit of a long read before so here's my new discovery after a long line of logic puzzle-ing;
There is a third new probe
thank the patch notes for this new info:
- Fixed a mysterious thing finding it's way into a cargo canister when being ejected.


and if you are interested in the full "short" version
its on page 19:)

What ever the Mysterious Thing is, they just had a problem with it regaining it's original shape when ejected. Instead of squid-like tentacle alien-whatsamajig-thingy, it popped out as a canister.

I spotted that one in the patch notes and I'm not sure it's a probe thingy.

I expect that when we find a ruin, there will be something to scoop. Something valuable, like a ruin version of Meta-Alloys.

Just a hunch.
 
the pics i posted 2 pages back.......are they relevant?....have you all seen the smiling green man at the crash site?.....

what i saw....new or old? (in terms of the carving/drawing)
 
- Fixed a mysterious thing finding it's way into a cargo canister when being ejected.
So ejecting the canister or the thing?
So do we have to feed something commodities?
Why do i feel another one of the throw one fo everything at AS n UP's all over again oh and the third PROBE, time to get a cargo hold full of rares again :D
should be fun now, not as tame as it was before.

i highly doubt it but for now i have my line of logic that its another "probe"

I've read your post on page 19, there surely is something but we cannot be sure it is another probe.

I fully agree. This is the "right" explanation for that line. But that means our "Mysterious thing" has its own 3d model then ;)

Reasonable.

we still cant throw away the possibility that there is a third probe that follows my line of logic and i'm currently trying to get an idea where it could be.
but if i keep on that line, its gonna be harder to find than the previous 2 generation's of probes the aliens sent to merope

on the other hand there could be something in the ruins too

i'm gonna think up something some possibility to get more things togethere

So a Can Burster. Like a chest burster but from a canister.

I'm leaving soon, I promise!

It took a VERY LONG TIME to find the first Barnacle, remember? I can bet it'll take the same time to find Ruins or mysterious things as well...

Please don't state things so strongly ("my new discovery", "There is a new probe") until we have in-game proof. Otherwise people are going to get confused about exactly what has been found and what is theorised.
 
Off-topic here, but what ship would be the best suited to hunt down thargoids in? I'm thinking AspX, but it's not the best in combat (in case we encounter their ships). What do you guys think?

I have been looking at the image of the alien surface 'tower' (shown in the trailer and on the OP) and think that the middle circled object looks like a planetary nebula. Cross-checking with the blue-coloured nebulae local to Sol in https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...-List-of-(real)-Nebulae-and-Galaxies-in-Elite there are several candidates (distances are from Sol):
Ghost of Jupiter (1.4 KLY)
Blinking (2.0 KLY)
Eight Burst (2.1 KLY)
Fetus (2.9 KLY)
Red Spider (2.9 KLY)
NGC 2438 (3.1 KLY)
Bug (3.4 KLY)
Another possibility is that it might be the Pleiades, since this nebula is now blue - maybe worth a flight away from the Pleiades in a direction keeping Andromeda behind you as well?
 
So a Can Burster. Like a chest burster but from a canister.

For your delectation:

You've mentioned it, I have to...

Just remember - if you see it - Don't touch it!!!
