Greetings CMDRs I dont know if this is the right thread but its about the guardians so im part of a club known as elite dangerous club on the xbox one and about 1hr ago a cmdr by the name of ( nstor1) posted some screenshots of tree_like plants "lots of them together maybe 10+" whilst searching for the new guardian sites this is not the barnacles or the fungal life already known about but a tree_like organic structure with circular red tops and yellowish branches 'tops look like brains' the system is "IC 2391 sector ze-a d101 c" planet c3a. Coordinates are "11.4262 -48.4192" I have searched the forums and cannot find anything else like this being discussed and I am unfortunately near the core so I cant investigate myself but it seems strange that he found it in a system marked for searching. If this indeed is a first then there could be something more to this planet hope this helps..
Thankyou for your time CMDRs o7

those would appear to be newly discovered organic content that was introduced in 2.2. But it is a significant find nethertheless.

- - - Updated - - -

It was a cluster of containers -.-

moving around coords doing a quick sweep. Will move on to other sets of coords after.

I do want to remind people, just cause i found nothing here does not mean the coords are wrong, i could be on the wrong planet.

Also, what is the margin of error with these calculated coordinates?

Might need some tweakage
 
FWIW, the Phloem Excretion will give you Very Rare materials.
1. You chop the tree.
2. Some rare materials drop from it.
3. You fly to the distant system to make a bargain.
4 ???
5. A Space Ent cruiser intercepts you from witchspace and kicks your butt!

I'm at those coords on C3 A (PC version) and I see nowt. Got a nice screenshot of C3 rising though so not a total loss. It made a nice break from zipping around C3.

Wrong coordinates on your screenshot.

Went to the Coords for the Plants. I did 11.4 top, -48.4 bottom: no luck. Then -48.4 top, 11.4 bottom: no luck, however I can see the same star constellation on the horizon and and Galaxy arm. so its right place not quite right coords maybe?

Took a screenshot, its tilted at an angle compared to the original image but it is the same

Submit the trees on the passanger mission 2.3 submission thread for destinations it might get added in.
 
Nothing found after preliminary sweep. Took a picture 6km up from coords, feel free to inspect, see if i missed something. Nothing else on SRV scanner. I will comment that these coords are near a canyon system, so allowing margin of error there could be something nearby.

Original Ruin system is 78 Degrees above the horizon at coords
The other three systems are between 78 and 83 degrees above the horizon at coords

had a look, couldnt find anything at all, although its completely pitch black here, found another pic (which i cant seem to post a working link to) that showed coords as well

looks like a misplaced "-" has sent me to the other side of the planet :p

correct coords are
11.4262
48.4192

had to go scoop a sun, on way back now to see these for myself

edit: just arrived at the coordinates and found the tree's there isnt just a few looks like there are hundreds across quite a large area

edit 2: some of the tree's can be targeted, they have something called "cordycep growth" on them, can be shot up and picked up, although cant find in srv cargo or materials

edit 3: never mind, when shot off they turn into other materials, so far found 3 different things on the tree's
cordycep growth - which turns to nickel when shot off
mussidaen seed pod - which turns to molybdenum
phloem excretion - which turns to ruthenium

came in over 25.555, 7.75 and game crashed. Haven't had any crashes up till this point so maybe this means something

Also, where are the game logs located?

Most likely has been posted before but I will do another one.
I feel one sure fire way to pinpoint the ruins will be from the soft chittering noise the ruins site makes when within 8km of the sites.

What I've found about the site:

Chittering becomes notable around 7.5km up and from the site
[video=youtube_share;kE1Cup5JAKI]https://youtu.be/kE1Cup5JAKI[/video]

Draw distance: Ideally 3km up and 5km away
[video=youtube_share;m6fnlaArqrg]https://youtu.be/m6fnlaArqrg[/video]


So if you find yourself on the surface of a planet and you hear that noise, stop immediately and starting scouring in an 7km radius around your location!

Good Hunting

So not -48. On my way to confirm

CONFIRMED!

Also heading to check this out, so excited. Can't wait to add this site to the geyser and fumarole spreadsheet
 
Back again before bed with a new theory on potential locations for ruin sites on planets...

If anyone can add this theory to a fancy compass overlay with all the bearings, that would be amazing!

So, here it is:

http://i.imgur.com/NBBHU55.jpg

If anyone can put a proper compass over that, and apply my theory to it, we might have something in the way of co-ordinates.

You'll notice the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the image - I think these could be, based on their positions and proximity:

1: Synuefe ZL-J D10-119 11 B

2: Synuefe XO-P C22-17 D 1

3: IC 2391 Sector GW-V b2-4 (planet: ???)

4: IC 2391 Sector ZE-A d101 (planet: ???)

The reason I include the IC 2391 Sector systems is because, if there are 4 sites in 4 systems, then perhaps my anti-clockwise hypothesis, below, may not be entirely accurate - at least, not for all planets. Other criteria may apply, such as Axial Tilt that is negative (minus) - so check those out and see if any are similar the Ancient Ruins we already know of.

AGAIN - if anyone can apply a latitude/longitude compass overlay to the ruins and get accurate co-ordinates based on my theory, we could be on to something - all 4 of these co-ordinates on all planets could be done in a day or two EASY - we just need to know the most accurate latitude/longitude numbers from my image as most of it was guess work in paint.

Thanks all, see you tomorrow!

C22-17 D 1 [-10;7.5] is unlikely to contain a ruin. aside from tiny craters the area is flat. The only high signature my SRV could pick up was a datapoint at [-10.5962;7.715].
Proceeding with next set(also, if I am using your compass wrong, please tell me(axial tilt of D 1 is -130.2)

During the 24 hour stream they told us there was a reason behind the generation of the organic structures. IT seems fungal is tied to human activity around bases and so forth are where they seem to be found, what if these trees are tied to ancient ruin sites. Perhaps there are some around the original and perhaps that would mean that on that planet there will be ruins to find.

Can now confirm, the coords given are incorrect, it's 48.4192, no "-"

I agree whole heartedly, i think we need to focus on this area

THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AS YOU APPROACH!

Starting to hit the news... kudos to all the CMDR's who are mentioned in the article.

Yeah i landed there and only found in the -17 range a data package and some metal aloys... no ruins... i have a novel idea like some have said if we group together and tackle a planet at a time in big swarms we could tackle planets better and faster... from what i understand they had several cmdrs and it took them 7 days to find it (correct me if i am wrong)... if the community as a whole tackled the planet as a cohesive group we could work together to find them faster... i also think by tues there will be more hints from fdev if we dont find them first...

Have we scoured that little canyon next to that crater, that is what the canyon on the original site looked like, a huge crater with a thin have circle of red that was the discolored canyons.
I really feel like this may be the planet. I'll be spending quite a bit of time out there tonight
About 3 jumps away now
