JOE DANGER 3 IS REAL
Maybe a minor thing but it really annoys me. I was under the impression Sean said those names where actual player discoveries being shown...
He probably did.
He probably lied as well.
People need to stop referring to it as traditional multiplayer.
If NMS only simply allows you to see someone else, and nothing else, it may not be traditional MP code in the usual places or format.
Basically, you have to figure out if your Coordinates, XYZ, are being transmitted to NMS servers. You also have to figure out if it's in real time or just periodic.
Chances are, there are no ships involved either. So, you'd both probably wouldn't appear until you were out of your ship and on foot.
So, basically, the most basic data that only NEEDS to be transmitted is your X, Y, Z coordinates and when you are on-foot, a simple 0 or 1 modifier. That's the data I would search for.

Eurogamer said:"And as they go, they're upgrading their ship, they're upgrading their weapons, they're upgrading their suit. And they need to do that because they're very vulnerable, they will be attacked by AI, potentially - very rarely - other players, things like that, if they cross paths with them. There's space combat, there's combat on the ground, there's trading if you want to do that, mining resources and stuff, there's exploring if you want to do that.
It's non traditional in the sense that it doesn't exist?People need to stop referring to it as traditional multiplayer.

But isn't it true that when someone else discovers it, it can be renamed?I believe someone did check that and couldn't find any data being transmitted, except for the discoveries... Another GAFer can't remember the name

Did the walkers make it into the game in the end?
But surely in a game of this size with this many players you would assume there are some text and / or visual clues (leftover)? And so far there are none.
Someone should try to monitor network activity honestly, that would be the best proof.

You're blowing my mind right nowIt's there, you just can't see it.

I packet captured my PS4. When the servers are online, no player movement data is sent to servers, either in space or planet side. It simply doesn't transmit where you are, or any world sharing information.
It does transmit your Discovers, and a diary of planets you have visited. I imagine that is for the Easter eggs.
Also, if you press 'OPTIONS' it pauses the entire game world, including AI (watch creatures and ships stop) and *time*. Planets stop moving and time stops passing when in OPTIONS. This is *not* a multiplayer game.

You people are like flat earth conspirators at this point. You can pause the game. This means everyones instance of the universe will be different from each other due to the rotations of planets and every other moving object in the game being in different positions.
Let's move on from the multiplayer conversation. I'd prefer to read more about the data mined findings than see this thread derailed and locked.
LmaoI just did some of my own personal data mining and discovered that Sean Murray is an anagram of A Merry Anus.
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
Is mp-gate a real word that came out of someone's mouth? lmaoIf this turns into yet another mp-gate thread this thread will not last long
In the MP thread, someone claimed they datamined a laser sword and a Hoverboard. Has anyone found their models?

Really? How much work would that be? RealisticallyI've checked there is no sending of your XYZ anywhere.
Either way I believe you can mod it into the game.

Bruh.I just did some of my own personal data mining and discovered that Sean Murray is an anagram of A Merry Anus.

There would be something left over. If there is nothing at all then they just lied about it the entire time.

I mean it's just discussion on the game content-gate for sfv was talked about to death
Really? How much work would that be? Realistically
I'd say if we can get MBIN's fully figured out. Possibly find out how the scripts are done and find a way to stop using the ones in the exe, and direct it somewhere else.
It's possible that the game may just upload your coodinates whenever you do an Atlas upload of your discoveries while on foot outside of your ship.
And ONLY at that time. As in, not in constant real time.
If this player-meeting feature is actually in the game, maybe we can only see a momentary glimpse of someone right after they upload a discovery. They might appear to be just a statue or maybe a scripted sequence that activates at that location at the time of your upload. Something like that, but not in real time.
I'm just guessing. But I'm thinking the only time data is transferred to NMS servers is when you upload discoveries. So, that's really the only time coordinates would be uploaded too.
Did the two streamers who met on the same planet try to do an Atlas upload on foot at the time they were there together?
That's something to maybe test. On the same planet, outside of their ships, upload a discovery and see if either of them appears, even if for a just a couple seconds.
Is there any info in the code that points to mod support of any kind? Does it look easily moddable at all?
Um, I'm gonna go ahead and say that's pretty much impossible. The game doesn't use any type of external scripting, so there's no way to hook into the engine externally, I doubt it's a full Unity engine honestly as there's no signs to Mono / .NET, if there were there could be a slim chance, but it doesn't seem like it.
