I know there will be someone reading this going “Lol, nah fuck ‘em”.
I hadn’t played since before the new update*. After battling through fixing my inventories, I went to the Nexus to see what’s new. Saw someone starting a new mission, community research at 82%, fuck it I’ll pitch in. Notice the dude is a C-tier, in the starter ship. The mission takes us to an extreme ice planet to battle sentinels, fuck.
Of course all I see in the alerts are “<playername> died from hypothermia.” over and over again. They must’ve spawned a way from their ship because they kept lemming-ing back and forth, freezing to death. I eventually caught up with them in the shelter of one of the mission buildings. So gave them a shitload of batteries, sodium… then they’re off. Transferring inventory to someone running about like a headless chicken is hard.
I followed them all the way to their ship, topping them up with elements whenever their low alerts started. No idea if they even knew I was there haha. But after putting so many hours in, struggling to find things to do, I have a purpose… hazard protection angel for new players.
I could just imagine them confused, panicking, then me jetting off to complete the mission leaving them stranded on a random extreme ice planet. Not today!
*”Now you can see both inventories at once!”,
“But I can only see half of each? Instead of flicking between them, I’m now endlessly scrolling and missing things in two inventories?”
“…. but, both at once!”
I dislike this redesign element so much.
