This guy deserved a reward Unknown Worlds. Give it to him!

One of our streamers spotted something interesting in the P.R.A.W.N Bay inside the Aurora. There was a Bulkhead door on a small broken catwalk near the roof. Scattered around the base were a bunch of movable boxes under it. He spent about a half hour climbing these precariously stacked boxes (wasting almost all his batteries, almost dying of starvation/dehydration, and taking a LOT of fall damage)only to walk through the fire like a demigod to a disappointing static door that can't open. He was hunting for easter eggs and accomplished something cool and probably thought impossible. Come on Unknown Worlds. Give him some kind of reward.

Here's the link to the video right before he finally did it.

    hehe he did work pretty hard to get all the way up there. the fact that the fire on that platform doesnt even damage him proves this place isnt intended for players to go there but it was pretty fun to watch!

    Gamedevelopers always watch in horror when they see people playtest and break their carefully planned and designed level layouts :D

    Case and point and I'm not even sorry

    When I was doing a programming course at college, we had to design and make a simple 2D platformer game. I got my friend to playtest it...he'd find a way to break it or get where he shouldn't. Every. Single. Time.

    I actually climbed up there too and was very disapointed to find nothing after 40 minutes of stacking boxes and draining battries. I would be very surprised if they didn't put something of value in it at some point of developement.

    It should be two broken pieces of the Nutrient Block making machine.
    Or coffee, for use in the coffee machine.

    Absolutely agree with you there. Nutrient blocks are probably the most precious resources I can find. I never even eat them because they're irreplaceable.

    100% agree. But he should be given some kind of reward for getting up there lol

    Where's my reward? I spotted this easily 3 months ago, and I even stacked boxes to get up there. Man, too many people trying to get rewards for things people have done WAY earlier while not recording :/ In more detail, some time in September, I saw the door and used freecam to peek inside. As I expected, nothing was inside the room. To my defeat, I continued my quest around the Aurora. Later, with the release of the Precursor update, I went back in there, and because freecam has no collision, I stacked boxes to see if it actually existed. I was hyped when I could walk up there, but was quite pissed when the door was "locked." All of the people who have tried to get up there deserve some sort of easter egg, like a secret poster or piece of technology that can be found on an Alterra version of the Precursor's Ion Crystal podium, and not listed anywhere to keep the secrecy.

    You guys DO realize that the teleport and spawn commands work just fine to bump you past these things, right? That, and "secrets" in SP games aren't, unless they're hidden so well that zero people ever find them? And rewards for supposed-to-be-impossible things don't really make sense? And the Aurora is not a super-complex spaceship, it's just a huge shell of model/tecture, surrounding mostly nothing, with a little bit of explorable stuff in the front/middle?

    Because I do not think that many people realize any of those things.

    Well, I'm not saying he deserves something unique or special. Besides, he did it while live streaming, and managed to make it somewhat entertaining. He didn't lose his viewers at least, and he got up there without using any cheats, plus made a funny joke about the fire. Again, though, not saying he deserves something special just for him. I'm saying he deserved some kind of reward.

    Of course that's true. That doesn't mean the people accomplish the thought impossible without cheats don't deserve a reward.

    Can the party poopers be a little less party pooperish? It's still an accomplishment; perhaps done before, but only by a fraction of the player base.

    We should have a poll, just to see how many have actually stacked the boxes to make it up there.

    Anyone?
