I’m doubt I was the first literal beacon on Phem because I had to run to the location and others would have placed campfires. But, know I was close since I had early access and was there the second the servers were online. The beacon was definitely the first capital on Phem and more than likely the game. I think the time was 8/16/2018 @ 2:18 pm PST (based on when the screenshot was taken). I had removed the beacon once we fully established on Biitula but grabbed the spot again because I want to put up some monument one day.
I don’t have a screenshot of the Biitula capital but we were it for sure and very likely the first beacon because we were rushing to get on the planets like many others. The beacons there were probably reconfigured so I lost oldest plot I am sure.
At that point in the game many of us where just playing to establish and not thinking about keeping a beacon alive so you have the oldest plot or beacon. This was before buffers and many other settlement changes.
I started on PlayStation early access so the oldest Beacon that I know of is Illuminoorti build on Biitula which I think is Sola’s that I’ve seen up still to this day or @Kralith pyramid Build on Circa maybe is old too
Hi, I’m pretty sure that my Chateau Excelsior beacon was started a few days after the game came out on Steam and I;ve been slowly adding to it ever since .
Thank you @Redlotus
I think it’s nice that so many players like it.
It has a special meaning for me because I built it together with my sister. That’s why I’m not planning to remove the build.
I didn’t even realise the game got released until then, I was following it for a while before but missed launch for PlayStation, I think it was only a week or 2 later I noticed (can’t remember when it got released) but I spent about 1 month in the same area until I realised how to travel to other worlds lol, I didn’t want to lose my base haha wasn’t until I met someone (so sorry I’ve forgot your name) who helped build me a portal to Finata where I met the legend @Hashmalash
This was me when I first played. A buddy and I had @Soju-VB come visit us and set up a portal to the the Black and Blue world which then linked to TNT … and wow …did the game forever change for me.
I’ve bought the game at release in 2018 on ps4 and build a temple on Sorissi its called Nozkharath temple. A friend of mine told me that is keeping the beacon alive. I used to play on PS4 but unfortunately I don’t have it anymore. Still waiting for steam sale to rebought the game on pc. If anyone could post a picture of it, that would be nice !! I loved the game, cant wait to return to it !!
Your temple is still there, but the portals recently ran out, they have been down at least a week so it’s tricky to reach the settlement. Here’s some screenshots:
