Updated Nimbatus Lore Summary (Spoilers!)

Warning:

This post spoils potential future updates of Nimbatus. If you wish to discover this for yourself, do not read this post!

Anyway, I while back I made a post about what I thought the future lore of Nimbatus is. Since then, several other users, and even the devs themselves, have contributed information about the potential future lore of Nimbatus. Please note that anything I say here is completely debatable and should not be seen as fact. None of Nimbatus’s lore is completely certain, even by the Dev Team. Either way, here’s the current lore as per my understanding.

Firstly, it is apparent that the galaxy is broken into several factions, competing for dominance. You are likely a part of your own faction. Meanwhile, the faction which inhabits all of the planets available are the “corp”. From several loading hints, it is obvious that the corp is into very shaddy buisness, of which you are often responsible for cleaning up. The corp is responsible for the transmitters found on planets, as well as the ground based sentry turrets and cannon bois. They also seem to love spamming them wherever they leave bio waste.

The corp is a very dominant force in the galaxy because if the transmitters they leave on their planets. Said transmitters are responsible for interfering with enemy faction equipment (Incuding your own!) to make sure they can keep a hold on their planet. As you know, all planets have a transmitter effect which will often interfeer with your drone.

However, a new discovery has recently been discovered. The corp may not exclusively place down the transmitters, turrets and cannon bois you see in game. On some of the Nimbatus promotional footage, a large transmitter building can be seen surrounded by a city scape. This suggests the corp is also responsible for several much larger installations which are yet to be seen ingame, but will probably be seen in the future.

The second part of the lore revolves around the Nimbatus’s role. As is stated in loading hints, the Nimbatus is the largest mobile drone factory ever constructed. Your faction seems to be environmentally minded, and many, if not all your missions will revolve around some sort of environmental sustainability. It is likely that your faction mainly focuses on the corp, as the corp is responsible for a lot of environmental damage, in the form of polluting bio barrels or other endeavours.

What is also important is that it is likely the corp and whomever is responsible for the Nimbatus are not the only factions. It is very likely that in the future, there will be several playable factions of which you can play as, and potentially aquire specialised drone parts should you play as one of said factions.

This summarises Nimbatuses lore to-date, I’ll update this post soon, with some images. If you have any contributions, please comment below. Thanks!

I believe that the faction you currently play as is a rival corporation, and the reason why you are cleaning up bio barrels and keeping animal populations in check are because, your corporation buys, teraforms, mines, then sells planets, and then they are sabotaging the corps bio barell planets is to get rid of their unrefined meterial? Maybe bio barbells are some liquid that can be refined into more valuable things. Point is you’re in cutthroat competition and you’re fighting tooth and nail to gain the upper hand against the rival corporation(s).

Meh, I think this “guns blazing, shoot first, ask questions latter” stigma is largely player driven, and not true to what Nimbatus is actually about.

plus, I’m using only evidence the game provides, not what the community thinks.

The game doesn't exactly have proper lore yet. But like Micha said, The lore currently is like factions fighting for area. These being the Corp, Pirates and possibly some other ones, And your task is to keep the fighting factions from ruining planet ecosystems and such.
