Not home atm but I think they either went from orange to Blue with stripes with puppy noses or blue with stripes to orange with more lizardy features
I forget which way they changed, I don’t discriminate against my people
Iirc, if you’re in uncharted systems, your freighter crew become the anomaly staff members or smth lol
I just see “Honorable Fleet Master” and “Guy Who Sits in My Chair”
also you just broke a server rule.
I’m anomaly right now but gek day will be soon
😮 Not again... I always feels like I'm getting pulled into the principles office when I get that "Private Discussion" pop up...
What was it, so I can remove the evidence?
The fact that I can only spin my chair beside the captain, but there’s a seat UPSTAIRS will never not be sad
they should give you a captian's chair to sit in tbh
why cant you sit in spinnable chairs tho
Just one day of gek and see
I am currently working on a captian's quaters on my freighter
Rule #5, Bot Abuse. You’re abusing the Korvax lmao
😂
All is right with the world
Hoo boy
You can sit in the spinny chairs I think, they just don’t spin when you sit in them, right?
Extreme weather with no element protection is rough
Might wanna bring sunscreen
Especially on Survival
Me with hazard protection turned off in my saves xD
what SPF do I need for 305 celcius?
Should be able to sit AND spin the chair (while in it)
Extreme world? No problem
Smh 😤
the faster you click the faster you spin
Although I can still get harmed by these new environmental hazards
Like 50 idk we should ask a dermatologist
at least it looks cool
This is big brain
Me as Survival exploring Extreme worlds: "Warning, Hazard Protection Unit Broke due to Enviormental Damage.... Life Support Falling... Life Support Low."
I love it
I had to start a new save 3 times before I got going this time around
havent played for years
first planet, extreme cold
second planet extreme fire
You’re relying on your exosuit
Nothing would save normal bodily flesh at those temperatures
third planet extreme radiation
Your First Planet always has some Extreme Weather of some kind
barely managed the radiation
Well, not Extreme...
other 2 were rough
Oh how do modules usually end up getting damaged? Is it just me forgetting to throw ion batteries in my env shields and the small bits damage adding up until it cracks one of my life supports?
meh radation is yummy
uranium is very tasty too
If you play on Normal, they basically NEVER break... On survival, they can break if they run out or if you take damage from something like a Hazard Plant or Sentinel
indeed brother
yummm
I must treat my exosuit like army equipment because holy crap I feel like I’m pretty religious about keeping my environment shields up but my life support broke like 3 times last weekend
Ufff
you know you can get upgrades for that right?
also batteries are also good at keeping those evniormental shields up
I’ve got like 1-2 upgrades for the thing itself, then just an S class of every environment type
What’s funny is the radiation measure doesn’t make any sense, for “exposure” since that has to be expressed as an intensity/time,
I asked my husband about it since he’s a radiologist and he has to know those things
So it would need to be Sv/hr, Rem/hr, or R/hr (R=Roentgens). Rad just isn’t descriptive enough
Then again Tox is completely made up😁
Rad, Toxic, Heat, Cold
you know what NMS should allow us to do? They should let us take over and own space stations
I assumed toxin is just like, the atmosphere being sulphuric or something
Again without an exposure over time, it likely doesn’t mean a lot
Radiation in Games is very fast acting 😛
Well radiation is kinda funny in that sense, similar to the Fallout games it’s treated more like an airborne toxin for gameplay purposes rather than actual radiation
I mean, getting to Airless planets with Toxic or Radiation... Like... How?!
In Fallout the RadAway item is an IV bag. Realistically you’d be hooked up to that disgusting fluid, and it flushes your entire immune system.
So basically double bucket for like 2 days, but because video game it’s like a Rad-Be-Gone caprisun
But that’s why I asked
I said “is this really high” and he said, well depends on how well protected your (mythical) character is (like shielded) and how long you sat around (which is why it’s better to express the dose/time)
Rad-be-gone Caprisun made me laugh out loud 😂
YOU CAN JUST SUCK DOWN LIKE THREE OF EM
what
Never played Fallout, games with gore just don’t appeal to me
this taken out of context sounds strange
Eh, that's nothing... Skyrim Chosen chug down 35 cheese wheels during a small encounter 😂

hol on a second I gotta shove 42 wheels of cheese and 27 beers into my mouth
Greetings Traveller!
20 hp
I had a Skyrim mod, let me make and unmake cheese wheels with odd bits of cheese pieces, was great
xD
Not my mod just one I used
Cheese Jigsaw
Is the new terrain just in purple systems or also in all unexplored systems?
yes
Purple
Piloting a minotaur under water gives me subnautica vibes.
No Man’s Rim does not sound good
What’s new about it? I just notice new things like plants and stuff
Assets might change on systems outside purple stars
Man I am so glad I rerolled for a Resurgent. This thing looks so cool when it warps in
Alr, thanks. Hunting for a planet to call home
piloting a minotaur in first person gives me semi-truck hydroplaning without wheels vibes
Oh they definitely have
no, no it does not
The Minotaur is so much cooler in first person but it handles really weird on KB+M
No Man's Sky
Light No Fire
Light Man's Fire
No No Sky
Crazy terrains
It feels like the exocraft are constantly fighting you
Oh like the way new icy worlds look
It's like trying to drive a Minecraft pig
I’ve noticed I do the GTA V thing where I keep the controller nearby for piloting vehicles, but mostly use KBM
That's a toxic planet
No No Sky gave me a good chuckle lmao
Light sky fire
nah bruh I'm going to light a fire
Light no man
Consuela in nms
drive
Fires of Raven ending?
pretty
Mountain
Oooh that’s NOICE
Venice, but frozen and in NMS without people lol
Now use your Terrain Tool to carve a Gek Face into it
Blue and pink tree
Ok
Mount Gekmoore
nah bruh it would be more sandy
Nothing but plains are also possible
Star Trek TOS soundstage be like
That’d be a good biodome farm world ngl
Hmm, getting stuck in teleporters, anyone else having this issue? Was fine all day and I don't usually have long loading times

All my deserts have plants so far lol
that's more like it
Ope nevermind, just unusually long loading time.
Might be worth rebooting + verifying integrity
Weird.
Oh gotcha
only problem is that I hate sand
One of the variation looks like hawaii
Yea I rebooted several times, guess I just gotta be a more patient Gek
Tbf I rarely get more than 10 seconds load lol
Geklan wheel, Geklan get stuck in wormhole for 25 seconds
Make sure to disable pvp + mp so it doesn't break quests
I have had a few hangs, but most have been weird things. Like getting stuck in menus such as inventory or other stuff
Getting a teleporter hang is not new, for me it’s rare but can happen at any time
Hawaii....Tahiti!?!?! oh no I'm getting flashbacks
I see your Gavlan reference and invite you too look at my pfp, fine person of culture
? what quests
I found a cool rattlesnake tree on one of my old desert planets with a base the other day
Most things can break if mp is on since they've afaik never not neglected mp stability
tahiti is a magical place
story ones
NNNNOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RDR2 flashbacks (goated game btw)
Did you find that planet in a purple system?
Hawaii has mountains
That has no mountains
I doubt mp will ever get more stable unfortunately
Yellow
eh it was ok, very overrated imo
Cool. I have a reason to leave the purple systems now. Still a planet type I haven't found yet.
oops. Turns out that I can jump off my freighter lmao
there are no mountians in Baa-sing-sa
I read "Hawaii has no mountains" for a second lol

my brother once fell off a frigate and landed down on a planet's surface
I jumped off one of my frigates and reloaded my save once I started dying because I got scared.
ayy
Honestly, i'm still pleasantly surprise to constantly finding new terrains
Rite of Passage honestly lmao
Ngl I wish there was a way to fly solar ships without them spreading their "wings" because they look cool without the transformation.
One particular planet i took like 8 screenshots of it
i think its funny that people call the exosuit a spacesuit when being in space with it will kill you in a matter of seconds
Would be cool if one of the quick menu options was to “deploy” the sails, I agree!
I did that before.
Just to see what would happen.
can I get this cool lighting for my base or freighter
I am thinking I might fall from my frigate to a planet doing some HD2 or ODST stuff cause I can
Luckily, my life support had good upgrades, and I had lots of oxygen.
that would be dope but I don't think so
I feel like this is very similar to jumping onto a campfire in a new game you play tbh
One particular planet i took likke 8 screenshots on one spot
I know you can kind of match the red lighting that the Pirate Dreadnought has
It took me several minutes to reach the ground, and much of that time was without oxygen.
Just 8? Rookie numbers xD
I take so many screenshots omg
I am working on getting that number up
what happens if you jump off a freighter in deep space? do you fall and then just start floating?
You fall towards the nearest planet, I think
ah
i hate when this happens
ODST style
i mean i guess technically it would realistically look like youre falling still even if you left the field of artificial gravity, given that theres no drag in space to slow you down or anything
I get the chunks too, I’m on PS5
but technically if were being realistic, artificial gravity is only possible with a centrifuge of some kind
when will we be able to go full out titanfall in the minotaur
What’s worse for me, is it’ll look like I’m entering atmo over water and it’ll change to where there’s land and maybe just a little water which sucks because I’m doing fishing, filling out the whole list
i mean that it looks so green and blue water but a dry mess when u land 😭
And the last update/patch added in this horrible camera shake, like wtf, I hate it!
I hate when entering a planet and the earth looks flat, then a mountain the size of everrest spawns in right in front of me
especially funny when you can see it from space
This was me in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Enjoyed the photo mode more than the game and my folder was just “Mmm one with this filter, this filter, no DoF, and one in black and white”
its funny bc gas giants are closer to the size of actual rocky planets and planets are closer to the size of moons
flat earth in nms
moons are closer to the size of large asteroids
The Flat Earth Society has members all around the globe.
imagine being a flat worlder in nms
flat earth on the back of a gek
Ugh I had your water problem too, Ech0. Every time I want water, LAND just appears
opposite for me
smh
Turns what looked like a whole basin into a bunch of tiny puddles and rivers
oh... reset freighter base doesnt return it to how it was with the outside walkways there... welp
Which makes getting around hilly terrain even more of a pain in the butt
I think it's hilarious when you find a small puddle on Planets like 100x100 meters and it just have 7 different species of fish in it 😂
or when i think its water but its blue ground
i mean…theyre part of your freighter base
🔥🔥🔥 whew
yeah...
Something I just thought about
I’d REALLY appreciate if the game wouldn’t spawn a sentinel dreadnaught HALF in atmosphere
drop wanted level below 5 before heading out to your ship and to space
So midway through my strafing run it just disappears and I’m continually assailed by the invisible turrets
im giving someone permission to spam ping or spam dm me whenever the solar ship fabricator glitch is patched btw
there's easier ways to spawn it intentionally if you wish
Walkers are bugged atm so they don’t spawn. You just get stuck at 5
Frozen Fish Section
aye, and i was saying that if you don't want to have to deal with sentinel freighter upon leaving to space, drop wanted level to below 5 at least
I had that happen, and just landed immediately when it said dispatching interceptors lol
If I fiddle around for a while with my cloak I can eventually get them off but just flying away is usually a solution. Just some planets have more atmosphere than others so if you feel ambitious, you might get stopped by funny bug lol
Nice, well i took 8 screenshots of different angle
And it was fine, the wanted thing expired when I landed
“Eh screw it I’ll fight this one”
Dreadnaught disappears
“On second thought…”
It’s funny, one time I had just enough cloak to run out before the search timer
Pretty clouds
Can you tame flying/burrowing creatures? If so how?
But then when I reactivated the cloak, the timer was lower
Love the solar reflection
Low flyers you can
Like butterflies and beetles
I found out flying creatures are split into “high flyers” and “low flyers” and we can only tame the latter.
But burrowers I dont think think we can

The creature in question looks like a diamond shape frame with a sphere in the middle and they are flying probably just above a building, they are low enough that I can jet pack up to them atleast
General rule, if it offers you up the dialog box to “offer food” you likely can adopt it too
Cooould be tamable, I think I’ve seen something similar. Kind of a lattice with an orb in the center

One day they're gonna put sentinels underwater. I do not look forward to this day
It’s pretty generous for the prompt coming up, should be able to look up at it and get it to trigger if you follow it long enough
Does anyone else want to drive freighters or is it just me? I feel like if enough people voiced it it would be added so I'm wondering if not many people care about that
Wish they’d leave us alone instead of hovering like angry bees
I don’t see why HG would add it
dive it where though?
Just drive it
While it’d be neat, I feel like it’s kinda like being able to “drive the battleship” in BF1942
That rock ribbon - that's oldschool NMS right there
Fly it around
I put a pic in media
I’d settle for being able to actually sit in a fancy Captain chair
favorite "first contact" system names: Tomato, Lust, and Porkin
It's such a breath of fresh air getting back to my save after completing expedition
YOU CAN SHOOT THE CANISTERS?!
Come on, tell me you would NOT want to fly something like this around
Yeah, it's handy when you need a shield recharge but your inventory is full
What would be the point tho

Always nice to see pre NEXT terrains back
What does this do? Is it a companion or smth?
I wonder if anyone has found the galaxy where I named every star system and every plant/rock/animal "tomato"
Release it 
Since they can’t really land on planets or anything, it would introduce a whole lot of headaches for very little actual payoff. Can’t blame a Traveller for dreaming tho
There is no point, it's just fun
Oh is it going to trigger a fight?
To be fair
Just before the worlds update people said that there would be no point to gas giants
Just a neat fish. Is there an aquarium we can build in our bases to store it?
And then they added them, and they're fun!
What grass colour?
Things don't need to have a point, or you can add a point to them like with the gas giants
I hope they'll fix the walker bug soon. Rather annoying that I had to walk all the way back to my ship
OH
||yes||
Release it into the water. You'll see.
I had a base on a white-peach grass world that’s now more of a tan brown (yuck)
unlocks:
I’ll do it later. I don’t wanna fight rn
Just summon your ship
ye
I can't, the game still thinks I'm in combat
Just 1 shot it
just dont get rid of it 🙂
A cool jellyfish companion would’ve been very cool though
We have one from expedition iirc
The jagged rocks especially bring me back 🥰
I caught a second one, that’s why I was asking xD
I won’t get rid of it
Oh true I guess I never hatched it lol
I will say gas giants are just another planet, which already exist in the game. They just made it Yuge™
Making freighters into actual vehicles requires them to have handling, they need to be unable to block stations, etc
Tbh if it was aquatic, we never had much to do in the water before
This town ain't big enough for the one of me
I got around this by hiding in water and spamming my cloak until 0% about 2-3 times but ugh, I feel you
Question, did Worlds part 1 change the color pallete of the game or am I just seeing things?
They changed the way lighting works
Gas giants can be risky as hell
I’m glad I have very relaxed settings, because otherwise with all the gravity shenanigans and tornadoes it would be kinda insane lol
Well I'm not close to a body of water
I’ve seen people mention “the old look”. I don’t think you’re crazy
I've never had a problem with gas giants, then again I am in the VERY late game
A 90° hole in the ground works just as well as water
So doing that would actually have been slower than just hiking back to my ship
I once had someone in my crew complain about freighter living so I built this
No way they could POSSIBLY complain now
They have beds
I think most people are having issues with them because the expedition basically puts you on one completely naked, flying a crap hauler
Your crew have beds 💀

What a great captain
does the nms galatic atlas even do anything
Didn't have a problem with the expedition personally
glad the patches got my crew out of the damned floor
Check my screenshot in #nms-media
Need to complete a certain amount of milestones before you can summon the anomaly, and easily grinding Nanites isn’t second nature to most new players
Taken just a few minutes ago
Thanks!
It doesn't do much, but it does tell you the location of various galactic hubs
In euclid
That's fair
Personally I just did some missions for the nexus to get the nanites
i wish for ringed giants
It took me until this expedition to find out that the crap mods you get from shattered glass sell for like 400+ Nanites each
I was grinding missions back in Expedition 16 for the last like 1000 Nanites I needed for one of the milestones, and station quests only reward like 200 each
You can also refine 10 larval cores into like- 500 or 700 nanites which takes a few seconds
Little did I know I could’ve just pissed off the sentinels and cashed out in 10 mins lol
does it still get updated i mean like all the stuff seems to just be really old and there doesnt seem to be a way to submit pois
That’s how I usually do it, I put modules from my stock of shattered glass into expedition terminus
But sus packets will work as well
Rookie mistake
Glass // Glass // Glass
(Jk I understand it's harder for newer players to get some of the mechanics)
Gonna step on the glass
You can also refine shards, inverted mirrors and brains and the hearts too I think
Not sure
You can refine living slime into runnaway mould, which in turn can be refined into nanites
It’s bad enough refining mould, I can’t be bothered to do another step
If you want a very useful tip: ALWAYS collect the junk from damaged machinery
This expedition was difficult because it just expected you to shove random shit into your refiner like you knew what it made
Just find a runaway mould deposit, drop a base
just dumped 50 hours in 3 days into a run for the first time playing since 2020 only to realise again why i wish i never knew the refiner duplication glitch. Its defintely worth restarting and playing normally right
Curious deposit
The element they want you to make chromatic metal from isn’t even in the description of chromatic metal
That’s just silly
Yeah NEXT hit terrain HARD for years
Don't I know it.
Over 6y of not great terrain
So many rolling hills
You can also turn pure ferrite into rusted metal by refining oxygen and pure ferrite, which in turn can be refined into ferrite dust
is that water at the bottom or fog
Water
It's cool seeing sand dunes from space
Water. fog moves now
This looks like coffee ice-cream
I picked the game up at launch, went “oh dear that’s not great” and hadn’t touched it for years
2020 I picked it up to try out VR and got the worst motion sickness of my life just trying to figure out how to play. Put it down after 4 hours.
2025 I’ve finally created a brand new save, completed the story, and I’m having such a blast because everything is just “new” to me
I can't believe we're in part 2 of the overhaul era
Ikr? Lol
tbh i'd say it goes
The funniest thing is seeing how many people are like me. Launch folks who are JUST coming back for Worlds P2
It also significantly increases the amount of ferrite dust you can get
And all the vets are so nice in this community
Seen evidence of worlds with oldschool wilder terrain outside of purple systems? As far as I know it's just in purple.
Thats me lol
Some nice patches
Are the pre next people happy? I say the game has the color and terrain back now. After years
Nobody’s like “pffft listen here bud, you weren’t here for update 1.2.7.92 beta branch when planets would grind you to death in a blender”
Been binging it this week, just unlocked purple stars, S class pirate freighter, S class sentinel too, S class exotic, S class sentinel ship, S class custom built fighter…
Game is so great now
Genesis Era (1.0-1.3), NEXT Era, Gimmick Era, Overhaul Era and Worlds Era
Vets? Not sure that I see any relevance.
Is how I name the update eras
You lost me. What do you mean?
Veterans
Just .. wow
What's the difference between overhaul and worlds era?
Longtime players
Veteran players…people who have played the game for all this time while I’ve put it down
not veteranarians
A shack
that is a box
Not war veterans either
Worlds has far greater scope
… which is what it normally means…
That looks cool. I'm gonna make my freighter look more luxurious because right now it's just a ton of random expedition rooms, trade terminals, ect/
The creatures watering the flora 🥰
Who classifies as a "veteran" in this game?
What is the next era oh great oracle
all about context
That's not water..
Before Beyond, Before Origins, before Next?
how do i find the screenshots i took in photomode on my pc?
I don't think that I've ever seen/heard it in any other context, except from Americans.
Vet can mean veterinarian, war veterans, a vetting process. In the respective context surrounding where it was used, it meant veteran players
NEXT till about synthesis ish before they did stuff like living ship
Steam?
there are Americans here
Omega began the overhaul era
This why the concept of “context clues” is taught in early schooling
I'm getting good - in two lands on a planet, I got the the sun-never-sets pole (where this vid was taken).
yes
anyways, glad you decided to pick the game up again
beyond i technically count as next era
welcome back
🤙 It’s a blast
Found a cool looking giant planet. Too bad it has extreme hot storms and extreme cold temps at night.
They should be in your steam screenshots folder
You can check where they are either in steam settings or steam gallery and then press a folder button
Can’t wait until I level up and get reaction privileges because I want to give thumbs up to every photo
There we go, 2 more levels to 100
Would feel weird individually replying to all of them like “Wow so cool!” but that’s literally me every time lol
The way they've done lighting. The sunsets and sunrises, is the most impressive thing I've seen in a space game ever since a niche game named Noctis imo.
In one brief moment, however, they balance and become an optimal temperature
I dropped a save beacon and reloaded in on this world - I can't see it in my visor. Anyone seen this happen lately? I should be able to see it. I even colored it yellow, as I always do, to stand out...
I appreciate that after settlements, all the updates pretty much have been about fixing and deepening what's already here.
Fishing is the first new feature since 2021 iirc
Every planet I found that looked cool or had floating islands always had terrible storms or huge mountains that makes it hard to travel.
They seem so. A great blend of the old and new.
They look so good! The photo mode could (imo) use a couple more features but even with what we’ve got, people make some REALLY pretty photos that show off gorgeous reflections
Hmm? There doesn't seem to be a way to open the screenshots directory; only the video clips directory. (Which is why I have a symlink on the desktop.)
Ship scrapping in Orbital + squadrons in Outlaws
Huh, that’s weird. Should be able to just click on any of your photos on Steam and click “Show on disk”
Oh true!
Ah, they must have sneaked that one in at some point…
I hope the 2nd update of 2025 is a feature overhaul / expansion tbh
Yes. I am a HUGE pre-NEXT person (playing v1.1 alongside current on this PC time to time) and I am loving what I am seeing in the new purple systems. I am quite happy about this.
Looking for confirmation that the wilder terrain is only in purple systems though. I've not spent much time in other systems since W II.
There is a button for that somewhere, not at my pc atm and I usually take pictures with game bar so I don't remember where it is or if it requires some setting
You can also see your recent screenshots on game's page in your library
They actually hid it a little deeper recently, much to my chagrin. You used to be able to right click on the actual photo and go to disk from there, but now you’ve gotta open it up ;-;
Thanks Gaben
I've been wondering for a bit, has HG ever said why they sort of toned everything down after atlas rises? It took em a while to get everything back.
any recommendations on what difficulty i should play on? i havent played since 2020 but i like a challenge
Got glyphs?!? Super cool. I like those hazards on a planet like that.
https://screenshotscontent-t4001.media.xboxlive.com/xuid-2535441122183893-public/03abd812-064f-478a-9e8d-52799d1346a3_Thumbnail.PNG I've never seen terrain strips with caves before
Before wp2 🔵 🔴 🟡 and after 🟣 🟣 🟣 🟣 🟣 🟣 🟣
Purple systems do have the more extreme stuff however.
I’m like you. Normal gets fairly easy pretty quick, might be worth staring in survival
yeah and if you click show on disk you can save the file path for future use if you want to find a screenshot
I’m curious to give it a shot when I get home
gotcha i guess my journey starts anew
btw does anyone have the In Stellar Multitudes ost anywhere
They added 2 new tracks for the quest
Wasn’t sure how difficult the game would be so I dove in on normal, but even without S rank everything like 70 hours in I feel really juiced lmao
That just opens Steam's management window – from where you can open the relevant screenshots directories from the context menus. Would be nice just to be able to open two levels above…
Yes. I have heard them say it once in an interview -- I transcribed that part and put it on my blog. Here is what Sean said when Origins landed:
The fundamental thing is that we have this universe that we built, like, four years ago and we released it and we said that thing of, “even we don’t know what’s out there.” But it was true to an extent, right? We didn’t know the kind of planets people were going to start up on and — and then actually that hasn’t been true for the last four years for us. We have a ever evolving game but that universe has been reasonably static, right? The same terrains and biomes and worlds out there to explore. We’ve kind-of calmed them down, actually. We’ve removed some of the craziness [in Atlas Rises and, to a much larger extent, NEXT]. And Origins is kind-of — yes it’s another update — but it’s kind-of a new start for us in some ways. And we wanted to get that across. That this isn’t just — this isn’t an end, it isn’t just, “here is an update with some more content in.” It’s something quite fundamental for us.
Full text here:
On September 23rd, No Man’s Sky Origins (v3.0) was released to much fanfare. This year’s biggest update to Hello Games’ space exploration / survival tile originally released in 2016, Origins is on the scale of previous major updates such as Beyond, NEXT, and Atlas Rises. And, as has been the case with every No Man’s Sky update (13 major updates ...
Thank you!!!
Origins was great but just seems very tame now compared to worlds 😅
hii
Origins made verticality more extreme mainly
I like that mentality
yeah i just did like a 30-40 hour test run to get my grip on the game again and it felt too quick plus i may have used several glitches which in hindsight now i realise i want a totally vanilla expierence as this game is genuinely the most beautiful, interesting and activity packed games i have ever come across, and i have played hundreds of games
HI TROY!!!
“It’s not the end, it’s just here’s more content”
I AM NOT TROY 😭
You can see how they’ve stayed true to that
THE END IS NOT THE END IS NOT THE END IS… no, wait…
The [ text ] is my own. The distinct biomes started in Atlas Rises (desert, cactus) but it far more of a change with NEXT, as you know.
At the end of this year wp1 will look tiny
😭
Troytally Bonkers
you
totally are
Haha I’m fortunate that I’m completely blind, so the only major bug I’ve had was logging back in and having to fly 10 real time minutes to get a grave from deep space lol
ImmorTroylatty
Hey dude. Nice blog. Cool to see blogform content like that. 👏🙌
Troy puns hurt my head
Been playing for a week, got a decent feel for the game. There are 3 primary quest lines, should they be completed in any order?
yeah I was playing around to see if the refiner dupe was still a thing and i couldnt help but use it on some things when i found out it was but im going to wipe it out of my mind and enjoy the game for what it is
artemis path is the main one
No, you are free to do or ignore them in any order you want
Tho the Space anomaly mission doesn't do much
Not really but it helps to do the Artemis path before the atlas path
Thanks! About to make a new post about unclaimed base computers in the wild. 🙂
Atlas path requires 50 milestones to finish
Nope!
They are rare, correct?
quick question before i start what actually does survival difficulty change?
Thanks Y'all
They are pretty rare / hard to find. They replaced starter basese (one round room you could claim) pre-NEXT, pre-2018, but I think there are less in number than the old starter bases.
Everything is harder
things are just harder
smaller stacks
you take more damage
stuff is more expensive
I must find one
( You used to not be able to just build a base anywhere. When the game launched, there were no bases in fact - and just one starship! )
Things are more expensive, launch costs more etc
would you recommend it or is it just completely up to me
They are surrounded by a disc of perfectly flat terrain - which can help you.
Up to you
Mass fights over who gets the ship?
You forge your own path traveller
You can also use cartographer maps to find them eventually - but it takes time that way.
No wrong way to play
lol - ofc
All I do is explore and build the occasional base.
Unless you’re looking for a shooter
Our characters must be strong. Scrapping a ship and carrying a whole cockpit and engines in our backpacks
Kick Minecraft Steve’s ass
what. This is... I'm looking forward to reading this, because I knew nothing of this.
I'm imagining a ship full of clowns
what about a clown full of ships?
You'd think so, but we all have +N Bags of Carrying (where N is the number of inventory slots).
I will msg you when I post it in a few days. I've been saving pics of them as I encounter them for a while.
bags of holding lets fuckin go
So you just flying around looking for flat circles in the terrain
I surprisingly don't see many people talk about the physics added in worlds 2. NPCs bump into you, asteroids send your ship off spinning. Waves rock you around
Must get sleepy
I keep an eye out for them for this blog post I want to do - because so many don't know anything about them. (And I do.)
asteroids already did that no? ive bounced off asteroids before worlds part 2
Add space racism
already exists
I get tired doing what I do. I imagine this must be mesmerizing
No
Looks like I've got shots of 17 of these wild base computers.
They used to look like this - you'd fly around looking for one of these starter bases. You'd go in and claim it and then build onto it. That's how you built bases pre-NEXT. These were converted to the base computers in the wild -- and I THINK there are many less of them per world than there were these starter bases. But, I am not certain.
( NEXT was released in summer 2018 )
“And here we see the wild base computer in its natural environment, waiting for an unsuspecting traveller to attempt to interact with it. It will ensnare the traveller, who will be forced to build a base. Quite why it does this, scientists have yet to determine; it does not appear to offer any survival advantage.” </attenborough>
I definitely read it in his voice. Those opening words are key Attenboroughese.
when did they change the color of the placeables? my old base comp and refiner are orange
My nutrient processor doesn't have a salad any more 😦
I desperately wish the nutrient processor played the monster hunter cooking music
Or just have cats cook your meals
Mmm so tasty!
Except it’s the farmer just buzzing at you in Gek
I was just building the occupation rooms on my freighter and not thinking about it. Imagine my surprise when I collected some plants and the farmer just APPEARED like “Hey you wanna turn in that quest?”
lol
Cats and Gek have a lot in common
I didn't know vykeen could be smart.
“I did a swan dive through the teleporter because I heard you picked up that gamma root I asked for”
Is that GEK NIP you're growin? wanna turn that in?
House cats and Gek are formerly vicious murderers
“The intelligence in their eyes makes them seem especially dangerous”
WE’VE GOT A SMART ONE BOYS. TAG EM AND BAG EM
WHY so many paradise worlds without water?!?!
short scaly darhel
I need to stop being so awestruck by dissonant worlds
The purple everywhere just makes it so lovely
I also came to a mind boggling discovery this morning before work
Now house cats and Gek: sleep a lot, roll around in nip, smell weird, and still potentially vicious
On my starter planet, I crafted my base computer beside some damaged machinery
I have a whole nice wooden condo beside the machinery and I was always upset because I couldn’t remove the space junk
Today I got back to my house and I activated the Autophage ping to find a nearby camp on my planet
HoA?
Imagine the look on my face when there has literally been a camp in my front lawn
This entire time
Surrounding that one piece of damaged machinery that I spawned beside has been an Autophage camp lmao
Ugh the waves in this update
So now I have a staff machine right at my house. It’s amazing
So lucky
I have a small outpost on a dissonant world with just a landing pad + teleporter that has an Autophage camp just across the river
It’s on a weird island surrounded by water, and the camp is just up the hill across the river like 200m
What other types of faces do the vine doggos have?
I found a planet that has 3 types of them but they all have these two types of faces, just trying to decide if there are other faces I’d like better
Doing the best color approximation because the default filter for the planet is grey with tinge of red lol
I think the sentinels are friendly too because they don’t aggro, plus their vision thingy is blue
Sentinels are "Orthodox". Sigh
Corrupted friendly sentinels
I’m of the mind that when rocking a cape, that is the best cape 
I have one with a purple mushroom flower type face, and one with a pointy kinda Armadillo looking head
I use this one too, because that expedition made me so mad, I’ll be damned if I’m not going to at least wear it some🤣
I saw someone rocking one of the Autophage tops with a poncho and cape, and it looked really good
As a Gek it just looks kinda silly lol
Finally... And it's one with white grass 🤯
I alternate between the streamline pack because of the lil wings that pop out and the Atlas pack because it just looks neat
I never trust in space pics
Nice find though
I would’ve thought it was just icy and ignored it without scanning lol
I scan from my freighter and plan accordingly
I found one of those but they stand on 2 instead
I've been using my freighter scanner to check each system I warp to.
I get Planetside vibes from this somehow
Is it one of those boulders only with no trees?
Smart!
I use freighter scanner, so useful

Unfortunately. But. It's only the second paradise giant I've found and this one is the first one I've found with no storms.
Oh interesting, didn’t know they could go bipedal in design
I got one of the new weird looking bear aliens
Was just picking sodium when I went “went a minute sir that is a MAN”
Instead of adopting one (I’d likely need to clear a spot for one) I think I’ll make a base so I can get the syrupy nectar from them if I want, since there’s plenty of them, with 3 species on planet
How do you aquire the dream Arial again?
Ever since I learned how to make bread, that is the only food I grind for lol
Frigate missions, to get the recipe
Bipedal fauna kinda weird me out
Instant jetpack overcharge? Goodbye climbing cliffs
found a nice moon
All it costs is dung and hep wheat
And you need a living ship too right
Nope
Almost every round food is delicious
I just realized the galaxies in this game dwarfs the Milkyway and Andromeda combined.
I found a "moon" too 
oh holy jesus god
had no idea
Milkyway is only ~50kly across
Google says it's 100k
Is it? I know it's ~25k from Sol to Sagittarius A*
NASA says is 100k
who'da thunk
Sol isn't at the edge of the Milky Way
Yeah, brain is... Weird today
haha, no worries
Work cook brain. Only one cell left.
YO
hi
YO!
WAZ POPPIN
meow
we don't have popcorn in nms. just made me realize
Reminder: we're stuck out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm…
I only know the distance between Sol and Sagittarius cause of Elite
Still haven't came across a gas planet, hope it's beautiful as they made it sound
I wanna fly str8 through a planet man
they are only in purple systems
new type of system
Wtf
yeap
Google said they were fairly common...
Gas Giants do have solid cores
I heard theres oil bugs and advanced aliens in some other sectors we have yet to meet
Ah man, well nvm they don't sound worth it😮💨
Google ai? probably doesn't have much data on it yet
I've never met a sector. Do I want to?
Hello gamers
Well just the search engine but ya probably so😅
They’ve got alot of flying rocks and stuff, so I think gas giants are 10/10
squids too
Flying rocks? What's so special?
This game has pretty storms
i recommend playing the expedition to experience them immediately though! you start on one :)!
Is there anything unique about gas giants besides the look ?
Any mattresses? Biroid life-forms?
Ahhh bro frl, just seen a sick lightning storm yesterday
it's a reference 😭
Expedition huh? Those are the anomally missions right?
no
Nah they’re separate
those are quicksilver missions
the season-kinda-things, Quick Silver missions are different
You start them from the Anomaly, but not the Nexus.
Gorgeous, if theres like a rocky hilltop that would be one of the coolest base spots ever.
Ah I gotchya, ya I'll give it a shot. Maybe get in some multi-player action
This game never fails to amaze me with beauty.
Use the terminal behind the Nexus, next to the Quicksilver merchant.
Sweet thx😎
thats if you want to start from an existing save
can start the expedition as a new save from the main menu
Gek…
And it's only getting better woo woo
Worlds 2 is goated fr
Also why he dressed like an Imperial Officer
Hmm ya isn't there a drawback to starting one, I remember when I started the game I got a pop up box saying I could go to another game mode with multi-player, sumn like that
HE IS A CROW 
I'm using an Autophage look
hope they rerun utopia sometime soon, i want my speedster back
If you're on PC you can ||Save edit the rewards||
lemme do sumn real quick
it wont let me claim previous expedition rewards, but strangely i can claim twitch rewards that i got like over a year ago
Someone had a guide for doing it.
for doing what
Smh, update time is 10hrs for some reason
I see ur on ps4
recovering lost save data?
You can use bot
yea
Bot should help u get the ship
what do you mean
Yeah, gotta use Bot or Cross-Save for console
Crime bot…
Did yall kill Artemis or put him in the simulation
Are the stars in the skybox still acurate to the galaxy map? Its cool looking up at the stars and thinking a player could be there.
i have no clue what that is
My new save i put him in without feeling anything
were they?
Cold bro
Spoilers!!!
make sure to put it in spoiler tags!
Oh no mb😅
Yep! Before prisms atleast
hi artemis
hi
get in it
Thats my alternate universe me
oh
I once delivered ship parts to someone before they went off to do Starbirth. Then jumped to a random Outlaw system ~300ly away to kill a Dreadnought, and there they were again.
My main i actually felt bad…
Bro drops the temp walkin in the room
Ohhh
damn thats neat, but ive given up all hope on even coming close to running into a different player
Ya this game has some major self character decisions
Also, Infra-knife go brr
I just want to get the titles (the one i reject altas)
It happens bro, ur gonna freeze up when u do lol
I am gek of many emotions
Oh u get titles?
Sweet
based
Edible
we all know that's nip nip cmon
I think that's a spoiler
no
mm-mm
that's a different room
OH MY BAD
This is like.
DELETE IT
so what exactly did you mean by this
I'm sorry u have to be the one to decide that Art🥲
service bot
Wait, wasn't someone saying the gas giant storm fish still couldn't be caught? Because uh, they definitely can as of 5.55.
Spoiler bro, spoiler

Anyways back to my new save
that's not a spoiler
evil spoiler
I hope i didn’t fuck up
spoiler is only for the story elementa
you're fine, it's not gonna get you in any trouble lol

Hey ur the boss here🫡
Not a spoiler. Also, not a bro. 😛
No no i meant my new save for the titles…
I'm just a bro guy😎
Everybody is bro. It's gender neutral in most English dialects.
Same as dude
I'll call u brah, how bout that🤙
Anyway, the 3 gas giant storm fish can be caught. As I caught them.
Everyone is earth Fren
fosh
For example: It is Wednesday, my dudes.
Well we should still say it's not possible, just so the devs try to fix something that's not broke yk
Good example
but wouldn't you rather them spend time on creating more awesome content?
I want them to fix the build mode issue
Dang u gotta point there Artemis🤔
I've also got like... 4 other games I'm waiting on updates for.
Ur nms updating?
Nah, future updates
||FO76, Project Zomboid, Abiotic Factor, and Warframe||
Ah man Warframes a throwback frl, used to grind that and Destiny
Not gonna discuss that here, cause we'll end up going way off topic
Has anyone launched the exp from abandond mode? I assume you can take a purple drive and surge battery's back from the exp once it's finished
Fixing the abanond modes two issues of no surge battery's and no purple drive
There's still fixes I want from 5.56 and 5.57 but atelast water and fishing is fixed now
The bigger yellow batteries
yall think we will ever get more colors for our Anomaly?
There's only two batteries. Ion Batteries for Personal equipment, and Starshield Batteries for ships.
Hi friends
According to the patch notes, surge batteries for abandoned were fixed in 5.57
Dang people are ruthless in the galactic hub
God damnit
Looks like I'll wait for 5.57 to play abandond mode jeez
What do you even need them for?
I'm still waiting for Titan fixes before touching the exped, thanks.
Now build a Train base.
I finished the titan exp on switch with no issues besides visual
Nice bus!
S'okay, I can finish gas giant fishing in the meantime...
The last creature I need is rare and underground. God help me
ooh neat 
Ima have to run through the exp again on a abandond save to get a purple drive
I don't see why we can't acess them on abandond regularly
Is it just me, or is the WP1 water back on Switch. It looks the way it used to before WP2 broke it. Which is fine, I rather WP1 water than lifeless frozen crap
It looks like wp1 water yeah but we still have deeper oceans so it's fine ig
Switch 2 around the corner anyway, we can have prettier water then
Wonder if the new Switch will be better for NMS.
Probably but nms already is peak on switch lol
I can't even start a abandond mode save it won't give me a undiscovered system lmao wtf
4 tries
Except for the Switch throwing tantrums with megabases. That's the only real flaw
I don't really have that issue tbh I've hit 6k+ parts on land and freighter bases
Ah. I haven't tried going to a featured recently. Maybe it won't crash this time...
Floating city
IMO the only actual "unplayable" Switch NMS era was Interceptor
did you all notice that UFO in the expedition? oh man that was some mind blowing building
I owned nms during interceptor but didn't play for some reason I think I was still using ps4 at the time
What about settlements causes problems on switch?
Allegedly switch wouldn't be able to handle settlements but I've gone as high as 9000 parts before lag
(And let's be honest, some people just don't know how to look after their Switch properly...)
Meanwhile, this last gas giant legendary fish apparently wants to be a pain...
Yeap
Ruin , new frozen generation and jungle biomes will be outside purple tho
What is a Blood Planet?
🩸 Blood for the Blood God🩸
Finished my gas giant fishing in a small puddle lmao
LMAO
Did you catch many gas giants?
I caught this boot 🥾
just a mega exotic biome, not particularly rare, it just called mega exotic to differentiate it from just exotic
Oh ok Cool
So it gave you the boot…
Master Exotic Spacer Planet to the Extreme?
idk, never heard of it
woo, water pit on a gas giant found
just completely randomly, fell into a hole and there was a puddle. no scanner indicators
It makes your interloper’s eyes bleed during the day and near blind at night lol
LOL
Abandond mode save icon fixed atleast don't look like a failed perma death save
Idk how to spawn the anomoly probably a warp
Hi
I fall into a lot more holes now after wp2
how do i see my friend code
Yeah just reload game
Sounds like a standard visual bug yeah
did you exchange with an NPC and then bought it back without exchanging?
nope
okay i found it but when i click show the button just disappears and nothing happens
Is it just me or are red stars seeming almost entirely abandoned/unihabited
yup
you will find some of them with stations, but most of them seem to not have them
95% of red star systems is uncharted, meaning no space station, no ships, no NPC
Deeply inside the red stars have..... 
You can't see purple stars in abandond mode galaxy map so nevermind doing the exp i guess lol
I just opted for a red star pirate system. I need that nitrogen.
Are there any recent updates on Cross-Saves? I want to get back into the game but would rather use my PS4 save game instead of starting all over
Idk if you can even make staffs in this mode lol
I'm abit miffed about no purple stars on even 5.5.5
Folks report they are getting their cross-save slots
No purple stars on switch?
It's just slow
Abandond mode not switch specially
Idk, maybe it's first come first served?
If you don't log in and don't connect now and then you miss your chance on getting a cross-save slot?
Ah I see
That's nice new content you got there it would be a shame if you couldn't do half the stuff on the regular mode lol
Bc it would make sense to give slots to people who are using them and might report issues vs users who log in once a year to check if cross-save is out of beta

I did however find a paradise planet 1 warp in apparently, mild rain, abundant flora and fluana
This planet looks delicious
...youse gonna eat it?
I wish I could
It's a purple star planet with no storms or sentinels, it's tropical with blue/pink trees 😮
well thatt's a heckuva jaw breaker!
Beats the broclee planet you posted last night lol
what broccoli planet
oh
Just finished the Expedition, and The Wraith is my absolute favorite ship rn, absolutely awesome. Also happy to get another Staff in my collection of multi-tools.
how do i get my friend code to show up? when i press the button to show it the button just disappears and nothing happens
oh. Califlower!
congratulations sir!
Thank you kindly. 😄 Now that I have that behind me, I'm looking forward to this upcoming beta test with another game.
The expedition staff is made of rock but it looks oddly…squishy
Like I just wanna squeeze the top part
it spin! i think....
It do!

how do you dupe ship parts again?
I wish the concentric transducer was a bit bigger
what giant ass traveller did this helmet belong to bruh
Because the triple disc head is so cool but it’s like, small
oh my
Wow. XD I should have tamed one of those while on the expedition but ah well. I have some bases in nearby systems.
Mitey sits on the bridge in orbit of two water worlds. Mitey would like to go down and explore them.. but man. Mitey tired. Orders crew Rest time!
Now Mitey just has to get up and go to bed heh. I WANT A TELEPORTER HERE!
safety first! Always wear a helmet.
Alright Mitey retire! bye bye travelers! 👋🏻
The Atlas has created many simulations~
And we wonder how chickens are descended from creatures with a wingspan greater than the width of the average inner city apartment
So I can't craft staffs earn rep, get a freighter or see purple stars, I guess that makes sense because they story related but still should be implemented in the new mode
Earn rep I don't expect added but the other stuff even if it's a rng freighter upon starting
People wished for an Adrift-like mode, they got their wish granted
A finger curls on the monkey's paw

I wanted a drift like mode with all the stuff from a regular game not ripped from adrift 
Just cut the aliens 👽
I can redeem the atlas and titan staff so I mean 🤷 we can count that
Not being able to craft ships is weird because I can still find craft ships too
Crashed *
Finally reached my 1st water planet since the update and it's in expedition.....dang, it's really trying to put fear of the ocean in me
Especially since I tried going into 1st person
thalassophobia
You mean abandoned mode? Pretty sure there’s an alternate method to get a freighter unique to that mode
That's a fair point lol
It's not like the freighter actually drives in gsme thom
There is? How ?
Someone mentioned you restore a derelict I think
Pretty sure? 
Might be a unique event from the anomaly detector
With the power of imagination
Or bs
Restore a derlect? Are you trollin
They said it was one of the few things they thought about in that mode
That'd be pretty cool, restoring a derelict
But I haven’t done it so don’t take my word
i made a reddit post on my green ship. i cant find anyone else mentioning ship colour changes online except from years ago and not the radiant pillar
I think someone was throwing idea for what could but isn't
The robot race is locked from the customization menu aswell in the anomoly damn
There is no way to get a freighter in abandoned mode
Could very well be. I didn’t even know the mode was a thing
well if the universe is empty there's no way for robots to be built
I actually like abandoned mode better when I thought it had no anomoly
No Korvax to break free from the hive
As a launch ps4 owner I'm a fan of the premise of a abandond mode but it's missing too much lol
So basically abandoned mode is regular no mans sky with 60% of the stuff removed
and no purple stars unless you can skip quest
No Man’s Sky 2017 Edition
You can't, no purple stars period
very survival mode, without ugprades
sounds like a very bad mode
Yeah I could do the exp and get the drive but 9urple stars aren't visible on the screen
Only a masochist would play it
that's the point
perhaps
I still can't see why someone would want to play no mans
they removed half the content in abandoned so now it's just no mans
the sky is gone
it's like super hardcore mode playmodes in mmos where you not only have permadeath but like you can't wear any gear above common quality
I was interested in playing it till I couldn't even see purple stars lol
I wish we could just do it like new game+
Start with every quest completed and a freighter
everything unlocked
Cool in that case then
that's creative mode
yep
In what update did they make the transition between planet and space so smooth because I LOVE it
Abandoned should be creative mode+ and have every thing NPC/quest related unlocked
Otherwise it's unobtainable
which makes no sense to play if everything can't be obtained
wp2
It would be cool if ||resetting the universe just starts the tutorial quest again when you wake up on the planet,|| but you keep all your stuff.
That was honestly my least favourite part of the game
I'm doing a new settlement lol feels so much like some NMS mobile spin off I'd download on my phone
I’m glad they did something
that would be cool yea
much more fun to be blinded by clouds until you crash into the surface to find a landing spot now
there's no lag in between
Settlements are hilarious because it’s just enough. Obviously I’d love to be able to interact with my settlers and do more, but I’m okay with it being FarmVille
Just throw metal sheets at the invisible work crew every 2 hours
Yep,
New building, make a choice. Not that deep but fun
Settle a dispute by taxing the non-Gek troublemakers
I wish we could change what they produce or something to make them more useful
Such is the way
make them a big resource farm
no tax evasion without representation
