[wraith bough]

thanks xD

[vocal plinth]

Got 6 left

I want a dragon wing sentinel ship

[toxic silo]

Seeing that thing get built up over the last couple weeks since I joined has been a treat

[pliant sundial]

I just found this the other day and it gave me renewed purpse for my next ship hunt
https://nmsint.vercel.app/

[vocal plinth]

Whats that?

[pliant sundial]

interceptor catalogue, massive

[vocal plinth]

What do u mean interceptor catalogue?

[toxic silo]

the hoover dam at 1 minute got me real good. oh my god.

[long lagoon]

If you've got access to a portal, I found a red A class dragonfly sentinel ship the other day

[vocal plinth]

I saw like a single portsl

But disnt mark it

There were player beacons

[wraith bough]

and what's better, look at what @jovial dune is doing next to the strip

[vocal plinth]

A dam?

[wraith bough]

not a Dam! the Dam! Hoover Dam!

[vocal plinth]

Huh?

[heady gyro]

It’s an American thing is Canadian

[vocal plinth]

Ah that explains

[wraith bough]

the most important Dam in Nevada, and in Fallout New Vegas it's the disputed area between 2 factions

[heady gyro]

Have you seen the first transformers movie? The original first Michael bay transformers movie

[vocal plinth]

All i know is that i made a base on a dissonant planet bear an s rabk sentinel ship

Outside of euclid

[pliant sundial]

its a site where someone(s) have uploaded so much data on interceptors across multiple galaxies that you can search for specific appearances and colors

[vocal plinth]

But is not an dragon one

Idk all i want is an s rank one

I have a b rank tank looking sentinel ship

Then an s rank

[pliant sundial]

and then once you get one, youll decide you want an S rank with a different slot layout

[heady gyro]

Dam straight. Or an s rank that’s got fancy looking guns or lots of thrusters but none on the wings

[pliant sundial]

that site is perfect for browsing those

its not even mine in any sense and im gushing over it

[heady gyro]

I deny your reality and will continue searching for my own

[vocal plinth]

Well i have the an s rank hauler eith expedition.parts

[heady gyro]

Also petition to let us make custom shuttles

[pliant sundial]

i honestly just browse and gape lol, none of the models i like on the site lists an S class location

[vocal plinth]

I saw the smollest explorer today

It was unreal

[heady gyro]

You seen the sentinel ship that’s just a cockpit with guns and landing gear?

[pliant sundial]

i want one with legs and the triple eyes

[jovial dune]

Needs more work; and also tinkering with Gumsk's gCam to get it working with current version so I can get a wider build cam area to work on this.

[vocal plinth]

I have it

B rank

Ugly

And orange

[heady gyro]

I’ve deleted my saves

And am starting over

Time to be a smart space pirate. And not get -300 vykeen ranking

[pliant sundial]

feelsgood.gif

[vocal plinth]

Lmaoooo

-300?!

[heady gyro]

:)

[vocal plinth]

Whats happens when u have negative?

They hunt or what?

[pliant sundial]

it would be neat if they attacked you on sight

[vocal plinth]

Extra prices?

[pliant sundial]

barred from vykeen station portals

[cinder frost]

hehe nice

[vocal plinth]

Lol

[pliant sundial]

vykeen merchant prices are through the roof

[heady gyro]

You can’t do their missions. No discounts. Increased prices.

Also all vykeen space stations… are coloured red to mark that they don’t like you.

[pliant sundial]

Im down

[vocal plinth]

Pfffff

F

[pliant sundial]

Id actually play a pirate if that happened

[heady gyro]

The shop signs. They are highlighted red instead of the usual light blue

[pliant sundial]

You learn new curse words, though

Mostly aimed at you

[heady gyro]

Also.

[pliant sundial]

Get a bonus against or from vykeen ships in combat

[heady gyro]

The standing gain

Those settings are only for gaining. Not losing

[pliant sundial]

Vykeen raids on your settlements and bases

[heady gyro]

Which means. I blew up at a minimum. 300 vykeen ships or cargo containers

[vocal plinth]

Whah

[heady gyro]

One cargo container looted? Minus one reputation

[vocal plinth]

Bruh

[toxic silo]

the server won't let me post gifs but you know the one i'm thinking of.

Yes-Man. Do the thing.

[heady gyro]

I have also locked my difficulty settings.

Question on lore.

Is the start of the game. Right after a purge

[golden shale]

@ruby beacon do you agree

I knew settlements would be on this list lmao

They are not no, only the destroyed ones.

My solution to this is pretty simple: An option you can unlock after completing the main story once wherein you start in a state of story completion, though I'm not sure how they'd handle certain stuff.

I also don't know why people restart when big updates drop because you'd have to just regrind everything.

[steep quarry]

Ah ok

[golden shale]

It wasn't a lie at the time you read it potentially. Relics allowed abandoned to access purple systems if you build the drive.

As for the ignored comment below it, I sincerely doubt it. They could find a way to work in future additions as long as they're not NPC related.

[agile nebula]

Anyone else awaiting a new emoji post from Sean with the expedition nearing its end?

[golden shale]

Plus abandoned is meant to be a unique restricted mode anyways. I've enjoyed my abandoned save and never in the history of me playing this game have I enjoyed starting a new save and its all thanks to a reddit post I saw about certain settings.

Finally a rocket boots enjoyer.

[pliant sundial]

im just wondering what expeditions they will reopen this year. i forget how to check

[desert sun]

Usually nms updates happened several months apart, getting relics just after worlds 2 is very rare. I expect the next emoji to drop sometime in the next month though just going from what I've seen

[golden shale]

Us rocket boots fans know that their real usage is in areas you cannot melee boost.

[desert sun]

Any that played that year, sometimes one from earlier but it's impossible to tell which

[wraith bough]

I'd say it looks pretty nice in its current state regardless!

[golden shale]

Aquarius, Relics, ??? and ????

[desert sun]

And only there

[pliant sundial]

i use my boots all the time, its an addiction

[agile nebula]

Think there will be a new expedition after this one ends? Or have there been long gaps between them before?

[golden shale]

??? and ???? are the third and 4th if they plan to do 4 of them

[desert sun]

Usually there's a period of about a month between them

[golden shale]

It's heavily likely we get a new update within 6 weeks minimum and it could well be the summer update.

The updates have started to get so much bigger in scale.

[pliant sundial]

i just want a skip dialog button

[desert sun]

There is sort of one

[golden shale]

It's not a perfect solution but you can just tap a button to make the dialogue appear faster

[desert sun]

Just spam the next line one

[golden shale]

It's A on xbox, X on playstation and B i think on switch

PC I have no clue

[errant copper]

The closer to the centre the weirder the critters get

[junior stratus]

I only started over cuz i got the game on ps5 a few months ago

[pliant sundial]

i mean yeah im LMBing like mad, i just want one i can hold for both rushing the dialog and proceeding

[golden shale]

I wish that was the case Nate, it'd be a cool procgen type thing

Don't you have cross save access

[errant copper]

I wanted to adopt the tentacles but I couldn't find a body

[pliant sundial]

its like a NSFW mini beholder

[desert sun]

Not technically true but those are cool

[steep quarry]

yeah, I have rocket boots too, I don't like the melee boost thing

[viral knoll]

I bought this game when the first release. Played only 200hrs or so and put it down. Just started playing again 2 weeks ago. Love the new updates and I missed out on all the badass expeditions. Just finished this one. Anyone know if old expeditions will be available?

[jovial dune]

I found the upscaled stone walls have a rounded endcap that seems to disappear before the rest of the wall, when you're far enough away. I need to account for that. 😄

[pliant sundial]

someday, perhaps. they seem to re-release a few old expeditions each year, usually recent ones and rarely others. if youre on PC you can find your way into the unavailable ones.

[viral knoll]

Ps5 only

[errant copper]

Rocket boots are good

[graceful grail]

yeah old expeditions get re-runs sometimes either at the end of the year or in the early next year. not all are re-ran though

[errant copper]

Double tap to jump Far it's good to get ahead literally

[viral knoll]

Damn I want that melinium falcon

[errant copper]

It's just a good help to get about

[graceful grail]

lolz

[graceful grail]

are familiar with the melee launching technique?

[errant copper]

Ye

[graceful grail]

ah ok

[errant copper]

But I prefer rocket boots

[graceful grail]

lotta ppl here would kill ya for that opinion xDD

[errant copper]

Lol

[wicked lava]

just got my first pirate dreadnought! except for looking awesome, do they offer any benefits/differences compared to normal freighters?

[errant copper]

Good luck finding me 😂

[toxic silo]

rocket boots + melee boost is hilarious and amazing and when we get used to it, we look COOL AS HECK

[errant copper]

Lots of planets

[toxic silo]

Forget infinite climbing, I want to mega man X wall jump

[graceful grail]

not really, no
they're the largest freighter tho

[by a small margin]

[wicked lava]

like storage wise?

or js looks

[graceful grail]

no, size

looks

[wicked lava]

oh cool

[errant copper]

Unless you have GekNip then no 😂

[steep quarry]

wait, you can actually double tap the jump??

[wicked lava]

is it hard to find s class dreadnoughts

[graceful grail]

with rocket boots technology installed yes

[errant copper]

Yeah double tap to with rocket boots

It's v v v good

[graceful grail]

ha. hehe

[toxic silo]

It does replace climbing and takes getting used to, but once you're used to it you become tony hawk

[errant copper]

I'll make a quick video of it

[steep quarry]

huh, I'll have to try it out then

[wicked lava]

i dont understand 😭

[errant copper]

Rocket Gek

[graceful grail]

i find it's best use when traversing space stations

[errant copper]

Yeah who needs stairs eh

😂

[graceful grail]

sometimes yea.
some people will spend many, many hours searching for one

[wicked lava]

alr wb atleast an a-class or smth

cuz i cba to do that

[vapid plaza]

for some people it takes ten minutes. For some it takes 50 hours of dedicated efforts. I suggest you play the game and eventually a s class will come to you.

[steep quarry]

I just click & hold jump, is that not the same?

[wicked lava]

yeah tbh i got my first exotic without even consciously looking for one

[graceful grail]

definetely a higher chance

[vapid plaza]

3 save files. on all three, playing the game got me an S.

[wicked lava]

are dreadnoughts customisable?

[vapid plaza]

i had a shit level b on one of them for 40 hours.. but I didnt even use the freighter until 300th hour

[errant copper]

So I've 2 living ships going spare if anyone wanted one let me know

Both good little buggers

[junior stratus]

:D

[graceful grail]

yep! colorwise

[vapid plaza]

cant change the color of the oars though.

[graceful grail]

man the oars

[vapid plaza]

hell no.. man needs space protection. Send the korvax out there.

[graceful grail]

so real actually

[steep quarry]

oh that!! I've done that on accident before lol

[errant copper]

It's handy if you're a short Gek 😂

[golden shale]

Question for the fellow vets

Do you remember the days before swimming got updated around visions or so when iirc we couldn't jetpack boost through water

[wraith bough]

Here's a good thing, that gap will likely be camuflated anyway thanks to the walls that will be located to the other side xD

Though i'd fill it too

[hexed flume]

nuts

[wraith bough]

Also, apparently we're in the news, look
https://gamerant.com/no-mans-sky-fallout-new-vegas-strip/
Your dam is mentioned too, i think due to the comments in the reddit post, where i mentioned the dam was being built in the planet

@jovial dune

[steep quarry]

I think I started playing just after that point, I feel like it would be a pain to manually swim, especially if you'd need to go far distances due to lack of aquajets!

[white bluff]

I've been playing the whole time - can't recall properly - jetpacks used to just not work in water?

You guys notice this bug in current? A ship comes to trade and when it does your ship takes on its character name until you reload?

I am not Warror Lag.

[steep quarry]

yeah, visual bug left by comms

[white bluff]

I should report it, I guess.

[cunning iris]

So I assume your ping is fine

...I'll see myself out

[steep quarry]

you can, but people have already done so

[errant copper]

Can someone refresh my memory I can have 3x S upgrades right day for hyper, and some a or b?

[cunning iris]

Three modules bought from vendors; any number of modules learned by blueprints

Class doesn't matter

[steep quarry]

it's 3 upgrade modules (ideally S class for best stats, or X class for the possibility of better than S class) like the ones bought at space stations, then any installable blueprints unlocked at the anomaly

[errant copper]

So 3 in tech?

[steep quarry]

for some things, that means only 4 total upgrades (ship weapons & shields for example), other things can have way

[errant copper]

Currently this

[steep quarry]

all tech goes in tech slots, wdym by this?

[errant copper]

I was reading on Google sorry

[white bluff]

All upgrades must be in tech slots as of whatever that upgrade was - Next Gen or Origins

[errant copper]

Yeah I just needed a refresher Thank you guys

Lots has changed in 2 years

[cunning iris]

Coming back after 2 years? Oh man. Enjoy!

[errant copper]

Yeah 2023 I think

But fortunately I remember 80% ISH

[lament spade]

They get annoying when you're trying to go up a mountain or land ontop of something but you keep getting boosted away.

[white bluff]

The clean up for upgrades only in tech happened in time for the Switch release - in that version. It was a good move - was kinda nuts to have upgrades avail in both storage and tech slots prior

Messy

[errant copper]

Ah that's why

[pliant sundial]

jetpack works normally if you dont double tap

[cunning iris]

It was a good move, but before the SC slots came, it was quite controversial lol.

[steep quarry]

right, you have a good idea, but you should move the emeril drive next to the hyperdrive, and move the S class pulse engine upgrade next to the pulse engine for better adjacency, also it's best to supercharge core tech for weapons, and upgrades for everything else, meaning I'd swap the infra knife for the current B class one (probably the Q-resonator), and swap the supercharged hyperdrive for one of the other S class ones

[errant copper]

Yeah I forgot how to get the most out of them so let me do that

[steep quarry]

tbf, that 20% is likely what changed, and there's also been a lot added as new stuff too

[pliant sundial]

adjacency still drives me nuts

[white bluff]

And don't forget upgrades from pirate stations and also from the glass that drops when sentinels are defeated. They can boost overall systems.

[graceful grail]

when building? they still haven't fixed that?

[pliant sundial]

well that too, but i meant tech slots

[graceful grail]

oh

[steep quarry]

nah, I like it as a visual indicator, and it does help your stats to be increased slightly

[pliant sundial]

oh i like it, but tweaking it is a little minigame sometimes

[cunning iris]

Yep, techs with many modules can be tricky...

(Looking at you, hyperdrive)

[steep quarry]

hyperdrive is easy, you make it as a 3x3 grid if you've got all installed blueprints + 3 S class modules

it's ones like weapons that are annoying cause it's 5 total things (core + blueprint + 3 upgrade modules)

[cunning iris]

It's more the fact that the logic isn't always the same: on this case, for instance, I don't remember from memory if it's better to have the base tech in the center, in the corner...
I recall most techs on the multitool benefit from being in the corner.

...and I won't even begin on the ones that do benefit from being put on a SC slot (the base tech) and the ones that don't

It can get messy fast.

[steep quarry]

I think for hyperdrive, it doesn't entirely matter cause they'd all be adjacent to one another, I mainly played around with placement until I was happy or it was the highest value I could do

[errant copper]

I do too to get the max range possible

[steep quarry]

that's easy, core tech for weapons, upgrades for everything else

[steep quarry]

there is a command you can use in #bot-spam to help, it's any of the "layout" commands such as !faq-shiplayout

[cunning iris]

Good study case is the good ole' neutron cannon, which fooled plenty of people (myself included) for quite some time about the best SC layout, which had the base tech outside the SC slots

I think it's still not quite right on the proposed layout in the faq, for instance. 😆
"Right" is not exactly the word... "ideal" perhaps.

That all being said, yep, for some time I had those images saved for quick reference on my cellphone...

[white bluff]

This seems wrong

[steep quarry]

yeah, neutron cannon is the exception lol, and sentinel ships are the exception for non weapons, sentinel core tech is good to SC

[cunning iris]

For a fraction of a second I thought "what seems wron- oh."

[halcyon tide]

lmao perfect level up

[halcyon tide]

oh yeah i've been getting that bug too

[white bluff]

MODES

[leaden salmon]

I'm curious if this would improve your range

[errant copper]

Let me try

[white bluff]

Another bug is that flat straight band of shadow on gas giants - seen there in the horizon

that's not "organic"

[errant copper]

So currently it's

[errant copper]

It did not

[random arrow]

æ is porous,

[leaden salmon]

Ah gotcha, thanks for testing it

[random arrow]

Damn

[errant copper]

Np

Always testing to see what can be improved

[leaden salmon]

My range is just a bit below yours, 1907 on mine

[long lagoon]

Resource gathering is hungry work, time for a quick snack....

[leaden salmon]

Yummy grub

I mean, juicy grub, since that's their name in the game lol

[long lagoon]

By the way, I found one today 🙂

[leaden salmon]

Happy for ya!

The squid pilot finally reached you

Took him a few days
But again that was faster than expected

Similar with the shuttle

[spiral kernel]

You guys wanna join boys system?

[errant copper]

I don't know if I can increase it

[steep quarry]

I was thinking something like this

[errant copper]

I'll try tomorrow logging off soon need sleep

[long lagoon]

Lol, yeah, found it in a 1 star system

[leaden salmon]

I think main way would be getting other modules or the atlas figurine. But yeah I think it's pretty close to as best as it can be atm

[leaden salmon]

Wow haha

[cunning iris]

Ships overall don't get crazy hyperdrive values these days, unless you are commited to use SC slots... and even so...

[leaden salmon]

I need a 2x2 explorer someday
Raaah

And just dedicate it fully to range

[golden shale]

Ew gamerant

[cunning iris]

Lately I've been kinda tired of freighter battles after a warp, so I'm just using my freighter for jumps... 😅

It's quite good for long range too, but I rarely use that

[leaden salmon]

I'd def use the freighter instead but don't feel like grinding the frigate modules yet

[steep quarry]

you can get pretty good tbh, my sentinel is, iirc, 3000 ly or so

[wraith bough]

I don't know that site, are they famous for making bad articles?

[cunning iris]

Took me some time indeed. Thankfully it's now in the past

[leaden salmon]

Real

[cunning iris]

That's pretty good! I think my best ship in this regard can just reach 2200LY or so. Would have to check.

[mossy parcel]

I say what about that ! 🔫 psh psh

[halcyon tide]

[mossy parcel]

You cant escape GekEye

[halcyon tide]

[steep quarry]

yeah, considering my freighter is only about 2000, I mainly use my ship to warp lol

[mossy parcel]

Its 200nipnip cookie for 1 cat

And 500 for 2

[cunning iris]

My freighter now has good stats; but the grinding for it... it was painful

[mossy parcel]

[mossy parcel]

Mama mia

[steep quarry]

yeah I'm still unsure how to get upgrades for the freighter besides the unlocked blueprints cause I've got all those installed already

[mossy parcel]

So how many cat today

[halcyon tide]

wdym how many cat

[mossy parcel]

Im goimg to say it to GunterGod

[cunning iris]

Gotta run derelicts. What I did was going to a system posted on the coordinates exchange a long time ago... would always give S-class modules. Still, getting all of them took days

[mossy parcel]

I check and im back

[steep quarry]

I run derelicts for the tainted metal usually, and SFM when I needed them, but I've never gotten upgrades from anything there, where do you actually get them in derelicts?

[cunning iris]

Last terminal, if I recall correctly you can choose between a cargo bulkhead or an upgrade module

I don't quite remember specifics, but I think the class is fixed and tied to the system

The type of module you get is random

[steep quarry]

ohhhhhh, I always select bulkhead, no wonder

[cunning iris]

You can get upgrade modules for blowing up pirate dreadnoughts too, but the rules for that are a bit... mysterious to me. In the sense that I've got modules in situations people swore I shouldn't lol. The only thing I know is you need to destroy it fast.

[white bluff]

That was a surprise

[mossy parcel]

5 Cat so its 2000 NipNip Cookie

[ionic lintel]

you need to take down it's shields and destroy it without destroying its engines or its weapons as it will surrender when you do.

[mossy parcel]

I think i scroll a bit to much 00:00

[junior stratus]

i love the fact that because you single handedly destroy the pirate venator they submit to you

"alright fine you are the better pirate"

[mossy parcel]

@halcyon tide 1 Cat 200 + 1 Cat 300 + 1 Cat 400 + 1 Cat 500 + 1 Cat 600 = 2000 NipNip cookie all benef

[cunning iris]

Wish sentinels did the same

[junior stratus]

i still wish we could raid that thing

[cunning iris]

I'd be more tempted to engage in battle with them, hehe

[junior stratus]

destroy the sentinel ship engines and board it then fight through it to the command room where its like a autophage type sentinel

and you fight him or make him surrender

and it disables sentinels (in space not planetary)

for a bit

[cunning iris]

The loot would have to be great.

[junior stratus]

new appearances from killing it

[cunning iris]

That would be awesome

[junior stratus]

salvaged sentinel armor appearance

im still waiting for warring factions :(

[junior stratus]

i love all the appearance they are adding it just sucks 50% of it is locked behind FOMO

[toxic silo]

"Dude you killed all my starships, the civilian freighter, and THEIR starships. And the senintels. Aaaand the station security. Y'know what. You can have it."

[junior stratus]

hahahaha

[toxic silo]

We let them live for a reason

[junior stratus]

i wanna take over a space station and

[lean fractal]

🤩

[junior stratus]

turn it into a money maker

[cunning iris]

Yep, they are mostly coming from expeditions. Would be nice to have some tied to normal-game missions, especially late-game stuff.

[junior stratus]

we still dont have a use for station override things right?

[toxic silo]

😦 no

[cunning iris]

Nope.

[hidden mason]

I found Earth!!!!! OMG

[junior stratus]

😭

[lean fractal]

pretty alien

[cunning iris]

It has... veins... crazy. 😆

[lean fractal]

hehe yeah

love aliens tbh

probably still my favorites after all these years

😁

[cunning iris]

I used to be fond of those experimentals... now I have a collection of staves...

[toxic silo]

Tsk. Your Horse isn't even spherical.

[toxic silo]

Now you're just compensating

[lean fractal]

lol

[steep quarry]

I think that's where I've gotten one before, yeah

[lean fractal]

The only thing I know is you need to destroy it fast.
you got 5 seconds to blow it up after it surrenders in order for it to still drop the s-class module

lots of ships wont have the needed damage for it, and will just not get any module - those ships must ignore engines+blow it up to get the module

[toxic silo]

o r b

[lean fractal]

these feel like they've got thrusters on 😄

[toxic silo]

**O R B **

[toxic silo]

Yeah I don't want to know what they're aiming at

getting real helix station vibes

[lean fractal]

beltalowda

[toxic silo]

SHFDJKjh

[cunning iris]

Makes sense, thanks! That's why I said I got the modules in situations I shouldn't -- more than once I blew warp engines, destroyed the ship and still got modules

[toxic silo]

ay bossmang

I guess it's not a surprise that we understand belter creole

[lean fractal]

😄

[toxic silo]

Ah well. What damage could rocks do, anyway?

[lean fractal]

depends on what kinda rocks

😄

[toxic silo]

i still can't get over how they stole an entire space station from the mormons

[lean fractal]

shoot i didn't get a herald screenshot for may 4th

[toxic silo]

but I guess that's life

It's not spoilers because I'm joking. Who would think that space mormons were a thing

...Wait that's warhammer 40k isn't it

[cinder frost]

Btw has the station map faq been updated for orbital? if it has then faq for base personnel needs to be updated

[halcyon tide]

i think it has yes

after looking i can confirm that it has been

-# ngl it's not a great map but it's there

[lean fractal]

needs to be updated for bone collector

havent had the time yet

[halcyon tide]

ah yeah it needs the bone guy

[lean fractal]

about faq-basepersonnel,

i've got a faq-quests coming

[halcyon tide]

:0

[lean fractal]

i'll be going over those things, basepersonnel included

[halcyon tide]

what changed with the base personnel?

[lean fractal]

basically, requires the right mission selected

[cinder frost]

Oh okay then, i'm going to go look for a water world(i have purp systems unlocked)

[lean fractal]

after they've been hired, we cannot change

[lean fractal]

remember, X or Y spectral classes

[cunning iris]

Ooohhh this was changed? Thank heavens lol!

I did notice I wasn't getting dialogues from NPCs wanting to work for me

[lean fractal]

yeah, at least ime, it wont ever overwrite any more npcs after that

[cunning iris]

Well, makes sense, that always felt like a bug

Probably was "fixed" many many moons ago and I didn't notice

[scarlet garnet]

Hey y'all!

[cunning iris]

Hi there!

[scarlet garnet]

I hope y'all are doing well today or tonight wherever y'all may be.

I'm hopping between two discords at the moment.

[cloud pagoda]

So i catalogue and keep track of all the systems i discover/travel through. I keep track of alot of info pertaining to the systems and planets, but i wanna see if im missing anything what all would you guys consider important info to note down?

[toxic silo]

in the end, none of it is important. but there are a few tricks to save stuff that you forgot. You can mark discoveries as a custom wonder to get their portal coordinates, and eventually return there if you need to. You can also get those coordinates in camera mode, which is neat.

But no, you won't miss stuff. If anything, you'll just keep discovering more

fly facefirst into a black hole, it's all good

[scarlet garnet]

Can I ask what happens if you fly into a black hole? Not planning on doing so, was just curious.

I'm still relatively new to this game.

[leaden salmon]

The black hole ||gets you closer to the galactic core||

[cunning iris]

Mostly, sends you to the other side of the galaxy -- it's more a lateral movement

Very useful if you want to drastically change locations

Also will break one tech in your... ship or exosuit, can't remember

[halcyon tide]

you get warped super far away

up to 1.5mil ly afaik

[cunning iris]

Yeah, it's a bit crazy.

[elfin plover]

bought my brother a copy of NMS because I'm a nice older sister like that sometimes lmao

[scarlet garnet]

Oh ok, thank y'all for the info. I need all the info I can get in this game.

[scarlet garnet]

My friend bought me my copy!

[elfin plover]

also it's 60% off on GOG atm as is so yeah why the hell not, I know he's been interested in the game after all

[cunning iris]

Oh, is it on sale? Hmm...

Wonder if it's on sale on Steam too...

[scarlet garnet]

I got mine hard copy for a little over $15.

[cunning iris]

...no sale on Steam for now. 😕

[elfin plover]

yeah no sale on steam, GOG is neat though because that version is DRM Free as well

so arguably the better buy because you get full crossplay anyway

[cunning iris]

I was checking because... well, this isn't exactly a spoiler, but to be overzealous: ||sales on multiple platforms are one of the signs of an incoming update. Not the sign, but one of them||

[elfin plover]

oh yeah I know about that

[scarlet garnet]

I play on console. Slow ass PS4. Lol

[kind rose]

How does one build a fossil exhibit on a large scale? Do I just find fossils then display them? I don’t understand how this works I haven’t played in a long time.

[cunning iris]

Since we have an expedition coming to an end in two days...

[elfin plover]

apparently I learned recently it's possible to technically replay exhibitions in offline form by just swapping a few JSON files which is wild

[cunning iris]

You can build them on a display or build the parts separately, in which case you can rescale, position the fossils as you wish etc.

[rustic trellis]

big ahh solar panel

[kind rose]

So I can just hunt random stuff and display it how I please?

[cunning iris]

They will show up as a build part, more-or-less following the same logic as exotic decorations you gather on anomalous planets

[vapid plaza]

Stick them in drawers 😄

[cunning iris]

Such a good idea hahah

[vapid plaza]

There are actually "craft a skeleton" display devices that you have to unlock in the anomaly base building menu

[scarlet garnet]

That's a neat idea!

[vapid plaza]

once you craft the skeleton, you can move it to another place by picking it up

[cunning iris]

My first one on the expedition... I know, I know, beautiful.

[vapid plaza]

Better than mine 😄

[cunning iris]

Yours had a better chance of actually walking 😅

[vapid plaza]

maybe yours has extensive neck muscles

[scarlet garnet]

They're all really cool!

[cunning iris]

How much time collecting bones? 😆

I've found completing the catalogue is quite difficult...

(Or impossible at this moment, not sure)

[desert sun]

Hey you took my first fossil 🤣

[wheat grove]

around a few days, probably couple of weeks, each session last for few hours

[wheat grove]

its impossible to complete the catalogue, i think there's at least 5 bones you can't find in normal means

if they exist at all

[cunning iris]

Expedition too, right? The planet is the same I think lol.

[desert sun]

Yeah

[cunning iris]

Oh wow. I'm trying to fill a ship with them, but gosh it's hard. They are scarce, and I usually get duplicates...

[scarlet garnet]

When can you start finding fossils in game?

[cunning iris]

Planet's description when you scan it from space will say something like "Ancient Fossils" in the list of resources

[vapid plaza]

ive heard there's one that you need to get from the bone trader

[vapid plaza]

as soon as you find a planet that lists "ancient bones" / so it's luck based

[heady gyro]

Do you mean Gunter?

[wheat grove]

this ship of mine is carrying my dug fossils

[vapid plaza]

you can see the listing when you scan from space.

[scarlet garnet]

Ah ok, thanks again for the info! I'm sorry I'm asking so many questions, lol.

[cunning iris]

He drives a hard bargain... 🥲
(Takes whole stacks when you offer just one, that gotta be fixed)

[vapid plaza]

we're here to help. Keep asking.

[cunning iris]

lol, I'm using the Vulture. Seemed appropriate.

[scarlet garnet]

I ask my friend a lot of questions too, lol. He got me interested and intrigued in this game.

[wheat grove]

yea, i notice if one part of the planet have scarce amount of fossils, you might want to consider flying to another part of the planet

[toxic silo]

neat. 16 circles

[lament spade]

Do you have to trigger certain parts in the story in order for travelers to start appearing?

[vapid plaza]

That's how I ended up here too.
We bow our heads in gratitude to those who have cursed us 😄

[wheat grove]

i have a planet where i dig fossils, one part might have like 1-3 fossils on each cluster, but flying to another part of the same planet, you might get 7-10+ fossils

[vapid plaza]

nope. They are scattered. Soemtimes on planet, sometimes on station. explore further away if you arent finding any. And don't forget to check buildings on land too. Not always in stations.

I recently found a system with a dead planet with bones (and three other planets with bones) - easy pickings on a dead planet.

[scarlet garnet]

Right?! Lol. That creature is cute!

[cunning iris]

That would be a dream. I went to a giant's moon that was supposed to have them... found literally zero deposits.

[wheat grove]

i keep getting distracted with bone collection while exploring

[vapid plaza]

lot of waterworlds list them. i dont think they're discoverable on water worlds

[cunning iris]

Relics made the whole bone collection interesting, fortunately

[wheat grove]

Me: Just want to explore planet
Brain: This planet have fossils, go dig
Me: ... -Drive around with roamer to fossil bed, and 30 mins past by collecting fossils-

[cunning iris]

Yep, no idea how do you find them on those too. Perhaps on the tiny islands that they sometimes have?...

[wheat grove]

Something about fossil digging is quite satisfying and for some reason, never get tired of it

[cunning iris]

It's way way better than just selling the ancient bones from before... I actually caught myself wanting to do those Nexus missions to dig up bones lately

[wheat grove]

heh nice

i'm not sure if they gonna revamp salvaged scrap to something similar

[oak cove]

May the 4th be with you. ✌️

[ruby beacon]

I agree

[scarlet garnet]

May the 4th be with you as well!

[ruby beacon]

Some parts do look good

[dry shard]

I suggest ice planets. They have large deposits in my experience
Get yourself a nomad and just follow the fossils

[wheat grove]

I believe how dense are fossil bed is not dependent to biomes

i once found a fossil bed with 11 bones on a radioactive planet

[scarlet garnet]

I'll be back tomorrow, gotta hop off for now. Thanks for the help y'all!!

[junior stratus]

Where the hell am i gonna find runaway mold for autophage man...

I dont remember this

[safe tendon]

You can just refine it from what you can find on dissonant planets

[junior stratus]

I dont get those popups on ps5 for some odd reason

[toxic silo]

[sleek river]

i found a planet called Pusei yesterday 🧐

the name generation is accidentally pretty wild sometimes

[wheat grove]

[desert sun]

May the fourth be with you too traveler

[junior stratus]

[safe tendon]

You have to gather it for the recipe anyway

But I guess murder is a way too

[toxic silo]

JKsjhfs Ej!

You thought my stupid purple knife spun too fast before

okay i made myself dizzy

[paper badger]

I haven't played NMS since late march. Might get back into it soon. Kind of missing it lol

[unkempt wharf]

I didn't realize that was a black market upgrade and was wondering why they were "Ket heated pipes" 🤣

[junior stratus]

Space piracy > legit NMS money making :)

i will always rp as a space pirate

[toxic silo]

ahahaha yeah, when the name scrolls it gets funky

It's 49% which is good enough. I don't need a perfect 50%

I'd probably get sick

[elfin plover]

I wish there was a way to keep music playing in photo mode

[toxic silo]

no, you must submit to the abyss of sci fi ambience

[graceful grail]

w

[leaden salmon]

Not me having an actual dark space ambience playlist

[toxic silo]

Could be worse, I fall asleep to kmart reel-to-reel tapes

[leaden salmon]

NMS music is great though, I don't need to have any other music playing

[leaden salmon]

At least you don't fall asleep to steel pipes falling 10 hour version

Some people do but I won't judge

[toxic silo]

Oh. If you like the music, make sure to check out the band behind it

65daysofstatic

They were a thing even before NMS

[leaden salmon]

Oh wow

[toxic silo]

Sean asked if he could use a song of theirs for the reveal trailer

they went "what about all of it"

And now we have existential drums and bass and the piano

[leaden salmon]

Exactly what I needed

[toxic silo]

Always happy to provide a new rabbit hole

[toxic silo]

[safe tendon]

There should still be some ambiance playing in photomode

Tho it's not the same music you hear while exploring

I don't think I've heard anything else then this specific track/music tho

[elfin plover]

Is there no way to like, mark a mineral site as mined? Because I can't seem to get the game to stop showing a mark on my hud for a mineral deposit even when it's very much depleted

[safe tendon]

In the visor you mean? Yeah. Not much can be done about it. So either hop in your ship and fly a bit away to avoid mined deposits or mine more efficiently to get more per ground deposit

(Using smaller mining size yields more material per deposit)

[elfin plover]

Ahhhhh I see

A shame there's no way to manually mark a deposit as empty

[safe tendon]

Or invest in mineral extractors and never bother with mining by hand ever again

Not quite at that part of the game yet bwahahaha

Also wow yeah jetpack boosting is uh, very useful

Totally didn't take me 15 hours to figure out it was a thing!

[toxic silo]

the melee boost?

[elfin plover]

Yeah

[toxic silo]

Yeeeeeah

combine it with rocket boots and you're on the road to success

[elfin plover]

Anyways I should probably be focusing on my twitch stream not asking questions and yapping in here oopsie gjdjdjd

[toxic silo]

and by that I mean smashing into mountains and overshooting your ship by 500u

It's okay because the falling animation is hilarious, so it all balances out for the broken legs

[elfin plover]

The pain of spotting a floor panel where the wood grain is round the wrong way

Also I can't be the only one bothered by the fact the teleporters and storage boxes are too big to fit in a single wall height room without clipping right? Gjdjfj

so im tryin to use a save editor to change the species to hermit crab so i can summon it but idk what all to do since its greyed out

i have like 5 of em that i cant summon

[safe tendon]

Generally speaking save editing questions should go to #nms-modding as folks there will know best how to help

But if you can send a screenshot of how that "gray out" looks like to #nms-questions I can try to take a look and see if maybe there is another solution beside save editing

(Unless problem is caused by save editing then that's not really something I can help with)

[feral roost]

oki

Pretty evil weather tbh

[elfin plover]

Oh right I forgot this game was made by British people

[safe tendon]

What do you mean? 28°C is a heat hazard

[elfin plover]

I live in Oceania here 28 Celsius is a summer day

[split rapids]

it's 34 C in my place

morning guys

[elfin plover]

28C is a pleasant summer day frankly lmao

Perfect weather

And 18 C at night that's practically pleasant

[fluid mason]

I found my first paradise giant planet recently,but the colours were terrible, and I'm colourblind! So no base built there. Yuk

[steep quarry]

perhaps the colors were actually good but you couldn't see it, but fair enough if you didn't wanna build a base there

[vocal plinth]

so shouldnt i see a ship too here?

[sharp raft]

at first glance sir that looks like an || autophage camp || and not so much a || crashed sentinel ship || How did you find it?

[vocal plinth]

i explore disonant planets with fosils

yesterday i came across 2 one to another

on another planet

the one i made myself a base too

[sharp raft]

ah then yeah. I think thats || an autophage camp || You should be able to || reveal it if you've gone far enough in the story for the special scanner ||

[vocal plinth]

i also found a glyph near it

[sharp raft]

sounds like this planet is giving you plenty of things to check out!

[vocal plinth]

farming sentinel ships

[stiff warren]

thats a normal autophage wreck and occur all over like other salvage items. ||autophage camps|| are near normal poi but you generally notice extra dust as a hint to scan there. They are used in missions given by ||npcs in the autophage camp||

[vocal plinth]

there wasnt anything

this oen is too nice

best hauler that wotn get scrapped

[elfin plover]

Ok so the game has dropped me in front of what it defines as a "Derelict Freighter" but I can't land on it so uh, probably a junker one then?

[bronze gale]

The posts by Sean seem intriguing

I posted this in future but has anyone else jumped out onto their freighter then “swam” to a nearby frigate? It works

Definitely dangerous though, lose lotsa oxygen

[quasi summit]

is that the one I posted coods on the other day? it looks identical to mine

[quasi summit]

Nope, mine was Howelli - Weborou Amot

[vocal plinth]

this one is on a frozen planet

and a b rank

[quasi summit]

Ranks are weird. I joined with a guy hunting ships and we'd see different ranks one a ship while standing side by side

[vocal plinth]

bcs thats how it is

it spawns 2 ships

buuut

there are chacnes finding an s rank

but ye still not a dragon wing

[quasi summit]

They do LOOK very similar

[vocal plinth]

only diff urs is S mine is B

and i farm it and sell it

anything that aint a rank atleast or s is selled

[quasi summit]

I found mine as B, and upgraded it

I like the design

[elfin plover]

is it uh, normal to roll an S class freighter as your first freighter?

[languid violet]

Can I play with someone have to been on ps

[quasi summit]

Well you can play with anyone on any system really.

[sharp raft]

I would call that fortunate. Not the norm however. so congratulations!

[elfin plover]

well, my first freighter is S class

[quasi summit]

RNGesus has blessed you

[languid violet]

Oh

[quasi summit]

The only players you can't play with are those stinky Switch player (j/k)

If anyone is donating to the Cronus Marker, he has a real easy one today Impulse Beans > Bittersweet Cocoa.

I can’t

I need a friend code

Try #nms-lfg-or-trades For Looking For Group

[elfin plover]

Cannot believe my dumbass girlfailed myself into an S class freighter as my first one

[quasi summit]

Oh cmon.. women (or even dudes pretending to be women) getting free stuff or upgrades is like, embedded into the human genome

[elfin plover]

LMAO

Not from my experience tbh

Either way, wow, what a start

[quasi summit]

Either way, the key is. Is it the S-class with a design you want?

[elfin plover]

I mean, it looks cool, has plenty of upgrade slots, I'm not hecking picky

I mean it's the first freighter they give you for free for crying out loud

[quasi summit]

I doub't I would trade my A-Class Venerator for any S-class... Even a S-Venerator (because they are pointlessly larger)

[elfin plover]

Fair

I mean this is the first freighter I have gotten so uh

Not complaining

Starting off with a fancy pants freighter is uh, very neat

I'm holding out to find some Dinos

Not this 😂

[errant copper]

[vocal plinth]

smallest exploer ship

i jsut got an glyph froma traveler npc

[keen kite]

An eyeball??

[quasi summit]

Don't be racist xP

[elfin plover]

EYE

[keen kite]

Apologies. Now realise it's one of your companions

[quasi summit]

all good bro

[sleek quest]

A small venator is just as effective as a large one, we don't shame people here based on the size of their venators

[quasi summit]

Good to hear. but mine is mid size average

[sleek quest]

As long as it goes deep into wormholes its fine

All you need is a good hyperdrive range without using any external aids

[quasi summit]

All I need is the massive storage I can call on a dime. I never hyper while inside the freighter.. to me thats madness

[sleek quest]

It looks cool af

And helps you avoid pirate encounters

[quasi summit]

Avoid? Oh I want more stuff to shoot.

And not to lose Rep for it

[sleek quest]

I wish freighters were more effective in combat

[quasi summit]

You had an extra word in there "more"

Even the squadron of fighters that we can recruit is does very little.
Just collide into my own ship, block my shots from hitting the target and occasionally getting in enough damage to keep the enemy shields from regenerating.

[sleek quest]

Once you get Cyclone Barista and Infra Knife, space encounters just become trivialized

At that point the only purpose of squadrons and freighters is aura farming via photo mode

[quasi summit]

Even a souped up Photon cannon is easy mode.

See Pins in #nms-expedition & run !Expedition in #bot-spam

[north fog]

Yes, and yes

[wicked lava]

alr cool 😄

uh and also, how often do pirate dreadnought battles occur

[high kestrel]

Often

[north fog]

Assuming you've met all criteria for them to spawn it will be either a regular freighter battle (3 hours, 5 warps) in 3* or outlaw systems, or a guaranteed battle everytime you warp into certain outlaw systems

[quasi summit]

People like tiny ships?

[agile yew]

looks cool

[wicked lava]

uh what are the criteria

and how do i know which outlaw systems give a guaranteed spawn

[north fog]

Already own a freighter
Have done at least 2-3 freighter battles
Finished Ghosts in the Machine mission

[wicked lava]

yeah done all 👍

[north fog]

By warping in, checking if there's a battle
If there is, warp out and back in and check if it's there again

[wicked lava]

alr. people keep on talking about how if its not s-class, do smth about reloading restore point?

how do i do that

[quasi summit]

Save Scumming.. been around since The Oregon Trail

Save game, do battle, if not what you want, Load the save from Before the battle

[wicked lava]

i see. so uh, where do i even put my save beacon or whatever? on a planet in a different but close system right?

[quasi summit]

The game Saves each time you Exit your starship

[north fog]

Make a restore point by exiting and entering your ship
Warp to the system with the freighter you want
If not what you want (stats wise, model will always be the same for any given system) reload restore point
Repeat

[bronze tendon]

Is there a plant I can store in my inventory that'll power up my jetpacks for a limited time?

Like that blue plant on planets but able to store away

[quasi summit]

There is Food you can cook that will do that.

[wicked lava]

i can do that method with dreadnoughts?

[north fog]

Yes

[wicked lava]

but doesnt the game autosave?

[waxen palm]

Restore point is from exiting your ship or using a save beacon. Auto save is what the game does.

So, you restore the restore point, not the autosave

[wicked lava]

ohhh i see

[waxen palm]

The food Ingestor is hilarious

[wicked lava]

but first i have to go to the system with the frieghter battle and then warp back to make a restore point right?

[waxen palm]

No

[wicked lava]

then how do i even know if a freighter battle is in that system

[quasi summit]

I haven't actually used the device yet.

[waxen palm]

If it's inhabited, it will have a battle - provided you have fulfilled the requirements

3 hours of gameplay, 5 warps

Since the last battle

[waxen palm]

Typically people will make a save before each warp, then when you warp and have a battle you have a restore point. Now you can "window shop" by reloading that save and visiting other systems to see what model is being fought for.

[wicked lava]

oh yeah true

but i have to do the battle and then reload the save right?

[waxen palm]

Reload if you don't like the class yeah

[wicked lava]

cuz u have to board the frieghter to check the class i think

[waxen palm]

Yep, it won't save when you get out there though, the game won't save in unowned freighters

So you don't overwrite your restore point doing that

[wicked lava]

oh alr

thats helpful

[quasi summit]

Board the Freighter and then use your Analysis visor.. you can see the class and slots from the hangar

[wicked lava]

i found that out recently lol, but thx 👍

so basically, make a restore on each system, if u warp to a system and it has a frieghter with stuff u like, do the battle, board it, if its not s class then reload restore, if it is s-class then take it

is that right?

[waxen palm]

Yes, that will work

[wicked lava]

alr, cool, cant wait to get a new pirate dreadnought

uh do pirate dreads only spawn in outlaw systems?

[north fog]

Outlaw and 3* systems

[waxen palm]

No, but that's the best spot to look for them

Better chance on potential S class

[wicked lava]

alr

i want s-class pirate dread

so i might js skip normal frieghter battles

actually tbh they dont take long so i may as well js do them

[waxen palm]

Well, that resets your battle timer

If you aren't reloading I mean

[wicked lava]

oh true

ill skip normal battles then

[waxen palm]

If you are saving between warps, and get a normal battle - that's when you reload and start visiting Outlaw systems

Once you have that save right before the battle, every warp to an inhabited system will have a battle

[wicked lava]

do i need a conflict/economy scanner to see outlaw systems

cuz i hardly see any

[waxen palm]

One or the other yeah

[quasi summit]

If you want to complete the Expidition, you have less than 2 days. I would do that first. You can always Dread hunt later.

[wicked lava]

true

ill do the expedition after tidying my room lol

[lime haven]

Hi guys! There are beautiful captures in #nms-photomode-gallery needing more love! They only make it to #the-louvre if they have enough heart emojis. Self & non hearts don't count.
-# more info

[north fog]

ooooh funny button

[wicked lava]

if i end up finding a normal battle, can i reload to that same system and end up getting a pirate dread battle

[waxen palm]

No

[wicked lava]

oh

[waxen palm]

The model you see is tied to the system and will never change

[wicked lava]

so if i end up with a normal battle js reload save and go find outlaw systems

[waxen palm]

Yep

[wicked lava]

ok cool, really appreciate the help

[waxen palm]

No problem, good luck on your hunt

[wicked lava]

thx

[wraith bough]

Morning, everyone!

[waxen palm]

Morning Joan

[wraith bough]

Gotta start the Venice build today...i wish water in oceans wasn't as agitated as it is now xD

Not a big deal but its actually gonna look sunken sometimes lmao

[wraith bough]

Heya Gleam!

[errant copper]

This was meant to be a small base lol

[errant copper]

Now it's a spaceport apparently 😂

[wraith bough]

The landscapes here never get old, goddamit

[wheat grove]

[errant copper]

With a Stargate too

Lol

[wheat grove]

[waxen palm]

smol

I need my name one more time in the owner field

[quasi summit]

Starcraft style space platform?

[wheat grove]

Its a spaceport 🙂

while building up, i unintentionally made it look like a carrier

and i decided to keep it that way

[quasi summit]

Tucked away in a Outlaw system

I should have made it deeper.

[waxen palm]

Put sprinkles on that doughnut

[quasi summit]

There are pink and white sprinkles all around actually

[north fog]

Or doughnot
-# hehehehe

[waxen palm]

[north fog]

BANana sprinkles? Not my first choice but if that's what you like then sure

[waxen palm]

I don't want any sprinkles, I don't eat plastic

[wheat grove]

nah, its sprinkle hammer

[waxen palm]

But I have wanted to make one of those terrain types into a giant doughnut

[quasi summit]

Back in Vanilla NMS terrain formed donuts and resource deposits often looked like half dunked donuts

[wheat grove]

Nickel

[quasi summit]

Yeah those

[wheat grove]

there's once i found a place with 4 nickel deposits 😮

[viral forge]

i saw my companion drone hitting sentinels with a beam, blue i think. what it does? freeze them?

[quasi summit]

SCanner most likely..

[viral forge]

no combat abilities what so ever?

[quasi summit]

Just annoying all those around.

[viral forge]

😄 ok, that's unfortunate

[north fog]

DO NOT EVER SAY THAT ABOUT LAYLAPS AGAIN

[quasi summit]

Isn't his name Flare?

[north fog]

No

[viral forge]

laylaps is in lore, the patched sentinel i guess

[wheat grove]

[waxen palm]

I love laylaps

[old timber]

I am having such fun Telamon-NOT-Telamon! @waxen palm

[waxen palm]

You are in third person

[wheat grove]

at least that fauna didn't get ragdoll'd like what happened to an iridescent strider

literally gets yeeted
