Trying to reconnect [Question]

Had my first interaction with another player this evening on the Switch 2 but sadly I don’t have a mic yet. I could only communicate through gestures. Just wanted to know if he was in here? Think his tag was Jeffery?? American accent. Gave me some great stuff in my inventory and gave me a guided tour of his bases!

Love how great this community is!

Cuboid Rooms additions [Discussion]

Anyone else hope they add more cuboid room additions? I love the vibe of cuboid rooms and their sleek style, but I havent heard of them adding anything or planning to, I hope they do cuz I would love to see interior windows, alternate doorframes, a way to remove/control lights on the ceiling/floor tiles, and make the exterior a little nicer, since atm they just have the roof caps and painting one cube paints the whole thing, so you get pretty colors inside but what looks like something you'd find at the bottom of a LEGO bin on the outside lol, what do y'all think?

Short Range Teleporters in Bases [Question]

Does anyone else find it annoying that in order to link your short range teleporters in your base, you have to physically run a cable between them? I’ve been building a base underwater on an ocean planet with some pretty aggressive predator fish, and it’s been causing some significant delays in construction.

I’m currently switching up my configuration of teleporters and climbing back and forth on the ladders will soon be the death of me. Trying to link some new surface level buildings with the existing ocean floor and mid-ocean sections.

@Sean:

Can we create a short range teleporter hub we can deploy to the base like any other module, and manage the linkages? I think the only clunky bit would be identifying which teleporter is which, but you can get around that by allowing a player to name the objects.

Settlement crew is gone? [Bug]

I went back to my settlement (which I generally go to at least daily) and my overseer, farmer, scientist, armorer, and save beacon have mysteriously disappeared... I'm fairly new to nms and I know it's a little buggy, especially on Switch 2, which is where I'm playing. But is there anything I can do? I tried quitting to mode select, quitting and shutting down the game, staying in game and teleporting around, and they didn't load in any of the times. The quests tied to them are still there, but I can't progress in them since I can't find the people lol I also fell through the floor multiple times today for the first time since I started a few weeks ago. Always fun when fresh new bugs show up 🙄

Does the Black hole / core to core jump glitch still work? [Question]

Making my way through all of the galaxies and I saw a couple videos about using a portal to get close to the core then finding a black hole to get around 3000 LY from the center and then from then on when you go through the core you end up around 3000 LY from the core of the next galaxy.

Tried it a couple of times and when i get through the core i just get spit out of the fringe of the galaxy like normal. So just wondering if it was fixed or if im doing it wrong.

Come visit the Mimir Research Outpost [Screenshot]

Feel free to visit the research outpost. There’s a fantastic medical ward, room for crops, weapons room, a viewing station near the teleporter, and don’t forget to check out the Tower Club.

I know this opens me up to having some less then kind players come by, but I hope someone comes and enjoys the views. I’ve put quite a few hours into it. There’s a few rooms that haven’t been completed yet, mainly the two square towers on the left side of the photo, but it’s one of my favorite builds.

Can't find any dangerous life forms on deep ocean planets? [Question]

The farther down I go the more types of squids and crabs I find. Is there any deep sea predators that are actually dangerous? Sometimes I scan something and it'll say it's a predator but they are way too chill to be hostile towards me, literally bumping into them and they pay me no mind. On land I get attacked sometimes by predators so I know it's not some settings or something, am I unlucky?

Someone help an idiot. [Question]

I have been playing through NMS on the switch 2. I was following the Atlas quest making the little seeds and doing my thing. At some point I found a sentinel ship and it has been my ship. I sold my other ship for money to upgrade my suit.

Well, I “finished” the atlas quest and went through the green galaxy.

Now my ship it broken…. But it’s a setinal ship and I can’t fix it. I need things from corrupted planets to fix it. What can I do? I can’t take off from the planet I’m on because I can’t fix my ship.

Killed by tornado in permadeath - unexpectedly [Information]

I dug myself a deep hole to hide from it, yet it sucked me out it and threw me repeatedly against a mountain side. I recharged couple of times in the air but eventually it got me.

So don't think you're safe when you hide like this. Though I'm not sure if this could happen in real life, I'd assume that I'd be safe if the hole was narrow and fairly deep.

What drives you? [Question]

Preordered the game at launch and while it was underwhelming, I thought the concept was amazing. Eventually grew bored as 1.0 was essentially a one note pony. Hopped back on multiple times as more updates drop and I’ve gotten the platinum on both PS4 and PS5 versions and still will start it up every couple of months or so and play for a week or 2 but never religiously as I find myself falling into the same rut of what to do next. Salt mine to make chlorine and then I’m beyond rich. Buy a good ship and continue to create mines on planets within a reliable power source. Accrue massive amounts of resources then I always hit the same wall. Where to go next? I have always played single player as my brother and I account share and so I can’t usually log in with ensuring he’s offline. My question for the community is just that. What drives you to continue playing. I’ve been more active on Reddit recently and seeing all of the unique builds and updates always peaks my interest but I feel as I either pick up where I left off or start an entirely new save, I end up where I started. Does multiplayer change the dynamic or keep you focused? I love this game as the concept and execution of not only the worlds, but the scope of the universe are amazing. I think I just need help opening my eyes to what others see or advice on how to approach it differently to bring a new and fresh take on a game that I adore but feel like I’ve hit a wall.

My first pet that I was especially happy to feed and befriend. Please share your favorite early-game pets! [Screenshot]

Even in a pretty hot environment my jetpack wasn't stellar. It took a long time running and jumping to successfully offer the food pellet. It was so worth it. Shortly thereafter I died in a volcano. I think the reiteration was attributed to overconfidence, which was a nice way of saying I was dumb. It's okay, I was dumb. 😂

[Possible Spoiler] Quest "Distress Signal at Holo" (Main Quest) - Bug [Bug]

My first post so I didn't want to put too much info in the header and cop a penalty.

[Possible Spoiler - Main Quest]

  • Apollo has sent a distress signal to a Holo-Communicator.
  • When I go to the co-ords it appears to be inside two intersecting planets.
  • Is this just the plotline getting weird or is it a bug? When I go there I seriously glitch out.

Quick appreciation post [Information]

I'm a returning player, and I just noticed tonight that when your at a space station, that you can mark bases and stations as favorites. I have no idea when this got implemented, but this is something that I've quietly been begging for, for a very long time. It always bugged me that my station list (no matter how hard I tried) would eventually become cluttered with galaxies that I didn't care much for, or were basically just stepping stones i took in order to finish the story. Now I have an entire tab dedicated to all the places I love to frequent, without having to dig to find them. It's neat, tidy, and might as well have a bow wrapped around it. Thank you Hello Games. It means a lot to me/us.

Changing Difficulty Settings, Xbox [Question]

Greetings, fellow travellers. I'm pretty new to the game, even though I bought it a few years ago (just couldn't get into it, and gave up after visiting the 2nd planet in the tutorial).

I fiddled with the settings at the start of a new save, and it stated that some could be changed after the fact. I can't find the ability to do so anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or is it too late?

I think I selected the Normal mode when I started. Thanks guys.

Light Floor Color Changes or Bug? [Bug]

I just came back to the game after not playing for a couple of months, and Ive seen that Beacon has caused some issues for people when it comes to base colors, but the colors still usually exist, but the part looks different until you recolor it.

On my freighter and one of my bases, I've utlized a larger amount of light floors that I had colored red and white (which just made them very red). Now, however, they have the same appearance as the default light color (except a tiny bit lighter) and recoloring them wont fix the issue. Having the light floors red was important for the look of one of my bases, and there isn't another color option that really works.

I don't know if all of the light floor colors are different looking now, but another base I had uses some normal colored light floors, and now they look like how the unpowered ones did before the changes (so just really dim, not really glowing)

If I remember correctly, all the light floor colors would show the primary color of the option (so the big square color, not the small rectangle beside it) but now, the first half of the color options display the primary, and the second half displays the secondary, which seems to now inclue the red and white coloring.

Again, I have no idea if this is a bug or a change to how colors work forever, but I couldn't find anything about this specific problem being talked about, or light floor changes in the patch notes.

Performance issue on a goodish rig [Question]

Hi, i have my good 100~ hours in the game, but lately im noticing that i can't get good and stable fps under some circumstances. I have 36gb ddr4 ram, and amd 5600x and a nvidia 4080Super(i know the cpu is not powerful enough for the gpu but im waiting for the new pieces to come :') ) Im playing on 1440p res, and the game is really stutterish, in the atlas i reach 240fps that goes down as soon as I move too much, sometime i go even under 60 and it makes my head spin lol Are there ways to fix it? I tried already hignnum or something like that, cpu core selection, process lasso, vulkan dll update, dlss update and swap

Settlement building upgrades happiness effect [Question]

I had a settlement before the Beacons upgrade, all the buildings were B class when the update dropped and upgrading them usually had a 1% happiness increase. Now I have two new settlements, a regular one and a autophage one, and in both cases any building upgrades except the overseer office seems to have a -1% effect on happiness. I don’t really understand why this difference exists. Even upgrading a living unit decreases happiness…. That doesn’t make sense. Is this a bug? Or am I missing some intended idea….

#

I think one of the questlines might be bugged, and my game is bricked. [Bug]

I'm going through The Purge questline, and it requires you to warp around a lot.

Warping has been causing some heating problems since the last update but I think this specific quest is causing my entire console to shut down. The further I go down the list of glyphs that need to be collected the more frequent the crashes get, and now that I'm at 15/16 it poetically won't let me progress further.

I think it might be tied to the sheer insane amount of things popping into your screen at once when you warp, like the system overview, a mandatory asteroid field, a freighter spawn, some ships flying around, and then especially when you get the "Data Injection" message or if there's a planet in your line of sight which causes the planet summary to appear.

I deep-cleaned my PS, and reinstalled the game. Not sure what else to try other than wait for an update.

I changed galaxies... [Discussion]

I don't think completely breaking my entire ship, exosuit, and multitool is a great incentive to continue playing...

Settlement Landing Pad Function [Question]

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to use the landing pads in my settlement to find crashed ships. All 3 of the pads are at S-tier. There's no option, anywhere, to find a distress beacon. The only option I find is to call my ship; the original option.

Is there a secret to it?

My hanger is testing out a new material handling system [Screenshot]

Visiting ships come and go regularly. Why? Well it is to exchange cargo, allow the freighter to do the long haul transport, pick up stuff for local delivery, ... You know, commerce activities. Well the freighter hangar needs to look the part. So I've added a few bits of space station technology to the back wall of the hangar.

This is all for a mod I hope to release fairly soon. Now is the time to share your thoughts and influence the final mod. I'm not currently planning to add these features to the Pirate Dreadnought.

Low atmospheric planets [Question]

Hey yall,! I just found my 1st LOW atmosphere planet about 140 hrs in and its INSANE ! But heres the catch.. its an "empty" planet lol. And dissonant ! I literally didnt have to touch the ground it was awesome except the only goodies worth it looked like navigation data and those ancient goodie boxes you have to shoot 1st.

Can I farm this planet for those echo locators? I got one my first try then killed like a dozen and didnt get another can I only have 1 in ny inventory at any time ? So can I go back and farm that planet for em to just warp away and hit other systems for ships ?

Are there low atmosphere planets that have flora and fauna and aren't empty ?

Cheers :)

Where can I find NMS music? [Question]

I absolutely LOVE NMS music. It's everything I ever wanted for games about space. It makes you stop and just look around the system while in your ship in space, or look up to the stars in awe while on the surface of a planet...

When I started my first playthrough and got Radiant Pillar fixed, I didn't went straight to space. I started flying... And then I was just looking down at the planet from the clouds. Wanna know what song was playing that made me stop and contemplate?

Stare at the Sun.

It made a simple moment absolutely magical and unforgettable, I even have it recorded on my Switch. So with how much I love the music, I started to look for it online, especially looking for that song. And then that's where I hit a wall.

The main album you can find online is called "Music for an Infinite Universe", which don't get me wrong it's amazing. But it doesn't even come close to covering all the music inside NMS. There are other videos that put "ambient music", which is what you would hear when playing the game. Unfortunately, very often these videos are either incomplete, don't have the name of the song, or (and what bothers me most) the video is a long compilation of various songs.

I would like to find singular videos for every song in No Man's Sky, or a place where I can put only ONE song on loop, if at all possible. The best videos I have found so far are from a username called "Lupa Stance"; their videos are a long compilation BUT the songs are named and properly divided. It's how I discovered Stare at the Sun. Unfortunately it's still a long video with various songs, and I've been searching for a place where I can find individual videos for each song, with little success...

Sorry for the long post, I didn't expect to write so much. Any help would be appreciated

Question: Is there a way to see how much of the 3000 piece build limit you've used during constructing a base? I know it'll tell me when I'm over, but is there a way to check beforehand? [Question]

I normally build large bases, but want to make sure I don't exceed the limit bc I want the base to be uploaded. As stated before I know when I exceed then limit it'll tell me. Being able to keep track would let me know how far I can take the build. It's disappointing when I'm in the middle of building a new part of the base, just to find out halfway through that I'm over limit. If there's an obvious answer I've missed please feel free to share.

Is it that the game is "shallow" or is that we feel like we have no impact? [Discussion]

People post about the game being as wide as a sea and as deep as a puddle but we get all these new features and additions.

What if adding things isn't the answer to these players, what if things need expanded on?

They have this foundation set up for factions having conflicts and relationships with each other, likes and dislikes, cultures and history, and yet across the entire universe, everything is at a stalemate.

No matter how much a player or players build or destroy, conquer or create, no matter how many missions and how many pirates you fight, no matter how many sentinels you destroy in the system, it stays the same.

I have built turrets and such to go in settlements I own just for looks because being attacked so often makes me feel like there should be something you can do about it but there isn't, even if that meant just defending enough times meant theyd leave me alone eventually. But the game's ai does not behave in respect to the player or the other AI in the game.

You can can be fighting ten ships inside your dreadnaught's shield bubble and all it will do is sound an alarm and if it does fire, it deals no damage same as you squadron.

Why can't the player pick an allegiance like they can pick a role within the game when the foundation for it is all there? It's like they have avoided it out of fear of encouraging pvp when you can outright disable that in settings in the first place.

I don't want pvp but I do want to have an effect on the systems and factions I interact with, let us form relationships with our squadron beyond calling them when we need them, add some banter between each other or something some form of emotion.

Let us go on missions and expeditions for a faction, make standings mean more than they do.

It's no mans sky so I understand we can't just become Darth sidious and rule over...

Observatory concept [Discussion]

Not sure that this is something that would ever end up in the game but I think it could be a cool concept.

I think it would be cool to have some sort of stellar observatory that you could construct to help find specific planets. Something that would be a grind to set up but once complete could passively scan systems for planets with chosen traits (i.e. planet type, grass or sky color, specific weather types)

Ideally it would have to have a scan range limit, 100ly base perhaps, so that the exploration aspect of the game isn’t completely counteracted. Maybe having it upgradable to allow for multiple trait searches and expandable range could be a possibility too.

Then the more advanced the search, the longer it takes for the observatory to potentially find a planet/system with the “desired characteristics.” Not sure what would be a good search time but definitely something that would be quite the wait.

With the new autophage building and expansion to settlements I don’t think it’s too wild of an idea. Thoughts?

Using the end game scan item question [Question]

Hey folks, it's been a little while since I last played but have had the bug again the last couple of weeks. Anyway, I know how to find Harmonic Camps using the Echo Locators from Resonators however, it gets tedious fighting multiple enemies every time. I usually stock up on them as they can be used in any dis system.

My actual question though, is: once I have the Polyphonic Core Scan ability, can I use that to find those Harmonic Camps I know they find any Autophage location but if i can keep using it on a planet that has one of those places mentioned, will it find it? I assume it would but I don't want to waste hours searching for nothing.

Thanks in advance.

Somebody asked what is at the edge of the galaxy, here's how it looked in 2018 [Screenshot]

Back in 2018 there was a small area with stars you could not warp to on the outer edge of a galaxy, past that was the void. Because the sky basically shows the warp map you could also see the line between the galaxy and the void outside of it.

One of the updates (I forget which one) filled the void with stars you can't visit and removed this wonderful view of the night sky from the outer edge of the galaxy.

Max endgame Geology Cannon build "JACOBS LADDER" (showcase/guide) [Video]

Most are afraid of the grandiouse insidious power the geology cannon possesses, many fumble with one shot only to kill themselves accidently. Me? That's my bread and butter baby, sentineIs seethe if you know this secret. Let me show you 🫵😎

JACOBS LADDER (THIS IS AN ENDGAME BUILD!)

You will need an Atlantid staff or a sentinal weapon (they carry the max dps chart rates), preferably one with 4 adjacent super charged slots. Placing certain modules next to each other, adjacent, in different positions can yield different results. Experiment!!!

Shields! Shields! Shields! One hit normally without any upgrades can rinse your shields if you're not moderately armored. This build specifically two-shots even through max shields. Although it is possible to tank about four hits within the vicinity, but those shields would have to be supercharged within that instance. Better get them maxed out (preferably 33% and above minimum recommended) or else it's gonna feel worse than getting stuck with a plasma grenade in halo. You know how that goes ragdolls away.

Autophage exosuit upgrades!! This is one of the high bars that call for this build, as it provides a secondary layer for your sheild support, but also boosts your health bars. Giving you a better and optimal experience not having to worry about the anxiety of blowing yourself up. Obviously you would want a four stacker supercharged buff, where health, shield, life support and another roll are included. 30% minimum recommended upon health and shields.

You will need to max out all your jet packs! (Not just "S class", but instead illegal pirate goods!). With those at your disposal, you're able to roll random upgrades that can exceed even S class parameters! Obviously rolling these upgrades will vary, as it took over a good few hundred rolls even for me to get these heavy stats. For this build...

Cross save and expeditions [Question]

Hello travelers! I started NMS earlier this year and I mainly play on PS5. I really wanna get the older expedition rewards but I know you can't on PS systems. However I was wondering if I could transfer my PS5 save file on a PC, start an expedition and then transfer back my save file to my PS5 so I can enjoy it? Thanks for the help!

Controller not working on Mac M2 [Question]

I'm using an 8bitdo Pro 2 Controller on my Macbook Air M2 and Steam says that NMS supports my controller but it won't work in the game. I've tried disabling steam input, running it through big picture mode, and using community layouts.

Anyone else encounter this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Purple systems in abandoned mode [Question]

Ok so me and my friend were wanting to play nms and we decided to play abandoned because we wanted the lonely feel of the game and to build an Awesome base specifically in a massive ocean on one of the planets in a purple system but we quickly realized that we couldn’t get into purple systems. Sorry about the rant, but does anybody have any ideas about how we could possibly get into purple systems

Is multiplayer possible? Co-op, with 2 people? Finding Conflicting info. [Question]

I have googled this to death but the posts are so old that I cant get a relevant answer. Alot of the answers are simply no multiplayer which seems to be not correct now. Now I read other saying, you can play together but you cant progress together... which seems not great.

Is 2025 June , is there a way to play together with a friend, starting from scratch and continuing to progress as a team, build bases nearby, or share one, etc.?

Planet/System Discoveries glitch on the Atlas Parh [Bug]

For some reason, when I visit a system that contains an Atlas Interface, that system and all the planets I visit in it are not appearing in my discoveries menu. I can go back to the system via teleporter (under recently visited systems), but the system continues to not appear in the discoveries menu. Systems that do not contain an Atlas Interface are working fine, however. Is this a bug? How can I fix it? I have restarted the game, scanned the planets, left and come back to the system, visited the system’s hub, landed at a minor settlement; no luck.

Cross saving issue - lost settlement? [Question]

I started the game recently on my Switch. I got the game on steam in the Summer sale and connected the accounts.

I played on steam on discovered my first settlement. I built a few buildings and started making the people happier.

I saved and went back to the switch. My character was standing in a hole with my starship parked in the air above me. No more settlement and no way to warp to it. Is this normal when cross saving? I spent a lot of time on Steam building up the settlement and I’m a bit frustrated that it disappeared when I went back to the switch. I confirmed the cloud save and all that.

Is this common?

Couple of Noob Questions [Question]

New player here, I simply had a couple of questions I was hoping someone might be able to clear up for me;

I had absolutely no idea what I was doing on my first go-round (with less than 20hrs into it), and I have since moved on to a second attempt with much more success. However, when I look through the discovery tab I see that I've visited 5 different star systems. I know for a fact that in this second file I have only traveled to one other system beyond my original spawn point; would the discovery tab show all star systems I've warped to across multiple save files? Where did these three new (discovered) systems come from?

My SO and I are enjoying totally different aspects of the game, and play at different times on the same play-through. But, during her exploration she sometimes stumbles across something she thinks I might want to check out later. Can someone explain the difference between a save beacon and a save point? And, I'm aware you can rename (and set colors) for some of them, but I'm not sure exactly how to do it?

Thanks all, happy exploring!

Anyone else share this complaint about lighting? [Question]

I have certainly gotten my moneys worth out of this game, so I’m not trying to trash a great value and one of a kind game. However, since they changed rooms to auto brighten, I don’t really enjoy base building anymore. I understand why they did it, since it was previously hard to light rooms. Now it feels impossible to have dark rooms or rooms with ambiance though, which feels like a downgrade imo.

I enjoy other aspects of this game still, but base building is something I’ve sunk a lot of time into. Now my bases just don’t feel the same. When I walk into a room and it automatically looks like filtered sunlight is coming in, regardless of the time of day, it completely changes the vibe. I’m sure some people like this feature, when your bases serve more of a pragmatic function with less anal attention to aesthetics (which isn’t an insult—there are lots of ways to play this game). I think this should have been a toggle option.

Sometimes changes can be really frustrating in this game, particularly when they undermine things you’ve put a lot of work into. I mostly just needed to get this off my chest even though it’s an insignificant first world problem.

I wish I could still fall from my freighter to the planet below [Discussion]

It was one of my favourite things to do. I would purposely moore my freighter close to a planet (usually above one if my bases) and then jetpack off into a fall to the surface. It was both relaxing and scenic. For a while you could still jump off one of your fleet ships but now that doesn't work either. Very rarely I can achieve a fall but 99% of the time it spawns you back to wherever your starship is. Why would they remove something so fun in a game that is marvelled for having very little rules? Come on HG...let us fly (fall). It's fun 🪂

First real base attempt [Screenshot]

Hey! Im new here. This is my first real base attempt. Paradise planet, next to a lake, pink sky + a planet orbiting in the sky.

I like the context very much but there is still a lot to think about to make the base itself better. Mostly inner decoration. Idk, its just not easy… I feel its all clumsy. Like all stations just there, around. No real harmony.

I hate that there are not salvaged panoramic windows so mixing the wood panoramic with regular salvage just doesn’t make sense..

I still need to add the exocrafts and 2-3 ship pads.

A favourite thing to do – or is it just me? [Discussion]

One of my favourite things in this game is just boosting around on low gravity/airless planets, gathering Larval Cores by the dozen. I can get caught up in it for half an hour or more. Dunno why, but I love it – just zooming around in the sky (you can get up a real turn of speed), spotting eggs, swooping down and popping 'em with my mining beam, grabbing the core then whooshing off again before the monsties can do a big hairy deal about it. I've found a dissonant planet I can do this on that's also full of Radiant Shards, so I come away with thousands of nanites once everything's been refined down.

It ain't the quickest way to farm for nanites, but it's certainly relaxing and enjoyable. Anyone else do this or is it just me?

Even as a long time On/Off NMS player, this game continues to blow my mind. (Context in desc.) [Screenshot]

I found an amazing frozen planet in an uncharted system, and so I set about trying to find all the critters to upload the logs. One of the last ones was nocturnal and it was about 7pm local time according to the scanner so I sat back for a short break & a drink.

I couldn't figure out why the skies weren't getting any darker at around midnight, until I had a thought to check where abouts on the planet I was standing. I was basically on top of the north pole. They actually made it so that parts of the planet are always in perpetual daylight because of axial tilt!!

I just thought that was pretty cool and wanted to share.

Need Cities or hubs? [Question]

Hi guys !!!

Playing this game for a while, got my settlement to S - Been playing on my own for a long time and I feel that the anomaly (only) is just to small for us.

Would be cool if we had like a System with big cities and hubs for us to meet/craft/buy/sell/purchase stuff. Like with 2-4 planets and a few POI cities where we could do some cool stuff around. Like selling/trading ships/items. Filled with players for us to meet and chat/learn. See crazy stuff (which I love btw, every time I see something new on a player at the anomaly lol)

I understand the game vastitude (galaxy/planet size) but I still feel that this is something that lacks in my heart while I play.

What are your thoughts?

Updates i would love to see to the game [Discussion]

I've been thinking recently of updates that NMS could really use, and one in particular I would love to see is a massive update to freighters and frigates.

While I'm quite content with freighters for the time being, and think that the overall gameplay aspect of them is fine and very convenient, I think it would be cool to be able to captain more than 1 of them (this is solely on account of the fact that I lost my Dreadnought freighter - my very first one at that from shortly after I started playing NMS - when that massive game-breaking bug was released a while ago that wiped people's freighters from existence, and it was replaced by the devs with just a standard one that I've worked hard from scratch to expand and upgrade. Very grateful for the replacement, but understandably kind of peeved to have had to start all over again and lose a valuable vessel to the depths of bug oblivion)

As for Frigates, however,

1: While you can teleport aboard and sort of "explore" them, they're completely devoid of any crew, and the interiors are very limited and non-functional. None of the doors, panels, or anything else actually serves a functional purpose beyond aesthetics. I would love to see more functionality and actual crew on board.

2: While you can upgrade their class via sending them on expeditions to have encounters, it would be awesome to be able to have a hand as captain of the entire fleet in manually upgrading frigates like you would a ship with technology upgrades to, say, increase the likelihood of finding rare objects, or greater amounts of units/nanites, or overall better systems to be able to go on 4 or 5 star missions. Something like that.

3: The one time upgrades you can make for expeditions is a great system in theory, and i'm all for keeping it, but I admittedly rarely, if ever, use it simply because I find i don't need to. Yeah, it's convenient, but...

Destroying Pirate Dreadnoughts help [Question]

Whenever I take out the shield, it immediately surrenders. I want to upgrade my Capitol, but this is proving difficult.

I initially disable hyperdrive so they can’t escape, I then go down the right path, destroy all shields and battery. I then fly to the adjacent lane and take out the shields and battery and then it surrenders.

I tried taking out all but 1 anti-freighter cannon and then destroying the core, but it surrenders again.

I’m putting out decent damage. At the point of taking out the shields, the friendly freighter has 90% hull health.

Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be highly appreciated.

One of the fixes from the bug fixes was that they fixed that you could no longer place base pieces w incorrect textures. This has ruined so many of my base building projects and as well already existing base projects. Not only that, the update has changed textures on some of my already existing bases.

Is it worth playing the game with minimal graphics settings? [Question]

I'm asking just because I think this game is supposed to be both interesting and beautiful and if I play it with the lowest graphics I will like miss out on a lot.
It's like RDR2, where the gameplay is great, but the graphics are about 50% of why the game is so good and that's why there's almost no point in playing RDR2 on the lowest graphics.
So I would like to know your opinions on whether the graphics really affect the atmosphere and I should wait until I have a better PC or whether the graphics in the game don't really matter and it's fine to play with the lowest settings.

Farming space whales - one per system, total, or one per system per player? [Question]

Having seen another member's screenshot of a pod of space whales, I figured I'd like to jump on that bandwagon and have started farming them.

I read somewhere (possibly here, possibly the wiki) that each system has a single space whale. Is that in total, and it's first come, first served (so my chances are improved in undiscovered systems), or is that per player (and it doesn't matter if a system has been discovered)?

How randomized are the procedurally generated elements? [Question]

I just started playing No Man’s Sky and was wondering about the randomness of planets, fauna, flora, and minerals. How often do you come across very similar-looking planets and the things on them? I'm asking because, while everything might look slightly different, the differences may not be noticeable enough to make any planet feel truly unique, so you might end up getting bored seeing the same-looking things.

Has anyone else seen this happen? [Screenshot]

This is the result of switching from my save with a Pirate Dreadnought as my freighter to another save where I have an Oculus Freighter. I used the in-game "Mode Select" option to switch between saves. My Oculus now has the pirate hangar (exterior and interior) along with the Pirate Bridge interior.

A rare event and I'm asking to see if others have also experienced this.

This game is exactly what I wanted. [Discussion]

Grabbed it for just $20 on the Steam Summer sale. As someone that loved games like Starbound and the space stage of Spore the vast universe of this game is scratching that space exploration itch.

Seamlessly changing from planet to space and back to planet again without a loading screen is incredible.

Finding out about the galaxy map was an incredible moment when just tinkering through settings while in my ship.

Now I just need to get my hands on a hyper drive to get to some other galaxies to find a planet to settle on.

Can I change to relaxed mode to get through the quest lines quicker, then back to normal? [Question]

I haven’t played NMS in ages but I’m happy to be back on the steamdeck this time!

I basically want to rush through the quests so I can get to purple systems asap without too much of a grind. I kind of view the quests as tutorials in a way. I’ve never played on anything other than normal mode, but can I switch to relaxed mode to get through the quests quicker, then back to normal once I’m done with them? DOES relaxed mode make it quicker? Is there a better way to do this?

How do the updates come/work in NMS? [Discussion]

I play through Steam on MacOS.

It's been pretty much a month since the bugs got released.
How long does HG usually take to fix things?

I'm tired of the light and fog glitches and the random crashes I've been having since the June 4 update. It ruined the game pretty much.

I'd expect that the most obvious crap would be fixed within a week. But here we are 3+ weeks later and it's still a glitchy unenjoyable mess.

Settlement pathing is broken, missions are weird. Fog and light issues all over the place. The water is flickering during day time. Half the time the game just straight up crashes when I click to load my save.

How does HG go about this? Are they always slow? Or how does that work?

ExoSuit Slots - How fast to you completely fill them [Discussion]

On a normal play how long does it take you to fill both tech and storage slots on your exosuit? Do you fill either tech or storage first or some form of alternate filling. Like 1 Tech and 5 storage. Do you actively search and buy upgrade charts for drop pods or just grab slots from stations?
Personally, I make a base on the starter system, find a minor mission that has upgrade charts and look from drop pods on my home base planet. I do this until I have maxed T&S, then I continue with main story/quest lines.

PSA: Get marsh planets w/o big ugly trees with this trick [Screenshot]

Do you love the marsh planet vibe but hate how they always have big ugly trees? Anytime a marsh planet is generated with floating islands, all the big ugly trees disappear! (based off my observations of 3 marsh words all having no big ugly trees due to floating islands)

If you're looking to up your chances on finding a marsh planet, check out green systems. Regular yellow/blue systems have a decent chance, purple systems have a lower chance, and red systems have the worst odds.

Hope this helps someone! I've been playing since Feb and I didn't know this. Marsh planets can have paradise like weather and temperature (safe), and can be a very good alternative to lush planets. They also often have dark grass, including dark grey grass (almost black!).

Happy travels friends.

After researching online and testing in game, I have a definitive answer on how to save Apollo. [Question]

After researching online and testing in game, I have a definitive answer on how to save Apollo. In the Artemis quest line, there are 2 conversations that the player has with Apollo where choosing the wrong answer WILL result in Apollo's death.

In order to save Apollo: You must give Apollo the Portal Glyphs when they ask so that he can follow you through.

If you don't give Apollo the Portal Glyphs then they will go through the Portal anyway using random a random combination of Glyphs and become lost between worlds exactly like Artemis. (Glyphs are coordinates of star systems) After Apollo follows you through the Portal, they will ask you if "Money and doing what is told" is all that matters. You must select "No" or "I Don't Know" for this question.

If you choose "Yes" for this question, then Apollo dies and the Atlas tells you "Apollo followed you through the portal, but you did not do enough to help them." This is due to the fact that Apollo just found out he is not real, he had just gone through the portal and met the Atlas. Apollo learning that all he has done, was for nothing. It is The Player's companionship and guidance (through these two conversations) that saves Apollo from losing himself just as Null did when he too found out all his life work was for nothing.

I never knew you could save Apollo until the Atlas told me I failed to save Them. I had always loved this game and had always done what I could to bring Artemis back from the space between worlds, only partially succeeding as he ultimately ends up still lost just in a different place, stuck in an endless loop of searching for someone. Aren't we all though? Aren't we all lost in an endless loop searching for something.

Unrelated, I had a pretty interesting idea about Null. What...

alright keyboard Einstein's since reading run on sentences is obviously to hard for youre IQ level so I have fixed it to a cave man level 🤷 considering the game it self has run on sentences after eachother "Have an idea: gas giants have a very extreme but diverse terrain and quality. Some gas giants in real life are close to absolute zero, and some rain diamonds and crystals. Sideways or rains magma, or a solar storm makes the temperature increase significantly. It can also make earthquakes that shift the ground, and a damaged entity's dome, or, if you fly too fast or recklessly, you get an animated crash. Could this be for everywhere? Maybe some flowing rivers or streams on some planets; others, it's a dried riverbed. Another good small base would be a small damn with an aquatics trader and tech merchant along these rivers and streams. Maybe some snow-capped mountains if there are high enough snow, realistic environments. Sand is kinda heavy to move through; some quicksand near water. Some mud or swamp planets where there is either sink into a cave, mud, or super slow, you down mud. Maybe the freighter's could use some work. Interior-wise, should be a little more immersive and some more extra weather, like a tsunami using those new water textures, which are beautiful. By the way, or maybe a flash flood, or a drought, or water spout, better under water features, like thermal vents, volcanoes, hot spots, minerals. And maybe, could have solar and lunar eclipse events for moons. People would eat it up as a feature of used on gas giants to kind of expand a little. Maybe some rock slides or avalanches where you have to use the terrain tool to dig out. Or maybe some planets have a small asteroid moon that'll crash down and have rare and expensive minerals. Can make it like a timed thing, where, if you don't get there fast enough, the minerals oxidize or expire, and there are no longer available in this...

Mechanical Animals Planet - Location [Information]

After a few days of searching (I had bad luck), I finally located a mechanical creature planet. In the screenshot is one of the creatures you can tame. I've set up a small outpost base for anyone to use, helping with the acquisition of your new pets. Attached are some screenshots of the coordinates and other information. If you need help with coordinates, please Google it. I am a newbie and don't understand the game fully to be able to help others.

Galaxy Coordinates- SAZH:0C98:007E:0301:00EF
Planet Name: Mechanical Animal Zoo
Galaxy: Galactic Core - Euclid Galaxy
Glyphs: Not yet found the teleporter. When and if I find it, I will leave it in the comments.

Hoping this helps anyone hunting for these unique pets.

Memorial in game [Screenshot]

Hi people, how are you? Today it is 3 months since I lost my father and decided to honor him in the game by making a simple and basic memorial, because I do not have much creativity and ideas to do. He loved these things of space and aliens and I think I ended up enjoying the theme also because of his influence. Anyone who wants to visit and leave a tribute will leave the glyphs. I accept tips too!

S Class MT Farming [Question]

Hey guys,

Wondering if I can get some guidance, new-ish to NMS and would like to farm S Class MTs. I've got a 3 star system which station's cabinet has an A class in it. I've gone to each planet and reloaded the pools and found a MT I'd like as an S Class. Now do i just need to find minor settlements until I find the S Class cabinet? Is the cabinet guarenteed to be on planet and I just need to find it?

Any info would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to waste time

it's 1:30 AM and I can't stop thinking about the bases built by Travelers who have passed away [Discussion]

I can’t stop thinking about all the bases scattered across the stars in NMS. Especially the ones built by players who aren’t here anymore.

I keep wondering if their legacy still kinda lingers. Like, when we stumble across some quiet little shelter or majestic base that you can tell "someone must've put enormous hardwork for this thing", haversting all flora or maybe there'sa storm and we decided to take a shelter, maybe we’re feeling a small piece of who they were.

It’s strangely comforting to know that in this infinite NMS universe, something they created is still out there, just waiting to be found again. Like a silent reminder that a Traveler once called that place home and put some hardwork here.

Idk, just needed to share this late night thought. Safe travels, everyone. Hope we can keep their memory alive every time we explore.

Thoughts on rock formation variety and ongoing issues with purple systems [Discussion]

Warning: critical thinking/constructive feedback ahead. Please wear your "I love NMS and want it to be better" positive hat but feel free to voice critical opinions!

No Man's Sky planets can feature geometric rock formations. Since NEXT, these appear as either: cubes spheres disks columns cones saddles arches "snakes" "floating islands"/"lily pads" (squashed half-spheres)

Sometimes the columns have a rounded top. Sometimes the columns or cubes are hollowed out (hole in the top that's the shape of the formation, just smaller). Soemtimes there is a square base on a cone, column, or sphere. I've also seen a round base on a sphere in a purple system recently. Sometimes the floating islands look like "melted pancakes" as if they melted down across the terrain. Sometimes they are connected to the ground by a rock base, sometimes they are floating.

The rock formations can also have their dimensions skewed, especially if on a sloping hillside. So for example, the cube can look more like a parallelogram.

However, in prior versions of NMS, these rock formations could take on much more varied shapes. You could find floating rock formations that looked bizarre and alien. Resource deposits for gold/emeril/etc. could form crazy formations as well. And modding has revealed that the game engine is capable of creating almost any imaginable shape for these rock and resource formations.

But NEXT made all the resource formations into little puddles on the ground, perhaps because they get rendered after the rest of the terrain and so, people's ships could get stuck inside once "low flight" was enabled.

NEXT also reduced the complexity of the large rock formations, so you never see some of the crazy stuff the engine is capable of doing, which we often saw in Atlas Rises and prior versions.

Overall, NEXT has 10 terrain templates. Every...

What do YOU do that most probably don't? [Question]

Everyone seems to farming something, hoarding something, building something, just flying around exploring, some are traders some are pirates...

What do you do that you think other people probably don't? Is there any roles you've created for yourself that the game doesn't outright give you that you thought of?

For example, there's players who act as tour guides for others or more like taxis taking players places and back.

crazy update idea - control and battle for space stations [Suggestion]

What if we could control space stations and use our ships to battle other stations?

Once you control a space station you use your collected spaceships to wage war against another nearby station to control it. - The better grade your ships and number of ships the higher chance of you winning - The higher economy class the station you're attacking, the higher chance you loose - Winning means controlling the station. -Losing means you risk losing the ships you've assigned to battle.

Of course relationships with factions could make things more interesting.

I feel this gives more purpose to collecting ships than just status.

Thoughts??

Journey to the last galaxy! [Question]

What are your best time saving tips for making the journey to the final galaxy? I don't want to just be brought there, so I'm slugging it out like a caveman haha. I've been locating a portal with my roamer, doing all the sunshine glyphs, warping to center, and building a base at some point so I can travel back later. (I've been considering cutting this out, but I really wanna have access to them all haha) I was buying new ships every time and selling my busted one, but that's not great. So I've just been repairing an explorer with long hyperdrive range. I timed my last journey from landing on a galaxy and warping to the next at 23 minutes. However, this was on my Switch, so load times were super slow, and I had to try the monolith puzzle 3 times before getting it. I'm sure it will be faster when I'm playing on my PS5. That's still a lot of hours haha

Is this the rare S-Class Freighter? [Question]

I picked up the game for the first time since 2018 for the steam summer sale and got 5 hours into my first play-thru. During a nexus mission I ran into my first freighter and boarded it, when talking to the captain I saw it was "S-Class" and I heard that was rare or something, I had enough units to purchase it (not get it for free) and I got it for 10M Units. I am now realizing that this is very small compared to the other S class freighters I saw on guides or reddit or the wiki, and am wondering how the system works: did I get one of the best freighters or do I just use this one to grind for an actual good one. I know this isn't a "Capital" freighter but if i upgrade it can I make it the same? What would you guys do here I'm so lost.

Trying to find meaning in Abandoned Mode [Discussion]

Hi! 1300+ hours in NMS and just getting around to my first abandoned playthrough. Trouble is, I don't get it. I mean, I get what abandoned is. I am aware there are no other sentients and all bases and stations are unpopulated.

What I am trying to find is a reason to play it. It seems aimless and I need a goal. Maybe I am just stuck in my aforementioned hours in populated galaxies and not seeing the big picture. Is it just a mode that adds a different kind of survival difficulty for players? It would help to hear from some players why they enjoy abandoned, what drives you to get out there, and is there an "endgame" I just can't see through my rose coloured visor?

Switch Cross-save/Restore Question [Question]

I sold my Xbox Series X back to GameStop for $420 and used the money towards my Nintendo Switch 2.

Before I sold it, I mostly accepted that any progress for my XSX games was a loss even if they were ever to be ported fully to the S2. After the launch, the new S2 upgrade was announced with full cross compatibility!

My question is, is there any way to access my account? I only ever played on my Xbox is there anyway to find my account online?

I didn’t play a ton but I earned a lot of expedition rewards and I was hoarding a lot of quicksilver. The game is one of my favorites even if I have to start a completely new journey from here on out, but I figured there might be something I don’t know!

I love this game [Screenshot]

I started No Mans Sky 4 weeks ago, giving it a chance since i got a new pc and i was really curious how so many people are still playing this game, like it must be good then.

Gotta say this game became a favorite.
I didnt build a real base yet because im still looking for the perfect planet, but i already have a favorite ship called "Mirror of a Duck" right behind me with that piece of shit gek trying to start a fight with me. I have a very cool looking sentinel ship too called "Duck Storm".

Im planning on becoming an autophage by creating a story for it, but i love my character a lot currently so we can meet by accident like this because in the next few hundreds of hours im playing with him.

So yeah, im looking forward to discover a lot more things this game has for me. I also cant wait for Light no Fire, it looks amazing already and i can only assume how good it will be compared to no mans sky.

Have a great day to anyone reading this!

I'm glad I came back [Discussion]

Hello everybody! My first time posting here, and anywhere NMS-related, but I've had some thoughts I wanted to share. Delete if not allowed and all that.

I was (probably like everyone else) one of the first release players for NMS when it initially came out. Bought the limited edition pre-order pack, and was counting down the days until launch, y'know, the whole deal.

For the first few days, I put away my phone to focus on the game, and I had fun! Did my own thing, but... something was missing. It felt empty in a way that I couldn't put my finger on. So I returned to the interwebs, hoping to find an answer of some sort and was overwhelmed by how badly other players were taking the initial release of NMS. All the negative memes like "No Man's Lie", lengthy breakdowns on all its flaws, you know. Just an absolute shite-show.

I can't lie and say it didn't get to me. Try as I might to return to the game, I started to see the things wrong with it more than the aspects I liked. The things that once brought me joy started to create only a sense of disappointment. Eventually I gave up and stopped playing altogether.

I ignored everything to do with NMS like a scorned lover (Lol) and I practically haven't touched the game until yesterday. I didn't know about any of the updates or just how hard NMS devs were working to improve their game.

And boy, am I glad I gave it another chance. I don't know what dev-witchcraft the team did but it's phenomenal. There's so many new things, it's almost overwhelming! I really have to express how thankful I am to the dev team for NOT abandoning NMS like I did. They couldve washed their hands of it after the release, but no, they stuck with it. I can't express my admiration enough for that type of dedication.

I feel a sense of guilt for not having faith in NMS like I did during the first few weeks of release, and for letting all the haters convince...

Combination Lock Help [Question]

Hello,

A year or so ago I came across a video on YouTube about making a combination lock of sorts and I used it as a guide to make some at 3 of my bases. The premise was that each wrong button goes to the first power inverter, the first button in the combo went to the 2nd inverter, so on and so forth for each of the 4 buttons in needed to unlock the door. If you hit a wrong button the first inverter would cut power to the rest and only hitting the buttons in the correct order would activate the next inverter until you eventually opened the door.

Since the Worlds updates, I can't recall if it specifically was 1 or 2, hitting any wrong button now causes power to go through the entire chain, unlocking the door. Hitting the intended buttons, still works but it is kind of useless when 5/9 buttons instantly opens the door. I am wondering if anyone can point me to any newer resources on how to resolve this? I played around some with no success and I am planning to try some more but if someone has already solved it I'd appreciate finding out.

Thank you!

RP Perspective & General questions [Question]

Hey travelers, in lieu of some other posts I've saw recently , i went through an emotional rollercoaster and, I'm asking, what do you guys do to make this game fun for you? Do you enjoy trading and taking your time? Do you make 78 goals and objectives in your mind and forget what you were mining? Lol.

I find myself taking it slow, but tbh it has gotten a tad boring from time to time. So it's time to change perspective. Only 150 hours in and having a blast, I'm a wow pvp fan, and new dad and games these days are tough to pull me in anymore.

Not nms tho, I love it and keep getting drawn back because of the ease and simplicity and sandbox format.

I'm thinking a cool cave base or find a deep water planet like that other post that looked wicked!

Any of yall VR? Thinking of getting a rig just for this.

I still have a c class freighter but I'm thinking I should keep it maybe? What do yall think? I have about 130 mil units.

My one and only save might be lost. [Bug]

I just made this reddit account and I have some problems on my main save. I’ll put 2 videos on what exactly happened and I’ll explain it as well. The first one where I’m in my ship is me at the bounds of a system. I wondered what would happen if I went really far away in a system from the planets. And the nearest planet to me was 28.500 ks away from me. And when I looked at the time with pulse engine to go back, it was 10 minutes. So yeah I’m REALLY far and after I enter pulse and exit, boom. That black and white screen you see in the video appears. The menus are fine but in game is absolutely broken. I tried closing the game, tried reloading the save and none fixed my issue. At the second clip I realized that it was probably bc the game’s graphics was bugged out. And you can see my character and my ship there after I dug down. So its bc of the ambient graphics I assume. Idk what I can do but I think there’s only one solution. And thats deleting the save. Please help me find a way to fix this I beg 🙏🙏😭😭

cant get living ship [Question]

I’m trying to get a second Living Ship in No Man’s Sky, but my new Void Egg won’t activate. I already completed the original Starbirth quest and got my first Living Ship a while back. I just spent 3,200 Quicksilver to buy another Void Egg from the Quicksilver shop, but no matter what I do, it won’t trigger the quest. I’ve warped to over 10 different star systems with the egg in my inventory, but nothing happens—no anomaly, no whispering, no mission pop-up. I’ve tried warping in both regular and exotic systems, made sure I have inventory space, and even visited the Anomaly again, but still nothing. I’m wondering if there’s a cooldown, or if there’s some extra step I’m missing to activate the egg a second time. Is there a known bug or workaround to start Starbirth again? Or does the Void Egg only work once per save unless you reset something? Any help would be seriously appreciated.

Help me get more acquainted with the lore [Discussion]

I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky off and on since day one, my main save even has access to the boltcaster SM upgrade. However, due to life getting in the way I’ve had several long periods of time where I wasn’t able to keep up very well with updates and I’ve now realized just how much the story has changed over time? The entire main quest line is much different now than it was day one, plus we’ve had so many updates with this evolving Void Mother storyline among others.

With that being said, I was hoping some of you more dedicated travelers would be able to point me and others who are interested to more comprehensive posts or YouTube videos explaining the lore which this game has so much of. Or just comment about pieces of lore that you find interesting/ that others may not already know since so much of it is locked behind planetary archives and Atlas Pass V3.

I think the least they could do is add PVP servers, since player on player ground and ship PVP is pretty cool and often overlooked.

Portals - one time use since when? [Question]

I'm a long time player, and I'm used to portals remaining activated for long periods once activated, but not any longer. Every time I use a portal now it needs to be activated - a real PITA, and the audio drives my gf crazy when she's in the room 😅

So my question is - is this a thing now, and since when? I ask because it seemed gradual to me. It started with one of my PS4 saves, and spread to the other. It's one of the reasons I bought a PS5. But now it's affected all my PS5 saves. This all seemed to start around Nov. 2024. Was this in an update?

Spoiler tagged due to being in the Nexus at the point of recording, not sure if that is necessary but I did it out of caution.

Hello! I haven't played NMS for a few updates now, but decided to launch it back up recently. The thing is, the mouse settings have gotten so weird. It's way too sensitive, and I have no idea how to change it. In anything else, games or browsers or software, my mouse acts normally. The sensitivity isn't outlandishly high and it functions as it should. However, once I try to move the mouse in NMS, it's not really a static movement, I guess? Like, sometimes the pointer keeps going once I physically stop the mouse and if I move the pointer to the edge of my screen in a menu it flicks back to the center. It will also continue in that direction, like it's magnetized to the edges, just to snap back to the center again. This is making navigating menus and really any camera movement a real pain. I tried looking it up and can't find anything recent talking about it. I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling yet but that's next on my list.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Better yet, does anyone have a solution?

What am I Missing? [Question]

New player here, started when my friends said I could be a space pirate and not have to mine and build and all that. I’ve played for 11 hours and in that time have become the king of the pirates Gekkie G Gek, exotic S class starship, S class dreadnaught freighter, the outlaw maxed out before I even started doing missions. Are my pirate days over before they really started or am I still looking for the power of G?

Looking for a similar ship [Question]

I was just at the anomaly and saw a ship I really liked. Unfortunately it flew away before I could get a picture.

I attached a picture of a similar ship.

The ship I saw was black and gold and hovering with electricity coming out of the bottom. It also looked brand new.

Would it be a built ship or something that can be found? I appreciate any help.

Anyone got a Portal Address by the Galactic Core? [Question]

I'm making a journey to the Euclid Galaxy's Galactic Core and while the initial method of getting to 5000 LY worked, making the distance system-by-system has been difficult. Sometimes the route, whether its a Custom Waypoint or just THE path to the Galactic Core, it sometimes gets messed up and takes me back and forth through the same two systems, and I realized that only after I had spent the last five minutes going back and forth, until I realized "wait a minute...".

So here I am, asking if anyone has a Portal Address around the Euclid Galactic Core because I don't think I have the energy to care about getting there myself. I know the space around the Core itself is mostly empty so just a System that's closest to it(2000-1000 LY, maybe more maybe less) would be appreciated. If it helps, I'm playing the Switch version, I don't have the Switch 2 console nor the upgrade yet but I plan to!

Abandoned Freighter Issue: [Question]

Hello all! Loving the game so far ( 500+ hrs in ) , however, I seem to be experiencing one big issue. After completing my first successful Derelict Freighter mission with a couple of friends I seem to be stuck. I have tried to complete 4 missions solo since and every time I reach the bottom deck and start to clear it the mission freezes or the last time I tried it literally threw me outside into space upon entering the last room. This wouldn't be such an issue if you could save your progress, or is this the reason it won't let you save so it can screw you over. I'm hoping this is a bug and not by design. Any feedback welcome, Thank you!

Thinking about getting the game on PC [Question]

I played this game like 5 years ago on my PS4, RN its on sale on Steam, i have a powerful machine now and i want to play it with max settings.

Questions. Did they improve the quest system? i remember the best way to make money was to just scan things, it was boring in the end and i dont think i would be hooked doing that again How is the procedural planet-fauna-stuff rn? i loved to find weird biomes and bizarre creatures. Are there any interesting multiplayer activities?

Thank you!

The Game Has Excellent Breadth, Now Let's Talk about Depth. [Discussion]

After 9 years of dabbling off and on, I came back for Beacon and finally finished my first Permadeath run to the core for 'To Live Forever'. It was about 100 hours playtime with no portal cheese, making the journey in a freighter that we slowly upgraded and traded up. A few close calls, playing it safe, and Hole-Hopping from black hole to black hole while we collected freighter modules and built our fleet. We even adopted a Gek settlement that we developed into a booming town--though the population and no building terminal bug hampered that some.

Honestly, the journey reminded me about everything I love in No Man's Sky. The exploration, the discovery, the sense of wonder and the immersive feeling about really traveling across the universe. Now, I only have 359 hours at the time of this post according to Steam, and I know that pales in comparison to many of the travellers here. However, I do now feel experienced enough to talk about the game and some things I would like to see improved.

The tl;dr of this giant post is essentially: The game has lots of stuff to do, but as much fun as it is to get new activities, I think NMS would be well served to further develop the activities we have, too.

Below the break, I'll break down some areas that I think could really be improved, based on what I saw and experienced during my latest journey. I would encourage others to share their thoughts and suggestions as well. I'm not sure if Hello Games visits this subreddit, but you never know.

--------------------------------- Area 1: Combat

Combat is, unfortunately, the weakest aspect in NMS in my opinion, for the following reasons: A properly upgraded infra-knife essentially trivializes every encounter. You can melt shields, ships, and capital ship parts effortlessly. Every other weapon seems to pale in comparison to the IKA, so there is little reason...

System discovery [Question]

May have missed something here but how is it that I enter a system and 3 out of 5 planets are discovered by someone but the rest aren’t? With the amount of systems completely undiscovered how amI landing somewhere that has been discovered and then how is it that there’s half of it that hasn’t been discovered? Surely the chances are infinitesimal of either,let alone both l?

Abandoned Mode thoughts... [Discussion]

I find the alien cultures much more interesting now that they are gone.

I have never enjoyed the starter ship for so long. Nor enjoyed obtaining ships from crashes rather than skimming spacestations with a wad of credits.

I like the alternative tech progression.

If you haven't checked it out since Beacon update, it might be interesting.

If you have any thoughts or questions about how things are now in Abandoned Mode, maybe share them in this thread and we can figure it out. I've found it difficult to find good information specific to how things are after Beacon update.

Settlements sentinel alert level not progressing [Bug]

Anyone having a problem of settlements sentinel alert level not progressing. Both of mine are stuck on 21% & 80% & have been since the update received a patch so I'm not getting any sentinel or vile brood attacks. Progress was increasing in both when 5.71 dropped but then 5.72 killed it One pre-dates the update & the other is new Autophage everything else seems to work I'm getting fireworks, fighter attacks, citizen disputes & new builds. I did previously have the settlement is under attack never ending bug but I deleted that old settlement before the update so both of them are new builds.

Trouble Finding Frigates With Salvage Modules [Question]

Boundary Herald [Question]

Hello! I’m new to No Man’s Sky and I really love this game. Recently, I had a lot of fun exploring around forty systems to find a Sentinel ship that I liked the most.

The problem is that once I found it, I went to the Nexus and I saw this ship called the Boundary Herald, and it is just AMAZING!

If anyone could help me get it, for example by exchanging it to an NPC so I can buy it from them, I would really appreciate it!

I really hope I can enjoy the game with this ship as soon as possible.

New Player! Found a multitool and maybe lost my first one? [Question]

TL;DR: grabbed free new multitool. Wondering if my old multitool is gone for good or if I can switch between them. (Did not “exchange”)

Hello! Started playing the game a couple days ago. A few hours in, I found my way to a “Sentinel Pillar” with a terminal that let me turn off all the sentinels. There was a multitool there that presented the same screen as the purchase screen when interacting with a multitool in the space station, but it’s free (and broken). I imagine this is pretty common, but after taking the tool I seem to have lost access to the tool I was holding before. Can you only ever have one tool? Or is that other tool hidden away behind some mechanic I haven’t uncovered?

Thanks for your time!

I’ve loved Starfield and want to give NMS another shot [Question]

I’m an unusual Starfield enjoyer, and I loved the game’s ship building, exploration, and aesthetics. It makes me think that I should try NMS again.

I first attempted NMS maybe a year after release but couldn’t get into it. I think mostly because I’m not a huge fan of “survival” mechanics and I want more dialogue and, if possible, meaningful decisions (Starfield scores maybe a B on this front, enough to satisfy me—games like BG3 and Disco Elysium are an A+ but I’m not hoping for that from most space exploration games).

So, I guess my question is: will I like NMS if I give it another shot? Even if there is scant dialogue, is there at least meaningful RP potential and rewarding ship building/customization?

Question about base building and etiquette [Question]

I just recently started using the coordinate exchange and have realized there's alot of helpful folks aaand a lot of griefers.

Im wondering if theres an unspoken etiquette for building bases around receiving portals ?

Really what I'd want to do is to essentially go to the more popular seeds and be helpful, build a receiving kiosk with some rechargers n stuff to use.

I just dont want to claim a base if it ends the portal, but I do want to limit the potential for trap bases and bullshit (its tedious.)

Never dabbled so now I ask.

Corrupted Sentinels attacks on the settlements [Question]

Hello. Is this feature broken? I remember them attacking quite frequently, then after the recent update, they stopped. In my main settlement, the Sentinel attention level is stuck on 10% and not moving. In my additional settlement with Autophages, the counter has reached 100%, but the Corrupted Sentinels don't appear. The mission keeps saying "the settlement is under attack, teleport back to it and defend it!", but when I do, no one is attacking it. Except regular Sentinels lurking around and shooting as soon as they notice me, but that's because the settlement is on a planet with the "aggressive Sentinels" condition. No corrupted ones whatsoever (not that I miss them, but I don't like seeing the attack warning messages without the actual attack happening).

4/5 star Frigate missions? [Question]

Hey there, I play NMS for several years now (Switch 2) and I greatly enjoy it. But the one thing I've never even seen is getting offered a 4 or even 5 star frigate mission to run. Granted, I have a lot of changeup in my Frigate squadron, mostly because of hunting fuel-efficient frigates (and for the sheer change-up) - but even with mostly S class frigates, I've had no more than 3 star missions.

Does anyone know some secret about that?

I feel like the reason no man sky will always feel empty is because its not emphasizing 1 of 3 game mechanics as much as the other 2 [Discussion]

No Man Sky structure and core is built on 3 things which ironically is represented through the 3 races in the game Geks (merchants and traders), Vykeens (combat and survivalists), Korvax (explorers and scientists) from what I understand these 3 races represent the perfect harmony to a game if done right. Which is why no man sky feels empty... they keep focusing on trades and exploration but always leave updates for combat and environment engagement behind. Let me explain

Trades and merchandise (Gek Players): your thing is having the coolest stuff and exploiting resources. No Man Sky allows you to have fun with the RNG showing off what you can accomplish through understanding of the system and the economy around you. You have the best ships, frigates and freighters as you value your gameplay to exploit the land for resources for better stuff. You value tech that helps you keep track of the economy, rarity and resources

Exploration and collectors (Korvax players): you value exploration not only through planets but through npcs, languages, lore and solar systems. You love to see and experience new things as your base more or less looks like a museum or a lab of stuff that you experienced on previous journeys or things that will help you look for more in the future. You value tech that will help you survive harsh environments for long periods of time to witness any world you wish to see.

Vykeen (combat survivalists): this is where we meet our problem combat in this game is poorly explored as there's no real need to fight most of the times. You can say they can fight pirates in space but that's the only time they have their fun aside from shooting at Sentinels. But all are still avoidable or the same. Combat still feels the same since launch. As there's no reason to upgrade...

I'm falling more and more in love with this game and the developers behind it [Discussion]

I just wanted to say how incredibly amazing I think this passion project is. Sure, the state of the game back in 2016 wasn’t the best, but the fact that we’ve been getting free content updates for nine years now is anything but normal. Just look at Fallout 76 — it had a similar rocky start, but they’ve charged for everything at every opportunity. You have to pay 20 euros just to go fishing there, while in No Man’s Sky, it’s just included

I can get completely lost in NMS, and I feel the love of the developers in every part of it (even on procedurally generated planets :D). In a time when games are getting more expensive, DLCs are being pumped out to make a game feel complete, and greedy tactics are becoming the norm — I’m just so grateful for developers like Hello Games. Alongside Larian Studios, you’re my beacon of hope for the future of gaming, and I truly hope more studios follow your example. And I don’t mean they should give us free stuff — I mean they should love games as much as we do, and let that love shine through in their work.

Thank you for this!

And I know this isn’t the first post of its kind, and probably won’t be the last. But I just wanted to share my appreciation too :)

Want to help me decorate my base? [Question]

Hello fellow travellers. I consider myself to be decent at base building, especially the structure. I can take an idea in my head and craft it pretty well. However one of my biggest weaknesses is the nitty gritty stuff I'm talking about decorations and things. I can make big empty intricate rooms but filling those rooms with meaningful things is an entirely different thing altogether. I guess part of the problem is I've missed a fair amount of expeditions over the years, and I find the quicksilver missions to be abysmal. So I don't have to many extra decorations. I'm looking for people who have an eye for intricacies. Below are some images of my base message me if you want to help decorate.

Construction/science/weapon terminals all non-functioning on freighter [Bug]

I'm not big on planetary base-building. I'd rather have those terminals aboard my dreadnought. But I'm encountering a bug where, upon building a construction terminal for instance, my Gek overseer spawns in and I can't interact with the terminal anymore, and the overseer has the generic "Go about their business" text. I've tried dismantling and rebuilding, removing the terminals on the starter planetary base, exiting and entering the freighter, and nothing.

New Player (on Switch 2) having problems remembering the controls [Question]

Euclid Centre is so neat, yet so far! What now! [Question]

Grah!

I've been churning my way to the centre of Euclid.

Was over 400k light years away and still trying to use the Map filter for Centre of the Galaxy until I realised that would take me years.

I then saw a conversation in a comment section here and learned that using Black Holes was the way to go, so for the last few days I've been using black holes and getting closer

Now. I'm at just under 4k light years away.

There are no stars between me and the centre.

Using black holes takes me further away, centre of the galaxy path has stopped, free explore will not pass this edge of stars o am on.

What do I do, now?

I'm flummoxed, bamboozled and perplexed.

I'm also rather frustrated.

Embarassing inventory wipe: can I recover? XB1 [Question]

I'm like 3 weeks into this game and I must say, I haven't been so utterly absorbed into a game this way in years.

There comes a problem with that "obsession", though... I'll often play 'til exhaustion. And now, yesterday, I guess I fell asleep exploring a new planet, and died, well... at least twice.

Fortunately, at this point all I keep ON ME are essential ingredients like Copper, Sodium, Ferrite dust, Silicate powder n shit, but... man, I had a buuuunch of it. A ton of Nav Data + 40 Distress Signal maps in case I found a system with a ship I liked and wanted it for freeeee

All my cold shit's damaged too, now featuring resources I don't have! Anymore. Can I recovery save or do I just like, soldier on?

I really, REALLY wish this game had a manual save feature. Who thought it was a sensible idea to give us two auto-saves and no manual saves?

Well.... since it my first "Exotic Tweety" one so....... yes I use it even though it looks very OPPOSITE of my thought of fierce and cool looking.

Id love to see a real working casino and although Caesarus's Palace and Amino Casino are awesome Player builds, HG should make actual casinos like at the Anomaly, Pirate space stations and random casino depots... make a Galactic poker like card game, roulette table and slot machines, make them build able as well as be able to hire dealers from around the universe... id even introduce another alien race using the many alien heads already in the game. This would be a cooler past time than fishing, although fish is cool too.

Did they remove salvaged frigate modules from cargo pods? [Question]

Pretty new to the game. I've been looking for ways to farm salvaged frigate modules, and the online consensus seems to be to go around looking for cargo pods to blow up. I've looked a ton, but not a single cargo pod has contained salvaged frigate modules. Did they remove them from cargo pods?

Welcome to Orbitua! An interstellar outpost (my orbital base) for Space Citizens near the galactic core of Euclid to lounge in the cosmos, visitors encouraged! [Screenshot]

I was a bit sad that the nexus is the only community hub for players to gather, inspiring an orbital base that resembled a space station for visitors to come and go on their way to the center. Building takes so much time but I'm more than happy with the results (even minor clipping glitches that I don't have the patience to deal with), I hope you enjoy it as well! Key Talking Points (I don't know how out text below specific photos):

The main lobby/rector room is also the home to a beautiful sunken living room lounge with an aquarium, getting timber walls inside cuboid rooms for decorating took more time than I'd like to admit

Each desk at the reactor "powering" the base has a different personality to it, like one only covered in knick-knacks by an overly easygoing worker

The four balconies around the lobby are also uniquely decorated, so that each visitor may have some section that appeals to them

Again being inspired by community hubs in mmos, I needed to build a room dedicated to changing your appearance so you can show off your different styles to friends. Underneath this appearance modification room is another, more suited to my fellow autophage! (Complete with scraps in the hallway to build your shell with)

There are six functioning landing pads, each are labelled by decals on wall panels to correlating teleporters in the hub, allowing for easy transportation between parking and the lounge!

There is only one ladder in this base, I like portals :)

I hope you all enjoy!

question about super charged slot placement on ships... [Question]

So, this question is twofold... I keep hearing mixed things when it comes to supercharged slot placement. some say it's static per ship type. so, if I'm understanding right, if I'm hunting crashed sentinel ships, and all the ships on the planet I'm on are the same, their slots should also all be the same once they hit S rank... but others say it's random per ship even within the same model... so which is correct?

second question... what is a "good" slot placement? like i see posts about ships with slots that are all 4 together in one place. What's the benefit of that? just if you wanted to REALLY boost only one of your ship's tech?

reason I'm asking is I was hunting for an interceptor, was finding a bunch of Cs and just scrapping them. but then I saw the thing about slot placement and some were saying to just take the one with good slots and upgrade it to S rather than looking for a natural S. problem is... I already salvaged the "4 slots together" ship. I know it'll respawn in a few days but I'd like to understand this all more to know if it really matters/is worth waiting or if I should just grab another ship from the planet.

DLSS nukes my FPS in No Man’s Sky — anyone else? [Bug]

Hey guys, bit of a weird one. Playing No Man’s Sky at 1440p with DLSS + frame gen, I start at a buttery 140 FPS… then after a while it just plummets to like 4 FPS. Switching to AMD’s FSR helps a bit, and if I drop down to 1080p it’s fine. Lowering graphics from High doesn’t really fix it though.

Specs for context: • RTX 4060 • Ryzen 5 5600X • 32 GB RAM And ssd m.2

Any ideas? Is this just a weird driver thing or something with No Man’s Sky itself? Thanks!

Frigate Base Disappearing - Any Fixes? [Question]

I finally got my freighter set up after some good tips about getting some salvage modules. I feel like I'm still stuck because the frigate base parts disappear every time I'm on board. If I teleport back, everything is there, but the second I go down to work on my ships, everything disappears again. It makes it almost impossible to work on anything now that I'm using storage.

I'm playing on the Nintendo switch 2, so I'm sure there's some graphical and RAM related hurdles, but this is making this stage of the game somewhat unplayable being that the frigate is not very usable. I know that I can set up my planet base with storage, but then it almost defeats the purpose of having the frigate.

Synthetic fauna roaming around.

Is it worth in 2025? [Question]

Actually I’m looking for no man’s sky, since it is in sale on steam, but I’m not sure at all, I have tried it long time ago for a while, but I heard about many major updates so I’m not sure if the game is gonna be the “same”. The idea that I got last time was not so good, I’m a solo player and I loved to explore planets bring stud in my space ship and sale in giant commercial places, but over this it looked a bit repetitive and not very appealing. So help me pls 🥲 What’s the funniest part for you when you play this game? I like challenges and a bit of hardcore in games but NMS looked to me more like a giant sandbox to explore.

This settlement got me stressed 😭 [Question]

Hiiii, new player here!! Got the game a couple days ago and oh god there’s already so much I’m trying to manage😭was literally trying to explore a new system or something when suddenly I get a distress call and after some stuff I’m now in charge of a whole town now💀 A town that for some reason is already in debt (to WHO???), is apparently haunted, has parasitic eggs, and like some other things. Many cons outweigh the pros but on god I will help these guys out…I just don’t know how 😭 I know that No Man’s Sky is kinda randomly generated so idk if I just got bad luck or if everyone’s first settlements are like this LOL. Right now I’m just upgrading buildings when I can (which is a pain bc I can only do one at a time), but I’m not sure if there’s anything else I can really do? If there is, any help would be appreciated!

Also: Is there a way I can customize buildings and change the layout? I keep getting all the buildings confused bc they all just look the same and it irks me just a little that they’re laid out how they are LOL. These aren’t the biggest issues for me ofc, but it would be nice 💔

Broken Settlement... help please [Bug]

I started playing just days before the beacon update and saved my first settlement from the sentinels. Then updated before I accepted the overseer position. Now I am the overseer but I cannot see any construction terminal to build the office. I can't retire either because I get "Cannot retire yet: complete settlement objectives" and it cannot be completed because there is no construction terminal. Is there any way to fix this? I'm not opposed to using the save editor if it'll provide a fix. I'm on steam, latest version patch 5.72 Oh yeah.. and the settlement is floating above the ground every time I visit. Reloading (in and out of ship) usually fixes that but I never see the construction terminal.

I have a definitive answer on how to save Apollo. There are 2 conversations with Apollo where choosing the wrong dialogue option WILL result in Apollo's death. In order to save Apollo you must: [Discussion]

After researching online and testing in game, I have a definitive answer on how to save Apollo. In the Artemis quest line, there are 2 conversations with Apollo where choosing the wrong dialogue option WILL result in Apollo's death.

In order to save Apollo you must: Choose to give Apollo the Portal Glyphs when they ask so that he can follow you through.

If you don't give Apollo the Portal Glyphs then they will go through the Portal anyway using random a random combination of Glyphs ending up like Artemis. (Portal Glyphs are the coordinates you put in a portal to get to a specific star system) After Apollo follows you through the Portal, they will ask you if "Money and doing what is told" is still all that matters. You must select the "No" or "I Don't Know" dialogue options.

If you choose the "Yes" dialogue option here, the Atlas will tell you "Apollo followed you through the portal, but you did not do enough to help them." This is because the Atlas showed Apollo that he is not real, and all their work was for nothing. It is The Player's companionship - through the quest line -and their guidance - through these two fateful conversations - that ends up saving Apollo from ending up like Null when he found out his work was for nothing as well.

Up until recently, I never knew you could save Apollo until I replayed the part where the Atlas told me I failed to save Them. I had always loved this game and had done what I could to bring Artemis back , only partially succeeding as he ultimately ends up still lost just in a different place, stuck in an endless loop searching for someone. Aren't we all lost in an endless loop searching for something.

Unrelated, What...

Is NMS poetic? [Question]

Some critizise the game for not being enough deep in its story. But so far my experience (after 30 hrs and just built my 1st exocraft) is that YOU are the story and that you with your worldbuilding, crafting and travelling fill in the blanks for yourself. The simple story makes it possible for you to use imagination in contrast to a game where everything is explained. Someone else who feels like this?

It basically asks the publishers to have a end of life plan for their games, so that they cant just brick your game whenever they decide to do so. This is once in a lifetime oportunity to change the videogame industry for the better. This is not just another useless online petition.

Floating Lost Temple base (double sky island) [Screenshot Video]

I came across a 'double' sky island - 2 large waterfall islands spawned intersecting each other, which created a unique opportunity for a base built around waterfalls and cliffs (see 7th pic for top view of whole island). 100 hours later (ish), here is what it looks like! Phenomenal how far the base building has come since the original game.

Youtube video tour here

The island has 2 pubs, a museum, workshop, exocraft garage and test track, overseers house, guest house, and a cool starship launch. I couldn't fit it all in the video! Had a lot of fun combining the ruin parts with some of the new autophage roof parts on this to make some quite massive feeling structures.

Feel free to come and visit to see the whole thing - Javondier's Lost Temple.

NOTE: The 2nd island doesn't seem to appear for my Xbox user friend - could be PC only.

NOTE 2: Don't try to take off with a big starship (or do try, but any accidental ship destruction is your own liability)

NOTE 3: The system/planet are unfortunately named!

A fatal mistake [Information Video]

Hello, my name is Dorian, but in No Man's Sky my name is Espinxo485. I want to share what happened to me today, July 1, 2025, at 5:20 p.m.

I was browsing the vast universe of No Man's Sky, until, luckily for me, I came across the pirate freighter event, which I think is the best freighter in the game. I have a C class freighter and I was very excited to be able to get an S class freighter completely free, since, if you finish with this freighter, they will give it to you for free.

After about three minutes, I had already done a lot of damage to this huge freighter, but of course, its squadrons were also present in the battle, so they did a lot of damage to me, almost completely removing the shield of my S-class sentry ship. Very excited and somewhat desperate, I quickly went to the Anomaly, since I knew that my shield would be completely recharged there.

That's how it was: my shield was completely recharged, but due to my limited knowledge of this great video game, I didn't realize that when I left the Anomaly the freighter would disappear completely. My chance to get an S-class freighter completely free disappeared in just seconds. My desperation at not seeing the freighter anywhere was incredible. I was paralyzed and somewhat disappointed, to the point that I even shed a few tears.

I make this post to share my despair at losing this great freighter and so that recent or inexperienced players in this video game do not make the same mistake as me.

Thank you very much for reading. Espinxo485 -

Looking for deep water [Question]

I guess my eyesight lacks a cone or two. I can barely differentiate between a red star and purple one. I really want a giant, deep ocean for a build. Is there a better way to identify these water systems than by color? Is lithium really synonomous with large water worlds?

I think I got a bug that completely prevents me from developing my settlement as well as to retire as the overseer. [Bug]

The quest says to construct the first new building (screenshot 1) yet it leads me to an already fully built building that i tried to upgrade and it also says to bring ionized cobalt for the advanced sleeping pod(screenshot 2) sadly i cant upgrade it since the new building that I'm supposed to construct seems to be prioritized and is preventing me from upgrading the other building (screenshots 3) screenshot 4 is what I believe to be the new building which i cannot build because i have to upgrade the old one first and screenshot 5 shows that i cant retire. Am i right about this being a bug or am i just not seeing something? Does anyone have a fix?

How easy is to find other Travellers outside the Anomaly? [Question]

Hi there!

I'm right now 140h into the game and just nearly finished the Apollo way. I'm about to begin the last part of the Journey. (Trying to avoid spoilers here)

All this time I've been always moving between the same 15 Solar systems and found no other players outside the Anomaly although I'm looking forward to it. Indeed, first time I saw a ship landing close to my base I saw it from a mountain and I nearly killed myself trying to get there and then took me a while to realise it was a NPC.

First time I moved to a new solar system I was soooo happy to see it had never been visited before and I was the first one seen every planet or animal there,...... Until I realised later on that I was always the first one reaching all of them but the Atlas station's ones.

My point , I love somehow the idea of a huge galaxy nearly empty where finding others is improbable but the idea of finding others been impossible somehow disappoints me.

Also, most players I've come across at the Anomaly they just run from their ships to whatever they are doing at the Anomaly then back to their ships and they are gone.

The Question: When approaching the end of the journey, closer to the goal, is it easier to find other players outside the Anomaly? Would you share your personal experience here?

Thank you and safe Journey. P.

Ice Giant and some moons (and a really purple station) [Screenshot]

First time finding a giant planet that's not a gas giant. I don't think the pictures do justice in showing the scale of everything. Even the caves are so deep! Also has a paradise ruins moon and an ice moon with fossils, I think. Just thought it was neat and wanted to see if anyone wanted to check it out.

NMS Update Today to Harmonic Encampments. RE: Sentinel Multi-Tools. Beacon 5.73 Patch. [Information]

Hey all, looks like the update today changed the loot tables for Harmonic Encampments. I applied the update, went ship hunting, landed at an encampment and to my surprise, a non-sentinel basic pistol multi-tool was in the locked cabinet. Went to another dissonant system, same thing, but at least it was an experimental. Did a third system cause thoroughness, and it was a basic rifle. I don't know if this is a bug, or a loot table update that was unannounced in the patch.

Switch 2 versions mismatch between patch notes and software information. [Bug]

According to the official page, version 5.72 is already available on Switch 2, but the game still shows version 5.71. So, what's going on?

Also, a warning: do not play the game on other platforms if you plan to use cross-save. The game is once again one version behind — other platforms are already on version 5.73 — and you won’t be able to download your save back to Switch 2 if you've played on a different console.

Fell off pillar, can't reach uncharged ship :-\ halp! [Question]

Hi all, not quite a bug.

My ship is stuck on a pillar and uncharged - I can't reach it via jetpack, climb up or recharge it remotely?

I am just leaving the first planet, so flew around a bit to say goodbye to the place before departing into the black.

Before I left a pillar caught my eye. I landed on top and had my first encounters with drones, which attacked me while harvesting. I got back in the ship but needed an additional launch fuel to get off the ground again :-\ I fled, and now I'm stuck off the pillar and can't get back up. The ship's not charge so I can't summon it or seemingly reach it to recharge remotely.

Could you advise please? Is this playthrough bricked? Best to just restart? It won't take long to catch up but I'm wondering if there is a more user-friendly solution to this unfortunate error.

Thanks in advance!

New Player - Few Questions [Question]

Hello fellow travelers!

I started No Mans Sky a few days Agora for the second time. My First attempt was a few years ago, so I have not many knowledge of it, and so many Things changed!!

So I follow the questlines and there Aren't many problems but maybe you can help with the few questions I have.

First of all, when is a good time to farm Money for a New starship? And should I buy one I like from an NPC or is there another way to get one?

And second, I really would love to build a base on an beautiful earth-like Planet, but I am not sure how I can find good Planets xD I allowed in the settings to warp to any star system regardless of color. But what are good indicators for nice Systems on the galactic map?

And last but not least, in Connection the one above, I have read in this Sub that you should travel through the heart of the galaxy to travel to another with Higher Chance for earthlike planets. Should I do this when ever I want oder should I finish the main quest First?

Thanks for the help and sorry for the bad english. I am german And it is late And hot, And my brain capacity low xD ❤️

Running pipes and wires over 5000u [Question]

I've had an A class activated indium farm for a while and I've recently decided to find an S class one, and I did, but it's over 5000u away. Is there any way I can cable up the new extractors to the huge power generation and storage system I've got for the first farm? From what I gather from building pipes for over 20 minutes trying to connect up the farms, it seems that stuff like electricity is sort of caged in your base's area and you can't get it outside of that area, is there any way at all that I can connect these two farms?

WORMS, I NEED WORMS (pls) [Discussion]

I would be very appreciative if anyone could offer to trade any worm eggs they have.

These eggs are from Expedition 4: Emergence, and they hatch into, what seem to be, small(er) versions of the Shaihuluda.

I could offer as many units as requested (via trade goods), plus an entire Iron Vulture from the Expedition 13: Adrift, aswell as an added S-Class Reactor.

Unsure - Equipment, Ship, and Multi-Tool Layouts [Question]

I am on the Discord and have looked through Google. While min-maxing is out there, it also seems like people still (naturally) set things up their way.

I just am unsure if I got it the right way amongst my stuff and really am just looking for validation - is there something I am missing? I just got to the end mission and I am 146 hours in (I really just love exploring this amazing, expansive game). Is there something clearly I should do amongst my equipment/ship/multi-tools (one for mining one for damage, clearly, using hotkeys) - which can act as my next in game goal? Like, leveling up my multi-tools seems like the next obvious?

Appreciate any insights or thoughts!

Everyone talks about their favorite view in No Man’s Sky—me? I sit on top of the Anomaly and watch these badass ships fly in like it’s a runway show in deep space.

Can’t find a planet with lots of egg creatures! [Discussion]

As per the title, I can’t find a planet with lots of egg-producing creatures, and it’s making me want to scream in annoyance.

I can find planets with a couple of them, but no herds.

I can find milk-producing animals in a herd, no problem.

But egg-producing creatures? No can do.

And the few that I do find, are on planets with milk-producing creatures which fills up the collection thing. I don’t need more milk!

I just want to farm a bunch of eggs to make cakes. Is that too much to ask?

Quest 3 / Virtual Desktop - In Game SteamVR menu drops to ~ 1-2FPS and often crashes. [Question]

If anyone happens to run a similar setup (Q3 / VD) - do you notice after recent updates that the SteamVR client often crashes or drops to a ridiculous 1-2fps when accessing SteamVR menu ingame (ie default binding press the LHS Meta button on the controller)?

I run a 4070ti on a relatively high spec gaming PC, and the number of crashes and issues I've had just getting the game to run and adjust bindings etc has been very messy.

I've tried several VD optimisations (as suggested in other threads) i.e. disable HAGS, kill the VD task, then switch it HEVC 10-bit, from AV1 10-bit. Also adjusted the in game VR graphics between HIGH and ULTRA. The game play itself is usually ok (still plenty of freezes and the occasional crash with frozen screen, so you have to kill both SteamVR and VD, sometimes reboot the PC as SteamVR just shows a white flickering overlay without a full reboot).

(Pic is from another post, just for effect).

FS2024 / Elite Dangerous / NMS are the main reasons I purchased the Q3 a few months ago, but NMS is now the problem child :(

Not able to access endgame content [Bug]

I'm not able to trigger "Stellar Multitudes". I've finished the main quests, finished all the prerequisites, finished "A Trace Of Metal". I had the corrupted station spawn in a system but I wasn't able to enter it, and now I forgot where it was and I can't go back to it.

I've been pulsing in dissonant systems hoping to have it respawn again but it doesn't trigger. Am I just locked out of it completely? I've played on the experimental build too, hoping it would fix it, but it just bricked my save until the most recent patch came through.

I've looked through this sub for solutions and implemented them, like reloading in the Atlas and whatnot. I don't want to mess with a save editor.

Does anyone have a solution I can use, especially after this new patch has dropped? Thanks in advance.

I’m in this Hispanic group and translating what the ss says: Fb OP: This may sound dumb, but does our solar system exist in NMS universe? Our planet?

Comment 2: Drop that comment in Reddit and they’ll find it in less than a month for sure!

With persistence, you will stumble across a gem. [Screenshot]

I just demolished a few of my bases earlier today, mainly because the planets they were on were lacking some indescribable quality. Then I found this planet. These views and 7 underwater fauna that include 2 seahorses, and a forward crescent manta. The water is over 50u deep right up to the edge of this island. Great fishing. Occasional light rain. I think I may build a new base here.

Eissentam galaxy. Lush biome (Star Bulb). Calm weather. Zero sentinels. Blue grass, terrain shifting from gray to gold, a sky that breathes orange, green, and cyan depending on the time of day. And the copper… looks like a glowing, chromatic crystal.

I didn’t use portals. Just stumbled across it while flying aimlessly. The colors change as you walk — like the planet responds to you.

Xbox One X Save Issue with Recent Update [Bug]

Hey all! I recently got back into NMS and am coming across a fairly frustrating issue on my Xbox Series X.

I spent a couple of hours this evening grinding out the Artemis quest line and finished up the main story missions. I got all the glyphs and used them to go to a system where I know a white squid ship is crashed.

Anyway, I show up to the coordinates and I can’t find the ship, so I figure I just need to quit to title and come back in to spawn the ship. So I do that… (game says I saved 12 seconds ago) and the game loads me back into the 16/16 mission as if I haven’t completed the Artemis quest line and still haven’t spoken to the Gek cartographer. I’m no longer on the white squid planet, and I’m in a space station I left literally hours ago.

Weird thing is that my save says that I am “on planet” on the white squid planet, but then when I load it up, I’m on a space station in the middle of the 16/16 mission??

What gives? Am I missing something here or is this a fairly substantial bug?

Thanks so much.

I think my save is bugged [Question]

I have a save with almost 100 hours and I've been trying for a while to access the "In Stellar Multitudes" quest so I can travel to those systems and see the gas giants.

I've completed all the pre reqs I've seen on the wiki. I've completed the Atlas questline and the Autophage questline. I also did the Titan expedition and kept the Atlantid drive from there but it did nothing.

I think the Atlas Questline is bugged because I finished it before, I have Rememberance to prove it, but the quest is still active

Other players in the anomaly? [Question]

I'm a relatively new player to NMS on the PS5 and have probably visited the anomaly around 20~ times and it's been completely empty— cool, that's what I expect as I don't have PlayStation plus. The other day however, I went to the anomaly and it was PACKED with actual players.

I've had a search around various forums and this subreddit and there's one answer on this sub that says that multiplayer visibility will occasionally open during expeditions, is that true + is it just completely random? Why would they choose to do that? I did go back a couple times in the same hour after I left and it was once again 'empty'. Any insight would be appreciated as I'm not sure if there's some obvious answer other than 'yeah, they occasionally give people access'. Thanks!

Getting really bad graphic bugs when around water on PC [Bug]

I've been having this issue for awhile now, took a break from the game, and logged back in today after installing the new patch, so I thought I'd test things out. This is what I saw earlier as soon as I hit the surface of the water. I've had other versions where the screen goes black or grey. The game is still running. The UI works, I can get into my inventory or the option screen just like normal.

After this happened earlier I tried logging back in and I was greeted with a dark grey screen. Everything else was working. I was able to get back into my ship, leave the planet, and called the Anomaly because I knew all I had to do was get close to the front of it to trigger auto-docking.

Nothing has changed in my hardware. System isn't even a year old and I've played dozens of hours without any issues. The first time it happened I ran the integrity verifier in Steam, and updated my Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 TI drivers. Still the same.

Anyone run into an issue like this?

Then gives me grey text about how my character is certain they have seen this strange lifeform watching them, tracking their movements. They glance up at me, innocently enough".

BASE BUILDER - Suggestion for new Base Materials "CONCRETE". [Suggestion]

For me, base building is one of the most important aspects of this magnificent simulation, and although it is already possible to make incredible architectural constructions, I think the game has the potential for much more.

Something I would really like to have available is concrete walls and floors, with green roofs. That, and triangular pieces with other angles.

Started a new save, got to the point where I had triangulated Artimis’ position and I visited a temple on a hot planet. After interacting with it and learning a new word I suddenly started taking extreme heat damage, despite my hazard protection being nearly fully charged. I even took shelter in the building part and still died!

Is the economy finally fixed now? Discussing a potential economy overhaul. [Discussion]

Returning player here: Over the years, I have probably made a handful of new saves where I'd play for about 10-20h and would then lose interest because my primary motivation ran out.

For me, I always want to get rich, get a freighter, awesome ship, and maxed out jetback.
To do so, I would engage in a variety of cool experiences; building infrastructure for mining, extensive base building, flipping undug artifcats from exploration, do cool stuff on weird planets.
To do so, I would always optimize the fun out of a game; just crash the economy in and abuse the system to have more money after a few hours than I can make use off and all my motivation would evaporate.

I know this is sort of a me problem, but I would so love to engage with all the games systems but that only works for me in a sandbox game with an emphasis on survival, where many elements are artifically withheld to me and I got to find ways to get by in some sort of dangerous galaxy.

What's important to me is not necessarilly more content, like that outpost building addons with employees and so on, but game mechanics that incentivize me to engage with them.

So at the end of the day, my question is, whether or not they made such an improvement in the last year, where I did not play, whether such an uipdate is in the works and I just gotta hold off for a few months, or whether there are well-rounded and stable mods that can do this.

But it’s in an abandoned system. No space station, just two planets, and nothing else around. Shame. Still, what a view.

New Player, a bit overwhelmed, can you guys help explain some things for me? [Question]

I’m 50 hours in, finished the main storylines, and am now currently slowly doing the other random quests that have popped up while exploring, making my way through the terminal quests, and multi tool and ship hunting!

I don’t really know what to do, I could check out settlements, freighters, farming, taming creatures, etc and it’s too much lol. I also want a good ship, but is there any reason to have multiple ships for different purposes once you get a ship to S class? (I know about junk ships for jumping but for now I’m just gonna repair all my stuff).

Is there a point in getting an explorer or hauler in the later game when the sentinel ship is pretty good and also hovers? Like is there a late game reason I’d want to swap to a different ship than my daily driver other than my mood?

Yesterday I found some awesome doglike creatures that I just had to tame but other than them being cute and following me around, are they useful? Riding them felt useless compared to my jet pack, I’m not sure if these pets are useful for anything other than being adorable.

I guess my question is: what route would you recommend I go to start progressing with a simple explanation of what I’ll get from that component of the game.

Atlas Pass v4 [Question]

I recently came across an image of the physical Atlas Pass Level 4 from the Waking Titan ARG and noticed something curious: the center-left edge of the card has what appears to be a three-contact strip—visually similar to a USB-style interface or logic connector.

To my surprise, I haven’t found any documented cases of fans testing this area for:

🔌 Continuity

📶 Embedded RFID/NFC chip

🔦 Light-through inspection for circuitry

🧪 Or even multimeter probing

I understand the pass is largely regarded as symbolic/collector-only, but Waking Titan was known for hiding deep, clever puzzles. That edge connector feels too deliberate to be purely cosmetic.

So here’s my ask: If you own a confirmed original Atlas Pass V4 (ideally received directly via the Waking Titan ARG), would you be willing to:

Run a continuity check across the contact pads

Scan the card with an NFC reader app

Hold it against a strong light to check for traces or chips

Post clear macro photos of the edge in question

Even if nothing turns up, this would help settle a long-standing “what if” for the curious among us. And if something does turn up... well, maybe the Titan was never meant to sleep forever.

Thanks in advance for entertaining the mystery.

So who is Atlas? [Discussion]

I think Atlas is actually Hellogames. We are not real, and were created to explore and see all other Atlas creations. When the game just launched we hated it so much, Atlas got scared that this is going to be the end and “deleted” Atlantid (old) systems but we restored them as they are part of the world and deserve to exist. What do you think?

Populated Planet [Question]

I have been playing this game for years, I am just hanging out near the Euclid galactic center farming credits and clusters. I am bored, but I want to continue playing.

Are there planets where players hangout to trade or meet? Maybe even planets or systems with tens or hundreds of bases? It would be so cool to feel like I’m surrounded by fellow travelers. If anyone knows about one please let me know so I can go visit.

#

Sentinel Trophies [Suggestion]

I've been creating a little base on an aggressive sentinel planet that can be used as a nice place to hunt the jerks down. Works pretty well. It has a couple of levels, and a deck on the second level you can run around on and shoot from. What I was thinking is it would be cool if I could display sentinel trophies around there. Kind of like we can do with the skeletons, but with Sentinels. It would really round out the aesthetic I'm going for. Anyway, if you want to try it out: here's the location.

Should all of the Farms for a Stasis be in the same system. [Question]

Building a Stasis Farm because I’m getting bored making money with Trade Routes and Sentinel Ships. Look up some guides, watched some videos. The first step in all of them was to find a system with a hot, cold and Lush Planet.

I feel like trying to find the perfect system is a waste of time. The fact that portals exist makes the locations of the various farms irrelevant. It’s not like anybody would take the time to fly between the planets to harvest everything.

Is there a logical reason to build them all in the same system?

Portal Glyphs [Question]

So I’m a returning player from Xbox but a PC player now (yes, master race) and I’m diving deeper than I did originally. All in I have about 60-100 hours of gameplay, 33 with my new account. I just uploaded Artemis if that helps.

However! I am learning I am propelled into the future with all the updates from when the game dropped. So my question is as follows:

The portal glyphs — I’ve done some research and I built a base by one so I can always have access, but the glyphs themselves is still saying I have 0 discovered. Anything online says it comes with natural gameplay but I was wondering if there’s an expedited way of getting the glyphs because now I feel like there’s things I want to do or see and can’t even utilize this feature.

Non-Expedition Cosmetics [Question]

I know there are plenty of ships and cosmetics tied to Quicksilver and Expeditions, however, having starting fresh again recently after a hiatus, I've unlocked a winged backpack and a cool helmet with a cowl/hood. I've been looking for a list of cosmetics(character/ship/freighter/etc) that can be found without using quicksilver or earning through an expedition.

Has anyone seen one or made one?

And in case people don't have these:

Winged Backpack - Picked this up at an autophage camp that had the multi-tool that looks like a power washer.

Helmet with Cowl - Working through the black market quest chain that ends with you bringing a falsified passport to one of the Space Stations.

Diver Helmet - Dreams of the Deep questline.

Help a new player with some questions [Question]

Started NMS this week after years thinking the game was bad because i had no knowledge of how the game really work, to my surprise i really enjoyed the concept and got really hyped to play but the game has A TON of information and mechanics (not a problem, i love games with complex mechanics and lot lore/collectibles).

I did some research of the basics and some starting tips but still need help with somethings:

1 - How supercharged slots works and why people say that items with connected ones are the best?

2 - Is possible to craft a ship with parts that i want or only pre made models?

3 - Glyphs are unlocked with story related quests or random exploration? I know u need to unlock all glyphs to travel between galaxies and go to places that people share findings in the other sub.

4 - Is there any importantt order to play or quests to do first? i'm on the first questline to build a base and unlock the constructions.

Building a base next to your settlement makes settlements alot more fun. [Information]

This may be common knowledge to most so sorry if that's the case! I felt bad for my settlers, trudging around in rainstorms looking miserable. I walked around with a base computer and built a base as close to the settlement perimeter as possible and its been so much fun.

You know how you can make your base perimeter massive by simply building pathways out from it? I found out I could build in to my settlement. Now my settlement have pathways, pavilions! Glass roofs! Lights! They actually even have beds in their sleeping pods! Their salubrious bar is now a very popular nightclub, and I tell you, those Korvax fellows got moves!

Of course this is all decorative and doesent affect the settlement debt/happiness at all, but it makes me happy. If you love base building this is certainly worth trying.

GRAHH GRIEFERS!! [Discussion Video]

I know plenty of you have run into griefers before, so I'm well aware of the dangers.. this is what I get for trying to help someone randomly. So this guy asked to be my friend in the anomaly almost immediately, big red flag, but he looks like he may be new and just wants help with nexus mission. So I decide to join the mission because it requires killing 68 biological horrors, which made sense someone might want help with. We do the mission, he pulls his weight decent, then I should've just went to anomaly and cashed in for my quicksilver. But no, he asks for my help one more time, at a local base with NPCs, so no his own base. He's built a save point in the middle of it and is pointing at it, I think it's weird but whatever I go to leave the base.. annd the video explains the rest. Died at least twice before escaping in my ship. One important note, the guy I was in mission with is definitely at fault, but you'll notice right at the end of the video, Traveller228, pops up in the chat cursing that I've managed to escape. He was never in mission with us, so it appears mr. pajama pants had some assistance in this griefing. I'll recover, but I've got to admit, it felt like a virtual mugging because I lost alot of valuables I was carrying. We gotta stop these -kzzt-holes!!!

I was Today years old when I learned... [Information]

Sulphurine in a refiner gives Radon at 3:1, and Radon gives Nitrogen, also at 3:1. So, if you need 120 Nitrogen (as I did to upgrade a farm building at one of my settlements), and you have Sulphurine, you'll need over 1,000 Sulphurine to be able to make enough Nitrogen - 9 Sulphurine for every Nitrogen you need to make.

Buuuut... just for gits and shiggles I messed about with the refiner and it turns out, if you refine Sulphurine WITH OXYGEN, the ratio changes to 1:1. So 120 Sulphurine -> 120 Radon -> 120 Nitrogen (with added Oxygen at each step, of course).

(And it turns out, adding Oxygen to all kinds of things in the refiner changes the ratio like this. Try it with Salt or Chlorine, for example. It seems Oxygen is the secret sauce in all kinds of refiner recipes.)

Problem. Solved.

Switch 2 Cross-Save not compatible [Question]

I just wanted to post and see if there were any other affected players playing No Man's Sky on the Switch 2 and facing the same issue I am facing.

I played for about 3 hours on my Switch 2 and wanted to continue on my PC. I used the Cross-save feature to do so. I played for another 2 hours while I let my switch charge up so I could relax in bed and keep playing. When I got on my switch it stated that my save was now on a newer version of No Man's Sky and cannot be launched anymore.

I spent tons of time looking into this and researching to see if there were more players affected but I can't seem to find anyone with the same issue.

I have verified that my PC version is not on any Beta Builds of the game and that it is on the most recent stable release. Verified that my Switch version is also up-to-date.

I came to here as my last resort to see if anybody else has this issue and/or has fixed this issue.

Switch 2 Save Version - 4185
PC Save Version - 4186

Not sure why these would be on different save versions. I do not mind restarting my game but I would like to have my single save across all of my devices.

If anyone has any solutions, I would greatly appreciate it!

Is it normal that crafting the hyperdrive fuel only gave me 17% fuel? (Permadeath mode, returning player) [Question]

Hi everyone,

I just came back to No Man’s Sky after not playing for several years. I’m playing in permadeath mode, and I finished the quest to craft the hyperdrive fuel by building the antimatter and the antimatter housing. But after I put it into the hyperdrive, it only gave me 17% fuel.

Now I can’t warp to another system because I don’t have enough fuel, and resources are pretty limited in permadeath.

Is this normal behavior? Did I miss something, or is there a way to get more fuel right after finishing that quest?

Thanks a lot for any help!

Future update ideas! [Discussion]

After recently getting into this game last year. I’ve seen a lot of updates, making the game better in the process.

Playing a permadeath, survival run. After seeing what these updates has to offer. I believe it would be nice to just further improve upon all existing mechanics and giving us more QoL features.

Updating Ship & Expcraft interior design. I believe would be a nice start. Especially for the exocrafts, mainly the dashboard.

A control panel and HUD would be cool. Display a fuel gauge, exocraft attachment panel, a speedometer etc. That would be awesome!!!

Settlements Still Suck 🤷🏻‍♂️ [Discussion]

Okay, so before you think I’m just a hater, No Mans Sky is probably my favorite game of all-time, and I LOVE Hello Games for giving us so many amazing free updates for years. This issue won’t affect my love for the game, either, but…

Settlements still totally suck after the bug update, right? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Is it just me?

If anything, I think they are actually WORSE now, because you spend even more countless hours clicking and waiting and upgrading and waiting and clicking. Only to find out that you can’t get it to S-class or that your settlement only produces like 1 ion battery per day or something. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Like I said, I love Hello Games to pieces, but I really can’t understand the decisions they make with this stuff sometimes. They might as well have just left the settlements alone to just focus on something else.

Why settlements suck [Discussion]

Not defending the bugginess, but like a lot of recent code in NMS, HG are testing technologies from Light No Fire. A feature like a Town would be almost essential in a fantasy world like LNF. Currently in NMS we are testing running 4 settlements. If you join all of them together that would resemble a small Town in many CRPGs. This would likely be combined with the space station type NPCs and missions.

Need inspiration to improve on my Base idea “1000u drop” [Question]

Found an awesome water planet, 1400u deep and some of the biggest fauna I have ever seen down there so I scouted and found myself a spot that’s ~950u deep with the idea to build a ‘plummet hole’ to the surface that effectively lets you jump to the ocean floor (with a moon-door at the bottom)

A bit of jiggery-pokery, and many hours later it is done but not as fun as I’d hoped - basically I keep hitting the sides on the way down (Owch).

My plan to include a short range teleporter back to the surface was also scuppered by not knowing the max radius of 2 teleporters

So … anyone have any ideas to help me improve on this concept?

A planet's sentinel activity level changing? [Question]

Sentinel Troubles for a new player [Question]

So I just started last night. Did a few of the basic tasks up until i was ready to leave the planet. Took a break, then got back on with some friends. Next task was to find a signal source, ez. I land, and within a few seconds, sentinels are swarming me.

The game hint says hide from them, my friends say run away and they'll reset. Aight, no problem, i go hide in a cave I found. Chilling inside the cave for like.... 15 minutes at least, i see the markers for the sentinels clearly tracking my through the cave ceiling. Friend suggests I leave the planet and come back. I try to leave and get jumped in space. I manage to defeat them. I go to another planet. As soon as I land, sentinels are right there. I ended up having to log out, then back in to clear my threat level.

Ok, that wasn't fun, but it should be fine now, right? Nope. My mission is still on that planet. I go back to find the signal and it's the same story. This time i have a friend try to kite them away while i look for the stupid signal. I die once but this mostly works. I get a base started, thinking maybe it will be safe that way, and it......kind of is? At first. I go inside and my threat goes away. Cool! Except the second I harvest something (again, needed for the mission still on the planet) they're back. I go in my base. Safe right? Nope. I get the searching warning with a countdown. The countdown ends, then a mega loud sound as the sentinels get triggered again and another countdown starts. Repeat for infinity. Also sentinels keep clipping through my base walls and just fly around inside my base, tracking me.

Is this what I can expect for the whole game? Not gonna lie, was a pretty huge turn off...

The T.A.R.D.I.S. [Fan Work]

AUDIO LOG: INTERNAL DIAGNOSTIC — ENTRY 0042

“Right then... let’s try this again, shall we? You’re probably expecting a cool looking base or ship. Something shiny. Sleek. Maybe with wings. Nope... You’re standing in front of a blue box. An archaic Vy’keen enforcement unit, if we’re being generous. Stuck in the grass. Bit grumpy-looking. Smells faintly of ozone and existential dread.

Now go on and open the door.

There we are.

You see that? Console room, temporal relays, spinning things I absolutely didn’t install on purpose. Don’t touch the lever with the orange tape unless you want to wake up in the Permian period with a tail. Believe me, it’s awkward.

The whole place is dimensionally transcendental, which is just a posh way of saying it’s bigger on the inside. Time and space are sort of... folded. Like a lasagna. A very loud, glowing, occasionally unstable lasagna.

Anyway... if you’re hearing this, I’m probably off fixing history, chasing anomalies, or avoiding responsibility.

Oh, and there have been... issues... with the pool, and it's been blocked off. Don't ask. It would only drive you insane.

Time Coordinates set: Spacial geometrics locked, Temporal Drift 003. Put the kettle on, would you? Companions tend to wander off if left unsupervised."

Fabricating a Starship [Question]

One of the added features I've been dying to try out. Salvaged a few haulers with pieces I liked. Bought an S-class reactor. Go to the fabricator. And massively disappointed in the storage space. Used the big ball wings as they are supposed to have more slots. But it comes out at 36+18 which seems... small? None of the slots show as supercharged. Even if I grind a bunch of expansions to open up the cargo, not having many key slots for technology feels like it will be limiting.

Just curious if this is normal when crafting a ship?

Found the sentinel ship, thank you Reddit! [Screenshot]

Recently picked up the game after having it in my wishlist forever. Totally hooked! I'm a few days in and was still flying in the starter ship. Accidentally landed on a Dissonant planet and used Reddit posts to figure out how to get me a nice new ship.

I'm guessing the B grade isn't anything fancy, however I now have space to install upgrades! Now on to installing those drives the game has been pestering me about.

Ok QUESTION: What multi tool weapon type does the highest dps? Like destroying tons of sentinels quickly [Question]

I've tried all and got inconsistent results and not looking for one with play style (due to me being adaptable and able to play any play style) and was wondering which one melts sentinels the fastest. Also ammo resources aren't an issue (i mean I have been playing since 2016 so...). However I just want one that I can stick to and just melt them.

I've tried finding info but no luck as all of them have differing results. Just want pure dps numbers if possible per weapon.

Two Questions: Living Ship, Portal Glyphs [Question]

I’ve just stepped through the void egg mission(s) and got an S class. Are they all S, like exotics?

I’ve seen folks posting their planet info from the catalog screen (I think). They are displaying the planet glyphs there with the info. Is this a mod? I don’t see this on PS5. I know it would only show id I’ve discovered the portal.

Cheers.
