Stranger in a strange land achievement NMS [Question]

So, basically you need to find a planet that has activated [metal] thing and it's high chance that this planet will have extreme weather conditions. But what are the requirements to achieve this achievement? Like you need to be always outdoors or you can just get in a building and wait 48 sols?

Pirate Freighter B rank? [Question]

Just before I lose my mind, I'm doing the save scum method of saving in a previous system and then jumping to a system with a private freighter to try and get it S rank but so far its all just been C ranks, not even a B or an A rank. The price of the freighter changes and so do the storage and tech slots so I'm wondering is there no in between with a pirate freighter? Is it always only C or S? Or am I just getting really unlucky?

It could also be a case of this being my first pirate freighter so it will never be higher than a C rank but I hope that's not the case

Can I still finish the game? [Question]

Hello all travellers, I have a question to ask you. I didn't finish the story because I didn't want to reset the galaxy for fear that all my progress would be erased. Do I still have a chance to finish the game? Because the game tells me that I can return to the Atlas if I change my mind, I just don't know how to do it because the mission doesn't tell me anything, do you know anything? Can I still finish the game or am I screwed and have to start over?

Easier Alternative to Stasis Farm? šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø [Discussion]

I’ve done the stasis farm before, but it’s so many complex layers and takes forever to set up.

Does anyone have some alternative products or farms you set up that are simpler but still make valuable products?

I know I can do sentinel ship scrapping or piracy or other things for money. I’m specifically looking for something farm/crafting based, but a little simpler than stasis farms and all of its many layers of setup. šŸ‘šŸ»

My game settings on HP Victus - i5-13420H, RTX 4050, 16GB Ram, 512 nVme - My Experience, looks AMAZING [Information]

After playing for 20 hours, I dived into settings to see why my screen was tearing and ended up getting amazing results in quality. I was by default on Standard, went upto Enhanced, was meh, then High, was amazing, then Ultra and my jaw dropped.

My post is messy, very sorry, but just wanted to share my experience with the settings for anyone interested or having issues. I am new to NMS and new to gaming laptops, very new to AAA gaming as well. Still learning terminologies and technologies. Posting this cuz I know someone is out there who might be like I was for past 14 years not knowing the latest gaming-tech terms and bits.

Fidelity FX Super Resolution 2.0 (a.k.a. FSR 2.0) in the game's display settings and check between "Balanced" or "Quality" in the sub-setting of FSR 2.0.

You can also try using DLSS if you have an Nvidia card above RTX 3050. But for me, it had issues with planets rings, was showing big pixels instead of a proper ring when looking at the planet from space. Other than that, it was fine.

By default my setting was Standard, I tried Enhanced and was better. Then did High and was amazing, my laptop handled it easily. Now playing on Ultra and see no signs of heating or slowing down. Don't have to crank up every setting to ultra but you can check if it works for you. Just take an hour to see what works, will be worth it.

Also, have at least 16 GB of ram, 512 GB SSD,

and keep the laptop's backside lifted to allow airflow.

Clean the area for any dust, place it on a flat, solid surface like wood etc. A desk. DO NOT PLAY ON THE BED. OR SOFA or CARPET.

Get a software tool that shows you how much CPU, GPU, RAM is being utilized, what their temperatures are, to be completely aware of how the game is responding, and what situations in the game are causing issues (e.g....

Coming back to NMS after 4 years, what are your favorite things to do? [Question]

Im coming back to the game and interested to explore what's new. Last time I played it looks like I'd started a base and made 500Million doing a Cobalt/Ionized Cobalt scheme. I have a decent A class fighter and some other decent gear and guns.

I like the game but remember thinking it lacked a story or purpose. Has that changed?

And like the title says, what are people enjoying most with the game these days that I should look forward to or try out?

Thanks!

Learned the hard way there's no autosave on Survival mode... [Discussion]

Either that or I got extra super duper unlucky. I loaded up my new Survival difficulty pirate save, raided a few freighters, scored one of my own, found the perfect cave to build my base... and a power surge knocked me out. UPS did nothing. My whole system came down and brought my pirate Traveler with it. Loaded back in to find myself back at the crashed freighter, no freighter of my own, no upgraded multi-tool, no Roamer exocraft... I've been sent back in time.

Now to speedrun back to where I was! Hold my NipNip, I'm going in. With a save beacon or two this time.

Startup issue (steam version) [Bug]

Good afternoon, My friend is experiencing an issue with launching the game. We both have the same laptop model (acer nitro 16), and on my system the game runs without any problems. All drivers have been updated, the game has been reinstalled, but the issue still persists.

He managed to launch the game once, but we couldn't connect in multiplayer. Since then, every time he tries to start the game, it triggers a file verification process and crashes with the same error. We already tried ideas from other topics on reddit.

What else can we try to resolve this?

No Man’s Sky Technology Layout Optimizer AI v2.9.2 – AI-Powered Starship, Multitool & Freighter Builds [Information]

Hey Travellers —

If you’ve checked out my tool before, or you’re just hearing about it now, the latest version (v2.9.2) of the No Man's Sky Technology Layout Optimizer AI is live at šŸ‘‰ nms-optimizer.app!

With a long holiday weekend coming up for us here in the States, it’s a perfect time to get all your No Man's Sky starship layouts, multitool builds, and freighter technology arrangements optimized and ready for that next Expedition (whenever it arrives).

This update is all about polish and usability: Bigger buttons and smoother mobile performance for easier usage (and it won’t break your browser like some other popular resources šŸ˜‰). Personally, I think the desktop version looks even better though! New branded splash screen and cleaner UI inspired by the No Man's Sky game interface Added internationalization support with Spanish, French, and German translations (machine-generated for now — looking to make it better here!) Experimental 4x3 Pulse Engine layouts added, thanks to a request from u/Jupiter67 General code cleanup for a snappier experience

If you’re wondering why I call it ā€œAI,ā€ the tool blends traditional layout patterns with a TensorFlow machine learning model trained for weeks on end with tens of thousands of sample grids. This AI-guided inference helps predict the best placement of modules—especially for supercharged slots—making the optimizer smarter and faster than manual trial-and-error.

Whether you want to maximize adjacency bonuses, strategically utilize supercharged slots, or simply find the best technology layout for your gear, this web app helps you find the ideal configuration fast — no guessing, no endless trial-and-error.

Always...

A quick doodle of my captain! [Fan Work]

Oh man I haven’t drawn in forever mainly BECAUSE of this game😭but I’ve been wanting to draw my character in NMS bc why not LOL. I plan to make an actual drawing when I get the accessories I really want (which will probably take a while) but for now a doodle will suffice I think. Also a tiny doodle of her and Artemis who I PROMISE IM TRYING TO FIND but I keep doing everything BUT the main quests 😭

Anyways, hope that as I become more familiar with this game that I’ll draw more fanart! I think the geks are super cute (dinosaur fan moment) and the korvax are my robot friends (and if they had head options I liked then I would’ve made my character one bc yay robots) and the vy’keen…baboons :3

Serenity Villa – A Modern Log Cabin on an Alien-Esque Paradise planet [Video]

Serenity Villa, my latest base build — a modern log cabin nestled on a white-hued alien world. The villa features outdoor biospheres for farming, with an underground storage wing built into the side of the Hill behind the Villa. Subtle lighting accents and a lived-in feel make this one of my cleanest, calmest builds yet — while still being a practical base. What should I add next?

Harmonic Camp [Question]

So last night I found a harmonic camp... up until last night I hadn't played since 2021 (yay pc problems lol) so I was very much in "oh no what did I miss how do I play aaaaa oooo shiny cool planet" mode.

I didn't know what harmonic camps do until this morning when a friend mentioned they can be very useful.

Problem is I left that planet (I do have a base on that planet cuz it was cool as hell and I liked it) but now I can't find that camp again.

Do I have to go to a different planet to find a new harmonic camp now? Or can I somehow find the one I found before? I no longer have the yellow camp marker.

Also I found two robots in this planet that I fed crystals to.... it said "the 5th" at the camp and "the 8th" at some random spot on the planet near my base. Are there a bunch scattered around?

Thanks!

Interceptor maneuveribility [Question]

Even the maneuveribility stat is higher on the interceptor bu I have a way harder time tracking enemy ships in fights, so much that i even struggle to pop their shields.

Should I start playing in perma-death? [Question]

Hello! I started playing no man sky three days ago and created a permadeath save. I know I could die at any moment, and that actually makes the game more exciting.

But now Im not sure if I want to keep playing this save because if I die, I feel like Id be too lazy to start everything over again.

So heres my question: would it be better to finish the main story on a normal save first and then come back to permadeath? Or should I just keep playing the permadeath save like I was doing and accept the risk?

Might have found the best way to play for me (taking a break form permadeath) [Discussion]

Generally, I’m a permadeath player. I like high risk gameplay and it isn’t hard really anyway, just keeps you on your toes. But I’ve gotten to the center on perma several times, and one thing I’ve never really done is base building.

I love this game. But I do not love how stuff is gated behind the main story. I hate that I have to build up from scratch on a new save to be able to hurry and get to a new galaxy (I like to do most of my gameplay in random galaxies, not the typical Euclid/Calypso/Eissentam/whatever).

So I made a custom game, it’s basically normal but I made it so I lose all items on death, made rep gains take longer (I feel it’s more natural to grind for those) and also, I decided I’d turn on free purchases for the first explorer I found to buy tue ship and fully upgrade it, as well as S class hyperdrive modules, and S class scanner upgrades for multitool. Then I turned free purchases off and I plan on locking it.

This gives me one single ship that I can use for hyperdrive (range of 2149), and lets me get started on money making with the scammer upgrades. Also helps early game inventory a bit, and the custom mode lets me have more generous stack size limits, which is another annoyance in perma (it isn’t hard, it’s tedious).

I know this is ā€œcheatingā€ but it feels like a reasonable compromise. I still have to work for all the other ships and their upgrades, multi tools, frigates, freighters, etc. Still have to do Artemis again, but it’ll be less annoying with this ship.

Curious if anyone else has found a way to play like this that works for them, or if most just prefer default settings and to avoid ā€œallā€ free stuff (or just make everything free forever, alternatively, which for me I think would kill the game as I have to have stuff to work towards).

Settler expeditions never fail [Discussion ]

Before the Beacon update I was accustomed to sometimes losing settlers that went out on expeditions. Since the update, however, they’ve survived every time, and I was wary at first but they’re even coming back from ā€œoh we just want to check out the Distant Nest of Horrifying Monstersā€ with cash and nanites. This is across four settlements, in Permadeath, and I’ve run out of fingers to count their successes on.

Anyone else seeing their brave and foolhardy wards making it against unreasonable odds every time?

I may have discovered a hidden ending — something happened when I finished the game that doesn’t match anything I’ve ever seen [Video]

Hey everyone. This might sound strange, but I think I just experienced something… different. Possibly unique.

Yesterday, I reached the center of the galaxy and ā€œfinishedā€ the game. But what happened during the final transition felt wrong — or maybe intentional in a way I can’t explain.

I was using a broken Sentinel Interceptor (still damaged).

I completed the entire main questline without dying once.

I was not in a resonant system when I reset the Atlas.

And then… something happened.

Instead of the usual reset, the camera slowly pulled away from the galaxy... and the star systems began to disappear. Not blink. Not fade. Just… vanish. First visible, then fewer and fewer… until only light remained. No UI glitches. No loading screen. Just... silence.

For the first few seconds, I thought maybe it was just a rendering bug. But I’ve watched videos of the normal ending — this wasn’t it. It was too clean. Too intentional.

I took screenshots throughout. I’ll post them in the comments for context.

Then today… I read about 3I/ATLAS, the 20km interstellar object currently passing through our real solar system. The name. The timing. The fact that I just completed the Atlas path. I know it’s probably nothing — but I can’t ignore how deeply connected it feels.

Walking around the Anomaly [Information]

I was just walking around in the anomaly, and someone was trying to ask me how I was doing it. I couldn't tell them, because I play on Xbox, and without a USB keyboard attached I have no way of accessing text chat. So I thought I'd post here in case they happen to use Reddit, or someone else wonders how as well. I don't know if it's something you can do on a computer with a mouse and keyboard. But for me, as I use a controller, to walk you simply have to push the movement stick very gently. I'm sure many others have discovered this as well.

It's just something I've been doing lately, because it occurred to me that everyone just runs and boosts everywhere as fast as they can. So I just decided to change things up a bit.

Settlement Funds Question [Question]

I'm currently sitting in my settlement, it has been thriving way before the update. My question is what happens to the surplus funds? My productivity is twice my debt, so how come when someone comes offering tech or something I have to work off the debt? As overseer, I could pay that OOP, but my settlement should be rolling in funds.

Side note, this post comes behind a new settlement dispute resolution. I can either collect a fine or confiscate belongings (+6k settlement reserves). Why aren't these reserves used when visitors come peddling their services? Entity-€„₩ has better things to do than work off some silly debt incurred.

Mayday [Bug]

Anyone ever encountered a frigate diving in to the ground I followed it all the way to it's ultimate demise. I think I probably know what caused this. I was sitting in my starship in a vertical landing pad on my orbital base so that must have messed up the spawn orientation of the frigates. Still a pretty cool glitch.

Is it possible to get Freighter Hyperdrive upgrades from Dreadnaught Encounters? [Question]

Hi All,

I've had my dream freighter for a few months now, and have done several Dreadnaught battles to get upgrades, but every single one I've found has been a fleet upgrade rather than a Freighter Hyperdrive upgrade.

I've done so many, in fact that I've reached the maximum number of fleet upgrades (15 S-class upgrades), and given away over a dozen more - but I haven't found a single Freighter Hyperdrive upgrade.

Are these only available from derelict freighters, or have I just been exceptionally unlucky?

What can we do with settlements, now? [Question]

So I get that settlements have just received a very much needed re-work, I've been going through my settlement and acquired 3 more, I have one settlement per race now. Which is great.

But after a while I do not know exactly what am I supposed to do? I can upgrade one building at a time, and every 1h maximum there is a random event happening which will do something. Can I do something to actively foster productivity, population growth or building the necessary buildings apart from upgrading the already existing ones and wait for me to win the lottery on the hourly event?

Can I do something to build the missing buildings other than just wait to get lucky until the population decides they want to build something?

What am I missing?

Why can't I recruit a 4th member to my squadron? [Question]

I found a Dissonant planet with Sentinel ships I really like, so I got one for myself and four more, so I can trade them to NPCs and then recruit them to my squadron. It worked fine the first three times, but now every time I trade the final ship and talk to the pilot, the "recruit to squadron" option isn't there. I've checked and made sure I don't already have the spot on the squadron filled. The "recruit to squadron" option is there when I talk to the pilot before I trade them the Sentinel ship, but every time I trade the ship, I'm unable to recruit them. Anybody else ever had this problem? Am I doing something wrong? I play on Switch, if that makes a difference.

Autophage Reverse Engineer the Sentinel Interceptor (Fabrication) [Discussion]

I would like to see the Autophage reverse engineer the Sentinel Interceptor to make it a fabricated ship type.

Autophage already "Help themselves to the best technology", so this could work with lore and meet player demand.

And I don't think it would decrease interest in ship hunting as you would still have to hunt to pair appearance, stats, and with supercharged slot configuration, just as you do now with fabricated fighters, solars, and haulers.

Also, I still hunt for traditional fighters even though fighter fabrication is available - so they're not mutually exclusive. I both hunt and build them too.

Who would like to see Interceptors added to the list of Fabricated ships?

[MoD] Infinite number of saves / restore points / loop backup-er [Fan Work]

Automatic Save Backup Script (.bat)
Created this small batch script after nearly losing a 100-hour game save — and my sanity along with it. šŸ˜…
It’s also handy if you’re unhappy with a decision you made in-game and want to roll back easily.

Features: Automatically creates a backup of your save folder "DefaultUser" every X seconds (customizable). Or press any key in the console to instantly generate a new backup manually.

Uploaded at Nexus Mod - Hope it helps !

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3604

HOW TO:
Create a backup folder anywhere.
Edit the script with notepad with infos below.
Run/double click the script / keep the console opened / close it when you stop playing. ("press any key" to create instant save)
Set Source=C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\HelloGames\NMS
set Destination=C:\YOUR backups folderĀ adressĀ  (in your destination folder > right click on the folder's icon in the adress bar and "copy adress as text" / paste it here)

timeout 600Ā // means will create a backup every 600sec / 10mn so (3600 every hours etc... etc... put any value you want)

Add note: each backup folder is ~40Mo / make sure to clean your folder sometimes =)

Helpful Hint for Noobs… [Screenshot]

When you setup your base (especially during the tutorial)… take advantage of Exosuit Drop Pods.

You can return to them at any time after the first use to install Exosuit Expansions without needing to unlock at Space Stations or New Pods you find.

Saves you units as well as resources when starting your travels.

Have fun out there !

Life support not going down? [Question]

I started an Abandoned/Permadeath save for funsies and initially had survival elements to standard, but neither hazard or life support was going down very fast on my starter planet so I changed it to Challenging to test.

Is there another setting I could have changed that is interacting weirdly with this? Just seems weird as now it’s more forgiving than even Normal mode.

My adventures on Switch 2 so far [Screenshot]

I’m loving the game on Switch 2 so far, despite the compromises with being behind a patch or two and the low frame rate compared to the Steam Deck (the other place I play).
I’ve actually found the DLSS upscaling method makes the game look better than even the Steam Deck. The edges are smooth with a sharp image, compared to jaggies and shimmering on the Deck, even if it’s running 10fps or so higher on the Deck. Docked Switch 2 looks fantastic too - comparable to current gen consoles. How are you all finding it on Switch 2?

No way…I freaking hate permadeath [Discussion]

Ugh, I’m so pissed. I played permadeath for my first ever run with very little understanding of the game. I enjoy the challenge of that sort of thing. Somehow, after dying and restarting a few times within 5-10 minutes of playing, I managed to progress for several hours of play, learning the language of the people of the system, exploring a ton of the planet, finding and repairing a class B ship, surviving some sentinel encounters, gathering a lot of resources, etc. all within this system. Then I finally got a warp drive set up and ready to go to other systems and suddenly while I was at my most vulnerable, just trying to understand how warp works, I suddenly get attacked by another pirate ship. I was FAR away from the planet (I was on the middle of pulse travel and suddenly unable to escape or land the ship anywhere).

I don’t hate that I died. I hate that I was blindsided so brutally during a basic tutorial moment with no where to go and panic setting in, several hours of gameplay, only to BARELY not kill the other ship in time.

I don’t know if that was a scripted battle or not but if it wasn’t and I was just really unlucky, then, well…ugh.

I know I’m kind of asking for it when choosing to play permadeath without even knowing how to play the game yet but by then I thought I had gotten a basic handle on things. Like I said, not mad I was killed. I’m mad I was attacked the way I was while I was in the middle of space and in the middle of a basic tutorial moment and wasn’t even given any kind of explanation on how to fight these things. Even if I was given a basic tutorial on dogfighting I could at least feel like I died in a worthy fight.

I’m just venting. It was a really fun game up to that point. I just am feeling really deflated.

No Man's sky on Switch 2 is in a unacceptable state [Bug]

So I really Love this game, Love the devs and our Community of travelers.

But what is at the Moment unacceptable, IS the broken state of the Switch 2 Version. Since the Last Patch the Game Crashes at least once every hour without a specific reason. Yesterday it happened again, im the middle of doing a Weekend Mission. I lost over 1 hour of Playtime because of this. Then i tried to restart the Mission, Just for the Mission to now be bugged and Not able to complete IT anymore. I frequently fall below the Terrain and falling into a void, villagers in settlements dont load, rooms in the frigate are suddenly gone and I could Go on. This is Just Not acceptable, even with nintendoy slow Update approval process. And the Cherry on top is, that every small Bugfix Kills the Crossplay, because they dont follow a Release schedule and Just Release everywhere at different Times.

I thought they worked over a year on this Port? How can they allow for this to be released in such a broken state?

So unfortunately, I wont Play anymore, since I have more valuable Things to do in my life then constantly Losing hours of Progress Just because the Game Crashes.

Regarding Player limits and object persistence [Question]

So I have been doing some thinking about how the game handles players and bases while online. So to my understanding if I build a base it can been seen/encountered by everyone regardless if I am online or not and this extends to changes I make to the environment HOWEVER there is a limit to 32 players per solar system. This is where my question comes in. What happens to player number 33? If a player over the limit tries to enter a full instance does the game simply create a duplicate instance? What happens to changes in the environment? Do they carry over? If I am player 33 and place an object down do they other 32 players see it just appear out of nowhere since we are not in the same instance but share the same persistent world? I don't need sleep I need answers!

Somebody fixed Multiplayer desync bug, pls test it and tell us if it works [Information]

source: https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/6679490060455273315/

How I Was Able To FINALLY Fix Multiplayer! [2024]So I spent hours and hours combing the internet for solutions, and I want to share for anyone else having this issue.

This is the first step I took:

  1. Make sure that the game is Closed and Not Running
  2. Go to Windows Settings > Time & Language > Date & Time
  3. Turn on 'Set Time Automatically' AND 'Set Time Zone Automatically'
  4. Make sure that the Time Zone that Windows chooses is the right one:
    -If it isn't: Turn OFF 'Set Time Zone Automatically' but LEAVE ON 'Set Time Automatically' and manually set the correct Time Zone
    -If it is: Go to step 5
  5. Click the 'Sync Now' button
  6. Reopen No Man's Sky and try to join your friend; if this doesn't work try it through Steam Overlay

(Credit: FireandIce829)

If this does not work, as it didn't for me, it was because my time zone was locked in the off position, and the option to change it was permanently greyed out. Here is the fix for that:

You MUST set your location manually in the Privacy settings in Windows.
1-Go to Start > Settings > Privacy > Location.
2-Under Default location, select Set default.
3-The Windows Maps app will open. Follow the instructions to change your default location.

Once THIS step was done, and my location was set, I no longer had any issues connecting to my friends. I really hope this can help someone out there, so you dont have to experience the frustration this can cause. Safe travels fellow Entities!

Multi-Tool Rarity/Usefulness Help [Screenshot]

Hey all,

I play a lot of NMS but I'm hardly involved in the community as I like the blind experience of exploring the galaxy alone, but I'd appreciate some feedback.

I just found the yellow multi-tool and I've had the blue one for so long I can't remember. Is this style of multi-tool always A class? What is this style called? I've only found two in 300ish hours so I'm guessing their rare? I've had my blue one so long that I don't know how they stack up against other multi-tools so are these ones really good? I've had no complaints but I just don't know anything about them and haven't seen much on them. Thanks you in advance for any comments!

Do guaranteed dreadnaught battles occur if you don't already own a freighter? [Question]

has anyone else noticed that? maybe the snapping is better, but rotating objects is still a pain, alot of the time when im building, i want to rotate an object and i just cant get it to rotate into the position that i want, it either does a full 360, or it snaps into a different angle or to different side of my building. still very annoying.

Idea for a feature or mechanic in no man sky [Suggestion]

This is my first post

Hey, I’ve been thinking… what if No Man’s Sky added something like this?

You know how we fly around, build bases, and trade stuff? Imagine if you could actually run a whole transport company — hiring NPC pilots to fly your freighters and passenger pods across star systems while you manage contracts with different factions.

You could have sponsors backing you, giving you cool perks and access to special upgrades. And on top of business stuff, you’d be able to build a militarized empire — own and upgrade space stations, protect your trade routes with armed fleets, and expand your influence by competing with rival companies.

There could even be boarding parties, bodyguards, and contractors you hire for missions or battles. Plus, a dynamic auction system to buy and sell rare goods, including stuff you craft yourself. And all of this would work offline, so it’d run smoothly on Switch and other platforms.

Basically, it’d add a whole new layer of strategy and action to the game — not just exploring, but really building and ruling your own little corner of the galaxy.

And also what if we were able to have a terminal on space stations and frieghter so you can see your business.

and what if you could also create multiple business and create auctions where you and npc’s can bid.

on switch you could hire npc’s since console does not support multiplayer

Wouldn’t that be awesome?

I have been thinking about all of this before I even got the game

Couldnt salvage first stranded ship I found [PS5] [Question]

Spoiler :

2nd quest at Alone among the Stars, where we go to repair Artemis' beacon, with their ship having stranded right next to it . Last few times I played this, I salvaged that ship . Was a nice credit boost . This time, the ship was not solid object ( I was able to walk right through it ) and it was not salvageable .

Is it only me ?

Is it possible to tell base stats? [Question]

Is it possible to tell the base stats of ships and freighters outside of the golden line? Like is there a way to hide the bonuses that a ship is getting to compare what each ship is like normally?

This is mainly for whenever I get an S rank pirate freighter so if I find another I can tell if it's worth swapping or not

How do I get this ship? [Question]

So I was informed of the existence of this ship and went to the coordinates to try and find it. I'm not sure if there's a glitch with my game or not but I have to land over a kilometer away just to get on the ground. After making the arduous hike, the ship is never there. A lot of other players have built bases around it, and I made the mistake of initially going there online, which I think is part of the problem. Is there any way for me to circumvent this? I'm mostly interested in the ship for the design – I haven't liked any of the other sentinel ships I've come across - so the fact that it's an S rank and the design and color scheme I would like is a bonus. in all honesty, I don't particularly care about some of the other aspects since I can upgrade the ship overtime. So if there's another one similar somewhere else, please let me know. This is in the Euclid Galaxy.

So, playing on steam, have about 60 hours so far and loving it! I'm happily juggling most of the content without diving into being an outlaw or anything yet haha.

Question is: I see a bunch of cool ass, A/S grade Sentiel ships that people have and would also like one! Is there a surefire way to get good class/good designed ships?

Vent - did the Nutrient processor UI change??? [Suggestion]

Getting into cooking for the new Nutrient Ingestor Exosuit addon but it seems like they changed the user interface for the cooking processor to the raw ingredients/processed ingredients/etc?! Now I have to scroll through literally tens of pages of storage container inventory to find what I'm looking to put into the nutrient processor every single time!

I want to be able to put the ingredients I plant to use in my exosuit, and then access just my exosuit inventory instead of literally everything. I feel like at one point that's how it used to be, but I've been away from NMS from about a year.

Am I doing something wrong here? Has anybody found a better way to use this interface? Thanks!

Beginner that REALLY wants to love NMS [Question]

Hey everyone, I hope this finds you well!

So I've picked up NMS about 6 times and only get an hour or so in and it loses me. But as the title says I really want to get hooked and dive in. Last time I played was maybe 2022 or 23.

I started playing about 2 months ago. Now, after around 100 hours of gameplay, I don't know what to do anymore. I have two S-class settlements, an S-class starship, a class B freighter. The Nexus missions are pretty much always the same, and so are the ones at the space station. I’ve finished the Apollo and Artemis missions. I thought I had completed the Atlas ones too, but they still show up in the log, and if I try to continue them, I’m at the point where at every Atlas station I just share information about the universe and get a word of the Atlas language in return and frankly... I don't care. I really don’t know what to do in the game anymore (I'm playing in standard mode).

Tried using Chat GPT 4o to mod the game, and… [Information]

… don’t try. Was using a save from abandoned mode, created an entire story with new biomes, building parts, some terrain elements. After 48 hours of repeated reassurances, it finally became clear that ChatGPT can’t execute on its claims and assurances. Every time it was done and ready for a file transfer, either files were deleted, session was cleared, download links failed, files were only ā€œbookmarksā€, etc., nothing of any actual substance. At the end of a long and extremely painful process, it had me copying and pasting text to a notepad that it would then have me convert back to save files. Unbeknownst to me- because ChatGPT only discloses limitations after an attempt fails- never before- I discovered that the very act of choosing ā€˜select all’ from the session window in the ChatGPT interface, truncates and changes the code.

Of course, each time there was an issue, the AI knew what the issue was and why it had occurred, bit for whatever reason could not think to anticipate the issue and avoid it before going through the effort.

Complete waste of a weekend. I’m here to tell you so that you won’t waste yours.

Happy Trails, Travelers!

Definitive proof that our reality is a simulation!!! Measuring true atmospheric speed of NMS starships. [Information]

Joking aside, it has been known for a while that Boosted speed in atmosphere, close to planet's surface, is not true to ship's speedometer. While the game displays the speed as calculated by all the boosts from mods, the actual speed is often much slower!

Current theory is that the game limits atmospheric speeds because terrain generation is not instant and could cause the ship to clip through obstacles at very high speeds.

I've seen some speculations that there is a hard limit, or that there are diminishing returns on boost modifications, but no definitive answer, so I decided to check for myself. I tried to make these measurements as accurate and fair as I can, considering the game limitations. For that reason, I've tried to include measurement errors into the data, such as it is.

To be fair, the game seems to accurately estimate the time it takes to reach the target when moving at constant speed. But first I had to verify that this is true by timing the travels myself. Also, readout of time estimates is tricky because it changes with acceleration.

SETUP:
-Fixed distance between 2 bases of 37'218 u.
-Manual timer control with programmable mouse button for minimum reaction time.
-12 Starships, 3 Modification Configurations, 2 Power Distribution modes.
-2 measurements of Normal Speed (control) + 6 Boosted Speed per starship, totaling in 96 separate measurements overall.

Google docs spreadsheet with all data:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18ciPHYyBKStzleRJE_ehvAOZgd2JF23ZGl46hyZ6k1w/edit?usp=sharing

I've included images to illustrate what 3 different mod configs mean, but to put it in words:

  • 4 SC = All supercharged slots are used to increase Boosted speed
  • 0 SC = No supercharged slots are used
  • None = No modifications which might increase Boosted speed are...

How Does a Base get the Mine Tag/Symbol Next to the Name? [Question]

I done screwed up this time šŸ˜…šŸ˜­ [Question]

I accidentally switched out ships (I was being lazy and didn't want to go back 800m to my then current ship (It didn't have enough fuel to be summoned, so I summoned a different ship that had fuel. ))

my previous ship had all of my "oh shi-" supplies and I can no longer access them, (most importantly my warp cells) normally, this would be no biggie, except I am in a deserted system so no space station. also I only have one more launch before I'm grounded with this ship. I also have grahgrah in my inventory just to add insult to the injury, so I keep getting probed šŸ˜‚

(my freighter also doesn't have the drive to make it to this system)

I fairly recently got a PS5, and expected to be able to download the PS5 version of the game with my PS4 disc. I am having difficulty doing so, and my research so far makes me think that I may have the wrong region of a disc to get the free upgrade ... I got a used copy for cheap back when, and a lot of the writing on the case is in Arabic. Looking at the small print on the back it is "licensed for sale in Middle East and Africa only." Did I mess myself up being a tightwad when I got the disc? Maybe it wasn't worth flying halfway around the world for a cheaper disc after all.

This game needs a combat overhaul, how about factories that we can destroy to prevent sentries spawning in a wide area and giant factories that we enter and blow up to liberate the whole planet. We need, waaaaaay more weapons and actual cool ones not just weak star changes or shoot faster, no no no, give us grenade launchers, rocket launchers, shot guns, flamethrowers(to use on person) bows even!! Space combat should be smoother and more close quarters like dog fights... And more ship weapons.

Inconsistent number of Running Mould [Question]

I found a patch of running mould on a bubble planet with annoying gravity storms. There were 5 mold balls when I found it. I spent a few hours building a base shelter around it so I could work in peace then went to make a second harvest. When I got back there were 8 balls! (Not cocaine lol). I worked on the base some more and started multiple runs, but each time I came back there were only 3 and a hexaberry plant made a surprise appearance.

Question about the current status of the architecture. [Question]

I am a new traveler who started after the BEACON update and now have about 300 hours.

I have a question about the current status of the architecture.

I see a lot of bug reports and other reports that much of it is currently broken.

However, I started after BEACON, so I don't really know what it was like before it was broken.

If anyone can tell me what the original condition was like and how it is currently broken, I would appreciate it.

When I was building, the foundation construction did not appear to have been able to change the overall color and material (it was not changed).

I think some of the color change parts are too small to tell.

Some of the walls on the alloy parts are now wood textured.

The stone floor was a mixture of areas that were changed to weathered textures that reverted back to their original state and vice versa.

Also, I tried to make a circular floor with a glitch build, but I found it difficult to use because the overlapping areas were very flickering and constantly flashing.

I am using PS4, so I am wondering if this is a hardware processing issue. Is this not a problem with PCs or other hardware?

I've seen some past videos and images of wood with vivid colors such as red, white and green, but currently there seems to be only dull colors. I am wondering if this has been changed or if it is part of a bug.

I know this is a long story, but I would be happy to hear from anyone who can help me. (Sorry if this is not clear as I am using a translation)

Game Update Suggestion: The "STARFALL" update [Suggestion]

šŸš€ Concept Proposal: No Man’s Sky – STARFALL

A Space Combat & Multiplayer Expansion Idea for the Community

Hey Travelers,

Over the years, Hello Games has given us so many incredible updates – Echoes, Endurance, Waypoint, and most recently Beacon. But there’s one frontier that still feels full of untapped potential: deep space combat and meaningful multiplayer systems.

So here’s an idea I’ve been working on – a concept update called STARFALL. It’s a full-on expansion proposal focused on advanced space combat mechanics, dynamic faction warfare, and persistent multiplayer systems. I’d love to hear your thoughts, improvements, or if you'd want something like this too. āš”ļø 1. Advanced Space Combat Mechanics šŸ›ø Player-Controlled Capital Ships Fly frigates and destroyers directly Manage shields, engines, weapons, and fighter hangars Customize internal layouts and ship modules Crew stations onboard for multiplayer roles or AI assistance šŸ’„ Tactical Combat Subsystem targeting: disable shields, engines, or weapons mid-fight Power distribution: shift energy between systems on the fly New weapons: railguns, EMPs, plasma torpedoes, ion disruptors Boarding mechanics: disable enemy ships and loot from within šŸ›°ļø 2. Interstellar Conflict & Faction Warfare šŸ›”ļø Evolving Faction Territories Factions dynamically gain and lose control of star systems Join real-time battles that impact faction borders Territory bonuses like trade discounts or reinforcements šŸ“œ Faction Mission System 2.0 Earn rank and unlock exclusive ships and tech Take on raids, convoy defense, or bounty hunts Global live events where player actions determine system fate šŸ¤ 3.

Idea: STARFALL – Space Combat & Multiplayer Expansion for No Man’s Sky? [Suggestion]

Hey Travelers,

I’ve been thinking about how No Man’s Sky could seriously level up its space combat and multiplayer stuff — so here’s a rough concept to get the discussion going. 1. Space Combat: What would you hype? Directly pilot capital ships like frigates and destroyers, not just your tiny fighter Manage shields, weapons, and engines for real tactical depth New weapon types like railguns, EMPs, and boarding mechanics to take over enemy ships Target subsystems in fights (disable engines first, then move in) 2. Dynamic Factions & Wars? Factions actively capturing and losing star systems Real-time battles you can jump into Rewards for backing factions or joining live events 3. Multiplayer: More than just co-op Bases stay online and visitable even when you’re offline Clans with unique ships, missions, and crew roles (pilot, gunner, engineer) PvP bounties, warzones, and kill/reward systems Coop missions that actually require teamwork 4. Crew System Hireable AI crew with skills you can upgrade Friends can join as crew roles on your ship Solo players get AI assistants with personalities

What do you think? Would you be down for something like this? Too much? Just right? Would love to hear your takes.

Let’s make space combat and multiplayer actually worth the hype.

— Fellow Traveler

(Hey Mods – I know some big posts get flagged, but I promise this isn’t copy-paste or AI. I’m just a fan with some ideas and would love real feedback from the community. Please let this one live :))

No creature rarity / trading yet? [Discussion]

Recently got the game on the summer sale, last time I played was in 2019 on my ps4. Didn't get into it much back then, but im committed now with the years of cool content thats been added.

I was however surprised to see that the creature / wildlife systems remained largely untouched in my initial hours. Has hello games explained at some point in the past why animal rarities and capturing / trading animals isnt going to be apart of NMS?

I was always fond of Spores mechanics with capturing animals. It was fun to go to different planets, find new goofy creatures and zap them up for 'research purposes' and terraforming new planets. NMS is absolutely ripe for this kind of capture mechanic. You go around, find different rarities of animals that procedurally generate with unique designs / skins, and sell them for monies or collect them. Finding a top tier animal would be extremely rare but lucrative, it just sounds perfect for the game.

What do you guys think?

Version Mismatch Issue Between Switch and PC (5.7.2 vs 5.7.3) [Question]

I am experiencing an issue with a version mismatch that prevents me from playing multiplayer with my friend. I am playing No Man's Sky on Nintendo Switch 2, which is currently on version 5.7.2. However, my friend on PC has updated to version 5.7.3, and we are unable to join each other's sessions due to a "version mismatch" error.

May I know is there an expected release date for version 5.7.3 on the Nintendo Switch 2, or any other way we can resolve this to play together?

Thank you so much!!

Is the combat finally worth it in this game? [Question]

Hey guys,

I've been trying to get into this game for a long time. It almost looks like the perfect game for me except....... there was no combat when I tried it. I mean, I'm going to be honest as well, whenever I tried it, I only played it for maybe 3 or 4 hours because the tutorial is a pain in the a**.

I've seen the game had multiple updates lately and I was just wondering if the combat is good now. I know it will never be the main focus of the game, unfortunatelly, but I hate that the game is just based on crafting.

Any feedback?

I want NPC companions… [Discussion]

This has been one of my top things I’ve wanted other than Gas Giants (which we got and it’s beautiful). I just see so many characters and talk to so many interesting looking creatures. I want to be able to have a crew of Korvax follow my lead of discovery. Or to have a crew of Vykeen follow me on my sentinel onslaught.

We have Squadrons, but they only help out in space. They already have names and such, wouldn’t it be cool if when you landed on a planet, your squadron lands next to you and follows you?

This has been something I’ve wanted for a while and I feel like it could be added to a lot of different things. Settlements could be more useful because occasionally a good traveler will move in that you can hire. Or just adding more functionality to Squadrons or your freighter.

We have companions, but they are just pets that really don’t do anything but follow you and lactate alien muck. I want to make friends with the beings in the world, because honestly the player always feel very alienated compared to the other species. Even though they stay at your outpost and run your freighter.

Freighter use ? [Question]

I'm a newish player (100hrs) and recently got a Freighter. Is there a difference being a C-class of S-class ? I never travel on it. I just use it for extra storage and Frigate missions. Is there any other use I'm not aware of ? I'm happy travelling in my space ship, so I don't see the point to upgrade Freighter tech, or even to a better class. Maybe I would upgrade it to another Freighter with more storage, but that's it. Is there something I'm missing about Freighters ?

[Bug?] Lost 12,000 Nanites on Hyperdrive Upgrade I Couldn’t Install or Sell Properly [Bug]

Hey everyone, just need to rant a bit.

Today I was playing No Man’s Sky and went to a Space Station, where I bought a Hyperdrive upgrade for my ship for 12,000 nanites.

However… when I tried to install it, I realized I couldn’t. Turns out this upgrade is apparently meant only for the shipbuilder - i.e. when you’re building custom ships from scratch. So it’s useless for a regular ship.

Then I tried to sell it back, but the upgrade wasn’t visible to the vendor in either my exosuit or ship inventory. I did manage to sell it at the trade terminal - but I didn’t get any nanites back, and the upgrade module disappeared completely from my inventory. So I basically lost 12,000 nanites for nothing.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a known bug, or is there any fix or way to recover my nanites? I’m pretty frustrated, because that’s a lot of nanites down the drain.

Thanks for any help!

What's the point of settlement reserves? [Question]

I am newer to the game with only 115 hours. I have read several posts on settlements and watched videos - my 4 settlements are all out of debt and have very high productivity. It seems like a lot of people have complaints about them but the one thing I haven't seen anything on is settlement reserves once debt is cleared, Most of my buildings are S-tier except a couple, I haven't maxed out everything like happiness and population but whenever I can I've been donating settlement expedition funds back to the settlement rather than taking the pocket full of nanites I'd get out of it. Yet, when I need to make an immediate repair or aid a stranger, I incur debt and the production of my output resets because of this debt. Is this intended and why? God forbid I get some radon every 4 hours just for production to stop because I want to aid Fuckface the Gek for 7000 units. I've been taking the product out before hand but why even have an option to donate to settlement reserves when they evidently don't exist?

Building is hard but on god I will prevail [Screenshot]

Hiiii this is like, my actual first ever proper base in NMS that I’m working on rn!! I mean technically there’s like, bases that have been built before this but that was honestly just me trying to make sure I had access to resources and there’s literally only pathways LOL (although I do plan to give those bases some love when I get ideas). This one’s gonna be this kind of ancient looking building with fossils n various things I collect from different planets n stuff.

Unfortunately since I’m a new player I don’t have access to everything I want to make it look how I want to, and also I’m still getting used to the building controls (ohhh how I miss planet zoo and prehistoric kingdom…nothing happened I just wish I could edit stuff here like I do in those LMAOO). It irks me when I’m trying to place something down but I move just an inch and suddenly it’s somewhere completely different and it’s times like those where I wish I had those arrow moving things in building editors. I’ve also ran into the problem of ā€œthere’s no roofs for how the thing is builtā€ bc I wanted to make it hexagon shaped and did not think ahead. My solution? Big ancient decor to pretend it’s that LOL. I’m gonna have to change some colors around to make it all work but oh well.

ā€œWhy ancient themed and fossilsā€ bc it’s on an overgrown ruined planet that has sooo many fossils and actually has a dinosaur looking creature so I just HAD to make a base here!! Basically it’s my dream planet LOL. Well it’s actually a moon and it’s like the only place in that system that isn’t hell but shhhh. Seriously tho, I don’t think I’ve had any crazy weather or anomaly events there at all so it’s really chill, all I gotta worry about are the T.Rex creatures and something else trying to eat me (and failing).

Anyways all that to say: Not sure when I’ll be done...

Finished Atlas Quest Questions [Question]

I was reading about the history of some of the races and it said that Atlas had to repair the sentinels after battles. Apparently there was a very long period of time that allowed the Gek to take over almost everything. Eventually Atlas was able to repair the sentinels.

If this is a simulation, wouldn't Atlas be able to just will everything into existence? It seems like Atlas interfered directly with some things, like the travelers, so why not with the sentinels?

New Player [Discussion]

Just finished my first few hours of playing No Mans Sky. Here's some thoughts. 1. Love it. The music really captures you from tbe beginning. I was worried it wouldn't be immersvive but it definitely is. 2. It looks like base building material may be limited. I'd love to see more. 3. It keeps referencing pinning things but I still have no idea how to do this. 4. It took me a while to realise every new mission defaults to the one being tracked. 5. Everytime I think I've "got it" something else happens to blow my mind. Love that there's always something else around the corner. 6. Making units seems easy. Making nanites much much slower. 7. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the whole learning languages deal. Such a great idea. 8. I don't really have any idea right now how to keep getting tritium (sp?) for the Pulse drive but a few asteroids in my starter system had some. Hopefully it is just as easy in any system? 9. Falling into water and realising there's a whole new world down there was awesome. 10. Stepping into a cave and realising there's a whole new world in there was awesome. 11. No idea how to figure out what systems import and export what goods but hopefully after traveling back and forth a few times it will be second nature. 12. Is there a way to perform a manual landing? I'm used to Elite Dangerous and loved doing that.

Every so often crashed freighters come about and honestly my favorite part about them was the crash logs and the whole mystique around them, but for a while now, every single one I come across just says "ERROR...

Played the game for hundreds of hours around release and the few years after but stopped playing since and I keep seeing updates rolling, so as the title says I'm wondering if the multiplayer/co-op section evolved from the primitive form it was in last I checked.

New Player - Lost and need Finding. [Question]

Hi NMS community! I picked up this game during the Steam Sale and have been playing it for about a week now! I am having an absolute blast! A few things that I am trying to figure out and wanted to see if I can get some help here.

Found a drop pod and unlocked an upgrade to my Exosuit. I thought it automatically added a slot, but did not realise that there was a green button at the bottom that I had to click to complete the upgrade. Found out at my next drop pod when I paid close attention! Is there somehow I can find my way back to the unlocked drop pod? I know the planet, but can't seem to find a way to locate the pod.

Similarly, was doing a quest that had a distress signal and an A Class ship that I claimed (Hurray! What an upgrade to my starter C class!). Then I got attacked by purple sentinels. Since I did not have a great weapon I could not damage them fast enough and they kept healing up, so I just jumped on my ship and ran back to space! Now I cannot find this ship. I searched online and realised I can summon the ship, but when I try to summon it, it says critical damage to the ship. I searched some more and found a recommendation to summon it from the anomaly, that did not work either. Any tips on how I can go about finding my ship on this planet?! I spent about 3 hours yesterday scouring the planet to no avail! I am gutted as this would have been a significant upgrade for me!

This one is no biggie, I left my portable refiner somewhere on a planet and forgot to pick it up before I flew out.

Ni man's sky save failure [Question]

I changed my name on Xbox, I have No man's sky on Xbox app. Since then my game refusing to "recognize me". My saves are gone, and when I'm in game, there is no way to save my game, even if I try save Points. Is it something to do with the name change? Or should I just buy the game again?

I messed up [Discussion]

I kinda broke the game I had been playing for years now and my spirit went with it, I have a second save file but it just doesn't feel the same

Damn my impatients, I was trying to unlock the fishing head the save editor and let me tell you - DO NOT DO THIS. My game works fine but now I can't use the character modification thing, it won't accept any inputs and change anything with the appearance modifier

TLDR: I borked my game and now I'm sad 😢

I just had to put it out into the world. I know it's on me for breaking my game and I don't see a way to fix it

"THE ATLAS GAUNTLET" - A DOUBLE STACKED BASE WITH A 1ST PERSON STYLED CLOSE QUARTERS MAP/ COLOSSEUM ARENA (Isdoraijung galaxy) [Screenshot]

Noticed there aren't many PvP bases, nor do I barely run into any since they are extremely rare to come by in the first place, so I decided to create my own right in the middle of one the "featured" systems that have easy access to the portals within the anomaly.

WHAT THE BASE INCLUDES:

A parking lot for 4 Individuals, one extra landing post on top of the rooftop.

Entry ways directly with teleporters leading to different areas within the base.

A byte beat system with a on/off switch in the middle of the colosseum to suit your needs.

A portal entryway that leads to a seating area, influenced by squid games a bit, to create a roleplaying aspect to the environment.

Multi Health Machine distributors within base intervals; specially to aid you on quick recoveries if needed.

A seperate personal base entry that will be open on certian times, providing random donations/gifts left within refiners, where players can interact and loot for their spoils.

FIRST FLOOR:

Complete symmetrical layouts, four certian designed rooms with cover/openings, 2 corner roundabouts, with two flanking pathways that meet on each side providing high value chases/Juking. A tight knit close quarters battle, specifically designed for 1st Person fights, although can be executed in third person, experience will vary.

THE COLOSSEUM (SECOND FLOOR)

A large battlefield filled with random plants and monuments, space for airborne combat via exosuit, and a base with health machines at your service. With quick exit points simply from leaving any side. Open space with free reign on whatever destruction you want to cause.

HOW TO GET THERE

The easiest way to access this base, is to simply go to the space anomaly, head over to the portal, hover over the "featured" tab, then simply click...

Worlds on Series S [Question]

Just last week I picked up NMS again. I was thrilled about the Worlds P1+2 Update. I started my old save file and noticed that my planet hasn't changed at all (or at least in very minor ways). No new foliage or nicer water/clouds. Do I need to visit a new system to experience the update or is it due to the lack of performance on the Series S I'm playing on? Thanks for your help

I tried VR last night and was simultaneously over- and under- whelmed. [Discussion]

I normally play at 4k resolution a 31" HDR monitor. The pic and views are stunning. I decided to give VR a try using an Oculus Quest 3. Once I got that working, I walked around my freighter and then took a ship out for a spin. Here are my initial impressions.

Moving around via teleport is cumbersome and unnatural. You can get a teleporter to work if you aim just right. I was unable to test movement alternatives, because I made the mistake of flying off in my ship first (read on).

Quest 3 (512GB) does not have sufficient resolution to provide real immersion. There is an overall lack of crispness to the graphics. It is still (even more so) a game, not an experience.

The space graphics suck and seem to be tailored for low res VR. Stars are few, large, and have huge halos, Planets are muted, most likely because of the low res and lack of a dark black using the Quest 3. I did enjoy being able to look around inside the cockpit.

The stock set up allows you to fly straight and roll. No way to change course and fly TO somewhere. What controls you do have are overly sensitive. Expect to spend a lot of time tweaking sensitivities just to prevent perpetual tumbling (after I switched the one control I had from roll to yaw). All of the subsequent control setup has to be done in SteamVR bindings. I had to either quit the game or decide to live in my ship. I chose reality.

I definitely need to get my hand controller set up, I don't like the Quest controllers, and will not like "grabbing" the in-game flight controls with hand tracking.

Never able to get NMS working again in SteamVR after the first session. The Meta/SteamVR software is a kluge, not plug and play. They like to blame the other guy for not working. I certainly don't want to restart my computer just to switch in-to/out-of VR. Once you start SteamVR, the is apparently no way...

Apparently I accidentally broke the game 4 hours in [Information]

So I’m super new to No Man’s Sky — like only 10 hours in.

I spawned on a toxic planet, barely survived, then on that same planet or system found a s class scanner module. Thought nothing of it.

Fast forward: I’m now getting 10,000% scan bonuses on creatures, plants, and minerals. I’ve been getting like 100k for rare creatures and 10k+ for rocks. I thought this was just normal income early on lol.

Then on another planet, a random NPC landed next to me and offered me a black market hyperdrive with +300 LY range. I bought it thinking, ā€œoh cool.ā€

Now I’m still in my starter ship, in my second system, with 4+ million units… and apparently I accidentally got some of the best possible scanner and hyperdrive rolls in the game?

Did I just win the RNG lottery or is this common ?

Do all these protection modules make a difference or am I just wasting slots? [Question]

I have 15 total protection modules installed. Most of these need to be activated. I've noticed that whenever I am on lets say a radioactive planet, only one of these activated protection modules gets depleted at a time. So, question is, does it benefit my character in any way to have multiple protection modules or should i get rid of the extras (tell me which ones specifically plis)?

"Expedite Live Repairs" [Question]

When would you NOT choose "expedite live repairs"?

I mean, it looks like a permanent industry upgrade for fixed cost, (negligible), vs a permanent industry downgrade. Wouldn't you always choose the upgrade if you had pocket change?

Or is there something unstated that balances this out?

About space station teleporters [Question]

I always thought that, when it comes to space station teleporters, in order to have one in the network available to you, landing on the station was required. But while I was completing the Atlas Path for my new save, I missed one but when I got to the next station (thinking I was going to have to warp back), it was there in the list.

And I know it shouldn't be a big deal, but I like fully exploring every system where I get first contact, so I always go back to them when I'm done with the main tutorial missions.

So is this a change I missed, or have I just been wrong for the past few years?

Have they ever talked about changing planets to have different biomes/climates etc? [Discussion]

I’m new to this game. Absolutely love it. Looking at the patch history.. holy shit! That is u heard of in today’s gaming industry.

.. but alas.. here I am complaining. My no. 1 request would be more variation on a single planet. Even if it’s just some color variation at the least. But different terrain, structures etc would be cool. Maybe polar vs equator?

There is not really much reason to explore different parts of the planet now. Or am I missing something?

Noob Question [Question]

Hello Fellow Travelers. Absolutely Love this game! Made my first base April 19, 2025. Pushing 400 hours in, so I'm a noob still.

I play on Xbox. I see some of you play on other devices.

When I use glyphs from some players they only get me the "you've inserted the wrong glyph here's a random spot" error message.

My question is :

Is glyphs device dependent?

How different is NMS on Switch compared to the PC version? [Question]

I own NMS on Switch and I’ve put in over 150 hours. Great game with great content, but honestly, it feels like the content is much more limited compared to the PC version.

I check this subreddit regularly and can’t believe how diverse and rich your planets look.
Meanwhile, I think I’ve only seen maybe 20 different biomes in total during my entire playthrough. They all start to look the same, which makes the game feel repetitive after so many hours.

So, is the Switch version really that different from the PC one?

I Need Opinions Regarding Squid Starship [Question]

I like collecting ships and now the time has come for me to hunt an Exotic Squid. I prefer to find this ship by myself first (not via coordinate given by other players). Nothing wrong using coordinates right away, this is just my preference to play my first save file. However, my patience to get it this way is getting thin šŸ˜‚.

I am now at 190 hours of playing this game and none of this elusive squid ship found landed/ flying in space.

Am I too ambitious to find squid ship by myself? Are there players here succeeded with similar objective? Can you share rough estimation of playing hours before you find your first squid.

A Class ā€œRoyalā€ Multitool with only 1 Supercharged Slot? [Question]

Encountered a strange bug with Living Ship upgrades, I’m annoyed. [Bug]

A few months ago I decided to start upgrading my Organic Ship. I went out and found my Organic Freighter and started sending it out… a lot and it was bringing back the little things that turn into organic ship upgrades.

The last time it brought me one I did what I was supposed to do to make it an upgrade and then it just disappeared. I checked all of my inventory and storage and it was just gone. I said Oh Well and kept on sending out my organic freighter on missions. This was 2 months ago. Since then I have not received any of those things. I did see one come through as a reward for an expedition but it never showed up in my inventory.

What’s weird is awhile back there were a few times when I was selling things at a trade terminal and it showed I could sell things that were not showing in my inventory. I dunno, maybe the bug is just with the inventory, Dunno.

WIP - planetary point of interest tool [Fan Work]

https://preview.redd.it/7uk0ifvrrhbf1.png?width=2874&format=png&auto=webp&s=c772c6fd5c53a58b807cda4a6ec84d267d8056bd

After alot of false starts, I finally made a breakthrough in building this tool - a planetary map that shows all your saved points of interest in relation to each other with whatever notes you want and a 360 photo of your location(s). This is just the basic setup with three.js and aframe, just one marker that can be clicked and shows a popup of the 360 photo that you can look around (yeah yeah the photo doesn't match the planet biome, it's just a test)

https://preview.redd.it/t639p5ykshbf1.jpg?width=1532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9cc83b5bc88548681def1b5a5bd930a73f7df3e5

The tricky part was converting the Lat/Lon planet coordinates from the game to the correct point on the three.js mesh so the markers show up properly. Now I have to capture some screenshots of my planet for the main planet texture, and also figure out how to make 360 photos from screenshots, but I don't think either will be a dealbreaker.

It's been a fun project so far, I'm learning three.js, Aframe, some basic shaders, and getting to leverage my existing web development skills to turn it into something folks can use. Let me know what you think!

"THE ATLAS GAUNTLET" - A new PVP map/ Colesseum, with direct access via the Space Anomaly [Screenshot]

A PvP base I recently built, with easy access through the space anomaly for others.

THE ATLAS GAUNTLET A double packaged base with a close quarters/encounters map (specifically designed for 1st person engagement), on top adding another large addition of a stadium for heavy jetpack dogfights or in general Armageddon.

WHAT THE BASE INCLUDES

A parking lot for 4 Individuals, one extra landing post on top of the rooftop.

Entry ways directly with teleporters leading to different areas within the base.

A byte beat system with a on/off switch in the middle of the colosseum to suit your tunes.

A portal entry way that leads to a audience balcony, protected and secured by glass, to make sure no neutron cannon accidently gives you a haircut.

Multi health distributing machines within bases, specially to aid you on quick recoveries if needed.

A seperate personal base entry (hidden) that will be open at certian times, providing random donations/gifts left within refiners, where players can interact and loot for their spoils, while also seeing the vantage point in the arena.

FIRST FLOOR Complete symmetrical layouts, four certian designed rooms with cover/openings, 2 corner roundabouts, with two flanking pathways that meet on each side providing high value chases/Juking. A tight knit close quarters battle, specifically designed for first person POV fights, although can be executed in third person, experience will vary.

THE COLOSSEUM A large battlefield filled with random plants and monuments, caged space for airborne combat via exosuit, and a spawn shelter with health machines at your service. Easy access exits, and an audience space on the sides, shielded from the destruction with some glass.

Not sure what I should be looking to do! [Question]

Hi everyone,

I started playing nms just a month or two ago, im 20 hours. I love the planets, the unique way it approaches alien life, researching stuff, etc. There really is too many things that I like about this game for me to list here. However, I’m sort of getting burnt out, I’m not really sure what I’m working towards. Will I ever know all the words in a language? What’s the point in a base if im going to be moving to another galaxy exploring? I have numerous questions like these. I would love to be kinda nudged in the right direction and given a booster shot in the arm! I’m not sure what some goals are as this game is massive and open ended.

I hope this post doesn’t come off in a negative way! I truly do like this game!

Does this game have any goal at all? [Question]

Hi guys, I'm considering buying NMS since it's on sale and I'm craving for sci-fi, but first I have to know if it has a main goal, or something like an endgame.

I do like the idea of freedom of a sandbox, but if the game doesn't set me a goal (like killing the Ender Dragon in minecraft, or passing Granpa's evaluation in Stardew Valley) I will get bored and quit playing.

My first gift giving [Discussion]

I finally gave my first gifts at the Anomaly last night.

I'm not a huge fan of massively high value gifts, as it feels like it can take some of the fun out of the early stage game, and short circuits the learning curve. Obviously nobody has to use anything they are given, but the temptation is there. I got gifted half a billion in AI Valves in my first week, but opted not to use them ... which was a tough decision when I had less than a mill in the bank. But glad I didn't.

However, the gift someone gave me in that first week (unasked, I was just talking to Nada) that really felt good was a stack of 20 Warp Hypercores. Not extravagant enough to make a huge difference, but really helped take some of the grind out of early exploration. Let me focus on just ... traveling. Warping from system to system, seeing everything the game has to offer, without having to worry where my next Warp Core was coming from.

A few days ago I found a planet where Storm Crystals are absurdly abundant. They always spawn in groups for 4 or 5, rarely more than 200u apart, easy terrain to move around in. So I spent half an hour collecting about 100 of them, and made up 5 stacks of 20 hypercores. Then lurked in the Anomaly, feeling like some kind of stalker, watching for new players rocking up in their Radiant Pillars. Followed them up to the blueprint room or Nada / Polo, and dropped a stack on them.

Felt good, paying it forward. I hope it helps them have as much fun in the early game as I did.

And thank you to whoever my anonymous benefactor was.

War Diplo (Euclid) [Screenshot]

War Diplo (Euclid) A ancient ProtoGek species called the Airavata lived peacefully on planet Vigtonr II but one day a meteorite crashed into their planet which had a fossilized egg encased in it. The atmosphere of their planet caused the egg to become active and it hatched into a giant bipedal feline. Once hatched the feline, which the Airavatians named Kurutakasa, started terrorizing and devouring them. The Airavatians needed to find a way to eliminate Kurutakasa. Airavatian witch doctor Gatuma made a potion in which he fed to a Diplo that was a native fauna to the planet. This potion enabled him to control the Diplo thru telepathic methods. The Airavatians built a large castle on the back of the diplo and used it in effort to defeat Kurutakasa. A epic battle occurred which saw the Diplo and Airavatians defeat and slay Kurutakasa and they lived in peace ever after.

Could a mini gaming PC run NMS better than my Xbox One? [Question]

Currently running nms on my Xbox One and it’s been a really great experience. Rare bugs, issues and crashes but that sounds like it’s par for the course on this game regardless.

Been considering upgrading regardless so that I can play some upcoming games and even access the Steam store (also wanted to play cyberpunk since release but the Xbox One just doesn’t seem capable).

Playing nms has prompted this even harder because the big thing that lacks on Xbox One is the graphics. I can’t see very far at all and the textures clearly aren’t at the levels of what I see people achieving here.

Would a mini PC from Amazon achieve a higher resolution / play experience? Do you guys think that this could be a viable option for nms and games like cyberpunk?

Mock Update Idea: Wasteland Update [Discussion]

Over the last few weeks I’ve been playing a large amount of No Man’s Sky and other survival exploration games and it got me brainstorming an update that would make me happy. In the spirit of inspiring Hello Games, here is a mock change log.

No Man’s Sky: Wasteland Update

New Additions:

————————————————————-

Planetary dangers:

*Fauna Attacks- Fauna now fit into one of two categories- Docile or hostile. Furthermore hostile fauna will be assigned one of three attack patterns- bite, ram, and ranged.

*Additional Fauna Typing- Hostile fauna will now have an assigned element added to their attacks. For example, ranged creatures will spit fireballs on volcanic planets that will drain heat hazard shields and biting creatures on a frozen planet will inflict cold damage that weakens cold hazard shields.

*Fauna Samples and Trader- Similar to creature meat, fauna samples will be dropped after a creature is defeated. Fauna samples can be traded to a new sample trader in space stations.

*Themed Planet Hazards- Planets will now have hazards related to their environment. For example, volcanic planets will have volcanic vents and fire that can damage shields while biohazard planets will have flora that attack with spores.

Exploration:

A number of new features will be added to increase exploration fun. This includes-

*Rewards for scanning- including new customization options, base building items, and upgrades.

*Waypoint markers- A buildable item used to mark locations you may find including the ability to mark settlements, outposts, abandoned buildings, and so on. Originally only 20 markers per system will be available but can be increased by scan rewards.

*New explorer themed customization options- A collection of new customization options will be available through scan rewards including the new space...

Sentinels in my base [Question]

I have a base on a Dissonant planet with corrupted sentinels wandering around. Mostly they mind their own business, but often I warp there only to find one has taken up residence in my base! They won't leave unless I delete a wall and wait for it to find its way out.

I assume this is a glitch, but if there's a way to prevent this I'd love to know about it. That said, I'm not mining inside my base so am unlikely to trigger them, so ... I guess they're pets now? What should I name them?

Has anyone found the end of the sound trail after destroying this? [Screenshot]

After shooting this i just barely notice some text popping up saying something about sound, after scanning with ship there's some sort of sound trail to follow, I was trying to follow it but got distracted by pirates then completely lost it, i dont actually have a picture of the image it shows after scanning ,I was actually taking the above for my own collection but after noticing this extra bit I had no other way of explaining it with the above.

First Base [Screenshot]

This is my first real base! Haven’t really built much then I was blowing up freighters in this system for modules. Turns out I like being an outlaw…

I needed a low key base if I’m gonna be an outlaw.

Welcome to the Freighter Scalping Outpost. Got tons of goodies little trade room, open area for using computers, getting a spring and enjoying the view.

What do you guys think?

A little dark on the screenshots, quality isn’t perfect either. I gotta find a better way for screenshots.

Would the portal gun be a good implementation? [Question]

With so many incredible locations, teleportation can be used to return to points, as long as they are yours. A method, difficult to unlock and very expensive, that would allow the multi-tool to teleport (apart from normal portals) to points that we save. Maybe a limited number of locations, or cost per trip.

No construction terminal [Question]

Hi everyone,

I've read the previous posts on the issue regarding missing construction terminals in settlements. Apologies if I keep beating on a dead horse, but hoping to get more ideas on how to address this. I don't want to abandon the settlement since I've already achieved cash flow positive status hehe.

At the moment, I've also opted into the experimental patch just recently released which is supposed to fix bugs in settlements. Unfortunately, it remains the same.

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Highest Damage(?) Fighter (Natural S) [Screenshot]

This thread only concerns naturally occuring, purchased, found, or fabricated Fighters. I know that amazing modded, hybrid, and save edited ships exist, but this thread isn't about those special cases. This is about finding the highest damage possible in the vanilla version of NMS, without edits, mods, reskinning, or hybrid builds.

Here is one of the best Naturally occuring fighters that I have found and perhaps one of the best in the game(?):

the Izawata Pathfinder VIII

Is a found, S-Class fighter with 396.7 damage potential. Has anyone found better?! I don't know. Please let me know.

Upgraded with found, not save edited, X Class Infra-Knife upgrades, it yields:

89,594 DPS vs. Challenging and 103,033 with power diverted to weapons

135,749 DPS vs. Standard and 156,111 with power diverted to weapons

339,372 DPS vs. Weak and 390,277 with power diverted to weapons

I'm interested to see better ships of the same class, whether found of fabricated.

The original finder/poster of Izawata Pathfinder VIII upgraded this ship to S Class, sporting 396.3 Damage Potential.

With a bit of persistence I discovered the Natural S Class in the system with a very slight increase to damage potential of 0.4... 393.7 and a slight reduction in shield strength and maneuverability.

I would love to know of better fighters or any information about incrementally higher X Class upgrades.

Those X upgrades that I am using or those similar to them have been referred to in the threads as 'God-tier' in that they are unlikely to be found casually and in my case required crazy amounts of grinding, but what I know is that in spite of looking like other 'top' X upgrades for Infra-Knife: + 13% Heat Dispersion, +6% Damage, and +15% Fire Rate, these outperform - on Supercharged Slots they are +42%, +8%, & +44% respectively, but others that present these same supercharged...

Sharing base portal network? [Discussion]

i dont think this is a thing but im just asking cause i think its a good idea.

i know you can share portal glyphs! im talking about portals you can build at your planetary base, the one you have in your settlement or on your freighter.

we as players can see our own network of portals in the "your bases" tab (or it might say something else im not sure) but random people cant see my bases, they see theirs. (obviously)

now currently, all bases that im building are like Orbital Drop Pods and they all contain portals.

obviously i dont put these drop pods in any random spot. i find interesting places, builds, or good farming spots. Im also planning on putting a drop pod at every galaxy portal, already have one in Euclid, eissentam and nepitzaspru.

so it would be cool if we could make dedicated portal networks, so link certain portals together, and if someone interacts with that portal, they can go to other linked portals and visit my different drop pods.

or any other creations that YOU've made.

yay or ney?

however, i could see how people with ill intentions could use this. but theres gotta be a work around.

[Galaxy 256] Hidden Paradise Giant — Green grass, lakes, blue skies, and a Blue/Silver V-Wing [Screenshot]

Apparently, the post isn't good enough for the mods on NMSCE, so I'll post here --

I don’t usually share my finds — I’m more of a GTFOML type — but after two weeks of searching, I just stumbled across this Paradise Giant completely at random while grabbing a new galaxy waypoint. I’d found two others in 256 before, but they were in boring, unpopulated systems. This one’s different.

The only reason I’m sharing it is because I’m completely out of base building parts — Mountain House is my last base. Stop by, sit back while you process some nanites, and enjoy the view. Not my best work, but it’s all I could pull off with around 350 parts.

So I’m putting this one out there in case anyone wants to take up developing it. 99% of you will probably need to grab a PGSC taxi to get there, but it might be worth the ride. It ticks all the boxes (if you like Pirate systems): abundant resources, lively fauna and flora, green grass, blue skies (with just a hint of greenish haze), and plenty of lakes. There’s even a nice blue-and-silver V-Wing I’ve seen three times already.

Galaxy Travel: [Question]

Hello all! A little over 500 hrs in game so far and really enjoy it as well as the community but would really like some feedback from others on on why the game developers felt it necessary to make travel between galaxy's such a hassel. This has been a very big issue for me personally and I am trying to understand the thinking behind making this such a disappointment ( at least to me ) by tying damaging of all your gear, weapon, and ship into a storyline that basically forces you accept the option to reset in order to take full advantage of all the game has to offer. I have been playing MMO style games for over 20 yrs. and this is the first time I have ever experienced this. Am I just reading too much into this or does it bother anyone else that if you make the seemingly unpopular choice at the end of the Artemis questline you are summarily punished for it. Thank you all! Frustrated.

I'm here today humbly asking for freighter help [Question]

Dear users of the No Man's Sky subreddit I'm here today humbly asking for advice and tips in order to find freighter upgrade modules which has made me lose my previously intact sanity

My Ships can reach the center in one jump, my settlements make me so much money I'm building houses from quicksilver, my frigates bully any missions assigned, my suit can do everything from refining God to withstand a sentinel monologs about why they are actually the good guys, my Minotaur actually mines with me AND YET IN ALL THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN USING A SHT C CLASS FREIGHTER THAT CANT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE I HAVE NO UPGRADES OR HAVE FOUND NO MODULES PLEASE SEND HELP

OK joke aside any advice would be appreciated, I have been playing around the same system and his surroundings as I don't want to leave the freighter and just go away, I'm aware that attacking other fleets and the cargo is a good way and I have found some with the modules but I would prefer not to do that as I also have a good standing with all the factions and every emergency signal has carried me so far to another ship not a crashed freighter, any comment is appreciated I advance šŸ™‡ā€ā™‚ļø

Wait… aren’t walking rocks meant to be rare?? [Discussion]

I’m brand new to NMS (like ~17 hours in), and I’ve already seen 5 walking rock creatures just casually vibing across a couple planets.

At first I thought ā€œoh, guess these are just part of the gameā€ — but now I’m hearing these things are ultra-rare?? Like 500-hours-and-still-haven’t-seen-one rare? (A friend of mine)

So, how does abandoned mode work? [Question]

I love NMS - but I personally prefer the moments when there's nothing else around me but me, the planet, and whatever resources I have at my disposal. I'm considering restarting in abandoned mode, just to get that true feel of space loneliness. However, a few questions before I do this:

  • The Autophage, and missions. How does it handle these? I assume you can't do the missions, but can you get everything you can earn from the missions in the gameplay? Such as the key one here: The Atlantid drive. Got it in my current run, but it required completing story missions. The game wouldn't exactly be very abandoned if story characters were still around.
  • Does it remove even fauna? If so, I'm down for this because it can really look ugly at times, and I prefer just exploring the planets anyways.
  • Finding starships/freighters I presume is made a lot harder, which I understand. Are there any tips you may recommend a new abandoned mode player to help them more efficiently find these items?
    What are some other drawbacks/side-effects that I might be missing here that come from abandoned mode?

Starbirth mission start [Question]

Hello, I“m a recent player with less than 700 hours in.

Last week when the update dropped I entered the game to discover 3 living ship“s eggs in my inventory, starbirth iniciated, a mission to get a living frigate on and a salvaged frigate transmission started.

I did all that again, received a third living ship, but now I have 3 starbirth eggs and I cant start the mission to spawn them.

Tryied to craft a dream aerial, hang with my solar travelling in deep space and looking for planets that fitted the transmission.

2 of the eggs that i have mention planets, the third one has the portal coordinates as if it was ready for spawn... I really don“t know what to do. Any thougths?

I was on my base in Odyalutai when I looged in to discover all this. Tryied also to return there, but nothing happened.

PS5 / PS5 Pro Players: Fix to blank, black textures on 5.73 [Bug]

Fix: Reboot PS5 / PS5 Pro into safe mode (power off ps5. power on and hold power button until 2 beeps or 1 beep if beeps turned off), go to Clear System Cache.

Texture issue should be resolved! I have a ticket in with HG on this since i've had this happen a few times previously and would uninstall game, reboot ps5 and reinstall nms and it would fix it. this saves the uninstalling game/reinstalling.

Feeling discouraged [Question]

I’m playing this game on switch and I can’t help but think I’m doing something wrong.

First of all , everyone must be playing on PC here cause the screenshots are so beautiful in comparison to what I see. I mean, the newest Switch update is nice but maybe I don’t get all the features?

Second, I’m working on having access to my freighter storage at all times via a matter beam. Apparently salvaged frigate modules come from nexus missions. The first nexus mission I picked had me build a base and asked for a cultivation room which I don’t have the blue print for! So I went back and rage quit it. The second one I picked had me rescue a life form and I encountered corrupted sentinels which kept healing each other as my gun wasn’t strong enough! Rage quit that one too Now I’m doing the third plant killing nexus mission but none have offered a salvaged frigate module!!

I’m constantly out of storage space I can’t afford a new gun or ship

I want to play more but I can’t get out of this rut! Maybe I’m getting the order wrong on getting this done.

What am I supposed to do first?!

No Mans Sky VR Help [Question]

I just got a quest 3 and fired up NMS. First of all, it's amazing, totally different game, the scale of everything is crazy.

My issue is flying, it's so hard to do with the motion controls. Often it places me either too high or too far forward in the cockpit, so I have to kind of put my hands through my legs (I play sitting) to grab the controls.

No mans sky space ship weapons [Suggestion]

There is only one weapon you truly need in a space shit on this game, if you don't believe me, go test it for yourself.

Max out your shields and manoeuvrability, and only focus on this weapon and getting it maxed out. Weapon is called the Positron Ejector.

Close range, no ship can withstand this beast of a weapon. Basically it's a shotgun in space. So long as your shields don't break and you can manoeuvre quickly, you will defeat EVERY ship that comes your way.

I only use technically 1 weapon for all my ships, besides the standard photon cannon that cannot be uninstalled.

I see a lot of people using all the other types of star ship weapons, which is fine, but you only need one.

That way you will save a lot of space in your technology slots and you can use the slots for other things like your hyperdrive launch thrusters Shields engines scanner and you only have one weapon.

Trying to fight a dreadnought, use Positron Ejector.

Trying to fight the sentinels in space, use Positron Ejector.

You landed on a planet and need to kill a. Sentinel walker, well jump in your ship and blast them from low orbit with Positron Ejector

money glitch [Bug]

hello to everyone who is reading this. recently I discovered a glitch which many of you probably already know, but this post is for those who don’t. you can make up to 12,5 mil money per minute and I can tell how. first, you need to go to criminal’s station, then take a task from a bounty hunter. the task is ā€œdeliver illegal cargo ā€œ. you need to choose the one which has ā€œfirst spawn relicsā€ as a cargo. you take this task and wait until illegal cargo appears in your inventory, then you just go to ā€œlogā€ and abandon the mission. now you have 10x ā€œfirst spawn relicsā€ which worth about 250k each (2,5 mil for 10x) and you can still repeat the mission infinite times. each cycle takes around 12-15 seconds to do so after just 1 minute you would have around 10-12,5 mil money. hope this helps. enjoy!

to get 300 mil it took me around 30-40 minutes

Settlement biome blacklisted or bugged out? Or settlement charts bugged out? [Question]

Tl;dr Are Ruined Structure biomes blacklisted from having settlements like Dead biomes? Or are settlement charts bugged out on spawning settlements?

I've been looking for a paradise planet with a Ruined Structures biome. (The biome with pillars that drop polished stone when mined) I found one, and wanted to place a settlement on it with a settlement chart. Wasn't the primary planet in the system, but I didn't think it mattered. No matter how many times I save resetted for a different settlement location; it never wanted to place on the planet. So I traveled to some other Ruined biome planets, and tried a settlement chart on them to no avail. The planets I tried it on were very mountainous or ocean-like, so I don't know if those terrain types are harder on the game to spawn settlements on.

I didn't see any documentation on this anywhere online. So I wondered if anyone else happened upon it. Wanted to ask, in case I did more searching in vain.

Is there any feasible way to transfer stored technology between saves/players? [Question]

I know this question has been asked similarly on this sub before in the past but I was hoping to compile my own research on the subject here and see if anyone knows something that I don’t yet.

There are several amazing x-class modules as well as the singularity engine on alternative saves that I would love to be able to transfer onto my main legacy save. However, despite testing several methods, this seems to be impossible unless I utilize a save editor.

Despite Hello Games explicitly stating that transferring stored technology between players would be a feature, it is in fact the only type of item in the game that can not be traditionally gifted between players.

All tech was banned from being placed within refiners, including stored technology, and we are still unable to access other players refiners regardless, so this also doesn’t work.

Trading ships between players via selling your ship to an NPC in a space station and a friend repurchasing said ship back from the NPC is finicky and usually only works with certain types of ships, even still the inventory of said ship is reset upon transfer so storing technology within ship inventories during ship trading is also not viable.

I’ve listed what I have attempted unsuccessfully but maybe someone can comment if they’ve found a method that worked for them. Or if anyone can speak to the validity of a certain save editor I may resort to purchasing the game on steam and using cross save to finally access my lost tech.

Purple paradise... sort of [Discussion]

Can a paradise planet have storms that are harmful? Bilious means "of, relating to, or containing bile" btw, can't imagine they would be pleasant storms; though I waited a long time and didn't see one yet so Idk. Is it always harmful if it contains the word storm?

Then there's the creature that is "excited by violence" and eats "liquidized organs" that attacked me. Not quite paradise in my book.

Finding humility and respect in permadeath [Discussion]

After 2 failed attempts to survive long enough to repair the ship and 1 where I made it to another planet only to die from ā€œnearby toxinsā€ in a cave where I was escaping a toxic environment, I have found how truly significant an achievement it is to reach the galactic core. I have over 220 hours on a normal save and so I thought I’d challenge myself. I realize I have rich interloper habits. I’m learning to conserve and ration, think more strategically about which resources are most important to bank. Also, there’s a certain amount of luck involved with what planet you start on. I’d love to hear from you about your experiences in permadeth. Whether you’ve made it to the core and beyond or have gotten the mordite slapped outta you like I have.

Is there an etiquette to giving away stuff at the Anomaly? [Question]

Getting bored with the repetitiveness of the game. I think I’m pretty much done. 3B units and tons of stuff I’ll never do anything with. Early in the game, I was given items worth millions and it was really cool but I don’t want to randomly give stuff to players that may want to progress on their own.

Bastion, the last stop at the Galaxy edge, need fuel, food and a warm place to stay. [Screenshot]

Suspended within a crater on a frozen moon in the outskirts of Euclid lies Bastion your last port of call. The base containing three floors has all the comfort one needs for a journey across the stars. A merchant district, forge and smelter for all your scrap junk, lots to look at with plants and items from across the stars. A cafe 42 to feed your hunger and a loft apartment to rest your head. A radio broadcast room that sends signals across the stars via a gigantic radio tower held in place through the counter balance of the station below the 4 starship landing pads.

Starship shield calculations [Question]

Ok, so how does this work? I have a base shield stat of 205 on my nice new gold hotrod fighter. I've just added 2x 37% and 1x 38% X modules and the 7% C tech, also I put the deflector shield on a supercharged slot and my shield is only 330! What kind dark arts is this? It's like .y shield modules are giving me +38 shield, not +38% shield šŸ¤” Anyone experienced this before? Is there a fix?

Anyone had an issues with things disappearing from the refiners on their Freighter [Question]

I spend a bunch of time harvesting Runaway Mold from the curious deposit things. When back to my ship, filled all 6 refiners with 9.999 Runaway Mold each. Then I got back in my Interceptor, had to run to a couple different systems, left my Freighter where it was. Did what I had to do, came back and all of my refiners were empty.

I tested a few other items and nothing happened to them, it appears to be only Runaway Mold and Nantes that disappear.

This is the first platinum trophy I've gotten where I had time to walk around and just look at stuff while waiting for time to pass. I thought it would be annoying but I loved everything about it, I just looked north and walked. I traversed caves and fell off cliffs. I wish I gave this game a chance sooner and I don't plan on stopping just because I 100% the base trophy list. ONWARDS TO MORE ADVENTURE

Show us your favorite drip! (Showing my 3 saved customization modifications) [Screenshot]

One thing I really love about No Man's Sky is that no matter what time it is within the anomaly, there's always either some really cool dripped out alien, autophage construct, or just a mix of all sorts always chillin about. Regardless to say, the fashion game in NMS is hilarious and dope at the same time.

My misadventure last night [Fan Work]

I used to play this years ago. I just bought it again a couple of days ago.

I was flying in space and shooting my photon blasters at rocks to get some fuel. I came across an NPC ship that was also doing some mining and shot him. He grew hostile (understandably) and fired back. I blew up that ship and earned Sentinel's ire. I blew up 4 of them and decided to hide out on a planet.

I landed, exited the ship, and had 5 Sentinels after me. I ran into a structure (I was doing the starting missions still) and waited. My wanted level didn't go down nor did the Sentinels stop looking for me. Weird. That used to work. So I spoke with the hologram inside which was apparently me, and ran off to find the marker that had appeared- still dodging laser blasts.

I landed on my next planet and only had two Sentinels chasing me as I came to the next structure. This led me to a new ship. I saw that it was a class A and grabbed it even though it was completely destroyed.

The planet was very cold and I was still being hunted, but I figured this was No Man's Sky and I had willingly traded in my ship for a wreck. Now I have to live with my choices. I set about making repairs.

The ship was also on fire and leaking radiation. A fact I learned when I tried to board it and began taking a lot of damage! So no shelter from the Sentinels! I found a nearby cave and dropped a refinery. I may have succeeded in repairs if I hadnt grown tired of dodging laser blasts. I blew up both Sentinels and was rewarded with NINE MORE!

At this point, with the cold climate, massive health loss, constant life support draining do to me running and dodging, and my new friends, I was fighting a losing battle. Shortly before losing all of my health, I turned off the game and left.

I came back after twenty minutes and the wanted level was gone. I got my ship space worth and left the planet. I've now repaired all of...

Captain’s Log – Aeris Stranded Crew Outpost, Euclid Galaxy [Screenshot]

Date: Cycle 91 – Month 3, Post-Crash Location: [REDACTED SYSTEM] – Planet Tetha-3 (Unofficial Designation) Crew Status: 3 Survivors out of 80 Mission Priority: Survival & Signal Transmission.

ā€œIf anyone finds this, know that we fought to stay alive. We weren’t ready for this but we adapted.ā€

Three months ago, our freighter Aeris suffered a catastrophic failure while in transit through an uncharted system. Engines lost thrust. Emergency grav controls collapsed. We were pulled down by the atmosphere of an unlogged green-world. We crashed.

Only three of us survived.

The ship is embedded in the hillside now, smoking and half-buried. The rest of the crew didn’t make it. Their names are stored in the freighter’s blackbox, which we buried under a data spike in the grove behind the wreckage. If you recover it… please take them home.

Current Status:

We’ve managed to salvage enough emergency modules from the wreck to assemble a crude but livable outpost. Four structures, cobbled together with freighter housing, serve as medbay, research lab, sleeping quarters, and a small mess. We named it Aeris Outpost, in memory of the ship that brought us here.

One of our engineers, Juno, set up a signal booster array using remaining components. We’re broadcasting on rotating cycles using raw data bursts and galactic positioning pulses. We’ve also rigged an antenna tower to increase our range, but storms keep knocking it offline.

Research Log:

This planet is… different. The flora is pink, massive, and oddly reactive to touch. We’ve been collecting data and lifeform samples. There’s a mineral vein nearby that might help us produce antimatter if we can locate enough chromatic metal and condensed carbon.

We believe this planet once hosted some kind of Sentinel mining activity. There’s evidence of old tech...

NMS: Into the Void. A story line that brings together all the features added over the years [Fan Work]

NMS: into the void

When Atlas Rises update was released, back in late 2017 it introduced the first proper storyline into NMS, the Artemis questline. In a way, it kind of tied together all of the features of the game into one nice package.

Since then we have gotten countless updates and tons of new features added to the game. Combat, Sentinel pillars, pirates, pirate stations, purple systems, autophages, and all this weird lore about the Void Mother. But all these updates have lose ends, they are just things to DO with no real purpose.

I do think we will eventually get a Void Mother questline, and I would love to have it tie together all of the features that have been added into the game over the years.

Now what follows is just a VERY rough idea of what I would be thinking about, but just an example of how it could tie all the features together ... first things first; added to the update would be a few mission agents that you add to your base, similar to the farmer, scientists. One of them would be an Angler who sends you out fishing. Another feature would be space station building, and it would work similar to Settlements...

Ok onto my idea ... You start off with a fishing mission find a message in a bottle with coordinates -leads you to an ancient ruin where you dig up an autophage relic with distress signal bring it to your freighter to decipher the code it doesn't seem like much so you send out a frigate on an expedition to take a look later you recieve a call from your frigate that they're under attack warp to their system and find a derelict freighter on derelict freighter you find clues of a massive dark freighter (dreadnaught) warping in and attacking without warning reach the end room, and then the derelict freighter goes under attack again from the dreadnaught and alarm sounds and you have no...

Sentinel Pillar [Question]

I somehow got a sentinel pillar location. I think I lucked into it. Anywho, I’m not very good at combat yet, and I only have a B class multi-tool so far. A couple of questions: If I leave the planet to build up my weapon or armor, will the location still be available when I come back? Is there a way to change the difficulty temporarily to make the combat easier?

I don’t think this is part of the Nexus mission. I have read in this sub that there’s no way to disable those sentinels.

Only downside is that I can’t find any body of water anywhere which booooo. Oh well, it’s probably somewhere just super far away from where I’m at and I’m just super lazy LOL.

Crafting new ship bug [Bug]

So here i was super excited to make my first s class fighter. Got the pieces i wanted and i make my ship. Im happily swapping around upgrades from my ships and i notice my primary ship....my s class sail ship with my best upgrades was missing. I check the summoning menu.....nothing. i check my freighter.....nothing. i check cold storage and archives.....nothing. its not parked on the station either. So i reload the oldest save available to me out of the two slots side bar the save system in this game is abysmally trash for this exact scenario and reason and the devs should be ashamed of themselves for not considering this sort of thing when deciding what save system to implement and surprises surprises the now oldest save is right after i finished crashing my new fighter and look the ship is still missing. I play on ps5 so i dont really think there is any way to try finding older saves. Please someone tell me there is some way to get my ship back. 😭

What's YOUR typical game session look like? [Discussion]

Hey All. New-ish player here wondering what an average game session is from everyone.

Commune? [Question]

Hello, I've been playing the game for about 100 hours completely by myself, and feel like I'm missing the huge community aspect in NMS.

I'd like to find a rare robot settlement, create a localized hub around the outskirts of it. Each player that joins the commune would have their choice of which commodity (Energy, Gas, Minerals, Agriculture, Smuggling, Archeology, ect.)

There's no real end goal for this project either, I just think this would be a fun thing to do as well as make some new friends in the process. If you're interested, send me a DM, I'm working on a discord server for members of the commune.

Treehouse build teaser [Video]

Just a few minutes of a treehouse build I’m working on. I’d say it’s at about 50% finished. It’s roughly 6000 pieces as of now.

I imagine it will go over 10000 pieces. Not sure how the builders who build massive builds do it. I’m usually burnt out at the 4000 piece mark. This is no exception.

I post updates to my builds on my YouTube channel. The last update is missing the interior work. The next update will have all of that when I feel I’m far enough along.

You can probably just type iBuild85 into the YT search. You can also just go to my profile on here and see my past builds. I probably have a YT link there as well.

Oh, and the updates can sometimes be rough. I like to build. I do not like to record and upload videos. The updates are pretty much practice runs until my final upload for a build. Plus, the weather on this ā€œswamp moonā€ is pretty rough. Hard to record video when there’s a tornado every 10 seconds.

Thanks for viewing. Hopefully I’ll have a post when the build is complete in the next two weeks. Two weeks. Hopefully two weeks at the longest. This is taking forever.

Ship + Multi-tool hunting on Korvax Discordant planets. [Question]

I've been doing this thing where I go to a Korvax Discordant system (3 star economy) and use an echo locator. This is my farming technique -

  1. Drop to Camp

  2. Grab Sentinel Weapon

  3. Make Staff

  4. Fly to Sentinel Ship and grab brain

  5. Fly to Ruins

  6. Heal Brain

  7. Grab Atlantid Weapon

  8. Fly back and grab Sentinel Ship

So, Sentinel Weapon, Staff, Sentinel Ship, Atlantid Weapon in one Echo Locator. I feel like this is efficient. I'm hunting S class ships/multitools. So far I have yet to find one. I know I can upgrade, but I just got to 50k nanites and it just seems so expensive to upgrade from A to S. Is there a better way to do this? I'm a new player and don't quite understand the spawning. I've been going from system to system doing this. I still don't know how to farm alien or living items. I read that Pirate systems have a higher (2% vs 5%) chance of spawning S-tier. Is that true? Should I do multiple echo locators per system, or is one and move on the better approach?
