Need a buddy for No Man’s Sky [Question]

Hey everyone, I’m fairly new to the game and I’m clueless what to do, I’d appreciate it if someone could hop in the game with me and do some missions together or something. I’m in UK time zone btw.

what can you farm via mineral and gas survey [Question]

so im newly on a gas giant and i wonder if i can build a farm for quarzite and crystallized helium. but ive searched for hotspots and only found salt. is there a guideline or list or logic behind which mineral or gas you will find on a planet? is it the same for every planet, is it always the third list resource in the planet info, something like that..

i hope someone can help me sort out what i can farm and what not

Help wanted for finding a space station with a korvax with a specific helmet for recruiting to my Squadron. [Question]

to any1 who is willing & able to help... i want a korvax with this helmet with this halo... color & rank & any kind of stats or even ship, doesnt matter... but please keep in mind... i want to trade ships with them before recruiting them... so if the space station has multiple Pilots land with that helmet... then it will work otherwise the pilot will likely change model during the ship Trading.

Planetary Base Fleet Mod? [Question]

I was wondering if there is any mod out there that allows all your current ship to use the landing pads on your planetary bases?

I basically want to be able to go to any base I have that has landing pads and have all my ship be on them like how you see all your ship in the ship bays on your freighter.

Im going to take a wild guess... [Question]

And say that this grave is unobtainable? The base computers itself appears to be locked behind a box... (If anyone has any suggestions id really appreciate it 😅 ive seen that all you have to do is report the base computer in order to remove the base for you or maybe to go off multiplayer but 1. I cant reach the computer and 2. Shutting off multi-player doesn't seem to work for some reason)

Help with co-ordinates [Question]

So I'm trying to follow the guides to convert my signal booster co-ordinates into glyphs, but none of the online tools seem to work the way the guides describe. These are the raw co-ordinates I'm getting out of the booster: OTWA:0DB2:0082:03f1:005F

When I try and use the portal decoder, and input this string, it converts it into this shorter form: A0DB:2008:203F:1

But neither of these codes seem to produce glyphs when I punch them into the online decoder tools. What am I doing wrong?

How does the procedural generation works on the planet itself ? [Question]

I've never played the game, I admit the planets looks gorgeous from the space but how is it on it ? Is there any kind of diversity ? Forest alongside polar regions or maybe with a desert on the south of the planets ? Is there only a single type of biome per planet or are they more complex than that ? Maybe only hurricanes on the north and the south is more chill.

And on the screenshots I've seen, it always looks like the planets are some sort of flat rocks with a few vegetation here and there. Is there any dense vegetation ? Like a big forest that hid the sky, or some gigantic holes in montains ? I mean complex landscapes that pushes you to do some exploration on the planet itself ?

I just turned on MP for the first time. Is there etiquette for gifting? [Question]

It feels warmer not because I gifted things. It felt warmer because of the population. I’ve got PVP off. Didn’t really know you could tweak it like that.

I ABSOLUTELY KNOW GIFTING IS ANNOYING FOR SOME. If you receive something you do not want. Delete it or pay it forward. Simple

I have plenty of items to gift. It’s kind of a cheap shortcut but you play how you want right. It’s adding to my experience so it’s potentially win win.

Two newby questions [Question]

Firstly, I'm trying to build a base while keep the local mushrooms but if part of it touches them in anyway it deletes the mushrooms. Is this always going to happen and do they grow back?

Secondly. I bought a new multi tool and when I added my improved scanning device it shows an X which I think means it is not working? Is this correct and why would it show this? On my old multi tool it worked fine. I tried removing the actual scanner in case it was a problem with having two, although I am positive the second modifies the first. That didn't resolve it so I'm turning to Reddit for advice? I will upload an image if that will help.

Maybe not as lucky as an exotic but to get a random solar that's on theme for my character [Screenshot]

Literally shear luck

Saw it while running back to my ship and was gonna salvage it for its wings, but was conflicted cause I also loved the cockpit, then i saw it has purple sails and that was it, literally perfect and right after getting the perfect staff too

Probably won't replace my Rocinante sentinel ship, but it's definitely going in the collection

Found a ship... do I have a "garage"? [Question]

About 2 or three hours into my first ever run at this game, I used the visor to just peer about in case anything interesting was around - and found a distress signal. Headed over, and lo and behold a whole space ship with a dead pilot.

It's bigger than the starting one, looks much cooler, and is apparently filled with loot... but is there any way to keep both ships? Or at least sell one instead of abandoning it? 🤔

What multiplayer features would be fun? [Discussion]

Hey guys, I've seen a lot of "complaints" about the lack of multiplayer content (kinda, because deep down we all know this is a single player game with very superficial multiplayer features).

I was talking with a friend about what kind of features or mechanics would make this game have a better and more compelling multiplayer community, and we would like to listen to some of your ideas!

Lack of cool behaviour in creatures [Question]

I know the game has been out for a long time and it's honestly crazy that the devs are still dropping updates for free but one thing that always bugged me is how the fauna doesn't really feel alive, like they don't act like "real animals" I guess? I feel like the fauna's ai being so limited sometimes breaks the immersion. Anyone else under the same impression?

I would LOVE an actual ATLAS themed ship and/or freighter [Discussion]

I love the look of the ATLAS stuff and would love to be able to fly an ATLAS ship.

I know we have the Sentinel ships that are kind of ATLAS ships, but a much more ATLAS-y design could definitely be possible. It wouldn't even be a very complex/difficult model because of all the plain geometric shapes.

After a long while of searching ive randomly came across a S class freighter, however my own freighter (pictuted above) cannot come to the star system, i know if i leave to clear its inventory i will lose the ship since it will just dissapear, should i cut my losses and leave or bite the bullet and get the S class freighter?

Steam Deck Offline - what happens when I go back online? [Question]

Hello, I tried finding a definitive answer but couldn’t find one. TLDR at the end

I am fairly new to NMS but I often switch between my steam deck and PC. This works great because of cloud sync. However, I do have about 20 hours of flight coming up soon, so I’m wondering how well it will work if I have 10-20 hours of progress done offline, and then I reconnect to internet again. Will cloud sync upload all of my progress? I just want to make sure before I dedicate to the game during this flight.

TLDR : will 20 hours of offline progress upload through steam cloud sync from my steam deck, so it will be available on my PC as well?

Thanks in advance

Settlement System Star Rating [Question]

I have recently read that there may now be a general opinion that the star rating of settlement systems is not effected by the settlement successes and or advancement. What are people's personal experiences?

Here's mine:

My system went from 2 stars to 3 stars shortly after the Settlement Update.

This makes me wonder if the systems are rounded to 1, 2, and 3 stars initially, and the strengthening of the economy by the settlement is also fractional? - Not necessarily resulting in a full bump in star rating for some/most 🤔.

I had lamented choosing a 2 star economy for what became both my longest held and most successful settlement (and that it was Gek 🤣), and was thrilled to find it was bumped up to 3 stars after returning my Gek settlement to full potential after the Settlement update.

If this star rating change was not associated with the settlement, I can't explain how it happened.

One point of interest - I never sell my produced goods in the settlement system, because it has a deflationary effect on local prices. I keep those economies strong by dumping the product on other systems or simply destroying the goods to keep my idea about the supply/demand curve working in favor of my settlement/system.

Maybe I've got this wrong and the system star rating changed by some other mechanism or glitch, but the timing was perfect for it to be a feature of the update.

What are other Traveller's experiences?

Best early(ish) game multi-tool [Question]

I’m almost 100 hours in although I’ve done like none of the storyline stuff. I’ve just been flying around, building bases, looking for stuff and vibing really.

I have an A tiered rifle and finally got the nanites to make an S-tier. With some googling realised it may be a waste to spend 50,000 nanites on a rifle.

What is the best multi-tool I could feasibly get right now?

My dream one is a black Atlantid, but I know I can’t get that until I finish the main story quest line.

I have changed my mind about food in this game [Discussion]

I was one of those Travelers who thought food in NMS was a bit pointless. (I have not done a PD or extreme survival settings playthrough, though.) Resources could provide everything I needed to survive and I didn't want to waste time feeding animals unless the reward was worth it. So I thought food was just a tacked on feature, and that nutrient processors were just nice decorations for the galley in my freighter.

Then, another Traveler (see below) posted some recipe cards for items to be used with the nutrient ingestor and I figured I'd give it a try since I always explore planets and scan fauna, flora, and minerals anyway. I did receive a significant boost to my units, but I already had more than I could spend, so it didn't really hit me about just how useful it is.

But a few weeks ago I started a new save, and one of the first things I picked up from the Anomaly was the nutrient ingestor. Then I started making creature pellets as soon as I could to collect the food I needed for the recipe to get the fauna bonus. And I was blown away. Even with the Waveform Focuser and just a couple S class scanning upgrades, I was making 3 - 18 million units a scan (now up to 10 - 25, still with the WF). This save is absolutely the fastest I have ever made this many units (and yes that includes interceptor hunting, with the added bonus of not being stuck grinding on a single planet for hours).

So a huge thank you to u/Vita-Discipulus for providing me with the knowledge that has changed my mind. You are one of the Travelers that makes this community so great.

And for anyone else who wants to utilize the nutrient ingestor and doesn't already have the recipes:

If it helps you, be sure to leave your thanks.

Good luck and enjoy your journey, Travelers.

No Man's Sky The Harbor City of Prime IV (The Video) [Video]

There was a lot of interest in the screenshot of this city. I hit the limit so this is a full 3,000 part build, no to spare. I think you will really enjoy this video.

What specs should I have to run NMS in VR? [Question]

Hello!
I am extremely interested in running NMS in VR.... i just dont know if my system is strong enough for it, cuz I didn't build it with VR in mind
I have a quest two
and for my guts I have a 3060, Intel i7-9700k, 24gbs of RAM, and plenty of storage (I have it installed on my M.2)
I'm sure VR makes a game 10x more demanding, but I haven't researched it all that much. I intend on upgrading my GPU into an Intel Arc B580 as it doesn't go towards NVidia and is a sizeable and affordable upgrade, any recommendations if that'll be strong enough / what I should get if I intend on playing this in VR

Duping cheat / game economy? [Question]

Here's something simple, but probably controversial, that I feel could add a whole new element to the game:

What if HG were to fix-out the duping cheat so that nobody could lazily build up huge quantities of stuff and splurge it all over the Nexus? All this does is make loads of billionaires, for whom much of the challenge of the game is suddenly gone.

Say we all had to actually graft for our money? And say they put something in place for when we eventually do have more money than we need? It took me a couple of hundred hours to reach my first billion, just from normal gameplay (I absolutely refuse to duplicate), but now I have all this whonga and nothing to spend it on...

What if HG added ships or upgrades that cost billions, at the same time removing the shortcuts to make those billions without effort? Suddenly there's a whole extra incentive and reward for late-game players. Maybe they could add a marketplace mechanic so we could sell each other the good stuff? Maybe we could buy the flash ships that we might have missed from expeditions?

Right now, I'm just going around with all this money and wishing there was something useful to do with it.

Possibly Unpopular Opinion: The Beacon Update Needs Polish [Suggestion]

An opinion piece, so please take with a grain of salt.

As a release, I feel like the Beacon update is a bit rough. And I don't say that lightly, I say that after playing it a bit and still feeling frustrated at times.

The heart of Hello Games is in the right place with this update, but the implementation still leaves a lot to be desired, especially in terms of finding what you're looking for and not getting caught in a lengthy treadmill.

I like the idea of being able to upgrade different buildings in a settlement individually, but not being able to upgrade any more buildings in a settlement until the first 1 is finished This arduous, Because of two reasons. Firstly because every building in your settlement has a nav marker, it's very difficult to find out which building is currently waiting to be completed. Unless I'm missing something, there's no special NAV marker to point you to which building is waiting for your sign-off before its grand re-opening.

Secondly, the amount of time it takes to upgrade an individual building is a bit excessive, in my opinion of course. I can start upgrading one building, and then it could take up to 60 or 90 minutes for it to complete upgrading. I'm usually not gonna be playing No Man's Sky for that long honestly. This means that I won't be able to start a new upgrade until my next play session. Then add the other sunk time cost gathering materials and crafting items required for each building upgrade.

Combine all of this over four possible settlements that one could own, and it becomes tedious.

Personally, I barely even want to touch one settlement, and I completely dropped my autophage settlement because the mission had it spawn on some bleak world with barely any visibility and steaming hot cyclones every 5 minutes. I know I can find another autophage settlement on a better planet, but I really...

All walls suddenly the same bright colour scheme [Screenshot]

Hi, I started playing NMS this month, and I just learnt the alloy wall blueprint and some other blueprints for alloy buildings. Now, when I use LShift to change walls, they all have the same Red & White colour scheme. I can change the colours to the other normal colours, but not to this one. Is this a bug or glitch? Can I recreate this with other colours? I find all the usual colours really dull and drab, and want to have brighter colours. I like the brightness of this colour scheme - so if anyone knows how I can reliably recreate brighter colour schemes, I'd be very grateful!

More bug fixes in yesterday's Experimental branch update. [Information]

Experimental Branch 09/07 Fixed an issue that could cause low resolution textures on base parts on PC. Fixed an issue that could cause owned Settlements to not appear on another platform when using Cross-Save. Fixed an issue with audio dropping out when using headphones on Switch 2. Fixed a Switch specific issue where Freighter base rooms would not render correctly.

The issue with low resolution textures was apparently a difficult one to find.

To whoever this "Vex" guy is... THANK YOU! [Screenshot]

First time playing today since around launch and was just chilling in the anomaly landing area and noticed this guy had a sick white squid looking ship, did the point and thumbs up emote, then he walks over to my giant hunk of shit and states that lol. He then proceeds to fill my inventory AND my ship inventory with like 150 MILLION credits worth of stuff...

I didn't even notice the 'Starship AI Valves' that are worth 120 million alone, I had counted like 35 mil and noticed them at the end and my jaw dropped, could not believe it. There's no way this is common in this game right?

Switch 2 Cross-Save a bit of a train wreck [Discussion]

I wasn’t expecting Switch 2 patches to come so much later than the other versions - I have a PS5 save from 3 nights ago that I can’t currently load because the versions are incompatible, and there is no indication of when they will sync up. This feature is essentially broken for days at a time, which seems like a pretty fundamental design flaw! It’s a shame because I was really looking forward to jumping between handheld play on the Switch 2 and PS5 on the TV, but I may have to confine my play to one machine instead.

Passcode protected Power Door [Question]

Me and my brother have been working to try and figure out how to make a passcode door with the power supply/management stuff. We got it except one issue.

If the correct first digit is the control of a power inverter, it lets power through to the second one, which the second correct digit switch toggles, and so forth. But the issue is that you could just turn on every switch and it would work because the wrong numbers don't block it completely. We need a way for the right number to allow power to the next one(or after the last one open the door) without the wrong numbers not doing anything / allowing power to flow.

If you turn on every switch (dots represent switches, example code is 3821) it still would open. You should have to put JUST the correct sequence and not any additional switches.

It's a big one but thanks for anyone who helps! This is so I can passcode protect my supply depots (mining shitloads of copper) from others who take.

Evolving Settlements: NPC Needs, Reproduction, and Player-Driven Galactic Cities [Question]

Hello Hello Games team & NMS community! I’m a new player and wanted to share a bold vision that could elevate No Man’s Sky to a truly living universe. After the Beacon update, the groundwork for settlements is there — but what if we took it way further?

🌾 1. NPC Survival & Real Needs

Imagine if your settlements weren't just decorative, but living systems:

Villagers require food, water, shelter to survive.

If no food is produced → hunger, sickness, death, or migration.

Players can stock central storage with supplies or build farms, wells, medical centers.

NPC roles: farmers, builders, hunters, doctors, guards, etc.

You’d no longer build just for aesthetics — your people’s lives would depend on it.

🔧 2. Automation & Smart Building

Right now, players deliver resources manually for every structure.

Let NPCs take materials from central storage and build on their own.

Allow assigning roles like "Builder" or "Transporter".

Queue up multiple projects and let the AI manage priorities.

Settlements could feel truly autonomous — your role becomes more of a planner or governor.

👪 3. NPC Reproduction & Generations

NPCs can marry, have children, age, and die.

Families create dynasties, with influence over trade, politics, or military.

Return to a planet after 100 hours, and it's a whole new generation.

Villages evolve even without you, and you might see familiar surnames again.

🏙️ 4. Galactic Multiplayer Cities

Now imagine visiting another player’s planet and finding:

A huge city populated with working NPCs.

Shops, transport, marketplaces, even advertisements.

Players can buy property, open shops, hire NPCs, and run in-game businesses.

Competing player-run cities across the galaxy with real economies.

You enter a city not...

What would you like to see from a companion update? [Discussion]

Collecting and evolving companions is a huge part of the game for a lot of people. I know that's something I'm always on the lookout for when I land on a new world, and I can only assume most other players are, too. Something that's always bothered me is how so many creatures are arbitrarily untameable on so many worlds, and yet there's been times when I've been messing around at the Nexus and I've seen people summon those exact creatures up. Beyond the obvious fix of making more creatures tameable, which would be a huge thing in itself, I think overhauling the dye injector would go so such a long way to making people's creature decks so much more varied. There's several I have that are totally immune to dye injection, and it's pretty disappointing. Think about how cool it would be to have a robot dog you fill with rusted metal who actually comes out of an egg in a rusted state, or any number of creatures from unusual climates who you could customize and have reliable results with, rather than just having the egg sequencer be something that only really increases or decreases size with any predictability.

All egg values automatically equate to 0, which is something else that could easily be altered to better indicate worth and rarity. There could even be a whole new market system where high-level players could trade and sell their specifically cultivated eggs for sale in exchange for either nanites or maybe even Quicksilver, where new players could save up and buy an efficient flying creature from an actual player rather than just cosmetics from the Nexus. I think an Egg Exchange would be a very interesting mechanic, and it'd create a whole new incentive in that breeding animals would become something like how it is in our actual world. Something highly profitable, in a way that could potentially shake up the economic system we have now and add further value...

I was coming to look at the thread about how to easily get the glyphs, specifically for the Living Ship quest line, but I never saved it and I do not know where to find it. Is anybody able to send it to me, or just know what I'm supposed to do for this? Thank you

Tips for inventory management [Discussion]

I am fairly new to the game (about 10 hours in) and I am enjoying it a lot. I spend a lot of my time just collecting resources and walking around and I have found that inventory management is really hard for me. I am extremely confused about what I can use for trades, what to extract and what to save as resources for the future. I looked a few things up but it didn't really help much. It would be great if you can help me out with inventory management in general.

This is what my inventory looks like currently

Hello, I've been offline in No Man's Sky for a relatively long time and I've forgotten the quickest way to get the hidden frigate modules or which expeditions you should complete in order to get hidden frigate modules quickly.

Human Head Customization [Suggestion]

Given that humans are anomalies, I would love some human head customization for them. It's a lot of assets but even 4 basic shapes and a few options would be nice.

Am I the only one that does this? [Discussion]

So there's something that I've been doing since I began playing the game, albeit not religiously. I'd say 85%-90% when harvesting mineral deposits with the terrain manipulator I will fill them back in when done. Now, obviously the minerals stay extracted, but the rest of the holes I created during the mineral extraction get filled back in and sometimes it's almost as if the node was never mined. I know this is a purely aesthetic choice on my part, but I feel better doing it. Especially when the node goes deep underground and I end up halfway destroying a cave in the name of progress.

Can't find my ship [Question]

I found a ship and claimed it but I had to get the ressources to repair it and now I can't find it, it's critically damaged, so I can't just teleport it back to me and I also can't destroy it in a space station. I really hope you guys can help me since I couldn't find answers anywhere else.

Not nearly peak, but I’ll take it for just falling into my lap. [Screenshot]

Only 50ish hours into my first playthrough on Switch 2. I saw it at one trading post in my main system but didn’t have the money for it. Kicked myself for not keeping a good stock of cash after that. Shockingly I ran into it again just a few hours later after I sold a bunch of items to stock myself up. Now it’s time to kit it out and try it for a bit.

I got rich by accident [Discussion]

Well, today i wanted to do the Atlas mission, so i searched all the Atlas and obtained the core of the sun, during this i also fought two or three dreadnought but i managed to defeat only one and i don't even killed it, he just flee.

I didn't really checked my inventory, then, i look carefully and see AI stuff worth 1.2BILLION Units total. My heart jumped, i also saw do much exosuit and ship slots, brunch of stuff like that.

I also dropped intercepter ships locations so i decided to try one, on the same planet i dropped two of them (i scrapped them) and a new multitool.

I'm only 35 hours in and all of that made me riche and improve my advancement massively. Tons of new upgrades for my ship, multitool, exosuit, minotaur ect...

And i still have around 400m of sentinel ships waiting lmao

System freighter cost question [Question]

I’ve come back to the game after a while on a fresh save and I’m currently save scumming to land a free S Class Capital freighter. Eventually I’m going to search for an S Class Galleon System freighter (I really like the style of that one) and what I want to find out is roughly how many units will I need to have on hand to go with trading in the Capital freighter? I know the Capital freighter is the “better” option for min max but I’m doing this save as a casual run and focusing on trying out different things than just going for the “best” options. Thanks to everyone in advance!

What’s your Tips, tricks, secrets? [Question]

I’m a PC USER but tips are not exclusive.

What are some of your ‘tips’. The game is huge and there’s always something someone else didn’t know. Even hundred of hours in.

My very tiny contribution is some insignificant pc controls.

Whilst in 1st person cockpit view. You can use Alt to look around but you can also scan planets by looking at them and hitting C. 1, most mainly use a freighter unless they’re new. 2, it’s pretty niche.

Niche also but you can jump pulse by holding A and D together. Accidentally discovered it. Obviously, you can just hold space.

These are not game changers. I’m hoping there’s some more that you all have.

Cool Graphics Bug (upgrade?) [Screenshot]

Not sure what happened here of it's a common bug (first time happening for me and this is my 2nd playthrough). A lot of it looks pretty cool IMO and really highlights for me how much room there is for growth in terms of graphics and textures in this game. My ship and multi-tool look way cooler than they normally do.

What happens to developed settlements after retiring? [Question]

I've got a settlement that I've fully developed with S-class buildings and landing pads, incredibly happy, productive, and populated. This was a pre-Beacons settlement that I grabbed months ago as a new player, because it was the first I ever encountered and I was excited. The mistake I made was acquiring it on a terribly poisonous planet.

I'm tired of dealing with the gross green atmosphere and constant depletion of my toxic shielding, and I was considering retiring and giving it up in favor of focusing on my other 3 post-Beacons settlements which are on paradise planets.

What happens to this place if I retire as overseer? Can someone else come along and inherit all my amazing buildings and stats? Or does it somehow get zeroed out to a small C class settlement?

Seen posts about long walks around planets, & posts about jumping down to planets from freighters... So here's a post about a walk from a planet to a (derelict) freighter. [Video]

Forgot I had saved a video of this! This happened a while back when some jerk called in a freighter too close to an expedition rendezvous.

I was genuinely curious if I could build a base from the surface to the derelict.

I deleted the base after recording because I didn't want to add to the crazyness going on more than I already might have.

Was the first time I had seen this and only later realized how it happened and that it was a griefer.

This planet was weird [Screenshot]

So I found this planet while exploring and jumping through black holes the other day and it had some weird things going on lol

For starters EVERY animal on this planet was just a variation of a walking brain some big, some small, some spiderlike, and even a few yeti looking things that look liked gorillas with just a brain showing for a head (sadly didnt get ant screenshots of those).

I also kept finding these weird double "broken machines" all over the place like every single one I found looked like this. So I nicknamed the planet "nowhere" because "creepy stuff happens in nowhere".

So, I've decided to industrialize oxygen production. the idea is once extracted it goes into the depot and then makes its way down the line to a fairly large array of Depots' (not pictured) for storage and collection. Oxygen extraction is working fine but it isn't being moved to the depots' (ignore the power shortage in the pic's I'm tinkering around, they are usually all powered and extracting). is the layout wrong or something cause in theory this should work perfectly

I havent played NoMansky since it released. I have a ton of questions, Is the objective still to get to the center of the universe and then restart over? Are there major player cities? Does the multiplayer feel like an mmo or more like a co-op game? Are there servers? [Question]

Hello everyone, I havent touched no mansky since it released originally years ago, at the time a ton of people hated on it, and I was one of the few who actually tried to defend the game, because I was having fun exploring the universe and naming planets and species etc... What ruined it for me was that I was expecting the main goal of the game "Reach the center of the Universe" to be either a planet or space station where Every player visits, since everyones objective was to reach there. So I was hoping that by the end I would meet other players and it would be like a cool place to meet and hangout with other players... so my disappointment came when I reached the center of the universe and suddenly I woke up again somewhere in the universe like starting over... it felt very underwhelming at the time, like there was no point in it, and I left.

Along the years i heard about a bunch of updates, dlcs, and I never went back because I always associated no mans sky with a massive disappointment and in my mind the game is still mindlessly exploring a universe with no goal or anything.

These past few days the youtube algorytm hasnt stopped showing me no mans sky videos and shorts, and my interest peaked, Vehicles, Base building, portals, Underwater bases and exploration, giant worms... the game looks really cool, but how does it work?

1- Does it have 1 single server for everything? I dont think that would be possible for a game with thousands and thousands of people right? So is it like a co-Op game?

2-So is it impossible to meet new people while exploring? Are there big cities with tons of players?

3-Can other players destroy my bases?...

Just completed both main story quests yesterday (for the first time), and I have some questions! [Question]

1: I had a base set up next to a portal in Euclid, and now that base is just gone from my list of bases. Is that normal? 2: Is there a reliable way to find portals now? I've read that I need to either use an exocraft scanner or the chart maps, but I feel like I'm missing something. 3: When I use a portal and charge up the glyphs, do I have to charge them every time I want to use it? 4: How do I find new galaxies now? Maybe I'm not paying close enough attention, but it doesn't seem obvious to me how I would go about finding Essentiamm, for example. (I chose the "relentless" planet option at the end of the main quest and when I realized what that was and tried to back out, it wouldn't work. I'm in the Calypso galaxy now)

Repaired ship comes back broken after swapping? [Question]

Hi, I started playing a few days ago and recently found Artemis’s ship. I’ve been repairing it for a couple of days and fixed it about halfway through. The thing is that I needed some components that I had stored in my original ship, so I swapped to it and retrieved them but when I switched back to the new ship all of my repairs where undone.

Is this a bug? Or maybe you can’t fix Artemis’s ship until you progress a bit more on the story?

My wife really really wanted a worm [Screenshot]

My wife isn’t usually into video games, but after I introduced her to No Man’s Sky about a year ago, she became an instant fan. Around six months back, I caught her on a late-night adventure geeking out over the giant flying worms that randomly appear on some planets. She literally spent two hours chasing them around, trying to “catch” one.

Around 3 a.m., she looked over and asked through sleepy eyes, “Hey hon, can I tame those things?”

Caught off guard and half-asleep, I confidently said, “Of course! It’s a creature—why wouldn’t you be able to? she proceeded to commit” another 2 hours through motion sickness full sending attempting to tame these creatures
building structures to get closer looking for eggs checking holes and caves

Turns out... you can't. Not in the wild, at least. After digging into the game’s mechanics, I found out they’re unobtainable as companions. But in my research, I discovered a much smaller version had once been given out as a rare expedition reward. That’s when I made it my personal mission: get the pet by any means, push its genetic limits through any means, and see what’s possible impossible unstable and well just interesting .

After a ridiculous amount of breeding and tweaking and genetic engineering, some great help from other travelers I ended up with a massive behemoth. the resembles more of a raid boss then a companion This thing can zip across the atmosphere faster than most ships—it's an absolute unit for planetary travel.

Some fun stats, because why not flex a little: 🛸 It’s about half the length of a freighter, so yeah—it’s hard to miss. 🚀 Outruns every single exocraft. No contest. 🐾 Despite its beastly size, it’s still a fully functional companion: feed it, pet it, ride it—just like your standard buddies. 🌍 Flying it around new worlds is ridiculously fun.

How many days has Switch 2 crossplay/-save actually worked? [Question]

It's probably a bit of a snarky title, but also meant to be a real question. The Beacon update launched June 4th, the Switch 2 launched on June 5th, and the 5.71 update log posted June 6th.

Game weirdly caps framerate [Bug]

I’ve been having some strange performance issues with the game and I can’t figure out what’s going on. I set the in-game FPS cap to 240, but the game seems to lock itself to specific framerates depending on where I am: Freighter: locked to exactly 80 FPS (flat frametime graph) Space stations: fluctuates between 100–105 FPS Planets: typically around 80–90 FPS

Here’s what makes it weird: The game is running at max settings My GPU (RTX 5070 Ti) is only at ~56–60% utilization, temps under 60°C My CPU (Ryzen 7 7800X3D) sits at 20–30% usage, no threads are maxed out, CPU temps around 75°C No signs of thermal throttling or CPU/GPU bottlenecking I do have a global FPS cap via the NVIDIA Control Panel set to 160 FPS, but even with that disabled, I only saw a small increase (e.g., from 80 to 90 FPS in the freighter), and utilization remained roughly the same

Has anyone experienced anything similar or have any ideas what could be causing this?

The Island Awaits [Civ Advertisement / Unaffiliated]

Travelers, interlopers, friends,

You are cordially invited to partake in a new experience of leisure and hospitality amidst the bright, bountiful stars. Point Bliss is an expansive island resort situated on the verdant planet of New Earth, where vast oceans and far-reaching archipelagos meet the endless skies of Euclid.

Thanks to its unique proximity to the planet’s northern pole, a midnight sun basks Point Bliss in a serene golden hour that covers a large chunk of the day and night cycle. Combined with the complete absence of Sentinels, the resort offers a setting that is as peaceful as it is picturesque, one that I hope will (re)kindle your love for the serendipitous beauty of No Man’s Sky.

Point Bliss is a solo base-building project designed to accommodate a wide range of needs and preferences within our community. It features fully detailed guest and staff areas that seamlessly synthesize form and function while preserving the island’s natural beauty. The project aspires to achieve plausibility and realism without losing the quiet mystique that defines our journeys across the unknown.

Whether you’re looking for a place of respite from the all-seeing Atlas, a refuge of camaraderie among fellow travellers, or a sanctuary of neutrality beyond the pull of factional lines, the island welcomes you with open arms.

See you soon!

Found a planet where the Dissonance Resonators/Sentinels never call backup [Information]

I farmed 20 echo locators, quite a few nanites, and so many mirrors in an hour or less before I had to leave for work. Going to make my S-Class Sentinel hunt much easier.

You can just fly your ship around and bust them up with no consequence or fight. The larger sentinel dogs(?) and tanks(?) can be killed for nanites and other rewards, but the drones just soak up damage and inspect your ship but never attack or call for backup. They seem immortal to ship damage.

Is this a thing? Is it rare? Do Sentinel ship hunters care enough for me to post the glyphs after I get home from work?

Livestock Unit - What am I doing wrong? [Question]

I've set up a livestock unit with a feeder and yes they are powered. I've filled the feeder with creature pellets. I'm standing nearby. The feeder is appearing to feed the animals as I can walk up to them and harvest milk, but the livestock unit is not automatically collecting the resources.

From what I've seen in other threads - I've made sure they're on natural ground. I've tried moving it away from a POI. Does the type of planet make a difference? It's a rich fauna planet but there is extreme weather.

I've spent nearly an hour trying to get it to work and it just seems bugged.

J’ai imaginé une mise à jour appelée At Home avec : - Une quête avec Polo - Des objets pour revendiquer 3 planètes et 3 systèmes, pour les créer littéralement : taille, biome, couleur de l'étoile, etc... - Un nouveau biome : le biome déserté (images) uniquement dans les systèmes bleus (75% de chances) et rouges (25%) - Une expédition : Posséder l’univers -une possibilité de créer en multijoueurs

Starbirth Glitch? [Question]

Problem building mission in settlement [Question]

Hello, i came back after some months of not playing and saw that now you have to inaugurate buildings in you settlement, and after inaugurating all that was allready built i had the mission of bringing 2 solar mirrors to build a (what i belive in english is) residence, but the icon guides me towards the settlements center interface wich does nothing with de two mirrors, and as far as i can see there is no place in the settlement to put them, furthermore, i can't upgrade any building because "there is another construccion site that requires atention" so, what can i do?

Can’t Rename Base??? [Bug]

Didn’t claim freighter, am I screwed? [Question]

Me and my friends started playing NMS at the same time, they mentioned they got a freighter after fighting some pirates in space. After that, they were able to board the freighter and got it as a gift.

I looked back, and I remembered fighting a bunch of pirates who were attacking a big ship, but I never boarded or claimed anything.

Was that my only chance to claim a freighter?

Ship help [Question]

I've seen this ship in the Anomaly a couple of times now and it reminds me of the Pyro ship in Descent. I've been trying to find the parts for it to build my own and I can get close with some bits but not the same.

I'm still in the first galaxy, is it parts or a ship from a later galaxy or an exotic of some kind?

I've gone through YouTube, fandom and Google image search and any other place I can find more times than I can count with no luck. Any help on finding it or component part names would be great

Has anyone seen something like this before? Crops that work in Settlements [Discussion]

I did a mission for an NPC at an inhabited outpost, and he gave me this rare item. It’s an alternate storable version of a Star Bramble blueprint, similar to the inventory version of the portable refiner you get when you pick one of those up.

What’s actually unique about this version is you can place it anywhere in the primary biome, it doesn’t have to be a base (hint: it can be settlements), and it adds a third tab to the outside-of-base build menu when it’s in your inventory. The second picture shows a normal star bulb item next to this Star Bramble “Plantable Seed”.

As you can see in the third and fourth pictures, I’ve happily taken the unusual liberty of planting a bunch of star bulb across my settlement.

The mission was to plant these outside the outpost for the NPC, but I made sure to craft extra just in case. It didn’t give me a blueprint so the only way I can craft any more is using the “Craft More” button in the item description. If I ever run out of this item I’ll no longer be able to craft it.

Has anyone else ever seen this version of crops? And has anyone found any other methods of getting them? I really like the idea of decorating my settlements with crops and getting extra resources from them, so I wanna go look for more.

Help with my performance [Bug]

So, I guess this is a frequent question, but my performance goes crazy after a random time playing.

And is not after I visited 5-6 Planets or different places, is about some time in-game, and that time is completely random. It can be 30 minutes and the FPS goes to 15, it can be 5 hours (Im on vacation, there's few things to do) of playing and nothing happends, is just crazy.

I got a 4060, Ryzen 5 5600g and 16 RAM, not a cut-edge ware but it does the trick for playing on high-ultra on 1080p, and it never gave me problems on performance at any game until now. Should I look for some bugged config, should I set on fire my PC or...?

Okay, one of you folks lied to me... [Discussion]

About a month ago, I made a post on a couple other subs, asking for suggestions on games to play if you only have an hour or so. Someone suggested, you guessed it, NMS.

Jumped to new galaxy, summoned working ship before finding last one [Question]

New Player Part 2 [Discussion]

New set of thoughts: Naming can be a challenge. I think in the system I finally set up my largest home I'll take naming more seriously. But since the game gave me a scientist named "Nude" I'm okay with calling a rock "minor poopus" and "greater poopus." Makes my kids laugh. I think surviving on harsh planets should be a little more challenging but I'm guessing it will be on survival? So maybe I'll try that on a second save? It's just odd to me that I don't need a special exo addition to survive on a radiated planet. A general one that's hazardous will do. Others just make surviving easier unless I'm misunderstanding something? Animals need their limbs to be a little more proportional? I wouldn't mind some tweaks. Maybe also carnivores you have to be wary of like the hazardous plants you encounter? Picked up some - can't remember the exact name right now - but some kind of rock star thing I can put in my base. Loved this. Hoping there's more to "collect." Free building is a challenge even with the camera. I think having a button that allows you to incrementally move a piece up or down like you incrementally rotate would be helpful. Maybe I've been spoiled with Valheim I haven't quite figured out the radar when on a ship. Sometimes items are easy to see and sometimes it's like I scroll from north, do a 360 and still can't see the base icon. It screams noob. I'm sure I'll adjust. Seems like getting a freighter really early is going to make elements of making money much easier. I don't get how personal wonders work yet. Are there limited spots? I loved the fact that in a super hot world a firestorm drains your hazard suit more quickly and water stops you needing it. That was well thought out!

That's all for now. Would love any thoughts, insights etc. as usual!

Immense gratitude [Screenshot]

I’ve been an off/on casual player since before the flop. Always loved this game but life took precedence. Traveling job, two kids, years later I feel like I’m still scratching the surface. I don’t have a whole lot of friends but my wife and kids, and the friends I do have don’t want to play this amazing game.

Well getting into this subreddit this past few weeks, I decided to try the AFK trick in the anomaly overnight and I just want to say THANK YOU! I had half a billion credits and a few things that helped me get more nanites. My ability to play and just enjoy the game amplified 10 times over.

I love this game and always knew the community was special, this just affirmed it for me. Love you animals and thanks to whoever just made my year. Warp on 🤘

A few months ago I went to the library [Screenshot]

They have this thing with my local library where you can book a room for free and my work did that for a meeting. As I was walking to the room I noticed some Nintendo switch games on a shelf. It caught my attention and I saw this game called "No Man's sky". I was like "Oh I remember hearing about that game years ago. I heard it wasn't great... Well it's free to borrow stuff from the library so why not?" I'm now almost 100 hours into the game and my kids are having a great time exploring this amazing universe. Recently got an S class freighter so really happy about that! Also the fact that Hello Games made the Switch 2 version a free upgrade was absolutely amazing. I love this game so much!

Salvaged Data [Question]

I Think I Have Officially Soft Locked Myself [Information]

First and foremost: Spoilers for the end of the game ahead.

So I reset the simulation and all of my techs were destroyed. This wouldn't be a problem were it not for the fact I was using a sentinel starship meaning that all of the basic techs used dissonant materials which only spawn on dissonant worlds. This is a problem because:
A) The Atlas didn't put me on a dissonant world
B) I do not have any bases on dissonant worlds
C) I do not have any spare dissonant parts available
D) I did have enough repair kits to complete necessary repairs

So, I do believe I have done the difficult task of soft locking myself in NMS.

If you have any recommendations, do let me know so I can perhaps salvage this save.

Lost in Space [Discussion]

I’m currently stranded on Eardog Sigma. It was the starting planet for a previous expedition. When I started the expedition my ship was broken (of course) and instead of fixing it I stepped into a player teleporter. It took me to their base on a floating island and brought my ship along. Playing around I fell off the island and now can’t reach my broken ship. I’m going to make the 2 hour walk to Luftyburr’s base hoping there is a teleport there. Any other advice is welcome travelers.

Cannot find any sentinels [Question]

Hey guys, quick question.

2 days ago I started playing NMS again after 2 years or so of not playing. I started a perma death save game and spawned in.

So far I have visited 5 planets and each planet has no sentinels that I could see anywhere. They don’t spawn anywhere.

Am I missing something these past 2 years? Not sure if this is normal now since before I remember there always being sentinels everywhere. Do I have to complete the main quest line for this to be fixed? I kinda just did my own thing and ignored the main quest.

Any help or advice would be appreciated!

Not galaxy jumping in order?? [Question]

Double Exotics! [Screenshot]

So I’m sitting at the only trading outpost in this new system trying to see what their exotic looks like. Started around 2:30 PM. Didn’t see one. Reset many times.

Then around 7 I saw one land and swooped in and bought it.

I shit you not the next ship that landed next to it was the same model of exotic! It’s a good thing too because the second one had notably better stats. I’m not yet far enough into the game to really have every top module. But I moved the infra knife and thruster modules around until I got an infra knife damage and a movement I was happy with.

I think I’m done ship hunting for a while and can go back to exploring. I’m very happy with The Iron Gnat. From the beginning of this, my first playthrough, I had hoped for an itty bitty ship. Tonight I got 2!

Question about storage containers? [Question]

I love the magic Bluetooth function of the storage containers in this game. It makes moving items between bases really easy. However, I’m not exactly sure of some of the finer details on how it works.

I made a really shitty base design in my C-tier beginner freighter, and I’m planning on tearing it all down and starting over on a new ship. However, I obviously don’t want to destroy the items in my storage containers, or want to go through the hassle of moving them around to save them.

I just wanted to confirm before I start tearing stuff down - items in storage save when the container is destroyed right? I’d imagine if I rebuild the container in my new design everything should be as I left it. Just wanted to confirm before I accidentally delete my entire resource stockpile lol

No Man's Sky has the perfect universe. A true, learning AI has the perfect mind. It's time to combine them. [Suggestion]

First and foremost, a massive thank you to Sean Murray and the entire Hello Games team. The redemption and evolution of No Man's Sky is one of a kind in gaming history. You've built an infinite, beautiful universe - a technical marvel that continues to inspire awe.

But as we explore its quintillions of worlds, a thought arises: what if this universe could be not just endless, but also truly alive? This post is a humble proposal for that next giant leap: a concept we call the Living Universe. The procedural engine of No Man's Sky provides a perfect foundation. Landing on a unique world always feels like a new discovery, but what if that discovery was a world that truly listens, remembers, and grows with us?

Our solution is to integrate a next-generation generative AI directly into the heart of the universe. This is a vision for the future of interactive entertainment: a persistent, evolving digital reality, guided by a true AI, built on a foundation loved by millions. It is not a question of 'if' this will happen, but 'when'. We hope this proposal can be the spark that starts a legendary collaboration. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I just 'made' tens of billions of units giving away companion eggs at the Nexus. [Discussion]

After I figured out how easy it is farming Nipnip bud I sort of stopped caring about earning units. I already had everything I needed, so I started giving things away at the Nexus most everytime I'd play. Eggs just seemed like the most significant commodity I could share, so I set up my whole companion deck with the intention of processing and giving away eggs. Exotic for advanced players, and upgraded flyers and runners for new ones coming out of standard ships. Around 10 eggs across 3 biomes. I've been doing this on and off for a few months now, and today I booted up the game to find hundreds of billions worth of scrap starship parts in my inventory spread across my exosuit, starship and freighter inventory. I could be spending the results until the end of time if I cashed them in. I plan on randomly transferring most of it to new players, along with the eggs I'll keep on producing. It's nice to know people care lol. I've been moving Nip for years now and I just made more in one day than I ever could have through any other legitimate means the game actually has to offer. The eggs will keep on coming, my own after 500 hours are hardly the best there is, I know there's people out there in the void who have specimens I could only really dream of, but I'll continue to log in and share them with new players regardless of the money I've earned now because varied exploration is always going to be the best thing NMS has to offer.

Claim Jumping? It it possible? [Question]

Wondering if someone can somehow get credit for discovering a system that was already discovered by someone else.

Situation: About 10 months back I found a undiscovered system near the core of one of the galaxies in the teens. I found a paradise planet, became administrator of a settlement and built a base right outside the settlement. I renamed the system and named and uploaded a couple of the more unique planets to the game servers. I then spent a lot of time and resources building up the settlement. After the main community expeditions were complete (fishing, ghost hunting, relics), I took a break from the game for a few months.

When I returned for the Beacons update, I now discover that another player is now credited with discovering my system 5 months ago... 5 full months after I discovered this system. Moreover, some of the planets in this system that I visited are now listed as having been discovered by yet another player and this was just one month ago.

The two planets that I renamed are still shown as being discovered by me.

I could believe that someone might get credited for being the first to land on one of the obscure planets in this system, but how could someone else be given credit for discovering the whole system five months after I discovered that system and uploaded my discoveries?

Is this some sort of game error or server reset? I play NMS via Gog and these two claim jumpers look to be console players. Is this some form of minecraft-style "griefing" or are system discoveries not actually credited to the first player to visit the system?

Cross-saves with Switch [Question]

Pretty recent newcomer to NMS. I started on Switch, and now Switch 2. Started playing a lot more when I got the Switch 2. However, I was trying to build an underwater base and it got super glitchy. So I just used cross saves to load on my Mac. Works great on there, but I do want to primarily play on Switch. But now… my save seems to be stuck on Mac because latest Beacon update wasn’t included on Switch… :( is this common? Will I be able to get it back on Switch at some point soon? Either way having a lot of fun, and now very much looking forward to Light No Fire. I hope they bring it to a platform I own though… not a PC user in general.

There’s no way… [Screenshot]

After a few weeks of working on a treehouse build I got on to find the tree disappeared. There’s no way this is permanent. I know using terrain in this game is a suicide mission but c’mon.
I’ve seen enough of the trees around the area to know they haven’t moved. At least the big ones. The smaller ones with purple will occasionally move and move back.
The green ones are ones I places from the build menu.
This game. Love it, and hate it. Depends on the day.

I’ve restarted the game. Since I build constantly I save a restore point basically every ten minutes. Loaded the last one up and the tree is still gone.

Unbelievable. I mean, it is believable but c’mon!

No loading screens? [Screenshot]

I've had NMS since day one and love it. I just happened to look at the store page again and noticed it says "no loading screens."

Um... what do they think the teleport and ship warp screens are? What about the screen when you travel through the center of a galaxy to the next one that plays while your rig calculates cache for the new landing spot in the new galaxy? Those are definitely loading screens. Sure, there's not a loading screen going from a space station to a planet, and it is very impressive, but their wording states there are "no" loading screens and that's definitely not the case. It's well-hidden, and the shortest loading screens for a game of any size, but it's still loading screens.

Just a nitpick. Carry on.

It took me a good five minutes of staring at the screen and crying before I made up my mind. I overlooked the fact that letting Artemis die was effectively a mercy killing, and I uploaded her. Looking through threads of what other people chose, I'm aware that I'll probably get flamed for this. It's not that I wanted to torture her. I just wanted her to live.

Well, I didn't expect to get a call from her a couple of minutes later. It gave me the option to lie to her about what happened. I chose not to, and I told her about the simulation she was in, and then she hung up.

I know that it's just a video game, yet I can't help but feel immense guilt for making what was probably the wrong decision every time. When I first chose to upload her, I thought I was giving her something else to explore. Now I'm second guessing myself to the point that I just shut off the game for the day lol.

PVP Tournament [Discussion]

I know this is a long shot, but who knows.

So, it would be cool to have a PVP tournament with limitations-

The heats leading up to the championship are divided by PC and consoles.

The winners are then divided up between three teams consisting of equal parts consoles and pc.

The reasoning is that PC can alter files/cheat, so this creates equality.

The winning team is gifted a shrine in galaxy 256 and added as a Community Highlight via the Nexus- however, only accessible after one successful jump to Hilbert.

Everyone wins.

Anyone else with this issue? I've recalibrate the battery, shut off wifi, screen brightness is about half but it doesnt matter.

Question about the Anomaly [Question]

Hi everyone.

So in the Anomaly you can meet other players, very nice. But no way these players I see are ALL the players at that moment in the Anomaly. Because that would be maybe... hundreds, maybe thousands?

So are there multiple "groups", put together in Anomalies? How does the game decide with which players you are in an Anomaly? Are they local to your own system? Random? Hope you people understand my question.

Question about expedition [Question]

Hi guys, me and some friends started the game a few days ago, definitly one of the best game that i played with my friands, but i got a question, it might sound stupid since for the majority here it will be obvious

But when do expediction start ? Im wondering cuz well there isn't any timer to say when it will happen, so does it happen like 2 or 3 times a month, or does the devs start the event when they want ?

All my missions are glitched or bugged ! [Bug]

I started a completely new normal save recently after I heard about the purple star systems . I’ve done everything I need to do in order for that mission to activate. Will not activate and I noticed after I did the full artimes and atlas quest line I never got the glyphs and never got them when I crafted the seed things and warped to the Atlas stations . I birthed the new star and everything and I have the star seed blueprint and I put artimes in the simulation . But still no glyphs and no those who returned quest will not activate also null missions are glitched no matter how many times I reset it . I feel like everything in this game is bugged and glitched and there are no fixes just hopes that it will work the next save you make . And yes I’ve done the settlement metal mission and I feel like I’ve done the purge because artimes is in the simulation I took a portal and birthed a new star now atlas has me giving it wonders endlessly . I’ve done everything required to start those who returned and it will not start . I know it’s a lot but any work arounds or ideas ?

Easily my new favorite companion… [Video]

Very new player here- recently learned you can feed/tame the wild fauna and wow I was already having fun but now I’m completely sold. I’ve always loved pet classes in rpg’s and grew up on games like Pokemon so this feature is definitely one of my favorites so far! Hopping out of my starship, calling this big butterfly-snake to my side and taking off to go explore is just so much fun. I can’t wait to see what other varieties of fauna I find while exploring and I’m excited to sink many more hours into this game!

Anyone else have a favorite companion they like to have following them around or helping them explore?

Over 100 ships and still no A class explorer (abandoned mode) [Question]

Grinding away out here headed to outer rim in permadeath abandoned hardest survival settings.

Made it out past 980,000 LY and now having to head to the corner to eek out a bit more distance.

Anyway, along the way I have been trying to find an A class explorer and after well over 100 distress signals reached, still no luck.

I am hitting korvax systems. Using minotaur to find ships. I know abandoned mode makes everything pretty much tier 1. But still I was hoping for at least a 1 in 100 chance of finding one!

I have an A class sentinel that gets about 1400 hyperdrive but want to get an explorer.

Any advice on a different approach? Getting plenty of A and B ships in other types just no explorer. Would take too long to grind enough mold for the nanites to upgrade from B to A or S. Small stack sizes and all.

It must be out there!

Phantom base symbol? [Question]

I decided to establish a portal and a core base in each galaxy, so I started galaxy hopping. I got to #99 and found a couple weird things when I got close to the core. There was one system that said I had visited before and there is another with a base symbol next to it. So I went to investigate and it was first contact. None of the planets are discovered and after visiting each one, no base revealed itself. It’s a purple system, so I doubt I visited this galaxy on accident in a previous save and don’t remember. Any idea what is going on?

Thinking of turning on PvP for the extra challenge – or am I just asking for grief? [Question]

Now hear me out... I've gotten far enough into the game that I'm finding no challenge at all from the Sentinels and Pirates, so I'm wanting to spice things up a little and maybe get into some stickier situations.

If I turn on PvP, I'm hoping that it'll invite random firefights from some of the cheekier travellers out there, or am I just asking for trouble? Are PvP'ers mostly just griefers?

I'm turning off death consequences, but keeping equipment damage from combat, just so there's some risk to it, so I'm not completely bonkers. What has our experience been with PvP?

Stuck in an parallel universe. (Xbox to switch) [Fan Work]

If anyone is out there that receives this message, I'm in need of help. It seems during one of my jumps I've ended up in a parallel universe to my original. Everything seems to be in order until I summon the anomaly. Usually bustling with travelers about their day, now is void of any. Nada and Pollo are still present but they do not acknowledge the lack of other travelers. Once every few cycles I will gain glimpses of the other universe, massive bases built on planets, but after the first contact seem to disappear.

Pre-Beacons settlement broken/reverted [Question]

The hub reports it is my settlement but it keeps getting attacked by normal sentinels (not the corrupted ones I used to get) and the prompt is telling me to use the hub terminal to become Overseer (but I already am)

I've tried the experimental branch but this hasn't helped?

I feel like I'm a monster bc I can't stand random animals goofing around my base [Question]

I'm actually a really nice person in real life. I love helping people and I'm kind to animals. I even don't even kill spiders when they show up in my house(they do like once a month). Instead I catch them with a piece of paper and gently let them outside. Even when I am playing other games I'm mostly humaniitarian.

But in NMS? Whenever I see some weird-looking creature crawling or bouncing around "my planet", I get so angry. Idk why but I hate em. like those bouncing sea cucumber things or those plant-animal hybrids - I exterminate them on sight. I can’t stand those creatures slithering around my base. It just feels wrong.

What I hate the most is that I can't kill those titan worms. They're the worst - they have a hideous look, pop out of nowhere and are god damn noisy. Imagine having a peaceful time at your base when a fucking giant flying worm pops out of the ground screaming.

Does this make me a monster? Am I fucked up or are there any others like me?

If I look at a distant landscape, these weird waves keep moving across it, kind of like it’s a hot day and the distant mountains, etc are moving across it.

If I then took the new, bigger offspring from the egg and then took its egg and did the same thing in the sequencer, will it grow even bigger than the last one? Can I scale up the size of my companions infinitely like this? Or is there some kind of limit?

Question about freighters and frigates. [Question]

I was lucky enough to get an A class Resurgent freighter after about a week week into the game but just fighting and rescuing freighters as I explored. But I noticed that my frigates sometimes get damaged even though the frigate groups are 2 stars higher than the difficulty. My question is, do different Freighter types have different repair maps for the frigates? It seems I need to walk for days just to get to the components on the frigates to repair them. I'm thinking it might be because of the giant freighter I have. I see repairs becoming annoying so if smaller freighters have faster repair times for frigates it would be a pretty nice boon.

Getting to the center of the galaxy [Question]

I'm really confused about how you actually reach the center of the galaxy. (for context, I'm in Budullangr at the moment) I used portal glyphs to get as close as I can to the galaxy center. From what I can gather in the galaxy map, I'm about 3000-3500 LY away from the center. I spent the last day upgrading my freighter's Hyperdrive so it would have enough range to make the jump, and now it has a range of 3657.1 LY and a full hyperdrive. In the galaxy map, though, in the center of the galaxy, there's nothing to click on or to jump to. Am I doing something wrong? Any help is appreciated :)

Module Tinkering Station concept [Suggestion]

I came up with a concept to modify Upgrade modules for mid to late game, a bit inspired by the reforge system in many games. We all know that to get op upgrades you need to jump from system to system, spend loads of nanites on modules and pray you got a good one. that can be really tedious, especially if you're farming X class upgrades, been there, done that.

This station can help you get cool upgrades at the cost of some nanites and other materials (mind that you can't upgrade blueprint modules, just the random ones).

(just a heads up, I suck at balancing stuff, so the prices might not be the best)

The blueprint for the station can be purchased at the anomaly, and can be built using 2 circuit boards (the ones crafted with poly fibre and heat capacitors), 10 metal plating and 2 counterfit circuits (bougt from outlaw stations).

Once built, you can upgrade the class of undiscovered modules using nanites, like you woud with your multi tool or ship (C->B 250 nanites, B->A 500 nanites, A->S 750 nanites). You can't upgrade S class modules to X class, but you can modify them. You can also repair Rusted Technology using a wiring loom and nanites to get a random upgrade.

But that's not the main thing! You can also use materials and nanites to reroll stats. The amount of nanites depends of the class of the module, C class being the cheapest and X class the most expensive, while the materials stay the same (with some exceptions):

-1 Wiring loom is a full reroll.

-100 chromatic metal rerolls one random stat, changing it to another (or the same with another value).

-200 ammonia/uranium/dioxite/phosphorus rerolls the first/second/third/fourth stat respectively.

-100 ferrite dust/ 100 pure ferrite/ 50 Magnetized ferrite adds a random stat if possible (Boltcaster upgrades for example: C class upgrades have a max of 2; B and Sentinel have 3; A, S and X have 4)....

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this glitch. I have a very old, S class settlement that has been at the max amount of buildings since shortly after settlements were released years ago. When Beacon came out, all the buildings defaulted to B class instead of C and all, and it was still rated an A class settlement. Now all the buildings are upgraded to S, the settlement is S class... except one structure.

This one building - which looks like some sort of residence - is missing a terminal. It doesn't even have the terminal icon on the analysis visor. The terminal is nowhere to be found. It's B class, so I'm not taking penalties like I would from a C class. But it still kind of sucks to be short of perfection because of a glitch.

Has anyone else seen a building without a terminal? I submitted a report with these screenshots a week ago to HG. None of my other settlements have even one building without a terminal.

alluring specimen in the sultry disaster weather 🌊🌈 [Screenshot]

hi everyone! today is my second day in the game and i already played for 18 hours!

today i came across an interesting planet that had ‘sultry disaster’ as its weather, fauna & flora full, had ancient bones etc. i landed on an island, was looking around, and seeing “alluring specimen” near me got me hooked. one problem was that i obviously don’t have submarine yet and never tried diving. i tested the calm waters a bit and saw that i don’t immediately die as i get in.

i swam to the point and dived in. there it was. the most beautiful creatures i’ve seen. swimming around calmly. i tried to capture their delicate movements until i ran out of oxygen.

then i came out. omg. the calm sea turned into a tsunami! big waves nearly swallowed me! i panicked and couldn’t think of diving back. there was heavy storm. then i turned back. inbetween that storm there was a double rainbow! but i was still trying to survive! i tried to fly and thank god the wind made my jet fly a lot higher than the usual. i finally landed on some crystals in the middle of the sea and took these screenshots.

after i finally got out of the sea, i sat in the shore, watching the sunset with the rain in my spaceship, almost feeling the salt in my mouth, unable to leave this majestic place.

what an experience! what a game!

Underwater base help [Question]

I have recently found a lithium deposit at a depth of 1365u, so I decided to build up and build a oil rig type base. However when I get about 1000u away from the base computer I can’t build any higher. Does this mean that there is a 1000u build height limit, I thought you could build up indefinitely.

Are negative traits still being removed from settlements? [Question]

I started a new save after Worlds II and so far positive traits have been added to my settlement. Enough that there's now a second page. However I have yet to have a positive trait replace a negative one. Is that still a thing? Or do the negative traits stay for good?

Also, I'm pretty sure at this point that 90% of my settlement's maintenance costs are fireworks.

I finally beat a space battle and got this bad girl for free [Screenshot]

I’m thoroughly enjoying this game and community!

First I got gifted millions of dollars my first time at the Anomaly by a random legend.

Then I finally beat my first space battle thing after 50 hours of playing (I just ran most of the time or it would glitch) and got this! It’s so cool.

Now I just need to learn how to do any of the freighter stuff, zero idea how to build or send out fleets lol.

How does staves customization work? [Question]

I would appreciate if someone could explain me how the colors work? I've been trying to assemble a staff from different parts but the colors are all over the place and they look horrible. Only one time they had the same colors and looked well but in a color I dont like so I know there can be the same color with different parts. Could someone explain me how to get one specific color for all pieces? If its not, is it posible with a save editor or something? But if I used a save editor, the colors I choose will my friends see it the same way?

Thanks in advance

Capital ship layout changed, WHY?! [Bug]

I left for about 50 minutes with my game running, and when I came back, I went to my Capital ship, and the layout was different. Where had a portal; this was something else instead, but it was not random. It was the same build my friend made on his Capital ship, while I was gone. We are in a group together.
NOTE: He did not do it. Some things from my old layout stayed??
WTF is happening, please help...

Can we give more life to npcs? [Question]

New player here. I always play Skyrim or starfield and I like how lively the npcs are when it come to interactions plus with combat. Also when you have ai mods on it, it makes it much more interesting and fun.

Would be awesome if in this game by random instances, the freighters can be boarded and raided by pirates or just opposing npcs and the npcs can use weapons to defend

Npcs pulling up to random planets where you are and are walking around mining things, pirates showing up and sentinals fight them and the other npcs.

Though it’s understandable that these games are completely different and that’s what makes them unique. It probably would never happen anyways. it would be just be nice to have a more immersive feeling like you’re not alone in the game. IMO of course.

I feel this way with sea of thieves as well as it just feels lifeless even tho there’s other players. Idk if that makes sense to yall.

I love this game as much as anyone else, but over the past near decade, I've notice alot of weird design choices [Discussion]

-The base Mining Beam has an upgrade module, but the Advanced Mining Beam doesn't

-Only nine of the technology blueprints have upgrade modules

-There is an option to change the select option from "hold to select" to "instant", yet it only works in very specific parts of the game

Which ones stand out to you?

Looking for some in game assets ... [Question]

So, I finally gave in and added a feature to my app that a lot of people have been asking for.

To finish it off with a bit of polish, I'm looking for the category icons used for Exocraft and Exosuits - things like Health & Life Support, Hazard Protection, Movement System, etc.

Does anyone know a good source for those? Ideally the actual in-game icons (or close), with a transparent background. Any pointers would be much appreciated!

FYI, I'll do an "official annoucement" once everything is ready.

Need some help, im a bit confused about getting sentynal ships [Question]

So Im still a bit early in the game, I've gone to a couple of atlas stations and done the triangulation thing for Artemis.

Ive landed on a dissonance planet and defeated the things that drop inverted mirrors, and I eventually got a echo locator, I used it and it took me to the base terminal and I inputted the glyphs and it only gave me the option to lift a lock down, then gave me aeron turbo jets, but no ship location.

I also defeated a 5 tier wave and got the location of a sentynal pillar, but no ship

Im just wondering if I did something wrong or im not far enough in the game yet

40 hour newbie and I have questions regarding ships and freighters [Question]

Hello everyone! As I stated, I am 40 hours deep into the game and I want to dive into ship building and freighters, so here are some of my questions atm: 1) How does the ship stat system work? Does it mater what parts I use? If so, does every single part have its own stats or does every set/type have its own set of stats? 2) How can I increase the tec slots for my ship? I already have an S-class built but I wanna build more, I wont be fully satisfied until I have built at least 6 or 7 S-class ships 3) Are there different freighter customizations besides changing colors and the building part? If so, how could I get them? 4) Can you upgrade a freighter from B class all the way to S-class? Or do I have to get lucky and hope to get another one that is S-class? If so, will my custom built space inside my first freighter be transfered to the other one? Will the same happen with my crew?

Those are all my questions for now Thx for reading!

So I went to the anomaly about 10 minutes before this post was made, and this guy randomly dropped everything you see into my inventory. Does this happen often? He only had like, 60 hours of playtime, and that seems like an unrealistic amount of loot for a casual player, although maybe if you were just into grinding. but to then give it all away? that's just weird... not gonna complain though.

A WIP of Two Anomalies [Fan Work]

Hiiii kind of my first time drawing Nada and Polo properly, slowly figuring them out but since it’s a wip and again first time drawing them, it’ll look a little wonky so sorry about that!! Hopefully they’ll turn out better once it’s completed tho!

Was originally gonna draw them on the balcony of the Anomaly that’s where they hang, but currently just struggling to make it work so I just decided “uhhh. They’re looking at a hologram of a galaxy or something why not” but maybe I’ll attempt the balcony again 💀

All that to say: This may take a while but here’s hoping I finish it!!

🚀 I Found a System With 4 Exotic Worlds – How Rare Is This?! [Screenshot]

I just had what might be my luckiest system discovery yet in No Man’s Sky.

📍 I warped into a system that contains: 🪐 2 Exotic Planets (Fissured + Redacted) 🌑 2 Exotic Moons (Petrified Moon + Shattered Moon) 🌍 All 4 are orbiting within the same system!

I’ve only got around 40 hours of playtime, and I’ve already found this gem. I knew multiple exotics in one system were rare, but 4?! From what I’ve heard, even 2 is considered lucky.

https://preview.redd.it/nyzq328vlscf1.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=078db58a5d2c212848c5138a186c8b298e5255f9

I even landed on one and caught a cool shot of a planet barely brushing under its rings at night (pic below).

🧠 Question for the pros:
Has anyone ever found 5 or even 6 exotic bodies in a system? Curious how far this rabbit hole goes. I'm thinking this might be a 1-in-a-million kind of find.

Anyway, thought I’d share for anyone who loves rare system hunting or mega-anomaly exploration.

Man, I wish there was a way to retroactively record video [Discussion]

I had one of those classic NMS encounters today that I wish I could have recorded to share with y'all. Instead, I'll try and paint the picture with words.

My Autophage settlement is on a high Sentinel activity world, so they've always been a bit aggressive. But a week or so ago they upgraded to "Frenzied" (aka psychotic). Not sure if this is related to hunting them for sport and Salvaged Glass, or just part of the ebb and flow of Sentinel life.

It's gotten to the point that there is always one sniffing around, and within 20 seconds of stepping out of my office they kick off. So my routine is now to summon Big Lug, my fully upgraded Minotaur, before leaving the office. He keeps them occupied while I do the building site rounds, then I join in the fun.

Today, by the time I reach the currently upgrading building to re-open it, shit is already going down. Sentinel laser bolts and Minotaur cannonballs flying.

Of course, this doesn't bother the settlers, who just get on with their day. One wonders up to me, just as a Sentinel flies by at ground level between us, pursued by Laylaps. About two seconds later, the Sentinel goes careening back the other way at Mach Jesus, trailing sparks and smoke, having taken a Minotaur canon blast at point blank. Immediately followed by Big Lug crashing to earth between us then taking off again in a gout of jetpack flame, chasing his quarry. Followed a few seconds later by Laylaps, happily beeping and booping.

The settler doesn't bat an eyelid, just gives one of those jaunty little waves and saunters off, trailing a "Happy with the Overseer's decision" thought bubble.

Ah, the life of an Overseer.

Saved a comrade [Screenshot]

Picture unrelated. Just wanna share a positive memory from this game yesterday.

So I'm cruising reddit and I saw a post made here in Russian. I learned Russian in high school and lived in Russia a little (before the first Ukraine invasion in 2014).

This dude was stuck in a stairwell on his settlement and couldn't get out- no save, no geology cannon... so I offered to come and... geology cannon him out. He sent me coordinates, I came, did him the favor, and he respawned. We danced a little, fought some pirates and sentinels. I built my comrade here a temple for the memory on a nearby planet.

This game has helped me emotionally and here one of my pastimes (Russian) got blended in. I love this game and I love this community.

help with this egg [Question]

After randomly picking up this egg, I did several missions to retrieve "parts of something" that I believe belong to the living ship, but now it tells me to interact with the egg in my inventory (I've tried everything and the hints don't appear.

Display worry on switch [Question]

Hi! (Sorry for my English I'm not native)

I'm playing on Switch, definitely enjoying anyway. But something really bothers me (still after 50+ hours): when I highlight anything in the elements menu, where you can upgrade the suit, ship, mutlitool or freighter ( - button) The description of each elements or part is never complete, I should be able to slide down to show the rest of the informations, but i can't. Or I just never found which command I should use to display the rest of the info. Both sticks wont do it, neither does the + button... I can just read the top part which is visible. But I m missing key informations and it drives me mad...

Anyone sees what I mean? Do you have the same problem? Do you have a solution?

Thanks anyway for the great sub :)

Are there hackers in this game and can you get banned if you were gifted stuff by them? [Answered]

So basically, I was in the space anomaly and a player was just gifting stuff to everyone, including me. I got a lot of loot, though not an unbelievable amount (I am new to the game but, from what I gathered, the amount of loot that was gifted can be gathered legitimately with a lot of grinding). But now I am worried that I might get banned for being gifted those things if the player turns out to be a hacker (sort of like how it was in GTA online)

So, are there hackers in this game? If so, can you get banned if they gifted you stuff?

AI (Hear me out) [Information]

Launch day player of NMS. Have 1000+ hours and still can hop in the game and play for fun. My partner just started playing and I have gotten back in a bit more to share in exploration. To get me back into the game I 'programed' a Gemini Gem to by my in-universe AI and you know what, it just kind of works.

I feel like the grew of Star Trek: TNG touching my ear piece to access the ships computer. I am not using it to cheat (which I bet you could) but more like cross referencing things, asking what components I need to build something, and lots of things that are already in the guide.

Super easy to do and would be awesome if it could somehow actually be integrated into the game. I keep one earpiece in while playing and again, it feels really cool. I don't feel it is cheating the game because I have AI now so I assume the traveler would too.. Unless this is some odd Dune universe and I missed that over my 1000 or so hours.

Difficulty settings feel off – Survival is just annoying, Normal is way too easy? [Question]

Hey everyone,

I've been getting back into No Man's Sky recently, and I'm running into an issue with the difficulty settings. Survival mode sounds more challenging – and it is at first. The beginning can be rough, but once you're a bit established and know what you're doing, it really doesn't feel that much harder than Normal… just more annoying. Constant inventory management, limited space, and resource juggling – not because it's truly difficult, but because it slows you down.

Normal mode, on the other hand, feels way too easy for me. You basically never die, and resources are everywhere. I'm really looking for a mode that offers a solid challenge without just relying on tedious restrictions.

So I'm wondering:
What difficulty settings do you play on? Have you customized the settings for a better balance? Any recommendations for tweaking things to make the game feel more engaging without becoming frustrating?

Curious to hear your thoughts!

I like this game but new to exploration type games. Help me out. [Discussion]

Just upgraded my ships to the Emeril drive thingy and am somewhat far in the game but each time I log in I'm not sure what my options are.

  1. My current game loop is traveling along the Atlas path, but its seems like it's thousands of jumps away. For each new system I visit I go the the space station and grab my exosuit upgrade and free items from the trader. then I call my freighter and scan the whole system and upload it for free nanites, but after doing this like 20+ times, most planets minerals seem to be the same repeating stuff. Also have no found many interesting planets... what planet types would offer cool stuff?

  2. In star viewer, what is this blackhole path and why should I chase blackholes?

  3. What side missions should I do, besides the Atlas Path?

In general what do I do in this game as far as exploration goes that seems fun? I'm short on ideas.

Texture/color bug? I like it though [Bug]

So, I loaded up No Man’s Sky after not playing for a while, at least 4 months maybe. Returned back to my base/home I spent a lot of time creating and noticed that the wood walls I had build it with were not the color I initially made it with. I almost assumed they added new color options or changed the existing ones, but when I checked the color options in the base editor, all of the old colors were there and the colors the wood walls on my base were simply not available to choose… In fact, the two separate bases I have on my one planet had the same thing occur with these wood panels. I can change the color to the standard options if I want but can’t change it back unless I copy an existing piece I’ve set down.

I’m not sure if this is a bug or not, but I actually quite like the look and want to leave it this way. I really like the white with dark teal accents. If anyone knows what’s up with this though I’d be glad to find out!

Weird Void Egg question [Question]

I was gifted 5 void eggs (thank you, kind internet stranger!) and went through the mission to get my living ship! Woohoo! Here's the thing...

Right before the part where you go through the portal and consume the souls, I had moved all of the "matured" parts into a different ship's inventory so that I could free up some space to scrap a few ships I found.

I had completely forgotten about doing that. I was still able to finish the Starbirth mission even without any of the parts in my or my starship's inventories. I still have all of the "mature" parts in a different ship inventory. I'm sure I could just put a void egg in my exosuit and pulse drive to see what happens, but I'm curious if anyone else has done something like that and managed to skip all of the previous steps?

Kinda bummed me out since I planned on doing builds with each races material at their settlements and a random stone building kinda throws me off.

Living Frigate Purchase Bug [Bug]

Last Night I used an Anomaly Detector in hopes of finding a second Organic frigate, and i quickly found an S-Class version of one I already had with the same name, from the same system I use as my main base. I coughed up the ~$50mil credits and summoned my freighter only to not find it in my fleet. I left and reloaded 4 times, 5 now this morning, and the Frigate still hasn't appeared while i lost the credits.

I filed a bug report with Hello Games, and hopefully there some sort of fix for this. For context; I was in Multiplayer when it happened, if that makes a difference. Has anyone had this happen before?

FREIGHTER/Capital FREIGHTER questions new traveler [Question]

I am a old player returning after being bored with the game many years back. Never completed nor progressed much but recently came back a few days back and started grinding the game. Saved a few ships along the way none that I liked specifically so waited for the right one. This one now popped out after 2 days of grinding the game slowly. As seen I am still totally newbie but saw that first one was free. I obviously took this but is this rare or somehow better than the usual ones? Didn’t recognize it or think it looked normal compared to the other 2 I’ve seen around and helped out, totally stoked but wondering about storage and class is this good specs, and or rare it said Capital freighter when I looked at it which seems unfamiliar to me.

Does anyone else give away a ton of money and stuff in the anomaly? I like giving stacks of Ai valves at 600 mil a pop. Maybe someone here has gotten some from me SmokeyMcpotts#170 The legend.

This planet was so dark, I could barely see in front of me at night [Screenshot]

First two are from the top of the mountain looking down the cliff, third is from the bottom looking up during the day. The slope was so steep that I could only get up it with an exocraft, the fourth is what my view looked like going up. I ended up accidentally driving deep into a cave, couldn't tell until I ran into a wall. Had to use photo mode to get out and figured I should take some pics of the place.

The planet filter is almost entirely black and white, only let through a tiny bit of red. For context, almost my entire suit is bright red.

Honestly, this level of darkness is what I was expecting space and the night sky to be like in this game, kinda disappointing that it doesn't usually get this dark naturally.

Question on bases so I don’t screw up early. [Question]

Please follow my logic and let me know if I’m missing anything that I can’t undo. I’m just a few hours into the game.

I created my first bare bones base while following the early storyline. It is on a relatively uninteresting frozen planet in a relatively uninteresting low level solar system.

Two warps in I have stumbled upon a much larger system with a Paradise Planet, a good variety of other planets to exploit and a higher mercantile system economy.

I can’t think of any reason I’d want to go back to that first base, and can easily get back to the system via the space station portal if I needed to.

The way I understand it, I can shut that base down and get a capsule with all of my build components back. Then start a longer term base on the Paradise Planet that’s worth putting some work into.

Is there something I’m missing or is this a fairly sound course of action?

Thoughts are appreciated…..

Ultra fast pirate - invincible or bug? [Question]

I've been playing for over 60/70 hours now and today I was attacked by a single pirate. They weren't strong, barely attacked and when they did the damage was small. The issue was that they just kept zooming around my screen like a mad flea in a spaceship. My autopilot couldn't keep up with them and whenever they got hit it started spinning in a spring pattern until I stopped shooting. My question is, was that a bug or just an uber fast pirate? If it's not a bug then how on earth am I supposed to shoot down something I can barely hit? Anyone else met this guy?

14 hours in and two more free ships... [Screenshot]

So, on top of the two free little ships I'm still trying to figure how to repair (where do you get platinum FFS!!) I pop into a new system, and see baddies, so give them a good hiding, and a captain invites me aboard a freighter they were attacking. There will be a reward! Ooh, maybe a nugget, or 20 nanites.... Nope. He gives me the freighter. For nothing. And it comes with a frigate.

Lost main save because of expedition? [Question]

I think I’ve just lost my main save because the Relics expedition ended while I was midway through. My main save with hundreds of hours worth of progress.

I started the expedition via the anomaly like usual, but I didn’t play to the end of it and haven’t logged in for a few weeks. After logging in today it said the expedition is over and my save will be converted to a normal save. The problem is it’s just gone and overwritten my actual save that I had started the expedition with. All my stuff gone and I’m just left as I was in the expedition.

Is there anyway to get back to my proper save or has it just royally screwed me?

Character photo shoot! ❤️ [Screenshot]

Show off your best player & ship combos! Or just individual ships / character models. I'm excited for anything.

I'll start first with my new "Gambler's Dice" ship. I fabricated it yesterday and I just HAD to make a matching player model. I went for something rich and fancy, like a high profile trader with a lot of Units to spend. The second photo is my beloved "Oumuamua" Hauler ship. With my Space pirate model. (I'm pretty proud of this one). Pretty self explanatory here, I'm a criminal and I dang well look like it. The last one is my Tiny "Boxfish" ship. I'm a lover of shuttles! Especially small ones. And I was lucky to have found this amazing piece in what is now my home system! The model posing with it is my idea of a space miner. It's my oldest player model and the only one I wear when driving around the shuttles I've collected.

My base disappeared, reappeared, and now belongs to nobody, apparently? [Bug]

I was building a low orbit base on a planet when I realized that I could no longer build furniture; any and all furniture would delete itself when I reloaded a save.

Regular walls, floors, and roofs would still save, but furniture didn't stay there. after troubleshooting I found out that height and pretty much any other possible issue that could have eviscerated my furniture wasn't the problem, so I deleted the base and base computer, and started to rebuild at that same location from scratch.

After placing the new base computer, I wanted to see if the furniture issue still arose, so I placed a couch and save beacon, saved, and reloaded my newest save.

That was when I was met with my deleted base reappearing like a ghost. Everything was there including the hundreds of couches I placed to experiment with the furniture problem originally; a sea of red couch cushions.

So I wanted to find out if my old base computer was still there, and it was, but to my abject horror it for some reason said I didn't "have construction permissions". So I looked a bit closer and saw that when you walk up to it it says "last edited by" with no name to be seen.

It the base saved to the old computer or the new one? I can still build in the base because of the new base computer I built, but the old computer and everything that was there before can't be edited. What can I feasibly do in this situation other then just start over somewhere new

Living Ship Customization Idea – After Finishing the Mission, Let Us Modify Them! [Question]

I finally finished the Living Ship mission and I love my ship, but I think players should be able to get more versions or customize their living ship after completing it once. The grind is way too long, and since there are different designs and colors, it would be great to unlock a fabricator or some kind of customization tool that lets us change features and colors without having to do the whole thing again.

Music suggestions to listen to while playing (for Millenials / Gen X) [Question]

Hey all,

I’m wondering if you guys have some good suggestions for music to listen to while playing... something more on the chill side so I can just grind away and kind of get lost in the serenity of it all.

I used to listen to the Flight of the Navigator soundtrack until they took it off of Spotify (can't even find it on iTunes to buy), so I’m looking for something with more or less the same vibe. The older, the better.

Thanks in advance. This game (and by extension, this community) is by far my all time favourite.

As a brand new player, I got stuck in a multi hour sidequest leading a settlement on a miserable planet. I feel like this shouldn't happen, thoughts? [Discussion]

I, as a brand new player, responded to a distress call on an ugly green, miserably toxic planet, multiple systems from my base (though it did have pretty rings). This led to me being in charge of a settlement thing. And I find out apparently it loses me a bajillion dollars like every day, so now instead of doing my normal missions I desperately try to get to a point where I can quit being overseer. Well turns out that takes like 3 hours of waiting. 3 hours later I go to quit but now I'm in this sentinel quest thing which means I still can't quit. And so far the quest thing has actually been 90% fun except for that I'M ON THIS DUMBASS UGLY TOXIC FAR AWAY PLANET. I actually got a settlement on my own planet in the hopes it would replace the other one, but that didn't work and now I'm kinda devastated I didn't get to do this really cool mission on my really pretty planet.

Aaanyway it's not the end of the world, I just felt like I got forced into something when the rest of the game is so open. After being in the settlement a while, I don't think it's actually taking my money, which is good but was not clearly communicated in my opinion. Either way, I feel like I shouldn't be able to stumble into becoming town mayor without the ability to quit.

New player, but I love how helpful and charitable players can be [Discussion]

Early on in my playthrough and first entering the Space Anomaly, I noticed players randomly giving away stuff like Salvaged Data, Exosuit expansions, etc from time to time, myself included, even without asking.

Much later, I was really struggling to find Salvaged Frigate Modules and I decided to ask if anyone had any they'd want to maybe trade for; even for just 2 modules, only for a player to come up and give me 15 modules, not even asking for anything in return.

It's not often you find games with communities as charitable and willing to help (without them being full of hackers or duplicators lol). But the more ive been playing, the more i've tried doing the same; giving away useful stuff I don't need in the Anomaly to new and old players.

It's honestly this kind of community that makes me love No Man's Sky all the more :D

New Player - Absolutely love the game but need inventory help after nearly 100hrs. [Question]

I am blown away by how great this game is.

I just have one major pain point - inventory management. (Yes I have freighter, all containers, max starship slots, quite a big exosuit inventory, even have infinite transfer distance on).

I have played at least a dozen other games with far superior UI and quality of life for sorting, storing, organizing.

Are there mods that add QoL like “transfer all similar items”, “smaller icons”, or even something like skyUI or StarUI if you’re familiar with those.

I’m finally learning what items are good for high end crafting and all that. Still have a bunch of undiscovered minerals/resources I think though.

It just feels like most of my time is spent fucking around with transferring things here or there so every inventory isn’t just a giant mess of shit.

I love this game and see myself playing it for a very long time, but I have to find a better way to do inventory management.

Help?

Sean Suggestion here [Suggestion]

it would be a great expedition reward- a scanner upgrade for the ship that gives unlimited anomaly detection… Maybe you make it so that only one can be used per save so that forces people to assign a designated anomaly hunting ship… Just in general it would make the game cooler if we did more tweaking what the different ships can be used for more effectively… I mean it’s great how you have more storage in the hauler and hovering in the sentinel ship maybe you have a ship that’s just naturally better for scanning and then you give that expedition reward

So uh... How do I fix this [Bug]

So, I was on a planet exploring and cataloguing as you do (in fact the last planet in this system) when I noticed the entire star system had vanished from my discoveries catalogue. Everything is gone. All the discoveries on said planets still exist as shown here, but the ONLY way for me to access them is to physically land on the planet and open this tab. Other than that they don't exist, the planets don't exist, the entire star system doesn't exist, but only in the discoveries catalogue. It's still there in the galaxy Map and I can warp to and from it no problem, and any other system I enter doesn't have this problem. The space station's warp gate still shows up when I try to warp to it and it lets me, but the entire system is seemingly erased from all discovery tabs.

I've tried everything I could think of, going from planet to planet, landing at settlements, quitting the game and reloading, loading a new star system and going back, everything. Normally it wouldn't be such a big deal but I have a (I believe story) mission in this system and I can't seem to progress it without the system showing up.

TL;DR Something Count Dookued my star system and I can't figure out how to undo it.

Unable to leave combat despite being in a hole for 20 minutes [Question]

This happened 3 times lately.

I am in a dissonant planet and after killing a Dissonance Resonator the sentinels go after me. I try to flee, but the combat never ends. No matter how far I go or how well I hide.

I burrowed a hole, got inside and closed everything around me. Just to test, I left the game running for 20 minutes and the combat is still active.

Since we can't summon the ship while in combat, this nuisance became an actual problem. The only solution is to close the game, maybe risking losing some recent progress.

Have anyone experience this and know how to solve?

This flickering since Beacon update has STILL not been fixed. [Bug]

This has been a problem since the Beacon update and I have posted in the past and commented here about it. Others have posted about this as well but the posts are not popular. No graphic options, mods/lack thereof, restart, or reinstallation fixes the issue. I have tried changing reflections to standard, shadows to low/high, default FOV, anti aliasing on/off (like native, FSR, DLSS, XeSS). Nothing stops it.

There is a second way worse flicker issue where in your ship everything around you flickers which I have not seen occur yet with latest patch today so maybe it was fixed? Idk because the patch notes say only for Intel/AMD on today's patch for "flickering".

Here is the under water flicker that has existed as well since Beacon update, and unfortunately I can confirm today's update did not fix it, at least not for me. I hope more people come to raise awareness because I have been dealing with these flickering issues for over 1 month, and this is my daily game I like to play!

Please upvote this and report it to the Zendesk website if you can so that Hello Games becomes aware of it. I don't care for karma I just want to stop closing my eyes everytime I walk by water or get in my ship in my favorite game (300+ hours) 😭.

Is there a difference between raiding freighters in pirate vs normal systems [Question]

I'm trying to farm up some salvages frigate modules and it has me thinking, why would I ever bother attacking ships in a normal system

In pirate systems I don't have to worry about sentinels and I can make absolute bank off all the contraband I'll loot

So is there anything doing this is a normal system would actually give me or is it just objectively better to continue in a pirate system

Multiplayer gone on Xbox X after update [Bug]

Hello all, does anyone else have this issue? Multiplayer, i.e. Network has disappeared from the options menu, the Anomaly is empty. My Xbox X is fully updated, never had any issues whatsoever. I already tried reinstalling NMS several times. What gives?

Patch 5.74 and returning "home" ?? [Question]

I noticed this item inside the patch notes: Implemented a recovery for players who had travelled a very long distance from the first purple system generated during In Stellar Multitudes, and had no nearby teleporter destinations to return to.

This one sort of intrigues me - I have started the game after patching but didn't immediately find anything related to this recovery. I, like many of you, are probably a LONG way from "our" system that was generated. I can't find any other references to this - anyone have thoughts?

Are gas giants a thing [Answered]

I also thought of NMS has at least a little scientific but no matter what, I can't find gas giants. I'm on my second galaxy and still have yet to locate one

Need help getting my OG ship [Question]

So I abandoned my OG ship pretty early, figured if I find a crashed one either sell it or I have a good ship. Anyway eventually I decided to get a Sentinel ship and left the OG ship on the planet. I now have a freight ship and it’s in storage, is there anyway I can get it without going all the way back to the planet I left it on?

This WAS My Starship Garage... [Screenshot]

Latest update moved everything in the settlement around, destroyed the floors, and just generally made the base unusable. Now, I did glitch in the base to build into the settlement, so I'm not really shocked... just annoyed and maybe a bit over building in this game. It's done this to my freighter bases a handful of times, and that's without glitches or tricks. Whole worlds have changed and so on. I've started over those builds before. But this one... I really loved building it and I guess I wasn't ready to see it broken by patches/updates/whatever.

I was exited to maybe share it one day. Got a spot for upholstery. Made a working vending machine in the back. Doghouse out in the shipyard. Kinda bummed out. Yeah... think I'm gonna put this game down a long while... Anyway, thanks for taking a look. waves

Nitpicking [Discussion]

I'm sure this sub has heard this before and I'm also sure you know where this is going but I just want to say my piece.

I'll start off by saying I'm aware of the horror stories about launch, and I'm super impressed with how far the game has come. I've only been playing for about 6 months off and on (85 hour save give or take) but it's definitely one of my favorite games to come back to.

HOWEVER

The last thing I want is to seem ungrateful for what's been done, but there are multiple unresolved bugs that impact my enjoyment of the game more than some new features. They're not game-breaking or anything and I feel like I'm pretty tolerant of working around some bugs, but it's still annoying that stellar extractors and AMUs just don't work sometimes, or that items in refiners disappear if you log off before collecting them. (Can you tell all of these things have happened to me in the past like day or so)

Personally, my dream update isn't even one that adds any game features or graphics updates or any of that, I would be more than happy with a full update of just squashing some of these under the hood bugs.

Multiplayer failed to join lobby [Question]

Hello everyone, I have recently bought no man's sky from steam after following the game since release in 2016 and I have been having a blast with it.

I have put around 50 hours into the game so far but I never met any other players in the anomly which I didn't think much of it for a while but a few days ago I convinced a friend to buy the game so we can play together but when I tried to join his session it would give me the error of failed to join lobby or it would say connecting for a while then nothing happens or the session disappears from the list.

I did some research and found out that I might be having an issue with multiplayer as its not common to never meet anyone in the anomly as well. After searching around I found that some people encountered the same issue, some found solutions that worked for them and others didn't and the thread just dies out.

Things I have tried so far after searching around: - made sure all multiplayer settings in the network tab are enabled but this was already the default. - synced up the date and time and set everything to automatic on my pc. - tried having my friend join my session instead and still didn't work. - turned off windows defender firewall for private and public networks. - added an outbound rule in windows defender to block ipv6 for no man's sky. - used a hotspot from my phone instead of wifi. - deleted the TKGAMESETTINGS.MXML file from the game files. - deleted all .MXML files.

I don't remember what else I tried but that should cover most of the solutions I found online but still nothing works.

For reference I play other online games like fortnite and battlefield 1 and they work just fine. Sometimes I get small spikes of internet lag but its still perfectly playable so I am totally lost here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Pillar of Light world, Fauna included [Screenshot]

Found this planet in the budullangr galaxy. Seemed pretty standard for a pillar of light planet while I was landing until i noticed the Fauna were also pillars of light...? Thats a first for me.

The colors of this planet are pretty cool too, and to top it off the space station has a Merchant guild that gives cargo bulkheads as well as some pretty solid S class upgrades from the starship vendor and the exosuit vendor.

Hope yall enjoy!

About ships and slots.____. [Question]

Hi there everyone.I've been playing for days😅 so I'm kinda lost on this one: I made this ship from scratch, it's my first S class, but when I compare it to other C class ships I can buy from NPCs the slots #s are basically the same, in most cases just 1 more, idk if it's bad luck in some kind of dice roll when I created it or it's related to the part I picked to create it, anyway, could you explain this to me please?

Water (and other kinds of ) Giants! [Question]

I have seen a Paradise Giant, and I have heard other Travelers are looking for Water Giants. Do we know if all kinds of giants only spawn in Gas Giant labeled systems, or has anyone figured anything out about how to hunt them so far?

First Exotic! [Screenshot]

I'm fairly new compared to a lot of people, I've only been playing for about a month. Today I found my first exotic while doing story quests and I couldn't have asked for a better looking one! Finding this definitely renewed my sense of excitement for the game (though it wasn't fading too much).

How do I get the Anomaly [Question]

1st time running an Abandoned Universe game. How to I trigger the Space Anomaly? Do I have to make a jump or can I just stay in my starter system. I would like to stay, so that I can complete everything in it.

Strangest Planet I’ve Come Across [Screenshot]

Not visually, of course, at least not right away.

Xaphnomc Alpha.

It’s a cold planet with firestorms. Only flying fauna, and only 5 species. Lots of salvageable scrap. I didn’t even notice anything amiss for the longest time, as I was happily just harvesting scrap. It wasn’t until I was a good twenty minutes from my shop and night set in that things got weird.

First it was the sounds. There were many valleys and caverns and caves on the surface, and while the day was tranquil, night brought a dissonant symphony of animal cries, growls, and shrieks from every crack and dark maw in the surface.

I actively began avoiding anything that resembled a cave entrance or a deep valley.

Then I realized something that unnerved me. I had been scanning minerals and plants for twenty minutes as I traversed the planet, and I was still finding new plants and minerals.

They didn’t seem to end. Something about that realization sent a chill down my spine.

Anyway, I got out of there after that. I could hear the sounds of earth moving beneath me, and it just wasn’t worth it to me to stick around.

Some mysteries are better left unexplored.

W.I.P Freighter Build [Video]

This is my redesigned Freighter base build with new areas seperated into visitor and crew areas. I still have more plans like adding full shops to the third floor of the "mall" and a bar and club to the fourth floor.

Chart makers [Bug]

Every time I use a settlement chart (or any other chart for that matter.) it always just marks the same place her system. For example, when I’m using settlement charts and I find a one I don’t like but it’s on a good planet, I use another one so I can find a different settlement on the same planet. But it always just marks the same one. Is there a different way to find good settlements?

Back here again with the living ship, need help [Question]

I put in the correct coordinates(I checked 3 times before putting them in and I put them in multiple times), went into the portal, came out, and instead of it being like in the videos I watched, it said this:(picture)

I went to multiple planets and nothing changed, but when I checked my galaxy map, the system I am in does show the void egg icon, I don’t know what to do now

NMS Community on Twitch [Question]

Major Multiplayer Bug fixed? [Question]

I've been playing this game on and off for a few years since launch and have had many encounters with other players over the years in the Anomaly.

However, when trying to connect with friends on the same platform not met through the Anomaly we used to encounter a huge bug where my friends in co-op could explore my worlds, the system, galaxy etc. but couldn't see my character even if right next to them.

This had been a major reason for why I haven't gotten back into the game, but with the game still being updated over the years, I'm hoping these issues have been fixed.

Tl;dr: Multiplayer bug when someone joins your game and they can't see you at all but can see your structures. Has this been fixed?
