Exploring the vast (void) of space [Suggestion]

Some people feel like NMS space is too crowded and lost a bit the "outer space" feeling. Abandoned setting was introduced as a way to counter that. I tried it, and it's a bit too restricting in my opinion. An easy improvement would be that players could control how many systems should be abandoned, maybe in 10% steps?

For those of you who were also tempted by abandoned setting, but found it a bit too restricting, I have a ruleset that you can use for self-restriction in other modes, which will give you a different experience than abandoned setting, but still make NMS space feel more like a journey through the vastness of outer space: empty type of galaxy like #7 Budullangr
no teleporter use (can use until you are at the desired galaxy)
no double instances of storage containers (can use all 10 containers, but only 1 of each number)
no summoning freighters or ships unless freighter is in same system and ship is on same planet
for an even more "challenging" experience, play without a freighter at all (optional)

I know this sounds like it would just make you stare more at warp loading screens instead of teleporter loading screens, and make you wait much more because pulse drive use is increased, and it does not only sound like it, that's exactly what happens. To minimize this, you have to change your mindset and get to know your surroundings much better and start to plan ahead for any goals you want to pursue (so it's not recommended for new players, because they don't know what's possible and how they have to chain things to reach a certain goal). Especially if you play without freighter, it becomes a journey of travelling from base to base to pick up the stuff you need and finally put it together at the target destination.

Note that you are allowed to use portals, but rule #4 means you can't bring your ships or freighters across, so you will first have to find a...

There has to be some sort of trick to prevent dirt from filling back in for bases. [Screenshot]

So about 3+ years ago I build a base in a cave, but I expanded the cave a bit. Most if not all attempts previous to that, it filled back in at some point. However, while I was playing all those years ago, it didn’t fill back in.

Just recently, I started playing again after that 3 year break. My base is STILL FINE. That said, my brother was trying to dig today, and it was filling back in minutes later.

Things to consider: •I think I only used the flatten feature when I dug out my base •there was already an existing cave that I just expanded a bit •I didn’t put in much for ceilings, and only put walls where I felt like cave walls didn’t look good •I think I was alone while digging, so not sure if that makes any difference for rendering or anything •I put in a bunch of trees and plants

Has anyone found a consistent way? I’m going to try again myself to just burrow out a hole, put some floors in maybe, and come back to it to see what happens. I’ll put it in the comments when I find out.

Trade Guilds [Question]

What has happened to the guilds and items they are selling? I haven't used them for a while, maybe since the expedition before the last. I know it worked that if you teleported out and back a guild would reset if anything was redeemed. I just redeemed my freeloader free items and jumped multiple systems, just revisited where I picked up my freebies and they are still grayed out. I thought maybe the game updated to a 24 hour timer, but I'm past that time frame. Do I need to donate to that specific guild in that specific station to reset or is this just life now?

Finding My Old Bases/Planets [Question]

My save got deleted somehow a week or so ago now and I've come to terms with that, but I want to see about visiting my old bases and such. Is there a way I can revisit them, without knowing the glyphs? I can try to see if I have any screenshots with them in the corner but I don't think I do, and I really would like to revisit my old home and planets.

If I do have to know the glyphs, are there any methods to finding the glyphs?

So I reached the center of the universe and then the game broke itself [Bug]

I got to the center and got put on a new planet in the new galaxy, and as soon as i begun the initialisation, I noticed the really strange visual bug. I'm not super good with technical names for these things but i think this is stuttering? Frame tearing? Anyway, even despite that, I don't have any ferrite dust and the mining beam is damaged meaning i don't have a way to get any ferrite dust so im potentially stranded. Anyone got any advice on how to get some to get off this planet and more importantly fix this visual issue? I'm on ps5 btw and haven't had any issues like this on nms over my 40 hours of playtime. Gamma and motion blur are default, prioritising framerate and im not using 120hz display mode (idk if any of that info is important or helpful)

Question regarding achievements and changing difficulty [Question]

I've played most of this game in 'Normal' difficulty, and I've started playing only since last month. I recently changed some difficulties to make myself get free slots on my ships(it costs way too much to fully get the slots in Survival). I've gotten like 78% achievements of the game, only ones missing are the 'Extreme Survival', 'Planet Zoology' and both the 'Reach Galactic Centres' achievements.

Am I now locked out of getting the Normal achievements in my current save? Do I need a new save file to get those achievements? Or can I just revert the settings and I'll be fine for the Normal achievements?

I didn't reset the Atlas, what now ? [Question]

So confused, it says I can reset again but all the posts I have read say I can't. What now if I do the Atlas path storyline, have I an opportunity again ?

No Mans Sky is a DLC spam and people fell for it [Information]

It's really funny to see that when a dozen or more DLCs were released for a shit game, gamers cry in tears and praise it to the sky while the core gameplay of said shit game never changed a bit.

I mean it is quite nice when a game studio publishes DLCs frequently for free while other AAA games do micro transactions; however after a few DLCs from said nice game studio you would probably start asking if the DLCs actually improved the game? No Mans Sky introduced no less than a dozen new mechanisms but none of them can sustain more than 5 minutes of gameplay. There are so many items in game now it stopped making any sense.

These gulliable gamers entertains me. Prasing No Mans Sky for its legendary comeback is really no different from those who preorder AAA titles fearing that digital copies would run out. They are all dumbfucks.

Galactic Smuggler help? [Question]

So im assuming im doing something wrong here.

I should be losing money while smuggling goods, yeah?

Started with almost 50 mil, spent every last credit buying up smuggled goods and some other things (which i dont think added up to the missing money) and im out of smuggled goods and only have 29 million to show for it.

I bought every suspicious package along the way too, but that will mostly translate to nanites I think.

Aeron protocol? [Question]

I’ve had a sweet A-class alien ship for a while but yesterday I found an S-class alien ship and wanted to transfer my stuff to it.

This is when I encountered the message ”Aeron Protocol rejects alien technology”. But this seems strange because I could install anything on to my old alien ship, see photo.

What are the limitations of the Aeron protocol?

🏴‍☠️ [Discovery] I Captured a Pirate Dreadnought Freighter in No Man’s Sky — Here’s How I Did It (No Mods [NMSTG Hub Region (xxxx01DDF571)]

Hey fellow Travellers,

After years of playing No Man’s Sky, I’ve just discovered something I didn’t think was possible — I seized a pirate dreadnought, made it my capital freighter, and can now warp it freely across systems. No mods, no save edits, no glitches. This is real, and it happened in vanilla game conditions.

And yes — it shows as “YOUR CAPITAL SHIP”, fully functional.

⚙️ How I Did It

I wasn’t even trying to pull this off. Here’s the exact method I used: 1. Warped 5–6 times, ending up in an Outlaw system 2. Encountered a pirate dreadnought attacking a system freighter 3. Ignored the usual prompt to attack the shields 4. Instead, I did something different: • First, I attacked the dreadnought’s engines in the back • Then I destroyed all the anti-freighter cannons 5. After the final cannon was destroyed, the dreadnought surrendered 6. I was given the option to claim it as my capital ship 7. Now it’s mine — fully warp-capable and marked as “YOUR CAPITAL SHIP”

Breeze Bay: The Bastion of Lord Brisebaie (Because Supervillains Like It Cozy Too) [Video]

Lord Brisebaie built his lair atop the cliffs of Breeze Bay, hoping to inspire fear.

It had a spooky name, a dramatic fog machine, and a laser shark.

But he also added heated floors. And a tea station. And 47 throw blankets.

Word got out !

Supervillains started arriving, not to plot evil, but to relax.

Baron Burnout booked a weekend for "me time".

Countess Chaos brought her cat.

Even The Menace Twins came, just for the scones.

Soon, the Bastion was less "fortress of doom" and more "spa with capes".

Lord Brisebaie never ruled the world… but he did invent villainous glamping.

Came back from pre-order [Discussion]

I was an original pre-order player when the game release happened and frankly I even kinda liked the game then but the burn was real. Watched the game slowly update over time, even played with a friend for a day when the NEXT update dropped but just never actually got into the game. Always kept a sorta view from the outside watching the game develop.

Finally started playing seriously two weeks ago and to say I'm hooked is an understatement. Hell I'm more excited about getting my living ship today or showing off my full autophage traveler than I've been about any game in months. I feel like I can't stop finding new cool stuff only to find something even cooler around the corner. Even just taking my butterfly companion for a flight across some random planet for no other reason than to look around. I know it's said so much but seriously what an amazing experience.

What happens when you go through a portal? [Question]

I used a portal for the second time, the first time I had the ship's launch thrusters damaged when I arrived on the planet, the second time I spawned on the planet without my ship and with a bug that prevented me from placing buildings on the planet. Did the ship indicate it was out of reach? Is this a bug? As well as the impossibility of placing a basic computer? Or is it related to the fact that there was no my ship on the planet and the impossibility of recalling it?

Infinite Salvaged Frigate Modules [Information]

Maybe this is old news for you but I found a freighter crash site with 2 sfms, built a base on it, and I figured out one of the 2 sfms kept respawning. I even placed a srt close to the cargo pod for faster farming. So now I port to the base, grab the sfm, hit the save point, reload and repeat. If you didn't know that trick, now you do! 😁

Building an interface for a planet coordinate app - progress with A-frame/three.js/svelte [Fan Work]

I still need to add some more HUD elements for planet data and I need to wire up the svelte components to change dynamically based on state.

I found a system named "yes, this is my system". [Screenshot]

I went to a featured base in the Isdoraijung galaxy and started to explore around. I was looking in the galaxy map and warping to whatever system sounding coolest and found one called "yes, this is my system". I've never seen any system named anything other than some gibberish, so this was super weird.

Going through a divorce and this game has helped take my mind off things this past year [Screenshot]

190 hours in a couple of months. I have found it really addictive!

While making the Stasis Devices, I noticed a glitch where you can craft twice as much (+100% for free). Crafting the item must take place in the Roamer though as far as I can tell. It has to be the Roamer and I believe that the constituent pieces must also be in the Roamer. I have not tested this to the nth degree but so far it has not failed as long as you follow these instructions.

I can't find this being mentioned anywhere on the internet so apologies if I am mistaken and this is already known. I'm on PC btw.

In order to take full advantage, it's best that any surplus items do not interfere. So, load up your Roamer, put the surplus on your Starship and get out of its range before you spawn in your Roamer and start crafting. I would also avoid having any of the items that are part of the recipe in your Freighter (unless you do not have that upgrade which enables long distance item transfer).

It's best explained with some examples:

We know that 250 Nitrogen + 50 Condensed Carbon = 1 Nitrogen Salt.

You would expect that 5,000 Nitrogen and 1,000 Condensed Carbon would make 20 Nitrogen Salt but with the Nitrogen and the Condensed Carbon in the Roamer, clicking on an empty slot in the Roamer to begin crafting the Nitrogen Salt will make you 40. This blows up quickly so you will need the slots made available to take full advantage - space for the Nitrogen, Condensed Carbon and also the Nitrogen Salt all in the Roamer. If you have lots to do I recommend repeating it multiple times because here is how it can go wrong/get inefficient:

Having 5,000 Nitrogen and 1,500 Carbon would yield the 40 Nitrogen Salt but use up all 1,500 Carbon. It's as if any surplus gets eaten up along the way.

And it works all the way up a crafting tree. I wish I...

How to obtain a Sentinel Interceptor. [Question]

Hello everyone. The issue is as stated in the title. I've read a lot of posts from this year and last year, but I'm wondering if that information is 100% up to date. Currently, I keep running the dissonance search in one harmony camp, hunting for class S - will doing so put me in a kind of loop of the worst variants, because I will exceed or use up some invisible limit of chances for the best variants? Or if I am patient, will I eventually get class S from this one camp? I am asking because so far I have only found class C, even though I am doing it in the pirate dissonance system with a yellow star. How many sentinels do I need to change camps? Is the colour permanently assigned to the planet, or is there a chance for a different colour version over time? In two days, I earned 1,000,000,000 units, and there was no sign of an S class. In dissonance systems with a 3-star economy (research and high technology and mining), I found interceptors from classes C to A. But not a single S class. I don't have access to glyphs, and I don't want to take a ready-made version from the internet in a given location, but rather find the top version of the ship myself.

Please help me.

Tips on ship building? [Question]

It has been quite a tedious process for me. I’m trying to build a cool looking solar ship. I’m trying to collect all of the components so I can have full access to all parts. Also, sometimes a find a cool part for another ship type, and those make it even harder to tell which parts are for the solar ship.

The sails are easy because there are only 3 of them. For everything else it’s hard to tell which parts I already have without going to the ship builder to check. I know they’re in my inventory, but it’s hard to compare that thumbnail to what I’m looking to salvage. It’s harder to do on solar ships because they are usually from pirate systems.

I also wish they didn’t take up inventory, but instead went into some kind of memory bank, but there’s nothing to do about that.

Salvaged Freighter Modules? [Question]

I've been trying to hunt freighter modules to unlock things for my fleet but I am having next to zero luck. Of the 3 I've managed to find, 2 came from fleet missions and 1 came from a nexus mission.

I've tried searching through fleets on pirate systems but after checking dozens and dozens of pods I've never seen one with modules show up.

I keep reading that crashed freighters on planets usually have between 1 and 4 each, but I've been to quite a few and haven't found any. All I see in those wrecks are 2 rooms you can blast into that have big storage containers you open with a 2 lock release but those so far have always had really lackluster rewards (a few nanites, some mats, etc).

Am I missing something obvious in those wrecks? Somewhere else you can go inside?

Did a space derelict freighter too where you go inside and it, too, ended up having no modules that I found.

Any help would be appreciated! :)

Base parts vanishing? [Bug]

Has this happened to anyone? Built these lights on this small tower, and when I walk away and come back (didn't even leave the base) they all disappear. Happened twice so far with these lights so this one I recorded. It also happened when I was building on an electromagnetic site with this base, but I figured maybe because I was way out of the base limits (something I've also done a ton of times) and those kept vanishing too. I've seen this with people's sky bases because they're too high up, but I'm on the ground. Possibly because I'm building in a settlement? But I've built in a bunch of settlements and this has never happened. Been playing since 2020 and I've never had base pieces vanish before

Well that’s Not Fair [Question]

This is a new player question.

I found this alien weapon on the space station in the Nishim System in the Hilbert Galaxy. Actually there were two identical ones same style and class in the cases.

As you can see it is a Class B and only has one supercharged slot showing. I used four augs to fill in the holes and find the other SC slot. As a B it maxes out at 30. Shouldn’t it show the other SC slot? Do you have to upgrade it to A class just to see where it is.

I know I can restore upgrade and then reload restore point but you still need 75k nanites to see but seems weird you would have to.

HELP. Returning travel looking for first freighter [Question]

Hello fellow travelers I’m a returning player and just got back into No Man’s Sky after a long time away 8+ years. I recently finished the mission where you find the broken ship and now I’d really like to dock it into a freighter… but here’s the thing:

I don’t even have a freighter yet.

I’ve been watching YouTube videos and trying to follow guides, but most of them seem way outdated (pre-Interceptor update or even earlier). There’s been so many updates since I last played that I’m honestly overwhelmed.

So a few questions for anyone up-to-date with current NMS mechanics: 1.What’s the most reliable and current method to trigger the free freighter event in 2025? 3. Any early-game tips to make the freighter hunt smoother or faster?

I’m not looking for exploits or cheats—just valid, current advice that actually works post-update. Appreciate any help from the veteran travelers out there!

Thanks in advance, and see you in the stars.

Unable to restart mission system [Bug]

Got my free freighter. Hours later the second one to show up also showed free? [Question]

Found out a little too late but I do like the one I got so I wasn’t upset. Seems I got lucky with the A class I think.

Fast forward several hours later and I run in to another pirate battle after I warp. I board the freighter to collect my reward and compare stats just to see how much it would cost. It showed free? Is this a bug? I had just collected my first freighter for free already so why would this one be free? I ended up going with the cash reward since the second one was a C class and I like mine.

But I guess I’m confused because everything I read said only your first one is free and after that they cost tens of millions. Also even though it’s a lower class it was worth more than my current freighter. Did I goof by choosing the cash reward and not swapping them?

Does The Dream Aerial only ever work ONCE/save? Dude... [Question]

Title. 1st playthrough. I made one some time ago, 'cause I was all like "woah, COSMIC MEGAGAUNA?!?", turned out to be frigates. "Ah, okay", I said.

Now it's been a little while later, and I really want more cosmic whale boys, and I got the resources to build 4½ Dream Aerials - which didn't work - then built the 5th on a different system. Still didn't work.

Could it be that maybe they just don't work in Outlaw systems? I've been hopping between those exclusively, lately.

Best starship to build for an all-arounder? [Question]

Need advice for Music themed planet… [Question]

Hey all,

So for some reason I’ve really been into bytebeat cover tracks lately.

I found a YouTuber (Artisan) who makes a bunch of covers and adds the portal coordinates so that you can copy the songs.

I’ve been working on putting my favourite cover songs all on one planet so that they’re easier to get to.

I’ve noticed a few things though, and I’m hoping someone with experience can clear it up for me:

Should I put a save beacon at each base so that people can find them easier? I noticed Artisan puts one at each base they make, and the beacon shows up farther away than the base tag does.

Is there a cap to the number of bases one person can have on a planet?

I know there’s probably a ton, but who are the most notable bytebeat creators?

I tossed the portal coordinates in too in case someone can visit and let me know if the bases show up okay, or if I should add save beacons.

I’ve played this game for an insane number of hours, but I’ve never really dipped much into the bytebeat stuff until now. So far so good!

Can't unlock Autophage appearance after finishing the Echoes questline (PC/Steam) [Bug]

Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with the Echoes update. I've finished the entire Autophage questline and have interacted with all the NPCs, but the Autophage character appearance has not been unlocked in the customization menu.

I play on PC (Steam) and my username is Reaper001. I've already tried restarting the game and traveling to different systems, but the problem persists.

I've already contacted Hello Games support and am waiting for their response.

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this bug or if there's a known workaround or fix for it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

How to retrieve broke ship that disappeared? [Question]

I found a busted ship and was planning to do repairs on it because it’s better than my starter ship. So I built a base right next to it, and claimed it. It shows up on the quick menu but I can’t summon it because I hadn’t repaired those systems. And the big problem, it vanished from the planet. It’s not by the base I built and I don’t see it on the overhead compass hud.

Sentinel ships [Question]

Hi all. First time player here with only about 20 hours logged so far. Hoping you can please help me.

I watched a video showing you how to claim a sentinel ship but as I play on PS4 I'm not sure if the process still works.

I basically had to go to a planet with corrupted sentinels and destroy dissonance resonators until I got an echo locator. I must have spent at least an hour destroying 15 or more but I keep getting some sort of mirror instead and nothing else. I know when you scan a planet it no longer says "corrupted sentinels" as it changed to "dissonance detected", but I was wondering if the item I needed has also changed.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Can I rant? I want to rant. Frigates, amirite? [Discussion]

I’ve spent nearly thirty years in the armed forces in a seagoing service. You mean to tell me the HIGHLY COMPETENT CREW of an S-CLASS COMBAT FRIGATE can’t do basic damage control. (Literally the very first thing they do when you walk on board a Navy or Coast Guard vessel is hand you a basic damage control booklet and tell you to start studying.)

Hell, I’ll even provide the mats. Find some ToilGek with nothing to do and teach him how to weld so I’m not wasting my time chasing around your MYSTERIOUSLY EMPTY CAPITAL SHIP rewiring consoles like any basic ET3 straight out of A school should be able to do on his FIRST DEPLOYMENT.

(Also, to keep this from happening as much as possible, make sure your frigates match the mission, always send at least one support frigate, and make sure you always max out your fleet values at least two stars higher than the mission difficulty: 4 stars for two star missions, 5 stars for three, etc.)

I’m at the point where any craft that isn’t a support frigate and is rated below a B-Class that needs me to repair them is judged too incompetent to keep in my fleet, so I fire their ass and look for someone better at their job.

Settlement on same planet as Autophage settlement quest. Problems retiring as overseer. [Question]

Recently, ive just gotten back from a short hiatus. I finally started working on settlements and searched my home system for all of the settlements the maps would find. The maps kept repeating settlement locations, so I started to accept the overseer positions on other planets to see if one would pop up on my home planet. Of course I found out that I did not have a settlement on my, correction, moon. so I stuck with the three settlements I found.

This is where I ran into a problem. One of the settlement quests led me to an autophage settlement on a planet I already have a settlement on. Because of that, it would not allow me to become the overseer on the autophage settlement because I already had a settlement on that planet. I then left that location to retire as overseer on that planet settlement, and it is stating that I cannot retire. What milestone do I have to meet before I am able to retire from a settlement?

Expedition 5 in 2025 on PC, where's the beetles??? [Question]

So, I just started playing fairly recently (a couple weeks or so) and learned about all these cool expeditions that I missed out on. I've been using the "No Man's Sky Expedition Generator" to replay these old expeditions and it's been a lot of fun so far. Until now. I'm on expedition 5, Exobiology and I'm supposed to adopt a beetle pet and I can't find one for the life of me. The planets in all the old guides have changed and the systems aren't even the same for the rendevous. I don't have any of the portal glyphs otherwise I'd hop over to NMSCE and grab one. So, short of just wandering aimlessly looking for one or grinding out the portal glyphs what are my options? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

Why dont they allow a zoo? [Question]

It seems like it could be easy.

Create buildings (like the landing pad) where you could add individual species or multiple.

Maybe you could connect multiple of them to create a great zoo.

If they wanted to keep it more "natural", instead of small fenced areas maybe you could have "beacons" to create either triangles or rectangles with invisible fences where you could add multiple species for them to breed and live. Maybe you could only create zoos in paradise planets or add certain species only to their natural biome, requiring multiple zoos in diferent places.

Ive been playing this game for about 80 hours and finding cool animals is one of my favorite things (after fossil skeleton making lol). Maybe they want to keep the game politicaly correct without animals in prisons, but we already have pets and fenced animals (like that weird small criter moving in circles).

Don't forget to check in with your weapon specialist on your freighter [Information]

Whenever you have moved the freighter, it's worth while to check in with the friendly Vy'keen at your weapons terminal on your freigher and check the multitool on offer. Most times it will be the ordinary C class pistol or rifle, but today I got an A class white, large experimental MT. Type of MT, class and slot layout depend on position, hence it changes when the freighter is being moved.

I only started checking in with that guy recently and sometimes he got interesting stuff.

What do you want leading up to the Decennial Anniversary? [Discussion]

For starters, I am not a HG Developer. This is a question that I have seen around the subreddit during my time here. As the game turns nine years old later this week, I always wonder what is the next big thing is for the game. Worlds Part II was the most impressive update I have seen in the game so far, proving they can finally do the impossible. Will they continue creating game breaking features, redoing mechanics that have been left neglected for so long?

Here is what I wish for:

Revamped Space Conflict: The System Conflict was mainly known for how frequent you get attacked while you were in space in between places. While Outlaws made slight changes to Space Combat, it does need an overhaul for NPCs. How about when a system has high conflict, you actually see wars breaking out, NPCs fighting against each other, putting yourself in the middle of a hostile environment as you can get dragged into the middle of a space battle at any given moment. You can also pick a side if needed, which may shift the tide of the war and give you unique rewards based on the side you choose.

Stellar Remnants: They added Gas Giants, Stellar Remnants seem to make the most sense at this point. Add systems where planets orbit a white dwarf, where temperatures are super cold. Pulsars where planets are constantly bombarded with radiation, creating a new hazard for Dead Planets, causing you to take cover in this new hostile environment. Magentars, where it is a constant barren wasteland with nothing to see for miles, with magnetic flux increases causing your character to die if you aren't taking cover from these conditions.

Upgraded Weather Systems: While the new biomes are nice, the storms aren't suitable for the theme. Adding Ash Storms for volcanic planets or Rainstorms with the chance of flooding for Marsh/Swamp planets, you can see where I am going for the latter...

I bought the blueprint for them but they use material that I have never seen before. I am having trouble progressing the story because I don’t know how to get heat capacitors and the game will not allow me to work on another mission.

I have been trying to keep my idea under wraps until I worked out a plan for a build I’ve been working on, but I feel I should share it with some builders that are a bit more experienced than I am.

I recently made a base that you can teleport runaway mold with the short range teleporters. It is something that I have not seen done by anyone yet. I have built two beta testing sites so far with my idea. My goal was to be able to a mining beam across all of the runaway mold quickly, and not having to hit them one at time. If you hit them all at once, they will bunch up “funnel” and block other molds from hitting the bottom teleporters. So I decided to scale glitch, a teleporter three times the size over one of the runaway molds. I then realized that as soon as I hit the mold with the mining beam, it would automatically teleport and not even roll down the hill. Then I got the grand idea to make an even bigger teleporter with the scaled wire glitch. I would be able to place the teleporter over (or under!) an entire patch of runaway mold. However, a SRT that is bigger than three times, does not have a snapping point for the teleport cable. I can power it. I just can’t teleport. I’ve found some methods, but haven’t had much luck.

I wanted to have a classy, efficient runaway mold farm already to go before I posted much more about my idea, but I’d rather open the door to this idea instead being frustrated from my test trial fails, hahaha! So I figured I’d throw it out there and see what the community would come up with.

But just think about it… you run into a building protected from the weather. Shoot all of the mold out of a window. Teleport that mold instantly into a row on an incline or vertically (load the clip!) inside the building, And just turn and mine one at a time as the next one falls into place. Rinse and repeat!...

Questions by a not so expert traveler [Question]

I have decided to retry No man's sky two weeks ago (after playing only for some hours 2 years ago with a friend), and I didn't know anything about the game (I still don't know much) and more than 60% of facts and tips are from the community, (so thanks!) since the game doesn't explain directly anything, and for example, I uses refiners only to refine copper into chromatic metal and that's it. So, I came here on reddit on my first ever post to ask something like:

Since I've discovered mineral/gas extraction in a video, I have built some "farms" and I found out (like other people said) that using more than 4 extractors make all the extractors do individually less items, but at the same time I don't know how to do more than one "group" on the same spot without it connecting together or without making a mess with wires... So I am asking how i should do it.

For some reason, the background of text messages, interfaces and even the item's ones, just change textures and becomes a mess of images. I've already tried uninstalling and installing it, but sometimes it happens again. I don't have actually a photo, but I will do a screenshot when it happens.

Is it normal that my analytical visor show a different class, cargo and name everytime I re enter my freighter?

What are sentinels? I don't know a lot about sentinels and the story of the game, (I only know about their glass addiction), but they acts like the "law" and the "bad guys" at the same time. I can't understand how I lost one reputation with Korvaxs after destroying one interceptor, only to send me to destroy one mineral deposit ( if this is correct name in english) which is protected by them (which implies fighting them). Is it explained in the story? ( Since I replayed the game I only completed secondary missions)

I don't remember other questions, so thanks for now.

S or A class..? [Question]

I'm a new player and have been grinding for Nanites by doing missions and collecting data a.k.a. the painful way. I've gathered about 7.5k nanites so far. My goal is a little more than 10k so I can buy an S-class reactor to make a new ship.

I'm thinking of just going with an A-class because I'm honestly kinda tired of the grind, it's taking a while.

So my question is, is it worth it to grind those few extra thousand nanites or is A-class going to be good enough?

Is there anyway to access a Deep Ocean Planet without doing the long list of prerequisite quests? [Question]

I hop off and on NMS occasionally giving myself a fun goal to achieve when I decide to play, it's my way of enjoying the game. Now I decided I want to build a massive underwater base but the oceans on normal planets are so shallow. Found out ocean planets are the best bet but I have to do a bunch of prerequisite quests when all I want to do is enjoy some casual base building with this character. Is there anyway around this?

Any way to play side by side with a friend from the start? [Question]

Heard mixed reviews about multi-player in this game. Looking for a game with a big open world to explore, craft, build and progress thru with a friend. This game keeps coming up on our searches. Is there a wag to realistically play side by side with a friend or is it not really plausible? Neither of us really game solo.

Is there a round about way of starting the game with someone else and sticking together?

How to find my freighter? [Question]

Returned to this game after some time, and I was playing yesterday and was able to get to my freighter but picked it back up today and can't find it. I think I warped to a further away system, and it won't let me summon it in space or find it in the teleportation terminal. Any way of finding it?

In previous months I had no issue finding them, just seems I've hit a ridiculous dry spell.

When No Man's Sky gives the bare minimum.. (also question) [Screenshot]

This was my second unique-found Sentinel Interceptor (found out same Planet has same design, ect.). A natural S-Class. When I found this I yeet'd it right into my Ship Archive because it - while cute - is so.. boring.

Compared to my first unique-found Interceptor at A-Class, I didn't want to sacrifice a Starship for what looked to be a baby walker from Star Wars (never watched it, but still).

Overall, this was my third found Interceptor, and since then I've kept this tiny thing in my Ship Archive. I've been thinking about upgrading my A-Class into an S-Class, as it's been with me for a while. It has great placement thus far with Supercharged Slots. I have, however, found a new type of Interceptor that's wider and looks more like a fighter so I've been farming a Planet for it. I've farmed like.. 20+ Interceptors off it and acquired about three or four A-Classes, but mostly C-Classes. I heard that natural S-Class Ships may have SLIGHTLY better stats than an upgraded A-Class, so been trying to save about 60,000 Nanites (have about 45,000 now). I currently have two A-Class Interceptors in my Ship Archive of that model and one has an OK layout so far for Supercharged Slots, but not like my current Ship. Similar to posted, but one of the side Slots is next to the upper (or in the case of the screenshot - lower) Slot.

What do you guys think I should do?

I have grown fond of my current Ship, dubbed Aeron-5H4-D0W/29R (kept original format and named it Shadow, swapping the original 20/R with my age). I just don't like the baby blue, so the one I've been farming is more visually appealing in both colours and build.

My current Ship also has great placement for Supercharged Slots at A-Class, while the one I've been farming has somewhat acceptable placement. THEN there's the S-Class dubbed Baby Walker. It's a natural S-Class, but the Slots are eh....

How to mine deep sea mineral hotspots? [Question]

I'm currently in a waterworld and I found a lithium hotspot. Problem is that it is a buch of units above the seafloor, so I can't place extractors.

The only solution that I can think of is to build a base tall enough to put some platforms so I can then build extractors... but that would take A LOT of time, and I haven't tested if extractors work on structures built by players (I think it does...?)

Is there any solution for this? or should I just keep looking for another one?

Crafting system QOL [Question]

I'm a returning player after five or six years, I got it during launch and love how far this game has come. I'm surprised to see the crafting menu hasn't had any major improvements from what I can tell. No search function and I just have to scroll through six, seemingly random, items at a time.

Has there been any improvements that I'm missing? Like I consider this to be one of the worst crafting menus in video games and they haven't addressed it. It's puzzling to me.

Friend started playing, but I cant join their game [Question]

I know we have cross play and all. I play the Xbox version on my PC since that's where I bought the game. Being on PC, I don't need gamepass for multiplayer.

They bought it on their Xbox but don't have game pass... There's no menu option for Join Friends, and no Network option to toggle multiplayer in options.

Do they not have access to that on NMS unless they pay for game pass?

Planetary resource desynchronization [Bug]

Quick backstory for context. I started playing with a friend (his first playthrough). We reached broken starships, saved our games, and then connected for the first time. Everything was going smoothly. We followed the questline, left our starting planet, and we flew to some other planet to get blueprints for the Terrain Manipulator. That's when strange things happened.

He was experiencing storms very often, all while I had none. But we handled it and reached the point of gathering copper. We separated to don't to the same resource spot. I gathered my copper normally. And my friend gathered... activated copper. He even gave me some as a proof and that was indeed an activated copper. So I told him we should check the resource list under the Analysis Visor. I had:

https://preview.redd.it/5c8c1goo7ghf1.png?width=395&format=png&auto=webp&s=d4d49c18fdd26440a759f6ce1833f80e0090e0c5

and he had

If his game was treating this planet as the planet with the activated resource, that would explain those often storms he was experiencing. And that's how we both experienced that strange resource desynchronization, with us having two different kinds of copper on the same planet, and thus experiencing that planet differently too.

I suspect it is a bug, but should me and my friend be afraid that we will meet more of such desynchronizations in the future? Or this is a one-time thing?

A No Mans Sky Glitch. Pls help. [Bug]

Hi guys. I have been playing no mans sky a lot recently, but I've run into a problem. On the Atlas Eternal mission, where your supposed to present a wonder to the atlases, seems to be stuck. I have been to over 30 atlases now to present a wonder but the mission doesn't seem to be ending. I've tried using a save editor but there's no option to change missions, even in advanced tabs.

How do you choose where to put your settlements ? [Question]

Hi fellow No Man's Sky enthusiasts.

As a new update has dropped recently I'm back into the game one more time.

It seems settlements are useful now ! Yay.

How did you choose where to put yours ? Should you put them all in the same system as it increases it's economy, or scatter them on close systems with complementary economy, or guild types ? Or maybe even different galaxies for easy access ?

Thank you !

Dreadnaught factory in Euclid [Discussion]

Got these glyphs from someone else on redit. Didnt realuz3 thus before but there are 2 pirate owned systems right next to each other that I put bases on called, dreadnaught factory and s class drednaut. Wont be there long as I need the space, but you can warp between these 2 systems and a dreadnaught will spawn every time. It wont be an s class everytime but if you do it enough an s class will spawn. I checked it out. Cool thing is if you park your freighter in one of the systems before hand it will most likely attack or be attacked by the Dreadnaught.

Imagine if Genie 3 was integrated into No Man’s Sky... [Discussion]

I just read about DeepMind’s new AI model, Genie 3, and my brain instantly went to No Man’s Sky.

It’s a general-purpose world model that can generate dynamic, interactive environments from a simple text prompt. You type something like “toxic desert planet with crystal storms and underground caverns”, and it renders a playable, explorable world in real-time at 720p and 24fps , not a cutscene, not a video, but a simulation you can move through. The environments maintain consistency over time and respond to interaction.

Imagine if something like this was integrated into NMS. Instead of relying on seed-based procedural generation, we’d be able to describe what kind of world we want to explore, and the AI would build it on the fly. Each planet could be genuinely unique , not just in looks, but in behavior, structure, even emergent storytelling. The possibilities for exploration, questing, and base building would be endless, because the world wouldn’t just be generated , it would understand itself.

Hello Games has already done the impossible once. But if they ever tap into world models like this, we might be heading into the next era of sandbox gaming , one where the game universe feels like it's thinking with you.

Curious what everyone else thinks. Is this the kind of thing we might see in NMS someday?

Here’s the DeepMind blog if you want to dive in:

Just Curious [Question]

Hello fellow Travelers! 722 hours into the game right now, normal difficulty mode, and really enjoying it. However I feel I need to ask this question even though it is probably a very touchy subject. Being a single player based game, with various difficulty settings why do so many players find it necessary to use glitching or file editing to exploit the designed game mechanics. Being a game purist myself I have always believed that to play a game the way it was intended by the devs using the designed difficulty options is the truest way to play a game , even though that might not be the most enjoyable or real time sensible way to do so. It seems to me that this game has so many ways to " get around" established game mechanics that the majority of the player base fully expects a new player such as myself to start " cheating" the system from the get go. This is something that I personally don't know how to do, nor want to know how to do. I have seen to many instances in other games where this mind set has created an incredibly toxic and elitist player base......although I will have to admit I have yet to see that in NMS. Not trying to make anyone mad, just trying to understand, thank you all.

Freighter changed from sentinel to venator [Bug]

So I warped into a system and encountered a dreadnought attacking a sentinel freighter. I defeated the dreadnought and went inside it to claim the units. Then I flew over to the sentinel freighter and it had good slots and so I bought it.

I exchanged my freighter and swapped over the whole inventory and the technology. I wasn’t paying much attention and didn’t notice anything wrong with the little display of the ship/freighter that it has on the right. Then I flew out and destroyed the dreadnought idk why.

I was then going to warp to another system and looked at the freighter inventory and the model showed a venator freighter not a sentinel freighter, I was still in my ship outside of my freighter at this time and the freighter looked like a sentinel one. I thought maybe it was a bug and fueled the warp drive up and warped to an outlaw system. When I flew out of my freighter I saw had transformed into a venator.

Sorry about the long winded explanation but I wanted to recap everything I did in case that might have triggered something weird.

Has anyone else had this problem if so what did you do should I just find another freighter or will it revert back at some point

Base parts disappearing. Help. [Question]

I experienced the issue a few times before (an antenna or wall screen disappearing), but last night I placed a shitload of solar panels ( like over 30), then I left to buy some more ferrite for walls. I came back (via terminus) and only 4 solar panels remained. This is my first and only base and I have definitely not exceeded the parts limit. It's an orbital (built using the base computer zoom out method). I did some research and idk if it has something to do with being an orbital? I'm still in the planet atmosphere so idk how that would affect anything. Anyways I lost a lot of gold because of it. I'm only about 10 hours in as this is a brand new save. I've never experienced this issue in other saves. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you “reset” the planet where a task is already set? [Question]

I’m currently still on the main questline, looking for a holo-terminus to talk to null. I think the game usually just sets the task location (e.g., holo-terminus) on the planet/system you’re currently occupying. Unfortunately, mine got set to a highly toxic planet with aggressive sentinels that attack on sight literally the moment I get out of my ship. I honestly don’t know if I’m going to be able to move forward because as soon as I defeat the first bunch, they send more, and it’s too much to fight off much less look around for the holo-terminal at the same time. If I warp to another star system or something will it reset to a different planet or am I stuck with this one??

What's up with galaxies after 70? [Question]

It probably started happening before that, but it's becoming more frequent now. Every time i travel to a new galaxy, the little cutscene that plays that should show you exiting the galaxy doesn't show the stars. In previous galaxies, the stars were just shaking, but in these farther galaxies they're gone. Also, every time i look around in the galactic map while pressing the melee button, the stars shake. It didn't do it before, what's going on?

Autophage Settlement Hunting Scenes - featuring MOONS of gas giants… [Video]

Hello all you Travelers - I’m sure, or at least hope, that there has been celebration over the return of water to some moons… scarce as though it may be. Water on moons has been one of my most beloved parts of the game for some reason. I really think it was during the Atlas Rises era that I discovered that bases on moons with water just look fantastic….just one of my favorite things in game. Was really bummed when it went away. Not even sure exactly when? I knew at one point. Anyway.

Having really gravitated towards the Autophage and their lore during my current play through, I was excited by the announcement of settlements for them and for the overall settlement rehaul. But … I’ve been holding off on taking one on until I found a perfect location.

You know how you sometimes make make up our own quests and challenges? I decided to search for an Autophage settlement on a moon …of a gas giant…with water…in non-Gek system. 😅

I’m well into 60 hours searching lol (and yes I was spending some time on moons that had no settlements, but were tooo good not to check out). I could make a whole post about how challenging finding settlements in gas giant system has been in general… But suffice it to say, while I have found a handful of settlements on moons of gas giants… None of them have had very much surface water at all. But boy have I seen some pretty moons in the process! It really ignited exploring again for me.

So please enjoy this little montage of some of the places and beings I encountered. I think I am finally decided as to which settlement I’ll choose, as I can’t put off the itch to mess around with all of the settlement mechanics. 😅 Once I get building started, I’m planning on putting in together some clips of it. You can catch a glimpse of it at the end of the video! No water… In fact the...

How do you use NomNom to find the portal address of systems on your Discoveries Tab [Question]

Passed through system 10 years ago (so it appears on Discoveries tab) and went to station, did not go to any planets, before jumping out

"Add to Wonders" is only an option for visited planets or freighter scanned planets

"Set Custom Waypoint" only helps you warp 700 ly at a time in that general direction.. appears i am a significant number of jumps away

The Nom Nom save editor is said to show glyphs or an address can use to translate into glyphs

Stuff I only learnt through this Reddit + how long it took me [Discussion]

Maybe I'm slow on the uptake, or maybe it's that I don't experiment enough, but here's really basic stuff it took me waaay too long to learn, and roughly how many hours into the game I was before I found out (spoilers for those who'd rather find out for themselves).

!Larval Cores refine for nanites – 150 hours

So do Radiant Shards – 300 hours

So do Inverted Mirrors! – 350 hours

Juicy Grubs can be squished to trigger Vile Broods – 450 hours

Vile Broods are even a thing – ditto 450 hours

Anomalous Doughnuts + Nutrient Investor+ Scanner upgrades = moneeeey! – 550 hours

Pugneum + Atlantidium together refine for heaps of nanites – 600 hours!

I'm sure there's plenty more stuff I'm still to find out, but it shocks me how long it took to learn some of the above.

Scan harmonizer issue [Question]

I have hit a snag or possible bug in the They Who Returned quest where my scan harmonizer doesn’t seem to be working. I have tried the other fixes on the sub but don’t have a save I can get back to prior to starting the quest line. I have tried warping to different systems/galaxies. Restarting the mission with local structures, etc but my scanner still doesn’t reveal any cloaked autophage. I think my issue could be that I switch out my multitool for an S class that I found at a harmonic camp and cannot get the old one back. (My multitool inventory was already full so I think that one is totally lost). When I switched them I had not yet finished installing the harmonizer. Did that switch somehow inexorably tie the quest to the old multitool? Has anyone encountered this issue and are there any solutions?

Dove back in after a couple of years. [Discussion]

My old gaming rig fried its hard drive, and with taking care of my disabled wife I just didn’t have much time for gaming anyway.
However, things change, and I decided to get back into things. Bought a new rig and downloaded NMS from Steam. I’d been using it almost entirely on “exploration” mode previously. So I decide to fire up a new regular game. Promptly got killed….

First planet was some icy, toxic-atmosphere rock. I quickly found my ship but it needed a part to fly and the scanner showed the needed bits were VERY far away. I got there on the edge of dying, but did not make it back…. I guess I needed to stock up on the necessary stuff to keep my exo-suit charged.

So i repeeatet that again and again for an hour or something. Then i thought it was because i only had on living frigate so i go out with an anomaly detector and the other thing (i firgot it‘s name), find a living frigate, but when i recruited it, it didn‘t spawn at my freighter and wasn‘t on my list to send to expeditions.

Limits on Fleet & Settlements [Question]

First off, I've been loving the expansion to settlements! It's one of my favorite parts of these games to build up assets like houses/settlements/etc. What are the reasons it's limited to 4, and is there a chance this will be expanded again? I would love more depth to it in time, but love the upgrading system they've developed so far...

Then there's the freighter fleet... Why can I still build 10 fleet command modules, but only have a max of 5 missions offered at a time? Occasionally a super long mission will provide a need for a 6th, but I've never needed more... Am I missing something? The hardest mission I've seen is 3 stars, and my entire fleet is S class at this point.

Safe journey travellers!

The build system seems to accept all placement options except for the one I want [Screenshot]

In this set of images, the build tool is refusing to place the floor tile matching with the other floor and wall tiles regardless of which other walls are present, as long as the staircase is there. It's as though it has decided that the near side of the staircase is the one which should be lined up with the wall, despite there already being a wall on the far side of the staircase. But if I remove the staircase and put the floor tile in, then I am not able to put the staircase in this position relative to the floor tile, again regardless of which walls are present--unless I remove the wall it's up against, which then makes it refuse to allow me to put that wall piece back in that position. It's like there is some arbitrary limitation disallowing me from having a half-stair which is against a wall and has a floor tile under it, unless the floor tile is half-off positioned from everything else.

The build system does this with all sorts of other things any time I start using half-width pieces of any kind. It'll just start objecting to the most typical and generic placements while allowing all sorts of wild incomprehensible placements that totally mismatch with what I'm doing. And this isn't exclusive to half-pieces. Even full walls and floors or other pieces all throughout the build menu will do stuff like this, frequently denying very specific placements I want while having no problem with placements which I'm not likely to ever use. It's so frustrating trying to use this thing. How come nobody is talking about this? (That or Google is just purposely ignoring all relevant search results which is actually highly on brand for Google search results these days.)

Killing Creatures for Nanites [Screenshot]

So I discovered a planet in a purple system that has electronic creatures. When you kill them you get a species recovery item which can be analysed into nanites ranging from 30 - 100 each. Although both of the creatures are listed as rare, there are alot and very easy to find due to the large size and easy to kill.

Stuck or don't know what to do next. [Question]

Hi guys. This might be a stupid question, but im kinda soft stuck in the game.

I recently aquired a freighter, and in the last two playthroughs, I basically managed to get infinite recources without cheats.

One time I built a Planetary collector on the activated indium, the other time I just portalled through trade and pirate station, ending with hundreds of millions and a 10k Nanites within a few hours.

Then I went and killed the final sentinel Walker. And now, It feels like ive completed the game, while i know I haven't even done 20% of the content.

So my question is, what do I do from here? What's available to me?

Glitched achievements? [Question]

So I was looking through my achievements today and saw I had unlocked The Sentinel and Stranger in a Strange Land. I did not do either of those achievements. I don’t know how I have them. To my knowledge I’ve never glitched the game or used mods. I do have an older save that matches those dates but it was just a regular game not anything special?

Exquisite Kindness! [Information]

So I made a permadeath save to get the to live forever trophy on NMS in order to get the 100% in the game (which I made in 5 hours and 10 minutes). After that, I completed playing on my own normal/main save. So I was thinking “I’ve done nearly everything in my save, how about I do it all again on my permadeath one?”

It was an exiting idea, but had one drawback for me, other kind travelers gave me an iron vulture (fav ship) and a boundary herald on my normal save, and since I didn’t do their expeditions, I couldn’t just have them in my permadeath save, this made me less enthusiastic towards the idea. Yet, I still played on the save and was enjoying it

Until….

I was at the anomaly doing smth fast and just returning and then I’ve seen it: a traveler gifting 2 people iron vulture parts! I couldn’t believe it and then I rushed towards him in hope that he will do that to me too, but oh man did he not just do that This kind travelled gifted me: 100 suspicious packets of arms 130 cargo bulkheads A LOT of multi tool augmentation slots A LOT of exo suit augmentation slots A LOT of starship augmentation slots So much salvaged frigate modules that I had 38 remaining after spending them on every thing remaining some ai valves worth MORE THAN A FRICKIN BILLION UNITS AND IRON VULTURE PARTS WITH A S CLASS REACTOR CORE and some cake thing (a hundred to be exact) which I don’t know what is their purpose so can anyone tell me? All of that he gave me, in permadeath, for FREE!!!! His username is Zorezs and the whole point of this post is to credit him for his kindness (and don’t worry I asked him if I can say their name)

No man's sky (2016) [Discussion]

So I watched this guy on YouTube playing the original No Man’s Sky from 2016 (haven’t finished the video yet… it’s almost 5 hours long 😅). And honestly? The game wasn’t that bad.

Sure, it’s not like today’s version at all… it feels almost like a completely different game now. They changed or removed a bunch of stuff over the years. Even resource names have changed. Like, there was no Ferrite Dust in 2016… it used to be something else entirely (like Iron, I think?).

It’s kinda wild how much the game has evolved. I legit thought the game was horrible back then because of all the backlash and bad reviews. The drama made it sound like the game was a total mess 😂 But watching this gameplay now… I get why some people actually liked it from day one

Can someone help me understand if I have something valuable I should save? [Question]

Hi there,

I have played NMS for just 15 hours more than a year ago. Now, I have started it again but my old save is too confusing, I need to learn everything again from zero so I started a new one.

I would like to continue the new game and abandon the old one, but I am just wondering if I had been able to collect some interesting material or if I had reached some kind of peculiar side quest that would be a waste to delete.

Could someone please help me determine if there is anything worth saving from my old game? I have posted all the infos that I thought might be relevant, I don't know if there is something else I should look into.

Many thanks!

Can’t decide if building a PC for No Man’s Sky VR is worth it—need advice [Question]

Hey team,

I’ve been stuck on this decision for a long time. I really want that fully immersive, visually stunning experience in VR—specifically in No Man’s Sky. I first got into the game on Switch v1, but the visuals just aren’t cutting it for me anymore. I was recently gifted a Quest 3, and now I can’t stop dreaming about what NMS would feel like in VR with great settings.

After a ton of research, it looks like I’d need to spend about $2,000 for a proper setup (PC, monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc.). If I went for it, I’d likely build something with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and a 5070 Ti.

Here’s the hangup: I’m afraid I’ll drop all this money and end up not using it much. I tend to be the kind of person who only buys things I really need, and this feels like a big leap into something I want. But I also know myself—if I don’t do it, I’ll probably keep circling back to it, wondering about it on and off for months or years.

I can imagine myself getting back into games I used to love, like Guild Wars 2, and exploring new, graphically rich worlds. But what if I build this thing, play for a month, and lose interest?

Has anyone else gone through this kind of decision? Especially when it’s about chasing a very specific experience?

Would love your thoughts.

Sentinels won’t leave my damn settlement alone. [Question]

It is possible that picking a settlement on a world with aggressive sentinels was a mistake. I have completed the Trace of Metal quest and even stood and fought for over an hour hoping it would allow me to defeat them after a walker showed up and then I could shut down the boundary node. No dice. They just spawned in wave after wave until I finally rage quit, jumped in my ship, and vaporized their space fleet. When I returned to my settlement and landed… another twelve fcking sentinels spawned in and detected and attacked me instantly.

This is annoying as piss. Anyone have any advice other than “release this settlement and find one on a world that doesn’t have an infestation of assholes.”?

Good s class multi tool [Question]

So I'm about 40 hours into No Mans Sky. I finally wanted to go hunting for an s class multitool. I watched some videos and decided to start hunting.

I'm extremely lucky and my second space station cabinet was s class with the above rifle.

I was going to go hunting until I find a cool type of multitool, but the fact that I found a 24 slot s class so quick, I'm assuming I should just snap it up. But since I am so new I figured I would ask first.

Should I buy this multitool or try to find one that looks cooler? I haven't visited any of the planets in the system yet.

Getting conflicting reports about resetting the freighter base... [Question]

I wanna redo my freighter base, but I'm getting some conflicting information. The in-game warning says you won't get your resources back from disassembled parts, but I've also heard people say they've had the resources used to make the base be put in either the base salvage pod or their inventories after resetting.

Sooo what's the truth here? I spent a lotta silver and other materials making my old base that I really don't want to have to grind to get again. Do I really need to delete it manually via the build menu to get my resources back?

I think I finally figured something out. [Discussion]

So a while back I was noticing a trend in my main save. Ever since I got to Sivarates, I was seeing a ton of stations all named "The X Sphere". Of course X would be the system name. I asked here about it and was told it was due to my renaming the systems. This of course I never actually believed. These stations were all named that format before I even thought of renaming any of the systems.

Now, I have been poking around a bit more, and I came to a realization. It's due to the region I'm mostly in. Every system I have found with that station name format has been in one particular region of Sivarates, and the few systems I have found outside that region have stations more randomly named.

I have heard that some regions have "rules" on them regarding all sorts of things. I am starting to think my "home" region (Chkeni Expanse for anyone curious) has a rule on it that all stations are named as Sphere. Oh and that all exotic ships in it have a 7 decal too. I have found 10 exotics that have a fin on top, and space for a decal on the fin, and all 10 of them have a 7 decal.

S/A Class Non-'meta' Freighters Worth It? [Question]

I have a bog standard c class freighter and have been looking into all the different types you get. There's loads. It seems to me that the 'meta' (as in, most used) ones are the pirate dread and then the large Star wars SD kind of themed ones and the sentinel.

I kind of liked the appearance of a few other Freighters not generally used (like enterprise) but I'd rather not limit myself if I can avoid it. So I'm trying to work out whether trying to pursue a S/A Class freighter of this type (or any others not frequently used) are actually worth it? Otherwise I'll pursue the ones everyone else goes for.

I probably missed this on Google but figured it would be safe to ask and confirm here...

Think I'm getting the hang of this gene sequencing thing. [Screenshot]

Admittedly, Sehina here is from a species whose description specifically mentions the conditions of their verdant planet cause huge genetic variability, so I probably got a bit of a boost there. But also, their parent was more of a hyena/armadillo thing that produced eggs at an alarming rate, and I barely touched the gene splitter.

The upshot is that this is a gentle, sweet, intelligent, and curious creature who is also a 5m tall member of a species that was the local apex predator when it was only 2m tall. If trouble starts, Sehina ends it with astonishing efficiency.

And the whole species is telepathic. Just me and my 4 story telepathic purple dinosaur catferret, going about our day.

This is a good game, I think.

I shook my head and gave him the game, smiling and explaining that I play NMS myself and was excited for him because I love it so much. Guy goes "Oh, can you tell me what the game is about? I've heard it's been around for a long time, I've wanted to try it for some time and was super excited to see it here at the library! It's mostly a game for exploring, right?" So I took a moment to describe (spoiler-free ofc) what he was about to experience and he was soooo happy and looking forward to getting home and guys, I was so emotional 🥹

Distressed Sentinel Signal Distance [Question]

Hello, I’m hoping someone can chime in here to let me know I have not experienced a bug. A few days ago, I ended up getting the event/quest where I found a distressed sentinel ship and was given the options to either Attack, Offer Assistance, or something else. The wiki suggests that all three options lead to the same outcome. That being the ship makes a hyper jump and disappears, leaving only the signal to trace through some hyper jumps.

That was a few days ago. I have since then been nonstop jumping, at first around 200ly per jump, but I have since then upgraded my warp drive to jump about 800ly per jump. I have managed to discover multiple pages of new systems, about 80 jumps just for this mission alone. I have traveled at least 20,000 light years, as a low-range estimation.

My question is whether or not this is normal to others… how far was your sentinel signal? I’m fine if I have to jump another 80 systems for it, but something just seems wrong about the distance… Even narratively speaking, the ship was limping and damaged. How on earth could it have jumped 20k+ light years? Is this normal, or should I concede that it may be bugged and just abandon the mission?

Is it weird that I've fallen out of love with this game? [Discussion]

I'm not even sure what to say man, up until a few months ago I was playing this game a ton and enjoying it. I started playing Skyrim, and enjoyed that too, but that's besides the point.

So I stopped playing up until the beacons update came, and I jumped in, and the game just felt empty, and not in the way the game is supposed to feel. I've finished all the quests, and gotten all the ships I want and all that, and I just can't find something to enjoy doing. I had the goal of putting a nice base in every galaxy, but meh.

Has anyone else bothered to learn to read the in-game text? [Question]

It's probably the most random / possibly pointless thing I've yet done, but while I was hanging around waiting for a specific exotic to fly in at a space station, I decided to grab a translator sheet off the internet and learn the in-game writing system.

Took about an hour of wandering around the place, translating signs and posters, but now I'm chuffed to be able to read everything fairly fluently. I guess it adds to the immersion, though it's a shame there's only about a dozen different things to read in the whole game.

Tip: find a portal wherever you are [Information]

Sometimes I may be exploring a system and happen across a post on Reddit with coordinates to something cool. I prefer not to go through the hassle of leaving the system to a base with a portal, checking out whatever cool thing, and then getting back to where I was. Instead, I just find a portal on the current planet!

Summon the exocraft roamer, pilgrim, nomad, or colossus

Use the exocraft radar to scan for alien structures (This should reveal a monolith)

Visit the monolith and do whatever you need to “activate” it (usually that means giving it something based on a random prompt)

Open the dialog with the monolith again. You should now have the option to locate a portal. Depending on the system, you have to give it an item depending on the dominant race. (Gek Relic, Korvax casing, or Vy’keen dagger)

You’ll now have the coordinates to the nearest portal

After all that work... [Discussion (rant?)]

I've played for just over 25 hours without dying. I also wasn't aware of the consequences of dying because I've been playing very nonchalantly. But I've been cautious and careful on every planet. I knew it was risky to hunt for storm crystals, but I felt I had a solid plan: bore underground to the crystal point, pop up when the storm hits, then go back underground. I didn't account for the possibility of the storm sucking me out of my tunnel because I didn't think that was a possibility.

I was wrong.

I lost 24 storm crystals and 30 grav balls. This game is amazing, but boy oh boy does it know how to make you rethink your in-game life choices.

Time to try again.

Distressed Sentinel Interceptor [Question]

I got this mission a while ago, before finishing the main quest line. I left it for the time being to finish the main story. Now I got back to it, but it just tells me to jump very far away, and when I do, the distance just increases. I've jumped like 20 times but still nothing (I jump as far as possible each time, basically at the end of the line).

I saw a post from about a year ago about the same issue, the only answers were to look through space stations in the teleporter for the quest icon (for me none of them have it) and to "restart using nearby systems" (which I also don't have, I can only abandon mission).

Do I just jump around more or is this a bug? If it's a bug, can it be fixed or do I need to abandon? Not very fun just jumping systems for an hour.

Living Ships are Incredible [Discussion]

I bought this game a few weeks ago and finally got my first one. At first it was just another one I was adding to the collection, but I thought they were amazing and beautiful.

Living ships use easily obtainable/findable materials as fuel for most things. Carbon, condensed carbon, living slime, and fluids. It's super practical to use, and it's unlikely anyone would have any fuel shortage problem with one of these

Aside from that, they have a drawback that I consider a great advantage in one aspect, their upgrades can be improved directly after you destroy the void egg space encounter and get the upgrade. Up to S class.

That said, mine came with the highest base shield value and damage potential of all the ships I've gotten so far. Many people don't like them or find them disgusting, but I love these little guys!

Oh yes, one last advantage, they are small, they even fit inside some caves.

Freighters could use an overhaul [Suggestion]

Freighters in No Man’s Sky currently feel like empty shells with little to explore or interact with—despite their size and cost, their interiors are static, repetitive, and mostly unused. A freighter overhaul could transform them into dynamic, explorable ships with procedurally generated interiors and meaningful gameplay. Imagine walking through massive hangars, engine rooms, and crew quarters, discovering secrets, interacting with your crew, and defending your ship during boarding events. This update could also include a rework of freighter combat and missions, making space warfare more strategic and rewarding. Right now, freighter weapons feel like an afterthought—there’s little incentive to upgrade them. That could change with the addition of customization and loot-based progression systems. Some key additions could include:

Procedurally generated freighter interiors with unique layouts for each ship.

Fully explorable decks like hangars, cargo bays, engineering, and living areas.

Crew interaction and random onboard events (fires, sabotage, boarding).

Freighter bridge command during battles—redirect power, deploy fighters, or issue tactical orders.

Freighter boarding mechanics—disable enemy ships, board them, and fight inside.

New mission types like trade convoy ambushes, pirate freighter hunts, or rescue operations.

Customizable freighter weapons and systems—swap out turrets, missile pods, or fighter bays.

Discoverable freighter tech upgrades through missions or exploration—unique shields, rare beam types, EMPs, etc.

Progression-based incentive to improve freighter combat capabilities for harder missions and better rewards.

Let me know what you think and how I could improve this idea to better suit no man's sky

Just finished my first Permadeath run on Steam Deck OLED also grinded for a new S Class Dreadnought Freighter afterwards. [Screenshot]

At first I was hesitant to play this game on Steam Deck due to it’s battery life. My max play time every time is 2 to 2 and a half hours. I used to play on my MacBook but whenever I play on that machine I often spend around 5-8 hours straight playing which I despised the most since I have full time work, part-time work, and currently taking my Master’s as well. Now on Steam Deck I usually play it on battery and never while it’s charging. With this playing 1-2 times a day with its 2 hours battery life really made the difference for me to balance my other responsibilities and playing this game.

Lost 500+ hour save and account progress. Help please, [Question]

I’ve played no man’s sky since it came out. Loved the game and its evolution over the years.

Took a break for a few months. And about two years ago I booted the game up and my save was gone. 500+ hour save just gone.

I uninstalled and reinstalled, cleared cache, logged in on my wife’s console and power cycled like there was no tomorrow.

Sure I can get back all my units, all my nanites and weapons and ships and so on and so forth. But what really annoys me is it was just 1 save that was lost, it was basically the progress of my account. I completed 3 expeditions, and now if I go to the expedition thing in the anomaly, it’s as if I’ve done nothing, I can’t claim the rewards. And the expedition saves are gone too.

It’s is literally like I’m a new player.

I’ve even joined my wife’s game on my new save and gone to the systems I’ve discovered 7-8+ years ago.

I’ve submitted several “request” to hello games over the past two years and not gotten a response.

Is there a way to submit an official ticket for something like this. When I go to their website from links other Reddit users recommend it says it’s a “request submission” and when I submit it, I get a confirmation email that they’ve received “thanks for reporting a bug, crash or issue. We won’t always respond to bug reports”

I’ve had no success at even getting a response with these submissions over the past two years. Ives submitted at least 3 times.

Any ideas for help?

An idea for the nothing-wall in front of the cartographer's desk on space stations [Suggestion]

Right now that wall just has a decorative thing that looks like a contour map. I'd like to see something truly useful and it occurred to me it would be the perfect spot to place a galaxy map. Right now the only ways to see that map are (1) launch to space in your ship, or (2) from the bridge of your freighter. Being able to see the map when you're on a station would be pretty handy. Bonus idea: Allow using the map to teleport direct to any station you've previously visited (just a bit more convenient than having to run to the teleporter around the corner).

Advice please! [Question]

I’m a new player looking for advice on my base. I didn’t really plan or explore properly when building my base, and now it’s poorly made and seemingly impossible to sort out. I’ve been asked to build a weapons terminal, I have the construction and science ones and they are staffed

My question is, if I build a different base on another planet, can I remove the construction and science terminals from my first base, rebuild them in my second, and have them sort of transfer over? And then continue the ‘expanding the base’ missions from there? Or am I sort of stuck now with that first base?

Does this game hate me specifically 😭 [Question]

So I’m new to this game, I’ve played for less than 10 hours, but I think i really do like it!

It’s just. The first time I played, I woke up in a massive crater/pit, and as the mission goes, I have to get to my ship, right?

I could NOT. The pit was to steep and deep that I couldn’t climb or jet pack out of it. I tried to be patient and not just give up straight away, though I must be missing something, but nope!

Eventually I looked it up, and it seems like no one had the same issue??? So I just had to start again. Which is FINE I definitely didn’t get far but. Cmon man.

And on my SECOND play through, i was able to get to my ship, and I was up to the point where I needed to get the antimatter fuel recipe for the warp drive I just installed.

So I followed the quest marker, and I didn’t know what I was looking for; but I found myself on a few small landmasses surrounded by ocean, and the quest marker was below the water

So I was like okay, annoying, guess I gotta go underwater and dig through the bottom.

But no!!!!! I dug a bunch and I still couldn’t find it!! I just ended up hitting hard ground I couldn’t dig through, and the marker was STILL pointing lower!!!

And I searched for help online, AGAIN, and I could not for the life of me find and answer to my specific issue, AGAIN D:

Anyway I’ve started ANOTHER save, and have gotten up to the anomaly, so I hope I’m in the clear

TLDR: started game, couldn’t get to my ship as I was in a big pit and the ship was outside of it.

Started over, needed antimatter recipe, could not get to the recipe as it was under unbreakable ground.

Had to start over a third time, I think I’m in the clear. Wish me luck please 😭

Has anyone had the same issues I have?

To start the post game quest chain that leads to the worlds part 2 content, i need to do the main questline, the atlas path and the trace of metal questline. Am i getting that right? [Question]

I grinded through the atlas path for the first time due to wanting to experience the new purple worlds. Ive already completed the main quest and am waiting for the trace of metal quest to kick off at this one settlement i got at the start of the playthrough and never did anything with. Am i missing anything else? The internet gives me conflicting information. The trace of metal questline isnt explicitly mentioned in regards to worlds part 2 content, but i think i need to meet the autophage first, which do require that. Ive spent some time on a dissonant world trying to find an autophage settlement and destroying harmonizers in hopes that theyll drop me an echo locator, but i didnt get anything to happen.

Some questions from a returning player in 2025. [Question]

Last time I've played this game was around 2020 or something. I used to play it since launch, always loved it. I have some questions:

I've seen that now we have some QoL options at the beginning of a new game: Can I finally turn off combat completely without having many repercussions in the inner workings of the game itself?

Is there something essential I should know having spent so much time away from the game before starting again?

Are mods still somewhat mandatory to make the game more diverse? I used to have many mods to make the game increase its variety, since I ran off quickly of aesthetic variations back then and to reduce fuel when taking off to avoid having to recharge the ship's energy constantly, which was a thing I hated doing.

Can I play the game as a single player experience? I don't like all the "online" updates and things. I want to have every item in the game or at least have access to it without having to do online stuff. Is that possible?

Very Basic Platinum Mine & Refinery [Platinum Mine & Refinery]

Built as an experiment to see if converting precious metals into nanites would have long term viability.

While the final refinement step per stack is faster than a mold farm, the current yields make it impractical when considering the collection time and double refinement procedure essential to get the nanites.

Current process produces around 4095 platinum per batch. Or about 163 nanites. Total storage and processing capacity can be increased to 8,190 platinum or 327 nanites without increasing current power cost. Too lazy to calculate out the increased time for production.

New player, dumb question. [Question]

Hello everyone,

I just started playing this 4 or 5 days ago. I had never played previously so I am very overwhelmed trying to learn how it all works.

Yesterday, I found myself in some ship combat, and some other random side missions digging up keys for ancient chests. After it was all done, I had a gravitino ball, some kind of purple epic colored fruit, and multiple suspicious packages to open (also pirate transponders). The fruit was worth 750k, and the black market upgrades made my suit and multitool ridiculous, especially in the supercharge slot. Its giving me like 4,400% mineral scan reward and 17,300% flora scan rewards. Im making 100k just scanning a couple plants in an endless universe of flora.

Is making money suppose to be this easy? Am I just super lucky on my first play? Is my perception of value in the game not accurate? Someone please explain.

Decided to give ocean worlds another try after being pretty disappointed with the first one I found. Glad I did, this time I hit nearly 1500ft depth, explored some ruins, and ended up really enjoying the whole dark, anything can happen treasure hunting vibe.

Hoping they expand this part of the game, especially the exocraft systems. There’s a lot of potential down there. Also, if you’re using the dredging laser at that depth, one lithium node can give you around 1000. Definitely worth checking out and bring a lot of life support packs or oxygen. It goes fast!

I should buy NMS? [Question]

I've been really interested in the game since I saw it, so I'd like to ask a few questions to see if it's worth buying. I've heard the exploration is great, but what about the combat?

What should I know about NMS combat?

Is there more land combat in NMS apart from the sentinells?

I’m very proud of my ship [Screenshot]

hi I’m a less experienced player and I took a huuuuge break from the game and only recently came back! I discovered you could make your own ships and I made one! She is a beaut… she’s nothing crazy like the exotic ships or living ships but she makes me happy and I wanted to share that with y’all! It’s kinda silly but I call it the Star Screamer cause I think it sounds cool 😎 I like to think that on atmospheric reentry it makes a gnarly sound, idk how realistic that is but the game has portals and anti gravity wells n whatnot so it’s ok! Anyways yeah just wanted to share my ship. Thank you for listening 😖

Ships glitched, two of my ships are now gone with their inventory [Bug]

Just made an S class fighter and ive had my Sentinel ship for awhile now...

Had the Sentinel ship for a few months now, and just made a S class ship. Went to my freighter and theres no ship. I went to summon them and theres no option to summon them. From all settings, summon options, and other wise, the game is acting as if i never had them. Any help or info anyone can give? Both lost and peeved bout this.

Thanks in advance for any help or info

Ship upgrades: [Question]

Quick question....are X-Class upgrades really that much better than S-class as far as upgrading your starship? Being a relative newcomer to the game " been playing about 4 months roughly 740 hrs in " I've read a lot of different views on this subject. From what I've been able to tell from personal experience so far X-Class seem to be a hit-miss, more often miss proposition,where as S-class are for sure a good thing and the overall stats seem to be almost equal assuming you actually get a decent upgrade from an X-Class purchase. Am I missing something?

Is a 30 minute long warp possible to fix without losing progress? [Question]

As is stated - I'm warping systems to get back to one I've put a waypoint on. But I've been stuck in the same warp between systems for almost 30 minutes now and I'm increasingly worried. I've warped several times in a row to get here, and I'm finally back to systems I've visited before, but I haven't landed or saved my progress in any way.

Has anyone had this happen before, and is it fixable? Maybe by hitting specific keys? Or cancelling the warp somehow, if that's even possible?

Help With Ship Building [Question]

I’m about 50 or so hours into NMS and I’ve been taking various parts from fighter ships with the intent to make my own. Then I thought, does each piece affect the stats in a different way? Currently I have a needle fuselage, single booster, and the halo wings. Also I have a few different parts in storage as well. Would this be a good build for a fighter? Also I have an s class reactor ready to go when I decide how to build the ship.

This is so strange [Question]

Hey everyone, so I've been playing since release and I've noticed since around the time Worlds 2 came out, no matter how many new saves I start, all the planets are basically the same.

I noticed I keep getting very similar fauna and minerals especially.

I used to get beautiful bubble planets with color changing grass and just…..it def felt more diverse to me, especially like 2 years ago in 2023. I even compared my screenshots from then to now and there's a def diff. They claimed they added more variety, but I'm just not seeing it.

I play currently on the onex, but I literally booted it up on my ps5 and even tried some saves there, and even my switch 2…..same issue on all 3.

Has anyone else noticed this at all? Maybe I'm not even describing it right, its hard to explain.

I want to betray and then "takebacksies" the geks [Question]

I may or may not have put off the main quest for about 20 hours since the start of the game and it wants me to rank up my gek trust level 2 times. The problem is I've made it to trade master and It takes a considerable amount of effort to rank up more.

My theory is will the quest still count if I start raiding gek ships thus sinking my reputation below the level, and then be nice to them again to raise it up, would that satisfy the quest? I just wanna play the rest of the game.

If not, whats the fastest way to rank up and make them love me?

Happy Birthday NMS and Thank You Hello Games! [Discussion]

Nine years ago, on Day One, I pushed my brand new No Man’s Sky v1.0 disc into my brand new PS4. I wasn’t much of a video gamer, and my adult son, who is, was very surprised to see the PS4. I fell in love with the game. I lost long hours wandering through Euclid and beyond, setting up bases, crafting everything, and searching out the elusive creatures to find every species on hundreds of worlds. After thousands of hours, I stayed up late, snagging one of the first PS5’s, braving the COVID lockdown to get it placed safely in my trunk on a parking lot pickup. My son was shocked again, waking up to find me already playing on my new machine. He had no idea.

The ship in the picture is my Squidiculous, which I found shortly after Exotics were introduced into the game. I’ve flown her for hundreds of hours, including today. (Yes, it’s technically nine years plus one day, but I started playing on the anniversary until the Stupid Hours of the next morning.) I was playing the save I created on that very first day, which has more than 1,550 hours on it. I lost a 1,000+ hour save in the early 2.0 timeframe, but my 2.n active save that followed is closing in on 1,100 hours, and my 4.0 active save is at 750 hours. With expeditions, including multiple runs of several, I’m very close to 5,400 hours of play.

I do love my Squids, which are my favorites to fly: Squidiculous 💛 Squidaddle ❤️ Squidmarks! 🤍 Squidney Greenstreak 💚 Indisquidably Purple 💜 Rhapsquiddy in Blue 💙

As a retired woman with a career in software engineering, I am in awe of what HG has done with their small team of developers. I’m stunned by the frequency of incredible new content that keeps getting added to the game. Thank you HG, for all the impressive work. Happy Birthday to the game I love! 🎉🎊🙋‍♀️🎂🥂🍾🥰

Are there really settlements on every elligible planet? [Question]

As the titel says, I am looking for a settlement on this planet, its in a Gek system, Lush perfect. I just can not find any settlements on it. When I use the autophage chart it redirects me to another planet, but even when I use the normal settlement chart it does not give me anything on planet. Ive tried very very often even on different positions.
The planet is beautiful, but kinda like Zhangjiajie in China, meaning there is not a lot of flat space. Ive seen other structures like a trading post, a minor settlement, a monolith or a portal, but maybe a settlement is too big and couldnt find a place to generate?

Really have no othr explanation, could this be or do I just have to continue my search?

Finally, an A-class freighter [Information]

Hello travellers, last night, after around 400 hours, I got my A-class freighter. Before that, I had a B-class, which was my first free one. I had had it for quite a while. When I took it, I had no idea what it was used for. Until then, I had only ever demanded tribute and that was it. It was only recently that I read a lot about freighters here and learned what they are used for and how everything is managed. As I said, yesterday I warped into the target system and disabled the pirate freighter. I went to the bridge to see the captain and saw that it was an A-class freighter. I ended the conversation and started uninstalling the modules from my freighter and transferring them from the cargo hold to my ship or my exo suit. This worked for almost all of them until I was stupid enough to remove my material transport module after two-thirds of the uninstallation. The result was a connection failure to the old freighter. I then lost some modules, especially the ones for warping, when I exchanged freighters. Now I have the A and have already been able to upgrade it again because I still had some cargo space left in storage. The only annoying thing is that it's a Geck crew. Their scratchy language is annoying, but maybe I'll get used to it and start to like these little guys, kzzte.

Are the sentinel ships worth it as a principal ship ? [Question]

I recently got a sentinel ship and I don't really like the way it has to be refill, cause it need a special fuel that (from what I've understand) can only be found by filling corrupted sentinels and this seems slightly rare to found, so should I just use this ship sometimes to like show off (because I found it really aesthetic), or is it a ship that can be used as a principal ship ?

Doubt about the end of the game. [Question]

I marked it as a spoiler, for those who haven't finished the game yet. I've played 100 hours, I've already finished the main mission, and the autophagos mission. I didn't finish the atlas path. I had understood that by finishing the main mission I would already have access to the purple star systems. But I haven't seen any yet. Do I have to finish the atlas mission too? If you don't need to do the atlas mission do you have to do anything special?

These few are all ships that you have to fix up for current pilots. These two ships, one looks exactly lile the one you get from the Artemis questline, and the other looks exactly like the initial ship, the Radiant Pillar.

I'm struggling figuring out what my next goal should be, could I get a little guidance? [Question]

I finally managed to build a feeder and harvester for milk, I have a few bases on planets I like, I have an A class freighter and the S class ship from December. I can go to all types of stars (as far as I know), and I have 12 million credits and 20k nanites - but I'm not sure what to spend it on.

I've been making my money scanning things with multiple S class scanner upgrades too.

With that said - what are some other projects I can work towards? I have 40 hours on this save so far, but I'm starting to feel aimless. I don't want to quit the game yet, but without non-base building goals I'm not sure what to do. Is it worth making an outpost or whatever they're called? How should I be making my money and nanites now?

How To Regain My Love for This Game [Question]

Before anyone tears me apart in the comments let me just say, I absolutely love this game. I've put in 548 hours at the time of posting and almost every hour has been pure enjoyment. This post is not me trying to dog on the game, nor is it a thinly veiled attempt to get my own bug reports answered. The devs have been absolute saints as most of you know, and the depth of recent updates and strides in UI and other areas has been huge.

That being said, I have an issue. I stopped playing a couple months ago because I hit a wall. I've been playing for quite a long time (I'm one of those folks who plays on one save and one save only, accumulating my explorer riches). When you've put that much time into a save you start to run out of things to do unless you FIND things to do. For me the greatest undertaking as a late game player has been exploring and discovering planets/flora/fauna. I had a lot of fun documenting different creatures, scanning large swaths of space, etc. However, I started to notice an issue. Almost every time there was an update a bunch of the data I had collected was wiped from my records, as if I had never discovered it in the first place. I'm talking flora, fauna, in some places even whole planets when I looked them up in the discovery tab were acting like I hadn't ever landed on them. When I went back to the planets they still carried my name for discovery, and their flora and fauna when I "re-scanned" it still named me as the discoverer. However, the inabilty to navigate back to planets where I had discovered certain flora or fauna, not to mention the inability to display it using a wonder display quickly discouraged my explorative pursuits. I also noticed that even planets/flora/fauna I "re-scanned" could and in some cases would still get wiped from my records by a new update. In other words, going back to rescan was futile.

This inability to really...

Is this new? Artemis and Atlas path combine under certain circumstances... [Discussion]

I have started the purge, but haven't finished the Atlas Path (normally I do the Atlas Path before starting the purge).

So I switched to the Atlas Path mission and I left the anomaly, a message came up, asking if I wanted to seek the final Atlas Interface, or complete the Atlas Path.

I chose the to seek the final interface, the log remained on the Atlas Path, but after my first jump to the first Atlas station I got a data injection. After the second jump, another data Injection source unknown (the message you get with a glyph).

(I already have all glyphs)

I check the Purge mission and it says it is at stage 2/16

Which checks out.

So it looks like I can do the Atlas Path and the Purge at the same time.

Has this always been a thing?

Or is it recent?

SUGGESTION: Base "Groups" to make finding certain bases easier... [Suggestion]

I always name my bases something useful and save a base picture. That being said, after 300+ hours of playing, I have so many bases to scroll through. I know many people have several thousand hours, and I imagine it will be a growing problem as one continues playing. I've went through the painstaking task of deleting ones I didn't need, but there are still so many I want to keep.

It seems like it would be fairly easy to implement a tab system, where you could classify different base groups to your liking. It would make managing farming FOBs and smaller bases much easier. Thoughts?

Ghosts in the Machine (Locate and activate Holo-Terminus) [Bug]

I am currently stuck on the above mentioned quest line. I have researched and tried every option I could find online to resolve this issue.

Whenever I go into space and press L3 to scan my surroundings, the quest tells me to reset the mission to nearby structures. So I reset the quest. It repeats. I warp to different systems using the teleporter to say the quest is nearby to, warp far away and reset, and even try to follow the long path it suggests to the far away marker(where it will proceed to change galaxies for the quest). I have restarted both the game and console multiple times. Yes, the mission is pinned/selected. How do I do this quest?

Black holes [Question]

So I died on my first Permadeath save due to my own negligence. It’s heartbreaking but I’m not giving up. I was wondering what are the rules surrounding black holes. From what I’ve read, they always teleport you closer to the center but the few I took before I died, I was getting thrown halfway across the galaxy and I definitely moved further back a few times. Are the rules different if you’re playing on survival or did they adjust how black holes operate period. Nothing Ive been able to find is new source material so I really have no base line to go off of.

Have the devs addressed why certain bugs/glitches have been in the game for so long or given a roadmap to fixing them? [Question]

Obligatory - I love this game. It's phenomenal. I see myself playing it for a very long time. Haven't played anything else for like a month and a half since I started it. I've gotten two other friends to play it bc they saw how much fun I'm having.

However...

There is a laundry list of bugs that have been really irritating. I am using no mods whatsoever FTR:

  • getting stuck inside/clipping enemy freighters during battle forcing reload

  • stellar extractors just straight up not working 85% of the time

  • NPCs bugging into the ground at bases/freighter/space stations

  • certain scanner POIs not having anything when you get to them (usually ore nodes that just don't exist)

  • quests.... just.... quests. the main story. dear god so many bugs along the way. story was great but i hated the experience due to all the lost time from bugs

  • bases (primarily on water planets) and freighter frequently deleting parts I've built (I'm nowhere close to placement cap). I have one base in particular that deletes two of my fucking doors every time I load into the area. It's not a very big base and I'm not building outside area limits.

  • refiners deleting your shit if you leave the area

  • building placement is finicky (much better in building camera mode to be fair)

And probably a lot more I'm not remembering at the moment. I do understand why they may choose to leave "glitch building" in because it actually helps players create cooler things. But these are different.

From what I understand and have read, it seems like many if not all of these have been a problem for a long time. I do realize this game is absolutely mind blowingly massive and what they've accomplished continues to impress me over and over again.

The devs have been doing amazing work on all the updates....

TIL that you can do the The Artemis path purge and Atlas Path at the same time, thus cutting down the time it takes to get to purple systems. [Information]

Do the Artemis Path until you start "the Purge" then switch missions to the Atlas Path and when asked if you wish to seek the final interface, or complete the atlas path, choose 'seek the final interface' and leave atlas path selected, now for every warp you do to an Atlas station, the Purge also advances 1 step.

Finish the Atlas path and install the suit upgrade you get from the decision you make, so it now says Atlas Eternal.

Continue and finish the Artemis Path so it says: New Beginnings

(make sure you have done the base computer secondary missions, including expanding your base, some suggestion that at least part of expanding the base is needed)

If you haven't already done this, unlock a harmonic camp on a dissonant planet (shoot drills to get an echo locator, to find the camp, drop a base so you can farm sentinel interceptors later)

Warp between systems to trigger They Who Returned

Complete all branches of that secondary mission.

Then pulse in system to trigger In Stellar Multitudes

Inconsistant creature graphics? [Screenshot]

When I explore new planets I've long noted that some creatures have many colors while others seem to have only two.

HELP crashing while building [Bug]

As stated above, game keeps crashing while Im building my base. Im at 12000 pieces out 16000 (yes for one base) and it is quite massive.

Nothing Found after every successful interaction with a Monolith [Question]

I hope I've posted this in the proper location.

I've used Planetary Charts (Alien Cartographic Data) and an Exocraft to locate Monoliths. I've found at least 15 -20 Monoliths on 3-4 different planets, most being on one planet. I've successfully answered the Monolith's propositions, the incorrect ones, I reloaded the save to give the correct answer. Afterwards, I get "The ancients that inhabit this monolith accept my presence. They will tolerate a request" dialogue. 1. Locate a Portal (1 Vy'keen Dagger) which I have been using. Once I click 1. "Nothing Found" pops up on my screen.

I'm not sure what I'm missing or if this a bug? I'm guessing not, as I haven't completed the main quest lines and I'd consider myself somewhat new. I will add however, I have previously located several other portals prior to this issue with no problem.

If it helps, my current Primary missions are The First Traveler (Null, the Stranger), The Space Anomaly (Beyond the System?) and The Atlas Path (The Dust of Creation)

Sorry for the book written here, just not sure if this is something that just needs to work it self out within the story line. Thanks in advance!

My suggestion about the world variety [Discussion]

So. Recently I was sucked into playing No Mans Sky again and I noticed that some parts of different planets still feel same-y (especially animals for me). And I had a thought. What if the devs could make some sort of tool to make new animal parts, mineral models, plants etc, where people can also publish these models for others to preview and try out with different animal bodyparts. Then people can vote wether they want it in the pool of randomly generated parts or they find it too boring or inappropriate. Then once in some period of time the developers pick the best voted ones and add them into the game. I know that it is easier said than done, but if done right it may give us a way to be invoolved in the development of the game we love, attract a lot of new creative people into the community, and it can improve the variety of the planets, making all our ideas scatter across the in-game universe. And it would also let the developers do the stuff they actually want to do while providing free new content. I got inspired by the way Team Fortress 2 handles it's seasonal cosmetic updates

Expeditions. [Discussion]

Having zero expedition content available to new players who have purchased the game at full price just isn't right. I understand they were time sensitive content, but there has to be a way to re-roll them or something.

Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love this game and it's scratching my gaming itch I've had for years, but to discover that I've missed out on hundreds of hours of content, skins unlocks, ships, appearances customizations and more. It's very disheartening.

Please either bring back a way for new players to experience the expeditions (especially since we've paid full price for game) or let us buy some of the expedition items with quicksilver.

Also, I understand many have grinded many hours to get certain items from the expeditions. I 100% understand if those items will never be acquirable in the future. Unless y'all bring back expeditions...

Do I actually recall reading a bit of in-game lore that described the Vy'keen as "the last of the 'keen species" and that they were the most timid subspecies of the group; and their warrior culture with its WAR DEATH focus is a consequence of the trauma of the destruction of the rest of their kind? Or was this some weird fever dream? XD

Questions about multiplayer [Question]

after a couple years of not playing I got the ick and convinced some friends to try it again. IS there anything that we should do or focus on for a "multiplayer run" of the game. Are there missions that we can do? Should we all create new characters specifiacally for this? I still have my cloud save. Anything else we could try?

Stuck on "A Trace of Metal" [Question]

https://preview.redd.it/l1tlbl0buaif1.png?width=2150&format=png&auto=webp&s=35b9108ee4347422b2055a5db4ded8487050d334

I got past the initial Sentinel fight at my settlement and I got the item from the big mech to take to Tethys. I went to the anomaly and talked to Tethys and gave him the quest item, but the quest did not update. The mission still says to talk to Tethys (Image) but when I get to the part of the conversation where I hand him the item, the option is greyed out. I have tried restarting the game and doing other missions, nothing is working. Is there some way to abandon this mission or some kind of fix here?

My First try at a orbital base [Screenshot]

With all the post about making a orbital base i decided to try and make one. I don't think its anything super special kinda basic right now. I was going for the more traditional space station look but im still building and may change things. I tried to use some of the building tricks but they must of patched them or i was doing them wrong i could not get them to work. My goal is to set up a station in each galaxy this one here is called the Minerva Space Lounge. My wife has been helping me with the decorating and turned the big box into a bar/club with a hookah lounge. I think the Freighter being so close looks cool too. Might have to try using my jet pack to get to it to see if it works. The second photo was some kinda glitch. I did a nexus mission and went to a monotone planet. When i came back and took a photo it some how still had the effects from that planet. Made it look cool tho with the red glow.

My Mission is Stuck? [Question]

In one of the primary missions, "Ghosts in the Machine", the red make indicating where I should go next will not appear no matter how many times I try to restart the game. I've located Apollo's contact, I reached my base. But now, it says that I need too expand and staff my new home. In the description of this objective it says, "Construct terminals for specialist researchers. Find recruits aboard Space Stations.". Still, It's like I'm stuck here. I've constructed these specialists terminals in a base on a planet, as well as my freighter. And it still doesn't take me where I need to go. Any advice on how to fix something like this?

Scary deep waterworld [Screenshot]

I hate waterworlds as I have Thalassophobia(the intense fear of deep bodies of water, such as oceans and large lakes.) and discovering this terrifying place which I didn’t spend much time on but the max depth I went to was 1,366.3 U below. Don’t know where that stacks up with NM all time records but I’m done with it 🙃. Also this is my first time on Reddit so bare with me please!

I'm turning 1 year playing no man's sky 🎉🎉🎉 [Information]

A few days ago it was a year since I bought No Man's Sky, it has been the best game I have ever played, even if I only played in creative, hehe, but seriously, the feeling of freedom, the story, the mechanics, the characters, everything is perfect and made to enjoy

I invite you to share your experiences and feelings about the game. How long have you been playing, Traveler?

Is VR just broken? [Question]

I have read a few posts about the VR experience of this game and tried different fixes
The issue i'm having is basically it being completely unplayable in VR. I run it perfectly fine on desktop.
This post in particular included clips of what it looks like, that's basically exactly what happens to my game
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1hle60o/game_is_completely_unplayable_in_vr/
Except mine behaves even slightly worse.

Am i doing something wrong? Do you just need a crazy good pc to run this? I have never had any issues with any other vr game.
What's so weird too is like, usually when i play vr games or heavy games, my pc fans get louder cause temps are rising cause its using more resources.
But when i try this game in vr, the fans basically don't change speeds at all, almost as if it doesn't even want to use my pc to try and run it lol.
I have a ryzen 5 5600 and rtx4060 8gb. It's like, quite literally unplayable.

What can I do in creative mode? [Question]

Now, I have 9 hours on NMS, I had tried the creative mode, but for a short time, in fact I am continuing my story save, the one I am currently playing.

But I was wondering if there were fun things to do in creative mode, because if there is anyone among you who plays it a lot and can give me advice, please do so, because I would be curious to do other things in a fun and creative way.

Question about the game. [Question]

Greetings, Pilots.

Recently my grandfather (68 years old) decided that he wants once again play video games on PS5 and he asked me what games he should acquire. One of the titles that came into my mind is No Man Sky, but I wanted to be sure about certain things.

Do you think that this game would be good for someone who only played games like 25 years ago? Would this game be too hard for him to understand? I really would love to explore the cosmos with him, but also be sure that if he launch it solo he wouldn't have hard time there.

Thank you for your answers and stay safe out there, Pilots.

Permadeath run wasn't so bad. [Screenshot]

I'm a pretty experienced NMS player. I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 3k hours. My main save has pretty much everything available since I started playing. That said, I've only ever played on normal.

People talk about how much more difficult the survival/permadeath settings are, and dangerous the sentinels are in that mode, and I don't relish the idea of just losing progress, so I just always skipped it. After all, most of the times I died on normal were to weird situations or bugs. I ended up with every achievement but two, Take a Deep Breath, and To Live Forever.

Time for a cannon ball run. I decided to take my shot and load up permadeath. The stack sizes are smaller, and you take a bit more damage, but overall it wasn't that bad. I did avail avoid sentinels entirely, but even fighting pirates was still surprisingly easy. I just played conservatively, found my glyph, picked up a burner ship in the a early Artemis quest, and made my way to a portal. The whole thing took less than a dozen hours over a few nights.

My quest is over and I'm hanging up the save. To be honest the longer I play it the more upset I would be if anything happened to it. Overall permadeath isn't my cup of tea, but I'm glad I had the experience.

Exosuit doubts [Question]

Hello everyone, I am new to this wonderful world, I have played about 85 hours, I have already finished the Artemis mission and I already have the portals enabled, but I have a billion doubts about how to make a correct Build in the exosuit, I do not understand very well how to put the modules to take advantage of the adtacency, etc. If there is a post where it is explained well, please forgive me, I am also new to Reddit. Thank you all very much in advance, I love the No Man's Sky community, there is a lot of good vibes, which unfortunately is not abundant lately

Returning player looking for any other late game content. I've done the Autophage quests and have seen water worlds and gas giants. [Question]

As the title said, I created a new save. Did all the quests to unlock the Autophage. I went through all that to unlock dissonant systems so I can see the new planet types. It was very cool to see gas giants and water worlds. I even picked myself up an S class sentinel ship.

Is there anything else to see? I'm starting to feel the same fatigue from a few years ago when it felt like I had seen and done everything. I love exploring but not a fan of combat. I wish planets had some unique things to see because I love walking or driving around on a cool planet.

Does the Dreadnaught relocation glitch not work anymore? [Question]

Im trying to hunt an S class Dreadnaught with 4 square supercharged slots that spawns in a specific system but whenever I encounter a Dreadnaught and reload my last restore point and warp to the system that has a chance in spawning the Dreadnaught, it just never does, it’s always stuck on the system that initially spawned it. I’m following everything that the vids advise to a T, I own another Dreadnaught, finished the purge mission, and save a restore point at each space station before encountering it. I just can’t get it to change to the system I want it to. Does anyone know if this was patched or if there’s a workaround to this problem Im facing?

I made a brilliant mistake&have some questions [Question]

I realized I was headed for a random location on a planet rather than the specific site I was looking for, so I dropped out of hyperspace and straight into an asteroid field. I though it would take me forever to navigate my way out until I realized you could shoot the asteroids down and man do they drop resources.

Question 1: can I sell these 4 things in my cargo? iirc I saw options to gift them to random characters on a space station but idk if its worth it. what else in my cargo should I just sell other than goo and scrap metal?

Question 2: my dumbass interacted with a sentient planet and got 2 sentinels up mt as. Using what little HOTDS muscle memory I had left I barely shot both down (my survival difficulties are tuned down but all combat difficulties are normal). how screwed am I in this star system?

I gave up No Man’s Sky when it first came out. I kept coming back to it and it never stuck, until 2 months ago… [Screenshot]

2 months ago I gave No Man’s Sky another shot. I told myself I’ll force myself to give it a real go. It finally stuck, and now im addicted and it’s all I can think about. I have a massive home base on the planet in the picture. I have mines and farms all over the galaxy’s farming every gas and mineral. I’m filthy rich, and flying in style. I’ve clocked a 100hrs in the past 2 months and it’s been a wonderful ride. Thank you No Man’s Sky!

Only downside is I have no friends to play with. :(

Did a permadeath speedrun for the 100% [Discussion]

My friend and i both only had the 2 reach the centre of the galaxy achievements and we managed to knock it out in 3 nights, had heaps of fun, even more fun than my main save to be honest. I want to keep playing on that save but the idea of everything being deleted if I die isn't my style lol.

The worst achievement imo was the survive in harsh environments.

How do taxis work? [Question]

Hello,

I'd like to get to the Isdoraijung Galaxy, and someone recommended I take a taxi there, but I dont really know what that means. I traveled from Euclid to Eltiensleen, and I have 9 more galaxies to get through. I dont think I have it in me to travel that far. What is a taxi, how do taxi's work, and is there a taxi that can take me that far, and if so, how do I do it?

Thank you!!

Settlements [Question]

So… 4 or 5 hours into a new save (21 hrs total I think in the game), I stumbled on a settlement… now I am their overseer, but there are continuously 5 or 6 sentinels at the settlement.

Do they eventually leave or do I truly have to run for my life everytime I try to upgrade a building? I dont have the firepower on my multitool to kill them, but have killed 6 sentinel fighters so far.

Also: is it a bad idea to start a settlement this early on? There’s a 9M debt and still adding to it every second (just finishing the first building/upgrade in 15ish minutes).

#

i’m new, is this normal…? i have a “ghost town” autophage settlement 500u from my original settlement; any updates i make to my settlement updates this empty autophage settlement too [Screenshot]

i only accepted to be the overseer of my korvax settlement but somehow it has an autophage twin nearby? they’re laid out exactly the same, all the building signs say my settlement name instead of an autophage name. there are no autophage residents here even when i scan for them.

My quest for S class freighter [Discussion]

Hello travelers ! I'm in the market for a S class, korvax dreadnough freighter. It ... takes a while. This is my 2nd day doing a big search. I was told there wad between 2-5% chances of getting an S class so I decided to share my attempts.

Info : I found a pirate controled, korvax system that starts a battle when I warp in it. Its also dissonant. Everytime, I check both the pirate and civil freighter. Here are my results.

Reads as : 0(attempt): X(pirate freighter) & X(civil freighter)

1: C & C 2: B & C 3: C & C --- (save in a new system, pirate, advanced materials, korvax, dissonant) 4: B & C 5: C & C 6: C & C 7: C & C 8: C & C 9: C & C 10: C & C 11: C & C 12: C & C 13: C & C --- (losing hope) 14: C & C 15: C & C 16: C & C 17: A & C --- (considered taking the A and giving up) 18: C & C 19: C & C 20 : C & C 21: C & C 22: C & A 23: C & S --- (Finally an S, but it's the civil one...) 24: C (didn't check the civil)

Well, I'm going to touch grass now. Further tries later maybe

Multiple Building Bugs [Question]

https://reddit.com/link/1mnfful/video/mkxzm0dvneif1/player

Posted previously regarding this, but it's gotten a lot worse. Sometimes I hover pieces and it seems to bug out as seen in the video. Also when I pick pieces up it's duping (?) them instead of moving them, I also can't snap them to many places. There are also a lot of pieces that are straight up unclickable, along with gaps where I can't place walls to finish the base.
Have tried reloading and such but nothing seems to be helping. Wondering if there is anything else I could try, as it's a big deterrent from continuing if this will keep happening (second base in a row with such issues)

Potential New Player Question [Question]

I’ve been looking for a new game to get lost in and I want to give No Mans Sky a try but it’s still $59.99 on Xbox which seems crazy for a 9 year old game. I see sites selling it for really cheap but they send you an account for the game and not a key. Anyone have an idea how that works and if it’s legit? Seems sketchy to me. Thanks!

How rare is discovering another player’s base? [Question]

I warped 900,000 light years across the galaxy after encountering my first black hole. In search of the Atlas, I arrived at this galaxy discovered 9 years ago!!! That must be around the time this game first came out! I have no idea who discovered the galaxy or whose base is on this planet, how rare is coming across something like this?

Immersion could increase with a very simple change [Suggestion]

As someone with deep appreciation for biology, one of the most immersion breaking features of the game is the nonsensical descriptions of flora and fauna. A change that would at once keep me hooked, and improve this immersion would be if players were allowed to edit these descriptions to actually match the models of the F&F, their behavior and environments where they live - at least for the ones they discover and upload. I'd imagine this would also be very easy to implement.

For example, I recently saw a post of a giant crab/beetle like thing. It looks super cool, but it's huge and only weighs 200kg. One option would be to be allowed to change weight, but a description could "lore" this away. E.g. "this creature's caparace is highly durable but the cuticle is permeated by spiracles that greatly reduce their weight".

I would love to discover and make reasonable descriptions of F&F for other players to discover, occasionally inserting oddities, and once in a while half-jokey facts.

[MOD] SETTLEMENTS Instant Builds and Quests [Fan Work]

After pulling off my magnum opus S-class camp build once, I decided my precious IRLifetime was better spent not re-living that construction nightmare three more times.

Maybe I’ll whip up a free-build version later… if the crowd goes wild.

Still accurate? No Man's Sky base limits [Question]

How much of this info is still accurate nowadays? Are there any changes? (some of those information were taken from articles 5+ years ago).

Also, I've seen somewhere (here in Reddit, probably) that only 1 of your bases on a single planet will be displayed to other players - like if you have 10 bases on a single planet, only 1 will be shown to other players, possibly the base from the 1st base computer you activated on that planet, or the base you last modified and saved (I'm not sure, just speculating). Is it still a thing?

I've seen a video by Beeblebum on YouTube explaining how to extend a base radius to build further, but still one base is limited to 3000 items.
Beeblebum - How to extend your base: https://youtu.be/biRjprDKp3U?si=hdCHIr8m4639IaCw

"No Man's Sky Base Limit

No Man's Sky features a hard-coded limit of 20,000 base components (or pieces/objects) per save file, which is a primary constraint on the total size of all bases a player can build.

This limit is designed to prevent overly complex bases that could severely impact game performance, especially on lower-end hardware.

While the total save-file limit is 20,000 components, there is also a per-base limit of approximately 3,000 components, which prevents a single base from being uploaded to the game's shared universe if it exceeds this number.

Players can build larger structures by placing multiple base computers near each other, effectively creating a "megabase" that circumvents the individual base size limit, although the total component count across all bases is still capped at 20,000 per save file.

The game also enforces a limit on the number of bases per save file, with a maximum of 402 bases, including one Freighter and one Planetary Settlement."
