Missão de purificação [Question]

Oi gente!
Sou nova no jogo e cheguei recentemente na missão de purificação. Vi que isso reseta tudo e mudamos de galáxia... Meu questionamento é: Eu perco TUDO mesmo? Minhas missões, assentamentos, cargueiras... Tudo? Há volta ou preciso reconstruir tudo no zero lá? Posso fazer a missão e viver normal em Euclids depois com tudo que ja tenho?

How to get an inverted mirror? [Question]

Need help. After a long break from No Man's Sky I came back to the game to see what was added in the couple years since I last played. I started a new save and was doing a quest to fix a sentinel ship when I was told to find an Inverted Mirror.

Now the only planet I'm on has very mountainous terrain and the place I need to get to is stuck under a volcano where I can't break terrain to get to it. Any suggestions on how to either get this Dissonance Resonator deposit or to find another one easily?

Living Ship [Question]

Does any one have any methods on getting a Void Egg.? Currently I don’t have that much time to put into getting one due to work but would really like to get a living ship. If anyone would be willing to trade or has extra I would greatly appreciate it.

It makes me a little sad I've had this since day one and never played a single expedition [Discussion]

I was always busy or had rotated off this game for a bit but I'll just never understand why they are strictly timed events and not available ever again.

I don't like the idea of needing to "cheat" by save editing but I have literally no choice because I wasn't paying attention constantly.

I know it'll never change but does dishearten me that I've literally missed out on all of them. Forever.

Sean, really, what's the point. I'd understand licencing issues with some but if the expedition only has content from NMS why lock out players and punish them for not being able to play during that period.

Kinda turns me off playing since when I boot up I see the expedition option and just get a little annoyed

Thanka for tuning into my pointless rant

Losing my mind! [Question]

So don’t you just hate it when you are trying to find all the fauna on a world.. and there is one annoying one?!

Re-Finding a Monolith [Question]

I’m trying to use a portal to get close to the center of the galaxy. I found a monolith today and needed to procure a dagger to offer to the monolith so I could find a portal. Left to get a dagger and lost the monolith. Any way to find it again? I don’t see it marked on any of the planets I was on.

I Found Likholu Cycler in 2025! [Discussion]

Greetings travelers! I am here today to tell you that I found Likholu Cycler! I found it on accident by trying to join a friend in multiplayer by exiting the anomaly. Instead of taking me to his system, it took me to the Likholu Cycler system.

I knew nothing of the system at the time (2 days before the time of this posting), but when I couldn't find my friend, I knew something was amiss. I went to the space station to check for silver (I check every system because I'm working on a massive freighter build), and found residual goop and rusted metal instead. Delighted to make a few nanites, I grabbed the maximum stacks of both... but it didn't seem to work. I thought it lagged so I tried again. It is making the purchase sounds, but the store isn't running out. Confused, I leave the space station to see where I'm at on the galaxy map. My friend was nowhere to be found, but we were in discord, so we were talking about it. Imagine my shock when I open the map to find I'm in the middle of the galaxy. This isn't where I parked my car!

I tell my friend to join me as soon as possible through the anomaly repositioning technology. He comes to collect his unlimited green slime. He also notices the guild doesn't run out either. They are handing out free multitool expansion slots. This means unlimited money - units and nanites

Bugs I've experienced include but are not limited to:

-getting there in the first place.

-shops and guild do not run out of stock.

-unable to reach my base through teleporter - space station access only

I googled the star system and found most of the information is quite old. I hear other travelers lose their freighters entirely there. Some fall through the planets when walking around. Some get stuck there forever. There seems to be a number of different ways travelers have reached this place.

If you find me in game, I can take you there. I...

Returning Player [Information]

Hello!

I haven't played in about four years, but I absolutely loved the game when I did, logging over 300 hours back then. I think I stopped playing when Frigates and Living Ships were introduced, but I did experience those. I’ve just started a new save, so it feels like I’m learning everything all over again. Is there anything important I should know as a returning player from that long ago? I know there's a lot ahead of me, but I'm curious if there’s anything I should be sure not to miss. Changed mechanics, new mechanics etc. World gen already looks amazing compared to before! I’m not too worried about spoilers!

How do i play with my friend. [Question]

Hi everyone, I’m new to No Man’s Sky and I want to play with my friend, but we’re not sure what we need to do to play together. If someone could explain, I’d really appreciate it.

For clarification, I’ve watched a few videos online, but I’m still confused. They all say to enable multiplayer, and then I should be able to see my friend’s save (or world—I’m not sure how it works) so we can play together. But that doesn't happen. We enable multiplayer and yet we can't see our saves(words).

I just want to ask: is there some kind of quest or requirement that prevents us from playing together right away?

Capital Freighter Hunting [Question]

Heyo! I've just started trying to hunt for an S- or A-Class Freighter, but all the tutorials explain what to do if you already encountered the one you want in a battle.
I looked up some coordinates for a Resurgent class freighter, and used a portal to get there, but now what?
Of course it takes a few attempts and at least 3 hours until you get a Freighter battle, but how can i get the timing right, so the battle happens in the system where the freighter i want spawns?

Thanks in advance!

What is the current expected lifespan of the game so far? [Discussion]

I've gathered that Hello Games hasn't said much about when, or how they plan to sunset NMS, but does anyone have any idea what they may be looking for to determine "when it is time" and maybe how they might go about it? With this "Stop Killing Games" thing going on, I sort of like the idea of being able to run a server instance locally and continue playing if HG decides it's no longer worth the effort to keep the game up. I'm still enjoying it, even if I don't really have much idea what I'm doing.

Was there a free online weekend? [Question]

I’m confused, I do not have PSN (as far as I can see) and never have since playing the game for the first time. However, over the past weekend I was able to see and interact with people in the Anomaly. Am I going crazy? Did I imagine it all?

Faulty power generation [Bug]

https://preview.redd.it/h090gqdalgif1.png?width=1722&format=png&auto=webp&s=7a927abfdf183d199deb37018d778f16c446e8d7

Basically, I've got like 40 electromagnetic generators, maybe 120 solar panels and like 100 batteries connected into one system to power a bunch of mineral extractors, a portal and some other stuff. However, the system keeps breaking and running out of power and I just don't understand why. Spent good 3-4 hours trying to get it to work, but it just doesn't. Everything is wired properly, everything works when connected to just like 1 battery or so, but when everything gets connected together, batteries just stop working for whatever reason, while actual power generation should exceed usage by like 300%. The base is on an extreme weather world with frequent electrical storms and fire storms. Is there some weird interaction in the game where extreme weather breaks power generation or something? Or is this just some random NMS bug? Playing on latest Steam version.

Day 1 player, 1500 hours later. [Screenshot]

Finally reached the center. What a journey. Pre ordered and played on launch putting about 80 hours in. Such an experience around then just feeling the vastness of the universe and watching the game expand over all these years. I did a lot of virtual photography and base building in my hours and obviously took my sweet time with my journey. Beautiful game. Thank you Hello Games💙

Absolute clown shoes at the archive, tonight. [Screenshot]

The Korvax are data-based entities. They are, necessarily, good at record keeping, in the way that organic beings are "good at thinking": it's kind of the definition of what they are, rather than a skill they're good at.

But that means that when they mess up, they mess up on a titanic scale. It was already bad enough that they heard that a Traveler was coming and didn't bother to check that every Traveler they heard from was the same one before booking us all for the same landing zone.

But it's rare to see even one Fourth Race out in the world, let alone two of them, and that threw the whole thing into chaos. I don't know if they were different iterations of the same person or members of the same species, which I think is okay since I have only ever seen these two. But neither of them were in a good mood. The bigger one tried to attack me with a sword, which is new.

Anyway, we got it sorted eventually. It was an interesting diversion, if nothing else. Probably more fun than just dropping off the artifacts and leaving would have been.

Some noob questions [Question]

I’ve been playing for a few days but have some questions!

Can I change the layout of my freighter? Like move the rooms and hallways etc?

How can I get more spaces in the technology part of my suit?

Is the multitool and gun/weapon the same thing? If I buy a new gun, that’s a new multitool….right? Very confused on that

The ‘free’ freighter I got from rescuing it doesn’t have much storage space. How do I get another one? or can I own more than one? Or do I trade mine in for a new one?

The second ship you get….the yellow one…Is that worth fixing up? or should I trade it in for another or sell it?

The difference between classes….can someone please explain that to me? c class, b class etc

Thankyou!

Expedition REDUX rewards [Question]

Ok so I did the GitHub expedition redux save file edit thing so I could start from the beginning. My question is can I collect the rewards for each milestone in my other save or is that just apply for the final reward for completing the expedition? In this case it’s Expedition 1 so it would be the Golden Vector ship? Thanks in advance.

New player and noob question [Question]

Hello, Im certain this has been asked before, but Im stupid and I haven't been able to understand the information clearly, so apologies:

How many modules upgrades of the same class can you have in your spaceship and exosuit?

I've seen people that has some A and x3 S class modules and some X modules as well, but everytime I try to add another A module (I have x3 S modules), an overload message appears.. so what Im doing wrong? Why some people can add more or am I missing something?

Nms on switch 2 is broken [Bug]

Decided to hop back into the switch 2 version of NMS and start a new save. Turns out that it's broken right now. Constant issues with textures, slow loading, and now whatever this is in the menu. It's literally different every time I open it. Is this happening on other editions? If not I'll switch back to PC for now.

Banelings! [NMS-IRL]

I’ve been on this planet for several days and the bugs there kept reminding of something but I couldn’t figure out what… and then it clicked tonight.

New player, any tips? Also have a question [Question]

New player here, going in blind so far and was wondering if y'all had any tips or tricks?

Also as I was exploring I found a damaged ship. I wanted to fix it so I made a base near it and started work on it, I had to add it to my collection to do so. Teleported to another base for a moment and when I came back my broken ship was gone. What happened to it? How do I continue working on fixing it?

Creature storage possibility? [Question]

Since we have got weapon racks, and can store ships in the freighter now, what are the chances that we will get some cryo-sleep storage for our creatures to get around the slot limitations?

I have many that I have juiced the eggs and would like to keep them but then I find others that look awesome and I have to make tough decisions about who to let go to make space.

Feature request: send exploration frigates to scan missing fauna (looking at you, rare underground "always active") [Suggestion]

Either make it another off-screen timer or have it fly into orbit and highlight/spawn unscanned fauna for the player to scan manually.

Similarly, it would be great if it was possible to send industrial frigates to highlight high class mineral, gas, and electricity hotspots. Scan → hop into ship → fly for a few seconds → land → scan again gameplay loop doesn't do it for me tbh.

Monolith won’t give portal location [Question]

I recently discovered a base created 9 years ago, within the valley is that trade outpost and a conveniently placed Gek Monolith hidden inside the trees. I have a Gek Relic in my Exosuit inventory, great. I looked up the answer to the riddle and my player got hurt.. I never actually got to see the text that came from my option of waiting, just froze for a second so it could’ve been a glitch? I tried to click the monolith again because I’ve heard you have to TWICE, but do i have to leave the game or something? I used the radar on the Exosuit to discover two more alien structure monoliths and i definitely got those right, it won’t give me the coordinates or let me use them more than once so what am i doing wrong if i have the gek relic?

Genex Tower, Belgrade, Serbia [NMS-IRL]

My latest base project, Genex Tower / Кула Генекс, it's a real building located in the Novi Beograd district in Belgrade, Serbia. It's considered one of the icons of the city, so much so, that it's often called the "western city gate", but it's not in the best condition, the lower tower, originally used by a company named Genex, is nowadays abandoned, although the building is still supplied by electricity due to the fact the taller tower, which shows an ad of Zepter International at the top, is residential, and holds many apartments. At the top of the building, there's a bar, which originally was supposed to spin, but it never did. Nowadays it's said that it's just as abandoned at the tower it stands on.

My recreation contains the main aspects of the building, although i took the creative liberty of giving the bar some life, after all it's the most interesting place of the skyscraper and has the Best views of Belgrade! Additionally, i used resized base parts to make a background for the building, it was stranding on air due to the nature of the build, so i built the city around it, it's supposed to be a filler, not an area to explore, so keep that in mind, the only area one is supposed to be is around the square where the skyscraper stands, but of course you could take some pics around! xD

With that said, i'd like to remember those interested in visiting the tower that the entrances to the bar and the apartment are positioned in opposite directions, the bar entrance is behind the lower tower, noticeable by it's glass entrance, and the entrance to the apartment is below the taller tower of the two, on the left side of the entrance (the center of it leads to the ventilation hole of the building)

So just a observation... [Discussion]

First off sorry about the lack of a image here.

Now when I was streaming the game yesterday on a new playthrough I been doing. I started going around looking for a sentail ship as I had the item that helps you find the camp to locate one in my inventory.

I had to go to 3 different discordant systems before it stops saying single not found system. My working theory is that there has to be a space station in the system for it to work, as the ones where it didn't work had no space station.

So am wondering if this a bug, or just how it is now.

Is there a trick for underwater exploring? [Question]

I’ve tried going into water a few times on a couple different planets and every time I feel like I just end up panicked with no idea which way is up or where to find land/how to get out. It’s so disorienting, I’m sure it didn’t help that one of the bodies of water I hopped in was calm at first but when I tried to emerge there were MASSIVE mountain sized waves.

Is this just a personal thing? Maybe I’m just not cut out for the deep sea exploration but wondering if there are any tips out there to make it a more enjoyable experience.

Why am I mining uranium out of a cadmium deposit??? [Bug]

I have never experienced this bug before, but now it happened. Each of my five mining units placed on this deposit started mining ammonia after managing to extract around 100 units of cadmium each. I thought that this way, these deposits were basically infinite, since I had no problem working with these before. Btw this is a toxic planet, which also has ammonia deposits all around the place. BUT I ALREADY HAVE MINING UNITS ON AN AMMONIA DEPOSIT, WHY WOULD I NEED EVEN MORE WHEN I PLACED THESE CLANKERS ON A CADMIUM DEPOSIT???

This game just gave me a heart attack. Never going underwater again [Discussion]

I bought this game last week and I've already played for 34 hours. I've warped 16 times, so that's a lot of planets. I've encountered a lot of "creepy" stuff, like a glitched cabled planet, eerie desolate moons, etc. But I realized that this game is not really that scary (I'm one of those people who can't play scary games at all) until I encountered my first "water" planet (actually a grassy planet with a giant red ocean) ...

As soon as I get into orbit, I realize that there's no ground for miles and miles, so I fly for like 5 mins until I find a small island that could barely fit 2 or 3 ships. I land and start analyzing plants underwater. I get a little creeped out by some big worms that fly in and out of the water, but at least they weren't aggressive. I get overconfident and swim away from my ship, that's when I heard the LOUDEST SOUND IN THE WORLD, like a fucking T rex just roared at the back of my head. I turn around, and this thing that looks like the eater of worlds from Terraria emerges from the water.

At this point, my mouse is shaking like I have severe parkinsons while at the same time I'm trying to swim back to my ship. That's when pirates decided to join the battle and finish me off, which honestly I'm thankful for because they ended my misery instead of having to look at that big ass worm again. I revive back at my ship and just nope the fuck out since I'm playing survival anyways and all my stuff is gone. I read somewhere that oceans in this game are mostly chill and peaceful. Nope, never going to one of those ever again. I hope there's not like a rare resource I need from them.

I went back to the planet for pictures. I stayed for a while, but the giant worm never showed up again, and I'm not getting in the water again to test it....

Any Way to Salvage my Save File(PS4 to PS5) [Question]

Wondering if theres any way to get my save back without having to rebuy the PS4 version again.

How to tame any creature? (specifically water creatures) [Question]

Before I begin, let me preface by saying that yes, I'm aware of the untamable creatures. Additionally, I have indeed attempted to download the Companion Pet Unlocker mod that everyone references here.

HOWEVER,

for some reason, I can't get it to work, and I have plenty of experience downloading mods, so this isn't a new concept to me either (could still be user error, of course, but I don't know what I could be doing wrong in this instance). I just really want a seahorse, man.

Can anyone help me figure out if that mod is still functional or if any other sources allow previously untamable creatures to be tamed? I would be eternally grateful.

Some questions about the game, started playing recently, 40 hours in already, but have some questions [Discussion]

I just started playing recently, I'm already with 40 hours, same save, I'm playing on switch 1.

But I have some questions about the game, if anyone can help me here.

1: how can I get better ships? In 40 hours the best one I found was a fighter ship class A, I used it till now, and just bought a little better one, but also class A.

2: I know there's a way to create your own city, village or something? But how can I do that? I haven't found any way to do this.

3: and to complement the 1 question, is there any way to find better cargo ships? The one I have is good, class B or something, but I wanted some better one, mainly to build my base there, I have plans to change to another galaxy, and don't want do build everytime a new base on new planet, so, building the base on the cargo ship would be much better.

4: what happens if I change to a new galaxy? I know you will loose everything, except the ships, cargo ships, and also the base on the cargo ship, but is there anything else that changes? And also, can I always change to a new galaxy? Or there's a limit? I know the game has 256 galaxies, or something.

5: changing galaxies would be the equivalent of a NG+?

And last...

6: does the itens I find to buy, I mean, the multi tools, ships, cargo ships etc... scale with something? Because with 40 hours I I'm stuck with a class A ship, and doesn't really have anything that good. The more I play, the better the things i get? Or it's just luck?

I would like to sort of restart all possible questlines to run through them in Eissentam, tried google and it said that i can go to Polo or Nada and they will trigger Artemis quest again, but they only greets me and all i can obtain is black hole address.

Is there a way to "start fresh" with questlines in Eissentam?
If not - if i start new game and speed run to center of galaxy (btw - is the trick with all signs being first symbol still works?) ignoring questlines, do i get quest markers in new galaxy or in starting galaxy anyway?

Freighter under pirate attack keeps disappearing [Bug]

Upon warping into a system, sometimes there’s a pirate attack on a freighter. In the cases of the ship attacks (not the dreadnought) on the trade freighter, the entire scene will disappear mid battle approximately 80% of the time.

One commonality I noticed is whatever mission is highlighted in my log will display its message (like coordinates found, or just a reminder of what’s needed to complete the mission) at the time everything disappears.

I read this has been a common problem. Has anyone figured out how to consistently avoid this happening?

Decided to come back to an old save. Checklist or advice please! [Question]

Just kinda overwhelmed by all I have going on. Really I just wanted to avoid doing all the main questline stuff again.

This playthrough is only 50 hours old, perma. It’s already seen the center once. I’m feeling as though I can’t wrap my brain around all the tech I have.. all the bases I’ve made. All of it. It’s a lot.

Does anyone have like.. a checklist or advice to take stock of what’s going on and get footing? It’s almost exhausting to look at.

Proper Racing mini games and PvP dogfights [Suggestion]

I love everything hello games has done in terms of the Exocraft racing building parts, but there’s a couple key changes which I think could be really cool to overhaul how players race and interact with other player’s courses.

I would love to see Hello games add a kiosk or special station at the nexus where players can select from other player’s built race courses based on popularity. they could see high scores and leaderboards and race their friends/ghosts. Basically a Mario kart mode for Exocraft racing.

Something like that could really tie together the Exocraft gameplay and create a whole competitive branch of nms players. It would also help to show off some of the coolest bases.

I also think something like 1v1 or 2v2 competitive spaceship dogfights would be a really cool addition.

Similar idea with the players selecting this option at the nexus. Then spawn 2 players on a mountain planet or water planet and have them have a death match with 3 lives each where they can’t leave the system and have markers on them so players can track each other.

I imagine these modes as having a “custom” exocraft/spaceship option for players to use their own ship or a “premade” Exocraft/spaceship option for more competitive and fair mode.

lmk what you guys think and whether or not you’d like a change like this

Portal address on screenshot from within a station takes me to a system with no station?? [Question]

I'm dying to get this exotic, and for some reason when I travel to this system via a portal using the address in the screenshot, the system has no station in it!?

There is only one planet that's has a single moon, and the planet is one of the [REDACTED] ones (extreme weather)

Does this mean that during one update when those planets were added it reset this system? Screenshot is from March 29 2025.

Am I trying to access this portal address from the wrong Galaxy? (I didn't think that mattered...)

Exocrafts + Scale Glitch = smol vehicles but BIG fun! [Screenshot]

Kinda new-ish on the game but deeply immersed, luv it so much; discovered recently the Scale Glitch and having so much fun with it: so convenient to downsize a tad the short-rage teleporters, save buttons & beacon while working on a base, but mostly miniaturizing all vehicles and becoming Lilliputian sized, and it seems therefore so fast to drive !!

Unfortunately, the Minautor doesn't scale down so far, and another hitch: when you reload the game or a save, vehicle reset to standard size, but the bas is still smol, so one have just to summon them again and zoom-zoom, that's it !!!

I feel like we need a major update for exocrafts. [Discussion]

The Minotaur is by far my favorite exocraft, although I hardly ever use it for fighting or exploration. I feel as though it can not keep up with a players growth. I’m already at the point where I can easily survive in any climate or win any battle with ease without the assistance of the Minotaur in survival.

In the early game it was a massive advantage as it was able to keep me safe from the elements while exploring, and gathering resources. It was a much greater source of dmg, while I still lacked a good weapon, It is also surprisingly fast with jumping long distances, and it even acted as a second inventory that can walk along side me, without having to call my ship.

The minotaur was all that I used early in the game, and even half way through the game, but as you start to get maxed out as a player, you start to very easily out dmg the Minotaur as well as your survivability becomes better than the walking metal mech. With a freighter your inventory becomes massive, and the inventory on the freighter can be accessed from anywhere so long as it’s in the same system.

At that points the Minotaur become more of burden than any sort of help. Even getting the flame thrower doesn’t improve it by much. It gets damaged to easily, and the damage it does its self is is not all that much compared to the dmg the player can do late game. its best use is becoming a distraction as much as I hate to say it.

I feel as though the Minotaur needs a massive update. For example, inventory expansion slots, new and unique upgrade modules, it’s own personal forcefield that it can deploy around a specific area, some sort of new weapons or abilities, a way to get better super charged slots positions, and definitely a camera rehaul as it really sucks imo.

I just want to still be able to use the Minotaur late into the game, and have it as better option in place of...

I accidentally turned on "free recharge" for fuel and shields in normal mode. Does this have any consequence? [Question]

I started the game in normal mode and only spend 15hours so far. I didnt know about fuel, was on a planet where I couldnt find any, got frustrated and turned off the need for fuel. All within the first 2 hours of my playthrough.

Hyaline Brain question [Question]

I have the brain, 3 radiant shards, and an inverted mirror in my inventory. I am unable to probe the brain to find the monolith. Tried quitting the game and reloading, tried going to another dissonant planet (how I ended up with two ships).

There is nothing in the Log for it. So no quest to select.

However, I can claim the ship and use it. I have two salvage ships this way. Both done on different planets.

Are you supposed to be able to claim it without a harmonic brain or as in my case no brain installed in the ship? Has anyone ran into something similar?

this game is great and this community has been incredibly helpful [Question]

Firstly, thanks to everyone who had the patience to answer my beginner questions in my previous posts.

I'm 14 hours in and averaging about 3 hours a day. I dont think theres a better way to end my summer vacation. I often find myself ignoring the main quest and going off to explore on my own. I've compiled some more questions and included my favorite screenshots.

should I sell tritium clusters? I'm not short on tritium but I am short on money. How about my 2000 pcs of gold? I'm playing on no environment damage and plenty of resources so I dont need solar panels, but damage and prices are normal.

on a new planet I saw what looked like a red imperial probe droid with a sentinel tag on it. I hid underground but it didnt go away, so I just quickly summoned my ship and flew off. what would have happened if it caught me?

should I save or use nanites? I've so far only spent them on a gold jetpack upgrade, a green ship primary weapon upgrade, and 2 pet slots.

how difficult is a fugitive starship to destroy (150k reward)? is it harder or easier than 2 sentinel fighters that chased me when I interacted with a sentient plant?

in the first picture, which ones on the bottom row on the right can I sell?

in the second and 3rd picture, is it worth it to recover this wrecked ship?I'm still on the starter ship. I checked and I can repair everything except for some radiation leaks that needs these 2 resources that I havent heard of.

where can I get blueprints for base parts with windows? is it the anomaly? the ones I researched on my device seem to all have no windows. and is there a quicker way to unlock base parts than to dig up lost technology one by one?

the rest of the pictures are my best moments so far. the name of the butterfly is a reference to another game which maybe someone can pick up....

Fellow PC Travelers, what are your optimal graphical settings? [Question]

Hey everybody, It’s not often that I post here 😅 I’ve been playing NMS for years at this point. Started on PS5 but loved the game and the dev team support over the years so I’ve bought it on Steam to play on Pc and my steam deck.

I usually just fly about on the ship while I’m playing on SD but it always motivates me to fire up the ol’ PC to experience the full graphical fidelity this game has to offer. I never bothered about PC game settings till I came across this guy pushing his GPU to the max in NMS (https://youtu.be/xp-CwvMv9wU?si=f7F-iw0wkPRNCBEB) and that got me wondering - how hard can we push the graphics while not losing FPS.

Please share your setups and graphics settings for PC as well as VR. I just got a PSVR2 (with adapter) only for NMS but I may need a better GPU to get the most out of it. I’d love to see what kind of setups and settings you guys are rocking!!

Cheers🥳

We should be able to build a Golf Course as part of a base. [Discussion]

I was flying around the planet I have a settlement and base on and noted how inviting it was. It is the sort of place where you would just like to go for a walk. Then it hit me, I wish there was a golf course here.

We can fish. We can build a race course. Why can't we golf? I would be fun to get a few friends together and play 18 holes. Imagine playing golf on a low gravity moon. Tournaments. Putt-Putt.

We'd need some new building parts, Tee, Green, Hole/Flag, Sand Trap, and a Multitool editing mode to help shape them subtly. ... and a set of clubs. Golf Cart? You would possibly need a fairway tool to "permanently" remove rocks, depressions, and plants simply by placing markers on the ground to define the hole - sort of a cleaner, leveler tool.

Oh, and we'd need at least a 2x increase in base part limits (6000+ instead of 3000 as well as 32000 vs 16000)

Money makers I wish I knew & other beginner tips [Discussion]

SPOILER CONTENT: This post spoils the existence of ship types and minor crafting mechanics. I recommend a fully blind playthrough if you are a beginner (also do not read efficiency guides)

Disclaimer! NMS absolutely is an sandbox game, and most fun when explored at your own pace. It would be a bit ironic to tell you that you are playing a sandbox game wrong, but seriously, if you find yourself not enjoying the game, chances are you have to slow tf down. This is not Satisfactory or a trader sim, and although it can be played in that way, you will find yourself speedrunning through the eco in a few hours and then be finished with the "empty" game; it is not difficult to break the economy in a variety of ways. That being said, some people might still enjoy a liiittle bit more minmaxing mixed in with their vibin exploration or you just really want to afford that S class fighter asap, and for those people is this post.

I'm playing the PC version of BEACON 5.75 and assume permadeath ressource management, on different difficulties your mileage may vary. Specifically the building of farms makes much more sense if you are not playing with a pd inventory.

I think the game needs to show existing supply level when buying [Discussion]

Like the title says, I think it would be nice to know how much of something you have when you’re purchasing something from a trade terminal or NPC.

For example, I needed ferrite dust and hadn’t set up a rusted metal mine yet. I didn’t feel like manually mining so I started buying it (I had just sold a salvaged ship at the time and had some units to spend). I didn’t know how much I had unless I left the trade window, opened my inventory, and checked for the item. When you leave a trade window with an NPC, they may leave before you can open it back up.

I think when you hover over the item but haven’t chosen to buy yet, it should show how much you currently have (if any). It’s a minor thing but I think it would be helpful

Superslot RNG? [NMSTG Hub Region (xxxx01DDF571)]

So how is Superslot layout decided for interceptors?

Could anyone explain the generation of the Superslot layout? I found the perfect Interceptor design for me, but its in low economy, pirate system. So im having a hard time finding one with a decent Superslot layout. It is indeed random for each ship location, but there is a trend of the same slots being supercharged. So how does it work? Ive searched 100+, and so far the best combo has been at best 8 slots apart. Its is indeed a terrible spread over 80% of the time with 1 at each end, and 2 usually in a few slots apart the middle. Im losing hope for finding a decent layout. When its spread like that, is it even possible for me to get lucky?

My first thought was someone in the anomaly gave it to her? Bc that's where she logged off last she played, and I genuinely have no clue how else this stuff would have just appeared. My only real doubt is that it's such a strange assortment of items.

Any better guesses?

Power Grid management Menu?Empty all Silo option? [Suggestion]

Every time I load up the game, the first thing I do is spend 1 full hour, warping to every base and individually refill every biofuel reactor. I have so many bases that individually doing all this refueling and emptying my silos is becoming a lot of work. Would anyone else feel like some type of “Power grid management menu” would be something that would benefit us all? It would say something like “This is how much total fuel you are using in X amount of time, and current total cost to refuel all reactors is X amount. Refill all?” (This would require some type of new technology to be installed, because if we can now warp exocrafts to our location anywhere in the galaxy, why can’t we warp fuel directly into our reactors?)

The Silo management menu could be something like “ X inventory slots required to empty all silos, resources granted are X.” Or even have silos be able to be connected to a storage box via a supply pipe, but still only be able to emptied manually ( as to not over simplify) but still from a distance.

Anyone? Thoughts? Concerns?

I know I would have a lot more fun exploring for that extra hour than just mindlessly refilling and emptying everything one at a time.

Or if it’s a stupid idea let me know, and let me know why.

Sentinels Never Lose Aggro? [Question]

Every time a sentinel aggros on me, it seems to be permanently locked onto me. No amount of distance makes them switch to searching mode, killing a wave and running or hiding doesn't result in them searching, and they'll even follow me from one planet to another if I get in my ship and fly away. Only way I've found to lose aggro altogether is dying or going into a space station.

Is this intentional, am I missing something? I'm not on a world with inherently hostile sentinels either, just normal ones that aggro on me for attacking certain facilities or when they catch me harvesting stuff.

Android 16 easter egg. [Discussion]

I just now played the little space game easter egg and it's very similar to what I would expect a ColecoVision version of NMS. 16? It even has a display with info about the planets you land on in the same way NMS does with ridiculous categories.

It's seems to similar to not have some sort of influence.

This boss is bugged and it won’t give the jellyfish helmet [Bug]

I’ve been trying to get the jelly fish helmet for several months now, and every time I fish up this boss and fight it, the jellyfish helmet never drops. Is it RNG based or is this boss still not fixed even though it’s been out for a while now? I’m not sure if other people have the same issue, but I’ve been desperately trying to get it, and nothing worked.

Newbie trying to make money. It aint much but it's honest work [Discussion]

Don't know if this is even a good way of making money, but it's the best I've found as a relatively new player. I TP to a base on a forsaken planet with very low gravity (crucial for travel speed), and then I just go around grabbing every single egg, sac, and mysterious data I come across. This inventory took me around 30-40 mins to get, and I sold everything for 18m since one of the fossils was worth almost 3m. There are probably way better ways of making money, but this is fun and enough to start buying some extra freighters.

Is this decent, or should I try a different method?

Comparison of multitool damage and scan radius [Information]

To make this comparison, I gathered a C Class multitool of every type I have come across, including two experimental because one looked like a pistol and the other like a rifle, just in case that mattered. They all had their machengan stripped down to just scanner, analysis visor, mining laser, and boltcaster. These are the attributes I recorded on all of them:

https://preview.redd.it/usfh1a5baxif1.png?width=340&format=png&auto=webp&s=99f2a61d0b1ef398b90f6659385ee2ed4d62714a

Now I know that exact values vary from one multitool to the next, but I don't know how much they vary and I didn't bother to get tons of examples of any one type just to find out.

In the bottom section of the chart, you can see values from the two C-Class pistols I got--I bought both because they were the same model but rolled a bit different. I upgraded them both to B-Class just to see what would happen, and it wiped their differences and set them to the exact same.

I also saw a Rifle type multitool which was barely bigger than a pistol; it didn't have a boltcaster attached but I did note that its scan radius was just a bit higher than most rifles.


Conclusions from this data:

A.) Pistol seems to have less damage than rifle but more scan radius.

B.) Experimental may or may not vary by shape or size; their damage seems a bit better than pistol/rifle but their scan radius is the highest of all multitools.

C.) The Sentinel and Atlantid multitools are stronger overall than Pistol/Rifle; a tier comparable to Experimental but with more damage and less scan radius.

D.) Alien and Voltaic Staff are even stronger than Sentinel/Atlantid; Voltaic Staff is the strongest multitool overall but may not always have better damage AND scan radius than other multitools.

E.) The Alien multitool that I got is some kind of pistol; I have no idea if that even makes a...

Update suggestion [Suggestion]

I'm sure many of us would enjoy some new life breathed into our freighters. I propose some sort of living quarters activities. Poker, pool, darts, some quirky mini-game stuff Sean and co might come up with.

Imagine seeing your crew chilling at the bar, hustling at pool etc. Having a place to entertain guests would be a nice and simple way to make freighters feel more alive.

Game performance on Steam deck [Question]

Im considering getting a Steam deck(Lcd most likely as its roughly 160-170dollars cheaper), and im wondering if the game runs well (or att all) In planing on playing No mans sky, trailmakers and Beamng.Drive on the go and i know beam runs on the Steam deck and trailmakers aint a very heavy game, i get about 70-90 fps on my pc in trailmakers and 45-70 in beam and i dont know what i get in nms but it looks really pretty at least, and it is a big deal for me that is runs because i Play nms alot with a friend i. Played it at least 2 hours every day since i got the game about 4-5 wheels ago, though i want on vacation for 2 weeks and have been away this week to, i have two saves with 35 and 45 hours on. So if any of you know how it runs on the Steam deck or if it runs att all, please let me know, il be very thankful. 😁

Nanites and How to Get Them [Information]

Since I regularly comment this information to other posts, figured I would share as a separate post the many different ways to build up your supply of nanites. List contains ways not previously mentioned in my comments as well. They are in no particular order. Minor spoilers, for those who like to discover things on their own, may be ahead.

If you have a good source of units, visiting pirate systems and buying all Suspicious Packets (Arms) and Suspicious Packets (Tech), then opening those to sell the X-class upgrade modules will get you a decent amount of Nanites. Visit a few pirate stations, then you can teleport between them all picking up packets. They also sell a number of other items that refine into Nanites, see below.

Many things refine to Nanites: Radiant Shards (50ea), Inverted Mirrors (95ea), Hyaline Brains (230ea), Larval Cores (50ea), Hadal Cores (50ea), Flesh Rope (50ea), Vile Spawn (50ea), Tainted Metal (2ea), Salvaged Data (15ea), Platinum (35:1) all refine to nanites. Hypnotic Eyes refine to 50 Living Slime, see junk chain below.

Junk refining chain: Cursed Dust > Residual Goop > Viscous Fluid > Living Slime > Runaway Mold > Nanites

If you need both Nanites and units, going to a dissonant system and collecting crashed Interceptors to scrap is a good option. You will get a bunch of items to sell for units, a few upgrade modules to sell for nanites, and may even get some Storage Augmentations to add space to your ships. Plus many of the items on dissonant planets refine to nanites, as listed above.

Harmonic Camps on dissonant planets. The wheelbarrows around the camp can contain items that refine to nanites, like Tainted Metal. They can also contain other useful items, like storage expansion items for your various inventories. They also have a multi-tool that can be claimed and scrapped or used, and a terminal that can be used for locating crashed...

Well that sucks… [Discussion]

We ordered some food last night and I got in my ship and hit the PS button when it got here. I figured I was gonna jump back on after dinner but we ended up chilling and going to bed right after. I jump on today and I have a grave beside me and tech damaged. Nothing in my exosuit of course, so I pick up my grave. Nothing… I got nothing! I had just landed on this new planet right before dinner got here. Didn’t realize that the sentinels were so daunting, but I think they killed me once when it was logged in still, and then when I turned it on, I was getting destroyed and killed me again because I walked away not realizing, and they killed me again! And of course the second grave had nothing… Welp, guess I’m collecting resources again. Man, I was set up for casual travel and building. Struggle is real hahaha!

Weird event. [Bug]

I found a paradise grade planet in a yellow Gek controlled solar system. While I was scanning the flora, fauna and minerals, I got shot be a ship, seemingly following me. After around 15 minutes of getting permanentely shot at, I called my own ship, took off, and ended whomever shot at me. Weird thing though: even though my hud showed me the red arrow that it's a enemy, Iost 1 reputation with the Gek (I had 5/9). I landed the ship again but I got relentlesly attacked by sentinels, in a constant, never ending stream, even though that planet has no sentinels. Probably the system authorities, because I killed the gek whom shot at me for quarter of a hour. When I managed to get back into my ship, I left the planet's atmosphere, and gone back again, and everything was peaceful. Is this a event, or a bug, or are just some Gek into banditry in that system, even though it has no conflicts?

I added some funny screenshots of Sid from Ice Age and my Clownasaurus IT I found lol just because it makes me smile so maybe it will make you guys smile too ☺️☺️.

I really wish we had more than 18 fauna pet slots. In a game that’s literally limitless and now has breeding animals, 18 slots is ridiculously limiting. I know that seems like a lot on paper, but honestly it fills up fast, especially if you have intentions of breeding. I’ve been playing since 2016 and since they added the breeding I was so excited, but it was quickly hampered by the slot limitations.

The breeding becomes especially difficult when you constantly have to delete rare or awesome pets you adore because you quite literally can’t add more. I know I’ve seen other posts about this, but please HelloGames, just add some more slots 🙏🏼🙏🏼🥺🥺. How do you guys feel about it?

The Stellarator and Runaway Mold [Discussion]

I woke up this morning an was reading a post about general tips for players. I can't locate the post but will try to later an reply there as well.

However, the topic of The Stellarator came up and it's 65% mining resource increase. This was news to me as I've never made or used that recipe. I don't mine much anymore but thought, I wounder how that would work in my Runaway Mold farm, so I gave it a shot.

OMG!!! I tested mining mold with out the buff in the ingestor and one run gave me about 5,500 mold. After ingestion, I mined over 18k. WOW.

My farm is setup with a teleport system that I pop in and it takes me far enough out where I can return to the Runaway mold being ready to mine again. So after one Stellarator and 10 minutes of mining, I had over 20 stacks of Runaway Mold.

There are way too many single use or no use items/materials in the game. [Discussion]

I have been practically addicted to the game since I started playing 2 weeks ago and I have loved every second of it. I just wish there was more re-usability or use cases for all these materials and items.

The Solar Ray? Would be a fantastic item that refines the metal you harvest. Rusted metal deposit? Straight into ferrite. Indium? Chromatic Metal. Instead it's used for a single item in the game and then you can just get rid of it.

Basalt? An actual deposit resource. It's used for 2 items then is never used again

I just got a Hex Core(which is what prompted me to make this post.) and I was wondering what it was used for, looked it up and it's used for absolutely nothing.

I think my biggest ask for the next update, if there is one, for there to be an overhaul to the crafting system. Add more things to craft. Make things have more importance beyond the standard Carbon, Oxygen, Ferrite, Sodium and Chromatic Metal.

I would also ask that they add an eating/drinking mechanic to a survival game mode. Make crafting food important

Extra exploring [Suggestion]

So.. basically I want to have more traction for this idea...

Atm base building parts are more or less for the grabs. Pay some nanites and there you go.

What ifffff You actually have to explore the universe to collect your base building parts.

You have to search your base building parts Zelda BOTW style. There you have to make pictures of weapons, animals and plants so you can find them later on. In NMS, Explore planets, Find a hidden base part or find an already existing build from someone. Take a picture of the part that you like and THEN you can buy and use it.

Thoughts?

No mans sky cosplay. [Discussion]

I've noticed that No Mans Sky as a community barely has any cosplayers. I've only seen one notable cosplay of a traveller a year-ish ago.

It makes me wonder. Why is that? I figured that like the halo community and the mandalorian community, there would be a community here of people cosplaying their travellers. The characters they've created. Is it the complexity? Lack of 3D print files?

I really would like to cosplay my autophage traveller. From a cosplay perspective, it's incredibly complex but achievable. I'd just have to build everything from scratch.

Some thougts about NMS Beyond (v2.01) after 60 hours [Discussion]

What I hates:

Game has been re-released (2019) in totally broken state... I'm playing on CUH-1116A and it crashing, depend of circumstances, after 30s (!) or max hour of gameplay. Mostly risk are extreme weather conditions and when freighter fight is on orbit (does it not unloaded when player reaching planet surface?), or just when player deciding to view shop menu before waiting for all assets loaded first. It seems game suffering for memory leaking and sooner or later, crashing anyway, no matter of precautions taken...

Another serious issues are bugged nearly all quests. I finished successfully only 1st main quest "The Atlas Path" (which BTW returning from time to time until I travel through black hole...) and few specialists one... ALL the rest cannot be progressed at some point. "Ghost in The Machine", stopped at "Expanding Base". I dunno if in such old version it progress after all specialists sub-quests finished or as in modern times, after only two finished. If first case, then this cannot be done due to "Excoraft Technician" not loads on pointed Space Station and indicator shows outer space... and because of "Base Computer Archives" crashing game, always and everywhere, at 74% of completition. "Dreams of the Deep", appearing to early and cannot be finished because no beacon at sunken freighters are implemented in this game version... Some missions can be reset but fixes nothing.

Other bugs, annoying yet minor: Sentinel Freighter cannot be claimed because no captain and its crew is there. Factories hangs on no text to choose and game loop at some point, after few blueprints unlocked ("The installation crackless with blue sparks (...)" is that event which triggering it). Portals are half usable without Artemis questline finish, because player cannot build bases on other side, nor teleport anywhere until he back through the same portal.

Onto an undiscovered planet that was the closest of them all to the center, but the portal closed behind me. I went to reactivate it, it let me enter the resources but just repeats the text right before it lets you enter glyphs.

I recently went there to do the dinner Drone mission on my switch 2 and while I was there someone gave me an item which i can't remember the name of but I don't think it was a reward because it was too good.

Basically when I used the item it gave me like 5 exo suit or ship upgrade slots per use and I had 10 to use. Any idea what this is?

Permadeath trophy bug [Question]

So I just made it to the center of the galaxy and warped to the Hilbert dimension but I did not receive the last 2 trophies for survival and Permadeath modes. Anyone else have this issue or any advice on what to do? Playing the PS5 version on OG PS5. I’m super bummed right now as this was my last hurdle to finish the game as I got the platinum a few years ago and it wasn’t super easy as I took the long way and jumped from system to system to see as much as I could along the way. I checked and did not receive either trophy. I just feel defeated

Am I doing it wrong? [Question]

Ok sooooo I’m quite new to the game only 50-60ish hours in at this point and I’ve started hunting dreadnoughts, I found 3 systems right next to each other that constantly spawn them but I spent 3 hours yesterday hunting and only got C class!?! So I take out the engines and the shields the ship surrenders and I go to check the class and then leave and go on to the next system, what am I doing wrong? Should I be destroying them? I can’t just be that unlucky that for 3 hours I only got C class not even a B or A…..HELP!

How do people get such high hyperdrive distances? [Question]

Not sure if that title even makes sense but I'm a new player who's mainly focused on exploring and finding galaxies. I recently made an explorer craft to do so but, even with an S-Class hyperdrive, it can only travel about 200LY. I'm very curious to know how to travel further distances.

Any help is appreciated.

Tiny/small body sentinel ships~ [Screenshot]

Better shared and enjoyed than horded away, right? Technically the first one is a larger body, but its still a small style ship without the normal wide wings on it. These are my favorite little ships 🩵🛸 1, 10, 15

Not all are Eissantam galaxy! All have glyphs and galaxy in bottom corner. Go to the Anomaly and one of the featured bases at the teleporter should get you to the other galaxy (Eltiensleen) if needed.

Derelict freighter scan glitch [Question]

Not sure if it was the op or someone who used their coordinates but a post was made claiming that this planet spawns an interceptor with four adjacent sc slots. Go to a portal enter the coords and someone has entombed the portal on the other side with a building and no exits. Oh and it’s a toxic planet. Big sad.

I played the game wrong. [Discussion]

I already got a freighter (why are symmetrical freighters with containers on both sides so rare btw. I wanna upgrade to the same type, but better, and I only find asymetrical ones with fluid tanks or those "modern" looking ones with slanted sides. I want a utility brick. I just love that vibe for a freighter) and a bunch of stuff that I'm unlocking through the story right now. My lowest tier equipment (that I actually use, and ignoring my freighter) is my B Class explorer. Everything else is A tier. And I also have an S Tier Squadron Pilot in the second slot.

My freighter came with a science terminal. I'm already done with the scientist quest line. But I just unlocked (or rather built) the Construction thing today and hired the Overseer. And I literally didn't have normal copper to make Chromatic Metal for the Overseer to unlock the science terminal. Getting new Chromatic Metal from my extractors doesn't count. So I refined Cadmium. That doesn't work either. I could've refined any other tier (I have all Warp drive upgrades for my explorer), but I suspected only copper counts. Refining Activated copper worked tho. Now, I gotta go somewhere to unlock storage containers if I wanna complete the Overseer questline. While he's in a freighter, across from 6 unique storage containers.

This is not supposed to be a "boo hoo I played the sandbox game non optimally", it's just pretty funny.

Let's talk Multi-tools [Discussion]

I got really lucky and someone gifted me a bunch of Multi-tool expansion slots when I first started. I also got lucky to find a pretty cool A class pistol (?). I've added a bunch of different weapons and tools to it, but it gets pretty clunky scrolling through them all as I'm being attacked. Questions and for discussion: What's your favorite weapon and why? I'm playing on a Switch 2, is there an easy way to switch to another Multi-tool (so I could have Multi-tools dedicated to different things)? Is it worth getting a different type of Multi-tool (the rifle type)?

Scaling ruins the fun (isnt rewarding) [Discussion]

Hello everyone,

I know this topic is old, but in my opinion there is no way around it couse a lot of players left the game already and i will probably be one of those too. Thats sad couse the game has so much potential if some bugs/design choices wouldnt make it so hard to enjoy.

Especially one thing, the scaling of enemies when you upgrade your ship to a higher class bothers me the most. I tested everything on different consoles, savegames and scenarios to be sure about what im talking about. And i know that alot of players claim its our imagination and believe they never experienced this issue. To those players: Please test it yourself So here is an example of many:

First ship bought A-Class Explorer: - Damage Potential (Base 33,8) - Damage per shot (Base Weapon 320-640) - No Modules installed

Second ship bought S-Class Exotic - Damage Potential (Base 270,2) - Damage per shot (Base Weapon 1400-3100) - Full S-Class Modules for Base Weapon + 1-2 Supercharge Slots and connected while placed in a row

Scenario: I start a mission on a spacestation to kill pirates. I take the (A-Class) Ship and kill the first enemy to check the damage, attack the second a little and remember the name of the pirateship. Then i fly back to the spacestation to change to the S-Class ship and do the remaining part of the mission. Here are the results:

The first ship melts down the enemys like nothing. 4-5 shots and the shield is gone. After that only 1 rocket destroys the ship. That way you can kill one enemy after another. The second ship however needs to shot easily 5 times as much as the first one to take the shield down. Of course the rocket wont kill the enemy anymore too…

In conclusion, if i want to beat enemies fast, i switch to my A-Class ship couse its way stronger than a S-Class Ship with 20+ modules. I heard that if you play long enough your ship will get strong...

In Game Photos Dark, Setting to Fix it? [Screenshot]

Whenever I take a screenshot using the in game camera thing (hitting x on PC and then selecting the camera) it's extremely dark. The first picture is what I'm seeing and I took it with my phone. Wanted to show my friend the giant sunflower planet as I knew she'd like it so I pull up the in game camera and everything gets dark.

I've fiddled about with all the settings in the camera that comes up but nothing seems to change this and it's been going on for as long as I can remember. I just normally use my phone to take pictures because of it.

This game is endless fighting [Discussion]

I just started playing and basically have been running for my life the entire time. Me and my friend spawned in a place with endless attacks from fauna on planets and in the sky. Everything we interact with sends sentinels attacking us. Every time we leave the planet its nothing but pirate attacks and fugitive attacks. The only place i am not attacked is underwater. I even get attacked outside of trade stations. Lol this game is balls to the wall action. I love the game but i would like to get five seconds of peace to at least look at a planet. I am fighting on planets and in space all the time. Any tips?

Nanites through platinum [Question]

I have looked for efficient ways to get a steady stream of nanites and I saw in the Assistant that platinum refines into nanites and that you can get platinum from iridesite, which can be crafted from basic materials like ionised cobalt, parafinium, phosporus and dioxite in two steps. This way is pure gold for me, I'm interested what others think of it.

Base scientist "adopting" the save beacon?? [Question]

I have somewhere north of 1500 hours in this game across both GoG and Steam. I started up a new 'normal' mode run this week (first new start run in a few years) and am wondering something.

Has the base scientist quests always included the scientist treating the save beacon as its 'child' and sending you on quests to help train it, protect it, reconnect it to the Korvax group mind, etc..?

I remember the scientist quest line being a lot more... boring ... than this.

Ideas for Improving Abandoned Mode [Suggestion]

Now that I've logged hundreds of hours into abandoned mode runs, I wanted to share my top 5 ideas for how to improve the experience. Ability to find and use freighters

Exploration is a big part of abandoned mode. After all, it's just you and all those galaxies! Being able to use a freighter would add a lot to the experience. You'd have a moving base. You'd be able to use the scanner feature to quickly scan all system planets. Maybe the way to implement this would be to find freighters randomly that could be boarded and taken over. Unmanned, so limited capabilities, but upgradeable via derelict freighter runs so that you can still upgrade hyperdrive and equipment. No frigates or missions of course. Improve odds of finding exotics!

In the hundreds of hours and hundreds of distress call ships I've salvaged, I have yet to come across a single exotic ship. Maybe it's my settings?! (Permadeath, max difficulty settings, abandoned mode). A higher chance of finding an exotic ship would give you more reason to spend time looking for them. Improve the anomaly experience

Fix the anomaly experience in abandoned mode. I still see the glitch where I can see someone's staff and nothing else. I can see other ships but no travelers. Missions are available but what does that have to do with abandoned mode? Fix those so the experience feels more... abandoned. We still need the anomaly for things like decommissioning multi-tools, construction, recipes, and adding exosuit inventory space. If all those were possible via space stations and/or base research units, I could even see the anomaly as unnecessary in abandoned mode. But, I think if done right it still has a place and carries the overall theme well. More fauna and thus more nutrient processor opportunities

I know you can find planets that have fauna and that it only happens in maybe one of every 6 planets? More fauna would make...

Lost all inventory [Question]

I got up to answer the door the other day & it took a few minutes leaving me AFK for longer than I intended… I returned to find myself now next to my starship, which I was not before… I was on the brink of death due to the high radiation levels on the planet so I attempted to recharge my hazard protection. I had no batteries… so I check my inventory and it’s empty. Right next to me I notice a death totem, which I’ve only seen once before. I held X without reading , assuming it’d give me my loot back like the only other time I died (in my first hr of playing a few weeks ago). I received nothing… I lost so much , basically all my core materials and some special upgrading stuff too. I looked at the latest saves and they were both the exact minute I’d returned to the game from being AFK, so I had nothing to fall back to. Am I just an imbecile for standing unprotected or did something funky happen?

I just dont understand Ship and Multitool Classes and Stats [Question]

I have looked at hundreds of Multitools and ships and i am still stuck with a B level Tool and B level ship because all others seem to have worse stats than mine.

I know that the class influences the stats as well as the technology and cargo places.
But I only find A or S level Multitools that have far worse stats than my current tool has and the same goes for ships.

I assume the white part of the stats indication bar is its basic stats and the yellow is with upgrades? So even if i subtract the upgrades all of them are just so much worse. I assume each class has its ranges for stats, but how can S class ships and tools have much worse stats than B or C class does???

Switch 2 Appreciation Post [Discussion]

So, for context I'm recovering from a back injury that lead to a surgery, and I hadn't played this game a ton in quite sometime (though I originally bought it on PC back when it first launched).

First of all, can I just say it's impressive as hell how far handhelds have come?? I grew up with a game fear that ate batteries like candy and a game boy color that you had to use a separate magnifying attachment with a light built into it to play Pokémon after dark. This is still kind of wild to me.

Secondly, it's so nice to be able to just lay in bed and have the screen facing me instead of making myself face a TV or monitor. The tablet holder works great for me to actually play comfortably, and I can't think of another platform I can do this with. Love how much they've added to the game, it's so much fun!

What are the pros of upgrading my freighter class? [Question]

I understand the game is what you make it. For me, upgrading my freighter isn't making sense.

I have the first C class freighter that I saved from pirates. So far in my journey, the freighter mostly used as a base hub, frigate expedition machine, and storage unit.

I mostly warp around in my starship. And then summon my freighter where I want it. So I don't see huge hyperdrive benefits.

What else am I missing? What else is great about decked out freighters? Part of this is I don't truly know what else a freighter offers in the deeper experience, so I'm just asking for opinions. I'm not a big base building guy outside of enabling adventuring needs. Thanks!

What’s the obsession with Earth like planets? [Question]

I’m fairly new to the game so this is an genuine question. Why is there so much interest in finding Earth planets? I get that finding some would be interesting, but only if it’s really really similar. Other than familiarity, is there some reason for this interest? (With random storms, worm creatures, etc. I haven’t found these planets to be that much more relaxing or easier to build on.)

Jumping back into a 17h save 3 years later on Switch 2. I'm so overwhelmed. How do I get a handle on everything in this game? [Question]

I played this game on Day 1 and have always had an affection for it, even from the start. I've gotten back into it here and there, and my most recent save was from 2022 where I put in 17h and built a couple bases.

I'm getting back into it on Switch 2 (love playing handheld) but I am terribly overwhelmed with everything. So many resources, so many new mechanics, so many things I could buy or upgrade (ships, multitool, mods). I want to love it so much but I've never been able to get a grasp of everything and into a "groove." I just wanna explore the universe and build bases!

Every "beginner's guide" I read is just like, "go out and explore" and of course I do that but then I'm running out of resources or finding resources that I don't know if I should keep or not, I don't know what to prioritize for upgrades, it's a whole thing.

Any tips for overcoming this feeling?

Returning player after 5 years [Question]

Just Returned to No Man’s Sky After 5 Years — Feeling Completely Lost

Firstly thanks for clicking on the post let's get into it So I’ve just jumped back into No Man’s Sky after a five-year break, and wow… I feel like I’ve crash-landed into a whole new universe. Literally.

I booted up the game, loaded in, and boom — I’m dropped onto a planet crawling with sentinels. No clue where to go, what to do, or even how to do it. I’d forgotten the basic controls, let alone the deeper mechanics. It was like waking up from cryosleep with no memory and a bunch of angry robots watching me.

After stumbling around for a bit, I’ve started to re-learn the basics — scanning, mining, crafting, surviving. But I’m still unsure what I’m supposed to be doing. There’s so much new content, systems, and features that didn’t exist when I last played. It’s honestly overwhelming.

So I’m asking for help — not just advanced tips, but the kind of simple guidance experienced players might take for granted. Any underrated tips that helped you when you were starting out

I’m treating this like a fresh start, because that’s what it feels like. I want to get stuck back in and really enjoy the game again — just need a bit of direction to get going.

Appreciate any advice, and thanks for reading.

Permadeath on Steroids [Question]

If there is a site or list already created, please provide it but I couldn’t find anything doing some searches.

I’m going to start a permadeath build but want to make it even more challenging. I’ve listed some of the limitations but appreciate any advice or other ideas.

The main goal is to get to the center of the galaxy. You can’t leave Euclid until you complete the main story through the purge.

You can only do the top three quests and any side quests related to the top three.

You can submit to Atlas and reset to a new galaxy.

No glitches, exploits or duping. You can only use the starter ship and weapon unless You get one through a quest (e.g. living ship) or if you get it for free through discovery. You can’t use units to purchase a new ship or weapon. You can’t buy any maps but can use any found or rewarded as part of quests. You can’t take out a resonator to get an echo but can use it if you get it as a reward. You can’t use the galactic exchange or vendors on space stations anywhere for buying or selling. You have to do all purchases and selling through pilots, inhabited sites and trade sites but still no galactic exchange. You can refuse up to four freighters but have to take the fifth regardless of ranking if you haven’t taken one. You can trade it for a Dreadnaught but can only refuse it twice and must take the third one regardless of ranking if you haven’t taken one. You can’t purchase any upgrades from the anomaly and have to get them through quests You can trade salvage data for blueprints or recipes. No save scumming restore reloads only if you hit a glitch.

This is just a rough draft and appreciate any other ideas to make this more challenging. I do need to check the settings to see what I can have the game manage.

Thanks for any help

Is there a way to force battles against pirate freighters? [Question]

Hey!

As I stated in the question, I have my A-class pirate freighter, but I would like to get an S-class one when I have the opportunity.

I usually played for 3 hours and then at the next galaxy change I could find a battle against a freighter, but I read that by changing galaxies a lot I can fast forward this and make it appear.

In the video you can see all the galaxies I visited one after the other and it didn't appear, is that bad luck?

The space combat can be infuriating at times [Discussion]

I just have to vent for a second. Am I the only one who finds the space combat in this game to be absolutely rage-inducing at points? All the enemy ships do is FLY IN CIRCLES over and over again, they constantly outfly even your best ships and they'll be in a shuttle with no wings. They just fly in circles and fly in circles making me spacesick. Even if I try to dogfight them without using the lock-on, they just outspeed me and continue to fly in circles. Either that or they slow down to a crawl and just fly in the slowest circles you've ever seen and somehow you still can't hit them because your ship can't turn on a dime like the computer-controlled ones can. It's infuriating.

I was just going from system to system looking for pirate freighters to disable or civilian freighters to rescue. Found a civilian freighter fighting against a dozen pirate starships. Took out all of the pirate starships against one and just as I was about to destroy the last one, I GRAZED the civilian ship's shields and it became hostile to me. All that for nothing, I guess.

My buddy asked me a good question after I crashed out over enemy ships flying in circles, "well, what would you want them to do?" and I don't know. How about anything other than flying in circles would be nice.

PCVR - Frigate Log entries blank? [Bug]

I'm trying to find other PCVR players to confirm the following issues I experience:

Frigate mission logs are blank, so once they've completed the mission, you have to click the trigger 5 times to get the rewards, but logs are not displayed (they work fine on flat screen PC, but not in VR).

Cargo pod raiding of civilian freighters, you fly around the entire ship and cannot see a single cargo item previewed, nor any 'gun' icon that indicates you should 'shoot here' to get the cargo that is meant to be previewed before you shoot.

Haven't played in a while... [Screenshot]

o.O that's a big update

I think the last time I played even somewhat seriously was early 2023, possibly late 2022. I have been halfway keeping up with the community but only as much as my heart can handle without getting my feels hurt that I couldn't play. I spent more than 2 years couch surfing, homeless, job-hopping... but now we're stable again.

Now that I can rejoin the NMS Community in full, is there anything I should focus on learning? Any advice in general? I remember the community being pretty cool overall so, if anyone wants to join me along the way for whatever reason, I'm [cdojs411] on PS4

I’ve been away [Information]

Visited some of my old haunts. My original base is still intact and unchanged filled to bursting with Nip Nip. Some of my run away mold farms are unchanged and I see the market for mold has changed. I also see that my some of my mold farms have changed to Sac Venom. Interesting. The Church of Hirk is now a Sac Venom farm. Once I mine some ore I’ll enclose the sac venom to make farming safer.

What else changed besides the space stations?

Permadeath guidelines [Question]

I want to understand what the parameters are regarding the Permadeath and survival trophies in the pathfinder list. I reloaded my save prior to moving the Hilbert dimension and have tried multiple times to get the trophies to pop by crossing over but nothing. I deleted the entire game and redownloaded and still nothing. Do you have to complete the storyline? Or can you just race to the center? I got far enough to unlock the anomaly and just raced to the center. I checked the guides and they’re very ambiguous and don’t really explain what parameters are required. The only setting I changed when creating my Permadeath save was locking the difficulty setting. I don’t want to start over at this point as I’m just burnt out after wasting all this time.

Today I Learned DAY 1:you can swap multi-tool modules & tame fauna to fight for you [Information]

Every day I seem to learn something new in No Man’s Sky, so I’m going to start posting the things I pick up along the way.

Today I learned: • You can actually move modules between multi-tools. I had been scrapping tools for parts or leaving modules behind when I sold them, not realizing I could reuse them. • You can tame creatures that will fight for you. Traits like aggressive, protective, and helpful actually matter in battle.

This game still surprises me with how much it hides in the details.

What’s something you learned way later than you expected?

What resources do you have (or needed) on your home planet? [Discussion]

I’m just curious to know what types of resources people look for when choosing a home planet. I figure the look of a planet is a major factor, but having the resources you use a lot at your finger tips can really be useful.

I don’t know how it happened, but I found a chill moon with Indium, Gold, and Silver. Which refine to make chromatic, so it helped early game. Then all of the gold I could carry. To top it off, I have runaway, whispering eggs for nanites, and gravitino around all the ruins to add on to my gold and silver sales.. let’s just say I didn’t know what i had until a couple hundred hours in, lol!

What about LLM in No Man's Sky? [Discussion]

There is a game mechanic that randomize each sollar system when you came in, but, its randomize... If i understand right, there is very small config list for each sollar system. What if devs lay that job on LLM to generate it? I mean, model can find the logic in power of stars and gravity between planets which is form some factors to develop the weather and Geome on each, and to understand what animal proportions really should be there, carivore they are or not, population and etc. I mean each sollar system is basically one or two LLM prompts that decide what rules will be there.

There are some thoughts against it? I think It's very realistic for today to do.

Better drops from ships [Suggestion]

If I am being honest I am getting bored of the same loot from pirates and the like when i go after a ship. An idea I had was maybe add a 5 to 15% chance when you destroy a ship you can gain a tech upgrade, weapon upgrade, or even part of that ship as well. Maybe add in an even smaller chance to get a unique part that increases that particular class of ships major stats, fighter parts giving damage output, explorer parts giving jump boosts, hullar parts giving defensive boosts.

Multi tool upgrade tips [Screenshot]

I see a lot of people asking for tips, well I just got my multi tool upgraded to where I want it and it does the job well. I wanted to post my build so others could emulate it if they want a strong multi tool. My main tip would be to organize your upgrades in squares, like I have. That allows for maximum damage combos/outputs. Move stuff around and see if it makes a difference how you have things placed, but remember how you had it, in case you need to go back.

Question about identifying ship size via visor and extrapolating storage upgrade potential [Question]

Let’s take a fighter for example. If we look in our visor and it says S:32+24, can we be sure the storage in both tech and cargo are already maxed and storage upgrades won’t work on the ship, or is it possible it’s a “large” fighter that just so happens to correspond to the mid size fighter storage max at that moment? Do numbers like 32+24 typically indicate max storage in both compartments or just their current capacity? Will these two numbers change depending on the class of ship?

Most questions online about this are years old with likely outdated answers.

Abandoned Mode Storyline? [Discussion]

I don't know about you guys, but I think I would go crazy if I realised I was the only sentient life in an entire universe. I think it would be cool if abandoned mode had its own storyline to follow alternate from the main one (optionally of course). A story of desparation and loneliness with the hope of screaming into the darkness and hoping you find someone else out in the void

Or maybe something that plays into the Atlas more, sending one last traveller on a mission to restore what was lost.

Maybe a twist of events that explain why your universe was abandoned in the first place.

Or something else... Its fun to think about what it could be, lmk what you guys think :]

All hail crossplay! [Screenshot]

I finally made the move from Switch 1 to my new PC. Such a bliss to have crossplay finally for the game.

Back then, I had the game installed in my old PC, but it was a struggle to play it smoothly even with low settings. So I bought the game for my Switch, and it runs better than my old PC.

Recently, I got the jump from AMD Ryzen 3 and GTX1050Ti to Intel i5 and RTX4060Ti. Money well spent. Now I can play NMS back on PC smoothly and beautifully.

But I am starting to wonder whether to get the new Switch 2. Well, you know. With multiplayer and settlements being absent in Switch 1. Is it going to be a problem if I have settlements in PC, cloud-saved it, and try to play the game normally on the go in my Switch 1?

Name Randomly generated rather than Steam Name [Question]

Heya NMS Community

I was wondering if anyone else had this issue / bug / I'm not really sure what to call this.
I've been playing for a couple of hours, and just noticed that at some point, my profile name (the name that Discoveries will be tied to, or the name on the display in your starship) has been changed. Now, instead of my Steam Profile name, it's called "DYLAN_SHMCK". I also have an older save file from a few years ago, and sure enough, this Profile is called "Doodlypop". However, when I create a new save file, the name is the same as my Steam Profile name, as it's supposed to be.

Did anyone else experience this issue? I've tried looking around, but I don't think this is an issue other people have (on the Steam version of the game, anyway)

And in case anyone thinks that- I did not crack the game, I bought it on Steam. So that can't be the cause of this problem.

The only thing I don't like about NMS [Suggestion]

I've only been playing this game for about a month, but I already have over 100 hours in it. I feel like every part of the game is well made, and nothing is really annoying.

Well, except for one thing... During exploration, I always make sure to scan every fauna on the planets I land on, along with as many plants and minerals as possible. And one thing is always true. Finding uncommon and rare underground fauna is a Pain. In. The. ASS. Most of the time, they don't even appear in normal large caves and you have to go to points of interest with open cave surfaces around them. But even then, there's no guarantee they'll show up. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent looking for these animals. One time, I had to go through over 20 points of interest just to finally find the last rare underground fauna.

This is the only thing I find negative about the game. I hope they change the conditions for how they spawn in the future.

Found a killer Atlantid Multi-Tool: L-Shaped supercharge slots, just one off and It looks good! [Screenshot]

I’m still tinkering with it but It completely outperforms my other two main multi-tools (a Royal and a Voltaic Staff, plus an Alien for combat). For context: my Royal pulls about 30 oxygen from hazardous flora. This Atlantid? Around 100. I got it at a Monolith and went back to drop a save beacon for anyone interested. I should note it was an A when I got it and once upgraded to S the last slot ended up missing the perfect L by one slot but still I’m glad I did.

Having to Pulse for 30-45mins to find a living frigate is bad game design. [Discussion]

They should be rare, I get it. But looking at my screen for up to an hour (like I am this morning) trying to get a living frigate encounter is just bad. It's not engaging at all, it's tiresome, and it's probably been like 45 mins at this point and I'm getting annoyed that the encounter rates are this low. They should not be. As it sits now it's just bad game design. I don't have a problem with them being a rare encounter, but staring at a screen for 45 minutes pulsing through space isn't it. And yes this is my choice to play this way, I'd like to replace my entire S class frigates with living frigates. I have probably 8-9 now. And I will say this morning is definitely the longest I've ever had to Pulse consistently through space sitting idly by just waiting. I hope HG can revisit some of the frigate aspects of the game to make them more engaging.

Lucky freighter pull? [Screenshot]

Yoooo! This is only my second time playing this game deeply; the last time was probably 2+ years ago now. I remembered hearing last time (after I got my freighter) that you could decline the offer and trigger it again for more chances to get a better freighter.

For my new game, I declined the offer twice. I also lost another two opportunities to bugs/glitches where the whole combat interaction just vanished from the screen... is that normal? I had never had any issues like that before.

I started thinking about trying to go get a pirate dreadnaught, which I remember doing during my last playthrough, and I got this offer on my first jump out (after the engagement)!

Freighter mods/ fleet mods - unexpected supercharge behavior [Discussion]

Hi all, I was messing around with my fleet mods/freighter mods and noticed some unexpected behavior. In particular I'm looking at fuel efficiency mods and I haven't tested this, but I'm thinking it may make sense to supercharge one of your weaker fleet mods depending on how the math works out.

I have 3 fuel efficiency mods:

3% fuel efficiency (C-class) --> 23% fuel efficiency supercharged

5% fuel efficiency (C-class) --> 24% fuel efficiency supercharged

10% fuel efficiency (B-class) --> 28% fuel efficiency supercharged

Multiplicative bonus example:

If the fuel efficiency mods works in a multiplicative manner and I supercharge the B-class 10% mod (like normally I'd want to buff the strongest mod), my fuel bonus becomes 1.03 x 1.05 x 1.28 = 1.384 for 38.4% overall fuel bonus buff.

However if the fuel efficiency mods works in a multiplicative manner and I supercharge the weakes mod - the 3% fuel eff C-class mod - my fuel bonus becomes 1.23 x 1.05 x 1.10 = 1.420 for 42.0% overall fuel bonus.

So it seems maybe I should supercharge my weakest mod in this example due to how the supercharging works.

Additive bonus example (looking at additive math produces same result):

If the mods work in an additive manner, and I supercharge the strongest 10% fuel efficiency mod, my bonus beomes: 3% + 5% + 28% which comes to a 36% buff.

If in the additive framework I supercharge the weakest 3% fuel efficiency mod then my bonues become 23% + 5% + 10% = 38% overall fuel bonus.

So again seems supercharging the weakest mod may work out best in this example.

I'm not sure how the math on the bonueses works, but in either the case above supercharging the weakest mod in my case would seem to produce the best fuel efficiency for my frigates.

I'm going to go through my frigates and see fuel usage changes next time I play, but...

TIL DAY2: Atlas Seeds are secretly tied to the portal glyphs [Information]

I always thought the Atlas Seeds were just a random crafting chain to finish the Atlas path. But it turns out each of the 16 seeds actually corresponds to one of the 16 portal glyphs. It ties directly into the idea of the Atlas reset cycles and the simulation’s code. For example: • The 1st Atlas Seed is Heart of the Sun. The 1st portal glyph is often called the “Sun/Star” glyph. • The 6th Atlas Seed is Dawn’s End. The 6th portal glyph is the “Black Hole/Spiral,” symbolizing cycles ending and beginning. • The 16th Atlas Seed is Eternal Atlas Seed. The 16th portal glyph is the last in the sequence, the “Atlas/Infinity” glyph — directly tying the loop back to the Atlas.

Graphics help with Ultra settings (Mac) [Question]

Hi all,

I having this issue with poor draw distance for the grass, it's popping in and out and is very immersion-breaking in an otherwise sublime experience. This was commonplace on my potato Windows PC, and didn't really bother me because I was so used to playing on Ultra low graphics. However, I'm now on the highest spec M4 max mac playing on Ultra settings, with all settings maxed out. Is there some hidden file that's got crossed over from Windows that might be haunting my save file? I have seen videos with grass rendering infinitely far and I imagine my laptop should effortlessly handle it. It doesn't even heat up playing NMS on Ultra graphics. In fact, I played a good 3 hours before I suddenly realised I wasn't plugged in all this while, this really is one hell of a Mac port and I'm very grateful because this is the one game I love and want to keep playing, but I digress.

While I have already reported this to the Zendesk, I was also beginning to wonder if everything else looks like it's supposed to on Ultra graphics? I'm playing at 1920 x 1200 and have a very smooth experience in general. I feel like things look crisp but I can't really tell because I've never played anything with high graphics in my life... Hence, I'm wondering if someone playing with Ultra graphics at 1920 x 1200 or similar can confirm if this is how the game should look, or can suggest if some file or settings might be messing with my graphics? I would be very grateful.

TIA

not sure if this is supposed to happen [Bug]

fired a squadron member

went to space station

swapped to the sentinel ship I wanted to give them.

swapped with first person who landed next to me.

ran over to them at the new ship and hired them

they take off

about 30 seconds later another sentinel ship lands. I buy it.

it's name changes to the one I swapped earlier.

so I accidentally made a new ship for the system?

S Class base with amazing detail. [Video]

This is my newest design for a base with that home feeling. This build was made on PS5 with minor glitch building. Most of it is free placement. Many of these ideas were inspired by other builds I’ve seen throughout the No Mans Sky community. The shared build ideas only keep getting better and I can’t wait to see what more people come up with. Let’s keep inspiring each other!

Returning player help [Suggestion]

Hey everyone, how are you doing?

Yesterday I felt the urge to get back into the game after years, installed it and although the core mechanics feel the same, I know a lot has changed since I played so I'd appreciate some tips on my new journey to the galaxy center.

For some context: I played around 400 hours when the game was launched, reached the center of the galaxy a couple of times, once in permadeath mode, got all the achievements and all the milestones and had around 200 planets in which I had scanned all the fauna which is something I still pretty much enjoy doing in the game. I haven't played it since the permadeath update back in 2018 I think.

Thanks and have fun.

How to find a system I discovered but didn't land anywhere? [Question]

Early in the game, I did my first black hole. I for some reason (can't remember if it warped or what) I left that system without going to the space station. I set it as a waypoint and am traveling with my freighter but i have the haunting feeling i could be doing this forever? I need to return to it to name all the planets. My OCD won't let it go. Should i give up?

Hey Guys, I recently got involved in nms, I really started to enjoy it. However, I've just lost 10 days of gaming data, and i'm kinda frustrated abaout it. Steam shutted down just ten sec ago, and the latest save which was available was from 5th of august. Is there anything I can do about it? :(

Been playing for 2 days, what is there to actually do [Question]

I'm enjoying the game so far, unlocked the anomaly space ship, and now focusing on trying to just upgrade/learn technology.

What are the main things I can do other than mining, researching, base building and finding salvage, language stones and ruins?

I'm also doing the story, but I have like 4 story lines and 8 side stories, that sometimes seem to be connected, and It still feels like a tutorial

Ik its a sand box and "make your own goals", but that is too vague because to make your own goals, the game needs to allow it and have content and because im still new I don't even know what I can unlock later on lol

Bug/Feature you might encounter and how to fix it… [Discussion]

Thunderstorms last night knocked out power briefly and apparently my Xbox clock was reset. I came back to discover my Settlements had seven YEARS of debt. It was showing that my save from last night was December 22nd, 2018.

Today I figured out what the problem was and set my Xbox clock to the correct time zone and then restarted the game. Immediately my settlement debt cleared to where they were supposed to be.

I figure someone out there has had something similar happen and I wouldn’t want them to give up on a settlement they worked hard to make profitable only because of a clock glitch. Hope this helps someone out there. Grah!

How to change the wing type? [Question]

This ship is damn near perfect for me, but I have one gripe with it, the wing tips are only half wings and not full wings. I've tried to find a version of this ship with full wings, but it always has one imperfection that I can't stand. Be it either an ugly chin piece or white wings that clash with the whole black/blue ascetic, there's always something.

I was wondering if there was a way to change the wings to full wings via a save editor or something, since that seems to be the one thing that'll work. If someone could tell me how, that would be amazing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cave dive with me! - VR TW: Thalassophobia, speluncaphobia [Screenshot]

Since I got a VR headset (basically just for NMS) I wanted to check and test all the different things I could do - and I thought I should share it with you. Sooo... Here we are!

First off is regular cave diving, but there's more I'd like to try out, like base jumping (heia... fear of heights...), exo suits, the settlements, derelict freighters and interieur of the ships!

Oh, and: The slightly jumps during movement are due to the joystick's stubborness not loading issues. I'm still not fully used to them, it seems.

__ Other data:___

  • VR system: Pico 4 ultra (It's a bit more blurry IRL than the video shows but that's mostly because of my settings), RTX 3070 graphic card (With a better cooling system my PC would probably run way smoother and with even prettier loading distances etc. ... But... nah.)

  • Graphic settings: "high" exept for quality of water and bases ("better"), aniso. filter "2", GTAO "better", antialiasing "fidelityFY super", FSR "balanced" and the HUD is also manually turned off, as you can see.

  • gameplay settings: hazards on (default), Type of motion: fluent and - the most important - 0% vignette during movement (No more motion sickness! Yay!)

  • There's also the "visible VR body" option, I thought I should tell you about; I have it turned off usually since the arm length is shorter than my own and the area for collision (and also the elbow) is therefore in a weird position; BUT it still correctly displays your avatars feet, clothes and arms, which is pretty amazing!

What do you do with your settlements once they are maxed out? [Discussion]

I have 4 settlements that are all built out and fully upgraded. They are at max population, have happiness over 100%, and maintenance costs at or very near zero. All 18 "add-ons" are green plusses. I don't need the products they produce or the profits from selling them. I do like the planets they are on and the locations are scenic.

However, as is so often the case in NMS, there is no longer anything to do there. You have invested a lot into these assets yet they don't really enable anything new to do in the game - Seemingly just another dead end.

I wish I could retire as overseer and have the settlement continue/remain in its current state as a place I could visit occasionally. What do you do with your mature settlements?

Starbirth Quest, what do I do next? [Question]

So I've progressed with the star birth quest and now I need to find a specific planet for the void egg, I might need to use unconventional travel. My first thought was use a black hole, a portal etc. The galaxy map just keeps plotting a course towards I don't even know.

Am I so far away from the quest system that it isn't showing up on the map? I checked the quest log, searched around and some people have been given portal addresses during the mission. I've been on strange worlds, radioactive etc to try and match the thick with grime and decay. The cracking void egg gives a vision of pink and blue. Been to the ATLAS station, The Prime Terminal. I've been on space stations and located fallen travelers, who just point me to their graves.

What stats do you look at when choosing which frigates to dismiss? [Question]

Do you look at number of times damaged? Fuel costs? Looking for experiences here!

Beautiful dissonance planet for others to enjoy [Screenshot]

Sharing this planet because I won't be using it anymore moving on to other worlds. I built my first big dedicated base next to the portal. It has a black and yellow sentinel ship fairly average. I dont have the coordinates where I found it. The ship was a random encounter in another system that lead me here I was unaware of sentinel ships or dissonance planets at the time. There is not settlement on this planet however there is one on the adjacent volcanic planet. Here are some pics of the planet info, planet system, ship, and environment. I encourage other to build a base here as you please the portal is located in a nice spot. There is a nearby autophage encampment as well.

Stupid idea that might actually be interesting (fan update idea) [Discussion]

I’ve been playing NMS since launch in 2016 and loved even then when it was a buggy, underwhelming experience and seeing this game evolve to what is today is something truly magical. I play on PC and what I saw with some mods since foundations/pathfinder is terrain/asset manipulation to change things up in the game.

Now… WHAT IF the game had a “Creator mode”? Not creative but CREATOR mode. A single player experience where you are alone in the universe BUT you decide prior to the start of a new game HOW the universe is being generated? The entire universe at your fingertips deciding through sliders mob spawn rate, mob dimensions, crazier terrain, deciding whether you can have Blazing hot infernal hellscapes of a planet but on which it snows… well something out of your internal roleplay, you know, you make up the rules etc.?

I know it’s probably stupid and unrealistic but man it would be so cool to create (and maybe share like the portal coordinates) our unique universes.

Let me know what you think!

a list of improvement ideas, in no particular order [Suggestion]

(It kinda is a particular order, but it's mostly the order they came to my head. I kinda grouped it tho. Importance isn't considered. If I have an issue with it, no matter how big or small, it's here. might add more later)

Sorting in Containers

Sorting/Restricting visibility of stations based on Race, Economy type and Wealth.

Improved on-foot first person camera

Camera transitions when getting in/out of your ship while the ship camera is set to first person

Changes to the landing/takeoff sequence: Takeoff takes time anyway, so the cockpit can stay open while you're in it (until you start take off). Have the ships facing the opposite way in stations for similar reasons, It's kinda annoying having to wait this long to get out.

Salvaged Frigate Modules shouldn't be this rare/unclear to get

Squadrons need an overhaul: AI improvements The ability to replace pilots when hiring the ability to give them your ships (maybe only possible if their ship is the same Class or lower as the one you give them) maybe a Weapons Rack style thing with inactive pilots you hired but that aren't currently in your squadron.

It should be clearer to new players that the Main Story is not a traditional story where you reach the end game at the end of the story, but basically the tutorial.

More animation sets (aka walk cycles and stuff). The standard one is fine, but it's very Utilitarian so to say. I would like to pick different vibes for different outfits, like a heroic set for my cape and armor wearing outfit.

Space combat improvements. I'd like it in a way where doing actual dogfights is worth it over standing still and turning into a turret.

Button mapping. Ideally Far Cry 6 style, where you pick an action and press the button (or combination ideally) it should respond to. Although I'd be fine with any sort of mapping, as long as it's there....

Ok everyone, I found a star system trying to portal travel to a paradise world shared here on reddit with a super deep ocean, however the portal has a red warning when I entered the glyphs, after verifying multiple times.

Upon getting out, the portal had lighting bouncing around it...

I went through it anyway, and while I can see the station in my teleporter. I cannot see the base I built, the system, or the planets, flora and fauna in my discoveries tab.

Also on the Galaxy map, it doesn't show me in that system, it shows me in a different one I assume is nearby?

There is also a random communication station, in the middle of space, that says "Land"

Largest hostile fauna I've seen [Screenshot]

Found the largest hostile creatures I've seen in the game on a frozen planet. This is the first time I've run into hostile megafauna. At first, I thought I must have accidentally hit him with the mining laser, but later ran into another one who immediately went after me. I've seen tons of these big crab/spider things on hundreds of planets, but none of them were hostile. Thing is, their size makes them less effective traveller hunters. They are so big they struggle to position themselves for an attack. They make for you but spend time stomping around trying to line up a strike since you're way down there. It's a little sad really, they aren't nearly as good at taking a chomp out of a traveller as the hostile felines are, but they try.

There are 2 variants, a crab with noodle arms and hairy legs, and a red eyed muffin spider with crab claws.

I'd assume that when a settlement spawns, it modifies the local terrain generation to make it flat. This seems to be the unmodified version. How would I fix this? I tried flying away and coming back to regenerate the terrain, it actually ended up with even more terrain floating

Am I missing something or is the game bugging? [Question]

So I recently made the critical error of going to a new galaxy in my fancy sentinel ship. I got a hyaline brain from shooting down interceptors but I can't probe it. I also tried to use the roamer scanner to find a monument thing hoping the game would detect the brain in my inventory and it didn't.

Questions about this game [Question]

Definitely waayyy late to the party here, but I'm interested in trying this game out and had a few questions. I don't know much, so apologies if these are dumb questions.

  1. What is the gameplay loop? Explore planet and move on to the next? Or is there more to this game than just the exploration?

  2. How is cosmetic progression?

  3. If not playing with a friend, is it a solo game or are there aspects of the game that are played with other random players?

Thanks!

Replaying older expeditions missed [Question]

I generally play NMS on the series cx for I’m lazy to boot up my pc version😂.

Any way to replay older expeditions and not risk it affecting the original main save during the iron vulture expedition I forgot to make copies of the expedition vulture so I am stuck the hauler variant (would have been nice to change the colour on it if i had remembered to copy the ship) and missed the beacon expedition .

Would doing the offline method on PC work then transfer the save?

First time playing in almost 2 years and I need some help! [Question]

So I still have parts of a living ship from when I played in 2023 but I don't know what to do with them. I have a Singularity Core, Hardened Shell, Mature Neural Stem, Mature Heart Core, Cracking Void Egg, and Wormhole Brain Implant.

The Cracking Void Egg has a description of a planet followed by The Hunter // The Reflection etc... I understand these are part of the game's coordinate system, but I don't know how to use said system. Do I have to find a portal and input the correct sigils? And does the EUCLID EUCLID EUCLID at the end have anything to do with it?

I've put a lot of time into this game but most of it was exploring planets in nearby systems and seeking out word knowledge/ increasing standing with different races. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Edit: to add, if I do need to use a portal, how do I go about finding one? The only ones I've found were in the Atlas questline, which seemed to have preset sigils already.

Hi all! [Question]

Hello, I played the game back on launch for a good few hours and dropped it. Have recently picked it back up again. So, I have 2 questions!

Would anyone mind helping a new(kinda) player out? It’s quite overwhelming and I find I’ve got no units nor Nanites and haven’t a clue how to make them! I’m gonna watch some videos today but if any veterans would have anything useful to me that’d be hugely appreciated, anything to help me get to explorin’ a bit quicker 😅

If I wanted to get to.. say.. the 210th galaxy for example. How do I get there, and STAY there? I know I can go google some portal code but I won’t be able to make a base or permanently stay there. So for me to get to the 200th, or 210th galaxy, how much of a grind and how long will that take, to get there and be able to place a base permanently and call that galaxy my home?

Thank you all in advance. I know this is one of the most friendly communities of players of any game!

Question about base uploading/existence/permanence [Question]

If and only if you upload a base, other players can see it, correct?

After you upload a base, can you use it with all or some owner privileges (deleting, editing, interacting with storage boxes, harvesting) from another savefile, for a game where you did not build the base (but using the same player name/identity)? It seems obvious that the privileges are not full as bases built in other savefiles are not listed under your bases when you choose where to teleport.

I suppose if the base was never uploaded, nobody will see the base except when playing from a savefile in which the base was built, so deleting all the associated savefiles means the end of the base. Is this correct?

But, if a base is uploaded and then all the associated savefiles (the ones whose history includes the player building base) get deleted, does the base remain in Hello's servers/database forever, unchangeable and undeletable because nobody owns it?

Incidentally, when happens when 2 players each build a base in overlapping regions and then try to upload their bases? Will there be an error during the upload of at least one player? If not, will everybody now see the 2 overlapping bases together, with overlapping features?

Will one of the uploads succeed? If so, will the player with the failed upload get the other player's uploaded base interfering with his local un-uploaded base, e.g. with features or terrain edits from the uploaded base appearing, merging with his own local changes?

How’s the gameplay solo and multiplayer? [Discussion]

So recently elite got me hooked so much and I love it. Somehow I am bouncing like a stuttered rabbit fomo style to see what’s fun or not. Tried SC and meh it’s honestly very shallow. I’m seeing lots of nice screenshots about this game and I actually put already 30 hours into it and it’s not bad (a year ago).

Hear me out: how’s playing with strangers/guild etc? I’m loving elite not for the sim part. Somehow I want to keep playing it but NMS seems to have this silly playing together vibes. I already know the depth of the games I mentioned so avoid “ocean wide and inch deep” I’m not asking a comparison just if I’ll be engaging with randoms or other players and how is it.

Did I cheat? [Screenshot]

Been playing the game for years, have over 3k hours in, done all expeditions...so I'd say it's my all-time favourite game. Until recently, I was missing just the Permadeath achievements and finally decided to give it a go. About 10ish hours in and already having some glyphs ready, I ventured to the anomaly and was to warp back to my base when I checked other player bases and saw "centre" as a base name. So what did I do? I went through it, one jump before the centre of the galaxy and took the leap. I could have used the first glyphs at a portal and quintessentially done the same to get there. So...do you think I "cheated" or was I just opportunistic?

Scrolling reddit reminds me of my last No Man's Sky base [Discussion]

i still remember building it, on a dissonant planet where i got my first starship powered by pugneum and atlantideum decided to also make a base of scrapped atlantideum or something like that with those black walls, it was nice until i made the mistake of leaving the atlas during one of the quests and couldn't go back to change my decision

stopped playing after realizing i made a permanent decision i didn't want to stay with on my main save, now i wanna make a second save to fix that, but i simply never got back into the game

lately i just had other games i can play and NMS works on linux too, while Delta Force doesn't so I'll play that until my current PC's GPU dies, when I'll change to full AMD and linux

No Man's Sky on Switch 2 [Discussion]

So I picked up NMS on my Switch OLED like 2 years ago. Loved the game but it was kind of hard to really get into it on Switch. Now that i have a Switch 2 I have easily put 60 hours in to the game over the last month or so. The game is so much more beautiful on this system. I do have one question though. Is there any content that i am not able to get on the Switch 2 version? The reason i ask is because whenever i check to see if there is a weekend community missions on the anomaly, it always says theres none going on. Am i just missing something, or have they stopped doing the weekend missions for quicksilver, or is it just not something i get on this version?

Btw this community is probably one of the best video game communities out there. Easily the most friendly and helpful. If anyone else plays on Switch or Switch 2 you can add your riend code if you want someone else to play with.

Thinking about starting a new save. Why do you start new saves and what do you do differently? [Discussion]

I have 1100 hours on my current save and it is getting a bit stale. I've played just about everything from Creative to Permadeath and am thinking this next save should be Normal. I plan to keep using my mods which are entirely QoL improvements, but not doing any save editing.

When you start a new save, do you have a specific goal, new approach, or something else that is motivating you into doing it all again from the beginning? What do you find exciting?

I do miss the thrill of encountering things for the first time. Finding the first crashed starship, freighter, pod, monolith, portal, ..., being able to buy my first nice starship. Although I'm really not looking forward to the grind. I can't decide whether to use the refiner dupe trick to reduce the grinding. Should I accept gifts from fellow players at the Nexus or earn everything?

Thinking about it, I've never played the bad guy. Goodie-two-shoes or outlaw/pirate?

Challenge: CBAS Galaxy Hop - Abandoned Mode [Information]

Here's the challenge: Reach Hilbert galaxy with only C level upgrades including ship. Reach Calypso galaxy with only max B level upgrades and a B class ship. Reach Hesperius Dimension galaxy with only max A level upgrades and a A class ship. Reach Hyades galaxy with up to S level upgrades and a S class ship.

So, progress from C to B to A to S ships and tech upgrades as you hit each new galaxy.

It sounds straightforward. However when first starting out and being limited to certain level tech upgrades, it makes things more interesting.

Here are some examples: for the entire challenge, since you are in abandoned mode, you have to find every glyph manually. No NPCs so no translucent travelers to help! it's not until B level upgrades become available that you get any help finding monoliths/portals. So you must find them by walking/flying around. it's not until A level upgrades that you can use an advanced mining laser. This means no advanced mining, no curious deposits, and no sentinel ships (since you can't mine what you need to repair them). it's very unlikely you'll find an S level ship in abandoned mode! it happens, but rarely. so you'll have to either get lucky and find one, or collect enough nanites that you can upgrade one.

I don't remember how long it took me. I have continued playing this particular save and have gone out to the first 20 galaxies now.

Anyway, something different to try if you're looking for a bit more challenge.

Have fun out there travelers!

Why does the Dreadnought warp 6 seconds early? [Question]

Today I was warping around Pirate systems farming Nanites when I came across my first Dreadnought battle. After fighting a couple of them I finally managed to find a rhythm where I could theoretically take one out.

So I tried, took down its shields, then the fuel rods and then started shooting the Warp Engines. The timer was going down but I was doing enough damage to take the lady one out a few seconds before it warps.

The timer reached 6 seconds and as I was just about to destroy it, the Dreadnought warped. At 6 seconds, not at 0. And this happened twice back to back.

Is this some sort of silly mechanic or am I being trolled?

I get the feeling some of the C-classes I pass up on have the potential to be better than the S-class ones I find. But I have no idea where to view the maximum stats of ships or multitools.

No Man’s Sky is Art - An Homage to Photo Mode [Screenshot]

Outside of expeditions I am always playing in Creative so I can just focus on taking pictures without distractions. The variety of planets/biomes/flora/fauna/vehicles, etc. give us so much to work with! I’ve certainly seen more advanced photo mode options in other games but I love the combination of simplicity and flexibility that NMS offers. Changing the time of day, field of view, and filters can create so many different vibes. It just never gets old to me…

Anyone else spend most of their time in NMS taking pictures? Any features that you’d like them to add? I wish we had the option of not pausing time while taking pictures (when playing solo) and I’d also love the option of assigning a button to photo mode on consoles…

Anyways, just wanted to share some pictures that I took this weekend to illustrate the versatility of photo mode. All of these, except the last three, were taken from the same planet.

And a shout out to all the other virtual photographers on this Reddit. Keep sharing those beautiful shots!!

Potential Settlement Bug? [Question]

So I got a settlement decision and decided to build a fishing pond. I started construction and the timer on the mission is showing a significantly less time than the actual construction settlement.

Mission timer started at 20 minutes and you can see in the clip, it’s down to 13 minutes but when I click on the actual construction itself, it’s showing 12 hours and 53 minutes.

Are the fishing ponds supposed to take this long? Or is this a bug?

I did wait the 20 minutes initially and then clicked on the construction menu which then had reset the timer to 13 hours and the 20 minute timer on the mission prompt.

I actually want to leave this settlement as I found one in a nicer area but I can’t leave until this is done so I’m kinda stuck.

Found an effecient way to gather several Atlantids quickly - maybe it's new for you as well [Information]

If you are in search of an Atlantid with great SC slot layout, this might help you.

Today I found accidentally a "new" way (certainly new for me) of getting Atlantids on one planet quickly if you want to check their SC slots at a station. I'm actually not sure that this was always possible. It might have been introduced by some of the updates.

First, you need a dissonant planet (Korvax of course). You need to know how to farm Sentinel ships using Harmonic camps.

Get sentinel coordinates (dissonance spikes) at a harmonic camp terminal (just to be sure put a beacon at the camp).

Got to the crashed ship site, get everything ready for converting the ship's brain to a harmonic one and probe the brain. Go to the designated Monolith. Instead of starting the brain conversion, get an Atlantid multi-tool at the site. Finish the interaction with the Monolith by going through the dialog. When you finish interaction with the Monolith, probe the Hyaline brain again. You should get a location of another Monolith. Rince and repeat.

Using this way you don't have to search for monoliths (finding several of them on one planet can be tedious) and you will skip the step where you would have to come back to the harmonic camp in order to get new ship location (to get another Monolith location).

IMHO it's way faster that any other way.

Must try it again to see if it was not a one-time glitch. I find it surprising I found out after more that 3000 hours in the game.

I hope this was not a glitch, I will check it on another Korvax dissonant planet.

What content would a person who stopped following the story at the Anomaly miss? [Question]

As soon as I got to the anomaly I dumped the story and just started jumping systems and exploring and collecting ships and strengthening them. I did do the living ship quest because they look rad. But pretty much I haven’t even begun the atlas quest. I assume there are more.

Recently I wondered why I wasn’t seeing any gas giants or deep water worlds, and why I hadn’t seen any of these “autophage” creatures or their staffs. So I looked them up and it appears they are tied to certain quest progression.

Without being overly spoiler-y, what items and worlds and creatures am I missing if I don’t progress the story any further? I’m having a great time as is right now, something like 300 hours in. But water worlds and staffs sound cool. What else is out there?

Hi all, I have a really cool C class sentinel ship that I really like. I can’t be bothered to try and naturally farm them till I get a S class one.. And I have 122k Nanites saved up.

So my question is, is it worth spending the 85k Nanites upgrading this one to S class? Like will it have the same stats as a natural one, or will it be quite the bit worse stat wise? I know it’s RNG mostly but just generally speaking. Would I have the better ship by finding it naturally, or upgrading this bad boy C class to a S class?

Why are there not more expedition reduxes? [Discussion]

After taking a break for a year or two, it was a nice treat at the end of 2024 to have some expedition reduxes so I could catch up on some exclusive content. Nevertheless I still have done less than half the expeditions since I got into the game around 2022 and I don't play too religiously.

It's been a bit since the last expedition, and the Beacon update was fine if just kinda vapid, and I'm sure HG is plugging away at much more stuff to come. But in the interim why couldn't they just do some limited reruns of other expeditions? The content is in the game as it is (which I've seen because there are mods that just unlock it all for you), and it'd give more incentive to pick up the game more frequently. And judging from the posts I see here, there's always an influx of new players who also missed out on that past content.

Anyway there's my little gripe.

I do not want to play with other players (one of the main reasons I like this game is that up until now I haven't been forced to interact with people). Is that the only way to get these ships ?

I can’t find anything in my starship’s tech that should be providing this boost. I switched ships to check the stats and the stats are only 11% and 50% on all my others. I can’t find anything about this online. Can anyone explain to me what’s going on?

I love parking my fleet next to a planet, warping to one of my frigates, and just admire the view [Screenshot]

This perspective really makes you feel insignificant. Sometimes. I stay there and chill for a few minutes. Part of me wishes frigates had more features. Right now, they're just a big, lonely chunk of metal floating in the cosmos that you send on expeditions every 12 hours. I hope they add more depth to them in a future update

How to find the colossal relic guardian? [Question]

I followed all the tips and found a relic planet in a purple star system. For the past few days, I've been searching for hours, both in the air and on the ground in vehicles, across all types of terrain. There's no sign of any, and I've found all kinds of other structures. Is it really just bad luck, or are there no such things on this planet, and I'm just searching for nothing?

A player model followed me [Fan Work]

Disclaimer: the story is a work of fiction and is only meant to the purpose of entertainment, no matter how detailed or realistic it may seem. Any characters I make are also fictional regardless of how closely they relate to real-world people. I thank you for reading this and hope you enjoy.

I’ve experienced something very strange thing in No Man’s Sky. I’m not sure how to explain this and so far I haven’t found anything else regarding what I’ve seen ingame or on the internet. To give a bit of context, there’s a glitch in the game where a player’s animation would simply not exist for another player and usually it’s quite funny to watch or in some cases a bit unsettling if the player is afk, to shorten it, it’s your or someone else’s player model doing an A-pose. To start off, I was doing the daily nexus missions and just finished the last one of the day (for anyone not familiar, there are two per day) and as I was going to my starship to get resources for a megabase idea, I noticed a player doing the A-pose. No bother, sure it’s a rather weird sight but it’s a normal glitch so whatever. I go to my starship and get off the anomaly. Once in space, I went to a random asteroid field and gathered lots of silver then collected a huge amount of carbon and other resources on the planets in the system. Nothing of note happened until I warped to a dissonant system for atlantideum. After about 10 or 15 minutes of mining, I gathered all the atlantideum I needed then as I was heading back to my ship, I saw a player model off in the distance, no markers. I quickly checked to see if anyone happened to be in the same system as me but I was alone. I stared at the A-posing model for a couple of seconds and realized it was the same one I saw on the anomaly not long ago. I didn’t know how to react aside from shock then fear as that really should not be possible in the game. I ran...

SC slot for Iron Vulture [Question]

So lucky today cuz some random guy gave me parts for IV and storage upgrades. Didn’t expect that. Now what determines the SC slots placement once the ship crafted?

Coordinates [Question]

When I'm slightly curious I check this subreddit for coordinates (planets, Sentinel ships, etc etc) - but recently I noticed that it's not always accurate.

For example: I got coords for a deep ocean planet (with name and all) but when I jumped through the portal I arrive in a system that doesn't show that particular planet.

Is this a glitch or...?

What is the difference between a Save Beacon & a Save Point???? [Question]

When I build a base, I try to make it as welcoming and convenient for visitors as possible. I have a First Aid unit, a trade computer, food processor, a mineral refiner and comfortable surroundings. It's exhausting flying thousands of light years, I want you to relax and have EVERYTHING at your finger tips.

Which brings me to the question : Do I need to put both the Save Point device AND the Save Beacon device at the base? Or would just one do? Do they perform the same action? Please enlighten me!

How to keep track of all your stuff? [Question]

Greetings fellow travellers! Newbie here, 40 hours in and what can I say.. I feel like I have a lot of stuff. In my freighter, in storage containers on my ships. I do a mission and need whatever, let's say a convergence cube. I know I have one but not in my exosuit. I proceed to check all my storage til I finally find some. Is this it? Do you have to remember where you put everything? Is there a better way to handle all your stuff? Otherwise, loving this game so much and this community is so great. All your posts make me want to do so much stuff, it's hard to not get distracted all the time, lol.

Just checking: water planets do exist, right? [Question]

I've heard of this so called water planet, but after visiting hundreds of planets / systems, i have yet to find one, which kinda sucks because i want an excuse to drive around in the nautilon. So i've wanted to ask: water planets without large landmasses do exist, right?
