Expedition task Reclaimed Weaponry bugged? Left multitool behind, now can’t find the marker [Question]

As part of the expedition, I was doing the Reclaimed Weaponry task. When I arrived on the planet, there was a multitool and a robot. I talked to the robot but didn’t exchange the multitool, and then the quest sent me on to another location. After I left the place where the multitool was, I realized I actually needed it because I won’t be able to complete the expedition task without it. However, the marker no longer shows me where to go, and I can’t find that location again. Does anyone know what to do in this situation?

p.s. I don’t have a save because my game auto-saves and I can’t roll back.

Survival players, any mods or tips to make the game harder? (preferably planetary storms more dangerous) [Question]

Hey guys, I'm wondering if there's any ways in which you've found that actually make the game hard? Minus permadeath (because I don't want to die from falling through terrain, I'm fine with losing everything if I actually lost a fight, or died to a storm).

My problem is that when I land on a planet with storms that are literally called bone-stripping, I find them to be easily survivable. with my shields tanking the supposedly strong storms.

I love the game in its current state, don't get me wrong. Still fun to explore, but exploring dangerous planets and feeling in danger would be greatly appreciated. I like exploring massive mountains, discovering cave systems, and finding the little tidbits of lore that are jotted around planets, and the little notes on fauna/flora that help me build up a picture of the world's ecosystem.

I've considered ditching my shields to make it harder, but if I ditch my shields then I won't really feel progression since I'll just struggle as much as I did when I first started the game on stormy planets, but this might have to become the case unfortunately.

I've also considered making a new save, but I'm unsure if starting a new 'abandoned' save would be the way to skip all of the quest-line, so I can just start grinding for the tech? I'm more than willing to make this compromise, I kind of like the idea of a lonely, empty universe.

Any advice, tips, suggestions, etc are welcome!
I just want to clarify, whilst these are things I would love to see in the game itself, I'm not complaining about them not being present and not going to engage in a discussion about if these should/shouldn't be implemented in future updates, I'm merely just asking if anyone's found any way to just make the galaxy feel rougher through self-imposed limits/mods.

Non-stop crashing when I try to build a corvette, and more bugs tied to the corvette. [Bug]

So I’m sure I can’t be the only one that’s experiencing constant crashing while trying to build a corvette. Every time, without fail. It crashes, the times it crashes are random. It can be instant the moment I enter the build hud. Or it’ll happen as I’m finalizing the design. Been trying since last night and can’t even finish working on my corvette. It’s happening on PC, my steam deck and Xbox(I’m also hearing some ps5 users are going through it too)

Now for the second bug tied to corvettes: whenever I exit pulse drive, my corvette starts flipping and spinning uncontrollably with the camera along with it. Not as common as the crashing bug but very annoying and disorienting.

And the 3rd bug that really annoys me tied to corvettes: not being able to enter some space stations. I either can’t enter at all, or I fly right through it and not dock, oooor I fly through it only to get halfway through when the collision starts bugging out and my ship starts taking damage.

Does anyone at all have any type of fix for this? Or are we just gonna have to wait for hello games to fix it? Cause this is really discouraging me from playing. I come back for every major update, and every new expedition so not being able to build my own ship while seeing all the dope ones others are making and flying around is killing my nms mood.

Ship has literally disappeared - Help! [Question]

Evening all,

I'm hoping one of you may be able to help me.. I saved up enough nanites and purchased the Starborn Phoenix ship. Spent a fortune on upgrades etc.. I then did the Artemis questline with the leylines and then when you go through the portal to find your ship, my ship wasn't there. The symbol was there suggesting it should have been, but I was unable to enter it as it was invisible.

I ended up summoning another ship just to leave the quest etc. Then it said the Starborn couldn't be summoned as it was damaged.

Anyway, since then I have been unable to summon the Starborn Phoenix. The vendor is showing it as already owned, but the ship is completely missing from the summon ship list. I've tried this in the anomaly and from my base, it's like the ship has completely disappeared!

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Cheers!

Corvettes -- My Biggest Gripe [Discussion]

My biggest gripe is they are a bunch of connected hallways that don't expand to rooms. If you have two Habitats of the same size next to each other, it should become a room. My ideal configuration would be a small walkway that leads up to the cockpit and rooms on both sides. A living side and a functional side. Make the installable features take up less room. Allow someone to put the cooking station along the forward and aft walls; not just the sides. Allow for Landing ramps to be placed along the sides (port and starboard). There's so much room for improvement.

And my second biggest gripe? Not being able to attach wing parts to other wing parts natively. The need a hull joint or the actual hull to attach too. I guess I could really go on.

It's better than nothing. I guess.

Five Sentinel Waves but No Pillar? [Question]

I'm doing the latest expedition, "One, Zero." I fought five waves of corrupted sentinels, but instead of getting a pillar, I got an interceptor. That's cool, but why didn't I get the location of a pillar? Was it a bug or is it RNG? Is there an alternative way to get a sentinel pillar? I really don't want to deal with five waves of sentinels again unless I'm forced to.

I need help with a bugged quest [Bug]

Hi So as the title says I have been trying to solve a bug I encountered on a main mission.

In the quest the first traveler I am at the point where I need to find an encryption key from a crashed freighter. However, as others have also said, the quest is pointing me to a freighter I already looted and therefore I can't progress.

Problem is, I cannot reset the mission and I was unable to find a second freighter in 3 hours (in an other post it was suggested to find one and the mission will jump over to it)

What I have tried to do so far: Traveled 10k lightyears away by hyper drive Traveled 1m+ lightyears away via black holes Joined an other player's base in multi-player

I tried to follow all other discussions I found on reddit and steam but nothing worked. Apologies if I missed something.

What else can I try? Thank you

What's going on with all the glitches and crashes? [Bug]

Writing this during Steam's yet another file integrity check after today's 4th crash.

What's going on? This game has never crashed in my life and after the update it's frustrating and annoying. I just had one crash after I was leaving the most boring part of the game for me - derelict freighter. It literally died when I was on the last ramp on the way to my shit where you can run again. I had to redo it once again as this is mandatory for this new expedition.

Not to mention countless times when every space station required for the milestone decided not to pull me in and I bumped out of the entrance hole.

Anyone has similar experience? I think it's better on my main save, but the expedition is a glitchy mess.

Consistent Crashing through VR [Question]

So I’ve played with my configuration… a lot.

I’m still experiencing crashes, sometimes when teleporting to a space station, sometimes when landing on planets.

I’m running NMS through a link cable, directly to my PC.

I have a 4070Ti, i9, with 64 Gb of RAM. Loading Oculus Link, then SteamVR, then finally the game.

During a crash, the game hangs, quest 2 goes black, and SteamVR crashes due to an unexpected error.

Is anyone running a smooth and successful setup for VR? Someone who doesn’t mind helping me get things configured appropriately?

New - Ai valves [Question]

I just started playing the game yesterday and today after leaving the anomaly I realized I had 12 of these starship Ai valves in my inventory worth 12 mi each.

From what I’m reading someone must have just gave them to me while I was in the anomaly? Because I didn’t scrap anything and still have the first ship you start with.

So did I just get pretty blessed? And if so thank you whoever you are haha.

Bounty Hunting 2.0 ideas [Discussion]

With corvettes in the game being as awesome as we’d all hope, Id like it if we soon maybe a bounty hunter update with more attachments for our corvettes like a “brig” or “holding cell”. We could get missions to hunt down targets and get them to come aboard quietly or forcibly (que space battle) with difficulty’s ranging from single target criminals, leaders of gangs or captains of whole pirate crews requiring us to take down frigates and taking their captains in for a huge bounty. That’s my dream that I wanted fora space sim and it seems more and more likely it would come to no man’s sky. Even flipping the idea and being more of a pirate and capturing rare creatures or important figures in fleets or systems and handing them over to pirates and getting a portion of the profits. What other ideas does everyone else have that we could have for a better space sim bounty hunter experience?

Game Won’t Load and Need Help [Bug]

heys guys so i wanted to get back into the game since the voyagers update dropped but i cant load any kind of game for some reason. I haven’t played since January i think. before the Beacons, Relics, and Voyagers updates came out at least. i’ve tried loading my own save game, a new game, and in multiplayer and at every stop the game crashes. i’ve redownloaded twice and verified game files multiple times and all the other normal crap forums and YT videos are gonna tell me to do. nothing works. any help would be lovely

Refinery lists backwards and ship first. [Bug]

I am truly at my wit's end with this now. So much of the game's problems i can ignore, but for some reason this is just driving me insane.

In my refinery, when i select the input, the "All Inventories" tab shows my ship's cargo first, then my own. But the lists are reversed. So even if i go "Exosuit Inventory" if i want something that is at the very top of my inventory, i have to scroll, all the way down to it.

This is ridiculous. So if, like me, you keep stuff that you dont really interact with, like the atlas pass or ammo, at the bottom of your inventory list because you dont need to do anything with it, and stuff like ferite or oxygen at the top since, why would you have them anywhere else if you have to scroll for them? Then you will see the atlas pass first and your oxygen right at the bottom.

Refining things sucks now.

Reverse your inventory? Sure, put the atlas pass first and the oxygen at the very bottom, the refiner shows it in order now. But if you're like me and your suit inventory is huge, the game resets your position when you close the menu. So you have to scroll and drag the incon to the very bottom, to interct with your oygen.

So either way, you're messing around in menus anyways.

I. Hate. This.

Sure, let there be walls in my friend's freighter when there should be a wife open farm. Okay, i can fall through the floor for no reason. Yep, let there be invisible capital ships that can just blast me from anywhere and break my components. No worries, that tiny little area i flattened, let that keep coming back. I dont mind reflattening it every few minutes or each time i spawn into my base. Cool, let the quad sentinels just snipe me from underground. Not in a cave underground, just. In the ground.

But this is my last straw. Good god i hate this.

Rant over.

Ship Architecture problem [Bug]

Does anyone else have problem with second milestone:
"Get inside your starship, open the build menu, and place a mission radar to complete "Ship Architecture."?
I can't place mission radar because i don't have it, everyone seems to get one from mission just so you can place. I am a new player so i don't have any resources like gold, i don't even know where to get it :D

I have like 2 hours in game. On the other hand, my friend i play with did got it and was able to place it down straight away. All the videos i watched across youtube shows that everyone else seemed to have it already (i guess you get that from mission for mission).

Is it bug or am i missing something? I did restart the game, ship is fully build saved and used instead the basic first one, my mission now is to place that radar. So what are your suggestions ?

#

Is the game's lore or story worth it? [Question]

I am a huge fan of story-driven games or some kind of deep lore. So basically do the main missions have a great story or smth? Will it have some kind of mind-blowing shit or I'm expexting too much of a game about space exploring and should just enjoy the gameplay? Currently i am at the very begginning, Just made my first varp. Vistas are really good btw

What counts as permadeath? [Question]

For the achievement, do you have to use exactly the permadeath preset? Or can I change some settings? i.e. the tutorial missions. Because even when setting to permadeath some settings can be changed, but will doing so stop me from getting the achievement?

#

Mini games! [Suggestion]

Had an idea the other day. It would be fun if passengers could sit in the ship and play mini games. Maybe simple things like chess or other board games, but also mini games that relate to things in the game. Like maybe a research mini game that gives you a tiny amount of credits and is based on some of the things you’ve found. Or maybe even some arcade style games.

Either way, would definitely be cool to play chess or checkers with a buddy on the couch while your other friend flies you to a new planet that you can see out the window

Unable to load into my save [Bug]

Cannot load my main save file

My main save file just seems to have completely stopped working. Played yesterday without any issues, then this morning, when in the galaxy loading screen (where you move forward in the galaxy) boom - screen goes black for 1-2 seconds and I’m back at my Xbox home screen.

Tried everything, uninstalling and reinstalling, cleared the cache, deleted local save data and redownloaded from cloud, power cycled the Xbox, turned off multiplayer. I can create a new save file and play without problems but my main save just does not want to load.

I’m 135 hours in, I know it’s not crazy but still I have S-Class everything with farms and a whole setup. I really don’t want to lose it all, but I’m at a loss here I have no idea what to do anymore.

Piloting Corvette Remotely [Bug]

So I was flying my Corvette, parked it on my freighter, but then wanted to do some upgrades to my Fighter, so I took off from my freighter in my Fighter to go to the space station. I looked down, and saw that my Corvette took off too, and was mirroring the controls I was doing in my Fighter.

Outside Walkways on Corvettes? [Question]

Gigantic to Nano, All The Things to Minimalistic ... What's Your Corvette Preference and Why? [Discussion]

Spent some time yesterday watching Corvette build videos and, of course, checking out all of the new additions here and got to wondering why some people build these gigantic, complex behemoths and others slap three parts together and call it a day.

Sure, personal preference isn't always something that you can articulate. Sometimes its just what feels right. Got it.

But for anyone who feels like sharing ... why do you build the way you build?

[HELP!] No Man’s Sky randomly crashes and computer freezes. [Bug]

Hi,

I need some help with my PC regarding random crashes. My computer completely freezes when playing No Man’s Sky. During these freezes, I cannot close the program, access Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Delete or Ctrl + Shift + Esc), or use Alt + F4. I also can’t tab out of the game to shut it down, so I have to manually hold the power button to restart.

This happens specifically when playing No Man’s Sky, often when interacting with the freighter—such as opening storage or containers. I have already tried moving to a less populated system, but the issue persists. I am not using any mods.

Here’s what I’ve already done to troubleshoot: • Uninstalled and reinstalled graphics drivers; installed the latest Game Ready drivers from NVIDIA. • Checked for the latest Windows updates. • Reinstalled the game and verified the integrity of the game files. • Confirmed that the firewall allows the game to run. • Cleaned temporary files from my drives.

I recently installed a new router (ASUS RT-BE92U) and have 500/500 Mbps internet.

The crashes have occurred about 5–6 times so far.

System specifications: • GPU: RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB • CPU: Intel i7-10700K • RAM: 32 GB • OS: Windows 11 • No overclocking

Monitors: • Main: 32” 4K OLED, 240Hz (used for gaming) • Secondary: 27” 4K IPS, 144Hz • Third: 27” 1080p IPS, 144Hz

Other observations: • After several attempts to troubleshoot, my desktop background unexpectedly reverted to a previous one. • According to WinDbg, the crashes point to my GPU:

Code: 0x80000003
Description: Breakpoint
Faulting Module: nvoglv64.dll

I suspect the issue may have started after installing my new router. I have updated its firmware. My old router was an ASUS RT-AC66U B1 (Wireless-AC 1750), and I did not experience these problems before.

Is there anything I...

Thanks to the corvettes, I now love Gas Giant systems [Screenshot]

I wish the Gas Giant systems had a bit more variety in the distances the moons orbit at, I dont think I've landed on a single Gas Giant moon that didn't make the planet feel overwhelmingly large in the sky. But thanks to the addition of corvettes, I can pull up anywhere in the system and chill on my exterior couch lounge of my ship and enjoy some wonderful vistas at a comfortable distance.

This feels one step closer to the dream of being able to build your own space stations in a potential future update

Humanoid ground combat [Question]

I feel like some ground enemies like clearing a ground base of pirates or boarding an enemy ship to steel loot, or with the new update being able to board an enemies corvette to steel it would all be amazing. It would add more to combat on foot and mix up game play in a fun way.

Do y’all want humanoid enemies? Also do you think we will ever get it?

I've sailed the high seas before and tried it out like a year ago, and it ran fine with no hiccups whatsoever (GOG release). Even managed to play with a friend.

But now that I got this on Steam, it runs like crap. Did they release a massive graphics update that raised its minimum requirements? My system isn't the best, but I'm posting this because it ran better before.

Stuck on expedition, trying to find harmonic camp [Question]

I'm completely stuck with the expedition where you need to find the harmonic camp. I spent a whole day (in real time) flying around the planet that has dissonance, but I can't find a single camp.

I did use the echo locator as instructed, but that led me to a space anomaly, not to the camp. So the locator is gone. I know you can kill the drones to get a new one, but I can't clear a full camp of them and the locator really didn't seem useful, even when the instruction said so.

So how do I find the camp? Losing my interest quite quickly to the game, as this is just beyond boring if I need to spend several days in real time trying to find it with luck.

How do you accomplish the 10,000 u flight in another starship mission? [Question]

Almost every corvette is completely invisible, and the ones that I can see just boot me out instantly the second the pilot takes off. I've had 10 people try and let me on their ships and none of it has worked. I know it's an optional objective, but how does this even become an objective when the system itself is so buggy?

Am I missing anything other than resources if I skip this objective? I don't want to miss an interesting reward but I am getting really bored of waiting around at space stations for a ship that I can actually see, just to be flung into the void every time.

Performance issue on an RTX 4050 [Question]

I recently started playing this game and I'm having some big issues with the performance, despite using a laptop that normally has no problem running pretty demanding games with high graphics at 100+ fps. A friend of mine with the exact same graphics card has no problem at all running the game with high graphics, and if I try using the same settings as him the game becomes basically unplayable. I tried following a tutorial for optimized settings which are the ones I'm using in the screenshots, but as you can see from the fps counter in the first image they didn't help. Any suggestions?

I'm looking into start playing NoMansSky, but I'm not sure of things do do [Question]

I saw the game a good while ago, when it seems that it was just about exploring procedural planets and stuff. I know that the game took a really nice turn after the launch and updates like base building, and more recently a detailed ship building.

With all this said, is there like missions, or is just exploration? Can I make a farms? (I love farming). There is good combat? Honestly, I'm just want to hear your experience

I've played some Elite Dangerous, as my experience with space focused games. But as far as base building, I've played plenty of Don't starve, Minecraft, Terraria.

Weird bug when flying a Corvette class ship? [Bug]

So, I recently built my first Corvette class ship (yippieee), it took me hours to get a design I like and finish the interior. When I took it for its maiden voyage, I encountered a very strange bug. When flying, if I use the boost (holding circle on Playstation) and go from turning to the right and down, to then turning down and left, my ship goes absolutely crazy and spins like mad. I've stripped the interior in case something was clipping, but no changes, it still goes crazy. Is this a known bug that's come out with these ships or am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated!

Just started the expedition. Crash, corvette gone, lost amongst the stars. [Bug]

I just started the expedition and completed the first few milestones. Was on my way to the dissonant planet in my corvette then boom. Hard crash. After restarting I find myself in space. No ship in sight. Summoning it via the quick menu just brings an icon but no ship. After space walking to the space station and trying to modify my corvette I see that it no longer exists. Just a ghost, a Name. Building a new one isn't really a thing since i don't have the units to buy the parts. What do I do now? Is this bug common? Does restarting the expedition not just yield the same result?

Will your corvette replace your starships? [Discussion]

Now that everyone has spent some time and an expedition with corvettes, will a corvette be your daily driver (flyer), or will you return to primarily piloting your starships? Obviously, they are fun to build, but how are you finding the experience of flying, doing missions, exploring, and combat?

I’ll likely spend the majority of time in a corvette. I really enjoy the immersion and quality of life of having a refiner and mission board on my ship. I’ve also consolidated the interior space so everything is in arm’s reach and shortened the walk to the pilot’s seat.

If anyone managed to figure out a fix after dealing with this issue, any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

Can you scan the giant worms? [Question]

I've seen the red dots on them but I can never seem to scan them even though I'd easily be able to get a bird and longer ranges at much smaller scale. I don't believe they count towards the total for 100%ing a planet, but it would be cool to have in a wonder projector.

Need a Corvette Landing Pad badly [Suggestion]

Getting tired of warping to my base and having my corvette sitting ontop of my base computer. I actually couldn't even board it because a wall was literally blocking the gangplank, had to re-summon it further away.

How is everyone designing the inside of their corvettes? [Screenshot]

Interested to know what everyone is focusing on when decorating the inside of their corvettes. Are you going pure functionality or more homely?

My own corvette is designed as a home with a lesser focus on functionality. Please ignore the floating docking bay buttons. When I loaded the game today it seems to be glitching slightly.

Playing Multiplayer during an expedition? [Question]

My friend started a new save for the expedition and is still playing through it, hasn't completed it yet. We wanted to play together and I was trying to host with my main save, which has already played through and finished the expedition.

He couldn't join my game with me as a host. So he tried hosting and I joined his game. But then it had me start a new save where I was starting the expedition.

The process was a little difficult and I just wondered if it was just because of the expedition that was causing that? Would we have an easier time joining each others game in the future when one or both of us aren't doing the expedition?

Think about buy game but have a qurstion [Question]

Hello friends, my friend and I are thinking about starting this game, and with the new ship update out, I’m curious about something: for a full co-op experience, can we just play using only one of our ships? Like, can we only upgrade one person’s ship and always play through that one? Or at some point do both players have to progress their own ships separately?

Corvette expedition [Bug]

I am doing section 1 of the corvette expedition and am stuck on my final mission. Find the third rendezvous station. The emblem shows I’m in the correct galaxy, and when I scan in the shop or on foot the emblem doesn’t show anywhere in that galaxy.

Seems I keep repairing sentinel ships (I’ve done 5) and not getting anywhere. It keeps saying to use the galaxy map for the next point but shows I’m in the correct system when I use the map.

How to get cosmetics? [Question]

Fellow travelers,

How do you get more cosmetics aside from quicksilver sales on the anomaly?

For example, I found a really cool sentinel jetpack that has wings and I'm wondering if there are more? Are there any other ways to find cosmetics from other factions? More sentinel ones? I haven't been able to find much information online.

Thanks 🙏

Seems new update broke my corvette stats? [Bug]

Don’t know if this is happening to anyone else, on steam, just got an update when I tried to launch the game

Corvette is now only showing stats for damage and hyperdrive, my hab modules are no longer listed in tech so my cargo is limited to 8, I’m also missing slots for generators and engines I have on it, missing weapons, thrusters, it’s like my ship isn’t even there, but I can still see it and place them in the workshop

Yikes, lost my corvette from the Expedition... [Bug]

Welp, time to take a little break from NMS. Finished the expedition, built up a cool corvette I was happy with. I cloned/synthesized it over to my main save (which is relatively fresh), but it only recreated the OG ship parts, like from before corvettes existed. Invisible ship. Completely gone. I didn't see a save to go back to by the time I realized. I warped and reloaded the game trying to fix it before I noticed it wasn't just a visual bug, and that the actual parts, like hab and reactors, were completely gone.

I love HG and what they've done with the game, but these kinds of bugs are quite common. I would love if they just did "Update 20: Bug fixes, no new content".

A couple of questions from a newbie [Question]

What is the “start doing whatever you want” point? I can now summons the anomaly, should I keep going to unlock anything specific through story or can I just do what I want now? I want a better ship. I found a slightly better one compared to the starting ship but I need to repair it. Should I sell it/salvage it and wait, or take what I find and repair it? Corvettes - I think I saw that it’s an event that lasts for 6 weeks. Is this right? Should I rush in to getting a corvette or take my time knowing there is big juicy content there waiting for me? Upgrade scanner for money. I see people saying “get S tier stuff”. How? Where? Should I buy a new tool and upgrade it or stick with my little starter one and upgrade it? Do I need weapons? Isn’t that just the multitool thing with upgrades? Similar to previous question. Essential materials. Do I load up on a few basics and keep them for crafting, unrefined? What are the essentials you carry with you always and what can you ignore because it’s abundant and pointless to carry? Thanks!

Do Squadrons/NPCs do ANY damage? [Screenshot]

Still pretty new to this game, but just spent a good amount of time finding 4 S grade squadron pilots in decent ships.

How to rotate parts to any angle around the Z axis [Ship Builds Video]

I am not the one who found this method, it's this guy (thanks a lot for sharing it, it's very cool): https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1nbvkiy/side_loading_bay_no_mods_needed/

What you have to do is start placement of something like refiner, then switch on free placement, place it at the angle you want, then switch off free placement and go back to modify your ship with the terminal, then place a hab and let it snap to the refiner. Now you can snap anything to the hab that is at your desired angle.

Obviously, exact placement is a bit finicky, but this gives a new degree of freedom for placing parts and should allow much better looking builds that have angled sections not at 90°, or even curved forms. A lot of fiddling work, but could be worth it.

Something neat and new to me.. [Information]

I was rebuilding my Corvette from the Expedition... The problem with these ships is when you land many times it is in the middle of a building or the ramp in the back in blocked. So, I decided to add an interior stairs that leads to the top of the ship... I can now just jet pack to the top and get in the ship that way.
A bonus is that you can fly the ship with it barely moving and stand on the top of the ship and use your scanner to search out stuff. When you see something you like just jump off the ship and do your business. The ship stops moving and drops the beam me up scotty pod....

Wanting an explorer ship [Question]

Well, I'm still new to the game, I'm learning and getting familiar with it, but I've seen some videos about ships and how to get a lot of units by selling ships, but I wanted to get a more beautiful explorer ship before making the most of my experience in the game, but I don't know how or which planet or system I should look for to find them (if possible, I'd like one similar to the photo below, I don't even know if it's the right class).

Minotaur - Reconstructed Drone spoilers and questions [Question]

So spoiler alerts about the Reconstructed Drone missions ahead..

The tin says Mintoaur AI will engage in combat and assist in mining operations.

I've seen it go full Optimums Primal when I sneezed near a drone - pretty entertaining. Yet I can not figure out how to get it to assist in mining. I hoped maybe I'd be able to tell it "find x of y" and it will do it's best with the local area.

What's more is I built the AI Pilot and now the Hard Frame Body is also an AI... so.. no reason to keep both? It's not like they talk to me or each other, unlike the drone. Further frustrated by some of the modules getting constantly damaged in combat under AI which just creates busy work. At least without the AI when I jump out the sentinels leave the exocraft alone.

The arm upgrades were nice I guess, I was let down by the leg upgrades - I was really hoping the minotaur would be able to full on sprint after getting those. The body upgrade is just another AI so I guess I'll get those resources back from the Pilot AI.

So more of a minotaur skin then anything else, which is fine I definitely read into what was going on to much.

Alright. How do I get to the Galactic Core? [Question]

I don't wanna use glyphs. I dunno about black holes, but I guess I'm open to the idea. Aren't they random, though?

For a while I was just jumping closer towards the light in the middle, but apparently that's not how it works? Okay. I guess.

I've looked this up and maybe I'm just not getting it? I tried to follow the orange line to its end for every jump, then do so again, and again for a bit but I don't think this is it either.

Am I missing the point, or did I just not look at things the right way? I'm confused... I wanna jump all the way to Eissentam! (I'm on Hilbert after the main quest.)

Wanted to play back on my day 1 (+ a few weeks) save when... [Discussion]

I realized I would have to wait a "little bit" more than I thought...

PS4 day one player, I left the game for some years before hitting the space again a few years ago on Switch. I decided today to get back on PS4, for several reasons (find back my very first system, testing the cross-platform feature and... yeah... see some real graphics, I hope).

I think it will be for tomorrow 😅

Guys, what a way since the beginning of this beautiful game, it's still hard to realize sometimes...

Help Me Break The Cycle [Question]

No Man’s Sky is one of my favourite games of all time, but I’ve only ever scratched the surface.

Typically each new update brings me back, and I start a new save on custom difficulty so that I can quickly experience the shiny new features. I haven’t done a proper, standard difficulty save file in years.

Like many people I find the early game tedious, and ironically this contributes to the cycle of restarts. Without costs, without grinding, I lose steam quicker than I might otherwise.

The Voyager update is perhaps my favourite of all time. After building my “ideal” corvette in creative, I was left feeling rather empty. I think it’s finally time to commit to a long-term save file.

Do you have any advice for progressing though the early game quickly? What does your typical progression look like? I know that there are many ways to enjoy this game, and that most yield a reward in some form or another. What should I focus on first?

I am particularly interested in saving enough units to build a corvette the “hard way,” and in reaching purple star systems, as I’ve never seen them before.

TL;DR What are your priorities when you start over in No Man’s Sky?

unable to board corvette after landing on planet [Question]

So weird one. Flying corvette about no problem. Go to an archaeology site, land ship, get out. Ground is flat.

Some of the site is buried, so I need to dig it out. As I do, - and I'm not sure if this is relevant - I end up digging right up to the ground under the corvette. It seemed a chunk under the corvette was 'protected' from being dug out.

I go to get back in the corvette to move it. Can get up the ramp and into the ship no problem. ... but I cant sit in the cockpit seat. Nothing obstructiiong it, jsut the option to board does not come up.

I can go and use other items in the ship, like nutrient processor etc.. but doesn't matter what I do, I can't get the option to board in the cockpit to come up, so the ship is just stuck there.

reloaded a few times. Tried undooing terrain edits. Tried a bunch of stuff but can't get into the cockpit seat to fly off. no option to do so appears :(

Anyone got any ideas?

Introducing… The Constellation Orion [Ship Builds]

This ship will take you to the center and back …

The Constellation Orion is my second built ship, had to learn the offset trick in order to place many of the parts. Took me a good half a day after work to pull this off.

You can probably guess my inspiration was the RSI Constellation but had to adapt it to my style and parts provided by the devs so far. That being the semi-sleek 2-part body with the backside being slightly larger, 2 front “wings” (thinking of changing the shape, maybe scale down) and 4 massive engines.

The equipment on this whip goes as follows:

Engines (4x) Kineostream Thrusters (2x) Pyrodrive Boosters

Armanent (1x) Phase Beam Array

Power (2x) Zenith-Class Reactors

Shielding (1x) High Energy Shield

Communications (2x) Radar Domes (1x) Antenna

Cargo (no clue this baby stock af)

Accomodation (bring a blanket, the floor gets kinda cold during warp time)

Yes you will ask why not put some more guns on this bad boy. The answer is that I could not find any better spots besides above the cockpit that could fit well onto the fusselage of the craft and not ruin the looks.

The shield generator is hidden somewhere beneath the backside radar dome.

In the future, now that I see the images better, I will have to reshape the backside to make it look sleeker/rounder from the from. Also the 2 frontal wings should be scaled down, maybe work some offset magic. And of course mOrE GUnZ.

The frontal Radar Dome shapes using the Speedbird Nacelle where an inspiration from a post I seen a couple days ago, so cheers dude!

No interiors for now, gonna have to find some decorations first and come up with an update, but I curently have the following setup in order from the front to the back: Cockpit (of course) Cube room before the cockpit (the one with square windows) that should become a navigation room or something Long...

Can't find this multitool [Question]

Pictured is a multitool, possibly a compact rifle style, that I've been looking for with no success. What I'm looking for specifically is for it to have the stock, the angled robot jaw front and the round beta mag in front of the grip. Color is completely optional.

I've looked through the coordinate exchange and done my own searching in game, especially in systems that have it displayed like this one does TWICE, but can't find it in any of the minor settlements or stations.

Any help is appreciated.

Duality of Landscapes [Screenshot]

A desolate world locked in ice, where the sun is but a pale glow behind veils of mist. Sparse, lifeless vegetation clings to the frozen ground, and jagged minerals rise like the bones of a long-forgotten giant. Cold, silent, and unyielding, a realm untouched by warmth or hope.

Lush greenery stretches as far as the eye can see, trees swaying beneath a violet sky. Above, a colossal ringed planet looms like a guardian moon, casting shimmering light over the landscape. Glimmering particles drift through the air, as if the very atmosphere were alive a paradise both strange and sublime.

MP Guilds, and passive socialization [Suggestion]

Hello, new player here, only been playing for a week. As a disruption to all the beautiful ships being posted I'd just like to suggest something I'm sure has been suggested many times before - Guilds, with a Guild chat function.

One feature I've always loved in MMOs (and yes, I know NMS is not an MMO) is the "passive socialization" you get from having a zone-wide chat. Now, this doesn't make much sense in a game like NMS, which is why a guild chat seems like the perfect alternative.

Maybe it's just me, but I think it would be so nice to be able to chat with fellow guildies while I'm out on some desolate planet looking for copper. To be honest, I'm not even a very social guy, so just reading other peoples convos now and then would be nice.

I realize this idea might butt heads with the feeling the game is trying to portray, so it would make sense to have it as an optional choice in the settings, or something you can only enable after completing the main storyline (Guilds in general).

Anyway, just rambling. Maybe there's others out there who get what I mean. Or maybe it's an awful idea that'll destroy the very identity of the game:)!

How important is the new community mission? [Question]

Slow loading + low fps [Question]

Just started playing this again on my PC, first day or so i played the game ran perfectly fine, but now i'm get really slow rendering when landing on planets, and i get a lot of fps drops when walking around, usually sits around 90fps but drops down to around 20 then back up to 90ish constantly, game saves also started loading pretty slowly also.

PC specs - CPU - Ryzen 7 5700x3d GPU - 4070 Super 64gb of Ram 1 x 1Tb m.2 and a 2Tb m.2

I've played around with graphics settings and this hasn't done anything, also swapped the game between the 2 nvme to see if one of those was the issue, same on both, uninstaller the game and downloaded it again

Any ideas to help out?

PARADISE | No Man's Sky (PS5) [Fan Work]

20 hours of system hopping to find the perfect planet! Took me all weekend. Towards the end of the video there's a better view of the network of systems I searched. It's pretty vast...

Anyway, it's a Paradise class with green grass, blue water, blue atmosphere, calm weather, and low sentinel activity. As if that wasn't good enough, it also has rings, a moon, and salvage sites for corvette parts.

The system itself has three planets with ancient bones, so I'm setting up "research" bases on them and assembling displays for the main base.

I might get some hate, but I'd like to keep this private, so no glyphs! I've been having coop issues where parts and even whole bases permanently dissappear when others join me. I'm sorry! Maybe when I retire from this save, I'll release it.

This is the first video in what I'm hoping will be a colonization series. Enjoy!

I'm Now Addicted to this Game [Discussion]

Hello!

(37M) Bought NMS on digital on release day in 2016. I didn't return it following the backlash. I enjoyed it for what it was, I played it for a month or so, but yeah...it was underwhelming.

Fast forward to today, I saw the Voyagers trailer and knew right away that I had to get this on PC. Luckily, it was $23.

Everything about this game is next level now. It feels lived in. You encounter other players. There are real missions,

I love the corvette builds and all of their features, they look less cartoonish than the smaller ships. I love that you can space walk, even if it doesn't really serve a purpose.

Still, I modded the game to make space completely black. I didn't like that space looks pink or green.

The only thing that holds the game back, in MY opinion, is that the planets are too closely spaced and the planetary surfaces look too cartoonish. If these two features were in keeping with, say, Elite Dangerous, I think this would be a near perfect space sim.

In just two days alone, I logged 25 hours. This game is now everything that was promised almost a decade ago and well-worth the purchase.

Still hard to believe that a near ten year old game still beats Starfield.

When should last gen support be cut and how would hello games go about it? [Discussion]

I've been wondering this and I honestly am not sure what the best solution is. The pros to cutting future updates would mean that future updates could be much bigger and take fully advantage of the hardware further than just visual updates. Obviously the cons would be a portion of the player base would be cut. I'm assuming LNF will be current gen only so maybe when that releases NMS will be current gen only too?

how tf am I supposed to complete “One, Zero” expedition milestone? [Question]

for reference, to complete this milestone you need to shut down a planet’s sentinel forces by completing the 5 sentinel waves.

I’ve been trying for a few hours and it just won’t work. I’ve gotten strong enough to reliably beat all the sentinels, but every time I’ve almost gotten to the end and the sentinels end up losing track of me and I “escape” the encounter because half of the sentinel drones in the wave just end up wandering off to somewhere else and I can’t even run over to them in time before they all lose interest.

what am I supposed to do?

So this is my current build. It is real, I fly it around. I would like to upgrade it. When I walk up to the workshop to modify it before I change anything it says "warning all modules must be connected". If I tried to finalize the ship that already exists as it is, it will not let me, but if I back out, the ship still exists. if I change anything about it, it will not let me finalize it. I think it might have something to do with this portable refiner I've had inside my ship, but I don't get it.

Is there a way to backtrack to a previous autosave in a file? [Question]

Hey everybody,

My main save got borked on the expedition. Basically every time I try to load it the whole game crashes out. I'm sure I can send a bug report as a hail mary, or alternately it might be fine when the expedition ends and it tries to load into the anomaly instead, but I'm wondering if there's a way to just access the previous save and see if it'll load where I was a few minutes prior to the broken one.

Landing Corvettes [Question]

Corvettes don't seem to land on landing pads and I am wondering what to do with my corvette at my base. Maybe put down a few floor tiles and use that as a landing pad? The problem is where my base is the ship lands with its rear end in the air (kind of embarassing) and takes up a lot of space.

Cant figure out what this thing is. [Ship Builds]

This is the Stellar Hound LCN6 ….. It has 3 decks (not including the cockpit), so technically 4. Its got a hold, a canteen, crew quarters, a medbay, a farm and an engineering room. Built like a mallet, hits like a truck. I cant tell if its a small frigate or a very big corvette. Is it a smaww fwigate ow a vewy big cowvette? Pwease hewp

like I’m thinking homeworlds sizes. Maybe im just not used to the size of corvettes from a non rts angle.

My corvette is “critically damaged”? During a important part of the story [Question]

I went through a portal for the first time, and after all the story mode stuff with the Atlas and ending up on a planet where I had to find and board my ship (same planet null appears on and you find the Artemis hologram) terrain blocked the entrance to my corvette so I called in another ship. Now I want to call my corvette back, but the game says it is critically damaged and it can’t be summoned? Help? I don’t want to leave my corvette on a faraway planet

EVE Online Algos V1 (WIP) [Ship Builds]

Currently still working on getting parts "unlocked" (Though I know I could PROBABLY go creative, but not as much fun... trying to explore as I go) That and I'm having fun seeing how others have put their ships together.

I always was a big fan of the Algos from EVE Online as well, and the form factor seemed to be right in-line with the Corvette style of ship. This is a SMALL take on the ship, and I imagine I'll be needing to get a lot more parts to get the right ratio/size to get a true representation of the ship.

Sadly not a lot of "side" parts I've found so far, and the windows are... leaving a lot to be desired (the Algos has a lot of "Space Submarine" Vibes). As such, I tried to mimic as much function as I could. You'll notice the shield/cargo pods in the rear, Radar Dish, Access ramps in the back (typically reserved for Drones), view ports in the front and rear, as well as guns on both sides (even though technically only two of the guns of the four work).

My (Hopefully) Ship for a while, but this also a suggestion for ship saving! [Ship Builds]

My ship (Stage 1, update later tonight!!!!!)

All you should need to do is make a new menu for selecting between the inventory and module area of it when you finalize a ship and it shows you what is in the components of the ship. (What it's made of)

All you have to do is make this a stable preset with a possibly scrollable infinite amount because honestly storing those prices as data would not be difficult at all, you could give a piece a text symbol to save it as and text files are good on long-term data!!!( Cockpit = ∆, thrusters =

I hope you guys are implementing this RN because it would be DOOOOOOOOPE let me share my ships pleeeeeeeeease!!!!

VR Corvette Part Placement Bug Fix [Information]

I found it very strange that there weren't able to fully rotate corvette parts and also no left and right side versions- seemed to make lots of the parts pointless, but was seeing people have those parts seemingly rotated on their ship builds.

Turns out that you CAN fully rotate parts! In non-VR mode there are two separate 'Flip' options, however in VR-mode there are two 'Flip' options, but only one of the two flip is mapped to a button by default, meaning you can rotate a part, but not mirror/flip it to have left and right side versions.

Easy fix thankfully! While NMS VR is running; open SteamLink dashboard > go to controller bindings > edit your current bindings > go to 'Corvette Module Placement' bindings > add a 'USE AS TRIGGER' option to a button (I used left-grip, since right-grip is already the other flip) > set the 'Click' option as the boolean actions control labeled 'Cycle Base Part'.

All done! Now you can rotate/flip/mirror corvette parts in VR just like in non-VR! Happy building travelers!

I love this game, but man this expedition has been a mess for me [Bug]

I’ve tried like 5 times to do that last mission with the wave of sentinels and nothing happens after the 5th wave. Watching Jason plays, he has a big mech show up but that never happens for me. Super frustrating. Also the graphic glitches have been some of the worst I can remember. So many times I have flown to a space station and it will decide to just throw me into the geometry.

Build glitch [Ship Builds]

I’m sure this is documented somewhere by now but incase it hasn’t, I discovered that it is possible to extend your builds beyond the boundary with this exploit. I’m on PC 6.03 so I’m unsure if this applies for console players. Read the entirety of this as there is an important caution I will touch on at the end.

To do this, you simply aim towards a suitable location where the part shows green, and then quickly aim at the intended location while placing the part simultaneously. This forces the part to be placed in a location it would not be allowed otherwise.

This works best if you’re able to angle the camera in a position where the component snaps directly between the suitable location, and the intended location. It can also be done by changing the orientation of the part in a position that is suitable to one that isn’t while placing at the same time. Basically any time a part is green, it can be quickly moved anywhere else and placed.

This exploit can ruin your build. How? Well if you’re like me, thinking you were smart by force placing blocks beneath the ship to serve as a platform to stand on for adding base parts to the underside of your vessel, then likely just ruined your build.

The blocks that were placed low enough to clip through the floor, can no longer be accessed or deleted, meaning you will not be able to simply delete said platform later once finished decorating. Instead you will have loose parts that can’t be edited and meaning you build can never be confirmed. Luckily I made a back up 10 minutes earlier so that was lucky.

This might sound incredibly obvious but I was far too excited by the possibilities that I overlooked this important detail. 😅 Also, I would hope this doesn’t get patched as it’s incredibly useful, but we’ll see.

My brother and I are having some connectivity problems. [Question]

We're in the same house trying to play No Man's Sky together, but for whatever reason, it disconnects us after a few minutes. We can't stay in the same group, so we really can't play together. We're also both playing on PlayStation. Is this a known issue, or is there something we can do to fix it?

Second attempt at recreating the Hercules starship into a corvette [Ship Build Contest]

This is my second attempt at recreating the Hercules A2 from Star Citizen into No Man's Sky.

This time, I managed to keep the number of part to 100 while adding more depth, volume and smoothness compared to the first design.

Although, I feel like I still haven't managed to gain the curved downward wing motion of the real starship...

Mine still feels a bit stiff, heavy and straight even though I maximized the use of glitched parts.

However, I haven't managed to reach a better result yet!

Feel free to criticize !

Enjoy !

Base Building Outsourced [Question]

OK so I've been playing for a while now. I've got bases across a few galaxies, all on planets that are nice n comfy.

But they're all a bit blah, you know what I mean? I see other players' bases and they're mind blowing. And I'm hella jealous. Which leads me to my question: Is it possible to have another player build a base, inside and out, for me?

Basically, I want a contractor to build me a house, fill it with furniture and then turn over the keys. Is this sort of thing possible?

We are crossing the glitch building event horizon — It is now possible to place corvette parts with arbitrary position and lateral rotation [Information]

First off, credit to https://youtube.com/@artofdadel17?si=z8jzp5iXJxMkgdbr

I don’t know if they’re the first to discover this, but their video floated across my homepage and opened my eyes to try experimenting with this. They have some quick tutorials on how to line up 45 degree angles, so check them out.

Now, on to the guide, which is actually really simple:

tl;dr: free placement in the interior build menu still works even though it looks like it doesn’t, and interior pieces which snap to hab modules also let hab modules snap to them.

Have your corvette docked at the editing pad at a station

Approach it on foot and open the interior build menu

Select an item which normally snaps to a specific point on a habitation module (stairs, wall modules, and windows work for this)

Enable free placement. The placement preview will disappear, but it’s still working.

Place the item anywhere that the game considers “On the corvette,” inside or outside. Specifically, your cursor needs to be on the corvette. Sloped pieces, or placing your item on the side of something, can be used to impart vertical position.

IMPORTANT: Re-disable free placement. If free placement was active when you closed the menu it stays active, and the station’s corvette editing menu won’t let you place anything while it is.

Use the station’s corvette editing menu. You can now snap habitation modules to the item you placed. With stairs and wall modules, the hab can be flipped 180° between two different facings, while with windows you can cycle between all four 90° facings.

It’s literally that simple. Go wild.

The final barrier is finding a method of imparting vertical rotation onto a corvette module. Unfortunately, these snappable interior pieces...

Is there anywhere you can buy modules with units instead of nanites? [Question]

I started this game a few days ago, I need nanites so I can get exocraft upgrades from the anomaly but I’m sorely lacking. I do however have 50mil units so I was hoping to buy some modules and sell them for nanites, but I’m not sure if that’s possible.

I read that it could be done in pirate stations but it seems like the only ones there can be purchased with tainted metal, I’m guessing that ways been patched?

Lost my ship and stuff? [Question]

I went to go make a new Corvette. My original thought was to empty my inventory into my Starship inventory and freighter inventory so that I could have my EXO suit free of space for all the parts to be able to build the new Corvette. After I finish my ship building I went ahead compared it claimed it and then when I went to go back to my old Starship, which is a sentinel Starship, I could not find it at all, not even in my summoning ships. I've tried going to the frighter and I could not find my Starship and I have a lot of important items inside of it. I've tried reloading saves but I guess it auto saved and saved another time because I ended up going into my new Corvette. So I'm out of luck when it comes to reloading to save. I just want to know if all my stuff is just gone or I'm just stupid and not looking in the right place.

Observation Lounge on my USS Enterprise [Ship Builds]

Tried my best to make the Next Generation observation lounge, complete with the enterprise wall ☺️

Making the enterprise has been sooo tricky and I’ve got some hope that maybe the devs will give us an update that allows some more round shapes on a larger scale so I can make it look more sleek. But regardless, I’m really happy with how I’ve managed to make it spacious and fully functional! I needed a few tries to get it right, and I took a look at some other builds on here for inspiration on how to make it better!

Anyways I’m very proud of my Enterprise wall, I have never really made a post like this before so if anyone has any ideas on what I could add next to my other rooms, please let me know! 😁

Advice for more fulfilling exploration? [Question]

After a handful of hours exploring planets, I can't help but feel like I'm now seeing the same things over and over again. Every planet is one of a handful of biomes, the fauna are just mismatches of the same handful of limbs, you can find virtually identical plants in multiple systems, the caves on every planet are seemingly identical, etc.

And then there's the ruins/evidence of civilization, I've found the exact same layout of ruin on the last 5 planets I've been on. The settlements seem to boil down to a handful of hand-crafted buildings picked at random.

What do you do to trick your mind into not seeing the same things over and over again, and have it still feel fresh when you land on a new planet?

Unpopular opinion: regular ships are better than corvettes [Discussion]

By the time I finished the corvette expedition, I was so bored of my corvette I went back to my regular ships and haven't looked at it since. Why? They park farther away from everything and ain't nobody got time for that Too many bugs still (yeah they'll be fixed but they're annoying) They feel slowww I just want to get from point A to point B efficiently, and my freighter and ships already perform that function I suppose building custom ships can be fun for a while, but when that fun wears off it's still like driving a giant minivan around The rear hatch never seems to touch the ground when landing on a planet and it's irritating to have to jetpack up a tiny step to get back in, we can invent teleports but not a simple extending hatch I mean why bother

BattleCruiser Operational - Again [Ship Build Contest]

Tweaked a couple things on this build. Think it's looking the closest we can get with current parts available.
Would really love to see narrow tall parts for connectors. Like a half a hab module wide would be perfect, one a single block tall and one 2 blocks tall. Then some iterations of that for the different ship styles.

I like the cruisers with the heavy fans. This one is basically the Hyperion with The old school larges side engines from Starcraft 1, and the mid wing lifter fans from Sc2.

Quick little showcase too.

EAS Agamemnon [Ship Builds]

Somewhat limited by the lack of vertically sloping tapered parts, but I think it turned out great with what we're given! I just wanted to make the front a little more streamlined instead of boxy. Pretty close to the complexity limit, but it's got a lot of space inside for building. No glitches or anything, all built in game.

Gonna try to build a shadow ship next. Vorlons will probably be easier, though!

Nice bug [Screenshot]

apparently you can food the game into allowing you to use color schemes only meant for devices (like your teleporter and stuff like that) on your structure components

i just hope that when they'll fix this, we'll be getting a system that allows us do the same thing legitimately, I'd be even happier with getting access to customizing our base colors kinda similarly to what the devs of snowrunner did

This is my first max part count Corvette I've made, and I love it! It's got everything in it I could need and more! Stats are in a lot of ways better than my old starship (all except the DPS but eh whatever).

I built this thing in creative as I got tired of bugs taking away pieces that took me literal hours to collect. I have probably around 50 pieces that have been rendered unsuable currently. Despite that, I fully upgraded both the class, and storage/technology slots in survival.

A lot went into this ship. My save got corrupted right as I finished the exterior and I had to load a save from hours before. Meaning I had to completely rebuild this lol. But now it's finished and I can cruise in style!

Please feel free to comment some critiques and tips!

Hope you enjoy :D

Not really enjoying this expedition. Am I missing something? [Discussion]

Playing on PC.

This has been a slog of bugs and glitches and it's getting really old. Between shuddering video, enemy ships that flash ahead of where they were, and gravity suddenly shifting directions, and other problems, I'm really not having any fun with it and it just feels like a chore.

For some reason I started the expedition with a persistent thing in the quest log that kept telling me to land on a derelict freighter. Then randomly having a derelict freighter materialize while I was on a planet, causing the screen to shift 45 degrees and make my guy fall far enough he almost died. Then I had to summon my ship because the jetpack didn't have enough fuel to get back to it.

I rescued a freighter from pirates and when I tried to land on it, I landed on the things' shields instead and floated out of the corvette before getting back in and taking off to make a second approach, but the damned thing had vanished without a trace.

I've been enjoying this game for years and have completed most of the expeditions without much trouble. But this one just feels a buggy piece of shit and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Corvettes aren't slow (Part 2) - 6452 Maneuverability [Ship Builds]

I was able to max out my maneuverability a bit more. I marked supercharger slots with yellow dots so you can see placement. X class mods are near max. 6358u/s boost in space, 3347u/s boost at sea level.

Note: NMS lies about speed. The speed in space is a small lie, the planet side speed is a massive lie. Maxing speed was just for fun and to match the theme of the ship.

Failed recreating the 890 Jump, but pivoted to a sci-fi sailor ship [Ship Builds]

I kinda ran out of time last night while building this, and just wanted make a post at least to show off a little with what I was able to pull off. Those sleek and curvy lines of the 890 are no joke, and I don't got the time or skills to pull it off.

I was pretty happy with this design though, because those other sailing ship looking ones had me thinking "why not go for a sailing ship that looks sci-fi", and that's what I ended up with.

I didn't show it off in the vid, but this has the water launch pads. Too bad it lands 20 ft above the water. Also, that compartment near the back entrance is pretty bugged, and idk why.

Empty Nexus Glitch [Bug]

So my game has glitched badly with the new expeditions update. I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same. I had a great time completing the new expedition but I noticed something along the way. I haven’t seen a single player at the Nexus since. At first I chalked it up to being an expedition issue, and figured it would go back to normal after. It has not. I’ve been done with the expedition since yesterday and it is still completely empty. Not a soul around, which is a bummer. I’ve closed and restarted my console, I’ve reloaded the game, I’ve checked network settings and my multiplayer is on,….. it seems like this bug might be permanent for me,…. Which is once again a total bummer. Anyone else?

Do you still use Fighters, Hauler, Explorers, and other single-seater ships? [Discussion]

For 9 years, a big part of No Man's Sky has been the quest for that perfect ship. Hopping across Galaxies to buy them, salvage them, or even fabricating our own from salvaged parts, everyone had their own goals. But now that we have Corvettes, I struggle to find a use for fighters, haulers, explorers, exotics, and other ships. Corvettes are so convenient. Sure, there's some recency bias since it's the new shiny, but I wonder if we also lost something with this update.

I still only half know what the fuck Im doing, but I dont want to look things up. Its just better if I teach myself the core stuff, so i dont just fall into the trap of looking every little thing up in perfectionist mode.

Have any of you done anything similar? I want to bulld ships and stuff but im so far off just unlocking all the little stuff. Any tips for keeping a streamlined strategy, so that i dont lose interest? That's my issue with open ended games, I start so much shit and then get caught up spazzing out on one bullshit things that doesnt matter (thanks hyperfocus), and end up losing the drive for the actual story.

Im just a bit overwhelmed wanting a lot of the stuff that I cant get just yet, but I don't know what I should prioritize.

Moon and earth INFO [Information]

Hello there! I just discovered a truly fascinating planet, and I couldn’t wait to share more details about it!

First of all you’re not going to believe this but the planet actually has a parrot look-alike creature. You can clearly see it in the slide I’ve included.

The climate is absolutely perfect, with an average temperature of just 24°C. And if this Earth doesn’t suit your taste, no worries it has two neighboring “versions” right next to it. Each one comes with its own unique twist: one world is covered in icy waters, while the other is nothing but endless land with not a single drop of water.

I’ll also provide the glyphs in the pictures so you can find it yourself.

But here’s the best part: this “super Earth” is fully habitable, with zero storms. So if you were planning on settling down somewhere safe, calm, and beautiful you just found the perfect place.

Why haven't Ship (and Corvette) parts and fossils been added to mission rewards? [Suggestion]

Like a lot of people I'm digging the new corvettes, but hunting for parts is pretty boring... same with the fossils. It would make a lot of sense if the new kinds of randomized loot from the last few updates were added to the pool of possible mission rewards. I'm talking all kinds of missions: Guild missions, frigate missions, nexus missions, etc.

It would even be easy to tailor the kinds of parts to the mission source: Explorer guild missions would provide launcher, engine, and utility parts for corvettes, explorer, shuttle, and solar ship parts, etc. Meanwhile Combat Guild missions would provide weapons and shields corvette parts, fighter ship parts, yadda yadda.

Because lets be honest, who does missions for anything but slot expansions and quicksilver anymore? Having packs of parts be a mission reward would certainly get me doing them more often, and be an additional and more varied way to farm for loot people actually want.

Anyone use a HOTAS? [Discussion]

Flying a ship, whether it's NMS, Elite Dangerous, or X4 just doesn't feel right without a HOTAS. I play on PC and use the emulator at Jocys.com to have my Xbox Thrustmaster work. And of course I switch back to gamepad for anything on foot.

And while the game is still wildly "not a sim" compare to something like Star Citizen or Elite Dangerous, I do think it feels better these days than it used to... especially flying a corvette.

Anyone else prefer the HOTAS route for ship flying?

Extremely Low FPS When Exiting Ship/Corvette in Space Stations [Bug]

Occasionally when exiting my ship on a space station (think its sometimes is the case on the anomaly too) my fps drops to around 20 fps down from my capped fps of 136. This only happens when I'm actually outside my ship within the station and fixes itself when I re-enter.

Is this a common bug? Is there anything I can try to fix it?

I initially thought it might be the alt tab bug but after trying out borderless gaming and still getting it I doubt it.

Earth and Moon Information [Information]

Hello there! I just discovered a truly fascinating planet, and I couldn’t wait to share more details about it!

First of all you’re not going to believe this but the planet actually has a parrot look-alike creature. You can clearly see it in the slide I’ve included.

The climate is absolutely perfect, with an average temperature of just 24°C. And if this Earth doesn’t suit your taste, no worries it has two neighboring “versions” right next to it. Each one comes with its own unique twist: one world is covered in icy waters, while the other is nothing but endless land with not a single drop of water.

I’ll also provide the glyphs in the pictures so you can find it yourself.

But here’s the best part: this “super Earth” is fully habitable, with zero storms. So if you were planning on settling down somewhere safe, calm, and beautiful you just found the perfect place.

Some suggestions for a potential (on-foot) combat overhaul [Suggestion]

Secondary Weapon overhaul

I'd like to see the combat scope removed as a secondary weapon altogether and instead, integrate it into the multi-tool either as a base function or as part of an installed weapon.

Other secondary weapons that could use updates are the launchers. Currently, there are separate grenade launchers for different tasks (geology/paralysis/plasma) that all use the same unstable plasma as fuel. What if, instead of separate launchers, there was just one? Other launchers would be replaced with new types of craftable plasma fuel that correspond to each grenade type. For example, Unstable Plasma would now recharge the launcher with standard plasma grenades, whereas something new, like "Electrified Plasma," would load paralysis mortars instead.

Multi-tool QoL updates

With the current max slot cap of 60, we're able to fit just about every weapon type (and upgrade) into one multi-tool. But I don't know a single person who does that. Why? Because cycling through all those modes one by one is a hassle, especially in the heat of combat. (With the current state of combat, there isn't much of a need for such an arsenal anyway. More on that later.) But what if holding the cycle mode key brought up a radial menu of both the multi-tool's modes and secondary weapons? No more cycling through modes and Secondaries, which would conveniently free up a keybind for the newly integrated combat scope.

"Huh...upgrades." - Neo, The Matrix Reloaded (AKA Making combat more dynamic)

So many different weapon types....yet only two--maybe three--see regular use besides the boltcaster. Currently, you find a weapon you like, upgrade it to Ultra Instinct levels, and cackle with glee as the shattered sentinel casings pile up at your feet.

Enter: Weapon-based damage types and resistances.

Picture this: Sentinels have damage resistance/weakness...

Forward Unto Dawn from Halo (UPDATED w/ more informative images) [Ship Builds]

Made some small detail changes and I moved the cockpit down below (this was a more practical change as the original design had you going up 3 stairs just to get in the cockpit, if you wanted to go more accurate, you could move it to the middle or the upper tower for a more accurate look if you don't mind climbing) Also made some changes to the shape of the side wings to better replicate the real one. And I added more detailed images so people can get a better idea on how to replicate.

Copying your corvette from the expedition to your main save doesn't work [Bug]

I had a beautiful Autophage scout shuttle (based on Beckhaver concept and video tutorial) which went with me on my adventures during the expedition. (this is the only pic I have...) I just finished it today and copied my ship over to my main save thinking I would actually conserve the design... but no, I'm left with this absolute"corvette-placeholder" of a ship.

(Every installed tech is still there, but the rest have been randomized based on the parts this random corvette went with)

Cannot complete phase 1 of expedition 19. Please help [Bug]

I have already done everything else in the expedition, the only milestone I have left is the second milestone of phase one that has you create the corvette. I cannot, for the life of me, get it to except that I've already created it. I don't understand why it isn't working. I've tried taking it apart and putting different modules on it but it hasn't made a difference. I've even turned the game off and on again. nothing I have tried has worked.

If anybody has an idea that would work to fix it, please let me know.

Game just suddenly doesn’t want to work? Any ideas? [Bug]

I bought the game not that long ago and yesterday played for about 3 hours straight, left the game open while afk for another hour, came back and played for another like 45 minutes before getting off, and had no issue what so ever, no frame drops, no crashes. Then today I launch to play the game and suddenly I can’t get past 10 minutes with out the game crashing. I’ve searched everywhere for error that appears and ran several fixes yet to no success. The game with start to freeze getting slower and slower until it stops and closes. I haven’t done anything to my computer, graphics settings or drivers since purchase of the game so have no idea what could be causing this especially after had been running it fine for basically 6 hours. My frames are completely fine with my graphics settings to High tho I run the game on standard/enhanced. This seemed like a Vulkan issue but my gpu says it’s Vulkan compatible.

Corvette just flying on it's own [Video]

https://reddit.com/link/1nc663h/video/t36i7g51l1of1/player

Title says it all, my Corvette just decided to fly on its lonesome.

I was just about to return to my freighter when I saw a familiar sillhoute and trail on the right side of my screen so I followed it and to my surprise it's my corvette!

But to be fair it wasn't really flying on it's own, it's more like mimicking what I'm doing with my current ship. Still a fun bug regardless. 😁

Abandoned freighters photo gallery [Screenshot]

Corvette Expedition, Rendezvous 3, Bohutahi Prime.

Dissonant planet. Gravitational anomalies.

This has got to be the best expansion No Man’s Sky has released. I was searching for Corvette modules in the Corvette expedition, and chanced upon this scene where two abandoned freighters were visible in the sky framed by both the land and planet above. The planet I was on was also very beautiful and had plenty of interesting visual elements(including floating tassel lilies) that lent itself to good photos.

I’m not much of a photographer(photography isn’t my hobby) and so I don’t take many photos nor share them on reddit, but this scene was so rare and too good to pass up.

Crazy how scenery this good is just in-game and not some cover art or promotional footage.

Also, since I had to learn how to transfer photos from my Steam Deck over to my device in order to upload them, I added a couple photos I’ve taken over my NMS gaming days for good measure.

A long time casual players opinion [Community Content]

Look, I've been playing this game for a long time. Mostly casually as I have toddler and work a lot. I just want to say that some of the bases and now the corvettes you all are building are fucking impressive. I'm so happy people find that much joy in this game that I casually piddle with. Love you all. Keep traveling.

#

Friendly Reminder [Fan Work]

If you’re going to put the corvette on autopilot because you have twelve minutes to the space station, and that’s just enough time to make a sandwich, be sure not to have nipnip in the trunk.

Also if you are having trouble placing corvette ship parts it may be because you have free place enabled

Happy adventures fellow interlopers!

I found a hollow plant that I could go in and it was gone when I reloaded my save - do plants despawn when you shut the game down? [Question]

I just started playing last night and I found this cool plant that looked kinda like a hollowed out pumpkin. I spent my evening building a base around it, it was the main chamber of the base and it had my refinery and base computer etc set up - when i loaded up the game tonight the plant was gone and my refinery etc. were just floating there a foot off the ground.

Do plants always despawn like this or is this just a glitch?

400 Gravitino Balls in 20 Minutes - "Eldorado Gravitino" Moon (Runoku XVIII) [Discovery]

Early in my playthrough, I jumped through a black hole and landed on a moon that's absolutely absurd. 😳

Right from my first step on the moon, I stood in front of a 10-ball stack of Gravitino Balls. There are 14 pools in total within line of sight, and you can practically jump from pool to pool – thanks to the lunar gravity, almost without using a jetpack.

400 Gravitino Balls collected in just 20 minutes – practically unimaginable for an early game.

Visually unimpressive: copper, rusty metal, salt, life-incompatible, no weather phenomena. But the gameplay moment? Simply epic.

Name of the moon: Eldorado Gravitino

System: Runoku XVIII

Check out the spot yourself if you witness it – and feel free to upvote so others can discover this moment.

Anyone seen a planet like this? [Question]

When I first started playing a long time ago I settled on this beautiful paradise planet with purple grass and blue seas and skies. No sentinels and only superheated rainstorms. (pictured in the grid of screenshots there, I’m not sure how to open them for a clearer look at the moment). I came back recently after one of the overhaul updated that happened not too long ago to find the planet was completely different in every aspect aside from it still being paradise like (other picture, green grass).

All the features I loved with the old world are basically gone now and I was wondering if anyone has come across a world similar to the one mine used to be or if there’s any tools I can use to try to locate one just like it online so I can resettle and get that old serene feeling back.

I’ll be checking back in this post periodically to answer any questions that might help you help me. Thanks in advance for the help!

Minor Issue with Corvettes [Ship Builds]

Don't get me wrong, I love corvettes.

But they are BIG.

And the issue arises when I use the warp gate to teleport to any of my bases or settlements. Because the game tries to put the Corvette where my regular ship would sit.

For some, that's not too bad, it's just completely blocking and squatting on a landing pad far too small for it. But other times i end up trapped in my own base because my corvette has spawned on TOP of it, and is clipping through most of the buildings.

We need a corvette landing designator of some kin d so we can designate a place they can land that isn't INSIDE my Settlement Overseer office.

Water world corvette soft lock [Bug]

I just realized you could theoretically soft lock your game by having no ship with aqua thrusters and taking your corvette to a purple systems with a water world that has zero land and skydiving from outside the atmosphere (meaning no beam up to your ship) and no charge on your terrain manipulator (so you can’t make a landing spot which I mean would take a while anyways given how deep those planets are)

Possible fixes

A possible fix could be a simple menu option for teleporting back to your ship or freighter or something (not intended for gameplay use just a anti softlock method)

Or have water worlds pull ships in with their gravity making them fun to orbit and serving the function of making sure you can always beam to your ship (have it be minimal when piloting your ship but very extreme when not and quite literally yank your ship from even near the space station)

Or have their atmosphere be too thick to enter without the water thrusters upgrade (idk say it’s also a shield upgrade or make a new upgrade that lets us fly underwater too) and this would create a cool effect of skipping across its atmosphere make it bouncy or smt

(On Xbox series x btw) One minute I'm finishing exploring around someone's base. Go to beam up to Gigantor and see the beam pod isn't there. Go to summon it, and the icon is replaced with what looks like a white dwarf star. Summon my og Radiant, and go to switch back to Gigantor, and it just isn't in my list of ships to summon.

Stuck inside corvette, any ideas on how to get out? [Question]

I just did my first purge since picking up the game, and I spawned in with all my gear and ship equipment broken. The first thing that I did was run over to my corvette and stupidly teleport inside, because I didn't know that it was broken. The way that it spawned has the landing bay facing a hill, so I can't walk outside. I don't have the materials to repair it, so I can't fly away, and I don't have access to my terrain manipulator to mine my way out. Any ideas?

So, I was wanting to edit my Corvette after getting some new parts, and I had previously decorated it with some interior stuff, including a skull I found.

Market crashing and inventory space [Question]

I’ve recently returned to NMS and have been market crashing using a full exosuit inventory of cobalt given that cobalt is guaranteed to be sold at every station.

Problem is that I have found I have to sell my exosuit and ship inventory one at a time. So I speculate that by the time I’ve sold my exosuit inventory, any cobalt I would sell from my ship would be at a crashed price (-80%) and would not be worth it? I feel that if this is true then a hauler would be obsolete given I can hold more myself.

Can someone please confirm if this is true and if there is a way to sell both inventories at once, not one after the other?

Hear me out: The Next No Man’s Sky Expansion Should Be All About Asteroid & Space Mining [Discussion]

I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky on and off for years now, and while planets have gotten a ton of love, with mechs, water worlds and stuff. I feel like space itself is still underdeveloped. Asteroids right now are just floating resource nodes—shoot for Tritium, grab some Platinum, move on.

Yes there are some space anomalies & encounters, black holes, and even some more that I myself haven't encountered yet.

But imagine if Hello Games made an expansion where asteroid mining and space industry became a full gameplay loop. Here’s how I picture it: 1. Asteroid Belts as Actual Biomes

Instead of random scattered rocks, we could have dense asteroid fields that feel like their own ecosystems. Navigating through a thick belt could be dangerous but rewarding, with giant “motherlode” asteroids containing rare ores.

Some could be hollow where you can fly through it like in Star Wars or Trek, depends on what show you like, hiding ruins, derelict freighters, or even strange fauna. Space would become a place to explore, not just a backdrop. 2. Mining Ships, Tools & Autonomous Drones A new starship type specialized for heavy mining. Mining lasers that carve into asteroids instead of just vaporizing them. Deployable drones you can launch from your ship or freighter: Surface drones that scuttle across asteroids, cutting into rock and returning with chunks. Drill drones that embed into large asteroids and send back resources over time. Planetary drones you can drop on worlds to mine autonomously while you do other things.

You could even manage fleets of drones from your freighter, upgrading them with AI cores, efficiency modules, or combat attachments to defend themselves. 3. Risk vs. Reward Gameplay

Mining shouldn’t always be safe. Some asteroids could be unstable—dig too deep and you risk collapses, gas...

Good lord is Nitrogen hard to find. [Discussion]

Stranded on Planet [Bug]

Hey, looking for a little assistance. I’m in the middle of the Expedition and I just did the Stardiving milestone and now I can’t summon my ship. I jumped out without beaming down and back up fist so there isn’t a teleporter. I just get the “cannot land here” message when I try to summon my ship. I’m on the planet Doninch Prime in the system with the fourth rendezvous station (Ushuna-Redit). That’s really its name! If someone one could swing by and pick me up I’ll just jump onto my ship and I should be good. Thank you.

Finished expedition 19 [Question]

Hi I am a very casual No Man's Sky player who jumped back in after a long period of not playing because the Corvette stuff looked cool. I just finished the expedition and am not sure what to do about finishing. I want to keep my ship and some of the unique rewards like the egg thing you get. How do I finish this and go back to my regular save without screwing myself over? I did start this from my original save.

Will the devs ever add more civilizations/races? [Question]

I just got into the game last week, and i’ve been addicted so far. This is genuinely the most fun sandbox/exploration game I have ever played. However, one thing I constantly find myself wishing for is more aliens/civilizations. I’m talking about full blown cities/starbases on planets that get generated randomly. Is this something realistic that could come to the game or that the devs might add?

#

Replay current expedition? [Question]

So I guess I screwed up and hatched the egg of the current expedition’s reward while still in the expedition and now I don’t have it after ending the expedition. Is there a way to repeat the expedition for the same save or can you only do it once? Wouldn’t mind grinding it out anyway since I got 60m credits and 18.8k nanites in a little over 3h, plus the storage augmentations for the ship, exosuit and multi-tool.

Corvette Spontaneously turned into a living ship?? [Bug]

This is weird. I was walking around on a planet and went to summon my corvette, but it showed up as a living ship! The name was the same, but it's the wrong ship type. Has anybody experienced this bug or know how to fix it? I swear to God I'm going to delete this bug infested game if I have to start over on my corvette.

One request [Suggestion]

There is one thing that I’ve wanted in No Man’s sky since the beginning, since seeing those original trailers, and it is biomes. If planets had varied ecosystems, even if it was just “polar regions” vs “equatorial regions” they would feel a lot more worthwhile exploring. As it is you can land anywhere on a planet and it’s basically the same as any other place on the planet. Ideally I would love biomes to vary from continent to continent

Ideas and a planet for base [Question]

I am starting fresh again in no mans sky after taking a solid year or two break and I wanna really get into the game and base building I feel like I have barely scratched the surface when it comes to production and proper colonization of the stars, so basically I am wanting to build a city and I want to do it on a populated good production planet that has some active players. I am also wanting to see some base designs if anyone would mind sharing I have only managed to build slightly obtuse boxes and I would love to see some templates.

I wish the next update will address the combat system [Discussion]

I love the game and the effort HG keep putting in the game since almost 10 years but... I find the space dogfight and the on planets combat very frustrating... I'm not saying I wish there were combats like on Elite Dangerous, but every time I have to do any kind of combat I get super annoyed. I really really really love space fighting, but on NMS I always avoid it like a disease, and when I am forced to do it during expeditions I ofter ragequit the game for hours because it looks incredible to me that in a space game (one of the best 3 space titles at the moment) like NMS, the mechanics are so shallow that the only equipments you can use are passive (shields) or simply a range of weapon that don't difference that much one the other and at the 3nd of the day you just drive in loops, or in reverse, or both at the same time. Similar thing the on feet fighting, I find it shoddy and unnatural. I will probably be super downvoted and I apologize if I sound harsh, just I really can't understand why they don't bother to hive depth to the fighting dynamics, especially now that spaceships and Corvettes are such a pivotal aspect of the game. Edit typo

CR90 Corellian Corvette "Siege Sprinter" [Ship Build Contest]

Inspired by Real Jank's own creation, as you can probably see from the engineering section, I took some hefty cues from it and official media to create one that looks the part and has a functional interior of 8 habs worth of living space. Consists of 30 unique parts that weigh in at a chonky total of 98. I do have a parts list if anyone is interested, but given this is for the build contest I'm just keeping this post lite.

What update would be the best next/most anticipated one for you? [Discussion]

This is one of the best updates. i love working on corvettes for hours. So i was thinking that I’d be really interested to see a new combat system, as well as battles in spaceships, new enemies, weapons, or factions and races. New enemy freighters that could be boarded, with gunfights in the corridors. Where you could gather a squad and go on a ground mission or a space mission.

Doing my first permadeath run! [Discussion]

After close to 1000 hours on No Man's Sky since launch day, I've decided to bite the bullet and start my first permadeath save.

I've set some restrictions for the run. • No Anomaly awards, like Expedition & Twitch awards (Nexus missions are allowed). • No "exploits" for credits or nanites. • No save scumming for Ships, Freighters or Multi-Tools. • No using Portal coordinates to find a good Ship, Freighter or Multi-Tools.

First impressions after an hour of gameplay is a deep regret...

... A deep regret that I haven't been playing NMS this way from the start!

Seriously, it makes every aspect of the game that little bit more interesting, and everything is a challenge which is exactly what I wanted.

I almost died to a radioactive storm in the first 10 minutes, sitting in a cave with literally no health left and one symbol remaining, I felt the difference with every action I took.

If anyone has some advanced tips for a long time player that would help for a permadeath run, I'm all ears. Or if anyone has some interesting challenges to add in, I'm game. I like to think I'm extremely knowledgeable in NMS lore and gameplay. I love this game and have since launch.

But as I've learnt many times with this game, there's always something new.

Did I just lose everything? [Question]

So the problem is, I filled tons of goodies in the cargo racks of the corvette.
I was just editing my ship build again and deleted my the main hub module, and every cargo rank, mission radar and living walls are gone.
And I don't see my items being deposited into my inventory.
Did I just lose my 4 hours of salvaging and farming??

Is there a way to recover it ??
Is it just a bug or the way it's implemented ??

My Friend was building a corvette and stole a piece of mine [Bug]

So my friend was in the middle of building a Corvette on a space station,
I come in with my Corvette but for some reason the game decides to land me on the same parking spot that my friend was already using for their corvette build.

Since I landed on their edit zone, my friend told me that they managed to steal a piece of my ship. I took off from the space station, got outside of my ship and noticed that the piece my friend took was really gone.

I don't know if this issue was mentioned before but this was pretty funny to us

Still figuring out photo mode [Ship Builds]

I just logged in for the first time since the update yesterday and have already spent far too long in the garage. She’s not all that functional stat-wise and all I have is a kitchen on the inside but it makes me happy looking at her and that’s all that matters to me. I’m just getting off my Cyberpunk grind so my fingers aren’t used to the NMS photo mode controls (and i also know fuck all about photography lol) but i’m excited to snap some pics of the 500 corvette iterations i know i’m bound to create.

Can't add materials to Settlement Construction Site [Bug]

I was able to build the Overseer Office just fine, and chose to build a Medium Dwelling right away. At first the construction site icon was stuck on the management statue in the center. I reloaded the game and it moved over here but there's nothing I can interact with. I tried reloading again and nothing changed. I have the materials for the 1st(?) construction step. Still brand new to this game, am I missing something or are these bugged?

Crazy idea: give Freighters a new purpose [Suggestion]

Freighters should have the ability to jump between galaxies!!

Warping between galaxies has always been kind of a hassle I think we should have a upgrade module that you can unlock to travel to different galaxies with your freighter

I love the new corvettes and would love to see more for them, but they do kind of diminish the specialty of freighters due to their size and storage capability. By upgrading freighters like this it would make them more worthwhile for the player to use and gives them a reason to dock.

This would be a very late game upgrade and after the player has traveled to another galaxy themselves. And it could be a rare fuel and pop you out in a random destination or something to keep it balanced, so it’s not just infinite distance warp.

But if they did this and updated the map to allow the player to zoom out more even more a select between galaxies that would be so cool and help to ground your current stars location more and help the exploring.

What do you think and do you have any ideas on how to improve freighters now?

Squad Support Gunship [Ship Builds]

This one has a separated cockpit airlock, and a lift on the platform up to the operations deck. You can sort of make out the platform in the last image.

The platform is just an evolution of the needed offset thermal grilles under the Thunderbird landing bay so you don't fall through due to the weird collision. But I really like the internal elevator gimmick, so in my head a dedicated battle deck for squad ingress makes sense. Or something.

Rebuild my Corvette [Question]

Two simple questions: I have a Corvette, and it's upgraded (from C-Class to B, A, or S), if I redesign it to remove all parts and start over, will it still be the same class, or does it revert back to C-Class (in other words, does the class follow the placed parts or the entity of the ship itself)? If i remove the parts where there is placed internal modules (food processor, plants, ...) - will these modules be deleted and the contents disappear when the module is removed and replaced? (in other words, should I try to store all these contents before doing a redesign)?

My corvette turned into freighter pieces. [Bug]

I was flying my corvette around to autophage camps. My ship disappeared, and when I summoned it again, it was a collection of freighter pieces(as pictured). When trying to rebuild the ship, I was unable to remove one of the pieces, so I'd have to suffer that massive eye sore if I want to use this ship again. I did attempt to reload my restore point, but it retroactively effected my save. Has anyone encountered this issue and found a work around?

I already submitted a request with the zendesk.

No Man’s Sky 2025 Discovery, System & Planet Tracker (Google Sheet, Auto-Fill + Dropdowns) [Fan Work]

I made a Google Sheet to track my No Man’s Sky discoveries because the in-game discovery tab just wasn’t cutting it in terms of organisation and honestly, it was triggering my OCD.

It started as something just for me, but I thought I’d share it in case anyone else finds it useful and/or is in a similar boat to me. You can track systems, planets, biomes, weather/hazards, fauna, sentinels, pretty much everything. It’s colour-coded, copy-paste friendly, and even auto-fills a bunch of info based on what you select. It doesn't track all the minute resources but I felt it was enough for me to feel more at east about my organisation.

It was inspired from a spreadsheet made in 2021 by Chemist18 on Nexus Mods, however it is now extremely out of date so I decided to make a new one from scratch. Feel free to share around :)

Colour coding & key features: Yellow cells → type your own inputs (system name, planet count, etc). Orange cells → dropdown menus (faction, planet type, weather, etc). Blue / Purple / Green cells → auto-fill based on selections. Dark gray / black cells → just spacers for layout. Light gray cells → free notes/comments. Checkboxes → mark hazard planets, moons, bases, or whether you’ve landed.

Tips: Make a copy via File > Make a Copy to use it yourself, and leave a spare row at the top for easy copy-pasting when logging new systems. Make sure to check the HowToUse and Example Sheet at the bottom :)
Link is below.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LaiBaeUy9ak6YwsM1PMUeiHel1-zOItZJQyl2P6e5-o/edit?usp=sharing

Edit: if anyone has any issues please let me know, I can try get around to fixing. It should work all fine but just in case. Again, it was originally put together just for me to use :)

Sentinal Boarding Party [Screenshot]

Community Notice

Sentinals can board your corvette.

Multi-tools won't work inside your corvette...

######## End of Notice ########

I wish we could close the corvette landing bay while planet side, to avoid stowaways/critters coming onboard. No critters have boarded yet, but give it time.

When leaving the planet, the sentinal seemed to get into the ship parts, as I kept hearing their noises and seeing its marker around the ship. When returning planet side I was immediately attacked.

Thankfully they didn't attack me on the ship, that would have made things interesting.

Can we please have a flame thrower to deal with ship infestations, boarded critters?

This could be the downside to corvettes.

Else it completely overpowers single seater ships.
An alternate weakpoint could be to remove the hover ability and the ship needing space to land. This would make some planets only accessable by smaller ships.

Is there a way to tell exactly which products will be sold for a profit at trade surges? [Question]

I've been doing them and making a good profit because most of the product that I buy sells for a profit but sometimes there is an item or two that sell for less than I bought them for.

All the trade surge says is to go buy stuff from a specific economy type but as far as I can tell there isn't a list or anything anywhere that says which items won't sell for a profit.

Corvette parts question [Question]

Are there certain rare Corvette parts that can be found in the wild or as rewards that are better than the base ones? Do all Corvette parts work at the same basic efficiency?

If the only grind is finding the perfect shaped cosmetic piece I don't need to worry too much but I want to be sure.

Running into invisible boundaries when building a base on my freighter [Bug]

I'm trying to build a large base on my freighter, mostly copying a layout someone posted a while back. I understand I'm supposed to have a 21x21 grid on which to build, but I can't get more than 14 rooms in, going in a straight line, including the initial 3 corridor pieces.

I am able to place a few more corridors, but I cannot move, nor can I move the camera any further. Is this a known bug? Do I have to place specific items in order to expand the available space?

I've tried re-setting the base, warping to a different system, saving and loading. but with no change in behavior.

Easy dreadnought/freighter Hunting with corvette [Discussion]

New method for dreadnought/freighter S-class farming

The advantage of this is you can see both the attacked freighter and the pirate dreadnought classes making this a 2 in one hunting

Ship deleted and/or invisible [Bug]

So I during the „a leap in the dark“ after the teleport from the atlas station to the new system, my ship kind of got deleted? I had my ship marker and everything but the ship wasn‘t there. I could interact with the inventory and everything (also repair the damage) but the ship is invisible and otherwise not interactable. I can switch between my other ships and the invisible one freely.

I thought maybe I can scrap it, but when I approach the scrapper at the space station a hologram of something looking like a corvette (??) appears and I can‘t scrap my ship.

I‘m a bit bummed out because it was my first S-class ship…

Does anyone have an idea if it‘s in any way saveable? I tried reloading but to no luck.

Can't copy expedition rewards to main save... [Question]

I hopped into a multiplayer game where my friend already started the expedition. I foolishly missed the chance to start from my main save. Now that I've completed the expedition, it doesn't allow for any sort of copying at the expedition terminal. 10 hours in, this is a bummer. All I really want is the option to bring my corvette over.

Is there a way to save the day? Alternatively, can I restart the expedition from my main, get the corvette, and then fire it back to my main as soon as I grab it? I'm unbelievably rich on my main profile, so I can afford to buy whatever parts I would miss out on in the expedition.

HG needs to adjust the Main Story [Discussion]

With the influx of new players in NMS, I think that they desperately need to change the main story. The gameplay, I mean. The story of this game (which I love) is weighed down sooo heavily by how bad the gameplay of the story missions are. They're repetitive chore missions at their core. A decent chunk (including myself) of players want to blitz through the story to access content locked behind it (for me it's the autophages) but the main story is such a sloggg. I really hope one day that they change the main story and add different gameplay rather than "go here, walk 500 units, talk to someone, craft this" and repeat. Sometimes the gameplay is so bad it kept me from enjoying the story.

Newbie Question: What does the corvette link to when teleporting to my base? [Question]

Sorry if this doesn’t make sense. I am still new and trying to figure things out in the game.

When I am in say the Space Station or anywhere and teleport via portal to my base, the corvette will spawn clipping through my base and 90% blocking the door. I know the landing pads do not work for them yet.

Is where the Corvette spawns dependent on where the portal is? Or is there something I can do to prevent that from happening in the future?

Returning player...should i start the corvette expedition or a normal game? [Question]

Howdy! I'm returning to no mans sky after about 3.5 years off, and have no existing saves. I remember the basics like how to recharge life support and make chromatic metal etc.

Am i ok to (re)start by selecting the expedition which will then "turn into" a normal save afterwards? Is there any downsides to this, might i miss out on any new enhanced tutorials for features that have been added in the last few years (like err...underwater stuff or...settlements or whatever?) Or will the game just give me quests when it turns into a "post expedition" save game that will point me towards new stuff?

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to those corvettes.

How much VRAM does this game require???? [Bug]

I've been playing NMS since release. I've always been able to play on ultra, but the last few updates I've been having to lower my settings quite significantly. Now my latest issue is that VRAM seems to keep constantly filling and never emptying, so after an hour or so of gameplay, my VRAM is full and FPS absolutely TANKS.

I'll start out on a planet surface and everything is fine with about 6.5GB VRAM usage, then it'll just slowly creep up as I visit other planets, stations, my capital ship etc. After 30-60 minutes it'll hit 8GB and then anywhere I visit afterwards it just keeps creeping up, hitting my FPS more and more.

It happens on all settings levels, but obviously more noticeable the higher settings.

I am well within current Steam minimum specs (there are no recommended).

There is currently a big Steam discussion about a VRAM leak, and it does kinda feel like nothing is being unloaded from VRAM correctly.

Anyone else on crappier systems and struggling with this?

CPU - Ryzen 5600x

GPU - GTX1080 8GB (I know, it's old, but so is this game and it's what I've always used).

RAM - 32GB

SSD

Resolution - 1440p

Current settings - Enhanced

Returning after a break; what’s the best/quickest way to get starship storage augmentations, now that guild envoys have been nerfed? [Question]

I’ve just come back to the game after a break of maybe a year to play with the corvette stuff, as I’m sure lots of people have as well.

I’m looking to upgrade my corvette but obviously need more tech slots! Previously I’d just have station bounced, picking up expansion augmentations from the same guild envoys, but it seems like they each only give one now, and then no more.

Other than just jumping at random and hoping I find more guild envoys with starship expansions, what’s the best way to farm them now?

Expedition 19 - New Player Perspective... [Discussion]

From a new player perspective, who knows nothing about this Expedition stuff... but thought all I had to do was to build a Corvette to start it...

But nope... that didnt do it, and I couldnt figure out where to view my "progress"...

So then I googled for a little help and learned I had to visit the Expedition Terminal on the Anomaly...

So I figured ok cool, I'll just go there, do the 'sign up' process and it'll note that I already started my corvette, etc.... but nooope...

Instead it starts me all over from the very beginning on a whole new save with no resources; none of my existing stuff... and the original starter ship thats disabled... which when I finally reach, oh gee it tells me I have to fix or.. build... some communication gizmo thing to advance the quest; which requires chromatic metal to complete...

Soooo.. ok press F to use my visor to locate some copper deposits and nooope... none around!

I had to hike over 2000u on foot to find some, which I felt lucky to have found a few sodium plants and oxygen plants along the way.... and when I finally did find and reach some copper, someone else had built a base next to it and I was not able to mine it.

Nevermind the fact that I could have brought resources with me? I didnt really understand that part... and didnt really know what it was telling me to do so I started the Expedition with nothing...

So... google says I can "restart from the main menu" by starting a new save and selecting 'join community expedition" ... so I figure ok cool... I'll just go and restart and this time I'll be sure to bring along all the resources I need to get started quick.

But noooope... it wouldnt let me do that, instead it just restarted me straight right back into the expedition with nothing... again...

I got frustrated, and went back to my main save.

Then the game promptly crashed to desktop....

Marine Research Facility... Come See The Waves! [Screenshot]

After the fiasco of discovering the hard way that water worlds now have tsunami-size waves now and then, I decided to build a big marine base so people could check it out.

UNFORTUNATELY despite me building very, very, very high up, the waves are still larger. But hey, it's kinda cool that way. The base isn't fully fleshed out, and I suspect it's already too detailed given the size--colors I've customized keep resetting etc. But do feel free to visit, or build on this world. Dimension is Hesperius, planet requires a purple drive to visit, and glyphs are in the final pic.

The Emerald Star [Ship Builds]

Hello, This is my attempt at a glitch built corvette. It was heavily influenced by u/Beckhaver video build on YouTube. This style really makes the build feel organic so huge praise to them for sharing awesome builds. i had a concept for a ship but just couldn't get the feel right until i saw there video and my imagination went wild. A little lore below.

Behold the Emerald Star. A repurposed Orion class Corvette. In the past this ship was used for stellar cartography and deep space anomaly exploration. It has now been upgraded with Pulse Drive and Shield enhancements to be a used for smuggling and blockade running. The previous holds that were filled with scientific data collection have been turned into hydroponics bays to grown a number of mind altering a psychoactive fauna from across the galaxy's. Ill be traveling the Cosmos and setting up shop for all of your chronic needs. Peace and love travelers, see you in the stars.

My production times in one settlement varies greatly from my other settlement? [Question]

The first settlement takes almost 36 hours to produce anything, meanwhile my second settlement takes much less time? The second settlement shows varying production times between more valuable and less valuable items too, while all the items from the first settlement have the same production time. Is this a bug or just how it is?

BUG WARNING: Lost Storage Via Corvette [Bug]

Hey all - just a warning about a bug I experienced. I was excited to realize I could link to my storage containers on the Corvette and got it all set up but then did a bit of editing, after which one of my storage containers has been totally emptied - it was the container containing all of my accumulated ship parts 😭

I can only assume this happened because at one point during the building process I deleted the hab that contained the storage containers. I haven’t done any testing on this but my suggestion would be that if you have storage built into your corvette and you want to make some modifications that you first manually delete the storage from the build menu before entering the corvette editing screen. My assumption is that this would probably avoid this issue.

Apologies if this is a well known bug already!

PS5 Black Screen Bug After Voyagers Update [Bug]

I’m having PC problems so I went and bought NMS again for the PS5, but 25 minutes into a new game I ran into an issue where when entering the atmosphere of a planet the screen went black except for the HUD. I can still hear the ship and control it, but can’t see it.

Loading a previous save did not help, but restarting the PS5 fixed it so that I could see again within the atmosphere of the planet. However, on exiting the atmosphere and returning to space, the screen went black again.

Does anyone have a fix for me? If not, any word on a patch in the works for this problem? I know people experienced the same thing after Worlds Pt 2, but not sure if it’s happening to others after the Voyagers update.

See the turtle of enormous girth, on his shell he holds the Earth..." [Ship Builds]

Version 1.0 of my Maturin-themed corvette.

Ship designation: SK0L-P4DD4

Role: Nomadic bridge between The Dark Tower and whatever station needs some intergalactic Nipnip

I'm enjoying the corvette update much more than I thought I would. Hands-down, one of the best updates out of all of the ones we've received so far. Thank you so much Hello Games!

Time to journey along the Beam, and look for more parts to improve this eternal turtle...

Will multicrew on Corvettes be expanded in future updates? [Question]

Corvettes are such an amazing step toward shared ships in No Man’s Sky. Right now multicrew mostly means walking around inside while the owner pilots, but it feels like the foundation is there for so much more. Do you think Hello Games might expand on this in future updates – maybe with proper crew roles like weapons, shields, engineering or navigation? I’d love to see multicrew become a core gameplay experience, almost like Sea of Thieves?.

Continueously experiencing white screen crashes. [Bug]

Playing on PC (laptop) and anytime the game updates or I leave it for a day or so, it'll white screen crash when loading a save. I have been able to fix it by loading another save or updating my drivers in the past. But it's a new issue every time.

Really bad Corvette bug [Bug]

Recently, I've been having a really bad bug. Whenever I'm outside of my Corvette and calling my capital ship, my Corvette deletes itself entirely. It's completely gone. I can't recover it unless I go back to a previous save.

Has anyone else experienced this bug, or is it just me? I spent over an hour building my ship, only for it to vanish completely and be unrecoverable half an hour later. When I try to recall it, it's like a ghost ship. I can hear it landing, but it's completely invisible and there's nothing there.

Corvette issue [Bug]

Alright so here’s the deal. I was finalising my corvette and had just decked it out with some sweet engines and weapons and went to get some emeril with my explorer as my corvette hadn’t the required engine. I get the stuff, teleport back to the space station and re-summon my corvette. Only to discover that a bunch of upgrades were missing - namely the engines. It still flies and everything but it’s acting like they aren’t there in terms of the stats. But the engines are clearly there on the ship itself? Went to go do a mission and my corvette flies like a brick - I assumed at first it was cosmetic for some reason. I’ve deleted and re-added the engines (and the reactors and weapons too) and nada. I’m at a loss here guys. Any advice and tips are welcome. See screenshots - I hope they help.

Weird LOD bug(?) [Bug]

I've only had the game for a few days so not sure if this has been a thing for a while or not but I couldn't find anything here or on the internet, but it seems like parts of my sentinel ship are using comically low distance thresholds for LOD switching, hitting what I assume to be the lowest LOD at only 40u away, while the highest LOD doesn't seem to activate until I'm literal centimeters away from the ship.

Anyone know a fix for this? I'd rather my ship that I spent way too long looking for didn't look like it was made of play-dough whenever my face isn't pressed right up against the hull...

Corvette erased from existence [Bug]

I had recently shared my corvette based on the Onyx Cinder from Star wars here a bit ago, as well as getting it to A-Class and furnishing it, but yesterday it just entirely glitched out, i traveled to my settlement where I saw it on the landing pad fine.

But as I summoned it the UI icon was invisible, the model was invisible both in world and inventory, and when I attempted to reset it by summoning a regular fighter it completely disappeared from my ownership, not in the hotbar, not in my freighter archive, just poof gone.

I put a ticket in and have a video showing it i can post but it just is very unfortunate that it happened as i really liked my corvette and put alot of time and money in it, though I understand its a bug and will likely be patched out as the update is fixed.

Ive picked out a nice interceptor i have and have started focusing on freighter stuff instead of immediately replacing her, has anyone else encountered this?

Corvette Decorations collision fixed! [Information]

Update 6.04 just dropped, and so far, no more weird collisions or death spirals! Finally able to fly into the station entrance at breakneck speed again! \o/

Jokes aside, this fix is really liberating. In my case, since I have a hab at ground level, any decoration placed inside would trigger the death spiral instantly and permanently. Now I can finally decorate my cargo hold! ^^

Expedition with friends? New save? [Question]

Hi there! I've started playing NMS with two friends a few days ago and we have a "shared save": I mean, one of them started the game, and then we joined to play together, and now each time one of us wants to play we just open that save and the others will join at some point to continue exploring at each one's own pace, helping each other and such.

After backlogging a bit in the subreddit, I'm reading that we should better start a new save to do the Expedition in solo player (or if in multiplayer we should deactivate pvp) and maybe that save will be better than our current one, and that we can also start it from the Anomaly and then transfer things back to this save (which I imagine is the main one for each one of us).

So now, the questions: Is it possible to do the Expedition with just my two friends in multiplayer? Will we be able to transfer things and keep them in our shared world? If we start the Expedition by ourselves, do it solo, and find out that our save is better than the current one, could we "merge" again in a save in the future with all our stuff? How to do it? Could someone please enlighten me about what would be the recommended approach in this case?

Btw, last night, after exploring the Anomaly for the first time, I found some corvette parts somewhere and now I have a quest to build my own one. This isn't related with the Expedition, right?

I'm sorry if these are dumb questions but we are newbies. Thank you so much in advance!

This is an Indie game, If you expect 10/10 aspects like story, combat, or interactions, this isnt the game for it. Doesn't mean it wont come in the future, but tone down your expectations if youre expecting something thats from a AAA studio. [Discussion]

Title. Ive been seeing a numerous amounts of posts of people saying certain things are underwhelming like the story and combat. What they fail to understand is that this studio isn't some AAA studio. Thats not to say we wont get it in the future, but coming to this game expecting star citizen graphics and Skyrim level interactions is CRAZY. Tone it down.

How do I progress story? [Question]

I finished the part of the main story where I installed Apollo's Personal Forcefield and now I can't seem to progress.

Ghosts in the Machine is stuck on "collect Nanites to buy Technology Upgrades. Nanite clusters are found where-ever there is old scrap or technology to be salvaged. Abandoned buildings are a particular rich source. Purchase new technology blueprints on the Space Anomaly. Purchase upgrade modules on Space Stations.

The Space Anomaly is stuck on Search for Artemis & the mysterious Apollo. Purchase Technology Blueprints or base parts aboard the Anomaly. Undertake missions with other Travellers from the Nexus, or exchange discoveries and rare products for Nanites.

I have done this repeating "abandoned building" thing about 15 times and currently have over 9000 nanites from converting the eggs. I have bought everything that i want from the shops in the Anomaly and and upgraded everything numerous times in the space station.

What next? What am I missing? I've done this before numerous times, so don't worry about spoilers.

I read online that The Atlas Path isn't directly connected. Was this wrong? Do i need to proceed on the Atlas Path to progress these two?

Top tip: don't leave your restore point as your corvette [Bug]

I left my restore point as my corvette, parked at my freighter but when I loaded back up I just fell through my corvette and I'm stuck in space... I tried going into my freighter but there's an invisible wall when I try going through without a ship, I don't know how to get unstuck from where I am so I just gotta wait for a friend to get online so I can join them.

Corvettes - is there a way to choose which guns fire? [Ship Builds]

Aspiring Nip Nip farmer, where should I sell? [Question]

I’ve started making a massive Nip Nip farm (my current math says 1760 buds per harvest), and I’m wondering, how should I sell it?

The MAIN question I have is, does selling lots of Nip Nip to the trade terminal make the demand go down or up? I’ve seen conflicting information, some saying that I should sell to random NPCs otherwise demand goes down and it becomes useless, but others have said that as they sell Nip Nip, its demand increases. I don’t know which is accurate, it’s more than likely any source I’ve seen is outdated or blatantly false.

Other than that, I assume I just sell in high economy Gek systems, yeah?

(Also, while I’m here, how long does it take Nip Nip to grow? My current math is going off of 4 hours.)

No corvette piece left behind [Ship Builds]

My first expedition, so I'm not sure what the rules for carrying back over into the main save are, and I wanted to make sure I get the most back.

So once I did all the goals, I took all the leftover pieces from the corvette design cache and attached them to the ship by a scaffolding strut.

So now I have the ship I built and used (green) pushing along a whole junkyard (grey-red)! Good thing there's not stability requirements like in Valheim.

And it came up to a perfect 100 pieces! Well technically I had to delete a couple of windows from the actual ship, but that's fine since they're craftable on the spot anyway.

Was this necessary? I still haven't finished the expedition, so still not sure what actually gets carried over. Like the final reward egg, if I hatch it in the expedition, do I get to claim a separate one in the main save?

Salvage container spawn inconsistency? [Question]

Are there any factors that impact how many there are?

No corvette piece left behind! [Ship Builds]

My first expedition, so quite unsure about the rules for carrying stuff back over to the main save.

So to make sure I got the most back, after I was done with the goals, I attached all the leftover pieces to the ship I used by a single thin scaffolding strut.

Now I have the corvette I built and used (green) pushing along a whole junkyard (grey-red).

Was this necessary? I still haven't finished the expedition, so still not sure what gets carried over. Like the final reward egg, I see I can't put it into the Anomaly terminal, so is that claimed separately in the main save, and if I hatch it in the expedition to check out the beastie, I'll get another one to hatch in the main save?

Killzone Helghast Cruiser Attempt [Ship Builds]

Not many photos to use as a reference, I'd argue the back looks more like it than the front but I was unable to find an aggressive enough triangular front end.

Less than 80-85 parts(never got the part limit warning when I built it.) Has three decks including the cockpit only deck but I'm pretty sure it'd look better if I built 4 decks.

I can't take it anymore, VR unplayable. [Bug]

I tried almost everything I could find on Google to make this game work on VR. The best I got was about 45 to 60fps on a 4070ti and 5950x. Even without VR, I dip below 50fps and max 130 in space. I'm really not sure wtf I'm doing wrong. This shit is so frustrating. Can anyone enlighten me please, I'm about to give up, but I don't want to since I finally want to fully immerse myself in the game due to the newest update. I bought the game in 2021, but just took it seriously now and it's too sad that I can't enjoy the game without stutters and huge frame dips. I've seen people with systems that are lower than mine getting more and stable fps than I do. Please, help.

The graphics settings for this game are making me go crazy. [Question]

So I started playing yesterday, and I immediately noticed how the game didn't feel smooth at all, despite having a pc with good specs that can normally run pretty demanding games with high graphics at way more than 60 fps. So I played around with the settings and after some time I thought I had figured it out, I was able to maintain a good amount of fps without any drops and with a really nice looking game.

Today I got back into the game and, without having changed a single setting, I was averaging 20 fps. I literally didn't change a single thing about the game or my pc, yet the settings that worked perfectly fine yesterday resulted in an unplayable game today.

So I took a break, closed the game and played something else. I then came back, and again without changing anything the fps were back above 60. At this point I had to try it: I closed the game and reopened it, and sure enough without any apparent reason the fps were averaging 20.

What the hell is causing this? I really want to play this game but these problems are making me lose all interest. Someone please help me.

Contest Entry: Vy’keen Velicor [Ship Build Contest]

My latest creation. The Vy’keen Velicor.

Inspiration here is drawn from modern American stealth fighters such as the F22 and F35. I wanted something that looked fast and dangerous, so a pointed nose and a sleek canopy were necessary which forced me to learn how to offset pieces to achieve those

2 decks - lower deck: access straight into mission planner and concealed cockpit - upper deck: pilot quarters, storage - aft lower holds: accessed from the back of the upper deck, a cargo hold on either side adds more storage space.

This one was an adventure. My first iteration was looking great after about an hour of work late at night and then when I went to save it for later, the game crashed and I was left having to start over entirely. I’m actually much happier with how this version turned out.

Can i hatch the Mecha Mouse egg in the anomaly? [Question]

NMS 1.03 Help nomansskyretro [Question]

Hello! I've been playing a lot of NMS. And I was an early adopter. I get the criticism of the OG but i honestly remember enjoying the emptiness. So I was looking to give it a go. Found https://nomansskyretro.com/ through here and downloaded everything ready to go today.

Unfotunately the site is down on the day i decide to give it a go so figured id see if anyone else on here has tried and if anyone has any ideas on how to get it running. It should just work, ive replaced DLLs and whatever but when loading the game i get the starmap loading screen, works fine, then goes to load with the fade to white and just crashes. Checked event log and nothing. There is a shader error that seems to be dumping a log:


ERROR----------------------------------------

ERROR: 0:1918: 'texture2DArray' : required extension not requested: Possible extensions include:

GL_EXT_texture_array

GL_EXT_gpu_shader4

ERROR: 0:1918: '' : missing #endif

ERROR: 0:1918: '' : compilation terminated

ERROR: 3 compilation errors. No code generated.

Anyone have any ideas on how that may be solved? Ive had a google and tried whatever i can find. Trying "-dx11" in the target etc but nothing seems to want to work.

Issues with UI [Discussion]

I wanted to post this as a comment to this other post mentioning the "so bad UI design", but I cannot add more than one attachment, so here I am.

Like some other players, I find the UI to be very irritating, and it's one of the reasons why I don't play this game more. The only reasons why I didn't give up after one hour was that (1) Nintendo doesn't refund games purchased in their online store and (2) since I couldn't get a refund I played a couple hours more and found some interesting concepts buried beneath what I find tedious material mining and inventory management and this UI. I wish I entered Creative mode sooner, and now I can partially avoid dealing with all that.

Here are 11 examples of things that irritated me, which I also sent to the developers, although I have low hopes that they will change these or get back to me. Please take these as my subjective critique points. I'd appreciate if we can have a polite discussion around them without using unnecessarily loaded words when our views differ. Menu buttons always contain a title with the button on the left and a description underneath. In this case, but also in many other cases, the title is already self-explaining and doesn't need a description. At the latest, the player will know what "(X) Quick transfer", "(A) Move and group" and "(R) Discard" mean after trying them out once. Having to scan all this text and learn to ignore the unimportant, redundant text is tiring. My personal suggestion would be to put the item description behind a "Info" button as well, because again the player will read it once and then ignore it.

How to get Corvette parts fast [Suggestion]

I found a very quick and efficient way to gather parts for the Corvette (using a Corvette):

Find a planet with salvage containers. Hover low over the ground (don't land). Leave pilot seat and step onto the bay ramp. Scan for salvage containers. Mark salvage container. Get back into pilot seat and fly to the target. Shoot from the air until you get the parts. If the salvage container is too deep underground for the ships weaponry you can just beam to the planet surface, no need to land. Rinse and repeat until exosuit and ship inventory are full. Profit.

question [Question]

Hello everyone, First of all, I apologize if my English isn't good.

I recently started playing NMS. I've played it for about 7 hours. I like exploring, but damn, I have no sense of direction.

I'd like to know if there's a way to find your way around a planet. I tend to get lost, forget where things are, and whether or not I've already searched an outpost.

I created the rescue beacon, but I use it to mark large trading sites, not to mark the small outposts I've already searched, otherwise I'd get even more lost.

Can anyone help me?

Reloading save rolled game back several hours [Question]

On Xbox sx. Reloaded a save and was rolled back to a point several hours earlier. Now both auto save and manual take me to this same point even though both say they were updated minutes ago. Any clue what may have caused this to happen or if there is any way to get my save back?
