Having trouble getting reunion [Question]

I have read online guides and previous posts and still struggling. I have visited featured bases, bases from the anomaly, and used a portal to travel to a base all with multiplayer on and off (I’m on pc). Does it matter what game mode I’m in (normal, creative, etc)? What else can I try? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Compelled to Give Thanks [Discussion]

I've never posted on this or any sub. As social gaming goes, I’m about as anti-social as it gets. I got back into serious gaming a few years ago after a long time away (kids, career, etc.). I knew nothing of NMS’s failed launch or successful reinvention. It was a finished and compelling game when I first jumped in, and I loved it. After completing the Atlas path and putting around 80hrs in, I knew NMS was a game I’d recommend to almost anyone. Little did I know it was only the beginning. Now, NMS is easily one of the greatest games I’ve ever played. For some reference, I’m an ‘80s child. My first “greatest game ever” was Ocarina of Time, and I’d played a ton of games by then. Since getting a One X a few years back, I’ve played a ton more and followed dozens of communities. The evolution of this game over its life span is like nothing I’ve ever seen, and I can easily say that the NMS community is the best I’ve encountered. There isn’t even a close second. Even an old hermit like me had to come out from under his rock to give a shout out.

All the admiration and thanks I can possibly muster for Sean Murray, Hello Games, and the remarkable universe of Travellers who’ve set NMS apart from its peers. It’s truly an accomplishment like no other!

P.S. Finding Paradise in Calypso is like finding a little pocket of Heaven in the pits of Hell. Well-worth the journey.

Fan-made governments [Discussion]

I’m sorry but i’m really sick of these fan mad governments, especially the Galactic Hub. A lot of the management are just rude, and the whole culture is really excluding to the average player. The elitism of these people ruins the free-spirited intention of the game. I’m all for fan built things, a good example is The Federation, but i’m sick and tired of the bullshit of the Galactic Hub. Their exclusivity, rude temperament, and attempted control over other players has to end. If you want to do something about it, check out r/NMSEntropyCorps

New to the game, Confused about Multiplayer. [Question]

Me and my friend recently bought the game to play it together and chill. We have run into a lot of confusion with multiplayer and we don't know if these are bugs or we just misunderstood some of the multiplayer features. I would really appreciate it if you can clarify these points: If my friend is already hosting a session, I can't host one of my own, I can only join theirs. warping disbands the group 80% of the time (manual or via teleporter). nexus missions treats progress seperately for each of us. what's the point of doing them together then ? I can't see the group tab in the teleporter menu (to teleport to my friend's base) 80% of the time. sometimes when I watch my friend build a base, they will see it being built correctly but I'll see it being build with lots of glitches (think connected corridors but with original walls in between, ect)

Edit: If it matters, I am on PS5 and he's on PC.

No Man's Sky: Is it worth it? [Question]

Yeah, yeah we all know the story: No Man's Sky was overhyped to hell and back, came out in 2016, went down in a ball of flames and was nothing more than a generic open-world survival game. People weren't pleased, and the game became a by-word for "disaster" in the Games industry.

Except.... ...It didn't.

Instead, Hello Games (the developers) listened to the negative feedback and did everything in their power to improve on it and bring it closer to its intended form. The result is a strong fan following, and a really strange, yet one-of-a-kind story about game comebacks.

So I'd like to ask: Is it worth £20.00 british pounds for No Man's Sky?

Just one floor tile... Help please. [Question]

Hi guys, I've been looking online and found some cool videos on glitch building but not on what I need, I hope someone here can help. I want to perfectly center one concrete floor tile on top of a 3x3 grid of cuboid frames. I usually use the frames to slightly elevate a prefab over terrain but wanted to try something different. I have pieced together other parts of various sizes to try getting the tile perfectly centered but no luck. I'm sure there's a combination of pieces to put together in a certain order but I can't seem to figure it out. I'm not OCD but this is killing me. Any pro tips out there? Thanks much.

Void Base [Discussion]

I realized the other night that you can actually fly pretty much as far as you want from a planet. Asteroids will also keep spawning. Therefore, I propose it should be possible to build a floating base via an asteroid out there in deep space, put a portal into it, and have a base which literally nobody can locate without warping there.

Game locked to 21FPS [Bug]

Hi everyone.

Im searching for help with this technical problem.

Im playing on PC with an RTX 2070 Super but my Game is always on 21 FPS. The weird thing about it is that it doesn't matter which resolution or graphic settings I use. Even with lower Resolution and lowest settings I'm still locked to 21 FPS.

I searched the internet for solutions but only found things that try to address stutters, not locked framerates.

I tried them anyways in hope that the same issue causes the 2 bugs, but with no luck.

After 5 hours of troubleshooting i gave up, made a ticket for the devs and then waited for updates to come out, hoping the bug will get fixed.

A few days after that, the new big update came out. I tried it again and again: No luck.

Today another 3.1GB Update came, I tried it again aaaand... No luck :/

I got no response to the ticket I created by now. And I know the devs probably will take weeks to answer.

But maybe someone of you fellow humans can help me faster.

Some infos about the Bug:

Game is locked to 20-21 FPS

GPU usage is never higher than 15%

I reinstalled the Game at least 3 times by now (meaning that I also deleted all game files after steam "uninstalled" it)

Im running Fullscreen (like many other solutions to stutters said that it can be a problem)

VSync is off

I hope someone has an idea..

Next Update Request: Options Overhaul [Suggestion]

I've been absolutely floored by the work put in by the NMS team on these free updates. It's been an amazing thing to watch this game evolve since day one, and they've addressed so many things that have made the game richer, better, and more engaging. Kudos to them as always!

I think it's time though that they include a more robust series of UI customization options as part of the next update. Some things I really wish I could control in the options:

  • Volume or frequency of the alerts voice (I am AWARE that my thermal protection is falling... I just stepped out of my ship).

  • Stop auto-pinning new recipes, I'm not going to build it right away, and if I do I can find the recipe very easily.

  • Allow me to have NO mission selected so there's nothing in the bottom right of the screen if I'm just exploring.

  • Remove recruitable NPCs unless I actually have a terminal for them, or make them stand out visually so I know to ignore them.

  • Allow me to designate spots in my inventories for specific materials: For example, if I use the last of a resource, keep that slot free so that when I pick up that resource again it goes straight to that spot. Just aesthetically more pleasing to me.

​

Anyone else think these would be helpful, or have other UI options they'd like?

Can’t hatch void egg [Discussion]

So I had my own void egg that I hadn’t hatched when I got given another random cracked void egg off a stranger that I completely forgot about because I put it in another ship that I don’t really use and I was using at the time.

So I hatched my void egg and forgot about the other one. I only found it again because I was clearing out my spare ships of loot because I was low on some resources.

So I found it and went through the portal to reach the planet where you hatch the egg hoping to get a second living ship but I realised when I arrive that I don’t have any quest for the egg so I don’t have any marker to go to hatch the egg.

Is it broken or am I forgetting something and being an idiot?

Survival - Need Help with Living Ship [Question]

Hey! Anyone willing to help a fellow traveler out? I need someone to help me with glitching my living ship so that I can increase the storage. The player needs to:

Join my party and arrive at the same space station. Summon their freighter and buy a ship at the space station. Exit the space station with their old ship and land on their freighter. That's about it, but needs to be on survival.

Can be done on any platform. As a reward, I can point you to two special space stations. One has a first wave spawn needle nose white and gold exotic, the other has a green squid. The squid is not a first wave spawn, but it's typically spawned fast.

New player, can someone help? [Question]

I just picked up the game and youtube/google doesn't really have many answers so I'm here now.

First of all, how do you find a space station? Is it just one per galaxy? And if so how do you locate where exactly it is? I read somewhere that apparently these space stations are now abandoned? If so how do you trade resources for credits? The tutorial doesn't even mention anything about space stations except that you can trade stuff on them.

And another thing. How do I research technologies to apply to my spaceship/exo suit/ multi tool?

Tired of Having to Repair Your Frigging Frigates? [Suggestion]

I long ago abandoned the tedious chore of dashing around a broken frigate to repair shit just because some lazy motherfucker in the crew couldn't be bothered to squirt some WD-40 into the machinery now and then. These days, I just repair them with the click of a button in a save editor.

However, since the last major update, it has been possible to turn a frigate into a Normandy using a save editor. Unfortunately, there is no way to land on one or go inside. But here's the upside: to date, not one of my Normandys has ever come back broken.

My guess is that they disabled breaking in Normandy because they didn't want to have to create a Normandy interior you could run around inside (or couldn't get/afford the rights to it). Changing the type to Normandy in the save editor preserves all the other ship's current properties.

you know.. just for the sake of visual variety... it's just kinda odd to walk into a space station or a base and only ever see boys and their names. I think it would feel more alive if there was a mix, then maybe we could also get rid of the situations when you enter a space station and see 2-3 completely identical NPC's both in shape and color, stand next to each other like newborn triplets.. at most I once saw 5 Gek's with the exact same faces and colors of both skin and clothing.. all stand next to and sit on a bench.. it just did not help with immersion..

How should I approach alleviating cpu bottleneck in vr mode? [Discussion]

My specs: * i7 9700k * rtx 3070 * 32g ram * Valve Index

I'm running the game with a mix of high/low settings following some recommendations I found (I'll link later if I can dig it up). I get some stuttering and fps can be all over the place, but like most vr'ers I've come to accept it's the price we pay for total immersion. Generally it all looks great and I'm happy to experience it, but I can't help but wonder what it might be like if I were able to push the settings higher (if only I could apply this same drive to exercise). According to fpsVR, my graphics card tends to bounce comfortably between green and orange, but my cpu seems to always be in the red. So I thought, ok, get new cpu to alleviate bottleneck. I ordered (kind of on impulse) an i5 11600k, thinking newer usually equals better/faster, but now that I'm looking around online I'm seeing the 9700k still being touted as the go to cpu for gaming (at that price point) even now 2 gens later (nobody even mentions 11th gen). So now I'm wondering what might be the best approach for tackling this bottleneck. I figure the options are :

Get that i5 11600k. Benchmark sites do show a little improvement over the 9700k, though will it actually make significant difference?

Upgrade to a i9 9900k. It's always been my understanding that i5s & i7s were the sweet spot for gaming, and that i9s were just extra cores for gamers that want to also be able to stream and such. But do they also offer significant gains in general over their i5/i7 brothers? Or perhaps the nature of vr (the fact that you're kinda calculating everything twice, once for each eye) is such that it benefits from the extra cores? Side pro: I also wouldn't need a new mobo.

I tumble down the overclocking rabbit hole. I've never tried it, and it makes me nervous, but if higher clocks are the only consideration, then it may be the...

Planet Biome Variety Discussion [Discussion]

I've been playing this game since launch and I love all of the different updates we've gotten so far. However, since exploration remains such an integral part of the game I've been disappointed that the terrain on basically every planet still remains the same. The mountain ranges they added not that long ago were a great addition. I know it's a huge technical ask as messing with the terrain would effect people's bases or terrain builds but I also feel like there's got to be a way around that like they did with mountain ranges and volcanoes. Seeing different biomes (flatland desert, thick jungles, tropical island chains, giant sinkholes, tundra lands, navigable rivers) would do wonders for the exploration aspect of this game and I wonder what the rest of the community thinks about this subject. Is it even necessary?

Can virtually every animal be tamed? [Question]

I have encountered a few interesting lifeforms in my 60 hour playthrough including gliding squid-like animal, beetle walking like a sea turtle, animal that pierces ground with tentacles and rolling spiky glowing orb thing. The only animal that could be tamed was the last one. After Prisms update dropped I expected to tame remaining ones but to no avail, sadly.

Prisms' patchnotes said "The range of creatures that can be adopted as your companion has been hugely increased to encompass virtually every lifeform you encounter", but it haven't changed anything for me. So what's wrong with that statement?

Before the Sentinel Walker comes, sit inside the tunnel and continue to aggro (but not kill) the Sentinels outside. When the Walker can't spawn (because you're inside) it'll continually drop the barrels filled with Nanites and Walker Brains. You can use the Galactic Trade Terminal inside to sell off any unwanted resources.

At first was stuck on freighter so built a base teleport module, went to my base summoned another ship and had the same problem. Full fuel but thrusters no working when pressing W. Checked with my other ships (there were a lot of crashed ships on my starter planet).

After much cursing, verifying integrity with Steam and checking I'm on the latest drivers and digging out an XBox controller to see if that worked, I thought to check If this happens in my other save. That saves only starship launches fine with W. Both saves are normal difficulty.

I've just gotten my freighter and am in the middle of that quest about controlling the fleet, sent it out on a mission and was waiting for it to return. The game said something to the effect of you dont have to wait around for it to return, so I tried to go and do other stuff.

Untapped potential [Discussion]

For all the amazing updates this game has gotten since launch, I booted up the vanilla version of the game on PS5 for the first time in a while, as I mainly play with mods. I can't help but feel HG's could be doing sooo much more with the planets themselves. I still land on a ice world and they're all colorless and bland. I land on a tropical planet and see very few different assets, with water still not looking up to scratch and it's either red, orange or blue. Why not give us more colors? All the other types are still lacking that interesting factor that would invite me to stay for more than 5 minutes. I feel HG's could still make such small changes that would enhance the exploration side of the experience so much more. Sorry if this sounds harsh but I just get a bit upset that they're still neglecting such simple elements when I jump back on.

What is this tentacle monster? [Question]

Ok so me and my friend were playing in a hub system, in other words a system populated with other players and their bases. We were alone, and suddenly my friend shouts that he sees this kind of tentacle monster near a player's base. It is absolutely massive, its tentacles move a bit and those tentacles have spikes at the end of them. This thing is very badly textured, it has invisible walls surrounding it, and it doesn't react to anything nor does it take damage from anything. Other players joined the system and came to see it, no one knows what it is. Does anyone have any idea?

Game not saving? fix I found today (for PC/Steam) [Information]

I wanted to come back to his game and check out the update. I quickly found out that no matter what I did, my main normal game save file, wasn't saving. I tried switching locations, ships, save points, dying, nothing worked and my old Dec 2020 timestamp save remained, rather than anything new. Oddly enough, I created a new game and that saved fine. When I switched back to my main game save, it wouldn't save still. I tried disabling Steam Cloud saves and searched online the past two days and tried multiple ideas previously shared on steam and via google searches. I also submitted a ticket with Hello Games but the response I got back wasn't very hopeful. ANYWAY...Here is what I did that fixed it: First I turned cloud saving back on within Steam - No Mans Sky preferences. Launched NMS and loaded up the UN-saveable game mode, attempted to auto save and manual save (no luck). Then exited the game Open up Windows file explorer and locate the folder where NMS holds all your game save data - for me it was Local Disk (C:) > Users>(My user name)>AppData>Roaming>HelloGames>NMS. I think you have to right click the folder and go to properties to view hidden folders, if you don't see APPData or Roaming (I forget which was not visible until it was toggled in that properties section). Copy that entire NMS folder and paste it somewhere else (I pasted the copy to my desktop to find later if needed, wasn't sure this would work so I didn't want to delete all my stuff) Now, I deleted the original folder NMS (that houses all the save info) I then Re-Launched NMS via Steam. Steam Cloud must have re-loaded my different game mode saves (all 4 were there) from the cloud (likely from step 1 and 2). When i loaded the game save I was having issues with, both my manual and auto saves actually saved, finally.

Looking back I think it might have been a "cache" issue. There was a file in my old...

An animal behavior update would be dope! [Suggestion]

First off, love the game! I recently realized it feels sorta like animals are just everywhere(which they are). I love the diversity I just think that it would be more immersive if grazing animals were found mostly in fields while maybe predators hide in the forest and stalk you if you walk by. It could even add a thriller aspect to exploration when traveling caves!

Found (maybe) a Correlation between: Atlas Stations--Traveler Gravesites [Information]

A strange occurrence today whilst completing the Atlas quest.

Almost every Atlas station I visited also had a Traveler at the Space Station. And of course: Travelers --> graves --> Portal Glyphs.

I think it was like 8 out of 10 Atlas systems had travelers.

Didnt matter the type of system. Didnt matter if I stopped at other systems and space stations in-between on my way to the next Atlas system, either. Or if I just warped immediately to the next Atlas station in a single warp.

Whenever or however I finally arrived at the next Atlas station system, there'd be a Traveler waiting for me at the space station.

Id like to ask a few ppl to check this out, if possible.

Because if its not just a freakish RNG messing with me-- this could be kindof a big deal.

Especially nowadays, since you can just buy everything else in the game now- Portal Glyphs have become the real goal, now, when starting a new game.

(Once you get all your glyphs, you're only minutes away from infinite $$, infinite nanites, any posted Ship, Exotic, MT, or Freighter you want, and so on.)

Is there any pirate lore anywhere in the game? [Discussion]

I've always wondered about them. Whether they're just disaffected Gek, Vy'keen, or Korvax with a looser conception of property rights than most of their fellows, or if there's some deeper backstory to be found somewhere. Two questions in particular that occur to me: Where and how did the pirates manage to obtain their technology, which no one else in this universe apart from the Sentinels seems to possess? (Namely, the technology that allows them to scan your ship and cargo from—it appears—someplace outside your current star system, yank you out of pulse drive, then warp directly to your location.) Where do they spend their time when they're not attacking freighters and/or you? Do they just switch the ol' engine-exhaust colorizer back over to green when they go off the clock and blend in with everybody else landing at the space station, or do they have deep-space hideouts somewhere that the rest of us can't visit?

(I realize I'm probably putting too much thought into what is ultimately just a gameplay mechanic that was created that way because it worked, but Hello Games are certainly not above writing lore that explains and rationalizes their game-design decisions, so I figured I'd ask.)

A few questions now that I've finally gotten to the anomaly! [Question]

So I've been enjoying the game quite a bit so far but I've finally arrived at the anomaly! It gives some mad... destiny vibes. Just the hope kind of style, I first saw it in Destiny. I like all the shops and stuff. But it's left me with a few questions.

Are quests adjustable depending on if you're soloing or playing with other people? I'm not really an online kind of person, I don't mind going into hubs and seeing people, dancing around them or whatever, but I don't really want to join a party with randoms or explore with them. I don't mind PVP games, but I don't like having to rely on other people during missions.

I did a little mission, get bone fragments or something and it took a really long time to get everything... probably because I was solo? Do I need to either suffer at it alone for long times or do I need to join others in missions?

What's important to do in the anomaly? Dailies and such? I've seen them mentioned but I don't know where to find them or what they are really.

What is the silver... chips? I saw some for a mission but as stated above, I don't like online with randoms and it warned me it was hard so I didn't try it alone. If missions aren't easier alone, and I have to team up that kind of stinks for someone who wants a solo ish game, I'm kind of locked out of content it seems? Maybe I'm not under standing it?

Is there no intergalactic trade terminal in the anomaly? I looked and couldn't really find one.

Ad lastly (for now), is the Anomaly basically just a multiplayer hub? Like if I wanna continue and not touch online, just avoid it as much as I can save for story reasons?

​

Thanks for the help, I love the game I really do, I just have a bit of social anxiety when it comes to online games and HATE talking online, so that's kind of why I prefer to avoid it.

Hi all, so quick question. When you come across a ruined ship on a planet and you select the menu option "claim ship" or "make ship mine" or something like that, that adds the ship to your fleet right? It doesn't make your old ship, which has a full cargo, and is in perfect working order disappear and replace it with the ruined ship right?

Camera Shake Toggle has become an absolute necessity [Discussion]

Apologies if this has been submitted before and extra apologies if this is already integrated, as I've yet to see the option in-game after the recent Prisms update.

I am one of the few players here who cannot play the game if the camera shake is not disabled - from an actual, literal standpoint, I am literally incapacitated by the game: my head starts to go blurry and dark, I become dizzy/nauseous, and obtain stomach pains.

I have installed different anti-camera shake mods over time, but these mods are continually getting broken after almost every NMS update. Then spending time searching for another one, bugging the mod devs, or waiting weeks until mod devs fix the mods - all of these are becoming unbearable, and I'm sure the mods aren't fans of the other side of the coin as well.

I understand we are a small group of people with whom this mechanic affects, but I am mind-boggled by the fact that the option does not yet exist in the game. Does anyone have any insight as to why this might be? Is it not a simple option to implement?

If any devs happen to come across this, I am pleading you for a permanent in-game solution for those of us who this affects. I love this game, but unfortunately, I have now found that I, personally myself, have to set the game aside permanently until something is integrated into the game (this is by no means a threat/boycott, I am just overwhelmed and don't have any more willpower to continue attempting making the game work for myself).

Blurry clouds in VR [Question]

I am absolutely in love with VR in No Man's Sky. It's pretty much the only way I play the game. I see people on this sub posting some breathtaking pictures of the clouds. I don't know why, but I just cannot get it to look as good in VR.

I don't know if it's just me, but it seems like the clouds in VR are locked on the lowest settings making them look like a blurry blob. It looks awful looking at the detailed surface of a planet and then the clouds look like...blobs. No matter how high I set the volumetric graphics settings the clouds still look the same even after a game restart.

I think it's either a bug, or HG couldn't get it to look right in VR and/or perform well.

because a really close to me person has a middle name beginning with "Y"

When i'm done with "Y" i will go to all Galaxies beginning with the letter "S" -

Portable Geobay [Suggestion]

I'm kind of surprised at the state of geobays after all these years, coming back as a player who played when they were first introduced.

I see you can build and dismantle geobays pretty easily.. which makes me think that this is an outdated / legacy mechanic. A QoL upgrade for this would just be to let players summon vehicles anywhere without having to build a geobay... go ahead and build one if you want to change your colours or whatever but make the summon independent.

If it is really necessary to craft them, then I really would like to see the geobays as portable equipment. You need the mats to craft it once but then it's just in your inventory and you can plop it down and pick it up. Getting the mats back each time and keeping track of them just seems redundant.

I dunno maybe I'm overthinking it, I know I know.. "cry me a river and build a bridge and get over it" lol

Old Expeditions for New Players? [Question]

I finally got a chance to catch up with NMS on ps5 and I've been loving it - the only catch has been the fomo from the first two expeditions.

Healthy alternatives to dropping millions of units on players in The Anomaly [Discussion]

Hi, Travelers!

I’m here with some alternative gifting ideas for late game galaxy-hoppers who enjoy sharing wealth with random players at The Anomaly.

While dropping tens of millions of units on newer players is gratifying for both parties, it runs the risk of being such a huge windfall that it sort of ruins the game for the recipient, and might cause them to lose interest in the game long-term. There has been some discussion on this subject here in the NMS sub, recently.

As an alternative, I’ve come up with a short list of items that can be handed out singly, or in very small numbers, in place of big-ticket trade and salvage goods. Some of these items actively encourage exploration, which helps keep new Travelers invested in the game, while giving them a nice boost.

Drop Pod Coordinate Data

Exosuit/Multi-tool/Starship/Freighter Expansion Unit

Salvaged Data

Stabilized Reality Glitch

X-Class Upgrade Module

Planetary Charts

Emergency Broadcast Receiver

Harvested Agricultural Substances

I’m sure there are other things along this line that should be added to the list. Please comment with any I might have missed!

I think I shot something that I wasn't supposed to shoot. [Question]

Hi. I started playing no man's sky about a week ago and have less than 20 hours in game so I don't know a lot of things. So I found a couple of anomaly detectors and decided to activate one for the first time and found something big and round with two big red lights on its sides( I don't know what it was). I didn't find any way to interact with it so I thought why not shoot it. I destroyed it and it gave me some nanites and suddenly I was told that hostile ships were approaching. I destroyed those ships and more showed up. Destroyed those and a freaking freighter (or maybe a frigate I'm not sure) showed up. So I summoned my own freighter to engage in fight (it was shooting but don't know if it was actually helping) and destroyed every cargo pod and defense systems on the hostile freighter (or frigate) but it kept spawning more ships. After destroying 50+ ships I got bored and came hear to ask you lovely people if any of you know what the heck I've done and how to get rid of those hostile ships.

So I know there are “types” of shops, explorers haulers etc, but do the specific looks of ships have names? [Question]

I just started NMS, and I pretty quickly found all the posts explaining how each system has a specific set number of set ships, and the ship types, etc.

What I’m more curious on is is there any list/guides on specific ships being sorted by look, not just type? Do those have a name? Most of the explorer ships in my current system all have the same body and engines with just different wings and the like, but I couldn’t find anything on what that specific explorer style is called, or any others

Idea for an update: The Adventure Update [Suggestion]

Hey, all! My wife and I have been glued to this game for the past few days now and we're loving it! After playing for a bit I felt there are some things that I'd love to suggest to really help engage me and friends who otherwise don't enjoy the game much.

Enter the Adventure Update This update is focused on two things: incentivize exploration on planets. Add more things to do with friends.

Features 1. Expanded Pirate influence in all solar systems, adding unique challenges and things to do. 2. Pirate Outposts: planet stations that hold rare loot but are heavily guarded by pirates. Explore these randomly generated outposts and snag some rare items. 3. Pirate Activity: beacons and abandoned buildings can sometimes be found by pirates first. Eliminate the threat before earning your prize. 4. Pirate Frigates: battle your way through guarded pirate frigates in Space and on foot by entering the frigates yourself and eliminating its captain. Your reward is the frigate and its loot. 5. Pirate Raids: pirate slaying can get you noticed, your base can sometimes be attacked by pirates where waves difficulty depend on how many pirates you've killed lately. Protect your valuables from being stolen from these scallywags. 6. Base Protection: we've added added multiple categories of craftable base turrets to make your bases harder to raid. 7. Large Monstrosities: encounter ancient creatures of large sizes on planets, these creatures have rare materials when slain, but be prepared for a tough fight without friends to back you up. 8. Modular Ship Building: the ship upgrade terminal now allows you to swap out parts of your ship. Find, craft, or scrap your way to rare parts specific to your ship type that give you a slight boost to your ships stats and changes its appearance. 9. Abandoned Unerground Structures: digging just got more profitable. You can sometimes find ancient mining...

Freighter with two warp drives? [Question]

So I was looking at my freighter trying to decide what to do with it as it's a crappy C class. I was looking to see what tech I got from the expedition that I'd lose when trading it for something better when I noticed something weird. It has two Freighter Hyperdrive mods. One was completely drained and the other only had a lil bit of resources missing. I recharged both and wrapped to see what would happen. Only one went down a lil. The other is still at max.

Is this normal? I can't remove either of them so I'm just using the second one as a 100% tank expansion mod since I can drain both before having to refuel either.

There should be an energy based melee upgrade for the multi tool. Idk what the fuel would be, but it should drain on a per second basis instead of a per hit/swing.

Questions questions questions - multiplayer/portal+glyph and more! Please help. [Question]

Hi all!

​

Few more questions from still novice player really as much as I hate to admit that!

​

So, got my buddy to re-download and play NMS with me, so that's great. We noticed that there are some moments of "randomness" while we play together. I'll give 2 examples:

​ Running together at the Space Station, different ships are starting and landing. We can see same ships in their looks, but turns out they can be different classes? I was seeing C when my friend was looking at A. Running on the same planet (my main with the base etc, which is Paradise Planet without any hazards or storms) and my friend encounters hot sand storms during the night?

What other cases like that are in NMS as it breaks the immersive little bit to be honest?

Next topic: portal and glyphs

​

I was able to get all 16 glyphs now and can use portals - first I want to do is grab me some lovely Dreadnought/Sentinel Capital Freighter. I saved a post from over a week a go of someone posting lovely freighter - I have punched in the glyphs and got thrown on a planet BUT:

​

  • Original post marks that the freighter is in Eissentam Galaxy

  • I'm going through the portal and I am still in Euclid? how does that work? How do I get to Eissentam Galaxy?

Suggestions on a workaround "Ghost in the machine" mission bugged [Question]

So.. the mission "ghost in the machine" has bugged. I never received the blueprint/construction terminal at any point, therefore to proceed past the "expand and staff your new home" part of the mission, is impossible..

I was thinking of deleting my base and re-basing a new planet BUT.. I still won't get/have the terminal so that's just completely wasteful.

As far as I know, since traveling through 2 black holes I still haven't had an option to reset the mission line altogether, however I'm still not 100% on that.

Any suggestions???

A new game isn't an option for me at this point, I'm way too involved with this chatacter and playthrough it would just throw me off the game altogether I think, besides the 60 hours spent and it already being my third playthrough..

An…inconvenient bug that kind of actually helped me out. [Bug]

So at my base, I’ve got a nearby cave that I built walls around and made it a designated mine for silicate powder to make my base building easier. Inside the cave, I’ve put up walls where my tunneling would break through to the surface and whatnot so it all remains underground.

Well I left my planet, did some resource gathering and whatnot, went back to my base…. And the entire cave has been filled back in. Which is a little annoying (it’s a MASSIVE cave I’ve mined for hours), but also just gave me a fuck ton more silicate powder I can just re-mine.

I know the terrain has been known to regenerate sometimes at random, this is just the biggest instance of it that I’ve seen to date. Anyone else deal with this sort of thing?

I beat Permadeath mode. Here is how YOU can too! [Spoiler]

Some personal tips and tricks and what I learned.

I'm totally new to this subreddit so I'm not biased. :) I'm also fairly new to No Mans Sky. I bought the game in December and thought "Meh, it seems like it'd be a good game. Why not try it out?" Boy oh boy what a great purchase. I didn't even know of its bad reputation before so, yeah, noob here.

This post has spoilers. So spoiler alert. This post assumes that the people know the basics of No Mans Sky and of the missions thereof. If you haven't finished the story line in normal mode you should start there. Many of you probably will know a lot if not all of what I say in this post.

Beating Permadeath is a lot easier than you think. If I can beat it, anyone can!

​

It took about 11 hours on and off. Very casual.

It was my first time trying and I didn't die.

​

-Hardest part is the beginning. Try your best to find caves going to and from your ship. Sodium plants glow at night. Caves are high priority; just watch out for toxic plants. (High radiation cave plants.)

-You don't need to make your base on the second planet. My second planet was a "paradise" planet but the animals were hostile and killing them made the sentinels angry so I went back to the first one.

On the second planet I came the closest to dying.

*If you think you are going to die, immediately press esc (PC) and click "reload autosave". Don't take any chances. I had to do this a couple times.

*Avoid high security planets. If you are forced on one via a mission, do an autosave with your ship before going to the planet.

-Teleport as often as you can.

-Some space stations sell Copper and/or Chromatic metal. Buy it!

$Try to get the medium refiner as quickly as possible. -Buy lots of Oxygen, 2 Chlorine; 2 Cobalt. Expand Chlorine for money and some ionized Cobalt. Convert Oxygen to Carbon and make...

No Man's Sky PS5: Constant Crashing [Bug]

So, this issue started way back when I still had my PS4. I can't remember when it started exactly, but all I remember is that the game was running fine when I first bought it, then after one update (maybe the Next update), there was a frame rate hiccup every 10 to 20 seconds, followed by a crash after 10 to 15 minutes of gameplay.

I left the game for a while, but then I got my PS5 and thought "Maybe the game will run better on PS5". Man, was I wrong. The problem persists to this day. Only thing different is the faster load time and better graphics/rendering. It's really sad considering that I really like this game, but the constant crashing makes the game virtually unplayable for me.

I don't know if that is related but I think it is worth mentioning another bug I've been dealing with. This one happened before the constant crashes, but perhaps it's related. Anyway, this one has to do with a soft-lock with the main story. I'm stuck in one of the main missions (I think it's called patterns in time). The game tells me to find a Vykeen cartographer and talk to them, but when I actually do, nothing happens. No dialog option or anything really. I can't progress past this point for some reason. I don't care much about fixing this bug since I'm only more concerned with exploring the universe and building bases, so it doesn't really matter that much.

If anyone knows how to fix this, I'll be very much obliged. Thanks

I discovered my own lesser mushroom beetle (5m) and wanted to modify its colors so in 48 hours I had the egg and was in the nexus modifying and reloading my save to test the best colors. On the third test, I just press the button to hatch my beetle pet (non-toxic mushroom dye) and my game lagged very hard and I thought it was about to crash (I’m on PS4), but it was because I was just handed five void eggs, I then hatched my pet and the colors were not the kind I was looking for. I noticed the void eggs in my inventory and due to having my living ship I handed them back. I then was about to reload my auto save to continue my tests when I noticed the time stamp changed from when I exited my ship I was worried that the save that was made when the items where teleported to me was after I hatched my egg therefore I hesitated before reloading it but before I could I was sent some items again 10 void eggs this time so the game saved and my testing was foiled. Then I teleported to my base got an infinite loading screen and wrote this while restarting the game. Only now do I remember that I have a backup manual save.

So me and a buddy of mine have been playing the last week or so, but we keep encountering a reoccurring issue when he tries to join my game.

He attempts to join me from the multiplayer screen but when he actually loads in, it’s an entirely different character? Its a brand new character with no items, like he just started for the first time again. Even though he only has one save… we cannot figure out what the issue is.

We both have a base on the same planet. When he joins back to his single player game, everything is fine and his base, character, and all of his items are just as they should be..

The only way we’ve found to fix this is for me to join him and then we have to go meet and stand next to each other for HIS game to connect everything when he actually tries to join my game.

Can anyone give me some insight on what exactly is happening and why? Is it possible this is because we warped around a bit when he first actually started? Like before he got his warp drive? He has his warp drive now and the issue is still happening. That’s the only thing I can really think of but I don’t even know at this point. Any help is appreciated!

Superheated storms... [Discussion]

... are actually one of the comfiest video gaming experiences I've ever lived.

Storm incoming, I run back to my shuttle as it worsens until I can barely see, my visor blurred as molten rain runs down the glass.

I make it to my starship, hop in just in time... And just... Tranquility. Everything is dying outside. But it's fine.

I'm safe.

My anomaly is broken?! [Bug]

Heres the issue:

My anomaly is completely empty. It's been empty for about an hour. Noone will load in.

Heres what I did to try to fix it:

I restarted my app (ps4 base) I turned off multiplayer and turned it back on, I turned off cross platform and turned it back on, I restarted my wifi router, I joined a friend and went to his anomoly, I warped to a new system, I teleported to a new galaxy, I also moved the anomoly within the system twice.

Heres more information:

I was in the anomoly about two hours ago and it was fine! My friends can go into the anomoly and see people (if their alone, if their with me they cant see anything either). I spend alot of my time in the anomoly gifting to people and duplicating items. My friends can see me in the anomoly, but noone else. I'm on the basic ps4, which had an update this morning for NMS, but it seems to be only affecting me.

Please help me, I need the anomoly lol

I started playin today for the first time for 10 hour's straight and have some Questions [Question]

After 10 hours of the Game I've got some Questions

When you follow a Emergency Signal and find a broken ship how can you find it again ? I've put a marker down but after traveling to my other base to get the resources to repair it to make mine the Marker was gone. That happened 2 separate times. And i had no where to know where it was. I was very sad because it was a A class ship with good slots. Is there no coordinates or any way for this ? Same with Factories and other Facilities.

I started with a friend of mine and we never get the same weather. He keep getting so many intense storm's which keep him from building and exploring while I had in my 10 hours with him only 3.

Are travelers on Space ships always this fast gone ? When a ship lands and the traveler gets out often they often stay like 30 Seconds and leave again not giving me any time to buy or check out their ship. Even when I'm talking with them and I'm in the middle of a trade it closes the window and they fly off. Very frustrating.

Otherwise i love the Game so far :) thank you for helping in advance

Frigates and Freighters feel very empty... [Suggestion]

Frigates, as well as your freighter should have more crew inside of it, not crew you can have conversations with (Because that would be a way to farm reputation and language), but instead just for decoration. I don't know, maybe they could walk around and doing chores with tablets like in space stations.

Because let's be realistic, it makes no sense that the whole crew of a freighter is just you, and three more aliens.

And with Frigates is worse, when you get inside of one, it looks like a ghost ship, there is absolutely NOBODY.

Question about NumHighThreads & NumLowThreads in TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS [Question]

All of the PC graphics tweaking/optimization suggestions I've found online more or less suggest messing with the number of NumHighThreads and NumLowThreads in TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS file (in the NMS install directory) based on the number of logical processors your CPU has.

What I noticed after experimenting with these numbers is that, no matter what I change them to (and of course, save), after running the game, it automatically changes it back to the default setting of "8" for both low and high. PC optimization guides don't mention this happening as the numbers they change the parameters to seems to save properly, so I was wondering if I'm:

A) alone on this occurring and

B) if not, why won't the values I set here stick? Am I doing something wrong?

The ongoing argument regarding duping and use of the Save Editor... [Discussion]

I've been watching this go on for literal years. And I'm still puzzled by something.

Sure, PC players can use the Save Editor in very naughty ways—I've seen that 'in the wild'. But the glory of the way the game is now is that you can block anyone you please if they're doing something in bad faith, or even something that's just annoying.

Same deal with duping. The only person they're potentially hurting is themselves. Sure, they can create stacks of whatever they please and hand them off or sell them. But those to whom the items are given can just delete them or give them away. And again, they don't have to ever play with that person again.

No Man's Sky is not and (hopefully!) never will be a competitive game. It's more like a journey. I look at people who are duping or using the Save Editor as having taken a shortcut. I have myself used the Save Editor to rebuild a lost legacy save. (Except... I couldn't remember all the crap I had in my inventory, so just left that alone.) I also used it to move a base computer to a less-stupid position, which obviously is only a cosmetic thing.

This game would be boring if you just gave yourself whatever you pleased. I mean... that's what Creative mode is, if you want to mess around like that. I personally don't see the point. But neither do I see the point in immediately pouncing on someone for mentioning that they dupe or save edit. Just maybe block them and go along your merry way. Jumping up and down won't make them change their sinful ways.

At the end of the day, everyone plays this game that they bought with their money, on their equipment, their way. If you don't like someone else's way, then just go find others that you do enjoy, or play single-player. I do the same thing when confronted with someone that wants to get into PVP when I don't feel like putting up with it. I don't see...

Low Quality Textures [Discussion]

Hi. I'm a fairly new player.

So is the low quality textures bug still a thing that can't be fixed? I see it's been a problem for years and I always experience this in my playthroughs when I travel to a new location via my starship, be it on-planet or off-planet, or when I edit my character appearance. The only workaround (not a fix because the issue keeps reoccurring) so far is reloading.

I've already tried deleting TKGAMESETTINGS.MXML and TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML as NMS Zendesk recommended but it didn't help. I'm playing on a GTX 1650 mobile with Nvidia GeForce Experience-optimized settings, btw. Turning graphics all the way up or down does not help at all. Disabling TextureStreamingVk in TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML as some others have tried does not help and of course destroys my framerate. Turns out it should always be enabled for GPUs with less than 8GB VRAM.

Any other advice would be appreciated.

Anyone else have any similar problems with this?

Basicly trying to even turn my head freezes everything or knocks me out of it entirely.

Yet another ‘this game is mind blowing’ post. [Information]

I have two save files, one with 110hrs, another with 45, I’ve completed both expeditions. In all my time playing, I’ve not come across a single alien or experimental multitool, and frankly, I love that. I know I could easily get one by following portal glyphs found online, but I don’t want the easy way, I want to earn it through exploration. When I do, it will be a brilliant moment that I’ll be way too excited about. In my 110hr play through I found one exotic ship about 6hrs in then never saw another one. In my 45hr play through I’ve found 4 exotics already. I love that it’s unpredictable, I love that I can’t pay a company real money to unlock something, I love that I will only find amazing planets, creatures, ships, multitools by taking time to explore. This game is fantastic and unique, and I may never get bored of it.

New ship suggestion [Suggestion]

After seeing posts on how ships should have walkable interiors go me thinking on how in a ship, it probably filled with all the crap that you generally haul around as well as various ship systems for like the hyperdrive, engines, weapons systems plus all the upgrades that could go on them, makes me think that there wouldn't be much room for walking and activities in it.

So i thought, why not just have a new ship type, a Corvette, something smaller then a frigate but larger then a starship, could have a crew of up to four people in it. Maybe revamp haulers into this new ship type and make em twice the size of a regular hauler, a downside to having such a large ship could be it takes two ship slots or if on a freighter it needs its own specialized hanger that needs to be built from rare and hard to manufacture items.

Slightly overwhelmed as a new/returning player [Question]

As the title suggests. Coming back to NMS now that I've got my Series X and I've not really played since release and a little of the first major content update.

I've put about 10 hours in so far and I'm really enjoying the experience, but I'm feeling somewhat overwhelmed because whilst I'm doing things, I'm not really "doing" anything. I've got 2 ships and my first freighter, I've been to the anomaly and I've been through a black hole, but I'm not really sure if there's a structure or an ideal early game progression system I should be following?

I've done a little bit of base building, I've done a little bit of the Artemis mission, but otherwise I've really just done some warps and the odd bit of exploring to see what I can find.

I guess, long story short, is there a new player guide or something that I should really be focusing on at this point? Or do I just warp until I find some planets that I really want to explore?

Is this something that only becomes available after community tier 3?

I did some searching on this and the only thing I was able to find was to turn off my VPN-save game-exit out of game-reload last save.

Merchant still only has cosmetics.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks 💜

What am I doing wrong with wiring? (Ceiling Light) [Question]

So I saw a pic via duckduckgo that showed wiring connected to walls will power the ceiling light, however it's not working for me. I have next to no building experience in this game, I originally thought they could only be powered using a prefab room.

I have the wires connected, but a few are red for some reason, they are connected to fully-charged batteries.

The "Map" or "universe" or whatever, please help? [Question]

I was told NMS has a really big "play area" that keeps getting created forever... so...

How do people "map out" where they are? Am I missing something im so confused.

I know, I am way behind on all my NMS knowledge, but please help me understand.

Like, when you make a new game, I know how to tell what planet I am on, then when I fly to space I am in that galaxy, then when I go to the space map that I can pick different galaxies that are different colors -- is that it, or is there another layer on top?

Any other VR players would like to control their ships/vehicles with their control stick? [Suggestion]

Don't get me wrong it's super cool to have that feeling of grabbing the throttle and stick of the ship, or the wheel of the exocraft, but I feel like its so imprecise (especially during dogfights). I would love the option to use the control stick on the VR controllers as if I was flying/driving with a regular controller.

While I'm on this subject I'd also like some parity between the VR and non-VR flight options. Pulling the stick down to pitch up in VR is called 'normal' in the control options, but in non-VR it's 'inverted' and for some reason they oppose one another when switching between VR and non-VR; meaning that while I'm playing with 'inverted' setting in non-VR mode and move the stick down to pitch up, in VR mode it would pitch down unless I change the setting each time I switch.

NMS is no longer reading my controller [Question]

I've played NMS on desktop (through Steam) with an XBox One controller since 2019. A few weeks ago, I turn on the game for Expedition #2 and the game won't react to my controller. I tried for hours to get it working again, but to no avail. I tried again for a few hours yesterday, constantly changing the Steam and NMS configurations, enabling Steam Input, etc. and no luck.

My computer itself has no problem detecting my controller, and I'm even using it as a mouse, but when I load the game, it acts like it doesn't exist. I've already missed Expedition #2 and haven't been able to enjoy Prisms!

Nobody is in the Anomaly... A Conspiracy Theory.

1- Actually, you can’t see anyone in the Anomaly but they all can see you. They’re laughing and doing that pointing emote while you wander around.

2- The Atlas is at it again. What a joker.

3- Sean spilled a Guinness on the server that he keeps under his desk. There was a bit of smoke then a clicking sound. Almost as bad as that time the office flooded.

The problem however, is that when you own 6 ships, you're forced to swap out a ship, and you lose the ship you swap out forever if you decide to leave it on the planet where the crashed ship was.

I was wondering if the expedition rewards and the quicksilver rewards are account bound? Like, let’s say I have a main save and I want the rewards… is there a point to doing the expedition if it doesn’t carry over?

Suggestion for base limit problem: base subscription [Suggestion]

Hey there, I'm Steve.

I was building a single support column for a base that I intended to build into a massive racecourse, but I have run into limitations with the build limit. I would like to propose that all bases under the current 3000 unit limit remain free, and a subscription model be offered for people who want to share larger, more complex bases; to compensate for the extra resources required to host that base on the NMS remote server.

This solution would allow for infinite scalability with data storage, allowing your users who are truly dedicated to community crafting to share their work. My intention is to bring the racing community in games like CS Source and GO (surfing community) and other communities here by providing the allure of a VR experience in racing. A 3000 unit limitation throws a wrench into this, it is not enough for even developing a staged training course without jumping through hoops to make it happen; let alone a more advanced, high speed course.

As an additional recommendation? I like the build system, but one thing it lacks is click-and-drag functionality for placing multiple connected segments in a line. Placing pillars or walls is tedious and it should not have to be; maybe something that extends in the orientation of whatever plane is placed? That would certainly make creating racetracks or long segments a lot faster.

What do you think?

Newbie advice [Question]

Fairly new to the game, right now I’m on the second galaxy (following the story). Question is: is better to continue doing all the story straight and then enjoy all the immersive freedom?

Help please. [Question]

I was wondering if someone could provide me with some information, relatively new player here, I sent my freighter out on an expedition on its own yesterday. Went to debrief commander and because of some flavour text a biological specimen run rampant on my ship causing its destruction.

Now, when I summon my freighter it still appears, but it no longer appears in the menu for placing ships on expeditions. I’ve done a little bit of research into freighters and frigates and am wondering if I encounter a freighter that needs rescuing will I be able to get another free one or will I have to pay out even though I currently do not have one?

Also, if anyone has any resources for acquiring high quality ships/freighters/multi-tools please point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance

Aggressive horrors [Question]

Has anyone else noticed how much more aggressive the horrors have become? More than once since Prisms came out I've had to actually run, where before I could just strafe around them. I've also been yeeted by them quite far and fast while attempting to run away via jet boots.

Ship scrapping exploit no more? [Discussion]

Did they finally patch that out with Prisms then?

Found a B-Class crashed fighter last night, 22m worth with a 6.2m scrap value. And like a dick, rather than just cash in my bounty after making it flyable, I thought "Wonder if that scrapping thing still works?". So of course, I trade it for another B to scrap (couple mill worth) and as I go back to reclaim the original ship to restart the cycle, I reach the edge of the upper deck of space station just in time to see the lil' Gek I traded it to dematerialise and fly off on it.

Lesson learned I guess. :)

How to enjoy playing this game in co-op? [Question]

To me, NMS has been an awesome single-player experience with little-to-no multiplayer value for about 120+ hours (I know, rookie numbers).

Recently, several of my friends bought the game as well and now they all want to play together all the time, and I am just not digging it. Outside of Derelicts and Nexus missions (which start to get repetitive after a few), it seems to me nothing in this game was meant to be done cooperatively:

Main mission objectives separate you in random directions by design; no way to share side missions outside of tagging location markers, which doesn't always work and only provides one person with rewards regardless; you can't even really share bases unless the person who owns it is online all the time.

I'd like to enjoy this game with my friends, but currently having them around is dragging my experience down. Sometimes we just meet up at somebody's base for 5 min and then all split to do our own thing because everyone has different missions in different parts of the galaxy. And I guess that's sorta fine? But it's not co-op.

So, yeah. Truly sincere question. Do you play this game with other people? What do you do together?

Can I have an exo vehicle without a base? [Question]

So, first of all, I want to be able to call an exovehicle every time I land on a planet to complete a mission or so (without having to build anything on it).

But to first summon an exovehicle, you need at least to create a base, and to call the exovehicle ANYWHERE you need the materializer tech. Everything is good.

The problem is that I don’t want to have a permanent base just to be able to spawn my exo vehicle in a galaxy far far away from that useless base.

So, can I create a base, summon the exocraft, and delete the base (including the exocraft summoner)? Will I be able to call the exocraft again with the materializer?

Agricult. research progress stuck at the end...? [Question]

So, to make it short: After handing in the Mordite I got the ending dialogue from the farmer but the mission remained in my log. Now I keep getting nagged with "return to the farmer" again and again, not that it would be a game-breaker but it's getting on my nerves. Any solution to this known? Thankies in advance.

Why do Scanner Upgrades not provide increased rewards for Minerals? [Question]

Just a small question, is there any reason why you can't get the same increases to Unit yields from scanning Minerals on planets, like you can with Flora or Fauna?

It kinda heavily disincentives scanning materials on any planets you don't plan to live on. Bit weird in a game where that sort of thing should've been promoted.

Potential fixes for common seemingly common issues. [Discussion]

For stuttering:

windows start button>settings>system>about>advanced system settings(at the right of the screen)>performance settings>advanced>adjust for best performance of: background services>apply and ok

It completely solved stuttering issue for me. Credits to Roverton (Steam discussions) for suggesting this solution.

For visual/texture glitches:

I used to have persistent texture glitches. Cleaning up some disk space solved it.

Also if you notice some flickering on black screen that briefly appears before the loading screen with stars, that means that tis session will have visual glitches. If that happens, quit game with Alt+F4 and try again.
