How do you feel about hovering? Sorry if this has been discussed before. [Discussion]

I think it would be nice to be able to hover at low altitudes on planets with sufficient atmosphere. Maybe just certain classes of ships, like a fighter wouldn’t be able to hover but a shuttle could be upgraded to allow for hovering. I could see how this might make things, like squashing waves of sentinels, super easy though.

What do you think? Are there practical reasons to not allow hovering? Is it unnecessary?

Thanks Travelers!

Nms has no logic or reasoning, therefore full ship customisation should be a thing in the game. [Discussion]

So the argument of ship customisation continues to debate.

But I feel anyone against the idea doesn't have a case. As everything in the game has no logic or reasoning for things to be in the game.

Let me explain...

Programable synthesisers, riding player owned creatures. You have no grounds to tell us that ship customisation shouldn't be a thing in the game. When all sorts of other nonsense is already the game.

Nms is and will never be a sensible grounded Sci fi game. It's all about having fun and having as many game mechanics as possible ( some debatable i know).

But ship customisation is a thing that will be coming to nms. It's been requested and so it will be happening.

If pets became a thing then so will ship customisation.

What's your favorite multi-tool weapon, and how much damage does it do? [Discussion]

I'd like to start a discussion about your favorite multi-tool weapon. Do you like the bolt caster? Scatter blaster? Grenade launcher? What is your favorite?

Further, how much damage does yours do? What improvement modules do you have installed and how much do they improve your weapon?

Two reasons for this discussion: 1, for folks like me (who are stuck on the bolt caster) to see if their weapons are doing the amount of damage they're supposed to, and 2, for folks like me to see what the possibilities are for other weapons!

Ready go!

Second Living Ship... Always Sucks? [Discussion]

When I got my first living ship, there was a while lot of variety to the ships I found between reloads, both in terms of shape and color. Now, on my second attempt, all I seem to find are the long nose ships in pastel colors or ships with missing arms. I've gone through dozens of systems, and probably 80 or so ships that I've rejected.

Has anyone else noticed this pattern? I was really hoping to find a snub-nose ship in a nice color to compliment my other one but maybe 1% of the ones I find are short nosed... And are all missing arms. Rng confirmation bias? What's happening

As much as I love the game, I must ask-- when will the "Ending" come? [Discussion/question]

If you've completed the main story, crafted Remembrence, and explored a lot, you've probably found the Rogue Data terminals, either on planets or in space stations, and learned about the "end," of No man's sky. If not, let me catch you up (MAJOR SPOILERS!):

The Rogue Data terminals describe the Atlas' creation through to its annihilation, going in this order: The Atlas is created, it asks its creator why it was created. The Atlas is overridden six times. The Atlas is replaced, and the creator leaves it, but not before giving it a copy of the creator's mind The Atlas dreams up every universe in No Man's Sky, but one day it begins to die. Fearing this, it creates the travellers, of which we are the last, and, most likely, the perfect imitation of the creator The final 16 minutes begin, in which the walls of existence begin to collapse, the travellers join one another arm n' arm, the Atlas' core systems fail, and, most importantly, A figure walks towards the Atlas, just as it is about to die, and------ FAILURE/NO DATA

Now, we are already in the final sixteen, as evidenced by the walls between universes breaking and the travellers joining one another, just as all travellers from all platforms can now walk alongside one another. What my question is is when do the Atlas' core systems begin to fail? when will the update come where the Atlas dies?

I personally believe that once Sean and the team have done all they wish to with No Man's Sky, the end will come, though I imagine that won't be for a while.

Getting a creature to slow down so I can feed it? [Question]

Just got the game the other day and I'm hooked. I just learned (or at least, just noticed that I'd learned) to make Creature Pellets, and I have my sights set on befriending a critter found around my base that reminds me of some kind of bioluminescent sea slug crossed with a hedgehog. The problem is, it's super fast, faster than I can keep up with while sprinting, and as a result I can't get close enough to feed it; I tried throwing a pellet, but the creature had already zoomed on by, and nothing else came to investigate. Is there something I can do to slow this thing down or hold it in place for a minute?

Silly question from a new player! [Question]

Hello everyone! Thank you for the great support in this community from my last post. I had a question about being able to meet other players. I’m at the point in the game where I just finished making the first hyperdrive and jumped to the next nearby planet. I wanted to know if there’s ever a point in the game where I’ll meet other random players flying around, or running around a planet I’m on? Will it happen when I’m done with the more β€œscripted” parts of the game? Or, is the universe of the game just so big that it’s unlikely I’ll ever run into anyone?

Thank you so much!

Loadout for starship trails/bobble heads [Question]

Since many of you probably know, you can boost your speed by combining all the starship trails and bobbleheads in your ships loadout.

My question now is, whats the best arrangement for them to get the most speed out of it?

Also, how do i get rid of the rainbow trail without removing it from my loadout? It doesnt matter when i install it, may it be first, last or somewhere in the middle, i always get the rainbow trail, wich looks absolutely atrocious on my mean and dark looking fighter and doesnt fir at all.

Thanks for any input!

This community is so good, but I can't understand its opposition to a better and more refined combat update [Discussion]

I've seen so many times people just daydreaming or suggesting a few ideas for better combat, and almost everyone in the comments is just "no". Then they proceed to tell them to play on permadeath, or not install any shields etc etc.

Sorry but this is outrageous. The solution to a bad portion of the game is not to handicap yourself by not using in-game stuff to create an artificial sense of danger to the combat.

Everyone will be benefited from a more refined combat mechanic. More fluid controls, a better feel of the weapons shooting, the ability to aim down sights, and maybe some aim assist for us console players who struggle with the current mechanics.

I can't understand how such a nice community with so many hopes and dreams for an evolving game that gets better and better with each update, has such a sour opinion over an overhaul of the shooting system. Let's face it, the shooting in this game is really bad. I don't expect it to be CoD or Destiny, but for Atla's sake, why do you all want it to remain as bad as it is now?

For some reason, many of the negative people in the comments thing that making the combat more aggressive and dangerous will hamper their exploration experience, but that's not the case.

Is it normal to lose star systems from your visited list? [Question]

Recently I have been cataloguing the systems I have personally visited, and I’ve noticed huge gaps in my list.

For example, I have only five systems in the Hilbert dimension, the furthest of which is only ~150,000 LY out and the closest of which is only ~145,000 LY. Yet I had to land in Hilbert somewhere out in the 700k LY range, and I had to transition to Hyades in the ~3k range.

Speaking of Hyades, my list of visited systems no longer contains my landing point in Hyades!

Even systems where I have bases have dropped off the list entirely. I’m still able to access those systems through my bases in that system.

Is this normal?

PS5 textures seem to load more slowly the longer I play the game? [Discussion]

Not longer as in a single session, just total hours in a save. Loading or reloading a game can take textures of my character, NPCs around, and the environment about 5 seconds to pop in now, which is way worse than it was at the very start of playing NMS on PS5. Closing out, rebooting the PS5, nothing appears to improve this.

Has anybody else experienced this?

Portal Base Etiquette [Discussion]

By simply mashing the first glyph repeatedly at a portal, you can teleport near the center of any galaxy.

The first time I did this, the world was harsh with aggressive sentinels. I built a base to shelter incoming players, especially newbies, who might be coming through the portal and not expect the hazards. It's got a save point, convenient hazard protection and life support rechargers, a gate, and a landing pad to save a bit of launch fuel. It was a little awkward placing it so the entrance was close to where players land with all the communications stations in the way.

Today I went through another, in a different galaxy. This world isn't as harsh, and while I was considering placement of another hospitality shelter around all the communications stations, it suddenly occurred to me -

If I build a base, other players won't be able to drop communications stations anymore.

Should I not build hospitality shelters at portals where it is popular to leave communications stations? Or does the utility of a shelter outweigh this tradition? Should I only do this on very hostile worlds, perhaps? Or are the communications stations considered a nuisance and a base that prevents them would be welcome?

More Depth for Pets Suggestion [Suggestion]

So there are a few items in game that would go along great with pets already, and have very little use in game on their own.

Bone fragments and artifacts.

I think it would be super cool, instead of using the Gene Sequencer with just a bunch of stuff from your inventory, to have to refine organic materials (bone fragments and certain organic artifacts). During the process of burning down the organic materials you could extract specific gene codes, and load those into the gene sequencer.

I'm not sure if I'm just doing it wrong, but bone fragments and artifacts go into my super secret storage bin and never receive use. And I know you can trade certain things at archives, but I don't know why you would do this in the first place. Doing a system with these items that allows manipulating future generations of pets would add a really high value to the items that are otherwise just hanging out in your inventory.

The 'gene code items' code be classed like tech upgrades are, and when refining things like bone fragments, higher value fragments could result in a higher likelihood of getting higher quality genetic code. Then you could essentially go on a quest to find a Bone Fragment dense planet and get good materials for strengthening the next generation of good bois.

It's just a thought. Don't really expect something like that to be implemented since there is already a working system in place. But I think it'd be awesome.

No wonder every freighter owner wants to sell you their ship [Meta]

Freighter fleets are worse than having pets or kids.

Unless you are just using your freighter as a god-awful expensive floating garage, your fleet needs constant attention. They always need fuel for frigates. They're always asking for permission to go out. Every other fleet in the galaxy has strays giving you the doe-eyes asking for you to adopt them. And they're always coming home with random shit you don't want.

The other day, I was out mining asteroids for tritium. AYFKM? I have A- and S- class upgrades for my pulse engine. I haven't had to actively mine tritium in I don't know how long. I get enough incidentally just from shooting asteroids that are in my way. But frigate fuel requires it 1:1 with di-hydrogen, and if the local system isn't selling it then you gotta go gather it the old-fashioned way.

Freighter fleets are always warping into the middle of asteroid fields. They are surrounded by tritium, there are whole crews in each of my fleet's ships, but I'm the one who has to go get it.

Freighters these days, geeze. They just have no respect.

Base building question [Question]

I want to get into base building beyond the (smallish number) of pieces/modules. Going to try to learn glitch building. Question is:

does a mod that unlocks only build parts that are in the game normally (like stuff on stations, alien structures, etc) worth it? Not added/created other/outside game parts.

If I upload a base like that, will interloper/guests see those parts? Will they save? Do they make the game/saves struggle or corrupt?

Thanks.

Extreem spam in weekend mission [Question]

Why is it that ppl places all those message pods in weekend missions/planets. I understand ppl like to say hi but its making it realy hard to see mision critical markers. Last weekend was just very bad, my whole compas was like 1 line of meaaages symbols and it was getting near imposible to navigate and find the burried bones.

Ironicly a guy placed a message pod at the last part where you turn in the bones to an NPC saying : "please dont spam the objective spot" or aomething like that. He was right because in an area of abouth 200u there where around 20 message pods. Yet by trying to warn ppl not to do it he just added to the problem.

Hello games realy need to redesign this system. Mayby by only showing an icon when you'r close to it and only able to place 1 within a certain distance. Mayby change it to terminals where multiple ppl can post a text into it. Would be handy to have in your base so ppl can post you a text.

Anyway please dont spam message pods or base computers. Its fine if you want to build a base on an planet but this stuff is ruining the game. Same on the void egg planet.

NMS using 20-50% of my GPU, then dropping to 0% [Question]

Hi again, sorry to be making another post but I thought it's the best way to update this.

​

It seems that the main issue here is whenever I see a stutter my GPU usage drops to 0% for... Some reason. Not too sure what causes this but if anyone has any ideas that would be a great help! According to the in game graphics settings NMS is indeed using my 1080. And AFAIK I don't have any on board stuff it can switch to.

Found one of the Legendary Birds while ship scrapping. [Screenshot]

Went into a local T3 system near to where my starter planet was to do some ship scrapping while also finding potential Fighter ships to buy and use, wasn't expecting to encounter Zapdos during my travels.

Ended up seeing 3 more land and scrapped all 3 for the juicy S modules, didn't take long before I got my one fully decked out without even needing to purchase Nanites on the Modules myself.

This is in the Euclid Galaxy, Glyphs are on the 2nd image (If the 2nd image doesn't show when I post I'll edit with an Imgur link with the glyphs) with another angle viewing the ship, it even has the 7 Decal but makes it look like a Z which I thought was perfect.

It's not a first wave Exotic but it definitely didn't take long for it to appear for me, didn't count the waves but I was only scrapping for about 5-10mins before it showed up, heavy traffic in and out of the station too.

I have built a curious deposit farm.

This time I decided to use a glitch built short range teleporters (SRT). In my case, I only have 2 SRT they have more than 750u distance between them.

When I travel between them, curious deposits not respawning. However if I use base teleporter (big circular one) or I travel more than 500u, it works perfectly.

What do you think the problem is?

Playing on a 240 FPS monitor, can't get the framerate to go past 100 or so. Is it even possible? [Question]

So i got to try a 1080p 240 FPS monitor, and nothing i do seem to have much of an effect on framerate.

More precisely, i've been trying all the settings between lowest and ultra, turning vsync on and off and triple buffered, and the FPS as reported by Steam overlay remains floating between 90 and 110 standing on a random place on a planet.

If i look at the sky or straight down it does go to 160-180, so it's not like it's locked or limited.

I got an RX 6900 XT, which i guess should be able to handle it at least at the lowest settings. The CPU is hovering at around 20%, so no bottlenecks there.

Am i missing some setting somewhere?

Exotics are Rare? [Fan Story]

As implied in the title. I've had No Man's Sky for a while, got seriously into it the past two weeks, and over the course of the last four days, had something of an obscene run of luck.

​

Exotic Number One, creatively named "V-Wing"

Got this boi four days ago, in a system that I don't remember. Had enough money to get him, an open ship slot, thought "why not" and started my exotic collection. One of two S-ranked ships I'd ever seen spawn naturally, and the only Exotic.

Now, cut to about twelve hours ago. I'd had a nice little B-class Sentinel family freighter, a Sentinel Tier 2 if I'm not mistaken. But, I'd built up enough money and decided now was the time to go hunting for my forever home: An S-Class Resurgent Star Destroyer. I loaded up my reddit guide, found an appropriate system, and got ready for what I thought for sure was going to be an hour long slog.

Got it on my first try.

Our house, in the middle of the fleet

No, he didn't come colored like that. That's my addition. But yes, I got this ship on my first try in a wealthy Korvax system that shall remain nameless so my friends don't yoink my ship. Get your own.

And guess what landed in the bay about five minutes after I'd taken ownership?

​

Exotic el numero dos, named B-Wing

Yeah, so despite looking less like a B-Wing than the first one did a V-Wing, I named it that for continuity purposes and apparently I have a theme here.

So, proceeding my double knockout with the Exotic and the Resurgent, I jumped over to a friend of mine to...

Awakenings quest, game crashing. [Question]

Hey guys. I am at this part of the game - quest Awakenings, where I just used warp for the first time and it gave me location for another fuel source.

I landed on the planet, where the fuel source should be, walk for a few seconds and the game crashes.

I tried many things - fly away, then come back, land on another part of the planet, stand there for a few minutes and go, but every time I get closer to the signal - the game crashes.

I decided to reload my older manual save so I can get to that point of the game again. The result? I landed on the planet, walked like 10 meters in the direction of the signal and the game crashed.

I am desperate. I had zero crashes before. Any tips? XSX/game is up to date. Thanks.

Night Mode [Suggestion]

I think we all have so many conflicting thoughts about what would change things up or improve things with the game, but I think we can all get behind this. I often play at night before bed, and that amazingly brilliant God blast that accompanying every warp jump leaves me feeling a totodile getting flashed by dunsparce in dark cave. I cringe when I hear the high-pitched whine of a gravatino ball showing off its birthday suit.

How (well) does multiplayer work? [Question]

Hey everyone!

So, after buying the game at launch, life got in the way and i haven't really been able to come properly back to it. However, a couple friends and I are thinking of starting a new game, and NMS seems to tick a lot of boxes.

Now, a LOT has changed since i was last on, and I've tried to read up on it and keep up to date but i've still got a few remaining questions regarding how some of the multiplayer aspects work. So PC sessions are limited to 32 players, but is it still only 4 people per party? and so, does this mean that while i can 8 friends all in the same 'server', i can only really interact with 3 of them? The remaining 5 friends have to do their own stuff, and can't really 'play' with us. How then, does base sharing work. If i start building a base, and everyone else helps out, when i log off does the base disappear completely? If i upload it (which i've read is a thing?) are my friends able to carry on building the base if i'm not around to help out? Essentially, how similar does it function to a private minecraft server etc. Last, and i suppose most importantly, how fun is the multiplayer experience? Seems like it's as fun as you make it, but have people had a generally good experience with it? or is it buggy as hell.

I hope that all makes sense

Glitched Black Freighters [Question]

I lucked out and got a yellow Sentinel Dreadnought like I wanted, but later I realized that the ugly bright yellow hangar with aquamarine trim did not change when I painted the rest of my ship (I wanted yellow/gold and black). This drives me crazy and I no longer want anything to do with that hideously trimmed freighter. So I set off to find a new Sentinel Dreadnought with more pleasing default colors. However, it seems that 3 out of 4 of them spawn in black, with glitchy green spots, and none of these can be repainted because the black color is actually a missing color.

Anyone else notice an increased frequency of these black freighters? It's really wearing me down and has made me consider going back to a smaller blade-style freighter.

Can't build my starter base. [Bug]

hi, I'm like an hour into my save where it tells me to go and make my base. I built my base computer, I got all the materials you're supposed to need, but it doesnt give me the option to build "structures" in my build menu. it's really annoying, and I've wasted like 5 hours trying to figure it out. figured I'd ask reddit before just giving up on my save.

How do diminishing returns work for extractors? [Question]

I'm trying to make the most efficient act Indium mine I can I noticed that if you hook all the extractors up to one big network they all extract at an excruciating slow rate as compared to just one extractor hooked up to one supply depot.l, I checked. So I started redoing my design to have a bunch of mini networks that are adjacent from one another, but I noticed the same thing was happening. If I destroyed one extractor, the amount mined per hour went up for all the extractors in another network. So just wondering how to best get around this?

My suggested Improvements to building in NMS. [Suggestion]

As a player who found the base building on this game to be very good, after lots of big bases, I found the following would be a welcome addition/improvement. Wall pieces should be next to the floor pieces. Half-size stairs and vertical pieces. Instant top down camera shortcut. A window pane with no edges. Objects from decoration should have snap to base structure. A select-all in view, to a copy clipboard type idea.

Small bugs/annoyances Weather affects taller buildings, even when closed. Gaps in some roof pieces letting slits of light in. Ambient light through windows is not bright enough. Some base pieces need to fixed in a certain order to work or turn green eg. Stairs then floor.

Great game though, will continue to build regardless as it's very satisfying.

Weirdest thing just happened… [Bug]

Was using oxygen plus silver to make paraffinium. Worked great, except… first the paraffinium, then also the silver and oxygen in the medium refiner faded away. Just… gone. Not anywhere in any of the storage units, the freighter (which is where this happened), personal, starship, or exocraft. Just… disappeared.

Substantial, too - about 8700 silver, slightly less oxygen, about 400 paraffinium.

Never have had this happen in the roughly 1500 hours I’ve played this game.

Bizarre. None of it is irreplaceable - my frigates bring in enough stuff that I should be able to replace a good bit of the silver, and I still have 4 more stacks of O2 - but it was really strange.

Happened twice in a row (second one had the larger amounts), so I deleted that refiner, figuring maybe there was a placement issue. But still… very puzzled by that one.πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”

Save File Crashing Except in Multiplayer [Bug]

Hi! So, I’m having a tough time with this one. I landed on a planet, jumped out of my ship, and my game crashed. I rebooted the game, loaded, and crashed. Restarted console (PS5) then loaded and crashed. All of this is before I can even see my character. So, I tried jumping on my two other files. No problems. Then I joined on friend with my bugged save file, and it was fine. But multiplayer doesn’t let you save your position. So, when I join on someone, I’m good. But when I go to load in single player, it crashes. The planet I landed on must be bugged or something. But how do I create a save that doesn’t load me there? I tried joining my friend, leaving group, and disabling multiplayer. Unfortunately, it still doesn’t save your position. Any ideas? Thanks for reading and helping.

Can you complete the main story of the game on a converted expedition save file? [Question]

After the second expedition was completed, the game suggested me that I convert this save file into a normal one, and so I did. My question is, can I progress the main story here? I guess so, because I got the primary mission "Alone Amidst the Stars", but it somehow doesn't work, as it gives me no instructions about what I have to do next. It only says I should follow the instructions of the "The Space Anomaly" primary mission. But this primary mission does the same thing and says I should follow the other one. In conclusion, both missions don't give me any instructions, so I'm kind of stuck. Any help?

Also, I checked everything in the space anomaly, and both Nada and Polo don't give me any new dialog.

Hey! I just bought no man's sky for the ps4. I wasn't planning on ever playing this game after how disappointed I was back when it first released (I torrented it that night, don't judge me I was like 13).

It's arriving to me tomorrow and I'm super excited to try it again considering all the cool updates I've seen videos about.

I'd like to ask you guys for some help before I jump in tho. My main worry is how complicated the game looks. Will I have to google things very often? Is it as complicated as it looks or is it self explanatory enough for me to understand how things work? How do I start off?

I have the PS4 disc version (had pre-ordered it) and been playing intermittently on my PS4 since launch. Now that I'm getting a PS5 I would would like to do a more deliberate play of NMS. According to the PS Blog, the PS5 version is a free upgrade for existing players. This would make sense to me, if I was using a digital version, but I have a PS4 disc version.

Returning ps4 player. [Question]

Loving the new content. Bought the game a year or two ago and didn't get too far as I was playing solo.

Buddy just picked it up the other day and we're having a blast.

Problem is I seem to be crashing alot and there are times that buildings will take up to a full minute to load in.

I remember having these issues before but not quite as bad.

I landed at a trading post today and got out of the ship but there was no building, just ppl floating around in the seating area and it honestly took at least a minute to pop in. I got in and out of my ship a couple of times, walked around the ship once then it all started popping in slowly.

Is this a common problem as of recently or is there something I can do on my end to alleviate the problem?

"A Call to Arms!" A handfull of ideas for the Minotaur exo-mech. [Suggestion]

Now I know this isn't a game breaking issue or anything, but the fact the mech suit has arms that don't do ANYTHING just gets my tits in a twist. Hello Games have done so well to lift this game up to awesome levels (Plz don't think I'm ungrateful!), It's just that it seems like such a missed opportunity. It would be really cool to lift and carry cargo or materials like the power loader in Aliens, as well as punching on with big burly, gorilla/bear type alien species and...well, we have the ability to race the other vehicles, right? So wouldn't it be awesome to also have a.... Minotaur Sumo Wrestling League?! Huh?!! How friggin' awesome would that be!!! Maybe reduce the jump pack's power a lil bit and let it climb up cliffs? Or leave the jump packs as is and just be able to latch on to a vertical surface once you've boosted up? No? Ok, how's a Thunderdome type arena with weapons placed around it sound? With big ass hammers, flails, telegraph pole sized quarterstaffs (-staves?)... Even chainsaw halberds? Stuff like harpoons and chain/net launchers to replace the laser cannon while in the arena? Hell, ditch the shoulder rig altogether, then alongside the melee stuff you could load up the Minotaur suits with mech-sized vulcan cannons, rocket launchers, oversize sniper rifles etc that they carry like rifles. Then take the next logical step and go out hunting alien BIG GAME as a squad! Or Squads vs Squads perhaps? Upgraded sentinel walker packs? IDK, it just seems like a biggly missed opportunity.

Synopsis After My Second Playthrough [Discussion]

While you may spend 150+ hours going through the main story arcs and searching ALL the haystacks for the shiniest needles... There's nothing to do with all the cool stuff you've built and purchased! This game, while infinitely more polished and layered than it was back in the day, is still a massive analogy to consumerism - find and horde cool stuff. But in the end, you find yourself sitting on your couch starting at the TV wondering what to do with yourself. 99% of the game is preparing yourself for... Nothing

The game lacks "game systems", to put it bluntly. Your choices don't mean anything, dialogue doesn't mean anything, and the AI is shallow, and everything is just a pretty wrapper around income generation. I had high hopes for the derelict freighter missions but they're basically just floating loot boxes with minimal challenge. It feels awesome to own a massive freighter fleet but all you can do is send them on meaningless missions to scrounge up resources you don't actually need.

I have to say, while the late game itself may not offer anything aside from discovering slight variations in Mr. Potato-Head aliens and new planetary scenery to screenshot... This Reddit community is awesome, and the potential for "meta" is pretty solid. I'm having fun roaming around taking cool in-game screenshots to post on Instagram and finding cool ships for other players.

Thoughts? I played the game when it launched, then played again a couple years ago... Always end up with the same conclusion. It's a very "accessible", simple, loot-grind game that kind of leaves you empty-handed at the end. With all the work we put into finding these amazing ships, freighters, tools, etc. I feel like there's SO much opportunity to put all that to good use... But Hello Games continues to staple on pretty basic and fluffy ways to continue amassing more stuff with relatively little effort.

Relatively new to the game, I came across a lot of questions, some of them I still don't find any answers, I hope you'll be able to help me :

1/ When you want to TP to a base, can you know on which planet the base is from there ?

2/ When on a planet, can you know on which planet you are and which system ?

3/ Is there any faster way to find a ressource than going to space, going to the galaxy map, find the planet, go to the space station/nearest TP and then TP to the space station of that system ?

4/ Can you find anything to access the galaxy map on your base ?

Basically I have trouble to know where I m going with the TP. I came with a name* for all planet to have at least a bit of informations, but I can't put the deposits/plants you can find there.

Does any one have a few tips about anything I said above ?

*Name goes A-B-C-D-E

A is the first letter of the kind of planet (F for forest, V for volcano, etc...)B is for the hazards (NH for No Hazard, HH for Hazard Heat, EHH for Extrem Hazard Heat, etc...)C is a note from 0 to 10 on my liking of the planetD is the kind of base it is (Installation, Outpost, only TP ?)E is any complementary informationExemple : F-NH-10-TP-Stargate

Its 2021 And you still can't fully destroy Sentinel Dreadnoughts [Discussion]

Seriously. I spent more than half an hour trying to figure out how the hell this thing was supposed to go down. If it doesn't have a way to be fully destroyed or at the least, crippled of its fighter deploying capacity, it should read in bright bold letters "I CANT DIE, SO MAYBE DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME TRYING TO KILL ME AND JUST RUN AWAY".

Like, how hard is it to code in a Shield battery, a fighter manufactory and an exposed core, slap HP bars onto all of them and make it so that you can actually meaningfully destroy the dreadnaught and reap the rewards. Actually make your final opposition killable as opposed to making the player lamely sit around getting their ship blown apart for thinking they could try do to anything otherwise.

PVP is a hidden option and defaults to on?! [Discussion]

I've got about 20 hours into the game and was enjoying it. I figured I'd check out a "community highlight" (the boombox). I almost immediately got killed, over and over, usually before the game even loaded, causing it to crash.

When the player (something veritas?) finally moved on, my personal and starship inventory was empty even after recovering my grave. My last manual save is hours old, the autosave always seemed fine to me.

I didn't even know this game had pvp, much less that it is on by default, and hidden away under "network" settings?

What a terrible decision, I wonder how many players this has cost the game. I haven't uninstalled it yet, but I'm not sure I'm going to bother investing more of my time into recouping everything I lost.

I'm about to begin the search for my first living ship! [Screenshot]

I'm about 60 hours into the game and almost finished the story line and today I was teaching my girlfriend how to buy blueprints from the Space Anomaly and when I was about to leave someone was sitting on my ship so I greeted him and exchanged some gestures and then I received a 'Void Egg' and some Nip Nip Buds from them (I didn't know what those things were until I searched on Google a few minutes later) and I gave them some S-Class exosuit upgrades because I thought it was a nice gesture from them to give me whatever they give me. So, now I'm going to look for my ship!

Thanks, total stranger that I don't remember your name! <3 (I just remember it had several underscores and something like "vas").

[Serious/Spoilers] did the end of the game give you any philosophical insight? Did it make you wonder what you are? [Spoiler]

I recently finished the atlas questline, and of course it got very "reality-altering" in the end. I have a lot going on at home right now so maybe it had me produce more existential thoughts than I should have, but I feel an odd connection to the message of the game and a book I recently acquired - Out of your mind by Alan Watts. I am only on the third chapter but in this chapter the idea that we are all God and the universe is brought up. "naturally, as you begin this adventure of dreams, you'd fulfill all your wishes -- you could enjoy every kind of pleasure imaginable. After a hundred years of this type of total pleasure, you might think," that was pretty great, but now how about I have a surprise - let's have a dream that's not under my total control". Eventually you'd end up in a dream exactly like the life you are leading right now."

And that's the idea of God, that you're god dreaming that you're not. When I was finishing the questline up, the way the atlas spoke felt similar to this. That I, the traveler am one with the atlas, I am the atlas. I created the universe around me and I created myself as a traveler to experience the beauty of my creation.

This is the dramatic myth. Which fits perfectly to the game, as it's all one big dramatic experience. We all know it wasn't real, really - it's just a game after all, right? But then I thought, even when I'm not playing the game, another person still is, and even if nobody were, that entire universe still exists somewhere, my base still exists on the planet I chose to build it on and the wildlife surrounding it are still wandering, grazing, imitating some form of a life, even if my copy of the game isn't observing it, or anybody else's.

The book also talks about the problems of life and death, and that if you ever wondered what it would...

Second Galaxy Reset [Question]

Having been away from the game for a few months, I'd like to get back in but with a new galaxy. I reset the galaxy previously at the end of The Purge quest so I was wondering if I can reset the galaxy again, or is the only way to get a new galaxy now to go through the Galaxy Center?

I can't see any way of re-doing the Purge quest as there is no option to reset it in the Log.

I can't find any info online about a second reset so any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Improve the subterranian? [Suggestion]

HG recently improved the caves with their Prisms update which is greatly appreciated. I feel however that the generation of subterranian features such as caves and other structures could be improved further. My main thought is regarding generation.

I think it would be nice if the space available for cave generation underground could be expanded, to allow for more extensive cave-systems with greater variety, maybe even some unique structures and deposits down there. There should also be more resources than cobalt to incentivise mining in caves (I know cobalt deposits exist, but most is in caves). I think this would make caving more enjoyable, and give more reason for players to venture underground and explore. I imagine this would also allow for some cool base build opportunities. Maybe also make it slightly easier to find those rare-category underground creatures which I never seem to find no matter how long I look for since more space would be available for them to spawn.

Thoughts? Opinions?

Rescue Stranded Pilot Quest - A Plea [Suggestion]

Does anyone else have the experience of searching for far too many buried technology modules on this quest because each one is corrupted? It really starts to drag after the fifth module or so, even when I start to just ignore the sentinels. After 7 or 8 modules I assume the quest is bugged and give up. Please impose an improvement of the odds of the next buried module establishing a signal for each corrupted module found. After three modules the chance should be better than even of getting a signal. Perhaps another bonus to chance for slaying the corrupted sentinels along the way.

Issues with Names and Persistence [Question]

For a while now I'm botherd by some naming and persistence issues that are ruining some of the fun. And I wonder, if there is something I'm missing, some known workarounds or something. I'm on PS4 Pro.

Naming of Planets, Systems and Exocrafts

I like naming my planets and systems. For one, it helps me finding certain planets again (for example a planet with the robot pets, as I couldn't adopt the first time around because I was missing a creature slot) and I like to immerse myself in games like NMS. So giving certain names based on what I found or encountered is kinda like a journal. It's fun especially when you experience NMS with a friend.

Anyways, after a certain point in time, all systems, planets (and exos) reverted to the original names. I figured out that the names come back for a certain period if I revisit, but it was a huge disapointment, it beeing a recurring problem. Is there any way to prevent it? I'm always connected with the naming server thingy.

Persistence of Resources in certain containers

I can't figure out when it happens and when it doesn't. Sometimes (more often than not) resources in oxygen harvesters, refiners and mining units disappear. Sometimes they do if I reload my save or travel to a different planet/system and back, but sometimes I come back through the portal and the stuff is still there. I don't get it. Only extractors seem to be reliable. Any facts on that? Am I supposed to stand right by the autonomous mining unit until it finishes? Not my idea of autonomous...

Persistence of uploaded bases

I'm playing with a friend and he has his own bases. Two things that are just weird and annoying. He is constantly uploading his bases so that when I'm playing solo, I can visit his mines and empty the silos for him. But after a few visit, his base just vanished. The portal wasn't in my list anymore, so I traveled there by ship and it's...

So what's the deal with the Atlas, the universe etc. [Spoiler]

So I'm new to NMS and got reading the lore. So I read that the universe is a simulation and the Atlas acts like a computer superintendent. I read that the Atlus is dying at that the final moment, realities will combine and travellers(I assume player characters) will interact with eachother. I assume this is linked to the multiplayer.

My question is, does the entire multiverse just end when the Atlus dies? That seems really anticlimactic. Beautiful amazing universe only to just end. Or does the universe/simulation not need Atlas to exist?

I read the ending of the main quest allows for the player to meet the Atlus, with the options to reset the universe simulation or refuse the Atlas. How do these choices relate to the above topic? Does resetting the simulation prevent the universe end?

Musical element that I think is missing: more theme and variation [Discussion]

As it currently stands, the game uses theme and variation for ambient music and that's about it. In my opinion, it would be neat to have a musical theme for each race (Gek, Vy'Keen, Krovax, and Traveller) that would play when in a system or region dominated by that lifeform. Korvax factories would sound different than a Gek factory, the historical archives would have a different ambiance, the space stations could be a neat mix of the four, etc. I appreciate all the work that has gone into the graphical procedural generation, but I'd also like to see the soundtrack get a bit more of the same love.

I can go visit a base (via portal address), arrive in the system, everything is fine....lovely visit.

Yet if I attempt to go back, no base computer. And NMS says I am the discoverer of the system (first contact) which I know is not accurate.

Multi-player is enabled, as is cross-platform. I have restarted entire system (PS4) and that worked once. I play in both Survival and Normal modes and have experienced the same issues. And bases that were made in Creative Mode I have never been able to locate.

What's the deal with Gas Giants? [Discussion]

So I can understand why gas Giants haven't been implemented. They'd be entirely unnecessary, as you can't land on them, and with the way the game was released I can see why they wouldn't include that.

But here's my real question: Does this mean that gas Giants don't exist in the NMS universe? Or do they exist, but are unable to be visited or scanned? It's pretty well-established that NMS has different scientific rules from our universe, so it's not unlikely that they simply don't exist.

Hidden Base Complexity? [Question]

Hello there! I have been building a rather large base on my main save. I went slightly beyond the 3k base unit limit, and it is OK for me. I don't care about uploading it.

The thing is that it seems to be an arbitrary number of base pieces that render, so my cuboid rooms pop in and out of existence, lights flicker, not to mention that I fall through floors if I move through my base, ignoring collision. I cant even take a picture of the base without noticing that something is missing. The issue persists since for everything that pops in, something pops out.

I also fall through the floor in a certain area of my other big base, but the base at least is visble.

The game runs perfectly fine, my PC can handle it. The problem is that the game refuses to show everything for some reason. And the base is not that complex, I havent even added interior stuff.

​

How the base should look

My ingame base complexity setting is Ultra. Doing a google search recommends to change a setting in TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML called " Property name="BaseBuildingLimit" value="5000", but this info seems outdated since I can't find said setting in my file.

I am looking for ANY solutions: mods, changing settings, anything.

Yes or No to my thoughts on the future DLCs. [Suggestion]

Have a new galaxy for those that have maxed through campaigns and such.

The Galaxy contains very few life forms on the space stations, and on planets have the remaining aliens that converse with you be in danger. Quests of dangerous monsters of the sky like a pterodactyl, of the sea like a loch ness monster, of the mountains like giant yetis etc.

Have something of a horror aspect like dead space, where you find big space ships that seem abandoned as you come across dead aliens and see some sort of new threat.

A final boss could be a fleet of the attacked ships fully under the control of the new threat, and have the new threat be of something like a giant life form that could pass through the universe at ease without a ship. Something like the aliens in dead space, or / and the flood kind of thing.

New Weapons, like a black hole gun or something space-like, something that you could find by saving those aliens on your quests on planets or on large vessels.

Or am i just too eager for some massive action.

Space Station Teleports? [Question]

Hello! Im new to NMS and I'm really loving it a lot! I love exploring the planets and finding cool and weird creatures (and splurging on extra pet slots even though I should be saving up for upgrades... oops).

Anyways, I am on the last part of the artemis path, before choosing to go to another galaxy or stay. I researched a bit to see if I'd be able to travel between galaxies since theres some creatures that I want come back to to potentially tame later when I get the money. I also want to comolete the Atlas path first.

I found that people were saying you can switch between galaxies if you have a base set up in both which is all fine and good, but many people were saying it messes with space station teleports logged.

I'm confused about that? I dont usually travel to or from space stations, I just warp to the systems I want to go to. What is the point of them? Am I missing something or not far enough into the game yet? Is it because its a pain to go back and find a specific system through the galaxy map once you've traveled far into a system?

Thanks for any help (:

Getting Rid of Base Floods [Suggestion]

I just read the new post on the NMS site and it quickly got me thinking about two things when I saw the giant boombox. Hello Games could put a giant boombox on a moon type/low gravity planet w decorative space, for it to be like a gathering where everyone can upload and play their beats and it could be a giant dance party 24/7 (they said something like this in the post)

BUT! Super Base Computers (goes into ↑) maybe they could implement giant super base computers (similar to archive) but not as big. so that many players can upload their base and create one without having all of the different names on the bases, the names would just be in the SBC and accessed from there. This could only be on certain planets(events and what not) but I was just thinking!

What do you think?

Idea for Hello Games [Question]

I was thinking the other day. It's such an annoyance to have to constantly have to go to my freighter to start and debrief expeditions (imo).

What if there was a base item you could build on your planet that communicates with your fleet? Theoretically, you could debrief your commanders and send fleets on new expeditions.

This would cut the time of going to your fleet and give more time to questing, farming, or whatever else there is to do.

If this is already a thing, please tell me, if not please up vote this in hopes of getting the attention of Hello Games. I sincerely think this would be a great addition.

Thanks.

Found a potentiallly game breaking bug (also posted on bug thread) [Bug]

So I bought an unprotected repan translator (s class 24 slots) from a space station for 3.6m. I went to see how much a starship costed and instead of bringingq up the normal menu it compared my new multi tool to the ship, and being the idiot I am I exchanged my multi tool for the ship. (I didn’t know how rare the tool was) not only did I not get the ship, but it completely glitched out my multitool. It had no slots, it was c class and when I tried to use it it said β€œSilly Weapon” in the top right. I then went to try and get a new tool and when I got to the compare screen it said the value of my weapon was -2.147 billion that would be the abusable part as you could trade it for any other multitool. I don’t have screenshots of this as it disappeared when I bought a new tool.

Other info: this happened on ps5 I can’t find any info about this I online I’m early game the tool was downgraded to c class

Help for glitch building PC [Question]

So I recently got a PC and now started fresh with new save, but I have horrendous time to adapt from PS4 to PC. It took a bit of time to master the classic glitches on PS4, but looks too hard now to do it on PC. I have read that I can use macros (got a K70 corsair keyboard) can I use it for example by adding a preset on it for building and then use macros on some keys ?

My freighter build just disappeared, but is still there somehow so I can't rebuild it. :( [Bug]

Okay so as the title says... I just spent hours trying to get an S class freighter and now it's bugged. T.T

It's like a hallway got bugged, but when I remove the previous hallway and try and put it back in, nothing happens.

I tried saving, reloading and moving the freighter around to no avail. Please help if you know of a solution to this... I am heartbroken, my freighter is completely useless like this.

Can anyone explain how classes work? [Question]

I don't understand the classes (you know C, B, A, S) in this game. How do they make your ship better? I bought an A tier ship but it has less storage? Does agility and damage output increase or smth? And why should you want a higher class if giving upgrading inventory space costs astronomical amounts?

Amazing game, but crashes way too much for me. Anyone else? [Discussion]

I'm on base PS4. I understand that I shouldn't have the most optimal setup for this game as a result but, that doesn't mean it should be crashing upwards of 5 times a day. I'll play for 30 minutes and then it'll crash. I play again and then maybe after 20 minutes it'll crash again, etc etc.

It's annoying. I LOVE this game to death and I wanna play it more but these crashes really make me hesitate on playing the game. I've had to constantly enter and exit my ship to autosave so I would stop losing so much progress all the time and it became annoying.

Now obviously my situation is not the situation everyone is having with a base PS4 system. If it were I feel like there'd be more talk about it. So, because of that clearly I'm doing something wrong right?

What settings so you guys have on your console? Frame rate? Are there any settings that I need to look out for to decrease the number of crashes?

Again, this isn't just once a week or so (which is still a lot for any game tbh), this is 3-5 times a day. I just wanna play the game for more then 30 minutes at a time without the CONSTANT worry that at any second that blue screen will pop up.

How to upgrade your living ship [Information]

I finally got my first living ship and struggle to find quick summary about upgrading that unusual ship.

In brief: - jump in your living ship - warp to red star system - aim at nothing and initiate pulse - wait 3 to 6 min - an anomaly alert will eventually happen, if it’s a void egg, destroy it - your reward is an upgrade (likely C) - install the new upgrade - right click on the upgrade to improve it until S (cost nanites) - warp to another red star system - rinse and repeat

I had no such luck on green, blue or yellow system. Yes I encountered anomalies but not the desired void eggs.

It may not be the best way but it works.

Why do my ship names keep disappearing [Question]

I have 2-3 ships right now (use one for storage, one to fly around, and usually one I'm fixing up/additional storage if needed (no, i don't have a freighter yet)). Because their names are weird and varied, I'll rename them so i can easily hop from one to the next.

Every few days tho, all my ship re-names have disappeared, and reset to their original names. Any explanation?

I'm on PS4 btw

This game needs an easier way to fly to a specific lat/long [Suggestion]

I think the title pretty much says it all. Navigating to a specific lat/long coordinate on a planet by ship is an exercise in frustration, especially since most of the ships in the game handle like flying bricks.

A nice feature addition would be the ability to tag a specific coordinate on the planet so you can use your pulse engine to get to it quickly and then fly in visually, just like every other tag the game generates. Even if you have to land first to do it. I don't really care, I just want the capability in some fashion.
