Resets my friends stuff [Bug]

I recently transported to a different area of systems and when my friends joined they had none of their stuff. Any known bugs about this or am I being dumb?

16/16 mission glitched can't find portal [Bug]

I was just playing the game when I needed to go to the 16/16 portal location and there was nothing there. It just says SEEK THE ATLAS Activate the portal. Now I tried warping to a far away space station to reset the mission. I can't reset it and the mission icon isn't on the galaxy map anymore. Please help.

Star birth keeps sending me to the same solar system [Bug]

I don’t know why but if I am in a red star solar system (because I want red lights) the game will ALWAYS SEND ME TO A YELLOW STAR SYSTEM AND NEVER THE SYSTEM I AM CURRENTLY IN. It is making me obviously pissed and I have no clue on how to fix it. Any help is appreciated. I have already done the quest once and have an alien ship with red lights which I got the first time.

Frontiers is likely not releasing too soon (My theory) [Discussion]

Usually, a big sign that an update is about to drop is frequent changes on the Steam Experimental Branch. This hasn't happened yet, meaning there may be an expected wait of a few weeks or a month. Additionally, NMS is full price on most platforms. Sales will usually last about two weeks, meaning the time until release is at minimum that long.

As hyped for the update we are, we must also remember that our wonderful developers need time to ensure everything is working as intended.

What do you want from Frontier? [Discussion]

I really want them to add the ability to tilt walls by 10°-15° at a time. I'd love to be able to do it without using glitches that make things difficult. And I would love to have elevators. I would like to put a launch pad on one for an underwater base or underground base. What would you guys like? Hopefully the devs will see it.

Planet survey bugged? [Question]

I'm doing a Nexus mission to survey a planet. I need to scan 16 plants. According to the 'Discoveries' tab I've scanned 17, but the mission counter only reads 15/16.

I've been underground, checked bodies of water, flown around, and I can't find anything else. Any suggestions, or any idea why the mission isn't counting all my discoveries?

Game Crashing On Launch Of VR Mode [Bug]

Its in the title. I have the game through game pass on windows 10. I open the game and it opens to a black screen on my pc. And in steam vr it says its booting No Mans Sky. Then it crashes. I have no idea why. I am currently using remote desktop from my oculus quest 2. Any ideas?

Is there a simple way to measure small distances? [Question]

G'day folks,

I'd like to set up a few more refiners, but can't place them within 50u of the current set. OK, how far is 50u? Is my best bet just to keep walking a few steps and try to place a refiner until I'm allowed? Is there a simple way to measure how far I am from a building?

Crashing when using Asus GPU Tweak to overclock GPU? [Question]

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen issues with No Man's Sky when overclocking their GPU using Asus GPU Tweak.

I have an Intel 9900k @ 5Ghz and a RTX3090. I've found that performing pretty much any overclock on the GPU using Asus GPU Tweak will result in NMS hard locking and then crashing several minutes in to the game. My GPU isn't significantly stressed at the time of the crash and it's only sitting at 59C.

The overclock is stable for all other games, including all day loops of 3DMark TimeSpy Extreme, 3DMark Port Royal, Heaven, Superposition and Furmark.

HELP!!! [Bug]

My friend an I have been playing nms together for a while, and today he saved a freighter from an attack. Once he boarded it to claim the ship, it would not let him leave. He’s reloaded multiple times and that hasn’t fixed it. He says it just makes a beeping noise when he tries to take off. Has anyone had this issue before? Thanks!

#

What is the point of taking a base screen shot? [Question]

So if you use the base computer one of the functions you can use is to upload a screenshot of your base. What's the point of this? The screen shot never seems to show up anywhere. Whenever I use the terminus and list out my bases, they all just have that generic blueprint looking background. As do everyone else's bases. The only time I see an image of a base is if it's one of the featured bases. Is that all the uploaded photo is for? To pick out and display featured bases?

#

Starbirth: Finding lost freighter (spoiler) [Spoiler]

So it's late one night and I decide to start the starbirth mission. I get to the crashed freighter and call it a night, save and jump out. My mistake I think was that I was in multiplayer mode and it didn't save my position. I finally found the planet I was supposed to be on, but since I got to the freighter, the coordinates aren't popping up again, and the freighter isn't marked... I can't do the reset for the mission. Help god.

Revisits... [Question]

I wish it was easier to revisit systems/planets!! I discovered a planet with mechanical "dogs" and I wanted one as a pet. Had to leave to get the right food for them but the system had no space station so can't jump straight to it!! Now I can't find it again (I renamed it to make it easier) any tips on getting back to already discovered planets?

No first wave squid [Question]

I've tried to get the red quid to spawn from an alleged first spawn station for hours (100s of times). I've tried reloading after a wave or two and it has never spawned. I don't know what I'm doing wrong any help is appreciated. (its the system in Euclid that's labeled "red Squid first wave station" on Xbox)

To give, or not to give. That is the question. [Suggestion - Community Behavior]

Hey everybody,

So there's a constant debate over whether or not giving hundreds of millions of units worth of items to new players is a good thing. On one hand, you can be helping out newbies who are struggling with resources and need a boost so they can at least buy a good Hauler. On the other hand, you could be ruining the game for them because then they miss a whole part of the game and end up getting bored and trying out a new game.

There is really no correct answer to this. And it usually ends with someone comparing the OP to Hitler.

However, in a recent discussion it was brought up that on any given day in the Anomaly, you have people sitting down waiting for someone to gift them AI valves or something. The point they were making was that there are people that would gladly welcome the handout. And that's true; for example, if I'm starting a new save, I absolutely would not mind 500 million units worth of stuff. Because I've done the struggle before in a previous simulation.

So what if as a community we basically agree to only give handouts to travelers who are sitting on the floor near the Nexus? That way we don't surprise a new player with tons of stuff they might not know how to get rid of unless they somehow decide to randomly sit down on the floor next to the Nexus. And that way the people who are asking for help get the help they need. It won't stop non-Redditors from doing it, but at least it we could do it in the name of making a player's NMS experience as good as possible.

I tend to be on the "it might ruin the game" side of the discussion, but if we used this "code" to determine who WANTS the money, I'd actually be more apt to giving away excess valuable stuff knowing that that's what they want. I mean, if it ruins the game for them, it's on them. Otherwise I'll continue to only give out Storage Augmentations and...

Somehow got a stasis device early [Question]

So last night, when I was half asleep, I decided to improve my Gek friendship on a space station. I bought a lot of items to do so also by with improving my language and practicing it. I wake up today and I check my inventory to see that I somehow got a stasis device which is worth like 15.5 million units. What is the likelihood of getting one of these from an npc from a space station?

You really do get lost in the wonders of this game! [Discussion]

I recently bought the game and already have almost ten hours in. I decided to hop on for an hour earlier at 9pm and I’d go to bed at 10. Next thing, I save my progress at a save beacon on a planet and it says the time is 1AM?! I’m mind boggled, this game has some sort of superpower or something, I swear it was like one minute was 9 and the next is 1, it’s crazy!

Lurker [Question]

PS4. Old person here. I love Sci-Fi. Not a gamer, but I love this game. It’s quiet. It’s better with weed. It’s got me thru Trump, COVID and every single stress I’ve encountered since it’s release. I’ve enjoyed all your posts, info, fan art etc. I’ve been playing since release with 900+ hours (ok 500 hours until the NEXT release and then had to start over for the other 400). Multiplayer was a turn off after some of my bases were changed/destroyed/ruined by other players. I’m way past Euclid & Eissentam. Are there groups you can play with in your galaxy with that won’t mess up your day?

Fans of this game? How do I love it? [Discussion]

Another day of stares at my steam page. Bought this game around Beyond update for VR - I was really disappointed in the VR, but did have a good time with the game standard.

It was an amazing 10 hours and then I noticed it getting really repetitive and kind of dull. I don't usually mind repetitive games, in fact some of them like Elite Dangerous and Diablo are my favorites. Something about NMS just doesn't drive me to want to keep playing. Even vastly different worlds just give off the same vibes.

Background complete: this isn't just an excuse for me to complain about my issues with NMS, I really do want to get my money's worth and find a way to sit down and enjoy this title.

Huge fans, is there something I'm missing? I collect ships, upgrade my bases and freighters, scan stuff, do normal missions and the storyline. Is there more than I'm missing or ways that you guys make the experience more enjoyable? Is it just me? Do you agree somewhat with my take or is this nothing you've ever had to worry about?

Thanks in advance

PS4 Expeditions [Question]

So I just started playing the game again after about two years, and wow has a lot changed! It’s been somewhat overwhelming but an absolute blast all the way! One thing I’ve been looking into and been unable to necessarily figure out is expeditions. I’ve seen that they offer exclusive content and that they were initially limited time events, but some people on pc can get the loot anyway. Is that at all possible on ps4, or can I go back and play through them at all?

Just decided to jump back in but should I wait? [Question]

about NMS and playstation [Question]

I have NMS for PC. Yet recently my wife got me a ps5.

On the PS store, the game is 60 dollars.

I want to make sure im not getting bamboozled.

Because I could get it far cheaper than that for PS4.

My question is. Is there two versions of the game for playstation? Or is it just one version with a ps5 update?

Weird station and lifeless system.. [Discussion:okglove:]

So I'm popping from hyper jump to hyper jump doing a system hop all over the place like a good space murder hobo getting cargo space for myself and my flying Brick and I run into a busted up station. Cool, looks like some battle damage. I go inside, its dark with red emergency lights all over the place and the layout is different (Find out later this was the original station layout) and I wander into one of the two side rooms, oh look..spawn goo. Awesome, and look its kinda swallowed an active portal, this is fine, this is fine. Ok well check out the other room? More of the same. Spawn boogers attached to everything. Do some minor looting of the potted plants and i head out (also the buy/sell terminal had 146 drop pod data being sold in it, YOINK!). That was fun ok lets land on some of these planets. Land on the first one. Scans say 'Abundant life' so cool I'll go scan some critters. !0 minutes hopping all over the place and not one living thing. Well that can't be good. Finally getting tired of being the only living thing I go check out the other 3 planets. Same deal, scans say 'Full of life' but like the second season of Firefly, its dead. Ok well crap. My butts getting out of this haunted bit of space.

I want more of this sort of thing, I mean not just dead systems but things that make you stop and go 'What the heck happened here?' and a reason to dig further into this stuff. It's honestly not something I've run into on other games before all that much and I eat this stuff up. On a side note I'd like to see some event where the spawn used those active portals and invade other planets, not as they are now where you can totally always avoid them.

Suggestion: please allow flying companions greater riding height over water [Suggestion]

Not too long ago, I managed to find a flying companion, and it is very fun to be able fly it off cliffs and mountains to glide gently back to the ground. However, it appears whenever water is involved, I get thrown off the ride as soon as it reaches the water level. I understand that it is probably trying to keep a certain level off the ground as programmed, but could we have those kind of companions keep a certain level above water instead?

Excited for Frontiers! Cheers!

Couple noob questions. [Question]

So probably dumb first question but when I see people talking about Helios and waiting "one day" before going back to him to turn in whatever data for nanites. Is the "one day" a literal one day or one day in game?

I've also been looking at ships to buy/trade and so far all of them have had way less technology slots than my starter ship. Can I upgrade the tech slots beyond the faded gray outline or do I need to keep looking at ships for a better one in terms of tech slots?

I feel like I had a couple of other questions but I seem to have forgotten them, if I remember I'll update this post but anyways, thanks for your input!

This message is to the people who can't get the frontier update off their mind [Information]

If you are like me, and check the subreddit almost hourly, I found a solution

I set up an imaginary date for the release. For me I just implanted in my mind that the frontier update comes out 16 days from the teaser

It is now 13 days away in my mind and I've checked the subreddit a lot less because I've created this fake release date in my mind

Although I will be disappointed if it doesn't come out then, times flies by a lot faster

Also if It come out earlier, it is a nice surprise

Question about the story ending [Spoilers] [Spoiler]

I couldn't find a general questions/discussions thread, so I am posting my questions here.

I am not sure where I am currently standing with the story and what else is expected of me, but I feel that there is more to come. I collected all 16 glyphs, went to several Atlas stations where Atlas first was on the brink of destruction, then it was fine, and presented me with options to either reset the "simulation" or continue as-is (I continued). Also, I had my goodbyes with -null-, Apollo and Artemis. All in all, it seems like the story is completed.

Now, on one hand I still have to find several more Atlas stations in order to collect the blueprints, required for the remembrance. Is this the endgame here?

On the other hand, I am constantly hearing from various people about "reaching the center of the galaxy", but I can't recollect this being mentioned in the storylines (maybe depends on my choices, idk). How do you reach the center of the galaxy? I read somewhere that it requires hundreds/thousands of jumps, which I believe is going to become tedious quickly

Archivist not triggered [Bug]

I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this issue.

I'm playing on the xbox series s and last night I completed 10 planets of fully scanned fauna.

The achievement for scanning 10 planets has popped but the one for scanning 7 planets hasn't.. Would this mean I'd need to start a new save and redo 7 planets or has anyone else encountered this issue?

Please no more rendezvous points [Discussion]

Am I the only one that hates rendezvous points? In one instance there was so much "Hello mommy" and "Johnny was here" nonsense that my save file got corrupt when I got out of my ship.

NMS World Records [Question Suggestion]

Are there any records for things like quickest time to reach the galactic core (normal/survival/permadeath), quickest suicide, quickest volcano death, quickest to 10mil units, 100mil, unit cap, and stuff like that? It would be awesome if there was a repository.

S class and exotics [Question]

If there is an exotic in a system, do you still see S class in other ships or does the exotic being a S class take that slot?

Seen a ship I like and only seen it up to A class so far and an exotic pops in the state quite a bit.

PSVR Galaxy Map w/ DS4 [Suggestion]

I saw some VR updates did indeed happen recently, anyone knowledgeable able to confirm if they finally fixed the broken map controls when using DS4?

Short version, you have no ability to free roam camera, at all, meaning you can only jump fractions of max jump, and then compounding the problem, it will usually default face you in the reverse from your path.

This literally makes PSVR broken and unplayable and insanity to have VR ruined for this long over a map screen control limitation...I tried submitting on HG's feedback (forget name) for it way back too btw. And if truly curious on details for the problem, read this post and the link within it:

I started Permadeath [Information]

As the title says I started playing on permadeath last night, well I started twice, the first time I was on a toxic planet that had me haz protection down to almost empty before I even "woke up" I died shortly after that. My second attempt however I spawned on a scorching planet that was about 130-150 depending on the time of day. This second attempt saw me get my ship which was the first hurdle, after that I was feeling confident. I built a small shelter then went off to space to find the station. I stopped playing once I got there but I feel good about the start I got and wanted to share.

That timeless question. More than 6 ships. [Suggestion]

A great example of what is on may peoples minds. We want more than 6 ships. We wanna be able to trade ships so people who spend ages looking for really cool ships can trade them with the players who spend ages making really cool bases, for example.

One way we could have more than 6 ships, with out changing the inside hangar of the freighters (too much) is simply add a console panel to one of the landing pads. This landing pad will be the one you always land in if you own the freighter. Changing which ship is on the landing pad will replace the old ship with a new ship. Complete with holographic light FX to hide the textures loading in when you switch ships. This could also make it so more than 4 players could land on a freighter.

I would recommend making 16 ships be the new limit. To keep the number in line with the lore.

How ship trading should work? I dunno. Post ideas in comments if you have any

Living Ship upgrade glitch [Bug]

#

My suggestion for NMS: Decal Primatives [Suggestion]

Been playing for a few months now and really loving the game. Base building is a lot of fun and I've seen some cool ones by other people but I feel there is one thing missing and that has to do with base decals. While there are some cool and useful decals available in game, anyone wanting a bit more freedom (like me) might find it a bit lacking. This is why I wanted to suggest adding decal primatives to the game: simple shapes that can be scaled, colored and overlapped to create a variety of designs.

A quick overview of decal primatives

By offering the simple shapes shown here, you can see they can be combined into interesting designs using the existing base color mechanic to change the color. These decals could be unlocked on their own branch of the decal tree, or individually or as a pack in the quicksilver store, or another way. Having seen some of the amazing works created by others using just the existing stripe decal, I know that layering and number of decals would not be a problem, and being simple shapes with only one color, they wouldn't take up much memory by themselves.

I have sent this idea to Hello Games via Zendesk but I wanted to post it to the community as well for feedback. I don't think anyone else has suggested this, at least I couldn't find an existing post, so hopefully I'm not beating a dead horse.

Anyway, thanks for your time and your feedback.

PSVR not playing on PS5 (ps4 version of game) [Question]

PREFACE- I know it has to be PS4 version playing on PS5, shows in corner of tile

I originally had NMS on my extended HDD and played on ps4. When I got the ps5 and update to NMS earlier this year I plugged extended HDD in to ps5(has stayed ever since not back to ps4) and it played fine, amazing compared to last time blurriness was fixed. Game keeps getting better.

With news this week I got excited again and tried to play. I wouldn't launch without having dualsense starting. I had psvr on and moves like always before but said controller disconnected even though I turned on ps5 with moves and used psvr for display.

I deleted the extended HDD version and re-downloaded but same thing continued to happen. I deleted it then went to Ps store and got the ps5&ps4 version downloaded to ps5 ssd. Clicked to play, made sure it was ps4 version but when launched I back at same screen seemingly only allowing to load game in flat with dualsense controller.

Maybe I'm missing something or now I'm just fried from searching and trying. Hope someone can help or I'm not alone going crazy on what changed. Really going to be bummed I I have no fix when Frontiers drops.

I did not play after the prisms update. Last time I remember playing was spring....maybe Aprilish.

Just a thought about a new species [Discussion]

Everyone is focused on adding a new species, but what if we got more than that? What if the frontier thing is about meeting new alien species that are generated procedurally like fauna. "But then there's too many!" i hear you say, to which i say: small villages/towns of pre spaceflight species. Contained to their own systems, unable to leave for whatever story/tech reason. Is it likely? idk man, i just had the thought and wanted to share. Seems pretty frontier-ey to meet all these weird new aliens that no one's ever met.

My favorite thing about hello games [Discussion]

They never fail to amaze me. Anytime I try guessing or predicting an update I am always way off, whatever they add is always so unpredictable and amazing.

Although companions was predicted because of data miners, I couldn't have guessed half the features of the update, such as customization of pets and the egg sequencer, every update adds features I didn't know Ive been wanting

No one could have predicted expeditions, it was such a unique update and added so much to the game and I was really blown away

Every update is a surprise, every update I try to guess a lot of features, but In the end what is added is always so unique and I am always estatic after every update.

I'm never really disappointed whenever an update comes out. I'm always satisfied with what they add, and hello games does their job perfectly.

Thank you hello games, for making the most exciting updates in any game I've ever played, can't wait to see what surprises frontier has to offer!

#

Why I'm not trying to predict features of the frontier update [Discussion]

Every update for no man's sky so far has been unpredictable and amazing

Whatever we guess, we might only get a few small features correct

Hello games always adds features we never knew we wanted, and never fail to amaze me

When frontier comes out and features we could have never thought of come out, come back to this post

My only prediction is what ever it's gonna be, it's gonna be big and we are not going to expect It.

Save files not syncing for crossplay [Bug]

Ahoy hoy fellow travelers! I jus picked this up on me new Xbox one s last week and I'm enjoy the shiz outta it but I've noticed something weird.

Over the last few days though I have noticed that the save file I pull up on the other system (Xbox or PC) is older than when I finished, like nothing I did on my Xbox was saved last night so the save only picks up where I left of with PC.

Is there a fix to the Freighter Captain loop text bug yet? [Bug]

I was trying to dig around, but I see this bug has been an issue going as far back as 2018. When the freighter quest appears, asking for help, and you complete it, there's a chance to get a bug when you attempt to "Inspect Freighter'. It'll go through the dialog saying the captain is happy to let you inspect the freighter, then it'll just end the dialog with no window for inspection coming up. If you talk to him again, he'll just give you the same options and nothing will pop up again when you try to inspect the freighter...

This has happened to me twice so far, trying to get a unique looking freighter but always running into this bug that apparently nobody knows how to fix. Anybody in this subreddit with possible new intel or advice?

Need some Help [Question]

I'm really new to the game, only about 20 hours in, so forgive me if this is a totally easy problem I just haven't found the answer to. In the process of trying to find a creature on a planet for a mission (still haven't found the creature lol) I swam... what has to be miles from my ship. Apparently I hadnt noticed I was out of launch fuel when I started my swim. I can't summon my ship because it's out of fuel and it didn't spawn on my freighter when i flew out on my starter ship. Is there any way for me to find it easily, or is my best bet just to explore the planet I lost it on and hope I find it

Ships for free glitch? [Bug]

Not sure if it’s a glitch or a game mechanic I wasn’t aware of but when I make an offer on some of the aliens flying into space stations I can exchange their ship for my ship for free then go over to them again and claim back my old ship for free.

At one point I made a comment about this but just got downvoted, didn't get any helpful feedback.

On the XSX, I had a really weird glitch that when I took my Xbox into another room and hooked it up to a different TV then took it back and hooked it up to mine, my save was shortened to only 1 hour, when before it was much longer. Every bit of progress after 1 hour was gone. I tried restarting the game and the console, and in an effort to force a cloud sync, I deleted local save files. But the cloud sync also only had 1 hour, which means one of two things:

A. The cloud saves stopped happening after 1 hour of gameplay and somehow the local data was not being read

B. The cloud saves did keep happening but at some point through a glitch they got deleted

I'm wondering if anyone else on an Xbox console has experienced this? I deleted nms in frustration, but I redownloaded it now just to check one more time if my save data came back, and it didn't. Depending on what frontiers looks like, I may hop into a new save and give it a spin again, but at the very least, I'd like to have a plan to make sure this doesn't happen again. More specifically, how do I force cloud saves and manually save so that this doesn't happen next time I unplug and move my xbox? Ideally, I could get a copy of the file and store it on my PC so that I can reload that file should anything happen, but I'm not sure if Xbox allows that.

Game crashing upon alt + tab / entering the loading screen for game file [Bug]

I already sent a request to the zendesk, but I would like to solve it if anyone experienced a similar issue. The game crashes when doing these things and always throws out the same error:

  • Alt + tab (borderless window prevents this)

  • Trying to load/create any game file

The error code is here : 73811_0x116EB1F_ST76561198169994469

I was able to run No Man's Sky in 2019, but obviously, lots of updates were introduced. Already tried out a clean reinstall.

It's my third day in-game, and something amazing happened. [Screenshot]

I was playing with a friend who just started, we found a black hole - hopped in, and got out in a star system, one of them was "paradise".

It was our first stop. I found there some kind of a seashell, which had a pearl inside, I took it, and suddenly lots of sentinels attacked me. there was also a huge sentinel.

I hid underground, and my friend just flew away, after about 3 minutes, I still had the 4 stars on, I decided to go up to the ground again, and I was amazed to see this huge amount of canister IT WAS SO MUCH.

Eventually, I've built a small base so I can collect it peacefully, there was this item called walker brain, I collected all of them, and sold them all for about 10 million.

It was so cool.

Claimed ships not showing up in freighter [Question]

So before getting the freighter I claimed three ships but didn't repair them. I've read on here that they should still show up in your freighter when you get it. I finally got the freighter today and didn't see any of them.

Best Living Ship upgrade system? Uncharted with Nanites? FREE CANDY!!! [Screenshot]

I didn't find the system myself, but I can't find the post here that listed it. Credit where credit is due, if I can find the original post to the system, I will edit the post with that info.

This system was the one I used to upgrade my living ship but then while I was back getting some Cadmium I stumbled across a decent sized patch of Nanites! Come over and help yourselves! With all the nanites you need to upgrade living ship modules, this may be the most convient, if not best, system to upgrade your ships in!

The base "FREE CANDY!!!" is located on Hot in topeka (not my name) at +15.29,-71.90. The runaway mold is sheltered from the firestorms and I have set up a teleporter relay to reset the mold with refiners at the other end!

Artemis quest caused ship to dissappear [Question]

I Was doing the quest for Artemis and I went through the portal and 1st met Atlas when I went back to a normal planet it sent me to a broken ship and and the ship that I was flying in is now gone. I am back in my freighter and that ship is no longer here.

Well, as a returning player I just got the soul scared out of me. [Discussion]

I’ve played on and off since launch, last time I played was, I think, 3 years ago.

So I’m minding my own business on the toxic starter planet, as one does, hiding in a hole during a storm. Storm clears and I come out. I’m then minding my own business, peacefully gathering sodium.

THEN A MOTHERFUCKING WORLD SNAKE IS SHAKING THE GROUND AND FLYING OVER MY FUCKING HEAD.

God, I’m going to love this.

Looking for some tips and kinda noob hints please? [Question]

So..I love this game, but I only get very limited play time due to work and kids and life and blah blah blah... sooooo I often leave and play other things for long periods of time even tho that doesn't mean the game get many hours put in... I just finished mass effext LE and as I haven't tried NMS on my series x I have downloaded it and am ready to go ( on like Monday or Tuesday when I get the chance.)

It's been soooo long I can't really remember everything so thought I would ask here and see if my thinking is correct, if anyone is interested then please let me know if I am right or wrong, if not interested then no harm no.foul....

So you start the game with nothing, just a busted ship and some vague notion of self and the tutorial walks you through gathering stuff and fixing stuff and scanning stuff... I remember that much.

After that ur off to the solar system, is this a random system that nobody has ever used before? Like is it mine basically? If so should I keep it as my base or be moving on?

The mission becomes that there are some sorts of aliens and I need to learn their lingo word by word? And then find my way to the centre of the galaxy/universe -the long way, system by system?

Then it's upgrading g everything. Better ships, suits,guns and base - it felt like this was a major part of the game, like between this and base building it should take a large portion of the time you play? Does it take long to get super bases? Is there quick ways to get this kinda stuff or is it just the grind ( grind has negative connotations so is the wrong word to use as its enjoyable).

And frigates do I need a frigate and a base, or focus on one over the other due to time constraints? Do I have more than one base?

One big question I have is like locations, so I play elite dangerous which has a static galaxy but NMS never felt like that, it felt like the...

Best way to get frigate upgrade modules? [Question]

New freighter owner here. I’m trying to upgrade my freighter for better warp engine and matter beam and such, but I just can’t seem to figure out how to get the modules effectively. It seems to me like the only way to get them in a reasonable amount is by dunking on npc freighters, which as I understand majorly hurts your standing with races. I did a freighter mission, but it cost a sizable chunk of cash, and took a really long time to complete, and just generally didn’t seem worth the trouble. Advice? On a slightly unrelated note, if I buy a new freighter, will I have to unlock all of those upgrades again?

Found a great derelict freighter for cargo bulkhead grinding (Euclid) [Information]

Need more storage for your freighter? This system's derelict (glyphs) is perfect for bulkhead grinding. There are 10 rooms, only 7 required, but all of them are small, and three are straight runs from door to door or from door to ladder. Only enemies are jellies, 6 total, in one or two rooms.

I timed it, and even with my old, slow reflexes, it was 3:05 from the moment I exited my ship to the terminal in engineering.

There are very few crates, and it only spits out C upgrades, so this isn't where you go for salved frigate modules or freighter upgrades, but if all you need/want is cargo expansion, this is your derelict.

System name: Ukupst-Eurit XVII

Coords: 0415:007C:0DD0:00C4, Euclid

Some questions [Question]

Hi, I'm back playing this game after so many time, with all the new updates i have seen it nows looks amazing to dive into, and i wanted to know some things if anyone can help me with it

First, i know that there are some stations on the planets we can discover, but I'm really wanting to see more like cities, or a lot of different structures altogether, does that exist?

Second im really sad to see all time the same type of wildlife, no cool-looking or strange creatures, does those even exist? and its possible to create wildlife with cool looking style?

About the gameplay, i have been playing alone all this time, do you guys recommend searching for a group of people to play with or what are your recommendations on that?

And last but not least, one of the reasons I played was the incredible scenes that happen in the trailers we get, like all that action, is that actually normal gameplay, or it has to be forced by playing with other people

Ty for your time!

What I'd like to see done in an update : a Survival/Permadeath overhaul [Meta]

I'd really like to have a game mode where all these different items and classes really matter in game. Nothing would need to be added, only the rules would be chagned. I'm thinking here how a game like The Outer Worlds gives such rules changes at the highest level (supernova) to make the game feel different while giving underrated or diferent items and choices at "normal" difficulties a chance to shine. When you hit that sweet "I've won" spot it much more rewarding, but wihtout ever really mastering every possibility in the game at the same time.

I'd like to see multitools and ships being really different between each other, so to reach certain points in game or take some missions you'll need specific ship and weapon types. Warped to a high conflict zone? No way you're surviving it in a Hauler or Shuttle. Maybe you can outrun them in your Explorer. Go in it with a cheap ship, not carrying expensive stuff and lower the chances of being a target. Doing a trade run between systems? Hauler will net you 10x the profits, and so on.

Maintaining freighters, bases, ships and gear would need repairs and upkeep in resources so you'd need to have bases to stack stuff to continue using those items. Higher the class, higher the costs. Got unlucky and had a setback, like a base sacked by pirates and you had to run or didn't invest in a Vykeen security troop? No problem, just pack that low upkeep C-Class and go try to rebuild your stuff again. Maybe a different game route from last time. Every activity type - trade, explore, fight, tame creatures, farm, cook - should have a game path on it's own without its benefits affecting the other game's paths too much.

No more "auto warp" from freighters, ships and exocrafts. Forget teleporters like we know them. Portals bring you to another planet but they're not warping your ship, exocrafts and freighter millions...

I wish I was able to support NMS at launch [Discussion]

I'm seeing so many posts here about people who have been around since launch, and I love to see them, but I wish I had been able to afford to be one of them.

I was hyped about NMS for a long time, following development and launch. I was a poor student, in debt with a shitter of a laptop, unable to afford the game, or a computer able to play it on. But I watched.

And I was heartbroken with all the negative reception at launch. Not becuase the game was apparently a "dissapointment", but becuase people didn't seem to appreciate it for what it was. Sure it was far from perfect, but even then the potential was there. Everyone seemed to be hung up on what was missing, and there was not enough support for what the game DID have.

To me, even with all the criticism the game sounded fantastic, even with all the problems. "It's boring" they said, with "nothing to do except pointless wander", and I couldn't believe that experience wasn't enough for people. All I want to do is wander. I want to explore. I want to discover. I want to spend hours just getting lost in an infinite galaxy. For me, it was never about what you can do, or build, or goals and quests to complete, it was about the journey. And seeing people just dismiss that aspect of the game was so sad.

All the negative criticism just made me want it more. I wanted to support the game for what it was, and make sure that all the haters didn't drag the game down, that the developers knew that some people still wanted their game, and that they wouldn't let media spoil the love for the possibilities.

I saved up. For years. I got a new laptop. And I managed to get the game in the sale for the Beyond launch. And I fell even more in love.

I'm not denying that the game has experienced a lot of changes between launch and when I got the game, but the core of it and the potential is all there, and it was always...

Every planet feels the same. [Discussion]

Here are a few problems I have with the game.

1.Every planet feels the same.

Why not have the system create some crazy planets? Even if they seem like they would not be real planets, they would be.

Example, NASA found a planet that rains glass, and another one where it is curved with ice, but due to the pressure of the planet, and how close it is to it's star, the ice is burning but never melting. Planet made out of pure dimond, and a few others as well, one would think planets like that would only be in movies, well, realty is much much more intersting then movies with space. Space.

This right here is what I love most, flying though space! Elite dangerous, while almost everything I hoped for, is extremly grindy, and you can only fly small fighters up to corvette (like no mans sky, though just small fighters)

If no mans sky adds in the level of things to do in space, to what elite has, that would just be a whole new level to the game, along with making the Capital ships controllable. Plantery map.

This is just a little annoyance, because when I do explore a planet, i feel like it is worthless because I have no way to map it out! I hope a plantery map is added in, that fills out as you explore.

Edit: idk why they all say 1, when I hit edit, they are in correct number order..

I also tried getting another ship but even new ones do the same thing.

A few questions about companions [Question]

I've been looking into guides for this stuff but most seem..half done? So I thought I'd ask a few questions here and see if anyone could help me with the answers.

1: Lets get the obvious one out of the way, while the companion system is neat does it actually have a legit use other than 'its fun?' I mean I like flying around on my giant eyeball so I guess thats one use but it seems you can travel rather quickly just using the q to dash method a ton faster, and often times the things they do are not all that useful like scanning or when they drop materials (which you will miss half the time anyway because you are just dashing everywhere). They also seem to REALLY like walking in front of me when I'm mining.

2: Speaking of riding them, any way to speed up how fast they go? Aside from the Vampire Hunter D robo horse things most seem to go at a really slow pace.

3: Flying ones. I see them fly all over the place but when I ride them is there a key to make them go up? They tend to just skate on the ground half the time.

4: Genetics, is there some sort of chart or something telling you what you will get looks wise or is it just random? I had a cool Trex looking one but it came out looking like a completely different critter. All I wanted to really change was the arms but I can't figure out how thats done.

5: Does injecting the egg multiple times increase the values of the things you want to change or is it just only count one of them? Like if I use materials to make it bigger can I use those materials again to make that even bigger?

6: ...why do so many planets have bouncing penis monsters? Just a weird observation.

Any help/tips anyone could provide would be great! =)

Two mods that will give launch players nostalgia. [Modding]

Over the years I tried mods that changed the universe of NMS. And very few ever stayed in my game files. This was because they either changed everything way too much like, changed biome types of planets (which messes up discoveries), or made "wierd" features on like every planet, or they added in new creatures which just messes up discoveries. But every now and then I come across some very well made mods that affect the visuals on the game with out ruining the discoveries.

Before Origins that mod set up was Exosolar's Extra Biomes + Stratos + Expanse. But since, I couldn't really find the right mods. And whilst the two I am about to share really dont live up to Exosolars really well tuned biome mod, they do bring back some of the original launch vibes like the Exosolar mods did (with out taking away from the Origins+ elements of the game.)

Those two mods are DUD's Sky - Colours + Simple Tree Restoration

Because neither of these messes with discoveries they are fine to take on and off, and play with in multiplayer.

Korvax secret connection. (Spoilers) [Spoiler]

So after a vew hundred hours ave noticed a weird connections between Korvax, Atlas, sentnals, the void and the abyss creatures.

Some might already know but the "blood" of the Korvax are nanites. While disturbing in its own right there is more.

Noticed that the viscose liquid turns into goob turns into living slime turns into runaway mould and finaly into nanites. Same with whispering eggs and other abyss related items. Could be a coincidence.

The sentinals are robotic overseers that guard planets from being impacted/changed by the player. They act like a virus spreading across the universe infecting reality. Obeying Atlas. Those sentinals also have "blood" that can be rurned into nanites. Might be a coincidance but they are also robotic.

The living ship uses the "blood" of the sentinals to recover theire shields like a blood transfusion. Also the Void eggs now have planets where they have infested/infected the environment.

The slime stuff is corrupting/changeing/infecting everything and comes from the abyss creatures. (The 1 eyed critters on freighters)

Now the Korvax are know to have this same ability, as they infected the first spawn of the gek changing theire genes to become more dorcile. Also they see Atlas as theire god. Also the simulation room in the nexus has a korvax terminal as control panal.

There are a vew missing links im sure but it starting to look like (to me) that they are all related/connected

Nanites. Infectious behaiver. Following Atlas. Something surely is suspiciusly coincidental...

It still has some missing features I'd love to see (player interaction with water, caustics, more reflections of things like large scale structures/plants) but it's big step up from the vanilla NMS shader (even at Ultra it's severely lacking).

What endgame activities or goals can I pursue? [Question]

I played a lot of NMS a few years ago. I have a class A ship, multitool and a terrible freighter because I got it for free and just picked the first one that I stumbled across. I made a farm for circuit boards on my freighter that lets me get units easily.

So you understand how long ago I left, I don't know any of these: 1. Living creatures 2. Horror mode aka derilict freighters 3. Pets 4. New vehicles

I'm working on learning these but don't know where to go next. Can this nice NMS community please tell me what endgame goals and things I can persue? Also any tips for getting onboard for the things I missed would be nice. Thanks!

PS: I love this game.

Did I just get to another player's system? [Question]

So I just started a new NMS Session yesterday. Got my first hyperdrive and noticed a 'planete dune' system right next to my starting system in the Euclid. So I went there with hyperdrive and it said 'Discovered by (name)'

Wait. I thought it's nearly impossible to get to systems that have already been discovered by other players, since the universe is too big. Is this real? Or just something done by AI or smth.?

Cant post my modding guide I wanted to post? [Bug]

Help, I wanted to post a guide saying "How to get that E3 Vibe" with a screen shot and the planet coordinates etc. But it keeps saying "Please fill above requirements". I have a flair set to modding - guide. I tried default flare, I tried only one screen shot. I tried removing mentions of e3 from title incase some idiot censored it. I can't remove it from the guide totally as one file is called E3 Style Resources.

I am partially writing this to see if other posts that contain no links etc can still be posted. I copy pasted original text and tried multiple times on a fresh page to post the comment. There are no above requirements tagged to fill but it keeps saying it.

-- Well this works. So I will try posting the guide again.

A guide to getting that E3 vibe. [Modding Guide]

Modded Simins

First I reccomend you travel to a Lush planet with giant trees. If you dont know of any, here is Simins. That is the planet in the screen shot with mods, the link shows you the planet without mods and the glyphs. It has a great advantage of already being kinda E3 vibes since Origins and Next Gen released without mods.

I tested combinations of all the working world gen mods (and even the out of date ones to find the pieces that still worked) and came up with this.

Download DUD's Sky - Colors but only take the .paks I list here.

_MOD_DUD_BarrenColors_v3021

_MOD_DUD_DeadColors_v3021

_MOD_DUD_FrozenColors_v3021

Download No Man's Sky Fantasy Origins - Game Overhaul Compatible Expeditions but download the "splited version" and only take _NMSFO-WORLDGEN-E3-STYLE-RESSOURCES-FORMATION_by_Redmas.pak and NOTHING ELSE (most crash your game cuz they dont work anymore) None the less, this one .pak still works, it makes the resources like copper and stuff form in the old fashioned ways like they did back at launch.

Feeling overwhelmed [Bug]

Hi!

I’ve put until now something like 25 hours on this game and I’m pretty amazed. Me and a buddy started playing a week ago and we are trying to progress together. I’ve just received an item worth 70 million from a random stranger aboard the anomaly.

However, I’m feeling overwhelmed with all the possibilities. I still don’t understand how glyphs work or freighters or civilisations and there’s a bug that is eating my mind: my base computer is located on an uneven terrain. I can’t move it and I can’t build under the computer to make it even. Please help this traveller. Is there any way to solve it?

Help Finding an Exotic. [Question]

So after 2 years of playing nms I've finally given in and begun a search for an exotic. Over the last 4-5 days, I've spent about 12 hours (potentially a little more) searching for a specific ship.

I saw a post on the coordinate exchange about this really nice exotic and have been using the current strategy to search for it:

. Gone to the system (obviously) which is a T2, gentle conflict level, Gek system

. Switch between space station and trade posts every 30-60 minutes

. Reload after the first wave has come in

So far, a big fat 0 exotics have shown up.

Any gigachads who can help me if I'm doing something wrong, please let me know..

The thing I genuinely love about this game [Discussion]

Is the opportunities it presents. Frontier update? What is that going to be? No idea. But that's what the game holds for people.

I don't think any of the desires are completely out of the question. Sure, it's not really a combat game so those hopes may not come true, but it wouldn't be impossible if they did. The game is truly a sandbox and I feel like it can be made into whatever Hello Games wants it to be. Little incremental updates can just add completely new mechanics which you would never have thought of.

There's a lovely community here as well - one that supports the efforts the devs have put in. In turn, the devs continue to deliver

Questions about companion egg modifications [Question]

  1. Can you give your to-be-hatched companion a complete attitude adjustment, such as converting "Passive" to "Aggressive" with enough material, or am I stuck with the traits as they appear? I've tried a few times to drop my "playfulness" to get some more "Helpfulness" but instead "playfulness" went up instead of down.

  2. What is a good formula for inducing only one mutation at a time? So far, by varying the dosage, I've gotten no mutation at all or ALL the mutations (example: spikes, new head, scales, new tail, all at once). I can't seem to find a happy medium. Any advice?

Best way to get Storm Crystals [Question]

So for the past week I’ve been searching for storm crystals a few hours after work each day. Went to blue star systems, to activated metal planets, don’t search until an extreme storm, and use my exocraft to cover more ground. I’ve tried two different planets already but haven’t found a single storm crystal. Is there a better way to search for them? Or am I just having bad luck? Cause I’ve looked up videos and they seem to find a good amount fairly quickly sometimes.

I've gone from completely hating to absolutely addicted to this game [Discussion]

I downloaded NMS in 2019 after I had read that the game had finally fulfilled it's potential. I played for a day and deleted it completely hating it. I disliked the story telling approach and found it a game of work for works sake, the primary game loop was too obvious.

A couple of weeks ago my GF got me back into using my VR headset again and on looking for some VR games I noticed NMS has VR support. "If nothing else NMS is good looking game and should look awesome on VR" I thought, so I re-downloaded it.

Starting a new game I noticed subtle but important differences in the story telling route which made the desire to venture out in the stars and explore so much more compelling. I've now just found my first fixer-upper secondary ship and been to the anomaly for the first time and I'm hooked. The work no longer feels like work, it feels like an adventure.

I personally still dislike the tell rather than show approach to the game's story. I mean I don't mind building lore through text like Bloodbourne does for example but where the game tells me something my character is seeing I would much prefer for an animation to show it. Other than that I think I'm going to be playing this for years to come.

#

Come on and start fixing stuff already! [Discussion]

Yes, Frontier is probably gonna be great but please. Shouldn't devs focus on fixing bugs instead of new content at this point?

I can't get platinum because my menial trophies doesn't unlock (even on new saves). I can't finish my derelict mission because I can't sell the crew manifest or captain's logs. I can't find trading stations with the economy scanner (tried on planet, off planet, in atmosphere, on space station, you name it) because why the F not. And on top of this, me and my girlfriend have constant issues with multiplayer. Can't join each others games, can't find each others bases, game crashes way too often for a 5 year old game. The list goes on.

I'm getting really frustrated. The game has come so far, but right now I can't even do the stuff I want to do in game because of all the bugs. It's starting to feel a little Cyberpunky...

Normandy has vanished [Bug]

My Normandy has vanished.

Was playing around today and was going to send some Frigate’s on missions - was scrolling through and noticed I only had 29 now instead of the usual 30.

Low and behold, Normandy has vanished, it’s still down as “previously redeemed” on the save.

I’ve tried loading an old save and it’s still missing - Tried warping and still no show.

Very strange - Playing on PS5.

Anybody else got this issue?

#

Sentinel Waves? [Question]

Sorry for the dumb question here, but I can't seem to find an answer.

When I attack sentinels, whether its a resource dump, locked facility, or just randomly on a map, there it starts what seems to be a series of escalating waves of sentinels. First the floating bugs, then the dogs, then the big walkers.

What I would like to know is whether its just supposed to spawn them indefinitely or not. I'm to the point where I can kill them with little trouble assuming I don't just stand there, but they never seem to stop. There is some kind of black square meter in the top right of my screen that lights up, and I thought maybe once you filled it up and lived they'd stop... but that doesn't seem to correlate to anything except maybe how "dangerous" a wave is.

What am I missing/doing wrong?

#

How to find a Portal [Information]

I totally messed up by not building a base at a portal while playing the main story.

That's why I wasn't able to teleport to other planets with the help of the glyphs. But by chance I found out how to find a portal reliably and in any case on every planet. Prerequisite is an exo-vehicle (Roamer, Colossus) : install all three signal-boosters (Tau-module is the crucial module). scan for alien structure. fly/drive there. build memory module - just in case you will answer the question wrong. answer question correctly use the structure again. Depending on the system you will need a gek relic etc. portal will be displayed in the HUD on that planet. So there is a portal on every planet.

This is what I did to get my second living ship so quickly ☺� [Information]

https://imgur.com/gallery/Eidah3o

I know this has already been covered but this was so much quicker for me.

*I did this right after I completed starbirth. So this would be my second living ship since in order to complete starbirth you must claim a living ship.

YOU MUST COMPLETE THAT MISSION FIRST and HAVE A PORTAL OPEN in order to do what I did so quickly. Also TURN OFF MULTIPLAYER.

—�—�—�—�—�—�—�—�—�—�—-

Ok so once I completed starbirth, the first thing I did was use my portal and entered the glyphs to go to the system the ship I wanted was in. I made sure not to have an egg in my inventory. This may not matter but it definitely made it easier.

Then I used the coordinates provided to find the exact location. This should be a crashed site and will be a regular ship right now. I made a base there and added a save point and teleporter.

I used the teleporter to travel to a base (or a space station) that’s in a system far away from the one I’m in. Once I arrived at the new base (or space station) I got into my ship and went to the Space Anomaly (SA). I purchased a new void egg from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion (3200 qs). Or if you already have an egg that you have stored this is when you get it and put it in your exosuit inventory.

Now, Leave the SA and just start pulsing. Sometimes it doesn’t trigger the living ship anomaly you need to start this mission. I give it about 60-75 seconds and if it hasn’t triggered I open the galaxy map and hop over a couple systems and repeat. That usually does it however if not just keep doing that until it does.

Itll ask you to hatch it or something I honestly can’t remember atm but say yes. Don’t worry about the system you’re currently in and most importantly do not go to the location it tells you.

Now...

Unaible to finish the Atlas Path questline. [Bug]

I'm thinking about coming back to play the game. [Information]

Hi all! So I'm thinking about going back to play this gem and I was looking for some info about the new updates.

I got the game at launch, put it aside after a few days and kept going back to it every now and then just to fly around space and planets because I think is the most relaxing thing ever and because I knew the must've had added more stuff and fixed the game.

I went back then when I saw the trailer of next, played for a good bit, but left it again. While playing, again, every now and then to relax, in creative mode.

Then I went back for the last time with origin and got to mission where you through the portal with the runes, and then guess what? Left it again and never touched it again because I started playing other stuff.

Now I'm here to ask at what state is the game? Would you say it's complete and now it's just a matter of adding new content or does it miss something?

Did they added cities or villages with NPCs rather than the bases in with 4 NPCs and a shop? Are there any plans to do so? I'm asking this because I'd like to engage more with the world with something more than scanning stuff and killing animals (Although I love space battles with pirates).

How many hours would you say it would take to finish the story? I don't have much time, maybe 2 hours a day before going to sleep because work/family and 2 days a week where I can play up to 6 hours a day.

I really love the concept of this game of exploring space, that's why even after the big let down at the start I keep coming back at it, because it lets me live my childhood dreams, and I'm extremely curious about what story HG put into the game but the time I have is limited and if the game doesn't get me I'm nit gonna put the time I have into it, but just part of it and it'll be put aside like the other times, so I really want this to be it.

Thank you!

Theory on what may be one of Frontier's features [Discussion]

Every major update has had an overall theme. And within it many elements, all associated with that theme. For the Abyss update, the theme was underwater exploration.The elements it gave us were a new exocraft, new building parts, new blueprints, etc.

Most travellers that've played for awhile, have seen these gigantic Boundary Failures on planets.These things have been there through many, many updates. And so far, the terminals have only given bits and pieces of lore that connect to larger storylines. But other than that, they're non-functional.

Recently, out of curiosity, I've taken the largest ship models there are (both wide haulers and tall exotics), and found they fit comfortably through the ring, meaning all other ships will to.

In the link above you can see two, thin, perpendicular bars that go at a 45° angle across the ring's opening. And it's pretty obvious they're not there to support the ring. So what are they?

I believe their purpose is the same as a red velvet rope blocking a hallway in a museum, with a sign that says: "New exhibition opening soon". I have two theories about the Boundary Failures and each could be seen as opening new frontiers.

The reasons I believe these are key to the Frontiers update, is that they're the most prominent artifact, with little to no function, in the game. And they've been around for a long time - indicating they're part of something long planned.

It's that aspect that triggered this idea. That they were added to the game so many updates ago and have no real, meaningful purpose.

The first idea has to do with the convenient fact that every ship we can get, fits through it. So my first theory is that they'll be an intergalactic ship portal. A portal where you can select any of the 255 galaxies, and fly your ship to any galaxy you want....

Possible 40k reference? [Question]

How to get actual challenge in no man's sky? [Question]

I wanna talk about some meaningful ways to make your adventure more challenging in NMS. First of all, I must say that I dislike both survival and permadeath modes because I think that the way it puts difficulty in the game is, at least partially, wrong. I hate the fact that your slots are limited or that your environmental protection recharges slower while inside a cavern/ship/building. That's not difficulty, it's only more annoying. If you want to limit ressources, you should make it more difficult to obtain, and not give a lot of it but you can't take everything, that makes no sense. And if you want to make recharging your protection more difficult, you shouldn't make it longer but make it more difficult to find a safe spot.

The best I tried atm is a "no space station" challenge. It makes it more difficult to find ressources and improve your stuff without limiting it, you can't get tons of free upgrades talking to NPC, finding blueprints takes a lot of time and each S tier you find feels so great, I really enjoyed it. But yeah, I progress more slowly. This doesn't mean I can die at all and I never feel endangered in any way. The purpose of the game is not to put you in danger, I know it's meant to be a sandbox but still, I think a great sandbox should challenge you if you are specifically searching for challenge. That should at least be an option (without having this atrocious stacking limits and having to waith for 25 more seconds to recharge your environmental protection.

Do you have some challenge ideas you can share with me? I know that the new frontier update could very well bring me everything I need in just a few days, but it may as well not bring it at all, so it doesn't hurt to ask. Thx per advance!

The first Expedition had 5 phases, and I think this one will too, mostly because if I counted correctly there were 5 major updates. My guess is that each phase will give you a reward dedicated to a certain big update, for example maybe something that has to do with Beyond or something that has to do with Next. And the final reward will either be something that represents something as a whole, something that somehow brings all of the updates together into one item, or something dedicated to Frontiers. Wonder what your thoughts are on what might come in the next expedition, or if there will be another at all.

Ship glitched [Bug]

I've seen some living ships missing components, how "naked" can a living ship get? [Question]

I've got a ship missing feet and at least one other component, I remember someone writing how they shrieked in horror and ran from what they described as an "undercooked chicken" of a living ship but no pics or Coords. So the questions to be answered are : How much can be missing from the living ship; and Where can I find one?

All help will be greatly appreciated.

VR or No VR? [Discussion]

Hi guys,

I got NMS when it the beyond update came out because I wanted to use it in VR as I had always imagined that this would be the optimal way to play. Unfortunately, my VR legs come and go. In my mind, everyone is playing in VR, but I just came to the realization that that may not be true. So how do YOU play personally? I'm genuinely curious.

Shouting Thank You Into The Void [Discussion]

Just went into the Anomaly for one of the first times - I only got this game recently and haven't explored the multiplayer aspect at all, so when a player walked up in front of me I jumped up and down a few times to acknowledge them because I didn't know how to interact. This seems to have pleased them, because they gave me 5 Fusion Ignitors, which are worth so many units that my jaw actually dropped (78 MILLION. I've managed to accumulate about 6 million total, including what I've spent on ships and 1 freighter). It was incredibly generous of them, so Theron, if you see this, you just gave a newbie a huge head start in this game. Thank you, and if there was some reciprocal action I was meant to take that I missed I apologise, and I hope you don't feel slighted!

Hi all! I have almost 90 hours of playtime and I need some tips... [Question]

Rest in Paradise, Friend-Entity Humpy. [Spoiler]

Just a few moments ago, my first Permadeath character tragically perished by complete accident. After 28+ hours of narrowly escaping his final rest many times on his journeys towards the center of the galaxy, he was just beginning to flourish and figure out what he was capable of. Unfortunately, not long after finally obtaining an A-Class Starship for free after mostly remaining modest and minimalist on his travels, it seems Atlas was not willing to let him live any longer. He boarded his new Starship, ascended the stairs to once again go meet with his gracious captain as he had many other times, only to tragically glitch through the bottom of it, unable to return, killing him instantly in the vacuum of space. I feel terrible. He was never honest with Artemis about his fate, although he made sure to always visit to him when got a chance on the Anomaly to talk to his dear friend. Apollo will beat him to the center of the galaxy, waiting for his friend that will never show, nor will he be able to ever know what happened to him. His great buddies Nada and Polo will never get to see him again either, but I know that they will reconvene one day just as they left off. I am shook ladies and gentlemen. Never has a video game in my 22 years of life left me with my jaw on the floor for this long. I will play again eventually after this feeing subsides, but for now, Rest In Paradise Friend-Entity Humpy. Know your actions made the universe a better place and you will be remembered as a great traveler.

Feeling pretty good about the game now. [Discussion]

I hope you'll forgive this rambling I'm about to go on, but I felt quite inspired to hop onto this subreddit and write this.

It's been a while since I last played No Man's Sky seriously, I still fondly remember the first time I finally got to the center of the galaxy and moved on to the next one... Unfortunately by then I had begun to get burnout from the game and decided to move on to other games, mainly Elite Dangerous. However since that game's new DLC released, any motivation to play that game had drained out of me faster than the first time I played Survival mode in NMS and realized my hazard protection was already almost gone by the time I got through the intro thing. Then the expedition update came out, which I was excited for, but then the save glitches happened and the premature "Expedition completed" thing happened. I didn't even know they had a second expedition, completely missed that one too, so I do not have any of those rewards sadly.

Now, with the seemingly upcoming release of the Frontiers update (which if I may point out is a rather ironic name considering my previous sentence.) I find myself enamored with the game again and feeling like I'm discovering it all over again, even before the update drops. I can honestly say that, after playing it again after a long break, that I missed NMS, and I am very glad to see it still going after all this time. Hell imagine my surprise when I found out that the planet I started on contained an A Rank Full Slot Alien Multitool, and it was one of the first inhabited buildings I went to. I felt like maybe that was some sort of sign that I needed to be playing this again, and so now I am.

In fact I feel a want to take a part in the community, though I'm not sure how I might go about doing that, other than hanging around this subreddit. Maybe there's a discord server or something to that effect that I could join,...

Game freezes entire computer and anomaly is empty [Bug]

Hello everyone! I have a very weird problem with the game. After playing for a random duration of time (sometimes 15 minutes, sometimes 2 hours), the game freezes, and the entire computer freezes along with it, leaving me with doing nothing but a system reboot. I've checked the event viewer to see if the graphics drivers crash for example, but I've found nothing of note before the reboot event. I've tried other Vulkan games to make sure it wasn't an API problem, but it doesn't happen with any of them (examples being Valheim and Doom). This is the only game in which this happens.

Also, I have no idea if it's related, but the anomaly has been empty since I noticed this. I think this started happening with the prisms update.

Is it possible to play the same save across VR/normal mode yet? [Question]

I have a PS5 and got seriously into the VR with the graphic upgrades - it’s honestly the most incredible game I’ve played when I use the VR.

But getting the headset etc. out and using it isn’t always feasible if my partner is home or I only have a little time. I came to realise I can’t use the same save, and I don’t want to play two separate saves at once.

Just wondering if this is resolved yet or is going to be? Currently away from home and just spotted the frontier updates.. desperately want to play again when I’m back. If this doesn’t work yet, I’ll probably just force myself to only play in VR.

Do you feel immersed in the game? Why? [Discussion]

When I play, I don't have that sense of immersion but maybe you do? If so what do you think make you feel immersed in the game?

In games like RDR2, I'm immersed in the world because there's a lot of things I come across (places or people I can interact with) and I see people living their lives and talking together, it sometimes feel it would happen even if I wasn't there to witness it. Also there's tons of little things to explore and do, Rockstar works in the details (of course I'm not comparing HG with Rockstar, I understand Rockstar is a bigger team too) and I think that's what's missing in NMS for me. The communities seem to only be on trading platforms/space stations so planets are just flore and fauna basically. If RDR2 was doing the same, I'd be pretty bored.

I can imagine being more immersed if I'd see a guy trying to repair his ship in the middle of nowhere or coming across a settlement of some travelers. Little things that would make the universe seem more alive. I know the journey continues and I'm grateful they are constantly working on it to make the game better so I'm hopeful one day I'll feel immersed again.

NMS / SteamVR - Rift S - Tracking Problems - I come from ED [Question]

Hiho together,

I am an absolute newbie when it comes to NMS.

I come from ED but since with Odyssey VR was simply forgotten I wanted to look at NMS now.

At startup, I unfortunately always get the error message that my Occulus Rift S tracking problems according to SteamVR. The display then remains static (similar to cinema screen mode) and the VR controllers are bound to one place. Rotation works but buttons or else not. Once NMS and SteamVR are closed (with mouse), the graphics display is correct again in the "Occulus Home". VR controller still unchanged. Unplug the vr, wait 10 sec, plug in is the fix.

Rift S / SteamVR + ED:Odyssey works fine.

I have already tried the following:

  • Grafic Settings are via Nvidia Geforce set to Ultra but i cut it to 50%. (between Medium/High i think)

  • All reflective surfaces somehow covered

  • Room what well lit. no direct sunlight + lamp on

  • Changed USB port (Advanced Power Options USB Ports: Selective Power: Disabled, Power Control can't shutdown Device ...)

  • PC restart

  • "Occulus Client" repaired via Setup.exe

  • SteamVR checked for errors

  • NMS checked for errors via Steam

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you in advance

Where's my second ship? [Question]

Hi all.

Newbie here.

Last night, I bought a second ship.

Then I hopped back in my starter ship, because the new one needs a couple of upgrades before I want to switch to it.

I hopped out to save the game, and logged off.

Just logged back in, and the new ship isn't in the space station. I teleported back to my base, and it's not there either. My Units reflect the purchase, so it definitely saved after I bought the second ship.

Where's the second ship?

Your most stupid death in the game? [Discussion]

Probably this topic is trite but what was your most stupid and unexpected death in the game? Anything goes, from bugs to your own doing.

I lost my previous permadeath save because I decided to shot at one of those "whispering eggs" in an abandoned factory. I couldn't even see what jumped at me to kill me. I thought it was simply an adornment lore to give you a puzzle, so let's shoot at it... No. Those eggs killed me. I'm tempted to shoot at them from the distance now while close to the ship just to try to see the creature but not nuts to do it.

Spacewalks on frigates should feel like a risk [Suggestion]

I may have been watching too many space operas, but I feel like going on to your frigates to fix components isn't nearly as harrowing an experience as it should be. Currently, the task is a chore that gets old. Crank down that low atmosphere gravity to new depths and give a timer to O2 levels. Like seriously, you're telling me I run out of O2 in water, but I can breathe forever in space?

I think changes like these would make the spacewalk portion of frigate repair a lot more interesting without making it too constricting. Any other ideas?

What is the community consensus on Expeditions? [Discussion]

So for context, I haven't played No Man's Sky in a while. I think the last update I played was Living Ship, so it has been a fair minute. I've been looking to get back into the game recently and will probably start with the new Frontiers update in the near future.

However, I see one update that I missed is one by the name of Expeditions. Are the rewards for these Expeditions truly time limited or will they return in the future? I don't care as much about titles and badges, people who went through the Expedition deserve something to show off that is unique to them. However, things like ships and player cosmetics being missed out on feels kinda bad. No Man's Sky to me is a game that I can pick up at any time with no fear of FOMO and grind out a few hundred hours exploring and building bases. Thinking that I could miss out on something which would complete my base or look cool in my ship collection while I'm playing another game is lame.

I also see you have to make a Diablo 3-esque seasonal character to get these rewards? I just don't know how I feel about these stipulations and was wondering what the community reaction to the update was. It doesn't seem as universally positive as all the other free content they've put into the game over the years.

How to find other peoples bases [Question]

Stupid question time.

Some background: I just got to the centre of the galaxy in permadeath for the first time. I was going to build a decent base, expand the capacity of my ship etc. I thought I'd build an act indium mine. But I thought I'd visit some other indium mines first just to get some starter funds. So I googled some coordinates for permadeath euclid indium farms. However whenever I go to these planets I can't find bases. I had assume with cross play (I'm on xbox) that it wouldn't matter. However when I couldn't find any I stuck to coordinates from xbox only and only from the last 6 months. Still no luck. And I've tried it in multiplayer and regular mode.

Is there anything in particular I have to do when I arrive in these systems to find another players base?

Steam user wondering: How do updates work on consoles? PS4 in particular. [Question]

Hi travellers!

I'm visiting family across the country and missing NMS. I'm usually a Steam player but I obviously couldn't bring my desktop PC across the country with me.

I was considering picking up a copy of NMS from a used game shop here so I could play it on my brother's PS4.

I have a few questions: If this is like the OG version of NMS (from 2016), is that what I get when I play or will it get all the updates when I load it? If it does get those updates, is a Play Station Plus account required? (Not sure if he has that, but he does have internet and I think he plays other games online with friends) Is a physical copy of the game actually needed or can I buy it online, similar to Steam or Xbox?

Thanks in advance!

Things that I really hope are in frontier [Discussion]

1 - Proc Gen remake for plants

I don't like the current plant procgen, just models with different colors and size

I want a base of the trunk to be generated, then a trunk, then sticks, then leaves, leaves size, details, etc...

It would fix most of the problems of the game with repetitiveness

2 - planet stats

I watched an old trailer for the game showing planets with rare animals, and high minerals

Next was a planet with much life and not much minerals

It seems to me all planets kind of have the same layout, same amount of minerals, nearly same amount of animals

3 - better ambience sounds

Don't git me wrong this isn't a huge problem and if it's not added I'll be fine without it

But many planets have the same ambience

In an old trailer I saw a desert planet, very quiet, wind sounds

Next planet was so much more loud, and the sounds seemed so natural and full of life

4 - New terrain and atmosphere

The terrain in the older versions looked so chaotic and random, and I want some planets like that again

Also the lighting was very beautiful and vibrant and wish for some more of that

5 - threats

The game is way to easy and most threats are glitches

I wish for some Subnautica Like leviathans

Frontiers What I think it will be. [Discussion]

I personally think it will be a space update because space is the final frontier irl so the name fits. They also stated that they wanted to add a missing part of sci-fi to the game and a big part of sci-fi is space.

In my opinion space is lackluster in NMS. There really is no point in flying around in space other than to go to other planets or the space station. Yes you get the space encounters, but most of them are just for show. In other words, space could be that missing part of sci-fi they want to add. The last reason I think Frontiers will be a space update is because of the station cores that was added with prisms. Whatever they do, I think Frontiers will allow us to use them, and space stations are in space, so it would fit if this was a space update. Everything about this update screams Space update. From the name to the station cores that was added, but otherwise unusable. I could be wrong, this is just speculation off of nothing but the name. What do you guys think?

…to the generous person who gave me a v3 AtlasPass and 8 million units worth of treasure.

I loved vanilla NMS, but haven’t been back much since that time. The idea of randomly encountering other players was a huge turnoff for me.

Whoever this player was, they made my day. I’m on PS5, and in the moment I didn’t know how to say thanks in-game, so I stood next to them and jumped up and down for a bit, lol. As we parted ways, they said “Enjoy your gifts! Hope you love No Man’s Sky!”

It may seem small, but this was an experience I will never forget.

Core to core jump nerfed? [Question]

Has anybody else experienced a freeze in the galaxy jump animation when attempting to jump a second galaxy when core to core jumping? It happened to me last night and just now. I can go through a black hole and jump the first galaxy just fine, but when I try to jump a second I just get a frozen screen.

Mineral search [Question]

I’ve spent three days searching for the last three minerals to analyze on this god forsaken moon and there’s 100% chance I’m going to cry if I ever find them.

Upgrading living ship inventory [Question]

Is this still a thing? Does anyone know if the method using a 2nd player to upgrade your living ship space was ever patched? I finally got around to picking up my second living ship but it's been forever since I got my first one so things may have changed.

It was time to move on [Discussion]

Most of my exploration has been around these clusters of systems because I was just having too much fun to go anywhere else.

I've been playing off and on for years. I loved the game when it first came out, and love it even more now. I loved it so much, I didn't need a purpose, just that sandbox to play in.

Never done the Atlas Quest (started it, back in the early days, then abandoned it). Never been to the center of the galaxy. Traveled through one black hole, but so long ago that I don't even remember when it was. More recently, made it through Artemis but not Patterns in Time before abandoning that, too. Because I didn't want structure. I just wanted that sandbox.

I've spent hundreds of game hours exploring the same region of space--sometimes making jumps of a hundred light years or less. Just a fraction of those planets are shown above.

In that time I've built bases, finally acquired a freighter, maxed out ships, freighter, frigates, maxed out units, obtained more nanites than I can possibly spend, played with just about every glitch and exploit I could find just for the heck of it, explored under water, experimented with exocraft, died dozens of times (blown myself up with stray clicks for over half of those), hopped through portals, hunted ships and multitools, raided derelicts, gotten a living ship, and pretty much explored every aspect of the game I could find. Almost all in that same region of space.

My bucket list is huuuuge, having grown and grown with each release. Most of it has been checked off. There are still a few items left on it, but for the first time since I started the game back in 2016? I finally am feeling the itch to go somewhere.

So I am heading in. See you on the other side.

Some suggestions i had while playing [Suggestion]

I want to know you guys’ opinion

Multiplayer ships, spaceships where you can be with 1 - 4 players all doing different parts (driver, gunner, miner) that would make multiplayer alot more fun, and it would add a size variety to ships

Walk in ships. With some ships it would make sense to be able to enter it. For example: in a hauler type ship, you could enter from the back, and have some place for building (portable refiner, storage) it would be cool, and also nice for multiplayer. Some ships like fighters wouldnt have this and just work like normal. But the colossus exo-craft could also have this feature

Space station rooms. Space stations are huge, but most of that space is unused. I suggest that there would be a property agent in every space station, where you could buy a room. It would have its own entrance on the side for 1 ship. And there could be elevators in the already existing backrooms which would give acces to these chambers. It would have limited base building, comparable to freighters, but with some unique features, like a pretty view of space/planets from windows in the spacestations side. Also there should be more space station variety.

Asteroid landing. Every astroid field would have a central astroid, where you could land with ships, and build bases. It would be a lot larger than the current astroids, but way smaller than planets/moons. There could be low gravity, but mining the ground with a terrain manipulator would give space resources like those from astroids. There wouldnt be a lot of room to build, but a small refinery to refine the gathered metals could fit

Terraformer, the terraformer would be a structure to improve base building. When placed it would scan the nearby area like a base computer, and would then form a see through forcefield around it. This would be a pretty late game feature. After the initial placement it would open up...

Ships and there use [Question]

Question is about the ships and there usefulness with the maximum upgrades. I haven't tested this my self, hope someone in the community did.

The Explorer: is this really the best to explore? The maximum hyperdrive range, cheapest. The Fighter: best damage and best maneuverability. The Hauler: most inventory slots, best shields. The Shuttle: a mix of all.

But where does the Exotic and the living ships come to use?

Thanks in advance.

Upgraded my PS4 NMS to the PS5 version and all Save Game data is gone? [Question]

After doing the upgrade, I started NMS and was brought to a new game screen. There was no indication that I could load any of my other saves and everything I had done previously is gone. I searched on this issue and found that I could have uploaded my save data prior to upgrading NMS. It would have been nice if I was informed of this by the upgrade process or if they just did it automatically.

Is all of my data gone, or do I have any recourse?

Is this a bug? Renaming planets. [Question]

Basically to keep it simple:

renamed a planet, uploaded it, online discovery services were green but exited the game WITHOUT saving, then loaded save again

Noticed then I could still rename my planet from default again.

As long as you don't save the game you can have another chance at renaming a planet if you load a save from a previous time. Even if you uploaded it and online discovery services were online the first time.

Is this normal? Or may I have bugged my game?

I then changed the name again, uploaded it, online discovery services were online and saved the game. Do you think it'll stay changed for everyone too or I broke it?

Future update wish list [Discussion]

Here I'll list my hopes and dreams for the future of No Man's Sky in the hopes that at least some of this may be realised and if we're lucky, some of it's already included in Frontiers.

More variety and uniqueness in planetary ambience and animal sounds.

More plants and animals utilising procedural generation with more assets, parts and accessories.

Certain areas on planets differ from the main biome; Ex: full fields, islands and regions of specific agricultural substances, swamplands, flooded plains, long stretches of flat land as far as the eye can see, North and South poles with varying factors, other biomes.

Much, much deeper oceans, so deep it can get dark, with new deep sea fish.

Planet rotations enabled, moon orbits, physical stars in the centre of systems.

Planet biome actually determined based on distance from star and other factors in parts of the system, as stated was the case pre-release. (Don't want to see a frozen moon orbiting a hot planet anymore).

Longer days and nights, again determined by distance from star AND size & type of star and the planet, how many moons it has etc.

WATER. Please fix the water rendering, make it more interactive and add in flowing water for rivers and waterfalls.

Animals interaction with environment, maneuvering obstacles not noclipping right through them.

Animals on planet having characteristics determined specifically by the biome they're in.

More deadly animals.

Animals with poisons that can affect the player and require treatment with medications etc.

More realistic atmospheres and weather effects, more fog and mist especially above and around water areas with varying colours conforming to the planets water colour.

Higher variety in colours, translucency and viscosity of planet liquids; Ex: 'Water' can be thicker meaning slower swimming, less visibility, goopy purple substances etc....

Neglected Star Seed [Question]

Ok, so, this might sound ridiculous, but I've been playing for about 2yrs, and I just found a star seed from the Atlas quest. I've looked around, but can't get a straight answer: what are star seeds for? Just a health boost or is there something I've missed about it? Just wondering.

Update/how to on my Colossal Triceratops from yesterday. [Information]

Yesterday I posted a video of a Triceratops egg that I hatched that ended up being FAR bigger than I expected:

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/p46my7/while_we_waited_for_a_storm_to_come_i_hatched_an/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

No mods or anything (I play on Xbox) just found a lucky creature whose eggs were able to take a ton of growth hormone in the Egg Sequencer.

During this clip I was on a Nexus mission and got stuck on the way back inside the Anomaly, and had to reload my save. Thankfully, the egg was still there, and I was able to go somewhere nice and give the parent of such an amazing creature a proper send-off before bringing their baby into the universe, and it grew up to be even bigger:

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/p4uh43/one_generation_to_the_next_saying_goodbye_one/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

The post was removed because I had a typo in the original title and deleted/reposted it, and you're only allowed 1 video post per day, which I was unaware of. I messaged the mods and hopefully it'll be back up soon, but you should be able to see it at the link above.

I had a lot of people asking me how I created this massive creature, so I put all the steps together, the only difficult part is waiting for an egg to be avialable and hatch. Adopt an animal. This is the only one I've ever seen get anywhere near this big, but you can increase the size of any to certain limit and I'd love to see more giants. The Portal coordinates for the parents of the giant Triceratops I have are...

In game purchases? [Discussion]

Anyone else feels like Hello Games needs to make more money from NMS at this point? I bought the game 3 years ago and have played more than enough for it to be worth it, I want them to succeed and make more games. In game purchases would help with that, I don’t mean pay to win but more like let you buy quicksilver or cosmetic upgrades instead of grinding for them, what do you guys think?

Twister? [Question]

When did twisters become a thing in the game? I was building a base when a storm hit and it flung my toon around in circles and far away from my base.. Thankful for my jetpack since I was building my base on a high island surrounded by deep waters..

I just spent the last half hour farming technological data to get a new tool and it won't even appear. [Bug]

I went up to a space station in my first system and saw this really good multitool but because I had just started I had no money. So I just spent the last half hour farming tech data to get the tool and now nothing even pops up, I'd be fine with a weaker tool that's still better than the starter tool but literally nothing is there. Do I have to wait for something to appear or is this a glitch? If it is a glitch how do I get a new tool?

Very disappointed [Tweet]

Just got my permadeath self killed because I opened my inventory and some aggressive creature decided I looked like a good meal. I didn’t even have time to realize I was being attacked and it was over. Had over 90 hours in that guy, and had just bought a very attractive ship. Sigh.

Frustration taking away my interest in playing [Discussion]

I've loved this game from the beginning, and I always come back to playing it. I was curious if other people wind up losing interest in playing due to game crashes and glitches. It's frustrating to get through most of a derelict freighter and have it freeze on you and have to start all over again, especially when that's the only way to get freighter upgrades. I wish there was another way to earn freighter upgrades; the derelict freighter mission crashes are just too exasperating. I finally did get through one, and then I hit the pulse drive to get back to my freighter and glitched inside of it and died lol. That's on me though, I should have just called it to me instead of pulsing to it.

How to use cracked void egg [Question]

Base Height Limit: How high is too high? [Question]

So I put a lot of effort to make an orbital station, went so far as to create a new base computer at a height and then continued building until I hit the "Entering Atmosphere" notification. Any higher and I started losing life support.

Turns out, when you reload, that whole base disappears. As of now, my rage is 5 cylindrical rooms above by base computer. And I can't build any higher.

Is there some way to get around this limit?

I'm on PC, and settings are all ultra.

2 Feedback Points about building in no man sky [Discussion]

It would be cool when the material actually would mean something right now it really dosnt matter execpt the looks of it.it would be cool that wooden buildings would actually burn in lava planets. and that you need stronger metal walls too build there.That would be cooler in a survival aspect that metal walls would defend you better against enemies than wood ones.. And i have this point for very long time but please for the love of good redcude the costs of anything. Walls and other things are simply overpriced.Yes maybe its not a problem when you are already 50 hours in the game but in early game when you want too build cool things its just horror.i build 2 walls and boom i have too go get materials again then i build a few more walls and boom i need to do it again and the costs are simply too high and i actually love building in games but in no man sky the costs are annoying.So yeah these are 2 feedback points and i would really think it would be alot cooler this way.

( i will ignore every comment wich is personally triggerd and tries too start a argument with me with insulting me because they cant accept crisitm on their favorite game.grow up and many people are nice in this community but there are also alot of fanboys defending litterly anything and feeling personall attacked when one guy dislikes something about the game lol.)

I play NMS on a Mac. And as many of you know, Macs are horrible for gaming. But the prisms update somehow makes the game look so much more beautiful.

[Main Objective: Patterns In Time] Quest item's stuck in unbreakable terrain, can't reach [Question]

So, basically what the title says... I'm on the mainline story quest, where Null's had me go to a vy'keen cartographer to gather intel and fetch them some Important Relic.

Thing is, the relic in question is underneath an unbreakable volcano-like structure. Can't mine it, can't terrain manipulate it, can't dig under it. Mission seems tied to this specific structure, as bouncing between systems doesn't pull it away from this particular location. Don't know how to reset this quest. Images attached.

help?? (and thanks in advance!)
