PvP question [Question]

I was scoping out a trade post for a squid ship the other day and another player landed nearby (presumably to acquire said squid as well). He ended up firing at my parked ship and - not sure whether parked ships take damage in this manner - I decided to fight back. We had a quick dog fight which he managed to win.

The question - I dropped everything in my ship inventory which I later managed to get back (you drop a bag full of your loot when you die) and I was wondering, if I hadn't reached the bag first, could the opposing player have picked it up and effectively pirated it all from me?

NB - the fight continued on the ground after I realised he outgunned me on the ship, and I managed to ruin him several times with my shotty :)

Deciphering the emojis and cryptic tweets... my prediction [Discussion]

The eye emoji shows 2 of the same thing. He has been tweeting and then retweeting everything so it shows up twice on his feed. Recently did the same thing with the eyes emoji tweet. I have the feeling this update has something to do with copying, or duplicating abilities. Perhaps the ability to copy bases or part configurations allowing for crazier builds. Maybe they doubled the amount of base parts you can place now... just a theory.

Wondering what 👀 means? I may have the answer. [Discussion]

👀 means eyes. Eyes has 4 letters. Sean has 4 letters. 4+4=8. 8 kinda sounds like ate

Ate=eat

Now eat what you may ask? This is where the theory kicks into overdrive.

Frontiers is a word that starts with an F. You know another word that starts with an F? Frosting. Where do you find frosting? Cake. When do you have cake? Your birthday. When was NMS’s birthday? RECENTLY! Its all coming together!

Food update confirmed!

I MUST be doing something wrong here. [Question]

I got this Vy’keen weapons guy employed at my base and he sent me on a “Weapons Research” mission where I have to destroy weapons depots. Easy enough. Except the game keeps telling me that the mission is in another system and I’ve warped 25 times now and I CANT FIND THESE GD DEPOTS. It just keeps telling me to warp farther and farther to no end.

Multi tool trade in [Question]

So, I was wondering how often everyone trades their multi tool? I've encountered many different models, some of which are very expensive, but I've not seen anything to make me want to trade yet. I've upgraded my starting one so it does all the jobs I want, is there any reason to trade it?

I get they can have more slots etc but just curious if there is any point. As far as I can see I will just lose my upgrades for a few more slots in the majority of cases.

I am quite new to the game though...

Positron Ejector Modules [Question]

I am returning to NMS after a year and I've acquired a new ship that I want to upgrade. I generally only use the positron ejector and have been trying to find upgrade modules,

I keep s list of space stations I visit and I document which S class modules each vendor sells. I recall that inventories and such may change through updates. I'm not surprised that some modules in my list are not available from the vendor. I have checked 20 systems so far and not a single S class positron module.

Have I fallen out of favor with the RNG gods, or is it no longer possible to apply S class upgrades to the positron ejector?

Poor performance with no real CPU/GPU load? [Question]

I'm running NMS on a MX150 and i7-8550u. To be fair: it's not very powerful.

But the game is not loading up CPU or GPU. When i track the usage it's very low (<10%) on the GPU and low on CPU (~30%). I'm getting 15-25 FPS with that. (Res: 1504x1000, Scaling 100%, rest on lowest possible). pcue2m

Why are my FPS so low when the usage of CPU/GPU is not limiting? What can i do to improve my fps? ...

Starbirth mission "seeking a specific planet" [Question]

I believe I'm on one of the last parts of the star birth mission.

I need to seek a specific planet and input the glyphs.

I haven't really been given any pointers as to where this planet is, so I've been warping along the "mission destination line" in the galaxy map.

How long does it usually take before finding the planet? I've warped maybe 10 times now and have no sight of my destination being near.

Some Quick Quiksilver Questions [Question]

Hey folks! Just have some quick clarification questions: I see a few people using the overgrown fungus/mold stuff in base-building, and they've told me it was acquired from the quiksilver shop on the Anomaly. I went and looked and couldn't see it anywhere - anyone know what's up with that? Does the weekly community research ever not get completed all the way to stage 3? Do the weekly items that get unlocked for purchase with community research milestones disappear forever if you don't purchase them that week?

#

What if Frontier make us take side with a race and fight for planetary systems ? [Suggestion]

You would pick your favorite race, and depending on conflict level, technology level, etc... the threat would be different. Something like the galactic hub but for war may be put in place to look at the war effort.

To defend your system, you could build some other types of space station dedicated to war, something like a battlestar or like a freighter but less mobile but with a lot more firepower. Or just upgrade the space station with guns. All of that making this system much more difficult to attack even with few players.

Systems would be generating some type of goods or resources for those who helped in battle. There would be titles or grade to earn like general, caporal, sergeant... When you win you could gain quicksilver, with which you could pimp space stations.

You could also claim uncharted systems alone, maybe do some quests to build a space station from scratch. Other players would see what you're doing and try to stop you.

All or some of that would be so awesome and so fitting for a big yearly update !

Anyone else starting to get kinda angry? [Discussion]

Especially in wake of gamescom pulling their bullshit.

HG generally has the track record of releasing these updates soon after their reveal. And, when they don’t, we at least get some information.

So, why the fuck is this different all of a sudden? Why can’t we, if nothing else, get some actual information? Not some vague ass teaser followed by weeks of silence.

Ps5 to ps4 [Question]

Does anybody know if you can transfer saved data on NMS from ps5 to ps4.

Fronteirs Release TIme predictions [Discussion]

Trailers are always uploaded between 12:00-14:00 (Usually around 13:00) to the NMS YouTube channel. Every update after Exo-Mech has either been released on a Friday or Wednsday. The internal branch has been updated and Sean has heralded the update with an emoji.

As it didn't happen today, I'd set my sights (👀) on 13:00 Wednsday the 1st. That's my prediction at least.

Help with reaching the center of the galaxy [Question]

I’m at the edge of the “galaxy center” as the wiki calls it(the span of empty space about 3000ish light years in diameter. But I’m confused as I’m unable to select the center of the galaxy, that ball of light in the middle, to warp to it. Everything online says you need a full hyperdrive, which I do. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? Is this a bug or did I screw something up?

I can't find portal anywhere: end of Starbirth quest. HELP please! [Question]

As stated. Im at the end of the starbirth mission. I can't seem to locate a portal. I have the coordinates but no where to use them.

I used this guide here. https://www.usgamer.net/articles/no-mans-sky-how-to-find-portals-in-2020-synthesis-update#section-1

I went to 10 monoliths. In the galaxy/universe that is listed.

The only thing this does is teach me a word (help with language) or give me directions to a ruin (help with past).

Or just teaches me a word with no option.

I never get the option to locate a portal.

I double checked and I have all 16 symbols unlocked.

Am I missing something?

There is pretty much no directions in the game for the last part of starbirth. How would anyone even be able to figure this out?

Kinda frustrating.

#

Give undergound fauna the underwater treatment? [Suggestion]

Underground fauna are far rarer than their above ground counterparts, they're usually the last fauna left to scan on planets and can take hours to appear. Sure there are a few methods to trick the game into maybe making them appear, like reloading saves or finding exposed but technically "underground" areas near buildings. But if the only way to find them is manipulate the game and not just play it, doesnt that mean there's something wrong? Something I thought of that might help is to use the same system the underwater creatures do, where once you enter the "underwater" state all the ground and air fauna despawn and the water fauna can spawn in. We already have a trigger for an "underground" state where environment hazards go away, couldn't that also despawn the surface fauna and let the underground guys have a chance to spawn in? You'd still have to find caves, and the fauna would still have their rarity level, but at least they wouldn't be blocked from spawning by the fauna cap. Idk, I'm just getting tired of wandering underground for hours and looking up to see a sky filled with green paw prints.

Next expedition final reward [Discussion]

I know last expedition's final reward was the Normandy. Seeing as how HG isn't shy regarding teaming up with other developers and games that revolve around space I would love Doom's fortress of doom as a full on capital freighter. Now here me out, even though those games technically were more about demonic beings and all that it still had some exploration taking place. Doom 2016 took place in Mars I believe. So it wouldn't be a far stretch.

My take on 👀 [Discussion]

So, it's an emoji of "eyes". The word "eyes" sounds like "ides".

Here's the definition of "ides".

So, I think it's safe to conclude that it will release in the first half of a calendar month, either between the 6th and the 13th, or the 8th and the 15th, depending on the month as specified in the definition.

. o O (So there. 😜 Yes, none of that has anything to do with the word "frontiers" or any concepts related to that term.)

A couple of noob questions (Ignoring the story, and finding my old base from another platform) [Question]

Okay so I have played a bit of NMS on PC before but that was a little while ago.

I played through some of the story but mostly I was just interested in building stuff and exploring. I had a nice base with a farm for money but I have forgotten most things about that game

Unfortunately my GPU died so I can't really play on PC anymore unless I play in 720p low settings

I'm going to get the game on Xbox Series X to scratch my itch to play but here are my questions:

  1. Can I start ignoring the story missions after a certain point? Basically does it reach a stage where I have access to everything in the game simply by exploration?

  2. Is there a way I can set up a base on my Xbox save near my PC base so I can still access my old farm? Would this involve having to multiplayer on both accounts at the same time initially?

Earth like planet in survival? [Question]

Hello everybody

I've been looking for the perfect planet for 2 days. When I say perfect planet, I mean an earth like, green grass, blue water, trees with perfect weather and WITHOUT aggressive sentinels.

So far I have found a few but ALWAYS with aggressive sentinels. I am in the Eeissentam galaxy and i am mainly looking on yellow systems.

These kinds of planets, although rare, do they really exist in survival mode?

I can search for a very long time if needed, even if they are very very rare.

Thanks in advance !

Hello everyone as per my last post regarding the troll troll with a psn called Mjglloollqool, I have been busy in placing bases directly next to their troll bases and naming them accordingly, the base features a portal you can use as well communication stations in front of their troll base advising you don’t enter.

I have reason to believe the Frontiers Update will be revealed during The Indie Houses. [Discussion]

There's this upcoming event for Indie game developers coming up called "The Indie Houses, which fits a reasonable timeframe - 31 Aug to 07 Sept.

Although there is no mention of Hello games in the publishers involved, I think they're not the only ones participating to the event as the keyword "involved" is used.

The event mentions this:

The Indie Houses Direct Features:

New game announcements

Never-before-seen content

Content Updates and reveals

Developer live streams and Q&A sessions

And more!

I messed up - multitool scanner [Question]

Hi,

I think I messed up a bit. I am new to the game (bought yesterday and love it) and I wanted to upgrade my scanner. Long story short, don't ask how, I deleted my older scanner (this thing under "c" key). Now I'm without one and I don't know what to do. I've found tons of tutorials how to get an upgrade (should've read them earlier...) but none where to buy one. Without a scanner it's a bit harder, especially now, when I'm just a begginer.

PVP Rules for My PVP Base [Discussion]

So I'm trying to draft some rules for basic PVP events at my base. The idea is to run them through a Discord server. I haven't run PVP events in NMS so I'm asking for help with this. Also, if there are already better rule sets and Discord servers that accommodate PVP events already, I'm more than willing to just offer my base as part of their rotation.

Here's what I have so far:

ORGANIZING A MATCH

Matchmaking: All matches at the Temple should be made in the matchmaking text channel. Participants: All participants must have their PVP turned ON before the beginning of a match. If the participants are in a team-based match, they shall be assigned Team roles so they can communicate in the team voice chats.

Referees: All matches at the Temple must have at least 1 player as referee. Refs must have their PVP turned OFF before the beginning of a match. Refs shall be assigned the Referee role so they can review decisions if needed in the Referee Review voice chat. Refs must also be able to stream their NMS window in the General voice chat for transparency.

Arena Setup: The arena is already set up with walls in a symmetrical pattern, with room over the walls for vertical movement. If other layouts are requested and agreed upon by the participants, please let me know so that it can be done.

GAME MODES

One-on-One: Two (2) players begin on opposite ends of the arena (Red/Blue square, or Yellow/Green square.) Winner is the last player standing.

Grand Melee: Four (4) players starting on a different square each in the arena (Red/Blue/Yellow/Green.) Winner is the last player standing.

Team Battle: Two teams of four (2x4), or four teams of two (4x2.) Setup for each amount of teams is like One-on-One and Grand Melee, respectively. FRIENDLY FIRE IS A THING IN NO MAN'S SKY!! Winner is the last team with players left standing.

All-out War: Up to eight (8) players begin on...

How to install NMS fresh and only update to Pathfinder on PC (and PS4?)? [Question]

I have NMS on Steam and I've played it there a bit. But I'd like to reinstall and only update to Pathfinder to play that version. Is there a guide somewhere (specific to NMS or otherwise) that explains how to do this step by step?

Scanning for Monoliths bug/irritant. [Bug]

I'm in my Nomad. I scan for Alien Structures (aka Monoliths). It finds one. a) I drive over to it, hit all the knowledge stones and the monolith and get it finished. Yay. Next one please.

b) Scan for another, find it, go to it, do the thing Zhu Li, and next please.

c) Scan, find, go, do, next please.

Goto b)'s location. Ugh. Fine, scan again... go to c)'s.. Ugh. FINE. Scan... b) again?!

Stuck in a loop is no way to live life, interloper. And it refuses to find any other before you visit the one it's found.

Ships and grenades should use momentum [Suggestion]

I love flying my ships and blowing up sentinels, but the combat could use work. One major part is the lack of momentum. I think in a procedurally generated game loosely based on RL physics and chemistry, this sort of thing fits right in.

Ship combat is much more fun when you can zoom forward, then let off the gas, and strafe your opponent's freighter as you slide by, or flip upside down and blast the guy following you.

Grenade launchers are meant to use momentum, too. I don't know about you, but I'm always melee boost jumping around in combat. Every time I boost and aim up to blast a sentinel walker, my grenades feel so cartoony as they shoot about 45* away from where they would be going IRL. Could you imagine if this game had combat like Tribes: Ascend? It's not so far off.

This could be an optional thing rhat people could select.

All he ever wanted... "I know my strongest memory growing up in the outback of Australia, seeing the stars at night, and feeling overwhelmed. Reading sci-fi and wishing I could escape into those worlds." SM 2016. [Celebrating five years of NMS]

From a letter in the 2016 press kit. Sean Murray writes...

"I know my strongest memory growing up in the outback of Australia, seeing the stars at night, and feeling overwhelmed. Reading sci-fi and wishing I could escape into those worlds. If for some small moment I can make some people feel that they have stepped through a science fiction book cover, or to think briefly about the size of our universe… then I’ll be happy with that".

Medium Refiner? [Question]

Hello,

I'm trying to obtain the medium refiner. In order to get the blueprint the wiki says to do the "base computer missions."

Are these the missions for building your base and getting the specialists? I've done quite a few of them and not gotten anything. When do I get it?

I have the large refiner and the portable refiner, so I must have purchased those.

What do y'all do in this game? [Question]

Yaw I'm new to the game as in I started playing about half a week ago. Story is done and all that's left to do for me are missions from space stations and "enjoy the galaxy".

Couple of things I realize I can do - Hunt for S-Class ships - Upgrade ships, freighter and equip to S-Class - Explore the Galaxy (though it feels somewhat repetitive with the scan this, go to cave/sea/you name it biome)

There's a few more things that I am aware of but I'd like some guidance from more experienced players as to how to fully enjoy the game.

If you do enjoy some of the things I mentioned, maybe hit a brother up with some insights as to how you went about it and please be my guest and tell me your story about existing in the verse, cheer's

Frontiers content [Discussion]

So like everybody else, I've been on the edge of my seat waiting for the Frontiers update. I don't have as much invested in the game as most of you, only about 50 hours in. Just kinda wanted to voice my thoughts on the situation.

I'm more than content to wait as long as I need to for new content, there have been too many games that have rushed content just for it to turn out horrible. Learned my lesson there, so I'm willing to wait.

The part that has me on the edge of my seat is knowing what the content is. Will it change something about my freighter? Or my pets? Space stations or customized ships? So many options and I have no idea what it will involve, not even a little bit.

If they released a trailer, or even just a statement regarding the content, I'd be happy and content in my wait. Still excited, but the unknown....I hate the unknown. However, still excited and happy and all that...just eagerly waiting to hear what else we have to look forward to.

Stuck in story [Question]

Hey so I’m trying to complete the story but I’m a little stuck

I just talked to the atlas for the second time where I say sixteen a bunch of times and he starts malfunctioning. Then after it gave me a choice and I chose keep exploring, and now it says travel to the center of the galaxy which is 700,000 light years away and I can only go 400 per jump which would take way too long.

however when I was exploring a message popped up and it said I have 1/12 glyphs, does this means anything or doesn’t have anything to do with the story? Do i keep going to new systems to find more glyphs?

Also is the story over? Do I actually have to go to the center? If so how? Am I suppose to be doing something else?

Any help will be appreciated. (-=

Hopes for frontiers [Discussion]

Ive been here since day 1. And i never gave up on nms alot like many of you also stuck with it. The last few updates though havent really brought me any value. After many years and many many save files , hours and enjoyment, Im still waiting for the "substance" to be added to the game. Rather than another update of gimmicks. A purpose for me to carve out my own corner of the galaxy. Rather than just building cool stuff. Or doing the next short run of gimmick update content. Or seeing another planet that just looks similar than the last 1000 i went to.

My hopes are frontiers gives us a purpose in the game.

Also hoping for ship customisation 😂

But anyways. What are you all hoping for from frontiers update ?

Probable fix for crashing [Information]

I am on Xbox, so this may not work for players on other platforms, but may as well still give it a shot.

So I started playing this game a few months ago, and got 11 hours in having a great time. However, the notorious crashing issue I've seen many people have started happening, and I could move around freely, but any world input such as me using a map, placing some floors or even mining some minerals led to a crash.

I stopped playing for a while because of this, and now I've hopped back in only to find it was still happening. I also noticed some weird rendering issues with a few trees because they were hollow. I couldn't mine them and was able to walk straight through them without being blocked. I came up with the idea to warp to a different galaxy, and teleport back using the space station. This seemed to fix the trees, and after a while of playing, I noticed that I hadn't crashed since.

Just thought I'd share to be able to hopefully help a few people who play and are frustrated about the frequent crashes. From my perspective, it seems that the game is having trouble trying to load in a bunch of resources for whatever reason, and it is trying to process them all to no avail, while actions from the player(s) are still being coordinated, causing it to overload itself with stress and crashing. I am not entirely sure that this is the case, and am just stating what might possibly be the issue.

Who else, like me, has been playing NMS since day ONE? And what was your first initial thought of it? [Question]

NMS is like a twisted and demented rollercoaster that has had it tumultuous ups and downs. It's been a love hate relationship from the Get Go. Anyway, I was wondering how many of YOU can claim to have been playing since Day one Like I have?

My first initial thought as I was downloading NMS, half a decade ago, was how little the file size was. "Excitebike" probably had more memory than NMD. There was no way a developer could fit such a game, claiming to do what it said, into such a small size. I initially played it and was very very underwhelmed. Got repetitive very quick. But despite that, I stayed with it and stayed with it like an abused spouse. But it kept getting updated unlike any other game. Adding all the features they promised and some.

If my dreams ever come true, they will keep on updating No Mans Sky for years and years and they will keep on improving the game with things beyond our imagination. The game itself has so much untapped potential and it's the main reason I am sticking to it.

Just hope Sean Murray and his group of Hello Games Personnel keep at it and don't stop. You never know, in the near future Sean Murray could be a real life James Halliday from "Ready Player One".

What’s your favorite basic creature type? [Discussion]

One of the best things about NMS is the Fauna generation, hands down. While it’s far from perfect, there’s plenty of lovable creature types. Diplos, Blobs, Striders, Gliders, Rollers, Raptors, Proto Gek, and more. But what I’ve always wondered is… what do people like the most?

I know Proto Gek and Diplos have a reputation for being popular, but is that really true? Figure this could be a fun discussion. At least, while we wait around for Frontiers to drop.

Space Rescue Mission bugged. Upon completion, mission disappears. [Question]

I’m trying to get an S Class Frieghter, but noticed something odd. I found an A Class with 34+9 and decided I would take it and give up reloading my auto save over and over.

However; the freighter wasn’t free. So, on the next auto save, after I killed the pirates, that freighter wasn’t free either. So during the next battle, I accepted the mission, pushed start, read my Log, saw I had the mission and then complete it. Immediately upon completion the quest disappears. I never get contacted by the ship’s Captain either (I waited 10 mins for good measure).

What gives?

FYI:

I currently own a Freighter, but I bought this one randomly, it wasn’t from a battle, just landed on some random one and bought it not knowing a free one comes later.

Also, after I kill the last pirate, I get a milestone… could this be throwing off the mission or make it glitch? Ugh, help please.

Do you also lose SPARE/BACKUP ships when you die in normal mode? [Question]

I'm fairly new to the game, have played maybe 35-40 hrs or so. I've seen clarifications of what happens when you die in your ship, outside your ship etc but they didn't specify if you also lose your back-up ships. I'm asking this as I use my backup ships as a vault of some sort.

Also, do you also lose exosuit upgrades even storage upgrades on death??

#

Feature request: could we have a mode which disables ships magically following the player through portals? [Suggestion]

I would really appreciate a game mode (Immersive mode?) Which let's me toggle my ship (and freighter) following me automatically to my base or back to previous star systems. Also maybe the option to hide the "summon vehicles" menu.

I feel like there could be some really nice tactical decisions about which ships to leave where. Discovering a new system where you don't have access to all your infrastructure. Deciding to take a portal to your the last base knowing you are stranded unless you can somehow find a ship to buy. Maybe stations could offer a rent-a-ship service to travellers without their own. Salvaging a crashed ship would really mean bringing the parts to the crash site and actually leaving your old ship standing there.

It might not be for everyone but I can really imagine that it could add an interesting layer of generative storytelling.

Suggestion: Synched App [Suggestion]

I would enjoy an app that synchs with the game, displaying progress of harvesters, frigate missions, community research, plant growth, companions, etc.

Kind of a time waster, for sure, but functionality could evolve over time.

Stop abusing mod powers [Discussion]

I've now had multiple posts removed over my time on this sub with the excuse that they were "unrelated or low quality", meanwhile I watch people double-posting with multiple accounts and asking barely legible questions about how to save their game from their own glitch abuse. The most recent one was a screenshot of the Fandom wiki for this game, showing they'd updated version# to 3.??, and asking if they were just guessing.

Regardless of whether or not a mod personally doesn't like me, the post was not low effort or unrelated.

This has been an ongoing issue in this sub where specific individuals will get downvoted or posts removed by mods. They also tried with the ice key frontiers meme and failed, due to people in the thread actually calling them on it.

Please stop, people are just trying to enjoy the sub. Stop trying to egg me towards posting less with flaming. Even after all the downvotes and posts dishonestly removed, I'm still just gonna keep posting.

And just a disclaimer, various other subs I'm in don't tend to do that.

New Flight Model for NMS? [Discussion]

For purposes of discussion, would NMS be more or less enjoyable with a more realistic flight model.

I love NMS, except for the flight model. I feel like flying is too arcade-like and would benefit from a little more "drift and drag" and more complex landing mechanics.Also, I think it would make space combat more interesting if you could use a HOTAS.

However, a space combat sim is definitely not the game HG intended to make, and I know "space combat sims" is a genre of its own.

I'm just wondering what the NMS community thinks. Would more people like for HG to put more effort into Space Combat and the flight model or is it just fine as it is?

I may have messed up my Starbirth (Living ship) quest, can it be saved? [Bug]

In the past few days I’ve been doing the Starbirth quest to get a living ship, I found the quest to be painfully boring and unfulfilling. Because of this I decided that to allow my friend to skip the waiting parts of the quest I’d duplicate the items that have to mature once I had all of them. After I duplicated the items (including the totally empty soul chamber) I continued the quest, leaving the duplicated parts on my freighter. However, when I was collecting souls the quest only allowed me to fill the chamber to 66% and then, once I find the last traveller, it takes it back down to 33% and continues to do so. I figured it had something to do with the duplication, I thought maybe the other soul chambers on my freighter were being filled up instead of the one in my inventory, but this was not the case. One thing to also note was that the Soul Chamber in my inventory always stayed at 33% unlike the quest progression log, which stated it was at 66%. Finally I noticed that the dialogue I started getting changed after I visited the first grave. It seems to treat the graves as parts of a glyph collecting quest instead of a Starbirth quest.

My ultimate question is, can my quest be fixed? And if not, how do I reset my quest? Thank you.

Please, please HG add more discoveries. [Suggestion]

NMS was always sold to me under the guise of exploring the universe and finding unusual and interesting things.

In both terms of Flora and Fauna.

But I’m seeing planets looking the same, fauna repeating itself to the point of being un-canny.

And now the game is a base building simulator with galaxies having no impact on the Proc-Gen. I’m a day one player and love the game, warts and all.

But I feel it’s moving further and further away from its original inception.

So please, please let Frontiers lean into my interloping needs.. the thirst for discovery.

Terrain Generation need more plains. [Suggestion]

A friend of mine went to the Salar de Uyuni some days ago, which is basically a 11,000Km salt sea. The landscape looks otherworldly, and it made me realize how undulated and mountainous NMS's landscape actually is.

I mean, look at this:quality(75)/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-elcomercio.s3.amazonaws.com/public/OKZK4FHDLFCVNHBBM7XU7O5XMY.jpg) picture and just imagine how cool it would be in game to land on an inmense plain with mountains barely visible far away.

Proposed type(s) of ship/freighter [Suggestion]

I wish we had ships and freighters with "unconventional" shapes/layouts. All freighters, for example, are either long and narrow or the star-destroyer style. The bridge is always in the rear, etc. They wouldn't even need to change the layout of the habitable space/bridge/landing zone, just its location and the shape of the craft.

E.g.: I wish we had access to disc-shaped craft, in the style of classic flying saucers or something akin to that. With a cockpit/bridge in the center of a circular disc or slightly "rear of center" on a curved elliptical hull. Or even something as "outside the box" as a crescent (e.g.: the alien ship in "Aliens" and "Prometheus") or something blockier, like the Nostromo in "Alien)." Or something like the Discovery One from 2001: A Space Odyssey or the Event Horizon (eponymous). Large space craft that can't enter atmospheres don't have to be aerodynamic. In space, no one can hear you scream...because it's a vacuum.

I had a dream last night about frontiers [Information]

I basically woke up in this dream and I guess I was in no man's sky? But frontiers came out. I was on this vast mountain range. It wasn't like the ranges in today's nms, something about them were beautiful and amazing. They were soooo much taller and it all looked so perfect like it couldn't have been possibly generated. Each curve and edge was so perfect I can't explain it was amazing. The grass was a deep, yet incredibly vibrant green and that might have been my favorite part. Birds flown thousands of meters on the sky spying down. There were very little plants, maybe a shrub every now and then. The rocks were a lot more common than the plants. The rocks were maybe the size of beach balls. They looked like 20 sided dice but were light shades of green and orange, and were partially underground. I next went to a darker portion of a mountain, and there was a cliff overhang and the mountain sloped down under it, creating a vertical drop. I climbed under the overhang and at the end I saw a door. Then the dream ended.

This dream really changed my views on a what I want in frontiers

Vibrancy in all things, mountain, rocks, sky it was all incredibly beautiful

Variety in terrain generation, todays mountains all kinda look and feel the same. The ones in the dream were all so different and the rare cliff or overhang gave a clear reason to explore. My main problem with no man's sky is you land on a planet and what you see right there is the rest of the planet.

The abundance of different things, in the dream there was little flora and fauna and lots of minerals. This reminds me of an old IGN trailer of the game where planets were truly varied on the abundance of different materials. Some planets could have no life, truly enhancing the survival portion of the game. Some planets could be mineral rich yet dangerous, or safe all based on proc gen. That would REALLY add...

Just putting my guess out on the record for Frontiers [Discussion]

So one system that they used to generate more content was the Anomalies you can come across while Pulsedriving. Essentially the procgen is used to instance a point of interest in space - a trader, an ancient relic, a derelict freighter. It's a way to make the system feel more alive and introduce content that you can stumble upon - or seek out.

There's lots of discussion about how to bring in new worlds, new planets and systems - essentially new instances of solar systems. And of course we have the name 'Frontiers'.

What I think we're going to get is a content system like the pulse drive encounters, but on a galactic scale. So we can generate instances in between solar systems. Spaces that don't appear on the galactic map. Places where no-one has gone before.

As an example, think of a rogue planet, hurtling through space in no solar system. You could either detect on on the galactic map, or perhaps more interestingly be suddenly crashed out of hyperdrive because an uncharted celestial anomaly has crossed your path.

If it was a single planet, then obviously this opens up all sorts of options for it's procgen seed. It could also be a set of planets - functionally an existing solar system but with no sun. This would open up the idea of "owning" your own system like has been speculated for the Space Station Cores.

Down the track it's a content hook for all sorts of future content types. Large scale fleet battles, space whales, gas giants, all kinds of things are more easily possible to add to the system without having to worry about rejigging seeds and universe gen.

Is there a cap on how many damaged ships I can find? [Question]

New player here, while looking around one of the space stations I noticed I could scrap ships for a decent amount of money. I bought around 3-4 emergency maps (I forget what they’re called) and found one ship, and the rest were abandoned buildings. I went into space and got more maps, and this time all of them were buildings. Is there a timer I should be waiting for?

Xbox Series S draw distance performance [Question]

I am going to buy a Series S (Series X would be useless for me right now, I don't own a 4k monitor and the value for money seems reasonable for my case) because my pc sucks. I searched youtube for videos showing the console's draw distance capability, but found very little stuff and it was poorly done. Can any of you help me somehow by posting a performance video on Prism before buying the console? I am undecided whether to continue playing it on the pc or if it is worth spending money.

Can you save the ship you're using to collection? Claiming bonus ship. [Question]

Is this possible? Bought the game before release and "never" played it (well, tested it and ran into bugs instantly and didnt enjoy the ride) so I uninstalled it and forgot about the it completely (played ED religiously). Installed it again a few days ago and really enjoyed to see the vast improvements to it, but i i dont know how to redeem the bonus Horizon ship without losing my current ship. Thats the issue i'm hoping i can get help with.

When you find a crashed ship you can just add it to collection and get it later, but if i have to switch from a current ship to another one that isnt broken aka the bonus Horizon ship? Maybe my current ship will sit on the ground nex to me when i redeem the Horizon (i saw the bonus ship will be placed on the ground before me when claiming it) so maybe i can look at my ship and save it to collection? This is my fear that my current ship will just disappear when claiming the new one. Hoping some clever redditer knows the answer to this one. I searched online like a madman and i couldn't find the answer to this. I know this Horizon ship was supposed to be the starter ship but i completely forgot about it and found it when i dug through the options after about 20h play time, lol. 😁

Thanks a buncharooni!

No man's Sky Assistant App [Question]

Hi everyone 👋 I'm new to Reddit and I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this question. I've been playing nms for a few years now, but I just recently got really into the game. I found the No Man's Sky Assistant App. It's been super helpful for setting up farms, looking up recipes, solving puzzles, etc. I logged on yesterday to play for awhile and tried to open up the assistant app... Nothing. The app won't open. My girlfriend tried on her phone and the same issue occured. I was just curious if anybody else uses the assistant app and if anybody else has been having the same issue.

Question: is cooking worth the boosts? [Question]

So I decided to plant some roots, build a base on a scenic planet and have a place that I can call home. I out down an automatic feeder and an automatic harvester to attract the local creatures and now I'm getting their products. I mostly did this because I like the creatures on this planet but now I have the stuff to cook in a nutrient processor. I haven't done it before and I know you get boosts from it, but is the food worth the boosts? Or is it better to just sell for units?

[Help] Multi tool hunting - Am I doing it wrong? [Question]

Hi fellow interlopers,

I stumbled upon an Alien Multi-tool in the Spacestation but it's only a B-class. So I found a S-class cabinet in a minor settlement on a planet from the system... But there is another multi-tool, not the alien one. Even when I reload at the Spacestation and go back to the minor settlement this is always that same other multi-tool... I tried with an A-class cabinet on the same planet and this is the same multi-tool. It appears that the alien multi-tool only spawns on this planet in the B and C-class cabinet...

I watched some videos on YT about hunting S-class MT and the mechanics of spawn pools but am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your answers and your time!

Never Content [Discussion]

I've played NMS for a good bit of time now. In the beginning there was so much to explore that I felt incentivized to never settle down. I don't really know when the change happened, but I don't have much to look forward to anymore. That curiosity that drove me to explore hundreds of systems is what now leaves me kinda self-defeated. There are so many planets... but after time, they all blur, they're all slight variations and my pursuit of finding just the right combination has led me nowhere. I am nearly 150 hours into my character, and its making me wonder why I should keep playing.

What is missing to get the 2016 Trailer feel [Suggestion]

When i saw the first few trailers of NMS back in 2014, I got a feeling i only get when i watch a good Star Trek episode. A feeling of wonder and excitement. And its even better when watching these old trailers. If you know what i mean please continue reading. So what is it that makes these worlds shown in the trailers so interesting? What is it that could be added to the game to really give you the feeling you are in Star Trek? Take a look with me at some old trailers and let me point out stuff thats important and could be added

-No Man's Sky: Infinite Worlds

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0APP5WcX8v8

7 Years ago this trailer got my attention. Lets see whats missing in the current version of the game: 0:35 dense atmospheric mist and a big random alien structure 0:38 mist again and CRAZY terrain 0:45 bright sand

0:49 big rock formations (and also the herd but i think thats diffucult to add) 5 0:53 IMPORTANT: huge alien monoliths in the background. These add so much to the scene and i think they are not so hard to implement!

-No Man's Sky - I've seen things gameplay trailer

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-UVQ14JrfRI 1:10 big alien structures 1:12 rock formations

In these two short trailers we saw some amazing looking worlds. Implementing the things i pointed out would be huge for the sense of exploration. I know we already have big structures but in the trailers these objects are placed in a more natural way. The scenes in the trailers are handcrafted and staged but i think some of the stuff could actually be added or improved. What do you guys think? Also take a look at the other old trailers! Sorry for spelling etc i am german

Hi Hello Games, let's improve mining. [Suggestion]

I don't mean that we should create more recipes and practical uses for resources (although that's a fine idea too). I mean we should improve the aesthetics of mining itself.

Consider harvesting biome-specific plants. You harvest from the plant, but the plant remains behind and you pluck what you need. It's satisfying.

Whereas when a rock is "mined", the animation is always the same no matter the size or composition of the object. At the very least, those molten pixels could be tailored to the texture of the rock. Or maybe the mining beam isn't perfectly efficient and leaves a few smoldering chunks of mineral behind. Maybe certain mineral types are more likely to explode outward, sending fragments everywhere. Maybe some simply melt into a puddle of molten magma, and some chip and shatter, and some turn to glass. If every mined rock is a slightly different experience depending on color, texture, size and composition, the experience feels more engaging and is less of a chore. And if you incorporate the procedural elements of the object being mined in an artistic way, it would mean fewer animations to design and less work for you. A beneficial improvement to a core element of the game but requiring less time to implement.

I accidentally got rich as a started [Meme]

I have tried playing off and on for a while now but I couldn’t get into nms, but as I was leaving the first freighter I found I accidentally exploded one cargo pod, I didn’t realize I got anything until a few hours later when I noticed some ship ai valves in my inventory sold for 250 million units, I was extremely confused and happy

I know it’s probably not all that much for people who play a lot, but only playing for a few hours and making 250m is funny to me, because my brother has been playing longer and just today got a freighter

Also, I’m pretty sure ship ai valves are pretty rare but if someone could confirm that would be cool

Monday the 30th of August is a bank Holiday for the UK so it is highly unlikely that Hello Games will be working.

Saving in multiplayer when building together (PS4) tnx! [Question]

My bf and I started building a small town together in the same session. Everything was going along great until my game froze. Unfortunately neither of us had saved in a while. I left the game and loaded back in to find that a significant amount of the progress that I'd made on a building was gone, unsurprisingly. However, my bf never left the area, and turned around to find that everything on his end suddenly regressed to my previous save state as well. pa4afr

Now I'm scared to build if both of us aren't present– is the only way to avoid something like this having us both work on it and save at the same time? Are there other ways to make sure the base stays up to date for both of us? ...

Interesting bugs or is it a feature? [Information]

So I recently started a new save, to see the new versions of the quests and what have you. And I have found out that when you trade your ship for a new one, the pilot actually moves to your old ship. Now, if you go talk to him again, and trade ships you can claim your old ship for free.

Help regarding the game pass version cross save and cheat engine [Question]

So me and my friends all started playing recently; I started long before and they’ve all chosen normal mode, whereas my character is on survival mode.

Long story short, we all played for a bit more independently before trying to meet up and realising my character wasn’t compatible with theirs and I’d either have to restart or they all have to.

I’ve said I will restart to join all of them, however I don’t want to run through all the beginning setting up as I’ve done it already very recently.

I read that;

the game pass pc version on the windows store is cross save compatible with the Xbox version that both cheat engine and the save editor work with the windows store version

However, I’m also aware the Xbox is very strict in regards to edited files. So my question is; if I make a character on my pc using the windows version, and use either cheat engine or the save editor to boost through the beginning back to where I got to on my last character- will cross save still work and enable me to continue that character on my xbox? Or will my console fail to read the save file- as I’d much prefer to play on console!

If anyone’s tried/knows, thanks in advance!

So my question after reading some stuff about the expansions is, how come they can change the planets terrain and etc when expansions/updates come out ? Wouldn't that mess with players stuff ?

Game crashes while loading saves (Steam) [Bug]

I wouldn't normally post a problem like this, but I've tried just about every solution I can think of to fix this crash and I'm afraid my system may just be too weak to run NMS since the first Expedition started.

Like the title says, my game crashes without fail on the loading screen after selecting a save. I have tried loading another save in case the other one was corrupted, I have tried creating a new save, I have redownloaded, switched drives, verified files, updated drivers, and even tried launching the Microsoft Store version. No luck.

My CPU is an Intel i5-7500 with 8GBs of RAM. Despite not being well-optimized for gaming, I was still able to run the game without a problem just a couple of months ago until one day it just started crashing. What do y'all think? Is it time for an upgrade or is there something else I could try? I want to experience Frontiers for myself as soon as it comes out.

Multi tool upgrade placement issue for mining beam [Question]

Hello folks!

So i got this 50% extra yield upgrade and i placed it next to the mining beam slot, i also have the advanced mining upgrade and put it in a way that it sits next to the 50% extra yield upgrade as well (see image). Thought that was clever, but im not sure if it works for both.

However my real issue is that the 50% extra yield doesnt seem to work. I put it next to the mining beam and mine a rock, and i get say 14 ferrite and 3 sodium. Then i take it off and place it somewhere where it wont touch any of the mining laser upgrades and i get exactly the same yield.

What gives, guys? I have heard there is a science to this but i would think this was a simple one. Put the extra yield next to the main mining beam and voila! But alas nope.

The 50% extra yield upgrade looks like the advanced mining upgrade visually so i thought maybe its only for that but reading the Wiki it says its for the mining beam so im not sure whats up or what im doing wrong. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Request for coordinates! Looking for the galaxy’s must see locations for a year long research trip across the stars. [Discussion]

Hello Travellers! Conwaggle Enterprises has scooped me off my barstool, strapped me in an S-Class fighter, and told me I have one year to write a best selling travel book. They shouted a few more things after that but the ship took off quite abruptly and I’m afraid I didn’t catch anything after “bring your…�

So, although this is a rather random call sent broadly across vast swaths of the limitless nothingness of the universe via an outdated social networking site from an obscure level one planetary civilization, I’m hoping someone can send along some coordinates to add to my book. I’ve really never left my planet before. In fact I’m having trouble recalling the last time I left that barstool…

Anyway! Whether it be a base in the shape of a titan’s taint, a colossal mountain range of terrific inconvenience, or a humble tavern in a snowy harbour, it would be my great honour to be flown there by this apparently autonomous vessel for a drink or four. Hopefully flown quickly… maybe even instantaneously? I’m not sure how these things work. At worst hopefully through like 15-30 seconds of spinning white light that I want to call…. kubrickian… is that a thing?

To Live Forever: my tips for getting to the Center in Permadeath mode in <5hours [Information]

With the hype around Frontiers I decided to start playing NMS heavily again. Realizing that I had all but the final few achievements I decided to buckle down and get my first 100% game on Steam.

I followed the Artemis storyline and got to the center in ~30hours. I also finished my zoology achievements on the way slowing me down. For fun I did it again in ~7 hours. I just finished it AGAIN in <5hours.

TIPS:

DONT try to get the achievement Take a Deep Breath Reach the Centre of the Galaxy in Survival Mode I got the achievement when I completed To Live Forever Reach the Centre of the Galaxy in Permadeath Mode.

I didnt need get a new ship or a new multitool or any suit tech upgrades.

I view this run in 4 distinct parts with the 1 and only portal trip marking the half way point. Tutorial and obtaining the crashed ship (for smelting) and access to the anomaly GiMP: Grave, Monument, Portal. finding a traveler grave (100nanites) for the first glyph, finding an alien monument (nav data for cartographer maps), finding a portal (VYKdagger, GEKrelic, or KORcasing), and activating it with that first glyph all the way across. I like to also have my cadmium drive built by now but its not my focus, just do it along the way if easy Hyperdrive upgrades. Post-portal I am now 5kLY from the center. I only need to travel ~3kLY more. I am going to need an indium drive. Now that I have gone through the portal every single warp must be towards the galactic center. Get cadmium for the emeril drive and emeril for the indium drive. With each upgrade I destroy the previous. I can reuse the wiring looms so i should have only needed to purchase a total of 5. By this time I have the opportunity to get a Freighter. I ALWAYS GET IT. It can be a safe place to drop my refiner or save the game without going planet side. I can delete the rooms to get...

Anyone on the same boat ? [Discussion]

Day 1 player here, kind of old (50), and only interested in exploration.

I enjoyed v1 tremendously, still my favorite gaming moments to date.

So at a personal level, i'm only interested in terrain generation and the rendering engine, the rest doesn't exist.

I never built a base, didn't do the stories/missions (and will never if it involves killing creature for sport/money), never used any of the fancy gadgets

All i do and want is to play Creative and have nice walks on exotic environements with a sense of mystery and discovery to take pictures and memories, with vintage humanist SF books in mind (thinking Van Vogt, Clarke, etc.).

v1 (up to PF) gave me a lot of that.

Much less since the downgrading of the terrain generation to round hills, and i'm part of the old timers that think NMS has lost a bit of its soul.

But this game remains a unique and marvelous wonder in the gaming galaxy imho and i can't help being attracted to it, patiently waiting for THE update that will bring back everything i miss.

That said, i understand the directions it took.

The two main features besides the story are now multiplayer and base building.

Whatever we think of them, they were and still are necessary to the game: multiplayer was the n°1 requested feature and was not negociable and bases provide half of the screenshots on this reddit so they are obviously now one of the foundations (pun intended) of NMS.

The other gadgets certainly add some colors to that soft, the living ships are beautiful, etc.

Everything's all right, i can see why HG did and added what they did, and i'm thankfull for that: even if i don't use any of it, the game simply wouldn't be there anymore if it weren't for those features.

My only real complain is that base building prevent HG to have the full liberty to reset the universe often, which in turn...

I only have so much gaming time, I'd like your recommendations on the order I should do the following (and feel free to add other suggestions). Story Atlas seeds... I have no idea if this is essential to the main story, nor how to get the components like dark matter. I don't want to look it up for accidental spoilers but it would be good to know if I need to bother about this or not) Base building Finding an ideal planet to build (should I do this in another galaxy?) Freighter research and expeditions Getting vehicles (I have none) Missions

Main thought: is the story more fun if I have vehicles to travel around in? What should I max out?

Thanks in advance

Any PH 🇵🇭 players in here? [Discussion]

We started a community with PH players in NMS. Also made a discord of our own in case any one wanna join. Ofcourse any non-PH players are also welcome to hang out in our discord. (Also haven’t met many PH players so would be cool if we can assemble and make a great hub together)

Having no windows throughout a freighter can be depressing. Why not add viewing screens?? [Suggestion]

Hey interlopers! Day 1 player here. I feel like base building across the board needs A LOT more added to it for non-glitch building players to be able to make truly unique and interesting structures. But one of the biggest missing pieces to me is not having any way to add spectacular views into space on your frieghter.

As far as rendering the frienter base goes, I get why you can't just plop a window anywhere. But it's hard not to want to when your only view is off the freighter's bridge through the dirtiest windows in the galaxy and is half taken up by the freighter's tractor beam.

Now, having watched a lot of Star Trek lately, having a viewing screen to pull up feeds off of different angles of the ship would really up immersion and drop the claustrophobia of frieghter bases. For simplicity, every viewing screen could be cycled through 5 default perspectives; foreward, stern, port, starboard, and below.

I just think this is could be an easy workaround for not being able to place windows on frieghters. What do you all think?

Ok, I’m really bad at this game. [Question]

I’m trying to figure it out, I’m like 3 hours in and I’ve been following the main mission. First problem is that all of my inventory’s are constantly full, I never have room for anything.

Now I’m trying to go to a space station and my thrusters run out of fuel so it says it’s gonna take me 5 hours to get there and that’s if I hold the boost button down. Does anyone have any tips on how I can manage my inventory and how I can get out of this jam I’m in being stuck in space? I am also now being attacked lol.

Scraping ships, lost mine! [Modding]

I am a new player with less than 100H into the game so don't hate on me if it's a common bug/mistake.

So I've earned myself my fist quarter bilion and thought it's time for myself to scrap some station bought ships for my S class exotic to expand it's inventory but in the end (after 10-20 scraps) I lost both my main ship (30 slots A class) and the exotic S class so I gotta wait for another exotic to show up now... Has it happened to any of you? I did restart my game and I went to my freighter to see if they were there but they were both gone. I guess it's best to save after every scrap just to make sure.

Zoology Milestone bug? [Question]

Been trying for a few days now to get my zoology milestone up, since I am trying to go for platinum (PS4). The instructions say "Discovered all species on two planets" with 2/3 until i progress to the next milestone. Ive discovered all the species on multiple planets now and it hasnt gone up. Is this a known thing? Or am i doing something wrong?

#

Elevators for bases would be so handy! [Suggestion]

On a new PS4 so have decided to start over. Building my second base on a planet that has those floating landmasses. Decided to build on one cause it would make for a cool Fort like settlement floating above the ground, however I didn't realise just how high above the ground it was, so yeah having an elevator so I could easily get down to the ground for vehicle exploration would be pretty cool and very useful instead of making a massive stairway down through the rock to the ground beneath. Just a thought.

SEAN!!!!!!

Post Your Positive Reviews of NMS [Suggestion]

u/Sarquon urged us to help NMS to reach Positive status on Steam by posting good reviews. Let’s share our reviews here to help others who may need help articulating why we love it! Here’s mine:

“Amazing! This game ticks all my boxes. Space, exploration, beautiful, open world. You can do anything you want as the game doesn’t have a rigid linear storyline. As someone who loves to do all the sidequests, it is marvellous!

Works as a walking simulator too. During the first Pandemic Lockdown, I used it to feel like I was outside in nature and reduce my stress.

The developers love this game and the players and it shows. Free updates have been dropping since the beginning and show no sign of stopping.

If you’re waffling over the price tag, just wait for a sale as it regularly goes on 50% off.”

NMS Windows 10 via Xbox Game Pass CAN'T PLAY! [Bug]

Well, this was the worst experience I have ever had trying to play a game!

IT JUST SUCKS!

I installed, un-installed, re-installed.

I have all of the recent updates including, Windows 10, Nvidia Drivers, Mobo Bios, everything you can think of I did it. But this game still won't work!

This is the most annoying thing I have ever seen or experienced while trying to play a game!

I mean WTF!

This is the garbage error code,

73811_0x165D3_XB

LOG:

Vulkan Loader Message : terminator_CreateDevice: Failed in ICD C:\WINDOWS\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\nv_dispi.inf_amd64_253e24b785ea60ca.\nvoglv64.dll vkCreateDevicecall

Vulkan Loader Message : vkCreateDevice: Failed to create device chain.

I went to hellogames.zendesk.com, submitted a request, and got a generic email back, basically saying your screwed.

This is the log, but when I google how to fix it, I can't find anything.

Every other game works, games from MS Store, Gamepass, Steam, and Epic all works without an issue. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH NO MAN'S SKY!

I have an MSI b450m PRO VHD MAX with Ryzen 3600x and 16GB of DDR4 ram @ 3600mhz and a 1TB NVME. The game is installed on the C drive. GTX 1660 Super with most recent drivers.

How do I fix this?

I am super annoyed!

So, what are the chances that the next update will change the spawn of certain starships? [Question]

You guys have seen big updates and know what they can change.

I'm asking because I'm in a ship hunt right now. A nice fighter. Secured an A-class, but still want to look for a S-class. The search is on hold right now, but depending on the odds of the update changing the spawn, I might hurry and try to find my ship as soon as possible. At least I already have one, if something happens, but I'd rather get a S-class version.

I'm also wondering how can the update affect finds on the NMSCE.

Appreciate any help!

No Connection To Matchmaking Services - My Last Straw With This Game [Bug]

I really, really like this game. I've been playing it since last year, downloaded it from GamePass and have been able to play with my friends on Steam and GamePass no problem.

Right around the Prisms update (May-June), I wanted to play online with more of my friends on Xbox and PS4, but have been getting roadblocked by the "No connection to Matchmaking Services" At first, I thought it was just online services going haywire because of the update. I tried two weeks later, still the same issue. I cannot join a friend's game, my friends appear online but I can't invite them and they can't invite me (No option appears, just Remove Friend) On the off chance they see me online, they try to join my game but nothing happens when they press the button, but they are able to join each others' game with no issue. I thought it was just a crossplay issue, but I can't even join or see my GamePass/Steam friends online anymore, and now I can no longer play online with any of my friends.

I have read every single solution I can possibly fathom, but now I am at my limit. I have been trying all sorts of solutions since the Prism update: Uninstalled/Reinstalled the game, Xbox app, installed through Windows store, reset the app, etc. Waited for updates, updates came, still no connection. Changed my firewall settings to give the game all permissions necessary, even turning off the firewall does nothing. (No VPN running either.) Changed NAT Type Saved and restarted a couple of times. Started a new game.

It seems every single time I look up this issue there is seemingly NO way to get around it, with no concrete solution or any indication that HelloGames is aware and are actively trying to help. I am growing increasingly frustrated trying to get this game to work, spending hours to find some way to make this "No connection to matchmaking services" go away, only to come...

Can’t warp to galaxy center [Question]

I’m at the final jump before the galactic center of the eissentam galaxy and have a full tank in my hyperdrive but when I press a to warp nothing happens. I’m at the very last system that it guided me to along the galactic center path and it shows the gold line leading to it and then tells my to press a to warp but nothing happens. I’m on Xbox and tried refilling my hyperdrive twice and reloaded my save and relaunched the game but still nothings happening. I bought a junk ship with the bare essentials so like do I need the indium or cadmium drive to reach it or is my game bugged? I need some help.

I feel like a complete dumbass [Question]

Ok, so, I have coordinates to go get the ship I want. I am using the converter to get the glyphs. The coordinates are too long for the converter. It won't let me type in the last 4 digits. So, I have no idea what the hell I am doing here. I went to YouTube to look for help and got a tutorial on understanding hexadecimals. I don't want math class.

I wish there was a difficulty between survival and normal [Suggestion]

Normal is basically creative mode. It's pretty much IMPOSSIBLE to die outside of a glitch. Resources are incredibly plentiful, and you have MASSIVE inventory storage limits. There is really no challenge.

Survival, on the other hand, I wouldn't exactly call it HARD, but you have to play smart. The tuning and difficulty feels just right. Enough difficult to give some challenge, but not so tough as to not be fun and relaxing. Basically, 90% of survival mode is perfect, except TWO things, and one is just more of an annoyance...

Resource collection with inventory limits, and the attack rate of pirates. It doesn't need to have the same inventory size as normal, but a 2-3x increase in stack size would be perfect. It takes an INSANE amount of time and effort to gather the resources just for smaller bases. It sucks that you have to choose between engaging gameplay, or being able to build cool bases. As far as pirates go, the attack rate should be brought closer into line with the frequency of normal. The attacks aren't difficult or a challenge or ANYTHING. Just an inconvenience. You just dip back into atmosphere, go back in the station, or just boost away. It's not an engaging interaction and happens FAR too frequently.

When it was announced that we were getting an increase in inventory sizes, I was HYPED. Finally, I could play at an acceptable difficulty, AND be able to collect enough resources. It only applied to normal mode, though.

I really, REALLY just wish they would adjust the inventory and stack sizes on survival mode, and tweak the pirate attack rate to be a bit less annoying. That's IT. If they don't want to change it, just add "hard" mode like this. I think it would make more sense just to adjust survival, since it only matchmaker with players on the same difficulty, and it would bring more players into that mode as well.

#

I want more variation [Suggestion]

Add a new type of planets called “varied” or something like that where there is more then 1 types of biomes like earth, with a nice forest and lake covering most of the planet and then a big desert biome with a volcano biome in the middle to make it feel more alive, currently it’s like you’ve seen a paradise planet 4,5 times now you’ve seen them all, it should be more interesting!

Can I turn back my console’s internal time/date to start an expedition? [Question]

I stopped playing this game back in February and then recently came back to it in a big way. I found out there were expedition rewards at the Anomaly and then searched online for more information. I’m severely disappointed that I missed out on these so I was curious if there was a way to force start them by manipulation of my Xbox’s internal date/time settings.

Has anyone tried this or is it controlled server-side by HG?

Note: I’m at work so I cannot try this on my own at the moment.

Thanks everyone and I’m hyped for Frontiers! ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽�

Sean Murray's Unsolicited Unconscious Wishlist for No Man's Sky - Volume 1 [Meme]

To clear things up before we start, I have been given the ability to receive the unconscious thoughts of Sean Murry ever since the Korvax experimented on me. These aren't my ideas or opinions, they're Sean's, blame him. Hope that clears up any confusion

Exocraft! They haven't been touched since they were added. We need to bring them up to par with the other vehicles. Heck, even magic-space-base Freighters have technology slots, but none for Exocraft? They should still all feel special, maybe more individual and unique than the do now. Like, what's the difference between the Pilgrim and the Nomad? Tires, that's it? Let's get down to it.

Nomad should have a limited inventory space like now, but peel some of the slots off for technology. Let's go from 16 to 12 inventory slots but add 6 technology slots. To fit it more to the scout craft role, limit the tech slots to engines, boosters and radar, and make it be the only craft that can slot the level 3 radar into tech. Inventory slots on all the exocraft should still be open for any technology, but this will let players 'lean into' the craft's role.

The Piligrim should just be a go-fast-vroom-vroom vehicle, so inventory goes down to 10 but 8 tech slots for engines and boosters only means doubling up on tech will make this little guy FLY. And for the memes, create an exhuast shaper to allow the boost to be stretched to horizontal or vertical lines, or halo rings or x crosses. Long exposures will have tron-like vibes or a group of players can play naughts and crosses.

The Colossus is a mining beast, make it feel like one. Drop 42 inventory slots down to 40, add 8 slots of tech for lasers, cannons, and also a new buildable exocraft refiner tech for either a small one with 1 input slot and/or a large one with 2 input slots, either of them fueled from the engine.

The new guy, the...

Freighter parts, Exocraft bay. [Suggestion]

People have talked about adding windows to freighters, which I would really like also. Another item I think would make freighters a lot better would be an exocraft bay, a place where we can access all exocraft on our freighter, modify them, change their colors, remove items we left on them etc. currently we have to leave and go to a base on a planet to do this. I think this would be a huge QOL upgrade also.

If Sean Murray wants to encourage cute teasing, releasing some info might help [Discussion]

The cute teasing about the update is a fun thing for Sean Murray I'm sure, and for the community.

If he could encourage it by surrendering just a bit, and acknowledging they earned it, it would encourage even more fun posts and I think be even better for the community.

Update could be as small as "we're bug testing", but I think the community earning that through creative efforts would be well received.

Sean went on a retweeting spree tonight. He included some odd phrases, which when put together read: "No surrender. We will not negotiate. The net closes. Checkmate." [Discussion]

"No surrender. We will not negotiate. The net closes. Checkmate."

Reads like a translated alien sentence from the game to me. Maybe a new alien race? An invasion?

With the exception of "no surrender" (which was all he wrote for that tweet), the other phrases are all separated by a couple of line breaks from the rest of the tweet. Just stood out to me.

I'm new Need help!!! [Question]

Okay. I love this game! Having a blast. My inventory is full and I finally made it to a space station. How do I actually trade my goods away for credits!? I've learned the word trade with who I think I need to sell to. What do now?

#

Pretty sure I know what frontiers entails. [Suggestion]

The eyes emoji that Sean Murray used in a tweet relates directly to this sentence at the end of the prisms update notes on the no mans sky website.

"The Space Station hangar has been dramatically overhauled. Please observe flightpath conventions while docking. The station controller will be watching…"

The Station Override that is used if you interact with the station core doesn't exist. Perhaps this is directly what he was saying? These are all sober thoughts fyi.

Edit: I can elaborate if needed I went whiteboard crazy to figure it out. Hope I'm right.

My Vision and Idea on How to do Ship Customization in No Man’s Sky. [Suggestion]

Now I’m aware Ship Customization is a Controversial topic because of the Huge Community behind it, but I think I’ve found a way to accomplish that wish without ruining the fun of Ship Hunting.

Now when I talk about Ship Customization I do Not think of just Ship Color Changing. I Think the Perfect way of Doing it, is Making Ship Customization in a Way that isn’t Possible Through Vanilla finding ships, such as Mix and Matching Parts from other Ship Types and Adding Color Variations Not otherwise Possible. Imagine having a Needle-Nose Fighter with Explorer X Wings or a Exotic Guppy with Tie Wings, It’d be a Perfect way to do it without killing that Part of the Community. You’d get the Parts by Finding the Ships and Scrapping them for a Specific Part(s) that can be done by you choosing the part or its a RNG related drop, and it’s the Same Color so that way you have to Find a Ship with the Parts and Specific Colors as well. Then maybe in your Freighter you can modify the Ships by adding these New Parts in a type of New Garage or modification type ship slot within the Freighter Bay.

Expanding on the Freighter, I Imagine a type of Part Library or new Storage Type for these parts, so that way you can trade these Items As well. I also think Storage definitely needs an overhaul but that’s something else. I’m imagining seeing People Make X-Wings or Ships from Cowboy Bebop Type of Creations.

I would Love to Hear your Thoughts on this Idea and How to Improve on it! :)

Edit: I Also Would LOVE if there was More Ship Variations than what we have now (Like the Concept art) to make EVEN COOLER contraptions. Also Some Combinations could be impossible if it doesn’t fit the ship. Like No Shielded Ball Wings on your Fighter and The Squid Exotic May not be Interchangeable at All. For the Most part whatever doesn’t make sense...

Okay people... I'm gonna do this for y'all. [Discussion]

Day two owning a PS5 (early March, retail, #fuckscalpers), I put in my PS4 launch physical copy into it to try out the the "next gen" version. It hasn't left my ps5 since.

I'm gonna take it out now, which, if my calculations are correct, will force Frontiers to be dropped within 48 hours, thus necessitating be to reinsert disk into PS5.

This is ultimately based on the irrational assumption that if you go to the bathroom after ordering food, it'll be there upon return (Thank you Vincent Vega).

You're welcome.

95% sure its just but did anyone else think the tutorial portion doesn't explain enough? [Question]

95% sure its just me but does anyone else think the tutorial portion just not explain enough? I'm Playing on xbox. The other day I played for a bit and It was fine 30 min, before some friends got on to play something else but Like at the part when you need to find copper, simple or so i thought. Took me a while to locate copper ok thats fine but when I found the marker and start using the terrain manipulator. Theres legit none there... I dug deep down to bed rock... wide area around like 50u around the marker... nothing.. checked to confirm i have empty slots. I'm thinking im doing something wrong... I tried 4 different areas... 5th was where the copper was on the top... took me over an hour just to find the copper. OK I'm prob doing something wrong im thinking but I found it.

I keep going, build a shelter. Ok build the teleporter thing. Ok. Then it says lay wires down in the build menu but theres no option to lay wires. Took me 15 min to realize I had to press LT to lay wires down. Doesnt mention that LT anywhere lol I'm like wtf ok now how to I build the power thing? I can't find how to build it or any explanation except that I have to do it... at that point I'm like no no its been 2 hours... not doing this...

I'm 95% sure this is just me not sleeping and being really tired after work but did any one else think that its not explaining enough or like where you cant find mineral that it says is there? Like I really want to like the game, its right up my alley. I hope its just me being really tired but like f*ck lol

One article speculated settlements and cities [Discussion]

Because a frontier is a boundary beyond which things are unexplored and these theoretically would be the only unexplored element of the nms galaxy.

I really noticed that the amount of prefab buildings and structures since the many shown during nms pre-release demo was cut down significantly. Perhaps they were waiting to sprinkle some prefab buildings back in for a more complete rollout of something bigger?

I know scale would probably be limited but can you imagine a settlement with a mountainous backdrop? Full of shops, residential, and hangout spots… Would be pretty badass.

Masssssive speculation but it’s not the worst crime considering we’re approaching the drop now and even if it’s not accurate I’m sure the update will be very impressive.

Please let it be cities though 😭

Can't get to center of galaxy [Question]

Hi all,

Maybe I'm just missing something but I cant seem to get to the center of the galaxy, i've taken maybe 15 black holes and traveled several million light years (according to the prompt after taking a black hole) and no matter what, the galaxy map continues the path to the galaxy center repeatedly.

Sean is my favorite hype man in gaming [Discussion]

He posts mere emojis and elicites weeks of theories. He reposts the emoji. The mad lad reposts it AGAIN.

As A Day One Player, I Hope Frontiers Does Something About Exploration and the Procgen [Discussion]

I was originally sold on the game when it was first announced by the very first trailer that came out showing those awesome alien worlds and all of the cool creatures and landscapes. I’ve been around for all the updates, and while they have added much needed missing things to the game and things that go along with the original vision for it, I feel that if Frontiers doesn’t include updates to the procgen or anything that makes exploration worthwhile then it’s not the update for me, sadly 😐 I don’t play multiplayer and I honestly don’t care for base building. The whole reason why I got the game years ago was to explore cool looking alien worlds and see crazy creatures. They’ve left the procgen aspect of the game relatively untouched because at the moment everything you see are just variations on a theme and the procgen only comes up with so many things and I think they’ve been holding it back instead of truly letting it go wild. The same assets are constantly being used over and over and seeing the same types of creatures and same types of landscapes honestly gets tiresome 😞 The game might have a ludicrous amount of planets, but in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t matter if they all end up looking alike just with slight differences here and there. I want exploration to feel new and exciting, where planets have unique POIs for people to discover and you also see unique creatures that don’t look like the same ones everyone else is seeing. Every ice planet, toxic planet, hot planet etc. all end up having the same kind of landscape and flora/fauna and it gets predictable knowing what’s going to be on them. I know a lot of people talk about it, but I just wanted to get my thoughts off of my chest as well. The game is great, and I love all of the free updates they’ve added, but for us explorers I feel...

Coming home (warning rant about how much I love this game) I also don’t know what to tag it [Information]

I got the game around the atlas rises update and I feel in love with it, I played it and only it in my free time, I was in love with it, I was there as i watched it transform into a masterpiece, and I know how sappy it sounds but it helped me through depression. Didn’t cure it, but it let me hide among the stars for a few hours. But as the updates came and went and I loved it, never stopped playing, till next generation came. It hit me like a truck, I know that it was made with the ps4 in mind , but it made me think, when was the last update for the ps4. It honestly felt like a heart break. I decided that it was time to let the game be, and hopefully find a new game.

But I couldn’t find a game that I could play for hours and love every second of it. I of course couldn’t let it go and so I decided to grab a gaming laptop, hopefully one that could run NoMansSky on it , but I couldn’t get up the money for it. I feel back into my depression again, had terrible thoughts . Followed the updates and the hype with the updates with the ping of sadness for missing out on it all because I don’t wanna get attached again just to have it torn away. But with frontier on its way, probably mere hours from release, I think it’s time to pop the disc back in and come home.

Why can I see random players bases but not my friends? [Question]

Why is it I can see random strangers bases but the base the my friend builds disappears completely when I log in and he is not there?

Like if I go to some planet that is part of an event or just that a load of people are farming something on, I can see their bases. Sometimes it takes a bit to load in but they are there.

But my friend and I built bases near each other and they are all fine and dandy while we are both online, but once after I leave the game and come back in at a later time, without my friend online, most often his base is nowhere to be found. And yes, we both upload our bases to the system, like many times.

Even with my friends base ON that farming planet populated by dozens of other bases, it doesn't show up if I go in without him.

I just do not get it. Is there a different way too approach this so we can see each others bases more consistently?

There is just no logic to it at all.

Do sales not coincide with each other? [Question]

I know the game is 50% off on steam right now, that got me hyped because I have a friend who’s been wanting to get it on playstation and I figured it would be universal. The game however, is still full price on console, is the sale delayed or is it common for them to do a sale on one platform and not another? If anyone can answer, thanks!
