Seemingly Endless crash loop on toxic planet? [Bug]

I am about to lose 35 hours of data on PlayStation if I can't solve this. It seems I landed on some weird section of a planet that keeps crashing after I take off.

I've tried: walking away on foot, crashes at a certain distance. Terrain Manipulator on the ground near where my ship landed, instant crash. Taking off on the ship and not moving, crashes after the ship moves 15 feet forward or so.

Any advice? I've tried 7 times now and have crashed every single time.

Optimization [Discussion]

Is it just me or is the games optimization bad? I'm rocking a GTX 970 (still on the recommended specs page) and a CPU that's still on the recommended specs page and yet on the lowest settings, I get stuttering, bugs and around max 65 fps.

Unlimited Jetpack Booster (Glitch?) [Bug]

I had just made the jump into a new Galaxy. I have all my primary Jetpack Modules in my General Inventory with 3 additional Modules in my Technology Slots. Before fixing my damaged Jetpack Modules my Jetpack had unlimited Fuel/Boost. The Jetpack icon was red indicating that my Jetpack was Unavailable. However I was able to continue to use my Jetpack unlimitedly. Repairing the Jetpack Modules put an end to my high flying spree. That is, until I get to the next Galaxy. 👀

*FYI, I'm on PC/Steam

Atlas Path Ques, The End Bug? [Question]

Hello guys,

first of all thanks for all the responses, I appreciate every tipp and answer!

​

So basically I've been playing NMS for a long time now, and I also did complete the Atlas path questline, which means I have all the blueprints for the ten Atlas seeds. The thing is, I already DID give birth to another star. I already DID create all ten Atlas seeds. Moreover, I also see the positions of the black holes nearby me, and I also have two items in my inventory called "star seed" and "remembrance", which seem to cooperate because of the white frame.

So my problem is, now, that i obviously completed the questline because of the rewards and the things mentioned above, the quest itself in the protocol menu is still there. It tells me to find the next atlas station and talk to the Atlas. I also tried to do this, and its just the same as the last Atlas station of the questline.

So my questions are now 1. Is my Atlas path mission bugged so that I can't finish it? 2. Is there a way I can solve this so that my quest is listed as completed, means erased from the protocol menu?

Thanks for everyone who answers this! Have a nice day!

Blue screen shortly after loading up a save [Bug]

So I never used to have this problem and it hits or misses. But I have recently had my game keep blue screening on Windows 10 after loading into a save. Like I get past the menu, I get past the universe loading bit, then shortly after running around on the planet for maybe a minute or two I crash out and have to restart my computer.

I am pretty sure it isn't hardware since I can play other graphics and processor heavy games all day with no issue. It just seems to be with NMS. Any tips on why and how to fix it?

Can you see your bases from another save in same mode? [Question]

Hello everyone,

So basically I reached the building limit on my first save in Normal mode.

I decided to make a new save just to be able to continue building. (Still using same account and same Normal mode). Halfway someone tells me that I won’t be able to see my other bases from other accounts so I’m hesitant now to continue.

Can someone confirm if that’s the case. Or have the latest patches change it and we can see our other builds from other saves?

Thank you

From ps4 to PC (how to not start over from scrap) [Question]

Hello fellows space explorers.

After putting together mu new rig, i decided to buy again NMS, on steam this time. I already own it on ps4 where I have about 100+ hours of gameplay.

Now, I know it's impossible to transfer save game from a ps4 to a PC, but I was wondering if you guys know any trick to transfer credits, technology, nanites, ships or freighters using cross play.

NMS - Xbox Series X Performance [Question]

Hello all!

Im really really really liking the game and im starting to see a dip in performance on the Next Gen Consoles. In some planets, in some zones i feel the performance just goes down to 20/30FPS. Is this normal?

I some games, theres a toggle between performance or visuals mode. Cant seem to find one in this game.

Is there a setting im missing? What settings do you guys use?

Falling asleep while being at the anomaly turned out great for me. [Discussion]

The community of players in this game is what this world needs more of. I was playing tonight and around midnight my daughter started crying in bed (I'm assuming bad dream) and I went in to lay with her, and ended up falling asleep. Woke up a little while later and came back to the game to find out that I had been given a plethora of items, including a void egg! I've only been playing this for about a week, after randomly coming across the game at my local library, and I've been pleasantly surprised with how helpful people are on here and on youtube. I've not seen a single mocking comment on any platform, the coordinates page has a steady flow of people just wanting to share things they like with others, unbelievable amounts of time invested in spreadsheets about economies, freighters, etc. I know this is rambling, just wanted to point out a little positivity in the world. Lastly, to all you awesome people who gave items to Gingery_dad_bod I greatly appreciate it and will pass it on! Carry on fellow travellers!

No trading challenge - what i will miss? [Question]

Hello, im kinda new player. From what i saw anomaly and space stations can offer all possible upgrades, and it kinda kills fun for me. My question is: is it possible to find all that stuff just by exploring and not trading at all? What is the stuff that i can only get by buying it? I think i will start a new (survival mode) game without trading/ buying stuff if possible.

Fastest Nanites: Double curious deposits [Information]

I put this on the coordinate exchange, but I think this is the fastest possible way to collect nanites, so people here would be interested. 2 curious deposits a few hunted units from each other, where I put a super-teleporter (thanks to Beeblebum). Use your plasma launcher + optical drill to blow them up. Save point and 10 refiners at each end. It's fast enough to keep 20 refiners busy for eterrnity! Eissentam glyphs and planet coordinates attached. Base is called "Freaky Double Curious Bubbles". Enjoy!

​

This is of course no hint about the update being released today or soon but with the latest changes yesterday on 30th of August and the changes today (also the steam sale -50 % now) it's more likely to be released "soon".

The fact Sean hasn't shown anything regarding frontiers could be bad news. [Discussion]

Beyond and Origins both got either a trailer, or the cover art about 5 days before release. (I wasn't around when Next arrived so if anyone could tell me if it got teased a couple days before release that would be great.)

This was good since they were big releases, showing us trailers to tamper expectations couple days before they came out.

However.. with Frontiers, this update honestly has been frustrating. No trailer, no cover art tease, nothing. No hype. Nothing to tamper expectations. I've seen this sub reddit, and expectations are pretty damn high! This worries me, since this could significantly hurt the update. We know it's coming out tomorrow, since if an emoji is tweeted on Friday, then the update is coming on Wednesday.

The only reason I could think of, as to why we haven't seen anything, is the fact that maybe this update ain't that big. Perhaps it's not this years BIG UPDATE. Maybe we don't get a big update this year, and it's just medium sized updates. I know it's a 5th anniversary update and all, and it's supposed to be big, but man it does not feel like it.

Come to think of it there could be another reason. This update could be so big, and unlike anything we have seen before, that if Sean released any cover art or trailer, people would LOSE THEIR MINDS..... who knows?

Can any ship be turned into max-slot/S-class now? [Question]

Fairly new to the game and reading online saw that a lot of hunting goes into finding the optimal ships - but it also seems like the game has been updated since to allow for class/slot upgrades

So my question is, is choosing a ship now just about aesthetics, since you can upgrade more aspects - or are there still ways in which some ships are intrinsically better than others in the same type?

Does anyone know how to achieve building bases that follow old english/castle-like architecture? [Discussion]

I've been trying to build a couple bases from ideas of old castles and manors, but I'm finding it a bit difficult to achieve.

I like to go on pinterest a lot and save any ideas for architecture that look nice for possible base-building in this game, but i'm learning that while i plan the build out, unless i upscale a lot of the structures, the building process restricts my ability to make it actually look like the original vision.

The first time i tried, it literally turned into a giant traffic cone. The interior was so much worse as well.

Do you or any youtubers you know of having any idea how to do that kind of building?

Grass draw distance [Question]

I know this is going to sound petty and stupid, but I've tried to get into the game a few times over the years and I have an issue with the grass draw distance.

I feel like a few years ago it was fine and I played quite a bit, but ended up dropping the game eventually. I tried again after one of the more recent large patches and the grass draw distance was abysmal. There was basically a small patch of grass around my character that only went about 20 feet in each direction and beyond that it was bare. I looked into it and that seemed to be the norm.

Has there been anything recently that has fixed this, or any mods that fix it?

I'm on PC with graphics cranked to the max.

Has the hype for Frontiers gone too far? [Discussion]

Sean has been stringing this out for three weeks and i fear its going to backfire on him and HG he has allowed the fanbase to create more hype and excitement than the update can possibly appease

That may not have been his intent but that's what's happened

Hell I've been wating 3 fucking weeks to start a new run because it made sense since the update was announced the day i was planning to start a fresh iteration....i was not expecting to still be waiting for it three weeks later since in my experience this kind of delay between first announcement and release is around 5 days

We need actual info instead of stupid fucking emojis and retweeting old shit to maybe cut the hype to reasonable levels cause its getting boring...hell even a release date would be nice instead of this Soon™ nonsense

Now if there's been issues that's understandable and inevitable a simple delay notification would be useful instead of this emoji nonsense that does nothing but stroke his ego

so am i right to think this emoji nonsense has gone on too long?

Finding Animals [Question]

I was reading on steam that there's a bug in regards to this, can anyone confirm? Because if it's bugged I would like to be able to move on from this quest.

Hello, NMS community!

It's been fun reading some wacky theories about Frontiers and seeing Sean's face being put on different assets in game.

But let's take a minute to remember that we don't know anything about this update. We don't know if it's big, if it addresses a long-standing problem, or if it's what people expect. There haven't been any promises for this update.

New to the game [Question]

I’ve recently had the urge to play NMS after joining this sub. I was one of the people who bought the game day of release as the hype was unreal only to be massively disappointed.

The game looks totally different now with so much more content to play through. I’ve seen multiple posts of bases and general exploration which has given me so many goals to aim for.

With the game being so vast and al the new content is there a general play style people enjoy?

End goal for me right now is to set up shop on a planet in a good system but don’t know where to start! Does this limit future exploration?

Playing on console for reference.

Generic Decals and better portal UI [Suggestion]

It's not a big deal, really, but I miss some generic decals for base customization.Really simple things like capital letters, greek letters and resource symbols.

Another suggestion would be add resource production or a custom short description in the portal interface, in order to remember what the base is producting.

What I want... [Discussion]

I see a lot of people out there saying they want a combat upgrade, or craftable ships, a traipse into void. When it comes down to it ( day 1 player here ) we really just need more variety. Ship variety, planet ( biome ) variety, flora/fauna variety. More things to discover in space and planetside. A reason to explore...to go it on foot. Maybe hidden language primers that teach multiple words. Or a decorative set of first gek battlearmor, Korvax collective hive robes...you get the picture. Once you hit Late game and have an s class fleet, 6 a class ships, 3 a class multi tools, all upgraded how you want, there is no reason to keep exploring. Sure maybe for that swap out ship, or a unique companion you like, but ultimately these are individual goals. I just want that feeling I had on my very first planet where I was so excited to run around discovering things I hadn't seen, locate places I'd never been. Until there are additions/upgrades to to assests available in proc gen or a proc gen overhaul, not matter what they add this feeling will never come back

Some optimism [Discussion]

So, we don’t know what Frontiers is gonna be. All we have is a name and (maybe) some hints from Sean. Not much to go off of.

A lot of us want proc gen improvements, myself included; and we gotta acknowledge that we might not get that in Frontiers.

But, here’s the optimism: it seems like now more of us are talking about the proc gen than ever. Most of us actually agree on it. And, given the way that HG tends to listen to their community? It’s only a matter of time before we see some sorta proc gen overhaul.

So if Frontiers is disappointing, keep your chins up! A better universe could be right around the corner.

Shop completely disappeared [Question]

Sooooo…I’ve been trying to research this and found some threads, but no consensus. I found a wreck and was going to scrap it using the method I’ve seen folks on here use: land my ship near it, build a teleported, claim the new ship, teleport to a station, scrap it, go back and claim my original ship.

Only, when I scrapped it and went back, my original ship was gone. Completely. Not moved, just…gone.

I was able to restore from a save, but is there a way to do this that I’m missing? If I fix up the wrecked ship and my original disappears, will it pop up when I get a freighter (I’m only about 20 hours in)?

Idea of time travel in new update? 👀 [Discussion]

I saw a comment talking about time travel and alternate dimensions. Ive thought about cities being a possibility, but other players reminded thats not plot-wise possible for the game, and it just doesnt make sense. But considering there are some people talking about reflections, mainly from the manner that sean is retweeting his posts. So, this is super outlandish, and probably way too out there, but its a fun idea. What if theres a story update that introduces either time travel or an alternate universe in which the Atlas does not exist, and cities or large settlements are more than possible? It could also implement a new species, etc.

It almost makes since if you consider the end of the story, where we discover that we cannot see Apollo or null irk because they arent in our reality.

So.... I appear to be stuck [Bug]

I just got my first freighter and saw that I could edit it. It showed me that I could delete the floor, which is nuts right what could possibly be underneath it ... turns out its space. Cold empty space.

Even if I could put the floor back there are now 2 things stopping me:

Theres no floor option in the build menu. And anytime I try to place something I'm 'too close' .

Are there any solutions here? I havent saved in a while.

Same abandonned freighter every time [Bug]

Hey, i recently started scavenging inside the abandonned freighters brought by the Desolation update.

my problem became evident when for the 3rd or 4th time in a row, i found myself scavenging in the exact same freighter.

Same environment, same enemies (even down to their exact position), same stories (to an extent. i always enter the commander terminal as "quartermaster Lef")

​

Is there a solution ? Am i just insanely unlucky (or... lucky ?) ? Is it a glitch ? Is it just a bad manipulation on my part ?

Half baked theory on the eyes emoji while we wait [Discussion]

Hopefully this isn't something everyone has already discussed but I haven't seen anyone talk about it yet. I think the eyes emoji is not about the eyes themselves but the fact that there are two of them. I also noticed Sean keeps retweeting himself, so there are two of each tweet. What "two" could reference I have no idea, maybe frontiers doubles the number of assets, doubles the size of the universe, allows us to clone plants, who knows. Curious if anyone else has ideas.

The ultimate suggestion [Meme]

They should add me to the game

I should be the expedition 3 reward.

When finishing expedition 3 it should be a bobble head of myself and Sean should personally hand craft me

With this bobblehead equipped your ship becomes controlled by and ai, which is me, and I will say iconic things such as "my ship now" and "Im watching you"

Once controlled the ships movements are randomized, and you can only hope to land somewhere.

If you drift off to far from the system (roughly 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 U) when the final light from the nearby sun starts to dwindle and blend in with the other stars, a giant version of my head will swallow your ship

Sean and the team if you are down for this idea I am right here and I can record voice clips for the Collab 👍

Waiting for THE update : 100 hours in Survival and 24 hours in Permadeath, I will (NOT) live forever 🥴 [Spoiler]

I often said I would NEVER start a new save...

But never say never!

In 100 hours in Survival I reached the level I got in 600 hours on my normal save with even 30 galaxies instead of 23.

Then I finally decided to have a look to Permadeath, only a few hours to see what is different.

Today I have 24 hours in that Permadeath save, reached the core of Euclid and jumped to Dimension Hilbert, achieving the Live Forever Graal🤓

And guess what?

NOTHING 😤

I'm glad it took me so few effort and time to achieve this and realize this was only a kind of joke🥳

In my experience Permadeath is VERY close to Survival, same inventory slots restrictions (From 250 up to 1000), you only have to adapt your strategy to minimize the risk of being killed...

So I don't think I will go much further in Permadeath.

Space… the final frontier [Discussion]

Like everyone, I’ve been thinking a lot about the Frontiers update. I know there’s been a lot of speculation, and it’s likely someone has posted this already and I’ve just missed it. But I’ve been thinking about what comes to mind for many when we hear the word “frontiers” associated with space. The infamous Star Trek opening monologue…

“Space… the final frontier.

These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise Its five year mission To explore strange new worlds To seek out 👀 new life And new civilizations To boldly go where no man has gone before”

Paired with the end of Sean’s blog post…

“In some ways [Frontiers] is just another update, but in other ways it’s a missing piece of the sci-fi fantasy that we’ve always wanted to add, and very fitting for our fifth anniversary”

I know, I know, others have made Star Trek connections already. And I know this is yet another post stringing together possible clues. Nothing really groundbreaking here but I just felt like saying something about these thoughts.

The two passages above, combine with previous rumors could all indeed point to cities and a new alien race being the big changes in Frontiers.

Hopefully we find out very soon.

The Secret of Gold [Information]

Let me tell you the secret of Gold.

In this time the most precious substance in the No Man's Sky universe is the asteroid mineral Gold. The Gold extends to Pyrite, the Pyrite expands to Ferrite, the Pyrite is vital to space travel.

Gold can fuel space ships. Gold be refined to Pyrite, which will fuel pulse drives, Living Ships will take Gold as is for their pulsing heart drive.

Gold can build bases. Gold can be refined to Pyrite which can be refined again into Ferrite, which can be refined again into Pure Ferrite and then Magnetized Ferrite. Thus fulfilling building needs.

Gold can provide any planet mineral you need(like Paraffinium for example). Gold can be refined to Pyrite which can be converted to any other planet mineral by combine refining it with Ferrite(which you can already get from refining Gold to Pyrite to Ferrite). The mineral conversion sequence goes: Pyrite to Paraffinium to Ammonia to Dioxite to Phosphorous to Uranium and then back to Pyrite.

Gold with Oxygen can create plant life. Take the aforementioned mineral conversion and then add Oxygen and you have that planet's indigenous plant life. Example: Dioxite refines with Oxygen to Frost Wart.

Gold can be converted to Silver. Gold refines to Pyrite. Pyrite refines to Ferrite which refines to Pure Ferrite. Pyrite can be combined with Pure Ferrite into Dirty Bronze. Dirty Bronze refines into Silver.

Gold can give you nanites. Gold can be converted to Silver. Gold refines to Pyrite. Pyrite refines to Ferrite which refines to Pure Ferrite. Pyrite can be combined with Pure Ferrite into Dirty Bronze. Dirty Bronze refines into Silver. Gold can be refined with Silver to create Platinum. Platinum can be refined into nanites directly. Alternatively Platinum, Silver, and Gold can be refined together into nanites with a different ratio.

Gold is everywhere. In space, found in asteroids. In the oceans, Living...

All I want from NMS is the blackness of space [Suggestion]

I love NMS. Over 500hrs and I still continue to play. Although I've done just about everything, the one thing I enjoy most is simply flying around in my starship. The solitude, the freedom... It's truly a meditative experience. I love knowing that I'm truly alone on space. Yet somehow, I know I'm not. There's simply way to much light and color. Bright greens and blues in every system remind me that the next planet is just a hyper jump away. I wish the skies were darker. I'd love to stop suddenly during a hyper jump and find myself in the middle of nowhere. Just pure darkness with nothing but the sun and stars in the distance. Imagine running out of fuel and hoping an asteroid floats by so you can scrape enough Trideum to get to a space station. Imagine having to call a friend or AI and waiting for the rescue to come and refuel you. Despite building several bases and having a freighter with multiple rooms, a farm and a chef's kitchen, my starship is my home. It's where I spend most of my time. Please give me some dark skies.

How to make money...the easy way. [Discussion]

I had 100 mil and 25k nanits 3 hours after starting a new game.

I started out with 500 credits, 14 salvage data and my starter ship.

It's stupid easy. Get to your second system....cause then you have warp. All you need is your starter ship, and about 400k credits, which is easy to get, just farm up some salvage data and then sell it. How it works is this...so when you exchange a ship with a npc in a space station they're supposed to go to your ship. Well I discovered I could run back to them and claim my old ship. For free.

So I did. I scrapped it, sold the parts and you sell the modules to the module vendor for nanits.

So you rinse repeat this, eventually you will move up to B class ships to scrap, all the while keeping the most expensive one to trade. The reason is eventually you will be getting ships for 0 dollars because they don't out match your current ship.

Then you move up to A class, by this time hopefully you have found a big ass hauler, they are worth a lot. So you trade, reclaim, and eventually your claiming six at a time. Scrapping, selling, nanits and credits are rolling in.

I sat and did this for 3 hours. I went to the anomaly and learned every pattern in the game for everything from ships to statis capsules or whatever they are called.

Now you could in theory do this with a class but they are never expensive to get oddly enough. I got one, and had so many nanits that I was able to max out it's modules and all my gear with s class stuff.

And my save is only maybe 6 hours old.

And I have purposely not talked to nada. So technically I'm still on the very starting quests...lol

Droids in NMS [Discussion]

I’m imagining a droid system in nms similar to the robot workshop in Fallout 4. You can make or obtain heads, torsos, arms, and legs from the various kinds of robots and put them together to create a companion that will fight alongside you and have inventory space. The different body parts would all have different upgrades and utilities that come with them.

You could send them out to obtain specific resources or to find buildings/artifacts. Maybe if you have a place for them on your ship they could be a turret that attacks targets while you’re lining up a shot on them. Otherwise they could be summoned like animal companions.

I’m imagining being able to have like 3 at a time and taking on guarded outposts. You can send one to the door to break it while you and the other two droids defend. Idk they’d have to flesh out a good combat system to get the most of it but it’s a fun thought.

the protoflyer size limit [Discussion]

hi: a long while ago I stumbled onto a protoflying fauna that resembled a flying fish. I took one with me and obtained an egg. I then proceeded to attempt to change the look via the egg sequencer to no results. it was the same shape, same look: the only change being the size and color.

this led me to continue enlarging him until he hit a max limit of 3 meters. meaning I can only make it around 4 times larger than the original species.

this of course got me wondering what the largest fish protoflyer found would be.

if anyone has ever found one of these little guys, or have one as a pet, please comment below what the largest one you've ever found is (before sequencing). I'm on a mission to obtain one that is very large

How well the game has evolved [Discussion]

When the game first was released, Hello Games opened up an e-mail address to gather feedback for the game. I sent them my ideas and suggestions in September of 2016, and looking back at the mail I'm really amazed that pretty much everything I wished for back then is now already a part of the game. It's really cool looking back just how far we've come!

Hello Games really have gone above and beyond all expectations, even when they were sometimes unreasonably high. Did anyone else also send them feedback back in the day, and did the game evolve in the direction you had hoped for?

My e-mail below for anyone interested: Dear Hello Games, First of all I would like to say that I am really enjoying No Man's Sky. I think you did an amazing job and I cannot wait to see what the future holds. I would like to use this opportunity to share some of my ideas with you. I know you are a small team, and my ideas may be a bit too ambitious to realize, but I will share them either way because maybe they will add on to the vision you have for the future of No Man's Sky. Some stuff I came up with: 1. If you guys are adding in base building in the future, it would add a great new aspect to the game. It would however also kind of stop players from exploring. This is why I think it would be cool if you could set a home world. It would basically allow you to find your dream planet, where you can then build a base and create some sort of portal. This would allow you to teleport between where you left off and your home world. People can explore, and still come back to their own home. 2. Bundled with the previous idea, I think it would be cool if players could actually use their discoveries. If you discover a really cool type of tree, wouldn't it be great if you could then add that tree to your home world? You could explore the universe and find the strangest creatures and plants, then go back to your home...

While I am curious about the Frontiers update, I need to ask: What is the long term appeal of NMS?

I got the game on initial release, have 485h on Steam (about 110h on my current game) and I'm worn out. I finally got to the center a few days ago, went to the other galaxy, etc. and I see no point in going on (but I see a lot of other people do). I actually only went to the center cos I had nothing else to do.

After establishing a Stasis Device farm and building ~6B credits worth of stock (~50h mark), the game lost most of it's appeal. I can buy anything, the only thing preventing me from having more money is that the wallet is limited to a 32bit long (~4B credits). My ship and gear are so tricked out to the point that there is no more challenge. I complete multiplayer Nexus missions by myself in 20-30 minutes. I've probably bought and scrapped >40 starships and never had less than 500B credits in my wallet. And all that before I crossed the 70k lightyear barrier to the center.

What I did enjoy doing is giving people stacks of Stasis Devices at the Nexus, but I found that there are very few takers.

I do like the game, I just don't know what to do next that is an actual challenge or surprise (or something that isn't incredibly samey, like the agent missions). I think I've completed all the story missions (I never got the Living Ship mission though. I chose not to reset the galaxy. Maybe I should try resetting?). I haven't maxed out my milestones, but chasing that gets boring after a while because there's no benefit besides better missions that give me useless items, a nanites that I no-longer have use for, or money I don't need.

Ideas?

NOTE: Sorry if this seems a bit jumbled, it is a bit stream-of-consciousness. And also apologies if it sounds braggy, that's not the intent either.

When should i play again? [Question]

I haven’t played no mans sky for a bit and I wanted to play it again. But then I realised that there will be a update where everyone is exited for. So my question is: should I start playing the game now again or after the update? I don’t have any good old save files so I think I’ll just make a new one.

Frigates stuck at expeditions after Frontiers update [Bug]

I've just updated my game, logged in to debrief my Fleets. When I click debrief, the debrief screen opens for 1 second and closes, and it gives me all the awards from expedition. I have same problem for all my 5 fleets. Also, when I go to the guy that we send fleets to expeditions, his menu opens only for 1 second and I get kicked again from the menu. I saved the game and reloaded, same thing kept happening, I even still receive the rewards! So I'm stuck here with 5 fleets bugged in expedition with them keep giving infinite amount of expedition rewards. Do you guys think there is a way to fix it?

My friend got there first and took over the settlement, and now i can't do that. The game wants me to become mayor, but that's not possible, and i can't find a way to reset the mission. What the hell do i do?

we have not gotten a new cover art work. This is one of the biggest indicators that this is not the big one.

Is there any way to have the HUD rotate with you when you turn your head? Or to stop it from clipping through the ground when going up uneven terrain?

And is there any way to get rid of the warning that pops up when you “leave your play area”? It pops up even if I’m just squatting down to take a closer look at something.

I would say... [Discussion]

Greetings fellow travelers,

I've only been in this 'verse since last November but find it and the community enchanting. As a prior MMORPG player (yes, prior) I left a top tier raid guild for the peace and solitude of space and was met with wonder and amazement. Much of my play is 'solo'. It is more my nature, however I enjoy the creations of others, and smile at the varying degrees of generosity in the Nexus. Yes, I know some is for glitching, but the abject generosity bestowed upon some makes me smile and remember when someone dumped a bunch of tainted metal in my inventory, and I had not a clue what it was, except I was suddenly 'rich'.

So Now I am waiting for the latest update, Frontiers I assume, and I am content. Regardless of content, I know I will be pleased and amazed.

I do not know how Hello Games continues to finance this grand endeavor, but I am grateful. And yes, I would sub to help ensure its continued success and growth, though I also know the absence of subs contributes greatly to its playability for people around the world and that is part of its wonder: That after post purchase, the game continues its amazing journey without any requests for subs, or in-game purchases, or such.

Steve, wherever you are, bless you.

Patricia, aka Puzzleheaded. :)

I'm in a system with 2 very nice paradise planets and a hellhole. So naturally, the distress beacon comes from the hellhole.

This is all speculation, of course, but something feels fishy about this right now.

-patch launches on PC without any word of it.

-really cool content and tech under the hood update, but seems a bit small for 5 years anniversary maybe?

Perhaps we will be surprised with even more updates in a second update?

What was actually added? I can't play it yet and to my knowledge it still isn't out for consoles anyways. [Question]

From what I've gleaned there seems to be a new "settlement system" and procedural settlements? Is more to it than that? (Not that that soundd bad, adds more depth to planetary exploration and adds groundwork for some pretty cool ways it could be grown in the future.)

Also so far it seems like some of the early speculations weren't too far off lol. I'm just glad it wasn't all about multicrew ships to be used in multiplayer like some people speculated XD

Um... I guess now I wait (Frontiers first impression) [Information]

Download done I was excited to try the new update, after building the office and meeting a couple of people I was instructed to use the terminal to construct a landing pad. I thought "awesome, now we can build this and get new visitors and traders maybe". Nope, the wait time is 4 hours to build this thing. So I thought I would go look around and see what other things I could do. Most buildings are empty at the moment and there isn't interactions with any npc I talked to. Sent a few citizens on an expedition since I guess they were bored and wanted to get out, so I'll wait for that to see what happens.

​

Overall, not much to do yet, except to wait. Maybe they will add additional things in the future or I'll find something else to do besides look at empty buildings and wait for things to get built. But at least they have some interesting new items that maybe we can use for construction.

Don’t get me wrong, I like all the updates whatever it was living ships or construction ones but I think the whole spirit of no mans sky was and still is exploration, visiting weird alien planets, spotting breathtaking views of the vast universe. I like building small bases on some planets I wouldn’t normally have other reason to come back to cuz I always felt like Nomad but with how the procedural planets work makes it less hmm random and original? If it is a specific type of planet it will always have the same looking plants with a bit of variation on them, we rly need more models for the game engine to go truly crazy, and please bring back the crazy terrain and colors like the old versions had

Appreciation post to HG for another amazing free update! [Appreciation]

Frontiers has dropped and it is beyond my wildest expectations! After 16 free major updates by a small indie team, I thought it'd be best not to buy into the hype surrounding Frontiers. But, as it turns out, the hype was well-lived! It brought THE two features I wanted the most (but thought were least likely to be developed): cities and revamped building.

​

Small team. Indie team. Free updates. No DLC. No microtransactions. Just talent and passion. This is how it should be. How can we thank HG and reward them for this player-centric business model? Here's a list of ideas, to be expanded with your input:

​

  1. Buy yourself a new game;

  2. Buy a new game and gift it to a friend (same financial reward as above, but with added bonus of increased playerbase);

  3. Buy HG merch: https://freshmerch.fm/collections/hello-games

  4. Spread the word on social media about this amazing game;

  5. Rate the game favourably, for example on Steam;

​

What other ways can we thank HG? Which of these will you pledge to enact? I pledge #2.

Low-Flying companion flight controls (PS4/PS5) [Question]

Hey everyone, since the new companions addition I've made it a goal of mine to find the most interesting flying pets. Only thing is, I cannot seem to change the altitude of said pet. It will only move horizontally not vertically and this causes problems when trying to navigate rough terrain. My pet will fly INTO the terrain with me on it, instead of going up and maintaining a constant height above ground.

I've done a lot of searching online for a workaround to this but cant find anything. Is it just not possible to alter vertical movement with pets? If so that seems like a very disappointing lack of simple coding...

Any "Fast Start" tips for starting a new save but avoiding, as much as possible, the tedium of the opening stages of the game? [Discussion]

I like to play the normal game mode, even though I know creative mode would get me past what I'm talking about here.

What I really wish is that I could start a new save that plays the game normally (not creative, not perma-death), but which doesn't have me go through the entire process of step by step doing little fetch quests until I can finally warp travel. I'd love to be able to just warp out the moment I start.

If there's a way to do so I'm not aware of, please let me know!

But barring that (and I assume there's not a way to skip that stuff), I'm looking for any "fast-start" shortcuts or tips you know of, to help get through that part of the game as quickly as possible so I don't end up getting bored and putting the game down before I've really even started.

I told you guys, not the big annual update. [Information]

Let's look at the big yearly update checklist shall we?

Did it have a trailer 5 days before launch? No

Did it show cover art 5 days before launch? No

Does it add new things to every aspect of the game? No

Has Sean pinned it on Twitter? No

Has hello games made it their banner? No

Is it marketing the game as a whole like Next, Beyond and Origins? No

Is it the cover art for the game? No

Does it feel like a new chapter? No.

Does it tie into lore hints about boundary failures, and the void? Which have been teased all year? No.

Does it have ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE STATION CORE FOR GOODNESS SAKE..... No

Did it bring something to the table for everyone? No

The patch notes are super long don't get me wrong, however they do not need to be that long. About 80% is just telling you stuff you can do in your settlement.

This update is basically like desolation, since desolation was 2.6, just before 3.0 origins. This update is 3.6, just before 4.0 [REDACTED].

In conclusion, this is basically desolation. So next update will most likely be 4.0, probably coming this winter or late fall. If city builders are your thing then good for you, I hope you have fun! But for others that just aren't into that, it's okay to skip this update and wait for 4.0 since this update isn't the whole game now.

I hope you traveller's enjoy yourselves. I'll see you in 4.0. Sean pls give us void and add danger.

As an explorer I'm disappointed but I have some ideas! [Suggestion]

I was hoping if we ever got an update that featured towns/cities that they would be self-sustained settlements that we can just visit, have some unique experiences like quests/events and merchants with products you can only find in those settlements and then move on. The wait time for building construction makes it feel like a crappy mobile game that forces you to stay put if you want your town to grow which is the antithesis of exploration. If you like that, that's great, it's just the opposite of what I and other explorers wanted.

Maybe there is a happy medium somewhere down the road? Maybe at baseline they could be what explorers wanted. Like... there's an AI overseer if the settlement isn't owned by a player. Then if players want they can take over and expand/rebuild them as they see fit. Or perhaps explorer types could "preserve" a town. Claim it as a permanent AI run settlement. That way if they really like it they can revisit later without a player having taken it over and changing it from what they remembered.

That would be neat. That way if you just want to visit you can still have a fun experience and move on. But, then if you find another player's town/city with those unique experiences it could be something really special. Perhaps they could even make the experience more unique. Allow overseers to put out requests (quests), perhaps even select their own rewards (within reason) and other players can fulfill them. Have the overseers stock their merchants with select products. Then each town would be memorable even for visitors. Like, "Oh, yeah, that's the town with all the cafes and lots of unique art and furniture for sale." and "That's where I helped fight off some sentinels to protect the town and they gave me a new multitool. Or the overseer asked me to go to another system to find a rare resource for him and gave me a discount at all the...

What should be next to compliment Frontiers - COMBAT [Suggestion]

A LAND COMBAT OVERHAUL

Make multi tool combat more interesting with more robust customization of weapons and their combat prowess.

More importantly, however, the game absolutely needs more intense land-based combat. The Walker and Quad sentinels are incredibly easy to defeat so the Sentinel threat is laughable after a few hours.

With multiple new types of more dangerous sentinels, certain planets (and even Settlement raids) can be more devastating than ever!

Hints and What's Coming in NMS 4.0 [Discussion]

This update is impressive. Even with some minor complaints from people who dislike base building, we have to agree that the amount of work that Hello Games put into this update is huge.

Not only base building was completely revamped, but this new mechanic of settlements it's refreshing and side-quest element of great fun.

But this leads to the next huge update. The Space Station New Terminal wasn't in this new update. We have to agree that something more deep and profound in this exact moment it's being architectured for Hello Games for the 4.0 update.

I bet in more storyline, something that is untouched since Atlas Rises, with lots of new mechanics involved.

As a launch day casual player, should I bite the bullet and start a new file? [Discussion]

I've been playing NMS since launch day, with about 100hrs play time. Most of that play time was pre foundations, where I became dummy rich via gravatino farming. Since then, I hop in at every new update and play around. I always have a good time and it's been thrilling to watch this game and community grow.

With that, I feel like I should abandon my day one save for a fresh file. I think what keeps me from playing rather than playing around. My mind is still rooted in the "old ways". I'm having a hard time letting go though, as I get quite attached to my game characters (I still have my original ps1 memory cards).

But am I really missing out? I did the atlas question when they came out. I founded my base, build vehicles, went under water, all of.it. I've experienced most of the things NMS has put in, but not as one fluid session. Just disjointed over the course of 5 years. I want to experience NMS fully, but I just don't want to leave my f̶r̶i̶e̶n̶d̶ Traveler behind.

PS5 version still BROKEN! (Flickering and HDR bugs) [Bug]

Video of the issue

Really disappointed to see that this known issue has not been addressed.

For those of you who don't know, there is a known issue on PS5 where the entire game just flickers. It's most obvious on space stations where you can see just about every edge flickering, but every object, surface and edge flickers at a different rate. It's very unpleasant. My guess is that it's a TAA issue and it's constantly using the wrong data to reconstruct the image, due to the image occasionally "snapping back" to looking normal for a split second before breaking down. The video should show this

There is also a problem with the HDR. It's overly aggressive to the point that colours are blown out and display incorrectly (e.g. pale blue snow turning bright purple as it gets brighter). This is a common error in HDR rendering where hue is not preserved with increasing brightness. You can see this on the attached video - when the ships take off and the engines light up the engines get more saturated. This is not the way it looks with HDR disabled.

Neither of these problems are present running the PS4 version under backwards compatibility on the same machine. It's just that the PS5 version is broken. And has been since the next gen update. I love this game, played it since launch, but I can't play it like this. The way the image breaks apart and moves makes me feel quite motion sick and the garish, broken colours don't help.

PLEASE, PLEASE fix this, Hello Games. I was hoping this update might finally fix it but no.

If anybody else has experienced these issues please add your experiences to this thread.

Settlement progress BLOCKED because of a BUG [Bug]

Am kinda frustrated because of this...i cannot do anything with my settlement currently. There are no new decisions, no new disputes because i cannot build a fucking building.

So one of the decisions is to build a standard house which increases population or something else which increases productivity. I choose the standard house.

To build that you first need 140 ferrite to build the Basic Structure of the house. This takes 45 minutes. Currently after the 45 minutes passed it requires you to give 140 ferrite again and the countdown starts again.

So i currently cannot proceed with my settlement it seems. Anyone else experienced this or anything similar? Maybe any solution?

So we're still waiting on 3 more smaller updates (3.7 to 3.9) to get added to the game before the big 4.0 update. [Discussion]

The thing is will we get these 3 updates this year or will 4.0 come next year?

You would expect the 4.0 update to come this year considering the 3.0 origins update released last September. With 6 smaller updates releasing from then until now with the frontiers 3.6 update today.

So I'm wondering if HG are going to ramp up the release of these smaller updates with 3.7 to 3.9 coming before Christmas. And 4.0 being a big Christmas update.

Or they might just randomly throw out 4.0 before the summer next year. Possibly in the spring of 2022.

It's hard now to speculate what they are planning for the road map leading up to the release of the 4.0 update and when that will be.

Manufacturing Facilities bugged. Not able to get blueprints. [Bug]

Started a new run for Frontiers and doing my usual exploring the first planet before going into space. One thing I like to do is grab the blueprint chain for superconductors or cryopumps so I can craft higher value items and get some early cash going. I get these from the manufacturing facilities I find as I'm flying around.

Looks like the Frontiers update has bugged the recipes menu. You can solve the puzzle and choose to get nanites or a MT upgrade slot with no issues, but if you try to learn a new recipe, the menu flashes on the screen for a split second and then you're stuck. The game just shows the factory terminal but you can't move. You can open the build menu, and your inventory (and see that you got the override modules), but you can't do anything. Only solution is to reload.

I've tried 3 facilities with the same results. Korvax system (I've not left the starting planet, so haven't been able to check Vy'keen or Gek facilities). PC, Steam version.

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this before I toss it to the zendesk.

FYI You can only oversee ONE settlement [Information]

If you got your hopes up of owning multiple different settlements on different planets, I have bad news for you.

Only one settlement can be managed much like a freighter. What I recommend is seeing the first settlement you get from a quest and make judgements from there right off the bat.

Settlements have quests that involve pouring resources and time into. If you're unhappy with the location of your first settlement, you can buy a chart from a station cartographer. Use it on a planet you wish to see a settlement for better odds.

Long term indicators with frontier update: why I’m not excited about the update for now, but I am excited for what it might mean [Discussion]

Not terribly excited about the immediate ramifications of this update. Doesn’t seem on the surface like that much in the way of what I was hoping for, particularly with exploration.

It looks like it will be interesting for a few hours but then it’s back to the same old thing.

HOWEVER…what has me excited is more about where the development paradigm might be shifting to. It lays the foundation for potentially MASSIVE user generated content.

Rather than overhauling their proc gen to create all the content we would want, perhaps they are pivoting to turning the users into the procedural generators.

Wishlist item to have massive cities, for example. What’s easier…developing these cities to jive with the current engine, which to my limited understanding seems pretty daunting, or adapting the game to make the player base create the massive cities themselves?

Maybe not. Maybe it’s just more fluff. But it could be the precursor to some pretty incredible future updates.

Good update, but.... [Discussion]

There are just some immersive qualities that are just missing. One im on an extreme storm planet and even when the storm comes and temps are jear the 300's seem like ally settlers dont mind staying outside. You would think they would run to take shelter or something. Secondly when the sentinel attack im literally the only one fighting them. There arent many so i get it in a sense, but you would think the settlers would be more reactive to the sentinel attacks and either help or take cover whilst i battle it out. Nope they just stand there. Also what if i dont want to be the overseer of the settlment they start me out with? Wasnt the particular planet i wanted so i guess ill just finish the mission and abandon them for the planet i truely want?? I like the concept and idea greatly dont get me wrong.

Deeper Space Exploration and Rewards [Discussion]

Coming back to this game after a while, still not sure where I want to start. I've been waiting and waiting but still, even after all the updates (Which are mostly great,) I still have yet to see them flesh out space itself. This is one of the only games out there that actually has a functional (if not rudimentary) space exploration mechanic to it. Let's take a break from planets and focus on space...I know a lot of people agree with me here.

To make it more interesting, take into account these ideas(Some mine and some were borrowed from others.)

More Biological space creatures (friendly and hostile)

Better Asteroid Mining mechanics

Gas Mining

Ship Customization

Variation on crashed landed ships to explore (Planet side)

Astro Scanning focused ships and/or devices (used to locate typically unreachable until found, pockets of space or systems that could include:)

  • Alien Megastructures

  • Rare ship finds

  • Derelict stations that you can explore and get rare loot

  • Rare material Asteroids to mine

  • Dense(rare) Gas pockets to mine

  • Combat areas(Pirates...but why?)

  • Rare Visuals (Quasars, Pulsars, Etc.)

  • Trapped/Derelict Ships

  • Dying Stars/Supernova mechanics

  • Rare relics and data

  • Astrozoology

  • Gravimetric Distortions (Wormholes, Black Holes, Special Systems, Etc.)

Existing players who come back after big updates: Do you find it difficult to start all over again form the beginning, but do you also feel lost and like you’ve missed out if you try to carry on from your original save? Therefore leaving yourself in a bit of a NMS limbo? How do you deal with this? [Discussion]

I’ve been a NMS player probably since Pathfinder, but I think I finally put the game down around the time Beyond came around. Not sure why, just something that occurred.

I’ve attempted to come back a couple of times when updates have arrived but at this point it seems like my original save is from such an old era of the game that I feel I’ve skipped over so much content and can’t quite get back into it.

On the flip side, when I decide to just start all over again I tend to get a bit bummed that I’m back with my C class weapons and ship, scanning animals for 100s of units instead of 100,000s of units. Needing to unlock every single base item all over again. I can’t do it!

So yeah. I love the game but I find myself in limbo. Not wanting to start again, but feeling lost in my original save.

FEATURE REQUEST: Show us the number of base parts used [Suggestion]

Yesterday I submitted a feature request to HG. I think travelers who focus on base building should be able to see total parts used, and parts used per base.

I'm a console player (PS4 Pro), and I can't evaluate the game as a programmer, but I suspect at the very least it should be easy to compute the total number of parts and parts by base by doing a simple field count in the database. This could happen during loading or on-demand with a button to run new calculations.

While a list of bases and parts on one screen would be ideal, I'd be thrilled with a total count in the game menu as well as seeing a per-base count (or button to produce a count) when viewing individual base computers. But even just total parts would be huge. I'm afraid I'm getting close to the save file limit, and I'm compromising my builds because I don't want to run out mid-build.

I understand PC gamers have ways to view these numbers, but PS/XB don't have a way, or at least I haven't seen it after ~500 hr playtime. Can someone with more knowledge of the game infrastructure shed light on this?

Tip: You can build new structures using the old color palettes. [Build]

Figured this out on accident when playing with the new building UI. Select a new structure (like an alloy wall), switch to editing mode, edit the color of an older item (like cuboid room), then switch back to placing the first item. When you place the new item, it will be in the color palette of the older item. Great way to have new structures match your existing builds.

what do you think? [Question]

I'm just starting to play the update and I can't stop thinking about something, don't you find it disappointing that you can't build in the settlements? That is to say, you can decide what you want to build but you cannot actively participate in anything, you cannot even build a small house or decorate the streets, I hoped they would let us locate the buildings so that it would not look like a dotted with meaningless houses.

I could swear it used to be a medium blue but now it's like a light cyan/aqua color, the contrast is noticeably higher, and "unscanned" things are much more noticeable than they used to be.

About changing settlements... [Question]

So.. I started the game after updating and launched into space. Immediately I got a mission for helping a settlement and now is asking me to take control as part of the quest. The problem is I don't want to be the overseer of this settlement. I want a gek settlement in another system. I travelled to another system through a portal, to check if I could reset the quest somewhere else but apparently it's stuck there.

I just wanna know if after accepting being an overseer of that settlement I can quit and start in another settlement or I'm stuck with vykeens?

But its in the middle of an ocean, 15 minutes drive in the nautilus and almost 50 minutes swim from the closest land.

I assume I am not actually expected to just drive forward for 15 minutes. Am I missing something? Is there a way for me to land on the sea or use the multitool to create a platform from the ship?

Bugs in the update [Bug]

Same with the mission debrief from frigate expeditions, even though you still get the items (havent tried to launch them yet) If you leave the area where your settlement is, you may lose progress on ongoing builds. I had to resubmit the same material three times when the timer reset. Cuboid rooms built before the update as two-story open areas insert flooring where not interrupted by another existing object.

Was watching a vid about Star Citizen 3.14... Then an NMS Frontiers trailer came on afterward [Discussion]

Had zero info about the update, didnt even know it went live yet wen I had my headphones in and that music kicked on. As soon as I saw "Procedural Interiors" i got giddy. By the time I was watching the end and the possibilities of where it can take us, and how just like any other tech in this game, it will consistently be improved upon. I dunno what it is about these trailers, but they always give me goose bumps lol!

Out of Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, and No Mans Sky, I never thought that it would be NMS to make such amazing leaps. Sure... Star Citizen has some amazing simulation tech to the point of the crysis/lumberyard engine being unrecognizable in its current StarEngine state. But they also spent $345,000,000 from backers !!

NMS is the underdog, and the underdog is on top thesse days. It's well deserved, of that much I am certain.

A quick fix if you're stuck in a dialogue and can't move (bug) [Bug]

I have noticed that after the new update, there's been a few instances where I have gotten stuck and can no longer move around, forcing me to close out of the game. I managed to avoid this twice now by going into exotic decorations (up on d-pad on ps4/5), then edit placed parts (square) and then the new menu will pop up. From there, I toggled the camera with L3 and then backed out of all of this, back to the actual game. No save loss, just business as usual.

​

Hope this helps. Sometimes I don't save for a grip so I lost quite a bit the other three times I had to force quit out of the game. I'd post a video, but getting stuck is sporadic and I hadn't thought of sharing this until just now. Good luck!

A few thoughts on settlements [Discussion]

I like the idea a lot, but I feel it could use some tweaks to make it a lot of fun.

​ Multiple Settlements: I feel that being limited to a single settlement (and it will probably be a C class) is pretty limiting and doesnt take advantage of the procedural engine. The idea of an empire sounds awesome, but this is just being a mayor. Getting out of Debt: this is frustrating, all I want to do is quickly build buildings to turn my C class settlement into something that isn’t drowning in debt. Yet, inspite of my vast resources and wealth, I am limited to the pace of building that the overseer console sets. I built my first building and now I have to wait days for another chance to build another. Meanwhile, the settlement goes 100k in debt every day. By time I’m positice, it’ll take a very long time to be out of debt. More interaction: I’ve noticed NMS has become very abstract lately with some of the newer elements like settlements and fleets. While it is cool on the surface, you are so far removed from the actual activity that it doesnt have much to do with it. I came back to play the update, and playing the update involves me either skipping ahead in time to do another settlement update (if available) or aimlessly doing stuff to kill time in and out of the game. I just feel there can be so much more here. Maybe even go attack someone else’s settlement. I dont know, just feels empty.

​

This isn’t me hating the update, I love the concept. It just doesnt feel fleshed out.

I don't think Frontier is the big yearly update. [Discussion]

You probably would call me a nutcase. It would appear to be obvious that it IS the big yearly update : it's always been released at around this time of year (summer) and have been teased before release the same way beyond and origin where.

BUT !

If beyond was the 2.0 version, and origin the 3.0 version, Frontier is the 3.6 version and not the 4.0. Moreover, the Hello Game twitter account hasn't updated it's banner to display a Fronter artwork and still shows the Origin artwork.

This and the fact that Frontier is definitly a smaller update than the other yearly updates. Here's what Origin introduced :

-New creature type

-New biomes

-New meteo effects

-New planets with new landscape styles

-Archives

You could break it down as a massive exploration update. Exploration is definitly one of the major sides of the game and the update definitly affected the game experience of every single player. Same can be done with beyond :

-Introduced the Anomaly

-Massive multiplayer

-Electronic for base building

-Creature interactions

-Cooking

-VR support

Compared to that, Frontier feels very one-sidded with a focus on the specific mecanic of settlements management and base building overhaul. New content outside of this is very minor or quality of life. Of course, the towns are a big deal and a long awaited feature. But it feels more on the scale of a companion, desolation or expedition update, that is the introduction of one big mecanic to the game. It's not really a life-changer (except for new base building) for everyone and a player could probably pass by the settlement mecanic and have a rather unchanged game experience.

What are your thoughts ?

And don't mistake me, I freakin love Frontier. I've wanted for a long time now to be able to create colonies that I would have to take care of and protect from sentinels.

Hey everyone. Playing on Series X.

I booted up the update and immediately followed the mission to take over a settlement. I built the overseer office, then started construction on the tower and solved some disputes. However I really didn't like the planet, so I went to find one on my home planet. I found a perfect place and took over the settlement, and built the overseer office. However, that's it. That's all I can do. Now my settlement status just says "running smoothly" and won't give me anything else to build or do. Anybody else experiencing this?

Starship updates [Suggestion]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - we really need a starship update.

I realize the community is torn between the concept of building your own ship and being stuck with the never-ending search for the ship you want, but honestly I think we need new ship parts, in general. Our starships are the vessels that grant us the ability to venture between the stars, and it'd be really nice to see a lot more variety in the available parts - especially when you look at the original concept art for all the ship types, and the pre-release screenshots. I feel as though those ships had a lot more 'personality'.

Sean, I beseech thee - Please update the existing designs, and add new ships, or new ship parts to the proc-gen system so we can get even more variety out of our primary mode of transportation! NMS is about exploration, and we spend SO much time in our spacecraft...our ships should really be a focal point of the game!

We can only have one settlement at a time? [Question]

I’ve been using settlement maps from Space Stations to fly around and set up multiple locations since waiting 8 hours to build one thing was taking too long. I figured I would keep busy maintaining several settlements.

Then I went to a teleporter and was shocked to see that I only have access to one!

*Not complaining, just surprised that I wiped out the progress on the others by establishing a few.

Just popped into the Anomaly to spunk all my saved up salvaged data on the new base goodies and there must have been literally a dozen players crammed in around the terminal cashing all their stuff in! Was like a frigging Black Friday sale or something!! :)

Yeah, update (frontiers) all installed and the latest base I built out of cuboids has glitches and wires where there were none before. Flooring no longer fits where it did and as for the new way of building its DEFINITELY going to take some getting used to.

Issue with the Freighter... [Bug]

Hey there!

I have just got my first freighter, and am trying to sort something out, it just did its first expedition mission thing, and then when i collect stuff the dialogue box or option to get another job shows and then instantly goes away without me pressing any button, then i get some random clicks sound after (specifically when using the Command Center). I have this as a permadeath world and dont want to lose all my progress, I had verified game files many times, but to no solution.

If there is anything I can do, or if there is anything I can do to help elaborate more then I am happy to give as much as I can!

Many thanks!

About settlements and where you can have them [Question]

I was going to this planet that is very populated wich is a planet with alot of bases from before and i wanted to make a settlement there , i used a settlement chart while on this planet, but it leaded me to another persons settlement on this planet.

So my question is, are there only allowed with only one settlement pr planet? If so its so sad.

Also my settlement chart was just a waste to use then.

A letter to Hello Games [Discussion]

So I've been playing No Man's Sky since April 2019. It was on sale when I bought it on Xbox. I'm a person who'd followed the game right from the beginning, listened to all the interviews, watched the trailers, the demo's and saw it on release only to realise it's nowhere near as compelling or realistic as we were told it was and as pre-release footage had led us to believe.

Now I don't presume to know much at all about the complications or difficulties developers have to overcome to make such a game and I'm assuming there's a reasonable explanation for the discrepancies, but not knowing (technically) why the game is not at all like what was shown in trailers is bugging me no end.

I went in to the game knowing nothing at all about any updates apart from base building and vehicles being added.

Since then I have scrutinized it in every respect, as I never had this opportunity before to really form my own opinions about it.

I was pleasantly surprised at the progress that had been made and when Beyond dropped, I was blown away by the amount of additional content and changes and improvements that had been made. It was very impressive indeed.

Every update has introduced a new feature to the game that contributes to the bigger picture and achieving this vision of creating a compelling digital universe with a high degree of fidelity, whilst maintaining that art style of semi-retro science fiction.

But in my view there's one major issue. We're lacking that high degree of fidelity that is integral to realising this vision. And it's not just the reflections or the simple special effects, or the way the rain refracts light or how animals no-clip through objects. It's more fundamental than that. It's the smoke and mirrors. The fact that we use a sky box, that there's no physical stars in the systems, that water doesn't flow, there's a down in space, you can't hover in your ship and...

Can someone explain to me, what the new save system entails? [Question]

In the patch notes they say "A new save streaming system has been implemented", followed by "As this new save system changes the format of save data, all existing saves have been automatically backed up.".

What does this mean exactly? Is there some kind of incompatibility of existing saves with the new features?

Game crashes whenever I exit ship (PS4) [Bug]

I just picked up the game today since it's on sale, and within an hour through, my game keeps crashing whenever I exit my ship. I've tried to leave the area before exiting, I've tried waiting a few seconds before exiting after landing, but nothing seems to work. Is there a common fix for this sort of thing? All I've found is to go through the game files and do some stuff, but being on ps4 that isnt an option for me.

I am devastated and need to vent [Discussion]

That mission "Dreams of the Deep"... Oh man... The crashed freighter took almost 2 hours to get to from the nearest landmass... I fell asleep driving that slow as hell submarine. When I finally got there I did all the mission bits (another 40 minutes of mindless 'press forward for 10 minutes at a time') then went back to land so I could finally save the game and forget the endless purgatory that was that terrible mission (another 1.5 hours). As soon as I hopped in my ship and got out to make sure it saved the game crashed. The only crash in 35 hours of playtime. Didn't save. Now I have to do it all again just to get a pointless helmet and get that mission off my list. I feel sick. I want to personally scatter Lego at the bottom of the stairs of that quest designer's house so they suffer as much as I did. Now I have to do it all over again

No actually, No Mans Sky has not delivered more than what was promised. [Discussion]

They can keep adding superficial optional mechanics forever and they will never deliver on what was promised at launch. This post isn’t meant to discredit the accomplishments of Hello Games, we can all agree that they have done great work in updating NMS. That being said, you cannot tell me that we’ve even gotten a sliver of what was promised pre-release. The fundamental core of this game, the galaxy, the planets, and the creatures all feel and are the exact fucking same. Until we get a comprehensive proc gen overhaul this game will never be what it was promised to be. I honestly wish that hello games just went dark for a year two and blew us away.

Frontiers Bugs found on first session. [Bug]

All on PS5 using latest 3.6 Frontiers update downloaded today.

  • Unable to debrief frigates as before. No mission log is displayed when selected and the proceeds of the mission are delivered almost instantly. This also means the frigate mission rooms don't clear the previous mission as complete and you cannot then start new frigate missions as the rooms are still in use. Also, save\reload means you can benefit from the 'stuck' mission proceeds over and over again.

  • Base computer 'take picture' option not working. Screen blurs and breaks up. No clear view is possible until you back out of the feature & return to the base computer main view.

  • Updating companions appearances not possible. When selected from the menu, the game 'jumps' as if to open the screen, but nothing happens and it returns to the main options for that companion. (Pet, feed, ride etc).

  • Build camera very erratic. Using quite often produces screen very similar to that seen for the base computer picture option. Again, backing out of the view restores display to normal operation.

Frontiers - getting started tip [Information]

dont go to the place you get by default, you'll be stuck with the random choice of locations

go to the space station, buy the settlement map, go to the planet you want, LAND, use the map and should get the settlement for that planet

seems there is 1 settlement per planet, per player.

i was able to pick a settlement on each planet in my system as long as i used the map while landed on the planet

it seems you only get 1 location per planet, no matter how many attempts or starting over. it stays the same.

bug warning: stay with 1st choice, if you abandon and get a 2nd, there is a bug that stops progression

[Guide] How to spawn a settlement on your planet of choice [Information]

Hey!

I'm not sure if this is already considered common knowledge but it took me a couple of hours to figure this one out. I hope someone can confirm that this works, but I've successfully made it this way three times now as I was testing it out.

Quick note: If you've already triggered the settlement mission in the system where your planet of choice is located in, this unfortunately won't work anymore. See if you can reload a backup of the save where you haven't triggered it yet. Step 1: Backup your saves! On PC it should be located under: C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\HelloGames\NMS\st_RANDOMNUMBER Step 2: Log in and IF you're on your planet of choice already, DON'T fly into space, yet. Use a teleporter and teleport yourself to a station that's NOT in the system where your planet of choice is located in. Step 3: Undock in that random system and trigger the automated settlement sequence. Just click through the dialogue and ignore it. Step 4: Acquire at least 5 Navigation Data to purchase at least 1 Settlement Chart from the Cartographer at the Station. If you can't get the Navigation Data on the station you can undock without any issues and get them. Step 5: After you purchased at least 1 Settlement Chart, teleport back to the system where your planet of choice is located and land on the planet (doesn't matter where on the planet but it has to be on the planet you're choosing). Step 6: Get out of your ship so it auto-saves. (Important) Step 7: Now you can activate your settlement chart and it should give you a settlement marker on your planet. If not, load the autosave and retry. (Sometimes it doesn't do anything at all, if that happens just reload)

What I've noticed doing this is that if you're flying around in the system OR are inside your ship when activating the chart (even when landed), the chances seem much higher that the settlement...

I’m pretty new to the game and I just got on my first freighter mission that is now done but I can’t debrief the mission.

I can see the command room where I should debrief but when I try to do it it just kicks me out of the debrief menu and that’s it I still have the symbol in the room and everything still tells me to debrief.

I really can’t find a solution for myself online.
