Improve standing with Vy'keen? [Question]

Hello! This is my first time playing No Man's Sky in like... 4-5 years?

Anywho, I decided to practice some language skills on some fellow Vy'keen, and let's just say we're enemies now.

How can I improve my standing? Relatively quick..?

HelloGames needs to make deleting saves less confusing - just lost 9+ months of work and hundreds of hours [Suggestion]

Had a normal save that I'd been playing on-and-off since I'd gotten the game. Had 500+ hours logged, $3B+ credits, 100k nanites, all QS items unlocked, S-class freighter/multi-tool and a fully upgraded 48-slot exotic. Was starting to experiment with settlements and had a network of portal-linked bases across multiple galaxies.

Figured that I wanted to try out survival but decided it wasn't for me and went to delete my survival save - only to find out that the menu not only changes the order of saves depending on which one you last clicked, but also doesn't tell you at all which save you're deleting.

My interest is down to 0 at this point. I've tried seeing if I had backups but it seems that I'm SOL - and considering all the progress made and the QS items it'll be months before I can even get near to where I was. It's surprising that the menu doesn't show you any details at all about the save you're deleting (not even which mode it's on), and this absolutely needs to change.

Duplicate Awakenings mission? [Bug]

Yesterday, a distress beacon signal sent me to a copy of the introductory crash site with the distress beacon with the red ball in it. I chose to interact with the beacon because I was hunting for ships to salvage and if I didn't, I was pretty sure I'd not be able to get any more distress beacons in that system until it went away. The problem is now I'm getting the Awakenings interactions all over again (i.e. the radio signal saying I'm not alone) and I'm worried its going to start asking me to build another base and start the whole Artemis story over again. Has anyone else experienced this before? Have I screwed up my save or is this going to stop?

Thanks

EDIT: The main issue here is that I'm only partway through the Artemis missions for the first time as it is, so if this thing starts causing me to bounce back and forth between two different stages of the mission, I'm going to get frustrated pretty fast.

Found a better Freighter, now what? [Question]

I came across a better freighter but wanted to ask if it's a full reset like with ships when you buy it? I've put some serious time into my current one and was wondering what happens when you want to upgrade to a new one, does the inside reset to scratch and do I need to unload everything from my current one?

#

Storage’s [Suggestion]

I wish the devs would make it so when looking at a storage container a list of contents would pop up to save having to look in each one manually

#

Is "The Complete Fauna" glitched?? [Bug]

I have scanned all 10 creatures. The milestone even shows 10/10. Yet it will not let me turn it in for rewards.

I read in another post that someone had a similar issue. He said he went to another planet and scanned one creature there and it completed for him. That did not work for me however. Does anyone have a solution that will allow me to turn this in and get my rewards???

PS4 no connection to matchmaking services [Bug]

Everything was great until one random day I got this trying to play with a friend like I usually do. My online discovery service is active. I tried restarting my PS4. I haven't seen this type of issue on the PS4 from my research.

Declined daggers after armoror bug, but they arent dead. [Question]

I gave them the dagger, and they said they made a ship upgrade while I was gone. This process repeated and I tried exiting the conversation, it wouldn't work. So I denied I had the daggers. He went on about being at peace. (Vy'keen Dagger). All in all I'm worried. Will they die eventually? Or will they actually stay alive? Is there any way to reverse this?

I still have the 2 daggers in my inventory.

DISCLAIMER, READ BEFORE DOWNVOTING: I am aware this has been similar brought up in the past. This is NOT about how I fix the bug, but rather the question of fate of my armorer, and if I may reverse the issue. (The mission is no longer on my menu)

Exosuit overall stats [Discussion]

For as old as this game is and the many updates NMS has had over the years. I'm surprised there's no overall stats for you character's Exosuit - there is overall stats for every other menu. How come there's no Exosuit stats?

Supply Pipes [Discussion]

Okay I'm for certain there is something going on with connecting supply pipes to mineral extractors. I was able to build them just fine and connect everything but once I powered them on the supply pipe refused to find a connection point.. a bit frustrating.. anyone have a fix to this?

How do I get a good settlement spawn? I’ve been having bad luck in the department so any help would be massively appreciated.

What is this annoying laser/sparking? [Question]

So, does anybody know what this annoying beam and bunch of sparks is? Is this some other player with nothing better to do but spray me with laser? It literally follows me around all game long when I play in community areas or challenges.

#

I have a community expedition question [Question]

So I just started playing the community expedition and I saw there are a lot of bases on the world (probably because it’s part of the expedition haha). But next to some of the bases there is a symbol of a game controller. Does anyone know what that means?

#

Think I'm doing it wrong [Question]

I've been trying to trigger a freighter rescue by warping between 2 systems and saving on a planet, what am I missing? More than enough time has elapsed for the CD

#

Building issue [Bug]

I am up to the part where you build a base but I placed my base computer, established my area and pressed up on the dpad but I don't have an option to place walls or floors. It doesn't even show up as an option.

#

Expedition Question [Question]

I have a lot of the various challenges completed, but in the first section the only one I'm missing is to shelter in an Alien building during a storm. I've scanned & used the signal booster a ton of times & no building ever shows up. So I walked a LONG ways from my base & dropped the signal booster again & now a settlement shows up FOUR HOURS AWAY. I cant fly, do they really expect someone to take 4 hours out of their day & walk that far? That's f####ing nuts!

Also cant seem to deploy the Minotaur although I know the plans & have all the material's on hand.

Condensed Carbon [Question]

I have noticed that less condensed carbon is needed for filling different technologies , for example the mining beam, rather than the normal carbon. Is it more efficient if I use a refiner to turn all my carbon into condensed carbon?

#

Is the main story worth doing? [Question]

I recently got back into no man’s sky and made a new save file, in my old ones I didn’t get too far and didn’t really bother with the main story so I was wondering if it was actually worth it

A community expedition question [Question]

I’m at a point in the expedition where I need a microprocessor to repair the launch system of my ship. It says “buy microprocessor at a galactic trading place but to get there I need to repair my spaceship first. I also can’t build my own galactic trending place in my base because you need microprocessors for it. Does anyone know what I’m supposed to do?

#

Constant frame drops after the new major updates [Question]

I remember when I was playing the game prior to the few major updates that took place it ran incredibly smooth on High settings, I think Origins was the last time I played? Even after Origins I remember the performance decreased but it was still manageable, however now after I've started playing again, the game runs incredibly poor, it was basically unplayable before I found this old post which helped make the game at the very least playable after also considerably lowering my graphic settings, but the constant stuttering and frame drops still make for an unpleasant experience with the game, what can I do about this? I really miss playing this game and I want to get back into it but it feels impossible with the performance problems

#

Save incompatible? [Question]

So i was playing today, when my game suddenly froze, no problem, i just restarted my PC. But after restarting, and trying to load my save it stated that my save was incompatible with my copy of NMS. WTF is going on? I play on GOG btw, if that helps.

Problem with VR bindings not saving using a Reverb G2 [Bug]

Hello,

I'm a using a WMR headset, the Reverb G2, with steam VR.

My problem is that I can't have custom bindings for a specific game, and that is No Man Sky.

Let me explain myself : Steam VR actually lets me edit or choose a custom binding for this game. But as soon as I go back to the binding options menu, the "Active Controller Binding" is set to default again. In game, my bindings are still set to the default ones too. So whathever I do regarding the bindings has no effect.

This problem only occurs for No Man Sky. I have tried :

  • Using the old UI

  • Using different bindings, saving my own bindings

  • Resetting the bindings by editing "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config\steamvr.vrsettings" and deleting the binding file in the "Documents\steamvr\input" folder.

  • Reinstalling NMS

  • Video drivers cleaned and reinstalled.

I tried updating everything, even tried using the beta version of WMR.

My video card is an RX 6800.

Please save me.

(living) ship inventory bug? [Bug]

So i had an S-class living ship with 48+28 inv slots, multiple upgrades etc. and i was buying and scrapping ships for nanites. Suddenly when i entered my living ship, i only had 18+5 slots and installed tech from newly bought ship (that i'd already scrapped). Anyone seen this bug before/knows how you solve it? I'm in PS5...

So i guess the expedition is just impossible now? [Question]

I started it a bit ago, i have wandered 1,000 units from where my ship spawned (inside someones base) and i still cant make my base. Theres just so mny bases everywhere and im not aure if i will be able to find a spot i can put one on especially doing it on foot.

#

Combinig multiple base limits [Question]

I want to ask if base, builded with more base computers ( i build base, then i go out of bulding range and build another, if it is necessary I will continue in buldingand from new base range, then will upload both) My question is: Will this multibase look for other players normaly? Because I am building nice base, but I reached limit to upload. Because of that I cant build anything alse and put it online, without deleting some of already placed parts. Or will I be able to upload second base only if I will stay in its range while I will be building? Or what happens? Dont want to mess up my base, so I am rather asking?

#

A community expedition question [Question]

I’m at a point where I need to get “Herox” to repair my ship. To unlock the blueprint I need to find a outpost. The game says that you can use your Minotaur scanner to find it. But the thing is: I can’t get a Minotaur. Because this is a community expedition everyone spawns on the same planet, and there can only be 5 Minotaur per planet. So my question is, does anyone know how I can find a outpost (or maby just how to get herox)?

New Build Mode on Console is Almost Unusable [Discussion]

Am I the only one struggling to do anything with the new base building menus after the Frontiers update? Base building used to be one of my favorite things to do in the game and now it's basically unusable.

Why can't I place a teleporter? Why does grass still show up in my base after flattening the ground first with my terrain tool (RIP that happening automatically when you place a floor tile)? Why is the 2nd floor wall automatically vented?!

#

Help please! I haven’t played the game in a year. I launched it yesterday and just couldn’t figure out the controls. [Bug]

Things didn’t make sense. I use a xbox controller on my PC. I couldn’t even navigate the menus. I’m confident there is something wrong. For example when I’m in the option menu it says press RS to exit but when I do nothing happens, and I can only exit if I press right arrow. I’m also unable transfer inventory etc. Many issues. Has anyone faced such a problem and what can I do to get this fixed. The steam gamepad profile seems ok but it’s not correlating to the game correctly.

Confused about underwater base building [Question]

I unlocked all deep water building blocks and i've done a handful of rooms, but how do i build up? The vertical glass tunnel doesn't work, it doesn't let me access the room above...

The base has power so it can't be that

#

Trying to finish Atlas Path, but I can't find the Atlas (Warning - minor spoilers) [Spoiler]

So, I finished pretty well everything (I think) on this path. I reset the simulation, I crafted the Atlas seeds, and made the remembrance. Now I have to find the next Atlas interface. I've gone to Polo several times, I've warped no less than 30 times, and it is not giving me any indication of where to find the Atlas. Made even more frustrating since I visited it about 20 times previously to get the recipes and other reasons.

I've unselected and reselected the mission about 10 times, and I've shut my PS4 down at least twice since I've been doing this for about 4 or 5 hours. I haven't even really cared for the story, I want to explore. But at this point I just want to finish this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

#

I'm an on and off player and expedition noob and have a question... [Answered]

So I have my usual save that I've been building up and got to a good spot (got a farm running and a profitable settlement) but taken a break to give Expedition 3 a go.

Once it's over what happens? Are you meant to just keep playing that save now or can you redeem unlocks on the Anomaly for your regular character?

#

stupid egg quest. how long is it ? [Question]

im following the map to where my egg wants to be, is there any way for me to see how far away the end is ? iv been traveling for hours now and I feel like its really putting me off with no sense of getting any closer than I was hours ago.

talking about the galactic map ofc.

#

Can you change settlements production? [Question]

So I have this settlement, pretty advanced, 500.000 units of net benefit per day, happiness is more than 50%, but I still only produce cactus and some other very cheap thing, do I have to do anything specific to change it, or do I just have to wait?

PS: It's already S Rank

#

Automatic Turning on Hills [Bug]

Whenever I'm walking on a hill or slope, the camera turns to point down hill automatically. I don't remember this being a problem the last time I played, which was years ago.

I read a few posts about this, but they're at least a year old and no solution was provided.

This also happens on completely flat surfaces like on space stations. For this reason I think this classifies as a bug.

Is there a solution? If not, then I'm requesting that it be removed from the game. It's incredibly annoying.

#

How do expeditions work? [Question]

If I start an expedition on a normal save does my save get permanently converted to an expo save? Im not sure weather or not anything will be majorly affected. Will my inventory come with me on the expo? Will it get wiped only for the expo and come back once I finish?

#

New* person here [Discussion]

Tough I'm not new to the game, I am new to the community around it, and some features such as freighters and settlements. I was wondering if there was somebody willing to help me understand if there's some things I'm doing wrong or inefficiently, as well as explaining others. I'm a PS4 user, and i mostly play in VR since i hate controller first-person games.

Rock growing back into underground base. [Question]

I've built my home base into the side of a mountain where most of it is underground. I came back after a few days of glyph chasing and void egg fathering to find my base was full of rock. Everything i had excavated for the construction was back. My poor helpers were sealed in stone.

How do I prevent this? I havent sealed all the underground rooms, most have rock ceilings cause i think it's cool. Could that be the issue?

Weekly Nexus Quest Bugged [Question]

I'm hoping someone can help me. I was doing the weekly quest on pc yesterday, and as I picked up the 12th bone, I crashed. I lost the quest and did it again this morning, this time I went back to the nexus and it would not accept the quest as completed. I abandoned the quest and decided to just do a regular one, when I went to get into my ship I got a big notice that my mission was aborted. Can someone let me know what I need to do to fix this issue? Maybe even get credit for doing to weekly? Twice! Thanks in advance

Claimed ship, now want to sell it. [Question]

I found an abandoned ship. I still have the starter ship, so it’s better than mine. I decided to claim it. I know I have to repair stuff to fly it back. I don’t have the stuff to repair it and need to go to my base. But every time I leave somewhere, I can never find it again. Like I found a trade hub on my planet and now I can’t find it again. I don’t want to lose the ship. So how can I mark an area and fly back to it?

Once I get the ship, I plan to trade it for a better one. Is there a particular place to find better ships? Or do I have to just wait in a space station until on comes in?

#

Can Settlements Be Found By Chance? [Question]

Landed on the planet I want a settlement in, been doing the whole use chart & reload trick for almost an hour but alas, they are always on another planet. Is it possible to find a settlement purely by chance by flying around in a ship?

#

Can't remember a name or source of an item... help! [Question]

Today I suddenly remembered there was an item (some sort of "lost explorer log") you could obtain that gave you discovery on a single fauna/flora (and possibly geological too?)... problem is, I can't for the life of me remember what was the item's name or, perhaps more importantly, how to obtain it. I think it was a chance to get while digging up stuff, but I had no luck so far.

Uncle Google was no help so I figured I'd try here. Thanks in advance!

#

Opinion: The sound design choices in this game needs major work. [Suggestion]

I'm a newbie to NMS, but I've been enjoying my time with the game. Traveling is fun, starship combat feels pretty intuitive, and the inventory management scratches an itch I get from time to time. The one place I find myself at a loss is with the sound in this game.

Let's be real; sound isn't the most fun, or flashy thing to improve. It doesn't pop up on the screen in a flourish, and it has to really excel to bring the razzle-dazzle that graphical improvements/additions bring.

That being said, I feel NMS deserves better sound, especially on the effects. I don't think I speak for most people, but I think I speak for some when I say that I find most sound effects a little more grating than they need to be. Just about every extension for the Multi-tool sounds like I've been shooting things with a Zapper Gun from the 70's. Just about everything my Exosuit says breaks my enjoyment just a little bit.

I'm sure a lot of time and money went into getting the voice tweaked just right, but that doesn't change that NMS is the first game I've ever played that has an immutable, grating confirmation used to this extent. I don't need to hear "UNITS RECEIVED." after every item I sell. I don't need to hear "PRODUCT CONSTRUCTED" for every item I craft. I don't need to hear "RADIATION PROTECTION... FALLING" every time I step outside. I certainly don't need yo hear "INVENTORY FULL" when it pops up on my screen in neon red text. NMS is probably the first game whose audio "clues" have actually broken my immersion.

I know I'm not in some supermajority when I say that this game's audio design needs an overhaul. I think it's important that the developers and community recognize when their sound is working to the detriment of the game they so love. I don't think it would take much to make these improvements, either; a simple "Exosuit Verbosity" Options setting...

Looking for mod for clarification [Modding]

Hello all, I'm looking for a mod that'll work with the current game build to remove chromatic aberration, vignette, etc. I just tried the deep space V2 mod from Nexus mods but it didn't seem to do anything assuming it's because it hasn't been updated since 2016... So looking for that type of mod for the newest version of the game and cannot seem to find it. Any one know what I need?

Artemis story line not triggering [Question]

New to the game! Will welcome advice. [Discussion]

I picked this up yesterday after seeing a Kevduit video. Looked interesting and saw it was free on Gamepass. I got about an hour or so in and have no idea what I’m doing. Currently just blasting plants with a laser. And I managed to get my ship off the ground.

I’m ok with a game not holding my hand as I like to figure stuff out as I go, but I’m lost somewhere on the first planet and my radiation keeps going off the charts.

So if anyone has some advice for a total beginner I’m all ears!

#

New Player: Perspective [Discussion]

I love this game. I started playing a day or two ago. Space battles have been amazing, challenging at first, but now, up and down means nothing when im flying around. As it should be. Early on my brain told me to orient myself, find up and down, left and right. No brain, we are in space, those dont exist. I remember hours of trying to orient myself with the nearest planet, as if it mattered. Now I still approach my own freighter upside down sometimes, because ive fully adapted to no up and down, because its space.

This game has been a great deal of fun for me.

The only thing I want changed is that I cant stand the fact I have to recharge my starship after 4 launches (i just got a new efficient one though)

#

What's the best way to farm credits/nanites/currency? [Discussion]

Was just conversing in a thread with a newbie concerned about "the best" way to "do it" when exploring. They didn't want to commit to making bases.

I explained that

there's so many options and non-limitations in the game that "best" isn't really a thing. If you post "What's the best way to farm credits?", you'll get tons of methods different from that, all of which are perfectly viable.

So the clickbaity title is more about "What are you farming, and how has it worked out for you?"

#

Old/new player getting back into the game - How do you quell your inner completionist? [Discussion]

I bought this game a few years back. I enjoyed it but due to rl reasons I didn't have enough time to sink into the game to make it (in my mind) worth playing at that time. Recently I've been getting back into it a bit. I really enjoyed the Expedition and wish I hadn't missed the first ones. After I finished up with all the phases of this expedition I booted up my first playthrough on normal and started playing again (I was only in the first system at that point).

My question for discussion is; In a game that has as much content and is a such an insane scale as NMS, how do you quell the inner completionist in you? What do you focus on doing? I literally could spend 100hrs just in the first system trying to find every building or plant/animal/rock. Do you just kind of let the adventure take you? Do you ignore the details and just go for the big picture and race to the center of the galaxy? I find the game to be overwhelming in the best way possible if that makes sense. I'm loving the game this time around and I can't wait to keep discovering it's secrets.

Rasamama S36 [Question]

Hey guys! I used to play this back in 2016, and have recently picked it back up again.

Being a player from yore, I find my mind is often with the original startership, and the early days of exploration.

I was wondering if any of you guys felt like sharing the orginal Rasamama S36 with me?

I know that there once was a thread on these types of requests but I can’t find it anymore. Please just remove this post if it is too low-tier.

Weird unique companion help. [Question]

Hello!

Yesterday I caught someone with a sandworm pet in the anomaly hub. I was amazed by how cool it is. So I asked the person how they got it and if I perhaps could have an egg or buy it off him. He did not respond and at one point dissapeared.

But at one point when I returned I saw chat about people talking about sentinel pets like the sentinel dog and walker mech.

Do any of you know how to get a sandworm or sentinel companion? Or possibly have an egg I could buy or get from you?

Thank you for your time!

Can we please get a system navigation update? [Discussion]

I have an S-Class that can go 2200+ light years a jump yet the star charts only navigate routes a little more than 500ly away. Is there something I need to upgrade in my ship so the navigation can map out a path farther? Or is it just like I suspect and the navigation is this game is bad?

If I'm able to jump 2200ly my navigation system should be able to map out a trail that long.

Stuck on the "Awakenings" mission (Find Antimatter Recipe) [Question]

First of all, I have googled and only find solutions that are not part of the point I'm at.

So, the mission specifically is "Craft Warp Fuel: Find Antimatter Recipe". I have to get to the signal and locate the "source of Antimatter". This takes me to a weird planet that is mostly covered with water and the beacon/signal is deep in the water in the middle of the sea, which means I cannot land the ship. And if I land it on land (which is far away from the signal) I can jump into the water but it's "extreme radiation" so I am basically dead in less than a minute (I need at least 5-10 minutes If I'm going to swim). So I'm stuck, any ideas what to do? Appreciate the help:)

#

Be able to see the different variations of the same species and hear their vocalizations. [Suggestion]

I wish once we scanned in a creature we would be able to see the different variations of them. I've named some creatures after a feature (Tusked, Leatherback, etc.) that doesn't fit all the variations and this would help with that. It could be that once you scan one in of that species you can hit a button to view the different variations or that you would have to scan in each variation to be able to view it and receive a little extra couple of units for it. For example some creatures have male/female/young variations.

It would also be cool if we could hear what each animal sounded like.

Clan warships [Screenshot]

My first jump into Rikongy resulted in me saving a capital ship. It was all white, s-class. I took it. One of my clan members just got hers. It is just like mine, but she has boosters on top at the rear where mine has some kind of tower.

One of our other members got his first last night. After discovering the we could not all summon them, I learned how to mod and made a mod which only changes a variable from false to true, allowing us to warp them all in. Here are some screenshots, taken at different times.

Note that my white warship turns black and red to me when my friend's freighter is nearby and it turns blue and gold when my other friend's warship is nearby.

Lost all my specialist terminals [Bug]

Yesterday i spent a good amount of time renovating my house. Today when i logged back in all my specialist terminals were gone. Everything else was there. Only there terminals were.

Easy way to move base? [Question]

#

Help with controls/cables [Question]

So, i want to have the electromagnetic stuff to my base, but its too far to get all in one base, so i made another next to the power supply. The thing is that cables aren’t compatible with each base (i cant connect the 2 bases). When building, there is an option that is “switch base” that i believe it is for switch wich base you want to build. In the controls in-game page, it doesn’t tell me what to do to switch it, and neither does any web page. So, the main thing is that i want to connect 2 bases under 1 only powe supply. Any help would be appreciated

Occulus Rift S Controls [Question]

Pulling what little is left of my hair out trying to master the Occulus Rift S controls in NMS! I have mastered the basics, although there doesn't seem to be a list of these anywhere and the hints and tips in game are either ambiguous or just don't work. Two things I just cannot get to work at all is placing a custom marker with the scanner open - I press X as instructed and sometimes a marker is placed at 90 degrees to the left of where I am pointing/looking - If I point the gun 90 degrees to the right it sometimes lands in front of me - but mainly just nothing happens! Secondly I cannot work out for the life of me how to do the melee boost jetpack launch. I have been running, sprinting then either throwing my arms out and/or squeezing the right/left grip button just before I hit the B button to take off but no luck. If anyone can put me out of my VR misery I would be most grateful. I have tried looking in the Steam VR Controls - but they don't really make any sense to me. Otherwise really enjoying the VR experience :)

How does the game mode Community expedition work [Question]

Hello I am new to No Man's Sky and I am trying to get the golden vector but I have a few questions. 1 why does the game mode have a time limit does it reset everyone's save file or what. 2 is there any way to put down my exocraft summoning pad even though there is a limit to how many summoning pads and in order to get to the closest outpost to repair my ship I will have to walk 9 hours of time (of which I do not have) and on top of the landing pad problem From what I read on the description the expedition required me to BUILD the pad and seeing as there is a limit of 5 pads per planet and I don't have a ship and I don't have exocraft to do any of these tasks so I'm stuck spending the majority of my day walking across some really annoying planet that is always trying to kill me every 3 seconds and I am stuck between a rock and a hard place and the major annoyance of trying not to die and get the tasks done in 4 weeks. if anyone has any ideas on how I can fix my problem before I throw my controller through the wall please if anyone can help you have all my appreciation (sorry I don't have much to offer) thanks in advance

Multitool Hunters Max tool pool on a planet. [Information]

Hello All, I discovered today while hunting down this tool that there are up to a pool of 8 multitool per planet. I thought the pool limit was 4 from way back when but it appears to have changed. I don't know what the actual limit is but I have found 8 on this one planet with this tool.

P is pistol

R is Rifle

1 P Buinsk's Loop

R Return Fire

R Rodynalibs Raycast, Note this is S class at space station

P Voltage Silencer

P Laynlca Light

P Prayer of Perfection

P Conceptual Kushem

The one in the photo Touch of Lightening

There was one other odd thing about the planet, I found a tool drawer/cabinet that was completely void. see other photo

Touch of Lightening

This cabinet is completely empty, reloaded save 4 times and completely exited game 4 times. There is nothing to interact with. Even after waiting for all the graphics to load

Multitool Hunters Blank Cabinet on Planet with Alien Tool [Question]

So I found this blank cabinet on a planet with a pool of 8 multitool, one of which is an alien tool, this is also in a system with an S class rifle at the space station.

Question should I keep hunting for this s class alien tool or does this indicate that this one of those dude systems that only gives the Sclass at the space station?

Sclass tool that I am after on same planet with 8 other tools

This is the blank cabinet and no there is no graphics error you can not interact with the cabinet other than opening it, No matter the number of reloads or wait times

Cant change NumHighThreads/NumLowThreads [Bug]

So I found this fix to FPS issues where you change those 2 inside "TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS" according to the number of threads you have. I have 8 threads so I changed the High ones to 4 and Low to 3 (1 left for system) but it changes the values by itself when I start the game to silly values like 13 or 12 and so on. How can I make these changes permanent? (running on Linux through Steam + Proton)

Settlement- a couple questions [Question]

Just ran into a settlement for the first time yesterday. Had to defend it and such and asked about the while overseer thing, as the script goes. however, it appeared to be already owned by another player, as it had their name associated with it. Is it normal ro bring up a quest line as overseer when someone already has that settlement?

Are settlements only created when run the settlement map to find one, or can you run into a unclaimed settlement?

Living ship storage glitch help needed [Question]

With respect to the living ship storage upgrade glitch, where by having a friend buy a ship from a space station and you can trick the game into thinking that your living ship is a mechanical one, therefore allowing you to use storage upgrade on it, I am looking for someone who would be willing to help me do this on my living ship. I'm online now. Let me know if anyone is up now and can join in. TIA

#

Possible bug: can’t give “null” resource to settlement? [Question]

Playing on a PC. Building out my settlement, and I have a construction stuck in final phase because it’s asking “Give resources ()”. There’s nothing in the parentheses. Can’t get past this. Saved and reloaded several times, and the settlement is fairly developed so I’m not starting over. Haven’t been given another construction opportunity in a while.

Galaxy Center Question [Question]

So I have over 700 hours in No Mans Sky but I never managed to actually make it to the center of the galaxy.

I started a new save and told myself that this time I would do it. And I actually did... so I thought. I'm not sure I'm very confused and I need help.

I am one system away from the center, trying to warp again the route-line will go straight to the center but I can't warp there. At the last system I have no quest markers, only a base build by a player.

Is anything supposed to happen? Cause I really can't imagine that would be it.

Obviously DO NOT spoil the ending if there actually is one.

Here's a couple things about this run that might mess up my galaxy center ending:

  • I haven't finished the base tutorial quests (with the overseer, science and weapon dude)

  • I have finished "New Beginnings" and I reset the simulation and chose Eissentam, where I started at the very edge again

  • I used a portal to cut my journey a little shorter, skipping 600k ly

  • In my questlog I got nothing about having to reach the center anymore

https://preview.redd.it/y7icew8iuwp71.jpg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a595b5b42f207c7a354362dab3af0b8530929f79

Can someone guide me? I'd really like to see the actual ending. I am very afraid something is bugged, but I'm hopeful that I'm just missing something.

#

What to bring with me to the center of Euclid? [Question]

Hey everyone, sorry if this has been asked a billion times- I often, when searching, find guides or questions from years ago when it was practically a different game. What sorts of materials should I be prepared to bring, for when I finally enter the center of the galaxy for the first time? I don't want to be completely unprepared- I'm rich in credits, but not yet in materials, and I wanted to find a better galaxy for finding paradise planets to make a home base.

It's really exciting to be located next to the center of Euclid now and to have a little base where I'm preparing to cross the threshold. I just don't want to miss out/mess up!

Also question: Will I be okay if I'm not very far in Artemis, in a new galaxy?

Online base building with friends [Question]

I don’t have No Man’s Sky yet so I can’t test anything out myself, but I am getting it and I am trying to convince my friends to get it too. My question is would we be able to share a world?

Also would we be able to see each other while we were playing even if we weren’t actively in a party?

Still need great help [Bug]

I’ve made this same post a while ago but I have not been given any right answers, most of them were helpful but don’t work. I have been stuck on the “scientific research” mission because it is glitched, I cannot find a scientist. I have tried going to different korvax systems, I’ve talked to all the npc’s at the space station, I’ve tried using a black hole and going far away to possibly reset, I’ve exited and restarted the game entirely, yet nothing works. I’m remaking this post in the hopes of someone giving me more advice on what to do to fix this glitch.

Thanks in advance to whoever gives me some help!

How long is living ship farming supposed to take? [Question]

Expeditions Question: Can I turn off multiplayer after I’ve already started the expedition? [Discussion]

What’s your main way of getting units? [Discussion]

#

Please let us use a party members Freighter perks like orbital exos. [Suggestion]

Recently found myself starting a new character with a friend as we travel the galaxy together.

I get that this game wasn’t initially designed with coop in mind. But it does seem like they’ve been teasing and testing the waters so to speak.

For whatever reason maybe there’s a technical issue with having multiple freighters in the same system - and that’s ok. But for the love of all that is gek can we please be able to use it as a substitution for our own? If not access the storage as well, I don’t understand why the code was never tweaked to let you use an orbital station to summon vehicles you own.

It doesn’t make sense. It would be a very small thing to change that would make a ton of difference.

And if it’s not being too picky, I get not sending storage to our own even if they have them built. But if I can fly into it and they can hyperdrive jump us around for fun I should be able to access it physically running up to them like a ground base.

Returning to the game after giving up on it at launch~ [Question]

Obviously there's no point in going over the state of the game at launch at length. It was bad, I put 10hrs into it and felt disappointment only rivaled by Fallout 76 and Battlefield V. I swore I'd never touch the game again.

And now, after all but being literally suplexed into my chair by a friend insisting I try it again, I've put another 30hrs into the game.

God dammit. Why couldn't it have been like this at launch?

In any case, I've found myself greatly enjoying the game, though not without a few stumbling blocks along the way. So if I might pick your brains~

-Where can I find more storage? Between my inventory and ship I'm getting frustrated with the limited inventory. I've been told there's craftable boxes, but where?

-why does my ship insist on spawning INSIDE my base? How can I prevent this?

-why is the galaxy map so awful and unwieldy? Is there any mod or anything to improve it?

-is there any downside to blasting sentinels? You get so many nanites it seems like and strafing them in a ship makes fighting them trivial. But is it worth it?

-I dream of fleet battles and capital ships. Are these a thing yet? I've heard a bit but no consistent answer.

Not-boss room aboard Derelict? [Meme]

Help with Upgrade Module’s? [Question]

So I’m trying to understand using modules and needed a little advice. I'm on PS5 by the way.

1.) I’ve heard you can have 3 modules attached to each piece of tech that will highlight when places next to each other and give you a bonus. Clearly the goal would be to get 3 S class modules, however yesterday I had 4 attached and highlighted. 2 B level ones, a C and an S. The only odd thing was that one of the B modules had a very odd description, something like.. “UPGRADE_0_STAT_COMMON_DESC" Was that a bug and the reason the game didn't "recognize" I had 4 attached, or can you have as many upgrades attached as long as only 3 are if the same class.., like going crazy and having 3 S class, 2 A, 2 B and 2C class, all attached and highlighted??

2.). So there are modules that have clear stat increases in the description, then there are the modules that have the percentage bar and can be recharged using minerals. Should you have more than one of those rechargeable ones with the percentage bar? Or is it better just to have one and then two more that have actual numered increases of stats attached to it?? I've got 3 breathing membrane rechargeable ones attached and highlighted so I'm assuming there giving a bonus. But I've also got that upgrade that looks like a helmet that apparently increases breathing time yet oddly enough if I attach that to any of those it won't highlight indicating their linked with a bonus?? Aren't they related since they all have to do with breathing underwater??

Sorry for the wall of text, I hope somebody can clear this up and thanks in advance... Loving NMS right now..

Question about each race [Question]

So what are the "anomaly" race? I always figured it was just the default player character. Any lore behind the races? Why do we get called "traveler" a lot?

I got it in 2016 on PS4 but only now getting into it after the updates. When I look at the traveler race I kind of get a "super intelligent/ascended" vibe. Sooo what is the lore behind these races?

HELP! Trying to build storage containers. [Question]

So I have about 10 hours into the game. I’m trying to get the blueprint for the storage containers but I’m having a really difficult time.

All the tutorials I’ve found are from 2 or 3 years ago and they don’t seem to be working for me.

They say to construct a cylindrical room, foundation and door. I’ve done all that and connected power to it. The quest, “Planetary based construction” is supposed to pop into your side missions and this has never happened to me.

I’ve tried many times. The quest is then supposed to bring you to an overseer who will give you a blueprint to build a computer and then you can get the storage container blueprint from that computer I believe. But again, I can’t get the quest to meet the overseer in the first place.

I don’t know what to do, the containers are something I really need, any ideas to obtain the storage container blueprint will be helpful.

Thanks.

'The Atlas Path' Storyline Not Showing Up In The Log. [Information]

I've seen people over time post on here saying how they cant continue The Atlas Path mission after going to another galaxy (for me that was via portal).

So this happened to me after grinding portal glyphs from travelers to be able to follow through with the living ship mission and I was left stuck for a while. Well after tinkering around I believe I have found a solution.

Solution (for me, at least.) : Go into space and make sure you are in Euclid. Request the Anomaly and go and talk to Nada THEN Polo. Ask Polo for Atlas Station coordinates. Boom. That's what worked for me. I hope this works for you if you're having this problem! It seems it even let me resume my progress.

Note: This may work in any galaxy when calling in the Anomaly but cannot confirm.

All items in base gone? [Question]

Am I bugged or was there a change I was not aware of? [Bug]

Over multiple saves every single multi tool on the anomaly has been c-class.

This would be over 100's of systems.

I remember in the past getting better than c-class tools on the anomaly. It would be odd this being a bug because this has been the case on more than one computer. If it is a bug it is somehow tied to my account.

Looks like 3 times is the max for Expedition 3 before it stops giving you new ships and headpiece. Also when i tested it didnt even random my spawn. As FRUSTRATING as this one was...i had a BLAST and cant wait for the next one!! [Discussion]

I got overwhelmed by the First Expedition, i tried it, didnt do much, played Diablo3 since theyd started a new season close to that same time. But these last 2 even though they really tested my patience (this one most of all) still gave me excitement when i was getting good at it. I had to finish it as many times as possible to see the new RNG you get after you finish it. 3 times is max though. and with 4 weeks left...i guess ill just test a new save and see whats changed/improved with the games beginning.

Ancient Ruins (Crate and Keys keep respawning) [Bug]

I found a hilarious exploit where dug up artifacts and ancient key crates keep respawning their "items", the artifact crate keeps giving me the same artifact without needed to be unlocked with ancient keys.

All I have to do is fly my ship past a nearby mountain and turn around and collect the items and repeat, I don't even have to go too far.

This sort of happened maybe when I stayed around too long and killed off most of the Sentinels when getting the Gravitino Balls the first time I found the ruins.

Hey, Me and my co op partner are both on the mission Ghosts In The Machine where our objective is to infiltrate the secret Korvax facility using the bolt caster. The thing is, we blew that door down with our ships and went inside and did all the terminal stuff. The mission didn’t complete and I’m not sure how to get it to now.

(Rant) Tired of having to dig out my bases [Bug]

Sorry if this is an over discussed issue, while I have seen some talk about it I haven't seen much recently. Maybe it is just accepted at this point but I am a bit surprised this is still such an issue.

I have a few farm bases that I built that admittedly could have been done better but to save time I used the flatten tool to carve out a flat space for my base and equipment. It seems every couple weeks that the terrain has been completely reset and I have to dig out my base all over again. It is quite annoying! I am starting to move as much of my base as possible "above ground" but it is a hassle. is this just never going to be addressed?

The game itself looks great, but there are periods of time where my game is super jittery, and it freezes up all the time, which never really happens on a normal monitor except for loading screens. I looked up a number of fixes online, but they were all outdated. Any advice on how to make it run smoothly?

PC specs: Intel Core i5-10400F 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

Twitch drops. [Discussion]

Hello!

I claimed my twitch drops in one save game, but alas parts of it are so glitched that they are beyond repair (armorer missions for instance)

Can you claim the drops in another savegames?

Does anyone have an idea what triggers my "attacks" when playing this game [Question]

So this post will have a lot about my situation but it does come down to the game cause I want to play it but I can't figure out the best way to deal with this as I can't figure out the cause

So to start, years ago I had a concussion, I was still at school and school felt that after one week i needed to return to class (they did not agree with the doctors 3 week minimum) and pressured / threatened to the point that I had no choice Neglected concussion

For few years nothing was wrong till I was working in a greenhouse during a heatwave, someone who knew a lot about medical issues due to dealing with it often (through it was not his job he is creditable) was able to pinpoint that the heat knocked the damage from the concussion to the surface (I went to my doctor at that time but he was new and did not do his job, never read anyone's medical background or took patient claims seriously (not just me or my family but a lot of others also had the same complaints) so I only have that one persons opinion for it

Anyway during this time I suffered vertigo that I was bedridden, had to hold the walls just to get to the bathroom cause I could not keep myself up Healing I was eventually able to go down and play games, this was before No man was out But I've noticed that when I was aging forge mode in halo (which before this I spend huge amount of hours on) I ended up feeling real sick after 5 minutes, dizzy, sick in my stomach, sweating massively and feeling just real bad and unwell in my head Figured it was just too soon to play games Took few hours of rest where I was unable to do stuff to recover from the attack

Once i was finally healed from the situation (only times it came back in the following years was when I was going to get sick, week before I got dizzy again but it was manageable) I tried forge mode again But when I move as the...

went AFK in nexus, came back to being rich... [Question]

Is this a common thing?

I went AFK in the nexus for roughly an hour as I couldnt be bothered to logout. As i come back and check my inventory it is literally full of "Starship AI Valves worth something like 250 million for each stack so I am now much much richer than i was before.

Is this cheating in a way? is it just commonplace to become rich from a nexus visit?

Thanks

Get off ladder bug? [Question]

Found my first S class Multitool, how do i mod it? [Question]

So i have 60h in game and played with vanilla multitool (unmodded) and just lucked out and found a full slot alien MT while mapping out the area around my new home base and figgured i would finally start upgrading it. I tried google but all the videos guides seem rather outdated or just simply is a guide for getting a tool. Is there any up to date guides on what mods to get and how many mods there can be on modules etc?

I must be too picky [Discussion]

As the title says. I have been searching for my home planet in Eissenstam for...years. I feel like on one hand I may be too picky but like on the other hand I want to grab a settlement and make my biggest bestest base there. Lol.

Is it too much to ask for paradise planet with low sentinels, glowing grass, 3 star gek, cool alien creatures (think balls, globs, tentacles, hula hoops, ect..not dinos or cats) and oceans deep enough for underwater bases?

Ah well the search continues!

Discovering planets with my GF in VR! [Question]

I've been aching to play this game for a while now and it is finally time! As I have access to two VR setups, I want my girlfriend to join me on my journey. The idea of discovering new worlds with her, both fully immersed through VR, is just amazing to me, and so I really hope she will like the game.

Is there anything I should prepare for that might discourage her from playing? As I've understood it there are some initial quests in the beginning of the game, should I do them for her beforehand so we can get right to it?

I broke my base/farm. [Question]

So I built a half assed activated indium farm and have an electro magnetic generator going perfectly. I was able to place it about 540 units away before creating a generator/battery chain but now it won't let me build unless I'm in base limits. No idea what I did wrong or why it won't work anymore. HELP!

Side note. It only stopped working when I tried dropping two more generators on the hotspot and that's when it decided to give me the finger.

Please help, trying to find portal glyphs [Question]

I just finished the expedition and I'm roaming around hitting up atlas stations and some black holes, honestly im on the ppersonal quest for a paradise planet to call home base. But I've done some google research on finding the portal glyphs. It keeps telling me i need to do the Artemis missions, just can't seem to find it. Do i need to wait till the expedition is over? Do i need to talk to a certain person? If i can get the glyphs i can get to a paradise planet no problem.... just don't know how to get the glyphs.

Wanted to Find the Edge of Eissentam but can only get to 874k [Question]

I've been to the center of several galaxies (only warped to center of Euclid). Now I wanted to find the edge. I looked online and saw people saying they got to 1,159,245 LY away. I'm just under 874,000 and can't find any more systems to warp to.

Is the galaxy an oval? do I have to find another side to go further out? I tried zooming out for awhile but never found anymore stars, galaxy just started looking like a cloud.

Is this a dumb idea? [Discussion]

I've been playing off and on for about a year now, loved the game explored a bunch, set up several bases, and a fairly successful chlorine farm. But after making a butt load of money I kind of lost interest for a while.

Lately, I've been getting an exploration itch again and I've thought of 2 endeavours that may be interesting. The core expedition: I've heard about people heading to the core before and different stories of what happens once you get there. Which is interesting but mostly I'm more interested in the fact that there must be a bunch of people who set up bases on at least one of the planets that's in the last system before the jump to the core. So it's not so much a core expedition but an expedition to that theoretical highly populated planet, to carve a bit of it out for myself. Does anyone know if this is a thing? Anyone try looking for something like that? Is it possible to find other people's bases randomly in-game like this? End of the galaxy expedition: This one is essentially the inverse of the core expedition, where I would attempt to find the system that is furthest away from the core and establish a base there. My main question with this is there a way to easily identify which system this would even be?

I'm sure I can't be the first to try either of these, anyone know how viable either idea actually is?

I have a few questions about the multiplayer aspect of the game. [Question]

I just bought the game, I've been playing for about an hour, in single player mode. I have a few questions about some things (all these questions are assuming I'm in single player mode unless stated otherwise): Can other players see the plants, animals, etc I discover on my own planets? The same goes for basically anything that you name and upload Can other people see the things I build? Can other people see me if we happen to be in the same planet? If they don't see me, but they do see my builds, would they just see a base being built bit by bit on its own? Can they see my spaceship/other owned objects? If I'm not planning to play with any friends, is getting PS Plus to play multiplayer mode worth it? What are those Nanite Clusters I get for uploading for?

Sorry if these questions are a bother, I'm new and was wondering these things

How do you use Black Holes to reach the galactic core? [Question]

I'm in Budullangr, want to move on to the next galaxy, and every black hole shoots me from 600K to 1M LY across the galaxy, and usually in the wrong direction. Are there some factors I'm missing? Is the direction random? Do my ship stats affect it? I'm in a living ship so idk if that's making me launch father than I want or what. Also, unrelated to my original question, but I've been trying off and on for a week to run into one of the space anomalies that grant living ship upgrades but no matter how many abandoned systems I go to and pulse around in I never find any. Is there a trick to it? Do I need an item or something?

I’m having trouble getting Exploration frigates to spawn in my “Frigate System” [Question]

As the title states, I can’t seem to find any Exploration frigates for sale in my frigate system (I want them all to have the same color scheme). I’ve reloaded the save many times. I’ve pulsed around and examined many fleets that have warped into the system. I’ve also bought frigates that I don’t need and then dismissed them in hopes that they’d be replaced on the next spawn wave. Nothing has worked. I’ve tried Google to no avail. The only suggestion I can find is to warp systems, which I don’t want to do because the colors will be different. Anybody know a fix or should I scrap my fleet and start over?

Freighter Changed Back To Old One Cosmetically [Bug]

I had an A Class black and yellow venator style ship with a bridge tower and 2 cargo sections, so relatively short. I wanted to get an S class venator so I hunted for one and got the one I wanted but with 6 cargo sections and a friggin spoiler. It was MASSIVE and looked wicked cool and powerful. I summoned it in my home system and fully upgraded it and everything was good. Logged back on the next day and summoned it closer to the space station to show my brother and his buddy we play with and it looks like it go stage fright XD. It changed back to my previous 2 section ship but only cosmetically. It's still an S class and has all of my fleet upgrades, inventory, and everything. I kinda want the unreasonably large death machine back, though... any ideas?

Settlement Maps Not Working [Bug]

After multiple restarts, save scumming and galaxy hopping I cannot find a way to get these maps to work. I use one on a planet, and it literally disappears from my inventory doing nothing. I have my first settlement on an awful planet and need to change it, but the maps do not function the way they are supposed to. From my ship (both landed and in space) the maps disappear. The only time it has worked was on my freighter and this worked only once out of 5 or 6 tries on it. I have restarted the game in single player and multiplayer and they just do not want to work. It’s so weird that it seems to be random or related to some unknown variable in game. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this I’d appreciate it.

Is anyone still having issues with game crashing? [Discussion]

I have an xbox one that is a couple of years old but is in relatively good condition. I might have to face the reality that nms is no longer "playable" on old gen consoles.

When the settlement update released, the game crashed every 5-10mins. The devs released updates and fixed it to the game crashing every few hours. I have to be near a save point/beacon at all times and use it after I've done somthing in order to not loose any progress.

Online play on old console it also "unplayable". Somtimes heading into the anomaly will crash the game as it struggles to load other players. Being in a system with a friend is very likely to crash the game too. It's also pretty bad with lag but nms on xbox has been like that forever and it isnt new.

Playing offline seems to be doable but with serious caution. Saving every few minutes of gameplay. Crossing my fingers when using a teleporter. I found a settlement and it crashed. I relogged and then built a base near by until an ai ship flew overhead and the game crashed again. I say "playable" because it technically is, but you need to take measures or make sacrifices in how you play the game.

Is it like this for other xbox one players ? Or is the reality that my old gen console can't handle nms anymore ? Which would be a sad reality since I've had it from day 1 when it came to xbox. If theres other ways to get the game running smoothly then I'm all open for ideas. Reinstalling the game seems to only work for so long.

How many buildings in a settlement? [Question]

First time builder looking for suggestions for mining/farming [Discussion]

I recently started playing NMS again and have been enjoying myself quite a lot. I think I just found a good spot to set up a mining facility to get some nice passive income. Managed to find a great Tropical planet with Activated Cadmium. I used the scanner to analyze a deposit and found one with an electro-magnetic power source about 350u away. Are there any tips or suggestions experienced players could offer? Start with the power first then build the mining part? Should I set up a base of operations in the middle and just pipe the materials there? Thanks for the help, much appreciated! :-)

Galactic Hub or UAS? [Discussion]

I’ve been getting back into NMS lately, and want to join a civilization to start my biggest base yet. The problem is, there are so many civilizations out there it’s hard to choose. I’ve narrowed my choice down to the Galactic Hub or the Union of Allied Systems.

The Galactic Hub seemed like the largest civilization to me, but the Union of Allied Systems seems to be far more active (with the new Hilbert Division literally started up yesterday). Is there anybody who has more insight about the two groups in terms of player activity, crowdedness, and group identity?

Does anyone know which ship is generally the "bigger" one?

Terraforming dead planets [Suggestion]

I wish they would add atmosphere generators that worked like base computers. They could create a range that would be shielded in an artificial atmosphere. There would be gravity. Over time, one of the ground types from a lush planet would start to grow. You could increase the rate of growth and range of atmosphere by building plant farms. A whole community/group of friends could transform the entire planet over time. Missions could be added around this, and the final product of these missions would be a weather changing device that allowed you to change the weather inside the range of your base on any planet.

I want this sooooo much.

Possible bug: settlement construction asking for “null” resources? [Question]

Asked yesterday but no answers, so I’ll try again.

Playing on a PC. Building out my settlement, and I have a construction stuck in final phase because it’s asking “Give resources ()”. There’s nothing in the parentheses. Can’t get past this.

my wish for future updates to settlements and starships [Suggestion]

Hi there,i have been a follower of this game since pre release. i have kept tabs on all the news and updates on this game for 5 years. i really admire the universe that sean has created and evolved.though i only got hands on this game very recently and i thoroughly enjoy it. while i enjoy playing i cant think of the limitless possibilities this game could be .

my suggestion or just wish for future updates are.. 1. starship with interior . many posts have been made about this and still i cant stop imagine that how cool it would be to have starships with procedural as well as customisable interiors. having our own starship with option for a crew of 2 to 4 people will be just spectacular.you know hello games have already proven with procedural settlement interiors that starship interiors are achievable if they plan to work on their fan favorite feature. this will actually motivate more exploration as we have our portable base in form of starship. Then we are not bound to planet base to have a luxury of leisure time in a cozy room. Along with this a starship autopilot mode will be icing on the cake. Imagine sipping coffee while watching through your starship window the clouds the seas, mountains or the dark space with stars while on a inter-planetary ride. it would be definitely splendid isn't it? ironically my next suggestion is opposite to the first one.

my second wish or suggestion is enhanced quest system which is now highly possible with the introduction of settlements. the settlement defence mission are highly limited as the enemies are just sentinels also i could not see the npcs fighting along with us in case of an attack. combat can be greatly improved if as a overseer we chose a race as a faction so that conflict arise between us and other factions. there could be non player owned settlements from any of the races with a npc overseer lets call...

Settlement Building Bug? (Xbox One) [Question]

Hey all, sorry if this has already been a question, but I couldn’t find a straight enough answer online. I had an initial settlement, started the quest and built the overseers office. However the metal construction wall never removed itself from the doorway, so I couldn’t enter the office. The planet was also super hazardous, so I thought to hell with it, I’ll go into another system and create a new settlement.

I gave up my old one and was able to make a new settlement just fine as well as it’s overseer office. Now that I’m looking at the terminal though, there’s no additional actions to build and I can only settle citizen disputes. Is not being able to build additional buildings through the terminal a bug or do I just not understand how to work settlements?

It’s WAY too dark in basic structures, lights don’t do enough. Text us too small. [Discussion]

This may be a middle age issue.

I love the new items. Their variety, the textures, the new look of basic structures, and the rest is all very nice.

The game is way too dark or too bright in many places as it is, but trying to light basic structures without a lamp every six inches is annoying af.

Not only that, but the UI becomes impossible to work with if I increase fonts enough to read the tiny text, and it’s already in the way when building.

The game = amazing.

Lighting and UI = suck.

If you don't want to see tons of comms and clutter on the HUD when going to high traffic areas... [Information]

... you can disconnect from the internet (actual system disconnected, not just disabled multiplayer). Since multiplayer came out way after release, you'll only receive the imported data of other player's games when connected to the net. You can reconnect to the internet whenever you want after travel. to those who dislike the clutter of comms and bases at hotspot planets.

Settlement moved planets before I accepted Overseership [Bug]

I was waiting to finish out all the base-staffing quests and all their subsequent quests to fully accept the Settler quest. I got to the point where I landed at the settlement to just look at it - and it was on a Lush planet! Which I liked!

If I just keep exploring will it hop back to the lush world? What happened? Any help would be great thanks.

Settlements still say claimed by someone else? [Question]

Hey all, I have been logging in about every day to check and see when they fix the bug i am experiencing but alas no luck as of yet. I havent seen anything in the patch notes about it so I am just checking to see if anyone has any similar experiences.

I found a great settlement right next to a cool nexus so Im tryna wait until the settlement bugs are fixed so that I can develop that one since its such a cool location.

But my settlement first had the bug where I couldnt get past the first step of building the overseer office. Then I got the settlement claimed by someone else bug since I switched to a different settlement and tried to go back to the original one. Now I still get the settlement claimed by another bug and it says that it has 0 citizens, 0 happiness, etc. Although I am not sure if the fact that i reported the settlement accidentally has anything to do with it either.

Is anyone still getting any of these settlement bugs or have any fixes?

Hey all, I have been logging in about every day to check and see when they fix the bug i am experiencing but alas no luck as of yet. I havent seen anything in the patch notes about it so I am just checking to see if anyone has any similar experiences.

I found a great settlement right next to a cool nexus so Im tryna wait until the settlement bugs are fixed so that I can develop that one since its such a cool location.

But my settlement first had the bug where I couldnt get past the first step of building the overseer office. Then I got the settlement claimed by someone else bug since I switched to a different settlement and tried to go back to the original one. Now I still get the settlement claimed by another bug and it says that it has 0 citizens, 0 happiness, etc. Although I am not sure if the fact that i reported the settlement accidentally has anything to do with it either.

Is anyone still getting any of these settlement bugs or have any fixes?

Cargo Exosuit [Question]

Hello !

I was wondering if you can lose the content of your Exosuit Cargo if you eventually die in Survival mode ?

I remember being killed by animals on a planet, loosing all of my stuff, but I didn't notice if I lost the cargo of my exosuit.

Thanks

Are you not allowed to teleport inside your freighter? [Question]

I put a teleported inside my freighter, I can teleport to other teleportes but from my other teleporters on planets, I can’t teleport back to my freighter.

Actually, it doesn’t even give me teleporting back to the freighter an option when choosing to teleport.

How do I find a new settlement? [Question]

I already have one but I want a different one. Ik you can only have one at a time. I traveled to a new system and used a settlement chart but nothing shows up. I tried 3 and nothing happened.

Help me help you with a new update by copying and pasting to the zendesk.com [Suggestion]

I would really like to see space station races start a race at a new vendor in that empty room by the trade terminal race your friends, race npcs, or a time trial winning can give you new s class upgrades for your ship, multitool, exosuit, etc race around the middle of space while seeing those crazy anomalies off to the side

Guys copy and paste this to zendesk.com so they can see enough of the same update request from the fan base

Questions about researchable upgrades offered at Nexus. [Question]

Okay I’ve been playing a few days now, I’m not sure how it’s normally played but I’ve almost nothing when it comes to structures. I’m primarily focused on following the Atlas mission and upgrading/buying my immediate equipment - Exosuit, Starship, Mini-Tool, and then get to Freighter upgrades if there is such a thing.

Since these have been my main concerns my visits to the Nexus are basically non-existent besides popping in now and again to buy extra Exosuit inventory slots so in all honesty I don’t really know what the Nexus is for.

My main question is many of the upgrades researchable at Nexus have low class ratings and almost none go to S-class and I’ve been buying many S-class upgrades at space stations so my question is is there any point to research at Nexus? Despite low class listing do any of the upgrades do unique/specific things I’d want/need?

Also do you need the actual part for the upgrades to effect? I’ve assumed so the whole game so far but noticed I had an underwater oxygen upgrade for the Aeration Membrane that was working without the membrane. At first I assumed it was built in but later found it was it’s own item and have now found and installed it.

Lastly, is there other stuff about the Nexus that I should be doing and just don’t know? It seems really busy every time I’m there.

Help? [Bug]

I have been warping many times and still can’t find my alien host for my ship .I have complete every mission but can’t find it in the galaxy map. I have used to many warp hypercells and it’s driving me insane someone help. If it’s intentional someone tell me.

How picky should I be when selecting a planet for my first main base? [Question]

Been playing approx 40 hours. Loving NMS, already was lucky enough to find an exotic guppy ship.

I’m currently exploring and trying to find a planet for my first main base. I found a decent one (grass, oceans, flora, fauna, the works) except it has extreme heat rain storms.

Should I hold out and search for a perfect paradise planet? What do you folks do?

EDIT: The planet in question also has quite aggressive Sentinels, but also gravitino balls, if those factors weigh it one way or the other.

EDIT 2: Euclid galaxy, if that helps.

Trapped inside geometry what are my options [Bug]

Ps4 single-player multi player is available

As above after landing too close to a large structure as I left the ship i was spawned inside a pillar much higher than my ship.

Reload autosave still trapped

Tried base building... caused a manual save

I did some research and sounds like multi-player is my best bet but no one I knows plays

What do I do, and has anyoneelse had a similar experience. I'm not thrilled about RIP 40 hours.

My suggestions on game content [Suggestion]

•Putting a crew together. This one's going to be a few changes all on one. But have gunners on our star ships. Ones our crew can shoot out of.

•Have a crew join our starship.

•Use the crew to go purchase huge amounts of merchandise to take to another Galaxy on a frigate for lots of money.

•During those missions defend against pirates and our crew hops into the starship to defend our freighter. Have pirates get behind us and our crew shoots out the back to defend our starship.

•Have our combat frigates help defend.

•Cut scenes with our frigates and working together to defend against pirates.

•Recruits for the starship should have different attributes like the frigates. Meet them in different galaxies at trade stations.

•Recruits can also go to our settlement to start filling up the settlement.

•Settlements with actual raids from Sentinels. And actual defence. Like turrets. Have the settlers help defend.

•Cats and Dogs for pets. All of the creatures are pretty hideous.

I would pay for expansions like this.

20 hours in, still clueless. [Information]

Im sure this type of thing has been posted ad naseum but im not sure where to find answers..

Ive been playing for 20 hours roughly and know the absolute basics and have basicly been doing a bit of the story and trying to grind nanites and units for whenever im gonna need them.

Long story short i thought this was gonna be an action game with dogfights in space and the like but now im starting to wonder if im just wasting my time.

While i think the exploring is kind of neat in some cases it just seems so monotonous and theres no real action like out of those 20 hours ive gotten in exactly two dogfights which lasted maybe five minutes each the rest of the time has been spent doing... basicly nothing

Im not a super gamer so i did find this game overwhelming for sure im just wondering if maybe im not focusing on the right things. Like i want to get an awsome ship and pimp out my gun and suit so i can go be a space pirate or mercenary or whatever which is why i spent so much time grinding for units and now nanites but im wondering if thats 3ven a thing like whats the point of this game really?

If anyone is interested in taking me under their wing so to speak or even giving me some pointers or send me in the right direction id really appreciate it

Thanx in advance 🖖

Can't get to the galactic core! [Question]

I know this has been asked a thousand times, believe me, I've researched it. 😫 None of the solutions I've read or watched have worked. I'm sitting in a system, Euclid galaxy. In the galaxy map screen it says galactic core 2,916 LY.

I switch to destination galactic core. I have gone to free look mode and followed the gold line and there are no systems left along the line. All fuels are full. If followed all the guides and nothing has worked.

What have I missed?

#

Is there a list of portal codes for every galactic center? [Question]

I know there is a universal code that takes you somewhat near the center of every galaxy, but every time I have attempted gaining access to every galaxy via the center using this code, my game bugs out and prevents warping to the center by the time I reach Budullangr. I'm currently going through the task of accessing every galactic center's portal code by using a method that seems to be working and hasn't bugged yet (ship save at portal before using the code from the previous center, then just warping til I hit the final jump, grab code via photo mode, reload autosave, jump directly to final system for jump, warp away!)

If there is an authentic list of multiple codes that anyone is aware of that would be awesome. If not, I guess I'll keep writing these codes down and maybe make my own for whomever else has the itch to catalog every NMS galaxy.

Tell me what I should do. [Discussion]

I have about 105 hours in No Man's Sky. I have 3 S class ships, 2 S class multitools, an S Class settlement, more units and nanites than I would ever need, I have unlocked all things that you can unlock on the space Anomaly with nanites and Salvaged Data. I have done a good amount of things, now I know you must be laughing at me asking about things to do but I really do want to do something as I feel like I log on, check on my settlement and then log out. I have not completed all the side missions but I have completed the main Story. I do the missions on the Space Anomaly that reward you with quicksilver but these only take about an hour and don't last if I have a couple hours to play. Tell me things to do that take a good amount of time and are somewhat fun. Thanks in advance

Weapons research -destroy depot mission [Bug]

So I got to the location and figured it would be easier to destroy the depot with my ship. Turns out it needed to be done with the multitool. Now I am stuck with the destroyed depot and no way to further the quest line. I tried reloading my save but it was too late, it had already saved after the deed was done. Is there any way to restart the quest or complete it another way?

#

Has the game changed that much? [Question]

I have a Fighter with 42 inventory slots and a white outline around them. According to posts on here from December 2020 you can expand beyond that, except that I've increased it from C to A and that outline hasn't moved. So was that original person full of it, or has it become so you can't increase the max inventory your ship comes with?

Moving or removing my base teleporter removes a bunch of base parts [Bug]

See title.

I just spent a few hours re-doing a whole bunch of my base. I started deleting and moving interior parts until I got to my main base teleporter.

Whenever I remove it or move it, about two dozen base parts including most of my base staff just disappear. Saving or uploading the base does nothing. Restarting the game does nothing. No matter what I do, if I move the teleporter, it just wipes out a huge chunk of my base.

Any idea what's going on and how to stop it?

Hello Games, we need to have a real talk. [Dire Suggestion]

There's something beautiful about you. Many things, if I were to sit and count.

You've succeeded in bringing together a wonderful community in the midst of an industry hellbent on squeezing every last copper it can out of us all. An entire generation has and will continue to grow up under mismanagement, loose values, and predatory practices that are already considered so common place that even my pointing this out will likely bring naysayers who would gladly pay you for more content, piece by piece, if only they had hands large enough to spread cheeks. And they'll protest there's nothing wrong with that.

But I'm not here to talk about that with them.

No, I'm here, hoping (perhaps foolishly) that you can read this and take it to heart, because while your reputation is rather exemplary now, it wasn't always so, and we both know that.

I'm not concerned with what you did or didn't do, or why you did or didn't do it. I'm concerned about what's being done presently, and how certain features need to be addressed.

This is a hard conversation and the preamble is over:

I've had enough of Telamon. Enough.

For five years, I've repeatedly been told that the Ion Battery placed into my Exosuit has recharged my equipment. For five years, I've been reminded that my Hazard Protection is low, and when resolved, that, wouldn't you know, my equipment has been recharged. For five years, I've been informed of every single minute detail that has any sort of relevance, and, when failing to do so vocally, have had such communications relayed to a HUD that is so intrusive and insulting that I now consider this an abusive relationship.

Mr. Murray, can you please explain to me why this is so?

And, if you'd be so kind, explain also why this same HUD - when turned off via the Options Menu - continues to accumulate all the messages and notifications it can holster,...

Steamvr very buggy and laggy in this game [Answered]

The frame counter of steamvr keeps going into the red and it's basically just a rectangle of game area in front of you - if you look to the sides, it's almost like you're playing it in 2d. I've had this problem with euro truck sim as well - only running it in oculus mode and not steamvr works great for that one.

Does anybody know how to obtain a multitool with the Incinerator or Plasma Resonator upgrade or is it possible at all? [Question]

“Awakening” Hyperdrive Blueprint bug [Question]

Hey guys,

I did hit the search bar but haven’t found a solution to my dilema. I am starting the game and decided to visit my friends solar system in the middle of the quest, where I was supposed to go follow a distress signal that leads me to the destroyed freight and has the hyperdrive blue prints. Well now it says that the mission is in another system, I can’t teleport back to whatever system it is in. On my saved locations there is no other system than the one I’m in.

So I was wondering what solutions I could go for?

I read that every blue print is in the Anomaly, so if I join a friends game and he summons their anomaly will I be able to buy the blue print?

Hopefully going to my friends saved game I could possibly continue the mission.

Or lastly, I read I could reset the mission but I can’t seem to find the option to do so. I’m on PS5 btw.

Stuck on a mission. Don’t read if you don’t want spoilers! [Question]

I’m currently stuck on the mission “The First Traveller - Null, the Stranger.”

The description for the mission is: Learn the Glyph Sequence for this planet— Charge the glyphs to gain control of the portal and learn the glyph sequence for this world.

There wasn’t any specific planet that was marked with a mission waypoint so I decided to warp back to my home base and started the search for a monolith and portal. I’ve charged the portal and ‘learned’ the sequence but the mission hasn’t progressed at all.

I’m wondering if I needed to get the sequence for the original first portal I went through. I’m hoping thats not the case because I don’t think I can find it again.

#

Are all ship models in a system available as crashed ships? [Question]

I love hunting down crashed ships but i can't manage to find some of the models appearing in the space station or on outposts at crash sites. For example, a system has 7 different models of fighters, I only get the same 3 or maybe 4 models appearing at crash sites.

Even in a system with only one planet I cleared about 30 crash sites, I only got 4 different shuttles, 3 different fighters, 2 different explorers, 2 different haulers, no exotic.

Is it just bad luck or is the model pool of crashed ships in a system limited to a selection of the original model pool?

Thank you Galactic Angels. [Discussion]

Thank you Galactic Angels.

You’ve made playing NMS such a pleasant experience. While giving away your time and very precious resources to new explorers like me in the Anomaly, you not only put a smile on people’s faces when they discover the free loot, but you are bringing us all back to the root essence of the game … Exploration, discoveries and building without having to worry about money or farming it. I unfortunately don’t have names to share as the exchanges were mostly done AFK, but I’m sure you, Galactic Angels, are not doing it for the fame. Once again, this message goes to all of you who are making this game a true enjoyment with total freedom.

THANK YOU

My NMS Adventure - 10 days (130H) exploring - Receiving items almost every time I’m in the Anomaly. (One of the first time I received 250M from 5 Starship AI valves, and yesterday someone filled my exosuit with AI Valves which I then sold for 3B+)

Game stops working whenever I exit my ship [Bug]

Anytime I exit my ship, I get the Windows ‘Not Responding’ error, and I basically have to close it. I have tried waiting for it to come back and have left it for a few hours and still eventually have to close it. I’ve tried different bases, different planets, even in my freighter, and every time I try to exit my ship I get the error and have to close. Worst part, it doesn’t let me get out and save in time before the error, so I’m unable to save ANY progress.

PC players, is there an error log or some kind of diagnostics tool I can run to find out why? Or has this happened to anyone else and a fix has been found? Could it just be an issue with the update that needs to be fixed in a patch? Again, no error code or anything on No Man’s Sky’s side, just the not responding BS. I wanted to post here in case someone else had the issue before going to NMS support.

TL;DR - PC player, game freezes anytime I exit my ship no matter what planet, base, freighter, etc. Is it a bug I need to report or something easily self-fixed.

Thanks!!

This community is amazing (Appreciation post) [Discussion]

Hello!

First a backstory, TL;DR at the end:

I bought the game back on launch on PS4 and I was among the 5 people who actually enjoyed the game for what it was. It was not perfect by any means but I love space and I was really into the game. (After having checked how much the game has changed, it is clear now how much worse it was though.)

I put a good 50+ hours into the game but then I sort of stopped playing and each year with the new updates I usually checked back but could never really get into the game. I also forgot most things so I considered starting a new character, but I had like 10 million Units so I considered myself rich (maybe it was considered rich around launch? I'm not sure) and had decent ship and upgrades so did not want to restart.

This year with Expedition 3 I did just that, I restarted the game, I followed some guides on how to complete the Expedition. I didn't mind starting fresh since we got lots of upgrades by basic and I had 10 million units already by the time I finished.

I already spent around 35+ hours on this save and i really enjoy it. On the Anomaly I was shocked when I was randomly traded 10k Runaway Molds and saw what I could do with it. Then peolpe traded me 50-75 million Units worth of items to sell, now I'm above 200 million. Sure, some could say this takes away from the challenge but I play this game more as an exploration than survival game.

Then, I started working on the Living Ship quest and I got the point where I have to get the glyphs. I followed a guide here made by Bad Wolf that lists space stations with guaranteed travelers for Glyphs and you only need the first 2 glyphs to access them. Sure enough, on the first teleport I saw lots of welcome messages but I also saw a planet having several Runaway Mold farms that people set up and shared with others so random people, like me, can get Nanites for free....

#

Does anyone else give creature eggs to fellow travelers in the anomaly? [Discussion]

So, I have my main pet, but I also have a couple other pets and whenever I think of it I collect all their eggs and the next time I go to the Anomaly I find random people to give them to. Usually it's someone in the starter ship because I assume they don't have a pet yet, but not always.

Does anyone else do that? I think it would be neat to receive an egg and not know what kind of pet it was until I hatched it somewhere, but I don't know if anyone else thinks that way too.

Question about Bases [Question]

Hello! I'm generally new to NMS, I've been playing for a few days on and off, and I've warped to another solar system a time or two now. In the first planet I was on where the game started, I built a very small base, with only a few things around.

What's the general strategy on bases? Should I build several? Should I build a main one on a place I like and warp to it sometimes? Should I even bother with making one?

I haven't been back to the original once since I warped away. My thoughts have been to build one in each solar system I go to, but I'm not sure how many I will be visiting.

Thanks for any insight!

Curious... [Question]

Lately, I have been pushing new galaxies. Going through the center, dropping a base computer at a portal, and then immediately going on to the next galaxy. I have a worthless multi-tool and ship that I use to do this so I don't spend a lot of time repairing stuff.

Anyway, I recently finished upgrading my freighters' warp unit and have pretty good range on it now. Can I use the freighter to enter the center of a galaxy? If I do that, will I avoid damaging my multi-tool, ExoSuit and freighter? Help is appreciated greatly!

I recently started playing on Survival mode, and while I was at the Space Anomaly some generous traveller LOADED me with everything I could need.

Do i hatch the egg and then click the "restart current mission" to change planet and the color? Does the shape change too?

If you give me a brief but understandable explanation i'll kiss you on the forehead

NMS is truly a living sci-fi experience. [Discussion]

I remember counting down on the night of launch, not really knowing what to expect. I remember the backlash about how it wasn't the game that was promised... and on and on.

Now, however many patches and updates later, five years into the games life cycle we have a community that openly trades valuable items that they have found on their travels. A bunch of landmarks built by travelers that sightseers can visit and enjoy. We have a slew of travel photographers that regularly post pictures from adventures, there are groups that have formed through the community that are now canonized with memorabilia in the quicksilver shop on the Anomaly. There is a whole network of coordinate exchanges that cover everything from exploitable mineral deposits to S class exotic ships. All of these things came from the players and Hello Games has done a pretty good job of integrating the elements that have come up organically in the community. It has been really fun experiencing the evolution of the day one product to what we have today. Being able to live in a game where you can see something truly unique- be it an amazing view or one of the palatial bases that someone has built from their own vision- has been one of the most gratifying aspects of the game.

So, to all of you out there- Keep making this game the gem that it is. Keep building. Keep traveling. Keep looking out for each other. And most of all, thanks.

I noticed the text on the item already describes all the glyphs you have to find, does that mean I can go straight to the portal without starting the quest? Thanks

New-ish to the game. Asking for some advice. [Build]

I've been playing the game for a while and I am absolutely loving it. Small problem though, I want to build stuff other than pre-fab boxes but can't find any info on how to run electricity into something I build. Does anyone have a beginner's guide on building houses and stuff?

Minotaur weapons [Question]

So, I've come to the conclusion that fighting sentinels attacking my settlement on foot is a pain, so I'm using my Minotaur and doing pretty darn good. But I'd like to upgrade to better weapons, but the only things I've found are for the mining laser, the terrain manipulator (useless on them), and plasma charges. The plasma charges work the best, but there's not much range to them and lobbing them like a softball is a pain.

Where's the pulse spitter and scattergun equivalents? I'd give anything for a Doom-style rocket launcher, even though I killed myself a lot with one of those things. An Infra-Knife Accelerator would be AWESOME!

Is Multi-Tool Swapping bugged? [Question]

I recently purchased a new multi-tool as i was under the impression you could have more than 1. Installed all of the upgrades on the new on and then tried swapping between the multi-tools and found new one back to what it was when i bought it. All upgrades were gone, no materials or money was returned to my inventory.

Is this common. Tested several times and always same result even with a save.

My fix was revert to previous save and strip all upgrades before purchasing new one on both of my multi-tools. I then swapped my original tool for the new third Multi-tool (Class B). I added upgrades to the new B class tool and now have the C class sitting in inventory with no upgrades. A day later I tried testing again by adding a simple upgrade to the class c and when swapping multi-tools the upgrade on the C class was removed again.

Both are pistol types. Does it need to be a pistol and rifle or is it just overall bugged at the moment? Or am I just missing something?

Home planet changed during multiplayer [Bug]

I was playing with multiplayer active, but I went to an anomaly and met up with a few players. I ended up having one of them come check out my base on a paradise planet with low sentinel activity. After they joined, I'm alerted that my planet switched to having aggressive sentinels. Is there a way to fix this or prevent it in the future??

Base settlement help (old one, where you assign overseer, build a construction station). Can I change my location? If so what am I looking for? [Question]

First, I have a freighter and have spent quite a bit of time farming units multi-tools and ships. Here is as much information that I can give on what's going on. Just for a point of reference.

The issue:

I can't really find its location apparently. At one point I remember it changing to my base near the settlement that you get from the distress signal. I built several small bases as I jumped around ship hunting, and farming....even in a new Galaxy. My base computer quest is saying off planet for every location. Face expansion quest is saying install construction station.

Usually if I need help finding the next step in a mission I select that and I open up the Galaxy map and there's a marker to identify. For this mission and base expansion I am no longer seeing a marker on any signal just the comments that is located off planet. I did see a star inside a circle that is some kind of marker but there is no base that lets me download information for signify that this is my base to build on.

I have progressed as far in the Artemis quest as Apollo has told me I have to do something with my base but he will help me with Artemis

I recently went through 2 black holes. 1 took me to Calypso Galaxy, 2nd closer to center of Calypso. I have built 2 bases in this Galaxy.

How do you change your base? is it a matter of uploading? Do I need to drop a new base computer and build nothing?

What am I looking for if I'm able to pick a new location. Have about six different Paradise bases but they all have something different going on aggressive Sentinels, aggressive fauna, boiling rain... What's my ideal planet type and what is the least worrisome issue to deal with? For example I'm pretty used to dealing with toxic rain in the beginning my first base was on a winter...

Do travelers just not show the way to their unmarked graves anymore? [Question]

I’m about 40 hours into my perma-death VR play through and I have not once had the option to give a traveler nanites to have them mark their grave for me. At this point, every traveler in space stations or Trading Posts is repeating dialogue I’ve already seen and not a single one has a grave option.

I’ve found three graves purely by chance. Am I missing some basic part of this?

Can I fully share my base with my spouse? [Question]

We're playing the "play game" option rather than the "multiplayer" one because I don't want to play with strangers, it's just my husband and myself. But despite being in the same group, it seems like the one who places the base computer down is always the owner and the other person is just a guest. Is there any way to fully share a base or somehow "be together"? For example, how there are tribes in Ark Survival Evolved.

Base too large to upload? How to share large Activated Indium farm to all players [Question]

Hello,

I made an Activated Indium farm which can produce 7350 Activated Indium per hour, but the base turned out to be too large to upload to Hello Games servers.

I built this base as an intended donation to all players but now I'm not sure what to do. Is there any way to somehow share this base? Or are there other creative solutions to this? Like can I make the Activated Indium automatically deposit into a storage container that other people can access?

Alone Amidst the Multiverse [Discussion]

Living Ship Upgrades [Question]

So I've been trying to get upgrade modules for my Living Ship and it's taking forever. I know that the only way to get them is to pulse around a system and hope to Sean you come across a Living Egg, but most systems it never happens and I just run into traders every time. I have tried using an Anomaly Detector and reloading if it's not a Living Egg (which, so far, it never is). This method also seems to only ever yield the same encounter unless I warp to another system and warp back. Is there a trick to making it happen more often or perhaps certain types of systems have a better chance of it? Also, is there a way to increase the chance of getting certain types of upgrade modules so I'm not getting upgrades for Spewing Vents when I really need Scream Suppressor and Singularity Cortex upgrades?

How can I get my friend to keep up? [Question]

Playing in multiplayer my buddy is relatively new to the game. He takes a bit longer selling and upgrading ect. That's all good.

So often I take off exploring and he catches up later, except when I warp two or more systems, and his ship's range needs multiple jumps. We fumble through the direction ect. I mean how can I possibly direct him in a 3D map???

So, I thought, oh just leave and rejoin. Dropped you in my system before, should do it again. Nope. He's in the original system when he first joined.

So I tried getting him to portal to my base I throw down. Doesn't show in his list of bases.

I tried telling him to teleport directly to me from groups tab in portal at space station. But it's greyed out for him.

We eventually both went to the anomaly, and started a nexus mission, just to get warped to the same system.

After that we're good again. I have a hard time believing a nexus mission is the easiest sure fire way to meet up again when we get lost...I've learned to just wait for him now which sorta kills the exploring thing when he's reading everything on screen in the upgrade vendor.

1st time ever disappointed by Hello Games [Discussion]

So, my 1st time ever disappointed by Hello Games, since I first picked up the game.

I missed all the hype, so when I started I loved even the initial game as released on PS4

I'm now over 1000 hours into playing, and throughly enjoy the game, from the day I got it, through all the updates, until Frontiers.

Its not an issue with bugs

Its not an issue with the new content

Its the devastating decision by Hello Games to remove the wood, concrete, and metal building items from all NEW saves. To add to the frustration, its not removed from the game, so its not a gameplay performance decision, its simply denied if you wish a new save from now on.

I simply can't understand this devastating decision.

All the base building I ever did, was using these items, my absolute favorite building pieces, now locked down to just my 2 old saves.

Worst of all, I had deleted my creative save with everything unlocked to make room for the expeditions

Now those items are gone for good in creative mode.

5 years of unending progress, and now an extreme step backwards and a cutoff of existing building items in a major way.

Whats worse, many of those items have no equivalent in the new items, full glass windows and roofs for example.

Sigh, I realize no developer can have a spectacular record forever, but this choice by hello games is the 1st, in 5 years, where the developer crippled play, on purpose, and left out new players from a huge part of the building inventory, and crippled new saves for older players as well

NMS still remains my favorite game, but for the 1st time ever, I understand the disappointment and frustration felt by so many at the initial release

I simply can't understand why they would hobble play for console players in this manner.

What did we do to deserve such punishment....

Is duplication frowned upon? [Answered]

I recently received over 50 AI valves from a player, and of course, sold them all, obviously, they were likely duped. Is duplication frowned upon in the NMS community? I've seen quite a few people doing it and it seems pretty easy. What do you guys think?

PSVR Construction Mevement [Question]

I've been away from the game for a while.

I like to play PSVR with the DS4 controller.

I could have sworn that before, while building at a base, I could use the right analog stick to change the direction I was looking, like I can whilst not building.

Did they take this away? Or am I forgetting how hard it was to build with this setup?

Flying Eel with long trailing tendrils (Furisode Unagi) [Screenshot]

This is the most difficult catch yet as they seldom glitch to the ground. However, they have long trailing tendrils that makes them unique just like the hanging sleeves of a Kimono worn by young Japanese women. All in all, took 1 hour to tame this companion and it's totally worth it.
