As an end game player that has done pretty much all, what are some things you do for fun despite having completed everything? [Discussion]

I am interested to know what the endgame content of no mans sky is. I am a mid game player and will soon have maxed out stuff and not have much to do. But I want to keep continue playing since its a endless game.

also, doing a new save isnt a option for me because I really don't wanna redo getting my inventory space maxxed and redo all the primary missions. I'm not a fan of the grind.

A few ideas [Discussion]

The ability to use your friends storage on their freighter or spawn more then one freighter in a galaxy.

More slots for pets and ships.

Maybe a dumb question? How can I return to a system where I didn’t check into the station? [Question]

I’ve tried googling but I’m not getting what I want .... SO, I found I planet I really loved, I set down a computer base thing (please bare with me, I’m new ish and don’t know the terms lol) but it’s not showing up on my “bases” when I try to warp from a space station. I’m guessing I didn’t actually check into the space station unfortunately. How can I find it again? I know the name of the galaxy

Did I break my settlement maps by trying one after reloading? [Question]

I had a pretty good planet picked out for my settlement and a stack of maps I planned to use to search for a settlement there (I've never done this before so maybe that's now how you do it).

I've used the settlement map twice before, once I didn't have the repupitation to be overseer of that settlement, and the 2nd was on the gek planet where I could take it, but the city sucked. so I reloaded and went to scan for the settlement again, and it didn't pull up the settlement anymore. it just consumed the map.

​

Now as I go from system to system, planet to planet, it's the same story, it just consumes the map and never pulls a settlement.

​

It all happened after reloading (I did a manual save right before using my map) so that's what makes me think I broke my savegame :(

​

Any suggestions?

Giant plant ate the holo-transmitter [Question]

So a giant fiery cactus bush as covering the interactable console part of the transmission tower I need to begin the Artemis questline. Its enormous and impenetrable, there is no way I can make my way to it now, and it seems to be seeded in, leaving the system and coming back, restarting, waiting a day, nothing seems to work.

Is there an easy way on console to find more of those holo-transmitters? I havent run across any naturally and I dont think any of the cartographic maps will point one out. Just want to begin that quest line.

Screen Freezing (Graphics, not controls or sound), leading to an eventual crash [Bug]

Okay I'm not seeing a SINGLE post about this anywhere here except about a year or two ago- but, for some reason, after I start playing (load in, start moving around doing stuff), my graphics just randomly freeze on a single frame, never to continue. I can still move around and do things, but as I can't see, I can't really do anything. This eventually leads to the game crashing. Sometimes, this takes about an hour to happen, other times, it can happen in a span of minutes back to back.

​

Please tell me I'm not the only person with this problem? And is there ANY way to fix it? I'm currently verifying files as we speak but I've no clue if that'll work.

​

Also: I've posted this to the bug form a while ago, but I've no clue if this is a "bug" that's from the Frontiers update so that's why I'm posting it. Please don't delete this, I'm not doing it as a report but as a "Am I the only one experiencing this", 'cause then I can at least focus on my hardware.

Did exotic ship spawn mechanics change? [Question]

I'm not looking to scrap exotics for money or anything, but I was looking for a certain kind of hauler I liked and ended up coming across two different systems (one after the other, surprisingly) with exotics. After 200+ hours in the game they're the only exotics I've come across, so naturally I bookmarked what systems they were in (both also spawned surprisingly early in the rotation)... but I didn't have the right ship i wanted to trade for either, so going back to both systems and waiting a lot now they're not spawning at all. Did the exotic spawning mechanics change so now they're not in normal rotation?

[Question] What are the things you're able to do in this game, and what are your personal opinions on them- are they fun, replayable, smart even? [Question]

I've been eyeing this game ever since Internet Historians video on its' recovery. I just wonder, what can you do in this game?

Build bases, bounty Hunt, customize ships, research creatures, screw around with guns/weapons, have space fights, explore space, just chill out in your ship, buy giant ships? This sorta stuff; am I missing anything, is there more to it, how's the soundtrack, does it compete with the "legends" like Bloodborne, Doom Eternal, Halo, Skyrim, Prey (games with good fitting soundtracks)?

I've watched some gameplay, heard about some stuff, but I figured reading it from the finger tips of actual players and the like would be a better insight than just some article writer who's played the game for 5 hours maybe. And I want to make it clear, I'm not bashing on this game, I think it looks really cool and interesting, hence why I wanted some feedback from actual players with their personal consensus of the game and what's what.

Got a question about the endgame and the meaning of 16. Spoiler warning. [Spoiler]

So to cut to it. How long is 16 minutes for the atlas? Ignoring the logic of us being able to reset the sim if it's not gonna do jack, how long til the universe ends persay? Also what happens then? Is the atlas actually broken or is it being ordered to shut down by its makers? If there's lore that answers all this lemme know. Maybe I'm just being a big bishhh for wanting more answers but I hate ending the story on a vague and kinda sad end.

Also the 16 mins thing reminds me alittle of Bible quotes, not getting preachy here sont panic- but the whole universe being made in 6 days, God resting on the 7th. How long is a day, even a minute then xp popped into my head when the characters were talking about however long the Sim could still run for

Oh and if the atlas really needs to fix the bugs in its data, why not just hard reset? Save data if it can but st worst just reset its universe like a pc factory resets and bam fixed.

Heads up - lost all Expedition rewards from restoring a save [Bug]

Had to factory reset my PS5 and discovered to my horror that the last NMS sync was my manual upload on the day Frontiers dropped. It must have disabled auto-sync, that's my problem and not the main issue here.

However restoring this save has removed all acknowledgement that I completed Expedition 3 on the NMS server. Previous Expedition rewards are redeemed and present despite those Expedition saves previously being deleted but my account, which is supposed to be where this info is saved now, has no record of Expedition 3.

I've reported this to ZenDesk but just making people aware there are issues here.

I'm doing it again which I don't mind, although I have a bug with the Minotaur Exopad and can't deploy it so... dunno how much patience I have left.

The community for this is game is so overwhelming sometimes [Discussion]

I mean that in the best way. If this game was online multiplayer on all the time, this'll be a different story. The fact that you can hop in and out of online play at any time is a game changer.

Everything about this community, whether it's here or the coordinate exchange sub, is about sharing. It's inspired me to take more pictures of my discoveries and upload them one day.

And all of that even after the absolutely disastrous launch of this game way back when.

I just think that's a really special thing. I'm glad I gave this game a shot again.

Help Finding Quest Location? [Question]

I have an issue where the quest target is not in the current system. When going in to the galaxy map its very far away, the jumps are at the limit, and after making 10 jumps its still shows like 5 jumps out. I'm not sure how far away I am, possibly VERY since I use black holes and portals roulette style.

Is there any way to see the actual destination so I can zip between my saved bases to travel a shorter distance?

For a few quests that seem like "base related quests" The Overseer: Visit the Overseer at his terminal Exocraft: Talk with the Engineer similar quests, etc.

​

I had this issue with a quest before:

Base Computer Archive

To fix that I went to my camp and reloaded. Then the quest market would update to my base.

Expeditions [Question]

I am newish to the game, I just started my first expedition last night. Played for about 2 hours, I'm currently working on scanning rocks to get my magnetic thing to repair my ship. So what I can gather is the whole point of a expedition is to complete predefined tasks that helps you progress to complete other tasks? And then you get special rewards?

Don't get me wrong I'm having fun, it's nice to have a more rigid path on what to do to progress.

But the description on the mode screen doesn't really define what you have to do in expeditions so is what I gathered pretty much correct?

Return to the space anomaly after i created a character... [Question]

Hello all,

I don't know if this was mentioned before but i created a character (permadeath) and when i was going to charge my Hazard protection with sodium (Quick Menu) i saw it was saying return to the space anomaly i pressed it and it worked... and it repaired my launch thrusters for not cost...

​

So how i did it is that before i log out from my Normal Character i used the space anomaly Teleporter and i went to my base and then saved then i went to create a new character...

and its seems that the option to return to space anomaly was in my new character too.

So is this a bug?

Confirming Bug - Wood Roof Corner Blocks Movement [Bug]

I finally picked up NMS after the Frontiers expansion release during the sale. I've logged a lot of time, and have really enjoyed it overall. I ran into an odd situation during building. I unlocked the wooden building components, and tried to build a basic rectangular structure that had the angled roof using the roof corners and angled roof pieces to give it that vaulted feeling.

It was only one wall-piece high, but I had my door in the corner attached to the wood roof corner piece. I tried to leave the building through that door, but it acted like I was trying to go through a wall and blocked me. I deleted the wall door piece altogether and it still blocked me. I deleted other wall pieces and had no issues leaving them, so I went ahead and deleted the roof corner piece and after that had no issues leaving. I walked outside, but the corner roof piece back, and couldn't walk back into the small structure anymore. I checked for blockage from terrain but it was clear.

Does anyone else have this issue? If it's me or something I'm doing? If it's a bug, I'll go ahead and report it but figured I'd post here first in case I'm doing something dumb. Thanks!

In repairing my ship there are two buildings (shelters) between my ship and the hermatic seal I have to find 900 units away. I also found a grave (glyph) right off the bat.

And then when I got my ship going I went up and right next door is a paradise planet, blue oceans, green grass and I land right next a patch of about 20 curious deposit (runaway mold).

"The Archaeologist" milestone rename suggestion (with meme!) [Suggestion, Archaeology, and a Meme!]

​

Admiral Picard playing the role of 'archaeogamers', thus rejoicing at the NMSArchaeologicalSurvey logo badge, while face-palming to the inaccuracy of "The Archaeologist" milestone

Hi NMS subreddit community,

I loved this game since I've first heard of it, and last update is an amazing journey to renew my love for it.

So what's all the fuzz about this game and archaeology? Well, that's what the meme is for!

Basically, NMS procedural development made it possible to apply actual archaeological methodology in-game. So professional archaeologists along with other players carried on a fan project named "No Man's Sky Archaeological Survey". The expedition was prepared even before the release of the game, and had a lot to deal with after the Atlas update's massive effects on players' bases. All of this was publicly shared here on Reddit, blogged about, got its on coverage in actual scientific papers, and was even the subject of a PhD thesis!

So yeah, there's pretty much something between archaeology and NMS.

But what about the second part of the meme?

As you may have guessed by now, other than a fellow Traveler, I'm also an archaeologist myself and I couldn't but notice a little misleading reference to my dearest discipline in Phase 4 (Milestone 8) of Expedition 3, started with the Frontiers update. I would therefore like to ask the developers to edit that bit of milestone called "The Archaeologist", by either renaming it or modifying its...

Can't complete Atlas Path questline, very confused [Question]

I found many people seeming to have this same problem online but no answers. I'm stuck at the very end of the Atlas Path. I have the Heart of the Sun in my inventory, and I located the next Atlas Station. However, when I board, there's no option to speak to it. I just see a long walkway (much longer than the usual one leading up to the panel where you talk with it) and a pedestal where it looks like you would be able to insert the seed; however, there's no prompt to do anything and nothing happens. My quest journal still just tells me to "Speak to the Atlas" with no clues on what else I'm supposed to do.

I tried looking up what the final mission is supposed to look like and apparently there should be ten slots to place one of each seed into, but not only are all these pictures a bit older (so I have no idea if it still looks like that since they change the layout of things in this game with every update), but that also doesn't seem to make any sense. Each seed was created from the previous seed, so I only have the Heart of the Sun. Do I really need to have a separate copy of EVERY seed before I can talk to it and finish the questline? As in, craft ten Captured Nanodes, then nine Englobed Shades, etc.? If so, the game really has not made that very clear, since the Atlas has been fine with only one seed each time I've spoken to it previously...

Is it just me? Occasionally the sentinel alert level reaches 100%... they "attack" my settlement, I get the alerts, alarms... get my gun ready... then .... nothing. I look around, not a sentinel to be found. What's the deal?

First Traveler Quest spawned inside a Volcano [Question]

I read on the PS4, the fix entails flying several light years away, and restarting the First Traveler quest. My problem is that I don't see any way to reset or abandon the mission in the log. Currently playing PC. I have the same issue with Atlas quests. I have one up, but it doesn't give me a new recipe and the waypoint never goes away.

​

How do I fix this First Traveler quest, and additionally is it possible to fix the atlas quest?

Ship woes! [Discussion]

Dang it game, why can’t I ever find good-looking ships >:( I’m tired of ships that just look like Lego bricks slammed together!

I’m still using the starter ship (gonna keep it just for collection’s sake), but I’m looking for ships made of cool parts, not exotics specifically, just good looking fighters or explorers and stuff.

WHY ARE THEY SO RAREEE.

Is this stealing? [Question]

Found a base of a fellow player from the anomaly. They have a nice setup for mining iridium which I had the option to take into my exosuit. I was sleptical of taking it since I was worried I'd end up stealing their hard work. I'm a relatively new player and wanted to understand if I can take these resources from their base without depleting it for them?

Base parts disappearing? [Question]

I have spent a long time building a base and I have recently found that items keep disappearing.

It mostly seems to be light fittings and furniture.

It has become very frustating as I spend ages placing something and then next time I am on a random selection of items or lights are missing.

My base isn't ridiculously big by any stretch and I have not had a notification of hitting a build cap.

Has anyone had this before or know what's happening?

How is it even acceptable that a game that came out 5 years ago still has primary quest breaking bugs? [Discussion]

We're not talking basic quests, The First Traveler spawned my portal in a Volcano. I can't drop it, and I can't get to the Portal. It's the primary quest of the game, that opens up significant game systems. The Base building quest is bugged, although that can be fixed. The Atlas quest is bugged, and I can't get any further.

I spent 100 hours playing this fucking game, and it's either reset it and try playing again, only to run into more problems or uninstall and forget all together.

Legendary game, but game breaking bugs have ruined it for me. Just disappointing.

Beginners Guides to NMS [Discussion]

Hello everyone,

I started playing NMS a few days ago and as many of you know it's a wide game with multiple main missions and stuff to do. So naturally I recurred to the beginners guides type of videos and after watch a lot of them I began to ask myself if this is actually the "way intended" to the game to be played.

From the videos that I saw, most of them teaches you how to make lots of money (units and nanites) by selling the ionized cobalt and chlorine and scrapping ships. This makes you never worry about any money in the game basically forever, but isn't this kind part of the fun in the game? But also if I choose not to make money this way, is there any other way? Does money in the game really matter that much? Isn't make money this way cheating?

I know that in the end is just play the game the way you have the most fun, but being new to the game I just wanted to talk about this.

Controller not recognized in GeForce Now No Man's Sky [Question]

Has anyone else had this issue? I mainly play the game through GeForce Now and since Frontiers dropped the game will not recognize any gamepad. Every other game I have works fine and the controller even works when I turn the steam overlay on while in No Man's Sky. But the game itself never switches over to the controller scheme or recognizes and input.

I tried plugged in / unplugged / several Xbox controllers / changing steam settings. If I play directly on the PC with a gamepad there's no issue. Its only on GeForce now that the controller is not found and only for No Man's Sky.

Having trouble with finding a common creature [Question]

Hello there!

I am quite new to to the game and have troubles finding "the last species on my list to get 3000 nanites".

It says that the creature is common and living under water.

So far i have discovered all other 12 species, even rare ones, but I keep swimming and swimming in lakes and seas and cannot find that last creature.

Is there another way to discover a creature but just looking around? Do I have to dig it out maybe? Do i have to make it spawn somehow? Or is this a bug?

Creature and egg limits? [Discussion]

I enjoy doing most things in this game. It's fun. One thing I really enjoy is finding nifty or cute new creatures.

I wish there were more slots available for them though. They don't seem really game breaking if we were able to have more. I unlocked the full six slots there are so figured well I could at least make eggs....but found out there was an egg limit that you could carry (that includes the ones in storage).

It sucks. I feel bad enough having to dismiss ones I like now can't even have have as many eggs as I'd like. I don't get why. They'd just be taking up my own storage space so why limit them? Wondering if there was some reason for the limits out of curiosity.

Does anyone think maybe they'll increase the limits of both or at least one or the other in the near future? Plus increased slots for more creatures would mean another way to keep spending nanites instead of them just sitting there.

No Man Sky Challenge Runs [Suggestion]

No Man Sky Challenge Runs

Options: Normal, Survival, and Permadeath (scales with difficulty)

​

No Starter Ship

Rules: No Glitches allowed. Start a new game on any difficulty mode other than creative mode. You cannot go to the starting ship in the game. You must search out a crashed ship and leave the planet with that ship. Keep in mind that when doing this, the game will allow the crashed ship to provide the mission to search out the Hematic Seal blueprint, thus it is not necessary to ever visit the original starter ship to leave the planet. The challenge is complete once all parts of the crashed ship are repaired. No Glitches allowed.

​

No Multi-Tool

Rule: No Glitches allowed. Start a new game. You cannot use the starting multi-tool the game gives you for mining or scanning. You can punch and obtain all the resources needed. You can also not use the starting ship for scanning purposes either. You cannot progress (i.e. leave) from the starting planet until you obtain a multi-tool from a vendor, minor settlement, or an NPC gives you one. This is to simulate waking on a planet with no multi-tool.

You can punch and obtain all the resources needed to pull this off, happy hunting.

​

​

No Hud

Rules: No Glitches allowed. Start a new game. Immediately once spawned go to setting and switch the setting for HUD to NO HUD. Without utilizing Hud leave the starting planet. (This one is slightly more difficult than it appears on the surface).

Iron Man Challenge

Rules: No Glitches allowed. Start a new game on Permadeath difficulty. You cannot use the starter ship for transportation. Your goal is to max out your inventory, but you must do it without leaving the first planet you spawn on. You can increase your inventory by finding drop pods. To utilize the drop pods you will need Anti-matter, Sodium Nitrate, and Ionized Cobalt. Anti-matter can...

Small Exploration Log [Fan Work]

I just Found an Exploration log I wrote a while back in my Google Docs files while doing something for School and thought some people may like it, so here it is.

(feedback welcome just try to bring it over in a friendly way)

​

​

I have Landed on a World Called Torvus II Orbiting the Nustrix star in the Hilbert Galaxy after running out of warp cells.

It is a Frozen world, its average night Temperature is -53.7°C, during day time it is only a few degrees warmer with 51.4°C.

Despite its Cold climate, the Planet is home to a vast Ecosystem, some specimen of Flora seems to gather nutrients through Different kinds of Radiation while a few others gather nutrient through Thermal Capture. One singular species the L. Quinitoe receives its nutrient through Radio waves however, why there are enough Radio waves to allow it to survive or how it can survive on it in the first place is beyond my Expertise and my Scanners. Another unique nutrient source is utilized by the A. Bodyruium which according to scans possesses Carnivorous roots, I believe it may consume small underground Fauna.

The planets Fauna is equally Diverse, many of the native lifeforms share chemically adapted blood and an unusual Metabolism that allows them to regulate their body temperature. I find it fascinating how a group of creatures can be so anatomically different but also similar in many aspects at the same time.

The planets Fauna also features some fairly unique Species. Like the Mammanak which seems to be highly intelligent proven by their complex social hierarchy. In addition, they don’t possess Bones and are similar in appearance to the Gek.

Another very interesting creature is the F. Besitplium which is a Bird-like flying lifeform with Pugneum-infused teeth allowing it to consume and digest Gravitino Balls, considering that both of these have a Connection to Sentinel Drones I wonder if...

Question / possible quest bug [Question]

I’m trying to finish the patterns in time quest, and I’m instructed to collect a vykeen artifact to “prove my honour” to them. I’ve been to the planet and collected the artifact over and over through reloading the save, each time I try to do it slightly different to potentially overcome the bug, but it never works. I collect the artifact but there is no mission progression. Idk if this will help or not but the specifics of the quest are to go to an underwater ruin and use the key to open one of the 3 buried chests. Again though, every time I go through the entire process and acquire the artifact, nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Obviously I know where he is. He is in my freakin' office, as always. That's why I remember him -- he's always there.

Indeed I posted about him in the first days of being an overseer, without knowing how... remarkable... he would become. Understandable, as this is how I first met him:

Now he is pretty much an icon in my settlement. Lately he's happier, at least (and I sure hope so, because we went from 30% to 98% "happiness" since I took charge...).

Trying to understand intergalactic travel (back and forth) [Question]

Fairly new, just finished the Expedition 3, got my portal unlocked, made a bit of money, built a modest base on my freighter. I can’t wrap my head around the galaxies. I read that you get to the center and move to the “next” since they go in order? And that you continue for something like 250ish of them.

Commonly online I see coordinates for Euclid and 2 others but after that hardly see any posts about them, are they vastly unexplored?

Once you move from one to the next can you use a base TP to go back and forth between them? If not how do you move backwards if the center always takes you to the next in line? I can’t be the only person confused here. I have watched several videos and none really give me a handle of the scope of this. I see hot to get to the center, how to go through (since your stuff breaks), and so on but don’t understand from there.

Do people just never leave Euclid to stay social? Sorry for the long post and hope it’s not a common boring post that I somehow don’t know how to search for.

Are there Griefers in NMS now? [Question]

I've recently returned to the game, so forgive my ignorance. I started playing in NMS in 2016 but haven't been gaming much for the most of the past year (bought a house and moved).

Anyway, I started an expedition save the other night, and early on, as I was gathering resources to repair my ship, another player landed next to me and dropped a base computer and a few base parts. As I kept playing, I couldn't build a signal booster because of course my ship was on the other guy's base, and I had to hike miles away to drop my base computer. I finally gave up and I haven't tried an expedition again.

So did I get griefed? Could I have continued repairing my ship, even with my own base computer being 1,000s of units away from my ship?

So I have been trying to find a crashed ship I like to repair and use (just fun for me). I am currently looking at blue fighter ship I like at a trading post. Does this mean it would also be able to show up as a crashed version in this galaxy? I was under the impression that each galaxy could only spawn X type/colors of ships.

Should I change my freighter, and what to look out for [Question]

My first and current freighter is a class A underbite cargo class freighter with 19 cargo slots. The one I'm being offered right now is a class B sentinel with 30. I'll have to pay about 67 million to get it but is it a better option, and what happens to all my inventory and storage units on my current freighter if I switch? My game closed on me and I couldn't save after the space battle, so idk if I still have access to it when I log back in.

Why, why, why did I do this! [Question]

Soooooo was on a mission on a planet that has extremely bizarre snow storms, like hey you're in your ship....you die, you're on the ground........you die, you think you're clever and dig a hole and bury yourself to survive.........well you diiiiiiieeeee. I was so heated I said f*** this(never say f*** this because that's when this f***s you) and hit the reload auto save, this is where everything hit me in the heart box because i realized that when i reloaded, I reloaded into an old body of mine but with out all of my backpack supplies because I diiiiiiieeeeed and got out of my ship and it saved during all of the BS that just happened. Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. And on top of that my manual load is hours in the past, I'll loose so much game play.😤 So I've just decided to just replace all that was missing but I can't remember what's missing.🤦 Can you all please assist and show me a screenshot of yalls backpack to see if anything clicks in my brain and I can make this a simple project. 🤩😁

Permadeath mode paradise planets always have aggressive sentinels.. [Discussion]

Ok, either I'm super unlucky, or it really is a case that the different game modes adjust the planets and not just the game systems.

I have now found dozens of "paradise" planets, but every single one has had aggressive sentinels.

Which I personally find a horrible approach. Difficulty between Normal, Survival, and Permadeath should be in the game systems (stack sizes, speed of resource usage, etc), and NOT in the galaxy.

IMHO, the galaxy generation (systems, planets, weather, sentinels, etc) should be the same in all game modes. They could still adjust the environment difficulty by using different starting galaxies. For example, some galaxies could have more aggressive sentinels across the boards or more violent weather, etc.

Thoughts?

I found said system in the discovered tab and set a waypoint, but it's very far away and the waypoint only sends me 200 LY closer to it. I thought about teleporting to its space station but it's not being shown on the list, since the last time I visited the system was too long ago.

I'm relatively new to reddit and I'm sorry if this has been asked before, I'm not entirely sure how to check.

I answer it and it starts the 'Dreams of the Deep' mission line. I've finished this in my main playthrough, not that I think it matters to Expedition progress, but I was just wondering if anyone else has come across this happening during their Expedition playthrough.

Overall question about the game state [Discussion/question]

I've played this once in the dark age of lies and then started playing from the last update. I've had a ton of fun and it's insane to see the devs still working on it and most importantly not degenerating into a microtransaction hell because i'm sure any other studio would have done it.

That said, i have a question. Why are some basic features still missing? Like ship customization, living ship inventory space upgrades, freighter actually moving and fighting etc... Imma be the devil's advocate and say without hesitation the game still hasn't reached the original concept fully. Which is fine, since they're slowly getting there. But why skip such basic features?

​

Also additional questions, how often do they add new planet biomes and creatures? Will we every be able to have a better render distance in planets?

The mission music played and I was given 500+ for the item. At the time of selling I had roughly 86m and have been selling ships looking for what may have been a 1 time ever find. Just wondering if anyone has any clue to what I may have had? It didn’t stand out as anything special just a normal trade ship item.

Just started playing a few weeks ago, and [Discussion]

So far I've blown up one PC and the other one I have is misbehaving too. I started on what was once a top-line gaming machine. But it's about 5 years old, and playing this game killed it. Game started crashing regularly and I started to smell something burning. Opened the thing up and sure enough the power supply had some crispy parts. It didn't help that 3 of the 4 cooling fans were completely seized up. So after retiring that one I tried on a second machine. It's a little newer (I bought it for my wife a few years ago so she could run FFXIV), but it doesn't run the game worth a crap even on the lowest video settings. Game freezes, sometimes just a few seconds after I appear at my base.

Like I said, I just started playing. I'm at the point now where I've gone through the new phase (Hey, this is pretty cool!) to the not so new phase (What the fuck am I supposed to be doing?) to a phase where I now have goals and fun things to do. I like it, and I want to play more, but the hardware just won't cooperate.

I'll be getting my new gaming PC on Saturday. After much consternation and consultation with my much more knowledgeable son I settled on this one. Should do the trick. Until the next big thing comes out anyway.

This is why I love gaming, Shoutout to Khazad!!! [Information]

I am relatively new to NMS (~40 hours) and a few days ago ran into a random player (Khazad) by my home base. First time I actually met another player outside the anomaly. They had a Nomad, Minotaur, and Royal starship so I made some comments about them and we talked a bit.

Khazad ended up showing me so many cool things in the game. They showed me how to set up an AI farm and helped me set one up for both copper as well as indium. They showed me their awesome freighter (picture). They even introduced me to Derelict Freighters and help me go through one.

We have played together twice now and I am having a blast! I am even more excited about NMS than before and cant wait to progress even further and unlock everything this game has to offer. This is why I love gaming, the ability to just meet a random person and have fun for hours without even knowing each other.

Nothing else really matters when we are gaming together. Just people enjoying a common activity.

So HUGE SHOUTOUT TO KHAZAD!!! You have made NMS one of the best gaming experiences for me.

"You should let ~Specialist~ get on with their business" can't fix [Bug]

I've been playing and after today's update I can no longer talk to my specialists at my base. Yesterday I made a fourth base computer in front of an ancient portal, saved then closed the game. Came back today to the base computer archives at my portal base and not my actual home base. I fixed this by deleting the base at the portal

I went home and tried to get upgrades from everyone (which I've already finished all their missions for) and they all said I should let them do their business. The scientist says a story or something and asks for data and gave me nanites but nothing else.

The armourer doesn't give me any free multi tool now but just asks if my multi tool is powerful or whatever

The exocraft worker says the business thing

I didn't finish the farmer yet so I went and did that and finished it now but everyone still doesn't let me get upgrades or to buy anything from the trees like they used to

Is there a way to lock down bases? So other players can't steal from you? Makes no sense I thought this was a single player game with multiplayer aspects? [Question]

Hey I know this has been asked before but the threads are all closed and I have questions... Ok so I'm completely new to this game so far I've played 86 hours and have gotten quite far have 40 mil In cash and a huge base I built. That literally is the most massive glass structure I've ever seen. Does uploading your base to the network make your base be able to be seen by others? What does that do exactly ?

I also thought this was a single player game that had multiplayer aspects to it. Turns out that is not true last night I'm on some backwater star and all of the sudden I'm flying between worlds and I notice that there is a base on a discovered world yet every other planet in the system is undiscovered. So I was like wait I've never been here before I know I haven't. I go and look and it's someone elses base. He had a large refinery a dark matter reactor with stuff inside of them? I didn't steal it but could have.

So I'm standing there like wait what is going on here how is this possible? So it's not a single player game? I'm running into other people out amongst the stars? This was someone else's base completely done and looked nice actually. How do I keep people out of my base when I'm not there.

Right now I only have 2 real bases the rest are just warp bases I have tons of those almost one for every element so it's easy to get back to worlds when I need certain things. Basically created supply lines for specific stuff. Is there locks in the game or anything like that? Otherwise this game makes zero sense. Yeah there are an u limited amount of stars but given how many people play the game and the ability to have unlimited amount of bases I'm going to be running into alot of other people as I traverse the universe, No? Do the math I'm inevitably going...

Expedition saves play together with regular, and quests [Question]

Did a quick search on this subreddit and others have asked similar question but none had conclusive answer.

​

I have done expedition 2 and 3. I can say with certainty that my expedition 2 did NOT convert to regular save, at least, as far as playing together with regular save is concerned. I can't join someone else's regular save nor can they join mine in any of the mismatched combo. So even though it's said that expedition save converts, that doesn't seem to be the case for expedition 2, and I suspect expedition 3 wouldn't be different. Anybody care to comment/tell their experience?

​

After finishing expedition 3, and because my main save is so old/long ago that it has glitches here and there, I decided to start over with the ship in expedition 3 (anybody else notices the station override item in the ship? not available on normal save, at least I couldn't find it.). Anyways, I proceeded with many 'normal' milestones, getting a town, getting a free freighter. BUT I can't get the base building quests to start. That means to specialist stations. It's not a big deal, I can unlock the items other ways but it makes me think this isn't normal/that it's glitchy. Again, seeking others' comments and experience with continuing an expedition save as a regular save.

Expedition part Three [Question]

Hello! Sorry for asking a very stupid question, but I started NMS in June, so I am a bit new... What is this Expedition everyone is talking about? I saw it's an event of sort, but I don't seem to find it anywhere in my game. Did I have to do the others two before? I am a bit lost! Thank you for anyone who will answer! Have a good day/night!

but what does a settlement do for you...? [Question]

First off. Not being pessimistic purely and truly just wondering

Do you get the profits?

Do they craft stuff for you?

Is it just a flex?

Ive been busy building a mould farm and reading the problems that arise from you lot, i decided to back burner it.

PSA: No Man's Sky runs extremely well on LINUX. [Information]

Didn't see any talk about this recently so I thought I'd share:

This game runs extremely well on Linux. Just downloaded it on SteamPlay on my Linux desktop (16GB RAM & GTX1060) and it ran perfectly out of the box, no tweaking required. I even feel like it's running smoother than on Windows.

If you check ProtonDB some users have tweaks for it but in my case (Proton 6 on Steam play) nothing was needed.

The Update that will make everyone shut the fuck up (totally not my wish list) [Suggestion]

Here is the leaked patch notes for the next update:

Ship customization:

You finally got what you guys were begging for the past few years. When you salvage ships you get "ship parts" that you can use in the starship terminal to craft your own starship, you can also color it by purchasing paint with nanites.

Combat Update:

Did any of us say this game was about combat? Well that doesn't matter because apparently if a game has combat the game needs the most in-depth and exciting combat of all time.

We changed the combat scope so you can actually aim down sights and not just zoom in like your playing Fallout 3. Oh and Biological horrors are much bigger and can be found on infested planets. And predators are much more common and bigger.

We updated the procedural tech system btw so it's even more roguelike.

Speaking of roguelike...

Difficulty:

Remember the slow and actually difficult experience back at Gisto Major? Well we brought that back accept that's just how Survival is now, minus the Expedition patches. But gear and character is still randomized. Also all ship deaths are crash landings in the nearest planet now. You wanted difficulty, we give you difficulty.

Oceans:

Remember that one time we copied Subnautica? Well we are doing it again. We have no shame.

Oceans are now at least 10,000 units deeper. We also built in a system so that more aggressive creatures are in the deep. Oh and there are some functioning underwater settlements to explore.

And there is the Cyclops a new exocraft! A massive submarine you can walk in. Also new tech added so you can explore deep ocean easier.

Btw you can adopt and train fish now. Have fun.

Still can’t give resources for settlement building, even after patch. [Question]

I had hopes that today’s patch would fix the problem, but nope.

Playing on a PC. Building out my settlement, and I have a construction stuck in final phase because it’s asking “Supply 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.

Patch notes seemed like it would address this, but it didn’t. Kinda sucks because I can’t grow my settlement: I can just deal with the stupid residents’ problems. Been stuck at 49 residents for a week.

Getting S-class freighter and handling settlement issues [Information]

So, found out that you can take care of settlement issues while in a different solar system hunting a freighter - sort of.

I’m,looking for that elusive S class, and have a save at the space station to launch from.

I kept getting messages about this and that at the settlement, so in hopes of not getting 20.000 messages about issues irrelevant to the moment, I used the station teleporter to go to my settlement, clear out all the stuff, then jump back to the space station where I’m hunting the S.

It worked, just fine. Teleported back and jumped into the ship, jumped out to make a new auto save - and the freighter mission is still there.

Kinda handy.

The most complete guide I can offer on how to find underground fauna in no man's sky; [Information]

Trying to find that last fauna on your list can be quite a pain at times, especially when that creature on your list is underground, compounded by the possibility that the creature is Uncommon, or the dreaded Rare underground.

Often times I would consider this a completely lost cause to even waste my time on but I've managed to put together a list of little tricks that seem to make it from an agonizing chore, to a likely occurrence I'm getting what I'm looking for all without having no navigate cramped musty holes.

First step;

Make sure the area is very mountainous. Simple as.

Step Two;

Scan as much as you can of the flora. While there is no definitive official answer behind this, it seems to be commonly agreed on by travelers that; The more flora scanned, the better your chances of seeing all of the creatures. At least 2/3's of the flora I've noticed give me a better chance of running into those Rare spawns.

Step Three;

Find either a decently sized cave, or a cave that is exposed to the sun due to the lack of a celling. These outdoor caves seem to be favorable for spawning underground fauna. The outdoor caves are more common around points of interest of all types because they flatten the land around them, easily spotted due to their underground minerals and flora being exposed. If the cave is covered but large enough in size, use the terrain manipulator and open it up to the sun yourself. An area big enough you could park 2 landing pads inside seems sufficient. It is very important to note for this section if there is not a lot of fauna spawning around the cave itself, there is even less of a chance anything is going to spawn inside the cave area.

Step Four;

Place yourself within the open cave area among the harvestable minerals and flora that you find in that section to wait a few minuets. It...

Expanding The Base Overseer bug [Bug]

Hello all, so as the title says I am experiencing a bug with the Expanding The Base quest.

currently, I've done the scientist, weapon, and agriculture terminals missions, and then I moved on to the overseer again, so I did the quest for the overseer where he asks to kill some animals for the Mordite and return to him. I did it and delivered said Mordite, but now I'm stuck in a loop. My quest log says to return to the overseer, but when I do it just goes through the same conversations each time, tells me a story about the overseer sharing his history with me and I see it all from his perspective. Then it gives me an option to either touch him gently or leave him be. The dialogue ends after that and I go back to the beginning of the loop. For example, if I touch him it says "I touch him, but do not let it linger" and then the icon is right back over his head.

I did get the Exocraft terminal from him but not the quest to get the NPC for that one.

And so I'm kinda stuck with that questline now, does anyone know a fix? I'm playing on PC via Steam if that helps, also I wouldn't mind doing save edits, I just have no idea where to look or what to change.

Thank you in advance :)

My beautiful planet has been ravaged by the update [Bug]

Since yesterday's patches, a base I set up after a long time searching for ideal conditions has been altered. It used to have a blue atmosphere and was full of green grass. Now it's turned orange and the atmosphere is yellow. It looks awful and doesn't suit the base I've built. I've spent so much time building it already I don't want to abandon it now. The lighting indoors which I crafted specifically to tie in with the blue daylight now doesn't work because it's perpetually orange outside so it's too dark indoors.

main save or multiple? [Question]

so me and a couple friends picked up the game last year and played for a while, while one of us (me) got filthy rich from giant floating space orb strangers another attempted killing an immortal alien worm god.

As the game progressed we lost the challenging feeling and grew bored, the game was amazing and lots of content we didn’t even touch but since we were split apart and in different areas of campaign we let the game go.

Looking over screenshots of us losing our minds over an advanced larva spawn and there being different galaxy’s I’ve begun to miss the game and was wondering what’s the best way to get back into it?

Although we didn’t progress that far all of us have over 2 days played in game time and me and another have 5, we have good gear with no challenge really left, is it better to make a new save or to just keep going with in game content?

My settlement did not have this problem.

However, every structure in my settlement has now been moved.

Not a big problem by itself. Unless you built stuff in and around your settlement like I did. This is how my base used to look..

Now pretty much everything is off, my stuff was mostly roads so it's not as big of a deal, but I can't imagine how messed up some other bases were.

In my mind, this single feature would put some more legs on the endgame. It would offer greater variety in the range of engaging gameplay, revamp the look and experience of finding crashed freighters, and if used as a nexus mission could be implemented with new enemy types in the form of bosses which scale to the collective progression of the group.

Medium dwellings are just bugged... [Bug]

I don't know what else to do. I've switched settlements multiple times, in new star systems and galaxies. Every single time a medium dwelling is presented for construction it builds the site with no terminal. I've denied the request many times to keep things moving but it always pops back up. I thought 3.68 would fix this but no.. downloaded the update this morning and still have the same issue.

Oxygen decreased from station pilots? [Discussion]

Prior to today’s patch, I could buy approx 3500-4500 oxygen from basically each and every pilot that landed on the station.

This morning it seems to be capping out at 300-400 per pilot (basically about a 90% decrease).

Today’s patch notes don’t mention this - curious to hear other people’s thoughts in this.

Help me understand and pick a Multitool. [Question]

I'm trying to set up 2 MT's. One for mining + scanning and one for combat. I read on the wiki that experimental's were the best for the first category and alien weapon were the top choice for damage output.

Here is the experimental rifle i found: https://ibb.co/jy5Xrv5 and the alien rifle: https://ibb.co/f9pLNBy

Quite a big difference in the damage numbers. On top of that i just stumbled across a C class rifle with crazy big dmg numbers (for C class): https://ibb.co/c33Q9N1 I'm guessing that if i upgrade this to S class it will have better dmg than the alien rifle.

Navigating Euclid or any galaxy is like running in a maze with glass walls. (Rant just for reading) [Discussion]

Again venting my frustration with the game, I know this issue will never be fixed, so is not a discussion, and every thing you post, won't matter to change my opinion or even change the game; Here it goes:

Navigating any galaxy is impossible, there are no visible features in the galaxies to get some orientation of where to go wothout getting lost! There are some stripes and clusters of stars, but going to a known place is impossible without knowing the stupid glyphs, which for me is a cheat.

Why not using real coordinates? Galactic Coordinates.

No, the glyphs are not coordinates as they can't be used inside the ship, the planets have a coordinates system as you can see it inside the ship and exocrafts, but God forbids using that in the stupid galaxy! Yes, I know that they can be translated, but they aren't of any use, they are just a cheat system. Not even the upper left galaxy has any use for navigating the galaxy!

I used the Black Hole Sun navigational aid website, I knew the glyphs of the system and after 20 jumps, I was in the near 2KLY, every jump I made drive me far away, sometimes I got near but never got the jump right because you can't get any real orientation, not even using the galactic center helps! After 30 or so jumps I gave up, got the rest of the glyphs and used the cheating system, the glyph portals.

Literally there is no way to navigate the galaxy to a previous location from another save without using the cheat system aka the glyphs.

Anyways, enjoy your gaming friends, as I previously said, I won't see you online because of the censorship in the naming system will get me banned for using numbers and Spanish words that somehow are offensive to some weakling that can't speak Spanish.

AI interaction & Combat/Weapon Overhaul? [Suggestion]

Personally, Ifeel this game has progressed phenomenally and the last big step would be a more interactive Ai and combat experience.

Ai and merchants having more dynamic motions and variations in voice/personalities. Maybe adding more life to the “Base Meechants/Ai” as well.

Adding more interactive, intense, space fights would add more consequence not only to the game itself but in space exploration.

My thoughts to add more interactive battles are (applies more to space): a. Each enemy has a different weapon. b. Each enemy attacks the player with a different method like the Pac Man ghosts. (coming from specific directions, trying to push you into another more powerful ship, etc.) c. not have ship beeline right into your light of fire. d. More direction snapping and fluid dodging. e. homing missiles that can be skillfully dodged/blocked. f. barrel rolls and dynamic moments g. etc.

Returning player, but stuck in tutorial missions [Question]

So I'm trying to do the mission Awakenings, and it asks me to find a fuel source. The location is in the middle of a volcano which the terrain manipulator can't get through.

I saw that an exocraft can get into a volcano, but I can't build one because I don't have the anomoly unlocked yet. I can't unlock the anomoly because I pretty sure you have to get through these starter missions.

I also read that if you can get far enough away, you can reset the mission....well I've made like 35 jumps and it's still not letting me reset.

I started a hosted game on my steam version of the game, hosted a new session, joined it from my Xbox(the bugged account), it let me reset the mission, but the the Galaxy map still wasn't showing the location of the fuel source, however the quest path was showing about 20 jumps away. I wouldn't mind jumping those jumps, but I'm not sure the fuel source will actually be there. Also when I saved the game in the multiplayer session, when I loaded my single player again it was back to my original location.

I am beyond frustrated at this point, how can I fix this?

Roof configurations corresponding with angular/circular floors [Question]

G'day All

With the free-form building sets, for example wood - I was wondering what people do with the ceiling/roof where the floor has an irregular (non-square) shape.

For example: if you start with a triangular floor piece and arrange them, you can make a Hexagonal room, you know, kinda a circular shape. Floor and walls is all-G .. but what do you do with the ceiling ?

Are you stuck just using floor pieces as roof ?

Thing is, you can make oblong -type rooms by combining square & triangular floors, and the new roof tiles look really nice, but it gets iffy when you come to the corners.

Maybe this is a common problem, or a complete non-issue, or something in-the-works .. sorry, I just get a bit of random time here and there for gaming, and quite enjoy no mans sky (less so since my VR kit up and shit itself -- I mean one of the controller wands died -- but still fun).

So yeah -- any advice with roofing solutions for non-square / combo room shapes ?

Sorry, I don't follow the news/social stuff, if this is a known problem in the works, sorry to waste your time educating me.

Also are they going to bring back axis rotation - how you could slope walls and other pieces at peculiar angles ? I'd enjoy building into a cliff face in VR, and having sloped windows out of natural rock :/

All the best.

Fast ways to earn Nanites, and should I worry about upgrading my Mini-tool to S-Class first for Starship? [Discussion]

Been playing for the passed week and was wondering what in more experienced players ideas are the better ways to earn Nanites currently because I’m sure there’s still much I don’t know.

Secondly, do I go for Mini-tool or Starship first? I was really thinking Mini-Tool cuz one I have now I got pretty quickly and nothing I found has rivaled it so far making me think it’s rare but I could just gotten lucky with ships.

Been using a A-Class Fighter, had to spend 3 slot Augments but I think it’s now considered max slots. Have 4 other ships at S-Class, 2 Exotic with rather low slots, Shuttle with average slots, and Hauler w/ 58 Slots. My mini-tool has always been max slot so don’t need to worry about extra investment time there.

Was gonna do Ship but 50k Nanites is a lot and now thinking I could just build up one of the already S-Class I have but not seasoned enough to have any real insight prolly so just wanted some opinions.

I finally found and purchased an S class freighter and I've had the same one since freighters were released. Naturally, the organization of my storage was years overdue. I saw my LS Gel was not stacking. Pretty sure Oxygen Capsules were the precursor to Life Support Gel and the wiki says it was removed in Origins.

Wouldn't you know if just found the ship of my dreams! Now I just gotta make some coin and wait for the right one to show up. I've been missing this kind of motivation on my main save lately, and would never have found this ship if I hadn't joined expedition 3. Thanks hello games 🙂

Help traveling to another galaxy [Question]

This is kind of ridiculous but I’ve had this game for three years and I STILL can’t figure out how to leave the galaxy and go to the next one. I’ve spent all this time Googling, Googling, Googling… And not a single instruction piece actually tells you how to accomplish this. It’s all vague answers.

“Go to the Centre of your galaxy-“ HOW?

“Find the black hole-“ Well that requires going to the centre which nobody is giving answers to.

“Use the map and select-“ You can’t. There’s no moving around you can do. There’s no selecting you can do. You can’t even see where you are.

Will someone PLEASE give me EXACT step by step instructions to leave this galaxy?

Found My First Exotic Ship! [Discussion]

Found and hopped through my first black hole tonight, and then started chasing frigate icons across the star chart until I found a nice looking A class. As I was discovering these new systems, I would pop into the space station to pick up the teleport and see If I could offload an item to the market at a premium. At one of these I happened to spot this slick pool ball-looking ship in red and gold. I grabbed it, and now I have my first exotic ship. I Googled it looking for more information. I guess its a guppy style of ship, and I wasn't able to find this specific one on the internet. Its called the "Subaras of The Ether", and I geeked out a bit that I may have been the first person to find it.

Just had nice, feel-good night and wanted to share. I'll figure out how to get the ship properly documented tomorrow.

Save game freezing upon loading. Any suggestions? [Bug]

One day my game randomly decides that its gonna crash and when I go to reload my save, the game freezes. I'm able to create another character and play that one, but I'd rather not start from scratch considering I have a couple hundred hours invested in that character. I've tried looking up solutions online, but they're all outdated and unhelpful. Anyone have any ideas?

Help with settlements. [Information]

Ok so found a good planet ..... built a base ...... settlements update came out ...... 1st settlement I got was on a crap planet ...... became the overseer anyway ..... thought I want one on a nice planet ..... found nice planet done the search for settlement thing and the button for becoming overseer was grey .... said I didn't have the required trade deal .... was geknip ..... got tons! So thought find another one ..... same greyed out button to become overseer.

Is this because I'm still the overseer from my 1st crap planet?

Can u not just became a new one and leave the ur older one?

Is base building in a settlement an exploit? [Discussion]

With the current update wrecking havoc on people's built up bases I've seen several people claim its an exploit. Personally I don't think it is. As far as I can recall you've always been able to build around outposts and other buildings as long as its with a base computers range . Why would this be different? If it was an exploit you'd think this would have been addressed a long time ago.

Thoughts?

Base Teleporter Placement [Question]

Hey guys!

Having a bit of trouble. I want to put a teleporter inside my base, but I can't get it to place down! I get the error "object too close" even though there's plenty of room in the building. I removed all close by modules and there are now just walls, what am I missing??

Thanks!

Can anyone name??? [Question]

Other than No Man's Sky, can anyone name a game that was released in 2016 (or before), and still makes you; come back for more, keep finding new things and realise that you are insanely grinning at the awesome visuals? 🤔

5 years in and I still Love this game!!!

From a personal point of view...

Thanks Hello Games, you gave me a massive opportunity to get outside from the safety of home during the pandemic 🤗🤗🤗
