Are there any items that can NEVER be acquired by a new player starting now? [Question]

I haven't played for a very long while, maybe two years or so. I was curious if there were any cosmetic or in-game items that I will "never" be able to earn or access if I were to start playing often again.

I plan on jumping in and rushing through "Pioneers" after seeing the pop up on Steam after logging in for the first time in a while to update a few games.

I know there have been community events, I know that the expeditions give rewards as well, and many other things like that. But, I am still very confused as to what items are "locked" as I can't seem to find a good list online.

So, my questions are: Are there any items in the game a new player, starting today, will never be able to access? Have I lost the chance at getting anything?

Ancient Artifacts and Planetary Charts [Question]

I must be the unluckiest person because I got 20 Planetary charts for Ancients Artifacts or whatever and none of them were actual artifacts but plaques and monoliths. Are there other options to finding ancient ruins or just keep trying the charts and my visor?

Preparations to “Streamline” Expeditions [Discussion]

Hi everyone,

I’m fairly new to NMS (two months in, and about to leave Euclid for the first time and also start playing with Permadeath saves). I don’t get all that much time to play NMS, and I really want to focus my time on my main interests. I just want the goodies!

I just completed Expedition 1 for the first time, and I had a blast. But it took me a long time to complete — I did everything the “hard” way. I’m excited about knocking 2, 3, and 4 out, but I’m hoping to do them quickly and efficiently. (Expedition 1 took me 26 hours, because I assumed that the black hole I took would dump me in the vicinity of the next rendezvous point, not 1.4M light years away from it. Figuring this out and jumping back to a convenient station took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out.)

What are folks’ thoughts on visiting the starting and rendezvous planets for those expeditions in advance to set up bases that will make things easier? I’m specifically thinking of setting up some bio-dome farms, refiners, nutrient processors, and mineral extractors for key resources, nanites, and units. I might also scout out some crashed ship locations and Multi-Tools, if I’m feeling especially ambitious.

Would this be considered cheating or contrary to the spirit of the game and/or expeditions? I’m not concerned about making these expeditions less fun for myself; I’m really enjoying my main save and would rather spend my limited time there. At the same time, I don’t want to ruin the experience of anyone else running those expeditions for the first time. Making large quantities of key resources easily available to everyone might impact their enjoyment of the expeditions.

I’m probably just overthinking this, and am just happy that this game and community exist!

Cheers,

Hoarybat

Why is NMS so ambiguous? [Question]

I'm pretty new, and have stuck with creative mode for the fun of it, having logged about 25h so far. Its not much, but for most games, it should seriously be enough to have a firm grasp on whats things are and what options you have. However, I have no clue about anything. No clue what to do about storage. No clue what an expedition is and how to start one. I love how it makes you figure it all out on your own, but hot damn! Who is Artemis and why cant I figure it out?! I may be dumb, but thats only 20% of the problem. So I guess my question is: Other than just grinding, whats the best way of figuring out the minutiae of the game? Like, do I need every engine upgrade, or is there just one needed at any time?

Trouble with antimatter housing: recipe missing [Question]

So, i've been playing for a little bit now and followed the questline, but received a warp cell before getting to the area for the quest on making antimatter housing which immediately advanced the mission past that point. I didn't realize it would cause a problem and pressed on, but now I can only craft antimatter housing if i have one in my inventory, but i can't do it otherwise? Is there a way to get the recipe outside of the questline or is this save in a weird position now?

I've tried googling for answers but so far everything points to the questline.

Anomaly Fan Theory [Discussion]

So just as a warning, I do have a habit of getting a bit story-telling-y, so I might ramble a bit, and a lot of it is theorising and guesswork, so please don't flame me too hard

Okay, so. I think that the anomaly that you summon and the anomaly you land in... Aren't the same thing. Sort of.

My theory is that when you summon the anomaly, you're just summoning a gateway, or door, to the anomaly. The reason I think this is because of how it all works.

When you summon the anomaly, you can do it anytime, anywhere, then fly into that mysterious green area and land. It's almost strange, it's like an even better space station, it's almost... Well, an anomaly.

Now I think the reason you can summon it anytime, anywhere like a freighter is the same reason I think you can meet up with other players, the anomaly you summon is a door to the main anomaly that anyone anywhere (with permission) can summon.

I don't know if it uses some kind of quantum-anomalous technology to theoretically be everywhere at once, but it would also explain how you can enter one galaxy, choose an expedition and be thrown out into one so far you can't summon your freighter. Because the anomaly doesn't need to move, it just needs to place the door somewhere else

TL;DR: The anomaly you summon is a doorway to the main anomaly and that's how you can summon it anywhere and it can place you anywhere

Elite dangerous comparisons? [Question]

I havent played no mans sky yet but i downloaded elite dangerous hoping for a fun exploration game. Im really only looking for the discovering/exploring planets aspect of these games. Im not into the combat as much.

Elite dangerous is a great game for exploration but its so realistic that it can take real life hours to get to certain places. This is good for immersion and all but i dont always have the time to do that. Is no mans sky more player friendly in terms of ship fuel/distance to places/stuff like that?

In super simple terms: elite dangerous too hard :,( beautiful game though when you put in the effort

Is no mans sky more casual/‘easier’? I just wanna zoom around exploring planets

Imagine a Starship Update [Suggestion]

I've been thinking about this a lot lately and I'm not sure if anyone else has posted something similar. It would be nice if Hello Games had an update focused solely around Starships.

Some things that could be really cool to introduce to the game could be a shipyard merchant or station that floats in space like the space station. With this merchant or building (or the current upgrade station for starships), once you scrap a starship, whatever pieces (wing types, nose, etc), you can now manufacture and replace on any other starship. Each one could be a blueprint that is only learned when you scrap that specific piece. I think Hello Games could even increase the diversity of starship parts by adding some new generation to the ships to make it "harder" to collect all of the parts.

Another longtime ask from the community is being able to modify your ships color. This is currently something that appears to have been implemented with freighters (but is still buggy because the colors aren't staying 100% of the time after purchase), and it could be nice to "buy" colors using nanites or get other colors through future expedition rewards.

The last prong of this suggestion would be to increase ship slots. With the introduction of living ships, and now expedition reward ships, and twitch reward ships, I feel like it would be reasonable to ask for an increase, even if it was something we had to buy using nanites towards end game.

There's a lot of potential here and could drive long time players back to the game

I'd be interested in anyone else's thoughts.

Group Bases not showing up on teleport list [Question]

I’ve tried finding the answer on here with no luck so figured I’d ask myself. My brother and I play together and sometimes he will build a base on a new planet and sometime I will build the base on a new planet. We set up teleporters on every base we make and have been uploading them to the server. However, usually when we go to the teleport list and look at the group bases tab, we will only ever be able to see a couple of bases that belong to the other person. Is there a reason why this is happening that we can fix or is it just a bug? All we want is to be able to teleport to each other’s bases and it’s seemingly random which ones we will actually see at any given time.

Can’t progress 16/16 quest [Bug]

I’ve seen similar issues spring up with other people in other quests, but nothing that has been suggested will work.

I’m at the point in the quest where I’m supposed to activate the portal, but I can’t because the portal is located underneath a volcano.

I’ve tried going through a black hole to get far away so I can reset the quest, but it seems that I can’t because I’m in the middle of it.

I don’t know anyone at the moment who has the game that I can play multiplayer with so I can’t check to see if that works.

Both of my saves are after the portal spawned, so that won’t help.

I’m on PS5 and I really don’t want to scrap this save. Is there anything I can do?

Got my S Class freighter today [Suggestion]

Spent a lot of casual time trying. Finally got a capital S class after slightly more than an hour, It’a not pretty, but function over form for me.

This may have been posted, but given renewed interest in the game, I thought I would share recent observations.

Primary observation: Majority of content providers show how to get one via combat..That only applies if you want one for free, but the reality is if you can’t afford the <100,000,000 to buy one out right, there better things to worry about.

Fact: S-class has a 2% spawn rate in a 3 start economy. Conflict does not matter.. 2% rate is 2%.

Fact: starship exit on an unowned freighter does not make a save point (observed in system I was in).

Recommend: Get your free freighter when you can, build cash, find a three star economy, make a save point in the station and fly out until you get an S.

Starship Racing [Suggestion]

This is based on some datamined info.

What if we could race starships above planet surfaces? Here's how I'd imagine it would work:

In a set area, a player could place a bunch of checkpoints leading through a course they have decided. The course does not have to be a loop.

In a race, players must pass through all checkpoints in order. Good placement of checkpoints can stop players from taking routes they're not supposed to. Starship Weapons can disabled during races by the track owner.

This would introduce whole new genre of things for players to do, and also for the growing number of No Man's Sky content creators.

Can you guys help me with getting a living ship? [Question]

So I screwed up a couple of times trying to get a ship. The first time I ran around doing stuff, waiting days and getting these different components. Not sure what happened but I got distracted or something and there’s a recipe in my log to collect living water or something. I feel like I did that at some point but I don’t have the water anymore and can’t find that squid again.

The next time I tried it was different but took a few days. I found a ship but when I got there I didn’t have a free slot so I dropped a base, went to my freighter and scrapped a ship. But when I went back the ship is just a normal ship.

How do I start this again? Just go buy another egg?

Stumbled upon an infinite nanite(ish) glitch. [Bug]

So I discovered the refining residual goop into nanites trick the last couple weeks. I set up three medium refiners on my freighter, and bought up all the goop I could get my hands on. Ran them all like clockwork every day for a week or two. Then, the other night, I went to reset my refiners, and one of them only ran for a few seconds. I check, and the inventory is the same as it was before I touched it, with 4095 viscous fluids cooked. Now every time I open it, no matter what I do, it instantly resets to that inventory, so I just grab a stack, fill a refiner, grab another. I still have to sink the time into refining it two more times, but I never need to look for the resources. I thought it was pretty neat, anyone had anything similar happen?

Need a medium/large group of people to do a Grand Strategy-esque game of NMS with. [Discussion]

Hello! I've had this idea for a while now, but I've never had a large enough group of people to make it work.

Starting with brand new characters, we would all get our stuff working on our private ships, and then would complete the tutorial all the way up to getting antimatter for our ships. Then, once everybody has completed the Antimatter quest, we would all travel to our own respective stars (in our first jump, nobody is allowed to go to the same star as another person, unless those people have decided that they want to play together, or as allies). Whichever star that we jump to, would become our Home System.

The goal is to get your name on as many findings as you can, to make as many credits as possible, and to become the most influential player in the shortest amount of time. There would be a two-hour grace period at the 'start' (when we all land at our home systems), and then all bets would be off. Players will be able to attack other players, sabotage other buildings, etc, but obviously the best way to make the most influence early-game would be to travel throughout the galaxy and get your name on things.

Base placement near settlement? [Question]

New to the game. I finally found a settlement on an awesome paradise planet with oceans and floating islands and shit. Now I want to know where I should build my base. The settlement is just too far from shore to have access to water, and the nearest floating island is a bit farther away. Is there a benefit of having the base basically on top of the settlement? Is access to water on the base especially helpful? I was thinking of parking a nautilus there. Or should I just build on that floating island because it looks cool, and commute over to the settlement when I feel like it?

Stuck on derelict freighter [Question]

Was doing a freighter for the expedition and when I finished, I discovered my ship hovering above the freighter too high for me to get to.

Buying new ship question [Question]

Hi people!

I want to buy a new ship (still having the starting one) and I am currently in a Tier 2 Korvax economy system. I want to buy a explorer ship for example this one but I have some questions: Why does it only have 7 tech slots available if it's a B class? Shouldn't 14 slots be unlocked like this white border around the first row? So far I reloaded my save cca 20 times at the trading station and I never saw a explorer with more than 4 tech slots available, do they always spawn like that and I have to buy the other slots or can a C class explorer spawn with 6-7 slots unlocked?

Cheers!

Expedition rewards across all future and current saves or only current saves? [Question]

I have just started NMS and learnt about expeditions and how it is time limited so I am going to be doing this first. I read that the rewards are for all save slots but since I am a new player I just have one save slot with 2-3 hours game time. Does this mean that my future save slots will have the expedition rewards? I am going to make a permadeath mode save too so it will be nice to have the rewards for that.

I'm trying to get back into playing no mans sky, this time in vr, but what really bugs me is that the full body doesn't turn with the head and misaligns with it, which really pisses me off for reasons I don't know. Is there a setting or a fix to this or am I just gonna have to suffer?

Basecomputer disappeared - cant complete quest [Bug]

I just started playing this game.

Im now stuck at the quest with the Distress Signal (seams i get the Hyperdrive from this quest) at the point where you have to decode that data at your base computer.

I have build my base with blueprint analyser and portal. and moved around some stuff in build mode.

But after that my base computer which i moved inside my base is gone now.

I cant build a new one because there is already a base.

So i did build another base on a different Planet and moved everything over there but the Marker still points at my original Base at the original base computer location.

Then i contacted the game support but i did not get any answer.

Today i downloaded a Savegame Editor (https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor) because it has a "Move Base Computer" Function.

So i unlocked the Signal Booster and placed it in my base on flat ground outside any struktur.

But when i try to use it, it shows an error: "Cannot move base computer. Please ensure that your base has a suitable Signal Booster / Blueprint Analyser / Beacon placed where you want your base computer to be."

Please can someone help me fix this?

I really don't want to start a new game, i did a lot of exploring and farming materials during the initial questline up to the point where i got stuck.

I just wanna ignore the main quest line and play the God damn game [Question]

Don't get me wrong, I think the main storyline is cool and all, but I'm almost 30 hours into the game and I feel the main quest line is still forcing me to play the game in a specific way. I just wanna focus on progressing the explorer's guild, but I feel like I have to continue to play the main quest line in order not to miss out on essential blueprints. Is it possible to play the game that way, or do I have to continue the main quest line? Or, at what point do you think I can ignore the main quest line? I just discovered the Atlas interface out in space, for reference.

Expedition rewards after the expedition ended? [Answered]

I just finished the first expedition. Really helped me get back into the game after many years (I only played at launch) and getting the hang of all the (new) game mechanics.

Now the rewards from this expedition can also be claimed in other saves at the quicksilver merchant. Since I want to play on a new more permanent save after all these expeditions I’m wondering if all these rewards still be available by then? Or is it advised to start the new save now already to claim the rewards?

What is so special about the Golden Vector? [Question]

I've just finished the Pioneer expedition and unlocked the Golden Vector. I'm relatively new to the game and think it's a cool ship, but is there anything unique/special about it that I may be unaware of?

I know the second expedition will reward the Normandy which makes sense as a unique reward for Mass Effect fans. Is the Golden Vector from another game/movie/something that I'm not aware of? Or does it have any unique equipment installed or unusually good stats or anything? Or is it just another fighter with a cool looking skin?

Do you think that there will be a No Man’s Sky 2, just like Subnautica: Below Zero? [Discussion]

No man’s sky seems like the game that would most probably never get a sequel, rather will receive new content since it’s a multiplayer-ish game that can be updated constantly unlike Subnautica. But updates will never change major mechanics and the general “feel” of the game whether it’s dated or not. So do you think that there’ll be a sequel, and if so when?

Old player returning and bugged out. Any workarounds? [Bug]

Greetings. Day 1 player on my ps5 returning after many off and on stints of this game. I returned cause i saw a post about the pioneer expeditions DLC or what ever its actually properly called ending in a few days & figured i put in some gaming time over the weekend to try and get my hands on the golden “S” ship as a reward. I just got my freighter last night. Put a couple command rooms & a portal as you come through the 2 doors leading to your command deck. Portal placed wrong so i moved it. Everything okay. Upon coming back after a few missions i walk through the 2 doors & bam a huge hole & i fall through space out of my freighter. I tried to jet pack over it but its like there is a wall preventing me from accessing any of my ship. I tried reloading both last save point & manual save point to call my freighter to a different place in space but each time after many trys the hole is still there. Any work arounds on how to fix the issue. This hinders me a good bit being crunched for time to try and get the reward before they expire. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you

Can't Run in a Straight Line [Bug]

So I just got this game during the Autumn sale thinking that it was finally worth getting into. It seems fine so far (though survival mode keeps killing me within like 5 minutes), but there's this weird visual thing that keeps happening when I sprint or even walk forward with my character. Not only does it look somewhat choppy, but my character model will sometimes just randomly jerk to the left or right. It's like it isn't able to walk across the ground textures smoothly or something, and It's ruining my experience so far.

I want to enjoy the game because of how far it's gone, but not even being able to walk in a straight line is making it hard to actually have any fun. No, it's not my keyboard. No other game is doing this. No it's not my mouse. No other game is doing this. Any advice would be appreciated - I'd like to know if I'm going to have to refund this game :/

"Pirate Settlement Detected" [Suggestion]

The thin lava crust crackled under the boots of my exosuit when I stepped out of the cockpit. I deployed my signal booster, and barely cooled obsidian shards flew up around its feet. I felt Stygian heat radiating from below as I punched the commands to detect nearby structures, not expecting to find much on this fiery hell planet.

"UNKNOWN STRUCTURE DETECTED. MARKING APPROXIMATE COORDINATES."

Approximate? That's strange, why can't I tag the location? Unless someone is jamming the signal? ... Pirates ...

I hopped back into my fighter and took off, flying low between sheer cliffs and belching cinder cones, hoping for a visual through the sulfurous murk.

There.

A secure manufacturing facility with several outbuildings, but no Sentinels in sight. Whoever commandeered this place must have found a way to hack them to look the other way. Neat trick, that. I'd heard these dens sometimes hid troves of quicksilver, X-class modules, contraband multitools, who knew what else.

I opened fire with my cyclotron ballista and the reinforced door exploded in chunks out of its frame. Klaxons blared as several confused Gek in First Spawn battle masks streamed from the outbuildings and sprinted toward the landing pads, trailing hazy clouds of alarm pheromones behind them. Another ballista strafing run took out two of the six parked ships as well as a storage depot full of Magno-Gold and Geodesite. These Gek are doing well for themselves.

The remaining four fighters launched from the pads and accelerated, blue photon cannon bolts streaming toward me. I armed my positron ejector and dived into a nearby canyon ...

First expedition completion questions [Question]

Hello space travelers !

I have been playing NMS for two weeks now, I pre purchased it at the time but game was bad yada yada yada.

I am quite impressed and so pleased with what the game has become. I am enjoying every second of it and really trying to discover things by myself.

I am a bit of a completionist and I discover that you could get the famous golden vector, so I started the first expedition. I am having a bit of a hard time though, and I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to do the following tasks :

-Launch a freighter expedition -Farm plants

I have a class C freighter but I can't figure out how to build the thing it's asking me to add to the freighter to launch expeditions... I am pretty clueless.

As for farming plants, I built a few of these growing pods / farming cells (I play the game in french so sorry for the inaccuracy in items' names), I have the blueprints to build a glass dome... But how do I plant seeds ?

Also if you guys have general tips for the first expedition completion that'd be cool ! :)

If someone could shed a light on these, I'd really appreciate it ! Thanks a lot !!

Unpopular Opinion: If No Man's Sky is about discovery, why is 95% of the universe already inhabited / charted? [Discussion]

I understand you can still explore something new even if the place is inhabited; like when Europeans discovered America and the Natives. But, The whole point of No Man's Sky is discovery, then why is everything we 'discover' already on a planet with a major civilisation?

Why not have parts of space that doesn't have Gek, Korvax or Vy'Keen? Give Freighters a bigger role in assisting with exploring, instead of relying on the space stations. Or, increase the likely hood for rare resources and variation to spawn in these areas.

TIMELAPSE OF THE FUTURE: A Journey to the End of Time (4K) -- possible NMS content [Video]

https://youtu.be/uD4izuDMUQA

TIMELAPSE OF THE FUTURE: A Journey to the End of Time (4K)

By: melodysheep

Not exactly No Man's Sky content, but I figured most likely fans of the game are also fans of space & cosmic phenomenas and events. Note that the video is 2 years old (2019, but just came up on my algorithm) and I am not affiliate in anyway to the creator, who should be given credit/kudos/love/comments to. It is also half an hour long so maybe watch it at 1.5x or 2x if you're pressed for time -- but honestly a trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion years condensed down to 30 minutes (when the last black hole evaporates) is quite a feat and should be enjoyed in all its glory :D the music is pheromonal too.

I just wanted to share, and also, if NMS's dev | Sean can see this, if any of those events and phenomenas can be added to the game for us, even just to be witnessed and discovered -- this will BLOW OUR COLLECTIVE MIND and would elevate the game to The Most Important Game Ever Made Or Will Ever Be Made status!

But anyway, enjoy the video.

I am very new. Starter planet is a bleak, toxic wasteland.... Is this normal? [Answered]

The planet is DEATHLY gray, essentially colorless. Acid rains torrentially pour down on this forsaken hellhole. Hulking, creepy, small-headed predators stalk the surface, and pesky robotic sentinels are always scanning.

I pretty much have to live underground, as I cannot last more than about 1 and a half minutes on the surface before straight up dying to the brutally toxic atmosphere. If i recall the hazard level is perpetually about 60, but gets worse sometimes.

Silver lining, perhaps: there are tons of these weird humming sacs underground which contain albumen pearls.

I thought the planets in this game were generally colorful and cheery? Did I get some wicked depressing RNG, lol?

How do you deal with 'Hostile scan detected'? [Question]

I'm a relatively new permadeath player, who is pretty proud of making it past the first planet without online advice. I found I like the added motivation to look into tactics, the shield upgrades, and actually having real risk involved when away from base.

Anyway I feel pretty comfortable dealing with common threats now, but HOSTILE SCAN DETECTED still stresses me out! I feel like no matter how many shield upgrades you have, more pirates can just come. I also feel like the number of pirates per ambush has steadily been going up for me, where last time my poor explorer ship had to fight off a small armada with SHIELD DOWN screaming and sparks everywhere. I have the emergency warp upgrade now, but I don't feel too safe. I hear you're way more likely to die from a fall or an extreme storm, but it doesn't feel that way. Getting shot at rattles me way more.

Can any veterans (pref permadeath) comment how they counter these threats?

Alien race alternate start expeditions [Suggestion]

What if we had a 24/7 expeditions like game-mode that allows us to immersively start the game as one of the three mains races?

We would be given starter ships which match the style of the race you choose Such as vykeen starts with fighter, korvax explorer etc.

Configuration of starting mutli-tool is based off race aswell.

Vykeen have weapon modules

Korvax have better scanning modules

Gek have better mining modules

You start with one language almost fully known. Gek starts with gek etc

Each race has different milestones and rewards. Korvax has more exploration and scientific tasks and rewards while vykeen will be mostly combat oriented and the gek obviously trading.

they could even add in the 3 home-worlds as starting locations for each race!

Building Limit Reached... I think it's time for me to go. [Information]

I've been with the game since day one. It's given me an absurd number of hours of enjoyment and I am grateful for all the relief and escape it provided over the years — certainly more than any other game I've ever played.

Over the summer I reached the game's building limit and since then I've been building and deleting so I can build more. I've had to bulldoze some of my favorite creations to make space for new work on new worlds.

Now, I think I've reached my own limit and it is time to move on. I wish everyone the best — it's an amazing game and has been for a very long time. I might pop back for an hour or two if there are further updates, and if Hello Games ever decides to move to DLC, I'll buy it sight unseen and jump back in — they've earned that.

Pioneers Expedition: Problem, small rant and abandoned systems [Question]

Hi, I'm someone how has limited time to play (life can be busy), but I was very happy that the Expeditions were once again available. It's a very nice coincidence, considering the fact that at the ending of last expedition I asked you what's it all about. Once again - thank you for your help then.

Now I'm managed to almost complete Pioneers, absolutely wonderful fun, kinda forced me to use mechanics I avoided previosly and they turned out to be absolute fire! All but one thing - searching for a undiscovered, abandoned system. I've spent hours upon hours, I've checked dozens of systems (and I'm not joking, something like 50-70 at least) and I found absolutly nothing! Other missions were nice and fun. With this one I'm frustrated at best. I guess it made sense when there was much less players or the universe was much less charted, but now?

I have a S-class ship aquired from one of the missions, sadly my B-class freighter can jump just slighly further than my ship, I got radars, so I (try to) only visit systems with low economy and no info about conflict level, but despited uncharted neigbourhs, each time the abandoned system was already discovered. Having to fight off pirates every 2-3 systems is like a salt to the wound.

Is there any logical options? Or I have to wander in hope of finally finding the abandoned system or cope with not finishing the expedition? I'd be really dissapointed though :(

This is not something I expected to be implemented at all, since it appears to be quite complex to get done. But I've found this ringed planet I called Teal that have a giant land made of sand with some low dunes and lakes that runs underneath the strip forming a complex underwater cave system, anyway, I called the area Salty Lakes and Salty wetlands.

Antimatter housing blueprint unfindable [Question]

Can a kind soul please guide me?

I have been trying to craft some antimatter housing to fuel my hyperdrive, but it seems I dont have the blueprint. I already did the quest where you need antimatter + housing in order to leave the solar system. I Left shortly after to continue the main story after buying the antimatter housing I needed from a vendor and I was able to craft the antimatter myself. But then I suddenly found myself out of fuel after exploring space a little.

So now I want to recharge again BUT

Unfortunately I am only able to craft antimatter, no housing... I'm already on the "alone amidst the stars" questline. The NMS Wiki says I should have the housing blueprint as well by now. Did I do something wrong? I don't want to start over again and I really want that blueprint. Seems annoying that I need to find a vendor that sells them all the time.

Thanks in advance.

Question about coop saves [Question]

Hello all.

From my understanding, the way coop works is that everybody gets their own saves. This means that if I work on the base when my friends not on, then they log on without me there they will not see the progress correct?

Is there any way around this? A mod? A cloud? Just seems a little weird that I can only progress if everybody is there to progress (or the person who has progressed the most).

Basically I want to build something with friends, but we want to be able to progess if we aren't playing together at that time.

Thank you for your help.

Need a medium/large group of people to do a Grand Strategy-esque game of NMS with. [LFG - Massive Grand Strategy Campaign]

Hello! I've had this idea for a while now, but I've never had a large enough group of people to make it work.

Starting with brand new characters, we would all get our stuff working on our private ships, and then would complete the tutorial all the way up to getting antimatter for our ships. Then, once everybody has completed the Antimatter quest, we would all travel to our own respective stars (in our first jump, nobody is allowed to go to the same star as another person, unless those people have decided that they want to play together, or as allies). Whichever star that we jump to, would become our Home System.

The goal is to get your name on as many findings as you can, to make as many credits as possible, and to become the most influential player in the shortest amount of time. There would be a two-hour grace period at the 'start' (when we all land at our home systems), and then all bets would be off. Players will be able to attack other players, sabotage other buildings, etc, but obviously the best way to make the most influence early-game would be to travel throughout the galaxy and get your name on things.

If you're interested, or you think something about this idea should be changed, feel free to leave a comment!

Multi-jump course plotting. [Suggestion]

It would work like this: You could plan out as many jumps in advance as you had fuel in the hyperdrive for. It wouldn't break the game because jump range and fuel efficiency would still be real issues.

It could even be something that was exclusive to freighters. Or there could be the possibility of running into a space battle and that would force you deal with that (either by fighting or running) before you could continue.

I just think it would be nice from an immersion point of view.

Unless these are recurring events, expeditions still make the game feel like an obligatory chore. [Discussion]

HG doing a re-run of the previous expeditions is nice, but it doesn’t solve their inherent problem.

Nowadays seasons, time limited events, battle passes, and all kinds of FOMO shit is present everywhere in the gaming industry. Gaming often feels like a job now, “if you don’t play this game right now you’ll miss out on this cool shit you’ll regret not getting!”. It’s not fun, it accelerates burnout, and people always miss out.

So in a chill, wonderful game like NMS, FOMO doesn’t belong. This is the one game that you should never feel pressured to play.

So, to alleviate this without screwing HG over entirely, I propose the annual event approach (like Overwatch). Or, at the very least, the promise that nothing’s ever gonna stay locked away forever (like Warframe).

Pc vs ps5? Pc dualsense support? [Question]

So I just started the game up in steam, trying to decide where I want to continue playing nms after I lucked my way into a ps5. It's a tough call, my laptop runs nms at 4k dlss performance and stays around 60fps, and I can also run my hue lights through my pc which makes nms an amazing experience. The ps5 looks a bit sharper overall and has the adaptive triggers which I really enjoy, but it seems like the render distance is turned down and the frame rate isn't quite as smooth. First world problems, I know, but does anyone have any advice?

Thanks [Discussion]

I don’t know why I feel the need to share this, I’m just in a weird head space today I guess.

Just wanted to say Thank You to Hello Games for this wonderful game and universe. Discovering new planets and systems is the coolest shit especially when you come across one already discovered and named by someone else, despite the odds in this gigantic universe.

This game has helped me so much with closure for ones I have lost. The past few years have taken a lot from me, I’ve always struggled with coping with losing someone. But NMS gave me an outlet and allowed me to find somewhere beautiful that I can name in honor of lost loved ones. I always look for a new Paradise planet with lots of life. Just somewhere nice.

I don’t know why I spend hours looking for the right planet and leave them forever after naming it. Maybe just to make myself feel better, maybe to leave some form of them, maybe another traveller will stumble across the system and think about them. Either way it helps me. I just think about them still existing in some form out there and it makes me happy.

They’ve probably been wiped in some update by now or something and that’s okay. Nothing is forever.

I have named two systems in honor of two friends who left us prematurely, i hope someone came across their systems because they were both such incredibly nice people.

My dog passed away unexpectedly this summer and it hit me hard. I was in the middle of a NMS spout and idk i must of spent an hour or two alone just looking for the perfect planet and i eventually found it. A green paradise planet with lots of animals and beautiful water. The kind you would find and say “oh yeah this is my next base”.

I haven’t been able to get back on since. My character is still on that planet and I’m honestly scared to go back on. I will eventually but idk.

Anyway sorry for the rant.

Dont feel like posting this now...

Crashed ship repairing and wiring looms [Discussion]

Is there practically only 1 way of acquiring a new ship?

I just recently re-started playing after a long time and am having a blast. I imposed a few rules on myself, mostly to avoid trivializing money and forcing myself to mine ~all of my resources so that I enjoy the game for longer. One of the most exciting things when you are broke is finding a big upgrade that you can work towards, this usually comes in the form of a new ship or multi-tool. When I found my first crashed ship I was excited as it was slightly larger but required some repairs. Normally I love doing this sort of thing but when I found a few repair slots that required wiring looms (which can't be crafted and are quite expensive when you have no money, at least last I checked) it really killed my motivation to do so. I ended up scrapping that ship and the next 2 I found just to make more money to buy a ship from the space station which I had really hoped to avoid...

I want to ask you guys, what is the point of the repair mechanic? Does it increase the value of the ship if I repair slots? Some of the repair costs are quite high and add up. And does anyone actually ever repair a ship to use? If not it seems like bad design to have only 1 real way of acquiring a new ship which involves making money and waiting in a space station/trade terminal to see what shows up. I think wiring looms should be removed from the damaged parts/repair process, or the profit of scrapping/selling a ship should be dramatically altered by repairs. For anyone in the same boat as me, the workaround I found is if you get upgrade modules (I got a bunch from practicing language with korvax) you can install and scrap them for wiring lumes instead of selling them for nanites. But this doesn't solve the problem of the lack of diversity in finding ships.

This is not fully related but I also found multi-tool exchanges in minor...

So you can see right through where the cockpit should be.

Glitched ship on PC

​

I'm on PC. But I first encountered the ship on Xbox (Gamepass). I've tried logging off/on, reinstalling on PC, moving the ship to my freighter and different starports, revisiting the starport multiple times. Nothing works so far. I might re-download on Xbox to see if it's glitched on that platform as well. Any help on fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

First post here and I have about 50 hours in the game, so I'm relatively new. I have Googled around to find an answer on this but haven't found any. Please point me in the right direction if this question has already been answered elsewhere. Thanks!

I have warped to the system where the galaxy map said it would be. Now that I'm here I can't find the marker/icon on any of the planets. I have made sure that the mission is marked in the log. There are 5 planets and one moon and I have scanned all of them even though they all have been discovered already. Am I missing something or doing something wrong? Is this a bug?

My base parts are as follows: 2x Landing Pads 8x Solar Panels 3x Square Prefabs 1x Cylindrical Prefab 13x Straight Corridor 2x Curved Corridors 4x Battery 1x Ladder 1x Storage Container 3x Prefab Door

I just need to know if this is somehow where the limit is or if I have encountered a bug. I have been searching for an hour now and all I see is a bug from two years ago with similar circumstances. Should I just delete my base and move elsewhere or is there any way to fix this issue?

Finding the North Pole [Question]

So I read somewhere that if you can find a pole then you'll have sunlight forever. But in the two times I've found what I assume to be the pole it's been the middle of the night! It does go to daytime but my experience proves that the poles don't mean infinite sun!

All I did was follow the north on my compass until it disappeared. I'm not sure if there is some other way to find the pole (and if there is, why is the compass wrong?) like with coordinates or something but I wonder can someone shed some light on the situation for me?

Basically just wanting to build a solar powered base that doesn't need any (or many) batteries.

I was trying to save up for the max storage capacity on my freighter, because I thought that was a good thing, but with 10 storage container units we can install, those extra 10 or so slots on the general storage seem pretty pointless compared to the 250 slots you get for the storage containers.

Do you have any advice on starting out multiplayer and/or things you wish you knew when you started (with out ruining any story lines if there are any)?

Example:

  • Make sure you don't throw away purple pocket lint as it is impossible to find and you need 30,000 lbs of it later in game.

  • Or don't both start on the same planet or there isn't enough resources to ___.

I'm a casual player who is very disappointed with the time-limited aspect of Expeditions. [Suggestion]

Due to the time limits and my own non-expert casual, occasional play it's very hard for me to complete the Expeditions during their limited run. Since returning to play NMS occasionally in September I failed to complete Cartographers, managed to finish Emergence and am now going to fail to finish Pioneers.

Everything takes longer due to my unfamiliarity with the many game systems, and Sunday realized that given how long Frigate missions take and how slowly my Explorers rep grind is going that there was no way I could finish by the 7th given the limited time I have to play.

(To compound the issue, when I finally quit Sunday's session that I let go far longer than it should have, NMS.exe sat eating 100% CPU until after 10 or 15 minutes I gave up and killed the process. Now it won't start at all; I tried to fire it up to see how many hours I had in my Pioneers save and it sits without even showing a splash screen.)

It makes no sense to me why No Man's Sky, one of the most casual-friendly games there is, would add something which so punishes casual players. Expedition time limits are a really jarring change compared to the mellow experience of normal play.

To me the wording of Sean Murray's announcement of the Expedition reprise is telling:

Starting today and running through the holidays we will be allowing players to revisit Expeditions they may have missed! [Emphasis added.]

It would be much better if Hello Games were supporting casual players to complete the content by letting us take as long as we need and not excluding those who play occasionally.

The special, limited aspect of Expeditions could be preserved, too, by restricting Expedition save starts to a limited availability period, but removing the time limit for their completion.

As it is now any time spent on uncompleted Expedition saves...

Trade price is about 40 million but selling it for scrap doesn't even give me 4 million (due to broken slots) Question is do I repair and scrap..or just trade it since at least with trading it shows the full value allowing me to exchange it for an A class fighter for free as a fighter doesn't cost that much at all.

Also my starting system had a cool planet. Bubbles and a werid colour shift that turned my starting ship silver with green engines XD

Base Building On Storm Planets [Suggestion]

Has anyone actually worked out how to completely secure a base from the atmosphere of the planet? I've read so many comments about not building over two walls high, but no matter what I do, even my single story bases still give that red effect while indoors. It's not game breaking but it would be nice from an immersion perspective, to feel a little safer when I get back to base. I've tried using the airlock doors, but it seems they can only be used on the pre-made base parts and not on single walls or even placed over normal doors. I'll eventually find a good looking planet without these hectic storms every five minutes, using the vehicles in the storms is horrendous as their handling is sketchy to begin with, let alone not having any visibility from the weather. I think I will have to find a separate Water World to get the most out of the Sub, has anyone found any really deep waters on certain planets, or it's all just rng luck? Any tips would be appreciated.

Anyone else unhappy with the time-limited nature of Expeditions? [Discussion]

When I first started playing NMS I really enjoyed just exploring all the fascinating worlds. Discovering the things I could do piece by piece. Revealing the languages, unlocking the buildables, crafting elaborate recipes. It was fun. And when I finally got around to trying Expeditions (3, which I feel is still an excellent one), it was an experience of enjoyment all over again. I had a month in which to do it and plenty of help available from the always-generous community. So when I saw that the old Expeditions were being rerun I was pretty keen.

Unfortunately, it's been a lot less enjoyable this time around. I've had a very busy couple of weeks. I've only been able to play it for a couple of days. The expedition ends in a matter of hours and I'm only through Phase 3 (with a couple objectives from 4 and 5 done), and that's with having done nothing else the last couple of days, including some things that really should've taken priority. I'm not going to make it. It might be that the really pro players could hammer this out with ease in my situation. But right now, it's become a chore. It's been nothing but mass stress (and for naught, as I'm not going to succeed).

I know that seasonal challenges are common in games and exclusive rewards for doing so are well-regarded. But I think Hello Games have made a mistake in this. NMS is a game about discovery, exploration, taking it chill and at your own pace, and Expeditions as designed work against that - especially on this greatly reduced timescale (during one of the busiest times of the year, no less). I love the guided objectives, the rewards that build together, the sense of accomplishment. That part of Expeditions is stellar. But time limiting it, to me, works against everything that NMS should be.

Does the procgen engine use any kind of real time variables to generate some aspects of new planets? [Question]

In other words, does it use for example the date and time of first contact to help generate some of the assets?

On one hand, this would be cool because it would mean that some aspects of the universe actually depend on discovery. On the other, it would be bad, because it would create a sense of “sameness” in what is supposed to be an infinite universe.

The reason I am asking is because I often have the strange experience of finding suspiciously similar assets during play sessions, even when I travel incredible distances. And then, eerily, I will often get on reddit and find that other players are posting pics that include only slight variations on the same theme of the same assets. This is true even when the asset are something I have never seen before.

So for instance, I discovered a planet yesterday with non-scannable giant assets taken from the collection of assets usually used to spawn underwater flora. So the whole surface of the planet was littered with giant swaying seaweed. I have clocked over 800 hours since launch and visited 100s of planets and have never seen anything like it. A few minutes later, I jump in my freighter, travel 5,000 LY, and BAM, the first planet I land on has the exact same giant swaying seaweed (with minor procgen variety spinkled on top)! It was unbelievable!

So I wonder if the engine uses a clock to generate certain features in real time. On one hand, it would be amazing because it means a planet doesn’t really exist until someone discovers it, but on the other hand, it would be boring, because it would explain why, no matter what extreme measures the player takes, planets keep feeling the same somehow.

Does the engine use play-time, or a universal clock, to generate planets?

Is there a way to accelerate / force terrain to grow back? [Question]

Yeah, I know, 1st world problems ^^

I'm building a base where I want to make use of the geology, and so I've stuffed stuff (building parts like floor boards etc.) into the landscape. With the result that these parts change the terrain, and my mountain now looks like a swiss cheese.

I knew that would happen, but had hoped that a few days and a few reloads would take care of the problem. Well, it didn't. It's been weeks, and the terrain didn't grow back yet, and I really can't start the finetuning of the base as long as my walls aren't where they're supposed to be. I also don't want to use the terrain manipulator to create the missing parts, because a) it looks always hacked and b) these manipulations aren't permanent either.

No Night Base [Screenshot]

I finally made it into Eissentam. Went to it's core, where I started looking for nice system where I can settle down and build a base. I won't lie, it took me one or two warps from core, and I found blue star system with Tropical planet. I read what Galaxies are for, and they basically increase chance of some planet type in system. Eissentam is Lush Galaxy and you have very high chance to find Lush planet in Yellow system. For all galaxies, probabilities in Red, Green and Blue systems are unchanged.

So basically I found tropical planet in Blue system two warps from core. Good right? That's not everything. Yes, that planet isn't perfect (Aggresive sentinels). But it's beautiful. I was looking for place where is mostly just water and no ground, land. First place I landed is on the screenshot. I built base computer here and started building a base.

Nothing weird, everything normal. I was building bridge and the exterior of the base. It took me a while, really. After few game days, I have noticed, that since I landed, there was no night. Like no dark sky or something, it was always day or at worst, sunset. I looked at local time, and it was about 03:00 AM. And it looked exactly as in screenshot.

So I started to watch what is happening, and apparently it takes a long time for Star to get under horizon and when it's here, it stays here until is about 8 AM, when there's sunrise. So basically at that specific location, I have Sunrise -> Day -> Sunset. Meaning I have infinite Solar energy. When I land on the same planet but at land-somewhere else, there is normal day-night cycle. So I really don't understand, why is this happening.

Second warp from core, Tropical planet in Blue star system, first place I have landed on this planet has no night. And my first "big" base which doesn't look like small crappy shelter or is underwater.

TL;DR:

I found place on Tropical planet in Blue system in...

Advice please. Can't access fleet control room. [Question]

Hello, Xbox player here, just joined and was looking for some advice.

I created a fleet control room on my freighter which I can't get into, this wouldn't be a problem but I have a debrief waiting in there...

It's not the usual blocked access though, I can see in but it's like there's an invisible wall stopping me from getting in, the junction next to the control room is the same, I think maybe I created it outside the boundary of the ship. I can't edit the placement as it won't highlight. I even tried buying a new freighter of a different type. Is there a different way to debrief the mission? Anything else I could try?

Here's a slightly glitchy photo showing it's position relative to the freighter.

Are planetary charts from the Cartographer worth the time after early game? [Question]

Not only are they time consuming bc they require me to travel around the system and a planet, most of the time I only get a few nanites or a free tech.

What is the difference between the galaxies? I made it to the center of Euclid and I think i picked a green star, I got to a new galaxy but I'm back at Euclid? Do I have to re-reach the center to get to a new galaxy? Can I use teleporters to go from galaxy to galaxy?

What is the point of Advanced Construction Materials and Advanced Components? The locally produced goods at every space station. They are for sale everywhere and they look important, but I haven't found a use for them. Pretty much every item that has a white box.

How do you properly use freighters? They just seem like a hindrance. Can't get my stuff from the freighter on a planets surface. Expeditions gather a negligible amount of units and stuff. Just seems like it's not really worth my time.

What do I get for spending 50k nanites on a ship?

Hello friends. I'm new to these expeditions and completed my first one and waited for the next one to start. I was joking I could continue the next expedition in my old saved file in which I completed my first expedition. But seems I cannot. Do we have to start a new save file for every expedition? Or can we start it in the old one where I've finished the first expedition?

Ps. When is the next expedition going to start? Could someone tell me the exact time please?

How many times can I claim the golden vector? [Question]

I picked this game up for the first time last week and completed Expedition 1 in a few days, so I am extremely new and clueless. I understand I can claim another golden vector at the anomaly, is this a once per save claim or a once per user? If I claim it for expedition 2 can I claim it again in expedition 3? Thanks for the help.

Some n00bish questions [Discussion - n00b talk]

I've been playing for about 2-3 months, so I think I'm a n00b, though I've logged a ton of hours, so I know a thing or two but I know I have lots to learn....also, if anyone else has any questions, I'm happy to take a stab at answering, or, the community is great at answering as well

Some questions I have:

Settlements: I finally started, and I like this added gameplay, but is there any way to prompt more buildings or anything? I would love to be more active in my settlement, but it's like one building decision at a time and it's kinda slow moving, so I figured I'd ask if there were any ways to "enrich" the experience

Freighter Blueprints: So, on my current ongoing save, which was an expedition save that converted to normal, I skipped the freighter "mission" that gives the bigger freighter fuel blueprints and I can't seem to figure out how to get them...I've read that it used to be the case that if you missed it, you were out of luck, but since then they've made it possible to get them after the fact.

I've tried new freighters, resetting base, and other things to try to get the mission to proc, but it's showing up

I'm sure I have more that are escaping me, but want to put these out there

New in the game and I think my Galactic Core quest is glitched... Or i just don't understand this [Question]

After doing a lot of stuff I think I'm ready for reaching the galactic core. So I made a bunch of Warp Cells, opened the Galaxy Map and started following the Galactic Core route.

But my issue is that I can only travel a couple of galaxies at once because of the hyperdrive range, and every single time I open the Galaxy Map to keep traveling to the core the route is completely different.

It feels like I'm going nowhere and just wasting warp cells.

Am I missing something or is this how it's supposed to work? Am I just supposed to keep following the constantly changing route and I'll get there eventually?

Construction terminal for settlement building inside terrain [Bug]

I believe it is not a new bug, and it happens from time to time, but I cannot find any workaround for it. Am I essentially stuck with this settlement development and need to find a new one and hope it would not bug out in a same way, or is there something I can try to do? I read that sometimes after loading building might jump into air and get accessible if they are stuck in small hill, but in my case it stuck in giant tall mountain, no way it would glitch out of it.

Creatures KI [Question]

I recently saw the "gameplay" trailer from 2014 again and I really wish so much that the creatures ki will be worked on. It would be really nice if the animals interact with the environment as it is shown there.. when the giant Horn-alien tramples the trees and roars while a herd of small alien animals flee.

Moving objects deletes object behind the moves [Bug]

I recently purchased the game for PC. I love the base building, but moving an object deleted other stuff seemingly at random.

I noticed now that when i left click something to move it, whatever is behind the clicked object where my mouse cursor points turns blue like when you hover over it in edit-mode, and the moment i place the first object, the other objects gets deleted without giving me any resources.

The only thing this doesn't apply to is the base computer, which i can move around without any of that happening. Anybody got any idea what could possibly cause this weird bug?

What’s your favorite post “end game” activity? [Discussion]

I put end game in quotes since the game never really ends. But I mean after you knock out the main quest lines, reset the simulation, enter the black hole, etc. what do you like to do?

I’ve personally been slowly working my way to getting Rememberance, which I haven’t gotten yet in over 100 hours of play on a couple saves. I enjoyed building out my settlement until a recent update shifted all my sidewalks and decorations, ruining the whole layout. I’ve basically kitted out a reskinned exotic to have max speed which I always wanted to do. Every once in a while I’ll find a unique planet and explore, just cruising a couple hundred feet above the ground lookin for buildings. The update that improved cave systems is one of my favorite recent additions, I can wander around the tunnel systems for a while just listening to the soundtrack.

Should I share my home base? [Question]

Last year during the pandemic, I picked up NMS and played for 100 hours. In that time I was lead to a couple of AI farms and decided I wanted an S-Tier of mine own. I eventually found one on what I feel is my perfect planet. Orange-pink skies, mostly water but plenty of land to build a few bases, bubbles and rainbows, 2 species of android doggo. Never above ~100 degrees or below ~80, even the storms are just more bubbles and some wind noises. It's truly beautiful. I almost feel like I have to share it.

The issue I have is that the access to AI can easily sap the fun out of the journey in this game, and to be frank I'd really love for someone to happen upon it by chance.

Any opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Hoping they add ship-building eventually. [Suggestion]

Possible system could be…. 1. Ships can be scrapped for parts 2. Only S-Class ships can be broken down 3. Breaking down a ship will yield 1-3 pieces randomly, or 1 piece can be selected 4. All collected pieces then become plans for creating future parts (built with in-game materials) 5. Parts can also be painted, maybe with a system similar to freighter recoloring

Parts would only fit their respective ship types of course. Maybe even include the ability to swap out ship parts as well once one is built. I think it’d be a ton of fun. Thoughts?

Um, yeah...I just ended up with 50,000 Storage Augmentations in a single stack [Bug]

So my game crashed while making fusion ignitors, which I found odd, since in all the time I've played it's never crashed. When I booted back up, the 1 storage augmentation I had in my inventory changed to...50,000. In a single stack. It is valued about -2.5 billion units. Yes, negative. The integer probably wrapped around.

Strangely, when I split the stack, it only fits 15 in each other inventory space, but when I move them back, it can go all the way back up to 50,000, but only in that one inventory space.

Is this a known bug? Any concerns about it crashing my game?

Base parts (specifically floors) disappearing into thin air [Bug]

Has anyone else encountered this issue: You have a base built and you decide you want to move some stuff around, so you pick up something, for example a teleporter, and place it somewhere else. But as soon you place it somewhere else the floor tile that it used to be on just disappears as if it was never there. This is slightly annoying. However, it becomes aggravating when you are working with prefabs and the same thing happens, except this time the entire room disappears due to it all being one piece. This happens to me almost every single time I try to move something in my base, and when the prefab disappears everything in it disappears as well and no resources are refunded. Is there a reason why this is happening and is it preventable? It really puts a damper on base building and I’d like to know how to fix it if I can.

Just another PSA from your friendly Wizard that may help new and old players alike. You can make infinite Di-hydrogen for your starship fuel. [Information]

So this is mostly for those who are on a planet that's actively trying to kill them, though it's come in handy for me a few times. All you need is a refiner, and 30 Di-hydrogen.

Simply put the 30 into the refiner, wait 1 minute, and you'll get 1 Di-hydrogen Jelly. Now put that jelly back into the refiner, and you get 50 Di-hydrogen. Put 20 aside, and make another jelly. Now revert, and you have 70, which can make 2 jelly. Revert and repeat as long as you need to.

This can be time consuming, which is why I mentioned it's mostly for those stuck on lethal planets with little else to do bar wonder what they did to anger the First Spawn. Nothing worse than burning sodium while desperately searching for tiny patches of blue crystals.

When crafting inventory items, does the game auto-select materials from within storage containers? [Question]

So I was just on a planet, at a settlement, creating a new building and I needed to craft some Aronium. I'm familiar with the item since I often make Stasis Devices and Fusion Igniters, but I knew I didn't have any Ionised Cobalt on me. However, the game allowed me to craft the Aronium.

I checked several times and I definitely didn't have Ionised Cobalt in any of my inventories. I thought maybe it was a weird bug, so I kept crafting Aronium until I could make no more.

I then travelled to another system, where I have a storage container in which I keep raw materials for my Stasis Devices, and almost all my Ionised Cobalt was gone from storage. Apparently when I crafted the Aronium it took the Ionised Cobalt from here!

I tested to see if I could craft something else, using one material from my inventory and one from the storage container, but it wouldn't let me, saying I was missing one of the materials.

So was it just a weird bug, or a feature I'm not aware of? I've been out of the game for a while and lots of things have changed.

Laggy on last gen. [Bug]

No Mans Sky is probably my favorite game of all time, the concept, the exploration, the commitment to constantly making it better, etc.. I’ve played a lot of games but never a game like this. I won’t even play it anymore on my xbox one s though because it’s become so buggy with everything they’d added. At any of my bases or at the new settlements, it lags so much it’s just not fun. I would play this game all day every day if it was optimized :/ and I’m missing so much right now with the expedition’s..

Multi tool question [Question]

Hi all! Relatively new player, at least when it comes to swapping around multi tools. I found a very good B class with 22 slots very early and have had it for ages never bothering to keep an eye out for a new one. Just happened across a really good S class with 24 slots and I’m hesitant to purchase it incase I lose all the really good S upgrades I have on my current multi tool. How does this work? Can I swap upgrades over? Do I start from scratch? Thanks in advance, Sid.

Exocraft controls [Discussion]

Is it me or do the controls feel too... "overprotective"? A lot of them try to feel intuitive and natural, but they end up being difficult and frustrating for anything except going forward to your next target. It's like they try to make it as easy as possible without giving the player a real sense of total control.

My biggest gripe is that you can't look around. How are you supposed to reverse in a vehicle without looking behind you? The A and D keys do nothing. Every other driving game let's you do this. Maybe Hello Games thinks it's unnecessary, but it ends up killing my sense of immersion.

Don't get my started on piloting the minotaur. I think the longest I've been in one is 45 seconds.

Is Expedition 2 Redux actually shorter? [Question]

I missed completing Expedition 2 the first time cuz it was only two weeks long and I just didn't have the spare time to complete it in such a rush. I'm going to really try this time but having heard that Hello Games is truncating the Expedition Reduxes for time makes me wonder is 2 going to be shorter / easier to accomplish this time around, given it's the same length of time as before?

Hey interlopers I’m looking for some feedback, what are your favorite things to do every time you login?

Frigate Layout [Question]

I’m trying to design a ship in a 3D model in the same style as the combat frigates. Does anyone know if there’s any kind of information on design of these floating around anywhere? Haven’t been too successful doing Google searches, but thought there might be a niche market for these types of things.

anyone know if multiplayer can act like realms from minecraft? [Question]

Been playing the game for quite a while now, and i always found myself getting really bored of the game after about 2 to 4 weeks, but i recently brought it up to some of my friends, and theyd be down to play. but im curious, as single player saves and multiplayer saves are different, does anybody know if the muliplayer saves act like realms from minecraft, where the original starter of the world doesnt have to actually be in the game for the other party members to join that world with all the saved buildings in the game?

Keep or sell a 48 slot C class hauler? [Question]

Found a crashed C class hauler with 48 slots. I could junk it for 22.75 million units, or I could keep it around, but its only C class. I'm mostly going to be using my S class shuttle anyway (35 slots) but is it worth keeping do you think? or should I cash in?

I couldn't find the answer but do the expedition rewards change if you have already completed the expedition? I just completed the first one but it was my first time doing so. Has anything changed or do you get an extra Normandy if you complete 2 again?

How do the developers continue to make money off this game? [Question]

I’m a late comer to NMS so I wasn’t there at the beginning to compare the changes made but from what I gather the games been significantly updated and added to. I’m genuinely curious how they’re managing to afford the additional work and development since the game is a single time purchase and not a pay to play. The additional content hasn’t even been released as a paid DLC. That’s weird, right? I’m not crazy for wondering how they are able to afford that, right? Are they just relying on new people buying this 6 (or however many) year old game for the first time? Is that really enough revenue to afford the updates?

citizens stuck in a settlement building because stairs aren't clipping properly [Bug]

I have a building in my settlement right in front of the governor's HQ, that has 2 entrances on the 2nd level, zero entrances on the first level, and all the citizens get stuck trying to leave the 1st floor because the stairs aren't clipped properly to the floor on the 2nd level.

They go down and can't come back up and all get stuck at the same spot at the top of the stairway.

Can I move my base to a different planet? [Question]

I've read a few posts about moving your base but since there were from different years, I'm not sure. Basically, I'm sick of the fugly orange planet I'm on. It's in my starter system and I've found a much prettier planet as I've explored. I have an Overseer, Scientist, and Armorer. Is there anyway I can move all of those guys, their stations, and my storage to the new planet? I know I'll need a teleporter to make trips back and forth. How do I "set" that place as my base?

Can we have the legacy building pieces back? [Suggestion]

Technically they weren't removed; any character who got them keeps them. But, 1. I never got them all, 2. I kinda liked some of them astheticly, and 3. New characters cannot get them anymore.

I kinda always hate when content is removed. Why you gotta do that?

Also, more pet and ship slots PLZ!!!

Expedition 2 strange new things [Question]

I've noticed a couple things in expedition 2 I've never seen before, albeit I'm relatively new to the game overall. Are these unique to the expeditions, this expedition, or some weird bugs? In the starting system space station, several of the Gek NPCs were labeled as "visited" when I definitely had not spoken with them yet, and the free word was already learned. I jumped several systems away, en route to the first rendevous, and a space station had several NPCs that I could not even interact with. The usual roaming Geks, were definitely NPCs, but I could not speak to them. I've never seen this in my regular saves before. Again there was an NPC labeled as "visited" which I definitely had not spoken to yet. Other people were in my freighter! I recall reading somewhere that only one player controlled freighter can be in a system at a time. This seemed like everyone was in "their" freighter, but it was the "same" freighter. Is this unique to the expedition or is this how the game handles multiple player freighters in the same system?

My ship just changed appearance and name for no absolute reason [Question]

Hi Everyone!

So, I started playing few days ago and was doing my missions with the first ship (Radiant Pillar). When I was doing my missions (exactly where you get the Advanced Laser Mining) I found a ship (really cool). It has massive storage (33 slots in general and 10 in tech).

I continued playing normally with my new ship until the mission where you go through a portal to talk to Artemis grave. There I needed to go to my shit and get out of that place, but when I got there my ship changed appearance to the starter one, and I can't figure out what happened or what ship I had. It still says I only have the Radiant Pillar.

When I go to my freighter, my Radiant Pillar is there but my actual ship is with me, and they have the same model but with different collors, and I remember it being a round one (the style that looks like a bug).

I decided then to see if I could find it in the ship catalog at the wiki, the closest I found was this one: The Master of Flight (AGT Brahan Vision), but it has 9 tech slots and 31 general slots and it got stats really similar to my actual ship.

Anyone can tell me what happened?

Here is a screenshot of my ship now.

Naming Flora/Fauna when you discover a gorgeous planet [Discussion]

I haven’t found one of the amazing planets I see on the coordinate exchange yet and of course I rarely bother naming the stuff. But when discover but when I find a home planet I like to name shit. Usually it’s just a quick goofy name like if I find a striped insect looking thing I’ll name it ZebraBug.

It helps slightly when walking around the planet but also is just more interesting than seeing the unpronounceable names.

If I ever find a place worth posting on the coordinate exchange I’m naming everything in the system before I post it

Anyone have experience using the Settlement tab on the Save Editor? [Question]

Hey guys,

Checking out the Save Editor and noticed there is a Settlement tab and was wondering how the Seed/Generate part of it worked?

All the other options don't seem to really affect the settlement, just a visual change? I mean, changing the population to 200 isn't going to give me 200 NPCs running around.

Does anything in this tab actually affect the settlement? For example, everyone wants more bars, who doesn't? Is there a way?

Thanks!

Moving anything destroys the rest of my base... [Bug]

I built a small base using the prebuilts - the cylindrical room, and inside of it I built a teleporter in the middle, with the overseer stations on each side. I wanted to move the cylindrical room somewhere else, and when I selected it, the entire cylindrical room turned blue as if it was selected.

I then moved my teleporter, and the entire cylindrical room along with my overseers got destroyed.

I rebuilt it, annoyed, but then wanted to move a battery. The battery is on the outside of the base, and not touching the cylindrical room. I selected the battery, and it turned the room blue, and when I moved it, it destroyed the entire room I had just rebuilt.

Is this a bug or is there something wrong with how I'm building my base? This is extremely demoralizing and I had to step away from playing because of how frustrating this is.
