I'm not upset about the ps4 update [Discussion]

I am however annoyed and irritated that it isn't being acknowledged by hello games, PSN, any gaming website, or anyone except for the player base who have been left in the dark over the last 14 hours.

Sorry for another ps4 post but a guys gotta rant sometimes.

Drone Friend has made me unusually happy [Discussion]

Got my sentinel companion a bit ago, for some reason completing the mission made me die of happiness for no noticeable reason, i no longer need any other friends or companions, all i need is Laylaps and Alex the Minotaur

all need is Laylaps

Oh and also there is a bug where your drone friend will just start going in a random direction when you do the thing at the pillars during the quest, i missed some dialogue because i despawned and respawned my drone friend since i couldnt reach them, also missed dialogue because i pressed the same area twice without reading the settlers 2nd line during the quest.

Anyone willing to spare an expedition worm egg [Question]

Do things transfer between saves? Talking about stuff like unlocked expedition rewards, and if you have to do the entire living ship questline again or if you can just get egg then ship? [Question]

So, with this new update, and not having played in a few months, AND having my game not really ruined but a good bit of grind removed cause I got gifted a bunch of AI cores or something that was disgustingly valuable and I cashed em in for quick cash, I was not really in the mood to continue it cause while I wasn't decked out in end game stuff I could do so if I bothered hopping system to system and whatnot, so imma start a new game, this time on survival, and see how it changes the game.

My big thing is do I keep unlocked things from expeditions such as cosmetics(also the horrific flesh helmet from derilicts cause I liked that head but farming for tainted metal was time consuming) and also do I have to do that insanely tedious starborn mission to unlock living ships cause I stg that was turbo cancer and I'm only talking about getting there cause I had to plow through the main missions and the growing the parts and all that was annoying but it was worth it.

Anyways, info would be appreciated, thanks! Oh, and also, I heard each mode uses it's own player base so imma find less people in survival or permadeath, right?

Spaceships and space combat update. [Suggestion]

The following is my concept for an update to improve ships, freighters, frigates and space combat while adding new space PVE events along with a PvP event. I am newer to the game as I recently purchased it late last November and only have 110 hours total so far, mostly on normal and running the expedition redux. I only wish I bought this earlier.

Sentinel Space Event: This event will be triggered after a certain amount of sentinels have been defeated in a single system, this number can vary depending on a variety of RNG factors such as star colour, combat/economy level etc. Once triggered you'll receive a notification that sentinels will become hostile towards you in your current system also increasing the presence of sentinels on each planet. You'll receive coordinates in space to go destroy the new sentinel freighter. Players can fight these solo with great difficulty and using their freighter as support (new mechanic explained later) or can choose to bring in some friends to help. The objective will be destroying the freighters systems by targeting specific outer components such as shield arrays and weapon hardpoints, all while dog fighting other sentinels space crafts. Once you achieve enough damage on the freighter you will be able to dock in it and then begin fighting your way through some sentinels to gain access to the command bridge, at which point you hack the system to command all sentinels in the system to revert back to normal status. Upon completion you'll gain a chance through a puzzle for coordinates to a sentinel space station that'll be hidden unless you use the coordinates.

Sentinels Space Station: This station will be a test of teamwork and puzzle solving and has better rewards for the more players working together up to 6. The station will be unguarded on the outside and at the landing pads, but once you enter the station with your friends the door...

How to play in two from the get go? [Question]

Hi guys!

I’ll be returning to NMS after few years and my friend wants to start playing too. We would like to play together from the very beginning (the tutorial of fixing you ship is mandatory to do alone, I know)

So my question is, what’s the best (and soonest) way we can join together and start doing… well, everything, together. We would like to build base(s) together, explore, fight together, go on missions together etc. without loosing the progress after session is over and without having to play solo much.

Softlock warning for the new mission line [Bug]

In the new mission line that arrived with the sentinal update, when you are making the pieces to upgrade your minotaur, you'll get an item called the "Radiant brain" at some point. This is a key item to the questline.

If you somehow end up losing it, the mission softlocks. Normally no man's sky prevents this by detecting a missing key item and either gives it to you or gives you a path to a new one but it doesn't do that here for some reason, so don't mess around with it and just install it.

Then add one or more of the new Anomalous upgrades on top of the usual S class Scatter Blaster upgrades. This is on top of the -15% reload time from the Shell Greaser upgrade.Also, helps to have 3 S-Class Scatter Blaster upgrades.

With this wombo combo, you just repeatedly stun groups of sentinels followed by scatter blaster shots. Makes battle with even the new sentinels a cake walk, especially if you've got decent Exosuit upgrades and you've got the Autopilot for the Exo-Mech helping you out.

Cannot locate base computer on my base [Question]

Hi friends. Brand new player here, only about 2 weeks in.

I’ll get straight to it. I was rearranging things around my base tonight and accidentally deleted my base computer. When I went to build a new one, it said that I “cannot build a base computer within an existing base.” It made me think, “Okay, maybe I didn’t delete it and it’s around here somewhere.” After about 10 minutes of checking, I couldmt find it anywhere. I’ve warped away and rewarped to my base several times and closed out the game and reloaded it a few times, trying to see if it will reappear, but it never does. And every time I try to build a new one, it says the same thing. So now I have a base that, although still registers as my home base, does not have any base computer anywhere to be found.

Any suggestions?

Question about Atlas questline [Question]

Hey, I'm doing my atlas station questline and I got first two seeds. Now I'm following further the red string of Atlas stations on my galaxy map, jumping from a system to another one, however, over several sessions about 3 hours each I haven't stumbled upon any new stations. Whenever I reach "the end" of the red thread, the line just expands further across the galaxy, adding a new endpoint. So I just wanted to check with those of you who completed the questline, if it's the way things should happen, or if it is some kind of bug? Thank you.

Picking up a royal multi-tool could change all of your multi tools into Royal multi-tools [Bug]

I don't know why this happened I reloaded the save, reset the game, but after picking up my first Royal multi-tool from a sentinel pillar all of my other multi tools in my inventory are now Royal multi tools. They have adopted the color schemes they had before the names they had before but are all Now using that same Royal model.

The long-awaited combat update sets a new precedent for the game in the future that I am extremely excited for and proud of [Discussion]

They just did the long-awaited combat update. This sets a huge precedent for future updates to the other aspects of the game's Core Systems. One such core system to the game is Exploration.

Because they've updated Combat, it's highly likely there will be an Exploration update (new planet types, new creature variety, new ships and ship types, etc.) which should help a LOT with the monotony that we tend to feel after playing the game for a while.

I use the Better Planet Generation mod made by WoodyMontana on Nexus Mods which helps a lot with planet fatigue, but creature fatigue and ship fatigue still exist (not to mention the ways that Hello Games can improve planet generation on their end)

Due to the nature of the game, monotony cannot be completely avoided, but the more variety and new features that are added to the RNG and planet generation, the harder it will be to get tired of the core gameplay loop (fly, explore, repeat.)

Many people before me reported that after acquiring royal multitool all their multitools became royal. I was afraid it would happen to me too, made a backup, took a multitool, and... What happened was radially opposite to what I've expected, and, as title implies, well, my multitool was un-royaled into a normal one. That's just ridiculous :D

The purge or Atlas path, question [Question]

I’m now at “the purge” after doing the Artemis path, and it’s pretty clear what I should do. But I have the Atlas path as a main quest to, which I haven’t done anything with since the start.

Which is best to do? I kinda chose “explore” when the game asked me so I thought the Atlas path was done by completing Artemis path. But the I noticed Polo had the Atlas and black hole directions so i reactivated the Atlas path.

So.. does the Purge and Atlas go in tandem or should I do one of them first and then the other. Point me in a direction please. I prefer to follow a single quest at a time then doing the next.

And don’t tell me what happens… just tell me which to do first based on your own experience.

One thing I kinda always hoped would come with a combat update is monstrosities on nest planets. Come out at night in swarms and chase you. Maybe even a new variant or two.

But Please, Hello Games, please charge for the next DLC. You've MORE than made up for the launch, like by several DLCs ago! I have no clue how your company can stay financially viable while working on and releasing all this free content, but I want/need you to succeed.

I need a way to give you money. Introduce cosmetic microtransactions or something, (again, wHaT aM I SaYInG?!) let us pay you for all the hours and hours of content you've given us.

Sean gets a lot of the credit, but all the Devs need a round of applause. 👏👏👏 I looked for a list of them and couldn't find it or I'd list them here for recognition. Point is, everyone at Hello Games needs to be thanked.

Do you sell merch? (I'll check after this post)

Anyone else unable to start the new storyline? [Question]

Pretty sure I missed the communicator signal when I left-planet after the update dropped yesterday, and since then have gotten no signal.

I've visited some sentinel outposts and read some lore, received some Hardframe Engine components, but still no way to follow the storyline.

Any tips or tricks to get it to work? Already reported to Zendesk.

Thoughts on sentinel update? [Discussion]

I think the sentinel update is an inceeodble update for most no man's sky players, especially those who are like myself who enjoy onslaught mode. I think everyone can agree with that, Hello games and the developers really turned the table around and keep bringing more to it.

The free rotating, massive gunplay improvements, settlement quests, expedition, bug fixes. Most updates like this are worth the wait and I love to see this already good game transform, I've seen alot of people go on about what they want patched or added and I can note quite a few in the update.

Combat still not balanced for difficulty [Discussion]

They definately need level difficulties or something for planets.

While this combat update made combat harder technically with more forces and variety.

They also made you be able to get multiple times stronger. Mech autopiloting is op. Stuns are op. New guns are op.

Yet your still facing one giant mech at a time.

There should be more difficult planets or something with higher rewards that send out multiple walker/mechs out. Maybe even send 1 mech out at 1 star

He new sentinels are very annoying [Discussion]

I don't think the way they put up shields or the new sentinels mechanism are annoying. In fact, I love them. They're great additions. My main issues lie in the healers and summoners. For starters, you have to aim for them specifically but every half a second something else gets in your face and you can't. And foe some unknown reason they can just show up in the middle of a wave. That's not how waves work. Plus when you're trying to kill the summoner the healer just heals it anyway

Somehow still have no idea what I am doing [Discussion]

I feel like the title explains it well. I picked up the game during launch, and have played off and on since then. Recently, I lost my original save with 300+ hours. Started a new save. I just now built my first mining base, right near some Moulds. The last few log-ins I've just been running between the two, refine the Mould, sell the copper, and then go to station and Anomaly for various reasons.

It occurred to me last night on my third trip to the station, in like an hour, that I have no idea what the hell I am doing in this game.

I just kinda putz around. I'm not great at building. I got an S Class explorer, but it's a low tier. I got units from all the generous people in the Anomaly. I haven't been exploring much this go, where last save all I did was planet hop.

Maybe it's just me but I feel like I should have accomplished something but just haven't and felt like complaining about it.

Derelict Freighter/Settlement Dungeon Building mechanic? [Suggestion]

Okay, so... Let me make a few assumptions about the audience here.

Raise your hand if you played dungeons and dragons... and/or RPGmaker or the like. anything with a "dungeon builder"...?

ok good. so since you're still reading this, remember the feeling of creating a storyline? creating the puzzles and character arcs? that level of immersion is part of what made those games so much fun for me. building something that you and your friends can create and play together.

now that we have all of these amazing mechanics in the game, I feel like the next step is to start connecting the dots with bigger storylines, higher risks, and greater rewards.

Here's a few summarized concepts of new features I think HG should consider implementing on the building side of the game.

Claimable Derelict Freighters/Settlements - allow players to clear a freighter and claim it as their own. from here you can either sell the freighter for scrap, report and return it's ownership to a guild, or claim the freighter as your own. - a claimed derelict can be reconfigured, expanded, decorated, etc to allow for player made/modified dungeons. - make the tablets from derelicts a craftable item. this would allow for longer text based communication to be written by players so they can build their own storylines and share them with other travelers - craftable unique items, variables, switches, and other "game dev mechanic" items. keys that can be linked to specific locked chests, sentinel and other "enemy spawners". - these mechanics could also be reapplied to perhaps "derelict settlements". allow for vacant settlements to randomly spawn on planets, have them taken over by horrors or sentinels... leave clues in tablets, find the keys, unlock the goods... spawn the "boss"? - settlements could also be inhabited by corrupted korvax, savage vykeen, or zombie gek with aggressive ai?...

PSVR+PS4 PRO patch [Information]

Finally we got the PSVR+PS4Pro patch with the Sentinel update that has been begged since BEYOND in 2019!

The PSVR resolultion increase on PS4 PRO is significant comparing the original PS4 so it is really worth to play on PRO now. I suggest to every PRO owner to get back to the game in PSVR!

What a pity this change was not made sooner (I bet it took only couple hours of work to one of great HG programmers) as I already have PS5 now. But since I still have PRO with second headset as well I can play with friends at home without much VR graphical difference now :-)

Anyway thank you HELLO GAMES for giving the PRO some love. Better late than never. Keep up the great stuff coming!

Multiplayer by running a Server which runs an instance of NMS [Question]

Since our base keeps disappearing if one of us is not online, I'm wondering if it would be allowed and feasible to run a server which runs NMS, keeps the base online and acts as the host player.

This way, one could even host multiple servers and build multiple bases next to each other without the need to be active or upload the base. Maybe someone has already decrypted the network flow, which I could use to build a non resource intense "server"/"host player"?

Make points of interest appear when walking on a planet [Suggestion]

I don't know if you guys remember, but back in 1.0 when we were walking on a planet surface points of interest usually appeard near us with a "?" Icon. The spawn of buildings and monoliths was much higher and I remember constantly seen those appear near me.

Today we almost don't find monoliths appearing near us, I think the old system was better because we could encounter them randomly while walking on a planet.

I think if they bring the old system of spawn back it would be a good incentive to exploration, because the monoliths always have a very nice story on them.

On todays version we have to use those maps to find one, I think it breaks the exploration core of the game because we can't just find them while we are walking normally on a planet.

What do you guys think about it?

Cannot locate base computer in my home base [Bug]

Hi friends. Brand new player here, only about 2 weeks in.

I’ll get straight to it. I was rearranging things around my base tonight and accidentally deleted my base computer. When I went to build a new one, it said that I “cannot build a base computer within an existing base.” It made me think, “Okay, maybe I didn’t delete it and it’s around here somewhere.” After about 10 minutes of checking, I couldmt find it anywhere. I’ve warped away and rewarped to my base several times and closed out the game and reloaded it a few times, trying to see if it will reappear, but it never does. And every time I try to build a new one, it says the same thing. So now I have a base that, although still registers as my home base, does not have any base computer anywhere to be found.

Any suggestions?

All these QOL things and updates are great. You know what would really be awesome? Fixing VR support [Suggestion]

I love this game; been playing since day 1; but its VR support, especially on PC really needs some love. Why am i still not able to physically turn my body and have my forward vector move with it? I know its a PSVR limitation; but on PC, we do not have such limitations, we have full freedom to turn and move around our playspace. Also, ship controls in VR... man they are not enjoyable, and this comes from someone who plays a LOT of VTOL VR, so joysticks you grab with your hands are not new to me; please at the very least let us control our ships in VR with either our own hardware (like a HOTAS [my god that would be amazing]) or using the thumbsticks on our VR controllers.

I started this game a week ago, I've sunk in 60 hours into it already. But I really haven't built a base yet. I really want to build a good looking and functional base. But I can't decide where to start. First I was waiting for a planet, I found a planet like earth recently with the dildo fauna. I want to start one there, I'm just making a post to get some ideas or maybe examples.

I even considered building a base in freighter but, I've got a C class freighter, didn't know I could get a higher class. I saved the game. So I'm probably gonna change it when I have the money for it. I haven't started or found a way to start settlements yet. I'm not sure how much of a base can that become so.

AI Minotaur -- Help getting RID of the #$^# thing! [Discussion]

The new AI minotaur is driving me nuts. I WAS trying to build a base, before it frustrated me into quitting NMS

  1. It walks...nearly constantly...even when you are not moving, shaking the screen. It is not THAT big compared to sentinel walkers.

  2. it will randomly jump for no explainable reason...VIOLENTLY shaking the screen on landing before stomping off.

  3. It randomly walks up and stands on you...blocking mining/terrain manipulations and it stands there till you move or it decides on another random stomp around.

  4. It won't stay on the summoning Geopad.

  5. I went into the ocean to escape it...it thunders along underwater shaking the OCEAN view on the screen...if the oceans had physics, this sucker could cause Tsunamis!

And how do you dismiss the stupid thing once you summon it?

I admit it is a good idea, nice that it will draw Sentinel fire and often take out hostile animals before I even see them, BUT way too many irritations to want it in use full-time.

[SUGGESTION] HG please unify the 1st and 3rd person playstyles! [Suggestion]

Hey HG love all the work you put into NMS, but among the things I'd love to see improved are the inconsistencies between 1st and 3rd person camera modes, please unify the following:

ON FOOT:

1st person

-we still can't see our characters' bodies, the hands holding multitools are invisible, this is annoying, because if you play in VR you can at least see your hands in-game, with regular playthroughs we see nothing, I want to see my character use the levers inside the ship's cockpit and reload the multitool!

-if I remember correctly, we can't see our shadow properly in 1st person view

IN SHIP:

3rd person

-the HUD is dissapearing too often in 3rd person view of the ship and it should be reworked, there's a ton of info we miss if we don't use the 1st person view of the cockpit, which shows that info on the screen, for example the speed, or currenlty chosen weapon...

-there are still no heatwave effects when entering the atmosphere of a planet and in 3rd person view of the ship. In 1st person we can clearly see this visual effect so what gives?

IN EXOCRAFT/MECH:

1st person

-the cockpit view of the exocraft is very annoying as it seems to change the controls up. With the recent improvements to the Minotaur Exomech the new, improved controls work ONLY in 3rd person view, while the cockpit 1st person view retains the old control scheme, making it impossible to normally aim and not spin Minotaur's legs all the time and keep on aiming in one place.

I'm sure there are more little things here and there, both visual, and gameplay-related in both camera views, which are missing in the other or vice-versa.

Buzzing noise [Question]

No matter where I am, as long as I'm outside my ship I constantly hear a buzzing noise. I have no idea what's causing it, because it only happens on one of my saves, and it gets muffled when I open my inventory like an intentional in game sound. If anyone has any information about what it is or how to stop it I'd be incredibly grateful.

For the people that can't start the new questline: [Information]

I've seen many people having problems starting the new questline that came with the Sentinels update. Here's what I personally did to get it started: (i'm on mobile, so sorry in advance for formatting issues)

Official prerequisites: - Must have a settlement. - Must have completed the settlement tutorial.

My work-around: - Make sure there is no settlement decision/event going on (construction is fine). - Warp (as in your hyperdrive) to a different system and land on a planet to save. - If the previous step didn't fix it, warp to another system and try again. - You should receive a comm message that will bring you back to your settlement.

Hope this helps! :))

How I found my work-around: When I started up the game for the first time to play the new update, I spawned in my settlement and there were sentinels attacking. I took them out, and was expecting to get the questline, but I did not receive it. My settlers were still panicking, and the combat music was still playing. After trying many methods, I decided to try warping to a different system. Nothing happened. I tried landing on a planet in that different system and saving. Nothing. However, I did notice that my settlement had a building opportunity for me to review. I went ahead and cleared it by selecting a building, and tried warping again. Once I started flying around in the new system, I finally received the distress call. I am unsure if this was caused by me spawning in at my settlement and taking out the sentinels before I received the quest, but it was definitely odd.

Pirates not attacking me [Bug]

I have this issue for a while now, always when a pirate is going to attack me it appears a message that they didn't find anything valuable in my inventory so they just disappear/don't attack me.

I use a living ship and I have used the save editor to make the inventory bigger than normal living ships.

Does someone has this problem? I didn't test it in my other ships, maybe is because of the save editor?

Please, someone tell me I'm overlooking something and that this has, indeed, been fixed!

Does the new update/optimizations fix the hitching when leaving a planet's atmosphere on PC? [Question]

This is a longstanding bug that was not present in the original game but was introduced with later updates (well after NEXT I think). When you leave any planet's atmosphere and enter space, regardless of situation, graphical settings, gpu, the game will "hang" for 1-2 a solid seconds on PC. I don't know if it was an issue on consoles.

It's a pet peeve of mine, since this is always such a fun and satisfying aspect of the game. I'm wondering if the recent optimizations have addressed it? Thanks for any intel.

Is my settlement bugged? [Question]

Today I got the message for the new quest with the companion sentinel and went to my settlement, had a sentinel attack event. All good, went out to do other stuff. Went back to check my building because it was ready and a new sentinel attack.weird but ok. I then did other stuuf around settlement and kept getting attacks. Whenever I flew a little bit further then came back, the same attack with a few flying ones and then the flamethrowing guy. Is it normal? I dont really mind it, i get lots of new glass and upgrades from it, but it feels like an exploit honestly and I don't play that way. I will try tomorrow to finish the quest as I had no time today and see if it fixes it.

TLDR: Sentinel attack event every time I enter my settlement area.

No Man's Sky needs a free-explore mode [Suggestion]

Given the fact that half the community likes to start a new save every time there's a major update, I think the game needs a free-exploration mode. You can still choose creative, normal, survival, etc. but without the story or any tutorial missions. Once you've played the game enough it can be kind of tedious to go back and do all that stuff again, so being able to hop into a new save, spawn on a random planet, and explore freely without having to give a shit about Artemis would be a nice addition to the game. The only other thing I think the game might need for that is a better journey to the center. Hello Games should act on their original promise that things get harder and crazier as you near the center of the galaxy. Create a way to track players' progress toward the center, add rewards that can only be obtained by making the journey, add unique biomes that can only be found at certain distances from the center, things like that. That way there's still an overarching goal you can work toward that is more than just warping a thousand times til you get there.

Some points about NMS gameplay [Suggestion]

Hey everyone, apologies in advance for the lengthy post, I've included TLDR's for each relevant section as well as a general one. Without further delay, here goes: Introduction

Over the course of my experience of No Man's Sky (which goes without saying that I thoroughly enjoyed), I've always found myself wanting more depth of, what I consider, 3 core elements of survival games: A sense of danger: the way you felt when spending your first night out in Minecraft or The Forest, or stumbling onto a Black Forest in Valheim or the Corruption in Terraria; A necessity for progression: don't get me wrong, you can progress a lot in NMS, but do you need to? Most enemies can be killed by the original multi tool, and those that require more, aren't even necessary to take out; A need to build and expand: this is of course a result of the 2 reason above, since the only thing you might want to build a shelter for is because of weather (which is nullified depending on the planet you find yourself in).

This post mainly aims to address these 3 elements in a way that would not detract from the game's spirit. Sense of danger

As it stands, whenever you land on a planet and start exploring, you can be very confident in doing so, with no looming threat around the corner and nothing stalking you. Although this is certainly nice and relaxing, it can homogenize the planets and make exploration tedious. How would I address this? It would be with a combination of the following points: Creating danger zones in planets, where a certain hostile life-form is dominant and terratorial (or foreign and invasive, like the Biological Horrors); Creating engaging dungeon-like content, akin to derelict freighters, but with a lot more challenging foes, which could be easily incorporated to the Nexus, in order to have players complete it together if they wish; Having resourse rich planets with the caveat of being a...

After a very welcome update to combat and varying sentinal types I've realised I wouldn't say no to an RPG overhaul as well [Discussion]

Of course I realize everyone has their own preference as to how they play this game and I'm always happy with whatever HG wants to throw into the mix, but after this update I began to imagine being introduced to leveling up, skill trees, etc. I mean sure, you have C-S tier stuff but I feel like it would make for more rewarding gameplay if you could level up through missions that involve combat and exploration instead of just recieving currency and rare items, and the more you level up the more you unlock new items and skills for your exosuit, multitool and starship. Or at least the ability to craft such items and skills so crafting doesn't go away.

Also, being able to choose and stick with a faction between Gek, Vy'Keen and Korvax in a meaningful way. You start out with their respective attire and traveling to a system that your faction resides in becomes more beneficial in terms of trading, resources and guild missions.

QoL fixes I'd implement after 500+ hours played since Xbox Launch. [Suggestion]

Problem: Minotaur unusable in First Person View.

Solution: Fully rotate body separate from legs; reticule no longer has sticky/reset movement. Player controls cockpit look controls completely.

Problem: Space combat lacking.

Solution: Destroyable Freighters, Boardable Freighters, larger squadrons of ships, Pirate Fleets, and rewards for winning combat.

Problem: No humanoid combat.

Solution: Ground based Pirates, Pirate attacks, Pirate Bases, Hit List competitor missions, Gek/Vykeen/Korvax Firefights with each other or Pirates.

Problem: Multi Tools, Exocraft, and Starships have non-removeable Tech Modules.

Solution 1: Make item Recipe and removable.

Solution 2: Make Hardframe Parts for Minotaur have specific slots separate from main Inventory, as fully upgrading everything will leave you with 4 inventory slots.

Solution 3: Upgrade Exocraft Inventory capacity with Starship Inventory Slot Modules.

Problem: Minotaur loses player paint scheme when Hardframe upgrades applied.

Solution: Hardframe is paintable.

Problem: Sentinels can be defeated on a planet, making it hard to farm them without going to new planets.

Solution: Laylaps can activate Sentinel Emergency Signal with Pugneum so they spawn again, avoiding the timer.

Problem: Big space ships are cool, especially with friends.

Solution: Let us pilot Frigates, Freighters, and add Multi-player dropships.

Problem: Sentinel Combat is too easy with Shield recharge loot.

Solution 1: Remove or decrease drop chance substantially.

Solution 2: Increase Sentinel Damage.

Problem: No Man's Sky is fun.

Solution: Hello Games keeps updating.

Any way to stop catastrophic crashing? [Bug]

If I play the game too long without restarting my pc, my entire pc crashes and I have to reboot it. The audio fails and makes a strange brrrr sound, and the screen freezes. Every time this happens, the time it takes to crash goes down (Though the time it takes goes back up after waiting an absurd amount of time).

I've narrowed it down to either my gpu or cpu ( geforce rtx 2060 super and an 5ghz intel i9-9900k). I've ran a prime95 test at the behest of one of my discord friends, and everything came out fine. Nms is the only game this happens with. It doesn't matter what settings I use either.

I've tried all the usual stuff (Reinstall, Restart, Updating drivers, Deleting shader cache, etc.)

This game could use a quality of life update [Discussion]

The discoveries list is not the worst but I think it could be so much better.

1.A master list of the fauna, flora and minerals you’ve discovered. -This would allow you to search more easily for things you’ve found in the past

for example instead of searching for the planet you were on 20 systems ago you could look for the fauna in the master list you’ve created

I don’t think this would break the whole exploration aspect of it since all the info is already there, it could just be compiled a little differently for a quality of life update.

2.also don’t understand why bases that appear when you’re in the teleporter menu don’t show more info such as when you were last there or if there’s missions active there. If you have an economy scanner shouldn’t that also show up instead of having to go into the galaxy map to see that info.

3.I’ve been loving this game but there’s such small things that seem unfinished that make the game feel less streamlined. Things like base building, having problems with parts not automatically locking into place is so frustrating! Why can’t it just give me units for my ship? Why do I have to get scrap to sell in a terminal 5 feet away when giving me units would basically achieve the same thing? Why is there no hover mode in the starship? So I can just zoom around planets without accidentally throttling my ship into a branch. I can’t invite my boyfriend from ps5 to a group with me on Xbox for no reason(only when he rejoins my multiplayer server which kicks him out of whatever system he’s in to join mine) Why does the group randomly end for no reason?

Again, maybe there is easier ways to do all this and I just missed it. I want to reiterate that I’ve been loving the game but it has equally frustrated me with so many small things.

  2. We both cannot escape the sentinel, once 1 of us escape the sentinel the timer resets, even when we are super far away from the sentinel (happened on land).

  3. My friend group icon disappears while flying in space after a certain distance, the icon only comes back when he lands on a planet (not always).

  4. My friend sees different NPC starship stats from what I see, (all stats like price cost, class tier, damage etc) Only thing in common is the starship class (Fighter, Hauler, etc).

  5. My friend sees the resources in different locations from where I see them, this also affected NPC positions specially on space stations.

  6. Not relatable to co-op, but when I use my base portal to travel to the space station in the CURRENT System, it glitches out and spawns me in the space, left to die.

Funny Things with Companion Drone [Discussion]

So, PS4 received the update later than everyone else, but I did have fun trying out the new features. My little drone that I got during the new storyline was adorable, but had some funny moments.

When I first summoned him, he just wanted to scale the cliffside on one side of my settlement. I had to deactivate him to progress the storyline. There was also another funny moment where I was about to board my ship and he flew right into my ship.

Have you guys had any funny moments with your drone companion?

New player, question about shared content [Question]

I started playing the game with my girlfriend and I'm curious about how dialect learning is shared between players. It seems like it's first-come first-serve in terms of meeting and learning words from aliens in space stations, which seems really backwards to me.

My No Man's Sky Wishlist! [Suggestion]

I value updates depending on how many new opportunities it gives to live out sci-fi fantasies so you'll notice most of my wishlist revolves around that, enjoy! Vehicles Tractor Beam module for Ships to collect some resources inside of your ship Variation in Alien Ships(like alien multi-tools) More Land-based Vehicles like speeder bikes Bigger Ships intended for multiple passengers, explorable interior, and allowing for manually controlled turrets Battleships for all-out space combat Ship Customization, now I don’t know the best way to handle this, but I definitely think we need this. My idea for how this would work is that every ship is made out of a dozen or so ship parts and there are nearly infinite versions of those ship parts. You can disassemble your ship to sell certain pieces or mix and match them with other ship parts to make a whole new ship. You’ll still need to explore to find the ship parts you want, but there’s a little bit more customization to it Procedural Freighter Interiors, they get boring quick Boats for traveling on the surface of the water Combat Bipedal Humanoid Robots as sentinel enemies and/or NPCs Melee Weapons to allow for a different combat playstyle like Creature Traps if you want to capture a dangerous creature for SCARING purposes or something Smarter, Stronger, Predators to battle, right now they are merely a nuisance, I want some truly scary battles like mini-bosses Settlement Defenses, basically just defenses in general such as spiked walls and turrets Landmines and/or Explosives detonated on command as multi-tool extensions or as sentinel weapons Dashing or Dodging to add an extra layer to combat and traversal Exploration Time Capsules for other players to discover, like Subnautica Procedural Cities found in developed star systems Simple Planetary Biomes for some planets that just slightly alter colors, weather, creature spawning, and landscape...

Settlement bugged / settlers in fear [Bug]

I'm trying to figure out how to fix a settlement bug I'm having. I have a settlement on a planet that I like (and also have a nice base on). However, the settlers are always in a constant state of running away / hiding. There is nothing close by attacking. The closest sentinel is around 400m away on the other side of a mountain. I figured maybe the game randomly positioned the settlement too close to the spawn. No amount of killing sentinels or deactivating them on the planet has stopped the settlers from running around in fear.

I've re logged, reloaded, gave up for a while did other things, came back, the problem persists. Eventually I decided to give up on the settlement and just find a new one. Bought a chart, found a new settlement, and exact same problem in the new settlement. Is anyone experienced this at all?

By the way, I have completed the quest line for the companion sentinel. I did this after & while this problem was occurring. I do not know if this bug existed before this recent patch as I didn't start a settlement until this patch came out (but I had the questline for a settlement already - just didn't do it).

Really hope someone can help me figure this one out.

The frieghters are bigger than you think. [Information]

The frieghters are big, but how big exactly? Turns out quite a lot. ~20k units. I have a mid-sized freighter, and then decided to fly my starship along it's length. Flew out without pulse engine to make it accurate.

The base speed of my starship with only pressing forward button is 1190u/s. It took me on average 16-17 seconds to fly along the freighter's length. Combining it, the length comes out to be around 20k units.

Now, this is speculative, but considering 1 unit to be 1 metre from our perspective (since height of default character is around 1.8u, using analysis visor), the freighter comes around 20 kilometres in 'real' life. Compare the Executor - the big Darth Vader's star destroyer from Star Wars, that was 19 kilometres. So the freighter's are in that range at the very least.

Makes me wonder what the fleet ships are like, maybe the standard issue star destroyer size.

(TBH, it is most likely a couple of ku more, since the ship boosted speed in between. I tried to keep it in control, but there was some error due to it nonetheless)

Any input or correction welcome ☺️

Weird issue with the sentinel update [Question]

Was wondering if anybody else is having this issue? I booted up NMS when the update went live but I'm on PS4 and didn't realize our update lagged behind. My current settlement was under attack from sentinels and I destroyed them all. With no interesting/update lot dropping. After the update actually launched I went to the space station and got all the new upgrades. However I learned that the new quest to aquire the sentinel drone companion and the new parts for the mech is tied into a questline revolving around saving your settlement from a drone attack. Maybe I missed something and that isn't the case but I'm kind of at a loss here. Will I have another chance to pick up the quest? Or is it a random encounter I'll have to wait to start. The problem being that my settlement is on a planet with no sentinels.

Thanks for any info, already opened a ticket with hello games but I haven't heard anything back yet

AMD FSR or just Resolution Scaling? [Question]

So a friend of mine said to me that they added FSR to the game and since I couldn't run the game smoothly before, I got really excited and downloaded the game again.

But after taking a look at the settings, I couldn't find an option called FSR or etc. There was only Resolution scaling. And this kinda made me sad since if you lower the resolution scaling even a bit, the game starts to look really bad but with FSR, there would not have been much loss.

So will they actually add FSR, or are we stuck with just reso scaling?

Thanks for answering.

Title says it all. You can change the color of your upgraded minotaur, but the colors affect just one part on top of this mech, this spinny-thing, that was probably a leftover from the old design.

I would love to change the color of this mech tho ... Because my character is black/white, I have a exotic rifle in black/white, my exotic ship is black/white and even my S-Class Capital Freighter is black/white ... With all my exocrafts also in this color scheme I would love to change the colors of the new exomech-friend to the same color scheme to have everything living in unity and peace.

Base in settlement and how to move it after overseer arrived ? [Question]

I started the game one week ago and I have already 24 hours on it. I literally i'm addicted !

But I found a settlement early and decided to build my base here for easy access to the settlement's missions. I could not put a computer there so I put it 200u away. Build a dummy item every 50u to the settlement so I could build inside the restricted zone.

It was working great but yesterday I had no access to all the buildings in my W menu. If I get closer to the computer it works; but if i select an object, move back to my actual base I cannot put it down because "too far away from base".

so first; is it the sentinel update that changed stuff; was this an issue before ? Can I workaround that ?

​

and second, if I cannot workaround that, if I delete my base to move. Will I have to recruit a new overseer ?

Help with ship trading troubles [Question]

Hello, I may have royally messed up. So, I was playing the new update and after I’d gotten a decent way through it, I found a wrecked ship at my base. I figured I’d add it to my fleet so I made sure my current ship (Ship 1) only had it’s tech in it and no proper inventory. I switched ships to the crashed ship (C Ship), and Ship 1 was still there but I couldn’t get back into it, so I called another one of mine down to see what would happen and then I just had three ships sitting there. I then closed and game for awhile hoping it’d sort itself out, but when I returned, Ship 1 had vanished, and I couldn’t summon it either. I checked my freighter and it was nowhere to be found. By the time I thought of going to my previous save, the auto save had already been written over. And my last manual save was from October. Is there any possible way I could get Ship 1 back?

Does Anyone Know Of A Fix For The "Teleport To Death Above Space Station" Issue? [Question]

So I've been experiencing this in quite a few teleports to various stations. It happens from base to station, but station to base is fine. Is there a way to get safely back into the station? I'm unable to summon my ship or anything. As currently I'm forced to have to reload a save without ever knowing if I'll be impacted or not, so it seems at this point I need to rely on manually flying to a station losing out on the convenience of a teleport.

Sorry any english errors, not my native language.

-> Now, I constructed a real good base on PS5 (for me at least - it's my 1st time investing on base building) in a planet that I discovered 3 years ago. But, I want visit this base on my PSVR headset. So, I uploaded the base to the servers and created a new PS4 save normal mode, got the gliphs to use portals.

-> When I go to the exact place of my base (it's show that I discovered the planet 3 years ago), the base it's not there.

-> Some Obs: Already uploaded the base several times. I'm trying this since last week with no sucess. Both saves are normal mode.

I'm doing something wrong? Or it's not possible to visit my PS5 base on PS4 and I need to give it up?

Where do I go from here? [Discussion]

I beat the main story a little while ago, just before the companions update. I started building a new base and exploring new planets, and then I realized I have no idea where to go from here. I absolutely love No Man’s Sky but I got bored NOT because there was nothing to do, but because I was overwhelmed by just how much there was to do. Are there any recommendations for how to get back into this game? Because it’s genuinely such a beautiful experience and I wanna play more but I don’t even know where to begin post main story.

My grave is not showing up [Question]

I was doing the new sentinel drone quest after the update. What happened was, I teleported to my base from the space station and died. I can see the grave marker in my HUD but it's not showing up in the environment. I tried to locate it by flying off the planet, tagging it (this was the only way I could tag it), and coming back, but still nothing is showing up in the spot. I dismantled most of my base in that area, nothing. Is there anything I can do about it?

Patch Notes for patch 3.81(fixes for reported issues, made after the Sentinel update) [Information]

Fixed an issue that could cause freighter bases to fail to load after warping in a freighter.

Fixed an issue that caused an empty copy of the player’s freighter to spawn in a system after warping.

Fixed an issue that could prevent building within a player freighter.

Fixed an issue that caused inappropriate technologies to occasionally be found in the inventory of newly purchased freighters.

Fixed an issue that could cause all Multi-Tools to become Royal Multi-Tools after reloading a save with a Royal Multi-Tool equipped. Pre-existing Multi-Tools have been completely restored to their correct appearance. Unfortunately, some newly acquired Royal Multi-Tools may have changed appearance.

Fixed an issue that changed the Multi-Tools offered in shops and space stations. Weapon caches at the same coordinates will now offer the same tools as before 3.80.

Fixed an issue that caused some saved Multi-Tools to change appearance.

Adjusted the autoaim strength of the Blaze Javelin, to make pad aiming behave more consistently.

The Blaze Javelin now does a degree of piercing damage to armoured Sentinels, so that damage is done to the drone as well as the armour plating if the plating is destroyed in one shot.

Slightly reduced the effect of gravity on Pulse Spitter projectiles.

Slightly increased the base damage of the Pulse Spitter.

Adjusted the fire rate of Sentinel drones, so that recently shot drones will attempt to retaliate more aggressively.

Sentinel drones now attempt to keep further away from the Minotaur when in combat.

Fixed an issue that could cause Sentinels to respawn in a loop while fighting inside a settlement when using PlayStation VR.

Fixed a number of issues where Sentinels would fail to spawn around settlements.

Game crash after new update [Bug]

Hi everyone!

So today I decided to start the new mission for the sentinel companion, but every time I enter the anomaly after defeating the sentinels my game crashes. I have no idea what could be causing it, but here's what happens: 1) Game freezes, sounds keep playing 2) Screen turns black, the sounds become heavily distorted after about 8 seconds 3) I get a message from Radeon Software that there's been a driver time out 4) Either the game stays up frozen and I can close it with the task manager, or my whole system first freezes and then gives me a BSOD.

I've already updated my driver's and restarted, and I'm on Windows 10.

If anybody knows what I could do to fix this, help would be very appreciated

Water features update when? [Suggestion]

The new sentinel update is awesome, this game is continuously amazing me. One thing that I have noticed though across my exploration of the cosmos is that there are no waterfalls or high mountain lakes or rivers. I know nothing about game design so maybe this is just something that would be way more difficult than I could possibly imagine, but I think it would add so much too the game to have water features like that. I mainly play in VR, so it's also sometimes hard to tell when my head is underwater as opposed to when it isn't because there isn't a meniscus on the bodies of water in the game. I've always heard water stuff in games is super hard to do though so maybe I'm asking to much, I don't know

Exosuit shield upgrades automatically downgraded after updating to 3.81.....WTH?!?! 😡😡😡😡 [Question]

So I've been playing this game for almost a year now and it took me MONTHS to find S-class and X-Class (black market) shield upgrades that have 94% shield strength and 33% core health. I have 3 shield upgrades in my General section in my exosuit and 3 in my Technology section, so a total of 6. After the Sentinel update (3.80), I noticed that you can add additional shield upgrades to your current layout already without it getting overloaded (3 was the max). In other words, you can now have 4 shield upgrades instead of having 3 in one of the sections of your exosuit (via the Forbidden Exosuit Module, if you get the right stats for it of course). So now that I've updated to patch 3.81, I noticed ALL my shield upgrades have been modified to either 12, 13, 33, or 34% shield strength but core health remained the same. But before I updated to 3.81, all my shield strengths on each upgrade were at 94%. So my question to anybody that can answer this, did Hello Games do this intentionally because of the Sentinel update to balance things out or is this a bug? I'm pretty upset that I wasn't warned about this before updating to 3.81. No wonder I almost died after I temporarily disabled sentinels on an Aggressive planet. But if this is the case....this is total B.S. I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS!!

New Player Permadeath log 2022-0217 [Discussion]

After successfully fixing my star ship and leaving satans b-hole planet I went to the stars looking for answers. After floating for a few moments I was hailed by my nemesis. Johnny Depp. I pleaded with mr depp “please sir. Don’t take me cobalt.” Johnny depp didn’t care for he was a pirate and I was his booty. After a confusing and way to long of a fight I managed to escape towards the space station. The jackass running the station forgot to activate the tractor beam and I slammed in the side of the station at 5000000 miles and hour. Now my lifeless body drifts through space. Permadeath is fun?

More Multi-tool Slots [Discussion]

With the new update that came out this week, we got more weapons added to the multi-tool. However, we can still have a maximum of 24 slots on a single multi-tool. This has allowed me to improvise on my multi-tool. One of my multi-tools that I got from a pillar yesterday (not the royal one), that is also S-class, is my combat based multitool. While my other multi-tool, which is the royal one I found yesterday will be my mining/base building based multi-tool.

Would it be nice to increase the multi-tool slots to where you have one multi-tool have everything you need for just for one, so that you have to switch multi-tools based on your situation? What would the number be increased to? 30? Something more higher?

About aiming planets.... [Discussion]

I see that I must be more clear. Here you have a new gif.

Aiming slowly still does not work properly. The previous one i just recorded faster. And yes I'm pointing straight on the planet. Aiming above planets works more times.

I just wanna show that in 3rd person aiming does not work properly, so changing to 1st person mode is not the option I want to use. Also what's the point of having a nice ship when you can't see him flying.

Pulse drive to every planet takes time. I know that it can be more "immersive", but doing this 1000 times is just annoying. Imagine youre searching for a specific planet. You travel through dozens of systems. Pulse driving to every planet just to scan them takes so much time. Better planet aiming would be a quality of life change.

When there is 2 planets near to each other, there is no way you can scan them both from distance. Everytime you can scan only one.

I'm on the xbox one x and I've been trying to download the new sentinel update for the past two days with no success. The first time it started updating it almost reached the end but failed and after a couple of tries it still won't update.

Psvr through ps5 [Question]

If ur playing on psvr through ps5, have you noticed mixed results? When I popped it in the other day for the first time, I felt like it must be something like what pcvr users feel. So crisp, clear, & the pop-in was few & far between, instead of all over the place. Playing it today though feels different, almost like the few hours I've put on it so far have filled up a cache or something & now it's struggling in places. Do certain planet types affect pop-in? I am on a very basic, bland planet with not a lot going on at all (like a grey desertish place) & I don't even have moon boots yet & the pop-in on flora seems abundant, although the flora itself is not. And I noticed in space, specifically when I pulse, the dashboard gets as fuzzy as it used to on the base ps4.

Are save files local or in a cloud for Steam players? [Question]

So, my gaming computer (though brand new) may have already broke. It will no longer read HDMI cables, thus not allowing me to connect any monitor.

I'm sure if anything, the HDMI port needs to be repaired but if things blow up and my pc requires a full system reset, will my save file be ok?

As stated in the topic, I play via steam.

Some games I play, such as Stardew Valley, your save files are all saved via the steam cloud, I've played on multiple computers and every save file I've ever created is still there.

Other games I've played which also have save files are saved locally, such as Don't Starve.

So my question is, will my save file be saved via steam or will I lose it if my pc needs a full reset?

I know there's way to save game files but I'm truthfully too stupid to figure out how to do that.

Some thoughts on the shield-strength "fix" part of today's update from a low-skills gamer [Information]

Method: Logged in, checked the stats of all my non-sentinel shield modules. They all used to be 89%. Now one was 34, some dropped to 30, others dropped to 20. First stop: a space station that sells S-class modules. Save/reload and burn some nanites.

Current loadout: 34/34/34 (tech, S), 34/34/33 (general, S), 34/31/25 (general, sentinel). 34 appears to be the new maximum; in ~60 modules I didn't find anything stronger than that. Tested in Normal mode.

Wiped out three planets' worth; one aggressive, one high frequency, one calm. Observations: Armoreds are about the same. Quads hurt. Hardframes are about the same as quads, but the flamethrower isn't bad. Walkers are about as bad as the other two.

Tactics changes: You can't just stand around and bring the pain any more, you have to keep moving. Sentinels have very poor predictive abilities. Prioritize healers, then summoners, then quads. Armored you can leave for last if you want and don't mind jumping out of holes. Oddly enough, in three planets' worth of fighting, not a single one put up a shield at any point. Might be bugged.

Still able to kill walkers and hardframes with a mining laser. Shield bar never went below half, but I was very aggressive about picking up canisters in the field--I usually do the cleanup after the battle.

Verdict: A little tougher, and some mild changes to your tactics are a good idea, but in the main it isn't markedly more difficult than it used to be, even with the 70%-on-paper shield-strength loss.

Hope that helps someone.

i missed my settlement being attacked [Bug]

so when i finally got the update my computer was also dealing with audio drivers crashing games i was playing, NMS being one of them. Plus i spawned directly into my settlement and saw the report it was under attack but couldnt find the sentinels destroying it. Im just now seeing some of the videos on the sentinel mission where you can build your own and it starts with an attack on your settlement. but since that "happened" to me already and i couldnt loot any of the bodies, does that mean im screwed out of starting the mission?

Idea [Suggestion]

Honestly Hello Games should do a big DlC for No Man's Sky and we should pay at least 30$ for it.. they honestly deserve it, they deserve to get recognition for such a hard and amazing job and what better recognition than getting some bucks for all of what they've done.. 30 bucks for most people ( if not all ) is nothing is two meals at McDonalds so yeah i think getting some money for some content at least once should be great for them they deserve it.. ( just look qt EA and Activision they have ripped us players off for quite a lot of time and when they release a shitty game they just abandon them.)

Science Research Bug [Bug]

So it seems I've hit a well known bug where my Science Research quest to hire a overseer is bugged (I completed the Construction one). The marker takes me to a system I've been too before but of course there's no scientist for hire there. I have the quest selected (There's two of them but I have the one that specifically is called "Scientific Research") and at this point I've been to over well over 15 Korvax systems with no luck. I just keep getting guys (The Korvax in the room with other Overseers) who give me a puzzle and are no different from any of the wandering NPCs (They have the generic dialect, speak their language, and other generic stuff). Is it literally just keep jumping until I get lucky? Is there a proper solution? It sucks cause this is completely halting the progress I want to make towards base building and it seems like this has been around for a while now. I really don't want to have to start over. Any help is appreciated cause I really want to get back into this game!

Constantly evolving. Best £39.99 I've ever spent [Discussion]

I bought it within a week of release.

Anyone else remember the huge towering blocks of gold that you could mine? Make a hole then hop inside to finish off from the bottom up.

Desperately trying to get a level 3 atlas pass so you could go in the secret door behind the reception desk in the space station...

I've got 230 hours on that first save. Sporadically playing.

I've gone months sometimes. But every single time I fire it up again it's like a completely different game.

Honestly the best money I've ever spent on a game. And echoing an earlier post I read, I wouldn't mind a few microtransactions, or paid dlc, these guys deserve it.

Brb, taking my minotaur for a jog round the settlement.

Massive drop in VR performance post latest update [Question]

I have so far only played this game in VR mode (150 hours) and the game has never been well optimised for VR. Despite having a decent rig with geoforce rtx 3070, i7, 16GB ram and able to play other not-greatly optimised vr games like heavily modded skyrim VR on high settings without a problem, I have always had to play NMS VR on the lowest settings and even then my game will occasionally crash if I use my jetpack in my settlement.

Now with the latest update, the game is so stuttery and slow as to be almost unplayable in VR, with the same settings I had when I last played a few days ago. I have tried the new fidelity resolution options, which on all possible settings makes the game terribly blurry in VR, and doesn't improve performance more than what I was experiencing before the update.

I note in the bug report thread some one else is having this problem. Have any other VR users been affected?

What does a good sentinel killing multi tool look like? [Question]

Only really used my multi tool for scanning, mining and terrain use. Killed lots of sentinels but using the mining tool. Never managed to kill a walker without dying. I've got the reflexes of a sleeping sloth so standing in one place and mining them to death has been the go-to. What weapons should I install, how do shields work. Pics of a well thought out multi tool would be great, even if it's in a new post.

Interesting clues and hints towards the next update and the future of No Mans Sky???? [Discussion]

Ive recently had a few observations, looking at the past few NMS updates, and the tech behind them. Could it be possible clues towards the future of NMS? Or am I crazy and just over analyzing? This is not speculation for the next updates, but rather just me observing how all the updates link together.

Start with companions. It introduced the pets we all love, but more importantly the smarter Ai tech that makes the pet work.

Prisms drops. Now am improved Ai tech that includes flying creatures

Frontiers. The introduction to improved combat tech, and Procedural building tech. Also now Ai tech, with a companion that will now fight for you, the horror.

Emergence. New flying pet, and now even more combat.

Sentinel. Way more improved combat, and now a companion walker that fights and shoots for you.

I see a trend here. It started with companions when the Ai tech was introduced, and each subsequent update improved upon that Ai that was built foe that tech. Same with the new combat tech. It started something small and they are continually building that tech now each new update.

To me they are building towards something much bigger. Are they building Ai tech towards a goal of more sophisticated enemies? And the gun tech to attack them?

And then think of the procedural building tech. Why would you develop such tech to JUST use it for the settlements? Why not use that tech for something else as well and continue to build that tech just like the Ai and combat?

I think maybe the end goal could be to fuse it all together, maybe some procedural dungeons of some sort.

Anyone have any guesses? I just see a trend in the building of all the tech, and it just seems to make sense and to be the logical progression given how all the updates are fusing together and build upon all the new features.

Thanks for...

Is there any way to mark the Artemis Story as complete starting from a new game? [Question]

I'm getting back into NMS and unfortunately I need to start a new game. Now I don't mind starting over from scratch but the story... I have gone through the story SO MANY TIMES and I really don't want to do it again. I am well aware the story is 100% optional but seeing it incomplete on my mission log is going to drive me crazy. Is there any way I can use a save editor to mark the mission as complete or is there a mod available that has the story already completed?

Cannot access the new Sentinel update. [Question]

I'm not sure where else to ask this question. Obviously the update is out, everyone is playing it, I see YouTube videos about it every day, but my Steam client absolutely refuses to acknowledge that the update exists. Whenever I launch the game and try to start a new expedition, it still has the little banner that says "Expedition Complete" or whatever and I can't start a new one.

​

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game, tried changing settings to update whenever I launch the game, I've restarted my computer, I've restarted Steam, I've done literally everything I can think of. Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to manually download this patch from somewhere?

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Save stranded life form is annoying [Discussion]

Does anybody else think that the save stranded life form mission from the nexus has become just bonkers difficult? The rng of getting a good module is insane, I spent nearly an hour digging up corrupted modules and eventually run out of playing time (because need to do other stuff) and had to just abandon the mission.

​

This sucks because it was the weekend event and I wanted the big quicksilver payout. Is there any way to do this properly so it's not a huge waste of time?

Not sure if this post is allowed, but I need help with choosing something. [Question]

I'm not able to afford a gaming PC, I own a MacBook and a PS5. I live with my mom and sister at the moment as I haven't graduated high school yet this year. I own No Man's Sky on PS5.

I have a Steam save of No Man's Sky I play on NVIDIA GeForce Now (originally bought when I had a gaming laptop that could kinda run it), which I have sunk a lot of hours into and am proud of.

The issue is, the wait times of NVIDIA GeForce Now make things a bit annoying, and I want to subscribe, but that will be added onto the costs of my Playstation Plus subscription already.

Should I restart on my Playstation save file, or just suck it up and subscribe to the streaming service? The start feels really time consuming, though part of me really wants to play No Man's Sky on Playstation, but I don't feel as motivated.

Im helping my wife do the new missions for the new walker buddy. Everything was going good until she had to kill the elite walker for the pristine walker brain. She killed it with her starship, didnt get the item and now her mission is bugged/freaking out.We've caused enuff trouble to get every sentinel in the star system after us (big/little walkers included), she jumped to different star systems, even closed and reloaded nms. She can get a normal walker brain but not the one she needs for the mission. Also, she cant choose another mission to do or anything. Can anybody out there help us out?

Strategy to find royal multitools? [Question]

Is there any? Haha. Please direct me to previous threads if this has already been asked, sorry.

It's completely random, right? It doesn't matter which type of system, economy, planet, etc? How many sentinel towers did you visit before you saw a royal class multitool? I think I'm somewhere in the 5-8 range and I haven't seen one yet. That's not surprising if they're similar rarity to the royal class ships (~1%?)

Quickest method is just disabling the sentinels to skip fights and visiting as many towers as possible, right?

Teleporter teleporting outside base. [Bug]

Hey people,

Recently I started having issues with my teleporters. Each time I teleport to a base, my character doesn't spawn next to the base teleporter, but some distance away. This is not a big deal, considering most of my bases are simple buildings to house mineral extractors and stuff like that, but my main base has some underground building made, and I'm spawning under it, with no way of getting inside it but to delete one floot tile, get inside, and build that floor tile again.

Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks!
