NMS Performance monitoring and smoother gameplay [Discussion]

So I recently upgraded to a RTX 3050 graphics card, and then shortly afterwards the new Sentinal patch came out for NMS, thought it was perfect timing so I decided to check things out.

Not sure if it is just me, but performance took a huge dive since I remember. Using the same settings, just updated drivers, things don't run any smoother than before, and they should. I setup some performance monitoring on my PC to see how the CPU and GPU load is acting while gaming. When playing WoT, with everything pretty much maxed, GPU is quite high load, about 75% and CPU is low, which is how I would expect it.

In NMS, it is 100% the opposite. GPU load sticks at around 35%, while CPU is maxed out in the high 90% usage pretty much all the time the game is running.

I don't recall what it was like with my older video card, but I imagine it was pretty much the same.

What is going on here? the graphics card should be doing most of the heavy lifting aside from the main game client stuff, but it almost seems the CPU is doing everything, and the GPU is sitting idle.

Is one more important: Core Health vs. Shield Strength? [Question]

So, I'm enjoying all the new exosuit upgrades we can obtain from destroying sentinels. But we can only keep six of them total on your exosuit (3 in general inventory, 3 in tech slots). Comparing the different upgrades, I find myself wondering what is more important: core health or shield strength?

I already have nine health squares as part of my core health. As I understand it, my core health only takes damage once my shields have been depleted. That rarely happens to me now. And when it does occasionally happen in battle, it seems like each of the shield squares can get depleted rather quickly. This leads me to believe that I should prioritize shield strength over core health if I have to choose between the two, especially given that I already have nine health squares.

Does this seem correct or am I missing something?

About those nerfed Defense System (shield) mods... [Discussion]

I've seen people talking about how all our older upgrades weren't supposed to go up to ~90% shield strength bonus in the first place. I find that hard to accept, since that has been the range at least since late 2018. Fandom's No Man's Sky wiki has an image of a NEXT-era S-class (see gallery) with a bonus of 85%, and the last NEXT patch was 1.65 on October 19, 2018. That's over three years for the playerbase to acclimatize to the 'bug'. It would have been nice if such a significant reduction in shield strength had been more effectively communicated than just another bullet point halfway down the patch notes. On a personal note, having four of my six X-class modules go from 93 or 94% to only 13% (equivalent to a new C-class) after installing many, many modules really feels like salt in the wound.

Sentinel Walkers are stupid now? [Bug]

I’ve fought 3 of them so far since the update, and once you destroy the armor on even a single leg, they spew a bunch of bombs and then aimlessly stomp around without attacking you. The inti beam attack that they are supposed to do until you take out all of their armor only goes on for a few seconds I. The beginning. They no longer shoot blasters at you once their armor is destroyed. Just stand there and get killed, im hoping it’s a glitch.

Is there any way to advance in the game without engaging in the base building systems? [Question]

I started playing the game at launch and I fell in love with exploring the procedural worlds. However, it feels like a lot of the features that have been added over the years have been geared towards a playstyle of settling down on a planet and engaging with the online community. Is there any way to get to late game without setting up on a planet? I would like to get an S tier capital ship and a proper fleet eventually. I would like to have a setup that makes interstellar travel easy and cuts down on inventory Tetris.

Anyone else think it would be nice if they increased the ship inventory limit, like they just did for the multitools? [Discussion]

I wish that they could either let you own more freighters, create new freighters focused on ship storage rather than inventory space that one can find/obtain, allow an upgrade to existing freighters increasing the ship landing/storage ports similar to the current inventory modifications.

Sentinel Hives work like multitool cabinets [Information]

I figured this out today, and I am not sure if this is common knowledge.

This means each planet + space has its own royal. You just need to place a beacon at the hive, then fly to another planet and autosave, load, then fly back.

I have noticed that when you fly to a new system and use a hive map, it just spawns regular multitools. I believe this is a bug.

I’ve been playing since Beyond and I’ve always loved the freedom this game gives you. However, the time constraints added with the Expeditions update is a bit of a turn off for me. I like playing on my main save when I have time to play. I just can’t bring myself to invest time into a save that I’ll never use again after the expedition is over. I’d rather spend a few hours a week hunting ships/multitools, collecting resources, or base building.

Are these "dream planets" new? [Question]

Sorry if vague, or if this is known but incredibly rare. I stumbled across a planet a few hours ago called lacrine (never seen full lowercase either but probably bias) that actually made me think my GPU was dying. Hit atmo and colors swap, the planet has *nearly every grass color divided and mixed, random grayscale, light position can completely flip color pallet (sentinel tower was blue in ship, red when out) its hard to describe. This was definitely not a standard mixed exotic - 1k hours spent planet hopping, never seen anything at all like this before. Its sort of like an all in one with light chromatic aberration. Like a fever dream visualized I guess. Flips from day to night in an instant, stuff like that. I'm running a few of Lo2Ks mods that still work - though none of them produce this effect anywhere else.

Pretty creepy place, although I'm pretty sure my mind is connecting dots where there are none, unless its related to the new mech quest thing. I dug/flew around for a good two hours and found nothing of note.

Sentinels update ; land on a planet marked "High Sentinel Activity", - absolutely devoid of sentinels. The same for other planets. We used to be plagued by sentinels, they'd pop out of the ground if you so much as sniffed at a resource.

2 different Ai pilots for Minotaur? [Question]

Just a quick question. So you can buy an upgrade for your minotaur that gives you the capabilities for AI. But during the quest line "A Trace of Metal" you will get a mod to build for your minotaur called "Sentinel Hardframe Body", which is..... An AI pilot mod.....😠.

They both do the exact same thing. Oddly, they stack together because if you place them side by side you will see the border light up indicating they stack and getting some kind of bonus...

Can some one tell me what the difference is, if any in the two, and what bonus world I be getting if I have them both hooked with the border lit up when their attached.

Oddly enough the sentinel right arm doesn't seem to get any bonuses with anything?!? ( No colored border when you equip itt next to any other mod). Is there something you can install to get a bonus with that mod? I would have thought equipping it next to the cannon, which it states in the description as working with, would give it a bonus but it does not...

So, I’ve been stuck for a few days now trying to figure out how to restart this leg of the trace of metal plotline.

For some reason its asking me to kill 7 sentinels and im only being spawned 5 or 6 each time i try to reset it by walking away from the area.

Ive looked on youtube tutorials to beating the mission and it seems those people are only asked to kill 5 sentinels.

I also uninstalled the autopilot ai from my minotaur and hes still doing autopilot and killing off the sentinels so i cant tell if theres a summoning sentinel that summons more.

Solutions ive tried:

Warping away, doing other missions and restarting it.

Completely exiting the game on another mission, restarting the game and selecting the mission again.

Exiting the mission area to retrigger sentinel spawns

Weekend rescue mission — Component signature corrupted [Question]

I recently started the game, and I did this weekend mission on the anomaly to rescue a stranded lifeform. I had to scan for the buried treasures and then do something with the reward. However, after getting a treasure, I would analyze the broken piece thing, and it would zoom out and say "component signature corrupted - terminal not found."

I figured it might be a chance thing, but after doing so for ~20 treasures, I never found a working one. And even worse, when trying to scan, it would tell me the closest buried treasure was too far away to even give me an estimate now.

I gave up on the mission, but was I doing something wrong? Or is it just horrible luck?

Rescue Stranded Alien Weekend Mission [Question]

I joined the rescue mission with two other players and immediately noted the location service to direct me to the next buried technology module was not working. No problem, just use the Suvey Device.

I found a module that was not corrupted and it directed me to a terminal and the three of us met there in short order.

Wave after wave of Sentinals attacked us and we kept taking them out. Ultimately, a walker showed up and we took it out as well.

I expected that to be the end but the Sentinals never stopped spawning and thus the Terminal never allowed me to connect and unlock the technology so I could return to the stranded alien.

It just seemed so pointless that I quit the game. I feel bad for the two other players, but I was just getting really frustrated.

Sentinel Weapons Shards only affect boltcasters? [Question]

So I've spent a bunch of time farming sentinels and getting a bunch of shards from the glass dropped.

I've tested around 30-40 Sentinel Weapon Shards, and every single one of them affected the boltcaster only.

As this was applied to a fresh multi-tool with just a mining beam and boltcaster, I wondered if it was all about the base weapon.

So I scrapped the boltcaster so I only had mining beam and scatter blaster, then used three of the shards - not one of them for the scatter blaster.

Also, as with any other modules, three's the max.

So, I guess do with that what you will. Happy Saturday, everyone. 👍🏻

couple noob questions, what are the floating sentinel drone things, what is the lore behind them, and why do they "investigate" me for harvesting plants?

How do i unlock new structures and decorations to build besides "timber wall" and such?

how do i get a new ship?

do planets have moons that you can land on?

how do i do the system map thing? i press M in my ship and it does nothing

and finally, how long does it usually take of flying in hyper space to find other planets? if you just keep going in any direction you'll usually find planets right

[SPOILER] Reset, crashed, then...warped home? [Question]

So I reset the sim, chose a "halcyon" galaxy, crashed in the new galaxy, repaired my ship, then jumped to orbit. (I didn't actually check that I was in a new galaxy, so maybe I'm missing something?)

Then I got an urgent message about my settlement being attacked by sentinels. I wasn't really thinking, so I called my freighter and used the onboard portal to warp to my settlement and put down the incursion.

Then I realized I was back in Euclid.

What happened? Did I miss something?

Structure Color Palette Is Wrong [Question]

Hi guys! So I’ve encountered this issue with my mate while building our base. For some reason I can’t select the normal color pallet anymore, instead I’m only getting these weird options (Setfiberglass_basic#)? If my friend goes away to his other base the normal colors are back. But as soon as we try back at our base here, this weird fiberglass color set shows up?!! Any solutions or ideas would be much appreciated!!

Undiscovered Systems :: Should I care? [Question]

I tried to google some answers on this, but so far what I understand is that a truly undiscovered system (with only sentinels, no other intelligent species, and no space station) offers only you naming rights for the system. Is that it?

I found a system with a green star, with some colorful planets, and some rather inhospitable sentinels (quite rude actually!)

I built a base so I could return here, but what else is there to do?

Vr and Planet detail [Question]

Like many VR users over the last few years, I've really struggled getting no man's sky to run smooth enough to play.

Because of the recent update, I decided to load it up again and tweak to see if I could get it to run a stable 80 fps on my rift s.

For reference, my system specs are : Ryzen 7 5800x 16gb corsair vengeance 3200mhz Rtx 2060 NMS loaded on ssd

I've tried about every setting on every guide and haven't been able to get it run reliably, but this time I noticed something kind of starting.

As long as I have the planet detail setting on standard, I can either max out or have every setting on high, and maintain stable 80fps. I was wondering if anyone else can confirm this?

As soon as I up planet detail to enhanced, I lose about 15 to 20% of my performance. Just wanted to see if this was the same for other people. It's kind of a bummer cause planet detail makes a pretty big difference in visual fidelity, but if turning it down means I can play smooth then geuss that's the tradeoff.

Kind of interesting how this update changes the "explore planets" dynamic [Discussion]

Before, coming in to a planet with "aggressive sentinels," it was like, "oh well, they'll be annoying as hell but whatever, I'm basically immortal with all my shields." Now, though, heading into one of those, we chuckle and think, "Aggressive, eh? Yeah, not for long. Go ahead and start something so I can find your off switch that much faster."

And even with non-crazed sentinels, the temptation is strong to just touch down, light up the first one you find, go all mass-murderer, and make the planet nice and quiet.

As a bonus, if you're having trouble finding undergrounds (common, uncommon, rare, whatever), almost every resource depot has cave openings near it, so it's a win-win--scan for resource depots with the exo, harvest the canisters there for glass and parts, and look for undergrounds while you're there.

Really changes the rhythm of the whole thing... before it was just "look around at stuff," and now it's "subjugate/conquer/pacify first, then harvest the remains."

I guess it'll take some getting used to. Pretty strange at the moment, though.

Scrap and bones spawning [Question]

I'm relatively new at 30 hours in. I've read that salvaged scrap is better to earn over ancient bones. From what I have seen that is true, with one exception...

Most worlds ive seen will spawn 1 to 3 (but mostly 1-2) per node whether bones or scrap, except for one world where the bones spawn in nodes of 5-8 (normally 1 or 2 worth over a million) and the nodes are close together so there is slways one or two in sight - i never have to search around.

I've been trying to find a world with scrap that yields that many scrap per nodes but after many systems I haven't, nor have I found another world that does that many bones.

So my question - is it rare to find a world where you get consistently 5-8 scrap / bones per node or am I just too early in the game to know better?

Xbox Players, are your loading times insane? Got a good internet connection? Try it on the xCloud instead! [Information]

The title kind of says it all, I recently decided to play No Man's Sky on my second Xbox (located in a different room of my house, GF was watching tv on my other console), and this was an original model Xbox One. Instead of waiting for the game to install on this one, I just opted for the xCloud, and to my surprise those really long loading screens where you're porting back and forth between different systems or even when initially loading up, are dramatically decreased. Every now and again I see glitchy pixels for a second or two, but honestly it's worth the trade off in my opinion. 99% of the time the game looks as amazing as it does when installed natively, but just thought I'd put this out there in case nobody knew they had that option. All you gotta do is uninstall it, have a good enough internet connection, have Game-pass ultimate, and bingo! Loading times go from a minute plus, to maybe 10 seconds tops for me. Hope this helps!

I preordered the game and have been wanting to get back into it [Discussion]

I’ve tried to play it a lot of times since release, and have 163 hours but I keep dropping it because I don’t really like building a base. Without building a base my gameplay loop is just “go to new planet, scan things, repeat”. Last time I got into it was with the Derelicts. I hope Sentinel will bring me back in but reading the patches makes it seem like a lot of it needs Exocraft which needs a base to be built. And I know Freighters exist but even then it’s too much base management for me.

Can We Please Have an Absolute Steering Toggle For First-Person Driving? [Suggestion]

Driving any vehicle in third person is about as natural as it gets, me being familiar with Halo's driving model. So why exactly does the entire scheme change when I switch to first person, making it almost undrivable on console. Being able to turn your head while inside is cool and all but the enhanced immersion I get from first person is quickly dashed when I lose so much of the driving control. You lose a lot of finer turning angles when you can only move the stick about 45° either way before the vehicle starts going in reverse. I really want to drive in first person but it's so hard to enjoy myself for any more than a few seconds when my maneuvering is so neutered.

Bug that makes "personal" sounds get progressively quieter until you reload the game? [Bug]

I'm starting back in after a year or so away from the game, but am running into an issue that I remember encountering the last time I played as well.

Essentially, sometimes while playing my "personal" sound effects (stuff like footsteps, jetpacks, mining laser, some weapons, etc. for either my character, or piloting the ExoMech) get much quieter than normal. Once this happens, every once in a while they get even quieter again, until eventually they are completely inaudible. Reloading the game makes all the sounds go back to normal.

It seems to be the same issue other users encountered, such as here, or in this case, so it appears to have been around for a while now.

Does anybody know if any solutions / workarounds have since been found for this issue? I can't remember if I had found some workaround / way to prevent the issue the last time I played.

How deep do I need to be to spawn a missing water fauna? [Question]

So Ive scoured this planet and its many seas and still cannot seem to get this last one to spawn. I like to have the entire system discovered and mapped when I build a base there and I have already spent way too much time on this last one lol. Its traits are rare/always active/found in the north. Im basically on the north pole with 15-20u deep water. Im not sure what Im supposed to be spawning but I figure it has to be too big for the lakes and puddles.

Any help would be much appreciated.

The re-worked sentinels are a blessing. [Discussion]

Honestly wow.

They were little more than an inconvenience before, just there, on the odd occasion interrupting me.

They are meant to be this menacing force that puts a bit fear in you but I found them quite cute.

Then the update dropped and they are brilliant now, much more intense, they give you a bit of a challenge and the best part, full on battles.

Me and two mates started a war on an icy planet with them, it was fantastic, absolute chaos, it was a nice change of pace and it was so much fun, it felt like there were hundreds of them, even felt like a proper battlefield as well, craters, smoke, walker parts strewn all over.

10/10 to hello games for this, well done guys this is great.

For context, I started playing when the game launched on Xbox One. Since then, I've started, stopped, deleted and restarted after every few updates (mainly due to bugs. I had a pretty rough one around the introduction to the first community events). With all of this information, crossplay, and whatnot, are my old discoveries still out there?

Queston about expedition items [Question]

Are expedition items locked on the single expedition playthrough save? I would prefer to not start a new campaign, just to participate in upcoming expedition. I don't want to halt progress for my main profile. However, if there at very least expedition rewards can be transferred to my main profile, then maybe there is something in it for me. I just don't know how this stuff works, because I just went through Golden Vector expedition last year, and rest of rewards from other expeditions didn't entice me. This time, I'm having eyes on the royal cosmetics.

I found my loneliest planet yet [Fan Work]

In the Empty galaxy Budullangr, at the edge of a void between nebulae, I found an uncharted system with two planets, no space station, no structures, no water, no sentinels, just an airless, lifeless rock and its molten partner.

I built my base, Desolation Row, on the far side from it, so all I see when I look up is stars. There’s nothing but rusted metal deposits and dihydrogen crystals as far as my scanners can pick up.

A quick visit to the molten world found bipedal reptiles about a foot tall; I brought one back with me and it scampered away across the level plain—its message translated by my exosuit read, “Scouting ahead!”

Trolling and weekend missions (warning, solution, and rant) [Discussion]

Haven’t played the game for a while and recently tried to complete the weekend mission. Had someone’s base spawn in on top of me, trapping me in a room with no doors.

TO GET OUT OF THE TROLL’S BASE: apparently we can report the base through or toggled menus and it will disappear. I didn’t known this, so I used my plasma launcher on myself, quit the game without saving when I couldn’t recover my stuff, and loaded back in to find my inventory wiped. I lost eggs, ship parts, all sorts of things that I couldn’t transfer.

Don’t be like me and fall for this. Better yet, don’t be a scummy person and make things not enjoyable for people who play games to escape from the awful behaviors of the human race. Thanks. Won’t be playing online in this game ever again.

What about sentinel packs that have different sentinels in them depending on the planets rating? Like extreme sentinel planets could have groups of several walkers, or a walker and a couple mechs along with some scout drones, aggressive planets could have a couple mechs, a dog and some scouts, and regular planets could have maybe a dog, a couple armed sentinels and a couple scouts?? It sounds like it would add some more to the game I think

  • have an auto position reset for stand up or seat down postion when playing: for exemple be stand up on foot, and sitting in vehicules.

  • in vehicule : HUD menu would appear by putting an hand to a part of our dashbord instead of our gauntlet. To select a quick menu option without having to stop

  • on foot, in combat it's difficult to not activate the menu by mistake. Perhaps could we must press a button tho activate the menu on our left gantlet ?

  • can we have a ZOOM with our scan visor ?

  • can we have a head visor option for fightinng in exocraft.. difficult to target a moving sentinel

  • can we seat on a chait in game ?

Confirmed - Sentinel Weapon Shards affect all installed weaponry [Video]

TLDR: Sentinel Weapon Shards apply to all weapons, video below.

So I made a thread the other day about how it seemed the new Sentinel Weapon Shards only affected the Boltcaster weapon when placed next to them.

I later noticed that they only share a border colour with Boltcaster modules.

So I installed a Pulse Spitter, upgraded it, then kept adding Shards until I got three really good upgrades, and stacked them together.

I recorded a video of me emptying 151 rounds with full Shard upgrades, removed them all, and then fired another 151 rounds.

Using video editing software, I added a timer and have conclusive proof that the Shards do indeed improve all weaponry installed.

The reload time was changed by a few frames, but the buffs were more fire rate than anything else.

What are you guys using? is there an "optimal" weapon set up? there's so many more options to wreck sentinels now! Also; Summoners suck!

New Minotaur Cannon Upgrades Bug/Glitch? [Bug]

So I've completed the new sidequest for the modded sentinel mech and maxed out everything. However, when I use the minotaur cannon, the fire rate is lower than the base cannon with no upgrades, even though the upgrades state increased fire rate. Anyone got any reasons for this, or is it a new bug that came with the update?

Why can’t I make or customize my multi tool or ship to look how I want? [Question]

Trying to find the perfect multi tool is honestly annoying. Constantly reloading on planets and flying back to the space station over and over gets old. Then if you do find one that you like you just spam commercial charts to find an s class cabinet. There’s no exploration to find the multi tool or the cabinet. Why can’t I make it look how I want and be done with it? Then I can focus on upgrades.

The ship is even worse. You’re literally sitting in the space station waiting. That’s it. Unless the coordinate exchange has the perfect ship found crashed.

If by chance the coordinate exchange sub has the multi tool or ship you want specifically isn’t that the same as customizing? You fly straight there get exactly what you want without having to go through any hassle.

Fall damage compared to sentinels [Discussion]

I play on survival, and I’m loving the update, but I still find it somewhat ridiculous that these new super sentinels don’t hurt me as much as a single story fall does.

Falling from a height even Geralt would survive takes out half my shields, but the sentinel Minotaur can’t unless I let it.

Concept: the exploration QoL update [Suggestion]

Just gonna cut straight to it:

The cartographer update, offers various QoL improvements and a rudimentary surface mapping feature. Including:

the ability to bookmark space stations and bases in the portal menu

the ability to toggle on and off non essential waypoints (to alleviate visual clutter)

the ability to designate essential waypoints

a variety of save beacon icons to choose from, as well as colors

decreasing the size of the autopathing threshold for space stations, we all know how annoying it is trying to fly towards a planet when there’s a station marker in the way

a very simple mapping feature that automatically records terrain and water (designated by simplistic colors), and the ability to freeform draw on them (points of interest n such)

Freighter changed shape [Bug]

So I just brought 2000 tritium from a space station to build some frigate fuel. Upon opening the inventory menu I notice that the shape of my freighter has completely changed! Instead of it being the horizontal version it was now verticle. The one I had already summoned was still the same, but the shape was different in the summon freighter menu.

My question is how did this happen? I've heard of people swapping freighters in multiplayer but I was the only person in the system. Am I always gonna be at risk of my freighter changing out of the blue?

A tip that has helped me with settlement crashing... [Information]

On PS5 I was having the same issues with my game crashing whenever I tried to make improvements on my settlement as a lot of you all.

What finally helped me was putting a save beacon in the overseers office. Accept whichever building you want, exit out of the menu and without doing anything else make a manual save with your save beacon and then immediately load that save. After doing this I was able to carry on as normal until the building completed with no more crashing issues.

I know it's not ideal, but it's allowed me to complete two more buildings now with no more crashes.

Best of luck traveler.

Free freighter not for free? [Question]

So I don't own any freighters.

I declined the first offer by just requesting payment (as the guide says in the wiki) and I know I could get a free Capital freighter afterwards because I've reloaded it a few times.

Does the free only apply to the NORMAL sized Capital ships? For example, the Venator class one?

I saw a really nice Resurgent one I wanted and went for it by portaling to the system, jumping around a few systems, and coming back. This one is in a system that requires an Eridium Drive if that matters. I warp in the system, kill the pirates attacking the freighters, and talk to the captain, but it's not offering it for free?

The only thing I can think of is cause it's not a normal size or because I portaled to it instead of through normal gameplay? I know my mission is good to go as I was trying for an S-Class capital before I saw this Resurgent one. I reloaded my manual save and went to it instead.

Any advise is appreciated for a first timer on the subreddit!

Thanks.

Has VR combat always been trash or is there something I'm missing? Literately can't hit anything past 30 feet. [Question]

I'm having trouble hitting sentinels from pretty close let alone from a distance. And now they added an entire patch dedicated to combat with units you have to strategically attack or you die, like healer bots.

In desktop there's a crosshair, but in VR there is no crosshair or autoaim so the javelin for example, is mostly useless. On the older patch you can at least see bullet trails from your weapons, but now the trails are basically invisible so I can't even follow that.

Is there a way to improve VR or is this game just not meant for it?

Atlas path stuck after finishing Artemis Path [Question]

Hi everyone, I’m new here so I’m very sorry if this has been discussed before. I play on XBox, started NMS for the first time just last week (yay game pass) and I’m stuck, so I was hoping someone had any insight other than restarting the game. :/

I completed the Artemis path. Done. It’s no longer on my primary mission screen. I made the mind arc then let made my decision about him on the Anomaly.

My problem is now, I can’t ask Apollo for Atlas coordinates. Or Nada. They just keep repeating “You made the right decision, etc” over and over.

On top of that, I DID make it into the interface at one point randomly a day or so ago. But the interface said nothing to me about seeds (granted I didn’t have the atlas path selected in my log at the time): so I’m worried I’m deadlocked. Anyone have any advice?

Love this game, but [Suggestion]

As with any constructive criticism post NMS gets this will probably be downvoted to oblivion, but please hear me out.

I'm a pre-Beyond player with over 1300 hours. Have bought the game 3 times already and it's literally the only game that I play. Even in its humble state, it has more to offer than it has any right to.

The waves of new and enthusiastic players with every new update is awesome.

For older players, however, there is one thing that is sorely lacking the longer you play for, that becomes more and more of a reason to stop playing.

There is no challenge -- none, zero -- whatsover.

The easiness of Normal mode makes sense -- it's the chill exploration game that Sean Murray advertised, and a breath of fresh air after all those in-game purchases titles out there.

But why, why o why are Survival and Permadeath almost just as easy?

Dropping storage slot size, while welcome for making it more realistic, is challenging only in proportion with the added tedium.

The extra hit points of pirates and sentinels are small at best, and barely noticeable.

There's literally no other difference. You get a few upgrades easily paid for within a few hours, and you're practically invincible.

Our first freighter is available for free, thus rendering larger unit accrual (therefore mining and crafting) less meaningful from the get go. Again, makes sense in Normal mode, but has no place in Survival.

New Sentinel update only emphasises all of this: with a few upgrades and a Minotaur it's easy af to best wave 5.

The list goes on.

Challenge makes gaming more more engaging.

Of all the updates they work on, this would by far be the simplest: boost the stats and aggression of any threat; make is have to work a bit harder for things so it isn't like plucking fruit from the garden of eden all the time; make all upgrades less overpowered; give us more hostile...

I only have one game right now. I've sunk 20 hours into it so far, in like 5 days lol. This is the only game I've ever played where i can honestly and sincerely say "after 20 entire hours playing, I have still barely scratched the surface of everything this game is about."

This might genuinely be one of the largest games in existence, in my opinion. Someone please tell me how nearly every aspect is procedurally generated but you STILL have some of the most in-depth quest lines in any game I've ever played?? How is that even possible???

I spent the first 15 or so hours doing basic space stuff, trying to rack up some wealth, exploring my local solar system, mining away a metric ton of cobalt to become a millionaire.

Then I get a prompt to start doing missions at the local space station, and one of them makes me warp jump about 3 solar systems away. And then I realize. This game is an entire galaxy. Possible more than one.

A few hours ago I went to an entire aquatic planet. And you know what I discovered? On top of being one of the coolest space games in existence, the game had an ENTIRE SYSTEM for making underwater bases and submarines!! I found that out by responding to a distress beacon and getting this super in depth quest line where a crew of a freighter crashed on the planet and were slowly driven insane by the lack of stimulation of seeing nothing but water for an entire year.

I've done so much, I already have a third of the PS4 trophies. I know about half the Gek language and am a millionaire with multiple bases spanning multiple planets.

And I have still BARELY scratched the surface.

I've done maybe 4 quests so far. I don't have a freighter (I haven't been able to afford one lmao). I'm not a captain. I don't have a crew yet. Or pets. Or a farm. Or an orbital base. I haven't reached the center of...

I managed to get stuck in a very unique way and I REALLY need help. [Question]

I started a new save and everything was going great. I saw a ship in one of the space stations that I haven't seen before and I really liked so I bookmarked it in my memory.

I continued awakenings until I got to that part where you find a giant crashed freighter, I turned off the signal thingy and before I used the ball I saw a tech module that I know you can sell for a lot of cash.

I decided to go to the tech module and I saw another, then another, then another. I had a few million after at least an hour but not enough to buy that ship.

I went to another planet and continued my tech module grinding until I had 22 million. I bought the ship, then thought for a second "Where is the signal?".

Long story short I've been flying around the planet looking for the freighter and so far no luck, any tips so I can find that freighter?

I have Monday off of school but I don't want to spend my day off searching for a freighter because of my own stupidity, I will if I have to, but if I don't and you have some tips to save me from hours of searching please tell me.

I can’t rename anything. What’s wrong? [Question]

Hi guys, so I just started this game yesterday and everything is fine except for one thing. (Xbox Series S)

I can’t rename ships, bases, nor planets/systems. It doesnt matter if I try renaming directly after discovering something or not, and it doesnt matter if I create a new base, claim it, and immediately try renaming it. It looks like I can only rename creatures that I discover. The pencil icon is always greyed out when I hover over it.

Let's Talk About Enemies [Discussion]

So, we've been fighting Sentinels since the game came out. And idk, some people might call me bloodthirsty, but I don't think they're enough. We need more variety. Like, from all the logs we've found in abandoned buildings and derelict freighters, all of the races in the game clearly conflict with each other occasionally. We fight bandits in space, why not fight them on land too? Or maybe have to land in the freighters as they're being attacked and fight off more bandits? And the animals need a tune up when it comes to combat. None of the predators feel like a threat. Lets add some more biological horrors as enemies and not just have them only show up when you shoot eggs. I LOVE the new Sentinel types they added in this recent update, it refreshed combat and shows they're going in a good direction, but I do wanna fight more than just Sentinels at some point. Controversial, I know. What do you all think?

Is this a Pistol, or an Experimental weapon? Or both? [Question]

So I grabbed this thing after seeing it on the Coordinate Exchange because the last update gave us more multitool slots, and I figured it was time to collect one of each type and use them each for the task they are best at: Pistols for mining, Experimentals for scanning, Alien for damage, etc...

Unfortunately, the Wiki doesn't say what happens in instances like this, where a weapon is short like a pistol, but skinned like an experimental, nor does the game tell you what type of multitool it is...

So does it get the stat boosts of both types? Does one override the other (Alien or Experimental replacing the Pistol stats)?

Okay so I found the planet (its actually a moon but whatever) and when I go to photo mode the only option to take a photo is by pressing the xbox home button and taking a screenshot there. But…. Nothing happens, the mission doesn’t update. I looked at the in-game controls and they tell me to press the “A” button….. and nothing happens there either.

I’ve seen some people say (in my searching) to press the start button. Well that only opens the menu, same for holding it. Maybe pressing or pressing and holding the options button? Nope that one opens my inventory. So how am I supposed to complete this mission? How do I take a simple picture?

Is this game multiplayer? I keep trying to read about it and get conflicting information. Is it like sea of thieves in which you have an instance of 30 players and you can interact with them? Or am I alone in the universe if I play.

We should have abandoned buildings like we have derelict freighters. [Suggestion]

This could make visiting those manufacturing buildings a more interesting and unique experience. We already have to blast down the doors and fight sentinels to get in so why not change things up. Add a elevator inside that will take us down to a random interior.

It could be like the Hive buildings in Resident Evil. Have a Galatic Umbrella Corporation. But seriously ilI think it's something they could implement as they already have the assets and know how from the derelict freighters.

Weekend Community Quests are terrible [Question]

To expand on the title, I'm really angry with the Weekend Events (in particular this one). I don't get to do them often since I work most weekends, and even when I do have the time to do them I'm never able to complete them. I just spent 3 hours digging in the dirt looking for working coordinates, and I never found anything.

I had gotten off work early. I thought I had time. I was so excited to get it done, as it would have given me enough Quicksilver to finally buy a void egg. Nope. Not happening now. I don't have the time now since I have to go in early to work tomorrow. Thanks NMS, for making a broken and ridiculous quest. Very cool.

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Is there something else I need to do for these types of quests? Can they even be completed solo?

I hate to be that guy complaining that a game is easy but I feel like while the sentinel update is amazing I can't help but feel like they're still not that threatening to me at all.

Old Discoveries gone? [Question]

Heya!

I have been back on a planet in one of the first systems I ever visited, but to my surprise the game told me that I was never on any of these planets, but not only do I remember certain places, I have put Save Beacons at these places and know for sure I was there once.

That was but long before the wipe of the old fauna, and the color and maybe atmosphere of the planet changed too since I was last time there.

Does anyone know something about this? Does it happen after some time regularly, or could it be because of the changes to the universe while I was so long away from that star system?

I was really optimistic about creating my first multi-purpose farm... [Discussion]

It started as just a mold farm. I found a good spot on some large grassy hills. Then I thought, hmm, why not also make this into some kind of New Zealand-esque hill farm for the various wild animals in the area. I've done so many things in NMS but one thing I've never tried is the whole animal farm. I built a nice pen adjacent to the mold pen. Purchased the equipment from the Anomaly. But I'm so disappointed thus far! The auto feeder does not attract ANY animals, except for one reallllly dumb theropod guy who somehow got stuck in the mold pen and couldn't find his way to the feeding pen. Looking at past reddit posts on this topic, it looks like this has always been a problem without ever being fixed.. Has anyone had any luck with animal farms?

The anomaly is multiplayer [Information]

I thought this was obvious but it might need some clarity for new players. Whatever system you’re in you will load into an anomaly with players currently sat in other systems. The nexus will offer missions that you can complete as a team, up to 4 players. The reason for this post is twice yesterday the active mission was to shoot pirates. A player started it and I joined. If you work together it’s easier, we all get rewards. The player who started it then abandoned it because they didn’t want to do it in a team. That’s a bit annoying because I like the shooting missions and I had to wait for it to come around again. It came around again and the same thing happened. Only this time I was called a griefer. Please, if you don’t want to play a multiplayer mission from the nexus, turn off multiplayer. Don’t call me a griefer if I join your mission. I hand out ai valves, I help whenever I can, it’s disheartening to be called that by someone who doesn’t understand the way it’s set up. This isn’t a rant, it’s a knowledge share.

Thoughts... [Discussion]

Let me preface the following by saying I own NMS on (3) platforms, I platinum'd the game on PS4, and have well over 1000 hrs spread across all 3 platforms. This little rant is a cumulnation of my experience from day one to now and my insight into what I want and I believe NMS needs.

Let's rip out hat to Hello Games for the hard work and dedication they have shown to their game, the free updates, and their continued support and investment. Almost every other developer could take a page from them.

Over the years we have gotten a plethora of updates that have added numerous spheres of activity, some very welcomed...others, well, it's content that's been added.

I have been clamoring for quite a while now for a proc gen update with added assets. This is what NMS is at its core...a serene explorative kinda game. Imo it isn't about min/maxing, collecting ships or multi tools, harvesting milk or eggs, it's about the excitement of seeing what's over the next hill or what's in the next valley.

I understand that adding more content it adds to explorative aspect...but the environment we are doing this is remains the same. I appreciate any content we get in a 5 yr old game, hell that's all bonus.

What we truly need is a proc gen overhaul, add in more assets, so that when we go after a diff ship, or hunt down those royal multi tools, we do so seeing something new, not something we've seen countless times. I'd be more inclined to spend time on planets if there were new items to hunt down, new minerals to collect, new fauna with new assets.

Now, at least for us old timers, the whole game feels repetitive and boring. We see nothing new...I really miss those early days of playing where I spent hours on planets, on foot, just wandering and exploring to see what I can find. Well the answer then is the answer now...pretty much the same thing I found on the last planet.

Anyone who has invested...

No other players in Anomaly - PS4 [Question]

This was all pre-Sentinal update.

Hear me out - I’ve logged 170+ hours on NMS in the last 2 years. I’ve completed Artemis and Atlas paths awhile ago. I’ve spent a lot of time in The Anomoly. There was never anyone else in there but myself and the NPCs. EVER. Now I’m not a multiplayer/online gaming person so my experience with it is pretty limited and I’ve never really understood that side of NMS. And I am not sure if the multiplayer option was on before, but my stepdaughter plays when she visits and could have turned it on. Anyway, I saw other players in there for a couple days a week or two ago. I could interact with hand gestures and I had options to ask them to join a group. Then I picked up the game a couple days later and just like that, they were gone. I’ve checked and my multiplayer settings are on and my internet connection is good. What am I missing? It’s not imperative I see the other players but it was cool to see the different companions some had and their ships, some I hadn’t see before.

Here's why the Antimatter Harvesting device should be changed to a Tritium or Di-Hydrogen harvesting device [Discussion]

The antimatter harvesting unit was the last thing I unlocked at the construction research terminal, because it's the least useful unlock imo. Antimatter is easy to make once you're past the early game, it's made with materials that can be automatically harvested so there's no shortage of supply.

Tritium and di-hydrogen however, which never stop being in demand, can't be automatically harvested. You can do without tritium since Uranium can charge the pulse engine instead (and that one can be automatically harvested), but you can't really do without di-hydrogen. Even though you stop needing it in the mid-late game for your launch thrusters after you get the upgrades for it, you never stop needing it for frigate fuel. Since tritium refines into di-hydrogen though it could serve the purpose just as well.

It's odd imo that one of the most important resources for the late game has no way of being automatically harvested, I really hope HG hears this idea at some point and implements it or something similar to solve this problem.

I've tried a bunch of different things and I'm not sure what the best setup is. Trying smooth movement (body relative). Is there any way to do the jetpack boost faster or get around faster? So much time running.

I think I broke Sentinels on my main save :-} [Question]

I loaded the update and started playing from a 300+ hour save game in a bit of a silly "snipers nest" I set up - just a circular building, 4 exits and glass all around), and ramps up to each door (it was slightly elevated to one corner).

Straight away I started taking potshots at the sentinels, and noticed that none of them were firing at me while I was close to the building on the ramps, other than the quads and walkers.

The story arc didn't trigger at any point.

I got the location of another sentinel nest (hive ?), poked around, was able to immediately (IIRC) access the control terminal and disable the drones without being attacked. I was able to attack the 3 buildings around it to collect more bits. I then did the same to one on another planet.

I've since fought off an attack on my settlement, and several more waves at my snipers nest to the point where they're disabled, but still no story arc appears - I've even installed some of the tech in my multitool and exo, not knowing what I was doing.

Have I broke the update folks ? :-}

Updates Since I Last Played? [Question]

I haven’t played since about Christmas. I’ve seen some things on here about personal robots called Laylaps, and some interesting new exotic multi-tools. Was wondering if there had been any big updates or added features since my last play? The last BIG update I was there for was the one that added settlements, and the last expedition I played was the Worm one.

PS: what does Laylaps do? Just carry stuff?

Can’t swap items [Discussion]

I think I know the answer to this but thought I’d check to be sure. I can’t add anymore slots to my multi-tool & I’m trying to line-up all the blaze javelin upgrades because I heard it’s more effective to do that for upgrades. But it won’t let me swap the position of items. If you really can’t then that’s really one of the most ridiculous things I’ve seen in a game.

So i just lost 130 hours of work that put into the game [Information]

The realization hasn't hit me yet. Last time i'll be listening to someone online for a solution to a problem without researching what would actually happen.

Please don't make the mistake I made where I deleted my game cash and the game itself and then expected it to fix the "expedition complete" issue when I uninstalled and redownloaded. God i'm an idiot... I shouldn't be doing this kinda stuff when i'm sick.

500+ hours in and I'm just now learning you can change which inventory you want to send items to in the quick menu [Information]

As in, when you select something to quick transfer to one of your inventories, it'll show "X" on PC or "Y" / triangle on console over the default inventory you can press that button to quick transfer to. But if you press Q / E on PC or left / right on the D-pad on console, you can change which inventory that button sends it to. This has significantly sped up my inventory transfers, you just figure out how many button presses it takes to go to the inventory you're aiming for, X-E-E-X etc., and you save having to drag and drop every item

Updates for QoL stuff? [Question]

Any word on QoL updates? Such as having the items stack up automatically when you transfer them to the storage (and not end up having 5 stacks of gold in different storage because i transfered them at different times). Or being able to designate a computer as the main base so we can keep track of the base computer questline without having to figure out which base computer has it?
