Can't find Atlas(Atlas Path quest) [Question]

Hey guys, i just somehow can't find Atlas. I finished already two quest for it, i built Remembrance and Star Seed. Now when i go to Log there us Primary Mission "Atlas Path" it tells me to speak with Atlas, and ofc i head to Polo and Nada, i asked Polo for Atlas Coordinates, but seems that he doesn't gave it to me, when i head out of Anomaly, and to Galaxy it doesn't show me where is Atlas.. P.S. I am in Eissentam Galaxy now, i tried warping to Eucild but didn't helped, do i maybe need to go to Galaxy Core and then to next galaxy?

So, has anyone found out how to capture etc. your own sentinel drone? [Question]

Hey folks,

did the new sentinel questline, outfitted my nimotaur, am actually extremely underwhelmed that you can't re-colour it (would have loved to give that new Minotaur red or yellow lights and a black paintjob) and now, I was trying to capture and then reassemble my own sentinel drone. BUT I ran into that little problem that I just can't capture them. I can hunt them, yes. And destroy. But I'm not able to capture one, not to speak of reassembling them. Also, I didnt find any bench or anything similar to reassemble drones.

Right now, I'm stuck with the Sentinel Flare and that's it. No hint, no quest how to capture drones or even edit, reassemble, reprogram them.

What am I missing, how do you unlock the feature?

And if you don't know what I'm talking about, that's what the official release log says:

Build Your Own Drone Companion / Travellers who work with Iteration: Tethys, Specialist Polo, and the other Traveller Iterations aboard the Space Anomaly to complete these new Sentinel stories will have the chance to capture, reassemble and reprogram their own robotic companion in the form of a friendly Sentinel Drone.

So how and where do I build my own drone companion? What steps to take?

Underground bug (help plz) [Bug]

So I made an underground expansion for my base (7x7). It's like a big storage room so I decided to make it 2 walls tall. The thing is, even though it's underground, there are no holes in the ceiling of the cave, and I made a roof for the whole thing, it's raining inside. Apparently the game thinks I'm outside so the whole rain/fog/heat storm/sounds of creatures combo hits me every time I get to this storage room. Do you have any ideas on how to fix it or have experienced something similar? Thx in advance

Suggestions for the Sentinel update [Suggestion]

Loving the AI Mech upgrade for the Minotaur and the idea of your own Sentinel drone so I hope we can get better customobility in the near future

It would be nice if the new Minotaur Sentinel parts took on the colors you chose to color your base Minotaur

With all the new Sentinel models it would be great if we could choose the model design our drone used

The update is amazing, HG. Keep it up :)

Is an S Class Freighter worth it? [Question]

I currently have an A Class, and really have not done much worth it -- I basically use it as a mobile base and refining station and haven't done anything else with it. I'm getting to the point now where I'm ready to start working on it, collecting frigets, upgrading it, etc... My question is: Is the S Class worth it? Is it a big difference from the A Class? Or should I just keep what I have?

First Spawn Battle Mask [Discussion]

This is by far the one thing I hate about the game. Spent time grinding that quicksilver up to get the First Spawn Battle Mask because I'm a Gek character only to find out the Gek can't wear it?!?!? Wtf Hello Games....

Why is base building still so broken? [Question]

No man sky has made base buildings such a crucial part of the game yet it doesn’t feel polished at all. Why can I not build a medium-size structure without the game completely wigging out and thinking I’m outside even though I’m surrounded by walls and a roof. A 5 x 5 structure with a three tall wall apparently is too much for the game to handle when it comes to registering if you’re inside or outside. I just don’t understand and it baffles me why the game is like this when it’s such a crucial part so I’m wondering if there’s limitations I’m ignorant too?

can I play with my friend if he's doing an expedition? [Question]

My friend wants to join the game and asked me where to start, I told him to do the 1st expedition if possible (I think you can still do it now?), the question is, can I join him with my main save?, just to be around and explain him things, do I have to use my 1st expedition save or what?

#

Can we please just get an option to lock HUD to HMD? [Suggestion]

I know there's been a mod that did it, but I think it did other stuff too and of course updates may break it.

I would just love the HUD fixed to HMD, which would make me feel more like I'm wearing a helmet with an actual HUD, but much more importantly, allow me to play standing and turn in real life.

Exosuit Inventory augmentation? [Question]

About a month or two ago, I was playing with someone with a maxed out character, he gave me 20 or so items that allowed you to upgrade exosuit inventory for free like the storage augmentation does on the starship. I was wondering how do you get this item? I thought it may be drop pods but that's just a single free one not an item you can use. Any help is appreciated!

#

Overwhelmed [Question]

I haven’t played the game in a pretty long time. I put tons of hours into it before all the big updates. I was super excited to get back into the game but I’m pretty overwhelmed. I completely forgot about everything in the game and there’s so many new things I don’t know where to start. Is there a video that details how I should go about the new game with all the features or something to catch me up?

Question about animal companions [Question]

Hello, so I have been messing around with the companion system in the game. Have the issue of brutally murdering all of them on accident though. Is this normal? I couldn’t find anybody else having the same issue with some light googling. Basically, what happens is I will be using the mining laser and my companion just runs in front of me every time and it’s basically an insta-kill. Is it because they’ve all been babies? Am I missing a setting somewhere? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

Question about the story “end” and choices. Spoilers. [Question]

So I’m at a point in the purge where I get to go through the last portal which surprisingly would save me the trip to the core. But I know about the differences.

The question would be. Can I save the purge thing for later? For example go through the core to get that achievement and then doing the final purge to get the choice?

No man's sky piracy 💀update idea [Discussion]

Pirates/and black market dealers have taken refuge in the abandoned systems. in the abandoned stations instead of getting normal C,B,A,S class upgrades they are all X class upgrades. want to race your starship head over to the new starship race terminal in the abandoned spacestation that will give you a chart to the planet in that system for a starship race where you race NPCs, friends, time trial, or death race and win new upgrades for starship weapons and other parts, or nanites. their also needs to be more upgrades for rocket launchers that have heatseeking technology or EMP disabling. Also add the feature of adding small freighters to your already existing fleet (maybe a maximum of 3) which you can you get just like getting frigates or get a free one by fighting the new pirate freighters fighting off waves of pirates protecting it in the abandoned systems (which you will have to repair after claiming) now giving you more space for additional starships to your collection bring the maximum from 6 to 18 starships. Now all frigates and the adding of new small freighters will match with your primary freighter color choice

...You can't swap multitool UPGRADES? [Question]

"Inventory full" on exocraft with free space on inventory [Suggestion]

Hi there, just wanted to point out something that's been bugging me for quite a while. As the title suggests, if you're in an exocraft and its inventory is full, anything you pick up is automatically destroyed. The same is not true for the starship. I reckon it ought to work similarly, that way we get to keep the exocraft inventory mainly for upgrades and still use our inventory to collect resources.

journey to the centre: how do u guys "bookmark" your progression (for teleport) [Question]

as title says - i have to travel my ai base and farm to collect/sell but every time i have to travel in zig-zag like

1)to my lastest/furthest point

2)to base

3)to furthest point

4)to ai farm etc. (because i'm using the teleporters "previous system" )

is there any info i missed of to display system's distance to centre? should i always rename the systems like "xxx LY to Centre" or something? or simply should i take notes?

Teleport to outside of a space station [Question]

I am just starting base building. Got two research stations and decided a portal was a good idea. Built the portal. Built a solar panel and connected it. Used it to warp to the local space station - and suddenly I was walking on the outside of the station!

Life support quickly ran out - recharged it - it ran out again and again. No sign of an entrance to the station or my ship - result death.

Is this "normal"? Dare I use the portal again? Did I do it wrong?

Any comments / advice welcome.

Royal multitool--what is the appeal? [Question]

So I blasted a Sentinel Pillar and shut them down planetwide (this was on my baseworld which didn't have a ton of Sentinel activity). I bought the Royal Multitool, which, while listed as exotic, was C-class and very limited on slots. I found myself wondering what the big fuss about these is, aside from the appearance. Or is it just that: it looks cool?

Help me out here, Travellers.

Really confused about multiplayer story progress [Question]

Hi everyone! My friends and I are playing again for the first time since launch and are blown away by how awesome this game is. We were playing the main story together, my friends logged off to take a break and I continued on until I got my warp drive unlocked and went to another star system. My friends got back on and were stuck in the old system but with MY new quest objective and no blueprints for the warp drive. My question is will the main story always replace their progress if they join my game? Is there a certain point that they can join me where we don't have to worry about it overwriting their story progress anymore? Thank you!

#

Freighter issues after last few updates? [Question]

On PS4

Not sure if this is a bug or has been said previously or just affecting me but my freighter interior is missing rooms and items are clipping with the wall. These are things that were fine before the last few (major) updates.

When I say missing rooms/corridors, I mean they are there but a wall is in the way and they are behind them. I have tried to edit the section of the freighter but to no avail and my vault spaces are also missing and I forgot where they were! I don’t really fancy resetting the interior. Now to the clipping side, where I had some large hydroponic trays, and now a wall cuts one in half so I can’t access the remainder.

I’m pretty sure after a previous earlier update there may have been similar issues and the freighter had to be reset due to updates to the base construction mechanics but thought I would ask here to check if there is a workaround or something I should just report.

Thanks for any help with this!

Should I add an Overseer to one of my bases? [Question]

I'm about 100 hours in to the game, and doing quite well. I have ~10 bases, and I am doing exactly want I want to do.

But this Overseer quest keeps popping up in my log: "Expanding the Base"

What happens if I do add an Overseer to my base? What are the advantages and what are the negatives? Do I even need one?

Weird game crash [Bug]

Me and my girlfriend play this game a lot, and for some reason recently her game has been crashing and it’s strange.

The circumstances of which the crashes occur are ONLY when I jump and are using the Capital ship while she’s in it, other than that, it’s fine.

She uses a PlayStation copy on PS4

And I’m on an Microsoft Market copy on PC

Lost my save... [Bug]

A while ago my computer ran into a problem and I had to reinstall windows. I kept all my files, thankfully, but had to reinstall a lot of stuff. It's been a couple of months since I opened nms, but I just found out I lost my most current save. The last one steam saved was from 2020 and I lost a bunch of stuff. It sucks, but now I get to redo a bunch of stuff.

Settlement crashing [Bug]

Help! Our base computer is gone! [Question]

My GF and I are playing together on Xbox she is on base no.3 cause all of hers keep filling in with rock. While building this last base with her we decided to build high off the ground. She placed the base computer down we got building. When we had a good platform down, I moved her base computer up onto it, we got the structure up and she had all her rooms planned out, but she did not like where I put the computer, she grabbed it to pick it up, not delete, and then accidently Pressed B making it disappear and going out of build mode, the home computer marking went back to the original spot she built it, not where I placed it and the computer is gone! We can't find it. I looked on google but this hasn't happened to anyone yet or something. Does anyone know how to get it back?

Settler construction buried under hill?! [Question]

I have a new-ish settlement that I just started the landing pods construction. Went off world doing stuff and when I came back it’s asking for chromatic metal, but the building is gone and there is a new hill in its place. The market is about 20u under the hill and I can’t access it from anywhere. Tried digging with the manipulator both from multi-tool and from Minotaur with no luck. Any way to reset the building to another location or do I need to ditch the settlement and start over somewhere else?

#

Just Something I'm Curious About... [Question]

So I recently beat the main story for No Mans Sky (don't worry I won't spoil) and I thought about how not once through my around 52 hour save did I ever die. I played on normal and it was my first experience with the game since 2016 and I was wondering if I should be proud of that? It didn't really seem at all hard to stay alive as long as you had basic organization skills and knowledge of inventory management, so as of now it's not exactly something I'm super proud of, I guess it just kinda happened lol.

But should that be something I should be proud of?

The Stone Lake of Gisto Major [Fan Work]

No Man´s Sky has always had one fundamental Problem, that being that no matter how much you try, it will be impossible to fill a universe this vast without eventually having to repeat multiple things. This is true for almost anything: Planets, NPCs, Flora, Fauna...

This is also true for histories

At some point, i found myself creating my own histories based on my time with the game, so that i could fill in those blanks the game always had, and eventually i found myself lost, creating histories while i was just walking and appreciating the landscapes of different planets.

This story is one of those i created, based on my real experience on the planet Gisto Major, one that some people might recognize and remember

Disclaimer: Im not that good of a writer, and this is probably the first time i write something like this for anyone that is not me, plus i was too lazy to do a draft and im not an english native speaker, but with that said ill procede to write the story

It also drags on a bit so... youve been warned

Gisto Major

<Cycle 793 Post-DF: Day one since crash. Following a pirate attack, my ship was moderately damaged, and in an attempt to lose my pursuers, I entered Planet Gisto Major's atmosphere. A most unfortunate event, as soon as I thought i had lost them pirates, I got caught on a nasty storm, multiple core systems got damaged and i was forced to crash land.

Ship is definitely not beyond repairs but it will take a lot of work to get it to fly, i think tomorrow I will start repairing the ship's hull and after thats done I'll get to work on the core systems, hopefully im out of this planet within the two weeks.

As for the geography of this planet... Its about 23:17 Local time,...

Stairway with running light banisters [Build]

Building (heh) off of my landing pad running lights here, I decided to try to make a set of railings/banisters for the 7 stairways at this base. I've always been annoyed that there aren't any banisters in the game by default and messing around with the light floors made me think of these cubes and the possibility of having running lights in other applications. So after like 1.5 hours of painfully careful, yet still not evenly spaced/aligned cubes, here's my light up stairway with lights indicating traffic flow on the stairway. Now to repeat this process on the other 6 large stairways on this base...

Hypnotic...

So while committing sentinel genocide and raiding the sentinel pillars I found a lore bit that said that the sentinels have a unit called a void dragon I do not know if that is the name of their capital ships or somthing different and also it Said their are other races like the sentinels in no mans sky and also the lore bit said at the end the organics shot at the sentinels first so that is why they try to murder people playing the game

Accessing storage containers in multiplayer without owned freighter in system? [Question]

Is there any way to access our 10 storage containers in a group of were in a system that we don’t have a base or our own freighter? Since we are only allowed one freighter per group per system me and a few friends have pretty much been ignoring multiplayer since it’s such a hassle to get to all of our resources and inventory unless you’re the one who has the only allowed freighter. Thankfully it’s possible to pick up exo geobays now so that’s less of a issue but not having access to all our stuff is a major road block since no one want to warp to another system every 5 minutes to deposit

#

A smol request to Papa Murray and the HG crew [Suggestion]

So first of I wanna say, I love the game. Been playing it since launch and the direction you guys have steered this boat in is phenomenal. I truly believe this game is one for the history books. You guys have done things that nobody else have done and anybody else trying it will be biting your style. That being said, I have a small note. A seemingly insignificant feature lacking from this glorious distraction. A feature that may seem like a no-brainer. The feature I'm referring to is the ability to NAME SAVED GAMES. So, when you first start the game up. There is the pre-loading screen whare you see all your saved games. But other then the amount of hours logged in and the time and date of your last save on said files, there is not really much to set one saved game from another. The ability to name these files would give it a little bit more distinction from the rest of the other files. Maybe you have multiple game saves with different characters. Maybe you have one save with a pirate. So you would name that save "pirate Phil" or a devout Atlas worshiper so you name it "religious extremist". I guess you could call it a "quality of life" change. Anyway, that's my suggestion. You're gonna take it or leave it and eather way, I'm going to play the hell out of your game.

Question [Question]

I found a space station with an s class multi tool box ( with an ugly multi tool in it ). I read that to change the available multi tool you have to land on each individual planet, auto save, then reload the save. My system has 3 planets/3 moons. I landed on each celestial body ( individually saving, reloading said save, then returning to the space station ). Each time there was a diff multi tool available but no exotic or experimental ones. Does each system have an exotic in its loot pool? I tried each planet a few times and never seen an exotic or experimental. Any info is appreciated. Thais travelers

FPS dips on planets [Question]

This has been a long standing issue for me, and maybe it’s more common than I think but on almost every planet that has semi dense flora my frames dip from 60+ to about 25 for a few seconds while moving around on foot and jetpacking.

It almost seems like it’s trying to load the terrain and grass while I’m moving and it’s just not able to properly? Noticing horrible grass pop in even just a few feet in front of me sometimes too.

My setup is 3200mhz 16g of ram, Ryzen 2600x, 2070 Super.

Wondering if anyone has any similar experiences or maybe there’s some tweaks I can try. Game runs like absolute butter when these dips aren’t happening.

Cant find earth like planets? [Question]

Well, that was unexpected. [Information]

When the Sentinels update hit, I basically lost the use of my freighters in all my saved games. Somehow forgetting all the years as a PC tech, and more broken updates in MMORPGS than I can count, I zipped up all my save files, and uninstalled/reinstalled. Then, leaving the zip file alone, I started a new game. So right about the time I'm going for my freighter, the patch hits, and sure enough, all the joy. I can build, the back half of the ship isn't a hole to nowhere, life is good! At this point, you can insert /facepalm sounds and /poundheadondesk sounds, as there were a few of them going on 'round here.

So, I finally decide to load up my old game, zipped up the new one, and unzipped the old ones. I'd been so involved with the new game, I had forgotten just before someone blew the bottom of my freighter off that I had bought a bright yellow beaked and shrouded w/external pods Exotic at the local space station.

So, I load up the game, jump in my fighter and head to the station to look at spending some nanites. Nothing struck my interest, but just as I got to the railing, what do I see but the exact same ship I had bought just before the bug hit. While the elapsed in-game time was kind of long, the character being controlled time couldn't have been 15 minutes from purchase to seeing it again.

(really need a facepalm flair, methinks)

Are you new player looking for some tips to get you started? Are you a veteran player with some advice you want to pass along? Looking for a good way to earn units, nanites or just how to get the most out of the game? Check out our new FAQ thread!

Here's some of the FAQ suggestions we received in our previous FAQ thread. Keep in mind that these are opinions from some of our valued OP's and you may agree or disagree with some of these. We just ask that everyone remains respectful when replying to this thread and we look forward to your contribution! NMSTG Mod Team

You can also drop a quick tip!

Tip #1: Always try to be doing multiple things. Pick up the portable refiner so you can refine something from your inventory while exploring and mining.

Tip #2: Avoid multiplayer until unlocking the anomaly, can be stranded if not.

Tip #3: Exotic worlds only have 1 fauna so it's easy to scan all of them.

Tip #4: Need glyphs? All 16 are on one planet here

Q- "I was on the Anomaly and a bunch of expensive stuff showed up in my inventory. What do I do with it? A:" Congrats! Another player has bestowed you with a gift. Most likely it is an item to sell for some quick and easy cash. Usually the item description will tell you what it is used for.

Q: "Help, I claimed a broken ship and now I can't find my starter ship! Is it gone forever?" A:" If you merely selected to "claim" the broken ship and not "swap" it, then your old ship is still around. If you left it with launch fuel in the tank, you can summon it with the quick-menu. If it does not have fuel, it can be summoned on the Anomaly (once you unlock it), your freighter (once you acquire one).

Q- "Are crashed ships worth repairing?" A-" Unless it is an exotic, no. Scrap the ship at the space station, sell the items it gives you, and use those units...

Will buying NMS for Xbox allow me to keep playing on my PC if game pass expires? How would it affect my cloud saves? [Question]

Currently playing on Xbox Series S and PC with cloud / shared saves. I'm also subscribed to game pass.

I want to buy NMS for Xbox while it's on sale just to future proof the purchase in case I decide to drop game pass or NMS leaves game pass at some point.

On the official Xbox site, it says Playable on Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and PC in the game details. Can someone confirm the license is shared across Xbox and PC? Is game pass absolutely required for shared / cloud saves?

Logic: NMS is the only game I'm playing on game pass. After 2 months, the game pays for itself in place of the game pass sub. I want to give Hello Games my money, but would prefer not to risk losing the shared save feature between Xbox and PC.

Thanks all

Is there any way to mark the Artimis story missions 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?

How can I leave the experimental branch? [Question]

One post on the Coordinate Exchange requires one to either go to the experimental branch or wait till that update goes out of it. It's supposed to come out on monday and it's currently tuesday for me so I decided to go to the experimental branch instead of waiting, so I input the code and backed up my saves but how do I leave once I do all that I want to do there?

How do you guys explore exactly? [Question]

Hey, this question might be confusing but I am just curious 😅. Im pretty new to the game and I am enjoying it so far. Mostly doing the main missions and some exploration next to it (especially looking for animals). But my question is how you guys explore (a planet) exactly?

Are you guys using the scanner to find buried technology and similar things and fly/drive there directly? Or do you just land on a random spot on a planet and just walk in any direction to find different things? Is there a lot too see then?

It would be awesome to know how you exactly „explore“. I do not buy many games and therefore I want to experience as much as possible and I can see that exploration plays a big role for many here.

Thank you for every useful answer. Take care and explore more :)

Is everyone alright and unharmed? [Information]

Hi Interloopers. I haven't taken any footage. But yesterday was an absolute crazy day on the anomaly. Me personally. I just bought myself a new ship that I found on the Coords exchange. Used my whole day to pimp it out perfectly (weapons still missing).

Anyways... Later I went up to the anomaly, to hang a bit around some other players, taking a break from everything, even having a few expensive atrefacts for new players to sell. But when I arrived at the anomaly, I was too concerned to get off my ship for the following 20minutes. When I arrived, it looked like a ship was just yeeted out of the anomaly, but it was a troll. Next thing I recieved a bunch of messages "Player XYZ is attacked by spaceship, Player XYZ died from spaceship". I changed the lobby, i saw different ships and playernames while loading in, but yet again, an anomaly troll, flying around, shooting people. I found one quiet lobby. I already forgot what I wanted to do, so I used the teleporter to do settlement stuff. Then I used my ship to went back to the anomaly. Yet again, someone flying around, killing people.

Did anyone know what has happend yesterday? Was it a holiday to celebrate trolls or glitches?😅did I miss something?

Btw. I just wonder what happens with all my stuff when I die in the anomaly?

Top tip for free s class freighter [Information]

Your first freighter is always free so wait until you warp into s wealthy system and a rescue freighter mission to start. If it's the type you want save on a planet recuse the freighter Dock get out of your ship use your analysis visor to see if it's s class. If it congratulations u have a free s class. If it's not reload try again I got my s class capital this way

Other than the beetle, what fauna get faster when you make them larger? [Discussion]

I'm going to do some experiments, so far I've found that many terrestrial fauna get a lot slower when you increase their size, but I suspect that it won't be the case for large shell creatures, or the flying cows. For the classes that I've seen get slower with large sizes, I suspect that there is an ideal height/weight in which they'll go faster. So for 2 legged walkers I'm currently inducing an egg daily on my fastest tame so that I have enough eggs to test a few different sizes at once, I have a 800 unit track. I'm just wondering if there's any info on this already, so far I've seen people dismiss fauna as effective transportation, but that is obsurd, my beetle can fly as fast as the NPC ships on the planets surface, and it's not even at it's largest. My walker can also go 800 units in 52 seconds, which is abnormally fast for a walker, he's naturally 2.1 m with fat legs and no tail.

Im on console and I can't play offline, so changing the date manually isnt possible, so testing will take a while as I have to wait for eggs to be induced and for the tames to reach maturity.

What I know so far; Striders are always pathetic and useless Beetles can go crazy fast when they're large (maybe a bug) Many terrestrials go slower at their largest height Walkers, mechanocera, 4 legged shell creatures, proto species, and flying cows seem to be often faster than other types

What I don't know; What size is ideal for speed for each class What effect does their natural height have on their speed What's the fastest terrestrial faunus

Void Egg Wait Time Skipping [Information]

Was just curious to see if manually changing date and time to be 1 day ahead, changed the void egg timer and turns out you can completely skip the waiting. Just turn your Date and Time to manual and set to the following day, repeat for the 3 steps in the void egg hatch quest/mission. After you’re done you can change it back and you still have the ship without any consequences.

What the heck is it with all the invisible walls? [Bug]

So I jumped back to NMS after small hiatus. Started new game and all.

Now my problem is the invisible walls everywhere.

I tried to go to archeology site but cant. Invisible walls blocking my way. Landed inside the ruins, game "pushed" me out from the site. Later when I returned to my base, same thing, invisible wall surrounding my base. Cant enter there and If I go there wia teleport, game pushes me out from base area.

Can´t even continue the artemis mission because mission site ( the transmission tower ) is surrounded by invisible walls.

I could not play the sandworm expedition because bugs, game kept crashing after 2 minutes of gameplay so I kinda gave up and did not play NMS for a while. Now this is starting to piss me off again, hard.

good fps with lag spikes every 15 or so seconds [Bug]

hello, i encountered a performance issue with the game. can ask here for help to figure this one out? i bought the pc version of nms on steam like six months ago and i encountered this lag spike issue. it was like this: game would be running perfect, smooth 140+ fps but then every so often it would halt for like half a second then resume as normal. it really was unplayable so i then searched around for a solution and tried a few things. with no luck i eventually decided to ditch the game hoping maybe for a patch to come fix it, but alas cause trying the game now the issue still persists and i have not managed to fix it. what i tried over the course of time was:

almost every possible combination of in-game settings including lowering resolution, different difficulty settings, with/without internet

launching nms after disabling very few apps i even had open (discord and hamachi)

leaving the game running for like an hour to maybe properly load the world or something

updating my drivers

disabling steam and nvidia overlays

disabling steam, launching nms without steam

trying various combinations of settings in nvidia control panel

monitoring cpu temps, never went above 70 degrees

moving the game from one ssd to another in case there might be something wrong with one of them

fresh installing nms multiple times

meddling with threads in TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML (it usually resets after launching the game and if im setting it to read only i think it does not even impact the game)

fresh installing windows 10 multiple times

switching various settings on and off in bios

as for my hardware:

cpu is an intel core i5-7600k running at stock 3.8 but usually it turboes itself to 4.0

gpu is gtx 1060 6Gb also running at stock

my motherboard is an asus prime b250-pro

ram is four sticks of ddr4 memory 4 Gb each totaling...

Sean, release the expedition before Elden Ring, I beg you [Meme]

I need something to do while waiting for Elden Ring, so the expedition would be perfect. The problem is... if Hello Games releases the expedition on 25th february or the next week, I won't have enough strenght to leave Elden Ring behind me to open NMS.

So Sean! I beg you! Release it now so I can get that weird looking jetpack!

Small things to make the game better? [Suggestion]

I'm not going to turn this into a massive rant, I'd just like to put the suggestion out there for a few smaller things that probably could be added in a relatively short amount of time, and would really make it a little more player friendly. Multi-Tool Trading and Storage/Displays The ability to trade Multi-Tools between players. The ability to Store/Display Multi-Tools. Ship Trading and Displays Same As Multi-Tool, but Ships. Potted/Hologram Plants Just be able to gather seeds or display plants that have been discovered along the way as decorations at bases or in the freighter base. Pet Displays Similar to Plants, except pets! Mineral Displays See where this is going yet?!

Other than those (admittedly small) things I think the game is great, I'd just like to see some more options to display things that someone is proud of getting that don't involve a planned event or an expedition.

How to keep base dark? [Question]

I’m wondering if there’s a way to keep your base dark. Obviously not using lights inside is a good idea but when you power up a cuboid room or cylindrical structure all the interrupt lights turn on.

I like the feel and the dark/red light look of the unpowered cuboid and glass rooms.

Is there a way to power only specific items even if they’re attached to walls/ceilings/floors that will otherwise light up the actual structure these items are in?

Performance [Question]

I got this game a couple days ago and have been having trouble with framedrops. It doesn't matter what the settings are, I'll get 60+ fps regularly but frequent drops unless I'm in space. I think it's maybe stuff loading in as i move? I'm not sure. I know this game has had some struggles with this so i guess my main question is has this game been optimized enough yet and if so what are some ways i can fix these drops?

Expanding The Base [Suggestion]

I don't even know if I'm allowed to do this, but I'm going to anyway. Because I guarantee I'm not the only one that thinks this way.

Hello Games needs to get rid of the Expanding The Base questline entirely.

First of all, base-building, among many other quests that are forced and thrusted upon the player, bogging down the mission log, should be optional.

Heck, The Atlas is optional? Of course the Artemis questline is the base game. I get that.

But the forced to build a base to progress the story? And, oh it can't be on a freighter because reasons?🥴🤔 It's...how do I put this politely....Bad game design.

I enjoy the gameplay loop. It's fun. Scanning, flying, shooting things, exploring heights and depths (oh my lord do all the exocrafts need to be 10x faster than they are). I do not enjoy sitting through timers just to have a full staff of forgettable npcs especially when I can now unlock everything in the game without need of the specialists.

If Hello Games releases a fix or what have you, let it be this.

Base building shouldn't be forced upon the player (neither should the settlement crap among many other forced missions; and when I say forced I mean, added to your log whether you want them or not)

Exocrafts need to function like real vehicles, not buggies that are sluggish in comparison to my avatar jetting around on foot. And

We should be able to make a base Which You Can Teleport To— on our freighters.

These would improve the game for myself, and I'm sure many other players as well.

The simulation has no gravity. It’s the atmosphere pushing you down. [Discussion]

All planets have the same surface gravity in this game, regardless of size. Large planets and small moons? All the same.

The exception is Low-Atmosphere planets, which have low gravity, regardless of size.

Therefore, it’s the atmosphere pushing down and not the planet’s mass pulling down.

Now, to figure out how the atmosphere sticks to the planet…

Finding a specific planet look? [Question]

Hey folks,

I was wondering if there is a certain way to find an aesthetic when jumping around. My wife and I have spent hours of making warp fuel, reloading and just generally exploring to find anything, but no luck.

When we originally played, we had an Earth-like planet but the update made it from green to purple (when they added exotic planets), then eventually we found a snow planet with deep oceans, stuff we both like.

But... Now her main planet (new characters) is paradise for her, but I get storms. The desync of that takes away the fun. So I've been looking for a desert/sand world with water, cause I'm a huge Egypt fan and would love to have that kind've vibe to it, but have had no luck even finding a proper sand planet.

Alternatively, a planet that has a lot of snow/earthlike in looks (so pine trees) and water, but I don't know how one would look for specific planets.

I had a super cool looking planet in survival but I can't join that on my regular character sadly.

TLDR: Is there a way to find a specific aesthetic? I'm looking for sandy dunes and water, like the Egyptian Nile.

Holo-terminus help [Question]

Okay, so I got to the part of the game where you need to locate a holo-terminus to strengthen your communication with Artemis. I located one just fine by scanning planets, but when I found one it was on a planet with malicious sentinels and I really don’t have good weapons to fight them off AND get up the tower. So I didn’t bother and left. Now I’m in a different system and I can’t scan to find one. What do I do now? Did I screw myself over? Or is there a different way to find one?

Does the game get less stressful? [Question]

Recently installed this as I've seen a ton of compliments and raving reviews about the redemption arc of it and how calming it is to play and I'm really enjoying it currently!

It's gorgeous and flying off of a planet and onto another planet without a massive loading screen is still unreal to me honestly.

But I'm having some issues with the survival elements and how stressful it's getting. It feels like every 2 or 3 minutes I'm having to repower all my life systems, find things to repower them, avoiding dying incase it causes my gear to become more damaged and I then have to scavenge more supplies, being too scared to venture too far away from my camp incase I die trying to make it back etc

Is there a point where it becomes more relaxing in the same vein as Minecraft or is it always a constant resource management type of deal?

Can't find Mod [Question]

Some AMUs and harvesters losing mineral/gases [Bug]

The title says it all. I've placed 5 AMUs on multiple mineral nodes, placed the prerequisite carbon, waited a while to ensure that they actually mine the correct minerals (which they did) then promptly left them for an hour.

Warped to another planet to do the same thing with an oxygen harvester I had set up.

Hour passes and not only have some of the AMUs (3 out of 5) not generated any mineral/gases (the sole harvester did not have anything), they've also consumed the carbon.

This is quite the conundrum because its costing me quite a lot of carbon to get them up and running, this is a new playthrough. I'm not generating thousands of carbon at the moment and buying carbon is not an option.

Feature request: Option to swap starship yaw and roll controls on controller. [Suggestion]

As a flight simulator enthusiast, I would love to have the option to set my No Man's Sky flight controls to something that is familiar, so that I can stop yawing when I want to roll and rolling when I want to yaw.

As a stretch goal to this, I'd also love to have an option to toggle off the "auto-leveling" feature when flying through the atmosphere of a planet.

edit: If this behavior is already achievable, and I just haven't found such a thing yet, feel free to downvote, and I'd also appreciate a comment of how to accomplish it.

How do non-visual mods work? [Question]

When browsing for mods (I look for things that alter visuals such as black space), I see a bunch that completely alter planet generation with terrain changes and more+different plants and animals. They look cool, but I'm not sure how it would work when you make money scanning things? And what about the discovery list when you scan something and it says who discovered it, how does that work if people have completely different planets? What if someone joins your game? Would they see you floating miles high in the sky if you're standing on a mountain they don't have? Can you harvest resources that dont exist for the other person? It seems like cheating.

Nms is on sale at 50% off, an I'm thinking of buying. [Information]

TL;Dr, I was one of the ones that I only saw the controversy at the start of this games lifespan. But people are saying is actually a real game now and it's good. Is it worth it an will it take up all my free time. That would be a good thing.

I basically forgot this game existed until I saw this group and I started following it. Be aware that I am the stingiest guy going, moneywise. I'm a hardcore saver. This is £20 on the PlayStation store at the moment. That's a lot of money to me, but on the line of "if it's worth it, I'll get it". I have plenty of money but the reason I have plenty of money it's because I don't waste it. I am mic shy, I prefer to play solo or with randoms I don't have to interact with too much, have no friends irl that game either. I'm looking for a game to delete vast portions of my life because iv had to leave work due to health reasons. Sitting at home doing nothing all day is driving me insane an there's only so many times I can be replay subnautica lol. I used to play Warframe but that's dead now imo. When you've got everything you can possibly get in the game, there's nothing left to do. When I look at destiny all I see is money money money. I do want to play it but I'm not buying all the expansions. Same with Final Fantasy 14. I burst out laughing when I saw it was subscription. My wallet ran and hid under the coffee table. So can somebody share a video with no spoilers or tell me why this game is worth buying at the moment. What do you do in this game because to my knowledge you just collect resources and move closer to the centre of the universe. I'm looking to play this game like it's a full time job an not getting bored. In a nutshell, explainlikeimfive lol.

Stuck in the quest "A trace of metal" [Bug]

My current task in the quest is to retreive the pristine walker brain. But for some reason after the killing the elite sentinel, I could not find the item. I've travelled around systems since, so I doubt I will be able to travel back to the planet either.

What sucks is that there is no way to reset the mission objective. I'm permanently stuck with "retreive the pristine walker brain" and it even stays over other quest instructions making anomaly missions much harder to complete.

Any ideas in how to reset the quest or find the pristine walker brain through other means?

CPU Usage 100% i5 9600k [Question]

I've been having severe performance issues with No Man's Sky. My specs are an i5 9600k, RTX 2070 Super, and 16gb DDR4. My settings have all been turned down to low, and my resolution is 2560x1440.

My CPU usage is frequently at 100% usage, causing massive frame drops and causing the game to be a slide show, especially when moving. I played this game a year or two ago and never had these issues. I also don't have these issues with other CPU intensive games such as Battlefield, GTA, Company of Heroes, etc.

I've tried verifying the cache, reinstalling, and turning down the settings, all to no avail.

I have looked through the bug reports and I haven't seen a lot of info about this. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue, and has anyone had any luck with any solutions?

Is all non-exotic/royal MTs in sentinel pillars always the S-class normal multitool model, despite what class is shown at the pillar? [Discussion]

In my current system I've located a trading post with an S-class MT and sentinel pillars on four planets. The sentinel pillar MT-class varies; B, A, S, so non-royal models After reloading on the planet, the sentinel pillar shows a planet-specific MT-model When checking the MT-model of the planet at the S-class trading post, it's the same model as at the sentinel pillar (but S-class)

I might be missing something here, but it seems like the sentinel pillars always present the S-class model, if it isn't a C-class exotic/royal.

Please correct me if I've missed something obvious.

No Man's Sky missing .dll [Question]

Ship kits and paint jobs [Discussion]

What’s the one grind that you really dread in this game? [Question]

I’ve been grinding for a freighter (I have an S class and the one I wanted but I want a new one to match the colors I wear and build with) for about 10hrs now, 7 crashes and 63 tries in and I’m over it, but I haven’t given up. The reward makes up for the time spent. I’m just dreading the fact that after this I’m going to have to also farm derelict freighters for all the mods 🥲

What’s the one thing you guys feel like it’s a drag to do every time? 😂

Laylaps prevents sentinels from spawning? [Discussion]

Need help testing a theory.

If I land on a planet with aggressive sentinels, I’ll get attacked by them in no time. That’s to be expected. However, if I activate Laylaps before exiting my ship, I never see an aggressive sentinel. I can run around and mine as many plants, rocks or creatures as my heart desires, and not a single sentinel will investigate. As soon as I dismiss Laylaps, then it goes back to normal, with sentinels attacking on sight.

Has anyone else experienced this? If it’s not a bug on my end, and others are able to do this, it makes Laylaps one of the most powerful pieces of tech in the game. I’d think that Hello Games would have mentioned something about its functionality, but unless I’m blind, I haven’t seen anything about Laylaps holding aggressive sentinels at bay.

Planets not matching listed descriptions+discovered fauna not registering correctly [Bug]

Google has failed me, so I hope you guys might be able to help me here-

Earlier today I discovered a fresh star system after entering the portal during "A Leap in the Dark". The planet I stepped onto (exotic bubbles) contrasted wildly what was shown in the discovery tab listing for the planet (Desolate), including hazards, resources, and fauna. However, mineral and flora entries were correctly being discovered.

To see if it was just a one-off glitch, I flew around and landed on the rest of the planets in the system and scanned some things. The same discovery log discrepancies occurred for the rest of the planets as well. One of the weirdest things I noticed was that the fauna entries I was discovering were not populating the fauna list for the planet I was on, but for one of the other planets in the system instead.

I've heard about things happening to previously discovered planets after major patches, but nothing of this nature- nor to a freshly discovered system. Perhaps the generation engine got its wires crossed, or I just need to come back to it after work and see if things just needed to re-sync?

Anywho, please let me know if you need any more information and thank you for your time fellow travelers!

Damn you Sentinel update, for making me realise I really need health and shield upgrades. [Discussion]

I've played no man's sky for over 150 hours, and have a save with 100 hours in now...

And with this new combat update, I have only just realised how vastly underpowered my Character actually is. Not a single shield upgrade, not a single health upgrade.

However, gives me an excuse to grind the hell outta it again and make my character a sentinel-killing machine, just so I can get ahold of those royal multi-tools.

Really hope Hello Games keep rolling out updates like these, because god they are fantastic.

I can't be the only one in this situation, right? Playing the game mostly peacefully and not pissing off the Sentinels?

I don't understand...galaxies! [Question]

I finally got out of Euclid after about 200 hours of gameplay, speaking to Atlas and resetting the simulation. I avoided getting any spoilers about this, so am only now reading about galaxies, how many there are etc. I went to the Wiki today and found this list of galaxies, and the article implies you can go through the galaxies "in order".

Given I reached a new galaxy by resetting the simulation and choosing a Halcyon (Lush) galaxy, I was dropped at #10 apparently, Eissentam. How would I have gotten to other galaxies without doing it this way? Like, literally warp forever to the Galaxy Core and then poof, I end up in Galaxy #2? And so on?

I imagine there are ways to use portals to speed this up, but then how do you get those portal coordinates, outside of going to a reddit thread with people sharing them. How would I IN GAME--"IN CHARACTER", as it were--learn to travel like this?

Help! Getting into ship kills me! [Bug]

Long story short, I went through a black hole and now whenever I enter my ship I get a black screen, a quote, and a new generation.

Why do you like Earth-like planets? [Discussion]

Just wondering sense I see so many people searching for them and proudly posting pictures when found. Genuinely curious for those folks, why is that your goal? In a game like this where you can find all manner of incredible alien sights and otherworldly planets, why settle for what you already have?

My base is on a planet with purple grass and blue foliage for example. Because that's gorgeous and something I cannot have in reality. So please, I really want to know, no offense intended, but why settle for Earth when you can have something wildly different?

Need Radiant Brain to REPAIR my Minotaur [Question]

I engaged the sentinels with my drone and Minotaur. The Minotaur now needs repairs, and one item needed is a Radiant Brain. I pinned the repair instructions and it says "Each day, Iteration: Tethys can provide a Radiant Brain in exchange for a Walker Brain."

I love permadeath. [Question]

So I just started playing No Man Sky for the 1st time in many many years. I honestly am so surprised how far this game has come. And honestly hello games deserves the biggest round of applause in gaming history. They literally turned this game from a zero to a hero.

Anyways, my question is does anyone else love permadeath in this game? I tried playing on other modes, but I just feel like it's too easy and there is no real consequence. With permanent death I feel as if I think twice before doing everything. Instead of just running off blindly knowing that if I die I will just respawn. It has not only made me feel more connected to the universe and my character. However, it is incredibly immersive playong the game as if I am truly there and not wanting to die trying to survive at every turn.

Does anyone else share this sentiment about permadeath with in no man's sky?

Cheesing Exo Suit Inventory Slots [Information]

Hello!

I'm seeing a bug recently that makes getting all your inventory slots unlocked extremely easy.

Has anyone else found that if you are playing multiplayer, you can:

Find a drop pod or go to a space station exo Suit upgrade station

Load into a friend's game,

Unlock the slot

Save

Exit to to the Menu

Load back into the game

See the exosuit upgrade available again

It feels dirty, but saves a couple million credits of drop pod coordinates and hours of flying around if your not into that.

Game keeps crashing during The Settlers quest.. [Bug]

Would NMS have an update on ships eventually? [Question]

I have been checking in here and there, but I have to ask if any of you have heard anything about this.

I feel that NMS should update so we have more options on spaceship designs etc, as we spend significant time in them. I have this game updated to current version, but have not touched it for awhile due to seeing updates that are not too exciting for me. I just hope that they have plans with spaceships.

Can’t rename anything? Can’t access multiplayer? Here’s how I fixed it. [Bug]

First I’ll go through the symptoms. Then I’ll run through an easy way to completely fix this bug. The fix applies to other platforms as well, but my experience was with Xbox Series S.

Symptoms:

Trying to rename anything doesn’t even bring up a text entry field to type. Clicking on the pencil icon doesnt do anything. SOMETIMES it does, but upon typing up a name and pressing enter, nothing changes. This includes renaming bases, ships, systems, creatures, pretty much anything you should be able to rename.

On certain inventory/misc screens, there will be a little loading wheel in the lower left hand corner. It says “Connecting to multiplayer services” and is stuck in a permanent cycle of constantly trying to connect.

Upon navigating to the multiplayer/network options screen (in game), You’ll get a pop up that says “Can’t connect to multiplayer services.”

And last but surely not least…You wont get achievements for anything. I’ve built and claimed 30 bases and still didnt get the achievement for it.

Okay, so here’s how I solved it: (Steps 1 and 2 MAY be unnecessary.)

Change your Microsoft account password.

Sometimes this wont log you out of your account on your actual console. That’s fine- simply sign out of your Xbox Live account from your console.

Log back in manually on your console. You’ll have to use your new password.

Last step.

Settings Network Settings Advanced Settings Select “Alternate MAC address” Console will restart.

And that’s all! Problem solved completely and immediately!

Is there a surefire way to obtain more? Nothing I have read online has suggested so aside from hopes and prayers for some as a Guild reward.

Some questions about switching galaxies [Question]

Hello fellow travelers. I have a couple questions about quests and swapping galaxies:

If I switch galaxies before finishing the Artemis quest and/or Atlas path, can I still pick them up in subsequent galaxies? Or do I really need to complete them first?

If I find a portal address that takes me to a planet near the center, will that portal address take me to the same general location in subsequent galaxies, or no?

Thanks for any insight!

Unsettled board game [Discussion]

Anyone here also play board games? There's a kickstarter for a game about getting stranded on planets and surviving cooperatively as a group. I'm excited to play it, but the idea just makes me think wouldn't it be cool if there were cooperative one off short encounters in NMS?

I'm thinking things like scripted two or four hour scenarios.

#

Variation in flora fauna and minerals [Suggestion]

Something I've noticed that bugs me a lot is that every plant/rock/creature of the same type uses the same model... This isn't realistic as not every plant and creature of its type looks the same.

If the game would generate at least 3 of each flora, fauna or mineral to use as models it would be more realistic and look more immersive.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

Planet discovery renaming [Suggestion]

Probably suggested to death even without looking because it's very odd that it's not already a thing. But renaming planets after they have uploaded if you were the original uploader should be a thing. Yesterday I found a planet I absolutely love, beautiful flora, cool creatures and everything, in the middle of renaming it had to alt tab really quickly, tabbing back to the game made it submit, and that was it. And what's confusing to me, is that i remember it being a separate process to rename and then upload, so they actually kinda made it worse unintentionally by making the upload part automatic.

#

Why doesn’t this game have a Jump button? [Suggestion]

I’ve been following this game since before next. Been getting hundreds of hours out of it. And it just dawned on me. I would really love a basic little jump button hop around on planets with.

Now I know there’s a jetpack, obviously. But it isn’t nearly as satisfying and immersive as just hopping around, testing out the gravity, makin a cute little happy motion in the nexus, whatever.

Idk I don’t think It’s a big ask for them to make the jetpack like a double tap or to turn it on in the settings with the next big update.

Nothing fancy, just like half a player tall and bounces into the next easily. Like a bunny hop.

Pirates in normal mode? [Question]

My friend just bought me this game for my birthday and I'm loving it (first time I stayed up for over 24 hours in almost 10 years lol because I couldn't put it down). We started new characters to play together and we did Survival mode for that. And I liked having the pirates and encounters while in pulse drive.

But I've started a new character to play alone when he can't play and I started it on Normal, just to see what the differences were like. I have about 16 hours in Normal mode and I haven't seen any pirates or encounters while in pulse drive. Was there a story checkpoint you have to get to before that happens? Or do they just not appear in normal mode? Or is my game bugged...?

Is there a way to make the symbol appear again so i can follow it on screen??

Best GPU Settings? (RTX 3080 i7 CPU, 32 DDR4 RAM 2K monitor) [Question]

Hey fellow Interlopers,

First of all, love this game and community and thanks in advance for the help.

Sorry if you hate me for owning a phat GPU (it came at it's own personal price) but you will perhaps be glad to know my amazing new GPU gives me worse performance than my 5 year old GTX 1080. The main problem I am having is that smooth un-rendered textures are showing up after a short while of play. All NPCS and ground textures look like Toy Story 1. The game fixes after a restart but then the issue returns after a while. I am currently running latest GEFORCE driver and I used the Optimise settings within that for the game but no dice.

Also, I notice that stuff renders very last minute and sometimes I get trees and other terrain doing that weird sinking thing as I'm about to land and every time I go into space there is a jerk and the loading stars are also jerky (always have been). These are more just niggles. I also get a line quartering the planets sometimes.

I basically just want my game to run like it does on the promo trailers that HG puts out. Anyone able to help me will be more valuable to me even than my pet titan worm, Fusy-Fusy.

Upgrading weapon to S-Class [Information]

Just spent a few days trying to earn 50,000 nanites to upgrade my weapon from A-class to S-class. I did not want to use any exploits, so I decided that a reasonably efficient, and fun way was to travel towards the centre of the galaxy while discovering all the species on planets. Depending on the number of species you get from around 750 nanites to 3,000. Quite often, I was able to find them all in a few minutes. Sometimes, it took ages, so I adapted my strategy. I quickly decided to ignore any planets with underground species, they seem to be the hardest to find. I was fine with travelling North or South for specific creatures, but if I was getting nowhere after around half an hour, I'd give up and go elsewhere. In about 10 hours of gameplay, I had travelled 150,000 light years, earned 200 million units, and got my 50k of nanites. So I upgraded my weapon. What a terrible reward! I get no extra credits when I scan animals, and my damage has gone from 6476.8 to 6622.9. That's around 2.5%. I have no regrets, I really enjoyed seeing so many worlds, but I did not realise how small the difference was between A-class and S-class weapons.

After going through the core in Euclid, question. [Question]

The "dynamic base pieces" are sucking the joy out of base building for me. [Suggestion]

I always loved base building in this game, yes the new pieces look great...unless you want to build a multi story building. Whenever you stack a wall on another wall, no matter if there is a floor panel between them, the upper walls will get this extremely ugly, different texture.

It also makes it impossible to build a building on uneven terrain, if you want the building to look believable you would just put walls under it to "connect" it with the ground. Well now you can't do that without making your building an abomination because walls at the same level will be divided into segments that were "dynamically changed" and those that weren't.

Please let us disable this function. Please.

Fired Up NMS for the First Time Since 9/28/2016… [Question]

…and I can’t find the planet that I last visited. The system I’m in has 6 planets, and 1 of them has a name from 2016 that’s in my log. The others are nowhere to be found.

The planet in question that I’m looking for seems to be gone. It appears in the log, has flora and fauna and mineral discoveries, but I can’t find it when I leave the space station. There IS a similar-looking one with a different name and different features. The planet I’m looking for is the only red planet in the system… but this one is red, too.

Is it possible that worlds were deleted or re-named and re-generated since launch? Am I wasting my time driving myself nuts while looking for something that no longer exists?

Lost Full Inventory in Trap Base [Discussion]

Someone invites me in the hub and I felt up to it, they wanted to do a mission and I thought I would help! Fast forward, kill some infestation stuff, go into what I thought was part of the mission and BOOM teleported to homeboys base only to be repeatedly killed until my game crashed.

I had a full inventory of base building supplies and stopped at the hub for recipes and this happened. With nooooo way of getting my stuff back it was a bummer.

I guess this post is to ask; Should I be less trusting of random people in the game and just keep to myself? Is this a normal occurrence or a few idiots that just troll like any other game?

Question in anticipation of the new expedition [Question]

Hey folks, I have a question about doing an expedition with a friend/family member. I have tried to google these questions but I didn’t get a clear answer, or it was from early April of last year, and/or many things I found just got me worried because people were upset that something wasn’t working right.

My wife and I have not played NMS since before Expeditions existed. Expedition 5 will be our first one. I am to understand that we each have to achieve milestones individually but we can play together and support the other in doing them. (Correct me if I’m wrong, but that is not my question)

I’ll break it down:

1.) Can we actually do this, or are we just better off hoping to meet each other in game? The reason I ask is that I have come across many threads where people have started an expedition file and friends have joined it. They play for five hours, but then the next time they try to play and the friends join up, they’re forced to start over and that 5 hours of playing is wasted except the person who “owned” the save file that everybody else joined. That sounds sooooo f’in’ discouraging.

2.) How do we do this? It sounds like one of us starts a new game (new save file), clicks on the expedition tab on the far right, and then the other person does the same thing and then “joins” the other player. Is it as simple as that? And to continue in another session, one person just starts their file and the other person joins them?

3.) My understanding is that even though we become paired as a team, the world will still have other players doing their own thing and we may see them or come across them. If we don’t want to interact with them, we can turn multiplayer off but still work together as a team. Is that correct? I’m not against seeing other players in the world, but I hear it can be hard to build a base due to crowding or the...

Suddenly a Unit billionaire [Information]

I've played this game for a total of 60 hours and I'm enojying it immensely. Today I was trying to solo a Nexus mission where I had to survey a planet were the Sentinels started fighing with me on sight. Lots of running away was had.. I jetted out into space but there I encountered more of them and I lost count of how many ships I shot down and finally I hightailed it out of there. (I abandoned the mission, it got too tedius)

After all this Sentinel fighting I checked my inventory and I saw that had TONS of weird and very expensive stuff in there. I had 70 000 Pugneum, 50 of that purple glass stuff and... 35 of something called "Salvaged AI Valve", worth 50 million Units a piece! Must have been a glitch or something, but I quickly hocked the valves at the nearest space station and now I'm a billionaire. Talk about beginner's luck. ;)

Can't access Fleet Command Room (not the panel) [Question]

I can't delete or move them when I'm in editing mode, nor can I walk up and debrief my fleets when they are done. Would the easiest solution be to buy a new freighter and hope it resets my base?

Expand you base mission. [Question]

So I have been doin the expand your base mission where you have to hire a scientist and armorer and such for your base. I wasn’t thinkin about it while I started. And just started putting them in a little base on my second or third planet. I have no real reason to go back aside from just giving them the bullshit they ask for. And I use my freighter as my main base. Summoning it everywhere I go and pretty much everything I want is on the freighter. If I build the terminals for the overseer scientist and farmer and whatever else on my freighter will they go to the freighter or will I have to hire all new people? Has anyone else tried this?

Supply Depot bug. [Bug]

I found this bug while I was on my Magnetized Ferrite farm. I thought it was a power thing so I upgraded it. Thought it was fine and added more miners bc I wanted more MF quicker. I find out that there's this bug that's never happened before upgrading the farm and I don't know why it's happening. I heard that it's got something to do with different resource farms being on the same power grid, this is the only resource farm I have on this base and the only base on this system.

Trace of Metal Quest Problem [Bug]

While trying to complete the new quest with the sentinels update I’ve ran into a problem and can’t seem to fix it with reloads or going in and out of the anomaly. So I was wondering if anybody else is experiencing the same thing, and if there are any fixes I could try? I’ve tried to look up if this is a known problem and couldn’t find anything so far.

I’m at the part where I need to collect the 3 components from the iterations at the anomaly, but the problem is when I go to where they would normally be they’re gone. With mercury for example, I follow the mission marker to the teleporter room and the marker is just floating over where they should be, with me unable to see or interact with them. Tethys, Polo and Nada are the only npcs I am able to find, so I don’t get why I can’t find the rest. Thanks for any tips

Acclimating to NMS controls after cheating on it and playing another game (the struggle is real) [Discussion]

I got into the Outer Wilds for a bit. Haven't played NMS since December. Became acclimated to the ship controls in Outer Wilds.

And man, getting back into NMS today was a struggle. I kept pressing different keys to do things. On top of that, Outer Wilds has pretty decent starship physics, and I kept trying to emulate those in NMS. I found the wonky physics jarring before, but it's really egregious when you've been used to Outer Wilds.

But by the time Expedition 5 is released, I should have my "sea legs" back and can maneuver in NMS again. But man, it's so hard.

Black Holes still Glitching [Bug]

I just recently tried to jump through a Black Hole, and I was very surprised that this 5-6 year old problem still exists. You go into the black hole and . . . nothing happens. You sail right through like it wasn't there and come out the other side in the same system. No pyrotechnics, no warp splash screen.

Just to test, I tried it on 3 other black holes within 10,000 ly from the galaxy core and none of them work. I realize that if they haven't fixed it by now, they never will, but still, its very disappointing.

is there any reason not to fully upgrade the starting ship instead of exchanging with randoms in a station? [Question]

i just started a new save to go with the latest update. i was rushing through just trying to get to the anomaly so i was pretty much ignoring anything that wasn't 100% necessary to get there. as such, i still have the basic ship and basic multitool. my buddy that i am playing with keeps making fun of me for this, but he has yet to reach the anomaly despite having both an s-tier multitool and ship. that was when i had the thought, you know what, i have never even tried upgrading the basic gear. so now i am commited to maxing out the basic ship at least since i like the way it looks.

i know this process will be incredibly expensive, but what i really want to know is, will this ship realistically be any worse than a randomly spawned s-tier ship?

Old base power issues [Question]

I haven't played in some time, but today logged in to check things out.

My base is still there and intact (though a few trees and bushes were growing inside of it), which is good. However all of the power connections seem to be broken.

I had built it near an EM hotspot some distance, which relayed power to the base. I had a few solar gens too which were no longer hooked up to anything (their wires connected to thin air.)

Did an update change the way power connections work? Can you relay power over a moderate distance, still?

#

Just crossed a thousand hours on my Normal save. Still trying for a "complete" game. [Discussion]

Crazy how time flies, right? Lots accomplished so far, lots more to go.

Finally got all 3 languages learned last night, boy that was tedious. My method was to just cycle through all of the space stations I've visited in the past and talk to everyone. Get about 10 new words per station, warp to the next one, repeat. When you run out of stations, give the game a few days and they'll all teach you new words again.

Still need to learn all of the Atlas words, I'm about half way through the 222 words there. Been a while since I've been to an atlas station...

I have a base set up at the core of about 100 of the 256 galaxies. Really easy process, just time-consuming. Go through the core with a ship and multi-tool that you don't have any tech installed on, find a portal, enter the first glyph for each spot, it teleports you to the core of the galaxy. Set up a base, jump through, repeat. Nobody ever really posts coordinates outside of the first 15 or so (and #256 Odyalutai) so I kind of lost motivation to keep setting up the bases, but I'd like to get to all 256 eventually.

Obviously completed all missions, milestones, expeditions, Twitch rewards, and other surface accomplishments like that. However I've really slacked on my quicksilver missions and am still missing a boat load of those unlocks from the anomaly. Probably the largest hill I still have left to climb since QS is so slow to acquire. Not sure I'll ever unlock them all even though I'd love to.

I have most of the titles unlocked (https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Player_Titles) I think last time I checked I'm missing most of the QS ones and a random couple other ones. Need to go finish that list here shortly.

Call me a miner... Now what? [Question]

So I discovered an S-Class gold mine (ha ha!) near a B-Class energy source, ~320 units away. Close enough for me to run power to the mining facility where I plopped down a base. I am now a miner!!

Surprisingly, the base allowed me to build the Electromagnetic Generators, even though they were ~320 units away from where my base computer is located (which is by the S-Class gold mine).

From what I can tell from reddit, my S-Class gold mine will last indefinitely. It also generates gold while I am not in the game. Awesome. But that doesn't make sense. I would assume that if I overmine the source, and I should reach a point where there's no more gold.

So my questions are these: I am super happy that I can run power from a source so far away, but would love to know if building something that far away (~320 units, I don't remember exactly how far) is normally within the normal limits of a base?? And if it is, what are the actual limits for a base? Is it true that the mine will never run out of gold? Since my storage deposits get filled up when I am away from the game, do the miners still extract gold after filling up the storage facilities? If they do continue to mine gold, do they quickly fill up the storage devices when I empty them, or does everything just reset from zero? How can I ever handle so much gold? I have just 4 or 5 miners, and it is producing almost 2,000 units of gold an hour. What in the world do I do with all of that gold?? Do people just let their mine extractors pause, taking gold (or whatever they're mining) as they need it, knowing that it will be replaced within a few hours?

Thank you!

Finding ships [Question]

Problem is, there are a lot of giant trees that can't be blasted with my mining laser on the site...and one of them is smack dab in the middle of my office, mostly blocking my path to the overseer terminal. Silly me, I thought the finished building would remove that part of the trunk.

Trying to free the Sentry from the hivemind, destroyed the towers, but every time I get close it tells me I've received navigational data which I can't see anywhere. I keep scanning the target, it keeps giving me the co-ordinates for the console (towers destroyed already) but then I get close and it vanishes. The terminal says that it's secured and I can only leave. Can't seem to reset the mission, no matter where I am.

Materials disappearing from refiners in freighter [Question]

I finally got a freighter (somehow lost the opportunity for the free one) and started Chlorine duplication. I was teleporting between stations to find some more Oxygen and called my freighter into a different system and found that there was nothing in my refiners. Later, I just moved the freighter within the same system and had it happen again. Is this supposed to happen or am I bugged?

Any creature that defends you? [Question]

Was wondering if there’s any creatures in the game that will fight your corner. I’ve found the next best thing in that giant fly which you can go airborne with. It comes in really handy when being attacked by sentinels & you need to escape them.

Multiplayer help needed [Question]

Hi, So I'm a day one player who's never touched multiplayer because I never saw the appeal of playing this game with strangers. A friend has picked up the game and I decided to play with him. We're playing permadeath and every time I save it says "progress saved but not location". Can someone ELI5 how we can play together and build bases together more consistently? I assume when I start the game up I will not be able to keep building my base with him as I will be back on my first home planet (he died there and started a new game).

Any other multiplayer tips would be dope as well!

technology question [Question]

Thanks.

Spurn direction and explore freely (Suggestion / Discussion) [Suggestion]

As much as I enjoy the game, I wish there was a option when you initially spawn on that first planet, to just bump the main mission as a whole and do your own thing.

I know you can to a degree, recently went through on Permadeath and decided I wanted nothing to do with the starter ship so I just ran around until I happened upon a trading post and got the money to buy a ship outright instead.

But the whole time I was doing that, I was wishing that I could just skip the missions altogether and build a base or start working on a refinery.

My suggestion would be to give the option to skip the main missions (with the option to pick them up later if wanted) and have you do your own thing, with a marker pointing to your ship should you choose to use it. Minor settlements, space stations and trading posts could sell the blueprints for the technology you would get through the main missions for nanites, and once you've gotten your hyperdrive, an event could happen where you stumble upon the Anomaly when entering a new system, much how you currently "stumble upon" a freighter after a couple of jumps.

When you get to the Anomaly, if you want, you could have the story pick up from there, or you could choose to forgo it still and just explore without having the blueprints locked behind the missions.

I would of course include a warning of some sort when choosing to skip the early missions for newer players so thy know what they are getting themselves into.

Regarding the new Multi Tool upgrades. [Discussion]

Is it just me, or does it seem that despite all the new installable weapon tech, and while not receiving any actually new mods specifically for it, the Scatter Blaster still outperforms all other weapons by a WIDE margin?

The new stun effects are nice for pinning enemies down and all, but why bother when the Scatter Blaster can drop all the drone sentinels in just 2 or 3 shots?

Expeditions? [Question]

I'm on the PS4 and I'm worried about missing the next expedition. Apparently there was one just a few months ago and I missed it however I have no idea what to even look for, and a Google search says it's as simple as starting a new game. However, I don't even know how it shows up on the load screen. I know I was playing nearly constantly when the last one was released. Trying to look for an image of how that looks has proven unfruitful. Any help would be appreciated.

No Man's Sky's "cartoony" art style will be it's greatest asset when it arrives on the Nintendo Switch [Discussion]

I've seen the common criticism, as I'm sure many of you have, from players of other space games that they would try NMS, but it's too "cartoony" looking. Now, I'm not hating on any other gamer crowd, I respect that they have a style of game they like to play, and that's fine.

However, with the audience on the Switch, I believe that will be the opposite scenario. A somewhat younger audience, for sure, but many of them are adults that like a more "cartoony" style, myself included. These people will LOVE NMS, I remember when I first saw it on Nintendo Direct and I was like "this fits so well with all of the other games featured here! It's going to be awesome!"

Anyway, just something I felt like expressing. Welcome to all of our new Nintendo players! :)

(Shower thought) What if NMS existed irl [Discussion]

Imagine some random Gek lands on planet Earth in the middle of Africa and starts scanning life forms, then proceeds to mercilessly shoot up every endangered species in the surrounding area. Relations with the humans would drop to like -1,000

Lost a friend in space [Discussion]

Did they change the method to upgrade inventory slots in the living ship? [Question]

Hi everyone. A few days ago, I got myself a new living ship. Then I went out to find myself a nice s class freighter. Because the actuall one I had was only used for inventory slots of the first living ship. Now I found this nice freighter. I changed into my second living ship, where I had just 2 missing inventory slots. I upgraded the freighter, but I the 2 missing inventory slots are still missing.

Did they also change the way to add inventory slots to a living ship?

Photo quests on Xbox [Question]

How do you complete them? Because taking a screenshot doesn’t seem to work I’m asking this because one of the expedition quests is take a photo of your companion

VR photo mode? [Question]

How on Euclid do I get to complete the milestones for picture taking?? Love the game, but as I never take pictures I've not come across this issue (if it's something simple I may start doing more photos) but camera mode in VR is just horrendous!

On Xbox some guy doing the expedition is naming planet's as a tribute to his family member who passed [Information]

It's honestly really heartwarming. I'm new to the game so I'm not sure if you all see the same names on PC as we do on xbox, but I've been doing the expedition all day and someone named "craig_mark" has been flying around and naming planets for Sean Mark.

In the first system I found a planet called In Memory of Sean Mark" and now on the trail of the Rendezvous 2, I stopped to make my first base and farm some stuff and I landed on a planet named "Sean Mark loved animals, especially Cats."

I'm going to be now scanning planets in each system to see if I can get more details about Sean. I don't know if this is a common occurrence but it made me miss my dad and felt like I was helping this person craig find some closure by just following his trail.

I'm more intrigued by this than the exhibition tbqh.

Sentinel Update [Question]

Ok I started over the game due the huge amount of bugs that happened (few glitches with teleporter yet), so I just received my very first settlement. So far haven't triggered the sentry quest, anyone knows when it starts? My settlement is still C class and just finished clearing the debt.

Possible bug? [Bug]

Every time I try and get in my ship to fly away I die automatically and it says it's due to life support failure. Can't get off planet tried using telleporter and it got me moved but I still can't get in my ship without death.

I seem to be complaining a lot today [Discussion]

Why is getting stuck in random objects endemic to this game? The game it’s self is so great but I’m doing the new expedition and somehow got stuck when taking off from the rendezvous 1 building. I had to reload the auto save because I obviously wasn’t expecting to glitch and get stuck inside a massive sphere.

I hadn’t claimed the rewards for getting the companion to lay an egg and no I need to wait a whole 24 hours before they can lay another whilst the egg is still in my inventory 💀 so I’m unable to progress with the expedition any further

Just why?
