Am I the only one suddenly having issues launching this game via Steam? Cloud sync issue [Question]

I have about 600 hours of game time on NMS and this is the first time I've ever encountered not being able to launch the game. Clean install of Windows 11, clean Steam installation, verified game cache, the works.. Game worked fine about a month and a half ago (I was away from home since then, so computer was unused).

Whenever I try to launch it, Steam hangs at 'synchronizing cloud sync', even when I disable cloud sync in the game's options... Have tried deleting my local save files, they get redownloaded again, but Steam just won't move past the 'synchronizing cloud sync' issue. Other Steam games I've tried seem to work fine.

A cursory google search on reddit and the steam community forums came up with a few results of people being unable to launch certain games during the past couple of hours, but that's it. Weird.

I think I lost my saved progress from the last time I played [Bug]

The last time I am played the game was around July, 26, 2021. I built a massive base on a snow planet, expanded my mines significantly, added a lot of new stuff on my freighter, got an s class experimental multi tool, made a large farm and did a lot of derelict freighter hunts unlocking all the derelict prefabs.

So about a week ago I start playing the game again but I do the latest expedition, play it, and finish it.

Then I hop back on my main save and it looks like all the progress I've had since July of last year were gone for some reason. I have no idea what happened. My experimental multi tool is gone and I don't see any derelict pre fab build units on my build menu. But for some reason I did get access back to all the quicksilver items I had purchased.

I play on steam can anyone help.

Minotaur AI [Question]

So there are two parts that give the Minotaur AI capabilities, one is the story item (Sentinel Hardframe Body) and then there is one you can install even before that, the Minotaur AI Pilot. When put next to each other they get a dark blue/greyish border, so there does seem to be some kind of synergy. Does anybody know if the Minotaur does indeed get something from having both parts installed, or could i just delete one of those?

3/1 Vy'keen with blue/yellow S rifle at station [Screenshot]

Stumbled upon this while grabbing a re-latticed arc crystal to fill my catalogue back in after some things got reset because no reason. Planets are yours to explore. Glad portal coordinates are available in stations so I can get back to questing while waiting for my settlement to build!

Can't delete angled windows. [Question]

I did some research and was surprised I didn't find anyone with that problem. I wanted to delete an angled window I placed on a square room but I can't seem to be able to select only the window and end up deleting the entire room instead.

Is that a bug? Is there some way to select only that particular window?

Thank you :)

My resolution is messed up. Please help. [Bug]

So after purchasing a new monitor and deciding to play this game a year later, for some reason the resolution isn't scaling correctly. I'm using a 1440p monitor but the resolution of the game is in 1080p, even though 1440p is selected. Changing between 1080p and 1440p changes nothing in the game.

This means that all of the in game menus are scaled incorrectly and thus are not displaying right on my screen. Changing the resolution scaling does nothing. Changing the HUD scaling does nothing.

I'm using an Nvidia 1660 TI, all drivers are updated, no settings for this game have been added/changed in either the nvidia control panel or geforce experience, and reinstalling the game through Steam still does nothing.

I guess I'm just doomed to never play this game again on my current PC? I can't find any solution to this after scouring the internet.

A Trace of Metal help [Question]

So I am on the part of the questline for the Minotaur where you have to get the Pristine Walker Brain. I didn't know I needed the plasma blaster, or whatever it is, until I had already gone to the location that the quest sends you.

Since I have installed the proper equipment I have fought the sentinels and killed 2 Walkers. Neither have yielded a Pristine Walker Brain. Now since I have been to the location the quest sends you to, I cannot find that location. I managed to alert a Walker by killing sentinels at a resource depot, and a Walker that was guarding a Sentinel Nest.

Is there any way I can get one? Can I reset the quest?

base beneath base layer?? [Discussion]

I have 2 bases. I'm trying to do the "base computer archives" mission, but the base computer it sends me is somehow now underneath the name layer of the planet I but lt it is. I can't get deep enough with the terrain manipulator to get to the location marker. Is there any way to get around this problem? I can't get to the base to delete it. And I can't seem to abandon the mission.

How do I make money fast and if you can are there any other tips you would like to give. Btw don’t have internet at home

My home planet "Portal Observation Station". [Screenshot]

It's in the Hilbert Galaxy but the idea was that I'd give the base a name that would clue someone flying by that there was an inter-planetary portal nearby. Don't think it's cool to build right next to the portal so I built it on a cliff face in site of it but not too far away ("Observation Station"). Added a refiner and some vertical planters for an easy carbon source, other raw materials are plentiful and nearby (it's a paradise planet). While it's nothing like some of the epic builds I've seen others do, hopefully it might guide a new player to their first portal and maybe be of some use. I've got four bases on this planet. My main (and reasonably big) compound on a lake. A small "Oceanic Research Station", a runaway mould farm (near the main compound), and this "Portal Observation Station".

Advice wanted: Has anyone regretting scrapping their Living Ship? [Discussion]

I''m a day-one non stop player, I like to do everything and have all the things.

Did my Living Ship when it released, maxed it out.... never use it. My squadron of Starships is rather limited for a couple of reasons, there are three ships I never want to give up:

• My very first 48-slotter from 1.0, back when you would grind for more slots by constantly swapping for a new crashed ship and they'd slowly increase in size each time. It's also C-Class due to the way classes were introduced at the time, so it's a pretty rare specimen on console - 48 Slot C-Class is impossible with existing game mechanics.

• My Next-era S Class Figher. There was a tech dupe glitch at the time and I decided to very mildly tinker with it by doubling up the Photon Cannons. Damage output is obscene. I also like the look as well as having a long history with it, so it's a keeper.

• My main ship now is an S Explorer, I've travelled hundreds of hours and millions of LY in it and it got a really nice upgrade with the Explorer revamp.

That gives me 3 slots left, and really I always want to keep one free (in case I see something I really, really gotta have).

So of my remaining three I have a really cool-looking S-Class 48 Hauler that bought just to tick off the Player Title, an Exotic which I normally don't care for but they're nice to have for Galaxy Core Jumping, and my Living Ship, which I just don't care for at all. I have spare void eggs in storage.

After all this text.... is there any good reason to hang on to it? Has anyone trashed a Living Ship and wished they hadn't?

How is there still no HOTAS and TRACK IR support??? [Question]

Hello Games, you have such a great game going. So much progress. And we get it. It is not meant to be a sim. But that doesn't mean that flying isn't a big part of it, and that it wouldn't be so much more enjoyable to fly with a HOTAS.

Common, the year is 2022, so many ppl nowadays have a HOTAS, at least a basic one, I mean, I have over 5 different HOTAS lying around, with the recent revival of MSFS even more folks are getting joysticks. It is unfathomable to me, how the game just refuses to offer joystick support.

And the other thing is TRACK IR. It is literally dropping in a lua, and poof, there you go. You managed track IR support, how can track IR still not be a thing?

For the love of god, please give us HOTAS and Track IR support, and ofc, support for other headtracking devices.

Thank you!

Who knew making a farm would take so much time and effort. [Build]

I had previously made a farm in a system to have everything for about 80 stasis devices but I didn’t have a farm for carbon or cobalt. Plus the system was discovered by somebody else already and it bugged me so I went out to find another system with everything I needed and wanted. Which took forever by itself then actually setting everything back up is a lot more complex and time consuming than I remember. But hey once I’m done I’ll open up shop and let people come collect what they need or want and even make bases in the system so it’s not so lonely.

Can't teleport between base and other systems' space stations? [Question]

Hey guys, relatively new player here, I'm trying to complete the "awakenings" mission where you have to use the warp drive to travel through a bunch of systems to reach a specific point. However, obviously I can't do this all in one go, so I was hoping that I could teleport between space stations in different systems once I've set foot in them/used their teleporters. I have a base teleport modulus in my base I've set foot in all the bases I intend to teleport to Even if I have both of the previous criteria, I can only teleport between my base and the space station in my base's system. Is this a bug or do I need help?

Is my Trace Of Metal bugged? [Question]

I've got the flare and I'm at my settlement. When I try to 'field test' my drone I hear a robotic voice make a noise that sounds like a two syllable word then nothing happens and the flare still says it's 'off'.

Is there somewhere specific in my settlement I'm supposed to be standing when I do this? Do I need to wait till sentinel awareness of my settlement is at 100%? right now It's only at 28%.

Am I missing something or is my mission bugged?

Google has been effing useless in trying to find an answer to this. This is actually the first time I recall ever coming to Reddit for help in the year or so that I've been on here. That's how frustrated I am. AAARRRGH!!

Stopped playing 4 years ago, game has some download to do but before I got some question about it [Question]

Hi guys, as the title says I tried no man's sky again after some time, I think my game is like when I bought more or less

for example I saw that there's no plutonium on new updates (the red spiky rock) or you don't use some minerals for things like fuel which I still do on my new gameplay

I knew there has been massive changes but first got some question that maybe someone can help me with

  1. I don't play online unfortunately but the new updates are free? maybe not everything but maybe the basic one? Like 3rd person, machine to walk on the planet yada yada

  2. I'm trying to find the hyper something, I know the game doesn't actually have a story but does it have a finale?

I don't plan to buy ps plus so atleast if point 1 is a yes then I might keep playing, already playing a sandbox alone gets a bit boring so I hope atleast something new and basic (from what I've seen) like machines to walk on the planet, 3rd person and new weapons and gadget it will make it much better

thx in advance

Worst permadeath death experiences - Any deaths that just left you staring blankly? [Discussion]

As the title says I’m looking for stories (and some may hurt…) about either epic or epically dumb ways you’ve died in a Permadeath save?

Obviously this is geared towards NMS (other stories aren’t discouraged!) since I almost died 75 hours into a Permadeath run because I thought I could go stretch my legs and get some food while comfortably at the trading post under cover. Unfortunately I must have wandered a bit too far out into the elements and as I came back to the screen; I was seconds away from losing 75 hours and I was furious with myself.

Stuff in my inventory after being AFK for a few mins [Question]

Cannot Find Save Point Blueprint [FIXED] - THANK YOU [Answered]

Hello Guys! I've been playing No Mans Sky for a while and never figured out how to get the save point! This is essential for freighter internal construction as well as other things. I spent about an hour researching and finally cracked the enigma! Heres the step by step process on how to get it done.

Step 1#: Hit ESCAPE button on your keyboard and look at your missions. You are looking for the following: Base Computer Archives.

You probably never finished the missions (Build Storage Container/Crate)

You must build that and then give the base computer sometime to spit out the next quest for the SAVE Point.

The order of unlocks that the base computer gives is as follows:

Blueprints [or a B-Class Life support module if you already have the blueprint]

+Storage Container [0]

+Save Point

+Teleport Receiver

+Neural Stimulator

+Advanced Mining Laser

+Appearance Modifier

+Medium Refiner

+Oxygen Harvester

+Roamer Geobay

+Landing Pad

I hope this helps :)

Someone random made me get 516 MIL units early game 6h in, what do i do now? [Discussion]

Hello!

Backstory: So i went to the anomaly or whats it called and yoy kbow checking what i want to craft next time (with 1,5 mil in the bank) After i've been there i went to my ship and walked around and someone walked up to me and first dropped some trash but then a 15 mil worth thing, but i got shocked when i found that he had also dropped me 5 thing worth 50 mil each. But the crazy part was when i wen to the trade terminal on a station to sell it said i had 10 of them even if i had 5 in my inventory so it turned you to sell for 500M +15M.

What do i do?: So now i'ce also made a chlorine farm but i think 500M is pretty much right and ive also got a new ship but what can i possibly spend my money on? Should i relax and do the story mission? I would like some tips and fun things to do or challenges for my self to try make.

Theoretical "Best" Starship [Discussion]

It's easy to get lost while wiki-diving, so I figured I'd ask the experts here at /r/NoMansSkyTheGame. Now, it's worth keeping in mind, this is for fun, no logistical limitations of obtaining it in game, and of course, cost is no concern.

So, with that in mind, which ship would you choose? Imagine the experience of actually being the player character. Which would be the best mix between combat, storage, travel, and hey, why not how comfortable it'd be? With comfort in mind (consider it a house rule), anything "living ship" related is banned. I think most of us would struggle sleeping at night knowing they're inside a living being more or less.

So, before absolutely getting lost in wiki-diving, I found three good candidates to look into. With great stats, storage, and tech slots. First, Totori's Final Gambit second, Honmatan OQ5 third, Makunis's Prime Peacemaker. I was tempted to go with the Golden Vector instead of Makunis's Prime Peacemaker, but the extra storage (29 vs 38), and lack of obnoxious golden sheen & golden trail was a big benefit... I mean, talk about failing to stay under the radar, like imagine putting an anime decal on a spaceship, some things just aren't meant to be.

If anyone has any better ships in mind, please let me know, and I'd love to hear how you'd utilize each and every tech slot of the ships I've mentioned so far!

Idea: Wire Bundle and Bundle Splitters [Suggestion]

Is this a good idea?

What if the game had Wire Bundles and Bundle Spillters.

With the Wire Bundle, you could have all Wire types in one cable with the cost of a max capacity. E.g. can only send 150kPs.

The Bundle Splitter would be needed to split/combine each cable to/from the Bundle.

For things like the Supply Depot, (which needs more than one cable type) then you would be able to use the Wire Bundle on it making it so you have one cable for one input.

The cost of the cable could be say; 10 Magnitised Ferrite Dust, 15 Ionised Cobalt and 10 Copper. This is so it's not cheap.

The Length could be around 2/3 or 3/4 of a Cable.

Also it could have collision with Terrain cause the mass of cables.

Also I had another idea while typing, maybe you could have it collide with everything BUT add a Cable called a Phaser Extension so it can go through things with 30% extra of the Wire Bundles Limitations.

Best All-Round Weapon [Discussion]

What the title says really, taking on Sentinels.

It's probably silly but it annoys me that I can't change the weapon mode order on the Multi-Tool. So I'm just wanting opinions on the 'best' all-round weapon mode.

That way I can just cycle through the Mining Beam, Terrain Manipulator, and "insert weapon name*

Using the Forcefield and Plasma as secondary, if that helps determine things.

Discussion: Terraforming Cannon [Discussion]

Apologies if this has been discussed before.

Was thinking how much I would like to see something like this.

It would be a tool available for the highest tier of freighters. Park your capital ship in orbit above a planet or moon that has not been discovered yet. Would need to stay in place above the planet for three in game days.

After that it keeps the planet's dimensions but rerolls to the type that you selected. Can't be too picky obviously but being able to select one of the possible planet types and just letting it reroll the spawn with that parameter. Star type willing.

I would love to be able to take a tiny/gigantic dead world/moon and reroll it verdant or anything else. Or, conversely, to kill a living world.

Change Default Colors When Building [Question]

Is there a way to change the default color of the item I'm about to build? Currently want to change timber to default to Mahogany and I keep having to select it each time I change the item. I frequently forget to do so and have to redo my build.

How to find good planet for base? [Question]

I have searched for a while looking for a good planet to build my base on but I can’t decide which one to choose.

Is there a way to get more details on the planets in systems, like population, planet type that sort of thing? Because up until now I’ve just randomly jumped from system to system hoping I’ll get lucky.

I’m back! [Information]

Hey all, can’t believe this but hear me out. I stopped playing NMS after wiping my PC and finding out I had backed up the save file incorrectly through steam by actually just creating a copy of the game and not the save files. I had a 100 hour play through which also didn’t appear on steam cloud. I was so gutted to lose my awesome paradise planet and settlement that I quit the game. After seeing all the awesome posts on this page recently I couldn’t resist coming back and starting over this evening. However, I downloaded the game and found my save file sat there waiting for me! I don’t know what miracle this is but I am over the moon (and beyond).

Expedition 5 woes: swamp planet and beetles [Discussion]

I've spent twice as long on this expedition than the last one., because apparently beetles and swamp planets simply don't exist.

To make matters worse, after trawling through about a dozen posts of helpful people saying what planets they found things on and seeing their galaxy maps, cross-referencing with my own in-game one shows something that just destroys all hope I have for finishing this outside of dumb luck.

No-ones star systems are named the same as the ones I've visited for the expedition. People keep saying "start at RV 3 and on the way to RV 4 find this system", but even their RV planets have different names to mine or aren't in my "visited systems" list under the same names.

Feels like I'm doomed to roam space for the next three weeks and just hope really really hard that I come across a swamp planet and somewhere with beetles.

do I really WANT to upgrade my Minotaur? [Question]

Hear me out cuz I'm sure it's a "duh" question.

I play NMS in VR and as a result, I'm not a fan of derelict freighters, too spooky. I did it once on Halloween with buddies cuz it seemed the right time and it was not too freaky but definitely not something I "want" to do on my own.

From what I hear, if you attach all the mech upgrades to your Minotaur as part of the new story, it will make your walker truly bad-ass BUT the only way to fix any of his damaged parts is with a Repair Kit. And unless those are still retrievable via sending frigates out on missions, the only way to craft Repair Kits is with Basalt.

And now the reason I ask the question .... Basalt is only available on derelict freighters.

So if I chose not to change my Minotaur, does he do a reasonable amount of damage before you install the new mech weapons? It looks like he doesn't need to be repaired and given Repair Kits might only be an option if I go aboard derelict freighters, I'm thinking of avoiding the upgrade path.

Can someone advise me here?

Kill predators is the stupidest one when there are hardly ever any actual predators. I've been trying to find predators for 3 hours now and can't find one and when I abandon the mission it doesn't give me a new one.

Do you think it's better to wait until no man's sky be completed ? [Discussion]

My point is, every time the game gets an update, they change significantly aspects of the game, that changes the way you play, so if you play after an update, you get a better experience, for example, the combat uptade, that changes the combat felling and flow.

It's different from a dlc or expansion, like the Witcher blood and wine, that adds a new campaign, but it doesn't change the base game, in no mans sky, they always change that.

So right now I'm just waiting until the game gets finished, because I'm afraid of playing the game, finishing it, and them when I don't want to play it no more, it gets an update that changes things from the base.

Do some of you guys think like that ?

ps: sorry for any english mistakes.

Just started! How am I doing? [Discussion]

Just started NMS a couple of days ago. I’ve got a couple of questions I’m hoping somebody can help with!

So I am playing the ‘normal’ game. I understand I can do pretty much what I like, but the game is pushing me along a storyline relating to ‘Artemis’ and all that stuff.

So on my home planet(?) base, I’ve built a little wooden hut. But as far as I can tell, I only use this for shelter and to replenish my hazard protection when it’s low. But as I have moved along a bit, I now have a shiny new cylindrical base which I’ve built near my wooden hut. Do these serve the same purpose?

By my wooden hut, I have the power generator thing with wires connecting to my blue portal thingy (sorry forgot the names!) and construction terminals, base computer and a storage unit and whatnot. Then next to the cylindrical base I have another construction thing and a science thing and have a Gek ‘overseer’ - now hunting for a Korvax scientists to work there.

I’ve got around 2 million credits and a few hundred nanites.

I’ve upgrade my multi tool to get the Bolster. And have the hyperdrive etc, though it’s a pain making the fuel for it ha.

Should I be just pushing ahead on this path? With things like Exocraft, combat and buying bigger/better ships follow in good time, or should I seek these out?

What’s the best way to increase storage slots on the suit/ship? This seems to be my biggest issue at the moment. I’ve just got too much stuff!

Also, if anyone can help with this Korvax scientist…. The HUD directs me to a Space Station to hire one, but when I get there, I can’t find anyone to hire… not sure if I’m doing something wrong?

Having and issue with short range teleporters [Question]

Sometimes when I bring people to my base everything is all hooked up and powered like it’s supposed to be, but for them everything is built except for teleport cables and wiring. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Base is uploaded to servers, I invite them to my game and bring them to my system through the anomaly.

Bugged Starbirth strikes again [Bug]

Ok, I hate this quest. Beyond the awful design it has, I'm stuck with a bug that seems to have no way out.

I'm at the "Follow the call of the Void Egg" segment, and the quest objective is stuck in Gods know which system deep in the galaxy.

Everything I tried on my own or looking at past threads of other players with the same bug led to no result. The quest cannot be abandoned. NMS save editor doesn't work for me because I can't have nice things. Following the trail to the unknown target system for two hours resulted in a mere total waste of time, the path goes on for who knows how long. Jumping from system to system: no target reset. Entering multiple black holes: no target reset. Placing the egg in a refiner: no target reset. Discarding the egg (which resulted in me getting it again automatically): no target reset. Entering Anomaly, space stations, Atlas stations, doing other quests, waiting a few days: no target reset.

What. The. Hello Games. Am. I. Supposed. To. Do.

Are old Expeditions ever coming back again? [Question]

Was just curious as I’m awful at getting expeditions fully completed before they end. I don’t have Twitter so I don’t know if it was ever mentioned or anyone ever confirmed anything.

I know that they gave some time to players to go back and try old expeditions for a short time but was wondering if anyone may know if it was ever confirmed that those revisits to old expeditions was just a one time thing? Or if Hello Games ever toyed with the idea of implementing some sort of “legacy” expeditions where we would be able to ever access old expeditions at our own pace?

Base Archive Mission Stuck [Bug]

New Mission Idea [Discussion]

I would love it if Hello Games released an update similar to Starbirth but instead of building a living ship, you’d build a regular ship. Like, you’d find a ship computer or something and could choose if you wanted to build a shuttle, hauler, fighter, or explore and then could customize everything. I’d probably make it a one time thing though so the thrill of hunting for new ships wouldn’t be lost.

I think something is wrong… [Question]

Kind of an old timer on the game, we’ll versed anyways, and I came across an issue I can’t seem to figure out.

When I go to the anomaly, Helios and the other guy who takes achievements, both are offline. They’re “so tired” or all come back another time.

All my network stuff is online, but matchmaking fails, and nobody else is on the anomaly.

Has anyone encountered this before? Is there a setting I’m missing, or has my save file been corrupted?

I haven’t tried loading any other saves yet, maybe I should try that first…

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know it's technically a space sim as opposed to regular sci-fi but is there any kind of explanation for the traveler we play as ? Why did they wake up on a planet? What happened to the ship ?

How do I find good freighters?? [Question]

I somewhat understand the techique and how to get an S class and whatever, but my main issue is i genuinely can't find a system with a good freighter.

I have been to countless three star systems and every single one has either a freighter with the circle thing on the end, or the rectangular ones with the spike on the bottom. They've also been C class 90% of the time. B class the other 10%.

Am i doing something wrong?? Even if I'm not following the right S class steps, how come every system, ESPECIALLY every 3 star system is just the exact same model again and again? They're always C class.

If this is normal then I'll take the embarrassment but i would've figured with the amount of warping I've done i should've atleast found one that wasn't a rectangle.

#

Quality of Life multiplayer UPDATE [Suggestion]

It would be really awesome to see the next major update focused on all things multiplayer. Im so into the game but I've noticed the more you play with friends, the buggier it gets (especially when base building).

Ive stopped playing NMS the past 2 weeks from how nerve racking its been with these multiplayer bugs.

I recall finding a reddit post explaining how terrains get messed up because of overlapping save files. So what seemed to fixed that issue for me was the following:

hosting a fire team

making sure im always the host (especially when im the one making changes to my friends base terrain)

-starting bases together while in the same fireteam

if my friend sees messed up terrain on their end, ill use the restore tool to rebuild and edit terrain while they're around seeing the changes.

have my friend upload the base on terrain change or if added new parts to base.

Now I recently encountered an issue where my ps4 would stutter freeze upon entering my friend's base and continue todo so on foot from time to time. The stutter freeze issues started happening after my friend played alone and made tons of changes to their settlement.

Also the interesting part is that the stutters only happens to a person thats not the host. And only when at the base. This seems like corrupt data to me....

How many of you settle on planets that aren't Paradise Planets? [Question]

Though I have a pretty legit system for finding Paradise Planets, I can't seem to find one that checks all of my boxes. While this is great for killing time, I'm really looking for a permanent home (one that I discover).

How many of you have settled on a planet with storms / hazards because it checked every other box for you?

For reference, my ideal world would be a Paradise Planet with glowing grass at night, earth-like trees, and no ground fauna (I always get the chills when seeing the giant grasshopper / cross-bread trex / giant worm fauna).

I've found one planet that checks all boxes except for the glowing grass and another that checks all boxes except for the ground fauna. I'm about 400 hours in... Am I asking too much of RNGesus?

update idea: fractions [Suggestion]

I have an idea for an update where you can switch out your crew you will have 3 fractions to choose from you would have regular so the ones that we have now and bounty hunters as well as pirates

Pirates: when you would choose the pirates you would get more loot from killing random ships and just stealing stuff in general your crew would also help you against sentinels you would no longer get attacked by pirates but rather bounty hunters your fregatte missions would be switched out with missions where they steal stuff these missions would increase your bounty your regular missions would be switched out with stealing you can also no longer get missions from the space station and you have to build a room in your frighter for missions every species hates you you can now also steal minerals but that greatly increases your bounty the more bounty you have the more often and stronger you will get attacked by bounty hunters you can pay your bounty off like red dead redemption

Bounty hunters would be the same but everyone likes you you get no items from killing random ships and from attacking freighters and you will get more notifications about fleeing pirates you would also have infamy and that will increase the amount of time you will get attacked by pirates and that will give you better missions

Ps: sorry for my bad english and also this is just some shit that was roaming around in my brain so i know this would probably never happen and doesnt fit into the game

Does anyone else just not care about faction reputation and raid cargo ships? [Question]

Is that some sort of huge mistake? I personally chose a race that I don’t mind being outcasted from (the Vykeen) and when I’m in their systems I raid the cargo ships without a care in the world, earning me “enemy” status. I know I cant do missions in their systems as a result, but that’s perfectly fine with me because I can just do them in other star systems.

I guess it makes it harder to find S class modules in their space stations too, is that right? I guess I just dont understand why people are scared to death of angering any one faction. It seems more beneficial to just choose a faction you’d like to bully and just stick with that. I’ve been getting way more freighter upgrade modules than I would otherwise, because occasionally the freighters I raid will only have 1 or 2 freighter upgrade modules while the surrounding cargo ships will net me another 5-10.

Is there some sort of drawback that I’m too inexperienced to notice yet?

Another thing is that I have no clue how good the mission rewards become because I’ve never made it past rank 4 with any faction. As it stands, the rewards seem pretty sub par

a few ideas for Hello Games [Suggestion]

I have a few requests from Hello Games: bring back first person warping. at least as an option. survival mode should start with no cargo slots in the backpack. since we got different backpacks now maybe we can have different classes (light, medium and heavy with different agility stats) let us decline emergency broadcasts. like dreams of the deep mission or settlement mission. disowning a settlement would be great too. ship scrapping / upgrading terminal for freighters. same goes for multitool terminals

Atlas Pass Discussion [Discussion]

Concerning AtlasPasses.....

 

  1. AtlasPasses stack in your inventory. They aren't expendable, so why do you need more than one of a type? Being able to stack multiple of them makes no sense. Example: You can have multiple v1's in an inventory stack.

 

 

  1. Making them. Here are the current recipes to make each: Copper x200 + Microprocessor x1 → AtlasPass v1 Cadmium x200 + Microprocessor x1 → AtlasPass v2 Emeril x200 + Microprocessor x1 → AtlasPass v3

It should be: Copper x200 + Microprocessor x1 → AtlasPass v1 Cadmium x200 + Microprocessor x1 + AtlasPass v1 → AtlasPass v2 Emeril x200 + Microprocessor x1 + AtlasPass v2 → AtlasPass v3

 

 

  1. Since an AtlasPass v2 can open v2 & v1 doors, and an AtlasPass v3 can open v3, v2, and v1 doors, why have three separate recipes in total after you get the third one? Just make it so after you learn the v2 recipe, the v1 recipe is replaced with v2, then v3 replaces v2. In other words, when you get to where you can make a v3 AtlasPass, that is the only recipe you can access/see. (Because it's the only one you need)

 

 

I know I am overthinking all this, but it feels like Hello Games had grander plans for the AtlasPass, but cheesed them into the game.... incomplete.

IMO AtlasPasses were a missed opportunity for a bigger questline to attain... instead they are just given to you virtually off the bat... with no real effort.

 

They should be much harder to attain, and should be "expendable", as in you should have to "recharge" them after so many uses. On top of everything else... they shouldn't be tradeable.

 

Another odd thing is nobody even questions you entering a restricted area in a space station. Seems like those doors are locked for a reason, but nobody cares that you just casually unlocked the door, walked in and stole their stuff.

Tip of the Day [Information]

Not sure if this has been discussed before, but... You can build a bunch of these at your base(s) and get unlimited free stuff.

  Crate Fabricator Item Quantity Chance Di-hydrogen Jelly 1 14% Geknip 1 3% Gek Relic 1 20% Ion Battery 1 6% Korvax Casing 1 2% Korvax Convergence Cube 1 5% Microprocessor 1 20% Oxygen Capsule 1 11% Vy'keen Effigy 1 10% Vy'keen Dagger 1 3%

Once placed, they take one hour in real time to fabricate a random container item. Once the item is fabricated, the container's glow lines turn from red to green, and any player will be able to claim the item and restart the (one hour) fabrication process.

  Barrel Fabricator Item Quantity Chance Antimatter 1 ? Antimatter Housing 1 ? 33~35Condensed Carbon 1 ? Navigation Data 1 ? Warp Cell 1 ?

Once the item is fabricated, the canister's glow lines turn from red to green, and any player with an AtlasPass v1 will be able to claim the item and restart the (one hour) fabrication process.

 

Just unlock the base-building parts in exchange for Salvaged Data the from the Construction Research Station in the Space Anomaly. Then place a bunch of them in your base(s), and score a bunch of free stuff every hour. Ionised Cobalt x10 + Antimatter x1 → Crate Fabricator Ionised Cobalt x10 + Antimatter x1 → Barrel Fabricator

Exocraft Analysis Visor(Periscope?) [Suggestion]

Would be neat if they added a way to scan stuff without exiting the exocraft. Would incentivize us to use the exocrafts more. Like an upgradeable survey tool that can detect further or select which deposit you want to scan for.

I just hate exiting my Nomad to scan a fauna or flora which as it turns out i already scanned, enter the craft, then exit again every couple meters.

Dragon Races...? [Discussion]

More and more Big Bird eggs are getting around lately ,thanks to the extra companion slots, and the efforts of a few true Xenobiologists in the community.

I know there are some Civs that organize events. PVP stuff and Exocraft races. All stuff that can be held within a single base.

A Dragon Race would probably need to be at least 10-15,000U, though. Seeing as how you can only upload one visible base per planet, that's problematic.

Any one have any good ideas on how something like that could be set up? Having multiple players butting bases along the route might not be viable, even with minimal part counts (just lighted towers, probably).

I don't know. Just something I was thinking about. Most likely, it's not worth the hassle.

It'd be fun, tho.

Is there any point of owning a Rifle/Pistol Multitool? [Discussion]

I found an Experimental which is the best Weapon ingame as i know, best overall Stats, mines a little less then the pistol(5%) deals a little less damage than an Alien MT (5%) but has a whooping 100 Scan.

I know Experimental and Alien Weapons are rare and super Rare but why can't Rifles have at least more capacity for tech? or pistols faster Reload time?!

I'm 120hrs into the game and im kind of disappointed about my S rifle and S Pistol where i spend my nanites for upgrades to make them really good (not perfect) after i found my S class Experimental.

And why on earth is Blazejavelin and neutron Cannon not displayed with Damage? it only goes up by a small number not the real number it deals.

Delete all wires [Question]

'Suddenly' all my wires are messed up, in that way they do not connect anymore, the endpoints seems 'shifted'. The only solution is to delete the wires and reconnect it. But some wires are behind objects and cannot be selected unless deleting that objects, and that's something I'm trying to avoid. Is there any way to delete ALL wires? Maybe through the save editor? I'd rather do that and reconnect the whole base than delete ?% of my base.

Thanx and greeting, CJ.

Ceiling Lights are NOT broken for everyone; here's an example [Bug]

In a thread about Ceiling Lights being broken, people were skeptical when I said I wasn't seeing the problem.

(https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/tg321j/ceiling_lights_i_looked_up_everywhere_cant_find_a/)

So, I powered up my PS5, opened up an existing Normal Save, found a Misty Planet in a Tier 3 system and built this test base using base Alloy parts. Each room is 3x3 standard floor panels, two levels high using Alloy Walls, with angled roof walls. I used standard base building techniques, without any tricks or glitches:

Test Base, with power source at the center of the three Alloy rooms on the left

Room 1 is more than 100u from any power source. Clearly, the ring light works just fine without power:

Room 1: Single Ring Light, with no power source within 100u

Room 2 has a single powered light in the center of the ceiling:

Room 2, with a single powered light

Room 3 has a simple combination of regular powered lights in a diamond, with a ring light in the center:

Room 3, with powered and unpowered light

Room 4 has simple regular powered lights scattered at various levels around the room:...

Are Combat Scope and Cloaking Device useful? [Question]

So besides the small amount of screen zooming, does Combat Scope add anything stat-wise to the multi-tool weapons? idk if this is placebo at working but some people say it also adds recoil reduction.

As for the Cloaking Device, does it have any use other than escaping alerted sentinels? doesn't seem to prevent the encounter though nor does it hide you from other creatures including NPCs or planetary fauna.

Desperately need help with a re-accruing bug [Bug]

All sentinels on my planet re-activate and I have to de-activate them at a pillar

All salvaged data/gravitno balls re spawn

What do I do? The sentinels on my planet will attack me no matter what and they patrol outside my front door. It’s making it impossible to even have a base.

I saved way too many nav charts through the first two jumps. [Information]

Like 120 charts. Before I figured out the inventory system.

So now I'm kinda stuck cause I have these five virgin planets and I need to clear inventory so I guess I'm settling in for a while. I learned a ton of gek words which is funny cause I changed to a gek before this jump.

If this game wasn't a random infinite sandbox I would have thought changing my race and then finding one of their systems was a feature not a coincidence. On a plus note I already have a level 3 trading relationship and learned a ton of their words. Ty for reading.

HELP: Placed base computer too close to portal, so now when I teleport to that base, I spawn inside the portal. Can't get out. Ideas? [Question]

See title. At some point in the distant past, I found a portal in the Hilbert dimension, threw down a base computer. The problem is, I placed the base computer like, RIGHT at the portal, so when I teleport to the base, I spawn literally inside the portal wall. Can't get out.

I have other bases in Hilbert, but I cannot seem to find the system with my portal in it. Can't place a short-range teleporter while I'm at the "base", either.

Since I have other bases, I could just delete this one and then find a new portal, but was hoping for a different solution if one exists.

#

An underground biome idea [Suggestion]

Some planets might have an extra underground layers related to their biome. Cold planets might have an icy biome below, moldy ones might have lots of mushrooms etc. It's not like caves though. It's a fully spherical undreground layer below surface, even below oceans.

However, as a game developer, I can guess the technical limitations which makes it not possible especially for consoles. It might only possible by making a transfer zone between layers to separate them, so players wouldn't be able to unite layers which would cause memory issues on older systems.

I wish there were more generator types [Suggestion]

I like being on volcanic planets and often have problems with power generation because the only good generator requires electromagnetic hotspots.

The lore itself outlines the Altas’s degradation, and throughout the updated new features have come tangential to lore-related degradation, such as being able to travel in between galaxies, and the space anomaly.

To The Person Who Gave Me 180 Starship AI Valves, And The Whole NMS Community…. Thank You! [Discussion]

You’re my hero. Seriously, that made my day. I was just visiting the anomaly last night and showing off my glowing blue plasma electricity ball pet that I named Gumball, cuz people seem to freaking love that lil guy. And I noticed you had a really cool looking helmet, so I said that it looked really cool and asked how to get it. Then you showed me your ship, I showed you mine, and I start receiving an ungodly amount of Starship AI Valves, 180 in total. It is because of you that I won’t have to worry about money for a long time, my brother won’t have to worry about money for a long time, and my friend won’t have to worry about money. It’s just… It’s so much. My game crashed when I tried to sell some of them, it was so much. I can buy all the ships I want now. I can buy all the resources I need.

As a player who has only been playing for a little over a week and a half, this was the best thing that has happened to me. This community is so awesome and generous, I’ve met so many nice people in the Anomaly and have heard such kind words from people this subreddit. I’ve heard really good advice, words of encouragement, and seen such amazing creations! I never knew this game was so amazing, and so certainly didn’t know how amazing this community was.

Weird Frigate Timing Thing? [Question]

So, I'm relatively new to NMS with about 120hrs into a normal save. Made a lot of progress though and feel like I have a good handle on it. I just recently had something weird happen though and I can't find anything on Google that seems similar so I figured I'd ask you kind folks.

I have a decent freighter and a bunch of good frigates that I was sending out on new missions every day. Most of the missions took 5-20hrs. Cool. Several days ago I sent out five missions and came back the next day to collect the spoils. They all had over 700hrs left on the mission timers! What the what?

In case it matters, I had recently jumped to a new galaxy for the first time and I thought, "maybe I started these in the old galaxy and my ships are stranded?" So I jumped it back. No change. I did start a new mission with some other frigates and that one completed on time.

Then I realized that my AI mines had also stopped producing. The extractors are powered and claim to be producing but they're not moving or filling up silos. These things have to be related but I can't figure out how.

I'm not running any mods or anything like that and I'm playing on PC. Has anyone had this happen before and is there anything I can do about it? Really hoping to not have to scrap this save...

My thoughts on Survival vs Normal [Discussion]

So I have been playing the community expedition recently and have hence had my first go at a "normal" difficulty game, after having played survival on my primary playthrough and I have some thoughts on the modes.

Inventory Management:

SO much better on normal. When you play on survival you're hobbled with 250 max stack sizes on things like ferrite, cobalt etc, or 500 in cargo inventory. On normal a lot of things stack all the way up to 9999! It's beautiful it brings the game back to life and makes base building feel like an actually realistic objective. Whenever I tried to build a base on Survival, even with my maximally expanded inventory I constantly felt hobbled by the tiny stack sizes, it made base building extremely frustrating as I kept having to make small trips to resupply instead of stocking up loads and then getting to work.

TLDR - Survival is inventory management hell, I much prefer normal's more fluid path.

Extreme environments:

Here is of course where survival is supposed to have a rougher time, you really have to stock up on tons of environmental systems to even dream of stepping outside of your ship on an extreme planet for more than a few seconds. I like this overall, it makes it feel like a challenge to "unlock" those harsher planets, however it can be a hassle having to constantly re-power systems. I half wonder if an auto-resupply option might make sense, for as long as you have the re-power resource left.

In some ways it's nice on normal not having to re-supply them as much. However it has the downside for me that I can set foot on and survive an extreme environment without a single exosuit upgrade tailored to the environment. This might be pleasant for new players to not surprise them while on an expedition but it feels a bit too easy. In some ways I think it would be nice if you were required to at least install one system to be...

Active void egg question? [Question]

I reset my mission because I couldn't find the system Starbirth wanted me to go to. When I did that it duplicated my active void egg(twice actually). I know they're useless, but I'm finding conflicting advice from google/Reddit so just wanted the most up to date. Do I... Ignore it and continue on so the quest doesn't get messed up? OR Remove two of them from my exosuit inventory and keep them in my Freighter or something just now? OR Delete 2 of them bringing me back to just 1?

What is the current consensus?

In addition, there are lots of proto-Geks out there; they're pretty common. Geks and ancestral Geks are everywhere. How can it be that no Traveler is built like a Gek when fully half of the non-machine population are Geks?

Expedition Bug - 100% Companion [Bug]

Hello fellow Interlopers,

I'm only missing the one mission "Enduring Friendship" left for the Expedition, however I've hit a snag. I dismissed the first pet not realising how close it was to being 100% because I wasn't a fan of it. Now, the only pet I have is a bug I captured from the "Coleopterology" milestone but its in the second slot of the companion register. It is 100%, but I don't have any progress - Is there a way to move creatures in the register to the first slot so I can complete the expedition & get the final rewards?

First off, I'm having tons of fun just exploring the planets, and will want to do more... [Question]

But, I can't, for the life of me figure out how to not keep crashing every 5 minutes. Let me explain: I don't have a good rig. It's a 7th-Gen i5, onboard graphics. I know it ain't good, but I can run Monster Hunter World, I can run War Thunder on high-ish settings. There are a couple other games I can run on this thing without any real lag but somehow, NMS keeps lagging and crashing. I've already adjusted the graphics and video settings to as low as could be feasible while still allowing me to play (see sorta distant structures), although it looks really bad already now. But the game still insists on crashing every few minutes, to the point where I can't explore a planet without going back to my ship with every major step I take to make sure I don't lose progress over a crash, (not helped by the fact that loading into the game takes 10 minutes already). Really, what I want to ask is:

Is there a mod, or a file change/overwrite that I'm missing here, that'll give me a more stable experience? I love the game. It reminds me of StarBound, in a way, a game that I grew up with and still come back to ever so often. But I just can't play properly with all these crashes.

no mans Sky Expedition [Question]

Expedition reward changes and bugs? [Bug]

Maybe I am remembering wrong, but if I haven't "selected" a milestone to complete, it won't complete this even if I do so in game. I added a beetle to my registry, but nothing happened. Now I selected this milestone to complete, and it gives me the lower right hand directions. I complete it, but then the milestone still says 0/1. With no rewards.

Do you actually have to be in the system that the Phase and Rendezvous take place in? Honestly if I'm out and about and I have one milestone selected, and I end up collecting milk, ID'ing enough flying creatures, etc, then I should still be rewarded for doing this things. Isn't this how it happened on the last one? Or did I just follow that one to a "T" and didn't notice.

Either way, I have register bug selected, and it won't finish the milestone. I'll have to check if I am in the Rendezvous system for that phase, I may not be. It shouldn't make a difference. I like to wander a bit. Kinda the whole point of this game...

Kinda…bored [Discussion]

Man sometimes I get super into this game. Especially after not picking it up for a while. You start chasing some objective and get caught up in a thousand other little things and it’s so immersive. But then you start to wear out whatever update just came out or it’s just so slow paced as it often is and it starts to feel like all you do is stand around and mine things jet pack and organize your inventory. And without all of this motivation from your own head, the game actually doesn’t offer very much besides that. And the whole thing just falls flat.

I’m a day 1 player. Been with it all along. But sometimes I feel like I don’t “get” it. All you fellow travelers, how do you cure the NMS blues? I swear, some of you comment or post and it’s like you’re playing a whole nother game and I wanna know if I’m missing something or if we all kinda know this but push through anyway

Can't complete Expedition - Can't tame flyers [Bug]

As the title states, I cannot tame any flying creatures.

I have no interaction menu/option with any flying creatures. I cannot feed them. They will eat my pellets and display the green + symbol if I throw enough on the ground and they beat the terrestrials in the area, but I still do not have an option to interact when I get close.

They are not the perma-flying untamable ones, they are feedable, landing flyers.

Buddy tamed one right next to me. I have one tamed on my main save char.

New PC build and clean everything, filed validated etc etc.

Any options, or should I just quit the expedition now.

Issues with “A Trace of Metal” questline [Question]

Everything was smooth until the part where you free Laylaps from the Hive. I unloaded and reloaded the area several times, and there was always at least one missing Sentinel. I dug everywhere and couldn’t find it. I restart the quest line from a different area to get a different spawn for the fight, but I get stuck on installing the final Minotaur upgrade. The Atlas Messenger wouldn’t turn the hacked brain into a radiant one, and since quest progression at that point is tied to the upgrading of the brain and not the installation, I’m stuck. I can’t find any more atlas messengers and i have a second hacked brain. What in the world do I do?

100K Nanites disappeared from my inventory overnight [Discussion]

Hello there!

So, title says all. I'm relatively new to the game, had 100K nanites stacked in my inventory (been playing a lot lately and I've been doing good farm) and I had around 110K nanites (last number I remember is 90K, about a week ago). So, logged in today, saw 11K. Didn't make any weird things last night, only played for about an hour: some freighter piracy (salvaged modules yummy), one warp drive upgrade on my freighter, some walking around and fucking around... yeah, pretty much sums it up. Any ideas? I don't really need them at this point, but it's really weird. Any help appreciated. :)

part snapping [Question]

Anybody noticed how the game is really touch and go when it comes to snapping parts underneath other parts. Like, did they get rid of this feature or is it just super buggy?

With wall pieces I've found if you attach a floor piece to the bottom of the wall the game will let you snap a wall piece underneath it. It works but it's annoying and this was never a problem before frontiers.

I'm now trying to make a construction that utilizes that cuboid frame piece and I can't for the life of me build down into the ground with them. Anybody have any kind of workaround for this? The new base parts are great but the snapping has taken a step back. Free place mode is super inaccurate since you can't move the piece along the z axis and the game just places everything against whatever surface you're looking at.

Issues with multiplayer [Question]

So I (on steam) wanted to play with my brother (on Xbone). After a bunch of juggling stuff, finally joined his lobby, and everything was smooth, except that when he went to the anomaly his game nearly crashed because of how many players there were. He said that he's never seen players there because he plays with multiplayer turned off, even when he was playing with a buddy days before. To compensate, he tried to switch from wireless to Ethernet connection as it massively increases his d/u speeds vs wireless. The moment he did though, everything fell apart. We couldnt join each other's sessions, turn multiplayer on, turned it off, everytime we tried joining via the multiplayer menu, it would say "connecting" and then just... Nothing. No error code or anything. Went back to wireless connection, everything worked perfectly (minus some minor to medium lag on his end)

(He is using an original Xbone, not an S or X) Any ideas why Ethernet connection screws everything up?

I’m sad. Looking for some guidance. [Question]

I’ve played NMS nearly exclusively since it launched. I don’t have a ton of time to play games but when I do I play NMS. For 5 years now.

But I’ve gotten to the point where I feel I’ve done everything there is to do, seen everything there is to be seen, and it sucks.

I’ve started new saves many times in all modes. I actually enjoy the grind of leveling everything. But I’ve hit that wall I think. The expeditions are nice when they come out but they’re not that often or prolonged.

Any advice or ideas on a new way to play the game that maybe I haven’t thought of?

How do you play NMS? What do you spend most your time doing?

Cant find Rendezvous Point 2? [Question]

I'm trying to be through with this stupid game mode, but I can't find Rendezvous Point 2.

How varied are biomes now? [Question]

Hello!

I've played the game at launch, and I've been wanting to get back on it. The deal breaker that made me leave back then was that, out of the first ten planets I explored, I saw the same effing beetle (that kinda looked like a sandwich) on four of them, with slight modifications. That completely shattered the illusion of each planet being a separate ecosystem, and I've always wanted to play the game for the exploration aspect.

So my question is: with the huge amount of updates, how diversified are the biomes now? How long until you start seeing similar plants/animals across different planets?

Suggestions for updating building mode [Suggestion]

For starters, thank you to the devs for such a great, enjoyable, and expansive game. Thank you also for continuing to add to it and fix issues promptly. I love the game and love building structures on it much more than on Ark, but there is a common problem between them that has to have some kind of solution: pieces not snapping where they should.

Once you get a decently sized base together, snapping pieces to the correct spot becomes an excruciating task of circling the build cam into each and every possible angle at every possible distance only to have to toggle snap placement off and hope that there is still some way to get it placed correctly.

I understand that this is a symptom of having such a dynamic build mode with so many options, but there needs to be some kind of distance/proximity override when it comes to building. If there is a snap point directly in front of my character’s face and he is positioned correctly and looking right at it, it should not be trying to snap to every other placement in my line of sight within 100ft, through walls.

Another problem is the “ghost” snap placements that are inaccessible through any control. On Ark when it shows you potential snap spots, there are controls for you to cycle through each placement in view. In NMS, it will show you 10 different possible placements at a time that disappear the second you try to look at them. It is a feature that serves absolutely no purpose and is increasingly frustrating.

I’ve been on the fence about making a post for a while since I’d rather ignore it and enjoy the rest of the game than complain online, but tonight I attempted to get on for less than an hour and do a quick build, and I’m stuck halfway through the build completely unable to get a small floor to snap at the bottom of my stairs, trying this one piece for about 15 minutes. Turned the game off and probably...

I've jumped well over 60 times now and I have no idea how much further I've got to go. What are my options here?

No free freighter? [Question]

Not sure if this is a bug or my mistake ruined my odds, but I’ve got 10+ hrs of gameplay on PC multiplayer. I’ve now seen two freighter battles. The first one, I ended up killing some good guy ships (first game) and got attacked by wave upon wave of sentinels until I landed on the freighter. It was not offered to me for free. Then I took off and got killed by the sentinels. I didn’t reload my save because I was hosting multiplayer and I’d figured I didn’t want a class B freighter anyway. Maybe I’d get a better free one later.

The next one I was not offered one for free either. I haven’t gone for round 3 yet, but I get a “distress signal” from the freighter each time (although I’m never able to answer it other than just killing the pirates) but I never get called by the captain to land on the freighter, even when the freighter icon shows up and I go to the landing bay I’m still asked for money.

Any ideas?

Solved the excessive frigate expedition time [Information]

My recent post showed a screenshot of my frigate list detailing a few frigates with 630hrs remaining on an expedition. I send my expeditions out in batches of five, and every expedition had around 630hrs remaining.

Since we can't cancel frigates expeditions, and I don't want to wait 27 days for them to get back, I decided to play around with the save editor.

You'll have to dig through the JSON file, but under PlayerStateData>FleetExpeditions you'll have a list of your current expeditions, numbered starting from 0

In each of those folders, you'll have a line that says "StartTime":1234567890 . Those numbers are an example, yours should say something like 16477890399. That is the Unix Timestamp for 3/20/2022 at 10:33:19 GMT-0500

Unix Time is the number of seconds since Jan 01, 1970 (UTC)...

So when my JSON file had the start time set as 1649993485, the game believes that the expeditions were started on April 15, 2022. Almost a month after I actually started them.

I don't know how to fix that bit of logic, I'm not a programmer/coder.

But I do know that you can correct the start time by opening a save editor, opening the raw JSON and navigating to the above folder to manually enter an appropriate unix timestamp.

You can find Unix Time calculators on the internet, I used this one https://www.unixtimestamp.com/index.php

By entering a timestamp that was five days ago, I was able to make the game believe that the expeditions started five days ago, which is when they were actually started. Upon loading back into the game the expeditions were completed, as they should have been.

I hope this helps you out!

[OC] 80K Activated Indium per 3.17 Hours In a 4x8 Large Floor Space with No Output Loss (S-Class Deposit) [Build]

It goes to 80K!

Say what now?

The shear throughput isn't all that impressive compared to 1-InExCor_Ugining, but I thought it was nifty how I got it all into a relatively small area. Also, the collection points are decently close to each other to avoid much running around. To be clear, I'm not talking about output loss based on distance from 100%, I'm talking about reduction of output due to connecting many extractors and depots in series.

This build consists of five 8-tall pillars of mineral extractors and five 8-tall pillars of depots, along with an additional five of each 4-tall and 2-tall pillars of depots. The 4-tall and 2-tall depot pillars are used to gather the minerals into a smaller collection point and also bring the total collected amount to 80K, which fills in about 3 hours and 10 minutes.

If you want to visit, the address is in the photo above. Look for the base "Shortround", as in Short Round from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Yes, I name may Indium bases after something from an Indiana Jones movie.

How the...?

All pillars are horizontally spaced apart no closer than the width of a single extractor/depot (same size). This is important, because two of either device that are immediately next to each other will count as two connected devices, despite not actually being connected, which causes the extraction output to degrade after having more than two next to each other. This has been observed to occur only on the horizontal plane. Vertically stacking directly on each other seems to have no effect. However, directly connecting pipes between more than two/three (details further down) of the same devices (horiz. or vert.) will cause output...

Help please, something is SERIOUSLY wrong with my multitools. [Question]

For some reason the damage potential PLUMMETS randomly on my multitools, starting today with my most recent save. I bought a rifle earlier today, it was ~1400 DP. I load up a save this evening and notice I'm doing like no damage to sentinels... when I'm in a safe area I notice my DP went down to 300!!!! I have 3 scanner upgrades, terrain/mining, cloak, and only 2 weapons (javelin and the other charged one). Everything was fine before my most recent save and now all of a sudden ANY multitool I try to use gets all screwed up in this manner!

So I traded what I can only assume is this bugged one for an alien one that magically appeared once I relogged. OK, so that alien one had ~1500 DP. Well I started adding tech to it, and all of a sudden down to 300 out of nowhere. UGH. I'm aware of overloads but I got no such warning and see no reason why I should be overloaded as I only have 2-3 techs/mods of the same "color code", nothing that exceeds that.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that I looted a "royal" multitool today? I've read that they seem to be doing funky things with people's multitools. I'm still new so it would really suck if I had to delete something so cool, especially since I randomly found that tower to begin with...but now I'm feeling like the damn thing is cursed.

Oh and ANOTHER weird thing, whenever I rearrange the tech on my multitool in an attempt to organize it better, all my stats like the scan range randomly jump around too. WTF?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Living Ship Storage Upgrade Glitch [Question]

Hey all!

I wanted to try a glitch to upgrade the storages for my living ship.

It involves two players to be at the same space station, you would have your freighter nearby. You would purchase a random ship in the station, then get back into your own original ship and fly to your freighter.

The ship you purchase and leave at the space station be transfered to your freighter, and at the same time be left in the station for me to hop into and then go and upgrade, what the game thinks is the ship I just entered, but it's really my living ship that I use storage modules on.

You can of course relog to your last manual save afterwards and not lose any units from the purchase of random ship in the space station.

I can repeat this process for you as well if you wish to upgrade your living ship's storage.

Can't Load My Save After Updating Iris XE Display Drivers, Can't Rollback My Drivers. Anyone Else Have This Issue? [Bug]

Ok, so I played this game earlier just fine today. I'm on a laptop using an Iris Xe integrated GPU, the games runs amazingly. I opened my laptop earlier and saw my display driver needed an update, so I updated it. After that, every time I try to load my save, it crashes. I know it's not a problem with the save file cuz I can load the same save just fine on my Xbox.

I've reinstalled the game, made sure my saves were synced (I'm using MS store), but nothing is working. I think the update to my i-GPU might be incompatible with NMS for some reason. I can load into the main menu just fine, but after I try to load my save, I wait through the loading screen as usual, and it eventually crashes.

I saw the same issue in this post: https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/1/3315110799621008171/ But this is very old. And in my case, I cannot roll back my driver, as the option is greyed out, and apparently my laptop (barely a month old) did not have its system restore point setting turned on by default, so I cant reload a previous restore point.

Is anyone else with the Iris XE i-GPU having this same issue? I submitted a ticket to HG with the code it copied to my clipboard, and a .dmp file, I just wanna know if I'm the only one experiencing this.

Anyone else feel me on this? I just saw the new Sentinels update and decided to get it reinstalled, and every time I do, it baffles me how small this game is for the sheer amount of content.

The whole game said and done even after updates is.. what? 20-25GB? I've had single updates for some games that were way bigger than that, and yet had less content. Then you get some of these Battle Royale games that are 100+ GB but practically devoid of actual content, 90% of it being microtransactional cosmetics.

So yeah, just saying, but of all the Sean Murray wizardry that has taken place since the launch of this game, this honestly impresses me the most. They've managed to keep the file size so small compared to other games. I honestly would've figured this game would reach at least 75-80GB by this many updates into it.

Scared of the heat coming out of my Xbox Series X while playing NMS [Information]

Switching from the Xbox One to the Xbox Series X, which I could FINALLY buy from a store locally and at retail price, was jarring; the graphics are insanely improved and so are load times.

However, the thing is basically heating my apartment! I put my hand over the top of it and said, "Whoa!" The heat coming out is crazy. Then I read it is supposed to do that:

https://www.gfinityesports.com/console-news/xbox-series-x-emits-lots-of-heat-as-intended-spawn-wave-gamesbeat-next-gen-cooling-design-explained-microsoft/

Oh well, I guess I save on my already very low gas bill in this apartment! ;) Of course, my air conditioning cost will be higher in the summer.

Meanwhile, there is noticeably less heat when playing an older game like Red Dead Online; there is no heat at all when just watching videos and such.

I was concerned because I originally experienced the "red ring of death" on two of the old Xbox 360's. This was because they used "cold solder" or something and the CPU/Graphics chip would eventually unseat. I managed to keep one going, via the pennies under the heat sink trick but eventually, both were done; I got one of the ones that did not do that for $50 bucks used, which could use my old hard drive from them, when I finally got the Xbox One so I could transfer over the saves.

My "Iteration 1" headcanon [Fan Work]

The Iteration 1 title is the rarest title in the game, in the fact that it can no longer be attained. The title was awarded at the launch of the NEXT update to those of us who had pre-ordered 1.0 and still have the same Traveler we began the journey with in 2015. When the various updates released that predated NEXT released, many people decided to start fresh with new saves, but to those of us who stuck with our original Traveler, upon booting into NEXT, we were rewarded with the title on top of a whole bunch of other titles awarded retroactively.

I've worked a headcanon into the title for my Traveler. His story is he's one of the few ancients among the Travelers. He came to existence at the start of the 1st simulation, and with every subsequent reset of the simulation he remained unchanged, remembering the history of each version of the simulation. So ancient is he that his initial connection to the Atlas, which he chose in his infancy in simulation 1.0 has long since dissipated, and he now exists outside of the simulation. So much time has passed the the Atlas sees him as a equal and not just a mere vessel. His data signature so vast that he now qualifies as an Atlas in his own right.

In the current version of the simulation, he continues his chosen role of a peacekeeper, focusing on the destruction of rogue elements within galaxies he patrols. To the rest of life within the system, he's merely just a skilled fighter and pilot. But upon seeing him interact with the many ancient monoliths and the ease of which he can solve their riddles...you'd be remised not to think "he's done this before". And so Oz70NYC "Iteration 1" continues to exist as he will until the simulation comes to it's fated end.

A little help for a potential new player: [Question]

I have been thinking for a long time about buying and starting playing No Man sky. Can you tell me ( in your opinion) what are the experiences with you who have been playing it for a long time. I'm not too interested in some minor bugs or server lags, but the overall satisfaction that this game is giving to players. All in all, I like games of this type and I wonder if I can play this game together with another friend. Because I am currently playing Sea of Thieves all by myself as my friends are not fans of such games.

Will we ever revisit Expeditions? [Question]

I've been really enjoying the latest expedition, and as a person that hasn't played since 2017, I've already gotten further in the expedition save than on my regular one. I feel like milestones help me get less distracted and focus on goals. That being said, I know the Expeditions Revisited was a thing only some time ago, but on the website it says "as a one off".

It's a bummer, but is there any possibility we'll have a chance to replay the older expeditions someday? Or are people not too hot about the concept? Were previous expeditions enjoyable? If we won't get them ever again, consider this my open letter haha.

Are these still enemies and pirates in creative mode? [Question]

I know it's impossible to actually be killed, but will I still get the chance to actually fight? Like are there pirates who will at least try to attack freighters or me? I know I'm invincible but will there be any conflict of any sort? Even for story missions?

I love having maxed out weapons finally after years of only playing standard, I wanna use them, haha.

Experienced a Weird but Harmless Bug Last Night -- NPC pilot tried to sell me a crashed ship [Bug]

So I arrived by teleporter to my oldest base, which is built on a ridge that overlooks a crashed starship site.

My base has two landing pads, and when I arrived, I found an NPC standing alone on the empty one, walking around and looking at his tablet, and generally acting as though he was inspecting an invisible starship that only he could see.

That's odd, I thought, his starship must be parked there but didn't load or something. So I went over and spoke to him, because I was curious, and thought maybe I could see what sort of ship it was if I inquired about buying it.

Well, the NPC did behave like a normal NPC pilot, able to buy and sell items, and able to negotiate on a price for his starship. But when I chose that option, the ship I was presented with was damaged to hell. All tech non-functional, many damaged slots, the works. It was as though the NPC were trying to sell me a crashed ship.

I exited out of the conversation, and I turned and caught sight of the crashed ship that my base overlooks, and realized -- this guy is trying to sell me THAT crashed ship, right there. He is standing on an empty landing pad, acting exactly as though he landed there in a working starship, but instead he's become associated to the damaged one sitting by the distress beacon about 100u away.

After a few minutes, the NPC disappeared from the landing pad, and then the damaged ship at the nearby crash site (which had no working engines) rose into the air and flew away.

Is there a daily sales limit? [Question]

Is there a limit to how much you can sell per day? I sold 100,000,000 worth of components yesterday but then I couldn't sell any more, my other components weren't even showing up in the selling menu. I only tried selling at one star base, to the pilots that landed not at the terminal. That star base is not in a T3 economy system.

I have less than 1 billion units so I am under the overall cap.

Broken mission interface [Question]

I'm pretty newish to the game, 50 or so hours in. I've not done a whole lot of exploring or missions. But I find the log interface to be very limited. I can't have more than one active mission, which is annoying, and there seem to be a few which just don't seem to work. I'm not a big gamer, but coming from ghost recon break point it was really easy to have more than one objective moving forward at a time, and progressing even if it wasn't your primary story line.

Right now I finished artimis and am sorta not sure which are main storyline to move forward. I have a Apollo portal quest, but it doesn't seem to make sense what to do next.

I'm rambling but anyone else find the single mission format limiting?

Sentinel Update Intergalactic Teleporting [Question]

Since the sentinel update I have seen almost no body in the Anomaly, When I start a new play with the community missions I'll use the Anomaly to gain access to several different galaxies but since that last update I only see peoples bases in Euclid and there seems to be way more people in the Anomaly than that bases listed in the Anomaly.

Has anyone else observed this issue?

6 years and counting. [Screenshot]

6 years ago this game launched and it wasn't the best launch but i saw a future of the game and i saw it expanding beyond our expectations even with others that were trying to form a bandwagon to get people to get rid of the game, I am happy i stayed with the game and will continue to be with for a while!

Worth it to travel to centre of galaxy? [Question]

I've almost completed the main story (at least I think I have, all of my primary missions are telling me to go to the galaxy centre). I've read up what happens when you do eventually get to the centre but I wanted to know if it's actually worth it/if there's actually any benefit to it as what I've read is just basically giving a new game +.

I'm over 690000 light years away from the galaxy centre and every warp only takes me 1000 light years closer, and the black holes I've gone through have only gotten me 5000 closer (even though I apparently travelled 500'000+ lightyears).

As well as this, I'm scared I'd lose my freighter and claimed starships, as well as my previous bases and my knowledge of alien languages, blueprints etc.

What exactly do you get to keep, if anything, for "completing" the game, and is it even worth it?

#

Are these items customizeable or not? [Question]

I have been trying to decorate my base with some of these (ornate stool, counter, golden table), however when I try to pick the color and material, nothing changes. At first I thought it might be a texture bug (tried clearing shader cache) but other components, such as walls or floors change when I pick a different color. Am I missing something here?

Base building issue [Question]

Built a base at a trading post on planet, 408u from my settlement. Extended a walkway from trading post into settlement and built a bunch of stuff including landing pad and exocraft bays. Everything going great until I left the planet to get salt. Now I'm back and apart to be outside of my build radius when I'm trying to place other objects in the settlement, even though it was fine before. What's the deal? I'm sure it's something simple and I'm clueless about it. TIA.

I recently returned to the game during the Expedition rerun. I previously left back right after living ships were introduced, having burned out with too much grinding and being extremely disappointed with living ships at that time. Are living ships better these days? [Discussion]

Are they comparable to good exotics?

Are they worth the effort of the quest and everything?

How easy is it to actually get decent upgrades for them now compared to before?

giant eggs result. [Information]

Well, No luck. I did as you suggested and found all the star system discovered by Hello Games, and flew to every planet in every system. I scanned all land and air creatures. Still No luck. No diplo, No giant eggs, not even any creatures that might give giant eggs. Nothing. so, I guess Ill just give up on fully completing this expedition. Thanks for the info. anyhow. I will see what UTUBE has to offer, mayby then, I donno.

Weird Spanish Translation in Expedition 5 [Information]

Heads up for people playing in Spanish, cause I needed one and couldnt find it!

I've been desperately trying to complete phase 2 cause I was missing one of the sightseer planets. The planets listed were the same as in English, just their Spanish names, but one of them just said "Planeta de clase A" [Class A planet].

I did't know what that meant and assumed it was a paradise/lush planet, maybe? But the achievement didnt trigger when I landed on those planets. I've been searching for so long until I finally watched a tutorial on youtube, and the English text said "Airless planet", which in Spanish are called "Planetas sin Aire". After finding this out, I finally completed phase 2.

It's not the first time a wonky translation confuses me, but I really dont understand why would they change "airless" to "class A"

TLDR: Spanish speaking players, "Planetas de clase A" refers to airless planets.

Yaaaaaaaayyyy. Finally got giant eggs!!!! [Information]

Finally got giant eggs! Okay the Star system is Xandrov, the planet name is New Muleighle. Super aggressive sentinels. I encountered constant bombardment during the entirety of my stay with no breaks. I just ignored them and kept running around to avoid too many direct hits. The Diplos spawn quickly and nearby, so I got in and got out. Now I have completed the Expedition. Thanks to everyone who replied. This is a great resource for information, and encouragement. Thanks again.

Can't use portal gylphs - quest related? [Question]

I believe I have finished the artemis quest line and my catalogue shows all the glyphs. When I go to a portal all I can do is request the address or activate the portal. I can't input glyphs. If I activate the portal and go through I end up on a world with some "buildings" that have big rings on them but don't seem to do anything. I'm unable to call my ships and can't go back through the portal. To get back I had to reload a save.

The only primary mission I have is Patterns in Time. Not sure if that is the reason I can't use the portal properly.

Any ideas?

Can't interact with sunken Exotic ship! [Bug]

I found a crashed exotic thats underwater in Euclid, Ikir II, and once I got to the area I saw the ship but can't interact with it. I've saved, reloaded the save. I've reloaded the game and switched Multi-player on and off but all with the same result. The ship is there on my screen, but I don't see it with my scanner and I can swim right through it like it really isn't there.

Any ideas to get this thing? It's a very nice ship and I'd love to add it to my collection.

Notes on my Haunted Playthroughs [Information]

So, my current playthrough is haunted. Found a cursed item on a derelict freighter, and on my way to hand over the logs, I found another one. Now, this wasn't the first playthrough with a haunting, so I had some idea of what to expect. Many, many hours later I have a cursed item in my pack, and in each and every starship's hold and even one in my freighter. Anyway, a few observations. Despite the blurb saying it would follow you to the next galaxy, resetting Atlas seems to clear the cursed attribute. This is why I started a new playthrough, as even 50+ hours after reset (with items in hold) it still had not re-triggered. Hmm, need to run a playthrough and quickly finish the Atlas questline, then see about getting cursed in the new galaxy. Maybe if that happens, it will go from new galaxy to the old galaxy and back. The haunting effect seems to be tied more to the ship you first experienced the effect in, then to your character. While all of my starships will yield the effect, it happens 5 to 10 times more often in the fighter I was using when I first acquired the cursed item. The actual value of the cursed item seems to make no difference. More testing is required.

Well, that's all I can think of at the moment, but if I notice anything more, I'll add it to this post. Feel free to add your observations as well, the more the merrier (or the creepier, as the case may be).

Confused about race / faction / guild standing [Question]

Construction Limit (Cannot Build // Construction Limit Reached): Discussion [Discussion]

I know there is a limit of 20,000 building components per save, but what is the reason for this? I understand a limit of 3,000 per base for uploading in order to keep frame rate/crashing in check, but what's the reason for 20,000 per save?

I think a limit would be best implemented in a singular system because you dont actually have to load an entire new area within a system. I dont think having, for example, 50 bases total in 50 systems (1 base per system) each with 1000 building components would be an issue because you have to load up a whole new system between each base.

I can be completely wrong with how this works in regards to performance. If anybody knows why this limit is implemented the way it is please share, as well as any other thoughts.

Building is my personal favorite part of the game and I know lots of others feel the same. Having this building limit really "limits the game" for a lot of us.

New player questions [Question]

So a few questions as I have been playing for a few months and now have cash and nanites to get whatever I want.

I read about "heavy" fighters. Is there an actual class of fighter that is considered heavy? If so what are the stat differences?

Do alien multitools have a pistol or rifle version? Or are they all just alien? For a dps monster is alien or rifle better?

For living ship there is any way to get an economy or conflict scanner? While the options of weapons are less the only thing I really miss exploring is the scanners.

You can have 6 multi tools and 6 ships in your collection?

Thanks in advance.

How good does NMS get on an Oculus Quest 2? [Question]

I picked up a Quest 2 recently and I've been having a lot of fun with the native apps, and Google Earth VR is amazing, but NMS really seems to be a stretch. I'm running a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, which I realize is several years old now. (CPU is a Core i5-3330, 24 GB RAM).

Is it worth upgrading to get better performance, or is the Quest 2 going to be too limited by its bandwidth? Using the Oculus link cable it's totally unplayable. With Virtual Desktop it's much better, but the resolution reminds me of playing the original Doom on my 486.

I haven't been anything like a serious gamer in over 20 years but I might be willing to upgrade my rig if I can get NMS working well enough in VR to be properly immersive.

Every update/upgrade made No man's sky more and more amazing but hello games need to address the UI controls and visuals. [Suggestion]

I'll start saying i'm in love with this game, the sentinel update is amazing.

I'm a console player, so i'm using a pad on my ps4 and today i had a rough time trying to get a good friend of mine to learn the basics and how to use everything on the game and I noticed (my god) I COMPLETELY IGNORED for a long time how bad the UI design and controls are, first the controls are not meant to be used with a pad, it's a friggin mouse pointer which makes everything HORRIBLE for a console player, just having to move the stick to use the menus is pain, second, everything gets in your way, the floating info is too god damn big for every item to the point where you have to hide the hud to be able to have a not so horrible experience building your base.
