Dear Sean/HG: I humbly request if possible that you increase the maximum number of Starships one can own. The current limit of just 6 is killing me. Thank you for the consideration=) [Suggestion]

With a Bazillion types of procedurally generated Starships available - from all the different types of Haulers, Fighters, Explorers, Shuttles,... to the different types of Exotics, such as Squids, Mosquitos, etc,... to the Living Ships, to the Custom Ships, such as the Golden Vector, etc, being limited to just 6 seems very underwhelming, and can be frustrating. 6 seems disproportionally low, especially compared to the maximum 30 Frigates for example. Really, I keep just 5 Starships so I can have an open slot for flipping crashed ships, etc.

As a Day 1 Player with 2,365.2 Hours Play Time at the time of this writing, I can say one of my favorite things to do is to hunt for that perfect Starship, to build a specific fleet with a theme. This is one of the top things that adds to NMS' replay value for me personally.

I would think increasing the number from 6 to 9, at the very least, would be very feasible, since there are already 9 Landing Pads on Freighters. Or maybe the number of Landing Pads could be increased to facilitate even more than 9 Starships?

Appreciate you taking the time and for the consideration. NMS is truly my Desert Isle game. I cannot express enough the gratitude I (and so many of us) feel towards all of you at HG for your continued development of the game, not to mention all the free updates! A TRUE Labour-of-Love! THANK YOU!

Question [Question]

About a year ago I bough No Mans Sky Beyond used, and, the disk is clean, no scratches or anything, but every so often, especially when i try to do the story or investigate ruins, my game crashes, and won't let me load up that save again. Does anyone know what's going on? I'm on Ps4 and I play offline.

Need clarification on ship spawns [Question]

I'm currently hunting for a long-nose heavy fighter.

I know systems have a select number of fighter designs that can pop up.

But does this mean that if I see a non-heavy long nose fighter and a heavy non-longnose fighter separately in the same system, that the two designs could mix together into a fighter with both of these traits ?

What should I do in my new save? [Question]

Recently I was forced to make a new Xbox account that I will be mainly playing on, and I was wondering what I should do in this save, I finished the game on my last one but haven’t done much outside that in terms of side quests or upgrading my stuff, I’m going to trade my new character my old golden vector and living ship so that isn’t a problem, but I wanted to know if I should try something different like play on hard mode etc.

Base disappeared, base computer, wires and terrain still there [Bug]

I haven’t played for a while, and discovered that my oldest base disappeared. Only the base computer and some wires are left. The base was a bit inside the ground, so the ground modifications are still there too. My other two bases are still there. Do I have any hope of restoring it somehow? I already reloaded multiple times..

200 Hour Review [Discussion]

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, but have continuously put it off because every time I’ve sat down to do it a new update comes out or I discover a new side to the game. I think this alone sums up a lot of what I want to go over in this review. Despite the bad wrap this game got on launch, Hello Games has done an absolutely amazing job at showing how a game’s launch does not define it.

Overall my experience with No Man’s Sky has been overwhelmingly positive. I did not play the game on launch, only watched YouTubers play it because I lacked the hardware to play it. I bought the game around thanksgiving last year after dreaming of playing it for years. That first “E initialise” was one of my favourite moments I’ve experienced in a game. Through every second No Man’s Sky has kept me captivated and entertained without fail. From the smallest on the terrain all the way up to the Freighters gives this game something I’ve found very rare, a proper sense of scale.

I would also like to point out the massive amount of choice you have in game, what to build, how to upgrade, where to go, what ship to fly, what multi tool. The sheer number of choices really encapsulates the sandbox aspect that so many players look for in a game.

With each update Hello Games has continuously added more and more quality, meaningful updates to the game. So many games that I have played in the past have had a problem with releasing updates that only seem to add to a game but in reality are just reskinning and re-releasing old content. Not with this game. I have not had an update yet that failed to significantly expand and add to this already amazing game.

Those being said I do have a few small things that bother me. The biggest is the inability to change the colours on certain things in game (ships and multi tools), but I understand this is most likely to create a rarity in the ships that...

Hey does this game have cheats? I mean for Xbox one [Question]

I mean it might??? I wanted to ask here before I checked online (to see if anyone knew if it did before I checked how to open them if it does) Anyways if it does and if no one knows I will make a second post on this subreddit for how to open them. And I may make a subreddit to help people But just know that the game is constantly getting updated on Xbox so this may not be constant or if it doesn’t have cheats it might get them in the future. So please keep that in mind when your awnsering. It’s like getting updated like almost every month

Sentinel Pillars could be a tease for underground dungeons, and how such randomized structures can be implemented [Discussion]

I mean c'mon. Don't tell me the hole at the top won't lead to something bigger. At first I thought the hole at the top was to tell us that sentinels come out of that hole and are distributed across the planet. However, the animation for the force field literally shows pulses going downwards. Also, the hole isn't big enough for the larger sentinels to fit in.

The only way for HG to have randomized enemy structures on planets is to have them underground, since having a massive building on the surface of a planet with random interiors would most likely tank performance. Underground dungeons are a smart way of implementing such things. This is a similar approach to how they handled derelict freighters. You find a structure on a planet, it takes you into an underground room. You interact with a console and the door to the dungeon slowly opens. While the door is opening, the outside planet deloads so that the dungeon loads on its own instance.

TLDR; Sentinel pillars have a hole at the top of them that fits the players, and is practically screaming hints at us that we can go in which will lead to a randomized dungeon of sorts.

Minimum effort change, no impact on FPS, great impact on experience in game [Suggestion]

Hi fellow Interlopers,

many of us look for some more "expansion on exploration". Now the cool thing would be to see a bit more of weird value ranges for variables of the procedural generation algorithm. But, given that the Switch needs to be able to handle the game and no one want's their bases disturbed, here is some humble suggestion.

Text, just add reasonable sane text!

Like in "Reading stuff", currently the text bits on exploration are so glaringly "random" that it isn't fun to read them, even trying hard to "pretend" they make some reason. "x %" of "random element", and "y %" of "even more random text bit, element". is not fun to read, when you go to "Explorer" to read a bit about the Planet you are walking on. :(

Unfortunately the same is a bit obvoius (trying to be polite here) for any other random-generated text message.

As it is only text-generation, maybe a bit of a look at adding some coherence, actual meaning (Semantics, there i said it), this shouldn't have an effect on the FPS at all, but it would provide a great deal of immersion to players (like me), who like to springboard their imaginary view of the game from the leads it gives us (was great Fun in the Starflight Games, where you just read the EVA messages and imagined the rest).

Maybe get a Writer (eg. the text bits and some decision tree(s) or Taxonomies to make them at least "believable" ) for that random texts, with a bit of background on general science, technology and maybe Drama :)

Because, at least for me, NMS, in the Endgame, goes toward a Text Adventure (2000+ hours since day one)

pirate version of freighter? [Suggestion]

i like many of you let my imagination run wild when theres an impending update. i really try to think of whats possible within the framework of their engine.

i could see them adjusting the aesthetic of a freighters to feel more like a pirate ship. then the expeditions you send your fleet on have a more pirate-like bent.

if not, im really hoping we get a freighter update of some kind at some point even if its just more basebuilding components. you still can't add windows.

Survival mode people out there? [Question]

Just settled down on a glacial planet with storms, I like storms. Just looking for anyone else who does. I am chilling in Aptarkaba Galaxy right now and I'll be chilling here for a bit. I'm working on a build and a new settlement but I'll be exploring the systems around here very soon. I usually try to build something in each system. I'm not starting a civ, just want somebody to chat with while we claim our chunk of the universe. Just be 18+ atleast, I have discord for those on PC.

Are there any optimisations for the game that I should know about? [Question]

I have everything on lowest settings and so on, but the game still ranges from running fine to running at such a low FPS it makes me not want to play. What I find most strange is that it ranges from fine to unplayable on a day to day basis, so I feel like there might be some settings or things that I'm not seeing

Should I resettle? [Question]

I found a really nice planet and a nice little spot to build with gas and minerals nearby. However I never have used electro magnetic power before and I’m planning on making this a big base. Should I resettle to find electro magnetic power first or are solar panels and bioreactors good enough to fuel a full base with hydroponics bays, exocraft, furniture, etc.

Solo Nexus missions are the definition of frustrating and tedious. [Discussion]

Don't get me wrong, I love the game - have probably 200 hours at least on PC and I'm starting a permadeath run on my Xbox...

I don't remember Nexus missions being this sucky? Maybe it's just bad luck / I'm too early but in a recent example I did the rescue mission, took the thing to the decoder, but I had to kill sentinals guarding the decoder... With the new tougher sentinals healing etc and me just having a boltcaster this was basically impossible.

Last one I did ended up with biological horrors... I had learned my lesson and gotten the blaze javalin, but even after killing plenty and mining their eggs I was still on 0/14 eggs! Eventually had to bail cuz was afraid of getting killed and was getting nowhere

I know, I know, your supposed to do them multiplayer, bit goddamn it I don't have anyone to play with and I want that sweet quicksilver 😅

Sorry if this get's asked a lot but a question about what system to play on. [Question]

I was browsing steam and saw No Man's Sky on sale and I haven't played since release so was bombard by all the updates making me excited to play it again.

The question is I already own the game on Ps4(I have a Ps4 Pro now but not Ps5) trying not to spoil myself to much there are a lot of comments about mods which makes me feel like PC might be better.

I have a somewhat older computer a 2016 Alienware laptop with 8gbs of ram it still can run most things but struggles with framerate on high graphics games or setting.

I don't mind buying the game again at all(They seem to have done plenty of work to justify it) but not sure if my computer is enough of an improvement over my Ps4 Pro, so would it be worth it for mods or should I just play on a big TV on my Ps4?

Message won't go away [Bug]

This is getting very frustrating. I've already submitted several bug reports to hello games. This has been going on a few months now. While all other gameplay functions as normal, it's still a nuisance. I have the settlement "Sentinel alert level high" message stuck in the bottom right corner. I've tried literally everything I could think of. Warping to a new system, turning the game/console on off, uninstall and reinstall the game, check for updates. I'll even sit in my settlement for several minutes at a time and hope maybe they'll show up. Still no sentinels anywhere. When I select a new mission in my log, it won't even show the new message in the corner. So I am unable to view complete mission objectives. Nothing I do makes it go away. Is there any way to push this through so hello games sees it, or just keep submitting reports?

someone gave me an eagle companion egg [Question]

I was in the space anomaly showing off some of my creatures with someone else. Suddenly he showed me an eagle. One of those really big fast birds that you aren't supposed to be able to tame.

Exotics vs fully upgraded fighters/explorers [Discussion]

I have a fighter that is very highly upgraded (max inv and max tech slots) and an explorer nearly there. Both have mostly S-class and a few A-class upgrades.

I also have a squid that isn’t as upgraded.

Can someone tell me the advantage of an S-class Exotic versus either a fighter or explorer (for their respective purposes)? Is it just the Exotic has better base stats and is a jack-of-all-trades but the fighter would be better for combat, etc?

Trace of Metal - Progress error [Bug]

Hi ,

Upon trying to complete the mission of ''trace of metal'', Ive been stuck at this point and cannot properly proceed. Ive went to investigate the sentinels coordinates, i find the Pillar and as soon as i approach it (50u), the marker just resets and i have to take a few steps back to scan the pillar agian, whenever i approach it , it happens again. I have destroyed the pods connected to it, i killed the waves of sentinels around it and the node says its still secure.I saw videos that when you apporach the pillar panel, the mission has to begin and when killing the sentinels and there is a counter of how many remain, something that doesnt happen in my case.

If there is any solution or any way to bypass this, please let me know.

Last time there was an update... [Suggestion]

Someone posted a sub saying "HG, please charge us for the next update!".

It got downvoted. We all love NMS and one of the thing that drives that is the devs' passion and commitment to the community. Sean said in an interview "maybe we're just terrible at business".

They are a small team though, and I'm sure they do need our support here and there. Here's what you can do: Buy their other games (Joe Danger, Last Campfire) Buy copies on other platforms Buy NMS as a gift for friends (especially whilst it's on sale right now) Spread the word Keep the love

I'm about the buy Joe Danger myself for my phone now, and I will always be loyal to HG for their amazing passion and commitment. Their next game will surely be in my game library the moment it hits the shelves, and whatever this update is, some people will be happy and other won't... can't please everyone all the time. But, personally, I love this game and this community and I am one satisfied Interloper. Keep up the good work, HG!

✔ Verified base build limit, all platforms: 16k [Information]

Some time ago, when I was relatively new to the game, I was happily building along on my PC and received a “Cannot build – Construction limit reached” notice on the screen, unable to place more parts. This ended up spiraling into a large effort to understand base-building dynamics in the game, using save editors and some scripting. I found, without question, that the base building limit was 16,000 base parts, spread across all claimed base computers and your freighter base. I posted my findings here on reddit and eventually posted my script on github for others to use.

Since that time, I've seen some folks continue to share a different number of maximum base parts - 20k is the common number - and I've tried to share real numbers from actual research to keep truth in circulation.

Building is an important part of the game for me. Casual base-builders are probably not going to run into the limit; it's typically going to be serious builders. For that reason, I want to be sure that people have the facts about the game's constraints so they can plan correctly, and squeeze the last bit of creativity out of a save.

So, in recent months, I saw a few instances of a new piece of information being shared on the interwebs:

The base limit for PC is 16k, but console users can go up to 20k. (Just to avoid this being shared further, i'm going to spoil it here: that's not right.***)*

Now, I don't have a console. I couldn't refute this statement, not even a little. What I could do is draw upon the community to verify this.

I like to hang out in the official NMS Discord, so I asked for assistance from folks there. And that crew, being the helpful bunch they are,...

What's the point in Crashed Freighters? [Question]

I've found loads of these but never get anything even close to good for them. Just repaired all 6 caches and got a few Starship Launch Fuel, about 29 nanites and some other pitiful base materials. That's nothing. Those materials aren't even worth the effort of pulling the trigger on my Multi Tool, never mind landing my ship or getting my hopes up. In fact they're detrimental materials because they're added to my inventory and I have to then discard them. I've never had anything better. Even the Damages Machinery has a chance to give you an Upgrade module. The wiki says that the Distress Beacon starts a secondary mission but that's never happened to me. I've checked every mission in the Log, looked around for added waypoints on the planet and... nothing.

What am I missing here? It seems there should be something cool about these things other than the spectacle of a giant crashed ship on the landscape. It's like I'm missing a hidden entrance or something, it just doesn't make sense.

They can be found all across the galaxy, but are more common in outlaw systems. The Solar-class starship comes with unique technologies for a fast and efficient Pulse Engine. All ships now come with a high-capacity cargo inventory. The starting size of the cargo inventory varies according to ship type and class. The ship cargo inventory can be upgraded at the starship salvage station. The maximum number of saved ships has been increased from 6 to 9. Players may now change their primary starship from the quick menu while in the freighter hangar. The companion management quick menu option has been moved into the ‘Utilities’ section of the menu while flying a starship. Summoning other ships, including the freighter, now has its own dedicated sub-section of the quick menu. While on a planet, players may occasionally see groups of frigates enter the atmosphere and pass by on their own missions across the universe.

New ships! [Discussion]

Hello fellow travellers, maybe I’m the only one asking this question…. I love this game and its amazing that we continuously get updates.

New update giving too many pirate raids? [Discussion]

Soo I just opened up NMS today and started playing in the new update, when a significant problem made itself known. The homeworld I've established for myself is in a critical conflict system, which means a LOT of pirates. Before the update, this wasn't a problem, as I'd only really get a bounty to hunt down every few minutes while I was in space and the occasional freighter raid. However, now there's a new pirate raid every few minutes while I'm on the surface, which gives me little to no time to do other things like mining resources or expanding my base. They're so frequent I literally cannot do anything without another raid starting while I'm doing it. (The worst part is the two main bases I have on the planet are right next to structures.) I nearly died in my exocraft because a pirate started attacking me!

Don't get me wrong, I'm liking the new update so far, just the pirate raids are a little... extreme, at least on high conflict systems. I think it'd be more sensible to have pirate raid intensity go up as opposed to frequency. High-conflict systems still have rare surface raids but the pirates are more powerful and there's more of them per raid. That way you can explore a high-conflict system without getting bombarded by pirates 24/7.

On that note, is there any way to reduce pirate raids? Idk what to do, my homeworld isn't anywhere near as feasible now that my settlement gets bombarded by pirates every 30 seconds :(

Have they fixed inventory yet? [Discussion]

I haven't played for a year or two but this new update looks sick. Just wondering if inventory is still such a trudge? Like I would always get to the initial space station etc but at that point just making basic stuff you still had to create like the baby versions of a + b to get to c (which is now just the standard baseline) so it felt like you had to have 3x the inventory space (which costed a fortune for an inch more) just to have the now standard buildable piece of necessary equipment. It got to feel like no progress was never being made and the foothold never improved and actual progression was as mountainous as it was on the first planet. I felt like I never got a leg up which I think was 90% inventory being so sparse.

found an infinite units glitch in the new update (Outlaw) [Bug]

in short, items that are sold to, say, a galactic trade terminal from your ship's cargo inventory are not taken away and stay in your inventory, but you still get the units from the sale. it looks like this is infinitely repeatable with any item. it's not infinitely repeatable but you still get a lot of sales of that item and you can always switch to a new system.

New content, new PD start. Gotta say... [Discussion]

...the update to in-atmosphere combat is awesome. So far I've taken out 10 Sentinel Interceptors with the stock Pillar, but it's actually been a challenge. If I didn't have a supply of sodium to recharge my shields, I'd have been toast.

Looks like my early game money making/blueprint gathering strategy is going to need some adjustment because if you hit a secure site (manufacturing facility, resource depot, operations center) with the starship, the Interceptors are called in right away.

Not sure what the challenge will be like with a fully upgraded ship, but it's a lot of fun with the starter so far.

I can do nothing right now. How do I get rid of this? I just want to explore and they've made it impossible now.

Btw, I'm in systems with low/no conflict so I really don't get it.

As a player who enjoys flying explorers, I really hope we stumble across solar ships that don't look like variations of fighters. Also, are solar ships mostly one color!? [Discussion]

The player base seems to be obsessed with fighters, which I'm totally fine with, but I'm definitely more explorer-centric. Hoping for a lot of variety in these solar ships (of course it's too soon to tell).

Also, a lot of these screenshots suggest solar ships come in a solid color whereas most legacy ships have more variation... I like that!

Outlaws update unavailable [Question]

I can't download the Outlaws update on xbox series x.

Anyone know a fix? Ive hard reset the xbox numerous times, which usually works for updates to show up. Now it does exactly nothing

New Infinite Nanite Glitch [Bug]

Day 1 so of course there's glitches! This time with the new cargo hold on ships. Put a few upgrades in there (I use x-class) and try to sell them. You'll get the nanites, and keep the items!

#

Solar Ship bug? [Bug]

Flew into Outlaw Station with my Living Ship, bought a Solar Ship (bought and added, not exchanged). Take off with Solar Ship, find that it has taken the entire inventory (spewing vents and other LS-exclusive tech + preexisting loot in my LS included) and overwritten the design of my LS.

TLDR: Bought Solar Ship outright after docking at station with living ship. My living ship now looks like a Solar Ship. Living Ship itself nowhere to be seen.

Can we start paying for these please?! [Discussion]

Ok, so like many at the beginning I was let down. I am a sucker to making my own expectations far too high. This game launched rough, won't beat that bush anymore.

But, can we all agree that the devs have redeemed themselves enough? Can we please start paying for these expansions, that in truth are larger than some games. I think they've given us enough for free. I'm not saying these need to be $30+ each but I do feel the devs deserve something. The game is a literal night and day from what it was.

I love free stuff don't get me wrong, but when Sega charges $2 for freaking blood dlc in a game where it should be included regardless then these fine folks deserve a few bucks at the very least?

What do you guys and gals think?

#

Should I return? [Question]

Should I come back? I had a shit ton of progress and then my hardrive got corrupted and I was back at square one, it feels like so much.

It’s been like a year now and even though I don’t have a base, frigate, my ships, weapons, etc. I want to come back but I’d hate to have to work for it all again

#

what these updates are building up to (theory) [Discussion]

No Mans Sky: Empire.

Build your own faction, your own fleets, control your own stations and establish your own outposts and settlements.

I think each empire will fall under certain categories such as...

Mercantile - with a focus on trade routes and producing profits, Mercantile empires would have the hardest starts with pirates raiding your fleets and bases and other factions f-ing you over with red tape, but extremely rewarding, you can assign portions of your income to also hiring mercenaries to protect your assets but cannot produce your own troops, contract tge construction of vast trade fleets capable if bringing in millions of credits per day, buy and bribe your way to victory and dominion!

Conquerors - the warlike faction and most prone to large scale space battles and wars against enemy factions, the rewards are great but so are the risks. You can fuel your war machine with plunder from conquered systems and by taking over their local industries, but beware, defeat can be costly. Be the greatest warlord the universe has ever known.

Empire - law and order above all else, with a focus on expansion but also building up and maintaining conquered areas so they don't fall, all the universe must witness your enlightened vision, spread out, incorporate trade, industry and military assets into your dominion. Similar to the conqueror, but with a greater emphasis on domestic issues. Hail the Empire!

Outlaws - you are people of freedom, unshackled by oppressive laws and ideas of morality, you take what you can from who you can, why? BECAUSE YOU CAN! operate from a central base or command a nomadic marauding fleet of cut-throats and outcasts, your life is short and exciting, forever hunted and forever the hunter.

Each player could control vast multi-system empires, make your own laws from things like requiring passports to tarrifs on trade, make...

Squadron Full? [Question]

Trying to hire a pilot to join my squadron, but it says my squadron is full (don't have any yet). Anyone else getting this error?

#

Help me like No Man's Sky. [Question]

Hi! I really want to like NMS better than I currently do. Let me explain my current relationship with the game: I follow the updates (it's nuts the amount of work they put into them and how quickly they churn them out), wait for 3-4 updates to release, then install the game, resume my last playthrough (survival), play for 10-ish hours making absolutely no progress then quit and uninstall.

I don't know if I'm just lost, or in the middle of all the playstyles you can have I'm just missing the point, but the game feels like it doesn't really have a purpose (other than reaching the center, which feels like a way to distract you from the fact that there is no goal). I'm not trying to bash the game, I genuinely want to understand the game, because it's looking more and more awesome, but I really don't know what to do with it.

My other problem with it is that I don't know if I'm not engaging deep enough, but I don't really find the game's systems rewarding: finding new planets is cool, but once you get there you just have to land once and you've basically seen the whole planet; combat is not really great; exploring is cool but it's just for credits (and there's better ways to get credits); the base-building quest-line just feels like a massive grind. I'm really hoping this is just a case of engaging with these systems in a way that's too superficial but whenever I play I find it hard to dig deeper because it may be that there's nothing deeper there.

#

Playing It Now [Information]

Just finished the download, started and was immediately attacked by pirates at my settlement. Trouble is I shot a sentinel drone right before, so I had pirates and interceptors all over me. Rockets are ineffectual against shields. Opening the four slots for a squadron will set you back 21k in nannites. No idea where to recruit as I’m only 5 mins in

#

How it started [Discussion]

I remember when NMS came out, I was so excited for it. Played the heck out of it. The negative reviews were something to behold, but I still loved it, it was such a chill game. It could be as tough or easy going as you wanted it to be.

I don't get to play as much I'd like anymore. The first couple of updates upset me. They pretty much made me feel like they reset my progress, with the universe resets. Finding drop pods was so easy when it first hit! Now they're harder to find, but it still keeps the game fun, and interesting.

Hunting creatures is fun. Sometimes it's a pain in the but trying to scan some of them, but still an all around good time. I play the game vanilla. Mainly because I don't know how to apply mods. I don't even know if there are any, but I think there may be.

Well, good enough for now, just wanted to put a few thoughts out there.

is there a way to set a marker on a different ship i own? [Question]

I just started a couple days ago, and i found a free ship, i added it to my fleet but then left in my old one since i figured i was just going to sell the new one since it was ugly, but turns out the new ones engine was broken so i can't summon it. is there a way to turn on a marker on it?

Looking for Advice on how to Play this Game [Discussion]

I'm a collector. I want to explore, see it all, and find my favorite ships. But now this game has expeditions and seem to encourage starting new saves but I want to have everything in one place. How do you guys handle this? The last thing I wanna do is the campaign again to unlock all the glyphs in order visit coordinates. Is there a limit to the amount of saves you can have? Can you have everything on just one save?

Thanks in advance,

Newest update makes it incredibly simple to farm nanites [Discussion]

I got the latest update, and I thought I'd tried it.

I found my first pirate system, and then purchased crate loads of black market suspicious technology and weapons. I probably have about 150 of them right now.

I then made my way to a regular space station, opened a few of them and then sold them to a technology merchant.

When selling them, it looks like I got about 50 nanites each, but they are actually selling for several hundred each. I guess that's a bug?

It seems like I can make about 50,000 nanites per hour with this newest update

#

Lost void egg? [Question]

I was given a void egg by another player at the anomaly a while ago and it gave me the Starbirth quest, but because I haven’t been playing long I couldn’t reach the system for the quest so sold the egg. Now I can’t get rid of the quest in my log and it’s really annoying me, any fixes? (My own fault I know!)

Create your own expedition. [Discussion]

If you could create your own expedition on any theme you like what like it would be?

I'll go first.

Expedition: Economy

Expedition Time: 1 month.

Missions in no order:

1.) Gather 100M Units

2.) Gather 10k Nanites

3.) Upgrade your ship to S-class

4.) Make a base of a tropical planet with at least 50 parts in it.

5.) Gather X amount of Activated Indium from harvesting via Mineral Extractor.

6.) have a home in an abandoned system (This does NOT need to be a unique one)

7.) Crash the market.

new quest bugged [Bug]

I started the new "Under a Rebel Star" quest and it bugged for me instantly. It says that the distress beacon triggered an alarm and there are unknown sentinels remaining, but there is no marker anywhere in the system. I found a system that had the skull icon on the galaxy map but nothing is happening, and pulsing around hasn't done anything to fix it. Anyone else have this happen?

#

How about the economy in Survival mode reflects the added difficulty? [Suggestion]

Everything else is more difficult resulting in more of a realistic or Immersive take to the games mechanics, why not have the economy do the same? No being able to just portal to someone's farm and get trillions right away. Everythings earned while actually using all the new things added over the years, it would give it all more meaning and more of a purpose compared to what's offered presently.

Edit: and best of all it wouldnt interfere in the slightest with anyone looking for more of a traditional experience on normal mode.

Ships technology slots and general ship inventory questions. [Question]

So I’ve got a C class hauler and it came with full 8x6 general inventory so I’ve maxed that but in my technology inventory I only have 5 ones and can’t expand it when I went to a space station but my fighter ship has more than my hauler but less inventory. My questions are 1.can I upgrade my ships class and get more technology slots purchasable by upgrading its class, 2. Is there anyway to get more technology slots or will I have to try find one that has both max general and technology by pure luck? I have played the game for ages now but It’s not clear, at-least I haven’t seen anything about it, thanks!

#

How to come back to this game without being overwhelmed? [Question]

Last I played this game was years ago and I really want to come back to try out the new updates however I had finished the main story with my character and bought several exotic ships so I don't want to roll a new character unless it's absolutely a must.

When I try to get back into the game it feels so overwhelming since it tries to get me into base building and then there's a whole bunch of new quests appearing. Worst of it all is I don't know which one to follow. I don't even know if I'm supposed to continue racing to the center of the universe again and again while doing so. Or if I should just settle somewhere nice for a base?

Is there a way I can get back into the game without being overwhelmed with options? I'd like to log back into my character and make my way forward from the end of the living ship update which was the last time I had played.

#

Now that our bases can be attacked by pirates, lets discuss ground defense [Discussion]

I've been seeing on twitter that people are already getting invaded at their base! This made me think of strategies to defend before even getting into a ship. Although it would be great if we had turrets, here are some ideas for my base defense.

  • Guard towers: place teleporters in each tower to defend from all angles

  • Mech patrol: Since the mech suit can operate independently it should defend against aerial assault right?

‐ Vehiclular turrets: station the exocrafts around the base and use them as manual turrets

  • Tower bases: build upward so aerial attackers can be shot from the windows.

  • Cave bases: A more passive route and avoid pirates by building where ships can't access.

One thing I'd also like to test is the freighter shooting down pirates if its summed near the area. Kind of a reach though. Any other ideas?

Outlaws update, All items in cargo slots of all owned ship completely gone? [Question]

SteamVersion

Just updated to outlaws, my last save was middle of November 2021, haven’t played since then, spawn in my freighter, every single one of my owned ships has lost all of their cargo as well as the upgraded cargo slots, I believe I may have lost a good handful of item in my “general” slot too but not totally sure.

Anyone have a fix to this or encountered this issue?

freighter layout reset questions [Question]

I want to reset the inside of my freighter but before I do I have a question.

1.should I pick all of my plants first? 2. What happens to my storage and the items inside? 3. Should I build storage at one of my bases to make sure my stuff is safe?(I only have storage in my freighter)

Threat detected [Discussion]

Anywhere and everywhere. I was enjoying the storyline/s and moving along at my own pace and now everywhere I go I'm being attacked. Feels like a completely different game after this update. I figure a lot of people or even most people like the change but I was kinda digging the easy going gameplay as I learn the more advanced stuff.

#

Long hiatus from Day one launch... where should I begin [Question]

Looking for suggestions on where to go from where I am. I purchased the game on Day 1, and enjoyed it for a while. Like many however, there were some frustrations, but my biggest was that I think I got into a "story glitch" where I no longer had a purpose or path with the story. I could never find that next step in the overall arch to get to the center of the galaxy and found myself aimlessly roaming around to various planets. So I stopped playing...

Cut to a year ago, I built a brand new gaming pc to play other games, and remembered seeing how many new updates had come for the game and how great the praise was. I think I went in one time since I got the new PC but was a bit overwhelmed by all the new items to mine and craft. I also don't think I could re-connect my story arch so not sure if that's just broken or not.

Anyway, looking to get back into it maybe, plus my 4 yo LOVES space so I think this is something we can explore together, but not sure where to begin again.

Thanks in advance!

Best way to start playing [Question]

Hey all Si last year I played the game a bit, finished the campaign and that’s about it. So I’m wondering what’s the best way to continue playing this game, with all of its updates? Thanks!!

#

Want to get back into the game, need some advice [Question]

Hi there,

So it's a long time since I played NMS and I would love to get back into the game with all this new content.

I haven't tried companions, sentinels and all the other new stuff yet, just because all the 'figuring out' that needs to be done to obtain all this is keeping me away from the game.

I know there is a creative mode, but I still would like to play the regular mode without needing to figure all this stuff out for a long time.

So is it all that complicated, or is there an easier way to do it all?

#

Mouse Movements Causing Huge FPS Drops [Question]

Reinstalled the game today to try out the outlaw update and started having a weird issue I can't seem to resolve. The game runs a steady 60FPS at all times for me except for when I move my mouse, my frames drop to 10 until I stop moving it. I thought this might be related to the camera or mouse so I did try plugging in a controller and had no issues there with no frame drops when moving the camera with a controller.

I then went to test my mouse with other games to see if something changed from last night but, I'm not experiencing the issue in any other game. I also tried a different mouse and same issue. So, I don't think it's mouse related.

As far as I can tell, the mouse inputs in NMS are causing my frames to drop and haven't been able to figure out why. I've lowered all settings to the lowest, adjusted the resolution to lower settings and even tried another monitor.

Anyone have any idea why my mouse movements are causing this issue?

#

Future addition idea [Suggestion]

So, recently I was talking to a friend about NMS, trying to get them to coop with me. While talking about the game I had an idea.

As someone who falls in and out of Elite Dangerous I was thinking how cool it would be if NMS had bigger ships that were multicrew.

Your or your friend is the pilot and the other controls the guns and refilling Shields.

I feel like they need to add A LOT more to the space around planets or dead systems to add a level of danger outside of the random scan or bounty.

#

How do I use the galaxy map to find a planet in my current system? [Question]

I picked up a quest to scan minerals from some unknown planet in my current system. The game text says to find the planet using the galaxy map, but that just seems to let me navigate between systems. I can't find a way to click on or view details of individual planets within the system, even in free look.

Am I missing something?

(I know this is a total newb question. I tried searching this sub and the larger internet, but couldn't figure it out.)

#

no man's sky and ship classes [Question]

I'm a long time no man's Sky player but I haven't put that much effort into upgrading different ships classes for a long time. But with the new solar ship type coming out I had a question for the community.

When I first started playing day one the trade-offs were simple, the different classes had trade-offs, bigger slower klunker ships had significantly more cargo space whereas these smaller Fighters had less cargo but more maneuverability and combat ability.

But now, considering you can upgrade your space ships with as many slots as you want is there any reason to have anything but a fighter or exotic and spend some time by upgrade slots for cargo and Technology? I get having different builds with different weapon builds but is there any other benefit to some of the non fighter or exotic class ships..

Why would I fly my hauler anymore when I can have the same amount of capacity in an exotic ship with premium stats?

#

Any good samaritan? [Question]

Ok, this might not work. Can anyone gift me No Man's Sky on steam?, i live in a country where the economy has been going down for the last 7 years, plus when buying something from a foreing country you have 65% on taxes. So if anyone is willing to gift a game to a stranger on the internet, my steam name is mamauevol.

Did the locked flight controls change recently? They're responding really strangely compared to the last time I played. [Question]

Last time I played was only a few months ago. I started a new game today for the outlaws update, and the second I started flying, something weird was happening with my controls.

I always play locked normal, first person. When I try to use the mouse to control where my ship is facing, especially when moving forwards or backwards, my mouse does some weird shit.

If I accelerate and move my mouse horizontally back and forth, (looking left to right), my ship looks up and down at seemingly random speeds while it turns left and right. In the past, doing the exact same thing would result in a slow, stable motion - the ship turned left, then the ship turned right. It wouldn't move up or down at all, because I was only moving my mouse from side to side.

It feels as though someone's hacked my computer with the sole intent to randomly move my mouse up and down when I'm flying my ship. It's really strange. I checked the tethered controls, to see if it was the same, but they're working fine. It doesn't feel like the "locked" mode is just bugged out and it's actually still tethered, either.

Here's a small diagram of what I'm experiencing - in this example, I'm moving my mouse from left to right. The response should be that the starship turns to the right.

This is obviously very frustrating, because if your destination is on the right side of your screen and you have to turn directly to the right to travel to it, you would expect that moving your mouse to the right would achieve that. Instead, that motion leaves your ship looking pretty far above or below your destination, even though it was directly to the right of your cursor. I'm not really sure if this is a bug. If it is, I'll change the flair. Is this just how locked controls are now? I really have no idea...

Vr mod support? [Question]

Does the vr version of the game on steam have mods supported? I’ve played the game modded on flatscreen with a world generation improvement mod, but whenever I play the game on vr, the planets switch back to being the regular world generation, is that a problem with the mod or is the vr version just not supported for mods?

Is there an option (other than Creative mode) to dial down the pirate encounters? [Question]

I'm getting so many pirate battles right now since the update and it's kind of annoying for me. This even happens when I'm on foot.

I get that combat is a necessary part of the game and enjoyable for many people. I like getting into combat sometimes too. But I also don't want to be forced to use a mode which gives me unlimited health and resources, zero building costs, and all the warp drives right off the bat in order to play the game. I like having a sense of progression.

I get it, maybe I'm just whining about change. But these battles are happening so often, it feels like one of these things that devs would code into their game to catch out people who steal the game and post about their experiences on Reddit. (I didn't; I have my Steam purchase email as proof and I'm playing it directly from Steam.)

Is there an option that I'm missing?

#

PSA: you can make 4 billion credits and 5 million nanites in about 15 minutes now. Beware: heavy exploit! [Bug]

So, it is very simple: the new cargo slots on ships do not actually delete a sold item. What does that mean? You can keep pressing sell over and over and over again. It will collapse the economy (for said item), but say you have a stack of something that goes for 20-60 million a pop, you will reach the 4.29 billion likely before hitting rock bottom of the economy demand. Even then it would continue selling for 5-10 million a pop, so you can just keep pressing that button.

This also works for nanites. Fill your cargo hold with sentintel upgrades. Sell and clickedy click over and over again. With a stack worth around 5k nanites, you can make like 5 million nanites like that in about 15 minutes.

Now, this is an oversight and likely will get fixed asap, especially if they read this post, but seeing how many out there use exploits anyway to amass nanites or money, I thought I would share. I found out by accident when I stored some sentinel upgrades for weapons in there and wanted to sell them.

For those of you who did not reach end game levels yet: I recommend you do not do it. Farm nanites the usual way, kill sentinels, nothing exploity about it and more fun and it will at least keep the grind interesting for your journey than bypassing the entire game like that. But then again, everyone how he or she pleases I guess. :-)

The raiders… non stop action for sure [Suggestion]

Downloaded the update and wow…

The game is now a non-stop slugfest. Wave after wave of raiders in space and in the ground. I was not able to land without the facility coming under immediate attack. Small and large facilities. Pulse between planets 30 seconds away? 2 fights. Landing? Fight your way down. Harvesting fungal mold? Shot to death on foot by raider fighters.

It is extremely fun and entertaining, but perhaps the rate of spawn is a bit off.

#

Ship speed a has radically been altered in this update. [Discussion]

It appears that with the newest update that ship speed calculations have drastically changed. Before the update my fighter could hit 50k units boosting I'm space. Now it registers just over 3k. I think the speed calculation has changed somehow but ship still feels just as fast as it did before. Also my ships that have zero upgrades have received a significant boost in base speed while at the same time showing a lower speed on the HUD. Not sure if this is a bug or a rebalance to bring ships closer together in performance for the flight combat revamp.

#

Two ways to find pirate systems [Information]

Go to a space station and use the teleporter. Any space station entry in your list that's now pirate-controlled will say "Clearance Not Granted" at the bottom. You'll have to warp to the system (not sure if you can portal to it; haven't tried that yet) but at least you'll know which one it is.

The other way is to have a conflict scanner installed, go the galaxy map, flip the filter to "Conflict," and look for red stars--pirate systems are equivalent to conflict 3. There'll be a little skull icon instead of the crossed swords on the system pop-up.

Amazing First Planetary Pirate Raid Experience [Bug]

I had no idea that the update dropped while I was asleep, and so was happily going about my business when I first hopped on this morning. I'd left off last night exploring a planet (actually tracking down an underwater mystery), and so picked that up again today. I hopped in my shuttle and was cruising low over the ground, on my way to the next part of the quest when suddenly I was being scanned by pirates!

"Uh oh. That's a little weird," I thought. But no big deal. I could handle pirates.

Then the pirates' jump points formed in front of me and...

They jumped right into the ground.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature, so I'm listing it as a bug for now. But I laughed good and long about that.

Can wingmen be upgraded like frigates? [Question]

About to go on a hiring spree but wanted to know a bit more before getting some pilots for the squadron. Should I be hanging out looking for pilots with S-class ships? If I hire a pilot with a B-class etc will it upgrade over time, via nanites, or not at all? Will the pilots’ attributes increase with number of missions/encounters?

Wonder if anyone has done a bit of hiring yet.

#

Nanite Farming in Outlaws (not bug) [Information]

With Outlaw systems now selling Suspicious packets (particularly tech/weapons), often for cheap, it makes it incredibly quick to buy a bunch of packets, open them for the X-rated modules, and sell them to the trader. (Also a better way to get modules than to spend the nanites on them).

You can also use the trader to see which modules will sell for more (and are likely to be higher quality), and use those for your own use.

Issue with Trace of Metal [Question]

I was at the pillar the drone wanted to get disconnected from, but when I interacted with it, the quest marker suddenly changed to say the objective is in another system. When I went to the galaxy map, I couldn't find the right system. I teleported back to every system I've visited since the Sentinel update (minus the Nexus mission ones because I don't unlock them as teleport locations), but the target system doesn't appear around any of them.

Is there any other way to locate the target system?

Also, are there even any rewards after the four hardframe upgrades?

NMS VR running like a slideshow. [Question]

Hi guys,

I've just downloaded the new outlaws version of the game onto a new PC with a 3060 and a ryzen 5800h, 16gb ram. Runs perfectly in flatscreen but in VR its literally horric, no other VR game runs this poorly so I don't think its a system issue. I've played NMS on my 2 previous laptops with a 1060 and a 2060 and they both ran the game better than this, any advice?

Crazy thing just happened [Information]

Just logged into a save I made yesterday at a regular space station and now when I logged in I'm smack dab in a pirate space station! So, I'm guessing HG didn't just make new pirate stations or takeover abandoned ones, they just switched some of the existing ones over to the pirates!

How do I become a Pirate? [Question]

How do I become a pirate? I received a mission but everytime I go near the mission icon it changes its location, (a skull icon), I dont know if its that

#

Outlaw update [Question]

Am I correct in saying you need an economy scanner equipped to tell which systems have outlaw space stations? I’m desperate to try and find a solar ship and want to maximise my chances of finding one.

#

I NEED help guys. PLEASE [Question]

I found a freighter in Euclid Galaxy that I desperately want but the only issue is I can not afford it. Is there anyone ANYONE who can help me. It is a the perfect model and colors but I can not afford it as I have said. I will post info on where it is later because I have to go right now.

#

Quick thought about Snuggling [Suggestion]

Not sure how people think about Snuggling but IMO I think hello games should rework it so that you can only sell smuggled cargo to special POI on planets surface-as it is right now when you enter a system you can rush right into the station without local security ever having a chance to scan you which removes the "High Risk-High Reward" part of smuggling. Also the one time I DID get scanned(doing a mission) I only had to hand over ONE unit of my illegal cargo which is quite pathetic tbh as a punishment(you should only be allowed to drop ALL your illegal cargo or fight back). Anyways that's just my two cents on the matter. Please let me know if you disagree and how you would go about balancing smuggling...

#

anybody got a spare walker brain? [Question]

I've tried like a million times to get the walker brain, so I can get the conflict scanner but keep dying at 3 sentinels. If anyone has one going spare I'd greatly appreciate if you could help me out. Thanks!

#

The amount of pirate attacks need to be toned down [Discussion]

Trying to build a base on a planet and I'm getting attacked literally every 5 - 10 minutes. I assume the frequency of attacks is based on the conflict level of the system. But this is crazy. At this rate, level 3 conflict zones are unexplorable on foot sice you have to keep calling your starship every 5 - 10 minutes to fight off pirates.

#

Just a thought [Discussion]

I really love that Hello Games has given No Mans Sky so much love and support over the past six years and continue with the regular updates to the game adding new and interesting styles of play. This newest DLC adds a new ship type and it looks really awesome and it has some really cool mechanical features to it. I do however wish that they would add the same mechanical elegance to their existing roster of ships. The solar sails on the new ship open in spaceflight and retract when you are near the surface (which is super cool). I would love to see the existing ships with similar abilities like a hauler with engines that tilt as you near the surface of a planet. I guess I'd like them to fix the ships that we have before they give us new ones with better mechanics. That is all

#

Twitch drops [Question]

Do they start today? Or tomorrow? Patch notes say today but the streamers I've asked say tomorrow

#

Do you usually start a new save with each update? [Discussion]

I started playing in the Pathfinder era, and every time a new update comes out, I delete my old save and start fresh. I usually enjoy the ritual, and build from scratch and eventually work my way to the new content. I did this most recently with the Frontiers update, which I loved. I haven’t played the Sentinel update yet, and I plan on playing the new Outlaws update today, but is it worth starting over from scratch?

#

Anyone else’s pre-update ship get worse after the update? [Question]

My S-Class ship with all S-Class modules used to go over 20,000u/s in space. I know there was a cap on how this actually translated to real speed, but now it’s only 2,000ish u/s. It definitely feels a lot slower now. And even though my maneuverability is 956.8, it turns really slow and has gotten so clunky. Did they just make flying clunkier, is it a bug with my ship, or do I need new upgrades? Mostly I’m just curious if ship flying sucks for the time being, or I need to adjust something.

#

Ending of the Game question [Discussion]

So, as the title suggests, I think I am near the end of the game or so my research states. The current mission says to reach the centre of the galaxy but when i bring up the galaxy map there is no mission symbol. In my research, it says there should be one or a waypoint so idk. Help or advice please! I currently dont know how to get there and i have been randomly looking around for like 30 mins...

#

Found a hack already Larval Cores! [Bug]

Hey Gang,

so I just happen to load up the update and play the Pirates. It seems as though I have found a glitch that I did not see before the update.(During my Lunch break)

I was back in my Freighter and started selling Larval Cores and they never disappeared after selling it to the Galactic Trade Terminal. Of course if you keep selling it brings the price down. But I pulled in an easy 150Mil credits in a few minutes.

Pretty sweet and still have my 24 to sell when the market comes back up.

I sort of feel bad, but well thems the brakes.

#

Enemy Shields can make Combat Impossible now? [Bug]

I was exploring and had a "Pirate Attack on Nearby Structure" event pop up. I hopped in my ship and shot down the pirate that was attacking a sentinel supply depot.

Then, not being one to waste the opportunity, I raided the supply depot myself.

Incoming sentinel interceptors!

Okay.... 4 of them. It was a lot of work because Sentinel Interceptors are now protected by shields that IMMEDIATELY start going back up. I burned through about 600 Sodium trying to keep my own shields up while being constantly pounded. This is exacerbated by the fact that you can't destroy an interceptor before your photon blasters overheat. (I wasn't in a fighter, just my explorer, and so didn't have tricked out weapons.)

Interceptors defeated!

Then 6 more spawn. UGH. I noped out of that fight as fast as I could.

tl;dr

Sentinel Interceptors now have shields that go back up AS SOON AS you stop shooting them. That means that if you break off shooting one for TWO SECONDS to maneuver or let your guns cool down, their shields are back up to full.

This has got to be a bug, right?

#

Social media [Question]

What is the social media for no mans sky?

They’re so often releasing amazing updates for this game , I’d love to follow them some where to keep up to date

I can’t find them on Instagram

#

Outlaws 3.85 isn’t available on Xbox Series X yet it seems… [Question]

Is anyone else having this issue? Do you think it could be because I’m in Australia and they are releasing it in a staged approach region-by-region? I still only have the sentinel patch as the latest and there are no game updates available. I have Game Pass Ultimate AND I own the game. I want a cape goddamn it 😂

#

New update not showing up on steam? [Question]

I was looking to log on and see what the new update was like but steam wasn't showing an update for nms. I reinstalled the game to see if that would help but nothing so far! my partner has an xbox and the update downloaded no problem. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else!!

#

Freighter Idea for this update! (Or the next) [Suggestion]

Imagine being on a frigate when it’s on an expedition, or even bringing the freighter itself…and doing specific missions from system to system…that would be the most epic thing ever…like a procedurally generated storyline… the most star trek stuff I’ve ever thought of for No Man’s Sky.

and in order to pick up new “freighter expedition” missions you would need to either get an upgrade in your freighter scanner or install a new specialist terminal like a Cartographer or something where they give you coords to follow in a chain, and every stop along the way randomly makes a new, expedition-only missions like ‘destroy pirate planetary base’ - there would be an atmosphere battle and then a ground raid. ‘Destroy Enemy Freighter/Frigate Squadron’ - pretty obvious but either you’d also have to target the weak spots on the enemy freighter, or fight a strategic freighter battle doing the same thing only in the freighter cockpit from sending out crew wingmen squadrons to firing beams at specific points.

This would be so cool.

List other ideas if anyone has any

#

What are solar ships good at? [Question]

What I mean is fighters are good at turning, haulers with shields, explorers with jump range, but what do solar ships do? They look like pod racers so are they really fast? Or do they just look cool?

#

Squadron question: Do we know what determines the eligibility for recruitment? Also, do NPC ship stats really determine effectiveness in battle? Also, a few things I've learned [Discussion]

I know it's still early, so I'm sure there are a ton of questions yet to be answered, but I thought I'd give it a shot...

I noticed that some NPCs do not have the option to recruit. This appears to be random unless you've already recruited a specific ship / NPC. You can never recruit the same ship / NPC (to build a fleet of one specific ship). Not sure what determines which NPCs are recruitable though...

Another thing I noticed was that you can reload to your heart's content in order to obtain a higher class recruit (ship), but the actual pilot's stats will never change regardless of ship class or whether or not you're saving and reloading to reroll RNG. The ship stats will change based on class, but the pilot's stats never will.

Hope this helps, hoping to get clarification as well.

Cheers!

#

No longer enjoying this game. [Discussion]

Way too many pirates.

I was on a nice paradise planet swimming deep underwater hunting the last fauna specimen. I then find myself being roasted to within an inch of death by pirates. Later, I park myself in my ship while I went off to make a coffee. Come back to see my ship with about a 0.5 mm of shields left and still taking a pounding. Barely made orbit and into the Anomaly to recuperate.

"Warning. Threat detected" over and over and over and over. There is no peace and quiet to explore and enjoy the traveler life anymore. Not happy.

#

What do people think about space combat now? [Discussion]

I've been getting my butt whumped like never before. To be fair, I've not applied very many upgrades to my ship, despite being an S class fighter. I never needed to. Enemies died so fast, we're easy to hit, it was all pretty casual.

Now, it's so hard to get through the shields, and I think that's the real problem: they recharge way too fast. Basically, if I can't kill them in one pass, and have to turn around again, then I have to break through the whole shield again. And why don't MINE recharge so fast??

I like that the weapons have been rebalanced, and that they have different strengths, but atm, it's just too hard. Maybe it'll be easier when I apply upgrades that just weren't necessary before, but it's not now.

IMO, what needs to change is that either enemy shields need to have much slower recharge, or ours need to be faster.

Also, now that it's important to have multiple weapons, I would really like to be able to remove the standard photon cannons. Just one more thing to switch through as I try to equip the weapon I need.

#

Any way to default on my debt? [Question]

I only played for a few hours when the settlement update hit, did a few quests until I hit the first timer, and then went to play something else and forgot about it. But now that i've come back for the Outlaw update i've discovered that in my absence, my half-built settlement has gone 10 million units into debt. I'm also noticing that i'm not getting as many units as I should from rewards/trading (I cashed in 392k from a freighter mission and compared my money before and after, and I was about 40k short) so I have a feeling that my earnings are being somehow garnished to incrementally pay off this debt.

Is there any way I can just nuke/disown this settlement or clear my debt? I make way more money from hauling freight (and now contraband) but I don't want this backwater town siphoning my ill-gotten profits away.

#

Trouble finding the system for the new mission [Question]

I probably need to just wait for a fix, I always seem to have to wait a week to join in with an update, but maybe one of you has a fix.

So, started the new storyline seeking the outlaw folks. Get to the point where I need to locate a system. So I follow the current mission trail to where it ends. In that system, the mission objective is telling me I still need to find the system, so I go back to the galaxy View. But there's no more trail leading anywhere so I have no idea where I'm meant to go.

Any ideas?

#

Looking at the game. What's there to do other than exploring? [Question]

Hey all. Off an on Elite Dangerous player who's growing tired of it (especially with the console abandonment).

The Outlaws trailer has my interest, but I've always had it in my head that NMS is first and foremost an exploration game. That's not really my jam, but it looks like there's a lot of other gameplay there that I haven't seen before.

So what are some other things to do in the game? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

#

Quest item blocked off [Bug]

Hope everybody’s enjoying the new update, it’s been great so far but I noticed that when I went back to complete “A Leap in the Dark” quest that the waypoint I have to go to has now been blocked off by a volcano. Is there any way to fix this?

#

PS5 update issues [Bug]

I decided to jump back in to NMS after the new update. I came back after sentinel and logged 100 hours and was excited to do it again, but I can’t update my game.

I’ve installed the ps5 version and I can open it up but I ca t play because it’s not updated. I’ve downloaded the update but it won’t install until I copy the ps4 version to my console but it won’t copy ps4 version.

At this point I have a game I can open but can’t play because of the update. My disc has no scratches and I’ve cleaned it. My disc drive has no issues with other games. So it seems that this update has ruined my ability to play the game anymore.

Did anyone else have this issue? If so, could you fix it? I want to be a pirate.

#

How exactly does the auto lock-on aim assist thing work? [Question]

I’m playing PCVR with an Xbox controller when flying, and I have no idea how I’m meant to use (what controls?) it or what exactly it’s meant to do?

And tbh I could do with the help - trying to do the rebel star quest but just getting my ass handed to me by that squadron of 4 pirates. I can get them on zero health but they just keep recharging their shields while I’m spinning around using up all my sodium…feels like they need to tweak the balancing on enemy ships a little…

#

Planetary pirates are annoying as hell. [Discussion]

I’m literally trying to harvest resources and every few minutes I have to use half of my ship’s launch fuel so I can KILL THE FUCKING PIRATES. It’s literally every FEW MINUTES. I hate farming launch fuel as well as carbon so I can make my base in peace. This is annoying. I just want to enjoy this CALM system without getting blasted by pirates 10 times a fucking hour. Worst decision in this update by far. I should go out to fight these guys on my terms not on theirs. At least make them go away after 20-40 seconds.

#

PSA: Solar Sail ships [Information]

They can be easily found in outlaw stations

To find one, in the galaxy map look for pirate controlled systems, marked by economy scanner as black market. Conflict scanner shows as pirate controlled.

So far, I've only seen two classes, C, B, and S. They are nearly the same price (average 2 million).

To see the solar sail without taking your new purchase to space, examine it in the starship upgrade menu in the station.

Locate Crashed Freighter Mission Glitch [Bug]

I'm re-playing the story after beating it on a different platform to get the glyphs quickly. In the mission "The first traveler", there's a part where you have to locate a crashed freighter. When I get out of my ship to locate it, the mission icon disappears and I can't use my analysis visor to find it. The issue isn't finding it though, the game never updates the mission even when I found it. Is there a fix to this? I've even tried restarting the mission.

#

Do vesper sails override the launch system recharger or do they stack? [Question]

While upgrading my ship I noticed that they have the automatic recharging effect, so I was wondering if they stack with the launch system recharger or if there’s no extra effect for having both of them?

It’s probably too early on the update to know for a fact, but maybe someone tested this already, if not I might have to test it for myself

#

Wish me luck [Discussion]

I found a system with two paradise planets with no sentinels, and 4 other well balanced planets with no or low sentinels, and I’m terrified of logging on when the update finishes to find it has suddenly become a pirate system

#

is Under a Rebel Star bugged? [Question]

So I got the new mission "Under a Rebel Star" I got it from an abandoned starship that gave me coordinates, I found the location and it told me to land to begin search but there's nothing to further the mission. Target sweep mode just states that location services are unavailable and that my current mission isn't detected. I'm kinda lost at the moment so any help would be appreciated.

Expeditions are great tailored gameplay experiences but never being able to replay them again is disheartening [Discussion]

I did 1-4 but fumbled on Exobiology. I figured that its fine I can just wait until they release it again but after looking into it I'm surprised they said the expeditions redo was a one time thing. I just can't imagine how disheartening this must be from a new player prospective... Never able to experience those missions and missing out on cool rewards in basically a "singleplayer" game.

Really killed my vibe for the new update and ruined any chances of some of my friends playing this game.

#

Economy is acting kinda rare tho my knowledge isnt much. Is this my fault or is this a bug? Help plz. [Question]

So basically ive been doing the oxygen + Chloride method to make some wealth for some days. The thing is, it always has been normal arriving to a strong economy system and having stocks of the raw principal materials, for example, oxygen between 1.4k and 2.2k per trader in the trading stations and between 1k and 2k in the terminal, and between 2k and 5k of ferrite dust to put one more example.

Today i log on to find out that ANY system that i go, doesnt matter if its wealthy or poor whatever, stocks of any item doesnt get above 200/500. That means i cant literally buy anything, i have to buy things like ferrite dust or uranium or whatever in packs of 300. Is this a bug? Did i fucked up something? I would like someone to give me some light in this... is so frustrating. Thanks!

#

Can’t continue new pirates update mission [Bug]

I don’t know if anyone else has ran into this issue yet but doing the new missions I got to the rendezvous point at the derelict freighter and nothing happened. No pirates, couldn’t continue. So I left the area thinking I’d come back and it’d work but now that I left the area, I can’t even find it now. Doesn’t mark it out on map or anything. I’ve gone to another system and back, I’ve restarted the game and still nothing so I can’t continue on past this point at all. Any pointers or am I just gonna have to wait it out? Besides that. New ships is pretty cool 😎

#

performance of ships [Question]

solar ships are cool but did they nerf the performance of other ship types? my ships fly a lot slower. I was getting 12k plus u/s in space and 750 u/s in atmosphere but now its no way near that.

#

Does ship flight/handling feel any different now? [Question]

Wondering if there are any noticeable changes to flight feel, esp related to combat (with lock on targeting, etc).

Unrelated, anyone on PC/Steam know if the 1-sec lag/stutter is still there when leaving a planet's atmosphere? Been waiting for that optimization since many updates ago.

#

in game voice would be cool [Suggestion]

Not in the normal way but using the voice tab we already have. I have to send a message request to a player in the vicinity either through your suit or ship.

#

Recruiting a scientist trouble [Question]

Trying to unlock all the glyphs through the main story and am stuck here. My marker is pointing me towards a place thousands and thousands of LY away. Is this normal? Every space station I stop at has each recruitable person other than a scientist. Any ideas?

#

Derelict Freighter Pirate Mission [Question]

Hello fellow interlopers!

The derelict freighter you find at the beginning of the pirate mission has disappeared, and I cannot seem to find it again, so I cannot progress with the mission. Has this happened to any of you? What did you do?

#

im stuck [Information]

Im stuck on a planet that i literally cannot find a single rock that drops normal ferrite dust to get ferrite dust for ship fuel. I need help

Also sorry if this is the wrong flair i couldnt find an appropiate one

#

Pleeeeease tell me this is a temporary glitch….!!! [Discussion]

With todays new update, my once peaceful and idyllic home base is now being interrupted with, “Warning, threat detected”… followed by, “Hostile Attack Vector Detected” every minute or so followed by my being fired upon and taking damage from ships flying overhead. This NEVER happened before. Oh please Hello Games, tell me this is temporary, because I will quit the game if this doesn’t stop!

#

Living ships are in desperate need of an update. [Discussion]

They are falling behind with every update and they have been untouched since their release. The new update has buffed every ship class except living ships yet again. They still can't scan systems, can't get expanded inventory without performing exploits, and have less upgrade options all around. So what is the point of these ships anymore other than a fashion statement?

#

New nanite production possibilities with Outlaws 💰💰💰 [Information]

The new Outlaws update, and the pirate-controlled stations it brings, offers some unprecedented nanite-making capabilities.

So, let's start with one assumption: units aren't a problem. Hopefully, you're expanding cobalt or chlorine, shooting salt rocks, crafting things, or farming activated indium. We're not worried about units for this conversation; let's continue.

The dealer seated at a table outside the bounty's master's hauler will often sell hadal cores and/or larval cores. Well so what? Sure, they refine to 50 nanites apiece. You'd need a lot of them. That's why farming larval cores from abandoned buildings doesn't get a lot of use among players: it's too slow to feel worthwhile.

Well, these dealer guys on pirate stations often sell 50 or more of one of these. In the first station I looked at, the gek guy was selling over 70 of each. IKR? Hopefully, you're seeing moneybags like I did.

So, a few million credits later, I'm sitting in a pile of cores. And I thought to myself that this could be big. Time for sciencing - experiment time. Here was my process: start at base teleporter. start stopwatch. teleport to pirate station from list. run to the seller by the bounty master and buy them out of hadal cores and larval cores. return to teleporter. repeat steps 3-5 three more times (4 total stations). teleport to base (could have stayed on the last station to shave off 15 seconds, but meh. home sweet home.) refine everything using the portable refiner. stop stopwatch.

Total time lapsed: 8.63 minutesTotal nanites earned: 14,800 nanites/minute: 1715

This is The Way, folks.

#

I need some fresh insight please. [Question]

So recently I have been playing NMS on the Xbox app on pc and have run into issue after issue, and was wondering would it be worth it to restart on steam so that I don't have to deal with issues like super slow updates, the buggy Microsoft store and etc. Sometimes the game doesn't even open and its totally messed up, so I was wondering what over people would do in this instance. I have just about 100 hours into my main save right now.

HOTAS support [Discussion]

So now that HG have updated space combat I’m wondering what the chances of hotas support being added purely for starship and eco craft control is? Would be pretty awesome dogfighting through a mountain range with a joystick

#

INFINITE Sell Bug!! Already Contacted Hello Games. [Bug]

This is exactly what happened. Changed out ship to the pre-order ship. When to local space station. Selling items at Kiosk. Any items in the Cargo hold of the ship sell normally, but do not delete from your cargo hold. You can just click sell that thing as many times as you want. Price at the station goes as far down as it can to -80% profit, but that does not matter much on a big stack of gold. Made 100,000,000 in 15 minutes. Changed out to different ships, and same thig happens. Its only at the station kiosk though. Tried on planet kiosks and it works there as intended.

Stay clear of selling cargo at stations unless you want to economically break your game.

#

Ships [Question]

Let’s say I find I abandoned ship do I still keep the original ship I had or no

#

Maneuverability in space is trash right now [Bug]

Anyone else getting next to nothing for boost speeds etc? Hitching and janky ship animations when coming out of pulse jump?

I do have a couple mods that allegedly do still work, maybe that's the problem and I'll turn them off.

#

This update is wack. [Bug]

My settlement keeps getting attack by ships about every 3 minutes and after a while my entire settlement disappeared. Just a large flat area full of Gek walking around. Wtf bruh.

#

infinite money/nanite glitch [Bug]

So... the outlaw systems sell suspicious packets, right? Well, they cost units. Not nanites. This means you can buy all 50 (of each), open them, and sell for extreme profit.

Base Building with Outlaws [Discussion]

So I noticed today that the friendly star system I made my new base in, was updated to a pirate controlled system. Kind of a bummer You guys think there’ll be an update to kick out the pirates and free the system? I really don’t wanna deal with the enemy shooting at me from the sky

#

Next ships? [Discussion]

Now that solar ships have been added, what new gimmicks or ship class would you all like to see?

#

Question with new update [Question]

So I just hopped on with the new update and I got a pirate raid. Nothing too hard, only a few ships that I nailed down pretty easily. Game tells me "Pirate Raid Defeated." Not even 5 minutes later, another one spawns. I'm not sure if this is just me or a bug, but it will be rather irritating if I have to do this so often. Text spoilered just in case.

#

unable to download base and other bugs I've noticed. [Bug]

I started playing this with my dad and brother about a week to five days ago. I have encountered many bugs or issues in that time. The first and most major issue for us is that I am unable to download my brother base and therefore unable to actually do anything at his base as half of it never loads properly. He is able to upload just fine, but I can't download his uploaded base. I can fly there just fine as we are on the same planet, but when I get there most of the base it missing or gone. Even things that I added to the base myself aren't spawning. Any suggestions on how the get that issue fixed would be great

Other bugs I've encountered are new to this update that came out today. Most notably the fact that if I'm helping a settlement against pirate attacks and even so much as graze the green trailed ships (ally) they suddenly target me. So now I'm fighting on two front one ships vs pirates and my own Ally's yes if I shoot at you you should fire back but there should be a threshold like half the ally shields so they no it wasn't just a misfire wth.

need help with Under a Rebel Star [Question]

I'm trying to do the new pirate quest, Under a Rebel Star. I've reached the marked coordinates and I've used the beacon that came with it, but I can't find a marker to take me to the rendezvous point.

#

Can't enter any portal coordinates on any portal that I find or used to frequently use. [Bug]

Hey guys. Left the game a while back, hopped in at the very end of the last update and was super excited to play more today when Outlaws released. Have been having a great time - but any time I go to a portal, it not only lets me activate the portal, get the address, or leave. Seems like my portals are locked for some reason. I've unlocked all the glyphs and frequently used them before I took some time away from the game, any clue why this could be happening?

#

Ummmmmm [Bug]

So I drove my ship to a pirate station, BOUGHT a new solar ship I like, teleported back to one of my bases, summoned my freighter, went in and the very own ship I used in the beginning was gone….I didn’t exchange the ship I’m pretty sure…..did this happen to anyone else? Luckily I manually saved before I did so….I guess next time I will need a random ship to do this?

outlaws quest [Question]

I'm kinda confused as it seems like ended abruptly after using the fake passport, am i missing something?

Do Sail Ships = Sail Boats? [Discussion]

I may be overthinking this but with the new update being around pirates and outlaws, is the inclusion of the solar sail ships supposed to represent sail boats that most people associate with pirates?

#

Ship augmentation bug? [Bug]

Can anyone tell my why i get kicked out of the ship augmentation screen when I apply 1 augmentation?

Cause now that this happens I have to continue to go in and out of the outfitting terminal to just apply one module.

What kind of dumb ass thought this was a good idea?

#

'S' Class Solar Ship [Screenshot]

This one is for the boys, address provided. Maybe not the best but I got my first Solar Ship at 'S' Class, so I figured I'd help guys out. Address included.

This has not been upgraded or modified at all this is exactly how I got it. For around 2.5mil.

Not sure if it's common or not, but the only other ones I've seen were 'C' class. Hopefully someone finds this helpful. Have fun great exploring guys.

Squadron Upgrade Question [Question]

Let's say I recruit a B class pilot into my squadron.

If I upgrade them, is it also upgrading the class of their ship? Or does that stay the same? Or does that even matter?

Ship boost lowered after Outlaws update? [Question]

Apologies if this has already been asked and answered.

My pretty decently upgraded fighter prior to the update was hitting about 11k with boost. Now, after update with no changes to the ship from me, it’s just short of 4k.

Anyone else with a similar experience?

EDIT: Actually, barely short of 3k. 2.9k to be exactly. So cut nearly in 1/3.

Old expeditions [Question]

I didn’t have time for no mans sky for a bit, so I missed out on expeditions!! Is there any way to get the items, like somehow being able to do them? The cave creepers, holographic chart projector, bio lantern, trophy, and the eggs just straight break my heart

Idk if it's been mentioned yet, but the Outlaw update brought an easy nanite exploit with it... [Information]

Inside the Outlaw space stations there are 2 vendors. One that sells contraband, and one that sells suspicious upgrades. The one that sells contraband supplies the packages that scrap dealers sell for tainted metal, except for units now.. and they sell upwards of 70 at a time. The "goods" don't matter, but the "weapon" and "tech" ones drop suspicious upgrades that you can sell to the other vendor for nanites. So I've been going from pirate station to pirate station in my teleporter list and racking up those packages. They usually drop a few high value items to sell and get your invested units (plus some) back. I've been doing this for an hour and am already over 500k nanites.

Freighter Bases [Screenshot]

With the last update I saw a quite few abandoned space stations which have all now been turned into Outlaw stations. In the current update, when flying towards a bounty I get a message saying "a bounty has left their hideout" This makes me feel like we might be able to build bases on the derelict freighters in the future, Maybe they'll be converted into in space settlements in a future update. just an interesting thought. Also here are some pics and coords for new ships. A loop of outlaw stations were found around my home base located in Hastven

Since update: [Question]

Anyone else had some BAD frame drops? I tried loading up my primary save, and...it's bad, y'all. I have a beast of a system, but this game is running as though I'm on an old Atari.

Any thoughts?

My Thoughts about sMuggling(again) and combat. [Suggestion]

In my original post I accidently wrote Snuggling and received little actual feedback on smuggling. So I decided to remake the post after messing around a bit more with smuggling. Smuggling by itself is an actually pretty interesting idea if its handled well with a nice balance between Risk and Reward. The problem is, currently there is zero risk and high reward mostly because of the following:

When you jump to a new system you appear practically right next to the station-this lets you fly into the station and sell your supposedly illegal contraband at the main marketplace with no time for system authorities to probe you. I find it a bit silly to begin with that you can sell your Illegal contraband at the main marketplace in the system in clear view of any spectators with zero questions asked which is why I thought up a possible change/fix-

Stations in civilized space should scan vessels as they enter for illegal contraband-if illegal contraband is detected the landing ship should be forbidden access to the Galactic Trade Terminal until they leave the station again. If they try to immediately reenter still carrying contraband they will once again be locked out of the Trade Terminal. This would deal with a couple pet peeves of mine where you can just sell your Illegal cargo on the main Trading Terminal in view of everyone else on the station with no repercussions. ALSO this would make it so Smugglers couldn't sell their cargo immediately after warping into a new system increasing the likelihood of them being detected by a System Authority probe. This of course would mean you would need to be able to sell illegal cargo somewhere else-Maybe a less legitimate version of the regular trading outposts? Or perhaps they should add a "Smugglers" den into each system where you can sell your cargo at?

Similarly another issue is that you can just put all your illegal...

New player exploration [Question]

So I am wondering if there are still very rare or unique things that people haven't seen yet. I come from Elite Dangerous and I really loved exploration and finding rare sites and planets is that a thing in this game.

Living ship storage [Question]

Hey guys, I don’t know where else to put this so if it’s in the wrong spot please direct me to the correct place. I need one person to help me upgrade my living ship to full capacity using the space station glitch. Preferably someone who knows it or has done it before. Feel free to PM me on here if you’re gracious enough to help. Thanks!

#

If you die, do you really lose all your discoveries? [Question]

On some wiki it says we lose all discoveries not uploaded?? Does that actually happen?

If so we have to be REALLY careful not to die, because we don't upload things on general principle. (I like not being locked into the name we upload it as - and not locked into our name we used when uploading, seeing as we've changed names twice now since we started playing. Self-discovery does that.)

And is it different if you die in your ship?

I'm less worried about material items. We can get those back. We can make more. Discoveries... we can't.

Pirate hood - how the heck do you apply it? [Question]

So I've managed to talk to enough NPC's in the pirate station and was awarded the hood, but I have tried every spot in the uniform configurator and I can't figure out how to actually find it and put it on.

I've seen others wearing them in the anomaly so I know it's not glitched...am I dense? How the heck do you wear the damn thing?

#

I’m missing something here…. [Discussion]

Is anyone else bothered by how violent this game has become with the last two updates? I played for about 6 hours today and finally shut it off out of complete frustration. Every system…attacked, every trading post…attacked, every distress signal crashed ship…attacked.

I don’t get this, there are now three survival modes and creative (nonstop combat or no challenge mode). I just want to explore and enjoy the game and its nothing but violence now. All this time waiting for additional storage and the ability to own more ships and I can’t even go ship hunting as every trading post gets attacked as soon as I land, what’s the point of this?

There are countless video games all about killing, if I wanted to shoot guns all day I’d play something like Grand Theft Auto. I thought this was a game of exploration.

The New Solar Ships [Question]

Are the new ships just like the royal multi-tools that we only find them in C class and we have to upgrade them ourselves or can we find them in S class on stations?

#

Why are they still updating NMS? [Discussion]

Serious question. I've played NMS on and off since the very begining. I understand they failed in a lot of ways originally and are trying to redeem themselves, but why? With all the updates they've put out in the last two years couldn't they just have made a new game? How are they monetizing on this? NMS still goes for like $5 used.

#

2 player co-op? [Question]

Need some help with the sentinel storyline. [Question]

I've progressed to the point I need to access the pillar. I've fought off the waves of sentinels until it said they were deactivated and it turned blue, and I went to the pillar and tried to access it and the interface still says the boundary is secure and I can't use it.

What do I do?

Looking for a Particular Solar Ship [Question]

I have been portal jumping for about an hour in 2 different galaxies, I used this method alot when tryna find good planets, Multi-tools, cool creatures, and ships. I have been looking and I have not found not ONE black/chrome and purple solar ship. If ANYONE can even find me a solar ship like that then my GOD you'll be doing me a hell of a good favor

Traders stopped appearing on freighters (for me) [Bug]

I've played this game for 100+ hours and never traveled dimensions until today, that being said I knew the first thing i needed to do when I got to the Hilbert Dimension was that I needed to find a portal. In order to unlock said portal I required a Vy'keen effigy. The first place I could think of that provided the effigies were the traders that regularly appeared on my freighter. That being said, I've spent about 30-45 minutes in my freighter landing bay and not a single trader showed up. I then took a break from the game and watched a movie, came back and waited for a trader to show up. Yet again, almost 30 minutes later, not a single trader showed their face. I remember before this update they would very regularly come and go every few minutes but now? I can't get one to spawn fly inside my freighter for anything. I can only suspect that this may have something to do with the new update which enabled us to obtain 9 starships however I only own 7 at the moment (6 I had before the update and one solar sail ship I acquired today), however you can only have 6 in your freighter bay at a time, which was meant to leave room for these traders to spawn... yet I haven't seen a single one since the update. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

#

under a rebel star glitched. [Bug]

The space station did not spawn, for me to dock. Now I can't get the hoodie or continue the quest, I tried to go to a different system to reset the mission. But sadly I cannot reset it, what can I do?

#

Question [Question]

In the update, there is a section that mentions: "Expand your fleet capacity by unlocking additional pilot slots, or train your existing pilots to upgrade their efficiency in combat." How do I train my pilots? Also in the short video in the update page for the squadron section it shows a living ship that belongs to an NPC? Since when is that a thing?

#

Outlaw's Release [Question]

Jumped back into NMS after a few weeks to try out the latest release, Outlaws. After checking in on my Settlements and Flying around, it seems the Pirate Raids happen way too often, In my Settlement alone, I timed it and I get raided every 5 mins almost on the dot, have no time to just get things done or walk around before I have to run back to my ship and fight off a Raid.

Is anyone else having an issue with this?

P.S: The new Accessibility option to auto-follow a ship while attacking is great!!

New update and a Derelict Freighter [Question]

I had gone and followed the beacon to the initial planet, and after dealing with activating the initial first rendezvous beacon I went there and found a Derelict Freighter, I had blown up both of the Cargo containers and found nothing, and no pirates came for me after opening them. Could my game be bugged? What am I supposed to be looking for here? There are no communication transponders or anything. What do?

#

Why I love the new Solar Ships [Discussion]

First of all they have an absolutely AMAZING design and animation both with the actual solar sails and just extending their thrusters. The way they are designed looks like a cross between an N1 starfighter from star wars and a pod racer (both found in episode 1 the phantom menace) and just how the "science" behind them being that solar rays can be harnessed using "sails" really reflects real world science into a fictional videogame.

I will hunt down a decent solar ship but my heart will always belong to my prized fighter "The Claws of Air"

#

How do you escape relentless sentinels? [Question]

Just started playing. Got my ship repaired so I can get off the ice world. Just after landing on the second planet, I found a "sentient plant". I interacted with it and it had some kind of pearl inside. I took the pearl. Robots came out to kill me for taking the pearl. I ran back to my ship. The robots chased me into space. I'm out of fuel. Out of supplies to recharge shields. I've killed about 1000000 sentinels.. Am I doing something wrong? I thought the point of the game was supposed to be to explore this infinite universe. The first sentient thing I tried to interact with sent an unending mob of death to pursue me forever.

#

Is there any way to get pirates out of my home system? [Question]

Both my base and my settlement happen to be in a now pirate system. Literally every minute (this is not an exaggeration) my settlement AND my base keeps getting attacked by pirates. I can't go five minutes without going back into my ship to fight the pirates off. I don't want to resettle because I've been working on my base for a long time.

#

base lag [Question]

Hi guys! So I'm currently playing nms on PS4, and I really like to build bases on planets I like. I heard there was a maximum of 400 bases, while that's more than enough for me, I was wondering if building multiple bases (one per planet tho) would slow my game down?

I played subnautica a while back and building more than two bases was hell, made the game pretty laggy

#

My once peaceful, prosperous, Gek settlement is a warzone now [Discussion]

The location of my main settlement/base was turned into an outlaw system today and my settlement is constantly under attack.

I have 3 marketplaces and 4 landing pads so my settlement is essentially a trading post (I’ve gotten the exotic and 3 solar ships from sitting at my settlement), and it’s quite literally always under attack.

I started up my game after the update, and it was under attack by both sentinels and pirates. I thought it was really cool at first because I was experiencing the update immediately, but my main world is hostile.

I'm very sad fellow Interlopers... [Bug]

I have 5/mbps internet because of a cable problem. I managed to download the game, and now it doesn't run. I doesn't even open the game. From Steam. And I have a lot of hours in the game. On the same machine I haven't changed anything on my PC.

Thoughts on late game money sinks and caps? [Question]

I was wondering what everyone thinks about the current in-game Unit currency cap which I think is around 3 billion. Whilst this seems a large amount to newer players I suspect many people who have been part of NMS for the longer term hover around this cap now. It really isn’t difficult to get there quickly if you know the mechanics well.

I find it a little frustrating that money really has little meaning in late game and we could do with something to spend it on. Some ideas may be to transfer money into Quicksilver or perhaps other Nanites? What do you all do with your wealth? How do we keep it meaningful? The new update offers smuggling and mission rewards where you can gain more Units but when you’re at the cap it’s not really a reward to gain something you can’t benefit from?

The problem with the Units currency at the moment is that people end up doing things like giving millions away to random players in the Anomaly and possibly spoiling their experience.

Would be interested to read your thoughts.

P.S. Hello Games you are legends and this community is one of the best on Reddit a big thank you to all.

Can two base computer go to one electro magnetic area? [Question]

I have my base powered by a electromagntic generater, there is mining area about 800-900 away, I set up another base computer between my electro magnetic generater and the mining areas, and put down another electromagnetic generator. Two generates going in opposite direction, one to my base, and the other to the mining area. When I connect the wiring, the mining gets no power. I deleted the one going to the base, at first there was still no power, after disconecting the cables and redoing them a few time I got power to the mine.

Can I not use the same electromagetic area, for two bases?

Hope this makes sense.

Is there a way of mass buying inventory slots? [Question]

Basically what the title says, is there a way of mass buying inventory slots because currently I’m warping from system to system buying 1 inventory slot and it’s taking a while so can I do some reload auto save stuff and buy them again and again? It’s kinda annoying.

New to the game - Just looking for people to explore and have fun with [Question]

I’ve just started playing No Mans Sky on XBOX, it took a while to grow on me. I’ve been playing sea of thieves for very long so just wanted to see if this game can give that chilling and relaxed vibe, and man it’s just too good. I regret getting into it so late

But of course there’s so much to do in the game and it’s getting kinda overwhelming , with the new outlaws update , I’m really looking forward to some pirating with friends and all.

So if anyone is a new to the game like me or if anybody is up to squad up and play , that will be extremely fucking awesome. My gamer tag on Xbox is XCRIPSSXXOG. So just hit me up there or send me a message and let’s explore.

Suggestion: Make Living Ships a 'stealth' option in piracy and raiding. [Suggestion]

As it stands, living ships are fairly underpowered, even when fully upgraded. But I think this can be a feature rather than a drawback. The odds of getting scanned by pirates or by system forces looking for contraband should be significantly reduced when flying a living ship. They should even be able to run away from battle sooner - after all, their pulse and hyperdrive systems are quite different than the ones in regular ships, and maybe they can't be jammed as effectively.

This way, living ships would have a good place in the new Outlaws system - they're weak, they can't scan for economy or conflict, but they could be better able to get you through a smuggling run.

#

Galaxy map help [Question]

Hi guys. I started playing NMS a few weeks ago and am now around 50 hours in. I'm absolutely loving the game. I only play in VR. The one major struggle I have is with the galaxy map. There are some basic things that I just can't seem to figure out how to do.

​ How do I zoom out so that I can get a full overview of the current galaxy that I'm in? I've visited around 50 or so systems, and want to see where in the galaxy they are.

When I started playing I covered around 5 systems before unlocking a portal. This portal teleported me to some other part of the galaxy, but I have no idea where relative to where I was previously, and how far I've traveled. Then, in this new region, I explored a few more systems, and then decided to go to the black hole that I got the coordinates from the Anomaly. I activated the Black Hole as the active mission on the galaxy map, and started jumping from system to system. After a few dozen systems, stopping to gather materials to make more warp cell fuel, I remembered that I got the coordinates before going through the portal, which meant that for all I know I was on the opposite side of the galaxy!

​ How can I see how far in light-years it is to the goal? I couldn't see any indication how far away the black hole is, and when I select the mission to visit the next Atlas station, I don't see any indication of how far away I am from that either, or where on the map it is.

OK, I then teleported back to the planetary system I was on before using the portal. Once I arrived there, I saw the black hole icon a single system away. Doh! I then jumped to that system, and entered the black hole. I was so excited, my first black hole jump! .... only, when I popped out on the other side, the system I was in looked pretty much the same as all the other dozens of systems that I've been to. Underwhelming. The HUD did tell me that I traveled around 600k...

Finding squid ships- no cords ? [Question]

Hi I've been trying to find a squid ship for a few days now. My current strategy is as follows: Jump to a random T3 system and go to a trading outpost (T3 is just for finding s-class ships to scrap). Keep reloading the auto save until I see an exotic Repeat with a different system

Is there any improvements I could make to this basic strategy ? Also I've read that opulent systems might have a higher chance of spawning them, is that true or made up ?

Also how rare is a squid relative to other designs ? I know its about the rarest ship in the game but it also took me about a day and a half to find a specific fighter design even though I saw many royal exotics along the way so basic exotics don't seem that rare in the first place.

Please don't reply with coordinates as I don't enjoy finding things that way.

Duplicating Base [Build]

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you that I'm working on a project. Underground massive duplicating base. I know it sounds like something vanilla, but I don't think anyone has created anything like this, ever. It's still a work in progress and I'm trying to sample the base because I've surpassed the 3000 parts limit. As soon as it gets out and I upload it I'll post coordinates here. If there would be some advice, anything you would want to duplicate yourself or think that would really be useful to duplicate, just comment down below, Thank you!

What to do with derelict ships found on planets. [Question]

I've run into a few of these now - broken starships stranded on various planets. I've seen suggestions that you can do minimal repairs to them, just enough to get them flying again, then haul them to the nearest space station and sell them for scrap. What happens to my starship though that I'm leaving behind on the planet? How do I get back to it, or get it back to me? Can I just summon it on the space station where I sell the repaired wreck, or how does this work?

sentinel settlement bug [Bug]

so i got the "sentinels attacking" transmission, in which ive promptly returned to my base. spoon arrival, the sentinel forces had cleared and I went through the whole other transmission where it tells me to "search the battlefield debris for clues", but there is none? this is a creative mode save btw, idk if i just can't do the quest now? which is annoying because I can't expand my settlement until I do this quest so any help would be appreciated

thinking about buying the game (ps4), but I've got some questions [Question]

I've been following this game ever since it's release and I've always gotten close to buying it but I never did. Now with the game behaving had multiple updates I'm thinking about getting into it. But I have some questions.

1: can I build spacestations?

2: how grindy is it?

3: can I be an intergalactic pirate?

4: how is the base building?

5: how is this game for a solo player?

6: what do you veteran players think is the most fun to do or the biggest selling point?

What happens if I leave my settlers to fend for themselves? [Question]

I saw the update and jumped back in to try and find one of the cool looking ships.

I warped to a new system and got assuage saying my tutorial settlement was being attacked by sentinels. I figured I should probably help them out since I have very nearly got them out of the red, so I went there and defended them.

After beating it I ran into the overseers office and had a pirate attack spawn. So I jumped in my ship and killed them.

I landed and ran into the office to check my settlements status and had another pirate attack spawn.

I landed again and have had another sentinel attack spawn immediately and I'm pretty sure there was a pop up about pirates too, idk, I've paused it to write this.

So what happens if I leave them to it? I never really wanted a settlement to look after as I want to do my own thing all the time. Is there anything good about having one and if not can I get rid of it?

The tediousness of having to respond to random events instead of building something to deal with it is giving me Spore flashbacks.

Outlaws Update [Question]

Can't play because of the stuttering / low fps [Question]

I just bought the game, but no matter the settings I try I always end up having HUGE fps drops making this game unplayable for me.

I can run most games on High / Ultra these days, so I'd expect a game from 2016 to be able to run smoothly on my computer.

I'd like to play the game, but if I don't find a solution I will have to get refunded.

Any idea how to fix this?

Awakenings finding cache bug [Bug]

I joined a person's game last month when they were just starting and were still planet locked, no matter how many times I told them to finish the tutorial before playing together.

Upon joining I had my Awakenings quest reactivated (88 hours playtime in this game with biologic ship and access to every system).

Came back to play with the update to find a lot of systems to be inaccessible due to an anomalous signal.

Awakenings tries to get me to access a cache but the galaxy map seems to point to someplace who knows how far away and I can't restart the mission, I'm around 20 jumps in and still can't see where I need to go for this cache.

Anyone knows a way to get this solved so I can go back to exploring my game without these limitations?

Thanks in advance

Returning player [Question]

Hey all! It's been roughly two years since I last played, and with all the updates and whatnot I figured I'd jump back into the game! I do have a few questions though! While I know you can pretty much do anything, what would you suggest someone do and get finished in the beginning? (Started fresh!) Another question is, finding ships on planets. How rare/how common are these? Is there a good way to go about finding them? Lastly! Upgrades, so you mostly just find these aboard stations? Or is it possible to locate them on planets as well?

Thanks for any help provided! I feel a bit overwhelmed but I'm gonna go at it at a casual pace!

So... The update kinda ruined NMS for my girlfriend [Question]

She doesn't play a lot of games so when she saw me playing one day and I asked to try I was really excited. Since then, she's been playing for a few months and it's really become her favorite game. She loves exploring planets and finding new creatures especially but when it comes to combat, she'd always call me over and ask me to take out any hostile ships or sentinels. They didn't appear that often so it really wasn't a problem.

Well, she sat down to play for the first time since the update and pirates were immediately attacking a nearby settlement. It was super stressful and even though she eventually took care of them she was still pretty pissed about them being on her safe home planet. Then she started to explore a bit and ran into sentinels, which has never happened on that world. It even says that there's no sentinel activity so I'm not sure what happened there. I took them out and she went off planet... Where more sentinel ships spawned in. Took care of those then left the room. In about 5 minutes I heard "COME ON". Apparently pirates had spawned in right after and absolutely demolished her. Her first death too.

So yeah, she's put down the game indefinitely now. It's really sad to see obviously and she doesn't want to start a new game in creative mode because she's gotten so far. Is there anything we can do to remove the update or turn off hostiles/pirates now? Playing on Xbox One btw

So what are the new missions like? [Question]

I have played NMS off and on for years. I'd get really hyped, start playing and having some fun, but then I'd start to get bored of the gameplay loop of gathering resources, exploring places, etc.

I always wished there was a bit more narrative and proper missions to get into when I got tired of the original gameplay loop.

One of the things I liked about Elite Dangerous was that you could take on a variety of missions to make money and kinda create your own story around that. They were so close to having something great with the Odyssey expansion but it was clunky, unoptimized, and they made simple items ridiculously difficult to obtain. I know these games are very different but I'm hoping that this new NMS update might scratch that itch that I thought ED Odyssey would.

Can anyone trade me a large stack of expensive materials as I desperately need money to upgrade new solar ship?

Expedition randomness? [Question]

Does the expedition not randomize the avatar any more? The last three times (excluding the repeat) I am always the same Gek. I tried deleting and making a new save as well...

Help plz [Question]

My copy of No Man's Sky has not updated properly. The solar ships and quest line ate up, as well as most things, but the game is still saying it is on sentinel update and I cannot access the new Cape.

Suspicious goods way too cheap? [Question]

Hey everyone,

Is anyone else under the impression that the "suspicious goods" you can buy at outlaw stations are waaaaaaaaay too cheap? I'm not sure if that's the correct term since my language settings are not english.

I'm talking about the "suspicious goods/wares" that come in 3 variants: Technology, Weapons and Goods/Wares. You can buy them for super cheap credit (like 20-40k Credits a stack) and you either get upgardes you can sell for nanite sor tarde goods that are worth way more than the Credits you needed to buy them.

Pirates suck [Question]

So after starting up the game after a year long break I'm greeted to a bunch of new content and I'm excited to play. I'm from Skyrim so mods are part of my religion, I mod no mans sky till it can barely run, get the load order stable and start the game. I'm greeted to a years worth of content I haven't seen and everything is bliss.. I go to bed. Wake up and start the game again.. a new update just dropped and now my mod load order is screwed. I spend an hour or so getting my load order stable and load into the game. Everything still looks great and I decide to explore the oceans. I shit you not, as soon as I touch the water, pirates do A-10 strafing runs on me like I'm some Russian tank just begging to get blown up. Like literally as soon as I touch the water. I timed it and the longest I went without getting shot up in the water was 45 seconds. Is anyone else getting their shit pushed in while trying to explore the murky depths or is it just me? Sorry if this post is odd, I'm kinda intoxicated as I'm posting this but fuck man. I cant have anything nice in the oceans without getting blown sky high by some star wars luke skywalker impersonating pirate.

Question about the NPC pilots you hire for your Squadron. [Question]

I know the update hasn’t been out long so there probably isn’t much information or testing that has been done but does anyone know if the squadron system works the same as hiring frigates? As in, is it better to recruit a C-Class NPC and level them up? Are nanites the only way to upgrade them at the moment?

How do I equip my hood? [Question]

I got to the point where I was given a hood and directed towards the customisation station, but I can't find any options in any of the tabs to select a hood.

#

Enable squadrons made more clear? [Suggestion]

OH MY GOODNESS THIS UPDATE IS AWESOME

However

I had no idea how to enable squadrons I thought maybe there could be like a mission or a hint on how to add them. I found Captain Steve's video which was very useful but if a tip or something could be in game?

except from that this update is awesome

Well done Hello Games. [Suggestion]

This game is becoming everything Star Citizen promised to be. I have been gaming for 25 years now, seen the greats rise and fall. You are one of them. Combat and base raids were a large chunk of what I personally felt was missing from the game. It gives purpose to a lot of things and adds to the overall experience. Thank you for listening to requests, lets just make a really fun game together for the sake of it you know? If you need another $50-60 for No Mans Sky 2.0 or whatever and whenever that happens you got it.

As a suggestion on what to add in the future. Real time events in space like having a giant monster, hostile anomaly or giant starship jump in from warp and crash land on a planet or into something (being mysteriously damaged, as if warping out of harms way from a fight) as a huge dramatic spectacle...would be incredibly fun. Maybe as you approach a planet have like a giant hand or tentacle come up over the horizon of it as you approach (cue dramatic music) as a cool way to load in the event (if such a thing is reasonably possible game engine wise).

Approach the Gundam company for some timed content like you did for Mass Effect and the Normandy. Their entire series takes place in space and involves space battles and I bet they would kill for some mainstream "western" exposure. They have a huge game/metaverse thing in the works that I am sure they want people to talk about or know exists. You have the mechs already you could just make a Gundam skin for one and people would be happy.

My game didn't updated to outlaws [Question]

I saw the update video and all the stuff, I asked to my gf to put it to update, after I got ar home to play it, the patch notes was from the Sentinels update. How do I know that I get the outlaws? I'm new to this game, and I am in the early stages. I am playing on ps4 pro. Thanks for the help!

infinite money glitch [Bug]

If you try to sell stuff that's in your ships new cargo area it won't take it out of its inventory, meaning you cab continuously sell that sane item.

#

Pirate attacks on planet more frequent? [Question]

So after the recent update I’ve been getting vector attacks on a “nearby base” which beforehand was because I had put my base right next to an already existing building with a trader in it. So I then went to the complete opposite side of the planet and before I had even put a base computer down I had already gotten the same vector attack incoming notification 3 times and they flew over me. Anyone know if it’s supposed to be this frequent on planet? It’s kinda taking the enjoyment out of building and such right now.

#

Survival mode - new space combat? [Question]

Any feedback from people regarding how difficult things are on survival mode/permadeath with the new space combat changes? Are pirates etc more lethal compared to normal mode?

#

Best ship setup? [Question]

Hey all, I’m a veteran of NMS. Played since the launch but kinda fell off the last year or so and never really upgraded my shop weapons etc Hopping back in again due to the space fight overhaul and wondering what are the best weapons , techs etc I should be adding to my ships?

#

Accounts ever suspended/banned for exploits or abusing glitches? [Discussion]

I am not advocating for punishing, merely asking if it has happened.

Considering the amount of people posting about the infinite units / infinite nanite glitch with ship cargo holds, is there any history or precedent of Hello Games taking action against accounts that abuse glitches?

Or is it more like “don’t do it unless you want to bypass the part of the game where you earn that stuff”?

#

Ship speeds changed [Question]

Just noticed that my fighter's space boost speed has gone from 13000+u/s to just shy of 3000u/s

How fast has anyone gotten a solar sail ship going? They have some extra mods for their flight speed right?

#

New rebalanced ship weapons [Information]

So the ship weps are different now. I am finding that the Cyclotron Ballista takes down shields and damages engines. So far the best load out seems to be soften them with that and sometimes take them all the way out. Rockets then photons rinse repeat.

Combat is much better actually had to recharge my shield several times. Thrilling !!! I am using s class hauler caz I like how it looks LOL. So far I have engaged pirates several times. My new loadout seems to do the trick MUHHHHHAAAA

For ground combat the new netron cannon is sweet and no need for ammmo I think I will remove my scatter blaster for awhile to make room for other yummies

Good Hunting DPP (Dreaded Pirate Paladin )😁

#

Is the amount of pirate attacks a bug, a "feature" or am I just unlucky? [Question]

I jumped back into my permadeath save yesterday (After failing miserably at Expedition 5) to find the usual sentinel attack on my settlement (Which seems to really happen everytime I don't play for a couple of days). While I was destroying the last one a pirate attack started, and I thought it was incredibly cool. Honestly, ship combat in permadeath can be sweaty-palm inducing.

Anyway ... so far so good, but now I can not land anywhere without waves after waves of pirate attacks. I seem to ALWAYS get an instant attack as soon as I land, and from then on barely any peace. Same in space, even in systems with low conflict levels.

As I said, I really like the new sense of danger ... but as it is right now the game is not enjoyable at all (ymmv)

#

Being attacked by mandatory pirates while I’m trying to build a base is game-breaking. Shame on you, Hello Games. Fix it. [Bug]

I was absolutely ecstatic reading the notes for yesterday’s update. Better space combat, a new ship, a bigger hanger, a SQUADRON?? It was a dream come true. I’m a space combat fanatic, and I completely agree with the choice to make NMS more combat-accessible.

However.

No Man’s Sky is also about peace. Exploration. It’s about finding a place to build a home and then joyfully creating something unique. But now, until this is fixed, there is no joy because I have to leave my base every three minutes or be killed by invading pirates. I have NEVER used the term “game-breaking.” But this game isn’t No Man’s Sky right now.

All they have to do is make it optional. I’m not asking for anything crazy. Surely they’ll fix this so we can build again, right? Anyone heard any good news?

How do i trigger the Outlaw Mission? [Question]

I've heard that you need either the conflict scanner or the economy scanner for it to trigger and i have the economy scanner installed, but after pulsing around through space for 30 minutes the mission didn't trigger yet and i am losing hope that it will ever trigger.

Guys, I'm confused with the Sentinel update [Question]

PS4 player.

Ok so, a month ago I was playing NMS and when I checked the patch notes, it read the notes from the updates of the Settlements and all of that, the strange part is that I built a giant mech that followed me and all that quest, but today I came back and noticed a new patch and now I downloaded it and now it says the notes from Sentinels, I checked and the update was released in February, but in March I was playing and the patch notes were about the settlements.

I'm wondering if it was an error, others may have the same, or just me?

#

Controller mapping problem on PC [Question]

I'm currently using a Switch Pro controller to play NMS on Steam, with the steam input settings set to Nintendo mapping.

Problem is, the button icons in game are flipped (ab, xy). Everytime I try manually remapping the controller in steam, or switch off the Nintendo mapping option, the game always flips to be the opposite of what the mapping actually is...

Anybody have any ideas what I'm missing here and why it's always countering my settings? Any help is greatly appreciated, as I can't seem to find answers online!

#

How can you tell a system has Outlaws/is "lawless" exactly? [Question]

I came back to my old save to see if I could see the new Outlaw stuff. I figure the systems I've already explored can't simply become Outlawed systems, so I tried going to some nearby unexplored systems, but they don't seem to be outlawed either? Is it under the Conflict level of a system, or something else?

#

Is it better I make a new file or use my old one? [Question]

Not played since desolation update but I'm not sure if with all these new updates including the past ones too, am I better off starting a new file? Had the same file for long before desolation but didn't make a new one even with the updates because I like having all my stuff and not having to go through the trouble of unlocking everything like my mech, all the base parts and the storage upgrades etc. But I can't tell if I am missing out on some stuff using my old file. Planning on playing again soon but wanted to know if I'm better off using my old file to jump to the new content or am I missing out on features doing this and I should start a new file again?

#

Well I’ll be these space battles kick my arse! [Discussion]

Never had a problem with them before, pirates or sentinels (though I rarely caused enough trouble for sentinels!) but Damn these new battles are intense. Had my arse handed to 4 times! Time to get some ship upgrades I think. I gotta start the new quest line!

Game totally breaks if you join a friend halfway through the tutorial. [Bug]

This happened to me a long time ago, so it might be patched by now, but I thought I’d give a heads up just in case.

If you join a friends game and are warped to their system before you get the hyperdrive beacon, you’ll only be able to get it in that system.

This trapped me on my original system for 17 hours on my first playthrough, before I finally bit the bullet and restarted.

How Do I Recruit A Squadron [Question]

Outlaws Mission Start [Question]

I can’t seem to find any information on the outlaws mission, or the pirate controlled stars. I’ve tried looking it up, but can’t find much except for announcements on the new update. Any help is appreciated!

i have discovered a bug [Bug]

Selling stuff to ship owners in the space station from your starships high capacity storage (im on ps4) doesnt get rid of the item but gives you the credits for the items. Please can we get this fixed. Unfortunately i cannot supply an image, but i sold 4 stacks of chlorine several times before realising.

#

What the hell happened to my Pulse Drive? [Bug]

After updating to Outlaws, I quickly noticed my Pulse Drive is acting completely different than normal. Travel from planet to planet is in the blink of an eye, instead of taking 1-3 minutes If I just point in a random direction and pulse away for a half second, I'll be in the middle of nothing in the system, with all the planets very far away When pulsing to a planet, it now stops me about 600,000m away from the planet. I have to slowly Boost the entire way and it takes about 10 minutes to land (if I include the 3 pirate encounters along the way).

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this how the Pulse Drive is supposed to work now? Or is something on my save messed up?

#

Question [Question]

Hello fellow travellers I’m just not sure this this works. So I followed a solar ship posting and went to the system. I waited at both space/pirate station and trade outpost. I saw 4 different variants but not the one posted. Is this normal? Thank you in advance for your answers.

#

Storyline Bug [Question]

Quick question is anyone else experiencing a bug that it won’t let you track the new Outlaw storyline? I have it in my log and I can click on it but for whatever reason it won’t show the precise location of the mission and I can’t activate my tracking mission this in my analysis visor. I would like to get this figured out so I can enjoy the update! Thanks for your help in advance!

#

is contraband bugged? [Question]

So I bought a whole bunch of NipNip buds at an outlaw station I spent 1,879,244 units on them I had 1,908,112 units before the purchase and was left with 28,868 after.

I went to a regulated system to sell the buds and they had a demand of 163.3% however it appeared as I was going to make a loss as I could only sell them for 1,263,487 units I was a bit disappointed at that loss but it wasn't a massive loss so I figured I would sell anyway so I did but the thing is I didn't even get the advertised amount, when I sold my units went from 28,851 to only 503,846 meaning I only made 474,995 on the buds so I'm missing another 788,492 units.

What happened? Now I did get scanned so did the value tank because the station knew I was selling illegal goods or is this a bug?

#

It's been 24 hours- Do we have a rundown of Solar ship specs, yet? Are they better than Exotic or Living ships? [Question]

Since I haven't fully modded my Solar ship up yet, I've been doing pirating in my squid. Obviously, we're all knocking out expanding our ship cargo spots, but I was wondering if we had a run down and/or comparison of the specs for the new Solar ships.

The wiki only mentions the solar sails in brief:

The inventory ranges for Solars are unknown. Their bonus values are currently undetermined.

So, do we, as a community, have a good handle on the base and max specs yet?

#

Did i mess up? [Information]

So i just started the new expedition, completley from scratch, because i lost my old xbox game pass save files. And i got to the milestone that requires me to have a freighter. Though i declined the first one because it was kinda crap, do i have to wait for 3 hours to get the next one? Or is there another way to get another pitate battle to spawn inside the expedition?

#

I can't claim the Golden Vector from Expedition 1 in my main save [Bug]

I still have my save with the golden ship and have converted it to a normal save by logging into it, but if I try claiming the golden ship in my main save it says that I don't have Expedition 1 completed. I'm beginning to think the golden ship is exclusive of that saves, is this a known problem or something? I really, really would like it if I don't have to touch the game files or use a save file editor. I've attached images to show what I am seeing.

Discord Question [Question]

I joined the NMS discord an hour ago and cant comment at all or DM any of the mods (the server welcome page says to message staff if you cant post past the 10 min cooldown). Does anyone know what im doing wrong? for both DMs to mods and posts in any channel it gives me "your message could not be delivered this is usually because you don't share a server with he recipient..."

I went through the server rules and there doesn't seem to be any sort of "agree" button that you have to press to be able to interact like other discords.

Should i leave the server and re-join?

Please help I need help with this game

#

Warp/Map question [Question]

Am I missing something when using the warp/map to travel? This is in relation to the expedition but really anything with an objective/route to travel such as galactic core.

Using the selection for route it only gives like 4-5 short jumps that are way below my ship range so I end up having to make a bunch of small jumps because I can't see the final location, for expedition rendezvous without following this route and wasting warp fuel or w/e.

#

In-Atmo Dogfights are Amazing [Discussion]

Last night I spent an hour blowing up Cobras Sentinel Interceptors. It's an absolute blast to be close to the ground, flying through canyons and dodging trees.

Holy crap, Elite: Dangerous needs something like this. I can only imagine how fun it'd be w/ a more robust flight model. (And roll instead of yaw).

Any other Elite players find themselves reflexively lowering their throttle in attempt to optimize their turning speed? Guess I need to unlearn that one...

Help? [Question]

During the last weekend event, I was flying my living ship over the vast ocean of an ice planet in search of land/frost crystal when my ship was obliterated and I “died”. In my ship inventory I had the sentinel companion creature egg I had claimed from the most recent expedition. Since I lost all of my ship inventory, that disappeared as well and when I go to the quicksilver station at the anomaly it says the egg was already claimed. Is it unrecoverable to me entirely? Thank you for any insights (I’m pretty bummed about the situation)
