Mostly legitimate money and nanite making method that feels like a glitch but isn’t [Information]
So basically you just by the suspicious packets. Goods for units as if you buy enough you’ll come out making money from all the stuff and weapons and technology for nanites as you can just sell the upgrade modules to the upgrade dealers instead of using them and it works great. It’s fun because it’s not even a glitch

Where to find freighter wrecks? [Question]
As the title asks, I’m having trouble finding one and I believe it’s the only place I can get the “frigate module” for my freighters fuel recipe :/
Does anyone else find the controls “squishy” [Question]
I play on Xbox and just came back to the game. Im finding the controls really squishy and very unenjoyable. Like the camera keeps moving after releasing the stick and taking a moment to start moving when directed.
Im hugely disappointed cos I was hoping to find and explore all the new things but it’s super frustrating and hard to play. Especially in the Minotaur. Those controls are the absolute worst! Anyone else?
Expedition 6 part 2 [Screenshot]
All multi tools, companions and squadron pilots gone... [Bug]
I've seen some people having the same problem although it's not easy to find anything about this bug and there doesn't seem to be any solution either since there is no known indicator for this bug.
So this is how it happened for me: I randomly found an alien like looking multi tool and thought "why not", bought it and switched back to my main multi tool. After that I went to the anomaly and noticed that I couldn't switch between them anymore. Not only that all of them besides the one I had equipped plus all my animal companions and squad pilots where gone. Another thing is that all my companion eggs are now glitched and have the description of another item that is placed in the same storage. Reloading the game wasn't an option since I hard saved the game before I noticed this. I'm playing on PS4+ but from what I saw it happens on Pc and Xbox as well.
Space combat Nexus [Suggestion]
It would be great to have a space combat Nexus for all the players interested in joining up with other players for epic space battles. Attacking space stations to fight hoards of sentinels, in planet battles, taking down freighters. Everyone using their own squadrons ,it would be so fun.
stuck at stage 4 of expedition 6 [Question]
I can't for the life of me get the sentinel pilar chart to drop. I've been grinding sentinels for the past 2,5 hours and they either lose track of me mid fight or they don't spawn. If I get one more hydraulic wiring out of the glass I'm going to lose it. If anyone can provide me with a location of a pillar it would be appreciated.
So now that we can have 9 ships.. [Discussion]
I now have
1 - Purple Explorer
1 - Yellow Shuttle
1 - Red Hauler
1 - White/Black Fighter
1 - Blue Ball Exotic
1 - Green Squid Exotic
1 - Golden Vector
1 - Rainbow Living Ship
1 - White/Black Solar Ship
I'm curious how everyone else is organizing their ships. I think I covered every unique-ish ship, is there any you guys think I'm missing? I'm not 100% set on keeping the Golden Vector if There's another unique one I can replace it with, but having a gold ship does feel unique.
Question about contraband trading [Question]
So i bought for like 4.5 mil contraband and it said it would sell well at industry starsystems, so i go there and entter the terminal and it indeed says i can sell the 4.5 mil contraband for 10 million at the terminal, but when i actually push A to sell it only gives me like 4.5, the exact amount i bought it in the pirate starsystem for and i made zero profit. Even though the commercial terminal said i would recieve 10 mil... Anyone know whats going on or what i am missing?
Portal Glyphs? [Information]
Hello aren't the portal glyphs that show on screenshots, supposed to lead you at the planet the shot was taken?
I try to visit my old base that I made when playing at game pass but I went to a world that I haven't seen before. (I play in steam now)
First greyscale planet and I love how creepy it is especially with the floating monoliths. [Screenshot]
Do settlements spawn in the previously abandoned systems that are now home to pirates? [Information]
This may already be common knowledge but previously, it wasn't possible to force the spawning of a planetary settlement in an uninhabited system.
Given the new outlaws update which converts those abandoned systems into populated ones- (albeit with roided out pirates that constantly attack your buildings.) -I decided to see if the game would allow NOW, for me to use a chart to find one.
What I did/my steps:
Accumulate Nav data.
Fly to normal system. (Any race)
Dock at station and purchase settlement maps. (You may need more than one. Sometimes it will say "locational interference" or just not do anything when using the map, so buy a few of them.)
Fly or warp back to pirate system. Dock at the station, then get out of your ship to create an autosave. (This step is IMPORTANT. SAVE YOUR GAME.)
Get back into your ship and exit the pirate station. Once in space, use the maps in your inventory and spam click the 'use' button until the game locates one for you.
Done!
(Please keep in mind, this doesn't always spawn it on the exact planet you want, so when attempting to get your own planetary pirate settlement, make sure that the entire pirate system you chose looks good to you.
There is another guide here that will show you how to specifically spawn a settlement on the planet of your choosing, but that is a longer and more complex process which currently involves galaxy hopping and restarting the "life on the harsh frontier" quest.
I hope this info was helpful, happy looting everyone. :)
What are your in game goals? [Discussion]
I'm just wondering what you all aim for in the game? I always struggle with having this feeling like there needs to be a point/aim (possibly due to my depression) obviously there's the missions you get like finding the galactic core which I haven't done yet. I'm just being curious really
Enough with this [Discussion]
I've been playing since a little before the first expedition. I've enjoyed the game and especially doing the expeditions. Although, some of them are boring at times and some are just blah. This new one, with the new content, some of it looks good, but the constant pirate attack and the ability for players to gank you while on a planet is not right for this game. I have died more times in this expedition than I have in my entire time playing the game (I think I died once or twice before this expedition). This is no longer fun. On top of the fact now that sentinels will immediately switch to interceptors the moment you get into your ship and take off, even if you are flying nap of the earth style. And the interceptors know exactly where you are. There is no longer a searching function for them. And they always seem to have perfect accuracy when attacking you. If things stay the way they currently are, then I'll probably shelve the game and maybe come back to it in a few years, if it is still around because of all the horrible content they have added to a game that was fun.
So.. squadron manipulation question.. [Question]
Let's say I wanted to pair up a perfect ship with a perfect pilot..
If I were to buy my 'perfect ship', level it up nicely in class (and upgrades)...
Then find a pilot with perfect stats...
I could "trade" my perfect ship to the pilot for his crappy ship, so now he owns my perfect ship...
Then I could recruit him into my Squaron using my perfect ship..
..this is my plan. Is this possible?

A way to transfer Xbox live Save file to steam? [Question]
Hi there, i bought Xbox Live for 1€ one month, some months ago.
I Tried NMS and i quite liked it. and played it almost daily.
Now im thinking of Buying it on steam if i could transfer my safe file.
I was wondering if i can transfer my safe file to steam? im not sure if i would buy it if i couldn't
How to unlock TRAITOR player title [Question]
Saw the latest titles in the Outcast update. Managed to unlock both Heretic and Glorious through following the pirate missions, but the last one, HERETIC says reject a strange voice.
Do let me know if you have, and how to unlock this!
Are there supposed to be this many planetary pirate raids [Question]
im a new player just started 2 days ago and im constantly being bombarded with pirates while im trying to build my base is there anything i can do to counter them with out flying up there and killing them my self the launch ship fuel costs are starting to build up
I'd really love to have that extra layer of customizability and it shouldn't be too tricky to add as ships already naturally occur with decals so they have decal slots coded into them already. Especially with texture modding to put our own decals in their place.
Anyone else? [Question]
I have noticed that my traveller race toon has his eyes on backwards. The fronts are pointing back into his head, and all I see are the backs of the eyeballs. Is this everyone or something wrong with my game?
I don't know how that got in there officer. [Discussion]
With the Outlaws update you can go to a Pirate system and buy contraband that you can smuggle to regular systems for profit. Cops will routinely scan you to see if you have contraband. So I bought a lot of contraband and went to the Anomaly and started slipping contraband in people's pockets before they leave the Anomaly.

Possible bug with settlements? [Bug]
So, I haven't played NMS in around 4 months, and seeing the two new updates and one of my friends playing, I reinstalled it. So I went over to my settlement which was being invaded by sentinels, but the sentinels won't stop spawning after around 30 minutes of fighting them. Help?

Is NMS VR worth trying out? [Question]
To summarize, me and my friend had just bought the game, with me about to begin playing it later on. However, I know this game has a VR mode, and coming from me who loves anything space related, it seems like a dream to try this out on my Quest 2 via link! However, I've seen multiple posts saying how it runs like absolute garbage due to it not being made with VR in mind. Is this true still to this day?
Specs:
GTX 1660 SUPER
Ryzen 5 5600X
16GB 3200 MHZ

Multiplayer Freighters [Question]
There used to be a mod that allowed you and your friends to warp your freighters to the same system. It was extremely satisfying to park them all next to each other above the same planet.
The mod worked by changing one line in GCDEBUGOPTIONS.GLOBAL.MBIN, and this line has since been totally removed, so the mod no longer works.
Clearly the devs wanted to make it impossible to have multiple freighters in the same system. Does anyone know why they seem to hate this idea? It was amazing.
How does the experimental branch work with saves? [Question]
Can I just jump in and out without issue? I want to enter it because I'm tired of the pirate raids and today and tomorrow I have a lot of time to play. Will I have any issues jumping back and forth?
[VR] Any solution for VR Players? [Bug]
today i tried NMS with my new VR headset, I'll make it short, when I do a double jump (with the jetpack upgrade) it makes me go in the opposite direction, I have to reset the view so that it makes me jump where I'm looking.
I don't see anyone complaining about this problem (maybe because no one plays in VR) so if anyone has a solution to fix this please let me know
Base Building [Question]
I'm in the new expedition, and it won't let me build base stations. Does anyone know if it eventually does?
Upgrading Squadron members' ships? [Question]
I realize that you can't actually upgrade squadron member's ships once you recruit them. But suppose you already owned a fully upgraded S-class fighter, sold it to an NPC at a space station or trading post, and then recruited them so they then join your squadron with that ship. Would this functionally improve their performance as a squadron member?
HELP NEEDED! Settlement Debt Bug! [Bug]
Just wondering if I can get some help. My settlement has recently gotten a positive production/maintenance ratio (234,079 Maintenance/305,100 Production).
However after leaving it overnight with a building in construction, I now see that my debt has gone down to, get this... Negative 13k. Literally, "-13,305" and continuing to decline. Also, the "Time Until Cleared" is stuck at infinity. The game seems to think I am still in debt with no end in sight. See screenshot below.
Any help will be very much appreciated!
Outlaw’s Showdown [Screenshot]
Mouse sensitivity lowers when you turn fast in third person. [Bug]
Does anyone else experience the bug where when you turn in third person it lowers your mouse sensitivity the faster you move your mouse? Does anyone know how I can fix it? I literally can't play in third person because of it. Neither reinstalling nor restarting works.
Does anybody else wish we could do more with the frigates? [Discussion]
For example:
Drive the frigates
Summon frigates seperate to the freighter
Land the frigates on planets

Is this a bug? Cargo selling [Bug]
Just started playing today, after some exploring I noticed that the gold I colected on the ship's cargo space did not get removed when I sell.
So basically I was trying to sell it thinking I was doing something wrong and didnt want to cheat the game because a noticed the money goin up when it was at the 2M mark.
Did some testing latter and found out that not only the ship cargo but my exo cargo is with the same behaivior. Has this been reported already?
Lost the system i was doing the outlaw missions in? [Question]
Hey just a little confused, is there any type of lengthy storyline to the Outlaw update? I can’t remember the exact steps but i talked to the people in the Outlaw station and got some coordinates to a skull logo and followed it a couple times after getting contacted from a floating solar ship. I got distracted from the quest and warped out of the system i was following the quest line in and kind of went on a warping spree and have no quest in the guide and can’t backtrack my warps to the missions system? Did i F up or was there only a couple little things to complete? I went into new outlaw stations and tried messing around but no luck being able to trigger anything.
Twitch Drops Not Showing Up? [Question]
I redeemed my twitch drops from the last couple days on my main save, and none of the ships are available to summon. I only had 2 ships at the time, so I wasn't at the limit. I tried going to my freighter, then to a planet, but they just aren't there. When going back to the Quicksilver vendor, I can't redeem them. Are they just gone?
All that room in outer space and someone still managed to crash a freighter into a space station. [Screenshot]

All Story Quest Lines Bugged [Question]
All of my story quest lines seem to be bugged and I don’t know how to fix it or if I can or maybe they aren’t bugged and I’m just missing something that I need to do before. I did the Awakenings mission and then started to go through this, but nothing lets me proceed from the points on each quest that I’ve listed below. I did skip doing the Base Computer Archives so I’m working through that right now, but every other mission I have has no ties to these from what I can tell. I figured I’d put this out there and see if anyone has any ideas on why it is doing this or if my save is just screwed.
-Ghost in the Machine, is stuck where I need to expand and staff my home. I am on this part and I never received the blueprint for the Overseer Terminal, so I can’t recruit any one. I am playing on PC so I edited the file to have the blueprint unlock, but it just tells me I should leave the Overseer alone for now.
-The Atlas Path, just tells me to find the next Atlas Interface when I already have every blueprint for the Atlas seeds. When I go to any interface I have a Heart of the Sun in my inventory but can’t use it to birth a new star and the terminal doesn’t recognize I have it in my inventory.
-The Space Anomaly, just stuck on Search for Artemis and the mysterious Apollo. Can’t do much with this since I can’t progress on the Ghosts in the Machine.
Point of no return [Question]
So, after around 3 years of goofing around on a single save file, I’ve finally decided to finish out the Atlas Path quest line. I just received the Star Seed and am about to warp to the black hole it’s directing me towards.
My question goes to the players who have finished this quest line. Is there any specific “point of no return” with this quest? I only ask because when I was about to get the Star Seed, the dialogue on screen made me think that I was about to move on to a new galaxy.
I know now that doesn’t happen until you take Remembrance to an Observatory but it made me realize there are still a few more things I want to wrap up in Euclid.
If there are players out there who can give me an answer without too big of spoilers, (the main reason I didn’t just want to google this info was to avoid big spoilers) I would really appreciate it!
Don't care for the sails. [Suggestion]
Like the new ships and animation, but the sail is in the way when in 1st person. Maybe if the sails came out from the side like a wing extension or visual ability to turn it off.
Blight Expedition Phase 3 bug? [Bug]
I don’t know what the problem is. I’ve finished phases 1 and 2. I came to the 3rd rendezvous. Im trying to do “The Last Piece” which is the objective to locate the final map fragment.
I select the objective. It says the objective is in another system, consult your galaxy map. Ok cool. I go to the galaxy map and see the icon in another system. I jump there…and it tells me the objective is in another system and to consult the galaxy map again…..
I go back to the galaxy map. The objective is now in the system I was just in. I go back via space station portal, and on it goes. The objective just pops back and forth between these two systems, whichever one I’m not in. Really fucking annoying.
I’ve gone through a black hole in an attempt to reset the objective’s location. I’ve closed app and came back. Nothing has worked.
Anyone else experience? Do I need to do the submarine objectives first or something?
Pirate attack timer option. [Suggestion]
The option could be like 2, 4, 8, 12... per hour at random, but if in multi-player the pirate attack timer would be whatever is default for the game.
Possible Bug, or is it fine? [Bug]
You know how, during freighter battles, the enemy ships dive all through and inside the freighter? And you can draw them out by moving away, unless they're stuck in the mesh of the freighter.
But with a squad, they keep trying to shoot the one ship stuck inside, and the freighter starts targeting the squad's ships.
My question is whether this will make the freighter actually hostile, or if it will stop shooting at my squad when the last bad guy is gone.
Not getting full value of item when selling it [Question]

We’ve gotten a sentinel update, now a pirate update, both with a lot of combat changes. What’s next? [Discussion]

TV Series? [Discussion]
I am watching Halo rn and all I keep thinking about is what if NMS had a TV show…
I mean, how lovely would it be to see all kinds of different and beautiful environments and crazy situations characters could get into!
Maybe it could be like a limited series of shorts just bringing the amazing planets to the screen and showing what could happen in or on said planets.
Lemme know if you think this is a good idea or a bad idea. What’s something cool they can add to a series or movie?
Cargo Slots [Bug]
So apparently everything in your ship cargo Slots is non-transferable when buying a new ship. Tried to transfer the stuff in the ship compare screen, wouldn't let me. So I figured, MAYBE, it'll auto transfer when I buy the new ship. Nope. It's all just gone.

Still trying to find a way to access my PS4 save file after nearly a year [Question]
I had a problem with my Playstation about a year ago which forced me to do a system reset. Since then, I have been unable to access my save files on NMS. The save files are shown in online storage but when I download them from the cloud and go into the game, they don't appear at the menu.
I don't want to start over because I've easily put a few hundred hours into this save and have been playing since launch. I've sent in numerous emails about this through the support tab of Hello Games but have never received a response.
Any ideas on what to do?
Freighter [Question]
I recently started playing NMS, love the game and I recently found out you get a freighter after your 5th warp after a little battle. I just got the award for 10 warps but I can’t seem to find how to acquire the freighter. Am I doing this wrong? Any tips?

(PS4) Under A Rebel Star mission bugged for me? [Bug]
Yesterday, I picked up NMS for the first time since late 2021 and I ran into the trigger for the Under A Rebel Star mission. I approached the ship, and accepted the coordinates, and two things happened: 1. There is not a mission marker anywhere. 2. The in-game mission text (not the Log text) says: "The distress beacon's log has triggered an alarm? Corrupted Sentinels Remaining: Unknown"
I haven't even interacted with a distress beacon, only the in-space floating solar ship. When I look at the Log section and check the mission, and it just tells me to "Reach the marked coordinates" when there is no marker.
I checked a quick video to see how the start of the mission goes and I am definitely supposed to have a marker. I logged in today and the same thing is happening.
In case you missed it, I play on PS4.
Anybody know how to stop irate attacks on your settlement? [Bug]
I just got a settlement, and it’s right next to one of those towers with landing pads you can find on planets. A few minutes after I got my settlement, a pirate raid happened. One of the pirates landed at the tower and I couldn’t kill it, and now my settlement is attacked every 2-3 minutes. Does anyone know a fix for this?

The Blight Expedition missed opportunity (spoilers) [Discussion]
Hi travellers,
I've just finished the new expedition and really enjoyed it, the narrative was cool and I hope future expeditions are similar.
I had a thought about a missed opportunity with the rewards however.
In the last expedition one of the rewards was an egg for a Sentinel quad, and it was released at the same time as the Sentinel update which gave us a drone Sentinel and an improved mech.
I thought it could have been really cool if this expedition, where we fight pirates on the side of the law, rewarded us with a Sentinel interceptor to use as a starship, maybe as a unique S class fighter. This would complete the set of Sentinel-based rewards, since we can also more or less get Sentinel freighters if we look hard enough.
What do you think, will we ever get the interceptor for ourselves?
Can't trade with space station pilots? [Bug]
I've come back to NMS for the first time since the sandworm expedition, and have been progressing well in the latest expedition. Everytime I try and interact with a landed pilot (to recruit to my squadron) they just disappear before the menu pops up, along with their ship.
It's been happening for two days across numerous saves/reloads as I work through the expedition... any known workarounds? I couldn't see anything in the weekly bug thread...
We need for storage space options! [Suggestion]
I’m a hoarder, and NMS only feeds on this but to be able to have extra storage for my junk or my dozens of stacks of ferrite or carbon etc is a must for me!
Wasn’t an incinerator/flamethrower added in the previous update? [Question]
I don’t know what happened to that but seems like i don’t have it.
Pirate Attacks? [Question]
Honestly am I doing something to attract these pirates? I just restarted my game and I get attacked every 3 minutes. Is it because I'm on a paradise planet? Because at this point every time I'm just wondering along and then I just get wiped out by pirates or I have to dig deep into the ground. Am I doing something to attract them because the game is becoming borderline unpleasant.
quicksilver not spending [Discussion]
Hey guys, as we all know about the infinite units/nan exploit. But I ( maybe known ) noticed that if you
Buy something with quicksilver then quit. Upon logging back in your quicksilver will be normal and at the QS shop it'll show the item " available " upon selecting it again and unlocking it, your silver doesn't go down.
I don't do a lot of missions for Quicksilver so with my 4k and some loading and logging out I was able to purchase all the 3200 masks and starship trails etc.
Hopefully it helps some people who don't feel the urge to grind quicksilver.

is there any way to lighten up the chore for building a base? [Question]
I have more than 50 hours in the game and only now i am planning to build a proper main base besides a cube with a roof. To be beginning the chore i have to hunt databanks to unlock recipes, a lot really, at this moment i already completed the timber tier and tried to build something, but i need others materials, which are crafted and i need more materials which i dont find in my freighter shop, system space station or trader posts and hunt in another system is another chore to the pile....
Is any way to make building less boring with the material hunt in vanilla game?
I just wished a vendor with all building materials available to buy....
Or if i gonna need mods, any recommendation?
I playing in the survival mode by the way.

Memory leak: PS4 [Question]
For many months now, the game will crash after about 72hrs left running, regardless of active, or not. Regardless of warps, and telleports. Best I can tell the nature of the bug is a memory leak. But I have to wonder how many other also see this. Am I the only one to leave the game running? Today I have only had the game running the day, but after intense fights with the sentinels. I could feel the controls lagging. The character would refuse to move for several seconds. The multi-tool would refuse to fire or switch modes. Successfully took town a pillar once. Disabled the sentinels. They came back. I took out two more waves. Shot a lot of video in the process using the PS4. Cleared two walker brains, and exposed a second pillar. But this pillar said the sentinels were already disabled?? The Blue icon replaced with the typical GTA5 style five strikes icons. Left the pillar and headed back to my Settlement. Landed, and just as I tried to get out, the game stopped. Blue screen. I don't think it even auto saved before the crash.
-Should I mention sentinels kept getting stuck inside the terrain? When this happen they cant find me and the time start to count down.
Best I can tell the intense combat and complex terrain alterations spurned the memory leak. Otherwise it would have taken longer to build up on it's own.
But since I don't see posts about random crashes I wonder how often this happens to others? I know we all have graphics issues, and other quirks. But am I really the only one, with an unstable game?
Anyone ever run across something like this? [Question]
Was cruising through space and got a notification, drop out of pulse speed and low and behold a solar ship just twisting in the wind so to speak, I can't interact with it at all.

Do I ask this reddit or another to find Royal Multitools? [Question]
I'm trying to get one, since I barely played when Sentinels dropped, but I've had no luck finding pillars that give one. I tried looking on the wiki for planets, but most of the portal glyphs take me to a completely different system with no idea where the listed one is. I guess a secondary question is: are the multitools set in stone when you generate them, or can you save right before and roll until you get a royal one?
Are tropical planets bugged? [Question]
I've been looking for a perfect spot to start my nip farm and lots of the tropical planets look like toxic or scorched types.

Help needed [Question]
Hello guys, im doing the new expedition, and im trying to figure out How do i build my base there, the base computer isnt appearing for me
Alright guys soooo since polls aren't allowed here [Question]
Alright so for awhile now I've not played no man's sky I got bored with the story as it got repetitive ngl because I had everything I had a fully decked out ship etc. So Reddit I ask should I restart my no man's sky and start from scratch?

Good mod for planet generation and draw distance? [Question]
I'm not wanting to go crazy with mods in this game but I do like how some mods change the way planets generate, the depth of how far you can dig, depth of oceans, how plants spawn/types of plants/density of plants and etc.
My only other issue with the environment is how I can see not too far away the blatant line between grass being drawn and no grass being drawn. I am running on ultra and it's still awful. I think I've seen some mods touch on this.
I have been looking at the "lasagna" environmental mod I'm just waiting for it to be updated by the author for outlaws. While I'm waiting, I wanted to see if there is an overwhelmingly preferred mod for what I'm looking for as I know there are a few.
Thank you so much!!!
I'll throw a mod recommendation down and say I LOVE the "no lag" mod. I am finally, after years, able to leave a planet smoothly without a split second freeze when entering space. It's such a small thing but such a big impact after being annoyed with that little bug for so long.
Can you build a base on your expedition save file? [Answered]
New player here. I tried building a base on expedition save file but i cant really find the base computer on the building menu. Tried to find a blueprint on the anomaly but couldn't find any. I went back on my normal save and I could be a second base no problem. So you cant build a base on expedition mode? or am I just dumb.
What’s the point in the game? [Question]
The title might be a bit miss leading but is there an objective? Last time I played I had no idea what I was doing other than buying random ships. Can someone explain the game to me or link a video tutorial on what to do?
Unable to get past "Press LMB to Begin" [Question]
I downloaded No Mans Sky to try it in VR, it wouldn't let me progress past the main screen. I tried loading it normally and still won't let me progress, I saw some "fixes" stating to update everything that has to do with Xbox and everything is already up to date. I run an RTX 3080, and i71200k and 32 GB of ram, any real fixes out there? Or should I just give up?
Question about upgrading a ship to S class [Question]
I'm currently trying to get a specific ship as an S class. Is there any difference stat-wise between buying the ship as an S class versus upgrading the ship to an S class? I've always just sat around waiting for the ship to spawn as an S class but this specific one is taking forever
Rule: Don't Build Base at Observatory!! [Question]
I thought it would be handy having a landing pad already there for my first base. But now the pirate attacks on the observatory are ridiculous.
Do they ever go away if I don't attack them? Do they actually DO any damage? To the observatory? To my equipment and building if hit?

Sean PLS: Show us the color of the sails in the ship inventory menu [Suggestion]
There's no place where you can buy a ship and tell what color the solar sails are. In the station and in atmosphere, the sails are already retracted by the time they enter your field of view, and the inventory view you get when you make an offer on the ship doesn't show them. You can only see them once you've bought them.
That kinda sucks. You need to know what you're buying!
Please make it possible to see the sails in the inventory view, or have some other indicator we can see that tells us what the sail shape/color is.
Overall, this is a great update. Just a suggestion!

Why can’t I find a settlement on my planet? [Bug]
So I’ve gone through 10 or so charts to find a settlement on my home planet no matter where I am on my home planet I never get a settlement on it I’ve been in my ship in a freighter on land next to my base and an island on the opposite side it always goes to another planet sometimes minutes away but if I’m on another planet it always points to a settlement on that current planet. Please help if you know how to fix this or find it on a specific planet

Help with Shipbuild: What tech should i build in my ships? [Question]

Need more decision points to avoid stale gameplay [Suggestion]
TLDR: There is no decision making, leading to stale gameplay. No Man's Sky is Groundhog Day where the planet changes color. All these updates are most certainly steps in the right direction, but until they start to have meaning or provide choice, it will be a game you play 2 weeks then move on.
As a concept, I think NMS is probably the greatest video game idea ever, but the execution and gameplay are shallow and inconsequential.
I think I have a love/hate relationship with this game, and I always feel betrayed by what it could be; perpetually disappointed with what it is.
This could be purely anecdotal or it could be considered feedback to Hello Games, who knows.
It has such potential and every update I see gets me back on the train for a week or two... but then I am reminded that for all its change, it is still fundamentally flawed - nothing is of consequence.
Some examples that come to mind: Infinite planets and systems:
All play the same. The weather effects don't really matter, other than changing the color of your hazard bar. Mechanically, it's the same gameplay regardless of what effect it is.
I don't have to think,
"How will I survive on this planet".
Maybe toxicity should have a different requirement than heat, which has a different one to radiation?
Ultimately the only real change is "this one is blue and has xx product available". Fauna:
Similar issue as the planets. They all do the same things. They look different, but act and interact with the world in the exact same way. You tame them in the same (virtually free) way, and they do the same things. Drop pellet, give pats.
Maybe they require certain flora found natively on the planet, meaning I have to hunt or study them for a bit before I can tame and breed them. Teleportation:
Short and sweet, I don't need to find the perfect planet because...
Couple things I would like to see in game [Suggestion]
Gas giants to harvest gas (or ability to setup a gas harvest station around gas giant.) Maybe takes a long time to harvest and helps double your hyperdrive jump for 1 or 2 uses, something like that.
Ability to assault big ship and board them having shoot outs with NPCs in 1st person, searching for various loot.
The short list... [Discussion]
Quality of life improvements I'd like to see added to the game:
Economy and Combat scanners for freighters.
Ability to switch ships in a station.
I tried liking it [Discussion]
So I just got done trying out No man's sky after hearing it's the best space game on console .(Put in 100 hours)
I really wanted a different space game to play after hear Elite Dangerous isn't going to be getting any new content on consoles.(3000 hours in Elite Dangerous )
The exploration sounded really cool but after jumping around and looking at each planet I came across I didn't feel like there was any actual reason to do so. (In Elite Dangerous you get paid for exploration)
I did all of the main quests there was and that part was very fun I wish there was more.
A BIG thing I don't like is the constant combat , like I'm never able to just fly around without getting into a fight and with how extremely basic the combat is I don't find it fun .
Everything in this game needs a bit more depth to it then maybe I would enjoy it more , it feels very barebones.
I know this post will get hate but i felt I should vent about a game I thought i would love and ended up not.
Outlaws Expedition - Finding a Sentinel Pillar [Question]
I'm almost through the expedition but having trouble getting a Sentinel Pillar map. I just can't seem to last long enough to get one that will drop a map. In the air, I can hold sentinel forces at bay indefinitely. On the ground, I get overwhelmed. Advice would be appreciated (or an alternate way to get a sentinel pillar map).
Three ideas inspired by Outlaws. (Minor spoiler warning) [Discussion]
Solar-class ships could be variable geometry fighters, like swing-wing aircraft or Macross mecha. I love the fully retracted look of these and wish I could have it on demand. Variable geometry also offers real benefits to a flight model.
A control toggles between three modes:
Sails out and you get average flight characteristics but higher speed and full energy recharge effects, bonus damage to weapons.
Pods out, sails retracted and you get maximum maneuverability but low speeds and no recharging.
Pods retracted for a huge boost to speed but minimized maneuverability and lower gun damage. The abandoned ship tumbling through space should be salvageable, as a new type of distress beacon. Minor spoilers ahead.
In the pirate quest there is a part where you drop out of pulse to find a solar ship tumbling through space. It would be very cool if these could become random space-based opportunities or distress beacons picked up at comms stations.
How to recover them, though? That brings us to:
Extra-vehicular activity (EVA). We have space, we have jet packs, and we have broken ships. We should be able to leave our ships and fly over to other objects in space. A zero-gravity bubble could be erected around a wide area whenever a player leaves a ship. This could also help with game-breaking sudden plunges through a freighter floor.
Ship salvage, asteroid multi-tool mining, flying from frigate to frigate, hostile boarding of 'enemy' freighters, frigates and space stations could all become possible.

Pro Tip: When smuggling, use the portal network [Discussion]
Now, I know what you must be thinking, that pirate stations and non-pirate stations are on different portal networks. That is true.
However, player-made portals are connected to both of these networks. If you have a portal at your base, you can warp to there from the pirate system and then on to wherever you’re selling your goods.
The space cops will never even suspect you.

Twitch Explorer stats [Discussion]
So I just claimed the explorer from the Twitch drop of the day. It comes as an A-class with a damage potential of 225.9! You can imagine my surprise as explorers typically don't reach above a damage potential of 100. Anyway! I upgraded it to S-class with nanites and the damage potential dropped to 54. Obviously I reloaded from my autosave previous to the upgrade and my damage potential was back up to 225.9. Anyone else seeing the same?
will we always have access to the twitch drops on new saves like with expedition rewards? [Question]

Walker brain Expedition 6 [Question]
guys, i am looking for a way to get the walker brain, other than combat? i used to find anomaly missions or mission agent missions, but can’t find them in in E6. the thing is, i find the recent sentinel upgrade very annoying. just waves after waves after waves. i’m just not into ego shooter games.
is there an alternative for a walker brain? otherwise, i guess i drop E6. too tedious.
Vr version not picking up Oculus controls! [Question]
Hey all,
sorry if this post has been done to death.
Recently got NMS, wanted to try it in VR but can't seem to get the controls to work?
I am using Virtual Desktop with the Quest 2.
Every time I launch the game in VR mode, it seems like it picks it up,
But none of the controls work and I get an exclamation mark on the bottom right. Steam says it can't find the action manifest so I was wondering if there was a fix for this? Never had a controller problem so was wondering if this is a bug with the game or something else??
Thanks!
Fall deaths in permadeath are the worst. [Discussion]
I wouldn’t mind going out in a blaze of glory in a fire fight with sentinels or even dying of exposure to the elements as I desperately try and make it to shelter… but hopping over a small hill and dying on impact sucks. Tried permadeath for the first time today. On my first effort I didn’t even make it off the planet. On my second try I died about an hour or so into it from fall damage jumping over a small hill. On my third go I survived some 7 hours and had acquired an S class explorer and was making progress only to die on an airless planet because I misjudged the lack of gravity and had no boost to ease my fall. Ugh…

Question about Genetic Modifications [Question]
Good morning/day/evening, everyone. I’ve been out of the loop of No Man’s Sky since the Companions update and have been very pleased to see Outlaws has made my favorite creature, the long-tailed moth (or Dragonfly as I’ve seen it called), able to be tamed. As of now, I have one freshly hatched from an egg with max inheritance in size/weight, gentleness, playfulness, and devotion, while leaving color as my default discovery. That being said, I do want to do some more modifications to this one’s offspring to see if I can make something similar in colors to my favorite moth types in reality, the luna and bloodvein moths, but I have two main questions regarding the other traits:
-The current offspring hatched with the maximum size inheritance, so will its offspring be of the same size? If it is, can I make the new offspring even bigger should I decide the current generation isn’t large enough?
-Will the next offspring have the same 100% gentleness, playfulness, and devotion as the parent, or will I have to modify the offspring’s personality again?
I apologize if questions like these have already been answered, but I wasn’t able to find any information before making this post. That being said, thank any and all who reply for whatever information they can provide.

What am I doing wrong with Sunken Antiquities mission in E6? [Question]
The main issue is I can't seem to interact with the ruins to get the trident key.
The first ruin I got to was in range of a base and I couldn't dig. But the base owner had pre-dug the chests, so that wouldn't have been a problem, except I couldn't interact with the black blob thingy, so I couldn't get the trident chest key. I thought maybe it was because of the base being in range.
So I found a second ruin, also within the range of a base, but this one I could interact with the blob and got a key. I opened a chest, but it was empty.
Then I found a third and fourth ruin, but with both of those, I can't interact with the blob, so I can't get another key. It's very frustrating.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Anyone with advice, I would really appreciate some assistance. Thanks!
Pirates Completely Ruined the Game for Me [Discussion]
Insanely annoying to be trying to build and constantly hearing pirates acting. No biggie, just ignore them and keep doing whatever I'm doing. So I've played like that the past few days, ignore pirate attacks unless I need a quick 250k and all was well.
Then out of nowhere an insanely strong pirate insta kills me in one pass? RIP to my 20+ hours of progress. Not even motivated to try again. I wasn't that far, but the idea of getting instantly killed on a chill planet at any given moment. Constant badgering of enemies was already getting on my nerves, but how are you supposed to survive perma death like this?
Derilect freighter missions not working [Question]
I don't really know what to class them as, but the mission/exploration of derilect freighters is not working whatsoever for me. I dont know if it's just me, but after a certain point, there is a door that just will not open. I dont think its intentional, theres tendrils covering it that I have to clear, I used an emergency broadcast signal like every other time, yet the door will not open. It's happened three times in a row, and i dont want to waste another 5 million units just to get 100-200 tainted metal and leave. Has anyone else experienced this, or found a work around for that matter? I really just want to get one fully completed freighter done.
I really don't like to complain about NMS - when I'm not having fun anymore, I just stop playing for a while - but the situation is just ridiculous. I'm at the bottom of the sea, with no buildings around, no submarine, and pirates are shooting at my head. It doesn't make any sense. Although I like NMS for the peace and quiet, I really loved the Sentinels and Outlaws updates, but this bug of pirates attacking us every five minutes is just too much. The guys up in the sky and bombing us under the sea!

I’m wondering if this is a bug because I don’t think the damage done to ships should be the same for people.

this game has become quite insufferable again... [Discussion]
seriously, it seems like every major update comes with some massive oversight that they either take forever to fix (which is reasonable, the game is massive) or fix immediately and wait an obnoxious amount of time to send out to the solid build... its driving me up the walls
i get attacked every 15-45 sec no matter where i am, what im doing, or even no matter the conflict level.... it was one thing to constantly need to pop back in my ship to kill the pirates so i could go back to managing a settlement, building a base, or even just trading... now they're literally hunting me down like a rabid dog and turning me into a smoking crate, cant hide at all because they know exactly where you are and can fire through literally everything, even the crust of the planet, i literally reached max standing with all three species in a day thanks to the sheer amount of pirate raids, its obnoxious and we've already been told that they have a fix on the EB for it, but thats just telling console players to piss off
which brings me to the second major issue, inaccurate hints to find animals, on my main paradise planet the last creature is an aquatic creature thats always active, but only found in lakes and oceans in the north... the problem? THERE NO WATER ON THE NORTHERN HALF OF MY PLANET. ok, maybe its a fluke, so i go to try and finish other planets, i managed to get one for a unique planet... but its because there was only 1 species, but the next 15 regular i tried the last ones were never spawning or had impossible parameters, like a fish on a desert planet, like... i understand it cant just be a super easy task, but there is a middle ground between impossible and possible
im also a little miffed on the whole no middle ground for death consequences, its either all or nothing in...
A n i m a l n o i s e s [Question]
Can someone explain me, if they know the reason, why all animals make the same noise? Aren't they supposed to be unique or smtg? I mean this is a game in which you can travel from a galaxy to another and you compare a little what seems like tiger with horns on one and a flying squid-crab on another and THEY MAKE THE SAME SQUEEKY SOUND!! This is a good game, a very good game cause honestly I'm hooked, but I don't feel fully immersed tbh and I think I can blame it mostly on the sounds. Ohh and also why do they all walk the same way? And why do I look like I'm cowgirling them when I'm riding them? At first I thought it was funny but just like the noises I'm starting to be a bit annoyed.. I saw a post about that from 4 years ago and still, no change.. if the devs see this, believe me it would be a big upgrade to put the focus on the fauna for the next update, and hey while you're at it, why not add a few smol birds, would be nice to hear them chirping coming out of my base
Returning player looking for some tips. [Question]
I say returning but i might as well be new, i played thought the game back in 2018, and there has been so much stuff added, like pets, living ships?? and wtf is community expedition?
Anyways is it still recommend to do atlas first then artemis? i read that atlas was reworked, back in 2018 i think the atlas quest gets bugged if you complete Artemis first.
Traveling to another galaxy also seems to have been reworked now you can travel to your old bases via portals? does this mean i get to keep my freighter fleet? also i remember most people staying in the starting galaxy but since you can just teleport back im guessing this is no longer true?

Need help, total noob [Discussion]
Hello all, I just started playing this game after years of not playing and I am completely overwhelmed and back to being a total noob. I didn't have an old save so started afresh and literally have no idea what I'm doing.
I watched some guides but they seem to be aimed at more experienced players. I'm struggling because after farming some resources to recharge and refuel stuff I have run out of inventory space. I know I need a better ship and better gear, but I have no clue how to go about doing this. I don't even know how to make money effectively and make nanites.
Please help, I'm playing on Xbox series X btw.

Update issues [Question]
So, I haven't played in a while and decided to get back into it. Started a new file and everything. And holy hell, the bugs are crazy. Found a seemingly nice planet to build a base after some grinding, giant mushrooms and red grass that glow in the dark. A cool spot for an early base. Or so I thought.
I can't get the base parts to snap together. As soon as I tried to add pieces to the main part, it bugged out on me. I don't mind trying again in a different spot on the same planet tomorrow but goddang.
And what is with the constant attacks? Literally ever couple of minutes, a new wave of NPC assholes harassing me! I bearly can get out of my ship and try and build with the newly broken build menu and ineffective snaps when another wave comes in!
I'm not a noob, had the game since launch. I've built mining farms and all that jazz. And as cumbersome as the building system was, this new one is just crappy. I know that there will probably be a patch that will fix (fingers crossed) these issues but the last hour and a half have been just utterly frustrating. Is there something that I'm missing on the building mechanism?
Also, if I'm going to get attacked every two minutes, can I get some turrets or something? Friendly ships join the fight but they are apparently are only equipped with laser pointers...

Suspicious Packets WAYYY too cheap [Discussion]
Suspicious packets (Goods)(Weapons)(Technology) are WAYYYYY too cheap. It must be an error with the pricing.
At the black market dealer they are about $200 each and you can buy 150 in one trip. EACH packet usually contains an item worth $30,000+ or tech that can be salvaged for nanites in each packet.
Some packets I opened contained artifacts worth $1mil each. I paid $200 for the packet.
So 150 packets from 1 run would cost about $30,000. and net about $10+ MILLION AND 5000 NANITES. As a new player who came across a black market base. I did that and I feel it has almost broken the game. I leap jumped WAY ahead in tech, money and credits within a few minutes. each packet should be minimum $20,000 credits... Even that is very low. I am hoping this is a pricing error

Nexus mission question [Question]
Hey all,
I've been playing nms since the beginning, got over 1,2k hours in the game and still nowhere "finished" but here's my conundrum: I've never played with other players. None of my friends are gamers, the ones that are don't play nms or invest so much time into one game. So I guess I'm used to soloing everything, especially given that I'm reluctant to talk online, English isn't my native language and I'm rather shy with new people, I prefer housewife mode of games much more now to tearing down the universe style. Guess relaxing games are more my style now getting older :O
Don't think I like playing with unknown people, hate typing in games. I've ALWAYS stopped playing other games when there came the need to be dependend on other players to continue with the story or advance the character. Games like warframe, guildwars and now lost ark, so I got back to playing nms.
What's the etiquette doing nexus missions? Are they hard soloing`? I enjoy exploring much more than combat and this recent update has made me fight so many pirates :O but it's the sentinel ships that are really annoying. What's the deal with the nexus? I wouldn't mind having some shiny personal upgrades so I guess I have to plunge into the deep end?
Thanks in advance from a socially awkward gamer ;)
TL;DNR: Never played with others, how are nexus missions?
Money Bug [Bug]
Vy'keen Effigy. Lets me sell all 6 of mine for 150k except it lets me keep selling it and printing money. It doesnt actually sell it it just prints me money
All these updates are great, truly amazing, but... [Discussion]
I think the game would benefit A LOT from an update focusing on multiplayer and how you're interacting with other players. Something on a bigger scale, to make you feel important in the community. Something like... clans? Guilds? Player factions? The city-building update would also integrate well with it. There could be a Rust-like cupboard system where the players have to constantly fuel it with resources else everything decays. And perhaps other factions could attack your faction's properties?
Ah screw it I'll get straight to the point. I want more PVP stuff. I want to be able to grief other players. I am a savage, I get it. I'm a caveman. But I think PVP/Competitive multiplayer is such a big part of online gaming. I realize this might not be the game for it and maybe I'm asking for too much. Obviously I'm not asking for esports, and I realize that what I described would be hard to implement due to the sheer size of the procedurally generated universe. But I think it would pay off. Thoughts?
is the online co-op any good in this game? [Question]
Is it possible to have a "guild" base in multiplayer? [Question]
My friends (5-6 players) and I are getting back into the game and want to set up a community base where we can all live next to each other. However, with all the updates (which is a great thing!) it's hard to keep track of the changes to the game.
Any of the more seasoned players know If this play style is possible? Will my friends be able to use my refineries/landing pads/ storage stuff?
Thanks for the help.
Lost track of final systems in Blighted Expedition [Question]
I got to the end of the Blighted Expedition (screenshot as proof), and needed to upgrade my hyperdrive to reach the core. While finding enough upgrades for my hyperdrive, I managed to lose track of the actual system I should be leaving from. Every system I can teleport to is 600,000+ LY away 😞. Since I've already been to the Rendezvous points, it won't give me a waypoint for them now.
Does anyone have a Portal address for anything near the core? Ideally I'd love either the start or end of the portal trip that's part of the expedition, but really, anything within a few thousand LY of the core would be deeply appreciated 🙏
Took a blackhole in Expedition [Answered]
I took a blackhole in the expedition, and I’ve now been following the Expedition route for several hours now.
Did I just doom myself to this for hours on hours or is there a better way to get back on track?
Question about Freighter Battles [Question]
I was wondering how to trigger Freighter battles as in an ~20 hour save been to 30 systems I’ve only had 2 freighter battles trigger even tried waiting 3 hours the warping 5 times to not have it trigger and the 2 times I had random triggers I was never offered onto ship even when I made sure I never hit the ship
Is there an option to remove my base? [Answered]
I constructed a building inside the settlement from the base maker, now there's a building under construction inside of it after doing the settlement quests. Did I fuck up?
what weapons do you use? [Discussion]
I use:
Starship - Infra Knife+Photon Cannon
Multi Tool - Boltcaster+Pulse splitter
I have always used these and am curious what others use and why they prefer those, might be time to try new things!
I’m quite overwhelmed by the game, and don’t know what to do… [Question]

Are there supposed to be around 1500 Sentinels attacking my settlement? [Bug]
I returned to the game after 7 months, and I fear I may have a 7 month buildup of Sentinels attacking my settlement. I get 2 FPS when I try to go near. Please help
So this pirate update... [Question]
So it's not like the Settlements update was super great or anything, with the settlement buildings looking all alike with absolutely no option to freely build, the only thing its good for is passively grinding 2 items. UNTIL this new jeanyus (genius) pirate update. Is it just me, a bug, or intentional of them to make it literally have pirates attack 2 seconds after I land, after fighting pirates off, after fighting sentenals off, after fighting pirates off, after dealing with a visitor, after fighting pirates off? All with in 30 minutes of me relaunching NMS after being bored utterly senseless after the last half baked update.
Weekend Nexus Mission bugged? [Bug]
My bad if I'm just missing something obvious here, but I'm still pretty new to the game. I was doing my first Nexus Mission, called herbivorous bloodshed. It warped me to the system and showed my objective on a planet in that system (was a leaf icon indicating where I was supposed to go. When I arrived there was nothing there, and the icon would sort of move around as I panned the camera around in the ship, almost like it was underground or something. I even tried using the terrain manipulator Incase that's what was going on. But the most confusing part is the icon would disappear the second I hopped out of my ship.. making it difficult to pin down what I am looking for. I flew back into orbit many times to make sure I was in the right place, and locking on to the icon would always send me back to that spot. When I pulled up some YouTube videos of people doing this mission it looked a bit different for them. They would see the icon clearly leading to a thing they could interact with. Just throwing this thread out there in case anyone else has ever had this happen. Or maybe I'm missing something..
Thanks for any help with this as I was pretty confused and trying to figure it out for way too long
Solar Ships Sounds Very Loud [Bug]
As the title says, in my game whenever I'm flying a solar ship and the sail is extended, the sounds it made is very loud and it's on the higher frequency so it's very irritating to hear constantly. After using it for a while, my ears legit started to hurt. It's a shame as I was really looking forward to use a solar ship as my main starship. I tried using a different solar ship and restarting my game, but the issue persists.
I'm wondering if this happens to anyone else? I tried searching for this issue but haven't found anything yet. I've also checked the experimental branch patch notes on steam and there's no mention of this as well.

Heya, I recently purchased NMS when it was 50% off since I read a couple threads saying this game has improved a lot since release so I felt like giving it a chance. I already knew the soundtrack was great and I love the genre (open world third person exploration and crafting games) so why not.
So before I start, are there any important tips for beginners, something that it's important to know before I start? One example, not sure whether normal or survival is the right choice for a new player. Thanks!

Problem completing the blighted freighter. [Question]
It seems a volcano has spawned on top of the orb you have to check to advance the mission. Is there anything I can do? I tried leaving the system and going back and restarting game with no luck. Did I miss something? I watched some videos of other players completing this mission with no volcano in the spot…

Trouble obtaining hardframe engine [Question]
I have went through about planets, going through every wave untill sentinel force disabled, i make sure to get every crate they drop but i just dont get the hardframe engine, is this a bug??
Uh I might have a problem continuing the story [Question]
A little premise: i left teft the game for few years (like 2/3) and I created a new save so I am at the: Ghosts in a Shell mission.
At a certain point in the mission is required to get a Multi-tool upgrade from a space station, seems easy enough: the problem being that I have to buy the upgrade in the station in the system where I started the mission itself.... I have started it in a pirate system and the pirate station doesn't have the guy selling upgrades.
Before hearing suggestion I will write what I have tried until now:
Buying the suspicious upgrades, trying to travel far enough to trigger the reset realizing that since is a main quest mission it can't be resetted, going to another station and trying to buy the upgrade there, and yeah i talked with everyone in that pirate station and no one is a multi-tool trader (the one requested by the mission).
just thinking: Sentinel Drone Pet (✓), Sentinel Exomech (✓), Sentinel Quad Companion (✓), Sentinel starship... [Suggestion]
Outlaws may be my favorite update yet. [Discussion]
I understand that one bug is ruining everyone else's experience but I just want to say the fact combat has more depth to it makes the entire experience so much more engaging for me and I don't really play this game for combat.
While the pirate attacks are annoying I genuinely hope HG doesn't make it super rare and just makes it happen this frequently in high conflict systems.
Also, the new solar ships (especially the sails) are the best ship-related content we had besides living ships. Traders can now pursue the fantasy of being illegal drug lords.
This update combined with the Sentinel update provides the combat overhaul the game NEEDED for years. NMS is NOT a combat-focused game but this overhaul has made it so much better. As for builders (I'm so sorry) and explorers they are having their first impressions of this wonderful update ruined by that one bug.
Please, let us be patient for the patch to go live so everyone can enjoy this update. And don't dismiss this update because of a single annoying bug they already are working on fixing (for you PC players, enjoy the experimental patch while we wait).
Edit: Thanks to the new ships and capes I exclusively play this game in third person now.

Screen freeze crashing when fighting sentinels [Question]
Don't normally bother with the combat side of the game but the new expedition asks you to kill sentinels.
I can get maybe one wave in then suddenly i'll shoot a shot that'll hit a sentinel and the game will freeze, can hear sound but its not responding in task manager.
It's really annoying, i'm loosing interest in this expo. Anyone had similar issues? i did a search but cant see any threads.

Help needed for a beginner [Question]
Hello fellow travellers, me and my friends recently got this on sale. We started today and I'm sure this has been asked a million times but what are some good starting pointers? Just a few general questions I have
Not sure what we should be working towards first, I've gotten as far as getting my hyperdrive up and running. Is it important to work towards getting a new ship anytime soon? And just generally what we should be aiming for soon, we've set a base up on an outpost where we have ships coming and going. If we are playing multiplayer, does the same person have to host for all of our stuff to be saved? Or is it whatever multiplayer world we have set up, we will spawn back there with our progress made no matter who hosts?
Anything is greatly appreciated, thank you !

Phase 5 bug? [Question]
So basically I'm having a problem with the phase 5 milestone "Intergalactic" in which you have to travel to the last rendezvous system, and from there warp to the galactic core, but I can't seem to be able to do that.
I'm playing on PC, I've tried selecting the galactic core using the free look option, but it wont select the galactic core.
The distance from the current system I'm on to the core is around three thousand light years, my ship can warp only 1051 light years, and yes, I'm aware that your hyperdrive has to be fully fuelled (which it is) to warp to the core, but nothing is working.
Any advice is appreciated!
P.S. I don't know if this is a bug, or if I'm just doing something wrong, so therefore I'll flair the post as a question, if anyone is wondering why.
How do i get rid of my frigate and/or make 'recruit frigate' messages go away? [Question]
I have no interest in frigates aside from robbing them (atleast right now) but i saved a frigate and accepted it because i thought 'hey, free frigate i can probably sell later!' but now whenever i'm scouting a freighter i get bombarded with messages.
also i got a message 'resist them' from a abandoned ship in space with coordinates or something that are in another system. i went there, but nothing is happening related to it? when i view it in the galaxy map it has a skull next to its name n everything, but thats it

Expedition 6 Portal Help [Question]
So, after going through the portal and reaching Rendezvous 5, I headed to the Space Station and went back because I still wanted to finish the rest of the stages before heading through the centre.
Problem is, after I caught up, I cannot make my way back to that system. I can’t find the portal I used, don’t know the glyphs for that system and the Station Teleporters never take me to the system.
I even checked my discoveries for Hello Games systems and most aren’t there despite me passing through them.
Every time I remake the map and use it hoping to find the portal, it just disappears and never shows me the marker. I am currently drifting around Aktsahiro aimlessly trying to figure out something.
Even my Galaxy Map is of no use at it just ends here.

I love No Man's Sky. [Discussion]
I've been following the development of the game practically since its release, and I can't understand what's wrong with people who suddenly have their "eyes opened" to what a masterpiece this game is.
I don't want to say anything bad about the developers, they made a lot of mistakes, and they also fixed a lot of things. But! What a terrible game this is:
Bad optimization, lags, freezes, bugs, stuttering, sound problems.
Terrible storytelling (what's going on in the game anyway?).
Boring and frankly bad generation, which has not yet been fixed or improved.
Horrible overloaded interface.
Incomprehensible progression.
Don't get me wrong, the game has stepped very far from its original state, but it still feels like a disastrous craft. The character cringes at every pebble on the ground, I physically can't play with a third-person camera. With the latest update, pirate attacks have turned into clownery, sometimes it happens several times in 10 minutes.
Pets can climb in any direction, like horses in Skyrim. Did you die while exploring the Freighter? Boom, the quest disappears. Why? I don't know, it just disappears, get over it, player boy.
It's like that in everything, everything that's done is done for no one knows who or why. Why do I need new content if the old one is horrible and broken? I see it as a different game than it was in 2016. I see progress, and on superficial inspection, it's wow-effective. But is it really that good? No. Can developers do better? Definitely yes. Do they want to? Certainly not.
Why waste resources on troubleshooting when you can release update after update, discounting the game while getting pennies.
Where do the crowds of enthusiastic players come from? Where did all those reviews in Steam come from? I don't understand if we are playing the same game as these people.
I love No Man's Sky, this game is...
How to tell which are the pirates? [Question]
So as the title suggests, how do you tell which ships are the pirates? The trading post I'm at comes under attack by pirates on the regular, but every time I shoot a ship that's got a shield and health bar that's attacking, I lose standing with a faction (in this case the Vy'keen. It's really frustrating. I lost so much standing.

Something needs to be done about volcanoes [Discussion]
Last night I lost an evening's worth of expedition progress to a volcano, when the mission target revealed by the pirate map spawned inside one, and was unreachable.
After trying unsuccessfully to see if I could somehow dig/glitch my way to the inside of the volcano, I decided to instead teleport far away where it might let me reset the mission. It DID let me reset the mission. . . .unfortunately it reset it all the way back to the point where I need to activate the pirate map, which I no longer had, having already used it. With no way to get it back, since the 3 parts of it come from milestone rewards, I ended up having to reload a manual save from hours in the past and repeat most of phases 2-4.
Frickin Volcanoes, man.
I remember before we had volcanic planets. Everyone was like "HG, give us volcanoes! We really need volcanic planets!"
It was a fine idea, but the way it was implemented has been a pain. Volcanoes get rendered on top of the existing terrain, almost like buildings, or giant flora. Sometimes you can land or teleport to a planet only to have a volcano render in on top of you, trapping you inside it. (From the inside, the walls of the volcano are invisible, it looks like normal terrain under there, but you can't move outside the cone). Other times the thing you need to get to has a volcano on top of it and you are just out of luck.
Heck, I know now that the pirate map points to a portal. There is only one portal per planet, so if it happens to be under a volcano, that planet just doesn't have a usable portal, I guess.
I don't have any brilliant ideas, but I wish HG would do something about the volcano problem. They should have been implemented as actual mountainous terrain that can be dug into, or else some care should have been taken to make sure mission targets can't spawn inside them. I know it would be immersion breaking, but maybe...
Structureless Planets [Question]
Hi folks,
Found a nice bountiful earth like world I'd like to setup as my main home. I've been trying to use settlement maps bought from the local station to see if there's any ideally on this world or even in the system. Upon using the maps, nothing happens it just goes away. No marks on my HUD to lead to me anywhere, and using the Signal booster on the planet is also picking up nothing.
Could there really just be no structures of any kind on this world?
I've not spotted any so far from my limited exploration of the surface, beyond the odd knowledge stone.
I have Multiplayer questions! (First time playing since 2020) [Question]
Hey, I took a long break from the game and I'm finally back along with a couple friends who picked it up (and one on gamepass) I have a few questions regarding multiplayer and building a shared base or bases on the same planet. How exactly does the multiplayer work? I understand it's partially instanced with 32(?) players at a time. The other players don't really matter too much to us but this was just a general question so I have answers when my friends who are new to the game ask. If we load into "Person A"'s game and start building a base on a random planet for all of us, how does that function if "Person A" decides to leave early in the session? A follow-up to the previous question, if we're still able to build without "Person A" there, does the progress save somewhere? If not, when "Person A" loads up everything we do after they leave is lost? What is the best way to go about creating a shared base? Do you recommend each of us doing our own bases instead? If so, should we do different planets. Unrelated: What's up with all the pirate ship attacks, I've killed more ships in an hour than I ever killed since I started playing the game. Went from 15kills to 50+.
Just want to close by saying it feels good to be back and we're all having a blast playing the game. We found a nice planet that is absolutely beautiful at night, the mushrooms and other plants glow, and the grass glows in a wave-like pattern. We really want to set up a main base there.
Also it just occurred to me while typing this that I only added 1 of them (the gamepass one) as a friend IN GAME, the others I've had as friends on steam from a while back but not IN No Man's Sky, IDK if that changes things in terms of base sharing but I thought I'd include the information.
Constant hostile threats whenever I go [Bug]
Inside anomaly? Hostile threat detected
As soon as I land on a planet and get off my ship ? Hostile threat detected
No problem I can get back on the ship and deal with them.
I deal with them and as soon as I land again and leave. Another hostile threat detected.
I am losing my mind I cant do anything cause I am constantly getting attacked by pirates.

Expedition 6 Multitool? [Question]

Can't complete Phase 1: Liberation [Question]
Was just naturally doing the progression of the expedition unaware of how buggy it was yet as I hadn't looked up anything online at that point.
Jumped into system and had my first save freighter event happen
defeated all the pirates
Talked to the freighter capn and he gives me his piece of the pirate map
I look at the freighter but turn it down, it's very bad.
move on to bigger and better things unaware that the Liberation event should probably already be done at this point?
On the very next event I accepted the freighter but I've yet to receive any more pirate map pieces. So I'm sittin here with 1 map pieces this whole time.
Now I've had 20-30 freighter events happen but this event still hasn't completed.
Is there something I'm missing? Is there a way to fix or bypass this so I can complete the expedition?
Also of note I can't recruit anyone in to my squadron. It tells me my squadron is full but if I try and call my squadron it tells me I don't have anyone in my squadron :|
To the guy who built a base on top of a portal - screw you [Discussion]
I’ve been absolutely loving finding glyphs and seeing marks from players all over the world and seeing what creative players have put together.
But this one guy, this one damn guy, built his base right on top of a portal without any exits.
The only way to leave is to report the base as offensive which removes me from the location.
To everyone else, thank you for such a fun experience!

So my first priority is getting a cape, second is a weapon (weapons store costed like 3 mil for an upgraded multi tool but I could buy an bolt caster upgrade, should I?). 3rd is getting good ship. I heard something about salvadgeing good ships?

You can get about 100-125 suspicious packages with upgrades in them at any one given outlaw station for about 40k units. Unpacking those and selling them gives you 38k nanites.
Seems a little Op to me.
Both PC, both in multiplayer, on friend's list and in group, both have bases uploaded with connected and powered teleporters. Tried bases teleporters and the space station teleporters.
Both have all multiplayer options set to public/friends where applicable.
I can't see any players bases, let alone my friends.
I'm either blind and stupid or there's a bug of some kind... please, any help any one has would be greatly appreciated.

Galactic core. [Question]
I used the first glyph twelve times and it got me 5k lightyears away from the core of the galaxy. When I go to the warp map and get to the end of the galactic core path it would put me 4k lightyears away from the core, can I still warp to the next galaxy.
New to the PC Game. Having some issues [Question]
tl;dr: New PC, fairly beefy, NMS looks kinda junky. Works well on my less (but still relatively) beefy work laptop...what have I done wrong?
So, I'm sure this is an I D 10 T error, but I'm having trouble finding the answer on google (lots of old threads), so I apologize if this is common knowledge or an easy fix.
I have played hundreds of hours on PS4 Pro, but recently built a PC.
Running Ryzen 9 5900X and RTX 3070 (I'm not fluent in PC lingo, so if anyone needs more detail, feel free to ask). Also, all drivers are up to date.
I am playing at 1080p with all the settings on ultra. I noticed pretty quickly that it didn't look nearly as crisp as what I see on youtube/reddit, but I just figured I was just being picky.
As I've been playing, I've noticed that textures were almost non-existent so things looked smooth.
I started googling and saw some old threads stating that the in-game anisotropic filtering doesn't work, so I followed what they said and turned the filtering on to 16 in the nvidia manager.
Things definitely look better, but still not great.
I have a fairly beefy work laptop, has a 3060 Laptop GPU so I fired NMS up this AM just to see....runs like butter and looks great (1080p on High rather than Ultra)
I guess, my question is, since most of the links/threads I was finding are from 2016-2019, is there something I'm missing? I've thought about a clean install, but I don't know enough to know if that would even be worth the time.
Is this glitch known? [Bug]
I collected graviton balls and tried to sell them, the ones in my inventory and the ships were no problem, but the ones in the ships cargo can be sold an infinite amount of times. Dont know what I did for this to happen.

How to get outlaw cape? [Question]
Hello, I’ve been looking around online a lot and I’ve yet to see how to get the cape, help would be appreciated!
Saw this in r/weird and knew my interlopers would love the opportunity for some fresh nanites IRL! [Screenshot]
So, I was doing the quest where I'm instructed to use the forged passport but I ended up using it in a wrong space station instead of following the line to the selected system.
I reloaded to redo the quest properly, the Under A Rebel Star skull icon disappeared. It only shows whenever I enter the space station and I have no way to reset the questline.
I already saved the data manually, this destroys my chance to reset it... :\ I wasn't sure if it's already complete or it was indeed bugged.
Is there a way to fix it? Thank you very much in advance.

Atlas Pass Not Working [Bug]
I've been using an Atlas Pass v2 for a bit, and a few days ago, it stopped opening crates. The blue bar goes almost all the way down and just stops. I tried crafting a new one. No difference. I just crafted a v3. Still nothing. I'm playing on PC, and alternate between playing Multiplayer with a friend and playing solo in case any of that matters.
living ship glitch help? [Question]

Question about the twitch drops [Question]

QoL Things I Wish They'd Fix [Discussion]
Typically, with these big updates, they slip in a few QoL updates that address long-standing issues. However, the Outlaws update was pretty light on these.
Here are the things that I really wish they'd fix sooner than later: It's still a HUGE pain to buy upgrade blueprints from the NPCs in the backroom of the Anomaly. Sometimes it keeps you in the buy screen, but most of the time it kicks you out. I should be able to just go through and buy whatever I want and then manually exit the screen. Activating a portal still blows. It's so tedious to fill in each of the glyphs, and if you partially fill one, the flashing red title bar goes away so it's not obvious which one still needs to be filled. Opening my inventory almost never puts me into the inventory I wanted. If I'm outside of my ship, it should always open to my exosuit inventory, and if I'm in my ship, it should open to my starship inventory. The base thumbnails in the teleporter still don't show the actual base screenshots. They never have for me. My Freighter is glitched to green/black metal. I've unlocked every color option, but none of them actually change it.
What else?
Sale? [Information]
I played this on gamepass a while back does anyone know how often it goes on sale I’m trying to buy but don’t have a lot of money I just need to wait for it to go on sale if anyone knows when or how often that is
What's next? [Discussion]
The Outlaw update is probably the most fun and most engaged I've been with this game in a while. That isn't to say I haven't enjoyed the game, but this update has shot my enjoyment way up. That being said what do you think is next? In my honest opinion the next big step they could probably take is to add further depth to the factions/races. The settlement update was a solid foundation for npc interactions but I think the additions added in Outlaws pretty much pave the way for deeper interactions with the factions. I also feel they could add another faction/race into the mix that would call for some form of cooperation between the original 3 races but who knows. Either way I'm very much looking forward to whatever is added next.
Also seeing frigates in low orbit actually moving is mindblowing. I'm almost confident freighters are next.

Is there any way to make all alien unknown words known immediately? [Question]
So I was thinking of buying this game for my little cousin. He’s 8 and has dyslexia, so I wasn’t sure if this game would be good for him since “unknown” words are just random letters. Since reading is a struggle for him I thought this might just confuse and undermine his confidence in his reading ability. So I was wondering if there was a way to just make 100 percent of all words translated from the start. I know there’s the technology translators that translate some words, but I don’t think those translate 100 percent of the words even if you install all of them. I was just wondering if there was another way to do this since I think he’d really enjoy the game otherwise. Thanks in advance
Hoping in the next major update... [Discussion]
We get more variations on existing fauna and ships. More colors, more accessories, more faces and bodies, more engine and wings. Be cool to see further variety on older designs, both fauna and ships.
A few suggestions for base building with regard to the last few updates. [Suggestion]
I'm absolutely loving combat and piracy being more engaging elements of the game now. However, I find myself thinking about things like these pretty often, especially in more hostile environments that I seem to have a penchant for thinking would be a great spot to start a farm or something. Oops, anyway.
I know I'm flogging a dead horse here, but air defense/ point defense options seem to be critical now that we'll risk being attacked anywhere that isn't overtly peaceful. Perhaps they can be somewhat weaker than what player ships do, so the option of hopping in a ship to deal with it yourself doesn't become irrelevant. Make them buildable for settlements, too, cus you know... It makes sense.
Hazard protection field emitters with variable output: More power used = bigger bubble (or perhaps, more powerful yet costly?) Maybe can be limited to 1 per base, and maybe even only in non-survival/permadeath. The bubble wouldn't really need to be very visible if visible at all, like a whispy glass-like... bubble... that ripples subtly if it stops some environmental event.
Bigger, higher yield power options. They'd help with base clutter, and I know I'm not the only one that buries my electrification methods in a dark box underground. I'd like to be able to flaunt a few magnificent solar panels in a neat, organized network just outside my buildings. A nuclear/antimatter reactor as a direct upgrade to the biofuel reactor would be fantastic, too. Last note on this: Make them all snappable to floor panels, including the current ones.
Anyway, shoutout to the crew at Hello Games, y'all do an amazing job. Can't wait to see what you show us next!
less resources available to buy. [Question]
I can't see anything about it in the release notes or the bug thread but has anyone else noticed that the amount of stuff like oxygen, copper etc that you can buy at trade terminals has dropped massively? This screenshot was taken in an abundant system. You used to be able to buy thousands of O2 in a system like this.
I noticed it first in the expedition and thought it was just an exhibition setting, but this is in my main save.

is the game still worth buying in 2022? [Question]
i am thinking about buying no man's sky or red dead redemption 2, a game that i love and have played multiple times but its disk doesn't work anymore and i havent played it in 2 years.

treasure hunt expedition step...help [Question]
I am doing the blighted expedition and am on the treasure hunt step, I am using my visor to follow the pirate map coordinates that I recieved when I put the 3 map pieces together. I have been following it for about half an hour now. It will go down to about 440u, then subtly change directions and go up to 500u+, I am currently over 700u away, even though when I landed and started my target sweet, I was about 400 away. Imi just cannot get closer to it, the more I follow it the farther away it gets. Any ideas why or what I can do?
New Save Tips [Question]
So right now I’m considering starting a new save (I have almost 200 hours on my main). It’s definitely been a while since I have started again, and I don’t remember a ton about those first steps.

Either way thank you to anybody who responds, and safe travels out there!

So you can install mods for NMS on the Xbox App on PC now?? [Information]
I apologize if this is old news but I didn't see anything mentioning this when I searched the subreddit. Apparently, NMS on the Xbox app for PC is mod-friendly now! It's been a little while since I checked last but at the time when I did, we weren't able to access the files so installing mods wasn't an option. So everything you need to know is here if you've been wondering if you can transfer your Xbox save to Steam or if it was worth starting over so you can use mods too. No need to do either.
(And sorry if it looks as if my 5 year old drew these annotations for me. Had just woken up and was super blurry-eyed)
1. From the game page on the Xbox app click the ellipsis at the end then click manage
You'll know you did everything right if you see this after the title screen
If you're new to using mods just keep in mind since we recently had an update with a lot of changes a good number of them may not work at the moment if they...

No man's sky: Player Guilds [Suggestion]
I would love to see an update where we can form guilds with other players and form a Alliance, like in Warframe.
Each guild would have a "city" or "space station" of their own, where all guild members have access and can donate every tip of resource to make the guild base even bigger.
Guilds could have advantages, like special weapons or spaceships and each guild base would have their own missions like the ones from nexus.
I would like to see a guild type like the Dojo system in Warframe.

gamepass VS steam vr [Question]
Posted this in a different group with less members, figured maybe it'll get more attention here? Does anyone know if the steam version of NMS performs better in vr than the gamepass pc version? I know gamepass is basically just xbox ports but since NMS is already on pc I wasn't sure if there was a difference.
Inventory Sorting? [Suggestion]
Just wondered if there's a reason there's no like inventory quick sort option? To quickly sort all the items in your inventory into more manageable chunks. A lot of games of this sort have some sort of function like that, and I just wondered whether there's a specific reason it's not present in NMS? Any tips you have for how to sort your inventory would also not be frowned on too!
Not a complaint btw, loving my time with the game, I just think this could be a simple QOL improvement.

Solar ships and pulse engine upgrade modules? [Question]
I’m kitting out my first Solar ship and noticed that pulse engine upgrades have a very small impact on boosted speed. With 6 s class modules, all buildable blueprints and bobbles/ starship trails set up for max adjacency, I’m stil topping out at 3100 ish u/s.
A barebones s class solar maxes out at 2900u/s, so this is a pretty small increase for the amount of upgrades I’ve applied. Has anyone else noticed this?
Has anyone noticed that ship vs ship battles are now significantly harder? [Question]
Hi All.
Does anyone have or know of a good strategy to handle ship vs ship fights in space since the update? It feels like it's gotten significantly harder. I used to be able to win fights with barely any damage, and post-update I barely survive them with just a tiny wee bit of health left.
Unfortunately I can't upgrade things any further. All my shields are better than S class, etc. etc.
Anyone experiencing the same?
Base Building on Expedition [Question]
I have just come back to this game for the first time in years. I'm trying out the new expedition and enjoying it. I have found a nice planet that I would like to build my base on but I don't seem to be able to build a base computer. It's just not there on the list. Is this normal? Do I need to finish the expedition or something? If I'm missing something obvious, go easy on me. There's a lot to learn about this game! Thanks

Significant reduction of resources at stations [Question]
I recently noticed that the amount of resources that you can buy from stations has been drastically reduced. I've been playing for years and often would just go buy my materials from 3 star economies. I would always be able to get 3-4,000 of various materials from the trade terminals and then again from any pilot who lands. Anything from Ferrite Dust to Platinum. Quite often I would get an insane amount of oxygen as it converts to carbon for all my building requirements.
Now? Well, now the 3 star economies only have 6-700 of those resources. That's an 80-85% reduction in available resources. It utterly screams 'increase the grind' which seems quite unlike the Hello Games I have come to know and love.
I hadn't played since Frontiers so not sure when this change happened. It does leave me with a question however. I had relied on trade for resources as I often focus on building, i love the base building in NMS. I had gotten so used to a routine of buying metric shit-tons of Oxygen then converting to Carbon for building. So the question, and I kinda feel dumb asking this considering the hours I have in this game, what is a good and reliable way to get 10s of thousands of carbon very quickly? I stream a lot and don't really fancy having a stream dedicated to 2-3 hours of shooting trees.
I want to get into NMS again, but i'm finding it difficult [Question]
So i just reinstalled NMS for the first time again since early 2020. I completely forgot how i played the heck out of the game back then, so i had a couple of billion credits lying around, a massive frigate & a hauler that's maxed out.
But i can't really find a groove after reinstalling it & the gameplay loop doesn't seem to be the same.
What am i supposed to do? There's been so many updates since i played it & i'm kinda overwhelmed & confused at what i'm supposed to do now. My old bases are also gone for some reason.
I decided to run around & scan some new creatures but i'm literally getting blasted every 5 minutes by pirates, which is super annoying.
Does anybody have a list of where to go & what to do right now because i'm confused as all hell
How to get base computer blueprint [Question]

How much living space do Korvax actually need? [Discussion]
I’ve been working on my capita ship interior for the past few days, nearly done with the individual living quarters, and it occurred to me that my Korvax crew may not need all that space.
They’re robots, so they probably don’t need sleep, don’t need food (mess hall is for the organic crews of my frigate fleet), and they may or may not gather material items. Heck, you can start a conversation with one entity, just to finish it with another entity who swapped into their shell halfway through!
Are the beds and desks in the mission control rooms enough for my crew?
What to do about Pirates? [Suggestion]
Hello,
I just bought NMS for the first time yesterday. After getting to the Anomaly for the first time and discovering the storage chest blueprint, I went in search for a three star economy system to set base at the trade post in that system (per the SurvivalBob guide I am watching).
However, once to the trade post I have been under attack by pirates every 30 seconds or so. I came to Reddit and saw that this is a recent issue.
Because of this I really can't carry on with what I was doing. So my question is whether I should just quit the game for now? Should I play in another mode? Any suggestions?
Is the item dupe patched yet? [Question]

Some thoughts on this expedition and expeditions in general [Discussion]
after completing this expedition in a little more than 7 hours, I think this was the most uninspired expedition so far, it wasn't bad but i feel it could've been a lot better.
on the good notes, the theme was a good one, the search for the pirates was a good idea, and the treasure hunt added something fun to it, but it needed to be more fleshed out, i personally see this expedition as a missed opportunity to make a story more compelling, specially at the end where you travel the whole galaxy following the pirates, only to end building a base (?)...that could've been a great opportunity to show a nice design base (many players would be thrilled to help on that) to show The Blight in all height and might, perhaps have more interaction with The Blight, by using the Holoterminuses or subspace comms. here i am hunting an enemy i never got to see...it felt dissapointing.
On the more general aspects, i think expeditions have a very solid mechanic, they present a nice challenge every few months to complete, and as experience they have been a great adition, however some stages need to change, the whole "find & repair your ship" has got to go for while as is one that now has become more like a chore in every expedition. Also the expeditions have added some mechanics that could be reused (Historiographical Dosimeter, worm planets, treasure maps, etc). Of particular note is not seeing any worm nest planet outside the expedition, such a wasted opportunity.
In general one of the things the expeditions are mostly lacking is a proper ending, the Normandy expedition had an amazing ending to it, and that's the sort of thing I would like to see when completing one
Help with getting to the Galactic Core? [Question]
Hello everyone,
I am very sorry to ask this question, but I have been stuck on this problem for the better part of today.
The problem is that I can't select the Galactic core to warp to. I know that it has been asked a few times, as I have also looked through every single possible solution on the internet, but I am simply at the end of my tether and patience. I have checked and re-checked every single condition that I should meet in order to get there (Hyperdrive at 100%, all Drives installed, etc.). However, for me, the golden line/thread that would connect the galactic system that I am in with the galactic core (as a quest indicator) is simply not there. The faintest of threads only lead to the nearby systems that I have jumped to in an attempt to somehow debug the quest.
If it is helpful, I used the portal method of getting to the system. It is the closest one to the Galactic core (Hilbert System - closest to the Galactic Core at +/- 3082 LY).
If there are screenshots needed of anything, I'll happily provide them. I am just so lost.
Thank you so much if you decide to send any recommendations as to what to do, and hope that everyone that reads this has a great day!
Expedition 6 (Spoilers) [Discussion]
So. As Expedition rewards go, this collection is kinda meh, IMHO. I play solo with network turned off for the most part, so there isn't really much point in banners and titles. However, just like with several previous expeditions, there are some great perks. If you complete this expedition as a complete noob, you wind up with: Decent exposure to game mechanics, plenty of practice handling pirates and sentinels, and pointers to useful stuff like the blueprint factory in the Anomaly, a Pirate system, a deep ocean planet (Probably with a Nautilon platform still sitting somewhere so you can call it to your location)... Standing with all three system races and the Mechanics Guild, so you can do missions right away. All 16 glyphs for portal travel, without grinding for Traveler gravesites. A base on a paradise planet in the 90th galaxy! (and I guess, teleporter links to a bunch of systems in galaxy #89.

A bunch of blueprints you might not need, that you could sell for nanites (if you knew that Was A Thing You Should Do)...otherwise, a pretty buff scatter blaster, expanded hyperdrive range, some other freebies.

NMS Multiplayer [Question]
So is this game multiplayer. Can i for example make a world, my friend joins, we progress together, and everything works perfectly normal. If thats possible are there dedicated servers? Id like to be able to join a world without my friend being online and progress on it and the progression saves and my friend can see it once they get on. Like minecaft. Also open to mods if needed to achieve this. I basically dont want to have to wait on my friend to get online everytime i want to progress on the world we started together.

Trying to get living ship. [Question]
Hey everyone, I've finally managed to get the proper amount of quicksilver for a void egg. Im at the first convergance location and it gave me a recipe for a consciousness bridge. Normally building things isn't a problem I can tag items I don't have and the game helps me find them or their blueprint. How ever I'm having the damndest time finding hexite (my log doesn't have an option to tag hexite and get tips fod finding it) and a krovax casing. How do I find both these items? Any help would be appreciated.

Newbie [Question]
Hi everyone, new player here! I was wondering how does the save system worj in this game, i see sometimes those like checkpoints on planets sometimes and sometimes the game autosave by itself. My question is: Is there a way to trigger those autosave or a way to save on the spot ? I play a lot with my friends and when i try to join them, i always get that message saying: you didnt save for the last 20min etc.. and i lose all the progress i made in that last 20min.
I also have another problem where when i play with friends sometimes they dissapear even if we are on the same planet and it says, player name has left the system, even if they didnt leave and the group get disbanded everytime. Any ways to deal with that ? Its really annoying to get kicked out of a group from the game and having to load the game again to join my friends

PSA: If you're doing Expedition 6, visit this base. [Information]
I found this base on my starting planet of the expedition (Issh 62/R7), its called: Get Started! Copper/Oxygen/Plant Farm. -79.42, -109.35. Built by D_Tater_Salad
I got 89000 copper and 68000 oxygen plus all the plants. I feel like I'm cheating lol. Spent a few hours there and used the refiners to stock up on everything. Its also next to a trading post so i grabbed a new fighter as well (had the units to do so after selling copper). I'm starting this expedition more equip than I was through most of the last one. Thank you!
... at least a wee little bit, and that's SHIPS.
All these updates with settlements and basebuilding and all that jazz while nice to have just felt so utterly random and tacked on. Why? We got a quadrillion planets in a quadrillion systems. The whole point of the game is that eventually you get bored and you keep wandering - and what do you do wander in? Your ship, obviously. Your freighter and your ship are with you no matter where you go, they are the most elemental part of this game. It's not No Man's Land. It's No Man's SKY after all.
The thing is however, these systems have until now been rather bare bones. Freighter bases are mostly pointless in terms of functionality, and the ships... once you slap some basic tech into it, they are barely useful for reflecting your journery. And given how they are mostly same-y none of them are that special either.
This give me such massive hope regarding future updates for: Ship type being actually relevant with getting exclusive perks by type (Imagine Haulers getting High Capacity Cargo Slots, Fighters and Extra Tech inventory just for weapons, etc.) and potentially new types More Ship/Freighter design diversity in general. Ship creation and customisation. Let me hunt those specific black market parts, with either cosmetic properties or actual functionality changes (such as your warp drive running on faecium and ONLY faecium now). Hunt for elusive parts either through trade and discovery, or find a ship you want, blast it to pieces, and then hope the part you want is salvageable. There is so much possibility here, and ALSO a use for high level crafting products! Have Freighter Bases be actually relevant. The Freighter is supposed to be your main base of operations, outposts you build on the ground are adding to that....
Do frigates spawn on planets within outlaw systems? [Question]
I've only seen frigates show up in the skies above planets in legal systems. (The new feature, not freighters warping in space.) Has anyone found frigates flying about in Outlaw systems? The atmosphere of these frigates flying over is wicked cool, so I want to make sure I set up in a system that can have them.

Accidentally Cloned void egg and quest items [Question]
As mentioned in the title, I unwittingly did something that cloned every piece of the void egg minus the final part, and now I don't know what to so. I want to get another living ship, but I don't know how to trigger the quest again with out buying another egg. Is there anything I can do, like buy and give away one egg, and keep the parts to skip forward, or are the parts just useless now?

Serious question [Discussion]
(And no, I am not being sarcastic, or bashing the game in any way)
Does HG even have a QC department? Do they have internal or external betas for their patches before releasing them?
It seems like they release things willy-nilly with the expectation that they are just going to fix what is screamed about the loudest.
Just to name a few....
The Sentinels overwhelming settlements (in hordes) seems like a pretty obvious problem that should have been caught early on.
Sentinels raining down hellfire while you are on foot seems like a pretty obvious problem that should have been caught early on.
Being able to sell stuff from your starship inventory without the inventory being actually sold seems like a pretty obvious problem that should have been caught early on.

Stuck in another system and without antimatter blueprint/fuel for the hyperdrive [Question]
So, I began playing no mans sky again after a very very long time, and I made a new and updated savegame so i could play no mans sky in it's "latest" version; I did all the quests, fixed my ship, built a base and etc, but then i used my hyperdrive (which i didn't had to fix or recharge it) to go to another system, thinking that i didn't had any missions to do on the system I started the game, but when i reached the system, the game told me that the mission i had to do was on the other system (the one i began), so I said like "ok, I'll go back to there, but how will I recharge my hyperdrive?" then i searched online on how to make the hyperdrive cell or smth, and how to make antimatter, but I don't have the blueprint to make it. So... I guess i'm just stuck on the system I am right now, there's no outposts or space stations to buy things to recharge the hyperdrive. Could someone please help me?
S Class Freighter [Question]

It's been 6 years, can we PLEASE have a way to manually turn off hints/logs? [Suggestion]
It feels like a huge oversight that we can't turn this off at all. A lot of the times these "hints" are things I already know how to do, or don't want to do - especially when I'm starting a new game. We don't need a constant reminder of what we're supposed to be doing in the bottom right hand corner of the screen 24/7, a lot of the times what I'm doing isn't even related to the quest lines, guide, log, or any other aspect that might be hinted towards. I just want to go around ruining economies by buying vast amounts of dirt and selling it for profit elsewhere, not "installing geo-cannon" on my 8-slot multitool that I've already fitted out entirely and trying to find a better one (hence the dirt laundering).
I just feel like we should have the option to turn it off.

any tips to make a frieghter base [Question]
Are free freighters from distress calls not a thing anymore? [Question]
Hi all,
I've been playing NMS for quite some time (since it came out back in 2016). I recently got back into it because of the new Outlaws update. I've been playing through the story, I have about 6hrs or so in this new save and I've warped multiple times but I'm not getting the event to help a freighter and land on it to get it for free. Have they taken free freighters out of the game or am I just missing a step?
I should also add that I have jumped a bunch, I think I have the milestone for jumping at least 10 times and back in the day the even would trigger after just 1 or 2 jumps.

Anyone Know This Soundtrack's Title? [Question]

Selling unwanted ships [Question]
Hey there. Quick question that I'm sure has an easy answer. I have just done the Twitch events and got myself the 5 event ships, so now I have 7 ships. However I want to scrap a few of them but don't seem to be able to do that.
I mean, I jump in a ship, travel to a Space Station and try to scrap it but I can't because I don't have any other ships to jump into, and I don't seem to be able to summon any other ships to the Space Station.
I have a freighter too but I guess there's no way to scrap ships there? Likewise in a base?
Any ideas or am I stuck with having 7 ships total now?
ty in advance.

Can we play the main campaign together?
Also, I've heard/read that it's recommended that we both get to the point where we unlock a sort of multiplayer HUB (in single player), then we can start playing together. This was from posts of 2/3 months ago, so I don't know if that still applies.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Contraband/Illicit Substances prices issues [Bug]
Okay, I don't know if my game is bugged, or I'm doing something wrong, or what--but here is the sitch.
I go to blackmarket/outlaw systems, I buy some NipNip (trying to be the interstellar drug dealer I've always wanted to be) and the purchase price is around 68k per. I go to a commercial economy and go to sell at the galactic trade portal--it says 130% markup but the selling price is only 13k per unit--not only that but the price on the hub page and the price after I sold it were two different amounts, I ended up losing a lot of money due to this.
Am I selling in the wrong places? Is my game bugged? It is an old save about 40 hours or so, and it has been modded before.
Just looking for answers is all.

I just lost my recent save games and it is too much to handle... [Discussion]
How it happened:
I had an old version of NMS on my PC, it was like from 2016 and I just installed it to show my friend how much different the game was back then.
When I uninstalled it, I didn't think clearly and deleted all save games with it because it was a sperate program on my desktop without steam or anything. Thus I thought that it wouldn't affect my steam savegames.
Shockingly, I had to find out that this wasn't the case. When I started steam again and logged into NMS, all save games were gone.
I tried several recovery tools but unfortunately, they weren't able to locate my lost save games. I also did not have steam cloud activated, so this was also out of option.
I also tried restoring my system to some days before and then reverted it back, when I found out that there was no save games either.
The only save games, I was able to find, probably due to steam cloud save (which I activated after everything happened), were from September last year.
My main game save had 150hrs+ and I also had the new outlaws expedition finished, but all I have access to now, is a save game with 80hrs progress.
In the end, I guess I can just regrind everything and stuff, but it still hurts.
And the worst part is that I had a beautiful planet in the Eissentam galaxy, where I had build a base on an island. This base still exists and I would be able to get to the planet through joining my friend. However, I cannot claim the base, even though it is my base and logged to my name.
I will be sleeping over the whole situation and decide wether I continue that existing save or just complete start from scratch. Maybe you guys have similar stories of lost save games to share to brighten my mood?
(i.e.) my main save? Thanks, this is my first expedition :)

No Mans Sky: Harvesting Modifications [Question]

Is there a limit to the effects of Harvesting mods for a multi-tool in NMS? For example, if I fill all my slots with S-ranking harvesting mods (each giving 50-75% more stuff), will there be a hard limit to its effects? Thanks in advance!
What happened? [Question]
So I decided to build a base and in a system next to me there was a settlement and so I claimed it but for some reason my base wasn't on the map. For the longest time I was wondering why I couldn't find it, only to discover it got blasted to the other side of the galaxy. Has this happened to anyone else or am I just stupid and didn't notice it was already there?
Exploit PSA: You can sell items infinitely from Ship Cargo Inventory [Bug]
As title.
If you choose to sell items from your ship's high capacity cargo hold, the item won't leave your inventory but you get the units and the local economy is impacted as normal.
I've tested this with rarer items (expansion slots) and stacks of regular saleable items. You can just continuously resell items.
Interestingly, if you sell something stocked by the vendor, you can increase the held stock and buy it back with the massive price reduction that comes after. So sell a stack of cobalt 20 times, buy back 20000 copies, go elsewhere and sell at full price for huge amounts.
Sales from other inventories work as normal.
I know units are easy af to come by, but it's there and if people want a straightforward exploit to jump start their expedition, then this is an option.

Here's how it would work; the Pirate's AI would scan your ship as always and make a decision based upon their numbers, skill setting, and "desperation factor" vs your number of kills, kill ratio, ship weaponry, and cargo value. So, as you gain reputation, the pirates may decide the cargo you carry is not worth the risk.

Settlements: Why? [Question]
Hello world.
As mentioned in my prior post I'm returning to the game having skipped a few updates.
I've just completed the expedition and decided I'd see what these new settlements are... good-f***ing-god why do people do this?!
In the maybe fifteen minutes I've spent having a settlement of my own I've repelled at least half-a-dozen pirate attacks and had the settlers decide right as I enter orbit leaving the settlement planet was a good time to bring up some new issue twice.
This is all to say this is the most immediate regret I've had so far playing NMS. Do people actually care to work on settlements and if so why?
A point on duplicators [Discussion]
After spending enough time in the anomaly I think everyone has had some random crap dumped into their inventory at some point by a duplicator doing their thing. This is really annoying if you run around with an inventory that is constantly full like I do.
NMS is entirely PvE so if you want to duplicate items then fine, you do you friend. My point is, if you are going to use my inventory space to make yourself hundreds of expansion slots then at least throw one my way instead of a handful ferrite which I promise you I don't need more of.

( using a Cable to connect to my oculust quest 2, Also tried Oculus Air link and virtual desktop but the problem persists) NMS is the only game giving me this issue.
Does anyone know if there is something im doing wrong?

Solar Sail Ships Cost and Hoods? [Question]
So, what’s the price ranges for these Solar Sail Ships, I’ve not come across one yet in expedition yet. The hoods I keep seeing how do we acquire them or do I just change my appearance and will see them? Haven’t seen option for them in appearance editor just the capes.

I want to make a gang of real pirates, and raid actual settlements as well as other things. [Discussion]
This new update is right up my alley. I've always wanted to be a pirate/smuggler and I like the direction/concept of the update. I've long wanted to create a gang of like-minded pirates (or pirates guild rather). I'm just putting this out there on this subreddit in hopes of finding some fellow pirates who want to start a looting colony.

SOLAR SHIP FUNCTIONALITY PROPOSAL [Suggestion]
In a previous post, I presented my encounter with the Solar ships glitching and not extending any of their parts after take off, and how it would be nice if it became an actual in-game feature (the result was a killer looking ship).
There was a lot of input from the community, creating a lot of ideas and discussions on how it would work.
It got me thinking, and I would like to present my idea for how controlled extension and retraction would work.
WITH PODS AND SAILS RETRACTED : Intended aesthetically for Hyperspace. Engaging the Hyperdrive will automatically retract pods. Intended functionally for Combat. Available both in space and in atmosphere. Charging is disabled. Your current Speed and Maneuverability stats are unaffected.
WITH PODS EXTENDED ONLY : Intended for Pulse Drive and Flight Speed. Activating Pulse from closed position will extend pods automatically, but increases time before the drive fully engages. Available both in space and atmosphere. Charging is disabled. Your Maneuverability is reduced by 15% of your current stats. Your Speed is increased by 20% of your current stats.
WITH PODS AND SAILS EXTENDED : Intended for recharging Pulse Engines ONLY AVAILABLE IN SPACE. WEAPONS, PULSE DRIVE, AND HYPERDRIVE ARE DISABLED. In this position, considering it's purpose, both side pod thrusters are disabled. The solar panels are charging each pod respectively. Because of this, only the center thrusters are active. A secondary idea would be to also have the solar panels slowly charge shields, whether by default or via crafted tech. A highly vulnerable position. Your Speed and Maneuverability are both reduced by 25% of your current stats.

When Goldfish Go Bad [Screenshot]
Abandoned System??? [Question]
So very recently I’ve acquired a Cadmium Drive for my starship to travel to “Red Star Systems”. I needed it to gather Cadmium in said Red Star System to make the Soul Engine and Mind Arc for Artemis. (For the record, I don’t really know what I’m doing. I’m just going along with the story)But so I’ve reached this Star System, and the first thing that has surprised me is that I’ve found something called a [REDACTED] Planet which I’ve never heard of until now. And the second is that, and it may just be a visual glitch because I don’t see that little icon on my screen guiding me toward it. But I don’t see a Space Station. Another thing is that I saw that this Systems economy and conflict levels were unknown. So far the only signs of life I’ve seen so far are pirates. I’ve heard about abandoned Star Systems before but I don’t really know what exactly they are. So I’m wondering if I could possibly get a few questions answered?
Twitch Drops Issue [Bug]
Decided to start playing again with the Outlaws update. To get a slight leg up, I decided to participate in the twitch drops campaign. I'm on my 4th day of collecting rewards.
When I go to QNC, he has nothing for me. I've triple-checked and everything is linked/connected as it should be. Am I missing something?
We need guns on our bases! (Or just a fix for the pirates) [Suggestion]
Like everyone else right now I constantly get attacked by pirates while walking around planets. I am trying to build a base at the moment but I get new pirates attacking me every 3-5 minutes so I thought instead of getting in you ship every time it would be cool to have massive guns for your base that can just shoot down these pirates. I feel like this could be quite an interesting addition and definitely cool for decoration!
What is one feature that would increase replayability 10x with minimum added content? [Discussion]
It seems to me all the parts for PvP shooters, racers, and dogfighting is within the game already, HG just need to make streamlined places within the game for that to happen.

I'm confused about the new Outlaws Update. [Question]

I need help [Question]
I think I'm soft locked or something, my two primary missions are ghosts in the machine and The space anomaly and neither of them seem to want to work. Ghosts in the machine has me going to my solar systems station that is overtaken by bandits so I can't progress the mission. And in the space anomaly It just wants me to spend buried technology things but It doesn't tell me what it wants me to get. I dont know what to do.

Swap-able tech in multi-tools [Suggestion]
when a multi tool has every slot filled, you can't actually move the upgrades for synergies. Allowing the modules to be swapped without the need of an empty slot would be very useful.

I dont know if this is a glitch or something, but I abandoned my previous settlement to take this one over and theres not any actual settlers here. I love the location and I did a ton of work on it before I realized but its really disheartening not seeing anyone. Anyone know how to fix? I recently put down a bunch of base computers if that has anything to do with it, I don't remember if they were here before.

Game breaking resource silo exploit (PS4) [Bug]
(This is a infinite resource glitch done with resource depots/silos, if you don’t want to get corrupted with infinite money then try staying away from this happening)
So today I’ve found a exploit that I’ve searched on the internet for and found no results, so I will post it here. This involves another exploit done to skip egg hatching and animal growth cycles which is “time traveling” or just simply changing the time on console or steam. However I have found an interesting pair but I’m not sure if this is the direct cause. When your silos are decently filled, fast forward time a year or month into the future and auto save the game and reload, delete the resource collectors (Miner/Gas collector) and pipes leading to the silos. After this set back your time to normal. Once you have done this reload again and check the silos. If you have done it correctly it should show a MASSIVE number of that resource. In my case it was with oxygen at around 11,580,000. I assume this can be done with any hotspot as long as it is a hotspot and not a normal resource. If anyone is able to recreate this let me know.
I could’ve gotten an image but I deleted the silos so I didn’t end up filling all my inventories with oxygen lol

EXPEDITION 6 BUGGED: LIBERATION? [Bug]
I posted this on another thread, but I'll go ahead and post here as well:
I've rescued so many freighters and have yet to obtain this MAP people are speaking of.
Every time I rescue a freighter and visit the commander of that freighter, I do not get the liberation story line, they just want me to buy their ship, no map is given... In fact, after I rescue the freighter (for the 50th time) I get a message "Travel to another system", Rinse... Repeat.
I'm about to just start destroying Freighters and join the Pirates!
Hello Games, I love the work you do, but please fix this as this is the only thing hindering me from completing Expedition 6.
PS: I'm not starting over, I've come too far.
Anyone else experiencing this? AND.. Is there a fix?

Recently started playing and gotta say, I love it [Discussion]
I've been playing for about two days, but I wanted to play when it first came out, rough start or no. I'll admit the experience so far has been a little overwhelming, but altogether fun. I'd like to gush about a couple things that I'm adoring about it:
Yes, I'm very late to the party, and these are dorky things to be stoked about, but I love them all the same. Can't wait to put years into this game. What are your favorite parts of the game?
[BUG] infinitely spawning waves of sentinels on "A trace of metal" quest [Bug]
In "A Trace of Metal", a large group of sentinels(including a mech) are supposed to come down on your settlement, and attack it. once you take them down, as far as i can tell from descriptions of the quest online, it's supposed to immediately take you to the next stage of the quest. 1 fight, 1 stage. Thats not what happens. I kill every sentinel, and what happens? they respawn. All of them. Instantly. I did this six or seven times until i started to get frustrated and looked it up. Ive tried restarting, multiplayer and singleplayer, getting them to deaggro, everything i could think of. has anybody had this issue? if so, can you help me?

What a difference 5 years makes [Discussion]
So after playing, enjoying but ultimately getting bored of NMS back in the old days I fired it up again for the first time this weekend and wow. Last time I played (my previous save was from 2017) it was land on planet, collect resources, go to empty space station, warp, rinse, repeat. Not to say it wasn’t fun but it was undeniably limited.
This time I found myself doing those things but arriving at space stations full of life, going to pirate stations, taking on missions, building the rudiments of a base which became instantly useful even if just as a place to process my minerals and overall just having an absolute blast.
It feels like the game that was promised way back when, and I am so glad I took the opportunity to fire it up. Next step is to try out the VR.
New pilot stuck on the Awakenings mission [Bug]
After I built the hyperdrive, I'm taken to a Mustafar looking planet where I've made multiple landings trying to follow the mission marker.
Each time, the mission analysis view thingy points directly into the mountain so I dig until I can't dig anymore and then the marker moves and I hop back in my ship and park down in a valley then jetpack up and dig some more and then I cant dig all the way through the mountain and then the marker moves again.
What is going on and how do I complete this mission??

Can you recruit more than one of a single type of ship into your squadron? [Question]
I would very much like to recruit the same type of ships into my squadron to give it a uniform militaristic feel, but I can’t seem to recruit the same type of ship more than once. Is this intentional, and has anyone found a plausible workaround to avoid this?
interesting Glitch [Bug]
Unsure if it's been spoken about much, but I realized you can sell stuff from your ships cargo hold at any space station, whether it's to the trade terminal or other vendor/pilots. You'll receive the payment (units or nanites) but keep the item, allowing you to infinitely resell it.
I'm on PS5, unsure if that's a factor. But worth a test on some low-risk item if you're in need and curious.

Returning Day One Player [Bug]
So, I've come back, and on a new console! Don't think my Playstation can handle this game anymore anyways, but a new console meant starting a new save :/
But, I was excited to start playing again from the ground up. A little hung up on my lack of units and how I'd now acquire them seeing as the last time I truly played was before the Living Ship stuff came out. I can't even tell you how long before, but the anomaly station hub was basically new to the game.
Anyways, so there I am, Initializing on a new planet near my busted ass ship. Normal mode...dont wanna get destroyed too quickly, and get my feel for the game again. I end up on a quest, and essentially end up landing near a cave to begin the base building part of the main story, and hell yeah, this spot has three huge surface albumen pearl groves that'll just feed me units while I get on my feet. I end up tossing those into the cargo slot of my ship to save space, keep doing my thing for a while before I am forced to sell due to lack of space. I get to the space station, and start selling the non essentials that I know I won't need for a while, and save the things I will. At this point, I don't even have storage units, so, again, that forced my hand. Then, I go to sell the albumen pearls, close the window, and go back to base to gather more albumen pearls to start my rotation of base and terminal stuff (even though I know I can just farm to get the harvest recipes elsewhere, I'm taking the traditional route). Lo and behold, I still have a full cargo in my ship. Hmm...thats strange...maybe I just had some I didn't know about in my personal cargo and didn't notice. Do my thing for a while and go to sell again before I build a storage unit. I go to sell those albumen pearls first. And I keep selling them. And keep selling them. The price drops, sure, but its still hefty. I've got an extra fun bit to this that actually helped get to a...

Could flight mechanics be improved in a future update? [Question]
I love this game, even if flight mechanics are essentially nonexistent. I enjoy role-playing my travellers but every time I get in my ship it feels way to arcade like. Our starships can't even crash into the ground, you just bounce around and take no damage. Shooting baddies can often feel like a chore. I 'm curious if such an update would even be possible.
I don't want to put this game down at all because I enjoy it, but one of the core function of the game feels incomplete. Is there any hope for starship flight mechanics e.g. Elite Dangerous?
If we could fly with "realistic" flight mechanics and also fly our freighters... I don't think I'd play another game again lol

Thoughts on the state of the game [Discussion]
This game is honestly very frustrating now. The sentinels have way to much health, and gets in the way of missions, specifically A Trace of Metal. Pirate attacks also are really annoying. All of this gets in the way of what i think this game is about, exploration and carving your own place in the galaxy. Sentinels did not used to be this aggressive, especially on my relatively peaceful planet.

I played No Mans Sky form the start and enjoyed the recent patches but have not touched the game for a year. I have a ncie bace now and pretty much finished the main game but with all these new changes is it worth starting a new game? I think there has been like 3 or 4 major patches since I played.
I feel if I continue with my main game I migt be confused but by starting a new game these new things cna be introduced slowly..

Outlaws expedition won't let you build a base until the final phase [Information]
Anyone new to the expedition, fret not (and fret a lot, your call), the base computer will be unlocked in Phase 5. I completed the new expedition and was initially frustrated with the lack of base computer blueprints, but you can still save and use your freighter as a mobile base, of sorts (even though I like stocking up on materials to make stasis devices or fusion ignitors). It's not a huge deal, though I'd like to know where to find Alpha Vector ships in the galaxy in which we were placed or even the one we warped to in the expedition.
Pirate SpaceStation Ship Appearance Swap Bug [Bug]
So When you deconstruct a Ship your "first" Ship always appears and it is set as your active Ship. Mine is my Hauler, but I had a Solar ship parked in there. I bought an exotic I saw and then deconstructed it and immediately turned around and entered my Solar ship, which caused it to somehow swap the entire loadout of my Hauler (including its name) with the Solar ship, and the Hauler disappeared but the exotic I deconstructed was still there. Basically it's my Hauler but it looks like my Solar ship now, and my Solar ship is gone with all ita inventory. A Solar ship with all my stats from my Hauler.. I apologize for the long explanation, it's really weird.
How common are Infested Paradise planets ? [Discussion]
I just found one and i dont think ive seen others post about it or even friends talk about them
I just found a way to get infinite money....? [Question]
I bought the game back in 2016. And it has obviously evolved alot since then. So everything is new to me.
Well. I juat ruined it all for myself by selling an Vykeen effigy to a Vykeen Trader....again...and again...and again.....always gaining more units. But never losing the effigy..
This can't be a part of the game can it? Because i juar went from 50000 units to 50.000
Can’t find living ship upgrades [Question]
Hi all, I’ve been pulsing around like crazy, trying red systems, abandoned systems, etc and I can’t seem to run into a single living ship upgrade. For a while I had some leftover pieces from the living ship mission in storage but I’ve since given all of those to another player and even destroyed my remaining liquid sun, but still haven’t run into any upgrades. Is my living ship bugged???

Companions [Question]
This almost definitely has been answered before but after a bunch of searching I can't find a clear answer. I've had the game since 2016 but only just getting back into it. Lot of catching up to do.
With adopting creatures from worlds. Can you edit the adopted creatures at all? Beyond adding accessories to them. I have a sweet tiger from a rainy world that kills everything. I want to edit the colour of the original animal.
Or is all of this done by breeding and splicing.

Derelict Freighters [Discussion]
Came across my first one today and it did not pass the vibe check, so I chickened out. I'm not into horror or suspense. Plus I was not prepared for any battles. Any tips for dealing with those later in the future?
What I believe the next update should focus on [Discussion]
After thinking about what I would like to see in NSM I believe we need a overhaul on freighters.
—————————————————————————————
(Freighter battles)
Warping to a system to defend a freight is cool and all but I feel like there's more potential to them. Rn all we do is kill around 6, ships and the captain hands over the freighter, that's not that exciting. I would hope they would add more guns to the freighters that actually deal some damage.
The captain trust you instantly but tbh I feel like doing more work for the guy would be alot better. Maybe he sends you out for specific resources to fix the damage the freighter took in battle. Or makes you hunt the pirates that attack him so you earn his trust before handing over his own ship.
The captain could say, "I traced the pirates warp and found where they are coming from can you go there and defeat the captain" you go there and find the captain's freighter and you take it out. Just things like that would add personality to these characters.
—————————————————————————————
(Targeted freighter)
A freighter is supposed to be a space base, a place where you store your items, a place where you can send frigates you own on missions. It should be the most targeted thing in the system your in. Not the ground base you're built.
Your freighter is your base in pace, pirates should attack it once in a while. Your warp your freighter in and now there's a higher chance for pirate attacks, if your don't defend your freighter you lose some material you stored in it and now you gotta repair it.
—————————————————————————————
(Enemy's freighters)
Now that pirates got more expanded on, they own there own station. I believe...
im bored , but im the reason. [Discussion]

Trade station attack [Screenshot Contest / April 2022]
Why are the base-building mechanics so insufferable? [Question]
The tile will attach itself to literally anything above, below, or beside the space where I need the damn thing to go. Is base building horrible for others too, and does HG know how bad it is?
Here's some of the FAQ suggestions we received in our previous FAQ thread. Keep in mind that these are opinions from some of our valued OP's and you may agree or disagree with some of these. We just ask that everyone remains respectful when replying to this thread and we look forward to your contribution! NMSTG Mod Team
You can also drop a quick tip!
Tip #1: Always try to be doing multiple things. Pick up the portable refiner so you can refine something from your inventory while exploring and mining.
Tip #2: Avoid multiplayer until unlocking the anomaly, can be stranded if not.
Tip #3: Exotic worlds only have 1 fauna so it's easy to scan all of them.
Tip #4: Need glyphs? All 16 are on one planet here
Q- "I was on the Anomaly and a bunch of expensive stuff showed up in my inventory. What do I do with it? A:" Congrats! Another player has bestowed you with a gift. Most likely it is an item to sell for some quick and easy cash. Usually the item description will tell you what it is used for.
Q: "Help, I claimed a broken ship and now I can't find my starter ship! Is it gone forever?" A:" If you merely selected to "claim" the broken ship and not "swap" it, then your old ship is still around. If you left it with launch fuel in the tank, you can summon it with the quick-menu. If it does not have fuel, it can be summoned on the Anomaly (once you unlock it), your freighter (once you acquire one).
Q- "Are crashed ships worth repairing?" A-" Unless it is an exotic, no. Scrap the ship at the space station, sell the items it gives you, and use those units...
Cannot Trigger "Under a rebel star" during expedition. [Question]
Is this an expedition thing? I've completed the expedition and want this to be main save now but I cannot get mission to trigger.
Anyone else think it'd be cool to have a companion app to manage your freighter missions? [Suggestion]
Given that the management process is relatively quick, I think it'd fit nicely as an app you could use to access it so that you wouldn't have to be at your PC/console just to debrief and set up new missions. Plus, it'd be fun to scroll through a mission event log while you have some free time elsewhere. Idk just a thought that I had.
Expedition 6: base computers? [Question]
I've just gotten far enough into expedition 6 to want to build a base. But the is no base computer in my building list, I don't see base computer plans available at the anomaly, and I don't see blueprints for the base computer as any of my expedition rewards. Is base building supposed to be locked out of this expedition?
Can I still co op after modding my saves? [Question]
I am modding heavily on my NMS I am just wondering if I can still co-op. I also don't want to start from scratch just because I can't invite someone in my modded world. Its a mix of nexus mod + save game editor.
Found a massive bug… [Bug]
Surely this is not intentional.. when I arrived at the first space station and went to sell my stuff on the galactic trade network I noticed that stuff inside my cargo would not disappear when it sold allowing me to infinitely sell items.
I racked up 50 million units in a matter of 10 min. I noticed on my second ship that cargo is also bugged. Which leads me to believe every ships cargo is bugged.
My squadron is a mix of 2 fighters, a hauler and explorer. All s rank and have as an average 2 excellent bonuses. They rarely ever shoot ships and when they do its below negligible dmg. Unless I'm missing something, these guys are only lucky they dont charge me units like the elite dangerous ai's do, or I'd have em skinned alive. I sat there and attacked the lowest pirate lvl I could find, lowered their shields and it took them a minute and a half to even do a third ish of his health, estimation bc I feel like I did more dmg to them without mods than half of the squadron did together. Had to keep healing bc I was basicslly tanking dmg to see if they could handle one pirate and nope! Can't even take one down, non modded photon cannons on ship takes me idk ten seconds of fire ish.
Unless I'm missing something, again, this is probably the second worst combat ai I've ever seen in this game, second to pets which don't attack anything but normal animals which you can handle with a damn mining beam if you wanted to. Can't kill drones, alien horrors or other stuff either. Pets are barely handy as a way to move maybe running speed without using air ( bc they use up your air when THEY run... genius design sean). Not really about pets but they seriously need upgrades because jfc.
I know being negative about the update could get me nuked bc "how dare you insult anything" in this decade, but it needs work. If I'm not missing some godly set of stats to be choosing, the pilots I have are worth less than my patience having them around as more than a pretty, obnoxiously noisy decoration.

Outlaw hood.. [Question]
Hi, sorry yuck question if I may. I’ve yet to finish the outlaw/pirate story and wondering how long a story it is..? Also, I’ve read that’s how you get the hood armour customisation. My main question is, if I get it, can I then use it on a new game character or do I have to earn it again? Cheers all

Overlapped Freighter Base with Default Freighter Base (need help) [Bug]
I have not logged in for a few updates, but I have logged in to my main save for the most recent update. Upon entering my freighter, it appears that my old base is overlapped with the default base. At first I thought it had been completely deleted, however upon placing/removing both the default base (the one that comes with the freighter) and my original constructed base, it appears that both exist on one tile at a time and both are editable. Both exist completely on top of each other. My original base is still there, as I can see its outline when the walls become transparent when a new piece is placed.
I have attempted to fix this by removing/adding tiles, which only results in my character becoming trapped in un-editable overlapped tiles. I have also tried purchasing a new freighter to see if the base transfer would restore my original base, and have lost my S-Class in this process. None of what I have already tried has done anything, and the glitchy overlapped mess seems to still be maintained. If anyone has any kind of suggestion for a resolution I would greatly appreciate it, or any solution if this has happened before. I was not able to find any posts about this glitch, making this one out of semi-desperation.
In advance I apologize for the paragraphs, and thank you for any help.
The Quanrusean Empire… [Information]
How do you recover from losing the perfect Spot for a Base, due to your own overconfidence? [Question]
A couple weeks, maybe even a few months ago, around the time Settlements were added, i found a very nice Base spot, 2 floating platforms above a Trading Post on a Paradise Planet, with NPC ships flying between the two platforms from time to time to land on the Tradepost.
At that time i thought that you couldn't have two Bases on the same Planet, so went off to my old base, not bothering to mark the place, since "Oh there's a Tradepost here, i can just Scan for it and find it again". So i go off, deconstructing my base and once i was done, went back in the direction i came.
I flew for a few minutes and activated the scanner, and found a Tradepost. Problem was it wasn't the right one. So i started panicking and just flew all over the place, trying to find the right Tradepost. But to no avail.
It got to the point where i just didn't enjoy playing the game anymore and i stopped. And after the time that passed and all the new things that have been added with the new updates, i thought i could forget about it and enjoy the game again. And it worked for bit.
I started a new save and did my usual tradition of avoiding the Tutorial for abit. But once i reached the Base Building Part the memories came back and I'm starting to lose interest again.
So i guess what i'm asking for is if there's ways i can distract myself from that loss, while still enjoying the Game?

Has anybody else experienced this? [Question]
Hey guys, merry Easter (if you celebrate it).
Was just wondering if you have experienced the same thing after the new Blight expedition was released. My game, which was going smooth before, got really laggy, averaging at something like 24 FPS. This cannot be due to the hardware I'm using (or can it?) - playing on RTX2060 and Ryzen 5 3500. Anyways, if anybody else has experienced this, I would really love to hear it, and if you have some possible remedies that have worked for you - would be great to hear as well.
I'm locked in Expedition 6 - Step 1 [Question]
Hello fellow travelers, I'm afraid I can't progress the expedition as I picked up a freighter that needs a Warp Hypercore so I can fix a component and travel with it. The problem is I need a Storm Crystal and they are located on extreme weather planets...whiwh are in Green/Red/Blue Systems that I can't access yet...because I need Storm Crystals for Warp Hypercores. I feel trapped in a loop. Is there alternatives or should I just start over?
This is a follow up of my last post so I’ll keep it short.
If you haven’t received the pirate map 1 because of a game bug comment or DM with the issue.
I will provide you with a replacement so you can finish the expedition
Overlapped Freighter Base (need help) [Question]
Simply put, an outdated save of my freighter base is completely overlapped with the save of my current freighter base. The tiles of each save are completely overlapped and cannot be edited without having to delete both tiles first. When placing tiles, the outline of my old base is visible, which is why I am sure it still exists. Additionally, if only one room segment is deleted on a tile, the tile that is a part of the other save remains until it is also deleted.
Is there any way to recover my current freighter base and separate the outdated version from my game without having to completely reset the freighter base at the terminal?
Are "expeditions" new content once finished won't come back? [Question]

Challenge run idea... [Discussion]
So I've been seeing a couple creators I follow doing the no starter ship challenge where you must repair a crashed ship to leave the planet and skip the starter ship. I had the idea to go in the opposite direction.
With the ways we now have to upgrade the class and slot count of ships and multitools, I propose the class lock challenge. This challenge has a few rules that I'll list below along with a hard mode variant rule.
you may only buy new ships and multitools that are at or below the grade of your highest grade ship or multitool.. You may not install upgrade modules of a higher grade than your ship/multitool. Your suit counts as the lowest class between your primary ship and primary multitool. (example: class A ship and class B multitool would mean class B suit upgrades max)
End conditions: upgrade your primary ship and multitool to S rank. reach the galactic core complete the Atlas Path.
Variants and optional additions: You must upgrade your starter multitool and ship before you can buy or upgrade anything else. Hyperdrive upgrades for star types can only be installed at or above their linked ranks. Copper/no upgrade = C Cadmium drive = B Emeril drive = A Indium drive = S
I'm thinking of trying this challenge but would be interested to hear if anyone has suggestions, or just thinks it's a horrible idea and would never work due to the grind.
Changing name of planets. [Suggestion]
Now story. I found one beautiful paradise planet of Autumn colors and took it as my main base.
Named the planet Autumn Blaze.
A year after there was that update which changed a lot, added new planets and changed ones present.
My Autumn Blaze changed radically in to pink and lavender mushroom glow of madness with bubbles and all. Don't get me wrong it is beautiful and I will dare say more interesting than how it looked previously. I still keep it as my main base. You must see it during night when some of pink changes in to blue and everything stars glowing. It is mesmerizing.
It is just that the name of the planet is not appropriate any more, it is not Autumn Blaze.
More appropriate would be Pinkies Dream. (Yes that Pinkie form MLP so you know how that planet went in to the deep pink end).
Now would be nice if developers would allow to change the names of already named planets, at least to the player whom named them first.
So of I am the name giver only I have the right to change that name.
Kuz my Autumn Blaze is not any more, now it is Pinkies Dream but I can't...

Glyph portal location ..? [Question]
Hi, anyone know an easy way to find a glyph portal? I did have a teleporter at one but it’s been a while since I played and it must have gotten weirded up in an update at some point cause it ain’t there now! Cheers
Didn't know you could crash your freighter into a station (just joking, it certainly looks like it though) [Screenshot]

Prevent camera zoom-in when firing? [Question]
Hello everyone,
I'm back after not playing since 2017 and I've been bothered by the camera zooming in whenever I fire my gun/mining laser on foot.
Is it possible to disable this?
If there's an option, how did they name it?
Else, is there a mod for that? Is that what they call aerial zoom?
Thank you!
Is it fun anymore? [Suggestion]
With the latest update I'm coming to hate it. What was once a nice relaxing game where with the right upgrades you could feel like a god amongst the stars. It seems that time is gone as now unless you can move fast enough while precision shooting or do sharp turns in a ship with precision shooting then you are going to be able to heal yourself or repair you ship on the run. The reason for this is that your shield returns much, much slower now while enemy ships have ship plus faster shield regan. The sentinel latest machine will easily rip your shielding away.
Another new feature are no hostile ships attacking you while you roam a planet and they can easily kill you if they catch you off guard.
As a guy who can only use one hand, this was my relaxing game to play but I feel that "Hello Games" has taken away that relaxing feel from this game.
What is everyone's thoughts on the update? What would you recommend to someone who cannot move and shoot at the same time?
PC version is giving me xbox inputs on a Dualshock 4 [Question]

Living ship upgrades [Question]
As title, is there a “best” system to fly around in where these spawn? And is there any other way to get upgrades than pulsing around for a bit?
Cannot for the life of me find a storm crystal. [Question]
I'm playing the new expedition and am at a point that I need a storm crystal. I've travelled to several planets with activated elements, waited for a storm (it indicated extreme storm above my hazard protection bar). It even gave me the hint popup that rare materials could be found. Despite all that I have been looking around with my visor and haven't found a single crystal. Am I missing something? Was it a wrong storm type? Do I lack an upgrade? I've been stuck like this for a while now :/

No base computer in expedition? (PS5) [Question]
I've started the expedition today, got the ship, got the freighter, warped at least 10+ times and I still don't have base computer or any of the base building stuff (walls, teleporter etc.) that i've purchased.
Is this supposed to be this way? :/
landing bug? [Bug]
ok so every time you kill some sentinels hop in your ship then interceptors follow for some reason you cannot land. In the new expedition i was trying to raid a manufacturing facility and i had no multitool weapon to destroy the reinforced door so i did it in my ship then since the interceptors came i could not land so i flew into space summoned the anomaly and lost the sentinel interceptors and i could not find the manufacturing facility
Does anyone know how I can activate this? It looks valuable and I can’t find anything on the wiki. [Question]
