I need a ride [Question]

Rendezvous 4 is bugging out on the galaxy map so can't get there. No telling when hello games will get my ticket or even fix it so if anyone would be able to give me a lift there I would be greatly appreciative.

#

anyone else feel the same? [Discussion]

I love the expeditions in this game, I think they're fun. Just got done with the blighted one. The one thing I can't stand is when I get sent to a specific location just to find someone put a fucking base there and now I can't do what I'm supposed to so now I have to look for a new setting.

Little Things That Would Improve QoL - Revisited [Suggestion]

  • Being able to remove the base photon cannon from a ship. (being able to remove everything if you wanted to, really)

  • Being able to remove the mining laser from a multi-tool.

  • Being able to name your saves.

  • Being able to re-color all pets.

  • Being able to re-color your Sentinel upgraded Minotaur. Or at least have the new blue parts follow the color scheme of the Minotaur underneath.

  • Being able to press a single button and having a refined product sent back to the input bin to refine again rather than needing to manually drag it.

  • Being able to turn off the personal refiner "refining" noise.

  • Being able to milk/harvest or ride a pet/fauna with a single button instead of needing to navigate a menu. You could do this before the Pet update and it made interacting with fed fauna less cumbersome than it is now.

  • Being able to properly upgrade the inventory of a Living Ship instead of relying on a freighter upgrade exploit unknown to most players which also is unavailable once you max out your freighter's inventory.

  • Being able to upgrade the class of a Capitol Freighter at the freighter bridge console.

  • Lowering the frequency of asteroids.

  • Widening the space station landing pad area so ship wings don't clip into the station walls.

  • Adding East and West to the compass.

  • Being able to fire your multitool while riding fauna/pets. (this actually existed in a form in the VR version prior to the Pet update which unfortunately changed firing your multitool into an auto-eject)

  • Being able to see the names other players gave their ships.

  • Better multitool swapping.

  • Having PvP turned off by default.

  • Adding Comm ball visibility options. "ALL OFF!"

  • Adding Inventory sort options.

  • Adding a turbo boost button for exocraft in VR for those using true VR controls.

  • Letting VR players...

Who were Apollo's "people"? [Question]

Apollo speaks a unique language at a certain point in the game and tells us about his past and his people (briefly). What confuses me is that this species is never brought up again and never explained either. Did the Atlas simply erase them from existence?

Stuck in dialogue loop in "Patterns in Time" quest [Bug]

Heyo! So my gf is doing the Patterns in Time quest, and she seems to be getting stuck in a weird dialogue loop bug when talking to the Korvax Cartographer for the quest. She talks to them, chooses a dialogue option when given, it pauses and stares at the Korvax for a moment, and then the entire dialogue chain restarts as if she just walked up to them again.

Anyone know what she can do to fix this?

To The Guy Handing Out AI Valves In the Anomaly Tonight… [Information]

…I was finally able to buy the ship I’ve been after all week, so thank you! Not only that, I’m still sitting on over 3/4’s of a BILLION credits!

Also, sorry I got momentarily annoyed at the fact my inventory was suddenly full so I couldn’t purchase the upgrade I’d been grinding nanites for!

Multiplayer in Egypt [Question]

My friend and I decided to buy the game 2 days ago so we can play together. However, for some dumbass reason, the Egyptian government has decided we cannot join public/ private lobbies in certain games (like NMS and GTA) without the use of a VPN; AND GUESS WHAT, VPN is ALSO banned in Egypt. I just want to know there is any alternative options I could go for, the game is really good, but still gets kinda boring playing it all alone, especially when we bought it specifically for the online mode. Keep in mind that I used stunnel and installed Cloudflare WARP (basically bypassed the Egyptian government's shitty protocol) to be able to connect to a VPN, and still nothing happened; all it gives me is either there is no response at all from trying to join a lobby, or actually responds saying "Joining Lobby" and "Connecting" to just do absolutely nothing. Any help? Thanks in advance.

Stupid question [Question]

So, I’ve played a couple years and just never cared about different galaxies etc, just kinda…roamed aimlessly.

But now, my thirst has changed, I want to get to the center of the galaxy I’m in now and then do the same in others, and also visit some of the player “settlements.”

But what is my best way of doing this in the most efficient manner? If I’m correct, black holes essentially spit you out somewhere random? Should I just follow the galaxy map? What alerts you that you’re at the center?

How do YOU travel, for what purpose do you travel, etc etc. Just curious in what you guys do.

Also, another stupid question. To be able to “bump into” a random player or come across their base, do I have to be in multiplayer mode? Or just my single player play-through?

Thanks fellow travelers. Never cared about doing these things. Now all of the sudden I really want to lol

Any tips for when primary missions are locking you out? [Question]

I feel like I’ve been getting locked out of missions the last few days after a really long run not having any issues. I’m stuck on what seems to be the overseer’s final mission and it won’t clear, the Artemis story is locked cause I need to visit a weapon vendor and the system it’s in is an outlaw system so I can’t progress, and my base archive mission just suddenly decided to go to my second base I haven’t visited in months rather than the one I’ve done everything through for it. Just feels like a frustrating bad stretch given how deep a dive I’ve found myself in after completing the expedition and going back to my main save over the last two weeks or so. I don’t want to start over again, but it feels like I just got walled in. Any suggestions?

Is Quad Pet Able to Lay Eggs? [Question]

Was wondering if the Quad Pet from the Previous expedition was able to lay eggs. And if it does is any one willing to give me one because I wasn't able to finish the expedition due to school, therefore not being able to get it.

Base building help [Question]

Been playing for a while but haven’t played for a while. I noticed that the old base building parts are now legacy. So I’m wondering, with the new building parts do I still need to place down foundations to stop the ground reclaiming the area I use to build on.

Question about visitiother travellers’ bases [Question]

Does the starship scanner do anything when flying within the atmosphere of a planet? [Question]

I swear in the early game I was able to scan for resources/buildings, etc... while flying just above the ground within a planets atmosphere. But now when I use the scanner from the air on a planet literally nothing happens. No points of interest appear and no marked resource deposits or anything of the sort.

Does the Starship scanner only do anything from space and I just imagined using it in the atmosphere?

GHOSTS IN THE MACHINE bug? [Bug]

I am on the main quest saying "Visit a multitool technology trader in a Vy'keen system", however, the one they have tagged is an outlaw station which doesnt have a trader, just a terminal.

I tried going to another vy'keen system, talking with the MT trader, but nothing happens. Its says I need to check the galaxy map on where to go.

Uhhhhh. Any fixes?

Help! Expedition 6 Phase 4 Treasure Hunt Milestone Bugged [Bug]

I was making the final push to complete Expedition 6 when I got to the milestone "Treasure Hunt" I went through the portal, found the treasure. but found I didn't have enough inventory space to hold all the goodies. so I decided to reload my last save so I could make space, that's where my problems began. all the locked milestones became unlocked and my quest was telling me to go back to rendezvous 5. which I did though a friend's help. and now it tells me to go to a planet to dig up the treasure, but as I'm pulsing there it'll switch it to the planet behind me. then switch back. I've verified my game files, relaunched the game, gone to the marker should of pointed after it disappeared. nothing's working, Please if you have anything I can try please tell me, I'm desperate at this point

Does anyone know why no ships are spawning in space stations? [Question]

Does anyone have suggestions? Nothing I've been trying has work in talking to npcs, I've tried my capitol ship(Nothing spawns there ether),I've reloaded the game and my pc like 3 times now and nothing has worked.

Ways of generating solid passive income? [Question]

Figured I should make this its own thread to expand the potential breadth of answers. What's some decent ways of generating some passive income? I heard about AI farming, but I'm not sure how reliable that still is.

To clarify, I primarily plan on using the money to farm storage augmentations via first wave exotics. So I don't need an ungodly amount of money, and I don't really plan on managing a huge farm or anything. A small scale mining operation would be fine I think? Just not sure how to set one up since all the guides I've found were for very large scale operations. A million or two every few hours beyond just running my frigate expeditions would likely be sufficient for my purposes.

Is there a portal address for every galaxy in NMS that's been shared somewhere? I've checked the portal repository and there's only a few listed for PS4.

can someone compare the ps5 version to the ps4 on ps5 in VR? [Question]

Looking for opinions and testimonials.

So im about 50 hours in and utterly obsessed with this game. To the point im fighting the impulse to spend 350 on a psvr headset so I can just lose all grasp of reality.

Can anyone compare the graphics, etc to the ps5 version. I have a 4k tv but idk the actual quality of it. Do you have to do the flick movement or are you in total control?

I'm considering waiting till the vr2 comes out in hopes they make it compatible but God damn when I see videos of the game in vr my brain melts down.

Having trouble finding a certain ship in a syste. [Question]

I loaded into a system, and had one of those freighter battles. So anyways, I saw a beautiful ship. I flew up close to it and even got a look up close in photo mode.

I've been searching (and exploring) for 2 hours, and still can't find it. I've looked in the space station (I also reloaded on it), I've looked at trade outpost (I reloaded in this too). I've also been looking at crashed ships.

What do I do?

Is there a Minotaur Boost Module upgrade? [Question]

There's generic Exocraft Boost Module upgrades that can be purchased from the exocraft tech merchant. They come in C, B, A and S classes.

These can be used on all exocraft except the Minotaur and Nautilon - which have their own specific upgrade modules. So all Exocraft have a boost mode - except the Nautilon (which really needs one).

I've seen Minotaur upgrades for engine, laser, and cannon, but no boost. My question is, are they just rare and hard to find, or do they not exist?

If they don't, it would be the only Exocraft that has an existing feature that can't be upgraded.

Please tell me I'm wrong. Because if they're out there, I'll happily jump to as many space stations as I need to to get one.

AI unit farm (9m/h per layer, planned 30 layers for 270m/h total profit) [Activated Indium, 9m/h per layer (30 Layers planned, so 270m/h)]

My second try of a efficient unit farm. No mechanic-abusing. I could probably get a few more units by getting them closer together, but those few millions don't bother me. Any tipps for optimization, without glitches / mechanic-abusing?

Suit secondary color bug? (looking for help) [Bug]

So I put every color pink just to show. On the left is the Anomaly race, sleek suit. On the right is the Traveler race, same exact suit, but the secondary color, for like half of it, is locked cyan, only for this race. I recently saw another player in the Anomaly with their Traveler wearing a Sleek torso, too, with a different color than cyan, so I know it's not working right. Any ideas on how to fix? Any cache I need to clear? It's been bugging me so much lately lol. Only happens on the Sleek suit on the Traveler race, which is a shame cuz it's my favorite suit out of the limited options this game gives you, and I like using the Selene head.

Any way to "share" base teleports? [Question]

Heyo! So I've recently seen my gf's base on my teleport list even when we're not playing together. Is there a way to make it so we can see and go to each other's various bases?

I wanna make gas and mining bases here and there to farm stuff, but is there a way to make sure she can access them too? I'm not exactly sure how all this stuff tends to work.

Thanks!

Build Mode on PS4 [Question]

I was trying to make a REALLY nice base for the first time. I've had mini bases through the years, but I found a really nice planet & was gonna go for broke on this one.

Is it just me, or is it SUPER frustrating to build now!? I keep trying the clip/grid mode most the time. The pre-fab rooms are easier than just placing floors and walls!! Building anything two story is ridiculous because aiming and trying to put down pieces has the part going everywhere BUT the intended placement. Not even putting the cursor on the spot seems to work. I wish the placement could be just as easy like Minecraft building :/

Anyone else having a hard time on PS4 building-wise??

How do I return to a previously visited nexus mission system that’s in a different galaxy… [Question]

I joined a nexus mission with someone. Warped to their location. Completed the mission. Went back to my log to name the system, as I always do. I noticed I couldn’t mark its location like I do for previous systems. Soon realized it’s because system is in another galaxy. Exited the anomaly and I was warped back to my boring Euclid system.

Essentially. How do you go back to systems in different galaxies if you never went to the space station or built a base.

Why i don't get first Freighterbattle? [Question]

I've been playing NMS since Next and yes, everything wasn't always error-free. My head Savegame is so far that I've done most of it. So I started a new Savegame. At the Beginning everything was normal and i had nothing to claim. But then i came across the Anomaly. Everything works there too. I know it so that if you get the Anomaly in the next System the free Freighter Battle comes. But no! Freighter Battle dosn't come.

First I asked streamers and players of NMS on Twitch. There were assumptions about 3 hours of playtime and 5 warps, but I only knew that before after the free freighter. I thought what the heck. let's try. Meanwhile I have over 15 warps and sorry no f** freighter.

I thought this can't be the case and had the game files checked. No mistakes. NMS deleted and completely freshly installed. what did it bring? Nothing!

I play completely without mods or tools.

What else can I do. a restart is out of the question because i've already made some progress with follow-up quests. I've got quite a few units and nanites. Ok not enough for a big freighter but enough to live on.

What can I do?

We should be able to apply filters to our gameplay [Suggestion]

They work so well in photo mode, why can't we apply them to the regular game? You could either make it look more realistic or improve the Sci-Fi vibe even further...

They could call it something like "Visor override". All of the filters already exist, so why don't build on that? I would love it.

Permadeath Run From Hell - I am Immortal! [Discussion]

I posted earlier in the week about the Permadeath run I was doing where I ignored my starter ship and just walked to a distressed 14 hours away.

By the time I got 5 hours away from it ( 18 hours game time ) I had enough units to buy a ship at a trading post .

Bought a fighter , went to the distressed ship which was a B Class hauler … $$$ kerchinggg

Set up a base did the early lessons and headed to the center of the galaxy luckily I found a glyph on my travels so was able to use a portal to get 5000 ly away.

A few jumps later I emerged in a new galaxy… immortal!

Unfortunately , I now am on another walk to find some hermetic seals to fix my ship as I never learned to make them…

Although the early game was hell I can highly recommend this

Okay I got a theory.. Strap in… [Discussion]

Okay we all like crystal weapons right?? I’m not a big fan of alien ones but I know many of you are and I have a theory on them too. So almost all planets have mineral crystals right?? First off, I’m willing to bet with all of the “go to this planet, save and reload and go back to the ss” type of things that there must be a crystal gun of some sort that is obtainable from almost every planet and it would be the color of said mineral crystal. If there is more than 1 color, well we’ve seen 2 tone single crystals in rifles/pistols and don’t get me started on the fruit loop colored alien ones… anyways, back to the “save and reload” thing. So, and I could be wrong so correct me if I am, say you go to a planet and to the building with the weapons cabinet (forgot the name lol) and do the save/reload to see the other “variant” for lack of a better word, which 9/10 a more powerful, higher class MT. But wait. Instead of s/r right there.. why not go one planet over, s/r and go back.. would it be different like with what happens at the ss?? If that’s true that… a LOT of possible MTs. I bring the crystals up because then say if you wanted a green or a blue or yellow or WHATEVER color, the possibility of finding one could be what mineral crystal is most abundant on that planet, making finding a crystal MT with the color you want more possible (yet still unlikely, but who knows??)

Onto the alien MTs. I don’t really know much of the lore behind them, but based on what I just said, I feel it could be possible not only with crystal colors but maybe the probability of finding one would be if more if not all the planets were near destroyed or something of that nature, and it had a Conflict 3 rank, indicating that there was a multi planet battle/solar system invasion and said MTs were created from the planet and crystals alone into a weapon to defend with, i.e. going...

Looking for advice [Question]

My fiancée and I played a ton of NMS back in 2018. At some point, we just stopped but I want to jump back in. Needless to say, I am lost but I don’t want to lose the save file with some of my stuff (bunch of a class ships and an A class freighter).

Does anyone have any guidance on how to best reacclimate myself or should I just start a new save until I figure out what’s what?

Expedition Rendezvous points not showing up [Question]

I'm currently doing The Blighted expedition and my rendezvous points keep not showing up even if the milestone is selected. I get the icon on the galaxy map and then warp to that system but then I'm unable to find it once there :(

It happened with Rendezvous 2 which magically appeared after a few days but now I'm stuck with finding Rendezvous 3. I tried doing other milestones and then going back to it but no luck.

Does anyone have an idea if there's an easy way to fix this?

The Wanderer's Path 6 [Fan Work - tale]

CHAPTER 6 - Unanswered questions

I'm having that dream again. That... nightmare, actually. I see Compostellar bleeding, the Atlas bleeding. The red planet communicates with me, asks me for help. But I can't do anything. I, immobilized on the ground, can only watch life fade away. I see the glow disappearing little by little in the eyes of every living thing on this planet. The gek I spoke to just a few cycles ago raise their arms to the sky, imploring forgiveness. Some of them cry crimson tears that slide down their faces in strange patterns. Others shout something in a language I do not understand. Dozens of winged creatures fly above our heads circling around a red sphere. Everything is red in Compostellar. Who am I kidding? Everything is red in the domains of the Atlas. Suddenly, a beam of light descends from the depths of space. The red disappears. Everything turns white. I think I'm dead.

But I'm not. I'm just awake again.

It's morning. In fact, I'd say it's been dawn for several hours. I've slept too much due to exhaustion. Or maybe it was meant to be. Maybe everything is written. Maybe we are nothing more than the imagination of a machine that refuses to die.

I eat a little and decide to get going.


I have found other downed ships, although these pilots did not meet the same fate as the gek of a few cycles ago. Little more than rot and bones is what I have found on the controls. I hope my little friend is safe. I struggle not to give in to my impulses and turn away. It would be so easy to escape this planet if I helped the gek fix his shuttle. But what would that make me? A coward? A heretic? A hero? I don't know. Maybe I don't even have a choice. Sometimes I feel as if my body is moving of its own volition, stepping forward without giving it any commands....

HG should allow/facilitate selling of ships between players with a “Ships for sale” board in the Anomaly [Suggestion]

Seems like you could make shiphunting more interesting/rewarding if you allowed players to find and sell ships. Maybe have a board in the Anomaly where players could post the ships they want to sell, and other players could use the Compare feature to browse ships for sale and buy them from other players.

Add an option to search by the type of ship you want - solar, explorer, etc - and maybe even specific parts attributes, and see what people have. I put a lot of effort into finding ships, upgrading them, and such. If I decide to add a different ship to my roster, I’d much rather the old one go to a good home. Especially if the only other option is scrap.

#

Someone warped into the same system as me [Discussion]

I was just chilling, managing my inventory when it said someone else entered the system. Needless to say I was shook, the odds of this happening seem so small.

When's the last time you met a random person outside of the anomaly or community expeditions?

Quest for power [Question]

I feel like, on at least one playthrough, I received a quest to use my visor to search for power sources to power my base. During that quest I got something added to my visor to search for it.

In my current save, I don’t have that in my visor and I don’t have a quest even though I feel like I have progressed beyond that point.

Is there something in particular that I may need to buy or did I screw up and miss a step somewhere?

Would you pick an S-class freighter or a C-class freighter with significantly more slots? [Question]

I've passed up the chance to upgrade to an S-class freighter because of how many more slots my C-class freighter currently has. I've found it useful especially when combined with the matter teleporter so far, especially in red class+ systems at the moment because I haven't gotten enough freighter warp upgrades yet.

BTW side question: the freighter upgrades do carry over right? You just have to reinstall them on the new freighter?

#

I can't access a red system I have been to previously with no space station [Question]

I've included an image to help, but basically I had done the mission where you travel to a red system for the first time and was able to warp there fine from my home base system, but now when I try go back again for another quest the quest line on the galaxy map is telling me to off in some random direction and I have wasted 8 or 9 warp cores already going in that way and its not bringing me anywhere near the system.

It's also telling me that the red system is now over 700K light years away

What gives?

If this is a bug the developers should have at least made it so that there were space stations in every single system so that no matter what you can always get back there.

I was really enjoying the game but if this is something where I can now not progress with the main quest then I am probably going to put it down

Issues holding ship controls on VR? [Question]

Started up NMS again, now with the Valve knuckles controllers. (Last time I played I was using the Rift CV1 controllers.)

I seem to be having a lot of problem holding i to the spaceship controls and I'm not sure what's going on or how to fix it. I presume you grab them by holding the knuckles grip, but my avatar keeps letting go, especially during manuvering. (Such as, being attacked by pirates...)

What this game needs, in my humble opinion [Suggestion]

I find myself making a new save every time a large update comes out and then losing interest after ~30-50 hours. I get all my farms set up, advanced manufacturing, find a great freighter and a few nice ships, finish the main storyline, then find myself just sort of aimlessly wandering from system to system looking at cool planets. Don't get me wrong, I do love this last part, but it gets stale. I usually find myself with a couple billion in the bank, tons of resources, and nothing to really use them on. Here's what I think would benefit this game tremendously, and give it some more staying power:

Manufacturing Give us the ability to create functional manufacturing products such as ship parts, modifications, and even capital ships. There might be an NPC market for such parts in large regional hubs where you could buy them for units. Automating complex manufacturing recipes to allow us to create autonomous factories. Maybe we pair this with the existing settlements and require us to man the factories with settlers.

Ship Customization With the ability to manufacture ship parts, naturally the next step would be ship customization. There may need to be a rebalancing of resources to make ship parts somewhat difficult to obtain. As it stands, activated indium is easy to find and get a lot of. Maybe it would just require a lot of said resources, so we're talking thousands of these resources to build the relevant parts, and maybe you'd also need to find blueprints through planetary exploration or POIs.

Capital fleets Not just freighters and frigates, I'm talking a whole range of ship classes with different roles. Carriers with large drone bays, drones that do damage or repair other ships. Dreadnoughts that have large capital ship killing weapons, but that are relatively bulky and struggle against smaller more maneuverable ships such as: Battleships, which pump out a lot...

Would Somebody Please Be Kind Enough Or Happen To Have Images Of The In-Game Guide Pages? [Question]

I have finished the story of the game but there was an unexpected glitch which happened when I was transferring my save file to a new installment update version of the game and now the game thinks that I am still in the tutorial phase so quite a significant number of pages have gone missing and entire sections of the guide have grayed out and are not available anymore and are not activating automatically. I am a returning player after approximately a year and I needed to revise the gameplay mechanics and I can't find any way to activate the guide on my save file through the in-game options or by using any hacking technique or mod or even the nms save editor.

second forced restart after 110 hours [Bug]

Im afraid I have to restart my journey for the second time because of bad terrain generation. First time 70+ hours and my second game has 40+ hours. The first time there was a freighter atop of a console I needed and the second time there was a stupid lump of dirt atop of where the console is in my first settlement. Can't seem to restart those missions so I think I'm boned. Really love the game but to lose al that progression for a second time is really bumming me out. Any advice?

Too many ships.. [Question]

Old expedition reward eggs [Discussion]

Hello fellow travelers,

I recently got my daughter into the game they are loving every second of it. She was looking at all the expedition rewards and was umming and ahing about all the creatures you can get as pets. When she found out that the eggs are unobtainable anymore I did some research and found out that if someone already has the pet they can give an egg to others. I have tried sitting around the nexus asking if someone has any of these eggs that they are willing to part with to no avail so now i turn to the fellow travelers of reddit for my request. Do any of you have any of these old expedition eggs? Quad, sandworm, or green terror are all appreciated the same. Thank you kindly in advance for even reading this post and considering it.

Weird glitch… [Bug]

So I’m pretty sure this is already a known multiplayer glitch, but it happened to me solo. I was just doing some ship scrapping, when I realized the A class fighter I bought to scrap was suddenly a class and had all of the same tech and inventory as the solar class ship I slew into the station with. No clue was caused it but it would be cool if it could be recreated.

Is it possible to get 3D mesh files of NMS ships for 3D printing? [Question]

Title. I have seen some posts on here before of people who have 3D printed their ship from NMS. I am considering getting a 3D printer and man it would be cool to print some of my own ships from the game. Is there a way to extract a 3D mesh file (could be any format) from the game itself? Or are people just 3D modeling their own ships from scratch in order to print them?

Storm crystals in permanent death save [Question]

Hi, In the recent days I saw the "Outlaws" update, I was so thrilled about it that I hopped on my computer and tried the update out. I have a permanent save file from around Prisms update, I haven't used the save file since then. If I recall correctly, storm crystals appears scattered around the planet during extreme storm. So as I said, I tried out the Outlaws update, continued my permanent save file (btw I'm getting close to the galaxy centre, I want that achievement so bad, that's why I created the save file at first lmao) and I've been on several planets that have extreme storms but I couldn't even find a single piece of storm crystals.

So I'm curious if this has been happened to anyone else, I accept any type of suggestions, to be honest this is why I posted here, I'm curious if anyone else had this problem so it would be a relief for me that this isn't happening to me only. In that case, what happened? Did they change the behaviour of storm crystals in the Outlaws update? Did they disappear by a lurking bug?

Anyway I'll keep you all updated if I ever stumble upon a storm crystals. So far I've been on 6 planets with extreme weather with no luck.

Scientist Quest Line Help? [Question]

I'm stuck on the scientist quest, I'm supposed to acquire a circuit board by aiding the scientist yet I don't have any quests associated with it, and it only asks for data.

Is it possible for me to travel a ridiculous amount and leave behind planets with a name on them or others to find scattered all throughout a swath of systems for other people to find and possibly follow the trail? [Question]

I was thinking of devoting a hundreds of hours into this maybe around 100kly from galactic cores specifically. Yes I would have to visit thousands of systems but I yhink it would be kind of a cool way to add playable content in the community. So....is this possible for me?

Permadeath Mode: Whats the fastest way to the center of the galaxy on my own? [Question]

The game uses the wrong GPU and I'm unable to change it [Question]

I've scoured the internet for every possible solution and nothing works. I've tried forcing it in the nvidia control panel, tried editing the "TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML" file, tried the regedit edits. Last year it was fine, reinstalled it today and now it suddenly defaults to the integrated graphics instead of my nvidia GPU. Any ideas?

Unpopular Opinion - I miss the old space combat system; it felt rewarding actually maneuvering to defeat enemies. Now it's a bumper-car ride [Suggestion]

I understand the change, I really do - helps players feel more at ease with combat. And I understand the auto-follow 's' makes it less stressful. However, not being able to remap that button is annoying because I liked the old combat style.

To work around the change, I had to rebind 'brake' to 'left-ctrl'. It's a bit awkward, but it does enable the mode I was proud of having somewhat mastered.

I guess the real question is then, can we please have the ability to disable the auto-targeting-follow thing, so that 's' can be used for 'braking' only?

#

Forged Passports; what's the deal? [Discussion]

From what it says it seems to suggest that it erases all the negative standing you gained in the last system but redeeming it only gives you 1 standing point - which doesn't balance out even with just the quests you do to get them.

It looks like it's supposed to be an incentive for players to engage with the new space combat and piracy content without affecting their standing, but I don't think it achieves that as it currently is.

Some people will say "just do the missions where you hunt rival pirates to restore your standing" but that's not my point, my point is; I think the forged passport should be more clear that it's essentially a relic you can give to any race rather than a "get away with recent piracy" card like it suggests.

Thoughts?

#

What's the deal with freighter battles now? [Question]

Apologies in advance if this has been addressed elsewhere; I've searched here as well as elsewhere and have been struggling to find a clear explanation.

My issue is that I'm not encountering any freighter battles--the events that allow you to obtain a free freighter. I've read that these occur after three hours and five jumps, but have also read some conflicting info suggesting it's not (or no longer?) that simple. In any case, I've been playing for 20+ hours, have jumped 20+ times, and haven't received a single instance of correspondence from any freighters at all.

I HAVE encountered freighters doing battle with pirates and contributed to killing those pirates, but there was no communication from the freighter before, during, or after the skirmish in any case. (I check my communicator frequently during these events and it's always greyed out.)

Moreover, my friend who just started the game, received a free freighter the other day without responding to any communication from the freighter. He simply killed a bunch of surrounding pirates and waited a little bit for a thank-you call, which never came. So he boarded the freighter just to check, and the captain passed it on to him for free. I tried this same thing twice yesterday, but alas, the captains wanted money.

So what's the deal? Is there maybe some early-game thing you have to do before these can be triggered? Getting a freighter is my primary goal rn but I've already gone three sessions with no success. Very hopeful that this isn't yet another case of a No Man's Sky bug wasting like a whole week.

How to turn off the camera snap? [Question]

Is this a bug, or do missions get removed if I ignore them for too long? Is there a way to get it back?

Free Updates for Existing Players [Discussion]

These are great, these are wonderful. I love them and I hope they never go away.. but man I was just thinking if they gave us a HUGE paid DLC how many of you would be willing to pay, if not just to support HG and all their great work? I for one would be all over it in a heartbeat. I'm talking HUGE update I don't even care what it contains specifically.. at this point everything they do is great. They could focus on adding tons of new assets flora/fauna/terrain/grass/nebulas/ship parts for the existing ship types/dungeons on planets with dangerous life forms inside/base building parts and new alien races.. Being a paid DLC the devs would actually be able to focus on the DLC content more attentively. I think it would be awesome.

#

Base computer quest? [Question]

OK so I’m kind of new to no man’s sky and I didn’t do a traditional save for my first run through. What I mean is I started as an expedition save rather than go through the tutorial like a traditional save. Originally my intention was to just let this turn into a normal save after the event is over. So I’ve been trying to construct the base and there’s no base computer in my building menu. I’ve looked at the Nexus and I can’t find any sort of blueprint I need to buy, and I’ve heard everybody gets it from the awakenings mission but I don’t seem to have that mission. Am I missing something simple or is this a glitch? Any help is appreciated. Also I don’t have awakenings in my current missions. Is it possible I just haven’t progressed in the current missions far enough? My three main missions currently are, the atlas path, the space anomaly, and the blighted.

Can we get some ship editing? [Discussion]

#

Javelin and Neutron Cannon Damage? [Question]

For my Multitool setup, I have 3 multitools, each an S class and equipped with different weapons/tools.

The one I'm currently working on is a Rifle design that I'm outfitting with A Blaze Javelin, Neutron Cannon, Paralysis Mortar and Cloak Device. However, the damage potential stat, even with full S class upgrades doesn't go any higher than 384ish, despite full Javelin shots on a paralyzed foe dishing out about 4000 damage.

In addition to that, I added the basic bolt caster to the tool with no upgrades and the potential went up significantly.

I am curious, does the damage potential stat affect all the weapons in your tool, or is it just detailing how much damage you can dish out with a single shot including all weapons? And is the reason the damage potential is so low with only the Blaze Javelin and Neutron Cannon is because it's only accounting for a non charged shot which are inherently weak?

Any info is appreciated.

The Multitool is meant to be my slower firing but heavy hitting Cannon like gun which I prefer over the bullet hose of my Pulse Spitter and Scatter Shooter. And I dunno about anyone else, but I wish Combat scopes could see further, even if it meant putting multiple scopes on one tool, I want an actual sniper scope for the sniper like Javelin.

When I teleport to my bases I end up below the floor, Can I set a custom spawn or is there something else I can do to fix it? [Question]

I make simple bases to save locations I like. They are all not prefab parts. I make all of them like 2x3 rectangles and set up usually just a portal. I had trouble with grass and plants growing through on my first base so I now build them all a ramp or two off the ground and often like overhanging cliffs and out over open air.

But everytime I portal between bases I end up at the bottom of those cliffs or just jammed in the one-ramp-up amount of space below my base. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Jetpack Initial Boost Issue? [Question]

Heyo! So, I wanted to get some input regarding Jetpack upgrades on the Exosuit. I recently went through and revamped my Exosuit tech, and I'm really liking it so far! Getting used to Rocket Boots, but they're handy lol

That said, I do have one annoyance at the moment, and I assume it's from the "Initial Boost Power" that's included on all Jetpack modules. Every time I take off, whether from standing/walking, sprinting, melee boosting, or Rocket Boots, I get a good leap, but then start to fall back down for a moment before rising again.

While it seems minor, this has gotten pretty frustrating. I hit terrain a lot easier now, even on very gentle slopes. And worse, I can't even properly jetpack up ladders in my base anymore. I jump, fall back down and hit the ground, and grab the ladder instead every time. I love all the stamina/tank upgrades and whatnot from the modules, but the fact that I lose height before my jetpacks actually start pushing me upwards again has been a nuisance so far.

Is there anything that can help with this? Or is it just something to deal with with having the upgrades? Thanks!

How to find a "perfect" settlement? [Question]

Just started settlements, and it looks like you only get the one, so of course I want it to be as good as possible.

I know how to use the maps to physically find a settlement (though it’s still a bit buggy and eats the maps sometimes), but how do I find a perfect settlement?

Some guides mentioned low pop since it gives more room for growth. Obviously some settlements are just graded better at the start. Some have more positives, and I’ve even seen screenshots of an ALL positive perk settlement.

If you were looking for an actual “perfect” settlement, what would you be looking for?

#

Can anyone explain to me how to do this? [Discussion]

how am I supposed to defend my settlement when I have to fight never-ending waves of pirate spacecraft? I alt-F4 out of the game because it just got too stupid and there was no logic behind any of it. At what point does it end? Or is the end game just a non-stop dog fight so the expedition can't be completed? I went through 5 waves and left on the 6th.

#

my activated copper mine only gives normal copper now. have they got rid of activated minerals? [Question]

Howdy outlaws,

So yeah, title really. Not played in a couple of years, but back when I did I got lucky with an activated copper vein, so set up a farm on it and did the chromatic metal selling thing for tons of money, bit then the base it was built at got borked in the exomech update.

Since outlaws I've gone back and it seems to be working again, so I wired it all back up and started drilling, only to find that instead of cu+, I'm only producing cu. I know it was previously an activated copper mine because I still have 10k activated on my ship.

Have they done away with activated metal mining or is this just a bug I found myself on the wrong side of? It's no big deal if that's the case, I've got a mag-power station so I'm producing endless copper with endless power, and can chromaticise (?) It all, but it's confusing is all.

Cheers!

Clarification of Freighter Class Differences in relation to Frigate Missions [Question]

I'm trying to decide between a 34-9 slot A-class Capital Freighter that I've got the opportunity to get for free right now or potentially reloading for hours and hours to try for an S-class instead. Here's my dilemma. In researching here on Reddit and various other forums, I've come to the conclusion that the main differences between the two are the maximum slot potential of an A-class being 42-14 and an S-class being 48-21, and the warp range being farther with the S class. I could live with both of those things and would probably settle for the A-class if those were truly the only differences. The confusion, though, comes in when in a couple of the 10 or 12 threads I read, there was a vague mention of an S-class freighter offering better or more rewards for frigate missions than its A-class counterpart. Or something of that nature. That, unlike the warp distance and slot differences, would bother me since I planned on putting a lot of time into the frigate missions in this new save.

However, I just can't find any clarification on whether this is true or not, since like I said most of the posts on the subject don't actually mention it, and the posts that do are too old for me to reasonably expect a response if I asked for clarification. So, can anyone here clarify whether the differences in frigate mission rewards between A and S-class freighters is really a thing or not, and if so, how drastic are the differences?

Has the building in the game been refined? [Question]

Hey guys I haven’t hopped on NMS for a while (I think since the settlements update came out). I wanted to know if the building part of the game is better off now? I remember after that update it was pretty janky and a lot of parts weren’t fitting together as intended - especially a lot of the newer pieces with scaffolding and different designs. Also have they patched that bug that leaks water in your underwater base if you don’t use underwater specific components or the 2 story build max before the weather generates inside the building?

I can't figure out how to advance.

I google for it, and there are a lot of issues, but it's all from different parts of the quest than mine.

Wanted: 1-3 companions for fresh start (Normal mode) [Discussion]

I’ve been playing my main NMS character for a long while, mostly solo. I’d like to try starting a new save in Normal mode, but it would be interesting to try it with 1-3 other players, all starting on the same planet at the same time. Not competitive, and with the possibility of helping each other out.

We’d exchange NMS friend codes and all agree on a time to be online. One of us would start the session and the others would join. Then we’d all work on finding and repairing our ships. We could part ways once we get off planet, or work on finding a recurring time (weekly, biweekly, monthly, whatever) to get online and play those particular saves.

Sound interesting? My friend code is MJG9-SNM9-CYCGW (also in my profile).

Scale Glitching Question [Question]

Evening. So I've recently decided to up my build game and have been experimenting with build glitches. Currently my favorite is the scale glitch. I'm shrinking down everything from batteries and solar panels to switches and teleporters. I went on creative as I use that medium to test concepts and if they work I add them to my main saves. So for no other reason that to see if it worked, I found 3 hotspots, all c's again just testing concepts. Scale glitched everything, extractors, reservoirs, refiners, even the power towers, can't think of their proper names. I managed to make a rather large farm that was zapped with ant man technology. 25 power towers on one lg floor slab, two three story towers, again one large floor slab is total footprint. Farm produces 56000 Cobalt, and 55000 Oxygen every 18 hours. Surplus of power is off the charts. Added a "hunny I shrunk the teleporter", 4 landing pads, and basically a round tower basic style base. Two more mini reservoirs at the base for collection. I managed to find all three spots within the 300u range. Few issues with wires but used batterie's to bridge. Over all as a proof of concept its perfect. My question is, yea yea I'm a bit long winded, will the scaled down items eventually revert to their original size similar to terrain respawning in areas where they have been removed, or will the scaled stick to the items indefinatly? Thanks in advance

Black Storms (and other new weather events) [Discussion]

Last night, I had this dream that they added new weather events to the game, particularly on anomalous planets. One such event was called a Black Storm, described as creating nightmare creatures. Essentially, it was a thick black fog that developed, making it slightly harder to see, and turning every creature hostile when they see you in the fog.

It has me thinking, what other weather events could they add? Or, what could they add to existing ones? I know anomalous planets have descriptions for some that we never see. What could the stranger ones look like?

What's your perfect system? [Discussion]

I'm currently chasing a mission across many different systems and have been using this opportunity to hunt for a new home. This has given me the question, what does your perfect system consist of?

Mine would be a peaceful system with absolutely zero sentinel presence. At least two paradise planets and one very hot or volcanic planet and one very cold or icy planet. One paradise planet has to have one moon and ideally the icy or hot planet would be a moon for one of the paradise planets. One planet in the system also has to have some nice rings.

I'm very particular about my systems and wanted to hear what some of yours would be.

Regarding Solar ship parts [Discussion]

I’m curious what other peoples opinion is regarding which wings were designed for which body type? For example the Falcon and the double wing look like they were made for each other before being chopped up to procedural. The torpedo tips seem to match the Raven nose.

Blighted, Phase 1, Rendezvous Point 1 bugged? (Expedition 6) [Bug]

Hello!

I'm having trouble finding Rendezvous Point 1, as part of Phase 1 of the Blighted expedition.

I've done legwork on this already. I've looked up some videos about completing this specific milestone, as well as read threads where other people had issues with finding rendezvous points in past expeditions, and my situation seems to be different than everyone else's.

I know that if everything's working right, you're supposed to select the Rendezvous Point 1 milestone as the currently tracked objective, then you pull up the galaxy map and follow the suggested path for the expedition until you find the yellow symbol that indicates the Rendezvous Point. You then travel to that star system, and you should be able to see that same symbol marking a planet to go to. Once on the planet, you use your analysis visor to locate it.

My problem is that I can see the symbol on the galaxy map, and I've traveled to the star system where the symbol is. I've looked around all of the planets and moons and that are in that star system, and none of them have the rendezvous point symbol! I went to nearby star systems just to check if I was somehow in the wrong one, but every time I'm led back to the original one. But there's just nothing there! Has anyone else had this issue?

I've closed the game completely, gone to different space stations, different nearby systems, I've even untracked and tracked this milestone...nothing works.

#

Is it bugged or am I just stupid? [Question]

So I've recently got back into the game since losing interest after initial launch like many did.

I'm about 40 hours in and decided I should complete the Artemis quest line so I can get the glyphs and visit everyone's cool bases. I'm at the part where I'm supposed to go to a multi tool trader to get the upgrade, (I've watched a few videos already to see if I could figure it out) but that part of the quest started while I was in an outlaw system (gek too) so it keeps telling me to go to the spacestation there, then as soon as I enter the waypoint points back at the entrance to the station. Idk what to do...

I don't really have the option to just reload a save cause I kept playing doing other side quests and general shenanigans. Got a few new starships, upgraded those, my exosuit (almost max now), and my freighter. Plus made my first 150m units. I really don't want to lose all that progress but would love to continue the questline..

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Base computer quest? [Answered]

OK so I’m kind of new to no man’s sky and I didn’t do a traditional save for my first run through. What I mean is I started as an expedition save rather than go through the tutorial like a traditional save. Originally my intention was to just let this turn into a normal save after the event is over. So I’ve been trying to construct the base and there’s no base computer in my building menu. I’ve looked at the Nexus and I can’t find any sort of blueprint I need to buy, and I’ve heard everybody gets it from the awakenings mission but I don’t seem to have that mission. Am I missing something simple or is this a glitch? Any help is appreciated. Also I don’t have awakenings in my current missions. Is it possible I just haven’t progressed in the current missions far enough? My three main missions currently are, the atlas path, the space anomaly, and the blighted.

Atlas is just another creature? [Discussion]

Ok, this sounds incredibly unbelievable, but I just found a sentinel node that said that universe used to be filled with sentient life, but slowly declined till there were only 4 (or 3). I also learned from the same node that Atlas, praised as a God, controller of the universe, simulation, etc. etc., is actually just a giant creature that appeared in the universe. Like every creature we meet that can swim or speak or has claws for digging or wings to fly, Atlas is a creature that understands the universe is a simulation with the power to control it. Just like the storyline (with 16 being the amount of time left) he is a creature that also dies from natural reasons. His being old age, and that's why he keeps repeating the simulation over and over to delay his own inevitable. If I could replay the node and screenshot it, I would but I can't reread the node log after reading it.

Can I somehow abandon or reset "The Settlers" Mission? [Question]

Can I summon claimed ships, no matter who far away they are? [Question]

So I have been playing for a few hours now, and yesterday I found two crashed space ships with some more or less valuable stuff inside, and I claimed both of them. I repaired the basic components of both crashed ships so they can at least fly again now, but now I have 3 ships sitting on some toxic planet and I don't know how I should proceed. Like, if I warp jump to another galaxy for example, will I still be able to summon the other ships? Is it even necessary to have 3 ships? Should I maybe sell one? Because one of the crashed ships has a trade price around 5 million units, which is a large amount for me right now. Any advice would be very welcome! :)

Desperate for help with my communication station problem. [Question]

Yesterday I followed a guide on deleting communication stations from bases. I flew far away from my base, popped down another one and put in a message. Saved, reloaded and it worked. They were both gone. I continued building my base as normal, saved multiple times and even uploaded my base and the station was still gone. Came back this morning and it's somehow back in my base. I can't get rid of the f@#£ing thing. I can't believe the devs would create something so utterly evil lol. I swear it's laughing at me!

If anyone knows of a permanent way to destroy this thing and send it back to whatever hell it came from, I would greatly appreciate it. Even if I have to delete my whole base I spent hours on. If I could nuke the planet from orbit, I would, just to see it burn 🔥.

old exotic helmets and exotic ship inconsistencies need to be fixed before they're forgotten about. [Suggestion]

The first spawn battle mask and eye of the korvax helmet aren't wearable by their respective races. The problem doesn't seem that hard to solve, just add the battle mask as it's own head option with no secondary head/ mask options so there's no clipping issues. The fact that this has been going on for so long now is ridiculous and kind of misleading to anyone thinking they can equip them on a gek or korvax character and thus waste quicksilver. Also exotic ships like the Royal and squid ship need an overhaul as far as cockpits go as they use exploration vessel cockpits and it feels kinda placeholder. The difference doesn't need to be night and day just enough to show that they're....well....exotic? It's not too big an issue but it shows that older content is getting swept under the rug a bit by hello games and it's already happening with solar ships/ living ships getting the attention to detail they have gotten while these old inconsistencies remain. As far as the helmets go I feel like a small patch is all it would take meanwhile the older exotic ships could get a first person update when another ship update happens.

Confused about upgrades [Question]

Hi, relatively new player here. The guide for upgrades says you can have no more than 3 upgrades for the same tech subsystem, but I have 6 jetpack upgrades, all on the exosuit technology tab (4 tank upgrades, the rocket boots, and the airburst) and its working fine for me. I even have the bonus for having them all together. Why is this?

Multiplayer issue on XBOX [Question]

I am trying to play the new expedition with my friend who plays on PC, we have played together in the past but its been a few months

When i check my Xbox settings they are all correct and connected to internet. When I load up NMS it doesnt give me the option for multiplayer it just goes to the screen where you select the save file you want to use. When i make a new save for the expedition I can see other players so I know I am online but I am not able to host or join sessions with friends and when I go to my settings in NMS the network settings are completely gone from the option list.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is it a bug or is cross play no longer available between console and PC?

A Traveler got Revenge [Discussion]

I didn’t take a screenshot, and I’m sure they repeat themselves so a lot of y’all have probably seen it.

I was reading the flight records from a crashed freighter. It discussed shooting a traveler out of the sky and collecting his body. Then the next entry discussed the horror of him finding them again two weeks later in what I can only assume was the ultimate freighter destroying revenge. I like that the resurrection mechanics of being a traveler are included in the lore.

I also wish we could encounter big even freighters that tried to shoot us down and destroy them.

Glitched mission.. any solution? [Bug]

I have tried reloading twice and I still get the same result: on the mission 16/16, after I input the glyphs and travel through the portal, I end up on a planet with no clue how to proceed. From what I read online, this is not how the mission usually unfolds (I should visit the Atlas, no?) and I'm wondering if the mission is broke. Maybe I'm still just missing the next step? I tried dying, but I can't die on this planet.

Any suggestions? I'm hoping not to restart from the beginning.

Can someone help me out with performance before I go crazy please [Question]

My setup is

RTX 3080

I7 10700K

32GB DDR4 RAM @ 3600MHZ

Freshly installed newest nvidia driver (used ddu to make sure it was a clean install)

Installed chipset updates for cpu/mobo

I am getting like 70 fps average, sometimes stutters and lag will dip me to as low as 59, some times I will go over 100. This seems very unstable and relatively poor performance wise given my specs. I play on max settings at 1440p. I have had people report they are playing at 120-165 fps with no dips or lag on equal or similar hardware.

I find it hard to believe that's true, can someone else let me know if they share my performance or better and tell me what is going on?

Using DLSS makes no difference, with it off I get the same FPS as with it on, it makes literally no sense.

Thank you.

so I'm a dummy with a peanut sized brain. [Discussion]

For context, I have 250 hours into the game (most those occurred between 17-20). So not a scrub by any means according to these standards. Let's discuss.

Last night someone dropped 5 stasis devices into my inventory. Sold for a metric f&%k ton. I'd never seen that before . Curious I went to the anomaly to unlock it. Turns out I had every recipe unlocked (go me?).

So for the entirely that I've been playing I've been focused solely on exploration and trade routes. So I've been stock piling all kinds of things. All kinds of goodies from fleet expeditions, random farms I've never really used. All of this has been sitting in my freighter for 3 + years.

So I start my endeavor of apparently reacquainted myself with the crafting system and seeing what all I could craft with what was in my freighters storage. In the end I ended up with

20 statis devices, 38 heat capacitors, 18 cryo pumps, 6 quantum processors,102 fusion accelerant, and 26 fusion ignitor.

So I basically broke the game now 😂

So not only a dummy with a peanut sized brain BUT I wear the crown for kings of the scrubs.

Toggling text chat in VR soft-locks the game [Bug]

So... I found a promising button configuration for "toggle chat window" from the SteamVR controller config menu and decided to try it out. It opened the text chat window, but while I could write messages, I couldn't send them, since the game didn't register Enter. Nor did it register any button on my controller (even the "send chat message" that I had set up, and more worryingly, not even ESC did anything.

So apologies to the community if I won't answer any chat messages in the Nexus! Not intending to be rude, just that VR be like that sometimes.

I properly discovered all 16 glyphs by doing the Atlas Stations and not doing any grave sites which are known to cause problems, yet somehow I still got an error while trying to finish the story and the game crashed when I did my final jump towards the center of the galaxy. I fixed that error and finished the story of the game and now after a little while the game still thinks that I haven't discovered all of the Atlas Stations and there is a prompt telling me to go towards it.

Working on the expedition… [Question]

All I have left is the Intergalatic milestone… and breadcrumbs of course.

I have read a ton of posts trying to figure this out, I “think” I was in the R5 system and pulled the star map and had a green line, followed it… it looks unending but the posts all say it should be one jump with the Indy core and a full tank. Now I have NO idea how to get back to the R5 system since I finished and now there is no quest bubble. I have no idea what the system name is… or how to find a specific system… actually if I knew the name I could teleport back but I’m still stuck with the green line… or was I in the wrong system to start with? Help!!!

A message to all new and existing players.. [Discussion]

If you ever want to explore the universe with a fellow traveller then feel free to get in touch whenever.

I've been playing this game for nearly 6 years now and I've only explored with others a handful of times.

It would be great to meet up with new people from all over the world and connect through our love for this great game.

Pirate frigate missions? [Suggestion]

Here I am, standing in my freighter, having assigned only half of my frigate force to the missions my navigator had, and it got me thinking: it'd be really cool if there were a black-market version of those missions in pirate systems. Like, send your Exploration ships to forbidden systems, have your Combat ships go knock over trade convoys while your Trade ships go to sell those stolen goods. Just a thought. Plus it'd help me occupy these 10ish ships who've just been following my freighter around for months now.

Why is no one talking about Station Overrides? [Discussion]

So, as the title says station overrides seem to be lacking in recent conversation. Like, they randomly appeared during one of the previous expeditions and still are pretty redundant right..? Right?

Well, since this last update I think were a step closer to some idea of what's upcoming .. I think (and hope) we're soon going to get the option to own and run a station similar to the settlements update with either normal or piracy options available. (mega speculation btw)

This would be amazing and the idea of being the owner of a system would be absolutely epic, I personally would be choosing a blue pirate system with black hole and hopefully a couple of cool planets.

What would be your ideal owned system?

New traveler, a bit lost on multitool upgrades. [Question]

So I have only been playing for about 7 hours in so far. Have absolutely fallen in love with the game already, but damn is there a lot to learn. Tonight though I've found myself lost in some conflicting information. I found a multitool I'd like to buy, but couldn't figure out how to move over my upgrades. After a little research I've found out you can't move them over, that much I have seen consistent information on. How ever I've seen mention of knowing the blueprints for said upgrades. Some people have said you can destroy it, and learn it's blueprint and others have said other methods. It's possible I'm just tired and misunderstanding posts, but truly I'm confused on if or how I'd know if I know my scanner S module upgrades blueprint and if I don't how I'd learn it. Anyone care to give this rookie a little clarity on the subject? Happy travels everyone.

Is it possible to access all my storage units at once? [Question]

I am pretty new so forgive me if I did/say something wrong. I just built 3 storage units on my base to help with my complete lack of inventory skills (and I want to keep things instead of immediately selling them for storage slots). And now that I have three of them, I was wondering if it was possible to access them all at once? I don't want to open each one individually trying to find something when I could maybe just see it all at once. Is there some upgrade that allows this? (similar to the wire hider research thing on the anomaly)

Also: Why are the storage units numbered? They all hold the same amount of space, is it for organizational purposes?

When your Indium Farm turns into a confluence of luck (Ex6 Spoilers) [Discussion]

In Expedition 6, the Base Computer is unavailable until the very end, only after hopping into Galaxy #90 do you get the plans.

Since everyone arrives in the same place in Galaxy #90 I random-hopped about a thousand light-years away into a blue star to make my new home, which ended up being on an extreme radioactive planet.

Later on once I started hunting hotspots, I lucked out into an S-class Activated Indium deposit, and only after I'd fully set the place up did I realize there are two large collections of Runaway Mould nearby - one about 350u away from the indium mine, and another 800+u away in the other direction.

Which leads into my last pleasant discovery: if you mine them while a radiation storm is in progress, they yield a lot more Runaway Mould. I'm finding that if I hit both deposits over the course of the storm, I'm coming away with something like 5-6 full stacks or more. I've also observed this with Gamma Roots planted into the bare earth, so now it's Science Time: I need to see if this affects crops harvested from a base biodome as well.

If that works, I'll have a hell of a planet for growing crops for Stasis Devices on...

The Space Anomoly stuck on Nada [Question]

Hello all..

Maybe i'm missing something but im kinda stuck on the start of the space anomoly mission when you need to speak to Nada and Polo..

In the bottom right corner it tells me to speak to them but Nada tells me nothing has changed and he's does not lie, when I ask him about the anomoly he tells me Polo is always busy after that the dialog stops.

When I talk to Polo I can ask about Anomoly, atlas and black hole cordinates but nothing happens after..

The quest marker stays above Nada all the time. When I head to my log and check the primary target the first goal is to visit old friends?

Pirate Space Station Mission that I can't figure out: Eliminate Rivals [Question]

I'm trying to complete expedition 6 and the last thing I need to do is the kill 32 pirates milestone. So, I go to a Pirate-controlled space station and accept a mission called "Eliminate Rivals" from the Bounty Master. The mission description is as follows:

"Hunt and Destroy a Pirate

A 'dispute' has arisen between rival pirate factions. Events have escalated to armed conflict.

Now, a prize has been put on the head of GekRaider Efryt, leader of the Geks Against Everything. Their ship may be found near a floating wreck that serves as their base of operations."

So I get back in my ship and head out into space and pulse to the location of the mission marker and there's a freighter and a bunch of frigates, but not a pirate, floating wreck, unusual structure, or anything else in sight. And no matter what I do to any of the nearby ships, freighters, or frigates, or to any of the other random pirates that show up as your usual random bounties in pirate systems, no such pirate as GekRaider Efryt ever shows up and basically nothing happens no matter what I do or how long I wait. Does anyone have any idea what I'm supposed to do to complete this mission?

Expedition 6 phase 2 milestone 2 bug help [Bug]

First, I am aware of Zendesk and will be submitting a bug report. But since there's a very real chance that it won't be patched before the end of the expedition, I'm hoping someone here can help me find a workaround.

Finally got around to starting Expedition 6 and was planning on blowing through it this weekend. However, when I selected the Phase 2 milestone to investigate the crashed freighter, it gave me a waypoint that was an intersection of two crashed freighters. The white ball for the freighter that I need to access for the milestone is contained within the geometry of the other crashed freighter and is completely inaccessible.

I already tried hopping to Euclid via the Anomaly to try to reset the mission, but despite the log showing the red swirl mark and the text providing instructions to press R3 (I'm on PS5) to reset the mission using local assets, it doesn't actually let me do the reset for the expedition milestone.

Am I hosed and just have to start over? Or is there some way I can get the objective to switch to a different crash site?

Thanks for any help.

If you ever land on a derelict freighter and everything is slanted, do not continue. [Bug]

Just happened to me where I came across a derelict freighter that had a second freighter clipping through it, but I didn't know until I had to go down a ladder.

I thought maybe it was just one of the random things that could happen as a "scenario" or whatever when going to this event, so I didn't question the slanted floor much.

Then I got to the ladder. As soon as I got off of it, the other freighter's model appeared and the floor was so steep I couldn't make it to a heater that was right in front of me and couldn't get back to the ladder as the second freighter was blocking me. I started moving different directions, panicking, and fell through both freighters. I was outside the boundaries hitting random barriers and taking fall damage every few seconds. There was no way out and I was 4 hours into the expedition. I just Alt-F4'd out of frustration but I have no idea when the last save was.

Anyways, just a warning if you find yourself on a severely slanted freighter, do not continue. Even if there's no second freighter, you'll eventually get to a point where the floor is too steep to continue.

The Tragic and Early Death of Iteration A12BC6A7FFD3987 [Discussion]

This is just an account of how badly my most recent Permadeath start went. I've had many permadeath starts go just fine, this one did not.

Spawned on a scalding hot planet, and entered the nearest cave to avoid a quick death by heat exposure. There I repaired my scanner, and gathered enough cobalt to make some ion batteries. All good so far! My hazard protection will not be an issue!

Only it turns out, upon scanning, that I can find plenty of sodium flowers, but very, very few oxygen flowers. And what's worse is there is practically no carbon anywhere. There are what looks like dead trees, but they are actual minerals made of salt. The planet has lots of spindly, red and brown shrubs, but these are only visual decoration -- they are not targetable, you can't harvest anything from them.

Turns out the only actual usable plant is a short reddish cactus-like thing with a brownish yellow flower. They are shorter than the non-targetable decorative scrub vegetation, and the same color, so that I cannot spot them at any distance. I have to actually, like, search through the undergrowth to find them, and there are not many of them to be found. Each one is worth a whopping 4 carbon.

So by the time I reach my ship, My life support is empty and I'm taking damage, and my mining laser is out of charge from trying to harvest dihydrogen along the way. There are 4 oxygen flowers growing near the ship (the largest group of them I will see in this ill-fated iteration), which I make it to just in time to delay death for a few minutes longer.

I duck into my ship and start the repair process. I decide to destroy my Rocket Launcher for 50 condensed carbon, so I can recharge my mining laser.

On the way to retrieve the Hermetic Seal, I am desperately searching for the little cactus things. I find a handful, but again, each one is only worth 4 carbon. I find a...

Dear Traveler [Information]

In a forgotten system, sits a planet. A planet once visited by another who left nothing but his memories. Scattered around the surface of the planet like a sprinkling of his mind. Across these com balls a story can be made out, and it reads as such:

Dear Traveler,

I have spent many a years exploring the vast expanse we call home, visiting alien worlds, watching sunsets so beautiful they take your breath and hold it until the crimson light of a new day burns away. I have watched beautiful nights full of stars not of my home world, I have sat countless hours in the cockpit of my ship, watching space move around me, the endless rotation of planets, the revolution of moons. I have learned so much not just from what I have experienced here, but from the travelers I have met along the way, those who have been here longer than me. Their stories bring a new light to this world, the sharing of experiences and love for the universe we all call home. This place we all call home has brought me to places not possible in previous lives. There is so much out there for us all to explore and see, so many places for us to share with everybody, or maybe just put down a chair and watch. After all of this time I have started to wonder something; why? Why do we explore, why do we jump from system to system. For all of us it's different, but for me, I am searching for something. Somewhere out there, there is a world, teeming with life and tucked into the edge of a galaxy.

Somewhere out there we all have a world waiting for us. Last night, I found mine. She was beautiful, her smile like those beautiful stars I have spent many a night watching. Her eyes shone like a binary sunrise deep in my chest. The way she held me close brought me back to that first day, and the joy the universe we all call home brought me. I could go on for hours, but I can only say so much before I give away the feeling that is mine.

Birth a Star (Atlas Questline) so spoilers if you haven't done it yet. [Suggestion]

I have an idea of the fact once you complete this quest gain some abilities. A blueprint for more health and Black Holes appear in your Galaxy Map are the two big ones. So I wonder if you to make thins a little relevant or to give this quest more inclination to finish maybe at the end where you "Birth a Star" too bad we couldn't actually birth an actual star and that turns into a new system that you can grow just like settlements. Then hire lifeforms to help you build a Space Station. Then you can show other people by join your session so viewable to other player only in group similar to the Freighter Mechanics. That way making all the blueprints you have open actually making use one things like say Fusion Igniters to power the Space Station maybe. I see the potential in the Settlements but scaling that up to a whole system would be pretty cool to see how your system that you birthed grow making the Atlas Quest be more rewarding.

Are solar ships absurdly loud when flying in orbit for anyone else? [Bug]

I started a brand new save after completing the latest expedition to do all the new outlaw stuff and picked up an S-class solar ship in one of the outlaw stations.

If I just fly using the engines (I'm on PS5, so using R2 instead of O) it isn't any louder than normal. Changing from first-person to third doesn't seem to make a difference.

My first project, What do you guys think? [Fan Work]

So about 2 years ago I got this game on a whim while it was on sale for 20$ via the PSN. Me and a great friend started off at the same time. I think our starting points were vastly different because I died from radiation damage pretty quickly lol. I had built several bases and etc before I even made it into space. This guy already had a freighter. Admittedly my ADHD got the best of me in this game but I do not regret it at all. All the cool experiences, the drilling through the earth for safety. Flying off a cliff in my ranger to randomly fall into a hole that ended up being a giant underground network of connected tunnels that I literally drove through for 30 minutes(running out of fuel), then dumping the car before drilling upwards to turn back to get my starship that had run out of thruster fuel as well lol. I started all sorts of resource sites across a Euclid galaxy.

So here I am again playing now again for one week where I just completed my first expedition, then decided to beat the game and jumped into a new Galaxy to start it all over again. During this new journey, I found a floating rock on a decent planet. Here I decided to build a garden and that idea spiraled out of control into my first really coalesced creative project. I call it " Hanging Garden". The basis of the idea came from the name itself. It went from "floating garden"(on a floating rock) to hanging garden probably due to some Babylonian reference in my childhood. As someone asked me if it was a reference to it which at the time I has forgotten about the ancient world wonder. As my idea expanded, I realized would it be cool if it was actually hanging? As if being suspended by chains or the like. So here we are, my 98% completed Hanging Garden( I have some nitpicking I want to do but decided to leave it as is).

Exotic starship squad [Fan Work]

For those that spend alot of time collecting and upgrading various starships, you can also have those added to your space squadron.

Go to any trade outpost with the ship you'd like to add in to your squad (have at least 1 empty squad slot) Create a save point for yourself (in case you'd like to revert any changes) wait for any starship to spawn in and ready yours for it. Your ship should then spawn in to an empty spot on the trading outpost (usually across from you) just recruit that pilot to your squad. In less than 5 minutes after adding this ship to your squad, another ship will spawn in. Same type, class, all upgrades and cargo still remaining. After retrieving your ship back, simply go to your freighter and check on your new squad. As a side note, while all upgrades and inventory transfers to the newly recruited pilot, I'm not sure if this really affects damage at all. I mostly like the aesthetic

All Starship Info Tab [Suggestion]

Hello everyone, I've been thinking maybe soon we could get a new tab in starships that show us the information (storage, name, hyperdrive etc) of all the other ships in our freighter.

It seems like the only way to check, which one of your ships can jump the longest or has the most storage (in case you forgot) then you can do so by entering that starship and pulling up the menu.

I never really noticed it before but it would definitely make manageability a lot better especially since there are more slots now.

They should release a “First Contact” update. [Suggestion]

Procedural generation already produces some pretty neat plants and animals. So what if they used it to make procedural, intelligent aliens. Specifically ones that have just evolved or are comparatively low-tech compared to the player. That way they’d be confined to a single planet system so that you could make finding them somewhat rare. Basically you’d come across systems that are inhabited and would essentially be navigating a First Contact scenario. And perhaps, depending on how successful you are, you could essentially influence their development and treatment of interlopers; they could end up being helpful or hostile to other players who find them.

Still no sightings od this animal whatsoever. Is this really working as intended? Every single time I miss an animal for the nanite bonus its an under ground animal. How the hell do you guys find them?

How to get wings to go down [Question]

Hey so this is probably a newbie question. But I have never owned a mosquito wing ship. So I recently acquired one and the wings are always in the up position. How do I get them to go down, is there a button or is my game bugged. ( I’m on Pc)

Phase 4 Treasure Hunt [Question]

I've warped probably more than 20 times along the expedition path provided by the pirate map but I've yet to find anything. I am seeing other travellers names who have discovered these systems as I go but it's taking so long I'm ready to give up. Warp warp warp, very frustrating.

Any ideas?

Exosuit Upgrade Mission... [Question]

I'm currently on the Exosuit upgrade mission and I need to craft a Antimatter Housing to complete it, now I've made an Antimatter Housing before as I have a Antimatter Cell but even with the resources to make said Antimatter Housing I can NOT find where to make the damn thing....I've tried crafting it from the list when I'm in my inventory and it is unlocked on the Catalogue section of the menu but it's not showing up in my crafting list from the inventory.... And I cannot find any help on Google for this problem either.

Is there something I'm doing wrong or has this mission bugged? Please any help will be greatly appreciated, this is really frustrating me, it's why I stopped playing 2yrs ago 😩

What are these weirdly similar bases? [Question]

Hi all, got a question about strange player bases I started to notice when checking them out via anomaly.

They always have a biofuel reactor, teleport, construction research unit and the "house" size usually is 2x2 or 3x1 and made out of new timber blocks. Occasionally they have a portable or medium refiner, small decoration or a storage container.

Why are people building these and why do they look all the same? Afaik daily "build an outpost" missions require you to build slightly different structures and bases overall are larger. Maybe these are build for one of the early game quests that I don't remember and then left abandoned?

Should I continue my old save? [Question]

Hello,

I'm looking for help with coming back to this game after 2/3 years. Last time I played was in 2019 and I did around 55 hours.

I completed a lot of quests, had a base with growing plants and even a freighter. I can't remember exactly where I was in the main story but I decided to keep Artemis(?) leaving in that simulation. I was doing something with portals and inscriptions but it was confusing at the time. I also had more than a million units if i remember correctly.

Should I continue that save? I don't think it's worth because I don't remember a lot of stuff. On the other hand I'm not too fond of creating a new save because I'd have to go through everything I experienced again, including building a base and all those quests and it can be a bit boring.

Thanks in advance.

Ship Spawns [Question]

So I am an avid user of the coordinate exchange, but after the update I’ve had some questions about ship spawning. Obviously a large amount of posts over on the exchange reference ships found before Outlaws, and some really cool ones. I’ve noticed some of the systems that these posts are from are now pirate systems. With the added ship class, does this remove some of the old ships from the spawn list to make room for the solars, or are they in addition to the old list?

Random base computer? [Question]

While exploring a planet only I have been to, I came across one of those round, flat areas that thing spawn in. You know, wrecked ships, little outposts, etc. The places you can log waypoints at. Anyway, there is a black and blue base computer there. Interacting with it allows me to claim the area for a base, but it cannot be picked up or deleted. Is this some kind of a mission?

Get Nexus items for free without spending Quiksilver (exploit?) [Information]

Last night I realized an odd potential exploit that I haven’t been able to find mention of on Reddit or elsewhere online. You can get items from the Nexus store for free without spending your quiksilver, but you do need to have enough quiksilver to purchase whatever item you want.

Literally all you need to do is be in the nexus, exit your ship to create an auto-save, then simply buy whatever you want from the Nexus and then reload your auto save. You should have recovered back any quiksilver you spent on that item. However now if you go back to the Quiksilver store, that item should say “Available” instead of listing its price. You can now claim this item for free and it will cost you no quiksilver to do so.

Not sure how long this “trick” has been around but given how simple it is I am fairly positive lots of people have stumbled on this. But, I didn’t see any other posts about it so I figured I’d make this to let others know.

Happy shopping!

By the way, I don’t normally condone using expoits in this particular game because it can 100% lead to diminishing your own enjoyment in many ways, but I see nothing wrong with bypassing annoying time-gates like the quiksilver system. If someone played the game every day and did every single nexus mission when it was available, it’d still take many many months to attain all jet pack/Ship trails, helmets, Traveler heads, etc. Not to mention several times I’ve pulled into the anamoly ready to turn in a mission only for the game to bug out in some random way, making me have to reload and do the mission over again.

Is There A Method To Go Beyond The 1000u Vertical Limit? [Question]

Following is a quote from the Base Extension Website Page of Xaine's World =>

"I say about you being inside it when building because the build camera function, which is just fantastic, works on your player position for judging this and not the camera position, meaning that even if you extend to the full 1000u, you can still build a bit further.

By placing your character on the edge, then entering the build camera, you can then move a little further out and then even build a bit further than that and still have it count as that one base, though be warned, that the load distance for base parts and such is 2000u, which is around 8 minutes on foot, so if you are at the absolute edge of the boundary and have something the opposite side past the edge, it will not be loaded, which can be troublesome in some circumstances."

This is on the third paragraph or section.

https://www.xainesworld.com/base-extension/

Now, I really don't understand this technique as I have tried it and maybe the hard limit has been modified and locked at 1000u but there is absolutely no way to go beyond 1000u even on the ground using a single Base Computer as soon as you reach 1000u and decide to go beyond even 1 step the build menu for the base parts deactivates and you can only place Portables. If you stand just inside at the boundary of the edge and try to put a Base Part outside the 1000u boundary, the Base Part turns red and cannot be placed. So what is this situation that Xaine is trying to describe over here?

Can you repair Artemis' ship and use it yourself? [Question]

I fixed a couple of the systems and when I came back to it they were broken again.

Though I don't know if that's because the ship was still on fire and taking continual damage or if the ship will always reload into a broken state no matter what

Blocked on Derelict Freighters - New Bug? [Bug]

Hi all,

I have scavenged dozens of derelict freighters previously, but recently I've come across a couple where I am blocked by a door and can't complete the salvage. Here's a screen snap.

Blocked Door

As you can see I had to shoot away some slime to clear the doorway. When the last band snaps the door indicator is supposed to turn green and the door slides open, but this isn't happening. I can shoot with the scatter blaster all over the door at this point and it won't budge.

There aren't any other doors that allow continuing into the freighter, so the only option appears to be to move on and leave the Captain's Log, Expansion Bulkhead, etc. behind.

This is the second time it's happened. I've started skipping the solar systems that have the slime and the exploding pods on their derelicts, in order to avoid this. If this is a common bug, I haven't found much evidence for it so far.

Is there a way to get these stuck doors open? Thanks!

What fps does NMS run on the Xbox Series S? [Question]

I run it on performance mode, have a 120hz monitor. Still can get pretty laggy and can’t render too far out. Obviously it’s a massive game with a ton to render, got me thinking if they’ll ever be able to get a stable 60fps?

Salvaged Frigate Modules: WHERE?! [Question]

I've run about 5-8 derelict freighters in hopes of looting modules (I really just want to be able to warp my freighter to any color starsystem so I'm trying to unlock warp upgrades) and I've collected about 3 or so modules on the first run, one on the second, and none since. Am I doing something wrong? I've searched the internet for data and everything seems to conflict or lead to dead ends. I'm hoping someone here can help. Thanks in advance, Interlopers!

For people out there riding the struggle bus towards triggering "Under a Rebel Star" [Information]

Suffer no more.

After hours searching for help and trying to trigger the quest by pulsing up and down every system i could find (and then triggering the quest in 5 minutes on a different save file, thus confirming some kind of problem), here is what solved it, gather your courage and get into JSON editing.

BUT DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK, only god knows if what i did fixed this quest and glitched a buttload of others or not

First make a backup of your save, go to AppData\Roaming\HelloGames\NMS and make a backup of it's contents. Now get the save editor and load your problematic save and under the dropdown menu "edit" you'll pick "edit the raw JSON".

Search for PlayerStateData/MissionProgress/ (and it might take a while to find it so have patience and under") on the string "Progress" set it to 1, then the quest folder right under it should be another quest named "^PIRATES1" where you'll set Progress to 2.

Then scroll down until you find CurrentMissionID, where you'll type EXACTLY "^PIRATES1", under it you'll see CurrentMissionSeed and leave it at 0, then under PreviousMissionID you'll type "^PIRATES1" again and right under it on PreviousMissionSeed you also leave it at 0 as well, clsoe the editor, hit "save changes" and load your game.

MAYBE my quest was already triggered and I never got the coordinates like some people have reported around here, so this definitely fixed and now i have the quest showing, or maybe i was insanely unlucky and never got the trigger, at this point who cares, i don't.

Thanks to the steamcommunity post from years ago that mentioned using editing the raw JSON to reset a quest.

I Hate this Mission [Question]

Okay guys, so heres the gist. I grinded.. grind... ground? I got a Void Egg. I started doing the Starbirth mission, and assembled ALL the pieces, even though having to wait multiple irl days for them to mature was a real pain in my Gek-neck. Now Im on this part where the egg says "THE HUNTER // THE REFLECTION // THE HUNTER // THE SPIRAL OF REALITY // THE STAR OVER WATER //THE ASCENDING ORB // THE OBSCURED COMPANION // THE HUNTER // THE LOWLY INSECT // THE ANOMOLY // THE SAILOR // THE OCEAN KING // EUCLID EUCLID EUCLID"

Now, This may seem like a stupid question but Im kinda new to this game and have no idea what to do. I want my living ship, but at this point Im kinda tired of crafting Warp Fuel and need some serious help from a more experienced player. Can anyone walk me through this part pf the mission, maybe even sign on and show me what Im supposed to do? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Technology Components Vanishing [Bug]

I exchanged a multi-tool and before I did, I dismantled the tech. When I was installing the tech on the new one, it said I didn't have any of the materials at all. I bought some of the parts and started installing, but was missing a few pieces. Warp to another station, get the materials, open the tool up... and about half of what I had already installed was gone, all wiring looms and a few computers.

The only thing I could find similar was from 4 years ago and was patched out at the time. Anyone else having this happen or have a solution?

Also, I got killed a couple of times earlier today and lost my entire ship's inventory, figure that was due to destruction or something, but now I wonder.

3 Questions regarding the new solar ship [Question]

Hello fellas, I have 3 few questions regarding the new solar ship: What's the maximum cargo space? What's the benefit of the ship? The wiki says that it has a better pulse engine and launch system, but it's quite ambiguous What are the demerits? For example hauler ships are slower than most, and fighter ships have a lower cargo size

PD: Sry my poor english, it's not my first language, it's late and I'm sleepy
