Please make an option to automatically craft components [Suggestion]

So what I mean is that we should be able to craft technology or repair it without the whole pushing each piece at a time. I get that it makes it more hands on or whatever the word is, but for me it's super annoying and typically I mess up and leave the menu before finishing.

Cross save? [Question]

I have had a decent account of almost 50 hours on my Xbox account but I gave my console to my brother. I don’t want to restart cause how much time I have in that save and was wondering if there is some way to transfer all my progress. Thanks let me know guys.

Any speculations/hopes for update 20? [Discussion]

I know it's a bit early, we just got Outlaws not too relatively long ago, but that said, I'm still excited to see what comes next, especially since Outlaws which finally introduced a sort of evil/criminal option.

Personally, I think they're getting ready to drop whatever it is they have planned for the station overrides and if they do, I hope they at least have an option that goes along/coincides with the last update, Outlaws, and lets you engage in more criminal stuff, or even without the override, just have more criminal/evil options. One idea I think would be cool are criminal versions of the overseers who come to their base terminals, have like new terminals for activities like dealing space drugs, one for unit laundering or have a guy/terminal who can organize missions where you take your freighter and subjugate nearby star systems into paying you protection money. Just getting to run an intergalactic criminal empire sounds so awesome to me. If I get to one day live in No Man's Sky as a Gek version of Tony Montana with a mansion on a verdant world with some kinda shark-tiger pet dealing in a version of space cocaine that can make a Vykeen feel like he could rip the nads off a Biological Horror, all of my dreams will have come true.

Glyphs [Question]

Economy Crashing - Cobalt [Question]

So, I tried to crash my economy using cobalt, I’m in a 3 star economic system.

I got about 42k cobalt and sold it all, made a few mil but realised purchasing it back and reselling it actually lost me money. So I screwed up.

So I’m starting again and aiming to have about 100k ionised cobalt (and subsequently whatever that translates too in terms of cobalt)

There is still about 20k cobalt in my space station as I can’t afford to buy it all back and still purchase enough oxygen to make more.

Will this still work?

Also, final question (I’m a noob) can I purchase Carbon/Metal anywhere once I’ve made millions, want to build a big base

my attempt at getting a walker brain. [Discussion]

I tried to land on a planet, while approaching said planet I got scanned by a security ship. That ship then attacked me, I destroyed it. Only to have it replaced by new ship attacking me over and over again. They just wouldn't leave me alone. They also disabled my warpengine so no quick getaway.

I only wanted to get a walker brain so I could build a conflictscanner and find the pirate systems for solar ship. That should have taken only minutes. I was all enthousiastic about trying the latest update. But this sucked all the fun out of it and I don't even care about getting a solar ship anymore.

Player bases between difficulty levels [Question]

Hi all! I am getting a ps5 soon and I'm intending to start a new game. This has me so excited as I am a day 1 player, but stopped playing around the Visions update. Spent hundreds of hours playing prior to that and did not stop because of getting bored by the game, rather life got in the way.

Anyways, due to last 2 updates in particular, I feel like NMS is now finally a complete game experience if starting a new save. But therein lies my conundrum: My favorite part in NMS is definitely exploration. And with so many impressive player bases scattered across Euclid, I feel like for an explorer there is nothing better than to know that there is a chance, no matter how small, that they will stumble upon something majestic and player made.

Having said that, I also like my games to pose at least somewhat of a challenge and Casual just simply doesn't offer any whatsoever. My preferred mode would then be permadeath or survival at least.

Going through the internetz, however, I can't for the life of me get a confident and definitive answers related to bases and game modes, so if anyone can give me definitives on one question and a guestimate on my other, I would be super grateful.

So: 1. Are player bases shared between game modes?

If no: Are most of the impressive builds made in creative or casual? How is the base building community on survival/permadeath, can you expect to see impressive stuff there on ocassion as well?

Really bad performance with good PC [Bug]

Specs:

2x8 16gb ddr4 3000

3060ti FE (OC)

i7 8700k (OC)

My game can stutter in certain areas pretty bad and the overall performance is just not that good. My GPU usage also fluctuates a lot and I know it's not my GPU as I've tested it on other games and it's fine. Does anyone else with a pretty solid set up suffer with these problems?

Derelict Freighter Construction Part Schematics [Question]

Are these obtained in a set order?

Having previously never spent too much time running Derelicts I've only ever seen the same 3 parts appear first, so I feel like the answer is Yes...

However I've recently been running them to finally get the schematics and upgrades etc and I got two schematics drop on one freighter. I then got stuck in a corner and couldn't escape to get back to my ship and had to reload, running more freighters I've had other schematics drop but not the two I lost on that run; so I checked the catalogue and both of the schematics I lost are showing up as discovered but without the icon that says I can build them.

So I'm kinda worried I've bugged out my game and can't get those unlocked now? :/

#

No Mans Sky Concept [Suggestion]

Ok so there is a new category of ships which are bigger and have interior where there can be a computer where you can access the Trading Terminal and the outlaw missions from inside your ship A new way to travel long distances so if you select a destination really far away it goes to the furthest system then warps from there so on but you have a bed in your ship so you can skip the travel time and new weapons like sniper shotguns not just your multi tool then you can have a weapon locker and appearance customiser i think this will be cool since i love star wars and think it will be cool and we could get a razor crest looking ship or a millennium falcon

#

Another Concept [Suggestion]

So we have settlements which are very cool but i think we need like big city’s like there is at least one a solar system there can be loads like coursant you have every thing that you would in a space station but much bigger you can buy a apartment or house interact with in game life maybe do some policing with NPC criminals and maybe some robberies i think it would add a lot to NMS

Missing ships and inventory [Question]

Hi, so i joined a friend's game to help him along. So joined in multiplayer, gave some itwms, showed how to buy and scrap ships, he left, now i exited and went to my freighter and i noticed my ship inventory was gone and it had reverted back to an A class from an upgraded S class. Then on my freighter 2 of my other ships are gone. I reloaded to my regular save. And its the same, half my stuffs gone and ships are still gone. Any ideas on how to get everything back?

Weird glitch with power cables not allowing connection. [Bug]

I ran my power cables along a daisy chain of light boxes from the electrical source to my industrial miner. It was working for a second, but then when I added another industrial miner, it suddenly broke the connection. I deleted the second miner and cables so it was back to the way it was 2 seconds prior, and then the power wouldn’t connect. I discovered that the power is going to each light box along the way perfectly fine, but then when I get to the last connection on the industrial miner, the connection will show red and invalid. Reloading got it to work once, but then adding a second miner broke the whole thing a second time, even after deleting it. It’s also worth mentioning that when connecting the cable on the first end, it looks all weird and spazzes out. I’ve also watched cables blip in and out of existence…

I setup a very large active indium mining operation on Xbox years ago, but am now playing on ps5, so I’m no stranger to building stuff like this. Anybody else experience this problem?

#

New player, honest opinion. [Discussion]

This latest expedition is my first time trying them out as well as the main game and I must say, Destiny much?

Gosh, the entire play through doesn’t feel like it has much story line to it and one of the rendezvous points was located INSIDE of a volcano. Did they not test that before release? Come to find out id have to fly close to the volcano, land on the launch pad then get on a creature and find a ‘hole in the wall’ to get out of the volcano. If I didn’t have the resources to create creature pellets I would’ve been screwed, stuck in a glitched section that is a requirement to complete the Expedition. Not only that, every mission is a laid out in a ‘go here do that’ style which feels repetitive even if they are different missions.

Maybe if the expedition reward was something cool like a new ship or freighter I’d be more invested but nope, it’s a knock off Destiny cape. Maybe that’s why this reminds me so much of the destiny grind. Repetitive and boring.

Overall rating on the expedition 3/10 and that’s being generous. I’ll stick with ship hunting until the juice is worth the squeeze as far as the rewards go.

Hello Interlopers! Has anyone noticed a glitch on their bases? [Question]

I'm playing PS5, normal. I've been really having fun with base building lately, however there seems to be a graphical glitch I don't seem able to get rid of. It occurs on all technology such as mineral/gas extractors, mineral storage, exocraft stations, save points, bio domes and corridors. The colors just seem to glitch in and out as you walk around the base.

It's not game breaking, but you know it's really aggravating when you're trying to make a base look nice.

Question about the last mission to travel to the Living Ship? [Question]

I'm not sure if I've screwed myself over or not, I have no recollection of where I received the last part of the questline and unsure if I am supposed to be on the other side of the Galaxy because I've already traveled ≤2000 Light-years in my freighter with no target system in sight. I have been unable to find a reset button so I'm not sure if I'm actually in the right place for it or not?

For context I have the Egg, Mature Brain, Heart, Shell, and Singularity

Beware Neutron Cannon [Information]

When searching through a Derelict Freighter that has lots of hanging pulsating bulbous fungal pods (forgot the official name), it's very handy to use the Neutron Cannon. A few shots, and the little shooting cyclops are easily eliminated. HOWEVER, if you shoot the door to the next room and destroy the locking tendrils, you may freeze the door shut. I wondered the first time I did it, and I confirmed it last night. Rats!

Underground creatures gone? [Question]

OK, I believe something is bugged. I have been doing the thing where you find all creatures on each planet, upload, and get a title. I got all ten ranks yesterday. However, there are multiple planets where the log cannot be completed. All of them have creatures listed as "rare/uncommon/common, underground, always active". Nothing spawns underground.

I have even brought a save point deep into the bowels of a planet, saved, exited the game, and reloaded in an attempt to force these things to spawn. No go. In this case, nothing spawned at all according to my visor, until I was up near the surface, then a bunch of green paw icons showed up above me, but no red dots.

Is the game currently broken?

#

What killed me? [Question]

Minding my own business, in a menu, on a world with no sentinels, got shot (I think?) to death.

Then black screen with the quote that proceeded to crash the game.

What the hell killed me? I had no chance to even exit the menu and run a few feet before I died.

#

Returning after a long absence. [Question]

Just like the title says I'm returning from a long time away from the game and to say I'm rusty is an understatement. I'm struggling to get back into the swing of things and have missed a lot. Pets were out about a week before I moved on to other things.

Are there any good resources to catch up on the I think 3 updates since? I'm also trying to build a new ship and am pretty rusty on that as well, so any advice would really be appreciated.

about expeditions [Question]

Hello guys, i have a question about expeditions, i have around 1 month playing this game and i am having a blast but i recently find out that a previous expedition they release the normandy for mass effect so my question is there is schedule or plan yo re release Expedition content?

#

Community Expedition. Cannot progress, any ideas? [Question]

I recently picked up the game and decided to try blast through the expedition despite there not being much time left. But during phase 2 I have encountered a possibly game breaking bug/incident.

During phase 2 you have to go find a crashed freighter on a planet. All good, I make my way there. Only to find that around 60% of the freighter (distress beacon I need to interact with included) is clipped through an un-mineable volcano meaning I cannot reach the objective.

I've tried to reload. I've tried to jump away/come back and nothing changes.

Am I screwed or does someone have another idea? The only thing I could maybe think of is joining a MP game somewhere and hoping it changes location?

Thanks in advance.

Interested in this game… never even looked at it before though [Discussion]

So, I heard one day that Epic gives out free games all the time. Downloaded the launcher, checked it occasionally, none caught my eye until Elite: Dangerous showed up. It had a spaceship and a planet on the thumbnail so I checked it out being the space nerd I am, and holy fuck it’s great. Thrust me into loving space sim games and rekindled my love for space in general.

I have absolutely no expectations for this game. I heard it was shit when it came out, but that it got WAY better and now it’s great.

Questions:

How much does it cost now?

How grindy is it?

For anyone who’s played Elite, is the flight/combat just as satisfying?

What’s up with that post of someone building McDonald’s and shit, it almost reminds me of Minecraft?

Will it run alright on a Dell G5 laptop with a 1660ti mobile GPU? I’d prefer minimum 30fps on lowest graphics, content with 45fps/mid graphics, overjoyed with 60fps/high graphics.

So. What do?

atlas path continues? [Question]

I have the Remembrance and Star Seed. The Atlas Path Log says to keep warping and finding the Atlas. So there is a quest beyond Remembrance and Star Seed? Because when I activated the pillars in another Atlas thing, it just had me create a Star Seed again. The same text appeared with no 2nd Star Seed in inventory... So perhaps I visited the same Atlas twice? There were 2 red Atlas diamonds on the galaxy map for that system. What am I missing?

Is there no way for me to complete this quest without restarting?

Concept: Player Trade Terminals [Discussion]

(Preface

This is a concept in it's infancy, that only came to me in primordial form just minutes ago, so don't view this as an end-all-be-all concept - I'm coming up with this as I type, and this is open for thoughtful discussion and tweaking.)

I was thinking about all the folks who build fantastic structures and community centers, who post their coordinates on nmscoordinates or in here for others to enjoy. Personally I'd love to see some of these but I have so much I want to do in game I never really get around to it, and that makes me sad - I think we should encourage innovation and support the most artistic and driven members of the nms experience. So, what would make me do that? PLAYER TRADE TERMINALS!

What would that look like?

a unique terminal to be placed in a player-owned base, that provides barter opportunities for direct trade.

How would that work?

Here's where I need your ingenuity and many-folded brains: Perhaps you choose a limited amount of barterable items per terminal, or per habitable base - Lets use one good as an example - Say I want Activated Indium. I select Incoming resource: Activated Indium, and a Quantity desired from within my own terminal (with a max cap for single requests) from a screen that looks much like the resources tab in your own catalogue. Upon selection, the Outgoing tab appears and shows approximate resources equivalencies, with those resources that fall at the same discovery level or below (This dissuades the possibility of an un-travelled player gaining resources above his level). These resources (or rare sellables only good for isk?) are listed with a market-appropriate exchange rate based on average value within the nearest 8 or 10 market based solar systems (npc stations).

For players surrounded by 2 or 1 star systems who love their chosen planet, that exchange/value rate of that Activated Indium will obviously...

Voice of freedom quest advice? [Question]

Hello! I started the Voice of freedom quest the other day and... well, I cannot go past the part where Outlaws attack you as you approach the delerict freighter. They absolutely destroy me and I barely do any damage to them. Thing is, I also never fully focused on spaceship combat, unless necessary and so far, I still haven't died - until now.

What modules for weapons and defense should I go for? Anything specific? And should I use a fighter ship for this specifically? Because I have just one, and it's the very first starter ship.

Updates I'd still like to see for this game in the future... [Discussion]

In no particular order:

Better storms: Have actual super-cell storm systems that can spawn hurricane-like winds, or tornadoes that can destroy environments and damage structures. The current storms we have are all very similar, with different names and screen effects, but no real consequences other than "refilling" the bar, so you don't take damage. Imagine a super-cell storm that could be capable of spawning a tornado, or damaging winds, it'd give another sense of danger.

Destructible ships: To follow that, I've always wanted an update that adds destruction to ships upon taking damage. Imagine you're in a space fight and your wings get damaged, causing you to crash-land onto a planet. Or, you're flying through a storm and your ship gets struck by lighting, causing all systems to fail momentarily. And I'm not just talking about faux damage that happens when you go through a black hole. I mean actual, cosmetic damage, to give it more meaning than just "fixing" something within some UI.

Sand Planets: So we're all probably aware that Sean doesn't want to add gas giants (which, is really sad because they could serve as really cool "cloud city" type planets, like from Star Wars), but what about a new biome for planets? We saw a sand-like planet in this video, and to this day I've never come across a planet that had sand-like dunes like that planet. With these planets, perhaps they could even add a new type of storm, the dust storm.

Other types of exotic planets: We have a good variety of exotic planets currently, but most just add interesting types of fauna/flora to these planets, and not much else. In Avengers: Infinity War, the planet Titan has those "pockets" of gravity that are unstable compared to other areas of the planets, that idea could translate well to some current exotic planets we have already....

Bought it at launch, played ~60h after NEXT, but… where to start now? [Discussion]

So, bought the game at launch. A lot of the “bad press” kept me from enjoying the game at that time, but came back when NEXT launched and it instantly became one of my favorite games ever!!

I started playing the storyline and got really interested in it but… life got in the way, and gaming really took a back burner in my life.

While I don’t exactly have a lot of time these days, between work and family life, I do want to get back into the game but I feel overwhelmed both by the updates and by what I had already achieved in my save that I simply don’t remember how!!

So, my question to you all: should I… - Keep playing the current save and eventually it’ll all come back to me, OR - Start a new save, be pushed back a few hours of storyline and gameplay but get to immerse myself back in the story…

Anyway, huge fan of this game, even if I don’t play it as much as I want to! Mad props to Hello Games for their persistence and love for their creation and their community! <3

Happy voyages, fellow interloper!

Alternative low stairs or was i tripping? [Question]

I wish I'd bothered to take a screenshot but I failed, I thought the answer would be easier to find at the time!

So today i visited a few bases in the weekend mission system and one of them had stairs which were clearly some kind of metal but didn't look anything like the normal stairs wood/stone/alloy. It also didn't look like a player made set of stairs using smaller components, mainly because it was immaculate. I've never seen anything like it and searching has just got me posts asking about the interior stairs for cube buildings which these were not.

Anyone have any insight?

Incase someone visited this base too: The base in question was built on a trading post and these stairs started on the walkways either side of the main building to a platform up and around the back. It's a similar style to what I use, will upload a photo of what my layout looks like if needed tomorrow!

How Do I Fix These Glass Rooms? [Question]

At some point over the years, one of the patches broke the interconnectedness of one of my bases using glass, probably because it was on one of the islands with abandoned buildings that briefly got sent underwater. After much fiddling I was able to fix all but two of the room connections, as can be seen circled in this image.

There's a line of glass rooms above the highest one, but a floor appears on that last step as the higher circle shows. And I'm trying to connect the horizontal back towards the lower bio-dome; the one above it fits and works, but something between there and the lower one is putting a wall between them, no matter how I shuffle and delete the rooms.

Any ideas folks? Thanks!

Lag/stuttering fix? [Question]

Used to play this quite a bit about a year ago, had some lag when i first started but the game ran as smooth as butter after I changed a setting in the MXML-file.

Recently wanted to get back into it but the lag/stuttering is even worse now and the fix I did a year ago doesnt seem to work anymore.

Anyone else that had the same issue and found a fix for it?

Thanks in advance.

Eve players looking for a new home [Question]

Aye NMS bros , ccp games has kinda dicked us over for the last time. More than a few of us have considered coming over to your pond, but we’d likely need Hello to expand quite a bit. We know our reputation isn’t nice but we’re loyal to our platform, and you would likely get a big boost out of it.

What are your feelings?

Thank you to the people gifting me in the anomaly. [Discussion]

Twice in the last couple days I had people gift me an item with 50,000,000 and just now 25 items worth 1,250,000 each. I'm about 20 hours into my first permanent death playthrough (I only had about 57 on my old play through a couple years ago). I'm a fan of the struggle so I wont be selling these items but my girlfriend is going to love them. She is a bigger fan of the exploration aspect of the game so now she'll be able to buy the ship she wants. Thanks again and keep being an awesome community.

VR Performance - Great Framerate...Weird Flickering [Question]

I'll go ahead and get the specs out of the way:

Ryzen 7, Vega 56, 32GB DDR4

I'll preface this by saying that every other VR game runs pretty dang smooth (Skyrim, FO4, Contractors, H3VR, The Forest, American Truck Simulator, and Assetto Corsa). Heck, even NMS "runs smooth", it's just this constant...flickering? I initially thought it was an anti-aliasing flicker that I've seen in other titles, but it's...not? TAA, FXAA, no AA, 1.0 Super Sampling, 2.0 Super Sampling, 0.5 Render Resolution, 2.0 Render Resolution, Motion Smoothing, Advanced SS Filter...you name it, I've tried it. Still flickering on this title only. Runs GREAT! Even looks great! Just FLICKERING. If I had to describe it: It's almost like it's reprojecting a small image for a split second. Is that ASW? Is this "reprojection" that folks are talking about? I don't see it in any other title, regardless of settings. Is it my AMD settings? It runs so great...I just want to not have a seizure from all the weird patterns popping up.

A few other things I've tried: V-Sync on/off. Edited the XML files to change the cores (tried "0" and "0", "4" and "2", "4" and "4", etc..) no flickering fix. Any weird unorthodox fixes out there that might help? Or something I'm overlooking? I've forced ASW, turned it off, all sorts of stuff.

Are M&K flight controls horrendous for anyone else? [Question]

I'm used to stuff like WarThunder where you move the mouse and it takes a second but the plane turns to where your aiming, but in this game it seems like the mouse needs to be recentered after every movement which is just a pain in the ass.

Improving the build system [Suggestion]

No Man's Sky is a great game and all, but it does lack in terms of building. Not build variety, but the system dedicated to building. For example, as of right now when building, for instance, a wall, the game will look for all snapping points, making it hard to build a straight wall. Whereas in games such as Satisfactory the build system prioritizes the snaps with parts that make sense to be snapped with (Wall with wall, foundation with foundation, machine with machine). Another thing I noticed is that when building the shorter version of the walls it's almost impossible to snap a normal wall above or below it. Also, please please please allow us to snap decorative pieces, storage crates, refiners and whatsoever to normal floors.

Plus, why the fuck do lights have such a small range? With a 2-walls high room the ceiling light's light doesn't get to the floor.

Hope they will fix this issues, or maybe it's just me and it is fine how it is.

Planet changed radically on second visit [Question]

This is just a general question about other peoples experience.

After one of the Atlas missions dumped me on a planet, I did a brief inventory of weather, minerals, flora and fauna; it was a mineral planet with mild weather and thought it would make a nice forward operating base. I set up a small base with solar panels, batteries and transporter, left for my primary base to get some supplies.

Upon my return the planet was radically changed; weather, terrain, flora, fauna and had changed to a radioactive planet. The base was on the same general topography but nearly everything else on the planet was different.

Anyone else have this happen to them?

Just wondering how people go about finding there perfect home planet and what they look for. After finding out a friend of mine just plops down on any old planet to set up home I told him how I go about finding my home planet and he said it was to "OCD"! I follow these steps when finding my new home world. ( I'll use my current save and what I'm looking for as example)

1 is a yellow star system 2 is a gek system 3 dose it have water 4 is it t3 economy 5 is it T1 conflict

All yes warp y system and look at the planet's of not move on to next system on map

After warping I look at the planet's and of find a paradise I land and start the next steps

6 is the weather ok 7 do I like the look of the planet and is there non if that colour filters 8 is there a nice settlement to own 9 is there an ocean as wanting sea view this time 10 do I like the flora and fauna

If ok I look for place to call hoke of I can't find the perfect place back to number one

How to change/upgrade building parts? [Question]

Hi so I am quite new to the game & playing on console & totally loving it!! I have made a mini base on-top of a trading post using stone floors & archways & some basic pieces like a portal, solar panel & storage cube etc. I am now wanting to swap over to glass cubes for the base design, but am unsure how to do that? If I delete my current floors & walls will that make my storage cube & portal disappear? Or will they be floating in the air? I was hoping I could edit the current walls to swap/upgrade to the cubes, but doesn't seem I can sadly. Also it seems like the cubes are powered? If I want 18 cubes for my build will that need heaps of solar panels & batteries? Or is just a couple fine?

Any help appreciated! Thank you

the crafting system needs an overhaul [Suggestion]

I don't If I'm the only one who thinks this. Often when I'm build large projects ( hotspot farms for example) it is so tedious to craft the stuff you need (600+ metal plates for example) as you have to click X amount of times to. On Xbox thus is especially tedious and I believe needs either a way to type in the amount / go up in higher multiples per click or an automated way to craft thing's. If automated I would make is so one machine could craft 1 recipe like a refiner but be slow so I have choices slow and automated or fast but manual

It got to be too much. It's time to relocate my main base. Anyone have to move for reasons like this?

Questions about the expeditions [Question]

Hi!

Could someone please share some info regarding the expedition mode?

It looks fun, but I've only seen a short article and probably one of the official trailers about it. I'm a bit curious, although I haven't touched the game for like 4+ years. I just restarted it from scratch and I'm fairly at the beginning. I'm definitely a rookie.

As far as I understand the expedition is a kind of community experience and you start it from a new save. Do you start from zero - okay, I found answer to this one? How to imagine the community part of it? How much time does it require? Time is not really on my side, so if it requires hours of play time a day I probably have to pass on it. Is it newcomer friendly?

I would appreciate if someone could share a brief description about the expedition experience - I mean if you have some experience with it, you might also add what you like and don't like about it. Thanks. ^^

150 hours gone (Possibly) [Question]

Long story short, motherboard died in the middle of a game and after several long months of fighting with Asus I got a replacement motherboard. I plugged in my SSD and it wouldn't boot. So I grabbed a new SSD and cloned it and the clone didn't work so I put a fresh windows install on my new SSD and booted up. The OG SSD is still accessible so I launched Steam from it and did the update for Frontier but after launching my game, my saves didn't appear.

Think there's a disconnect inside of Steam or did I lose absolutely everything? NMS in the Steam cloud only shows like 7kb. I found my in game screenshots but haven't found my save data yet. If worse comes to worse can I contact HelloGames?

I mean my current personal exploration mission was to discover untouched solar systems and explore each planet. I don't want to lose all of that exploration.

Idea / Discussion: Obvious Mechanics for Ship Customization [Suggestion]

Disclaimer: this is just my own idea and has nothing to do with any plans from Hello Games.

I was zoning out in the shower this morning and had an interesting idea about how HG could implement ship customization if they wanted to. One approach to this might be as follows: Create a area in the freighter hangar bay for ship customization and an interface to use it. Ship parts are unlocked as blueprints, just like most things in the game. Ships can only be edited within their ship type. So only Fighter parts on Fighters, only Explorer parts on Explorers, etc. Players unlock ship part blueprints by scrapping a ship they own in the Space Station. So, in order for me to get the parts on a given ship, I need to scrap it. Then, those blueprints are permanently unlocked and can be applied to other ships of the same type. Ship colors can be unlocked with nanites and edited at the same interface.

This way of giving players the ability to edit ships is intuitive to me because it relies upon systems that are similar to those already in the game / that we're used to using. I also think this way of doing ship customization balances the fun of ship hunting and ability to customize ships.

Curious what you all think about this, and you think it is as intuitive / balanced as it seems to me.

Three players, same household? [Question]

I’m about 25 hours in, and loving the game. I waited too long to try it! But it is available on Gamepass Ultimate right now so I thought I’d give it a try.

The game works great on all of them, syncing our accounts amid saves and everything, but no matter what system we launch it from, my account has to be signed in first before they play it under their Xbox gamer tag, meaning that any other systems get kicked off.

Do I need to buy the game two more times for us to play together??

Questions about base building and multiple extractors [Question]

How do you manage multiple base with extractors ?

When I played before I grinded planets to find multiple A or S minerals/gaz/electrical depots and try to connect them with long pipelines to a central place (using multiple bases)

Is it a good way to do that ? Or would you keep one base with is own electricity production and teleporters ?

Do you generally have one main base with everything needed and multiple "extractors" bases ?

am i playing no mans wrong? [Question]

I bought nms for my friend so we could explore the galaxy together.

I dont want to progress through the story eithout him, as it would spoil the content.

However, we are plahing permadeath, and this man has had his character for 3 real life days, and has only completed up to the hyperdrive mission, where he has endlessly been smuggling goods.

He had 20mil, then logged off. He had 34 mil the next day, then logged off. Then i asked him if he was gonna do missions, he said "ill do it right after i setup this trade route" then he was at 44 mil and logged off.

He literally just wants to watch his units go up, he has a freighter he hasnt touched yet - but i garruntee hes going to only look for S class ships and svrape up more mils to nake up for what he spent on fleet ships.

So can i ask the community this - will we unlock more features to the game by progressing past "awakenings" because after 20+ hours on a single character waiting for him to do more than jump back and fourth between stars with contraband while im satisfied with my 9 mil makes me wanna solo the whole game

How would you feel about an RP Mode? [Discussion]

I've kinda had this idea for a few years, basically you have the choice of being completely unable to change your Species but you start off with higher standing and knowing the entire language of the chosen species. Obviously this should be optional for those who want it but it would be cool to have a new mode meant for more RP purposes where you start off as your desired species in a special start, Korvax get a Research ship and spawn at a research station, Gek start with a Hauler near a trade platform, and the Vy'Keen could start with a Fighter near a Sentinel location.

I just think it would be cool to actually feel like the species you're playing as by knowing their language from the start and getting a different start. What do you guys think?

Melee weapons, who would want to see them added someday? (Ie a stun/shock baton to pacify hostile wildlife or disable a sentinal) we have the butt stroke but it’s sucks for damage [Discussion]

Melee weapons could be a pretty awesome addition, i dont mean anything to crazy tho, i was thinking things like maybe a stun baton to pacify hostile wildlife (especially when attacked near sentinels so you don’t turn sentinels hostile by killing the animal) the baton could knock it out or shock it to make it flee, and also the shock of the stun baton could do extra damage to robotics so it could be used against sentinels

A vykeen like dagger would also be pretty good and lore friendly.

Also one that I’m 50/50 on but has been mentioned in game in a few situations when i was scrapping ships and it mentioned what happened to the pilot was the plasma sword one crashed ships beacon talked about.

I’m not one to wanna turn the game into a big melee fest but a few options to replace our default multi tool butt stroke would be nice, what you guys think

System with all colored metals [Question]

I know each color metal coordinates to a system color on the galaxy map. However...is there any possible way a system can have all three metals (cadmium, emeril, and indium) in it?

Just started playing again and I'd really like to find a system with all three gas hotspots and all metals. I feel like it's not possible, but thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Giant Sand Worm Eggs? [Question]

Hello! Today I was sitting at my base and a sand worm jumped out of the ground and over my base! (First time seeing this) I was in AWE! So the research began… it looks like from what I’m reading you can get these as a pet? But I also read that it can only come from eggs that were part of an event or something…? Is this true? And also if it is, is there a way that eggs are shareable? AND IF SO! Does anyone have an egg they can spare?

Thanks for any info :]

Slightly more frequent frigate/space battles in systems around pirate-controlled systems. [Suggestion]

If this is already a thing, then nvm, but as far as I can tell from trying to research it, it isn't, and if it isn't it's something that would make sense as well as make trying to farm frigates slightly less of a hassle. Generally, it would also make pirate-controller systems more scary/intimidating even if you're in a regulated system within a certain distance. I feel like the distance of this and/or the increased odds would/should be pretty short/small, otherwise you'll have a battle every two or three systems because you happen to choose a star that even exists in the same galaxy as pirate systems, but it would still be interesting to see, even if to a limited degree.

Can't Hire Vy'keen Armorer [Question]

I need suggestions on things to do, I have reached my peak. [Discussion]

I have nearly 90 hours in this game and have finally come to a point where I think I am either burnt out, or just have ran out of things to do. Every time I log on, I spend about 5-10 minutes flying around and just get off.

I have a base I love on a planet that isn’t half bad. I’ve tried the outpost stuff and have found it to be not worth how much time it takes to invest in it. The derelict freighters don’t have enough variety and the loot doesn’t appeal to me anymore. I am so beyond tired of fighting sentinels, even the new variants are already annoying me. I have a freighter and squad that i’m happy with as well as a ship I adore.

Is there any suggestions to liven up the gameplay a little? Is farming, livestock, and cooking worth it? That’s the only thing I think I haven’t tried.

Confused about "New Beginnings" & "The Atlas Path" missions. [Question]

Let me first say, I took a huge break from the game after putting in something like 100 hrs after the NEXT update (bought the game just before the NEXT update). I was doing the Atlas Path missions and whatever mission leads you to "New Beginnings." But I stopped & decided to do other things, then I took my aforementioned break. Picked up the game again just before the PS5 came out when I got VR for PS4. I still didn't go back to those 2 missions, as far as I remember.

For whatever reason, my mind was linking The Atlas Path & New Beginnings. As though the mission chains went hand in hand. Idk if I'm misremembering or something. Anyway, I do remember being asked to reset the galaxy & I was like "heck no, I put a lot of work into this one," thinking I'd lose all my work. I was recently told that you don't lose all your work, you just go to a new galaxy & can come back to any bases I have in the original one.

Once I learned that, I was like "ok, let's go reset that galaxy!" Only to find that the New Beginnings quest just says that there's years left to explore without resetting. And the Atlas Path mission just keeps having me make Hearts of the Sun, over and over again. Then it shows me the recipe for a Star Seed. But I already have it & already have a Star Seed installed WITH Remembrance.

Did I screw up or something? Do these mission chains really never end? What do I do?

Issues and inconsistencies with NMS Spacefaring People [Discussion]

I read a recent post, about how much someone hates Gek, and the comments focussed on what people had for and against their most and least favorite races/species of the NMS spacefaring people. I though I'd share (at some length, it seems) my thoughts about, and the issues that I have with all three...

I like Korvax best, but they are regularly contradictions between organic-like beings and the purely logical, digital, synthetic beings as they are usually presented.

Gek, I agree, are aggressive, manipulative, deceitful and usually mean-spirited. As was mentioned, it took an act of re-writing their entire genetic make-up against their will to turn them from being the most brutal, enslaving, conquerors.

Vy'Keen are also somewhat contradictory, but not as bad. They talk a big game about death and warfare, but also seem to be reasonably honorable above all the rest.

I don't think I would change any of those things... they are interesting distinguishing characteristics that define the three species and their cultures.

However:

There's some disturbing physiological divergence among different Vykeen's features, and among different Gek's features that don't seem to make sense.

Some Vykeen have eyes mounted on the sides of their head - from what I've read, a feature common to prey creatures, that prioritizes awareness of all possible dangers. Others have both eyes on the front of their heads (in the same location as other Vy'keen's nostrils, I think) which give predators the ability to focus and target prey. I guess this makes sense if they evolved separately as a predator and a prey class/subspecies, but the idea of eyes/nostrils being in interchangable locations on an otherwise similar skull is very odd.

Gek also have a wide variety of features. What stood out most to me was that some have two eyes and some have four. In itself, not...

Heyo. I’ve been getting back into NMS with the new Outlaws update and expedition. Loving all the new mechanics so far, the last time I played was part of the Dune expedition.

Claimed Damaged Ship without having a Freighter, and now I can't find it. Where did it go? [Question]

On my latest fresh restart of the game, before getting a freighter, I found and claimed a damaged ship. I had nowhere near the materials to get it flying, so I left it, hopped back in my first ship, and gathered some materials back in my storage chest at my base.

Headed up to the space station to grab a few more items (wiring loom, etc). Then I realized I can't find the freshly claimed but broken ship. When I land on a planet and try to Summon it rightly tells me, "Cannot Launch - Starship Damaged".

I have no icon to where the damaged ship is on the planet and apparently no way to find it, nor summon it. What are my options?

Spawn rates? [Question]

I was loitering at a trade station waiting for my perfect solar ships to arrive. I'd been doing the savescum thing to reload and get new waves of ships more quickly. In the space of 5 minutes I think I got 5 exotics to show up. Additionally, I was trying to recruit to my squadron, and the same solar ship constantly had the same grade of pilot/ship.

Are either of those two experiences just dumb luck or did they change how these things spawn recently?

Which upgrades do you "double up" on for your ships? [Question]

Heyo! So I was wondering what y'all have been doing for a full ship upgrade layout? My Solar is my main ship, and I've got a layout I'm pretty happy with. Mostly just working on getting all the trails/bobbleheads now.

That said, I currently only have a full 3+3 for the Hyperdrive, though I'm not sure how big a difference that's making so far lol ;; The Infra-Knife (+Rockets) has been great so far, even with only 3 upgrades. But I'll probably add another 3 for my weapon and Pulse Engine eventually (maybe Shields too), once I upgrade the Cargo tab further and have more storage space.

My other ships, I'll probably just make a solid layout focusing more on their specialties. But I love my Solar, and it's been my main ever since my gf found it for me right at the start of the game, so I wanna try and "optimize" it as best I can, eventually.

What about you guys? How have you gone about this stuff with your ships?

Do pirates pull from their solar system's ship design pool? [Question]

I'm not sure how to phrase this properly. Essentially, I jumped into a system and immediately faced some pirates, and I noticed a ship one of them was flying that I LOVE the design of and want to get for myself. However I've been pulsing all over the system, checking trade posts, the space station, and letting ships land on my own freighter hoping to see the design, and it hasn't popped up. I fought a couple more pirate groups during the hours I've spent searching around and they had that same ship design again. So basically I've only seen pirates using this design, but no NPCs are landing anywhere with it. Do pirates pull from a different ship design "pool" than the rest of the NPCs in any given system? Or am I just getting unlucky?

Any mods to select a Starship Trail? [Question]

But I heard that regardless of how or where you place them, the rainbow trail takes precedence over everything else.

I like the rainbow trail, but I'd like to select others if I want them, y'know? Thanks!

How I think ship customisation could work. If we ever got it.. [Discussion]

I think a lot of people enjoy ship hunting so adding full customisation would ruin that.

I think each ship should have a base model that can then be edited around the cosmetics it can potentially spawn with. For example royal can be customised with royal parts, living only with living parts, etc.

By doing this, finding exotics is still exciting. What do you think of this?

Outlaw System Spawn Percentages? [Question]

Built base just above water level, walking in basement makes sloshing sound [Question]

Exactly what the title says. I tried building a basement in a timber base which just so happens to get pretty close to water, but doesn't technically touch it.

Is there a way to fix this? Maybe building a half floor under it using short walls? When i built it i just let the floor boards remove the terrain, should i go back and use the terrain manipulator to remove it instead?

Feature suggestion: replanting flora [Suggestion]

Now that we have the ability to have pets, I’ve been thinking it would be nice to be able to replant generated non-farmable flora from other worlds near our bases. You could have something similar to the indoor grow-beds where you can replant decorative flora of your choice. I imagine you could have another type of grow box for outside, where you could have a garden of your favourite plants.

Living Ship Quest just gone [Question]

Hey traveller!

I recently wanted to continue my living ship questline after I ignored it for about two months. So I activated the portal and set the path given by the egg itself. Then I realized that the quest itself isn't in my log anymore, therefore it didn't update. Since I played this savefile for several months I cannot say where and when the quest disappeared.

Is there anything I can do (besides relog save file, warp into another system, reload, warp back, reload). I switched galaxy to Eisenttam two days ago, some reported it might break the quest.

Does it exist? Can it? [Question]

My friends and I have been looking for the perfect planet to call home and start building on. We've decided that our perfect planet would be a paradise planet that includes: no sentinels/bad weather glowing grass that isn't green/yellow glowing mushrooms all over bubbles

We've scoured countless star systems all over Eissentam and encountered plenty of paradise planets with some but never all of these things. One thing we noticed is that we've never found a planet that includes both bubbles and mushrooms. One or the other is always missing.

So our question is, is it out there? Is it even possible for both of those things to spawn together?

Would anyone be interested in a Dogfighting PvP group? [Discussion]

I’m thinking of starting a discord server for Dogfighting PvP. It’s something I experienced in the game only once by pure chance and it was a blast (no pun intended).

I’m wondering if there’s any community interest in something like that. I figure moderating it through discord would solidify the community for it and also allow the console players to communicate more effectively. There could even be a reward system for winning like getting a bunch of activated indium or something expensive like that. Meetups could be done in designated systems with glyphs/portals to get you there.

If something like this already exists please point me to it, otherwise if this post gets enough interest I’ll put it together and post a link. I think this could be really fun and would work best as a player-run community.

Using Voiceattach+HCS Voicepack in VR. Anytips on using it effectively ? [Suggestion]

Just Bought Voice attack and a HCS voicepack for NMS.

I play NMS soley in VR. I have now realized that Voiceattck is geared primarily to Keyboard and Mouse which is what NMS in VR does not use .

When I say certain commands like "Scan Area" I get a reply from the voice pack but nothing happens. It works in Pancake mode because the command is set to a keyboard shortcut, I suspect.

Am I able to assign commands to VR controller presses, or is there some hack I can employ to encompass Keybaord, mouse or joystick in VR ?

Interesting Journey [Discussion]

I originally picked up No Man's Sky on Steam the first time it went on sale several years ago. It was after the 1st big update, I think (Atlas?), and I gave it the good ol' college try. It did not end well, though. I refunded the game and left a review explaining my frustration.

Fast forward a couple of years later and I I'm hearing good things about NMS again. Since it was available on Game Pass, I gave it another shot...and loved the game! I put about 90 hours into it and made sure to change my Steam review from a negative to a positive. If you're interested, in you can see both my reviews here: https://steamcommunity.com/id/pinkled/recommended/275850?snr=1_5_9__402

Fast forward to last week, and I no longer have Game Pass, so I decide to buy it on Steam. I was surprised to see a save game I could load, then realized it was my cloud save from all those years ago before I refunded. I decided to load it and see if I could progress, now that I knew all the tricks of the trade.

Wow, it was still super tough! Turns out, my first spawn was on a toxic world. I had no mats left to recharge my life support system or hazard protection system. My scanner and analysis visor were both broken. It took me like 16 times of respawning and wandering in random directions trying to reach a cave before I died so my hazard protection could recharge and I could get some mats. Once I had that under control, doing everything else to get off the planet was a major challenge, even for an experienced player like I am now. And this was without the constant harassment of sentinels. I believe there was a high presence of sentinels the 1st time I played, but they must have changed it after all the updates because I didn't see one. Imagine that, though!

It's no wonder I left a negative review. What an awful start for a new player! But...

Breeding Flaws [Bug]

I’ve noticed that in NMS, if you breed a certain species too big, they can no longer run at their max speed. I managed to get my pet monstrosity to a height of 3 meters max, as a hatchling it runs full speed, as it matures though it stops running all together, and not even at a faster pace, it just walks when you toggle sprint I noticed a similar issue with my robot companion, again it’s 3 meters max, as it matured it no longer sprinted, but the walking pace does increase when I toggle sprint Just me?

So let's have a chat about some Abandoned Space Station weirdness... [Discussion]

On a few occasions while visiting an abandoned space station I have had random AI ships land and sit there as if it was a regular space station. NPCs act just like normal and give you the same options as normal.

Note the recruit option, which is unavailable in outlaw stations

I have learned this can happen after a freighter battle upon warping in, but I have seen this when nothing was happening out there as well. I just assumed for a bit it was from some mod I was using until it happened to my husband who was playing his Expedition save on console (Xbox), then saw it myself again after I removed and disabled mods in my game.

Earlier today I was listening to a Captin Steve live stream when I found another abandoned system. So I mentioned it in chat and asked if anyone else had seen this and a few people said they saw it after the freighter battle. Captin Steve decided to check it out and visited his base in an abandoned system and saw nothing at the station, then visited the station I had been in and again saw nothing. I'm so curious about this! I'm thinking most likely it's probably just a coding error or something similar confusing the abandoned stations with the outlaw stations, although I've only seen a couple of solar ships when I do run into this. I would assume if the game thought it was an outlaw system I'd see a lot more solars. I don't recall this happening prior to the update that added the "Welc0me Home?" screen message. Part of me hopes it's related to the station overrides and the new "Welc0me Home?" message on your screen when you land in one.

best ways to get units and nanites quickly [Question]

hey! i’ve been playing no mans sky off and on since it first launched but over the last year i’ve really been getting into the game bc the expeditions are so cool. i always see cool stuff that u all share on here like all your exotic ships and s-class freighters and i always want to get them (especially the new solar ships) but i can never afford them due to my play style. i typically have around 2mil units at one time but theres a freighter thats like 180 mil and i have no idea how to grind for units to get that much. what are the most efficient ways you guys have used to grind for units/nanites?

#

Please look at this Sean [Suggestion]

No mans sky is a game with seemingly infinite potential. The game is focused around endless exploration and fueled by the desire to discover something incredible.

That being said, there are some short comings I’d like to see addressed in the future.

Lack of interplanetary variation. There are tons to different biomes, plants and fauna between different types of planets however what no mans sky lacks is variation of biomes, flora and fauna within planets. Often I have fun looking for different types of planets but once I find one, I get in the atmosphere for a minute or two and feel like I’ve seen the whole planet. The planets are HUGE in this game but I feel like I’ve seen 95% of it within a few seconds. This should change, I suggest you have it so the game generates a base biome, flora and fauna for a planet and make like 8-16 different biomes that feature variations of the planets ‘base’ organisms. That would make it so I don’t feel like I’ve seen the whole planet with the same plants and animals copy and pasted for miles and would increase desire to explore planets.

Add bosses/dungeons with unique rewards. I think some sort of dungeon exploring with unique enemies and bosses would be a ton of fun. I know this one is a lot more difficult to achieve but it would still be an amazing experience to show up at an old door in the side of a mountain and go through a 10-15 minute dungeon with a crazy boss with a unique item drop

I hope you consider these options in the future. You have done really well so far making this game unique and special but these improvements would elevate it even more IMO.

I had over made over 2000 runaway mold in my refiner that I was going to turn into Nanites, they disappeared after reloading the game. Intended or Bug? [Question]

Is this a known issue? I had saved up all my junk materials to do this but had to close the game to do some uni work. Reloaded and both my refiners were empty, one was producing runaway mold the other was turning junk metal into ferrite dust. I had saved my game just before exiting.

Update 4.0 wishlist [Discussion]

I have been playing this game since it first launched on Xbox, and I have put in over 200 hours in the game. I know that is nothing compared to how much many of you have played, but it’s a lot for me. What Sean and his team have done on this game has been such a breath of fresh air in the micro transaction and loot box era where nothing is free or even finished at launch. For Hello games to have put in the work to make this game excellent is such a relief, I will buy their next title for sure! I have a wishlist for 4.0 and I am curious what you all think as well, so please share!

freighter or starship shipyards Something I have seen a lot of people ask for is space bases which is a good idea, but low orbit bases are already possible, I have one myself. I would like an explanation to how these huge freighters and frigates are built. I think it’s a great opportunity to add the chance for a shipyard to spawn in some systems. Maybe even rarely, to act as a multiplayer hub, but this would provide proper immersion to these huge ships, frigates, and even starships that exist with no conceivable way to build them in the game. Bonus points for sentinel factories!

capital cities or civilizations I think the idea of maybe 1-3 capital cities for each race, maybe more for vykeen because of the lore, would be awesome. They answered the question of where all these aliens live with settlements but a capital city would be great as a multiplayer hub point of interest, being extremely rare and worthwhile to visit in some way. For lore’s sake, overgrown or ruined cities from the sentinel invasions would be amazing dungeon, scavenging, and story opportunities.

More emphasis on co-op The addition of the nexus was a great start, but I want more reason to squad up and go exploring! Other people I have seen have suggested 2-4 seats in some ships which is a great idea, but I want a reason to explore or...

Question for those who know about game design and hardware/software limitations [Question]

I apologize if I’m not using the right terminology in my post. I’m pretty technologically illiterate. What I am wondering is how far away we are from being able to have NMS procgen scale combined with the realism that we are seeing in unreal engine. Obviously I don’t expect anyone to have an exact timeframe, but I’m interested in a rough idea of what the progression will look like in your opinion and the current barriers that are stopping something like this from being made right now.

Look man all I’m saying is can we get a blitz n chitz style arcade or casino or something in the galaxy [Suggestion]

If anyones seen Rick and morty and seen the blitz n chitz episode you know how could it would be to have an arcade or a casino or a dance federation or something in this game yk? I feel like real space would be closer to Rick and morty than no man’s sky as far as technological advancements and actually the environments. Like if I die have a hospital in every other solar system or something like life lives here beyond what we have been in game. Idk I just feel like there’s so much more that this game could be as far as a simulation game for space exploration. Add some fun fun stuff I get it some people want to be bounty hunters and some wanna be pirates okay well let me work at my hotel I made if someone’s wants somewhere to tp to in a galaxy but doesn’t want to MAKE a base there. Idk I just think there’s a lot of room for expansion :) lmk what you think. Would you like to hang with your friends in a casino or arcade in no mans sky?

Tribute to Snayct-Yudel (Structure) [Question]

So I was wandering the universe (as one does), and visited my Xth (lost count after 2) planet in this survival play through. As I was spending hours looking for the stupid-rare-animal-that-does-not-seem-to-spawn (as one does), I came across a strange looking structure that I had never seen before. I can best describe it has a "hut".

Initially, I thought it was a weird plant I could scan, but nope. Curious, I go and enter the thing, and that's when "STRUCTURE ENTERED, Tribute to Snayct-Yudel, Ancient Ruins" Notification poped up.

I've spent the last couple of hours checking if anything like that was seen before. Checked in the wiki if there were some info about "Tribute" structures, scoured reddit and googled to the best of my meager abilities and came out doubting my internet search skills.

So I'm turning to the biggest No Man's Sky community I know for answer. Has anyone seen anything like it ? What is it ?

I'm including a picture of the structure, as well as the coordinates if you would like to travel there and see it for yourself.

Planet Coordinates: +23.31, +19.07

Why is No Man's Sky Lore so goddamn depressing? [Discussion]

Alright for context: I'm now 20+ hours ingame. And so far i've gathered: The Korvax are not really individuals but also not really a hivemind. Then they got genocided by the Gek. The Gek are some greedy bastards and in turn got genocided by the Vy'keen. Who are fighting a perpetual war against war itself, which may be the worst, just leads to nothing except more war and suffering. Furthermore in the basic starting mission of building your base you meet: 1: an agrarian who is so disillusioned by the destruction of his species that the simplest of plants grant him satisfaction 2: an exo-craft technician who doomed his entire family to death 3: Your scientist who got disconnected from the convergence and has his memory reset multiple times

Why can't I just meet a nice town or village of well-meaning Aliens or something like that? I love No Man's Sky but it just feels so lonely :(

ps5 trophy autopop [Question]

Went to get back into no mans sky after a long hiatus and thought I'd start fresh on the ps5 version.

Made a new save on my ps4 version of my game so I could redeem my alpha vector from preorder and then exported the save to ps5. My ps5 then popped all the trophies from my ps4 version into the ps5 version meaning now I can't earn them myself again which is part of what I wanted to do.

Personal Lore for my character [Fan Work]

Finally wrote down some of my own personal lore if anyone was interested, always love day dreaming about the game and my own backstory/lore. Sorry for my terrible writing 😂

Backstory

Hailing from the Vespasian Empire, a once powerful, conquest driven empire dedicated to conquering the whole universe. But not for any nefarious deeds, but rather, they truly believed that they were the answer to all of the universes problems, that their rule would bring peace and prosperity to everyone, and that the ends justified the means.

During their conquests, they awakened a dark, sinister evil, an entity so powerful that as it awoken, all atlas stations suddenly closed their doors and locked down. It is said that any atlas artifact across the universe suddenly began to glow brightly and extremely hot, as if reacting to whatever power was suddenly active. Even the sentinels in the galaxy that the entity awoken in, seem to flee and were nowhere to be found.

The Vespasians realized the horror they unleashed upon the universe and set out to correct their mistake, luring the entity back to their homeworld, where they planned to attack it with everything they had. It wasn't enough, as the entity tore through their defenses without even slowing down, the Elder Council of Vespasia knew they had to do something in order to try to put an end to this terror, so they decided to make the ultimate sacrifice and used am experimental weapon to start a chain reaction in the star that Vespasia orbited, causing it to rapidly expand and to explode in a massive, violent supernova. Destroying not only Vespasia but also the whole star system, leaving nothing behind.

Eklektos, the former Admiral of the Vespasian Armada, was one of the first to engage the entity as it awoke. The entity, proving far superior to any tech the Vespasians had, destroyed Freighters and Frigates as if they were mere toys,...

Has anyone ever been able to successfully warp to the next galaxy in VR mode on PC? [Bug]

I absolutely adore this game on a Rift-S. Once you've seen this on an RTX 3080 with high settings, you just can't go back to desktop mode.

Unfortunately, there is one small issue.

It doesn't seem to be possible to warp to the galactic core in VR mode. I've done it numerous times in Desktop mode (I have over 700 hours in the game & have been playing since Pathfinder), but it's like the galactic core is just gone in VR, with nothing to select. No circle that fills when you press the trigger/wrap button even with the path highlighted.

I've read that a few people have managed to do this on PSVR though it's really finicky, but has anybody managed it in PCVR?

I've already submitted a support ticket to hello games's zendeak.

Can someone buy this game for me on steam? [Question]

I mean I don't usually do these things, but I really want to play this game.

I return to a base and find the entire thing moved under the mound I built it on. [Bug]

Doing the main quest I end on a really cool glitch planet, built a base above ground on a plateau. It had an electricity node near and some good mineables, built machines and left them mining and went off to explore. Return two days later, the plateau is there, the planet is no longer a glitch one, my base has moved down into the cup shaped plateau and all the node mining machines I made are gone, and the portal inside my base too. On top of that there was an Atlas station, its now gone. All other planets in the system remained the same I think, bunch of bone littered planets and a bubbly moon. Just weird. Anyone else experienced something like this recently?

10th Fauna to discover [Question]

Hello fellow Voyagers, I'm fairly new to this game, still discovering new things everyday, and I love it!

I'm a bit of a completionist, and when I discovered you had a log of all the things you scanned I just had to scan everything in the solar system where I have my base. The thing is, there's a planet that I just can't seem to find the last Creature I have to scan. It normally gives me pointers as to where to look in an "undiscovered" entry, but now I've got nothing.

There is indeed a giant worm on the planet that I wasn't able to scan, even if it has a red dot like every other scannable creature, but a little digging up on here led me to posts saying you can't scan them & that they don't count towards the completion of the Fauna scans, so, I was wondering, what's happening here?

Thanks a lot in advance !

#

Fauna update a priority? [Discussion]

Would you say that is the case? I reckon it is. With all of the things added and improved upon, the animals in this game have remained succintly last gen.

I would obviously like more assets, but what I think should be addresed as well is the on planet fauna placement. I'd like all of the planets doubling up on the number of fauna appearing on a planet, but in such a way that some species are endemic and are only to be found in certain regions of the planet. I know that to some extent this already exists, but it needs to be improved upon vastly. This coupled with new assets would I think satisfy the explorers for years to come, as another universe reset to enhance terrain generation capabilities seems increasingly unlikely.

Oxygen having magical duplication properties ruins the game's economy. It has to be removed. [Suggestion]

Why would anyone ever bother unlocking iridesite and refining tons of gold, ammonium, phosphorus, dioxite, etc into a handful of the most valuable mineral in the game worth maybe 2 million when you could just dupe chlorine for hours and make billions? Or duping cobalt and selling and then buying your stock back over and over again?

All Hello has to do is change that one odd use of Oxygen and players would have to actually put time and effort into making money. Right now, the best way to make money by far is just to sit around duping as much resources as possible and then exploiting the economy system with it.

Having a powerful way of making money is fine if it requires thought, planning, and involves some risk, but you can do this exploit the moment you get the second refiner and doesn't involve any risk at all. You don't even need to get into your starship to do it with how teleporters work, which seems like a problem when the game is supposed to revolve around flying through space.

On top of that it's boring. You don't need to set up any sort of efficient farm or deal with complex electronics to get it done. All that matters is setting up as many refiners as you need to fill up a hauler and you never need to worry about money again.

It just trivializes units as a currency entirely. Which also trivializes nanites because having enough units lets you buy and scrap starships which gets you as many nanites as you'll ever need.

I know this is an indie game and all, but just changing how Oxygen works would eliminate all these problems entirely.

Efficient strategies [Discussion]

So i started a new safe (to do the expedition stuff), got a fancy S-Class freighter for free and a hauler with 39 slots whith which i curently ride along the atlas path.

Though i want to build up my freighter fleet, upgrade my freighter, get a solar ship and upgrade that too which all cost a ton of space cash.

My options are:

a)Dig out ancient bones to purchase material needed for an AI farm.

b)Sell curent ship, buy fighter and raid gek freighters to get enough silver to build onboard freighter, stasis device farm.

What would you do? And what is your strategy to get maxed out most efficiently? Without visiting other players AI farms or glitching naites ofcourse.

Portal question [Question]

Heya travelers! I'm a fairly new player and I wanted to ask, in order to use a portal do I have to find one by using charts do find a monolith, then find a portal fuel it and activate it, every single time? Or is there an easier way?

I managed to collect all the glyphs and now trying to find an exotic ship (which goes very poorly so far, ive spent 3 days waiting in space stations and still got nothing :p)

But besides that the first few times I used a portal I visited some amazing worlds so I was wondering if I have to do all these stuff every time.

Continuing Save after Expedition? [Question]

So I haven't played NMS much in the past few years and this is my first Expedition. I've enjoyed it so much that I decided to keep playing after finishing all the Expedition milestones. I got my first ever Exotic ship and am in the process of upgrading its storage to max.

My question is, if I want to keep playing this save after the Expedition ends, what exactly happens? I've heard it gets converted to a "Normal" save but I'm not sure what that means. I mean, I'm currently in the Paholiang galaxy, which I understand is pretty far in... When the Expedition ends, will it force me back to Euclid? Will I lose my ship(s) and/or base(s)?

I just don't want to waste time on this save if I'm going to lose it all... Although I'd hope that wouldn't happen.

Stargazing in NMS? [Question]

Hi! I used to be an avid player of NMS since its launch until a couple years ago when I left my country. I have been following all the updates, gameplay and other news surrounding NMS in hopes that I would catch up with the game and continue from where I left off. Now that the starlit sky of NMS is more vivid than ever, I was wondering, are we actually looking at the nearby stars, or is the sky just a static layer for all? If it is the former, then it is very cool that the sky would be different when viewed from different star systems, and that we can actually roleplay stargazing and categorise new constellations (especially those who live a settled life in a star system). Any idea?

Trying to set up a spot where I can give my expedition materials to my base save [Question]

This is gonna seem all weird at first but hopefully someone has an answer.

-Keep in mind both my saves are normal (expedition save is still an expedition save though cause it hasn’t ended yet and won’t for another 2 weeks from writing this)-

I’ve finished the 6th expedition like many others before me. All the special materials earned after beating it would be appealing in my base save which I have 150 hours in. I set up a base on a planet in Euclid (expedition save) and put down a “traveller message” on my (Base Save). Going back to my expedition save, I can see my own message pop up on screen so obviously both saves are working with each other. However the base I put down on my expedition save is not appearing for my base save, -even though both characters are in the exact position on the exact planet in the exact same star system. My question is will a friend be able to help me move my items to my base save if they’re there too? Or do I need to wait for the expedition to end in order to be able to function properly?

Paradise planet with hostile/aggressive fauna? [Discussion]

Found a Hauler, Just wanted to tell someone. [Discussion]

I finally found a hauler I can be happy with. A class, Yellow boxy and symmetrical, only missing 6 slots from what’s currently available. I’m not sure if I’ll gain room for more when I upgrade it to S, but as of right now it’s only 3 tech slots and 3 cargo slots from being decked out.

The best part is I didn’t do any reloading. I’m in a relatively poor Gek system so I was pretty happy with the A class. I just occasionally see the style I like and check the build and this time it was worth my money. This game can still be a fun little quest for stuff even after 120+ hours.

Kinda a small thing, but know what would be nice? [Suggestion]

You know how it tells you the damage potential of a weapon on your ship?? It would be nice if it also told you how close you are or if you're over the potential of said weapon so if you are but not on another one you could delete a few small powered ones on the op one and you could add to those others that need more to the tech slots to increase the potential of them.

Help Me find the Source of My Ship [Question]

So here I am playing the blighted expedition and I happen to find the most gorgeous living ship, deep emerald green and white with all the right bits in all the right places.. and I wanted to share it with you guys BUT... I came back from Euclid via the anomaly to get it and I cannot remember which system I teleported back into... and I have warped 2 or three times since getting it.

Now I have a save from just before, so I thought "I know I will just follow the same instincts" - but I have now tried at least 20 locations... before I discover that while the site of crashed ships is consistent, the location offered through starbirth is random each time you enter a system, so I would have to reload too many times to find it that way.

Now, when I look at my Discoveries, I see all the systems, but they are not in visited order, they are in discovered by me first, then below, discovered by other people, so I cannot possibly know where I was more than the last warp..

Or can I?...

In a way, it does not matter, I have the ship, but I have had so much from other players that it would be nice to give something back.

starship collision physics [Discussion]

Has anyone felt that the starship collision physics needs improvement. it is kind of immersion breaker for me . be it while in a space fight or landing in a freighter or even landing on a planet when we collide with another ship,freighter or mountain you just bounce off like a toy rather than a crash. in case of such collisions it would be cool if the game plays a cut scene of starship exploding kind of like nfs crashes and restarts from last save. this will give a sense of danger while flying close over planets and improves immersion. same goes on space dogfights it gives the sense of speed while we are at it.

So I’ve been trying to scrap a few of my ships for better and bigger ones but when I go to scrap , it says inventory full so I back out and I see that I received items , when I go to checked , I see I had none of thoses items and did it again but this a little more frustrated so I hit the buttons a couple times and boom I see I’m receiving 30 of each item but don’t have a single one . Plus I still own the ship. I’ve tried changing ships and then systems , I’ve reloaded my saves and everything, I still can’t scrap. Luckily I still got the ships traded but I was hoping to get stuff for my new ships with the scrap parts . Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it ?

I could do with a bit of help regarding my ship... [Question]

So I love this solar ship that I've found. Currently got it in A class but would prefer S class. I've been spending ages at a trading post waiting for the S class version to spawn and it just doesnt seem to be happening.

From what I understand, the class differences affect certain bonuses, but these bonus amounts can overlap a little i.e. a really great A class might be better in some aspects than an S class that rolls lower numbers (I think?).

Would anyone be able to take a look at the stats on my ship here and be able to tell me if its a decent A class? Because if it is I might give up my search for the S class version.

Would be super appreciated!

[Building question] [Question]

Hi guys, I was wondering if it's possible to build around a drop-pod.

Is it something that can disappear or is it a permanent building?

Farming Walker Brains [Question]

I did a search and there were a lot of posts asking how to get a walker brain for the one quest. But I need lots of them regularly to make Explosive Drones for my Combat Frigates. They used to be fairly easy to get, but since the latest update you have to go through 3 or 4 waves of other sentinels just to get one or two. It's way more time-consuming than it used to be.

Is there a faster way to get these things?

Having trouble launching the game in VR [Question]

Hi! I recently built my first gaming pc, and bought an oculus quest 2. I was very very excited to play No Mans Sky in vr mode, as I had bought the game awhile ago but couldnt really gert into it as I had no friends to play with, and it wasn't VR. I've heard great things about NMS in VR, so I'm really looking forward to playing, however no matter what I try, the game launches just fine in normal nonVR mode, but when I try to launch it in VR mode, either through SteamVR, or just by clicking play in steam and selecting VR, all I see is a black screen that takes up about 75% of my screen in the top left. Eventually, it greys out in the same way windows do when they haven't been responding in a while, and I force quit the process in the task manager. Please help, I've googled and I feel like I've tried everything.

I can't see my wife in multi-player. [Suggestion]

So I added my wife (who is on steam and I'm on xbox) but when she is hosting it's not showing up on my end as her being on. Not sure what's happening and I'm pretty sure all of our settings are where they need to be. Any suggestions?

No man’s sky expedition 6 PS4 [Question]

Will not allow the galaxy change, in the right place and fully fueled, but no targeted system at Galaxy core. Push and hold RS then release and it returns to the Ivnyomitt system. Anyone know what I need to do. Thanks

How many ships can I actually own? [Question]

The wiki says I can own 9 (since I have 9 places in my freighter), but I found a crashed starship and when I tried to claim it, it said I can't claim it, only swap ship.

What's the deal here?

A Massive Thank You to Kind Stranger [Information]

I hadn't played this game in ages and I totally forgot about what had happened for me. One day I was on the space anomaly when someone gifted me something. Well I can't remember what them 3 things were but when I finally got round to selling them they were worth over a 400,000,000. I can't thank this person enough. I've now got my own fleet, anything I want TBF. Although I'm still a tight arse and won't spend it on much 🤣🤣 thank you kind stranger wherever you are 🤙

hope this is allowed but... [Information]

I finally decided to download the game on series x and I'm loving it, I started just as the latest expedition started and have gotten about 32 hours in and have finished the expedition and have finished the atlas path and have started my own base but I can't seem to find how to get some crafting items such as science stations and possibly a bunch of other things.

Should I have started a regular game first instead of going straight in to expeditions? Or can I still unlock all crafting items?

I now have a slot open for and new ship!! [Question]

Solars are a bit difficult because I have to acquire just to see the sails unless I want to haul ass into orbit with them to see, and if it’s cool AND an S… well I just missed out. I have a solid Solar I like so that is aside. I have one of each ship already, but I just scrapped one. What should I go for next?? Of course I like fighters, I do have the exotics I want already so no more, living ships are a hassle so no thank you, I’m in Creative so the need for another Hauler is questionable??.. I do like fighters, I do like shuttles, etc. My favorite thing to do those is match my ship with my fit and MT. Obv money/nanites are no object. Please give me some interesting ideas fellow travellers!! ALL opinions and ships/links will be considered!! In exchange I will give an option of a Multitool location of your request!! :)

Cannot find the floating ship to start Under A Rebel star [Question]

I recently bought NMS on Steam - I got myself a gaming pc this year - to make a sort of but not quite mirror for my PS5 playthrough. On said playthrough I was able to trigger and finish Under A Rebel Star pretty much instantaneously. Now on my pc save, I did two main missions (currently at the start of Ghost In The Machine), and began glyph hunting so I could start getting my favourite solar ships on this save. But before I try and portal to a specific outlaw system, I wanted to do the quest to ‘discover’ them and also get the hood and cape. I have been warping five times, hyperdrive jumping back and forth across systems and the only space encounters I found were traders or the one odd derelict freighter. Never a floating ship… so how can I ever start Under A Rebel Star then? It’s not in my mission logs that’s for sure, and I’m on a normal save…

Changing Freighters - question about inventory and stuff [Question]

I've read as many of the past posts as I can find and tried to compile as much info as I can but I would like some assistance before I lose a bunch of crap that I already have. I have a Capital Freighter (got it free before I learned I could have declined it and waited for my "ideal" one) and I have minimally built a freighter base. I added storage rooms and the command room to send frigates on missions. I also put down 3 medium refiners, a teleporter, a construction terminal, and a Galactic Trade Terminal. I have a lot of cargo stashed in the storage rooms I added.

My understanding thus far is that I have to de-construct all the free standing stuff I built (refiners, teleporter etc...) before swapping freighters. But the Fleet Command Room and the storage rooms (along with all their contents) will transfer over automatically. I just have to transfer anything in the Freighters cargo tab myself, and dismantle any engine upgrades to get the components, and then rebuild the items on the new freighter. Does this sound about right? I really want to go freighter hunting and find a better looking one but I don't want to lose everything I've already collected.

Thanks from the noob player who has barely 50 hours in the NMS Universe

Living Ship Bug? [Question]

I've done all the things they ask of you to prepare the living Ship, and now it says it's humming at a strange frequency of something, to await contact. So I've pulse drove for....ever ....and still no contact. Is this normal? Do I need to be in a certain type of system? Do I need something specific in my inventory? It's driving me crazy because I finally got the void egg, thanks to the expedition, and now it's jiving me around... I wanted to name it Yuuzahn Vong, or Legacy of Torment (I think that was the name of the ship from that particular story). That would be awesome, but if the shit doesn't work...well...piss...

some noob questions [Question]

I'm getting back into the game, after taking a break. The whole starting a new job, balancing work/life, setting up new routines. I also plan to start streaming again on Twitch this weekend, did a late night test with obs, 0 views unfortunately.

The questions. 1. I know I missed updates and expeditions, but what is the squadrons thing I'm seeing and space stations taken over by pirates? I didn't get far on normal before, usually derped around in creative learning. 2. Exactly how do upgrade modules work? Do they have to be together? Is there a limit? And when installing the hyperdrive upgrades, do you have to keep them all, or only the best one? Limited slots being a thing.

Thank you for reading and answering my noob questions

grave [Question]

I have some questions since i died repeatedly (somebody killed me I'm my starship and didn't let me reach my grave) so i am worried about everything i had on my starship:

What happens to the grave if I don't retrieve it's content?

Can the grave content be lost permanently?

Can others steal the content of my grave?

what happens to the grave if I die multiple times?

Can I have multiple graves?

Is there a difference between a regular grave and a starship grave other than the content?

Hi space travelers! I have some questions on the multiplayer. [Question]

I really appreciate if you want to help me understand this. I searched online infos but o have more doubt than ever. I played the game at day one before multiplayer add. I have understand that normal mode is multiplayer too but… I can find Random people? I think it’s rare but I can’t? If I play with a friend and I host the game on my save, she can progress in some way or she only help me with my missions? The player that go in other people session, bring his stuff/ship shit with him? I can make more questions but I think you understand what axpects I’m trying to understand. I want to know if players can have the pleasure of progressing themselves or once the session is over they may lose everything. finally the distinction between normal and multiplayer is not clear to me. Multiplayer takes the same save as base? Sorry for too much question. I hope you can help me ❤️

Interstellar Coordinates Received won't get off my damn screen [Bug]

I have this huge notification in the middle of my screen that's been plauging my game since the pirates update. Doesn't matter what I've done it doesn't go away, -Restart mission -Restart Game -Save and Reload -Check inventory for void eggs-even started playing on my Xbox (cause gamepass),

-Teleport literally everywhere -even tried doing the damn quests to get rid of it but the issue is I don't know which quest it is. Nothing has worked. -Reinstalled the game for good measure.

Please just don't tell me I gotta complete every single quest to get rid of this.... I have few unfinished quests lol and I just do not care about them.

The First Traveller Bug [Bug]

Ive collected all the data I need (i think its 6 of them) and I have just now realized the little ball thing youre supposed to give them to just isnt here. I flew to the other side of the galaxy to try and maybe reset it and now theres no waypoint telling me where to even go.

Any help? I kinda messed up... [Question]

I completed the Atlas missions and reset my galaxy to the green lush one. I entered my first planet and scanned lots of creatures etc. I then saw that my settlement had a building to be upgraded so I used the anomoly to transport myself to it. I then relaised my mistake after 30 minutes of editing my settlement when I could not teleport back to my new galaxy as I did not visit the space station or create a teleporter. Is there any way I can go back to my new galaxy? All I have is a new discovered planet in it. I manually saved when I re-entered my settlement.

Matter Beam Different Systems? [Question]

I’m a new player to NMS and have been looking up a few tips and tricks - I discovered the matter beam for freighters, and everyone seems to say that transferring items to and from freighters only works when you’re in the same system, but if I teleport to another system and leave my freighter in the previous system, I still have no problems moving items into my inventory from my freighter

Is this a more recent update or am I missing something?

Hi my name is Dyne25, and I have a Base building problem. [Discussion]

No matter how perfect, beautiful, or interesting of a planet may be I find I can’t seem to settle down.

My pattern seems to be -

I find a new awesome planet, and start building a super elaborate base with every amenity.

Pouring in hours, agonizing over every detail in the hopes it will look “believable” in our NMS world. Or thinking about if another player found it would they think it was cool.

Then I cruise NMS Reddit, and find an every cooler planet and figure I’ll pop over to “take a peek”. Then I end up starting a new base and repeating the cycle.

Any other endless base builders out there. Is there hope? Have you settled or are you building as you read this?

Save fleet from pirates? [Question]

Did they do away with pirate conflicts with freighters? Like the type that would prompt you to save them directly after warping to a new system?
