One Stop Shopping! [Information]

https://preview.redd.it/ct7dpj4c5qz81.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=54f6812ae6f3ba9ff00ca4c4548b568e12c37e23

Everyone, this is my new favorite Starship Upgrade Module dealer, Ras. Ras does business out of a 2 star system in Euclid, for which the glyphs are pictured.

Ras's shop is the BEST. He sells S-class upgrade modules for Hyperdrive, Pulse Engines, Shields, Photon Cannon, AND Positron Emitter. If photon + positron is your loadout, as it is mine, then you never need to shop anywhere else. As with all shops, he restocks his wares when you reload your game.

Stop by Ras's place and spend some nanites, there isn't that much foot traffic in 2 star economies, and my dude has sentient beacons to care for. Mention my name to get zero percent off!

To all the No Man’s Sky enthusiasts! Is this game for me? [Question]

I’ve never played no man’s sky, but I remember hearing about this game way back in 2013. The whole concept of it was breathtaking, like a dream!

Unfortunately I never bought it due to the reviews being quite bad at launch, but the hype was so intense at first that I never forgot about this game.

Well, I looked it up recently and saw that the devs have been updating and improving this game exponentially throughout the years, and it currently has gotten lots of positive reviews.

I’m eager to jump into such an enormous world and begin exploring. Everything looks so unique and beautiful, from expansive landscapes to the various life forms you find.

My only worry with this game is that I really don’t want to have to invest hundreds of hours having to collect loot and items, mining for equipment, and basically doing tedious and boring work in a video game, just to have an enjoyable adventurous play-thorough. I’m not a big fan of that type of system, especially if the items you are looking for are few and far between.

Is the mining and collecting really as tedious as they claim? How many hours would I have to grind in order to have a really cool base and a rocking spaceship I can zoom across the galaxy? That’s all I really want! xD

Also, what’s the some of the funnest stuff you can do playing NMS by yourself? :)

After a Year Hiatus, I'm trying Again... But Still Bugged? Save Me [Question]

Hello All.

I got the game for PS5 a year ago, and fell absolutely in love. The entire thing just... mwah. Along the very, VERY early playthrough, I got myself to the mission "The Purge" and discovered the last portal. I gave all the required materials to feed the 16 tablet/runes and then went through the portal.

Upon arriving on a brave new planet, I'm left without a ship, without the ability to build anything, without the ability to summon anything. Up on the DPad brings nothing. Scanning is "unavailable" and I'm left roaming the planet with absolutely nothing to do and no where to go. The mission itself doesn't update (still says "go through the portal") and I'm forced to reload from earlier.

I've done this now over 25 times in hopes it works itself out. So I took to the good 'ol internets.

Google & YouTube show me something that hasn't/doesn't happen for my game: upon arriving through the portal, there's a sort of "countdown" starting from 16/16 all the way down to 0/16, at which point the player gets teleported on to a red anomaly and the mission continues.

I'm so lost and discouraged that I'm screwed but I'm sure it's just me messing something up but if there's anyone out there who has any type of advice or solution, I would really appreciate it.

I really just wanna dive into this game full time :(

Thanks in advance.

How do I get to a specific galaxy once I have set it as a waypoint on my galaxy map? [Question]

I’m still trying to figure out how to best use the Galaxy Map. I have a specific galaxy that I’ve visited before, but it’s a restricted galaxy, so I can’t use the space station warps to get back to it. I’ve found the galaxy in the galaxy map and have set it as my way point, but it’s out of jump range from my current location, and I’m having a hard time figuring out how to plot a route from my current location. Any help is super appreciated.

No second free freighter? [Question]

I got the first freighter battle but after it, the captain didn’t send a communication signal. After a while, I decided to enter the freighter but the captain only let me buy it. Moving on since it was a bad freighter anyway, I continued to warp around, but after 15 warps, it still hasn’t given me another freighter battle?

Saving crashes the game after traveling through the galactic core [Bug]

I’ve been trying to run through the expedition as fast as I can before it ends and just made it to the center of the galaxy. Now my game freezes and crashes every time I try to save. It works fine before I warp through, but once I’m on the other side I can’t save using any means. Anyone else had this problem? Would like to finish the expedition this week.

First Five Minutes Playing This Game And I'm Having A Terrible Time [Bug]

Opened the game and within five minutes I got stuck in a wall. I had no way to escape and if I wasn't playing with a buddy, I would have to quit and restart at the last save? If this is what I'm to expect while playing, I don't get how people could claim it's any better than it was before. That's without mentioning how clunky the game plays and looks.

Edit: Another five minutes in and my buddy can't use her mining gun. It makes the sound and forces first-person but the gun isn't there and it does not gather anything. Yes it is refilled, it's seemingly broken or the game simply fails at explaining why this is happening,

Expedition Squadron Bug: No Nanite Cost? [Bug]

Hello!

Sorry to bother you all, but I'm trying to finish the last few bits of the Blight expedition, and need to recruit a member to my squadron. Unfortunately, when I use the terminal aboard my freighter, none of the slots have nanite costs, and when I try to buy one it says I have insufficient nanites. Any assistance would be appreciated!

Matchmaking issues? (Xbox) [Question]

So I have a couple questions. I can no longer do matchmaking. It keeps saying "matchmaking unavailable" when I check my network. There isn't even people in the anomaly anymore. Is this due to some quest I started or something? I can still do nexus missions but no one ever pops up.

Second my bases won't rename or upload. Honestly I'm crappy at building so the upload isn't necessarily a big deal but I'm going to lose my mining planets over time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Starships [Question]

Is it possible for two players to use the same hotspot? [Question]

Heyo! Basically the topic title... Would it be possible for my gf and I to somehow use a singular hotspot? Especially an electromagnetic one?

We don't have one particularly close to our home, but figured it'd be a nice thing to have so we wouldn't have to worry much about power, or need space for solar panels and batteries, especially as we expand.

Any advice?

About living Ship storage upgrade after the last update... [Question]

Ok, i only upgraded my LS in single play and maxed out the space storage with freighters upgrade, that is not that much but now it has space for some cargo and this could be enough... but I'm really curious: does the freighter glitch work now with the added extra storage-sacks too?

I'm not interested in the other "multi-play" method.

Cross-region Multiplayer [Question]

Hey NMS Community!

My friends and I have been following the redemption arc of this game and we feel it's a good time to hop in.

However, we live in two different regions (EU - US) so my question is if we would be able to play between ourselves?

Are there any possible limitations when playing cross-region multiplayer?

Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated before we make the jump :)

Thank you for your time and hopefully we will meet soon in some uncharted planet 🌞😎

Coldest Known/Possible Planet? [Question]

Does anyone know what the coldest possible planet is in NMS? Or what is the coldest you've seen so far ("coldest" meaning the worst it gets during storms)?

The Wanderer's Path 8 [The Wanderers Path]

Chapter Eight - The last steps

I open my eyes and look around the room. It is a large room, totally in semi-darkness. It's strange because this time I know I'm dreaming.

I startle a little when I hear the echo of my own footsteps on the metal floor. In front of me I can make out two silhouettes of medium height that remind me of the gek merchants I met at that trading post a few cycles ago. Damn, it seems like centuries ago. It all seems so far back in time....

As I approach the silhouettes, I discover that they are altars as black as night. I touch the one closest to me and an intense white light blinds me for a few seconds. When I regain my vision, I see that a holographic projection has emerged from a small opening in the center of the altar. It looks like a sphere. A planet perhaps. I get even closer. Something inside me tells me that....

No...

It is not a planet. I don't know how but I am completely sure that it is a miniature galaxy. A real galaxy. Another glow emerges from the altar to my right. And another one a little further. Even a third. In total there are four altars with their respective pocket universes floating above. Each one is a different color: red, green, blue and cyan. I peek into each of them. I gaze at them, admiring. I can see small cosmic events happening inside them. Supernovas, black holes, planets being created and destroyed.... Deep down we are insignificant beings, tiny specks of dust in the immensity of the universe.

I can't help but panic and fall to the cold floor, when a voice exactly like mine speaks to me from the other side of the room, still mostly covered by shadows.

// Hello Traveler //

I turn, but see only darkness.

// We have little time // But there are some things I want to convey to you //

The living being approaches me faster than any biological entity can move. I observe its features, exactly the...

Vehicle usage and love [Discussion]

Since the Minotaur is getting all the loving lately with the new upgrades, I was curious how people use the other vehicles? I have built a few of them, but besides the Minotaur and the rover car, haven't really used them beyond initial playing around.

How do you guys set up your individual exocraft? Do you set them up for special uses or just have one that you enjoy and use as your primary?

Un-named Korvax NPC won’t speak with me. [Bug]

NMS 'Nuzlocke' rules? [Discussion]

I'm enjoying a solid survival playthrough, but I'm finding that I'm leaning too hard on some mechanics that have taken some of the challenges out of the game. So I'm toying with a 'Nuzlocke' rule set to make my next run more engaging.

For example, cycling through wealthy system economies to grind units. Too easy, too fast. Can buy anything in an hour. So, no more of that. Possibly might even disallow myself the economy scanner.

Also, I'm just getting into having the specialists live at my base and finding that they have quests that reward blueprints that I've already cleared out bought from the Anomaly. So, maybe I ought to disallow myself shopping from the Anomaly's back area. Question: is everything available for 'sale' in the Anomaly available elsewhere?

What rules would you suggest to constrain and make a run feel more intimate and challenging?

Using creative mode to permasave terrain edits to normal/survival? [Question]

Does switching to creative mode permasave terrain edits? I haven't seen anyone having issues with terrain regenerating in creative mode.

Im trying to find a workaround for terrain edits not being saved on normal and survival and was wondering if switching to creative mode to create terrain edits, and then saving and switching the save back to normal/survival would commit the changes to the existing terrain and not consider it an "edit"

Has anyone tried this? Im going to be trying when i get home tonight

Questions from a returning player - confused about a couple of things, especially bases. [Question]

I bought the game a few years ago, played it and enjoyed it, but never really got into it. I've picked it back up again now and am loving it, particularly creative mode. But I do have a normal mode save as well.

Just a couple of things I'd like to clarify.

Bases - If I don't upload my base its effectively private? If I go to a known planet (say a planet someone makes a youtube video about) can I build a base at the portal, or will I be interfering with other players? Could they interfere with my base if they started building? I have set the options to stop anyone from editing base parts or terrain etc. And I play in single player with multiplayer disabled.

I'm just confused about what I should or shouldn't be doing. I can see some other bases, but I'm assuming that's because the players have uploaded them to make them visible - even in single player mode?

Mods - I have just found that that you can get mods for this game! Are they advised? Can they cause problems (I am looking at game crash issues now)? Are there any must have quality of life mods that are useful?

Portals - does every planet or moon have a portal? So if I discover a planet I love, should there be a portal on it somewhere? I know about getting Alien cartographic maps, but when I tried that by landing on a planet, I found loads of plaques and ruins but no Portals. I've read that the best way is to find a Portal on a planet using exocraft and sensors?

Once you find a portal whats the best way to tag it so you can find it again? Save beacon?

Organisation - I know you can edit the names of your ships, multi-tools and bases. But is there a way of adding notes to thing listed in the teleport menu for example? If there's a particular station I want to flag, do I just have to make a note of it or can I do something in game?

I'm playing No Man's Sky with the feeling I wish I still had for Minecraft. [Discussion]

I just realized that. Basically, I just noticed how I wasn't even playing the main quest - I'm here building my base, growing my settlement. Upgrading stuff, having new plans of a thing I wanna build... Friends come and go from my world to theirs, meaning that I sometimes play with friends, sometimes alone. It's one of these games I can just hop in, relax, and leave whenever I can. It's a soothing game, that I'm playing as (almost entirely) sandbox.

It's a feeling I had for minecraft ten years ago. Enjoying the sandbox, building stuff and going on adventures, with friends hoping on and off the server. I sometimes restarted minecraft, but never found this feeling back nowadays. And here I am, fifty hours in my No Man's Sky main save (not counting expeditions) and I just realized that this is how I'm playing the game. With that good old feeling.

It's a nice game.

THRUSTERS ONLY. Duel or single. Start a creative. Hit the ss to upgrade all you need. Get the first freighter you can. Use glyphs to jump from galaxies 1 to 10 to have full(ish) glyphs (also I have a galaxy jumper glyph to jump in under 5min, just DM), see how long it takes to get as many of the BALLS you can, take pic, upload, satisfied you got all the BALLS, then if you want, continue the mode.

Id also grab and explorer asap for farther jump until you can get your first ball so yu can jump farther)

Stupid yet funny challenge. I mean. Cmon. Looking down from your freighter to see JUST the smallest ships?? Pretty funny.

I don't want just one ship [Discussion]

Every time you see a Freighter come warping into your current solar system, it's never alone. Sure it has frigates you can recruit but that's not what I mean, there are other freighters and storage ships with it, it's not just a freighter it's a fleet. That's what I'm looking for.

I have a B class Dreadnought and every time I look at it and my frigates I say to myself "there should be more, I want a dread fleet" I want a fleet of ships coming in behind me as I travel from system to system, I want pirates to look at my ships like they're looking at the royal navy and scatter. I want a fleet with much more storage space for building bases and gathering resources for trading but I also want a fleet to strike fear in all those who gaze upon it.

Now am I saying that I want galactic space battles? Not necessarily but I think it would make being a space pirate more fun for those that chose said path, loading torpedoes and assaulting other fleets. Personally whenever I get pinged by pirates I warp my freighter right on top of them and let my frigates and my freighter clean house. I just hope bring able to have more freighters and storage ships is in the cards for the next update.

What Do You Consider "Exploring" a Planet? [Question]

With so much to see and do, it can be overwhelming when you arrive to a new system with 5 or more planets to explore. Arguably, you could spend the entire game in one system! So when you travel to a new system, what do you consider to have "explored" each planet/moon?

Do you go and find 6 waypoints?

Do you gather some nodes from each type?

Do you scan all flora, fauna, and minerals?

Do you time it? (ex. 1 hour per planet)

Can't wait to see what you guys normally do!

Why do bases built underground end up being buried? [Question]

I've built multiple bases that are either slightly built into the ground, or fully dug down as far as possible.

This is extremely irritating considering every time I teleport back to base I fall through the planet due my base being covered up again. Why does this happen?

Doors not snapping to biodomes [Question]

I'm running into an issue with holo doors snapping to both ends of a biodome. I posted a picture of what I'm trying to do, which I made previously in my normal save. I'm attempting to replicate it in survival and I can't get any door to snap to both sides. It just says "cannot build: invalid position/must attach to structure". It took a bit of finagling to get it to work last time...but not much. Doing the design in the exact same way in survival, I can only get some doors to snap, seemingly at random. Am I doing something wrong? Is this considered a glitch build or something? base

P.s. ignore the address. It's def. not Euclid and I can't remember what Galaxy I'm on in my normal game. I want to say #23.

NMS should have a mail system where we can send money from one character to another character that we have in another save game, also a bank system where we can keep the money, it would also be good for multiplayer, a series of guilds where we can be several players and explore space and other secrets about NMS together, NMS should also have a sales house system where we can sell S-class items like ships and weapons.

I think I walked in on something bad... [Question]

I was playing earlier and while at a station I was watching ships come and go. Two players clearly started "trading" ships (one was a living ship) when a nice fighter popped in. I decided to buy it and take it to my freighter. Once there I noticed it had "spewing vents" installed in the general area. What?

I left for work and came home now. I log in and the ship in-game no longer shows the vents, so I thought it was a bug, but I decided to check it because I do not want my save corrupted. Opening the save in NMS Editor shows "SHIPGUN_ALIEN" in a slot, but it does not appear in-game. It's like it isn't there.

Were these guys doing something shady and I got a bad ship? I am not loading that save until I know what is going on. I am not against using NMS Editor to delete the ship. I do not want to lose the save.

Massive Bug Issues (Help?) [Bug]

Hey guys, I’ve been experiencing an immense amount of bug-i-ness on my Expedition save. Half the time I land in a space station there are two spaceships merged with each other on the landing platforms clipping inside each other and there are two traders that when I go to speak with them just disappear and my screen bugs out for a second. Also, I keep clipping inside my freighter when I pulse drive towards it, and half the time when I try to enter the space station or a freighter, the landing procedure just doesnt work and I slam into the ship. Anyone know whats going on and how I can fix this? or can provide me some solace that I’m not alone in these bugs? thanks all.

Permadeath Circumnavigation Attempt [Fan Work]

FWIW, here's a playlist of my current permadeath planet circumnavigation attempt.

I started with a new game in a world in permadeath mode, found the ship to create a starting point, and am attempting to circumnavigate the world back to the ship again (via the south and north poles). I have no extra technologies, no way to make bases, can't even dig holes. I have to forage from the land to survive. Can I do it?

I'm live streaming them as I go. As of the end of part 7 I'm up to 44K units of an anticipated 720. Probably not that interesting to watch, but if and when I reach the end, I'll post an update.

Here's the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeBQHgzQN9x1DQ8Y4z-baWw1hSjGLcYIN

traveling to the center of the Galaxy [Question]

So I'm kinda new but I want to travel to the center of the Galaxy. I'm about 680k Light-years from the center of the universe. I've been thinking about using portal glyphs to get closer but I'm afraid it'll ruin the journey of traveling through many systems and doing quests along the way but it'll take me about 90 normal black holes so a long journey. Another question is how do I find the hyper blackholes (think that's what they're called?) That take you 300k + LY. Also also, when I reach the center of the universe. What exactly do I lose? I've heard upgrades, inventory, just damaged stuff, etc. But never got a solid answer. It someone can me what I exactly lose that would be very helpful. If it helps at all, I play on normal. Thanks in advance!

Anyone Know the Timing of Ships Landing at Outposts? [Question]

I'm trying to find a particular S class, obviously. So I portaled to the system, set down next to an outpost, created the save and started the reloading process. Every time I reloaded it only took a few seconds before the 5 ships landed and I would reload if there was no S.

But I realized I had too many and needed to get rid of a ship. After doing that I went back to the outpost and now it's a crap shoot. Sometimes when I reload no ships land for several minutes. Other times it's like before where they all land pretty quickly.

Does anybody know if there is a reliable way to get ships to land frequently or was I just lucky the first time?

The ship I'm after in case it helps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-k6f2MQPJg&t=95s

Is anyone out there and is this a debate? [Question]

Sorry if this is a newb question, I'm only 20 (wonderful) hours in but I'm curious. When we choose the "Play Game" option from the start, are we all in the same massive universe?

I'm not sure if this is a debate or not but I'm finding different answers online. I always assume it was one universe but I started noticing that when I click off the game or don't save, the environment remains the same as the prior save or resumes only when I'm back in the window. If this was all one universe, then I would expect the terrain to stay manipulated no matter if I saved or not. Does that make sense?

Definitely enjoying it either way but it would be kinda cool to know there's other people out there even if I'll never see them.

My ideas for a future update: What are your thoughts? [Discussion]

For a long time, I thought No Man's Sky should have the option for players to for a full-scale galactic war. I was talking with my friend recently, and he mentioned that he liked the war mechanics in Assassins Creed Odyssey. The player fight in a war between Sparta and the Athenian army. It is the player's choice of which side to fight for and win control of different areas. There is already a conflict level in No Man's Sky. I have thought of some ways it could be improved. Depending on the conflict level of different systems, low conflict systems should be a peaceful place where the different races in the game are mixed together. Different race pilots and settlements could be found on the planets and on board the space station. Medium conflict systems would be more isolated, and the different races would not have many interactions, similar to the current conflict in systems. The high conflict systems should be very dangerous with the constant threat of the different races attacking each other, where the player can join the fight and align with one of the races to gain rewards and higher standing with the different races in No Man's Sky. I would also like to see different factions among the races. There should be political authorities, controlled by the different races, alongside merchants and explorers, with different purposes during the war. I would also like to see controlled systems and outlaw systems controlled by the Anomaly race. Although they would not be as common as the Geks, Korvax, and Vy'keen, the Anomaly race needs to be a meaningful purpose for the Anomalies. I am sure the programmers of No Man's Sky could find a better way to implement these things. What are your thought, I would like to know in the comments section?

VR: Would you recommend the Meta Quest 2 or the Valve index for NMS? [Discussion]

Was doing some ship hunting and upgrading when I noticed that my ship inventory on my current exotic was exactly like a different ship I had.

Severe sturrering when looking around with good hardware [Question]

My hardware:

RTX 2070 Super

R5 5600x

16GB 3200MHz RAM

So the game runs at above 100FPS, I have optimised my settings and all but no matter how low I set it, it always stutters when I look around, no "fix" fixed it, no even the LowNumThreads or whatever. It totally ruins the experience for me, the FPS go down with unlocked FPS and when I hard lock it to 60 it still drops but in a weird way, so unlocked it runs at about 120-140 FPS and drops down to 90ish when the stutter occurs, but when I hard lock it to 60 it drops down to 50ish and so on, I have just 5 Mods installed and without them its the same. I tried everything I could find on Google but nothing helped.

Are you new player looking for some tips to get you started? Are you a veteran player with some advice you want to pass along? Looking for a good way to earn units, nanites or just how to get the most out of the game? Check out our new FAQ thread!

Here's some of the FAQ suggestions we received in our previous FAQ thread. Keep in mind that these are opinions from some of our valued OP's and you may agree or disagree with some of these. We just ask that everyone remains respectful when replying to this thread and we look forward to your contribution! NMSTG Mod Team

You can also drop a quick tip!

Tip #1: Always try to be doing multiple things. Pick up the portable refiner so you can refine something from your inventory while exploring and mining.

Tip #2: Avoid multiplayer until unlocking the anomaly, can be stranded if not.

Tip #3: Exotic worlds only have 1 fauna so it's easy to scan all of them.

Tip #4: Need glyphs? All 16 are on one planet here

Q- "I was on the Anomaly and a bunch of expensive stuff showed up in my inventory. What do I do with it? A:" Congrats! Another player has bestowed you with a gift. Most likely it is an item to sell for some quick and easy cash. Usually the item description will tell you what it is used for.

Q: "Help, I claimed a broken ship and now I can't find my starter ship! Is it gone forever?" A:" If you merely selected to "claim" the broken ship and not "swap" it, then your old ship is still around. If you left it with launch fuel in the tank, you can summon it with the quick-menu. If it does not have fuel, it can be summoned on the Anomaly (once you unlock it), your freighter (once you acquire one).

Q- "Are crashed ships worth repairing?" A-" Unless it is an exotic, no. Scrap the ship at the space station, sell the items it gives you, and use those units...

Ghosts in the machine issue! [Question]

I'm going through doing ghosts in the machine missions, but have hit a problem. I'm at the part where I have to visit a multitool trader on a Vy'keen system.

What upgrade is it I need to buy or is it any? I've bought multiple ones but I still can't progress.

Any help would be much appreciated

Questions about Expeditions [Question]

So I just got No Man's Sky last week and me and my friend just realized the rewards that you get from the expeditions are limited. We've been trying to understand how the transferring works and had a few questions about it. To our understanding once you complete certain requirements in the expedition on one file, you can then obtain them on any save from the guy in the anomaly correct? The next big question we have is, the rewards obtained from completing milestones: are we able to transfer those as well? My friend got really excited that one of the rewards is a void egg and is wondering if he can transfer it to his other character. I myself am wondering whether or not I would be able to transfer any currency that I have obtained into it. Cuz as a new player I have made quite a lot of money through this process of the expedition and I would like to have it on my main account. Thank you all for anyone who can answer these questions <3

Rant/Bug [Bug]

I was just online a little while ago, and a player kept spamming me with friend invites while I was on the anomaly. They finally stopped after a bit, but while I was looking through the selection of exosuit blueprints, they sent another request.

Still a little frustrating though.

Freighter rescue not spawning, going nuts [Question]

I’m at the end game after finishing the storyline then “refusing” to do the final mission when given the option

I’ve warped easily over 20x with more than 3 hours since the last battle I seen, no sign of capital freighters though. The last one I seen was easily within the limits of time and warps.

What’s wrong here, before this I couldn’t get travellers at stations anymore after the first 2 from what I assume was the Artemis line blocking me from getting them somehow or something.

There is something I’m missing right?

is this the best community or what? [Discussion]

First I must say that I'm relatively new to the game. it's been just one week and I'm really enjoying my time so far. Anyways I'm doing Artemis Quest line at the moment, haven't done economy crashing but i was trying to earn some money. Had around 12mil in my account yesterday while I was in Anomally, i noticed that someone has gifted me something. I opened up my inventory to find out that the goods that have been gifted to me costs around 500mil. I had to read a few times, i couldn't believe my eyes. I know these are just virtual bucks and earning money is not that difficult in NMS but rather grinding. Nevertheless that doesn't change the fact that a random stranger just gifted me this without expecting anything in return

Is there a way to thank my provider in this case? I used the emojis but by the time I realized what happened i think my provider was already gone :)

Please fix whatever code's responsible for spawning underground creatures. You're making me - a right completionist - super frustrated with your game! [Bug]

I've had it. Everytime I pick your beautiful game back up after an update I get mad at the way your code runs regarding the spawning of underground creatures. I've played your game from the start, and in the beginning chasing creature icons over the horizon for the one missing in your list was bad enough, but now it's even worse. I explore huge sections of underground content and NO creatures SPAWN underground. No, I have to go back to the friggin' surface, find a spot with a building where cavefloors are exposed to the surface and save-scum to have a CHANCE of underground creatures to pop up. It's hugely frustrating and I've spend hours upon hours wanting to complete a planet's list so I can move on with my life and my OCD...

Sorry for this rant, I love this game to death, but this is hours wasted where I should be having fun and where my mind doesn't let me!!

What is everyone's oldest solar system they've found? Like, for me, I just recently visited a system that was discovered six years ago.

This was potentially someone's starting system when the game was released and I consider it a piece of history to visit systems like this.

The following change regarding memes and IRL pics will be implemented to gauge how our valued community responds and the direction we take going forward. See comments for more details. [Mod Post]

In the past memes were a major part of the subreddit feed and played an important role in getting this sub off the ground. OP's would post humorous IRL pics or clips from an occasional movie or TV show followed by some comment related to the NMS game. As time went on however things began to go down a different path than what the subreddit was intended for and on any given day the sub feed would be comprised of 50% memes and 50% actual game related content. It was because of this that some months ago the decision was made to remove IRL pics from the sub feed and only allow memes taken directly from in game screenshots.

Now that things have calmed down we've decided to ease the restrictions and see how the community responds and if this is something our valued OP's would like to see continue or not. For the time being we will now allow IRL pics and screenshots from movies or TV as long as it is in some way related to NMSTG. Repetitive posts and meme templates that have been used ad nauseum will be removed.

Feel free to drop a comment on your thoughts regarding memes and IRL pics, we're interested in the communities opinion!

Horrible Lag/FPS Drops? [Question]

Just as the title states.

On my own custom built gaming rig. Specs:

CPU: I5 8500k 6 Core (upgrading to AMD Ryzen 9 5900X)

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060

RAM: 32GB total 4x 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200mhz (clocked out at it)

PSU: Corsair CW750 750w (everything is getting proper voltage)

MOBO: Gigabyte 3500H (upgrading to Gigabyte A520M AORUS Elite MOBO to upgrade alongisde the Ryzen 9)

Open Case with Corsair CPU Liquid Cooler and 4 fans total

Is it my hardware (looking at the CPU) or is this a gamewide issue regardless of rig? Anybody have a better rig and can confirm if it still persists?

Running the graphics through any setting doesn't change a thing regardless of barebones or not. Prior to the Blight, I never had to change from Ultra everything and got 144+FPS. Now I'm lucky if it stays above 80FPS and dips as low as 13FPS when landing or using the Scanner or sometimes for no reason at all.

Terminals repeating phrases-bug? [Question]

So I'm rather confused about something but I'm not sure if it's apart of the game intended or a possible bug because I'm genuinely unsure. For some reason, no matter what terminals I interact with, all of them say 1 out of 2 things. Haunted, forsaken, abandoned or any terminal inside abandoned buildings only say this string of text:

"Final data log awaiting analysis. Terminal now active. 'Hello world.' the terminal has nothing more to show me but this single phrase, repeated from system to system."

and any terminal found in the space stations behind the atlas pass doors will not let me do anything with them past the option "perform diagnostic" which I have read you need the remembrance to interact with (which I have) and I've beaten the Atlas and Artemis path questlines. However, my mom has done the same exact things I have, but her terminals are able to say different strings of text and she can perform the diagnostics, while I'm simply booted out of the way and can't use the terminal, or keep getting the same messages. This said, I'm not sure if this is a bug, or intended, but if there's any possible way to fix this if it IS a bug than I'm open to trying anything, and thanks for any help :) !

(If screens are needed I will do my best to get them as well!)

This highly adjustable scanner would allow you to search for planets with specific properties like planet type, biome, amount of sentinels etc. It would also allow you to search for animals like if you wan't a sandworm you can just scan for it mark the nearest system that has a planet with a sandworm on it and then just go to this system without having to search for years for your desired planet or animal

I need some help with doors [Question]

I'm trying to make an airlock system using buttons and power inverters, but it opened both doors at once then closed them. I want a system where I push a button to open one door, walk in before it closes, push a second button to trigger the next door, walk in. I have two doors, two inverters, and four buttons. I am in creative mode so power supply isn't an issue. Does anyone know how to set this up?

Crashed freighter logs. Am I missing lore? [Information]

Freighter Bridge/Hanger color doesn't change? (PS4) [Question]

Question in title. I got an S class freighter that I was really happy with. Repainted it to match my starship only to realize the outer hull around the bridge and hanger area remains the original color. Doesn't seem to be any way to change it even though the rest of the freighter is the color I want (interestingly that area is also completely absent when looking at the freighter model in the inventory menu).

I'm going out on a limb here but is there a fix for this? Is it just a bug they never patched? Is it on purpose to force players to hunt for the exact freighter they want?

Glitch or am I just blind [Question]

I did an Attack a Freighter mission I got from a pirate space station. All went well but I could only destroy 7 of the 8 cargo pods required. I strafed the ship from every angle multiple times and could not find the last cargo pod and couldn't see anything that resembled one. I got tired of fighting sentinels so I just gave up eventually but I was wondering if this was a glitch that the last pod wasn't there or not. I've had trouble finding cargo pods on derelict freighters so it's likely I missed it but I thought I'd ask the community just in case they know. Thanks!

I'm feeling stupid about not being offered a free freighter. Still no offer after fifteen warps [Question]

I'm a PC player with over 1000 hrs across many saves, so I thought I knew how to get the free freighter in my new save on the latest update. But after every five warps, I get no communication from the freighter asking for help, and no acknowledgement of my help after the space battle. I've gotten many free freighters in the past, and even successfully rerolled for the prized S-classes (not trying to flex, just trying to say I thought I knew the ins and outs by not shooting friendlies or the freighter, etc). But it sounds like I'm missing something.

I've rewarped many times from a manual save, and also flown straight to the space station where I create an auto save and reload from there... no positive result.

I've seen many other posts about this problem and haven't seen a successful solution or explanation. I suspect I'll just need to buy one at this point, but I've always enjoyed that fun bonus of a free freighter. Any advice is appreciated.

Strange PS4 question about sce_memory file for converting to XBOX [Question]

So after ~1,300 hours or so I’m looking to go from PS4 to XBOX Series X via the XBOX app on Windows 10. My Steam save has about 1,000 hrs but is a goof off save to test mods so that isn’t something I’m interested in using going forward on XBSX. My PS4 save is my primary save so it’ll be my target to convert. Here’s the problem. While I have saves literally dated today my sce_memory file is dated Sept 1st 2022 so when I use the method to convert this over to XBOX / Windows it shows old saves from 2021 despite my save slots showing today.

I’ve tried everything to get an update or new version of this file which includes; deleting a save, creating a new normal save, creating an expedition save, deleting the sce_memory file completely after and before these aforementioned steps and lastly trying to change various options to trigger an update. Nothing works. Strange thing about deleting it completely is the game still loads my current saves.

Does anyone know how to update this file or get a new one created? I REALLY wish we had cross platform saving so this wouldn’t be a problem.

Note: I do want to point out that the method of save conversion DID work, it’s just an older save from 2021.

What was this base I saw? [Question]

I don’t remember it exactly so my description might be off.

This person’s base was built around this…organ-looking thing that was red and grey, and it had a pulsating animation. It showed a name when I looked at it and it looked like it was mineable.

It wasn’t a curious deposit or anything like that. It looked like a heart or some sort of internal organ. I’ve never seen anything since and I can’t find anything on the wiki.

Is it related to something from an expedition?

(Steam) No Mans Sky will NOT stop running while using Razer Cortex optimize [Workaround] [Bug]

Recently I've been optimizing RAM with Razer Cortex to play No Mans Sky. I can exit the game but Steam will still show that the game is Shutting Down and won't let you start a new session without rebooting the computer. Just a minor inconvenience IMO.

When I check the Task Manager NMS doesn't show so it must be that the game is being kept alive in memory. So I figured the obvious culprit would be Razer. If you turn off Boost the game will reset within Steam and you can then click the Play button. r/RazerSupport

It is time to finish something that started so long ago… Olney Major. You stole my husband(‘s save file), and I’m determined to take back what is mine… I only need a brave pilot. [Question]

Or at least get there to slap down a base computer so I can get back to it. Today I found the pictures I took back in 2019 when he was stuck there and I was struck with this idea. IRL he has been dealing with way too much so I wanted to surprise him by building us a personal hideaway base hidden among 200 other bases in what was the longest-running mystery in NMS to him. It’s an escape inside his favorite form of escapism lol. Any kind iterations have the means to get there, and wouldn’t mind providing me a shuttle? I can offer something in return which we can discuss then. Olney Major was a mystery to him for so long after the bizarre experience when only trying to join a game with our kid. It was his first serious WT actual F moment playing NMS. I eventually went on to research it and find the whole story, but he never did. If anyone can offer help, it would be so appreciated! Otherwise, it was still cool retelling how we experienced our first heart attack in NMS 😂

PLEASE HELP I can’t get NMS to work in VR [Question]

I tried running No Man’s Sky but it was super stuttery and everything took way too long to load. It was playable but def not ideal. I realized it was because I was using a hard drive, so I upgraded to an SSD, and somehow now the performance is extremely worse, constant visual glitches and lagging that I wasn’t even getting on my hard drive. I’ve moved Windows, Steam, and NMS all to my SSD. When I open up task manager everything seems fine, GPU and CPU running below 50% and memory running at 75% (I have 16 gigs of ram with two mismatching brands of 8 gigs). I lowered all the in game settings as much as possible, turned the refresh rate to 80 Hz and even turned the resolution to 20%, all of these barely made a difference. I have a 2060 S and AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core and can run all other games at 144 Hz and 100% resolution minimum. I’m using an Index. Any help is appreciated because honestly I’m considering switching back to my hard drive to see if that fixes this. Also my performance graph is constantly yellow, orange, and red but under the 12.5 ms limit. Pink spikes are also common

Cannot Connect to Multiplayer [Bug]

I am unable to connect to multiplayer, there is no one at the anomaly, I cannot connect to community challenges etc... I am on Xbox Series X. This worked fine about 1 week ago.

When I open the game I press "A to begin" and it doesn't give me the option to play online or offline, it just makes me select one of 2 game saves and takes me straight in (offline). When when I go in game to options, there is no network option at all. I only have, "General Options, Video Options & Control Options".

The troubleshooting methods I have already tried are:

Turning Xbox off and on again

Restarting router

Taking out Xbox power and cold restarting it

Taking the game out of quick resume and then restarting

None of these have worked! I got a friend really keen to play and I cannot play with them! What is going on?

Some additions I would like to see [Suggestion]

I have been playing a lot lately and these are some changes/additions I would like to see. I have a couple other posts on the topic and some of these I've seen from others. Lay-Laps upgrades: Right now Lay-Laps doesn't seem to do anything outside of the missions he's tied to. I personally like having him active from time to time, has a cool Star Wars drone following me around feel. But I think they could really add a lot to it.

Maybe have installable upgrades for him, make him a specialized drone. Some upgrades might make it so he helps you mine or scan, this will result it you getting more materials when mining or more credits when scanning.

Others could be combat upgrades so he could deploy the Sentinel barriers or shoot lasers or the small plasma grenades.

I would also like to change his color scheme.

Fleet Management: I personally would like the option to change the color scheme of my fleet. It would look so much cooler if the entire fleet matched my freighter color scheme so we all actually looked like a coordinated fleet.

More Minotaur upgrades: I personally use the Minotaur almost exclusively, so naturally I would like more upgrades for it. Maybe S class thruster upgrades like the other exocrafts increasing its jump time and range.

I also would love to see a installable upgrade that maybe gives it a sprint. Really make this thing a combat exosuit. It feels more like the clunky loader bot Ripley fights that alien in.

Also, would really appreciate the ability to change the color once you have the Sentinel upgrades on it.

Anyway, that's all I got for now, thanks for reading and add any suggestions you'd like to see!

Can you miss out on getting the "Shroud of Freedom"??? [Question]

So I think I may have messed up.

Last week sometime I completed the "Under a Rebel Star" quest, activated the Ticket to Freedom, input the forged passport, yada yada, the whole works. However, I never got my Shroud of Freedom appearance modifier throughout my time in the quest. I also stumbled upon a pirate controlled space-station at random after updating the game and teleporting to a previous system. So my quest was sort of done out of order.

From everything that I've been able to gather, if the quest isn't bugged out, most people got theirs by speaking to members aboard a pirate controlled space-station, and asking about the "Voice of Freedom" while working on the "Under a Rebel Star" quest, and exploring the pirate space-station. My question is, have I missed my opportunity to get the Shroud of Freedom? Because my pirate npc's no longer have that dialogue option, I no longer have the Ticket to Freedom, the quest is LONG done and gone, and I've played for an entire week before realizing I may have missed it.

Thanks in advance for any help you may have!

Multiplayer Anomaly issue ( I believe ) [Question]

So, I started not that much ago ( like 3 days ) and every time I get into the anomaly with my ship I see some people running around, the thing is, when I get out of the ship, everyone paralyzes on the spot and I can’t neither talk to them or do anything but invite them to party. Is this a known issue or something? I have never played before so I have no clue what is going on.

How to avoid perma-locked Derelict Freighter doors [Information]

I think I found a nearly full-proof (or nearly full proof) way of making sure derelict freighter doors don't get perma-locked randomly. Sorry if this has been found before, but I have seen no real answers online and I think I have found a common method of avoiding it.

When trying to get open a Tendril Door (or a door that is covered in living slime that can't be opened until all tendrils have been shot off), you need to punch the last piece of the tendril door in order to make sure it doesn't stay locked. All other ones can be shot, but the last one holding the door together MUST be punched open.

All my attempts doing this have worked, and if I switched back to the normal method of shooting them all off, I would get the same glitch again. I think the glitch occurs because the tendrils are being shot off too quickly, and the door doesn't process that the last one has been removed because it all was removed nearly instantaneously. Punching it removes this issue, because it allows time for the door to register the damage being dealt.

Once again, sorry if this is a common repost, I just wasn't able to find answers online and this seemed like a good solution for anyone else who may have been in the same boat (or freighter) that I was in.

Framerate / stuttering / mouse teleporting [Question]

Self explanatory request for advice - when I run NMS on my laptop I get horrific stutter and lag. By all accounts it should run fine - laptop is as follows : 6GB RTX 2060, i7 10875H, 16GB DDR4, 1TB NVMe SSD.

Issues persist, albeit less severe, even if I turn down all settings to minimum. Based on the laptop specs this absolutely shouldn't be the case.

Drivers are up to date, and I have tried a number of things I've found suggested online such as resetting all settings to low and then increasing them again, turning the frame limit up past the refresh rate of my display etc. - nothing helps.

It runs perfectly on my desktop system, and other games (even more graphically intensive ones) run fine on this laptop.

Any ideas?

Detailed instructions how to find a settlement on a specific planet? [Question]

Okay, so I have a crappy settlement already from the mission you get automatically, but it is on a world with an irradiated atmosphere. I am currently searching for a Paradise planet to claim a new settlement on and abandon my current settlement. I am making sure the planet is in an inhabited system on a planet with few sentinels.

However, every time I find a suitable planet, no matter where I go on that planet, when I use the settlement map (and it actually works - most of the time it either does nothing and poofs out of your inventory or complains about locational interference) it always points me to a settlement on another planet. It's as if every Paradise planet I've tried (and I'm up to like half a dozen now) has no settlements anywhere on it despite the presence of trading posts and manufacturing facilities and all the other buildings that you would expect on an inhabited planet capable of supporting a settlement. I have looked at many YouTube videos of streamers searching for a settlement on an ideal planet, and some had the same issue, but they did not show a solution - instead they move on in the interest of time and say, "just keep trying until it works" - and I'm getting impatient and sick of moving a few feet/saving/reloading.

So, am I just super unlucky and there are apparently a ton of nice planets with just no settlements on them anywhere? Or is it just a matter of saving/reloading a million times and finding the exact right spot to stand on when I use the settlement map? If the latter, is there a reliable way to find the right spot on the planet to stand or is it just random luck? I have tried standing as far as possible from other planets (on the far side of the world where no/few other planets are even visible) as possible, but nothing seems to work.

I can land at the green landing area thats bugged inside the volcano at the freighter, but when i get out of the ship it boots me out of the inside of the volcano. Just to clarify:

I cannot land and get what i need from inside.

I cannot portal, black hole, warp, or anything out far enough way to reset the quest in the log. IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO RESET. Period. No matter how far. It even says so. This is not a fix.

Sentinel Interceptors/Fugitive Fighters [Question]

Basically I'm getting my butt handed to me a LOT! Before the last two updates (before I took a break) I was able to engage in space combat smoothly but I'm noticing that 1) my ship handling is slow and clunky 2) the enemy fighter's shields fully recharge before I can even swing around so it's repetitive and I'm not hitting them as accurately as I used to. It wasn't like this before and it's impacting my enjoyment of the game. If I want to die a lot I'll play Elden Ring.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think everything should be a cake walk, challenge is good, but it just seems like something is off. Maybe my ship needs better upgrades? Or there's some key aspect of gameplay I'm missing? Something changed within the last big updates?

The Lore [Discussion]

I’ve been thinking how most people who haven’t played no mans sky but have heard about it don’t get to appreciate an aspect of it no find the most interesting, which is the game lore. It’s not simply a sci-fi universe exploring game, although by and large that’s what it obviously can only be described as, but because we wouldn’t want to spoil the game I doubt most people explain the whole atlas story and how the game itself defines itself as a simulated universe that all the races/travelers/sentinels/iterations are merely trapped inside a mysterious experiment. I have enjoy finding different snippets of cryptic poetry about the nature of the atlas. It’s kinda just funny to me I’ve played this game for years and I feel like I intimately understand the atlas but could never explain it to anyone.

For instance,

items will no longer disappear if thrown out of inventory. They will instead drop as a model of their icon picture.

All chests, crates, lockboxes, and silos act as a small, portable storage

Also, a mechanic where batteries can be portable so whatever extra batteries players are farming can be carried into other bases with no electrical charge. This can lead to potential missions where we bring batteries and electricity to ships and settlements who need it.

Help with cargo slots [Question]

I had a fully upgraded S class ship where I'd maxed out all inventories. I logged back in after a hiatus and the cargo slots were empty and back to how I first found the ship.

Why does everyone say you can't choose/hunt for your first Living Ship? [Question]

I've seen a lot of claims that you're stuck with whatever design you get for your first Living Ship, and only if you do the quest a second time with a new Void Egg can you hunt around or use the NMSCE to find the ship you want. I'm confused as to why this would be the case. I've only done the Living Ship quest once and from what I saw (both from playing through it and from reading the wiki) whatever ship you get is tied to what system you're in when the final part of the quest fires off (aka when you go back through the Portal and reenter your normal ship). If this is the case, then why can't you do something like:

Find system coordinates with a Living Ship design you like (System A)

Go to the Starbirth system via a Portal from System A

When you return to System A through the Portal again, you should get the ship associated with that system

Would that work? If not, what is the reason why? Thanks

abilities: I am not sure about how easy this would be to programm because they are randomly generated but it would be cool for them to have some kind of abilities like ramming going underground stuff like that

training: this may sound like some stupid pokemon rip off but please hear me out so this training would be pretty simple you give pets random stats based on size and if they fly or are on the ground and then you can upgrade this so speed,stamina,attack,health

health: animals should not be invincible they should have some sort of health bar that if it runs out that they will go into a regenaration phase and are not able to be used for a few minutes

I used a teleporter on a space station and waited for about 5 minutes until I was greeted by a Stephen Hawking quote and the menu screen. I didn't die so I thought nothing of it, and since it was getting late I decided to hop off the game and go to sleep. The next day, I tried loading up to play for a little while but my save is gone. I was prepared to have my save deleted if I died, but I didn't even die so this just feels like a cock-block.

I had my steam cloud activated so I thought maybe I could get my save back with those. I also shot a message to the Hello Games support team. In the meantime, might anyone have a solution for my problem.

Also, please don't respond by lecturing me on the dangers of a permadeath save. I am aware of the consequences of dying and was prepared to face them. At some point I wanted to die so I wouldn't be addicted to the game for months on end. A long loading screen isn't the same as dying, so I would like my save back.

Excited about my wiki progress [Fan Work]

My last post about this was removed, I think I used the wrong flair as I'm not really "advertising" my civilization, but not my wiki progress.

I started a personal civilization last weekend. My goal is to discover and document enough territory that my empire rivals the largest of civilization out there.

I'm not actively recruiting until I get a bit more established. I don't have anybody irl to share it with but proud of the little progress I've made and wanted to share it with people who may take as much interest in it as I do.

Please help 3 ships randomly vanished [Bug]

Haven’t played in a while and just logged on to mess with the new update summoned my freighter and 3/6 ships are just missing. Not in the freighter and cannot be summoned. Am I missing something or did the update maybe change the ships and delete them? Luckily I still have 2 decent ships. One of the ships was a trash ship that I used to travel through black holes with to avoid damaging other ships

Can't find correct planet for Starbirth? [Question]

So, I have been stuck on this same mission for almost a month, and I am getting tired of it. I have all the pieces for my alien ship, fully grown, now it wants me to go and find a specific planet... easy, right? Well, for my friend it was easy. I have followed the map marker halfway across the galaxy, went PAST the center, and it still wants me to follow the little green line. And every time I warp to the end of the line, it just makes a new one. Am I doing something wrong? Is this horribly bugged?

Alternate Idea for custom ship colors? [Discussion]

so as a newcomer, i have some questions [Question]

first off, i played about ~90min at my friends place on pc on a new savefile. and i gotta be honest, at first i wasnt convinced. the first 2 planets seemed kinda boring and empty and the controlls REALLY take time getting used to, but then i finally discovered the space station and i understood how massiv this game is. also my friend told me pretty much nothing, he was busy and said "just go with it, youll get into it" but i feel like for such a massive game, i would appreciate someone giving me a push in the right direction lol.

tbh im not even sure what im trying to ask but i guess

is the main focus of the game gathering ressources and upgrading your stuff?

how much traveling and interacting with "lost logs on planets/talking to ppl" do i have to do?

is there a story system or did i just play the "tutorial"?

why does everyone say this game is by far the biggest game ever made when the games size is like 15gb?

what other parts besides collecting ressources would you say is a key part of the game?

how long does it take for the game to get "easier"? obviously after ~90min you cant tell much, but the controlls and the amount of items/elements i found is just confusing and overwhelming

is there a way to see how much i have of something while crafting? so for example wood wall, takes 25 something(i alrdy forgot) but it just says 25/25. do i have to open my inventory to check how much i have in total?

its kinda hard putting into words, im a bit unsure about the game. i guess im just looking for "feedback" if i should get the game or not.

i loved botw and elden ring for their giant wordl, but imo elden ring >>>>>> botw because theres so much you can do in elden ring. botw felt kinda empty.

would you say nms is a game you recommend me?

Trading up freighter class: what do I lose from my current freighter? [Question]

I have read a bunch of posts on this but I am afraid it still isn't clear to me.

What happens to the items in my current freighter's inventory?

What happens to the numbered storage containers built into the freighter base walls, and their contents?

"A trace of metal" - Sentinels will NOT stop spawning. [Bug]

Okay, I've been doing the "A trace of metal" quest line and I'm stuck immensely. I've made it up to stage 3 of the sentinel fight, but on this stage it says "11" remaining, and once it gets down to "5" remaining, it won't go any lower despite killing any sentinels left which normally there is about 2 remaining, AND the keep respawning once all of them are destroyed. I've tried the method of killing the normal sents, the mech then lastly corrupted, but that didn't work, I tried leaving the area, killing the sents in space up to stage 5 and they keep coming, but once I've left the area it says "unknown remaining." I've tried reloading, I've tried fighting them in space, on land, deactivating the forces with a pillar and everything. I'm not sure what else is left for me to do or try but if any help can be provided that would be great because this is my first and only settlement so I'm not sure if I did something to mess up the quest or if it's bugged, but even with extra help destroying the sentinels they just all instantly respawn.

Is it just just me or is building a lot more frustrating as of late? [Discussion]

I’m having a hell of a time getting pieces to go where I want them to go. Pieces rarely if ever want to snap where I’m trying to put them. I can’t seem to build a winding staircase anymore because of the auto-snap issues. I also can’t get a lot of floor pieces or the floor light to play nice with stairs. I’ve tried both legacy pieces and the new ones (which I’m not really a fan of). It’s gotten to the point where building just isn’t fun at the moment. I’m on the PS5 if that means anything to anyone.

Cannot spawn Freighter Battle (15 warps/5+hrs) [Question]

A bit of information to help you help me. I am freighter hunting for an S-Class. I was hunting a different Freighter, but found one I like more. So, I went to follow the standard freighter hunting method, and the new Freighter never spawned. Here is the rest of the information you will undoubtedly need.

  • Started playing non-stop for around 6 hours. (A few of those hours were in different galaxies than the freighter)

  • Lost count of how many warps but I am confident it was 15+. (Warped with my starship, not my freighter)

  • I got The Dreams of the Deep mission and I completed it thinking it may have been blocking me.

  • My freighter's system does not have a black hole.

  • I already performed the Settlement quest, but I do have some active construction.

  • The system belongs to Pirates, and does not have an economy. However, I have warped to systems with an economy, and still nothing spawns.

This is the freighter I am working for:

what do your play sessions look like? [Question]

So im about 130 hours in and I've spent the bulk of that looking for a picturesque planet to build a farm on (I decided I wanna be a pleasure space farmer) still yet to find one (everything i find is predominantly warm tones with red skys and craters that make it look like pizza) mixed with some building and then rage nuking my projects. Finished the campaign and the underwater side missions. Where the hell did yall learn about finding glyphs? I'm yet to see anything mentioning needing to find them... I may have missed that

I'm wondering what yall do when you're playing is it basically what i stated above? And what do you do that keeps it interesting? I see alot about exploration. But when I do it it's like run one way for a few minutes. Maybe find something. In and out of the ship a few too many times. Scan some shit. Move on.

I came up with a list of things I wanna achieve in the game, one being to get s class Mines on everything that yoy can get. But im just trying to understand how you keep the game from getting monotonous.

The fact that the planets seem to be entirely the same all the way around kinda compounds that.

People Without Twitter - How Do You Get Your NMS/ HelloGames Updates? [Question]

Ship Customization Idea [Suggestion]

Okay so I was reading through a thread regarding ship customization and wrote out a wonderful idea in the discussion that I would like to share with you all. I'm hoping it doesn't upset shiny hunters but still gives us the customization we crave.

The basic idea would work like this: we get a quest from either our freighter or the overseer terminal at a space station of a new business opportunity; scrapping starships for profit and for creating our own. After a few classic NMS fetch quests to get the machinery needed for the endeavor, we get the option to break salvage ships for a little profit and progress towarda that ship's body/style to fabricate it as our own. Of course the class rules still apply, no need to break all the rules. I would suggest exotics are scrappable but not recreatable to maintain their exotic status, but all other ship types are up for fabrication.

When searching for a specific ship piece, let's say the fighter barrel nose for instance, you would need to salvage a certain number of fighters with that nose to fill a progress bar in order to unlock that particular style, and I would probably say it would safely work the same with colors. The ship class can add a little more towards the progress bar (so an S class fighter adds, say, ten percent while a C class adds three percent).

After completing the research, we could go farm materials for the actual fabrication process with rarer ship pieces needing rarer materials. Then we can add a fabrication timer when it begins building to encourage an exploratory gameplay loop while it's building. I would say add an inventory system for built parts so we can see several options before building a ship, preferably separated by ship type and piece (wings, engines, cockpit, etc) to reduce confusion.

When you prepare to fabricate a ship, you would get a holographic display of selected pieces before you finalize the...

Story missions break the flow of the game [Suggestion]

Hello everyone, I have one small gripe with the game and story progression.

Most story missions are arranged in the sense of tutorial walkthrough setting up the next logical step of your journey and getting to know mechanics at your disposal.

Problem is - most of this mechanic you discover long before they are officially introduced. And even then anomaly is locked in your first few hours into the game which leaves you without the upgrades and schematics if you set your own goals and rush towards them.

It is very annoying. The real culprit for me are the missions that require you to go to the certain type of building/place, for example travel to the trade post and speak there to the aliens or go to the observatory, etc. They are require you to go to the specific location. When naturally you would like to go and explore elsewhere, maybe you found a planet you like or a resource, you want to explore there, not the place the marker sets.

One simple question: why can’t any observatory I come across work? Why can’t any trade post I find work? Why all quests require you to go the specific location in the system you are currently in. It break the flow of discovering and progressing. They should go hand in hand and be at conflict with one another.

Having guidance where the place might be is good and it helps new players but having an exact set location without your own input and your own discoveries being invalidated because quest markers is mind-boggling and very frustrating.

I don’t want to go to the fifth planet I don’t like to find the stupid abandoned building dozens of which I came across previously. I want to explore the planet I adore and move on to the next best thing.

Simply make objectives “floating” not fixed and the whole problem is solved.

just thought of a cool idea... Player trade terminal [Discussion]

The player trade terminal would allow players to post trade requests, but it's more than just that. When you access the terminal you can post a request and an offer. Say you're looking for salvaged frigate modules but have a ton of storage augmentations, You could place a number of instances of trade, 1 salvaged frigate module for 1 storage augmentation. The augmentations are automatically removed from your inventory and stored in the trade terminal until someone accepts the offer and delivers salvaged frigate modules. They then receive the storage augmentations and you'll need to stop back by the terminal to pick up your new items.

Though this would be a cool idea in theory, the current use of save editors and duplication bugs makes adding this a difficult prospect to think of unfortunately, but wanted to throw this out there to see what people think.

PCVR vs PSVR on PS5? [Question]

Coop Missions & Difficulty Questions [Question]

As the title says. Never seen another soul in anomaly or in expeditions. It's like I'm always playing in single player mode, only I'm not. Discovery services is green, so I can upload my bases and discoveries, but like I said I've never seen another person, ever.

By now I've lost all hope to be honest. I still love and play the game but I'm missing the experience of being with other players.

What I have tried so far:

  1. Antivirus and firewall exceptions for all executables of NMS

  2. Disconnecting/connecting ethernet while playing

  3. Logging in and out of my windows Microsoft account

  4. Deleting my saved games and letting the game restore the folder from the cloud

  5. Changed Time/Date Setting to UK (normally have them set for Greece)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thoughts on hauling stuff like as a trader? [Discussion]

I just got into this game and dropped like a few hours on it. I already have this big plan to get like the biggest cargo ship possible while still looking cool, putting like the coolest combat ships in my squadron and having them fly around with me as roleplaying as a trader flying to different systems with protection. I want to get a bunch of like super high level trading ships for my capital ship and from what I've seen you can customize those, so I want like a completely money focused character. So far I've been doing like deliveries I just enjoy that kind of gameplay and wanted to know if that kind of playstyle gets love from the community, I know obviously people more into combat are more plentiful, but is there like a decent amount of content on my side of the community.

Some serious additions [Suggestion]

The ability to companion battle

-Think Pokémon but its galactic and many many offspring can be eligible, no they don’t die but they have a station to go to where you revive them from incapacitation (This one is a stretch but worth a shot) The ability to challenge other players (typically in anomaly) to dogfight or 1v1 or a specific hi designed around pvp made to suit players looking for more than pve action.

-to me this could be expanded on a lot and think gta v’s player menu but in no mans sky -no death where you lose things but rather place unit based bets on who wins An overhaul on the ui and player greeting menus and trading

-the ui to change perspective is a bit excessive and I’d like a key I can just press to 1st to 3rd person

-A trade menu between players where it’s sort of a trade table rather than just give someone something close to you and both players have to agree on traded items

-maybe an animation the same way in vr you need to open a tablet device to view your quick access menu, 1st or 3rd person pulls out tablet and opens map

-(I feel this can be ui related) a map on planet or on space station so I don’t have to fly into orbit to view the galaxy map. It kills so much time imo if you struggle to keep names of galaxies A radio frequency for your squad or crew

-a radio frequency to I guess change parties between team/group to open/public mic for in the anomaly

-with the music system I’d like to be able to have my friends tune into the radio frequency I’m on playing music (This one is def a stretch)

Lmk what everyone thinks. I have more ideas but these are the first that come to mind as far as quality of life go. Happy n safe travels!

Friends only see un-updated base [Question]

Apologies if this has been asked an answered. I built a pretty simple base and uploaded it via the Base Computer and a few friends came and visited it. I then made some edits to it, reloaded it, yet they still see the "old" version from a few weeks ago. Is there a technique to get them to see the latest version that I re-uploaded?

Thanks in advance.

Does any one have the issue of lingering curser movement on controller?? [Question]

I thought it was just my controller, tried a new one, then played with some one with a next gen system that has the same problem.. just curious as to if it’s a problem with the game as a whole or if it’s our specific controllers or even just PlayStation 4 & 5?? Because even who I was playing with said it works fine and doesn’t do it on any other games soooo yeah jw

Firespray-hull Explorer starship covers the crosshair [Question]

My favorite ship is an Explorer with a Firespray hull. But the top of the hull is so high, it appears directly in front of the crosshair when the camera is in "Flight View". This prevents me from seeing what's actually in the crosshair in front of the ship (unless moving the camera to the side).

I tried changing the "Flight view angle" to 100 in the settings, but it didn't help much. I'll try to get a screenshot if needed.

Are there settings I missed, which would make the camera go higher than the ship? Or further increase the view angle beyond 100? Or a way to make the camera trail the ship from farther away?

Edit: forgot to mention I'm playing on the PS4.

as a total noob (like 4 hours) i found someone elses base, am i "stealing"? [Question]

so it showed me a base of someone whos not in my steam friendlist and who build this base 3 years ago, i went there and its massive. the owner has 4 vehicles stored and well you know. i just took one and was cruising around the planet. did i steal their "fuel"? is the user gonna come back and blast me away with a gun? apparently their teleporter even got registered.

can i use their storage containers or will they just take my stuff? considering they are all empty, i assume each player has their "own storage"?

A late thank you to a pc player... [Information]

I decided to play late last night and did a Nexus mission with another player. They were on PC is all I can tell you because I was too far away from my tv to read their username, but to said person if they are on here: Thank you. I saw about 5 min after we parted ways that you had given me three full (9999) stacks of activated indium. If you were trying to give me more, I'm sorry. My exposure inventory was full of crap I hadn't sold yet.

If the said player is on here, and you can't remember who I am, you helped a Playstation user named bownarrow22 destroy hostile plants for units and an ass load of larval cores.

Salvaged Frigate Modules [Question]

Hello! I’ve recently got my dream freighter and I’ve been trying super hard to get some Salvaged Freighter Modules. I’ve read online that the fastest way is to hit random freighters and check their cargo pods but I’ve tried to reload about 10 times in 10 different systems with only finding 2.

Next I’ve been doing Derelict Freighters back to back and enjoy the crap out of them! The only down side is I seem to only get 1 maybe every 2 runs or so. I’ve also done this in multiple systems.

Are there any more effective way to get these modules? Or do I just need to hunker down and keep the grind going?

The game runs very poorly on PS4 - Xbox One (Base) [Discussion]

Nearly unplayable fps

Very noticeable pop in that can make the game look like complete trash at certain moments.

Slow down/freezing

I love this game and have played it for years on my base PS4, I know we're at a point now where that system is considered outdated but even so, I'm kinda sad that I can no longer play this game on the system bought it for.

This is by no means a hit piece on Hello Games, I love the game they've crafted and the updates they've put forth over the years. The amount of progress put into this game puts other companies to shame but still, there's a part of me that feels a little jaded over the fact the game can no longer run on the older hardware. Let me be clear though, it can run, you can put the disk in and it is playable but it's far from a fun experience anymore. I do plan on getting a current-gen system sometime in the future and hopefully when I do my love for this game will return and I'll be able to fully enjoy its awesomeness once again.

If Only We Had Third Person Back Then [Discussion]

What do you fellas think the original player character looked like? Whenever I look at promo or concept art I think the character looks like they're wearing just regular pants, a weird, all red helmet, and some sort of hoodie to me. But when I look at the Atlas Rises Poster/artwork thing, it looks like an actual spacesuit. However, the Aeration Membrane upgrade looks just like a Korvax casing. And obviously now we can customize to be almost whatever we want. I just wish we could unlock that hoodie thing at the nexus

Exotic Ships and battles. [Discussion]

To the person that posted about exotic ships showing up after battles. You were correct.

Every time you warp into a system and directly into a battle, if you defeat the pirates, answer the freighters hail, do not go to freighter but fly directly to space station, some sort of exotic lands. I have tried this 8 times and all 8 times something has landed.

Better GPU/CPU to run NMS? [Question]

I am currently playing No Man’s Sky with a GTX 1050 GPU and Intel i5-9300H CPU. It runs ok overall, and can maintain 30 FPS when outside of ship. However in times when docking or sometimes flying, it can absolutely plummet in FPS.

I am not super well-versed in this type of thing, as the only other game I’ve played on PC is GTAV. Is it a GPU problem, CPU problem, or both? And if so, what should I get to replace them, hopefully not too expensive ($300 or less) but just enough to let it run consistently.

Cracking Void Egg [Question]

So after a whie I came back to the game, and now I just remember I have a cracking void egg on my inventory. I already have a living ship, and last time I remember the game pretty much guided me through the whole questline, so to speak, with the log.

But this time i have nothing on the log, and the egg description only tells me that it's moving and wishpering things (a bunch of words i pressume are the portal glyphs).

Anyone knows what to do next? Did it somehow bugged? Thank you all for your time and aswers.

Flight interface [Suggestion]

I feel like when you are flying third person the hud should change to what you see if you are flying first person (speed,direction, planet details etc…) also when you receive a communication the hologram should just pop up instead of putting back into first person I feel like it’s a lot to just have someone talk to you… any have thought ideas!?

So I renamed my Golden Vector after a fantastic realisation of space and gold sent into space [Information]

I have renamed it “The Sounds Of Earth”. For those who are asking yourself “why??… that’s kind of a silly name for such a cool ship”. Let me give those who don’t know a small history lesson; In 1977 2 twin spacecrafts/probes were launched into space to study Jupiter and Saturn and the outer most parts of our solar system and beyond. After their primary mission of studying said planets, they were (for lack of better words) sent into interstellar space. 2 very specially things were carried on each of them, a gold plated copper record called The Sounds Of Earth which contained pictures, sounds, and the location of Earth so if said spacecraft were ever intercepted by extraterrestrials, they would not only know where it came from, but what Earth contained and what type of creatures inhabited it.

I feel the renaming of this ship is very, very appropriate considering what NMS is as not only a game but as an idea of interstellar exploration. Feel free to rename yours after reading this if it makes sense to you, but I think it should have been named that in the first place.

Looking for advice from anyone who has used the save editor for Xbox Gamepass [Question]

I’ve seen a few people reference using any computer that can run the Xbox app to edit a save and that it doesn’t even have to run NMS as long as it can sync the saves. I made it as far as syncing and editing the save but getting it synced back to Xbox has been an issue. This laptop does not have a graphics card that supports vulkan so NMS crashes just after the initial title screen.

It does load long enough to sync the save from Xbox and I’ve had no issue finding that and editing it, but I’ve yet to get the save to sync back to Xbox. Editing the save seems to update the last time played so I assumed once it saw a newer save it would sync to the cloud. Just looking for some advice from anyone that has actually done this, it’s looking like you don’t just need a PC that can sync saves but it needs to at least be able to load a save in-game. Any advice would be appreciated

does upgrades need to be next to the main technology? [Question]

what i mean is does jet pack tech upgrades need to be right next to the jetpack in my exosuit inv? i know the upgrades need to be next to each other in order to stack but i’m just asking if they need to be next to the main tech they’re upgrading to work.

the reason i’m asking is cuz when i put them together the main tech, in this case the jet pack has the same gold outline as the upgrades when i put them all together

New NMS Player, What Happens in 2 Days? [Question]

Hey I started playing like 2 months ago and then the Expedition started a couple weeks after. I was confused that the event couldn't just run alongside our 'Normal' save file, but ever since, I've been playing exclusively on the Expedition save file.

In 2 days, do the save files merge together? Will it make me pick one to focus on for the main game? Do I get to access everything I accumulated on my Expedition save in my Normal save?

My first planet [Discussion]

Started playing this game tonight, ended up on a toxic damp planet at the start. Go with the usual find things to keep your suit active and alive and eventually I wander into a cave system. At this point I have what I need to repair my ship, so I'm trying to get back to it. Found some gold in a stalagmite thingy so I got pretty excited about that. And as I continue to wander the cave system I see an odd plant. I pick up the plant and suddenly get a notification that sentinels are after me. Needless to say, I'm in a corner of this cave at my wits end cause I definitely was not ready for sentinels. I open my inventory and see a gravitino ball wort 40,024 units!! My jaw bout hit the floor. And there was 5 more just waiting for me. I was huddled in the cave a bit longer just waiting to get rkoed by a sentinel but nothing came and now I have to find my way out of this cave system.

Tldr: accidental exploration leads to 240,141 units of gravity balls and some gold and a very spooked space lad
