Newbie's about to leave because of a super simple thing [Discussion]

How is it justified not to have the storage as a basic blueprint that is immediately acquired ? I'm 3 hours in, it's my first time playing this game and I'm literally stuck because I'm completely full. I'm using refinery as a storage ! Honestly I'm not even sure I'll start the game again, looking at tips it seems I have to get "further in the story" to get it Just give the storage furniture as a basic like any other game of the genre

Need help in finding a crashed freighter [Question]

Can anyone offer a good way to locate a crashed freighter? I am so frustrated how this Expedition is hanging me up on this, it is out of hand.

Ive tried TONS of emergency planetary charts and only get crashed ships and abandoned buildings, no crashed freighters.

Ive tried signal booster countless times and get no crashed ships.

Ive hopped plants and galaxies and am at a loss.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Exp 7 start planet MT question [Question]

Need help generating an A class experimental MT The Leviathan starter system land at SS reload now the MT case has C class Blue & Yellow Experimental. I made a base at a minor settlement that has an A class MT case. I have been able to get a 23 slot A class rifle but I’d love to get the experimental from the SS. I have saved & reload on each planet & the SS & then returned to the A cabinet. Only 3 planets so I thought this would be easy. 😳 On 2 trips I did use the SS teleport to get back the my base. Was this a mistake?

infinite sentinels? [Question]

Hello spacefarers!

I was tending to my colony last night and we were attacked by rogue sentinels. Nothing too crazy, I went about killing them but something weird happened when I killed the last one...

The notification on the bottom right (the one that says how many are left) just went from 1 to 6 as soon as I killed the last wave. Low and behold, 6 sentinels (rogue) popped into the center of my colony. I killed them, but it happened again! I went through 7 or 8 iterations for shards but then just left out of boredom. I ended up getting around 5k nanites for my trouble.

I've already finished the [censored] quest line, so I don't think it has anything to do with that.

Is this a known issue? I don't really mind as it seems to be the best way to get nanites quickly. If there's some trigger, I'd like to know what it is so that I can repeat it. TIA!

Lesser known tips for Expedition 7: Leviathan [Information]

Hey I just completed the expedition in a little over 5 hours and figured I'd share some tips for things I don't think are talked about as much, and can save time, or more your life/progress.

Before I start, I should preface that you'll need units. Do your thing, crashed ship flipping, cobalt/chlorine, w/e. I used my twitch drop ships to sell. Shutting down a sentinel pillar.

Finding a sentinel nest in the wild is beyond lucky. Fighting 5 waves of sentinels on permadeath, is risky. Buying suspicious goods packets from the merchant on outlaw space stations is a safe way and imo the easiest.

There's an outlaw station along the route to an anchor system, make sure you look out for the skull in the galaxy map. I didn't have a conflict scanner installed, but since it was part of the path it showed up. I believe it's the system before the 3rd anchor system. You can also buy your smuggled goods here to sell in the next system.

Back to suspicious goods packets. You want at least 10. So keep buying them as the merchants stock replenishes. Now make an auto save with your ship. Open all 10 and see if you get a sentinel boundary map, if so, great, if not, reload your save and try again. I got 2 in the same batch on my 4th try.

I'll also add that the technology ones drop great warp drive upgrades. And if you wanted to buy a ton of tech goods and then sell the upgrades you get out if them fir nanites, you can too. Killing 20 sentinels.

Buy a secure facility map from a cartographer. You want a manufacturing facility. You can make an auto save in the station, and reload it if it discovers something else. Fly to the MF, shoot down the door, and run inside. The sentinels will follow you in but not attack inside. It's quite safe this way. Storm Crystals

Sadly you have to collect these in the wild, and need stellar warp drives to access colored systems. Or do...

Confused about current leviathan expedition [Question]

So I get that it's permadeath, but uhh, there is no save?

For example I had to leave for a bit and went back to the main menu, when I returned all I can do is start a new expedition.

Granted, I hadnt found my ship nor did I craft a save device, is this a expedition where you can only sit down and are forced to play it nonstop?

Or can we actually save and return to it later? (not save scumming, but actually able to like go take a poo, eat some food, do real life tasks and pick up where left off?)

Rouge-Like not working? [Bug]

So, I died as the game requires you to do to even progress past phase 1, and upon loading up the expedition again it just deleted all my expedition progress.

As in no check mark for dying or anything, it just restarted the ENTIRE expedition. Allow me to clarify again, it did not just reset my progress, it reset the ENTIRE EXPEDITION. How on earth do I make this not happen? I'm already not big on the roguelite thing but this is ridiculous.

Concept for Ship Customizing/Hunting [Discussion]

This would still let you hunt around if you want to optimize your ship. Basically, one can build their ship part by part, but in order to do so, they have to hunt down ship parts from space stations.

These parts would function shop-wise just like part upgrades: each ship part type can have a varying grade, and each one affects stats with a tradeoff. For example, the double box on a hauler boosts max inventory/cargo but reduces maneuverability because look at it. The higher the rank of the part, the better the stats (generally speaking, it varies a little). Thus, to optimize a ship they have to travel from station to station.

As for paints... they'd be free, since ship parts would cost an arm and a leg, and the idea is to have literally every color on the hexadecimal range. Assigning costs to them is too much.

Unfortunately, this would require basically a rebalance of the ship system. So the idea is that you can either spend time hunting a ship, or spend time assembling your dream ship, with it being the culmination of your efforts.

Ugh... This expedition suffers from the jankiness of the existing issues of the game. [Suggestion]

Aggressive wildlife keeps randomly teleporting 40+ units to me then one shots me. They will aggro while I'm deep underground (trying to just get a minor respite from the non-stop hazardous planet assault) and blammo, I'm dead. Or I will see one about 40 to 50 units away, the game announces that I've engaged it (I haven't) and after about a minute it suddenly teleports above me, then pecks me once and I die. 50% of the time when I die, the game crashes, I have a Ryzen 5900 w/ Nvidia 3080 There is like nothing on hand at each of these locations I keep getting tossed into, to actually allow me to Progress Keep myself alive

I'm not sure exactly what y'all thought you were doing with this, so far it's more obnoxious and miles away from any level of entertainment, and ha ha sorry this isn't roguelike at all.

Settlement gives me purpose! [Information]

I got the game ages ago on launch for PS4. Played it for a while but got bored as you do. Came back recently when I got a PS5 and was wandering the stars, trying to find purpose in my playthrough when I came across a Gek Settlement in need of assistance. I helped them with their sentinel problem and then decided to stick around. Best decision ever!

I'm in love with the place. Admittedly it's a C class settlement, tons of debt, on a radioactive planet but I can't help but find comfort in the place. I'm looking forward to clearing the area, helping to expand and improve the settlement and helping to make a better life for those Gek. Plus the settlement is right next to a Plateau so I intend to make my own base overlooking the place. I forsee many hours of content making this new settlement, new planet and new system into a home! Look forward to many screenshots in the future!

Frequent Stuttering with a RTX 3080. [Bug]

I recently sent in a 3080 that I purchased shortly after they released for RMA. I received the same model card back, which I assume has been nerfed for miners since it is likely a LHR card. The game is now a stuttering mess. Unfortunately I didn't take note of my previous graphics settings, but I'd assume they were maxed as "ultra", 2560x1400 resolution with a cap of 120fps.

After loading the game now, I see very frequent stutters, espcecailly when rotating the camera or when new planets come into view. I tried various xml tweaks, nvidia tweaks, etc but nothing seemed to work. I turned all my settings down to the lowest setting and found there to be no stuttering. I worked my way up to enhanced and still no stuttering. As soon as I hit "high" I again see stuttering. I began tweaking individual settings and immediately saw improvement when I dropped the texture setting down to standard. In fact, I was able to max out my settings to ultra, and as long as I kept the texture setting set to enhanced I saw no stuttering.

The notes alongside the texture settings indicate that anything above 8GB of vram should be able to play at ultra texture settings. My 3080 has 10GB vram, and I am only able to play at textures that 4GB vram should provide. What gives? I have also reformatted my pc, and have reset my bios to default settings.

Two questions, what is your favorite gameplay aspect of the game? And what is your honest opinion about the story of the game? [Discussion]

There is a lot of content in this game, and a lot of people like that. There is also a lot of beautiful scenery in this game which people obviously are a fan of. But the gameplay itself hasn't really changed from the early days. It is still essentially the same gameplay loop from launch, but just now with a lot of things to use it on, which I guess makes it not feel repetitive.

But I wanna know what your favorite part of the gameplay is? Something you can actually do I mean, like summoning The Anomaly and stuff.

Same with the launch thrusters, buy DI-Hydrogen Jelly, and keep it in the ship, you can refine it into di-hydrogen. The jelly stacks better than the di-hydrogen.

Having problems finding carbon/ferrite, feels like it’s taking too long? Once you get your ship in the air you can carpet bomb for all the carbon and ferrite you need. Find clusters of plants and photon cannon them. Refine the ferrite and carbon as needed.

Cobalt and sodium are the only base sources that aren’t super easy to find.

And with the way pirates work in this expedition, you wanna have a fat stack of sodium and sodium nitrate to fight those pirates without fear. Sodium nitrate is usually pretty easy to buy. But it’s a 3-4 ammonium to sodium nitrate. Wouldn’t recommend taking on any fight without some kind of backup with sodium. Or if you can the star shield batteries.

You can still shoot into caves to quickly farm cobalt, but (at-least for me) it’s hard to find caves to shoot into. If you can manage your economy it’s easy enough to buy.

Help completing the phase 1 optional objective [Question]

Hey guys,

So I've completed phase 1 and I've handed in multiple "liquid sun", "ancestral memories" and "somnal dust" to Polo yet it simply will not complete the objective. It says it will complete at 6% and I am currently at 5%, with it not changing irrespective of how many items I turn in.

I know it's an optional objective but not having it complete is messing with me, and the missions to turn them in to Polo just reset so I'm worried something is bugged. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Trapped on a water planet - how do I COLLECT oxygen for crafting? [Question]

Out of launch fuel, but if I can get 30 oxygen I can craft a refiner and disassemble my terrain manipulator for the di-hydrogen jelly and be on my way. But whenever I come upon something that has oxygen underwater, it just refills my the tank I'm actively using to breathe. Do I just have to collect a lot at once? Or am I boned?

Yes, I'm a noob.

Will Expedition characters stay perma death when the Expedition ends? [Question]

Hi folks,

I just started NMS and after going through the tutorial parts of the normal game I started an expedition save.

I realize a perma death expedition isn't exactly noob friendly and I'm absolutely fine with that. However I would not want my "long term save" to be a perma death one, so I'm wondering if the character will stay perma death when the expedition ends, or if it'll be converted to a "Normal" difficulty save.

Has there been any statement regarding this? How has this worked with Survival expeditions in the past?

What happens when you die in Expedition 7? (Spoilers) [Discussion]

Some stuff I learned: You lose all your stuff and earned inventory slots You lose all your pets You lose construction blueprints you learned You keep discoveries on planets you made You lose discovered space stations You keep your frigates - I had my original frigate and the Normandy which was even still on-mission! You lose your storage You keep any bases you built (those anchor points!) Any claimed rewards from previous loops will re-appear in the Nexus (including the Normandy, but no, it didn't spawn another one) "Shared memories persist" - I have no idea what this means; nothing persisted "Rewards improve with each loop" - They really don't, unless I'm missing something.

Expedition 7 bug - Final reward (Leviathan Frigate) [Bug]

​

The 5 phases of the expedition 7 have been completed. All rewards have been collected. However, when I am at the Final Loop page, I could click on the octogonal banner and it will bring me to the Log tab and state that my save will now be converted to a normal save etc, and no Leviathan frigate at the synthesis companion on all my characters.

Thus, I think the "Final Loop" page which also showed 0/5 phases completed, did not register my completion of the Expedition.

Getting back into the game what can I expect? [Question]

Hey guys, been lurking for a couple weeks and I have to say this is one of the coolest subs on Reddit.

​

I played in 2020 but havn't really logged in since then so I am looking to find some answers.

​

Does the narrative pick up more than it used to with the mystery of who you are and what not?

​

Now that multiplayer is more of a thing have players gathered on any planets and started creating towns/cities?

​

I was having problems before with never having enough fuel to take off and land as much as I want to. Do you still need to be as careful about not landing by mistake because the fuel needed is scarce?

​

What about group exploration? Has that kind of thing started yet because that was what I was originally looking for in NMS.

​

I also read recently that I shouldn't start a new game until a week or so after the whale update since Hello Games is a pretty small studio and it sometimes takes them a minute to find and work out any bugs that may have been missed in the patch. Is this true?

​

​

Thanks for anyone who takes the time to answer. It sounds more and more like this game is becoming what many of us wanted it to be and that is great news.

Expedition 7: can’t turn in Liquid Sun to Polo [Question]

Forgive me if I’m just stupid; this is my first expedition, and first time playing in a couple years.

I’m letting the on-screen tips guide me through this, and right now I’m in phase 1, I’ve just harvested the stack of Liquid Sun as requested by Polo, and it’s telling me to turn it in, but Polo basically refuses to talk to me. It just says it’s busy and to keep exploring.

I did notice that the HUD marker for the Anomaly is an hourglass. Are checkpoints like this time-locked? I screwed around for about an hour but it hasn’t changed, and I’m seeing people on this sub talking about completing the whole expedition in just a few hours (which is mind-blowing).

Avoiding permadeath: is it possible? [Question]

Hello, I'm very new to NMS and am just wondering about how deaths are computed/stored in expedition. If you are moments before death and you Alt-F4 and reload, will you load in to your previous save file? Is the death triggered client side, or server side?

How good is the application security of NMS? I noticed that people are able to use mods that sometimes significantly modify the gameplay experience. Is there a mechanism to prevent people from loading a backup save file in the case of a character's death?

My intention isn't necessarily to cheat, although I am certainly interested in ways to prepare myself for the inevitable.

expeditions are exactly the content that has to be rolled in main game to improve exploration [Suggestion]

As per title.

Build some variations around them and you have adventure you could live in the main game.

Like story you have in sea of thieves. Some of those elements can also be implemented to improve the overworld generally.

It would improve the exploration part of the game so much.

And combine this to old, half finished content to improve them and you could have a really good updates!

Imagine instead exploring derelict freighter, you explore a cave or a base in the same way. Combine with those special events we saw in expedition and you a complete new content!

Now expand this for underwater or imagine that with other content of the game.

Hope you like the idea cheers

Sean, I know you're there. Its time to integrate Expeditions into normal saves. [Suggestion]

Activate expedition in the Anomaly, locked current progress of character in a storage container or something and begin. Spice it up with rewards that can only be unlocked in Permadeath mode or something.

Being forced to create a new save, within a specific time-frame and all the fun stuff is...not fun.

🧑‍🚀EXPEDITION 7-LET'S GET A FEW THINGS STRAIGHT. 🚀 [Discussion]

Read this carefully before you respond with a nasty comment

I have been reading post after post on reddit regarding people raging, complaining and having tantrums over this expedition. Despite the fact that this particular expedition is not for me, I still get annoyed at some of the complaints on here.

Look folks, HG can't be everything and every game to every person. Over the the years they have certainly tried to include something for everyone.

I am not an expedition enthusiast. I have done a few but I don't lay awake at night regretting the ones I skip.

It's a totally seperate game mode so it's not required material to play No Man's Sky.

I think it's totally fair for HG to add an expedition for hardcore players. How many Hardcore expeditions have we had in the past? The answer is none (to my knowledge) so I applaud HG for including that player base.

Regarding people that complain that special rewards are tied to expeditions, Yes they are. Why shouldn't an expedition player get some awesome, unique rewards for completing a special event?

Special events reap special rewards.

Bottom line is, there are players who want a trophy for non participation. That's not how it works.

If you want the darn whale cape and can't live a quality life without it then play the expedition.

Expedition 7 is not for me, I admit and I'm ok for deciding not to continue with it. I don't hate it, I'm not angry, disappointed or anything of the sort. It just doesn't resonate with my style of play and the way in which I enjoy playing.

I am no less of a person for skipping /quitting. I have been playing NMS since release in 2016 on two platforms. I don't know everything about the game and still ask questions but I'm not at all clueless either.

I have played every mode and the one I personally enjoy most is normal mode. I game to remove...

Make all the expeditions playable at any time. My reason is not because of fomo rewards,but because I enjoy playing them. The main game doesn't have too much in the way of story campaign missions,so having these expeditions always available would awesome. The worm and the broken ship on one planet expeditions were my favorites.

Game not recognizing PS plus [Question]

Hi interlopers, a friend of mine who just got the game on PS4 is having some issues with making the game run multiplayer, and since I play pc I can't offer much help to him. He says he has PS plus, but for some reason the game is jot recognizing he has it. He doesn't know how to post to reddit, so to quote him directly:

"I boot up the game, the main menu asks for single player or multiplayer. I try to go into multi-player, and it sends me to the PS store to buy PS+ and doesn't gimme any other options, even though I have PS+. Then when I try to buy PS plus anyways, I get an error message and it kicks me back to the main menu."

Advice? We really want to play together.

Can someone pls direct me to a fairly comprehensive (like without acronyms everywhere) explanation of how upgrades ‘work’ and ‘don’t work’. I know you can only have so many and that some have to sit next to each other to work properly and I still have upgrades that I’m not sure are upgrades for anything I have that don’t light up no matter what I put them next to….

Permadeath Mode in Expedition 7 Sucks. [Suggestion]

I DON'T like the forced permadeath thing in this expedition. I spent 6 hours of my REAL life grinding in Expedition 7 this morning before dying to a gang of 4 hostile creatures that randomly spawned on me (I didn't have a chance of surviving this random encounter), and I lost EVERYTHING I worked so hard to get (5 of 7 in the first iteration). Forcing players into permadeath mode in order to achieve in game rewards - Not fun, HG!!! Some might enjoy the "challenge", but IMHO, it is quite stressful to waste my time losing everything after hours of working hard to get it. Normal mode would be a nice option here, even if I had to take extra steps to achieve the rewards.

PSA: you can reroll memory fragments... [Information]

If you are not aware, some people reroll their modules to maximize their efficiency, if you're one of those people, you can reroll memory fragments in the same way but they aren't seeded, they're truly random so if you save before you open them you can reload the save if you don't like what you get.

​

Long guide for those who need it:

1: get memory fragments

2: enter/exit ship

3: open fragment/s

4: if you don't like what you get reload quicksave.

​

You can save after each fragment to minmax your selections if you want. Just discovered this after a brutal death in the midst of reaching point 3 and getting curious to see if I could do it in the expedition to pick my bonuses :D

I have a pretty stressful job, lots of things going on all the time and more often than not i'm tired and irritable..

This game is a serious tonic; i've never known anything quite like it.

I come home, I sort some stuff, chat to the family, make sure all is ok, then I go play this for a while, maybe 30mins, maybe a couple of hours - it doesn't matter.

trying to start a new project [Discussion]

So, I've played NMS for like 3 years now and I've always found the exploration part the most interesting. So today I thought, why not make an online NMS archive of every thing discoverable. A place where people can upload everything from new planets, to rocks. It would be a giant hub for every unique planet, portal, animal etc. I know you can upload ur discoveries in game, but j don't find it useful really, I wish there was like a giant library instead.

It was very stressful. I've never played anything but Normal, and had really crap equipment drops, only had a boltcaster for my MT and a rocket-launcher for my ship, 3 pips of health.....and managed not to die.

So, it's doable.

I'm glad it's over though. I was curious before...but now I never want to touch survival / PD again, haha.

I'm tucked away safely in a space-station, waiting for the bugfix so I can claim the frigate, then I'm back to exploring and base-building and crafting and creating head-canon.

(Tip: Die Immediately, after saving for the first time. Build a base and walls when egg-gathering. Shoot sentinels from a trading post. You'll want a personal force-field by the end. Buy way more Ion Batteries and Life-Support Gel than you think you need. Of all things, that inventory has a very generous cap. Buy lots of launch-fuel, and use your ship rather than hoofing it if you can help it, even if you have to refill every third takeoff, and leave enough in there you can summon it in a pinch.)

Is there any hope for better draw distance? [Discussion]

Hey all, just got a question/point of discussion I want to bring up (which I’m betting has been brought up many times before).

I’ve tried starting NMS a few times since its launch way back when, and it’s been amazing to see how significantly it has improved, but one thing I notice every single time I try to come back and get into the game is the draw distance, for grass and foliage on planets.

I check in with the game and start a new file once every year or two, and it’s always the same; grass and foliage falls off maaaaybe 100m from the player, and it’s painfully obvious and immersion breaking.

I’m always hoping it’s fixed when I see the cool update trailers they put out (in which Hello Games always somehow ups the draw distance and makes it look like the issue’s been resolved), but then I get into the game and it’s the same. Really kills any sense of immersion and joy while looking over a planet’s surface in front of you while on foot.

Had Hello Games ever acknowledged this, or mentioned anything about it? Is there any hope of this ever getting fixed? I know it’s petty as hell, but it’s the one thing that’s keeping me from getting invested in this game. The severely limited draw distance for grass, foliage, rocks, etc etc, pulls me out of the game the entire time.

For reference, if it matters at all, I’ve played NMS on a high-end PC, a PS4, and a PS5 most recently. The problem looks to be the same across all consoles, in my experience

I thought I heard somewhere that you could not. My friend and I are playing together and trying to do as much together as we can. It seems like it's best if we both have our own bases. (For several reasons, 1 being storage access.) But we were thinking we could be on the same planet, or could even have 2 settlements and 2 bases on the same planet, or at least in the same system.

(But there would still be the trade off that if one person is using the freighter in the system the other person cannot?)

Expedition 7 too hard? Not your style? Read this. [Information]

Hello fellow travelers, I know many of you are frustrated with the difficulty this expedition has to offer, especially to those of us who never play a survival or perma death style mode but I believe this expedition is 100% doable to even the worst players and I would like to help if I can, so here's a guide I've put together to help you out along the way.

First things first, Die. Yup, gotta die to complete the first phase anyways and might as well do it when you don't have anything to worry about.

Now that you've died your anxiety about it can settle a little. Locate your ship and jump inside so your safe from the elements and creatures, and look at the entire expedition milestone log, all phases not just phase 1. There's a lot you can do before even leaving the planet and will be easier to do so earlier on vs later.

Don't Panic. Easier said then done I know but there will be times when everything is going down at once. Hazard shields depleted, life support low, sentinels attacking because you tried defending from an aggressive creature. These are the moments that can break you, cause you to panic and make you spin in a circle rather than actually save your self. When in doubt, use the terrain manipulator to dig a whole and cover yourself up quick like. A Minecraft tactic that works beautifully in NMS. A hole will save you from the elements , creatures and sentinels and allow you to collect your self and make a plan

Make a plan. Seriously plan everything, even down to how your going to collect the whispering egg. Don't just try and grab it and run when the horrors show up. Look at the slope it's on, how will it roll? Where's an escape path? Should I dig a hole first? A platform? Make a damn plan for everything. Even if it doesn't work out, having a plan allows you to adapt to unforseen situations and recover quickly.

Take a break. Getting...

Frustrating! New No Man's Sky content is missing features on PS4. [Question]

I've noticed with the last few updates for No Man's Sky on PS4 that features that are touted in the release don't actually appear to be present on the PS4. Things like additional save slots (I still only have the original number), expedition perks (capes, for example, don't seem to be available for me despite having acquired them in the expedition), stuff like that.

expedition 7 inquiry [Question]

Im new to the group, and apologize for the lengthy post. If this topic has already been discussed, then i apologize for that as well.

I've been playing this expedition for a few days now, died a few times. But I my previous play through, I went through a black hole. I wrote down the name of the system I found it in (so I could go back if the black hole took me to far) and went through. When I saw that it did indeed take me to far out, I went to the spacestation and portaled back. I died shortly after, but when I restarted, it started me on the other side of the black hole. So now I have to travel back, one tedious jump at a time. I've been playing all afternoon and feel like I've gotten nowhere.

Has anyone else had this happen?

Is it a glitch?

If I die again, will I be starting in the same place? Or will it start me from the original start point this time?

Quick question about sentinels aggression levels [Question]

So I found a planet that is supposed to have aggressive sentinels (in the planet's description they're marked as "inescapable").

From the wiki it seems like it's one of those planets where they should attack you on sight.

However, I've been wandering around for a while and they've been acting like regular sentinels and have ignored me unless they spot me mining some stuff and even then they start scanning me and if I stop mining, they move on.

My question is, is this some sort of bug or an error on the wiki page?

it's not that it matters so much, but I was considering building a base there and if somehow they start attacking me on sight when I reload the game at some point, that's going to be a major downer.

note: so far as I can tell, it's not one of those planets with gravitino balls everywhere and it doesn't seem like it has some extremely valuable resources either.

Scared to open the game [Bug]

Hey, just want to preface this by saying I love this game and at least 90% of the following is on me

Was super excited to start up the expedition after downloading overnight, booted up the game on PS4 and it just got stuck on the title screen. Switched it off and turned it back on, got the screen where it rebuilds the database, had this before so no worries.. except this time it got stuck on 23% and wouldn't budge for over an hour.

This is the dumb part, all me, without looking anything up I just pulled the plug. From there everything just fucked up, long story short after trying everything, including reinstalling system software, it just won't start up again. Lost all data, 100's of Gb of screencaps :'( but had PSN so saves should be fine?

Anyway my brother has a PS4 he never uses so I've loaded my profile onto that. I just want to know has anyone had a similar issue? I saw in the patch notes that they fixed a PS4 GPU crash, is that what this is? I just want to know before I try and boot up the game on another console and ruin that one too

Atlas mission [Question]

This has most likely been mentioned before but I've been finishing off the main story missions and during the Atlas one I was warped to a planet to find Artemis. This isn't the problem. The problem is that I've been warped to a system I've already explored. So on the information page via the menu it says the planets are toxic, ashen etc...but when I'm flying around all the planets are different. The one that's meant to be rainy with lots of fauna is cabled with one rolling ball. Side note: Have we talked about cabled planets? What's the mindset there. Anyway when I scanned the fauna, it's extinct. The same happens for all the planets.

Have I been warped to the past? It's kinda neat in a sense. Kinda like seeing the planets before they form. Just hope it doesn't wreck my game.

Game is freezing up, but none of my PC components are under a heavy load. [Question]

Unsure if this should be in the big report, so if I need to go there, just let me know.

But after the last few updates, I'm getting sudden freezes sometimes in the game, especially when going in or out of planets atmosphere's. But with task manager open, the GPU, CPU, SSD, and Ram are all at decent levels, with none of them spiking up. Sometimes I notice my CPU or GPU spiking down as if the game stopped running for a second.

It's more of an annoyance then anything, but my computer should be fine. Are there any settings I should mess with, or anything I can do in Windows?

Anyone know how to fix keyboard input lag on PC/Steam? [Bug]

I've been having this problem for at least the last two or three expeditions: when I'm moving around, the game seems to think that I haven't released my keys for anything up to several seconds after I have. This manifests in me continuing to move in one direction despite having either released the key or even having pushed the key in the other direction instead. It's also affecting my jetpack, so even after I release the key, I'm still boosting upward.

This was annoying but tolerable in my normal save, but in the new permadeath expedition it's seriously game-breaking. I keep losing progression because I run over cliffs or boost higher than I intended, only to completely drain my jetpack, leaving me to fall without any means to cushion my impact. Since it's permadeath, I've not been able to build up enough tech to harden myself or increase my boost duration so that it might actually outlast the "stuck" key.

I'm using the same keyboard I've been using for nearly 20 years, a MS Natural Multimedia using PS/2. It uses basic rubber dome/membrane tech: I've never spilled anything into it and I occasionally fully dismantle it to clean it, which has never caused any problems in the past. I have noticed similar behaviour in only one other game of the relatively few I've been playing since the problem started: Halo 4 in the Master Chief Collection, also on Steam, but affected to a lesser degree. I have not noticed any issues in Windows in general - certainly no stuck, auto-repeating key presses while I've been typing.

strange interaction with a player [Question]

So I'm trying to do the weekend community mission thing getting activated indium. And a guy flies over in his ship and keeps trying to kill me over and over again. I have pvp turned off so no matter what he does he's never gonna kill me. He was at this following me around for a good 10 minutes as I just go from deposit to deposit. Is there something I don't know about which is why he was trying to kill me? Or is he just an idiot thinking he was gonna do a little trolling and not realizing I'm literally invincible. I just thought it was kinda funny honestly. He tried so hard.

I just wanted the Whalestalker Cape. That’s it. That’s all. But on the last objective I needed, the very very last thing, I get killed in 2 sec in my mech trying to get the eggs. I love a good challenge in games but god damn they should make it normal mode at some point. I usually love permadeath gameplay but knowing I have to do literally all the same exact objectives again feels like bullshit. Idk. I’ll try again sometime but rn I’m I’m truly defeated.

Does Settlement Debt Even Matter? [Question]

So about 8 hours ago I made the mistake of acquiring my first settlement. As always it starts out like 100k in the red a day. I built the launch pad, I started dealing with residents... And then I got a sentinel attack.

For the last 4 hours all I have done is fight, die, and fight, flee, fight, and die again to a neverending onslaught of sentinels. I watched as the counter of sentinels remains goes from 11, to 4, back up to 26, and it keeps going. At this point I get in my ship and fly off planet, still chased by sentinels. When I return to the settlement, every sentinel on the planet is located within the area and it cheerfully displays "1,198 sentinels remaining" before my frame rate drops to 2 a second and I have to try to get back out into space. I tried not going inside the settlement buildings, some people say that resets the spawning of sentinels, I can't tell a difference.

So it's stuck going six figures into the red every day, according to it- so my question is: "Should I even care?" Does that debt just compile over time but never actually deduct from my own credits? Can I just ignore that settlement and move forward with my life? Or will this be a slow bleed on my wallet for the rest of the game?

Complainers (about difficulty) missing the point of a Rogue-like Game [Discussion]

Hey you wonderful community,

I've noticed a lot of people complaining how hard this expedition is. I just wanted to set the probable intention straight that the devs were going for. Rogue like games borrow mechanics from old school games where you couldn't "save" your game. I'm dating myself but this like like the Nintendo era of gaming in the 1980s.

You turn the game on and playing the game was "rehearsing" and learning how to play the game to your best of your ability as you went through the levels. This expedition is just that. Every "loop" you do after you die, you have a better plan on how to do it when you spawn in. Can someone confirm for me if when you die, if your bases are also wiped because I just use other people's bases to advance. Take advantage of your fellow travelers lofty bases they left behind.

Also, if you notice the universal loop progression, the expedition will gradually get easier since the memory fragments should be higher quality by the end of the 6 weeks in the expedition. Right now, we're just going with level C upgrades. Only the real ones will finish this expedition with the C level upgrades.

Most of you are more than welcome to wait for the universal upgrades to hit A class or S class when it gets there. But, do you really have the bragging rights. You're only going to be an OG if you say you finished this expedition while we were only getting C Upgrades.

Feel free to copy and paste anything here to the complainers :P

Loading expedition save crashes game (PS5) [Bug]

First, I have already submitted a bug report to Hello Games, so I don't need a reminder for that.

I want to know if anyone else has experienced this issue. I started the expedition, played a total of 3.5 hours over a couple days, made a fair bit of progress, and now whenever I try to load my expedition save it crashes the game 100% of the time during the galaxy map title loading screen.

All my other saves load without issue; this only happens on the expedition save.

I'm going to try rebuilding the database and reinstalling the game the next time I have time to play, but since my other saves work fine I don't expect this to resolve anything.

Anyone else have a similar problem on PS5? If so, any workaround?

Could you play No Man's Sky just for the atmosphere and vibe? [Question]

No Man's Sky is always that game I have on my wishlist, but for never being that cheap, at least where I live, I end up not buying it, but I've been wondering about it. It's one of those games that keeps itching to find out if it is for me. Normally with that feeling I end up buying, but still wanted to ask the community. I know this has been asked a ton and that's why I wanted to ask on specific aspects and actually discuss the game and not come on the sub of the game and ask ''is NMS worth it?''

I like two main types of games: fun and additive gameplay and games with simple gameplay but with great atmosphere and feeling of mystery/solitude/wonder, not necessarily the three at the same time. I really like Death Stranding, except for the story. The part to just walk from one objective to the other. Also really liked Firewatch, Abzu, Subnautica and a lesser known Lifeless Planet. The mystery of space, the unknown and being in different planets is a theme that intrigues me a lot in movies and games.

Do you, people who actually played NMS and have a good grasp on it, think I could have fun with the game focusing mostly on this side of things? I like some level of management in the survival aspect, coziness of being in a habitat you've built and parts of the usual survival stuff. I'm up for some of it. It's always fun to have some things to manage, like Papers, Please.

But, in Subnautica, fox example, I had to start using the console command, because I was getting tired for having so much stuff to look for. Does NMS lean a lot to this side? Is it too overwhelming to create vehicles. Can you go back to that home easily if you leave the star system? Or do you have to repair and refill the tank of your space ship very frequently and for that you have to search ingredients that craft the crafter of the fuel, you know? That level

Do you prefer Third...

I doubled check everything was done and the objective says that I completed the expedition. When I go to the final phase section it won't let me claim the last reward or whatever. But like I said I have phases 1-5 completed. However the final reward claim section is saying that I have none of the phases completed.

If you don't like the new Expedition, don't play it. [Discussion]

Mind boggling revelation, I know.

I've seen so many people complaining about it so far, despite it only being days old. Now, I can't say I'm the biggest fan of Expeditions, and I probably won't get around to this one for a little while. But you know what? That's fine. I'm not obligated to play it. It's not game breaking if I don't, I'm not missing out on anything that will drastically change my experience with the game.

And that's all it is. An experience. You don't have to play it. It's there if you want to. Why complain about the option to do so? The beauty of No Man's Sky is that there are so many different options, different paths you can take in regards to your play style. This is the first Permadeath Expedition, and it may be the only one, so why complain that it's there when we've had so many before?

And you can't pull the argument of "waaa this update is only expedition based where's the new content?!!,?!" When it hasn't even been TWO months since the last major update, with apparently many more still in the works.

This expedition is pandering to people who like the rougelike play style, and for those interested in the challenge. If you don't want to play it, don't. But don't complain about content that isn't directed at you as an audience.

My thoughts on the expedition after beating it. Spoilers [Discussion]

This expedition was just amazing. I loved every second of it. I always felt like I was in danger, and I feel like that really made the whole lore part with the traveler’s past iterations and the leviathan are stuck together in a loop that only one party remembered, that is until our iteration begins to remember over the course of the expedition. The fact that these memories are enough to influence the simulated world of nms is a really cool idea, sort of showing how the traveler has always broken the boundaries set by the world around them.

The pinnacle of this is the derelict, the final challenge. I felt terrified throughout the entire thing, barely scraping through each security system and barely glimpsing the stupid jellyfish. This game has never had higher stakes for me and I loved it. You use the power given by memories to fight your way through the dead freighter, which leads you to calling on the leviathan for what may first appear as a final showdown (it did to me), but was instead a way out of the cycle which the leviathan knew so well. It remembers everything from the loops, and how your previous iterations tried so desperately to slay it. This time is different, the game tells you to accept your fate, and truly die one last time to the first victim which started this. This shatters the loop, and the traveler wakes up, and goes to find their ship, which is surrounded by the familiar crash site we all know, proving once and for all, that the loop is broken.

TLDR: Loved the expedition, really raised the stakes and I loved the lore at the end!

Brand new player with a potentially hot take on "normal" mode [Discussion]

So there's survival mode, and a seemingly less survival based, less challenging normal mode. I just tried to start the game 5 separate times on normal mode and every planet I spawn on instantly begins killing me. The game says to scan for resources. Oops, scanner's broke, go find some rocks. Oh wait your whole screen is covered in fucking ice so you can't even see the rocks you're supposed to be blasting.

On my fifth attempt I realized this is just how the game is so I managed to get the scanner working and find sodium to recharge my exosuit. I barely had time to turn around before it was out of juice again and the ice killed me before I could reach any more sodium.

Not trying to shit on the game, and I guess I'll just try creative mode, but I honestly can't understand why normal mode even exists. And I don't even wanna know what survival mode is like, holy fuck.

Out of genuine curiosity, is this experience enjoyable to anyone? I'm a big fan of survival games but if resource management is so demanding in the less difficult game mode that it's literally stopping you from exploring, what's even the point? Like fuck, at least give me a cave or something in the area so I can take a breather and figure things out. Is there a tutorial I've somehow missed?

Anybody know what happened???

Im in the Expedition, minding my own business, chugging along, trying not to kill myself with my own jetpack. I was at a space station. Waiting for people to leave so I could talk to a pilot and sell stuff. There was a ship there that was unoccupied. So I got in it to scrap it to clear the spot out of the station. After I scrap it, it automatically spawned in another ship of mine, which happened to be a broken Explorer that I hadn't yet decided if i wanted to scrap. I got back in my original solar ship....and its broken. Its like my main solar ship has taken on the slots of my broken explorer. Including changing it from C to B and adding 2 extra inventory slots. I reloaded. Its still broken. AND its red now instead of yellow. Im guessing I stumbled upon something I probably shouldn't have? Is there a way to change it back?

Post Completion Leviathan Review [Discussion]

I have just finished this expedition, and wanted to take a moment to add my tiny drop to the large ocean of opinions about this Expedition. I will try to be as honest as possible, and hopefully it'll help out any who's on the fence about trying it or is struggling with completing it. This is gonna be a long one folks. I have tried to be as spoiler free as possible, but have marked this as spoilers just in case.

TL;DR snippet: Expedition 7 will be most enjoyed by completionists and those of a more hardcore nature. Casual players who really want the rewards may want to wait a while until the community goals have been met for stronger upgrades, or even give this a pass if you don't care about the rewards.

Just gonna rip this band-aid off right now... Leviathan's not great but also not awful. This expedition feels like HG experimenting with a style of gameplay that doesn't suit NMS, and it just fails to land well. That said, it does also have some high points.

The Gameplay/Mechanics: The time loop idea this Expedition has is novel, and had me interested... at first. Sadly, it becomes one of those "better on paper than in reality" things. In the early part of the game, it's not so bad. You die, and lose a little progress. Later on, though, this becomes a real issue. Especially if you're someone with limited time and a lot of IRL responsibilities. Limited inventory size and increased costs means every hour you progress feels like an exponential loss if you die. Even going into this expedition knowing that does nothing to ease the pain of progress loss if you know you won't be able to play NMS again for a few days because you have to work or whatever. In most rogue-like's I've played, starting over isn't fully starting over. With each "run" you get various upgrades to make the next one better. Death starts the loop over, but the next loop is less painful because you have...

Question about Leviathan expedition [Question]

Okay. So, I'm basically done, except for trafficking 500k units worth of contraband from a pirate system (sold my walker brain and don't have a conflict scanner installed, so I haven't found a pirate system yet).

I know that dying in the expedition resets all your milestones (except the one that requires you to die), and that you keep any main rewards (that apply to all saves) from completed phases.

My question is, when you break the loop at the end and it kills you, does it still reset all your milestones and clean out your inventory? Does phase 5 count as complete at that time or do you have to do it again?

Specs: Ryzen 5 3600 Rtx 3090 16g ram 3200 Windows 10

Been trying to play the game for months (Gamepass version) But it's actually unplayable. Every loading screen is extremely long, and once in game it freezes for about 5 min then runs for like 5 seconds.

I've tried so many different things including the changing of the thread counts on the config file to no avail.

I've noticed that when the game is running for like 5 seconds it's having some rendering issues? I see alot of black pixels and blurryness where there shouldn't be.

Any help is appreciated.

Missing traveler NPC in Space Stations in Permadeath? [Question]

Hi all,

I just started a permadeath game yesterday hoping to get the "To live forever" achievement. I was hoping to get the portal glyphs to shorten my journey to galactic core but so far I haven't find any traveller NPC that gives grave locations and portal glyphs after visiting more than 20 space stations.

I remember seeing quite a few of them in normal mode. Do they appear at a much lower rate in Permadeath? Are is it because of game progression? So far I have used the portal in the main quest, collected glyph sets to find Artemis and Activated the portal for Apollo. I've also crafted a few of Atlas's requested item. Is there a point when traveller NPC start appearing in the space stations, or am I simply out of luck for not running into one over 20+ warps?

Green biological horrors can kill you in a Minotaur? [Question]

So I was having a good run in the Expedition 7 and was at the point where I need to grab larval cores, so I popped out the Minotaur for mobile safety point. At one point I broke an egg, grabbed the core and quickly went into my Minotaur. I jumped around in the mech with the green monsters still following me, until I stopped briefly. While I was chilling there, one of the green gremlins walked up to me in my Minotaur, tackled, and the next thing I know I heard the message "shield down" before promptly seeing a death screen.

I had nearly 300 hours in NMS and never got bonked by creatures like that. I've also read around and nothing says otherwise. It would be a massive salt to die a permadeath due to something that wasn't a feature.

TLDR - Weren't you supposed to be invulnerable to creature attacks in a Minotaur or any Exocraft? Was this a bug?

I can't find the last three minerals. Please help [Question]

I just got the game and recently figure out you got a bonus for discovering everything on a planet. I thought that was great and naively started on a planet with 60ish objects to scan.

I found all the Flora, missing one underground bastard, and three minerals and I swear to the Lord Jesus Christ these minerals are going to be the death of me.

I think I've checked all the biomes. Honestly, it's a little hard to tell. It seems to be the ocean, an area with lots of lakes, and an area with lots of lakes and black mountains.

I've looked for hours. There has to be some kind of pro tip or insight I'm too much of a noob to know. I'm going crazy over here.

Screw it, worst experience yet with this game. [Information]

Was doing fine, quite well in fact, just tamed the aggressive beast, was about to head over to AP3... then 4 aggressive beasts teleported on top of me, I sprinted away and tapped my jetpack... and landed a whole 10 feet to the ground and died instantly.

Then, AGAIN AS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, when I'm respawned on that craptastic planet we start on, there is a mountain the size of Montana between me and my ship. Oh and no I can't avoid the fire storms by digging a hole, the terrain derpadoo is broken.

Also all of my progress was wiped. As in all of the milestones. What the hell is the point when your game constantly breaks and is janky as hell?

I've fallen through the map, the terrain, the game crashes when you die in this expedition, enemies teleport across the planet to you, sentinals stay perma-aggro'd and chase me across the system (YES, little drones, watched them float slowly up into the atmosphere to follow me. I went to a whole other planet and I was still in combat with the little red dots slowly floating to me... wtf?), fall damage is janky as hell and obnoxious to die to especially when I am forced to deal with a giant cliff face that I can't even climb during a death storm with no way to heal myself and only hurrr hurr resupply the haz mod EVERY SINGLE TIME, I've fallen through the space station, I've had terrain I modified respawn and force me underground, I've teleported and have been flung to my death when I get there.

​

So you know what, I think I'm just going to go play a game that doesn't repeatedly punch me in the face and balls and like actually provides some entertainment. I'm not certain who exactly thought this was a good idea, it wasn't. Specifically because of the lack of control of where we spawn, the janky glitch bug issues of the game itself, and honestly the core mechanics of this game does not lend well to this...

Expedition 7: For those struggling [Information]

Warning: If you mess this up, there's a good chance you'll lost EVERYTHING. ALL SAVE files, not just the expedition (yes other normal / permadeath etc saves too).

This means messing with your save files. This works on PC. Also remember, this will spoil the fun.

Don't do it.

You've been warned!

In explorer, go to %APPDATA%\HelloGames\NMS, right click and "Compress to zip", and you'll have a backup of your files. When you die, just replace all the files in the st_number folder with the contents from the zip.

WARNING: IF YOU MESS THIS UP, DON'T BLAME ME or anyone here FOR LOST SAVES LOL, it was your decision.

The Leviathan Pilgrimage. A No HUD Run Through Expedition 7 [Leviathan Pilgrimage ]

Greetings Travellers

Many of you may not remember me but 5 years ago I was the second person to circumnavigate the planet Dudenbeaumodeme at Pilgrim Star but I am the only one who has done it in survival mode No HUD

That was my Shadow of a Pilgrim series

Now I embark on a new Pilgrimage through Expedition 7 completely without a HUD and post my journey here for everyone to see

Day 1 iteration 1

Everything seemed pretty normal just gathering supplies to survive until I find my ship which I did in like 5 minutes sitting broken next to a Ruin

I decided to loop myself for the milestone by hopping off the ruin but it was life support failure that blinked me

Iteration 2

Respawn and believe my ship is still at the ruins so I'm gathering mats again talking about the bundle of D*ck plants to my copilot (da wife) when a critter came up and one shot me

Iteration 3

I wasn't very happy I died again because I wasn't paying attention but back to gathering mats, avoiding the storm and creatures, plus trying to find my ship again

This time a bipedal insect hits me out of nowhere knocking out my shield and while running I bounce a bit for more damage and probably one health box away from death again before I recovered myself

About 10 minutes later I find my ship at the very bottom of a ravine next to a drop pod and there ends the hardest part (for now) getting off the planet

Day 1 took 48 minutes from initialization to launch and that's not bad for a no HUD run

I plan to live stream or record the entire expedition as proof of this Pilgrimage and share each days story here on this Subreddit like I did for shadow of a Pilgrim

If you're interested here's The Leviathan Pilgrimage Day 1 48.55 min

It seems like my main ship was overwritten or deleted somehow? [Bug]

So I had 8 ships, I was buying and scrapping a 9th ship for parts.

I purchase it outright. scrap it without issue. I'm 100% sure it was the right ship because i was farming exotics specifically.

I see my main fighter appear to replace it, no issues so far. I hop in the ship I was flying previously and head over to my freighter.

A few minutes later in my freighter I notice I can't switch to the fighter that was summoned to the station to replace the scrap exotic ship. Instead, I'm a ship down, and there's a duplicate of the scrapped ship in my list.

When I return to the station and look at the ship modifying station, the image of the ship is all bugged out and super tiny.

I can recover the ship if I lose several hours of work.

But is there any other way to recover my ship first?

Useful tips for those frustrated with Expedition 7 [Discussion]

I felt very frustrated after my second death, but on my following playthrough, I discovered the base I'd made on the first rendezvous planet was still there after my restart; I thought that might apply to all bases I'd make going forward (I haven't been able to test this theory since I beat Ex7 on my third try). To make a potential fourth try easier/faster, I popped a base down every time I found a location I had to hunt for. After that it'd be a simple matter of warping to each base to knock out the objectives extremely quickly. A base at each rendezvous planet grave marker (build a structure in case interacting with the marker spawns surprise threats, like monstrosities or rogue sentinels) A base at a crashed freighter A base at a sentinel nest A base at an infested whispering egg farm, and so on.

Also, in case we all share the same starter planet, it has ancient bones and aggressive animals, so I just farmed for 45 mins to get the pet, milk the animals and make some money while I gathered raw materials — after that I bought nearly everything else from space stations.

For whispering eggs, since you make a base as a checkpoint, just pop down 12 half walls in a four-box grid pattern separating each egg in their own little room (no ceilings). The Monstrosities spawn and immediately jump out of the little rooms so they can run around outside, and you can quickly and easily pick up the larval cores by jumping into each room while the walls protect you from attacks. The monstrosities despawn after a minute, so just chill in your little box rooms. They have to be half walls so the rooms are too small for the monstrosities to be trapped inside. If one does get stuck inside, just rocket out of that space and drop into one of the other three grid squares. If for whatever reason a monstrosity is stuck in an adjacent square and CAN somehow attack you, run away and...

I was using a couple mods to make space darker and an LOD fix, but I play so infrequently that each time I’d want to play there’s been an update to the game that would also require me to update the mods. So I’m probably going to just start not using them. Just looks for feedback, thanks!

Could you play No Man's Sky just for the atmosphere and vibe? [Question]

No Man's Sky is always that game I have on my wishlist, but for never being that cheap, at least where I live, I end up not buying it, but I've been wondering about it. It's one of those games that keeps itching to find out if it is for me. Normally with that feeling I end up buying, but still wanted to ask the community. I know this has been asked a ton and that's why I wanted to ask on specific aspects and actually discuss the game and not come on the sub of the game and ask ''is NMS worth it?''

I like two main types of games: fun and additive gameplay and games with simple gameplay but with great atmosphere and feeling of mystery/solitude/wonder, not necessarily the three at the same time. I really like Death Stranding, except for the story. The part to just walk from one objective to the other. Also really liked Firewatch, Abzu, Subnautica and a lesser known game called Lifeless Planet. The mystery of space, the unknown and being in different planets is a theme that intrigues me a lot in movies and games.

Do you, people who actually played NMS and have a good grasp on it, think I could have fun with the game focusing mostly on this side of things? I like some level of management in the survival aspect, coziness of being in a habitat you've built and parts of the usual survival stuff. I'm up for some of it. It's always fun to have some things to manage, like Papers, Please.

But, in Subnautica, fox example, I had to start using the console command, because I was getting tired for having so much stuff to look for. Does NMS lean a lot to this side? Is it too overwhelming to create vehicles. Can you go back to that home easily if you leave the star system? Or do you have to repair and refill the tank of your space ship very frequently and for that you have to search ingredients that craft the crafter of the fuel, you know? That level

Do you...

Complainers (about difficulty) missing the point of a Rogue-like Game [Discussion]

Hey you wonderful community,

I've noticed a lot of people complaining how hard this expedition is. I just wanted to set the probable intention straight that the devs were going for. Rogue like games borrow mechanics from old school games where you couldn't "save" your game. I'm dating myself but this like like the Nintendo era of gaming in the 1980s.

You turn the game on and playing the game was "rehearsing" and learning how to play the game to your best of your ability as you went through the levels. This expedition is just that. Every "loop" you do after you die, you have a better plan on how to do it when you spawn in. Can someone confirm for me if when you die, if your bases are also wiped because I just use other people's bases to advance. Take advantage of your fellow travelers lofty bases they left behind.

Also, if you notice the universal loop progression, the expedition will gradually get easier since the memory fragments should be higher quality by the end of the 6 weeks in the expedition. Right now, we're just going with level C upgrades. Only the real ones will finish this expedition with the C level upgrades.

Most of you are more than welcome to wait for the universal upgrades to hit A class or S class when it gets there. But, do you really have the bragging rights. You're only going to be an OG if you say you finished this expedition while we were only getting C Upgrades.

Feel free to copy and paste anything here to the complainers :P

Scared to open the game [Bug]

Hey, just want to preface this by saying I love this game and at least 90% of the following is on me

Was super excited to start up the expedition after downloading overnight, booted up the game on PS4 and it just got stuck on the title screen. Switched it off and turned it back on, got the screen where it rebuilds the database, had this before so no worries.. except this time it got stuck on 23% and wouldn't budge for over an hour.

This is the dumb part, all me, without looking anything up I just pulled the plug. From there everything just fucked up, long story short after trying everything, including reinstalling system software, it just won't start up again. Lost all data, 100's of Gb of screencaps :'( but had PSN so saves should be fine?

Anyway my brother has a PS4 he never uses so I've loaded my profile onto that. I just want to know has anyone had a similar issue? I saw in the patch notes that they fixed a PS4 GPU crash, is that what this is? I just want to know before I try and boot up the game on another console and ruin that one too

Any advice is much appreciated, hope you're all enjoying the update :)

Hey guys. I just started playing about a week ago or so. I heard about how the game has improved so much since launch and decided to give it a go. Glad I did because I’m really enjoying it so far.

I just noticed that some things in the game are kind of hidden in plain sight. It wasn’t until yesterday that I found out where I could purchase inventory slots even though I had been to the space stations quite a few times.

I have managed to spend all my manures so far just upgrading my hyperdrive so I can visit all the stars. I can visit blue class stars now. Not sure if that was a good play on my part or not. I’m struggling with my inventory being full a lot of the time. I’m not sure which elements I should hold onto a stash of so I keep a lot of em.

Okay, guys - I need your assistance in understanding something. I've searched around the Reddit, and online - and cannot find a definitive answer that aligns with my experience.

How does max space on a ship work?

Online, most conversation is old, and relates to 'if ship is whatever-class, you will have x inventory slots maximum'. My experience in game shows that this isn't the case. So.. how can I determine what the absolute maximum number of slots for a given ship is? Is it by Ship Type coupled with Ship Class?

I’m no day one player, but I’ve got hundreds of hours in this game and I’ve loved almost every bit. Even the grindy and slow bits were always fun for me. I’ve got massive respect for HG for what they’ve accomplished and made over time.

but HOLY CRAP what a miss. I know what they went for and what the objective was but imo terrible execution. You already know what happened, I grinded for hours only to die instantly when I hit the ground… not even that hard for that matter. Utterly infuriating.

Has anyone found out of you can complete the Leviathan Expedition WITHOUT dying? [Question]

I already died to unlock the hermetic seal plan to fix my ship and leave. However, my husband just started the expedition and every time he dies in this game mode, his game crashes and he can't continue, so he can't load back in to unlock the hermetic seal anyways. It doesn't do this to him in normal mode, so it's very obviously a bug. So my question is, can he complete the first iteration (loop) without dying and therefore be able to complete the whole expedition? I can join him and give him a hermetic seal and whatever else he needs since I've been in it for a few days. Has anyone tested this?

Something bizarre going on with Monoliths [Discussion]

I noticed something bizarre going on with monoliths today. At the first one I visited, I learned three works all beginning with 'E', thought "that's pretty weird, what are the odds?". Next monolith, three words all beginning with 'F'. Next: three with 'G', then three with 'H', then three with 'I'.

Weird, right? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills and my universe is collapsing.

Not a new player, but haven't been playing much and when I do I kind of just bs a little bit. Never did the story or quest or bounty's or anything of that sort.

The rewards need to be a lot better for expedition 7 since it's permadeath [Discussion]

I had phase 1 finished, and parts of some of the other phases finished, and I was trying to collect whispering eggs. I dug a hole in the ground to get them, like people suggest, because supposedly the biological horrors can't get you there. Except they could, and they killed me.

I lost all of my milestones, all of my suit expansion slots, everything I had installed on my multitool, the base I had built (although it wasn't much), EVERYTHING. I went right back to the beginning where I have to find and repair my ship. I knew you lose everything in your inventory when you die on permadeath, which really sucks, but I didn't expect to lose all of my milestones too.

The rewards aren't good enough to put up with this bullshit.

It seems like in order to unlock the frigate in expediton 7 you have to do the optional objectives in the current version [Information]

I was on 0/5 but then i turned in a massive haul for Polo of solemn dust and ancestral memories, which completed the optional objective to assist Polo in iteration 1.

I've read people can get it on the experimental build, so i assume this is not intended? (especially since those are optional objectives).

So unless they patch it i assume we would have to reach tier 5 with the community research since it would complete the optional objectives. (which is not something you can easily do alone i've been farming for 2 hours and the percentage didn't move).

Mine is in the deepest hole of them all on the whole planet, barely wide enough for my spaceship. At the very bottom of hundreds of units deep pit. When I somehow landed at the very bottom of the pit, scanner shown me the grave is ~130m away - which means it's either burried under the ground, sits on 90*/vertical slope side or is behind the geometry of the slope which I can't dig.

exp7. keep your freighter close and your ship closer. [Suggestion]

To everyone throwing their controllers against the wall, don't forget that all the updates we had in this game have been free. The expeditions with all their rewards are also FREE. Any other game would charge for new content.

This is my first time playing permadeath. I died ONCE (unintentionally) so far in the literal 7 seconds i looked away to grab my coffee cup and yes, it was frustrating as f*ck. I realized that having a smaller exosuit is a blessing in disguise. I've only been in for about 4 hours and I'll try my best but will probably die again for something real stupid. Bugs? Maybe I've had better luck than others but I have not had a bug serious enough to kill me since year one.

I have not finished yet but have gotten myself used to not running and jumping around like a lunatic, keeping my pet happy, stocking up on fuel and uranium so I can summon my ship anytime and fly anywhere over 200 units away. Adopt that aggressive pet early. Once I have my ship shields upgraded, I'm going to pirate some freighter upgrades for teleportation. Build a couple of safe haven bases with resources.

There's probably better tips the real veterans can give but my advice is , take it easy on this one and remember to save and exit to menu when you go on that bathroom break.

For all of you working on Expedition 7 hoping to unlock that Living Frigate, you should be warned there is currently a known bug that prevents the game from registering it as 'complete' without clearing all the optional objectives too.

Stuttering tied to texture settings? [Question]

Howdy all, I recently bought No Man's Sky and have been fighting performance issues from the get-go. After fiddling around with every fix on the internet and trying different things, I finally isolated what my issue was: the texture setting. For whatever reason, anything other than "standard" causes frequent stutters. I can set everything else to low or ultra and there is no performance difference at all.

Was curious if anyone has ran into this before? I know it says that texture quality is tied to VRAM but I have 11GB of VRAM. If no one has any ideas then it's whatever, I can live with the lower quality textures. But it's just strange to me considering I have a ton of headroom in terms of CPU, GPU, RAM and VRAM. So I don't think it's just a matter of "you turned the graphics down, of course it's better".

My specs are: * i9 9900K * 32 GB RAM * Installed on SSD * RTX 2080Ti 11GB

At the very least I hope this helps someone else.

Unintentionally Skinned my ship. Looking for help. [Bug]

Just today, I decided to do the weekend community mission, which of course put me in the community system. Afterwards I decided to continue on with the Artemis questline, which as you might know sent me through a portal. When I returned to my ship after a couple of story beats (and some saves from exploring the bubble planet I was sent to) I noticed that my chrome explorer with orange accents that I had sunk plenty of time and money into acquiring and upgrading transformed into a pretty generic looking teal Solar class with identical stats. I lost the launch thruster bonus from explorer, DIDN'T receive a solar sail, and most importantly lost my chrome explorer.

​

I have looked into restoring a previous save but that doesn't appear to be an option for me. I have accepted that I will not be receiving my exact chrome explorer back, but I was wondering if anyone would help me reskin this back into an explorer to regain the launch thruster bonus, since I'm not getting the bonus of a Solar class anyways, and even though it won't be my own, have a ship thats back to looking nice.

​

I haven't looked too far into the ins and outs of reskinning, mostly just enough to recognize what happened to me, but it seems like it can be intentionally replicated to return me to something I can be happy with.

​

Any help would be appreciated. Ideally I would only take the look of a ship I really like, but at the moment I would be happy to just return to an explorer class so that I can go back to having an S-class on all ship types and regaining my launch thruster discount.

​

Hopefully this is the right spot to post this, if its not let me know where to go.

Building bugs [Question]

So after taking a break from the expedition I wanted to chill and casually build a new base. I did this last night for a few hours and was really pleased with how it turned out. Load up today and everything I built is elevated 15 feet off the ground, forcing me to begrudgingly tear it all down to rebuild. Kinda frustrating but no big deal…

I manage to return everything to how it was. Then I save my game / quit out and in a couple times to make sure everything is stable. All good. Until I just tested again and my entire base is now underground instead of in the air. I just want to build a cool base but the game won’t let me. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Is it something with prefabs ? Or the terrain manipulator ?

All these complaint posts when the expedition is nothing like a real permadeath [Discussion]

Sorry for those accustomed to Normal who've had to make some expectation adjustments, but you have to be realistic. This expedition is not a permadeath.

The distinction between Survival and Perma is that in the latter, you literally lose everything. Not just the rewards; the entire save. The whole point therefore is to give a one-shot sense of realism that raises the stakes of an otherwise fairly easy (once you have the hang of it) game.

This isn't the case in this expedition. Not even close. It's more like going back to a save point, only even better for keeping certain progress, and actually progressing you further.

For actual permadeath players, this carries none of the risk or consequence of an actual permadeath save.

Also worth highlighting that this gameplay decision isn't arbitrary: based on The Last Campfire, Hello Games include on occasion a deeper thinking as to the philosophy, to show players different points of view. Here possibly something like the "inevitability of death".

The fact that so many of you are getting pissy about the dying part indicates they were probably justified in this as a beneficial writ large lesson--while it still also being just a game. That they even called it permadeath when it's really a survival seems to give this theory some credence.

Another benefit, is the kind of enjoyment you'll get out of the game after finishing an expedition like this. Like you've gone from Mordor back to Hobbiton.

These guys are high-concept developers who know what they're doing. Trust in the game, and, seriously, stop with these fucking complaint posts. It's not an actual permadeath.

Differences from Expedition 7 (Leviathan) from the regular game for experienced players [Information]

So I'm sure many of you experienced players have noticed changes in Expedition 7, but here are a few that I've noticed. Please add your own in the comments. 1. Upgrade costs have drastically increased, from 10x the cost of nanites as well as salvaged data and factory modules. -- One exception to this is that places where you gain upgrades without a "cost" are still in play, i.e. damaged machinery, distress beacons, and the bigger secured sites (not factories but I don't recall the name). The upgrades in these instances are random though. -- Also, apparently an oversight, the blueprint sellers in minor outposts haven't changed their prices - still 75 nanites for advanced mining laser, etc. Limited inventory of course. 2. Don't think you're going to get upgrades by salvaging wrecks or purchased ships - anything over "C" class will yield no upgrade modules. You'll see them generate but they won't be in your inventory.

FYI: Not a change but you should know base exosuit inventory is limited to 250 BUT your cargo inventory is twice that - 500 units or 10 goods (storm crystals). Expand your cargo slots first.

Should I buy it on GOG or Steam? [Question]

I played the game two years ago with the gamepass and I kinda want to give it a go again since it's on sale, but I've seen people posting a lot of differences between the GOG and the Steam version of the game in old posts.

So I just wanted to make sure what were the differences, I read that GOG doesn't get twitch drops, is there more than that? I'd like to buy it on GOG unless it's too much trouble compared to Steam

Thanks in advance !

Lost Portal [Bug]

What is says in the title. I built my base around a portal, and when I pop in today, everything is fine.

I head to the Anomaly, do by business, and fly back, only now, the portal is gone. Base is still there, but with a big-ass hole in the middle where the portal was. Wtf?

Nms Vr is a transcending experience [Discussion]

NMS has and always will be one of my favorite games, the first time I played it I had a great time and finally beating the game on permadeath felt very good. But if you have a VR and haven't given this game a shot you are really missing out. At first I was upset because I really didn't like the teleport movement and snap camera, but in the settings you can change it to smooth movement and smooth camera shift, when playing on a monitor this game feels like a fun space exploration game, but in VR it turns into space wizard roleplay in the best way possible. I finally just got my psvr set back up after being busted for awhile and had previously noticed that nms has a VR version, which is what inspired me to fix the headset again. but my expectations were absolutely blown out of the water, The mechanics are on point and after around 5 hrs of playtime I barely ran into any bugs, weather I'm just getting lucky or not, that's impressive for a VR game. very much recommend 👽

What's the point of the Anchor Points in this expedition if they don't anchor you to that part of the time loop? [Question]

I decided to start the expedition today because I really want that living frigate. I let myself die at the beginning to get the Milestone and rewards, but since then I've been playing normally. I've never died in NMS. Unbeknownst to me you can't use the jetpack in this expedition to brace a long fall (at least it wouldn't let ME use my jetpack even though I left 25% of it for this). I died two hours in after the second anchor and reverted all the way back to the start.

So what's the point of the anchors if not to start you THERE in the loop?

Expedition 7 feels artifical. [Discussion]

Allow me to preface by saying that I have completed the above. But due to a certain bug of optional missions interferring with the completion, quite a number of players are unable to receive the final reward.

It is not difficult.

It is not even remotely challenging.

It is Artifical.

It is as if the devs in HG took a page from snowrunner, and added artifical speed bumps to limit the progression of players, instead of keeping things interesting.

In fact, each expedition is not particularly difficult by any means. Tedium is just a means to get to the interesting rewards that I get to play with for a while.

So, with that being said, players engaged in hardcore mode isn't terribly skilled of course. It's a easy game. I chose this game because I could relax in it rather than perfecting new dance moves every new expansion/ patch.

A question to the hardcore players, who are all smug about what they think that they had accomplished, are you terribly satisfied with your skill level? Would you appreciate better skilled players to put you in your place too just like some of you are doing to the less capable players when they complain about the difficulty?

I say, live and let live. Hardcore mode in NMS isn't terribly exciting nor is it difficult. It's nothing to shout home about.

I'm new to expeditions and freighters. So for this leviathan expedition I have this C class dreadnought freighter. However I can't warp anywhere in it due to it not having a hyperdrive.

What's the best way to get friends to your base? [Question]

So I've never really done multiplayer in this game and I'm helping a buddy start out and I'd like to get him access to my activated indium farm. I quickly found out it's not as easy as I thought with him hosting, and then google has confirmed that it's not a simple task.

I'm guessing one way would be for me to be the host and be at the farm and have him spawn on me? And if I want him to be able to get there when I'm not online he'd probably have to teleport to the space station and then fly to the base?

Is there an easy to do this where he's the host and visiting my base? Thanks.

planetary infustructure like roads and powerlines would be awesome! [Suggestion]

I was just thinking that exploring planets would be even more fun if some of them had infustructure on them that gave players not only easier ways to navigate but a way to travel along and discover structures more immersively.

Apart from discovering just more structure types like quarrys or something I thought a really cool idea would be roads that spawn on some planets, and the type of road varies depending on how well the planet and its system are doing. When I say vary I mean that some roads might be futuristic overpasses or paved roads on the ground, but others might be dusty car sized trails or cracked sunbleached asphelt. If a system is dead or lawless even, you could get vairents of these roads that are more destroyed with gaps and sometimes even dead ends. Whereas better off and more peaceful systems could have very well maintained roads that don't have dead ends.

I thought that roads could be really helpful to new or old players looking for structures on planets as they could generate to always lead to structures such as settlements or research labs and so on. It would be cool if more advanced systems with the Sci fi roads and overpasses could give your vehicles speed boosts while driving on them.

I also thought that other than roads, having things like old power lines and pylons would be a cool way to do the same thing while having navigation of the terrain still difficult.

Obviously there will still be worlds without roads but I thought this could be a new fun way to explore worlds and what lies on them. Another cool thing would be the potential for what could be added to roads in the future, like having slowly roaming traders in cars or bandit patrols on them. Depending on your system it could be dangerous to build near a road or it could be great for trade!

Two issues - party drops and base issues [Question]

My daughter, a friend, and I are all playing NMS on Steam, current as of the Leviathan update, and since it posted, we’ve been running into two issues:

  1. Every 5-10 minutes, one or more of us will party drop, despite no apparent loss of network (we’re all chatting on Discord). This began with the Leviathan update and did not occur prior to that to any noticeable level.

  2. We’re now having issues where people visiting a base either don’t see some walls, or in the case of prefab buildings, the walls between a corridor and a room doesn’t vanish.

Are these recurring problems, NMS veterans? If yes, is there a workaround?

I am grateful for any responses.

To the Moderators: I read the Automoderator message and am leaving up the post for the aim of asking about workarounds. I will post the bugs to the bug sticky as directed.

Question about traveling in expedition [Question]

So I’m on my 3rd attempt now… I’ve gotten pretty far, been flung out of a space station and then one shot by a random plant.

My first few attempts I got to the first and second anchor points pretty quick and there were lots of people around! This 3rd time though, it started me in a random semi-paradise planet with NOBODY around. This whole area is undiscovered and it says “may require significant travel to reach anchor planet”….. guys…. I’ve jumped a total of 6,000ly so far. Yes it is my current mission for anchor point 1 and yes I check “current missions” and “expedition route” they’re both the same route. The anomaly has people in it so my multi player is working as well.

So what the heck gives? I’ve made so many warp cells that I’m about to give up honest lol! I suppose the question is, is my game bugged and should I just “loop” again…. Or has this happened to anyone else?

Question about The Sentinel Exosuit Mods [Question]

So for context I have 6 S class exosuit defense system modules which give me 6 extra lives + the 3 base lives that you start with so I have 9 little plus things next to my shield gauge. The issue is I also have 6 Forbidden Sentinel Exosuit modules that also give me +33% core health (extra life), however I still only have 9 of those little plus things next to my gauge. So I'm wondering if I have 15 total lives despite the HUD only showing 9 or do I have only 9 and those extra lives are a waste/should I be looking for better sentinel mods that don't give an extra life but have better stat upgrades for everything else?

Expedition 7 - No Deaths - Spoliers [Information]

Made it through Expedition 7 - Leviathan without dieing. Didn't think twice about the decision to skip Iterate/Repeat. If it didn't let me finish the expedition than oh well.

At the beginning I started looking for a Minor Settlement or a Planetary Archive. While searching I stopped at all the Ancient Bone sites and kept only the Purple rare bones. This way just in case I found a Trading Post I'd just purchase a new ship. u/Gravnaut and I have done a few PermaDeath play throughs using the latter method. Walked for about 2 hours and found no MS or PA, but did find a Trading Post and had plenty of credits after trading in the bones.

Next hurdle to overcome was "The Anchor" which has you build a home. Problem: I have no access to Base Computer due to the fact I didn't die. Thank-you u/TerriblePurpose and u/elbowgrease0000 for your posts here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/gccwgd/psa_base_computers_in_the_wild_what_to_look_for/

It took ~2 hours to use their instructions to find a Wild Base Computer. After that I was home free to race to the finish line. In the end when I called in Leviathan I choose to end the loop and submit ... I got the death screen and was pushed to the load game screen! I was like oh crap what happened. Loaded the game and I was on a planet in the same system. Checked my Expedition Logs and everything was still complete and it even finished Iterate/Repeat mission.

I started Thursday and it took 28 hours total for me to finish. For nanites I grinded first wave sentinels for Glass to sell the mods you get. For credits I used distress signal charts, repaired launch thruster and pulse engines, and scrapped ships...

Space battles should be harder [Discussion]

It makes no sense to me that just because I have 1000 of sodium I can attack multiple freighters without breaking a sweat. Attackingna freighter (expecially in pirate systems) is incredibly profitable and there should be a bigger risk associated with such high reward. Maybe for the space station of that system could stop you from selling ir could pay you very little. Or in general you could make ships more aggresive so that in order to fight an entire fleet you really need to uograde your shields and weapons

Expedition Save Prior to Leviathan Locked in Survival Mode [Bug]

Expedition saves prior to Leviathan startup in Survival Mode or at least have the stack size restrictions of Survival Mode. When the game asks you to convert your Expedition save to a normal save it will save with those restrictions. The broken save will be which ever was newest, either the autosave or manual save. So after loading the game it will still be broken. But if you load your older save of the two it should be fine. Hopefully there aren't hours or days in between your autosave and your manual save.

This affects PC and PS4, and PS4 Pro Expedition game saves. I didn't test on Xbox as I don't have NMS on Xbox One. Note that this does not seem to affect non-expedition game saves.

Getting a second living ship, what am I doing wrong? [Question]

I've already done the Starbirth quest, and I thought I'd try getting a specific one.

Every time I stand right next to the crashed site where the Living Ship is supposedly located and reset the quest, it gives me a different Fallen Host far away. I've tried just about everything. Someone recommended I stand 400u away from the crash site, but this didn't work either. It gives me the same Fallen Host every time. If I reset the quest somewhere else on the same planet, it'll give me a different host on that planet but after hours of trying I have yet to find the one I'm going for.

I've also tried actually starting the new Starbirth mission in the relevant system and simply reject the LS I don't want in the hopes that eventually I'd get assigned the right one. Didn't work. I tried travelling to another galaxy (Eissentam), reset it there and come back. Didn't work. I know I'm at the right location too, because there's a comms ball there stating "Pink LS" or somewhere along those lines, and there's also a few bases nearby.

I've watched more guides than I can count by Xaine, Q Ball Gaming and a few others and nothing seems to help. I'm at the end of my patience. I really wanted this LS. Is this particular LS bugged? Is my save bugged? Did they change some specifics around how this whole process is done? Did I make a major oversight without realizing it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Continue expedition after death or start again? [Discussion]

I died in the expedition right after the start to get milestone reward. Then I played about 5 hours: done 1 phase, almost finished 2 and 3 and worked on phase 4. Then I accidentally died. When I re-enter the game, I was at the beginning, without all my collected items and without all my finished milestones. So what the point of “loops”? If I will start the new game, everything will be the same, but gameplay timer will start from 0, instead of my current 5h.

I think it would be better if we’ll keep our finished milestones after death in this expedition. You can finish 1st phase, die, loose everything, but start doing 2nd phase etc

Loop Progression: what no ones talking about [Information]

For everyone holding off on expedition 7 until we're further along the community help Polo missions, don't wait too long.

The reward progression goes from C class to B class to A class to S class to X class. See the trouble here? If you wait until we're at X class you'll have missed the sweet spot. X class mods can be better than S, but they can also be MUCH WORSE!

Yes you can reroll them, but you probably don't want to waste time on that.

And even worse, the S class to X class progression bar is SHORT. About as long as the one from B to A. Which has only taken about 18 hours to hit 40%. So we're looking at a window of about 2 days after we get S class mods before we're "upgraded" to X.

This expedition isn't too long if you're careful. I did it in 6 hours, I'm sure others have done it in 2 by now, but some people are clocking in around 15+ hours. That puts anyone just starting in a tough spot, finish it fast or get potential garbage mods.

So if you're not used to survival, it might be best for you if you start once we hit A class rewards in about another 18ish hours.

The problem is I can't get past the part in the mission of locating the crashed freighter, even though I'm walking around inside of the ship, I can't get to the next part of the mission.

Edit: I've already tried restarting the mission and that didn't work

Game is sadly unplayable. [Bug]

I have been playing NMS for a long time now, but since the latest update the game runs awfully bad. I have massive frame drops all the time when i am on a planet.

I am using a RTX2070s and an i5 12400f for those who want to know.

Anyone else having that issue?

Exp 7 bug with starting a base? [Bug]

Is there a known bug report for the third quest in the second iteration of this expedition?

It tells me to build a base on a mold (I'm German so in my language it is "verseucht") world. I thought this should be planets with these big fungals.

As soon as I activate the quest it tells me to land on a certain planet. But these planets always are lush planets.

Tried to build a base both on the given planet and on a fungal planet. No results either way.

Any tips?

No Man’s Sky Classic [Information]

I have an idea. Every once in a while I read posts here on reddit like “how about a paid dlc?” or “how Hello Games continue supporting NMS with free updates after all these years?” etc. For me answer is simple, buy the game as gifts to your friends or different platforms if you wanna support them. However I got another idea, why not re-release Atlas Rises update as a seperate game and call it No Man’s Sky Classic or something for like $10? This way we can have a legit way to play old version too.

massive tips for exp7 [Information]

First expedition that I did and I want to share tips for anyone who is having a bad time

1-sentinels cant see you if you are in a pet or in a structure,keep in mind that the dog ones can still attack you on the pet

2-there is alot of bases that are: switches for sentinels; storm crystal farm; nanite farm...

3-pirates are a giant problem in this expedition, but you can enter a space station (anomaly or normal one) and they wont find nor attack you

4-try to do everything at one go, so if you can do later missions

5-comms are good, you can find high player areas by looking at them

6-use the frieghner for storage, try not to trash items that appolo wants

7-NEVER, BUT NEVER explore without recharges for your exosuit systems

8-never utilise the jetpack in slopes

9-never fly up

10-when destroying wispering eggs be close to them (not for long) pick the larval core and go to the roof of the building, and (if you want) kill them

11-never go afk,if not in the ship |MINOTOUR wont save you, so dont even consider

12-use the inventory spaces in places like cargo or technology, but cargo is best, and normal is the best for flexibility

13-the bunny and the turtle, its best if you are the turtle even if you are slow, no pirates can make a rabbit stew from you

-Good luck out there

Expedition can’t talk to Polo to progress [Bug]

I died to some sentinels and upon respawning in the expedition, I am unable to get the dialogue options with Polo to progress.

I have restarted and killed myself multiple times on the expedition, but still can’t talk to him.

Anyone had the same issues?

Solar Ships bugging? [Question]

Me ( PC ) and a friend ( XBOX ) were looking for solar ships ( This is our first time playing the outlaws update ) and ran into a issue. My friend lands and can see the solar ships just fine, their normal model and everything. But I can not see the ships in fact, I can not see anything my vision is obstructed by weird walls of texture coming from nearby solar ships.

Has anyone else had this problem and if so what did you do to fix it if you could at all?

What’s the weirdest planet/moon you’ve put a base on? [Discussion]

Of mine, I’m torn between “Bushfire Outpost” (a warm barren world with random brush fires and storms literally referred to as “walls of fire.” Cadmium-rich) and “Geiger Cove” (a radioactive planet with substantial oceans, most of the rocks have uranium, and the planet itself is in an outlaw system. Yo ho, and indeed, ho.)

So.. I have a Explorer I really like but… [Question]

Like I said, I like how it looks and it has crazy maneuverability, especially for its size… but but my freighter can go double the distance and I still only have (mostly out of 6 possible hyperdrive modules) S Class modules, but 282+ X Class ones as well so it still has pretty good potential being at almost 3,600ly currently, or should I sell it to make room just for something cool?? This is my collector/ship hunting/MT hunting Creative Mode so I can get something at any time but… what do. It topped out at 176.1 after upgrading to S so it only has a 75% hd boost.. I could get a 181 so I’d have an 80% boost… but I like this one but again my freighter can go double the distance…

IM STUCK

Constantly dying on the final mission "The Purge" [Bug]

On the final mission there's a sequence where you lose health and during this sequence I died and my game crashed, when I re boot it I make it to my ship and I don't die, later on as I keep going I am still losing health and I die again as the game crashes. I finally made it to the reset and avoided death but after the "reset" I am still dying and almost losing all my gear. Does anyone have a suggested and safe fix where I can avoid losing all my gear? Thank you.

I have an issue with the game that I can't seem to fix and it's making me give up on No Man's Sky. [Discussion]

The short explanation : Everytime I reinstall Windows and then install No Man's Sky, then restore my old save, I get bad lag and stuttering every 5 seconds during gameplay.

Windows 10 is fully up to date. Latest Nvidia driver. No Man's Sky bought from Steam and my save restored from Steam Cloud. I tried a lot of possible solutions from Google but nothing worked. Nobody seems to be talking about this, I feel like it is only me.

The only solution : starting a new save. But I don't want to lose all the progress I have made!

Before buying No Man's Sky from Steam, a while ago, I installed the version from GOG and played offline. I had the exact same issue with restoring my old save and I had to abandon a 150 hour save thanks to that. Before reinstalling Windows 10 a few days ago, I had a 49 hours save and this is the one that I restored now. If I have to start over again, I'm not going to bother anymore. It's such a shame because I love this game so much, it is my favorite.

As I said, my specs are not the problem, I get lag sometimes during gameplay but that I expect... but not this. After 2 minutes I have to close the game because it is very frustrating.

If someone can help me, please! I tried to record the game but Xbox game bar doesn't want to work and Steam doesn't record games.

stuck in outpost wall [Bug]

So i flew to an outpost for a quest, landed my ship, but it didnt land in one of the regular parking spaces, instead it landed in the middle of the walkway. I got out and now im stuck on top of the outpost with a bunch of invisible walls. I cant reach my ship, I cant do shit. Ive been stuck here for like an hour, I even tried flying up and killing myself with fall damage, just to spawn exactly where I was. Any ideas?

Expedition Rant [Discussion]

To Sean and Hello Games,

I hate this expedition very much, I have completed all 6 expedition before but this one just made me ragequit the game. In the past people have killed me while I have been doing the expedition, thats no problem, I just respawn and move on. But this time its too much. I have hours of progress that is now erased because some griefer has decided to kill me. I don't have much time in my life normally and I spent maybe and hour every other day so when my 4 to 5 hours of progress is erased it means I lost weeks worth of work. This has now happened to me twice. First time it was just a brush of but dying when I had almost completed expedition phase 4 is too much. Thank for making something cool that I will never get because I don't have time and I don't want to put this much work again to have it happen again. And to griefers who kill people in expedition, especially this one, you are aweful sad human being and everyone hate you for what you do.

Signing off NMS!

HELP WHY DID MY SHIP CHANGE??? [Question]

So I went into the anomaly and I saw this solar ship. Surprisingly I was able to get into it. I flew it out thinking somehow I got myself a free ship. Now this ship has my old inventory and has become renamed to my old ship. I went back into the anomaly and it’s no longer there! Is this a bug? My old ship was so cool 😭

What if we got a Sentinel Interceptor as a Hardframe-style upgrade to Shuttle-class ships? [Suggestion]

There have been a few posts here about player-obtainable Sentinel ships for a while now, and recently I've been wondering about making them a sort of multi-part upgrade to the otherwise unremarkable Shuttle ship class rather than just say an Expedition reward.

This could allow it to come with some new features, like the ability to hover in place on command, an onboard AI that lets you call it for strafing runs at your position, or perhaps even the rapid/auto-regenerating shields enemy Interceptors seem to have. Would be a bit intensive on Technology slots to be sure, but still, what do you all think? Does this idea have any potential?

Quests really buggy when playing multiplayer [Bug]

Hi, I recently started playing NMS together with a friend and while we had much fun in the first 15 hours, we now are struggling with nearly every mission because they are so buggy. For example I couldn’t progress the „a trace of metal“ quest you get from your first settlement. Every time I did what the mission asked for it still wanted me to do the same thing over and over again. As soon as I loaded my save in single player I had no problems. It would be so cool if someone has an idea because otherwise it’s nearly impossible for me to play with my friends again..
