Discoveries disappearing [Question]

So I've been exploring a lot recently and have been discovering a bunch of new systems that no one's been to before and cataloguing as much as I can. However, I've run into an issue with my discoveries tab not showing every system I've been to almost as if I haven't even been there. Does that mean if someone else goes there they will get the credit for discovering it? Or are the systems gone from my tab for some other reason? It's a really annoying issue cause I love the exploration and I like the idea of having discovered these systems and having people know that I discovered them but if it's not even giving me credit it feels kinda pointless

Going back through black holes? [Question]

Is there a way to go back through black holes in reverse, to get back to where you just were? I can’t seem to find any mention of it anywhere. I’ve now gone through two black holes since making my base. I can’t figure out how to get back to my base. Or do I just have to teleport back and then re-jump through the black holes again?

Fun [Discussion]

I was out doing rover things when I discovered some ruins in a shallow depression - kinda like this one here. I spent the next hour launching my rover off the ramp to see how far I could get in one jump. Meanwhile down in the lower right corner the game is like, um, missions? Battles? You have a missing gek you need to find! Bugger off, I'm getting big air.

Extreme Weather Warning: Wind - What Did I Do Wrong? [Question]

Hello friends

Apologies if this is a silly question (or if it's been answered and I missed it). I am a complete noob who is desperately trying to get a space whale. Really, total noob, more hours in this expedition than my main save. I had gotten all the way up to anchor point 4 and just had to find it and do the memory to complete Iteration 4.

So there I was, happily running along, when some angry sentinels find me. I hide in a hole, as one does, and when they're gone I start peeking my head up. There's a firestorm going on, okay fair enough, so I pop back down into the hole to wait it out. Then I get a NEW warning which I've never seen before, "Extreme weather: Wind," and I think to myself "Ha, joke's on YOU wind! I'm in a hole!" About three seconds later and I was in the stratosphere. I tried to save myself with my jetpacks but it wasn't for happening, and I was promptly turned into Gek pâté across the side of a mountain.

Now that I am most of the way through the five stages of grief, I have to ask - what is the proper way to deal with this type of weather? Do you just need to try and keep your ship really close? Thank you in advance for any and all help and advice.

Not going to lie, feeling pretty betrayed by my good friend Holes right now.

PSVR 2 improvements? [Suggestion]

Hey everyone and HG as you may be watching

With the announcement of the PSVR 2 Version recently made, do you think that this will come with vr improvements that come in other vr games such as being able to move in a room-scale environment, or especially the HUD moving with the players head?

I would love if some vr improvements were made to the pc version alongside this.

What do you guys think?

Overseer bugged on expanding the base quest [Bug]

I was progressing down the main story in an MP lobby with my buddy and I got a quest (it's called expanding the base) to hire an overseer, build a construction terminal and talk to him.

So I did all of that and when I tried to talk to him it tells me that I should leave the gek to his business, even though my quest wants me to talk to him.

I saw some really old posts regarding this but none of the solutions I found worked (I've tried playing alone, building a new base on a different planet, even tried using my friends terminal).

Can anyone help me?

Leviathan taught me how to play the game [Discussion]

Just finished Leviathan, I previously only had about an hour into my solo save. I hadn’t touched this game for awhile due to limited hardware and overall confusion, but came back full force after upgrading and seeing a brand spanking new expedition on display.

It was pretty damn great being dropped into the middle of something I knew nothing about. It was very “sink or swim” and you can bet I swam. Playing through this was like a crash course into the game. I learned about various hazards, inventory management, combat, survival, base building, exocrafts, upgrade rarities, pirates, sentinels, freighters, smuggling, and loot hunting by the time I was finished. Also, when you only get one life, it’s facking terrifying to get thrown multiple stories into the air by some fire tornado when you’re 4/5 of the way done with the whole thing… thank god I had decent jet pack upgrades.

I had no intention of keeping anything that was given to me for the expedition and am now happily back in my original file with next to nothing, but now armed with a wealth of knowledge from past lives and loops on how to play and enjoy the game. And I’m looking forward to doing just that!

Thank you! [Information]

Shout out to MF2K|ASHMILK for building a base that helped me do the Banished Glass milestone in iteration 4 (expedition 7) Was bricking it for so long about dying at the pillar that it was the last thing left to do;

Fortunate gifting of some AOE weapons and that base to hide in / built around the nodes made it a (cheesy) breeze. Couldn't say thanks though ps4 as on a different console but am very grateful all the same. Good luck to all those still going!

How is this community not review-bombing the game over the stuttering? [Discussion]

I just picked up the game since it was 50% off on Steam and everyone claims it's gotten so much better since launch. Like so many other people on here, I have a high-end PC and I'm still getting long, multiple-hundreds-of-milliseconds stutters basically constantly. Every cool moment in this game, like transitioning from atmo to space, is completely ruined by the stuttering. Oh, did you just find a new area filled with interesting things? Well guess what, that's gonna stutter while it loads in new textures. The suspension of disbelief is constantly shattered, you're constantly aware you're playing a horribly optimized game.

Like everyone else reporting this problem, it has nothing to do with graphics settings or how good my machine is. Just to appease the doubters: 9900k 32GB of 3200mhz RAM, yes it's running dual channel, yes it's XMP'd RTX 3080 Have tried messing with the thread settings in the game settings XML All this happens even when I'm only playing in 1080p, to stream to my TV No, multiple-hundred-milliseconds stutters are not in any realistic scenario a problem with my machine, it's a fundamental problem with the engine

I'll save you a click, here's a search for "stuttering" in this subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/search/?q=stuttering&restrict_sr=1&sr_nsfw=

Are you all Stockholm Syndrome'd into thinking this is okay? Has there been any response from the devs on this? Is this a recent phenomenon? I feel like this community pulled one over on me before I was even a part of it, because this is certainly not the great comeback story I was expecting coming in. This would be shameful for an early access game, let alone a game that's had years of post-launch support put into it. I'm already out my $30 because I put up with it...

Frustrating experience playing in coop [Question]

Hello! I recently bought the game for me and a friend who really wanted it for the longest time, and I thought this could lead to some nice co-op adventures! We just got the hyper drive and while he had quite a lot of fun, it felt pretty frustating to me, and I wanted to know if I was doing something wrong or if co-op is just kind of busted.

-First off, I really struggle with item management. I feel like I constantly lack something - carbon, uranium, oxygen... with very little reliable sources to get them. We first landed on an ice planet, and everything was fine at first - we made nice little bases and had fun exploring! But then, while he had little problem finding the stuff he needed, I struggled to find oxygen and carbon. I knew there were plants that gave carbon, but I barely could find any. The worst moment happened when we found a strange building and I was out of fuel for my starship - with no uranium in sight, I had to wait dozens of minutes standing inside doing nothing while my friend explored other planets in search of it. We laughed it off, so it wasn't that bad, but it was still a pretty annoying moment. I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong with the way I'm searching for resources, but I have no idea why. Any general tips?

-The most annoying thing, though happened after getting the hyperdrive and changing star systems. We simply could NOT find a way for us to get to the same star system: in the big "main quest" line that goes to the center of the galaxy, we had two completely different stars that were next and I simply couldn't find his. Is that normal? Is there a way to find the star system my friend is in? I tried quitting the game and reloading, but I ended up at my base, still in the same star system.

I'm sure the game is fantastic, and what I've seen so far is promising but I've really been struggling to enjoy it because I don't understand the...

Crashed freighter blocking quest objective (playstation) [Question]

New player trying to finish "Alone amidst the stars" and I need to reach the long distance transmitter. I am there but a crashed freighter seems to have spawned on top of it and is blocking the quest marker. I can't get it to trigger.

Is there a reason solar ships are most common in Outlaw systems? [Question]

I've been trying to figure out if there's a canon reason that the new solar ships are most common in Outlaw systems. The meta reason is to get players to engage with the Outlaw content, but I tend to roleplay in my head and I'm trying to come up with a reason that pirates might use these ships a lot.

The only decent reason I've come up with so far is that pirates might have to jump several systems between jobs to evade sentinels, and so the solar sails help offset their fuel consumption. Would love to hear some other ideas though!

I was in The Nexus today looking for traveler bases in Galaxies I have yet to see, and I got lucky.

Someone had the door open for Zalienksm, the 51st galaxy. I then went to check the Galaxy list on NMS Wiki and just my luck, its the 50th galaxy that holds lush status. I just finished my compound base on Isdoraijung and I'm looking to create bases in all the LUSH Galaxies.

I hope the next expedition is Chill. (Also I wanna be a NMS Location Scout) [Discussion]

The last few expeditions have been pretty terrifying: Hunt and fight titan worms, get obliterated by pirates, and now "perma"death hunting a leviathan. They've been fun and rewarding, but I'd like to take it down a notch.

I think I'd design an expedition around The Simple Life next. All rendezvous are on paradise planets. One of the later objectives is to build a base with a LOT of parts used. Get a maximum score on a dish fed to Cronus. Do a "Friends Adrift" mission (as much as that one's annoying sometimes). Do some creature ranching. Be a regular ol' merchant (buy stuff in one system, and sell in a high demand system).

No objectives on spiky mountain death planets. None to light combat. Just be a galactic citizen goin' about their day, helpin' out and gettin' by.

Cooking should offer much higher rewards (discussion) [Discussion]

In some ways I really enjoy the cooking process: looking up the recipes online, searching for the ingredients and creating unique food items.

They put so much effort into creating so many different creative food recipes, it's a shame it's not used more. It takes quite a lot of effort to obtain all the resources needed for certain items and the payoff is so incredibly minimal.

Plus, trying to sell specific items to Cronus is an absolute mess! Why can't you access your full suit, ship and frigate inventory? Instead it shows you three random items.

It would also be nice if the ingredient storage was much larger, I quickly run out of space when making more complex recipes.

Is the new expedition fixed? [Question]

Ive been holding off after seeing some issues being posted here. I heard that starting it duplicated all saves and deleting them would also delete the original.

And I've also seen images of people finishing all parts but the expedition doesn't end.

Have the bugs been patched yet?

General Question [Question]

I am new to the game. I followed the story path for a bit. I created warp fuel and jumped to a new star. Then I received a second warp fuel. The game said to keep following the path or search for clues where I was. I happened to be on a planet without a hostile environment, so I built a simple base.

It seems like there's a pretty limited number of things to construct, so I'm assuming I would unlock more technology along the way. My question is, would I be better off following the main story for a while? Is there some landmark point in the story where I'll be able to do more with my base? I can't even install simple furniture or storage containers yet, and that seems like the sort of thing that wouldn't be omitted.

Since permadeath is not for everyone they should give for free the rewards for the current expedition [Discussion]

Yeah, i know most of you here will say that that wouldn't be allright.

Well it isn't allright for the people who doesn't play permadeath too.

My fucking god how a game with the stiff controls nms has would put a player in such situation where none of your abilities feels rewarding?

OOH WAIT A CREATURE IS ATTACKING ME I WILL FLY AWAY LIKE I DID BEFORE 100000 TIMES , but hey fall damage is turned up to 10000 so you'll die j3j3 oh yeah you can shoot them, the one in front of you but the rest will shit youp from behind or hey YOU CAN JUMP FAR AWAY.

I have played like 300 hours in normal mode, i never played permadeath so forcing me to play permadeath feels stupid.

Edit: oh yeah i'm expecting downvotes from people who doesn't want to hear critcizing to nms or hello games.

Yay, finished leviathan [Discussion]

I've only had the game for about a month and have 50 hrs in one save. This was my first perma-death save. It took me 13 hours and 7 deaths to complete. The hardest was the 4th part. That planet with it's crazy sentinels was nuts till I was able to disable them. There were many things I hadn't gotten to like doing that. It was very satisfying :)

Compared to Valheim and Other Survival Games How Does NMS Measure Up As A 4-Player Co-op Experience [Question]

Hiya folks! Apologies if this is off topic. My game group is my wife, my best mate and his parter. We typically play more relaxing 4-player games where my buddy and I are able to go off and gather/fight baddies and our partners can stay behind and base build and craft. Nothing to stressful so we can call shoot the sh*t and enjoy a beer.

We've recently hit the limit on Valheim after about 200 hours and are looking for our next game and are hitting some analysis paralysis. I've played quite a bit of NMS before the Next update and really remember enjoying how Zen it was, but I've not kept up with all of the updates over the years.

I know my buddy wants something exploration focused with some engaging combat. My wife wants cool exploration and exciting things to craft, and his partner wants big bases to build and different recipes/structures she can support our explorations and combats with.

Does NMS manage to tick all the wickets? I don't want to suggest it without it being able to somewhat satisfy everyone's style, but I also kind of have a feeling this game may be perfect for our group!

Thanks in advance friends.

Any tips for Anchor Point 4? [Question]

I'm finding the fourth Anchor Point incredibly frustrating. The "first" scan target is inside a canyon, but I don't think the portal building itself will be. Sentinels, crazy storms, and frustrating scans...all making it really annoying. Any tips? I guess maybe I could try to kill all the Sentinels to turn them off, but I'm not sure I'm that buff yet. Have not found any personal shield upgrades. I have been using the Minotaur but the Sentinels are making it hard to figure out what direction I need to go in since I need to leave the Minotaur to scan properly. I keep having to leave the planet to shake Sentinel interceptors which means that my navigation has to start from zero over and over again.

Safe to tackle the leviathan freighter with this loadout? Once complete is permadeath turned off? [Question]

I read in this comment that once you build the flute and talk to the whales permadeath is turned off in the sense that you don't lose any expedition progress if you die.

Is that true?

If so, I want to knock out the derelict freighter to get the flute blueprint. Only problem is, I've received no cold protection upgrade batteries (other than the Anomaly 20% one), and I only have the blaze javelin with like 2 upgrades and a boltcaster with one upgrade. Plus shield and cloaking device.

If I stack up on 100 batteries and life support gel, is that enough to safely tackle the freighter? Or do I really need to farm nanites to get a bit better protection since my weapons will be lacking?

Hostile Ships Approaching!... Every. Five. Minutes. [Bug]

Stopped playing after Expedition 1. Decided to come back and see all that has been added and relax while exploring space.

Except it's not relaxing. I'm being attacked constantly by pirates and outlaws and stuff. I was wandering around a plant looking for Whispering Eggs when I got bombarded by a hostile ship.

So I did some digging, and it seems like this is/was a bug with a previous update. Did it ever get fixed? Is this how it's supposed to be now? Or are we still waiting for them to fix it? Because right now the amount I'm being attacked is doing nothing but making the game aggravating and makes me want to just play something else.

Storm Crystal's not spawning in Expedition? [Question]

I've completed all of Anchor 3 except for the Storm Crystal objectives. I've visited all the planets at the anchor 3 and I have yet to see a storm crystal spawn.

I figured it was just the planets in that particular galaxy that weren't spawning them, but then I continued to check a few of the surrounding galaxies and after no luck proceeded to anchor 4.

I have yet to see a single storm crystal spawn. Only storm crystal I've gotten was from analyzing the geode you will sometimes get from harvesting di-hydrogen.

On my normal mode play through every toxic or scorched planet I've visited with extreme storms has spawned them.

Has anyone else experienced this? I play on the series X if that make a difference for troubleshooting..?

If you can recommend a planet that is spawning them in a nearby galaxy it would be greatly appreciated.

Or if you would be willing to meet up in game and donate the 5 crystals to me, I would greatly appreciate it. As I spent over 3 hours trying to locate a planet that would spawn them.

Expedition 6... a rehash of the whole game start to finish, plus bugs [Bug]

I quit. I would love to finish an Expedition. Never done one before.

But this is irrational and insane. This makes as much sense as spending 8 hours a night grinding for a perfect dungeon run on some MMO.

The sheer number of bugs and glitches still in play.Death isn't so much a question of stupidity or environment but rather the game itself getting stuck and doing something impossible that directly leads to death. Avoided a permadeath by managing to balance act on the edge of a freighter when the graphics gave out and the room chose to not render. Minus a full set of working upgrades to the jetpack there was no safe way out other than a force quit and abandon progress. But what has finally run me off is the never ending fire fights. One after another after another, a near endless onslaught. bad enough they happen at random often enough to be a constant nuisance, those are mosquitos. The real nightmare is the broken sentinel attacks.

Step in to defend a freighter and your reward is an actual endless fire fight with sentinels. At best there are 7, at worst 10 and "they never stop coming," the mother ship never gates out. 90 ships and counting, no end in sight. I finally managed to just crawls away from that one, and hid.

Gated out some place near the Anchor 3, and there was a battle. Something like 15 pirates and they all wanted to hug the freighters. Guess the game was working over time to scam me into hitting the freighters to provoke the Sentinels. But then here it comes, glitch in favor of the house! Once the 15 are finally down, high speed drones appear. They move about 3x as fast as any other ship, combat tracking cannot lock on, always says they are in some other location. Nothing hits them. Despite being only two ships I am taking 10x as much damage. Recharge, Recharge, Recharge. Trying to get some hits in manually. Getting hit...

Problem with Extractors & Silos - Is there a fix? [Bug]

At some point today, my many various farms stopped working. Collecting various different resources from hot spots of differing strength, of all different ages. The symptom is best seen by the countdown-until-full timer resetting itself to some number from the last time I looked at it whenever I come back. So, for example, my Paraffinium mine will say "1:13 until full", and counting down. Maybe I'll look at it until it says 1:11. If I go away and come back, it says 1:13, again.

I saw a similar issue with the Freighter missions I sent out last night. I was surprised this morning when none of them were back. When I eventually checked each of them for time remaining, they all had more than a day left. I haven't checked them again, but I suspect they are also frozen in time.

It's like my save has a time stamp that refuses to advance. I've rebooted and come back but it didn't do any good.

So, I happen to make daily archives of my save files every day so I can go back to yesterday and the day before if I have to. But before I blow away a weekend's work of progress, has anyone ever seen a bug like this before?

Please don't Elite Dangerous us (well if this is better than this, we ll just make them both suck)

Crazy idea for a sentinels quest line [Suggestion]

Basically the sentinels capture the anomaly and keep it in one place near a planet and on that planet they’re building a huge laser device to destroy the anomaly.

Then you get in a GIANT MINOTAUR and destroy the device!

Why do they want to destroy the anomaly you ask? Well to stop all us outlaws for good. They found out the anomaly is the hub for us so they have to destroy it. Ask more questions in the comments.

I know we have abandoned planets and the likes. But would anyone actually be mad if animals and storms (and even atmosphere) were removed from say 30% of most planets? No matter the biome.

It would increase variety, not impact bases and be a homage to the older builds where the game was more about relaxed exploration and sometimes the eeriness of an empty planet without life.

How to solve the "orbital base" disappearing problem ! [Information]

I used the "base computer animation exploit" to create a base "in orbit", that is a base placed floating very high in the sky.

(look at this youtube -link- if you do not know what I am talking about)

However, even if the method seemed to work, and even if I could construct the base with teleporter, galaxy trade terminal and other stuff in it without problems, later on the base was gone. After playstation reset and few days later, the base disappeared completely. Strangely, however, it was still visible in my teleporter terminal! nevertheless, eleporting to it put me in free fall in the empty sky...

​

a temporary "orbital base", a single wooden landing pad in the sky !

To solve this, I found the method below.

In a nutshell: when you reload or teleport to the base, if the base is gone, you will free-fall down. Quicly open the build menu, you will notice you have the permission to build, because your base is still -somehow- actually there! Quickly manovre the menu and build a landing pad(*) as soon as you can.

When you reach the ground, you can call your spaceship and try to land on this landingpad. It should be located a little below the original disappeared orbital base (how far below, depends how fast you created it while free-falling !).

Once you are there, exit the ship, look up, you will see something up there. In my case I was seeing the teleporter I created previously before the base disappeared entirely. You may see something else, but for sure you will see at least the base computer marker (you can activate your visor and use it to zoom if it helps).

Thoughts from an Exiting Player [Suggestion]

Myself and my friend group are putting NMS down, once again. Played closer to launch, there was not much to do, so we stopped. We have done a lot and still have some to do, but seeing that we have no content coming anytime soon, we are moving on to another game. We really had a blast these last few months, but the game is not tailored for our play style. We have 0 interest in Expeditions. We see the appeal, but it does not appeal to us. Expeditions are the only re-occuring content updates, other than the maybe once a year big updates, so Hello Games has excluded part of their player base from content updates. I know Expedition elitists will downvote this to hell, but maybe a Dev will see this and might add some content updates for base game. See you all at the next big update (Not Expedition).

Lowered Expectations [Suggestion]

At this point Hello Games could do whatever they want with Expedition 8 and as long as it's not permadeath people will love it. They could add a Hoverboard exocraft and each rendezvous point could be located at the bottom of a huge natural half pipe we gotta shred on our hoverboard. I would love that.

Pirates are definitely the most toxic in this game [Suggestion]

Anyway, they can always scan you and successfully intercept you, drag you into a pointless fight, I admit, it's fun to have air combat at first, but it's too frequent and it quickly becomes tedious and annoying.

when you try to visit a ground colony or a noman dealership, they can always bomb the building you're in, I mean, how? and why?great! While I was editing this post, my ship that was on the ground was attacked by pirates again:)

Some question from a guy who hasn’t played since launch [Question]

WOW! This game has certainly improved since I last played. I’m starting a new game but I have some questions about how the world works now:

Story: How should I proceed with the game, so far I’m looking for a character named Artimis after leaving the Space Anomaly the first time. Should I just bum rush this quest before getting set up with a base and just keep being a nomad or set up a base of operations somewhere?

Living ships: This is what brought me back to this game, and while I’m definitely loving all the new features and small things to do, my goal is to get a living ship, and a living freighter but I’m not sure how to do all this

Lastly: And tips for me, I’m sure there’s different archetypes I can proceed to play as during my time exploring space

Spoiler: Game Play Question: Is that it? [Discussion]

So I've played around close to almost 200 hours. Recently completed the Atlas path, got to the 16\16 Atlas 'thing' and went thru the portal and spoke to the Atlas then reset the loop. Now I'm in a new Galaxy and fixed all my broken technologies. Flew up to the Anomaly spoke to Nada (who is useless) and Polo just said basically don't care, loop repeats.

Now I'm just like is that it? Is that the game? Is there any point to keep going or is that the full story? I've been just flying around the 2nd galaxy but is this it? Just a rinse and repeat of the go to space station get missions do them and collect petty rewards? Or do I just repeat the Atlas path again and reset the loop again and do it all over in the 3rd, 4th, 5th etc galaxies?

Am I missing something or is there more to the story here? You are just a simulation and Atlas controls it and you just replay the same story basically thru each galaxy?

I really hope there is more to it b/c at this point its pretty much the same old thing just in a new galaxy.

Are there cities with NPCs in the game? [Question]

I only started playing yesterday and I really enjoy how diverse the planets are in terms of animals, flora/fauna, but in terms of people (NPCS), the planets seem fairly empty.

While I think this makes sense and is "realistic" for most planets (actually I like the atmosphere at the beginning of the game when being lost in space), it would be cool if one could travel to some sort of civilization further down the line.

I saw online that users have created city-like structures, but without any inhabitants, it would feel still feel very empty I think.

Can cities (either with NPCs or real players) be found somewhere? Or are the developers working on something like this?

REWARDS...RANT. [Discussion]

Ok, so this is a rant. But it's going to be a fair rant.

First. I want to thank HG for their continued hard work and dedication to this project. I don't think I've ever connected to game quite like this. Unique in nature and with never ending exploration opportunities. My dream game. So. Hats off to you HG for keeping this game alive and for the most part FREE with no micro transactions. Something I think we all tend to forget. It's not like playing Destiny 2 where every little thing costs you real dollars.

Begin Rant So if you're a member here or got friends that play you know the complaints of Expedition 7. And they are warranted complaints. It's hard. Like really hard. And it's not that the missions are hard. It's the not dying part that's hard. You're made of glass. Listen to this scenario, I landed on a planet to collect storm crystals as part of a mission... And this planet was a living hell. As I landed, there were predators, relentless sentinels, and the weather was blistering heat storms.... A true nightmare scenario.... I was collecting a crystal and BLAM a tornado literally comes out of nowhere, scoops me up and is hurling me around and around and around....... I literally panicked. I tried all forms of escape.....the heat was melting me, the sentinels we're attacking and predators were following my hurled body. I safely escaped and landed near my ship.... Got in my ship. And was like..... What.the.actual.fuck.was.that???!!!! I had to save and put it down. Way too stressful.

I ended up dying on the 5th Iteration on an airless moon trying to collect void eggs, where I jetpacked myself over a hidden bluff and fell to my PERMADEATH....of all the things that I had went through and escaped death by the skin of my teeth. It was my dumbass accident that merc'd me.

It was at this point I decided it's not for me. And it may be for some. But not for me, i casually play and explore...

Had a BLAST with this expedition. This was my first ever but played roguelikes before and this one was a bit stressful. I warped away from the very first derelict freighter I found and thought I screwed up that step, but in the end it all worked out. Had a nervous ending, thought it wiped it all or something, but I'm glad to have my space whale!!

For all the newbies having issues with this, make sure to check the portals, the community is out there to help with bases near points of interest and such. I'd say the most difficult part was finding an outlaw system, but then while I was browsing the portal system, I found a base that was set up in an outlaw system, so thanks community!

Thanks for the adventure, Hello Games

New to the game and bought an S tier Solar ship...not sure if it's worth upgrading? [Question]

Hi all!

I'm very new to this game and managed to nab an A class ship with 28 storage slots really early in. I just got "lucky" and found a really cool S rank Solar ship which I immediately bought.

It's much faster and better than my old A rank ship, but only came with 19 slots and even less slots for tech and item storage.

I just realized it takes millions upon millions of credits to add slots...is it worth sticking with this ship, or is it less of a headache or cheaper to just wait for a class S exotic/solar that has more slots? The only other S rank ship I saw had 19 slots too..

Anyone familiar with the grind and can help steer me in the right direction? After adding a couple slots to my ship, I'm broke as a joke.

Support frigates - do you bother? [Discussion]

So I've never really seen the point in them - never bought one in any of my playthroughs. So they can have like -9 expedition fuel cost cost, so assuming they don't add their own fuel cost to the journey (and I assume they do) that's only reducing a 50 fuel journey to 41 or a 150 journey to 141.. they would need 6-16 journeys before they paid for themselves in fuel... And considering tritium and dihydrogen are so easy to collect I don't see the benefit - especially since youll be spending over 2 million on one

I know some of you have supports in your fleet - are they worth it?

Old player returning. Thoughts on activated indium? [Question]

Hello fellow travelers,

I last played NMS about 2 years ago, returned to it a few days ago with the new updates rolling out.

I'm starting from scratch as I lost my old save. I've gone through getting my indium drive set up & setting up a very early AI farm.

Seems that the patch really nerfed production & I've seen the strats on stacking extractors & only connecting four to a depot/etc.

Has AI become outdated in terms of money making? Should I be looking at something else to do? I am definitely going to start working towards a stasis device farm setup, but I'm looking for some passive income now so that I can just upgrade my ship space.

Prospecting needs a touch up [Suggestion]

Don’t know if I’m alone in this, but it feels frustrating to me that you need to spend hours sometimes looking for a decent deposit of the mineral you want, need to carefully space a base computer between it and any nearby electromagnetic fields or gas clouds you want to take advantage of, and then get a generic “deep-level mineral deposit” marker instead of something more helpful unless you’re actually within range. On top of all that, when I log out and back in all my scanned points go back to being unmarked so I need to put a base computer down or else I lose the point and don’t know what’s there.

I get that the point of the game is exploration, and that they don’t want to encourage people to stay on one planet the whole game. As it currently is though, it feels like they should either improve QOL for prospecting or remove it entirely instead of keeping it in this unpleasant limbo. Even just letting you scan for resource points from a ship or adding some kind of geological planet map to keep track of points would go a long way.

Here are some of my favorite tips that I picked up over the past few months. [Information]

I discovered these by myself or heard from others. Trial and error, word of mouth, happy accidents, and more have helped with my journey. I am now sharing these with you fellow travellers, so I can pass on my knowledge. Some of you may already know all these, some of these could even be considered common knowledge, but I am still going to share. I may get a few wrong so if I do please don't hesitate to let me know so I can rectify any mistakes. Also, keep in mind that I play on Normal mode, but some of these can apply to the other gamemodes except Creative

When starting off you can do a pistol whip (q for PC), which allows you to harvest resources from plants and rocks without wasting fuel.

Once you have the Analysis Visor, scan every single rock you find so you can access their secondary resources. Different planet types will have different resources that can help.

Once you have a hold of an S-class scanner upgrade, install it onto your multitool. This will provide a massive boost in income when scanning both fauna and flora, which is basically free money. Who can say no to that?

Stock up on both Ion Batteries and Life Support Gel early on so you aren't scrambling to take shelter if you run out of oxygen or sodium. They're cheap to buy at Space Stations and can be crafted from the start.

Don't ever buy Starship Fuel, just craft it. It is almost always overpriced for how ridiculously easy it is to craft with Di-Hydrogen and Metal Plating.

Always go for the Damaged Machinery whenever you can. You will get either a handful of Nanites or a random tech upgrade. Who knows, maybe you'll get one of those broken S-class scanners!

When building a base, try to find a flat area free of terrain obstructions. If you need to tear down that hill, then it isn't a good spot to build on.

Is HG getting too ambitious with all the different ports? [Discussion]

Hi. Game development is hard, and maintaining a game on different platforms is even harder, since there are so many hardware considerations, possible restrictions and things that need to be changed etc. After today's Mac port reveal, I think it needs to be asked; is HG wearing themselves too thin?

Think about it, the game, at the end of the year, will be available to a massive amount of systems, larger than most games. You have PS4, but you also have PS4 Pro, and yes, it can be considered a different environment, since in the patch notes you can see them fixing PS4 Pro and Xbox one X specific bugs. All in all, the game will be, and is, available on PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X, PS5, Xbox Series S, Series X, Mac, Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch. If you want to drop Steam Deck from that and consider it a PC version, that still makes 9 versions of the game. If you saw the Mac World event the game is specifically built on Mac, and that can be considered a separate version.

HG is a team of 30 people, needing to continuously manage 9 different platforms, with all different hardware configurations, bugs, and restrictions provided by last-gen consoles and especially Switch. Realistically, can they keep that up? The game receives patches regularly, and sure, larger companies like Epic and Bethesda can do it with their multiple platforms, but once again, HG is just 30 people. And, really, who knows where it'll end? If they can get the Switch port running, they could realistically make mobile ports as well, since mobile hardware in 2022 is far superior to switch. Is NMS going to be the next Skyrim or Fortnite, available in all systems, and is it gonna affect the game development in a negative way at some point?

​

EDIT: Jesus, there are so many systems that I forgot the actual PC itself. So, make that 10 systems.

Expedition rescue appreciation [Discussion]

So there I was on a bountiful planet with aggressive sentinels and multi-player turned off. I'd foolishly landed on an island out at sea to get materials for the nautilon without checking my launch fuel cells or oxygen supply first. When I returned to my ship I was unable to launch and had no di-hydrogen left. I spent nearly an hour hopping between islands, mining dangerous flora for pitiful pools of oxygen to keep me going while unsuccessfully hunting those blue crystals, needing to burrow and hide from sentinels every time I exited water. When my oxygen was all but depleted I returned to my ship to accept my fate.

Sat in my cockpit I pondered what to do. Sentinels tried to poke me a few times so I was hopping in and out to burrow and hide and get as much time out of my remaining oxygen as possible.

When I thought "I wish I could make a distress call."

I'd forgotten about multiplayer! Network settings on! Pirates began to bombard my little ship but the panel showed three travellers had entered the system!

"Mayday! Mayday! I'm stuck on a planet with aggressive sentinels, oxygen levels are low, launch fuel is depleted. Is anybody able to help?"

Less than a minute after a brief communication to respond for location details a traveller had landed nearby. The pirates had fled the system but a swarm of angry sentinels were laying waste to the area, but to no avail. I had fuel cells sitting in my exosuit.

I took off and signaled gratitude to my hero. (I forgot to write down the username name so if you read this do raise your hand <3)

Landing on the nearby station I replenished my oxygen supply and prepared for the next leg of my journey. Grateful that in this harsh and sentinel filled universe, beauty prevails through the actions of our fellows.

Can’t fix ship or spawn working one [Question]

So I’m at the part of the story where you have to fix the ship, but the problem is I got back into the game after a very long time so I don’t really know where my other ship is, or where I landed it. I need a few “exotic” elements atleast for a beginner which I can’t get without venturing into space. What should it do? Just restart the game and try again or is there a way to get my old ship back?

Q about running electric wiring. [Question]

I've been playing the game since day #1 but I don't know why this isn't working.

Normally if I have several lamps, I run a wire from the first light to the 2nd light, then from that light to the next etc, until I get to the last light, and then I run a final wire to the grid.

I've placed 4 standing lights on my landing pad, but I can only connect 1 lamp to the grid.

If I try to run an electric wire from this light to another light or from a different light to the base grid, the wire turns red and won't let me connect it to anything.

I can connect the wall lamps, solar panels, batteries etc, just not these standing lights.

What am I missing?

I'm on XBSX.

Thanks.

So, is the final portal at the end of the Artemis path supposed to spawn on a world with aggressive sentinels, or did I get semi-lucky? [Question]

I basically had to pack everything I’d need to recharge the portal in one go, and as soon as I activated it, sentinels found me.

As soon as the cutscene ended, I practically shoulder-checked the one between me and the portal while sprinting for the exit.

It wasn’t a bad experience, honestly, it felt suitably epic for the last quest of the Artemis path, I just found it awesome/hilarious and wonder if spawning the portal on such a world is hard-coded lol

Exp 7 Anchor Point 1 Whispering Eggs [Information]

Hey everybody! I just managed to complete anchor point 1 today (yay!) And I left behind a pretty useful little base (on that planet) where you should be able to safely & easily get the whispering eggs you need for one of the later quests. It is called 'Whispering Copper Mine' (it's within walking distance of a couple copper mines too!)

I built a barrier around each of the nearby nests along with an upper platform you can shoot an egg from to safely start the swarm. Be wary because the little buggers can spawn inside the boxes but all the ones outside shouldn't be able to hurt you! I'll try and post a photo or two tomorrow!

I finally figured out the portals and used it to get to the Euclid galaxy. From there, I went through Hilbert to Calypso where I’m currently trying to survive through the conditions on planets there.

My goal is Eissentiam (sp?) which I heard to be mostly paradise & lush. But I have a question: Is it possible to use portals to travel to another galaxy?

Distress call to save freighter is spawning inside the planet, how do I fix it? [Question]

I waited 3 hours and jumped 5 times and got the freighter I wanted. I flew down to a planet that it was close by and made a manual save. I fly back up and save it but it was b class so I reloaded and tried again. after like 3 attempts I noticed every time I reloaded the save the freighter would be closer and closer to the planet and when I would get close to it, it would vanish. Now its completely inside the planet itself. Do I have to wait another 3 hours and 5 jumps or can I jump out and back in to reset it?

Wait... this a free ship glitch? [Discussion]

So I'm a new player. I downloaded the game not even a week ago. Today I discovered a weird interaction that lets you effectively buy ships for free. Kinda. Here is what I did. Be at a starbase and negotiate for a ship that landed near your own. Offer to "trade in" your old ship to lower the price. Run to your old ship and talk to the new captain immediately. Negotiate a price and... claim your old ship for free.

It seems there are a lot of little glitches hear and there, but this one was pretty interesting. I'm not sure how useful this can be, but maintaining all your old ships at a discount/free seems pretty good. I'm still getting my feet wet in the game, so maybe this isn't very good, but I thought I'd post about it anyhow.

Things to improve to turn NMS into the best game ever [Suggestion]

It's a game I've been coming back to repeatedly since 2016, being a fan of sci fi from the 70s and 80s it captures that mood perfectly, I find it stirs the imagination and provides a really relaxing type of gameplay that no other game has. That said, a few criticisms of the game are justified, eg the Artemis questline, the first few missions are a tutorial which is fine, but much of the 2nd half of the questline is just pointless busywork: go here, collect that, go there, collect that, go here, talk to this NPC, go there, talk to that NPC. The other issue is the dialogue choices, they have zero impact on the outcome/ending, they might as well just be cutscenes. The only other minor issue I have, and this is just a personal one, I'd love to see planets with cities at some point. Within the logic of the game world, I find it odd that three different races who have mastered interstellar travel would only build small outposts and research stations on the planets they'd colonized!

Art contest/raffle [Suggestion]

Something I thought might be a neat idea if Hello Games were to host an art submission contest and a raffle. The prize being concepts entered in to the game itself.

My idea would be to run it for a specified amount of time and will accept all and any submissions for anything related to the game. A landscape, celestial body, ships, weapons, items, armor/apparel, creatures, object.

They can hand pick their favorite(s), they could put a few to a vote and they can randomly pick any one submission like a raffle and no matter the submission they can take that one and use it as is, or if it needs a redesign, rework it to fit a little better.

Artists could even pick a name for the piece they submitted and have some brief description.

Expedition 7 Leviathan - you don't have to fight sentinels for the Pugneum Dreams milestone [Information]

Every time you shut down the sentinels using a sentinel tower, it takes out 4-6 sentinels. So just go to a space station, and use the teleporter to find a base with some variation of the name "sentinal pillar" (there should be a number of them at this point, people have been very helpful!). Teleport there, shut down the sentinels using the tower, then save and quit back to the menu, then reload and the sentinels will be active again. Do this like 4 times and you'll have defeated 20 sentinels and get the milestone without any risk.

Is the Settlement stuff bugged for anyone else? [Bug]

I came back to NMS after about a year away because i just couldn't pass up that Leviathan frigate. I finished all of that and hopped back over to my main save for some fun and right away got the Settlement mission to begin. I did a bit of that before i was off exploring and was alerted that the settlement was being attacked by Sentinels. After returning there, i fought off wave after wave of Sentinels only to realize something seemed to be going horribly wrong.

It looks like this has happened to a few other people, so i tried one suggestion to defeat the Sentinels in a certain order (everything first and then save the corrupted ones for last) but that didn't seem to work. I also tried finding a new settlement in an entirely new system/planet and that one immediately was attacked by an endless wave of Sentinels.

When doing the mission on the first settlement, i noticed the mission that was pinned would occasionally pop up and i saw there was a counter for 11 to defeat. However, that number never went down no matter how many i took out. I thought perhaps that the problem was that i was chasing some of them around outside of the settlement's range and perhaps that bugged the quest, but on the second settlement i stuck directly in the town square and still had the problem.

I'm not really sure what to do besides wait it out. Does anyone else have any suggestions or ways to fix this?

Not sure if anyone else is in the same boat as me but I am having a really hard time with the newest expedition. It’s not that it’s permadeath bc I’ve played permadeath and gotten to the center of the galaxy. Any advice?

Genuine Question, what's the purpose of Fighter starships? [Discussion]

It sounds like a dumb question, fighting, obviously.

But ship combat in NMS is so easy that they're absolute overkill for anything you're going to be fighting. There's no enemy I've come across that I couldn't kill reasonably quickly with the basic Photon Cannon with no upgrades.

So maneuverability? Fighters are very agile, but so are Explorers, and Exotics are even more maneuverable than either of them. Plus, some Pulse Drive upgrades improve maneuverability, and simply having 2 A-class Pulse upgrades on my Hauler brought it to near the same maneuverability as a stock Fighter.

So what's the point? The firepower is unnecessary and the agility can easily be rivalled by any other normal ship with a few upgrades. Outside of the Golden Vector, is there even much of a point in owning one?

Please add some sort of communication with others for VR players [Suggestion]

Been playing NMS VR exclusively and am really frustrated with inability to say or write something to fellow interlopers.

A day ago some awesome random guy gifted me with some great stuff in anomaly during my expedition, and only I could do is stand there, stare at him and do nothing. Well beside yelling “over here”, spawning pet and running in circles like an insane person.

Is it that hard to give us keyboard to write thank You?

You guys are all awesome and if someone not reacting to Your good deeds, big chances are he just can’t since it’s playing in VR.

Hey guys,

As many of you , I hit the save game base building limit.

Is there any way to increase this on PC? edit a file, or a mod or anything? Honestly i feel like i don't have any reasons now to play the game. i love base building, i was in the midst of creating my main base on a perfect paradise world. and i wanna know if there is any way to increase this or not.

PermaDeath Survival Guide [Information]

I have survived over 500 hours in PermaDeath by rigidly adhering to a few standard rules. With the latest expedition many new players are coming to PD, and I think these standards will ease some frustrations.

Bugs. Many avoid PD for this reason alone. But I have never seen any bug that instantly kills. That isn't what's happening. Unless a bug pops up that stops you from opening the menu and reloading your last save, a death caused by a bug is partially your fault. Should be an easy choice to lose a little progress vs your whole save. The moment something bugs and you fall through the floor for example, pause, reload last save. Saved.

Don't end your play session saving in a hazardous environment. Only end your play saving in a 100% safe place. Space Station is best.

NEVER leave your character unattended, no matter how safe your setting is. Even if you're just going to the bathroom real quick. It is not worth the risk. Reloading your save takes less time than starting from the beginning. Nuff said.

Play with a wired interface if possible. If all you have is wireless, you need to stay on top of your charge. Set a reminder alarm. All it takes is one disconnect while near a predator or monstrosity, and it's curtains for you.

Do not play while impaired in any way. One slip of judgement is unacceptably risky in space exploration.

Avoid planetary hostile threats at all costs until you have at least 3 S class exosuit shield upgrades, preferably 6.

Avoid extreme terrain environments and heights until you have an least 3 S class movement upgrades, preferably 6, and the jetpack recharge tech.

Avoid pirates until you have at least 3 S class starship shield upgrades and a stack of sodium nitrate or starshield batteries. You can call in a freighter or the anomaly to escape any scans.

Friends don't let friends use plasma launchers and geology cannons in PermaDeath....

Stacks and stacks of memories [Discussion]

Has anyone else taken to collecting memory fragments? I've been hoarding the ones from polo and the ones i make myself so i can cash them in for type X upgrades in due course. Hopefully i can build some storage to hold onto all of the type x upgrades once the expedition ends. Does any one know what happens to un absorbed memory fragments once the expedition is done?

If they stay safe in inventory, ill keep them in stacks, otherwise ill have to redeem them. Of course that just means lots of nanites...

Hi all! I was hoping someone could give me some insight into whether a Void Egg is worth the Quicksilver or not? [Question]

I have reached enough Quicksilver to buy myself a Void Egg in order to get myself a Living Ship. I've seen Living Ships landing in the Anomaly and they look amazing, it would be nice to get one for the visuals alone; especially after completing the Leviathan Expedition just recently.

However, I'm wondering if it's truly worth the purchase in terms of Stats. Does the Living Ship have a specific area where it excels in stats compared to other ships, such as Damage Potential etc etc? Also, sorry for the surplus of questions, but what is the storage like in Living Ships?

No Man's Sky Has a Problem [Discussion]

I feel this game has a huge problem. I feel that even Hello Games know this. The problem is much of the game is deprecated - out of date. It no longer has a place. The intro to the game needs to be reworked. It doesn't even serve to help new players anymore. If anything, it adds confusion.

The Confusion

After finding Artemis crashed ship, where we can all assume he died, Nada suggests it's time you come aboard the Anomaly. This social hub shows the player they can purchase technology via nanites which have become much easier to acquire. The player can just out right buy everything versus waiting to pursue the Artemis path. However, you can't just abandon that story line.

It's time to drop Artemis and figure out a new story. It's time to drop the base building path. It's time to introduce freighters much earlier and place freighters in distress more often than every 3 hours. It's time to introduce hirelings in a much simpler fashion. I'm not sure what the solutions are. I just know something needs to be done.

They introduced Expeditions. Each expedition has rewarded players with all the symbols for portal travel, ships, freighters, exocraft bays, and more. Then it does a 180 and says now do this stuff we let you skip. It's also out of place.

Expedition absolutely unplayable due to crashes. Help? [Bug]

I'm at my fucking wits end here. I can't even get out of my ship without my game crashing.

Multiplayer is off. Even turned off any possibility of anyone being able to join my group.

Started a brand new save (not much of a loss because I couldn't get anywhere on my last one without crashing).

I've even (coincidentally) changed to an entirely new PC with even higher specs than the last one and it still does this. I crash for any reason or none, I'm absolutely walled from progressing just by getting to my ship, because if I step out boom goes my game and I'm reset to my last save point.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do about this? This shit is gonna fail me on the entire expedition at this point and it's incredibly frustrating. I've not had this issue on any of the other ones.

Distress Beacons - Bugged? [Question]

I'm about 40 or 50 hours into the game, and so far whenever I come across a distress beacon, there's usually a downed ship. Sometimes there's a pilot and I just repair the ship and they fly off, and sometimes I can claim the ship.

All day today, I've yet to find a single ship. I've been using the Signal Booster to locate nearby structures, and have been brought to 6 different distress beacons, and none of them with a ship or pilot near.

So, I decided to use one of the Planetary Charts for Distress beacons instead, and it brings me to a beacon and says there's a ship to claim and repair.... but no ship is there.

I've tried restarting a couple times / reloading saves. What's going on, is my game just permanently bugged?

Likes for bases that turn into Nanites? [Discussion]

Lately, I've been grinding a lot for Nanites, and as I was doing so I was wondering what other ways there could be to get them (w/o cheats/glitches).

I figured, maybe it'd be cool if you could give bases you come across a 'like' on the base-computer (or maybe a new, unique base item - a 'like'-box, or whatever. Something you can only build once per base), which in turn would be worth X amount of Nanites that'll be transferred directly to the base-builder's account.

It could either be a once-per-player fixed amount of Nanites kind of thing (so you can like every base only once), or something like a 'donation' (not pledge). You substract any amount of Nanites you please from your own stache and transfer it into your 'likes', infinitely.

A bit like how you can 'like' other players' structures in Death Stranding.

I've come across many great bases, despite the fact that I technically play offline, whether they were just awesomly designed or really helpful, and I wanted to give them some sort of 'like' (other than a comm. station comment, which get spam-y very quickly) and something that somehow benefits the base-builder in their own progress.

Not sure if a system like this might be an issue for HG's server set-up, though. Maybe one of you knows if this was technically possible.

Sorry, if any of this has already been discussed in this sub in the past.

Ship customisation, an idea on how to make everyone happy [Suggestion]

Since it's always debated how it's just customisation and people saying that it will kill the ship hunting community I have been thinking, why not make it that you can change only the colours and decals/details but not the ship parts. A new base building added or on the space station shat allows you to change every colour and the decals/symbols (added new colours and decals) similar to the other vehicles we have but deeper.

The catch? Nanites. You need to unlock the colours but only once, and can use them after with every other ship.

You'd still have to look for that specific ship with those specific wings and whatever so no problem for the community plus you don't need to change the colours if you like them or don't care. People are still looking and sharing ships, who loves their ship can spend the time to make it match with their character and everyone is happy.

I just feel bad [Discussion]

I've just started playing the actual story of this game and something about it just makes me... Nervous? Anxious? I'm not sure what the right word is really cause it's not like it's in my face all the time.

I'll be running around playing with animals and scanning plants and naming worlds and then... A fallen freighter with its glowing core ripped out whispers to me of voids. A lonely, barren planet's horizon is broken only by the pulsing diamond of a stranger's grave. It tells me stories of the creature in a search for... SOMETHING. Lost audio logs on planets of acid oceans and never ending lightning beg me not to follow, but pray they can be found before they're lost forever.

My own home, my own settlement I've invited in strangers. A Gek overseer who knows me, knows my children was once a comfort. A friendly quest giver unlocking greater pieces of technology and lore I could not on my own. A Korvax scientist bursting with excitement, just coming of age to explore the endless universe 'alone'. My home and my supply a perfect safe haven for this tiny part of something bigger to grow...

Yet... The very moment I get them settled within my home something changes. Amid the simple tasks of building and gathering there is something... Wrong. Ramblings of the Gek on my destroying of planets thrown in at the end of dialogue. The need for weapons. The command of hunting out Sentinels to gather ingredients from their destroyed parts. Gone is my exuberant Korvax excited for the future. It it's place something new and wounded. A part of the whole that has been cut off entirely... Because of me. Because it drew too close to a Traveler... it is now being punished through no fault of its own.

I am left to only do as told to progress. Slay the Sentinels for the Gek. Offer what little comfort I am able to, to the Korvax I stunted by providing false hope... Providing them with a paultry replacement of...

Ex 7 - Derelict freighter - Did I miss something? [Question]

Ok. Used the broadcast thing to locate a derelict freighter, then engaged pulse engine like it said and indeed found a derelict freighter. FWIW I think i am in Stage 5 system.

Basically - I ran through the usual route for a derelict freighter and got to the endpoint where I got the captains log.

Along the way I also got 250 Somnal dust, the crew manifest, along with a lot of sodium, oxygen and various sundry bits, etc.

It took two iterations of the dialogue loop to give Polo 200 Somnal dust, and I also had I think ancestral memories that I had collected and had not turned in, although I have previously turned in a ton of those along with the solar stuff.

I sold the crew manifest and the captain‘s log to the scrap dealer on the station like it said.

But it is not showing the ‘investigate derelict freighter’ as completed nor the mile stone in this phase as completed.

I tried to find everything in there, interacted with everything i saw, looked around, doubled back. Shot up all the gooey pustule things, but as you know it is hard to see anyway and my eyes are already struggling.

So I am wondering what I missed?

Edit - add - fwiw this one had the defense turrets and floating drone spheres.

Gyro Aim: Would LOVE for this to be implemented on Consoles + Remapping of Controls [Suggestion]

I honestly much prefer Gyro Aim over traditional sticking aiming since its way more intuitive and more efficient once you get use to it. Would love to see this supported on No Mans Sky for PS4/5 players to increase accessibility. Would seriously speed up building, farming, and improve combat a decent amount if implemented well. Ive played games where Gyro Aim actually improved the gaming experience such as Days Gone, Horizon, TLOU2, Enlisted, and Paladins because it helped make aiming precisely much faster and smoother than traditional stick aiming. A much closer 1 to 1 feedback without dealing with Aim Assist, Accelerations, and other Stick mechanics that can create clunky aiming.

Undoubtedly, its not for everyone but would be nice to have expanded options for console players for controller. Also the ability to remap controls. There are some buttons I cannot stand such as Sprint on R3 and Scan on L3. Dont think Ive played one game that has them flipped like this. So its annoying since my natural tendency is to Sprint with L3. These 2 things would be awesome updates.

NMS Steam "Disk Write Error" [Question]

OK so I've been playing NMS since it released, have never had any issues with it apart from the normal bugs and glitches like any game.. The last update gave me a "Disk Write Error" on Steam and wouldn't complete the download. So I checked the SSD it was installed to, everything is in the clear.. I verified integrity of game files several times, cleared Steam's download cache, ran through several troubleshooting articles online.. Same thing.. Last resort for me is a redownload due to slow internet, but it was the only thing I hadn't tried yet so.. I uninstalled NMS, deleted all game files, then began the download to a new HDD (instead of the SSD). A day later it's finally downloaded and... "Disk Write Error" AGAIN and won't finish the download. Gets all the way to the end and just won't finish..

Has anyone experienced this?? I'm currently at a loss as to what to do now.. All my other games work perfectly, even had a Destiny 2 update that downloaded just fine on the same SSD. No idea how to fix this...

What's wrong with my infra-knife? [Question]

I've looked around to figure out why my infraknife isn't behaving as expected and I can't find anything. There's some mention of a nerf but it seems to be a completely different weapon than I remember.

When I was playing a couple of years ago I was frequently using the infra-knife as my primary ship weapon.

But I just installed on and -- it's worse than the photon cannon literally every way?

It overheats fast, but that's to be expected.

It does less damage than the photon cannon - even to unshielded ships! I have a couple of upgrades to the photon cannon, but still! Switching to the infra-knife never makes sense.

It's rate of fire is exactly the same as the photon cannon! Last time I played it had a very fast rate of fire, which was fun for mining and such. Now it is slow? What is the point of this weapon? Is something wrong or was it nerfed that badly?

Does the starship class matter? Will the weapon work differently on a "fighter" type ship than it does on my"exploration" ship?

Trouble with tracking an anchor point. [Question]

It seems to be when I pull up the galaxy map, with the anchor point route highlighted, I will HD to the next system in the route, open galaxy map, and the route wants to send me back to the system i just traveled from.

Am I missing something here? Im on the fifth and final anchor point and this issue happened on the fourth point as well, but I was able to remember which system was next in line and then the route leading me to the point was restored.

Varying skies on same planet [Question]

I am on a planet that has a yellow sky at day usually. At night it becomes dark (duh), but I found a spot where it doesnt. The sky becomes rather light blue and it keeps looking like day. I found out however that at this spot the yellow sky is around for a much shorter time than at the usual day/night places, and I prefer the yellow sky over the blue one.. Does anyone understand how this functions and if there is a spot/a way to find a spot where I only have yellow sky, or at least where I have yellow sky for a longer time without having night? As far as I could tell there is only one yellow sun, so I guess it has something to do with pole proximity, but Im really not educated in this topic.. Thanks

We can use the Walker like we can Hardframe Mechs, and even use the Sentinel Interceptor. We can hack into Sentinel Pillars and control the drones to do our bidding. We also can fight against aliens on foot, like roaming gangs of Gek wielding pistols. We can do spy missions. Special gadgets, grappling hooks, you name it. What you guys think?

Can companions (or your sentinel friend) be hurt or accidentally killed? [Question]

I'm still new to companions but I've discovered I love way more than the 3 pages I can have of them, but I've a question I've been too nervous to find out myself. Can your pets be hurt by you or outside sources like hostile sentinels or aggressive mobs on planets? I've recently enough got the sentinel drone companion and I've been gathering up a pet horde, but I've been too nervous to have them out to increase the bonds with them because I don't want them to die or get hurt by me or something else. I know it's silly to be worried about such a thing more than likely, but I wasn't around when the companion update released so I'm still actively learning about the pets and I oddly enough couldn't find any info on this question; thus come to the know all universe of this reddit!

I found a planet with pleasant weather, runaway mould deposits, and relatively chill sentinels. So, I built a mould farm—a simple enclosed base with some refiners. Every time I load in I get enough mould for about 1200 nanites. (And bigger mould patches may be out there.)

I have yet to see another efficient way in the game to make the tens of thousands of nanites you need for some upgrades. Is there some other more respectable loop we’re meant to find for nanite production?

Possible stuttering fix - older i5 processors/processors without hyper-threading [Information]

Hello,

There seems to be influx of posts lately regarding stuttering in NMS, especially for people who have older generation i5 or some other processor without hyper-threading.

The only tweak that has worked for me is:

Search "ad" or "adjust" or "adjust for best performance" in Windows 10 taskbar search.

Select top result of "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows Control panel"

Select "Advanced" tab.

Select "Background services" under Processor Scheduling, and then "OK" or "Apply."

Don't forget to change the setting back when you are done playing NMS, you could be robbing yourself of some performance in playing other games or doing other tasks on your PC.

Also what would be really helpful, is to report this to Hello Games:

https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket

Please take 2 minutes of your time to fill this form and describe the issue, and this possible strange fix.

Maybe we together can bump it up on the priority list of Hello Games if we spam them enough :) , and it certainly is way easier for them to troubleshoot if they have some idea what can "fix" this issue.

I don't know who the original founder of this fix is, but at least i would like to shout-out steam user bigbadbedwetter, which wrote a guide that I found while trying a ton of tweaks to fix the stuttering.

Flora, Fauna, Planet Details uploaded in server [Question]

I'm currently looking for mods that would further improve my immersion and gameplay. While I was testing out some mods, there are some that modifies planet details as well as flora and fauna counts (fauna, to be specific). Questions:

​ What is being captured by the server if the planet/flora/fauna details are modified? Is it the unmodded version of those object details? What about the fauna count? For example, vanilla fauna count is 5, but modded fauna count is 8. (Indirect point) For bases/structures that were edited using mods, will it persist if you remove all your mods (assuming that no terrain mod was used, hence the base/structure is still in-place)?

Some suggestions on how too make the game a little bit cooler ( my opinion) [Suggestion]

1.Like this is something wich was annoying since this game existed and didnt changed.Inventory,having no Space,Tons of items you dont know what to do with and you kinda waste half of your playtime with inventory managment asking if you need that item or that item and alot more.Like please just change it radical and with that i mean.Already give us the max inventory space instantly without us needing too grind for it slot per slot.its not fun and just is wasting time.i mean one another thing why do i need too go to different space stations too always buy 1 slot? why i just cant buy all the slots instantly? like cmon its so annoying. Dont let take materials too craft things takes up a slot.when we are already forced too grind/or buy them dont extra annoy us with slot problems.like with materials i mean the stuff you charge your stuff all the time.(my english isnt the best i really try my best that people understand what i mean lol,go ask me when you are not sure what i meant)

Add some meaning behind the content they release.Mechs,cooking,farming,settlements.Lets be real almost no one used that feature cause it was useless and slow as hell. With the new combat update they added more meaning too the mechs wich no one used cause they were slow as hell and had no real good sides.So maybe make cooking really rewarding wich awesome buffs wich hold for like 1-2 hours.Add more depth too the settlements and add more depth too general anything.

First time looking at the sandworm is cool but there is no danger to it,Like its 1-3 times WOW A SANDWORM but its just visuall and that takes the wow effect from me .Like right now an creeper in minecraft is scaring me more than this gigantic sandworm in this game.Wouldnt it be more realistic and great when the sandworm would actually destroy anything where it lands and it would actually leave an huge...

I was watching a video of someone flying an explorer class starship and it seemed that they were able to take off and land more quickly than what I thought. I’ve been flying with a solar class ship; I’m not sure if it’s the extra animations that make it seem like it takes longer to take off and land or if it’s simply and a case of a simpler looking animation feels like it’s faster.

Thoughts on Expedition 7 (possible spoilers) [Discussion]

Expedition 7 was my first expedition, so I don’t have much to base it off of. I honestly thought that all expeditions were permadeath, and that was a fun added challenge when it came to them, but then I came across a bunch of YouTube videos that explained that I was wrong. I didn’t really know what to expect when it came to what we needed to do, but it was laid out pretty well, and I was able to get the gist of it pretty quickly. I’ve yet to redeem the rewards in my main game, as I want to advance the story and my setup a bit more before I do, but I still feel like I’m pretty happy with them. I accidentally died once right at the beginning, before I even looked at the milestones, so I was pleasantly surprised when I realized that I actually kind of had to die at some point, and sighed a breath of relief that I did it pretty early. All in all, it took me around 10 hours to finish all of the milestones, save the community ones Ofc, and i only died that one time at the beginning. Idk how different this one was in comparison to the others, but I really enjoyed it and hope that HG does more things like it. What did everyone else think of it? I’d love to know!

Griefers: a complicated story [Discussion]

Hopped back into the expedition recently to try again. Today I thought i was being attacked as someone was shooting at my ship near the 5th access point. I immediately took off in my ship and fired a warning shot.

I then suddenly saw someone who seemed to be fighting sentinels and then wondered if they were panic shooting.

So I did the right thing, gave them the BOTD, turned around and started mowing down their sentinel pursuers with my ship from above. Whoever you were, I hope you survived! I was in a blue fighter!

Also, it seems like this ROC guy with the minotaur suit in the anomaly is really fucking with people. Be careful everyone!

Living Ship Exploit/Bug [Information]

I'm not sure if anyone else knows about this but I found a way to get S Class ships for free with a Living Ship. Take you LS to a Space Station or Trading Post and trade it for the one you want. Your LS should show up on a nearby pad with a new pilot. Interact with that pilot and you can claim the LS back for free. The LS will cover all or at least most of the cost of the new ship. Its a great way to scrap ships for nanites and units, as well as upgrading your current ships. Make sure you save your game before trying it because sometimes your LS will disappear. It works probably 85% of the time. I've gotten at least a couple dozen ships doing this, most of which I immediately scrapped.

I left for a little while and returned to find someone at my base exploring the gigantic tower I have build on top of a mountain peak. That was pretty cool. I've never actually run into another person in this game before outside of the Anomaly.

We didn't talk or anything they just hung around while I was building new parts to my base.

How to revisit a location without a beacon? [Question]

Hey everyone, new player here. I bought my first map that led me to an abandonded mining plant on my planet, and it looked neat. I had to blow open the doors with my ship weapons, ended up getting into a scuffle with sentinels, and had to bolt outta there once i realized they don't stop coming.

If i didnt leave a beacon there, is there anyway to find the location again? Are my maps stored somewhere, or are they only one time use?

The no mans sky alphabet [Fan Work]

I don't know why I made this

A is for annoying, which is trying to complete the leviathan expedition

B is for beginners, they normally get confused

C is for carbon, you need it for fuel

D is for destroy, its what you do to the planet

E is for euclid, it is a galaxy

F is for fall damage, that's why jetpacks were made

G is for galaxy, there are 255

H is for hovering, some creatures hover

I is for inventory slots, they always run out

J is for jetpack upgrades, they make you go higher

K is for kill, that's what sentinentals do to you

L is for leviathan, it is a really cool frigate

M is for murder, that's how you get meaty chunks

N is for no mans sky, it is an amazing game

O is for oxygen, you need it for the carbon exploit

P is for permadeath, which is depressing

Q is for quicksilver, you need it for the living starship

R is for rage quit, that's what you do when you die in the leviathan expedition

T is for time, you should play no mans sky for a lot of time

U is for universe, that's your device

V is for vy'keen, they call you an interloper

W is for whispering eggs, they give you some money

X is for something, I cant think of anything that starts with x

Y is for yellow stars, you only need a basic hyperdrive to go to them

Z is for zinc, it has no purpose now

expedition 7. not that hard. [Question]

I don't mean to come off as an expert. I only have 100 or so hours in the game and I gave expedition 6 a shot and now I'm doing seven. Other than the very beginning where I spawned and it was a firestorm the whole time and I would die before I could get to my ship, it really hasn't been that bad. I haven't died once since the beginning. I've come close several times but I'm just playing it pretty safe and the only thing I could see getting me would be a glitch or something. Has anyone else been having a pretty easy time or no?.

Disappointing and unimmersive main story ending [Discussion]

I've played No Man's Sky for some years, and I never had the will to finish the main story (Artemis). I found it extremely boring. These days I decided to finish it no matter what.

What a disappointment.

The universe is a simulation? Ok... That makes me feel playing it like a complete waste of time. Trying to survive? Why. Exploring planets? Why! They are fake!

Obviously no game is real, but the magic of the immersion is feeling like it is, specially in a game that requires an enormous amount of time to do absolutely anything notable, like gathering resourses to create whatever you need to discover the universe that is fake also inside the game.

Anyone else felt this kind of frustation?

By the way, excuse my poor english.

Powered Lighted Walls/Floors/Ceilings for Wood/Stone/Alloy buildings [Suggestion]

I just find the lighting to be the biggest drawback for building large structures in this game.. it'd be neat if they could make individual pieces that light up similar to how the modules do. Could make interior and exterior versions so your whole outside wasn't lit up if you didn't want. Lol a very minor problem I know, but I think it would add a lot to base building. Other option could be working with how the lighting works with current light sources. No idea how hard it'd be for them to do either of those though, just the dream lol

New* player, PS5 - where did my save go? [Bug]

Hey all. I bought NMS at first release for my PS4. but then went on to other things. I'm now back to it, with my PS5, having installed all the updates since 2016 for the fuller experience.

I started a new game yesterday and today went to carry on but the saves are.... just not there. All I can do is start a new game. Bit annoying. I was still on my first planet, had repaired my ship's booster and had explored the planet a little. If I can't save my progress there is little point in playing. Can anyone advise?

I did a search online but saw results about importing a save from PS4, which isn't my query, or answers about where to find a save file on PC. So apologies if I'm asking something already spoken of.

Scrap Dealers [Suggestion]

If there's one thing I hope they change/add soon is scrap dealers selling better stuff in exchange for tainted metal than some crappy decals.

Ideally, if they sold Salvaged Frigate Modules or perhaps random class freighter upgrades? At least something that makes gathering tainted metal remotely worthwhile

(I know they also sell "suspicious" items and repair kits but they're often fairly underwhelming and rarely useful respectively.)

Game crashing sporadically? [Bug]

I play the Steam version of the game, and lately have had trouble with crashes. No warning, game will freeze up then crash. I'm not doing anything specifically that would cause this, it just happens for whatever reason. I do not have any mods downloaded, nor am I playing multiplayer. This has been an ongoing issue for weeks but I'm now saying something about it because I lost half an hour of work on my new Survival save, and I'm ticked. I could try verifying the files to see if that fixes it, but the message that pops up when it happens doesn't give any information whatsoever. I've tried lowering the graphics, turning on airplane mode, avoiding complex structures even, and none of it seems to stop this. Does anyone else have an issue like this, and if so do you know any way to fix it? Btw yes my laptop can run the game just fine, this is a more recent problem

Since giving food to Cronus for nanites is so mind-numbingly boring and I don't want to install mods, I was thinking I could set up a macro to do it for me. Unfortunately very few macros actually work with games so I was wondering if anyone know of a macro that does and is easy enough to set up for a Gek-brain like me.

The sequence is more or less just hold E to talk > wait or skip dialogue > press 1 to give food > wait or skip dialogue > repeat.

How to have base names update? They all show as the same or as ... [Question]

I'm trying to get the expedition done on Xbox but many bases in the first system either show up as ... or they all have the same name upon loading a quick save.

The commu ity have spent time and effort to try and make other members have an easier time on the expedition but I feel this is being let down because base names aren't showing up. Just the creators name.

Is there a way to have them show?

What I've tried so far: Fully closing and reopening the game "Power cycling" my console and network Flying to a base with its name as ... Checking the s0ace station teleworkers usually shows more bases but those bases also are names as ... Tried with ingame option of being online or offline (in the game network settings)

Looking for some order of operations advice! [Question]

So I only played this game day one when it came out, and like most I put it down shortly after. Since then I've seen update after update come out, and I think it's time I pick the game back up and give it a real play. Problem is, I don't know where to start! I am looking for anyone to give me advice or even some YouTube recommendations on a roadmap of sorts I should be doing to start out.

I am the type of guy who prefers to take all the shortcuts I can to just get all the cool and best stuff asap, and then have fun from there. It's not as much about the journey for me as much as the destination, so any grind and tediousness I can get rid of I am all about that. I have seen that there are some dupe glitches and I intend to make full use of that.

Being fully down to use exploits and all that, What should I be doing first and so on? I am starting from a complete new save (normal mode), and have just watched a couple tip & exploit videos. What should I be getting for my character to make my life in space easier.

No Man's Sky VR will not Launch in VR. [Question]

Hello everybody, I recently bought NMS for the sole purpose of playing it in VR. However, every time I try to launch VR it does not work. This is what I've tried so far:

  • Run through Steam VR launcher

  • Start with headset on and off

  • Changed from the link cable to Air Link

  • Graphics drivers are fully updated

  • I have only one monitor and only one GPU

  • I have tried putting -hmdenable 1 in launch options

  • I have validated the steam files

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple time

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled SteamVR multiple times

  • I have fully uninstalled Steam and reinstalled it

My PC specs are:

  • AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor GHz

  • 16 GB of RAM

If anyone has any tips on what to do I'd appreciate them immensely, it's getting a bit frustrating haha.

Im just playing on a normal game mode. I found the space combat to be so easy its boring. Even dudes with a bounty of 100,000+ units, it takes almost zero effort to take them down. So there's next to no point in starship combat upgrades.

On Dying at Anchor Point Four. Twice. [Discussion]

This is not a post about rage quitting, but I’ll be honest. I was just a wee bit tempted.

My buddy and I are doing the Expedition and we’re living up the whole ‘Moby Dick’ vibe. We are determined to get the big prize and grind through Polo’s insatiable demand for three magic ingredients. That stuff must be addictive bc Polo has a problem.

We make it to the system for Anchor 4 and disaster strikes. I’m standing in my freighter, checking on my frigates, and BAM. I’m outside suffocating in the blackness of space. Before I can reload or quit, it’s curtains. A glitch did me in. Right then I was seeing red.

But I could still hear the call of the space whale… So I restarted, restocked my inventory, got back on my feet, got back to AP4. Aaaaand a wind storm smashed my rag doll body right into the ground. Well I wasn’t feeling great about it, but at least it was a legit death.

Now I’m standing on the space station above AP4. Bracing myself. Preparing for the dive. Once more into the breach in search of the great space whale.

I’m not mad about the re-wind-re-grind, about the death mode, or even about enabling Polos addiction. This Expedition is different, but I love how each Expedition forces you to engage with the game in a new way. Aspects of gameplay we may have overlooked or underestimated. The next Expedition will be different again. I’m digging the exercise in relinquishing attachment, and the Ahab vibes. I also hope I don’t f it up again so I can finally get that whale!

I’m so proud of Hello Games and Sean for their dedication to the art of video game design [NMS-IRL]

When NMS launched in 2016, it was one of the biggest launch disasters in gaming. We were promised so much, and got a game that was underbaked and unfinished.

I wasn’t a preorder victim. In fact, the reputation of NMS at launch scared me off purchasing it until last year.

And I’m so proud of what Hello Games have done with the game.

Hello Games are a example of what a games developer should do when they make a mistake. What anyone should do, really: Pick yourself up off the floor, and get back to work.

Other companies will take a year to give you a roadmap of how they’ll fix their product. They’ll charge three times the price of the base game (or more) for a player to get the complete game via DLCs.

But Sean and the lads have stuck at it. The game that I once dismissed as a waste of my time and money is now one of my all time favourites thanks to the dedication and passion that Hello Games have put into their craft.

I feel it’s important to acknowledge this rare devotion on the behalf of a developer in the wake of the release if shitpiles like Diabolo Immortal and Battlefield 2042. Those games were made by much larger teams of people, and were part of established franchises. They are both awful games made by awful companies with none of the talent, passion, or dedication of Hello Games.

So, thank you, Sean. Thank you, Hello Games. Thank you for giving me, and this community, a gem of a game like No Man’s Sky.

I just got CHEATED out of over ten hours of progress AND 4/5 of the Expedition phases completed because I got AMBUSHED FOR NO REASON by Sentinel fighters RIGHT OUT OF THE F*CKING SPACE STATION and got killed EVEN THOUGH I RECHARGED MY STARSHIP SHIELD THE SECOND IT WENT DOWN

F*CK THIS

This PERMADEATH BULLSH*T is nothing but COMPLETE DISRESPECT FOR A PLAYER'S TIME AND EFFORT. Nobody should be FORCED to play a permadeath mode in order to experience specific content. I am BEYOND LIVID at this game that I normally really like, and it sucks.

​

"Some people like the challenge!" Cool, good for you, but not everyone sees it as a challenge, and it's sometimes BLATANTLY unfair, which isn't a challenge, it's just the game slapping you in the face.

"You don't HAVE to play the expedition" Shut up. If I want to experience this content I should not be FORCED to play a mode where all my progress can just be thrown away because the game decides to screw me.
