I’m just ruining around right now. Idk what’s going on. A guy popped up and is building a base near me so I’m gonna find another place, how do I make anti matter now 😩
hahaha
Also! spoiler.
What happens when the purge drops to zero? I’m in that right now and I feel like I’m about to get wrecked.
lol btw 😄 my earlier question was stupid, cobalt is a resource on the planet next door from me
👀
👀
: So, du we now have to buy those modules to upgrade mining lasers, or can we still craft them with blueprints too?
Quick question
The atlas pass v1, how do I get that?
I saw online something about a guy named Apollo but idk if that’s part of a different quest or the same main story I’m doing
Does anyone know if they continued the Atlas Rises storyline with Next?
Anyone else come across Ancient Keys yet? Found ruin, asked for help with the past, led me to a ruin half buried, keep finding these Ancient keys buried with the tooltip: "A key of some weight, aged piece of wrought iron must be used in a lock nearby..." but im unable to find the lock? If there is one? Still digging up half the ruin thats underground but the damn multitool uses a lot of rock to dig stuff up and have to keep recharging :/
Nvm found what it unlocks now facepalm Dont mind me
@untold marten open up your utility bar (X on PC, not sure on console). If you're not sure what this is, it's the bar with the options for galactic map, starship communicator, call in freighter, etc. The leftmost option is labeled "Utilities", open that up and there should be a 3rd person option in there
if you have an Economy Scanner installed, the option to scan for a trading post is under "Utilities" as well
How to activate portal?
You need the portal glyphs to activate a portal that isn't part of the Atlas Rises storyline
Ah okay thanks
you can find these glyphs by following these steps:
- find a "traveller" NPC, they look different from other NPCs in that they use player character models. They also have a hologram-esque aura to them.
- Speak to them and choose "Ask where they came from" (Costs 100 nanite clusters)
- Go the to location that was given to you, you will find 1 of the glyphs at that location
- repeat as many times as necessary until you have the glyphs you want, or until you have all 16
it still works?
dumb question here: how do I start the story?
just follow the Log it will lead u to the story soon or later...
Is there a way to continue the starting story without building a base?
i dont think so
Well that's some bullshit if I ever seen any
im wondering if its possible to walk off a frigate and die in space
Give me back my space exploration game
since apparently youre allowed to go onto freighter frigates to repair them now
well its definitely possible to freeze, lol
I'm doing the Artemis quest again. Ho the memories
nice nms is the top seller in steam rn
can you still do the right dpad trick to find a crashed ship?
wait
do i still have my 16 glyphs
if i've already done the artemis quest line can i asusme ther eis no more story added?
The hour or so I played made it seem like the new story stuff was added toward the beginning, but don't quote me
i logged in eager to jump into the fleet command thing but there is literally an entire new game to learn
all my tech "obselete"
im not complaining
just saying. maybe even excitedly happy
Yeah, couple co-travelers said the same. Ended up recycling old tech 😛
I mean, if they're worth something and the vendor takes them, why not - unless you can break them down to base materials?
Again, speculation because I've only logged an hour (RL had other plans today)
i played 15 minutes
screenshotted everything like some kind of casual newbie discovering video games for the first time
HA - so did I
my before and after pics are insane
before is like childs playground
after is like the adult club we were all joking about
LOL
space stations feel like space stations now
Best example I've heard so far.
also
i was joking about affixes
we have affixes
on loots
literally
you can loot proc gen upgrades
mind blown when i saw that in teh patch notes with the examples
You know - I still haven't read the notes yet....
we are in nms- spoilers
True... #no-mans-sky
LOL
i could NEET in this game
do traveler npc's appear on planets or in the space stations?
at least a week of NEETing easily
I think a lot of people could.
Travelers appear at both types of station - ground and space
the travelers seem to be fixed now
thanks!
YW
oh?
jk
😐
i only explored my freighter and one station
lol
exploring my freighter was fun
anyone know where blueprint analyzers are?
for the 1 hour 30 i have to wait for scientist, does this tick down when im not ingame?
like what is this giant area
@lone bramble I don't think so, but not 100% sure.
okay
i have to figure out how to get all these new materials.. whether i want base or freighter base
@fair stirrup i bleieve you build them
can we still build on freighter with the same stuff as planet bases?
ah i see
@vestal tangle Frieghter room building is mostly with gold/silver from what I've seen, which isn't what I've used for base construction so far
yeah its interesting
i think they stripped out lots of stupid things that were just flavor before
tightened up the meta
added gecc
i lok forward to trying to create a monstrosity with teh char creator
once i build.. the char creator
😮
love that they upgraded the detail on ships
tonka toys to F15s
@vestal tangle there's a character editor in the space stations so you don't even have to wait. It has some buck wild options in it
where do you get your first freighter
I got it for free from rescuing a freighter from pirates.
spoke to the captain after and he just gave me the freighter and a frigate.
I just got my free one as well
first space battle after warping to a new system after visiting the anomaly, though I played for an hour or 2 there first
same
Anything new after completing the original Atlas Rises quest?
So, quick question: How do you get the antimatter blueprint in 1.5? I have the quest to craft antimatter and I am missing the blueprint
@agile orchid you are supposed to receive it just before being asked to craft it. I think you are one step behind actually, you must craft the fuel cell first, travel to a new system and then you receive the quest to acquire the antimatter blueprint
@modern parrot How do I craft it without the blueprint?
You probably missed a step, I got it from an NPC on a trading station
....I am an idiot. It decied to track teh secondary quest for making it before the quest for the blueprint. Thank you for your help.
so far next is a fun challenge..only one question, how to i get chromatic metal
is it a blueprint? or a resource? or do you need a buildable tech to make it?
You refine certain metals, namely copper
ok
is the actual story different after the intro?
or is it basically the same so far?
I only did the intro again so far
reached atlas ans dont know how to progress with base building any more LOL
How far in from the tutorial do you get that freighter?
I'm at the meet aliens part.
they hsouldnt give away freighters
lock it behind 200 hours of ingame grinind ang questin imho
lmao
I think I just got one. Can I not fly it?
i hope there is some endgame stuff
Can you not get the quest for the freighter if you are on an old save?
If anyone is wondering, ancient keys are used to open large artifact crates. It takes 3 keys.
thx cyber
welcome
How do you tell if you own a freighter? I had something say the captain got sick of commanding it and I see a purple freighter icon but I can't move it around nor summon it.
That freighter took all of my supplies. It let me transfer stuff and now when I reload the save it isn't in there and all my stuff is gone.
Does anyone know...I started a new game, you will get a ditress beacon guiding you to another ship. It appears you can only have one tagged location at a time. I didnt want to lose my OG ship so I built a base at the downed ship site, in case I didnt have a way to recall my OG ship or its location. Was this necessary? Was there another way to do this? Can you recall all ships you obtain?
i cannot comlpain. i visited 4 planets now and tehy felt different from each other
atmosphere
weather
flora was just A++
fauna still sucks hahaha.
the eggs im curious whats the point? do they sell well?
I found the freighter but can't get my stuff and now it wants me to buy it. I also get a warning of radiation poison. I think my game is broke.
: Is there an easier way to reclaim your old archived based? - I cannot find a wild base computer any where. Cannot get enough Navagational Data to use on a beacon to ifnd one
game runs pretty well for me but all of the press X and press Y realted UX stuff only works in some situations but not others. consistently though os i can list them off
im gonna start a thread on steam. someone else must have the same issue
game crashes pretty frequently... irritating
should I pursue "search for answers" if I have played and completed the artemis path in 1.3
so...i just got me a free 28 slot freighter
is there anything different with it?
is this a normal reward for fending off some pirates?
@uncut harness nope, plain ass freighter, but the captain gave it to me free
no I mean
the search for answers
the artemis questline
oh, nvm
but when i stopped the pirates it said something about how he was weary from the constant pirate attacks, making him want to give me control of the freighter
NEXT has been pretty damn rewarding so far!
do whispering eggs only ever unleash monstrosities on you?
so what advantage do those of us who spent countless hours building up farms and farming units to buy S class freighters haver over the free ones peopel are getting in the main quest
cosmetic?
skynet, my free one was only 16 slots
A feeling of pride and accomplishment
hm how many ships can i have in my fleet
@vestal tangle Experience of playing the game longer than those who just got it yesterday. I watched a stream where four people were playing multiplayer and those that knew the game were having a vastly easier time of it than the ones who were on their very first go.
I myself started a game in normal mode and found getting off planet to be vastly easier than it has been and actually more enjoyable this time around. I was playing for about two hours (yeah full time job) and I saw quite a bit of the radioactive planet I started on before jumping in to orbit and ending up taking a little trip to the station, wondering around for a bit picking up various bits of data and some blueprints before editing the character and calling it a night.
50
So all our stuff is gone ?
the crashing is really becoming a problem. Sucks to explore for a while and having not saved only for the game to randomly crash and I end up losing materials and currency that I earned.
At what point do the missions go from tutorial to story
How do you get your old base back from before the update?
I built a base computer but how exactly do you
Is the Original atlas rises quest line no longer a thing? All I have are the atlas and space anomaly quests.
Nevermind warped to another system and got it
planet hopping is somuch more fun now
also im curious
are oceans deeper now?
i found a radioactive planet with almost no land at all
kind of want to make it my hoam
Tbh I’m looking for two things
That perfect paradise planet and a planet filled to the brim with literal salt deposits
bought a new friegter where did all my old stuff go?
if u didn't transfer it, it's gone
There is no option to transfer if you got free freighter
so like i lande don a random planet. oops no trhjuster fuel?!?!?!?!?!?
2 days ago that same hauler had 1000s of plutonium
FFFffffffffffff
it needs uranium now which seems to be pretty rare
but you can craft a fuel cell with a metal plate and ferrit (the new iron)
so in a way its easier to refill now
Guys this is a story spoilers channel
im telling you my story

before its complete!
wow me too
im stuck on a planet with my 126,000,000 unit hauler
and i cant find any uranium
my max spec s class freighter floating abnove somewhere laughing at me
its kind of neat because im making sorties from my ship
and running back during storms
i just need a tiny bit of uranium
then im going to go back to the space station and buy 8 stacks of thruster fuel
or whatever it is in NEXT
told you, craft the fuel cells
hmmmm
1 metal plate and 50 ferrit smth
its the new iron and is almost part of every stone
thanks ofr hte tip
just made 1 unit of starship fuel ❤
now i can escape this weird iydllic rad world
it ruins your story cause you were metagaming by using my advice
pretty much
i had the componentts the whole time
my story of a slow deasth while my freighter captain laughs at me wont come to pass
Guys is there a new story
Where do you get your first hyperdrive?
Got it from my first space battle right after finishing the tutorial
i.e 2 warps, then anomaly, then another warp and there it was
got an 18 slot A class, so probably random
Wow that is a good deal
I started a new save because my day 1 save
Was use for like50 hours and for most of it, I fucked around and messed up my storylines
also
random fights will get you option to buy frigates
as you fly by fleets of random ships
its all done with starship communicator so no interuption to trip to next planet
space combat is same as before
so dead simple 😉
anyone break down the meta on frigates yet
i have 2 now
So is the space anomaly quest part of next?
So far I'm just giving polo data and having real time two hours between them?
Where's the story lol
same as it was before, just with a visible timer added to it
not really a story, just a thing in the background for various tech rewards
Nothing new story wise then?
I've finish with Artemis, RIP.
ok so
if i eventually get 50 frigates
and a fair number are combat frigates
will they help me vs those random 1 pirate ships that attack me?
Hey have any of yall experienced the Base quest line breaking
It is telling me to go back to my base computer but unfortunatley it is saying my base computer is in the middle of space and when I do actually use my base terminal nothing happens.
Okay I fixed it this fix will only work on PC but I edited the mission progress back a stage and it fixed it ...
whas the deal with landing on frigates
i landed on mine got some stuff
is that how we get stufff rom them?
if so thats fucking stupid
specially once oyu have alot
WOAH i found an s class frigate
@vestal tangle does a frigate assist you in a Battle?
i dunno
i just bought like 15 of htem i think
lots of cvombat specialists 😄
warping to a dangerous system now
with my fleet. lets see what happens
wait wtf i cant warp on ship
i have to use freighter i think
oh thats so fucking cool
all your ships warp in after the freighter
mostly they cost like 1-2 million
the A class were 7 and the S class was i think 11 i pasted it above
this is the ship i started with i named it of course
badly painted
now my capital ship is green.. sometimes its yellow. i guess lighting matters
ah yes the SS WTF is this garbage. A legendary sturdy vessel
fun bug
ok so you gotta kill lots of asteroids to make fleet command rooms
more rooms = more missions you cna spawn at once
do the missions complete while your offline th ough
soime of htem are 4+ hours 😦
gonna try being "offline" for ano hour while i do some o ther stuff irl
ill report back if frigates complete missions while game is off (ie time delta checks)
would be nice to start thei missiong before quitting for a session
so you get stuff on next session
does the no man's sky story take you closer to the centre?
Do you hvae to continue the story after getting the hyperdrive to unlock more things, or can you just go do your own thing after that
@uncut harness i dunno
I have like 5 foghter firgates they do jsck shit
Inthink they are for sending on missions only
The npcs still dont move hehe
Anyone know what rare orchids are for?\
@rose vapor You can go off and do what you like at any point, the story generally just guides you through all the games systems. Unless it's changed from atlas rises... if you want to do something but the game wont let you yet often the answer is to follow the story. IE theres abit where you need to make something for someone that requires you to set up a farm and farm resources. So the story tutors you on mechanics as you follow it.
can you do farming on your own though
@green widget I havnt played much of Next yet but Orchids sounds like a tradable resource. If you get an economy scanner for you ship you see the different systems economies - stuff like mechanics, electronics, etc. They'll be one where orchids will sell better.
@rose vapor to farm you need a base and you need to recruit people to work at your base (you recruit by talking to random npc's at spacestations) you recruit them in a certain order, one of the last ones you can recruit is the farmer who you do little missions for to unlock the different crops.
However I can't remmeber if that process of recruiting people is locked behind story progrssion or not.
it wasn't before, but now it seems to possibly be locked behind the gradual time based unlocks on the base terminal
I got the first storage crate from that, and seems to unlock 1 new thing every couple of hours
Hmm ok
What’s the best way to make units now? Also, whats the best way to reclaim our stuff from our old bases if we can... anyone ?!
From what i gathered from people is that once you unlock some good upgardes on your scanner and stuff, you'll earn a shit load of credits from scanning
You can get random high value items from ancient ruins now if you look for the past, also on the freighter there is a mission terminal that doesnt have rep requirements, so you can pick up high level missions with good rewards even at the start of the game
like the ones that gives items worth 5mill for a few min of work
can you unlock the Freighter without the story....
just watch out for the raid harvester mission, its quite deadly
maybe? every space battle I have seen so far had a free freighter
once you re upgrade from purchasable stuff everthing is easy again
Yeah that’s where I’m at after like4 hours re playing trying to fix my crap it’s a mission it’s self
Reclaiming our stuff from our bases we have to find a computer base on a planet ? What’s the easiest way to do that
has anyone who played the story during atlas rising noticed any major differences?
I was hoping that artemis would contact me after a few jumps in the hilbert system but i guess not
Yea
I still havent gotten to artenis
Artemis*
And i already have a frieghter
Dunno
loop?
Wow S class Scanner each plant 45k
Has anyone found one of those Coop Ships we kept seeing during Waking Titan? I didnt see anything about it in the patch notes and I havnt seen it in game yet either
Man. I didn’t think they’d change so much. I feel a bit overwhelmed. Like I need to start a new game so I can get a grasp of how things are done now.
this is what a fleet reutrning mission thing looks like
seems edverything i srandomly on pilots now
found random pilot with 3000 chromatic ore
More ships in edpwdfiton mpre rewards
oh wow
How much os max frogates ?
Also my s class frigate has a levelup thing
Soo what does that do? Increase stats ?
I had enemy fighters follow me to the planet surface and engage me. Turned into a dogfight while skimming the planets surface. Not sure if that is new or not, but I never had that happen in the original version.
@rocky kestrel Same thing happened to me. It was awesome but scary when burning into atmo didn't lose them.
@ripe patio it was EPIC!
Anyone figured out how to get a bigger Refiner?
Is there even a bigger refiner?
Quick Q - only played a little last night, after 3 or 4 warps I had a marker to talk to guy on a capital ship - he will sell it to me for 13.3m credits - seeing folks mention a free freighter after a story part, these are two different things? Worth sticking around and saving up for this capital ship?
anyone else have the Sentenls send ship[s after you when you leave the planet still on alert 3 or higher
they followed me i killed 14 of them but im on survival so i had to run to a spacestation to get it to stop no matter how many i destroyed
@uncut harness Black holes take you closer to the center
What do I do with the nanite clusters in my inventory?
they are broken atm, the next update(on experimental atm) will fix it
Can anyone tell me at what point in the story, it will make us leave the current system?
I'm on the part currently to craft Hyperdrive, is it immediately after this?
yeah, you need to pick up some antimatter to fuel it, then you warp to the next system where you then learn to craft your own
and then 1 more warp and the tutorial is done
the story starts 1-2 warps after that
So 2 jumps for the real fun, gotcha
Now if I could just locate the station again...
Sooo apparently I alienated a ship upgrade merchant or two when I asked them about the signal... (at the very beginning of the new story)... should I be able to talk to them after a bit? Because I can't even do business with them a play session after that event.
Hey, is the artemis questline still in the game?
yes
What happens if I reset the simulation?
Will I lose progress/have to re-start or some stupid shit.
you switch galaxy, which means you lose access to your base and any previous systems
but otherwise you keep everything
Not sure I’m a fan of Polo taking 1 hour to go through data in the story mode
doesnt really change anything, it was 2 hours between anomaly spawns before
just now we got a timer
Yeah, that's kind of why I only care about the story in terms of the tutorial
Beyond that, I know its going to end up with you going to another universe :/
And basically starting fresh
you have the option of staying
you pick between staying or resetting, you can choose not to reset
Question regarding Find Us, Hear Us, I just spoke with someone in the space station and my objective is now to reach the distress beacon. Did I skip part of the questline?
does anyone know where I can get the exocraft terminal blueprint for my base as well as the farming terminal blueprint for my base if anyone has gotten it yet
Yeah but can you do the questline if you stay @versed jackal
is the ghost in the machine quest bugged at the point "Locate Apollo's contact"?
I just can't get it to start or anything, and I remember it starting after you leave your first planet, so idfk
it started fairly late for me (3rd interaction with polo or thereabouts)
🤔
SHOCKED
Oh
lol
I found a bug
warp to different system
suddenly korvax freighter crew is now Vy'keen
pretty warped
I'm just mildly upset ngl
I warped into a Korvax star system and went to land in a star station, when I noticed the lines were red and it was using the pre-NEXT update model! Apparent...
Does anyone want to play nms coop with me on PS4 my PSN is : xX_chubbybear123
@wooden hatch Wanna play man?
@granite trail Yeah,im on right now,if you wanna play too.
My psn is xX_chubbybear123
Hold on
I won’t have a mic right now though so let’s join LFG 2 voice chat
@wooden hatch
I just found some whispering eggs, is there an easier way to get the larval cores than getting one than waiting for the swarm to die down?
I heard mention of using a terrain manipulator to dig under them?
not tried myself
I'll try that
Digging under them didn't work, but making a big hole around the area and making a small platform for the eggs did. Thanks for the tip!
Ohh I’m gonna give this a shot. Thanks Tiny.
@olive jetty naisu one. will be doing this myself
@hybrid pendant is that a mod ?
nope its not
Is it part of a quest it’s sweet
That’s really sweet. As well it looks like pre next haha
maybe an homage to the old station
and you remember sean said they rebooted it
the universe maybe those are the station that stuck and didnt rebooted 😉
L O R E
Yeah exactly what I think
I've found abandoned space stations back in the release week of the game. It's definitely not new
I thought the first freighter encounter, the scripted looking one with the pirates, was supposed to end up with a free freighter?
Is there anything new at the center
Anyone know what "Seek Knowledge Of The Past" does when interacting with a Plaque?
OK, seems to lead to a historical site
why can i teleport to my base but not from my Base ss
Hey when do you get the frieghter quest, I need to know so I can make sure I can get a gek one
you have to save a freighter
yeee
if you protect a freighter then 9 times out of ten they'll thank you with letting you be their captain for free
I’m now savescumming for a good looking one
I think there's a cut off in them offering you to be the captain for free, but they for sure seem to intend for players to be able to get an entry level freighter and starting frigate missions easily. I super wasn't expecting it, and it made my early game way more engaging.
Hello! First time not lurking here, I have a question!
When is the Artemis questline supposed to be triggered? I have been to polo I think two times and gotten my first freighter. Will it come eventually by chance?
I'm gonna ask it in here in case it's spoiler territory. Where do I get the blueprint to craft a Superoxide Crystal? Or am I able to do it anyway and I just don't know how?
You can randomly find the item for sale, or from mining floating crystals on the planet surface, its also one of the many recipes you can unlock by visiting manufacturing facilities and operation centers
this item that i found in a temple, "collection of dormant orchids," subtitled "biological sample," is it important to hang onto? it's the kinda thing i'd normally keep just because it's neat but inventory space is such a pain rn lol
ah sorry if it's not story pertinent enough to go here, it just feels spoilery
Floating crystals... what planet type do those usually show up on? I haven't found a planet with those on them.
@stuck elbow its a procedural reward(semi-random) that is used for selling
not sure yet where they typically spawn, I believe I saw some on a lush planet
I think I saw some on another type too but not sure
Hey guys, does any one know if the campaign has changed at all since Altas Rises? I finished the story missions on an old file and I can't be bothered doing it again if there is no difference plus I'd lose all my progress
There's not much difference that I've seen, no... small changes with adjustments to mechanics, but...
Yeah, Ive done the whole new intro part with the new building mechanics etc but I just got to the anomoly for the first time and it all seems pretty much the same
I don't want to spend another 30+ hours on it :P
so, I think "ghosts in the machine" guided me to a system without a space station, is my save screwed?
you can reset the mission if you move far enough away
like 10k ly, usually by using a black hole
a portal might work as well
Anyone else have issues with The Purge? I got the tea invite from Pollo and Nada - spoke to them and mission objective changed to get towards galactic centre. I understand I need to jump 16 times so I did that with the mission selected. In every jump Nada appears with the same message but nothing else happens. I have been jumping towards and visiting Atlases. I’m definitely beyond 16 jumps but nothing has changed. Halp anyone pls
has anyone found out what the subroutine:glass is all about?
subroutine:sentinel is pretty obvious. its about protecting all the galaxies from anomalys wich can be seen in form of the sentinels, but atlas talks about subroutine:glass too, which is operational in the artemis questline
4182 breach attempts
from what we got in the lore before next, its some kind of storage of everything that died? a backup maybe?
Anyone having issues with getting a Hermetic Seal in the first missions? started a new game on permadeath mode and have everything i need to get the ship up and running, but can't seem to find a hermetic seal anywhere, and don't have the blueprint to make one
did you follow the tutorial messages?
it should guide you to the first one
and then give you the recipe a bit after
my tutorial messages are stuck at "repair the ship"
yeah
have it selected
and follow it step by step
it should tell you to scan for a nearby building if I remember right
which you then go to and get the seal
ok thanks, i'll try that
Is there any reason to do the story? Do you get anything special if you complete it or should you just deny the story at the start of the game to keep it out of your mission log?
does anyone know what the exocraft wants after he gives you the cannon and you raid the depot for supplies he wont let me hand in anything i got from it but the quest says to return to him
@calm shell If you haven't done it before, maybe... otherwise, if you have, you decide... it hasn't changed
My main issue with the story, personally, is the amount of distant travel involved.
I think I’ll do the atlas path only just because I can see black holes if I complete it
I'd rather stay local, work on exploring the systems closer together where I'm at
I can’t remember if you get anything important during the Artemis quests
Maybe access to a blueprint or two faster?
unless they changed it, nothing much past the initial few missions, though when you reach mind arc it unlocks the scientist terminal if you didnt already get it
anyone had the problem in the last step of The Purge where the game is not counting down the 16 jumps?
Anyone else had a problem with the "Tea with Pablo" mission?
Just to be clear — the anomaly race is supposed to be those dreamers, right?
Trying to explain the story to a friend
The story is suprisingly complex lol
Tea with Pablo is what i'm talking about too @rustic ginkgo
I got the invite to have tea with them - entered station and then started jumping - im well over 16 jumps now and nothing
Yup.
It keeps msging me, but it's either a normal anomaly or a marker floating in space
yes
Yes
its called The Purge
Yeah
final step
Ohhhh yeah I remember that. Space anomaly?
Yes
before you get to choose to reset universe youre told to jump towards galaxy center
but my jumps dont cound for some reason
You have to be at the center to reset the thing?
no - according to wiki and others it's 16 jumps in any direction
What If I am lost now and did way more?
polo*
I only get called to go to the centre, nothing more atm
me too
I jumped maybe 20 times last night but nothing else happens - Polo and Nada message me same thing every jump and tell me same things as if it's the first time we talk about it
^
Welp I'm stuck right now
Ghosts in the machine is an awful quest.
Why would you get the player to fight sentinels this early on?
And especially sentinel walkers?
Like come on I can't get through the reinforced door because I can't build a plasma launcher, because I don't have the stupid superoxide crystals.
Screw it I'm doing the base stuff first.
Apollo can sod off.
any ammo using weapon can get through the door
It's about time.
I don't have enough health to get through it with the boltcaster
also, did you buy the personal shield module?
And I can't get my ship close enough without the sentinels going mental.
its VERY good
its almost op
way better alt button use than the grenade
it blocks any projectiles in front of you
for a small life support cost
Nope I didn't buy it.
you can stand in the open and kill a walker without taking damage
with a mining laser
Still looking for a damn S class module for my multitool
The game was very generous and gave me a free 18 million units for finding an item in the ancient treasure things.
Personal Forceshield*
So I have a C class freighter and like 3 to 5 frigates.
I do have an A class scanner module at least.
the next time you can, buy it at any station, its always for sale, its a huge help in combat
and another one @rustic ginkgo https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/91y0wl/is_the_purge_mission_glitched_for_anyone_else/
Apparently for that you keep warping until the 16 updates or something along those lines.^
I'm 20 warps in and no update
What's it called exactly @versed jackal ?
Is it just the shield module (insert class here)?
Personal Forcefield*
its a craftable tech
not one you buy, you buy the recipe
it takes the alt fire slot, and blocks all laser fire in front of you for a small life support cost
so you can stand in front of a walker, and block the laser every time it shoots then attack it in between
yeah
2 ion batteries and a technology module
its really op if you got any kind of life support upgrade already
and a decent amount of oxygen
makes you pretty much invulnerable to walkers
doesnt really help vs melee enemies or getting swarmed though 😦
Still have the problem of the door taking ages to open
I'll see if I can do it after I warp and complete this mission for my base guy.
The marrow bulb one.
Hello I have questions is it possible to just ignore the story altogether and have access to the rest of the game?
I just want to mine shit, sell it to the highest bidding system, do missions for people for sweet sweet cash and maybe just maybe set up a base somewhere without having the story be like
"Hey why dont you uh go build this somewhere? Why dont you talk to that one guy huh? Come on"
I just got to the first space station after like 2 hours and the game is still like "Hey do this so you can do this other thing" but I just do not want to, when does it stop.
finish the tutorial and you can do pretty much whatever
it ends when it asks if you want to seek the atlas or free explore
after 2 warps
Is "beginnings" the tutorial or is there more, Im not finding any specifics on the wiki or anything.
I already know the ending but I gotta learn all the stuff so I can drown in credits and laugh
what mode are you in?
Normal
huh, though that was the name of another quest, awakening is the tutorial + the name of the first story mission
Maybe? idek its just assing me super hard to get new objectives every 2 minutes and never stopping
Also are all planets hazardous over something because the first two I went to were poisonous and frozen, and the previous times I gave the game a chance it was the same but also super hot.
Planets are much more dangerous now
My base is on a moon where it rains all the time and storms roll in every 5 minutes lol
Kuzen 72/B8 is it's name.
Weather: Intense Heatbursts
Sentinels: Relaxed
Frequent flora and fauna
Guess I'll die
Nope I haven't died to it yet.
I got a base on a high building density frost planet, with a neighboring lush planet that has relaxed sentinels. in survival
I have an S class jetpack boost so that's fun.
I pray for sentinels that wont shoot me on sight, christ.
I wish it was a bit easier but the only easier difficulty is straight up god mode
Stop mining when they scan you lol.
If they're red avoid them at all costs.
Some of them stay red always.
If you go to your discoveries you can check your planet status.
Ah that's good to know. Well if the story stops being annoying in the bottom right corner when the tutorial ends I guess I'll get that over with and start my quest to buy the universe
I hope at one point they introduce a way to start alrerady on a space station ready to go dick around the way you want to from the get go
Nah they won't do that probably lol.
Just go in creative if you want basically no limits.
creative mode?
^
unless you just mean to skip the whole ship repair process
I love that all the timed stuff is now real time
yeah, that's a big improvement
I do want limits, I want to struggle, but I dont wanna be forced into a long ass tutorial if I wanna start a new game or whatever.
i don't like the time gated base stuff though
How do I hire an armorer? Do they have to be in a Vy'keen system?
yes
have to place the terminal then go to the marked system
or atleast a vy'keen one
To be exact
They're superheated rainstorms
On a moon
Just found a scanner module (S)
Not enough nanite clusters
How long do merchant inventories last until they change?
one reload
when you find a S module at a merchant you can buy it, save, reload and it will be there again
oh i misunderstood your question. i would guess that the inventory wont change, as always
Sooo, I reached to center but can't teleport to it
Arid planets count as scorched ones.
Thank god. Solanium is in my base system at least.
@spring sluice hey man!
What do I need to do to go in another galaxy?
Reach the center?
Isn't there portals to teleport around with glyphs?
I didn't do the story at all btw lmao
@spring hull just checked wiki again and info is here : https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Eissentam
check the summary section
@rustic ginkgo You have to choose "waypoint to center of the galaxy" in the star map
I have done that
You need a fully charged warp drive
let me try it with a fully stocked one
@spring sluice thanks a lot. But we can teleport using glyphs right?
@spring hull if you're not bothered about storyline spoilers, this is the quest that will get you there quickest : https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Storyline_(Atlas)#The_Purge
Okay I won't read and just go through the story
My current main quests are : Atlas path
The one with Artemis the explorer, I have to find a Holoterminus and activate it
@spring hull yeah but only 1 galaxy at a time. i got to eissentam that way because i had to, had already chose different option in main story. had to jump through every other galaxy before it to get there and I don't recommend it. :P
And space anomaly
Atlas path and Artemis questline are two different main quests
Still won't let me warp @distant crest
@spring hull yeah the one with artemis will lead you to where you want to be.
@spring sluice okay thanks man!
I'm just warping around between solar systems
There is nothing interesting
Dead planets, no space stations
Or dangerous planet
I'm trying to find a planet Earth-looking to set up my base
@rustic ginkgo Are you at the nearest star on the wapoint to galactic core?
@spring hull one thing you should note is this from wiki : "The Lush galaxy is a type of galaxy with increased chance of lush planets in yellow star systems, and will usually show as Tranquil when choosing a galaxy. However, this type can alternatively go under the names Inspiring, Serene or Halcyon." Because if you get to the choice it could be any of those names from what I remember. But that might've changed with next, no idea.
https://imgur.com/a/OOzUUyc @distant crest
@spring hull yeah you can find decent planets where you are, just harder though.
Okay seems fixed
it works now?
hearing music and interstellar travel backwards
yes, you did it 😉
@spring sluice okay thanks. Damn this game is complicated 😭
That was beautiful
I still got all my stuff
I might have a problem lol
I need to repair my stuff but I can't mine stuff because my mining laser is broken
@spring hull haha yeah it can be at the start, gets easier though.
I bought the game 2 years ago
But it is still complicated
Just got back playing NMS with NEXT
ah ok. haven't had the game that long here but got a bit obsessed at times. am kind of lost again though with next along with others at the moment. :P
Yea me too lmao
feel like i'm battling bugs as much as learning the new content. should get better soon hopefully.
pc
with a control pad too 
just can't get used to keyboard and mouse after using consoles for so long before getting a pc.
Yea... I'm trying to save money to get a PC
PS4 getting pushed to the limits with NMS
yeah it sucks, but after patches it might get quite a bit better.
gonna go and test getting killed again, see if i get my inventory back from graveyard this time :P
@spring sluice i just lost a module lmao
Noooo :(
I lost it using the raffinery
I don't know how but I saw it "grabbed"
Clicked cancel : disappeared
Okaaay
Maybe not after second checks... It's weird... I saw a module being grabbed
am ok here i think, had a mad bug earlier that ported me into the end of a battle just before i got killed. it completely cleared my exosuit inventory too. just tested getting killed though and it's only ship inv that's cleared out. can't remember if that was how it was before next but at least my inv is still there.
gonna have to go and ask now, not sure if it's working right :P
Yea 😭 looks like a nasty bug
yeah someone else in another channel had it. just a bug i think and am gonna make sure i keep backup up saves, also keeping important stuff in other storage if possible.
Anyone having Portal Interference issues?
When I talk with Palo in the anomoly ship what upgrade path should I choose?
Which is ze best
multitool or ship
I want to make sure I didn’t miss anything in base building tutorial. All it had me do was build 4 wooden floors and a roof. Are there other tutorials later on?
For base building, where do I find more salvage technology so I can get more parts for my base?
Is there any new story in next at all?
Is there someone that’s done a bunch of story stuff that wouldn’t mind chatting with me for a bit!? I have one question about something.
So once you complete the Story and reach the center / new galaxy does the story reset/restart or are you basically in Free Explore mode at that point and can keep reaching the center on your own and finding new galaxies?
I did all the atlas stuff and I believe it asked me if I wanted to restart through a black hole (but keep all my ships and stuff) or if I wanted to keep trying to go to the center
I don't know what'll happen when you reach the center, though.
End of the main story is at the center. Blackhole is just a warp.
@pure yacht i'd like to know that too.
can we agree that this patch is hhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnggggnnnnEXT
the npcs all still have space polio
but someday HG will cure space polio
for now we willi do theirt quests since they cant get around
This must have been answered a gazillion times already but can you do the Atlas and Artemis path storylines at the same time or did I manage to block Artemis story completely by choosing the Atlas path?
I remember things being a bit different on Atlas Rises.
Ive been doing them both at the same time
almost done with atlas
about halfway through with artemis
when does atlas end
i have like a dozen receipts from them, all looking like colored atlas stones
Can anyone tell me how to build an exocraft?
you need a base
So I'm at the choice in the Artemis story
how big is the difference between what you choose?
Hello. I'd like to know how can I hyperdrive? I didn't play much for a long time, and I started new save for Next. Currently, game expects me to craft and install hyperdrive, but I have no idea how to obtain blueprint for that. Can I just check technology traders from time to time, or I need to do something very specific?
Did you visit a crashed freighter while following the tutorial?
When you interact with the thing in the center it should give you the recipe and get to the point in the quest you are
I don't remember it well, to be honest. I visited crashed freighter for sure, but I don't know if it was the right one - one more I found by beacon.
Hm, but I'm pretty sure I followed tutorial closely
I have another crashed freighter on the radar, so I'll check it now, thanks. If it won't work, I'll be back 😉
Fraighter salvage mission. It's what I am looking for... I suppose?
I'm pretty sure you just have to follow main quest and eventually it'll lead you to the blueprint. It's part of the tutorial.
Also, be sure to check the ground below the freighter with your scanner to find cargo.
You can access it by digging with the tool and repairing the boxes.
Additionally, read through your blueprints in the inventory. One of them might give you a hint.
It's what I assumed 😄 All cargo I retrieved already, still no clue. I'll check blueprints as you suggested
Btw, I built blueprints analyser earlier, but it also didn't help.
Nope, I still have no idea what to do now
Ok, maybe i didnt get it right, but do you have a hyperdrive on your ship?
No, I don't have hyperdrive on my ship. I repeired ship, built a small so-called base, followed distress signals, etc. If I remember correctly, I got navigation data that lead me to totally empty place on another planet, then I got instructions to install hyperdrive on my ship. The problem is, I do not have hyperdrive blueprint, and I have no idea how can I obtain this.
Ye, that's weird because I had a drive with one jump left.
Ouh
When did you get it? Maybe I just skipped some part of tutorial, but... I don't think so.
wasn't supposed to be an empty space
the place it guided you to was supposed to be a crashed freighter
which then gave the hyperdrive recipe
the tutorial mission guide that is
When are you supposed to get your free freighter ?
Hum I just encountered the Anomaly for the first time, haven't warped enough to trigger a space battle
its right after the anomaly
So, game algorithms failed to place crashed freighter on specific spot.
But I encountered crashed freighter earlier - not sure anymore if it was story encounter, or the random one, but I received log about sentinels fighting themselves, and mission to retrieve cargo drops.
thats just the mission that happens at every crashed fighter
I did it already, and it seems there is nothing more to do here
nothing to do with the tutorial
It's nothing I can do now? Just start new game?
on pc you can save edit to fix it, but otherwise yeah
you are supposed to get the recipe at the same time you get the quest to make it
I recommend just following the tutorial closely, and dont go too far off track until it finishes after a couple of warps
I'm playing on PC. Yeah, I was sidetracking a bit.
So maybe it's a cause, and maybe it's a hope 😉
can use https://nomansskymods.com/mods/no-mans-sky-save-editor/ to give yourself the hyperdrive recipe and continue from there
I'll try, thank you very much!
Question. Unexplored systens arenthey empty of npcs?
Would be nice imho
Also...i heard you can upgrade space stations.. what did those people mean
Is there any reason why I would not want to search for answers? Would there be any benefit in making the choice to free explore?
So wait, I have been doing both the nada and polo storyline as well as the Artemis storyline at the same time
Ive been seeing nada and polo throughout the whole game but just now its introducing me to them as if its my first time meeting them
what
hey, so i just got Alone Amidst The Stars and found the crashed ship & beacon, i fixed the beacon & now have "search for clues about Artemis" & now i can't interact with it anymore, & weirdly the "beacon" waypoint is now pointing to the crashed ship. am i good?
i've just heard all kinds of stuff about how this quest will screw you if you don't do exactly the right sequence of actions, lol
oh yeah, & the only thing i can do with the ship is "claim" it, that's what actually made me think something was weird
Hey guys, I've started a new save and I can't seem to advance. I've been completing things for Polo. Does the story go anywhere from here? Do I have to do something else?
It doesn't seem like doing the same thing over and over is the right way to advance the story
Check your mission logs
There should eventually be something about a distress beacon and finding Artemis. Idk what triggers it exactly.
when the heck do I get the base quest to get an overseer? My base keeps giving me a single blueprint then "defragging" for an hour and a half real time.
How long does that last
Guys, need assistance
If i've choosen "Explore Freely"
Can I come back to anomaly quest?
I have a question about the Artemis story. I did a whole bunch of it (found out what 16 means, that timer has started) and the next quest is basically to go to the center of the universe. Does that mean I've basically finished it other than that last step? Or is it a ruse and I should keep pushing forward. Basically I wanted to finish Artemis and start base building and whatnot
@short geyser you dont need to go to the center, you just need to warp 16 times, after that you get transported to an atlas station and get the choice to either reset the galaxy or not to reset the galaxy. i think theres other events in between but thats the gist of it
@balmy mural Right on, thanks.
👌
So if you choose to explore freely then it deletes you base and everything you done ? ?

No?
how do i debrief commander. when i click Debrief commander says not enough space i have made plenty space but still no space.
is there space on your freighter?
thats the spot most stuff goes
you can get a LOT of stuff
yeah i have clear most of it but not enough
some rarer stuff goes in your suit inventory
I had an expedition return earlier with 15 stacks worth of stuff
just 2 ships
Is it possible to do every quest line?
Not if you can't finish a quest due to a bug.
@still flume he's communicating through the world of glass
world of glass? O.o
where all dead things go
has anything regarding the lore been updated with 1.5?
like, the REMEMBRANCE logs, for instance?
or the ending of 1.3 where it says 16 mins left?
if it hasn't, that's a bit of a plothole iirc. 16 mins left is no longer 16 mins because people can see each other. it would be closer to 10
but I did notice they changed some text at the beginning, so they probably did at the end too
frigates are a mess
i have some damgaedd ones
and it says find the damgaed parts but i cant seem to
also MP is kiund of dumb.. i cant find the pllayer i join
im hoping thery add optuional tracking
so i'm doing The Purge
and nada keeps messaging me to come inside because the universe isn't safe
but he doesn't seem to have any dialogue beyond saying everything is code, and letting me ask about black hole locations and atlas stations (which he apparently can't find)
@vestal tangle Once you land on a frigate's landing pad you can exit your ship to find the damaged modules
@carmine blaze itried in vain couldnt
i found paradise planet in an uniinhabited star sy stem yayyyyyy
@vestal tangle i found that planet as well... but i renamed it...to LIES LIES LIES.
hahaha
yeah extreme weather
sentinels that are insanely aggressive even tho planet says passive
i landed in the ocean area
gonna setup shop
but what do i setup
im thinking cosmetic base as regular units have no value
Quick question: can you put multiple base terminals in one room? Ie scientist, construction etc or is it still one to every room?
depends on what you call a room
max 1 per room block
that could be 1 floor panel
or 1 full cylinder room
or a cuboid room
So who has read through the new traveller log?
some interesting stuff there about the world of glass
@uncut harness have you seen it? 10 new log entries with stuff
spoilers: https://pastebin.com/ecvxYUX2
So I have the Purge mission going from PRE-NEXT, got a bad feeling it will crash my game in the end, lol. What happens when the countdown ends?
it points you to a portal
Ok good
if you go through it, you get a choice that is permanent
I thought it would make me go through a portal
But if its just an indicator i will ignore it for now
I know about the end decision
I want to avoid being hurled somewhere completely different than I am with the unreliability of base portals and such right now lol
Thank you for the info tho @versed jackal
Is there anywhere I can go to read about the story/lore/WT story other than gamepedia? it seems like they're missing a bunch and some of the writing is really weird
I also want to know what NEXT has added
I hate this base computer sidequest, I need to go to my first base which is at a trash planet to complete it, can I somehow do this quest at my new base?
@nocturne karma I got my pastebin with most of the logs you can find, but the main story is not there, also mostly not updated for next yet
expand (the guy I pinged earlier) wrote up some lore theories based on what we know so far
Omitting anything else- did I make the right choice in lying to Apollo about Artemis, or did it not matter
So what does the star seed actually do, if anything?
For folks who are playing the story line: I found my first anomaly and noticed there’s a reset timer of two hours for polo. So what would stop a player simply from staying in same system and visiting him over and over again every two hours?
kill him lol @warm lance
Bc its the correct option
Ends their suffering
oof
The anomaly quest for polo is a sidequest that gives a few recipes(mostly atlas pass v1-v3), the 2 hour wait is just a wait before it checks for the next milestone, each reward requires you to reach a certain milestone of 1 kind or another
Has anyone seen an item called Epic Manuscripts?
sounds like one of the randomly generated items that are for selling
Is it ever revealed HOW Artemis died?
The only thing I can grasp, is that he went through a portal, and poof. death. Or may be he was dead prior to the portal? much lore.
From what I've read, I'm pretty sure he died when he went through it. Glass infested him after that
Also, read through the logs, @versed jackal. Super interesting stuff. Thanks for letting me know of that
@nocturne karma https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KW10XHB83GcSSjndO6SYQBSt8VELPlnxxcPdRz6WEOE/edit?usp=sharing
Might help you a bit. This is mostly tinfoil theory time, but there are summaries for both seasons of WT and a way to connect NMS & WT.
I know I am supposed to be getting a message from Artemis at some point? Is anyone else not getting theirs? I got to the anomaly/polo portion but have yet to see Artemis contact me. Not sure when its supposed to happen!
artemist is after that
you need like 2-3 warps after the tutorial
tutorial lasting from the start until a bit after your second warp
Ok so Polo/Anomaly starts before Artemis?
yes
Thank you!
Was the code on the back of my Atlas Pass V4 ever good for anything?
go to weird signal
broken ship there
Holy fucking shit the resources to fix this thing is unbelievable
Like 4000 chromatic metals
2000 Magnetized Ferrite,
250 platinum
25 Purgrowhatever
90 Gold
25 Chlorine
7 Tech modules
13 Sodium Nitrate
125 Emeril
1 Metal Plating, Hermetic Seal, Di-H Jelly
50 pure ferrite
3 micro processors
600 parafuckingwhatever
Listen here game half of these things are not even on this system what do you want from me
Ship's not even that good I could probably buy something equally shit for a tenth of the money I have right now in 0.00001% of the time
Hey so what happens if i transmit milestone data to nada?
Alright thx
do completing all the atlas interfaces and crafting the star seed actually do anything
other than revealing black holes on the map
GREAT! I login after a save and find I have the Atlas Path quest. I never visited an interface ro anything. 😦 Way to not start the quest properly!
not sure if this should go in #nms-questions or here, but after making the mind arc for the first traveller, the log page still has "craft a mind arc" as the next thing, but when i leave the menu it says to revisit the system i left artemis at. but due to the update the only portal locations i have are places i visited post-update. how do i get back to that system?
Wait, so... what does exactly happen at center? I get the wipe thing, but does that restart the main quests? Delete all known recipes? Etc.
you basically just start over with all the items in your inventory
you keep your ship too
So I do get to redo quests.
Yep. Story restarts.
Grr.
But you keep everything else. Just explore the next galaxy.
Plus side is that you get to choose what type of galaxy to create. Certain ones will have more of a certain planet type. I don't have the list offhand (work blocks sites)
I wonder how this works with multiplayer if I'm in a different galaxy entirely.
I'm curious as well.
I'll let someone else experiment lol my save is broken enough
does anyone know how to access the negative galaxies?
@visual mirage does it actually restart the story now? It didnt in atlas rises
But yeah, now that multiplayer is a thing, is it really advisable to leave Euclid?
Say you go 10 galaxies deep, you're going to find NOBDOY
Is there more to the story in NEXT than in Atlas rises? (Yes/No suffices, don't want to ruin it for me)
@granite glade that doesn't matter because you just join people.
So does is send me to their galaxy?
@hazy oxide
yeah, that is the new traveller log, 10 log entries
base terminal mission
and the one before is about "coming here to get away from everything" or something like that... is it referring to the simulation?
@granite glade yeah
@granite glade yep
Is it possible to get back to Eulcid if you've changed universes?
technically yes, but takes ages if you dont save edit
it loops around once you travel from galaxy 255
thats on you
how would I even do that?
then edit raw json at the top
and change realityIndex to 0 (means euclid)
once that is done, click the coordinate viewer and warp to your current system so it puts you inside your ship in the middle of space
otherwise you risk spawning outside your ship and dying
didn't want to ask this anywhere else but is there anything else to the atlas quest after going in the black hole?
