nms-expedition

[smoky beacon]

lol

[bitter plover]

How do you get them do something? I have pets on my normal save - Never seen the use of them until now...

[forest reef]

Any of y'all know why my expedition save won't convert to a normal one?

[indigo falcon]

after you claim the final expedition reward, it should immediately display the screen asking you (requiring you) to convert. what happened instead?

[forest reef]

It did it's thing, but no one on a normal save can join me.

[indigo falcon]

that sounds like a bug

[fringe agate]

Someone else was having the same issue

[indigo falcon]

are you able to join other people with expedition-converted saves?

and when you load into the game on that save, does it say it is normal mode with the usual icon now?

[forest reef]

Yes, it's normal. At least that's what's written.

[indigo falcon]

and joining other people who have also finished the expedition? or even people who have not yet?

just trying to get the parameters of the issue

[formal cairn]

Hey, idk if its me being stupid or something, but I cant seem to complete the first milestone of Log 2 of the expedition… the mission description says ‘Speak to the freighter commander to browse ship records’ yet when I do that and choose to access the ship’s logs, it just says ‘no new records to report’

Does anyone know if I’m doing something wrong because I’ve been stuck on it for ages now lol

[fringe agate]

The popup in game should explain, but you aren't in the right system yet for it

[bitter plover]

Are you in the right system? You have to travel to a specific system to unlock the logs

[jagged charm]

i need a bigger wall XD

[fringe agate]

That's a birb

[formal cairn]

Welp… I completely missed the pop up lol, but yeah thats it. Tyvm

[formal cairn]

That’s my problem, ty!

[bitter plover]

CAn someone tell me the planet R5 is on?

[fringe agate]

Pinned here #nms-expedition message

Madush

[bitter plover]

Thanks I realised adter I asked there was a probably a pinned item 🙂

[quartz zodiac]

Are the expedition systems "connected" to the main game ? Someone in the main game can show up there without playng the exp ?

[fringe agate]

Yes, you won't see them because no cross mode, but the universe is the same for everyone (aside from sentinel activity on some planets)

[quartz zodiac]

Cool thx

[elfin wyvern]

They rlly need to make these expeditions permanent

[solemn aspen]

I mean the point is that they arnt

[gloomy mural]

Anyone available to help me with hospitality? Tried it the other day but apparently it didn’t complete.

[acoustic current]

So I'm at the second rendezvous and want to someone to help me out with the hospitality milestone I'm on xbox can someone help me out by letting me on their ship

*freighter

[weak rock]

hello, i have a question.. is there a way to get previous expedition rewards if didnt participate? polestar is my 1st expedition

[fringe agate]

With a save editor, or if they re run them

[weak rock]

oh you can do that? never thought of that..

[ashen shore]

Also Im starting to notice a pattern

[jagged charm]

yeah but its not a straight wall tho

[ashen shore]

1 rectangular sticker followed by 2 smaller ones

Beachhead - Cart + Emergence
Exobiology - Blighted + Levy

[jagged charm]

people with OCD are getting nuts

[ashen shore]

I can kinda see that

[jagged charm]

looks nice

right (that's mod) for those who dont know

[gloomy light]

To finish chapter 1 of the expedition can I warp with my starship or does it have to be with the capital ship?

[ashen shore]

500 AI? I know it's a mod and late game item but still a bit too much

250 is the size of a whole silo?

[jagged charm]

500Ai is nothing

even on survival

plots what 5 of those extractors and 50 silos and come back next day and you have like 5+k

[jagged charm]

i also have this XD

[visual owl]

Hey

So I ran into a problem

[jagged charm]

ok?

[visual owl]

I started an expedition save

But I didn't finish the lore on my normal save

And now it seems to be stuck?

I mean, I can't move on the lore

And also it seems like I can't do the Shroud of Freedom mission either (I already did this on the normal save)

Is it maybe because I haven't finished the expedition?

[native bloom]

No the saves don't affect each other at all

[ashen shore]

[visual owl]

So the lore mission should've started pretty much from the beginning when I did the new expedition save?

Because I'm stuck at "The Space Anomaly" mission

I can't seem to talk to Polo or Nadia either

[ashen shore]

in the expedition save or normal save

[jagged charm]

its very nice

[visual owl]

in the expedition one

[ashen shore]

oh

you have to finish the expedition. First

[visual owl]

I see

thank you

[ashen shore]

np

[minor breach]

Your starship doesn’t have a hyperdrive

[mighty zealot]

how to get storm crystal? , i don't have glyph

[gloomy light]

Thx

[jagged charm]

visit activated planets

ie activated copper

[mighty zealot]

ok thanks

[junior shard]

how are you expected to get the cadmium freighter drive if it needs cadmium before getting to red stars? 😛

[jagged charm]

you dont get it

you dont even need it

[junior shard]

guess you'd need to buy the drives for the ship in the anomaly

[sick kelp]

@junior shard you can buy ship weapon upgrades of any type and dismantle and they'll give cadium or you can go to nexus and do missions and it will dump you into red/green/blue systems.

[minor breach]

You don’t need it

[sick kelp]

and they are not learnable at anomaly

[jagged charm]

like i said you dont even need to visit them

[sick kelp]

might not need it but like me they might want it

and i needed emeril for plants

[jagged charm]

well you're out of luck for this exp tho

[sick kelp]

and to increase your jump distance you need it

no i have it

it's semi ez to get once you know how

[jagged charm]

oh i know how

just did the whole exp without

[junior shard]

Well I just wanted to increase the distance yeah

[sick kelp]

then you could of told them instead of just saying sol

[junior shard]

I know I don't need to go there persay lol

[bitter plover]

Is there a near water system near R5? Need Crystal Sulphide...?

[jagged charm]

its like super short

[acoustic current]

Can anyone help me put with the last milestone in phase 2 can someone invite me in their group and let me on their freighter please

[sick kelp]

@acoustic current give me a minute to start it up and i'll help ya

[acoustic current]

You absolute legend just thought it would be easier to ask through here as the kids are to loud

[sick kelp]

@acoustic current check your messages

[minor breach]

There’s probably a water planet nearby check with the galaxy map

I’m not sure cause I had the stuff from building the nautilon

[sinful estuary]

I'm playing expedition 8. Somehow, I got way off the right path and can't come back on my own. I need to get to the place where Phase 4 starts. Can someone help me, please?

[ashen shore]

Couldn't find 8th frigate to buy, claimed Normandy instead, lmao

[sick kelp]

really wonder what is up with that cause i know there are tons that haven't seen almost any but i see tons =/

[ashen shore]

@sinful estuary I have the same problem

[sick kelp]

ok question, are you seeing freighters they just don't have the buy icon?

or are there just no ships warping in at all

[jagged stratus]

how are people setting up bases? I don't have the base computer blueprint, and I want to set up a crashed ship base

[sinful estuary]

Have you any idea how to fix it? I have done more than 30 jumps following the green line marked as "expedition path" to no avail. This is killing my will to play.

[ashen shore]

I have no idea how to fix it

I think it’s that the frieghter warp drive skips over it

Since the upgrade I think gives you longer distance so u wouldn’t be able to see the system

[sick kelp]

silly question, have you gone to station or use your ship teleport to just teleport back to a previous system to get back on track?

[ashen shore]

I can’t find the system on the map tho

[ashen shore]

The Hospitality milestone is optional, you don't need it to complete that phase

[fringe agate]

Teleport back to a station teleporter in one of the RDV systems

[ashen shore]

theres one in r5 i think

or that might have been my ||slingshot galaxy idk||

[gray tulip]

Anyone know what time of day frigate missions reset

[sick kelp]

@gray tulip what is your timezone

[sinful estuary]

I did this but I'm still lost. In the galaxy map, there is a green line marked as "expedition path". I did over 30 jumps along it but didn't get where I supposed to.

[bitter plover]

FOund one thanks - One jump on the route 🙂

[gray tulip]

EST

[sick kelp]

8pm

[gray tulip]

[jagged stratus]

you are simply really far away from the expedition

[ashen shore]

How tho

[jagged stratus]

did you visit someone's base?

[ashen shore]

I thought everybody starts at the same system do they not?

[fringe agate]

Yes

[sinful estuary]

I guess so. But what did I do to get back on track? Can't someone on the right path give me a hand?

[jagged stratus]

I think I am in an expedition system if you want to join my group

[sinful estuary]

I visited someone's freighter to get the Hospitality milestone. If I had known that it would kill the game for me, I'd never done it.

[jagged stratus]

N45C-GAFX-D2XPY

[sick kelp]

joining others shouldn't save you in that area of space

it should put you right back where you were before you joined them

[jagged stratus]

it does if you start warping away from it

[ashen shore]

Dang oijyod ll

[civic mesa]

I'm in the phase 4 rendezvous system

[sinful estuary]

How do I use this code? I'm a new player. This is my first expedition.

[sick kelp]

options > network > add friend code

[jagged stratus]

options -> network -> view friends list -> add friend

[sinful estuary]

You are where I need to go. Can I join you there somehow?

[civic mesa]

yes sure

[gentle pawn]

anyone willing to let me hop on their freighter quick?

[civic mesa]

I'm not sure how to join a group with you though. I'm not experienced at the multi-player aspect of this game

[sinful estuary]

Done.

[jagged stratus]

ok then join my group

[ashen shore]

@jagged stratus added u

[jagged stratus]

one you have added me go into the space anomaly and leave it

it will ask you which system you want to go to

sorry, once you join my group

[civic mesa]

I sent you my friend code in a private message

[ashen shore]

I can’t join ur group for some reason

[sinful estuary]

How do I do this? Sorry, I'm a total newbie.

[ashen shore]

Doesn’t give me the option

[sick kelp]

save your game, quit to main menu and select multiplayer then select their game then select your save profile

if they have network enabled it should show up on the list for you

[ashen shore]

K

Thx

[jagged stratus]

I am in Higare-Rigy, which should be somewhere along the expedition route

Also call in your frigate so I can come aboard please :3

[ashen shore]

K called in mine

The system doesn’t show up?

[jagged stratus]

you're in the same system as me alreadyt

you should be able to continue on

[ashen shore]

I need the 4th log

[jagged stratus]

select that mission from your log and it should be a few jumps away

this is one of the expedition systems

the correct system will have a special icon on the map

[ashen shore]

It doesn’t show 😦

[jagged stratus]

press escape then select expeditions

choose the 4th expedition

[sinful estuary]

I landed on the space station. My freighter is parked outside. Should I go on jumping from here? Should I leave multiplayer first? I fear my current position will not be saved. I got a message along those lines when I got off my ship.

[jagged stratus]

then click the rendevous step

[civic mesa]

@sinful estuary Are you ok now?

[jagged stratus]

start jumping

and visit a station in the enxt system

you should be able to leave multiplayer then, and that station will be in your visited systems history if your position doesn't get saves

[sinful estuary]

Not yet but there is another player helping me. Thank you anyway!

[civic mesa]

ok good luck. See ya later as I'm logging out of the game 🙂

[sinful estuary]

Should I leave multiplayer and reload before starting jumping again?

[jagged stratus]

no

jump once

and land in the station

[sinful estuary]

Got it! Will do it right now.

[sinful estuary]

Fingers crossed!

[jagged stratus]

another option to get back on track is to visit the "Storm Crystal planet for Warp Hypercore" base

[minor breach]

Or check the pins

[sinful estuary]

In the galaxy map, all names are strange. There is no system highlighted and no system with the name I need. I'm starting to lose hope!

[ashen shore]

Same

[jagged stratus]

do you want to jump into a room and I can walk you guys through it?

[ashen shore]

My expedition route has gone 3 different directions

[jagged stratus]

I can also start a new save at the very beginning for you

[ashen shore]

Why is oijyod II so hard to find

[sinful estuary]

That`s the name!

[ashen shore]

I know

[junior shard]

Yay found a base that marked a crashed ship to restore 😛

[ashen shore]

I’m trying to find it too

[jagged stratus]

let me see if I can find it in my history

[sinful estuary]

I don't want to bother you but on the other hand I have no idea what to do. I was enjoying the game imensely and all this makes me sad.

[jagged stratus]

you're not bothering me

[ashen shore]

I feel u

[sinful estuary]

I've played a lot of games and this is just bad design!

[ashen shore]

I don’t know why this system won’t show up

[sick kelp]

don't suppose it's easy for you to post a screen shot of your galaxy map

[jagged stratus]

did you select the step from the expedition menu?

[sinful estuary]

I think jump back all the way to the first system could be a good idea. I feel that continuing from here will lead me nowhere.

[ashen shore]

That’s what I did

And it gave me a different direction to go

[jagged stratus]

i will try find oijyod

[sinful estuary]

Yes, the correct mission/quest is marked in my log. A message shows in my lower right corner saying that I have to get to Olyiod to be able to read the ship's log.

[jagged stratus]

that's exactly what you need

in the galaxy map there should be a system with a gold icon next to it

[ashen shore]

That is my current galaxy map

[quartz zodiac]

Anyone wanna do the friends freightet thingie with me ?

[jagged stratus]

what do you see further along the route?

[sinful estuary]

I know. The only problem is the Olyiod is nowhere to be found. Why not let us search for name and plotting a route from there?

[sick kelp]

yea you're not that far off course

[ashen shore]

Nawaguch , ruitsk systems

And Sasove system I already went to

[sick kelp]

spin it so you can see the direction of the green line

[ashen shore]

Farthest I gone is kotanb- awa

[sick kelp]

i'm willing to bet it's just out of render range

[jagged stratus]

found oijyod in my breadcrumbs, heading there now

[ashen shore]

My next system is nikovi

Nikovo

[sinful estuary]

MIne is Ookawa-Kazo, along the green line.

[ashen shore]

I’m with luss

[sick kelp]

cause you're in a system right next to me

[ashen shore]

Is that u empty garden?

[jagged stratus]

rejoin my session, I am in oiyjod

[sinful estuary]

yes. In game name is Luss.

[gloomy light]

How many warps is the first chapter? Am I doing this wrong?

[ashen shore]

I’m joining

THANK YOU

[sinful estuary]

Thank god, I'm in Oijyod!

Is it safe to leave multiplayer now? How to save our position?

[sick kelp]

land in the space station

[ashen shore]

Omg

I just had to go farther with jumps

[sick kelp]

that way you can teleport to that station

[finite rover]

well, looks like I got a dream aerial at the very end.

[indigo falcon]

hello and once again this evening I am hosting visitors to my freighter for anyone who needs the Phase 2 optional milestone. If you are on Playstation, you will have to navigate the sending of PSN friend invite (not group invite), since I don't know about that. Other than that, for the next couple of hours, all are welcome!

[ashen shore]

There’s a base with a freebie ship

[finite rover]

aaaaaaand that's the end of the called by the stars mission.

[jagged stratus]

yoink that as you need it for the expo. leave your freighter in this system and you can teleport back to it

[jagged stratus]

all you need to do it to get into it, then get out, and leave on your working spaceship. you will then find the busted spaceship in your freighter hanger and can repair it there

[sinful estuary]

Do I need to interact with the teleporter in any way or just land on the station?

[ashen shore]

Free a class to selll

[jagged stratus]

just land

[jagged stratus]

repair it first, you need to for the expedition

[sick kelp]

think it's just land in the station, but interacting wouldn't hurt to be safe

[quartz zodiac]

Im on steam would i be able to visit ?

[sinful estuary]

Thank you very much for your help! I was at the point of giving up. People were not helping much on Reddit.

[indigo falcon]

yep, you ready to come now?

[ashen shore]

Um I found atlas particle crystal something

[jagged stratus]

np. also, to sell the ship:

1. build a teleporter on your frigate
2. get into the broken ship (in your frigate hangar)
3. teleport to a space station (from your frigate)
4. TRIPLE CHECK that the broken ship is with you

[ashen shore]

Just a bunch of carbon

[quartz zodiac]

Yeah im online and dismissed my freight

[ashen shore]

whats a good system for pirates?

[jagged stratus]

do missions in a lawless system

[ashen shore]

A pirate system

What’s the double yellow exotic base

[jagged stratus]

^ that's a lawless system

[ashen shore]

lol

I was wondering if any of the rendevouz systems has a good clock for pirates

[ashen shore]

also we have a command for that

[finite rover]

WAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOO! First expedition completed. :)

[lyric garnet]

Anyone got any idea why the map isn’t showing the galaxy for milestone 3?

[jagged stratus]

make sure you have the rendevous selected in the milestones menu

the game has a nasty habit of switching your mission automatically

[finite rover]

it really does :(

[lyric garnet]

Ya I have it selected and it shows me 4 Gladys to go through but doesn’t have one with the spot on it

Nvm I found it. It’s 797 light years away

And I have no good grind spots for the storm crystals

[ashen shore]

Alright Ill check my own pirate clocks

[lyric garnet]

I really need to visit someone else’s base to get the optional milestone done

[indigo falcon]

just use regular warp cells, they get the job done

[indigo falcon]

I'm hosting visits, see above. what platform are you?

[ashen shore]

just invite people in the nearby player list

[finite rover]

see pinned coords for them. alternatively hop-warp from R2 to 3. the 2nd last hop has an extreme planet with storms.

[ashen shore]

Well thank u burp

[lyric garnet]

@indigo falcon pc

[steady idol]

Anyone got a spare storm crystal lying about?

[sick kelp]

think i have a few, let me finish repairing this ship and can get it to ya

[steady idol]

o7 I'll dm you my friend code

[gloomy light]

I've warped 30 times on this expedition and still haven't finished the first chapter. How many warps is it? sily

[fringe agate]

Not that many

Like 5

[gloomy light]

Must be doing somethign wrong

How do I find this meeting point?

[finite rover]

whee! the red button pressed. :)

[fringe agate]

I,don't really know how to explain it other than follow the path. Clearly something went awry there though

[fringe agate]

Did you visit the station in the starting system ?

[gloomy light]

I presume so

[fringe agate]

Teleport back there

[gloomy light]

Any way to confirm?

Which is the starting system?

[fringe agate]

Go look at the teleporter list

Wazaki

Locations are pinned here

#nms-expedition message

[gloomy light]

Warping now friend. THank you Sir Gleam

Your Gleamness

[fringe agate]

You should be able to see exactly where you are going on the map - zoom out a touch

[gloomy light]

What should I do at first? Oh ok

[fringe agate]

Make sure the appropriate milestone is selected

[lyric garnet]

Best place in r2 to get storm crystals?

[gloomy light]

WTF it is like right there. I've been warping around

Thx. Weird

[fringe agate]

No problem

Visit stations in every RDV system

[gloomy light]

RDV?

[fringe agate]

These are places people found and posted

#nms-expedition message

[fringe agate]

Sorry, Rendevous

[gloomy light]

Thx

[hardy gulch]

anyone know where the closest outlaw system is to nitall (third rendevous system)?

[steady idol]

Penultimate task before completing the expedition wooo

[hardy gulch]

nvm found it

[indigo falcon]

visiting hours still on for people who need to complete the optional Phase 2 milestone. for abuot the next hour and a half.

[steady idol]

I did not know combat frigates got involved in combat with pirates

Thats impressive

[indigo falcon]

they do, no idea how effective they are

[amber bluff]

How do i check the pins of this channel?

[indigo falcon]

you on mobile?

[amber bluff]

Yes

[vagrant pendant]

Swipe right

[indigo falcon]

swipe to move messages screen to left. then you should see a screen with the pin icon among others, hit that.
you might be able to click on channel name at top to bring the pins and other icons screen to view too

[amber bluff]

I found it thanks

Tap the channel name also worked

[indigo falcon]

sweet

[steady idol]

Very enjoyable expedition this one, love having to use the freighter as the main means of transport and as a base for it all

[amber bluff]

So how to find an extinct civilization?

[hushed basin]

Is it possible to get a Capital ship skin, or an S class, as your starting freighter in the expedition? or is it always the same skin/class freighter?

[indigo falcon]

you will get some random C freighter

I don't know if it's always a system freighter or not

[hushed basin]

Damn

[indigo falcon]

now now let's not get greedy 😛

[hushed basin]

Well, since you don't actually claim it from a space battle, do you still get the 1 free freighter when you encounter one after a warp to a new system?

[steady idol]

Nope, not that I could see anyhow

[hushed basin]

Really? You have to pay for the first one you find and rescue from pirates?

[indigo falcon]

no because that's only if you do not yet have a freighter

you get a free freighter at the start of the game, them's the breaks 😛

[steady idol]

Well I never had to save one since I travelled in the freighter exclusively but the one I did find asked for cash to buy but by then it wasn't worth getting it

[indigo falcon]

yep, once you have one you trade that one in and pay the difference

[minor breach]

Well saving them is the only way I got the pirate missions done

[steady idol]

I did the pirate hunts from the anomaly

Two of em

[indigo falcon]

I did that for the pirates too, easy peasy. three warps, 6 dead pirates, rinse, repeat...

[minor breach]

I warped six times in my ship and that was that

I mean I had killed 2 earlier somehow but yeah they was it

[indigo falcon]

still hosting freighter visits in anyone needs that optional phase 2 milestone.

[hushed basin]

ahh. shame...

I was just gonna use that first freighter battle to hunt for my S class 😦

[cold fossil]

Will you still be on in like 15 min?

[gloomy light]

Once I get to the rendevous syustem how do I do the quest?

[glass solstice]

Go to the quest icon

Then whip out your binoculars

[somber tide]

Make sure you’ve highlighted the quest (sometimes deselects automatically), then follow the quest icon and use your scanner to pinpoint the exact location

[gloomy light]

Thx

[spare edge]

I finished the expedition yesterday and converted my save, played for a few hours on normal, but rn as I logged back in I got the same message of "expedition is completed, do you want to continue to normal?"
Is this normal or did I put my save in some wierd loop state?

[indigo falcon]

that seems broken, ugh

[spare edge]

anything I can do about it or just pray?

[hollow shore]

Can you provide us a screenshot? (if need be, use #nms-photomode-gallery)

[amber bluff]

Can you find shipwrecks to restore from the emergency signals from the trader?

[hollow shore]

@spare edge Curious if it is the exact same screen you first get, right after claiming completion reward. Might have to do with the Online Discovery Services being down too, as it requires to do a check, which after conversion seems odd though, but possibly a good indication of the issue

[hollow shore]

You can use Planetary Charts (distress signal) to find crashed ships and some other Points Of Interest

Not sure I understand your question correctly though.

[amber bluff]

Yea thats what I wanted. Shipwreck to repair for the milestone

[indigo falcon]

I think they are called "emergency" maps now at the cartographer, irritatingly enough

[lyric garnet]

Ok I feel dumb but can not figure out how to get the advanced mining laser or terrain manipulator

[indigo falcon]

but anyways, those, and there's a pin in here that describes how to do this for crashed freighters; apply the same method for crashed ships except that you must wait for two crashed ship markers to appear before checking

because one will be with an npc and one without, and you can't tell which is which

until you go there.

still hosting freighter visits for about an hour, if anyone needs that optional Phase 2 milestone.

[glass solstice]

Do you host freighter parties?

[amber bluff]

@lyric garnet can unlock those at the space anomaly

[indigo falcon]

I don't really have beverage services set up on this one, my apologies. there is a nice spot to take in the view though

[lyric garnet]

@amber bluff thx

[indigo falcon]

(I was jus tnot going to grind a bunch of salv data for that)

[glass solstice]

Oof yeah, understandable

[lyric garnet]

Now to sit here and wait for these storms to grind crystals

[amber bluff]

You got to be on a specific type of planet for storm crystals, the channel pins lists coornidates

[lyric garnet]

I’ve got an erupted planet in r3

[amber bluff]

Oh ok 👍

[indigo falcon]

oh does it have extreme weather? hrm

[lyric garnet]

Yes

[indigo falcon]

checking the discovery tab

[lyric garnet]

Fire wall

[indigo falcon]

storm crystals and no activated metals. weird

but if it works, ok!

[junior shard]

Can I visit someone's freighter? Kept that task for the last before the warp mission 😄

[indigo falcon]

platform please?

[junior shard]

PC / Steam sorry 🙂

[indigo falcon]

yep, ready now?

[junior shard]

Yes 🙂

[sick kelp]

i just got done farming some storm crystals if you still need

[indigo falcon]

well here I thought I'd been hosting in a system off the route and it turns out not to be true, lol. no matter

no text chat for consoles, gotta type here, heh

another visit concluded, still open for business!

[junior shard]

waaaiiiit

[glass solstice]

I’ll bring a cake with me the next time I visit lol

[junior shard]

so I completed the expedition, but completing it removed the expedition UI

how do I best show this now for the completion here? 😛

[hollow prism]

started expedition

[junior shard]

the rewards at the anomaly?

[novel cave]

wait polestar already started?

[indigo falcon]

the role is self assign

[glass solstice]

Yeah, you want the role or something?

[indigo falcon]

just go claim it in the roles channel

[junior shard]

I guess this works

Oh

[glass solstice]

I mean our guy here might want to brag

[junior shard]

so now it's self claim?

[glass solstice]

It is self assigned

[junior shard]

alright, usually we had to printscreen in here with the previous ones 😛

[indigo falcon]

get yer expedition eyes on!

[junior shard]

alright ty

[indigo falcon]

yeah, that changed for this one

[junior shard]

I wish we could name our saves

I'm losing track which save belonged to which expeditoin

[indigo falcon]

the worm one has the item that lets you pick up vile spawn so that's ok there, also have the living ship on that save

1-3, yeah, a problem maybe

[glass solstice]

Vile spawn?

[indigo falcon]

I might only have the normandy on 2 and not on 1, 3

[glass solstice]

What are they lol

[indigo falcon]

go do an infested world mission at the nexus and find out 😄

[minor mirage]

grats!

[ashen shore]

Sticker plz

[indigo falcon]

go get it yerself

[junior shard]

I regret not taking a printscreen at that screen lol

[indigo falcon]

the role is self assign this time!

[ashen shore]

??

Really?

[indigo falcon]

for real. go to the roles channel and grab it

yup

[ashen shore]

So we anarchy now

[indigo falcon]

no

we assume users will not want to advertise sometihng they didn't do

true for all the other roles after all, once the expd is over

[ashen shore]

Still I like my anarchy explanation better, thanks for the info though

[lyric garnet]

Well 13 crystals from 1 storm

[indigo falcon]

😄

I mean there's nothing wrong with a little anarchy but that would be #off-topic-bond-james-bond 😄

[ashen shore]

We had to get Storm Crystals?

[indigo falcon]

no, some people needed them, they didn't hoard the hypercore

and thus when they needed it for the singularity engine, welp

[lyric garnet]

Was I supposed to

[ashen shore]

Neither did I

You know what you can do?

[minor mirage]

although I got the hypercores from Nexus missions

[ashen shore]

Shoot random NPC pilots in space

You can get Hypercores from them once you destroy their ships

[indigo falcon]

I got storm crystals from sus packages (goods) but I didn't need them, also got a warp hypercore that way.

[glass solstice]

So we can now grab expedition roles from day one?

[indigo falcon]

oh and a few storm crystals from farming dihydrogen crystals

[glass solstice]

[indigo falcon]

for this expedition at any rate, yes

[hollow prism]

and the first rock i shoot, greeted by living rock... lol

[indigo falcon]

but if you didn't do it and are asking for help and wearing the role, I'm gonna side-eye ya

[glass solstice]

Oh well, Polestar was very easy anyway

[indigo falcon]

it was pretty straight forward, yeah

[ashen shore]

Yeah it was, but the story was really nice

The line about || gravity bringing us together ||

[brave ice]

It also must be a headache to assign for everyone. Mods have lives too. 😂

[ashen shore]

Using a || random space encounter asset for story ||

[glass solstice]

Surely you won’t look if they got roles like Rainbow Sky overriding it?

[ashen shore]

Big me likey

[gloomy light]

Anyone know where to find a technician?

[indigo falcon]

hmm about 15 more minutes for anyone who wants to pop by my freighter for that optional Phase 2 milestone!

[indigo falcon]

I'll look especially for you 😛 😄

[glass solstice]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So anyway, where can I find storm crystal?

[indigo falcon]

apparently in a world in the rendevous 3 system, Eginal W50, even though it's not got activated copper

[glass solstice]

Alright, gonna pick some up and distribute warp hypercores on the space anomaly

[blazing dove]

question for those who have completed the expeditiopn: do you ever get anything better than the starter freighter and f so what? (Trying to descide on exped or regular save )

[indigo falcon]

not sure how populated the anomaly is going to be right now, little issue with ods

during the normal course of it, no

you could buy one I guess

[gloomy light]

Can we do Freedom of the Seas without a technician?

[blazing dove]

ok so better using the play.refuse and save skum method? thanks

[indigo falcon]

er dreams of the deep you mean?

or some other thing?

[gloomy light]

yea

[indigo falcon]

yeah you can do it apparently

[gloomy light]

Freedom of the seas its called in this one

For me at least I dunno. Deploy a submarine

[indigo falcon]

oh

yeah you get the blueprint from another milestone

[glass solstice]

That’s dreams of the deep isn’t it?

[languid crater]

Good aftoon everyone how are you doing today?

[indigo falcon]

Drop Protocol - Construct an Orbital Exocraft Materializer

from that one you get the nautilon geobay blueprint

[gloomy light]

Once I made the geobay I need a technician to use it

Any idea how to snaggle one?

[indigo falcon]

no you don't

you just summon the nautilon right there from the geobay

[gloomy light]

Interesting

[indigo falcon]

I built no technician terminals nor ever looked for one

[gloomy light]

Maybe I was at wrong thinger. I'll look again thx

[ocean olive]

I have no friends to get the freighter optional milestone 😔

[gloomy light]

I don't have the chamber room plans but I did the quest to get them. Maybe if I log in and out or something

[indigo falcon]

platform?

[indigo falcon]

it's not a room, it's a blueprint, be on a planet

[ocean olive]

pc

[indigo falcon]

ready now?

[ocean olive]

yeah

[gloomy light]

Oh Bob Saggat

Thx

[sick kelp]

well looks like they are adding stairs back in guess i'll need to redo my freighter again

[ashen shore]

Now, expedition officially finished

[indigo falcon]

well I got the decal well before finishing, heh

[glass solstice]

Nice lol, you did 5 expeditions already?

[ashen shore]

I did all of them

Just the camera angle isn't wide enough to show them all

[glass solstice]

Oh nice

[indigo falcon]

8 expedtions, 8 decals, I gotta rearrange the crap at my one base again

[quartz zodiac]

Do all the expeditions get a repeat ?

[indigo falcon]

time for one more person to visit if they want that optional phase 2 milestone, any takers?

[indigo falcon]

we don't know yet

[quartz zodiac]

I a new player so i imissed them all

Apart from this one

[stray flame]

They did get a repeat in the past

[quartz zodiac]

It did happen for some right ?

[ashen shore]

At my home base, use wall lights scaled down to make the posters look like emiting light

[stray flame]

If you have a spot, sure

[indigo falcon]

platform please?

[stray flame]

PS5

[indigo falcon]

uh do you know how to do the friend invite from your side? (not the group invite, not needed)

well let's try it, you're going to get a psn menu popup at a point, hopefully it will make sense

[stray flame]

I think the way I did it in the past was via the nms friend code

[indigo falcon]

let's see

[glass solstice]

Wait you have to take an extra step on PS?

[gloomy light]

What is a good way to make it so my exosuit can handle bad weather and my health doesnt always go down?

[stray flame]

Just another menu

on the console side

[indigo falcon]

for non-cross play it's always an extra thing, I think xbox has something similar

[hushed oyster]

That's nice

[indigo falcon]

that concludes today's open house, glad folks could drop by!

[hushed oyster]

Always love some good lighting tricks

[glass solstice]

I love muh PC for that

[granite spindle]

Nearing the end of the Polestar expi, outside of timegated stuff ofc

how do I recruit squadrons?

[stray flame]

Head to the manage fleet part of the holotable on the freighter. You need nanites to unlock the slots

[quartz zodiac]

Thx again

[granite spindle]

Awesome. Got three slots now. Hopefully can find some NPCs soon.

[stray flame]

Just head to any space station

[ashen shore]

It's self assigned now in #roles

[indigo falcon]

self-assign in the roles channel!

[ashen shore]

Because anarchy

[indigo falcon]

(also, Read The Piiiinnnnssss 😛 😄 )

[bold umbra]

Oh that must be new, I thought that was only after it's all done

[indigo falcon]

it is new for this expedition

[granite spindle]

Alright, that hurdle out of the way. Just have to make it to the 5th point and do the tier 5 stuff while waiting on freighter missions.

This one was fun.

[indigo falcon]

love to hear it!

[bold umbra]

Nice change of pace this one, set up my last frigate missions last night.
Just had to debrief this morning and done.
☕

[gloomy light]

Crystal Sulphide is slippery. Difficult to locate

[ocean olive]

is it true that you can abort frigate missions and they still count?

[agile fossil]

Are freighters the same in systems for everyone? hardly ever see freighters to add to my fleet and wondering if other people are grabbing them up\

[ashen shore]

Not sure about aborting, but if the frigate reports damage and you recall it, it still counts

So you can send a frigate to higher difficulty missions and repairing it each time

[indigo falcon]

read-the-pins-yes-it's-true

( 😛 😄 )

[ashen shore]

Also, frigate rewards from previous expeditions work towards the "get 8 frigates" milestone

At least Normandy does

Couldn't find the last one so I slapped Normandy on top of my bullshit fleet lmao

[indigo falcon]

welp I'm dow here on Eginal 3 in the r3 system, waiting to see if it indeed is going to have storm crystals, if so I'll update my pin

oh yeah I brought over the normandy and the leviathan, not for that but for better chances of success on the missions

[ashen shore]

But seriously, if you need Warp Hypercores, piracy on NPC pilots is a possible way of getting them

[glass solstice]

I think Leviathan counts too

[ashen shore]

You have to deal with Sentinel forces later but it can reward a hypercore

[bold umbra]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FY41OheVsAAIq-0?format=jpg&name=large
This planet is named "STORM CRYSTALS" lol

[indigo falcon]

I don't need 'em, I"m done, heh

[bold umbra]

It's on the route, so if you're adding to pins it might be another useful one

[indigo falcon]

that one would get added to the general storm crystal pin

[glass solstice]

I don’t think Emissary role can pin though

[indigo falcon]

the one that's actually at a rendevous system, I'll add that directly to my question hmmm storm now

[ashen shore]

If you don't earn the next pin emote to your name after this expedition we gonna riot

[glass solstice]

That would be 2 months, pretty sure we all will forget about it before it even ends lol

[ashen shore]

[indigo falcon]

welp that was easy, 5 storm crystals and really slacking off

now have 7 storm crystals and 5 warp hypercores (which I probably won't even use,)

[glass solstice]

Do a giveaway lol

[indigo falcon]

pin updated

no giveaway needed, anyone can go there and grab as many as they want, it's literally at a rendevous sytem

hey @drifting niche FYI in R3 Kotanab-Awa the planet Eginal W50 has storm crystals! If you want to add that, I added it to the bit about storm crystals in my faq too

cc @wraith venture

[wraith venture]

nice! thanks for the heads up

[indigo falcon]

easy to miss because metal resource is listed as "copper", no activated copper, and yet.

nms logic strikes again!

[wraith venture]

[ashen shore]

Dont you dare post it Red

Though we anarchy now so I guess everything's allowed

[hollow prism]

phase 1 done, gonna continue the rest tomorrow 🙂

2.45 am

[jagged charm]

before you go send your frigs on missions

[hollow prism]

hmm need to get the blueprint first, also not really rushing

[viscid wedge]

I don't get the end of the expedition. I get technology from the refuge, build singularity drive and jump to random system? and then story just ends?

[jagged charm]

@fringe agate

[fringe agate]

Self assigned now

[indigo falcon]

self-assign the role!

[fringe agate]

I win

[jagged charm]

aw

[fringe agate]

!expeditionrole

[unkempt kraken]

to view, enable Link Preview

Expedition roles are self-assigned in #roles.

For other role information, please run !RoleHelp in #bot-spam or check #roles-information.

[fringe agate]

Boooom

[jagged charm]

pfff

[fringe agate]

Check the pins

[indigo falcon]

😄

[jagged charm]

so now anyone can get the title

[fringe agate]

#gottem

[jagged charm]

Q_Q

[fringe agate]

Yes

[grim summit]

tbf it was a hassle for the mods

[fringe agate]

Also yes

[indigo falcon]

if they want it. and anyone can call bs if someone with the title is asking how to do some milestone too 😛

[fringe agate]

Troo

[indigo falcon]

(which usually means they didn't understand what the roles were for)

[jagged charm]

there we goes

[fringe agate]

I don't have it yet

I did for a minute though, testing to make sure the react worked

[indigo falcon]

I do, since, although I didn't click that last end expd reward claim, the reward was still available at the qs vendor on another save, how about them apples

[viscid wedge]

and is singularity drive just a black hole jump to random location?

[hollow prism]

ok bed time

i will send the frig tomorrow 🙂 no rush

[indigo falcon]

to a fixed random location we guess

[jagged charm]

without ruining your tech

[fringe agate]

A blackhole, still wanna test

[jagged charm]

the EVA audio is nice now

[grim summit]

EVA?

[indigo falcon]

I got sucked into the stupid anomaly black hole in some system on the route and got dumped at somewhere else on the route, and it broke my tech, I did not even have the option to be like 'no no thank you black hole I don't actually want to go through', darn thing

[ashen shore]

Ah wait fuck I forgot to take a pic of me finishing the expedition

[indigo falcon]

self-assign-the-role 😄

also read-the-pins 😄 😄

[ashen shore]

Ah ye okay

[indigo falcon]

should I be hearing special music on the outside of my freighter when I'm walking around then?

[orchid cave]

Just waiting for my last three frigate missions to complete to finish this expedition (that and complete the singularity drive piece). Part of me thinks I should complete the frigate missions before completing the final milestone.

[barren creek]

You might as well gather the materials if you haven't already.

[orchid cave]

I did gather them already, and I just installed the singularity drive but I'm holding off at the moment from the final part of that milestone.

[indigo falcon]

whatever feels right to you

[neon oxide]

so I went to my non expedition save and talked to the captain and the second option was to activate the singularity engine... why would that be an option outside of the expedition?

[indigo falcon]

that seems like a goof-up

it would be nice if they plan to introduce it into the game generally but I don't expect it

[neon oxide]

ye I was confused, but am definitely keeping this expedition save after its over for the singularity engine

way cool

[orchid cave]

Maybe it will be added to the main game eventually. Like ground worms (forgot if they have a special name) on some infested worlds.

[tawdry zealot]

So I've only done the last two expeditions, Leviathan and now Endurance. Endurance felt SO quick and easy while Leviathan was the opposite. Where does Endurance fall in the scale of other expeditions? Easier, on par?

[orchid cave]

To me, overall, Endurance seems like one of the easier ones. I'm about to finish and I didn't use any of my twitch drops or rewards from previous expeditions like the Golden Vector.

[tawdry zealot]

Yeah, I didn't use any twitch drops either. I think it only took me 5:47 of play time to complete and that was with me getting sidetracked regularly.

well, I don't think, I know, that's the time on that save. lol

[civic mesa]

It's all bubbly - I just found this paradise planet just off the expedition path

[ashen shore]

The Polestar expedtion (that's it's name, while Endurance is the name of the update) was on par with most of previous expeditions

Notable more difficult cases being Leviathan and Cartographers

[civic mesa]

the only other expedition I've done is the Outlaw one

[ashen shore]

Cartographers had players stranded on a single planet, because of the unique starship technology which needed to be repaired

[elfin wyvern]

If u think that then u do not know the point

[tawdry zealot]

Gotcha. It was fun. Now I wait for the next one... Christmas? lol

[ashen shore]

And that required more advanced materials than the standard Metal Plating or Hermetic Seal

90% of that expedition was spend on single planet

Trying to get your ship repaired

[tawdry zealot]

wow, that's rough.

[elfin wyvern]

Do you guys think we will get another chance to complete the finished expeditions

Like we had before

[ashen shore]

Maybe, with the game coming to 3 new platforms maybe HG will be kind enough to let new players experience the previous expeditions

[elfin wyvern]

I hope so

[ashen shore]

But we have no concrete info on this matter, all wishful thinking

[elfin wyvern]

They should just make em permanent

There is no point in not to do that

[ashen shore]

That would kinda render the point of expeditions invalid

[elfin wyvern]

How?

[ashen shore]

Having to complete challenges within a specified time window

To earn unique rewards

[elfin wyvern]

I think of expeditions as little side questlines

[ashen shore]

That is a separate game mode like survival or permadeath, and just like you don't have to play those you don't have to partake in expeditions

[tawdry zealot]

I like the idea of unique rewards that you can't go back and get later. As long as they're not some super OP game changer. But when it's flavor or collector's item ships/weapons, I like the exclusivity.

[ashen shore]

Yup, exclusivity is the key factor here

[orchid cave]

I like them as periodic, seasonal content. I do hope they again offer folks the chance to replay previous expeditions perhaps once a year on a limited time scale like last year.

[jagged charm]

and 'challenge'

[ashen shore]

Maybe HG could repurpose expedition rewards for Twitch rewards

Watch way more hours for a more exclusive reward (compared to random ships / multitools)

They did that with the streamlined backpack

[jagged charm]

meh

i like how it is rn

[ashen shore]

Wondering why HG didn't make a unique multitool as a reward

3rd companion egg, really?

Capes I kinda understand, since those are new and limited, but companion again?

[feral trail]

What are the rewards for the expedition

[pale ridge]

from memory theres a purple freighter trail and at the end you get a child of helios pet, along with some posters

[feral trail]

So not anything tradeable

Or useful

[ashen shore]

https://www.nomanssky.com/2022/07/expedition-eight-polestar/

[weak trench]

finally

completed

the

expedition

[stoic rain]

i envy you, im on 1/8 fleet expeditions ;-;

[weak trench]

just

do small ones

[cobalt shore]

I hope the old expedition rewards will become available again as rewards for newer expeditions so people who missed out on older expeditions still have a chance to get those items.

[weak trench]

will probably take around 3 days

or less

[stoic rain]

pain

[cobalt shore]

Next to the new rewards off course.

[ashen shore]

The more frigates you have, the longer the missions

I got just the starting frigate and the longest mission I had was 1.5 hours

[stoic rain]

bruh and one mission is to get 8 frigates!!

[ashen shore]

All others were around 1 hour mark

[cobalt shore]

I always take the short 5 hour frigate missions for the expedition quest.

[stoic rain]

agony

[ashen shore]

Yes but you can do that later on

[stoic rain]

too late....

[ashen shore]

Or get frigates first and then send them on multiple missions

🤷‍♂️

[stoic rain]

just gotta pop back on every few hours, grind it out over next few days

[weak trench]

yes

[cobalt shore]

I'm at 6/8 frigate missions completed right now.

[shut flare]

I wonder, is there a way to get the emeril drive for Freighter, since I cant build it for my starship so I cant get the required emeril?

In the expedition?

[sick kelp]

yes

do nexus missions and sometimes it will dump you in the red/green/blue systems

[weak trench]

is there a way to make jelly fish bigger?

[ashen shore]

The final milestone rewards the different hyperdrive

[sick kelp]

if you're lucky enough to get dumped in a blue star system first just make that drive and fly to whatever you want

[ashen shore]

Maybe take it to egg sequencer on Space Anomaly?

[ashen shore]

But you still need the blueprint for that hyperdrive

[sick kelp]

he said for freighter

you can learn them

[ashen shore]

Yeah, research them or get the milestone

You dont have them from the start on the expedition

[shut flare]

Okay, thanks for tips

I mean, regular starship drives are blocked during the expedition.

[sick kelp]

for the most part yes. you can get the normal hyperdrive if you have one of the reward ships

i used one to farm a new freighter

[shut flare]

hm, what do you mean with reward ships?

[sick kelp]

gold vector or twitch ships

[shut flare]

Oh, I dont have any of those.

[ashen shore]

You could buy a new ship from NPC

Or repair a crashed ship, that is one of the milestones

[sick kelp]

none of the npc ships should be coming with hyperdrive

[ashen shore]

(Just the basic systems, don't have to repair all slots)

Really?

[sick kelp]

don't know about the repair ships

[shut flare]

I bought this one with hyperdrive pre-installed

[sick kelp]

nice so they do exist

think i've gone through like 100 without it

even my exotic didn't come with it 😦

[shut flare]

Bad luck I guess

Just one more question, can I somehow make stellar extractor put harvested resources in storage?

Or do I have to pick stuff one by one manually?

:[

[hazy abyss]

I wish our normal saves let us throw everything into the refiner at once instead of being limited.

[minor trench]

How long does the expedition take to finish?

[sick kelp]

nice just got 2 s class frigates from one group

[ashen shore]

What is the easiest way to do the optional milestone visit someone's freighter? I've never had multiplayer on before, do you just find one and drive into it?

[sick kelp]

If anyone interested system gave 2 S frigates and has an exotic

[limber shard]

Welp, almost done with the exp, I just need to get a crashed ship, get three more frigates, and wait for the last two expeditions to finish

Not a lot of special/limited loot to hoard this time around, but the Homeworld device is pretty cool c:

[hazy abyss]

I need 1 more expedition, but the only one left on my list is 28 hours.

[limber shard]

also I'm tempted to save edit the freighter singularity drive in my main save just for the sake of it

[hazy abyss]

Think I'll wait for that to refresh

[sick kelp]

@hazy abyss can just send out and recall, or go buy a random C frigate and send it out to get destroyed

[tired yacht]

Anyone need help completing "Hospitality"?

Ping me if you do, I've got some time on my hands

[ocean olive]

aborting immediately counts

I did it for almost all of my expeditions

[civic mesa]

I'm done with the expedition - 14.5 hours. That's better than Expedition 6 which took me over 46 hours because I kept getting side tracked as it was my first one. It was fun.

I wasn't racing to complete it though so it doesn't really matter how long it took.

[tired yacht]

Haha thats such a mood. Expedition 7 took me 25 hours cause I didnt really know what I was doing and just went with it

[civic mesa]

I skipped 7. I didn't like the sound of it. I watched a couple of streams and thought - nah this one is not for me.

I ended up with about 17 salvaged frigate modules I didn't use. I wish I could send those to my main save

[tired yacht]

permadeath meant nothing to me. I died once for Phase 1 and then just didnt die.

[gray tulip]

I really enjoyed the permadeath aspect

[devout pebble]

Anyone want to team up for the expedition? Haven’t started it yet.

[tired yacht]

I dont have any particular interest in teaming up but I can help you with one of the milestones on Phase 2 (requires you to visit another player's freighter)

[devout pebble]

Sweet thanks

[tired yacht]

Np. Let me know when you start/when you are ready and I'll dm you my friend code

[devout pebble]

Cool!

[distant fox]

yay I finally finished the expedition!

[tired yacht]

Good job!

[celest kernel]

Anyone want to help me with the phase 2 bonus? 🙂

[tired yacht]

Sure, I've got a multiplayer session open rn. I'll dm you my friend code.

[celest kernel]

thanks!

[supple pendant]

Ask on the Nexus. Someone will probably help.

[rain linden]

finally

[celest kernel]

I'm a little confused - you get the blueprint for taking your freighter to red systems... and it requires cadmium

[sleek shale]

Okay so, I made a mistake here. You can put Cadmium in the refiner with chromatic metal to get more cadmium. So IF I had remembered that I couldve used the small amount of cadmium to gave me to make more than enough. but I totally forgot I could do that so I processed it into chromatic metal..

Side note... anyone got some Cadmium?

[night wharf]

its the last one left too 😦

[pale ridge]

it wants you to use your ship to go the red system first as that upgrade doesnt need cadmium

[sleek shale]

no warp drives in Expedition

[rain linden]

i literally just finished with that and im so happy

[pale ridge]

now imagine that but the expedition is about to end

[pale ridge]

oh yeah..

[celest kernel]

yeah

[night wharf]

that would be the end of me 💀 l

[sleek shale]

well, It didnt give me any Emeril so I didnt get the green drive going, and i accidentally squandered my cadmium so I cant make enough for that. BUT! i did get the indium drive made!

[celest kernel]

I did get some activated cadmium at one point

but that doesn't help me

[sleek shale]

do you still have some?

Any?

Cadmium + Chromatic Metal = More Cadmium

Put them in your refiner together

[celest kernel]

activated cadmium doesn't work with that recipe 😦

[sleek shale]

Ahh, no regular cadmium?

[celest kernel]

not that I've seen

[sleek shale]

I thought it gave me some cadmium at some point...

it gave me INDIUM, surely it gave me some cadmium at some point...

[subtle meadow]

wait for 39 minutes, they will reset

[celest kernel]

if you have indium drive you can go to red stars, no?

[sleek shale]

Oh. I thought you needed one for every color..

[celest kernel]

what is with the refiner room eating my stuff?!

I literally had the display open and suddenly, gone

[sleek shale]

Oh. You are right! I can go to red stars! thank you!

[celest kernel]

I'm just removing this room.

[night wharf]

isnt it meant to reset once per day?

[sleek shale]

AND green stars! amazing! so in that case, do you want me to just give you some indium and you can make the Indium drive?

I have a big ol pile of indium

[celest kernel]

nah, it's ok

it's just weird that phase 1 gives you the plans to a module you can't build

[subtle meadow]

they will always reset at 00:00 UTC

[night wharf]

oh damn

ok

[sleek shale]

I feel like a couple times in this one I got stuff I couldnt use until I got a reward from a different milestone

[strong tulip]

Anyone available to join a quick group so I can knock out the Optional Milestone?

[slender glade]

If you've completed the expedition, is there a way to get a base computer?

[sleek shale]

You can convert it to a normal save I believe!

then it should become normal. and you can get hyperdrives etc

[slender glade]

That was stated in the patch notes but I don't see an option to do that yet. Where would that happen?

[sleek shale]

Hm, I presume in the same place you'd load it?

[slender glade]

Also, I don't actually want to convert it just yet since I'm going to do the optional milestone this weekend.

[sleek shale]

I completed mine but im trying to get the optional one done first

haha, saaame

[slender glade]

But moving on and getting a base set would be nice.

Hey Jeff just warning you! When you complete the last objective it automatically converts it to a normal save! So if you are playing with friends uh... save it!

[leaden nexus]

Anyone have any luck getting the base archives mission started after the save converts?

Oh. I think I need to progress the primary mission.

[tidal girder]

[finite rover]

damn. was going to say yes but I completed it. :(

[finite rover]

there are ppl when they're awake that are keeping the expedition open for this purpose. have patience. it shall happen. :)

[tidal girder]

I'm on steam link so asking in game with the virtual keyboard sucks lol. a guy left before i told them me please lol

[finite rover]

[undone epoch]

[finite rover]

I started a new game. give me your FCs and visit my brand new damaged freighter. :)

actually, I wont lose what I earnt the first time around doing this will I?

[undone epoch]

😅

[finite rover]

:)

I have no interest in doing it all /again/. :)

so yeah. if the answer to that is I wont then I'll start the game and play host. :)

I think that's fair :)

[undone epoch]

of course

I have no idea though

[finite rover]

looks like I wont. gonna finish doing my xbox quests so I can keep getting gamepass for free and then go back to nms.

[finite rover]

toss me your FC and I'll jump your way after @tidal girder

[wooden axle]

So im having a tough time finding salvaged frigate modules. I never really messed with the frigates before this exp so im lost

[finite rover]

you don't really need many. what the game provides by default should do. unless you blew them all then your options are: missions or raiding freighters in pirate areas.

basically you're counting on luck

[sick kelp]

umm, frigate expeditions, crashed freighter units, derelict freighters

and maybe nexus mission?

[wooden axle]

I see. Yea i spent them prematurely before i relized i need 12 for the warp

[sick kelp]

oh and freighter cargo pods

fly by their storage units and it'll say what's in them

[finite rover]

wanna toss me your FC? If I host the game hits 1FPS. xbox one x isn't THAT grunty. :)

hell. edge on it takes 2 minutes to start up.

[undone epoch]

found someone in game, ty though :)

people were ignoring me for ages in the chat but all of a sudden multiple people willing to help

[finite rover]

you finish the expedition

[finite rover]

no worries. :)

[finite rover]

ok. I can help ppl with Hospitality now.

[hollow prism]

@finite rover

[finite rover]

?

[hollow prism]

this =x

[finite rover]

you need?

[hollow prism]

yep

[finite rover]

1s

[drifting niche]

I have wares if anyone needs em

[finite rover]

Hehe. :-)

[devout nebula]

does anyone know how to use the home world repeater?

[lost raptor]

If you look at it in your inventory it should tell you a button to broadcast, then just pulse in space till it says anomaly detected

[agile fossil]

how does hospitality work, need to find someone in same sector?:

never grouped before heh

[devout nebula]

thanks a billion

[lost raptor]

Ya you can just group up with someone on their freighter and it should active as soon as your in their freighter. To do this you can ask in systems with people of anyone want to group with you and here too

And once you find someone in game it should tell you a button to press to invite to your group over their head

[agile fossil]

alrighty

ty!

[lost raptor]

@finite rover was helping a little bit ago not sure if they still are

[finite rover]

ok

[agile fossil]

sure, does it let me teleport to you in game? not sure how to invite

[finite rover]

do you need hospitality or are you providing?

[agile fossil]

need

[finite rover]

open your dms for a moment

[finite rover]

I r. :) Just occasionally AFK :)

[lost raptor]

No worries just knew it had been a few mins and didn’t want to assume 🙂

[woeful niche]

How do you self assign the Polestar role?

Doh! I did it without even knowing.

[shut arrow]

lol

got a question about the current expedition, is it just me being stupid, or can we not build bases?

[agile fossil]

we can't

[shut arrow]

ok, good, not just me lol

[agile fossil]

haha, i went through the same thing

[shut arrow]

finished it today, and now I kinda want to make it my main save because I have my freighter all nice and setup now

[agile fossil]

yeah, i am thinking the same thing, have all these nice freighter unlocks and fun to live off the freighter

[shut arrow]

not to mention all of the various expedition rewards that apply to it

xD

all of the massive efficiency boosts for its warp

[agile fossil]

from what i understand once you do the final phase 5 it will put you to normal save

[shut arrow]

hmmm

checks

[agile fossil]

hope that can still be in the same space as people in expeditition though, nice to see people coming in and out

[shut arrow]

yeah

I still need to do the silly "visit somebody else's freighter" thing, will do that tomorrow, part of why I came here

[finite rover]

can do it now if you've a few mins

I'm providing hospitality services atm. :)

[shut arrow]

welp, I can confirm even after you finish the expedition, still no base

[finite rover]

I got base.

[shut arrow]

also, the nearest planet I went to to check this is..... weird

first time I have seen that weather description lol
