You may have a look into your windows Event Viewer for more Info about that crash.
WIN+X will open that windows list, there start the Event Viewer and
expand Windows Logs and look under Application for warnings with a timestamp of that crash.

I finished the expedition but the quicksilver companion wants 1400 nanites for the last expedition reward while using a different character. Is this mandatory?

You can redeem the reward and check nanites later on, nothing will be deducted

[wanton delta]

Oh cool. Thanks

[mystic swan]

How much time give or take do I need to do E9?

[meager scroll]

Couple hours if you follow a guide

Max 1 day of playing if you take it nice and slow

[strong solar]

Hello, should I just sell these cakes, I got for a reward? Or are they used for something else?

[jagged sedge]

I'd just sell, they may not even have any benefit from eating them

[hollow gazelle]

Keep foods for pet coloring

[flat mulch]

I've never done an expedition before, do I need units for anything? I don't want to piss off the biological horrors if I don't need to

Larval cores sell for a lotta money, I just need to know if I need the money

nvm using my tried and true trick of "being smarter than these fuckign dogs" i got em all easily

[verbal shoal]

Are expeditions 4-8 going to recycle any time. I missed out on them,

[serene kettle]

Is the Expedition Speeder supposed to cost 1400 Nanites on your other saves? I thought once you got it in the Expedition it was free to your account.

[slate mountain]

No one knows if this is a bug or not

[upper tiger]

So I need to harvest star bulbs but I can’t and I don’t think I have the recipe for the hazmat gauntlet

[meager oyster]

I never needed much money. It was more about resources, mining, harvesting, etc. for me

[meager oyster]

I think that recipe was a phase reward.

[flat mulch]

Phase 2, Albumen Spawn. I know because I spent nanites on the recipe, saw that it was a reward, then immediately cried

[upper tiger]

Wdym

[meager oyster]

You should have gotten the blueprint as a reward for finishing a previous phase.

You just need to build it by assembling the parts

[upper tiger]

Oh ok

[strong solar]

You will need larval cores and sweetroot for cooking something, I forgot the exact details. You can use other things too. Like hypnotic eye and something else. Sorry not near game

[flat mulch]

How do I do coordinates?

I'm on the third planet now, gotta disable the sentinel tower so I don't get shot at every five seconds, how do I use the coordinates to get to the tower?

[strong solar]

Fly low to the planet in First Person (cockpit). Keep guessing and checking (use pulse engine to get closee) . Also use your scanner when you're getting really close.

I have not found another way. Maybe the planetary charts?

I had to refind it twice, it will turn back on if you stop playing the game. Make sure you're near it if you continue after quitting.

[flat mulch]

Thank you for the advice, I found it!

One other question, will we be able to keep anything from Utopia on our main characters? There's a creature I captured I absolutely love and I want to keep him

[strong solar]

I do not know that question, although I believe it's a separate save that gets turned into Normal. The only thing cross save is the rewards in the quicksilver terminal, I believe.

[ocean gorge]

Creature companions are not cross-save, no

Egg rewards such as from expeditions or Twitch rewards, or things you unlock with Quicksiliver, are cross-save compatible (you can get them from the QS vendor)

You can view planetary coordinates on a panel in the cockpit view, once you enter the atmosphere

[ocean gorge]

Hopefully this was answered already for you somewhere, but this is a bug. It doesn’t actually cost anything. I’ve done it several times now (on different saves) and while it says it costs nanites, I’ve observed it does indeed NOT deduct any

[flat mulch]

Okay but can I go to the utopia planet on my main and get another of the same species?

Like... He's just a bull. And bulls are one of my favourite animals.

[quasi copper]

You could go to the Utopia planets on other saves if you can find them, yes. You could also use NMSC (the No Man's Sky Companion) to copy the creature from one save into another, or clip it out and share with others.

[flat mulch]

FUCK FUCK FUCK

[balmy pagoda]

The Utopia was my first expedition in NMS on PS4. I just did the final phase and I hit X to claim all the rewards in each please. Bit it looks like the final reward for the sitter if I hit X to claim it will it open on this save?
I thought on our main save we can go to the quicksilver in the Anomaly and get it from there.

WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME THAT EXITING THE GAME WOULD BRING THE SENTINELS BACK

[quasi copper]

I think you have to claim it on this save to finish the expedition and be able to claim it on other saves. You can claim the speeder once on every save.

[flat mulch]

me reading the stranded guide
"pfff that's easy, there's no way it could happen to me"

me stuck in a hole with zero launch fuel while the sentinels won't despawn
"IT HAPPENED TO ME"

[quasi copper]

Do you have a save before that happened?

[ocean gorge]

It won’t matter. Whether you use a restore point or exit and reload the game, the sentinels will still be reactivated

[quasi copper]

Yeah, but he could maybe not be stranded.

[ocean gorge]

Oh that part, yeah maybe

[quasi copper]

Unfortunately, it seems like in MP you still can't deactivate them for other people?

[ocean gorge]

Or if they had enough stuff to make the nomad, they might could find another base to visit if there is one close by.

[flat mulch]

I don't have any paraffinium

They won't despawn even though they can't see me, I'm underground in a hole, why not?

[ocean gorge]

You can craft in any utopia base. If you have enough income, you can buy launch fuel from places that sell it, trade terminals. Uranium can be used to fuel the thrusters as well

[quasi copper]

As far as I know, they'll mill around forever. Dig out in a different direction?

[flat mulch]

Tried that, they followed me

[ocean gorge]

Yeah they’re extremely aggressive and persistent

So unless you can defeat 5 waves of them, it’s not a good place to be stuck😔

[quasi copper]

Maybe just come out and melee boost away, and they'll lose you again.

[flat mulch]

Oh shit I can just kill them?

[quasi copper]

Yeah, you can kill them if you can kill them.

[flat mulch]

I thought they were just infinite

[ocean gorge]

Yes, if you have good weapons and exosuit shields

In space they’re infinite

[flat mulch]

I killed a couple waves, let me get em off me then

[ocean gorge]

On ground they go thru 5 waves

[quasi copper]

If you get through five waves, they deactivate planet-wide (for you) -- unless you leave or reload the save.

[ocean gorge]

You can see the 5 red diamond things in the upper corner representing the waves

[quasi copper]

They do start having tougher types in later waves.

[ocean gorge]

There’s the dog, which is the least tough, Walker which is tougher, and the huge Walker which is toughest

[balmy pagoda]

Ok I'm loading my main save now and trying to get to the Atlas to see if the stuff is there where the twitch drops rewards were

[ocean gorge]

Twitch stuff you get from QS vendor

[quasi copper]

Should be if you've claimed it in your expedition save. It may claim you have to pay nanites, but it doesn't actually charge them.

[ocean gorge]

You won’t be charged nanites, even if it says that. I wasn’t

[flat mulch]

On wave 4 of 5 when I stopped being able to pick up the shield rechargers due to full inventory

I'm gonna destroy my salvaged glass so I can grab some more of em

OKAY I NEED COORDINATES TO THIS PLANET THIS IS GONNA BE MY MONEY FARM ON MY MAIN

[quasi copper]

LOL. Yeah, I tend to mine more on aggressive Sentinel worlds just for spite. But there are lots of them -- anyplace you beat the sentinels will be the same, and if you go away and come back, or reload, they'll be back again.

[flat mulch]

See, I'm an Epic Fortnite Gamer™️ and I have the skills to fuck em up

I just didn't know I was able to give them a black eye

[quasi copper]

I'm pretty sure you can find gravitino balls lying about on every aggressive Sentinel planet, and most systems seem to have at least one.

[flat mulch]

My starter system didn't have any, I've only ever found em in ancient ruins

[quasi copper]

Glyphs are in the pins, for what that's worth.

[flat mulch]

I still don't know how to use glyphs or portals, even after I've unlocked them

[quasi copper]

Probably too general a topic for this channel. I'll PM you.

[balmy pagoda]

I hope you're right lol, I'm oing to test now, it says to buy for 1,400 nanites and I have 4,300

Why the hell they tryna kill us with that caldera shit 😂

Had to quit my game to load back before dying lol

There's generally a break. You can see prior expedition release dates in a pin in this channel. Unless they're reruns which are done back to back, normally there's a break in between new ones.

Pin with dates

[flat mulch]

I hate the ship I started with in my expedition, it's a Hauler. I want something I can actually maneuver with, y'know? Specially since the planets are fulla mountains

[flat mulch]

HEL P HELP WHY ARE THERE GIANT WORMS

worms are vulnerable to bullets.

grah grah grah death death death

[flat mulch]

So I went and got the ||construction history||, will this change anything in the game?

[jagged sedge]

Buying that will complete that step in the quest list

[median ember]

What i found during my expedition ... Vs one that was given to me...lol

And somehow i just noticed i was dressed in red as my name colour.....as usual... @wraith venture

😑

[dusky whale]

I couldn't help myself either, I changed to a S Solar Ship, but heck, it feels good. Now I go to a red system just for Cadmium

Also, it that common ?

[ocean gorge]

Mudhuts

You find them in marsh/swampy planets

[jagged sedge]

That might be where the protogeks live

[wraith venture]

That's awesome, G! I'm jelly! I wish the game would dress me in red by default

[wraith venture]

Love that system. It's so pretty

Yes I like it too actually

[wraith venture]

I can't recall. I know you get nanites. I don't believe this expedition rewards QuickSilver but I'd have to check to confirm.

[neat osprey]

Then do what I did, buy a new ship. I hunted down crashed ships and scrapped them. I found other players bases who had the starship part store and I bought the hyperdrive and warped to a pirate system and bought a Solar Ship

[fervent horizon]

Six days?! Ah faceium 😆

[flat mulch]

It only took me ten hours to get through it, barely following the guide, you got time

If you put in two hours a day, you'll be able to get it before the end

[ionic glen]

I want the reward from this expedition, but i didn’t even start the game yet !! I don’t have the money for buying it right now and highly doubt i would make it in time even if i had the game.

😣

[flat mulch]

Expeditions recycle, my man. You'll have another shot eventually.

[ionic glen]

Not with same rewards i guess

Damn, this game is looking really good but it really has to be expensive, hein !!. Literally !! It cost 80$ for the game on steam and i’m in Canada

[flat mulch]

IIRC it still has the same rewards?

[ionic glen]

What is IIRC ?

[thick umbra]

NMS will always be on sale .. and if HG repeat expeditions you will get the same rewards .. Iirc (If I recall correct) 😉

[ionic glen]

Ok....

I can’t wait to get this game !

I can’t really figure it out why it’s that expensive. 80$ !

Expedition

[thick umbra]

maybe ... in the past HG did repeat older expeditions

[neat osprey]

What reward? The starship? Another player can give you their ship. It’s simple, since it’s an expedition reward, have someone start a new file or use an old expedition file. Get the starship and start a session with you. Have the other player TRADE a starship for the one you want. You can then buy the expedition starship off the NPC. This is the only way I know how to transfer starships between players

[median ember]

Yes

In 2022 there were 4...
Exobiology
Blighted
Leviathan
Polestar..
And finally round 2 (redux) of these with shorter time frame

to bad that we dont have an archive for such events 😉

[strong solar]

Because it's awesome now and everyone else bought it at that price, when it wasn't nearly as awesome... Some say terrible. Lol

But honestly it's usually on sale I think.

[wraith venture]

You can also wait for when there's a sale, usually before an update, when it's usually half off. Hello Games has re-run expeditions 1-8. So the likelihood of them running this one again is high.

Oops I think I used the wrong channel

[frosty wing]

tried my first expedition - this utopia thing

did well until the 3rd planet or so
this planet is worse than mc caves and cliffs - i always hated extreme hills so i have no intentions of upgrading my mc version

mc aside, this planet is just dangerous - to the point i now have to start again (if i even can) cause theres no way i will survive

1 - i tried to get to my next base but the ship needed me to land. i did. right in the middle of a gravitino ball field and i was attacked by sentinels immediately upon exiting

2 - discovered i cannot relaunch my starship due to no fuel, and i cannot make more without making a base

3 - i spent the next 1.5 hours making it to the next base site, only to then need 400 copper for chromatic material for the base computer

4 - the nearest copper is right next to my starship -_-

5 - i spend 30 minutes (now i have waypoints and not running blind) getting back to my ship and the copper (but there's less than 200 copper so i need another deposit)

5.5 - the entire time im being pursued by sentinels for my accidental approachment (not a word) of the gravitino balls

6 - i make it back to the build location as there was another copper deposit close to it but in the opposite direction

7 - there i save and am immediately hit by sentinels and a heat storm

8 - my jetpacking around instant death "extreme hills" of this planet has depleted my life support and i cannot recharge it - there goes any exploration or returning to my ship plus with the heat storm and no way to build a shelter i will die (not happened before so i dont know what that entails) plus the sentinel attack about to happen = no way forward

what is the point of these expeditions if they are impossible?
i get others have completed this and other ones, but seriously, how do i move forward in this one without restarting - now im 4 hours in with "nothing" to show for it?

[sinful meteor]

digging underground is self-refueling (silicate), protects you from storms, and discourages the sentinels from actively chasing you (until you bump into another one).

death probably won't cause you major problems, just tap your grave site for your items. might even recharge your life support.

[quasi copper]

For bad terrain, use an exocraft or ride a creature. Turn off sentinels at sentinel pillar, or, if you have combat skills, defeat five waves.

[sinful meteor]

speaking for myself going at it blind i had no sense of direction for the sentinel pillar, though i'm sure there are bases littered around it labeled "sentinel pillar btw". So I tunneled. I think most people found planet 3 annoying for how much it pushed sentinels on you.

exocraft on new planet requires rebuilding the exo pad (dismantle your previous planet's one if you remember to, for resources), i wasn't thinking ahead enough to do so, plus sentinels keep chasing people away from the bases they're building and going to air during sentinel activation is a death sentence unless you're fast and stay up only for brief periods. (aka, you know how sentinels work, which i guess many fresh people don't)

[quasi copper]

My first playthrough, there was a very convenient base. On my second, that base wasn't visible to me. I followed coordinates (very irritating process) to the pillar and dropped a Save Beacon on it.

[sinful meteor]

i don't recall an early story quest that actually walks you through the process of blowing up sentinel waves, visiting the pillar, and turning them off.

[quasi copper]

If you have the Pure Ferrite (and it's 1:1 from Ferrite Dust, so not hard to get), it may be worth it to drop a pre-fab module and slap a door on it, then do the rest of the building from inside that.

[quasi copper]

Yeah, another player told me how to do it. Could have been made more apparent.

[sinful meteor]

nearly everything else in this game has extensively laid out tutorial quests, i get that they want sentinels to be scary/annoying but they could've had something where early players get a temporary power boost or npc's and plow through them to observe the process.

expedition does give you weapon/shield upgrades before planet 3 at least, but it's all very implicit.

[quasi copper]

Yeah, I did the combat-oriented stuff and Caldera last, after I'd gotten all the shield upgrades it was going to give me for everything else.

[ocean gorge]

Using the tips in this channel helped me a lot. I’ve played the game quite a bit as well, and done the expedition reduxes over the holidays. I didn’t get stuck once, but there are some particulars this expedition that you need to prepare for. That’s where the pins are useful and I recommend reading them through in advance

[median ember]

ONE REALLY AWESOME ADVICE..... READ THE 📌

[median ember]

Also ... You can tp to other ppl bsse

We have two sentinal pillar marked where you can go and turn them off

[ocean gorge]

And always keep enough stuff to craft the nomad with you
Goes without saying, always have launch fuel and, if possible, some uranium with you too (never hurts)

The uranium can be your backup plan

[median ember]

If you're playing game for first time and jumped right into EXPEDITION maybe it wasn't a good idea but this one was pretty easy

[ocean gorge]

The nomad climbs steep inclines very easily, which is why having it helps a lot

[median ember]

Or...build a base on abandoned building or trade post

Buy launch fuel

Or uranium

Can also go to space station ... To buy those

[ocean gorge]

I feel like we’re talking to ourselves😅

[median ember]

I checked it has... uranium.... phosphorus.... dioxide.... ammonia all basic stuff 🤔

[median ember]

Yeah

😔

[ocean gorge]

It’s true though, most issues people have, reading the pins would’ve prevented, or solved

[median ember]

I didn't read pins either.... 🤣

Therefore

[wraith junco]

If you prepare and gather materials for bases and 5 base computers, expedition will go smooth

[median ember]

Or make a tp at every base

[sullen meteor]

it's good practice to avoid landing in the middle of nowhere. it might take you a while to find a landing pad, but most planets have some landmark with a landing pad and shelter

[median ember]

@wraith venture might kill me coz of this

[wraith junco]

And *

[median ember]

She keeps saying read the pins...and i do not

😂

[median ember]

And....you can link objectives and do them with ease

For example i made my first base here

Working landing pad and a trade terminal

[sullen meteor]

Also most of your problems stem from lack of preparation on earlier expedition worlds where the sentinels aren't hostile

[ocean gorge]

Also, you don’t have to build at the coordinates it gives you, just land there to get the objective complete. If you find somewhere else better to build, by all means, do so. Such as next to a minor settlement or trade post or whatever that has a free landing pad

[median ember]

Exactly

And when you get suit expansion...enabling super slots first is MOST SMARTEST THING TO DO

Like i did

[sullen meteor]

Also if you land on a trade hub or planetary archive, you're so high up off the ground that the sentinels will struggle to find you let alone attack you

[median ember]

Ye

[sullen meteor]

so you can easily fight them and disable them that way

[median ember]

I enabled my super slots in first suit expansion reward

So rest was easy

And i was fortunate enough to get

So i ditched the hauler ... And used my exotic

[quasi copper]

I went to those coordinates and found it, but it had an owner who just wanted a metal plate. Then he flew off with it. cries

[median ember]

Took one entire day to fix it

[median ember]

Was your mp off?

[quasi copper]

Yeah. Only use MP if I'm meeting someone for something.

[median ember]

Hmmm strange

[quasi copper]

My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined. : )

[median ember]

Did you start EXPEDITION in mp...or someone might have joined yoi

[quasi copper]

Definitely didn't start in MP. It is a mystery.

[median ember]

Hmmm....was your ods online...

[quasi copper]

Hm. No idea at this point.

[median ember]

I was offline when i posted yhat

I mean my ods was off too

Well ... Did you do the expedition successfully?

[quasi copper]

Pretty much. I haven't finished it, but it's just waiting for me to claim the last thing. That way I can pop in and take launch fuel to someone or whatever.

Make sure to claim before end time

How do you find pillars without cords? Like who found the cords for planet 3 and how?

[quasi copper]

No problem there; I did finish it on my first playthrough. Then discovered I couldn't go back and do stuff, so I started a new one.

[median ember]

One was found by someone...another was found by me

[thick umbra]

And my missions coordinates were direct next to a pillar 🙂

[median ember]

@strong solar

[quasi copper]

If you beat 5 waves, you get a pillar location, at least sometimes. And I think you can get a map item sometimes from buried salvage and the like.

[strong solar]

You just randomly upon them / go looking for them? No plantary charts?

Ohhh I was unaware of that!

[median ember]

I used my normal save to find one before hand and then played expedition to save myself the trouble 🤣

I used map in normal save and used same pillar in expedition save

[strong solar]

I am done with the expedition... Just curious for future reference.

[strong solar]

Big Brain!

You used glyphs to find the expedition system?

[median ember]

Well you get boundary maps from containers or glass they drop or defeat all waves and you find one

Mark it for future visits

[quasi copper]

I've been tempted to put a base on it. Not sure whether that would help people or be in the way.

[median ember]

I joined someone asking for help in transfer my stuff....and they had just completed expedition

So it got marked in my discovery as well

So i thought of pre planning

[median ember]

Mine helped couple ppl but since list is getting updated everyday mine got dropped

[quasi copper]

I might have been one of them, the first time. Really appreciate people who find pillars and/or put up useful bases.

I got confused with all the bases and waypoints honestly. There was way to much on my HUD

[thick umbra]

thats why I disable MP

[strong solar]

Had all MP disabled

[thick umbra]

On my last speed run I did just ignore them and run/jetpack away .. never did fight them 🙂

[quasi copper]

I usually run away, because five waves of them take too long. Or use a pillar in the first place.

[thick umbra]

right you can simply run away from them

[strong solar]

Could be why I never found an actual base, just the waypoints from ODS

[quasi copper]

Even with MP off, you should be able to find other players' bases. I didn't find as many in this expedition as usual, though.

Hmm weird, maybe I didn't look hard enough lol

[quasi copper]

Maybe, but they were pretty thin on the ground.

[strong solar]

So where do I go to get the cool expedition icon for discord? It was my first one.

[silent radish]

i forgor to get on nms to finish expedition lmao

continuing now

[quasi copper]

Is it night there?

[silent radish]

not loaded in yet

i mean

[quasi copper]

I seem to recall someone said they're a daytime species.

[silent radish]

the entire time i've been on the planet

nothing airborne has spawned

not a single damn bird

day or night

i havent seen a single one

[quasi copper]

Hopefully your luck will improve, then.

[silent radish]

yeah

also i remember the one other thing i needed to do required taking off

which kills my game now

just took off

i am motionless in the sky

[strong solar]

My issues were the 3 underwater creatures, even looking all over the first planet.

[silent radish]

flight controls do not respond

it is as last time

i physically cannot complete the expedition

and still no birds

[strong solar]

Sounds like questions for help channel? Maybe restart the expedition. You still have time to finish a new save

[silent radish]

there's 4 days left

i cannot do it in 4 days

[strong solar]

Okay

[silent radish]

oh maybe i summon my ship elsewhere

[quasi copper]

Worth a try, if you have launch fuel.

[silent radish]

still not sure what to do about the birds

last time i played i roamed half the planet

damn interlopers drove them to extinction

[quasi copper]

First time, I just looked up and there were birds. Didn't even realize they might be a problem. Second time, it took a little while, but I ran around, explored a cool base, and looked up occasionally. There were birds before I really got sick of it. But other people have had trouble.

[silent radish]

ok i am airborne

gonna warp to the nearest system and back

[thick umbra]

Warp to a system in expedition ? Why ?

[silent radish]

and then pray to the sky gods for some god damn birds

that's the last objective

[thick umbra]

yeah ok .. but you need the animals on another planet .. or ?

[silent radish]

no

there's an objective just to go to another system

i got there

[thick umbra]

the last mission Phase 5 is to warp to a planet and get your Speeder

[silent radish]

i am returning to look for the bird

i finished the objective to go to warp, to find two objectives that i've done are no longer completed

[quasi copper]

That's really unfortunate. Which ones?

[silent radish]

the one where you look for a gas hotspot

and

the one where you scan animals on the last planet

i scanned all but one

they are no longer done

[quasi copper]

Maybe you'll find the creatures, including the bird, while looking for the hotspot. Good luck.

[silent radish]

it's gone back to 5/6

i can only imagine how cancerous this would be if i had multiplayer turned on

hotspot found

i have 4 days to find a possibly nonexistent bird

[quasi copper]

Take a screenshot with current progress -- if you lose that milestone again, you can at least file it with a bug report.

[silent radish]

maybe there's something in my settings fucking it up

[quasi copper]

Got creature mods?

[silent radish]

i am on xbox

[thick umbra]

Patience is everything.. to find that shy bird 🙂

[silent radish]

holy crap i can set it to use left hand for multitool?

i'm going to fly halfway across the planet in hopes of finding the damn bird

what's it called btw

oh

setting it to left hand puts my character on the right side of my screen

oh that's jarring

THE BIRD

THE BIRD

I FOUND THE FUCKING BIRD

FINALLY

I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR WEEKS

[quasi copper]

Frabjous day!

[silent radish]

HOLY FUCK

[silent radish]

oh damn

it didnt even get renamed

how sad

[quasi copper]

Aw. Yeah, whoever found it must not have known of the epic search it would become for some people.

[silent radish]

my god the speeder looks amazing

ok this save can go away now

[quasi copper]

Congratulations!

[silent radish]

now begins the long process of moving my modules over from my old primary ship on my main save

lmaooo

i forgot my ship was called "Schiesse"

damn it

foiled again

i am trapped in the entrance to the anomaly

i must restart

[quasi copper]

Well, I see why you named the ship that, then. Probably take that over to one of the other channels, though.

aye

[vagrant wind]

The 2nd bird is a bitch to find. I had to reload twice to find it

[ashen shore]

When's the next expedition anyone know?

[latent acorn]

probably whenever the next major update is, they tend to coincide

[eternal skiff]

You guys think I can start the expedition rn, and finish before it ends in less than a week?

[quasi copper]

Yes. People have speedrun it in just over an hour. Read the pins for best efficiency.

[south marlin]

I literally copied a speedrun video and it took me only like 50% longer than them at ~2 hours. lol

[frosty wing]

way too much info to have read at 4am - but i did skip through it all but didnt see most (if any) of the really important stuff unfortunately

i always check pinned messages and faqs before seeking help online - or try to as my search terms are never what have been used previously - i am no longer the walking thesaurus i used to be due to a mild mental break down several years ago. if the search terms do not show up i cant find the answer i need mostly due to someone using a different same meaning word

i had a quick read through the pins here before starting my first expedition (seemed to be the smart thing to do) and seems the main reason i wasnt able to craft before heading to next planet was being smashed by sentinels on planet 2 and flew away to escape them and pulse to next planet (i had used a map to find something or other and the sentinels didnt like that)

i didnt know i could delete stuff i had built and recycle the materials, so thats handy

i have 50 hours or so game time (i have been holding off of expeditions) but this was sporadic, but have clocked quite a few hours in this latest continuation of play now i can auto target pirates and sentinels, i always had to out run them

sentinels never seem to stop after 5 waves - or the 5th wave doesnt end, never has for me

sentinel pillars? never heard of them before

[frosty wing]

as stated i was chased off those worlds due to sentinel attacks + didnt know i could recycle buildings

i had intneded to make more fuel and such before leaving but didnt have any choice

[frosty wing]

thats good to know

[quasi copper]

In space, they don't end; on planets, they should. However, I believe there is a Sentinel type that summons other Sentinels, so that can prolong things.

[frosty wing]

ah - i cannot play 3rd party shooters - so awkward, so i always head to space due to the auto targeting - but it didnt end as i was told

i used to be really good at halo 3 - my friends and i played 1 vs 3 where everyone versed me - i always won

but all shooters (not that i play them much these days, boring as hell) since halo arent so easy to play and i struggle with that aspect of any game as a result of halo's game mechanics being so good (just in my opinion)

[cinder nimbus]

protip

[quasi copper]

I'd advise running for a space station in space or using the terrain manipulator to hide underground on planet. In this expedition, anywhere but planet 3 (New Sesto), they'll give up and forget about you after a while. "Sentinel Force Deactivated," it should say on-sceen when they've forgotten you.

[cinder nimbus]

Minotaur exocraft trivialises sentinels

but this is expedition

😭

[quasi copper]

On planet 3, they'll still forget about you, but as soon as one of them spots you again, they're all over you again.

[frosty wing]

i noticed - im stranded and about to die from sentinels and a heat storm (from jetpacking around and consuming my life support or whatever its called)

havent died yet as far as i remember

[quasi copper]

Which planet are you on?

[frosty wing]

the extreme hills biome one

i landed for the coords for the base, wasnt the coords for the base
it was a field of gravitino balls
then sentinels came for me
then i found i had no ship fuel (i was chased by sentinels from the first two planets before crafting more)
and had to run from them to the base coords for about 2 hours

i guess i just have to let myself die first (i was at like 5-10% health from the mountain climbing), then regroup and come up with another plan

[quasi copper]

If you can do multi-player, I can bring you some launch fuel.

[frosty wing]

building at another base is a good start
could get my exocraft back - i heard they are good at steep hills

i wouldnt know the first thing about nms multiplayer - other than others seem to come and go

i tried to do a weekend mission for quicksilver, but someone else joined my party and took the mission from me, explained nothing and i didnt get any quicksilver

my main issues with this planet is the rarity of copper for a base computer

if i had a base i can build
now i know i can build at other's bases - not sure how long it will take to find one though

[quasi copper]

If you do find copper, you know you can reduce your terrain manipulator area of effect to get more stuff out of each deposit?

[frosty wing]

never heard of that

[quasi copper]

If you're on PC, you can use the 'r' key to reduce the area. It makes it take a long time and you have to recharge a few times on larger deposits, but you get more per deposit, which is good when it's the only one you've found in an hour.

[frosty wing]

r huh? will try that - theres only one more deposit in scan range
the closest one was right back near my starship -_-
got there only got 190 odd out of the 400 needed to start building
just managed to get back to the building site and save when was found by sentinels again + that heat storm

will try that, if i can find that new deposit! thanks

[finite rover]

get the pulse spitter (I think) and enjoy spray and pray. I suck at shooters and it works for me. combat helmet also helps you keep aim steady and tight.

[frosty wing]

I got the combat visor, but didn't know how to access it

Pulse splitter huh? I'll keep that in mind thanks as well

[finite rover]

you select it with the same button you select different types of terrain manipulation when you have a weapon selected

I think it's LB to use the secondary weapon on xbox. no idea on PC. you hold it down as you aim and it helps kill recoil.

[frosty wing]

Ah its a secondary weapon then it sounds like

I've been using personal force field or cloaking device

[finite rover]

yeah. it takes that spot.

[median ember]

Imo cloaking device is better than combat scope or force feild

[median ember]

I have never found any use of other two

[frosty wing]

i keep forgetting i have all of them installed - so dont use any of them, not really

[median ember]

Well cloaking is just like Harry Potter cloak

Good to avoid sentinal

Combat scope is good in case you get in tight situation and find it hard to aim

Sheild...is okay...but it drains your life anyway

[frosty wing]

depletes so fast though - only thing i dont like about it

[median ember]

So you losing life one way or othee

[frosty wing]

*the cloak that is

[median ember]

Well good for getting behind sentinal.....and getting slightly away.....

[frosty wing]

seems like combat scope it is then
and i can uninstall at least one of the other two

[median ember]

Well it's personal preferences

[frosty wing]

certainly dont need all three

can you quick swap them like the primary - without going into settings?

seems to be the only downside of the secondary weapon

[median ember]

I think you can...

But i have been playing with one weapons soo long i have forgotten the command

😂

I like my boltcaster and scatter blaster ... Hate it they nefed the sound

Yes...you can but i personally prefer cloaking device

[finite rover]

it's nice for when you just don't want to bother with senties. scope is good for when you do. have both and have the best of both worlds.

[frosty wing]

omg omg omg - i think i will survive now!

1 - thanks for the tip about hiding in a cave in the side of the mountain (very vanilla mc early game - not only did i survive, it also gave me silica to recharge something i keep forgetting)

2 - thanks for the tip about the roamer exocraft (not only did it scale these bloody cliffs, but i could build the summoning platform without a base - ill remember that)

3 - thanks for the tip about crafting in anothers base (i didnt get there - closest was an hour away - but in going there i found enough copper - about 1200 or so)

4 - thanks for the tip about building bases near trade stations (not only did i find one on my way back to my ship, but it also sold starship launch fuel and had landing platforms that could recall my starship without it needing launch fuel like before and my starship has the pure ferrite i need to build my base computer so i dont need to find more!)

5 - thanks for the tip that i do not need to build where they say - this trade post will suit my purposes fine

[meager scroll]

Sounds like winning

Keep it up!

[finite rover]

nice that you're getting it together. :)

[solemn badge]

I heard the station in utopia is different.

like the spacestation.

[fringe agate]

It's an abandoned station, so if you haven't seen that before go check it out

[solemn badge]

is it like a normal abandoned one?

[fringe agate]

Yeah

[solemn badge]

they also said it will turn normal afterwards.

[fringe agate]

I didn't go back so I can't verify that

Finished, claimed last reward and deleted

[solemn badge]

if you finish can you still be there?

forever?

@fringe agate I also have a leviathan mission save still but is it like possible to see fly by living frigates still?

[fringe agate]

I haven't seen any besides in the Expedition

[solemn badge]

what about mission 8 what was there?

[fringe agate]

The tech

That drive for the freighter, the Singularity drive or w/e it was

[solemn badge]

like special in the system

[fringe agate]

Nothing

[solemn badge]

also is it tradeable?

[fringe agate]

I don't believe so, but haven't tried it myself

[solemn badge]

what does it do?

[fringe agate]

It acts like a blackhole

[meager scroll]

We can't trade packaged tech modules, no matter what's in them

[fringe agate]

Sends you zooming to a random yellow

[solemn badge]

wow useless

[fringe agate]

Fun for explorers

[solemn badge]

also what is special exept fly by leviathans in leviathan?

@fringe agate

[meager scroll]

It had rouge-like game mechanics, where dying would reset your progress (mostly)

[fringe agate]

The Leviathan itself as well

[meager scroll]

Memory Fragments made their way to the regular game modes

Somnal Dust I think as well?

No it was Cursed Dust from exp4, my bad

[fringe agate]

Yeah

[solemn badge]

can you go photo mode get location travel on main save and use anomaly detector to get it?

the leviathan

[fringe agate]

No

That system has its own living frigate outside of the expedition

[solemn badge]

for real?

also what is the leviathan on expedition?

is it special besides class?

[fringe agate]

Not really, it's a unique frigate - but doesn't have any special abilities I'm aware of - but then I don't run frigate expeditions so I didn't pay much attention to anything besides the looks

[solemn badge]

But is it like uniqe or is there the possibility that any system has exactly it?

[fringe agate]

It's unique

[solemn badge]

but can you get it now?

[meager scroll]

Nope

The exp7 save gets coverted to Survival mode

You can't get it anymore

You needed to finish the original expedition run or it's redux in December (?)

[fringe agate]

Only with a save editor - or if winders Consumerism mod allows for purchasing that too

[solemn badge]

Has the levi. got a special model?

[meager scroll]

No idea, Im not keen on living frigates

But nothing stops you from getting any living frigate, upgrading it / feeding it and calling it a Leviathan

[solemn badge]

Is leviathan bigger?

@fringe agate

[fringe agate]

Nah, or at least it doesn't seem like it is

[solemn badge]

can you still see the levi in space?

[fringe agate]

When you summon in your fleet? Yes

If you mean just going back to that system, no

[solemn badge]

no like in the expedition system.

oh

[solemn badge]

can you summon single frigates?

[fringe agate]

Nope, whole fleet comes

[solemn badge]

are you able to summon the fleet without freighter?

[fringe agate]

No

[solemn badge]

darn it

Also I can't find my dream living frigate.

Mine just doesn't look good:

It is like this

screw that 3rd planet! done and dusted

[finite rover]

=)

[sullen meteor]

Not sure I understand, I don't think the first world even has any sentinels?

[sullen meteor]

Also what in the world is a "3rd party shooter" lol. Do you mean a third person shooter? If so... you know you can play NMS in first person right?

there's a toggle for it in the quick menu and you can set a keybind to it there.

[meager scroll]

Yeah, Quick Menu has some nice stuff aside from summoning ship and pets

I recommend taking some time to get familiar with it

And yes, being able to set keybinds is great

[frosty wing]

i went somewhere as part of a reward and they came for me - i actually had a second location i wanted to go to, but got chased away at the first location

[sullen meteor]

🤔

and then they continued chasing you for the next two planets? lol

[frosty wing]

yes first person shooter - thats how long its been since i played halo or any other shooter - the whole idea of running around and shooting stuff got really old for me

as for nms in fps... never heard of that - i am aware others say they can 3rd person their starships, but i havent figured out how to

[frosty wing]

no, once in space, the harassed me, but i managed to outrun them

then landed on planet 2 and all was ok - mostly

[sullen meteor]

you can be in first person or third person both on-foot and when flying

https://www.gamerguides.com/assets/media/17/259/quickmenu2.jpg its in this submenu

"utilities"

https://wpguru.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/image-3.png

havent checked the other options there though tbh

[meager scroll]

Yeah, highly recommended to take some time to check the Quick Menu options

[sullen meteor]

the first thing I always do when starting any new game is figure out and customize the controls (which is why I always recommend that new players should start NMS in creative mode)

[meager scroll]

Both on-foot and when in starship

I would also say in exocrafts as well, those have some nice options in Quick Menu

But I dont know if you have one to check now

[frosty wing]

yeah im at 111 hours it seems (didnt realise i had clocked an extra 60 odd hours from last checked)

but most of that was sporadic as in i didnt play very long
took forever to get my head around the control setup
and again everytime i tried to play months and years in between

[wintry robin]

i just started the expedition, will i be able to finish it in these last 3 days or should i give up the tought?

[frosty wing]

ive heard it can only take 7-12 hours

i had a hell of a time as i couldnt take a heap of copper and launch fuel with me to each planet - reasons

im good now:

• doubled back to the previous 2 planets
• completed last available missions there
• salvaged some stuff like the portable tech and exocraft platform
  (didnt know you can craft that exoplat without a base, so thats cool)
• then went on a massive hunt for copper and sodium

in a much better position

[quick swan]

Sorry I am new but how do I participate in this

[fringe agate]

Start a new save and select Expedition as the mode.

[quick swan]

Ohh got it thanks 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

And then I report my results in here or what

[fringe agate]

No need to report, but you can chat about it and ask expedition questions, etc

Pins here have a bunch of nice tips as well

[wanton frigate]

Read the pins, plan ahead and don't waste time on non-essentials, you'll be done in a couple of hours. Key tips are to carry a buttload of copper with you at all times (bases are expensive to build and you need to build 5 of them), always have spare launch fuel in your pocket and where possible do any of the Phase 3 tasks you can on another planet that's less annoying. What are you sitting there reading this for? Get moving! You think that damned bird is going to scan itself? (you'll know the bird I mean when you see it. Or rather, don't see it and wander around for 3 days straight scanning the sky for it)

[quick swan]

Nice thanks for the help❤️

[fringe agate]

No problem

[woeful niche]

The Phase 3 rendezvous location (Outpost Gamma) is at +37.84, +56.40.
There is a sentinel pillar at +37.69, +57.36.
This is only approximately 1,400u due east. It is less than a 20 second flight in your starship, about a minute in a Nomad.

[quasi copper]

That's a very useful way of putting that. Thanks.

[frosty wing]

wow - took about 8 hours

those 5 tips were the tipping point! thank you all

[crisp marten]

how the hell do i find abandoned structures for the phase 4 mission

the cliffs are massive and i die really easily on them

[quasi copper]

I don't think you have to do it on planet 4.

[crisp marten]

yeah i just read the pins lol

still it's tough to find abandoned buildings

[quasi copper]

However, I recommend using the exocraft, either way. Install the radar and upgrades and scan for abandoned buildings.

[crisp marten]

wait oh my god i just looked i do have access to it

the thought did cross my mind but i didn't think i had access

lmao

[quasi copper]

Exocraft are amazing on bad terrain, too.

[crisp marten]

any tips for finding hungering tendrils? i've never come across one before this mission

oh they just appeared as soon as i landed nvm i guess

[ocean gorge]

If you have that mission selected I think it’s supposed to switch to an alternate version of the visor, the one that gives a directional indicator, to lead you towards a worm burrow so you can trigger hungering tendrils to shoot at

[crisp marten]

landed at my base and was greeted by 4 tendrils

[ocean gorge]

Ahh, good, those are usually marked with a red icon above these weird nest things that stuck up out of the ground

[crisp marten]

yeah i play on easier difficulties typically which would explain why i've never seen them lol

I just established a base in expeditions, i.e. put down a base computer, but it does not register as a base. I still have a "mission" that says: "establish a base, put down a base computer"

[burnt briar]

Maybe you need to interact with it

There should be a button that says “claim base”

[karmic vortex]

I have

[burnt briar]

Oh.

[burnt briar]

That’s weird.

[karmic vortex]

A base

[burnt briar]

So you interacted with the base computer and selected “claim base”

Did you get a message saying that the base was already taken?

[karmic vortex]

No i claimed it

[burnt briar]

Try selecting “delete base” and make it again

[thick umbra]

You need to build a sheet first

[karmic vortex]

A sheet? What do you mean?

[thick umbra]

You must first create a hut ,, sorry

[burnt briar]

Oh

Sorry I couldn’t help

[thick umbra]

need to be done at every planet

[burnt briar]

Meesa stupid

[karmic vortex]

Ok thanks. Now it registered.

[thick umbra]

dont forget to upload it

[karmic vortex]

How do i find my ship in expeditions utopia?

[thick umbra]

if you follow the steps ....

you need to get your visor

upload your base

[karmic vortex]

Ok

How do i upload?

[thick umbra]

interact with your base comp

and check your expeditions missions ,, get your reward .. and take the next mission

[karmic vortex]

Yes it works now. It was the base thing that confused me

[harsh niche]

what qualifies as a hut

3 walls 1 doorway a ceiling and a floor?

[thick umbra]

and 7 other patrs ...

[harsh niche]

what

why

that's already 6

why does a hut need to be 13 parts

[harsh niche]

confusing

[thick umbra]

I simple install 7 of this flora containments

[harsh niche]

it really needs to be 13 parts?

[thick umbra]

https://prnt.sc/iYb8obZjQQI2

[harsh niche]

I know what it is

[thick umbra]

thats all I do ... than its finished

[harsh niche]

but 13

[thick umbra]

no 7

[harsh niche]

why unlucky number

[harsh niche]

6+7 is 13

3 walls 1 door frame 1 ceiling 1 floor is 6

[thick umbra]

okay ... maybe 8 🙂

[karmic vortex]

So will expedition Utopia end in two days? What will happen with the saves?

[wraith venture]

Expedition saves convert upon expedition completion or when the event ends. This one like most will convert to Normal game mode.

[karmic vortex]

Ahh. Ok

[harsh niche]

question

it says your local timezone

how does it know tho

[wraith venture]

Discord knows

that's the time ^_^

[ashen shore]

Discovered by accident that ||after you finish the expedition and go back to the system the space station is normal again, which feels good, feels like I accomplished something||

[frosty wing]

all of my bases were made of wood with 4 floors walls and one door with 4 rooves (doesnt looke right but discord accepts it - been a long time since i had to write rooves)

[ashen shore]

I did that for the first two but then figured out for every other one, plopped down computer wherever on the planet I landed and built a bunch of carbon based decorations till it told me I could move on, destroyed everything and left.

Everytime I leave and come back to this game I have to re-learn that a lot of it is a screen telling you that you have to do something or can't do something, with no actual restriction in place.

[ripe flame]

on the part where you must learn a multi tool part from the utopia multi tool that you build at your base...Ive done that but the mission doesnt complete. any idea why?

I even learned more than one and installed one..still nothing

[thick umbra]

Are you sure that you did install that MT ? And did you open it ?

[ripe flame]

well you should only need to learn it, bit it decided to finaly complete the task after saving and reloading so I guess it glitched

[thick umbra]

sometimes this reward screen appears delayed

[dusky whale]

Happy to see I don't have till today evening to finish that after all

[thin tangle]

only thing I can't do is trigger the volcano milestone to register I'm at the top, any ideas? getting blasted with magma isn't fun 😂

Hey guys I'm curious what are the common intervals between expeditions basically after this one ends how long will it be till the next one starts

[meager scroll]

Couple of weeks maybe

There is no set roadmap for NMS

So far we've been getting 4 expeditions per year

Usually right after a major update

[hollow zealot]

It's probably some sort of update after this

At least one would hope

ahh ok then

[cinder nimbus]

You can tame them normally I'm pretty sure

I tamed a flying mothsnake

This might be a repeat question and sorry if it is, but do you guys think there will ever be another repeat of any of the previous 8 expeditions? I started the game pretty recently so I've only been able to do the current one so I was wondering

People think it's pretty unlikely. You can get the rewards with save editing, though.

Next near rerun will be probably exp 9-12. There is a slim chance that hg will do a rerun of them all after last expedition (we dont know how many exp there will be)

[wintry linden]

Nooo

[frosty wing]

the speeder is literally my best starship
my second best is the twitch hauler
the 2 solars, the fighter and the weird one from the last twitch all suck from what i could tell
i measure this via firepower - the hauler had more firepower than the fighter though it had more manoeuvrability, but i didnt really care much for that stat

then i got the speeder, this thing is so fast

then i upgraded it and it awesome

now i have experienced my first expedition i regret not playing them sooner - and i had the chance to play the replay for Exp 2 (for the Normandy), but was moving 3,000kms away that week and the pc was already packed

i look forward to the next one (and its loot), now i understand expedition's basics

[ionic flax]

I was 3 missions away from getting the speeder 😭😭😭😭

[exotic fulcrum]

rip

Go back in time

[ionic flax]

If only 😂

[median ember]

😩

I think speeder is 2nd unique ship after golden vector 🤔

[median ember]

How are the numbers now

[jagged sedge]

Have you ever flown a Horizon Vector?

[placid dew]

I only came back to this game just to finish the expedition lmao.
Now that expedition ended, time to go back to other games....

[median ember]

Whats that

[jagged sedge]

It's the Switch version exclusive

Comes with the phase beam already in

[median ember]

I have this...from my preorder game

It my starter ship

[frosty wing]

no idea if its good compared to other's
but plenty of room for more S-Class Upgrades for sure

[jagged sedge]

Horizon Vector

[median ember]

Not even nearly to its actual potential

[frosty wing]

you have more tech slots somehow - i havent done that yet, so wouldnt know how to
and more higher class tech - my ship must be...

UPGRADED!!! (couldnt find a decent Cybermen Gif... waah)

[median ember]

A few bits yes...but most stuff and upgrades were pre-installed

Once i max roll stat it...it will be even more faster

N lethal

[cobalt shore]

I love that thing

Utopia Speeder my beloved ♥️

[dusky whale]

Oh they did ?
I'll do the Eigth then :O

[cobalt shore]

8 was done at the last rerun

9-12 (as I see it) will be rerun at the end of this year.

[dusky whale]

Happy I did it thought

[cobalt shore]

Enjoy your new ship!

It's amazing!

[dusky whale]

"Rerun" ? 10 - 11 and 12 ?

It was reruns ?

[cobalt shore]

If we assume we'll have 4 expeditions this year. We just had 9. Next will be 10, 11 and 12

[dusky whale]

Thanks but I think I'll use its tech to one of my ships on my main save

So they won't be reruns, right?

[cobalt shore]

At first we will get them at at the end of this year (most likely Novemver/December) there will be reruns of this year's expeditions.

[outer bobcat]

Hi, I havent played NMS since they updated inventory and stuff and it was super broken

[median ember]

The ship shows its real potential AFTER slapping on some good upgrades and arrangements

[outer bobcat]

Is it good now again?

[cobalt shore]

And this year's next expeditions will probably be 9 (just finished), 10, 11 and 12.

[dusky whale]

I believe you, but I don't like its design

[cobalt shore]

It's a beast

[dusky whale]

Ooooh right !

[cobalt shore]

Last year (2022) we had 5, 6, 7 and 8.
In 2021 we had 1, 2, 3 and 4.
I missed the first 3 because I only started playing NMS in October 2021.

[median ember]

Do you hate color?

[dusky whale]

The whole shape, and the colour too

[median ember]

What color you prefer

[cobalt shore]

I was too busy to figure out how the game worked to do the reruns of the first 3. I did the rerun of 4, though.

[dusky whale]

Black or gunmetal, and gold. Maybe red

I will also allow white, because of the Royal I have now

[median ember]

I found something to your taste check em out
COURTESY @native bloom

[native bloom]

If you want something specific, let me know and I can make it this weekend

[dusky whale]

I really appreciate the effort

Then I might reconsider

Just for reference

Actually I am bummed that the Royal is white but eh

[hollow gazelle]

This is not the hype channel

[wraith venture]

well, i doubt HG will re-run any expos. and no new expo content has been released via game files, which modders would've noticed by now. so we'll definitely need a game update before an expo happens. and we'll have to see an experimental branch update before a game update.

[cobalt shore]

I'm not talking about re-runs, I'm talking about Expedition 10.

But I doubt it will start tomorrow

But the chances of that are never zero 🤷‍♀️

[wraith venture]

exactly. we'd have to see an experimental branch update to get any potential hint for a new expo. and even the past couple of expos, they've not necessarily released as soon as an update hits.

[wraith junco]

Next exp will be in july. Basicaly every 3 months if the 4 exps per year trend will continue

[wanton raft]

I'd love to see a rerun of expedition 1.

[meager scroll]

I'd wager sooner

Consider reduxes alone take 2 months off the year

Assuming HG will try to follow the same release roadmap as in previous years

If you are on Steam, start a new save and select that mode

that being said, I started a bit late and I'm already halfway thru phase 4... so its on the quicker side as far as expeditions go

are there any annoying milestones

When Microsoft lets it through

The hold-up on NMS updates on console is, afaik, always on the QA team at the respective companies passing it

We have no information about the time update 4.3 (Singularity) will be released on your platform. Each platform has its own certification / verification procedure that's out of the developer's control. As a player-run community, we have no insight on said process and cannot determine when the update will go live. This can lead to "version mismatch" error when trying to join a multiplayer session of a player on a different platform.

When updates for other platforms become available, a notification will be posted in #nms-news-ticker channel. You can also run the !NmsVersions command in #bot-spam to get a list of latest game versions for each platform.
