nms-expedition

[light thistle]

That would be infuriating

[gloomy grove]

infuriating community milestones seem common in expeditions

[brazen hearth]

I'm new at this. Where would I find the blueprint/reciepe for the seal?

[light thistle]

How many even do expeditions. At this rate we don't even get 19% in the 5 weeks. Hopefully console will be a significant speed up

[gloomy grove]

it definitely will. does anybody have some percentages of player dispersion based on platform

[little mesa]

can we merge 2 saves that has expedition (which will be converted) to my main saves? I just want to know if the reward can be moved to my main save

[fringe agate]

You can claim the major rewards in any and all saves

[zealous kestrel]

So, Im trying this expedition and Ive been stuck in the camp. Checked all the barrels, Memory dumped both the autophage and harmonic computer in the camp... and its still telling me to seach the camp

I have no idea what to do

[little mesa]

via anomaly?

[gloomy grove]

yep

just head to the quicksilver man

[brazen hearth]

yep. same here

[little mesa]

nice, thank you

[zealous kestrel]

I wonder if we're glitched

[boreal ember]

Did you press C to scan the camp? That triggered the next step for me

[gloomy grove]

at this scale?

oh you're talking about the beginning

[zealous kestrel]

are you serious? that can't be it.. brb with results

[stuck obsidian]

the "sentience echo" milestone is required but a community milestone... does that mean nobody has completed the expedition yet?

[zealous kestrel]

Ill be a **********... that's all it was

[gloomy grove]

nobody has legitimately completed it yet, no

[stuck obsidian]

just when i had a good opinion of this expedition, too :(

[brazen hearth]

Looks like that is it.

[royal slate]

does that count the two helms?

[fringe agate]

As far as I understand it, yes

[royal slate]

so to get them both just save right at the end

or, i should say, reload right after

[fringe agate]

That's we have been told - it would be nice to get more verification

[ocean hollow]

im towards the end and im going to see what my results are

[tribal gull]

Save before you do the first one, and reload that save and get the second one

[royal slate]

the game auto-saves

[tribal gull]

You can save at your ship

[lament dust]

anyone know how i could fix this bug in the expedition?

[tribal gull]

Are you still in combat?

[lament dust]

no

[subtle yew]

Silly question, but I can't access the new expedition on PS5

[lament dust]

Im in space rn and it still says that

[gloomy grove]

it's only and right now

[tribal gull]

Try landing

on the corrupt planet

[cursive orchid]

Just checking in how goes the percentage yall

[gloomy grove]

still 0%!

it's likely bugged

[cursive orchid]

Oh god what, it was at 1% earlier

[lament dust]

didn't work

[tribal gull]

anyways its time to test if feeding the buggy meter works

[tribal gull]

Fight some more corrupt sentinels

see if that works

[lament dust]

alright

[tulip laurel]

I just donated like 50 echo seeds and it's still at 0% lol

[gloomy grove]

its 1% for some, 0% for others

it is very weird

[tribal gull]

The meter and the words say different things for me

[gloomy grove]

it's all very buggy right now

in due time, it'll be fixed

[ocean hollow]

may be paused a bit so it isnt blown out on the first day?

[gloomy grove]

that'd be kinda dumb?

i mean

it could be slowed

[amber bone]

it says i finnished ignite but i cant claim the reward (jumps to gathering echo's) is there a way to fix this?

[ocean hollow]

i dont have an opinion on it but that could be a possibility

[gloomy grove]

ignite doesn't have a claimable reward

it's just to show that you gave the thing to the construct

[tulip laurel]

I wonder if anyone is duping a million of them and just donating them that way lol

[amber bone]

i cant finnish the task (cant claim the full expedition even tho i finnished it) like the only task i have left everytime i click it it goes to gathering echo's 😦

[gloomy grove]

maaaan i hope not

that's too quick

[light thistle]

You have to them 1 at a time

[cursive orchid]

I hope they do, it's annoying to be stopped by this tbh

[gloomy grove]

okay then it'd take forever

[light thistle]

Even a bot would take awhile going 24/7

[cursive orchid]

I'd understand if it was an optional, but I just wanted to do the expedition and make it my new main

Now I'm just stuck

[gloomy grove]

once that percentage goes up to 2% i'll be convinced that this community milestone is supposed to take the entire 5 weeks

[light thistle]

We really just need console to release and the amount dropped

[tulip laurel]

Why do you think there's 5 tiers for it though?

[lament dust]

didn't work any other ideas?

[dusty pecan]

Good chance there is cap per player like leviathan expedition had

[cursive orchid]

I hope it doesn't take 5 weeks considering they finally implemented the feature to convert the save to a normal one as soon as you beat it, that'd defeat the purpose

[light thistle]

5 different decoration rewards

[ocean hollow]

is this as far as we can go?

[gloomy grove]

i've completed the fifth and eighth

[light thistle]

Pretty much. You can talk to the robot to unlock a head

[gloomy grove]

your choice matters and determines what head you get, so choose wisely

[cursive orchid]

Unfortunately yes

[ocean hollow]

gonna save first lol

[gloomy grove]

apparently there's a way to get both?

i don't like it but the option is there

[bitter swallow]

what is it?

[ocean hollow]

#nms-expedition message

this

i say play how you want, everyone gets their enjoyment out of NMS in diff ways

[tribal gull]

All out

[gloomy grove]

just relog

[light thistle]

Try swapping to experimental.

[ocean hollow]

its interesting im not getting any messages to go talk to the robot again

[light thistle]

You meant to after the community one so it won't show

[ocean hollow]

ahh i see

boom

alright collected the first head, going to reload

will let yall know

[tribal iris]

how many seeds does the prime terminal need?

[gloomy grove]

uhhhh

none of us know

[tulip laurel]

Oh, can you not get both heads normally?

[gloomy grove]

not normally

[light thistle]

You normally have to replay the whole thing

[ocean hollow]

no its supposed to be a choice

[tulip laurel]

That's really lame

[ocean hollow]

but you can get both!

[gloomy grove]

lame but otherwise the way it was meant to be

[calm moat]

how many sentience echoes do you have to turn in to complete Ingnite a Convergence?

[light thistle]

You can't

[gloomy grove]

absolutely no idea

but it's probably somewhere in the thousands range

[calm moat]

how do you decode the last 3 objectives?

[gloomy grove]

uhhhh

[tulip laurel]

Well, time to do the entire expedition again lol

[gloomy grove]

you don't

they just kinda stay decrypted for now

i have a hunch that the convergence milestone decrypts them but we won't know until any of us can complete it

[calm moat]

so it's not possible to complete the expedition till the community collects enough echoes?

[light thistle]

Yes

[ocean hollow]

reloading works

just make sure its the oldest reload

[gloomy grove]

bruh

[ocean hollow]

is there a problem? I said i would let everyone know if it worked.

[light thistle]

I just said f it and used a mod to get everything as I practically finished it anyways

[ashen shore]

This is confirmation of the reload save method?

[ocean hollow]

yes

[ashen shore]

Awesome.

A Saint.

[gloomy grove]

@fringe agate i know i shouldn't ping but it's been verified!

[ocean hollow]

my path

[fringe agate]

Nice! Thanks

[ocean hollow]

right before talking to the robot:
dropped a save on a planet, saved. entered anomaly and talked to robot, first choice.

[fringe agate]

You can ping me, no worries

[gloomy grove]

ok neat

[ocean hollow]

i didnt redeem the expedition spots though

just quicksilver. going to check on my other character now

[west island]

ehm hi, does echo seed offer quest locked or something 🤔

[gloomy grove]

...say that again?

[west island]

i offered some and nothing happened 🤷‍♀️

[gloomy grove]

OH!

yeah we can't figure that one out either

[light thistle]

They can really do with making it clearer that it a community goal so ppl don't go mad

[tribal gull]

You didnt trust me? ;-;

[gloomy grove]

nobody is being fooled with that emoji

[tribal gull]

I like the jiggly wires on crimson

[gloomy grove]

exactly why i picked seed of hope

[ocean hollow]

works on expedition save

[gloomy grove]

now for the robot body and-

...oh yeah

[tribal gull]

To confirm I do indeed have both

[west island]

i think i wasted 21 seeds xD

[tribal gull]

More than likely yes

I'm gonna save mine

[ocean hollow]

all working

[woeful prairie]

these robots are just L3 from star wars

[west island]

i'll farm more

[tribal gull]

I want my robot drip

[ashen shore]

So the heads will be available to "choose" from at the anomaly?

[gloomy grove]

got the bucky arm

[ashen shore]

Apologies, I'm not that far in. Raking preparations.

[gloomy grove]

nope

well

yes

but in a different way

you'll see

[ashen shore]

So somewhere along the mission line from a seperate robot, and then obtainable from the robot at the anomaly.

[gloomy grove]

wait how far along are you?

[ashen shore]

.....

Not.

[gloomy grove]

oh

i don't wanna spoil anything

seems kinda contradictory

[ashen shore]

I'm in this channel I've been spoiled alot in the past hour 😅

[tribal gull]

also I kinda wish they'd have given us at least one of the heads from the autophages

[tulip laurel]

Dang they still haven't fixed the cape physics?

[gloomy grove]

10/10 expedition

[bold yacht]

Warped into a freighter battle, do I need to accept this freighter for the mission or should I just take payment?

[woeful prairie]

has anyone deciphered anything about the new atlantids?

[subtle yew]

Any idea when it'll be available on consoles?

[wraith venture]

Sadly we don't You can run !Faq-Update in #bot-spam for more info

[subtle yew]

Thanks

[fast ivy]

Probably not tonight as it's getting to late

[wraith venture]

Thankfully the expedition will run through <t:1689163200:f> so there should be plenty of time to complete it once you get it. Crossing fingers we all get it in the next day or two

[outer dawn]

Is all of this in Euclid?

[tribal iris]

Sooo, has anyone figured out the seed amount you need? Because don't you need to complete the expedition to get the new helmets, so wouldn't someone have figured that out

[whole seal]

Is the Sentience Echo an inv device I can probe?

I explored the camp but can't find it in inv to probe

oh

Nevermind

[wraith venture]

Yeah. This expedition is in Euclid

[tribal iris]

It'd be a shame if the expedition is bugged. I'm really enjoying myself, especially with all the gravitational anomaly planets

[royal slate]

"nada may plant your seed in a sacred place" ...no comment

[tribal iris]

I bet the devs knew what they were doing with that one

[crimson narwhal]

do we have to wait for the community milestone to complete before the final three unlock?

[outer dawn]

If I complete the expedition in my new save does it go to my main save?

[tribal iris]

no

[bold yacht]

Any ideas about this? #nms-expedition message

[crimson narwhal]

the expedition rewards will be claimable on your main save from the quicksilver synthesis agent

[outer dawn]

Oh

Thanks

[tribal iris]

I think the prime terminal needs 19 seeds, since it has the number 19 in the dialog box

[wraith venture]

Only Phase rewards are cross-save (across all your other saves). Nothing else "transfers" over to other saves. Oh and for the record, your expedition converts to a Normal save when you finish it or the event ends.

[tribal iris]

my main save is actually the outlaw expedition save

[honest inlet]

I am lost and confused with this newest Expedition. I'm stuck and did something I think I shouldn't have, I gave some parts to the construct and did something bad I think?

I dont know how to finish this Expedition thingie

[tribal iris]

Are you stuck on the echo seeds?

[honest inlet]

I couldn't finish Echo Seed so I somehow gave parts to the robot and now it says Ive already done one of the options

[outer dawn]

so... robot skin transfers?

thats all i care about!!!!!

i wanna be a beep boop

[honest inlet]

So I think I screwed up horribly, was I suppose to wait until they did the Sentience Echo before installing the parts D:

[tribal iris]

you've made it farther than I have, I'm still working on the echo seeds, I haven't even started on those ones

[honest inlet]

That's the thing I can't seem to finish the Sentience Echo because its the entire playerbase need to complete it. I handed in 100+ Echo Seeds and it didn't budge from 1% on my side

[tribal iris]

I'm still on 0%

[honest inlet]

So I decided to interact with the robot and it said "give parts" I did and it said I chose it to become a machine and not a real sentinece in the description; couldn't get a screenshot of the pop up

But I screwed up horribly

[royal slate]

you can give the thing to the robo guy

and itll let you get the two helms

but then you're just stuck where i am

[honest inlet]

Im not gonna touch this Expedition anymore, I seemed to have mssed up, I wanted to bring the Mother/Glass people here

[honest inlet]

Both of these are at 1% to me and these progress bars seem to be the same exact ones for Community Completeion and not personal completion

[rotund belfry]

is there an S class multitool at the expedition start...it seems if you get the the 1-6-12 glyph combo gets you A class, 12-2-8 is B class and 9-15-4 is C class

[honest inlet]

I didn't even do the Atlas ones from Phase 4 because it felt like a choice I had to make and I don't want to align with Atlas so I went the other way

[royal slate]

just do the other stuff

[tribal iris]

is the neutron cannon a new thing? I don't remember it being a weapon before

[royal slate]

nope old

[honest inlet]

Its been in the game for quite a few recent updates.

[tribal iris]

Oh

well, I love it

[honest inlet]

Its the only weapon I use to take out the corrupted sentinels, it just pops them instantly

[tribal iris]

I use it for sending animals into the stratosphere

and here I was thinking that I could finish this expedition in one sitting. Wonder why the devs decided to make it a community effort this time

[honest inlet]

Well there's also a fresh ARG attached to it so I think it's two-fold.
The community needs to grind out seeds and the other compentant while others from the community and ARG community can decipher those last few assignments is my guess.

[tribal iris]

I almost forgot I had two living ships on my main save

[ashen shore]

For anyone who has all parts, can you mix and match the sentinel appendages with races?

Alla tree head, robot body?

[tribal iris]

I don't think anyone has completed the expedition, but I doubt you can

[ashen shore]

That better be false imma cry.

[honest inlet]

It's time gated atm, there's two main parts that are community required to finish it

Scroll a few posts above

The T1 to T5 bar is always used for Community Completions, so the last few parts are timegated.

[tight verge]

Is the expedition on console yet?

[ashen shore]

Yeah ik, I've been seeing some who've modded through the exp.

One can only hope

[honest inlet]

I am bummed out about the timegate but I like the two choices (you can choose both) one is for Atlas and the other the Void Mother basically

[hidden ether]

Yeah

I thought that the timegate in Leviathan was actually pretty clever, but this just feels kind of annoying

since the one in Leviathan just increased the potency of memory fragments through community progress

not locking off a milestone

[crimson narwhal]

ok i have achieved two objectives that are still encrypted and it will not allow me to claim rewards, is this normal

[tribal iris]

I'm a bit annoyed that I missed literally every expedition after polestar, meaning I don't get of the cool stuff

[carmine breach]

They probably do them again in the future

[hollow gazelle]

They’ve already done replay’s, end of this year they will do utopia but not sure if they’ll do encore of olders that already had one

[tribal iris]

well, I'll mess around with this expedition later. Made it far, just annoyed at the whole gate thing

[hidden ether]

yeah, I typically knock out an expedition in around a day, maybe two, then just play on my main save for a week or two

[honest inlet]

Happened to me too, can't claim them. Im stuck

[wintry void]

If you are on about the ones in phase 5, they are the time gated ones that every1 is talking about @honest inlet

[tulip laurel]

Is everyone enjoying the new expedition so far though? ^^

Except for the time gated part xD

[stuck obsidian]

I enjoyed it, but yeah kinda bummed about the community milestone. wish it was optional

[tulip laurel]

The only gripe I have is that you have to do the entire expedition twice :v

For both helmets

[stuck obsidian]

i really only wanted the ||atlantid helm|| because it bears resemblance to my squid ship lol, but my inner completionist is telling me to go back for the ||crimson helm||

[rotund pecan]

i just reached the tier block

[tulip laurel]

I just used a mod to unlock the armor sets, but it doesn't unlock the other helmet unfortunately :c

[stuck obsidian]

i want to replay the blighted expedition, that one was so so good

[tulip laurel]

I want to replay the leviathan expedition

That was my favorite

^^

Mainly because I like rogue likes a lot lol

[frank scaffold]

my worst nightmare

[ashen shore]

Any helpers? I can't find out how to get the Hermetic Seal blueprint in the Expedition. It says to check the milestones, but I just can't find it.

[rotund pecan]

speak with the autophage

[woeful prairie]

why can I never find any animals when I need them

[rotund pecan]

do the second option, the math is the glyphs you gotta use to unlock it in the first option

phase 1 milestone 1 unlocks the hermetic seal

[ashen shore]

I'm going to go back and double check that, but I had already gotten that completed. Thanks for the tip. I may have missed something.

[rotund pecan]

np. i struggled a bit at first with that myself. hope it helps. if not, i'd recommend starting over cuz it's literally the first milestone.

otherwise contact support if you're that adamant about keeping your save or starting anew and want to make it your main one 🙂

[ashen shore]

Maybe if I reload, it'll help.

[rotund pecan]

worth a shot

[ashen shore]

Gah dang, it's just not showing. The only milestone I've completed so far is collecting Atlantideum.

[rotund pecan]

yeah just try starting over and if it persists, contact support

[ashen shore]

This is what I see. Am I just missing something?

Wait

[rotund pecan]

you're on phase 2 there bud

[ashen shore]

Uhh, thanks LOL. It's been a long day, forgive me. Haha.

[rotund pecan]

no worries lol. best of luck interloper!

[worldly cargo]

my starting code was 12-2-7 and both my starting MT and then one in the cab were c class

wow I shoulda scrolled idk even know how far back what I'm replying to was lmao

[frank scaffold]

delivered 15 more seeds, have fun uploading them

[blazing rapids]

So... is there no completing the 5th phase yet?

[rotund pecan]

nope. stun locked

[blazing rapids]

at least it moved to 2% now

[rotund pecan]

PROgresssssssss

[blazing rapids]

I wish there was a way to deposit more than 1 at a time

[rotund belfry]

seriously what am i missing....1:1 - i got the MT, i got the cords from the dying bot i got the cords to the dissonant spike. i took all the stuff from the wheel barrows

[blazing rapids]

interact with the autophage in the tent to the right of the console

[gloomy grove]

im back after trying out yomi hustle and hating it, has anything changed with the community milestone?

[strange zinc]

hey so in the reward pools, are there any atlas passes? just wanted to know so I can figure out if I want to spend the nanites now or not

[rotund pecan]

nop

[blazing rapids]

So the echo collective, the string 77 68 61 74 20 69 73 20 74 68 69 73 20 70 6C 61 63 65 converted from hex to ascii reads "what is this place"

[strange zinc]

ight, thanks

[rotund pecan]

🫡

[woeful prairie]

man why do they force us to get an indium drive

[wraith venture]

No gif here plz (per pins). Altho I do feel your pain. Same boat

[soft void]

No gifs 👁👄👁 ruh roh

Oh no me message 😢

[astral epoch]

The PlayStation struggle is real

[rotund belfry]

I had to redo the autophage by doing the press c for clues and re-downloading the cords...it wouldn't count it if I didn't

also thank you

[bitter swallow]

if you install both a hijacked laser and a mining beam into ur multitool, does that double the beam's output damage?

[frank scaffold]

im just runnin with my robot

[sly gate]

What percentage is the expedition research at now?

[ashen shore]

I finished. And you can Indeed, mix and match. To an extent.

[tulip laurel]

Still 1% for me ;-;

[sly gate]

o o f

[tulip laurel]

Surely it'll go up a lot this weekend

Since console will be out by then too

[blazing rapids]

shows 2% for me

[frank scaffold]

i think we'll need more than 100000 for this goal

[gloomy grove]

jesus fuck

that's a lot of

seeds

[frank scaffold]

considering that at least 2k people played at the start and got to the seed part, it would be correct

[terse dust]

Don't be a fool like me and think you have to get a Quad Servo from a Sentinel Quad.

Just gather Atlantideum

[tulip laurel]

I did the same thing xD

[terse dust]

fortunately I realized

[sly panther]

is the echo upload still at 1% for everyone?

[granite ibex]

2% here

To be clear, it's not possible to complete the expedition yet, correct?

[granite ibex]

...but the mission pop-up in the corner of the screen (rather than the log interface) says 0%?

[ruby orchid]

How's the expedition going? Still waiting for the patch to drop on PS

[granite ibex]

It's pretty good. Fun story, good pacing.

It doesn't look like players can complete it until a community goal is reached, though.

[frank scaffold]

It will tell 20 when we got to 20 but for now it will show zero as in 0% of stages complete

[frank scaffold]

Yes

[granite ibex]

Also, there's a choice near the end of the mission that determines whether you unlock one helmet or another... I didn't realize they were mutually exclusive until too late.

With any luck both will be unlockable without redoing the entire expedition...

[granite ibex]

Great, thanks for the info!

[ruby orchid]

Yeah, I did see the helmets. I dunno which I want

[frank scaffold]

I will just unlock both through SE :p

[ruby orchid]

Will I be able to jump into this expedition an enjoy it, even if I've not done any before?

[frank scaffold]

Probably yes

It is much easier than the main game

[granite ibex]

I don't see why not. It's a sequel to the previous expedition, but I don't think it'd be confusing if you hadn't played it.

[frank scaffold]

Sequel?

[sly pond]

@frank scaffold That only really applies if youve played through the main game

[strange zinc]

man, Inverted mirrors are annoying to get : /

[frank scaffold]

I've only started at the time i started to do utopia and it was much better than the main game

[frank scaffold]

You dont need them

Or do you just want to get interceptor?

[strange zinc]

I got 2 right now, a C class and A class, but right now I need them to unlock slots on the multitool I got at the camp spawn

[sly pond]

One of the more common criticisms from new players is that the game doesnt hold your hand well enough, so I can only imagine that an Expedition out of the gate would feel overwhelming to most

[rustic summit]

how long until console release?

[frank scaffold]

You'll get some repairs kits from a task, you should focus on other things

[sly pond]

@rustic summit 60s less than since the last time that was asked somewhere lol

[strange zinc]

damm u right... still going to grab some tho incase I see a good ship

[rustic summit]

surely they would say something about this right? a reason about why though

[sly pond]

@rustic summit Thats not really how HG operates - I wouldnt expect an announcement from them til midday Friday, and then only to let us know it wont be til next week - so hope we dont get an announcement lol

[rustic summit]

true ig

[plucky bramble]

Anyone know where the phase 2 atlas interface? I warped to the system but theres no atlas interface

[fervent patrol]

how find sentinel corrupted fast

losing my mind here lmfao

[hidden ether]

I mean, the game is also just really hard in the beginning. Like, the first few minutes of any new playthrough is always the hardest part, especially on higher difficulties

[mellow badge]

how long until Sentience Echo is higher than 0%? I found and uploaded 7 echos

[sly pond]

@fervent patrol Save edit yourself a couple stacks of AI fragments, check dissonant systems, and as long as a non-Dead, non-Exotic planet has corrupt Sentinels, the AI fragment will work

[fervent patrol]

alright ill try that thanks Dharhan

[hidden ether]

I uploaded 35 and it's still at 0% for me. It's based on community progress

[mellow badge]

anyone else got bug with Wayfarer Helm where the things on the side is over your screen when in fps view?

[dim barn]

I'm a bit stuck on Phase 1, where I'm supposed to go to an atlas interface. I warped to the designated system, but nothing there. Is it an actual atlas station im looking for?

[mellow badge]

yes, I had no issue finding atlas stations

[dim barn]

Okay, but that doesn't help me

There is no atlas station in the system it told me to warp to

[boreal ember]

Did you follow the red, Atlas related path?

[dim barn]

Tells me to open the map, and follow the line, but I'm AT the end of that line

I followed the path it told me to follow

[mellow badge]

can I post an image here? I just equipped the Crimson Constructh head, and its bugged

[boreal ember]

The quest path didn't work for me, so I followed the expedition path first, which led me to the pilgrimage planet. Following the Atlas path worked for me

[dim barn]

Yeah, I figured as much

[north oak]

Same issue here

[dim barn]

Yeah, im just warping to the nearest system using the atlas line

[plucky bramble]

Same with phase 2. No atlas interface as well

[terse dust]

You can just go back to the first one. That's what I did.

I think you can just ask Polo for the nearest one and go that way.

[vital spire]

How do I find the atlas interface?

[plucky bramble]

Thanks i just did that

[dim barn]

You don't need Polo, can just select Atlas Path from the map

And good tip on going back to the same Interface

[vital spire]

Ah alright, the expidation lead me to a system where I can't find an atlas interface

[dim barn]

Same. You DO need to return to that system after, though

So not really a loss, just a little confusing

[vital spire]

Ah ok

[main agate]

so im assuming mission 3 of phase 5 is locked until the tiers get met?

also i accidently completed one of the optional missions and another encrypted one. dont know how to claim the rewards though

[quasi prawn]

When did this expedition started?

[terse dust]

Today on PC

Well, yesterday if you're in EST timezone like me lol

[dry escarp]

How to do the "prayer IV"? i've talked to the Nada already, but i still dont have directions for the atlas interface

[terse dust]

Just go back to the same one you've been to

reusable

[dry escarp]

nothing shows up when i go up to the interface

[half copper]

where is the atlas interface in the expedition pls

[neat latch]

Starting system and rv4 system should have atlas interface. I haven't started the expd but judging by the glyphs of those systems they should.

Wait no. I am dumb

@terse dust halp!

[unkempt igloo]

Wow, still no update for me...

[blazing rapids]

Make sure and have that milestone selected when navigating to the atlas

[obtuse talon]

Not this,the last mission is other places

[frank scaffold]

Best way is to just select atlas path in the galaxy map and follow it to the system

[thorn lintel]

Just started the expedition, is it possible to tame any of the flying animals on the starting planet?

[tawdry vector]

Just select the mission where you have to visit the Atlas. Then the expedition route will guide you.

[frank scaffold]

Yes

[frank scaffold]

You could try, but what's the point?

[thorn lintel]

I want a flying pet that I can ride

[dry escarp]

how many awareness echos i need to bring to the main terminal?

[west island]

Did they unlocked sentience echo quest ?

[twilit yoke]

Anyone know what time Expedition usually comes out on consoles?

[hollow frost]

I was wondering where it was since the last one released natively on all platforms it was available on at the same time

[frank scaffold]

After 3 days probably

You see it's unstable and the update can roll out anytime

[half copper]

itsa taking me far away i dont wanna make a whole trip and then it goes no where

cant even see the end of the journey

[frank scaffold]

That's bad

[half copper]

ffs

my first expedition lol

even the rewards of this one seem shit compared to the other ones

[frank scaffold]

If it's the first system i suggest starting over

[half copper]

cool

[frank scaffold]

They're good enough, fractal had no better rewards

Utopia was ab exception

Speeder ship i mean

[half copper]

is the rewards seriously just cosmetic stuff i was hoping for a ship or at least a cool egg

might not even bother i could just hunt for kl ships on my main save

[knotty shadow]

Anyone were on those planets? This picture above is now from google, it got some red color but what I found has literally no color at all.. anyone else found that too?

[frank scaffold]

iirc this our 2nd or 3rd ship as a reward from an expedition

[silk hemlock]

Still no progress on console update?

[frank scaffold]

Nope

[silk hemlock]

Great.

[frank scaffold]

Wait for it to be announced in #nms-announcements and #nms-news-ticker

[half copper]

i found a lost blue planet like that

[silk hemlock]

Ok

[knotty shadow]

Where there also those strange plants that glew up white and then rainbow sometimes when it's day?

[silk hemlock]

Does anyone know why console is taking longer?

[knotty shadow]

Maybe lack of performance 🤷‍♂️

[frank scaffold]

It's a different platform so it's different performance issues, different inputs into the game, etc.

[silk hemlock]

Ah ok

[pallid bone]

hey so

the echos thing

actually

do we need to finish the echos quest to do the last one?

what in the matthew patthew

[rapid elk]

Is the echos quest still not working?

[pallid bone]

the ||sentience echos|| one

[rapid elk]

Is it still bugged?

[pallid bone]

no idea

[rapid elk]

Oh

[lusty horizon]

wym bugged?

[frank scaffold]

Suggest posting it in #nms-arg-2023 , and i think they already got that

[ashen shore]

The Atlas Heretics shall fall

The Atlantid Reigns Supreme

[frank scaffold]

It's not bugged, it's a collective milestone

[lusty horizon]

oh my bad, wrong chat

[pallid bone]

HOLY SHIT

OKAY

OKAY

SO

IF YOU GIVE THE CONSTRUCT A SEED OF HOPE

well

you have two endings

||either give him the atlaid reactor or the seed of hope you get two endings depending on which||

[cerulean osprey]

i cant get atlas coords someone pls help

not even if i ask polo

[lusty horizon]

oh fuck really? Why didn't I check that dude one sec

[pallid bone]

should be automatically given in the quest

[cerulean osprey]

im on phase 4

for some reason it just wont give me the coords

[pallid bone]

not sure for phase 4

also

||there are two construct heads depending on the ending, the crimson and the atlantid for your rewards back in a normal save||

[cerulean osprey]

i got the seed of will

[pallid bone]

Keep playing the expedition

wont spoil anything

[cerulean osprey]

k

[pallid bone]

how do you get ||atlantid reactors||

[dry escarp]

talk to the autophage at the 5th stop

[slender lodge]

How long do expeditions usually lasts? Days, weeks, months?

[pallid bone]

weeks

[slender lodge]

As in, how long are they available to participate in not how long do they take

[pallid bone]

pilgrimige 5?

[dry escarp]

5 weeks

[slender lodge]

@untold pebble when are you back

[dry escarp]

yup

[pallid bone]

what system is it in

hold up

ohh

where do you get the ||crystallised heart|| from?

[untold pebble]

August 6th will be my first full day

[slender lodge]

Is that 5 weeks from now

You’re the math head

[untold pebble]

No

More

8 and 3 days

[lusty horizon]

you were right man! It's a bit out of order, because technically even after doing it, the milestone is still "Classified," and you can't claim the rewards. I'm assuming we have to wait till the Community Event is done, but very cool! Guess after doing that, we're basically done with the expedition. Thanks for the tip!

[pallid bone]

Yay im helping

[dry escarp]

you should have it from the first autophage talk quest, if you didnt sold it

[pallid bone]

oops

[lusty horizon]

You can kill the four-legged walkers and get them as well, though

[pallid bone]

very cool

[slender lodge]

[dry escarp]

if you have that neutron blaster they are very easy to kill

[pallid bone]

🫡

off to kill some dogs

[dry escarp]

||i hate that community quest with sentience echoes, i would rather have to collect 100 or 200 of those things instead of it being an community quest||

[viral yew]

How do I proceed from 'ignite a convergence'?

[pallid bone]

||hey so you cant give assembled construct a atlantid reactor if you already gave him a seed of atlas||

[dry escarp]

||you dont, it an community quest, you just have to help and collect as many sentience echoes and hope other will do the same||

[cerulean osprey]

nvm i was just trying to do the wrong part lol

[viral yew]

community quest!? really?

[pallid bone]

yes sadly :(

[dry escarp]

yeah, i also hate it

[viral yew]

I'm not doing this alone, right?

[dry escarp]

im currently filled almost filled up with sentience echoes

[pallid bone]

YOU CANT GET FUCKIN BOTH HEADPIECES????

GAHHHHHH

MY ADHD WILL NOT ALLOW IT

[dry escarp]

from what we heard, yes, and i also hate it, i think the nms save editor will come out faster then we will finish this community quest and i will just allow myself to add both headpieces

[pallid bone]

IM GOING TO FUCKING MURDER

THE DEVELOPERS

||Crimson ending, will have to get back on yall for the corrupt / atlantid one||

||Purple one is ignition, the ending of the expedition||
||Red one is, well, Crimson, for the Crimson ending||

Im gonna go redo the expedition to get the second ending

I dont care

[dry escarp]

||how did you uncover the last three questes? they are still encripted even tho i completed every quest i could||

[pallid bone]

||Get either the seed of hope or the atlantid reactor, go to the <Fucking Construct> and put it in him||

||no log, but thats how 90% of devs get you||

[dry escarp]

OH

[neat latch]

@pallid bone be mindful of the terminology you use in the server. Adhere to our #server-rules and pinned channel rules. Especially Rule 1.

[pallid bone]

My bad my bad

[neat latch]

👍

[pallid bone]

Also
you get a crystallised heart at the first expedition quest :D

[neat latch]

:3

[pallid bone]

am I allowed to post the rewards here with spoilers for the ending of expedition 10 or no

[dry escarp]

yes, or you can use the nms save editor when it updates if you arent feeling completing the same expedition twice

[pallid bone]

Yes.

Im doing it

[lone echo]

I somehow got the purple one
No idea how I'd do the crimson one
Especially since the milestone says nothing but random letters

[naive prism]

does it work to make a backup of the save in phase 5, then complete it one way (claim on other saves), restore backup save, complete it the other way and claim other rewards?

[lone echo]

Couldn't even get the reward as it won't let me use it

[tender island]

i’m about to try and do this, i’ll see if it works

[lost shale]

is it available on Nintendo Switch?

because i didnt got it

[pallid bone]

The reward exists

[boreal ember]

That won't work if the game autosaves after claiming the milestone reward because then you will load into the autosave when you switch saves for a moment to claim the reward on your other char.
However, if you complete the milestone, claim the reward and then reload your manual save from right before completing the milestone and just choose the other one and claim it, that should work.

[pallid bone]

Go out of the expedition, into any save except for the expedition one, go to the anomaly and go claim it

[vital spire]

I have reached phase 3!

[fringe agate]

Yay!

[frank scaffold]

How's the echo seed %?

I hope it's at least 3

[dry escarp]

it was 3% 5 hours ago

[frank scaffold]

Now?

[dry escarp]

let me check

[vital spire]

And the funny thing is that I already had done one of the adjectives lol

[fringe agate]

No adverbs though I hope

[vital spire]

I might sound stupid but what is a adverb-

[tender island]

adjective that describes a verb

[fringe agate]

No worries, silly English grammar joke

[dry escarp]

do you think that HG has a plan in case we dont complete this community quest before time is up?

[tender island]

anything ending -ly (slowly, easily etc)

[vital spire]

Ah ok

[fringe agate]

Yes

[vital spire]

Increase the expidation time

[frank scaffold]

You said adjective, and gleam replied with adverb

[fringe agate]

Nah, they mess with the percentage - they do that with the Nexus community goals sometimes if we aren't fast enough

[frank scaffold]

That's what they did with the cape

[fringe agate]

Yeah? I haven't done any for a bit so wasn't paying attention

[frank scaffold]

It was 89 and spiked to 95

And then it completed

[fringe agate]

There you go, same thing would happen if needed for this

[frank scaffold]

We will probs need it since only 2% at the start

[dry escarp]

imo they would just pass the quest for everyone

[frank scaffold]

And I don't know if it's the whole thing or just the first phase

[vital spire]

Lol

[dry escarp]

after 5 weeks that is ofc

[vital spire]

We better do the community thing quick or this expidation may turn into a quest XD

[dry escarp]

the community quest is at... 4%

[frank scaffold]

I thought of duping the seeds, lol

Then i would give to some people, they all turn off pvp and we efficiently insert all of them

At least the number of them is infinite so nobody can cause a shortage of them lol

[pallid bone]

We have like

at least a hundred

in already

cause I threw in 23 of them

[frank scaffold]

I think we have like 4000 in

[pallid bone]

AND ITS ONLY 4%

god bless

[frank scaffold]

And I don't even know if it's the percentage of the first stage 😅

[dreamy breach]

It's Ridiculous.

[pallid bone]

definitely not

[frank scaffold]

Who knows lol

[pallid bone]

I love and loathe this game

[tender island]

backup method works, I used a backup of my save prior to doing atlantid ending, then moving the backup to another slot and I could get the crimson ending. rewards still aren't claimable so I have no clue how it'll affect normal saves however

[dry escarp]

i will try using the nms save editor to see if i can dupe it that way

duping the items using a save editor works, even tho save editor is outdated, items were added before the update

[runic crescent]

i used a mod to get the last bit of items. since im not waiting for a community thing. did everything legit up until the very last phase 5 community thing

[meager warren]

any reports of the Expedition not being available for Xbox?

[fringe agate]

Yes, consoles (and PC Gamepass) don't have the update

[lone echo]

Haven't played today
Is the ignition milestone still bugged?

[remote thunder]

well, tbh we're not 100% sure it is a bug, but yes, still unable to complete that one

[lone echo]

I'm pretty sure it's bugged because the game tells me it's done but it's apparently still encrypted
But it also says i need another encrypted milestone first, but there are none

[crimson narwhal]

it could be tied to the community milestone, 3rd one in phase 5

[viral trail]

I'm almost certain the bug is that we're able to do it at all
pretty sure we shouldn't be able to get the item to interact with the construct until the community milestone is done, because until it is done, we can't complete or interact with the hidden milestones

[lone echo]

Guess they messed up the order of the milestones somehow

Whelp
I'll check back in a week or so
I've modded the rewards in anyway because I'm not waiting for the community

[jagged charm]

You can do Milestones in any order

[lone echo]

True but some wouldn't be available until you finished another
They could've done it like that

[jagged charm]

They sometimes do

[viral trail]

I can't say for certain, but I assume it's either:
A: they let us access the item when we shouldn't be able to until the end
or B: there's interactions that are supposed to happen at each stage of the community milestone, and somehow instead of triggering those, it skipped all the way to the end

[meager warren]

oh poopy, any timeline for their availability?

[fringe agate]

Nope

Waiting on series x myself

[meager warren]

twinsies 😭

[viral trail]

finally made it to 1% 🎊

[frank scaffold]

Someone has 4% iirc

[crimson narwhal]

i know i pumped 28 seeds into it, and saw a lot of others coming back often

[viral trail]

hoping that once consoles get their mitts on things, the progress will start really picking up

[frank scaffold]

Hope so

[remote anchor]

Anyone has issues with prayer IV?

It won’t allow me to go to atlas 😂

[lilac oracle]

so let me get this straight - depending on what item you put in the construct - either the atlantid reactor or the seed of hope - you only get 1 reward at the end of the expedition ?

and if you don't want to edit your saves you have to do it all over again to get the other reward ?

[fringe agate]

Reports I'm hearing now say that it doesn't matter for the unlocking - you will unlock both for other saves.

Haven't tested personally

[lilac oracle]

that would be nice... since i'm not really in the mood to do an expedition twice 😛

[meager warren]

I'll do my part! ™️

[lyric roost]

If you save before doing that and reload you can get both helmets. Someone tested it

[vital spire]

So basically you need to do it twice (which means for 7 total days if you do two phase per day) to get both legitimately

[normal cove]

whats up with sentience echo milestone?

[fringe agate]

Not from what I hear

[normal cove]

i uploaded a few seeds and its still not completed

[fringe agate]

Both unlock in your other saves is what I'm being told, by a reliable source

[vital spire]

Ah alright

[fringe agate]

Someone that did the choice should go check their other saves

[vital spire]

I am at the 3rd phase right now but I will try to complete it today if possible

[normal cove]

i did it like in 5 hours

but struggled on phase 4

for a bit

[remote anchor]

I’m on the 4th phase, spoken to Nada but not sure how to proceed?

[vital spire]

Just ||hunting 19 corrupted sentinels with the starter weapon is going to be hell lol||

[normal cove]

||mostly because gamma weeds decided not to spawn like ever ||

[frank scaffold]

They give neutron cannon as a reward in one of the milestones

And upgrades to it in the other

[vital spire]

Fair, just need to buy unstable plasma lol-

[frank scaffold]

You recharge it with carbon

[vital spire]

Oh- I must have confused it with another weapon

[normal cove]

its pretty good against currupted sentinels

[frank scaffold]

I liked fighting with it

[tribal gull]

Neutron cannon is nice

[fringe agate]

Sorry, I haven't had the chance to play yet - no idea

[normal cove]

i guess we gotta wait till the community event is finished

[west island]

mine is 1% too idk how

[normal cove]

but is 1 stage required or all?

[remote anchor]

Not sure if it’s bugged out. This is my first expedition too 😂

[stoic fiber]

I am new, in the new expedition i can't find space anomaly ? Can anyone point me out

[normal cove]

one of previous expeditions also had such thing and if i remember it just finished itself at some point

[blazing rapids]

It doesn't show up until after your first jump I believe.

[normal cove]

ye

[mild jackal]

in the latest expidition, part 2 "to cast a shadow" where the hell do you find the autophage. Ive found ONE at a camp, but it gives nothing

[blazing rapids]

make sure and have the milestone selected

and the quest selected

it should be the autophage at the rendezvous

[shut sedge]

I’m having trouble completing phase 1 part 5, where it says to present the construct to the Atlas. I have the construct head in my inventory. I tried to restart the game, turn off multiplayer and when I walk up to the atlas it doesn’t do anything

[young flame]

Is this a part of a community goal?

[blazing rapids]

Also make sure and have the milestone and quest selected

[shut sedge]

I do :/

[young flame]

Cause I just dumped over 30 seeds and the progress went nowhere

[blazing rapids]

Yea, it is a community goal

[young flame]

Ah I see

[turbid falcon]

When does the ps5 one start

[remote anchor]

Where is nada’s prime terminal 😂

[turbid falcon]

Do I have to start a new game

[blazing rapids]

In the nexus, where you put artemis in the main quest

[shut sedge]

This is where I need to be right?

[blazing rapids]

Should be. Might try saving, disabling multiplayer and reloading

[turbid falcon]

I'm new to expeditions how do I start it and is it available on ps5 it says none are available

[young flame]

For PS5 it usually launches a couple days later than PC

[turbid falcon]

Thanx

[remote anchor]

Thought so but it won’t allow me to add anything. But the missions wants me to speak to Nada which I have but I need to go to Atlas but it won’t show up on the map

[young flame]

So you can't speak with the Atlas?

[remote anchor]

I can’t even get to that point 😂

I’m on phase 4 mission 4

[silent elbow]

VERY IMPORTANT ADVICE: Collect the sentinel multitool at the start of the expedition. It's wayyyy better than the standard one.

[vital spire]

For now it isn't Available but when it will be, make a new file and in the top left corner you will see the expidation option

[turbid falcon]

Ok thanx heaps

[vital spire]

Np

[vital spire]

That or take the second one from the second camp

[young flame]

I'm at a loss. I have no idea what I'm supposed to complete. I have completed absolutely everything on every phase besides one mission that is the community goal

[pallid bone]

I posted that up top if you want spoilers

[young flame]

How far up? I can't seem to find it

[pallid bone]

ah busted

gimme a mo

[lilac oracle]

That's probably unlocked after the echo part is completed by the community

[pallid bone]

nah its obtainable

On my way to do the ||Corrupt/Atlantid ending||

[lilac oracle]

it seems pretty encrypted from your side

[young flame]

That one is encrypted too for me

[pallid bone]

Oh yall are asking how to unlock it or

[lilac oracle]

😄

[pallid bone]

Simple as

[runic crescent]

I too am stuck on that purple one being un claimable

[pallid bone]

finish the expedition

||star seed OR atlantidthingabob reactor||

||Shove it into the <Fucking Construct> and tadaaa||

collect rewards outside expedition save

in the anomaly

QS merchant

[lilac oracle]

i think hellogames might have messed up this one - logic dictates it should've worked like that after the echo thing was completed by us

[pallid bone]

Nah, just some no-logging

unless?

[young flame]

I'm very much stuck at this point. I can't get these in any way

[lilac oracle]

unless after the echo thing is completed and the next ones are decrypted

[pallid bone]

dont need to do echo

[frank scaffold]

It will do itself overtime

[pallid bone]

just get either ||star seed or atlantid reactoe and the construct||

[lilac oracle]

and after they are decrypted they show actual proper freaking instructions

[pallid bone]

what he said

[pallid bone]

Optional ones are endings

[lilac oracle]

yeah i kinda figured that one out ;P

[pallid bone]

the main end is when you shove the damn thingabob into the sikkidibumumdap

yk?

[young flame]

In that case I'm just hardstuck

[nova merlin]

Mine are encrypted still

[pallid bone]

good luck uncrypting them

im just telling you how to get the milestones

[shut sedge]

Am I supposed to have the option to present the construct head?

[pallid bone]

yes?

[lilac oracle]

you can complete them even if encrypted - that's what Aragnoa says - but they won't decrypt and show proper instructions until the echo part is done by the community

[pallid bone]

depends on your milestones

[pallid bone]

YES

THIS

[young flame]

Ah thanks. I figured it out too

[lilac oracle]

and I guess a lot of people - including me - are confused by the encrypted part and want to solve that right away - which won't work right away 😦

[pallid bone]

I just fuckin bash my head in until it works

wanna join?

[lilac oracle]

no tyvm i'm good

[pallid bone]

booooo

[lilac oracle]

I was already there earlier, when I realised they actually want us to farm items to move a virtual progress bar

[pallid bone]

Stupid eh

the game

[young flame]

||It's weird to see you have a reward but you can't actually claim it with the expedition account||

[lilac oracle]

above and beyond!

[pallid bone]

||WHY DOES NOONE DO THE COORUPT RUCKING ENDINGREAAAAAAA||

[lilac oracle]

I'm going to worry about finding new ships and planets and I simply cannot be asked to farm & fill up an imaginary progress bar 🙂

let's see how it goes 😛

[pallid bone]

let the dupers do it

[honest inlet]

All these Atlas Simps in here, I'm going full Alantnanid or whatever they're called along with Void Mother.

[lone echo]

I somehow got that one by accident
Not like it has any indicators of what you can do

[ashen shore]

Has the expedition come to console yet

[pallid bone]

"or whatever they're called"
He who proclaims he is devout but knows not his lord nor his religion shall fall into his own despair, for the lead he chases will be his own tail.

[pallid bone]

sadly no, only pc and mac

[lone echo]

I like the purple head more anyway

[pallid bone]

Can you send a pic here? with spoilers

Im curious

[lone echo]

I modded the set in as it's locked behind the community milestone

[cosmic harness]

let me enjoy my donut head in peace

[runic crescent]

^ same. Sorry. Locking expedition completion behind a community progress bar is just bad

[fringe agate]

Doubt its intentional, the other community one wasn't required and we have had optional ones before

[runic crescent]

Maybe its bugged

[fringe agate]

Let them get it out to consoles, and then patching

[cosmic harness]

with the other bugs i've encountered in the expedition, it's probably is

[lone echo]

That and another requirement seems bugged atm

[runic crescent]

Only explanation is its bugged

[fringe agate]

That's the consensus yep

[runic crescent]

I did it legit just couldnt progress because of bug

[lone echo]

Same here
I did it in one evening yesterday

[runic crescent]

So i modded the robot character parts

[knotty shadow]

Are you like the right hand for the owner of nms?

[runic crescent]

Only thing i needed

[fringe agate]

I'm Batman

[runic crescent]

This expedition felt nice and straight forward tho

I hope future ones are as eaay

Easy

[knotty shadow]

Ok batman

[fringe agate]

They have all been easy

[lone echo]

I'm pretty open with my dislike of expeditions
This one was at least short
But then was ruined by the community requirements

[fringe agate]

Some are lengthier than others

[runic crescent]

They should be short tbh but have story content

This one felt linear

Not sure if all of them are

[lone echo]

Just never a repeat Leviathan
That one made me legit quit

[runic crescent]

Since i edited 1-9

[dark cliff]

Are we expected to buy a quad servo for the new expediotion? Just got to the secodn paert to make the arm

[lone echo]

Oh there's a singularity badge already?

[frank scaffold]

Just die as quickly as possible and then survive

You can apply the badge since there's still a lock to progress on the expedition

[lone echo]

I slid off a mountain halfway through and left it there

[fringe agate]

You can get them by killing sents

Not sure if one of the milestones awards them, haven't played yet

[frank scaffold]

You should have used your jetpack at the end

Of falling

[lone echo]

The milestone to collect purple stuff gives you a quad servo

[lone echo]

Sliding and falling do not replenish an empty jetpack

[dark cliff]

Regular or corrupted?

[runic crescent]

It tells you to kill corrupt

[fringe agate]

And #nms-expedition message

[dark cliff]

Actual it says to assemble the the limb and not much else

[lone echo]

What was the stuff called again?
Atlantanium or whatever

[cosmic harness]

atlatidium

i think

[lone echo]

Dah purple shid da bots are stuck in n' shid

[cosmic harness]

yes

[sly gate]

I have woken up and we're on 6%, I guess we'll hit 19% within the next few days, hope everyone enjoys Summer Games Fest today at least

[lone echo]

Would've been cool to have a full corrupted version of the robot set with crystals instead of just an alt head

[shy dagger]

WTF WHY IS THE SEED SOUND SO CREEPY

[dark cliff]

Where can I find a quad servo

[west island]

normally if u complete phases, game gives you one as reward

[dark cliff]

Well I probably sold it

[west island]

ok time to kill some sentinels then

[dark cliff]

Ive not been given the reseource4s to figjht endlessw sentinels

[west island]

maybe some NPC sell them on Space Stations idk 🤔

[remote anchor]

I’m still stuck on how to get this mission done. I’ve spoke to Nada but nothing else has happened 🤦‍♂️

[cosmic harness]

complete the grand divergence milestone to proceed

[blazing rapids]

Phase 2 give you a neutron cannon and 2 supreme upgrades for it

Select the grand divergence milestione to continue

[remote anchor]

Thanks man 😂 first time doing it an expedition

[cosmic harness]

make sure you have some atlantidium on hand

you need to insert some into nada's monolith thingy to complete it

[modest garnet]

can you get ||both head options after completing the expedition||?

[tawdry vector]

You can also find Quad Servo when raiding abandend camps.

[west island]

[dark cliff]

How ddo you find those?\

NM

[visual crane]

So,... how should I go about finding sentinels?

for servo. also need 16 later on

[gentle crest]

is it only one echo seed per planet?

[blazing rapids]

no, there are lots

You can have multiple in the same spot

[modest garnet]

thanks, good to know 🙏

[blazing rapids]

Look for dissonance resonators on rendezvous planets.

or any dissonant world

[gentle crest]

weird becuase im not finding any more on this planet

[west island]

nope, it was easier than previous expedition for me 🤔

exactly, there is a short story

[nova merlin]

its short as long as you don't get bugged and can't decrypt some of the milestones

[shy dagger]

So i met one of the "new atlantis" anomalies. Is it unique or you can find more?

[mellow badge]

if you mean those floating purple crystal things that gives you a random hex code, I ran into em often, without even the anomoly warning popping up

[visual crane]

I destroyed an entire swarm and got no servo

honestly this is bad design, should have had some warning / prevention from selling it

[shy dagger]

Cause i do a photo of every anomaly but i destroyed it first ;-;

[mellow badge]

from the wiki ```It can be obtained by the following methods:

destroying the Combat Supplies containers dropped by Sentinel Quads
Suspicious Packet (Goods) from the Scrap Dealer
a gift from Guild Envoys of the Mercenaries Guild```

[fringe agate]

Sus packets in outlaw systems also

[lilac oracle]

Quad servo drops from the regular sentinel dogs, not from the corrupted sentinels. Also they might drop from robot echos, I've got some giving me 10 inverted mirrors, others 10 brains and yes, others 10 quad servos... you also get one during the rewards of a milestone in this expedition

[visual crane]

Hmm.. how do I go aobut finding those?

robot echoes

[lilac oracle]

regular planet... look for a factory, they usually have 2 dogs around. or simply start sh..tuff up on a regular planet, wave 3+ comes with dogs aka sentinel quads

[visual crane]

I see, thanks

[lilac oracle]

robot echos are like those dismemebered robots around the dissonant planets, but that is RNG

[still slate]

So, I just started playing a week ago. I get to forget the 200 hours in, and keep starting new games to play expeditions?

[lilac oracle]

for each expedition you start a new game

[still slate]

So don't complete the game... keep starting new ones?

[tribal gull]

The quad sentinels are usually found on normal planets

[still slate]

And if you join when there isn't a current one, you lose until you start all over?

[tribal gull]

Go to an agressive sentinel planet and grab a gravtino ball, they appear at wave 3

Dissonant systems usually have an agressive sentinel planet

[visual crane]

many thanks!

I also missed out on a big freighter that apparently is given for free?

[lilac oracle]

first freighter is always free

[visual crane]

cuz I got a smaller one from a battle before that.. the warps took me in another direction. Anyway, detours but guess they're worth it

[still slate]

Why are they asking me to abondon my original save to be included?

[gentle crest]

anyone else having problems when using the target sweep and it says no mission detected? The sentience echo mission is selected

[still slate]

I put my heart and soul in a save, and I can't play the whole game because I didn't start at a specific time?

[fringe agate]

?

[lilac oracle]

expeditions are timed events, thus they require a different save file

[fringe agate]

Everyone starts expeditions with a new save. The major rewards are able to be claimed on any and all saves

[still slate]

So back to forget finishing the game- keep making new saves? You don't get to have loyalty to your first game?

[lilac oracle]

but don't worry, after you finish the expedition you can also claim it's rewards on your main save file

[fringe agate]

Huh?

I play the expeditions and then delete that save and go back to my main

And claim the rewards for that save

[still slate]

Then you on't benefit from the expedition if you just delete it.

[fringe agate]

I don't think you are following this

[visual crane]

Guess that'd depend on how many saves you have...
if there's even a limit to it

[fringe agate]

You can claim the rewards on all of your saves

[still slate]

why have more than one?

[fringe agate]

Past, present or future

[steady idol]

I always delete the expedition after I'm done

Rewards claimed on my main save for sure from the anomaly

[fringe agate]

For expeditions, and other modes

I have a creative, perma and normal right now

[still slate]

but that just stops progress.

[fringe agate]

No, it doesn't

[steady idol]

What progress? Once you're done with the expedition there's no more purpose to it

[still slate]

well I can't play my save with stuff if I have to spen time on a new save

[lilac oracle]

imagine i start this expedition with my main save, where everything is maxed out and i finish it in no time - doesn't that take away the thrill completely ? that's why you start fresh each time with a new expedition

[still slate]

Imagine you care about your main save and don't want to start all over to play all the modes.

[mighty tusk]

How long does it take to do the new 10 expeditions.

[fringe agate]

The expeditions typically take a few hours at most, and are not required. This is optional content, but the rewards are across all of your saves

[mellow badge]

starting new exp fresh does not stop you from continuing your normal save after

[lone echo]

I dyed them in my usual colors

[fringe agate]

Yeah exactly

[still slate]

oh- a few hours.... thats different

[mighty tusk]

But I rlly want that robot skin

[still slate]

I was expecting like 20+ hours

[mighty tusk]

Damn

[fringe agate]

The 5 week time limit is so most people will have a chance to play not indicative of the time needed to finish

[lilac oracle]

if you don't rush it like you're during the Olympics you can stretch it to a few more hours

[steady idol]

Expeditions, to me, are a means to get new stuff and that's it. I don't personally see them as a new save to start on

[mellow badge]

how can you unlock the construct appearance if it requires finishing the expedition? is the Sentience Echo's minestone finally complete?

[mighty tusk]

Ya it will probably take 2-3 weeks for me to finish

[steady idol]

I had hoped it would've went live on PS5 by now to get started however...

Curious as to what's holding the update up

[still slate]

that's like having to start a new WoW character every time there is another raid.

[lilac oracle]

more like a new char on a diablo 3 season

[harsh hinge]

are expeditions hard to do?

[lilac oracle]

not very hard, but sometimes you have to go on planets with agressive sentinels, etc

not this one though

[harsh hinge]

Ok that’s good

[still slate]

the difficulty isn't the issue- it's breaking continuity

I have to abondon my game to do it.

I can';t just do it in the game I have go knows how much effort in, already.

[mighty tusk]

What?

Wdym

[lilac oracle]

man if you don't like breaking continuity don't play the expedition. it's like saying to blizz why do we have do make a new toon in diablo for each season, i like to play my main

[mighty tusk]

What is breaking the community

[lilac oracle]

continuity, kinda different. bugs are breaking the community

and progress bars 🙂

[mellow badge]

wow, get on and the community milestone is only at 1%, probably gonna be incomplete for whole 5 weeks

[mighty tusk]

Than we won't get the robo skin?

[lilac oracle]

then the devs will wave their magic wand and poof ... 100%

[still slate]

Thanks all, not sarcastically for explaining-

this is how I see it. The devs don't understand players immerse themselves into a single instance. That's their (the player's) game- they on't play 5 versions of the same openm world game as it's rather pointless.

[mellow badge]

how many Echo Seeds is it gonna take to finish? 50,000?

[amber bone]

hey stupid question, i'm about at the stage i have to put the seed in the spider robot but where do u get the atlas seed? is it the hope thing?

[fringe agate]

Don't think it matters right now, seems bugged

[lilac oracle]

honestly it's a good thing to have a break from time to time. I've got many many hours on my main save, everything is perfect, nothing left do to but to endlessly explore. on a expedition save i try new stuff that i'm too lazy to invest in on my main 😉

[still slate]

I only have a main. It makes no sense to me to have any more. Why split my effort?

[fringe agate]

This is a side adventure, you don't have to play it

[lilac oracle]

i understand your point. but you won't see me in a b-class shuttle on my main. the expedition kinda forces me to try that one out too :))

[pallid bone]

Its nice to go out of your main to play :)

[fringe agate]

You could always make it part of your character - dreaming or something

[still slate]

I'm just lashing at the lack of dev's forsight. Don't min me- I'm venting.

I also have a lazy "d" key

thanks for helping me understand- For real.

[pallid bone]

Very cool

[astral badge]

do we know when its starting? my game says there isn't an expedition yet

[lilac oracle]

pc started yesterday

[astral badge]

oh PC only... its not live on playstation yet

[still slate]

The following is the seed of my recent rant- It's an opinion, not an accusation, and I'm speaking about personal preference, as gaming has totally changed from when I picked up Space Invaders...

I just see so many nonsensical things in this game, and I'm getting frustrated the game contradicts it's own lore. I understand I'm taking it too seriously, but I paid money to play an immersive game. I can't immerse myself when the events don't match the plot.

[lilac oracle]

if it helps in any way... imagine your account as your "main", regardless of how many save files you've got. they all contribute to your overall progress. and when there are silly choices like the pirate quest - where you either side with them and get one title or you turn on them and get another title - you can't do that with simply 1 character

[still slate]

guys I really, really appreciate you putting up with this- I just need to get it out to help me enjoy the game again.

[still slate]

I see that, but as I can't have alternate life saves, it's irratiional.

I mean, I can't wake up and go-m I'd be better off with my 3rd version of life today.

lets open that save so I don;t have to pay my bills today.

[lilac oracle]

wouldn't that be the day 😄

[still slate]

Oh, but my 2nd life is rich, maybe I'll play that life

Well, I'm simply saying the devs are asking me to accept that

[astral badge]

I just think of it as someone else going on an adventure and they send gifts to your main on completion

[still slate]

I think of that as playing my friend's life so he/she can contribute to me.

[pallid bone]

Well to be fair if it was the same save / main save then you'd just finish the expedition in an hour

[still slate]

so? the devs need to do some work then.

[pallid bone]

Aint no way you just said that

[still slate]

Im paid then to make it make sense and work out the kinks.

[astral badge]

speaking of, how soon do we get access to the anomaly on this expedition? :p previous expeditions can help newer ones depending on how soon we are allowed to access that.

[lilac oracle]

and have no pressure at all, you'd simply destroy everything. I found ou the hard way that with a b-class multitool and some a-class upgrades the new sentinel tanks are quite a challenge

[pallid bone]

as soon as you get a plane im pretty sure

[astral badge]

neat thanks, some of the earlier expeditions stopped that by not letting us until the end

[pallid bone]

This

[lilac oracle]

if you wanna breeze though it use the earlier expedition rewards. if you wanna immerse a bit into it... do it without

[pallid bone]

not to mention you wouldnt feel jack shit if you just bulldoze your way though the game

[lilac oracle]

yeah

[still slate]

If you spent all the time to make a person who can-

I mean thats why we did

[pallid bone]

First run with difficulty and grinding for oxygen and carbon was overal better than speedrunning to the ending

[lilac oracle]

oh don't worry, next time i find them they're getting it badly

[still slate]

so we could deal with anything easy

[pallid bone]

True, true

I understand

[still slate]

we put the time in to make it excusable to rip through it.

[pallid bone]

but the world we're kicked into is different

I.e. more chaos/ dissonance

more sentinels

more atlas interferences (that are close together)

not to mention the hundreds of communication machines

I mean if I came in there as a new player playing a new update with hundreds if not thousands of experienced players showing off their cosmetics and stuff I would be pissed and probably just stop playing the new update, cause it'll make me feel like I wont ever amount to anything if I didnt have any experience / "grind" beforehand
