[visual crane]

OMG

they have done the BEST fix in the world...

The freighter hangar colour now matches the rest!!!

[still slate]

oh- it's letting me again. It idn't show a prompt until I used the colsole again

[naive prism]

everyone stop what they're doing, go check your freighter (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[still slate]

it was just a thing without a "press x"

[naive prism]

oh

lol

ok so now i'm either stupid or unable to read; "ignite a convergence" gets completed by what?

[blazing rapids]

Community goal

we all gotta contribute to get the goal done, then that will complete it

[still slate]

So- the confusion was that the quest was not on all the times I tried to use the console

[tribal gull]

I wish the community quest allowed you to turn in more than 1 at a a time

[visual crane]

Huh I thought the Atlantid helmet visor is animated 😮

might be a bug

[still slate]

well, it doesn't help tthe game auto-switched my objective whilst I ran around

[blazing rapids]

Yea, that happens a lot and I really hate it

[naive prism]

wait, then how did people get the helmet already?

[still slate]

ty Nolan

[umbral forum]

Community goal is probably designed for people to not try to mass inject contributions.

So that everybody has a chance to feel like they are helping by the time they reach phase 5.

[blazing rapids]

I think it is a limitation of the engine. Whats his name, the chef that gives nanites, has the same restriction when giving multiple would be a much better option

[ashen shore]

Yo guys, one question about the new expedition, I saw a new species like a fully customizable mech, u can use it like in the main game aside the expedition?

[umbral forum]

Species? A mechanoceris?

[ashen shore]

The new robot guy u use in the expedition

[umbral forum]

A quadruped mechanical dog/horse.

The Exomech?

[ashen shore]

Yeah.. How u call it

[blazing rapids]

That was from a previous expedition wasn't it?

[umbral forum]

If it's the one you summon from the exomech bay, yes, it's been around for a while already.

[vale kayak]

Always wanted Sentinel Quad but shame I missed old expeditions

[tribal gull]

Anyone found any dissonant moons yet

Or low gravity dissonant planets

[blazing rapids]

one of the rendesvouz planets was

[ashen shore]

There

This guy

[vale kayak]

I love that head

[tribal gull]

I can give you an egg

I think I have one

[round crane]

ok so do i have to do the expedition twice in order to get both head pieces?

[umbral forum]

That's a player customization. You can claim it on every save once it's unlocked.

[round crane]

just need clarification

[blazing rapids]

check pinned messages

[vale kayak]

I thought trade can't be used but I'm not in MP sadly

[umbral forum]

I just saved before making a choice and reloaded to get the other.

[ashen shore]

Ohhhhh.. Soo it's not like a new whole race..

[vale kayak]

but thank you for your offer

[ashen shore]

But nice..

[blazing rapids]

Can you customize your body like that or is it just the head?

[umbral forum]

All body it seems, but those parts are locked behind the community milestone, it seems.

[tight dragon]

how many echo seeds do you need to finish the expedition?

[naive prism]

from the pin, "final core", i'm uncertain as to where that is in the progression, i though it meant the echo seeds, but that's not the case?

[tribal gull]

Woah which

Thats perfect for hunting echos

[ashen shore]

Ngl that's dope

Also I'm always hearing about how the expedition is somewhat cryptic and hard to decipher and complete the steps?

I mean.. The last exp was pretty straight forward

[umbral forum]

Just do the expedition and you'll find out if it's cryptic or not.

In the end it's just "get x, head to y, talk to z".

[blazing rapids]

The last step in this expedition was a little odd, and kinda left you three sheets to the wind to figure the last part

[tribal gull]

I need that randevous planet

🫵 give it to me

[tight dragon]

the sentience echo milestone is broken

[blazing rapids]

I am not sure I can, if someone has the glyphs of all the rendesvous planets I can check, sadly I did not do my usual placing of bases. I just remember one of them, like 3 or 4, I was able to fly about easily during a grav ztorm

[tribal gull]

Not anymore

Nah I can just make a jump to it

[fringe agate]

Glyphs for the planets are in the pins

[weak trench]

phase 5 not over?

[tight dragon]

nope

[tribal gull]

wont be over for a week I'd say

[blazing rapids]

10% into phase 1/5

[tribal gull]

is it out for console yet

When console comes in it will probably accelerate

[blazing rapids]

everythng but playstation from what I have heard

[tribal gull]

I've already put in over 80 echos myself

[opaque ferry]

how are we supposed to get quad servos if every planet has the corrupted sentinels on it

[blazing rapids]

Prolly up to 250 now, people keep dumping them on me in the nexus

I think I got one from a corrupted sentinel, the spider looking crawler

[tribal gull]

Go to an agressive sentinel planet

[opaque ferry]

what enemy do i need to kill to drop them?

[foggy steppe]

Is the expedition available on console yet

[tribal gull]

Quad sentinels

[blazing rapids]

Everything but playstation

[tribal gull]

the dogs that shoot laser beams

They appear at stage 3

if you go to an agressive sentinel planet and yoink a gravtino ball they will appear

[blazing rapids]

I never fought regular sentinels though, and I got it

[opaque ferry]

are you saying aggresive sentinel planets are guaranteed to have non-corupted sentinels

[tribal gull]

one of the milestones gives you one

[tribal gull]

any planet that isnt dissonant should

[blazing rapids]

oh, then do that, yea

phase 2 the living void milestone gives you one

[tight dragon]

um, let me phrase my question a little different

[blazing rapids]

Gather 256 atlantideum and the milestone will give you a quad servo

[dry thicket]

And I just realised the robotic heads you get as a reward are going to annoy me.

[tribal gull]

Okay I think I lied

[dry thicket]

In firstperson, you can see the outer layer of it

[tight dragon]

if i've submitted, like, 40 seeds and still don't have the milestone for it, do i need to redo the expedition

[dry thicket]

No

[tribal gull]

I remember getting a quad servo from a milestone but maybe I'm just that much of a warmonger and I went to obliterate some normal sentinels

[blazing rapids]

No, that is a community goal

[dry thicket]

It'll progress as people play. Expect it'll jump over the weekend.

[tight dragon]

thank you

wait except i do because i didn't save before doing the guy

[visual crane]

So does anyone else find the Discordant Jetpack Trail is NOT in the costumizer after obtaining?

the Atlantid Helmet visor is also unanimated

[still slate]

Hey Guess what? I mined a ton of copper, but it's not in my inventory.

sigh

[naive prism]

inventory full?

freighter/starship teleporter in range?

[umbral forum]

Quad Servos can be randomly found in autophages, but killing a quad is faster in case you sold the one that was a milestone reward.

[tribal gull]

I've been through all the randevous planets and none of them have low gravity from what I can see

[umbral forum]

Low gravity is that important?

[humble bramble]

The lush one has low gravity storms

[tribal gull]

OHH

truuuue

[naive prism]

..... did anyone try applying the helmet(s) yet in first person?

[visual crane]

did anyone get the discordan jetpack trail? I'm not seeing it in the costumizer

[umbral forum]

Did you claim it from Quicksilver-boi?

[visual crane]

yup

I got all the other stuff

[naive prism]

[tribal gull]

Which one was that

[still slate]

It's there. I can sell it, but I can't see it in my inventory

same with some geodes and crytals

[lime plume]

My game is crashing whenever I try to hyperdrive now.

Scroll down, you might have some slots in some odd spots.

[lament dust]

How do i complete phase 5?

[naive prism]

not yet.

[lament dust]

wym?

[still slate]

That was correct.

[lime plume]

Imma try with my other ship first before I send a report, it might just be the sentient ship I just got is being buggy.

[quick stag]

community locked

[lament dust]

oh

[naive prism]

we need to dunk seeds en masse

[potent bobcat]

Is it out on ps5?

[lime plume]

Alright, it finally worked.

[naive prism]

submitted \o/

[nova merlin]

Am I the only one? or do certain settlement's NPCs behave, well.... Creepy AF?

just standing in doorways, on stairs or next to windows looking inside

[zinc kestrel]

Do I need the sentience echo to complete the 6th milestone (the last before the optionals)

[oak kiln]

Yes

Technically yes

[zinc kestrel]

Alright! Thanks!

[oak kiln]

Get to waiting

[zinc kestrel]

Neat

[pine nimbus]

i've just found a relic gate in the expedition

do i take it???

like, it's a relic gate
but i'll be halfway across the galaxy from the expedition site

[nova merlin]

mark its location, then go hit up the station so you can portal back at a moments notice

[visual crane]

So what do you do about a missing reward you claimed

I submitted a bug report

[naive prism]

lol, i dunked 10 seeds and we went from 10% to 11% 🤓

[tribal gull]

if only it was that fast

[queen wave]

How do you dunk the seeds?

[karmic juniper]

I'm so ready for this to come out on play station so I could actually attempt an expedition

[crimson narwhal]

||one of the later milestones gives you a quad servo as reward||

[lime plume]

I am confused with what I am supposed to do for prayer 1. I jumped to the system, but its not showing me what is next.

[queen wave]

Go to the atlas station and talk to the atlas

[lime plume]

There is no atlas station.

[queen wave]

That’s odd

Are you in the correct system?

[lime plume]

Yes, I followed the path to the system, I did skip over a jump tho they wanted me to make on the way there. I fixed up a sentient ship, so I managed to make the jump in one shot.

[shy spoke]

Anyone if the down Sentinels ship don't give you a brain in the expedition or did I just get unlucky and bugged out?

[vale kayak]

honest I dont know...

[crimson narwhal]

i was seeing the same thing. the quest tip that popped up told me to start a fight with sentinel fighter ships to get a brain. I didn't pursue it further

[lime plume]

I wonder if me taking that ship bugged my save.

Restarted game and hoping that fixes it.

[hollow zealot]

Ngl I think this is my favourite expedition so far. I love finding new lore and clues and stuff

[shy spoke]

I went till level 4 but didn't get anything 😦

[mint glacier]

i at one point in the expedition had a bug where the trail to the atlas system was pointing in another direction with no marker anywhere over there... warping to some other system afterwards fixed it and gave me the correct system directions.

[torpid lion]

Hi everyone, sorry if this has been asked already but did anyone have problems accessing expedition 10? I tried yesterday and today on the ps5 and it just tells me there is currently no community expedition??

[fringe agate]

PlayStation doesn't have it yet

[torpid lion]

That would make sense then, any idea when it starts on ps? Everything I've seen days it's available on all platforms 🥺🥺

[ashen shore]

possibly a week, depending on how fast Sony approves the updates

[torpid lion]

Ugh

So sad

Thank you for replying

[mint glacier]

btw, ||is the final progress percentage on the expedition anywhere over 2% yet?||

[ashen shore]

np

console bros always have to wait unfortunately

[crimson narwhal]

as of an hour ago it was ||2% of total, 10% of part one||

[torpid lion]

Logging on now!!! 😍

[mint glacier]

ok, i am guessing that ||me giving about 13 seeds did nothing significant...||

[crimson narwhal]

every little bit helps

[mint glacier]

yeah, especially when each bit is very, very, very, very small...

[crimson narwhal]

i think i'm at about 40, some people say they're over 100

just depends on how much you care to grind it out

[mint glacier]

wow, i guess i should feel either very lazy or very insignificant considering those numbers...

[crimson narwhal]

not at all. i got lucky i was just going to do 19 but then somebody at anomaly passed a couple of stacks to me while i was looking at the quicksilver guy

[lime plume]

Instructions unclear, teleported and immediately got a free freighter, lol.

[rotund pecan]

I think I deposited like 10 total yesterday. I'm doing my part!

[nova merlin]

I had started a new save a couple days ago not knowing an expedition was coming, i've surpassed that save now in everything but my base... which i'll be starting work on tomorrow between hunting seeds

[lime plume]

I give up on this save, it's been acting screwy ever since I fixed that sentient ship.

[fervent otter]

So uh, what's the deal with Phase 5 optionals?

Anyone figured em out?

[craggy sun]

How do I hide spoiler text?

[fervent otter]

|||

on both ends

[craggy sun]

I remember that now, thanks

[fervent otter]

||spoiler||

sorry its ||

did a dum

[craggy sun]

||I wonder what happens when each part of the community progress is reached||

There we go!

[ashen shore]

Is anyone else’s game crashing on console when opening the galaxy map on the expedition ?

[wraith venture]

Oof that sounds painful. Try disabling multiplayer and reload the game to see if it helps. I also recommend reporting the crash to HG via their Zendesk. Include a note saying they have permission to access your save via the cloud (so they can use it to troubleshoot it if needed). I'll post a link below...

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[ashen shore]

Ok thanks

Well it fixed itself

[wraith venture]

Whew! I'm so glad

[sly lichen]

can someone please explain what expeditions are?

[south dune]

Expeditions are basically a limited time game mode where you start a save and complete several “phases” (sets of objectives) for account wide rewards :).

[terse dust]

What's a good planet for the sulfide this time around?

[sly lichen]

awesome thanks

[nocturne bramble]

When's the expedition because it's not showing up in community expeditions

[viral yacht]

Literally happening to me now...

[south dune]

What platform are you on? I believe playstation and switch players are still waiting?

[sinful slate]

is it imposible to complete the expedition because for the community thing?

[crimson narwhal]

there's a deep lake right next to one of the rendevous points .. maybe number 2 or 3, that has some just offshore

[terse dust]

Yeah, I just found one on the starting planet lol

[sinful slate]

Can i progress any further than this??

[oak kiln]

Not yet technically

[sinful slate]

every echo seed i do will just further the community progress right?

[oak kiln]

Yup

[sinful slate]

is it really just at 2 percent now?

[woeful prairie]

should I wait until polo is done to try to do anything else?

[vivid chasm]

It's still at 2% for me

[sinful slate]

same

[vivid chasm]

Thought I was the only one with that

[sinful slate]

watch me make it 3% right now

okay nvm nothing happened

ima wait untill people have donated more

[vivid chasm]

Same

[sinful slate]

then ill claim my robot cosmetic suit after

[vivid chasm]

You on phase 5?

[woeful prairie]

is there anything I need to know in terms of bugs, softlocks, or lockouts? I'm nearly done with phase 4

[analog relic]

Alrighty! I've made it to the community portion of the Expedition, I've got 15 or so Echoes that imma just slam into the Terminal. I'm doing my part!

[safe cosmos]

Where am I supposed to get the crystal suflide? For this step it requires 3 but there’s no water in sight.

[analog relic]

Keep looking until you find water! I just happen to park next to an ocean so I grabbed what I needed without realizing it.

[gloomy grove]

get em from armored clams

just uhh

dont die

[south dune]

No that’s living pearls :). Crystal sulfide comes from the hot vents, you find sometimes in the water, it shows up on your visor

[analog relic]

So is there any limit to how many Echo Seeds we can give in succession? I'm about to take a run to get more.

[quick stag]

I fed about 20 but theres just no response, felt like it was a waste

[prime imp]

I suppose that last and optional achievements are unlocked when it gets more levels with the echoes

[quick stag]

You can do them now but it doesnt give a reward

[prime imp]

They are still encripted for me

[quick stag]

Goto to the robot that polo built and interact but create manual save first if you want to revert

[prime imp]

I talk to the robot but it always says the same thing

[quick stag]

Oh ok maybe you r behind a few steps

[faint raven]

How do you get the construct set? Is it time gated or can I do the optional stuff to get it?

[charred finch]

in phase 5 "sentience echo" how many seeds do you have to bring to the prime terminal before it completes? kinda stuck here

[blazing rapids]

Community goal, not personal

[faint raven]

How do people have the set?!

[blazing rapids]

You mean the armor set? nobody has it yet

[faint raven]

I've seen 2 people with it.

[blazing rapids]

they have modded it in

[charred finch]

i can't finish phase 5..because part 3 isn't done

[blazing rapids]

no legit way yet

[blazing rapids]

by design

[charred finch]

oh no one has it done yet?

[faint raven]

What about the optional milestones?

[blazing rapids]

correct, it is a community goal

[charred finch]

so can't get to phase 6 until that is done?

[blazing rapids]

theyt were completeable but not claimable but I think that may have been patched

[blazing rapids]

There is no phase 6

[charred finch]

final phase

[faint raven]

I completed them but it only claimed one

[blazing rapids]

The final phase is just having the 5 prior phases completed

[blazing rapids]

Because it is a binary option. You can save before and unlock both, but it is a choice meant to have one result

[charred finch]

i can't get past phase 5 "seed of hope" is there where everyone is?

[blazing rapids]

yes, because it is a community quest

[charred finch]

ahh ok

[prime imp]

For me they are still encripted

[blazing rapids]

same for all

[prime imp]

Oh ok

[charred finch]

i got 3 still encripted

[blazing rapids]

yup

[charred finch]

think i get it now

[faint raven]

When talking to the construction, no matter what you get 2 milestones. One for your choice, the other for the fact you talked to it

[prime imp]

Same, the two optionals abd the last one

[charred finch]

yeh same

[tribal iris]

so, how do you get both helmets from the construct again?

[faint raven]

Okay so I'm not gonna save doing those milestones cause I get a feeling when they do count, it'll break your expedition

[blazing rapids]

I don't think we were meant to complete the optional quest yet. The locked quest says cause an ignition and I have a locked quest called ignition that says it is completed.

I think they were meant to unlock with the community quest milestones but something was coded wrong

[tribal iris]

Can I just save my restore point to get both helmets or do I have to use the actual save point

[ashen shore]

How many echo seeds do I need to put into the simulation to beat sentience echo?

[tribal iris]

It's a community effort

[ashen shore]

Oh

Im dumb

Really dumb

So nobody has the rewards yet?

[tribal iris]

No, I was confused too

No one has the construct set but some people have the helmets

[analog relic]

No one should have the rewards, legit yet. The body customization parts, I mean.

[ashen shore]

Ok

Which one means I get the atlantid helmet

[tribal iris]

apparently you can get both

[ashen shore]

But do I get it?

[tribal iris]

I think so yeahg

*yeah

[ashen shore]

Nice

[lean locust]

can you finish the expedition if the ||"ignite a convergence|| milestone isnt finished?

[tribal iris]

No

you have to finish all non-optional ones

[lean locust]

so we just have to wait until the community mission is fully done?

[ashen shore]

I just uploaded 13 seeds

[tribal iris]

Sadly, yes

[cold tulip]

Is there anything important i need to know before i get started? 😁

[ashen shore]

Is it at 13%?

[tribal iris]

It's been at 13% for a while

[lean locust]

sorry, just to clarify does that mean we cant get the customization options unless the community mission gets finished?

[prime imp]

I cant find the new jetpack tail at customization, is it only with the robotic body?

[analog relic]

Could you imagine if only PC players were still the only ones up and doing this? Now we have PC and Xbox but man we could use the PlayStations fellas's help too! Darn it Sony!

[tribal iris]

You can get the helmets, but again, you cannot get the body parts

[ashen shore]

I got the atlantid helmet

Yeahhhhh

[lean locust]

gotcha, thank you for clarifying!

[analog relic]

I haven't unlocked the two hidden milestones yet, I thought they were bugged or something like that?

[prime imp]

Same

[analog relic]

I didn't want to test my luck given I'm at the end, trying to help the community with grabbing Echoes!

[ashen shore]

Singularity is a pretty good expedition tbh

Underrated

[prime imp]

Yeah, I'm really loving it

[ashen shore]

The rewards are really cool too

[prisma lantern]

phew, I was so worried that I was the only one with the problem

[prime imp]

The neutron canon with the ugrades is awesome

[prime imp]

I could get all until the last encrypted one and the optionals

I just selected the Atlas one and went to talk to them

[prisma lantern]

All I have to do now is just keep donating the echo seed?

I already gave him 15 seeds, how much more does he need?

[radiant wing]

It's really discouraging... it's been stuck that way for a while

it's a community mission and everyone is supposed to contribute

but it doesn't seem to respond to spikes at all, it's been stuck at 2% and I've been at the anomaly for a while handing out dupped seeds like candy

[prime imp]

The concept of communityness is nice as always, but I think is gonna be crazy hard

[radiant wing]

I think it is just time limited and it doesn't matter how many we actually do

Someone in the past has graphed community mission progress over time (for the quick silver missions) and it looked way to constant to be real progress

I find it so irritating!!!!

[prisma lantern]

What then is the point of doing it at all?

[radiant wing]

Exactly. Doesn't seem like it, but I was hoping to prove it wrong

I just wanted to bump it 1%...

[prime imp]

Also PS players still cant contribute

[prisma lantern]

How long does the expedition end? In five weeks?

[radiant wing]

Yeah, I bet we'll get that milestone in about 3 weeks

that's what happened on other expeditions like this

[gentle coral]

My game keeps crashing after assembling the head and heading off the planet to open gal map

I'm on my 5th try

[radiant wing]

They should only use these for optional missions not the ones that keep you from getting the main rewards

[radiant wing]

Try turning off multiplayer, it helps with many bugs

[prisma lantern]

Then I will go into the game in 2 weeks and 6 days, but for now I will say goodbye to the game from my disk

Seriously, I downloaded the game again for this expedition, and here it is...

[queen wave]

I’m hyped about the robot heads

[prisma lantern]

Me too, for robot bodies too

Why do we even have to load one echo seed at a time? What if I have 15 of them??? Why can't I download all the seeds at once?

[prime imp]

I was thinking the same thing

[analog relic]

This is just another "Gotta put em in one at a time!"

[faint raven]

Realistically will the community even pull through? There's a ton, and it's super boring

[lyric roost]

For the robot bodies? Absolutely

Besides, duping exists

[faint raven]

I'm more worried about the fact you can only deposit one at a time. So people have to sit there for like 20 minutes if they have a ton

[lyric roost]

People did it for cooking

For the nanites

[lime plume]

Finally figured out what I did wrong.

[woeful wyvern]

Whats the new robots called? Is there a name for their race (if they are a race)?

[safe cosmos]

Well, got to the second to last phase and the encrypted stuff.

[queen wave]

I feel like they’ll be called constructs (if they’re actually a race)

[woeful wyvern]

Ok

[queen wave]

Though autophages could be brought in as an actual race

Rather than a head and hand

[woeful wyvern]

Yes

I thought they fell under aerons but idk

[hidden ether]

Well, I've turned in 110 echo seeds

I think I've done my part

heading back to my survival save until that milestone is done

[ashen shore]

Anyone understands what to do on these expeditions? Like this is my first time playing them and im kinda confused...

[hidden ether]

Expeditions are temporary game modes that either focus on telling a narrative within the No Man's Sky universe, and/or providing alternative gameplay elements. Some are much easier than the main game, and others are harder

players can track their progress in the expedition my viewing the "Expedition" tab in the menu

expeditions are divided into 5 phases, each of which has 6-8 milestones that must be completed

[ashen shore]

Alright

[hidden ether]

completing a phase of a milestone unlocks a reward that can be accessed in all save files

[ashen shore]

How long does it last to complete whole expedition?

[hidden ether]

a whole expedition can usually be completed with a day of focused gameplay, though concessions may have to be made for your personal schedule and free time

this current expedition contains a milestone that's based on community progress, so the ability to complete this expedition is currently locked behind the collective effort of the whole playerbase

[ashen shore]

I see

[warped abyss]

Any news on ps5 or still nada?

No pun intended w/nada lol

[ashen shore]

I tried playing it by myself abit but got stuck on first planet so i might restart whole expedition, tho i wish there was some kind of guide that explains wich quest should i do the first or just alittle overview or something as for me the most confusing part is starting out as i Mostly end up wanderint around lol

[blazing rapids]

Did they change the freighter fight time for this expedition? My play time is 13 hours and I swear I had at least 5 freighter fights

[hidden ether]

If you do the milestones in order, then that will usually act as a guide for what you should be doing

[ashen shore]

Alright thanks

So its everything from the expedition menu right

[hidden ether]

It's possible to encounter freighter fights more than normal in expeditions, since it's possible for other players to trigger a freighter attack on warping into a system and not seeing the encounter through

[blazing rapids]

Make sure and have expedition milestones and the applicable quest log selected, many parts of the expedition will not proceed correctly unless they are the active mission and quest log

[hidden ether]

so some of the freighter fights may have been yours, but others may have been other players

[zenith iris]

I’m on the 5th phase and I don’t know what to do now I got the Atlantid reactor done and spoke with the atlas

[hidden ether]

I actually encountered this in expedition 2, when I warped into a system and found an S-class capital freighter as my first space battle

[blazing rapids]

hunt and submit echos

[hidden ether]

currently locked behind a community milestone

[zenith iris]

@hidden ether thanks bc if the milestone is done I finish the expedition

[blazing rapids]

I had something like this happen in this expedition. The fight got too close to the freigher and I tagged the cargo pods too many times, so my next jump triggered the fight again and it was a stubby S class

[hidden ether]

Yeah

I mean, I know that space battle had to be someone else's

Because your first space battle on a save is never a capital freighter

[zenith iris]

So how long would it take for the milestone to be finished?

[rain oar]

How hard is this expedition?

[zenith iris]

It’s quite easy

I’m already done just waiting for the milestone to finish

[rain oar]

What milestone?

[zenith iris]

Something to do with echoes

Some new thing

[rain oar]

😲

Okay

[zenith iris]

Yea hope it goes well for you

[rain oar]

Okay thanks. I will start soon.

Maybe tomorrow

[south dune]

Startin’ mine now lets do ittt

[nimble carbon]

Hmm, I seem to be having a spot of trouble with Prayer II : ||Following the Expedition Route, I've come to a planet that has for example a base with "Pilgramage 3 Parking". The Galactic Map and Teleporter Destination of the current system Station both show the icon for Expedition quests. If I switch Galactic Map to "Show Altas Interface" it takes me somewhere else instead.|| Is this a known bug? And should I just go somewhere else for this phase?

[dark cliff]

If an expedition gives you a ship like some past ones do they get unlocked for all saves? Like donfuture saves start with a ship unlocked like the speeder?

Or do you get them from the anomoly?

[woeful wyvern]

I think you can claim them on any save in anomaly after you got it on the expedition

[humble bramble]

So basically once I've forged the final atlas seed and done the fifth pilgrimage I can't do anything except wait?

Unless I'm supposed to unlock the encrypted milestone in phase 5 that is required?

[honest inlet]

Yeah, we have to wait a few weeks for it to naturally finish or get it early if everyone grinds an absurd amount

[dapper stag]

are the new helmets locked behind the community event?

[rotund belfry]

i'm following a ship with 3 blue triangle spinning around it...it has green trails but a life bar like pirates...what is it?...sorry i haven't played in a while...

[sharp fjord]

waiting wont work if everyone just waits ... help get echo seeds

when you got the time

[terse dust]

Pretty sure that's an ally ship, but i'm not sure

You can shoot it and make it mad ig

[nimble carbon]

Welp, pursuing the Atlas path instead of the Expedition Route appears to have worked (despite the wording of the Phase text prompt) for Prayer II

[cursive orchid]

What's the % at now?

[twilit hound]

For this expedition, what system has Altas in it?? Not showing on my galaxy map...

[nimble carbon]

Which time are you doing it? Prayer I, II, etc.?

[sharp hedge]

I have done almost all of Phase 5, and I am confused on how to proceed after I made the seed of hope

No one?

I've made a bunch of Sentience Echoes and turned them in at what point does the next milestone after Seed of Hope decrypt?

[twilit moss]

It seems that the Sentience Echo community milestone will unlock the rest, as it has phases. Just a theory though, I just started it today

[sharp hedge]

well that would make sense for the optionals, but not the one right after Seed of Hope

BUT, thank you

[spiral meadow]

whens the next expedition?

[winged palm]

no one knows yet

[spiral meadow]

pain

[rotund pecan]

I just spent like an hour or so grinding 100 some seeds. I just got done depositing them all for like an extra 15 minutes one by one, and the tier 1 % didn't even go up. I'm done. GL guys.

[strange zinc]

Does giving the Seed give you the Red Robot Head, and Atlantid react gives the purple, right?

[sharp hedge]

See I also did a bunch of them and not one thing moved. And I couldn't get the next milestone after Seed of Hope to decrypt, which is lame

[strange zinc]

I mean on the bright side there is SOME progress

[sharp hedge]

How did you get that far? I can't get past Seed of Hope, which I made

[rotund pecan]

1% woo

[honest inlet]

The heads are terrifying looking when they're on the normal bodies

[sharp hedge]

Mine shows only 14%

[strange zinc]

also this

[sharp hedge]

How did you get it? I am not able to do the next part after Seed of Hope

[dim barn]

Hmmm, these echo collectives are filling up inventory, good to sell?

[strange zinc]

you give the items to the construct I think

[rotund pecan]

so it DID do something 🤔

[sharp hedge]

what items? The page said to take it to the terminal, noty the construct

so all my sentient echoes have gone to that at the anomoly

[honest inlet]

No idea, I have these done; logged in not 20mins ago to change my look and the options for the heads are avalible; they're head options inside the Anomaly race.

[shy dagger]

hey, i am at the step where i need to talk to nada. the navigator is pointing to a blue star, do i have to go there?

[rotund pecan]

lol i made a save that I can reload to get the 100 seeds back. who wants some?

[sharp hedge]

I'll check that out but you are at the same point I am

[strange zinc]

if you look at the quicksilver Synth Companion, you can see the 2 head, and they mention giving the construct the seed/Atlantid reactor which gives you the red/purple head

[analog relic]

I've heard you get both heads from the two optional missions but I've also heard they were bugged then fixed. Don't know how true that is on Console, as anyone gotten those yet?

[sharp hedge]

OHHHHHh

so I can give either of those to the construct and get the final helmet

[shy dagger]

?

[strange zinc]

you should... talk to nada?

[shy dagger]

yeah, after that she sent me some cords

[strange zinc]

then you should go to them

[shy dagger]

and they point to a star you can get to only with the highest engine

[strange zinc]

oh, I see your point

that is unfortunate

[shy dagger]

do i have to go there or if i go to a nearby star it makes me skip that one?

[rotund pecan]

how do i turn in the milestone if it's encrypted?

[dim barn]

@shy dagger Try to port to a different system far away, and reset the mission

[sharp hedge]

are you on Prayer IV by chance?

[sharp hedge]

||I do not have the option of giving the construct the seed or reactor||

[strange zinc]

||you need to grabb the echo collective from Nada's terminal first to calm it down||

[sharp hedge]

and also, is the seeds of echoes tied to a single player, as in your game, or a community? Because mine only says 3

[strange zinc]

Comunity

[sharp hedge]

||Echo Collective? How the hell do i get that?||

[sharp hedge]

why is everyone have different numbers? is it indicative of whether you are PC, XBox or Switch?

[strange zinc]

I literally told you

[sharp hedge]

||So not the Terminal Prime?||

[strange zinc]

yes that

[sharp hedge]

It doesn't give me that option

[dim barn]

Anythign else we do with these "Echo Collective" items? They don't stack, and if they aren't worth keeping, I'll just sell

[sharp hedge]

Well this is just frustrating. I cannot get tyhe sixth milestone on Phase 5 to decrypt

[dim barn]

There is post in the nms-announcements channel with the patch notes about it being stuck until the hoal is met for people that had finished part of it early

[sharp hedge]

so in other words we have to wait for people to catch up on a part that isn't relevant to having everyone at?

[sharp hedge]

I mean I get it for the two optional ones, but not for the sixth one which is right after the Seed of Hope, which just makes it a downer for those of us able to get it done

[dim barn]

Not sure.. Sorry I coudln't help at all

[sharp hedge]

No problem. It isn't your fault, and I am quite surprised that no one from HG can give us any info on why...why is the sixth one stuck. Anyway, I am off to play another game until they fix that, as I have spent a few hours grinding for Sentience Echoes

Nothing more frustrating that having an end you cannot complete

[sly pond]

HG doesnt bother to talk, they just do - after launch, pretty much everyone agrees its better this way. Best thing anyone can do to help is to zendesk issues they run into so HG has the info they need on what needs attn

[sharp hedge]

Yeah well not talking is equally bad, but...shrugs...whatevs\

[tight dragon]

yeah that happened to me too

[sharp hedge]

If you're talking about Phase 5 milestone six, welcome to the club

[tight dragon]

ok so i didn't have to redo the entire expedtion

[keen musk]

ah so, no progression past this until community milestone is reached, right?

[sharp hedge]

If you are talking about Phase 5 Milestone 6, welcome to the club

[sharp hedge]

Apparently

[ashen shore]

Spoiler, but we (I) assume so

[keen musk]

i just turned in like 50 and it didnt budge at all

[sharp hedge]

Nope

Anyhoot...you asll have fun....I am off!

[tight dragon]

k bye

[ashen shore]

5 week long expedition we will just have to poke around and do our part but I’m sure we’ll get there

[analog relic]

I've put in around 60+ Echoes today, small but I'm doing my part to move that bar just a single percent more!

[bold yacht]

Anybody know how to get the Inverted Mirrors? I have visited several dissonant planets and haven't see a single one of those things that drop them.

[woeful wyvern]

Are you in an uncharted system?

[bold yacht]

No

[woeful wyvern]

Are all those planets very mountainous?

[bold yacht]

yes

[woeful wyvern]

Thats your problem unfortunately

Its weird but it seems to make them spawn extremely rarely

[dim barn]

@analog relic What do you do with all the Echo Collectives?

[bold yacht]

Aww darn I see

[dim barn]

I've asked a few times, still don't know if they are safe to sell

[analog relic]

On a Dissonant planet, on your visor look for "Dissonance Resonators" they're found (in my experience) on relatively flat terrain. By destroying these, you'll get an Inverted Mirror, however the Sentinels will be alerted, much like taking a Gravtino Ball.

[bold yacht]

Yeah I know what to look for, but just haven't seen a single one on several of these dissonant planets.

Probably cause they're too mountainous

as Blob mentioned

[analog relic]

Try going back to the very first planet, where we all started that's where I found all of my Dissonance related items.

[bold yacht]

ok thank you

[analog relic]

Watch out though, the larger spider enemy variant is crawling around and will jump you.

Funny Story: I actually got my first Inverted Mirror by long ranging it with my Mining Beam, destroyed it and ran. I wasn't fighting multiple corrupted sentinels and a spider that was running at me.

[cold tulip]

When do i unlock the base computer?

[frank scaffold]

how's the %

[strange zinc]

slow going

[strange zinc]

here

[supple walrus]

Never found one of these underground before.

[frank scaffold]

also, if anyone wants to claim the helm in the expedition if you spoke too early, you can get it in the QS store

it will be available

[frank scaffold]

at least we're at 3%

[strange zinc]

right? Like it's no longer 1%, so we ARE doing stuff

[rotund pecan]

Protip: reloading the save you made when you first landed in the nexus gives you your quicksilver back if you spent any, and the unlock you spent the quicksilver on before becomes free.

[frank scaffold]

yes, and the first phase is at 15%

[frank scaffold]

i got everything free, somehow

probs the thing you described was made accidentally

[twilit hound]

WHY is the analysys visor not working on resonant planet now for last part...?

[strange zinc]

what part?

like what part isn't working I mean

[twilit hound]

sentience echo

[strange zinc]

do you have the resonance amplifier

[twilit hound]

location service unavailable on planet is the reading i get

its same planet i got my last one on

[strange zinc]

it has to be a discordant planet

[twilit hound]

its same planet i got my last one on

[strange zinc]

you have to have the resonance amplifier, first off

[twilit hound]

...

read last message again

i already got one on this planet on previous mission, with the visor

[strange zinc]

ok, but do you have the resonance amplifier? because you NEED it to continue finding them

[twilit hound]

yes, as i mentioned

[strange zinc]

You keep just saying visor so idk if you did

[twilit hound]

that help?

[strange zinc]

ok... wait are you in targetr sweep mode?

[twilit hound]

sure is

hence the reading i got

[strange zinc]

lmao get out of there, you'll see an icon that looks like the shard icon but with a " ! " above it

[twilit hound]

i obtained it in this mode previously

its the only other one there is

[strange zinc]

yes that

[twilit hound]

the other is sweep mode

[twilit hound]

only 2 options

[strange zinc]

see?

[twilit hound]

idk how you get that

first one i found was on sweep mode

i see none on analysis

[strange zinc]

are you on a discordant planted or whatever

[twilit hound]

yes

[strange zinc]

try it on one of the checkpoint worlds just to see

[twilit hound]

why cant i unlock the others?

[strange zinc]

comunity goal

[twilit hound]

.... so the expedition is impossible to complete without waiting days/weeks for the community???

[strange zinc]

kinda yeah : /

[twilit hound]

are you shitting me

all that time wasted rushing it so i can move on

this game

[cold tulip]

How do you unlock the glyphs?

[strange zinc]

wdym?

[cold tulip]

For the portals

[woeful wyvern]

Is that expedition related?

[strange zinc]

there's something in phase 5 that gives you the portal set

[cold tulip]

Thanks

[fervent patrol]

how do i ensure that the sentinels on the planet im on will actually have more Corrupted Sentinels

cause on all the Dissonant planets im on

normal sentinels are more common

and when i killing the corrupted ones and all

and the waves start coming

its normal sentinels that come not corrupted ones

[woeful wyvern]

Thats strange thats not really how its supposed to work

Are you in an uncharted system?

[plucky bramble]

how do you get the resonance amplifier

[dim barn]

It's a blueprint you get for a MultiTool tech

Not something you craft in inventory, if that's what you mean

[little sapphire]

Are the expedition rewards worth it

[woeful wyvern]

If you are obsessed with cosmetics yes

[little sapphire]

I am so that's good to know

Thanks

Is it for normal?

[worldly cargo]

So how many seeds does it take to satisfy the sentience echo milestone?

[woeful wyvern]

The default settings are equivalent to normal I think

[dim barn]

Kinda like normal QS reward stuff, will take the community a long while to finish it up

[little sapphire]

Alright thanks

[woeful wyvern]

Np

[frank scaffold]

maybe 100000

not so sure, maybe it is somewhere in the game files

[worldly cargo]

What

So no one has phase 5 done?

[frank scaffold]

community goal

if you wanted the helm early, you needed to talk to the construct before the patch and then collect in the expedition store since the expedition page doesn't allow

[worldly cargo]

I have the helm

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing

i'm talking about phase 5 milestone 3 called "sentience echo"

[grim fossil]

Why do people still think it’s helpful to place a “RV 1” base that’s over 10k u away from the actual RV

Because it’s not helpful actually very annoying

[worldly cargo]

because they're not trying to be helpful

[grim fossil]

Or they forgor how to use 🧠

[worldly cargo]

I know I often forgor bren

[grim fossil]

I always forgor

Ok i leave before spoils

[frank scaffold]

anybody wants a surprise?

[lime plume]

Making so much money scrapping these sentient ships.

What happens after an expedition finishes anyways? Does the character get deleted, or converted into something like a normal game file?

[vivid stream]

so i sent 10 echo seeds, nothing happened on 3rd progress on phase 5

[lime plume]

It's a community event supposedly.

[worldly cargo]

I found a spot that spawns 4 echoes

[vivid stream]

mine got 2

[dry escarp]

how is community quest going? on what %are we on?

[dry escarp]

it gets converted into a normal game file

[vivid stream]

we got 16%

[lime plume]

Ah, thanks.

[dry escarp]

so we have a posibility of reaching this 19% mark today (UTC)

[vivid stream]

i guess i gotta take some rest and check for progress

every some hours

[hidden ether]

We're almost 19% of the way to being 20% done!

[worldly cargo]

so is everyone using the braindead prime?

[modest garnet]

sentience echo isn't bugged just really slow?

[frank scaffold]

yes

[worldly cargo]

yeah it's a community mission so it's progressed slightly by everyone's contribution

[modest garnet]

well then.

time to help out

[frank scaffold]

so. if anyone who talked to the construct before the patch and got the bugged milestone, you need to head down to the QS shop > expedition rewards and collect the helm you got for talking to the construct

[dry escarp]

if i done the bugged milestone but didnt collect it will i still be able to collect the headpiece?

[frank scaffold]

yes, in any save

the choice counts as its own milestone

[dry escarp]

both headpieces or only the one that i chose?

[frank scaffold]

if you saved before the choosing and reload the save point, you can get bothe heads in one expo

[worldly cargo]

when is the choice?

[frank scaffold]

last encrypted milestones in phase 5

[worldly cargo]

ah

[frank scaffold]

the milestones are both optional because after the choice, other one won't be able to be completed

[worldly cargo]

so when was the choise

choice*

is it the first thing you put in terminal prime?

like how do you get the not sentient echo mission

is it just if you build the reactor first or the seed first?

[frank scaffold]

you will approach the construct after you planted the echo seed with atlantid reactor and seed of hope, and after that you have a choice to plant either the reactor or the seed

[dry escarp]

oh, i only get the headpiece, no other part of the autophage body

[frank scaffold]

for now

if you talked to the construct again before the patch

[worldly cargo]

so if you chose the seed of hope, are you still farming echo seeds or is it something else?

[silent hollow]

Potentially dumb question: how do I start the expedition stuff? Playing on PS4. It tells me there's no community expedition is available

[vital spire]

So we have to do a manual save before we choose?

[pallid bone]

!faq-update @silent hollow

[unkempt kraken]

@silent hollow 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.

• General gameplay & technical help? » #nms-questions
• Run !Faq-Multiplayer in #bot-spam for tips

[pallid bone]

Also

theres a bug starting the echo seed quest

:D

[vital spire]

It takes a few days for it to come to you guys if I remember correctly

[pallid bone]

Time to redo another save

[silent hollow]

Damn. Alright then

[worldly cargo]

not out for playstation yet

[hidden ether]

what's the bug and how did you trigger it?

[pallid bone]

After giving the echo seed to the construct

and getting the schematic for the echo scanner

the next quest wont start

[worldly cargo]

did you build the scanner?

[hidden ether]

Or are you referring to the next quest being a community milestone and mistaking it for being unable to start?'

[prime imp]

Stupid question: How do you do a manual save?

[vital spire]

Do you know those save things you can craft?

[hidden ether]

use a save point

[vital spire]

Yeah that's a manual save point

[prime imp]

OH YEAH I FORGOT ABOUT THEM THX

[vital spire]

Np

[prime imp]

I was only thibking about the automatic one

[worldly cargo]

what are the conditions for the seeds to respawn? I've got a base at a marker with 4 seeds but I can't figure out what makes them respawn

[supple walrus]

Why so smol compared to the pic on the update site?

[worldly cargo]

you picked the smol ending lol

[supple walrus]

there was a choice?

I didn't see any either/or sort of choice to pick in any of the milestones steps

[worldly cargo]

I didn't notice it either but apparently it's when you go to install the thing into it you can choose either the reactor or the seed of hope I hink

[supple walrus]

I only saw the seed option. I installed the seed

[worldly cargo]

I didn't notice a choice either I'm just going by what other people said

the echo see or the seed of hope

?

excuse my spelling it's late here lol

[supple walrus]

i even built the reactor

[worldly cargo]

yeah so my experience was the same as yours

do you have the sentient echo mission or the other one?

[modern harness]

how to faecium?

[supple walrus]

i just bought mordite at a vendor and refined it

[modern harness]

no way

[worldly cargo]

or you can feed animals and steal ther pewps

faecium is poo

[supple walrus]

Mordite <=> faecium are 1:1 refinement both ways

[modern harness]

i cant get them too pooo

[dry escarp]

or get some faecium and refine it with oxygen

[supple walrus]

this is what I got

[dry escarp]

faecium +oxygen = 3 faecium

[dry escarp]

they arent, they are refined 3:1 both ways

[worldly cargo]

nah it's nah it's 3 mordite for 1 faecium and 3 fauecium for 2 mordite

[supple walrus]

oh, well i never noticed locing any amount either way

[worldly cargo]

oh so you're not there yet

[supple walrus]

wow, this is one hell of a reward for new players who choose to use this as a new save.

[supple walrus]

👀 wait what?

[brave dome]

Anyone having issues with Igniting an echo? phase 5?

[worldly cargo]

community mission select it and check your log

that is to say select it in the expedition screen and then check the log for overall progress

[brave dome]

jesus we have to wait for people? it's at 17% lol

[worldly cargo]

yeah that's how it be

[supple walrus]

yeah, is the community goal required for personal completion of hte expedition?

so much for "convert your save early if you've finished the expedition" option that they added a few expeditions ago.

[brave dome]

must be. cause the rest of the milestones are encrypted

[supple walrus]

not just the optional milestones?

[supple walrus]

If that's the case, I'll probably complete everything I can on my own and then put the game down for a few weeks until the community goal is finished.

[brave dome]

exactly my thoughts

[fervent patrol]

you guys got any spare echo seeds

like

every point i see

its all blanks

[lone echo]

They fixed that like yesterday
Ignition was achievable before the community milestone but couldn't be collected

[fervent patrol]

ah wait

ignition is a community goal

ah damn

[brave dome]

yep, sit around and wait a few weeks lol

[supple walrus]

I think they overestimate how many people will be willing to grind sentience echos considering how they're obtained and that we can only turn in one at a time. even duping won't be worth it because of how tedious turn ins would be.

[fervent patrol]

sigh

[modest garnet]

I guess it's tied to the expedition because inside Terminal Prime I found this hologram guy chilling

[lone echo]

That's not an expedition thing

[supple walrus]

~~oh, so that's where the datamined npc will come into play. ~~ I thought that was a different NPC. Nevermind. ||https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/143ogyv/arg_thread_things_i_found_sofar||

[modest garnet]

it's not about the expedition yea

[lone echo]

Main quest

[supple walrus]

wait... that's artemis?

[modest garnet]

should I delete that?...

[supple walrus]

why is her character model in the pillar?

[lone echo]

Did you play the main quest through?

[modest garnet]

I did, but I don't think it's artemis?

[lone echo]

||It's there if you decide to keep her soul in a simulation||

[modest garnet]

the suit it's blue colored

[supple walrus]

anyone who hasn't played main quest but played the expedition will probably get the big twist spoiled

[supple walrus]

I thought it was ||the NPC from this datamine||

[lone echo]

Man i want that robe

[modest garnet]

it looks like an artemis model but recolored in red and blue tones

[supple walrus]

I wonder if this is leading to ||us bringing them back in a robot body?||

[worldly cargo]

nahhh this is going to be a whole new race is my bet

[supple walrus]

of course that would mean canonizing one of the two outcomes you can choose at the end of the main quest

[modest garnet]

kinda like a pirate takeover of existing dissonant systems?

[supple walrus]

dang... i probably shouldn't have sold those 3 gravatino balls I got earlier

[lone echo]

Just yoink some on corrupted plantes and run

[vivid stream]

there are abundant, I just left those balls in inventory

i collected those to spawn sentinels as a requirement to kill off at least 18

[weak trench]

same

whats with the new type of sentinel

which moves underground

very annoying

[vivid stream]

corrupted sentinels, but with purple crystals

[lone echo]

There aren't any that go underground
Some go invisible

[supple walrus]

considering that the space station cores react with a unique message when fed atlantideum and the harmonic camps are centered around broken down space station cores, I think this story line they started in Interceptor is going to lead to ||the introduction of those new space stations that got datamined. and maybe even lead to the longstanding request for player owned stations.||

[weak trench]

nah

what will be the advantage of owning space stations?

[lone echo]

I hope we'll start seeing some purple atlas stations

[vivid stream]

mine didn't have any problem, I just endured killing off sentinels up to five star rating, but yeah neutron cannon is sorta shotgun that can be nice for smashing robo spideys

[frank scaffold]

Some milestone gives them

[supple walrus]

more base building opportunities and perhaps even a cut of profits from galactic trade terminal? Also, just "Rule of Cool" and all that.

[supple walrus]

I know, those are the one's I sold

[lone echo]

Being a system lord sounds cool

[vivid stream]

i thought i was about to died until i noticed those weakness to them.

[woeful wyvern]

They also buffed the neutron cannon this update

[devout sedge]

Does anyone here have a fix for prayer 1 task i cant find the renddezvous 1 i tride teleporting to a different galaxy and back took the game offline and no matter what i do the marker just wont show up i have em both markes journal and expedition menu

[vivid stream]

yeah no wonder how it was bit easier to kill off those and wait, that's normal mode. I did played in survival mode before expedition.

[lone echo]

Ah so that's why they just give you a set of that

[woeful wyvern]

Yup lol

[modern harness]

lmao please someone help me get some Mordite or faecium

like where?!?!?!

[tawdry vector]

If you pick the mission under log, do you then have an Expedition route in your galaxy map?

[devout sedge]

Yes had the route and went there

[vivid stream]

anyways, all i have to do is to take a break for few days after completing 4 of 5 phases, just two milestones is something would take bit longer on phase 5

[lone echo]

Kill or feed animals

[devout sedge]

Im in the galaxy it says but marker wont show landed on every planet and scanned and nothing

[supple walrus]

you mean solar system?

expedition is only in a single galaxy

[frank scaffold]

If kill, then you need to refine mordite with a 3:1 ratio

[tawdry vector]

It's there. Make sure there isn't another mission taking over in log. Happens for me some times. resque missions etc.

[vivid stream]

i tried both, but i killed off flying animals which are abundant in that irradiative planet, only underground animals spawn yet rarely.

[devout sedge]

Yea sorry system is what i meant

[vivid stream]

killing off animals is only quick solution, instead of letting animal poop after feeding would take longer

[devout sedge]

Yea only other one I have is dreams of the deep and i dont have it selected

[tawdry vector]

Rendevouz point are fixed planets.

[frank scaffold]

You could also dupe the thing, yk

[vivid stream]

a planet with rendezvous 4 has predominantly flying creatures, no one spawn land animals alongside underground variants.

[tawdry vector]

Try activate another task in your phase and then the rendevouz point again in expedition menu.

[vivid stream]

i just have no choice but to quick farm at least 300 mords

[supple walrus]

I just hit up traders and system markets until I found some mordite. bought a full stack and refined it.

[vivid stream]

i don't have much time to establish base unless if it was required from previous expeditions afaik

[split moat]

No update on PS ?

[woeful wyvern]

Find a swampy planet which will have mordite or faecium mineral deposits

[tawdry vector]

But if you have the right system, with the rendevouz logo at the galaxy map, just look for some communation stations. People tend to place a sh*tbucket of those at the points

[supple walrus]

this must tie into the main story somehow

[devout sedge]

Also did that nvm I misread the mission and had to select atlas path should be good now but ty for the help

[supple walrus]

Hex to Text: "what is this place"

[frank scaffold]

Hold on, need to find it

[vivid stream]

wait, isn't that product that i refined from tedious trading, farming and gas extracting? ||it requires farming cactus flesh, gamma root, faecium, solanium, frost crystal, nitrogen, condensed carbon (by combining both mordite and faecium in twin refiner from farming) and buying aronium, magno gold and grantine from trade terminal||

[supple walrus]

Oh I'm familiar. I've got a 400+ hours save where I'm always capped on Units/Nanites. I just give that stuff away at the anomaly.

[worldly cargo]

You can craft the things you said you have to buy but yes, stasis devices and fusion igniters are the two items at the top of the crafting tree

[vivid stream]

well let's stick to expedition talk btw

that's my only problem for 3rd milestone on phase five, i guess i have to take a break until it is done

or maybe spend an hour of farming echo seeds until 100 pcs

[finite rover]

god. forgot how to get a list of glyphs here

[vivid stream]

always have been, i already experienced from previous expeditions

starting from Blighted

my first and only completed expedition, and i did completed latter three too

three of those were completed in over 6 hours, polestar got me more than 4 hours

this current expedition might discourage us from speed running

i remember i speed run any of those expeditions starting from Blighted

[supple walrus]

well, I guess I've done all I can until the community goal is reached. I'll probably go play other games for a few weeks, then come back when the rest of the milestones are unlocked.

[vivid stream]

same here

that's obviously deterrent for speed runners

[supple walrus]

lol. just stop the clock while we wait for the community goal, then start it again when it's finished.

I think Hello Games greatly overestimated player's willingness to grind the stupid sentient echos. Especially when it's easier to just put down the game for 2-3 weeks and play any of the other great games that just came out while we wait for the obvious timegate to complete.

[worldly cargo]

@ashen shore if you're building the arm that's phase 2 right?

[lime plume]

Anyone remember what seed of will needs?

[worldly cargo]

Oh ok cool

[worldly cargo]

Is it the first one?

[lime plume]

3rd.

[supple walrus]

even if no one grinds it, HG will just tweak the multiplier to artificially make it hit the goal. Bungie's had to do the same thing for similar "community goal" events in Destiny. Those events had the same issue of people just putting the game down until the goal was wrapped.

[bitter mirage]

Bro the community mission that’s called sentinel echo is so bs

[lime plume]

Just wanted to see what I need before I go see atlas.

[worldly cargo]

Then it needs the previous seed and one other thing, click an empty space in your inventory and you can see the craft list and it will show the components

[bitter mirage]

It’s not even 20% after two days

[supple walrus]

i think you can re-acquire it each time you submit a sentience echo

[worldly cargo]

Oh

Yeah idk off the top of my head

[bitter mirage]

Hate time gates

[vivid stream]

not everyone is having fun of endless grind, i guess i'll have to wait for next update

[bitter mirage]

They should definetelt remove that

[vivid stream]

or until 1 week before expedition concludes

[worldly cargo]

Yeah and it's 11 minutes, like wut

[bitter mirage]

I did the expedition and want my rewards like

[bitter mirage]

Fr

[worldly cargo]

The seed quest isn't a time gate tho it's a community mission

[umbral forum]

I like the wait time. Gives the community time to be part of the collective effort.

[lime plume]

Thanks tho, guess I will see when I get there. Hopefully something I already have on hand.

[vivid stream]

bane for speed runners tbh

[bitter mirage]

Well they better hurry up then😹

[worldly cargo]

It's usually something simple like ionised cobalt or whatever

[umbral forum]

If speed runners feel hurt about it, they can always pump out more seeds.

[worldly cargo]

We all lift together friend, join in the effort 🙂

[bitter mirage]

Yeah I’ve handed in like a 100 already ahahha

[supple walrus]

the single item turn in is the same reason I (and I assume a lot of people) skip the entire food game loop. I once tried making a stack of food items to turn in at Cronus, but after about a minute of tediously turning in the food items one at a time, I just gave up, looked on the wiki for the average nanite value per item I was turning in, then used save edit to delete the stacks of food and give myself the estimated value of nanites I would have gotten had I spent the next 3 hours turning in food to cronus. lmao.

[umbral forum]

Wasn't there an expedition that limited daily contributions per player?

The one with Somnal Dust.

[worldly cargo]

The loop?

[vivid stream]

somnal dust? are you referring to Leviathan?

[worldly cargo]

I think it was leviathan

[vivid stream]

yes

it is

[tawdry vector]

Where are the community goal at the moment?

[bitter mirage]

I think it’s about 10% rn

iirc

[worldly cargo]

Lol like 3% 😭

[vivid stream]

i got 16%

[supple walrus]

3%

[tawdry vector]

That's a good jump from yesterday evening where it was 1,9% i think

[supple walrus]

read it carefully

[worldly cargo]

16% *for tier one

[worldly cargo]

3% overall, 17% for tier one I think

[bitter mirage]

Bruh

[worldly cargo]

Something will happen at tier one complete but who knows what

[umbral forum]

It's the second day of the expedition and the weekend is just around the corner. Would expect the rate to increase in the next few days.

[bitter mirage]

😭

True

[supple walrus]

meanwhile... console palyers haven't even gotten the update.

[bitter mirage]

Fr?

Not even now?

[steady idol]

Should also go up when PS finally get a chance to play

[worldly cargo]

Oh yeah by a lot, especially once it releases on ps and switch

[supple walrus]

according to the subreddit

[bitter mirage]

Damn that’s tough

[worldly cargo]

It's on Xbox

[supple walrus]

thier's still people griping about it

[lime plume]

Xbox yes, ps4/5 no.

[worldly cargo]

Also no switch

[bitter mirage]

Ahahaha

[worldly cargo]

Once we get the exp on all platforms it'll be much quicker

[lime plume]

I am just rolling in money cuz of these ships.

[supple walrus]

Mac is off to the side of the pool sunbathing

[bitter mirage]

I’m glad I switched to PC recently

[vivid stream]

i don't have any consolea of my own

[worldly cargo]

Mac is pc

[supple walrus]

switched 👀

[vivid stream]

just PC

[bitter mirage]

Imma grind sentient echoes today

[tawdry vector]

selling them? 😄

[lime plume]

Yep, just junking all the extra sentient ships.

Even the C rank ones give out like 40 mil apiece.

And I sold 4 or 5 of em.

[vivid stream]

xbox console is still not supported in my country

[tawdry vector]

Nice one... Now I will do the same 😄

[supple walrus]

"Well yes, but actually no"

Far as I could tell from the Mac update announcement, they rebuilt the game engine to use Apple's Metal 3 API instead of Vulkan that's used on windows. So when they push updates, they need two separate builds, one with vulkan for PC and one with Metal 3 for Apple M2

[vivid stream]

ugh, but i just have to take a break from playing until phase 5 is completed

[lime plume]

Just remember to download the dissonance signal at every abandoned camp you find, including all the rendezvous points.

Yep, 3rd seed was ionized cobalt, 100 of it to be exact.

[vital otter]

So the first mission path says it’ll take you to an Atlas Station but there’s no station in that system, bug or are you supposed to find one on your own?

[unkempt kraken]

@supple walrus 👉 #memes🤡 (see pinned rules)

[supple walrus]

I give it like, a week or less, untill someone makes a mod to autocomplete the community goal client side, or make some sort of work around.

[native bloom]

You can save edit around it already

Not really moddable

Hmm, could maybe mod the turn-in requirements to not need a seed, though

[lime plume]

When you open up the galaxy map, be sure to flip between the different destination routes.

[vital otter]

Yeah the rendezvous is in this system so I’m going there for now

[plush zephyr]

Has anyone already made the expedition for the second time to try to unlock the helmet that didn't unlock in the first?

[lime plume]

You gotta visit the atlas before the rendezvous point will do anything for you.

[lime plume]

Some people just saved before turning it in, and reloading so they could get both.

[plush zephyr]

ah ok, then i should do it all over again hahaha, i forgot to save

[native bloom]

There's a possibility that doing it once unlocked both on other saves, but hasn't been verified yet, afaik

[lime plume]

Ouch.

[native bloom]

I need to test it this weekend

[supple walrus]

I'll probably just save edit in which ever helmet i don't get from the expedition

[vivid stream]

so the community progress is 18%

[cunning sandal]

I have a question how soon can you start building bases or can you build a base at all in this expedition ?

I see bases already made so I think you can I just don't know when

I just found out it's the second part of the expedition 👍🤣

[twilit moss]

Looking like the community milestone is going to take a while

Don't know...I only have the 1st one shown completed but I can't claim it or the one just before it for some reason

Go back and talk to the construct on the Anomaly and there's an interaction for them

[mellow badge]

even if the milestones cant be claimed, the head is unlocked in the vender person for expedition rewards

[twilit moss]

Good to know, I haven't looked there yet

[mellow badge]

the Crimson head looks nice, but HG didnt take into account FPS view, so elements of the head is in your screen

[twilit moss]

Had the same issue with one of the interceptor cockpits. Should be patched easily enough

[finite rover]

damn. nms crashed.

[mellow badge]

I like my current interceptor

wanna get 6 Interceptors in 6 specific colors (Purple, Pink, Yellow, White, Cyan, Orange), the Crimson Magic, Crimson Laughter, Crimson Loyalty, Crimson Generosity, Crimson Kindness, Crimson Honesty

[native bloom]

Not sure how easily it can be patched. Hopefully not difficult though

[twilit moss]

Well the cockpit that had the hardframe/minotaur front had the clipping issue when flying in 1st and that was taken care of first patch iirc

[pallid bone]

Aint the ending glitches?

or bugs

before the patch

[vale kayak]

I was Mac user long time ago! Sooo what can we do with Phase 5?

Should I start a new save or continue farming some echo seeds to help the community progress? :/

[west island]

thats painful

[lime plume]

||should I divergence first for phase 4, or get the seed first?||

[steady idol]

What's the ship you start with

[lime plume]

A solar.

[steady idol]

Convenient

[lime plume]

You find a sentient ship pretty early tho.

[steady idol]

Gotta love free fuel in an expedition

Do you get the anomaly at any point?

[lime plume]

Yes, you gotta do a couple steps first.

[steady idol]

Sweet, means I can scrap some twitch ships for quick cash as well

[dry escarp]

Did we Reach 19% on the community quest?

[lime plume]

Youre gonna be able to scrap alot of twitch ships. I am sitting on like 200mil right now cuz of it, lol.

[shy dagger]

i need help

basicly nada is saying "go to this place"

i go to the place with the mission icon, yet it says that the mission is in another system

nevermind, found it, it was off the guiding green line

[grand lodge]

😐 my ps5 still hasn't gotten the update... bit weird...

[native bloom]

Not at all, since the PS5 update hasn't come out

[vivid stream]

well that'll boost even more if this current expedition will be released on consoles

but yeah that'll be a bit sluggish

if us PC users are accomplishing our goals alone

[native bloom]

I'm not expecting until next weekend, even with all consoles contributing

[frank scaffold]

interested what will come after the first threshold

more lore?

[vivid stream]

since us PC users would take a bit while to contribute echo souls.

maybe we're bit minority, i suppose that most of NMS players are consoles alongside PC users like us.

that'll take huge effort to RNG those
