nms-expedition

[shut wing]

Peoole doing 100 a day. Waste of their precious time.

[rotund pecan]

it's at %CMTOTALPERCENT% lol

[ashen shore]

If Singularity is still available why cant i acess it then?

[wraith venture]

are you trying to create a new Expedition save? it appears that some players are having issues accessing the HG server that enables the expedition. we're unclear if it's a regional issue (as some of us aren't having said issue). since it's the weekend, we've got a feeling HG won't get to it till they're back in their office.

[ashen shore]

Ok thx

[oak hazel]

there is no evidence of that, the game does count every single one you insert though

[wraith venture]

we know there was a cap for Leviathan, a past expedition. i haven't received any official statement confirming this is the case for this expedition, but it's a likely mechanic happening.

[oak hazel]

how do people know that ?

I have checked the game memory, and afaik there is a count system that syncs online , and probably an anti cheat system

[lone sky]

hey need some help expedition 10 phase 5 what or where is ....empathy-echoes... ???

[wraith venture]

we're also seeing network connectivity issues which could be affecting progression. some of which seem to be platform specific. others which seem to be regional. HG was also busy patching a few bugs since release. so we'll see if any of the patches also have a desired effect on progression. there are so many moving parts with this update, it's hard to tell what's what. only time will tell. we gotta be patient.

[meager scroll]

Sentience Echos (English name) is the community research

You can still do the Prayer V and Seed of Hope milestones solo

[wraith venture]

in the past, ppl looked at game files iirc. we can ask someone like @native bloom or @hollow shore who may have more insight on how the 20 cap from Leviathan was figured out.

[lone sky]

thx

[oak hazel]

in that case that is more likely, although i have seen people saying stuff like the current progress is based on a timer, just because of a date ( which is tomorrow) so there is a lot of assumption there. Imo they must have made a system to prevent duping or altering the amount of seeds inserted

[cursive bone]

I'm currently observing the progress and calculating the expected progress if the theory about the timer is correct

#nms-expedition message
It was about it, actually

[oak hazel]

I mean just gotta check the different progress on the weekend and during the week

I think it would have made more sense if they made a daily quest, like collect 20 seeds. And if you want to contribute more then make another expedition save

[cursive bone]

My theory is that there's not only the "upper" cap, but also the "lower" one.
Like if there's not enough contributors, the game just adds a fixed amount to the progress

[oak hazel]

a lower cap makes more sense, or HG just being able to adjust things in their backend just in case

[cursive bone]

At the start there were not enough contributors, and the upper cap possibly made their progress even lower than the "lower" cap, and that's why at the beginning the data was showing growth in accordance with the "timer" theory

[oak hazel]

also we have no actual idea what makes the percentage go up, if its number of seeds or number of players that contributed a certain amount

[cursive bone]

If the cap is low, than the amount of players contributed per day has more influence on the progress, than the amount of seeds contributed

[lone sky]

how many echo seeds i need for terminal primus? it takes already 5???

[meager scroll]

It's a community research, we dont know how many it needs

[vital spire]

Is the ODS on-

[kindred mesa]

Still UNKNOWN

[meager scroll]

You can upload seeds all day

[loud karma]

still down

[vital spire]

Fuck

Also are we only allowed to upload 20 seeds?

[meager scroll]

We have no confirmation on that

It was a thing / theory from last exped with community research (Leviathan)

[vital spire]

Ah ok

[cursive bone]

Daaamn, we're already at 60%

[vital spire]

Nice!

Now just need to wait for the ODS to FINALLY work on pc

[cursive bone]

Yeah, let us PUMP

[kindred mesa]

What? Where? How? How do you know?

[cursive bone]

https://galacticatlas.nomanssky.com/poi/sentience-echo
(but it's the first stage only)

So it's like 10-15% overall

[kindred mesa]

Ok, that's cool :o

[vital spire]

LETS GOOOO

[cursive bone]

Btw, are there any coders to check my calculations?

Maybe they are incorrect

[white scaffold]

how many echo seeds do you need to complete sentience echo, i've already given it 3 and it shows no sign of progress

[cursive bone]

It's a community mission

[white scaffold]

bruh

[cursive bone]

All players advance it

[white scaffold]

so i cant complete the expedition until it unlocks?

can i at least do the commune with the atlas part or is that locked behind the sentience echo

[cursive bone]

Yeah

[white scaffold]

cool thanks

[cursive bone]

You can

You can do 4/6 of the phase 5 stages

[knotty shadow]

When does the expedition continue?

[cursive bone]

When the community achieves some amount of the contributed echo seeds

[vital spire]

When all of us work together to do the community shit

Which the devs would lower it so we don't do it too fast

[steady idol]

Which seems to have a unanimous agreement that it's shit

[kindred mesa]

It's nice that there is a required community effort - I just wish it was for additional bonus rewards after finishing the actual Expedition

[steady idol]

As community events should only ever be

Optional. Not mandatory

I think it's safe to say, no ones against the community goal. We're against the timegating in a time limited event

[nova merlin]

oof, still offline?

[solar basalt]

So any updates to the bad mission

[vital spire]

What mission?

[solar basalt]

The dumb community mission

[steady idol]

7% to next conversion

[solar basalt]

[steady idol]

Tier 1 is at 60%
Upload progress is 12%
Next collective sentience is in 7%

[solar basalt]

So basically not close at all

[steady idol]

Well it progressed all of 3% from last night to now so...

[steady idol]

Basically yeah

[vital spire]

Yep

[nova merlin]

they probably timed it out at 5 weeks...

[ocean sail]

ODS still down?

[warped abyss]

How do we unlock blueprints for the science terminal in the current expedition? Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask.

[lime plume]

The crashing is so bad for me on the last planet, I can't get to the last rendezvous point. I'm kinda, stuck.

So if anyone knows of a base that would let me warp straight there, I would greatly appreciate it.

[native bloom]

If I recall correctly, that was figured out via network packets

[earnest furnace]

Is anyone on the first planet they start at by any chance as when I get on shortly wanna head back there to set up something to help new expo ppls given how royally fucked up everything is atm

[young vessel]

What's the easiest way to obtain a quad servo?

[oak kiln]

do the last milestone in that phase

btw are the servers back up yet or no

[lyric galleon]

Not yet

[oak kiln]

zamn

[lime plume]

Well, I somehow managed to get there via ship. To hell with the crashed ship on the planet, I am getting this done and leaving asap.

[unkempt kraken]

@ashen shore

COMMUNITY RESEARCH

Tier: 1 of 5, Progress: 61%.

[oak kiln]

Nice

[lime plume]

Now I can't even leave the damn planet without it crashing before I take off.

[earnest furnace]

Yeah that happened with me so if ya can if there’s one near take off where no one is it’s orbit and head to a space station save then use galaxy map or use someone’s tp at base on said planet to get to another planet and do same as ℹ previous sid

[lime plume]

What is causing the issue then? Just all the bases and clutter, or something else?

[earnest furnace]

The first planet is causing the issue

[lime plume]

Hopefully it saved after I got the milestones done, so I can just bolt.

Ouch.

I'm on the last one.

It's lagging like crazy then just, crashes.

[earnest furnace]

Last planet ? Yeah o seen loads of ppl built there I had to land miles away and walk to a destination cause ppl bases crashed me to dashboard

I’m loading onto the new expo now to try and help ppl with stutt as all I can do atm

[lime plume]

I kept getting like 600-700U away and it just, crashing every time I moved like 100-200U. I also finally got off the damn planet. I wish we could turn off the bases show they would just, not show up on screen. It's not even so much the bases themselves, just the waypoints even. Plus the gravity "effect" of the last and like, the 3rd or 4th planet make me lag like crazy when they happen.

I did get to the site tho, I luckly dropped back in and was flying straight towards it. The lag isn't so bad on my ship, but once I land my system just can't handle it.

I definitely did not have this much problem my first expo run of this, which I had to delete cuz I did the helmet bug on it.

[cursive bone]

So it's time to install wireshark?

[earnest furnace]

Is anyone at the first planet ya start on by any chance ?

[lime plume]

I can start a new one if you need me to for whatever reason.

What you trying to do there?

[pulsar hollow]

is it normal that i can't pin any recipe's whatsoever in the expedition?
every time i do anything to do with completing recipes the game is like "pin the recipe for guidance" but then I never have the option to pin it anywhere.

[earnest furnace]

It’s so I can build to help ppl

[lime plume]

Like, places to warp to to avoid the lag?

[earnest furnace]

Yeah and helpful stuff

[earnest furnace]

It was such a pain in my ass when I was trying to and tbh untill hello games sorts there shit out

Not lot I can do on nms

[lime plume]

Gimme a sec and I'll make a fresh one, I am hearing impaired tho so I can't use a mic or anything.

[earnest furnace]

I@can use mic neater my mic went poof few days ago just need planet then ya can go bout ya day

[lime plume]

Well if you just need planet and system, it is in the pins.

[earnest furnace]

It is ?

[lime plume]

Yes.

Hold on.

System Dalnye planet Ahei XV.

It has the starting planet, the rendezvous points, and all their glyphs and coords listed.

[earnest furnace]

Awesome thanks I’ll find it

[lime plume]

That was how I found the last point via flying to reduce the abysmal lag.

I just listed the planet an system lol.

The others are all listed too tho if you wanna make warp bases.

I know 2 3 and 4 already have warp bases, just not so obviously named.

Tho I could warp in, there was no actual "base" to warp out from.

Either way good luck in your endeavors, you have far more patience for that than I do.

Now excuse me while I go find some uncharted system without any bases to go settle down in, lol.

[earnest furnace]

I don’t have patience that’s why I’m trying make myself useful

[lime plume]

Ha, fair enough. Still more effort than me tho.

[vital spire]

Is the ODS finally working?

[loud karma]

nope :(

[vital spire]

Weird, the multi-player is working

[loud karma]

yeah i can see players in the anomaly but in the discoveries tab its still says Connecting

[lime plume]

The multiplayer is probably client side thl rather than server side.

[vital spire]

Fuck

I have like 70 seeds that I want to deposit

[earnest furnace]

Accidentally got into a fire fight with a sentinal flag ship hahah

[vital spire]

Oof-

[earnest furnace]

Done it just

[vital spire]

Nice

[earnest furnace]

There actually easier then ppl think

[torpid pivot]

should I shot the purple big orb appeared randomly when I use pulse engine?

[earnest furnace]

Huh ?

Oh no no

Also if find a giant eye don’t shot just run

[tepid sierra]

Yes you can, you get Atlantideum

Or however that is spelled

[torpid pivot]

ty

[tepid sierra]

No problem

[stoic wing]

How do I get the quad servo for the expedition?

[earnest furnace]

Once I’ve set up I’ll give ya some but ya can get from rewards in expo

[solar basalt]

Get all the Atlantidium stuff for that last quest in that phase, you get the quad servo from that

[lime plume]

Apologies for the earlier rant.

[royal slate]

servers are still down?!?

[knotty shadow]

Wdym

[loud karma]

yep :(

[royal slate]

progress is at unknown

and discovery servers are down

[knotty shadow]

Im ingame

[royal slate]

yes

they are two different servers

[knotty shadow]

🤷‍♂️

[royal slate]

one's for hosting recorded data and one's for player activity

discord has something like that too

a live server and an archival server

the vc one and the text one

[knotty shadow]

Ok

[royal slate]

one can go down with the other working

anyway

did they say anything on twitter?

[knotty shadow]

The community expedition goes very slowly and me grinding already 7h straight

[knotty shadow]

Idk

[royal slate]

thats the problem

its not going

[loud karma]

i havent seen anything on their twitter i checked like an hour ago

[royal slate]

the servers are down

its not tracking universal progress

[knotty shadow]

Its going but I have the feeling like 1% per hour

[royal slate]

local progress works

but the echo seed uploading is broken

we're ALL stopped at the final phase

i managed to get both helmets with the progression skip bug from the earlier version

but im still missing the phase 5 and final phase rewards

[knotty shadow]

You think the final phase rewards gonna be big?

[coarse spruce]

My discovery tab is online. (PS5)

[royal slate]

you can always just check

and it could be anything

id still be upset for not getting it

[somber sail]

The fact they don't say anithing is maybe a part of the exp

[knotty shadow]

Ingame or Web?

[royal slate]

ingame

[elfin magnet]

So, just to make sure, the sentient echoes of phase 5 is community based, correct?

[knotty shadow]

Ok

[somber sail]

yeah

[royal slate]

and broken

[somber sail]

For now yeah

[elfin magnet]

Okay, good to know so i dont drive myself insane trying to grind it out

[somber sail]

But fefore 30% he was not

and maybe the progress continue

!tier

[unkempt kraken]

Of course its broken, i just hope the ones i put in do in fact count towards it when its fixed

My number, its even in my employee number at work, AND my social

[royal slate]

dont think its making any progress

would love to be proven wrong

[somber sail]

Its just strange

[royal slate]

optional rewards are the two different helmets

[coarse spruce]

Tier one is progressing. 2% in the last hour.

[royal slate]

phase 5 is title, decal, banner

[lime plume]

There are mixed opinions on it either being a timer, or the amount needed is just massive.

[elfin magnet]

Well, ill check tomorrow and see what its at, because thats the only thing i have left that i can do since the last 3 things for ohase 5 are locked

[royal slate]

phase 6/final is the other body parts

[royal slate]

the timer part is part of any community effort

most of the time is not active

but there's a timer in the game files

[lime plume]

There is no actual phase 6, it's just a run down of the other 5 and total stats.

[royal slate]

its so in the worst possible case it still gets completed

but any community effort makes it faster

[lime plume]

And fair enough.

[royal slate]

yeah i know. i just checked.

i was responding for the rewards thing

[lime plume]

Right now finding an unoccupied system to settle down in to offset the lag of the more populated systems.

[royal slate]

what

just turn off multiplayer

[lime plume]

I did.

[royal slate]

i dont have any lag

lower quality

i have multiplayer on too

[lime plume]

Cant on Xbox.

[royal slate]

that doesnt sound right

but i dont have an xbox

so i dont know

[lime plume]

These are my graphic settings. There is no lowering settings.

Multiplayer can be turned off yes, and it is off at all times.

[royal slate]

turn off motion blur i guess

[lime plume]

I am using the older xbox 1 as well.

[royal slate]

that sucks though

is that so for every console game?

im only pc

[lime plume]

Either way this is what I am doing, cuz there are so much clutter in the more populated systems I just crash all the time.

Hell if I know, I only have Xbox.

[royal slate]

well do any other xbox games have graphic settings?

[crystal steeple]

uh scrap or upgrade a sentinel interceptor?

exped peeps have made a lot of nanite farms but I'm thinking about spending it

[royal slate]

i just kept my sentinel interceptor as my main ship

its a good ship and looks cool

[ocean sail]

How does nanite farming work

[royal slate]

not like you need nanites

[lime plume]

I normally don't have to adjust the graphics on my other games, so I rarely touch that setting. But normally yes, there is a bit more control.

[crystal steeple]

I'm on my third interceptor I found in the wild but it's got a nice color and I don't feel like activating a portal to find an already-found interceptor

[royal slate]

super odd

[lime plume]

Either way, finding a nice low traffic area to settle down. This ice planet I found is quite nice.

[royal slate]

this is neither here nor there but whenever i look at your icon i can only see excalibur

hang on ill get a pic

[silent horizon]

Wait is singularity possible to be finished now?

[royal slate]

no

[silent horizon]

How come people have the badge then?

[drifting burrow]

how come i cant see Resonance amplifier installation ? does anyone have the same problem ?

[royal slate]

do you have the blueprint

[lime plume]

I know what warframe is, lol.

[drifting burrow]

where do you get one ? in anomaly ?

[lime plume]

If you zoom in those, those horns are wings.

[oak kiln]

Interacting with the role

[silent horizon]

Oh ok

[royal slate]

some uh

expedition

reward

[drifting burrow]

hmm

[royal slate]

just keep doing the other things

do every other thing you can

oh i think i remember actually

nada gave it to you

she has to send you out first

also its on your multi tool

so make sure you're checking that

[lime plume]

Fr1sbie, you on pc or mac?

[drifting burrow]

well it does flash to install but it doesnt show up somehow

pc

[lime plume]

That is probably why.

[royal slate]

yeah i was there

its cause you dont have the bp

thats why i tell you to do every other thing you cna

i can open nms for the fourth time in the last 20 minutes i guess

to check which one gave the reward

hang on

[royal slate]

also, do you play?

yeah its the sentience echo one

thats currently bugged

[lime plume]

Lately no. But this server is for No Mans Sky, not that. So I won't discuss it further.

[royal slate]

but you should be able to get the blueprint

[drifting burrow]

Wierd

Maybe its int P5

In*

[ashen shore]

yo, how do i compete the grand divergence milestone? was watching a video and he got some knowledge stone-type icon, but i cant see it

i aready talked to nada

[royal slate]

nada should send you to go to that stone

[royal slate]

it is

[ashen shore]

oh wait nvm i just had to pin it from expeditions tab

[drifting burrow]

So that makes sense then

[royal slate]

sentience echo is one of the parts of phase 5

[royal slate]

doesnt really matter if we're not impeding conversations about the expedition

[left jackal]

the progress of feeding the terminal is collective or individual?

[royal slate]

and im fine with talking to 3 people at once

[lime plume]

Collective.

[royal slate]

collective, and currently bugged

[drifting burrow]

Lol so i had to finish “The lifeboat” milestone to get it

[royal slate]

servers are down

[left jackal]

damn

[royal slate]

oh thats odd

[lime plume]

If youre on console go ahead and turn them in.

[drifting burrow]

Polo gave it to me

[lime plume]

Just look at the discovery page and make sure online discovery service is active.

[royal slate]

keep at least one

it makes it easier to see progress

just a qol thing

plus it might not even count

[vivid stream]

so our progress is now 70% Tier 1

[royal slate]

is that right?

[lime plume]

Yes.

the red orb thats three thirds hidden

but whats the diamond shape

[finite rover]

I don't think that this game can count. I killed 3 mirror thingy giving things and I only got 2 mirrors out of it. :(

[lime plume]

Did you get an anomaly item from the 3rd?

[finite rover]

ahhhh

[lime plume]

I noticed they drop a different item sometimes too.

[finite rover]

fair then

[lime plume]

It helps you find another one of those bases like the one you started out in.

More free gun/ship.

[dark cliff]

Should I keep uplaoding seeds? The timer has goen away. Is it a bug ?

[finite rover]

cool

[royal slate]

we dont know

servers are down

maybe it counts

maybe it doesnt

[dark cliff]

Ahhhh

ugh

[royal slate]

i dont think it does

[lime plume]

I would advise against uploading more for pc and mac.

It is a community milestone, so probably wont count even when the servers do come back online.

[royal slate]

if you're save editing its for naught anyway

[lime plume]

So just hold onto them.

[royal slate]

since it has an inside check

i believe it only counts for how many of the things you mined

so duping doesnt work either

[lime plume]

They probably just capped how many you can give a day.

We don't really know how it works, they're not being all that transparent about it.

[steady idol]

They never are...@lime plume

[lime plume]

No, server is down for pc and mac.

[rugged grove]

ok thanks

[finite rover]

HA! I KNEW Crystal Syphide would come in handy. :)

[lime plume]

Yep, you need it for a blueprint.

[finite rover]

got it ages back figuring it'd come into play :)

[lime plume]

Hope you kept that crystalized heart too.

[finite rover]

oh yeah.

[lime plume]

Don't, use it yet

[finite rover]

that's more out of: that's weird and I've not seen it before. Better keep it around.

[lime plume]

It can be used to unlock nodes in sentient multi tools, which is a mistake I made. You also need it for a milestone blueprint.

[finite rover]

did you get another?

wow. I've 3 of them.

[lime plume]

If you want more to unlock slots, instead of using repair kits, gotta hunt corrupted quads.

[finite rover]

ahhhh

that's how

I've been mean to them :)

[lime plume]

Well you only need to keep one, do with the rest as you please.

Or just wait so you don't on accident.

It's one of the very last blueprints too, which is annoying.

[finite rover]

i'll wait until they are necessary

[strange zinc]

I meeeean, as long as you strafe and make sure to stay at the edge of the big quad corrupted robots, then hearts are easy to get

[lime plume]

Was hoping to get free blueprints from the terminals, but guess you can't in expeditions. Gotta go hunt down more salvaged data.

[strange zinc]

honestly if you stay to fight even a bit while grinding those mirrors you should come out with a few hearts

[finite rover]

i've more radiant shards than I care to poke a stick at.

[lime plume]

If you have a sentient ship, those shards power up pretty much everything.

[strange zinc]

I mean it's useful to have a ton cause most sentinal ship tech can be recharges with 1

[finite rover]

yeah I know. kinda happy with the solar one so not sure if I want to use sentient one.

[strange zinc]

on my main save I have like... what, 5 ships? ... and all of them except the starter ship are sentinal lol

[finite rover]

I managed to score an A class so it's tempting

[strange zinc]

they are so easy if you got a decent few mirrors

since you get a location every corrupted swarm clear

heck, I'd say grab one every time, even if it's C class

[royal slate]

that was debunked

[strange zinc]

you can always scrap it for money

[lime plume]

How so?

[drifting burrow]

Sooo i can’t finish “Sentience echoe” ms because the servers are down, or i should just feed it with echo seed’s till it counts ?

[royal slate]

there's no such cap in the code

[lime plume]

Ah.

[royal slate]

however there are checks everytime

[royal slate]

wait like

another day

and something will happen

[drifting burrow]

Oh ok

[royal slate]

idk what

but something will since we're progressing really quickly

[strange zinc]

yeah, I mean just get a freighter or a base with storage boxes and just continue to collect echos

[royal slate]

2% in an hour

[drifting burrow]

Yeah, im like 2 ms off of finishing

[royal slate]

wdym?

[finite rover]

is it just pc that's affected or xbox as well?

[royal slate]

we're all indirectly affected

[finite rover]

how so?

[royal slate]

biggest playerbase on pc and if us and mac are offline then you guys are handicapped

[finite rover]

how?

[royal slate]

its collective

and calculated for the entirety of the collective

[finite rover]

oh that

[royal slate]

so even if xbox would be fine

which it might not be

but even if it was

it would need to make progress equivalent to everyone else's combined numbers

[lime plume]

Did they also figure out what that last milestone gives as a reward then? Not the optional ones, but the glitched main one.

[quartz carbon]

72% its gonnna be a long day

[trim void]

72% from completing Tier 1

we're getting close to 20% overall progress completion

[gilded stratus]

Yea WK 1 Tier 1 done by Monday

[quartz carbon]

im wondering how many Echo seeds did the T1 take?

[gilded stratus]

Exactly 1 WK worth I think lol

[quartz carbon]

Nor really helping xd

[gilded stratus]

I know lol I was here all yesterday wondering the same thing

[finite rover]

really wishing that you could cancel a landing sequence

[lime plume]

Indeed that would be nice, especially when my ship wants to use a landing pad 200U away from where I actually want to land.

[finite rover]

yup

or the landing signal to a landing pad vanishes at just the wrong moment

or when you twitch

gah. not enough fuel now.

[strange zinc]

what ship are you using?

[lime plume]

Launch fuel? Pretty easy to make.

You do get a thing later from a milestone that lets it gradually refill.

[finite rover]

it's ok. it was on 24%. let me lift off when it hit 26%

[lime plume]

Check the milestones to see which one gives it, think it is during one of the later phases.

You can get it really early tho.

[strange zinc]

it's in phase 3, you need to collect 3000 nanites

[finite rover]

im on 10.3k :)

[lime plume]

Yeah, pretty easy. Especially if you scan all the critters on the very first planet.

[strange zinc]

yeah, and each shard can be refined into 50 nanites per, so if you really wanted to you could stay in the first system until you get that milestone

[pulsar hollow]

I take it as long as the server for PC isn't working properly and the echo mission progress just reports as "unkown" there's no use in actually trying to do anything rn? (i'd assume it won't contribute to the progress in any way at least) until the server issue is fixed?

[ashen shore]

So... I created a new save for the Expedition yesterday afternoon, and now when I load it it says the Expedition is over. I am on a different PC today, but as far as I can tell, it's up to date in Steam.... anyone have any idea WTH?

[lime plume]

Pretty sure while its down you can't even hunt the echoes either.

[lime plume]

Servers down.

[pulsar hollow]

well i just collected 10 of them so collecting them definitely works.

[strange zinc]

yeah Im collecting some as we speak, it's just the turn-ins and overall count that's affected I thought

[lime plume]

I just remember people saying the device stopped working for them.

[ashen shore]

Sigh... up early on a Sunday and was planning on trying to crank through the Expedition today.... I guess I need a new plan.

[quartz carbon]

27% more then were at Tier 2!!

[pulsar hollow]

guess i'll save my echo's until the problem is fixed just in case .

[strange zinc]

same

[pulsar hollow]

shame i already handed in 5 of them before realizing something was up.

[lime plume]

Either way I got tired of the crashes, which seem to happen alot more during this expedition compared to my normal saves. So I'll be playing other stuff today. Good luck on the grind.

[halcyon matrix]

Hey um. Has the Expedition ended?

[finite rover]

nop

[halcyon matrix]

Oh. When I try to make a new save. It says there is none happening right now.

[finite rover]

if you're on pc there are server issues

[halcyon matrix]

Ah. Should I close and re-open the game?

[queen wave]

That won’t help

[finite rover]

wont help. likely chance is to join someone's existing game so as to force your save to be converted

[halcyon matrix]

I see... Would there be someone willing to help?

[unique glen]

Good morning, friends! I’m in the Rendezvous 5 star system, trying like hell to get to the Atlas for Prayer IV, but I can’t find it for the life of me! Does anybody know where it is? I’ve talked to Polo and he said he gave me coordinates, and I don’t see crap in the galaxy map. I’ve been looking for 20 mins. <—- 🤷🏻‍♀️

I am here

[drifting burrow]

i've just recently done it, lemme get in the game and check it out

[whole seal]

@vital spire Above I see some saying the Expedition is reported as over. Does the game go ahead and convert the save? Is there danger of that such that it's best to avoid even touching the Expedition save until there's a green light from folks?

[mint glacier]

is ODS back?

[vital spire]

Nah you don't need to worry about that, it will still play the expidation it just wouldn't allow you to the community event

[vital spire]

Nope

[whole seal]

ok

I'll Sack up my Bave just in case

[drifting burrow]

wait, did you flag the milestone in log ?

[unique glen]

If you mean this, then yes.

[gray furnace]

Where you getting this info from

[unique glen]

If anyone happens to be near an Atlas and wouldn’t mind adding me so I can jump to you, my Friend Code is:

N5VN-J1F2-RR6EE

Maybe I’ll reboot the game. I think this is a glitch

[ivory copper]

ayo any update on that phase 5 shizz?

[drifting burrow]

Nah, stilll stuck on Echo

[unique glen]

Dang it. It won’t show me a path to the Atlas station? What the actual ffffffig-Newton?!

[ivory copper]

sigh my ocd of wanting it complete is crying

[drifting burrow]

it should show you in the map, where to go. there's no way it bugged out :/

[naive prism]

phase 4 atlas station?

[unique glen]

It did before, now it won’t 😭

[drifting burrow]

rr the game maybe ?

[unique glen]

Yeah, I’m trying to finish Prayer IV

[naive prism]

phase 4 atlas is different, you need to talk to nada/polo first

it says in the description you need to finish one of the other milestones first before you can proceed

[unique glen]

I did close and reboot the game. And I DID talk to those guys. I’m about ready to strangle them both. polo said he’d provide coordinates, but nothing on the damn map

I’ll try talking to those jerks again. lol

[finite rover]

there. 16k nanites. forgot to collect on some worlds.

[naive prism]

breathe and look at the other milestones-- complete the rest of phase 4 and then you get an atlas waypoint again

still reports of people not being able to start the expedition?

[earnest furnace]

Guess I’m hunting for more sentinal ships then

[unique glen]

I don’t think it’s possible to continue without interacting with the Atlas first

[quick ore]

Hello, hows the %?

[naive prism]

yes it is, it requires those other 2 on the bottom left iirc

[earnest furnace]

14% overall I think

[quick ore]

So we unlocked something, no?

[earnest furnace]

Least that what it says on my screen

[earnest furnace]

Not yet

[quick ore]

It said something would happen at 13%

[stoic wing]

Anyone able to give me some lubricant in the expedition?

[stoic wing]

As I can’t find stuff to make some

[earnest furnace]

I can in few is it just lub ya need

[quick ore]

Depending on where youre at, you might find a gamma weed and faecium farm

[earnest furnace]

I’m on the starter planet just look for xeno help out base

Or can tp to it

[stoic wing]

And hydraulic wiring if that’s ok

[stoic wing]

Ok

One sec

[whole seal]

It used to all be about lubricant

[unique glen]

I’ll try the Nada’s lead. At least that popped up on front of me.

[earnest furnace]

Hydraulic wiring I’ll look see if I have it

[whole seal]

Back in 1.1

[gray furnace]

How come no one wants to tell me where you finding this information from? Is one of those things that I need to figure out myself because it will give me a advantage of so not nice

Congrats, you made it to the Community portion of the Expedition! Currently, it's wonky due to the ODS being down for PC players and it's not showing progress for them.

[nova scaffold]

ok. Am I supposed to be able to unlock the 5th Phase? Or do I have to wait for ODS to recover?

[analog relic]

Currently the Expedition is not completable until the Communtiy portion is complete! If you're on PC, keep any Echoe Seeds you have and don't submit more as due to the ODS being down, it doesn't track your submissions.

[ashen shore]

damn

[nova scaffold]

oh. ok.

[analog relic]

Man, I can't spell today! The unfortunate side effect of waking up an hour early.

[median harbor]

i didnt realize how out of order you could go with the milestones, until i completed a phase 3 milestone while in phase 2

[ashen shore]

also, is there a way to upload many seeds at once? or can you only do them one by one

[nova scaffold]

yeah one at a time

[ashen shore]

dang

[analog relic]

Yeah, one at a time.

I'm sure HG is already aware of the ODS being wonky so hopefully as the weeks opens up on Monday or Tuesday, the ODS will be stable again for PC folk!

[cursive orchid]

I usually only hop into this game for expeditions and new updates then dip out, but am I right in thinking this is the worst thing HG has released in awhile?

[warm token]

no

[cursive orchid]

It's just an arbitrary timer that screws people with limited time stuff

[warm token]

this is the third time

[meager scroll]

No, Waypoint was

[warm token]

yep

[cursive orchid]

What was waypoint?

[warm token]

not an exped but the 4.0 update

[meager scroll]

Waypoint, then 2 updates that bricked the game on Steam Deck on launch lmao

[warm token]

but even then it was nowhere as bad as 2.0

[meager scroll]

Game was SD verified... until it wasn't

[cursive orchid]

Oooof

[teal flicker]

Oh, I remember the backlash that came afterwards

[warm token]

2.0 bricked the game for so many players across all devices, some for months

[cursive orchid]

I really only started playing when pirates got revamped with outlaw

[warm token]

and a lot of people hated 2.0 for barely adding new content for them and lamented that HG focused too much on VR people when there was barely any audience for them

[severe whale]

81% looks like it sped up some

[median harbor]

if tier 1 isnt when it unlocks, im probably gonna just use a mod like consumerism

[vital spire]

I am actually contemplating to make another expedition save to get the other option without using the reset point

[teal flicker]

I am tempted to do it on my Xbox account as well( currently using my steam account)

[median harbor]

what other option?

the helmets? because so far i cant even get the helmets

[vital spire]

Eh it's for later when it actually starts to work

[broken idol]

i'll do that too

the one I chose before the patch isn't really nice looking for me

[severe whale]

also the ship and jetpack skins unlock but you can't use them yet... this update is a cluster

[vital spire]

What do you mean by that?

[nova merlin]

Plays great on mine, done 90% of this expedition + base and freighter building on mine

[severe whale]

there's a jet pack thrust cosmetic and a ship thrust cosmetic that unlock during the expedition. i have both unlocked but the jetpack one doesn't appear among the others.. not just as locked but completely does not exist in the thrust skin selection. and i can't build the ship one

[vital spire]

Weird, it should be unlocked

[severe whale]

oh it is.. they just arn't implemented

like.. i can go on another save. and claim them but they still don't show up

Can anyone confirm for me once the expadtion is over the save will get converted into a normal one but we keep all of our items?

always does

except no one can finish properly atm so it's a moot point

[stoic wing]

Oh wait so I can’t make this yet

[severe whale]

you can't do one of the parts of phase 5 because it's a community mission and the servers are down. so as of this moment the expedition is unfinishable

The ship usually has 3 things in it to loot, the heart, the brain and some shards

[meager scroll]

Nope, not the heart, the Salvaged Glass

fastest method i've been doing is put a base on the corrupted planet, go to the anomaly one; then teleport to your base. as long as you don't leave the planet you can then just warp back to the anomaly instantly

The salvaged glass is one of the things in it yes, but ships drop 3 things

i feel bad for the people that are still new to the game and jump right into the expedition lol the struggle

[knotty marsh]

You can warp back to the anomaly?

[wanton lark]

yes. if you have a base on a planet, you can use the teleporter in the anomaly to that base. as long as you don't leave the planet, you can warp back to the anomaly the same method as how you pull up the galaxy map n stuff

[knotty marsh]

Huh, never knew that somehow

Check google,
You can also share 1 save's galaxies you've been to with another save using this

A typical "OOOOOPS" from the developers.....

It's not really a mistake

There is no connection to servers

So it can't retrieve the value

I think Online Discovery Services, ODS, is still down for Steam players

[frosty pine]

It could have been handled better tho

yeah it looks like it's not converting a "tag" into an actuall number, because it doesn't get the number from the servers

[frosty pine]

It's a pc server problem

Makes sense to me. Seems like everyone else got a late start due to something or other, Steam has to get bashed too... 😉

[knotty marsh]

yup, some people across the internet, including me, don't have it in their personalizer. I've made sure to check if i actually clicked on redeem button in the menu and look for it on the quicksilver merchant. No luck

i think it might be as someone else said it, that the new trail overlaps with the old (orange) reality glitch trail

[wanton lark]

it looks WAY cooler with the most recent jetpack you get from the sentinal stuff

[knotty marsh]

probably if you haven't had it unlocked before (the orange one) it could cause a bug now

[frosty pine]

I use the Leviathan cape anyway, so it almost doesn't show up 😂

[wanton lark]

i usually have a cape too but i switched once i noticed it barely even shows with a cape

[knotty marsh]

yeah i was wearing a cape for some time too

after some time you need to mix things up 😉

[frosty pine]

Also, i mainly play on 1st person haha

Speeding trick works wonky on 3rd person 😂

[drifting burrow]

sompared to other developer's oopsies, this is nothing

compared*

wait community exploration is on expedition just or on other saves as well ?

[wanton lark]

expedition

[drifting burrow]

well then apparently i cant do it xD nada doesnt let me :/

[knotty marsh]

yeah i've noticed it too, tho i never really tested it to be sure 🙂 Seems like when you on the FPP camera, you can jetpack a little easier

and longer

[wanton lark]

what do you mean?

[wraith bough]

Thats why I hot keyed camaera change 😄

[drifting burrow]

I cant do them, i dont even see the bar in game

[frosty pine]

Ahh not talking about jetpack. I mean hit and reload/analysis

You go doing zooooooooom

[drifting burrow]

Dont even have community research in the log

[knotty marsh]

ah alright

[knotty marsh]

server issues going on right now

[drifting burrow]

well others apparently have it

[chrome garnet]

Are you playing on Steam?
Online Discovery Services are down for Steam

[grave igloo]

I don't suppose there is anywhere they update the status of ODS repairs for Steam other than actually being in game, is there?

[gritty ruin]

I no longer see the progress bar for the online milestone, is this an intended change?

[drifting burrow]

Oh yeah on steam, so no helping from me then i guess

[chrome garnet]

Not yet, sorry

[chrome garnet]

Are you playing on Steam also?

[wraith bough]

Us steam users just freeloading on the community part.. 😄

[gritty ruin]

yea, I see some people talking about steam issues so I'd assume that's it

[chrome garnet]

Yes, Online Discovery Services are down for Steam players

[drifting burrow]

Sadge

[ashen shore]

Ok so I'm stuck on the final step, it says consult with Nada but nada really isn't doing anything after the initial convo

[frosty pine]

So basically Nada is doing nada 👀

Sry, language joke 😂

[chrome garnet]

All other platfroms have ODS, just not Steam

[severe whale]

94% almost there

Tier 2 unlocks Steam ods

[frosty pine]

They locked us out because if pc players where able to contribute, this would have been done by friday 🙈

[analog relic]

Maybe this was payback for the console players getting a late start

[grave igloo]

That's my theory

[frosty pine]

We already got that payback a week ago

Download 8GB because of the mac update 😂

[languid creek]

The 8 GB was an emulator for the mac.... 😄

[south marlin]

Strange question, I'm sure, but anyone have a list of the rendezvous planets? Kind of feel like going back and dropping helpful bases now that I'm basically maxed out again. 😂

[frosty pine]

[south marlin]

Perfect, danke.

[frosty pine]

Yw

[mint glacier]

are pc players still disconnected from ODS?

[fossil thunder]

sounds like it 😭

[chrome garnet]

Steam players are

[teal flicker]

Xbox game pass is not

[craggy sun]

First tier almost complete, we are so close!

[chrome garnet]

I see 94%

[severe whale]

going alot quicker today

[chrome garnet]

If we complete Tier 1 and ODS is still down for Steam Players 🥵

[mint glacier]

well, that sucks... i guess not having any official acknowledgement of the issue from HG makes this something that probably flew right under their noses...

[frosty pine]

Either non pc players actually got into the task, or the automatic progress from HG got tweaked 😂

[chrome garnet]

It may be a Steam issue. Something HG cannot controll. I do not know

[severe whale]

can't have gone under their radar.. we've yelled at them on twitter and other places

[severe whale]

doesn't track.. cause gog version also is having issues

[muted crater]

Do y’all think something is going to happen once we hit T2?

[severe whale]

supposedly when we hit t2 we can continue and finish

[frosty pine]

Free modules after each seed turned in 🤞🏻

[proven axle]

what is the ODS? is that why I can't make progress with the echo seeds?

[frosty pine]

Yea

It's the thing that manages the online stuff of the game

[analog relic]

The ODS is the Online Discovery Services, the online componet to NMS.

[languid creek]

the consoles hit tier 3, and then the pc servers come up with a message from HG "Because of the sync problems we are going to roll back all progress. Sorry for the inconvenience. Have fun." 😄

[teal flicker]

Imagine lol

[proven axle]

ah damn thats unfortunate, i've been having a blast going through the expedition

[south marlin]

SMH.

[proven axle]

its my first one so i thought i was doign something wrong at first

[chrome garnet]

No, it's not you

[mint glacier]

this is my second expedition, but this is the first one where i have gotten very far.

the previous expedition, Utopia, was a thing that i regret not doing to completion, but i just did not have the enthusiasm for NMS back then because of a burnout i was having with the game...

[frosty pine]

At least you got to see it. I totally missed Utopia. Didn't even hear about it 😂

[languid creek]

This is my first expedition.... and what an introduction to it. 😄

[proven axle]

I had the game around when utopia was released but i didn't have a reliable computer to play it, since the one I'd bought started to spontaneously combust on me

[steady idol]

You have my condolences

[teal flicker]

This going to be the first one I am going to finish

[steady idol]

They're usually not plagued by awful timegating

[analog relic]

Yeah, oof yikes

[analog relic]

They also tend to be a tad more stable than this, just a bit.

[proven axle]

so that tier thing i saw a bit earlier, whats that for? a global tracking count for all the echo seeds everybody has contributed so far?

[languid creek]

Fortunatly i am an old gamer.... Bugs at launch isn't new to me.... They are sadly the norm now. Its only a matter of HOW buggy.... 😄

[wanton lark]

the tier progress is different than the upload progress

[neon tundra]

is it "Unknown" for anyone else?

[frosty pine]

No, i was talking about the tiers of the community mission

[mint glacier]

also, if i remember right i was playing the game all the way before the creatures overhaul in the Companions update, but i had to start a new save because my old one refused to load fully, resulting in me getting stuck in the loading screen...

even more bad is that i had no idea what an expedition meant at that time, so i did not play them...

[analog relic]

PC ODS is down so Steam players are experiencing issues with the Expedition.

[neon tundra]

:(

[severe whale]

steam AND gog

[proven axle]

yea it sucks but i think it's gonna get fixed soon

[analog relic]

Oh and Gog? Ouch

[frosty pine]

Ohh that's a good point. Any gog player that can confirm?

[severe whale]

"soon" TM. soon would have been within hours.. we're going on 2 days

as someone pointed out even if it hits 100 for tier 1. PC players are S.O.L>

[ivory sail]

I’m new to the game and started doing expedition with my friend and I, we are 12 hours in and already on phase 5

[severe whale]

congrats.. now you'll be stuck on phase 5 for the next 5 weeks

[ivory sail]

The haddest part of the quest was the stupid gamma weed

[wanton lark]

so much for master race

[severe whale]

there was a dude on the planet that had a farm of them set up for everyone to snag making it easier

[mint glacier]

good, we are getting slow progress even without PC players... i know that is not as good as it seems considering the fact that ODS decided to soil its pants and refuse to cooperate at the exact wrong time.

[ivory sail]

How come? Because i have extra seed for the altas

[neon tundra]

i got 200 gamma weed from a milestone i think, so i was like, ok 200 more, that's not the worst

and then i realized i only made one and had to get 400. that was not fun.

[ivory sail]

Yea i went to his base he was completly out of energy and no energy was connected to anything 😅

[frosty pine]

*600

[neon tundra]

yeah, 600 total

[gloomy grove]

it was right there

lmao

[ivory sail]

So i was traveling and these stupid purple pulsating ball in space gave me 2 of the seeds

Idk if i broke it or meant to happen lol

[steel sun]

I just finished making the lube and now i've gotta go get emeril cos the milestone is in a green system

[mint glacier]

was it named something like "Doge's Lubricant Farm"? i ask because i built one very small unfinished lubricant farm on one of the rendezvous planets (the one with constant rad storms).

[frosty pine]

If you talk to them as a civilized person, they give you one

THen you blow them up and you get another one

[neon tundra]

i don't think it has to be that specific atlas terminal, does it?

or was it the monolith that was in the emeril system
