We getting closer!!

Really zoomin

@still prairie
I assume it's like community unlockables, instantly available once the instance you're playing recognizes that the quest is done.
About Half way there!
Livin' on a prayer!
I also want start a war with sential
seriously, can we get a vote here
I about to be on lunch break. Is the expedition sone?
Approx 6.5h from now at the current rate.
We on tier 5 45% done on final tier
WTF
wtf
Oh, so you're not talking about Echo Seeds, the things from the expedition? 'cuz you're in #nms-expedition, so I got confused.
I am not sure how I feel about geks
Did they move the network settings? Anomaly is empty wondering if I have PvP off, but not finding where it used to be
same place for me
Multiplayer is what you're looking for, PvP is just combat permission
Isn’t it usually just under options-connection though? It’s been awhile since I’ve played
Network.
Yeah, you'll have to ask in #nms-questions for help with that. No clue why that's not there unless you're offline completely or something.
hes huge wtf
"LET THEM FIGHT....."
!tier
@supple bridge
OK, what about all this echo dumping that's going on in game right now??
10% per hour?
what do each of the robot heads look like
Seriously.... this dump is coming in from tons of folks right now, giving players 100 echo seeds.
About 9.5 ish based on the last 3h.
!tier
@vital spire
@brisk plover What do you think about this Echo seed thing??
I think it's just like every other community thing?
Ooh, it keeps track of how many souls you’ve personally contributed now
And lets you put in 10 at a time.
let me know when it is the time
That’s the QoL stuff we love
what are Crystalized Hearts used for other than fixing your multi-tool within the Exp.
I've tossed enough souls into the maw of Artemis, I am tired of feeding them
You need one for one of the very last blueprints, no other use I know of.
they look pretty
i suppose i could find someone on the Anomaly that looks newish, gift them.
Everyone gets at least one, most people will probably use it on their weapon right off the bat tho.
89% full now so I guess it's getting there....
Collecting souls; when did NMS turn into Dark souls?
good idea
its world of warcraft shadowlands, we are throwing souls into the maw of artemis
*Atlas
well Nada right now
only difference is the story isnt complete trash lol
Blizzard could learn from Hello Games
Time to go dump some seeds.
they won’t. Blizzard sucks
you know what im bored, time to condemn more souls to Nada's windows 98 laptop
!tier
@worldly cargo
Kewl
Have they used that room before now? I guess so right?
its used during the Artemis questline, wont spoil anything but my god that was a hard choice for me
I completed it it’s just been a longtime
oh yeah I remember now
!tier
@vast heart
I sat their for 30 minutes contemplating the morality
I never wanna do that again
game is reading 0% again on my client.
Nada and Polo said I did the right thing but it hurt and I only knew them for 5 hours
anyway more souls for the microsoft machine coming up
!tier
@vast heart
If the universe is a simulation, maybe Artemis can be transferred from her simulation to ours one day
nearly halfway to full convergence, lets get hustling traveler-friends
I dropped off my 50 already
dropped in 196 seeds
out hunting echos rn
146 wasted, per earlier comments. 50 limit per user per day
I thought I read somewhere the limit was 50 but I'm thinking that's not the case.
planet Usaling is in gavitational anomaly storm rn
why do you think that's not the case?
Gravity storms are a massive nuisance
I show when I went to drop offf I had done more than 50
Or are they just not counted after 50 yet the game says it?
yeah, but the 50 cap, as i understand it, pertains to how much you can budge the game towards the goal.
really? so after 50, it would gray those options out, and you've have to come back later?
it means you have to collect more echo seeds
what leads you to believe this?
because I have deposited 267 souls
okay. but perhaps past 50, they stop advancing the progress. there'd be no way for you to tell.
that would make the expedition literally impossible, everyone would deposit their echo seeds and then not be able to make progress whatsoever
I have finally reached 200 deposited and am now learning it may have not done a thing.
I am hoping it did
Just do it how you wish. Stop at 50 or keep going.
theres only so many people that play expeditions
That's a good point. I did a thing even if it was for naught.
someone posted earlier that they had sussed out that it was capped at 50 per day per player (perhaps per save, who knows?) by data-mining.
This is my first time at being so close to completion on an expedition. I have sat internet so multiplayer stuff is awful at times.
ok per day makes sense
I started a new save to get both heads
if it does it does if it doesnt it doesnt imma deposit 1000 souls and no one can stop me
I did the same, just in case.
!tier
@mental bough
Did anyone experience other players gifting a ton of Echo seeds. At one anomoly it was insane with so many crowded around the terminal and getting 100 seeds
we are currently 89% community upload progress
NICE!
Alot of people getting seeds dumped on em.
People probably duping and handing em out to speed things up.
@lime plume Yeah, that's what I figured. I was getting worried HG would not count any of it.
After the goof up of ODS being down so long, they ain't gonna stop us now, lol.
LOL!!
we can do this, lets make the big push!
They eased up on alot after it was out back online.
!tier
@vast heart
We are lifeboat!
What's the deal with there being two missions that are identical? The Anomalous Research and Sentience Echo. I've looked at it again and again, and I can't grasp why they'd make it so confusing like that.
what were their goals?
damnn tier 5 is 51% already? yall fast
they're the missions for the Sentience Echo turn ins. that's it.
Do the twitch rewards go away? I don’t see them in my expedition QS merchant
i thought when cthulhu rose all would be darkness and pain... nothing's changed
disabled in this expedition for some reason
Ah I see
One is the actual expedition milestone, the other is the usual community mission, both of them being there is probably just an oversight
What someone in the Nexus has the helmet already
how’d they do dat!
PC player UniKr0niC69
There was a bug that allowed people to turn in the stuff early.
Ah I see
yeah, that was so confusing.
The patch they added later locks the character out of finishing the expedition tho.
Just that character, not the whole account.
sure about that, Felix?
I think they just switched them off for expedition saves lol to stop us getting an advantage
You can go scroll back through the patch notes. I won't stop ya.
But from what I understood that is the case.
Man... I'm gonna hafta play a third run.
ladies and gentlemen we have hit 90% community upload progress
You did it on two runs?
Well you can wait and see first, but if I am right, yes you'll need to go in for a third rodeo.
which day was the fix for that on? For PC.
How do you build the Crystalize Drone once plans in hand??
Dunno. Was about the same day console players got access to the expedition.
ahhh looks like the community goal will be well done by the time I'm home today
I put a few seeds in last night ❤️
So it was a couple days after it started for the pc and mac players.
hrm... i'll have to go back over the patch notes.
I’m starting to think they’ll never make any pants or gloves better than the cloth ones
Fun playing on the Mac laptop in bed, main play being gaming PC in basement, I must say.
cross-save
It's been a bit since then, so I could be getting my details mixed up. I don't have the best memory.
!tier
@worldly cargo
Rad
Here is the update: "Fixed an issue that could cause the assembled Construct to offer its final choice too early in Phase 5 of the expedition, before the completion of the community goal in Sentience Echo. Note: until the community goal is completed, players who have already spoken to the Construct and made this choice early will be unable to redeem the rewards earned and their Ignition milestones will remain locked + encrypted."
But it says "until the community goal is completed"
Has no one built the Crystalized Drone?
I'm assuming it's built like any other basebuilding item
So I don't think it's a lockout, @lime plume
Ah, guess that is where I got my wires crossed. We will see then.
you just put them in your base. they look like the crystals you break for pruple crystal stuffs
I haven't yet, what's the issue?
I personally started a second one anyways myself.
we are so close, we can do this!
it'll be done by the time i wake up tomorrow
!tier
@whole iris
50 echo seeds going in rn
Wow we almost got it done
Down to only 8% an hour. Hopefully it picks up.
Probably would've been done if console hotfixes were up
are we going to get this cool jetpack for all our saves?
yea
You can get it on all saves
I don't think I have it. Unless it doesn't have to be claimed
You just need to find those scrapper camps and interact with the terminal like you did
oooh it's not specifically from the expedition
Thr jetpack was part of thr last update. Interceptor
how do I find the scrapper camps while not in the expedition, since it's been leading me to them? And what triggers it exactly?
So, been a minute since I've done it but I think you need to find a dissonant planet then you can either stumble across one or maybe kill enough corrupted to drop a item that marks one. I'm sure someone knows exactly how it #nms-questions
I did visit one during a quicksilver daily, shame I didn't realize it
I think it's an echo locator you need to find though
The big crap droids seem to have a chance to drop one
Also if you fight enough sentinels in space and destroy the sentinel cruiser it'll drop an item that leads you to a sentinel class ship. And by proxy a dissonant world
then how do you find the camps at that point?
Kill sentinels until you get an echo locator
the ones that drill the earth
!tier
@thorny turret
Not even, just corrupted droids. The bigger they are the more likely
ahh
oh, alright then
It doesn't take very long. The community had the interceptor update down to a T within an hour
yea I fought a whole set of waves of them but most were tiny
yeah you should have a pretty good chance with the drillers
okay thanks!
!tier
@tight verge
Going slow now?
I love this, the last hotfix was supposed to have improved accessibility to this goal. However, because its been staggered launch again and console don't have it yet this goal will be met before console even see this patch. Make it make sense
consoles don't have it yet?
Nope, its doing the same thing as when this expedition launched
I suspect xbox to get it later today and PS to get it in a day or two
I really hope this staggered launch doesn't stick around its been nothing but an infuriating colossal grievance
weird, i think i saw people saying today that every platform is doing it already
So we can put em in 1 at a time
PC can do 10 a time
That's why it went so quickly
And it wouldve been done now if, like it used to be, all platforms got the update at the same time
!tier
@pearl veldt
So close
And as much as I hate to say it, I think this is a deliberate staggered launch to prevent this goal from being met too quickly
My expedition save is glitching and it's telling me that the progress is at 0%
You can do it boys
I had to check to be sure the progress didn't just reset.
oh u mean placing multiple seeds instead of one at a time, right?
but why
Cube is right we should have all got the patch
This whole goal was an artificial timegate for the ARG thing which clearly they wanted suspense for so they put a speed bump in with this goal. If the patch went up for everyone at once it'd have been done in a few hours
This way its been dragged to a couple more days since the patch
doubtfull it was deliberate, it just adds to the already sky high confusion and irritation
well yeah, they do that with the other community ones too. itll be done soon enough
Whatever the reasoning. This expedition went from being one of the better ones to near the bottom of the list quite quickly
!tier
@still prairie
Are we almost done lol
ye
Regardless, expeditions are time limited events. Personal progression should never be timegated in a time limited event especially in the final stage
definetely agree
i firmly believe you should be able to choose to play any expedition you want at any time
and that's also true
!tier
@worldly cargo
then they can experiment with in game timers and arg stuff without making players feel too much fomo
It's not even fomo, we know what we're supposed to be getting. It's more the irritation that the content. The update we should have gotten will be effectively pointless by the time we actually get it
Defeats the point of it entirely
we agree.. i think it should have 2 finish qualifications.. you can turn in X number of echo's. and turn it in to finish but be locked out of a bigger rward. or contribute the whole time and get something better
you simply shouldn't be waiting for your hard earned reward for a month, this is how jobs work, not video games
Well there's still the optional missions and we don't know what those will be
Exactly, the full 100% should have been the optional tasks for a major reward
@severe whale
!tier
@cyan arrow
i assume the optional missions represent the choice between two helmets
it is
That'd make sense
Usually the optional missions in previous expeditions were repeatable indefinitely
Which by the way, hard save before you make a choice. Claim one then load that hardsave and claim the other apparently
surely what i'm planning to do
I suppose it's just choosing either the atlantid or crimson helmet that is the optional choices?
Explain a hard save? Is that with a save beacon or something else?
So these days either a save point or jumping in then out the ship
(Now we have autosaves you see)
yeah i'm still of the habit even today of jumping in and out of my ship before logging out
even though i don't need to anymore
I don't trust what past me did so I let present me take care of it again
Sure I get into a vicious cycle of doubt and uncertainty but at least my game eventually is saved
Autosaves can and often are a saving grace, I'll give it that. But they're far from ideal to save progress before logging out. They're just not often or reliable enough across all games. If you can manually save then always do that
This is the way
Minecraft has the best one, autosave every time you go in the menu
Minecraft is good for it, but I'd personally prefer a save point as well
wait we don't need to exit our ship for saves anymore?
Technically no.. but you should do it anyway
I still would even if you just said autosaves existed
But yeah it does auto saves periodically now as well
!tier
@tight verge
Probably won't finish until tomorrow. 😦
i can't believe it took an entire week to get there
Be done by this evening in the UK
it's because each person's contributions are capped to 50
Maybe even by noon actually
it'll be done today
depends on your timezone
I mean it's always today somewhere, right?
truely
Maybe the 7 people playing in New Zealand will carry us. 😄
if it's only couple of hours away, then i'll risk saying that it'll be today mostly everywhere 🙂
then a update resets progress 😃
But every hour that passes becomes someone's tomorrow.
140 minutes until tomorrow for me
Did something happen to the community research?
if it's showing 0%, that's a visual bug
it'll refresh
Ok thank god
I restarted game and it fixed it
what if it wasnt. 1/5 0%
RIP
it is 👀
timegates are fun, let's just do it all over again, yeah!
actually, yeah we kinda do 100% know :V
like, even without the bug, there's still a choice and two helmets you can get 👀
from a choice
Honestly I'm just glad we don't have to wait 3 more weeks for this to finish
would be kinda funny if the next expedition did :V
heh
The people just completely set off 👀
!tier
@severe whale
lies
I don't think I like it when there's a community goal for these.
i've told them in the feedback questionare not to do it again
Honestly this was a first time they made it mandatory, or so I heard.
for bonus stuff.. sure.. but not for main effing milestones
no it was mandatory for leviathan
but at the same time you got rewards every time you did the thing\
Only the first tier was mandatory
The rest was for upgraded classes on memory fragments
Yo
63%, wish i could stay up to see it reach 100. ill be many hours late unfortunately, but.. can't wait to get the construct parts!
somehow, it's actually made me more.. hyped
!tier
@fervent patrol
we are close to the..... singularity..... again
Same here!
tomorrow morning then i guess
most likely
i just want to see gek with construct parts
i want to see if it makes them tall
if it is, i might change my race to a gek
!tier
so i can be the elusive tall gek
I mean you can be that now if you have the golden helmet
don't think you can put them on gek
it shows it as an option for Gek in the apperance editor
it shows as an option in the editor for every race
cmon someone just did it a second ago
Both of them just got wiped

@safe olive Please use this command in #bot-spam.
kek
mmmmhmmm..... rusty gunna die t'way he liv'd
Lmao-
did they take it away? like 35% left on the final tier and no more tier command?
no, people just used it too much recently
ohhh does it have a cooldown?
why aren't people just looking up a few messages in chat?
to see stuff like this
that's what I said when I asked them to add it was to make a cooldown so it doesn't get used too much
and this
here.. i'll help you all alot
@worldly cargo Please use this command in #bot-spam.
yeah im also using the galactic atlas
now you don't has to spam
its still 64
that means that either it's on a cooldown which is reasonable or that there is a mod who just disabled it when we have like 35% or so left of the final tier which would toally suck
well good job making it worse
just.. dont use !tier every 10 seconds
well if I'm the one who ruined it that would be fitting because I'm the one who asked the mods to add it in the first place, I both improved and ruined the channel, sorry/welcome
go look at it in bot spam
no it was someone else
I only did it just then to see if it was disabled for everyone or just the person who did it, again it could either be a cooldown or it could be permanently disabled, either way would have yielded the same result
ok
I'm just saying I hope it's a cooldown and that it wasn't disabled right before the actual mission is fully completed
it was always in bot spam
plus, galactic atlas exists
if it was disabled completely here then that's what I mean
Tier?
so it just means that instead of doing the command people will just be spamming screenshots when people constantly ask
or they'll try, see that it says go to bot spam, and go there
people have an instinctive hate for spam but in this instance spam of a command is easier than spam of screenshots
like half of this channel is just people running the command
if they can't run the command they'll just ask
yeah they dont want the channel to be that way
it's not like people will message less
and my original point is that it will only matter for a few more hours
why take it away now?
once again its not gone
just go to the channel it tells you to go when you say
!tier
@median harbor Please use this command in #bot-spam.
it's like if they stopped filming a race right before they cross the finish line and said go to another channel to see the end
not really, no, because races are fast
you could miss the end whilst you switch to the other channel
but, going to bot spam isnt gonna cost you the other 35%
its gonna cost you like 3 seconds to click the button in the message
there's no point talking about this with you as you are not the one who disabled it since you're not a mod, I need to talk to whoever disabled it, no offense
im just trying to say that it doesnt matter that it was "disabled" here, but you seem to not be accepting anything im saying and kinda just ignoring it
!tier
@true topaz Please use this command in #bot-spam.
lol been full on shut down cause people kept spamming it
yes exactly
it's 65% btw
I understand your opinion, my opinion was if that was the case why was it enabled here in the first place, and why would you disable it right before the mission ends instead of just letting it end and then disabling it and just letting people know it's over? they added it because I asked and I understand people spamming it but I just don't understand the timing of removing it, especially when it doesn't seem like it was being used any less than it was earlier
we can disagree, but I still would like to know the reasoning for the decision from the one who made the decision
no no im not stating my opinion, its literally a fact that the command wasnt disabled. in this channel yeah, but people can still easily access and use it
its not like you no longer have access to the command
i dont see what the huge issue is with just going to bot-spam and typing it again
right and again I'm talking about how it was disabled in this channel, you're opinion is that it doesn't matter that it was disabled in this channel because it's still in bot spam, my opinion is that it does matter because the mission is almost fully completed and we've had it this whole time
neither are fact
up to 66% now🙏
less hype in this channel, that's about it
I personally value having the tier command in this channel, if you don't that's fine, there's nothing wrong with thinking differently than I do, I'm just saying I would like to know from the person who disabled it in this channel why they chose to do it now instead of just waiting out the tiny part of the mission that's left
Just added 20 seeds
it's like literally hours until it's done

Yes
the daily contribution cap is 50 on pc
it's only 10 on console I think
!tier
@dry escarp Please use this command in #bot-spam.
you're not required or obligated to do 50 per day just letting you know lol
anything after 50 won't count
you can do as many as you like but only 30 more will count yeah
Steam version see how many contributed echoes ?
So we only have 50 per day?
Or 50 per save?
per account
Ah
And per day ?
Ah ok
if you do any more it won't count toward the overall goal but you can still do it to add to your total number contributed if that matters to you
I should start grinding then lol
saw someone post a screenshot that they had uploaded like 2000 and thought oof
because the cap was only 10 per day but they upped it to 50 like today or yesterday
How do you check that anyways?
Cap has been 50 since at least the 11th
I guess depending on your time zone I suppose it was 2 or 3 days ago yeah
Your personal number is shown on the prime terminal
I'm not sure if that works on pc
Over 60h ago, so yeah
I am always suspicious os these assumptions people make from datamining
in what way?
gaming companies started putting fake leads
because the way they found that out is not 100% sure and relies on some assumptions
!tier
@tight verge Please use this command in #bot-spam.
like. do you know how many things people found in data mining warframe we still havn't seen?
for example maybe that 50 limit only kicks in in certain conditions
it's 66%
go look at https://galacticatlas.nomanssky.com/poi/sentience-echo they removed the bot here cause of spam
its the same jump to conclusion from the post that said the progress was on a timer
or yknow, the bot spam channel as linked in the message
if the tier bot is once again bugged should we tag someone?
it's not bugged
What proof did the timer assumption have
a date
it got moved because y'all couldn't look at time stamps and would spam it 2 minutes after the last time
it displays 1/5 and 0%
on the save file
ik, check the bot spam, it displays that we have tier 1/5 and 0%
turns out its a date used to trigger the next community research, which HG can push back or foward
Run !Tier in #bot-spam for latest progress.
less than 2 minutes, ive seen it in the same minute
if you inspected the memory of the game you knew they were counting the total contributions so it didn't really make any sense
@median harbor broke our progression.. string'm up 😛
If I recall the daily limit post at least had some more believable proof with past examples of something similar, it’s also just a more believable system in general
it'll fix in a bit
93% overall
neat
I'm trying to stay up until it's complete
Probably gonna compete while I’m sleeping
ayo late night crew lol
Would stay up but I gotta be up early
eh i keep vampires hours.. this is middle of the day for me
sure it's 12:42 at night. but this is when i'm most awake
Feel that, but I try to keep a remotely reasonable schedule
timezones:
I'm a dad and my schedule is whatever my son's schedule is lol but my wife works late so we all have late schedules
CST
there is certainly a properly named attribute, but we don't know how its actually used in the backend , so its has a daily cap (maybe) its a more accurate affirmation
@arctic beacon Please use this command in #bot-spam.
My dad is the other way around, he insists my schedule should be as close to his schedule as possible
no im saying theres timezones, aka it could be like the middle of the day for someone
well yeah lol i made that point earlier when someone asked if "we would be done tonight"
i was like "depends on where you live"
I mean I'm a stay at home dad so I have no schedule myself, I just work around what everyone else is doing
I'm just a girl who doesn't sleep wanting this damn expedition to be progressable. 😂
Here it is 7:46 (CEST). it will take some time for us to contribute our echo seeds to complete the event. Most people like to gamble in the late afternoon and evening🙃😅

The expedition started just as my PC was fixed and I wanted to speedrun the expedition to get back into the flow of NMS, but of course this chicanery said "F*ck you, wait like the others"

Probably.

Well... Just dumped off another 14. Now my personal contribution stands at 100 Souls.
soa bout 6 hours
Soa.. a name i havent heard in a LONG time. 😄
i know the devs said turn ins matter but... seems too consistent
a varying rate over a short period of time doesn't mean it's not consistent considering it was estimated to be 5% an hour 2 days ago
🤷♀️ Someone who doesn't listen to reason can't be given proof. I concede.
So we need to wait for 5h?
6-ish hours, most likely.
Maybe u should go to sleep
I didn't say I gave proof, just that it'd do you no good.
sure

Yes
i'm sorry but 94% is good enough for horseshoes handgrenades and psychotic AI brains...

Still salty, this fkn goal will be done and dusted by noon and Console didn't even get the patch in time to effectively support contributions
Like sure we pushed the tier past tier 1 when PC ods was down but after that feels like we got nerfed
? consoles have been able to contribute 
who told you otherwise
We have yes but not effectively with the recent 10 at a time
Since the patch the tier shot up. Our efficacy with this goal was rock bottom
10 at a time? huh?

Had consoles been able to do that yesterday when the patch reportedly went live this goal would have been finished yesterday evening UK time
Got school soon, so I won’t be able to do the expedition until I get back 😭
The thing’s definitely ending by midday uk time
morning all
i'm not seeing that on PS5, I can only submit 1 at a time unless I'm missing something
Yeah, we haven't got that patch, for whatever reason
Only pc I’m pretty sure, isn’t on Xbox for me
Console updates take a day or so to go through thanks to sony/m'icrosoft "approving" them
Only recently for HG used to be all consoles at once
Give or take a few mins
The update is not yet available for the Playstation
yea if theres no rush you just wait to push the pc version
By the time this update arrives, we'll be done 😆
Defeats the point don't it

@ashen shore Please use this command in #bot-spam.
What’s the update fixing?
But It's really annoying when you have to stuff each seed in there one at a time. 🙃
yeah I just submitted around 20 one at a time zzz
Confused. How does this limit console players from submitting more than 10 though? Are they locked after 10?
nah pc can just dump 10 at a time now
!tier
@thorny turret Please use this command in #bot-spam.
I dont know anything about limiting consoles
According to the latest update, Steam players can put 10 Echo Seeds in the Primus Terminal instead of just 1 each time. This is currently not possible on PS as the update is not yet available.
Consoles just dont have the option to give 10 . Only 1 at a time
we're up to 77% now
Thanks for clarifying. So console players still get to contribute as much as PC players, correct?
We nearly there finally i can practically boop it
Yes. Limits are the same
just a lot more effort

78%.
Hey guys
Does someone have a YouTuber that does Eli5 for the NMS lore
Expedition included
Because I only got like 40%
Tier will be in the next 2-3 hours at 100% ...
!tier
@high hedge Please use this command in #bot-spam.
79% tier 5
It's gonna never fill
Anyone kinda sad you can't build the sentience on your real save?
I want to expand my "real world"

20% moree
Ok, I played the expedition until... well, everyone else I guess.
So just to see if I got it right: I can't make the choice on the helmet just yet, is that so? Until tier 5 is complete, those milestones are unavailable, right?
!tier
@lapis ivy Please use this command in #bot-spam.
yes
Ok, got it!
Now I understand better why players were bothered by the wait lol.
Glad we are almost there.
Yeah, some of us been waiting days.
gotta remember to backup my save because I do not want to do the whole expedition again to get the other head
Just make sure you do a save by getting in and out of your ship before turning it in.
This exp is quite short imo
Hey, weird question, how do i do that and when do i do it?
Would that work?
If i get the 1st head and reload autosave would it bring me back and save the item i got?
Perhaps, it normally does for alot of things. Don't reload autosave tho, reload restore point.
If youre still not sure wait til it's done and others have tested it.
hi yes
I will probably do that
You plan on doing it as soon as its done?
have done it already
wYM?
It was bugged before and let people claim it.
i skipped the echo thing
Couldnt they have changed it whilst fixing the bug?
So what should i do from the moment the community thing is done
go to roboman
do the thing you dont want
restore
do the thing you want
get both things from the quicksilver shop
The heads are the optional ones?
yes
is there some kind of bug that let people have the head earlier? on the first day of this update?
dont take the expedition reward dont go in your ship
on like the first five
also saves that are from before the update are still compatible with the thing
like my restore point from the day before the update is still viable
i see
So just basically Enter Anomaly, talk to robot, finish one of the heads, restore savepoint do the other one and they should both be unlocked?
Hmm
Seems like a bug doesnt it?
Or is it a feature for people who dont want to do it twice?
What is the difference between restore points and auto saves?
Basically a bug they probably haven't bothered to fix cuz they don't see it as a problem.
Nevermind
Restore point is when you get in and out of your ship, or use a save beacon.
Restore point is prolly a manual save and auto happens naturally right?
It just syncs up whenever i do a restore point like get out of the ship right?
Yes.
I hate auto save in this game
Okay, you have been very helpful friend, THANK YOU
Others taught me here, just passing it on, lol.
I shall do so whenever i can as well
!tier
@somber sail Please use this command in #bot-spam.
Are there appearance modifiers in the Anomaly?
yes. You can change appearance there
Yes, one over on the right side, if you run straight past the quicksilver vendor.
Ooooh i see it, thank you
If you see a dude with a tree for a head, you're close.
The tree dude is the one for milestone data right?
Or animal or whatever
That guy
Sorry for all the random questions, but how do i get the Aeron Turbojet in my normal save?
Because i have it in the new expedition save
Gots to find a camp and unlock the terminal and I think it unlocks then
Can i even find the camps just regularly?
Tree dude wants random data. Milestone one is the brain dude, also close by.
In a non expedition save?
Yeah you can stumble across them on dissonance planets
ahh, but i found it so thanx
On a dissonance planet shoot the dissonance drill things that normally drop needles, til one drops a echo locator. Or you can stumble upon a camp by chance.
The locator is guaranteed to lead you to a harmonic camp, but its also not guaranteed to drop. May as well check out the gun and ship while you're there too.
Ahh, now i remember, i was tryna do it a while ago but the thing glitched and kept only spawning tier 2 waves endlessly

@onyx mica Please use this command in #bot-spam.

Doesn't it says 97% done ingame ?
97% of the global progression, 85% of the tier 5
Oh, ok, thank you
❤️
it's pretty close, I think 99% is the trigger point
Asume u cant get both helmets ”legally”? Cuz saw a vid that said u could reload at final step for both helmets but that its a bug
Yay let’s go 😄
That’s why I started second save to get different head after I claimed crimson version
If you wanna do it legit play it twice.
^this 😄
I mean its not long so i have no issues with that
Almost there!
I rather avoid doin exploits/bug abuse if i can so ty @lime plume @vale kayak
Guess after I get done drop pod hunting, I'll hop off my main and help out.
I can no longer contribute to the Echo hunt
Not like i can fix my terrain manip/ammo being infinite so i just say f it and continue 😅
I have uploaded 69 echos, and I cannot ruin this /hj
😂
Also can we talk about how the Construct only acts confused when you're looking
I have infnite fuel/ammo bug and im 99% sure that shit aint a difficulty setting
Poor fella got anxiety 😔
I talk to him and he's like "WHERE>? WHAT? SOUL?" and so on and so forth
but when I'm away from him?
I dont think ”discounted” fuel usage straight up removes manipulator drain lol
Actually it is.
I lowered difficulties but free wasnt an option in expedition
Minimum i had was discounted
So idk why my manipulator/ammo is infinite
Idk then, I am on my main save right now.
He's scrolling twitter while he waits for the uploads to finish.

@cerulean osprey Please use this command in #bot-spam.
Might just turn on multiplayer so someone can just dump some seeds on me, lol.
Last I checked should have it done in the next hour or so
I will allow myself to repeat the question I asked some time ago
It fluctuates.
For anyone in the game right now, does the game show the name for the Construct?
It did for me but I dont know if thats a bug or intentional
Given it had one of the titles used for Gek NPCs
Gonna jump on the anomaly and check.
!tier
@vast heart Please use this command in #bot-spam.
says assembled construct
wahts weird is the tracker in the expedition log is different than the progress reported in the tooltip on the main screen
Jesus, i take 2 days off from gaming amd we shot up to almost complete
I was there to turn it to 97%
Nice
yeah says 97& for me but 88% in the progress bar
I did my part lol
Main screen shows the total.
Across all 5 tiers.
You can also see it at the bottom of the mission.
So after the expedition. Can we log into our normal save and get rewards from expedition?
You can do that now actually.
you have to claim it at the reward guy
you dont have to wait to the end
Whatever you already earned.
Ah okay
But yeah, for all of it you can just jump right in once this is done.
Yup, if you got phase rewards done, you can redeem them already
Like the jetpack trail or new helmet (Wayfarers)
Hell ya
You can actually claim them during your expedition too if you wanna see how they look.
Been running around with the trail and wayfarer since I unlocked em.
I unlocked them in the expedition but didn't know I can use them in normal
I spawned as a pink Anomaly, I got pink helmet and purple trail to match now
The phase rewards and main rewards are available on every save you own
What's with one of the mandatory expedition quests being a community goal? Seems like something that would be better off being an optional quest. Just waiting on that to finish stage 5.
Past, future, any mode
For some reason both times I was black and green, probably cuz Xbox.
I've donated 11 echoes so far and that didn't seem to make the percentage budge at all.
Because the total is like in the millions.
They better be ready with that update once the expedition is done
Lol
People gon be sooooo mad
That's ridiculous. Imagine if someone lived somewhere remote and couldn't sync their total with everyone else lol.
HOW CLOSE ARE WE
About to hit 90% tier 5
Close but far
Currently 97% it seems.
Pretty sure they wouldn't be able to play expedition in the first place if they were that remote.
@stable onyx well I'm close on that with crappy Sat service from Viasat. LOL
I dropped nearly 100
Are we on 90% or 97% because I'm confused
It has to be able to synch with the server.
Nintendo switch still doesn't even have the expedition
Expedition are sort of global/shared savegame
WHAT
97 is the total.
The game mode is literally called a "community expedition". Being online and requiring other people kind of fits that
Oh
90%is the tier progress.
Expectation of single-player or offline play is unrealistic
And we are on the very last tier.
No expedition before this one made it mandatory to collaborate, though.
10% left on tier 5 friends let's goooo
I wonder if they are gonna apply some sort of diminishing return
Man it's a shame we can't bring the expedition quests to the main save
No, the network traffic seems to say a fixed number required
Oh at 99 % you ate gonna need 10billion seeds
It doesn't work like that, unless they change it at the last second. Which they won't.
I'll just be happy when it's done, I want whatever the next thing is
People would know and everyone would be absolutely pissed.
Lolol
are we there yet
Probably will be added to the anomally normally in a future update, I'd imagine.
They're going to have to put out some pretty hefty updates to this game before September
So I'm imagining big content updates coming very soon
I'm sure that's what this is all leading up to
Why do you say that?
That's when that other game comes out
Gotta be able to compete
Starfield???
I would'nt even play that game at launch
It’s a Bethesda game
I was trying not to say the name but I knew we all knew what it was lol
I don't think any updates will change how well it competes, but that's #other-games
I wouldnt be surprised if we got ship customization soon tbh
I would like that
For a few reasons, I don't think you'll ever see ship customization in NMS
I kind of like being not able to customize ship. It gives a reason to explore
@oak kiln @viscid swift let's move there
Even if its just paint jobs, Ship Customization is something i've wanted for awhile
like they changed the system ship as far as I can tell, from what it was a few years ago, now we have named ship parts in the memory
and those parts dont appear if you change the main cockpit type via save edit
Just realized there was 100 bases on the system I warped into, and noped out of there.
Guess imma need to warp, cuz I forgot which system I was using before.
It's why as soon as this expadtion is over I am galaxy sharing with my Xbox account and getting as far away as I can from there lol
Mamy pepole want it. Me included but it needs to be balanced so ship hunting community will not be out of work.
Run !Tier in #bot-spam for latest progress.
I was in the system with the planet Hene. It was a decent pickup for seeds. But it was a fire planet.
I wouldn't mind it so much, if all the on screen clutter didn't make my xbox lag even more than it already does.
ITS THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
to not make ship hunting obsolete you can make the customization parts a random reward from scrapping ships
It's why I moved to PC
Damn @lime plume
And custom ship should be
X class- chance to have worse stats than C or better than S
I thought we'd be done by now. I wonder if they throttled the count.
back to the topic, can you just keep feeding seeds to the terminal or there's a cap contribution as I heard?
50 per day
Progress seemed to be faster pre midnight
50 confirmed?
Yeah, this is an odd hour. Happened last night/morning too. Well for me.
But you can still donate even after reaching cap. It will just dont do anything
Sadly I have to get ready for work IRL lol
This one has 5 bases, I can deal with that, lol.
Nice @lime plume
Good luck out there. We are lifeboat! So one of the HEX sequences I interpreted said.
Cya Travelers

Same as C or better than S
Nah .worse than C. To Keep the grind up
Hyperdrive range: -1.6
Or 1 xd
Jokes on you, that was a thing in game
Cargo space 3 xd
Expedition 8 had ships spawning with no hyperdrive
To force players to use freighter for warping
So the stats on the ship listed hyperdrive range of 1
Polestar . Yep
What platform are you on? If on PC, running any mods?
Xbox 1.
A decade old junker.
Idk what it is about the expedition, but I don't crash nearly as much on my normal save.
WEll maybe just a case of increased strain on the CPU because of all multiplayer thing
