Yea you need to activate the infestation

A huge bug will appear

massive beetle

[swift anvil]

find the larvae and squish it

thatll piss mama off

[shut pasture]

Why does it take longer to install the update than download it on ps4 😂 I just want to continue my expedition

[swift anvil]

ever update your hdd to ssd?

thats probably why if not

[little idol]

Oh duh silly me why didn't I think about

Oh wait

[shut pasture]

Lol

[little idol]

I couldn't even find the location again if I wanted to, because like I said, when I select the mission and have it active in my log, it shows me NO information. No waypoint, nothing.

[swift anvil]

fr though , sata ssds are cheap cheap these days, its well worth it to do that. lots of guides on yt

[solemn niche]

im at the location

[swift anvil]

try verifying game files?

[solemn niche]

dont know how i could show you

[swift anvil]

could also try swapping out of the expedition and back into it

[shut pasture]

It's a PS4, but thanks

[little idol]

I'll give that a try in a few for sure

[little idol]

That's also a good idea ngl

[swift anvil]

i saw that. and thats why i said that. you can upgrade to a ssd.

i did it on my old ps4

[solemn niche]

a SSD will help a ton on cosole

console

[shut pasture]

Lol I mean before I bother I would just get a PS5

[swift anvil]

i mean 30 bucks vs like 500 but sure

[solemn niche]

yea marketplace has them for like $300 or less

[ashen shore]

Hello, I’m new to No Mans Sky and I just completed the new Expedition. If I leave it do I lose all my progress and things I’ve unlocked.

I don’t have any other save

[solemn niche]

you can get them used cheap

[swift anvil]

(i dont keep up on console prices)

[swift anvil]

you can swap back and forth to the expedition and your main save via the nexus

[thorn crane]

same thing is happening to me, i scanned the creature on eardog and got close to it like i was told to but it never counted the milestone

[ashen shore]

Thank you 🙏

[swift anvil]

np

[shut pasture]

Weird. My audio was VERY loud when I loaded in but when I got in my minotaur it went to normal

[lethal mirage]

I've been having a glitch where you cant see the brood queen

[little idol]

Yeah, same

[lethal mirage]

Was able to kill them but they didn't load in

[shut pasture]

That's the final boss, cloaked brood queen

[hollow idol]

Silly question, do i have to wait till the community goal is finished to close my Expedition character?

[lethal mirage]

Think so but idk

[hollow idol]

Oki 😔

[sleek siren]

the thing is it appears to be the QS shop unlock. so that should become available for exeveryone to unlock, expedition or not

[trail rock]

Is there any insectoid type body??

[shut pasture]

What's the trick to getting 900 resources in one burst?

[trail rock]

Use your minotaur laser

[knotty tangle]

Organic Rocks

[shut pasture]

Hm pk

[vocal spire]

Reports of genetically modified bugs made to be as large as planetary archives have arisen, although evidence has been inconclusive it is recommended that all liquidators gear up and prepare for any potential threat to the galaxy and it's freedom

[shut pasture]

I keep getting to like 500-600 carbon and them hitting a rock which seems to reset it

[trail rock]

Key is to not let go of the button,just select the milestone when u start mining and never let go until its 900/900

[swift anvil]

20 percent!

[lilac crane]

anyone know the name of the first system in the expedition? i think i need to go back to one of those planets to scan a predator

[midnight falcon]

how to process eggs into nanites?

refiner?

[hollow idol]

Im not having luck with the storm milestone 🧍

[trail rock]

Should be in your discoveries,I forgot but it only has 2 planets

[lilac crane]

i think i just found it, thank you

[swift anvil]

snowblind?

[trail rock]

4th or 3rd site bring you to a hot storms planet just walk during a storm

[hollow idol]

Oh

[trail rock]

Its sigma something for the planet with the deadly fish

[lilac crane]

ah ok

[little idol]

Okay so if anyone else encounters this issue, going off and doing the FIFTH purge mission was enough to un-stick the mission

[rain lance]

I found the predator that worked for me

[lilac crane]

omg i am IN the system i was looking for lmao

[gloomy raven]

How do you find those alluring undersea treasures?

[little idol]

Well on a different note, anyone have any advice on how to find a dissonant planet for the expedition?

[little idol]

Just go to any world with deep waters, land on the water, and scan, you're looking for a red icon

[thorn crane]

use your analysis visor, it's a red icon with three circles in it

[gloomy raven]

has to be deep water?

[little idol]

Well you're not gonna find it in a puddle haha

[gloomy raven]

found this rather pleasant shallow sea on a world that isn't trying to freeze or burn me to death

[woeful niche]

The community mission seems to imply that only 50 kills per day per person. Is this correct?

[shut pasture]

THANK YOU it also helps to know that the count on screen isn't the same as the count for the milestone

[trail rock]

Soo it worked? Happy to help if it did ^^

[trail rock]

Enough to fully submerge yourself, the second planet in the system we start in has both deep enough water and an apex predator

[shut pasture]

Yep had to get the on screen count almost to 2000 but worked a treat

[trail rock]

Dissonant systems still hold a dissonant planet just look around while you jump I ran into one while going to a dropsite

[trail rock]

Glad it still worked out

[bleak ether]

which one?

[little idol]

And how do I find out if a system is dissonant? Like, where will it show it?

[little idol]

2170

[bleak ether]

ok thanks

[lethal mirage]

Says so on the galaxy map

One of the planets will have corrupted sentinels

[little idol]

Well I figured that much lol

[trail rock]

When you jump in the galaxy map there is a small bit of info about the system "dissonant" will show in the place where you would usually see the teem "water"

Term*

[little idol]

Ahhhhhhhhhh okay, thank you!

[trail rock]

Just look around the galaxy map instead of instantly jumping 🙂

[lethal mirage]

I think the 5th drop point is dissonant?

Well one of them is

[shut pasture]

Ok now just gotta destroy walkers

[trail rock]

Last drop point Veridescent planet w aggressive sentinels, pick up gravitino ball kill sentinels reload restore point repeat

[gloomy trail]

What should i put to start the expedition btw

[lethal mirage]

Start new save

[shut pasture]

Yeah figured it wouldn't be hard to make them spawn

[gloomy trail]

Why?

[lethal mirage]

Best experience

Imo

[gloomy trail]

Oh ok

[shut pasture]

Only issue would be my own skill

[gloomy trail]

Do i get the rewards accross saves tho

[lethal mirage]

Yes

[gloomy trail]

Oh ok

[trail rock]

An advanced mining laser lol,honestly nothing it gives you all you need,I gave myself only 1000 oxygen and 1000 tritium

[shut pasture]

Yeah this expedition is easy enough that a new save is worth it

[gloomy trail]

Nice

I hope there an expedition centered around freighters at some point ngl

Because id like the base system in those to get updated a bit

[shut pasture]

Fyi I found a nice crashed class A solar sail on the 1st drop planet, placed a comm ball at it. Was very helpful to get rid of that starting hauler

[midnight falcon]

how do I heal? HEalth is the + symbol and white line is shield?

[trail rock]

White bar=shield +'s=health, eat food or just wait it regenerates

[trail rock]

Is it golden?

[gloomy trail]

Oh how do i find it then

[shut pasture]

@gloomy trail do "dropzone one" and check the communication markers on the planet it sends you to

[burnt needle]

How does one get 900 resources in one burst?

[thorn crane]

minotaur laser

[trail rock]

Disable multi-player in network setting reload save and go there

[storm fiber]

How do you find places where ships are crashed on a planet?

[trail rock]

By accident usually

[shut pasture]

Fly your ship in 1st person and look for square blips on the HUD radar

[trail rock]

Also select that milestone once you start mining,it helps

[trail rock]

I learned something new,are they always ships?

[shut pasture]

Or use distress signal charts

[shut pasture]

They can be other player ships or your exocraft. Also flying NPC ships show up. It's easy to tell though. Some of the crashes are NPC events and not claimiable ships

[midnight falcon]

@trail rockokay how do I replenish the +, I cooked meat and that didn't do it but it did do the shield

[trail rock]

Regenerates on its own usually

[trail rock]

Thank you lol that's nice to know

[shut pasture]

Yeah salvaging ships is one of my favorite activities in the game

[midnight falcon]

okay I will check later just worried I went on a killing spree lol, got very low

whats runaway mould for

[trail rock]

I have a vulture,I used to love searching for interceptors but for now the vulture is my fav ship

[trail rock]

Refine into nanaites inside any refiner

[midnight falcon]

ah okay lol no idea

I just learned that the eggs do same thing

[trail rock]

A lot of things become nanites surprisingly lol

[gloomy raven]

someone was asking how to find dissonant systems?

[trail rock]

@little idol ^

[rocky kernel]

Can I do more than one expedition save per account? So multiple expedition saves? I want to play one with my daugher but also on my own when she can't play. I am playing on Steam right now but could play on my xbox account if cannot do more than one per account on Steam.

[midnight falcon]

have you tried making another save to see? I can try in a second

[rocky kernel]

Oh, no I haven't I can try but wasn't sure if it was going to cause problems having more than one.

[tacit reef]

I know it's RNG, but ~30 Brood Mother kills and not a single helm yet?

[rocky kernel]

Never done expeditions before

[trail rock]

You definetly can on a diffrent save

[rocky kernel]

Cool

[trail rock]

I've finished the expedition and it gave me all helmets tho it seems like I have just one :/

[vocal rune]

wowowowow this has been my first expedition and its been an INCREDIBLE experience

[tacit reef]

Can you only get the helm drops AFTER the expedition is finished or during?

[sleek siren]

should be around 25% drop.
Not sure if the expedition has changed that, but thats what we were getting in worlds, outside expedition

[trail rock]

No clue,I'm thinking afterwards though

[humble bramble]

I got one from like one of the few queens I've killed outside expedition

Don't remember seeing any during

[midnight falcon]

Do I need to claim a frieghter at all for this expedition?

[tacit reef]

After.. hmm interesting

[trail rock]

Nope,I did claim one tho because a random encounter popped up

[midnight falcon]

ah I just request payment instead and got nanites

[dapper depot]

what rewards will i get for completing expedition 14?

[trail rock]

You took the better choice lol

[tacit reef]

So it seems you can't get the helms inside the expedition then.. Seems to be a lot of confusion about that. If it's 25% it's extremely unlikely I've not not one trying 30 times.

[shut pasture]

Anyone else disconnected from discovery services

[trail rock]

Yep

[sleek siren]

!ODS

[unkempt kraken]

@sleek siren

ONLINE DISCOVERY SERVICES

Status:

[sleek siren]

it is working very wonky

gonna be for a while

i was connected earlier then went down again

[trail rock]

Once you start if you hover over the milestones you should see the rewards, most notable would be bug armor and bug companion imo

[sleek siren]

not sure if it's stated somewhere.
I've not advance much in the expeditioon yet either to confirm it.
But we were doing fine outside the expedition

[unique marlin]

Is A class the best for ships? Sorry if that's stupid to ask 😭

[trail rock]

Second best, best is S but I'd take a good looking A class any day

[shut pasture]

Ship class can be upgraded too

[trail rock]

^

[unique marlin]

Thank you! I found this guy while exploring and I don't know if I should keep it or not

Sorry the image is sideways

[shut pasture]

And ships created from parts but I haven't messed with that personally

[trail rock]

Just starting out?

[unique marlin]

Yeah, I'm pretty new to the game

[shut pasture]

That's a good ship for the expedition

[trail rock]

Oh,feel free to take it but it would be a while till you can fix it

[trail rock]

I finished it with the hauler we all got 😅

[unique marlin]

Ty!!

[shut pasture]

It's not that hard to fix really. Dig up some buried technology and sell it. You can buy most of the repair materials at the space station terminal and from NPC pilots

[midnight falcon]

where do I turned in pirate corresponders ?

[blazing rapids]

mercenaries guild on stations, only some have it

[trail rock]

If you need help fixing it I can give u my friend code

[blazing rapids]

each region either has merc, traders, or explorers guild that dominate at stations

[unique marlin]

Ty! I realized now that I'm in the wrong channel, the questions abt that ship were meant for help, I'm on a normal save 😅

[shut pasture]

Lol

[trail rock]

No worries

[shut pasture]

Then I would suggest only fixing that ship enough to get it to the station and scrapping it

[unique marlin]

Thank you <3

[midnight falcon]

why cna't I use me 1/X uprade hings?

[shut pasture]

You'll get a lot of resources and can buy one you won't need to fix, or save the money until you can

[midnight falcon]

cause og It gave me 3 and I was able to use it 2 times

[trail rock]

Go to station try there

[lethal mirage]

Go to the multi tool upgrade thing at a station

[humble bramble]

You can just go to the station and use it at least

[midnight falcon]

omg I was at wrong one trying to get it to work lol

[lethal mirage]

Idk why it doesn't let you apply all of them

[midnight falcon]

its odd that I did 2 on the planet from inv but this requires the station?

[lethal mirage]

Same issue

[humble bramble]

Yeah it is weird

[lethal mirage]

I think it's a bit bugged

[humble bramble]

Not a huge deal ultimately

[lethal mirage]

Which is why you need to do your part liquidators! Purge the galaxy of bugs both litteral and in code!

[midnight falcon]

also I should just discrd upgrades that are the worst and I had to remove to install better due to upgrade limits right?

[lethal mirage]

Sell them for nanites

[trail rock]

^

[midnight falcon]

ah where I don't see it at the terminal to sell

[trail rock]

Technology Vendor

[lethal mirage]

Ye

[shut pasture]

Can we see our own contribution to liquidation?

[humble bramble]

I can't lie I still have to find my way around the new stations 😭 too used to the old ones

[trail rock]

50 and counting is most the objective will show as for counting kills

[humble bramble]

Iirc select the optional milestone

[shut pasture]

Gotcha thx

[lethal mirage]

Mercenary guild shows total kills for sentinels and bugs

Look at it in catalog

[shut pasture]

Ooh thx

[burnt needle]

How does one get corrupted sentinels to appear?

I'm on a dissonant planet and killed some sentinels next to a Dissonance Resonator but my kill count didn't go up.

[shut pasture]

Claiming phase 5 completion will not complete the expedition correct?

[trail rock]

Yep,u can safely return to main save or play onwards

[trail rock]

Try again? I've no clue if they are corrupted they should count

[shut pasture]

Yeah I want to keep doing my part

[burnt needle]

They were the walking ones

[trail rock]

Those small spiders counted for me though

[burnt needle]

After i killed them normal sentinels appeared and started a fight.

[trail rock]

Starship trooper

[trail rock]

They should all count towards the objective,try reloading the restore point or restarting the game

[humble bramble]

For the Vanguard

[shut pasture]

FOR KARL!

[lost summit]

Really short but I liked it

[trail rock]

You could theoretically endlessly farm points by engaging with a Brood mother and continuously killing her spawn or on a dissonant world by endless combat or on a regular sentinel one by not killing the sentinles which call in more

[burnt needle]

I want a Steve...

[little idol]

So if I end the expedition, but the community hits the goals, will I still get the upgrades, or should I just not end my expedition yet?

[trail rock]

Not ending it would be the safest bet imo

[little idol]

Yeah after some googling, it seems you can't get community rewards if you end early, which is a shame, because I have some stuff I'd love to bring over haha

[trail rock]

If you started from an existing save you can return to your main save via the anomaly without ending the expedition and claim your rewards via the quicksilver vendor

[little idol]

Right and that's fine and all, it's mostly the transferring items I was hoping to do haha

[subtle fox]

So I logged out last night at the fourth site to purge, and when I got in today it didn't trigger. Though it's my active quest, the icon doesn't come up anywhere, and I can't trigger the infestation. I have tried exiting the game and reloading to no avail. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get it to trigger? I'm on PS5.

[trail rock]

You can clone your multitool tho

[trail rock]

Tried changing objectives?

[little idol]

Yep that's... still not an item I'm trying to transfer haha (don't worry, I just have to wait, it's alright)

[trail rock]

What are you looking to transfer? 0.o

[midnight falcon]

I am very confused I thought second drop point is after warping to next galaxy after doing first one?

[subtle fox]

Yes.

[trail rock]

Next system rather than galaxy

[trail rock]

No ideea then

[midnight falcon]

I had to use warp fuel and went to the next one, is that not the same?

[arctic crystal]

How many bugs must we kill

[shut pasture]

All

Of

Them

[burnt needle]

All but Steve

[shut pasture]

Not Steve

[midnight falcon]

I used my hyperdrive to go to next point on the path for expedition, had to get off and coem back and it is sayign warp again

[humble bramble]

Does the system have a yellow marker on it

[little idol]

Some gold, storage upgrades, salvage data,

[midnight falcon]

oh its liek 3 systems over lol

[arctic crystal]

Unironically what’s the goal and what’s our progress

[little idol]

God a good bit stacked up during the expedition haha

[shut pasture]

Progress is 20%

[humble bramble]

Exterminate the bugs. Terminate the sentinels.

[shut pasture]

You can apparently do 50 per day

[gloomy moss]

Wait so I really shouldn’t have ended the expedition

[arctic crystal]

Actually? That’s not just where it stops counting?

[shut pasture]

Nobody's really sure

We don't have enough information to determine

[trail rock]

It's diffrent Systems are a conglomeration of Planets Galaxies are conglomerations of Systems

[little idol]

I thought I read on the popup for the optional objective it said something about how you've killed over 50 and that your progress counts? But I'm also clueless lol

how do I use the plasma launcher? ITs installed and UI says middle click but nothing happens

[trail rock]

Salvage data,i need more of that

[little idol]

Don't we all? Haha

[humble bramble]

Is it equipped

[midnight falcon]

it says plasma launcher next to ym scatter gun top right

[humble bramble]

Do you have ammo for it

[midnight falcon]

yea I used the ammo it gave me from reward

[humble bramble]

Weird idk then I don't use things that can kill me usually

[midnight falcon]

one of the milestones is to kill 4 bugs at once

[trail rock]

Right click, Middle mouse button is for changing it to smth else u may or may not have installed

[burnt needle]

On Xbox and PlayStation the button is L1/LB

[sleek siren]

alternative weapon / tech is by default right click

[humble bramble]

Not kill only hit

I did it with the stun grenade

[midnight falcon]

so weird lol I changed no bindings

[sleek siren]

it says switch alt

meaning middle button to switch alternative weapons

[trail rock]

Right click

[sleek siren]

firing is right click

[burnt needle]

You can have multiple alts just like you have multiple main fire modes.

[terse dust]

I don't think you have another alt weapon to start.

[sleek siren]

regardless, the option will always show

[terse dust]

I usually keep a combat scope on mine, so I kept accidentally launchin' 'nades.

Ye I know

[sleek siren]

The UI is giving the right cue, its just misinterpretation

[trail rock]

Same

So fun tho

[midnight falcon]

I do I have two but I didn't know it was right click to do it lol

okay haven't recovered +s at all and I am down to one lol

[whole niche]

Is the plasma launcher the "grenade" im supposed to hit 4 targets with for fire in the hole?

[humble bramble]

I used the stun grenades to do that

But it required me to install the plasma launcher

To even count it

As soon as I installed it the milestone popped

[whole niche]

Ty 👍

[swift flume]

Hey guys Im a returning player and everything is very confusing rn but I saw the liquidators expedition is happening and I want to know how to participate sorry if this is a faq I looked for a faq channel for a minute and didnt see it

[trail rock]

The Anomaly

Or a new save 🙂

[swift flume]

Is it at the nexus in the anomaly?

[trail rock]

Bot let you keep the expedition rewards,it's really short and straight-forward too

[trail rock]

Yep,right behind the missions nexus on the left of the quicksilver vendor

[swift flume]

Ah ok thanks a lot

[whole niche]

Stun grenades worked great,thanks 👍

[flat canopy]

Just so I'm clear, once I get my paltry 50 kills I can't contribute any more to the community kills mission right?

[midnight falcon]

so yeah I just die at part two cause the + don't seem to get replenished lol

[trail rock]

It says 50 and counting you definetly can continue doing your part

[shut pasture]

We don't know

[sleek siren]

I'm doing my part

it don't make sense to me they'd limit it to 50 tbh

[shut pasture]

But then why not keep counting?

[trail rock]

Ff

[trail rock]

Idk cuz 50 and counting sounds more vaguely epic

[humble bramble]

Yeah

[trail rock]

Plus it would eventually push text too far right if you keep on killing

[shut pasture]

Not really a good explanation

[ashen shore]

Will I be able to obtain the liquidator minotaur upgrades outside of the expedition? Like buying them at the space anomaly?

[shut pasture]

Lol that is also not a great explanation, they can wrap text 😂

[ashen shore]

Without doing the expedition

[trail rock]

Yes if we complete the community research thing

[ashen shore]

Okay

[humble bramble]

Which we will (It's on a timer)

[trail rock]

Do the expedition is so short and refreshing

[ashen shore]

Okay

Never done an expedition before

[trail rock]

I've been killing bugs for 6h

[humble bramble]

Research has always been on a soft timer

[midnight falcon]

guess I will enver get the hit 4

[trail rock]

Isn't too hard

[ashen shore]

Okay

[midnight falcon]

all these thigns spawn to far apart and never gather lol

[humble bramble]

If we can do it faster great but it'll complete regardless

[shut pasture]

This isna very easy expedition

[trail rock]

900 materials?

[humble bramble]

It was very easy

[trail rock]

Just use your minotaur

[humble bramble]

And also pretty fun

[burnt needle]

Corrupted sentinel kills still aren't counting for me

[trail rock]

Fr

[wide jackal]

Do we know if we get to keep the Minotaur that we unlocked after the expedition?

[shut pasture]

21% 💪

[trail rock]

🤷‍♂️

[burnt needle]

Restarted my game and restarted my xbox. Still 0 out of 32 kills

[midnight falcon]

the hit four targets with a grenade milestone

[shut pasture]

I know everyone goes to the same dropzone but from there does everyone get the same nests?

[midnight falcon]

none of these things that spawn shouldn't be called a swarm if its so spread out and they one by one attack lol

[shut pasture]

I got that by spamming a brood mother as she was spawning

[humble bramble]

I've seen one or two people at the same one I was at I believe

[midnight falcon]

is that the big thing?

it onyl spawns one thing for me

ever

then it just belly flops entire time

[humble bramble]

Even if the timer runs out

For more spawns

[sleek siren]

that is the idea

[midnight falcon]

does the plasma launcher not accoutn for the milestone?

[wide jackal]

Heck ya.

[midnight falcon]

but yeah pretty dissappointing that the big monster spawns one thing

[wide jackal]

How would one even unlock the Minotaur regularly?

[midnight falcon]

both that I have fought

and that thing it spawns just exits stage right never to be seen

[humble bramble]

Anomaly

[drowsy thicket]

When I bring over a Multi-Tool from a normal save and earn the multi-tool expansions from the milestones, those don't transfer back over to the main save, do they? They're only for the expedition, is that right?

[midnight falcon]

Whats the independt action one exactly? How do I do that one?

[proven oyster]

Yo anyone tried messing with the grub cocoon in the egg sequencer yet

[wide jackal]

Ah, as per most things

[midnight falcon]

It is something about wyapoints

[trail rock]

Dont, if it's S class it doesnt let you claim milestones

[wide jackal]

Holdup, is this starship that we get in the mission rare and unique to just this expedition?

[midnight falcon]

is braving the swarm around 6 waypoints these buildings with eggs?

[marble heath]

Uhh did the community goal just reset

It went down to 0 percent for me

[midnight falcon]

I pinend it but it didn' ttell me much

[shut pasture]

Damn if you fight a walker with someone you don't share the kill

[humble bramble]

Yeah i had someone fight with me when doing my thing but he disappeared shortly after I killed the walker

For reference I was there first

[inland rain]

So, I’ve done the expedition on my main save, but want to wait for optionals, or should I start a new save and redo it so I can end expeditions on my main save I’m using?

[trail rock]

Just activate those location waypoints which give you nav data

[trail rock]

U can return to main save no need to end it until optional is done

[inland rain]

How to return to main save? It says it won’t let me until I end current expedition

[trail rock]

Finish all milestones,go to anomaly and use the terminal left of the quicksilver vendor

[inland rain]

Ok

So after I return, I can switch back to my expedition via terminal anytime?

[full sun]

I’ve only done the expeditions from a new save, but I understand there is an option in the terminal to “pause” the expedition. Then when you return I assume you would “resume” it.

[burnt needle]

So i finished the expedition and hit the final reward to turn it into a regular save. Just want to let people know, it still has the Purged by Fire quest still active, meaning i can still get the optional rewards.

[flint saddle]

Tho you have a Hairless Sphinx pfp-

[shut pasture]

All these sentinels I just killed and still only 21%

[fervent cave]

This expedition is going by much faster than Adrift did for me

[whole niche]

I never claimed to not be evil

[flint saddle]

Very true, continue on

[inland rain]

What’s the current percentage on the optional milestones?

[cold merlin]

Is normal have 60 fps on Xbox series x

[craggy echo]

Can I sell my rancid flesh or do I need them at some point?

[sleek siren]

if it was blocked you wouldn't have been able to say it 😉

[shut pasture]

In the game...

[sleek siren]

i know 😄

[shut pasture]

Ok

[sleek siren]

There are quite a few words that are strangely blocked, for whatever reason

[cold merlin]

What's ur pc specs

[sleek siren]

Try naming a planet Paradise

[sleek siren]

i don't tell on a first date 👀

[shut pasture]

Well obviously "parade" is a naughty word so they ban "parad" to

Duh

[sleek siren]

🤨 sure

[shut pasture]

Also "radish"

[midnight falcon]

uh how do I pick up the minataur station?

[full sun]

The profanity filter is flaky. I’ve been doing a run thru all the galaxies and name my base in each galaxy with the galaxy name. At least 4 of the galaxy names were rejected by the profanity filter.

[iron tendon]

Hey guys, if I build a save beacon in the expedition, will it allow me to teleport to it from my main save after the expedition finishes? I want to adopt a certain creature for companion afterwards for my main save

[full sun]

You have one recipe you need to make. After that you can sell it.

[full sun]

Don’t know, but you could just get the glyphs for the planet.

[midnight falcon]

To edit my minotaur I need to do which station? I did the minotaur one but I can't pick it up

after placing it

[wraith badge]

No

[iron tendon]

Ok, thanks

[midnight falcon]

died cause I can't get anything the gives me the circle with + back

annoying lol I been to like 10+ planets too

granted I jumped into my minotaur but died seconds later

[tame frigate]

I saw a guide online about the expedition that says "If you're planning to bring your resources from the main save aim for <items>" but umm I was under the impression saves are separate to each other and you can't take items from your main save to the expedition???

[iron tendon]

What's the consequences with bargaining/declining bargaining with the ship that hails you after exiting pulse drive for the 1st time?

[iron tendon]

I think this is talking about starting the expedition from the main save via the expedition terminal in the anomaly. Did you start on a separate save?

[tame frigate]

I thought you had to start a new save for expedition?

[iron tendon]

No, you can start with your main save from the expedition terminal

This is what I did last expedition and I was able to get the expedition rewards into my main save when the expedition ended

[midnight falcon]

don't you get them on main regardless

[full sun]

You mean the + on your health bar? Just shoot a creature and eat the meat to replenish it.

[midnight falcon]

I did that whatt I even cooked it

[tame frigate]

I thought you bought them for free from quicksilver vendor after unlocking them on the expedition save to get them on main save lol

[iron tendon]

You do claim them for free from the quicksilver vendor. But I think your expedition save will just turn into a main save after it ends. Someone with more experience might want to confirm this. But my experience so far is that it's considered a separate save slot if you start from a new save

[full sun]

The actual rewards you can collect at Quicksilver from any save. The inventory items you are given during the expedition stay in that save.

[flat lotus]

Wats the percentage

[midnight falcon]

Is this a standalone upgrade? I can' tget colored borders

[ashen shore]

It connects to other modules like that

[midnight falcon]

I have another that says life supor ttanks but no clored border - am I not activating them since they are liek sentinells ones correctly?

they aren't flashign red either

[terse dust]

There's two different types of sentinel modules for the exosuit iirc

they link to others of the same graphic and overload when more than three are installed, like other mods.

[midnight falcon]

okay cause this one mention life support tanks (nothte pic I sent) but doesn't get any color when it is touchign the life support

[twin rain]

I had an problem with the missions on the expedition

[terse dust]

Yeah, they won't.

[iron tendon]

Oh, I didn't know that. But I guess, still more worthwhile to start from a main, as some inventory items might be valuable

[vestal gate]

hello

[thorn crane]

i'm having a bit of trouble with the apex predator mission
earlier it was bugged for me and when i scanned a hostile creature it didn't count for the mission
does anyone know where i can find another predator creature? (not in the starting system, that's the one i tried that didn't work)

[vestal gate]

I found one somewhere, usually you find those on less pleasantr planets

I went off the beeten path a bit It might be near where I found the paradise planet

[inland rain]

@thorn crane there’s guide to guide on all milestones on yt

[void citrus]

So, I quickly found out that now multiple storms hit at the same time, I got firestorm, electric storm and wind storm all at the same time and I became super man

[granite ridge]

there appear to be two valid animals in the starting system. the one of the pinned post ( #nms-expedition message seconds planet of start system ) and https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1eb4gwj/expedition_14_apex_predator_milestone/ start planet, underwater

[merry anchor]

Hey, late reply, but that means it also progresses for you just the same? Should be up to 23% now

Debating between leaving the expedition or not

I did the final quest just now

[radiant cipher]

I got super lucky and just came across a planet someone renamed "12 PREDATOR HERE IT LOOKS LIKE [animal]!!!" and got that done super easily.

[merry anchor]

Do be aware that the creature in the pinned message is a cave dweller as well as a pain in the ass to find

[barren bolt]

So. This is my first expedition. And even tho i do believe they should be made repeatable for the new players. I want to say that i approve that even someone with a limited time to play can complete them in the time allotted. All the milestones seem very achievable by just playing the game. I am curious to know tho if I decide to continue on this save after the expedition will I be able to complete the main quest?? Since it did not start with the expedition?

[void citrus]

Yes you can

[merry anchor]

Anyways, I did my part

[inland rain]

By the time checks percent ppl finish the optional it’ll be Christmas 🙏

[merry anchor]

Expedition's been out for what, 3 days now? 23% isn't bad

[inland rain]

4% since yesterday huh

[merry anchor]

At this rate we should be done by the time mid-august rolls around

I just really want that flamethrower tbh

[inland rain]

😎1 month holiday mid august woo

[merry anchor]

I'll pay the quicksilver if I need to

[merry anchor]

104 days of summer vacation, y'know

[inland rain]

Wait, it ain’t winter for you guys is it?

[merry anchor]

Not for me, no

[radiant cipher]

So like one early milestone is kill 30 or so of sentinels, and another is kill 30 or so of corrupted sentinels. Can I just skip the first one and complete it at the same time as the second?

[void citrus]

Hm I don't like that most of the rewards are posters and decals don't get me wrong I like them but seeing them be mostly the reward isn't interesting but they might be saving the juicy part for the second part

[merry anchor]

I've always wanted to know if Southern hemisphere folk do christmas in december or in august

Cuz like, it would be winter in August

[inland rain]

So how does part 2 work? Does it continue off from part 1 save?

[merry anchor]

Part 2 is gonna be an update, so it'll be off your current save

[inland rain]

So, from the beginning then 😂

[tame frigate]

Is there a way to send nanites to the expedition? Since I need to use nanites to create multittool and starship haha

[static brook]

did expedition started?

[inland rain]

@static brook yes

[proven rampart]

im having trouble finding the 12.0, I have been looking for it at the 3rd point for literal hours and have reset my game and pc multiple times but i can never find it. Am i being messed with or something?

[tropic adder]

There is one in the starting system. Info is on the channel pin. Also, if you turned predators on "defensive", I don't think it shows up.

[proven rampart]

i didn't mess with that stuff at all so if its on by default then that makes sense

and thank you

i should've done this sooner, i wasted hours cause i was stubborn.....

[wraith badge]

I spent ages trying to find the one mentioned on the pinned message and finallly gave up and went to the starting planet and found the eel thing in the water in about 5 mins ... your choice on which one you go for.

[tropic adder]

Yeah. I think the one in the pin comes out at night. Not fully sure, though

[light relic]

Hi all, I am trying to get eggs for "Provocateur" milestone in E14, but I cant find any more. I have 8, and need 5 more, where is the best place to find them and how do I scan for them?

[wraith badge]

You find them around abandoned building

[proven rampart]

you can find them at most abandoned shelters, they are the eggs laying around

[light relic]

how to find those buildings though? All I see on the planet is a heap of purple multiplayer bases

[proven rampart]

i'll look for both

[proven rampart]

from some of the challenges you'll get some charts, you can use those

[light relic]

I have used them all 😦

[rose veldt]

@light relic Just

[wraith badge]

As I fly about the planet I fire off the scanner and if a little house shows up on the HUD I go investigate and if it's a building with eggs ... land and collect 'em

[tropic adder]

You can get more charts at the cartographers at the space stations

[rose veldt]

Go to the purge mission.. There's always an abandoned building @light relic

[light relic]

Ahh ok thanks

[light relic]

Yes thats what I just completed, but no eggs left there

I will buy some charts thanks

[proven rampart]

you can do the later ones too

[rose veldt]

You have 5 missions

[light relic]

ah ok.. cool ty

[rose veldt]

@light relic go to the next dropzone, and after you completed it, the next one is a purge mission

[light relic]

Ok wwill do that thanks 🙂

[remote stratus]

What’s the best way to get the 6,000 nanites for “bleeding foam”? Did everything else n I’m halfway there

[faint mesa]

Try scanning all fauna on a planet, get the bonus;
As you fight sentinels, you will get sentinel tech modules, which you can sell;
Refine the larval cores that you will get from whispering eggs (it's a milestone, you have to do it anyway)

[remote stratus]

Ty, didn’t realize larval cores refined into nanites, I sold so many😭

[tropic adder]

Same 😖

[molten raptor]

Tainted metal does too. It’s a 1:2 ratio so that’s what I’ve been sticking with

[wide jackal]

If anyone needs to kill the 32 corrupted sentinels I’m in a fight rn and can try to give you the location

[burnt needle]

Can confirm. Got the final reward at 21%. Loaded the expedition save and it says 23% now.

[fleet meadow]

And done!
All none-community objectives completed.
Very fun stuff.
Now to sit back & wait for the community to pull through with doing their part.😂

[burnt needle]

Go to any dissonant system, land on any dissonant planet, and literally use your scanner. Look for corrupted sentinels.

There's 3 types, only 2 of the 3 types count. Flying ones and the BIG crawling ones. The SMALL crawling ones do NOT count towards the objective.

[proven rampart]

i just got both of them and neither triggered the milestone

[strong frigate]

okay im kinda lost, my ships stuck in mid air on the side of a plant... and i dont have any thruster power and i cant reach it lmao

[burnt needle]

Call it in.

[strong frigate]

huh?

[wraith badge]

For the pinned one ... I'm still missing it ... found all the others but not hte one required to complete the milestone

[burnt needle]

Call the ship on to a different location using the quick menu. If it doesn't have any launch fuel but you have some on hand, open the ship inventory and drag then drop the fuel over the launch thruster technology.

[proven rampart]

it was in the 3rd cave i found and i even saw it massacre a herd and didn't get it

oh wait i just reloaded it gave it to me

[strong frigate]

i cant reach the ship tohugh... its out of range wont work

[burnt needle]

How far away is it? Try and get as close to it as possible.

[proven rampart]

do you want me to find one and stay next to it for ya?

[strong frigate]

XD

its so far, and my jet pack cant lol

[faint mesa]

The ocean creature from the starting planet may be easier, just make sure you land in some tiny island in the ocean and search for it in deep waters

[burnt needle]

I can join your game and make an exosuit platform.

[wraith badge]

Thanks but No, like I said ... I gave up with that pinned one and did the one on the starting planet, which I got after a look about underwater for about 5 minutes

[proven rampart]

idk why i forgot that tbh

thanks for the help tho

[strong frigate]

i shot all 10 of my plasma balls and somehow it made it wiggle down

[wraith badge]

No bother at all.

[burnt needle]

There's 2 animals in caves for the pinned one. I had to scan for all 7 animals, the last one was the pinned animal and that's how i got it.

[strong frigate]

so weird, i spawned it and it spawned like 200+ away from me and was on that plant lol

[burnt needle]

Weird. I'd suggest getting some nanites and getting the thruster recharger from the anomaly.

[wraith badge]

I checked all the caves I could find and only found 2 animals I'd already found both of which were not the ones required for the milestone ... 😦

which is why I wnet for the underwater one

[light relic]

How do I use the Plasma Gun reward, I dont have a recipe for Amino Chamber

[burnt needle]

You can use nanites to unlock the recipe on the anomaly.

[wraith junco]

U will get amino chamber blueprint as reward from other task

[light relic]

Oh, I have not even found the anomoly yet

[tropic adder]

The module may be in your starship inventory if you claimed the reward while inside it

[burnt needle]

Shooting 1800 rounds of ammo will get you a pre-packaged plasma launcher. It'll be a grey upgrade in your inventory. You can use it to install it into your tool.

Phase 2 Lock and Load reward.

[light relic]

Thats what happened when I used it

[burnt needle]

Yep. Them use the middle mouse wheel to change your alt weapon until the plasma launcher is selected, then right click to shoot it.

[light relic]

But it requires installtion

[desert escarp]

Isnt there a module it gives you

It gives you one to install and the blueprint no?

[burnt needle]

The game gives you one that will be pre-installed.

You don't have to build it.

Destroy that one and look in your inventory if you completed lock and load objective in phase 2

[light relic]

Ok, but why would i have one already thats not installed?

[wide jackal]

For the 6k nanites I’ve just killed 3 full rounds of corrupted sentinels for the 50 killing in a mech challenge and it gives nanites!

[burnt needle]

If you go to other tech, you can press a button to package it up and store the tech part in your inventory . The game gives you one of these packaged plasma launchers.

[light relic]

That worked thanks, how confusing

[desert escarp]

This will keep happening throughout the quest, so just make sure you dont miss the packages lol

[light relic]

Ok thanks

[desert escarp]

I almost did the same but caught it in a stray cargo slot

[strong frigate]

anyone else crashing alot on planet Ritehfle Delta? where the apex is :/ its only when im mining...

[light relic]

What are all the purple bases from other players in the Expedition? Why do they show?

[thick umbra]

Multiplayer enabled ? if so disable Multiplayer

[light relic]

No it is disabled

oh hehe that was for someone else

[hollow barn]

Is the optional quest a full community thing or no

[burnt needle]

It is. It'll take time for it to complete.

[mild valley]

hi after started expedition from on my main save i have see my main save was gone it is possible to recover at some point of expedition ?

[hollow barn]

I'm hoping we can actually do it kinda like a major order in helldivers 2 lol

[burnt needle]

Interact with the same console you started the expedition on.

On the anomaly.

[mild valley]

if i do this it cancel expedition or i can recover my original main save without expedition launching with this one ?

[burnt needle]

I'm unclear on that info. Just know that's how people return to their regular save after they complete the expedition. I always start a new save for the expeditions.

[mild valley]

so nobody can tell me what happen if i interact on expedition console after starting expedition ?

[burnt needle]

Most likely it just takes you back to your regular save. Try asking in #nms-questions

They'll know more.

[wide jackal]

So a couple questions:

My multi-tool inventory is maxed out, but my next reward is 5x multitool slots? What will happen?

I have 3 or 4 different weapons in my multitool rn, but I can only switch to two? What happened to the other two? Like I have the neutron cannot, scatter shoot, the green rifle one, and the pistol, but I can only access the neutron and scatter shot

[mild valley]

not really it’s almost like nobody leave me an answer that’s why i ask here

[wraith badge]

From what I understand interacting with the Anomaly console allows you to jump back n forth between the save and the Expedition.

[burnt needle]

You'll get the storage slots as an item if you go back on upgrading the storage.

[wide jackal]

Ah okay. Nice

[burnt needle]

You can then use the slots to upgrade your tool storage at the tool console on space stations. You can use them to expand storage instead of paying for it.

[mild valley]

if i interact with the console a third time it won’t bring me back because it is used to start expedition from beginning

[wraith badge]

The HUD should tell you which key/button to press to switch the active weapon ... along with another key to switch the secondary weapon ... on my MT I have the Plasma Launcher and the Paralysis one ... so I can switch between 'em using B (I use a 360 controller on the PC)

[strong frigate]

Didn't even know I could disable it. That's nice to know since I hate seeing 50 communication devices 😂

[wraith badge]

Oh! You'll still see those 😉

[burnt needle]

Anyone have a single inventory expansion slot i could get?

[wide jackal]

I switch using B aswell. But it only switches between 2 of the four guns

Also, where can I recycle upgrades for nanites in the space station?

[median sparrow]

Any tech vendor

[burnt needle]

Any of the guys on the top part.

[wide jackal]

Sick, thanks

[wraith badge]

I switch with Y and switch secondary with B

[strong frigate]

Baaaaaah lol it's not that bad because it does help seeing the drop zones 😆 but jeez r there so many.

Where did everyone find the apex predator in a cave or above surface? I've checked both but still 6/7 fauna found and I assume the apex is the last

[acoustic jacinth]

Good Morning to Day 3 of Expedition 14. Time for me to do my part once again!

[burnt needle]

If on the pinned planet, it'll be in a cave.

[strong frigate]

Okay thanks, will focus on caves then

[burnt needle]

Would you happen to have a spare suit inventory expansion?

[acoustic jacinth]

What if someone puts down a Comms station near a cave?

[halcyon oar]

Finally got it to work. My game had bugged out completely, as it wasn't registering ANY scanned wonders at all. Logged in today and nearly everything I scanned was a new record of some kind, as expected. Found a base some amazing person had left marking a 12.0 location, scanned it, and it was logged. Just needed a total restart of the game.

[acoustic jacinth]

1. No
2. I play on PS4
3. I don't have PS Plus

[burnt needle]

Dang, dang, and even more dang. XD

[acoustic jacinth]

Yeah.

[wraith badge]

if you use the keyboard the 2 keys shown will be different.

[burnt needle]

It's mouse wheel to change alt and right click to fire alt on PC.

[strong frigate]

Anyone else notice with the biomes , copper, etc. is under stuff you can't mine sometimes?

[tropic adder]

Yeah... that's annoying...

[strong frigate]

Yuuup

[pine relic]

nice that it worked out, but that is kind of a major bug. Has yesterdays experimental patch gone out to the public branch already? If you didn't download an update today, it might be a good idea to write out about that bug in as much detail as you can manage to the zendesk when you have the time since other people might be running into that problem as well

[strong frigate]

This apex is gonna be the death of me

[pine relic]

!hg @halcyon oar

[unkempt kraken]

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

[wide jackal]

Oh ya, that’s what I meant

[tropic adder]

Ok. What is the best way to hit 4 targets with one grenade?

[burnt needle]

When bugs spawn in. They spawn in groups of like 10

[pine relic]

throw in creature pellets in the middle of 4 creatures then bomb 'em when they get close to it to eat

[halcyon oar]

According to steam, last update I had for NMS was on the 24th. There is a chance that it updated while I was playing the game, with a fix tot he issue. But since I was already in game I didn't get it.
We were talking about the issue at 5am on the 25th, and steam updated NMS at 10pm on the 24th.

[halcyon oar]

Any of the infested outposts you clear for the mission. Shoot one of the insect eggs, it'll cause a group of like 6 to crawl out of the ground. Hit said group with the plasma stun grenade.

[strong frigate]

crashed again and then i relog and have the apex quest done... im so confused whats wrong with my game atleast i was recording this time

[acoustic jacinth]

I gotta ask. Below the Bar on the upper left screen there are 6 Plus signs. What do they mean?

[burnt needle]

Your health.

Once the main bar is depleted, your shields, you'll start taking health damage

[acoustic jacinth]

What does it mean when there are 3 pluses on and 3 off? How do I restore them all back?

[pine relic]

yeah, just confirmed the latest patch is still on experimental branch only (I was just musing aloud, we can check in #nms-news-ticker for when exactly each update gets pushed lol) so it would be a good idea to report that bug when you have a few minutes to spare :P Good thing that just restarting apparently fixed it but still... very weird that no wonders were registering whatsoever

[burnt needle]

You can find white crates while exploring. These will restore 1 health.

[acoustic jacinth]

Ok

[burnt needle]

Usually next to ammo boxes.

[stone arrow]

You can get the item you bring for the expedition or return to your regular game but you can rejoin the expedition when you want

[burnt needle]

3 faded means you're missing 3 health.

[wraith junco]

3. U can link your console to your friend account who has ps+

[shell oriole]

daaaaym

lucky

[burnt needle]

Still looking for an exosuit storage expansion. I'm wanting to duplicate it so i can hand them out to players that don't want to spend time getting their suit storage to max.

[shell oriole]

if only you started with a boltcaster

[desert escarp]

Hated doing this back when I had one, Ps5 makes it so much easier though

[halcyon oar]

Also just noticed Leedle sounds like they had the same issue as well, so seems to effect more than just my game. Unfortunately, not really much info to give on the problem, other than that it exists. Not like I was doing anything when it broke. Just that apparently visor scanning doesn't record wonders until after the game is restarted at least once?
Because planetary wonders were working fine. (Like, when you scan a planet from the ship and it records largest planet, etc. I had those wonders logged. Just nothing for flora, fauna, or mineral)

[burnt needle]

If anyone helps me get one, I'll be giving them the max amount as soon as i get them.

[light relic]

Do you need 6000 nanite clusters? how many eggs is that?

[burnt needle]

Could be happening from the discovery services being down when you logged them.

[burnt needle]

I think refining 1 egg is 50 nanites.

[halcyon oar]

I was playing over the course of several hours, and scanning the entire time. Not a single record was logged, until I logged in tonight.

[burnt needle]

120 eggs?

[light relic]

That is alot more than 13 eggs sighs

[teal socket]

quicker to kill sentinels as they drop glass that can be analyzed into upgrades that sell for a few hundred each

[wide jackal]

Alright, I left a communication device on a planet that you can find in one of the systems for the expedition. It has a note that a Legend of Zelda fan would recognize. If someone finds it… I’ll be very impressed!

[burnt needle]

I have an excess of tech upgrades i could give you.

There is a way to dupe suspicious packets (tech) to where you have hundreds that give you tech parts to sell for the nanites.

This is what i did anyways.

[light relic]

Wait.. is it 6000 nanintes or 6000 clusters?

[burnt needle]

1 cluster is 1 nanite.

They are the same.

[light relic]

wth...

[burnt needle]

If the game tells you that you got 10 nanite clusters, you'll have gained 10 nanites to your total.

[pine relic]

Interesting. So it was just for scanned stuff that it wasn't working... that information should help 'em narrow it down a bit. One important thing that comes to mind is this: after the situation fixed itself, did the stuff that you had already scanned automatically go into wonders? or did the wonders update only after you scanned entirely brand new stuff?

[halcyon oar]

No retroactive updates, no. Just all the new stuff I was scanning.

Was lucky enough that the system I was in had a marked 12.0 I hadn't scanned yet

[pine relic]

That's pretty disruptive for this expedition

if someone with that bug scans all the known predators with no effect that will make things way more annoying for them

[halcyon oar]

As you can see here, the new creature I just scanned counted, but is only a 13.2pav. Yet I had scanned both the creatures we talked about before, one of which was recorded for you at nearly 30pav. Which should've replaced this one I just scanned

So for some reason it was scanning everything just fine, but failing to take note of it's hidden special traits, like viciousness, intellegance, etc. and thus not marking them as wonders

I was still getting paid for the scans, and they're still in my discovery logs

[pine relic]

Yeah, its a flaw of the wonder system and its not the first time this has been a problem for an expedition. The thing can only update the exact moment that you scan something. They should have a button somewhere that tells the game to review all the discoveries in your save to repopulate / double check the wonders or something like that.

Last time it was HG getting confused about what acidic blood means.

[rotund dawn]

hi new to expedition, i am bit lost in the optional milestone of "purged by fire" is this a solo challenge or community challenge and if its solo challenge do i have to kill a set of biological horrors for each phase or just kill them? thanks in advance

[pine relic]

its a community challenge

[hollow barn]

So we got 6 weeks to beat the crap outta these bugs and robots let get to work

[pine relic]

and probably there's a daily cap to how much each player can contribute, so there's no need to go out of your way to kill 200000 bugs daily by yourself :P

[burnt needle]

Phase 1 is currently at 24%.

[wraith junco]

To bad there is no counter for that.

[halcyon oar]

Not sure if related, but maybe something is just overloading their systems? I've also noticed my discovery screen will just go entirely blank, both yesterday and just now when looking at scans. The screen shown is of the starting system and planet, of which I have 9/10 fauna scanned. Yet it's just blank.

[rotund dawn]

i see, thank you for this clarification

[pine relic]

well, one could theoretically make a new expedition save, kill say a thousand bugs, delete the save, make a new one, kill another thousand, etc... it is doubtful that such a thing would make a big impact on an individual level, and it is extremely unlikely to get a large enough number of people to commit the time to do it like that to the point that it would make a meaningful impact

[remote thunder]

that happens sometimes even when playing solo, i usually just quit pause menu, and reopen it's usually fine after this

[wraith junco]

I barely got through normal exp playthrough. Pew pew gets boring for me .

[pine relic]

exactly. I'm sure there are a lot of players that feel the same. Luckily (or not, depending on point of view) HG doesn't have the same mindset as, say, korean mmo devs so the number for the cap should be very casual and comfortable. I doubt it would even be 1k.

[burnt needle]

Still need an exosuit storage expansion module.

[inland rain]

Normal seems perfect after surv/perm achievements

[pine relic]

for better or worse, mindless grinding in NMS tends to be of a level that I personally consider super casual... tho I suppose I have a much higher tolerance for it than the average player

[wraith junco]

With working kill community counters i could get some motivation to shot some more.

[inland rain]

@pine relic custom max inv storage of 250, that’ll be fun no?

Doubt anyone here would want to suffer 250max inv on survival

[pine relic]

stacks of 500 are a comparatively new thing in hardcore / permadeath so I played for a long time with stacks of 250 and had a blast :P

<--- only plays in permadeath

[inland rain]

💀 I’d go insane

1 perm full play is enough for me

[burnt needle]

-_- Was flying to get a frigate module from a nexus quest when SUDDENLY my Xbox says it's update time.

[inland rain]

F

[burnt needle]

Was almost to the sentinel pillar i needed to hack.

Think i just had an update yesterday or 2 days ago too.

Super slow hotspot means it's gonna take like an hour or longer for a 602 MB update.

System update not game, just to clarify.

[pine relic]

Well, its a wonderful thing that we have options. Personally I consider normal mode way too generous so I'd get bored with it way quicker compared to PD :P

[burnt needle]

I mainly play to explore and gift items to other players. So having tons of room for items helps me out the most.

[hollow barn]

Ok so the rewards for the purge by fire community quest is the minotaur liquidator armor blueprints correct

[burnt needle]

Correct.

They're showing up in normal mode saves in the quick silver shop, so likely they'll be available for purchase with quicksilver when the conditions are met.

Expedition saves will get those for free though through the rewards.

[hollow barn]

I really really want that stuff my main game save hopefully I will have when I get back to my other save I made a separate save just for the expedition

[pine relic]

when the community is done unlocking it, it will unlock for everyone (not just saves that did the expedition) in the quicksilver shop, it just won't be free

[burnt needle]

They should appear as an expedition reward once you unlock them via the expedition menu.

[pine relic]

nope, not as an expedition reward

they're unlocking in the regular quicksilver shop

[hollow barn]

So im guessing if you don't buy it during the quest at the quick sliver shop you won't ever have them

[pine relic]

they're already listed in there, actually, just greyed out

[pine relic]

it will unlock for everyone, quest or no quest.

[burnt needle]

But I'm meaning like how you get the chitin armor unlocked, you then claim it through the expedition rewards on a normal save, wouldn't that be the same if you get them during the expedition?

[hollow barn]

I just saying becuase I can't get any of the stuff from season 1 through 13 now becuase I apparently didn't play the expedition in time

[pine relic]

For the expedition cosmetics yes, for the minotaur stuff no.

[burnt needle]

Stuff shown in the quicksilver shop will always be in the quicksilver shop.

They remain in there even after an expedition ends.

[burnt needle]

The community rewards are available to everyone regardless of expeditions done. They're seperate from the expedition rewards.

[ashen shore]

Hey guys, am new to expedition stuff. Do you start a new game and then choose expedition or there is like a way in your old save file?

[pine relic]

There are two options in the quicksilver shop, one is for claiming expedition rewards, that only people that complete the expedition can claim stuff from, and one is for buying community-unlocked stuff with quicksilver, that everyone gets access to after it is unlocked. The minotaur stuff is listed in the community-unlocked stuff.

[burnt needle]

On the anomaly behind the Nexus mission bot, there's a console to enter the expedition.

[ashen shore]

Oh, thank you

[burnt needle]

I don't think you can take everything with you though.

I always start a new game so I can't provide details on how it works.

[pine relic]

There's a limited number of slots for items / technology to bring, and the option to copy the ship and MT you have currently equipped in your main save to the expedition. But you can only retrieve stuff from it after you get access to the anomaly (after your first warp) so the starting part of the expedition ends up not being affected by the stuff you transfer over.

[burnt needle]

Does the tech in the ship and tool transfer?

[pine relic]

ship and MT copies come with all the tech they had installed, but obviously no cargo

[burnt needle]

Ooh. Interesting. Might need to start doing the expeditions that way then

[pine relic]

You can also do it in the opposite direction after finishing the expedition, with the same limited number of slots as shown above. When finishing the expedition you can put items / tech in there to transfer over to your original save, and once you're back there, you have the option to copy the ship / MT that you had equipped when you finished the expedition.

[burnt needle]

So if i start an expedition with my main save ship, then finish it with me main save ship, can i get a 2nd copy of my ship on my main save?

[pine relic]

I think more than one copy actually. You can probably copy it as many times as you want, but it has a cost in nanites per copy.

[burnt needle]

Ooh. I'd be fine with that.

[pine relic]

I've only ever done 1 copy but I think you can do multiple

[remote thunder]

cannot have multiple copies of the same MT

need to scrap existing first

[acoustic jacinth]

I finally have my Multi Tool and Starship in my Expedition, rather than the stupid Hauler, which control are super wonky and the Pistol Milti tool.

[pine relic]

what about ships?

[burnt needle]

I have a robot head sentinel ship i like alot. Have a black one and an orange one. Named them both Gemini with different text colors.

[remote thunder]

works for multiple copies, no need to scrap before cloning another ship

[pine relic]

Interesting that the limitation would be for MT only.

[burnt needle]

Wasn't worried about tools.

[pine relic]

there's probably some technical reason for that

[burnt needle]

Amd it's probably something to do with the code. Like how if you duplicate a pet egg one of the eggs ends up being a dud.

You can only safely dupe a pet egg by gifting it then reloading your save.

[quaint crest]

how do i do the
"purged by fire" milestones

[burnt needle]

Kill bugs.

[pine relic]

they're a community effort

[quaint crest]

huh?

[quaint crest]

how much

[stray dome]

a billion maybe

[acoustic jacinth]

I know the most valuable item in the game as I know.

[stray dome]

its a community effort so everyone has to kill them

[burnt needle]

Community missions are where the entire player base has the same objective that everyone works on together.

[pine relic]

everyone killing bugs contributes to the progress, no one can do the required number by themselves. It will probably be a few weeks at least until all the optionals are completed by the community.

[quaint crest]

ohhh

[acoustic jacinth]

Like on Helldivers to liberate a planet.

[burnt needle]

I'm on Xbox so i never got to experience it, so sure? Lol

Every bug you kill will add to the grand total needed.

[acoustic jacinth]

You ever watched Helldivers videos on YT? That’s how it is. Also I am playing em on PS4.

[acoustic jacinth]

What is the Grand Total?

[pine relic]

it hasn't been revealed

[burnt needle]

Say there needs to be a million bugs killed. You kill 50. That's 50 less everyone else has to kill. And the total is unknown.

Just get out there and kill all the bugs. All of them except Steve.

[pine relic]

there was a message from sean on former twitter that the community has killed 6.8 million bugs in the first day tho

[acoustic jacinth]

I think I killed 50+ since the start of the Expedition.

[burnt needle]

That's alot of grubs.

[acoustic jacinth]

6.8 Million a day?! Damn, we are guzzling the Ammo Packages of the Systems.

[pine relic]

And that was about 15% of part 1 :P

[acoustic jacinth]

Imagine tue Economy in the systems is bust from all the buying of Ammo Packages.

[burnt needle]

So about 45 million in total for part 1. Probably going to be a nice round number so let's say probably 50 million.

[acoustic jacinth]

This time I made sure to bring a very very VERY valuable item to sell in my Expedition.

[pine relic]

someone did the math, but I think it would be a flawed assumption to base in those number since there's almost definitely a daily cap of kills per player and I'm positive everyone went well over the cap on the first day

[wraith badge]

You not considered turning this option on in Discord?

[burnt needle]

Yeah. It'd be around 50 mil. 15% of 50 is 7.5.

[pine relic]

I considered and opted against. I like my emoticons to be text only because of nostalgia for my BBS and mIRC days :P

[burnt needle]

Lol. Same here. I prefer XD to 😆

[wraith badge]

GAWD ... mIRC I have that somewhere

[acoustic jacinth]

I am gonna let you guys figure out what item I am bringing to the expedition to sell for a lotta Units.

[wicked loom]

does anyone know why it doesnt display a location for this? theres no marker in the system

unsure on how to progress

[pine relic]

Did you reload after getting that marker?

[burnt needle]

It's the same system you used the console on to get it.

[wicked loom]

i did

got softlocked

[pine relic]

Assuming you're not in multiplayer / a group, crushing a grub while on the correct planet should fix the icon to the correct location for some unfathomable reason

[burnt needle]

Crushing grub spawns a queen. Queen spawns when you reach the location. Makes sense to me.

[wicked loom]

ill give it a try once the storm clears, ty

[burnt needle]

Down to 400 MBs left of my system update from 602. It's been 37 mins since the update started.

[pine relic]

for future reference, that happens whenever you reload between interacting with the dropzone marker but before clearing the infestation location that it marks

probably a bug

[halcyon oar]

I feel that. used to have internet speeds measured in the KB/s... Country internet is sadge. Starlink is a must where I live.

[wicked loom]

yeah i probably got really unlucky there, my ship landed partially inside the wall of the structure and getting out got me stuck inside that structures walls

reloaded to try to fix it

[burnt needle]

Bugs are fine as long as you are killing them (and if there's a simple workaround for technical issues.)

[burnt needle]

Normal internet in my small town was $100 a month for 100 Mbps. Went into debt with the Internet company. So I'm stuck on my wifi hotspot.

They also said 100 Mbps, but i got max speeds of 20 Mbps.

They've reduced the price to $40 since then. But i feel I'd have to pay what i owe before getting internet again.

Currently with my hotspot on slow speeds it's like 50 Kbps, when I'm supposed to be getting around 500 Kbps on slow speeds. Cell company decided to make pre-paid users pay $5 for an extra GB of hotspot. But my original plan is where the hotspot never gets shut off, just slowed down. So if i call to complain, they might change it to make it where my hotspot straight up shuts off after running out of data.

It's a conundrum for sure.

[hollow barn]

Are they ever going to add some kind of anti air turret to the settlement build menu

To help with pirate raids

[burnt needle]

Probably not. They seem like they're done with settlement stuff.

But you can always request for it to be added.

[wintry void]

Why when they got eager pilots to do their bit

[hollow barn]

I wonder if light no fire is going to be good or not I'm hoping to make a series on it when it comes out maybe even live stream

[burnt needle]

It could end up like No Man's Sky. A mess at first that gets way better later on with updates.

[keen ember]

or it could be like modern nms lol

[wintry void]

A bit off topic now peeps

[burnt needle]

The world may never know.

[keen ember]

noticed there's a "previous expeditions" tab under milestones, absolutely loved SEASON 1 NAME

[burnt needle]

I'm here helping those that ask expedition questions.

[halcyon oar]

To be fair, I still believe the compelte mess of NMS's launch was a reulst of the publisher insisting on wringing out their investment. Not a fault of HG themselves. Publisher lost faith and forced them to release a half baked game so they could cash in and bail

Also, sorry. Off topic, yeah

[burnt needle]

There's tons of games that do that. It sucks. I always prefer a longer wait for a better game than a quicker half baked one.

[wintry void]

Lnf and Internet speeds aint anything to do with expedition...just saying

[keen ember]

lol yeah

[burnt needle]

I'm aware.

[keen ember]

i really should not have brought my sentinel drone with me

[edgy badge]

so is there no access to Anomaly during Expedition? and will I be able to make storage containers during Expedition?

[keen ember]

the amount of times i've tried to tag something or interact with my refiner just to enter dialogue with this stupid drone

[keen ember]

after 1st jump

[burnt needle]

There is, just have to get so far. And storage containers are a yes but you'll need to unlock them.

[keen ember]

unrelated note, why the hell can you enter dialogue with the drone in the first place outside of its respective mission

[edgy badge]

went to new system but no storage yet

[burnt needle]

You have to unlock it via anomaly blueprint vendors.

Middle shop, left hand side.

[edgy badge]

oh so I should be able to do that now in new system? good tnx4info

[burnt needle]

You'll need salvaged modules you dig up on planets. Think it's 5 or 10 per storage blueprint.

[keen ember]

do I hatch the egg you get at the end? will I get the egg/pet if I end expedition even if I hatch it on the expedition save?

[wraith badge]

Check the milestone rewards as you get 30 salvage data for one of 'em

[burnt needle]

You should. It appears in the expedition rewards in the quicksilver shop on normal saves.

[keen ember]

alr thx

[burnt needle]

It's a pet of the bug that spawns with the queens.

[keen ember]

sick

[burnt needle]

I have yet to find an ingredient that grows it in the synthesizer

Everything I've tried just threatens to shrink it.

[wide jackal]

Bro, I feel like an absolute idiot. I didn’t realize that you could expand the multitool downwards. I thought you could only expand its slots to the right so I wanted to add my neutron Cannon, and so I scrapped and turned the javelin weapon ands its upgrades into nanites and then I realized you could expand the slots downward and so I don’t have any javelin stuff.

Man what a goof

[burnt needle]

30 Slots at C class, 40 at B, 50 at A, and 60 max at S.

At least i think that's right.

You get more potential slots the better class your items are. Ships are the same way

Suits don't have a class, but the suit is capped at 60 tech and 120 inventory.

[crimson copper]

Hey, does anyone know if when I play an expedition from my main save, am I able to reclaim twitch/expedition items during the expedition that I have already claimed in the past on my main save? I'm wondering if I can claim ships and things and scrap them and transfer the scraps to my normal save once I end the expedition.

[pine relic]

I don't do twitch, but it works with expedition rewards, so it should probably also work with twitch drops.

[halcyon oar]

It's too bad you cant transfer things between saves. Found a neat sentinel ship for the first time

[pine relic]

Write down the planetary coordinates and portal glyphs then go claim it with another save. :P

[burnt needle]

If you started the expedition from your main save using the anomaly, you could bring the ship over to your main save.

[halcyon oar]

Could've, had I though about that =,= Can still mark the system though. At least then I've got a dissrupted planet down.

[halcyon oar]

Nope. I always make a fresh save for the expeditions. Don't want to risk breaking my long term main save.

[pine relic]

If you started the expedition from within the main save its even easier, just plant a base computer nearby and when you end the expedition that base will be transferred to the main save, so you can just teleport directly to it from wherever you are and claim the thing.

[burnt needle]

Look at all the systems you went to, find the dissonant ones. Save their locations. All systems you went to will have circles around them.

[pine relic]

I always take a screenshot of the glyphs and planetary coordinates of any interesting crashed ships that I find, its a good habit to have.

[burnt needle]

It is but one i fail to remember.

[halcyon oar]

To be fair, it could very well be a crap ship. But, it's the first sentinel ships I've run across so...

[wide jackal]

Guys I finally got the ||liquidator grub||! 🎊

[pine relic]

not sure if that would work for consoles since there might be storage space considerations, but for PC that works really well

I have thousands of screenshots of that nature lol

[burnt needle]

Woo! Now squish it.

[formal thicket]

How did yall find your 12.0 creature?

[burnt needle]

Share a pic of it if you can. Got me curious.

[burnt needle]

There's a pinned comment.

[pine relic]

with no effort whatsoever. It was the first thing I scanned on the second planet I landed.

[crimson copper]

Wow, that's sick. Thank you. ❤️

[west forum]

Check the first pinned message in this channel

pimp - i didnt know this!!!

[pine relic]

#nms-expedition message starter planet underwater predator (easier to find than the one in the pin)

[burnt needle]

Bliss finding all the helpful animals to scan.

[pine relic]

the underwater one was from bk201

[burnt needle]

Looks decent to me. Not one I'd personally go for, but would be a 2nd choice.

[pine relic]

there was a base marking a S class version of that one, not sure if the base is still in the teleporter lists tho since more people making bases there could bump it off the list

[mossy herald]

so if i redeem the iron vulture ship from last expedition while on this expedition, at the end of the event, does it get copied back over, thus duplicating the ship on the main save?

[formal thicket]

Thank you

[halcyon oar]

Glyphs, if curious. Apparently photo mode marks that for you.

[acoustic jacinth]

Can any body explain to me why is it saying Inventory full?

[pine relic]

are you trying to claim a reward that upgrades multi-tool class while having a S class multi tool equipped?

[acoustic jacinth]

Yes

[pine relic]

if so equip a crappier MT and it should work

[acoustic jacinth]

Thank you. It worked.

[wide jackal]

Noo, not poor liquidator! He’s guided all our lost souls to each drop point!

[halcyon oar]

This one was an A class as is

[keen ember]

what class?

[pine relic]

You could do that yes. And make multiple copies, even. The name of the ship would change tho, but everything else would stay the same.

[burnt needle]

If it's name isn't Steve, you gotta kill all bugs.

[acoustic jacinth]

I just love using this MT

[keen ember]

wow, found one in dropzone 4 that was the same colour and it was c-class 😭

[mossy herald]

dope, legit, this works?? need to get rid of the tissue box im cruising around in, and miss my vulture, which got renamed on main save lol, but wondered if i did it and copied it back at the end if it would break my maxed out vulture already in collection

[halcyon oar]

Same system, I think. Planet was Kijaveda Prime. Found it while taking out the corrupted sentinels for the milestone.

[pine relic]

No reason to worry about that, it wouldn't affect existing copies in any way whatsoever. Reward ships get a random name when you clone 'em with this method tho, but you can always rename it back after copying.

[wide jackal]

Noo, not poor liquidator! He’s guided all our lost souls to each drop point!

[mossy herald]

wish i knew this sooner bahaha thanks heaps!!!!

[burnt needle]

This is the type of Sentinel ship i go for. They look like detached giant mech heads.

[acoustic jacinth]

After 2 Days of searchijg the system like a Needle in a haystack, I finally found it!

[trail rock]

Second planet in the starter system,it's underwater

[acoustic jacinth]

Here is how to look at it from view of tue Starter System, look down, not around.

I finally found the 12 Predator Planet in Dropzome 3.

[dapper depot]

if i use the terminal to bring technology and cargo for the expedition will i be able to get them back once im done?

[pine relic]

Yes, if you don't use it all you can transfer the remaining stuff back at the end.

[dapper depot]

and i can also make a copy of my ship just for the expedition right?

[burnt needle]

From what Bliss was saying earlier, it'll make an exact copy of your ship to use in the expedition. Class, storage space, and everything installed in tech. Only thing removed is stuff in cargo storage.

Same for your multi tool

[acoustic jacinth]

I finally got the 12 Predator Milestone!

[wide jackal]

Omg, wait I didn’t scrap the Javelin, it was chilling in my Minotaur the entire time!

[burnt needle]

Woo! Congratulations! Now slay the beast since it was so hard to find.

[pine relic]

I think you have to pay for the copy in nanites... I've only copied ships / MTs from expedition to main save, never the other way around, but I'm guessing it works the same way.

[acoustic jacinth]

Why slay it?

[lusty slate]

It does. I bring a bunch of sus packets over if I'm planning to copy my MT

[acoustic jacinth]

My favorite packets are the Sus Packets (Arms)

[pine relic]

Its nice to have some X modules, but since expeditions are fairly quick I usually feel that S class stuff is sufficient. X class takes a lot of time and effort to reroll properly.

[rough dirge]

Why i cant to finish the expedition? I finished all the phases but the button is "return to main save" not a "finish expedition"

[lusty slate]

....I meant to sell.

[acoustic jacinth]

For anyone who wants to Search for 12 Predator, 3rd Dropzone System, look for this Crab. It spawns near caves.

[pine relic]

If you started from the anomaly terminal, you need to finish it from the anomaly terminal as well. The options menu will only show 'return to main save'.

[rough dirge]

that terminal?

[pine relic]

yep

[rough dirge]

so yes, i talk about him

[lusty slate]

Also, you might want to turn to save without finishing for now and come back when the optional milestones are done.

[pine relic]

Maybe you have some milestone that you still need to claim rewards from?

[rough dirge]

i think about it, maybe its an aswer idk

[rough dirge]

i have one bugged, the game says "inventory full"

[pine relic]

change to a multi-tool that is not S class

[rough dirge]

i emptied my inventory but its wont work

[pine relic]

that will let you claim the reward

[rough dirge]

ah ok bro, ill try now

[crude bobcat]

is there a list of all the scannables for the starter planet? missing 2 flora and 7 minerals >.>

[pine relic]

not to my knowledge, at least no one shared such a list so far... I've only seen that shared in that one expedition that required to fully scan a planet lol

[shell oriole]

yo guys, anyone can tell me where is the starting point?

[pine relic]

people were very frustrated with that one

[pine relic]

its in the pinned messages

[crude bobcat]

yea getin pretty salt with this one lol

[shell oriole]

ain't it

[pine relic]

Well, at least for this expedition you don't NEED to do it... :P

[crude bobcat]

ok if thats the case ima skip that lol

[pine relic]

#nms-expedition message

[shell oriole]

ik

it's not there

[halcyon oar]

The only thing you actually NEED to scan for this one is the 12.0 creature.

[pine relic]

the only thing you're required to scan is a predator with high aggression rate, so you don't really need to worry about scanning plants / minerals (tho you can do it just for fun if you like that sort of thing)

I guess it improves the end-of-expedition score a bit if you do a lot of scanning, tho I never bother

[acoustic jacinth]

I am rn running around in Circle in a 301°C storm. I am being cooked.

[lusty slate]

I don't scan in expeds unless I need to. No point if I don't bring over my maxed scanning MT.

[halcyon oar]

To be fair, around phase 4 this exbedition gave me an +7000% booster to scanning

[pine relic]

even if I had a MT with a bunch of S or X class scanning modules I still wouldn't bother with it, its not like you need units to finish an expedition quickly... or nanites for that matter

[shell oriole]

time to do it myself and ping it here ig

[halcyon oar]

Well, this one does need 6k nanite for a milestone. But you tend to get that fairly passively

[pine relic]

I usually go for the minimum amount of gearing up needed to get thru the expedition instead of trying to max out stuff

[lusty slate]

True, especially with the terminal now. Just bring over a few expensive items to sell and you're set

[pine relic]

I got that just from selling the non-S modules that I got from milestone rewards

[halcyon oar]

true

[lusty slate]

I don't ever copy my ship though. The default one is always fine for me.

[pine relic]

same here. Never felt the need to copy ship or MT yet

[lusty slate]

I only copy MT if I know there's a lot of combat. I'm too used to using my pulse splitter

[pine relic]

I didn't even install additional stuff in the MT that I started with. The only adjustment I made was moving tech around to make better use of SC slots

scatter blaster was good enough to finish the entire expedition

[lusty slate]

I do usually bring a stasis device/fusion igniter though. Whatever units I don't use gets transferred back anyway

Which was nice in Adrift for those cheap emergency scanners.

[pine relic]

I really liked adrift in terms of vibe / theme but to be honest I don't really remember the milestones at all lol

[rough dirge]

That works, thank you much

[burnt needle]

A.I. valves would work better no?

[pine relic]

It was very nostalgic. The universe being super empty reminded me a lot of how the game as on launch.

[real sparrow]

Question about the Liquidator parts for the minotaur, in the expedition they are tied to optional objectives but don't appear to be expedition rewards on the other side. Any ideas how to get them outside of the expedition?

[pine relic]

They're from the regular quicksilver shop, not from the expedition rewards list.

[real sparrow]

aaaaah

[lusty slate]

I don't do a lot of ship scapping these days unless I want a part. And I'm on Switch, so I don't get them handed to me. I don't have those laying around a lot. One fusion igniter is more than enough for an exped anyway.

[burnt needle]

Fair enough.

[pine relic]

its nice that they're focusing a lot on bringing the switch up to par with the other platforms. Even this latest experimental patch had a lot of switch optimization stuff (and crash fixes).

[lusty slate]

5.0 plays like dream too. A lot of little things that used to lag don't anymore.

[burnt needle]

Hopefully they'll get multiplayer thrown in there, even if it's just basic Switch to Switch for now.

[pine relic]

apparently that was more nintendo's fault than HG

from what I heard anyway

[lusty slate]

I'm fine without mp. I'd rather they work on keeping it stable.

[burnt needle]

Japanese companies not wanting to play nice with others. Lol.

Sony didn't want to allow it for the longest time.

[lusty slate]

They've done great, really. Went the extra mile a few times. HG didn't have to program a special Nexus and Trace of Metal for us, but they did.

[pine relic]

If I recall, it was something about nintendo disliking the lack of active moderation for multiplayer, some nonsense related to ESRB ratings (or local equivalents for other countries) and their impact on sales

Not sure if that's still the cause for the holdup... but I doubt that it would be difficult (in terms of technology) for HG to implement switch-only multiplayer, at the very least

[copper talon]

I really do try with this fucking game. but when DOG CORRUPTED SENTINALS DONT FUCKING COUNT AND IM FIGHTING 20 DOGS TO FIGHT 3 SENTINELS WHY THE FUCK AM I WAISTING MY TIME

HOOOOOOOLLLYYYYYY SSSHHHHIITTTTT THIS FUCKING MISSION CAN FUCK OFF
