Message in a bottle can be fished up from any body of water on that planet. Usually there is one nearby
I think the first one with a message is fishing spot 2 "The one that..." is the quest
Do I need bionic lures to get a legendary fish?
Because I am fresh out with no means of creating more I swear this expedition hates me
Ah nvm
If I forgot to transfer over items before the expedition, can i pause it, return to primary save, deposit them, then resume?
nah, funnily enought I got a legendary as my second fish, never saw another one. Though it likely helps your chances
no you can't once you start that's it. But you should do just fine even without items. The rewards from other milestones should be enough
If I start an expedition in a certain save, and the expedition ends, will I keep all the "stuff" I got in the expedition? Or technologies? Can I bring stuff back to the original save I started from?
sorry for the late reply; i'd strongly recommend always making it to the end if you started the expedition run from existing save
Oh hi bk, thanks for answering, do I get to keep that cool thing you mentioned way back that is unique to expedition 16? If you do the expedition from an existing save? There's a save I got with some really good stuff I'd like to make the main one
remember that phase and final expedition rewards are always unlocked account wide, so meaning that after unlocked, they can be claimed once per save, present or future, under the same account. for that purpose, an expedition run started from an existing save counts as a different save.
boundary herald, the ship from expedition 16, is a final reward, which means that you'll get to claim it from the quicksilver shop in any of your saves, should you wish
so basically, to get that ship, you have to complete expedition 16 before it ends
Oh I was talking about that special crafting thing you mentioned that can locate...something? A structure of some sort? Forgot 😬
I've been claiming the two frigates during expeditions because they pay nanites.
ahh - elixir of quicksilver, a consumable to directly locate a portal.
2 goals:
- if you want to be able to craft elixir of quicksilver after expedition 16 ends, you must start exp16 run from new save (so that when you finish, it converts to a normal mode save, but keeps the known blueprints, including elixir of quicksilver)
- if you just want to craft as many elixir of quicksilver as you can during expedition 16, and then bring those to a main save (that you pick to be such), you'd have to start an exp16 run from that desired main save
Right, so it locates portals, are those the huge building things? If so I probably don't need it then 👍
yep, which can easily be located in other ways too, it's just that elixir of quicksilver makes that process into 1 step
What does dinural mean?
It's the opposite of nocturnal, so active in the day.
for example, dangling orb bait iirc
Figured
For the uncommon fish milestones- what if I catch rare or higher?
Nvm figured it out
Finished yesterday was fun this was my 2nd expedition that I have done fully usually I just do a couple things here and there I regret not finishing them I'm going to start doing them from now on
Any tips for the large fish milestone?
I used the bionic lure in deeper water, but it's sort of a pain to craft
or do you mean the one where you have to scan for it? I just scanned fish in the water at the Fishing Spot 5 planet
Wait- there's one you have to scan for??
Hopped in the water to get that
yep that one
Good news everyone!
Did we get any new ships
The next expedition is on the 26th if I am not mistaking?

Why is there no arm piece to the diver’s cosmetics from Aquarius? It looks really strange without a glove type or something.
There's no arm piece?
Damn
Can i still finish the expedition if i start right now?
You have four days to do it
Depends on how much you play
Takes between 4-12 hours to finish depending on how lucky you are
I only need 3 more high temp fish, done it in 2.5 hours
pokes head in Ah, Aquarius now?
I'm debating whether I want to rerun The Cursed when it comes back...
Anyone got pointers on ways to farm this expedition for nanites and units
I've been taking up acts of piracy
Nanites
Release the fish you catch
Units
Uhhh prolly anything that usually is good for farming units
Maybe sentinel ship scrapping
Got it
Also does nms bring new expeditions?
I'm new and I keep seeing players mention redux and reruns?
Throughout the year new expeditions are released
Then at the end there’s expedition reduxes which are reruns of that years expeditions and sometimes also an older expedition with different rewards
Usually the expeditions are longer than 2 weeks and with a bit of a gap between
Oh that's explains it
Thank You so much
Yup. For example, Aquarius first ran in September.
You don't, you just need to have the milestone selected
What did everyone choose to do with the Angler?
some will release it, others will sell it, some may even cook it
Some keep it
It's chillin' in my storage and hanging out with some legendaries
Does anyone know what system can I find Planet Hoburf Sigma?
how do i find an iridated planet for the fishing expedition?
i keep warping and i can't find one
Pinned. #nms-expedition message
Rdv 4.
thanks a lot
wdym Rdv 4?
In the system with rendezvous 4
ah ty
I just warped couple times to the system with water and hint said this system have right planet.
You can also select an item, like gamma root, from the guide and it will highlight a system with it on the galaxy map.
so like is it worth crafting the tech upgrades you get from the research station? I’m only using the tech upgrades I found in shops and drops
if you need something to help you along, sure, why not? just make sure to review milestone rewards, to learn if there's any that will unlock any, possibly that you may really want to use
They don't apply to the 3 tech limit, so yeah there's that
I can't find a irridated planet with water, can someone help me?
The planet you go to for the 4th fishing spot works.
Hoburf Sigma
So you're telling me I've wasted my whole day instead of just asking this part of the server? Oksy then, thanks for the help, I'll probably be back when I need to know where an ice planet is or whatever that other qeust is, thanks for telling me
It won't show me which planet to go to
even though I have it marked
nvm
for some reason it made me go to the third one
Ig I'll do the third stuff then go to No.4
Does Hyperborean planet counts as icy world? Catch uncomon in frozen world quest still 0/3
It should
Like this, does it have snow on it?
I moved away from my base and it started to count.
After Aquarius phase 3 i will not need base anymore and safely can remove the one i built for quest?
It was not safe 😂 fishing trap got invisibility and i need to restart with new trap 😂😂😭😭
Is it over
Is what over?

Its a legendary fish tho no? I got it anyway but its legendary, and the bionic lure is capable of catching legendary fish
Why does this base not show up for random people? I can stan here just fine but all of em are phasing through my builds
it says it here as well, there are two bases here
well, don't know, could be a bunch of reasons, e.g. the system is filled with uploaded player bases that exhaust save file base parts limit
Random question, but where do I get your cape/shoulder wrap?
shoulder wrap is returner's drape from autophage content it looks to me; the cape looks to be geometric cape from qs shop
autophage terminals
And the cape is from quicksilver on the anomaly indeed
(afaik, only way to get returner's drape in to an expedition run is to have them equipped in your main character and start the exp run from that save)
Hello Guys I have the Problem with the Hit Fish so my question is how Can I get back to that one Spot is there a base I Can war or someting Else
goto any teleporter, teleport back to rendezvous 2 system station
youll see it labeled as such
my game is on german do i need to go back to the second meeting?
yeah, that should have a suitable planet
check the milestone hint
🙂
and waht planet do you know it?
look for a planet with solanium on resource list
Yes found it
should have water too
is there a stormy planet somewhere
look for any planet with water with activated copper/cadmium/emeril/indium
thx
so i fished the hole storm and i didnt get any storm fisch what know i was on an ice strome planet
Can I still finish the expedition in time if I start now?
Yes i finished it in 6hrs
Thank you! ❤️ halt, danke und lg aus Bayern 😂
phase 5 scales of fire, is there a certain bait I am suppose to use?
Thanks!
Haha kleiner tipp für den weg wenn schau das du dir gleich zum anfang pulsköder machst und die beim sturm nutzt sonst hängst da weig dran
nope, no need, just rng, no bait needed, keep fishing, milestone selected
well ill finish that and the storm one tomorrow when my xbox stops crashing during the game
Omg danke für den Tipp! Hab jetzt erst mal meine mitgebrachten Piratenpakete geöffnet und die Upgrades verhökert, um mein Schiff und das Multitool zu kopieren 😂 hattest du für die Fische, die man braucht, ne Liste oder findet man die gut?
Use storm bait, i'll forgot name. Got storm fish in first few mins of storm with that bait.
It called Magpulse Lure
Do all the discovery information go to the community event? or do you have to pick up quest from NPC/Board?
^(answered in -help)
@fading ibex, @vast forge probably better to take non-english speak to dms (also assuming that's german, there's a german nms server too)
It can only show up if you have the quest selected
still doesnt answer my question
Yes it's legendary, but I think it has common or boosted odds
Alright thanks. Got it first try with the bionic lure
Sorry!
What are the best technologies to take on expeditions? Is it true that the iridium hyperdrive package also includes cadmium and emeril?
correct, indium drive accumulates all previous "tier" colors hyperdrive tech i.e. cadmium and emeril. check this pinned post <#nms-expedition message>
I keep forgetting that the expedition switches over on the 22nd, not the 20th...
Hi. How to get uncommon radioactive fish?
Thank you!
use rarity bait e.g. bionic lure, fish on a planet with gamma root in resource list: only uncommon or rarer and must say "in radioactive waters" in the description
thx
this is offtopic for this channel, but i'd say that a 6 core cpu with 12 threads would have no problems pushing a gpu with 12 or more gigs vram - though i'd probably suggest staying away from hybrid cpus i.e. have both performance and efficiency cores
Can I take back my frieghter to my primary save even if I gained it in the expidition?
i wonder if this will help <#bot-spam message>
cheers and alright ill move it to off topic next time
I will measure in game. Then i will find a way to count placed floors just to make fast building of teleport chain or idk, clusters of refiners. So i need units, not a size comparison - but that comparison was very interesting and useful. So thank you for valuable info.
sorry, i knew it wasn't exactly what you needed, had hoped it would help a little at least
Help I can’t get the second message in a bottle
Select the milestone in the log and keep fishing without any bait
I'm about to end My expedition. Couldn't farm much
Any idea what the next one will be?
Cursed i believe

Not really, it's very different though
Here you go: (Next is Cursed) https://www.nomanssky.com/2024/11/holiday-2024-expeditions/
how do you switch starship while you're at space anomaly?
Use the Quick Menu. Down on D-Pad or I believe X on keyboard.
It's under Summon Vehicles (looks like a cone shape).
Then use Select other ship option
I see it now, its called "switch docked ship" if you're on space anomaly or space station. my bad
No worries, glad you got it!
Does having several multi tool or starships have limit?
So far I got 3 each from copying them from expedition.
we can own up to 12 ships and 6 tools per save
Ohh, theres a limit. Too bad.
How about if you have 12 starship at the moment, but you wanna claim a starship reward from twitch or expedition. Do I need to permanently delete that starship for me to use the new one?
the game would only let you to exchange your currently equipped ship, instead of also giving you the option to add to collection
I havent claimed most of the rewards from twitch/expedition, but now that I know this. I am now hesitant to claim the rewards because I think it might delete those starships or skins?
or you could get rid of a ship first yeah
delete them? from?
from the save file
Or rewards from twitch/expedition are account-binded? even if you create a new one you can still use them anytime? Or am I wrong?
well, remember that we can only claim them once per save, yeah, so that means that if you claimed a twitch ship, then scrapped it for example, you couldn't get it again in that same save by claiming from qs shop
yes, exp/twitch and a bunch of others are unlocked account wide
ooof, thats unfortunate.
quicksilver purchases for example
that said, you could claim the twitch ship in an exp run started from existing save, and then copy it back to primary that way, but you'd be basically dependent on that feature
But once you claimed it and get rid of it to replace for a new one. That skin/reward is lost forever right?
on that save, yes.
claimed from qs shop, on that save, yes.
any other save could still claim it from qs shop
for free? even a new save file?
tips on finding message #3?
just fish on the same planet
no bait needed
Ok, i may need to figure out which planet that is again then XD
Secret Fishing Spot III
System: Vunutu-Eami VI
Planet: Eslemecu Delta
goto station teleporter, find station on the list that says rdv3 below the name
well, i think i'm still in the same system (right now at a station processing rewards), i'll double check that... i'm fairly certain i'm still in that system, just don't remember which planet it is XD
Planet: Eslemecu Delta
is it just a matter of RNG for the message?
cause the base i've built was on that planet XD
yep
and ofc having the right milestone selected
best bait for the bigger fishes?
The only limited things you can have are the starships and multi tool?
How about the other skins?
skins?
check <#nms-expedition message>
Yes, for your character, jetpacks, etc...
which rendevous has a hot planet in it? i feel like one had one but i can't seem to find it. i remember seeing alot of "hot" fishing outposts somewhere
yes, there's no limit to how many "skins" you can have unlocked
rdv2
ty
solanium on resource list
sorry for asking too much
on the character skins, once you've claimed it. You can still claim them on new save files right?
this is specifically from twitch/expe
yes, there's no such thing as "claimed once per account"
it's claimed once per save
unlocked account wide
claimable once per save
any reward that's unlocked account wide
non consumable quicksilver purchases, expedition rewards, twitch, autophage, scrap dealer,
Understood, thank you.
i'm alsmot done with the expedition but i'm having trouble with the hidden objective. i have it unlocked but i don't know how to do it?
do i just keep fishing?
Make sure it is the active mission and keep fishing. It'll happen.
Anyone able to help with the Abyssal Wonder? Trying my hardest to find a place, but not sure where to go to get the 75kg fish
just as i came back to check on the response it happened. must have caught like 20-30 fish before it finally happened.
lastly, i can't for the life of me catch a fish during a storm. i'm using the magpulse bait and still nothing
Why’s it so difficult to find a heavy fish lol
On last planet i just used visor in deep water.
yo
so i have expedition saves from before
can i still continue them for rewards
like i have the adrift one still as a file
Yeah, after you finish the expedition or the expedition ends, they just become a regular save and you can start expeditions from the Anomaly.
No, once the expedition ends it is no longer available, even if you still have the save from it. No more access to the expedition on the server.
darn
Oh I see, I thought you were wondering if you can continue doing any expeditions with a save that did an expedition.
There a recommended strat to getting the legendary fish?
Have the mission selected, use Bionic lures.
Is there conditions for a storm to start, or do I just have to wait around for it?
Hmmm I guess the planet I'm on has "infrequent storms" better go find a better one
yes you just have to wait for storm
are any of the Rendezvous systems in a Mercenary Faction?
Expedition complete!
Another planet that I doubt will be seeing a tourist flood
though, seems a lot like Florida 🤔
Full of Fosils?

Yo do i have time to start an expedition
If u got time and focus yea
With a bit of rng luck it can be fast
dude i love this game but man, if it was not for the things that you all do for us at hello games how are you going to put me on a deralict freighter? then arm every defense turrett but when i fire the freighter dissapears? wtf and they still hit me, thanks for the bs deaths. although i loose no progress and jesus fix these graphical glitches. and why does my foookin flashlight always never work on a frieghter, i love the free stuff and the devs are much much better like 1000 percent better thsn the arc bs situation that they pull in fact this is probably the most redeemed game i play, but jeeeeeeeezuz i hate loosing progress because i fall out of the freighter and land on a planet. ok rant done still my favorite game i can not scream here so i had to rant. i done 
ps i love this game im not bitchin just needed a rant,
Not sure why this is in Expeditions and not somewhere like The Future but understand that even NMS is "mortal" with warts and all. As a Starfield refuge everything is sooooo much better that even falling through my freighter floor feels like bonus content 😉
When does it end
because i am in the expedition and i was wondering if anyone had the same experience, also maybe you did not read my ps. sometimes a vent is needed i will do it in another category next time. not crapping on the game jus frustrated.
Ah ok nice, saw 1 day today when i logged maybe was a bug
guys, what happens to stuff in my inventory when I finish expedition?
I get currencty, but how much? as much as if I just sold it?

should I sell anything or just leave it (like starship ai valves)
in that case value should be the same - 12M each
personally, i feel safer selling it myself 😄
What's a twitch ship?
"unique" ships that were rewarded as part of twitch drop campaigns
Oh I don't use twitch sadly
Thanksss
I have a question. When we finish and expedition we get nanites, I know for a bunch of things but I'm talking about the nanites we make through like missing and you breaking down tech and stuff. My question is the we get a return on what have left or the total nanites we made?
well, ai valves are actually the only thing I don't sell
I keep them as trading currency
you don't get any bonus nanite reward from having amassed nanites themselves, but it will merge back those balances to primary
you get bonuses for discovering planets, learning words etc.
"nanites harvested" = exp total
from missions, selling modules, refining stuff etc
So does that mean I wasted time harvesting nanites?
Ohvwait
Wait expedition total solar that means the total amount i made.
yes, and all will be merged back to primary save
yep, definitely works like that
They'd only be wasted if you bought and installed unnecessary upgrades
Hey in what expedition do we get the boundary herald?
In the cursed
Will be on in 2 days
any planet in an inhabited system (iow, gek, korvax, vykeen) will work -- find an abandoned building, there's always whispering egg clusters near those
abandoned buildings can easily be found using emergency charts or exocraft radar tech (radar amplifier)
ohh ok thx I did a boo boo and forgot my pirate shipment things to turn into nanites to get my ship and multitool oops
hello is there a guide and tips for the current expedition
In the pins
You can also just ask any questions here
Yep
Ug this stinks. Not finding any whispering eggs

If a chart type e.g. Alien can locate 3 building types, then to guarantee that you find the building you want you will need to obtain as many charts e.g. 3 Alien charts
-
If the first chart you use doesn't mark the building type you need, do not visit it.
-
Spam Use as many charts of the same type as needed, until you have the HUD marker to the building type you need.
The message "Similar location already marked" appears when a chart tried to mark a building type that is already marked on the HUD - ignore it and spam Use chart key/button until it goes through.

- Outlaw space stations do not spawn cartographers.
- The message "Locational interference detected" appears when a chart is used in an Uncharted aka Uninhabited system.

To be able to get specific planetary charts from the Station Cartographer, we need nav data. Easily gathered from lootable objects around Space Stations.
Alternative sources:
- Some Component/Tech Vendor npcs in Minor Settlements/Planetary Archives;
- Waypoint/windmill save points, often next to buildings, the first time they're interacted with.
- Ancient Data Structure clusters on some planets;

abandoned building is so common that you might not even need to buy more than 1 chart
All the buildings I have found so far havent been abandoned so no eggs as of yet. the hunt continues
Ok I don't know how long I spent looking for a scorched planet for hot fishing or whatever it's called. Might have at least been an hour. I think after I found out what it does mean I might need guidance to find one with water to fish in.
Are those the ones you can refine for nanites or even cook? I'm sorry I was focusing on the expedition I kinda can't remember.
That is just random, and im sure there is one in some of the Rdz systems
I could land on the 5th rendezvous space station and teleport to it later right? So I could come back and do those or should I do the 5th rendezvous now?
You can, but you should drop a quick base computer on all rev systems
I'm kinda new to expeditions and how they work. I was too busy looking for a scorched planet that I didn't think about that stuff.
I only did like one expedition to completion.
Finally got my ship and multitool lol
so had bad RNG with the bionic lures... easy way to get more of them?
Make em

yeah, stupid lures have lubricant as an ingredient... that's a bit of a stretch to try and do on an expedition IMO
Do you need them to get the Legendary task done?
it helps, but i realized i did it the hard way XD
now to wrap up the expedition and go feed cronus a ton of stuff XD
I don’t like Cronus he’s a jerk
I feel like Cronus is a member of the 'Picky Eater's Club'! Lol
And cashout...
Wait a minute...so it gives you all the earnings as part of the reward? Is that right? Like if you start from a normal save
i spawned that from a normal save, and was able to throw in my S Class ship and MT, so I'm able to scrap both and generate a ton of credits
and that also helps pad nanites by selling off the S class mods that scrapping both creates
I'm confused about how that is done my main save could do with a huge boost rn should I start the next expedition from it?
you have to initiate the expedition from the main save in the anamoly
Got it, thanks
and it will take whatever the current active ship and MT is
like straight up copy them
but if you do that, you need to save the expedition ship and MT and use those for import back into the main save
cause you can't bring what you copy back into the main save
thus, duplicate tech and what not
Not sure I understand but I'll read the dialogs carefully when the time comes. Hope I won't lose any stuff
So this is the staff I had active when I started the expedition
Here's what I brought back:
so now i have duplicated the common mods between the two
So you lost your staff?
also before importing back, i vendor off and scrap everything
no, i still have it in the main save
that's what i screenshotted
like i will copy into expedition
Ohh ok
but i can't bring the staff back from the expedition
That doesn't seem like a good thing. I'd like to keep everything tbh
well the expedition subsave only lets you return a handful of things, specifically...
for an S Class ship and MT... you will need to throw in enough cargo to melt down for 5k nanites
which is easily doable by hopping pirate stations if you know what to buy
Same thing with the ships...
Ahh ok, thanks for explaining patiently. I'll start a new save then for the next expedition, need to keep my current stuff...don't want to lose this awesome solar ship
eh... you don't lose anything on the main save
All good, I'll find a YouTube video which explains it all then, don't want to waste more of your time. It's probably easier understood by seeing it working than explaining tbh 😅
it's just the expedition will allow you to copy whatever the active MT and ship on the main save into the expedition
whoever just invited me on the anomaly my game kicked me sorry, it just threw me from my freiighter to burn up in space lol i still love you NMS. Especially because you gave me these guys and that last guy i have been looking for forever. i never get to find the big bronto sized animals and its on a planet with two pillars to shut down. oh i finally got a Space Anomaly i have never seen before even though this game frustrates me to no end some days its still my favorite.
@flat perch are you on ?
@open vortex
@fringe palm
@ashen shore
Jesus like 50 different cains
Don't just ping random people.
How do you get the tree guys head?
Quicksilver merchant in the anomaly
Nice, how much?
No idea
a "dumb" question, just to make sure am doing the right thing, since expedition ends soon.
hotwater or ice world fish are on worlds with solaninum and frost crystal (and with water ofc :D) ? right?
curiosity question: depth only changes the size of fish you can catch? or is it generally better to go for deep water?
Different fish are in shallow water and deep water.
What expedition is next?
cursed
i know the cursed one is next but will there be any chances the old old ones returning like starting from 1 then going all the way to 16??? as i misses a few and would love to redo them all
Both 2023 and 2024 reduxes had reruns of a single older expedition with new rewards (3 and 2 respectively)…so maybe in 16 years
we don't know that's up to devs - that said, they have reran exp3 and exp2 a 2nd time, which they hadn't done before, so there's always the possibility that they pick some of the older, more popular ones to rerun a 3rd time
i guess there is no other way to replay them???
i thought i seen something about a mod but i could have been very very tired and dreamed that part
For PC platforms there are files that can be used to trick the game into thinking another expedition is active and play that
But that's a topic for #nms-modding
ok cheers for that ❤️
Hey I know its the last day, but what are some absolutely essential things I need to bring to make my life easier on Aquarius?
i still need to finish it, i wish i had brought this special bait (looks like its in a tube?!). needs lubricant to build 😦
my mouse started acting up and i lost the fish and precious bait 4 times 😦 and expedition only gives you 5 of them
Anyone know what time the expedition finishes in Australia? 😥

because gunter/discord displays stuff in the timezone of the client
I caught a picture with someone that picked that up. IIRC that's a quicksilver purchase
I read that nanites will be helpful for Cursed. I’ve been farming radiant shards, how many should I bring? Just fill up the slots?
each rad shard refines to 50 nanites. how many nanites will depend on what you intended on doing: if you plan on, for example, copying ship from primary save, that's about 3k nanites. personally, i'd suggest buying and bringing 30 or so sus packets tech or arms (unpack them in expedition, sell upgrade modules for nanites)
Oh yeah that’s a better call
there's stuff from pirate stations that are easier to get if you have infinite money
I don’t have infinite money yet but I’m living comfortably
i mean, i built a statis farm (then proceeded to break it during a remodel and haven't fixed it yet) so i'm sitting on like 3.5B credits atm
If you want to take it easy, an activated indium farm setup is generally good enough and requires a whole lot less effort than a stasis cell farm

I’m happy with my sentinel ship, upgraded her from C - S. So any brains i gather in combat I feed to the refinery
So yeah, Hyaline Brains are good to refine too
You can also bring in a full stack of runaway mould. It takes a while to refine, but it yields 1999 nanites.
Is it true we don’t warp in Cursed? Don’t we need to warp once to be able to summon the anomaly?
Travel in Cursed is all done with portals.
I guess my basic question is: will we be able to transfer stuff from main?
You can still summon the anomaly. Otherwise, how would you end the expedition?
You and your dumb logic. Thanks!
seems good logic to me
It was my first expedition, so my memories are a bit fuzzy.
Aw shit, does this mean I should bring along STACKS of all sorts of crap to recharge every portal?
no, you use potions
Yeah, there's a bunch of potions that are unique to the expedition.
Interesting…
Dont even have to dial, use potion, interact with portal and opens
With no Warpdrive, everyone in same 5 or so systems
From the wiki:
The expedition does not provide you with a hyperdrive and expects you to only travel by portal. Without Hyperdrive, you are limited to the star systems that the portals take you to. You could capture a Sentinel Interceptor and use it, but you don't need to, the reachable star systems have everything you need. You can return to previous systems using the Teleporter in the Space Station or Space Anomaly. The star system of Phase 3 (?) has no space station, build a base there if you want to be able to return quickly.
I play offline so enjoy bonking heads
I enjoyed cursed, cause of the different mechanic
Glad you bring this up. In these reduxes (Aquarius and Cursed), are there any milestones, even optional ones, that require community effort i.e. internet connection?
I kinda like seeing other players around during the expeditions. So rare to bump into another player during regular gameplay.
Sorry, I guess I meant with multiplayer off. And to answer your question yes
Alright then, thanks
hmm?
optionals?
in 15/16? not that i remember
@tired badger , @foggy cloud afaik there's no community research milestone in expedition 15 and expedition 16 - last to have community research was exp 14
i got my starship through the expedition termunis lol
yep, that works as well
probably best to make sure to return to system player last portaled to, before selecting milestone that will lead to the next rdv system
Hey I need some help with the expedition, I need help with the last 2 phases
when does the Expedition end
can you be a little more specific?

My main issue is catching a legendary fish I don’t know how to make or get the lubricant
Trying to make the bait that attracts them
could use cooked baits see <#nms-expedition message>
to get lubricant, easiest way would be to unlock bp from anomaly/synthesis laboratory
The other problem I’m having is “in hot water” the universe I’ve been to don’t have a hot planet with water
there's one in rendezvous 2 system
goto any teleporter, filter by stations, find the station that has rendezvous 2 below the station name
remember, any planet with water with solanium on resource list

Oh cool didn't know so much time was left. 😂
Yeah that's good
Still gonna miss the start of it though due to schedule
Oh yes, had a question. Is it advantageous to play expeditions in conjunction with other people?
situationally, perhaps yes; that said, each player does have to make their own progress - so i think that in the end, being in a voice chat with others that are progressing more or less at the same time can be advantageous, since tips can be more easily shared when encountered
Oh ok, thanks. Just was curious. I saw a lot of groups playing together when doing the expeditions and people seemed to be progressing faster than me here
hmm. well, the way i was thinking about it was: i'm in a voice chat with you, i find a planet that's suitable for one of the milestones, i share that info with you, speeding up your playthrough a little
because you wont have to keep an eye out yourself anymore
ofc, sharing resources can be helpful ofc, but some things it's the players themselves that have to do the progress i.e. milestone completion
Ok. I have very little time to play, about an hour per day. Would it still help? 2 weeks, right? I heard this one is one of the toughest expeditions 😅 for example, I took a good 15+ hours for the last expedition by stretching during the weekends, but can't this time
1 h a day, of actual pushing-through-getting-kzzt-done, will be more than enough, even completely on your own. i think that the reason why some say that exp16 is difficult is going to be in large part due to the various possible spawn points. in exp16, in the original run at least, it's actually possible to spawn underwater. underwater is a very different spawn condition, and combined with exp16's special mechanic (sorry, don't want to spoil it in case you haven't read anything about it), it can put the player into a difficult start scenario, especially if the player doesn't have a lot of knowledge. for example, in the eventuality of spawning near an island that doesn't have any copper, but you need some. there's no land nearby anywhere that you can see. how would you get out of that situation?
I would be completely stuck and have to probably restart it somehow lol
hint: your ship is on that island. your ship has rocket launcher tech installed.
rocket launcher can be dismantled for 100 copper and 50 condensed carbon.
here's another example.
your suit has neural stimulator tech installed. neural stim dismantles to 50 cond carbon, and 50 c metal
there's more like these
now let's throw a wrench on things:
how would you restart it, if you started from an existing save?
couldn't
you'd have to actually work with the current scenario
so you might think, oh so it's safest to do an exp16 run started from new save
certainly if then faced with a bad scenario, i'd just make a new save
yes; but take it from me, spawning underwater is unique
i think that most people will want to have that experience, regardless of how it eventually plays out
//end of monologue
By lucky chance i did Aquarius expedition, not this upcomming 16. Even on Aquarius i felt anger. Anger - but this is a game for pleasure, not an anger. So i just put all expeditions in a big case and buried under third tree in a forest. Expeditions is for tryhards or, at least, professionals. Some casual dude like me should keep away from expeditions 😂😂
nah i don't think so
i think that expedition 16 is definitely a bit on the harder side, but that's only if we ignore the tips: for example, it's only when a certain suit tech drops below 50% that some things become agressive.
early on -- that's easier said than done, tbh
because it can get overwhelming, especially if player likes to explore a bit first
Understand but my experience a bit different. I started NMS the week before Aquarius so total noob. I have done all since including the redux and I learned more doing the espeditions than i would ever have just focusing on the MSQ and side quests. I loved the challenges and problem solving/learning needed to push past things that initially seemed hard or intimidating. I would encourage you not to give up but look at them as super training sessions for new players with great unique rewards for having fun.
Expeditions is a game under pressure: it have strict goals and time limits. I work under pressure in my job, it's easy for me. But game for me shouldn't be job 😉
Btw, thanks for all help in Aquarius, to all Travellers and Interlopers, for advices and waypoints!
yeah, in a way, expedition hand helds a bit more
in most milestones anyway
some.. are left more to game knowledge, but that's okay
that's the learning experience, and even though it might be a different game mode, it's all still part of the journey
That plus the super great Atlas Emissary team really helps a ton. Truthfully, could not have done it without BK and the community -
I felt very frustrated at times, and stressed while playing these expeditions. And I play games to get away from the stress of life. Idk....but really want that ship for this next expedition so I'm gonna have to do it anyway, somehow 😞
Thanks but tbh I'm just far too exhausted after work to think of these things
in the name of everyone with the role, thank you - it is good to know that we're appreciated. that said, plenty of members not atlas emissaries who know the game just as well if not in even more detail, and we're thankful for everyone helping make this being a really nice and welcoming community. 🙂
i think that playing for a bit in a voice chat with friends will help making the experience a bit more fun
Wait, you have friends? What's that like? 😄
Same 😬 (unless you count enemies as friends 🤷♀️)

I think it'd be neat if they always existed in some biomes or maybe in uninhabited or abandoned systems.
(agreed)
what time does the new expedition start?
probably around 1-2pm GMT
ive got no enemies just people i hate 😂
(fr, expedition 16 is my favorite in term of mechanics, i would legit like to play a gamemode of it only)
👍
I submitted the idea to HG. If not on worlds, they could even be enemies on derelict freighters.
Is it me? Do I become aggressive?
The next redux starts after aquarius finishes or is there wait time?
bruh i hate this expedition, its so rng based on some things, i have been fishing for very long now to get a fish you can only obtain during storm and still didn't get any
same for uncommon fish on frozen world
yay lvl up at least
I’m unable to to teleport to rendezvous 2 it’s not showing up
probably going to be like exp15 ends, a few hours later exp16 starts
are you using bait for those milestones?
yes
have you been to rendezvous 2? Meoalf-Ohi system?
well, can get unlucky sure, but if you're using the right baits then it shouldn't really take long ime
Welp. I don't have time to finish the expedition. 😭
when does the next expo start?

That only tells me when this one will end
not sure, but probably at about 1-2pm GMT
hey can i join an expedition from the anomaly from my main save?
yes
then all your rewards will transfer to your main save upon completion
thank you Snail
and you can leave the expedition, go back to your main save, go back to the expedition freely as long as you havent ended it too @vital vine

The Cursed - Expedition 16 Redux
https://discord.gg/nomanssky?event=1331474626143850536
Oh dear 😬 my nemesis lol
LOL, was just thinking the same thing. Died three times on the initial play through and couldn't figure out why until the third time - i was blowing myself up using plasma at close range.... but as a new player i found it the most difficult one out of the box
The next one is Cursed, right? If so, yay, then I’m caught up
Yep, says so right above lol
I am going to be asking for co-op support for this one tbh. Have no choice really 😅
Is Aquarius supposed to start off with my Starship stuck inside of a crashed freighter, and if so, how do I retrieve my ship?
I've tried getting to it both from inside and outside that section, it's in between the bulkheads.
No way to get close enough that I see.
Meh. I didn't really need another reason to dislike the implementation of Expeditions, but add this to the list, I suppose.
Uhhh I've never seen that before
Modders were messing in a similar way wit last expedition. Try switching off multi player.
Nah, I'm not even going to bother. Less than five hours left anyway, not worth the time.
But hey, the time limits are cool, right?

I don't disagree but in my case I should have started earlier. I didn't realize trying to find a specific planet with water was going too be hard too do. I might have passed by the systems with a hot planet with water but I suppose it's too late to worry now.
My ship was stuck. But I was close enough that I could access the inventory and repair it
Then I had my ship fly itself to another spot
I'm so sorry that happened to U 😞
Do go report it. I've heard about it happening to several people both in this Expedition and the last one. The spawn location should never be inside of a crashed freighter like that, so they've done something wrong. Some were able to get close enough to interact, repair, and then summon it, but you shouldn't have to go through that.

Do you guys got any tips for legendary fish?
(my ass be speedrunning the exp last 6 hours rahhh)
Alr
Thx 
Damn got it way sooner than I expected
Thanks again J!
Is this fish limited only to Expedition?
Considering if it would be a good idea to take it to my primary save
can't catch it outside of this expedition
You can catch a fish in any storm right?
Yes, as long as it says, 'STORM' or 'EXTREME STORM' on the lower left of your HUD you have a chance of catching the Storm fish for the Milestone.
Thx!
Are there any fish tank blueprints to save my fish in my base ?
Not that i know of, that would be AWESOME tho. What i do is just kinda create one with the custom discovery display and then i create like a fishtank lol
Yeah! It would be amazing, I think the same thing 🙂
I wish we had a way to make a legit one, and also have a way to let our pets on our base that they actually can walk around and stuff
run away and talk to creators on it
Dooo it xD

new expedition will start as soon as this end, or there will be a delay?
redux are usually one right after the other
Ok I’m panicking a little I still haven’t catch fish from a storm it’s the only milestone I need left
just find an extreme weather planet
we got like 2 hours left
i still gotta sell 300k, get the angler himself, get 3 hot planet fish and set up a trap
IIRC RDV2 or 3 was a hot planet
use megpulse lure and wait for storm
and pray
🙏
Good prep for expedition 16?
I was told not to always trust YouTube videos and there aren't many other resources on the reruns
I was told bring LOTS of dihydrogen
Also bringing 50 each of suspecious tech and arms packets
For as many nanites as I can squeeze out of them, so I can get my ship and mulititool as quickly as possible.
Also was told 1000 tainted metal
I do wonder if it's worth bringing a prepackaged personal refiner.
usually you get one fairly early in the expedition
Awesome, thanks
Nice to finally finish up the fishing
Is it worth trying to build a minotaur bay in this one?
curse you un-stormy-fish!
Make sure you get the bait for storm fish, be out in the open (so you get the storm effects on you)
Mag-something lure
For more frequent storms I believe extreme planets help; planets with "activated copper/emeril/indium/cadmium"
that...makes sense. I should have grabbed the expedition hauler instead of the wipeout racer
you don't need to be out in the open
just build a shed on the ocean and leave a hole in the middle of the floor
then wait
for storm
Doesn't take that long from what I experienced
5-10 minutes maybe? I spent some time fishing while waiting for the three traps I set up to catch fish
Around 1h to fully fill it. Place more than one
This was for getting 1 fish in the trap
And maybe some more on other planets to speed up things
If they only need 1 more fish it might be counterproductive to go to other planets now to set up more, since there's only 10 minutes left
whew! getting bonked by lightning and not being able to move made that last catch a bit tense. but tension is welcomed.

Expedition Info
Game mode explained:
Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.
To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future
Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means, including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players (
) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

5 chapters. Each chapter composed of sub-missions. It's scripted too. And finally each completed chapter gives a unique skin. Completing all chapters gives a huge reward. Here is the one from 16
a unique exotic spaceship
Le Boundary Herald 🥖
Ok nice, will join the next one
In the case of The Cursed… don’t bother sending an indium drive. You won’t even have access to a hyperdrive.
Explorer*. omega exp ship was exotic type.
Actually, how will you even get Space Anomaly access?
Not all expedition ships are classified as exotic? My bad
you must have progressed sufficiently in the main quest
And what is considered sufficient in The Cursed?
No problem. If u are not into min maxing then stats are not important.
Because you can’t just warp…
the first time you warp to another system is usually when Anomaly access opens up, no?
is there a major difference with The Curse?
you just dont have a hyperdrive
Yes. Usualy.
oh damn ok ye lol
Do NOT min-max a ship’s maneuverability stat. At 6000+ maneuverability, it becomes unflyable.
oh sorry. Normally leaving the basic solar system is enough. I was thinking of the base game
Depends on ship type. I have 4.2k on sentinel and still turns like narcoleptic snail
when is the next redux expedition?
Today
in a few hours ish
do we have an exact time? trying to plan my stream this afternoon
nope
I around 2pm uk time maybe. Its always afternoon uk time
Exact time can be diffrent for each platform
excellent 😁
I hope I can achieve Level 5 by the time the expedition starts. that way I can link some music you can listen to as you escape the collapse of reality
Uh… speak of the devil
Your wish was granted.

2 hours
Unless you claim an interceptor, in which case the indium drive can be paired with the equivalant tech
or copy an existing ship from primary
I think last time, I grabbed up the Utopia Speeder, I think it had one installed
it's part of their default layout, no way for them not to
Or maybe that was a different one - all these redux have my head spinning, lol
What a time to be alive, lol
😄
how did you get that much ?:O
Good modules with good layout. Good sc slots. +photonix core unique tech from starborn runner ship from exp 13.
sentinels only get full maneuver when boosting
I have a full set of s-class modules, everything from anomaly and photonix core, in menu it says it's below 1k
two modules (including PC) are in SC slots
that doesn't sound right
SC luminance engine instead of 1 of the modules
so engine + PC should be in sc slots?
we're comparing the stat number from starship equipment screen, right?
i'd suggest SC luminance engine + 1 s-class pulse engine module at least - PC isn't as strong as a good s-class module
unless the modules are pretty much bottom of the barrel.. yeah, i'd sc a module instead of pc
It didn't for me. And it's not Gunters clock in that case, since it's actually just a Unix timestamp with Discord showing it differently based on whether it's written <t:1737549060:R> (<t:1737549060:R>) or <t:1737549060:t> (<t:1737549060:t>)
Could be a Discord app bug. I saw someone report an issue like this on Reddit. Maybe try clearing Discord's cache and restarting the app?

How can I check if I did this expedition before. I think I did but dont want to give spoilers by saying what I got at the end 😉
And is there any point doing an expedtion twice?
goto quicksilver shop, collect expedition rewards, switch to exp16 filter
Any chance of getting a freighter in this exp? Or does the no-warping negate that?
If you go to the Space Anomaly, to the QS vendor, you can see the list of rewards. Prob easiest way to see in-game if you've unlocked them. You can categorize by expedition name on there
Didnt see that option thanks. So I have done it before ... too bad
For most, not really. Unless you want to re-experience things. For some, if you start with your main save, you can bring over some nice rewards like extra quicksilver. But it depends on the expedition since you can't earn more copies of the main phase rewards anyway
if you have a warp capable ship, rescue battle events should be available yep
Neat. I was hoping to be able to get one to get the ability to summon my minotaur from anywhere. Not sure how useful that'll be in this expedition, though.
wait i thought we had no hyperdrive in this exp?
couple options:
- claim a sentinel ship in exp
- copy/claim a ship via anomaly that has an hyperdrive
that said, yes, the intended way to reach the next rdv is via portal
aaah copy still works, sweet
Would it be worth bothering to try to get a minotaur in this exp?
it will help, there's a few combat milestones
guess salvage datas gonna come in handy then
also, storm crystal collecting
oh wait, nevermind, this one has a collect mission but it's bones
Ah. Still worth it then?
sure sure, if not just for the combat parts alone
Awesome
kill sentinels, boundary horrors, baby worms
lmao
there it is
i knew there was a storm crystal collecting milestone
geesh
buried in the middle of notes
i'm sorry for the mixup - there's both a bones and a storm crystal milestone
Okay I think I'm fully prepped then.
Copy?
To copy your ship from the existing save into the expedition at the terminal.
remember: terrain manipulator delete then flatten -- fear the sun needs 1600 cubic u of dirt for insta personal refiner unlock
when it comes to elixirs: have multiplayer disabled, gather the mats for them, but craft them, use them when told to by the milestone hint
Dirt as in silicate?
This is a strange exp
Why does multiplayer have to be disabled?
I don't know the specifics for this one. I'm sure Bkay will provide more details. But from personal experience in NMS, a few things can get extra glitchy when MP is enabled. 
to try and avoid any issues with marked portal interactions (and that interaction data being synced over a network instance to/from other players)
yeah, remember those milestone types that "wanted" player to make a tunnel using terrain manipulator? it never was about distance, but volume of dirt deleted (which is why flatten mode was always a lot faster for pure milestone completion)
Okay gotcha
I already use flatten mode for strip mining.

Any rewards in the redux that weren't in the original run?
Like from previous expeditions
No expedition 
It's there for me
try to restart game/steam/console
-# i'd even restart the modem 
did the new redux start just today?

Cool, I might do this one again to farm the elixirs that can transferred over.
Im gonna do this one again just for the atmosphere of it
Defiantly the best exposition I’ve done ever (behind Omega, for obvious reasons)
personally, it's right up there with exp7 and exp4
Which one was 7…
leviathan
Oh right
Hopefully this time I won't get an ocean start. 😂
--break the loop --kzzt--
Wait I thought 4 was leviatjan
is live?
Now I’m confused
4 was emergence, all hail shai hulud
exp16 redux is live yep
thanks legend!
Don’t forget liquidators had the worms all over too
Or was that adrift?
AHHHH I can’t remember anything
i missed the one with the cool autophage helmets TWICE now 😦
Right
What do you usually store at the anomaly for the exp? I’ve just been going in without bringing anything over.
exp10 hasn't rerun this year, but it's quite likely that we'll see a rererun of it in the future me thinks
Singularity didn’t run this redux
booo
Quite a few years if the current pattern is any indication
And it won’t even have the same rewards most likely
check this pinned post <#nms-expedition message>
Thank you!
i'd add a stack of tainted metal, atlantideum
1-2k is enough
(there's a milestone to gather both, bringing tainted metal will let you skip the derelict freighter mission)
Thanks! I’m going to try it out this time.
is that the only way to get those helmets or can i use mods or something? (i dont know the rules)
I’ll let someone else explain but the best explaining is probably done in #nms-modding
ty for the lead!
(I play on switch so don’t even have the option to mod)
Yeah prob s bug. Just mobile app things.
What is the best expedition?

Shared by: @hollow shore 
Finally back on the cursed nice
I'ma start checking for worlds part 2 info come Feburary
The boundary herald awesome i kinda prefer it pre patch when it was more finiky to use as a big ship should be
To harvest crystals i need some glove? Idk how to get it
Phase 2 reward.

Check tasks in in game expedition tab to see what task give wich reward.
That depends. Personally I've enjoyed Aquarius best
Cursed expidition today ya?
Never played expedition before but this one is not really enjoyable, cant see anything majority of the time
So Cursed actually started now?
Yea
anomalous/haunted fish, noyama-kaus I system
infested / endless hunger, noyama-kaus I system
ancient bones and storm crystals, Ahagil III system
Now where is morite and pugneum xD
From extreme storm to extreme weather smh just let me play without getting drained under 5 sec
bought faecium, refined it to mordite
pugneum can be bought as well
or ofc dropped from killed sentinels
Do we all follow same portal coord for the expedition?
we don't need to input portal coords to progress in fact
portal used might be different as well
From npcs at station? Cant find it in the regular trade
yep, try npc pilots
but killing a sentinel for some pugneum shouldnt be a problem at all
same system, exotic creature planet
Is that the starter system, if not how many portals to that system? Also, what are you using for your PC stats in that screenshot? I'd like to add that as the one I tried to use wasn't as nice looking as that one and another covered up parts of the game I didn't want covered.

as you can see now, noyama-kaus is the system you get to after completing breach 2 milestone
I wonder why the 'news ticker' channel is still showing Aquarius as being active
news-ticker is just a log of releases, official posts - no official post for the cursed redux yet i think
Thank you, what are you using for your PC stats in your screenshot? If there's a better place to ask let me know and I can delete this post.
It's fine, I will still keep an eye on it - there may someday be a note about 'worlds 2' or something
genetic glitch, Noyama-Kaus I and Oglegk III systems
how do i know planet has infestation for the 4 tendrils
@unkempt roost ^ there's one in the Noyama-Kaus I system (the system you get to by completing breach 2 milestone), look for Xeno Colony planet
dissonant planet in Oglegk III system (system we get to by completing breach 3 milestone), harmonic camp and sentinel ship site coordinates
People really build bases at burried bones so you cant get them
Just report the base and it'll be gone from your game
How?
took me 7 systems to find freaking storm crystals: at least, phase 2 and 3 completed one shot lol
The quickmenu (x on PC)
Don't remember exactly the steps to do it, but you should be able to find it. Think it might've been on the rightmost side
Had them in my first but couldnt harvest lol
I was playing in the previous expedition and I I was little too busy to boot up my game before the expedition ended and I’m in game now back in my normal save but all my resources and tech I took are gone am I able to get all those stacks and tech back
damn i completely forgot to grab tainted metal 🫠😭
big rip lol
derelict freighter in Noyama-Kaus I system is pretty easy only drones and a few motion sensors
tainted metal? yes
the anomalous fishing does it require any special bait?
@long bone alternatively, you could find a camp (i posted coords for one here #nms-expedition message ), then a sentinel ship, scrap it, and get money to buy an emergency signal scanner from the scrap dealer
indeed @remote thunder
im just really not a fan of derelict freighters lol
this + standard set (except for hyperdrive fuel, right?), what else do I need?
i don't think so at this point - nothing in the expedition terminus right?
(right), i'd probably bring hypno eyes as well (4; iirc those do count when looted from exp terminus), some gold and silver maybe
also in !faq-expedition/finishing an expedition
Thank you
So we finally are in the last expedition!
Have fun with this one, everyone! Heavy on the lore, should be good 🙂
these are the underwater abomination staring thingy eyes?
yeah, but there's other sources too, e.g. derelict freighter crates, mission boards, outlaw station contraband agents, sus packets goods
I just finished the depths something quest, got a dozen for sure
dreams of the deep? nice

Does the cursed expedition have community tiers? Never done this one so I’m curious
By tiers I mean like in liquidators it had a community optional goal in each phase. Does cursed have something like that?
nope, it doesn't
nope, it's like Aquarius, no community effort optionals afaik
all good 🙂
hey dudes do horrors spawn anywhere on the planet?
well that was quite a fun expedition 
Yes but not under ground if you dig down
cool
ty
because Im wandering for some time now, and I didn't get any. Only on starting point 😄
ah there we go
it depends on anomaly suppressor current charge
if 75% or so or lower, they start spawning
increasingly more often till 50% charge
by that point they'll become aggressive
@remote thunder are those elixirs used for anything interesting outside of this expedition? beside novelty i guess
elixir of quicksilver (finds portal) and elixir of water (spawns boundary guardian, if you ever wanted to, i guess - wont have exp reward attached or anything)
any drops from the guardian actually? cosmetic for example like the Brood Queen
Never found anyone selling it, only found one planetary creature (a rare cave dweller) walking around. Resorted to lakes for lots of fish to get it from.
nice, happy to know you found another way!
If anybody wants to co-op with me, here’s my friend code: YG46-6Y4P-V6VB0
Gotta get some pugneum, which means killing Sentinels
bk201 Looks like you found most of the milestones in the same system for the phase. That sound right so far? Looks like the only one you got early was the exotic in phase 3 for phase 4. That's nice, the last expedition it seemed like some were out of order where you'd get early milestones at later systems.
Oh and for that harmonic camp, is that second image of you above in the clouds at that camp location?
yeah, just aiming at the sky while standing at the camp
yeah, so far so good
Makes it much easier to explain, last one seemed you had to skip some until later unless you found planets near the normal expedition route. This one is much more straightforward. Seemed like past ones at least this year were similar where phases were in the rendezvous systems, at least that I recalled.
yeah, some expeditions scramble a bit more
Probably for the better given it's a portal between systems rather than a ship jump.
this one is fairly smooth, not much backtracking if one keeps their eye open
yep yep
sorry for the late reply; nope
no worries, got my answer online, ty
This was actually an excuse. I was just lonely… I guess the Public and Experimental branches aren’t compatible for multiplayer.
Experimental branch is actually more stable, btw.
Plus I heard it has the lag when you go off planet fixed. Can't wait for that to be in main.
that's correct
not always more stable though
(i've been on experimental pretty much all the time since i started playing on pc)
In this particular case, it’s more stable.
There’s a mod for that actually. Check the Nexus.
Get the V5 version though
The original hasn’t been updated in years
once it gets to steam public, it wont be long before it hits other platforms
that said -- a lot of it is about modding directly, but file loading improvements will probably be felt across the board
This is definitely the creepiest expedition so far
can u stillgo in an expidition save already completed?
For past expeditions? You may go into the save, but it'll update and become a "normal" mode save, and you can't play the expedition if it's not an expedition that's still currently live.
ty
How is the new expedition, is it hard or easy? And how are the rewards
Did I miss the specific portal glyph set I should be using in the first portal?
no; portal travel here happens automatically, you just need to have the right kind of blood on your inventory.
oh nm figured it out

Woooo cursed expedition redux
depending on your spawn point -- it may be a little difficult getting the needed mats to fix your ship's launch thruster+pulse engine - but remember to look at your inventories, the devs may have left you a few things that may help.
i'd say just hop in. this one's quite unique.
remember that we're not forced to complete all milestones in order -- there may be milestones from phases ahead that can be completed on the starter planet
