nms-expedition

[austere flicker]

i have added tons of stuff to mine I dont know why it wont say its built

[fossil token]

You gotta sell the stuff

[thorny yew]

oh

[weak gazelle]

loot is not the objective, explore is. Mine marked as complete when I found all the logs

[thorny yew]

im screwed i deleted it for more room

[lofty compass]

I should customize my corvette ship more so it doesn’t look like a flying line

[fossil token]

Or idk did you do the final engineering room thing

[thorny yew]

i dont think so

[weak gazelle]

Oh and salvaging the reactor

[gentle ibex]

Haha crap its been a while since i played so im lost on the first exp mission. I have to craft the uplink thing, but to do that i need chrometal, to make that i need a refiner and to make that i need a base, and to make the base i need chrometal. Whuh?

[fossil token]

Yeah you should probably take another look around @thorny yew

[thorny yew]

alr

[languid horizon]

Portable refinery doesn't need a base

[fossil token]

Portable refiner is with you already

[lofty compass]

You don’t need a base for a portable refiner.

Also refine copper for chromatic metal

[languid horizon]

It takes like a metal plate

[proper flume]

Your corvette IS the refinery.

No inventory slot taken up.

[fossil token]

[gentle ibex]

I dont have a portable refinery on me though?

[fossil token]

I had one…is it in the crashed ship?

Or did I just make one and not notice

[proper flume]

Corvette can basically be a base aside trading from a terminal, scanning like a freighter, and maybe some other function I don’t know.

I just know it can cook, refine, be a mobile garden, and thats about it.

[lilac dagger]

The moment has finally come

[gentle ibex]

Not from what i can see. Also, i completely lost my ship's hud marker because of how far i had to go to find a node without a base on it

[weak gazelle]

Teleport is no

[lilac dagger]

[proper flume]

Well, yeah, it cant have a portal either lol.

[granite ibex]

In the expedition, I'm having trouble landing my corvette---most of the time I get the message "Landing area not clear," across several types of terrain, and even when the terrain looks flat and clear. Any suggestions?

[old ridge]

anyone found sentinel pillars please ?

[proper flume]

Don’t bother landing.

Uses fuel.

[eager sluice]

Think I’m soft lock, I built a ship but it still says I should assemble a star ship

[proper flume]

X to just leave the seat, park generally near the ground, teleport.

[wheat kiln]

Look for clear terrain

[proper flume]

Beam down and there you go. It floats.

[gentle ibex]

Uh, i think yer talking to the wrong person

[proper flume]

Probably. Discord moves my reply to another person responds for some reason.

[granite ibex]

Thank you!

[eager sluice]

Huh?

[low horizon]

any tips on what to bring along for this expedition? or wing it with whatever thy provide?

[torn blaze]

So I'm having an issue with the expedition after my first jump and getting to the first checkpoint Im not able to modify my ship I get all the parts in red even if I just uninstall one of the pieces and try to reattach it to the ship

[eager sluice]

Anything that gives you money I guess

[proper flume]

Copper, chromatic, fuel, warp cores, and frost wart. Shortest grow time, money, and maybe some nanite stuff if you feel inclined.

Silver, gold and platinum are a good thing too.

[thorny yew]

bruh its still asking for this even though ive interacted with it

[ivory wolf]

Wait can I reset/restart the expedition

Because I couldnt find the tips message and only brought half the stuff

[proper flume]

Maybe? I never hop back in after hopping out.

Try at the console on the anomaly.

[ivory wolf]

Welp

Near complete fresh start on the resources intake then

[thin hatch]

Wew, it was a good idea to decline most of the storage augments from the rewards

You can transfer them all to your primary save if you dont accept them

[ivory wolf]

Oo

[proper flume]

All I know is for some reason.

I kept getting yeeted out of station while editing.

I never landed otherwise save for stations lol.

[hoary shadow]

okay something is really bugged with the plants cause i did the expedition in 2 hours with only one living wall using frostwart, so they grew over twice as fast or something

[balmy relic]

still in that guys ship btw

[thin hatch]

Frostwart on living walls grows in 10 minutes

Its bugged

[ivory wolf]

You're now part of their ship

[hoary shadow]

let me speedrun at least

[balmy relic]

part of the ship, part of the crew

[proper flume]

Figures.

That didn't feel like an hour lol.

[hoary shadow]

also isnt it weird that the deadeye cannon is an upgrade for the shotgun weapon? seems totally backwards lol

[thin hatch]

"ride in other people's corvettes" they said

"itll be easy" they said

[slow swift]

seriously cant just have a infra knife upgrade

[proper flume]

Positron upgrade?

[hoary shadow]

yeah its pretty weird isnt it

[proper flume]

It already stupid powerful.

[slow swift]

nah that is buffed by the rocket launcher i believe

[slow swift]

womp womp i want MORE

[proper flume]

Thats the cyclotron for some reason.

[hoary shadow]

no the rocket launcher buffs the cyclotron

[slow swift]

JUSTICE FOR THE INFRA KNIFE

[proper flume]

All I know is I never landed in this expedition save for like once because I remembered I never need to land.

[hoary shadow]

i think its cause the rocket tubes only get one upgrade and no modules

[slow swift]

GIVE US MORE POWER

[hoary shadow]

let us melt capitals in literal seconds (for sillys)

[proper flume]

It doesn't need anymore power.

Its literally already a meta weapon per se.

[slow swift]

sentinels can tank more than one hit from it or survive more than one second

unacceptable

[proper flume]

Deadeye cannon being a positron upgrade seems a little weird, but I'll take it.

[hoary shadow]

infra knife is funny cause its supposed to be an anti-hull weapon but its so OP it's just an anti everything weapon with a little more damage to hull

like i think it was always supposed to be that you use cyclotron on shield and infra on hull

but infra is so powerful that it doesnt matter

[old ridge]

Anyone found sentinel pillars please ? I can'"t find them since 6 hours

[slow swift]

i wish combat was harder make us have harder enemies

[proper flume]

I still stare at the fact there wasn't any new corvette parts aside a cannon. Like sentinel corvette parts be neat.

[slow swift]

kill the sentinels until you beat tier 5

then go to the signal

[old ridge]

i'm literally doing this since 6 hours

[proper flume]

Thats an option already to make it harder on yourself lol.

[hoary shadow]

kill sentinels or dig up salvage for a boundry map, i got a boundry map from a salvage container

[old ridge]

I beat tier 5 many many times and nothing

[proper flume]

Do the warp jump milestone, theres a base on the lush Viridescent planet next to one.

[hoary rampart]

NGL they should have started us off with personal refiners because I cannot find a single spot to place down this portable refiner, kinda annoying

[slow swift]

true but the infra knife would still melt them

[lofty compass]

My expedition corvette ship is starting to come together

[old ridge]

which system ? I'm very far

[proper flume]

The 2nd one.

The lush planet if thats where it is, has someone with a safe box of stone where the console is.

[old ridge]

ah well it's way too far from me i'm on the last one

[ivory wolf]

Infra knives with like 4 supercharge slots adjacent is like shooting suns in this game lol

[gentle ibex]

Is there a way to restart an expedition? I started it with my main save but it only gives me the option to resume

[proper flume]

Don't think so?

Not unless its a new save.

[ivory wolf]

You cant

So rip

[gentle ibex]

Well thats terribly annoying. Guess i'll uninstall and wait for the next one

[solemn pebble]

what lmao

[ivory wolf]

Lmao relatable feeling

Almost me

[proper flume]

I don't want to restart lol. Ever.

[ivory wolf]

Nah I'm chill with the slow start that I messed up

[proper flume]

That slow start is what keeps me from being time efficient.

[proper flume]

I got my materials and off I zoomed lol.

[weak star]

I didn’t have enough Sodium to protect me from the Sentenial ships.

[ivory wolf]

Lol

[left dove]

Is the resistance optional milestone a global thing or personal thing?

[gentle ibex]

The expeditions are what i play when they come out and i softlocked myself out of this one

[old ridge]

any reason why at the end of the wave 4 of sentinels, nothing happens ?

[proper flume]

I just couldn't predict myself needing dioxite.

[manic forge]

I just finished the expedition! How do I equip the starship trail?

[weak star]

So I’m waiting a bit to play again since taking down those three ships will be a hassle

[thin hatch]

is it possible to transfer quicksilver between saves?

[proper flume]

I had frostwart, but not the dioxite.

[ivory wolf]

Gotta figure out how to get frostwart in the expedition

[austere mountain]

well.. i have a huge problem... i don't know how i did this but... i skydived from low orbit and now it won't let me summon my ship on planet for the expidition..

[proper flume]

Still fun to know I never have to land again, aside if I want it to look pretty landed on a base.

[proper flume]

Snow planets. My favorite.

Plenty on the path to the end tbh.

Whats the % anyway on the community objective?

[left dove]

37

[proper flume]

Not as far as I thought, but that works.

[left dove]

I have a question regarding that: can I go back to my main save and claim this later or have to stay on expedition save until it clears?

[proper flume]

I think you can swap in and out?

Maybe. I haven't tried.

[hoary rampart]

Ah cool the bolt caster in your omnitool can be scrapped for 50 chromatic metal if you're not able to build due to the amount of bases around

[left dove]

Tbh I dont really care that much about the quicksilver, just was wondering if it could be done

[proper flume]

Are people making bases to grief the ore sites?

I've seen some mining bases that let people take, but no idea on if the intent is there.

[ivory wolf]

Cant you go down

And mine upwards or smth

Am I missing some context lol

[hoary rampart]

No just couldn't build a refiner lel

[ivory wolf]

Lol

[proper flume]

Someone posted earlier a base that was just a wall and platform with computer near a copper placement.

Understandably annoyed they couldn't get the copper due to the base near it.

[weak gazelle]

I’m just going around saying hello to people now

[ivory wolf]

Cant they mine the copper bottom up

But fair

[proper flume]

Maybe? I think its just weird to land a corvette when its not at a base or station when it can literally float anyway.

[formal cape]

When does the expedition end?

[proper flume]

6 weeks from...today?

[frozen laurel]

I tried to bring my nutrient ingestor, it's a blank tech space in the terminal at the anomaly now. Strange.

[formal cape]

Ty

[proper flume]

Huh.

[frozen laurel]

Yeah, seems it's not allowed. (or is a bug)

[formal cape]

Wdym

[frozen laurel]

It's also a blank space back on my primary save too. I wonder if it'll show up when I finish the expedition or if I'll have to make a new one to install.

[wispy badge]

How do you complete the optional quest in phase 5? I no longer have any starmap icons to point me to rendezvous stations

[proper flume]

Community thing.

[wispy badge]

Oh, that's not my own progress, that's just everyone?

[proper flume]

Yep. Every expedition has like a few community or one community one.

Now you just wait for it to finish, leave expedition for now and come back when its done.

[wispy badge]

Thanks.

my first expedition.

[balmy relic]

I'M FREEEEEEE

[lone grail]

Nice, new player? Or just first time on an expedition?

[lone grail]

Woooo freedom

[ivory wolf]

Fugly vulnerable first corvette lol

[proper flume]

You make due with the flying box.

[stable whale]

How do I get access to the anomaly in this expedition?

[proper flume]

Until its not a bus anymore.

[proper flume]

Warp jump once. Its open after.

[ivory wolf]

I put the reactor next to the box on the other landing gear

[tepid grove]

Is there a command to show the progress on the one milestone

[ivory wolf]

Its just a flying nuke box lmao

[weak gazelle]

Pin, view in log or normally

[tepid grove]

not at my xbox atm

[hoary shadow]

why does my jetpack with vigilant trail make a SQUISHING noise?! is that supposed the happen? doesnt seem right

[weak gazelle]

38

[weak gazelle]

I noticed too, thought it was a bug

[hoary shadow]

seems like it is

[round wasp]

Anyone down to help me get the hitchhiker milestone?

[ivory wolf]

Wait how do you engage the autopilot on a corvette

[tepid grove]

Same menu you use to go to the galaxy map

[stable whale]

I beg to differ...

Oh wait nvm

Lol

[ivory wolf]

Ohhh

[proper flume]

I know what I do. First objective once free after that jump. Get all my materials I waited on.

[ivory wolf]

Cool

[proper flume]

I gave myself a full stack of fungal mould though thinking I'd need it.

Turns out I don't.

[ornate isle]

the items i took to the expedition vaished?

[proper flume]

Are you in the anomaly or did you put them into the anomaly box?

[ornate isle]

i put them in the box, went to the expedition, didn't have em there, went back to main save and I can't find them

[proper flume]

That would be a moment for this.

[ivory wolf]

Guess I now gotta wait to get the anomaly access

[proper flume]

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

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

[ornate isle]

I was supposed to spawn with the items in the expedition right?

[proper flume]

Anomaly still should have it in that console.

[grave silo]

Doing expo and someone made a base near copper so u cant mine it xD

[proper flume]

Another victim of this.

[grave silo]

Along with hiding there base computer so u cant kill it either

[ivory wolf]

I got an uninhabited deposit from where I spawned

And mined 700

[proper flume]

That would be a base report if its a grief intentionally.

If not, I dunno.

You don't need a base this expedition unless you want one, or you're making a communal one.

Like the silver mine I saw. 10k Silver lol.

[grave silo]

Ots a half built base with nothing but dirt in it

[proper flume]

Might be a case of report via the hg command then and find the players name.

It should show on someones base, correct?

[grave silo]

On console so idk

[proper flume]

Hover over the base computer and see if it shows the players name.

[grave silo]

That's the bad part cant find it looks like its hidden

[proper flume]

Not even just by having your cursor or general glance at it?

[grave silo]

Nope didnt see one around it

[proper flume]

What I mean is, when you're about to jump to a base with pulse engine, it shows the base name. I can't recall, if it also shows the person who made it by name.

Like pointing the reticle directly on it.

If not, welp.

[vital vine]

ooooooo i can not wait to start

[dire portal]

How many nanites is it to create a copy of corvette from my normal save????

[proper flume]

No idea. Don't think you can.

Space jalopy is your fren.

[ivory wolf]

Space jalopy?

[dire portal]

I call BS, cmon. It let me copy my multitool for 1500

[proper flume]

Its what I call my ship given its bare minimum and looks semi made lol.

Just engines, cockpit, general facilities, and that is all.

[dire portal]

Has anybody made a copy of their normal ship in the corvette expedition???

[proper flume]

I can check the console on the anomaly if I hop on or someone here can check this.

[karmic plover]

You cant

[karmic plover]

You cant

[dire portal]

Just need to know how many nanites it takes to do it

[solemn pebble]

you cant

[karmic plover]

You cant

[proper flume]

Figured. Its not too torturous to have the corvette you get.

[solemn pebble]

infinite nanites

[karmic plover]

[dire portal]

LAME

[solemn pebble]

its not lame, its understandable

[karmic plover]

It aint lame bruh

[proper flume]

If I was able to do that, I'd have no issues traveling.

[solemn pebble]

just make a copy

[neat badge]

just build a new one, its part of the fun

[karmic plover]

^

[proper flume]

I can jump 2500 light years in one of mine.

I could just entirely LEAP the systems missing some stuff.

[karmic plover]

You can always just transfer the expedition ship back to the main save

[lyric rampart]

Stuck on a planet corvette wont land for reason

[proper flume]

Don't need to.

[solemn pebble]

yeah you can make your dream ship in the expedition cuz you get a lot of free shit

[neat badge]

dont have time to open up the game right now, what kind of rewards do you get?

[oak breach]

Lmao had someone board my corvette before the warp step and I took them with me for the space battle

[karmic plover]

Beam down

[solemn pebble]

look it up

[proper flume]

D-pad if console or whatever button. X if PC, leave chair, float close to the ground. You can beam.

[karmic plover]

Or you cant summon is what you mean?

Use the space station teleporter if you cant summon

[karmic plover]

Pinned

[carmine oak]

Expedition complete yay time to wait for the community thing to complete

[proper flume]

If you mean you can't summon your ship, 30 chromatic metal to beam you to the station.

[solemn pebble]

almost done with expedition 07

[lyric rampart]

It was bugged out had to reload

[ivory wolf]

I forgot and landed it lol

[proper flume]

I did once, realized I didn't need to and just never landed after like...once.

Just. "Oh. Right. This thing hovers."

Get close to surface, beam, evacuate inclement weather environment lol.

[sullen crystal]

bruh...

[stable whale]

How do you join your friends in an expedition?

[proper flume]

Be in the same game mode, be added mutually.

Make sure neither of you has mutiplayer disabled.

[proper flume]

Did you land and it do this?

Or did it spawn this way? Thats a weird spawn if so.

[sullen crystal]

yes, door is blocked by terrain and I can't remove it

[proper flume]

...I'd reload or beam yourself to the station. Try to reload first, and try not to land I guess lol.

At least on planets lol.

[sullen crystal]

i think there's a player base nearby, i'll check if it has a portal

[proper flume]

God I hope so for your sake lol. You'd need to find flat terrain or make it flat.

[rapid pagoda]

Hey all - First expedition and stumped after wandering around for a few hours. Apparently I need chromatic metal to be refined... I have the copper... but where on earth am I supposed to refine anything? Frustrated and feeling like this whole thing is going to be impossible since they don''t explain anything

[calm yoke]

no worries, just find some copper first

[rapid pagoda]

I found a bunch already

[proper flume]

You have to make the portable refiner or your corvette once you have it, it can have a refiner so you don't have to carry one around less you want to.

Make portable refiner, power with carbon, shove in copper.

[median junco]

you can craft a portable refiner

[calm yoke]

are you using a controller or mouse/keys?

[sage sentinel]

Yall know what to do for the hitchhiking task? Other corvettes seem to be invisible for me at the anomaly

[proper flume]

This might be phone a friend or LFG.

[rapid pagoda]

yea keyboard and mouse because they broke VR with teh latest patch

[proper flume]

Z for build menu or general items when not near a base.

[calm yoke]

press z on keyboard

[median junco]

hopping in a ship at a rendezvous station worked pretty well also

[proper flume]

Portable refiner should be cheap. Like 30 something.

[flint saddle]

Ugh the stations are bugging out bad not letting me dock

[rapid pagoda]

Where would I buy it? There is no option to craft it

[proper flume]

I've had to spacewalk yeet myself into it.

[rapid pagoda]

I got the copper but??

[proper flume]

You don't buy the portable refiner, you craft it.

[median junco]

in the build menu

[proper flume]

I think it was oxygen/carbon?

First page?

[oak breach]

I can’t land at the space station either. What the heck lol

[proper flume]

Spacewalk and yeet yourself full jetpack into it.

I had to do this a few times because it was full.

[oak breach]

Good idea

[normal remnant]

Or you could just turn off multiplayer

[proper flume]

This is also an option.

I used someones base to find and easily do a pillar though.

[austere mountain]

so i think my corvette glitched... it's not allowing me to summon it... says can not land here... even though i am in an open space

[oak breach]

Nah I like seeing everyone

[normal remnant]

If I can't get into a station I turn off multiplayer, then turn it back on once I'm inside the station

[proper flume]

I have had numerous glitches occur to me in this.

[austere mountain]

never mind fixed it

[proper flume]

Working on Corvette, I got yeeted out of it entirely. Sometimes my ship just vanished entirely in the building menu.

Just fully yeeted out of the station.

Its a very, very buggy experience.

[proper flume]

I just learned to park outside, full send myself into it and yeet lol.

[normal remnant]

4/10 too much walking water

[limber relic]

I'm trying to get the hitchhiking milestone but people's ships are completely invisible lol. Anyone have a workaround for this?

[proper flume]

I yeet myself willingly. Too bad I don't have my upgraded jetpack.

Otherwise I'd make it a sport to try and reach the vendor hub from the entrance.

[normal remnant]

I don't know if that's possible lmao

[proper flume]

Not with the jetpack upgrade you get. You get about halfway.

[empty lantern]

Can anybody help me with the expedition? I need to ride in somebody’s Corvette for 10,000 u

[tacit silo]

who else cant repair the corvette hyperdrive? I already did the chromatic metal part, I have the 3 microprocessors, and hitting repair brings up an empty screen

[proper flume]

I'd reload.

[dawn pelican]

so, every copper node i've found someone has put a base computer next to so i can't mine it

[proper flume]

Thats the third victim.

[ivory wolf]

Third

[proper flume]

Less I missed one and its 4.

[ivory wolf]

I found one that didnt have griefers

[sage sentinel]

If yalls ship came with a rocket launcher you can salvage that for copper

[dawn pelican]

is it only happening to some of us?

[ivory wolf]

Do we all spawn on the same planet

[proper flume]

Unfortunately.

[ivory wolf]

Welp I got lucky ig

Nearest didnt have comps

[proper flume]

Alrighty. I might need to jump there and establish a mining station for copper.

[round wasp]

I can help need this milestone as well.

[proper flume]

General community task, build copper mines there in an attempt to get rid of griefing bases.

[ivory wolf]

Is there no nodes to just extract chromatic metals on that planet

[livid sand]

How long until Console players can expect the new update to let us into the Expedition?

[proper flume]

Some people spawn near a base as bad luck and can't get metal. Some scrapped their gun to get the metal.

[ivory wolf]

No I meant like the industrial miner for the community

[proper flume]

I'd assume.

[ivory wolf]

Cant you unlock that in the expedition/find a copper node or smth

[proper flume]

You can unlock it from the anomaly.

[ivory wolf]

Just plop one down and everyone gets chromatic to start hopefully

[proper flume]

You'd just need to do some nanite work to get the drill, power and infrastructure.

[balmy relic]

if I lose the egg for the companion... how do I get it back?

[ivory wolf]

Yee

[steady kestrel]

pro tip: dont use the storage augmentions on the expedition, bring them back to your main save

[proper flume]

I might get back on and get that done.

I have the mould and excess materials.

Need to find the first planet though and a suitable spot.

[steady kestrel]

just scan all the life on a planet to get the bonus nanites, it's usually between 1 and 2 thousand

[proper flume]

I'm on the anomaly anyway in game, so lemme find the first planet.

I'll make it a base name to "Build more copper mines." At that planet.

[light relic]

Hi all, how do I put my personal refiner mk 2 in the expeition equipment transfer slot please?

[sterile charm]

did you get anyone to help you?

[proper flume]

You don't need to bring it, but it would be in the anomaly for you after the first warp jump.

The corvette has a refiner option and a portable one for your inventory.

[light relic]

Yes, but I cant work out how to put it IN the anomaly 🙂

[proper flume]

Don't think you can?

Maybe?

[light relic]

A youtube recomended it but didnt show how

Just trying to prep first

Are there any decent walktrhough youtubes yet?

[frozen laurel]

Has to be done before you start the expedition. Uninstall it from your backpack X on PC (don't dismantle it). Then in the expedition terminal click tech and find it in your inventory

[light relic]

Yep, havent started. When i right click it there is no uninstall...

[vague scarab]

Hey - when you finish the expedition does the corvette you made transfer over? Or do I need to break it down to keep the parts I wanna keep?

[round wasp]

Offered no response though, need this milestone as well if your down

[frozen laurel]

The same button as you use to uninstall anything else will work.

[frozen laurel]

Yes. Press X.

[light relic]

omg thanks.. never trusting UI again

[proper flume]

Whats the first system you're in by name?

[frozen laurel]

It's hidden. For whatever reason.

[proper flume]

Need coordinates if I'm gonna grind salvage data to get the mining base up and running.

[frozen laurel]

It's in the pins.

[proper flume]

Got it. One community copper mine coming up.

[zinc stratus]

I can't figure out how to land on freighters (still haven't found a derlict frieghter for milestone) but anytime I land my character bugs out and is just floating in space and I can't enter the freighter and i got no idea what to do

[dawn pelican]

how do you scrap your missiles?

[quiet palm]

all these bases around the copper deposits are quite annoying, i must admit
can't even get started because i can't find a source of copper i can mine

[marsh wadi]

spent like 10 minutes running around trying to place a portable refinery :)

[sterile charm]

sure! not sure how to invite to my crew tho. ill also need it lol

[quiet palm]

i have the refinery i just can't get the copper to make into chromatic

[frozen laurel]

Report the base from your quick action menu. Then you can mine.

[quiet palm]

really?

i'll do that

[marsh wadi]

crazy that this has to be the solution tbh

[small compass]

Anyone having issues getting into space stations? I keep not being able to fly in

[reef kelp]

(not my ship) I love this game, man

[round wasp]

Definitely be down to help you get it as well. If you have steam i can add you so we can find each other

[buoyant bolt]

How do we complete the optional Resistance milestone in Phase 5?

[reef kelp]

that's a community one. so just need to wait for progress to finish. it will do so gradually as people play

[normal tartan]

Anyone else unable to claim the sentinel ships in expedition?

[buoyant bolt]

Gotcha, thanks

[normal tartan]

No? Just me?

[reef kelp]

we can't claim regular starships in this expedition. it's part of the gimmick. corvette only

[normal tartan]

So not even sentinel ships?

I feel like that defeats the purpose of doing the missions for it then...

[gloomy moss]

Does anyone else try skydiving onto random people's ships

[bleak ledge]

Yeah that's kind of the point of the expedition about building corvettes

[normal tartan]

What about the beaming not working?

[proper flume]

What planet did we start on?

I'm in the system, but not off the top my head do I remember.

[reef kelp]

the desert one i think

[buoyant bolt]

This is my first expedition, can anyone fill me in on what can and can't be transferred over to my original save post expedition?

[versed oriole]

I got a dumb question: emergency warp. Last thing to do to finish off expedition.

I make sentinels angry then R1+L1 but nothing.

Yup I have the emergency thingy installed too. Lol

I think im doing something wrong..

[main plank]

You can’t do it while in combat I think

Only if they are searching for you

[versed oriole]

so basically fly around civil system and hope for sentinel investigate me?

[main plank]

Is it stuck?? Like it won’t go away?

If that’s the case, I’d kill another one and just hide

[versed oriole]

No just unsure of requirements to engage the "emergency warp"

So do i need to be hauling black market stuff in a civil system and wait for sentinel to scan me? To enable the emergency warp drive?

[fast knot]

you activate it from the same menu you change your ships view between external/cockpit

[kindred whale]

portable refiner. Costs 1 metal plating and 30 oxygen i think. It's found in the base building menu. On PC, that's the Z key. Idk about console, I don't play on console.

[fast knot]

ahhh, thanks. I was wondering as well

[small compass]

I completed the section that says it gives you seeds to plant so I can grow in my corvette however I dont see them at all in my inventory, do they go somewhere else?

[versed oriole]

You are awesome.

Dont let anyone else tell you different!

Spent a hour harassing sentinels

[ivory wasp]

I didn't get credit for building my corvette D:

[versed oriole]

LOL couldnt figure it out

[ivory wasp]

NM I had to furnish! There's two convergent missions but only one tells you to furnish 😛

[novel sedge]

for the final expedition optional quest, do you need to wait to complete the expedition, or will you be awarded it automatically?

[grim fossil]

Quickest expedition ever

[versed oriole]

Deadeye cannon look dope af

[marsh wadi]

the dissonant planet has activated copper, doesent it have a better ratio to chromatic ?

[dreamy hawk]

How do I do the stardiving one, I'm doing what the game is telling me but it won't progress

[viscid glade]

How does the resistance milestone work exactly? Because I've done the imprint at every rendez vous and it's still at 44. Is it a community thing?

[viscid glade]

60 seconds, it's a long time

[frozen laurel]

One to one. Add pure ferrite and it's one to two.

[thin hatch]

They are blueprints

[dreamy hawk]

I get like .14 seconds but past that it won't progress

[viscid glade]

Weird

[thin hatch]

Someone else said you need to wait

[viscid glade]

That's bull

[thin hatch]

Which sucks as I transfered all my good tech

[viscid glade]

Ahhhhh

[thin hatch]

I didnt expect the expedition to be 3 hours long

Lmao

[novel sedge]

yeah looks like you need to wait

it's already at like 43% i'm sure it'll hit 100% by tomorrow

[viscid glade]

At least we get a lot of free corvette stuff with the expedition, but since most people used creative to make theirs, ehhh.. it's a pretty lackluster one. Only the deadeye cannon is interesting honestly

[proper flume]

Alrighty. Just need 8 salvage data, annnd we have everything but plates to get a community mine going.

[light relic]

How do I copy my multitool so I can take it on exp pls?

[proper flume]

Game just crashed though. 8 Salvage, a nice spot, and a whole base lol.

[thin hatch]

"Deadeye" cannon
Is a shotgun upgrade

[dreamy hawk]

I only get progress when I jump from my corvette but past that I don't get anything

[novel sedge]

costs like 1500 nanites at the nexus

at the expedition terminal

[thin hatch]

Don't bother

[viscid glade]

Every shotgun is deadeye when you think about it

[thin hatch]

In the hour or two it takes you to make the nanitea

[light relic]

why?

[novel sedge]

it doesn't take that long to make the nanites

[thin hatch]

You could've just finished the expid

[light relic]

I ahve 25K nanites...

[novel sedge]

just sell the modules that you're given

[viscid glade]

Unpin the milestone the. Do it

[thin hatch]

Ah

Well its an extremely short expid

[light relic]

oh so wont really need a good mt?

[novel sedge]

it's probably worth to have a decent weapon vs the sentinels otherwise nbd

[thin hatch]

I dont think you transfer nanites to your expid save

[light relic]

I wont bother then.

[thin hatch]

You would need to make that 1.5k from scratch

[light relic]

Oh i thought I could copy it before the exp starts

[novel sedge]

it's very easy to make it from scratch

[thin hatch]

No

[light relic]

nods

[novel sedge]

just flip some of the s-modules you get from rewards

[thin hatch]

It carries over from your expid, not to

[light relic]

yeah, i am taking some stuffs to refine to nanites also.

thanks

[ashen shore]

Devs need to fix their shit on Xbox Platform I'm on last 2 for phase 5 and it's glitched

[light relic]

should I bother packaging any ship modules?

[thin hatch]

Just take a Sentinel pillar map

[novel sedge]

do yourself a favor and bring a bunch of silver

[thin hatch]

And a launcher autocharger

[novel sedge]

like an 800 stack

[light relic]

sentinal boundary map?

[thin hatch]

• a good warp drive upgrade

[thin hatch]

Yea

[novel sedge]

yeah sentinel boundary although they're easy enough to farm off salvage hunting

[light relic]

define "bunch" is 2K enuf?

[novel sedge]

yea plenty

[grave silo]

Hm the tainted metal i was refined disappeared >-> everyone single one even the nanties that's greatttt

[novel sedge]

for the plants quest you can just make grav balls (120 silver ea) and a few of the corvette things

[karmic plover]

frostwart grows the fastest

[formal palm]

om

my save is stuck in a crash loop 💔💔

[thin hatch]

Frostwart is bugged

[light relic]

like indium etc?

[thin hatch]

It grows in 10m instead of 1h

[thin hatch]

Nah, warp length, efficiency

[urban falcon]

Are people seriously spamming bases to stop people from placing refiners and things on the starting planet or am I missing something?

[thin hatch]

Yup

[light relic]

range?

[thin hatch]

They are

[thin hatch]

Yea

[novel sedge]

i was definitely super confused for the first 20 mins because of that

[light relic]

I got an X 245ly

[urban falcon]

That's frustrating.
Ive been trying for 5 mins just to smelt the chromatic metal

[thin hatch]

I had to look around for like 15m to find a spot i could place my refiner

It sucked

[hallow torrent]

I'm having trouble completing one, zero. Every time I get to wave 4, there's always like 5 sentinels that are 2000-3000 units away for some reason that I can't get to in time before I "escape" and if I find another sentienl and engage with it it resets me to threat level 1. I've gone from wave 1-4 3 times now and it's getting frustrating.

[formal palm]

i wish i could open the game so i can change the edit access of my base, legit cant open my save tho

[thin hatch]

Turn off Multi-player i think

[formal palm]

im pretty sure one zero is the sentinel pillar

[novel sedge]

turning off multi-player helps a lot of things

definitely worth

[hallow torrent]

You can do it that way if you take the time to find one yeah, but you can also just beat all 5 waves.

[formal palm]

mines still laggy ah with it off, was doing stuff in the 2nd check in system and it was so buggy

[reef kelp]

could i ask someone to ferry me around for 4ku? the first 6ku happened accidentally. because station corvette stacking.

[solemn bane]

Yeah they made the shooty sentinels really, really stupid for some reason, lol. Either they fuck off into the wild blue yonder or they get stuck on the ground.

[formal palm]

isnt it just easier to fly around and shoot the tall guys down until you get the map?

[hallow torrent]

Tall guys?

[reef kelp]

i thought they just wanted to taste the minerals. (also sorry for the ping if i forgot to tick it off)

[formal palm]

i dont remember their name, but rhe pillars that mine on dissonant planets

[hallow torrent]

oh, dissonant ones count?

[formal palm]

yeah, its on any planet

[thin hatch]

No

That's for echo locators

Not boundary maps

[hallow torrent]

wait can I just go back to my main save and transfer in a boundary map?

or is it too late?

[thin hatch]

The big guys just give inverted mirrors and echo locators

[formal palm]

i swear ive managed to get a map from them, mightve been the smaller guys around em

[thin hatch]

And the milestone for scanning 3 fauna gives an echoloc

[thin hatch]

Was probably the salvaged glass

But i opened like 80 of those without getting one

Got a stack of exosuit and multitool upgrades each

But no boundary map

[grave silo]

Damn I cant even load back and earlier save to get that metal back

[formal palm]

ye

[zinc stratus]

Which chart helps me find the sential pillar ?

[thin hatch]

Sentinel boundary

Red looking one

[lofty compass]

I have completed phases 1-3 so far

[formal palm]

this was outside of expedition so we had a couple refiners in the back pocket lol

[brave plume]

Hey, on phase 4 of the expedition. Anyone near the Fourth rendezvous station so I could complete the Hitchhiking objective?

[last trail]

so much buuugs i cant even get on space stations some times

[marsh wadi]

if you want to portal to one of the earlier systems i can help

[nimble grotto]

The expedition corrupted my save. I can't load in or else I'll crash. I've turned off multiplayer and it still crashes

[zinc stratus]

where do I find it I've checked every cartographer from all 5 redevous which included a dissenet system and I still can't find one

[last trail]

i give up, will try it in a few weeks maybe they fix some of the issues

[brave plume]

Think I jumped 2 systems at a time, what's the system called and I can jump to it

[analog onyx]

Why must expedition release on the day of silksong…

[wet shard]

So how long it take yall to do the new expedition?

[marsh wadi]

go to OwO III: The Squeakule Platform

thats the second one

[thin hatch]

They arent from cartographers

[marsh wadi]

if you dont have it, im checking the spawn station rn

[thin hatch]

Only from salvaged glass (very rare)

If you have them sitting around

Or rarely in atlas crates

[forest oak]

This happened to me as I was building my corvette in phase 1. There were multiple people building in the station and I got taken away in someone else’s ship!

[zinc stratus]

oof so what's the fastest way to do this that isn't just flying around and hoping then

[brave plume]

Going to OwO III now

[thin hatch]

If you dont have one, just go without it

[forest oak]

Try heading to the original station and go to the build area and wait maybe?

[thin hatch]

And turn off multiplayerb+ clear 5 waves

[zinc stratus]

I've cleared 5 waves twice now and it hasn't counted

which is why i was looking for a pillar

[thin hatch]

You need to clear every single Sentinel on the 5th wave

Not just the big guy

Every red dot

[lofty compass]

I tried clearing 5 waves and the drones keep flying very high in the sky for no reason

[thin hatch]

Even if that red dot is 3ku in the sky

[zinc stratus]

I did

[thin hatch]

Or on the other side of the planet

[marsh wadi]

tbf i actually have no idea how to meet up with someone ingame, i can only assume the stations are instanced considering the amount of people playing rn

[thin hatch]

Go to the rendezvous stations

Teleport between them

You'll find someone

The anomaly bugs tf out when you get on someone else corvette

But stations are fine

[brave plume]

Just landed at the OwO III station, can't see anyone else if you're here

[tacit dock]

it seems PCVR is completely busted interaction-wise, i can't even start the expedition in VR. i can do it fine in PSVR2 on PS5 but that's not a solution

[ivory wasp]

Oh jeez, do corvettes not lock on during dogfighting

[proper flume]

Hold S in combat if PC. It locks on with that last I looked.

[naive garnet]

do I have to collect reward in expedition to continue?

[marsh wadi]

click on the next one, ship architecture

[naive garnet]

when am i supposed to collect the parts then

[stoic crescent]

No, but often the rewards of steps are useful for completing the next ones.

[marsh wadi]

its like a fancier version of the normal "LOG" tab

[naive garnet]

yea i think i gotta claim cuz i dont have millions to buy corvette parts lol

am I able to get the parts back to my main save later?

[tacit dock]

going to wait out this expedition until they fix the VR

it's just busted

[velvet pasture]

how do you get this salvage container when it's stuck under the ground and the terrain manipulator can't dig any further down?

[tacit dock]

it's almost like no one at Hello Games actually did a VR playtest with the expedition at all, especially off an existing save

[arctic plover]

Anyone getting the "no edit permissions" when trying to build your portable refiner right when you start the expidition?

[dawn pelican]

means someone built a base nearby

[broken pike]

You're probably near a base

[arctic plover]

Yeah, but I've been running around for about 10 minutes trying to place one.

[wicked trail]

Sorry to interrupt, but I am in need of help. I am on One, Zero of Phase 5, and I have faught through multiple sets of the 5 waves and then did the things after I was sent to the place, but it's not completing it

[steel wagon]

Thats the neat part . You dont

You move on

[fleet monolith]

Ould anyone help me please i need todo One Zero shut down sentinel forces on phase 5

[wicked trail]

I'm stuck on that one too

[fleet monolith]

How's your multitool modules?

Ive try my best to maje it better and ive install one that I like

If you want we can team up

[wicked trail]

Well, I've done the 5 waves thing multiple times now, the issue I'm having is that it's not completing it

[fleet monolith]

For real

Thats crazy

Am trying to start off with Depot mission thats one way to access the waves

[crystal mortar]

Can we claim a ship from previous Expedition? And if yes, which one has hyperdrive upgrades? I couldn't copy my ship for Nanites like usual.

[steel wagon]

No

[marsh wadi]

psure there is a X hyperdrive upgrade early in the expedition?

[wicked trail]

Hmm?

[split vigil]

if you fly into a station and your corvette doesn't land, but it won't let you get out of the seat, is there anything you can do other than reloading from your last save point?

[fleet monolith]

!myfriendcode

[crystal mortar]

I'm still only 140ly even with that upgrade

[unkempt kraken]

AN4T-MKY8-49K02
(@fleet monolith)

[marsh wadi]

unlucky i guess, mine got +319 and 100% fuel eff

or maybe i just got really lucky

[fleet monolith]

@wicked trail

[crystal mortar]

I only got the warp efficiency boooo

I can buy them in a pirate system, right?

[mental narwhal]

Anyone know of a guide yet or still too early?

[marsh wadi]

psure you can also get normal hyperdrive upgrades at normal stations? if you have the nannites

[crystal mortar]

I guess I'll just do tiny jumps until I find them. Ty .

[marsh wadi]

goodluck 🫡

does anyone know if the plant quest needs different crops or if i can just harvest 8 of the same?

[solid peak]

8 of the same kind works

[simple raptor]

the X-tier ones yes
although its a lot of rng bcs you can get something worse than C-tier or better than S-tier out of it
as opposed to buying an S-tier from a normal station which guarantees something good

[vital vine]

so many god damn based on the 1st planet i ca even mine any copper

[jaunty linden]

posting up with the final iteration of my corvette from the expedition. took nothing in with me, first expedition ive done. was a blast

[simple raptor]

can always disable multiplayer/play offline

[proper flume]

A 4th/5th victim.

I need to get a copper mine thats open to everyone soon there lol.

So many plates.

[light relic]

I have multiplayer disabled but still seeing all the bases

[simple raptor]

not sure then

could always ask someone for copper ig

[formal palm]

thats normal

[crystal mortar]

How do I land in a pirate station?

[light relic]

yeah thought so

[formal palm]

someone needs to set up a free stuff base on starter

[naive garnet]

why doesnt my X menu have anomaly option, how do I access it without it

[marsh wadi]

i saw one with crops that looked either like it bugged out or was griefed idk

[formal palm]

its a pirate system, aka "outlaw"

[formal palm]

ahh yes the all plants x20 one?

[marsh wadi]

psure yea

[formal palm]

when i went thru that one it was fine, some stuff took a lil to load in tho

[proud sparrow]

hm so there's no new corvette parts as was rumored for the rewards? just some decorative stuff and whatever that gun is?

[formal palm]

they wouldnt drop new parts in a expedition when they are busy with bug fixes

[tardy forge]

anyone able to land on a pirate station with their corvette? I can't get in to buy the contraband for smuggling mission

[proud sparrow]

eh? bug fixes doesn't have anything to do with it, they finished the expedition before they even released Voyagers

[zinc stratus]

Ok this milestone is starting to actually piss me off I've done over a dozen wave 5 clears now and still don't have credit and still can't find a chart to show me a pillar

[crystal mortar]

I found one but I can't enter the space station.

PS5

[formal palm]

theres probably two blue circles in front of the station, if so hold the landing button and if should dock

[light relic]

Ok, tl;dr please, any point doing this exp if I already have built a corvette?

[formal palm]

theres a cute companion at the end & at some point 1.2k quicksilver

[light relic]

omg,, care=0 lol

[tardy forge]

nope, there aren't i've seen it for my freighter but the pirate stations don't have these

[light relic]

ok thanks, delting the save now

[marsh wadi]

2 trails and whatever a deadeye cannon is, not sure if thats something "new" to the expedition or is available outside it

[light relic]

argh how teh fuks do i get out of it!! I started it from main save lol

[formal palm]

dont delete the save, you can return to your non expedition part of the save

look in the restore save section

[formal palm]

i cant lie, the twitch drops were way better than this , and this is my first expedition 😭🙏

[light relic]

which is where?!

[proper flume]

A gun turret.

Its for the positron.

[marsh wadi]

can agree, the free auto charger for launch gear from the solar is very nice

[crystal mortar]

I'm not able the dock. Is there another way to buy contraband on a planet?

[tardy forge]

nevermind, managed to dock onto pirate station

I called a freighter in, landed on it, then went back out and redocked at the pirate station

[proper flume]

If you're at a pirate station, space walk into it and fly full jetpack into it.

The game will correct itself.

[formal palm]

pause menu

[proper flume]

Don't think you can get contraband from anywhere but a pirate station.

[marsh wadi]

💯 hopefully i remember this

[formal palm]

nipnips

shooting pirates down

[proper flume]

G E K N I P.

[marsh wadi]

how long does it stake for stuff to grow on a living wall? specifically funal mould...

[formal palm]

nipnip

[proper flume]

G E K N I P.

[light relic]

um am i just imaginign things or does my suit now look like what it was in the exp rather than in my primary save... or would that be the same anyway?

[proper flume]

I call it Geknip.

[formal palm]

when you are building the plants they have a timer, in my experience its been more like 30m for all of them

[formal palm]

same anyway

[marsh wadi]

ty ty

[tardy forge]

Gravitino is the fastest growing plant othere than frost crystals

if you find frost crystals go for that, otherwise Gravitino

[formal palm]

was playing the expedition instead of studying, lol

[formal palm]

ye

[marsh wadi]

does anyone know of any lush planets near spawn ?

[crystal mortar]

omg this worked. Thank you! I thought you were trolling me hehe

[opaque crescent]

2nd rendezvous has one i think

[formal palm]

look for any of these

[formal palm]

theres one a lil before it

[crystal mortar]

This how I want to enter space stations forever now.

[marsh wadi]

i managed to just land on one looking for the dissonant animal scans 😭

[formal palm]

see if you can somehow manage to get the pillar done aswell

[marsh wadi]

can i catch fish without bait ?

[tardy forge]

yes u can

ull get some junk mixed in, but u can eventually

[marsh wadi]

can these even spawn on dissonant worlds ?

[proper flume]

I don't troll unless I know you and want something funny to happen to you.

[lyric rampart]

Do you have to do the optional milestones?

[formal palm]

Afaik yeah

[light plume]

an easier way is to just see if paraffinium is one of the resources ngl

no need to remember these terms

altho then u have to tell ppl paraffinium is a lush biome thing, phosphorus is a hot biome thing, etc

[crystal mortar]

I would have lulzed

[zinc stratus]

There has got to be a better way than just flying around hoping to find a pillar killing sentinels is not counting

[formal palm]

yeah, you can also tell them to look for water

[formal thicket]

Anyone else go through that black hole?

[formal palm]

you need to get a boundary map

[zinc stratus]

I've been to 20+ space stations no one has one

[formal palm]

they cant be got in stations

[marsh wadi]

first 3 were all fish 😎

[simple raptor]

is this the sentinel multitool one?

[formal palm]

😎

[simple raptor]

bcs there is a better way

[formal palm]

no, this is the disable sentinels one

[simple raptor]

oh nvm

[zinc stratus]

ya the disable one is broken af

[formal palm]

i wish i knew about this quest before loading in, wouldve stocked maps 😭🙏

[simple raptor]

id js

find gravitino balls (theres some in the wild on the planet you spawn at)

then ur straight up to tier 3 wanted

and can start nuking them all

[marsh wadi]

i was about to make a comment about the exp giving a blaze javalin but then i realised they didnt include the upgrade that makes it good in the first place (stun 😋)

[marsh wadi]

sounds like ppl are clearing 5 star and not getting the progress

[formal palm]

you still need to deal with the sentinels taking forever to spawn and not dropping anything

[simple raptor]

maybe ive js been lucky with boundary maps in the past then

[zinc stratus]

ya not that issue i've done 15+ wave 5 clears it doesn't work that way

[formal palm]

so have i, boundary maps are for somereason way rarer in the expedition

[marsh wadi]

4 hour timer before phase 2 clears 😔

[marsh wadi]

no fun allowed 💔

[simple raptor]

map from salvage containers then ig?

[formal palm]

this quest is the reason why i hopped off for now lol

[somber blade]

Is the new Expedition?

[simple raptor]

yes

[formal palm]

yes

[marsh wadi]

are you stuck in the expedition until you clear it or it clears? you can you bounce between the expedition and your normal save ?

[somber blade]

Thats cool

[formal palm]

you can bounce between, i just want the companion lol

[marsh wadi]

also does anyone want to co-op some of the dissonant world milestones, looks like you need to farm the mirror guys until you get an echo-locator...

[formal palm]

cant be bothered with ps4 loading times

[marsh wadi]

same

[formal palm]

just fly next to them in first person and shoot them, if you stay as low as possible interceptors dont come for you

[formal palm]

(first person cus your gun shoots differently for some reason)

[solemn bane]

There are ways to do it. On PC (etc) you can edit files to unlock the rewards, or just replay old expeditions. Console is more limited. Your favorite search engine should be able to help. All this seems like more work than it would be worth for some hyperdrive upgrades, though, lol.

[marsh wadi]

hmmm ive seen interceptors spawn super low but i may just throw corpses at it if i cant get away with roaching out the kills and ignoring the sentinels

[formal palm]

may just be random and server lag based

the wanted level has been really buggy for me personally

been stuck on 1 star and need to use cloak to get rid of it

[storm fiber]

is there anyone here who can let me ride on their corvette for the achevment? Of ourse, I will return the favor

[vital vine]

copper for everyone corvetes and corvetes full of copper lol

[next shadow]

how do I shut down a planets sentinel forces?

[proper flume]

I need resources to do it, because I know mine are screaming.

[storm fiber]

A lot of players mark useful locations to other expedition people with commuinication markers or bases. try that

[round wasp]

Hey so if i end the expedition before the resistance milestone is complete can i still get it once its finished or should i just wait to end it?

[vital vine]

fight all the waves and it will lead you to a sentine pillar or you can get lucky and get a map to one

[storm fiber]

at expedition 1 I think there is a com marker at a node, I think

[next shadow]

I shall try to find that

[next shadow]

Yeah I'm just not doing enough damage

[vital vine]

good hunting

[next shadow]

It's the last thing I gotta do ;-;

[storm fiber]

I always gon to stuff like that. you neverf know what you will find

[modest ivy]

expedition tips:

cant even land on space station lol

[hoary shadow]

communal crash site

[light plume]

When I saw that crash site the radiant pillar BC1s made a full ring it was funny to look at

[storm fiber]

I found an A class freighter with a very large gravitino ball crop already built! MIINE NOW!!!

[eternal cairn]

when you leave the starting planet, do we all go to the same system? (heavy aggressives?)

[spare walrus]

How long does The Expedition Go?

[proper flume]

Peace in this expedition is for when you're in your hovering home.

[hoary shadow]

i thoguht the orbital uplink brings you to the station in that same system as planet

[oblique belfry]

guys could someone PLEASE turn on the heater in the space station? I'm kinda cold

[icy solar]

Never been on an expidition despite getting the game YEARS ago. Is there any way i can do past ones?

Another question. What do you typically bring on expiditions?

[simple raptor]

i wonder if you can transfer orbital uplinks out of the expedition once it ends
bcs that seems like smth rly useful to have

[storm fiber]

If you are starting fresh, try nothing

get the entire experience

[icy solar]

Ah yes. I'm not fresh but I do have a save with hundreds of hours

[solemn bane]

If you're on PC there's a way to play past ones offline.

As for what to bring, I tend to go buck naked. I like the feel of starting over.

[storm fiber]

Than at least a lv 1 atlas pass for convience

[icy solar]

Oh awesome. Do you get rewards from the old ones still?

Do you share ANYTHING with your other save from expiditions or is it an entirly new save each time?

[oblique belfry]

Really? How?

[solemn bane]

Yeah you get the rewards and the unlocks just like running live ones. The unlocks are accessible on any save in your account (again just like live expeditions).

[split vigil]

Is there some trick to signing a station? I assume I have to do that on foot?

[solemn bane]

In my profile.

[marsh wadi]

go talk to glados

[icy solar]

Oh lets gooooooo

[split vigil]

is that the station core, or?

[solemn bane]

If you have the quest selected it should have an icon at the terminal

[dark pond]

Can you pull the Corvette out to main save like ship did after finishing the expedition?

[split vigil]

thanks, forgot about that. hrm, now I feel like I'm in the wrong station somehow heh

[ornate glen]

Hello, I hope this is actually the appropriate place to ask, I'm completely stuck on the Reclaimed Weaponry mission. I try to warp to systems that are marked as dissonant but it just tells me "Mission target is very distant Reset to a nearby location from the Log (Esc)". If I do that nothing seems to change at all, I can find systems where it tells me to use the galaxy map to find a dissonant system but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. To be honest I don't think I've ever really understood how to navigate with the galaxy map but with this especially as far as I can tell there's no guidance at all to tell me where I should go and I'm really confused.

[naive crypt]

Looking at these milestones, the only thing I recommend bringing with you would be some smuggling goods

[thin hatch]

Dissonant system means there's a planet that says "dissonance detected" when you scan it

Go there

[marsh wadi]

map to the sentinel pillar if you have one
i hear ppl are strugglign with that

[ornate glen]

yeah I'm on one right now but it still says it's very distant

[thin hatch]

Doesn't matter, just go there and do the expedition milestone

[naive crypt]

The game doesn't mark one? okay then that's something you need

[marsh wadi]

i hear ppl are clearing 5 star wanted too and that not working either

[thin hatch]

Sentinel map, lander autochargers, and a good jump drive range/eff upgrade

[naive crypt]

Sentinel Map, Anomaly Detector(optional), contraband

[thin hatch]

Anomaly detector + contra isnt needed imo

You get a free anonaly detector

[marsh wadi]

whats the anomaly detector do ?

[thin hatch]

From the milestone right before

[naive crypt]

detects anomalies

[slate wadi]

What stuff should i take with me for this expedition?

[light relic]

what is best cockpit, titan, ambasador, or thunderbird?

[thin hatch]

^

[ornate glen]

I don't understand what I'm meant to do though because it isn't telling me (as far as I can tell)

[thin hatch]

Go to the expedition page

And look at the milestones

[ornate glen]

yes I know, it just says claim a multi-tool from a harmonic camp, but I don't know what a harmonic camp is or where I can find one and the game isn't telling me

[naive crypt]

All in the looks, whatever you prefer

[thin hatch]

• general goodies, like some warp cells, or chromatic

[marsh wadi]

why are all the chat messages i see in the anomaly using the placeholder/missing symbol ?

[thin hatch]

Did you scan 3 fauna

[ornate glen]

yes

[thin hatch]

If so, the reward from it is a echo locator

Use that

[thin hatch]

Thunderbird has the piloting orb like 3 feet away from the camera

[naive crypt]

someone's using foreign language unsupported by your system

[ornate glen]

ahhh okay

[thin hatch]

Idk if the others are like that, but i didnt like it

[ornate glen]

thanks

[thin hatch]

A lot of the milestones give you everything you need for the next one

[tidal depot]

Any good rewards in this expedition?

[thin hatch]

Lotta corvette parts, derelict locators x2

And a fuckton of storage augments

[tidal depot]

bet i’ll do it later

[thin hatch]

Remember, do NOT accept the storage augments while doing the expedition

Decline them

Then you can transfer them to your primary save when you're done

[tidal depot]

wait do i have to make a new save for it?

[thin hatch]

Especially as this expedition is only like 3 hours long

[thin hatch]

It works kinda like making an alternative save tied to a primary save

[marsh wadi]

i love waiting for plants to grow

[thin hatch]

You can transfer stuff between em

[tidal depot]

how exactly do i do this

[thin hatch]

The humble bugged frostwort with 10 minute grow time:

[marsh wadi]

😭

[thin hatch]

Go to the anomaly, to the expedition terminal

Close to the quicksilver guy

[solemn bane]

Bugged?

[thin hatch]

Frostwort is growing in 10 minutes

[warm hound]

erm guys so I did the quest to explore a direlected freighter i believe is the name and so I did and it still didnt count towards the quest now its asking me to spend 5 m to re do it and I dont have them 😭

[thin hatch]

As opposed to 1 hour

[thin hatch]

Go to helios in the anomaly for another chance

Make sure you get all 3 major terminals

[solemn bane]

Oh I see, no that's by design. The grow timer for this expedition is set to .2

[thin hatch]

Ah

[warm hound]

k il try that

thanks

[thin hatch]

He's the tree guy

By the chef

[ornate glen]

oh.... that's unfortunate

[thin hatch]

Yeah I used a lot before finding that out

Sadly

Starship/multitool upgrades dont come easily

[ornate glen]

well hey I read that just in time to save the multi tool slots from that last mission I did, so thank you :)

[warm hound]

wdym I went to him the tree dude and he js gave me nanites

[thin hatch]

Guh

Try talking to him again?

He gave me another freighter detector

[warm hound]

i did and he didnt 😭😭

[thin hatch]

No way he's set to only give them on wednesdays

Its once a week I thought

[warm hound]

well then how else can I get them?

[thin hatch]

Get dem units

I guess

Need the 5m

[warm hound]

😭😭

any fast method?

[verbal stratus]

Find a sentinel ship and sell it

[tight nest]

any reccomendation on getting avd mining laser in the expedition, i can't go to anomaly

oh nvm

when did that unlock?!

[proper flume]

After every first warp jump.

[rigid walrus]

after ive done all tasks how do I finish the expediton? to get my stuff back

[abstract ridge]

Ok so this is my third expedition but I always forget what I can bring back. I'm on my main save but didn't bring anything with me. Do I keep all the units, nanites, & quicksilver? Can I bring back the corvette I build & is that best way to bring back all the corvette parts if it's possible.

[weak gazelle]

Anyone got the current community %?

[tight nest]

im jused to it jumping in and forcing the dialogue but it didn't seem to do that in expedition

[thin hatch]

Cant

[abstract ridge]

I think it was like 48% like half an hour ago

[thin hatch]

You can only have the corvette

Sentinel ships are disabled

[thin hatch]

Uhh, smuggle, or sell corvette parts

[warm hound]

yeah i js sold all my extra corvet parts

[thin hatch]

Selling corvette parts is probably easiest

[weak gazelle]

[proper flume]

Yeah, every expedition I've done, anomaly just opens usually after your hyperdrive first warp.

Corvette parts aren't hard either.

[verbal stratus]

Wait what does this community contest give?

[proper flume]

Just stay in corvette, leave seat, mark salvage, fly over and shoot it. Repeat.

[thin hatch]

1.2k quicksilver

[verbal stratus]

Dang I thought we were getting some cool ship parts or sum

These expedition rewards are kinda dissapointing ngl, but the cannon is cool

[light plume]

Deadeye cannon is a good enough reward for me

[thin hatch]

I...

[light plume]

Positron ejector turret yey

[thin hatch]

The "deadeye" cannon is an upgrade

For the shotgun

[light plume]

Yea ik

Still prefer that weap over the other turrets a corvette can have

[proper flume]

Eh. Hopefully more updates give more parts.

[thin hatch]

Yeah, but why the shotgun

[proper flume]

I want sentinel corvette parts. Maybe Pirate corvette parts like the solar sails.

[thin hatch]

The exact opposite of a high-call sniper

[light plume]

Torpedo launcher buffs cyclotron, so I already expected it to make 0 sense 😭

[thin hatch]

...I missed that

Because i assumed, like a sane person

That it would be for the missiles

[verbal stratus]

My guess is they will revamp corvette weapons in the future

[rigid walrus]

how do I get my stuff back from the expedition

[verbal stratus]

Most things about the corvettes feel really early access

[proper flume]

Torpedo being a missle. Buffs cyclotron.

[formal palm]

I finally got a boundary map

[proper flume]

Makes sense.

[thin hatch]

The terminal, but if you send stuff back now, you won't get the 1.2k quicksilver

[light plume]

Yknow, I wish that was a joke but it isnt

[formal palm]

tip: do not farm sentinels on dissonant planets

[rigid walrus]

wont let me

[thin hatch]

If you hit end expedition, it will let you place items in, but disable you from collecting the other optional milestones

If you just place items in, without confirming

You can switch to your primary via the main menu and take them out there

Then swap back and add more items

[rigid walrus]

dont have end expedition button

[thin hatch]

Did you finish the expedition?

[rigid walrus]

yeah

[thin hatch]

Guh

The expedition terminal, right?

[rigid walrus]

yyup

[thin hatch]

In the anomaly

Guh

[rigid walrus]

resume expedition

[thin hatch]

Oh

Go to your expedition save

Not your primary

Via the main menu

[rigid walrus]

when will it be done

tomarrow?

[thin hatch]

Probably tomorrow evening

Its at 48% now people were saying

[rigid walrus]

53%

[thin hatch]

But if you end now and just add the 1.2k quicksilver via save editing

Who cares

[rigid walrus]

yeah all it says is return to primary save

not end

[verbal stratus]

God I remember the construct community contest that was such a pain

[thin hatch]

Can you put items in the terminal?

[rigid walrus]

no

[thin hatch]

Or just send a screenshot of the terminal

[rigid walrus]

'

[thin hatch]

Any chance you already hit end expedition + confirmed it earlier?

[rigid walrus]

nope

just back to save

if there was a confirmation button specifically warning me

didnt see any

just back to save

[thin hatch]

This is what I have

[rigid walrus]

nooope

[formal palm]

u have phases done

[thin hatch]

It looks like it still thinks you didnt complete the expeditions

[thin hatch]

So does he

[formal palm]

oh wait mb

[thin hatch]

Though uh

Where's phase 5 on my image

[formal palm]

🤔🤔🤔

[rigid walrus]

WAIT DO I HAVE TO CLAIM ALL REWARDS?

[thin hatch]

Oh

probably

[formal palm]

maybe

[thin hatch]

Just decline the storage augments

[formal palm]

oh yeah

[thin hatch]

And it'll give you the items

[formal palm]

his phases arent vibrant
