Try turning off MP, see if that helps? I haven't heard of someone having this exact issue though

[timid badger]

has to be the fastest community research I've seen

[vestal prawn]

I think someone mentioned having issues building their corvette after warping to the station while inside their radiant pillar ship, might be that, might be fixed on reloading the game

[leaden dagger]

What community research give?

[torpid oracle]

Part of me agrees, part of me can't help but feel like maybe they just set the bar low

[torpid oracle]

1200 quicksilver

[visual arch]

Must have been it. I was in the ship when I teleported the first time. Reloaded a save and teleported not in the ship. The workshop terminal seems to be working now, thanks

Hello there. I had a question, in the Expedition there is an objective, implying to fly in annoter player's corvette. Can someone of my friends, not in an expedition, join me to help me get the objective ? Or he must do his own expedition too ?

[visual rapids]

he has to join the expedition himself, yes

[neon belfry]

Ugh, sad. Thanks for your fast reply by the way

[urban vessel]

Ya 6 weeks of play in 4 ish days 😛 Never done an expedition until now ... they all completed this fast ?

[vapid heron]

Camp out in the anomaly, then get onboard one and wait

[visual rapids]

iirc regular saves and expedition saves are instanced separately, even when it comes to matchmaking/joining other players

[neon belfry]

The space hitchhicker

Good idea honestly

[urban vessel]

thats what I did 😄

[vapid heron]

This was the quickest expedition so far

[urban vessel]

I was gonna say 😄 too short lol ... liked every thing else about it but that

[vapid heron]

I managed it in 7-8hrs

[mellow badge]

saw something like that on my corvette, guy just sitting there, one guy clipping through walls (our 2 corvettes taking same spot, only mine was loaded for me), I took off while looking behind me and the guy stayed sitting in the anomaly

[vapid heron]

One guy earlier did it in under 6hrz

[urban vessel]

Were the last 18 longer in comparison ?

More difficult ?

[frank viper]

someone help, i need an uber xD cant summon my ship

[mellow badge]

all expeditions are expected to take a while to do, just people get really good at speedrunning them

[kindred mesa]

Some took forever, others were 2-3h max

Really depends

[urban vessel]

Forever as in ... days weeks ?

[kindred mesa]

Days but mostly due to community milestones halting progress

[vapid heron]

I no expert player but I took far longer in previous expeditions

[urban vessel]

Gotcha

[kindred mesa]

Now they're optional - so that issue is a relic of the past :D

[fluid vault]

oh jeez we're so close

[urban vessel]

Oh well, Im used to missing all the good stuff lol ... didnt come back until 5 months ago after missing all the other ones. Launch had NOTHING to do after the incomplete story ... so I left and forgot about NMS ... oh well 😛

[vapid heron]

Maybe double digits at least

[mellow badge]

a lot of players just wait till the expedition is over, and a modder updates the commercialism mod (unlocks expedition rewards)

[kindred mesa]

Good timing, just be around towards the end of the year and they'll do reruns of older Expeditions again I'm sure

[urban vessel]

Cool 😄 I know to follow now

[mellow badge]

thats how I did the expeditions, I joined the ReRuns

[frank minnow]

do they do reruns in sequence or is it random

[fluid vault]

i really enjoyed the reruns when i was just starting too

[vapid heron]

I don't like the Xmas reruns i have holiday commitments away from my pc

[mellow badge]

last time was in sequence

and the rerun expeditions arent active as long as the first time they show up (usually 2 to 3 weeks instead of 6)

[fluid vault]

me hugging my laptop (it is portable nms machine)

[kindred mesa]

Up to how Sean feels that year :D
Think 1-2y ago there even was a Pioneer Expedition Rerun (first ever expedition years ago)
Usually it's 1-2 Expeditions from the current year + a handful older ones in quick succession (~2 weeks per)

can i transfer my corvette back to the regular save whole? or do i have to break down the parts and do it that way

[vapid heron]

can copy it over for a nanite fee

is that a flat fee or depends on size

you think i can still eek out a sentinel fight somewhere and successfully crush it? Can it be done in space?

[vapid heron]

sure, expeditions end when you hit up the terminal in the anomaly, go wreak havoc sir

[grand ingot]

well theyre bugged right now

i got to stage 4 and they could never find me

or spawned in the bedrock

[vapid heron]

why are you escalating engagements?

[neon belfry]

🇫🇷

[frank solar]

Why's there this random teleporter on a planet?

[kindred mesa]

If you want to battle a whole ass death star opposed to one limp transformer, sure

[frank solar]

a teleporter to my ship

[grand ingot]

to shut down the sentinel forces

[vapid heron]

corvette convenience!

[frank solar]

why did i just notice it

[little robin]

only appears if you don't actually land the corvette

[frank solar]

ooooh

[grand ingot]

or can i buy a sentinel boundary map somewhere?

[frank solar]

thats pog
that saves launch fuelll

[vapid heron]

kill corrupted sentinels, get shattered glass-getmaps, go pillar, turn off pillar, stage complete...

[limber relic]

great ship name lmao

[neon belfry]

You can find it in buried packages

[mellow badge]

you forgot the ???? and Profit

[grand ingot]

so back to a dissonant world, woot!

[opaque timber]

yeah i had that what u have to do is chase after them ASAP before they run off, still possible

[grand ingot]

not if theyre below bedrock

[vapid heron]

indeed, the big red button at the back on the other side of the ramp handle is your friend when in atmosphere, it will also appear if you jump out the back of your corvette

[frank solar]

thats because it is a shitty corvette xD

[vapid heron]

dangit!

[opaque timber]

is it possible to transfer a freighter u found in the expedition

[frank solar]

lol silly me was always landing

[vapid heron]

yes, for a number of nanites

[opaque timber]

damn nice

how much is that fee though roughly

is it a lot

[twilit marsh]

I had this exact issue. Eventually I turned on multiplayer and portaled to a base right next to a pillar.

[vapid heron]

emjoy the convenience of no longer having too, unless you wander too far to want to go back to the teleport

[kindred mesa]

...is it actually? Thought it's just the MT+Ship

[vapid heron]

previously around 2800 nanites, might be a touch more for the corvette

[opaque timber]

not too bad then cool

[vapid heron]

i dont knwo yet, havent finalised the expedition, am waiting for the community element to complete

im on permadeath so this expedition was a godsend😭

[vapid heron]

previous expeditions have allowed you to copy over the ship you ended with, its expected that you will be able to do the same this time

[tired condor]

I don’t mind grinding a bit on expeditions so I don’t need to bring everything but is there anything you should bring for this one to make life easier?

Didn’t see anything in the pins

[vapid heron]

the expeditions are like leg-up starts so its all good

[frank solar]

they give us so much inventory sapce and im still struggling to empty my inventories..

[opaque timber]

i kept all mine to transfer over

[mellow badge]

Loot Hording, the bane of gamers everywhere

[opaque timber]

just make the storage things in corvette

[frank solar]

"i will definitely need those living slime in the future"

[vapid heron]

some O2, NA and FE also something to convert to units/nanites possibly some tech to get a headstart, collect from the terminal in the anomaly

[frank solar]

huh?

[opaque timber]

the 10 storage containers

[mellow badge]

just toss all that living slime in a tub and have a soak

[frank solar]

i dont even know what most of the stuff in my inv is (for)

[austere crystal]

Hi guys! Haven't been able to get my hands on the game since the update....Just wondering, can you transfer your expedition corvette to your main save? Like with multitool and starship

[vapid heron]

its expected

[tired condor]

Cool thanks, I mainly hate having to swim around in the ocean forever collecting something I’ve got like 20 of on my main for instance

[frank solar]

amino chamber, hydraulic wiring, dirty bronze, et c.

[opaque timber]

its 500 slots of storage for 10 microprocessors and 30 metal plates

[frank solar]

my corvette is fairly small rn D:

[vapid heron]

you wont need the storage, i got through the expedition saving all the upgrades for my main save and to give to a friend who doesnt have as much time as i do

[frank solar]

wdym saving all the upgrades for your main save?

the space station exosuit upgrades can be saved?

[opaque timber]

yeah i only made so much cos i want to farm for my normal save

[vapid heron]

the exosuit expansions and stuff

[grand ingot]

sentinel fights are all bs, still cant get past 1 star

[mellow badge]

if you dont actually unlock the stuff when prompted, you keep the exosuit upgrade items in your inventory

[frank solar]

oh those, yeah i didnt use any yet (i dont have any?) xD

[limber relic]

my biggest regrets that I forgot were: oxygen, warp fuel, and ammo

[frank solar]

i only used space station exosuit extensions

[tired condor]

Cool, just the basics then

[mellow badge]

when milestone reward prompts you with slot unlock screen, just exit out without unlocking slots

[winged vigil]

I did the same 😅

[vapid heron]

distance helps with weaker weapons and prioritising targets

[vapid heron]

this

[frank solar]

why...did nobody ever...tell me this 😄

[mellow badge]

i got units by digging up corvette parts and selling em

[vapid heron]

you can transfer them to your main save , post expedition

[limber relic]

Besides the multiplayer bugs this was a pretty nice but easy expedition. Very chill compared to my last (liquidators)

[vapid heron]

liquidators was fun

[frank solar]

well guess i will save the ones from phase 3-5

[winged vigil]

I thought I messed up and lost out on the expansion the first time I did it. 😅

[frank solar]

I mean i guess i can't "break" progression eh

[limber relic]

It was very fun, it also took much longer for me and iirc the community goal was MUCH slower.

I love my exosuit parts from it tho

[vapid heron]

if you dont already have them maxed they save on the daily grind a little

[frank solar]

I will always get exosuit expansion stuff on main anyway..

[winged vigil]

I also saved ship and multitool expansions.

[frank solar]

i dont wanna stay with my free S class ship for too long..
feels like cheating 😄

I actually thought about using the corvette as main ship then

[winged vigil]

I forgot I have things other than my Corvette 😅

[limber relic]

this is what I'm thinking as well, for everything except space battle related things. It's just so nice to have compared to flying up to a frigate

[frank solar]

the upgrade modules etc. from starships can just be carried over tho right?
Except weapons i guess?

i never had a space battle other than some weak pirates so yeah

[vapid heron]

i took way longer on previous expeditions too but i think that was the nature of them, but i'm not a nms expert by any means

[mellow badge]

can be repackaged (the grey icon items) to be transfered

[winged vigil]

I will say, they may be slow but a corvett can absolutely shred ships.

[vapid heron]

yes, but your will be limited to 8 tech items

[frank solar]

huh?

[limber relic]

oh nice, I hadn't tried but I figured they'd be outclassed pretty quickly by legacy ships. I will try that new weapon from the expedition today though

[winged vigil]

I stealing the emergency warp it gave me 😅

[vapid heron]

if it sits in your ship or exosuit you will be limited to transferring 8 items over and 24 inventory items

[winged vigil]

I haven't had to much of an issue fighting anything even with my B class.

[mellow badge]

having to fight the sentinel ships in space (kill 3 for milestone) was annoying, they kept strafe running me, I was fighting em in VR

I can see how that kind of VR action would give people nausea

[winged vigil]

Got a feeling I won't have enough room for all the cakes I got 😅

[mellow badge]

the cake is a lie

feed the cakes to the dude in the anomaly for nanites

For those of us who wont be home to play in a few days, are there many rewards that are exclusive to the expedition? Ive never done one before

[vapid heron]

my keyboard is too sensitive for accurate typing, great for gaming not so much for productive office work

[grand ingot]

so i butchered corrupt sentinels on a dissonant world but did not give me a pillar

[winged vigil]

Yes but usually these rewards get added to the quicksilver vendor in the anomaly if you miss any.

[vapid heron]

pillars are found with the maps, maps come from the shattered glass they drop

[grand ingot]

ah

sometimes the animation starts then it cancels itself

[upper path]

I just readed the main no man's sky lore

on expedition I just want to finish as fast as I can lol

[silver vessel]

Ok, so we don't have to go searching for an outlaw system?

[spring sandal]

reply on this

[vapid heron]

good to know, how many nanites ?

[spring sandal]

i forgot, I did it earlier ago

[vapid heron]

you should come across one as you follow the exped path

[spring sandal]

but apparently IT DID

[vapid heron]

only had that issue jumping higher than the atmosphere

[barren glacier]

i just end up guessing if i am tbh, usually i go a bit below any clouds

i know it does pop up but still

[thorny copper]

Anyone tried customizing your corvette in VR? Is there anyway to get a Birds Eye view like in flatscreen mode?

[barren glacier]

it's super annoying tbh

[vapid heron]

eek, i dont read chinese(?) unfortunately

[silver night]

Any tips for the skydiving requirement? I just tried and I went for about 20 seconds and when I got to the ground the timer reset. So obviously it has to be one continuous dive. How tf am I supposed to dive that long?

still wait for community research........

[barren glacier]

gotta find a planet with a big atmosphere rlly, if you hold S or pull back on the stick etc then im pretty sure you'll fall slower

[limber relic]

once we get this quicksilver what are you all buying with it? I'm thinking of getting an emote

[spring sandal]

and yes i build a ship that mimic the D77-TC Pelican from Halo

[vapid heron]

low grav planet will help with the sky diving

[patent oar]

Or just big planets

[vapid heron]

nice nice

[little robin]

i skydove for like a minute earlier hehe

[patent oar]

Personally I parked my ship slightly above the atmosphere and then spacewalked into the planet until it put me into the skydiving, the fall lasted for like 3 minutes

[wet elbow]

I found out that your corvette can be too messy (some ignorants would say ugly) to take a photo of 🤣

Every single copper deposit near my expedition spawn is covered by a base.

[nova cairn]

there is at least one base where you can get copper from

[tulip root]

sigh "mañana"

[nova cairn]

not sure how you will get there without teleporter, but people made some bases with extractors

[sick ginkgo]

It doesn't have to be pretty to be functional.

For anyone struggling at the expedition spawn, craft some creature pellets and befriend a beetle to ride— can probably get far enough to find somewhere to refine copper. I found a trading outpost nearby the spawn myself and it sold chromatic metal, sell all the gravitino balls ya can hold, simply buy resources.

What is the best means of transferring all these corvette parts to your main save?

[eager sluice]

I’m gonna guess just attach the parts to your current corvette and it will allow you to save it?

[tulip root]

Yup. Log out and back in works

[vapid heron]

you'll be able to make a copy after you end the expedition

[tulip root]

or press the s (back) key if you're on the PC

[wraith badge]

That's going to quickly become a right royal PITA

[tulip root]

It only happened once to me

[fringe star]

That's what I was thinking. Making an abomination of a corvette

[tulip root]

Alternatively turn off multiplayer when you come in to land. I think it's related to space stations being saturated by corvettes

[runic crest]

Appreciate that! Got that done aha, Now I can’t spawn my ship on the ground tho

[wraith badge]

happened a few times to me, even after quitting game

[kindred mesa]

Ye I ended up landing in the middle of the ocean without having Aqua Jets on my Corvette 😐 can relate

[young ember]

can i run ts solo offline or is other players around like a requirement\

[tulip root]

There's only 1 optional milestone you won't be able to do

(I think the reward is like 500 quicksilver)

[young ember]

also since i've never done an expedition what happens when it's done? do i keep that save or is the corvette i make in this going to move to my primary save or do i just keep whatever final reward is there?

[tulip root]

Depends on whether you created a new save for the expedition or started the expedition from the terminal on the Anomaly

If it's the former, you can convert that save to a normal save, if it's the latter you can transfer stuff back to your main save when done

[young ember]

fuck's sake, you could do that?

uuuughhhhh

[subtle sedge]

how long do you have to wait for plants to grow?

[tulip root]

Don't feel too bad about it. I missed it for like 2 expeditions in a row after they implemented it lol

[young ember]

fine i'll start over

[marsh wadi]

note that there's a limit to how many items you can extract if you started the expedition on a pre-existing save

[tulip root]

I've heard mixed messages on whether you can transfer your corvette back over to your main save or not, too

[subtle sedge]

i planted a mordite root and still have 0/8 progress

[tulip root]

you have to harvest 'em to get progress

[subtle sedge]

theres no harvest option

[tulip root]

Yeah, have to wait a bit for them to grow - I think it's like an hour or so?

[subtle sedge]

jesus

[marsh wadi]

I forgot to try tbh, but I also wasn't that attached to mine. big things for me were the inventory expansions and a few tech modules (the starting X hyperdrive I got in the exp had a pretty juicy roll 😋 )

afaik they grow when you're not in game, too

[winged vigil]

I think they were expedition rewards. Maybe in the quicksilver vendor?

yea for me the sentinels are so stupid right now they cant see me if i stand infront of them

[brittle elbow]

Wait, you can disable a pillar in stealth?

[quartz adder]

It will, make sure you spot the terminal first and then move close and then activate cloak, its very easy, I did it as well.

[tulip root]

lol, need more hab modules, my dude

[brittle elbow]

You'll have to if you want to cram on everything for the different milestones

does this technically works

and then add an engine on that side lmao

but the first one is technically blocked

[tulip root]

It's an old meme, but it checks out

[naive anvil]

"WE ARE AT CAPACITY"

[ember vine]

Heh... Though it is FAR better that the game is somewhat lax about placement of modules rather than too strict. I had to install a noclip mod on starfield because of this. If two parts overlapped by even one mm it wouldn't let you place them. I find a lot of building games do this and it's always frustrating.

[tulip root]

Agreed, and you can make much cooler-looking things by making them clip through each other

[fringe star]

@woeful niche Try trading for the ion barrier

[woeful niche]

As soon as I typed my last response I realized how dense I was being. I can't buy it, I have to trade for it just like you said. Doh!

[tulip root]

The barter system still baffles me. I think there's "tiers" of value to components, with cosmetic stuff being the lowest

[pine mulch]

what parts are available to get autophage?

[dawn pelican]

maybe i should change to offline mode

And you can transfer stuff from the expedition back over to your main

[pseudo merlin]

Like the portable refiner strat?

[solar saffron]

Cool thanks

[fathom whale]

are the rewards for the expedition solid?

[marsh wadi]

dunno if anyone else mentioned this, but I believe that there is a way to play old expeditions, offline, and have access to the rewards on your save with online play afterwards?

[fathom whale]

trying to decide if i wanna prog my save or if i wanna spend the time in expedition

[hollow patio]

Its digital

[tulip root]

Bear in mind there's a limit, but you'll have space to move over most if not all the stuff you actually want.

[marsh wadi]

expedition should only take a few hours to clear

[pine mulch]

wow

thats crazy

[visual rapids]

on PC yeah

[pine mulch]

let me try

[hollow patio]

!tier

[unkempt kraken]

@hollow patio Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[cobalt nimbus]

yeah

or does it just not work on corvettes

[marsh wadi]

womp womp to console players I guess :p

[tulip root]

You have to faff around with editing save files though, I think. That always makes me nervous

[ember vine]

So just to be 100% sure... When I copy my hunk of junk corvette from the expedition back to my main save (mainly just to raid it for parts), It will not affect my curent corvette? You can have more than one at a time?

[marsh wadi]

psure you can manually backup your saves locally

[visual rapids]

you don't need to, there is a website to generate past expedition files

[pseudo merlin]

No yeah it works! You just have to delete the second refiner using the build menu instead of picking it up directly

[tulip root]

Ok sweet. Might have to try this out some time

[marsh wadi]

this sounds like a fresh save slot, which would make a lot of sense

[cobalt nimbus]

no i know that, it just doesn't work in your corvette

[tulip root]

I missed like 2 expeditions

[cobalt nimbus]

i played 1 expedition xD

[marsh wadi]

Corvette is my first, even though I played for a bit a few years ago

@silver mist Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[pine mulch]

can someone send me the ss of autophage parts that can be bought rn please?

[pseudo merlin]

Worked just fine for me, it’s a bit jank but the refiner dupe always is

[marsh wadi]

which one?

[dawn pelican]

if i capture a freighter in the expedition, can i bring it back with me?

[vapid heron]

nope

[dawn pelican]

damn it, i just found a pirate freight and captured it

[marsh wadi]

they are pretty easy to get imho

[vapid heron]

unlucky, hopefully you'll find one in your regular game

[ebon sparrow]

!tier

[unkempt kraken]

@ebon sparrow Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[placid dew]

Still at 98%!

[pseudo merlin]

Place refiner -> put item you want to dupe in the input slot -> place another refiner in the same spot -> delete one -> get items back while said items are still in the remaining refiner

[ebon sparrow]

so close!

[marsh wadi]

"midnight last night" yeah no lol, glad I didn't decide to wait for 1200 quicksilver :p

so many ppl yesterday in chat thought it would be finished sooner

[vapid heron]

the completionist in me says no, must wait 100%

[woeful frigate]

same

I MUST

[dawn pelican]

i can just make my game go into offline mode right?

[vapid heron]

yes

[tulip root]

I was about 4 hours off with my calculations I made last night 😄

[vapid heron]

its advantageous with the station entry problems atm

[pseudo merlin]

Tbh I was kinda hoping there’d be some special corvette parts for completing things as a main-save reward

[marsh wadi]

ah interesting considering the refiners aren't really limited on what items you can put in them. I genuinely might use this for frigate tech points since spamming nexus missions is such a slog

[unkempt kraken]

@keen meadow Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[marsh wadi]

you can just spacewalk in

[vapid heron]

it is, you get loads of free bits and people have made some decent corvettes on hte expedition

[tulip root]

I saw so many monstrosities, though, and I love it

[pseudo merlin]

Yeah I ended up using them for salvaged data, fossil parts and all the different inventory modules. Idk if corvette parts are among the items allowed in the refiner

[winged vigil]

Yeah I don't think there's a social reward piece other than a set of cannons

[opal glade]

!expprogress

[vapid heron]

i was being diplomatic :P

[marsh wadi]

^

[marsh wadi]

I haven't seen many if any items you can't put into a refiner

[pseudo merlin]

Yeah ik I get some parts in the expedition save, and there’s the deadeye cannon recipe, but there’s nothing like special corvette paint or an exclusive cockpit/entry hatch or whatnot like that. Just the ship trail

[silk wasp]

2% players dont go to phase 5 spacial station

[winged vigil]

It keeps suggesting for me to put Corvette pieces in. 😅

[tulip root]

So. Close.

The rate yesterday was about 3% an hour. I think it's slowed down significantly

[marsh wadi]

I've used the backpack refiner as an extra 2-3 storage slots when inventory space was tight

[median junco]

think it's just upgrades and tech packages that aren't allowed in

[marsh wadi]

sounds about right

[vapid heron]

euro workday is ending, progress might pick up now

[eager flame]

I finished last night and it was around 87% done. I just sat down in the anomaly and will load back in tonight once it’s done.

[tulip root]

We started to plateau on the 3rd

[topaz brook]

makes sense. everyone involved in the expedition can only ever make five contributions (and really, they're required to make all 5) so as fewer and fewer people trickle into the expedition on later days, there will be fewer contributions

[tulip root]

My thoughts also

The laggards are carrying us all

[topaz brook]

it's where, 98?

[tulip root]

Yup

[topaz brook]

it'll be done in the next few hours regardless

[junior shard]

Also why is like every planet having hostile sentinels

[tulip root]

Within 2 hours, by current progress

[junior shard]

😭

[topaz brook]

it's part of the sub-theme of this expedition, seems like

the sentinels have somehow lost the definition of what anomalies/travellers are (us) and have become hostile or dissonant

this community goal is supposed to re-establish neutral relations with sentinels

...actually, if people were to do multiple saves where they just bum-rush the rendezvous milestones (and whichever peripheral milestones might help with reaching them quicker) we'd probably see a boost in the community milestone

i'd do it, but i have some pretty big errands to run today (and as mentioned it'll be done in the next few hours anyway)

[ember wadi]

Would probs see a boost if there wasnt so many bugs stopping people

[north pumice]

How do I "imprint signature" at a rendezvous station?

[marsh wadi]

talk to glados

[little robin]

talk to the station core

[vapid heron]

expedition lore

" The Atlas/Aeron Surveillance Uplink has been compromised. Sentinel authorities have become actively hostile toward Traveller entities. Starship trade has been forbidden. " hence the introduction of corvettes

[tulip root]

You're doing god's work there, Mumbles. The rest of us are waiting for enough people to finish doing this 😄

[north pumice]

I don't even know how.

[tulip root]

I see. someone who reads things. 🧐

[north pumice]

I need to go back to the rendezvous stations I already visited and imprint

[finite bay]

i can't find maps for sentinel pillar

[hollow patio]

you can use space station teleporter to go back to previous visited stations to imprint

[marsh wadi]

did you try clearing 5 star wanted ?

[ember wadi]

Welp that fixes my unable to land thing

[north pumice]

I am. Just gotta figure out the names of the systems they were in

[wanton frigate]

hang on... are you suggesting that the reason the Switch Patch is taking so long is so that when all hope in the curve is lost we can appear in the East like Gandalf and deliver that community goal on our janky handhelds?

[tulip root]

Can't run into capacity-related docking issues if you're not using your ship.

[finite bay]

i can't reach level 5, sentinel are stuck somewhere and I can't clear the wave

I need more dps tho

[hollow patio]

People have placed communicator hubs and beacons at sentinel tower locations at rendezvous system planets, follow those

[marsh wadi]

do note it's a bit buggy (was unable to edit Corvette, reloading game spawned me outside) but you can simply use the portal to be "properly" in a station

[tulip root]

"ride, Switch players, ride to the Expedition!"

[finite bay]

i will try

[hollow patio]

when you open teleporter they are tagged with rendezvous and number labels

[fringe star]

No map needed. Look for comms stations on Gojo 28/G5 near sentinel pillars

[marsh wadi]

consider blaze javalin stunlock
also yea you gotta be super aggressive with hunting down the sentinels which is annoying

at least you can start on wave 3 by picking up gravitino balls

[north pumice]

Yeah I found it. I talked to glados...it gave me one option other than leave "Upload anomaly definition" which I already did

[tulip root]

I had to shoot some plants to keep them interested in me

[lapis ridge]

time for me to farm corvette parts so I can make a Ranger Class Starship from star trek

[visual rapids]

nearly there!

[ember wadi]

What happens at 100%?

[tulip root]

poggers

[marsh wadi]

like 90% of the planets I saw in the exp had those gravitino balls and they instantly set you to 3 stars 😋 plus they usually spawn in groups so you can stretch them if needed

[marsh wadi]

universe explodes

[ember wadi]

Dang

[marsh wadi]

yup

[north pumice]

Oh wait...The reason this says 98% and is incomplete is because I need other people to do it, to raise the % to 100%?

[patent oar]

Yep

[marsh wadi]

yup, it's a community thing

[north pumice]

If I end the expedition before this is complete, I can not get 100% on it (even tho it's optional)

[fringe star]

Yes, hell is other people

[tulip root]

Through the power of friendship all is possible

[north pumice]

Not fair for people who do it later on

[marsh wadi]

all you miss is 1200 quicksilver as far as I know

[north pumice]

Rather if you do the expedition early...the people that do it later get all the credit

[tulip root]

cough switch users cough

[marsh wadi]

you can switch to your main save without fully ending your expedition, you just can't extract any items until you fully end it

[north pumice]

I have completed everything but that and I'm not completing the expedition until that fills. It says we can trade ships with it filled!

I don't remember ship trading being a thing

[patent oar]

You never bought ships?

[north pumice]

Not from players

[patent oar]

It's talking about npc ship trading

[north pumice]

Really?

[patent oar]

Yep, you can't right now

[north pumice]

I thought I was getting teased.

[marsh wadi]

psure it's mostly just flavour because the expedition wants you to play with the corvettes

[vestal prawn]

oh btw quick question, can you take nanites and quicksilver back to your main save or should I use up my quicksilver and turn my nanites into modules before exiting

[patent oar]

You can take them to your main save

[marsh wadi]

it should transfer

[north pumice]

Your stuff gets converted to nannies and silvers

[vestal prawn]

oh cool thanks!

[marsh wadi]

you do get a few slots to bring back items if you want

ngl biggest reward in the expedition was probably the storage slots, at least for ppl who aren't already maxed out

[north pumice]

So how many here are just sitting on the expedition to finish this one objective?

[vestal prawn]

me lol

[patent oar]

Same

[formal thicket]

Now we just need living corvette modules

[north pumice]

You can tell the servers are struggling when NPC stop animating that they're walking and start sliding along the floor.

[tulip root]

I'd love them to overhaul living ships first. They're a bit disappointing given how much everything else has overtaken them

[north pumice]

Living Freighter pls

Or living corvette woo

Customizable goo ship

[vapid heron]

8 tech slots and 24 inventory items

[north pumice]

I think the game is screaming...I asked a gek for help with their language. They taught me..."Help!"

[snow ruin]

"From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel."

[vapid heron]

1% to go folks

[split vigil]

Has anyone else been having their game crash on planets with frost crystals on the expedition? I can't recall the last time my game has crashed otherwise, but whenever I land on a cold planet on this expedition, I crash to desktop within a few minutes, under differing weather conditions, locations, tasks. Happens over and over

[tepid grove]

🤚

waiting is taking so long :(

[tacit drum]

16

[tepid grove]

16

[vapid heron]

everyone waiting for the community element finishes the expedition and collects the rewards

[snow ruin]

So do something else for a while ;P

[vapid heron]

chores, endless chores

[tacit drum]

There is a whole world of possibilities...you could make a PB&J Sammy

[round panther]

i got trouble boarding a freighter (after saving it)
is that just because expedition and we are not supposed to get a freighter?

[bright kindle]

Hello, I take it the optional milestone "Resistance" at the end of Phase 5 is a community wide thing. If I end my expedition now, will I be able to recieve the 1500 quicksilver reward once the community finishes it?

[snow ruin]

Not as far as I know

Gotta still be in the expedition to get it

[tacit drum]

Nope read the information provided.

You need to inspect the station core after completion

[snow ruin]

Did you start from the Anomaly in an existing save?

[bright kindle]

from the anomaly

yes

[frank minnow]

how is this resistance shit STILL not done

[bright kindle]

hm it's at 99% it should be finished pretty soon shouldnt it?

[snow ruin]

Then you can just go to the menu and click "return to main save " (or whatever it says exactly) to be able to still do things on your main save

[frank minnow]

it was at like 91% when i started work and im finished now lmao

[snow ruin]

You can then go back to the expedition through the expedition terminal again later

[bright kindle]

when do you reckon it will be finished?

[snow ruin]

Sometime between now and the heat death of the universe

[spring sandal]

[unkempt kraken]

thanks guys

[junior shard]

is conflict scanner the thing to see pirate systems

[copper trail]

c'mon do something...

[patent oar]

Yes, or economy scanner also works

[north hill]

Do we just wait for this to complete before ending the expedition?

[copper trail]

thats what im doing

[north hill]

Okay I will too

I wanna 100% it lol

[copper trail]

its optional but completionism

[random abyss]

Need help with one,zero for the sentinels cause its kinda tough for me would be thankfull if someone can help me

[tight pivot]

The ship building mission in phase one won't register as finished after I built my corvette, what should I do?

[snow ruin]

Remember that if you started from an existing save you can always go back to the main save through the menu and then later also return to the expedition through the expedition terminal, you don't have to finish the expedition before you can got back to main save and do stuff

[north hill]

I used the cloak thing and snuck in and did it without having to fight any

[random abyss]

wdym

[proven swallow]

someone had a base that had the control panel for it indoors

[north hill]

I went to planet Gojo 28/G5 and activated a sentinel pillar map, installed the cloaking device you get at some point, and just walked in, disabled it and bam

[vapid heron]

while you can, its not necessary to wade through the five stages to turn off the sentinels

[proven swallow]

teleported there, deactivated it, and they didn't even see me

[copper trail]

for zero one I just kinda, found a sentinel, and started throwing hands

[hollow patio]

noic

[north hill]

I saw someone say it in a YouTube comment section lol

[vapid heron]

you can remove the base from the "quick menu" and scrolling to right and report the offending base

[hollow patio]

I'm flying around in R5 system waiting for the counter to hit 100% and offering rides to anyone who wants them.

[copper trail]

funny how a sentinel pillars reaction to some unauthorized being interacting with it is to immediately shut down all security on the entire planet

seems like a flawed design doesnt it?

[north hill]

That’s a good idea, I’d do it but I’m on Xbox so I can’t tell them what I’m offering

[junior shard]

I guess the optional 99% thing is done any second now?

[hollow patio]

We probably have persuasion/netrunning at 100

[proven swallow]

nah it was useful lol

[visual rapids]

it's not a reaction, it's the player overriding the security on the planet (supposedly with the help of an Anomaly npc)

[random abyss]

well thanks for it

[tulip root]

Current rate is 1-2 hours per %

[copper trail]

they gotta get a new password or like, 2 factor auth then cause their security sucks lmao

[dawn pelican]

which modules effect manouverability

[vapid heron]

engines and cockpit?

[visual rapids]

you can add thrusters past the max 3 for functionality and they will still count for the objective

[north hill]

Np

[hollow patio]

You can follow players around planets and hover above them to have the boarding short range teleporter pop and see if they climb aboard.

[vapid heron]

i threw 6 thrusters at mine to check that objective off

[north hill]

Ahh good idea thanks

[vapid heron]

then sold/traded off the excess 4

[north hill]

My corvette I created is a monstrosity lol I was just putting everything on it to do the objective

[finite bay]

i am not finding them. I tryed to use the teleport but there is this error "unable do download base"

[odd peak]

Can anyone tell me what to do in this game

[wise meteor]

Some people have made bases at sentinal pillars. If you find one, go there and you can just switch them off to get the achievement. That is what I did.

[dawn pelican]

got 5 thrusters and a cockpit, no luck tho

[crisp flower]

Exploring

[halcyon edge]

ughh im stuck on One, Zero i cant find a map and have been fighting sentinals for a few hours now

[odd peak]

How do I make money

[vapid heron]

you should find maps in the shattered glass drops

eek wrong again

[crisp flower]

You can sell stuff on space stations, i personally sell stasis devices

[dawn pelican]

weird, did it again and just moved 1 thruster and it all worked

[wise meteor]

See what I just wrote above. I was stuck like that too. If you are lucky you will find in the base listing someone has made a base at a sentinal pilar, TP there and switch it off 🙂

[odd peak]

Ok thank u
