[faint mesa]

I want to know who will be the player we will get to finish the expedition with 8 minutes left this time.
Eager to see!

[signal wind]

Yep its rinse and repeat and same pricedurals to a degree. I still play a little and on expeditions when they come just cause really like the game. OTher games like Fallout or borderlands I go about till I finish everything and clear every point of interest I can find then move on lol

I suck at creativity when comes to design and build in real life and in games so just never got into that mechanic in any of the games, I build bare necessity for storage cause I am a loot hoarder and a place to rest then go out exploring.

[indigo falcon]

ah I am a loot goblin too but my main focus does turn ou tto be building things one way or another, so that's very open ended

[signal wind]

I cant build for crap lol. A roof and some walls and storage works for me lol.

even in fallout 4 I ignored settlements and companions, when I played again I mainly used companions for carrying my excess stuff haha. Starting to use mroe mechanics though these days even in NMS starting to build farms on the freighter and gas collections on planets.

I have I 62 refiners on the freighter so try to find a system with a gas I dont have an excess of then leave my freighter there for a while till move on. My farm takes up 1 floors entire length of left hand side of each plant for making stasis devices and about 10 rows of nip nip

[indigo falcon]

I uh glitch build in biodomes these days if I feel like I need a farm

I'm very protective of the visual landscape

[signal wind]

I thought bout doing that but got lazy and couldnt be bnopthered jumping the planet it is on so just did a freighter floor

[indigo falcon]

materials? got plenty .want a bunch of eyesore biodomes filling up the visial space? nope

[signal wind]

My inventory is overloaded so dont need too much now lol

My settlements are set up so 2 are in pirate systems so I can port in get modules from the marketplace there then port to pirate sstations get more on a run then port back to settlement and on to another without the netwrok restrictions.

I started cooking a few months ago the stellaror donuts and such. My damn freighter got completely filled with runaway mould and took me a week to process it hahaha

[indigo falcon]

lolol

[signal wind]

There is fishing in the expo isnt there? oddly I am starting to enjoy fishing in games

[faint mesa]

There is a little bit, yep.

[indigo falcon]

two milestones with fishing. small stuff this time

I like fishing in games as a general rule, and there's nothing better than sitting with my feet kicked up, on the deck of my fishing paradise base, basking in the sunset and reeling 'em in

[signal wind]

Dont mind jumping around fishing now. I have I think about 8 legendaries to go to complete the list in main save

I am running about catching the legends on RDR2 atm too lol

[faint mesa]

Go for it. Title you get is one of the best in the game in my opinion

[indigo falcon]

I can't be bothered to collect the titles now. I would like some of the different bobber types though

[signal wind]

I have a couple of the fishing helmets so far the jellyfish, anglerfish and another 1

[indigo falcon]

oh are they helmets and not bobbers? meh in that case

[signal wind]

certain things award you customisation helmets

Catching and releaseing the child of aquarius for example

[faint mesa]

...I mean, it is kind of amusing to run around with an old boot in a fishtank as your head lol.

[indigo falcon]

lol

[signal wind]

I havent got the boot yet lol

[indigo falcon]

maybe but my interest is purely in new bobbers

[heady pilot]

You only have to catch five fish and then a couple more to get a specific catch near the end of the expedition but that one is really easy...you're practically guaranteed to get it within a few casts at any depth of water without bait. Nothing complicated this expedition that would require to craft specific bait, fish at certain times or in certain conditions and you don't have to catch anything rare or hard to get.

[signal wind]

All good I will prob do main quests in few hours then spend another 4 hours fishing lol

I said earlier in RDR2 the camp sends people out to check on me cause I dont return for days hunting and fishing hjaha

[heady pilot]

Focus on completing the expedition entirely, once you have all milestones done and all rewards unlock then fish. Less than 3 days left on the expedition so don't get too distracted and then time runs out and you don't have all rewards.

[signal wind]

Had a good laugh 1st time that happened I was on a legend hunt and Javier appears and says Arthur are you ok havent seen you for days. Want to ridfe back to camp.... No I am good then back to hunting for another few days lol

Yeah saw there is 3 days left. Still trying to get in mood to do it hehe

these last 2 being corvette only kind of put me off as not really into em. I like doing expeditions with nothing brought over from live and just finding myself a good ship, Last one I wanted to ditch the corvette and go find a ship but rules say no haha.

[indigo falcon]

corvette can be a good ship!

[signal wind]

Maybe the buggyness didnt help but I just have no interest in em. I like my phoenix and sentinels

[heady pilot]

Corvettes are the single best jack of all trades ship if you build them right. They can have damage second only to fighters, hyperdrive range second only to explorers(among ships, not counting freighters) but with higher fuel efficiency so you get more distance out of a full hyperdrive, the outright best shields of any ship type, and some high end maneuverability too. Plus they have the benefit of being a portable base where you can have large refiners, grow plants, install storage, etc. There is real merit here to say that if you can only have one ship, it should be a corvette.

[signal wind]

New stuff a game this age does have its moments so they are doing well continuing on as they do but there comes an end limit I guess haha.

[signal wind]

I know their worth I just dont care for them or like them and as I mentioned before I have no interest in building mechanics in games lol. Just not my thing

[indigo falcon]

not everybody has to like everything, it's why this game has such a diverse user base

[signal wind]

Yep thats why I give the devs credit for how much they can manage in the games especially at this age of it. I will give the expedition a run like I did the 1st corvette one just to do it but then shelve the stuff and go back to how I explore lol.

WHen I said I oddly like fishing I always hated fishing games and in game skipped it but now enjoy it

NMS fishing is simple mechanics wise making it relaxing to do and just sit on shore or on top of my ship out on the water and enjoy the planet.

[indigo falcon]

that's fishnig in real life if it's a hobby and not a living

you go out for the vibes, the slow pace, and the nature views

[astral fulcrum]

Where can I get wiring looms in the expedition?

[marsh willow]

Any galactic exchange

[dark imp]

So I have almost finished the expedition but missed the tengerals goal I am near the final star system and didn’t vist the station in time stamp 3. What do I do?

[indigo falcon]

every space station has trade terminals that work. check both rooms in every spacestation and also loot all the boxes, very important!

[indigo falcon]

go to r2 and look for the r3 system name in the galactic map, or um 'plot a custom rout'e' in nthediscovery tab and then select custome route in the galaxy map

then go there and get it done. system names are in a pin in here

[dark imp]

I take it there no search bar on the galaxy map

I may be looking for a while

[indigo falcon]

no but you were in the system, you visited it, so it's in the discovery tab so you can plot a route to it

and that will show up in the galaxy map when selected

[dark imp]

Oh

Ok thanks I will do that tmor I need to sleep for now

[indigo falcon]

rest well, explorer!

[dark imp]

You too (or maybe not idk the time for you)

[indigo falcon]

early yet, but in some hours 🙂

[astral fulcrum]

How do I adopt an anomalous companion?

[indigo falcon]

one of the planets in the rend 5 system has them, see info in pinned posts in here for more info

when you find them there, drop ap ellet via quick menu and wait for one to come and grab it, then click, adopt, done

[astral fulcrum]

How do I tell which world?

[indigo falcon]

it's in the pinned posts in here

the one with all the tips

[heady pilot]

Craft a creature pallet, feed it to the creature, then interact with it a second time, and adopt as companion. As for how to know where, you just have to pin the milestone, it will tell you at the bottom right of the screen if the system you are in has any of these creatures and then as you land on each planet and moon the milestone will tell you if the current planet or moon has them or not.

[indigo falcon]

dropping a pellet has proven easier for some players than cllicking on the critter in flight to offer them a pellet

[heady pilot]

Sure but I wasn't talking about method...it doesn't matter how you feed the creature(whether by hand or dropping the food in front of it), it just matters that you feed it.

[indigo falcon]

oh I see, I read your statement as "offer food" (like, responding to that prompt)

[pulsar panther]

How do I know which planet is relic planet?

[indigo falcon]

rend 5 system "icy ruin" (typically but not always, these planets have "ruin" or "abandoned" in the title)

[pulsar panther]

The bones hVe nothing to do with it?

[heady pilot]

When scanned from space a planet will have a description with words like: relic, reliquary, abandoned, overgrown, ruin, or ruined.

[heady pilot]

Hot worlds can also have "Lost to Fire" and radioactive worlds can have "Claimed by Decay"...those are relic words too.

[indigo falcon]

worlds can have bones and not relics, happens all the time

[alpine saffron]

PSA for anyone about to start the Expedition: Don't skimp on sending your Technologies to the Expedition! There are no "real" space stations to buy more, and the Anomaly has no sellers in it either

[indigo falcon]

But do not forget to loot the loot boxes at the space stations. You may not get the best upgrades but there will be some, and they can be useful.

[alpine saffron]

Oh yeah, the space stations that we do get have surprising loot

[pulsar panther]

I wasted 45 minutes hunting vigil stones because that was the only time I found polished stone, turns out I just needed to mine the ruin stones lol

[alpine saffron]

Oh shit, do we need polished stone at some point? I've only ever touched it for Settlements, so I completely ignored it during the Expedition...

[pulsar panther]

I sent only a few materials because I had just started and I never got them back

[pulsar panther]

In the last phase but it's pretty easy

[alpine saffron]

You couldn't get them from the Anomaly terminal?

[pulsar panther]

Is the anomaly the big circular ship?

[alpine saffron]

Yeah

[pulsar panther]

No I didn't I didn't try to summon it

[alpine saffron]

The terminal where you start the Expedition is the same spot you get your gear back

[pulsar panther]

I honestly thought that the expidition would specifically tells us to go pick your items when they allow us to summon the anomaly

But I was wrong 😂

The anomaly never came up at any point

[alpine saffron]

Yeah it's easy to miss, I did the same thing on the last Expedition before I started checking some FAQs

[pulsar panther]

Also I have a question, the quest said I'd get a pre packaged fishing rig, but I didn't get anything like that why?

Honestly I wonder if it was even needed

The expidition eventually gave me most of the gear I was missing

[indigo falcon]

you do get a fishing rig for a couple fishing related milestones

[alpine saffron]

Did you complete Phase 5 "Reassemble a complete Skeleton" and accept the reward? That should've given it

[pulsar panther]

Yeah I did I got plans for bait but not the fishing rig

[indigo falcon]

was you suit inv full?

check ship inv maybe?

[pulsar panther]

No

I checked both, but since you guys say it's an actual item I'll check again when I reopen the game

Maybe it was in a spot I didn't notice

[indigo falcon]

yeah not a blueprint, a prpacked thing to just install

[pulsar panther]

Yeah didn't see anything like that, but maybe it's in those low inventory spots or something

[indigo falcon]

could be, could be

[alpine saffron]

I think the rewards won't even activate if your inventory can't hold it. When I finished the one that would give me the Corvette basics, it told me I couldn't unlock it until I emptied some inventory space

It can drop it weird spots though, a few of the rewards dropped in my Nautilon rather than my actual inventory

[pulsar panther]

When I was riding the nautilon they did

[alpine saffron]

Oh and especially remember to include sprint/jetpack upgrades, as every space station sucks for Corvettes even though they force you to make one, actually wtf

[indigo falcon]

the rocket boots are I guess the goto for that

you get free ones but pretty late on

[tender tusk]

a warp drive upgrade would be good because at the start your warp range is very limited

[cinder bluff]

I'm about to complete phase 5 and I only need the alien menagerie test which sends me to the planet Gisto Menor, but checking the solar system of meeting point 5 there's nothing there. Any idea?

[alpine saffron]

Do rocket boots give you decent forward momentum? I just assumed they were mainly for vertical climbs, I've never used them

[remote thunder]

same advice i gave in #nms-questions

[indigo falcon]

have been told by others that they shorten the trip. I never installed them because I hate them so much

[tender tusk]

I just hit k on PC for autowalk and then tap shift to add sprint and it gets me baack to my ship just as fast

[indigo falcon]

probably half of my time in the expd was walking back and forth from the ship to the back of the space station...

[tender tusk]

I just launch do the run melee boost since you can do that off your corvette ; it's fun on normal mode to see if i can get to the vendors without crashing

[low horizon]

is the Polished stone found on dissonant planet?

[remote thunder]

no, on ruin worlds - like the icy ruin planet in rendezvous 5

[indigo falcon]

it's found on a ruin planet

oof soo many typos

[low horizon]

gotcha

was on wrong planet lol

[indigo falcon]

when you go land on it you'll see things that look like stone ruins, very recognizable

[low horizon]

I know what the stones look like if I see them, just forgot how to recognize the planet

[indigo falcon]

ah!

[gusty moss]

Yo I've been building a decent Corvette but saw the new corvette pieces but haven't done an expedition before anyone willing to give a hand?

[low horizon]

It just so happens that the icy ruin planet is also a dissonant planet sooooo....appreciate it 🙂

[indigo falcon]

there's some good posts pinned in here with tips for this expedition

and a general overview of how they work, too, I suggest having a look at those

[gusty moss]

Thanks mate 👍 I've take the look

[brisk quartz]

Can you not claim freighters in the Breach expedition?

[indigo falcon]

from where? there are no npcs to pilot them...

no pirates to attack them

[brisk quartz]

i found one and there;s noone on it, wierd i cant just...have it

[indigo falcon]

who is going to give it to you?

and wtih no crew, how would it run anyways?

[near haven]

how does one obtain wiring something for the advanced laser cause i aint finding any shops

[light plume]

Space stations
From your perspective when entering, left is teleporter and right is trade terminal

[near haven]

ah i must have missed em

thanks

[indigo falcon]

make sure you check the room with the teleporter carefully, there are loot boxes with some very tasty loot

[stable whale]

So quick question. For no time for caution. Is it better to do the last rendezvous before doing that?

[alpine saffron]

Which planets have the Anomalous Floating creatures? I've been to a few, that have weird floaty creatures, but they didn't count

[stable whale]

Highlight the quest and IIRC there will be a marker on star chart

[indigo falcon]

there's one in the rend 5 system with them. check pins in here for more info

[indigo falcon]

no. be in r4, go through that back hole, you'llbe perfectly situated to do the phase 5 things

[stable whale]

I'm at the final rendezvous lmao...

[indigo falcon]

welp, then... go to any black hole, who cares 😄

[stable whale]

Ill do that last then haha

[indigo falcon]

and just tp back from space station to r5 when done!

[alpine saffron]

Hm, I'll have to check I guess, I didn't see a quest marker

[stable whale]

(Could be wrong. Just as I remember it)

[indigo falcon]

you'll open galaxy map, after pinning the milestone, then select "current mission" on galaxy map, should give 2 max hops to a system with a big pawprint. or you can just wait for r5

(NOT a bug pawprint! shudder)

[alpine saffron]

Hmm I think I was in R4, I'll have to check tomorrow

[indigo falcon]

okey dokey

I used the glaxy map and current mission, landed in some system obviously many oth rplayers had been to because one had kindly marked the riight planet with a base "floating critters here", and so there were

[onyx mica]

For the missions where I gotta harvest stuff, could I just harvest them in my main save, transfer them into the expedition, and knock out those missions with no time wasted?

[tender tusk]

I did and it triggered the radiant shard and crystal sulphide one for me but i brought those for nanites and sub upgrades 😂 ; the storm crystal one might not trigger that way

[stable whale]

What was the final planet again? The name?

Or what it looked like?

[indigo falcon]

r5 system and planet names are in the pinned posts in here

[stable whale]

nvm lol it literally tells u in quest

[indigo falcon]

Timestamp V
System: Nasuda-Wase
Planet: Anma Omega

reading is one of those skills any explorer should have 😛

[warm gyro]

I lost everything I had in 2 ship storages last night. Game glitched and then had nothing in my ship. 2 storages and they were packed lol, refiner, and save thing, all gone

Oh well, it is what it is hehe

[indigo falcon]

awww man, that sucks

no restore point you could reload I guess?

[warm gyro]

Tried both, One was a few mins ago the other something like 20-30 minutes maybe. I wuz hoarding anyway. Buying suspicious packets at space stations. Hope I don`t lose the 2 sentinel ships I have:-)

[tender tusk]

which refiner did you have?

[warm gyro]

You mentioned completing most of the mission with breach corvette so I`ll fini up in it almost done

Ship

[lavish shard]

sigh this damn depth milestone is going to irk me

[warm gyro]

3 slot ship refiner. Had everything for all the last expedition phases and missions. Just a glitch. Mighta been my provider, cox. This rig dont crash, as I dont push no buttons and say wonder whst this button does hehe. Tech illiterate and game rookie

Thanks I`m off

[tired crest]

It's been driving me crazy I'm on a marine planet and the best I've found so far is 845 before I hit the bedrock .....I just keep flying to new spots that look like deep ocean and praying I can hit it

[lavish shard]

Holy hell I just got it. I finally found a wall and when i went over it dropped deep enougg

I just wish the space station i got was worth a crap.. I havent been able to buy anything i need cause it doesn't have it

[indigo falcon]

all the space stations have roughly the same stuff. note that if you find a trading post on the planet, it is going to have some other items in there

also note that you should check Every Single Space Station TP room for loot boxes. no joke

[pseudo bane]

I'm such a nerd sometimes. It's taking me hours, but I'm using 6 refiners in my corvette to process all the other elements in my hold into platinum to refine down to nanite clusters.

Even went out of the space station to shoot up more asteroids to get more tritium.

[warm gyro]

Unreal not believing this. I needed some storage in my bus again so I crafted storage zero. Went to put some stuff in it and boom! all I had in it was there. Built the stor number 1 same thing. Have all my stuff back. Probablr 40 suspicious packages and 20 tech ypgrades for various MT, suit, ship/s. Someone works in mysterious ways. TY NMS lams

Life is good

[indigo falcon]

so your nioterior base parts disappeared, ahhhh

I thought you still had the containers and they were empty!

[lavish shard]

This damn Friends in Odd Places milestone is really vague.. or im just oblivious

[warm gyro]

Sorry they were completely gone, and also refiner, I see I am missing the shortest of my two bays or walkways things. Have to see if it comes back when I get to space station

I had enough bones for 3 complete ones in stor 2. I don`t usually have luck like this.

I believe it`s the moon in the pins. I nearly never found that moon. Hadda go to discoveries and tag it then followed the puppy paw. I juyst waited and they came to me

[warm sigil]

Neat, caught the Spawn of Arcadia first try.

[warm sigil]

You need to adopt a flying animal as a pet from a planet with a purple star.

[indigo falcon]

select the milestone. open the galaxy map. select "current mission". go to the system it indicates, should be two jumps max and you end up at a system with a giant paw icon by it. in that system, see if there's a player base marker on one of the planets that say ssomething about the critters. otherwise you'll have to check all of them.

[lavish shard]

Found it. Was on the right planet. Left too soon

[slender reef]

A buddy of mine was trying to do that in the system with the gas giant, and he said he couldn't find one. I saw him adopt two floating creatures, but neither counted.

[indigo falcon]

it's not just a random flying creature, it's a special sort of anomalous creature

[slender reef]

One was a electric thing from the anomaly moon and the other was one of those ray looking creatures

[indigo falcon]

there's four of them that count, lemme see if I can find the image in here

[slender reef]

I was going to try leading him to the planet I found mine on, but I don't know how far away he is from that system. It was a different one from the one he was in.

[indigo falcon]

#nms-expedition message

found it! ^^

r5 system has a planet with them, info in the pins in here, feel free to send your friend there

[slender reef]

Thanks 👍

[indigo falcon]

good luck!

[onyx mica]

Turns out you can transfer radiant shards, crystal sulphides, bones, and a protoform display to save time on the expedition mission. But not storm crystals 😔

[indigo falcon]

and if you loot them from the derelict they don't count either

[onyx mica]

Idk about seaglass tho

Why does it say it ends in 2 days on my game?

It's 9:10, it's the 3rd and im on pst time

hm well it ends on Nov 6 at 3 pm so that's less than 72 hours, I guess that might be why it says 2 days for you

[tender tusk]

yup 2 day remaining on mine as well good thing i just got mine done again

[indigo falcon]

I was thinking if it was already nov 4... but apparently not

[tender tusk]

it is nov 4th on US east

[indigo falcon]

uh huh but that didn't apply in this case. oh well we all know the end time

Get It Done people!

[dusty pollen]

Might be a dumb question, but do we have to equip the atlas parts to our corvette in order to keep them or do they automatically transfer over to our main save?

[tender tusk]

You have to move them into the Expedition terminal at the end when you finish at the anomaly if you started the expedition from your main save

[indigo falcon]

put them in slots at the anomaly terminal or put them on the corvette andcopy it for some nanites back on the main save where you started the expedition

[prisma tundra]

refiners have had glitches like that for a while with barely any true fix, storage containers shouldn't just clear like that tho

[dusty pollen]

Thx

[indigo falcon]

turns out they didn't; the containers disappeared but when the player put them back, they had all the items in there, luckily!

[prisma tundra]

oh yeah, storage containers work like ender chests, they keep their inventory no matter what, and all that has to be done is have one placed in a base/corvette/freighter to access it, it's honestly really neat

[indigo falcon]

yep, a much better outcome than it could have been

[prisma tundra]

I fear I won't finish this expedition on time, I finished up basically all of phase 3 today (except the creature adoption one cause I'm waiting to do that in the system that the tips in the pins list), but I still have basically all of the last two phases to get done in less than 3 days (& I'm kinda busy most of the time), plus getting all the stuff I want back, oh well lol

[indigo falcon]

you can do it

there's nothing hugely time consuming in the last two phases

[prisma tundra]

Not even the fishing?

Or bone collection/assembly?

[indigo falcon]

fishing is fast: stand on shore, fish 5 things, done

thenext milestone, "fish this specific thing" is also fast: select milestone, stand on shore, fish w/ no bait, get within 5 tries usually

bone collection, well there are spots with like between 8 and 11 bones all in one place on the icy ruin planet, so visita few of those, you're bound to get all the parts you need

[tender tusk]

On my first run i got the bone collection done fast because i landed right on a area with 12 bone sites in a small area; this run i had to go to 3 sites to get it done

[indigo falcon]

3 sites still ain't bad at all.

[prisma tundra]

Yeah I figured that one was quick but not the other one

[indigo falcon]

it's not like finding that 1001u spot, geez now that was tedious

[prisma tundra]

Is the specific fish actually that common to find? I thought that would be most time consuming cause of rng luck in the past with expeditions saying to fish one specific thing

[prisma tundra]

That one wasn’t too bad, the rdv spot was deep enough, and the coords in the pins got me there too

[indigo falcon]

it's not common at all but when you have the milestone selected the game will break rng to give it to you soon

[prisma tundra]

Ah fair enough

[prisma tundra]

Oh fr? I didn’t realize that

[indigo falcon]

uh huh several of us have checked the behaviour and yep

[prisma tundra]

I’ll keep that in mind then!

[indigo falcon]

like I ot it third cast, another player got it first, longest I've seen it take is 5

note we all are with multiplayer OFF

that's the source of most broken crap on this expd so... if you want to finish fast... just sayin'

[tender tusk]

I prepared the sub on a different water world, got the upgrades for it then i went to the water world for time stamp 2, dropped right on top of the rendezvous, deployed and went done like a rock in the sub to the bottom even saw the freighter at the bottom and did that

[indigo falcon]

I did the second "get the log from the broken corvette in space" task before the depths one, so I was well away from the rend. point

[prisma tundra]

Oh yeah, I’ve been keeping MP off for this one except when I joined a friend for a little bit

[prisma tundra]

Oh wow, didn’t know there was an underwater freighter too! I might go back to explore that if I have time, tho personally I don’t like using the sub, I just go for it after installing pressure membrane blueprint upgrade

[indigo falcon]

I did not have a pressure membrane. it was nutilon all the way: drive up to sea glass, hop out, grab, hop back in

didn't have to refuel my life support even once

[tender tusk]

I totally forgot about those this round and did it without but i do have ion battery and life gel with me

[indigo falcon]

yeah I started out with a good supply of raw materials from the starter planet for both things

anice cave with plenty of resources

[prisma tundra]

I just don’t like the way it moves, it’s different compared to other exocraft as well as on foot or ship flying, I can do better when I’m just by myself, albeit I do have to recharge my life support, hazard protection, and oxygen supply regularly but I don’t mind that cause I have plenty

[indigo falcon]

I'm stingy 😛

[prisma tundra]

Derelict Freighter was worse on those fronts than underwater tbh

[prisma tundra]

Fair

[prisma tundra]

Wait, how’d you not die immediately if you were without pressure membrane??

[indigo falcon]

drive up next to the item, hop out and harvest, hop back in

[feral shoal]

I have clicked all the rewards and yet the Atlantid drive is locked behind the materials and I can't build it because I can't get indium. Anyone know what's up?

[indigo falcon]

only outside for like 3 seconds....

[indigo falcon]

you should have a prepackaged one, check inventory

[prisma tundra]

Surely that’s still long enough to affect you?

[indigo falcon]

drops a little

not deadly though

[prisma tundra]

Huh, interesting

[tender tusk]

it's the grey icon next to your launch fuel

[feral shoal]

Wow. Thanks.

then remove the partially installed one after that, it will just cause problems

[warm gyro]

If I clicked on exp complete are the space stations still broken?

[cobalt scaffold]

I have a problem. There is this mission where you have to crush a vile grub. I did that now several times, with the mission active but still... no progress. I killed around 4 of those big bugs and a huge amount of the smaller ones but the mission is still in my log.
What am I doing wrong?

[eager pivot]

You have to craft a hazmat gauntlet a squish the grub by picking it up and interacting with it in your inventory

One of the earlier milestones gives you the crafting recipe for the hazmat gauntlet

[cobalt scaffold]

Thank you! I didn´t know that.

[eager pivot]

Question for anyone; do you keep the ability to craft the Aeron ship parts after the end of the expedition?

[minor jackal]

yes

[pulsar panther]

How do I catch spawn of arcadia?

[minor jackal]

go fishing anywhere with no bait attached

[pulsar panther]

I don't understand so we can only send a few items to the main save not everything?

[eager stone]

Specifically you MUST go to deep water. Fish from the back of your corvette. Then go to a shoreline and THEN fight the boss from the shore. Also there's a glitch where you can't do damage to the boss if you try to damage it from atop your corvette. I'm not sure how prevalent it is or if they've fixed it, but fighting on land is easier regardless

[pulsar panther]

I already finished thanks

Will I take my ship to the main save or it's not coming too? Also what about the money and nanites?

Do I keep my ship when I end expidition and everything in the storage units I built on it?

[west forum]

I can't get any hints from the galaxy map in tthis expidition. I select a mission, like the visit moons of a gas giant one, but in the galaxy map the option for "currrent mission" is greayed out. This is for all of them, it's makign it hardder tto find the objectives. Any ideas?

[knotty peak]

Anything specific I should take from the expedition?

Tech and cargo wise?

Just finished the expedition.

[tender tusk]

for that one you have to visit all moons around that system i think they're are 5 ; You can go to each one until it says entering atmosphere and exit the pilot seat and it should count for each one; I'd suggest having the milestone selected but it'd not going to give you a navigation point for every single moon to go to

[indigo valve]

About how long is the Expedition taking to complete and do y'all think the reward are worth?

[west forum]

Right, I can do that but my problem is in teh galaxy map there is never an option to track thee current missoin so finding all the various syetms for all the different milestones is a pain

[west forum]

For me the reward is incentive to play the gamee again after a thouusand hours 🙂

[tender tusk]

at the end of the expedition you can you can transfer some items and tech over but anything in corvette storage modules will not; when you're back on your main save you can use nanites to copy the last used ship and multitool.

If you want to bring back more there are guides out there to bring back more but it takes time and that's what i'm doing right not at the end of my 2nd run

[indigo valve]

As a new player working on building up my current save I'm just not sure if it's worth the time it would take

But I hate to miss out on something that may never be available again

[fading arrow]

where be the floating creatures?

[indigo valve]

Kind of wondering how fast a person can speed run this

[west forum]

You get unlocks and rewards you can use across all your saves, and can bring back loot from the expidition. You get nanites and credits for everything you do at the end of it as well

But you don't HAVE to do them, and they repeat them every so often so you can always do them later

[tender tusk]

when you go into the galactic map you can filter destination to Expedition like in this image

[tender tusk]

I saw a speed run of this yesterday of 1 hour 1 minute but someone else did it in 1 hour

[indigo valve]

That's wild. I just found a guide saying it should be about 3 hours

[tender tusk]

Check the pinned messages for tips for that but you select that milestone, file to space to check the galaxy map for the system to go to and go to that system to check each planet for the creature

[carmine mulch]

How long does this mission take? Im starting today

[west forum]

Yes, that is my problem. I can never select current mission or expidition so I never get any hints to what system the objective is in.

[tender tusk]

Xaines world on youtube has a 90 minute guide and he's done the 1 hour 1 minute speed run of this

[indigo valve]

Niiiice

[indigo valve]

That's what we've been talking about

[carmine mulch]

Yeah i started reading after i sent that 😅 i hope i have time to do it after work tmr

[tender tusk]

we'll I don't know what else to tell you; this pinned message has all the information with exact coordinate's to get check points as well as system and planet names #nms-expedition message

anythign after that is on the player

[west forum]

I can do the expidition, not having trouble completeing it. Just annoyed I can't get any help in the map screen and want to know if it's a bug or if there is anything i can do to fix it. Guess nobody else is having the same prroblem.

Just makes everythign take longer finding the places

This is impossible. I have dug down as far as I can and im only here

not to mention the nautilus is a pain in the ass to operate

[fringe agate]

Pins have a location, with lat and long

[eager tinsel]

this expedition is bullshit imo

[stark wigeon]

You have to use the nautilom submarine

[eager tinsel]

i am

[stark wigeon]

With the Humboldt Drive module

it’s rlly deep

[eager tinsel]

i got given that by the expedition

the planet literally is not deep enough

What purpose does this serve to the expedition?

[arctic wing]

i spent like a good 30 mis trying to find a deeep place get in youre corvette and fly further and you should find a deep area

[eager tinsel]

yeah i found it

[arctic sedge]

quick question : if i already done with phase 5 of the expedition, but just have a few milestones in phase 3/4 still ...
and already collected all the rewards i have available
(just haven't done tendrils/vile grub/storm crystals/crystal sulphite)

if i end expedition now, i'm not missing out on anything from the expedition, right?

[fringe agate]

Yea, you would be

[vapid heron]

you may mis out on the rewards availanble from teh quicksilver vendor for completing those phases

[fringe agate]

Wouldn't be able to claim the Expedition completion reward either

3 of the corvette parts iirc

[arctic sedge]

no, that's already claimed.

[fringe agate]

I'm confused then, there is a final reward you get that you cannot get without finishing all other Phases

[vapid heron]

i think he means the phase 5 reward

[arctic sedge]

yeah makes sense.
well, to farm those last 4 i guess

[vapid heron]

there is a final reward for completing all 5 phases of the expedition

[fringe agate]

Aye

[vapid heron]

after which the expedition is completed

[vapid heron]

check the pins to help out with the farm, and remember portals in stations are annotated with the timestamp/rendevous systems

[bold bear]

how can i copy/get a corvette ship in the expedition? My last active one wasn't the corvette, should I just go back to my save and get in the corvette and come back?

[heady pilot]

Did you start the expedition from the anomaly on the save where you have that corvette? And was that corvette your active ship before starting the expedition?

[bold bear]

nope

[heady pilot]

Then you can't.

[bold bear]

didnt think id need the corvette to be active

so my other option is to go to planets, scan with my multi tool from my main save to get a lot of units and buy some parts?

[vapid heron]

you'll get enough for the corvette provided to be functional

from rewards

[heady pilot]

If you started the expedition from the main save with corvette you can return to main save, change active ship to be the corvette, return to expedition and then import the corvette. If you didn't start expedition from main save with corvette there's nothing you can do to import ship.

[bold bear]

i started the expedition from my save with an s class figher ship

so i guess thats out of the question

[vapid heron]

did you start a fresh game? or start teh expedition from the anomaly?

[bold bear]

from anomaly

[vapid heron]

then you can leave teh expedtion and swap active ships

then jump back in

[bold bear]

fair enough

[heady pilot]

Not if the ship he wants to import is on a different save than the one he started the expedition from.

[bold bear]

i have one save, so it should work

[vapid heron]

all good then

[bold bear]

ig

[heady pilot]

You should be good then.

[remote thunder]

@bold bear dont forget to save after changing to other ship in existing character and before resuming expedition, so that expedition terminus sees it for sure

[bold bear]

i saw that it was there, i just gotta find mould to refine for nanites

[candid token]

anyone know where i can see what the expedition steps are? the quests.

i mean on the discord. not in game

[remote thunder]

if you're able to fight sentinel ships, you could go for hyaline brains instead as an alternative (shoot up the station till wanted level 4 and stick next to the station to keep them coming; when you're done, dock with station to clear for example)

[remote thunder]

remember to check the pins 🙂 see <#nms-expedition message>

[candid token]

Hey BK. do you know if the multiplayer bug is still going on? i was kinda hoping it would be fixed before i do the expedition but its almost over so im starting now.

[candid token]

yeah i thought i was looking in pins but didn't see this. thank you

[remote thunder]

which bug?

getting yeeted?

[candid token]

from what i understand you want to play the expedition in offline mode to avoid several issues?

[vapid heron]

you should be ok for most of it, but if you encounter issues, turn off MP

[candid token]

ok. sounds good. 👍

wish me luck guys. im doing it blind with 2 days left on switch two at 4 am on no sleep.

[vapid heron]

you wont need it 😉

[candid token]

yeah. just skimmed the quests and they seem cake. none of them that require getting anything annoying or farming plant for 10 hours or anything.

[vapid heron]

quick tip, quartzite is your chromatic metal

[candid token]

preciate it

[heady pilot]

To quickly make like 3k nanites you're better off completing fauna scans on planets. When you scan every creature on a planet you can then press the button to complete it and you get 250 nanites for every creature you scanned there. So if a planet had 9 creatures and you scanned all of them you get 2,250 nanites. Very fast and easy source of nanites. Just don't bother with underground creatures, if a planet or moon has underground creatures leave it alone and go somewhere else.

[meager sage]

Wait... Quartzite can be broken down into chromatic metal?? Youre tellin me i didnt need to fly around endlessly until i found a copper planet...

[heady pilot]

Refined but yes. It IS a stellar metal.

[unkempt kraken]

@meager sage

No gifs in this channel please

[vapid heron]

oof, but yes

[meager sage]

I feel stupid bruh

I did the entire expedition and didnt know that lmao

[vapid heron]

you're not alone, lots of folks overlooked it

[meager sage]

Only issues i had was the water world and the finding all the fauna on the last planet

The issue with thebunderwater world is the same reason i cant play subnautica

Water scary

[heady pilot]

But you can't find a "copper planet" before you get chromatic metal because you need chromatic metal for the hyperdrive and you won't find any copper in a purple system. Copper is found in yellow systems.

[vapid heron]

off topic but subnautica was amazing, i wish i could play it again for the first time.

[meager sage]

I bought the metal at the abandoned space stations and then went and found a planet with copper

[heady pilot]

Next time remember that every stellar metal refines into chromatic metal. Copper, Cadmium, Emeril, Indium, and Quartzite.

[meager sage]

It didnt even register to me that wuartzite was on the list im ngl. I dont even think i read past indium

[vapid heron]

easy to overlook as it was only introduced with the Worlds II update earlier this year.

[faint mesa]

The expedition tip unfortunately doesn't list quartzite, which made a lot of players confused

[vapid heron]

thankfully all it takes is a quick search in a browser and the scanner .

[faint mesa]

Not even the browser perhaps -- I reckon the mission will activate the analysis visor to show you the nearest deposits

[stark scarab]

hey y'all new here. Trying to do the expedition and it's not going well. I keep getting stuck needing to craft something, to craft something else, and I can't even find the basic materials

not really looking for answers cuz i have way too many questions and would drive someone crazy. just seeing if anyone else is having similar frustrations just trying to complete the expedition

[vapid heron]

its somewhat the nature of the game

[heady pilot]

You need to start with the most basic components and materials. What are you missing? What do you not know where to find?

[stark scarab]

yeah i'm learning that with the expedition. I've been just building ships and exploring worlds, not crafting things

[stark scarab]

I don't know, i'll load my save and check. I got too frustrated with it and set it down a week ago

im still on phase 1, got 3/7 parts completed

[vapid heron]

generally each step of the expedition feeds the next...

[stark scarab]

right now it says i need to install the humbolt drive module but there's no slots to install it. i know im missing some very obvious things

[heady pilot]

That's very early in the expedition. It can be done in a few hours but it ends in about two days and nine hours so if you want to finish it now's the time to get back to it and actually look at what you're stuck on, what you need to find, etc.

[vapid heron]

that drive is for the water vehicle

[stark scarab]

Yeah that's what frustrated me. It's taking forever and I've barely gotten anything done

Oh okay... i have no water vehicle in the expedition yet i think

[vapid heron]

you'll get plans to be able to craft the summoning station as you complete the objectives

[stark scarab]

it also tells me to reach the first rendezvous point, but in the Galaxy Map I can't warp there because it says Atlantid drive required

[stark scarab]

Im not sure if ive gotten to that point yet

[heady pilot]

That's a nautilon thing, you won't need that until you get to rendezvous 2. For now look at your expedition phase 1. See what milestones you need to complete and which seems difficult.

[stark scarab]

lol this is why i havent asked any questions. because i feel like an idiot and im missing everything

[vapid heron]

its why this channel gets opened every expedition

[stark scarab]

the first rendezvous is my next objective to complete

[heady pilot]

Alright so you have to warp there. Have you installed the hyperdrive and fueled it up?

[stark scarab]

i did but now i'm out of fuel

and i dont know if i have an Atlantid drive but it seems liek i dont

[heady pilot]

The atlantid drive is given to you, should be in your inventory, you just have to install it. no crafting material needed. So you should just need to craft fuel.

[stark scarab]

well it gives me the option to install the atlantic drive but i can't craft it because i dont have the parts

indium, atlantidium, living glass

so it wont let me install it

[heady pilot]

No. Look in your inventory, there should be a packaged one in your inventory.

[stark scarab]

its in my inventory on the starship page

[heady pilot]

A packaged one? NOT the one you're trying to craft.

[stark scarab]

i dont know, how do i tell?

[indigo falcon]

you want to be looking not in the tech invenory but the cargo inventory, so not the top rows but the bottom section

[vapid heron]

is that it next to the silicon in your inventory or is that an upgrade module?

[heady pilot]

No. Delete that. Look at the gray thing in your ship's inventory.

[indigo falcon]

when the game gives you things (upgrades, prepackaged items) they will go into your cargo slots always

[stark scarab]

youre right i do have a pre packaged one! do i dismantle the other one?

[vapid heron]

yes, doubling up does nothing

[heady pilot]

Yes.

[indigo falcon]

yes, dismantle the one you tried to craft, and install the prepackaged one.

[stark scarab]

thanks yall

[vapid heron]

and will actively prevent installing the prepackaged one

[stark scarab]

it worked! thank you all!

so yeah it took me from day 1 of the expedition to get to that point. so I doubt im going to finish it in 2 days but i appreciate the help

[vapid heron]

there is a guide on reddit that might help, search for "nms expedition 20 guide" the first result should be a reddit link with a guide that claims to take 3hrs... video and text guides

[stark scarab]

thanks, i tried following that and it really didnt help me

[vapid heron]

there's always here as a fall back

[stark scarab]

it assumed a lot of knowledge about the game that i apparently dont have

[indigo falcon]

it's expected that players have familiarity with the basic game mechanics before trying an expedition. so it will take you more work to get through.

[stark scarab]

well ive got 500 hours in the game so i'm familiar with the basic game mechanics, just not all of them apparently

crafting isnt something i had done at all

[indigo falcon]

however as a general rle, the expeditions for the current year are always rerun strting sometime in Novembe, each one being alotted two weeks. so you would be able to catch all of those.

how did you play 500 hours and never craft anything?

[vapid heron]

i always saw the expeditions as an accelerated start point rather than requiring a bunch of experience

[stark scarab]

didnt know it was required

[indigo falcon]

hmm may I ask what game mode you play in?

[stark scarab]

i dont know

[indigo falcon]

it doesn't require players to be experts, but knowing the basics is expected.

[indigo falcon]

if you go into the difficulty settings (in the options menu) what does it show on top?

normal, custom, etc

[stark scarab]

Normal

[indigo falcon]

well in normal mode you have to craft things, otherwise, how do you fuel the warp drive, the pulse drive?

anyways

[stark scarab]

i just click the recharge button for those, never had to craft anything for it

which is a large part of what confused me in Breach

[indigo falcon]

maybe you're in creative on your main save, that could be

[stark scarab]

is that the wrong mode?

[indigo falcon]

expedition gameplay is in normal or survival mode where crafting, hazard protection, lifesupport are all issues to deal with

[vapid heron]

there is no wrong mode, just different levels of difficulty

[indigo falcon]

it's not wrong at all. lots of people play in creative mode. but it means there are things about the gameplay you'd need to adjust to for the expedition

[stark scarab]

ok thank you, i had no idea about any of that

i just want to build ships and explore lol

[indigo falcon]

well that's how many players are, exploring and ship building are large parts of the game after all

[earnest aurora]

Making a copy of the corvette at the end of the expedition srsly deletes the 'original' corvette of mine, without any option to recover? 🤣

[indigo falcon]

it sure shouldn't

so tell us where it was!

[vapid heron]

in between the couch cushions?

[earnest aurora]

Indeed. First, there was only 3 ships ath the 'other ships'. Now, i have 2 more corvette designs, my original, and the expedition corv version, before renaming it. O.o

It sounds like a bug, with exploit possibility. I can rip all the modules from both expedition designs, kind of doubling the gain on sellable parts.

okay....

well better too many parts than too few I guess!

What pushes the Tier ticker this time round?

Also you can copy your ship over, store all the non-core parts and do this over and over again as long as you have the nanites

Igor a bit bored after 10 but I could’ve gone for more

[stark scarab]

now im stuck on the shipbreaking part... i think i looted everything but the task still isnt complete. ill run out of health if i keep looking for loot

[shy dagger]

yo, i am doing the "scavenge lost frigate" mission on the first part, i have scavenged all the parts and yet it doesen't complete

[shy dagger]

yeah this

[stark scarab]

good luck, this expedition thing is driving me nuts

[shy dagger]

ok i got it

you gotta interact with an orbiting box

[stark scarab]

like on a space walk outside my ship?

is the box orbiting the broken frigate?

[heady pilot]

There is a small floating container in space, scanning will highlight it. Once you interact with it you get the lore log. That is the only thing that matters for the milestone and the expedition.

[stark scarab]

the only thing that highlights with a scan is a tritium rich asteroid

no boxes or containers i can find, iv been flying around scanning looking for it for 15 minutes lol

[heady pilot]

Did you use the debris rangefinder and then pulse through space until you triggered the event?

[stark scarab]

yep, found the frigate and got some module from it. but the task still shows as incomplete

now im just dodging space jellyfish

[heady pilot]

There is a box floating in space, small, separate from the big chunks of the ship, that's the ONLY thing you have to loot. The rest is just optional crap.

[stark scarab]

found it! it didnt have a marker

[vapid heron]

scanner should hilight all the interactables

[stark scarab]

and flew back into my corvette but still floating likke im in space and taking damage

lol just died in my ship

[stark scarab]

it was not highlighted

[vapid heron]

you need to Press C to activate the scan to reveal the hilight

[stark scarab]

i scanned many times, it was not highlighted

luckily i found it eventually by just flying around

[vapid heron]

odd

[stark scarab]

good example of why this has been frustrating so far- the guide & notes dont line up with what im seein in game

i appreciate all yalls help

[indigo falcon]

check pinned message inhere with tips, the planet name you need is in there

[indigo falcon]

I guess this is just the usual quicksilver missions at the nexus, there are no community missions in the expedition

[indigo falcon]

you scan as though you are scanning for planets, and you look for a blue icon with white arcs in it (it's the buried tech icon, if you are familiar with that); itwill be attached to a very small item floating in space away from the two large parts of the wreck. interacting with that item completes the milestone by itself, but you should mine the two components on the wreckage anyways, becaise they give you corvette parts.

oh, ALSO: check your settings under options; turn multiplayer off (it's the source of manybugs in this expedition)

[stark scarab]

Thanks, i scanned the area many times and it didn't highlight. luckily i found it eventually by flying around and only died once haha

[indigo falcon]

you'll want to use the scanner, it's much more effcient. scan and don't see it in your field of view after turning around? move below the large wreck pieces or to the other side and try again

[stark scarab]

haha yes i know, like i said i did use the scanner many times

tried from far away, close up, on approach, everything. scanning didn't highlight anything

[indigo falcon]

it did show the gear icons on the two large wrecks though, right?

[stark scarab]

no, i just shot the wrecks

nothing was highlighted after i found the wreck

even using the scanner

[snow bear]

on approach? were you on foot outside your corvette while scanning, or in your ship?

[indigo falcon]

the scanner did not showo you the two gear icons even after shootnig them? then you might have been using the "wrong" scanner

there's two ways to scan

[stark scarab]

tried scanning both ways

nothing was highlighted

which is why it took flying around for a long time to find it eventually. i didnt know about the multiplayer causing bugs, i have to assume thats why there are so many issues

[snow bear]

o h turning off multiplayer is the first thing you should do on an expedition

[indigo falcon]

if you did not see the gear icons over the areas you mined on the two large pieces of the wreck, then you're not using the right scanning. you need that to work no matter what.

[stark scarab]

thisis the first i heard that

[snow bear]

multiplayer causes weird bugs, especially right after updates or on expeditions

if you don't need it on best to leave it off

[stark scarab]

what do you mean not using the right scanner? i tried the one in the ship and the one while flying around on space walk

[stark scarab]

this is the first iv heard of that. would have been nice to know! haha

[indigo falcon]

do you recall how you scan for resources (like oxygen and di hydrogen) on a planet when walking around?

[stark scarab]

yup thats how i scanned in space by the wreck

[snow bear]

have you checked the pinned messages in this channel? It mentions it there, alongside other tips

[stark scarab]

with the suit scanner and the ship scanner

[stark scarab]

nothing was highlighted

[stark scarab]

ill check it out, thanks! I only found this channel recently

[indigo falcon]

you want to be doing that when space walking. try it now for just a moment, if your ship is still close to the wreck. get out there and, well for me on controller, it's l3 (the left joystick buttnon, depress it)... I dunno what it is for you on PC. you'll want to look at those top areas you mined on the wreck pieces, and be sure you see the icon with blue background and white gear pop up right after the scan.

also, welcome to this discord and the channel!

[snow bear]

no worries ^^
if you've been playing in creative mostly, I can imagine adapting to normal is a challenge

[stark scarab]

yes i tried the scanner many times

as i said, it didnt highlight anything. idk if im not making myself clear or what

[indigo falcon]

what platform are you on btw?

[stark scarab]

i already found the thing by flying around randomly for 20 minutes anyway

[indigo falcon]

you are vey clear, and that means something is wrong, so I'm trying to sort that out

you're going to be doing this 4 more times, see

[stark scarab]

im just saying the scanners didnt work

[snow bear]

you are making yourself clear, it's just hard to tell what is going on because it should be highlighting certain things

[indigo falcon]

four more milestones just like that

and we don't need you to be dying 4 more times!

[stark scarab]

right, it should. but its not. which is why this is so frustrating and i put it down for a couple weeks

[snow bear]

if you want a second pair of eyes on the issue, next time you're trying to salvage the Fireship Arcadia wreck you could stream/screenshare and I could take a look

[stark scarab]

if the rest of the expedition is going to be the same as this first part then i doubt ill do it

sounded fun but its been ridiculously tedious and broken

[indigo falcon]

there area variety of different milestones but in each phase there is: reach the timestamp point (or whatever they call it these days)and find/loot the wreck again.

[snow bear]

I did it the other day. If you want to give it a go I'd be open for watching you screenshare and giving tips

[snow bear]

have you turned multiplayer off now?

if it was on that could be the culprit for a lot of brokenness

[stark scarab]

thank you, i appreciate it

[stark scarab]

thank you

[stark scarab]

not playing currently but i'll do it next time i am

[indigo falcon]

good! you'll want that no matter what.

[stark scarab]

appreciate all yalls help, sorry its been so painful just getting me through the first phase haha

[snow bear]

no need to apologize, the discord likes helping people ^^

[indigo falcon]

hey that's (part of) why we're here, to support folks going through.

and you're doing all the work, after all!

[compact fractal]

How to do friends in odd places its the only mission i have left

[indigo falcon]

rend 5 system has a planet with the critters, see pins in here for planet name which I forget

[cobalt scaffold]

YES! I´m a also very disappointed, and I only try to finish it for the stuff we get. It´s the worst experience I had with NMS so far, and I didn´t expect something like this expedition from Hello Games.

[topaz saffron]

Hello I’m currently stuck on on 5-3 alien menagerie I’ve searched the planet for 30 mins haven’t seen one creature am I bugged?

[snow bear]

ironically this has been a smooth expedition for me, even the derelict didn't bug out like it did the previous
so experiences vary it seems

[indigo falcon]

the corvettes were ridiculousl hard to get out the door, mobile bases that can land at other bases, that can show up in the anomaly with other mobile bases, etc... so many ways that can be broken, and they have been

which planet are you on, first off/

Atm I am even not able to reach the cockpit seat of my corvette anymore. I think, I will change to the ship from the beginning and return to the corvette on the next space station.

[indigo falcon]

ok great. do you have multiplayer on? if so: turn off, save-exit-reload please

[stark scarab]

yeah i guess ive been playing on easy mode or something, because i had no idea the gameplay loop would be like this. it might be because of the multiplayer thing, but its really frustrating that liek every single step of the expedition has been unclear or broken for me. like the drive that i couldnt assemble... because there was a pre packaged one in my inventory, but it wasnt the one that was already installed? that is INSANELY tedious and awful. like man, i just want to fly around space

[snow bear]

the whole "prepackaged" technology is a common way expeditions skip grind, but if this is your first one it makes sense it would confuse you

[stark scarab]

haha the only thing it made me skip was 2 weeks of gameplay because it was su frustrating

[indigo falcon]

expeditions are meant to introduce you to aspects of the game you may not have seen yet, even for players in normal mode. the particular milestones and environments may be unusual (or the fact that there are no npcs, for this expediition for example) but the "normal mode" gameplay loop is very much: gather resources, build/craft things, explore, keep your suit charged up, gather more resources, etc.

and sometimes kill things

[compact fractal]

What kind of pet should I get? Is there like a type of it

[indigo falcon]

yes, there are four specific creatures that work for it, allflying/floating

[snow bear]

If you have the milestone selected it should give you a route in the galactic map

[hard snow]

debating if I try to speedrun this expedition now or if I just wait for the rerun

[cobalt scaffold]

Yes, I experienced one bug hunting the next myself. Also the descriptions of missions don´t really tell you what to do (nobody said, I should look out for a log at the fireships mission at the start for example). I feel like I have to work out myself how to accomplish the most steps instead of getting informed by the expedition log. And even then... most stuff is bugged like hell.

[indigo falcon]

@compact fractal see #nms-expedition message

[indigo falcon]

how much free time you got before the end?

[stark scarab]

sorry youve had a bad experience with it too. At least helps make me feel like im not going crazy though

[snow bear]

If you want more guidance when something isn't clear, there are videos on youtube that show each step of an expedition
unfortunate about the bugs though. Maybe some were due to not turning off multiplayer, but that shouldn't really be required if I'm honest. But atm it's still best to keep it off for expeditions and such

[hard snow]

I have today off from work
but trying to play an expedition for awhile in one sitting might make me nauseous

[cobalt scaffold]

Also why doesn´t the log tell me, that I have to gather the vile brood thing. I killed it four times only to get the information then here instead of being able to read it ingame? And buying munition? Yeah, I can get around 600 shot at the space station, So I am supposed to return to another star system, hoping, that I can refill there...

[snow bear]

you can craft ammo

[compact fractal]

Damn is there any way to sell these upgrade modules theres i can't bring all of them usually i sell them before going back but recently the expedition has no npcs

[cobalt scaffold]

I don´t want guidance. I think, a game and it´s missions should speak for themselves.

I mean, I can read.

[indigo falcon]

mmm if you've got some solid experience under your belt and focus just on the objectives and have mp off and check the tips in the pins in here etc, you can get it done easilyin 4-5 hours, maybe less than that. but it's up to you

[snow bear]

No Man's Sky is about exploration, so I think there is a reason some things aren't always being spelled out

[snow bear]

nope, that's the thing about an abandoned mode expedition, no npcs

[indigo falcon]

you don't even have to kill the huge beetle. just crush the grub, hop on ship and leave; milestone complete!

[indigo falcon]

no npcs to sell them to...

[stark scarab]

i think this is a fair point, except when the basic functionality of the game is broken like mine not showing highlights. or it's absurdly tedious like having two kinds of those same modules, and only one of them is the correct one

then it's like, exploration has been sacrificed for tedium

[cobalt scaffold]

No, if you have to read a log during a mission, then you should get informed about that. It´s simply a fact, that Hello Games didn´t put much effort into this expedition. I play this game since 2017, and NMS never felt like a game made without love. Now it does.

[snow bear]

I'm sorry to hear you feel that way. For me, the recent updates have been positive, just dragged down a bit by bugs understandable when adding something as huge as corvettes.
When it comes to negative expedition experiences, for me corvette was much worse, due to getting stuck in the derelict and having to rerun it. It varies from person to person, it seems.

[indigo falcon]

this does feel likethe buggiest update (well corvettes and following have been extremely buggy) but I can't imagine being able to QA that in any real sense

[snow bear]

Good point, if it's a bug like no highlights showing where there should be ones then it doesn't fall under that

[indigo falcon]

the tooltips often do give you info when the expdition milestone info n the log page does not

[stark scarab]

anyway, i just really appreciate yall helping me out. i still love this game

[indigo falcon]

oh right, so what platform are you playing on anyways? @stark scarab

[stark scarab]

im on PC

Steam

[indigo falcon]

ok, filed away for future use, because I can look up the controls for that easy enough. thanks!

[snow bear]

I'm also on PC/Steam

[cobalt scaffold]

I mean, I get it, that we are currently testing stuff for Light No Fire, and I don´t complain about it. But heck, it´s mostly not the bugs I´m mad about, it´s the missing descriptions, what Hello Games wants us to do. Usually you can finish missions following your interests, now I have to make them in a specific row but are not informed about that. Also I found shards very early on but they didn´t count, cause I did not activate the mission for them. Then Hello Games should explain these things in the log. I mean, that is, why there is a mission log in a game: for explanations.

[indigo falcon]

radiant shards, if you collect them earlier, it should not matter whether the milestone is highlighted or not

same for storm crystals, as long as you hrvest them from the planet (finding them in a derelict won't work)

[snow bear]

The radiant shards didn't count? That's odd. I brought 20 with me into the expedition and the milestone recognized them even without the milestone selected

[cobalt scaffold]

Yes, it should not but it does.

[indigo falcon]

many players report jus bringing them in from main save and milestone completes immediately, so yep another bug

I'm pretty sure I did them out of order once I had the hazmats and it was ok (not 100% sure though)

[cobalt scaffold]

To be honest, the whole expedition feels like one youngling had to put a lot of content together without any sense of why and how. It feels like an expedition made without love. And the one beforehand was a really nice one, even with the bugs we had - and have - with corvettes.

[indigo falcon]

some expeditions have been very thin on the nrrative, I have just gotten used to that being the way things are. I could wish for better... shrug. did it, done, reported a bug (one of many), that's that

oh and uh, obligatory

[cobalt scaffold]

I miss any kind of "storytelling", if that word makes sense here. But heck, some kind of bringing things together in a way, that would feel "immersive"... and I would be happy.

I think the top of my list for narrative would have to be Leviathan

and that's a long ways back in the list

[snow bear]

I haven't played for that long in the scheme of a game existing since 2016, but my favourite expedition narratively was the one with the jellyfish anomalies, I forgot its name

[cobalt scaffold]

Oh yes, back then they did it way better. However, I hope I can finish this thing and then return to my savegame again, where I can spend my time with things I like to do. And yeah, I am one of the few, who doesn´t mind corvette gameplay at all. I like them but I won´t use them until they work way better than they do right now.

[indigo falcon]

the Cursed maybe?

[snow bear]

yup that one

[hazy sparrow]

I started the expedition from my main save. If I claim an expedition reward from the quicksilver terminal, will I be able to claim it again once I end the expedition and am back on my main save?

[indigo falcon]

yes you will

[swift heath]

Where can I find an infested planet for the expedition

[indigo falcon]

rend 3 system, planet "giumf", ignore the game telling you there are no worm babies there. there are!

[swift heath]

Kk

[stark scarab]

so okay another question- i need the debris rangefinder, but i can't tell what on this screen i need to craft in order to get the rangefinder

i dont know why certain items are listed twice, or what it means when theyre greyed out

[indigo falcon]

the debris rangefinder needs a solar mirror, a quantum computer anda metal plate (first row belowthe item)

[stark scarab]

Thank you. can i craft those?

[snow bear]

for solar mirror you need gold, silver, chromatic metal

the greyed out ness probably means you don't have enough of that item

[indigo falcon]

now you don't have all the materials for a solar mirror, nor for a quantum computer (i tneeds chrom metal you don't have enough of)

[stark scarab]

okay that makes sense

[indigo falcon]

so you gotta godeal with that first

note that you can buy microprocessors at the space station trade terminals, save you some resource gathering if you're ok for units

if you're not, the yellow loot boxes in the space station rooms with th teleporters can give items to sell part of the time

(keep the warp hypercores though, if you get those)

[stark scarab]

how do i know how many units i have?

[snow bear]

for your information for future expeditions: starting it from the main save means you can take resources from there into the expedition, like basic survival resources and also expedition specifically useful items, like here the quantum computers / solar mirrors
makes things significantly faster

[snow bear]

open inventory or esc menu, top left

[indigo falcon]

open your inventory, look at the top, see nanites, units, quicksilver

[stark scarab]

oh cool, thank you

[stark scarab]

so i need to find a planet with chromatic metal?

[snow bear]

no, chromatic metal refines from any stellar metal

copper, indium, or quartzite for example

[stark scarab]

okay thank you

[snow bear]

any planet has it, which kind depends on the star colour

[indigo falcon]

you got the personal refiner installed at this point, no?

[stark scarab]

yes i know i got that

[indigo falcon]

ok then you're good to go to refine things

[stark scarab]

theres not another way to get the new corvette parts right? like only through the expedition?

[indigo falcon]

well, or save editing (steam players can do that)

[stark scarab]

does that cost anything? or do you have a link for it?

im not gonna pester yall through every step of this expedition and im not getting it

[indigo falcon]

it's free

I'm on the wrong platform to use it (ps5) but someone in here probably has th elink handy, or I can google for it

https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor not sure if it's current to the latest patch or not

[stark scarab]

thank you!

[snow bear]

https://nomansapp.com/
I've used this to get past expedition rewards

it has a monthly limit for free users but works

[indigo falcon]

https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor/issues/1266

so the save editor is something that could be used later on when it's current again

the delivery bot (the app) is run by people in the Creative Hub discord and you could drop in there if you want to know more about howit works, theres a link at the bottom of that web page for it

[stark scarab]

thanks, ill see if i can figure out that app

[spark tartan]

Going to work on finishing Breach, but still in Phase 1. No NPCs, so is there any way to sell/turn-in tech modules for nanites?

[warm violet]

Question for breach expedition where can I find an anonymous floating creature?

[faint mesa]

Precisely, no way. Get nanites by refining or scanning fauna

[snow bear]

With the milestone selected, it should lead you to a system where there is one
Alternatively there is one on the Gashi 69/B4 moon in Nasuda-Wase Timestamp V system

[warm violet]

Oh, I haven’t gone to timestamp five yet. I’ll start making my way there now.

Also, I searched that system that it told me to go to, and the one that I found was too fast

[spark tartan]

Thanks. Was more a question about what to do with the modules I'm collecting that I don't need/want.

[snow bear]

if you found one then just go back to there

use the quick menu to drop creature pellets on the ground

lure it down

[warm violet]

Yeah, I did that

[faint mesa]

Oh. Can install them, then dismantle for resources

[warm violet]

It didn’t stop for me

[snow bear]

Well, all the anomalous floaters will be hard to catch if you chase them

No matter if on the planet you found or in rdv 5

keep dropping bait near the critters, they should come down

[warm violet]

Ok one other thing that I should ask, though is, should I be looking for creatures that are a bunch of blue points of light orbiting central one

[snow bear]

Creatures are procedurally generated so I don't recognize that description. Screenshot?

[warm violet]

Yeah, sure I’ll go into my main save real quick

[swift heath]

I can't find a system with an infected planet

Im trying to finish the purge hubgering tendrils milestone

[warm violet]

They look like this

[snow bear]

Tendrils can be completed on Timestamp III planet, Giumf VII (Kobaya-Odgo XIV system), even though the mission tooltip says there's no infested planets in the system.

[warm violet]

In first galaxy portal glyphs are

[snow bear]

so long as the quest says you're on the right planet they should do

[warm violet]

But it’s not giving me the glyphs

OK

[snow bear]

what do you need glyphs for?

[indigo falcon]

here's what they look like #nms-expedition message

[haughty atlas]

Can I sell tech for nanites during this expedition?

[indigo falcon]

nope, no one to sell them to

[spark tartan]

OK. I'm really lousy at building ships. Two questions: 1) How do you build the most very basic of Corvettes to meet the Breach requirement and, 2) Do I have to use that ship at any future part in the expedition (using the ship I brought in)?

[snow bear]

2. you will need your corvette for a milestone per phase, as you will need to spacewalk for it

[indigo falcon]

place the two landing gear, thehab, the reactor on top, the weapon somewhere on that too, the landing bay to the back, the cockpit to the front, the thruster off the side

[spark tartan]

OK. Thanks!

[indigo falcon]

you literally just to the minimum to be able to save and use the thing

upper right in the screen will tell you if you left anything off

[atomic wolf]

How do I build the Nautilon Platform? I'm not seeing it in the build menu

[indigo falcon]

it should be under the portable items tab I think

you're looking for a geobay-like thing

[warm gyro]

I tried an Exp> Breach, on a main save. When it finished, I clicked on finish. The space station is still broken. Do I have to do the anomoly first now before it goes back to normal?

tyvm

[thick umbra]

dont forget to store everything you want to take over in your exosuit

@warm gyro
#nms-questions message

[dense latch]

@atomic wolf also don't forget you need to be underwater when you open the build menu and aim at the surface of the water, took me a bit to figure that out.

[sick gazelle]

Hey y'all, what's someone to do if they entirely miss an expedition? Asking for a friend

[faint mesa]

Wait for the reruns by the end of the year

[warm gyro]

question. Is there a way to tie my corvette cargo containers into ship, inv, so it shows when I sell stuff at the space station?>I have 3 built fossil skelletons but do I have to go to ship andput them in my inv ?

Oh, thanks, I loaded up te thingie before I started to grab when I do the anomaly

At the station in anomaly correct?

[thick umbra]

Yes in the anomaly ..not sure about your other question

[atomic wolf]

Yeah I figured it out, had to swim down quite a bit for the Nautilus to even appear in the Build Menu, I thought I hadn't unlocked it.

[warm gyro]

Thanks Musashi. Like if I am at space station. Trader or ship pilot doing a trade. I only ever see my Inv and my ship Inv. Nothing shows for the 2 cargos I have on my corvette which are full of plunder lol

[remote thunder]

in this case, if you warp out and back in, it should reupdate the system, it wont necessarily be abandoned

[remote thunder]

yeah, dont think there's a way for that

need to take items out first into suit

[warm gyro]

Thanks for the answer, but when I loaded back into the game just now the space station was regular ss.

[remote thunder]

yeah, just needs like a restart or warp out and back in to update

[haughty atlas]

Can we craft the Aeron parts after the expedition ends? Or should I bring them with me from the expedition so I have more?

[remote thunder]

yes, after you claim them from qs shop, even if you run out, workshop build menu will just ask you for resources to build more

[warm gyro]

Oh yeah saved the best for last. I wound up getting 3 full skelatons built and I had placed the build station on the landing gear on my corvette, right at the bottom. Still there through warps and log in/out. Can I get rid of that thing?

[sick gazelle]

Wait, there's reruns? I never knew that… :0
Anyway thanks

[remote thunder]

can't delete it when you're at a planet base for example?

[warm gyro]

I`ll try again after this ss and tthe anomaly, thankee kindly

[remote thunder]

all good, feel free to ping back

[rain igloo]

finished the expedition!

it was pretty good, ||i liked the bossfight at the end||

[warm gyro]

Got it bk. Went into build C then x and x it all gone tyvm

[sharp grotto]

what.

[rain igloo]

?

[sharp grotto]

is the ||bossfight|| secret because even the tips dont say anything

[rain igloo]

i guess so

i didnt even know it would happen

until the end

[sharp grotto]

in the end, it doesnt even matter

[rain igloo]

suddenly linkin park

[sharp grotto]

nah

im the ObamA T L A S

[swift heath]

Hey so like for the "collect radiant shards" how are we supposed to do that if we dont get access to the advanced mining laser?

-# For me I have yet to be able to get it

[sharp grotto]

its easy

make the advanced mining laser

you get the recipes

lol

[swift heath]

We need wiring loom

You can only get that from trade terminals at space starions

Right?

[sharp grotto]

yeah

the trade terminals are still there

you know those stairs?

[swift heath]

Every space station I've been too doesn't have one

[sharp grotto]

from entering

go to the right stair

enter the door

[swift heath]

Yeah

[sharp grotto]

there should be a trade terminal

[swift heath]

Mk

[rain igloo]

why

[sharp grotto]

i think theres lore behind why we cant craft wiring looms

that they're so complicated to make only the korvax can, and even if you use an appearance modifier to become korvax you cant because you're not part of the hive mind and either way the appearance modifier is appearance only, you are still an anomaly.

thats my headcanon-

OHHH

IT WAS THE LAST QUEST

well milestone

same thing

is it a bug that the music plays on the second to last quest aswell

because i ngl want peak supermoon on the last quest

goes harder

||spawn of arcadia? wtf||

jellyflesh is gonna take ages 😭

[weak hamlet]

can somebody send the pinned message about finding anonymous floating companions

[snow bear]

Friends in Odd Places milestone itself leads player through galaxy map to a suitable system. Player will just need to find it by checking each planet. Alternatively, players found Gashi 69/B4 moon in Nasuda-Wase Timestamp V system to have a suitable floater. Let floaters come to you, don't chase them, keep aiming up. Also see this post for images. #nms-expedition message

[sharp grotto]

here

[weak hamlet]

thanks

[sharp grotto]

whatever

well that was quick

[gusty moss]

Hey guys just starting the expedition whats everything you think I would need to bring over to the expedition save to make things alot faster?

[indigo falcon]

yeah it's a known bug in the game for some time. whaddya gonna do

[sharp grotto]

Chromatic metal, condensed carbon, and oxygen

[snow bear]

5 solar mirrors, 5 quantum computers
16 radiant shards

[indigo falcon]

5 solar mirrors, 5 quantum computers, a lot of chrom metal, some warp cells or better yet hypercores, that would be a good start

[sharp grotto]

Also gold

Oh wait

I didnt read to make it faster

I thought to help

[gusty moss]

Mhmm ok what about the crystal sulphate I heard about about that

[snow bear]

oh yeah also crystal sulphide

[gusty moss]

Perfect 👌

Thanks guys

[snow bear]

8 crystal sulphide is the milestone

[torpid dagger]

how do you bring stuff over to the expedition save?

o.O

[indigo falcon]

to instacomplete a couple milestones, the 16 radiant shards, 8 crystal sulphides, and (if you have access to purple systems) 256 polished stone

[snow bear]

if you start it from a main save via the kiosk in the anomaly you can bring cargo and tech, limited slots

[torpid dagger]

wish i would have known that

x.x

oh well

i'm through most of it now

[heavy canopy]

Bro finding a vile brood in this flooded planet is actually hell

Btw to crush the grub do I need the gauntlet thingy?

[snow bear]

yes

[indigo falcon]

flooded planet? find another one with vile brood detected

there's several such planets on the route

[atomic wolf]

So how'd you guys get down to 1001u ocean depth? I can't seem to get past halfway down

[indigo falcon]

and you want to be on land when you crush the grub anyways

[heavy canopy]

Ty, any recommendations on where to find the anomalous floating companion in this system?

[indigo falcon]

rend 5 systemm has a planet, see pins in here for more

[heavy canopy]

I just dropped down where where the mission took me

[heavy canopy]

I browsed them a bit, but can't really see it

The pins I mean

[indigo falcon]

#nms-expedition message

[weak hamlet]

do any of the rendezvous points have gas giants

[indigo falcon]

yes, you'll go to one with a gas giant as the rend. planet

or if it isn't, it's huge and obvious, there's a milestone in that system about vsiting all of its moons.

[urban veldt]

If I end the expedition and take my corvette with me, does it bring items in the storage container?

[remote thunder]

it will not, cargo items are not merged - remember that you can use expedition terminus multiple times to bring back more than 8+24:

once expedition terminus slots are unlocked again, at that point you can add items in, back out of the terminal, save, options/return to primary, take items out, save, resume expedition - repeat as many times as you want

[gleaming sluice]

So how do I build a corvette in the expeditions?

Can I build it in the space stations in that universe or do I do it on my main save?

[remote thunder]

you're going to do it with expedition character at least once - in abandoned stations, there's still corvette workshop terminals (even though it's quite the hike, no teleporter pads)

expedition milestones rewards will provide for that - but after you get access to anomaly you could also copy in a corvette from existing character (remember, costs nanites), if you start expedition from existing save ofc

[torpid ivy]

i have completed expedition and just unlocked the purple system, but anomaly teleporter still show doesn't me access to my bases from expedition

am i being dumb?

[heady pilot]

Access to purple systems in expedition doesn't mean you get access to purple systems in your regular save even if the two are linked.

[torpid ivy]

i know, i more so meant access to my bases there

the purple systems are unlocked for me

[heady pilot]

Seems weird. Maybe the base didn't transfer from the expedition?

[indigo falcon]

did you save-exit-reload after getting access, see what that does? I wouldn't think it needed but you never know

[torpid ivy]

that'd be quite unpleasant

worth a try

will save-reload next to a portal just in case, so i could at least visit these systems

[swift heath]

What planet type am j looking for when it says to look for relic worlds?

[indigo falcon]

typically some thing with "ruin' or abandoned" in the title

[torpid ivy]

nope, nothing

if you didn't upload the base, would it mean it's gone?

[indigo falcon]

honestly I don't know

[torpid ivy]

there's nothing

currently at planet that i remember clear as day having a base there - Outiati IV, and there's no indication of me having a base there

[indigo falcon]

ugh

[remote thunder]

i'd suggest raising a bug report when you get a bit of spare time @torpid ivy

anything pops up, just ask/check the pins

[urban veldt]

I’m not imagining thing, you can’t build or edit corvettes on the Anomaly, right?

[formal cape]

you can make interior edits like building a crew berth or a refiner module, but you can't edit the corvette layout

[heady pilot]

The fact that the community mission basically skipped three stages less than a day after it had spent a week progressing like a 3rd of a stage probably means HG want to start another one soon...I'm guessing on the 7th, after the current expedition ends. The question is why they'd rush this one?

[gentle sparrow]

This one isn't very long IMO

Less than 4hrs

[heady pilot]

I was talking something else. The community mission, not the expedition. You and I have no control over how fast the community mission progresses.

[gentle sparrow]

Oh those

The community missions yea

Those go by so fast

[outer lake]

Can I transfer items from the exdepition to my main save?
Shouldnt that work somehow via the terminal at the anomaly?

[alpine saffron]

Yeah, you have to finish the Expedition though

[heady pilot]

Which probably means HG rushed them. The first two stages were far slower. And they cut the expedition time short by a week too. I think they are planning something for the 7th but no idea what. There's been no emoji drop either. I wonder why they'd cut both the expedition and community mission short on time for the 7th.

[gentle sparrow]

Probably a larger and cooler expedition

[outer lake]

I finished all milestones and claimed all rewards, but still the terminal just gives me the option to return to main save. But I cant fit any items in the boxes on the right

[gentle sparrow]

Brutal

[heady pilot]

Did you click on the big golden decal on the 6th page of the expedition page, after phase 5 milestones?

[outer lake]

Yes

What else can I try to transfer my stuff?

[light haven]

Whats an anomalous floating thing

did you accept the final banner past stage 5 in expedition?

can you post a screenshot of your expedition menu?

[signal igloo]

recheck all the rewards are accwepted that has been the only thing I've ever missed

And the titel and the space trail

the last thing I can think of is save exit restart and if that fails leave the anomaly and return - but not in that order exactly need to try a few things like that save n quit being first

and good luck - i usually fix all things going in and out of the anomaly

[light haven]

Got the mf

[outer lake]

What a legend, that in and out fixed it 😄 thanks!

[heavy merlin]

Does the expedition end on Thursday or after Thursday

[brisk quartz]

Is anyone else as miffed as I am at the lask of actual coloring on the Atlas corvette pieces?

[heady pilot]

It ends in 46 hours and 45 minutes.

[signal igloo]

it could use a bit of variety or application options - seem very dull

[light haven]

Here’s my ugly vette for the exped

Man i like building scrap buckets ngl

[gentle sparrow]

Nice

That garbage scow could probably make the kessel run in 12 parsec

[gusty moss]

I'm in big trouble I really need living glass for the expedition but got none got no Nantes for the space anonly can Someone possibly give me some to make my Atlantid drive

I'm desperate

[signal igloo]

I was under the strong impression I was given the drive prepackaged

i don't remember having to buy anything for the expdition at all

[gusty moss]

I have to craft it

It's screwed me

[signal igloo]

maybe the snitch version then

[heady pilot]

No you don't. You need to install the pre-packaged Atlantid drive from your inventory, you do NOT have to craft a new one.

[signal igloo]

it could be in the inventory other than the one you thought you were in

daz what I thought a lot of people pop the reward in the ship and don't realize it goes in ship inventory

[alpine saffron]

Yeah, the only way to get one was it being pre-packaged, afaik.

[signal igloo]

or visa versa

[gusty moss]

Thankyou I'm goanna go *** myself now

Dam I'm dum

[signal igloo]

naht dumb just excited and having fun

[gusty moss]

Yo this community rocks just got into nms a week ago

And it's more enjoyment I've had in a while

[balmy current]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

[remote thunder]

just in case this is the milestone you're doing now...

• Tendrils can be completed on Timestamp III planet, Giumf VII (Kobaya-Odgo XIV system), even though the mission tooltip says there's no infested planets in the system. Also see [this post for images](#nms-expedition message).

[light haven]

I am

Also i hate worm tentacles

Wait since when are rendezvous called timestamps

[remote thunder]

exp20

[light haven]

So since now

[remote thunder]

yep yep

[balmy current]

oh wow, the game can recognize a controller being connected after its launched now?

but the bindings are all wrong lol

[indigo falcon]

got dropped on a paradise planet, lol. all items repaired, now the autophage stuff is next

[heavy canopy]

Stage 4 legit gave me a migraine 😂

I exhausted the hyperdrive 4 times looking for a brood mother that wasn't in that giant planet that's mostly water with islands, only to end up going back there and finding it immediately after landing like 😂

I must've cruised around that planet for 30 mins looking for it bro, I hate my life

[heady pilot]

There is a brood world in the rendezvous 3 system. That one is not hard to find at all.

[tender tusk]

Check the pins as there are a lot of tips there

[heavy canopy]

You play and you learn, btw there is a way to send items back to main save, right?

Like from expedition once it's over

[heady pilot]

The juicy grubs, yeah. Most likely. But you can find them in all game modes, they're not expedition exclusive.

[heavy canopy]

Yeah ik, but like the Corvette parts I am finding/getting aren't ones I have currently

[heady pilot]

Yeah you can send those too. But the Atlas themed corvette parts you'll have to claim from the anomaly on your main save anyway if you want to craft them. The other corvette parts should take priority as normal stuff you can't craft.

[heavy canopy]

How? Will it give me the option once I am done?

Or do I have to do something fancy

[heady pilot]

Two ways, if you have one in your inventory and the blueprint unlocked you'll be able to craft more on top of the one you have, and if you don't have any in your inventory but you have the blueprint unlocked when you want to put the parts on the corvette the game will tell you what resources you need in order to craft them and you'll just make the parts out of the resources as you put them on the corvette.

[heavy canopy]

No like, I mean how do I directly send the items to my main save?
Can I reverse send them?
Like from expedition, right? I finish the expedition and all that stuff will be gone

Or can I send it back?

[bleak prawn]

at the nexus in the expidition terminus I think
