[lapis totem]

Someone who’s been playing for 10 years straight

I’m quite impressed

[misty plinth]

That's pretty cool. That's almost like spotting a unicorn in the wild.

[pastel ferry]

This week's expedition. I cannot find these hungering tendrils for the life of me. It's not on any rendezvous 3 planets. I checked so many surrounding systems as well. Am I missing something

[tender tusk]

It's on Planet Taures in the Rendezvous 3 system where it says infested in the resource list, select the mile stone and look for red diamond with a worm shape on them. You can also use the analysis visor when the milestone is selected.

See this post by bk for images on what you need to look for #nms-expedition message

[pastel ferry]

I don't see Taures

[tender tusk]

That's rendezvous 4 and you said 3; you can take the space station teleport to Rendezvous 3 take your ship down to taures and get it done or if you see another planet that says infested

[pastel ferry]

Oh ok

Thanks

I'll try to find my way back

[tender tusk]

also the station teleports will say Rendezvous 3 or the number under that system name

[pastel ferry]

That's crazy how I'm in rendezvous 4 if I didn't finish part 3.

I think it's because I collected Crystal sulfide which is part of a phase 4 mission

[tender tusk]

for the most part you can skip around, i just did a phase 3 milestone while i just finished phase 1 at the first Rendezvous system

[pastel ferry]

👀

I found Taures. Thanks very much.

Sadly I've been looking for these tendrils for the last 8 hours. 😅

[tender tusk]

check the pinned comments there are expedition tips in there as well

[pastel ferry]

Ok thanks

[slender sphinx]

where are the other trade terminal on this expedition?

[glossy flame]

They are all in space station

When you land your craft and get turned around, trade terminals are in the doorway to your left

Ps, teleport portal are on the right gang way

[slender sphinx]

i dont see any portal here

its just dead space

any spacestations on this expedition

[tender tusk]

Space stations Space stations with NPCS?

[slender sphinx]

can I sell anything in this expedition except in trade terminals?

inventory problems

[tender tusk]

You can sell most anything except for packaged tech upgrades since there are no NPC's to sell those to; you can equip them and then dismantle them to sell the part if you wish.

Once you build the corvette i'd get 6 metal plates and 2 microprocessors to build corvette inventory modules to hold items

[slender sphinx]

where to sell the items then?

i havent seen 1 trade terminal

[tender tusk]

If you don't see a minor settlement on a planet that you can sell at; Fly up to a Space Station, exit ship run to the right back, up the ramp, and there should be a terminal there.

If you run to the left back past the starship station upgrade terminal, going up the ramp there should be a teleport, exosuit station, and Multitool station.

[slender sphinx]

Ive seen it

thanks a lot

[tender tusk]

alright I'm off don't forget to

[novel helm]

Hello all

I’ve got bored of my exped save due to the befriend a floaty objective - Anyone got a way to cheese it?

[novel helm]

Thank you! (Sorry I should have checked pinned)

[misty plinth]

All good so long as you got the information you needed.

[novel hemlock]

I've tried to find this info but couldn't. Are units and nanites transferred automatically to your primary save when you end the expedition?

I ask because I have about 3m units

yay

[finite gull]

any news on next expidition?

[wraith junco]

After this one we usualy get winter break time. Next update is usualy around feb/mar

[drowsy mango]

Guys

Im doing the breach rn

And i cant find anything that i can refine into chromatic metal in the system

And i need chromatic metal for hyperdrive

Helppo

[flat sandal]

I think if you find quarzite it works as well @drowsy mango

[drowsy mango]

Will try, tysm!

[blazing fossil]

Copper cadmium emril indium and quartzite refine I’ve chromatic metal, same with their activated versions

[stone mural]

does the corvette parts stay in the cache at the spacestation if i go back to my main safe? or do i have to put it in this inveotory in anoamly

[blazing fossil]

They don’t save in the cache

[random torrent]

Toss the pellets on the ground, a few will fly down to eat em. Then nab the pet

[hot blade]

Attach them to your ship and then claim it at the anomaly on your main save

[novel helm]

Yeah I learnt this from my main save - Good trick 😄 who doesn’t want free food eh?

[snow kiln]

Hiiii! Question I seem to be stuck… I’m a the phase 3 of the expedition, and need to eliminate 3 hungering tendrils….. but can’t find a system with them in it …. Is it a bug ? Or I just need to search deeper?

Update : thank youuuu

[dim hamlet]

Are the rewards in the current redux the same as when it first released last year?

[misty plinth]

#nms-expedition message

[wanton frigate]

Not only that, the weird bug where you try to land and the autopilot keeps on going through the back of the station/anomaly and won't relinquish control is also the same! Don't count on using teleporters to go back to systems with grubs and worms...

[marble token]

hey can someone name one system where i can find hunderin tendrills ?

[remote thunder]

• Tendrils can be completed on Timestamp III planet, Taures (Miyako VI system), even though the mission tooltip says there's no infested planets in the system. Also see [this post for images](#nms-expedition message).
  remember to check the pins

[jagged sedge]

Man ... I tried to put some better thrusters on my corvette, now it's UGLY

[stark hound]

How on earth do I locate the hungering tendrils

[blazing fossil]

Look two messages above yours

[stark hound]

Once I’m on that planet how do I find them

[blazing fossil]

Click the link, look at the pictures, they will show the icon on your visor

[marble token]

man i cant find a doom boiling planet

[remote thunder]

we literally gave you a system and a planet that's suitable for that milestone in exp20 redux, forget the guide for the original run of exp20

[marble token]

yea but when i am myself never was there i cant hardly find it and not teleport there and i am not anround where i am is no doom boiling planet

[remote thunder]

goto a teleporter, filter by space stations, screenshot

[warm gyro]

Any corvette we build will always be C class?

Initial one of Exp I mean

[remote thunder]

yeah, they always start at c-class

[warm gyro]

Thankee

[calm ember]

Is it just me or does the Redux for Breach just... Not hit the same?

[tender tusk]

There are less bugs which is good because it was constant in here due to that

[remote thunder]

personally i've done every expedition and every redux there's been so far, and reduxes never hit the same

that's expected i think

[glossy flame]

Maybe because the novelty wore off from the original?

[remote thunder]

yep, i'd say so

plus, corvettes arent new for many anymore

[wanton frigate]

Yeah, and this is the end of a hectic redux season. The resources needed for the expedition scanner are a pain in the arse if you're rushing the milestones, the rewards aren't spectacular and clearing a derelict is always going to eat your time.
It doesn't help that the goals of Breach are all over the place. Why are we fishing and assembling skeletons? Breach was like a greatest hits of the year the first time round, but now it's compounded by the short runs.

I have a feeling, by the way, that landing difficulties in stations are related to things stuck to the bottom of the ship impeding landing. Started for me in phase 5 both times, and both times I had fossil assembly points with partial skeletons that stuck out at weird angles and seemed to float around the ship when in space.... Will do some testing tomorrow

[tender tusk]

Skeletons are known issues for weird things happening on corvettes especially landing them; pretty sure it's been community reported not sure if HG fixed it yet

[tender tusk]

One weird thing I'm not seeing in Breach Redux is the Base diamonds or comm balls in the sky when on planet; I see player's bases in the teleport list but that's it.

I wonder if the harassment that was done during corvette redux forced HG to do something or disable something server side

[wintry void]

Its also supposed to be abandoned mode, maybe they did to make you feel alone.

[prisma tundra]

I think some of them are on par, but yeah, most reduxes aren't quite the same

[prisma tundra]

I forgor it was abandoned mode and assumed I'd be able to do the weekend nexus mission in this expedition, but apparently not, oh well

[slate flax]

So redux expeditions give the same rewards but not the same experience?

[wet sierra]

• is this water safe in phase 2

[prisma tundra]

it depends on the redux, the beachhead redux had various remixed rewards from other expeditions besides beachhead

[prisma tundra]

wdym? all water is safe, deep water will need more frequent life support & hazard protection recharging tho (& ideally the pressure upgrade installed)

[tender tusk]

For Corvette and Breach Redux the rewards are the same

[wet sierra]

lol I'm just nervous to tackle it 🤣

[glossy flame]

Water is just environmental hazard under a different name

[prisma tundra]

that does depend on how deep you go, but yeah, true

[wet sierra]

yeah I'm trying to get the crystal sulphide but this water MURKY

[glossy flame]

Visor helps a lot with finding your way in water

[prisma tundra]

understandable, I don't mind deep water stuff but I know some people don't like it, it won't kill you like an extreme storm would at least

[wet sierra]

craftable or is it just the F key?

[glossy flame]

It's the F key

[wet sierra]

yea if it wasnt a straight drop from the land off a cliff i might be ok

[prisma tundra]

same visor used to scan things, you'll be able to see icons labeled crystal sulphide, armored clam (living pearls inside), etc

[wet sierra]

yeah, i just wasnt sure if they meant a different thing or not

[slate flax]

Is it common nms to release redux expeditions for older expeditions prior 2023?

[prisma tundra]

no, beachhead was an exception, the typical format as it's been for like 4 ish years has been reduxes of the year's expeditions, for example, this time last year was finishing up the 2024 reduxes of expeditions that happened in 2024, namely Omega, Adrift, Liquidators, Aquarius, & Cursed expeditions (numbers 12-16)

tho beachhead does seem to return more often than other, older expeditions (the beachhead redux this time around is the 3rd time iirc that it's been run)

[slate flax]

Ok, thx man

There isn't other way to get expeditions rewards for the older expeditions, right?

[glossy flame]

Not officially, there are offline custom expeditions that you can use to avail yourself of those experience and rewards

If you are on PC

[slate flax]

That's sounds cool

[tender tusk]

https://cwmonkey.github.io/nms-expeditions/

[polar inlet]

滑稽

[slate flax]

Of what I've read I can play all expeditions and rewards will be saved in my online account when I enter online mode

[brittle maple]

Why am I not able to construct the Nautilus chamber

Even though I'm underwater and have all the materials

[prisma tundra]

it's misleading when it says underwater, it's actually built on the water surface

[prisma tundra]

this is an english only server

[prisma tundra]

what frostnburn said, you can also just save edit or similar to get the rewards themselves

[tender tusk]

You may be too close to your corvette to build it also you need 100 oxygen, 90 magnetized ferrite and 3 di-hydrogen jellys to build the Nautlion platform

[prisma tundra]

he already said he has the materials, I think it's more that he's fully underwater not at the water surface cause the game says to build underwater but it's actually build on water surface

[brittle maple]

Why am I not able to meet my friend and invite him to a group in the expedition?

Is it not allowed?

[prisma tundra]

is he in the expedition as well? you both have to be in the expedition to join off of one another

[brittle maple]

Yea he is

[prisma tundra]

it's allowed, if both of you are in expedition

[brittle maple]

We tried to go to the same space station but we could not see each other

[prisma tundra]

could be your network settings then

[brittle maple]

I'm able to see other players though

[prisma tundra]

oh, that's cause you're randomly placed in different "instances", try actually joining from him (or him joining from you) using the "join friends" on the main menu

[prisma tundra]

so you should then be able to use the main menu to join each other, it's random whether you see each other at the anomaly or space stations

[brittle maple]

I tried that once, will try again

Yep we don't see each other

Again

[prisma tundra]

are you loading in and seeing that you're part of the same group? as in, both your names with colors assigned to you show up on the side of the screen, cause if you still don't see each other but are in a group, then it's desync and you both need to save, quit, and relaunch the game, if you aren't actually forming a group to join each other, then you won't see each other because you never formed a group & it's not a guaranteed chance that you'd find each other on a space station or the anomaly randomly

[brittle maple]

Yea we are in the same group

[prisma tundra]

ok, then it's likely desync issues

[brittle maple]

But I don't see his color anywhere on the map

Ok, let us try restarting

[brittle maple]

@rich creek

[prisma tundra]

did you make sure both you & your friend have "show ship maker" and "show on foot marker" set to group & friends or anyone?

[brittle maple]

Yea it always worked outside the expedition

[prisma tundra]

yeah, good idea to try that first then

[prisma tundra]

expeditions can do funky things and cause desync more easily tbf

[brittle maple]

Yea now see each others icon

But we don't see each other

[prisma tundra]

hmm, weird, might still be desynced or you haven't loaded in completely, idk which

[brittle maple]

We see in nearby players list as well

Nevermind it works now

After multiple restarts

[prisma tundra]

alright, glad it's fixed now, idk what the problem was, but I bet it was some weird expedition desync or something

[brittle maple]

Guys do you know the ocean planet name

In phase 2 rendezvous

[prisma tundra]

[tender tusk]

Mewor Delta if i remember correctly

[brittle maple]

Thank you

[shut torrent]

Pls somebody answer

[novel helm]

Ah I created a new save for expedition and it seems I cant transfer anything to my main save because of that - Am I understanding this right?

[shut torrent]

How to survey gas giants??

[wintry void]

survey gas giants?

for the objective?

[shut torrent]

Yes visit all the moons of a gas giant

What is that mean

[wraith junco]

Land on each moon

[shut torrent]

Each moon ? What that mean

Find 5 gas giant planets!

?

I am in 1 saying 0/5

Can we private message

[wintry void]

there are 5 moons surrounding a gas giant, you have to land on each one

[shut torrent]

Land with my plane?

[wintry void]

yes

[shut torrent]

Corvette not too big?

[wintry void]

nope

land and exit ship

[shut torrent]

Landing not clear

I am not sure if i found gas giant then

[wintry void]

then it should complete that planet, then repeat on 4 more

[shut torrent]

Can i send u picture

5 planets 5 tomes to land?

[novel helm]

Well that’s a lesson learnt then, I thought I could transfer but I guess I should have done it on the terminal on main save ><

[misty plinth]

You can't transfer units or nanites from the expedition to your main save but using another player as a transfer agent you could transfer resources and unopened tech.

[novel helm]

Not to worry, I’ll go again on my main save 😅

[misty plinth]

Plenty of time - good luck.

[novel helm]

Thank you ❤️

[shut torrent]

I cNt land on gas giant

[misty plinth]

Go ahead and share your screenshot - as long as it's expedition related you're OK.

[wintry void]

you need a purple star system that says Gas Giant in the description like this on the dalaxy map

[shut torrent]

I am in here

I just cant land on that pieces

[wintry void]

When you enter it will look like this

you need to land on the 5x small planets

[shut torrent]

Alright i need to go to that moons somehow

[wintry void]

you can click on it to highlight it, then look for that marker in space

[shut torrent]

I was trying to do something stupid lol

Tried to land on flying pieces in gas giant

[wintry void]

like this

[shut torrent]

I think i am going to the first

[wintry void]

you need to land and get out of ship on all 5

once you get out it should change to 1 out of 5

[shut torrent]

Working

1/5

[shut torrent]

Working thank u sooo much

[shut torrent]

Can i ask 1 more thing?

Guys after 4th phase when u go in blackhole. How you get back where u been? I need to start phase 5 but i am super far away. Do i go black hole and hope to get back where i was?

[onyx dawn]

Go to the space station

Go up the stairs on your left and there should be a room

[shut torrent]

One second

[onyx dawn]

There's a teleporter in that room

[shut torrent]

I see stairs

Ou ye i see teleporter

[finite gull]

we need a teleporter riiiight here

[shut torrent]

Where i teleport? Rendezvous 4?

[onyx dawn]

I never even knew it was there till after the expedition

[shut torrent]

@onyx dawn

[onyx dawn]

That would work

[shut torrent]

Thank u buddy

[onyx dawn]

Np

[finite gull]

you get the teleport by entering the system

which is useful

[onyx dawn]

I took the long route and used my hyper drive to get there lol

Took forever

[lapis totem]

You’re very patient

[tribal notch]

Hey peeps. Having some difficulty finding an 'infested' world that actually has worms on it. All the ones i've found that say 'Vile Brood Detected' don't seem to make the Milestone happy that I have found one.

I've squished the Larva, but just need to find some Hungering Tendrils.

[glossy flame]

Timestamp 3 planet

[tribal notch]

Oh no. I have moved on from there 🙁

[glossy flame]

You should be able to teleport back with the space station

[tribal notch]

Do you know which system it is?

[wraith junco]

Systems are in pins

[tribal notch]

Ah! I checked the pins in the #Question room but not here. Sorry 🙁

[wanton frigate]

make sure you've read the Tips pins, as the tendrils milestone mission "help" doesn't register correctly when you're on a suitable planet.

[tribal notch]

Cheers. I genuinely scoured a 'Vile Brood' planet but it didn't have a lot of landmasses so figured I just didn't luck out. But you're right, the tooltip was bugged. It finally said I was on an Infested planet when I landed on the actually names 'Infested Planet' and stood directly in front of the Titan Worm Burrow 😂

[wraith junco]

Check pins in this channel

[tribal notch]

I have done now. Cheers!

[potent yacht]

Guys, please help, I can't complete the expedition, I need 3 sea glass, I can't find the right planet, there is no depth, what should I do??

[wintry void]

Find a water planet in a purple star system. The right type are like 95% water

[potent yacht]

Dear friend, I've visited 7 purple systems, and there isn't a single deep enough water planet. Most of them are unsuitable for searching for sea glass. I haven't been able to complete one stage for 5 hours now.

[wintry void]

look for a planet with lithium on

[potent yacht]

I found it, thank you very much, you helped me a lot!

[wintry void]

np

[zenith ivy]

Guys is it normal for Phase 4 black hole mission sends you far off the course? I thought there was supposed to be 1 in the same gas giant system?

And I can see plentiful others did the same right now.

Wait, i just teleported back to the gas giant system and the black hole is there... what is going on 😓

[wanton frigate]

I found a BH in the Phase 4 system that went right to Phase 5.
if you warp in away from it, look for it on the radar, I guess?

[glossy flame]

You are supposed to go through the black hole in the same system as Timestamp 4

And black hole is not a once off thing

[novel helm]

So when it says bases go back to main save - just the computer or anything built at one?

[misty plinth]

The computer and the structures built all migrate into the main save universe.

If you build storage containers their contents do not transfer over.

[prisma tundra]

timestamp 2 system has a suitable planet for all the underwater milestones

[steady kiln]

does this work?

[novel helm]

When you say structures - power plants/extractors etc? Even if not unlocked on main?

Just curious if it’s worth building anything half decent on exp save

[misty plinth]

I just build simply in expedition and finish it up after I am done but that doesn't mean you can't build more elaborately if that's what you like.

[jolly drum]

Anyone know specifically what I have to do to get the moons to count when I visit them? I've been flying around this system for a couple hours now and it still says I'm only at 2 out of 5.

[misty plinth]

Are you getting out of your ship/corvette and stepping on them?

[severe arrow]

For me if i was in a corvette, i had to exit it and walk around the hull of the corvette while on the planet

[jolly drum]

I've done things like run around scanning things on the planet, and mining. That must not be good enough. I even set up a base computer on one of them, but I haven't been there yet apparently.

[misty plinth]

Also if you ever use a teleporter hop into your ship/corvette and back out to get it to register.

[jolly drum]

I'll see what happens if I build a base on everything in the system, and ditch the corvette and see if it helps.

[remote thunder]

it's the moons of a gas giant specifically

just to make sure that's clear

and remember, in the discoveries main view, if you dont see the mark button when you cursor over a moon, you've been to that one already

[brave echo]

Any recommendations before I begin the expedition? Got four spaces for cargo and no tech yet though I am going to check to see if I have any old jet pack upgrades I don’t use

[jolly drum]

Okay, I currently have bases on five out of five of the moons of this gas giant, but I've only apparently set foot on four of them.

[jolly drum]

I'll try it again when I log back on, I'm fixing all the damage to the crashed ship I picked up so I can use that one instead of the corvette..

It's not possible for me to get out of the ship for the spacewalks when I'm not in a corvette, is it?

[hybrid schooner]

Um I am on the phase 4 doing lunar cluster and no clue what I am doing

[remote thunder]

sorry for the late reply, but this list <#nms-expedition message>, +5 solar mirrors and 5 quantum computers, dont bring upgrade modules to sell/sus packets tech or arms for nanites

[remote thunder]

yeah, leaving seat+spacewalk requires corvette

[remote thunder]

in short, in rdv4 system, the gas giant system, there's 5 moons around the gas giant - need to visit them all. in a corvette, just dropping inside each moons atmosphere (acknowledge by notification top left) and exiting seat will be enough. watch the tooltip lower right of the screen when you're playing. also, remember that you can mark unvisited planetary bodies via Discoveries menu.

oh i see now that you had gotten an answer in #nms-questions already 🙂

[brave echo]

Don’t bring??

[remote thunder]

sus packets tech/arms to get nanites? yeah, dont, no need, since there'll be no npcs to sell modules to (abandoned universe)

[brave echo]

I just was going to bring some shield upgrades after i hopefully upgrade my corvette

No room currently

[remote thunder]

ah if it's for you to use, yeah, ofc, you can

[hollow flicker]

Expedition phase 5 rendezvous do I need to keep warping to reach location or is there another way this feels like an eternity

[glossy flame]

The black hole in timestamp 4 takes you to timestamp 5, or close to it

[hollow flicker]

Idk where that is now I warped so far following the path it selected by the expedition route

😭

[glossy flame]

You can try using space station teleporter

The correct star system should be labelled as "Rendezvous 4" under the space stations name on the teleporter lost

[hollow flicker]

Ok I'll look for it

And is that on the Space Anomaly?

[glossy flame]

There is a teleporter on the anomaly yes

But the abandoned space stations do as well

[hollow flicker]

Really I passed up like a million of them lmfao so many warping happened I almost gave up

Thank you that worked

[potent yacht]

Hello, I encountered this problem: after stage 5 in phase 4, a black hole threw me very far from the phase 5 route. I have already flown through 47 systems, and the goal is not even close. Tell me what I should do?

[glossy flame]

Go to any space station or summon your space anomaly, use the teleporter to go to the station with rendezvous 4 under its name, and jump into the black hole in that sustem

[potent yacht]

Sorry, but all my space stations are broken and you can only modify them and assemble corvettes inside.

[glossy flame]

There are still functional teleports in them, it's in one of the side rooms up stairs

It should be on the left door as you are facing towards the back of the space statoon

If you still can't find it, then just summon the space anomaly, it has a functional teleport too

[potent mountain]

I'm in the Rendezvous 4 (Gerogra-Hama) system and have done the milestones related to it and all that here but the black hole that was here when I warped in has apparently decided to no longer be in the system. Reloading hasn't seemed to bring it back.

[potent yacht]

Thank you very much, I did it, you are wonderful!

[glossy flame]

Try warping away from it and then warp back in

[potent mountain]

That was the secret sauce. Thanks.

Apparently teleporting in and out doesn't seem to work when it just up and vanishes like that.

[brittle maple]

Need to go to a planet with water for phase 4

For crystal sulphide

Any tips?

Where i can find such a planet

[glossy flame]

I did that milestone on the same planet as I did for the 800u dive

Timestamp 2 planet

[brittle maple]

Oh wild

Scary depth though

[glossy flame]

But any planet with under water fauna should be deep enough for crystal sulfide to spawn

Crystal sulfide doesn't need that deep, 800u is well beyond the point they start spawning

[brittle maple]

Guys

I can't find the black hole

In rendezvous 4

[potent mountain]

#nms-expedition message

[steady kiln]

i suggest you do that mission after the phase 5

[brittle maple]

Okay

[frozen laurel]

Go to the space station, then fly away from the back side of it (opposite side of the entrance). You should see the black hole nearby.

[brittle maple]

Ty

[hollow flicker]

Okay so I understand I'm slow at learning at this game I just completed the expedition I understand I can't take everything with me the main things I want to take is the stuff to build a good Cadillac

[potent yacht]

Sorry to be here again, but I'm stumped. In Stage 3 of Phase 5, I need to scan 5 creatures. The fauna properties show that the required creatures are both flying and diurnal, but the problem is, there's not a single soul on the planet. I waited for both night and day, reconnected to the server, and flew around the entire planet, but I still haven't found a single bird. What should I do?

[potent mountain]

It completed for me only on the rendezvous planet, just scanned 5 of anything. Fish included.

[misty plinth]

You can make multiple trips using the expedition terminal to get most of the items you want to save transferred back to your primary.

[hollow flicker]

Can you message me because I am kind of slow at this and I feel like that would be better communication please

🙏🏽

[potent yacht]

For the quest, I need creatures from this planet where I'm stuck.

[potent mountain]

Is that the best way to try and sell all the extra tech we get since there are no merchants on stations?

[misty plinth]

Read this first please.
#nms-expedition message

[potent mountain]

Yeah, Alien Menagerie? Only worked for me on the Timestamp 5 planet, the yellow oceanic one. There were like 3 or 4 bird types, plenty of fish.

[potent yacht]

Trouble is, I can't find that planet where time stamp 5 was. I'm still on the last stage, and I don't know what to do.

[misty plinth]

In phase 5 Atter 90/Z1 is the planet where it ALL happens.

[potent yacht]

Yes, that's right, I'm on it now, for about 2 hours, there's not a single living creature, and many people are writing about problems on the Internet

[misty plinth]

Do you have multiplayer enabled?

Try exiting the game. Load NMS back up - disable multiplayer - then reload the save. See if that fixes it for you.

You can enable multiplayer later if you like but in the expedition it can sometimes cause issues.

[potent yacht]

Okay, I'll try now

[potent yacht]

I just can't believe the creatures appeared. I just turned off online mode. I'm incredibly grateful to you, thank you! But why the player needs such manipulations and how they should intuitively understand this is really hard.

[austere trench]

im in phase 3 but i am unable to find the tendrils

Remember to

[spiral dirge]

Question, I had my multiplayer disabled and I still got the fire Arcadia shiplog bug, what do I do? Do I tried relogging it didn’t work. Do I have to redo it again?

[misty plinth]

If you come up with a solution would you post it here please.

[shut torrent]

Can u?

I finished expedition but didnt transfer stuff yet

[glossy flame]

Yes

You can only transfer from main to expedition once, but you have no limit for the other way round

I'm currently at the anamoly on breach expedition final phase none of the necessary seem to have loaded it's just empty

[glossy flame]

The Anomaly, just like rest of the universe, doesn't have any NPCs in the Breach expedition, it's in abandoned

[copper thorn]

I’m stuck looking for tendrils any help as I forgot to get the space station for stamp 3

[wraith junco]

Check if there is any player base in rdv3 from space station teleport ui.

[copper thorn]

Nope just checked only 2

[wintry void]

or goto discovery page, find the system and make a wp

[wraith junco]

Rdv system name is also in pins if u forgot what its called

[fading cipher]

What expedition we on

[glossy flame]

[fickle topaz]

guys tell me somthing can i do expedition with friends?

please?

[tight lynx]

Is there tendrils planet near timestamp 3

Ah found it

[solid elm]

can someone help i cant find the galaxy with friends in odd places

[remote thunder]

• 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 Diaueh Tau and Adoriset moons in Gerogra-Hama Timestamp IV 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).

[solid elm]

it says this but i land and it says not here???

[violet kestrel]

Gotta find the little wisp things, that’s what I did

[solid elm]

wdym?

[violet kestrel]

They are literally little floating things that scan as animals

But when you land on a planet that has them it’ll say it

[remote thunder]

Player will just need to find it by checking each planet.

[solid elm]

can it be any of them

[remote thunder]

see image above

one of those works

[solid elm]

like i can pick any?

[remote thunder]

it needs to be an anomalous flyer

[solid elm]

so it has to be the blob thing?

[remote thunder]

the blob thing?

[solid elm]

in the top right

[violet kestrel]

It just gotta look crazy and float around essentially

[solid elm]

what one??????

[remote thunder]

that image has 4 diff kinds of anomalous flyer, any of those would work

[solid elm]

istg ive seen like 60

[remote thunder]

e.g. in rdv 4 system

you either find the planet - go and land on planets to check what fauna they have - if they dont have any flying species in discoveries list, then you just move on until you find the planet in that system the tooltip is "thinking of"

or

you goto one of the planets/moons people have already confirmed to have anomalous flyers and wait for it to spawn and adopt it

[remote thunder]

Let floaters come to you, don't chase them, keep aiming up.
some players also report that throwing a creature pellet on the ground also works and they fly down

these would also work for example (this was some planet milestone sent me to, that i followed to see if it wasn't bugged)

[solid elm]

why does it say that theres like 5 planets but i can always only find 4?

[remote thunder]

remember that you can cursor over an undiscovered planet in the discoveries main system view, to get a HUD marker that points it out

[solid elm]

found the slinky one

[remote thunder]

(after discovered, we can still mark a body, but has to be done from individual view)

[solid elm]

I DID IT

FINALLY

[ashen shore]

Was the ost that plays during the beginning of the expedition and whenever encoutering the arcadia released somewhere? It sounds great, but I wasn't able to find it anywhere so far...

[tender tusk]

Look up laced up records on bandcamp since they have released two soundtracks for No Mans Sky and you can sample them their but many music tracks are unreleased and you might be able to find NMS playslists on youtube to sift through

[ashen shore]

Their album is also on Spotify and YTM I think, maybe there's more on bandwagon I'll have to look it up, but the Arcadia Song was released with the Breach Expedition which happened after their album released, so I don't have high hopes there tbh.

NVM

I must have skipped over it, it's there (recursive simulation)!

[stark hound]

Do I need to be in deep water for the jellyflesh quest

[proven moat]

hmm maybe I shouldn't wait until the last possible minute to do the expedition this time

[ashen shore]

When do we get access to the anomaly in breach?

[proven moat]

That's not the same song as the one that plays after you initialize in Breach Redux, was it? I think this one has some original songs.

[proven moat]

It should be after you warp once, I think it's like that in all expeditions (at least recent ones?)

[ashen shore]

It also plays during the start for breach i think, just not immediately. In any case it's always there when one encounters the arcadia, which was the song i was looking for.

[proven moat]

I'll pay attention to it, I captured the one in the beginning so I can compare

[ashen shore]

Thx

[proven moat]

Np! I'm big on soundtracks, and I hope the song will be available if it isn't already

[solid elm]

if i complete breach on a fresh save from the main menu do i get it on my other saves?

[proven moat]

The account-wide unlocks will be available from the Quicksilver vendor, but you can't carry the items back. The expedition save turns into a regular save, but a separate one.

[solid elm]

but so i can still use the parts on my other main save?

[remote thunder]

the aeron parts, yes

[solid elm]

ah good

[remote thunder]

all these rewards will be unlocked account wide, like Fats said

[solid elm]

are they good?

[proven moat]

do these become craftable? I never quite checked

[stark hound]

I just finished and it said I got plans forthe aeron wing module where do I see/construct that

[remote thunder]

yep, if you run out, they'll still be available in the workshop build menu, and crafting more will just need normal resources

[proven moat]

ah right, @solid elm it looks like you will need to craft them again (as opposed to carrying the actual items to your main save) but this shouldn't be troublesome

[remote thunder]

aeron wing is a corvette part, you'd goto corvette workshop and modify corvette, find it in the build menu. if you're back in a diff save, need to claim it from anomaly/quicksilver shop/collect expedition rewards

[proven moat]

thanks!

[hollow flicker]

The tainted metal salvaged scrap do I build with it or sell ?

[wanton frigate]

Depends, is the salvage guy who takes it as payment selling anything you want?

[solid elm]

how do i?

do i have to click craft more

how do i craft more aeron parts without having one in the first place?

like i have them but if i lose them can i make more?

wait i figured it out

also the parts are sick

[odd topaz]

yo that looks SICK

[solid elm]

ty its my first one with the new parts i just used the corvette basic pack thingy you get while doing the expedition

[solid elm]

any improvements?

[midnight finch]

Help!! Hey all I’m stuck on my first expedition (Breach). I missed the system with the Titan Worm Burrows. Now I can’t find what system was rendezvous 3. Anyone know the system name? Thanks

[glossy flame]

That systems space station has a Rendezvous 3 written under its name in the teleport destination

||3 is Miyako||

[midnight finch]

Ok. Thanks

[barren hedge]

Is it just me or is the black hole part of expidition 20 broken? It won't bring me anywhere and lets me fly straight through. The quest won't complete either.

The one in this system

[glossy flame]

Try reloading the save, if that doesn't fix it, restart the game

[barren hedge]

I did that already

[glossy flame]

Did you try to fly through it with your ship?

If you did, try flying through it with your character via space walking

[barren hedge]

I flew through it a few times with my character, once with my ship then I reloaded the save then tried again

ahh wait I think I found the issue, I disabled this mod and it started working again https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2007?tab=description

[glossy flame]

Glad it worked

[ashen violet]

So I'm 40 hours in, only just finished the Artemis questline. Is it a good time to get into Expeditions? Do they end when the time runs out?

[misty plinth]

I would think you have enough basic knowledge by now to handle an expedition.

The expedition will end at the specified time for it's conclusion.

Keep in mind there are pinned messages up top that answer many questions players have for expedition 20.

[ashen violet]

Thanks. Didn't want to jump into something too much further ahead and then screw up my primary progress.

The pin seems to have a lot of spoilers

Would I miss out on a lot if I tried to rawdog it? Or is there a chance I won't finish in time

[misty plinth]

If you stay on track it shouldn't take you more than a day to finish.

[ashen violet]

Oh! I assumed it was an open ended thing like the actual game

[glossy flame]

You can raw dog it, the milestones themselves would mostly spoil anyway since you can do most of them out of order

[ashen violet]

The description in the Nexus made it sound endless and in parallel to the main game

[ashen violet]

I've kind of played the game a little out of order. Explored and claimed a bunch of distressed ships and sentinel ones, cleared lots of downed frigates, made a really ugly corvette, and now I'm going back and doing the base building questline

Money feels a little trivial at where I am in the game because of that

[misty plinth]

Think of it as a "pocket" save - if you start from the terminal it creates a parallel experience open until the expedition ends.

[ashen violet]

So you can jump back and forth and they're completely separate instances?

[misty plinth]

Yes - until they merge again when the expedition is over. Then the expedition save is no more.

[ashen violet]

Got it, thank you!

[main dawn]

How long would you guys say it would take to finish this expedition

I have not started yet

I started the Corvette expedition when there was 4 days left from scratch and i had 1 day left when i finished

[wraith junco]

5-6h

[languid siren]

3-4 if u know what to do fast run it

[wraith junco]

Probably under 3 if u do it with guides

[fiery lava]

What would happen if one keeps their fresh save of this expedition? Do we keep the access to purple systems? What happens to the questlines like the Artemis one and especially Stellar Multitudes?

[glossy flame]

There is no artemis or autophage quest in this expedition, because it takes place in abandoned mode

[fiery lava]

I mean once you're finished and it's been converted to a normal save.

[glossy flame]

It should still remain in abandoned mode

[wraith junco]

Im not so sure.

[fiery lava]

Is that really so? Oh wow, I've been debating about using it for my new start because of the unique blueprint

[glossy flame]

I'll report back on this later, I was planning to do exactly this

[fiery lava]

But I've also read somewhere that every expedition save apparently gets converted to a normal standard one after completion, so I thought of doing this.

[wraith junco]

Breach only has debrie finder unique bp

U can get it from other players i think

[fiery lava]

I'm aware, Cursed would have been a better choice to keep but I'll take what I get.

[glossy flame]

I think debris finder is not kept after the expedition is converted to normal save

[wraith junco]

bp are kept i u started from new save from what know

Thats how pepole got singularity engine bp on normal saves etc.

[fiery lava]

Yeah, I've already looked around for other people talking about this in order to ask for one, there was one person who said that they can still craft the debris finder on their original expedition save.

The same has been said about the Elixirs from Cursed, so I don't think it would be different here. If the bp is unlocked via milestones, it should stick around as far as I understand.

[glossy flame]

I know stuff like Orbital uplinks are kept, I just have a feeling somewhere I read that debris finder was an exception

Anyway, no real benefit to speculating, I was planning to start a new save on expedition, I will report back when I get through it

[wraith junco]

Cant transfer them from expedition terminal to main save thats for sure

I tried it .

[fiery lava]

I really want the Cursed elixirs the most tbh, sucks that they aren't obtainable legitimately anymore. The quicksilver one would be really nice to have.

[wraith junco]

They are giftable . Ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[glossy flame]

Purple stars are revealed from the start on abandoned mode

(Source: I just started a new abandoned mode save, I just made it into space, first thing that happened when I opened the galaxy map was the purple stars lighting up)

[fiery lava]

I want the bp's myself lol, I'd go into space witch mode if I had them

[wraith junco]

Cant get all the bp without save editing.

[fiery lava]

Is the service bot actually save editing? One doesn't have to go mess with the files manually when using that one, no?

[wraith junco]

Idk if it unlocks the bp for u . Or only delivers desired item

Never tried it.

[fiery lava]

if it does it'd be a grayzone I'd be willing to tap into eventually, I just want to keep my save mostly legit so save editing is something I wanna avoid.

I'm only willing to mod QoL stuff really.

[wraith junco]

Im completionist type so if it does unlock blueprint then i will be tempted to use it.

[fiery lava]

Yeah I understand that, but before I do such things I'll have to 100% the content first, including replaying the expeditions I've missed.

Which I would have to mod as well ig, but I could still at least properly replay them instead of just ''cheating" in the rewards for myself.

[remote thunder]

no, to keep it short, bot triggers the actual relevant expedition reward id

as if player had claimed it

[fiery lava]

Oh so in a way it actually is "cleaner" then, thanks for the response. This helps a lot.

The reason I'm so conflicted about using the Breach save as a new entry is because of what might happen to the questlines and their outcomes.

Like I always make sure to save Artemis in their Quest, and if expeditions with abandoned mode/purple stars automatically skip stellar multitudes, I assume they might do the same with the other story missions.

And I have no idea what's the default outcome chosen for the Artemis Quest then, whether they've been uploaded or left to die.

Oh right and Apollo too, they can also die during the Artemis quest from what i've gathered.

Having no control over these outcomes could be a dealbreaker for me.

[remote thunder]

I assume they might do the same with the other story missions.
no, when you finish and convert, it'll become a regular, normal mode save, started at the end of the awakenings mission, with the exception that purples are already unlocked, but that doesn't take away the ability to do the quest - in short, the artemis choice isn't made for you already

[glossy flame]

that's a bummer

[fiery lava]

Coolio then, but does this also apply to Stellar Multitudes and all of the Autophage content?

[remote thunder]

it applies to everything normal mode

in short, that expedition save will no longer be an expedition save, but a normal mode save

[fiery lava]

Aight. That‘s just gonna make the scene of unlocking purple systems a bit akward then ig.

[remote thunder]

they're already unlocked, there'll just be a quest

[fiery lava]

I suppose it could have been a nice way to start new without redoing the quests again, but for me the choices matter so its alright

[fiery lava]

Stellar Multitudes main goal is unlocking them though, no? But knowing the devs, they probably didn‘t adjust it specifically for this case.

[remote thunder]

well, sure, but - you having them unlocked wont break the quest

[fiery lava]

Yeah but it might break my immersion just a tad bit then, but i guess I can deal with that.

[silver spruce]

Why is everyone looking for blueprints of in-expedition items? Is it merely for "completionist extraordinaire" or those are somehow useful in the main game?

(honest question, not trying to throw shade on anything)

[misty plinth]

Some of the expedition blueprints have been very useful. Take for instance the Orbital Uplink. A useful tool to help if you're stuck or save you time from having to fly back to the space station.

[fiery lava]

This, and the Quicksilver elixir from the Cursed can be used to easily locate Portals.

Personally I also just want to have a copy of everything I can get my hands on, my character is sorta a scientist and trader so I wanna study the Universe to the fullest.

[silver spruce]

Oh, okay.
I guess I'll have to edit them in then once I replay each respective expedition :)

[faint olive]

Kissy kissy meow meow kissy kissy meow meow meow

[sand bluff]

help i cant figure out how to get the hyperdrive blueprint... 😭

[wraith junco]

Check tasks in expedition tab

One should give u it as reward

[sand bluff]

it was supposed to it looks like, but when i click on my starship, theres nothing i can add

[wraith junco]

Check if u have the reward tech packed somewhere

[sand bluff]

nothing...

and i am literally on a different planet than i started, so i should have completed the milestone

oh

nvm

im an idiot

didnt realize u had to claim the rewards.... 😭

[still ferry]

is it worth doing the current expedition rn

i have absolutely no idea how they work LOL

[misty plinth]

If you've never done one and have more than a passing interest in running one then yes this one is worth it. We have no idea yet when the next opportunity for one will present itself.

So run this one while you still can.

[still ferry]

what're the rewards?

Expedition Info

Game mode explained:

Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.

To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means, including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players ( ) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

[hazy jungle]

I only recently came back to the game. Tried /L to talk to local players during the current expedition but it just came out 'kzzkt'. Is this an expedition thing, or a settings thing?

[outer lotus]

AFAIK this is also currently the only expedition not in various save editors. So it is also worth it for that.

[hazy jungle]

Are we able to see other player's bases in the expedition? I haven't come across any.

[outer lotus]

Yes you can. Some are marked others aren't. I've seen at least three thus far

[still ferry]

...how am i supposed to get to rendezvous point if its a purple system?

[outer lotus]

One of the rewards in one of the tasks is a purple drive. I don't know which one off the top of my head

[still ferry]

oh, i just found it lol

[hazy jungle]

Also, it's the blueprint you get.

[outer lotus]

Several tasks reward blueprints and various other materials that you need for other tasks so you can either do the task or try and get whatever it is the normal way.

The latter is longer and more difficult but still doable

And if you don't have access to quartzite and crystallized helium in your main save grab a bunch of both and you can take it with once you've finished then make more

[still ferry]

stuff you get from expeditions can you bring back to your main save?

[remote thunder]

^ answered in #nms-questions

[glossy flame]

Dang it, confirmed, game turns to normal and NPCs immediately appear in anomaly immediately after claiming the final milestone awards

[remote thunder]

yep, wont stay abandoned

you can even see this with stations turning non abandoned in many cases

though in that case needs a reload/warp back in

heck, we've seen a system going from abandoned to uncharted

[glossy flame]

oh well

[ashen violet]

I feel guilty. Someone had a beautiful base set up at the 2nd rendezvous and I was fast clicking through the Base Computer menu and somehow reported it. The whole thing vanished.

I assumed it was a ready-made base or something for the expedition

[remote thunder]

you're good; when you report a base, it hides it from your game (turns a flag on that other user's base in your save file that says "hidden=true"), it most likely doesn't actually report it to the server, and its owner isnt going to get in trouble

[ashen violet]

I got a psn notification that it was reported and being taken seriously

Whooops

[remote thunder]

nah, it'll be fine

[still ferry]

does the blackhole you need to go through lead to the phase 5 rendezvous point?

i dont wanna go to a random galaxy without knowing if i have to go back or not

[remote thunder]

yeah, black hole in rdv4 leads to rdv5

[still ferry]

any blackhole?

[remote thunder]

no, just the black hole in rdv4

Gerogra-Hama system

[still ferry]

how can i catch the spawn of arcadia? do i need a specific bait?

[remote thunder]

you'll need Fishing Rig multitool tech installed. Try fishing near a shore. Have multiplayer disabled and the milestone selected, no need to use any bait. Be sure to have Jellyflesh selected when fishing for Child of Arcadia, and you shouldn't need lots of tries to get it. To release a fish, cursor over it in inventory while standing next to a shore.

[woven bridge]

My blackhole in rendezvous 4 disappeared. Is that a glitch?

[still ferry]

i did it :D

[ancient pier]

Mine did too, I had to jump out and back into the system to find it again

[still ferry]

everthing you unlock as phase rewards becomes permanently unlocked right? like corvette parts

[remote thunder]

sometimes it's so far away that you need to use ship cockpit radar to find it

[outer lotus]

Or hidden behind something

[woven bridge]

It was right in front of me when I first warped into the system. I decided to go to the planet first and get the rendezvous reward and when I came back the black whole wasn’t in the system anymore. I had to wrap to a new system to get one to appear

[remote thunder]

yeah, it seems that when we try to come back to it without warping out, it's always far away - it was the same in the original exp20 run as well

after a bit of pulsing, you can see that it hadn't become much more visible lol, it was really far away - at first i could barely make it out, truly, before i took that first shot

[inner mason]

Is there anyway some one could give me 250 indium accidentally traded my Corvette for a cool ship not realizing the Atlantid drive was installed and now I can't get it myself

[misty plinth]

Do you still have your starter explorer ship? If then pull the Atlantid drive off it and install it on the new ship.

[remote thunder]

@inner mason a couple options:

• ask around #nms-lfg-or-trades
• dig buried caches: they can drop indium when analyzed

[solemn bane]

Also looks like you're on PC, so you can save edit stuff into your inventory

[midnight finch]

I have completed all missions for Breach and collected all rewards. But I’m stuck on collect rewards at the Space Anomaly.

I don’t know how to finish the expedition.. anyone know what’s up?

[misty plinth]

@midnight finch There is one final BIG BADGE reward at the end you have to collect before you can manually close it out.

[midnight finch]

And where do I get that?

[misty plinth]

Lastt page of expedition after phase 5.

Shows 5 badges for each phase in a row and the BIG BADGE is just below it.

[midnight finch]

That big one? I pressed it and it gave me something. When I press it now it takes me to the second picture I posted

[misty plinth]

If they have all been collected you should be able to close the expedition out at the terminal on the anomaly if that is what you wish or you can use the options menu and return to primary.

If you return to primary then the expedition save is still there for you to return to if you like. Just use the terminal to go back to it.

[midnight finch]

Nope. It says Return to Primary Save only. And not End Expedition…I went to my main save and went to the Quick Silver Companion and found some rewards that I collected and added to my main save inventory. Them went back to expedition save.. still can’t end expedition

[misty plinth]

@midnight finch Something has not been collected. Once all milestones and phases are collected the button in the bottom left will show as Exit Expedition.

[midnight finch]

I went back and tapped all the mission/reward icons, but collected all of them already… not sure what’s left..

[glossy flame]

Did you tap on the very last milestone?

The one where it consolidate all phase milestone?

[midnight finch]

Yes the big star one. It gave me rewards. I should say that I did find one reward not collected from a milestone that I collected after I collected the last rewards from the big star. Think that bugged it?

[misty plinth]

@midnight finch I can't see how that would bug it out.

[glossy flame]

Just for the sake of science, did yoi try reloading the save?

[midnight finch]

Think I found the problem. Missed one, inventory full

[glossy flame]

Ah, there we go

[midnight finch]

Hell yeah! That worked. Thank you for the brainstorming @glossy flame @misty plinth

[gleaming musk]

I am sure others have asked so sorry, but where do I find the black hole in the gas giant system?

[tender tusk]

You can warp out of the system and back in and it should be closer or find it like this image in first person view #nms-expedition message

[gleaming musk]

thanks

Oh wrong game

[ivory mantle]

I need some help for breach/redux .. I need a planet with very deeeeeep oceans..and no the planet that the game gives me is NOT deep enough... its for that diving achievement

It should be deep enough, not just need to go to a different area on the planet

[misty plinth]

Is a brand new expedition coming soon?

[woven bridge]

That’s gnarly lol. When I looked at the galaxy map though it didn’t show the black hole in my system anymore and I forgot which direction it was in when leaving the planet lol. How long did it take you to pluse to the black hole?

Guys, I think the rendezvous planet is a bit broken

Gravitational anomaly indeed, lol

[remote thunder]

moon near giant? colliding planet? that tilt is enormous haha, been to similar locations

[marble token]

could someone help quickly to finish the milestones ?

[remote thunder]

let's go by steps:

• what milestone do you need help with rn?

[marble token]

3 one one the last so still need to do 4 and 5 nearly fully but in 4 i ramdomly finish one i dont know how

[remote thunder]

i'm sorry, that was confusing. milestone name please

[marble token]

phase 3 the last one sry my bad

[remote thunder]

• Metamorphosis can be done at multiple planets. Look for Vile Brood Detected on resource lists, then use your visor to look for Juicy Grub red icons. For example, Ieldebor Minor a in Miyako VI (Timestamp III) system would work. Interact with the grub, then cursor over it in inventory, and "Crush grub".

[marble token]

i ask for someone to play with but thxs

[remote thunder]

but what do you need help with, killing the brood mother?

[marble token]

noz for that i just like to do stuff with someone and may do milestone together and so

[remote thunder]

ah okay - then try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades as well

[marble token]

nah because it about the expedition i do it here so

[remote thunder]

yes, well, i meant that if you see the topic in #nms-lfg-or-trades , that's the channel to find others to play with, regardless of game mode.

[marble token]

oh okay i thpught because its was the expediditon and that channel was here i gonna text here

[remote thunder]

yeah, to ask questions and talk about expedition, yeah

[marble token]

why the hell i dont find storm crytsals right now

[rancid hazel]

Damn, I seriously honestly hate the Breach expedition... The constant active mission swithching is also getting on my nerves. Why can't we lock the active mission???? Also, why the hell we don't have any mission marker? I'm spending like 30 minutes now to find a freaking infested planet...

[remote thunder]

Shards of the Storm can be easily done in Gerogra-Hama Timestamp IV system, the gas giant Zavidi.

[remote thunder]

check this post <#nms-expedition message>, phase 3 section

[rancid hazel]

thx 😛

[marble token]

black holes ? really i to phase four milestone 7

[misty plinth]

@rancid hazel It tilted me too a little bit every time I passed too close to a derelict freighter.

[rancid hazel]

yea its annoying. this really needs to be changed. If i want to track the expedition mission, let me just lock it and thats all. I did a derelict freighter because I thought it was part of the expediton. wasted precious minutes... :/

[remote thunder]

there's a black hole in rendezvous 4, that will take you straight to rdv5

[marble token]

there was not a blackhole for me somehow but i manage it i am right now working on 5

[tender tusk]

The black hole is there at initial warp in but if you move away you'd have to find it in first person mode in your cockpit.

Alternate way is to warp out to a different system close by and warp back in and it should be closer.

Just in case the last milestone for phase 4 is not checked off in your expedition log

I do main quest. I need to go to centre of galaxy and i use like 5 artifact maps

All they are wrong

No monolith

[remote thunder]

1. mission the purge? see this post <#nms-commands message>
2. if you want to locate a portal using alien charts, you only need 3 alien charts, but if the first chart you pop doesn't add a marker called "alien monolith", you leave it alone, and pop another alien chart, and repeat, until you get the marker you need (see flowchart)

how the hell do I find Atter-90/Z1

How do we get nanites on this expedition? I have loads of augmentations to sell but can't find anywhere

[tender tusk]

You have to do the balckhole milestone for Phase 4; make sure it's selected and jump through the blackhole and it should teleport you to the right system.

If you were there and got lost go to the space station and look for System: Enoher-Kadur (Rendezvous 5) in the teleport list

[tender tusk]

you can find mold farms in the teleport list at a space station,farm, and refine those instead because there are no NPCs in the abandoned mode expedition

In the expedition all the rendezvous buildings are abandoned. The whispering eggs are outside them in clusters.

Use your visor and look towards the building when you beam down / land.

My corvette after the expedition

[winged adder]

<@&590975379678953522> #nms-expedition message

👍

Do the systems within the expedition exist in 'normal' mode? If I grabbed the planet code for a planet in the expedition, then used that code in a normal save, will I find the same resources on that planet as what I found on it during the expedition?

[glossy flame]

The planet should exist, but the resources isn't always the same

[winged adder]

Thanks.

[tidal sleet]

I am now playing my second Expedition in the game. in the The first one I lost a lot of the resources I had collected because I accidentally requested to transfer them to units.
Now I want the easiest and most reliable way to save resources and transfer them to the main storage after finishing the game.

[plush sand]

When does this end?

[tidal sleet]

expedition 3 days Remaining

[plush sand]

Oh thank.you . I haven't been able to play abd just found this 1 going on late last night

[gritty swift]

Guys, do you have the same problem? The game suddenly error when I try to enter the anomaly in multiplayer mode? I use Switch 2 console.

[remote thunder]

might be worth trying again, maybe it was just a one-off. but disabling multiplayer should make it stabler yeah. we can also submit bug reports to the devs

[tidal sleet]

just ended my second Expedition in the game.
in the The first one I lost a lot of the resources I had collected because I accidentally requested to transfer them to units.
Now I want the easiest and most reliable way to save resources and transfer them to the main storage after finishing the game.

[remote thunder]

in short, best to keep some resources on your ship, only the most useful ones on your suit, and try not to die. when you've completed and claimed all milestones, phase and final exp reward, if you started expedition from anomaly, you'll be able to send resources back to your primary save, basically same principle as it was when bringing resources into expedition

[tidal sleet]

what about creating Storage in ship corvette

[remote thunder]

sure, that works too/even better for long term storage ofc

that said, those inventories wont be merged with primary save

[tidal sleet]

thats right>>>
but i found that is if i install container with number already installed in main save it delete one in expedition and give it as units >>
so i instaled one with number not instaled on main save

[remote thunder]

it delete one in expedition and give it as units >>
sure but that's normal behavior regardless - storage containers in main save and storage containers in expedition save arent' linked or anything

[tidal sleet]

i will tri this methoud >>>>any granti

[vapid nymph]

For jellyfish is disabled multiplayer still required?

[remote thunder]

suggested and recommended, but you can always try with it on

[vapid nymph]

I shall try simply because I haven't turned it off once yet

[tidal sleet]

in the 1st Don't put any bait on and try to fish far from the shore. Cast the line a little further away... I caught a fish on my third try.
Also, if you catch a fish you don't want, use it as bait. It will help.

[remote thunder]

yeah, i didn't have to use any bait, simply just fish near the shore, have the milestone selected

[tidal sleet]

if you catch a fish you don't want, use it as bait. It help with me

[vapid nymph]

Based thanks

I got it on my second

[remote thunder]

i think iirc i caught mine actually first try both runs, both the og and the redux

never bothered to try deep water, always shore

we do believe the milestone selected is what ticks it

[vapid nymph]

I've now completed the expedition

so based

[tidal sleet]

any one in the anomely now?

[remote thunder]

you mean, from here, from this channel/server? it's possible yeah. also possible that people running exp still are probably focusing on getting it done

[vapid nymph]

I'm currently chilling there trying my best to condense everything down to 1 inventory for my trip back to main save

How does this all work btw like hoe much storage does the anomaly have

[remote thunder]

expedition terminus has 8 tech slots and 24 cargo slots, though we can abuse its mechanic to be able to bring more than that, meaning that much multiple times. in the case of corvette parts, one can just install them on on the ship, and then copy the ship from expedition char back into primary

how to abuse it <#nms-expedition message>

[vapid nymph]

I see, I was abiut to ask with corvette parts

Cuase you get a bunch from rewards

[remote thunder]

all of these (see image) are unlocked account wide, you dont need to bring them back. you'll just unlock them to use in the corvette workshop, by collecting them from the anomaly quicksilver shop in your other saves

[vapid nymph]

Is there a way to tell if a corvette peice is purely cosmetic or if it serves purpose?

[remote thunder]

when adding a part to the ship, when you cursor over the part, on the right side tooltip, if you see cosmetic on the description, then that part will not add any stats. ofc, decoration strut modules dont provide stats

[vapid nymph]

Okay thanks

Sorry for all these questions but

Is it worth bringing over the logs of the fire ship arcadia?

Based

[remote thunder]

only if you wished to keep them as mementos or something, really

[remote thunder]

nothing to be sorry about, always ask as much as you need to

[vapid nymph]

I'm not seeing anyway to send over mods from this same to my main, am I to just on as many as possible and try that way?

[remote thunder]

mods? you mean upgrade modules?

[vapid nymph]

Yes

[remote thunder]

in the expedition terminus, after you complete and claim all milestones, phase and final expedition rewards, you'll see the tech slots on the top row, and will be able to put tech and modules there

[vapid nymph]

Ah

Very limited

[remote thunder]

ofc, they need to be in your inventory already, can be in packaged form

[remote thunder]

how to bring 8+24 more than once see <#nms-expedition message>

@vapid nymph ofc, if they're multitool or ship upgrade modules, you could just install them on current ship and/or MT then copy gear from expedition: copied gear retains tech inventory contents

[vapid nymph]

Thanks this is incredibly helpful

One last question

Will everything in my storage get turned to money and nanites? Storage as in the stuff you place in your Base that's labeled 1 through 9

[remote thunder]

it should, but to make sure, you'd manually sell that stuff, or put it in suit/ship cargo (anything left in these will be sold for units or nanites)

[vapid nymph]

I want to turn all my ferrite dust into aeron starship trail's

They take 10 dust and sell for 16 nanites

That's alot of nanites to be made

[remote thunder]

@vapid nymph well, i guess you could do that then. btw, here's a table with the expedition bonus rewards

[vapid nymph]

OH NO

My game

It crashed

It dud

[vapid nymph]

Does scanning the planet count as planets seen or do I have to land?

[remote thunder]

got to exit seat/exit ship in atmosphere of that planet (or scan with freighter scanner room, i guess that'd work too, but not in this expedition)

[vapid nymph]

I have no frighters

Never figured out how to do it on here

Withiut speaking

[remote thunder]

cant do it on exp20, since abandoned universe, no npc fleets

[vapid nymph]

Ah

[vapid nymph]

So for a planet to be seen you have to stand on it, and that'll get me more resources

[tidal sleet]

Unfortunately, I adopted a tedious method of transferring tools and items from inside the Expedition to main save.
This must be done manually by moving several times between the Expedition item save location and the different storage types (ship storage , Suit and containers ) in main save.
Even transferring multi tools and Ships requires Nianites costs.
Even when transporting the Ship to the main save it costs Nianites , with the caution that the containers installed inside it will transfer empty... Only the items inside the main ship storage may be found there.

[remote thunder]

copying ship will not copy cargo inventory contents, only tech

[remote thunder]

well, it adds on to bonus nanite rewards on finish

[vapid nymph]

I'm fine with that

[vapid nymph]

If it adds 8 nanites for the type 35 for jsut being a planet and 35 per system I go to that'll add quickly

[remote thunder]

remember to get away from expedition systems, take a black hole or two

[tidal sleet]

can't find expedition base created in main save bases ?

[remote thunder]

does main save have access to purple star systems already? if the bases you're searching for were built in non-purple star systems in expedition, they should always be visible (unless i guess, if main save was at 400 base computers)

[tidal sleet]

@remote thunder
I can't travel to the purple system in my main save I don't have drives yet .
So I was thinking that I can build a base on expedition and I can Warp to it in the main save.

But I cannot find it in the warp machine...

[remote thunder]

1. just having the atlantid drive installed wont be enough, you actually need to unlock purple star systems by completing the needed quest in your main save
2. once you complete the quest (type !faq-purplesystems in #nms-commands for more infos), the bases you built in purple stars should be visible then

[tidal sleet]

@remote thunder
That kind of star system is not even available in the first game atlas Mile Stone...
I need to end my 1st atlas story and create a new galaxy with different stars..

[remote thunder]

no, it doesnt matter what option you took at the end of main storyline aka artemis path or the atlas path, as long as you've got them completed (iow, new beginnings and atlas eternal in your mission log)

you also need to do they who returned; these 3 are the requirements to be able to even trigger in stellar multitudes

[vapid nymph]

Nanite time

Idk if this is even a good nanite farm

But it's certainly low effort

If i did maths correct I have realised this is not worth it

Building 200 would give me 32k which if it as on PC and could script would probably be easy as

[arctic yarrow]

how do i get the emeril drive

[tropic quarry]

I figured out very quickly why so many people put bases on the water planet at the second rendezvous, extremely lucrative plants in the shallows that give a ton of carbon and oxygen

[small cosmos]

do I need the blakchole mission selected or the Atter-90/Z1 mission selected

ok I am not in the right system lol atter isn't here

[tender tusk]

IF you have the blackhole milestone done so the badge is in color then you just need to go to atter-90; if you don't then doing the black hole milestone will put you in the system for atter-90

[gritty mortar]

So I'm stuck in the expedition because I can't find rensayst xviii due to taming a companion earlier and being unable to track the milestone now . Been looking for a day or so. How do I find this planet

[small cosmos]

it didn't put me in rhe right system so I loaded restore point to try again

[gritty mortar]

Er, system. Not planet.

[glossy flame]

Try using the space station teleport

[small cosmos]

I'm still not in the right system 😭

[gritty mortar]

Ive tried. No luck. Can't find any other vile brood planet either to grab a grub from.

[glossy flame]

Can you post a snapshot of your teleport screen?

[gritty mortar]

I would but it's a long list and I've searched it thoroughly, hoping someone had a teleporter up to the kind of place i need to be. No Bueno

[glossy flame]

Do you have a system called Aitoig-Bifor?

[small cosmos]

I don't understand why the mission objective for alien menagerie is "Reach the planet to begin" implying the planet is in my current system when it's not

[glossy flame]

If you don't, check for a space station with rendezvous 1 under its name, and work backwards from there

[small cosmos]

and I can't jump to the system with the planet because it won't show me the route in the galaxy map

[glossy flame]

Have you reached the system for timestamp 5?

[small cosmos]

yep already finished that

but that system didn't have the planet either iirc

[glossy flame]

Try doing that on the timestamp 5 planet

[small cosmos]

idk what planet that was though

[glossy flame]

Go to the system, and just land on each one and check which scan progresses the milestone

If you find one that do, keep scanning on that planet

[small cosmos]

pretty sure I'm long gone from that system I went through a black hole

[glossy flame]

You can teleport with space station

That milestone specifically need scans done on the final timestamp planet

[small cosmos]

right but I don't know where I'm teleporting to though

[gritty mortar]

Yep. I'm currently in aitoig bifor.

[glossy flame]

Check for rendezvous 5 under the station name

[glossy flame]

The system you are looking for should be near that star, iirc literally next door to it

[small cosmos]

oh will it tell me which system had the rendezvous

[glossy flame]

Yes

[gritty mortar]

Finally found it after hours of searching lol

[hearty pike]

Same, I suspect the Switch 2 version has not been up to date frequently enough to be field tested for the recent corvettes, and is not properly optimised for the amount of PC players modding the game to land on traditional starship pads with oversized corvettes

Get enough flying replicas of the buckingham palace loading in and out of existence on switch 2 hardware, and im sure the system resources get overwhelmed and just crash the game

TLDR, just turn off multiplayer in network settings before visiting the anomaly if you are on Switch 2.

[gritty swift]

Yes, definitely. Got annoyed with this error.

I experience it after the latest update

[hearty pike]

I'm sure the next update, the anomaly will be stable again for the next 3 months while you are unable to crossplay with PC players because Nintendo hates 3rd party devs and wants them to never make games for their platform again.

Thats how long it took for the Switch 2 version to get a patch put out for the game, despite every other system deploying it almost immediately

Scuse me, just over a month

is it just me or are the ships that dock in the stations super buggy

[misty plinth]

They can be -

Like do you see some wobbling in place? Things similar to that?

[tawdry vine]

I have seen 3 ships inside of each other and also if I try to talk to the person that owns any ship they get sucked into the ground and the ship zooms away ;-;

[misty plinth]

What happens if you disable multiplayer?

[tawdry vine]

just did that and now all the ships are gone

[misty plinth]

That's the way the space stations are supposed to be in this expedition - it's meant to be an abandoned mode experience - no NPCs.

[tawdry vine]

ohh ok

well now I'm in a different situation I just teleported to a different station and now I'm inside the floor of the station floating

I think my game is just bugging out real bad right now

thank you for the help with the ships

[misty plinth]

Exit the game completely and restart it. You should be back by your ship.

[tawdry vine]

alrighty!

[misty plinth]

Restarting it might clear some of things causing you to have errors as well.

DIsabling multiplayer might help things run better also.

[tawdry vine]

yeah it looks like everything is fine now that I restarted

[kind pasture]

can someone help me with the derelict frieighter one i cant find the captains log and cant access the secure mainframe

nevermind found the credentials

[brave echo]

Fuck some of you who placed bases next to the second rendezvous point. I can’t place my nautilon literally anywhere and can’t proceed with the expedition. So thanks.

No special corvette parts for me I guess because this bullshit is allowed by HG

For days I’ve been trying to place my Nautilon so I don’t have to fucking swim all the down to who knows where but now I have work coming up and am probably not going to have time to finish this even though I should have, some of you griefed everyone else out of placing their nautilon.

[remote thunder]

1. have you tried reporting the other player bases to make them despawn for you, using on foot quick menu?
2. you could also go offline, to prevent other player bases from even downloading (multiplayer disabled might clear some bases, but not the uploaded ones)

[brave echo]

I did both of those things and there is still a massive area where I can’t build and now I don’t have time.

[remote thunder]

if you did 2), then save+restart in a diff system (to clear cached bases) then back in would literally be free of other player bases.

that's what truly offline does

[brave echo]

Oh I have to bail to get the bases to go away?

[remote thunder]

if they're already cached, yes, you need to clear them from your save file first

otherwise game is just going to keep loading them from your save

save in a system where there's no other bases, then restart, then warp back in while being offline

[brave echo]

Also how do I complete the last part of phase 1? I’m just floating in space not doing anything after shooting two parts on a broken corvette? Is there a third part?

This is boring

[glossy ridge]

use scanner and look for the wifi icon thing and collect it

[brave echo]

I fucking hate expeditions by the way. It’s video game homework where you don’t get the special bullshit if you have actual bullshit to take care of IRL. Fucking hate these things.

[glossy ridge]

then don't do expeditions lol

easy as that

[brave echo]

No I want the fucking stuff

Duh

They shouldn’t have a time limit, there’s so many it would be nice to go do an old one when you have time and see what people are on… though they shouldn’t be allowed to build around objectives idk why that’s even an issue

[brave echo]

What a dumb reply

[outer lotus]

Perhaps look into save editors. Several exist and a couple, though I don't know which ones off the top of my head, allow you to play most old expeditions whenever you want and get the stuff from them.

Or you could just use said save editors to give yourself the stuff.

[ocean gorge]

Save editing is not the panacea of fixing the issue of time limited expeditions.
Especially for console players, given how save editing sits in a relatively grey space in terms of being legit.

I’m not in any way saying people shouldn’t choose to do it if they want to. This game is largely a single player game, so in that sense, you can do whatever you want. Save edit, mod, whatever.

I’m just saying, there could be risks involved, and I for one am not going to risk my accounts to do save editing, simple as that.

[remote thunder]

not a save editor that allows us to, but basically replacing the file that contains expedition info, objectives, etc - with one of an old expedition, and go offline

[glossy flame]

Given that the game allows modding, and that the save files are basically in a text editor readable format, I doubt accounts would ever be in trouble, if HG had a problem with that, we would not have given modding abilities, nor would the save files be so easily accessed.

Consoles on the other hand, I understand, especially Ninty (which is largely why I never play on consoles unless it's an exclusive).

[wanton frigate]

Aside from reporting bases, bear in mind that if your corvette is too close you won't be able to build the nautilon either as you'll be trapped in the Corvette build menu. Don't hover over the water, beam down from a height. Also - if you're going to warp out and warp back in, try to set a navigation marker on the Rendezvous II spot first (not sure it's possible as it's all water but give it a go) or record the planet name and co-ordinates because if you've arrived anywhere nearby you've probably cleared the milestone that directs you to that spot. That said, there aren't many shallow spots on that planet that I've found so as long as you check the pins for the system and planet name you should be fine.

[main dawn]

Yo guys

How long would you say this expedition takes if I use an optimized path

I still have not started yet and may start tomorrow

[wanton frigate]

A few hours if you're focused.

[reef valve]

anything new yet? still repeating old content?

[remote thunder]

correct, still on reduxes, and it will probably be a while for the next one, but no official infos

[main dawn]

So, no expeditions for a while?

I just got back into the game two weeks ago after a year and was wondering why there is only 2 day gaps until another expedition to do, so no normal play timr

[remote thunder]

well we dont know for sure like i said, but they did just do a redux season, it's not like there's a rule that says that there's gotta be an expedition live at all times

[main dawn]

Yeah that is good

Gives time for normal play and not just grinding expedition

[remote thunder]

only reduxes are pretty much guaranteed to run back to back

[main dawn]

That is why i have not started yet

[lilac heart]

dont you get like

more than a month to do them usually

[brave echo]

Nope two weeks, a few have been a month or had their time extended due to horrible game breaking bugs

[lilac heart]

yes

these are two weeks

because they're redux expeditions

they're expeditions that have already happened the year prior

normal expeditions you get more than a month to do by default

[quartz tulip]

try turning off multiplayer or warp to another system

[prisma tundra]

normal expeditions are 6 weeks, reduxes are 2 weeks (or just shy of it) but are made easier due to typically being already played through by people and the shorter time limit

[tropic quarry]

The last planet in this one has the plainest fish I've found yet

[remote thunder]

glowy fish

[tropic quarry]

Other than it being bright as hell it's just... a fish

[brave echo]

What is sea glass and how do I find it? Deep ocean I imagine

Or do I make it

[misty plinth]

You collect in deep - deep water

Has a glowing pillar above it so it's easy to spot.

[prisma tundra]

it's at the sea floor in deep water that you collect, see the pins for a good place to do it

[brave echo]

How do I do the nip nip so I’m not scared?

Or just crack

[prisma tundra]

wdym?

[misty plinth]

You can grow it - harvest it - and sell it or process it in a nutrient processor.

[brave echo]

No my traveler 👀 is scared

Can someone give me three sea glass?

[celest flame]

I just started the expedition. Am I still able to play and get the rewards put onto my main save even after it ends? Or, when breach ends, wherever I'm at, is where I get the rewards?

[brave echo]

Pins?

Can you send a pic?

[misty plinth]

#nms-expedition message

You should be able to complete Breach in the time remaining depending on how much you can play and stay focused on the tasks.

If you don't finish by the time it ends and closes out then you only get the rewards for the milestones/phases you complete.

[celest flame]

Yeah, I'm only able to play for maybe 4 hours between now and tomorrow. I may be able to finish in time!

[prisma tundra]

there's literally an icon that looks like a push pin that you can click, or you can click the top of the channel then the word pins on mobile

[prisma tundra]

I don't think the milestone would work properly if someone gave it to you, plus it's recommended to stay in single player

• 📱Mobile: Tap search icon or channel name (at the top), then Pins (example below).

[prisma tundra]

ah, I didn't think I could activate that command lol

[woven sparrow]

Whereabouts do you get the advanced mining laser as a reward?

Doing the radiant shard objective and it's kneecapping me because I can't figure out if I should have an advanced laser.

[tropic quarry]

One of the milestones gave either the package or the blueprint as a reward but I don't remember which

[woven sparrow]

I have everything in phases 1 thru 4 save this one (4-5) and do not have the blueprint.

None of the later objectives give it either (unless the final objective that's hidden does)

[tropic quarry]

It was one of the earlier ones

[woven sparrow]

Thermal Power gives me a pre-packaged optical drill unit which is certainly not it.

[tropic quarry]

Phase 1 or 2

[woven sparrow]

Shipbreaking. Ok I see.

sighs.
