nms-expedition

[turbid cedar]

i got the milestone for discovering every creature within minutes of starting the expedition

i also got the milestone for disovering something with the cyclops scope despite not even being in an exocraft when i got it???????

[mellow badge]

when did the exp start?

[sullen meteor]

well if you think about it, it has to be that way

[turbid cedar]

it started when the update dropped

[blazing fossil]

Yeah no
F this I’m restarting until I get a better spawn

[turbid cedar]

i.e. earlier this morning

[sullen meteor]

if the expedition takes place on only one planet and you scanned everything with your visor outside the truck, you'd softlock yourself if it didn't count

[mellow badge]

should I get on now, or wait till they drop a couple hotfix patches to fix whatever the latest update broke?

[turbid cedar]

you're going to be doing that for a long time

[blazing fossil]

As long as it’s not uphill for ages to get between the waste dump and the refiner place I’ll be happy

[brisk loom]

hi all! first expedition ever, and not sure what to bring

[wanton frigate]

the soundtrack to Convoy

[brisk loom]

anyone point me to a good noob guide? cant seem to find one

[mellow badge]

Six Days On The Road And Im Gonna Make It Home Tonight

would be a good song to listen to while hauling scrap

[brisk loom]

dont konw how to use the commands on here, i think there is tips but not sure how to bring them up 🙂

[wanton frigate]

it's literally just started, the tips aren't rolling in just yet. Other than "don't load 5 pieces of waste, load 20" and "avoid that $&%ing hill!"

[brisk loom]

oh ok. as ive never done one, just trying to figure out what to bring with me 🙂

[mellow badge]

basicly anything you can refine into nanites

[wanton frigate]

If it's your first, don't bring anything. Experience it as it's meant to be experienced. You bring stuff to speed run them and for QoL, but for your first go, take your time and enjoy it

[brisk loom]

oooh good point!

[turbid cedar]

afaik pretty sure everyone gets more or less the same spawn point and has to go to the same waste heaps and refinery

[blazing fossil]

You chose a bad one to start with

[vagrant dagger]

I decided to come back to NMS today after like a year without knowing about the new update or expedition so this timing is fantastic!

[blazing fossil]

Yeah I know, I’m just salty

[brisk loom]

haha is what it is i guess hahaha

[brave rain]

Omega is gonna have nightmares about that mountain for years

[turbid cedar]

this expedition is doing a really good job of reminding me how much the colossus sucks lmao

[wanton frigate]

can you build a flatbed corvette (with inverted cowlings outside a second raised gantry) and build a ramp onto it so you can make a ferry for your big rig?

[blazing fossil]

But okay so
There’s no more waste at the waste disposal.
I’ve tried marking other disposals and it only marks that one.
The waste doesn’t respawn when I reload a save.
And the mountain is so steep it just makes me drop my cargo when I try to go up it
What the fuck am I supposed to do?

[wanton frigate]

terrain mod a road into the side of it? Sidewinder canyon style?

[remote thunder]

hmm, maybe try on a diff planet?

[blazing fossil]

To bring what waste?
There’s no more waste there?

[ashen violet]

Getting screwed in the exact manner

Hauled two loads and lost both to weird terrain

And they roll ALL THE WAY DOWN

[wanton frigate]

well given how long it would take it might have respawned by then 😄
Maybe for once turn Multiplayer on and wait at the bottom, catch some other poor schlub's cargo? 😄

[blazing fossil]

Knowing Nintendo they won’t even release the patches that will come for this expedition before it ends

[jagged sedge]

I happened to find my starship near the first salvage station, and tried to make repairs ... it no work 🙁

[remote thunder]

i havent started yet, sorry, not sure

[full glade]

How can you complete this expedition if you already scanned all the fauna/rocks/plants prior to the scanning steps in the expedition?

[remote thunder]

wdym?

[full glade]

There are no new things for me to scan to complete those steps

[remote thunder]

exp is a new char

go to a diff planet?

[pearl eagle]

Are people being toolbags as always and putting bases down everywhere so people cannot get resources?

That drove me nuts last expedition

[remote thunder]

remember that we can report bases to despawn them from our games via quick menu

keep multiplayer disabled, run expedition early

wont have that issue

[full glade]

yes but i scanned the animals/rocks right when i got into the expedition, now about 4 hours later i need to scan them with the exocraft special scanner to discover new fauna. I have already discovered all the fauna in the first 5 mins of expedition though. Its broken

[blazing fossil]

Omfg even the music is trolling me now
It’s playing a sadder version of the expedition complete tune

[remote thunder]

goto a diff planet

[full glade]

there is only 1 planet in this expedition

[remote thunder]

oh so no warping around?

[celest bison]

not even flight

[full glade]

nope, no ships

[pearl eagle]

No anomaly?

[celest bison]

nope

[jagged sedge]

Won't let me repair my ship

[remote thunder]

i assume that you've not scanned all the rocks on a single planet

almost nobody does

it wouldn't take 5minutes either

that said

if you need fauna scans now

[full glade]

theres only 5 rocks in expeedition and none are rare

[remote thunder]

shucks

raise a bug report

[full glade]

they need to bugfix this, this is a massive oversight

theres no way im the only one having this problem

[wanton frigate]

7 if you count the rocks in the head of the person who made that milestone

[grave helm]

Has there been an expedition like this before? Which you have to be in just one planet?

[remote thunder]

you'd be surprised with the number of people who actually scans stuff for fun or rewards

[full glade]

as of right now, if you scanned the animals/rocks prior to phase 3, you cannot complete the expedition.

[blazing fossil]

Yeah no
I didn’t think they could do it
But this expedition is worse than Aquarius…the purely rng expedition isn’t the worst expedition anymore

Imo

[pulsar panther]

Is there a way to get cobalt other than caves? Because I can't find any cavr

[remote thunder]

yes, expedition 3

[prisma oracle]

This is fun

[vagrant dagger]

Does this count only if you scan all animals/rocks prior to phase 3, or does scanning any animal cause the bug?

[blazing fossil]

OMFG

I finally managed to find some special waste
It hopped off of my truck, landed right next to me, blew up, and blew up the rest of my waste

[jagged sedge]

Combine cave marrow with oxygen in refiner

[blazing fossil]

I went back from 4-0

[prisma oracle]

NOOOOOOOO

[grave helm]

How am I supposed to do a lot on a single planet? I feel a bit handicapped with the ideia

[remote thunder]

wdym? get in there, look at objectives

[clever rain]

I had to reload my game and I lost all my hazardous waste do not make my mistake

[full glade]

prior to phase 3 as i now cannot discover anything new as the milestones require

[sonic karma]

I'm soft locked lmao, its telling me to scan two animals but I scanned all the animals before getting the exoscanner and can't find my ship to get off world

[remote thunder]

if devs made it so, it's possible to do it all on the same planet

[remote thunder]

raise a bug report

[prisma oracle]

What did you do

[ashen violet]

A reload respawned the hazardous materials but you still have to drive all the way again

[grave helm]

It's a simplistic expedition? I had in mind we needed to grind a lot to get high level stuff on the expedition. So we can't get off the planet? How does it work? No starship? Locked to the system?

[full glade]

WARNING: Do not scan the animals/rocks prior to later phases in the expedition! In later phases of the expedition, you will have to scan and discover new fauna/rocks to complete milestones in the objective. If you already discovered all the rocks/fauna on the planet while running around prior to this phase, you cannot complete the milestones and thus the expedition.

[remote thunder]

idk, i havent' started it yet

[remote thunder]

raise a bug report when you get a bit of spare time

and fwiw, for the future, always review milestones of the entire expedition, so you know what's coming

will probably help avoiding bugs such as this

[clever rain]

Lmao I got roadkill milestone by mistake just living my best life

I couldn't be a truck driver irl

[atomic estuary]

I have a bad feeling

I think I might have softlocked myself

I scanned 5/6 creatures normally and you have to scan 2 using cyclops for exocraft

[remote thunder]

you're not the only one

[solemn bane]

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kill a walker by throwing little sentinels at it... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

[atomic estuary]

Man

[remote thunder]

2 players in the last 5minutes

[full glade]

Yep Bjorn, im pissed about it

[clever rain]

Thanks for the warning I haven't scanned anything yet

[atomic estuary]

How did none of them think about when they were planning the expedition is beyond me

[hollow mason]

Any new Expedition

[atomic estuary]

Did save editors get updated yet? Bc I'm doing this only for the new character cosmetics

[clever rain]

You lose your cargo ig you reload too problematic if the hazardous waste

[atomic estuary]

Shame bc it was fun so far

[clever rain]

If

[prisma oracle]

I like it

[remote thunder]

yes

[hollow mason]

When does it end

[remote thunder]

march

[hollow mason]

Ok

[atomic estuary]

ok

This is interesting

I scanned only one that was left

And it completed it

[proper relic]

any recommendations for what cargo(left) and tech(right) to bring?

[atomic estuary]

We are so back

[full glade]

lucky you 🙁

i had all discovered already

[blazing fossil]

I drove so far looking for special waste I just randomly found another waste processing plant

[plush onyx]

how do I get the items I brought with me if I can't go to my ship?

[celest bison]

nope there is eight, i found all of them, but 3 of them are tiny, and 2 of them are cave rocks

2 of them can be found in the tiny peble patches most planets have

and the last one is spherical and microscopic and i found it by pure chance

[full glade]

i dunno man i got the nanite reward for 6/6

[remote thunder]

finding all rocks or plants doesnt give a bonus nanite reward like finding all fauna does

[plush onyx]

do I have to go to the anomaly somehow?

[remote thunder]

idk sorry, i havent tested this

[plush onyx]

do NOT jump in the waste incinerator

[blazing fossil]

FINALLY

I got 5 special was, I’m at the processing plant

Now where do I dump this, I don’t wanna do it wrong

[wanton frigate]

did you think that would get you to the anomaly??

[plush onyx]

i was curious

it kills very fast

[blazing fossil]

Please
Someone tell me, where dump this?

@remote thunder where do I dump the special waste?

[wanton frigate]

There's a special site at the top of the tallest hill you can see.... (don't listen to me this is not true)

[remote thunder]

e.g.

[karmic plover]

The point where you started

[blazing fossil]

Well yeah, I’m there

[plush onyx]

did I desync or something? every player is teleporting for me

[karmic plover]

Check the logis

[remote thunder]

one for general stuff, one for toxic ones, another for radiation ones, and another for blast ones

[karmic plover]

Logos

[blazing fossil]

So I just match symbols?

[karmic plover]

Yes

[blazing fossil]

Is blast furthest left or right?

[karmic plover]

Right

radio middle

Toxic left

[blazing fossil]

Thanks

[fluid otter]

is this expedition as long and grindy as the breach one? trying to figure out how much time i'll need to set aside

[karmic plover]

Suuuupeeeerrrrr grindy and tbh frustrating

[fluid otter]

ughhhhhhh

[karmic plover]

Well not grindy but its tedious

[blazing fossil]

I DID IT

PHASE ONE DONE

[outer lotus]

How long does it last?

[remote thunder]

ends in march

[clever rain]

Do u guys think other cars get upgraded like this?

[blazing fossil]

Exactly 2 hours
And I finished phase 1

[karmic plover]

Im at like 2½ hrs and im still at the 2nd rdv

[blazing fossil]

I feel like a new player playing this

[outer lotus]

Crap. I'll have to start then.

[grave helm]

I looked in the site but I couldn't find the expedition rewards. What do we have besides the legs?

[grave helm]

Very likely imo

[sand timber]

Chat
How do I get chromatic metal without being able to build a refiner?

[grave helm]

If they did with Minotaur and Colossus

[blazing fossil]

You have a personal

[sand timber]

oh

prior expeditions always gave us those as a reward

not already preinstalled

so was confus

[outer lotus]

Wait. If everything is on one planet how do you get to the anomaly? Just find and repair a ship or what?

[blazing fossil]

That’s the neat part

You don’t

[outer lotus]

So bringing resources is useless since you can't get them?

[grave helm]

No ship as well?

[ashen shore]

Hi

[blazing fossil]

Yes ship, ship no leave

Since when can pirate ships attack you while you’re just standing on the ground with no structure nearby?

[outer lotus]

Now? I guess.

[wanton frigate]

maybe the truck is big enough that it counts as a building?

[blazing fossil]

Truck wasn’t near

Literally just me

[grave helm]

It happened to me on economic posts but just it

[wanton frigate]

Play dead, see if they come down to pick your corpse clean, then overpower them and fly their ship to the anomaly.

[sand timber]

No ship?

am confus

[grave helm]

I love how Colossus went from silly NASA space vehicle to MadMax destruction truck

[plush onyx]

i thought there were no ships?

[blazing fossil]

Correct
No ship

[sand timber]

but

isn't that ship

[blazing fossil]

It is ship

[sand timber]

what happens if i fix it

[blazing fossil]

Ship can’t leave

[wanton frigate]

you can find your ship but not fly it.

[grave helm]

I guess they appear but don't work?

[sand timber]

oh

sadge

[plush onyx]

it says its owned by someone but idk

[blazing fossil]

Ship is there

[sand timber]

i am addicted to my multi tool on main save kek

[blazing fossil]

Ship can’t leave though

[sand timber]

but then how do we get to the anomaly? End to expedition?

[grave helm]

Ok but this is a hauler, players don't start with those, or do they on expeditions?

[wanton frigate]

Maybe the idea is that you find another player, let them get in their ship and then gravity-gun them into orbit.

(it's not. I'm just waffling till I can get some Switch time)

[blazing fossil]

You don’t get anomaly until the end correct

[plush onyx]

does someone know how I can get the items I brought from the main save to the expedition tho??

[sand timber]

so much for "return when you want" lul

[karmic plover]

I dont think you can

[sand timber]

Well i didn't bring anything anyway since i read "All on one planet"

just sad for my multitool

[wanton frigate]

you can leave the expedition any time from the Save menu (return to primary)

[elder acorn]

cargo tiedowns or bungee cord would be nice

[plush onyx]

with the grav gun do y'all prefer 1st or 3rd person now?

[cobalt bear]

so, this expedition is about slowly driving across giant mountains and trying not to lose cargo, except there's nothing you can actually do to avoid hilly terrain because its everywhere and there's no safe path to randomly generated points of interest, in the slowest vehicle in the game

...this kind of sucks, actually.

[outer lotus]

But walker truck

[remote thunder]

since they added planetary pirate raids, has always been a thing afaik

[cobalt bear]

in these usual kinds of truck sim games you have clear paths and risky paths and the risky ones are high risk high reward, where you opt into making a stupid play for a bigger payoff

but here its just. all terrible terrain all the time

[blazing fossil]

Has it?

[plush onyx]

i think there is something that helps u prevent losing cargo? it was in release notes

[blazing fossil]

Huh

[cobalt bear]

if the planet sucks, well, guess what, you're stuck here this expedition

[plain hound]

is the new expedition out?

[outer lotus]

Yes

[cobalt bear]

it helps okay on flat terrain but if you hit a bump its disabled

[remote thunder]

yep

[cobalt bear]

i went from like 20 pieces of cargo to 6

in one bump

[plush onyx]

we should build roads

[topaz brook]

any standouts for the packing list this time around?

[cobalt bear]

i only need 5 anyway for this milestone so f**k it, im not getting out for that

[outer lotus]

None. You can't get to the anomaly.

[cobalt bear]

not plausible with base building.

[slow nexus]

chat

i need urgent help

[plush onyx]

we should carve roads

[topaz brook]

oh is it single-system

[cobalt bear]

if this planet generated with interconnecting roads

that might have been cooking

[cobalt bear]

single planet

you don't get a spaceship, period

[topaz brook]

oh, funky

[cobalt bear]

better hope you like the look of desert: you'll be seeing it a lot.

extensively.

[slow nexus]

so i need to discover 2 creatures from my exocraft, but before this, i already manually scanned all creates, what do i do now

[plush onyx]

i mean imagine they actually add road building of sorts for the next updates - like, outside of the base computer

[grave helm]

What are the expedition rewards besides the spider legs?

[cobalt bear]

be a bit late for this expedition

wouldnt matter in saves where you're allowed to fly around

[grave helm]

Bruh you have a MaxMad truck that can demolish everything on its way

[outer lotus]

Doesn't the laser on the exocraft edit terrain now? You could build roads that way.

[stuck marsh]

hello can someone help me.??? i cant see the new waste at all. theres no icon in the fisor and there is none at all on the ground anyhwere

[slow nexus]

i have 1/2 scanned but im pretty sure i have all species scanned now, am i soft locked?

[plush onyx]

yuh but roads are cool

[karmic plover]

fuckass terrain

[cobalt bear]

yeah, demolish everything in your way and also lose all your cargo

[plush onyx]

i'm more impressed with the driving than the terrain

[cobalt bear]

this fuckass terrain sucks for, uh, the entire concept of this expedition.

but that's what we gotta put up with

[grave helm]

Wdym? The cargo actually jumps from the truck lmao?

[cobalt bear]

it sure does.

[remote thunder]

yep

if you bounce too much

[cobalt bear]

really this whole update is

[solemn bane]

I love it when the game starts me in one of those perfect, breathtaking locations that really shows off how far the game has come.

[cobalt bear]

"look, we added physics objects! watch how things fly around!"

[plush onyx]

jsut wait until players find ways to glitch base parts into the trucks like they did with the corvettes lmao

[karmic plover]

1 bump, all of your cargo flings out at mach 1

[grave helm]

It had a light on it was sure there was some invisible box on it lmao how terrible

[stuck marsh]

can someone help me.??? i cant see the new waste at all. theres no icon in the fisor and there is none at all on the ground anywhere

[cobalt bear]

and then the expedition is "try not to make things fly around, mind our Source Engine™ jank moments"

[plush onyx]

are you on a planet with scavangeble scrap?

[cobalt bear]

(they dont use the source engine, but damn if they didn't manage to recreate the highlights)

[finite gull]

this happened to me too

[remote thunder]

if you quick scan with colossus they'll also be marked

[stuck marsh]

yes right next to the furnace and there is nothing at all on the planet

[earnest falcon]

Why isnt the expedition available for Switch 2?? Help???

[grave helm]

The incinerator feels like a necessity uh. Can you get it in the expedition normally?

[remote thunder]

you need to move, if planet has salvageable scrap on the list

[stuck marsh]

i tried

[plush onyx]

they show me what I can't reach

[finite gull]

does anyone know how to get their ship back?

[remote thunder]

move again - use your colossus radar

[finite gull]

i cant even find it

[earnest falcon]

Why isnt the expedition available for Switch 2?? Help???

[grave helm]

Is it the only way?

[remote thunder]

follow milestones, forget your ship

[stuck marsh]

i went to my normal save and did that and still nothing

[finite gull]

i can’t

i’m softlocked

[remote thunder]

why

[cobalt bear]

you dont get your ship this expedition.

[remote thunder]

no? use visor

[cobalt bear]

It doesn't exist.

[finite gull]

i cant scan creatures i’ve already scanned

[remote thunder]

raise a bug report

[stuck marsh]

it doesnt exist for me either

[earnest falcon]

Why isnt the expedition available for Switch 2?? Help???

[finite gull]

it’s not a bug tho

[remote thunder]

that's why i said forget your ship

[finite gull]

i need my ship

[remote thunder]

it is..

you're not the only one..

[sand timber]

wait you have to scan animals with your vehicle?

[finite gull]

yes

[remote thunder]

yes

[sand timber]

I might be boned too then

[remote thunder]

for a milestone

[finite gull]

it ain’t even optional 🥀

[sand timber]

because i already scanned them with ny normal visor

[remote thunder]

had you reviewed milestones ahead, you'd know

[noble cobalt]

@remote thunder hello!!!! The update's pretty trashy aint it?

Hows the expedition? Is it long? Or short?

[sand timber]

wat

[remote thunder]

i'm loving the update; havent played new exp yet

[sand timber]

i'm sorry i didn't go to page 3 objective nr 4 in case i could permanently softlocked

[noble cobalt]

Im in love with the spider legs

[sand timber]

Glad i learned of this an hour in and not when i was almost done

[elder acorn]

....and autocollect doesn't count for "process special industrial waste"

[finite gull]

fix yo dam expedition! lmao

[grave helm]

Can we rush the exp or we can do each phase with a cooldown between?

[plush onyx]

they filled my inventory with bones hjelp?

[remote thunder]

you can do it as fast as you can or want

[remote thunder]

sell/dump?

[plush onyx]

any place I can sell in at the waste plant?

[sand timber]

wait where does it say "scan with vehicle"?

[remote thunder]

not that i know of

[grave helm]

Do you know about the truck updates? If I get it on normal safe I can have them on exp from start?

[sand timber]

I already counts the animals i've scanned this far

[remote thunder]

idk sorry, maybe

[remote thunder]

just raise a bug report, wait for the devs to fix it, do other milestones if you still have any left

[sand timber]

hm Expedition wants me to scan 2 creatures with the vehicle but i've only scanned 3 this far

so i should be good

[remote thunder]

yes

[sand timber]

since i have 3 animals left to scan

[blazing fossil]

Phase 2 done
Phase 1 took exactly 2 hours
Phase 2 took less than 30 minutes…

[astral dome]

wait did we get expedition on release of this update?

[sand timber]

my instinct on every expedition is to immediately scan everything so i can get a better multitool

[finite gull]

i’m on phase 3
still

[clever rain]

I'm already almost done phase 3 pretty cool exp
These damn barrels explode too easy lol sometimes just by picking them up

[atomic estuary]

I saw a pilot land and I had a cheeky idea. Interesting that they thought about that but not about possible softlock 😕

[ionic gust]

sorry to bother, i'm a new player and i haven't done any expedition before, can some one explain me how they works?

[clever rain]

It pretty much a tutorial of the new features

[atomic estuary]

It's a time limited game mode with its own special set of tasks and rewards which once unlocked can be claimed on other saves. We have an FAQ if you want to give it a look -> #nms-commands message

[rocky kernel]

Likely someone already mentioned it, but there is a typo in the event "It ends 10/15/25 (in a month)."

[ionic gust]

because i saw the video and i saw some structure i've never saw before

[blazing fossil]

Oh…

A problem with the visor on console

The visor button is also the reverse button

You can’t use visor without reversing

At least for me

[stuck marsh]

found a waste heap and its completely empty

wtffffff

i want to pick up waste

[slow nexus]

how did u fix it

[clever rain]

That happened to me too I don't think this update was tested much lol but it's very fun

[stuck marsh]

it doesnt exist for me wtfff hello games

[finite gull]

i didn’t

[blazing fossil]

You can find special waste at random drops too

[slow nexus]

so we just cooked

[finite gull]

pretty much

[slow nexus]

wow

[stuck marsh]

yea but ur not understanding what im saying

[finite gull]

they shouldn’t of given us a scanner imo

[clever rain]

Semi cooked gotta drive around and look at drops

[stuck marsh]

it doesnt exist in my game at alll

[tidal pollen]

OH expedition is up already?

hype

[slow nexus]

or auto completed challenge if all were scanned

[stuck marsh]

the waste is not in my game at all

[blazing fossil]

No I am
It happened to me too
Just find random waste drops out in the wild

[celest bison]

wow this expo is a slog.

[stuck marsh]

uggghhhhhhh its fustrating

[blazing fossil]

Oh that’s weird

[celest bison]

im like, 3 hours in and im only halfway through

[slow nexus]

can someone help with what i need to do to find waypoint becons?

[finite gull]

i mean i think you use the scanner

[celest bison]

just look for buildings with one of these

and interact with that,

[finite gull]

buildings

[celest bison]

it will do a little animation

[finite gull]

monoliths,

[finite gull]

oh

[slow nexus]

how will i even find this

and yes

[finite gull]

those

[slow nexus]

i tried scanner

its finding me shit 30 FUCKING MINS AWAY

[celest bison]

in the analasys visor you can find nearby buildings

they show up as "unknown building" and have a little blue house as the icon

[slow nexus]

yeah dont shit shit man

[celest bison]

the range is roughly 1.2k units

[slow nexus]

im so cooked

im on top of a random hill

how did i even get here

[celest bison]

lol

[celest bison]

yeah tho, that range represents roughly when they start rendering as well

i think render range might be 1.5k units

[slow nexus]

i used a scanner and its tilling me i'll reach in 35mins

[celest bison]

so could be worth using photo mode and going up and doing a visual search

[slow nexus]

does knowledge stone or damaged machinery work

[remote thunder]

no

[celest bison]

nope

[finite gull]

how do we leave then?

[remote thunder]

can use visor to find unknown buildings; travel west or east till you find the first building or native biome plant, then head north or south and stick to that longitude

[slow nexus]

well

i cant complete expedtion anyways

[celest bison]

wish i could this react this mesage.

[ashen violet]

Didn't actually give me progress

[celest bison]

why is that?

[finite gull]

how do you leave..

[celest bison]

really???

[ashen violet]

That's what I assumed it would be

[remote thunder]

was it already discovered?

[ashen violet]

Came here after trying that

Nope

[slow nexus]

i scanned all species with my vison befoe hand, so now i need 1 more t oscan with my exocraft, but there arent more species

[remote thunder]

can someone help with what i need to do to find waypoint becons?
waypoints are those interactable objects, no mistake about it

[celest bison]

ah, yeah that might be a softlock

[remote thunder]

if it's not working, then make sure it wasnt discovered, because if it wasnt, then that's a bug

[celest bison]

ngl this expo really doesnt feel like it was playtested all that much

[woven ferry]

Out of curiosity would anyone here be willing to team up and help out with the expedition? I’ve never done one before so it’s all new to me

[celest bison]

cus its for one, really boring, and two, verry easy to softlock.

[grave helm]

What? My cars drive with analogic, they don't reverse like ships as far as I remember. Could this be some configuration?

[finite gull]

i don’t think they get playtested

[slow nexus]

also i hate this slow ahh exocraft bruh

[grave helm]

What is softlock?

[celest bison]

this expo only works solo i think

like multiplayer is enabled, but it has no benifit

[blazing fossil]

I equipped the visor
Tried to use it
It uses it, but also reversed

[ashen violet]

Especially actually holding special salvage in the Galaxy's bumpiest crater

[slow nexus]

u need to scan 2 species with exocraft, but u can do it before hand with visor and have none left to scan

[blazing fossil]

Try holding left trigger while in colossus

[remote thunder]

some kind of bug then, mine does not reverse when i use visor

[finite gull]

omega
how do i leave?

[grave helm]

So we must not scan until this quest? Noted

[remote thunder]

leave what, expedition?

[blazing fossil]

Interesting

[slow nexus]

yeah

or atleasy leave 2 specis

[celest bison]

they do have playtesting, there was a meme going around a bit ago where YouTube autocaption misheard something related to it as "kids in the basement"

[finite gull]

yes

[grave helm]

Don't you play on PC?

[blazing fossil]

That was about switch 2 though

[unkempt sphinx]

do i have to drive 2 hours to the other rendevouz?

[slow nexus]

yes

and then back

[grave helm]

Create a new save

[ashen violet]

If you're using the default controller scheme then front back on left stick is to drive exocraft and scanning is triggers

[remote thunder]

started from existing save? you can return to primary by going options/return to primary

[unkempt sphinx]

Oh Ok

[celest bison]

qa testing was mentioned in the same vid arround the same time

[finite gull]

??

[woven ferry]

Understood on that end. I guess more looking for a coach. I’ve only played in creative mode so I’m totally lost 😂

[finite gull]

that doesn’t help me at all

[remote thunder]

and with a keyboard yes

[sand timber]

can people yoink your stuff on the truck?

[blazing fossil]

They had ”switch 2 deaf kids in the basement” as they were testing for the switch 2 version and what it would be able to support

[slow nexus]

make sure ur shit doesnt fall out of ur exocraft, and u put them in the right spots so u dont have to go back

[grave helm]

Leave, then create a new exp save

[slow nexus]

speaking from exprience

[blazing fossil]

That’s what the quote was about

[grave helm]

He said the problem was on console

[celest bison]

yeah thats it

[finite gull]

i want to leave the expidition
not create a new save

[celest bison]

still, shows there is at least some quality assurance testing, clearly not enough tho,

[jagged sedge]

Fun fact - if you summon your exocraft that was loaded, the exocraft will be moved but your loaded stuff will not

[remote thunder]

ah sorry, missed that @blazing fossil

[remote thunder]

yep tried already

[slow nexus]

ofc

[celest bison]

in any case, this is offtopic now

[remote thunder]

first thing i tried actually

[grave helm]

I wanted to know about that, thanks

[jagged sedge]

Consarn Tarnation

[blazing fossil]

Yea, thought so

[remote thunder]

too good to be true 😄

[celest bison]

anyways im going back to the slog expo

[wet egret]

Is exp up already?

[celest bison]

i just wanna get it done and be done.

[blazing fossil]

Could someone on console try holding left trigger with the new exocraft visor installed?

[grave helm]

This shit really won't have any use after the expedition, right?

[slow nexus]

bro this fuckass game wants me to drive 35 mins for a waypoint becon im so done 😭

[remote thunder]

easy on the language

[slow nexus]

yeah my bad

[woven ferry]

It worked fine for me. I’m on normal game mode

[finite gull]

wants me to drive an hour to a trade depo

[jagged sedge]

I kinda like the excavation blade thing, I'm gonna keep that one

[slow nexus]

and then back

[finite gull]

nah cus i’m getting a ship

[blazing fossil]

Didn’t reverse?

And it used the visor?

[slow nexus]

how

[celest bison]

tbh yeah, needs more substance, needs to have significant rewards, a max of 60 nanites for big cargo is too small.

[tiny lily]

How easy is the expedition this time?

[grave helm]

Guess the industrial waste are just scrap parts but for truck, difference is you just need to unlock each piece once so you won't need that endless grind everytime you want to build a new vehicle

[finite gull]

money

[celest bison]

needs to reward corvette parts or smthn

[signal kite]

Do you start with/get the equipment to summon exocraft? I'm still at work

[karmic plover]

I fell into a hole and all of my cargo just went out

[blazing fossil]

Can’t take off

[grave helm]

Yh that seems useful

[finite gull]

no

[slow nexus]

its just tedious

[celest bison]

you get it quickly

[karmic plover]

Its a fuckin toxic hole too

[woven ferry]

Negative and the visor worked fine. My controls are set to default so it used the joystick to drive

[karmic plover]

Oh my god

[celest bison]

this, a thousand times this.

[finite gull]

the ship will have thrusters?

[blazing fossil]

Correct
Can’t take off though

[signal kite]

Sick so I can use the jetpack mod to skip driving for an hour lol. Assuming jetpack mod doesn't crash the game

[finite gull]

why would you do this 🥀

[grave helm]

Also I doubt the spider legs are good or anything, they probably just look cool

[blazing fossil]

No anomaly

[slow nexus]

ship would make it too easy

[celest bison]

patched temp, as it is with most updates, wouldnt help anyways with the sheer amount of cargo needed to be carried

[blazing fossil]

They might actually help keep cargo in the truck

[celest bison]

that can only be carried as phys objects

[finite gull]

a ship wouldn’t soft lock the expo

[signal kite]

Oh I forgot about the cargo part. Damn.

[slate drum]

i was just carrying trash and due to specific planet landscape the trash just fell down

[slow nexus]

but it woul make it so u diont have to drive for 30mins

[grave helm]

You won't need cargo after the expedition, you will have every piece unlocked

[finite gull]

you still have to for the main part

[celest bison]

ngl this update is weaker than the one exocraft where intorduced in

[blazing fossil]

Every single part is unlocked from the expedition? Really?

[lilac dagger]

YESSSS

[celest bison]

cus at least that had significant worldgen changes

[grave helm]

No, but I suppose that through doing the expedition you end up unlocking everything as a consequence

[grave helm]

How was the exocraft one?

[blazing fossil]

Yes but a lot of the things are customizations, and thus can’t be transferred between saves

[grave helm]

Oh they can't? I thought they were like anomaly unlocks

[hollow flicker]

You you please again send the expedition link for items to take please

[slow nexus]

but i just fell in some random hole

[blazing fossil]

It was literally just ”Here’s a few cars, have fun”

[finite gull]

any of the expidition rewards in the quicksilver shop?

[blazing fossil]

Don’t bring anything

[celest bison]

it was, ok, also pretty mid like this one, but the worldgen changes where nice, and the modern artstyle was established (launch nms is a verry diferent game art wise)

[grave helm]

Ok but what did you have to do?

[blazing fossil]

You won’t have access to the anomaly @hollow flicker

[bold shuttle]

How do I chart waypoints? I used the save beacons at different structures but it hasnt counted

[slow nexus]

so how do u return

[hollow flicker]

I am in the anomaly right now lol

[grave helm]

What a pity I started exps with this one. Hope I like it

[blazing fossil]

Go to anomaly
Get geobays
Build geobays
Boom drive cars

[celest bison]

jef, this is roughly what you need to look for, just walking arround and checking visor every once and a while

[slow nexus]

how many u at

[blazing fossil]

Not on the expedition

[remote thunder]

phase and final expedition rewards are always unlocked account wide, and normally claimable from quicksilver shop in each of your saves (under the same account ofc)

[bold shuttle]

0/6 still

[blazing fossil]

Options menu

[slow nexus]

[remote thunder]

sounds like it might be bugged, saw another player reporting it not counting either

[finite gull]

i mean how the autophage parts were also able to be bought

[slow nexus]

i havtn really sued any waypoint beacons

but im on 2/6

[blazing fossil]

There’s no anomaly in the expedition, until you finish it
You’re locked to a single planet

[slow nexus]

somehow

[celest bison]

i normally dont like expos for being LTM, but i especially don't like this one for hor much of a repetitive slog it is

[finite gull]

this was a bad idea fr

[grave helm]

Aspiring scrap-hunters can install a tippable flatbed on the Colossus Exocraft, for easy transportation of large hauls. An electromagnetic containment field minimises cargo loss while navigating uneven terrain - but drive carefully up steep slopes!

Does it actually minimise losses lol?

[karmic plover]

Bruh

[remote thunder]

it's not like we need anything to complete an expedition

[slow nexus]

well it counts for me

[celest bison]

some of them, have been good fun tutorials to intoduce people into the update they are tied to tho

the corvette ones i enjoyed

[finite gull]

so then how do we

[karmic plover]

Do i need to chart actual abandoned buildings??????

[blazing fossil]

Im genuinely surprised they managed to make a worse expedition than Aquarius…

[karmic plover]

Ive charted like 4 POI and none is fuckin counting towards the milestone

I have it selected

[bold shuttle]

I might be interacting with the wrong thing 🤔 Its the sector navigation beacons right?

[blazing fossil]

And you’ve interacted with the save point poles?

[karmic plover]

Yes

5/6

[grave helm]

Sorry the game is unplayable without Minotaur to me /jk

[finite gull]

is there like an exit in the depo?

[blazing fossil]

Weird

[celest bison]

weird, maybe some just dont county

[toxic garden]

people i need help. I scanned all the creatures before getting cyclops scanner and am now softlocked (i believe) on one of the tasks. what can i do?

[slow nexus]

yeah

[karmic plover]

But for some reason this last one just wont count

Im this close to just exit and save edit the rewards

[remote thunder]

how do we do what, sorry

[karmic plover]

I cannot with these fuckass milestones

[plush onyx]

BEWARE OF CAVES WHEN DRIVING. ESPECIALLY THE BIG HOLES IN THE GROUND

[blazing fossil]

Report it to Hg and hope they fix it quickly

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

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

[remote thunder]

hey, please go easier on the language

[karmic plover]

Sorry im just frustrated

[slow nexus]

there should honestly be a channel in discord to report bugs too ngl unles s therte is

[remote thunder]

try to take a break; expedition is going to be running for 6weeks

[karmic plover]

Its just so so so slow to do stuff

[karmic plover]

I alr took some breaks

[atomic estuary]

Worked perfectly for me, interacted with waypoints and it all counted

[grave helm]

I believe creating a new save and restarting is the fastest fix by now. But hey they might have fixed the issue til night

[karmic plover]

Might just sleep for the day tbh

[karmic plover]

It worked fine for 5 of em

[remote thunder]

devs have established the way to raise bug reports to be through that link - we're a community run server, no devs here

[karmic plover]

The last one just wont count

[blazing fossil]

!officialdiscord

[unkempt kraken]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

The game's developer HelloGames.org links to our Discord, officially acknowledging it as the No Man's Sky Discord (https://discord.gg/nomanssky). However, the server is 100% run by community volunteers...

[karmic plover]

Even though i have it selected

[blazing fossil]

No use, far as we know there’s no devs here

[toxic garden]

does all my expedition progress get annihilated if i do that?

[slow nexus]

o right

[karmic plover]

And getting to these POI takes way too long

[toxic garden]

shi

[karmic plover]

I need like 10 mins for each

[remote thunder]

i think people are trying to rush it - and forgetting a bit that they can take it a lot easier, because there's 6 weeks left on the clock

[slow nexus]

man i deadass just fell down the trench in my exocraft idk where i am

[slow nexus]

nah its just that its tedious

really

[karmic plover]

It says most planetary structures but does the waste disposal count??

[slow nexus]

its all just drive around

slowly

[grave helm]

Does it? I thought it was just a second expedition save. People can have just one?

[barren dune]

is the exp live? When i hit new game it says no community exp?

[remote thunder]

i understand. try to enjoy the scenery too i guess, there's beauty almost everywhere, some kind of beauty at least - see if there's other milestones from other phases that you havent done yet that you could possibly do on the way for example.

[plush onyx]

yeah its live, it worked for existing save at least. i think it doesn't work on new game because it gives you no ship?

[remote thunder]

unless you're on xbox/gp, yes

[toxic garden]

i would like to know, i am a working man and just want to finish this damn thing

[finite gull]

how do we leave

[slow nexus]

Minor settlement located!
ARRIVE IN: 5 HOURS

[barren dune]

the exp terminus says no expedition for me. maybe steam didnt get the update for me, idk

[remote thunder]

i've answered this question already; goto options menu, return to primary

[plush onyx]

fr it's really fun. The driving controls are fun and I had to make a whole road out of a cave after I fell in one. Love this

[celest bison]

so, found cheese for reorient sentinels

[torpid oracle]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1r2116a/man_f_this_expedition_already/

I can't believe it, but after seeing this post, and starting the expedition, I fell in THE EXACT SAME HOLE

[remote thunder]

what's the number you see lower left in main menu?

[celest bison]

just spam right click on one 64 times.

[finite gull]

ok ty

[tight idol]

what are the missions that you have to do? I want to know what to bring

[finite gull]

i was gettin stressed cus somone was telling me to make a new save 🥀

[slow nexus]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

[remote thunder]

no need, seems that we dont have access to anomaly on this one

[torpid oracle]

I literally Alt+F4'd, I'll take my chances with my save point

[toxic garden]

welp fml i guess i'll make a new save and redo the whole expedition

[atomic estuary]

Also, not sure how you would call those terrain formations, but they work surprisingly well as roads, regular terrain, little to none obstacle that could make you lose your cargo

[tight idol]

interesting. so I should do this on a seperate save ig

[plush onyx]

what i do to enjoy this is that I don't focus on completing each milestone. I just drive around and play and most of them get completed by themselves

[remote thunder]

had you started expedition run from main menu, restarting would be as easy as just returning to main menu, deleting and starting a new; but they didnt' catch that you started from existing save

[atomic estuary]

And they usually go for a long distance

[slow nexus]

man this si crazy bruh tis almost happened to me but i salvaged it by my items went from 14 to 7

man fuck it im going on a 2hr journey to a minor settlement

[barren dune]

156355 save version 4201

[remote thunder]

you dont have latest update yet, update game

steam is on 160955

[barren dune]

yeah, looks like steam queued it for tomorrow prolly since i havent played in a few months

thank you

[feral venture]

Hello, is anyone else having a problem at the first pile of waste. The game is telling me to load 5 special waste and I do so but the game still says I have nothing inside the vehicle ?

[coral hinge]

is the expi live

oh it is, imma have to do that once i get home

[toxic garden]

i was there

[remote thunder]

special waste is the waste parts that you get from specialist industrial waste, have you been getting those?

[tight idol]

wait what? I just checked in the anomaly, and I could see the start expedition. Can you not access the anomaly inside the expedition?

[atomic estuary]

It seems like you don't even have a ship

[remote thunder]

seems no, because it happens on the same planet, and no access to a ship

[tight idol]

ohhh I see what you mean. Thank you

[remote thunder]

i havent played it yet though

[atomic estuary]

Your ship is nowhere to be seen and you can't buy any from an NPC

[pearl eagle]

So what was the consensus regarding packing items from the main save? No use since you don't get to anomaly?

[remote thunder]

yes, seems that way

[sand timber]

can people yoink stuff from your truck?

[atomic estuary]

Probably

[stuck marsh]

if anone cant see the waste. i found the problem. i had a mod loaded i forgot about

[pearl eagle]

Got it.. Think I may wait until tomorrow to start this one, seems a bit.... unpolished 🪲

[ornate portal]

no they cant

[feral venture]

probably but the thing is I see none of these

[ornate portal]

but parties can see each others trucks and help load/unload them

[safe cosmos]

Ngl, I’m digging that

[stuck marsh]

is there a way to keep the waste in the bed of the truck?

[ornate portal]

has anybody found all 8 inorganics that need to be scanned?

[remote thunder]

need to explore around basically. it might take a bit

[patent oar]

Yep

[remote thunder]

have to drive carefully and slowly sometimes

[feral venture]

okay thanks for the advice ! 😁

[stuck marsh]

i sseee that lol

[ornate portal]

what are the final 2 ive looked high and low

[stuck marsh]

it needs a magnet

magnet bed

[hard steppe]

Hey I'm having an issue

I need to scan creatures from my exocraft but I've already scanned all the creatures, is there a way around this?

[crystal karma]

Got into the expedition. How the heck do I get the lush world material that autocorrect hates for the colossus? Lol

[remote thunder]

it has borders to it, but not a ceiling - so if you bump it too hard, stuff might jump off

[simple raptor]

i just put like as much as i can in the bed and let most of it fly away
still have 5+ by the end

[plush onyx]

why does some waste have hp?

[patent oar]

I got 2 from caves, 2 small "pebbles" from mountains and rest are common ground rocks

[stuck marsh]

lol thats what i did.

[ornate portal]

ugh i just found one , so the other is a smallass rock too ..great ty

[remote thunder]

because it can be blown up, e.g. if you shoot a explosive waste, it will blow up nearby ones too - we can magnetize them, throw it at enemies...

[stuck marsh]

im so happy i can actually see the waste now, i was so pissed watching everyone do it and i couldnt lol

[plush onyx]

ohhh

[remote thunder]

😉

i'm actually quite excited about this lol

you can even magnetize sentinels themselves 😂

so good

[crystal karma]

Nvm; figured it out

[hexed badger]

is the expedition live right now

[crystal karma]

But we have no starship, right?

[remote thunder]

it seems not

[crystal karma]

O o f

[remote thunder]

unless you're on xbox/gp, yes

[crystal karma]

I normally do my saves for weeks; that’s why I was asking

[remote thunder]

sorry i didnt know the answer because i have not started the expedition yet

going to get it done rn

[grave helm]

@remote thunder do you happen to know about it?

[grave helm]

Is the world the exactly same for everyone?

[remote thunder]

oh yeah, terrain gen is supposed to be the same regardless of platform

afaik anyway, though i've seen a really weird situation recently involving switch2, which has to be a bug

[warped marlin]

does anyone know how to complete the "find 6 navigation points" quests in the last expedition? I save at the navigation points but it doesn't count apparently

[grave helm]

Oh those msgs of mine just loaded now

[remote thunder]

you're the 4th player i see reporting this issue. did you try with multiplayer disabled, and did you get the discovery or was it already discovered by someone else?

[blazing fossil]

You have a starship, it’s broken, you can repair it, you can’t take off until you finish the expedition

[celest bison]

true maybe thats why im not having any issues, ive been playing with mp off

[remote thunder]

oh i see

[celest bison]

every waypoint works like a charm

[blazing fossil]

cc @remote thunder

[warped marlin]

I am playing with multiplayer on, I will now try in singleplayer, thanks

[remote thunder]

so basically almost the same as not having a ship; i was wondering if they had done something like that - thanks

[blazing fossil]

Yeah

It’s pretty much like cartographers

[remote thunder]

i'd not be surprised by that

[remote thunder]

yeah

[lucid hatch]

so im on singleplayer and the waypoints still arnt working would restarting the game on singleplayer do something?

[grave helm]

Isn't having players around a fun factor of exps?

[remote thunder]

try to save, return to main menu, then load save again and retry

[molten gorge]

It’s only a matter of time before someone decides to make an Ice Road Truckers base now.

[remote thunder]

for some, yes

not for everyone though

[celest bison]

not this one i dont think.

i dont like expos that much anyways

i normaly cheat to speedrun them

[grave helm]

Wouldn't in this one be worse? Aren't the players looking for the same resources?

[celest bison]

get out of it as quick as posible

[celest bison]

exactly why im not in mp

while i dont think its an issue from my conversation here

its what i assumed from the start

and some people like to grief anyways

[stuck marsh]

where do i dump the 5 special wastes?

[celest bison]

so im not in mp to avoid that and just get this done ASAP

[remote thunder]

if you'd like to keep mp on, at least make sure that pvp is off

[stuck marsh]

crusher or fire thing?

[fair sun]

How do I get the chromatic metal and magnetised ferrite

[stuck marsh]

emeril

[fair sun]

Ooh

[celest bison]

this.

[stuck marsh]

in ur suit refiner

[celest bison]

never have PVP enabled

[fair sun]

Oh yeah

[celest bison]

i once acidentaly killed someone in the anomaly...

in permadeath noless

[native veldt]

Anyone having issues so far just wondering because I see a lot of people leaving the game

[remote thunder]

match the symbols - the furnace is for regular industrial waste, not specialist

[grave helm]

I wonder how pvp is in this game lol are players as curious as gta players?

[remote thunder]

some

some can be a pain

most are friendly and wont shoot first

[stuck marsh]

ty

[torpid oracle]

PvP is surprisingly similar- it's usually avoided because cheaters will kill you from a mile away

[celest bison]

as a general tip for everyone, mountain riges seem to be verry smooth (asside from the verry top)

they have made for great highways for me

[grave helm]

Why does this game even have PvP lol

[remote thunder]

yeah, definitely

[celest bison]

there are arenas.

people pvp

its actualy kinda fun'

[remote thunder]

even if it's tilted like 70 degrees to a side, cargo stays inside, all good

[celest bison]

dump all your stuff in storage, have tech damage off, and have fun with it

[lucid hatch]

tryed like 3 times still isnt working lol its fine i can wait for a patch

[remote thunder]

that said, from me one final note on pvp - if you dont want it to be 1-shot fest, dont use upgraded gear, use mining beam, all players should have the same gear loadout for more balance

join pvp communities

[stuck marsh]

how do u dump the bed on exo craft

[remote thunder]

yeah, probably just bugged. please raise a bug report when you get a bit of spare time

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

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

[warped marlin]

so I tried in singleplayer and I can confirm that the issue was infact the multiplayer

[remote thunder]

in the back, left side

[remote thunder]

thanks

[warped marlin]

thanks to you

[remote thunder]

@stuck marsh see image:

[atomic estuary]

Colossus needs cruise control, asap

[fair sun]

So this expedition unlocks the collosus customisation

[copper sedge]

Update for xbox out yet anyone?

[remote thunder]

not yet

[karmic plover]

These packages genuinely feel like paper

They have like no weight on em

😭

[copper sedge]

OK thanks buddy

[fair sun]

You do use an ANTI GRAVITY gun

[karmic plover]

I just hit a tiny tiny bump

And it all just got thrown

All 12 of em

[fair sun]

Try again

[karmic plover]

[fair sun]

And again

[karmic plover]

Ive tried to get this stuff to the processing plant for 1hr++

[naive crypt]

Okay hold up, there is a milestone about scanning a creature from the exocraft, what happens if you scanned all the creatures on the planet already?

[remote thunder]

one thing that i like is that i can park nearby the waste, be on top of the flatbed, and mag pull them

[fair sun]

Give up NOW

[karmic plover]

Ill just log off for today

[remote thunder]

bug/softlock atm

[karmic plover]

Its so excruciating

[naive crypt]

Oof, good thing I noticed that

[remote thunder]

always pays off to review all milestones before getting started

[celest bison]

sketchy drive

[shut ridge]

There's a 8 mineral scan milestone

[karmic plover]

They really need to tone down the physics on these stuff

[remote thunder]

you're a great truck driver, you got this

[shut ridge]

But just 4 on the planet

[karmic plover]

Ive found 7

Check underground

And look for tiny rocks

Those are scannable

[plush onyx]

nothing can go wrong:)

[remote thunder]

slow wins the race

[karmic plover]

Goodluck

[celest bison]

oh i know, im goated, i have across 3 platforms 4k hours on this game

lol

[remote thunder]

lol

[celest bison]

lol, i nice works

[celest bison]

looking to make this 5k this year, makbe'

[karmic plover]

Man i dont even use the boost and shit keeps getting flung

We do get closed bed trucks right?

[remote thunder]

really try go for the smoothest path possible

[celest bison]

i wish

i WISH

that we had tiedowns.

[karmic plover]

I tried, went around obstacles too

[celest bison]

even if it made unloading harder

[karmic plover]

But like just a TINY bump

[celest bison]

IT WOULD MAKE THIS SO MUCH EASIER AND LESS FRUSTRATING

[celest bison]

THIS

THIS RIGHT HERE

[karmic plover]

Boom it all just explodes

[lofty sandal]

wait is there a new expedition

[remote thunder]

i've noticed that they often get damaged by just terrain assets like some taller plants

[celest bison]

i had my cargo slide down 1000u

[remote thunder]

xbox/gp/gog/mac dont have it yet

[celest bison]

on a hill

[karmic plover]

Im not worried about it getting destroyed

[celest bison]

i wanted to snap my neck right then and there.

[celest bison]

EXACTLY

[karmic plover]

Im just sad that a tiny ass bump just fks me over

[celest bison]

EXACTLY

[plush onyx]

.....

[celest bison]

i am internaly crashing out every 3 seconds

[karmic plover]

Like a 10 min drive turns into a 20 min

[celest bison]

y e p

[fringe agate]

Do you have a terrain manipulator?

[karmic plover]

Bcs i need to pick it up again every time

[celest bison]

im so close to the end

[karmic plover]

Make roads or smth?

[celest bison]

i have, one site remaining to go to

[fringe agate]

Flatten anything you need to, sure

[native veldt]

Why is everyone leaving my game

[karmic plover]

Thatd work

[celest bison]

yknow, if multiplayer terain edits saved better

[frozen frigate]

hey the expedition is live now right?

[karmic plover]

But i mean

Its like 10 minutes away

Oh man

[celest bison]

and the terrain tools where better, imagine the roads people would make

[karmic plover]

I still have 2

[frozen frigate]

then wheres mine?

[karmic plover]

And the rock scan

💀

And the sentinels

[celest bison]

this expo would have been so cool for multiplayer if we could have built roads

[remote thunder]

what platform are you on?

[frozen frigate]

pc

i got the update but not the expedition

[celest bison]

tip for the reorienting one: spam right click 64 times, on one sentinel

dont have to agro, get 3 blaster upgrades.

[karmic plover]

Ah thanks for the tip

[frozen frigate]

this happened with the last one too and was only fixed when i manually downloaded the expedition cache thing. where can i find that

[celest bison]

do not launch it to, that will agro

[remote thunder]

pc steam?

[frozen frigate]

yup

[remote thunder]

what's the number you see lower left main menu?

[celest bison]

THE END IS IN SIGHT

[frozen frigate]

let me check

[celest bison]

THE END TO A 30 MIN DRIVE

[karmic plover]

Does the mechanical legs make this easier in any way? @celest bison

[frozen frigate]

160955 (savve version 4204)

[stuck marsh]

when do you get the scope for exo craft ? what phase?

[karmic plover]

GG

[celest bison]

you dont get them till the end 😢

[karmic plover]

Phase 4 right?

[celest bison]

i still have, one more place to go to, and bring back 5 cargo from

[celest bison]

well, im about to find out i guess haha

[karmic plover]

[remote thunder]

so if you:

• main menu, new game: exp not available?
• load a save, goto anomaly expedition terminus, does it let you start one?
• while save loaded, discoveries menu lower left, connection to online discovery services active?

[celest bison]

did i mention i did this expo, without a crosshair

(i had a mod thats broken cus of the update)

good thing i have played 1.4k hours of tf2, the center of my screen is ingraned into my mind from airshot practice.

[frozen frigate]

not in the main menu, not in the anomaly and i cant connect to the servers.
this happened in expedition 20 as well, its the result of the dorm's internet

thats why i said that the cache was the only solution (that i know of)

[celest bison]

wow you where right

guess its time to see how that goes.

[daring briar]

How do I dinf my way back to that equipment area ?

[remote thunder]

try using a vpn like proton

[frozen frigate]

alright ill update you

[remote thunder]

so cool

[celest bison]

oh my god it might 😭

ACTUALY MAKE THINGS EASIER

[karmic plover]

thank god

Im done for the day

[remote thunder]

hmm, depends, if there's a mission still attached to it there should be a hud marker - sorry not quite sure what led you here

[karmic plover]

Ill pick it back up tmrw

Also

Anyone know what rocks do i need to look out for?

Im missing 1 more and im certain its a small rock but idk what

[rain laurel]

Not gonna lie and no offense to the devs but this might be the "WORST" Expedition so far

[cobalt bear]

anyway, PSA

if you're lucky enough to get speed upgrades for your engine rather then fuel ones

you want to put the speed upgrades in the supercharged slots, not the engine in one

[karmic plover]

even with more speed

[cobalt bear]

you go notably faster then putting the engine in a supercharge slot

[karmic plover]

shit still gets flung out

[cobalt bear]

no, yeah, it's... pretty bad

now, it could have been made substantially better

or, less worse

[karmic plover]

Going slow kinda doesnt help too

[cobalt bear]

if they had tweaked the spawn logic for this expedition specifically

[shut ridge]

I'm gonna go to phase four , just get the legs

[celest bison]

caves have 2 rocks for every nms planet, 2 large rocks, a medium to small rock, and the last 3 are small

[karmic plover]

Ah ight

I got 2 cave rocks

I just need the small ones

[celest bison]

one of them is orb shaped, one is a flat plate, and one is jagged and small

[cobalt bear]

like oh boy, i unlocked the radar upgrade

maybe i can go ahead and sell some of these items clogging up my inventory

[karmic plover]

Oh orb

[celest bison]

all 3 can be found in rocky clearings

[karmic plover]

Thanks

[cobalt bear]

'absolutely f**cking not,' said the game

[rain laurel]

The walking portion had already made be irritated

[karmic plover]

I tried that too

[frozen frigate]

that didnt work either

[hexed badger]

Where do I get parafinnium on this planet

[rain laurel]

I tried that as well

[karmic plover]

Refine pyrite & ferrite

[cobalt bear]

note: trading posts always spawn one hour away

because the spawn logic assumes you're flying to them in a ship. you are not.

[hollow marten]

I haven't played yet. If it takes place on one planet, then are you able to go to the anomaly to grab items you take with you?

[karmic plover]

No

[cobalt bear]

if the logic was adjusted to fit the expedition speed lock, then that'd be okay

[celest bison]

interesting development, this gets caught on dihydrogen crystals

[hollow marten]

You don't get a ship then?

[cobalt bear]

as well as bringing down the 5 minute spawn for heaps and centers to 2 minutes out

[karmic plover]

If stuff doesnt get flung out, i wouldve finished this a long time ago

[rain laurel]

Honestly whats the point of trying to give yourself materials for the expedition if you don't even get to start with them (have to get to anomaly first)

[cobalt bear]

then the drive there and back in the slowest, most unboostable vehicle would be more tolerable

[karmic plover]

But the physics actually fuckkss me over everytime

[cobalt bear]

there isn't one

[karmic plover]

10 min drive becomes 20

[cobalt bear]

you can't get to the anomally

[celest bison]

same

[karmic plover]

So does the leg actually help?

[cobalt bear]

they made an update about how they added wacky physics jank and then an expedition about fighting it

[karmic plover]

So i dont bump into rocks again..

[cobalt bear]

if nothing else they should seriously boost the strength of the containment field if they insist on having us drive up mountains constantly

[rain laurel]

So you don't reach the anomaly in this expedition?

[cobalt bear]

no.

[karmic plover]

So real

[cobalt bear]

you spend the entire expedition on foot or in your collossus.

nowhere else. you have no ship.

[rain laurel]

Bruh

[patent oar]

I feel like its strong enough

[rain laurel]

Would've been nice to know that before hand oh well

[cobalt bear]

this is one of the most skippable expeditions released to date lol

[signal igloo]

ironman challenge ah?

[celest bison]

seemingly, it looks more stable, havent gotten any cargo in it yet

but it gets caught on dihygrogen cystals, verry easily

even the tiny ones

[karmic plover]

Try hauling 10 cargo from the waste to the processing unit, 15 min drive

[karmic plover]

Oh man
