Oof
smh
What makes it so bad?
I dont know what other complaints are cause I just got here, but maybe bugs.... cant find my ship, craft base computer or refiner, you know the basinc things I dont see the option to do
would it really be so hard to invent so damn ratchetstraps
ship is saved for later you are wearing the refiner
- you're not going to use a ship to complete this expedition, it's focused on colossus exocraft
- no need for a base either
- personal refiner mk2 is pre-installed on your suit's tech inventory
here are the minerals you need to find for one of the mission
I'm almost free. Just need to grab more barrels on the way.
@shy blaze let's stick to NMS media only here, per pinned rules: #nms-expedition message
memes only go in
#memes🤡 (where you can post with Familiar role - xp level 5 - run !FamiliarRole in #bot-spam for deets).
Just need more waypoints too.
Jesus Christ! thank you! I didnt even think to check the exo suit refiner that was a recent thing I JUST got in my main save. Thank you!
I'm confused, why is it bad?
oh dear - its a nice one I was taking advantage of the increased returns of the mk2
Play it. Then you will see.
I'm on Xbox, I can't play it
Tedious, frustrating, long, and the grav gun was a huge, huge let down.
so i had 5/6 scanned, i scanned the last one and the objective finished itself, seems there are a bit of some fail saves, but i doubt it works properly if all were scanned previously
We can't use them, cuz it's just So Fun to search for dropped cargo --
Ah ok
How find paraffium on first planet
is there a workaround for repeated marking of the same location?
refine pyrite+dust
🙏
Or silver + oxygen
I've had to restart the expedition from scratch. I'm manually saving after each milestone to avoid getting softlocked again. 🫠
❓
Oh no!
Like this expedition wouldn't be completely terrible if we could fly to the destination, spawn the exocraft. Then truck on back.
why cant you?
no ship
weird
I feel like mine wanted to explain that recipe but didn't... Had to look that up quick.
no ship cause they want us to crawl, not run
I put a save beacon down
It's about the journey, not the destination
Apologies for the momentary pause in this channel. I promise it's for a good cause once we get some pinned guides in place... 
Please hold...

Thank you for your patience! And apologies for the inconvenience 
so is the expedition out already?
For some yes
💤😴 😭. Maybe for you. But not for me 👍
How do I handle the Waypoints? I managed to handle one but its not accepting others
Make sure the milestone is selected, turn multiplayer off, relog, pray.
How do I disable Multiplayer?
Nvm, done.
Do we ever get our ships back??
can someone explain this to me? I didnt think you used a ship for this one
I got my ship after doing Road Trip V (final one), still cant get different (so no going to anomoly to trade for better ship)
from what I understood, the challenge wants you to interact with the location termials, the flagpole things at 6 locations that you can't find using the radart
use Colossus radar to find structures, most have waypoint beacons
thanks
These things.
9 min travel time to monolith 
ohhhh ok thanks i was pulling my hair out lol
my closest trade terminal is an hour away in the Colossus
I wish any of my trips were that short
Oof
Where do I get paraffinum?
Ok these stupid small cylinder flammable canisters are flying out CONSTANTLY
It tells you how to refine it
Pyrite and ferrite
Thanks a lot
Can someone please explain this to me?
Yeah, it's broke. Make sure the milestone is selected, turn multiplayer off, relog, pray.
Aaaaand done!
😒 😒 😒 😒
I haven't played the game since before giant planets. Will that affect me playing this expedition?
not really
be careful doing that one or youll be really far away from the next salavge site
the other annoying thing is my inventory is full of junk and Ive got no way to sell
delete it
No, Really?
you weill get the sale rocket eventually
As long as you don't remember anything about why you liked NMS you should be fine.
I accidentally lost all my special waste to a very steep hill and the junk yard doesn’t have any more special waste. What do I do now
https://i.imgur.com/aA5zIcd.png do phase 4
@hexed badger find another one
4 of 5 completed.
I keep scanning and it only shows me the same one
you clearly dont get sarcasm
save and reload?
did anyone manage to fix Roadsigns milestone?
I turned multiplayer offline, went to menu and back in, restarted the game. no dice
I just scanned out buildings and whatnot that has the save beacons near them.
putting down a save point, use it, trigger waypoint, quit, reload reapeat, worked for me, offline btw
scanned?
wait, why a save point?
it wants you to inteact with the save points at POIs
I know?
it will reload as though the waypoint is fresh but still gets registered in the expedition
I just tried this one and it didn't work
oh
so charting counts as autosave?
Use the vehicles radar to scan out the building like how you would a monolith, but you're searching other types of buildings.
ohhh. so you have to head to a scanned building in order for it to work?
Pretty much.
this terrain makes gravel roads seem better by comperison
the wording sounds to me like it wants buildings you CAN'T scan for, but people have said that ones you can scan for work
The terrain is terrible.
So, how much like Death Stranding is this expedition 🤣 i know someone already said it, right?
they need to add actual suspension to colossus ngl
how does the waypoint work?
its not so much the terrain as the cargo has no weight and is too easily thrown from the truck
cant get to make even 1 out of 6
Where am I gonna find more points, I scanned for some but idk what to go to specifically
I have 2/6
Yup, wouldn't kill them to add tarps and ratchet straps like what we have in real life.
abandoned buldings have waypoints
went to one and didnt count ;-;
Tysm
who even thought this was good for this expedition'
Fell into ten holes, I have recordings too
its not exactly fun anymore picking up cargo cause it fell cause u hit a plant with the same density of a idiot running into traffic
anyone thats played snowrunner will be cursing this expedition for sure
solution for not fighting sentinels when harvesting balls: harvest balls, climb in truck and Nyoom the heck outta dodge
I can't find my starship, was nowhere to be seen from the start
Yeah, I fell into a few myself, had to resummon the colossus. Pain.
Casually walking away also works. Sentinels are pretty stupid.
now my roadside is acting up only 1 save counted when ive been to 5
Also I went into some kind of conflict zone and almost died
Had no clue what was shooting at me
This Expedition sucks
ive seen worse
After I complete this expedition I know exactly what planet to put the colossus on
I'm loving it, but I guess that's because I love Death Stranding 🤣
No starship, won't register my waypoints and the damn exocraft is shit
go offline, drop a save beacon, use it, trigger waypoint, quit, reload, repeat until complete
ty so much
shut down entirely the game or just leave the save?
This expedition is silly but in the best way possible.
It's so stupid, trucking around everywhere, picking up scrap and what not, but it's so peaceful too
Uhhhhhhhhhh.... how do I find my geobay?
i didnt even know you could do these offline that alone is a big help
i quit to desktop
what do we do about the Safari milestone if we already have 5 out of the 6 creatures scanned?
also which one?
That’s easy you look for it
how ;;
i only had left
scan the last one with the cyclops and it will compleate with only one
I don’t know
ok, now I have to still find it
I just want my damn starship
using the save beacon did not count either
"waaa buttooon do ii puuush???" Stop it everyone!
Did you try calling it Trilli
You can use other peoples. I saw like six or seven in the area around where I was working
ya the save beacon is not working im cooked!
I just deconstructed my geobay after I spawned the truck
It's broken, I never got a waypoint for the starter ship
They will probably patch this in the next few days.
there's no ship until exp end by design
ya i might just wait until then because its frustrating. thanks for all the help
because you don't get one.
The expedition did warn that you will only have an Exocraft for the duration of it
So putting anything in the Anomaly to pick up was just a waste of time?
Softlocked again on the waypoints. 💀
I think I'm done with this exp. No cool outfit for me 😔
pretty much
i've always raw dogged expeditions, so meh no biggie
So outside of parts to an exocraft I never intend to use why should I bother doing this expedition
Nobody is forcing you to tho?
Very strong word of advice, DO NOT accept the rewards for the Field Guide milestone until you have areliable way to sell
Not even going to finish the stack
heirloom customization set is gorgeous
it just filled my inventory with bones
So you don’t get fomo AND then have to do it in 2 weeks in December.
You have 6 weeks. Come back to it slowly if you need to
What are the chances it takes roughly a week for this expedition to reach consoles? Sorry if this question has already been asked
There is that, I just hate the way they set this one up, worst type of planet to have a cumbersome vehicle on
anyway to fix the softlock of the waypoints? ;-;
as much as i hated this expo, at least it was a barely fun chalenge because of the terrain
this update is so mid outside of the bad expo tho
I've built at least 10 geobays to recover my colossus from a god damn hole, I'm spending more time getting resources for that thing then getting the waypoints done
heres hoping it plays into another update
@worldly zenith deconstruct one of them and keep the materials on hand
Wait for a patch is what I’m doing. I typically wait for a few days to start the expo bc there always seems to be 1 bug that soflocks it. But they will fix it soon.
As long as we are putting reports into Zendesk that is.
Yeah Im definitely waiting for the expedition 😭
darn... i wanted that suit!
ok so it just isnt giving progress for the chart waypoints task. i been driving for like an hour and charting waypoints and no progress
Wait what? As long as you have a geobay on the planet you should be able to summon it from the summoning menu. Like all exos
-# Am I really the only one without an issue with the waypoints?
i freaking envy you right now lol
Apparently lol
I've also had it ignore 4 of the waypoints it tells us to get, 2 drop pods didn't register an observatory and an abandoned building, none of the waypoint/navdata worked
Lmao I'm sorry XD
I really had no problems, except for my driving skills this expo is smooth so far
Finally got all 6
what did you do?
I hate the travel times for this though
possibly
HOW?
For people who are having issues, make sure you make a bug report to the zendesk!
really, i've give your arm and a leg for some toxic barrels, right about now
Also the damn exocraft keeps sending me to the same points
oh fuck me i'm never finishing this
i've been to like 12 and it just wont log any progress past 3
did you had to find more than 6?
you got to 3, I'm still stuck at one after visiting 10 posts
is it bad to mention when i had to find the 6 waypoints, it already gave me 1/6 from the get go?
..i have to gravity-flip 32 sentinels :')
you can flip the same group of sentinels
can i just find one and flip it over and over without starting a fight
are we gonna have to redo this whole thing?
Just grab one, point into the sky straight up and spam right and left click
all I gotta do is salvage 4 toxic waste and im done with exp
ooh i'll try with mouse, been playing with controller
Or controller, just whatever your grab and shoot buttons are
How’s the expedition?
you can bully 1 Sentinel 32 times
👎
Oh boy
Looks like I’m in for a treat huh? lol
stuck at 0/6 waypoints, they dont register and it takes half an our to move from point to point
cant be rushed , for sure
yeah its ass
!hg
Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
if i have to restart again i am gonna uninstall this game
Oh yeah with the colossus. Slowest vehicle ever
There! Send your feedback and bug reports there!
i understand it to be slow, but dude the terrain is all mountains, and your stuff get yeeted if you move wrong in a hill
Shit I had the little combustible canisters flying out every so many meters. Just regular driving. Those drove me nuts
the trade rocket should have been given in the first phase
agree
Yeah. The most anxiety I’ve ever had.
But otherwise is a pretty chill expedition.
Do you get upgrades to make the colossus move faster?
Also random cave holes.
Oh yeah, you get those at each “go of the next junk heap” milestone,
will "feedback" fix the 5 hours wasted on this?
Yes. I think at the second to last objective you get engine modules. At least on the first two. I haven’t gotten through third yet
bad idea when hauling cargo, faster move = easier for cargo to bounce out of flatbed
the cargo keeps momentum if you suddenly stop or go off a jump
I didn’t know they can bounce off. Eww lol that sucks
Any Switch 2 players here?
Yeah those s-rank upgrades were a little jarring to put in.
where's the first waste heap?
Question, are we locked to this one planet for the expedition?
That’s my feedback for them. Need to fix collision/weight on the waste and the waypoints obviously
Yes.
Your ship doesn’t become available until after you’re done.
Dang lol wasted bringing stuff over then
Should be able to scan in your colossus
Have you used the radar to find points that people haven't found already? I would also recommend keeping multiplayer off specifically for that step
i just register another waypoint and did nothing ;-;
oh yeah that one is glitched
are you on pc?
i tried
yes
You may want to turn off multiplayer and reload.
if you leave multiplayer off, you can find waypoints that havent already been activated
i had it off and reloaded
i am but it has no site indicated
can anyone explain why when i had 5 pieces of special cargo i went to drive on the platform and they all just dissapeared after i spent 30 mins gathering them
do i need to shut down my internet for the waypoints to work?
When on that step for the expedition, when I used the radar to scan for waste dumps I would get the classic expedition symbol. Once it took two scans.
disable multiplayer, save+return to main menu, load save again, try finding a new waypoint, have the right milestone selected
you were not supposed to use the platform, but manually offload them to their respective places
here take a look at this
there was the first one i went to but no others
look at the msg I replied to and follow that rq
worked for me
There is a expedition rn?
Yes
dang it, thanks
god everyone being on the same world is making it buggy AD
Sad trolls name ferrite rock ‘big rock’
sick, not big fan of cheating but i think this is a good exception, would this ruin my main save in any way?
It’s a fairly simple one. Just takes a few hours during to being planet-locked.
yeah I too dont like to cheat but its literally glitched and its just waypoints so
no it shouldnt
Planet locked? Nice:)
so there's the first one it doesn't count so what direction do i need to go?
all it is I believe is just changing the value so that the game thinks you got the 6 waypoints
Bro i had 10 special items in my colossus after i travelled ten minutes. My game crashed
lost my sentienl free run to a hard crash
This expedition is 10/10 ragebait, I love it
Trucker simulator but with twice as many potholes and human sized rocks
Man, I have never felt so much relief to be done with an expedition, or possibly anything.
is anyone actually going to do this stuff outside of this expedition?
I got a flat planet ive been wanting to try this on
is anyone gonna tell me which direction the first checkpoint is at i'm at the intial waste disposal site i'm at the one you basically start at
your scanner is everything
I think the two biggest QoL adjustments are the amount of resources you get from the front module, and the amount of nanites you get from junk.
Scan for it
doesn't help when the first checkpoint isn't in range
If you installed the scanner
Well this trap ends the expedition for me anyway, I'm stuck behind a drop pod
I got enough units for a freighter just from selling crap
just give me the direction otherwise i won't find it lmao
knowing my luck i'll go in the wrong direction
Bro you literally have to scan for it idk what else to say :p it appeared for me
Or reload the mission
Yeah, I have like 430mil units.
have you tried just reloading a save? perhaps it's worth to lose some progress to be able to start playing again, depending on how long ago was that last save
3 times now
but which direction, its not appearing on my scans im at the waste disposal site you start at which isn't in scanning range of the first checkpoint
I actually dont remember im unreliable mb
so scanning for it helps very little
did you try reloading restore point? your restore point save slot shouldnt be in there
What should one bring with into the expedition
cant retrieve anything from the space anomaly
Got knocked back into that corner playing fetch with a sentinel
nothing, you wont be able to get it anyways
I mean like mats and whatnot
I'm a day one player dude, not a newb, both were the same timestamp
You cant get anything from the space anomaly. Mats and all
will be unable to reach Anomoly until after you finish because you have no access to ship until then
So the “materials” and “tech” sections in the start expedition menu are useless?
Yes
Mannnn
ok north south east or west, which direction do i need to travel for the first checkpoint?
scanner
I looked and found the waypoint
who designed this garbage expeditio??
i'm at the starter waste despostal site from there which direction do i travel
usually if you use the Colossus Radar to look for Waste Dumps (like using it to look for buildings), while you have the milestone selected, it will auto-find the RDV point
Yes!!
So this is messed up, went back to primary save, then reloaded the Autosave and it put me back in the expo, at least I'm free from the booth
i never said you were a noob - you're asking for help, i'm trying to think what i'd do to fix it. to me, restore point being the same timestamp as autosave doesn't really make much sense, because i'm in control of restore point, it only happens when i want it to. try joining another player' session to get out and continue
ah nice!
nicely done, hadnt thought of that one!
Watching this chat today has been comical, worrying, vulgar and entertaining. I'll be home this weekend. Looking forward. . . . . Looking sideways to playing this expedition
ok i just had to turn off multiplayer which is why it wasn't working. FML its so buggy with other players
Yeah I turned multi-player off too, fixed a ton of bugs
Man this expo is a PITA, I did manage to mess with a whole squad of sentinels at least with the grav gun, and they couldn't find me behind the pod
Let me get those waypoints faster too
for me the scan wasn't even working propperly
so many bugs fixable, just by disabling multiplayer
it would half do the scan
When I loaded into the exp for the first time, people were floating, flying, and glitching out of existence
Even looks good on Geks, woo!
i saw i swear NMS was having a digital sezure
when I got on multiplayer all the other players were just black boxes
Nice clothes!!! Freshh
How do we unlock more customizations?
Players got censored lmao
Is there anything for the rest of us to wear. Or only gekwear
Here's me falling into the abyss after I did NOT see that hole
That's for everyone. Usually the armor sets look like garbage on Geks, but this one works really well.
and hello games thought NMS could handle so many people at 1 time?
this expedition has taught me to be extra vigilant for hardened air...and that hardened air exists
Oh yeah pretty sure I was carrying good stuff
Me too bro me too....
learning new things every day
Hitting a plant at 1mph and losing all my cargo has taught me many things...
NOoooooooooooooo
I was gonna change my exo craft cabin, but it kept putting me inside when I wanted to modify, and when I got out it glitched out! RAAAA
my only gripe with the truck so far: the dump button is in a really dumb place, ive lost cargo to stepping out of the craft then accidentally pressing the dump button than i have to bumpy terrain (which has been a lot)
requesting spoiler: is there something down the line that helps the flatbed hold cargo better?
Not sure
lol no
as a former trucker, I do not miss this
ok quick restart fixed my issue :3
As a former NMS trucker, me neither
As a NMS explorer with a very small starship, what is this
Sorry if my question was already asked before, but why are my save points not counting towards the expedition objective? :p
how do I find 8 minerals??
Turn off multiplayer, save and relog, makwe sure the milestone is selected, keep trying.
How many you got
4
@mossy breach just keep scanning
There's some areas with grey ground and 2 small rock types
lucky, I got 3..
Alright... I did turn off multiplayer, relogged, but I guess maybe if I do that over and over, something different will happen..
I don't mean to sound snide, you just literally have to keep looking
nah I know it's just a pain
txh!
ok the off-set cabin looks sick af
There's this if you get real desperate: #nms-expedition message
also why is it recommended to go offline?
For what
Can I return to a previously visited waste dump to keep collecting special waste?
and If I were to dig a roughly exocraft sized tunnel from that waste dump all the way to the disposal site, how long would that tunnel stick around before the terrain regenerated?
no the milestone has a waypoint system you need to get to
I think it kept sending me to the same place and it kept respawning. Not 100% sure though.
the waypoint bug
Thanks, I might just try that. Not glad to go to such measures but this bug is horrible.
I am like 99% sure it sent me to different places
Well, if you are talking about the file hack, then you have to be offline otherwise it reverts to the old version of the file. If you're talking about the general advice, it's to turn multiplayer off, not go offline. And doing that just fixes a lot of questing bugs in general, because HG's multiplayer code is a joke.
can you trigger your flatbed to dump while still in the truck?
tho they could add that to the exocraft menu, it would be cool
oh well, just thought it would make the delivery easier
btw, is ot only me, or do you not get progression for the special scrap if you use the auto clear option?
looking in the JSON file right now, searching for the right parameter to edit xD This is like finding a needle in a haystack
Not just you
you are supposed to manually sort them
thanks
NVM. Windows notepad has a Ctrl+F feature.
Yeah made that mistake the first time I brought them back.
Oh my gosh I finally got the trade rocket. Now I won't keep hearing my suit telling me that my invcentory is full
welp I am missing 1 single rock to find..
hey hey hey, f my life cuz this will be painful
If you are missing a mineral, it's probably the one on mountaintops. There's a second, much smaller rock:
Possibly the cave cobalts (top and bottom). Everything else seemed pretty easy to find
Had those from the start.
But thanks anyway, I'll just look around :3
ok found it..
I was just..you know..standing right next to it
i would enjoy this expedition. if it wasnt drive to one point to another with a truck for a few hours.
oh well
Agreed. I don't play No Man's Sky to play Bob the Builder. 🫤
OH MY GOSH ONE OF THE TRUCK CUSTOMIZATIONS IS GIANT ROBOT LEGS!! I DID NOT REALIZE THAT WAS FOR THE TRUCK!
I've been going around this planet for atleast 2 hours straight trying to find the radioactive barrels. no luck so far ig.
It gets stuck on Di-hydrogen crystals so be careful lmao
i wish i had grabbed all those waypoints i found, now im having to travel a lot to get the ones i need
do the mechanical legs seem to make the truck steadier or is that confirmation bias? (as an arachnophobe i hate it)
I am excited for the spider legs
not at all, they just look crazy
Makes the truck steadier I'd say
but..gets stuck on everything
yea i noticed it got stuck on just dihydrogen crystals lol
..how.
It's LEGS how hard is it to just STEP OVER IT
Stopping every few yards to put a small tank that slid right through the orange "forcefield" back in the truck is horribly frustrating
worse when you lose it when it rolls away down 3 hills...
for me the camera would be low enough, and SOME HOW the mining laser mines the stuff you have in your truck >:(
I mean..At least the thing has MAD range on the magnetism right?
- Items in expedition terminal only accessible after completion
- You must complete ALL of phase 5 to unlock your ship
- You can save/reload to make special waste respawn at heaps (usually)
- You can do all the Checkpoints first, then do all the Road Trips at the same time
- You DON'T get credit for the special scrap if you use the "auto clear" option at the console
- If you can't place your geobay, try placing it at the starting processing plant. If that doesn't work, go offline and walk far away from where you were (reporting bases no longer works)
- You can finish
Roadsignsearly by using the first waypoint, then saving and reloading and using it again. You can also skip it until you have a ship, which makes finishing it legitimately easier - If you can't to complete the "Safari" milestone, try discovering all the fauna on the planet AND uploading them in the Discoveries tab.
If you scanned all fauna but one didn't count for the milestone AND you started the expedition from an existing save, switch to your primary save, go to the expedition system, scan a fauna on another world, switch back to expedition save, upload the fauna.
You can also do this (PC only):
Close the game.
In your nms cache dir there is aSEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON. For Steam it will be something like%APPDATA%\HelloGames\NMS\{steam id}\cache
Open that in any text editor, find"^ALL_CREATURES", after that you will see"Amount":6,- change that to"Amount":0,
Turn on offline mode, or block NMS.exe from accessing the internet somehow, open the game, load your save and it should autocomplete.
You can now go back online, just make sure you save after completing. - Portal address (Lostr Major): https://i.imgur.com/DsTcXj9.png
- If you are missing a mineral, it may be the one on the gray-looking ground. There's a second, much smaller rock (see below). If it's not that one, it may be the rock tree or the second mineral in the cave.

worse when it is a box and it rolls away
Hauling bouncy cargo in the truck without a strap
For the love of the game
We're not in it for the effeciency. It's just for the love of the game
wow i could have known to get all the checkpoints first earlier. ah well, im almost done with the 5th rofl
@solemn bane Thanks for helping us, much appreciated
Helpful notes. If you think any of them should be pinned, let us know. At least to help others in the meantime cc @remote thunder
Yay, 3rd waypoint is 45 minutes away
Yeah I was gonna @ dream gleam to pin that message. I was just working on formatting.
This expedition is so hilarious
There is a "dump materials" lever you can accidentally press. The other side should be "cover/uncover load" and the orange field actually does its job.
I hate this expedition so MUCH..AND I KNOW I CAN ALWAYS LEAVE IT, but I want that armor so BADLY 😭
I am also playing purely to unlock the cosmetic, lol. I must have my limited time accessory.
I'm really out here trucking as if I was living paycheck to paycheck in a game
I wouldn't have a problem with it, if there were quicker ways to get from point A to point B more quickly...
I started driving towards this processing plant that was 6 minutes away 19 minutes ago and its still 4 minutes away because the load spillage delays lmao
flamethrower on a truck..that is some mad max ish right there..
"6 minutes away 19 minutes ago"
that is just..so funny
Yeah I can't even be mad at this point, it's just hilarious
hmm, so all I got left is find minerals and the broken waypoint objectives...
are there even 8 minersals to find?
:/
There are 8, yes. I found them all
This is the worst expedition rn ever
I agree it is the worst. But for some reason, I'm starting to feel like no other expedition made me feel more invested and attached to such a mundane task, it's almost enriching
like my cargo is my pets or my children and I can't leave them behind.
I keep getting stuck, and forfeit all the stuff that I got and this isn't right. Also got attack winged a lot. And im not able to finish these last two.
?ITs an interesting change of pace, but im not going to be doing this after the exped
I genuinely have to restart this whole expedition because I messed up so badly
?How so?
That is ALL that I have to do. But the game keeps taking it ALL away from me.
The amount of times I got out of the damn truck to pick up 1 single piece of scrap even tho me having it would change nothing because there are countless more ahead...is uncountable
well here's me having to go crusing for 1 radioactive and 4 toxic containers
The special trip 1 wasn't registering and I got so much and deposited so much that the closes special waste is 30 minutes or more away
ok @wraith venture or @fringe agate feel free to pin that message. It's based on the questions I saw asked a lot here while I was tearing my hair out finishing this expedition. It's right at the character limit so I'll hit you up if there's more to add, but I think I may go hide under a rock for a few months, lol.
the road trips? just need to make sure you have the check point first
Made me forget it was a game at all.
Anyone else able to find their ship?
I kinda wish the Gravity coil was a model that was like, a default one iykwim?
Every time I dunk a garbage into my truck like Kobe, I feel a sense of weight on my shoulders, a responsibility but a sense of dread, knowing what lies ahead.
no ships on this exped
Like, It looks really cool, I wish it didn't swap away when I switch to weapons or mining tools
My ship was parked around 500 au from my first processing center. Found it totally by chance
I saw a few people with one, not only that but how are we suppose to get paraffinium when its on another planet?
refine pyrite and ferrite dust
You can do that?! Thank you so much! I've been stuck for 2 hours
the people with a ship already finished their exped
your ship is in the map, it just can't be launched during the mission
Pinned! Thank you so much for taking the time with these notes and helping out the community with those tips. If you have issues with character limits, definitely reach out. We can always use embeds through Gunter too.
Has anyone get stuck with scanning 8 minerals and naming some? It says that I have scanned all 5 on this planet.
nope, there are more than 8 available
Oh ok, I keep looking. Thanks.
I also have yet to see the auto-loader at the plant count for the special materials missions :/ what a waste
you are supposed to sort it manually
That was unclear, primate pressed "yes" to auto-crush.
yea it is kinda silly that it tells you about Auto-Loading, only to then tell you "sort it by hand" lol.
ok, 10 minute drive. The toothpicks are going back in the keyboard
Look at this hot load of garbage
im not the only one that misread this as minecraft at first right
I can already tell there are gonna be people who will make a "Player made company" about cleaning up planets lmao
wait..I THOUGHT IT DID 😭 what do you mean it doesn't?!
I do recycling as a side gig and joke about being captain planet regularly. This is supposed to be escapism
I read it as "minecart", but I did think of Minecraft
Does anyone have tips for finding the fauna?
i have a talent for finding every hole on this planet and driving into them
they will usually look like blinking red dots on the scanner, so just try to look for that with the scanner active
the holes on this planet are magnetic
Truck-kun yearns for the hole
will getting run over by the Colossus isekai you?
I wish the horn was louder
I keep trying but it immediately brakes when I exit the vehicle
eurgh, 10 minutes with a full load
so what options do you have if you are short on certain refuse, like radioactive and toxic?
Anyone having trouble chatting waypoints?
Anyone have any tips this is my first expedition
I didn't, but I only used ones that you couldn't find with the Colussus scanner
The spider legs make this bearable.
@round cape wait for another one
Even though it feels like a giant spider that would scare me if I saw this approaching.
Especially with S class engine upgrades.
??
Ive tried a few but none of them are registering. I turned off multiplayer but still no.
@round cape this expedition is a crap show, not a great showing to do for your first
Really?? But the new armour set is sooooo cool it's what made me wanna start doing these
Waypoints?
Oh yeah I just moved with objectives, scan for building, scan for pod.
is it that fast to make it look uncanny?
After each one move a certain number of units away before doing again.
Yes.
It is like you scared a spider in your house LOL.
lmao can't wait.
Spider legs are literally one of my most favorite impractical designs on vehicles
Starts off nice and slow and then it barrels whatever direction you send it.
@round cape then my recomendation is don't open milestone rewards right away, unless you can immediately use what you would get. You don't get a regular way to sell stuff until very late. Otherwise, just hard work
Yeah this expedition is rough but for love of the game and cosmetics... worth it
There isn't a way to speed thru it then huh all well lol
@round cape speed does not exist in this expedition
Wait if you redeem the milestone rewards in the expedition save what happens
Mainly the ones for cosmetics
You get the chance to carry everything over and all rewards follow
ok.
My flat bed is full of the dangerous waste material and I have to drive..11 minutes back to the Processing plant.
Wish me luck 🥲
@rotund gazelle it fills your inventory, and if you can't sell, then you have to either destroy stuff or not pick it up
Nope. Speed is not done unless you somehow get the engine upgrades out of order.
Most you have to do is back-and-forth between expedition and main save moving stuff at the very end
Or early upgrades by doing objectives aerly.
Sadge but ty
ok, so just discovered that special waste can spawn in the random small deposits
Its been really rare for me but yeah they can
yup
I grab every single one on the way.
well, my scanner won't point me to a new waste dump, so those are my only choice
At least until I hit quota out of 16/16 for each one.
Best to just stop by for a barrel you might need before its done.
Is it annoying and a long way back? Yes. Does it get it done early to be flexible? Yes.
The processing of special waste isn't working for me I have 5/5 but it just doesn't count and doesn't give me the objective complete
are yo umanually unloading?
I was auto
you have to manually
that won't work. must do it manually
😭 😭 wasted so much time
that plus other hints are in a post pinned in this channel, check it out and spread the word!
I'm sorry
If you have the waste milestone selected when you radar scan, it might help. It might do nothing but I do it
anyway, I have a flat bed FULL of special waste..and I am still "10 minutes" away from disposal site.
I have to move slower than frozen p*** to not drop anything and BOY is it painful 😂
I expect they are gnna get an earful about the slowness. dunno if that's going to lead to any adjustments in a hotfix though
We are going at snail's pace for the love of the game
true.
The "slowness" gets a few engine mods, I'd be fine with the speed if the load didn't shake out every few meters
Tho you can use the hollowed out grey spots as a make shift road to go full speed, since they are usually pretty flat, safe for a few holes
Yes, also the mountain tops as they form a sort of path at the top
luckily the wheels of the colossus are very... sticky
grip upgrade bby
ok, getting a little concerned. Finding explosive and radioactive waste in the randoms, but no toxic, and i need 4 of those still
..can't you just..scan for a waste dump and get some there?
it keeps directing me to the last one I did, and it is clear. I also relaunched my game, so my old marks are gone. Unless I just happen to get closer to one than this one, it won't give me anything
How are ppl getting sentinel ships in the expedition?
where do i get the flatbed outside of the expedition
Don't forget to look underground in those bigger holes for minerals, stalactites and stalagmites abound
ok, just found 1 toxic canister, so they do spawn
do we actually get to repair our spaceship or is it just a placeholder?
Take your exocraft bay with you in case your exocraft gets stuck (deconstruct it when you summon collosus)
Depending on your luck, it can be faster to hit dueterium jetpack boosts to get to checkpoints on foot rather than drive (especially before engine upgrades). Then summon your colossus at the trash heap.
Don't drive into anything but trees and rocks. Anything that gets under your wheels will fling your cargo.
The spider legs for the colossus can't drive over small obstacles like dihydrogen crystals but at the same time you don't want to drive over them for fear to losing your cargo
Don't bother with searching out random waypoint outposts. You can do it passively with expedition progression. Each processing plant and expedition checkpoint has their own waypoint outpost (the lamposts you activate to save game).
When it asks you to gravity gun x thing y amount of times, just grab one scrap/sentinel and spam shoot+grab rapidly. Basically just shoot it and grab it immediately within the range of your gun. Don't blast it far away and run back up to it.
Don't bother with regular scrap beyond the necessary expedition goal. Filling up with regular scrap will crowd out your flatbed and make it that much harder to carry special cargo.
When taking back special cargo to processing plant, hit your scanner to find addition special cargo along the way. The trash heaps likely won't have enough to hit the 3 special cargo milestones.
IMPORTANT Take off the colossus blade immediately after the milestone. The blade/scoop on the front causes you to collect resources as you drive over stuff. Sentinels agro on to you when you take things. They do not care if you run rocks over without collecting resources. You do not need sentinel heat while carrying cargo.
Idk I'm seeing ppl with sentinel ships but I can't trade mine
Kinda sucks they limit us to a planet for this one
they've finished the expidition
I was able to summon mine once I finished phase five. I used it to get the waypoint objective done by finding buildings on other planets
MECHA LEGS LET'S GOO
okay good to know that you can get your ship at the end
where the heck can i find cobalt
underground pillars
Surface deposits (I think) and underground
there's a cave right near the spawn that has cobalt pillars underground (at least there was for me)
how do i find spawn again? ran from the sentninels and i can't find my way back
correction: There is a cave freaking everywhere with how many times I've fell into one
i lucked out and found a deposit but never found cave wtf
just walk around, the planet is full of cave holes. i've drove into 6 already
no i mean how to i get back to spawn
This expedition is a bit tiring somehow. Just so move so slow.

real
I'm having a lot of trouble finding enough waypoints, any tips?
Is roadsigns bugged for anyone else? I’ve hit 5 different nav beacons but am stuck at 2 out of 6
I'm stuck at 2/6 too
better than me, I got 1
I found like 8 but it only counted a few of them. It's very buggy tbh.
would be less annoying if we had a ship
instead of travelling like 10 minutes at a time
Yeah it’s rough especially when it won’t count half of the time
Yeah, technically I found 2 but one only let me save
using the truck is the whole point of this
what does interacting with those beacons have to do with trucks?
Pain. Pain and suffering. 🙃
oh the beacons? No clue.
I am talking about not having a ship.
We want the ship to get to the beacons since structures seem very spread out
I eventually completed it. Had to find a bunch. Also make sure multiplayer is off and you use a save beacon before initializing the waypoint.
also appreciate tha "scan 2 animals in your truck" at page 3 or something
If you are fast enough
I would've softlocked myself if I didn't read about a different players softlocking themselves in here
Otherwise it saves automatically and then your screwed
well technically it's a hardlock
May not work for PC since it saves fast. But it worked for me on console
this is expedition not out for xbox yet?
pov we're the playtesters or something like that
aahhh
Playstation here, it's out
thank Atlas I still had 3 left
I’ll try that
I finished expedition and saw someone with Corvette but I still can't switch mine do I have to scrape it ?
my truck is a machine that turns special waste into special waste tumbling down a mountain
OK, so you're telling me that we've mastered faster-than-light space travel, we can harness wormholes to teleport, we can make antimatter with by banging some wood and rocks together, but we haven't managed to invent tie-down straps? We don't know how to make bungee cords? How about an enclosed bed? Sheesh.
@misty rivet they probably ported their main game ships in after finishing
My truck is a machine that turns freetime into ARRIVE IN: 10:00
finally finished it, holy crap
my strat now is I only use the truck when I actually have to carry stuff
tip, dont go over 35 units a hour with cargo
and jetpack boost otherwise
Isn't the truck still faster?
not faster than reload boosting
shoot boltcaster so you can reload, spam reload and melee
nyoom
probably my favorite glitch in the game tbh
has been for years
hiya, I don't have a marker for my ship in this expedition. do we even have access to ships in this one?
oh this is great
you dont use a ship in this one
no
all on one planet
@arctic holly let's stick to NMS media only here, per pinned rules: #nms-expedition message
-# memes only go in
#memes🤡 (where you can post with Familiar role - xp level 5 - run !FamiliarRole in #bot-spam for deets).
ok, ty!
Anyone else running into waypoints not registering for “road signs”?
Yup
you need to use those save beacon things
This expedition is "On this episode of Crap Road Truckers.."
It's nearby the waste disposal facility. Mine was up the hill from it
Just keep one on you at all times
But you can't use it until exp is over
Yeah restart the game it'll work
these things
As an added precaution you can switch to the objective
Oh, the issue im having is with those specifically
they don't always register
Yep just restart they start registering
might be a multiplayer issue
I was also searching for abandoned buildings and depots and stuff to speed up finding them
cause someone else used it and it bugs out
Restart now or before every save
It registers once you get the animation
Just once
Yeah. Multiplayer off is pretty much mandatory for new expeditions
And then they all worked for me
id like to have mp on for these cause its fun seeing everyone running around but it causes so many problems
Since everyone is on one planet you can't see the actual building markers
It's just white diamonds

The worst thing about driving here is constant special garbage falling off and you having to chase it down a hill
so someone mentioned at one point that it seems that the update for this expedition reclassified existing salvageable scrap worlds. Is that true?
if I read the patch notes right this is just stuff added to those planets right
All of us space truckers bitching about our jobs here on this text-based CB radio
Breaker Breaker 1-9
need some people to build highways and truck stops
I honestly love the space trucker thing this expedition just sucks
i just encountered some visual bug and now i dont see ANYTHING
Done it. Rebooted as well. No worky. Will keep trying.
Did you switch to the objective
Oh I got this one.
Have to restart your game
Yes
Anything goes wrong, turn it off and on again
let me try
Is it a new beacon for you
welcome to IT
I also reset and it didn't count one
It is done 
The pain... Is over.
Meaning am I going to new waypoints each time I try it? If so then yes
Well shit
I think it's just broken unfortunately
ok, after an hour of looking for 2 toxic canisters in the wild, I am finally done. And I thought I hate the Breach expedition
I stopped last night when dump 3 was nine minutes from the closest salvage place
After I'd had to drive back and forth to the first one four times
Of course I was the moron the first time and scrapped everything on my truck instead of manually tossing things
I dont see anyone actually enjoying this expedition
Yeah. This one was really bad imo.
I dont even like the Colossus and im forced to use it
That really set the tone for the rest of the expedition for me. I was mad, and I knew I would stay mad for the next number of hours.
I've never done any of the other expeditions, but this was a grind.
Glad to know I wasn't the only one to do that
thank you for info!
Though I rearranged them in the end, it was the first "tip" I wrote down, lol.
Bruh I did this and was FUMING haha 🤣
E
I scrapped everything and was like WTF
at this point I am seriously willing to believe when the quest shifts to "find and process toxic waste" specifically, the game has a script to remove 90% of toxic waste barrels from the planet
Can you just keep some in your truck
I did get to enjoy not having Sentinels for a while though after I got a sentinel pillar map and shut them down
I feel even better about myself now
oh boy i need 1 rock, no clue where to find it
was anyone able to group gather sentials and push them back with the gun? I had to do it to one when it wasnt attacking me
lol for me it was radioactive
2 under ground
2 types at the grey hollowed areas
and 4 diffrent types of rock everywhere else.
Check the pins
Also. For those who haven't started yet. Try to take EVERY special waste product ( toxic, rad, explosive, ) from each waste pickup. You have to go slow but it will save you in the end part where you have to recycle a bunch of each type.
my mineral was the side mountain rock tiny ones
thanks, im sure that mountain one is it
I found a glitches quad just shooting lasers into the ground and tossed around his two little friends over and over again while they'd shake their heads in bewilderment
I literally missed the brown, spiky rock because I destroyed so many before and at no point did I think to scan them but thought I did
And honestly, this was my biggest issue with this expedition. 😂
nvm i was parked right next to the last mineral. fml
So am I just screwed, I left the expedition since I was done, not understanding I had to keep scrapping to unlock everything
I was very stupid and only picked up the toxic waste only for the requirement, i didnt know i could carry or needed to carry more
happened to me too dw :')
I didnt look ahead
theres 2 ships fighting but the pirate ship is currently stuck on a big pillar, I even tried freeing it with the terrain manipulator but it refuses to fly anywhere else but directly into the giant rock pillar
Bahaha! Me to the letter!
so uh... how do I fix the waypoint bug again?
I tried disabling multiplayer and reloading, didn't work with a normal beacon
You can go back in at the expedition terminal on the Anomaly
I left via the terminal
Manual save before you use waypoint, restart game, use it and it should work.
My instructions in the pins
And it wont let me reenter via the terminal
I got all 5 stages done. Not thinking about the other parts till I got out
aw I need to reLOG?
what do i do when my special waste blows up?
how do i get more??!?!?!?!?!?
?!?!@?!
?p;[saldkjidsap[;kltgjaplk[gd;
Restart* my bad
Weird, so you were able to end it without finishing all the required milestines and collecting the rewards? Well, just start a new save on the expedition and do it again I guess. The unlocks are account-wide.
No, I completed it
All 5 today
Anybody post yet if xbox has the expedition yet?
Just cycle between the five dumpsite waypoint objectives and place beacons down. Cycle through them all and in time they should restock.
I just checked and still no
Itll prob be a week, always is
So what's your problem exactly?
ok but like, lowkey, a truck with spider legs and a flame thrower is pretty rad you gotta admit that
now I can't find them though
Noooooooooooooo
Sure, until it gets stuck on a small patch of di-hydrogen
So if I start a new expedition from the main menu, It'll track across all my saves?
All the phase unlocks will, yes
just swap to a laser and mine it, free di-hydrogen
Ahh crap.. um, well give it a little while and the ine your scanner points you to will eventually restock.
also, summoning your colossus in anywhere not a geobay puts it half underground
But I already completed the phases, im talking about the other wheels and cabin
If you completed it you have everything you can get.
So the wide cabin cant be obtained for main save?
Go check, if it's not there and you can't claim it at the quicksilver vendor then I guess not
are we not able to go back to previous rendevou points?
customization rewards are unlocked for every save, you just need to claim them from the quicksilver vendor
Is there any point in bringing anything over from my main save since apparently I can't even get to it at all during the expedition?
so you should be able to get it
no
I didnt see any parts for the colossus for sale
Already checked
not in expedition rewards?
No. No point in it. It only lets you use your ship once the expedition is done.
Nope you get the asymmetrical cab, the spider legs, and thats it
So thats why im confused on where to get the other wheels
Kinda figured 
Unless its just not possible to get them in main save which is kinda dumb
im actually using my playstation portal doing this expedition. I actually dont mind the smaller screen, while i watch a show on the big screen.
going back to the first heap then...on the side of a fking cliff
No. See details above: #nms-expedition message
is there a trick for making the colossus go uphill any faster?
The road is a lie.
is there an additional trick?
I've charted so many waypoints on this planet but some of them aren't counting towards the expedition milestone. Things bugged
Crying. It won't help you get uphill but it helped me feel a little better about playing this expedition.
I wish to god there was a way to have an enclosure upgrade
i have about 12 toxic waste from expedition 4 and im scared
Hm yeah, I just checked all the qs vendor's menus and the exo dealer on the anomaly. Doesn't seem to be a way to get it on my main save after doing the expedition on a new alt.
the many times i had to run out of the truck chasing after barrels is not fun
Thats kinda a massive flaw
Hope they fix that
Putting the big fat red ones on the very back seem to help keep stuff from rolling off the back
that's how EVERY nms expedition is lol
Man, I love being negative, but I have really liked some expeditions, and I LOVED Corvette, to the point my personal hygene suffered as I played it like 12 friggin times.
so is the flatbed one of those things you can't get outside of the expedition?
not the hygene
The absolute chasm of quality between Corvette and this thing is galactic.
me too, but every expedition seems to have a part where I'm like "WHY?? WHY IS THIS DESIGNED THIS WAY?!?!"
To see how we pack things onto caravans and pack-beasts and improve the system for Light No Fire is what I believe, and it keeps me warm
Corvette had the soul of a oprhan sacrificed to make it. I think thats what this one is lacking
I know a orphan
Unfortunately the soul needs to be sacrificed mid development
Yeah I havent sacrificed since the 90s and I dont have time to download the update so
Toot toot space truckin'
It could also just be corvettes spoiled the hell out of us

oh my birthday
where's the dump lever
drivers side at the back
Left side furthest back
”Drivers side” really doesn’t work when there’s people from countries who drive both on the left and right in the server
fair enough
Nah man this thing is like ten times worse than the fishing expedition, lol.
opposite side of where you get out
what are the waypoint beacons and how do chart them for roadsigns
this i presume but how do i pull it ?
option isn't popping up
OHHH it's in the wheel for some reason
what are you trying to do?
yea it is not traced correctly to the panel lmao
anyway this has me confused
That’s the button yes, you might need to walk up close to it
what the hell am I supposed to do here. I've charted ten. Only two are popping up.
same boat
Yup same for me.
@placid flame @heady blade Turn off multiplayer, save, relog (or fully restart the game), make sure the milestone is selected, and try finding new waypoints again. You may need to do this multiple times.
Ok, just confirmed. All salvageable scrap worlds have been rerolled. So if you had a planet you went to mainly for salvage, it is probably not one anymore
yayyy time to do it ALL OVER AGAIN. :|
oof, all that for an absolutely terrible game mechanic
cheese?
wat
Just bugged. I scanned for drop pods because those have waypoints but even those dont count sometimes
is this a cheese?
no, its the only damn way you can do it.
No, it's just how you get the game to act right. It's fine for most people, some just have the weird bug and have to do a rain dance to make it work.
Though I do have a cheese way to do it in my pinned post if you're on PC
whats this thing called No man's Sky acting right?
ps5
no cheese for you
damn i can't gif
no gif for you
this doesn't work
Anyone having trouble using exocraft radar to scan for the drop point?
You may have to do it multiple times. There's a more in-depth solution if you're on PC in my pinned post.
It seems using automatic waste just wastes our trash and don't complete the milestones
I am on pc
Check my pinned post for instructions
Yep.
i recalibrated the exocraft visuals, why didn't it clear the quest\
Where the post
you have to sort it yourself
Haven't seen that issue. Make sure you're looking for the right kind of poi
Is it a bug or supposed to be intended mechanic?
This expedition drops just in time for my Chinese New Year vacation! Woo-hoo!
Then why the hell is the automatic waste an option in the first place?
Who knows. It's how it works, though.
for phase 1
after that you have to sort it yourself
does it have to be the one i built specifically or what
Phase 1 I actually needed to sort myself. It wasn't counting in the automatic
Check the "pinned messages"
Do checkpoints first?
so um... how do I go offline,,,,,,
I wanna try to edit the save data cuz I literally cannot find any waypoints I haven't already used
On Steam open your library and click "Go offline..." in the Steam menu
ah! you meant steam
the tipper 1 worked for me but after it specified i had to dump and sort the special waste
thought you were referring to going offline IN the game somehow lol
You can use a firewall to block nms.exe from acxcessing the internet, that works, too. But yeah the Steam way works.
Oh yeah
also the automatic waste gives you nanites
which i'm guessing will be useful outside of the expidition
I'm about to find out, but I doubt it
thats if you want to roleplay as a gek trucker
i like the spider legs augment but they cant handle dihydrogen and the audio is bugged when driving it
now they just need a trucker hat
Yeah, you'll have enough to buy a small ship module in a matter of hours.
Also round waste is fuckin bullshit, like the explosive ones. They keep jumping out of my truck with little cargo. It's easier to bring 20 pieces of normal scrap than the round ones
a Gek contruction safty helmet would be cute
^
Yeah no lol. Just got 1500 nanites and played for a good time
Oh my bad. 2 small ship modules.
Oh I thought you were talking about reactor cores yeah you're right
I have officially completed my second expedition.
It was a roller coaster but I do like my truck.
yeah, so I just ran a crammed full truckload of waste through the autoscrapper for nanites, got 200
People who complained about the exp terrain are little whiners with all respect
I heard people complaining and thought it was bad
ok i found a way to speed up roadsigns just travel in any direction and look for wayward save beacons
But not even remotely as bad as the planet I started the quest on my main save. Holy shit the mountains looked like skyscrapers
good thing about them is you're never too far away from 1
downside you can easily miss them
I really hope they expand the capabilities of the grav gun and make a better expedition based around it. That shit has a LOT of potential.
I started rapid firing the grav gun at the junk piles when I got real bored and mad, which was kinda fun.
Woooow do NOT walk over hydrogen crystals with the bug legs. They just stop
It all had potential. They just went the wrong way with this one
3/6 for roadsigns
ok so about that
what I found was that, it's just really the center of the trust that is getting hard stuck..
Try to mine a strip in the middle
also I still wish the grav gun was multitool design.
I love how it looks, but when I need to mine or change terrain or attack it goes away :(
Like I said, lots of potential. Like let me just pick up some scrap and beat the shit out of plants or the ground with it. No need for a multitool.
Yeah it treats it like super slow trudging you have to burn your way through for some reason. Its like.. step over it?
also abandoned buildings are a dime a dozen, they are very common too
if they dont buff the rewards there is genuinely no reason to do it
I wanted to beat the shit out of sentinels with other sentinels, but noooo that would be too cool.
that would be the best, throw a walker leg at sentinels etc
ok some speed upgrades and the legs look really funny
you can pelt sentilnals into the scrappers
Or tear the leg off and use it to beat the other ones down. Dammit I need to stop thinking about this because it's infinitely better than what they will end up doing, lol.
I noticed that too, needs more ground clearance with them.
Did anyone here got the incinerator already? How does it work?
That's almost worth doing. Only healers and summoners, right?
Oh I guess you could just knock back the shooters
Can it waste any trash type?
It’s a flamethrower, not much else to say
No
Oh wait, you mean the furnace?
Yes
The repair ones yes, only other ones I had it work on was the smaller ones that are normally found roaming all over.
Can they dispose of every type of trash?
you apparently unlock the furnace doing waste jobs in main game
Wdym they can't handle it?
I know, but it can dispose any kind of trash?
I got a ways to go on that yet.
tiny nodes like dyhydrogen and oxygen wont let the colossus walk over them
Weird
It gets stuck
i only need 1 toxic waste to finish the expedition
Meanwhile the wheeled/halftrack ones just crawl right over them
... so it would have been that easy to make this expedition suck 10 times less. ok. cool. kill me.
no idea, just relaying information I read
Had to do that too. Finally found a barrel sitting on another scrap pile in the wild.
Yeah but does it unlock the furnace in the exp?
doubtful
Shit I'm dumb we do. I unlocked a different cab and got it in the exp
I'm more interested in the other wheel options
Weird. All pieces I got in my main game were in the exp
It didn't have to unlock them again
I don't think it would be different
Erm, i can't find my ship in the expedition
You don't need to
you won't use it
Can't use the ship until done anyways
how do i get parafinium
Mine was in a rock pile
craft it
silver + oxygen
oo
The game tells you how to refine it
Couple other recipies as well.
Mine just made the refiner flash didn't say anything.
It's on the quest tooltip iirc
How do i uh reorientate sentinels?
Toss em
Grab and throw with the grav gun
Ah
grab them with the grav gun like trash, then shoot them out
