nms-expedition

[knotty pasture]

Seeing the number finally go to 4 put me at rest

[split raven]

Could anyone come and save me with a ship and place a teleporter? I’m stuck with no veichle 5 hours away from the waste terminal

[knotty pasture]

How did you achieve that

[split raven]

Teleported to a observatory

There was a habitalbase with a teleporter close to the waste terminal

[knotty pasture]

You can't teleport back?

[split raven]

Nope, since I can’t build any. All I can do is build a communication station

[tidal pollen]

turns out repeatedly grabbing and letting go of a sentinel without launching it away completes that phase 4 mission LOL

[royal basin]

Does anyone have glyphs for the planet? I meant to take a screen shot and totally forgot.

[tidal pollen]

just tickled the same sentinel 32 times

[knotty pasture]

If you walk a little bit away you can claim an area and build a portal

[split raven]

I don’t think I can do that

[knotty pasture]

Evil of them to not give us a base computer

You are STUCK bro

[split raven]

Indeed, but is it possible for someone to come to my communication station and place a teleporter?

[knotty pasture]

I think someone who has already completed the expedition could

Depends when you're able to unlock the ship in it

[molten hill]

is there any advantage or disadvantage of putting tracks in the front?

[royal basin]

If you go into photo mode, does it give you glyphs? If so, I may be able to hop over in a corvette, or maybe even build, now that I've finished it. I don't know how to get back to the planet

[royal basin]

I think it's just for looks - none of the running gears seem to behave any differently than the wheels.

[molten hill]

base computer is locked behind completing the expedition cause they dont want us to clutter the planet with bases. the bases you see there are people bringing their other saves to this planet that isnt doing the expedition.

[molten hill]

i see. thank you. i was hoping they'd have some sort of usefulness. heres hoping spider legs are actually useful and not just cosmetic either.

[split raven]

If I go to photomode I do not get any glyphs

[royal basin]

So far the legs don't seem any different - they just make a different sound and look cool.

[knotty pasture]

You sure?

Bottom left of the screen

I'm also in expedition and I see them

[royal basin]

Nightmare - I don't know how to get back to the planet. Would it be in my discoveries? I'll check in a bit. I deliberately went to the space station so I could just look for 'previous system' at a base terminal, but it doesn't show up 🙁

[molten hill]

got it thank you

[royal basin]

If you can post the glyphs, hopefully I can get back to the planet...

[zinc flint]

Xbox finally getting the update

[split raven]

Oh, do you mean these

[royal basin]

Yup. also, do you have your rough co-ordinates?

and on screen name

[winged grove]

anyone have an answer for this? kinda hard to do the expedition

[lime matrix]

Hi, i have an isue with the waypoint milestone

[split raven]

My screen name is OliverHero, and I’m 89ks from the terminal and just placed a communication station

[lime matrix]

Ive travelled a lot searching those, i interact with the waypoints and it doesnt count

[humble geode]

... wow. muy colossus just had a "tetsuo's guts falling out in akira" moment ._.

[molten hill]

i couldnt find any. it is indeed very annoying to bring all the loot back everytime you just have to carry extra and be very careful, stop everytime a few drops, repeatedly press esc> and click on the quest for the quest description to show up on screen so you know how many are you carrying/how many you dropped etc.

[humble geode]

just driving along, everything peachy, then suddenly my screen stutters and half my cargo is on the ground under me, tumbling behind x.x

[molten hill]

i do wish these "heavy scrap" that we need a special tool to pick up and move didnt behave like feathers

[humble geode]

i cannot possibly stress enough how very much nothing did not go OVER the edges of the bed.

[split raven]

These planets could give you a hint maybe

[humble geode]

items fell through.

[molten hill]

amen. i never knew a pve game could tilt me so much but i stand corrected. bringing those special scrap back to scrapyard really increased my patience.

[safe galleon]

Bytebeat

[royal basin]

Which terminal do you mean, the trash depot?

[knotty pasture]

My colossus fazed into the ground and my contents ricocheted everywhere

[safe galleon]

Bro just open the scanner and give him the coordinates 😂😂 he done told him to follow the planets

[split raven]

Yes the waste processing plant

[molten hill]

my sincere condolences. we can make spaceships but we cant slap a magnet on a scrap and fix it to the flatbed. technology i guess.

[split raven]

Ah thank you, these are the coordinates

[royal basin]

Cool, if it works, you should see me soon....

[winged grove]

oh ok thanks

[humble geode]

oh wow i finally found my useless irreparable ship :D

well okay not completely useless.

it's a good item stash

[stone mural]

so its basicly driving simulator?

[safe galleon]

Yeah this expedition kinda sucks

[stone mural]

i have to drive 10 minutes from there to there only to drive back?

like accual 10 minutes

[knotty pasture]

Yes

[stone mural]

bruh

lmao goated name

[safe galleon]

10 minutes is an estimate with the boosting plus eventual upgrades you can get it gets lesser and lesser

[molten hill]

10 mins to get there, 20 mins to get back cause apparently these heavy scrap objects can be flung off a magbed like feathers off a chicken

[safe galleon]

It’s so annoying too like why tf does a 2 ton metal tank do cartwheels after it bumps into some wheat

[stone mural]

the idea is cool. but let me attach the collos to my ship or smt, or the load that i can fly there for 30 seconds and not pressing w and shift for 10 minutes

[molten hill]

mmhmm. i internally screamed quite a few times

[stone mural]

also,. we have litteraly spaceships and weapons/tools out of this world but the idea of a fucking lid isnt possible??

[safe galleon]

If it was a paradise or planet or something other than the same 2 rocks it would be more enjoyable

[stone mural]

true

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

[molten hill]

or just have some form of magnetic relation to the bed so they werent flung around i'd be happier

[stone mural]

minecraft superflat world

then ok

[remote thunder]

be sure to submit all that feedback that you're talking about to the devs

talking about it here isn't going to make sure they listen

[safe galleon]

DELETE this expedition!!!!!

[stone mural]

im going to fucking kil myself

[remote thunder]

just be thankful they didn't put us on a planet with water and islands

because let me tell you

underwater driving a colossus

falling into an underwater cave

is not the best experience

[safe galleon]

Bk did you finis the expediton yet

[remote thunder]

almost

[stone mural]

running to point a is more fun lmao

[safe galleon]

Where you at

[remote thunder]

phase 3, 1h25 played

[fringe star]

Throw tires on top of your special trash to weight it down. Truck holds more than you think

[safe galleon]

I played like 4 hours yesterday and managed to finish it

[knotty pasture]

Expedition so ass I've finished wave 5 before wave 3

[safe galleon]

It was the worst 4 hours of no mans sky i ever played

Like ever ever

[eternal cedar]

Seems that xbox has a major crash to dashboard issue, expedition is completely unplayable till its fixed.

[remote thunder]

3rd player i've seen reporting crashes on xbox

[eternal cedar]

I suspect its connected to deploying the colossus

[split raven]

@royal basin ,let me know if want me to send the same coordinates again

[eternal cedar]

Game freezes, then a weird graphical glitch that looks purple-ish pinkish appears and throws you to the dashboard, 100% convinced its related to the colossus in some way.

[daring briar]

How do I keep things from falling off the flatbed, I cant find the industrial waste when I use the flatbed to scan even thuough it says it detected it, can I get out of the colossus and still see the icon for the waste is it a different color other than the green? and lastly has anyone found their starship yet ( dont care if the game is about just the planet )

[knotty pasture]

You don't

Let it fly

[eternal cedar]

I'd not even bother driving near caves, I'd get out and flatten everything even if it took forever to do

[stone mural]

i was on my phone and drove into it XD

[eternal cedar]

This game is starting to have bugs that are getting more severe over time, I'm getting very concerned overall.

[stone mural]

and im drinking beer

thats the best driving experience

[safe galleon]

Theres literally no way to get off planet unless you find a base with a teleporter or finish the expedition

[knotty pasture]

Texting while driving simulator

[remote thunder]

see images for differences between specialist and regular waste. we can find our ship, it was spawned near where we spawned, but no point, wont be able to use it

[stone mural]

i dont need a sim for that

[daring briar]

FLY?

[molten hill]

thank you for the direction. done!

[knotty pasture]

Jump off the tip of a mountain and watch your contents reach the stars

[safe galleon]

I managed to find a base with a teleporter and buy 3 s class exocraft boost upgrades from the system space station

If anyone else finds that one base with a teleporter make sure to use it

[blazing fossil]

Aaaand, that’s gonna get deleted when a mod shows up

[stone mural]

not if i delete it first

[knotty pasture]

If I teleport to a station from a portal someone else built, could I buy a ship?

[stone mural]

lmao i just realized, im playing a space game about starships and flying while not beeing able to fly a starship

[safe galleon]

I tried but i think starships are disabled or something before you finish the expedition

I waited in the space station and reloaded autosaves but nothing showed up

[knotty pasture]

So no matter what, I'll have to drive for hours

[blazing fossil]

Even finding crashed ships doesn’t work

[eternal cedar]

I found my own ship and it doesn't let you repair it, this expedition is entirely designed as a long haul

[molten hill]

yeah for now the only positive about going to a space station through someone's teleporter is to sell any goodies and free up your inventory

[eternal cedar]

It's like aquarius except no ship instead

Tbf aquarius was just annoying rng at times.

[safe galleon]

Upgrades too

Theres an s class exocraft boost

[stone mural]

what is industrial waste? how or where do i find it

[knotty pasture]

Use your visor

Green icon

[stone mural]

lol

thanks im stupid

[knotty pasture]

Recycle for bad rewards

[tidal pollen]

they're giving us the Light No Fire experience

[knotty pasture]

They've sent us back to the stone age

[stone mural]

ah, special industrial waste

[molten hill]

oh yeah that. totally forgot. thanks!

[stone mural]

how that

what is special industrial waste?

[wraith junco]

The colored containers

[woven shadow]

It’s not counting my waypoints

Well, it counted 2 of them. But I’ve hit 8 save points/mapping beacons and it’s not counting them all

[prisma oracle]

Its all just about testing lnf mechanics

[royal basin]

So, I got to the planet without any problem, but once I got to those coords there was nothing there, so I'm guessing we'd need to be in the same instance, which I'm not sure how that would work if only one person was currently on the exp..

[white bronze]

lowkey a bunch of people need to organize and build just a massive string of highways on expedition planet

[molten hill]

wish me luck bois hope to bring atleast 35% of it back to scrapyard

[tidal pollen]

slow and steady wins the race

[remote thunder]

<#nms-questions message>

[woven shadow]

Oh okay. MP weirdness strikes again

[tidal pollen]

HUH

[woven shadow]

I have 19 pieces of cargo in my truck LOL. Pray for me please

[remote thunder]

just posted a link about that

[tidal pollen]

YEAH

yeah I'm gonna have to try method 2

already had mp off

[peak harness]

is it only possible to return to main save in this expedition by completing it?

since you can’t fly to the Anomaly?

[visual rapids]

you can return from your pause menu

[split raven]

So you cannot see my two communication stations?

[peak harness]

oh thank you! i missed that

[royal basin]

I saw several comms stations, but none with your name. 🙁

[graceful ledge]

Hey I accidentally destroyed my personal refinery and now I can't do anything

[royal basin]

I even went out looking for just players who seemed obviously out of the way but still didn't see your name. 🙁
Can you start the expedition in a different save? Might be your only solution, unless you can somehow flag down a passing corvette, which doesn't seem likely 🙁

[royal basin]

Yeah, went straight to those coords and nothing was there 🙁

[tidal pollen]

🫡

[safe galleon]

Try uploading it

Is your multiplayer on?

[tidal pollen]

nope

[safe galleon]

Did you upload it via discoveries?

[split raven]

Thanks for the help anyway!

[graceful ledge]

Can I get help please

I accidentally destroyed my personal refinery and now I can't do anything

[royal basin]

No problem, sorry I couldn't do much 🙁

[knotty pasture]

For some missions the rewards are repair kits

[safe galleon]

Yikes

[split raven]

You’ve tried, and I appreciate that🙂

[royal basin]

Can you just reinstall the tech? Might need to gather some resources to build it..

[safe galleon]

How far are you into the expedition?

[graceful ledge]

Just started

[tidal pollen]

you don't come with plans for it

[safe galleon]

I dont think they give you the blueprints

[safe galleon]

Just start over

[fringe star]

Critters act like your truck is invisible or they are all suicidal.

[lofty phoenix]

is it normal that all other player around me are laggy but i can play still with no porblmes

[graceful ledge]

How it's my first expedition

[knotty pasture]

I've found my last building to complete the waypoint quest

Finally

[safe galleon]

Just quit to main menu and make a new expedition save

Did I cook yes or no

[graceful ledge]

Thx

[lofty phoenix]

is it normal taht expedtions ar so laggy?

[safe galleon]

If your multiplayer is on yes especially since the whole expedition is on one planet

This isnt usually the case with other expeditions just this one

[lofty phoenix]

ah oaky good to knwo but sad

[knotty pasture]

Disabling multiplayer for the expedition was the best part

[graceful ledge]

Is there a way I can get my rewards from the new expedition to my last save

[vast pollen]

im not going there

[molten hill]

do it!

[tepid grove]

How's everyone's waste clearing going?

[naive crypt]

Does the mech legs make it easier to transport stuff? Because they seem to get stuck on H2 crystals. So if they don't offer any benefits I would just swap to tyres

[tepid grove]

Like the rewards for finishing each milestone?
At the Anomaly, talk to the quicksilver vendor and hit "Claim Expedition Rewards" or something like that

[molten hill]

internally screaming

[graceful ledge]

Ok

[naive crypt]

Game is telling me to transfer waste 7Ku away, I just closed the game.

[gentle coral]

okay I am a bit lost, cant seem to find parafinnium as its only on other planet and I cant find any ship or a way to get out in order to build colossus

[tepid grove]

wait how fast is the colossus again

[gentle coral]

am I missing something? my ship never spawned or is nowhere to be seen

[tepid grove]

Refine Pyrite

[naive crypt]

Refine pyrite with ferrite dust

[gentle coral]

omg thank youn so much

[tepid grove]

as they said pyrite and ferrite

[tidal pollen]

if it weren't for this expedition I would never know about the pyrite refining ngl 😂

[naive crypt]

Refining pyrite only would give you ferrite dust, refining pyrite AND ferrite will give you paracetamol

[wanton frigate]

If you pin the task, it tells you to do this once you've got the other ingredients.
Don't underestimate how helpful your hud can be!

[safe galleon]

Paracetamol… i see 🤔

[molten hill]

i could use some paracetamol rn ngl

[knotty pasture]

Destroyed one of my visor reward upgrades for a wiring loom so I could make my vehicle faster

[naive crypt]

I would need some because goddman is this a headache

[tidal pollen]

building a healthy colossus

[knotty pasture]

Hella worth it

[wanton frigate]

You don't want it to go faster!!!

That way lies madness. And cargo loss

[tidal pollen]

get well soon!

[knotty pasture]

I'll put it in my inventory once I reach the pile

[naive crypt]

i just store all upgrades when transporting stuff

[vast pollen]

after hundreds of kms, im not stuck at 1/6!!!

[safe galleon]

DONT buy s class upgrades for the boost unless you want your scrap to fly forward every time you do

[tepid grove]

Okay so I just calculated how long that would take
If 1u is a meter and 1ku is a kilometer
The colossus going 20u/hr
would take 350 HOURS to get there

[naive crypt]

40-60, with all upgrades 80

[knotty pasture]

It's only A

[tepid grove]

OH

Hold on recalculating

[wanton frigate]

This is like that bus simulator game where you drive the straight road to Vegas in a bus that slightly veers to the left now and again...

[tepid grove]

With upgrades 116 hours

[woven shadow]

I picked up more junk. I got 29 pieces of junk to the processing plant

[tepid grove]

Oh hey I levelled up

[halcyon rose]

How much junk can we fit in that Colossus? I've done 10 to 11 pieces.

[safe galleon]

The colossus is actually pretty responsive its just how light it is is annoying

[knotty pasture]

Never regretting this grip upgrade

[tepid grove]

fr why is a dump truck as light as like
a sedan

[naive crypt]

||That's what she said||

[safe galleon]

Just finish the expedition son

[smoky trail]

huh came across a crashed ship

[tepid grove]

lmao

[smoky trail]

first time thats happened

[knotty pasture]

Just making it end faster

[naive crypt]

The issue is the cargo being light and the walls doing fuckall to keep them in

[tepid grove]

Mhm
Transporting paper with like no walls

[safe galleon]

This is pretty common on planets with salvageable scrap

[smoky trail]

ah so its a new thing?

[safe galleon]

No

[tepid grove]

I mean it is a flatbed
which generally has no walls except for the side facing the truck

[safe galleon]

Salvageable scrap planets been here a while

[smoky trail]

oh the other scrap

alr

[naive crypt]

Idk if its my potato laptop but more than 2 cargo and every slight bump just clips them outside

[tidal pollen]

of course, why didn't I think of this before, just strapped a hairband on my joystick

[safe galleon]

Yeup

[tepid grove]

So it is TECHNICALLY better than a flatbedp

[tidal pollen]

I can eat lunch while the truck self drives forward

[halcyon rose]

I agree. I've never considered playing no man's sky with mods until this update.

[signal igloo]

i never once had to drive more than 17 minutes

[tepid grove]

Is there a mod that makes it so the cargo isn't lighter than aerogel

which is almost as light as air

[wanton frigate]

Real truckers drive for days! Just eat a yorkie, you'll be fine.

[naive crypt]

By the time you get there you have no cargo left and you didn't actually get there you are stuck inside a cave

[halcyon rose]

I wouldn't be surprised if somebody was working on it

[vast pollen]

anyone knows how the cartography milestone works? im already with multiplayer disabled

[safe galleon]

They should add jack links to the game

[tepid grove]

At least you can summon it freely if it does happen

[wanton frigate]

and gek hitchhikers that you can strangle and hide in the bushes once you're out of sight of the recycling plant

[naive crypt]

Having like a magnetic system or something to snap the cargo to the bed is what I expected

[tepid grove]

Okay question
Does anybody else like
Always deconstruct the Colossus bay when leaving the depot

[safe galleon]

Yeah… does anyone not?

[tepid grove]

I do it in case it sends me to a different depot

[naive crypt]

Yep

[safe galleon]

I honestly just jetpack boosted to the waste heaps

[wanton frigate]

used the same metal plates to build the bulldozer attachment. Recycling!

[naive crypt]

It will never

[tepid grove]

Okay so its not me being weird

[naive crypt]

Even if you scan for facilities it will always mark the same one

[tepid grove]

Also why would someone use the jump on the colossus
it's basically a "byebye cargo" button

[knotty pasture]

Combine the time to get there and the time to get back and how many times you have to do it

[safe galleon]

It jumps like an inch off the floor anyway

I dont know why its a thing

[remote thunder]

remember that after an exocraft is spawned on a planet, we dont need the geobay built to resummon it on that planet

[naive crypt]

Heck I found another facility ON MY WAY from a heap.

[sharp bolt]

Ya I really think they need to make straps that strap the stuff down, I would never have a bed of stuff like that in RL and not have them strapped down

[naive crypt]

You do need the bae for modifications

[remote thunder]

yes, but not to resummon

[tepid grove]

You DO need it if you wanna change the visuals
Like say you unlock a new cabin or bedp

[safe galleon]

I think I found that one too but the game wants you to use it it just always leads you back to that same one

[tepid grove]

we both said that at the same time

[naive crypt]

I have never seen a truck without fasteners

[tepid grove]

Now you have with the Cargo Dropper 9000

Aka the colossus

[sand bluff]

is it supposed to be clear where the trash heaps are? i cant find any waypoint that say something like that when i scan

[sharp bolt]

also I think that Roadsigns in Phase 3 needs some work, it didn't always count even when I went to a completly new area

[sand bluff]

should i just head in a direction?

[tepid grove]

You gotta scan for heaps specifically

[naive crypt]

What does it say when you scan for a heap?

[sand bluff]

how do i do that?

[naive crypt]

Exocraft radar

In exocraft, quick menu> scan> Waste Heaps

[wanton frigate]

don't use the press-the-stick scan. Do the down-arrow - radar - scan for heaps scan

[halcyon rose]

Along the way, keep an eye out for the little piles, sometimes they do have special containers

[tepid grove]

yup

[lunar nest]

how do i find the waypoints? do i just drive around or what?

[wanton frigate]

Along the way back . NEver pick up cargo on the way there!

[remote thunder]

hop in exocraft, press X or dpad down - radar:

[sand bluff]

OH THANKS GUYS

[naive crypt]

I am just gonna drive to my facility and whatever cargo I have left I will deposit then just hunt nearby scraplets for the rest

[safe galleon]

bk are you tooting the horn twice to sell your scrap 🫣

[remote thunder]

see <#nms-expedition message>

[remote thunder]

oh yeah, love it

[naive crypt]

I just cannot be bothered carrying 5 barrels for 15 minutes over rugged terrain

[safe galleon]

I dont know why they dont tell you i wouldnt have find out had it not been for that one line in the patch notes

[wanton frigate]

Don't worry, after 10 minutes it'll be more like 3 barrels

[lost sphinx]

Does waste processed during the expedition count towards the standard player titles for processing waste?

[remote thunder]

pays off to read patch notes 😉

[remote thunder]

no, that progress is per save, the unlock is account wide

[ebon gate]

Anyone here got the list of minerals on the expedition? I'm missing 1 more 😭

[wanton frigate]

Go up a hill. It's one of the tiny stones. Bet ya

[naive crypt]

Heap 4: I started with 11 scrap, when I reached my destination I had 1 left. That too was tumbling down a mountain

[safe galleon]

If I continue as normal save after the expedition does it start from 0 or include what I did during it

[remote thunder]

i'm approaching this like if i was driving a rockcrawler

slow and steady

[lost sphinx]

I'm running the expedition through my main save via the Anomaly Terminus. I was just wanting to know if any waste I processed in the expedition would work towards getting those titles or not.

[remote thunder]

havent really lost cargo

[unkempt quail]

anyone elses frames just die when you drive the truck?

[remote thunder]

that said, avoid driving when loaded during night time

[copper horizon]

playing no mans sky right now

[woven shadow]

I am getting better at yeeting pieces of junk into the appropriate disposal units from a distance

[modest plover]

Sorry if its been asked already, but how are people finding the minerals? I've got two more to find and the caves arent showing me anything new

[remote thunder]

keep options/network/multiplayer disabled

[naive crypt]

The small cylinders clip through the bed, the giant boxes clip other things out of the bed. Apart from that it was smooth sailing

[remote thunder]

i'm also taking real care when loading

[safe galleon]

How exactly

Theyre gonna end up scattered the momnent you move

[naive crypt]

Not if you completely fill the bed

[wanton frigate]

Only use direct launches into the flatbed, no ricochets or backboard shots?

[naive crypt]

No space for the waste to move l

[safe galleon]

Backboard shots, fundamentals always work

[naive crypt]

You launch? I just drop them

[ebon gate]

I hope you're right cause i already scanned a small rock

[remote thunder]

i'm not stacking stuff on stuff of each other, i'm pulling the bigger boxes up against the front of the flatbed/back of the cabin, you'll notice that other objects can also get pushed as you're arranging room for another piece

[wanton frigate]

there's a couple of them. one is rounder than the other.

[safe galleon]

🤔

[ebon gate]

Oki

[tidal pollen]

okay another one that is not completing, I even got the Steam achievement for it

[naive crypt]

Its not the rock called BigRock. You will find some in those gray terrains

[warm mauve]

Is the update out on Xbox yet?

[tidal pollen]

Nevermind, the game just wanted me to write a formal complaint

All is well!

[viscid sparrow]

fix my bug

[naive crypt]

I tried that but idk if its my PC but the big boxes just push everything out of the back and sides of the bed

[viscid sparrow]

with your magic complaints

[safe galleon]

Oh yeah I forgot to say it but did anyone else’s ‘scan while riding an exocraft’ finish when you werent in the colossus?

[latent owl]

yea i had that happen

[wanton frigate]

Might be a PC patch thing to address the issue of having nothing left to scan with the Cyclops

[latent owl]

havent even boarded the colossus yet when i got it LMAO

[remote thunder]

try to make sure that when you place them on the flatbed, they're like not glitching through/snapping to the sides or the cabin itself

[remote thunder]

yes, it has rolled out, we've confirmed it

[warm mauve]

Peak

[safe galleon]

Exactly haha I think the exact quest is ‘scan an animal while in an exocraft”, i finished scanning all 6/6 of the fauna before even riding the exocraft so i think it just auto triggered or something idk

[safe galleon]

John fallout

[warm mauve]

What’s up

[wraith venture]

Just beware of several reports about game crashes. If you experience that, please report it to Hg via their Zendesk to raise visibility

[haughty rover]

Definitely crashing alot more with update

[warm mauve]

As long as it don’t have anything to do with data I’ll be fine

[lofty phoenix]

how can i finde my broken ship?

[remote thunder]

forget it - you'll only be able to make use of it after completing all checkpoint milestones afaik

[wraith junco]

Cant fix it anyways

[signal igloo]

i arrived atRV5 and have a loaded truck ready to roll

11 minutes tot herecycler

[kindred mesa]

"Transport 5 special industrial waste" Phase 1 - does this need to be from the Rendevouz 1 checkpoint or can it be from any other location as well?
I accidentally used the auto processing and it didn't count, can't really get any more scrap from the first waste dump lol

[signal igloo]

Ugh this trading post is an hour away. But it might be worth it if I can get the parts I need for more Exocraft mods.

[remote thunder]

should be able to do it at a different waste processing plant e.g. next checkpoint's

[tidal pollen]

lmao people were not joking, just went up and down 2 mountains with no problem with my cargo but the tiniest bump near the end threw all my cargo out

[knotty pasture]

2 NPC ships flew so low that they knocked items off of my colossus

This game is Hella ragebaiting me

[narrow matrix]

is it a hard expedition

[halcyon rose]

For me it's a stressful one because everything's bouncing everywhere.

[tidal pollen]

also filling our inventory with a whole collection of bones with no place to sell or assemble them is... something

[solemn bane]

You get that rocket that lets you sell stuff

Trade Rocket

[halcyon rose]

I come to no man's sky to de-stress not to be stressed.

[tidal pollen]

oh thank goodness

[tidal pollen]

fishing expedition was my favorite for that

[merry sun]

Is the new expedition out on xbox yet? I dont see it. Just lots of ppl on here talking about an ongoing one.

[wraith venture]

It is. Be forewarned of crashes being reported too.

[somber owl]

omg i just started the expeditioon like 10 mins ago, and i got the advanced mining lazer for exo craft, but managed to lose it. I tought it was for my mining gun, tried to install it, realiced my mistake, and it dissapeared

nvm i still got it

[merry sun]

Thanks everyone. Just found update now

[knotty pasture]

Time for my next batch

[signal igloo]

3/4 of mine have been different only the first two stages were the same. then i went chasing that drone tower, and everything went local for me

[knotty pasture]

2 more until I've finished it

[signal igloo]

i used it to settle my load

the waypoint thing was never an issue for me as well. I spun the radio waypoints and moved on before I knew it was complete

i just do that from habit

i like the legs tho, still spilled a load, falling in a hole from overconfidence

[lucid plover]

lots of stress as you hit a bump and your cargo flies everywhere 🙂

[signal igloo]

i finally settled on one full truckbed on the bottom. and it slide around less and found it was less likely to pop out if it didn't slide full truck length

[lucid plover]

BTW if you manage to glitch a corvette in the salvage drops through the floor, FYI

[signal igloo]

i stacked a bunch of metal on tops of the important cargo once to see if it would hold it down

[void badge]

I'm probably missing something obvious but how do you unlock the mobile furnace? I never got it during the expedition. Switching over to my main save and I did the actions to get the flatbed but I don't see how to get the furnace.

[knotty pasture]

Given my controller mechanical stick drift so it drives itself to the next rendezvous

[signal igloo]

this expedition is going well, reminds me of balancing a cueball on an eightball

[somber jolt]

roadsign is buged ? is used chart poitn and they didn't count

[knotty pasture]

I've done a max efficiency haul layout

If I did it well then they all wedge together and they rarely fall off

[solemn bane]

4. If you can't complete the "Roadsigns" milestone, try disabling multiplayer, save and relog, make sure the milestone is selected and find new waypoints. This may take a few tries, and you may need to drive farther out to find new waypoints.

[signal igloo]

are you spinning the lil antennea by the cargo drop at POis?

[knotty pasture]

If not they will likely fly off in one movement

[kindred mesa]

Worked fine btw - got stuff from Rendevouz 2 Waste Dump and completed Road Trip 1+2 :)

[signal igloo]

if i was to ask for one QOL treatment it would be cargo positioning

[somber jolt]

alreayd play multiplayer off

that wasn't like any crashed I've seen that looked really wrecked

[fierce kiln]

dayum whole expedition is done and i cant find one mineral stuck at 7/8 for petrology

[signal igloo]

you did the tree?

[fierce kiln]

tree counts as mineral??

[signal igloo]

snakeskin rocktree

[wraith venture]

You sound like us, reminding folks to read Gunter embeds for FAQs, rules, etc

[fierce kiln]

oh yeah i did it comes in flora

[signal igloo]

it was ferrite fist

[fierce kiln]

wait

[balmy pine]

Quick question, my partner pre-scanned almost all of the creatures on the expedition planet... way before he found out about the quest for "scanning 2 creatures". does that mean he wouldn't be able to complete that quest?... since we can't leave the spawn planet

[signal igloo]

then you need the tiny rocks

[solemn bane]

I've come to accept people won't read pins before asking, but at least read the entirety of what I copy/pasted, lol.

[signal igloo]

just use the cyclops for the last ones it should work

[fierce kiln]

omg my game is bugged i cant scan it

[signal igloo]

find another

some don't scan

not kidding and they stop your truck and can't be mined as well

lame tree rock thing

the hit box on that one is all over the place

like the ten foot tall hit box on dy-hy

if you miine it, you pass right over the spot

[wraith venture]

It is very nice of you to do that Many of us do try our best here, but yeah, I really wish people read more thoroughly.
-# || I asked Gleam if I have to start making YouTube videos for our pinned guides, reading off a board, pointing with a stick, you get the idea ||

[fierce kiln]

yeah i got 4-5 around me as named Rock tree and shon found by ignition

[quaint turtle]

anyone know how to apply flatbed chassis to colossus? I kinda bugged and not having the plan

[tidal pollen]

RockTree and BigRock ❤️

[balmy pine]

ummm... like, the last ONE, is thst fine? he's at 5/6, scanned with multitool.
The guy scanned everything he saw during the first hour of expedition LoL

[wraith venture]

Lol i like it

[signal igloo]

Yes, on the summonsing pad the screen to the right

[fierce kiln]

right next to summoning screen there is modification screen go there then in chasis then select number 2

[quaint turtle]

ahh alright

[signal igloo]

you have to follow the milestones it will show up when it says you get the truck

[quaint turtle]

thanks buddy

[fierce kiln]

dayum i cant scan rock tree

[quaint turtle]

already built the exo but dont know how to install the chassis

[fierce kiln]

going to paradise planet to scan another mineral so i can get my mission done

[native bloom]

What the fuck is this nonsense?! Hey, that big glowing square that we just taught you how to use? Yeah, if you do that in the next step it doesn't count and you have to redo the last 45 minutes. Cool, right?

[solemn bane]

yep

[native bloom]

The driving and cargo moving around that people seem to be complaining about were fine to me, but the auto unload not counting with no warning is fucking bullshit

[short zenith]

the flatbed chassis is one of the numbered options in the config menu, if you got the blueprint that numbered option should be unlocked. just select it and you should be good

[signal igloo]

they only had me autounload that one time

[viscid sparrow]

i mean it tells you to manually dump it out when u get to the sorting place

[signal igloo]

like showing me the mechanic - never after that

the second time they showed me the lever on the flatbed

[viscid sparrow]

can someone test sum for me i cant get on rn

[solemn bane]

Yeah I think it's mostly about setting my expectations that nothing I can do ahead of time will ever be enough. Also setting boundaries for myself for the maximum I will do before just telling people to use google or chatgpt to figure the rest out, heh.

[signal igloo]

only the first time auto unload was the goal

[lofty phoenix]

hwo can i get Wiring Loom the next traiding outpost is 1 houer distance

[warped horizon]

Anyone elses xbox keep crashing when trying to start expedition?

[viscid sparrow]

the hell do you need a wiring loom for

[native bloom]

I didn't see anything like that. I drove up, went to the square they just taught me how to use, hit the horn twice, then got angry

[solemn bane]

Dismantle some tech they gave you. It will tell you what you'll get when you mouse over.

[signal igloo]

yeah, ever time the tech gets upgraded you get three wirelooms

[viscid sparrow]

it says in the quest thing that pops up when you get there to park and dump the stuff out

[smoky trail]

yeah apparently its found on planets with high scrap

[wraith venture]

Sounds like this should all be reported to HG, no? No wonder why some players are hating the expo

[signal igloo]

waas there any goodies to be ahd?

had

[native bloom]

Yeah I just wanted to bitch somewhere before going to bed

[signal igloo]

gumsk you can tell us! we'll listen

and you are right it was the same but different

[worldly salmon]

Anyone have the details on how to unlock all the parts for the garbage truck?

[wraith venture]

I hope you have better luck next try. And get good sleep

[signal igloo]

i feel like gumsk can bitch he has high expectations of their work having made such cool things before

[native bloom]

Everything was fine up until that point. They either need to not have that mechanic or have big flashing signs that day "DON'T DO WHAT WE JUST TOLD YOU TO DO!"

[viscid sparrow]

i mean the quest tab that pops up and takes up the bottom right of your screen says dont do that

[native bloom]

I'm actually quite forgiving of their stuff. That was probably the biggest screw up I've seen in an expedition, all of them

[solemn bane]

Don't worry, after I did that, everything just kept getting worse. So you have that to look forward to.

[wraith venture]

Yeah, sounds like it's very bug report worthy. I hope HG makes some improvements before the expedition ends. This one's supposed to last a month, so there's time

[tidal pollen]

Enjoying a nice frozen treat until the Colossus reaches the next scrap pick up point

[worldly salmon]

This expo has a Community service punishment Vibe

[native bloom]

Like that was more infuriating than the "map 256 waypoints" or whatever from pioneers

[fierce kiln]

expedition done finally!!! love how it felt like snowrunner on chill mode, love the rock tree (i wish we could get that tree as decoration), loved the legs customisation and mostimportantly the graventino cannon cant wait to play pinball and other games made from them. lovely expedition

[tidal pollen]

It's just like trucking in real life

[somber owl]

east bound and down

[short zenith]

Based on many of the comments and our collective experiences with past expeditions, this one seems to break convention with respect to our expectations, e.g. 'where's my starship?' or trying to speedrun it doesn't work as we'd expect. But yeah, this one broke my expectations too. Still was able to finish it once I figured out the quirks.

[carmine plover]

wait can you no longer send upgrade modules to expeditions?

[tidal pollen]

You can't access your starship in this expedition specifically so you can't go to the Anomaly to grab your stuff

[signal igloo]

yeah you can send them but not collect until after you got a ship working

[viscid sparrow]

it kinda seems like some of the people complaining are just mad because stuff isnt handed to them like in other expeditions and they have to take some time to do stuff

[carmine plover]

i didnt even start the expedition, im packing items from my main save and notice modules dont appear on the menu even though they are on my inventory

[solemn bane]

What's funny is on paper I was psyched. Grav gun? Single planet? That sounds great!

In practice, however, not so much. Driving for 20-30 minutes to do part of one milestone? Repeating that many times? Yikes.

[native bloom]

Yeah, the main mechanics seem fine. It's way easier than Death Stranding

[carmine plover]

well looks like im not gonna need them anyway

[fierce kiln]

tbh thats how expeditions have been it felt same just no shortcuts this time

[tidal pollen]

I don't approve of the autodump thing not auto dumping in each specialized trash bin like the others complaining rn but overall I'm loving the Single Planet experience

it gives me a taste of LNF

[fleet trellis]

guys i just got in the expedition rn

[viscid sparrow]

and the people that complain about stuff flying out of the truck, have you tried not driving into the most rugged part of the planet and like, planning

[fierce kiln]

im just hope they dont give the rope tying feature to carry stuff like FNF style

[fleet trellis]

where am i supposed to find the freighter

[signal igloo]

take your time - there is no rush mode

[tidal pollen]

you're not, that mission is a bug

[wraith venture]

I wonder if the issue's resolved with the latest experimental version https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/814724377262215877/

[somber owl]

wtf im getting got by pirates??

[tidal pollen]

select the main mission on your expeditions pannel and it should be all good

[native bloom]

I didn't see it in the list

[smoky trail]

not really

just some reasources

[halcyon rose]

That's what I was thinking when I first encountered pirates in the expedition

[fleet trellis]

whats this

[viscid sparrow]

someones base

[signal igloo]

lol you're kidding HA!

[fleet trellis]

you can make base in exped?

[signal igloo]

neg

[viscid sparrow]

why wouldnt you be able to

[worldly salmon]

proof you dont play enough

[signal igloo]

you dont get the BP

[fleet trellis]

fiest tiem trying expedition

[native bloom]

I had to report like 60 or 70 bases to be able to get into a cave

[short zenith]

yeah, the driving was very grindy, though I must have gotten lucky because the longest distance for me was about 11 minutes between scrap yard and dump site. it would be great to see the devs expand on the grav gun tech a bit more, i think there is potential there

[tidal pollen]

enjoying the trucker life

[viscid sparrow]

can someone test something for me

can you scrap sentinels

[tidal pollen]

hmm

[signal igloo]

dang I should have tried

[tidal pollen]

would have to pick up gravitino balls near a scrap site which shouldn't be hard

[solemn bane]

Sure, that's how long it said the poi was away, but in practice you can't drive full speed all the way there

[signal igloo]

i mean i will tonight

[solemn bane]

If you're lucky you get to drive full speed for like 15 seconds when you find one of those gray tracks

[lofty phoenix]

when i get my ship or a fast method to a point wher i can sell my sstuff

[viscid sparrow]

you dont get the ship until you finish the expo

[solemn bane]

You get a Trade Rocket

[knotty pasture]

1 heap left

[tidal pollen]

will be interesting to load this expedition again in a month and see if people succeeded in building the sky highway

[haughty rover]

Recommend tech to bring?

[tidal pollen]

none

[signal igloo]

there wasn't a lot to sell, but those bones

[viscid sparrow]

cant bring anything, you cant access the anomaly

[solemn bane]

It'll be a new planet though

[knotty pasture]

You can't get any

[haughty rover]

There are slots to put tech before i start

[short zenith]

idk if others used it, but when the ship finally became available i used it a couple of times to fly to the scrap yard, then summoned my colossus at the yard. it saved me some time from having to drive over to the yard to get the cargo

[signal igloo]

to be fair- you can send anything you want but the anomaly is not until you are finished

[lofty phoenix]

what msut i do for unlock that

[tidal pollen]

there's no starship on this one

[solemn bane]

No idea, read the rewards on the milestones

[tidal pollen]

so you can't fly to the anomaly to grab the stuff you bring

[solar pawn]

guys, how to do the waypoints task one faster??

phase 3, chart waypoints

[fleet trellis]

i think i drifted far too much from the supposed area

[somber owl]

i fucking died

the god damn pirate??

[signal igloo]

I used the scanner on the truck to find the closest random points, like drop pods building etc.

[fleet trellis]

so we should go to the processing plant first then?

[signal igloo]

i had that done before finishing stage 2

[solar pawn]

the task before it. the monolith. monoliths dont have waypoint chart, right?

[solemn bane]

lol, when I got in my truck they could never hit me for some reason. Well, I think I took like one laser blast and then they just flew off.

[signal igloo]

no way? did you ignore them or kinda forget to move away?

[signal igloo]

same

[somber owl]

was driving back from rev1. cant really drive avay from a spaceship

and couldnt recharge any shield

[signal igloo]

1:100 shot uh?

[neon zephyr]

umm.. am i suposse to not be able to find my ship?

[solemn bane]

Correct.

[neon zephyr]

but the nearest station is like an hour away

[signal igloo]

i came upon my ship random like - left all the goodies to fix it on the hold, but fixing wasn't allowed

[royal basin]

You can find it, but you can't repair it until the end of the exp

[signal igloo]

i think around stage 4 i walked up to a ship it was mine

[main umbra]

Sooo I heard this expedition forces you on repetitive tedious 20 minute turtle waste walks... should I wait for them to make it less of a pain in the ass ?

[neon zephyr]

how do i complete the milestone that asks me to find checkpoints then?

[somber owl]

oh ffs i auto dumped my 5 special weaste

[viscid sparrow]

the driving is the expedition, if you dont wanna spend some time driving dont play it

[signal igloo]

i found it a new challenge

[fleet trellis]

oh yeah
about the vehicle

[lucid plover]

I wish I had read the pinned messages before finishing this exped 🙂

[fleet trellis]

are we building it ourself part per part?

[lucid plover]

I uderstand why though, before this expedition last message was from 2022

not the ship, the colossus you get upgrades as you complete phases and objectives in the expedition like cab, paint jobs, gripping, spider legs, etc

[remote thunder]

that is just a pin we've had for a long time, basically no need change it much, but it is handy to have at the top of the list. the next 3 posts for example, are all from 2025

[remote thunder]

nah, exocrafts already come fully assembled - colossus just has further customization options which open up more gameplay

[lucid plover]

well derp on my part; still stand by it's useful info - I lose a whole load to the auto scrap "feature"

[remote thunder]

def agreed

[somber owl]

i also did that

oh well i guess i gotta drive another 5 mins to a new one!

[tidal pollen]

oh, this is going to be interesting

[remote thunder]

see <#nms-questions message>, and/or the pinned post in this channel. leave milestone for last

[remote thunder]

seems that it's actually quite close - just take it slow, when going downhill dont accelerate

[lucid plover]

remember you can use the terrain flattener - got me through a lot of annoying hauls

[remote thunder]

yep, this too

[last summit]

Anyone else having trouble building the colossus geobay

It keeps saying I have no edit permission

[remote thunder]

no building permissions? near anotehr player's base

quick menu, scroll right, report base

then save+reload and try again

i'd also suggest having mp disabled

[haughty rover]

Ive found that turning off multiplayer i dont crash as much (xbox)

[signal igloo]

i see everyone put the tread in front, i chose rear for no reason but to be weird

[remote thunder]

seems that having tracks on the rear actually helps with stability

[tidal pollen]

it's just cosmetic with the tread right?

or are there gameplay changes

[remote thunder]

i've seen folks say this, also that mechanical legs are more stable as well

[tidal pollen]

I can't wait to get the legs

[signal igloo]

i was looking for track track but not there

[remote thunder]

it's got to be unlocked

[tidal pollen]

it's my next reward after this trip actually

[lucid plover]

the legs are great other than getting stuck in hydrogen crystals all the time

[signal igloo]

mine got here after or mid st4

[short zenith]

the s upgrades and the legs made everything for me a lot easier

[signal igloo]

mine it first or go around?

[tidal pollen]

gotta say, at least on PC, feels better for me to use keyboard and mouse to walk around with my character but the joystick gives me much better control of the colossus

[lucid plover]

if you get stuck you can sometimes just shoot it with the laser, but worse case is you get stuck and have to move the colossus dumping the load on the ground

[thick umbra]

Will be soon fixed
Fixed an issue that could cause the Colossus Exocraft mechanical legs to get caught on obstacles.

[signal igloo]

i had HAD to use 3rd person in the ecocraft- I hate 3rd person, but 1st wouldn't work

[lucid plover]

and very very rarely it will sink into the ground like quicksand, but I couldn't replicate when it happened

[fleet trellis]

oh someone invited me

wait why is my mic on

[signal igloo]

when i called my exo back a few time it spawned in the dirt and wouldn't move

[solemn bane]

lol, imagine doing that first treck in 1st person then hoppig out of your truck to find nothing in the bed

[outer lotus]

If you get stuck stuck on crystals you can generally get out and just mine them out from underneath. I haven't had any trouble when I do that.

[signal igloo]

the truck mining laser is WAY faster

it suck up things like a hoover

[outer lotus]

Yes but it can't get directly below

[short zenith]

i recall a few times stuff on the ground loaded slower than expected and objects like the gravatino balls or random scrap launched my colossus into the air, was funny only when i didn't have any cargo

[signal igloo]

i would slow or stop and clear my intended path

[outer lotus]

Usually best

[last summit]

Did so and didn’t work

[signal igloo]

loading distance was messed up often I have to say

[night robin]

I’m looking for some troubleshooting suggestions:
My account is connected to Twitch, and both yesterday and today I’ve watched more than three hours of drop-enabled streams, but no drops to claim have appeared in my Twitch drops inventory. Any idea what else I can look at to figure out the problem?

[signal igloo]

not even going fast

[outer lotus]

Aldo don't try to run over hazardous flora. It'll throw you.

[polar sage]

This planet is a nightmare for these long haul tasks

[remote thunder]

no other bases to report on quick menu? then you'll either want to go completely offline, or you just move away from any base computer icons nearby till you can (which probably be like 1000u away or so)

[short zenith]

yeah, a cave hole showed up too late for me to swerve out of the way!

[brittle elbow]

Man this expedition absolutely sucks

[outer lotus]

The dry river beds are your friends. If ones going in the general direction you are take it it'll be faster and safer

[brittle elbow]

I can see the vision behind it but the execution is just bad

[signal igloo]

it works... mostly

[brittle elbow]

Collision physics are an absolute mess

[rustic karma]

Not my favorite expedition but I applaud the devs for giving us a new one along with new updates and for free! I'll probably like these new updates more in my own save and hopefully on planets that are not so punishing!

[polar sage]

I like this concept but this was the wrong planet for it. Topography is awful.

[brittle elbow]

Your truck gets stuck in terrain all the time and everything from the flatbed just flies out randomly

[outer lotus]

Seems unfinished imo. Like this is just setting a framework for future stuff

[remote thunder]

You will receive a notification on Twitch when you have been awarded the items. Once awarded, you will have to claim the reward within Twitch. You will then need to claim the item in-game from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion in the Space Anomaly. If you are already logged in to the game, you’ll need to log out and log back in.

How long does it take for drops to show up in my game inventory?
Your reward should be redeemable in-game as soon as you have claimed it (by pressing the Claim button). You will receive a notification on Twitch when you have been awarded the items. Once awarded, you will need to claim the items within 24 hours of unlocking them to ensure you receive them. If the item does not show up after 30 minutes then your platform account may not have been connected to your Twitch account when you claimed the drop. You can connect your accounts on the account connection page. You will need to own No Man’s Sky on Steam, PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo Switch in order to receive the items. Xbox Game Pass subscribers are also eligible to receive rewards.

[brittle elbow]

This is probably the biggest issue with it, yeah

Also the POIs are way too far apart for not having a ship

[thick umbra]

I did call that save : Bob the Builder
And use it as Trucker Game now 🙂

[haughty rover]

Game breaking

[brittle elbow]

I mean once I max out the truck I'm sure it's going to be more fun to drive

[polar sage]

I like that the Colossus, planet topography, and sense of scale matter again. But good lord what a planet to demo it on.

[brittle elbow]

But at its current state it's just miserable

[night robin]

I appreciate the info, but the problem is that I’m not getting the notification, and there aren’t any drops to claim in inventory (Twitch, not NMS.)

[polar sage]

Which is a shame bc I really want this armor

[brittle elbow]

I really hope when they do a redux they do NOT pick this kind of terrain again

[solemn bane]

And/or the random trash heaps don't have enough special trash. I was missing one toxic trash and decided to just look in the random deposits for the last one. Naturally I found like a hundred volitile and radioactive before one toxic, and I ended up more than twice as far from the salvage location than the heap was, lol.

[thick umbra]

It will be even worse if you have all S Classes installed .. With Cargo on my bed I did only install B_Classes

[outer lotus]

I'd take this terrain over island's though

[brittle elbow]

Also I'm not sure if it's just me but using the scanner absolutely destroys my framerate

[brittle elbow]

Oh yikes
That is a good point

[solemn bane]

It will be one of those planets with the mile high mountains.

[polar sage]

It would be cool if (useless) Haulers got salvage bays added for the waste objects

[brittle elbow]

That's like, the two worst scenarios 😭

[signal igloo]

you all linked up? accounts from NMS to Twitch?

[remote thunder]

i'd suggest contacting twitch support then, if you're watching suitable streams

[brittle elbow]

I think there is a furnace hull for it but we probably need to unlock it

[brittle elbow]

And I don't know whether it can handle "special" scrap or only regular

[outer lotus]

Hauler ships

[polar sage]

I mean the ship

[short zenith]

i was reading somewhere that you could scan for each of the milestone waste sites and collect more of the 'special' cargo all at once, though to do that you select each milestone, then go there after scanning, but alas i didn't try it myself

[brittle elbow]

Oh, you mean a scrapper on the ship? Interesting idea

[remote thunder]

processed 200 waste to unlock

[polar sage]

RN differences in ship classes are negligable

[polar sage]

I mean a bay for carrying it

[brittle elbow]

Does the Furnace accept special waste?

[remote thunder]

corvette has plenty of differences to other ships if you asked me

[remote thunder]

sure afaik

[solemn bane]

Good luck hauling it all

[night robin]

When I checked it said I was still connected (from some months ago when I last got Twitch drops), and after a couple more hours of not seeing anything, I went through the connection steps again just in case. Didn’t make any difference, though.

[short zenith]

lol, yes for sure

[polar sage]

With the exception of corvettes

[last summit]

There’s so many because people think you need to put a base to put a geobay

[brittle elbow]

Also why don't we have access to portable refiners on this expedition? It's such a pain

[polar sage]

We have the backpack one

[solemn bane]

Finally found something in this game I will never unlock.

[night robin]

Thank you, I’ll do that. All of the streams have had a little dropdown message in chat, and they also have the “drops on” in the stream description.

[brittle elbow]

Yeah but I need the portable ones

[signal igloo]

nah

only to dupe

[outer lotus]

I loose the portable ones. I forget they're running and wander off to do something else.

[brittle elbow]

shh

[signal igloo]

you dont need to dupe use the expansions

[solemn bane]

Wait can you toss waste on your corvette? lol that may actually be fun

[remote thunder]

yep, we dont, but we wont be able to if we're near another player's base, because it takes away our permissions to build

[brittle elbow]

Resource gathering is a bit slow

[signal igloo]

oxy + ionisz makes tons

etc

[brittle elbow]

(by a bit I mean a LOT)

[chrome meadow]

I found 7/8 of the minerals, found the rock tree, checked the caves

[signal igloo]

use emeril + (i forget ) i looked it up while doing it to get x6 chromatic

[outer lotus]

That is an interesting idea. I doubt you're supposed to since AFAIK you can't fire your gun or laser in side the corvette.

[signal igloo]

i still need to find the last two rocks

[remote thunder]

works, but will be left behind

i've tried

[short zenith]

what about launching it in through the backdoor of the corvette?

[tepid grove]

The only part of the expedition I plan to do outside vr is the waypoints

[solemn bane]

Sigh lol. There goes my idea to customize this expedition to give you a corvette instead.

[last summit]

I literally cannot do the expedition

[remote thunder]

what's going on?

[last summit]

I’m just walking and walking and it’s saying no over and over

No edit perms

[remote thunder]

okay so - you could go totally offline, which will prevent all bases from downloading

[solemn bane]

Problem is once they are downloaded they are stuck in your save file

[chrome meadow]

yeah, I wish they disabled the base placing for this expedition, just so people can carve roads and stuff

[remote thunder]

but wont be able to pick up more

just keep moving

[solemn bane]

And reporting isn't working?

[last summit]

Yes but there’s so many

[somber owl]

offs pirates again, how do i combat this?

[solemn bane]

Oh I see, then yeah going offline is the answer

[solemn bane]

For most people they show up, shoot you once then just fly off while you're driving. I literally ignored them while in my truck.

[remote thunder]

i only saw them once, and they werent even attack me per se. do you have multiplayer enabled? i've seen weird stuff. e.g. a lost in space (derelict freighter) mission getting added to a player's Log while they were on a planet

[somber owl]

well they blew me up the first trip

offline

[last summit]

Ok

There we go

I walked so far dude lmao

[winged belfry]

is the waypoint milestone bugged? ive tried using several undiscovered waypoints and its not counting towards milestone progression

[knotty pasture]

Finally finished it

Heading over to anomaly now to confirm

[chrome meadow]

holy pins, that fuck

[tepid grove]

do the waste piles have a thing

location thingy

[short zenith]

i found it helpful to carry a save beacon with me during the exp, in case i ran into something really crappy and unexpected and could go back to a restore point

[solemn bane]

Uh, you can scan for heaps in your colossus, if that's what you're asking

[tepid grove]

Not what I mean
The waypoints you need to chart

[solemn bane]

Yes they have a thing

[jaunty vector]

is there a way to redo the expedition on the same save

[solemn bane]

There is on PC

[tepid grove]

Ok good
Imma go get this waypoint at an abandoned place and go back to the main depot and then go to vr

or should I do that part last

imma do that one last

[outer lotus]

Do it as you go. If there's a poi nearby head there on the way and grab the beacon. Thats how I got mine

[knotty pasture]

It has taken me 5 hours but I'm finally done

[left moat]

How many of the rock formations are in caves? I have 7 if the 8. Already found 2 in caves. Just didnt know if there was a 3rd in them or not.

[outer lotus]

Nope just 2.

[solemn bane]

The one you're missing is probably in the pins

[shut pasture]

Anyone else getting performance issues when using the exocraft scanner?

[left moat]

I can not for the life if me find this last 1. @solemn bane pins as in?

Nvm 🤣

[solemn bane]

"Pinned Messages"

[left moat]

@solemn bane I realized as soon as i set my phone down 🤣

[brittle elbow]

It murders my frames, yeah

I see you're on PS4 too, could be an old gen issue

[remote thunder]

worked smooth as butter here

[shut pasture]

Yeah my next question was gonna be is it a ps4 thing

[outer lotus]

I wasn't having trouble. My brother had some slight issues

He's on xbox

[brittle elbow]

Not just the scanner tho, the entire planet is a framerate devourer

[outer lotus]

The dust!

[brittle elbow]

They need to tone down the smoke particles by a LOT

[brittle elbow]

Yeah this

Or at least give us the option to disable them

[solemn bane]

lol yeah that's something I forgot to complain about. Those angles where you can't see a damn thing.

[remote thunder]

first person camera?

[brittle elbow]

Speaking of angles idk why but the truck third person camera feels kinda janky

[solemn bane]

I've forgotten the exact scenario but I kept hitting it in third person, like I couldn't see my haul to pick it up or something. I don't know I was so pissed off from hauling junk I could hardly see straight anyway.

[brittle elbow]

Also they need to make the truck bed force field hitboxes higher

I keep overshooting scrap tosses

[shut pasture]

Camera when loading the bed is terrible too

[brittle elbow]

Yeah that

Maybe shift the camera further back while you're using the grav gun

[tidal pollen]

trade rocket my beloved

my inventory is clean again

[remote thunder]

latest steam experimental patch is massive btw

[tidal pollen]

oh?

what did they fix?

[remote thunder]

https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/814724377262215877/

[shut pasture]

Really need a control to push/pull items when held with grav coil

[brittle elbow]

What's new?

[tidal pollen]

oh let me click, thanks

[remote thunder]

go check it out, it's literally a wall of text

[solemn bane]

Added audio to the "Toot Toot!" gesture.

Game changer.

[tidal pollen]

WE ARE SO BACK

[remote thunder]

Fixed an issue that could cause the Colossus Exocraft mechanical legs to get caught on obstacles.
e.g.

they're working tirelessly

Fixed an issue in the Remnant expedition that could prevent waypoints to fail to count towards the Roadsigns milestone.

[solemn bane]

Improved the Gravitino Coil's ability to magnetise armoured Sentinel drones.

Cool but I still want to kill a walker with sentinels. That's the only thing I wanted to do when I saw the grav gun 😢

Give me a kill walkers with sentinels expedition.

[fervent umbra]

I am so glad we have cross saves now, especially for this expedition because there's really no way to cheese it and I would not enjoy having to do this multiple times on each separate platform. Oof

[jaunty vector]

how do we get the stuff on normal playthroughs?

oh nvm

ignore me

[solemn bane]

You could cheese it on PC by going offline and changing the amounts required for every milestone to 0

[signal igloo]

i am looking forward to doing it over n over...

No one even mentions the new trick thing we GOT in the expedition.... loadouts!!!@!!! you can save loadouts!!!

[tidal pollen]

OKAY the legs are super cool

[lofty phoenix]

have anyone els teh trouble with finde all 9 plants?

[wraith junco]

Look in caves

[fervent umbra]

And that's fine, I'm not saying you shouldn't be looking forward to that but it's a different thing when you're forced to run it over and over to get the rewards on each platform rather than having the option to do it. It's nice knowing that I only have to run it once to get the rewards on every platform, in case it's one I don't find interesting.

[vagrant bloom]

How the hell im i going to find the 6 Waypoints 😩 in my years of playing no mans sky I encountered like 3 or so😅

[wraith junco]

Waypoint is the save pole on poi

[fervent umbra]

Use the radar on the Colossus to scan for drop pods or depots.

[signal igloo]

every drop pod and building has it

[shut pasture]

Or when you get the message that you're entering a new area look around for the building icon

[signal igloo]

the twirly tower

[cerulean apex]

If I scanned creatures before getting the Cyclops scope is there anything I can do or is that milestone just locked off to me?

[vagrant bloom]

i were there and activated it but nothing happened. doesnt the game mean the big poles

the one that randomly stand alone and are way bigger

[lofty phoenix]

i found alredy 2 plant in caves or is in teh cave 3 plant?

[solemn bane]

Once you scan them all (and upload the scans I believe) it'll finish

[cerulean apex]

Thank you. I was worried that I'd just softlocked myself.

[signal igloo]

so, y'all - the waypoint milestone is not counting the really tall antennae, it's the shorty waypoints that have the names like outpost camp, like a public save point. often has a green box a few ammo boxes and sometimes a health box...

[kindred mesa]

I'm tired, Boss

[lofty phoenix]

have anyone allm plants an can post a picture of all of them ?

[signal igloo]

at every POI you ever been to. like the drop pods for suit upgrades

[signal igloo]

how did you get such magnificent AIR!!!

[lucid plover]

I came this close to just quitting the exped trying to get toxic and radioactive, but when I found out twitch drops were available that pushed me through (plus one less mod to deal with to get them anyways)

[kindred mesa]

I'm pretty sure that stupid scoop is broken and glitches into the geometry, causing the entire Colossus to ragdoll -.-

Unequipped it now, could be that I had too much stuff on it from looting 2 adjacent Dumps

[signal igloo]

idk - i would say dont run over hard points - dont clip close to plants - hit straight on or not at all

but yeah comes off easy enough once you get the roadkill and bulldozers milestones

[lucid plover]

I still lost loads hitting small bumps and the physics deciding to fling stuff everywhere

[kindred mesa]

I mean I've been doing exactly that for 3h now, dodging plants, animals, rocks, gravballs, boxes, everything. It'll happen on straight terrain with no obstacles. That's why I was saying it's probably the scoop glitching into random geometry causing the insane ragdoll :l

[shut pasture]

I feel the hauling physics are fine. Any time I've lost cargo has been user error. Hitting holes/cave entrances in the ground does tend to launch exocraft though

[chrome meadow]

pain, I've had that happen before

[shut pasture]

And I haven't been driving slow.

[signal igloo]

i had one point shot me up - not so gloriously tho

[kindred mesa]

Been driving super slow, uphill as well 😆

[chrome meadow]

I think the physics is fine, it's the planet that they put the expedition on that's the problem

[signal igloo]

i avoided non destroyables after

[lofty phoenix]

wich plant am i missing?

[lucid plover]

Just need a roof for thecargo bed then no problems

[signal igloo]

i would reload maybe nxz just to be sure

[kindred mesa]

Good call, gonna restart

[chrome meadow]

I don't think a permanent roof would be good, maybe just something to keep the cargo in when you hit a bump or go over a peak

[signal igloo]

i mean i never had that much happen

[kindred mesa]

Had legit 5 in a row within 5 minutes around the same area - couldn't get far

[lucid plover]

or a flatbed ship that you toss cargo in that just stays horizontal as you cruise from waste dump to processing.... or road building 🙂

[shut pasture]

All these solutions defeat the purpose 😂

[kindred mesa]

5th time I didn't bother running after the stuff that slid down the hill because I cba anymore

[lucid plover]

purspose of making me never want to use this outside of the expedition? 👼

[chrome meadow]

while a ship would be cool, I feel like it would invalidate the colossus instantly, road building would be great though, maybe make the roads hold colossus (and other exocraft) tires stronger

[shut pasture]

Like saying basketball can be fixed by putting the hoop at 4' lmao

[kindred mesa]

It's honestly such a cool addition, but the mountaneous ranges and massive distances between dumps and processing plants aren't doing the promotion a favor 🤣

[lucid plover]

I know it's stress testing, and props to Hello Games doing it, but I know why I'd never make a good truck driver IRL

[chrome meadow]

totally agreed, a more flat planet would be a good showcase for the system with less frustration

[signal igloo]

you imagine on a lowgrav no atmos - you would be in orbit!!!

[kindred mesa]

At least I could slingshot all the materials from one dump to another that way

[chrome meadow]

yeah, you probably wouldn't be able to haul anything in a lowgrav planet with any hills

[signal igloo]

i had a monstrous knock me to orbit at the beginning of corvettes

i was on planet one second and floating alone in orbit the next..

[lofty phoenix]

Which plant am I missing?

[signal igloo]

i got headbutt by the horror

[shut pasture]

Lol fauna can launch waste you've dropped

[noble linden]

I need one more chart point, also I'm unable to build a base anyone know why?

[signal igloo]

use the grav blast on no grav moon and space will fill up with junk -

lol

there is some testing to do

[fierce robin]

If you are playing the Expedition you dont have the Base com until you Finish it

[shut pasture]

There's also a sweet spot to the amount of cargo to load. If you fill the bed it jostles around less, but if you overfill pieces resting on others will tend to get launched

[noble linden]

Scanning for structures, drop pods, depots just giving me past locations and not new ones

So I'm forced to drive 44ks

I just need one more chart point everything else is completed lol

[signal igloo]

use the truck scanner to find a drop pod

[noble linden]

Ye it's giving me one I already found

I saved logged to primary and returned. Still giving me same one

So I'm driving toward trade post and hoping I find random structure

[glossy steeple]

cba with this expedition any more. I’m in the get 16 of each waste in phase 5. The scanner keeps.sending me to the same waste dump that I’ve been to before. Special waste not respawning. Not in MP 🤣

[signal igloo]

if you find a drop pod you spin the short tower and you need to add the suit slot- then look for another

[shut pasture]

How many do you have left? Special waste does spawn in some of the random piles

[signal igloo]

or you can use the one at a depot

[glossy steeple]

3 of each to get.

[signal igloo]

or the the telephone

i added 6-7 slots all spawned about 3-5 minutes away

then i was done

[noble linden]

Found a random structure! Expedition rent comolete

[sterile pulsar]

In Phase 3 what does the 5th Part mean with Waypoints ?

[noble linden]

Complete

Awarded heirloom set sick

[shut pasture]

@glossy steeple yeah a site is probably best but you could also just drive around and find them. Special waste should respawn, maybe restart the game

[noble linden]

I gotta drive 30 mins to my star ship wish me luck lol

[chrome meadow]

gl, put on some music to make the time go faster

[storm plank]

those antenna-looking things near outpost, shipcrashes, etc.

[lofty phoenix]

have anyone alle fauna pls i dont finde the last one

[sterile pulsar]

Ive been at a few points already but those dont seem to count

[chrome meadow]

what fauna do you have found?

[storm plank]

you have to chart new ones, those are claimed

[chrome meadow]

so

[sterile pulsar]

Gotcha

[chrome meadow]

that's not fauna, that's flora

[storm plank]

ive spend like 2 hours on that one mission

[lofty phoenix]

oh my bad

[chrome meadow]

fauna is animals

[lofty phoenix]

i need teh last plant

[storm plank]

i think north is better option, but you can try your luck with trade station

[sterile pulsar]

doing that rn !

[chrome meadow]

for what? you don't need to scan the plants for anything in this expedition?

[glossy steeple]

Yes. I’ll head back in the direction of the processing plant and check every industrial waste icon I see on the way there.

[lofty phoenix]

sub mission

[chrome meadow]

sub mission???

[slim sandal]

Does the new cyclops attachment work on all the exocraft or just the Colossus ?

[signal igloo]

we dont know yet

well I

[lofty phoenix]

i have a mission with scan all flora fauna and minarals

[chrome meadow]

weird, well, gl

[sterile pulsar]

I dont think thats a Expedition quest

Same quest but in german

[hasty seal]

Oh is it the Exploration Mission? That's a universal mission across all planets

[lofty phoenix]

ja diese

[versed tree]

Now this is a kicker, i need 5 more radioactive waste but the scrap heap im at has zero and scanning for scrap heaps just keeps pointing me to the one im already at

[chrome meadow]

ngl, I wish we could get an exosuit clamp on corvettes

[errant shuttle]

Anyone else having a hard time putting down the colossus launch bay?

[chrome meadow]

look around for the piles, you can use the scope to look for specialist scrap

[signal igloo]

well clear it out and move far on. there are tons of roadside junk piles

[slim sandal]

I had to just roam random piles throughout the world to find the last 2 I needed

[last summit]

The expedition keeps causing hard crashes on my console damn

[signal igloo]

jinx

[chrome meadow]

wild, what console?

[slim sandal]

I also had to turn MP off because people kept stealing my stuff out of my truck as I drove up.

[glossy steeple]

No. But I’ve learnt that you have to be careful when you recall your colossus - its wheels like to get stuck in the ground.

[signal igloo]

did you verify files?

[shut pasture]

This is exactly what I'm doing. I KNOW there's a heap more than 12 minutes away because the first one the exped sent me to was only 5 lol

[errant shuttle]

noted

[slim sandal]

I found it easier, if not more tedious, to dig my Colossus out of a lot of caves/holes it fell into instead of trying to resummon it.

[chrome meadow]

damn, that was quick

[languid jacinth]

Hey frens is it out on xbox yet?

[glossy steeple]

I’ve noticed that because this Exped takes place on one planet, lots of players are in close proximity with each other which really degrades performance. I hope LNF won’t be like that seeing as it takes place on one planet. 😲

[shut pasture]

Kinda hilarious ngl

[glossy steeple]

Right. Two green, one yellow to get.

[chrome meadow]

gl

[simple raptor]

dang it wouldve been so much faster if i knew i could steal from everyone elses trucks
good to know tho

[glossy steeple]

Thanks 🤣

[glossy steeple]

Same 🤣

[simple raptor]

i wonder if you can just grab it all into your own truck and then turn multiplayer off right after

[glossy steeple]

That would be awesome 🤣

[errant shuttle]

yes

[signal igloo]

spirit of pirating

[languid jacinth]

Thank you buddy

[errant shuttle]

your welcome

[grizzled valve]

any good expedition guides out now?

[chrome meadow]

idk if this would make trucking too easy, but I think the excavator blade should flatten terrain

[fierce robin]

@languid jacinth on Xbox ITS bugging a lot

[languid jacinth]

Ew anything in particular I should watch out for?

[sturdy zealot]

Do the spider legs make any functional difference?

[chrome meadow]

not a bug, but consider doing this expedition in single player

[languid jacinth]

There's been a few exp I've done over the years where I had to turn off myltiplayer

Lol it's like I read your mind haha

[chrome meadow]

yeah, in multiplayer, people have been putting up bases everywhere, also, people WILL steal shit out of your truck bed

[languid jacinth]

Hahaha I actually think that would be funny

[fierce robin]

On Xbox ITS crashing a lot

Used saves often dont Work from what I have heard

[chrome meadow]

tbh, this is my first expedition in ps5, and it's been buttery smooth for me, no crashes, bit of lag and stuff from the sheer amount of people in multiplaer tho

[fickle lion]

Is anybody else having trouble with the flatbed of the colossus ? The trash doesn’t stay in the flatbed for me
Am I doing something wrong or not doing something for this to occur

[lost sphinx]

It can fly out of the top of you're not careful

[fickle lion]

Hm, its not staying at all

[versed tree]

fellow truckers, beware of this conveniently hidden and bushed up ravine

[last summit]

The chart waypoints mission is very tedious. Is there a quick way to do so?

[chrome meadow]

I've had a bit of trouble with it, the planet sucks for this expedition, just take the peaks extra carefully

[chrome meadow]

omfg, I would actually scream

[fickle lion]

Hm, whenever i drive it immediately fallss off, as if its not supposed to even be there. Im wondering how to make it stay

[lost sphinx]

Every rendezvous point has a waypoint at it, so you've got 5 right there.

[fierce robin]

The planet ist really good at hiding holes

[fickle lion]

It falls the second i drive

[lost sphinx]

All you would probably need to do then is just search for another structure with the scanner

[chrome meadow]

weird, idk how to fix that, gl tho

[last summit]

Missed all of them damn

[lost sphinx]

Oof…

[fickle lion]

😢 😞 this sucks, ive done so many fixes and i cant progress in the expedition because the flatbed isnt keeping any scrap

[chrome meadow]

eh, my waypoints haven't been counting tbh
