nms-expedition

[vital aspen]

Yes, it isn't built yet.

[tepid grove]

not built

[broken girder]

Ok thank you

[river oyster]

will there be a special reward for the team who succeeds the most

[broken girder]

I don't know

[tepid grove]

maybe?

[vital aspen]

As far as we know, it's just getting the team name plastered in the Nexus. No actual reward.

[tepid grove]

ykw
Im not gonna grind for more hypercores
Imma go do some dailies in another game and then just do the exp

[broken girder]

If I don't misunderstand we can't fight the the hive glass in normal game?

It's only for the expedition

[vital aspen]

Right now, yes. Who knows what they'll do with it once it's over.

[broken girder]

It can be cool to see them in normal game

[eternal dagger]

test

[wheat chasm]

Is this normal? How do I complete the quest?

[plush pilot]

I cannot make glass, says I have no edit perms

[neon belfry]

Is it normal i don't see the expedition yet ?

[vital aspen]

You wait. It's a community goal.

[vital aspen]

What platform are you on?

[neon belfry]

Xbox Series

[vital aspen]

Xbox doesn't have the update yet

[wheat chasm]

@vital aspenOh, so I can't continue the expedition unless I complete this quest?

[neon belfry]

Hm... okay... thanks for your answer, have a good day

[vital aspen]

The community has to construct the core. Until that's done, nobody can do anything past that point.

[remote thunder]

so, phase 1 reward, all get the posters, but if you're red you get royals flag pack, if blue you get weavers, etc?

[slender lodge]

I wonder how they’re accounting for the differences in play times and such so that everyone feels like they contributed

[wheat chasm]

@vital aspenI'll be happy to wait😅

[vital aspen]

Looks that way. The fireworks are team coded as well it seems.

[turbid vapor]

I cannot import corvette in this expedition?

[vital aspen]

No

[steep cloud]

Do we know when xbox will get it?..

[eternal dagger]

pain Weavers have over 50 less Travellers then the #2 place (sages) and 100 less than Royals

[steep cloud]

Its with everything. Xbox gets it all last

So annoying..

[vital aspen]

Up to Microsoft. All the updates have to be vetted by them, not HG

[turbid vapor]

Can I import any other ship of mine, then?

[steep cloud]

They treat us like trash man.

Cant wait to throw my shit out and get a play station or a pc

Always last with everything we are

[light sonnet]

wish i could choose team, i wanted weaver and got sage

[vital aspen]

I can't answer that, I only tried my Corvette. If you have ships from other expeds, you can create them at the quicksilver terminal though.

[livid dust]

wait is the expedition live rn?

[novel aspen]

for some people

[steady idol]

Oh can I not create my ship in this expedition?

[livid dust]

which means...?

[icy hazel]

Not all consoles have the patch yet

[novel aspen]

^

[livid dust]

does PC have it

[icy hazel]

Yes

[hearty compass]

How long abouts will it take for countermeasures to be completed

[livid dust]

ok thanks

[vital aspen]

Yeah one of the big reasons I stopped buying consoles tbh

[hazy vector]

royals on top

team red

[lapis nymph]

Can we not use Corvettes during the expedition? I saw some in the trailer, but I cant seem to make one

[vital aspen]

No idea. Depends on how fast the community works.

[hearty compass]

Fr

[hearty compass]

Better start working then bois

[turbid vapor]

Oh, wraith only...

[novel aspen]

high key wish i was a weaver

[hearty compass]

What are u?

[novel aspen]

sage

[hearty compass]

Why do u wanna be bottom

[turbid vapor]

Any diff except color?

[hearty compass]

You gotta be a royal

[novel aspen]

because idc about winning i want blue rewards not green rewards

[lapis nymph]

the player number seems to affect it quite a lot
the more players, the higher the team

[hearty compass]

What does traveller fragments mean

[lapis nymph]

the players in the team

[versed cedar]

am i supposed to be able to do more than 3 missions per 4+ hours?

[hearty compass]

Damn

[vital aspen]

Nope

[steady idol]

I can't create my starship in the anomaly this one no?

[hearty compass]

That means I was the first royal???

[earnest aurora]

😆

[sage wyvern]

anyone else had this issue? Can't get the last piece out of the swarmer wreck because it's either completely stuck inside or nonexistent. This is the third wreck in a row where I've been unable to completely salvage

[versed cedar]

so were just stuck in this expedition till the community builds this thing?

[vital aspen]

Try from the front

[lapis nymph]

go to the front
you need to detach the front piece

[hearty compass]

Indeed

[prisma oak]

Yes

[sage wyvern]

Ohh, I see

ty

[versed cedar]

i see

thanks

[vital aspen]

You can transfer back to your main save at any time. Just make sure not to end your expedition at the terminal.

[versed cedar]

oh, awesome. Thanks again!

[signal igloo]

from any menu there is an option to goto main save

the system tab

[vital aspen]

Expedition Terminal, in the Nexus.

[signal igloo]

no no

right above the exit and name this save

return to main

[vital aspen]

Ah, must be a new introduction

[signal igloo]

i swear its been there for ever exped so far

since the terminus was installed

[turbid vapor]

Mweh, inability to summon corvette is offensive.

[junior ravine]

i jus found a swarmer thats been full boxed by the mining tool

[signal igloo]

there was no main before that

[junior ravine]

why must people grief

[vital aspen]

It's possible. I always just use the terminal

[vital aspen]

Turn off multiplayer

[signal igloo]

report the base?

it vanishes

[junior ravine]

wasnt a base

[signal igloo]

oh

[steady idol]

So I can claim a ship from last expedition but I can't get my corvette 😭

[signal igloo]

sorry

then i is a lost boi

[junior ravine]

its alr

[vital aspen]

Correct

[turbid vapor]

Normals ship is not summonable too (tried to import solar)

[junior ravine]

nothing to be sorry about

[steady idol]

That's devastating

[signal igloo]

i guess i mean I don't understand the grief mechanic in play

[granite spindle]

Royals stay winning. Sages (unwashed) and Weavers (peasants) go home!

[junior ravine]

just to understand, i can always switch between the expedition and my main game?

[signal igloo]

that has been the case for them lately

[vital aspen]

That is my understanding, yes.

[junior ravine]

yall got 20 more players, of course youre winning

[eternal dagger]

Just my luck that I joined the Worst Team. I also chose Instinct back when pokemon go came out lmao

[junior ravine]

weavers?

[eternal dagger]

yep

[junior ravine]

L

[vital aspen]

This exped is going to be live for 55 more days it looks like. I can imagine the players wouldn't be too happy being locked into an expedition save for 2 months, dependant on community goals.

[lapis nymph]

82 more than weavers 💀

[junior ravine]

jk

[junior ravine]

lmaooo yea, im lucky i still got sage

[signal igloo]

how do you know if your chose it - or did it chose you?

[rapid flicker]

We're winning now, remains to see what happens when quests refresh

[junior ravine]

it chooses based on the answers you gave in the first thingy

[lapis nymph]

I got weaver
which im fine with
I wanted either Sage or Weaver Blue and Green peak fr

[junior ravine]

you cant influence it

[vital aspen]

Player teams are pre-determined by your account on launch btw. The questions don't change anything.

[lapis nymph]

I hope the team numbers balance out then
cause right now its a bit unbalanced

[junior ravine]

damn

[rapid flicker]

Would explain how balanced the teams are tbh

[light sonnet]

any idea what about the account determines it?

[vital aspen]

It's probably just an algorithm that runs to balance the teams. Not anything about the account itself.

[heady pilot]

Nobody is lucky, everyone gets their preferred result. The quiz is a sham, the answers you give are completely irrelevant...the game looks at you profile statistics, what race did you most favor on your other saves, and that's the result you get.

[remote thunder]

well, i favor korvax most, and got royal

[eternal dagger]

same but I got weaver

[remote thunder]

it's weird

[junior ravine]

makes sense now that i think about it, gek is green right?

[light sonnet]

feels off to me, teams are def severely unbalanced

[remote thunder]

dont worry about that stuff

[heady pilot]

Yes.

[remote thunder]

chill out and have fun

[signal igloo]

i have a new account on GOG wonder what I could test

[junior ravine]

well, i learned gek language the most sooooo

[lapis nymph]

I favour Korvax most and got Weaver
im not sure if its that tbh

[river swift]

Anyone else encountering players that are able to kill other players in the expedition, while they seem unkillable? 🤔

[junior ravine]

it could be chosen by what language you have the most progress in

[junior ravine]

jus turn pvp or multiplayer off

[remote thunder]

exactly - i'm well over 1000 standing points in my main save, but how did it know that if that info isn't on the accountdata file, that's per save?

[light sonnet]

korvax main who got sage here

[remote thunder]

anyways

[signal igloo]

looks like the gek are going to bleed - and they are my saves fav r n

[heady pilot]

Did you have the most standing with the Vy'keen? Did you visit more Vy'keen systems? etc. It's what you do that matters.

[lapis nymph]

players that are seemingly teleporting around?

[junior ravine]

what faction do you have the most words with tho?

[remote thunder]

nah - i'm quite sure that i've visited far more, but like wayyy more korvax systems than anything else

[light sonnet]

absolutely korvax, not even close

[river swift]

Oh no though I did see that earlier, I was in a sabotage mission and 3 players were standing on a small hill, shooting other players, one shotting them, but they seemed immortal as they'd never die

[granite spindle]

leaked ending:

[remote thunder]

and in terms of standing, yeah, korvax is 1000% my highest

[river swift]

Even saw a ship try to shoot them haha

[naive prism]

"corvette assembly unavailable"?

[signal igloo]

that would reflect when we run the autophage part

[naive prism]

did anyone else try to build a corvette yet?

[heady pilot]

You're like the only one I heard not get what he wanted...everyone gets what they want. Maybe it's a combination of your stats across all your saves? Not sure.

[remote thunder]

yeah maybe

[remote thunder]

cant

[naive prism]

it's kind of mean that i can't assemble a corvette when they showed basically only corvettes in the trailer :/

also i just wasted 3 hours scavenging parts together 😭

[lapis nymph]

I did
its not possible it seems

[safe cosmos]

Has anyone found any Star bulbs???

[lapis nymph]

I took up half of the space for stuff we can take along with corvette parts 😔

[vital aspen]

Yes. Use your scanner on mode 3 with the milestone selected

[remote thunder]

try to find a building, then start walking west or east - use photo mode camera as a drone camera to look ahead

[atomic estuary]

⚠️ Attention

Gunter will post a couple of messages for a pin in a moment. Anything caught in-between will be deleted so hold on for a moment

[naive prism]

can we still build ships?

[atomic estuary]

Ok, it has been done

Thank you

[vital aspen]

GUNTER, who told you you could fly?

[safe cosmos]

Yeah it says location service unavailable

[arctic epoch]

Anything Important to take with me?

[vital aspen]

Hmm, did you pin the recipe you need?

[lapis nymph]

not corvettes
normal ones i dunno
but I did see someone with a sentinel ship, so i think we can find those

[modern willow]

What exactly does tearing apart Swarmer wrecks do (outside of a Core objective)?

[rapid flicker]

Royals have less sabotage and more restore done than sages and are still winning

[eternal dagger]

I think you can also claim previous expedition ship rewards

[safe cosmos]

Yes.

[vital aspen]

Huh, alrighty. Do you have the other components you need for the product? Try making them first and checking them off the recipe.

[analog meteor]

Does anyone know what the game actually does to calculate your role? I've seen people talking about "preferred race", but which equates to which? I interacted with Korvax the most and got Sage.

[vital aspen]

Also ensure you have your hazmat gauntlets installed.

[steady idol]

Are corvettes just disabled this expedition or?

[lapis nymph]

they are also a lot more players

[vital aspen]

We're pretty sure it's literally just a balancing algorithm for the teams.

[safe cosmos]

Yep. I have.

[lapis nymph]

seems like it

[cinder minnow]

Found a beautiful blue weird planet only slightly off the beaten path

[plain flare]

Anyone else stuck on phase 2 part 4?

[steady idol]

Bugga
Id have assigned a different ship had I known

[cinder minnow]

All are.

[lapis nymph]

Weaver planet 🔥

[cinder minnow]

It's a community objective

[vital aspen]

Best advice I can give is just what BK said then. Use your camera mode as a scout drone and look around. It sucks, but it's about the only way.

[safe cosmos]

Can I still copy one?

[lapis nymph]

from the main save?
no

[cinder minnow]

We cannot claim any starships from our main save, and we cannot build new corvettes within the expedition

[vital aspen]

It's a community goal. Until that core is built we're all in the same boat.

[plain flare]

Okay

[analog meteor]

So the player does not have any control over the role they get, no matter anything they do before the expedition?
I'm just trying to learn if it's completely random, which it doesn't seem to be, or how the game actually decides which you are.

[arctic epoch]

?

[cinder minnow]

Allegedly it's fully random, predetermined based on your uniquely given ID

[vital aspen]

From what I've seen, yes. People have tried feeding it different answers, but it doesn't matter what you tell it evidently.

[plain flare]

Is there anyway for me to help move it forward?

[stone lotus]

Is that id per save or per account (all saves)?

[vital aspen]

Do the missions when they come off cool down.

[cinder minnow]

Account I would assume, as that would be very easy to do

and would go along with what the intention clearly is (no team switching)

[remote thunder]

yeah it's per account, others have tested already

[safe cosmos]

This is ridiculous 🙂

[naive prism]

yeah i have one of those too

[stone lotus]

Well at least that means I don't have to do the expedition multiple times to get everything

[naive prism]

but i want to build a beefy S-class fighter instead to take on the swarm with a bit more juice 😁

[stone lotus]

Just once since I can't pick the team

[vital aspen]

I'm looking forward to facing off with my S-class Dreadnought. Provided HG lets me warp it in.

I've been wanting capital ship combat revamps for a long time. But with the release of corvettes it looks less likely

[hazy vector]

wait can the expedition even be completed

[vital aspen]

Eventually. Not right now.

[cinder minnow]

Not until the community thing is reached

[lapis nymph]

We have two months
so I assume its gonna take a bit

[hazy vector]

aw man

guess ill have to save edit the cool armour in

[chrome perch]

3 missions per day from Prismatic Core?

[vital aspen]

It's a bit like the Liquidators exped. Gotta wait for those community goals.

[vital aspen]

Yup

[hazy vector]

this is gonna take ages

[lapis nymph]

damn

[vital aspen]

I assume that counter is either bugged or updates on rollover.

[chrome perch]

We have two months, easy.

[hazy vector]

maybe 6.41 fixes this

[chrome perch]

Also, the xbox and switch didn't update

[hazy vector]

yep

[vital aspen]

Just remember, we can swap back and forth between normal saves and exped saves whenever. So you can just hop back into the exped and do the missions before hopping back to your main if you like.

[chrome perch]

I'm not coming to my main without the armor set

[vital aspen]

Welp, cya in 2 months I guess lol

[chrome perch]

Don't think it will take that long

[vital aspen]

For the armor, nah prolly not.

[chrome perch]

I'm on 3rd Phase anyway 🙂

[plain flare]

How do I finish the emperor of glass in phase 2

[solemn bane]

I tried to stay up to play it but passed out. Sucks to be old, lol. Gona try playing it offline right now. Should be interesting.

[stoic wing]

is it a good idea to do the expediton terminal for this one?

[hollow silo]

I wish the “test” thing they gave us influenced our position, thought the answer would matter but nah just fixed already

[tropic mason]

I deleted my main save file. So not an option! Lol

[vital aspen]

You wait.

[strong summit]

You know, I’m thankful with all these cool updates…but I can’t help but think this is taking away work being done for the production of Light No Fire

[vital aspen]

NMS is their testing ground for light no fire features.

[charred palm]

Hey guys! I just started a fresh save on NMS today. My plan was to focus entirely on the expedition first and then jump into my new normal playthrough... but since we're currently time-gated by the community Nexus missions, I'm stuck waiting. Do you think I should just chill, do the Nexus stuff and wait it out, or should I run both saves in parallel?

[spare halo]

Some absolute doorknob covered the mission area and ppl were confused how to get there.

I simply used the revert terrain option xD

Useless troll

[astral dome]

I am still stuck on part 2 of phase 1

[spare halo]

I recommend to do the timed 3 missions whenever they appear and outside of that, play on main

I just finished all the stuff leading up to those and now completed them. No reason to play expedition until a fresh batch of missions appears

[charred palm]

ho ok thx 🙂

[signal heath]

Is there a guide on what to bring for this expedition yet?

[plucky island]

Yeah some idiot covered it and I blewa hole through it

[spare halo]

I recommend a copy of your main save multitool and a bunch of starship weapon stuff

[primal wagon]

For the swarm expedition. Can you even get to the anomaly to get your stuff later or is it not worth it?

[livid dust]

how am i supposed to place my damn refiner if every piece of land around me is claimed

[vital aspen]

Guide: hyper cores(optional)
There ya go 🙂

[chrome perch]

You can, but I didn't took anything and didn't had any issues.

[primal wagon]

Thanks

[zenith coyote]

How do you get chromatic metal on the starter planet

[vital aspen]

Mine the stalagtites in caves that give copper. Refine the copper.

[zenith coyote]

Oh right. Caves. Should’ve figured

[livid dust]

how do i place my refiner

everywhere around me is claimed

[lost scarab]

Probably really Dumb question here but how do I get glass on the starting planet

[safe cosmos]

So you can’t replicate a starship of any kind?

[vital aspen]

Refine silicate powder

[craggy sun]

Is the area where your ship is claimed?

that was fine for me

[livid dust]

probably

[lost scarab]

Thank you ^^'

[plucky island]

I completed Swarm, restore and sabotage, it’s telling me to do more but I can’t?

[vital aspen]

Correct, the prismatic core is a community goal. Until it's built, nobody can do more.

[dusky beacon]

How am i supposed to get 520 nanites for the gravitino gun ? I'm playing on a new save I'm poor

[fringe star]

They give you one

[dusky beacon]

Oh 😳

[smoky panther]

go in the expedition tab you unlock rewards from there

[dusky beacon]

Oh , ty guys

[urban vessel]

Finally a combat/story expedition. Space garbage and Pokemon crap wasnt cutting it for me.

[mossy breach]

Agreed, I wouldn't call it crap, but those content updates just weren't for me sadly

I hope base building and industrialization gets an update at one point

Now THAT'S for me

Imagine a dimensional storage that lets you connect miners to it, and then you can link it up in an entirely different system and move the resource into a refiner, chaining things together to make a factory

[vocal panther]

How. the heck are we suppose to get Star Bulbs.. without haz-mat gauntlets? I am completely lots on this.

[urban vessel]

👍🏻

[mossy breach]

Get the gauntlet :>

[vocal panther]

How? I cannot get off the planet.

[wintry void]

How do I craft the pilots signature

[wary crow]

Star bulbs at -24.20, +0.99

[rapid flicker]

You make the haz mat gauntlet 🙂

[vocal panther]

How can I without getting the blue prints for it?

[rapid flicker]

I did have them, it's on the exosuit tech

[delicate elk]

They're one of the rewards

[cinder acorn]

ok idk wtf to do cuz first of all the swarm wreckage is laggy af and second of all the gravitino coil just doesnt work at all

[delicate elk]

Also there are 3 phases it's a lot shorter than I expected

[vocal panther]

.... OMG, I completely missed it. Thank you!

[wintry void]

How do I craft the pilots signature

[lone echo]

True
And no really grindy missions
BUT the last phase is now community dependent and probably won't be achievable any time soon

[vocal panther]

Thanks for the location share too!

[cinder acorn]

this is actually fkng unplayable dude

cant do jack fkng anything

[remote thunder]

kill fauna to get mordite

[cinder acorn]

coil doesnt work i got 10 fps at best at the wreckage

[mossy breach]

You ok?

[mossy breach]

Have you tried disabling multiplayer

[rapid flicker]

I could've swore it was a later reward cuz i had the blueprint but i still didn't have the tech itself

[wintry void]

then

[naive crypt]

Turn off multiplayer

[primal wagon]

Do you have multiplayer disabled?

[sour blade]

does anyone know why "create starship" would be greyed out in the expedition? trying to bring my corvette in the expedition and it wont let.

[lone echo]

Options - Network - Multiplayer: Off
I had a HUGE lagfest at the first POI
Players and sentinels popping in and out everywhere

[naive crypt]

What are we supposed to do after taking apart the thing?

[solemn bane]

Just getting around to this, differences in the expedition config:

Old:

  "CreateContextSaveDataMask": "^DEFAULT",
  "SwitchContextSaveDataMask": "^DEFAULT",

New:

  "CreateContextSaveDataMask": "^SWARM",
  "SwitchContextSaveDataMask": "^SWARM",

Interesting. This was added to maintain your appearance when starting from the expedition terminal. First time it's not been ^DEFAULT since it was added.

New settings:

"AllowSaveContextCorvetteTransfer": false,: Blocking corvette transfers specifically
"NeverAllowCorvettePurchases": true,: Also corvette purchases

There's lots of other new stuff but it's all pretty obvious, given all the new things in this expedition.

[primal wagon]

This means you cannot get your corvette in the expedition?

[remote thunder]

then click on a free cargo slot and craft pilot signature - should already have pilot echo on you

[remote thunder]

correct, nor build one in exp22

[primal wagon]

Thanks for the input

[wintry void]

i dont have the recipe

[sour blade]

why lmao thats so odd

[cloud oriole]

i dont think so, i think they've tied alot of narrative/important stuff to the ship this time around, making it to where you need to stick to one ship

[cloud oriole]

i think they've tied alot of narrative/important stuff to the ship this time around, making it to where you need to stick to one ship

[remote thunder]

do phase 1 milestone 3

[smoky panther]

Only 3 phases this expedition?

[naive crypt]

How many parts do I need to pull at these drones?

[haughty flower]

constructing the prismatic core is a community goal or am i missing something?

[rapid flicker]

Well, you can claim your expedition ships from the anomaly

[naive crypt]

I pulled 3 plates and a core thing but it's not registering, do I need to do something else?

[lone echo]

It is
Gonna be a while

[haughty flower]

oh good to know, thanks

[remote thunder]

(i had multiplayer disabled) and only needed to pull 1 to get swarmers to spawn, killed those, and there was a marker on the crashed swarmer to interact with - i pulled the one in the back

[potent blade]

Same for me

[naive crypt]

Oh, lemme try reloading restore point then

I disabled my mp as soon as I landed on the planet

[lone echo]

I did the sabotage mission
Pulled off all the parts
There was the option to insert some crafting materials but the mission finished without doing that

[mossy breach]

Wait there's only three phases?

[wraith venture]

@remote thunder sorry to bug you but I'm curious, are we able to see how many players are currently in each faction in-game or online?

[remote thunder]

playing solo? report when you get a bit of spare time

[lone echo]

I switched multiplayer off partway through so that might have borked it

[wraith venture]

Interesting, this is what I found here so far: https://galacticatlas.nomanssky.com/poi/countermeasures
@fossil walrus have you seen this?

[late burrow]

ok, the disasembly of the swarmers is way to janky rn

[remote thunder]

1. you never bug me 2) not sure, but i dont think so? just checked galactic atlas and it just says percentage, going to double check in game

[dense olive]

so we have to do 40 missions but we can only do 3 every 4 hours?

[wraith venture]

thank you, Bkay!

[solemn bane]

Team Royal baby let's goooo

[lone echo]

You can see achieved points at the hub but i don't think it showed player numbers

[cloud oriole]

so we just gotta wait for hours between even trying to build the core?

[dense olive]

glad I created a new save for this so my regular doesn't get stuck in here when I just start playing a different game

[solemn bane]

I'd bet it's totally BS anyway. I assume they'll keep the numbers artifically close.

[lone echo]

I got put into team weaver

[wraith venture]

got ya, thank you

[summer pecan]

so how to get your main ship to the expedition? I've seen people on their badass ships already

[remote thunder]

yeah, i dont know if these "traveler fragments" are actual players

[naive crypt]

Thanks that worked

[smoky panther]

What do you mean? I thought you could switch back to the primary save whenever

[dense olive]

you go back to the terminal in the anomaly where you started the expedition from and you can pay nanites to pull your active ship in

[wraith venture]

there is a history... i hope they don't with this

[solemn bane]

I mean, how would you ever know

[summer pecan]

oh, how much? it is inactive and I can't see any numbers

[naive crypt]

God damnit

[dense olive]

been a while since I did it, I think 1400 nanites usually

[naive crypt]

This bug is back, every second warp resulting in a crash

[rare cliff]

has anyone else gotten stuck at this point?

[dense olive]

everyone is stuck at that point

[rare cliff]

???????????

[wraith venture]

whoa! that's an even bigger breakdown! so that's in the game? love that. thank you!!!

[cloud oriole]

dance party waiting for missions to refresh

[lone echo]

It's a community goal
You literally can't get further yet

[naive crypt]

Community needs to band together and complete the major order so that we can do that mission

[wraith venture]

you see the numbers here though? #nms-expedition message

[solar pawn]

wait wtf....so the "countermessures" expedition task basically locks everyone from advancing????

[wraith venture]

that's beyond some general percentage

[rare cliff]

bruh

[silent orbit]

-84 sentinels

[solemn bane]

Yeah, numbers literally cannot lie.

[late burrow]

what were they thinking making the purge sites universal

also GOOD LORD, removing parts from the crashed swarmers is PAIN

[naive crypt]

Okay, so Neutron Cannon is really bad against these new drones

and also, to everyone, TURN OFF MULTIPLAYER

Especially when going near objective sites

[languid mountain]

everything is, they are rather strong, neutron cannon is respectable though

[rare cliff]

so wtf am i supposed to do then

[loud surge]

Y?

[rare cliff]

im so lost

[solar pawn]

simply put...so it is IMPOSSIBLE to complete the whole expedition, because of that one task that requires global progress?

[rare cliff]

just wait?

[rustic pumice]

So now we have to wait 3 Hours :D

[signal heath]

about to start exp with my partner, do we want to be on same or diff teams to work together?

[languid mountain]

yeah ill be waiting till we get this done as a community tbh, but i am glad the royals are winning so far

[naive crypt]

You just return to your save and check back in once the community goal is met

Or do your part

[solar pawn]

but my part is only available once every 3 damn hours

[languid mountain]

yeah if you enjoy it then do your part but no reason to push yourself, you only need to do it once

[languid mountain]

that is really annoying tbh

[dusky pivot]

Can i bring my multitool and ship to this one?

[solar pawn]

i understand why they put a 2 months duration for the expedition

[languid mountain]

multitool yes, ship no

however you can redeem past expidition rewards

[wild viper]

Can I join someone’s group

[rustic pumice]

I wonder how the Royals can be "Winning" if everyone has the same mission or at least only 3 available misions at first

[naive crypt]

Oh wow I literally cannot progress, its just crashing the moment I warp to the atlas system

[wild viper]

I’m a new player so it’s like I don’t have much but I’m good sport

[naive crypt]

Let's see, third try's the charm

[solar pawn]

1. amount of players within the faction
2. how active the factioneers do their tasks

[lone echo]

They took out filler grinding missions and set a time gate instead
I'll keep an eye on the progress but i'm not invested enough to "do my part" tbh

[rare cliff]

weavers wya

[quaint light]

Hi, i have a couple of questions abt the Ex
Is it 1 "class" pero account or per save, and is this guardian games?

[lone echo]

<- This weaver is off until the milestone updates
Or a certain mod updates

[delicate elk]

Hai

[deft pasture]

I think a cutscene was supposed to happen but now im stuck in my ship

[naive crypt]

"Hive of glass draws near" Fkin ominous

[deft pasture]

Had to restart

[wary crow]

did you ever sort it out? i tried shooting the core for 0 dmg, then tried fighting the hive swarms, then the shield generator lookin things, not sure what to try

[rare cliff]

its up to us to win

[lone echo]

I won't lie, the || reset fakeout gave me leviathan flashbacks||
If they pulled that again i would've flipped

[plain flare]

Yeah I killed all the shield generators then I just got teleported away

[wary crow]

lol I must have just not killed enough of them, thanks!

[arctic epoch]

When I started the expedition, my PC crashed and when I restarted the game, It seems to have skipped the Personality Quiz. Said something about Sages though. Did I miss anything?

[vestal pebble]

Welp I'm a weaver 😔

[arctic epoch]

Also, is this dialog usually broken?

[naive crypt]

Accept the inevitable

[delicate elk]

Yes

[vestal pebble]

I suck bruh

[drowsy zenith]

are we able to reconstruct our multi tool and corvette for this expedition when we get back to the anomaly?

[vestal pebble]

Weavers are the least ones 😔

[quaint light]

Weaver gang rise up

[remote thunder]

it wasnt' broken for me, no. about the personality quizz - yeah, that's basically tying into the concept of traveler fragmentation but yet all working to the same goal

dont worry, that's not dependent on your choices, or at least not fully dependent on your choices

[naive crypt]

I think how it works is, since weavers has the least players, they are putting everyone in weavers to make the numbers equal

[remote thunder]

probably

it doesnt really matter

[arctic epoch]

Can I see my faction somewhere? just finished phase 1.

[naive crypt]

You unlocked flags and stuff

[light sonnet]

i tried to bet on this earlier and promptly got put in sage with the same answers people used to get weaver

[lone echo]

Your character is locked to the color of your faction

[chrome perch]

I wanted to be a weaver and I managed to be one

[remote thunder]

yeah @arctic epoch , what @lone echo said, also your ship

[eternal dagger]

add your blue square to your nickname

[rain laurel]

Does anyone know if you can actually bring stuff to the expedition this time?

[lone echo]

Can't even change accent colors

[remote thunder]

items and multitool, not ship

[hushed agate]

my xbox wont update to 6.40

[rain laurel]

I'm aware of the ship just curious because of last expedition

[arctic epoch]

found it, thanks. I seem to be a Sage.

[cloud oriole]

some fuckwit on PC encased the objective for one of the missions

[remote thunder]

not out on xbox yet

[rain laurel]

Report base turn multiplayer off

[hushed agate]

what?

[hushed agate]

u srious

[remote thunder]

yep

[cloud oriole]

yeah, i already did but it's still annoying

[turbid shoal]

Am I stupid or is the Countermeasures mission time-gated? I don't have an option to select another mission for 3 hours.

[rain laurel]

👍

[chrome perch]

Look in #nms-news-ticker

Xbox is always late.

[remote thunder]

correct

not stupid

[crude compass]

ok so am i stupid, i cant find frost crystals on the planet i need to make glass for the orb, what do i do?

[turbid shoal]

Rip. I'll wait the three hours then.

[lone echo]

Refine silicate from digging

Not sure why it doesn't show the easy recipe

[marsh glade]

What did u guys bring with u on the expedition?

[remote thunder]

the way i'll approach it is, i'll do my stuff once a day - if i happen to get more done over the course of a full day, nice, if not oh well, no harm done. and that's it.

[turbid shoal]

Any idea what the timer is each time? I was kinda hoping to crush this out in a few days lol

[safe cosmos]

Forgot that I hadn’t turned off MP so there’s no end to the sentinels and the fallen swarmer has too many people around it lol.

[chrome perch]

Good vibes

[lone echo]

Hmm, yeah maybe i'll do that too
Should be quicker than Helldivers daily objectives

[remote thunder]

check out this list for basics <#nms-expedition message> - wont be able to copy ship in on exp22

[short yoke]

I got Weaver, but I wanted Royalty!

HOW DO I ERASE AND TRY AGAIN!!!

[azure wraith]

What should I take for this expedition 🤔

[pearl eagle]

any reason why I cannot copy a ship from my main save to this expedition? I copied my multitool no problem

[bold atlas]

so... can you get all 3 of the flag sets in this expedition... or is your profile faction-locked?

[wary crow]

Am I supposed to die? I keep trying to kill the shield generators, but the atlas interface still gets destroyed

[pure spoke]

how am I meant to get star bramble without a hazmat gauntlet?

[remote thunder]

wont get a different result, people have tried

[remote thunder]

check out this list for basics <#nms-expedition message> - wont be able to copy ship in on exp22

[remote thunder]

by design

[delicate elk]

They give you the blueprint

[remote thunder]

complete and claim phase 1 milestone 1

prebuilt hazmat gauntlet

[chrome perch]

You should get the gauntlet from previous rewards

[short yoke]

FUCKK!!!

[pearl eagle]

I see many different ships, living and otherwise in the expedition. Is it a reward later?

[torpid oracle]

Lol, I get it
Hopefully you get more out of it than I did =\

[crystal mortar]

It seems like we can't. ||I was able to claim an old Expedition ship from the Quicksilver vendor though. ||

[pure spoke]

It got put into my ship...

THATS 1000 U away

[untold rain]

Is the fight with the glass hive where it destroys the atlas thing supposed to be winnable or no

[short yoke]

That's it, I'm JSON editing my save!@

[pure spoke]

PAIN

[light sonnet]

i tried making a backup of the save folder before even launching the game post update, no number of resets or different answers gives me anything but sage
no known method right now unfortunately

[cloud oriole]

no, they are rewards from old expiditions you can pull into the new one

[mental plover]

Alright chat its time for me to start the expedition, I pray my graphics card doesn't explode

[remote thunder]

oh yeah this!

[cloud oriole]

turn off multiplayer

[chrome perch]

Summon it. At that point your ship should be fixed

[mental plover]

nah fuck it we ball

[pure spoke]

thats the fun part... its not

[mental plover]

i got my lucky uma with me so my GPU will be spared from exploding

[cloud oriole]

trust me, some fuckwits have been creating bases and encasing objectives, the ball is not woth rn

[chrome perch]

Oh wait... I'm wrong 😔

[pure spoke]

On the road again...

[azure wraith]

🫡

[mental plover]

im doing this expedition fresh

no imported items

or ships

[chrome perch]

Always look at what you get from rewards, before moving on.

[untold rain]

Oh nvm reloaded and saw notification that its impossible

[bold atlas]

okay sooooo.... how do I get a royal and a weaver?

in the dialogue creation of course

I got sage, but I want decor maxx

[mental plover]

i got sage

[bold atlas]

same

green

[mental plover]

genuinely too lazy to like

redo it

[late burrow]

weaver...\

[remote thunder]

cant, that's it, you're sage

[lone echo]

Apparently the quiz means nothing and it's decided by balancing member numbers

[late burrow]

of course i got the one that is doing the worse

[bold atlas]

nonono I am trying to start a new expeition save for that

[untold crypt]

New expedition is pretty interesting

[bold atlas]

worked for the Atlantid helmets

should work for this

[mental plover]

do i need to relaunch my game when i turn MP off or are preloaded base markers just forever visible

[remote thunder]

i'm not even sage, and i'm helping them too lol

[crystal mortar]

What are the counters on the|| Prismatic Core swarm missions that say time remaining until next activity. We can only do one of each mission every three hours||?

[late burrow]

someone named a planet "Go Away"

[granite spindle]

Are there no starbulbs on the starter planet?

[floral onyx]

I just saw that. Not very friendly.

[floral onyx]

There are, but you'll have to hike for them

[mental plover]

got my pet Oguri Cap, got my entirely green fit

time to eat the swarm and win for Team Sage

[bold atlas]

happens to be the planet where I got a sabotage mission and I parked there to figure out how to get the rest of the phase 1 rewards

[floral onyx]

Also, silicate powder refines into glass

[remote thunder]

there are - head west or east, use visor, look for buildings/star bramble icons, if 1000u away from ship but found nothing, back track and go in a diff direction - if you find a building first, head north or south till you see star bramble

[crystal mortar]

I gave up after an hour of looking and bought from a pilot at a trade outpost

[granite spindle]

Welp. I'll probably start that tomorrow then.

[inner wing]

Do we just keep doing the missions as they come up? I've done like 6 already but now I have a 6 hour cool down and it's still saying 0% contribution

[floral onyx]

It's going to take the entire time, I belive

[dapper sparrow]

How do I disable other people's bases??? They're actively preventing me from completing the expedition since I can't place down refiners anywhere.

[inner wing]

Turn off multiplayer

[worldly zenith]

I can't seem to get any parts from the wreck, too many players around it, nothing is re-spawning but the corrupted sentinels

[dapper sparrow]

tried that. not working

[mental plover]

my MP is turned off but bases arent deloading, do i need to reload save

[patent panther]

I have made it out phase 1

[worldly zenith]

Good luck at the first waypoint of Phase 2

[inner wing]

Phase 3 is gonna take 55 days?

[remote thunder]

would have to go completely offline, and save+restart game completely in a system with no other player bases to clear cached bases. that said, on foot quick menu/scroll right/report <other player base> to hide them from you

[patent panther]

[dapper sparrow]

they really should have thought this through and given people portable refiners, the developers should have assumed players would start griefing.

[scenic iron]

Idk if I should join the Sages or the Weavers

Also hi! ✨️

[dapper sparrow]

I'm 1000 units out from my ship at this point

[mental plover]

thats not ideal when the spawn itself is littered with bases, least where I am

guess i gotta cope atp and pray for the best

[lone echo]

Sadly you don't really get a choice

[scenic iron]

As soon I return home this Friday, this weekend gonna start the expedition

[inner wing]

Thankfully I was on when the expo released, and also, people are sabatoging missions, shooting down players during their missions and stuff, so I turned pvp off because it's annoying

[remote thunder]

it is not completely clear how the choice is actually made, but it's most certainly not solely influenced by your choices

[tepid grove]

So our choices don't matter?

[remote thunder]

people have made new saves and went with different options and still got the same team

[tepid grove]

:(
Ill go with the choices someone gave me that gave them weaver
Maybe once you are given a team you're stuck with em no matter what

[scenic iron]

Interesting, we'll I'll see when I play the expedition soon, plus I wanna get this awesome prizes and wanna see this new stuff happening, looks like it much insanely crazy intense than the Sentinels I assuming

[light sonnet]

people are confirmed to have gotten all three teams from the exact same answers

[floral onyx]

The expedition is a neat story, but getting through everything up to the community milestone part was pretty frustrating.

[remote thunder]

yeah, what i'll usually do is start running circles around it, like 1000u, 2000u circle, hopefully i'll get a spot that's not taken already and able to drop refiner

[marsh glade]

can you share?
I wanna get weaver as well🥲

[patent panther]

Positron Ejector is the best weapon for starships against swarms ive found

[remote thunder]

if i start feeling i'm wasting a lot of time, i just go fully offline

[remote thunder]

gtk, i wondered if this would be good, i just got it earlier and will be giving it a try

[scenic iron]

Plus, I have my trust all powerful Atlas Staff all glory I can deal with any crazy enemies

[tepid grove]

Choices don't matter
I got royal.

[patent panther]

maybe its cause i restarted and brought in better requipment from my sentinnel ship but it works wonders

[tepid grove]

I wanted weaver

[idle egret]

i have to wait 2 hours before i can do more missions!?! this event will take a while

[scenic iron]

So it all depends they'll give me the team, I wonder

[tepid grove]

As a Hollow Knight fan I am deeply offended I cannot be a weaver
(I'm kidding, I don't really care)

[scenic iron]

I hope it's either the Sages or the Weavers

[lone echo]

I assume it depends on what team has the least memenbers at that moment

[white grove]

Gostren system - find debris, but it leads to nothing, anyone know more?

[scenic iron]

Also, what is the point having teams on the new update?

[tepid grove]

Oh well

[idle egret]

as weaver i also dont really care other than the fact that us weavers are 3rd place

[scenic iron]

I wonder it is a team competition whoever get the high contribution or tasks get the well deserve prize

[light sonnet]

i tried when weavers had significantly less and still got sage

[tepid grove]

So then
It should've put me on WEAVERS

[dapper sparrow]

i've restarted the game completely with multiplayer off and I still can't build

[pure spoke]

they already said what the prize was

[remote thunder]

no, the only thing the team that wins gets is like a celebration trophy in the anomaly

[lone echo]

It's probably still chance based, just tweaked odds i reckon

[pale notch]

I left the expedition and my screen went black. After walking through darkness in the anomaly I rejoined the expedition to see if it would fix things and nothing. Is my game just cursed now or?

[light sonnet]

probably, just a bit disappointed since i was hoping for weavers
thought i had a solid chance going when weavers was lowest and using answers others used to get weavers

[dapper sparrow]

so far this expedition has been buggy and frustrating instead of fun and exciting. bad game design

[mental plover]

Evil Build a Bear...

[remote thunder]

only going fully offline - like disconnected from internet or offline on steam will prevent the game from downloading uploaded player bases

[lone echo]

The ominous thingamabob

[light sonnet]

either way i can confirm the team decision is not stored in your save folder, i made a backup before doing the quiz the first time and still get sage every time

[remote thunder]

try to disable multiplayer, then wait a minute or two after walking around, then quit game completely, relaunch and reload

[mental plover]

I might just genuinely set up a firewall rule completely blocking NMS connections

just so i dont need to like

pull my ethernet out

[remote thunder]

or that

if on steam, going offline there also works

[solemn bane]

Deny me a bolt caster? I'll just clear your idiot corrupted sentinels with my mining laser.

[mental plover]

is there a GOG setting for allat

[solemn bane]

Whoops, didn't mean to reply, lol

[mental plover]

or is it just i need to actually

block/cut connection

[pale notch]

I'll try. I've already restarted my game before I took that pic so ig I'll find out

[glacial ember]

Okay, seriously. Who the fuck did us xbox players piss off? No expedition?

[atomic estuary]

Calm down, it will roll out

Eventually

[mental plover]

MS likely wont give the update until next week going off previous updates but im hopeful it'll be out by friday

-# i love my misplaced optimism

Expedition is up for 2 months anyways

so genuinely little time lost

[solemn bane]

Just feel lucky you're not on Switch

[patent panther]

This is fucking hell, I cant figure out my obj at this swarm wreckage

[naive prism]

something similar here-- it sent me to this marker, and now it's saying my objective is in another system WHILE i'm looking at the marker...

[glacial ember]

I just spent 10 hours doing 12 hours worth of bullshit tasks all day for my asshole NCOs so I wouldn't be stuck at command so I could be here on the game with you guys.

[lone echo]

Pull it apart with the grav-tool

[remote thunder]

hmm - interesting. i shall go buy some then, since i dont have the bp 😄

[idle egret]

you can get the bp at the anomaly with the nanites you got from a previous objective

[lone echo]

Oh yeah that's what i meant before
The mission completed for me with 2/3 of those slots

[remote thunder]

yeah i know 🙂

[dusky fiber]

How’s the expedition?! I’ve been sorting Lego’s instead of playing. What’s it like so far?

[pale notch]

I'm good now idk if turning off multiplayer worked, but it did I appreciate you! 💯

[naive prism]

@remote thunder any thoughts on this?

[marsh glade]

Is this expedition meant to be played solo or are u guys in a group with more people?
I wanna know if i can play it with my friends

[remote thunder]

i've been enjoying this very much, i'd certainly recommend playing it eventually

[mental plover]

Alright so

[dusky fiber]

If I have time this weekend I’ll bash it out then.

[remote thunder]

mission from prismatic core?

[mental plover]

i've set up an inbound/outbound Windows Defender block rule

for NMS

lets see if this works

[naive prism]

yeah

it warped me into a system, then I had to jump twice to make it to the marked system/planet, and from there on it keeps telling me to go to another system

[plain flare]

Is anyone else seeing 0% on prismatic core progress?

[remote thunder]

looks bugged yeah, i just did a restore one actually and it was ok, but yeah this definitely looks to be bugged

[white grove]

@naive prism I was there, and nothing.

[mental plover]

It did not work unless its caching bases on this planet that im on rn (spawn world)

[safe cosmos]

The mcD’s in the world of glass lmao

[mental plover]

unfortunately till i have my ship unlocked i have no way to force a cache clear

[severe tangle]

are you able to copy your ship and multitool in this expedition?

[remote thunder]

you may just have to keep moving then i'm afraid

[remote thunder]

tool yes, ship no

[mental plover]

its half working i should say

its loaded 3 or so bases instead of like

20

so maybe its bases i've pre loaded before

[remote thunder]

discoveries menu, lower left - is the connection to ODS down? then yeah, cached bases

[mental plover]

yea its down

[remote thunder]

this should make finding an area that doesnt have any, that your save never got to download before basically, easier

or at least a little easier

[patent panther]

hypothetically wouldnt a save editor give you the ship you want or would it bug out the expedition?

[remote thunder]

see, here's the problem with some people - i was just here a couple minutes ago, there was nothing here -- but at least i can delete it

[mental plover]

for those curious on how to force offline if not on steam and dont wanna unplug your ethernet

Windows Firewall > Advanced Settings

Inbound rule > new rule
Application > Path to your NMS Install file .exe (example: D:\No Man's Sky\Binaries\NMS.exe)
Block Connection

Repeat for Outbound rule

[cinder acorn]

so im doing the purge: extermination and it says one more swarmer is remaining but theres none around so what the hell do i do now

[deft pasture]

Anyone else getting huge lag spikes and performance drops at crash sites

[patent panther]

prob multiplayer shenanigans

[chilly latch]

The crash site I'm in has a whole fuckin HORDE of Corrupt Sentinels and burds

[remote thunder]

disable mp

[deft pasture]

Same dude

[patent panther]

mp bugging it out

[floral onyx]

I had to go to SP

[atomic estuary]

Good job, Weavers. Went from 3rd to 2nd place. Lock in and keep going

[patent panther]

anyone elses game just freeze every now and then or no

[fluid vault]

so hey how am I supposed to get silicate powder? the expedition didn't start me with a terrain manipulator 🤔

[mental plover]

you have one?

[patent panther]

its supposed to?

[fluid vault]

WAIT I'm blind and stupid never mind

[mental plover]

yea lmao

[patent panther]

my game stay crashing every like 5 mins

[mental plover]

its right next to the visor

[pure spoke]

how do I see the status of each team?

[remote thunder]

interact with prismatic core in the nexus or select countermeasures milestone and check mission Log

[patent panther]

yall i fucked up, the Atlas Interface got destroyed
did i major mess up the expedition or nah

[mental plover]

set up camp 1000u from my ship just so I can smelt shit lmao

gotta love cached bases being right next to my ship

[remote thunder]

got devoured? happens, same here

nah, you're fine

[patent panther]

yeah so, it fired Gods Wrath at the Atlas while I was getting swarmed and smothered

[remote thunder]

you bet, i was powerless too

[patent panther]

lowk cant even see whats happening

my game froze again

[remote thunder]

keep mp disabled if you still have it enabled, seems to help

[mental plover]

is it bad im using this exped to stress test my new GPU lmao

[wary crow]

The first 2 attempts I did, I did not get "devoured" or "escaped world of glass" after getting teleported, luckily restore point was still up.

[patent panther]

nah itll just randomly freeze and crash sometimes
totally not cause im using a sentinnel ship

[stark creek]

How are we getting silver to make the weaver soul for the expedition? Since it's needed to fix the launch thrusters, I don't know how to get it on the planet
Silly question sorry

[mental plover]

Silver will be in one of the deposits..somewhere

i think

[patent panther]

so its supposed to start me back over on a cold planet

[mental plover]

its one of the planetary resources

[vital aspen]

Silver can be found in the stalagmites in caves

[deft lichen]

is anyone else having a problem where you're trying to do a mission for the exp but it says to land somewhere within a system and the system it guides you to is NOT the one listed and the planet it wants you to land on is NOT in that system??

[stark creek]

Okay thank you, appreciated
This is my first expedition 🫡
Never had online play until now

[remote thunder]

you're fine, dont worry, keep going as is

[stark creek]

Thanks!

[mental plover]

keep MP off or set up a firewall rule to block connections, from what i hear theres a ton of griefers fucking up everything

[cinder acorn]

this whole wreckage is blocked off are ppl serious with this? how do i report bases again?

[stark creek]

I'm on ps5 but thank you

[remote thunder]

on foot quick menu, scroll right, report base

[stark creek]

I have pvp off in settings though

[cinder acorn]

thanks

[mental plover]

can you NOT localized gravity inversion...

i just wanna live in peace

[pure spoke]

HMMMMM

[wet jay]

||how to deal eith the hive of glass?i feel like they deal too much damage to the atlas interface? (do i have to do it online, if so, how? given that the battle starts as soon as i exit the atlas interface?)||

[topaz shell]

i almost made a joke which probably would have gotten me muted 😭

[chrome orchid]

How do I get glass? I can't build a portable refiner. I don't have blueprints for the base computer.

[clear valley]

SPOLERS FOR EXPEDITION

WHAT?????
||So I think the Atlas is an organic machine now. Which means its more like we're inside of a dream than a simulation. I'm sorry but did Michael Kirkbride write this expedition's story? x3 And how close to being destroyed do you guys think the Atlas is at this point?||

[deft lichen]

you dont need a base computer to make a portable refiner

[mental plover]

you can build portable refiner without base computer

[cinder minnow]

Found an S-Class sentinel ship during the expedition omg

[patent panther]

nah thats js me flyin around

[chrome orchid]

No matter where I walk, I cannot build one

[deft lichen]

just keep walking

[mental plover]

turn MP off, its other peeps bases

[deft lichen]

you're in a cached base or something similar

[clear valley]

Find a spot thats not claimed by a base and refine silicate powder. Don't need to put down your own base. Walk like, super far away and pull it out once in a while

[stark creek]

If you go to where your ship is landed it should be a neutral space to build

[patent panther]

ok i srs cant go more than 10 mins without crashing

[cinder minnow]

MP being enabled or not isn't a factor for the game downloading uploaded bases, it'll still download them when MP is disabled

[chrome orchid]

I KNOW HOW to build one. Maybe I will spend 20 minutes walking out of the plethora of bases.

[mental plover]

oh yea I did kinda just force block connections

[chrome orchid]

Thanks, I'll try that.

[mental plover]

hello VRAM crash

[wary crow]

The real boss battle on the expedition...

[patent panther]

how bro i have like 16gb

[mental plover]

16 gig...of VRAM

on your GPU

[patent panther]

idk

shit

[mental plover]

shit do they even make them that high

[clear valley]

What GPU do you have?

[patent panther]

4070ti

[clear valley]

Update your drivers

[patent panther]

i updated em last night

[clear valley]

Ahhhh, roll back to the previous version

[remote thunder]

bit odd that my backpacks are all unlocked

[pure spoke]

when do I seek the atlas can I go to any atlas station?

[half mulch]

where star bulb

[clear valley]

Current ones might be causing issues

[clear valley]

Far. Don't give up.

[mental plover]

I remember VRAM crashes happening if i had like discord overlay

[half mulch]

in any direction?

[mental plover]

or OBS

[stark creek]

Big viney plants called star bramble, use scanner and look for plant icons

[mental plover]

in the background

NMS doesnt sit nice with like OBS running

[ebon tiger]

Hii anyone know if i can copy my main ship from the Game to the expedition? Its not letting me

[clear valley]

Yeah, took me 5-10 minutes to find em, put on a YT vid and you'll make it 👍

[deft lichen]

you gotta have the nanites to dupe it in your expedition save

[patent panther]

no but ive seen people use save editors to import

[half mulch]

man

[safe cosmos]

Nope, just your multi tool

[clear valley]

Doing a melee then jumping and flying helps a ton. Speeds you up in the air

[remote thunder]

i went to the marked one,i even teleported back to starter system because it was closer and it wouldnt require me to do multiple warps. not sure what will happen

[mental plover]

finally I can play the game

[clear valley]

Ah yes, I forgot how it felt the first time I played...

[gray turret]

is anyone else having issues with the A shadow above milestone? I tried turning mp off and on and rejoining several times but no dice and it is no where to be seen in my system

[mental plover]

nah it was genuinely these fuckass cached bases making me go like 2000u from my ship just to refine LOL

[remote thunder]

another player earlier bumped into the same issue - sounds like game spawns it at first, but either players go off do something else, or it just despawns when it shouldnt yet. the other player ended up starting a new save actually.

[clear valley]

Damn I got super lucky I found a spot nearby x3
But yeah enjoy the story of this expedition, I'm like hella invested

[mental plover]

MIGHT have spoke too soon about that part

i forgot i need to like

fix this

[gray turret]

ok I'll try this and come back and let y'all know how it goes

[remote thunder]

just keep following milestones

[solemn bane]

Did you get a different ship?

[clear valley]

MARK THE SPOT WHERE YOU CAN REFINE

[half mulch]

ong

[mental plover]

I CANT I GENUINELY PICKED UP MY REFINER

TIME FOR ANOTHER 2000U WALK

🔥

[clear valley]

o7

[stark creek]

I've just been going to where my ship is crashed, it seems to be a neutral space from bases

Good luck though soldier

[remote thunder]

oh shoot, you think that's related?

[mental plover]

oh shit real?

[remote thunder]

didnt even cross my mind

[stark creek]

I haven't moved it yet

[knotty marsh]

This expedition sounds absolutely fantastic, intalling the game right now 🙂

[solemn bane]

100% was for me. I got a sentinel ship and had to switch back to see it. Tested multiple times.

[mental plover]

wait this has to be bait

[stark creek]

Bait?

[remote thunder]

good to know ty!

[stark creek]

Oh you think I'm gonna grief, no no haha

[half mulch]

im 10mins away from my ship how far do I need to go for star bulbs

[stark creek]

I would never

[mental plover]

evil build a bear

[undone igloo]

So I see that with part of the expedition, I have to wait for new missions to continue it.

[mental plover]

well you were right

[gray turret]

I did not I stayed in the starter one

[mental plover]

I DONT NEED TO WALK 2000U

new thing learned too

[remote thunder]

oh dang, i was really hopeful

[gray turret]

might be a seperate bug though

[remote thunder]

maybe

[stark creek]

My mic won't work 😭 I'm trying to help people with questions but Playstation say no

[half mulch]

can I do somehtign with this

[remote thunder]

@gray turret so bsically you never saw this right?

[wet jay]

is it possible to defend the atlas interface in Singleplayer?

or am i stuck

[gray turret]

nope never saw it and when I hit the map it kept telling me to go 2 systems over

[safe cosmos]

I wonder if you can save edit in a corvette lol

[stark creek]

Is royal the most populated team? I've seen the most of them so far

[eternal zodiac]

Anyone else spawning on a planet with no frost crystals? Had to restart cuz of that and I think this planet is the same

[mental plover]

Alright time to fix this tub and get the fuck outa here

[mental plover]

40 silicate powder = 1 glass

in a refiner

[wet jay]

use silicon powder in the refiner for glass

[remote thunder]

oh hmm... i saw someone else with the same exact kind of message, but for a completely different mission, but also in exp22

[eternal zodiac]

Awesome, thmx, haven't played 4 so long lol

[stark creek]

How do you make the pilot signature? I must be missing something

[undone igloo]

Make each of the fragments

[stark creek]

I got those

[undone igloo]

Now get in your ship

[spare rapids]

Then hop in your ship

[gray turret]

yeah I'm going to try a new game if not I'm going to make a bug report

[stark creek]

Oh yeah I guess that makes sense 😔

Thanks

[mental plover]

bind the echoes by getting in your ship that gives you pilot echo
pilot echo + 32 Mordite = 1 signature

[undone igloo]

I have to apparently wait for new missions from the core to advance my expedition I guess

[stark creek]

Noo mordite I don't wanna hurt the lil duuudes

[mental plover]

me out here massacaring the local populace

[stark creek]

Nooo

The one species is so cute

I LOOKED ALL OVER FOR A CAVE AND THERE'S ONE RIGHT NEXT TO MY SHIP

[woeful osprey]

i rlly hate when ppl put bases on the mission locations.

[solemn bane]

They give you food, that's a hint you can feed them and refine their poop into mordite. I think.

[undone igloo]

I saw someone renamed one of the planets I had to go to for the expedition, Go Away.

[stark creek]

I appreciate it but I've already become a poacher 🫡

I'll keep that in mind though thanks

[undone igloo]

And when it popped me in a different planet (after confronting the Hive the first time) I saw someone built a McDonald's by a portal xD

[mental plover]

alright NOW I CAN PLAY THE GAME

[remote thunder]

yeah, that's the same for us all

[undone igloo]

I had to laugh when I saw it xD

[remote thunder]

ahuh 😄

[mental plover]

why is the evil build a bear lowk tryna beef with me

:(

[remote thunder]

could have been bk though 😛

no, my alias doesnt come from that

😄

[lofty cape]

Question, is phase 3 of 3 currently how far we can go?

[remote thunder]

yep

phase 3 milestone 3

[mental plover]

game is so kind giving me a pre-packaged infra knife

[chrome orchid]

Now to find star bramble sigh

[lofty cape]

I’m craving the new armour set

[mental plover]

NOW TO BEEF

OGURI CAP - CONSUMER OF THE SWARM
VS
EVIL BUILD A BEAR

[stark creek]

Only reason I'm playing the expedition to be honest haha

Ship repaired! I'M FREE

[steady idol]

Is the blue tint normalll

[lofty cape]

It has a flair to it that’s very enticing

Go team weaver🕺🏼

[loud surge]

reminder to get nanite clusters for hyperdrive upgrades...

So many jumps...

[languid spoke]

this is one buggy expedition... again

[solemn bane]

I just got a sentinel ship since they started me on a Dissonant planet

[loud surge]

I lowk forgot i can do that

I need to rebind my flight controls when I get home

[mental plover]

i hate flying on M&KB I wish i had a HOTAS or my controller rn

[loud surge]

Have to fly at 0u/s cuz my binds on controller make combat a pain in the ass

Swarms are alright to fight w/ them considering rocket launchers do hella damage

[white grove]

Planet Substance, what the h@ll am i supposed to find there? There is nothing.

[safe cosmos]

Accidentally spent my storage augmentations on inventory instead of tech slots lol

[loud surge]

I did that too, which was silly

I think we're supposed to split 3 inv and 2 tech

Cuz you start with 3 empty inv and 2 empty tech

[mental plover]

The swarms are described as a looming shadow...

Techno-Tyranids from 40k

[unkempt rover]

is it just me or are the crashed swarmer bits unable to be held by the grav coil

[loud surge]

You need to angle yourself properly

It can get finnicky

[mental plover]

Phase 1 done chat, onto phase 2

[unkempt rover]

well i can spam the trigger and its fine but it wont let me hold them up

[loud surge]

Disabling multiplayer has helped some people with the swarmer bits

[loud surge]

Hold the button to pick up

[atomic estuary]

I have something to say to all my fellow Weavers. Great job getting us to the 1st place and keep going so it stays that way. Mission refresh in a bit over an hour

[loud surge]

If I controller; r1

[unkempt rover]

thats melee

[lofty cape]

Another question, what’s the timeline for when we’ll be able to get to phase 5; Interface

[loud surge]

Jetpack reward phase woohoo

[unkempt rover]

it was alt fire.. awugh i forgorr

[loud surge]

Lol it happens

The game gave me a hint cuz i forgot the button too

[naive prism]

so now we're basically gated for the next 7.5 weeks before we can complete the expedition?

[loud surge]

They'll artificially increase the #

[remote thunder]

go weavers!!

[somber badge]

How do i get the pilot signature?

[cinder crown]

Hey guys
how to complete stage 2 part 2?
game just lagging

[remote thunder]

keep progressing milestones in order

get pilot echo after binding echoes to the ship

[chilly latch]

Decided to change my starter ship with the Boundary Herald

[loud surge]

That's a lot of nanite clusters

How'd you get so much so fast?

[unkempt rover]

what i would give to have a ship designed like these swarmers

[somber badge]

I cant continue cus materials i need to leave dont spawn on this planet

[remote thunder]

sorry i missed this - i think it should be possible, but i've already seen another player saying that using a non-starter ship bugged a milestone for them

[steady idol]

For the restore stuff what symbol am I looking for

[remote thunder]

which materials? silver spawns as mineral deposits on starter planet, glass you can get from refining silicate powder

[loud surge]

Starry bulbs appear via visor or if.you set up the auto locate, silver comes from depots and chromatic comes from some rocks and copper

[steady idol]

Never mind xD game caught up

[loud surge]

As bk said, refine silicate for glass

[somber badge]

Didnt realize i can get glass from silicate thank you

[stark creek]

Okay I'm done phase 1
Thanks for all the help everyone ✨

[remote thunder]

star bramble image, drops star bulb, needs hazmat gauntlet (p1m1)

[mental plover]

i love starting a new save where i have a hyperdrive range of "Probably just down the road"

inching my way to the crash site

[mental plover]

one system at a time

[loud surge]

Exactly, it takes sooo long

[lofty cape]

While we wait here’s my chonk

[loud surge]

Radiant shards grant 50 nanites 😛

[cinder acorn]

how long do yall think it will take to finish the prismatic core lol

[chrome orchid]

I have a lot of hours playing NMS. I cannot seem to locate any of these on the starter planet.

[loud surge]

Month+

[mental plover]

star bulbs when needed will like, pull up on direction finder

if you have recipie pinned

[lofty cape]

A month for that sweet sweet armour set, my heart, my soul

[cinder acorn]

welp ill set a reminder to check up in a month then lol

[steady idol]

I mean are these community challenges across all games not just fixed anyway

[remote thunder]

there are - head west or east, use visor, look for buildings/star bramble icons, if 1000u away from ship but found nothing, back track and go in a diff direction - if you find a building first, head north or south till you see star bramble. native biome plants spawn on or near laylines

[safe cosmos]

5/8 components but there’s an invisible marker in the middle??

[mental plover]

MY GAME DIED

[stark creek]

How do we get our ships from our primary save?

[mental plover]

oh idk what this error code is

this is a new one

[chilly latch]

I love when everyone places bases all around the planet so it's harder for people to actually refine stuff

[mental plover]

theres a zone around your starship

it takes priority over claims

[remote thunder]

yeah, it's a little like "where is the thing" - just aim the grav coil at it and keep an eye when it creates that glow on the piece even if you dont see the piece

[mental plover]

letting you place refiner

[chrome orchid]

I'll keep looking thanks.

[stark creek]

I'm glad I was right about this since I was telling others 😅

[mental plover]

Yea i've sunk like

nearly 800 hours into this

[mental plover]

and its the first i've learned of it

[lofty cape]

I had that issue with the star bramble, turned off multiplayer because of it and my frame rates improved all of a sudden, spent another few minutes running off to find a place I can actually use my refiner

[patent panther]

Sages are illuminate??

[safe cosmos]

Hmmm

[patent panther]

ok seriously green team gotta pull through we are in third

[hollow bolt]

well so far for starting the expedition, can't even open my portable refiner 🙁

[stark creek]

I played like 150 back when it came out in 2016, played 66 in 2020, and now I'm back 🫡

[lofty cape]

Blue>

[remote thunder]

like others said, try deploying it when near your ship

[hollow bolt]

oh I did... won't open and can't pick it up

[lusty slate]

Switch 1/2 and Xbox don't have the update yet, I'm sure the team ranking will alter when they do.

[tropic mason]

Disable multiplayer

[stark creek]

Yeah I think they get in June?

[remote thunder]

if you already disabled multiplayer, any bases to report via on foot quick menu/scroll right?

[dusk swift]

How do you dissemble the fallen swarmer. I keep trying and nothing happens

[lusty slate]

Not entirely unlikely for Switch lol

[hollow bolt]

hadn't disabled multiplayer yet, will do

[eternal dagger]

The front lens also needs to be removed

[stark creek]

I can't imagine how this runs on a switch 1

[steady idol]

Ah I see so you can't get the armour and finish this at all today can you

[dusk swift]

What you mean front lens

[safe cosmos]

I had to report a base trying to grief

[dusk swift]

Enlighten me

[lusty slate]

You'd be surprised

[craggy sun]

You might’ve missed a wing if it’s clipping into the terrain

[tropic mason]

When you have the gravity gun equipped, move around and press L1/ special interact key when you can see.the red mark show up

[smoky panther]

Where can I damage the big ass ship?

[lusty slate]

I'm Switch 1 and I have an 840hr+ save.

[patent panther]

are we only able to get the direwasp jetpack as of now?

[stark creek]

Oh good!

I'm trying to convince my husband to join me on the game but he's too busy being a nerd
Imagine playing a game with navy ships instead of space ships

[tropic mason]

Armour requires expedition completion.

[remote thunder]

at the front of it, this:

[chrome orchid]

I did that for 22 years, lol.

[unkempt rover]

okay! im back! :D uh so is anyone else having their inventory menu turn into discord light mode?
