nms-expedition

[stark creek]

You can buy new ships in the expedition but uncertain if they change color

I haven't bought one

Am broke

[nimble marlin]

I don't think they do.

[loud surge]

Radiant pillar for nanite clusters

[potent blade]

My sentinel hasnt changed and I sold my starter ship, just farming sentinels for money now

[loud surge]

50 nanites per shard

[stark creek]

I still don't know how do get sentinel ships

I'll figure it out eventually

[loud surge]

Use them for ship, multitool and exosuit upgrades

[nimble marlin]

One of the expedition rewards is also 10k nanites.

[loud surge]

Autophage camp, defeat t5 sentinel in space, random chsnce

[stark creek]

Ahh okay

[full beacon]

I figured it out and immediately decided it wasn’t worth the headache but they’re great money

[stark creek]

I gotta do the autophage

[loud surge]

Oh fr? I must've missed it

[potent blade]

Go to dissonant world, destroy the drillers until you get echo locator, use echo locator to find camp, use camp to find ship

[stark creek]

That means nothing to me at the moment but thank you😅

[loud surge]

I mined 4 shards before leaving the first planet and used the nanotes to upgrade hyperdrive so it doesn't take a billion jumps to the Phase 2 site

[stark creek]

I haven't played story and stuff since 2016

[potent blade]

I put a base at all the ones I go to with a screen shot of the camp

[full beacon]

I’m still on the fence about spending them or saving them

[stark creek]

I've yet to find a dissonant world

[nimble marlin]

Yeah, I did a quick discovery grind because I wasn't hopping to the Atlas 100ly at a time and then they bombarded me, lol

[full beacon]

You start on a dissonant world

I think

[stark creek]

You do?

[loud surge]

Oh did any of the rocks on the first planet have the name "rockk"

[stark creek]

Well I didn't make a base there so it's gone

[potent blade]

Just hover over the star until you find one that says dissonant, then warp and scan the planets until you find the dissonant one

[full beacon]

The worlds with the fuchsia shards?

[nimble marlin]

No, I went to a new system with fresh discoveries

[full beacon]

They’re everywhere, you’ll find one

[plucky island]

Seidi is a shit hole never go there

[stark creek]

OH you meant the expedition

Okay I've seen a few dissonant worlds

[full beacon]

Yes, they’re everywhere in the main save too, tbf

[stark creek]

I meant I hadn't found any in my regular save

[frozen laurel]

I love your expedition tool! I only have a few more to do now.

[potent blade]

Sentinel ships are ~15 mil and up depending on class and stuff. Super quick money and theyre good ships

[stark creek]

I've been sitting in this outlaw station for like an hour with no new ships coming in

I give up for now

[solar summit]

i hope the locations return to the same spot after a few rotations

because i gotta go to sleep

and my cantina got nobody

big sad

gn yall

[full beacon]

night all

[potent blade]

I saw it, but thought it was a troll base

[dire osprey]

just open the galactic map and look around, i found so much when i start looking fr

just get the indium thing for ur ship and ull be good to go

[potent blade]

I didnt go there tbf, just saw the base on the edge of the planet when I was flying to it

[stark creek]

One been kinda slow in my save

[solar summit]

Dang

[solar summit]

It wasn’t a troll base

Been working on advertising it

I just got the ability to make food

So now I can serve my customers

When I get any

[lavish stream]

how hard is it solo

[nimble marlin]

Not hard at all

[solemn bane]

Probably harder to do with other people, because nms multiplayer code sucks so bad, lol.

[potent blade]

Well, I wish I would have known, I would have come by

[solar summit]

Eh I’ll survive

I’ll be on tommorow

I just hope the location is used again

[warm token]

Yeah I think if you want to have an immersive experience don't do mp it was a total mess for me

[lavish stream]

someone built a goddamn base right on top of the wreck

[potent blade]

ass hats

[warm token]

Dropped settings down to standard and still major fps drop from everyone fighting the spawn and corrupted sentinels

[lavish stream]

how do I get rid of it

like report it so it goes away

[warm token]

Report the base from quick menu

It disappears for you

And when enough people report the base gets removed for all

[solemn bane]

So yeah, not only do you have to be online for the entirety of Phase 3, all the milestones past the first three require the community goal to be met, which means I would have to replace every single milestone in phase 3. Tempted to just not even put this one on my site 🙁

[lavish stream]

tyty

[warm token]

I like this expedition isn't something you can bang out in a single day right at release

I can just do the missions then switch back to my main save for other stuff, I'm glad this feature exists

[dim barn]

^^^^

[warm token]

And they didn't add stupid filler missions it's just 3 phases

No scanning 10 plants

[cyan matrix]

Since we cant copy ships and its my 1st expedition do I just switch all my technology over instead

[warm token]

You can't copy ships?

I thought you just can't copy corvettes

[cyan matrix]

Well corvette let me be specific

[dim barn]

They give you a lot of upgrades along the way, and you can still redeem past expedition reward ships

[warm token]

Ah okay

[solemn bane]

They are both explicitely blocked in the expedition config.

[torpid oracle]

Massive bummer 🙁

[warm token]

Yeah get one of the older reward ships it's greatly helpful

[nimble marlin]

Honestly? Don't even bother bringing anything. Rewards hand you plenty.

[cyan matrix]

Alr ty

[warm token]

I got the boundary herald, I never used it in my main save

Funny ship

[dreamy bolt]

So... there's no Swarm out in the base game too? ._.

[dim barn]

Yeah, about the only big extras I can recommend, is your freighter warp drive and teleporter thing, and maybe 50-100m of cash items

[tranquil pewter]

I got the wraith cause its the only blue expedition ship

[dim barn]

And materials to make storages on your freighter, so you at least dont need to ever worry about inventory

[warm token]

Just the wreckage, for now
They will most likely add the rest of it in a later update

They've done it before with previous expedition only events

[dreamy bolt]

Ahhh, so you can still run into them on-planet lol

[warm token]

Yeah dissonant planets iirc

[dreamy bolt]

As if the Purple Rock planets needed any more excitement xD

[warm token]

Not sure what the rewards are for doing those

[solemn bane]

Since I typed this out elsewhere, I'll put it here for the heck of it:

If you want to transfer your ships, and you're on PC (or similar), you can open SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON and change "AllowSaveContextShipTransfer":false to "AllowSaveContextShipTransfer":true, go offline, load the game, transfer your ship and save. You can close the game and go back online afterwards if you want. It'll work on other non-console systems, the location is just different.

Oh and if you want your Corvette you can change "AllowSaveContextCorvetteTransfer":false to "AllowSaveContextCorvetteTransfer":true Edit: Unfortunately Corvette transfers are broken (it's a bug). This setting will probably work eventually, but not now.

And if you want to make a new Corvette, change "NeverAllowCorvettePurchases":true to "NeverAllowCorvettePurchases":false

[topaz spruce]

the time gate on Countermeasures is killing me smalls haha... 4 hours >.<

[nimble marlin]

Yup. 4 hours or not, might as well be 24 hours for me.

[torpid oracle]

Btw, did you at least like the expedition so far? For me it's been pretty disappointing- I wrote it out earlier but people didn't like my negativity about it

[potent blade]

Everyone still at zero?

[topaz spruce]

i'm glad i had a bunch of expeditions ships I never used, cause having a less cool version of the Radiant Pillar to start off with was rough. Got my Starborn Runner out now.

[topaz spruce]

time gated. need to wait like 4-ish hours

[warm token]

They should have let you start off with a better ship this expedition so people would be less tempted to get one of the reward ships

[solemn bane]

I said earlier I would have preferred bee keeping.

[torpid oracle]

Lol, I think I actually agree with that somehow

[topaz spruce]

to be fair you start in a place where it is really easy to get a Salvaged Interceptor (aka Sentinel)

[solemn bane]

It's not bad, just don't give a damn about it

[torpid oracle]

Yeah

[solemn bane]

And this time gating stuff can kiss my whole ass

[nimble marlin]

I'm just happy we're getting more purple lore.

[jagged ocean]

Damn, no corvette builder. Or is that only during phase 1 of the expedition? I just started.

[warm token]

Yeah but it's like, everyone will just be running those interceptors or the reward ships

[torpid oracle]

yep

[torpid oracle]

I mean, yeah, it's cool, and I'm glad we're getting it, but I was still hoping for more substance than just lore

[lavish stream]

what do you do after tearing the components off of a downed thingy? I destroyed the sentinels guarding it, took apart what I could, nothings happening

[topaz spruce]

on the flip side though.. the Dreadwasp (i think that's the name, maybe Direwasp) Disintegrator is actually a good rifle multi tool you get pretty early

[warm token]

Yeah true I regret getting the atlas staff

[solemn bane]

You either missed a piece or a sentinel is still alive. At least that was my issue.

[warm token]

Gonna spend some time porting over the upgrades

[wary crow]

If you have a mission to go to the Anomaly and complete a restore mission, you finished it, you can check to see back at the Anomaly, the one you were on will say "Completed" over it

[nimble marlin]

Like with everything in NMS these days I just hope anything "Unsubstantial" is a harbinger of LNF.

[glacial pelican]

how do i choose a team for the new expedition? my bf and i wants to choose the same

[torpid oracle]

Pieces easy to miss are a wing underneath, piece on the front, or core in the middle.

[dreamy bolt]

Ah yes, I love my TIE Wing fighter... lol

[tranquil pewter]

You can copy your normal multitool too (tho it does cost some nanites)

[glacial pelican]

oh cool

[tranquil pewter]

Damn bro hit the jackpot

[topaz spruce]

with everyone there it was really hard to see...but a bit red BOX marker shows up on the drone. with so many people though it flashes in and out but i waited until i saw them and just aimed at that and did it pretty quick

[dreamy bolt]

It's certainly not the worst Expo ship I could've started with lol

[topaz spruce]

i did (my S-Class Alien) but it had half the slots so i just used the Disintegrator

[tranquil pewter]

The bad part about my tool being maxed is that it takes me forever to cycle thru my stuff lmao

[smoky wolf]

do i really have to wait every X hour to progress the prismatic core construction

[topaz spruce]

i got into the habit of specializing multi tools now ...so my pure fighting one only has attack stuff on it, my exploration one is mining & scanner

[nimble marlin]

Everyone is contributing. Don't sweat it.

[torpid oracle]

That's why I usually have 2 tools, one for combat, one for util

[solemn bane]

No, you can close the game and not open it again until the community milestone is completed. That's my plan.

[untold crypt]

Yeah it’s mildly annoying, I NEED that armor now bro 🙏

[molten raptor]

Is it still showing 0% for everyone?

[topaz spruce]

yeah there's a timer on it so we gotta wait

[torpid oracle]

It's either bugged or they really want a lot of missions to be completed

or it has a timer to update it ig, but I find that weirder than it being bugged

[smoky wolf]

so in 3 and a half hours i can progress trough phase three...fun such a fun gameplay

[tranquil pewter]

Im guessing its slowed until xbox gets approved

[topaz spruce]

gotta wait for the 3:45-ish hours and hopefully it'll update 😅

[nimble marlin]

Nah - you'll still be stuck half way through phase 3.

[smoky wolf]

welp guess ill come back tomorrow and then forget about everything cause its a silly

[nimble marlin]

Try back in a few weeks unless you want to help with the war effort!

[topaz spruce]

although i really did enjoy || watching the Atlas station being blown away ||

[solemn bane]

Yeah, not let ME do that, dammit.

[tranquil pewter]

Yea that was cool

I like when expeditions have hype moments

[solemn bane]

Where is the patch that I get to blow shit up. Come on.

[tranquil pewter]

You can fight a pirate freighter

[nimble marlin]

|| I actually went back in and landed before it blew up. Got stuck floating in space ||

[topaz spruce]

i think the only real issue i have with expedition... is everyone and their third cousin nine times removed making bases right at the spawn and it being almost impossible to use a portable refiner to get away

[vague gate]

as always

[tranquil pewter]

Ive almost never had a problem with bases obstructing mission obs

[nimble marlin]

Ugh, yeah. Had to go all the way back to my ship to be able to place it.

[tranquil pewter]

Maybe its smth with my settings idk

[topaz spruce]

same... i literally travelled 3,000u and bases EVERYWHERE

[vague gate]

i'm actually having a new issue. the "create multitool/starship" buttons in the expedition terminus are grayed out, they say i've already copied them

[topaz spruce]

you can't copy your ship in this one

[wary crow]

I just put mine down right next to my claimed ship in the ship spawn area, let me drop it right in front of or behind it. Does that not work now?

[topaz spruce]

you CAN use Expedition rewards to generate one though (like the Iron Vulture or Boundary Herald)

[vague gate]

what about multi-tool? it was available earlier, i went and got the nanites, came back, and it was grayed out

[topaz spruce]

it does... i just didn't know until i spent 45 minutes walking around >.<

[topaz spruce]

multi-tool was fine for me

[wary crow]

Aw dang, sorry 🙁

[vague gate]

hmm.

[torpid oracle]

It's also still frustrating to me that, just like every expedition, I had to turn off MP to play it because certain steps got bugged like always. For an expedition that felt like it was supposed to focus on the community coordination, it sucks that not much coordination is actually involved especially when you have to disable MP

[topaz spruce]

but to be fair, the expedition gives you a decent A-class rifle so you don't need to port one in

and it looks rather bad ass

[wary crow]

sad times... however...

WEAVERS ON TOP

[vague gate]

if it's gonna force me into red clothes it damn well better give me my atlas sceptre too

[topaz spruce]

once i got out of that initial bit it was fine

[topaz spruce]

you can load the base version of it from the Expedition Rewards

[torpid oracle]

Me and several others had issues with the crashed swarmer site step with MP enabled (disabling MP immediately fixed it)

[nimble marlin]

Ugh - so bummed I got stuck in Royals.

[vague gate]

same

[topaz spruce]

yeah i sat there waiting for the massive horde of corrupted sentinels to stop glitching the crashed droned and just waited for the markers to show up and hit it one at a time

[wary crow]

I wonder if it even matters, is there somethin extra for the winning faction?

[vague gate]

OH i figured it out. i claimed the base version of the atlas spectre, it got confused and thought i already had the transferred one

[topaz spruce]

a permanent monument or something according to the patch notes

[vague gate]

boomstick retrieved.

[wary crow]

I'll hold back my unbridled excitement

[torpid oracle]

Dude, even if my faction wins, I won't even feel like I deserve it- it's pretty much just RNG

[nimble marlin]

Yeah, it doesn't matter. Just bummed I got my least favorite color of the three AND we're losing.

[torpid oracle]

There's no sense of pride or accomplishment for me

[tranquil pewter]

Im guessing itll be like destiny where we get a little trophy somewhere in the atlas

But maybe itll be a big statue

[torpid oracle]

Especially since I never even picked the faction I got lmfao

[wary crow]

There is still time, the royals might run a sneaky campaign to pull ahead in the 4th quarter

[lavish stream]

was happy to see I was red (royal), then saw the score and was like oh

[glacial pelican]

maaaaaaan worst way to start an expedition ever

[topaz spruce]

i do like the fact there's plenty of lush planets in this expedition. i found a nice beach-side area to base on and setup a massive autofishing operation to farm nanites while i wait

[wary crow]

Royals were trouncing the expedition initially

[nimble marlin]

Guess we'll see. Maybe all the people late to the game will all score RED on the personality test too.

[topaz spruce]

also i found it hilarious i got put into Sages... seems like every game that has factions i end up in the "wisdom" group

[wary crow]

Its hip to be wise

[open dagger]

Humm... were we suppose to get refiner plans?

[topaz spruce]

you start with it i think

the portable one anyways.

[dreamy bolt]

So what I'm hearing, do phase 1 and 2, then chill on phase 3 lol

[wary crow]

so, anyone else try and fight the spicy boy hanging outside of the space station? How'd it work out for ya?

[topaz spruce]

pretty much... you have to wait for the one bit awhile. can farm nanites and whatever for the expedition bonus in the meantime

[topaz spruce]

it's part of the story so .... yes

[nimble marlin]

You'll get half way through phase 3 and then we're all waiting on the war effort.

[obtuse jay]

quick question, this is gonna be my first expedition.. to start off do i go to nexus or it's in the logs?

[jagged kestrel]

Im stuck at the 3 phase 4mission

[topaz spruce]

you will unlock it after doing a few steps

[jagged kestrel]

Do i have to wait?

[maiden blade]

I waited for 4 hours and did the missions 2nd time still at 0%

[wary crow]

Not the one in front of the atlas station, just next to the regular space station. At least I never saw a mission for that one

[dreamy bolt]

So get to p3 and then go fight Swarms. Gotcha lol

[obtuse jay]

what steps 😭

[topaz spruce]

just play out Phase 1. it'll tell you when you can go to Anomaly

[nimble marlin]

It's a community progress bar. Will probably be 1-2% tomorrow.

[jagged kestrel]

What how long is this going to take ?

I want that suit

[topaz spruce]

well that's fun 🤣

[wary crow]

Im talkin about this one...

[smoky wolf]

so everyone gonna be stuck at phase 3 mission 4 for a while

[nimble marlin]

Hold on, I'll go shake Sean Murray until he tells me.

[jagged kestrel]

Do that good sir

[torpid oracle]

while you're at it, can you tell him to let us do multiple factions on different saves?

[topaz spruce]

he'll probably just throw multiple bee emojis at you

[maiden blade]

This much progress and still at 0% doesn't make sense

[topaz spruce]

i might go back and try now that i have my exotic S-Class

[wary crow]

That swarm station is... um... not socialized... and angry... very angry

[torpid oracle]

It's because you didn't make 13 different saves, gotten to that point, so you can farm 39 more points

[jagged kestrel]

Holy

[topaz spruce]

like "anime protagonist watched their friend get deleted" angry, "world war hulk" angry, or "pooh bear uses armament haki" angry?

[forest oyster]

is this possible?

[forest oyster]

the repeatable missions are pretty boring so far tbh

Im hoping a wider variety will be released

[torpid oracle]

technically I don't see why not. You'd be forced into the same faction each time but that's the point, right?

[topaz spruce]

i'm collecting drops for another game while i'm doing expedition and now i'm doing massive inventory management for both games >.<

[forest oyster]

I dont manage my inventory I dump everything in my freighter container storage and pray I have enough of whatever I need

[forest oyster]

I think Ill check in a minute

[lavish stream]

how the hell am i supposed to get parts that are glitched into the ground when you cant terraform the ground

[torpid oracle]

Well, it'll take you 1-2 hours each save

Unless there's some big time saves I don't know of

[whole seal]

Need a Hazmat Gauntlet

[torpid oracle]

You're given one as a reward

[whole seal]

Oh yea - I forgot to collect it.

Now I got it.

🙂

[lost tree]

question, is the progression of the prismatic corse 0% for EVERYONE? just hope nothing glitched and im not getting any progress

[topaz spruce]

i like something resembling organization when i can help it

[torpid oracle]

yes it's 0%, we don't know if it's glitched, but it's likely intentional

[topaz spruce]

welcome to the hive of "when 0% will update"

[torpid oracle]

Either because the progression is actually time based, not fragment based, or it's locked until xbox release or some other reason

[lost tree]

alr, ty. I speculate it's gonna take the entire expedition to get finished xd

[lost tree]

HIVE UPDATE REFERENCE

[torpid oracle]

It wouldn't take the entire expedition because we'd still need to finish the last few milestones after that one. But it'll probably take at least a week, probably much more =///

[solemn bane]

I feel like the community progress has been broken a lot in the past. But don't worry, it somehow miraculously always finishes.

[lost tree]

o yea, true

[torpid oracle]

Right? Like even the community progress has never felt genuine lol

[golden elbow]

bruh what the frick is this on my first purge mission... someone has a base on top of the swarmer and i cant fully disassemble it

[topaz spruce]

good thing expedition is 8 weeks.... it'll take 6 to update it :p

[topaz spruce]

turn multiplayer off, log out, then log back in

[lavish stream]

report the base, that makes it disappear

[white grove]

Who thought it was a good idea to build a base over this one so no one can complete the quest??

[solemn bane]

This one is especially bullshit. This close with people being sorted via a personality test? Any statistition would instantly call bullshit, lol.

[jagged kestrel]

One question this cool ship that you got from an expedition aswell as the cool pointy corvette parts.
Is it true that i can get this stuff again in winter?

[topaz spruce]

if you're asking about the annual Redux expeditions.... it's possible if they do the same ones again.

[torpid oracle]

Well we already know it's not related to the test at all, the answer don't matter, it's chosen and locked at an account level
But the community progress in any event or expedition always has a hint of bullshit progression (It's like this for every game as well imo)

[jagged kestrel]

Alr ty but i think any expedition i did not expierence would be great

[lavish stream]

the bloody part of the drone wont get loose no mattetr how I push or pull

[solemn bane]

If you're on PC you can play any of them again.

[plucky island]

Who put that damn base there and why

[jagged kestrel]

Try clicking and hold a few secs not holding the whole time that wirked for me

[torpid oracle]

Don't worry bro, this is a community focused event that'll bring us all together and has no issues 😊

[lavish stream]

its like INSIDe the goddamn thing. Wont come loose

[torpid oracle]

Try from another angle? Maybe you're trying to get the one that comes out from the front

[solemn bane]

Grab it, shoot it, grab it again

[lavish stream]

been trying that. Can I send a pic in here or is that spoilers

[torpid oracle]

Nah, go for it

[lavish stream]

already got the front and sides

[torpid oracle]

You could also spoil images if you're worried or care that much

[jagged kestrel]

You really got the front?

[lavish stream]

i THINK whats left is that middle? tried the front, nothing latches on

[lavish stream]

yupo

[torpid oracle]

Idk, I'm kinda on "it's gotta be the front part" side

You already got everything in the middle

[wary crow]

did you get the lower right fin thats slightly burried?

[lavish stream]

the front detached already

[lavish stream]

yup

[torpid oracle]

That's not the front

I dont think

[torpid oracle]

Hm

[jagged kestrel]

Try pulling from there

[wary crow]

You must go deeper

[torpid oracle]

And for what its worth, I think you can always try reloading to try again / fix any issues
||and as always, make sure MP is turned off in the community focused events||

[lavish stream]

the 5/6 parts removed thus far

[torpid oracle]

I think you're missing a wing then

Probably on the bottom

[solemn bane]

Try to get a higher angle, I thionk there are two pieces from the back

Oh, yeah, looks like you got that one

[lavish stream]

D:

[lost tree]

idk what to do outside of the 3 missions that i cant do for 5 hours, so im doing what i do best and thats making FAT STACKS OF UNITS

[lavish stream]

what am I doing wrong

[solemn bane]

You got the bottom wing?

[jagged kestrel]

Nah he can get that middle part from the front i think

[somber flicker]

@lavish stream try putting down the gun and just approach it

You might get a prompt to interact

[jagged kestrel]

I struggled bc of lag so much on this to

[solemn bane]

This game is so dumb, lol.

[torpid oracle]

I can check for sure if you're able to screenshare in one of the VCs

[solemn bane]

JIGGLE THE HANDLE

[lavish stream]

there's a part prompt inside in the middle

[somber flicker]

If not, it should show you a red icon, thats the part you have to pull

[wary crow]

First picture, the red mark, there is one more piece jammed way down in there, stand on the nub and aim downward into it

[torpid oracle]

Yeah, just reload your game bro

[somber flicker]

Had same issues yesterday, took 30mins to do this @lavish stream

[vague gate]

i'm fucking howling. i got teleported right after ||the atlas station got blown up|| and. y'all. who tf did this

[wary crow]

jump on the nubs sticking out from the side with the biggest mechadussy

[solemn bane]

The real community event is 30 people in Discord trying to talk someone through dismantling a space toilet.

[lavish stream]

omg it IS inside. I can see it jiggle, trying to get it loose now

[static dune]

just saw the same thing lol

[somber flicker]

||hive glass ofc||

[lavish stream]

even in a simulated universe one cannot be free from da golden arches

[wary crow]

Yeah its a pain, gotta give it the full shoulder-deep treatment

[iron stratus]

Can we not bring our ships into this one?

[solemn bane]

MNMSHA

[torpid oracle]

pls don't leak my doordash 2FA code

[tranquil pewter]

No, but you can get expedition ships

[solemn bane]

Or Make Atlas Healthy Again if you want to be a little more obvious.

[vague gate]

whoever did this know they are the funniest person in the galaxy

[lavish stream]

IT WORKED. Held down the button and it jiggled free

[wary crow]

o7

[iron stratus]

Expedition ships?

[solemn bane]

I should never doubt myself.

[tranquil pewter]

Ships from other expeditions if youve unlocked them

[torpid oracle]

Bro is literally describing the door of a 1998 nissan altima

[lavish stream]

ye

[iron stratus]

How do I do that?

[elfin fractal]

Did they seriously take away being able to report bases and go off multiplayer to build you own stuff?

[tranquil pewter]

if you dont know you probably dont have em

[nimble marlin]

So glad other people are getting as much a kick out of it as I did.

[iron stratus]

I guess I don't know what all ships are from expeditions, and where I'd be able to get them on this expedition. I think the star runner was from an expedition?

[tranquil pewter]

do you have that one?

[iron stratus]

Yeah

[tranquil pewter]

ah ok so once you go into the expedition and get access to the anomaly you can go to the quicksilver guy and claim the ship from him

[vague gate]

it's been like 15 minutes and i'm still bursting into giggles. absolutely god tier prank

[vague gate]

far as i can tell, yeah : (

[iron stratus]

Ahhhhh forgot you could claim stuff like that on expeditions. Weird we can't copy our ships though. I wanted my corvett for the storage 🙁

[lavish stream]

does it matter which option? scrambling the node

[crisp linden]

Question is the progress on the core thing like is it a player base effort or solo effort

[torpid oracle]

silicate powder is cheap, I would just do that one

[nimble marlin]

All of us.

[lost tree]

is there absolutely anything else to do regarding the Hive and contributing that isnt doing the 3 missions and waiting 5 hours?

[torpid oracle]

Correct

[lost tree]

..correct on what

[honest surge]

nothing to do

[lost tree]

oh..

guguhuhgh

[torpid oracle]

||Very engaging, much wow||

[solemn bane]

Or none of us, if I'm right about how fake the numbers are, lol.

[crisp linden]

Is the hive just for this expedition or

[nimble marlin]

Oh yeah. It could certainly just be a timer.

[torpid oracle]

Good question, no one knows for sure yet (maybe even hello games doesn't know yet)

[honest surge]

welp i got my sentinel ship, time to log off

[torpid oracle]

But there are crashed swarmers outside of the expedition right now I believe (let me double check that tho)

[crisp linden]

God I hope this doesn’t take too long hopefully no longer than a week

[nimble marlin]

Whole event is 8 weeks long so, don't count on it.

[torpid oracle]

That's up to Hello Games 🙂
I don't think the community has any control over it regardless of how many times we do 3 missions every 6 hours

[lavish stream]

ahhh nobody can progress past doing the 3 mission types huh? Since its community based

[torpid oracle]

Correct

[crisp linden]

Yeah

[honest surge]

we can bring the ship from expedition to the main save right?

[torpid oracle]

Should be able to

[crisp linden]

Yeah it costs Nantes though

[honest surge]

wat

[torpid oracle]

Nanites

[honest surge]

damn no point getting one in the expedition then

[torpid oracle]

Probably not

[honest surge]

😭

[nimble marlin]

Yeah... I'm not paying nanites for the red rocket they stuck me with...

[solemn bane]

You'll get a shitload of nanites just for completing the expedition.

In case you find something you like.

[torpid oracle]

Man, I miss the Titan Expedition. That was peak.

They set the standards so high there

[honest surge]

should i copy the multitool now, or later?

[torpid oracle]

To your main save?

[honest surge]

yaeh

[torpid oracle]

I'd wait until you've completed the expedition

[honest surge]

ah okay

[nimble marlin]

Yeah, it's pretty good. Best to make use of it first.

[solemn zodiac]

Is the expedition out? I couldn't make a new save for it

[fervent bloom]

Currently stuck on the disassembly mission. The ship it sent me to is swarming with people and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if there just isn't anything to disassemble

[nimble marlin]

Yeah, a lot of people are having that problem. There is an archive tower nearby. Land there and turn off Multi-player .

[indigo mountain]

time to jump back in

just outfitted a fighter too

[lavish stream]

I always turn MP off for expeditions

[nimble marlin]

(Turn it back on before you get to the Atlas though... trust me)

[chrome perch]

...

[lavish stream]

Whoops way too late. Got obliterated

[royal marsh]

Yesterday i encountered an swarm of -112 Sentiels, was pretty chaotix lol

Also pretty cool

[torpid oracle]

I do too, and for this expedition, I was like, surely this is the one- this is the one where they would've ironed out all the kinks, really made MP work so that we can feel like a community while we do this... I had to turn it off 🙁

[nimble marlin]

It's fine. || someone just built a McDonald's where you get teleported to and it's funny as hell after that "epic moment" ||

[royal marsh]

Theyre truly everywere

[fervent bloom]

Worked a treat. Thanks for that. Haven't done many expeditions

[charred magnet]

Does it still say Prismatic core progress 0% and fragment contribution 0% for everyone?

[real relic]

yep

with a total score of about 150k still not reaching 1%, its a bit concerning

[nimble marlin]

Community goal. Could just be a glorified timer.

[charred magnet]

Fr

I mean there are still 8 weeks...

It does say 55d : 7h : 4m for me next to the construction bar...

[real relic]

At this rate it'll be like 3 months when we hit 100%

and yes, being well aware it ends before then

[devout echo]

this exp lasts 2 month ...

[charred magnet]

Yeah, I would rather the whole expedition not be based on one singular timer that you just have to wait months for tho

[nimble marlin]

"Every incremental atom will be procedurally generated"

[haughty flower]

it's 100% railroaded, got enough experience with this sort of stuff from some HD2 major orders

[surreal iron]

Did anyone else just see team Weavers jump from 3rd to 1st?

[nimble marlin]

Either that, Sean overestimated how many people would be contributing or the counter is broken. Any are equally likely.

[chrome perch]

Most likely we got massive swarm of people, while being 3rd 🤷‍♂️

[loud surge]

Neither are the case

[surreal iron]

We'll see after a full day has passed I guess

[loud surge]

It's always artificially increased

[haughty flower]

the fact it's not going up at all, not even a single % will surely make some people give up on this entirely, and it's a shame because it's a cool concept

[loud surge]

I just saw the Maccas at the portal LOL

[nimble marlin]

It was so good. 🤣

[haughty flower]

caught me off guard too, anyone got the coords to it?

[loud surge]

I was so worried that I messed up when the ||atlas|| blew up

[nimble marlin]

I thought it was bugged, went and landed inside and got stuck floating in space

[loud surge]

Lol

[chrome perch]

People still do it, also keep in mind that some platforms didn't got 3.40 yet 🙂

[nimble marlin]

Was the explosion spectacular? 😆

[surreal iron]

I saw the explosion, but then my screen stayed white for awhile, then I saw a planet for a microsec then reinisialized

What did the planet look like?

Like it teleported me to it I could tell but it went back to white so quickly it seemed like I was supposed to see it and it just bugged

[nimble marlin]

Couldn't tell you, all I could say was I was lovin' it.

[charred magnet]

What are the odds hg just changes it?

[haughty flower]

could just be paused for this, until every platform is up do date

but idk

[nimble marlin]

It's 7 am in tea and biscuit time. If the counter is broken HG probably won't be scratching their heads over it for another hour or so.

[surreal iron]

It's okay I guess, it's just 'dailies' but with teams

honestly was expecting more from the expedition

But really its just doing the story stuff for a hour, and then logging in twice a day for the dailies 🙁

[loud surge]

Missed it

[tranquil socket]

Something tells me that your team is predetermined the moment you launch the game lol I want that Weaver flag pack to go with the posters in my base cuz I like the design much better but I keep getting sage 😅

[fluid garnet]

yo boys im on the first purge mission rn but the swarm wreck is partially underground with a base built around it so i cant alter the terrain, do any of yall know a way to still do the mission or should i just do a different one lol

[ancient pier]

you can only get a team once per account

after that it will always be that team

[tranquil socket]

That's what I figured, was worth a shot though

[surreal iron]

I know the one you are talking about, report the base itll vanish

They were blocking me too

[fluid garnet]

ah bet, ty dawg

[ancient pier]

there are actually 2 bases there

[plucky island]

Get ready for absolute hell bro

[ancient pier]

if you report one be wary of the other

[ebon gate]

I need help. I teleported to a base where there's no teleportation. Now I'm very far off from my ship

How to get back immediately 😩

[icy obsidian]

Is this swarm an expedition?

[ebon gate]

Yes

[chrome perch]

It took weeks in previous update for Switch. I hope not 🤣

[ancient pier]

summon your ship if you have launch fuel

[ebon gate]

I don't 🥀

I just started 🥀

[surreal iron]

Or if not death should work

[ebon gate]

I tried

No luck

Am i cooked? 😭

[surreal iron]

Could reload the save that isnt an autosave

[ancient pier]

I would consider myself cooked at that point but I am a weaker man than most

[icy obsidian]

Terminus says no active expedition 🙁

[chrome perch]

What platform?

[icy obsidian]

Pc

Mac

[tranquil pewter]

mac hasnt updated yet

[chrome perch]

Weird 🤔

[tranquil pewter]

neither has xbox and pc game pass

[icy obsidian]

Fym

[tranquil pewter]

they gotta approve the updates on those consoles so it takes longer

[icy obsidian]

Aw

I thought since its on steam it didnt matter

[chrome perch]

Did you got 9gb update?

[icy obsidian]

No for some reason

I just launched the game and it started up

[devout echo]

Are they not letting us duplicate a Starship for this expedition?

[sweet hornet]

Correct, but any you have as a reward you can still use.

[fervent bloom]

The McDonald's is a nice touch

[sweet hornet]

HG should get a dollar for ever player that has to see that lol

[sturdy frost]

I'm supposed to summon the anomoly, it's my last step, btu I can't :(

What do I do?

[woven bramble]

wait so we cant progress the expedition by ourselves?

[sturdy frost]

I've been seeing others leave the system to what I assume it the anomaly, I just can't

Cause there is no way that you could've gotten a hyperdrive I don't think

[sweet hornet]

Have you claimed everything from your previous steps, it should be one of them.

[solemn bane]

It's not in your quick menu? Go to the space station, get out of your ship, go out and try again. If that doesn't work, relog.

[solemn bane]

You can just do the quests at the Anomaly every few hours, if you believe those actually contribute to the goal.

[sturdy frost]

Ig I'll have to relog, but also I have claimed my other stuff. I didn't see a hyperdrive

[woven bramble]

mna i thought its gonna be a quick expedition

[solemn bane]

It is if you quit now, lol.

[sturdy frost]

Why would you want it to be quick? this is super fun

[smoky wolf]

i feel its like a 50/50 split on the whole "forced to wait to finish expadition:

[stark creek]

How's everyone doing? Any expedition questions?

[sturdy frost]

I'm good, just relogged to attempt to fix my quest to visit anomaly

So I just can't go to the anomaly? I went into the space staion, went back out, and it didn't work. I tried to save and relog, and it didn't work. I claimed everything, the only thing I have left is to go to the anomaly and I can't even summon it

[stark creek]

What quest did you do last

[tranquil pewter]

i do wish there was more variety in missions but yea im having fun with it

[sturdy frost]

approaching the glass thing in the sky. I already faought the swarms

[stark creek]

Hmm the only thing I can think is to perhaps hop systems?

[sturdy frost]

How? I don't have hyperdrive? I have to summon the anomaly to get it

[stark creek]

Oh man

[sturdy frost]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying

[stark creek]

What error is it giving you? Are you too close to a planet or station?

[karmic plover]

guys does this expedition allow stuff transfer?

from main save to the exped save

[solemn bane]

You claimed all the rewards? Turned off multiplayer?

[sturdy frost]

It's not even giving me an error. It's just not in my quick menu

[stark creek]

Yes, you have slots for items and technology. Multi tool can be copied, ship cannot

[sturdy frost]

I can try turning off multiplayer. Do I need to do that in mode select?

[karmic plover]

what do i bring?

like basic stuff?

or is there some hyperspecific stuff that i need

[stark creek]

In network settings

[stark creek]

I would recommend some warp fuel and a personal refiner

[karmic plover]

The suit one?

[sturdy frost]

Turning off multiplayer fixed it. Thank you

[stark creek]

The planet you start on will have a lot, and I mean a lot, of bases so it can be hard to put down a refiner

[stark creek]

The suit one, yes

It'll save you a headache

[karmic plover]

Ah right yeah ive seen the complaints on main chat

[stark creek]

I'm glad you figured it out!

[sturdy frost]

tysm guys

This is my first expo, so I don't know a lot lol

[karmic plover]

But i cant access the anomaly yet tho

[stark creek]

Also silicate powder makes glass

[karmic plover]

Unless i took off from the 1st planet

then i cant get the personal refiner?

[sturdy frost]

40 Silicate Powder refined = 1 Glass

[solemn bane]

lol, always multiplayer. TEN MORE YEARS!

[stark creek]

Ohhh you're right

[terse crystal]

does the question for the faction affects wich one you get or is random regardless of answers?

[karmic plover]

i guess im just cooked

[topaz spruce]

well we might not be able to build corvettes but the parts gave me a laaaaaht of money

[stark creek]

It appears to have been randomly assigned via account ID upon update

[karmic plover]

ill probably just go in buck naked then

[sturdy frost]

Like do you not have access to the anomaly on ur main?

[stark creek]

You can always put your refiner down beside your ship

[topaz spruce]

if you put the portable refiner down right next to your ship it should work

[karmic plover]

I see

[stark creek]

The spot the ships are crashed at seem to override the base claim

[wraith junco]

This is da way

[karmic plover]

lemme forward this to the struggling ppl over at the main chat

[stark creek]

Yee

That's what I did earlier, I just darted over to my crashed ship when I needed to refine stuff

[tranquil pewter]

youll probably want some things you can refine into nanites too if you want to carry over your multitool

[stark creek]

OH YEAH that was the last thing! Thanks

The multi tool is expensive to copy

[topaz spruce]

one of the phase steps gives you 10,000 nanites so that isn't even an issue

[tranquil pewter]

its a later phase and im lazy

[topaz spruce]

and the Direwasp Disintegrator is a good multi anyways

[stark creek]

But you'll also get a bunch of free upgrades for your new tool and you'll get another multi tool from the expedition after finishing phase 2 I think

Your ship and exo suit will also get a bunch of free upgrades from finishing missions

I went in nakey with some stuff in the stash just in case and ended up not needing anything

But if you wanna swap your ship for a more aesthetic one, you'll want units. Or if you wanna upgrade your starter ship you'll need nanites

Sorry if it feels like I'm stating the obvious

[topaz spruce]

you can't copy your ship in, but if you have ships from previous expeditions you can copy the base version and roll with that for free once you hit the Anomaly

[stark creek]

I feel like in the future we might benefit from a pinned like
Day one issues solved

[karmic plover]

nah idc about that tbh, i only want my corvette in for the aura

but you cant

unless save editing

😂

[stark creek]

Yeah no corvettes :c

[karmic plover]

so ill just force edit it in

the photo potential is very high

[sweet hornet]

at one point you get dumped 10k nanites in the missions...

[karmic plover]

i aint missing ts without my vette

[stark creek]

Careful, don't do it too early. I don't remember which mission but if you do it too early you can brick yourself

Save editing in your corvette I mean

[karmic plover]

yeah ill probably progress past the 1st planet

and then ill do that

[junior vault]

sorry if this is already answered, but, you can't copy ships to this expedition?

[karmic plover]

yes

[stark creek]

Yeah I think it happens if you do it before you leave the planet, don't quote me though

[sweet hornet]

correct

[stark creek]

I'll feel horrible if I'm wrong

[solemn bane]

Save editing or expedition config editing: #nms-expedition message

[karmic plover]

nah, wasnt planning to do that anyways

[karmic plover]

Thaanks man!

[junior vault]

welp, thanks for the quick response!

[topaz spruce]

it's blocked. no ships or corvettes from a save, but you can use Expedition Rewards and generate a base version of something like a Boundary Herald

[karmic plover]

wait uh if i change that, can i just copy the vette over?

[junior vault]

oh that's great

[karmic plover]

Without having to mess around with the ship JSONs?

[junior vault]

thx!

[stark creek]

I miss my normal save solar ship in the expedition :c
What do you meaann my expedition ship doesn't charge its thrusters and take like 3% to take off

[karmic plover]

"AllowSaveContextCorvetteTransfer":false

[solemn bane]

Yep.

[karmic plover]

so if i change this to true, i can just copy it?

hell yeah!

[solemn bane]

Yes. You have to be offline though, so the config doesn't get replaced. After you copy and save you can close the game and go back online and everything should stay as is.

[hybrid gull]

I cant place a refiner anywhere dude

Theres too many base computers everywhere

[topaz spruce]

do it right next to your ship

[karmic plover]

offline as in just turn off my internet right? not just turn the mp off

[charred magnet]

Has anyone been able to grab a little swarm guy with the grav coil? I swear I've tried at least 10 times and I should have gotten it

[solemn bane]

Steam and GoG have an offline mode, unplugging your internet also works. Or blocking NMS.exe from connecting to the internet via a firewall setting.

[karmic plover]

i see

tysm!

[topaz spruce]

look for the little red hitboxes that show up next to the parts and aim there. takes a couple tries.

[stark creek]

Go to where your ship is crashed

[charred magnet]

Oh, no I mean the sentinel like ones

The alive ones

[topaz spruce]

oh the little swarm buggers? i haven't fought any yet so no idea

[charred magnet]

Ah ok

[stark creek]

Do you just wanna throw em around a little bit or

[dreamy bolt]

Okay, so... can I go find a Pirate System and get a Solar Ship?

[charred magnet]

Ofc

[dreamy bolt]

Or do I gotta stick with the one they gave me? lol

[topaz spruce]

you can still get a ship in-game yeah

[stark creek]

Ye some people have

[topaz spruce]

or use an Expedition reward ship

(i'm using my Starborn Runner)

[dreamy bolt]

I don't have any Expo Ship parts besides the big hauler ones lol

[charred magnet]

I mean I was secretly hoping for smth like the remnant expedition where you could "reorient" them

[topaz spruce]

but yeah if you find a Pirate system you can still get a solar ship if you want

[sturdy frost]

So does anyone know what choices I have to make to get weaver and sage? I wanna do this expo more than once so I can get all the rewards, unless that's not a thing

[stark creek]

This is the only expedition I've done so I'm unaware of previous ones and their shenanigans, sadly

[dreamy bolt]

If I wanna go through the effort, I could get a Sentinel ship.. xD

[stark creek]

People have!

[stark creek]

It's not a thing

[torpid oracle]

You cannot choose a faction

It's account locked

[velvet silo]

Thank for plenty People who create bug with base installation on the objectif during phase 3, great thing, thank you Hello game to can doing this,

[karmic plover]

also uh @solemn bane what about the copy price? Does it have a set amount or what

[dim dragon]

HG needs to disallow base building in this expedition. There are oxygen-deprived fetuses ruining it for everyone, even those on their own team

[velvet silo]

Pffff 😡😡😡

[charred magnet]

How does it choose?

[torpid oracle]

Random

[stark creek]

Report it via the quick menu

[sturdy frost]

So if I've done one, I can't go back and play to get a different faction?

[charred magnet]

If you report the base, it will delete it for your save

[dreamy bolt]

I thought the questions you answered had some bearing on it lol

[torpid oracle]

Correct

[sturdy frost]

That's bogus lol

[stark creek]

It's tied to your account ID

[dim dragon]

Terrain manipulation is still blocked, even after reporting, i cannot get to the wreckage

[velvet silo]

You fall in the same situation than me, at ten minute ago,

[charred magnet]

Oh, it worked for me

[velvet silo]

Yes but you've got modificated

[charred magnet]

Do you have multiplayer on?

[solemn bane]

Yeah it's like a few hundred nanites. You should have that from the milestones. Price varies based on parts and class I think.

[velvet silo]

Yes

[charred magnet]

Hm?

[charred magnet]

Ah I did it with multiplayer off

[karmic plover]

Ah thanks

[velvet silo]

We have the same situation

[charred magnet]

You could try that

[dim dragon]

new development, even if it looks like you deleted the right base, report all of them. i can mine now!

[karmic plover]

Do i need to alr be in the exped to change the config or i can do it even before i enter

[stark creek]

Yeah generally turning off multiplayer should be step one in trouble shooting issues in the expedition

[velvet silo]

Me no, i rebegin the same mission, but hg don't add another pvp now

[dim robin]

if you report a base it disappears for you, which should allow you to mine

[dim dragon]

yeah my mistake was reporting only one of them and assuming that the pieces that were still there was just a bug

[solemn bane]

You can do it before

[karmic plover]

ah okay

[boreal linden]

this is very valuable info

[stark creek]

We really do need a frequently asked questions thread haha

[karmic plover]

i opened the exped with my internet unlpugged

ts very calming

No bases to be seen

hell yeah

[mellow badge]

there is a #nms-questions channel with threads

3am brain run on fumes, bout ready to play more expedition

[signal night]

failing a test 🥀 😭

I love this personality based grouping!

[shy helm]

gotta wait another hour to do more missions for the expedition but man, lowkey annoyed we can't copy our ships over

Why limit THAT but then not limit the expedition redeemable ships???????

[mellow badge]

cant make the expedition too easy can they?

[stark creek]

Yeah but I worry people with expedition questions won't look outside the expedition channel haha

[shy helm]

it is when you can redeem a better one through the anamoly

why one and not both

[earnest gale]

you will have your thomas the tank engine corvette soon enough 🙂

[tranquil pewter]

the expedition ships are more than enough imo, a lot of them are decently fast

[mellow badge]

people who only show up on Discord to complain you mean?

[karmic plover]

😂

[stark creek]

I mean I only came here originally to ask where to find silver on the first planet 😅

[rich gale]

so I have to wait an hour to make progress on Countermeasures? I'm not doing anything wrong?

[stark creek]

Ye

We wait

[shy helm]

Could make a thread within this chnanel specifically

for questions

[stark creek]

If you think it'll get used!

[mellow badge]

I cant remember why I first joined here, I think it was to ask about mods

[topaz spruce]

i've been waiting the last 4 hours so no, nothing wrong

[rich gale]

Gotcha

I wish the next phase stuff was revealed or something so I had some way to spend my time

[stark creek]

I could type up the answers to frequently asked questions from today if we wanted to start a lil thread

[topaz spruce]

been farming an absolute bankroll worth of nanites though LUL

[stark creek]

You spend it dreaming

[shy helm]

The waiting does feel kinda blegh when the faction who had more ppl early on is the most likely to win

[stark creek]

Dreaming of the corvettes we could've had

[topaz spruce]

i had over 200,000 at one point

[karmic plover]

@stark creek sry for the tag, the ship milestones is only for the 1st phase right?

[boreal linden]

quick question, im stuck on trying to find frost crystals to fix my ship for the expidition, im on a planet with dangerios hot fog and it says i need to go to a cold planet...am i cooked?

[mellow badge]

the faction the questions put me in was Royal

[karmic plover]

after that im good?

[shy helm]

you can use a refiner with silicate to make glass

[boreal linden]

tysmmm

[solemn bane]

We usually get a faq going in the pinned posts eventually.

[dim dragon]

it's really misleading that they show you that its craftable with frost crystals

[stark creek]

So you don't get bricked? I'm fairly certain it's after the first phase yes

[karmic plover]

Yea

Okies thanks fam

[shy helm]

it is but then the reminder text says to use a refiner with silicate

[stark creek]

Any time 🫡

[mellow badge]

pinned recipe thing mentions refining silicate to make glass

[stark creek]

Until I don't have the answer at least

Yeah 40 silicate

Get by terrain manipulation

[rich gale]

is it possible to make progress on the expedition from a non-expedition save?

[stark creek]

No

[mellow badge]

I have a crapload of Silicate just for recharging terrain manipulator

[rich gale]

alright good

[shy helm]

same lol

[stark creek]

I always have like 9999 of the silicate

[rich gale]

well I don't particularly like that but that means I'm on the right track sticking to an expedition save

[shy helm]

wish the recharge menu would automatically go to that isntead of ferrite dust

[harsh fern]

Anyone have a solution for this? A guy built a base on top of a swarmer that is under ground and no one can edit the terrain

[shy helm]

report it

it disappears

[stark creek]

Use the quick menu

[shy helm]

if you still cant, keep reporting until you can

[dim dragon]

report EVERY base that the quick menu will let you report

[devout echo]

that first crash site is a clusterF@rk

[stark creek]

Quick menu to report and turn off multiplayer if it persists

[devout echo]

dude just landed his ship right on top of me.

[shy helm]

dude, i had to disable multiplayer bc pieces kept respawning whenever someone new would wander over

[stark creek]

Oh pvp is turned on by default in the expedition

[shy helm]

ended up dying bc swarm after swarm after swarm was spawned in

[rich gale]

unrelated and kinda off-topic but I hope I get another chance at the previous expeditions I missed all of them but the rerun of Breach

[stark creek]

Don't forget to turn that off

[devout echo]

Roger that I forgot

[shy helm]

was fuckin annoying

[dim dragon]

They do really need to turn off base building around the mission objectives though. This is supposed to be a collaborative war effort to defeat the swarm, what's the bloody point if I have to turn off mp to be able to complete the mission

[stark creek]

1000%

Definitely something they need to work on in the future

[shy helm]

up vote that shit

[stark creek]

Email it directly to Sean Murray

[solemn bane]

The problems people complain about the most are also the problems that have existed for the longest. It's wild.

[stark creek]

Yup

Commonplace in video games

A bit sad since this one is nearly a decade old

Ah what a way to level up. Via complaint

[karmic plover]

i hope the dudes who do this have their pillow hot on both sides all night

[chrome kestrel]

55 days until the core is done

[chrome kestrel]

Report the base it will disappear

[stark creek]

And that there's a cricket in their room all night. Just chirping

[shy helm]

that's.... that's when the expedition ends, not when the core is built

[karmic plover]

and when they wake up, a lego magically appears under their feet

[velvet silo]

Now i wait the core is finish

[stark creek]

I think the text does say that the core will finish in 55 days which is the end of the expedition, but I think they'll do something soon and change the dates around

[chrome kestrel]

When will it be built then?

[shy helm]

depends on how much ppl do the missions at the core

[velvet silo]

So Boring, so bad, the mission are full bug, it's really unplayable,

[stark creek]

Sorry you're struggling dude :c

[shy helm]

the faction with the most progress towards it will permanently be commemorated in the anomly once the expedition is over/core is finished

[chrome kestrel]

The only frustrating parts was people building bases on swarm crash sites

[velvet silo]

Finished for me, i don't play anymore at this expedition just wiat the core are finish and finish this expedition

[shy helm]

use quick menu to report, they disappear

[chrome kestrel]

But reporting the base did make it disappear

[stark creek]

I had some lag but that was solved with turning multiplayer off

[chrome kestrel]

Yeah did that

[stark creek]

Thankfully I started before the bases became an issue

[chrome kestrel]

I still hope them the worst

[shy helm]

couldve done the same but i had to go to sleep right when it released

[velvet silo]

I wait a patch maybe

[late burrow]

How are people getting the suit early

[stark creek]

Save editing

[chrome kestrel]

Notepad

[late burrow]

Did an editor update or something

[velvet silo]

With software

[chrome kestrel]

Editing

I believe

[shy helm]

debating getting my preferred ship in this way tbh lol

[stark creek]

Just wait until you're finished phase 1

[olive star]

With some computer knowledge, will and a notepad

[tight grotto]

What should I bring with me?

Maybe something to sell for money and nanites

[stark creek]

Warp fuel, stuff to sell

[shy helm]

nothing tbh, everything you'll need you'll get before the anamoly imo

[stark creek]

You do get a lot of free stuff

[chrome kestrel]

I stored the basics

[shy helm]

not to mention there's the duping method soooo -shrug-

[dreamy bolt]

Just took apart my first Swarmer... the hell are these things? lol

[chrome kestrel]

1k ferrite dust wire looms that stuff

[stark creek]

Space bugs! But ✨metal✨

[shy helm]

and spOoOoOoOoky

[stark creek]

I think they're kinda cute

Wanna put em in my pocket

[dreamy bolt]

It worked backwards, the more I took it apart, the less I understood it. xD

[shy helm]

they remind me of interceptor ships

[stark creek]

Makes sense

[tight grotto]

What if griefers just enter creative and kill me from there

No way for me to kill them

[stark creek]

If they were teeny tiny I'd put em in a jar n put it on my windowsill
10/10

[stark creek]

Turn off multiplayer

[dreamy bolt]

Since you can gravitino the parts... can you throw these parts into the recyclers? lol

[stark creek]

Also you can turn off pvp

[tight grotto]

Oh shit

[chrome kestrel]

Welp time to do 3 swarm missions a day and spend the rest of my time playing modded Skyrim

Until the core is done

[stark creek]

Genuine question, no hate
Do people not check the settings of a game before starting it? I guess cause I need subtitles and accessibility stuff I always have to but

[topaz spruce]

fully decking out a Roamer in the meantime because.... time

[shy helm]

i think they refresh every 2-4hrs???? would need confirmation bc mine had a cooldown of 2hrs

[stark creek]

Godspeed

[chrome kestrel]

Yeah but I only have like 3 hours of free time each day that I play games

[shy helm]

ahhhh, fair

[stark creek]

A terrible fate

Limited game time

[chrome kestrel]

Indeed

[stark creek]

I worked from home all day and played this

[chrome kestrel]

College is a pain

[topaz spruce]

good thing it'll last 8 weeks. you can squeeze it in slowly

[forest oak]

I'm having trouble finishing the Purge mission. I can't seem to get the last piece it says is deep inside the drone housing. I've done it 4 times now and I get the fins on the outside, the bit in the middle but there is a red icon deep inside that I just cant get

[stark creek]

Go to the front!

It's probably the eye

[glacial pelican]

my expedition restarted

[chrome kestrel]

When in doubt go to the front!

Otherwise it's glitched

[chrome kestrel]

Intended

[stark creek]

Yes that will happen at a certain point

[chrome kestrel]

Just play the game

[glacial pelican]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

[stark creek]

Congrats, you died, but just a little. Walk it off

[glacial pelican]

ill wait to do this later

and try it again with bf

[stark creek]

Good luck!

Just make sure it saved

[chrome kestrel]

Just come back to life like Shepard easy

[stark creek]

Hehehe

[chrome kestrel]

Just shrug it off

[glacial pelican]

an oportunity

[stark creek]

With some rad scars

[glacial pelican]

to see if my bf and i can be on the same team

[stark creek]

You can still help each other out if you're not

[chrome kestrel]

And a hot lady telling you need to save the universe or some shi

[stark creek]

Hahaha

[earnest gale]

but I already ran the backup on the database yesterday.

[glacial pelican]

i know

but being on the same team makes it better

[stark creek]

Okke just making sure!

[glacial pelican]

so ill wait

[stark creek]

It does!

[glacial pelican]

im going to play my farming game till he is to that point

[stark creek]

I apologize if I seem man-splainy I guess 😅 I'm a yapper

Have fun!

[glacial pelican]

nah thats oke

[stark creek]

I should go to sleep soon, tis 3:30

[forest oak]

It was the eye!! Thank you guys!

[stark creek]

Gotta wake up to give a lizard meds at 10

[glacial pelican]

one of my biggest EWWW ia that u cant choose the team, and even by using the same answers, u are not garanteed to be on the same team

[stark creek]

Glad it worked!

Yeah it's sad

I keep asking my husband to join me but he's too busy making minifigs

I just wanna play the expedition with friends, is that so bad

[glacial pelican]

peak

[karmic plover]

based

[forest oak]

Yeah, they are making it even teams so people dont all go to the one team

[glacial pelican]

let him make more

[stark creek]

Yeah I feel like no one would've gone to sage if they didn't force it

[glacial pelican]

wich makes sense but kills the fun of playing it with friends

[stark creek]

Yeah :c

[glacial pelican]

i was betwen sage and royal

cool flag

[stark creek]

I feel like it was a weird time to roll out this team thing though

[glacial pelican]

yeah

also sucks that u cant copy your ship to the expedition

[stark creek]

Why are we sabotaging each other during a war against the Reapers– sorry. Glass swarm or whatever

I knowww I miss my baby

[glacial pelican]

but at least i found a sentinel!

[stark creek]

Oh nice!

[glacial pelican]

i still think is the worst expedition start even

even worse than the truck ones

[earnest gale]

it's opening the gates of AQ all over again

[stark creek]

I haven't done the other expeditions, I'm very sad

[glacial pelican]

my bf and started on vc, did the same questions, got different teams, we spawned on different planets

[stark creek]

I never had functioning wifi until about a year ago

[glacial pelican]

and we saw eachother like once

[glacial pelican]

i feel you brother

[stark creek]

Wait you can end up on another planet?? I thought there was only one option

Wild

[glacial pelican]

i mean

it was the same planet

BUT

we were on polar oposites of the planet

[forest oak]

OMG the Swarm activities are time gated!!!🤦‍♂️ 😡

[stark creek]

Ohhh you said spawned on different planets

[stark creek]

They are sadly

[glacial pelican]

it took me to fix the ship, fly out of the planet, go back and then we could see eachother

[stark creek]

Ahh

[glacial pelican]

so far away that it basically was that

[stark creek]

I see I see

[dim robin]

That's odd, everyone should spawn on the same spot I think

[fair iris]

man... just had to report some bases, which stood directly on top of swarm wrecks, come on

[stark creek]

Yup

[glacial pelican]

we thought it was on a different plannet until we got to space, it was that far

[glacial pelican]

damm

[stark creek]

Don't you just love people

[glacial pelican]

supposed to

so, i couldnt join my bf team, we played appart from eachother, the ship we got is ugggggggggggggly

and he got tired so he went to sleep

[dim robin]

all it takes is a few people to ruin the expedition for everyone

[forest oak]

OMG 30mins to wait!!

[glacial pelican]

and i died so now i have to wait for him to catch up to me

[glacial pelican]

yeah

[stark creek]

Truly. Did see some people quit from it in here

[glacial pelican]

my first expedition ever, 50 bases at spawn

[velvet silo]

It will be not named the swarms, but "the worth update"

[dim robin]

Honestly, I'd like this expedition wayyy more if I could copy my main save's corvette. I was planning to make it very team themed

[noble cobalt]

guys hows the progress going? when do u think we will unlock the new armor?

[stark creek]

Hold on sorry there's a blacephalon and a stakataka in this server? Wild

[dim robin]

I wish there was a toggle to disable player bases, like the toggle to disable multiplayer

[stark creek]

I guess it makes sense the ultra beasts are in space though...

[stark creek]

If only

[noble cobalt]

I mean we are from ultra SPACE so why not

[glacial pelican]

the idea is amazing the execution not so much

[solemn bane]

You can on PC with a workaround: #nms-expedition message

[dim robin]

exactly my thoughts

[fair iris]

especially near quest stuff, there should be at least a bubble around that

[stark creek]

Also progress is still slow

[forest oak]

I report them if they are preventing me from accessing the drones. They disappear once you do that.

[glacial pelican]

for example, your team being random kind of undermines the experience

[velvet silo]

The execution is very bad, so bug

[inland mango]

What’s the percentage rn?

[glacial pelican]

if you cant choose your team, do your choices really matter?

[noble cobalt]

i just wish the cool epic space fights will be added to the main game later on

[stark creek]

Uhh like only 1 or 2 percent

[dim robin]

Thanks man, I appreciate it

[inland mango]

Holy man.

[stark creek]

I closed my game, someone else might have a concrete answer

[dim robin]

yup.

[glacial pelican]

idk, i wont use it tho, maybe my bf will like it

[solemn bane]

I doubt the teams, choices or numbers matter/are real

[velvet silo]

So unplayable, fuck, hello game can't have good q/a testor, it will not accept that

[dim robin]

exactly

[noble cobalt]

cool

[glacial pelican]

yeah but then, why make it team vs team

if you cant really chooe

[noble cobalt]

i only experienced one bug this expedition

[chilly latch]

Has progress happened yet

for tthe exped

[inland mango]

On top of that imo it’s literally useless

[chilly latch]

nope

[solemn bane]

Same reason people believe in political parties. It's fun.

[earnest aurora]

Motivation for a month long daily grind, it must be...

[glacial pelican]

🤔

[dim robin]

if you could choose I feel like everyone would pick one specific team and destroy the rest

[keen musk]

its supposed to be serious and daunting and my steam name killed all the tension 😭

[dim robin]

there were people in #nms-spoilers planning to pick specifically weavers

[stark creek]

He's ordering taco bell

[solemn bane]

I assume they will keep it even to keep people motivated to play more.

[noble cobalt]

i got the green team and i dont mind

[glacial pelican]

i feel the team thats with most players could get locket out or the loosing one have a bit of a buff

[glacial pelican]

got the blue one alongside with a friend, bf got green

[stark creek]

As long as the winners don't get anything too cool I don't really mind

But I certainly don't understand why they rolled out teams NOW when we're meant to be all fighting the same guys

[dim robin]

I suppose. I think that would still make it feel like you had little choice

[noble cobalt]

i dont think the winners will get anything super exclusive, maybe like a banner in the anomaly and thats it

[glacial pelican]

the best part is to see different people from different teams making a wait line on the anomaly to not look ugly af

[dim robin]

whoops, forgot to reply

[glacial pelican]

but u dont?

[dim robin]

I meant to reply to your message

[glacial pelican]

yeah cuz that would lock people out that couldnt choose a team

[glacial pelican]

ohhhhhhh

[modest kestrel]

any things recommended to bring to the expedition outside the usual stuff?

[earnest aurora]

i'd say not to look like Singular Gleam, but ugly AF will do as well 😄

[stark creek]

And then why are we sabotaging each other, cause when you sabotage it takes points from the other teams
We're supposed to be fighting the same guyyy
Enemy of my enemy and all that

[noble cobalt]

refiner, starship upgrade, warp fuel

chromatic metal

[glacial pelican]

get chormatic metal, tech stuff like wiring looms, money, tech for your suit or ship or multitool

and rare materials

[dim robin]

mainly just generic resources

[modest kestrel]

what starship upgrade?

[forest oak]

The problem is there is nothing to do while you wait 30mins for the next round of missions.... boring
