[keen zephyr]

3% the first day, 5% so far on day 2

[white grove]

it really doesnt matter, even in single player, the whole drone is taken apart already. Its no different. also, very difficult to take on the sentinals by yourself

[icy hazel]

Did you claim the milestone rewards? They give upgrades that help you live. If you have and still are struggling, learn to use the shield or dodge

[rigid flare]

So we just have to spam missions until the portal is constructed?

[remote thunder]

i've not come across broken sites with multiplayer disabled - i'd suggest first warping away from expedition route like 1000LY away (do multiple warps if needed), then summon anomaly and run missions

[remote thunder]

until prismatic core is rebuilt, so that we can complete and claim countermeasures milestone, yes

[rigid flare]

Cool, such a shame I got assigned to sage and were last 😭

[remote thunder]

up to 3 missions every 8h real time, refreshes at 9am/7pm/1am GMT

[rigid flare]

Very cool exp though, super hell divers vibes

[remote thunder]

liquidators (exp14) was another one with such similar vibes

[lunar lake]

Bro it’s bean like four days how is xbox still not part of the expidition yet

[remote thunder]

hopefully this week

[icy hazel]

Microsoft doesn’t work weekends

[remote thunder]

hg doesnt work sundays either afaik

😄

sometimes though, they might

[icy hazel]

I’m curious what they check for, also do you think the approval gets more delayed with all the minor patches hg pushed to bug fix?

[lunar lake]

Also other than the expidition what did the update add

[white grove]

ok, thanks

[elfin dove]

should I play this expedition online and endure the lag or play solo?

what do you guys recommend?

[icy hazel]

This one id turn multiplayer off for most of it, at least for now

[elfin dove]

Lag on expeditions is a common issue isn't it?

Last expedition was the same and I had to do it solo

[topaz spruce]

sitting on the dock by the bay, waiting for reset time to come my way....

[icy hazel]

Yea it’s partly that, also trolls building bases on objectives and one mission type near impossible in multi due to 100s of sentinels around it

[lament basin]

whats the % on construction now

[elfin dove]

damn, so that's why there are so many random ass buildings

if I play solo, do I contribute or anything?

damn royals catching up to weavers

[elfin dove]

oh that's great imma switch multiplayer off then for the time being

[icy hazel]

It’s never been that far off

[elfin dove]

also i got weaver
this is so cool, i didnt expect a questionnaire at the beginning of the save

so we have like 3 houses

[lament basin]

weaver was quite a bit ahead when i was on yesterday

[remote thunder]

i'm guessing overall stability, performance, connectivity, some kind of benchmark - but i also guess that HG wont push an update to them if they reckon it's safer to just continue bundling more fixes into a larger patch

[lament basin]

not insanely so but a decent lead

[icy hazel]

Yea I get ya, but it’s still very much anyone’s game to win

[topaz spruce]

anyone else build a non-troll base just to pass the time between resets?

i'm glad the bot here is good at nuking spam on sight LUL

[icy hazel]

If I had started the expedition from my main, I’d invest more time into doing stuff in expedition since money/nanites would still make the time worth

[split vine]

looking forwards to everyone on xbox and switch joining sage

[icy hazel]

Sage does need a slight influx

Royals and weavers are even now pretty much

[remote thunder]

i've seen some players around building growing bulb and even frost crystal farms

[wraith junco]

Faction is predefined. But i think sages will get a boost with xbox release

[topaz spruce]

i'm just slowly adding automatic fish traps for nanites

toss the B-class and better back, cook the C-Class for units since the stew is like 50K each and it's easy to make

[lunar lake]

Are weavers based off spiders or is that just the name

[rapid spindle]

You could give the stew to Cronus for a random amount of nanites depending on how they grade it

[wet jay]

i feel like weavers were and still are ahead- from day 1, which kinda sucks, as the royals and sages have to hope for the right influx of players

[icy hazel]

weavers started in third for most of day 1

[wet jay]

the fact that sabotage missions only have -1's makes them outright undesireable- i would add a +2 to one's own group.

[lunar lake]

That’s because of one team is ahead and both teams sabotage it means it won’t be over the top minusing

[rapid flicker]

Weavers were 5k ahead last i checked yesterday. How about now?

[icy hazel]

about the same still

[lament basin]

damn near tied with royals

[proven crow]

am i missing something? just started the expedition and it wants me to get glass and chromatic metal, but i can't place a refiner anywhere and there's no frost crystal on my planet...

[wraith junco]

Maybe should add this info to tier command

[icy hazel]

silicate powder makes glass

[proven crow]

need these just to fix the ship btw

[wraith junco]

Refine Silicate powder

[icy hazel]

also just try to move away from bases, or try and place it at your ship

[proven crow]

i guess my game was just bugging? it wouldn't let me place a refinery anywhere before

[remote thunder]

hmm, not sure. they might have wanted it to be really short. this info is in the top pinned post atm. i'll forward the suggestion, thanks

[white grove]

why are we getting walker brains?

[proven crow]

think i was a clear 400 meters from any other base, but i got it down back at the ship

ty yall

[wraith junco]

Loot is loot

Needed for few technologies

[tepid badger]

I got it to make a conflict scanner, so that I could find pirate systems, so that I could buy black market tech/arms, so that I could sell them and make nanites. A long process, but that's how I got 150k nanites to upgrade my ship and multi-tool to S class

[icy hazel]

didnt we get a conflict scanner from milestone rewards?

or was that the scan prevention one

[tepid badger]

yeah it was a scan prevention thingy

[topaz spruce]

cargo deflector

[icy hazel]

gotcha, then yea wasabe has the right idea for farming

[tepid badger]

"Scan prevention thingy" sounds better 😂

[kind jasper]

so should i get a positron ejector for my ship

[tepid badger]

Right now the swarm ships are super easy to kill so not really needed. But maybe in later stages of the expedition we will want better ship weapons?

[kind jasper]

or is there something better for fighting the swarm

[paper oracle]

Dang I feel like the only royal lol

[tepid badger]

idk, I got a infra-knife and fully upgraded it in case we need it later

[topaz spruce]

the regular photon cannon right now is fine

[kind jasper]

like fighting the swarm itself maybe (shard of glass or whatecer its called)

[tepid badger]

yeah that's what I was thinking

[topaz spruce]

the Hive of Glass...we don't know yet since we can't revenge it just yet

[icy hazel]

infra needs you to be pretty accurate, so bigger projectiles is easier for clearing if youre just auto aiming

[kind jasper]

i have to go get an s class ship still and set up my farms for trade goods lol

[tepid badger]

If we do fight the hive of glass though, it's pretty big so don't need to aim 😁

[kind jasper]

the laser emitters tho

[topaz spruce]

i'm mad there's a hard limit of 3 auto fish traps per planet >.<

[kind jasper]

like when u have to protect the atlas station

[tepid badger]

someone posted a planet from the quest line that has A-class sentinals. You could go for that and upgrade to S class for 50k nanites

[icy hazel]

is it possible to do the old trick where you could place more structures past the cap, idk if its still possible

[topaz spruce]

i stumbled onto an Exotic Royal ship but i can't remember which system i saw it in

[tepid badger]

oh that's even better, straight S class without needing to upgrade

[wintry void]

The only ship a true ROYAL should have. A red royal exotic (ship not found in tagged system)

[topaz spruce]

i didn't bother to remember cause i'm using Starborn Runner

[wintry void]

there is a blue royal in start system

[tepid badger]

Don't all systems contain a possible exotic though? I think you would just have to be patient at a trade station

[remote thunder]

yep, all inhabited, same drop chance

[tepid badger]

I'm Sage team so I need a green one 😁

[topaz spruce]

but yeah if y'all want S-Class there's exotics available everywhere if you don't mind flying a mosquito

although that's kind of ... humorous. Hive Drones vs Mosquito

[wintry void]

I might as well upgrade the exotic ships gear, something to do between the timed missions

[topaz spruce]

another pleasant hour long drive in my Colossus, picked up another almost 300 radiant shards and 6000 atlantideum for nanites, along with the 21 inverted mirrors. gotta love it.

[split vine]

nice

[topaz spruce]

and the 2 echo locators so on top of that 50 million units scrapping the 2 ships

[split vine]

ive been scrapping interceptors aswell cleared 100 mill credits which has made things quite comfy now

[kind jasper]

so its probably better to scrap ships than try to go for the fusioj ignitor stuff?

[topaz spruce]

i just like driving now cause the excavator mod literally just dumps almost everything you run over into the colossus. so all those atlantideum crystals just store up

[split vine]

yep ive spent nanites on the front bucket just found a recycling center so im going to start doing the same soon

[stiff orbit]

what to do while waiting for new hive missions in the expedition?

[wintry void]

hehe I just made some food, scanned some animals and made 200mill in 10min

[kind jasper]

wait how much is food worth

[split vine]

im cooking a roast dinner if that helps

[topaz spruce]

farm nanites and units. play with base building. drive around in a colossus like i do scooping up money

[stiff orbit]

soo basically just normal save stuff 😔

[kind jasper]

so basically play it like main gam

[topaz spruce]

if you cook the right food, hundreds of nanites each to Cronus in the anomaly or literal millions in units. on my main save i have a farm in my Freighter i can cook 400 herbal crunchies that average 25 million units

if you have a planet base where you can farm milk & eggs from creatures then you can make ice creams and pies that sell for even more (does require you hang around your base though)

[wintry void]

I made Nectar Islands

6000% buff for scanning animals

[topaz spruce]

or you can simple it and put down the auto fish catchers and make seafood stews that sell for 50K each for easy cooking chain

[fossil walrus]

wish granted 🙂

[kind jasper]

i never messed around with cooking so i didnt realize you could get money and nanites from it 😭

[topaz spruce]

yup... if you cook good food, Cronus can award hundres of nanites per item. downside is you gotta give them to him one at a time. but it adds up.

[kind jasper]

also by excavation mod do u mean the excavation blade (for colossus)

[topaz spruce]

same with fishing.... you can make decent nanites throwing the fish back into the water but you gotta do it one at a time.

[topaz spruce]

yeah

[kind jasper]

wait you get nanites for returning them?

i have the small auto traps set up

[topaz spruce]

yep, just have to be standing in water (so you float) and release them from your inventory one at a time... if you do 60 you actually get a new helmet too

[signal night]

So we just wait till the core gets completed?

[livid pecan]

Any fragment discord sever ihave no idea abt?

[wraith junco]

Cool

[livid pecan]

Yes

[kind jasper]

is it worth it to get a royal ship inside the expedition

[wintry void]

not really, unless you find one and have money to get one, a ships a ship

[tepid badger]

Not now, since the swarm ships are easy. But maybe when the next part of the expedition opens up? Like maybe we'll have to fight the hive ship?

[wintry void]

alot of people will find a sentinel ship, simply cause of the better base warp range

[kind jasper]

i prob will just to be safe.

[topaz spruce]

well if you don't have one in your main save it'll be a nice transfer.

[kind jasper]

i just got my first today

[topaz spruce]

Sentinel Ships are wholesale right now cause of how easy it is to get echo locators. haha

[analog ferry]

Anyone know any coords to a blue sentinel ship, that feels... appropriate for Weavers

Does anyone have glyphs to one of the expedition planets

i went way off route and cant get back

why not use space station teleporter

[versed tree]

because its all greyed out

i did not visit the first systems space station

it does not show up in recents

They are in order of last visited first

So just go to the last station on the list

Go to the annomaly

[icy hazel]

theyre probably closer to the expedition area anyway tbh

[versed tree]

Gonna try this

[signal heath]

I can't enter Atlas station, is there a workaround?

[solemn bane]

I saw someone else mention it wouldn't open for them, but I didn't see if they fixed it. I would try disabling multiplayer in the network settings, restarting the game completely, and land on a planet then fly back to it. One of those may work.

i was hoping not to have to disable mp because i'm playing the exp together with my partner but we can try it temporarily

[crisp linden]

This expedition is a slogg man this shit is annoying way too long I was expecting like epic space battles but this is just 6 minute missions every 8 hours

[icy hazel]

take missions from anamoly directly so it warps you to the system for next time, also how did you do this to begin with lol

[versed tree]

Go to anomaly
Do weekend QS mission
Return to anomaly
Anomaly no bring back to expedition system

But whoever built "MAEFO EXPEDITION 21 R", you are my savior

i managed to return

[icy hazel]

you did a qs in the expedition?

[compact rivet]

is it on Xbox yet?

[uncut vapor]

You're the coolest person I've met today

[versed tree]

yes

[icy hazel]

how, the nexus is replaced

[lusty slate]

Xbox and Switch are still waiting

[versed tree]

for me its not yet

maybe it changes after a certain mission is completed

[compact rivet]

ok thanks

[icy hazel]

probably does

[versed tree]

but i wanted to claim the starborn runner before diving deep into the expedition and thought claiming it needed QS

so i did the nexus mission only to find out its nanites

[lusty slate]

I'm in the same boat, I get it. Unfortunately, we can't make Nintendo or Microsoft go any faster.

[compact rivet]

yup ik im just checking in usual if its not Sunday then next Wednesday or Friday

[icy hazel]

ive not seen microsoft push a patch on weekends personally

[lusty slate]

For Microsoft? Cool. Nintendo usually does their update drops on Tuesday and Thursday. Never the weekend though.

[solemn bane]

Yep:

  "SwarmMonumentShowWhenMissionComplete": "^S22_GLASS"

[vernal mesa]

are we deaduzz rn

[solemn bane]

And if you really want to do QS missions, you can hack the expedition config and go offline. Change "SwarmMonumentActive": true, to "SwarmMonumentActive": false,

[icy hazel]

report base and warp in and out, should be clear

[lusty slate]

I wonder what's changed lately at Microsoft. Xbox drops are consistently delayed now. They didn't used to be.

[vernal mesa]

thanks bro

there are 15 bases on top of eachother

[silk summit]

Ok I must be missing something, why are players doing the above pictured? It doesn't make any sense. Are they mentally handicapped (Can't say the R word anymore)

[solemn bane]

I hear it was crossplay that gummed up the works. Maybe needing to validate on xbox, pc, and xbox/pc. And/or people just keep screwing up the crossplay code.

[icy hazel]

theyre griefing, just report all bases in area then warp in and out, should be cleared so you can do mission

[solemn bane]

Are you having to warp before the bases vanish for you?

[silk summit]

Thats what I mean. It is easily remedied by that so it makes no sense to keep doing it.

[icy hazel]

thats what ive seen others here say

[solemn bane]

Weird

[vernal mesa]

take a gander at the multiplayer situation

i hear base computers turning on if you listen hard enough

[icy hazel]

yea thats why we gotta play with it off

[wicked meadow]

I wish they would fix the Quest "Restore the Sweeper" I can never fininsh it because it keeps resetting back to 0/4 everytime I get to the next one.

[icy hazel]

walk to all of them, make sure the terrain manipulator is always out

[solemn bane]

Don't get in your ship/vehicle, don't change weapons

[lusty slate]

(Yet another expedition where being on Switch 1 with no mp to shut off is actually a feature.... 😛 )

[maiden ferry]

i started the expedition, but i dont have the stuff i took with me. will i get that later? (startet through anomaly)

[silk summit]

lol. maybe I should fire up my switch then.

[solemn bane]

Yep, it's in the terminal

[lusty slate]

You can retrieve it from the terminal once you get access to the Anomaly

[maiden ferry]

ah ok thank u guys

[lusty slate]

No matter which method you choose to start, you always have to play at least the first phase from scratch.

[wicked meadow]

I never change the the Multi-tool to anything other than terrain manipulator. I do use a vehicle because some are far away and I do not realy want to walk that far. So is it the vehicle that is doing it.

They realy need to fix that.

[icy hazel]

It is

Unfortunately you just gotta walk all of them

[lusty slate]

Almost every expedition these days: "Ugh, griefers. Shutting mp off..."

Me: (playing the expedition in peace on Switch 1 with no mp settings to worry about) That's rough, buddy.

I mean, Switch 1 definitely has its flaws. But that's not one of them.

[solemn bane]

Switch got it before xbox? lol, sad

[lilac wave]

anyway to get the swarmer components to respawn? im at 6/8 and i dont want to abandon it

[swift crane]

Ok, weird, my task completed itself as soon as I landed on the planet

[wet jay]

what's the point of the scoreboard, if it doesn't properly display who's actually contributing the most?

[icy hazel]

Look at it closely till you see the red markers, some are deep in the center, also try moving others you’ve pulled already around, sometimes it doesn’t count for some reason

[icy hazel]

It does?

[wet jay]

here on the progress bar it seams that the royals are ahead.....

[woven stirrup]

What does the team that finishes with the highest score get?

[icy hazel]

That’s not the scoreboard

[lusty slate]

No, it hasn't. But that's happened to me in a lot of past expeditions. I get less bugs because of no mp.

[icy hazel]

Memorial in the anomaly

[lilac wave]

yea some are underground, but theres a player base preventing any digging...

[woven stirrup]

Memorial?

[wet jay]

yet, the scoreboard insists atht we (weavers are in the 1st place

[azure stream]

listening to project hail mary music while doing my missions

[icy hazel]

That is the scoreboard, the other you showed is just progress to core

but from how i see it (the mark on the bar) royals are ahead

The purge mission where you are planet side, is incredibly broken and theme park like. It is not do-able as EVERYBODY is trying to do the same thing, pull it apart. The numerous players all trying to do the same thing and there only one object. It makes this mission unplayable, unless you spend HOURS trying to capture the flag.

There are literal bots at the newest site and it was only open for approx 10 minutes. The location ALREADY has a base and a coliseum pit.

This is absolute garbage mission.

[hollow mason]

I cant get out of Permadeath and i been to the center 2 times

[nimble sage]

How to locate the fallen swarmer? I left it for later, now I don't remember which system.

[icy hazel]

set it as active mission, then follow the objective, it will either tell you where it is, or tell you to warp/teleport

[nimble sage]

It only tells me to use gravitino coil, no navigation aid whatsoever

[wraith junco]

Equip it

[nimble sage]

I was already at crash site but left, now I can't click that one

[wraith junco]

Maybe reload restore point

all contribute and can complete the expedition, just one gets deemed the most useful and memorialized

vr is so fun
Super hard to get used to
Still fun

[kind jasper]

that says 7.9 not 7.4

[icy hazel]

assuming its not time gated yes

[tepid grove]

Imma do my current set of missions in vr
See yall on the flip flop

wait do we gotta switch to expedition save from the anomaly

or can we do from menu

[icy hazel]

if youre playing on your main go to anomaly, if you do it from menu, it makes a whole new save

[tepid grove]

not main menu
Like pause menu where youd see like
last save / last restore point

but I shall go to anomaly thenp

[icy hazel]

pause menu does nothing for what you want

[tepid grove]

when you play in vr you get a good perspective of how MASSIVE everything is

[astral trout]

how are people getting the purge and etc things done? I see like 10+ people trying to rip apart one single swarmer at the same time, not to mention someone built a base around it, shouldnt there be like tons of them laying around?

[icy hazel]

turn off multiplayert

if a base is blocking you, report the base and then warp in/out, or reload game

[kind jasper]

i haven’t tried playing nms in vr since my first experience was so bad (i tried learning on vr before pc lol)

i would consider for this expedition tho

[icy hazel]

does vr players get seperated like permadeath players do?

[kind jasper]

how fun is permadeath

[icy hazel]

pretty similar, just the stakes of your save being gone make it more tense. though once you get any upgrades at all for defense, not even s, it eases up

[kind jasper]

tbf i have died once in my single player world iirc and i think it was bc i didnt understand the hp system yet

[icy hazel]

nms in itself is pretty casual, always a way out of dangerous scenarios, just need to be prepared which is pretty easy in itself after the first few planets

what was that

[uncut vapor]

has anyone managed to claim a settlement in the expedition yet? Every one I go to just says that the management position isn't available

[kind jasper]

probably tons of the close ones have been claimed

[uncut vapor]

normally a claimed one would indicate who it's been claimed though wouldn't it?

[manic anchor]

Sorry guys... weavers are the engineers of space. Joseph-Marie Jacquard, a French weaver, created in 1801 a system of punched cards to control patterns in fabrics — technology that influenced the first computers.😌 😌 😌

[tender tusk]

as far as i know corvettes are blocked; most likely settlements are as well so people don't get off track.

you might be able to get a freighter though

[manic anchor]

just facts😌 😌 😌 😂 😂 😂

[kind jasper]

thats a cool fact to know

[uncut vapor]

I checked that - there's flags in the expedition save files for blocking corvettes which I managed to turn off, but there's no flag obstruction settlement acquisition

[swift crane]

Finaly, Cliffside Weaver Base (Expedition Swarm) set up!

[manic anchor]

😂

[swift crane]

Yes, freighters are possible

[tepid grove]

Gravatino coil is still godawful to use in vr

It like
Doesn't work half the time

And you have to have the PERFECT angle for a CHANCE to grab sruff

[manic laurel]

Sage players are less in number 🤔

[tepid grove]

I physically CANNOT grab the last piece of the swarmer in vr

Even if I shove the coil in the part's face

Found the perfect angle that it wanted

[manic anchor]

Just as the weavers of the past created machines that changed the world, today we see programmers and AI designers as “new weavers,” intertwining data and algorithms into systems that shape our digital reality. The group of weavers in No Man’s Sky is, in a way, repeating this story: each player weaves their own thread into the cosmic fabric of the game, creating disputes and collaborations that resemble the old guilds of artisans.😌 🥰

[tender tusk]

yeah it's really finkcy as well for me without vr

[tepid grove]

Try it in vr
It'll make the Gravatino Coil in non vr look like a damn cakewalk

[sweet axle]

if that's the one at the bottom it's pretty annoying, I do the terrain manipulator around it, it doesn't really show the removed ground but it does remove it, so I blast around a bit then pull it out

[tepid grove]

Someone seems to have built a base around it without blocking it
even putting a couple landing pads

Made it not cost fuel to launch
Ty sm random person lol

[sweet axle]

be careful, they put holes around the ship, I fell through during fire storm and died

couldn't exit fast enough, the hole was very small

[manic anchor]

The other teams think we are competing, when in reality, we are just doing what we enjoy doing. Weaving things from here and there. Creating, making... inventing. Either they put in the effort or they will never catch up with us.😂

[manic laurel]

Someone was straight up killing players at the mission site.

[visual rapids]

you can't build a corvette in the expedition? or is it locked behind a milestone?

[icy hazel]

this is why we turn pvp off, and multi player

[icy hazel]

cant

[visual rapids]

lmao, and i wasted a couple hours farming parts on the starter planet 🥴

thanks

[keen zephyr]

Does anyone know what the mining/combat/etc percentages are on the new multitool?

[icy hazel]

16.8 damage, 0 mining 17.1 scan at s class, its a rifle

why not enjoy the pleasure of legitimate achievements and look for shortcuts🙄

[remote thunder]

someone was curious lol - and fwiw, i dont edit to cheat. usually only to get info, or when i need to test or help fix something. would take the fun out of the game if i did.

i've played every single expedition, every single rerun, never unlocked stuff in the qs shop without paying for it, never save edited quicksilver etc etc

[manic anchor]

👍

[remote thunder]

in short, i know how to exercise restraint 😄

[strong dagger]

any tips for what to bring with ?

[white grove]

i wouldnt even know how

[remote thunder]

oh, it's quite easy tbh

[sweet axle]

you can use save editor without saving, just to check stats, I did that for some interceptor ships, just wanted to see their real stats, you don't have to add things

[keen zephyr]

It is a single player game, mostly. play however you want. Thanks for looking those numbers up, I don't have an editor

[remote thunder]

check <#nms-expedition message> and <#nms-expedition message> (this last one, so basically you can go phase by phase and see what rewards you'll get for each milestone - for example, you dont need to bring hazmat gauntlet into exp22 because it's already a reward in phase 1)

[manic anchor]

👍

my postgraduate studies in NMS were arduous. 4k hours😂

[somber flicker]

its not out yet?

[icy hazel]

if you cant find it and it isnt out then wait, idk if it is or isnt

[swift crane]

It's pretty bad idea to make PvP on by default tbh

[lavish stream]

^

[sweet axle]

I don't understand why I can't use my trails in the expedition, it's even blocked at the companion, I want my chroma trail...

[swift crane]

Blocked at companion? All things should be accessible at the companion

[remote thunder]

btw - not sure if you knew this, but sharing anyway: what save editors show as maneuverability, that's actually agility, not the same thing. agility buff is applied to core maneuverability and boost maneuverability stat - and not always applied with the same ratio. e.g. fighters have a larger part of their agility applied to core maneuver, which is why the feel so agile when dogfighting. sentinels however, despite having such large agility buff, it's mostly applied to boost maneuverability, which isnt something we normally use when dogfighting and trying to lock on.

[sweet axle]

well, it's "already owned" but you can't use it, it's not in the tech options on ships

[swift crane]

Strange

[somber jolt]

wondering who have the idea to put the community goal on a "daily quest"

[sweet axle]

I only looked at damage, I already knew that maxed out engine is crazy good on interceptors, they are reeeealy fast, but exotics take them in terms of manoeuverability, they turn way easier even with lesser values

[signal igloo]

so, the tracking is not as good as a fighter? (i think I read that as)

[remote thunder]

yep yep

[keen zephyr]

hover and backup.

[remote thunder]

yeah

fighters, exotics, explorers, solar sails - all these have more core maneuver, and iirc that also influences auto follow

[signal igloo]

but only to the point of exact numbers the ship tracks well enough - just not perfect

[remote thunder]

in any case, there's ofc different strategies in combat and preferences too

[uncut vapor]

Update: Getting in my ship, closing the game, reopening the game, and getting out of my ship finally prompted the settler intereaction and battle, but again the settlement its asking me to claim control of still says not vacant 🙁

[signal igloo]

i can't break the habit of using beams for shield charge and protons for damage

[remote thunder]

havent tried - do you have some standing with that race? try to claim it with internet off (because of that "not vacant" message?)

[remote thunder]

i'm a big fan of that actually lol

[uncut vapor]

some standing yes. I'll try again with multiplayer of

wait just checked it's already off

[woeful forge]

so what am i suppose to do inbetween waiting for new missions?

[remote thunder]

not just multiplayer off, actually disconnected - settlement ownership is uploaded to servers, so if you're online, and didnt firewall block game/went offline on steam for example, game is online

[signal igloo]

I know the raw digits are higher with the knife but I live in applied damage thinking no so much numbers -

[sweet axle]

scan planets, good nanites farming, upgrade ship, get a freighter...

[icy hazel]

whatever you want, if you started your expedition from anomaly in your main save, everything basically will convert to units/nanites so youre still making progress/money, or just go and play your main/another game

One of the players here is right, you have to warp to the system in single player when it comes to taking the drone apart. Otherwise you end up getting there and its a big mess of players trying to do their own thing.

[lilac heart]

cant copy your ship over but can still get expedition ships

[coral hinge]

I can't complete the crashed swarmer mission

[remote thunder]

can you elaborate a little bit more on what happens?

[coral hinge]

I've been ripping this swarmer apart for the better part of an hour, and the quest won't conpleter

I swear I've torn it to studs

[remote thunder]

so how many pieces does it say you still need to pull? just the last one? do you have multiplayer disabled?

[coral hinge]

I'll disable it and try

[umbral forum]

Those wreck missions are so unbelievably terrible.

[high wing]

Yeah, the crashed swarmer on Seidi is useless to try to complete. There's a base there and it may be landscaped up too far, so that the dirt covers the task.

[flat pecan]

Is the Gravitino Coil broken? Nothing I do is doing anything

[remote thunder]

@coral hinge i'd even go as far as suggesting to warp away from expedition route a good 1000LY away, resummon anomaly, and then start a mission

[coral hinge]

Okay, now there's nothing

[high wing]

I don't know that I've ever seen an Expedition here that had so many trolls with base building, either. It's sad when you try to bring someone new to the game.... and they get this

[remote thunder]

hmm, nah, it's not - do you have multiplayer enabled atm? might be worth just disabling it, save+return to main menu, load save again and retry.

[flat pecan]

disabling multiplayer won't help if the tool is functionally useless

[remote thunder]

even though we can report other players bases to make them hide from us, a little restraint sometimes would be nice

[proven notch]

The tool is fine it’s multiplayer connection messing with the objective

[flat pecan]

Left-click, right-click, hold, press, spam...it doesn't matter, the Gravitino Coil is not even interacting with the swamer pieces

[remote thunder]

i played the entire expedition with mp disabled, and i never had a problem with it not working at swarmer sites- i mean, for example, can you pull on industrial waste?

[devout echo]

The coil is a little finicky in this exp in my opinion also ... but it does work ... eventually.

[high wing]

I'm not even whining. And to some extent, I guess it is what it is. Devs can't monitor everything. We can wait for trolls to get bored and leave.

[high wing]

It's laggy, so you need to make sure you have the highlighted target;.... then hold it for several seconds, then pulls.

[remote thunder]

hence, disable mp to get rid of that lagginess

[devout echo]

It's still laggy tho

[remote thunder]

it will take some more feedback to get swarmer to be as instant as industrial waste, i agree

but it's basically there already

it makes sense that it takes a second more or so to pull it out

they also need to look at the fact that sometimes detection doesn't work - i had to aim totally away from it to get grav coil to finally stir up

though i've only had to do it with the very last piece

[inland niche]

I know that the circle around the crosshairs becomes visible when pointing to a valid object to gravity grab

[remote thunder]

yeah, that too

[inland niche]

That tends to be easier to see than the aura

[signal igloo]

i got my mid day run done - go reaver rah rah - heh

[remote thunder]

i just look at the tool tbh, but yeah, that also works

[inland niche]

The reason I say this? I havent had a single issue with dismantling a drone

[signal igloo]

me either - well except when I have to report the correct base to see it

[inland niche]

I also refuse to do that quest in multiplayer

[signal igloo]

sad about the greed or trolliness of the genpop

[flat pecan]

had to report like 11 bases then relog

and disable mp

[daring briar]

was it the systemwith that planet lumum or something like that name ?

[inland niche]

Usually it doesnt matter because the chances of meeting anyone randomly in normal gameplay is incredibly low

[signal igloo]

It cycles around the minimap I think

[swift crane]

And then you're dead

[tough hatch]

This expedition is unplayable with the amount of griefers this time.. this is so disappointing.

[daring briar]

discoveries and catalog should have a search feature

[swift crane]

Pvp inside nms is a good idea, but only if it's turned off by default

[flat pecan]

Given that there's quadrillions of planets...supposedly...even with 1 million active players it'd still be 1 in a billion. And even then, they'd need to land in the same area on the planet as you

[signal igloo]

Nearly so

[tough hatch]

Someone put a roof over the Purge quest and now it's not able to be done. Along with all the junk strewn around.. It's so frustrating.

[signal igloo]

I wonder if you leave the area can you use local?

[swift crane]

You can do it - turn mp off and report the base, it should vanish

[devout echo]

quick menu ... scroll to the right and report the base.

[flat pecan]

On the bright side...hopefully HG learns from this and makes no-build zones/planets for future expeditions

[signal igloo]

Yeah reporting the base removes the build

[tough hatch]

I'll try that and hopefully I can do the quest..

[inland niche]

Ive started attempting missions in multiplayer just to see what its like, and yeah I definitely plan to keep multiplayer off when doing those missions

[high wing]

My advice for the rest of the Expedition is to leave the anomoly, travel to the quest system, stop off in the space station, turn OFF Multiplayer and also turn off PvP. At this point, even if you're in a group, the lag and the trolls and the quest task campers looking to grief aren't worth the group. Just get your task(s) done and get rewards.

[tough hatch]

How do I quick menu?

[flat pecan]

X on pc

by default

[swift crane]

Even without griefers, there's still lag or just too many players wanting to access the same thing making it difficult to access it

[signal igloo]

D pad dn

[opaque matrix]

I've got a question that might be dumb. Are we all collectively "stuck" on the countermeasures ("construct the prismatic core") quest? In other words will we complete "countermeasures", "Interface", "Glass to Glass" at the same time?

[tough hatch]

So.. I reported it and the blockage is STILL there because apparently there were 2 bases? I don't know. I keep trying to get rid of the blockage and the report doesn't work.

This is terrible.

[remote thunder]

check out <#nms-expedition message>

[swift crane]

For now we do missions to finish countermeasures (9% done at the moment), then the rest should unlock

I saw a short showing what looked like a dozen travelers and all the drones they created when you pick up your first salvage bit. Oh man 2fps

[swift crane]

Yes, that's why I turn mp off for salvage missions

[remote thunder]

suggestion: since you've already disabled multiplayer, make sure you've visited a space station (or drop and claim a base computer) in the expedition area at least (so you can return back if needed), then warp away 1k+ LY from expedition systems/galaxy area, then start another mission.

[violet notch]

I usually turn off multiplayer in expeditions first thing

[opaque matrix]

thanks!

[violet notch]

So many bugs

[tough hatch]

That is a good suggestion, thank you! This is genuinely just so frustrating.

[remote thunder]

i should say that even at that distance i still saw uploaded player bases, but had no trouble finding crashed swarmer sites that werent built over at. can always try to go a little bit further, change systems etc

[lilac heart]

they need to block people from making bases on expedition planets

[tough hatch]

Yeah, I apparently just got awful luck today with the kind of people who did this..

[remote thunder]

sorry to hear that, hopefully now you'll be able to do it

Ive heard theres a patch on experimental thats supposed to do something about that

Isn't that kind of the point of some of the expeditions?..

Improved the visual effects when dismantling fallen swarmers at crash sites.
Fixed an issue with swarmer crash sites in Exterminator missions.
these are what's on exp branch atm that i just skimmed over and figured would be the most relevant ones

[plush drift]

Unplayable at crash sites. Lags, freezes and base parts everywhere.

[strong dagger]

no pls not, visiting the crash site is the next step for me

[remote thunder]

personally, i feel that people are free to do as they want, as long as they're not making it more difficult for everyone else. i make a point to not build near shared objective locations/possibly shared objective locations, and certainly wont upload bases on top of them. at most, i'd upload a base >300u away, if not more

[remote thunder]

keep mp disabled, <#nms-expedition message> if needed, should be fine

[verbal lotus]

Hey 👋 if I was to give you guys name of my planet would you visit me,I really need help with base

[fast bobcat]

i have a question whats the point in using the gravitino Coil to pull of the drones parts ?

[swift crane]

I was looking at many different nms media recently and I see a lot of people saying that the hive update is great. I strongly dissagree. It's not an update, it's an Expedition. Not everyone can or want to do expeditions or just engage with multiplayer related things. Hg should focus on the whole community and whole game, not just multiplayer event that will happen once a year max. They should polish existing features instead

[swift crane]

Name won't tell anything, you can share the glyphs of your system (the symbols that appear in the bottom left corner in photo mode). Other players can use them to teleport to your system

[fast bobcat]

what retri said people cant help if they dont know where to go XD

i cant help i got my own base im working on

[devout echo]

It's kinda like doing research by dissection is the way I interpretted it.

[verbal lotus]

Ok 👌 thanks Im very new so I don't know

[fast bobcat]

huh thats kinda pointless i thought we could do som thing with the pieces we pulled off the thing

[swift crane]

Nope, they are just useless scrap

[devout echo]

Those are appearing in the main game for ppl ... so technically I guess you could get a vechile build a base, and drive them back to your base?

[kind jasper]

they cant be used to even scrap at one of those places?

[fast bobcat]

i had that thought they were just scrap's but evil XD

[swift crane]

Maybe you can scrap them in the furnace if you get colossus and transport tuem to recycling facility

[kind jasper]

i have a colossus

i might go try

i gotta check if i have the bucket upgrade

[verbal lotus]

Am I weird for wanting to use only uranium for my thrusters instead of crafting the fuel which takes longer

[kind jasper]

thats fair

[swift crane]

When I started playing I found a ton of uranium, that's what I used until I got upgrades that made refueling not essential

[verbal lotus]

Plus I heard some people say I'm cheating if I'm playing custom because I didn't earn most stuff.....I'm just having fun

[swift crane]

There's no cheating in this game tbh, everyone is playing as they want

It's a sandbox game after all

[pine thorn]

I got wall hacks and aimbot for the sentinels

Got all of my dailies done, now I can go back to my main save. 😭 Thank god.

hm

the one at seidi?

[coral hinge]

Still can't do the crashed swarmer quest

[knotty tangle]

Im probably going to roll solo, dont want to get shot.

[tepid badger]

did you turn off multiplayer?

[coral hinge]

Tried warping away, turning off multi, did a quest far away in the anomaly

It's just an empty crash site and it's telling me to pick up things that don't exist

[tepid badger]

abandon it and restart it. You are using the gravatino coil right?

[ashen phoenix]

question.... where should i get pilot signature?

[tepid badger]

you have to craft it

[coral hinge]

Nvm I forgot to pluck the face

[valid mesa]

I had that same issue. close and reopened the game and said completed.

[ashen phoenix]

i dont have the recipe thou?

[tepid badger]

just follow the quests and craft the 3 colored ball thingys and afterwards you will get the recipe/quest for it

[ashen phoenix]

oh dawn, now i need to search bulb and silver

[tepid badger]

yep, and copper to make into chromium

agreed. the only reason it was nice for this last purge was bc when i got there, there was a heat storm so it provided a safe haven for me, but it got in the way of the actual mission too

sabotage doesn't actually matter at all?

[wary crow]

Do not judge me for spamming G because while firing to ensure no weapon system is missed during an engagement. The swarm get a barage of beams, positrons, rockets, infra-knife, and cyclotron projectiles all within a 2-3 seconds span.

Never let them know your next move

[lilac heart]

ofc i had to get put in the group thats currently 3rd

[placid flame]

Whatever kills them quicker

[rapid flicker]

calculating each of the totals for purges and restores, not counting sabotages, it totals the team's score already

[lilac heart]

sages are obviously the coolest

[placid flame]

At loosing

[tender tusk]

I have a Expedition 22 theory and it goes like this: If you currently try to fight the Hive of Glass even with a Sentinel ship you shields and health will get wrecked, so maybe we build the Prismatic Core to call in our Corvette's to fight the Hive of Glass; but maybe not since the current end of Phase 3 objectives don't seem to mention corvettes at all

[lilac heart]

i dont see how corvettes would be much better at fighting it

[swift crane]

Nah, it will probably give us some sort of weapon or just "disable hive's shields" or something like that

[placid flame]

Corvettes are faster but their total shield strength is lower

[lilac heart]

how are corvettes faster

[placid flame]

Pulse drive is faster in base versions than fighters.

what a jip
did a mission from the space station as it gave 25 larvel cores and it didnt pay out at the hand in

[primal wagon]

Not sure if I’m the only one. But during some of the prismatic core missions, I noticed when you change your multitool from what it’s needed for at the mission, it resets the counter in the mission. I unearthed 8 swarm debris until I noticed that changing the multitool reset the counter in the missions.

[tender tusk]

i don't change multitools usually since my multitool has all the things i need for the missions

[primal wagon]

Took me two redos to realize it. I just swapped on the way to the next location to get some resources.

[split vine]

just swapping from terrain to mining will reset
