?
portal glyph set is unlocked via to crave the stars, which has to be done in anchor 2
i might go do it for fun for a bit. does anyone know if the reward generation is the same between survival and expedition-survival?
which rewards?
damaged machinery rewards
i'm not up-to-date on how consistent the rewards are between game modes. i know they fixed world gen being different, but things like sentinels and weather can still vary
afaik, yes, they will be the same
ok what resource did i have to mark again to find a paradise planet
nice one, i'll go looking for s-class's then!
in other words, damaged machinery drop table is the same for all game modes, afaik
i totally forgot
paraf or bulb
which galaxy is the expedition in?
euclid
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/uz3x63/psa_you_can_reroll_memory_fragments/ an interesting tp about memory fragments
oh nice, so I should just look for a crashed S class ship and pick it up after anchor point 2
i ran the whole exp with the starter ship
damn this would have been helpful earlier
I need SPACE!
@remote thunder golden vector is what I always use.
first, die. second, don't forget to move tech to the tech tab to free up some slots
i never claim prev unlocked rewards to complete an exp
yea that was my mistake
sell some stuff that u don’t need
Also if you've done expedition 3 you can hatch the horror egg to complete another milestone.
I did that but a lot are exocraft rewards which I don`t have yet
@remote thunder that's just dumb.
Only reason I'm using the starter ship is that it has launcher recharging. Otherwise I'd run out of launch fuel constantly.
uranium
what am i supposed to do with this
Can't find any yet. I'll get there.
no, it's a matter of personal choice, no wrong way to play the game if you enjoy it and aren't griefing others
https://bl.ocks.org/shirha/raw/e8caf3d1bad34e86ad36c2f85508b19a/ another good info post for expd.
finally found a good moon
@remote thunder you earned the right to use all previous rewards. If hg didn't want you to use it it wouldn't be available to claim. Kinda like they didn't want people unlocking everything in the anomaly so they upped the prices. 2500 nanites for an atlas pass v1 lol.
can anyone help me with this
Everyone can play how they want to. shrug
idk i m keeping it for now
i didnt use my previosu exp/twtich reward either
wanted a challenge
also im hardcore player anyway
so this exp was nice for me
I just use my cosmetics because I don't wanna be a gek :p
i usually do something like this, haven't had the time yet - but this has way too much info, lots of it kinda irrelevant
I'm ALWAYS a gek when I start expeditions
@jagged charm it being perma survival is a challenging enough for most people.
I haven't used on prev expds except one, and that for specific reasons. it's a deliberate choice I make in play which makes sense to me
become chungus
meh
my very first palythrough/blind/no discord help was on survival
best way to learn is to die
a lot
XD
I find it challenging enough
funny, I was thinking it doesn't have enough 😄 I want to know the three star resource on each world for example
Not even sure I'll finish it, to be honest
im farming data on my moon to unlock some parts
Next thing that should come is a living freighter. With a living space station to be able to upgrade your living ships. That would be epic.
but im using all my mods tho rn
as im already done
so my inventory
is well now normal like XD
all good really, and i don't have anything against other players that do make use of those past rewards to have an easier time. i just like the experience of an expedition save, the different progression path, never needed any other rewards to be able to complete all exps so far, i just prefer doing it with the gear i get from the new save.
anyone farming Polo objectives and want to team up?
i think most of people here are trying to survive Xd
@remote thunder seeing is how every single one of my expeditions have been perma death I'm not taking chances.
It makes me feel the rewards I got from it are more special. As people have stated every previous one hasn't been permadeath for them.
I’m so disappointed. I just finished all the first milestones or whatever and there was a countdown to the end of the loop and then I died at “4” during the countdown to 0
I don’t understand what happened but it doesn’t seem to have kept my progress like it says it would’ve
It wasn’t my first death
all expeditions apart of this one where on normal mode tho?
I mean it didn’t keep the memories or whatever
Good evening! I'm currently mid way through first iteration and I spent ages digging up tech to set up a base in a really nice location next to an oxygen farm, with solar panels and storage units etc. I don't fully understand what will happen at the end of iteration 1, but I assume it'll reset. If that's the case, would I theoretically be able to get back to that base in iteration 2 and access my storage?
Can u do expeditions in multiplayer or can u only do it solo
That's normal
How do i get my last reward I went through hell for It 😩
I thought it would move to iteration 2 but I’m on iteration 1 again
With no memories
Yup, that's normal
Check the pins. It's a possible bug
@winter lion did you delete your save?
Or did you reload it after dying?
I think it might be a bug cause it says I completed all the phases I got the banner and the decal but no frigate skin
I believe it's a known bug fixed in experimental
Hope they fix it soon
Just don't play in case you die 🙂
It will probably be pushed on monday
caus they updated internal and experimental today
Push to prod on a Friday afternoon, woot!
Its past work hours doe? I think they wil do it on monday
@unkempt plaza I'm well aware. But mine hasn't been.
unless they have scheduled push during the weekend..
Reloaded it after dying
What happens when I try to join the expedition section?
I’ll just watch a YouTube vide
Expedition is it's own game mode
Where players focus on completing challenges in order to get rewards
Bigger rewards are bound to your player account and can be redeemed on all saves
your base will remain and you can reclaim it if you die just by going there. if it's on the infestedplanet for that milestone, you'll get that milestone instantly upon visiting it too.
Both past and future ones
I went through the exp and the only starship weapon I got was the cyclo
🙃
omg, sweating bullets trying to work up the courage to eliminate 20 sentinels or whatever 😭
There is no player-vs-player competition, in fact - this expedition relies on cooperation more than any previous one
u could find distress signals and if u get lucky u get free blueprints
I did it by getting a map to a secure building, sitting inside the door and shooting sentinels outside
this is a known bug, patched in the experimental branch on steam, expect live Monday-Tuesday (with any luck) on all platforms
but ye i like grinding so
Thanks - it's actually on a random planet I found by jumping to a different system through a spacestation portal. So if I die, will it still be a jumpable option at space stations?
it's still your base
oh thats super clever!! thank you :D
if you're very concerned you can write down the system name, and jumps from a system in the expedition path
Yeah - I'm not so much worried about ownership, more if I'll ever be able to find it again if I die and get thrown into a random system 🙂 I appreciate the advice though, thank you!
if you manage to get a sentinel chart (either from Salvaged Glass or one of the black market packets), I think rushing a Nest (and shutting it down) counts towards it.
It did for me in the last expedition at least
Quick question: I just completed expedition 7 but it still wont let me claim the Leviathan Frigate. says i havent completed expedition 7
ok thank you. was thinking i must be missing a final step
went to buy an upgrade for my MT Scanner and they are HOW MUCH now!
thats because the devs want you to rely on the random rewards from completing each quest
Man, permadeath is hard
So no way to finish the exhibition?
i guess you can finish it but cant claim the final reward until the next patch
Dang
it does, and (tip) you can save-reload to repeat the process if you feel extra risk averse about it all, which is quite understandable
essentially you have finished. there's just a bug about claiming the expd reward, wait for the patch to go public.
We have confirmation that dying after completing phase 5 i.e. exiting the loop doesnt reset the progress
I thought we knew that from multiple people completing it
Mb then. Half a day ago it seemed unconfirmed here to me
the question someone posed was, if you get given the hermetic seal and then use the ||death at the end of the expedition to count for the iterate milestone|| does that a) work and b) avoid a reset
but I don't know of anyone who has tried that.
nothing changes until the experimental patch goes around!
I would not want to be that guinea pig!
But my guess would be no
same
I would do that test only after a normal completion and only if I had the energy for a whole separate run. some people do though
I suspect I'll have to do this one again, with my brother, but damn it was exhausting enough the first time.
Do we know yet if a core jump with this save counts for the perma achievement?
‘Twas I
it's felt kinda weird going through this because my main save is survival mode in a hostile galaxy
so i haven't exactly noticed a difference lol
well until you die, then you will definitely notice a difference!
I play survival (and perma) too, but I don't seek out the kind of hostile situations they deliberately put you in.
That minotaur was a godsend
patch not public yet
i think i got lucky and got the cloaking device pretty early on
maybe next week
I used the shield to great effect
hello, i've done an initial test run of zipping around to damaged machinery on the expedition starting planet. these are the modules i found and where i found them:
TWO S-CLASS MINING MODULES: +24.62, +173.94 // +22.41, +175.14
ONE A-CLASS MOVEMENT MODULE: -54.41, +141.49
FOUR (!!) S-CLASS UNDERWATER MODULES: +23.74, +174.70 // +21.69, +172.31 // -54.12, +141.20 // -53.30, +142.17
i honestly believe i'm cursed to only find underwater mods. i'd love to see the rng tables for this 😅
i definitely think going to these locations may be fruitful to starting players. it only requires launch fuel to get to place to place, which you can quickly make in abundance. i tried to explore two clusters of locations, so going on-foot is possible but ill-advised.
install the a-class movement and one or both s-class mining mods, and sell the rest: it'll go a long way to affording a decent shield or hyperdrive mod to get you through the expedition faster and safer!! if there's interest, i'm willing to keep going. this planet is full of exosuit upgrades and i've almost maxed my cargo inventory here...
deploy on a weekend? not a good idea. devs have real lives and families and household errands and all that crap too
Toe to toe with a walker and shot it to death with an unmodified pulse spitter
i just gotta get a blaze jav then i'm set
It was the shield
The walker doesn't use the plasma if it can shoot lasers at you
and it takes little breaks in between shooting so you have time to shoot it
it also doesn't use plasma if it's constantly stunlocked
It's true, but I didn't have a jav and certainly not the mod for it
this is amazing work! for my own purposes I'm more interested in doing that kindof collecting on a quieter world, without so many angry fauna 😄 maybe I'll check out Mezenus Utsu in the same system for example. but you should keep on if you think it could be useful! a reddit post w/ detiails too
I was also happy to learn that I could reload while my shield was up
I learned a lot during this expedition, which I think is what they always like
thats good to know
I hit reload and then popped my shield - I don't know if you can hit reload once it's already up
yeah, a more chill planet would definitely be easier to do this on!! i would like to find at least one shield mod on this starting planet, as i imagine that would prove a popular pick-up for most.
I would never have fought that thing if I'd looked at the reward milestone for shooting 20 sentinels 😂
but yeah, best of luck if you try it yourself. get your jetpack upgraded so you can zip about a decent amount, and don't forgo the airburst engine so you can fall off mountains without fear ☺️
yes they do
very nice
you can reget the 'anchor' mielstone just by going to thta base if you built one
also items you build on freighter remain (but not inventory)
it appears to be a deliberate choice
i wonder if an animal havester also harvest that special resource
dunno but I'll hear about it tomorrow. good night all!
sure
Derelicts are kinda busted for this expedition. Polo gives you a receiver for every 100 dust you give him, but you can get 500-1000 dust depending on the layout and disaster type
and you could die for 1 error XD
but yes
Baby strats. Also scatter blaster in case of infested derelicts
It does well in clearing out the swarmy bois
What do I do with the memory artifact?
Hey has anyone had any trouble getting to the 4th anchor world?
Getting to it, no. Landing on it... I don't want to talk about it. 😛
lol getting a scatter blaster. I spent my nanites getting a frozen hazard protection for the derelict instead. 😄
And you're better off not aggravating the the infestation
I keep getting looped back and forth between 2 systems and can't progress
Land somewhere and reload.
Which milestone is that
@hushed steeple good idea
Dat Moment you realize selling the walker brain was a horrible idea.
Mine too, did it in the 5th rdv system. It looks infested but the infestation things are actually just more dust
I think it’s the one where you have to study the loop
Why? Conflict scanner? Probably better off jumping around to find an outlaw system than spending nanites to get that far down the tree - unless you got the pattern from a downed ship ofc
There are a couple near the first system
There’s an outlaw system very close to the start system
I hit one on my expedition path
Haven't found a single outlaw system yet.
I skipped it because I got hyperdrive upgrades early.
So on my first Iteration I found it, but on this one.
The screenshot I posted above is an outlaw system
You just have to get back to the start system (Roland desk)
Just buy a multi-tool with scatter blaster pre-installed
Or you can be a baller and use plasma launcher
lol
Nah man, just did the whole expedition with a boltcaster
Couldn’t be bothered to hunt multitool
And rng wasn’t friendly
I found a B class rifle in a star system on the way iirc, it was bigger than the default one and looked nice
I think in one system the anomaly had an experimental, but I didn't use it because it had like 6 slots
Would someone be able to send a screenshot of the glyphs for the 4th anchor? I can't get past one of the systems.
How come? Shouldn't be an issue if you follow the path
is someone around agressive animals ? is my last milestone and im done with expedition
Though warning, for some reason 4th anchor just wants you dead, and you'll randomly take damage
Yeah totally. It's just weird. I've finished everything up until that point and can't get past one of the systems
can't find that now
so Ive died for the one milestone and my savegame was just deleted?
was on to many
I read comments saying the animal just has to be a predator
Not necessarily aggressive towards you
Not sure how true it is
You kind of start anew. Except if you built a base
well still didn't founded one , and i was searching for a while now
it isnt deleted
Your save isn't deleted though
It wants me to use the memory scanner thing on a certain planet in a star system but all the planets in that star system are undiscovered.....
ah ok got it now
@rose veldt are you able to go to Rowland Desk from a space station you're at?
It has to be the anchor point's planet
it said the game would restart not that I would have to load the save again
That's the first system you start on
Not sure what to do now to find that planet
Look for one that has the word "infested" in the description
found some great modules on the starter world, just fly to these co-ordinates and pick them up:
S-CLASS COLD: -37.90, +137.58
S-CLASS BOLTCASTER: -36.60, +135.93
A-CLASS STARSHIP SHIELD: -36.98, +135.85
A-CLASS SHIELD: -38.18, +136.31 (this is at an Observatory, at the attached small buildings. makes this a super-easy grab)
these will make the expedition much easier
The anchor point planets are always infested
Also, if the system wasn't discovered by HG it probably isn't the target
For a planet?
That’s what the issue is though: NONE of the planets in my current system are discovered
Was the SYSTEM discovered by HG
Ohhhh....hmmmm
If not, double check you were traveling the expedition route
yeah thanks .. got the planet 2 times wrong pff last one was the one 😄
now only the optional remains
Nice!!
I'm gonna try switching ships to see if it'll let me continue on to anchor 4. It's so weird that it won't let me get past a certain system.
Did you see if you could circumvent the blockage by going to a different star?
Some guy built a floor over the spawn point you get to after you finish the last mission of phase 5...
Bruh
You literally get stuck under it.
I'll see if I can find that base and report it later
report base
Yeah...I spawned there.
I will say, seeing all those communication stations warmed my heart a bunch
So. It's gone now. Still. Was a pain to get out in the first place.
Yeah. Sadly there are jerks who claim the area.
So you can't leave one yourself.
Which...Is a dick move.
I summoned my ship right at the edge to get out
Same.
Does anyone know whether the crazy nanite prices in the expedition will return to normal after you claim the final reward?
I feel like those important expedition points should be building-restricted
This is how I got out.
My exact thought.
Didn't someone say there was an infected planet somewhere along the expedition route? What system is that?
Every anchor point planet is infested
All anchor points
Oh
Shoutouts to anchor 4's system having me be fired at INSIDE THE SPACE STATION
Spooked the crap out of me
Honestly this expedition isn't as bad as some people have made it out to be. Only real threat is the crazy glitches like that. Everything else you can mitigate
Right.
From what I recall this is the first expedition with optional milestones
They forgot to factor that in for the final reward
Well. Tbf. It's very annoying to start from 0 again.
Besides that?
It's annoying but also makes you take less risks, and go in with plans more often
It's alright.
I enjoyed it
And I got to experience the pain of 1.0 inventory caps
It sucks to no end, I hate it
I get that...But there also is a certain boringness to always play it safe. You know what I mean?
Can't even cobalt crash without like a hauler
Yeah, but some milestones make you take risks
Like the whispering eggs or storm crystals
got an alien egg base :d
Parked my ship next to it and twirled my thumbs until it started to storm.
Wait. So that small ass inventory cap was intentional?
Yep
Dies
Survival mode has the same stack caps as the game had at launch
You know. I understand the argument that like...48 slots should be limited to classes like the Hauler...Gives it at least some use in the late game but...
This small for Solar Sails?
Like...I like that class the most.
Iirc the biggest benefit for solars gameplay-wise is the vesper sail tech, all other stats are average at best compared to others
The looks are great tho
Don't think you can have a solar ship look bad, unlike most other classes
yeah tried that with a mods, didnt like it XD
Looks at literally every hauler I ever saw.
I thought only those who attacked you counted as aggressive. Yet a passive one counted.
Haulers usually look okay but some combos can be kinda janky
:derpface:
Yeah, predators are the only factor turns out
So if they eat meat, yeet the pellet at it
Idk. I just don't like it when it like... That squigly stuff.
is doing the expedition worth it?
You managed to claim it?
Ive just finished but got that bug thing lol
I saw screenshots. You can claim it on experimental
but like is whatever you get at the end worth it?
Your expedition manager : "Sup' chief. That one new...fri...I mean...Thing...Just told me it went on a own expedition-"
It's a free S class frigate, and the usual expedition cosmetics
space whale
First living ship frugate too
I have a question though,now that im finished with it i can still help with the community goals right? But if i die do i have to redo it all again?
Living ships are trippy.
You can still help yeah
Just do infinite derelicts
5-10 mission clears and receivers per run
does it look cool cuz if it is then its worth it
Also...I'm wondering...
Sure.
X class has higher potential stats...
But...
The range is pretty...Wonky.
So isn't it technically a downgrade when your upgrades go from S to X?
The secret to the community milestones have been revealed!
https://twitter.com/cyberpunk2350/status/1530232566997045249?t=S1ckUVn4yo2cjGXZ09e9Jg&s=19
i will try it and see for myself i guess
up to 20 per day
L A M E
Why do I feel like this is a virus link.
Depends X Class can be the same as C or better than S its all about the RNG you get when you install the module upgrade
all links are sus
It's a twitter link
so there will be a new role for those who completed the expedition ?
Exactly. Hence why I'm kinda wondering. Because you trade reliable high grade upgrades into....Well. Luck of the draw. Which good highs. But pretty bad lows.
Does anyone know whether the crazy nanite prices in the expedition will return to normal after you claim the final reward?
Where you pay like 2.3k for some economy sensors?
Lets put it this way X Class upgrades can drive OCD folk NUTS!
Yeah and upgrades on the anomaly
it will turn into normal survival save
It's not! It's a link to a tweet from a data miner who found the information within the game files.
I can't post a screenshot, otherwise I would do that instead.
Fair enough.
Sorry.
Okay sweet. I got the bug and can't claim the frigate and everything is still expensive, hope they patch it soon cause I wanna keep using this save
Hoping we can complete the community thing because you get blueprint to craft random modules at cost of 2 wiring looms,50 silver and 100 pugneum i assume that'll change from c class upwards the further we get
No worries! Always best to be cautious. 😎
So what exactly gets carried over between deaths in expedition 7 (besides your appearance?)
Literally a milestone called “taking it with you” but the game doesn’t actually let you take your credits with you
I wish expedition unlocks would be attached to your account.
Not a clue bud i only died the required amount of times,think i had a lucky run lol
Rather than just your save.
So you can like...Buy your earned frigate on a different save with X amount of quicksilver.
I literally died in the first 10 sec of the expedition because I spawned next to a creature and then the game crashed to desktop
It does happen you just have to retrieve them
🇫
Where do you find oxygen in the beginning?
I completed the blighted.
New cape didn't appear in the shop.
the lower figures being produced by x-class upgrades were a bug apparantly
Mine it
That would be a bug
its been fixed in this latest update
From what I don’t see any anywhere
Locate it with your scan visor
Basically nothing. You do however keep your current player customization and your bases
for pc...consoles will have to wait
You also keep any daily progress on missions you submitted to Polo
Thaumium-9 pla....Exuse me. "Oxygen rich plants."
it was in the patch notes for the expedition update wasnt it?
which all systems already have
The patch is in experimental on Steam
Buy your oxygen. Much easier
For steam?yes...
Just OD on ion batteries and life support gels
Be close to your ship.
Run to it and chill in it and wait for your hazard prot to recharge.
Life support doesn’t though
Life support jelly is cheap
Stock up on di hydrogen before you leave or buy it
Just buy like 100 and it'll last you well through the expedition
And it can stack up to like 50 iirc
70
Need to fix my ship
muhahahah
Have you died once?
Also reminder that food is an option
Bread is OP and meaty chucks give health
The harvestable food can be emergency refills
Try not to roast your self lol
cant
Yeah
Condensed carbon crystals time
Or if you need I think I can still go back to the starting planet and give you a stack
If you have it claim the golden ship at the anomaly, its a nice upgrade to the one you get on the expedition
Plus phase beams make you basically invincible in ship combat lol
Mfw started with the blighted
😭
Hope they eventually give a way to replay expeditions
Am I like the only one who misses the old material and upgrade system? You know. That sigma, tau and theta stuff?
YO WAIT
@remote thunder hey, the pillar coordinates were great man. Thank you 👍
They have before so I'm sure they will again
They did a redo on all the expeditions
Especially anchor 4
You could tie playing past expeditions to the leviathan
I don’t need a leviathan badge, I need a “I survived anchor 4” badge
Real shit
im not gonna lie I might have did the harder one on that anchor ahead of time
They should give away blueprints for the advanced launch, hyperdrive and pulse systems after you have completed expedition 3. :troll;
"Hey random damage on the space station, die"
Anchor 5 would have been worse if someone hadn't built the convenient base on the sentinel tower
What a legend
I didn’t go to a sentinel pillar
Just killed all the waves of sentinels to shut them down
2 milestones in one
^
The part with the sentinels is easy with minotaur cannon
Lmao I cheesed the sentinels at a trade post. Just left one summoner alive and killed his goons
I had a weak exo suit I was flying around for an crash freighter and just happened to spot a piller during my search
I like combat. But. God. I hate the boltcaster rework.
Pulse splitter is where it's at
I’m a scatter blaster kinda guy
Neutron cannon is busted on derelict freighters though
Shotgun go brrr
I miss the days when boltcaster was full auto
;-; Nostalgic me is preventing me from using anything but bolt caster.
Recoil is pain though
Me too
And plasma launcher.
so when do the research quests ever disappear
I use mostly scatter blaster now
i only had scatter blaster and it did well for me
Full auto bolt caster was better. I refuse to use the plasma launcher after my stupid ai walked in front of me and got us both blasted by it
i delivered 100 somnel, and they didnt disappear and same with the other 2 quests
I have had bad experiences with plasma launcher
I have blown myself up many times
It a community optional milestone
Plasma launcher?
Which is why I no longer use it
You mean bouncy, deadly beach ball.
I’d like a game mode like this but not with everything costing 90 tech modules or 3000 manures

it just benefits people who are on the expedition for every time they die
Yeah the plasma launcher is a death trap
Great job 47. Now facepalm the target with a knife.
Ill facepalm you with aknife
I wish nms had knives. Preferably that wrist mounted one republic commando had
That would be so sick
Time to DIE
Heh...infa-knife
Also...
Just have the punch shoot out a knife
Little question...
Shank a sentinel, get extra glass
How come...
There are around 4 major races that occupy multiple GALAXIES. And almost every star system.
yes
Yet the only real planetary settlements we see are trading posts and struggling colonies?
Bideo bames
Story explains it
yes
Like...Shouldn't there be some kind of populated planets or something?
Honestly what you’re describing is one of the things that suck about nms. You see one planet you’ve seen them all
warning threat detected threat being the expander units
||The travellers are considered "undefined" therefore they aren't considered a race||
Multi biome planets would be amazing even if it means the game can only support one planet per system
I mean. Space stations don't really have the ability to house a lot of people. You only meet like a dozen or two people.
this is really a topic for #no-mans-sky not exped lol or possibly #nms-spoilers
Yeah. Fair.
I will exped your walls.
420 post spoilers erryday
wdym?
Well...You said "Thermal protection, falling" before the question...So I assumed you mean death by either cold or heat.
Sorry if I got it wrong. >->
||If you have an anomaly detector there is a emergency civilization shelter pod which reveal how many people from space stations that are destory in there.||
no i mean like expedition wise
extreme cold damage detected
Like. So bad, your entire being forgets everything up until the start..
Idk if this was answered but does getting to the center of the galaxy on this expedition fulfill the “To Live Forever” achievement (getting to the center of the galaxy on permadeath)
I think it only grants the achievement you get for doing it on survivial.
do i lose my inventory?
incorrect it will reward
thats from the recent expedition isnt it?
atleast on perma, idk about exped
I’m referring to the recent expedition, yes @merry gazelle
Even your inventory forgets everything.
Like I said.
Really bad amnesia.
Do we have portal glyphs for the center of… whatever galaxy we’re in for this expedition?
Oo question.
As with expeditions ending in the save becoming a normal playable save file.. what does exp7 become..?
probably the same Euclid galaxy we all know and love
Surival
Back on exped..
That's been written somewhere as absolute? I'm truly curious.
I will test it but I’m pretty sure we’re not in Euclid. Blighted wasn’t in Euclid either
Average Euclid fan vs average Hilbert enjoyer.
wait wtf, it reset al my fucking Exped progress cause I DIED
Wanted to quote this-
Use the save points they give
You must be new here
🤮 euclid
why?
Yeah...
I will be making an outpost in Hilbert soon
Dying resets everything.
That's like how they say welcome to exp7. 'You died again'
😡
are you supposed to die?
Also...Offtopic question...
What happened with the negative galaxies?
there werent any?
People have been complaining about the whole dying thing for days not, I’m surprised you missed it
Just once the reason they give you the save points is so if you die you can use the manual save file
ah, ok. I was thinking to start the exp today
no more thermal falls for me
WHAT?
Tell me you are paranoid without saying that you are paranoid.
Is everything there made out of DARK MATTER?
I could make a mom joke...But I'm not 12 anymore...So yeah. I'mma spare you all from that cringe.
paranoid na tbh i could just code turn off thermal heating totally and never dje via planetary elements
Do it
ok done
I meant I wanted to hear the mom jokes. Idk what you just did but it sounds like HACCS
It’s okay tho I partake in my own blasphemous activity
I felt the same. Left me ready to hear it once mentioned.
Well. It might break any laws of nature. But still won't be able to fit her.
I don’t get it
I think that's the joke 🤔
Yep. I suck at it. Also part of the fact that I might be a girl. And am like... 7 years too old for this crap.
How old exactly is that
Around adulthood. Don't really want to post my age on a...Pretty large server. With like. Idk. Over 100k people on it?
One of my bases was at a trading outpost, so smuggling is a breeze
Am I the only one that is confused about these... Random updates to galaxies?
The 140th galaxy for example got updated in Outlaws.
Why?
probably prep for future content
After the first death required for the milestone, do you need to die any more?
I'm at the stage in life where my children suggest I should have adult supervision when I go anywhere ... 😉
In...The 140th galaxy?
I would go there and find out
Yeah but you don't lose anything at all
You can't die at all after that first milestone.
It's at the end when you do the quest with the living frigate
Yea you can, I died to fall damage and reset
I meant it isn't okay to
||yikes||
You lose all your progress. What Florin said is a huge ass spoiler but I don't know if we care about those in this channel
It about gave me a heart attack when I did it
Well, I mean, the fact that there is a living frigate as an end reward was kinda part of the press release
I think it's like a courtesy thing really.
Well sorry, but I think it's oke in here
Not that people do or dont care right? Idk just opinions flying my friends
Sure, but when there's two options, and one = death, you can't help but feel like OMFG REALLY if you don't know that's the outcome
Same haha.. I was thinking I chose a wrong answer
I was all "hot damn, I made it!" and then suddenly the death screen comes up and I'm on save select and in shock
one thing i liked about it was how thematic it felt. i didn't hesitate to let it do whatever it wanted to do, and when i saw the screen fade to white...
I was thinking in that moment.. Can I close everything and check my save files?
honestly top-tier expedition all round, though i understand people's difficulties with the, well, difficulty
It was okay for me since I play perma occasionally and play survival half time but if you don't have that under your belt this would be quite the experience. It was a bit nerve-wracking for me in spots just because I don't generally put myself in extremely unwise positions like derping around on extreme planets with aggressive sentinels. Not in those modes, anyway.
I really liked this one.. Was different,
I played only normal (and survival and perna only for the core achievement) so a bit of "stress" to not die was nice
yeah, i think us lot with survival/perma playtime had a much easier go of it! i do hope this expedition encourages more people to run survival, at least
I'm thinking it will. Truly majority voice on reddit speaks of normal mode being 'tutorial' whereas the other modes cater and are aimed at experienced travelers.
how do you get ancestral memories again
Feed creatures
I don't know that I'd keep this save for it. The only real advantage it has is the huge number of exosuit inventory slots we got out of it. I put all of mine in cargo, of course, because survival. But otherwise it's a mess. No free freighter, crappy ship... I could do better.
The rewards (first-one) are the ancestral
Feed 'em, then interact with them
Uhm it's still a free one tho
It's garbage though
The freighter I mean
No hyperdrive
@dense basin I've just done a freighter battle and was offered a system freighter for free, refused it of course
Really? I had to buy mine
I didn't even used it in this expedition
I summoned mine everywhere. It was highly amusing that I could do that even though it had no hyperdrive
I wanted the storage 😄
yeah on way to 3rd Anchor point
Too much to go for salvage data this time, 😅
I plonked in the bulkhead expanders as I got them and built a few storage units. Used it as a mobile base to do refining on. It was handy
it's a nice boost in terms of getting past the early-game slog, which i think is what might encourage many to use this save. but i vastly prefer my own saves and never keep expedition ones, so, what do i know :')
I don't keep the expedition ones either
I used only the refinery they gived to make 1000 nanites for a Economy Scanner.. I needed to go to the outlaw system for that milestone
They're fun, and I always learn new things (which I think is HG's intent), but I prefer my own pace and direction
I was lucky and found 2 almost immediately
So I made my million almost immediately as well 😄
I'm a piratical trader among other things, and I never stick to the expedition path. So I ended with a silly amount of units
So does anyone know if it's possible to farm their way through the optional milestones or is my best bet just logging in and hoping the community loop progression has progressed enough to get the rewards for those milestones?
I also like to do everything on a single planet then move to other tasks from another system.. But if is something important to get early in the game, then I go for it
I'm similar. I try my best to use and familiarize with one planet per system.
I like to find better planets to do milestones on. I went and found an extreme planet without aggressive sentinels for my storm crystals, for example. No reason to torture myself.
Hm, unfortunate. Probably gonna be my biggest gripe honestly. I've been really enjoying the rest of this expedition it's just the optional milestones and the fact that the deaths take you back to the loading screen that have been bugging me
You'll want to avoid dying once you're past the mandatory death
It will reset all your progress
Nice tip
Yeah found that out the hard way unfortunately haha
@dense basin you DMed the mods with the SS? Without optional milestones?
Cause the last one is not actually completed
@dense basin this is Mine 😅
Looks incomplete
Nice
Build base computers on the anchor point planets. Bases do not get wiped with death apparently
And apparently neither does your freighter base (but the freighter itself will)
Is it normal to say it's 0/5 completed?
Yes
its not hacks, its just mods bruv
Yes.. Because there are some optional objectives.. Will be fixed soon
I mean it’s not normal but everyone’s is like that
I sent that message last year D:<
i was hasing dinner
Okay, so we can't claim the reward yet. Thanks.
You just woke up from a long nap
Well now IM hasing dinner
nap? i was eating food
You can claim the rest of them
I pinged Gleam because they were active when I finished 😄
@fringe agate you active to give out roles?
Can I get the role too? Also, can I get the ones from previous expeditions?
If the role will be assignable through self-service later, I guess I'll just wait. Thanks.
whers de cornfield
hey is there any planets with storm crystals in the iteration 3 system
holy shit, how long do jt take to get one percent up from a single person
One of the later anchor planets has storm crystals, the one that is obscenely hot.
do you happen to know what checkpoint that is or no
one of the planets on the first check point system has them too iirc
Last one if I remember it correctly. It was one of the last things I did.
thank you
that was not my question tho
LOL
Do you actually have to kill the things that spawn at the graves?
I wonder how much material we need to give (from a single person) to increase it 1%
Nope they will just keep respawning
Had these guys fly overhead on the second rendezvous planet https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1833540844468594283/88933855ECB640D234A4C077D1B805C632CA6CDE/?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=false
If I am not mistaken the description of this channel says (includes screenshots& videos)
Anybody have an easy to find pirate system in the expedition?
The second system is one
@opal bridge
#nms-expedition message
Ty
another good pirate System is Sklanedysn X/Diplo Where? 70 LY from first checkpoint system
any that are farther in?
Thankyou @fringe agate
Also I was wondering what happens when you die after having completing the subsections?
I don't really want to try but I'd also like some piece of mind lol
Space whale vs worm?
I'm at a crashed Freighter rn, and I can't interact with the log. Someone placed a communication station right next to it, so would it interfere? How can I disable them?
Try reloading with your wifi off, may need to restart the game too
Do it without being connected to the internet at all. You can still access the servers with multuplauer off
k thanks
Omg we start with a freighter
It's kinda useless, inventory aside.
yeah, just did it completely offline and it didn't give me an option to interact with it
The inventory is what makes it useful 😄
The relevant techs for the matter beam and exocraft station are really expensive for this event.
Since survival inventory is kinda terrible if you're not used to it
Thats wierd :/ might be forced to find another. Might be a bug
I've always played in survival, so I really liked this expedition since it wasn't too easy nor too grindy.
Still took me 12 hours.
It's a bit spicier than the average normal player will be used to, and the extra inventory from a freighter is a big help for those peeps.
This expedition was my first go at survival and personally I love it.
There really isn't any challenge on normal and I kind of like the inventory management and having to prioritize what I need.
Though normal is better for that chill space explorer vibe
im literally on the planet why wont it continue its thing
Are you at the anchor point on the planet?
May trigger when you go there. I had a similar bug though and restarting my game made it work
well i never restarted it yet, so it wasn't that planet
i mean in the log it says to build a base computer
I really hope the absurd nanite and salvage module prices go back down after I am finally able to claim the final reward for this expedition
then why is it labeled as that
Who do I DM for the role? Just finished.
I'd like to know this as well
it's error, if you check discoveries via Esc key, Tufield XVI is bountiful planet
the real planet to be colonized is what i mentioned above
Alecapae Beta - Infested planet
also i completed two expeditions: Leviathan and Blighted
not sure if i got role for both
Do storm crystals spawn on all planets during storms?
So I have to wait for HG to fix the bug since I can't claim the final reward :/
You can self-assign Blighted in #roles.
No, just use the example in that screenshot. You'll note that it shows the bug
I believe it's only extreme storms, no?
Oooo awesome thank you!
I'll do that when I get home
Just needs to show your name and the 5 completed phases 🙂
I just want my frigate now 😪
soon, I'm sure
Well, soon™️
It is the weekend, after all, and everyone knows you don't release a patch on a friday
Fair enough lol
okay so leviathan role is requested manually, , the 4th expedition i barely completed due to bug, but not much issue for 6th and 7th
what the hell, why isn't it letting me complete the entire expedition?
done all 5 phases but it says 0/5 on the final
and won't let me claim the overall
Do you lose all expedition progress every time you die?
Does anyone have a 250 stack of emril they are willing to part with?
How do I get the materials needed to make the tool to get liquid sun?
look in caves
Magnetized ferrite and cobalt
what is this assist polo in searching loop 1? iteration 1?
Gotcha, thanks.
Do you lose your suit upgrades when you die? Slots?
You lose everything
the stalactite and stalagmite-type ores in caves are almost always cobalt
read a bit more. got the asnwer from reddit. apparently its a community thing, need all to contribute
What does persist?
your hermetic seal recipe
I've completed all phases of the expedition but it won't let me claim the overall expedition reward of the leviathan.
Lol that’s it?
Do you keep your multi tool when you die? I have a ton of slots and would hate to lose them.
I have it all still.
Too lazy for that shit
just try not to die more than once ... and never jetpack down a cliff ...
or rather off a cliff
I dropped from like 20 feet and lost 4 hours
Only thing that doesn't seem to be lost is the recipe for the hermetic seal and whatever is built on your freighter.
I sent a frigate expedition before accidentally dying. After I managed to return to the freighter, it still had my old refiner and command room with the frigate ready to be debriefed.
But that is probably unique to this event since we already start with a freighter.
Jetpacking for movement speed is just a dicey proposition in perma if you're not used to the fall damage difference
That's just a bug. If you completed all the phases, you're done the expedition. They're implementing a fix and we just need to wait until it's on live.
also ... make sure there's no overhang at the top before you try to climb those cliffs ...
Beware of low gravity planets. Takes just a careless jump to screw up all your progress.
Those suckers will eat your life support in a hurry too
Anyone have any suggestions on getting storm crystals?
at least life support doesn't drain constantly like hazard protection
Ride the Minotaur.
Definitely use that Minotaur.
are they just in any storm?
It has hazard protection out of the box.
No, has to be on an extreme planet.
You can find one easily though on anchor 4
Anchor 4 is an extreme world, but it also has aggro sentinels
I found a different extreme world so I didn't have to deal with both
I think the anchor planet of the last phase was an extreme hot planet with firestorms and storm crystals.
Yeah nothing is good about anchor 4 tbh
extreme storms + aggressive sentinels = bad day
- the mission point being on the side of a cliff
anyone else had their camera wig out on derelicts, making them unable to shoot things because hte projectiles just don't exist?
It's okay to have angy sentinels if you are on the minotaur since you can just yeet away.
If you pin activated copper in your catalogue, the map will send you to a system that has an extreme weather planet
'cause that's hit me twice, and this time the game crashed before I could get it fixed
Ye, but why do it if you don't have to?
Got that today. Lost like 30 minutes of progress.
nice. well at least it's not something going screwy with my hardware. hopefully it gets fixed before long, because I think I'm shelving the expedition until it does
Make sure you report it so they know there's an issue that needs fixing
I got lucky enough to finish it in one life (not counting the first time where I died on purpose), you basically have to think of yourself as 0.1 seconds away from death at all times
where would I do that? it's rare that I have an issue that gamebreaking

grazie
Who wants to join me in a party
If I drop my minotaur pad, can others use it?
will the stock minotaur and its gun be enough to wipe out sentinels on a planet?
I’m looking for a session to join
The plasma one? I did the mission with it, the sentinels didn't even attack me
the one you get from the space anomaly
have ppl absolutely confirmed that if you get any rewards from the QS vendor (either from past expos or twitch rewards), if you die, when the annoying reset happens, do you also lose the rewards you claimed -- and the ability to claim them again at the QS vendor?
Bear in mind that you don't need to kill them all at once. You can always destroy the first wave, hide until the sentinels alarm stops and continue doing it until you reach the target number.
I don't use it for combat unless I have the AI autopilot because I find it easier to snipe the repair and summoning sentinels with the boltcaster.
We've been told you can reclaim your QS rewards
ty Brendel 
me, happened in a tense moment too
I strongly suggest using your minotaur to get where you're going rather than trying to jetpack
I don't have enough batteries, so I'm just tunneling
the funniest part is that it's actually working
Be careful with that because there have been reports of the game glitching since it's a mountain
hmmm good to know
The minotaur has built in hazard protection
yeah but I don't have enough batteries to build it
wait I can make them...
why did it tell me I couldn't...
hmmmmm
ohhh, I didn't catch that
The one thing I did in that exped was make sure I had minotaur geobay mats in my bag every time I went to a planet. But I also learned that you could drop the geobay, pick it right back up, and still tromp around in that minotaur
that thing was a godsend
solar sail ships automatically recharge launch thrusters, right?
yeah
it's a bit slow though and solars (like fighters and exotics) need 50% fuel to launch in Survival/Perma
I'm not sure. Mine was a shoulder cannon, came with one of the fragments maybe
launch system upgrades become extra useful in survival/permadeath/expedition because they lower launch cost so better chance of recharge before needing to launch again
Anyone just taking random damage in the anchor 4 system? I was just getting damaged in the station and then also while flying with nothing showing why.
haah me too
In this expedition, if u save a freighter do they offer u a free one?
I saw that to trade it you have to pay, but then there was an option to receive payment if u save them
True. Launch systems are very helpful
Is anyone else getting more carbon than they used when making condensed carbon?
Weird this time when I died I didn’t need to rebuild the hyperdrive
place down the refiner, fuel with condensed carbon, to make more condensed carbon from carbon, pick up refiner, and it gives me back 90ish carbon. repeat the process and I end up with more condensed carbon everytime
I haven't tested it. But does it refund u the full amount of carbon fuel
I placed it down twice, each time using 34 condensed to fuel, its given me back enough carbon to make 86, after making 42 condensed carbon the first pick up, 212 pure ferrite the second pickup
You're only offered a free freighter if you don't have a freighter, and this expedition starts you with one, so no. The "payment" option gives you a cargo bulkhead, some gold, and some units, IIRC.
Great thanks for confirming
So I went onto a derelict frighter and this shows and keeps counting up, how do I a ddress this?
Any tips for getting storm crystals?
@gritty depot its on one of the planets we have to go to anyway, the third one I think
Has anyone else not had to rebuild the hyperdrive? The second time I got it I didn’t need the chromatic metal and whatever else I just installed it (want to believe I won’t have to start from scratch on everything)
@tired condor easier if you don't die.
This expedition is making me do everything I hate doing in this game
Didn't build it my first iteration, second time built it, third iteration got two of them in prepackaged form so gave one to someone at the nexus
I cheese getting to the rendezvous by checking the stellar class in the map then using the teleporter at the nexus to find the same class and warp to the system without a hyperdrive
Anyone know the location of a good multitool around the expedition systems?
Oh weird so sounds like there’s some random variations
There was some suggestions to use the minatuar to help gather them.
Haven't tried getting them in this game mode yet. But u Def need to get polo to give u the thermal upgrade
And also the environmental protection for ur mech
Is this not Tufield XVI?
hmm
Yes, it's currently bugged
or both
It's just bugged
Very sad
or both lol
The loop research thing is what's causing the bug
I really want space whale
It's fixed in experimental
NMS:"NO"
I imagine we'll have it next week
how does one even play experi?
So you can only get space whale in experimental?
We'll all be able to get it soon
what happens to saves when switching?
I think you still have all your saves
I tend to avoid playing experimental though
I lost my old save playing experimental living ships update
well yes, but can I keep switching between tho lol wouldnt constant switching cause issues?
I do recommend reading ip about it before switching.
You might get your whale faster, but you'll also get new bugs faster
where?
May I have the leviathan role? I posted image in #nms-photomode-gallery

my understanding is that it can cause issues
Read some of the info here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/3395163747100062366/
Please note there is the possibility that experimental builds may introduce new issues that haven't been caught in test. We'd like to recommend that all players back up their save files, by making a local copy of the st_[userid] folder found here: %appdata%\HelloGames\NMS\
Note that we don't anticipate any issues here. However, performing your own backups could mean the difference between resuming play immediately, or waiting for the next patch.
If you decide to opt out of experimental and return to the main branch, we strongly recommend resuming from a backed-up save from the main branch, rather than taking an experimental branch save back to main, which may cause unexpected behaviour.
Feedback and reports of new bugs/issues being found on Experimental are welcome, so please reply to this thread or submit a ticket to https://hellogames.zendesk.com/ with the phrase "Steam Experimental" in the ticket title. If you are running any mods for the game, please list them along with your bug report.
thanks
Looks awesome
are the memory imprints for anything
just for reading things more clearly without the pressure of possible death while you're standing on an aggressive sentinel planet with extreme weather
that kind of thing
They have no gameplay purpose
||Remind you of your sins||
mood
I just managed to get the storm crystals.. It's easy u only need 5
Just find a planet that has activated resources.. Like activated copper
Just land during a storm and collect them
GG! @fringe agate
👍 👍
You ||atoned for your sins||
I found this memery resonator mission bit unclear
I kept using it on the planet and then it told me to go visit some other galaxy
And I just had to randomly wordsearch the name
Was that just me?
You need to use it on the anchor planet
Ohhh!
Like use it on anchor 1, then anchor 2
I used it on anchor point 2.. Lmao
Etc.
So I'm backtracking this last bit
Yeah, basically
Thanks. Just landed on it now hah
Amen
||I have been washed of my sins, to be reborn anew||
Do I need a scanner to find a pirate system?
Go for the economy scanner, easier to build
Leviathan role is manually assigned, when you DM or ping <@&233305774745583618> with proof of completion: screenshot of the Expedition tab: Final Phase: 5/5 completed. See
