Can wait for a very important date.
oh ok, thanks ^^
Down the rabbit hole of anchor point 4
I actually lucked out on one world and when I landed there was a sentinel base over the next hill for me to take out
excellent!
My goal is always to spend as little time on that hell hole as possible. π My record is 92 seconds of boots-on-ground time.
Lol same. But I had bad sentinal aggro and had to make 3 landings on it to get to the gravesite.
I just make a hole and hide from those gits. Then I drill up to the gravesite and interact underground.
I got lucky last time and had no sentinels around, though
just landed slightly too far away
Can they attack you in a hole? Or does it work like for horrors?
I dig a hole at the grave for horrors
who's going to be awake in here for some hours?
Not me?

did you complete the expedition yet?
Are you lonely?
ye
!leviathanrole
Leviathan role is manually assigned, when you DM or ping <@&590975379678953522> in #nms-expedition with proof of completion: screenshot of the Expedition tab: Final Phase: 5/5 completed. See example Β»
If you don't have proof, the role will be self-assignable in #roles at a later date.
if Zoexy shows up in here and has completed all the milestones except iterate/repeat, someone will have to check what happened at the end of phae 5, etc.
I'm about to hed to sleep. they are doing phase 2 now, no idea if they will play through or anything
just a heads up
you can see the backread in the main channel to get an idea what's up
anyways, see folks tomorrow
<@&590975379678953522> Expedition Complete! π
I got lag on the loads.
Night π
zoexy may want to try and suicide a bunch before progressing too much, worried they may lose everything when trying to get iterate/repeat
true, if they complete the loop the progress might not reset
then if that at the end doesn't trigger it they can die a few times w/o issues
so that was my advice without giving spoilers to the player
i had two things left after i completed the loop
is play it all through
we already know that if you ||do phase 1, memory loop phase 2,3,4, all of phase 5|| the rest is "safe"
I'll be around @limber elbow let me know if you need anything
i.e. ||even if you die then, no problems||
Oh. Uhm... I believe that the Minotaur is a game changer π€£
Nice beast.
Now I only need a way to summon it whenever I feel it
if you put the geobay on a planet and pick it up, you can summon the minotaur aywhere on that planet
i only realized the minotaur was super useful towards the end, just keep the mats to build it in your inv, destroy it and rebuild on the next planet
and then you have the materials on youfor the next place
or geobay
ye, I'm just so stupid that I could see the mats required to build it again ;D
but good idea
right, gone, bed! see yas!
oh shit, this tradepost is under attack! game says I should join the defence force but UHM... not sure π I think I'll hide in this corner here, maybe it's safe...
Just get yourself a geo cannon and use it inside your base. It'll solve all your problems
ohhh nice, need to learn more about that. thanks, I'll google it later ;D
(this is not help channel after all) π
It was a joke. You don't need mats if you're dead
dont install it
Most people aren't crazy enough to use cannons on permadeath
ahhh NOW I remember what the geocannon is!
NOOO I'm not that noob new, I've just been away from the game for couple of months ^^
Lol
ok, now the Minotaur is even more overpowered π I found an AI/Autopilot module, it basically teleports wherever I land, and it works like a bodyguard. OH YEAH.
Yeah it's pretty badass
how many days left in this expedition?

i dont think its like that
That makes sense, it always just seemed to me that nearly immediately after one was over another would start
yeah
Of late they've been releasing a lot of new content, and with each new patch, we've had a new expedition to show off the new content. So - next time we get an emoji is when we're likely to get another expedition.
lol so my game just crashed, and I load back in and now my planet is just going from day to night night to day day to night in like 10 second intervals.
So my anchor three planet seems to be bugged? Im landed on the planet physically on where that yellow marker is telling me to go and it just keeps saying go to anchor point three. No find the gate etc'
No one knows. They only just started a year and a half ago or so and we are on 7.
They do some close together like a few weeks or month apart. Some further apart.
Do you have that milestone selected?
yeah
oh wait, I think 3 is the one where it lands you too far away
what is the symbol from a out of laws system?
try the coordinates in the pins
outlaw systems have a skull if you have a conflict scanner and say black market if you have an economy scanner
There are a bunch of them near the starting system
Use the pins
I need like 77 more nanites for the expedition any quick sources beyond just sitting waiting for a pirate?
yeah anchor 3, 4 and 5 drops you off at a very far location so you get "Signal is too weak" when you try to use the visor
Pins only list one pirate system and it's harder to find if you have an upgraded hyperdrive or if you are doing that late in the expedition π
sell tech upgrades from polo
if you can get your hands on a Conflict scanner
Diplo Where? (kind of to the right) and Scheherazade (kind of up) are both near to Rowland-Desk
install that and use the conflict filter on the galaxy map to find the pirate system (it should be red with the other conflict level 3 planet).
Fastet would be to scrap a ship and sell the tech if you have money. Otherwise crashed machines, abandoned buildings and settlements, if you're already setup with a nutrient processor make stew for cronys. Or find a mould farm base.
Yea in this expedition sell tech from polo.
Not something available in normal games
#nms-fauna is full of diplo info. It's a popular topic. People hunt them all the time.
or if you haven't done so before, go to Iteration Cronus in the Anomaly and he will give you nanites based on your planet discovery.
For 77 scan like 5 or 6 new animals and head to the anomaly to see helios
Diplo Where? is the name of the outlaw system.
MOTHER F... I step away for 5 minutes to make food and I somehow died in my ship landed on a planet
I was 4 things away from finishing the expedition
way she goes
<@&590975379678953522> completed the expedition π
im so mad it hurts
you probably got attacked by pirates
what about this one?
Its a community event
oh ok,
I think it will get completed in last day. π€
<@&590975379678953522> Expedition done!
Wth...299m nanites π€
Glad you got it complete Zoexy!
Eh well, who cares about that anyway
I do gimme some... π
Nanites are something i am usually short on....
just take the out of laws perk and sell it x) is like 250-2500 nanite each xd
@limber elbow i saw your *xy fox gif banner π³
i have miss the last expedition, soemone can join me and give me a Egg of this one please?
Okay let me push one out real quick...
π€£
Oh the quad egg, yeah I have one
i am on PC! microsoft store version!
Gonna boot my game up in 30 mins
Alright, just DM me your friend code then Iβll join once Iβve got the egg
alright! and my gods, this thing is ugly, look like my step-mother at the morning >.>

And here my screenshot got 6 hearts in a few minutes...
This one @limber elbow
And we have same freighter π
Which one... π€
the planet, is probably the most pretty planet i know and i seen since xd
i think you found Earth
It's nice. I find one with similar colors but it's always hazy :/
yes look like XD
Yeah...seems like it. π€
Distant cousin π€£
my home planet used to be like that until several updates later it's changed, twice now
What is the boundary. π€
it's to keep those interlooper g's out π
Keep trying...until you break the loop π€£
xD
How many bases you have on this planet π€
We have some T-rex on this planet xd
ehh..
like 30? xd
don't touch my Pyramid! :c
we cannot get a role for finished the first expedition evers? xD
Looks like a Mayan pyramid ngl
yes the base is inside the pyramid xd you have a portal in the top for go inside
Poor base computer has no place in base π€£
I am yet to leave Euclid.
Its not in euclid right @limber elbow
TOXIC DAMAGE DETECTED
is a paradise one xd
You got hit by the vomiting plant
@shy narwhal the best i find for sure
Nms... doesn't look like it?π€
no is another game haha is for the joke xd
Riiiiight
You dint answer me π
Nvm.
Sorry to bother ya.
no no is just xD haha i discovery this planet 1 years ago xd
let me to do something and i go to space for check
π
@median ember SUN PET!
and this is my pride xD she'S super ugly but is my first pet xd
@shy narwhal @nimble token @median ember
the Earth code! its my first planet i discovery like 1 years ago, but you're welcome to come and build a base on it!
@median ember yup first Galaxy
someone know the word cap you can learn? xd
Ok. I'm going to give it one more try.
What is previous Base item Cache?
When I click it it just says inventory full and does nothing.
And why would they put the antenna on the freighter right in front of the docking bay??
Uhhhhhhh
Expedition??
Yes, started Sunday. Got all the way to 4..and got killed in the freighter by some baby Monstrosities.
Baby monstrosity?!
Yes... Those little green things.. Babies
Did you break the specimen jars they were contained in?
And by freighter you mean derelict freighter yes?
Let me guess....you used emergency broadcast receiver and called up the derelict freighter. Yes.
Noooooooo they were in some kind of sack... Walked by and they just birthed themselves and started attacking.
Then I figure I better just destroy the sacks before more are born.. But noooooooo that just made more come out.
Yes, that was one of the things to do to progress.
Had to get the Somnal dust
Plus wanted some freighter stuff. It was just a C class with no tech.
Expedition gives you one freighter that has no monstrosity....rest things are there.
Just keep going with flow...ignore emergency broadcast receiver notification
You only need that once in last loop
Whatttttttttt. Noooooooo. Now someone tells me
One of last loop mission will give you a derelict freighter....as part of mission ..has enough tainted metal and somnal dust...and you only need that to make the flute
50 of each sonal dust...ancerstrol memories and liquid sun
Well now you know....so get going.....
I don't know.. Maybe I should just forget it.
You need help.....?
I didn't really want to do it in the 1st place. I caved in to peer pressure.
And caved into emergency broadcast receiver pressure too π€£
It kept pinging you every now and then
Means your sheilds aren't strong enough
So it has me starting all over.. And I just don't feel like it's the same. It's not giving me the same things to progress. No prompts..
Should I just delete the save and start new?
Ummmm yes.. Well at 3. It was having me go back to one because I didn't.
And needed that to do some memory thing.
So.. Going back to my initial question... What is the Previous Base Cache?
How come it says inventory full?
Is your inventory full?
No I only have refiner and save beacon. Ion battery, life support and some creature pebbles.
I don't have anything now.. Like 900 units and no nanites.
I was anchor 4 before with about a million units and maybe 5 thousand nanites. I was scanning everything... Killing Sentinels.. But now there's no scans because I already did it. So how will I make an money??
I'm stuck. Probably just going to forget this expedition.
For starters ....keep that negative attitude in check. Or if possible out of expedition channel. Don't meant to be rude but you need to be aware that there are other players too here. Please don't demotivate them.
If you do ||phase 1, memory loop phase 2,3,4, all of phase 5|| the rest is "safe" you wonβt loose stuff when you die
And I can help with providing fire support and stuff like that too
Itβs not like everyone is unwilling to help tho
Thereβs so many bases that can speed up the process
You're right.
Apologies.
Best I just leave. My attitude is bad right now.
Same here
Nah you can stay, venting is fine
I felt the same way when I died then I completed it after and felt good
I mean thatβs very frustrating after all
Ye
Same same
Just like sunshine after days STORM
Yeah, the expedition is extra stressful this time around
Tbh I get off on stress so I found it fun
When i died...i felt like...it was challenging me.
Me be like...OKAY YOU'RE ON. (Died again...like 5 more times)...
Me....THIS IS WAR
I died twice(one was forced the other was too much downward force)
It's like golf. Part of this is mental. I know my 3rd death was because I was rushing a load after I was upset with dying in phase 5. And my head made me reckless and miss recharging stuff.
I died only twice as well, both times forced by the game
Not trying to brag, in fact, I was about to die several times
just lucky, I guess
some of it is luck of the prng. some is caution or good awareness or good planning. doesn't matter as long as you made it!
When you play expedition, and mjulti, you always see people in your world
Is there an optiont o do that in non expedition realms?
Like being able to bump into people while doing your thing
you would need to play in a region where others are; player "civilizations" do this, and you could find one that suits you and join up
there are posts on the subreddit and some articles on the wiki about such groups
ok, thanks. One last question, when does expedition end?
I thought it was 2 days, but my save says 5 days

that's the timestamp when the event itself ends, as in when your save can convert to Survival mode.
the time left shown in game is rounded off.
Do you have to keep the memory imprints in you inventory?
i kept them but i'm not sure if they're required. i think you can save them in storage, like another ship or in your freighter. but i can be wrong.
i been trying to find aggressive creatures, is there anyway to do this through the discoveries tab?
you can go back to the planet you started in for this expedition
it has aggressive creatures
use the space station teleporter
Check The Pins
check this pin for info on predators
and storm crystals and outlaw systems and etc π
how od you know what the starting world is?
it's named in the message
and also in the pins is a post with all the systems, worlds you need, glyphs, names, etc
all the planets/systems are also listed in one of the pins or you can run !faq-expglyphs in #bot-spam

Planet is "Christole_Oich" in Starsystem "Rowland-Desk"
Thatβs a lot of stuff in the pins
!faq_expglyphs
pins pins pins, we love pins! π
someone actually wrote a wiki entry for it
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Christole_Oich
Lmao nice
can run that in #bot-spam
in the #bot-spam channel.
You guys even got the glyphs too? Nice
with the glyphs. you can go to a portal and enter them
when you're on a planet you can see them, they are essentially latitude and longitude numbers
oh the lat,long? you check them in your starship while flying
Oh that
move a little north/south or east/west and you can see the direction they change
I know how to use glyphs now, fortunately
you first portal to the planet with the glyphs. then can fly to the lat/long coords.

so if you get "close" to a place and the location scanner is being a PITA again, if it's one of those anchor points you just look it up and walk/exocraft/fly right there
thx
Nearly completed "Phase 3" π
Pins have been really useful.
Any special tip for 4 and 5? Something I should know, maybe not in the pins? π
let's see
anchor 4 has aggro sentinels so you could find a player base from the space station that says 'sentinel pillar' or some such, go turn them off first
for the anchor point itself, planetary coords once you get close by ship, fly there is better than dealing with possible ||extreme wind events|| on foot
5 is less trouble than 4.
ahhh didn't know about these "sentinel pillars", let me Google for more π
good! π
note that you do not have to shoot anything to turn off the sentinels
just walk up to the terminal
ohh nice... it disables sentinels on all planet?!?
does being in a Minotaur help at all in that case?
here's the terminal at a pillar
the sentinels will be disabled until you reload or warp/teleport away.
found it
Shutdown Sentinel forces : This will disable sentinels on the current planet for a limited amount of time
sorry, it takes a long time for me to upload some of these images, bad internet
the minotaur will help you with the weather.
perfect
if you see the aforementioned ||extreme wind event|| get in your ship or a building well away from any door!
rofl, ok
that's about it, everything but the first 2 phase 4 milestones can be done somewhere else.
appreciate the help, I came back to the game after several months away and I went straight for the expedition, but now that I'm at this point, I think I can do it π
next question is for #no-mans-sky probably so I'll go there π
Does anyone know why I am unable to retrieve the schematic for "a shattered past" once I board the derelict freighter the command module only offers to give manifests. I've tried in multiple systems.
Oh so there is more than one terminal?
there are three
first: crew manifest
second: captain's log
you can skip those
third: engineering, you want that
Thank you!
yeah, engineering terminal is right at the end of the freighter
ty
you can't but you can place another somewhere else on the same planet, then the first one will disappear
oh okay good
LOL I like this solar ship but cargo is so tiny I'm tempted to switch to one of the other ships I have π
I've been absorbing these right and left and can't seem to get this milestone to complete on this PC run. Did it on PS4 and don't remember having a problem with this milestone.
what does it mean, "planetary coords once you get close by ship"? I always have to land, I don't get more precise coords in the air... mmm
when you are in first person in your ship, you are going to the marker which is an approx location
get there and don't even bother to land
did you try crafting one, then consuming it?
look in the HUD for the planetary coords, upper left maybe?
see how far away they are from where the ones are in the post
oh
then adjust the direction you're going accordingly...
ye, that's a memory you have to craft ^^
try to craft it in inventory π
you will need the stuff they gave you from another milestone, um
daaaamn you are right, the Pin gives the coords I need! woot
(I'm so dumb)
xD
probably, if I fly low and slow I could even see the building
'Cluster Horde' (earn 2k nanites), if you did this, you have the materials to craft not just 1 but several memory fragments
you know everything π
I have a several cheatsheets I keep and reference often!
what's the name of the starting system n planet again? alternatively, a base on it, i didn't set one up there or on anchor 1 but i need to go bacc there lol
Those are pinned here as well
ty
Np
also couldve just... checked teleporter... space stations.. lol
Well... for being a terrible planet, Anchor 4 has been easy π
But I hope the rest is easier π
but, if I die, remember my kindness π
(I mean, first 2 tasks, eh)
Smuggling wasnβt too bad, everytime I was pulled over Iβd refuse to give up the cargo then go into the nexus to lose them. Same with pirates.
do not let your guard down and you should be fine
Just one question: I found ZERO sentinels and the one I found was... Shut down. Wth? Maybe someone else disabled the sentinels on all planet before me? Didn't know it works like this π
Good to know!
Yep yep I'm not taking unnecessary risks!
Playing expeditions with multiplayer turned off can avoid such things. π
Plus avoiding trolls, Iβve had people try and kill me in the past.
Oh but I like multiplayer π especially if they disable sentinels on all planet on my behalf π€£
I don't like pvp,no
I shut down the sentinels on an aggressive sentinel planet that was giving me grief my entire time there, haha.
just finished phase 2 uWu
Nice
i thought all new multitools upgrades and ships were s class, i died and started again today and everything i have is c class
I think it's a bug! There's something in Pins maybe
oh didn't see that one all the way down there
i think i may not be connected to the discovery services
says loop progress is unkown
still getting c class
died a couple times now and im still getting the same exact c class ship and tool
that's a bug and you should (after verifying that online discovery services is active for you) retry a few times
how exactly do i verify that
if it's an ods connection issue you will need to get that sorted first
discovery tab, lower left, see what it says
ok
it says connecting
oof
at this point I would recommend to ask in the -help channel about it
ok
some people there know all the things to try
oh!! did you get S gear??
woo hoo!
refining stuff into nanites
game hangs
:monkaS:
it unfroze for a sec and i could move but then it crashed lol
shoulda saved
how disable sentinels on me base planet π₯Ί they annoy ze hecc outta me
sentinal tower perhaps?
Yes
scawy x3
ooh i got a few multitool modules from killing random sentinels tho so that might make things easier ig
Those modules only affect the boltcaster weapon, so if you don't use that, its a waste of space
you don't need to do anything but walk up to the pillar and punch buttons
ew rly
no shooting required.
huh, Idve thought they'd make that harder but aight
the hard part is finding the pillar in the first place
- ez
- safe base planet
- oh that was a mission?
i killed like... 5 sentinels, then hid underground, while the rest left, and one of the things they dropped was map data to a sentinel towrr...
there is a milestone in the expd to shut off sentinels, I guess you could do it by defeating 5 waves instead but why would one
there you go
if you kill 15 more (a few here, a few there)
then that's a milestone that gives you a map as a reward
so you know, on some not awful world, pick a few fights, run away after shooting just a few, repeat until you've done 20 (or put up a building and run in there, whatever)
imma go do that on another planet ig since i disabled em on my base planet lol
am doing some generic gameplay shit rn (crafting fuel items, refining -> nanites, scanning some creatures for nanites, fixing some stuff in my base, etc...) and then all I've got left to do is AP3 and i think one more mission in this phase
hopefully phase 4/5 aren't gonna totally kick my ass
but first, the obligatory bi-weekly "my game crashes too much" file-integrity check :)
!tier
@magic elbow Please use this command in #bot-spam.
there's no chance we're finishing the last 22% of tier 5 before the expedition ends, right?
Is this proof enough of completing previous expedition for the roles? π I forgot to post the picture for the beachhead and pioneers expedition. <@&590975379678953522> no big deal if not. Haha
@cyan blade I believe all of the old exp roles are self assignable now
Check #roles
Ahh! I see. Thank you @burnt kraken I had not known.
@tough slate

oops, thank you π
ok, I need to shutdown sentinel forces... the well know sentinel pillar/tower?
but I need a chart to discover one... do I kill sentinels (poor creatures!) until I find this chart? or what? π
ok so
there's a milestone "kill 20 sentinels" which gives you a map
now you can do this the easy way
sorry if there's a pin and it's already been answered
no worries
ahhhh yes yes I have that milestone
first
thanks! π
π
let's see if I can die to sentinels, now π
nah, for the milestone before that π I'm at 10/20
oh, I see
10 to go
well shoot, just pick off a few here and there,
like pick a fight on any high sentinel place
before dying, yesterday, I was at like 50 kills xD
good good, will do
what do i do?
how do i avoid sentinels attacking me on the fourth rendezvous planet
I would either
- go to the space station, find a player base that has 'sentinel pillar' in the name, go there, shut them off, or
- go someplace else, do the 'kill 20 sentinels' milestone, get the pillar map, go to the anchor 4 system, save, use the map, if it doesn't give you a location on the right planet, reload until it does...
then proceed as before.
i think ill just turn them off and kill some elsewhere lol
so uhh, due to my inability to not dumm, and my game crashing, the sentinals on my base planet are still active, and i want another map (already used the milestone one), there's also no sentinal named bases on my planet
kill a few sentinels then hide in a tunnel til they go away
if not, try the previosu systems etc
there are probably plenty around
'pillar' or 'off switch' or anything like that
hem, no, i need a map specifically
ok lemme back up
i found 3 pillars without using a map
you need a map to switch off sentinels for the milestone?
i want to disable the sentinals on the planet i have my base on, i already did that before but game crashed and they're back now, i already did both milestones related to sentinals
or you need a map to switch off sentinels on anchor 4 because it's awful?
or...?
ooooohhhhh
and you didn't put a base computer by the pillar?
its only a temporary thing
ignore them
ill just live with it for now untill i find a pillar again
they dont stay off
ye
the easy way will be to shoot some sentinel drones, collect the glass, manual save, open the glass, have map? yay. not have map? reload, open again...
how close are you to being done?
but later.
anyway, AP3... memory... urgh whispering eggs i hate those.. aaand storm crystals, iirc there's a pin with a planet for that so ez.. OH.. summon your own mem frag? what...??
yep
If you do the settlement quests, you'll get attacked by corrupted sentinels regularly
you get the blueprint for memory fragments from one milestone
oh the expedition will tell you how when you get there
or you can just annoy the space sentinels
oh i didnt think to just save and reload to retry the drops from glass lol, i got a msp like that once but not on this save lol
aight lemme quickly do AP3/mem
yeah well you can definitely do that later when you're getting things squared away on your planet
ok
so uh i don't think there is a pillar base, is there any other good way to find a pillar
map
oh im disconnected from discovery services again, thats prob why no bases are showing up
did you do the kill sentinels thingy?
that wuld be it
there are a TON of bases
wait for it to reconnect again, not worth the headache otherwise
i made a base at a crashed freighter cause i couldnt find one for the longest time
good point! π I just became the ruler of a settlement, handy π
yep, base everyplace
pillar, crashed freighters, planet with storm crystals, every anchor world. Put A Base.
no need to upload, just put one.
man whats up with the ODS today
is it hello games or me
seen a lot of post saying this happens when there are a lot of people playing right after an update or expedition, maybe thats it
dunno, hope it clears up soon though
ODS been fine for me lol
urgh y did i have to run out of warp cells 1 jump away from AP3
rip
yuck
π
so. something with 'pillar' in the name heh
shouldn't the bases in the current system show up at the top of the list?
wtf knows
you want to be sure, check the weather on the planet (which one?) and see if that's the weather listed for the base
nope it appears its just randomly mixed in
Now suddenly game feels a bit too peaceful. π€
it sure should
why does this keep happening omw to every AP lol
to make sure you earn that 2k nanite milestone π
well just in case! π
x3 yeah sure
is there a faster/higher-capacity refinery then the portable one that i may set up at my base... and how much salvaged data will i waste on it xD
no
there are ones that don't need fuel
but they are not faster and input slot size is not bigger
hmm that's an improvement
this is survival, small slots are the deal
to unlock the medium refiner you need uh
Well, they do have more slots, but you can't pre-emptively put stuff in them, sadly
80 salvaged data (and some power)
gotcha
medium refiner has 2 input slots, large refiner has 3
Although in this case, you'd be stuck with using one at a time
80sg + ??sg to unlock solar panels (actually, unlock any kind of power to begin eith lol
20 for the teleporter to unlock that part of the tree, then 100 for the medium refiner
"only" 120 total
ahahaaa kill me
yep
Or 60 minor settlements' worth
don't bother
Your best bet is probably other player's bases
Some of them have lots of refiners you can borrow for a time
even then... meh. stash in storage in the freighter, refine when bored
True, you can also stick a medium/large refiner on the freighter
yeah i found a base called smhg smthng mould that trapped some runaway mould and like 50 refineries lol
That'll do it
but i already have plenty of refineries at home
Just don't forget to clear them out when done :p
gotta love nipnip farmers, found a nipnip pillar base lol
nice!
sell that stuff off if you haven't got the smuggling milestone done yet π
first thing i do on any expedition, go find a nipnip farm lol
so, when i reach AP approx location, how do i get the exact location without landing and using the vizor thingy
The local Gek will be over the moons
easy
If you're lucky, you might have a beacon or base nearby
Check The Pins
If it's the graves you need to look for, then you need some sharp eyesight :p
there's one with all the glyphs, ssytem names, planets AND
man that planet sucks the color out of everything
planetary coords for all the anchor points
Thats nothing...i saw someone ending with 299m nanites. π
It's located in 1950
(not the memory loop ones, the ANCHOR poiints, the portals)
Goodness o:
how the hell
Maybe they've got a sentinel factory
See
The starship also has a display for them
that's what I mean
first person in ship
you should not even bother to land until you get to the portal coords
They're usually shrouded in beacons, so they're pretty noticeable
Yeah i hate solar coz it pretty much destroys the first person view
Densely populated areas
I've never had any issues with it personally. Besides the solar sails that pop up on the sides, it doesn't seem any worse than the living ship's
I prefer normal ship...like
Little cousin of radiant pillar
Although i wish i had that ship from first expedition...that was lovely
I have the stock version of that one...
But GOLDEN VECTOR looks awesome
okay so... how do i do whispering eggs without 1) getting my ass kicked, 2) the core just dissapearig
May i know why was zoexy removed or did she left this server.
You need to be near...
Quickly grab it... and jetpack to a top of building...and let your minotair do the dirty work
Most imp...BE PATIENT.
You do need the minotaur AI though
One egg at a time.
Or, if you don't mind getting caught in the crossfire; grenades
or just...grab em lol
I also remember seeing a tip suggesting that you shoot the eggs on the other side of the building, since only one batch of horrors spawn at a time
it's actually easier then i made it out to be
Yeah it was my tip π
I usually do it.
If i do one egg on front right...next one would be back left....and series keeps going....
or ingame lighting can just crash my game lol
I follow this pattern...
1......3...............6......8
5......7..............2......4
Number is egg cluster position...
Near an abondoned building
And just for record you dont have to do it on extreme plsnet
Most missions can be done on stable planets like one with Red grass
Or cloudy moon
aight let's wait 15m for NMS to launch and load into my save, and then walk 1k units to AP3
ship fly too fast and coords confused me too much so i landed as close as i could without getting flung into a different dimensions
Keep your ship at 20u π
well up to you
No need to slam on throrttle
fly low and slow, try N/S to see which of those changes whichcoord the right or wrong dir
after that one is settled, try E or W to get the other one
you're so close it's easy
I think they don't know how to use compass yet. π€
but 1ku walking is not awful either
Nanometer
well walk/run
π€£
still way too fast, 'sides melee boosting is fast enough on land, and i need more units walked for steam achievs lol
a floor panel might be 5u across?
I neither walk nor run
I simply call out my pet...and sit on that
It floats...so....vroom i go
1000u in less than 2 minutes
oh right, exocraft exist too
Uhhhhhhh...m talking about pet not exocraft
My pet was way better than any exocraft
shh ik
don't forget that minotaur, impervious to the environment (but not damge from hostiles!)
I usually kept it around...while i play on my pet π€£
That thing kept jumping around
One time went straight into a cave....i laughed sooo hard then
i learned that the hard way
lol
that's gaming though innit. try something, if it works, yay! if not, gripe some and try something else π
any idea where?
im on the final point planet and the memory resonator isn't doing anything
just closes the inventory and nothin happens
did you get to the anchor point 5 portal first?
yes
did you collect the rewards from it?
yeah
yep almost there
are eggs more frequent near certain buildings? and if so how do i find em lol
You can find them near abondoned building
You can use scanner....or buy maps from cartographer
Of abondoned sites
There you can find enough eggs....
you can find player bases "whispering eggs" or "larval cores" or "abandoned building"
look for those if you like
im walking around on the fourth anchor point and still not getting it
ic, thx
you're at the portal?
yes
try walking into the inner part of it, see if that triggers it
otherwise it's gonna be, move a little away, save/reload, walk back over, see if that gets it (and multiplayer->disabled for good measure)
you got the mission pinned right?
it shouldn't matter but just in case
Save reload
ok
so for the derelict there are some choices
you can do any derelict in the galaxy if you want
this means you could do one that has a known set of hostiles (take your pick)
yeah im going to use the beacon thing next to point 3
you don't need to use the beacon
go to system 3
space station is fine
pin the mission
pulse.
oh cool
pin the mission AFTER you get to the system you want
havig my main base a 1m pulse away from the space station is annoying, ill have to go gather data to set-up power and a portal soon
but imma focus on expedition for now
just summon the anomaly and go there, then bounce to the station
unless the loading screen is long for you
oh tru tru
sure glad the game gave me a blaze javelin instead of something actually useful on a derelict
lol
just get a bit of dust and go directly to the final terminal right
fun
first crate that has it should do for that
i hate derelict freighters
already!
why? they're easy loot... >.>
not when you only have a blaze javelin
oh rip
coulda gone to system 4 (only bugs, just move slow and get through)... but noooooo
i took care of them with a neutron canon p easily
you wanted turrets and drones? you got 'em π
only need 32 of that
any deposit (and a little sodium to charge the solar ray) and you'll have knocked that one out too
someone should have gotten the liquid sun and crafted the thing by now
let alone used it
gonna just leave us hanging here tho
got it and got the leviathan
lol
now to do the sentinels and eggs
do you loose stuff if you die after accepting your fate?
any tips for finding a crashed freighter? One of the few things left for me is to find one. Ive just been flying around on the surface looking for one
i think i got softlocked lmao
teleported to an infested facility and the door is blocked by something
check pins
warp away and back, try again
no portal, so i reloaded an autosave
otherwise try a different base
oh yeah, at 140 salv data for teleporter plus power, not man y bases are gonna have that
||the xaines world guide said you don't loose stuff if you die after completing the leviathan part, is that true?||
that's a spoiler
(please spoiler mark the q)
||if you complete phase 1, memory from 2,3,4, phase 5, you have broken the loop. now mechanics are like a normal survival save: lose general inventory, not progress)||
ok
AP4 time
how long does it take for them to respawn
too long. days
lol i got like 20 out of the first base i tried
ooof
it also had a crashed freighter in the exact same place basically
all the infested worlds have eggs, could try a grab and run
(have the ship really close)
where
any intested world. i.e. any anchor point world
choose the least annoying of them terrain and weather wise
i mean where are the eggs, besides the facilities
i thought they only spawned near facilities
on infested worlds, ust there in the open
one here, one there
or try any dead world, same
there's no terrain or weather issues on one of those
nice parking
got the egg from another facility
if im not connected to ODS and finish the expedition, do i have to load the save again when i am connected for it to register with the servers?
hmm
unclear, once you're done and claimed all the things, go to the quicksilver vendor on another save and see if the items show up ("claim expedition rewards")
oh so you don't have to be online for it to sync?
because we have all been very very bad in a past life
it's per account and I don't think it has to register with the servers, not 100% sure but I think not
cool
just as you should be able to purchase a qs item w/o ods connected. I think.
now to kill a few sentinels and ill be done
woot!
getting there though
yeah uWu I'll finish up phase 4 today, and if I'm not too tired I'll do phase 5 too, else, tmrw
slow and steady wins the race
oh dw i just killed my PC after flying off a cliff in AP4 lol
I'll have to fly as close as i can this time cuz otherwise it's pain
yeah use the planetary coords
they're so confusing tho, i go straight north and there's still a tiny variation in my E/W coord
there is but if you get to the right N/S then you can just concentrate on sorting the E/W one
long as you start "close" (i.e. near the marker)
get the role! see the pins on how!
so just ping the mod role with a pic of the final phase?
uh huh
ya got it done, that's the main thing!
now see if you got the rewards on another save
ok
AP4 done, was a pain, time for mem, and then ig phase 5 (also ew all these ||glyph chsrging resource requirements for weird AP4 portal|| wtf)
i set base computah just in case lol
Aaaaaand I completed 4. Damn, now I'm getting nervous because now failure is not an option π
So, when I found a mission in my settlement to unlock a personal drone (?) and it gave me more missions and I nearly died... Oh my, what a moment.
Personal drone can wait!
gg!
"computah" π€£
batteries are important!
imma go to station and get s bunch more
oh shit wait i have nip, uhhhh... anomaly -> tp to station
wait wait wait wait
what what what
how do you do the spoiler thing Its about the end of the expedition
put || on either side of the text
also, can someone gimme a list of the things i need for the ||glyphs @ AP4 portal||? idk if i even need that but better safe then sorry, for now ill go to AP5 tho
thank god it's finally over I never have to look at this expedition again XD
||AP5 has the same thing? what do they do?||
alr, final 3 missions, let's do this
oh god i have too much stuff on me to do a derelict lmao, lemme get rid of some and maybe summon my freighter to get rid of more
Regarding planetary coords, it's easier to get to the proper E/W coord first, because you can use the compass to head directly N/S from there with little to no E/W drift. @indigo falcon
oh i pulsed too far away to summon my freighter and the derelict dissapesred lol, time to go buy a map ig
mmm Memory Hotspot 5 is in tricky position, right? cant find it π but also I can't see sh*t because storm
only APs are set locations, memories are randomized
also, I think I landed inside a volcano, it's hot down here! ahhhhhhhhhh!
random hates me then π
I can build you animal feeders if you want to help finish the final milestone
last mission here we go, but first... all my invs are full except freighter so... offloading time
||istg if that cleared my inventories again||...
no recent manual save... ig this forces an autosave too...
oh okay thank god
wOOH, expedition DONE
ss in a sec
||https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828513957|| <@&590975379678953522> UwU
π₯³ 
(also, final inv cuz y not: ||https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828513969|| + ||https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828514006||)
oh btw, isn't there some stuff i forgot to claim?
iirc isn't one of the rewards an ||s-class freighter|| or smthn?
thx uWu~!
you get a ||living frigate|| as the final reward which becomes a cross-save expedition reward you can also claim in other saves in the space anomaly
i wish we got an s-class freighter from this expo 
Good luck.
they must be real rare considering i've never seen anyhing > C class
gonna find me a red one
isnt re-coloring possible at all?
you can farm s-class freighters
Would the capital freighter in a system be the same across normal and survival?
it is for most freighters. there's one i've chosen before which can't be recolored fully
i c
venator that's mainly "black" (altho not a real black, has green metallic tones too) can't be recolored fully, the black part stays
so i'll have to farm a red venator instead 

ah so you wouldn't want the red sentinel that's in one of my systems (if it's even the same in survival)
ooh sorry i didn't see your question. yeah, those can be farmed across game modes 
Cool.
I think I may base in the same system as my normal mode save once the exp is over.
that's a nice idea. makes it feel like home across saves/modes
i never thought of that
im not touching NMS again atleast untill the exp is over, not out of fear of (irrelevant) death but just exhaustion lmao
Then you'll get to play another one!
fuck.
Realistically I don't know when the next exp will come out.
it's great to take breaks 
we'll see when HG releases the next expo. i def like having breathers in between 
ngl if they're frequent enough, you could go about playing NMS only trough exps lol
what's a "main save" smh
it's true. they've been releasing a lot of updates pretty frequently. it's impressive
Yeah. I've picked up some stuff from the steam summer sale, so I'll be playing that once I feel like I'm out of things to do in nms.
omg right?
I think I've only experienced this with naev so far.
Or maybe minecraft but I hardly play that.
(in case you're wondering, naev is another spaceship game that I highly recommend because it's great and it's free)
i mean i'll probs keep this as my main save tbh, i uhh... never started a main save before trying out this expedition, i only played less then 5h at a friends during pioneers to help em out w/ some missions while they were busy, and i only got around to buying the game a few weeks ago during a stea, sale
if exp rewards are all cross-save, i'll keep this as my main and make new ones for every exp, then claiming them again on this save
oh that's cool. a lot of folks enjoy survival mode.
Yep, exp rewards are all cross save. You can claim them from the quicksilver shop in the anomaly.
i could probs also transfer my loot as long as it's the same mode and i get my boyfu to finally download the game so we can plae together smh
yeah, that makes sense. you can try doing the main storyline too, at least Artemis, if you're into story. but there's plenty of time for non-expedition content ofc
Survival mode isn't much different than normal afaik. It's largely just the damage taken and inventory restrictions.
oh yeah im gonna do the main stuff too, just... yknow... on a survival save ig
The inventory restrictions are pretty major, though... Makes farming anything considerably more difficult.
me @ exp A ended (surv save) -> bf @ surv save -> me @ surv save?
would smthng like that work?
for item transfer i mean
AI mines and mold farms are far less effective with the restrictions.
also, is normal/surv cross-play allowed? if future expeditions dont become survival saves then this idea is retarded
Yes, expedition saves will convert to normal survival saves from what I've heard.
Normal and survival cannot crossplay.
so if i finish the next expedition, and that save becomes a normal one, and then i try to transfer my items to my bf who's also on a normal save, and then he transfers them back to me on my main save which is survival now... that last bit would be impossible?
that's slightly annoying ig...
let's hope future exps become survival saves then ig?
Normal just cannot interact with survival at all.
What do you have that needs to be transferred?
nothing rn
i only have 1 save and it's the exp one lol
but if the next expedition becomes a normal save when it ends i wouldnt be able to transfer all my items from it on this save since this exp turns into survival when it ends
the idea being to keep one survival save (this one) and accumulate everything (from future expeditions on other saves) to it so i can delete those other saves and always keep getting a certain degree of main-save progress even from other expedition saves
most expeditions have converted to Normal mode mind you. this expedition has been the exception. and it was a much welcome option for folks who prefer playing survival and perma, cuz of gamestyle.
most folks ditch their saves. and are okay losing the inventory items. some opt to transfer some inventory. but the idea of expedition saves is that they can be easily discarded. as you're able to get the exclusive expedition rewards in your other saves.
yeah ig makes sense
Hi All, I'm having a strange issue where I can't seem to slot any tech modules into my exocraft. I've never used an exocraft before, so I'm not sure if I'm missing something.
Which exocraft? The sub and the mech have their own specific modules where the others share.
It's the Minotaur.
The one I start with in the expedition.
and the exocraft tech you got is def for the minotaur? cuz there's tech for different types
