Why after 8 hrs in game I still didn't get the freighter thing?  I keep roaming about with my Signal Booster but I haven't found anything significant so far. Yeah, a couple of crashed fighters (that I cannot summon on a station so  ??!!) but most of all... where is the goddamn antimatter blueprint? And why they don't sell it at the station's terminals (antimatter, not the BP)?  Love this game. froody guy fucked around with this message at 22:34 on Jul 28, 2018 |

Get close to an animal, have X (10-20ish) of whatever they want to eat, hold interact. You may have to chase them down to finish feeding them. The one I’ve fed wanted carbon but in older saves I’d seen silicate elements and I think one was Iron so you’ll have to be quick to see what they want before they run from you.

The Welfare Freighter that you save from pirates comes after you get a hyperdrive; with your signal booster you'll only find Crashed freighters, which are good for buried treasure only. iirc like above you get Antimatter from your basic starter questline; kinda wish they'd just give it to you out of the gate... froody guy posted:Now I'm stuck with a frikken mission asking me to feed 8 species of animals.

That is amazing design. yeah this apparently a PS4 bug? I dunno. I found this out the hard way too. the only way I’ve found to delete it was to build a SECOND one right next to the first one, leave the system, then reset the game and come back. when i did that both of them had vanished and haven’t come back since. ymmv though this might just be a wholly unrelated glitch that worked in my favor tbh i was playing multiplayer with a friend last night and we agreed it’s kind of fun how insanely buggy it is. it’s such a peculiar combination of buggy and esoteric design that half the time when something goes wrong you’re not sure if it’s a bug or just a bizarre design decision that isn’t explained. it makes me nostalgic for weird half finished PC poo poo we used to play in college

I have the hyperdrive and I'm already in my second system (well, first jump) but I simply got 1 unit of antimatter as a reward during the quest line so now I was expecting to find the BP or to be able to purchase it at terminals but  I hope that the feed-my-alien-pets-mission is not working as a blocker.

The NPC that gives missions also let's you dismiss them. A quick glance at the galaxy map doesn't seem to show much improvement. I still can't just see a list of places I've visited and select them as targets? The game is already tracking them, you can see them in you Discoveries and you can generally see them on the map if you find them, so why not just let me select them from a list. So much of this game still seems designed around pointlessly wasting your time. Like how you can refuel a refiner with a click, but you can't fill the input with a click, you have to hit X. Or inventory management in general really. Also there is no upload all button for discoveries. There is an upload all stellar discoveries button, but that only uploads the planets, not the contents OF those planets. Went on a massive scanning spree? Well now sit there left clicking and hitting E a bunch of times because uploading requires two buttons instead of one. Also gently caress mousewheels! You will scroll with buttons! BUTTONS MORE BUTTONS FOR EVERYTHING. I'm shocked walking doesn't involve pressing buttons for each leg. Duke Chin posted:Is there a good list of poo poo I should keep vs. poo poo I should sell immediately? Since the Next patch I've become a mats queen I generally toss anything I can easily make from common materials if I need space. Other things I sell, even if I am not sure what they do, because so far nothing seems both rare but also important to keep.

Mandrel posted:woah what the gently caress. i’ve just been hitting upload all. are you telling me I’ve got a ton of unclaimed nanites? The prominent upload all button in the lower left only uploads all planets, you also have to hit the separate upload all button for animals, plants, and points of interest- for each planet. And if you got all the animals on a planet, you have to hit a separate "yeah I got all the animals" button for the bonus. It's really bad.

At this rate they might as well add confirmation buttons for every button, and a multilevel EULA for each item you buy off the market.

Yes, but nanites are by far the easiest thing to get in this game. You shouldn't need to (ever?) bother uploading that stuff. I have like 2,000 nanites right now and I've been buying every blueprint and rerolling tons of Upgrade Modules. Seriously nanites are super easy to get.

Once you get upgrades going, nanites become easier and easier to get. But early on scanning can make the difference between getting a sweet S tier upgrade and not. Question: Is the weird buzzing static hum thing I hear a space anomaly? Is there an easy way to find where the damned thing is? I found it by accident but had to reload my save. Hitting my ship scanner isn't doing poo poo.

It's hard to know what's a bug and what isn't. Like, is it a bug or a feature that the guys in space stations aren't selling new blueprints yet? Do I need to advance the story? If so, which one?! Also, when/where do you ever find Emeril and Cadmium? I have the plans for Emeril and Cadmium Drives but I have literally never seen those elements in the New Universe and I have played 30 hours since NEXT patched.

I have stumbled into an ancient temple with six keys and three gravitino balls (two of them underground). Sentinels this time did not follow the me into the tunnels I excavated. (Probably because they didn't even see me picking up the balls).

If so, which one?! One of the colored drives only needs base level mats. I forget which one. Build that, visit that colored star, and collect the element for thr next drive from the planets there. Rinse and repeat until you have them all. Alternatively, buy ships that have them pre-installed. You can get them cheap if you only care about the colored drive and nothing else.

I think I might be stuck unless someone knows how to resolve my current issue. I got my freebie freighter, but when I take my ship off from it it clips into the ceiling and becomes trapped in the geometry instead of leaving through the bay doors. It seems to think I’m on a planet instead of a freighter. Can’t warp or hyperdrive(?) due to freighter proximity. Have tried warping with the freighter itself hoping it would be resolved in a new system, but even though the warp drive is 100% it says I have no fuel. Tried making a manual save in someone else’s game, loading that crashes the game. Not sure what to do - poke around in random player lobbies until it’s fixed? I wanted to spend a few hours tonight with this game and this happens like 15 minutes after firing it up for the day.  I COULD restart but managed to do some item duping and have max inventory slots in all my suit tabs, which goes a long way toward soothing my annoyance with the more grindy parts of the game.

Red stars = Cadmium Green = Emeril Blue = Indium Scan the planets in the system from space and the element should show up corresponding to star type; you mine them from deposits like you would with something like copper or cobalt. Also they convert to chromatic metal increasingly well, with indium giving you 2 for every 1 you put in the refinery and activated indium giving you 4 for every 1.

3 posted:Red stars = Cadmium No seriously guys, I've been to a LOT of Red, Blue and Green stars (if you have the Indium drive you don't need the Emeril or Cadmium) and never saw Emeril or Cadmium listed in a scan of a planet. So I'm just insanely unlucky?  I have found plenty of Indium but I don't have the blueprint for that drive.
