So, a frigate I had needed repairs. I landed on it, got out of my ship to suss out what the damage was and accidentally fell off the side to my death. I fell off the side of a large spaceship in space and fell in space to my death. Not even towards a planet or anything, just straight down till it decided that was far enough, now you are dead. Then my grave was on the other side of the solar system. On a side note, is there a way to fire frigates?

I haven't tested this yet but I want to get rid of my frigate covered in slow ladders.

i kind of want to just give up and do a creative run and screw around cause inventory issues + travel times + constantly having to source fuel + UI fiddlyness in general and also not being able to flag/keep track of POIs, its all kind of adding up to me not really bothering to do any fun base building or exploring anytime i find a new little spot to set up at i then spend the same amount of time finding, refining, crafting everything again as i did for my first base and ive found it more useful just sticking with relic hunting so i actually have cash and just buying everything and since its hard to really keep track of a spot (as far as i know??) unless you build a base at the location most planets are now just pretty distractions that i zoom into, find my relic/ scan some stuff then leave and never really revisit

I've been playing quite a bit and luckily the only bug I've run into is seeing the clouds from inside the freighter when I call it to the atmosphere of a moon Seeing people get histrionic over the fundamentals of the early-game in the survival genre never get old tho. Does anyone else remember their first 5~10 hours with Minecraft and alt+tabbing out to a wiki with all of the crafting recipes, NMS has everything laid out in the tutorial section of the start menu which thankfully wasn't edited by an 11 year old If you're going to fight sentinels just use your the mining tool to make a couple of wide and tall pillars as a makeshift arena. You'll have cover from all of the sentinels including the walkers and you can give them the run around while dodging the lasers Also the walkers have armor pieces that fall off pretty easily. Walkers are easy to kill just by themselves on flat open terrain, when they charge up just get right under them and walk around beneath their legs. They cannot crush you so just keep running under their legs and shooting up their crotch Game is good

Also having read some posts Cobalt is ALWAYS in caves. Navigational data in the form of paperweights are almost everywhere, in the tiny two cabin settlements near the window of whatever cabin didn't have nanites, next to NPC's in the outposts on land (the ones with a single landing pad, NPC, store, random weapon) and the puzzle outposts. They're usually on tables nearby the NPC. They're on the space stations too, usually in front of the tech vendors. I know a lot of this stuff is repeated but scanning the past couple of pages I see a lot of the same questions being asked over again

I'd love a game mode like creative but where I can still be damaged by the environment and still have to grind for materials and money, with basically no sentinels. I just want to lazily explore a galaxy with threats to my life but no combat.

So what's the point of tagging a point of interest if it doesn't stay visible? I found a drop pod with a broken suit upgrade in it. I had all the stuff to repair it except, ironically, some Oxygen, so I highlighted the Drop pod icon and held X, since that always seemed to keep stuff visible. I went to the nearby trade outpost (same planet!) and bought my Oxygen, only to discover that my nav point was gone. Mind you, the nav point to the abandoned building on another planet that had deadly monster eggs outside it and was full of infested machinery that was part of the tutorial quest is still showing up and confusing me too, so I don't know what the gently caress is up.

Had 70 hours logged before Next, just went over 100 last night. In all that time this is the worst/best time I've had with a station's tractor beam correcting my approach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me3Dm0xVxdk Bullfrog posted:Hello Games should 1. fix the bugs but then 2. do a whole bunch of tiny little updates that just add tons of possible encounters and discoverable structures etc I believe they've said this is their plan actually, although 2 might be more along the line of community events and such. Also I think I've finally settled on how I want my character to look:  Saiyan armor's neat, but I'll stick with TV Boy for the foreseeable future.

On keeping your launch thrusters fueled - most sites have either a landing pad or a energy pylon looking thing to land at. There'll be a circle that turns green when you get close enough to land in. You don't use fuel taking off from these. The launch thrusters can also be refueled with uranium so when you find a planet that it's easy to harvest on fill up a cargo slot in the ship with it and you won't have to worry about launch fuel for a long, long time. I don't bother with upgrades to them because I really don't find refueling them a big deal.

It's almost always 90%+ more expensive, but they stack in groups of 20 so you can scan some creatures and just stack up on 20-40 cans of fuel to not have to worry about it for ~10 hours.

Breaking one takes a while, but it'll give you basically an entire stack of Uranium.

You can buy launch fuel pretty much everywhere. It’s like 40-50k but it’s worth it for the convenience of not having to bother with crafting it. Also apparently there’s modules to further decrease the cost so I’m going to have to look for those ASAP.

So is everything completely random, or does stuff scale, or do things get more difficult as you keep going further from where you started the game? I like traveling around everywhere but I'm kind of tired of seeing galaxies where every planet is just terrible I've also been sticking to mostly Gek galaxies just because I have way more words for them than the other races. And also obviously the Vy'keen suck

So it seems like the only way I can access new blueprints on the analyser is by buying older ones, is this right? I unlock this green light decoration, and it frees up a slot so now I can add a metal t-shaped corridor.

Are you ever able to buy S (or even A) level blueprints for things like scanner mods, weapon mods, thruster mods, etc? The mods themselves seem pretty common at S rank so it's not a huge deal but I wouldnt' mind the blueprints for better ones. I bought everything the space station merchants had and it doesn't ever seem to be changing.

I did this with my starting frigate, which had negative combat and limped back from any time guys looked at them askance. They failed scanning a rock so badly that they made micro black holes appear through the entire ship and it took ages to find the platinum to repair the damage. Their final swan song was taking a sack of money that had a tracking beacon in it, given their competence I like to imagine it was beeping and flashing.
