I spent some time last night looking for a home for my base (survival save) and I found a beautiful lush planet that looked like it wouldn't be constantly trying to roast, freeze or poison me. I landed in a lovely green area full of life and hopped out... Run! RUN!!! Back to irradiated hellstorms I suppose

Anyone run into random people lately? I met one rando on the first day who started shooting at me and I had no weapon so I quit. Then I played for a bit with network play off. I turned it back on and uploaded my base, but I haven't run into anyone else since.

Zaa Boogie posted:And you can send stuff to them from anywhere in the same system It's more complicated and weird than that. There are 10 storage containers you unlock as part of the basebuilding quest, numbered 0 to 9, so that's 50 additional stacks of 1000. You can build 1 of each per base and copies of each container in different bases share inventories. You can send stuff to storage containers from anywhere in the universe but you don't pick which one it goes to, it fills up the lowest numbers first and then moves on to higher (so when you go to retrieve it you may have to check several containers before you find it). You can only get stuff out of a container by going to the (well, a) base it's in and using it. You can use this to get stuff out of your freighter without having to land there because the freighter can send directly to the container even though it can't send directly to your suit.

Freighters have a very short jump range. Get some hyperdrive upgrades on a ship, economy and conflict scanners, and have the luxury of warping 600+ ly searching for the perfect system. Only end up using like 10% warp fuel per jump with good modules and you can just summon the freighter to you when you find a home.

So when they said one of each at a base they meant you could have multiple copies of 0-9 at every base and your frigate? That's... that's WAY better than what I was thinking!

You can build 1 each of containers 0-9, so 10 containers per base and they all have to be unique numbers. At another base you get another set of 0-9 but they're identical to the ones in the first base. 10 containers is the total extra inventory you can build per save slot and you can access them from any base where they're built.

Yeah, that's what I meant by multiple copies. That you can have a set at every base. I am good with that.

Yeah I crafted the V2 pass and all yo get is access to a 2nd room in operation centers and inside them are basically little farms you can harvest for some materials you probably already have a ton of. Kinda disappointing.

How much was it because I want something like that so bad right now and need a goal that isn't just "get money" or "improve stuff." Also as an aside, do I ever learn how to make technology modules or microprocessors? If yes is it random or is there a specific path I can go down to get them faster?

Post-patch PS4- Frigates are still damaged, but only showing "0" damaged modules instead of "1" now, so I guess that's progress, maybe? Attempting to find distress signals is still bugged for me as well. It's forcing me to find the same abandoned building over and over, gives me the same message, then just some nanites. My guess is that I somehow skipped this earlier on in my save and got the blueprint elsewhere, and thus now it's stuck thinking I don't have it when I do. Pretty god drat frustrating.

In space if you hold brake (L2 on ps4) you will end up reversing. It's ok advice I guess but most of the reason it's good is so you can turn around faster to catch someone who just made a head to head pass on you and shoot them in the back. Also this doesn't happen in atmosphere, you always have a minimum forward speed afaict

I wish space combat actually felt like space combat. I should be able to spin my ship and keep with momentum goddammit. Beyond that I would settle for ships not being able to cheat by loving shooting me without actually facing me.

Just picked up this game to play multiplayer with a friend, chose Survival mode because we want something more challenging than "a chill exploration experience", but both of our experiences have been: spawn in some toxic/flaming world, and either die from the environment not having any idea what to do about it, or get blown up by drones. Is picking survival a stupid idea for a new player?

It's not worth picking in general considering much of the game is broken to the point that tons of things might kill you that shouldn't, and other stuff that would help you might not work.

ToastyPotato posted:Good poo poo, but at the same time I feel like I will almost never have the will and motivation to actually go through with this. I do this pretty consistently. If you start flying backwards before the pirates jump in, they will always appear directly in front of you and I can usually kill a couple of them with missiles before they get close enough to even shoot me. When they get in range I just keep it in reverse and try to target them. It makes them easy to find and shoot but you do take more damage so upgrading your shield is a good idea. Also, with a big stack of whatever refills shields you are pretty much invincible if you just keep refilling your shield when it goes down.

I found the coolest place, a "Glassy" planet. Dead silent with really unnerving, but chill ambient music, no life, barely any plants, but it did have these:  Floating mineral formations that give Ferrite Dust. They even reflect sunlight really intensely.  Bonus Freighter picture:
