Yeah, I remember that, or did right after I'd done my first swap because my first old freighter didn't have anything except the stock hyperdrive in it and that worked fine, I got the prompt and everything. On the second I left it empty again and didn't get the prompt and lost the base. I guess that is a good way to get the odds in your favor though.

Should I start this expedition in VR if I haven't really messed around with VR nms yet? Since expeditions usually go through the tutorials etc.

Anyone having trouble with their freighter trade terminals? I can't interact with any on any save since this update.

I've picked NMS up for the first time since 2018, and man the game has improved a lot. For one thing I get more than 20 FPS  I got my first freighter last night, following the advice of "take cash for rescuing the first freighter you find, as the second one you rescue will be a lot bigger" and landed myself a cool gray Venator-like ship... which promptly turned mustard yellow when I teleported away and came back  I might just quickly change my difficulty settings to get the freighter paints for free to fix that bullshit.How do I get more technology slots for my suit? All the upgrades I've found have been for inventory. Have I just had bad luck?

Space stations in particular are very prone to crashing. Holding my breath every time I pop in to sell something because more than half the time after the transaction the second I turn away from the vendor or terminal the game shits its pants. Unrelated, but is there any particular gain for maxing out the specific reputation requirements for each race/guild? I have the merchant, mercenary and explorer guilds done, along with the Korvax. For the Vy'keen I still need to kill a few sentinel walkers and smuggle a few million units worth of contraband for the Gek but after completing the Korvax one I got nothing. No items or title or anything, unlike for maxing out friendship with all of them. I'm guessing they're all there just so you have something to do?

For me it was always a balance between being good enough friends, then raiding their freighters if I needed something (frigate modules) and couldn’t be bothered to get it any other way. Or if I wanted to fight it out with sentinel forces and show my rear end to their cruiser futurama-style after shooting off all of its guns.

I never bothered upgrading many of my exocrafts, so as soon as I'm done with this expedition (currently on phase 5), that's what I'm going to focus on. I want my awesome speeder bike and hulking mech death machine

As an aside, I think I have to play multiplayer (from the first menu) to be able to get the nexus missions for the new stuff, right? I've been playing single-player and warping in the Anomaly and doing the nexus missions from there, but I haven't seen anything that would indicate any of the Fractal release stuff.

unruly posted:I had a bit of a time trying to figure this out. It defaults to the inventory section, but you can mouse up to the technology part to install it there, instead. Not very intuitive, but I think in previous versions the UI for tech and inventory were entirely shared, so there might be a technical reason behind it. You need to talk to the Quicksilver vendor. The twitch drops and rewards from the expedition are available there, not through the nexus.

Also to actually unlock the Fractal helmet/ship you need to do the Expedition, which requires starting a new save with the Expedition game type. Once they're unlocked you can get them from the Quicksilver vendor in any save.

That would explain why I couldn't find any technology upgrades then, thanks! Also I've logged in today and my freighter has changed colours again, and is now blue. It's still grey on the inventory screen. I haven't moved it since getting it and the lighting in the system it's in is neither of those colours

ughhhh posted:Should I start this expedition in VR if I haven't really messed around with VR nms yet? Since expeditions usually go through the tutorials etc. Yes, this is a fairly low-key expedition, so it's a good opportunity to get into the VR. NMS VR is pretty great at this point, it used to be jank as gently caress but since 4.0 it's been smoothed out considerably.

And has anyone gotten speech to text to work? Playing it in VR so no keyboard. Can't find anything about this online, only regular voice chat. I have it enabled in the game. Tried talking when hanging out in the space anomaly, and when I did my first multiplayer mission, but it didn't seem to work.

I had some wild bug that made my ship keep doing vertical loops in the atmosphere. Might have had something to do with steam. But when I restarted the game to see if that alone would fix it, I had a debug menu, but, unfortunately I couldn't click on anything in it because the problem was probably caused by steam big picture.

Whatever generic FidelityFX-like option was available under TAA in the graphics settings, it's gone now. FidelityFX is all there is, and it doesn't run nearly as well as the old setting, and it also has this weird graphical glitch where the top left quarter of the screen is often pixelated. Granted, I'm on an old machine I put together in 2013  , and I'm sure my sad edge case can take a hike, but dang it, I'd made my peace with this game's mostly-ok performance.

I'm still kind of new to the game. I visited another players base I saw on the list of player bases at the anomaly portal, and saw that other players had built bases on the same planet. Are there any designated planets where lots of players go to build bases for a co-op experience? Is the galactic hub the thing I should be checking out for that? I'd love to be on a planet where i'm encountering other players. Also, killing sentinels with your minotaur helping you, looks pretty awesome in VR.
