Tarkus posted:Also, the physics of freighter is weird. If you fall of your freighter near a planet you'll fall all the way down to the planet's surface. Not a bug, just interesting. It's less freighter and more space in general, which I learned after teleporting to a player base in another galaxy and also in outer space. The base had no landing pad and was high enough to actually literally count as space, so calling my ship just gave an error message. Since this was a "recommended" player base and I therefore would sooner or later (I don't play multiplayer) lose access to the teleporter, I was a bit frustrated. Then I remembered how space works in NMS and just walked off the edge. After a long fall, I engaged my jetpack just before impact, and made a soft landing, then called my ship and saved. And suddenly, I had a whole new galaxy to explore! Space in NMS is awesome!

I glitch-built my exocraft stations onto my freighter awhile back, and one of the occasionally-fun outcomes of that is "you don't take space vaccuum damage in the minotaur" As long as you're careful about how you orient your freighter with a summon, you can absoutely skyfall not just onto planets, but other freighters and space stations too (the latter, unfortunately, has a big invisible wall on both sides of the entrance so you can't just waltz in, just hang around with your thumb up outside the door)

The only bit of Starfield i want in NMS is the ship builder... even if it's only for fighters i would love it to death.

I still think the way to do custom ship building in NMS is to have to buy or salvage ships, then scrap them to get one of the parts from them. Then build something like a "Ship Construction Bay" in your freighter which allows you to combine them into a whole ship. Maybe you get paints the same way, so to make a fully custom ship just the way you want it involves exploration to find ships with the right parts, and resource gathering to buy or repair them.

Would be very happy with that as well but they haven't gone near ship modding at all for some reason and i do not know why.

Maybe it's going to be a future update? Frieghter talk: Am I right in that there are two types of derelict freighters. One that's destroyed and just kind of environmental storytelling, and one that's mostly intact that you can land on and explore? I've only found the destroyed type.

Yeah right now I've just been going through the base building quests, I've finished overseer, scientist, farmer, and exocraft. Weaponsmith I'm waiting on loving vykeen daggers to progress. I've got about a 100 million credits and 15K nanites and just left the voice of freedom station. I'm probably going to start doing the water quests next.

I'd love it if they copied the ship customization from Everspace 2, it's not as in depth as Starfield, but it let's you chose things like wings, cockpit and tails, plus you change the colour of your ship, its lights and your engine trail.

I don't think I've ever gotten anything as good as an S tier upgrade. Typically two very low bonuses. Are they able to take an upgrade categorey beyond three? Could I have 3 S tier on my scatter gun and 3 sentinel ones?

They're like X-tiers, they usally roll low but can roll pretty high at something like a 1-in-20 rate. I usually wait until I have a bunch, then install literally all of them at once and scrap the bad ones.

considering it's just a jpeg and a dollar value, i wish they would extend the garbage crafting trees until can build a $4.whatever billion dollar item and then load my ships with them, or make them useful to construct some multi-billion dollar base item so i can build a base consisting of them. Being a space billionaire is cool, but you know what would be 1000 times cooler? being a space trillionaire.

Just picked up the game, after some very high intensity soulslikes and metroidvanias I thought I'd like some more chill busywork / collecting / exploration and possibly some co-op as well, since a lot of my friends have the game. I've been reading some starting tips but here's one about co-op: is it more or less a host join thing or do everyone get shared progress? If I invite someone over, can they keep materials they collect etc. or quest advance?

The exception is Nexus missions, and Derelict Freighters, which have shared progress.

So I just got my first freighter and a few questions: I understand that if I want to use it as mobile storage, I need to install a special upgrade? Which I don't have the materials for, I assume I have to loot other derelict freighters? And another one: I tried the base building in the freighter and all I could do were endless maze like corridors. Do I need another upgrade for it to build a simple, large open room?

I keep forgetting freighters have hyperdrives. Mostly, I just summon them to wherever I go. That's mobile storage enough for me.

Which I don't have the materials for, I assume I have to loot other derelict freighters? 1. Yes, you'll want the storage teleportation module to be able to make proper use of remote storage. You can unlock it via a console on the freighter; the currency for it can come from several sources but I think the fastest way nowadays is fishing for mission rewards? Someone can sanity check me on that, I haven't had to do those since "shooting your own freighter" was the meta 2. If you're building rooms instead of corridors, most of them should connect to each other to allow for large but flat 1 story rooms. If all you have is corridors, check the same upgrade console on your freighter as 1-- there should be options for blueprints for more rooms using the same currency as above. I think the plain-rear end rooms are all "expansion rooms" of various themes. If you're looking for wide open 2+ story arboretum-style stuff, people create things that appear to be that with tricks that involve just making the outside look like it's inside-- walls around an empty space with "internal" doors that are really external airlocks, supplemented with decorations and usually at least some glitch building.

Currently the game abstracts away a lot of the traveling that would need to be done by things you own that you aren’t actively using. Your active spaceship follows you around like a puppy even though I’m hopping through teleporters in stations. Your freighter can be summoned to your system. Probably ground vehicles too but I don’t use those.

Further, the mech is absolutely worthwhile and changes everything about how fun being on the ground is.

I'd put money on it just because they've done it every year prior, but I haven't heard anything official yet-- HG tends to drop stuff with 24 hours of lead time max, and given their birth in the flames of overhyping and underdelivering I can't really blame them for sticking to the polar opposite

Some wild new poo poo coming to NMS, like a three second clip in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPgdHZn3hs0 And the NEW GAME HG has been working on, Light No Fire https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKQem4Z6ioQ With a massive procedurally generated "Earth" for multiplayer purposes. Very No Man's Sky in a nice way.
