Just a heads up for people using the GOG version, I think you can update using >>151839020


Don't overwrite the .exe or any other files, just get what's inside "GAMEDATA\PCBANKS" and overwrite in your game directory, make a backup of that file if you want in case shit goes wrong. I replaced it and noticed a increase in performance, no problems with save game too since you don't replace the .exe

Why does every fucking planet look like this? You land, and that's what the planet looks like. There aren't different zones on planets. You will never fly around a planet and find a big mountain range: either the entire planet is mountainy, or basically none of it is. If there isn't snow where you land, there isn't any anywhere on the planet. All you have to do is walk 10 minutes and you've essentially seen the whole planet. Why no planets with forests, mountain ranges, proper rivers? Yeah, there are forest planets, but no planets that have a forested area in the east, and maybe a mountain range at the poles. They're all one note. it sucks ass.

Post the largest creatures you've seen. I want to know if giant creatures even fucking exist in this shit game. We saw plenty in the trailers, but I'm 20 hours in and the largest thing I've seen is around 10-12 feet tall.

There was an explanation, I don't know if just conjecture or coming from an interview, but regardless quite believable: they didn't want people to stick for too long on a single planet, but rather have them jump often.

Earth is actually a pretty rare breed with an axis that takes it back and forth for winter/summer. Look at mars for example. That shit is barren constantly. Venus a foggy mess, there will be no seasons.

I could see if it was a planet that didnt rotate, it would have two sides be very different, but a rock that close to a sun will be cooked, and stay cooked.

Colorful mining simulator was your dream game?

>>151850864
It's so you don't have to land in specific places on a planet, you can find the same resources/environment etc. wherever you land on the planet. Also encourages you to go to lots of different planets. Instead of just flying to the north/south pole you have to find a cold planet and shit.

>>151851473
The game you always wanted has dozens of alien bases on every planet, all of which are identical? Even though they're from different races? Weird.

>>151851398
That's climate though. He was also talking about geology. Especially a planet with water should have tectonic plates, mountain ranges and stuff like that.
Also, we're getting scientifically accurate here so it doesn't matter much as far as NMS is concerned, but a planet without seasons is probably tidally locked, and so it should be half frozen. None of the planets in NMS are tidally locked.

I know the game tells you itself during the Atlas path that the journey is more important, but I just really want to reach the center as quickly as possible and then explore from there.

But advice to all: if you want to just casually explore, focus on upgrading your hyperdrive so you can see the more unique and varied planets.

Who else fucking HATES the way the NPC "intelligent aliens" are handled. There is always one in every trade post/space station/etc. Always just one, and they never move or do anything, just stand there. They aren't characters, they're stupid guessing games/dialogue puzzles.

NPC ships land and takeoff like fucking crazy at space stations but you will never ONCE see an alien actually get out of or into one.

THat's specifically it. NMS isn't meant to scientifically accurate. We have SpaceEngine for that.

The climates of the planets literally have nothing to do with their distance from their star. They are also so insanely close together that gravity would be fucked.

Also the game doesn't have gravity.

Fucking shit, I've scanned down three crashed ships on this planet and they've all been equal or worse than the one I'm piloting.

I put about 10 hours into the pirated game and my friend asked if it was worth buying. I was trying to think of my favorite parts of the game, and I was shocked to find that my favorite part is how you can go from space to planets without cutscenes or anything. that shit is genuinely very cool.

Too bad it gets old after the 4th or 5th time

Crashed ships will NEVER have more than 1 extra inventory slot. I.e. if you current ship has 20 slots, it's legit impossible to find a crashed ship with more than 21 slots. The only way to really upgrade is to buy one.

It would be cool that you can buy ships off NPCs if there was also like, a spaceship garage/store. the fact that it's the ONLY way to buy ships is fucking bizarre

What transition? Meanwhile going to a planet means watching different image layers peel away. This is a far cry from the smooth transitions we saw in the first trailer.

I love the game, but this really is toned down.

>>151852371

More aliens would be nice, but it seems like the idea is that they're just too busy to be anywhere. I wish you could find some just out on the planets away from outposts sometimes. Maybe violent ones or black market traders. This world is nearly completely void of intelligent life. No wonder history was lost. No one ever steps outside.

This is certainly not it.

What's worse, you won't get anything for your current ship.

>>151852185
Take a look a the ships. The technology. The colors used on the ships. It's retro as fuck.

>>151852893

Name one game with realistic generated space that isn't so limited that every player will visit every planet.

You have to be able to land on these planets and walk around them as well. Planets so large it's impossible to walk the entire surface on foot.

>>151852615

Always have heridium, plutonoum, and thamium9.

I also recommend holding on to a full stack of rare minerals if you're able. My current upgrade needs 600 nickel and 600 aluminium and suddenly they just don't exist anywhere.

>>151852915
But you bought starbound so you might as well kill yourself.

>>151853096
Not him, but you're right: people saying the game isn't realistic need to shut up; the game is trying to be like 70s sci-fi art. And if it was, that would be fucking AWESOME.

But it's not, it completely failed in that goal. Just look at your picture! It shows a grassy plain near a forest, with a snow mountain in the distance.

This would be completely fucking impossible to find in NMS. At best you'd find a plain planet and then a forest planet and then a snowy mountain planet. But there's no geographical variety like you see in 70s sci-fi art.

>>151853178

Nah, you're right but if one planet had multiple biomes you'd be more inclined to just sit on it instead of jetting out. It's one of the few bits of subtle game design the game gets right.

Overlook nothing. Visor out at all times. Sometimes you think you've already scanned something and you are wrong.

Also, anyone know hownmany kinds of sentinels there are? I've only seen the guilty spark clones and the robopups.

>>151853498
That's such a shit defense. "The planets are intentionally one-note and boring so you don't stay on them long!" Terrible, terrible argument for a game whose only selling point is "cool stuff 2 look at"

>>151853791

I'm kind of glad none of them are overly exciting since you'll never manage to find them again...

Need teleporters. What is this portal shit I hear about that apparently exists on every planet? Are they just unfinished and used as ruins?

>>151852909
Well that's the thing- I'm at 19, and the three I found, (now 4), were at 18 & 19.

>>151853498
Wouldn't the game just be better if there were biomes on planets though? I don't see the negative. In a free form exploration game, jet out and find another interesting planet if you want to, stick around if you don't.

Can't see how it would be worse than the current system of "all planets are boring, walk 5 minutes and you've seen the whole planet" affair. If the planets gonna be so consistent, with no biomes, like they are now, they might as well be super Mario Galaxy sized planets.

Have buildings increase production of a specific resource on the planet each day. Limit of 2-4 buildings.
Silicates, oxides, each category. Think 0.5 or something per building, so no one colony will ever give you very much at all. Maybe double that for common elements, halve it for rares, and you have to choose which type the building is harvesting.

Hook them all up to your freighter, and then you just need a new game mechanic to spend the dosh & resources on in the long-term.
Would be cool if they let you view the manifest from each of your colonies, what they produced each week.

Honestly that's a good point but base building goes against every component of this game's gameplay. Up this point it's always been "move forward and don't go back", lessening the value of potential biomes. If they add more incentives to stay put, the argument for biomes will be stronger. But that would be a fucking stupid move on their part trying to do a complete 180 on the games direction.

>>151856880
No one because it's not like you'll run out of opportunities.

Why do people want Base building? Especially if there's no multiplayer


Make buildings different so they don't all look the same, animal behaviour more interesting, make portals do something, maybe add actual rivers/lava and waterfalls.. If that's possible

Customisation on ships and your suit maybe, so there's something more to look forward to other than an extra slot

Make it not look like complete shit on pc even with everything set to high

i think you fucked up. talking to atlas and deciding on following the path or explore freely is important.

Well I went to try & find a rough measure of The Matador there, uninstalled the tank boosters & started jetting up. Figured I'd blow a hole at the standard jetpack max height.
And wouldn't you know it, I discovered something:

You can climb shear faces without consuming any jetpack fuel.

I don't think I got a free warp cell until a while later at one of the atlas monoliths after choosing freely.

Honestly I have had no trouble playing freely and am having fun exploring. My main gripe is how the scanner seems to be shit at accuracy. I have a +2 and +3 on my multitool and it can go super far and it constantly doesn't find points of interest ?'s. I also do fly bys over the ground traveling point to point fast and constantly see visible landing spots and waypoints the scanner didn't hit. It's rather annoying.

>sometimes the game won't register blueprints you've got
>acquired warp drive theta and +3 boost for the jetpack 3 times already
>it says I already have it each time
>can't craft it because it doesn't show up

On a side note, the HUD is intrusive as fuck and sometimes the "scanner recharging" message won't disappear for a long long time. There isn't even an option to remove the HUD, which is like the first thing you do in a fucking "exploration" game.

How fucking incompetent can the developers be really?

I have the same issue but worse, its on jetpack+2. I have +1 on me, but i don't have the mats for +3 yet, and 2 has been acquired twice yet I cannot see it to make it, so I can't even chain it to 1 for now to increase my mobility.

Imagine playing it at 3am in VR and you are orbiting a planet mining when suddenly you start getting scanned and two guys show up to attack you when you've never been in space combat and your ship isn't prepared.

That was the first time I died and I am both happy I finally got some action, but also mad as fuck since I wasn't remotely prepared and it came out of nowhere. I got one to half HP but my controllers weren't tight enough to suddenly take 2 ships on with my barely existent shields.

I've been enjoying the Korvax storyline, but reading and finding all these on top of trying to make money and get better gear is a hassle, and I feel like I need to proceed deeper to find some of these more expensive materials for my upgrades.

They kept saying in the previews how they didn't want base building ebcause they dont want people to stay in one place, yet its very hard to keep moving without skipping shit.

You guys are all aware that sprint>melee>jet pack is the fastest way to move around right? And that you can just let go of the multitool beam for a second and resume without ever waiting for the cooldown? Honestly if they patch these out I'm done.

So much weird amateur shit going on in this game. Boltfire mode does not automatically reload but the grenades do. Sentinels attack you for mining anything but will always leave you alone when collecting any of the big rare element pillars. 30% of the time you take off from the surface your ship flys straight up into space. I'm having fun but there's so many strange quirks.

Nah, I think the blue one is laser strength. Also it appears those bars sometimes display differently between initially looking at the weapon and the comparison screen, I just checked two screenshots I had of one gun and the laser strength bar is gone in the comparison screen for some reason. Also I've only ever seen them min or max, I could be wrong about it being laser strength but it only showed up on mine after I buffed the laser with some combat modules (which you have one of but no blue, and it's not related to the railshot because the other one doesn't have that).

On the analysis icon, the outer ring is scanner strength and the inner ring is whether it has an analysis visor (which has no upgrades).

On the grenade the inner blue ring is how far you can chuck them, not sure what middle and outer are but I'm going to guess green (middle) is damage and outer is misc. upgrades or something.

Middle green bar of the gun icon is damage I think and red is fire rate but I might have that backwards.

On the laser I think the inner is "intensity" and outer is "focus," which are similar but one (I forget which) is specifically for taking out pillars and rocks, but I could be wrong.

Regardless, like I said they're based on your modules so you can just determine by those, and unless I'm way off there's no rings to show coolant rate, nor does it reveal nuances like installed ammo modules (like rapidfire, ricochet, scattershot or railshot), plus it's bugged and a bar will sometimes change between one screen and the next, so I would just judge by the modules and ignore the rings.

I just went to another system and there's a fight between two massive ships and some pirates but it doesn't matter if I try to help them by killing the pirates, the fucking ships keep shooting at me. What the fuck do I do? Just watch? There's a distress signal on one of the ships.

Do giant creatures even exist?

Don't feed me any shit Sean Murray the liar said about bigger creatures near the center, I want pictures. 15 hours in and I haven't seen anything over 10ft, tons of giant creatures in the trailers

I still can't use it though because then the game fuck up my custom FOV settings by setting them back to 100.

Getting to the center of Euclid Galaxy spits you into some other dimension that's basically the same as the start, I'm aware of that. But has anyone gotten to the center of Galaxy 2? What happens, restart again? Are there differences between starting Galaxy and Galaxy+ ?

Sometimes they have the one that looks more like a space helmet, the bubble is the best tho.

>>151858068
It's random like everything else.

One tip I can give is that you can save scum tool models, though it's weird.

Basically if you see a tool and you don't dig it, you can save, quit, start the game again and it will be rerolled with different model and different modules and number of slots. However, if you restart again, or even if you save and THEN restart again, it will still be whatever it rerolled as. No idea why it is this way but if I had to guess I'd say it's because the seed somehow comes from its geographical relation to the coordinates the planet loaded at.

The monoliths just give you the next segment of the system's race story no matter where you find it. You can jump around the Galaxy like a madman, and the net monolith you find in a Korvax system will give you the same excerpt as if you had stayed put.

Also it helps to not focus on them. I really like the story too but I try to let it come naturally. Like pretty much anything in this game if you try to focus it out it gets very tedious really fast.

Take off the Railshot Adapter mod, the Boltcaster mod with the red laser. Whatever that is, or does (I honestly noticed it doing nothing to my Mining Laser nor my Boltcaster), it jumped all of my Mining circles up incredibly, but I saw no particular difference. Also, it stacked (green outline) when placed next to a Mining mod, even though it was next to a Boltcaster mod.

I think that mod is a combat-laser mod, and not a Boltcaster mod.

I saw one of those giant biped mechas from the trailers but I'm an idiot and didn't take a screenshot.

Otherwise biggest I've found is this bananafaced guy, he's a bit over ten feet tall I think. Mecha was much taller though, it was a bit taller than the conifers on the planet I found it on. Pretty spooky, it showed up during an alert while I was raiding one of those places where you have to blast open the door. I walked out and just saw it stalking through the woods toward the facility and booked it to my ship.

All he has to do is tuck himself in his ship every couple minutes. When he goes to get heridium he can just carve a little cave in it before mining it and sprinting back. Even if he dies he can just walk over and pick it all back up.

W-why? Granted I have to running back and forth between the ship and random resources to refill the toxic protection or how it's called. but the fauna is pretty interesting so far. Also, those ships are only decoration of I can interact with them once I repaired my ship?

But the /v/ knowledge came from a dev interview saying that there was not going to be meetings, but only the ability to visit other players' discoveries.
Did they just not know the fuck they were developing all the time, or people took the words of an old as hell interview and disregarded all the new stuff?

>Whatever that is, or does (I honestly noticed it doing nothing to my Mining Laser nor my Boltcaster), it jumped all of my Mining circles up incredibly, but I saw no particular difference.
It does make a huge difference, not entirely positive but positive overall. Makes the laser mine way faster, makes it do about 4x damage (it's not a boltcaster mod, it's a laser mod that is meant to REPLACE the boltcaster), makes it heat up faster and use more energy (presumably to make it less ridiculously OP), makes the laser do physical damage (it can destroy doors and titanium barrels) and most importantly turns the laser red so it goes faster. It's pretty much crucial if you plan on going without a boltcaster longterm, and I'm pretty sure it's both actually stronger than a boltcaster and has longer max range.

Also even without it I had the full blue bar on the weapon icon with no weapon mods.With a boltcaster and no laser combat mods I had no blue bar.

>>151860827

It's not the end, but you can start seeing black holes on your map which is a large help for reaching the end. Just grab a black hole whenever you near one instead of warping passed it.

>>151860909
If by interact you mean shoot, yeah. But that's it. They're just ships, not actually AI. They're empty. You constantly see ships land and take off from space stations and trading posts but you'll never see a pilot get into or out of one

It's the 1080p resolution really upscaled? Because it's looks way too fucking blurry.

>>151861314
1080p on PC looks blurry as well, though.

>>151860708
Bald faced.

>>151861092
It isn't upscaled, it has FXAA (ie a fucking glorified BLUR FILTER, like running a photoshop convolve tool over the whole image at low intensity) that you have to actually restart the game to turn off even though it doesn't tell you, and turning it off obviously gives you jaggies. Aliasing and upscaling are not inherently related.

Actually downscaling would be your best bet at making it look less trash, but the game has enough performance issues for most people as-is.

So, what is the actual purpose of the game? Is there an objective or a story?

Or do you just wander and aimlessly mine etc? Sounds a bit shit desu

>>151861458
Something he sure ain't, he rocks that massive numale beard like he thinks it looks good or something.

>>151860581
I sprint-jet-meleed my way back to my ship and took off once because of something like that. Probably 25 feet tall, looked like a wolf with hooves and eye stalks.
Wouldn't leave me alone and just fucking stood outside my ship until I left.

>tfw stuck with Sigma drive

Can you actually pick up the improved hyperdrive mods or do you have to buy ships with them already installed?

>>151861674
>just wander and aimlessly mine
This.

>>151861714
You can pick them up but the theta bugs out for a lot of people and when they find it it tells them they already have it.

>>151861674
You wander and there is a story you can do and lore text you can find and also things you can collect on planets to upgrade your gear or sell to buy a co ship. Also comfy spot hunting.

>>151861714
I have a 48 slot ships and I've never seen a ship with tau or theta reactor already installed.

Complete quests for aliens, they don't have the blueprint bug that wall blueprints do, for some reason tau and theta are flipped in the code, theta can't go to blue while tau can go to all.

If you're on GOG, you need to have the game authenticate with Galaxy at least once.

>>151861674

Story is digging up the truth of the universe and finding the core of the galaxy because with all this technology no one ever made a telescope.

Also mysterious Atlas and lost history.

Then you find out that The world is a big simulation, and you are just a fated observer.

>>151861889
I just saw one with tau already installed about an hour ago, but I also already had tau installed, so it may be based on which reactors you have to encourage the retarded ship buying cycle where you never get to keep and upgrade a ship you actually like the look up.

>>151860486
Although I do want it more than anything, I didn't expect it to be multiplayer. I had, however, expected to be able to actually share my experiences with friends without resorting to shitting screenshots. Tell them hey this is a cool planet check it out and they could.

Very high if you stay in the same system, the same ten or so ships will always come to a given space station.

Yes.

>>151863051
If you need a fresh system, then yes. You probably don't have reactor upgrades, so you won't get much closer to the core, a couple cells wouldn't be a big loss.

is this babu gaem? why no shoot

So do you encounter planets named by other players regularly in game?

To be able to listen to an audiobook my mind needs to be completely blank, otherwise I miss things. In this game I'm constantly looking around for animals, interesting minerals, what I need, what I don't, what I can sell, the distance of the outpost. It's too busy.

>>151863708
A little of column a and a little of column b. Like >>151864492 I mute most games but because they usually have annoying or shitty soundtracks, this one is mostly ambient stuff so it's not so bad though. Currently listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWy8nONlh_Q which I guess doesn't fit the tone of the game terribly well.

>>151864887
>This game is nothing like the trailers
Apart from graphics, how isn't it? It's nothing like what people read into trailers and nowhere near as good as the devs repeatedly said while showing the trailers, but the trailers pretty clearly show a game where you just fly around looking at different things.

Still using the pre-order ship, several hours into the game and have a few million credits.

Doesn't seem like there's really any reason to upgrade, only so you can fit more useless resources into your inventory so you can sell them to buy a ship with more slots to put even more useless resources in to sell to get another ship with more slots, etc.

Also, is there any reason to waste slots on environmental protection? Seems you have to be a retard to die to it since every planet has literal tonnes of plutonium and other shit behind every rock to recharge it. None of the water planets have oceans deep enough to require an upgrade, etc.

I guess space combat upgrades might be useful, but even then, why would you bother engaging in it since there's no reward?

Pic unrelated, popped up in a system scan for some reason. Seen rocks of this resource before but this one literally goes 200 feet under ground and is about 200 feet tall. Going to mine it, jump into the black hole in the same system, and then I think I'll have done everything that I can be bothered to do in this game. Glad I didn't pay for it.

Also, my game is on max and it still looks like absolute dogshit. I'm yet to run into a planet that actually has any grass like they show in the steam screenshots. Everything has massive jaggies, etc. What the fuck is going on?

Anyone else notice how the Sentinel AI is so dumb it can't go around buildings? Hello Games is a joke.

spoilers about the center it's literally nothing but a new game where you start over equipment wise. Non spoilers, no. It's just a fucking bitch to make any progress, I've been playing since release and am only 65k Light years away from the center. your warp drive(s) will take you LINEAR distance of 1.5k but likely not center distance 1.5k the BH will take you 2k center distance and like 100k+ linear it seems. So I mean, if you can afford repairs keep doing black holes as they are quicker. though they break my warp drive upgrades fucking constantly so I don't bother with them. but I'm not trying to get to the center anymore after learning what it is/does.
So no. Also atlas v2/v3 are from manufacturing facilities but they do fuck all I believe.

I read something about a trick to change your ships model while maintaining it's inventory.

Something with saving and loading, can /nmsg/ confirm?
