+wongojack Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I kinda bought a PS4 to play this game after the first big round of updates. I found a video that was very helpful for beginners. This isn't it, but it has a lot of the same tips: https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/no-mans-sky-14-essential-beginners-tips/2900-824/15/ One big tip one was knowing how to travel around large planets. There are 3 speeds for your ship. One is just cruising around in the atmosphere. The second is like an interplanetary speed. A good rule is that if the estimated time to a destination is more than 5 mins then leave the atmosphere and go interplanetary as it will be faster. The third speed is for travelling between systems or longer distances. Haven't touched it in some time now . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agamon Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 This update looks fantastic. https://www.nomanssky.com/beyond-update/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agamon Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Inventory spots are increasing from 250 to 10000! Seems excessive, but parts of this game before this update could have known as Inventory Management Simulator, so I'll take it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaysWithWolves Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I finally bought the game this morning. On sale for about $26 at GreenManGaming (with code). $30 at Steam. On sale for Xbox and PS too. Still think they did wrong leading up to the launch. But, I'm pretty certain other companies would've done that and charged for some of these major updates. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaysWithWolves Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Having to find save points is really annoying. I know later I'll be able to build a save point machine, but I'm not there yet. I've crashed twice on PC after doing a fair amount of exploring and gathering each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agamon Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I had a few crashes playing before Beyond, and I've had one since. I try to keep the ship nearby to save as much as possible. My biggest issue is remapping controls doesn't take on PC. And they changed the way the Steam controller works (touchpad as joystick = unplayable). 8bitdo controller maps as Switch controller with the buttons reversed (shakes fist at Nintendo). Not even going to bother trying a DS4 or XB1 controller, I've read on Era that people are having issues with those, too. I'm just using mouse and keyboard until they fix it. And that biofuel generator needs to be changed. If it took 50 trees worth of carbon to power your house for an hour IRL, we'd still all be drawing on cave walls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Loaded it up to give the VR support a try. They really need to work on it as the performance is horrid but it is really cool to stand on these worlds and actually sit in your ship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then exit it. It saves then. If you ship isn’t near you , you can call it to your current position . Just make sure it’s loaded with launcher fuel when you leave it.

moycon Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I love it when games get updates/support even years after the release of the game. I have the limited edition for the PS4 and even though there were a lot of complaints about the game when it came out, I always felt it was pretty great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrocko Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Love this game. Finished the Omega expedition and got the new ship. Pretty cool. Still waiting on the new Space Stations! Really want to see what changes they made to them. Hope that they keep doing updates for NMS. I know it's been around since 2016 but hey how many games from 2016 are still getting updates to make it even better! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 The amount of support that NMS has received is simply stunning. Things should generally be more like this, but they never are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
