With all the save problems I'm really surprised that they haven't just said that everyone needed to start over. Would've pissed way less people off.

Thanks guys. I'll skip for now and maybe try when it's on an epic sale. I didn't like that there felt there was any point of doing anything. Nothing yielded any good rewards I felt like it was all just pointless with no "carrot on a stick" . Willing to give it a second shot though! But I'll wait based on replies to my post thanks all.

Honestly that's a crater in my knowledge as I started afresh. Sorry man.

All good homie, definitely wait until it's something you feel could be worth a punt and if you have any Q's between now and then just give me a shout.

That's the second planet I landed on. That mesa is gigantic. I also could see it on the approach to the planet which was awesome.
Edit: Image won't embed for some reason.
I guess I'm not sure what your metric for good rewards is, but they got rid of many of the tech crafting blueprints and replaced it with a Diablo-style procedurally generated loot system. That seems like it'll be addictive for some people, in terms of searching for the perfect gear.
Playing on PC with DS4 controller.
I'm having an issue with my controls right now. Using RT while flying shoots my weapons as well as accelerates. I checked controller settings in Steam as well as in game, can't find anything where RT is mapped to fire. Never had this problem before this patch, played last night with no issues. Anyone else?

I've sorted it now on freighter. I had to build a base computer on a planet first. Now I've built my fleet room and tried doing an excursion but uhh it wants tonnes of fuel and idk.
Still sad about my base. Could have really packed that away.
Also there's some random in my system discovering things :c
That's awesome. I found a planet like that on my first playthrough, it's a quick way to become a millionaire.
Survival is pretty harsh, things also cost more so it's a bit more "grindy" on top of being more hostile. If that's what you're looking for, go for it. If you're looking for a relaxing exploration game with a side of danger and a lot of progression possibilities, go Normal.
ok so if my wife and I both start a new save, how do we get to playing together? One of us gets off our home planet and goes to the other one? How can I find her? is there parties or anything?
Speaking of becoming a millionaire...
Is Salvaged Technology rare? Because one of the planets in my starter system has them buried all over the place. Literally every 500 yards (or whatever measurement the game uses). I just looked in my inventory to see what they were worth and my stack of 10 has a value of 500k. Stacks can go up to 15. Can I sell these? Because that just seems... too good to be true.
I believe it did pack it away, the update notes said that everyone's base had been archived. So probably check the base computer for previous base material cache.

Just a guess but go to options > network > invite friends.
Thanks for the advice, is it significantly more grindy in Survival? I like the idea of a challenge, as Normal when I played at launch was almost too easy.
Sorry, didn't mention that I already redeemed the content and it said I need to visit something to change the exosuit. Will try to redeem it again, maybe it resets after I quit the game and reload..
My first NEXT planet is a paradise world with those Vortex Cubes in caves. There's also "metal fingers" of gold and uranium which are 100-200 units each.
Oh, and for some weird reason there's also superheated rain. Not very paradisical to me but what do I know.

I redeemed it and when I went to the appearance editor at the space station it was there under helmets!
Flying over a planet at night looks terrible on base PS4. It's like there's a YouTube video buffering the cloudy sky in at 240p.

Hi, Kyuuji,
So you're quoting me from literally just two posts. Weird that you're attempting to paint me as some kind of frantically obsessed person out to bring down the creator's of No Man's Sky.
I mean... lol... I made one small comment in this thread... and, yes, it was done in a nice way, without vitriol.
But since you brought up my posting history, which is diverse, and covers many different games, I have to bring up your posting history.
You have ten pages of posts to your name, 99% of which are all about 'No Man's Sky'.
I have a suggestion: I think you need to step away from this and get some perspective. Like I said earlier, it's great that the developer is fixing their game. That's wonderful. But they shouldn't have hyped their game the way they did. That was wrong.
I'm sorry if that bothers you, but that's a very valid criticism. In the future I think you should just allow people to voice their opinions instead of telling them to 'move on'. Rarely does being dictatorial like that ever produce a good result.
And, yeah, I think you're stirring up your own pot by trying to shape and control the discussion about a game that you're clearly very attached to.
I'm sorry, but not everyone is going to agree with you that No Man's Sky is a great game, or that its developers are without fault.
I've just had a couple of random people join my game. It's bizarre.
OP
OP
should have clarified for steam. Is this how it works there too?
Also i'm at work so I was asking for future reference, haven't been able to try it yet or look at the menu or anything. Thanks for the (possible) answer though!
Seriously, stop this crap. If you're just in here to bash on the game first, and the players who enjoy it afterwards, you're going to run into problems real fast. The game isn't for you. That's fine. You don't need to be in here then.
OP
OP
I'm not 100% sure as there might be some Steam interface method of doing it too, but this is in the options for the game so it might be there on the PC version too?

Come chill out on normal! For me survival is largely redundant as the reasons I want to play it I just play perma-death with has a more tangible feel of tension and risk/reward. For everything else it's Normal.
At this point we should probably include the method of switching between 1st and 3rd person in the OP.

Yeh there's a number of repeat questions. I'll likely fast-track the basic FAQ and have one up by Friday and aim to expand on it with how to survive your first planet on the Saturday.
So the distant fauna no longer shows up as blinking dots through the scanner. How are we supposed to locate unscanned species now? Used to be able to look underground or in the sky and head in that direction knowing you haven't scanned any birds or subterranean species for instance.
Someone who has dove deep into NEXT will have to answer this, as I'm not sure how the difficulty ramp and various systems have changed since the update. In Atlas Rises you could still survive if you knew what to do, but everything just took longer because you would have to make frequent stops to maintain life support systems, avoid sentinels, and scrounge for resources. The biggest issue I had with it before were the incessant Pirate Attacks. I was jumped like 3 times in 5 warps by pirates in my second system, which depleted all my ship resources and eventually killed me. It was hard, but more annoying hard than overcoming adversity hard.
YMMV, but hopefully Survival is a bit more balanced in this Patch.
OP
OP
I'd love to think that but I totally nabbed it from Reddit as I knew some here might have missed it :(
I started afresh so didn't get the message.
The gameplay loop seems mostly untouched which is really disappointing to me - it's still gathering the game :(
