This Update just hits a different spot for me. Unsure why, but I took this screenshot to visualize what I'm feeling. "Unprepared for what comes next." submitted by /u/Rijido |

Hi, I’ve seen a lot of players still don’t know basics from new update or don’t know some things from it. So I decided to create a detailed guide. It’s written step by step but I assume some really “basic basics” are known to a reader so I skip those. Still I hope this will help to some players in their gaming. I also included Q&A at the end but feel free to ask, I will answer if I know the answer 🙂 That Q&A section is made from questions from this Reddit. Basic informationsThose are Corrupted Sentinels. They are your key to your hunting, whether you want jetpack, multitool or Sentinel ship. You can only find them on special planets labeled with “Corrupted Sentinels”. They won’t attack you on their own (as normal non-aggressive Sentinels) and you can actually make nice photos with them like that. When you hit them, the hunt will start and you will have to fight 5 waves of them. They have ability to go invisible and they have pretty strong ranged attacks. To find planets with Corrupted Sentinels you have to either search for them manually or you can use Dreadnought AI Fragment, which will label for you a planet with Corrupted Sentinels and ship (more to that in ship hunting section). How to find Sentinel multitools and jetpackTo find Sentinel multitool/jetpack, you have to find Harmonic camp. To find it, you have to actually fight Corrupted Sentinels. They have a chance to drop Echo Locator: Echo Locator is used to locate Harmonic camp on the planet. You actually have to be in the system with planet with Corrupted Sentinels on it or you won’t be able to use this item ! After obtaining Echo Locator, you can use it to get direct position of Harmonic camp, it looks like this: The things you care about are mainly the middle big building and tent on the left from it. Tent has free multitool for you but it’s locked and you first have to solve the puzzle. To solve the puzzle, you have to enter the terminal in the main building. You can see it’s locked. To unlock terminal and your multitool, you have to solve the puzzle. First you have to “Scan memory registers” to get a hint. Once you get a hint, it’s pretty easy to even guess what to do next. You have 3 pieces of simple math in front of you. You have to calculate the result of each one. So there it is: 9, 9 and 4. You have to remember those 3 results (doesn’t matter in which order). Then you can go back via “Access main interface” and click on “Input override glyphs”. Now you just have to enter glyphs with numbers same as your results. In this case I had to enter glyphs with numbers 9, 9 and 4. And that’s it, you can take your free jetpack from terminal and free multitool from nearby tent. How to find crashed Sentinel ships and claim themThere are 2 main ways how to find them. First one might be a lot easier for people just already looking for multitools. Since you already found the Harmonic camp on the planet, you can in the same terminal you unlocked, ask for coordinates for the crashed ship on the planet. Terminal will give you exact location and mark on the radar, where the ship is. All you have to do is to fly there. The second way is much better for hunters who want to hunt many ships and not only 1. When you start attacking Corrupted Sentinels on the ground, you can then jump into your ship and those Sentinels will call their ships to fight you. All you have to do is to beat their 4 waves and then the best part comes, 5th wave is fight you vs few Sentinel ships + Sentinel Freighteir – and that’s what you care about. When you’ll manage to destroy Sentinel Freighter, you will always get Dreadnought AI Fragment. Dreadnought AI Fragment is very handy item. It can mark crashed Sentinel ship on the planet BUT also when you aren’t in the system with Corrupted Sentinels planet, it will mark you the closest system with such a planet to you. This is great item for hunters to actually not waste time with first way of finding ships. After using Dreadnought AI Fragment it will give you the aprox. location of the crashed ship on the planet. That “aprox. location” is really small circle around that label and you will be able to notice the ship on your arrival most of the time. If not, you can just land on that spot and with your Visor you can just follow the path (100 – 700 units most of the time, really small range as I said). If you’ll use Dreadnought AI Fragment in a system without corrupted sentinels, you will get your closest system with such planet marked on your Galaxy Map. You can see a purple-white icon near that system and you’ll get followable quest so the map actually tries to take you there. ——————– How to claim crashed Sentinel shipTo claim crashed Sentinel ship you can just follow up the quest you will get when you click on the ship. However, if you want more detailed info, here it is: After you found your ship, click on it and you’ll see what you actually need to repair it. It’s always the same, so farming some resources more times might get handy in future 🙂 You want to grab everything from the ship and specially the “Hyaline Brain” which is essential for your repair. You need Hyaline Brain to obtain Harmonic Brain and actually get control over your new ship. All you have to do is to click on Hyaline Brain in your inventory and it will give you the location of small base-like relic. It looks like this. Then you need to go up and start talking with relic. After short dialogue you will get your Harmonic brain. You also need 2 more materials to claim your ship. One is Radiant Shard which is pretty easy to obtain. You just have to find big purple crystal like this and mine it (you need Advanced Mining Laser to mine it !). After you have even your Radiant Shard, you need the most tricky part and it’s Inverted Mirror. This item is obtainable just by destroying big black-purple Corrupted Sentinel machine. It looks like this, basically big purple mining-like thing. You need to shoot it and destroy it (which will of course provoke all Corrupted Sentinels so you will have to fight again). After destroying it, you will automatically get Inverted Mirror into your inventory. And that’s all, you can go back to your crashed ship, repair it and you are proud owner of your own Sentinel ship 🙂 Q&ACan I search for those items as novice? How many ships can spawn on one planet? Are those ships the same spawn type? How rare is S class ship? I have occupied slots in my multitool, what to do? Every found multitool has such occupied slots and all you have to do is to repair them. You can get materials for repairing either from fights with Corrupted Sentinels or from Radiant Shards and Inverted Mirrors. submitted by /u/Updated_Cake |

The 1.3 update turned amazing lush planet’s on the left. Into barren lifeless planet’s on the right. And we had to live with this for over a year until the NEXT update fixed them again. So don’t get too uptight over something that’s not really an issue like 3 upgrade modules instead of 6. There’s been far greater changes to the game over the years. submitted by /u/Scottishbanter |

Let’s have a little more tact.
HG definitely reads this sub. We know that. NMS came out 6.5 years ago. We paid $60 brand new. I bet a lot of people got it on sale, but let’s just say we paid full price. How many other games, ever, release major content updates for free, no subscriptions, no egregious micro-transactions, and as regularly (despite never committing to a schedule (also note how they’re never late to this non schedule))? Pretty much 0. None that I can think of.
Quick analogy of how I view our current situation:
Let’s say I give a customer a quote on building them a house. It’ll be $600,000 and have all these cool features. When I finish building it’s very obvious it went poorly. There was even a flood halfway through and the foundation had to be re poured. The customer is unhappy, but in good faith I show up a few months later and say “I’m going to redo some rooms and add a couple of things. No charge.”
A few months later I come back again, “New appliances, new windows and a garage! No charge”
And again…. and again…
A few years go by, and now I’ve far exceed the time and effort originally billed. The $600,000 budget for the home build has been more than spent. Yes, a lot of that was scrapped, but even the finished product is now worth more than $600,000.
A few months later, though, “I created a virtual reality experience of your home so you can enjoy it however you want. No charge”.
And a few months later, I come back again “I made some additions to your neighbors house, same as here. No charge”
Fast forward to this last year…. I come back a couple times and say “Some of the stuff I added isn’t quite up to my expectations. I know you’ve gotten used to me adding new cool gadgets when I show up, but before I add more I need to add some supports to the floor, add a wheelchair ramp out front, fresh coat of paint on some of those rooms I worked in a lot as I might have dinged up the walls a little in the overhaul process. No charge”.
Now I want you to put yourself in the homeowner’s shoes and imagine yourself saying “You should have brought me that entertainment system! The 8k projector with 15.1 surround sound and haptic butt-cheek feedback to embed in all my couch cushions!”
It’s kinda crazy… Let’s be honest. We’ve paid for the product, we have more than what we paid for, there is no agreement or statement of intent other than “I’ll be back with more”. At this point we have no right to have **expectations**. (elephant in the room here is there are still some things not in today’s product that were originally promised. I think that ship has sailed, and we’ve received a lot more of something different. The game took a different path, so let’s just leave it at that)
But don’t confuse that with **desires** or **wishes**.
We could say “Next time he comes back to add to the house it would be cool if we got that new entertainment system!”
We shouldn’t say “Next time he comes back to add to the house he should bring that new entertainment system!”
TL;DR
This post may seem superfluous but I think we forget to have perspective on things. Simple phrasing can change a person’s entire mood for a day, or a week. Imagine HG coming to read this sub and all they see are “WTF, why aren’t we getting ACTUAL content?” after they’ve worked so hard? That doesn’t make them feel good or motivated to continue when they could justifiably say “This is the last update. Later doods”. What would make them feel good is us being thankful while also daydreaming about future content. Seeing your playerbase riff off your game with new ideas is very motivating for creators. 🙂
So let’s continue to share what we hope to see, but let’s do it with tact and be gracious for what we’re continuing to get for free.

So while I was really in the middle of a different mission last night, I came across an awesome planet. It had fish that flew around and created blue smoke clouds out of their butts. They were awesome. I scanned them, but did not add them to wonders or anything. Now I have time to go back, but can’t find that planet. I seem to be able to view everything I’ve encountered BUT fauna. I can only pick Wonders.
And I can’t sort systems by galaxy (which is idiotic), so I can’t just isolate THIS galaxy, which I’m more or less brand new to.
It seems that my only choice is to sort by all visited systems, and then go planet by planet by planet by planet. And when it reloads the list from hitting the down arrow to move to the next screen, I can’t tell if I’ve skipped to a new system, or it’s tree he last one I was looking thru.
Am I doing this wrong? Is there a place to view fauna like I can everything else?

Long ago, NMS only allowed players to own a single ship, making it a major decision on which ship type a traveler should go after. However, realizing this felt clunky, updates have been made over the years, ship slots increased, new tech modules, and new features added. This was a great call, but it did leave one mark: the distinctions between each ship didn’t matter anymore; Haulers don’t even have the benefit of additional cargo space, since all S-class ships can have the same total number of slots.
I was talking ship perks with someone, and it got me thinking that perhaps it would make sense to introduce new strengths to less used ship types. As I was mulling it over, I realized that some of these changes would have to be pretty potent to stand up to current-day standards — poor Shuttles, their only real signature is that their takeoff price is reduced, made obsolete by the auto-recharge modules. So I decided to spitball a few ideas trying to stay true to the ship’s purpose while taking 2024 NMS in mind, and see if the following suggestions are strong enough to make you think “oh yeah, I’d definitely want to own a [ship type].”
Shuttles:
Haulers:
Living:
Explorer:
Let me know if these are along the right lines, and whether you’d fly one of these if they had these perks.

El title.
Why bother to name stuff if you’re the only one who can ever see the name? Is there a way to let others see the name?

While I struggle with anxiety so it is difficult for me to egg myself into the multiplayer scene in the game, I just have to applaud ALL of you guys. This is the most non-toxic gaming community I think I’ve ever seen and I have been a gamer for a goood…

I re-boarded my freighter after a lengthy reconnaissance mission and wanted to send my frigates out.
So, I visit The Navigator, and he gives me the list of expeditions (not Expeditions) and it’s all low star trips, three 2** and two 1*.
Would love to see more 3‘s, as well as any 4* and 5*****, which I’ve never seen. What’s up with that?
That’s all.
Gray, over and out.
