So, me and a friend have recently returned to the game and we’ve seen a type of ship in the Space Anomoly that has no landing gear, and just hovers in place instead. I’ve tried to research it, but I haven’t found any concrete evidence of it’s existence.

Was this ship exclusive to pre-orders/expeditions? And if not, how (if still possible) can it be obtained?

I’ve seen some people post asking if the game is really as big as people say it is. To this I would say that most people probably underestimate the size of the game.

To give an idea I just recently started a new save (my 7th save not including the expeditions) and on all my playthroughs I have never encountered another random player on a planet or in space. Not a single time in the 5ish years I’ve been playing this game.

Another example, just yesterday I flew into a system that was discovered 6 years ago. Whoever discovered the system must have been traveling somewhere because they didn’t scan/discover any of the planets in the system. So 6 years passed with the planets being undiscovered despite the system being discovered until I rolled along. 6 YEARS it took for another player to finally come along and discover the rest of the system.

That is one of the main reasons why I love this game. Exploring and discovering new things is what I find the most fun in and with NMS it’s seemingly infinite.
