Last tip : Have fun and enjoy the game at your own pace. I play this game after a 12 hour work day , and it’s amazing. Finally came back after waiting 8 years.

[@aeriagloris4211]

Same, coming back. Try permadeath :3

[@jmike2039]

I just recently came back and I'm having a blast, though playing in VR was truly breathtaking

[@whatsozempic]

I'm also 3 hours in again after leaving it 8 years ago

[@thegr8black771]

Just started today was supposed to start 8 yrs ago lol its a dope game so far

[@luisvidal5290]

Im also came back the game is different now and relaxing never boring , you always have something to do , and I don’t touch the main history yet

[@Murkelsable]

Another tip for nanites is to scan all fauna on a planet. You'll get a good chunk of nanites from the discoveries menu (up to 3000 for a planet with a large amount of fauna). Combine that with the scanner upgrade, you're gonna be rolling in dough and nanites pretty quick.

[@carlgarland4175]

@Murkelsable units. You get units for scanning not nanities. "Units Received"

[@hesoyam881]

@@carlgarland4175 you get the nanites from uploading the data

[@briwanderz]

@@carlgarland4175 no.. you get units when you scan A single new creature type.. if you get ALL of the creatures on a planet you get nanites.. you have to go to discoveries and check the list for the planet, at the top it either says "you have xx of xx Fauna scanned" or it says you got them all, click here to collect x,xxx nanites.. the more different species on the planet the more you get.

[@dtwnfunkystuff]

@@carlgarland4175 They are talking about the discoveries menu. You scan everything on the planet and receive units with your scans, then go to the discovery menu and upload your discoveries for nanites

[@WillFleetney]

​@@carlgarland4175 If you get all the fauna on a planet scanned you can go into Discoveries for the planet, click on Fauna then get a Nanite boost for completion of the set. Units for each animal, nanites are a bonus for completion

[@danielp.9948]

If you place the upgrades (for anything - starship, multi-tool, suit) together - they get a minor improvement. You'll see this, when they become outline with a color. So that's actually the reason the scanner modules are outline yellow in tip 11 "supercharged slots"

[@jmike2039]

Funny how you haven't played long but provided me the most useful tips that got me excited to get home and try

[@DynamicEncryptedCommunicat-k1e]

Ok, watch this on my TV and a lot of very good advice, but I think you missed one really big one. Each time you visit a new system, goto Space Station (SS), then goto the mission counter, do not do the missions yet, collect ALL MISSIONS for : culling criters, sentenals and feeding critters. The game allows you to STACK those missions and stack away. As you get more shields, weapons ect then find: 1. A planet with hostile sentinels and plant a base computer, 2 find a planet with hurds of critters, big groups, plant a base there. Great if you can find in the same system. Keep stacking all those until you are confy and go on a culling spree. You will level up so fast!!!!! Thought that was an important one for newbees to know

[@coolbeaniedude]

got 40+ hours and boy am i excited to upload all my discoveries the next time i play. Thanks for the tips!

[@MrPlasmaniac]

2 notes here: 1.The product range of the upgrade vendors is not "random" btw. They will offer the same upgrades in the current system. If a vendor has for example an S-class hyperdrive upgrade, it will always be S-class in that system 2. If you follow the tutorial/quests, you'll unlock a lot of stuff basically for free. That'll save you a lot of nanites or other resources...

[@dancingkirby3591]

Awesome video. I really liked that this was a video with actual, helpful tips. Most videos just show how to take advantage of game mechanics. I enjoyed your video and look forward to seeing more.

[@ConCon]

Awesome, thank you!

[@stepheng618]

Good tip for nanites. Setup a base next to runaway mould spawns. Teleport in and check it often. The mould will respawn every so often and can be refined into nanites.

[@ConCon]

They spawn? As a resource to mine?

[@stepheng618]

@@ConCon yes unusual deposits. They are literally giant balls of mould that roll away when shot with the mining laser. You can get loads of mould destroying them. They are yellow icons so quite rare like the nav data and other icons, set up shop near one with a refinery and a teleporter. 😉

[@stevet7695]

@@stepheng618 I think they scan as Curious Deposits with a two star yellow icon. Can often generate around 5000+ Runaway Mould per site (that's 1 Nanite per 5 Mould).

[@Dwarfi01]

Tp away and tp back and it's respawned

[@powerpc6037]

For the Atlas Pass, get the recipe for the V3 Atlas Pass and craft one of those. The V3 pass includes the V1 and V2 passes as well and you only need 1 in your inventory.

[@Cheapshot420420]

whenever u find one of those broken machinery, there is 99% of the time a salvaged data within 20u.

[@selkirk57]

Thank you so very much. I am also new with only 80 hours and it never once ding-donged in my obliviously empty skull that I could add more exosuit tech slots as well as the cargo slots at the same place! Never even came close to crossing my mind. Like I said, big empty galaxy between the ears, lol. Thanks!

[@Crowned_Hearts]

Here's the best tip. Start a new save with expeditions IF you have already completed the tutorial of the game or know how to play, starting a new save with an Expedition skips the tutorial and gives you a set of objectives. The current expedition (expedition 14) requires you to jump across systems and elliminate an invasive species among other things. Its basicly a set of missions that are really easy to complete and gives you a lot of rewards that skyrocket your progress. If you want to skip the earlygame almost entirely, expeditions are your best friends, they are not always available they are time limited events that are up for a month or two but new ones release regularly. the missions arent hard at all either, like for example from the current expedition there is, walk 1400 units in storms, kill 50 sentinels (Sentinels are total pushovers even in the early game), hit 4 targets with one bomb, kill 50 hostiles inside the gorilla exosuit (wich the current expedition gives for free with upgrades as a reward of another mission.) etc. etc.

[@sergiofabianvieyra6363]

Tip for the inventory: Navigation Data and the cartographer in the space station are the best option for new players, you trade Navigation Data for specific maps and detect crashed upgrades for expanding the inventory, you need to fix them , in 3 hours i had unlocked all slots in the exosuit

[@briwanderz]

if you start a normal (or custom.. just NOT expedition) game the story gives you a LOT of blueprints for FREE, no spending nanites or even data to unlock stuff.. some have said you get just about everything, but i haven't got that far, because i started the expedition before i finished the story / mission line, which i somewhat regret and now started over, and will wait till the last community step is almost done and do it again with my new character. important tip, if someone offers you a free freighter, just say no... to the first one. you get better offers after.. (unless there is some weird glitch and the first one offered is an S class freighter)

[@jonathangebert3006]

@@briwanderz yes, you can unlock a fair bit by doing some of the side quests. You can easily save yourself over a hundred salvaged data and a couple thousand nanites this way.

[@drugsarebad97]

Here’s my tip from me a player who’s been here since game launch: Dont worry about the base the game makes you build for the tutorial. Just get 4 walls and the other few items to complete the quest. Then go find a GOOD planet to build a real base at . You can even delete the quest base right after u build it

[@MrPlasmaniac]

No Man's Sky - where 60 hrs is "new to the game"

[@kwams26]

A couple tips: you can buy suspicious modules from outlaw/pirate stations. And if you want to smuggle and avoid being caught, buy from outlaw stations, warp to a base or your settlement (hopefully in a wealthy system) and then warp to the space station.

[@jonathandiaz-ld1gv]

Very helpful list of tips! Thank you very much. Just started playing the game yesterday🎉

[@zoenayru]

Another Tip : Save those slime that you find early on for late game. Can be refined for nanites or fuel for Sentinel ships via pugneum.

[@stevet7695]

They refine in this order: Residual Goop > Viscous Fluid > Living Slime > Runaway Mould (all at 1:1). Then refine Runaway Mould to Nanites at 5:1. You can get a lot of this stuff from Damaged Machinery or the consoles from Abandoned Buildings.

[@user-kr5vm8nk1d]

Solidly useful guide, thanks! Really well explained - I’m only a few hours in so this was really helpful.

[@CraigJohn-kt6xe]

Platinum and pungeum can be refined into nanites. You can also get nanites by trading upgrade modules that you don’t need at space stations. Kill sentinels, pick up the canisters that they drop. Sentinel glass shards often contain upgrade modules when broken down.

[@CraigJohn-kt6xe]

Also, stack relevant upgrade modules next to esch other, for increased efficiency. For example if you have a bolt caster, stack the upgrades so that they touch, whether vertically or horizontally. The borders around each upgrade module will then be highlighted. That’s how you know you connected them successfully. Do this with your equipment.

[@alek2341]

What a helpful video. Wow, how many resources did I waste? Purple items? Who would have thought recycling slime can get you nanites? My god, I love this game but being new to it there is so much to learn but that is part of the fun. Still, I missed out on a lot, oh well. LOL

[@Em7rR]

Nice video it helped me a lot! I started 2 weeks ago and i was always thinking that i was missing something and i figured out the issues thankyou!

[@DeadpoolGold]

For the Exosuit upgrade, I like to go to the cartographer in the space station and by like 20 drop pods coordinates. It is relatively cheap and quite fast as you can just warp there. That way, I can farm all of them and visit new planets without spending lots of units or warping (which some times is very repetitive). I also find it faster that way since you can find several in the same planet.

[@michael_k_aus_S]

Wow! That's a really good guide. Full of helpful content and presented in a very easy to follow way. Thanks a lot. This will really help me out! Many greetings from Germany! *like*

[@ConCon]

You're very welcome!

[@chrisboaldin3683]

Super helpful I started a second game due to getting a little lost in what to do

[@LusterLaeman]

Holy shit. Hooooly shit. This was so very helpful. Each one of these things are news to me save for the npc language skill. One minor correction on that front - the "Visited" designation only means the npc has been spoken to, so I've run into dumb noob moments where I forgot to learn the language and nearly overlooked npcs because I'd previously spoken to them and given them a gift or just left the conversation without interacting. Anywho tysm this video seems almost tailor made for my level of experience with the game, so target audience reached!

[@Natheya]

200 hours in and I still learned stuff. Thanks man 😂

[@geoserenity]

Tip from a console player, use keyboard and mouse on foot and gamepad for exocraft and ship. Gamepad has everything at your fingertips, and kB&m on foot gives you much finer control for combat, scanning and stuff like that

[@philippeplouffe5332]

Awesome video. Really useful

[@willbailey6393]

Best tip is to make your only object at the start to get the advanced mining laser

[@Lastofus_Gaming]

So if you have trouble getting money early on or you just don't want to spend all of it up on wiring looms, do the Nexus mission in the anomaly, that rewards you with 15 looms.

[@DrYoloNuggets]

Thanks man I’m a noob at this game for some reason

[@vvoitel]

[@Scr3amapillar]

Best tipp: play the main mission. 2nd best: play the main mission. Last tipp: Just play the game and don't run for "best weapon/ship/freighter" or "get rich glitch" videos. Play it. Enjoy it. Don't be a y2k-gamer.

[@DislocatedBungieJump]

I’ve only been playing in Creative mode for a long time and can’t complete an expedition worth a damn.

[@RealAzurech]

Hi thanks for the video i started NMS for the first time a week ago how do i get the supercharger slots for my weapon?

[@Puchuchi747]

Tip Number 47: don't hold down the Starship weapons, you can tap the shoot button and they will never get heated, and you will not run the risk of cool down. 😂

[@pepciu6038]

I kept not using the scanner module telling myself that 11,461% wasn't worth the space. Imagine the look on my face when he read it out loud that it was 11 THOUSAND and I realized that 11,461 was the American notation and it wasn't the same as 11.461.....

[@lordfreeziak3387]

Hello, need some help. I found a ship crashed I claimed it. But i didnt have the mats to repair it. So now, He still is crashed, And... i might have forgotten to place something to find it when i come back.. Any tips ? To find a ship i own, but which cant fly so i cant teleport/call it.. I'm on the same planet. Do i really just have to randomly fly around to find it ? I know it was for a quest, but now the quest is done, so there is nothing to show where it was. Thanks a lot

Technology slots in your exosuit are at the top. Bottom are storage inventory slots. Both of them can be increased by purchasing "exosuit expansion modules" from any space station or vendor. or u can get them with multiple ways which I'll let u figure that out urself. :)
