jup, I dropped on a toxic planet with agressive sentinels xD

[@flameking8442]

I lucked out on my first base (that I lost), but all the resources I needed for a hyperdrive were on a radiation planet with aggressive sentinels. This was in 2016 so things, at least to my memory, were harder to acquire hence why I spent more time running from sentinels than building a base on the nice planet I started on. I will always miss you Planet Jar Jar :(

In my second playthrough I got dropped on an extreme weather planet with aggressive sentinels. As if only one wasnt bad enough lol

[@scubasteve2189]

He did too. The paradise planet was his second planet, not first. You don’t have access to base computer until your second planet. 😉👍🏻 And the first planet always has bad storms. It spawns them in at certain points in the tutorial. Once you use the map to find the hermetic seal, for example, the storm spawns about 30 seconds later. In fact, you can even view the map then hang out in your ship or a cave and just wait for the storm to clear. 😂

[@brandonmyers9660]

I picked it up a week ago, after following all the updates. I figured, even if I don't like it, I'll gladly support the developers because they're the kind of people we need making games. We need people that care, that pour their hearts and should into their game. Massive respect to Hello Games. Oh, and I love the game! I've been hooked all week.

[@eimanyusry]

as a vet, the systems have systems to a level i feel like most people can appreciate. i could learn learn an alien's language which helps me build rapport w their species which leads me to better discounts when negotiating transactions with their species across other systems/ones i meet at the space station/ones i have in base working for me. and this is barely the surface of just one of the deep systems. and you can totally ignore all this and opt for a different life and not touch any of it. be a space pirate. be a farmer. don't wanna explore? build your base on your freighter. farm on your base. sell off a trade terminal in your base. send your frigates to gather resources. purchase and sell ships. build ships from parts you find. upgrade your suit. upgrade your ship. upgrade your freighter. upgrade your fleet. upgrade your gun. find alien guns. participate in expeditions. collect free exclusive not-a-gun! free exclusive not-a-ship. and not a single microtransaction. spectate as your ai mech engages combat with a local dinosaur. summon your space bike and rove around the surface, go underground, go underseas, find a flying creature, tame it, collect it and summon it whenever you explore a new planet.

[@rogerp.2442]

I would say you’ve seen about 10% of the cool stuff in this game, it makes me wish I could start over completely fresh. Don’t be scared to keep exploring, you have teleporters so you don’t need to stay in any one solar system. Small spoiler-free tip, the mud hut from the quicksilver vendor is OP as a quick base and resizable!

[@aliservan7188]

I've got 1400 hours on my main save, and even I didn't know that!

[@jonservo]

No Man’s Sky has lots to do, and it can seem overwhelming at times. I think it’s only fault is it has so many paths to explore, like trade, running a colony, combat and piracy etc but they could do more to flesh the individual aspects of each path more i.e. it could use more complexity so the gameplay stays fresh and fun. I have a lot of time in the game and some parts feel stale after a while, though with the huge overhaul to the game recently it could have done a lot to help. The first couple hours are the hardest to get through though, once you get past the tutorial the universe opens up. You were incredibly lucky to start on a paradise planet. I always get a hazard planet and spend the first hours burning, freezing or being irradiated lol

I love everything about NMS, not only the game which is awesome, but the company Hello Games and his director Sean Murray, and all the redemption ark that they've been through. I've being all in on NMS since it's first show off in E3 back in 2014, and it's amazing what they did over the years. They release at least 3-5 major updates per year for free, no microtransactions, no paid cosmetics, no paid VR, nothing! Just the amount I paid for the game 7 years ago in the pre-sale. Not to mention, I see new things that surprise me at least every week. Last time I went to a dissonant planet with gravitational storms and I saw chunks of rocks flying up and being deintegrated in the sky and also some big beautiful energy balls with collision flying up to sky. This game is wonderful

[@KenLinx]

Starting on an earth-like paradise planet is pretty neat

[@BoydsofParadise]

Vet player with 800 plus hours in. This game has a meditative quality for me. Each base carries a specific memory of the time I built it, and the names are inspired by real-world events. "Mask Free Zone" comes to mind. I also play in VR from time to time. The sense of scale in a VR environment has to be experienced! Enjoy!

[@gerasmus]

[@Legion12Centurion]

As others have said thats a great start. My start was a constantly freezing toxic fume world that had gaps in the terrain so you could hardly navigate. I play in the difficult setting so I had to find caves every minute. I was struggling with gathering resources while snowblind and freezing to death. I also had to avoding some quick deadly predators and dangerous fauna. It was a true nightmare. I get to my ship and have to fix it. That in itself was the plot to a new movie about survival. Fell down a mine shaft thingy essentially a cave system. Battling everything from poison clouds to hostile animals while trying to resurface. The start can be great or truly challenging in this game. I think both has merit though its also a kinda cool experience making your ship work on a literall hell world and escaping to the stars.

[@Absolynth]

Dragging myself through the mud on survival at the start of my journey years ago, to now being a Captain with a fully loaded/customized capital starship was simply the most epic character arc I've ever experienced in gaming lol

[@renyarhoj4154]

Non-spoiler veteran tip: When you anger the sentinels and you're trying to get away use your terrain manipulator to burrow underground, make a zigzag cave where you cannot see the sky, and then just wait the drones will look around and then give up it only takes a maximum of 10 seconds.

[@MrArrow54]

ya the enemy ai is pretty poor. Same with the alien creatures that live at the bases with all the pods/eggs. If you dig underground they loose sight of you and the aggro drops away. Even if they fall in the hole with you they kinda just ignore you and pop back to the surface.

[@goob1in606]

last time i tried this they clipped through the floor, the fact i still have the permadeath save amazes me

[@delroy8278]

I've been playing since launch and still love playing this game. It is very much an exploration game with mild survival and combat involved. If you're looking for intense survival and combat look elsewhere. The game has been out for almost eight years and most of the systems you go to will never have been seen by another player. I highly recommend new players start with normal mode and do the tutorial missions until you're familiar with the controls and how things work. But even on the hardest settings, extreme permadeath mode, it isn't all that difficult if you know what you're doing. Just have to be REALLY careful you don't die.

[@infinitechibi1496]

I got dropped onto a scorching hot planet on my first playthrough, it had literal fire storms that would happen nearly all the time. Bit of a rough initial drop won't lie.

[@AndrewBroadhead-k1k]

this is the best drop u can get, the fire storms give you a boost to your jetpacks and u can farm storm crystals right off the bat. which is the best way to get started, once u get ur hyper drive fixed just build a bunch of jump fuel with the crystals and sell the rest, and u can get straight to jumping from system to system just getting the inventory and tech slots.

[@infinitechibi1496]

​@@AndrewBroadhead-k1k huh, interesting, I never did find any storm crystals whilst I was on that planet tho.

[@AndrewBroadhead-k1k]

@@infinitechibi1496 oh yeah probs wasnt extreme storm. they the ones you want. always farm those crystals on the scorching hot planets, its always the best, because when the storm comes u can basically go from one batch to another with just one boost of ur jet pack

[@alejandrosantana6756]

Sharing you have roughly 30hrs in the game and have only left your solar system only a couple of times is actually crazy to me. I’m not even going to say you haven’t scratched the surface. You haven’t even LOOKED at the surface, and I say all this in the best way possible. There is soooooooooo much more to see and discover. I’m 60hrs in (I left the game on 2018 and recently came back) and I lost it with how much stuff I walked into. Gotta applaud you for rocking that starting ship and multitool too. Again, there’s so much left to see. I hope you continue to invest more time in this and build your character more.

[@LethalOwl]

When you're on the galaxy map, what you see is just one galaxy, with lots of star systems, each with 2-6 planets/moons to visit. And there's billions of star systems. And there's a few hundred galaxies with billions of star systems :D

If normal mode is becoming too easy for you, then you can go into Options and ratchet up the combat difficulty and/or other settings without having to start a new save.

It's been a while since I've played the game but always see that it keeps getting updates. Need to revisit it myself.

[@revelation_jeff2951]

Glad you enjoyed it! Survival mode or permadeath is the best way to experience the game. Normal mode has little to no consequences and therefore little meaning to upgrades and progression in my opinion. Survival made it come to life much more.

Ohhhh mannn. By this point, it was totally worth the wait. If you jump in right now, even earlier to be frank, it was what was promised and beyond. So glad to see new people giving it a go!! :)

I ended up doing a custom difficulty world which is nice cause you can change settings anytime on the fly (I made building free as ive been playing the game for years but never built a proper base due to the resource cost, I dont regret it one bit) but not sure if you can change things in standard mode but custom really just gives you that customizability to eliminate all the boring parts of the game or anything you dont like

[@pltatman1]

I love custom difficulty! I just max out the difficulty of every slider and select permadeath. It makes the experience more...palpable.

[@usm05065]

I got NMS around 2018. I started playing it a little the next year, fell off, tried again in 22 and then it just all clicked for me about a year ago. I've been loving it ever since and each update has been better than the last

[@FrethKindheart]

When on the ground, to escape sentinels terraform a tunnel into the ground and turn right or left a short distance. They can't find you and aggro will drop. In space you can escape sentinel ships by flying away. You will eventually lose them and have the ability to kick in more speed.

[@DocSardo]

However, sometimes they bug out like they did in this video and it can be tough to shake them. In this case you can dig down and if they don't de-spawn just log out and back in. If they are not bugged you can just out-run them and they will lose you. Getting in your ship will re-set the waves to flying instead of ground troops, so not the best idea unless you want to take on their mothership.

[@blackgateboxingxuanmenquan6407]

For about 3 hrs I was in an intense survival game and had no idea how I’d ever get to the stars as I huddled down in caves and rode out storms in a base every 10 mins. Then things started looking up and the piano music kicked in and I got the F out of dodge and finally got to a space station. Cathartic. That first base is now my favorite base because it was such an intense survival start, and it’s a wooden shack.

[@jonathangebert3006]

Starting with a paradise planet even in your starting system is pretty rare. Some predators will attack you, depends are their aggressiveness. The settlements will eventually make you money as you upgrade it. My only tip for those is once you finish the quest line attached to it, don’t let the settlers go on expeditions. I let the expeditions happen and ended up losing half my population.

I have a platform on surface for power and ocean swells come over it, it freaked me out at first, super cool though. I have a trench like area I’m building in. The new water mechanics and look inspired this new base. It’s an absolutely amazing game that I’m several hundred hours in, if not over 1k, and still learning stuff all the time it seems. lol Mud huts can be a base and can be made bigger 🤯 and the figurines for cockpits and ship trails can increase maneuverability. Like what?!? 😂

[@Arjay404]

2 Points on things you said during the settlement part, The Radiation protection module you found does NOT give 100% protection to radiation, that 100% is just it's "battery" power that's used up to protect you from radiation and the planet you are on while it is radioactive (Earth is too, all planets are.), it's not radioactive enough to trigger your radiation module to protect you, it's not being used at the moment on that planet. Secondly the fine amount that you gave to your citizen does NOT go to you, in fact it's negative. Your citizen (your settlement) needs to pay that fine (presumably to the other citizens off shore bank account because that money just disappears from the settlement.), Notice how it says settlement debt XYZ amount.

First off, getting a paradise planet is rare, like and especially one has lots or fauna, flora and materials. Finding one with water is also kinda rare. At least ones thats aren't fully submerged.

You can always get a new one from getting a plantery settlement chart at a space station but you'll have to build it up again, losing all your resources and money put into the first one

[@chrisp9824]

NMS has an amazing amount of well designed and interesting mechanics. Only issue is, that almost all of those mechanics can become boring unless you find something special in them. For ex. I was building code locks using switches and converters in basebuilding, then modify the locks and I made a puzzle base. I saw a dude who had super complex lock, that was translating inputs into 6 character binary code and then compared that to the key kode... I mean come on. Some people become just addicted to ship hunting ( there are many changes to ships but devs keep in mind to make that aspect engaging) others may enjoy breeding, something that is also long run. I found a couple of mechanics that literally sucked me in, very much enjoyed all the rest and overall this game is my all time top 5.

There is a way do temporary deactivate the sentinels, but you have to survive to wave 5 (look in your interaface top right corner) and survive everything they're throwing at you. This applies to the sentinels in space aswell. Also there is a special POI on planets that you can use to temporary disable them.

[@Katharating]

[@Luizanimado]

I'm playing for the first time right now, I definitely agree that this game is very relaxing, there is something about going to a planet and walk around getting materials and discovering stuff that is very chilling. At the same time, I do think the game can be quite disappointing at some moments, when you find an interesting planet it's pretty cool, but most planets are not very interesting, I feel like they should had have a dungeon on ruins generation as well, or something like that so the planets can feel more fun to explore. Anyway, it's an interesting game, but I wouldn't recommend to pay full price for it, buy it when you find a good sale, because the game doesn't worth a lot.

[@duckman12498]

the planets are beautiful but there’s like three gripes I have with this game, 1. most aliens look like a different version of the same cow-dog thing, they really gotta add more variations. 2. This one is more just a me thing but I wish the planets orbited around the sun and you actually had to figure out some rudimentary orbital mechanics, and thirdly, there needs to be more factions, like WAY more, it’s a whole galaxy, why only 3-4 intelligent alien species? Why are they all space faring? The game needs to diversify a bit more and have some strange tribal crabs on a desert planet or something, it would bring so much to the game. We’ll get there hopefully. I hope cities one day get added too, and I hope they’re also diverse and not just the same architecture throughout the entire galaxy like the generated settlements today.

Gave this game a try for the first time since launch last week. It’s obviously a very different game than it was at launch and has made so many improvements. The graphics are beautiful, the planets are better, and the systems are much more mature. With that said, I had a hard time sticking with it because I didn’t feel like I was working towards anything. The way I’d put it is that the journey was fun, but I didn’t have a destination. So after roughly 30 hours of playing it, I stopped. I hope to see some kind of end-game content eventually

star systems* Our star, Sol, is the only one that can be called a solar system 🤓

[@samdelfavero]

The first one, Euclid, is the most explored out of all of them, and as of right now just over 1% of Euclid has been discovered. Insane.

[@clocked0]

​​@@samdelfaveroSeriously? Wow. No wonder I've only rarely ended up in previously explored star systems in 40 hours. I guess that opens up a lot of possibilities for them to add new types of planets/star systems in the future though. Maybe in Worlds Part 2 we'll get that.

I have been grinding a good ship recently and man it is so good 200K lightyear jump range and i got it by going to a dissonant planet shooting up sentinel refineries getting this brain thingie it points me to a crashed sentinel ship i have to fix it and merge my brain with it so it does not "consume" me and then i could fly it

Check the vendor under the stairs. I find it as one of the most fun game loops.

[@toddparker514]

I love seeing people play this for the first time or again .

[@DavidWinstead]

Great video man., new sub earned! I've been playing NMS ever since it came out and stuck with it for hundreds of hours and years. As soon as they added base building, I started creating a base every single day, that to me, was soooo relaxing! I took a break for about a year and came back with the latest update mainly to see the new water rendering system and got hooked all over again.

[@mdwwarren4851]

bro literally got a terran planet off the rip... (500 hours in the gam and just found one) :|

[@andrewfinlayson4416]

I've followed you on grounded and I enjoyed all your content on that and being a veteran to this game I'm excited to see more stuff from you 😊

[@MrMucera]

Started over again with 5.0. Going to add a few hundred hours more to my existent ones. Perfect game to chill out to with a podcast or some music in the background. And so much to do depending on where you want to take it.

[@acrosyy420]

A fuckin paradise planet on start??? Dude what are the odds

[@in-craig-ible6160]

I'm glad to see you enjoyed the overall experience.

[@cwbuckley4508]

This is really a good game. In fact in my opinion it is one of the best games out there. You are doing a great job and you are very lucky that you spawned on a Paradise planet.

I started to play NMS for the first time two weeks ago and really liked it a lot. Play it in PCVR with Quest 3 and the immersion is top notch 😁👌

[@Healer0079a]

And the crazy part. It just keeps getting more added to it. Changes. Fixes to a lot of things. More things to do. The updates are probably not slated to end soon I'd wager.

[@grahamxiii]

Welcome new player hope you enjoyed in this game.. And Welcome again

[@LobstersGaming]

Bro that’s crazy how good of a planet you got

[@leonoliveira8652]

Wrong terminologies/naming here and there, but man I do love the enthusiasm. Do try VR if you have the chance, it's wild!

[@thenamezdan]

Who cares

[@leonoliveira8652]

@@thenamezdan Exactly, the enthusiasm is where it's at =w=

[@isty4491]

I notice you dont have a Freighter yet Every 5 times you Warp to a new system there is a bttle, im sure youve seen, even fought in the battle When the battle is over you get a comm message to dock with one f the freighters, speak to the captain and he will offer you the freighter (1st one is free, after that youll need to buy them if you choose to upgrade it later) This freighter can hold your ships (you cn own 12 ships at a time before having to get rid of one), you can also reconfigure, or build the interior of the freighter into a base Now you have a flying base that can warp to more systems, hold your ships, and be called in to your system when needed etc Im trying to stay a bit vague so you can still find out things for yourself, an also because you dont want me to write you an essay Theres a few other things too, but as i say, i will let you find and figure it out There is hundreds of videos that can teach you things if you should wish to be told, rather than figure it out Happy trails and welcome to No Man's Sky!

[@tomnook1929]

i did the same. had 6 hours until last night. actually got into it and had some fun.

[@thetiredbiker3652]

Welcome to the verse. The sky is fine, feel free to go deeper. 🤘

[@ddubzz_]

I’ve been playing this for years, 1000+ hours , not only will you keep finding things to do you never even realised was there, the updates keep coming thick and fast. Also, you can find star systems that are community hubs where there are hundreds of bases, if that interests you!

[@DCatGameDeveloper]

I found a tropical planet but there's a heat storm every 10 minutes, time to find another one lol

[@WingManFang1]

Keep at it, do the expeditions when you have time….now is great 👍….and you’ll find your place in the stars with the rest of us. Before you know it, all the overwhelming enemies and obstacles you face will be child’s play…. (Pun intended) I have sunk a bit over 2000+ hours in game about 2/3rds of which was and still is exclusively in VR. This game….it changes how we see the industry and it’s the comeback kid of gaming. You’ll never be alone. Welcome to the community.

[@frankfortfcgoc]

Tried it first on ps4 from my pre order have access on gamepass but might get it on steam so i can play on the deck its always in my mind to give it another try looks incredible nowadays

[@PuppetDungeon]

Lol... don't think I ever got a paradise planet. Welcome to the game... there's just so much cool stuff to uncover.

[@PapaZlRO]

Played the game for years. You got very lucky with that planet.

[@Kankuro1138]

Your starter base looks pretty close to what mine was like as well. Since then I made a Cliffside base on top of a mountain and an undersea base. This became a great game an overall enjoyable sbd creative sci fi experience. It doesn't rush you into anything you go at your own pace and however you like to play. I was really impressed starting the game again in 2024.

[@macisr]

No Man's Sky has evolved so much, and it has so much to do, that what i like to do the most, because i like shooters, is to just hunt sentinels, corrupted sentinels, pirates and now vile broods. Cranking the combat difficulty to the max really makes you sweat and it's fun as hell. 3 years ago I always stopped playing because I didn't find the combat engaging. Now it is fun. And in the middle of that I do the quests which have pretty interesting writing, learn alien languages. Do some missions, explore the planets a little bit, explore freighters. I think that the game now has pretty good gameplay loops, not perfect, but it truly has progressed and it's now one of the best exploration games ever.
