[@KingJamesIX]

Actually I have a crazy mistake I made that doesn't seem right at all. I started building this mega base on a paradise world and I flattened the top of a mountain and started building this mega castle and temple and was planning on building so much more but whenever I progress the build and upload it and save game and log out for the night or literally any reason I log out when i come back online the fricken mountain has basically reformed burying all my hard work in Rock and frustrating me to the point I've basically given up trying to continue the build until the issue is resolved or I find a new planet with the same conditions or better conditions that has a mountaintop that is already flat.

[@JaikoStarfire]

@@easyrain9453 Didn't work for me.

[@nicolaj990]

Here is some tips I learned early on: 1. Start base building early, not big advanced bases, but rather a return point with plenty of storage space. This will be a big timesaver since you wont have to take up inventory space, simply get most of the notable materials from planets you visit, go to the space station, teleport back to your base, store, teleport back to where you were. This saves you a lot of time because you end up having thousands of the different materials after playing just a little bit. Sure the big mansion like bases with all the right tools and tricks and farms are late game but just a storage facility early on really does a lot. 2. Indeed upgrade your multitool scanner with 3 S-class scanner upgrades. The money yield you get from scanning fauna and flora on a planet are very very useful early on as pocket money ;) 3. Scan everything, flora, fauna and minerals. Why? On the anomaly there is an npc that will reward you nanites based on new scans, its random what he requests sometimes its minerals, other times its planets. But you get a sizeable reward of nanites if you remember to talk to him once in a while. 4. Following no.3 there is also an npc on the anomaly that will do the same nanite reward but for milestones. So once you see you have achieved a couple new milestones, go talk to him on the anomaly and he will give you nanites for litterally playing the game. 5. Find 1 decent ship that has a little power and a decent storage capacity early on. Use this ship for most of your gameplay early on. Once you have broken your first 100m you can start looking for high grade ships or simply upgrade it yourself. 6. Get a freighter. The first one is free if you save the captain in an ambush! Dont make the mistake I did and take the first you see. You can simply forego getting the first freighter for free and wait for the next encounter. (I get a "save the freighter" encounter once every like 3-4 systems) Freighters are mission terminals and storage space BUT also a garage. You can have multiple starships and switch between them there. 7. Do most of the main mission if not all early on. 8. Buy ion batteries and life support capsules. Having a stack of each in your inventory will boost your survival time when exploring new planets. 9. Get droppod coordinate data, repair the pod AND GET THE TECHNOLOGY / CARGO upgrades. These are the most expensive ones to buy on space stations so save money and get them there. 10. REMEMBER TO UPLOAD YOUR DISCOVERIES. YOU GET NANITES YAY. (do remember if you want to rename something, do it before the upload as you cant rename it after uploading) 11. A lot of planets have trading posts, with landing pads. From your ship next to the change perspective button there is a "scan for trade outposts" that will allow you to see if there is one on the planet and where it is. Landing on the landing pads will save you launch fuel and the post provides shelter as well as a trade terminal. 12. Bad weather will happen, if all else fails caves will save you, you will not lose health from environmental factors in there and will rely on your suit life. 13. Storage facilities on planets can be nuked from your starship and the materials will be added to your starship inventory, fly away but not into space and sentinels wont find you, its free stuff at no expense other than a flyby. 14. Manufactoring facilities are GREAT. They have special recipes in them that cant be learnt anywhere else. These recipes are what all the cool kids are doing. You can nuke the locked door from your ship, wait for sentinels to stop caring then land and loot the place. remember to solve the puzzle correctly and when rewarded choose the "blueprint" choice. 15. Echoing no.13 if you have a wanted level from sentinels (its like gta stars) do not try to escape into space, the buggers have their own fighters and they are worse than pirates. 16. If you melee and immediately use your jetpack you get a forward speed boost. Makes travelling on foot a bit easier, especially with sprint and jetpack upgrades. (sprint into melee into jetpack for big woosh) There are plenty of others but these are the 16 I could think of right off the bat. Have fun exploring.

Imo, this game is best enjoyed just figuring out your own way to achieve what you want, I watch a lot of these videos for entertainment and just being aware of how others play, but I feel like following a specific guide on starting out kinda kills the whole wonder and discovery aspect. In the end, if you're limited on time, you can still have fun following a guide, just be missing out on a potentially memorable experience.

Got the game like 2 weeks ago and as a newer player I totally agree with you. I had no idea the anomoly existed and when I looked at the initial research station I thought Id have the game beat in a week.

So I can see how these videos puts all of the wonder into a kind of mathematical equation. LOVE the game tho.

When you do mine resources with the Terrain Manipulator, set the beam to the smallest size possible for the best yields. It makes a huge difference. When it comes to frigates for your fleet dont waste time searching for S class frigates, buy them C Class, they rank fast. You'll ideally want 6 frigates of each type and each frigate with good/balanced stats and personnel other than its main stat. AND you can land on your frigates to get rewards from them!

Vehicles seem to be overlooked by the community a lot. Once I get access to the Nexus it would be the first thing I would prioritize. It resolves environmental hazards, which makes storm crystal farming and underwater travel easy. It basically covers all the map basics and is a very easy way to discover drop pods to increase inventory. It vastly increases a player's inventory. The first thing I do when I drop on a planet is to build the generic pad so I can summon any vehicle, this doesn't require a base to be built.

[@LycanWolfGaming]

I've got that many upgrades now that Extreme planets don't faze me that much lol as well as movement modules, haven't used vehicles in quite a while tbh

[@jacobely6826]

The only point i see to vehicles is on survival or permadeath because of the resource limitations, in normal its just unnecessary, hazards are not even a slight problem if you do a little sodium farming or just buy a couple thousand from the space station making hazards negligable and even the fastest exocraft isnt much faster than you with good movement modules and the melee jetpack speed exploit. Especially. Not worth the time spent getting the resources to build it which arent alot granted but still, if you arent on a paraffinium deposit planet it means you gotta go to a different planet then go back to the planet you want to farm on... not worth it.

One of the things I wish I knew is having the Phase Beam and its upgrade. Basically turns your C class fighter into an unkillable tank. Also, don't waste nanites buying the other weapon blueprints. Instead do the main campaign until you unlock the base side-missions from Apollo. You will have to do some errands for the Overseer and Scientist and eventually you will have an armorer. This one is the easiest to progress with and unlocks a lot of blueprints. Make your own infra knife accelerator and only buy the upgrade blueprint (and of course build it). Again, even a C class fighter will be an absolute destroyer. Phase beam recharges shields, the upgrade makes the recharge even more broken (just a tap or two restores your whole shield) and the other weapon quickly dispatches unshielded enemies. Also in the latest version you can scrap multi-tools next to Tethys so it is a nice source of money next to crashed ships. Claim them, only repair them to get them to work and scrap them.

[@LeTtRrZ]

Even as a veteran with more than 600 hours, I find myself forgetting about guild rewards. In every system’s space station, there is a guild envoy. If you have a high enough rank in the respective guild, you can talk to this envoy for a reward. There is no penalty for claiming one, and the rewards can be quite good, especially for early-mid game. I still talk to them for the warp hyper cores and larval cores.

Brilliant, thanks man. I’m 60hrs in and only just worked out buying resources is way quicker than mining. The chlorine farm, and crashing the market is definitely something I’m gonna do though.

[@endeckerBM]

I learned by accident recently that if you process residual gloop and then keep processing the products then you eventually end up with nanites. All this time I was dismissing residual gloop, and passing right over it when it was offered for sale, but it is the cheapest way I've found yet of getting a lot of nanites - other than actually going somewhere and getting them from those wall devices or wrecked machinery.

[@AngryLotus]

Regarding the gathering of Storm Crystals, a tip for that.... try and get them on hot extreme planets, as during the storm (the only time you can gather them) you get a lot more bang out of your jetpack. It lasts for a super long time in the hot storms, making it way easier to travel around and gather even more. Especially if you max out your heat resistance, then the weather barely bothers you and you just get the bonus jetpack time. :)

[@HansDester]

As much as I love a good economy scam, I actually really enjoy the grind. I never enjoyed just maxing everything out as soon as possible. I'm not saying that is wrong of course! People can play however they feel like it. I'm just saying people these days just want to get everything right away and I of I did that I would stop playing the game after I did. I like the feeling of accomplishment. I'm just starting out, after owning the game since the pre-order. Life got in the way and I totally forgot about it. So maybe in 1000 hours I might go crazy. TLDR; Mining and farming and base building is not a mistake.

Just make sure you change the settings from teleport to free motion.

[@BlazerBoy1337]

I have a bonus tip for late game: you can have only 3 of a system improvement PER TAB. So that means that, for example, you can have 3 hyperdrive upgrades in the technology tab of the ship and 3 in the inventory tab of the ship and they all apply. Idk if it is a bug or not (is this intended?) but it's useful. On this same point, if you save then reload the stock of the technology vendors in space stations restocks. So if you found a S class upgrade somewhere and you need to buy 3 of them you can buy one, save, reload and then buy another.

[@sirgelvin4951]

I was sold on this game as soon as you showed mE a FREAKING STARGATE, Colonel O'Neil would be proud

[@Sanquinity]

In new playthroughs I generally go for scanner upgrades as soon as possible. Takes almost no time to scan the plants and animals in your immediate surroundings when you land on a planet, and with even one S class upgrade that can net you a few 100k per planet. With 3 upgrades you can easily get 1 to 2 mil per planet that way.

[@well-fedgaming]

Something iv learnt. The Minotaur is the best exocraft for exploring extreme planets, it can also go underwater and is immune to all weather conditions. Doesn’t need to have shields recharged like the other exocrafts and the jet pack recharges extremely fast, more so when fully upgraded.

[@Sparticulous]

And with ai upgrades, it becomes your body guard

[@publicguy1664]

A note on glyphs, when you reach a certain part in the story, you learn a glyph everytime you warp to a new system.

Another tip. Gold is your best friend. Happen to be on a planet next to a gold node? Take it. Flying through asteroid fields fire at them rocks as your passing through. You’ll be racking up tons of money in no time. Don’t stop to farm It though get it as your passing through. Mixed with other stuff you’ll be rich in no time.

Old video but I got into it again and I'll just leave 2 tips.... 1) to farm nanites go to the anomaly and take quests to kill monstruocities, grab all the eggs as each egg gives you 250 nanites when refined. 2) rush an indium drive and build an indium mining farm, doesn't matter if it's ugly you just want the indium to sell to the ship traders as they don't influence the price in systems (DONT SELL TO THE STATION !!). Congratulations now you can buy every resource and item easy and can get nanites fast

[@Stonegoal]

When expanding your slots, upgrade cargo slots first because it has double the amount of stacks.

[@julianweiser9985]

When getting to space stations, buy the tech slots since they are the cheapest. Upgrade the cargo slots with drop pods since they cost tons of money.

[@JediMastr80]

10:30 - Actually, you can cheese it a little to get power to your Mineral Extractors. First, I had a Mineral Extractor for Silver with the Electromagnetic Generator being like 400 to 500u away. I would mark the location of the Electromagnetic Generator with a marker, and placing a Signal Booster at the location (in case I accidentally lost the custom marker). I just would build basic wooden wall or floor as I make my way to the Electromagnetic location. Doing this expands the base range, and doing it enough will let you reach the Electro Generator. I know you don't have to, but I usually connect it to a battery at each location. I then make multiple electronic wires going from the Electro Generator to the Mineral Extractor. Sure, it might be a pain to do so, but in doing so, I never have to worry about them stop working as they always have power. On the very rare chance I somehow have too much power draw from 1 Electromagnetic Generator, then I can always make more. It's an investment that pays off, especially if there are multiple Mining locations around. I could have a Silver Deep Level Mining in one location. Then, I'd have the Electromagnetic Generator like 400 to 600u away. What's to say I might not have a location another 300 to 500 away for a Gas Extractor? Both locations could be powered by the same electromagnetic generator. However, I'd probably make a 2nd base at the Gas Extractor making it easier. Having a landing pad at both locations (or a short-range teleporter) would be a plus. Just an extra tip I can add to this one.

I use the “orbital bombardment” strategy, just put the infra knife on a ship with lots of storage and fly across a dead planet, shoot the ground and it will collect the small rocks on the surface getting thousands of ferrite dust, dyhydrogen crystals and other resources

Thanks for this, I love this game & have spent hours doing things the long hard way, like mining the hell out one single planet, just for what turns out to be a common resource on the market. I didn't realise how easy unit making could be with the chlorine.

[@tabalugadragon3555]

Good advices. The only thing I disagree with is power. What you can to to build a huge farm of Gold\activated Indium: 1. Find the respurse hotspot 2. find the nearest electromagnetic power hotspot 3. Build base computer between them 4. Build the power generators and stretch them to the farm by making a few long wires. Why this is better than solar panels+batteries: 1) costs way less variable resourses than solar panels setup 2) takes FAR less building parts. In case not everybody knows - each base has a 3000 parts upload limit. Exceed it and the base will becoming non-uploadable. That's a bummer in case you wanna build a small town or something. And there is even worse 20000 parts global limit for ALL of your bases combined per save file. So the more efficient you are with your building parts - the better. Thanks for the video! I know it's a few years old now but almost everything still applies today!

[@rixxy9204]

I don't recommend #2, but the other suggestions are great. I'll only add that you always want to make sure your modules should be stacked in a square to make the most of the bonuses.

“Oh, and if you find a room full of eggs, don’t shy away, give one a shake. Those little face-huggers are worth more than this ship.” I’m really glad they still let you split upgrades on your ship inventories. My fighter was straight up greased lightning, doubled up phase beam and acceleration modules. I was “farming” nanites by hunting pirates as well as doin a bit of pirating myself... interesting to see they added solar panels to power your base. I always liked No Man’s Sky because I’m an off grid survival enthusiast, and not only do I really appreciate that level of realism, but I’m excited a game like NMS exists to raise awareness about the importance of renewable energy sources (you can’t necessarily find Plutonium on every planet). Can’t wait to get panels set up out here so I can cruise around the universe again.

I wish they had windmills for power, though. Some of the planets I've discovered have really nice winds that would be handy for generating power.

[@sonpopco-op9682]

Biofuel reactors are perfect paired with your little-used teleporters. I often have them set up near points of interest, and rather than hooking in a solar power & battery system, you simply throw 3 or 4 carbon into it, open the teleporter & go.

[@dudeguy8686]

I did the same when I first started playing, gold/silver/platinum seemed so lucrative. Economy crashes are awesome though, and what i've found that's the easiest item to trade (early - mid game) is wiring looms. Once you have enough cash to buy 40 or so, move from system to system selling what you have and then buying them right back (adding what the stations have), being sure to upgrade your suit along the way. Looms are traded at every station, so you'll always be able to increase your stock, and the price difference between buying/selling the stack is pretty massive. The only more efficient way of making money is building an activated iridium farm. It's a costly investment to build a decently sized mine (in both cash for materials, and time in finding a suitable location), but then money no longer becomes a problem. The real beauty of the game is that you can play it however you prefer, and my preference is cheesing as much as possible so that I can focus on building/collecting.

There are videos out there for doing that ... I tried to make one myself at the edge of space and the base doesn't render.

Also the best tip is to turn off build base restrictions so you can build stuff with out a base computer and just build a ramp up. I haven't tried it again since the last failure, but I switch to building a full base including bio domes due to a quick of the game

@@ericjohnson1335 I am not sure about on the PS4 ... but on the PC there is a file basically in text you can go in and just edit with notepad. I found out about the height cap for rendering the hard way. I watched other people's videos on making a space base and thought I did it similiar but I guess it was a tad too high. There is a point you get so high your oxygen depletes in seconds and you can't build past that point .... officially. If I were you I would experiment with heights first then relog and see if it renders or not. The other way to build a space base without altering build restrictions is put a computer down and claim the base and start building up with ramps. You might have to set a second base part way up. But when you get to the heigth you want you might be too close to the second base to set the third and final base. when you hit that point you just build away from the base with flat squares until you are far enough away to set one. It will be a bit past the area you can't build anymore but you can still stand within the build area and build out until its far enough to do the final base.

[@KuKoKaNuKo]

Ancient bones arent worth the search.... Salvageable scrap is worth a lot more. Also, easy way to get horror eggs (Larval Cores) is find an abandoned base like normal... park ur ship really close. Harvest 1 egg to trigger the horrors... wait for them to go aggressive... enter ur ship... take a couple seconds... exit. If horrors attack, hop back into ur ship. They glitch and become passive so you can harvest peacefully.... just DONT run too far ahead of them or they reset. Walk around the base collecting eggs, ez pz. To passive glitch them it can take 1-5 attempts to duck n cover in ur ship... so make sure u can take a few hits since ur suits shields wont regen that quickly. Also at 8:06 if u have the nanites... I also highly recommend upgrading your MT scanner with S class mods... this way an animal which gives u a default discovery credit of 1,000 can give you over 300,000. If you enjoy exploring for salvage data or salvaged scrap or materials... another really useful upgrade is Hazard Protection upgrades, these give you protection from the elements of extreme weather planets. Even class B mods work well since they are a timed protection and a radiation planet will have Uranium nodes which recharges ur Radiation protection shield. Carry 1-2 stacks on you and you never have to worry about radiation as you explore. (Frozen planets have Dioxite which recharge ur frost shield / Scorched planets have Phosphorours.... etc etc)

I've heard the tip (multiple times in multiple recent videos from various players and even the wiki) that finishing a campaign and travelling to a different galaxy prevents you from returning to the old one for the most part, but I finished the Atlas and Apollo quest lines yesterday, picked a Lush galaxy(Eissentam), and can still use space station teleporters to return to any station or base I've visited in the past (Euclid). Seems like a new feature that hasn't hit the grape vine yet.

@@MrEli768 no, you can put only 10 carbon in.

Tips from my personal experience- 1. Selling contraband!!! If you have enough money buy yourself some contraband from outlaw stations then sell it at regular space stations for millions 2. Farming- I personally farm nip nip buds as well as plants that allow you to craft liquid bombs 1 liquid bomb is worth 800,000 3. Try to travel to systems with a 3 star economy so if you ever find yourself back in that system needing to sell things then you will make a decent profit 4. Take your time finding the right planet for your base. It took me 3 days to find the perfect planet. Everyone’s definition of perfect is different tho for example my main base is on a tropical island type of planet with heat storms in a pirate system I don’t mind the heat storms bc of how nice the planet is and my base is on a mountain so I get an amazing ocean and island view. There are planets called “paradise planets” these are planets with no storms or harmful things so usually this would be the ideal place for a base but it’s really preference. 5. Dispatch pirates sometimes their bounties are worth half a million
