What are hex Cores for? I get them sometimes and they don't do anything that can tel and aren't valuable for selling. I don't want to trash them because they are rare. Are they worth keeping or are they just trash ?

[@AverageGameReviews]

@@wray2real They aren't useful for anything - potentially worth storing incase they become needed for a community event perhaps, but other than that there is little reason for them to exist! More of a curiosity thing.

[@G4JVideos]

Just started, and this is quite helpful. Thank you! Do you have a quick guide on how to get Paraffinin for building the first vehicle? I got the other resources but can't find the material on any planets or the trade terminals.

[@thainguyen5987]

how to navigate to the building menu ? Z button does not have that option anymore

[@notlisztening9821]

I think you left out the two most useful things i wish i had known when i started: 1) While sprinting press (and hold) melee and immediately afterward rocketjump to do a dash. 2) get the best possible expansion for your visor at the space station. You'll get 10000% more credits per scan -> it's basically unlimited money.

Sometimes, aimless exploration consisting of trial and error can be a good way to experience something

[@waldo2543]

@@volrogue Just got the game while it was on sale, been having a blast in permadeath mode, didnt look up any guides until yesterday when I was trying to figure out how to power a mining base with a power hotspot. The game has completely consumed me, just passed 60 hours on my save, haven't worked out in 4 days now and its 3:30 am, goodnight.

[@WildWombats]

I am in a similar situation as waldo above me. I just played the game in 2023 a month ago for the first time ever. I have sunk about 60 hours in as well myself. I have seen virtually no playthroughs, guides, nothing more than talk really about the game. So I went in TOTALLY blind. I will say the tutorial does a pretty decent job. But if you just can't stand not knowing every single thing right out the gate (some people be like that), then sure, look up a guide on how to min-max. But to me, that takes away the fun of finding out what is fun TO YOU. I'm all about having fun, not about min-maxing. It takes away so many elements of wonder and discovery to me when you already know what to expect coming into the game. I didn't, and everything I found was totally new, and to top it off, their in-game Guide is more than sufficient to answer most questions I had. I will say the more in-depth and complex stuff, I would've never known without looking up a guide. I realize I have a looot to learn still. But for comparison, I learned about 99% of what's in this video on my own time - no help guides beyond the in-game one from time to time. The only fact I didn't know was oxygen and chlorine makes more chlorine. I personally like figuring things out and being left with the wonder of "What's next?" rather than knowing it all immediately. That's why I've only recently began looking up guides after having my fill of ~60 hours in the game to see if I'm missing out on things. But for now, I feel I could play another 100-200 hours without feeling the need to go to a guide to get that next feel of what I should do. I like to make money while having fun rather than go out of my way to do something I may or may not like in a grind which may or may not be fun. I've managed to make millions of units fairly easily just playing my own way. You figure out what works for you

[@SaintTrident]

Shouldn't game be intrigutive during first walkthrough? NMS has pretty informative in-game tutorial except few things such as useful key-bindings like resizable landminer field or that you need to use the economy scanner from toolbar to find trade outpost. I think everyone should go through 1\4 of main story at least to get all the things accessible before using "how to get everything in 5 minutes guides". Does it make sense? Actually there is even information in the game about trading outposts have better prices than the space station ones I think sandbox-like games should be like NMS. Even minecraft in early days (alpha\beta patches) were painful without those wikies with all information about the game. One thing I would like to have in NMS is having like cities to make game more realistic but we have unlimited space with 70 humanoids per system (wut??)

[@WildWombats]

@@SaintTrident I agree. I tried to complete the main quest (mostly, up until the galactic core part) before looking up any guides which is where i'm at now. I totally agree about sandbox games being like this and Minecraft. It gives you many different ways to play, and you can play how you find most fun.

[@Hunter_2-1]

Other things to note: - Landing on landing pads and then taking off will not consume launch thruster fuel. - Find as much salvaged data modules as you can as they amount collected varies from 1-4 for every spot. And use the data to unlock as much of the crafting components as you can so you can start making and selling them for high prices when you can afford to. (This can benefit you early on) - Be sure to also purchase agricultural equipment and crafting recipes in the anomaly for the various growable plants as they allow you to make many late game items. Each plant has a different growth time. - Buy crafting materials from landed pilots in the space stations as they carry valuable items including elements used for fuel and crafting late game items. -Sell your items to those same landed pilots in the stations as doing so will not affect the prices in the systems economy for the same items. - The best way, not necessarily the easiest, to get nanites early on is to hunt abandoned bases as they contain larval cores. They refine into 50 nanites each, but make sure to put a base computer there and build walls around the egg clusters (Trust me you will want to if you're still getting started and have poorly classed gear and health.) - Purchasing warp upgrades to your ship is a must if you want to extend your jump distances, this varies for every type of ship. Explorer Types have the best jumping capabilities. - Every ship can have the same amount of inventory and can hold the same variety of items. However, the lower the class the lower the amount you can hold. You can purchase inventory slots in the space stations, but be weary as the prices get into the hundreds of millions per slot. - Having a freighter in the best thing because that is where you can store your ships in its hangar. It can also function as a nomadic base, AND if you rescue one from a pirate attack you get it for free instead of having to pay millions of units outright. ALL of these types of things can be accomplished in your first 50 hours of gameplay if you try good enough. And if you are successful you will be on the fast track to lots of riches, better ships, and better equipment. Everything else, including the multiple story and side quests, can be done at your own leisure as it is all self paced.

[@ryanlaune5599]

Solid video, Here are a few things I would add on as a pretty new player myself. 1. do not refine tritium into Di-hydrogen. You can get di-hydrogen on any planet surface easily just like ferrite dust 2. early nanite farming from scanning gets a great boost if you can scan all the available animals on a planet. Pull up the list of animals for the planet to see how many there are/how many you have left/ and some info on what/where to find them. On this page is also a nanite bonus if you collect them all. depending on how many are on the planet this can be a few thousand nanites. 3. for early money if you don't want to mine/refine materials, trade routes are another great way to get units.

[@AverageGameReviews]

Thanks for adding this! It's much appreciated :)

Boost Jumping! Sprint and hit Meele and then your jet pack. You will go super fast. Saves so much time when going to deposits etc.

[@TheMadMurf]

One thing that frustrated me for far too long is that when you start getting upgrades that allow you to expand your exosuit, you can select which slot you want to open. The game defaults to an additional cargo/inventory slot but you can choose a technology slot instead. Embarrassing how long it took me to figure that out.

[@aamry]

Well. now I know what I'm doing later today. I've been grinding inventory slots

[@MyAmazingUsername]

Yeah this hit me too. The game has a pretty terrible user interface. Nothing indicates that you can select tech slots instead. Edit: Tbh this bad UI is a Hallmark of No Man's Sky. Half-implemented janky features. It is also a remnant of the fact that tech slots didn't exist in the past. Tech was installed in "the" inventory. There was only one area to upgrade. So the fact that they added tech slot is good, but as usual they forgot to polish the user interface to make this obvious.

[@LarsV62]

One tip for collecting contents from buried chests or science modules or other buried items you can pick up by hand: if your don't want to use terrain manipulator (or can't because you are inside someone's base limits or don't have the manipulator yet), just walk very close to it (sometimes directly on top of it) and you will most of the time be able to pick it up without using your multitool.

[@bendonaldson8764]

I think a lot of people are missing out on the movement strategy, by hitting the melee button and then jetpacking, you are thrust forward and can cover lots of land very quickly

[@MyAmazingUsername]

Even more if you sprint first, then melee, then jetpack. This puts more forward speed.

[@raithrover1976]

Something i'd add for new players; popping any rusted metal in the portable refiner gives you an ample supply of ferrite dust as it refines at a 1 to 2 ratio. It saves spending time blasting rocks.

[@RKDriver]

Thanks. I've been leaving it behind because it takes up a valuable inventory slot and didn't know really what to do with it except sell it for pennies to those scrap guys at the star bases.

[@kingog9421]

Thx bro

[@kingog9421]

So you have any Tip left?

[@buffybot635]

I love to upgrade your scanner/analyser very early and then just get a lot of money just from scanning stuff on planets. This will give you units and nanits. And is a fun and interesting way to play the game. Just explore.

[@1MoTimeRound]

Should have mentioned how to trade in navigation data for specific charts. Early game, I prefer making my money from ship salvage. It's easy to find navigation data and with a chart, you're directed to a downed ship. This will usually yield more than a million units, even more if you find a hauler. It also leads you to possibly better ships than your starter. Finally, scrapping those ships also results in upgrades that can be applied to your ship(s). Other charts will lead to treasures, though they may involve sentinel fights.

[@samuelgray6040]

You can actually buy a distress chart from the cartographer for 15 nanites, as whilst it says that it gives a random chart it almost always gives you a distress chart, I've never seen it give anything else. Unless the chart directs you to an abandoned building, as long as you have a terrain manipulator you can basically convert 15 nanites into around 1 million units.

[@void_presence]

A lot of this content IS somewhat explained in the story arc of the game which you are put into when you start the game (although it's certainly not required), and most of the other elements here you find out through by doing the steps in the story arc. Nevertheless, this is a nice compendium of these things and is appreciated. Another note, there have been big updates to this game since then that has made all the survival aspects optional.

[@funnatopia704]

Useless but Fun Fact: The occasional fleets that fly above you when you're on planets aren't always unowned NPC's. Sometimes, those fleet ships belong to an actual player who sent them off onto an expedition. Isn't that cool?

[@ViolinChick5]

Great video! I wish I’d had this when I started playing a few months ago but glad it’s here for new players. I learned some new things, too, which is always awesome. One thing to add about earning nanites, especially in the early game: if you scan every creature on a planet, you can go into the Discoveries tab for that planet and claim a big bonus chunk of nanites. The amount changes depending on how many creatures are in the planet- some as high as 3,500! Takes a little time but isn’t much work and is low risk

[@danielknapp3141]

For building, I recommend unlocking stone stuff first. The base material is silicon, the stuff you get from using the mining tool on literally anything but deposits. So you will likely have more than you will ever need. (Then again, perhaps I just go overboard on using the mining tool every time a sentinel sees me break a rock, or flattening out a whole landing platform in the middle of a mountain.)

[@danielknapp3141]

1:09 it is actually much more efficient to use the "flatten surface" mode to mine those deposits. Be sure to scan when available while doing so to make sure you get it all. (Just use the mine mode to make a hole down to where you flatten again) it saves time and does a more complete job. No lingering, almost invisible chunks the scanner picks up.

[@RKDriver]

Haven't tested it to compare but many say to put the mining tool on the smallest reticle to mine deposits as the yield is much higher.

[@metalbearuk]

I like how you included the easiest ways of doing things rather than the most efficient way. What may be obvious to a veteran player is not so to a new one. For example, instead of installing an economy scanner to find trade outposts, just fly around a planet until you find one. Or putting the junk from a damaged machinery into your inventory instead of just destroying the useless material. Simple. Can't mess it up.

One last comment. Go through the door to the right of the tech sellers. There is a second galactic exchange. Most items will be the same. Some will be different. All galactic exchanges in a system share the same pool of inventory items that are common. So if you buy 10 at one of them, any other exchange in the system will have 10 less inventory and can show negative inventory. Finally, the planetary exchanges tend to offer better prices for the common items.

Could you explain this a bit? Seems like I lose 30% of the invested units when I buy then scrap, what am I missing?

[@jacobpinson2834]

I know repairing crashed ships gives a lot of money and if you have millions you can buy and scrap ships until you have a certain number of inventory upgrades, use them on an A class ship, then scrap it for a profit across all your scrapping thought that is mostly used for nanites from all the ship upgrades you can sell to vendors

[@nitram_nosnibor]

Hiya@@User6468 So yes I go to a Space Station (in a system that I know I have a good standing) and use the goggles when a ship comes in to land and go for the A class if I can and buy them. Then make sure I have about half a dozen spaces empty in my Exosuit and then go to the first level of the station and scrap it. Then go and sell it at the trading post. If you get A's or even S's you will get augmentation modules so you can increase the space on your ship.

It is much more convenient for refining materials on the go -You can also make a lot of nanites and units by finding laval cores(those eggs that spawn on abandoned structures) but be careful because they spawn monsters so if you are new make sure you have good shields -Refine laval cores to make nanites or sell them for units -Salaged data can also be refined into Nanites but I do not recommend refining or selling it unless you are in the late game and havw unlocked everything.

It's easy to say that this is the best beginners guide I watched the last days. I like how structured it. Very very good. Thank you. Right now I follow your last step with the medium refiner. My problem is, that I need a lot of oxygen for that and to collect it takes a lot of time. I also just found out that to collect you can hold the collect buton. My question would be if you can buy oxygen. I saw it online in older posts but someone said that it got removed (10 months ago) with an update. If you can still buy it at the space station where exaclty? With a specific guy or from that "trading eye" → On the wiki it says: Can always be bought from any Galactic Trade Terminal or from pilot NPCs on Space Stations (only on "Goods Availability->Abundant" setting). But it doesn't work. Maybe I need to restart first. Edit: works now.

Another great money hack, is to unlock the Minotaur in the anomaly, then find and build a base on a planet with gravitino balls and/or storm crystals.

It requires a tiny bit of grinding but it's extremely worth it because you will be making 10 of millions in an hour

Its an amazing feat of the killer comeback, but they just lack that essential hand-holding. With each new massive free content release, there's so much to figure out, and it's so confusing that it's offputting. Twice this week I've picked it tried to pick it back up, but found myself being put off by simple things like 'What the hell is the Nexus, what's this derelict freighter, how do I get this stuff' etc. Great video, if you can throw a video together for each of the content releases, a lot of people will be happy

[@AverageGameReviews]

That's awesome feedback and a great idea! Thanks :)

Me realizing that I’ve scored right off the bat because my spawn planet has every valuable resource listed in this video

[@davidwahl5549]

1:54 Whoa, I have NEVER seen such a dense asteroid field in the game!

[@xModerax]

Good video. On a side thought ; Gold and Platinum would be nearly worthless in space and especially the later stages since its almost useless apart from fringe usages where its used in small quantities. Its readily available and contrary to water and fuels not in space demand

[@odysseyisland2235]

I remember they're being an extremely meticulous tutorial that is a series of quest that forced you to do one thing at a time until you learned how everything works.

[@LostHope84]

I just started and have no idea what to do. I’m collecting random stuff from rocks but my screen is green and it looks like I’m poisoned. So confusing.

[@UKGeezer]

@@LostHope84 Toxic rain most likely. Find a cave or jump in your ship until the storm passes. I'm new to game as well btw, it is confusing.

[@danielknapp3141]

I guess he did not figure out that the junk you clear out of damaged machinery, aside from rusted metal, can be refined 2 to 4 times to make nanites. So far, any biological junk can be refined this way.

[@mcflyingfury]

Helpful tip: most salvaged data can be picked up without using the terrain manipulator by just walking directly over it

[@AverageGameReviews]

Yes it certainly can! This will be included in an updated video when I get round to it, thanks :)

[@mcflyingfury]

@@AverageGameReviews yee

[@HongKongZ]

Tip for launch fuel: ALWAYS ONLY REFUEL WHEN 100% EMPTY, the fuel cell will fill to max, so don't waste it!

[@AverageGameReviews]

Very good point there!!

[@LarsV62]

Another tip for those who want to allow others to use your refiners in your bases: you now have to set that option in network settings on each save file you want to allow it. This is a new setting and is off by default.

[@Kenny-yu6gc]

Thanks for the chlorine tip! I used to do trading of trade goods from one system to next via a wiki though it was enjoyable and felt rewarding.

[@robdom91]

You know you see an elite No Man's Sky player when you see them harvest the hazardous flora using the interact key without getting hit!

[@Lightsaber_boi]

I really appreciate the video, especially the chlorine mining bit

[@fkmyoutube]

I just started this game, and it has been a blast. Just take your time to explore and enjoy the game.

[@ModernDayChristDisciples]

Me knowing basically everything about the game but still watching this

[@AverageGameReviews]

Any tips/tricks that you would add to this? Thinking of making a longer version of this video!

[@ModernDayChristDisciples]

@@AverageGameReviews Yeah, if you want to make some quick cash in early game than you can go over to a radioactive planet and go to one of the buildings that have the eggs. Break those eggs get the larva core and sell them. You can also get a medium refiner. Then put cobalt in, put oxygen in (make sure you have more oxygen than cobalt) refine it into ionized cobalt. Sell all that to a space station. But it back. Boom! Instant money. You can also tell if a creature is hostile or passive by scanning it. If it has a paw symbol, it’s passive. If it has a red dot it’s hostile.

[@nomadman_84]

get upgrades to your scanner (S rated), you can get massive pay offs for every scan on flora/fauna etc. millions are easy in the early game this way.

[@bronichiwa984]

I heard you can sell stuff to pilots landing in a trade post, and station to avoid crashing the economy. Haven't tried it yet, but wondering if you know if it's true or not.

[@oliveks82]

I got NMS yesterday ! and I am very lost. I needed this so bad haha

[@mrmando69]

My brain hurts. I'm gonna play pacman for a bit now

[@orkman198]

I just started NMS and one important thing that never got mentioned in the game and not in this video is the guardians, those flying sentinel robots on sime planets. I thougt they are evil by default but saw in some video they only attack you when you mine/take ressources on that planet or when they are nearby. I didnt know that, game never tells you. I saw one, thougt its evil attacked it, until more and more came and i couldnt do anything, not outrun them , too strong to fight... i managed to do my mission which was getting infos/stuff out of a space station and thougt i am safe in my spaceship/ in orbit but they even attack in space with ships. So i killed the ship and managed to lightspeed away... this is definitely a story i will remember, i was at 4 out of 5 dtone stars (like gta stars)... i managed to escape but sad the game doesnt tell you. Now i know for the future.

[@ipi223]

this game is so rich its minblowing! thanks for the tuto!

[@SpookManHQ]

Just started playing a few days ago, I'm hooked on this game. Great tips for making units, this will come in very handy. Thanks for the great information.

[@oldcaptainjack]

I was so excited at first for this because the idea of exploring so many planets across space sounded like my ideal game. Then I found out how overly complicated and inaccessible it was to the average player and I just couldn't enjoy it. Ditched it after about a day cos it was totally not what I was expecting it to be. If someone ever makes a more accessible open world space exploring game I'd be well up for that.

[@madbug1965]

I can't believe that the developers were so lazy they couldn't have added a tutorial to this complex game. The first two hours I played it was like wandering a mountain trail in pitch dark. Thank you for making this video ..

[@Visoloog]

Or just read the ingame guide😂 it's not that hard, it's pretty expansive.

[@Kenny-yu6gc]

Played a lot before and just need a refresher instead of relearning everything from scratch again.

[@AverageGameReviews]

Hope this was helpful!
