So I'm on my second system and still using this 8 slot Multi-Tool I got early on. I haven't found any that are better yet, what gives?

So I think my biggest gripe with this game is this ship controls lol. Just feels so unwieldy especially when you're on a planet.
Other than that, it's great. I was sad when I found this alien dude at an outpost and he was gonna give me a better multitool, but I closed the menu so I could dismantly my multitool addons and then he wouldn't give it to me anymore

So what have y'all found as the best way to make money? I mean outside of finding a planet with nice rare trade items.

Walk around the spot till it says "place reached", and move on. It's a bug, but I've had quests return me to the same place if I haven't "greyed out" the icon by marking it "place reached".

Thanks. I'll have to try that.
Found a apparantly booring moon with lots of copper. Did a scan and found it had underground treasures, so I blew my way into the underground caves and what did I find? Wortex Cubes everywhere. One 20 min run yelded 2,4 milion credits.
So the lesson I learned and I share with all you explorers out there today is: Never underestimate a planet/moon, just because you do not find much of interest on the ground. You never know what you might find underground...

It's 100% up to you. I'd go as far as to say that's the point of the game.
Sell them. Depending on the system you're selling in, certain ones may be more desired than others, but unless you're getting heavy into trading just sell them all at will.
They occasionally can be used to trade with aliens for some bonuses, but its kind of random and rare when that option pops up, so I suggest sell.

So can anyone tell me when I get access to > 8 slot Multi-Tools?
I stumbled upon one almost immediately after leaving the first planet. It was offered to me by a creature.
I'm addicted to this game. It's exactly what Murray and his team promised, and they've nailed the wonderment of exploration and utter insignificance of a lone traveller in the universe.

Stumbled across this monument thing. Couldn't find any way to interact with it, had to tear myself away.

I've been picking them up apparently but they're bugged and I'm not getting them added to blueprints. Just picked up warp reactor Tau and it's not there when I try to make it.

Have found I tap out around two hours tops. Although I did discover a planet littered w gravitno balls and I farmed that for an entire day this week. And it was a blast to maneuver as it had huge plain w rolung mountains and giant mushrooms. Whenever you picked a ball up you'd get an immediate three star sentinel warning but I kept running/melee/jumping and they were never a threat. $1 mill / half hour.

Damn, I'm already on my second system and can't seem to come across anything better in any of the outposts.
Even one offered to me from a monolith encounter was 7 slot...
When you stumble upon aliens in houses, they sometimes have a multitool for sale. Also when you get the strange signal message, this signal originates from the system your in. Look for a purple sign in the sky; they also sell a multitool (also they have blue keycards when you reach certain goals in the game)
at the orange beacon. use 4 overide keycards to select all 4 choices. Transmitter often sends you to an alien shelter with an alien inside. Also, solve riddle on machine inside and get coordinates to crashed starship with one more slot than what ever you have (unless you have 48, which I believe is max; remember, there is only one crash site per planet/moon)

Getting kind of bored. Any way to liven up the game?
Read online when you get to level 8 for killing starships (pirates) then you can pick it up at a purple signed Operation Center in a Korvax system
I just got one. Go to a Korvax system and go to Operation Centres. They're a random reward. Same with the v3 apparently.

I'm actually enjoying the game more now. I have more inventory space in my suit (spent all my cash on that). Jetpack and Stamina upgrades make traversing by foot a lot more enjoyable. But most of all I have run into a few more planets full of life. 12-13 species, tones of flora, temperate climates. I had a really bad draw in the beginning of just a bunch of desolate no fun planets.
Game is still in the double digits for crashing for me though. I've actually had three in a row trying to exit the system I'm in now.

Well, I finally beat it. And by 'it', I guess I mean 'part of it'. And by 'part of it', I mean
(Note - Major spoilers in spoiler tags ahead) The story was actually pretty cool and pretty
Seemed to me like the player was
Most importantly, my reward was the luck of the draw making my next planet the tropical oceanic paradise I'd been looking for for 30 hours. Massive oceans as far as the eye can see, with turtles and actual palm trees and underwater bases. Tropical storms and tiny islands in the middle of nowhere, green grass leading down to the beach. It's amazing
The other reward was getting
Somehow I managed to get that far with a 20 slot ship and having never held more than 1,000,000 credits. On my last jump before the end the game threw me into a 16 ship battle which was a cool 'last trial', even though I'm sure it was just a random coincidence.
Also, quick question - what's the difference between Beam 'Intensity' and Beam 'Focus'?
the path of atlas.
meta.
coming to the realisation that he's in an algorithmically generated universe, which was cool. And the ending, that you 'create' a new system for a new player, was also cool.

I'm not sure but I REALLY wish there was more feedback for that stuff. Like a dictionary with the words you've discovered and their alien counterparts and a graph or meter of your relationship with the races
A lot more just raw data feedback is my biggest complaint with the game at the moment. I wish there was a better way to see atmosphere levels and planet size and biome after you've discovered it.
That and I wish the in atmosphere flying was a lot more free.
This game is still fantastic, but there is so much more potential for depth.

I say just stay on a planet until it bores you. There are some planets I've spent half a dozen hours on and others where I've left after ten minutes. It's not like there's really gonna be a shortage of them
Go pirating?

So, after beating the game does it let you go back and just do explore mode and go wherever you want?
Nope. I just try to keep myself oriented, but it is really hard.
PSA - I loaded my game on the PS4 after it crashed and it had reset me back to the beginning (initializing scene and everything.) After panic subsided, I tried to replace the local save with one from the cloud. Still no change. But after I got through the beginning scene, I tried loading my second save from the option menu. Success! If this happens to you don't despair. - End PSA
I am still LOVING this game! Just finished visiting a highly toxic planet where all fauna was out to kill you. It had poison sacs on the ground that when mined were worth 30k each! As soon as you mined one very aggressive sentinels came to the party. Titanium and Credits for everyone! Left that planet after an hour with a couple of million in the bank. Quick stop at the local space station for a ship upgrade and the adventure continues. I love being among the stars. >.<

Sigh... Yeah it really is. I just need to be able to put a custom waypoints
I really wonder what they were smoking sometime.

Game is pretty bad. Every station, terminal, save terminal, all about the same...i mean really? The planets are so generated to where it's exactly how I felt it'd be, just no character at all. Caves that lead no where and are identical. Planets simply devoid of anything to do really. All the little gimmick stops are the same.
And for fucks sake, all you do is charge your fucking life support.
It's pretty bad.. The scope and size of the universe feels large and could have potential but the game is still a tech demo, that's it.

Make sure you use the Phase Beam and not the Photon Cannon (hit triangle). Makes things much faster. Upgrade it for the cooling and you can usually down most of them in one pass.

There is the indicator that shows you how to lead your shots, but other than that I haven't seen any kind of lock on. I've only fought two pirates at once, though, and they wrecked me pretty badly, but I still have a small ship that I haven't upgraded at all
Someone earlier in the thread said 38, but I'm not 100% sure

EDIT : Oh wait, i think i misread. ONLY READ BELOW IF YOU REACHED THE CENTER
did planets get weirder and weirder for you? I heard that didn't end up happening for most people. However, im wondering if their whole mixing up galaxy and universe wording had a point. Basically, im wondering if every galaxy jump takes us one step closer to the centre of the universe, did you get any info that the jump could have been somewhat closer or something? Kinda weird question
