Never really bothered me either, apart from some specific cases (like crafting those damn warp cells).
It hasn't changed for stuff like discarding items for instance.

My problem with the UI is some elements, like NPC dialog and options, take too long to display.

Indeed. Dealt with that last night trying to buy resources from every pilot that came into the space station and checking their asking prices for ships I liked.

Pain in the ass when you're looking for a new ship. I remember it was instantaneous in one of the demos, I wonder why they changed it.
Are you talking about those long pole antenna things? The transmission towers I speak of should only be giving you a distress signal to a crashed ship after solving a puzzle. If you're having trouble finding a transmission tower you can use a bypass chip on a signal scanner to help find one. Just select the transmission option.
1. If you hsve 3 waypoints in the galactic map, then you're screwed. They cannot appear because there is no way at the momment to clear waypoints.
2. You think you jump by 1600LY, but that jump reduces the distance to center only by 400LY.
I hope that both get fixed in the latest patch.

Has anyone noticed that the crafting menu has a Curiousity tab? Has anyone found a blueprint for one of the curiosities?
I think you're using the signal scanners, the boxes with orange lasers shooting out the top that you use bypass chips on. Transmission towers have one of the round consoles inside and usually an alien sitting inside, interact with the console and you get a simple math puzzle. It always directs you to a ship if you solve it.
For the signal scanner, just keep crafting bypass chips and selecting transmission. Eventually you'll get a transmission tower.

Most of us are probably near the 50 hour mark. Soon we'll return it.

I'm well over that and have no desire to return it.
Its like we are in the wrong for enjoying something and thats annoying.

I'm in the same range and still wondering "but what do you do?" as I stand in place near my crashed ship.
More than triple that for me
Heh

ahhh, that's why. Thank you very much
Yeah, I don't know what that's for. Upcoming things perhaps?

Found a planet covered with avocados and vortex cubes yesterday. Spent a while there getting fat (on units) and left 50 million richer.

Seeing this OT still on the front page warms the cockles of my heart. Every time I see another "NMS killed my parents" thread pop up, I come here and bask in y'all's light.
It's people like you that'll get this game the support it deserves for years to come.

I'm making units in the game but no where near what others are reporting. I'm lucky if I get 60k from selling resources. Things like gold, aluminum, and gravity balls. What should I be doing different?
Also, games graphics are still borked for me on ps4. Still the only game that messes up. Hoping with every patch, it'll get fixed.

Selling just three graviton balls will give you more than that.

The planets I've found them on never have a trade station close by so I have to fly back and fourth to the space station. Ship is also still pretty basic and low on slots.

Pillage mineral deposits, the big crystalline ones are the best as they give a better return than rocky mineral deposits. I found a planet with lots of Emeril Crystals and bought loads of suit slots with my cash
tldr; Look for big blue or green crystals like the red plutonium ones and mine them.

If you find a planet with Albumen Pearls, never leave.
Early on in my playthrough I found a planet with a ton of these and an outpost with a portable GTT. I was able to completely fill up my inventory and sell them all for about 900K every 5 minutes, and this was before I had maxed out inventory.

Even better, doing the Vortex Cube glitch to get them to stack (up to a 100) in one slot is the way to go. Around 2,5 mil base value per stack.
Unrelated, first planet after the update is just about the biggest and lushest forest I have ever seen and it is getting me huge framedrops on PS4. Sub 15 even.
I really hope Hello Games will consider tweaking the scale of flora to allow that sort of stuff in the vanilla game. It looks amazing.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. That's definitely the way to go, especially if you find a station that marks up the sell price.
So I got all the suit upgrades, but my ship is kind of... eh. Don't have the units to buy into the good bracket of ships yet, and my current one can jump from Atlas Interface to Atlas Interface in 1-2 jumps, meaning that questline is about to get done.
I think my plan will be something like this. Do Atlas. Get 30-ish slot ship. Start discovering animals for those full-planet milestones while heading for the Center.
I mean, I can't take my Warp Reactors with me, so if I get a new ship, I can't do those super-long jumps until I rebuild. So, Atlas first, then ship. The idea is to buy a 3-5 million unit ship and then do crashed ones for the rest, right?

I'm finding it waaaaay easier to scan flying things after this update. Might be a coincidence but I think they've tweaked it to make it easier. Really glad as it was driving me mad trying to scan some of the fast moving bird-type creatures.

If you don't mind using an exploit the fastest way to upgrade your ship is doing the Gek transmission terminals. Do it now because the next patch will fix this.
I waited until I got a 48 slot ship before decking it out with blueprints and heading to the center.

Frankly, I'd just jump systems until you find one with a planet that has expensive harvestable resources on the planet/moon closest to the space station and farm them there. I lucked out in my 5th system or so and had a planet 3 seconds away from the space station with mild weather, low sentinel presence and vortex cubes everywhere (and the vortex cubes had a 100% markup in the space station terminal). I was tempted to stay there and farm forever, but that struck me as the wrong way to play the game, so I set off after clearing 10 million or so and getting a slightly larger ship. Haven't found another system yet with that sort of farming capability, but jumping between systems until you find a good one still seems like the best bet.

I'm just about to go back in and investigate 10 crashed ships i marked with the Gek tower glitch. I'm hoping to get at least 5 upgrades and a whole slew of materials out of it
I did buy a ship but that was a long time ago and i just use crashed ones now and upgrade one only when i want to leave the system.

Depends on the number of species you have to find. It's 25k per.
Yep they made it easier this patch we are now getting some gameplay changes it seems.
Ah I see. I've only uploaded planets with 0 species before really to get the trophy.

I can confirm that Extreme Survival is fixed with 1.7
Landed on a extreme planet and waited until the sols started to increase, went into space, went back and it started where I left of.
To be sure I left the planet again and traveled to another planet and went back, still working.

Selling Gold, selling those little nicknacks you find in chests and stuff.
It does depend on the planet though.

Ha Just as I finish an 8h run to get that one.
I cheesed the last 2
Oh well. Goodbye, 322.6˚C planet. You won't be missed.

I like how the refund thread is mostly people who don't own the game celebrating you can refund past the 10 hour mark, or goading others to do it.
Like what? Can you make your true intent any more obvious?
You find slots in the field at settlements they always in this floating machines.
Fuel is easy to come by would not worry about that.
