Been there. Suuuuuuuucks
Yeah I'm definitely starting to feel a little annoyed myself. I mean at the rate my current hyper drive is taking me, 300LY ish it's gonna take WEEKS to get to the center. There has to be something we are all missing here.

So I just did a quick test sold some Heredium to a ship trader at a space station at 106% above galactic average. Then I looked at their buy price again and they were buying it for less than they were before, 98% percent above average. They left the station and came back, and their price was now below average.
So far we can conclude:
- traders each have their own buy/sell prices that are separate from the system trading panels
- these prices fluctuate as they go on their trading routes
- selling (and probably buying) from a trader influences their future prices for those items
I didn't notice selling or buying from the panels affected prices, but then my current abilities to trade are paltry at best, so my transactions may have negligible impact on the system's prices vs. individual traders

So after 5 hours of not knowing what I'm doing, being harassed on my starter planets by heat and vicious attacking monsters, I started a new game and I'm now in a place that can only be described as peaceful and beautiful as opposed to the grimey wasteland I first arrived in, I'm going to fully plunder and discover this starting zone and give this game a fairer shot now.
I feel like ships should have a "trade-in" value when you buy a new one. Without it, continuing to buy exosuit space is the better bang for the buck. I don't want to drop 4 million for an 8 space advantage over my previous ship when 8 exosuit spaces is another 2-2.5 million.

I don't even have an Atlas destination anymore and I'm not sure I'll even be able to receive another now. If I do though, I won't be able to take anymore black holes or I'll be locked out. Honestly the strange way progression is gated is frankly rather annoying. Even the black holes don't actually seem to be doing anything and I'm still 170k from the core. I don't really even know what path to take now since reaching the center this way will take forever so I'm just bouncing around hoping for another space anomaly now.
you arent placing one, he's telling you were it is. Go to free exploration and look for the planet thing to simply say "black hole" to find one on your own.

Yeah absolutely. You playing w headphones? Do that. It's even more pronounced.
So I'm about 160k light years away from the center. I've seen 4 space anomalies and all of the Atlas interfaces. What do I do now? Just keep heading to the center? I feel like I've run out of a clear goal aside from "just keep jumping and building warp cells".
Like, don't spoil the center for me, but how are you actually supposed to get there? I feel like I'm missing something. There's no way I'll ever make it there at this pace, I can't even get my cursor there on the galaxy map.

First of all "Sean Murphy"? And he's quitting the game after already going through it once and then going through a second time. Well, it must have been compelling enough for him to trundle through it a second time!
I can't tell if his whole deal is a stick or if that's really him; but if that's really him ... just wow...
What about the ship? Are those empty spaces just locked forever? I downgraded to a new ship woth 1 less slot because it looked cooler and i was tired of my starter ship
We should name our ships.
There's

How come it screws you over.
Because you need a certain amount of Atlas stones to finish that path and if you sell any then you have to track down a station that's selling them and buy them for an absurd amount of units.

It's going to take a lot to get me to switch ships. I'm trying to upgrade my warp drive instead.
Do certain ships provide a warping benefit or is that exclusively the department of upgrades?

Didn't need to since I only have 1 page.
Happened again later with a poison shield BP. Discovered it, hit the touch pad, check the upgrade list and it's not there. Fucking bugs.

I've been farming a planet that is rich with Graviton Balls. I just run around using the melee and boost method, the sentinels can't really keep up with me. Fill my ship and suit up, go the space station and wait for the ship that I know will pay +%104 for them and make about 1.4 million in a run.
Anyone have tips on dealing with multiple enemy ships?
I got absolutely fucking mauled by 4-5 pirate ships. All constantly circling me, firing with near 100% accuracy. I couldn't keep up with the rotation and charging shields in inventory is a clusterfuck.

Thats's a good looking landscape. Might end up using one as a wallpaper one day.Restarted my game for a second time (out of fear of losing my ship and being out a hyperdrive), this time doing the tutorial and approaching the game with, uh, tempered expectations, and I'm enjoying it a bit more.
It helps that my starter planet this time was actually cool, and not a shitty super poisonous world with nothing but lousy little brain crabs.

My LE copy arrived when I got home and I'm finally about to start.
Won't be downloading my codes until I leave this planet.

Yep.
Game just crashed, went back to the same abandoned outpost and found the underwater BP again and this time it's in the list.
That post mentions all the big ticket technical items I think, cool
streaming now, in desperate need of copper to make my next jump. If anyone knows where I can find copper. plz halp.
Btw asteroid fields around planet orbits are a great source of Iridium, Nickel, and Iron, for sure. Especially iridium.

come chill, hopefully won't be too long before I can warp

All the tiny asteroids are an amazing source for Thanium9 too I've found.

Found my first extreme hot planet (well moon actually) plus it had storms that brought the temperature up to 305. Fun stuff! It does seem to have an abundance of exotic materials, though.

Why cant I 100% any planet? I get every other creature and there is always one left and I can never find the last one. No matter how many hours I spend. I find the rest if them super fast and get stuck on the last one. I get all the fish, all the birds. I go in every cave. Nothing. Im thinking its bugged. Its infuriating.

The same thing happened to me. I got a warp reactor theta upgrade and when I went to the inventory, it was gone.

The only copper I've found this far is from asteroids. 95% sure of it.
and I just did when making a pitstop for fuel. this is sweet!

after 20h I think i reached my limit with this game :/
I'm currently stuck under the geometry of a planet, and unable to reload an earlier save. It seems like other players are having to completely start over because of this. I'm already 10 plus hours in and don't see myself playing anymore if I have to start over.

Sean Murray said:
I don't quite understand this. Didn't Sean have the info on how many pre-orders there were? I assume Sony must've had some sales projections for day-1 purchases as well.
Sean Murray said:
Interesting, so they have been relying on Sony's QA up until now. I had a feeling they didn't have their own QA staff; things like the pre-order bug would have been caught fairly quickly otherwise. But there's some missing story about why Sony didn't catch these kinds of bugs. Regardless, it's good to see Hello taking these bugs and crashes seriously. As I said earlier, I don't envy Sean & team right now, as they have a lot of bugs and crashes to fix, some of which might be very hard to debug.

This game....wow! I haven't had so much fun doing absolutely nothing in such a long time!
I'm still on my starting world, walking around enjoying the sites. I don't want to leave until I 100% it though - scanning those stupid bird/bat things was a royal pain, but I finally got it, so I'm stuck on one more...ugh. I've played 15 hours or so looking for this damn thing...walking...until i realized i can fly around. oops. I did manage to learn a whole crapload of alien words, and have 21 exo-suit slots, so that's a plus i guess.
I did find a broken statue head of a giant pokemon at a ruin though..wonder what else i can turn up!
oh well..back to doing nothing!
edit: oooh...I just remembered that I had a question - I see these small white circles every once in a while..are these places I've been told about but not discovered or something?
