That helped it not crash when you warp? I've had warp crashes maybe 40% of the warps i've done after say warp 20ish. NEVER crashed before then (estimates) but since it's all the time. So much that i've stopped warping now and have spent 30-60 minutes here and there in my current system exploring the few planets hoping for patches. I've died on the planets multiple times so maybe i'll try a warp. That's shitty if that's the way to make it not crash on warps though :/

PS4...
Thanks but i already closed it and restarted my console. 30 minutes kf progress thrown away..
Yeah it fixed it for the warp crashing which happened 3 times in a row.
Yes, and I won't pretend to know the underlying problems lol.

I needed 100 of those for the theta damage mod for ship's laser.
EDIT: nm, just remembered it was Omegon I needed.

When they sent out the original day one patch, you had to delete any saves you had from playing before it had released to be able to access the "new" game.
I wonder if it's just the way the save file is. That after a patch you need to update it to the current version before you go titting about in space. It might cause a glitch.
That was only for the paths though. You could continue playing your game with the patch if you wanted.

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
They didn't fix the launching into space glitch with 1.04 on PS4.
Happened twice in a row.
Fucking hell HG, fix this. No excuse for something so simple to be broken.

Has anyone found Omegon somewhere? I have a blueprint which requires it. The wiki is not super helpful: http://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Omegon
Definitely hang onto Very Rare materials unless you're desperate for the cargo space. They are needed for some high level upgrades and (at least for the moment) legit hard to find.
Wok, I'm in need of Omegon too- apparently our best best is to check trade inventories at stations and trading posts. Remember that individual ships may have different items than the galactic trade network.
I'll be hoarding gravity balls tonight. Build up the bankroll after my ship purchase.

On another note, I am wondering why HG took out the ability to name ships. Would have been really fun.
This shit already happened to me pre-patch, seems like the patch made it more common lol
Yeah, definitely high on my list of stuff I want personally, they were clearly meant to be discoveries. Hopefully won't be too long.
I rather it come in as naming it personally. He talked about naming the class of ship that everyone would then see. there would be numerous amounts of people flying in Dickbutt class cruisers

lol why are you "compelled"? This is the NMS OT. We know about the reddit post, about crowbcat's super edgy roast vid, about the jurassic park "viral sensation of the week", etc... as there are separate threads already for each of those things here on GAF. Nobody here is in some sort of denial bubble. The game's got issues; some technical, some QoL, etc.. but in general people here are focused on playing the game (or trying to) instead of spending bandwidth on message board talking about how proud they are of themselves for not playing it.
Now this. This shit I love. Every time I pop into the OT or photo thread I see things I haven't come across yet. Really great shot here.
Haha don't feel bad! I 100% my first planet by scanning 3 different flying species while they were flying because I didn't realize you could scan corpses. It took soooo long. Now the first thing I do is kill those things.
That shot of the hidden landing pad looks pretty awesome. Sometimes the game just generates basic shit in really odd ways that make it a lot cooler. On the ocean planet I was on yesterday, I found some pretty strange things that had been generated underwater:
One of the few times I've felt that the "abandoned facility with gooey alien stuff" contextually made a lot of sense. There was even a weird tentacle/vine thing that was spewing some toxic cloud, hanging from the ceiling of the building, but I couldn't kill it for some reason, nor could I scan it because I was inside the building and it would just highlight the building as if I was trying to mark it. It looked like one of those land plants that whips out at you, but I had never seen one (or noticed) spit out a toxic substance before.
Yeah, the slot configuration on the MT definitely makes choosing one more strategic than simply "this one can fit more stuff", especially if you are trying to synergize similar items.

I think after a few more jumps I'll see about upgrading my 30 slot ship to a 48 slot and go for something cooler looking than the space-truck I've got now.

Fill me in on this Gek thing people are mentioning please. Is there a glitch I'm missing out on?
Finally got my first
and
. Now we're cooking with gas.
Oh, and I saw another predator chasing prey. I recorded it, because it was pretty funny.

Dang, wish I knew this yesterday. I did the crashed ship grind the normal way and it was painful. Caught a streak of 11 ships in a row being -1 slots :-(

WTF? Is this something later in the game? Not seen a Gek tower yet!

After 10s of hours of playing I finally got a warp drive upgrade that didn't bug out. Game changer.

What was the ~20MB update on Steam? I'm not in the experimental branch so just curious if it's the same but now pushed to the live branch?

Aww! Did the little creature die?
No, he got clean away. The predator was just too slow. Of course, if he'd turned around, there were half a dozen big lumbering grazers just to his left.
Fushichou187

haha Yeah the only predator I've come across to actually kill what it was chasing are crab creatures, as those things jam; a weird squirrel-insect-beaver thing I named "Geoff"; and I found a shark-like ocean predator that would just maul through groups of peaceful blobby monstrosities. But for the most part I haven't come across many straight up "predator" class creatures. Plenty with unstable temperament that'll attack you as well as others though.
I believe it's the same, yeah. I had gotten everything running and looking really well previously so it didn't do much for me though (the alt-tab is fixed which is nice).

What NPCs you encounter initially depends on where you start out, I believe. I've yet to come across Vy'Keen or Gek. Just Korvax for days and days.
I literally fell into a pack of horrific spider-like predators. I wasn't paying attention and overshot a cliff while jetpacking, fell, took damage, looked up and was being swarmed by three of the little fuckers. I couldn't nuke the area with grenades fast enough.

That is something at least.

Oh man I haven't come into anything spider-like yet, thank goodness. I'm starting to run into planets with a little more life in cave networks-- most of it not friendly-- so now I'm going to be on the lookout for spiders too. Sweet.

Same here, Korvax. Different systems produce different races, then?

Do you know what would extend the life of this game (for me atleast)?
Let me build settlements on planets for other players to find. Maybe even donating items in my inventory as things for them to find.
Holy shit... I'd be at this too long then.

I got one crash after the patch but then restarted the console and everything was pretty smooth since then. I didn't plan to play at all today, just loaded it up to see if anything obvious changed in the patch. Ended up visiting 5 planets and did 4 more jumps.
Seriously, can anyone explain this? I point at the centre in free look, travel in a linear line towards the centre, pick a system about 1,600ly away, then find out I'm not actually 1,600ly closer.
What's happening here?
Also the 'trip to the centre' grind is insane either way.
Finally upgraded from a 12 slot multitool to an 18 one. Once you craft Grenade Impact Theta every animal and sentinel in the game is just pure toast.

I imagine different regions of space are carved out as "Korvax territory", "Gek territory", etc... until you start moving jumping further inward, where those territories overlap? Given the lore I've been getting for Korvax monoliths,
I wouldn't be surprised to run across some Gek soon though, seeing as how they invaded and enslaved the Korvax in the past.
