Can the Mech be deployed there? If so, they’re unmatched in taking out biological horrors, and they have cold protection to boot.
As a middle-class star citizen that 5 million hurt, especially since I wasn’t able to recoup the cost due to my rookie mistakes on the derelict! And the price doubles with each purchase so back to the grind, I suppose!

Can anyone comment yet on the combat improvement part of the update? Any impressions?
Haven’t done anything scientific but they feel more lethal. Reloading is also much swifter, lighter on animation. Also more accurate (boltcaster, anyway) and no more ricochet nonsense. Just feels “tighter” all around.
WTH? Doubles with each purchase? Like, 5-10-20-40? That’s cray cray, as the kids say these days. It’s that correct?
Okay, did my first Derelict. It was fun, but movement seemed slow. Space Cockroaches were annoying. I turned the items I found over to the Scrap Dealer, and got Nanites, which was good, as I had all of 11 going in- after all was said and done, I had 2300+. Gotta find a better multitool I can spec for combat…
Oh and back at the scrap Dealer, my next Derelict is still 5 million- the price didn’t go up. Perhaps because I bought that one yesterday, and it resets?
Oh, hey! I just found out you can get a free Derelict ticket from one of the dudes at the Anomaly that gives you Nanites. I think maybe one per week?
Hint:
Keep all the slime you’re picking up in the derelict missions. Refine it twice to turn it into nanites.
Apparently you can blast asteroids to get anomaly detectors and use those to find the derelicts. Saves having to pay 5 million credits to get the location otherwise and you can make a good profit. You do have to spend time with asteroids and hope for good RNG.
If they take this type of thing and make “dungeons” or “ruins” on the planet surfaces, that would be mega awesome and be a great end game addition.
Anybody think we will still get a large DLC this year. I would gladly pay for one at this point if it really expanded on the gameplay loop.
Those Anomaly detectors detect all sorts of anomalies, so you’re still somewhat at the mercy of the RNG. But now I think about it, it might help you get parts for your living ship, so that would be cool.
I’d like to see more in this vein - as you say, alien ruins, abandoned (or not!) installations, etc.
As for another ‘big’ expansion? Where could they take it? Multi-crew ships would be neat.
Absolutely. A ship you could walk around in and then dock in your freighter. Probably asking for too much. But if I had my preference it would be:
Lore Expansion and more intelligent creatures to interact with besides the 3. Replace sentinels with something better. They get really boring after a while.
Space Combat Revamp
Biome Diversity
Proc Gen Dungeons/Temples/Etc
Additional methods that don’t cost anything other than time is great. But still, there’s only 1 derelict per system so still gonna have to do some jumping around.
Definitely would like to see more of these “dungeons” on planets perhaps generated normally as any other POI but just super rare.
So you can’t have more than one game going at a time? I see no option for “create new game”.
I’m playing on Gamepass so have no idea where the save file might be.
Yeah you can, when you choose ‘play’ it should go to the ‘select save game’ screen which shows a bunch of save slots that have ‘new game’ in them.
Nothing seems to happen when I select those; just go to a new screen and sit there - or am i being impatient and it takes a while?
I can move the cursor around and right-click back to the save menu but that’s all that seems to be going on.
Ah yeah is it like this thread?
Seems to be a resolution issue with the start new game screen…
yes that’s exactly the problem - am on 21:9. Will see if changing the resolution works - thanks!
Changing the resolution re-enabled the new game options - weird.
Again, thanks!
Who put System Shock in my No Man’s Sky? At the end of the trailer I expected to hear Shodan cackling at my “meat” self :)
That said, what I’d like to see is a hostile race of aliens (I don’t believe there are any in the game yet, but maybe I am wrong). They’d be like raiders in space, making space travel and exploration more dangerous. Maybe there would be certain systems/regions that they inhabited, controlled or patrolled (so people would have a choice if they prefer a more chill experience). You could have combat between fighters, capital ships, even have boarding of your ship (you’d need to build internal defenses or have marines) and you could board raider ships. Maybe you could receive missions to do this from the other alien races in NMS. Once you pacifiied space, then maybe there would be away missions to land and attack/capture bases on moons/planets. In other words, add a warfare module to the game.

I really don’t understand how Hello Games can continue updating this game, and releasing updates the size of these. Where do they get the income? They are a sizeable team from all I’ve seen - And while I know some games have long tails in selling, this just seems ridiculous. The game was out 4 YEARS AGO! Well, next month, it was 4 years.
I’ve never seen anything like this before.
