This game has evolved so much.
Yeah it really has
something that we don't know?
@@asapas8alright alright keep your hair on
They actually have been adding new food recipes to the game with quite a few different updates. Basically, whenever they add a new item, they add a small number of recipes to go with it. But it's typically only about 5-10 new recipes per update.
Ah! Thank you for that insight!
'only'
That’s it, we need the ability to open an alien restaurant by placing blocks to define a counter and line then have to cook and serve food to the customers
@@jacobpinson2834 cook, interloper, delicious!
@@jacobpinson2834 i wanted something like this on space stations, some of them have a bar in the back, it would be cool to serve drinks and food, or even buy food from there, it could be dependent on race and what they systems plants have to offer
I just started playing NMS in December and was really disappointed that I couldn't access past expedition quicksilver items. I really hope this new terminal will let us new players complete the old expeditions.
I completely agree! There are some folks who will say “oh, but there’s Redux expeditions!” In my opinion, while redux expeditions are cool if you’re lucky enough to catch them in their extremely small time frames, they just don’t have any longevity. With the increasing number of expeditions dropping every few months, the strategy of only including the most recent expeditions plus one from a while back just doesn’t fit their (and the gaming industry in general) plan of growing the player base with each new update, only causing more and more people to feel annoyed that they missed out on even the simplest of rewards.
If you play on PC there’s a way to mod an old expedition into your game
We usually get 3-4 expeditions per year and at the end of the year there's a rerun of a few previous expeditions.
If you're on PC, you can easily get the items through save editing.
A way of balancing having access to all of the expeditions at all times could be making it so you have to either do them in order or you have to purchase them by using ingredients that relate to that expedition.
Agreed. I play on switch with mobile hotspot due to lack of internet access and Switch never even had access to the old Expeditions until i think Expedition 9 or 10? No one on switch had an opportunity to get the Normandy ship from the Mass Effect crossover that killed me
Recipes - Nightmare sausage and Gelatenous Membrane, Syrupy Viscera both added in one of the recent expeditions (Fractal). Crafting them was one of the phase requirements.
its honestly very unusual for HG to give a test run of a new update/expedition. i wonder if this is gonna be the norm from now on and if communication is gonna change. they just continue to surprise us
It's probably to test the save transfer feature. I could see that causing some bugs, so it makes sense to launch a beta for it.
I'm hoping that some time they will add gunfights with NPC aliens.
Maybe repel pirates boarding your freighter = ) . . .or board one of theirs!
Omega I think would closer mean the end of expeditions if it’s the end of anything.
Hopefully the new update will be coming any week (or day🤞🏻) now
It looks like its to catch any last bugs before they introduce carrying an existing character into a new expedition, so it shouldnt be too long before it reaches us. Experimental Expedition is set to end on monday or tuesday, can't recall. Assuming they dont come across any gamebreak earth shattering bugs they werent expecting with the new system, the public branch should be updated more or less as the experimental expedition ends. I got no plans Valentines day so a hot date with my space game is what I'm at least hoping for XD Anythign after that and I might have to grab my pitchfork and start calling them out XD
13:50 Ha, I may or may not have brought up the idea of “abyss-themed rewards” in the live stream, but I won’t go ahead and take the credit. But besides that, I absolutely adore the themed rewards that we get, as they are unique ways to develop a story and theming for an expedition that may not have one, for example, the rewards of the Leviathan expedition, which were all living-frigate themed. On the opposite side of the spectrum there’s the expeditions with poorly-developed reward themes, like in Exobiology. Those rewards, the wingpack, jet trail, and quad robot thing all felt very loosely connected. Just my thoughts haha.
You're right! We did discuss it during the live stream. Thanks again for tuning again. And yeah, I LOVE when the rewards of an expedition correlate directly to the theme and story of it. Exobiology still bothers me particularly. It should have been a sentinel expedition! Thanks for commenting.
my hope is that NMS ends up as Terraria, where Red keeps calling the latest update the "for real last update" and then they release another big update and so on.
It's almost overwhelming the amount of stuff that people have been finding in this experimental.. huge new stuff, overhauls to really old stuff, and even changes to little things like NPCs having dialogue when you shoot them based on your reputation and language, new icons, even something as simple as starships now having their screens animate when you're taking off. It's almost hard to believe we could get all of these things in the first update of the year.
Makes me almost think the space stations won't be included just so we're not overwhelmed but it'd be weird to show off a new ship and space station and then not include both in the same update lol.
People have also pointed out how the Autophage came back from the dead so maybe Artemis could come back as well, especially now that the Atlas Path got expanded! I don't think I've been this excited for an update before!
Btw I believe Fractal was the most recent update where new food items were added for the baby worms.
You know what! I even made a video specifically covering the fact that worm recipes were added to the game. lol I can't believe I blanked on that. Well, that's what I get for recording without a script. Thanks for pointing that out.
And yeah, I don't know if we should expect the space stations in this update or not. There seems to be enough to satiate folks without them, especially if there's more in the final release than the experimental patch. I almost feel like the new space stations would be too much at this point. Like Sean said, if you put too many cool features in a single update, people will inevitably miss some.
Thanks for watching and for your insight!
If only if they add living freighters in the game. I mean we got the living ships and frigates, but no living freighters.
I love your videos - mostly for your combination of level headedness (not over hyped) and enthusiasm. Fun and informative. Thanks!
I feel like the atlas is getting ready to reset once again, because from what I remember it always does before the atlantid can do anything after it makes a new body
I wonder if this expedition is setting up a story for Light no Fire.
they are not related I don't think@@TheDalisama
Thanks for the sneak peek into the expedition.
I really hope it isn’t like 80% expedition and 20% actual game changes/additives.
Settlement charts are already on sale by the cartographers in all space stations, it is not something new. However in the normal game they actually work and point you towards a planetary settlement that you can take up as overseer, not to ruins. It must be bugged there if it led you to a ruin.
I apologize for the lack of clarity; I was actually referring to the Artifact Charts. Thanks for commenting though!
The nex starship is interesting, but I can't help but wonder about a possible future procedural ship class. Last year we got the Utopia Speeder, and just looking at it when one pulls into the Soace Anomaly, it uses a LOT of assets from the Sentinek shils in the next update. Now I wonder if this summer we'll be getting a new ship class utilizing some of the Starbourne Runner's design
corrupted sentinels 100% got an update they were rapid firing guns shooting bombardments and using flamethrowers on me AND they were healing each other
They were always like that.
@@nametest2558 idk man i have gameplay from before and it’s not the same 💀
@@Rai.Rai22 No they were always like that
Space races would be cool. If they use a checkpoint system where you gotta fly through hoops, they could do time trials and have encounterable npcs that challenge you. You can wager nanites, or materials. It would work well with the safety override upgrade that allows you to basically drift
And of course if you pulse or warp away you get a bounty on your head for skipping out on your wager
I've always felt that that nms missed on keeping Expedition exclusive content...it kinda closes the game to new players In the worst way ..now this whole idea about replayable content is sooo cool I can't wait
If it is indeed a time trial, then I'd bet they're also changing the beginning of the game slightly. Maybe give access to the anomaly earlier and make every past and present expedition available at the new kiosk,
I think Artifacts were part of the "Alien Structures" map before. At the very least, the icon is definitely new.
That seems to the be the case. I'm hoping they're updating loot to coincide with the new maps! Still cool either way. Thanks for watching!
Intro was funny my guy, I just found your channel, and I just got back to NMS after a year break. Let's do this! If I like your video, I'll sub 😮
There was a different freighter layout long ago. The stairs were in the middle of the hanger. They removed the second version when they added the ability to own a freighter. So it didn't even last a year.
I wait until it is out! Good to have your knowledge you are the go to NMS expert! Thank you Sir!
I kept finding bases built by players blocking the new expedition progress. They had somehow hidden the base computers so could.not be reported and were preventing any digging of the ground. For example, I could.not access the crashed freighter pods because of this obnoxious base playment. How about Hello Games prevents base placement on expedition pbjectives it seems an obvious thing to do as it wrecks the game for everybody.
This has been a problem from the first expedition. If you report the base from the computer you can proceed.
I wish NMS would have an option for Co-Op only, because the public multiplayer expenditions and weekend missions are always full of troll bases and message stations. I
Something i really wished the devs would add. Is a system where you could build/customize your own ship. Like you could break down ships you already have, and take different parts of it, and design it to your likening. Different cockpits, wings, trusters ect. And insted of just having them decorative, add stats to them so they have an extra ump behind it. Like some fuselages could hold extra cargo, while others are more heavly armored/ faster or more health, or got less cargo space and so on. Same goes for trusters. Some are faster but got worse turn radius, other slower but got way faster turn radious.
And at the same time you could perhaps finaly get to paint your ship in your favourite colours, instead of looking for 2000h after just the right ship design and right colour.
But unfortunatly, unless more people start asking for it, we most likely aint ever gonna see somthing like that.
#CustomShipsForNMS
I like that you can transfer stuff to the expedition, will make my playstyle of starting a new game everytime more usable since I can go from expidetion save to normal then throw important stuff in a box and keep going with updates
The name of the update is interesting. Sean tweeted out the omega symbol in lieu of an emoji this time around, so I think its very likely that either the expedition or update will have that name. The next update is supposedly the fourth and final part of the Autophage story, and since the Autophages use greek letters in their language so Omega really makes sense. What's weird though, in the language files of the experimental update, the expedition is apparently supposed to be called 'Starseed' and back during the Game Awards, we got that teaser trailer for an update called 'Evolution' that would have the new stations and the new ship (and also showed a pirate dreadnaught). I have to wonder if HG just decided to rename the expedition, rename the update, or if Evolution is a different update coming later (the new station models still didn't get re-added in experimental).
I checked the update log and OH BOY THE GOT SOME GOODIES
Between this and that new game “Pacific Drive” (survival driving game where your companion is your old beat up car!) coming out, I’ve got a lot to do again lol.
Yayyy
16 16 16 16... Omega is coming!
Imagine adding voids between planets that could be traversable and hold very dark big structures that are ancient...
I hope this is the precursor to playing expeditions whenever you want. Never been a fan of the FOMO. Especially when I have other games to play.
Exactly. Not to mention that I don’t keep track of this game on a regular basis. I come back every few months or sometimes a whole year. And I’ve played boy partake in one expedition so far cause I’ve missed the rest.
It just sucks ass cause the rewards are extremely cool. All I’ve got was the leviathan fraget ship. Wich is a pretty awesome ship but I would have liked some of those other rewards.
@@Manie230 to be fair, the Leviathan isn't exactly unique. It's the same as any other living frigate, it's really just an extra free S class frigate. You're not missing much.
@@Lordoftheapes79 I mean it’s a good boost if you just got a freighter. But it’s true it isn’t super over powered.
But it’s also the only reward I have so it holds some special place for me at least :]
@@Manie230 ah, sorry I misread that, I thought you said you wanted it. I didn't mean to take the piss out of you. But it's still true for most of the rewards. They're pretty much just cosmetic, you don't lose out on anything fundamental.
As far as cooking is concerned I'd love to have a backpack nutrient processor like we have the backpack refiner. I think it would make cooking a lot more accessible and appealing. Instead of waiting around for minutes I can just explore around and come back to whatever recipe I was working on. There's an NPC at the anomaly who rewards nanites for cooking, but that's about the only reason to do it aside from selling them outright. An expansion to the importance of cooking would be cool but I don't want a hunger bar for our character or anything like that
An interesting idea! Perhaps this could be a part of a “Personal Refiner Mk III,” (which would also have three refiner slots) or something. Dunno, but cooking is definitely an underutilized mechanic.
Yeah, portable cooking device sounds more realistic than portable refiner which can utilise almost whole Mendeleev's table.
Hmmm... might be time to dive in to this again. Havant done a full playthrough in some time. Just been banging then hanging the expeditions. With the new way of doing expeditions inside a current game..... One can now finally go out and find that perfect spot, and build a permanent base for a permanent character.
I did a bug with singularity now I have both, Crimson AND atlanted to do this: make a save then go claim one reload and get the other then after that you can get both, AND also I wish they made a NMS official cook book (which it would be long)
I have no intention of ever using this expedition save sharing thing but im sure a lot of people will like it.
I want a way to return to watpoints without setting up a base, something like a Points Of Interest tab in our wonders or something so we can drop pins at cool locations and give them a title and be able to find that spot again.
Thanks for the video! The question is - what will happen to that save after you finish the expedition? Will they give back all of the items and technologies back to you, or you'll end up only with the stuff you've collected throughout the expedition?
They’ll probably merge your inventory with your regular one. Or put the stuff you have found in some kind of lost and found storage where you can grab it and put it into your base.
Or they only let you keep specific things or you need to select a few items you would like to keep.
@@Manie230 I wonder how that would work. Like - which freighter would I keep? And if my starship amount is full what happens? Too many questions that need answering.
24:54 End of support would be a double edged sword. On one side: The game feels a bit outdated and in certain elements, i can feel that it's an old 3D engine running at it's limits. On the other side: HG would certainly receive some backlash and many people which just began playing would be disappointed.
It will need to stop one day…
@@yorgosprotogeros3541probably when their new game comes out.
Or when they start working on „no mans sky two electric boogaloo“.
thats good, i never played expeditions because i have only one survival save that i always play on. im no youtuber so im not playing for thousand hours meaning i have plenty stuff to do on my single save.
It would be good if this Omega is the final drop. Then we might get a stable release
12 expeditions, times 4 weeks = 1 year. I'm not saying that there won't be more than 12 Expeditions, BUT, if they wanted to, they could stop at 12 and setup a year-round monthly cycle. Unlikely. I'm just doing basic math. I don't necessarily believe my own theory.
Sean just tweeted an emoji^^
Wait I can’t play the game yet, will there be any way to get the rewards after the expedition ends?
I dont understand the optional milestones scanning the rendezvous planets. Even if I scan everything it still says only 14% progress.
Community progress. Like the quicksilver companion progress
I wonder when the updates will be on Nintendo switch, and if we will also be able to get a pirate freighter.
So I lost my old save. 😅 I'll have to build a new base if we're to remain neighbors. 😅
Hey....so I've been playing this game for years I jumped around too much and I started the Artemis mission and never did it and then jumped around through black holes...it's been a long time I've traveled tens of thousands of lys, basically I'm lost in space and have no portal access
This new omega terminal makes me think expeditions are in the sub simulation...
I am finding that the trip to the 2nd rendezvous is broken. I have warped at least 6 times.
I hope Omega does not mean it's the end for NMS!?
what are the atleast seeds for I can't figure it out
Bro where did you get that helmet from the intro??? Somebody please tell me
It's in the quick silver shop you have to do daily missions to get it
@@rickyhaywood9911 is this only for pc or is this for PlayStation as well?
why cant i find the kiosk behind the nexus? im on ps5
still cant access any expeditions on steam or PS4, AND HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR YEARS
i hope they make the atlas helment obtainable in the update
It's one of the rewards for the upcoming Expedition.
i just want it not tied to an expedition@@Odvinsko
They need to fix the terrible memory leak problems on Xbox Series X. It's unacceptable at this point
I doubt this is the last expedition. IMO, 16 or 19 would be the perfect numbers to end on. It just makes too much sense, lore wise.
No matter how many updates they release the game stays as deep as a puddle🤷♂️
I like playing in this puddle.
oh???
can this expedition be played on ps5?
It can today!
Why would Omega mean "ending"
God its night and day with this game and others. I play Destiny 2 and the morale is just so low. We lost a fuck ton of devs right before holidays. We're in the longest season of our last expansion. Corporate Bungie is basically ruining the game. Then you come to No Mans Sky. And its fucking so different
It is really sad to see what's been happening with Bungie and Destiny 2. There was a short period of time where I loved to play, but then they started vaulting content that I had unlocked before I could complete it. It really killed my appetite for the game. No Man's Sky has been improving since 2016 and pretty consistent since 2020. It's a great time to be a NMS fan!
Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@Kanaju it really is. Currently I cant really suggest getting into it. The full story is on sale on humble bundle thankfully. But they arent sunsetting (content vaulting) anything else aside from the seasonal stories, which they always do when the next expansion launches. Currently we're in the final and longest season of Lightfall. Our next expansion is final shape and its looking to be very good honestly. Its still difficult to really recommend the game without having a Virgil to light ones path through the darkness of ignorance. Because Bungie itself hasnt done great at being that guide through the continued story of Destiny and the small nuances and changes that have led to where we are now. If you wanted to get back into it, the devs are really trying to fix it and this is probably the best time to start with every expansion being on sale. And thank you for making these videos. You have been a great help in getting me to understand and enjoy No Mans Sky and figure out the game. Im about to go watch your patch notes video for the Omega update actually on that note.
I'd love to play this but won't! I stopped playing when I lost every Twitch & Expedition item I earned in game! No matter what I do from deleting game, reinstalling game, & clear saves I no longer have them on any character I have! Make new character & nothing! Which is sad because I love NMS! Hello Games can't & won't help me! They said after I did the things, I said earlier that they could not help me if those didn't work! I wish I knew how to get all the things I have lost because I would come back!
The expedition is so easy why would anyone need to bring all those items just to make it really boring?
I have a Feeling that this is going to be the last update because it is named omega and Omega is the letter in the greek alphabet
If to do expeditions from a main save, HG ought to have had to do much better job. In my opinion most of expeditions up to now many steps have been lazy job, along forcing to start from scratch. Not all like repetitive grinding that are wasted when the expedition is over, or do speedruns. Similar to many Nexus missions and such, things done often several times. The terminal is progress, along agree it ought to offer all older expeditions and maybe regular smaller new ones.
I am on Xbox. Today, I came face to face with a Pirate Dreadnought. I had no idea what it was & I couldn't shoot any of the pirates fighters. I fled to the space station that turned out to bet a pirate camp. I am confused.
There's still no multi player. Any ideas what's going on?
What is this expedition even about, it seems to have no point or thread holding it together content wise just a lot of random things to do.
Nothing new about the chart to a ruin.
It's a new item that didn't used to exist, but the ruin it points to is still the same.
Makes me wonder if they changed ruins in the upcoming update because otherwise it'd be a weird inclusion to have a new chart for it.
Fantasy has left No Man s Sky. Starships from 1970. Masks and staff of Anubis of ancient Egypt. This is a catastrophe.
I dislike the expedition as everyone gets the same thing there is nothing unique at all about them.
To me this expedition is disappointing and feels like playing a tutorial. Very easy and quite boring.
Don't like that new ship, quite ugly and boxy.
I am sorry to have to say this, but you have lost my ideal of professionalism.
Those of us that can't get on the Experimental branch now have lost our enjoyment of the new release because you and other creators have taken it upon yourselves to destroy any surprise that we could have enjoyed. That is too bad...
Just don't watch the video lmao
Just don't watch the videos. No-one is forcing you to watch them. The expedition will be dropping on all platforms soon. The only thing the thumbnail has spoiled is a helmet.
I'm sorry to hear that. The experimental branch and its patch notes are released publicly by Hello Games for public consumption. I refrained from speaking on the interesting story elements I encountered during my playthrough. I limited my footage of the new ship to what we've already seen from the official trailer. I mention features that have been discovered in the new patch, but I don't show footage or screenshots of any of them except for the new stuff in the anomaly. Considering this content has been released publicly (as I'm able to play it without mods), I think it's a fair subject to cover. I do give a spoiler warning in the first two minutes before I discuss anything in detail as well. Even if you watched all 35 minutes of this video, I'm sure there would still be surprises when the update hits consoles.
Granted the Thumbnail was a bit of a kick in the nuts; but Kanaju is a down to earth decent dude I'm sure he'll take the criticism on board and of course thumbnails can be changed.
However seeing a helmet variant (is that JK from Jamiroquais robot hat that got stolen?!) is hardly what I'd call destroying a surprise, nor would I consider people streaming an experimental run-through of an expedition ruining it.
Theres plenty more in the expedition, like the actual journey itself (the rewards are just that, rewards) not to mention an entire content update thats coming alongside it (if not soon after, delays permitted). Hello games also mentioned its a variant of the actual Expedition so it sounds to me like any big surprises or secrets have already been scrubbed from the experimental version (rewards aside, which seem intact as intended)
It's easy to just not click in to these things, or knowing what we know of past releases etc, best to just skip youtube and news feeds for a while and quickly skim past anything NMS related.
Very hard to do in a world with ever growing push from the algo of things we like and talk about.
For example I wanted to go see How Do You Live/Boy and Heron without knowing anything about it. Having the film be named Boy and Heron was already telling me too much. THen US distro opened the flood gates on promo material. My phone kept pushing it in to my news feed, at several points i actually threw my phone away as I was scrolling cos I saw part of a frame. My point being I totally get it, one little thing can ruin yr anticipation, and maybe we shouldnt have to go to lengths to avoid it like in my example, but I also totally get Kanaju trying to grow an audience and sometimes, ya gotta play the game.
he warned about spoilers, what are you talking about?
I'm not saying you can use refiners stacked on each other to clone useful items and make a storage for the future expedition features before the new update drops and possibly fixes the glitch
Space Stations........???
Don't like that new ship, quite ugly and boxy.
