Almost every single person I know that went in blind for No Mans' Sky seems to be enjoying and having fun with the game. Good stuff.

There are specific terminals that let you call your ship at the cost of a bypass chip, not every location has one, though.
See below!
Yea, either find one of these:
OR if you locate a trade post, you can use the landing pad terminal to call your ship. Both require 1 chip which you can easily craft.

You'll have to be at a location with a landing pad and/or one of those beacon thingy's (forget it's name) in order to call your ship to your current location.

Only at places with landing pads.
I hear you. I was hoping for procedurally generated ruins to explore. The same handful of buildings being stamped all over every planet is probably the biggest disappointment for me personally.
That and all the crap floating in space. They should have done away with the pulse engine fuel requirements and made asteroid fields that you could explore and mine. Having floating asteroids everywhere is just a lame solution to a problem that doesn't need to exist.

Incredibly in depth. It's a lot of the smaller things missing that bother me, like desert and ringed planets, ship classes, and crafting without formulas. I think the UI looked way better in those earlier previews, too.
In the midst of the constant hating/bitching, there are quite a few of us who actually seem to be enjoying the game ya? At least dozens!
This game has ended up in the internet hate echochamber which is going to keep a lot of people from seeing its positives. It's really frustrating for me to see because while I do think there's flaws, it's not the steaming pile of garbage some people are making it out to be.
I found a very similar one during one my streams. It had literally nothing on it. It made me think of Mars, minus the red coloring. It was kind of depressing. It actually might have been one of the moons on the planet. I can't remember which of my streams it is (I'm up to 8 parts, with each part being a minimum of an hour and 30 minutes (some of them are 3 hours and over), and I'm not going to hunt through all of that footage!

I mean you CAN play it that way if you can maintain your shields through fast inventory management. But there's also nothing saying you can't chase down your pursuers, avoid fire and keep hounding enemies so you're not just a sitting target. Having the Photonix Upgrade doesn't hurt either.
It won't pass. It doesn't pass. It will take the vague form and cadence of a sinusoidal waveform, varying in intensity, amplitude with the news of the day.
But it will not stop. This is the way of things.

Thanks for all the tips on finding crashed ships.
Looks like I'll be visiting some terminals tonight.
Cheers.

find Gek Transmission tower, one of those has infinite uses. I cant remember who mentioned it in here.

This really hurt me. How can they (Sony and Hello Games) be so dishonest? If they were transparent about all this stuff...
Man, this sucks. You can't trust ANYONE these days.

Remember to break down your previous ship upgrades and move all the mats over to the new one for easy fixing.
Get iron, heredium too.
man, reading this pissed me off a little. sure i'm having fun with the game we got, but this actually is a Spore situation as much as i hate to admit it. this game is not the game we were presented.
Tell me more about Gek TT infinite usage. Like I keep feeding it bypass chips and it'll keep finding stuff nonstop?
You might be better off just reposting your guides in the new thread.

This post followed coincidently by NullPointer posting is too good.
I honestly don't know what to make of it
yeah, I was hoping I could just make one posts with links to all of them, and then if the OP wanted to include that list, it would be way simpler and they'd stay updated. but I will save them I guess.
Inside the TT where you go to find a location marker for a crashed ship. You can use it an unlimited amount of times if you are in a gek star system. Will add TONS of crashed ship markers.
She is near perfection!

Will do. I definitely forgot to do that last time.
Lately I've made it a point to have one full stack of Iron, Carbon, Zinc, Titanium, Heridium , and two stacks of Plutonium on me at all times. Different stacks on the ship for it's particular needs (Thamium9, etc.).
As I start to find new elements I do the same - keep one stack in the exo, and any additional stacks go to the ship for selling purposes.
Its helped keep things organize for crafting and selling resources.
So did I somehow screw myself? Warped into my second system, but didn't realize -- at the time -- I had to blow the doors off manufacturing facilities and that sort of thing. So I haven't been able to find an antimatter recipe. Since I realized my mistake, I've hit probably 15-20 manufacturing facilities across three planets in that system and have picked up many recipes except the one I need. I've even gotten double recipes a few times. So do I have to somehow return to the first planet I landed on and find the manufacturing facility there? I'd hate to have to restart after probably 30-40 hours invested already.
Oh shi, I'm already maxed out at 48 on an explorer ship with almost the same exact layout/upgrades as yours lol but I might go find a better looking ship; maybe one of them cool fighter looking ones like I had previously. Good tip, thanks.

So what are all the ways to get hyper drive upgrades? I know of aliens giving them to you but is there a way to outright buy them?
Got the THETA warp blueprint today, only 2hrs after i crafted the TAU...will blast away to the center asap before i begin to save up to a bigger ship...To invested in my 14 slot second ship.
Also if i choose "free exploration" in the galaxy map, i can go further than following the "to the center" path.
Longing for a new galaxy. The Euclid doesnt do it for me

Every time I turn on my PS4 and play No Man's Sky, it turns out every planet I "discovered" in the previous play session was actually discovered by another player well before I got there, and as I'm following the Atlas path I expect this will continue to be the case for a long time.
I wish the online connection wasn't so rare that it essentially only connects in the first minute I start the game before ceasing to work again entirely.

RE: That reddit list..
The complaint about swarms of sentinels not reflecting what's currently in the game.. what response to you get at 5 stars like the video shows? I've only gotten it to 3 (although attacking the space station results in 5 and a swarm of spaceships)
Does it stay the same sentinels or do the AT-ST types come out a 5?

I have nothing to add here, I just thought it was really amusing that Hawkian's post had a Doctor Manhattan panel, and your comment with that avatar was right after his. Just tickled me for some reason.

The whole simulating a solar system is my biggest negative about the game. Sucks that planets and moons don't actually have an orbit
They used to until QA people started getting confused and disorientated so they took it out the game.

I can handle 6 or so for now with +1 deflectors and extra cooling on phase beam.
Hope this part of the game gets fleshed out some more.

Quoting this for a new page because it got lost in the drama posts. Specifically, could someone answer when Sentinel ships engage? I was surprised that attacking pirates gave me a wanted level.
On an unrelated note, I found a large ruins structure last night, larger than I'd ever seen. It had a statue of an alien head, and a weird metal ball that could be rolled around. No idea if the ball had any gameplay purpose or just decoration. Anyone seen one like that?
You do realize that planet rotation is different than their orbit around their star? Regardless, Sean only said he reduced rotation rate, but in fact they don't seem to rotate at all anymore, and the day/night cycle is just simulated on the ground.

That happened to me as well. I hit the merchant ships by mistake while attacking the pirates.
Hell the freighters were firing at me along with the pirates at a point.
Ungrateful snots.

Someone beat me to compiling a list of features cut from the game. I've watched every video, read every interview since the game's announcement and even I forgot some of those things. It's a damning list and should be commented on by Hello Games.

i realized that out of the 10 crashed ships i scanned and found ... they were all almost identical. maybe 2 different looking ships... but they all had about the same inventory slots.
