So I know I asked this before, but my friend is playing, had the opportunity to get Atlas Pass V1, but accidentally passed it up, and has no way to get back to that system.

Spoiler

He happened upon the Anomoly a second time, but they act as if he took

the pass already.


So is he fucked? How can he go about making this happen?


One reply said "It's a drop", but that doesn't really tell me anything at all.

You can still get it from random events such as aliens, or terminals or whatever as far as I understand.

 

[Baalzebup]

I name mine Nostremitus (insert descriptor here)

When I do name things.

See, that seems cool, since you are actually naming shit. But seeing multiple systems named Jonno and landing on a planet Jonno in system Jonno is a bit too much, IMO

Ah I see. Is it pretty rare? At least his case isn't hopeless.

 

[SynthFetish]

Finally got my 48 ship. I'll likely swap it out for one of those dragonfly looking ones eventually. Still having lots of fun, I'm losing track of the hours. Might need to take a day or two off.

I found some big bipedal dinosaurs/lizardmen... with the tiniest little wings keeping them flying in the air.

Burst out laughing.

They're patching the game, PC version out, PS4 should be ready very soon, per Sean's twitter. Gotta grind ships in a Gek system before the patch!

 

[Loudninja]

Even though less than one per cent of players have raised support issues, we're going to resolve roughly 70% of them this week

I went to an Outpost, didn't see a landing pad so I just landed and behold it was hidden underground. If I walked off the landing pad I fell into watery nothingness. I was able to reload and grenade my way out and take off with no problem.

I am 150k way from the center, can jump at 1600 each. So 150k / 1500 to make it more realistic, that's 100 jumps away.. I'll need some more warp cores definitely and more time ofcourse.

I had something like this happen as well, I saved a video clip.

Any patch notes for PC version?

Very curious about this as well, want to update the PC Thread OP....

*edit*

Checked Steam discussions and it seems since the new patch came out people are unable to save their game anymore....

I imagine it's rare just like the level 2 schematic. I've been running around for the level 2 one, and have still not found it. :|

Yikes. Train wreck of the year.

 

[Loudninja]

Patch notes incoming but PC build adds support for more hardware + improves frame rate at low spec. PS4 improves stability + lots more

It's pretty crazy for us how many people are playing. And how large a number even 1% of that user base is.

We're totally focused on customer support right now. Then we'll move onto improving and adding features to the game

[Septimius]

To be fair, that's been a bug already

I WANNA KNOW PS4 PATCH NOTES

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Yikes. Train wreck of the year.

Pretty much. Such a sad state of affairs surround NMS.

 

[Tovarisc]

This patch has been in testing by devs and players for past week or so.

 

[Handy Fake]

Yikes. Train wreck of the year.

From tiny acorns do mighty procedurally generated oak trees grow. Patience, my friend.

 

[Venom Fox]

This patch has been in testing by devs and players for past week or so.

But created a new saving bug. Jesus HG needs to get their own testers.

Edit: Love the game but this has been a very sad state of affairs since the release.

 

[noomi]

Yeah, more threads on reddit being created that people are unable to save their games now.

Apparently you get in/out of your ship and then game freezes.

 

[Apt101]

I am looking forward to that stability update on the PS4. I'd like to get in one good, long session without a crash or lockup. My first few days were fine, after that it became pretty bad.

hope they found a rain planet immediately. disgusting

 

[Zafir]

This patch has been in testing by devs and players for past week or so.

I'm aware, I had the experimental branch installed myself.

I'd assumed they'd added something more to it though, since despite it being in testing, there wasn't that many people reporting of save issues.

 

[Septimius]

I encountered the save bug three times yesterday on PS4. I'm sure there might be separate issues, but it's not necessarily a new bug.

 

[Saint of Killers]

That humping gif just gave me the urge to get back on the game ASAP xD

 

[Lionheart1827]

So question for the extreme survival milestones. I managed to find a extreme sentinel planet, and I've been chilling in a cave for a bit. I read somewhere that going into shelters is also fine. Does this mean ALL buildings(including abandoned buildings, observatories, etc) will work also?

EDIT: Answered my own question through trial and error. Yes all buildings seem to count, just not your ship.

Yes it was a save bug where players could find the game didn't save when it was supposed to. The difference is now is that (a lot of) PC players CANNOT save whatsoever.

Good luck with that!

 

[wowbaggerBR]

I'm not concerned about the bug fixing, it's pretty much their job to mend the game. What I'd like to know is: the ditched, extremely hyped features, will be implemented?

 

[Handy Fake]

I know they're getting daggers at the minute, but the way they're going about fixing issues is very encouraging. I'm still ridiculously optimistic about where the game is going, and I love it at the minute as it is.

is this steam specific though? a few posters have said that they haven't encountered the save bug in the GOG version of the game...

So they're saying I need to file a ticket with my multiple crash issues in order to be counted? Sigh.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Does anybody else want a sort of console command enabler? I was enamored with my first 4 or 5 hours in game and that slowly wore off because i could give two shits about "survival resource management" games.

I'd LOVE console commands to be able to do whatever i want with my inventory and supplies and just explore until my heart's content. "spawn item Iridium (500) ship" Boom, Iridium in my ship, upgrade built 0 fucks wasted.

I could just cruise in my ship and take in the sights from time to time without having to worry about the inventory at all. Would be real nice... well, for me anyway. I know some love spending most of their time in the inventory with the management meta.

 

[Venom Fox]

This is what I'm thinking. All the reports I've read have come from Steam users and none currently coming from GOG users. Maybe the patch has conflicting code with the Steam save file system? God knows but it's looking likely it's an issue with the patch and Steam.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

Considering they've sold around 1 million copies, that's still a lot of issues raised.

And not everyone would officially submit a ticket.

I'll know for sure myself later as I have the GOG version of the game and I've not encountered any of the problems the PC users on steam have..

hopefully this will make it even better for me

Yeah the patch has greatly increased performance for the GOG users commenting on here and Reddit etc.

I know they are fixing things, what I want to know is if the game will ever resemble the product shown in trailers.

I'm not being obnoxious about it, just a legitimate question regarding the gap between what was shown and what has been delivered.
