No Man's Sky

Re: No Man's Sky

the atlas path just ends on the system I'm currently in. when I "search for discoveries" it just pulses systems discovered by other people and my home system doesn't pulse from what I can see. It's like it disappeared. I'm only on my 2nd system, so it shouldn't be too far from where I'm currently at.

Re: No Man's Sky

Yeah, it is driving me nuts. Not a bird, found that. Planet has not water, just squishy mud sounding patches I can't dig through.

I may check the caves more, otherwise I am stumped. I will give myself an hour a well, after dinner, lol.

I'm going through the same thing. 1 species left and I can't find it anywhere. Also, just a tip, I did find 2 different species of birds on my planet, so I wouldn't assume that 1 bird species is the only one.

This is what I ran into also. I wanted to go back to my 1st system and it wasn't any of the systems that I can actually jump to according to the game. I never renamed mine, but I obviously have the name listed in my upload menu.

Frustrating to not be able to go back, so now I'm trying to get everything done in a system before I move on.

Re: No Man's Sky

I wanted to go back to my home system, but I can't find it. It's in my list of discovered systems, but can not find it on the star map. I wish they had a way to search for a system, or a list of systems you discovered(that can be used on the star map).

Is this what you're talking about?

If you press the up arrow key on the dpad (lower left hand corner) it's suppose to scan your discoveries. I think the red-line are the planets I've discovered. Just went 3 hours when I said just 30 minutes. LOL.....Incredible..

I'm on PC, it's Tab, but it does nothing.

when i use the controller and do that, it just pulses distance stars that other people have discovered.

Re: No Man's Sky

Thinking about doing a book/journal of this is the other dynasty section haha.

I have so many ideas and am writing them down for a story that could be easily done with this game. Probably have 7 pages done on Microsoft Word already.

I will definitely look again in the skies.

Re: No Man's Sky

For those missing a species, I witnessed today a little animal run into some pink grass on the desert planet I found. I tried to analyze him but he was moving and could only see a red dot, after a minute he/red dot disappeared... maybe I'll see another one?

Is 100% completion based on finding just all the animals on planet , and does each planet have different amounts of animals or is it ten always (been ten on my two planets).

I've played more warmed up a little to game and taken it what it is and is not. I'd still give a 7, just feel like as vast as it is which is a plus, overall all things considered it resembles something that would have been great on PS3.

It's not always 10, it varies, and the money you get varies as well.

It's not really all the animals, there can be sub species that you discover and you can still name those and upload, but they don't count towards the 100%. What I do is not try to just search, I fly from point of interest to point of interest and just scan around those in a circle looking for red dots or movement over a ridge to check out. Focusing in on the creature will drive you crazy.

Re: No Man's Sky

Found something worse than searching for that last species on a planet: waiting in the space station for an ideal ship to buy. It's either the 21mm beast or garbage that's not even an improvement. So I guess I am mining the piss out of this system to get 7mm more units and buying the beast, hopefully one of these planets is rich. If they are all duds I can always move on to the next system, but my goal tomorrow is mine like mad and buy a good ship.

Re: No Man's Sky

So I'm getting a lot of freezing (CE error) in my time with the game. Is that a common occurrence thus far?

Re: No Man's Sky

For me it is. I've also found that if you do get one, it's best to restart your PS4 or it will have a higher chance of happening again.

Ultimately, though, the game saves so often that it's not too bad of an annoyance, I don't lose much of anything really.

Re: No Man's Sky

Yeah I restarted my ps4 too 3 errors in an hour

Re: No Man's Sky

I love this game, time just flies back. Finally warped out of my first system. I'm playing a much slower pace but really been exploring my planets, got 2 at 100% so far. My current planet is an Earth like planet but about 70% water. Has 14 animals and I've found 11. Also has my warp drive fuel blue prints on it, but where I landed, I was a 15 min flight from it, so been taking my time finding things. Found a giant spider..yeah...no.

Thanks for the tip. I will do that, and also figured out the green/red dot thing the other day too.

I was going to actually ask if I should/could be flying from waypoint to waypoint instead of walking everywehwere. 30 suit slots, 18 slot multitool later, and I never flew my fully fueled and repaired ship once, lol. I was afraid it would auto launch me to space the first time. I would just call it to waypoints as I moved on from other areas of the starting planet.



Can you land them anywhere on the planet? Does not have to be at a waypoint correct?

The first 2 nights I played 6 hours each (time flies big time in this). The last time I played a game where I would be so absorbed and time flew was Star Wars Galaxies MMO, and Diablo 2 before that...

But on my original point, there were no errors. Played again the 3rd night, got the hard lock 1 hour in, then reset my PS4, it did the whole error check, etc.. It happened again about 2-3 hours later, but that time I let it sit and do it's own thing for the error message, then relaunched the game.

Usually doing a 'Rebuild Database' clears this up, so I did that and have not had it since, but again, it could all be sporadic and just placebo. But doing a rebuild every so often with how much this type of game fetches for files/maths would not hurt until they patch the issue.
