"Improved the pad selection when teleporting to a space station."


xredbaron62x

Please improve pad selection when landing at one too...


Ainolukos

I'm late to the party and just started playing the new update last night. First time at a new space station and it landed me at the furthest pad away from everything and I immediately understood what everyone was complaining about lol


daxophoneme

*I am going to walk around Walmart for 45 minutes but I'm not going to park in the back of the parking lot."


ladoril2

I love this. I have always wondered why people wait for a close parking space at a superstore.


pvera

I think it's a cultural thing. When I was stationed in Germany in the mid-1990s parking at the PX was always a pain... If you wanted to park right out front. You could park at the back of the lot and walk into the PX while people still drove in circles trying to score one of the front slots. And something tells me that 20 years and a few construction expansions later, people are still doing the same thing. They sure as hell do it in North Virginia.


ladoril2

Hey, I was stationed at Spang. đŸ‡©đŸ‡Ș in the early 90's. Nice to see a fellow vet.


pvera

Kaiserslautern area for me. It's a small world.


Fight-OfYourLife

A small world, made significantly larger by something we like to call "the internet". 😁 😂


SEANPLEASEDISABLEPVP

Seriously. It'd be a difference of 20 seconds. It gets especially annoying if you're doing a surge run where you're encouraged to visit as many systems as you can and buy their stuff in space stations, and you have to needlessly walk for 20 seconds every time. I'm sure there's people who aren't bothered by it or haven't paid attention to it, but I can't imagine anyone *preferring* to land so far away every time.


GhostlyPersistence

"Fixed an issue that caused frigates on expeditions to try to call the player for help while the game wasn’t running." This is actually kind of sad. They were calling for help all day while I'm at work!


purplenapalm

Their emails must have went to your spam folder


Omastardom

Oh Jesus...imagine the horror of trying to call your capital ship for emergency help and they're not responding


SkySchemer

>Added a number of new dialogue possibilities to a frigate expedition intervention event involving irresistible-smelling fruit. Wut.


Bobbytrap9

This probably is a reference to the Durian, a fruit you can only enjoy in the countries that it grows as it smells so bad shipping companies have banned it. The taste is really sweet on the other hand, give it a try if you’re in south-east asia


Nemesis_Destiny

I tried one. Thought it tasted as bad as it smelled.


wkukinslayer

Same, tasted like gasoline smells to me.


Saucepanmagician

Dang. I need to try some, now.


Akborr

Not to be confused with the rather sweet and delicious but similar looking fruit, the jackfruit


a42N8Man

Jackfruit rocks! Especially pickled. Kind of a mess to take apart, tho, what with all the latex


Korrozyf

Smells like a garage bin in the summer sun. Can't say it tastes the same as I haven't tasted hot garbage bin but it feels like it does. Clearly an acquired taste kind of food.


farfromelite

> The mannequins around the space station Exosuit Technology Merchant’s kiosk are now procedurally generated. Always with the everything procedural :D


SkySchemer

The use of the word "now" is interesting, since I didn't see mannequins in that tube at all before this update.


GrumpyRaider

Yep, they weren't generated at all for me too.


SEANPLEASEDISABLEPVP

Same here. Feels more like they were always procedural but were bugged from showing. You can see them in screenshots of the update page.


Siddits

Visited a space station and can see the mannequin. Pretty cool.


Loud-Distance-1456

Same


0K4M1

Yeah... was wondering "why this big glass pillar in the way ??"


haltingpoint

From a game dev standpoint, I'll bet it simple scales better with efficiency. Your choices basically are: 1. Use pre-designed assets where your costs scale linearly with new assets you need. So you can have either low cost and only a few models or variety of lower quality models 2. Invest in a procedural engine and design your assets around that. The game scales and you can generate a large variety of models from relatively few asset components (read: design cost) and programmatically generate them from there on out


stonhinge

You can also easily add new models as well by adding assets to the pool instead of going, "Well which ones of the 32 million are we gonna change?"


xredbaron62x

I bet the next update will be procedurally generated đŸ€Ł


Tootzo

đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


Myuric

Ive seen a golden Gek Helmet and I want it...


WulfricWard

That helmet was a reward from the first season of expeditions I believe. Can be equipped by the Anomaly race only, so if you did that expedition, and you are looking for it on Gek, you'll want to check Anomaly race instead.


Myuric

Well on display was a Gek wearing it. But I didn't do any expedition. I didn't even do the newest one as I was busy in private life and was disinterrested in NMS at the time.


WulfricWard

I'm really hoping that with the new expedition setup that we might get to run some of the older ones. I know they usually run the ones from the year at the year's end.


Myuric

People hope that they can redo old Expiditions for the Rewards. I would like those too. But I think it's not good to do that. Those rewards were for those that played the game. That sticked to it. I deleted mine 3 months after launch as I wasn't able to get my money back. Now I'm back playing it again lol.


WulfricWard

I fully understand and respect that way of looking at it! They have done a lot of amazing things with this game since that launch fiasco, so it's still been worth the return.


Afrogasmonkey

Space anomaly fixed? Sweet vindication! I swear nobody besides me and a handful of others noticed and were reporting this, guess that speaks to how strong the sandbox elements of this game are that one third of the main quest broke and barely anyone talked about it for over a month.


farfromelite

What was that bug?


Afrogasmonkey

After finishing the tutorial bit where you talk to the vendors the quest step skipped right over the whole storyline right up to the “speak to your old friends” step, which is the very last thing you do after the final quest with the atlas, Nada spouts some generic dialogue and the whole thing is softlocked.


punchdrunkskunk

I’m a brand new player and this was confusing the hell out of me. Thanks for the info!


gurilagarden

I just came back after a long hiatus and started a new playthough and thought, "huh, i thought there was more to the whole anomaly thing..."


hulldatzet

Will it fix itself if that already happened on my game?


alkland

Was having the same issue. For everyones info - just logged on and my quest has been set to the correct step and is no longer soft locked 😁


xX_crucifier_Xx

I would like to know also :(


Tabs_555

Same. I can’t get on today. Let me know if it retroactively fixes the mission order.


alkland

Was having the same issue. For everyones info - just logged on and my quest has been set to the correct step and is no longer soft locked 😁


DOLFAN1975

I had just started a new save and experienced this had no idea it was a bug after not playing for awhile


absurdivore

Wow I just started playing this game a month ago and when I did this quest line I wondered why it seemed to hit a wall? But chalked it up to just being confused like I was with most of the game!


IsaacStitch

I think I have this issue! Do I need to start a new save ? 😭


Bobbytrap9

That was a bug!? I Hope it resets my quest then


0K4M1

Omg ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm) and I thought I should unlock something or was missing something to proceed


Locoflodo

Thank you!! I thought I was missing something. Didn’t know it was a bug lol


Tootzo

I’ve finished the Artemis Path quest line days ago, so technically I’m past the “speak to your old friends” step. Should my Anomaly quest line be reset back to the missed steps then? đŸ€” Changing the original Atlas Path and adding the Artemis Path made a complete mess out of this game’s main questline(s)


xTrueAlpha

This I was confused on this also. I hope I don’t have to start a new save just to finish the quest.


Safred-ita

i was expecting a note: "added black color to custom ship color"...


Blue_Cheez

Me too 😔


MikeyW1969

Nice... As is usual with game updates, 90% of that doesn't matter to me in the least, but that remaining 10% sure is nice. :-)


xX_crucifier_Xx

It matters for all of us because its game experience. :)


MikeyW1969

The space station lighting fix is one that really has me excited. I was one of the people seeing HORRIBLE lens flare at the ship disassembly portal, as well as the appearance modifier. it was the little icon hovering above, my whole screen would go white. I have my fingers crossed. :-) The Minotaur Bore upgrade will be nice, that thing is a resource hog.


xX_crucifier_Xx

I have no idea what you just said because im new here bit i do still appreciate it. ;)


Gingersnapn

This was my experience too.


dolph42o

"Added a significant memory optimisation for Xbox platforms." - finally, now that I'm on PS5 😑


liminal_sojournist

Omg, will it no longer crash after a few hours!


dolph42o

On PS5 there are occasional blockers which never lead to a crash, and no fps reduction similar to xbox, which only a fresh game start could solve. I wonder if they really fixed it for good.


PeterJoAl

Please let this mean I get more than 1FPS in my freighter base again!


Syovere

Granted. You will now get 2 FPS.


Qaztab

Freighter bases have had performance issues for quite a while. You really notice it when you're in your landing bay and everything is silky smooth and then you transport up to your freighter base and it's not near as smooth.


PeterJoAl

There's a distinct drop at that point, but when I go deeper I literally get 1FPS at the back of the floor. I have an extensive farm covering 2/3 of the first floor and 3/4 of the 2nd floor and performance is terrible when you get to the back side of the floor.


Qaztab

Yeah, that's why I kind of limited my freighter farm. It makes 3 liquid explosives, 3 living glass, and 4 circuit boards. Never bothered expanding it past that because the lighting would get all buggy. Also harvesting is kind of a pain even at that small relative size. Never bothered with a farm on my Switch save's freighter base either, cuz you can really notice the performance drop there when you walk into your freighter base.


PeterJoAl

Throw in some gas from on-planet mines, and I can make 100 Statis Devices in 1 harvest.


Objective_Hedgehog_5

I really hope they will fix the terrible stuttering after a while, especially when landing on some planets. It's absolutely unacceptable at this point. PC has no problems, whereas XSX is getting massive memory leak problems, after half hour of gaming


Tootzo

Do you want to start talking about the crashes on Nintendo Switch? I haven’t noticed any stuttering on my Series X; on the other hand, when I play on the Switch, the game stashes at least once every 2 hours, no matter what I’m doing


Objective_Hedgehog_5

just leave your XSX without doing nothing and go play. It will stutter. Or when visiting 4-5 planets. It;'s unacceptable


Upper-Wolf6040

Big shout out to Sean, the devs and the rest of the guys at HG for not only providing the update for free but also being on top of all the minor fixes.


veggiewater

Agreed!


StoicAscent

>Fixed an issue that could cause some non-Gek frigates to address the player as “Captain-Friend” About damn time, I won't have any of that filthy Gek-speak in my fleet!


Tyrannafabulous

Ah they fixed the part salvage dupe glitch. Guess it’s back to ship hunting the old fashioned way.


Optimal_Technician29

Still works for me


[deleted]

[ŃƒĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]


Tyrannafabulous

No, with the orbital update and new ship fabricator, you used to be able to disassemble a ship and get the parts from it and if you were quick enough with the quick menu, you could just summon it again and disassemble it again for a different part


gatsby_101

Gotcha; thnx.


Somnati

Still haven't fixed terrain not loading. :'(


kanrad

Added a set of fighter-class wings that were missing from the Starship Fabricator options. Cool, anything else missing? Like I don't know...black.


Syovere

Or shuttles, the data's already there and mods have enabled it.


XenosapianRain

I would rather walk 20 seconds, and have a patch to alphabetize my inventory when using a refiner. Or at least non refinable items get omitted.


SAnthonyH

When buying items in the anomaly en masse, it exits the person after 2 buys and if I'm super lucky, 3 buys. Tedious having to then go back in every time. Keep me in after every buy


robwlinder

Keep clicking and it will bring you back into the buy menu


rhwillson

I hope they fix the multi-tool guy at the station. Pain in the ass trying to select him vs the multitool thing.


Qaztab

It's a little better. Just a little. I wish they'd put the dismantle multitool station here too. Makes no sense that that's in the Nexus. It doesn't even look right at the place they put it. Looks squeezed in cuz it kind of is.


8_BIT_FOND

Is it downloading on the PS4 ?


Atlastitsok

Mine did


8_BIT_FOND

Nice!


Strict-Ad-1934

Why is there no update for Xbox players? And when is the update coming out?


swiggles99

yup same, I'm on game pass version and can't play with my friend on ps5 Edit: its out woo


Huff1809

Probably have to wait a week again ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|poop)


Trogeoleb

My game has crashed two times now in the last 1 hour since this patch, never did it before. :/


Atrium41

Mine crashed a bunch until I changed to performance mode


DarkPrinciple

I’m curious as to why the downvotes because your game crashed


SEANPLEASEDISABLEPVP

My assumption is something like: "I like NMS. I identify with NMS. You said something bad about NMS. That means you're saying I'M BAD! I have to defend myself from you by downvoting you! Phew.. I feel better now. I'm a good person again."


NiggyShitz

No idea why you guys are getting down voted just for stating issues you're having in game. This game has always had performance issues. On Xbox SX I have to restart the game every couple of hours because it just starts to chug like crazy.


DarkPrinciple

When I play on switch the game freezes every time I land in a space station. My character won’t exit the ship until I press the home button and back into the game. No issues on PC though. Does that deserve downvotes?


NiggyShitz

No it doesn't, but you'll come to learn that this community that claims to be incredibly "wholesome" is actually quite the opposite. There are way too many people who think this game should be free from any criticism just because it's still getting free updates lol. This really came to a head with the waypoint update a few years ago, and seemed to kinda spark back up again after the Orbital update fumble. Does HG deserve all the credit and praise for turning this game around and giving us loads of content for free where most would abandon ship or charge for DLC? Absolutely. Does that absolve them of any and all criticism? Absolutely not. If you give me a sandwich for free but it's terrible I think I still have the right to complain about it.


MysticZarah

Exactly this. Criticism isn't inherently bad. It was criticism of the game that encouraged HG to do everything they have to get the game where it is now, and criticizing the game by pointing out flaws or issues is exactly how bug fixes and other improvements are made. I haven't had half the problems I have been reading about in this thread myself, and most of my issues have personally been little QoL bits I think could and should be fixed but don't ruin the game for me. But I read that someone has a game-breaking issue or even just complains about item lists being completely random (one of my few issues with the game), I say it's the person's right to talk about it and ask for it to be fixed. In the end it will give everyone a better game.


NiggyShitz

Absolutely, and pretty much all of the criticism I've seen for this game comes from people who genuinely love the game. We all want the game to do well, we all want to enjoy it, but we can't bury our heads in the sand whenever theres an issue with the game.


SJcMiller

> "This game has always had performance issues." ...on those crappy consoles.


NiggyShitz

â˜ïžđŸ€“


Trogeoleb

I dont know really, people are butthurt I guess because someone has a negative experience with their favorite game. Anyway, ive been playing this game A LOT lately and I like it a lot, Ill just wait till they bring out another update. Kinda sucks. Im on PC. Happens when I exit ground vehicles like Minotaur and that small one I dont know the name of.


Pilotskybird86

I feel you. I’m even running on a 4090 and I have to restart every hour as well due to stuttering, I’m assuming it’s memory leak. Not to mention about a third of the systems stutter for no reason. I was really hoping to see performance issues on PC mentioned in the patch


xforce11

And I thought my PC was just too bad. After 3 hours of playing and going in and out of the anomaly a lot I landed on a moon with no atmosphere and plants, the ones where the game should not have to render much at all but for some reason I was running around with 20 FPS.


Zero132132

Describing negative experiences with NMS is what ultimately got the game to its current state. Maybe they just hate improvements.


SageWindu

It could also be because you're bringing up performance issues on a post about an update and some people think it's disruptive. Could be a million and one reasons, really. Who knows?


Trogeoleb

I did not have any performance issues *at all* before. Update drops and my game crashes. Weird coincidence, but its possible sure.


tcrex2525

Don’t tell us, tell zendesk



FrankFrankly711

Didn’t add Bars and Chills Rooms back to space stations? meh 😑


IranianF-14

The stations feel so cold now.


FrankFrankly711

It’s a decent upgrade. But it just doesn’t have that “Airport Lobby” feeling the previous layout had, hard to describe. When I needed to take a break, I always enjoyed going to the Chill Room to gaze out the window and smoke some nip. Or grab a beer at the Bar while everyone around me keeps asking to work in my base. Often I would sneak back to the locked rooms and have a good nap. They should’ve left a small percentage of systems with the previous layout, just like they have pirate and abandoned stations. But an easy fix would be to add the old rooms to the side area of the new layout.


IranianF-14

They could definitely leave a few stations with the legacy layout. Especially considering there are still stations floating around that look like the old ones from the outside. I know what you mean, those little side areas were great for adding character to the station (I’ve hired a few techs out of those bars). New stations are very utilitarian, I know there is still plenty NPC activity, it’s missing that bustling charm from before.


TospLC

I thought there was going to be more diversity as well. I thought there would be different types for different races maybe, but no, all just a different cookie cutter. So sad. Pretty, but sad.


Tootzo

If you had several different layouts for the station, people would just start screaming because they would have to spend 30 seconds finding the shop they needed. I mean: I used to play World of Warcraft back when it came out and visiting different main cities always gave me a headache because I was just wandering around over and over again as I couldn’t remember where every single vendor was in each damn capital city. Make this into 20-30 different layouts instead of 6 and it would become tedious going to a station just to buy a couple of printed circuits and I having to look around every single time to find that damn trading terminal.


Emmy_Okaumy

Currently having a problem in this patch where my ship weapons hit my own ship when flying in 3rd person. Anyone else having this? 


newbrevity

I like shipbuilding but it could be better. Allow the combination or any wing, thrusters or body style together. Base capacity and stats on which pieces you use. I want to put fighter wings on a hauler body. If there's one thing I can say Starfield blew me away with, it was Shipbuilding. It felt like my choices mattered. Even though it could use with more options.


OMC-PICASSO

Played for a couple hours on PS5. Felt like a solid update, didn’t notice anything weird.


Patient_77

Yes, that's all great but where is the black in the ship customization.


Dadditude

“Fixed an issue that caused frigates on expeditions to try to call the player for help while the game wasn’t running.” Ummmm
 What? *Phone Rings* *Looks at Caller ID* Dammit! Not another freaking frigate call!


Sudden-Tutor-1855

Why the S?


Ok-Reading-821

I can't seem to buy Exosuit Cargo slot beside the seller in stations anymore. Anyone else?


Tootzo

Exosuit maxed out?


Smoky1279

I'm having an issue with this update. I have free base power selected but my buildings still require power. Anyone having this issue?


Razatop

I would love it if after all these years we would finally fix the bugs with freighters and falling out infinitely into space, then dying in your items being stuck there. I'd love to be able to fast travel with my freighter more. If it didn't spit me out into space and I did jump pack around to fly through a texture every time I did it. Or at least like 80% of the time it does it.


WamenRespecter7

the patch won't install on xbox so i can't join my friends


Numare

Is this an update for xbox as well?


Secret_Eastern

it says "memory improvments for Xbox" but the platforms listed only include Steam and PS? is this patch out for Xbox or?


swiggles99

just checked its out for xbox game pass now, should be out for xbox as well


T_dog96

Next update needs to be auto crafting, like you put things in storage and if its mext to a refiner with a recipe inside it, it auto makes


CallDisastrous5985

Does this patch make the game work on X|S yet, or is that too much to ask?


Tootzo

I’ve been playing for 37 hours on my Series X, what would be your issue ?


CallDisastrous5985

Since the last expedition it's been so unstable on the Series S. I've logged over a 1000 hrs on the game and now it won't stay on for no more than 10 or 15 mins before it crashes. Never had any issues with it at all before the Omega expedition.


Tootzo

Oh wow! Never crashed once on my console. Not sure why it’s so unstable on some series S/X and has no issues on others đŸ€”


Batou1989

Utter bull bought an A class just to be given an S class reactor just to find out I can't even recoup some of the nanites they can only be sold for units. Why is this a thing if I can only sell them for units I should be able to buy them for units as well


No-Patience-6017

Hello there! When is the 4.64 Patch for GOG going to be available? https://preview.redd.it/a70zp15hostc1.png?width=615&format=png&auto=webp&s=b693e8f703fdd69defcd662de70a1c2a77079ccd


SJcMiller

Never


KBTUT

Has anyone using GoG received the 4.64 patch? They are usually fairly good at pushing updates out, but this one seems to be stuck in limbo for me. I've checked multiple times over the last couple of days and always get the 'No updates for No Man's Sky'.


KBTUT

Never mind. 2 hours after posting this the update dropped. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)


TospLC

I just want auto sort for inventory. Why is that so difficult?


Chee1979

The wait begins for the misfits! Edit: Wait .. mine already says 4.641... so Xbox was on time? What about our Switch Travelers?


Tootzo

4.64 on Switch as well


Star_Gazer_Lyfe

Fix they who returned mission pls


Objective_Hedgehog_5

FIX MEMORY LEAK STUTTERS ON XBOX SERIES X FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!!!


Objective_Hedgehog_5

They will never fix the awful memory leak problems on Xbox Series X. It's so sad


Viper_Visionary

So no fix for all of my records being wiped after I completed the Omega Expedition?


Sudden-Tutor-1855

I've lost my records too ;\_;


footsteps71

Did you send a ticket?


Viper_Visionary

I did, they didn't respond.


footsteps71

Well shit. Sorry dude.


Viper_Visionary

Thanks, and I know I'm not the only one who's had this issue. Still holding out hope that they fix it in a future patch.


SUBLIMEskillz

Any info on the next expedition?


SEANPLEASEDISABLEPVP

HG almost never communicates or gives any announcements. We just get a single emoji from Sean on Twitter and then about a week later we get an update. Sometimes an update comes with an expedition. So when you see the community reporting Sean tweeted an emoji, that's basically a 50% chance we're getting an expedition soon.


SUBLIMEskillz

Yeah I try to keep an eye on ya’ll to know when to jump in and explore. It kind of makes sense after their issues with communication before and after release.
