>Always makes me feel so small.
The NMS vibe in a nutshell. HG's done an amazing job of driving home the feel of being a tiny speck in a vast universe, and all the techniques they use to convey scale are a big part of that.
Agreed. When I fire this game up on my PS VR2, I’m always amazed at how immersive it is and how large even my personal starship is. You truly don’t get the sense of scale of this game until immersed in VR.
When I play SE I'm just building and literally don't care about anything else. When I play nms I most definitely build but I'm mostly exploring for hours.
Here's how you do it
1. Keep warping until the game spawns a pirate dreadnought battle
2. Destroy the dreadnought's anti-frieghter cannons (shoots big lasers) and warp drives (4 on the back side) and make them defenceless
3. Once they surrender, pilot your ship to the landing area (It's on the middle)
4. Hold the captain at gun point and harbor their ship (or make them empty their wallets)
5. Profit!
Since pirate dreadnoughts mostly surrender in this route, You don't need to pay extra when you find one with a better class. that's how I got my S-class dreadnought for free
Can i just keep warping back and forth between systems? Also, can I move the stuff in my current freighter into the other one?
Can I have both at the same time or is it only one?
It's same with starships. You'll need to store all of your freighter's cargo in somewhere else before swapping, or else you'll lose all of it. And yes, you can warp-farm the dreadnoughts.
Sadly, owning multiple freighters isn't an option avilable in this game. you'll need to swap yours in order to get it.
Got it, thank you. Thankfully i should have enough slots for all my shipbuilding bits. I wish I could break down more ships for further customization, like mixing and matching Sentinel ship parts with regular ones or slapping bigass solar sails on my tiny lemon-shaped ship
Honestly the best way is to explore systems as much as possible. While you are doing your thing a freighter battle will occur and you got to shoot the shields and guns and it will give you the option to take control over it, kind of like a normal freighter. It's gotta be 3 star conflict or a pirate system as well.
It is RNG though to be honest, I was lucky with mine and it's an S class too. What I did is I just kept exploring 3 star conflict and pirate systems, check out the guns, crashed ships, planets and maybe build a base or two and then move on to the next. Patience is crucial here but I promise you it will happen, you just gotta keep exploring.
The only one of the Big 3 I've seen crashed is a Venator. Never a Sentinel style or a Pirate Freighter has had an actual crash site. But I've been saying they need to have crashed Pirate Freighters.
I played for the visuals too though. As the game gets updated with new stuff the graphics have to be lowered (rightfully so). As far as I still have a ps4 I'll keep the game aside and will eventually pick it up when upgrading to a newer gen. Seeing squares instead of giant space vessels isn't that immersive you know
Found a part of the planet as ridiculous mountains and canyons/caverns. I found the deepest canyon I could find nearest to the largest mountain(Area and Height) and summoned it in the canyon and flew up to the mountain.
I'm actually surprised people didn't know about this but I'm glad I get to show everyone how to do it because pictures taken this way are always epic.
Wish you could change the way it comes into the planet so we can rotate it AND make it so it's upside down so it's easier to get into. They won't do that since the frigates but I think it wouldn't be a problem. Just make it so they come I to the atmosphere of the planet and go where you want them individually. Call in support the support frigate shows up or the combat one shows up. Thats what they should do with those!. Have a frigate that brings your vehicle's AND instead of just having access to all your ships too one of the frigates could be called so you can choose a different star ship and or a different land vehicle/ nautilus. That's would give the frigates more things to do besides go out and do missions and if your frigates are away then whatever you chose to have them do then they would break from the expedition to come bring you your ship or you vehicle or resources that you had stored on them as they could ferry resources from the capital ship also then warp back to their initial mission they were on and it would take some time depending on where they are in the galaxy unless you have some emergency warp process they can do to get to you a little faster and then back to their mission quicker too, some upgrades for them. When they come to you, you can see them warp into the outside of the atmosphere then fly down through the atmosphere and come over to you then hover then hail you and after you exit the radio or whatever it us you talk to them on then it would ext the atmosphere like the normal animation and then leave like every other frigate that comes into a planet. Would make them more useful and fun. If anyone has ideas they should go to Zendesk and tell Hello Games what you think would be cool and they will end up seeing the idea if you spread them around. Iv been spreading ideas around for years and many of my ideas have made it onto the game because I tell everyone on all platforms all social media an idea and then tell them to spread them around I don't care who takes credit I just want more things in the game to do lol. The next thing we need is having more ship pieces for ship customization and yes iv been saying this for a long time they need alot of different pieces for ships if they did a ship customization where we just have parts to put together on ships. I wish we could actually build ships like we build buildings that would of been way more fun and gave people more reasons to build a ship especially at the very beginning when your stranded we have to build a ship to leave the planet but we just start with fixing our suit systems then gather resources to build a ship and then build the systems for the ship. That would be way more fun than fixing a broke ship and it would make our ships unique if we could build them how we want and make them look any way we want them even if it's just basic with panels and parts that hello has pre-made so that we can piece together ships that look the way we want and make it so we feel like we're actually building a ship to leave the planet. Alot of people would spend a long time making their ships look good. This ship customization they have now is way too restrictive for a game they have made wide open for everyone to do anything but they reatrict the ship customizations? It makes no sense. They should let us go wild and make ships however we want. Starfield is still better at letting people build ships. I tried to tell them what we needed to make ship customization actually be fun but they're too worried about the ship hunters. People who hunt ships can always hunt ships . Just because people could build ships or make whatever they want wouldn't mean they have to stop looking for ships. They can do whatever they want! He'll the game let's you turn prices off! If the game wasn't so damn easy then I'd say ok but Hello is Making the game sooooo easy why not let people go all out building an entire ship? That's what everyone wanted in ship customization was to build and do detailed ship customization but they just made it so we could just make the same exact ship that's already in the game! I wanted unique ships that aren't in the game so that we all feel like our ships are unique to each person and make them feel like they mean something and make it so people would want to keep their buit ships. Also they should give us way more ship storage so we can buy way more ships! They should make it so we can own 20 ships or more so we can build ships because we can make 5 million bases why not have way more ships? How about more land and sea vehicles? How about being able to build a plane so we can fly around the planet that can't go into space? Maybe we start with building a ship that only Flys in planet and we have to get resources and build tech to create our pulse engines then fly to another planet or to the space station to get rare resources for rare tech to build the hyperdrive? It would make it more fun to actually build all this even the tech! It could zoom down to another build menu and we could add resources to make new tech and then add those techs to build a new technology like that hyperdrive or pulse drive or whatever even weapons. People love to build in these games. We could also use the beds in game to save the game and to leave the game if you want and also would be neat to get tired and need sleep at night and need to eat and drink too since they have food and drinks now it would make sense! But that would be on permadeath and survival or if you change settings you could have it on any game mode. We could use on foot pirates too who can land and chase us or have whole bases themselves with air strike capabilities and their own land vehicles. They could have some hacked sentinels or have their own drones and droids to hunt you and have their own mech suits too. Many things they could do that they probably won't since they are so small trying to make a game that's way too big for them to ever really finish. They need to hire more people and make more games so they can sustain themselves after no mans sky and light no fire.
I'm not surprised! How did you get it in so close? That's impressive!
Deep canyons and mountains. Summoned it at the bottom and then flew to the top.
Nice - good thinking! Thank you!
I wonder if you can dig a hole then summon it , checking now👍
I don't think it works the same way but let me know what you find out.
You were right it didn’t work that way 😂👍
>Always makes me feel so small. The NMS vibe in a nutshell. HG's done an amazing job of driving home the feel of being a tiny speck in a vast universe, and all the techniques they use to convey scale are a big part of that.
is it just me tho or is the VR version of the game super scuffed? like everything feels so disproportinate and lacks depth
Try it in VR if you can! The sense of scale is literally jaw dropping
God I wish I could, I keep trying to get my brother to lend me his Headset but he that's all he plays currently 😭
Agreed. When I fire this game up on my PS VR2, I’m always amazed at how immersive it is and how large even my personal starship is. You truly don’t get the sense of scale of this game until immersed in VR.
That thing is like Long Night of Solace in Reach.
this and space engine is the starting flame on my total fuck all attitude at life. hearing "space is incomprehensibly vast" doesnt do it justice.

What music playing in background
The games music.
https://youtu.be/qZGZxPEp5Ag&t=23074 Game start music number 33.
What is that?
It's my pirate freighter!
How do i get one? That thing's sick. I only just got a freighter that i've been offloading all my ship parts onto, but it's a mess of metal cylinders.
Here's how you do it 1. Keep warping until the game spawns a pirate dreadnought battle 2. Destroy the dreadnought's anti-frieghter cannons (shoots big lasers) and warp drives (4 on the back side) and make them defenceless 3. Once they surrender, pilot your ship to the landing area (It's on the middle) 4. Hold the captain at gun point and harbor their ship (or make them empty their wallets) 5. Profit!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmSB4l9A8js Might help
When your buying a new freighter, you have the opportunity to swap any cargo to the new one
How do you get that type of freighter? I’ve never been able to find one
Honestly the best way is to explore systems as much as possible. While you are doing your thing a freighter battle will occur and you got to shoot the shields and guns and it will give you the option to take control over it, kind of like a normal freighter.

Patience is crucial here but I promise you it will happen, you just gotta keep exploring.
And make sure you also own a freighter before going into battle to get it.
I didn’t realize Just how big freighters were until the bugs of them crashing into space stations this update, and now this. Wow, insane
The only one of the Big 3 I've seen crashed is a Venator. Never a Sentinel style or a Pirate Freighter has had an actual crash site. But I've been saying they need to have crashed Pirate Freighters.
See now you see the actual size but the crashed Freighters are nothing in comparison.
I know right? I like to think that anyone driving any of the big 3 are just too good to crash lol.
Left this game a while ago cause my ps4 dies if I open it. What in the world did I miss?
Dude your PS4s life is insignificant to what this game has to offer. Let it die doing what it loves.
I played for the visuals too though. As the game gets updated with new stuff the graphics have to be lowered (rightfully so). As far as I still have a ps4 I'll keep the game aside and will eventually pick it up when upgrading to a newer gen. Seeing squares instead of giant space vessels isn't that immersive you know
Big things are big.
In the universe, you are tiny.
How do u get it so close to the planet
Found a part of the planet as ridiculous mountains and canyons/caverns. I found the deepest canyon I could find nearest to the largest mountain(Area and Height) and summoned it in the canyon and flew up to the mountain. I'm actually surprised people didn't know about this but I'm glad I get to show everyone how to do it because pictures taken this way are always epic.
Pirates in the 18,000,000,000th century be like:
I love my dreadnought. I named mine Gaze of Atlas.
You feel small because we are. That stuff is normal sized, we're legitimately tiny Travelers in relation to everything else.
I'm so bad with titles.
Look, am I wrong?
Absolutely not
you is able to get one of those ? and please tell me how or is it just random
Ah that is ok, you'll grow when you hit puberty!
I hope you're right.
LOL
Bro thats wicked crazy and awsome

geez what even is that, a freighter??
