Diplos or Giant blobs! i discovered gigantic 8m blobs on a planet (26 feet converted) and am making the HQ of a corporation based on blob hunting and taming! those blobs give extreme loot when hunted!Will be awesome. i have been searching for diplos FOREVER! I have come up short with only giant blobs.
Haha yeah, I love Blob Worlds!
Ohh Iām all in if you guys do this! Iām loving the game so far but itās lonely, would be pretty cool to have a boundless community
Awesome, it will be great to have you, and yep, I think we could really make a cool community with all us NMS/Boundless fans!
Official announcement of crossplay and more!
Huge yay!! This is going to bring a TON of people into the NMS community Iām sure. Iāll pick up the Windows 10 versionā¦ well, I think Iām probably going to go ahead and just sign up for GamePass, there are some other games Iād play for sure. $5 a month isnāt bad at all, and automatically upgrades you to Gold, which Iāve let lapse on Xbox.
Edit: Well, I was all confused on the Game Pass thing, prices, how it works (Xbox and PC are separate unless you do Ultimate)ā¦ but since I own the Xbox NMS, seems to be free to install on PC. Except it isnāt working for some reason. Ah well, will stick to consoles if I canāt - any social play will be on PS4 though!
Derelict freighters are kinda a mess right now. Theres invisible and visible obstructions that prevent you from finishing the rooms which is a bummer. Hope they work this out soon.
Theyāre super easy, too. Still, itās content.
yeah they definitely surprise me every update.
I need to play more NMS tbh I used to have a massive activated indium farm and stuff, but then I had to wipe my PS4 (before I knew about Boundless) and had to start again
So like all my games are dropping big updates all the sudden!
YAY!!
Here are the notes, this is the one Iāve been waiting for, being such an explorer and virtual photographer!
Iāve not done as much on my Twitter for NMS lately even though it was set up for NMS shots originallyā¦ but sure to get a new flood of them now!
How did I repay HG? Tweeting these back at Seanā¦
ā¦ Well, he DOES kind of ask for it with his baiting us - but, this just goes to show that the WS crew here isnāt the only group of devs Iām an obnoxious photo-butchering annoyance to!
Edit: Really great video about the update! -
Anyone try the new Pioneers Expedition update? I just completed it after about 50 hours of play because I ran around and made a few mistakes.
The rewards you get are nice but even though you can move them over I wish all of it was on the same saveā¦
I just hit waypoint 1, but Iām quite new to the game and Iām still playing Boundless quite a bit.
Losing progress due to buggy multiplayer has lost me several hours of expedition progress though. Probably 20-30% of my time has been lost to freezes, teleporter errors, etc. NMS was not designed for this many people to play in the same space at the same time.
I had a few crashes as well. To help I wouldnāt go near the final waypoints right away. This way the system would load better and as I neared the planet for the waypoint I would land far away and make sure I had a save. Then I would slowly move in to that area and maybe land again as I got closer. This way it ended up loading much better. Also I would save regularly and just be careful as I loaded into any heavy area not to move the mouse right away and let things load in.
A few other tips are to do the Explorer Guild missions over the course of all the other quests so it gets done easier. For the Abyssal Treasure, watch a few tutorials before doing so your quest doesnāt act up like mine - I also think there is a specific time you should scan for the ruins - after 14:00 and to talk to the entity right around 16:30. Otherwise I was having a hard time getting ruins to spawn. For the Abandoned system you need to actually discover the system. I made sure to get the conflict and economy scanner and started looking at farther away planets. For all the ānew system discoverā ones I ended up focusing on red stars since they seem to get less traffic. Otherwise I just focused on getting the stuff done because I wanted the rewards on my other save and not this one.
It was fun over all and keeps reminding me how much fun the game can be especially around exploringā¦
I havenāt finished it yet. I wasted a lot of time on things like āfarming 50 plantsā before someone told me to locate a base that was called āfarmingā, etc. I was also experiencing crashes and lost progress, including my 1st save. I got super annoyed at that. Thank you for the tips. I hope to complete everything by Sunday.
There are a few bases for the 30 sec fall. I have one if you need a planetā¦ I found a super tall mountain and just built a stairway far upā¦
Well, I guess I went to the neighbours, while on my Boundless break ā¦
ā¦ and found a sort of [Therka]
Looking up into the night sky of Boundless reminds me of NMS
yes theyāre both beautiful games! I love the blocky aspect of Boundless, but I love exploring in creative mode NMS. Did you know that No Mans skyās skymap is based off the galaxy map (at least from my testing, I found a star column and found a star system on the edge of a region next to it and examined the planetās skymap. Sooner or later i actually found the star column on the planetās skymap.
Yep, Iām now at the point where Iām purely playing in creative mode, just exploring and finding cool new planets to screenshot. I almost never play any games in creative mode since I like a feeling of reward, but here, it is less a game now to me than a chill escape from reality into another universe.
Here are a couple pretty ones I found lately -
