No Man's Sky Adrift Expedition Guide
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- G'day Gamers, welcome to my first proper guide for No Man's Sky: Adrift Expedition. I made a lot of mistakes so you don't have to, and I guarantee you will save a lot of time if you follow this guide to complete the Expedition. Now, I want to keep the introduction short so we can get straight into things but there's a few things you should know. This guide isn't in order of objectives, I have arranged it so it's as time-efficient as I could be. Another thing is that if you are looking to find the Synthetic Animals for the "It's Alive" objective, it's the last thing I do to complete the Expedition so go to the end of the guide to find out the easiest way to find them.
Time codes need to be rewound a little bit in time, I made time codes for key marks, I hope this will be useful to someone.

Thank you! I'm hoping to put all the timestamps in asap
@@whatsitlikeau Thank you for your work
Seeing someone even have the guts to pronounce galaxy and planet names in no mans sky is mind-boggling
I probably should have cut it but when I laughed at myself I figured that hopefully it might make others laugh too. Some of those names though!
@@whatsitlikeau And you're damn right! I almost choked on water while watching you! Really good content you make, you've earned yourself a subscriber ❤
Thank you! Glad to make you laugh, sorry to make you choke hahaha
I saw one that was littlerly quagmire, no one has ever been to that system before like, bro
Scanning also earns good money. Use the money at a space station galactic trade terminal to buy Drop Pod Data. As you fly around locating the drop pods, make sure to hit the Save Flag, at each location. Do 12 of them and objective complete. You'll want the backpack upgrades the Drop Pods provide to unlock the 3rd high power slot on your exosuit (so work toward the right.)
Bread also provides a jetPack Boost for 15 seconds, so it's handy to have a stack.
They do need to add a "Hot Bar" if you will, so you can bind the bread to a key, ie 1, to make it simple to use the bread, in the way you can bind a specific multitool to a specific key.
Thise are some amazing tips! I've highlited this for other Travellers, thank you!
Put the first S Class Scanner Upgrade you receive into a Super Charged Slot to almost double the money you get from scanning
(its probabl not double, but it IS a significant amount more)
Where can i find galactic trafe terminals at i the adrift expedition?
@@idke7328 You have to go upstairs and down the corridor. All stations have them hidden away down that corridor in this expedition. Let me know how you go!
@@idke7328 Any Space Station, as you fly in, take the right hand side room
Or any Tradepost on the Planets (the ones with 7 landing pads) should have one, though youll need an economy scanner to fidn one easily
Also the Planetary Archives and the small Tradeposts (with a single landing pad) have them too
They are all a bit messed up (purposely) during Adrift and wont always give great prices, and sell things at higher prices but they do work
Space Station is easiest
You should be able to travel to previous space stations you landed on, via the Gates found on the opposite side of the station to the GTT
I just did the whole expedition today, 7/13/2024 and this video helped a ton! Thank you for the informative video!!
You're welcome!
thank you so much for your guide, it helped me to complete the expedition in just a few hours with 9 minutes left before it ends!!
That's so good mate!
Thank you for the guide video. This is my first time to play expedition nms.
This is very different from the other expeditions so you're in for a treat! I hope my guide helped and I hope you enjoys your shiny hauler at the end of it!
Thanks for the video. I have been trying to find those synthetic creatures since this expedition came out. Again thanks. Short and to the point.
Glad you found them! I spend about 6 hours looking for them!
Nice video, straight to the point!
Thank you, I really appreciate the feedback
First, thank you for this guide, its helping me a lot.😍
Second, I'm playing NMS for more than 5 years always alone, never with other players, and I was very happy to just talk with npcs in Space Station and other places , but this expedition without any npc is making me depressed, very sad.
Just doing it for the sake of doing them all .
Again, thank you for making it easy and faster to finish 🤓
I'm so glad my guide helped! NMS is such a great experience and while the concept of this expedition seemed great on paper, I agree that it was too desolate
Well, this is the best, most concise expedition guide I have ever used. Subbing and looking forward to your next guide. I never get around to expeditions until there are barely days to go.
Well this is the best and most consise comment that's made my day! Thank you! Looking forward to making some new guides in the future!
You're amazing man!
As a new player, you helped me a lot.
Much appreciated.
No you're amazing! Welcome to the game! I hope you enjoy cruising around in your epic hauler at the end of the expedition!
Finished in just shy of 9hrs. great guide, thanks!
Glad it helped! Enjoy the hauler, traveller!
EDIT: My original comment is below. I figured it out with an experienced NMS buddy. Here's what happened and I hope it helps another NMS rookie!
It turns out I *did* get the Hyperdrive upgrade blueprints, but I didn't really notice them, or know what they were for. I then must have quickly filled all the free Ship technology slots with upgrades etc.
That meant I never had a free slot to click on. If I did the pop-up would have suggested the Hyperdrive upgrades!
As a new player I didn't see the relevance of the Catalogue/Guide and had never looked at all the "known" blueprints I had collected. So I had no idea that I actually has the 3 blueprints :)
Because the "Adrift" expedition mostly guides the player I just kept moving on to new missions, thinking the use of the "Catalogue" was for later, non-expedition gameplay. Great, concise video guide, thanks.
ORIGINAL comment:
Thanks for the video, but I must be missing something: I cannot find any Warp drive upgrade blueprints, so I cannot visit the "Blue" systems. Everything else can be figured out by a new player and a bit of help/googling, but the "It's Alive" mission is doing my head in!! I have not found a single "Empty" world.
Any suggestions anyone?
(I have tried every suggestion on Reddit and Steam I think ;) )
Warp Drive plans are an objective award from the "Amidst the Stars" mission (crafting The Mind Ark one) After that you should be able to install the drives, no need to purchase plans. For the Synthetic life, at the final Rendezvous planet, you should be able to fly up on the system map and there are 2 blue planets (at the end of this video) that house 1 and 2 synth creatures respectively. Hope that helps!
Signs to Nowhere mission was annoying. Thanks for the help, finally completed.
Glad you got there!
Excellent guide was very helpful to me as I didn't play the game for so long. Before I found it I was just stuck looking for Copper as I didn't remember you could scan for it :O I like that your guide doesn't go overly in the details, just gives a useful order in which to complete the steps.
I enjoyed Expedition 13. Initially I thought it was a terrible way of getting back into the game because I thought it would be a lot of survival but once you get off the initial planet there's really not much challenge tbh. Which is fine by me since there is so much to do anyway. It ended up being a re-introduction to many elements of the game for me, like refining components, scanning and upgrading. In a way, the empty stations and settlements made it less overwhelming to get back in the game. Now I started a new Normal game and I love to see the lively Space Stations. Truly Expedition #13 is awesome if you took a long break.
Now I wonder if they will ever re=open older expeditions? I have not completed any prior ones. When the game goes on maintenance I guess they should put them on a cycle kinda like Guild Wars does.
I really appreciate your feedback and sharing your thoughts on the Expedition.
They do open older expeditions, and last year we were lucky to get a chance at grabbing the golden vector. From memory they open selected expeditions around December for 4 weeks at a time.
10:18 you can also use the nutrient processor in your restored freighter if you have one to make the bread aswell
Thats good to know!
Third time watching, crafting blue and green star drives requires resources I have not found up to stage 4, surprised you are saying to do this much earlier than where I am.
From memory the first drive only requires Chromatic metal and wiring looms which can be purchased from the abandoned space stations. From there it should be as easy as finding a red system for the next metal and so on an so forth. Let me know if you're still stuck and I'll jump on and see what's going on
Just FYI I put a base on the rendezvous 2 area to complete all that you servey
Legend!
The more of these adrift videos i watch the more i realize i would have been done with the expedition today the same day i started it if i had bothered to do some of the other objectives like the 5 ancient structures while i was doing other stuff now ive got a majority of phase 5 done and am struggle busing right through phase 4 oh well ill get it done tomorrow i guess lol
If you are still at rendezvous 5 don't forget to check the end of the guide to get your Synthetic life objective done easy! The rest of the objectives can be completed on most planets so while it seems daunting, you should do phase 4 and 4 fairly easy.
rfaster way finding them look for planet systems with the letter f in it... it indicates peculiar planets ( ie finned planet ) and youll find the syntetic life forms )
That's good to know+
Luck plays a part, but an easy way to complete Quantum Foam is to scan all creatures on a planet. A single bonus is often enough to complete the objective, and on some planets you can find all creatures close to your original landing spot. I probably wouldn't waste much time on the rare or hard to find creatures. But remember to turn in the bonus under discoveries if you manage to get 100% of the creatures on a given planet. I lucked out. Found all 8 creatures in a few minutes, and got a 2k bonus for getting 100%.
I didn't even think of that! Thanks for the great strat!
The part that annoys me the most is that using the signal booster for the Signs to Nowhere objective sometimes takes you to a trading outpost or comm tower. These don't count for the objective which means you're just wasting the surge batteries.
I found a few similar frustrations as well. Did you end up getting it sorted?
Great job, will be trying this soon.
Best of luck, Traveller!
Thanks mate.
You're welcome, traveller
I love this guide. I just wish we could section it into different parts so that I can go straight to where I need to be, because
That's good feedback. I'll try to separate it into chapters and add timestamps today. In the meantime did you find what you needed?
This expedition inspired me to finally uninstall this game. I'm so sick of purposely vague and confusing instructions. "Admist the stars" broke me. How am I supposed to figure out that I have to go to the back and craft something???? I would have never figured that out without a walk-through. I am so sick of this game hiding unobtainable items behind these tedious expeditions.
That's a shame but I feel your frustration. I've noticed a lot of objectives show up in each expedition as well. I hope you come back to the game when you're ready tho!
@@whatsitlikeau I’m just being a baby. I’m sure they will add something to pull me back in, but I have always struggled with completing expeditions. I refuse to look anything up until it’s too late.
@Ikeula75 I get that hahahaa. I think there will be a few more expeditions this year before they recycle them all
@Ikeula75 dude join my tag its aceintheair ( Ace in the air) I complete all the ones that come up by pure accident most of the time lol but I am pretty good at getting them done in at least 3 days depending on how much time I have to play. And everything in the game is possible to collect just have to know how to do it😊
Loved your guide. Despised this expedition.
What didn't you enjoy out of curiosity? I felt like it was hyped up to be completely alone in the universe but planets were teeming with life still. Would have been creepy if there was absolutely nothing
I’m so incredibly stuck, I don’t get this
Sorry for the late reply. I'm fairly active on here so feel free to ask me any questions and I'll personally guide you! I've done this expedition 3 times now
Thank you buddy I was having trouble with atlantedium
Glad you got it sorted! Stay safe, Traveller!
@@whatsitlikeau I can't find that system for it... hmmm
It is unreal to beat the expedition! I can’t go to the blue, red or white stars, because I don’t have drive, and I can’t craft the drive because no one sells it!
You should have your plans already from a previous quest reward. From memory it's the Space Station objective?
@@whatsitlikeau Having the same issue, I have the plans but no idea where to get Wiring Loom to make them
Wiring looms can still be purchased from abandoned stations. The trade terminals are hidden up the top through a hallway
@@whatsitlikeau Omg I didn't know it could still be bought thanks so much 🙏 Thank you for the great video too as well as the quick reply
No worries! It's a very different experience from other expeditions. Just a heads up there's a quest where I say to install a high frequency scanner in a Nautilus sub, just complete the "All you survey" milestone to get the plans for the scanner. No need to go to the Anomaly. Have fun!
I’ve been stranded on lapezuk for too long because there’s not trees so I can’t get deuterium can someone help?
Try putting Silicate Powder form the terrain manipulator (mine the ground) and Di Hydrogen in your personal refiner. Hope that helps!
thank you for this . Great video my dude .
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!
For some reason the game will not give me the advanced mining laser blueprint. I found my ship and everything, it's just telling me to install something I don't have
You do have to source the materials for it if that helps?
You need to redeem it from the expedition menu point
Yo can someone help me im still stuck on the its alive quest i still cant find the right blue star system plz help
Have you been to rendezvous 5 yet? It's at the end of this video but there's 2 planets really close to R5 that allow you to find them easily!
I finished it today
Congrats! Sean is already teasing something on Twitter so hopefully we see another expedition soon!
Thanks, it helped a lot! 💚🤗
I'm so glad! My son asked me to make him a guide so he could do this during school holidays and I never expected it to go off like it did!
Thanks a bunch!
You're welcome!
Are there any good tips on finding the sunken Freighter? I can'T seem to find one on any planet
Check the local teleporters....eventually, you WILL find a sunken freighter base.
Easiest way is to build a Nautilus submarine, install a high power scanner, press up on the dpad and scan for one
@@whatsitlikeautried 5 times. No freighter found. I am tired of crafting nautilus.
You only have to craft the base ince per planet to be able to summon it anywhere on that planet. Are you scanning by installing a high grade scanner, pressing up on the dpad, and then selecting freighter? I spent ages just using my normal scanner until I realised I needed the high power scanner. You normally need to research it but in this expansion you can build it as soon as you've built the Nautilus
I must have tried this 5+ times as well, do you need a certain depth of water as so many planets are shallow water. Also I read you need a system with a space station in order to locate one but so far still no luck (I am using the nautilus scanner btw)
I cannot find atlantideum. Whenever I do "Locate Substance" from the catalogue, it points out to a planet really really far.
Check on your galaxy map for any system that is marked as "Dissonant" this planets are loaded with altlantidium
@@whatsitlikeau This worked thank you!
Eyyy! That's amazing! See you among the stars, traveller!
Do I need the bones later for something? They take to much inventory space :(
Sell them for some credits! They aren't needed once you get the objective completed.
@@whatsitlikeau Thanks a lot! :3 great videos btw
@@Cheliz_Diaz Thank you so much!
Cant find copper on the starting planet its crazy can only find cursed dust
Should be copper everywhere! I would recommend restarting the expedition if thats the case. It might be a bug!
@@whatsitlikeau finished the expedition using the guide. Took me 30 mins (thanks). Took me 30 mins to find the copper and get back to the ship.
I can't find planets with bones💀
So helpful😑
Sorry about that, I've had this complaint before and will fix it next guide. To find planets with bones you can scan them from space and they will have "Ancient Bones" in the description and are found the same way buried technology modules are found.
I can't find the planets with high enough mountains to complete the "All That You Survey" part. I don't know which planets you mean that you were able to complete it. Which galaxy are they in?
Rendezvous Planets 2,3, and 5 all have high enough mountains. Just make sure the objective is selected for it to tick off!
Good vid bro 💯 I've subbed 👍
Thanks legend!
Hoped there would be a little more detail about finding planets with bones, such as a specific planet and where it is in reference to the rendezvous path. Maybe something to consider for future videos. Just saying "find a planet that has them" isn't much guidance.
Thank you for the feedback and I'll be sure to do that next time. I hope the rest of the guide was useful!
Came here just for help with the bones one. Wasn't much help unfortunately.
Sorry about that, I'll do better on my next guide. When you scan a planet, it will say "Burial Sites" the lines themselves are represented by yellow icons and you excavate them with the terrain manipulator.
Switchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Eyyy! I like this!
I cant find the second rondayvoue point, i c it on the galactic map, but cant find it after i warp there.
On the galaxy map, you can press left and right on the Dpad to change objective type, make sure it's set to "Expedition"
@@whatsitlikeau Got it.
Sick tutorial but how do you randomly craft a nautilus sub, like please ellaborate.
sorry about that! Next time i'll go into more detail. When harvesting the materials underwater, grab 100 salt, then press up on the D-pad to build the Nautilon chamber. If you've been following the guide, you would have unlocked the plans a couple of objectives ago! If you get stuck, I'm very active on this channel so reply to this with any questions and I'm happy to help out!
Great Walkthrough Thanks o7
Thank you! Hope it helped you get the hauler!
Could someone spell the name for the Dissonant Planet he mentioned? I checked the R2 system, but none of those planet names seem to me to match his pronunciation.
Sorry! I should have gone more in depth, and my accent is a bit off sometimes. There's no specific planet for the dissonant system, but there's a lot around. I found one in close proximity to R2, but you can find them everywhere by opening up the galaxy map and moving over systems to find one that says "Dissonant." Hope that helps and in my next guide I'll do some on screen text to help out!
@@whatsitlikeau The same happens to me. Now It is clear. Good job by the way. And. Thank you very much for your effort.
The system is called Anashi-Aeb
Why the hell am i stuck on the dereliction milestone. I made it wll the way to the last room and hot the bulkhead.
Did you map all the rooms with the objective selected?
I saw on another video that they had to extract nantes for it to register
I cant seem to complete the "all you can survey" mission. No mountains are anywhere near that high 😅
Bro what? How? pretty much every of the exoedition gathering points are on planets with huge mountains.
@@derunbeliebtesteveganerdeu6211 every planet I've been to had a max height of 500. I had to build stairs just to fix the issue.
@@S0n0fG0D now that you mentioned it. I saw a lot of people do that.
I wondered what the hell that was about.
I got that achievement by pure accident. Just followed the expedition gathering points and every planet with the huge worms had massive mountains.
I didn't know you could do that!
@@whatsitlikeau THEY ADDED THE BLUE EFFECT TO THE IRON VULTURE LETS GOOOOO!
Can I use my own ship and multitool?
I didn't try in either of my playthroughs, but in theory you can. You need to carry them across at the terminal and use nanites to duplicate them
I don't understand... You say with the selection of the second rendezvous point you can find a system that is dissonant and has the resources required to unveil.... the second rendezvous point
?!?!?!?
Nvm
Sorry I didn't' see this sooner. Did you get it sorted? If you get stuck on anything let me know and I'll do my best to help!
How do you find a planet with "low" boundaries that are needed for the Ghost in the Machine task? All the planets I visit seem to have boundaries "too high", hence no anomalies can be found via the signal booster.
Nevermind, found it. For anyone having the same issue: try searching in rendezvous systems.
Glad it got sorted!
My space station step won't proc. Anyone know why? I land there and get out and run all over and I dint get credit
Did you walk upstairs into the back room where the trade terminal is?
@@whatsitlikeau yes, I waled all over the space station and lights out never procs. Online / offline, landing saving reloading - nothing fixes it 😢
I'm not sure what's happening on your Expedition. Did you have any luck?
I cant seem to do the whispering eggs one, i collected them but it still says 0, i have collect about 34 eggs so far
So you have 34 Larval Cores in your inventory? You have to destroy the eggs and pick up the cores for it to register. I hope that helps
@whatsitlikeau i found out what the issue is, or i atleast fixed it. In the beginning when you said to lower the difficulty to make it easier besides turning off predator, it caused the bugs to not spawn and it wouldnt count towards the 0/16 eggs, i did have predators on when i collected the eggs, after putting everything back to the default settings the bugs started spawning and when i collected one it counted
@roundbenjamin12345 that's great news! Glad it's sorted for you! I hope the rest of the guide helps you smash this expedition!
Big question I play NMs on switch and I don’t believe derelict freighters work the same on the system. I watched videos and ppl say you get a signal thing, should build a terminal that I buy the design from the anomaly? I haven’t gotten the signal thing and I’ve done everything else in the expedition I’ve seen a freighter but it disappears
There's a mission which you have to find alien ruins or perhaps the sunken freighter that awards an "Emergency Signal Scanner" which you then use in your inventory while flying through space in pulse drive. You can also purchase a Signal Scanner from the abandoned space stations trade terminals, not the anomaly. Let me know how you go and if you get stuck I'm happy to start a new expedition and check
someone know what to do when you are stuck in the derelict freighter? i did restart 14 times and every time i fall through the floor and get stuck at some point...
I'm not sure on this one sorry. Perhaps leave that freighter and purchase an emergency scanner form a space station to try a new one? I have noticed the freighters have a lot of bugs!
@@whatsitlikeau thx i did a new one in another system and it worked without bugs... strange thank you
Glad it got sorted!
I cant seem to figure out how to upgrade my drives
Drive plans are rewarded when you first land at a space station so you don't need to buy them for this expedition. Hope that helps
Where do you pick up your transferred items when starting the expedition?
Usually at the console in the Anomaly. I'm not sure what restrictions are put on this one so it might not be accessible right away
Wtf is a surge battery and how do I get them?? Cannot find a communication tower and can't use my signal booster anymore... wtf do I do?
You should be able to craft a new signal booster by pressing D-pad up. Use it on a Rendezvous planet if you're not having luck on other planets. Let me know if this works for you!
how do i do the " Nameless History" milestone i go to the knowledge stones but it doesn't increase it at all
You need to find ancient ruins. Each ruin should have a triangular object that you interact with to mark it off your list. If you have the objective selected and use a signal booster, you should be able to search for them easily. Let me know if you get stuck!
@@whatsitlikeau thx, but i literally just finished the whole thing
My only problem is NOT having an Indium drive to get to BLUE stars......HOW do i get that drive ?
You get the plans very early on for that. You will have to install all 3 drives to get to a blue planet!
To add to what was said
You first build the Cadmium drive using Chromatic Metal (refined from copper), then youll mine some Cadmium on a red world, and use it to make your Emeril Drive, then fly to a Green Star, mine some Emeril to make your Indium Drive
Or you can spend probably more time looking for a Base on a Blue system
Whatever suits your playstyle
The first version is a life skill for any save you make in NMS
@@whatsitlikeau Strange, i played for 15 hours, finished all but the synthetic creatures and the freighter missions....NEVER got more than 1 Hyper drive upgrade.
Go to red sytems, itll save you time and resources instead of going to blue systems
How can i get condensed carbon to fix the personal refiner mk2 ?
Look for C+ Crystals with your visor. It can be a struggle early on
I went through the derelict freighter and did everything ,but nothing happen. I couldn't get the milestone complete at all. I don't understand it why i couldn't complete it at all. was hard doing this,
because I died. because of the aliens. And took a while to do this milestone.
I had the same issue and it turned out I only explored 8 of 9 areas. Did you get them all ticked off? You can always purchase a new scanned from any space station terminal and do it again. I always make sure my current phase objective is selected too. Hope that helps!
@@whatsitlikeau Here's a tip, after using your scanner and landing on the freighter...put the Scanner into your personal refiner....and you will not lose it, no matter how many times you try.
That's a neat trick!
@@whatsitlikeau i wasn't expecting alot of them in an area. thanks for the information
I am having problems finding the 2nd system and planet that has the one synthetic creature. I got the on in the Hihuiyu system.
I see you found them in another comment? If not let me know
OK, I have the expedition complete,, but one. It is a Small Voice. I have it highlighted and its says gaze toward the stars. 0-60s. But it does nothing. Am I doing something wrong?
@@cwbuckley4508 It needs to be done at night
Some planets you can see the stars in the day, which wont complete it
@@isty4491 Thanks
@@isty4491 OK, I figured it out. You have to be on a Planet at night and then it works. If you are in space it doesnt work. Thanks for the help.
Hi! Thank you for this video!
Where did you find this planet?
I need this!↓
1:08
I'm unsure sorry as this particular expedition is long over :(
Oh no! I made a mistake!
I wanted to say “this ship” not a planet😂 sorry…
Don’t you know this? I want to get this!
Ah hahaha. This was the reward from the previous expedition, I think it's based on the Razor Crest from the Mandalorian. On Switch you can't get it but on other systems you might be able to find a played to trade you one. Hope that helps!
@@whatsitlikeau thank you so much!
how do you get the indium drive for the blue star?!
You get warp drive plans from a previous objective. When I get home I'll find out which one and let you know
I spawned on a planet with literally nothing on it :(
No worms jumping around? The first planet should be fairly empty as the theme of the expedition is about being isolated. Let me know if anything spawns!
@@whatsitlikeau Yes, I figured it out, it's my first expedition so I didn't know how it worked, but thanks!
@skeletonhorse9369 glad you got it sorted!
For the love of me I can't find any excavation site, only buried technology modules. Even using that signal increment I can't find a fucking clue 💀
From space you should be able to scan planets and they will have a yellow indicator saying "Ancient Burial Site" or something similar.
@@whatsitlikeau that's it? Like, normal systems, abandoned systems, upgraded scan or what? I swear I haven't found any yet lol
@@precascer8221 Any systems. I found every few warps would have a planet that would have them.
Copper proving hard to find
It can be frustrating. The good news is that it's all over the starter planet! Use your visor to view and tag deposits. Unless you mean activated copper? You might have to do a few warps to find that!
Is Fathoms Below hard to achieve? Ive been cruising the deep sea but havent find a single crashed freighter
You have to install a high power scanner, then press down on the dpad, select scan, and select a freighter.
@@whatsitlikeau oh sorry forgot to mention that Ive been scanning for crashed freighter for awhile with my nautilon. It always says "No nearby building located" but Ive been scanning for almost an hour lol
@fresco65604 change to another planet in the same system. You should be able to summon the Nautilon without rebuilding the station
@@whatsitlikeau so what I did is that I went to space station then browse some underwater bases from other player and then I built a nautilon station nearby then BOOM I got the crashed freighter 1st try. Thanks for the amazing guide btw
@fresco65604 I'm so glad you got it sorted! I juts finished the expedition again on my Switch. The ship reward is so good!
How do I get more fuel for the Nautilus? I dont have the recipe to craft it and I haven't found a sunken freighter yet.
Same happened to me. I went to a different system and crafted a new chamber
@@whatsitlikeau I did this but it seemed to retain the old fuel count :(
@markhynes1940 in a completely different system? Like warped elsewhere? That's strange. It seems to be an oversight we can't unlock or crack fuel
So I just played through again on Switch... you can learn the fuel recipe from the Anomaly for 250 nanites. I apologise for the wrong answer before
@@whatsitlikeau Thank you for your responses and help, I figured that out since but thanks anyways :)
you didn't tell us the one thing I came looking for
should we take the freighter reword for Dereliction?
I say in the Video I recommend extracting nannites to go toward the "Quantum Foam" objective if you haven't already ticked that over. Hope that helps!
@@whatsitlikeau no.. no it doesn't, you didn't read my comment at all did you?
I'm not sure what you mean, sorry?
@@whatsitlikeau when we finish the Dereliction segment of the expansion we get a freighter as the reword,
should we take it or leave it?
this is really the first expansion I've played through so I don't fully understand how the outcome works when switching back the main character in the save.
@jakstrieder ah sorry for that misunderstanding! I accepted it as I started a fresh save for this expedition. On my main save on Switch when I do it, I won't accept it as I have a really nice pirate frigate. So I guess it depends on what you have in your main save!
Is there a way to customize the character you spawn as?
Once you can summon the anomaly I'm pretty sure you can change your appearance there.
I dont know what I missed, but how are we supposed to install lthe sonar thing in the Nautalis when there is no shop to buy the blueprint? Any clues would be much appreciated.
You will already have the blueprint from the quest rewards
@@whatsitlikeau Uh, yeah.... realised that after I made my post. Derp!!! I'll leave the comment just in case someone else doesnt realise they already own it :P
Hahaha don't worry, I legit flew into space and summoned the anomaly to find out I already had it! This Expedition does a lot of progression differently to the game and it threw me off a few times!
I'm stuck on "Sign's to nowhere" I should search base or another building?
Most buildings have the tiny radar array outside of them. If you fly around the planet surface, you will see house icons, land at them and press the radar array. The game should save and give you navigational data. Hope that helps!
@@whatsitlikeau Aaahh I see, I get it now, I really confused with this one 😂
Thank you for helping 🙏🏻
Youre welcome. Some of it is tricky! Hopefully my guide helps a little!
@@whatsitlikeau Hahaha yeah, expedition now kinda tricky for the mission 😂
do whe have to get all milestones ???
To finish the Expedition? Yes, all 5 stages need to be complete to collect the hauler.
@@whatsitlikeau dammit 😅
How do you get a high powered sonar? I cant find how to make it nir where to get the blueprints
In this expedition, you have the plans by default. I legit went up to the anomaly only to find out I had them all along
I don’t see the blueprint when I try to install into my nautilus thing.
What do I do?
Sorry for the late response, I got your original message a 1am Aus time. You need to complete the signs to nowhere objective first, which rewards you with Nautilon Advanced upgrades
Im just trying to earn nanites.....and its exhausting. I had an easier time find the synthetic creatures.
Whispering eggs work out well for this one. Put the larval cores in your refinery and you get 50 nanites per egg!
@@whatsitlikeau That helped so much haha. I never knew that, also all the living slime stuff as well. Thank you!
So glad that helped! Hope you enjoyed the expedition!
How can i get nanite? I want to sell sol modules but idk where
You can refine larval cores in your personal refinery if that helps!
Can't find a montain 1.600u tall 😭
2nd and 3rd Rendezvous points work for this! Just make sure you have the objective selected. From memory Rendezvous 5 also works!
@@whatsitlikeau It worked! Thank you, I was stuck! 🙌🏽
So glad you got it sorted!
Build upwards with steps
@merkyuk honestly, until I made this video I didn't know this was a thing! Thank you
I can't find any atlantideum, can you explain where the system I need is?
Sure! It's purple shards on the ground found only on dissonant planets (the ones with corrupted sentinels.) Mine them and also the bigger purple shards of radiance to get 2 objectives in one go!
@@whatsitlikeau You say to go to R2 and find Gadolsk, but don't show or say how to find it, I dont see it.
I'm sorry this was an oversight on my end as hyperdrives have different ranges. Any system marked as "dissonant" will do for Atlantadium
I created a base on a Corrupted world, it's simply called "Atlantideum" and should show up as you browse bases (hopefully)
I also had issues trying to find Gadolsk :(
U mean tri titanium?
Tritium for pulse engine fuel which you get from asteroids
Either my switch is messed up or Nintendo switch doesn't have this update, I got version 4.6.5 and literally just updated my game today
Switch is still on 4.6.5. I think it's realistic to see the update tomorrow or Wednesday going from previous releases. I do apologise for the mix up as I know this is a primarily Switch focused channel. I rushed ahead to make this guide on the Xbox version of the game but the methods will be identical.
HOW DO I FIND THESE DAMN EGGS
When you find infested outposts there are egg sacks. Destroy them and pick up the larval cores
@whatsitlikeau it's funny because I saw the eggs almost every step I took at the start now I can't find any 😂
@@whatsitlikeau do you have any idea where or how to find infested outposts?
I can’t find a planet with ruins on it for the life of me
If you select the objective, you then deploy a signal booster, then you can scan for the ruins. Most planets will have ruins so it should be a quick one to achieve.
@@whatsitlikeau I tried a dozen planets and none had the option to scan for ruins. I did find a random planet via a random portal eventually and was able to complete the milestone.
I found a boundary failure from the ghost in the machine milestone but it’s enclosed by a building/structure preventing me accessing it. What do I do with that?
It sounds lime you've had a rough time on this expedition! The boundary failure for me was out in the open so I'm not sure. Maybe some viewers might be able to give some insight?
Is that new ship in this expedition?
Yes! It's a really cool hauler based on the Mandalorian Razor Crest
These expeditions are so tedious. If it wasn't for videos lie this I wouldn't bother
I like them most of the time, but they do seem to recycle a lot of objectives. The rewards are worth it though!
@@whatsitlikeau That's how they suck you in, with sexy new ships that are impossible to resist!
Hahahah. I did them all on my Switch since this channel is primarily Switch focused. I'm glad we got another shot at the golden vector!
Where’s the f ing eggs lol
They are around the outposts and littered across worm ridden worlds. Destroy the eggs and pick up the green spiky "larval cores" for it to register
@@whatsitlikeau I found eggs but it says I need to summon anomaly get mind ark aI’m hard stuck 😭 went to anomaly and their is nothing ?
@@Atum1c If you head to the back of the anomaly where the portal is, there's a door in that room called the Prime Terminal. Use that and you get the recipe to craft the Mind Ark . You then have to go to a dissonant system and harvest some materials to complete the Mind Ark and then re-summon the anomaly and use the terminal with the Mind Ark.
@@whatsitlikeau thanks dude…appreciated
You're welcome. I'm fairly active here during the day (Australian time) so if you get stuck feel free to ask questions. Safe travels!
🥶🫡🫡🥶
/salute
If ur on pc do not bother as adrift is broken fully on pc...u will never receive a blueprint for metal sheets and hermetic seals,effectively locking any and all progression from the very beginning.
Oh wow that's a huge oversight! Have you tried restarting the expedition?
I'm on PC and can confirm this is incorrect.
Potentially a user skill issue.
@@ACloud27 Can confirm ive completed it on PC
You actually start with the ability to make Metal Plating and Hermetic Seal
You craft them by clicking an empty slot in your Exosuit or Starship Inventories
You skipped load out entirely. Idk what to bring.
This guide assumes a fresh expedition, nothing needed to bring.
Yo can someone help me im still stuck on the its alive quest i still cant find the right blue star system plz help
Responded on other comment!
I can’t seem to complete the Ghosts in the machine, whenever I go to a planet a pull out the signal booster it never says, “find anomaly” or whatever it’s meant to say. So any advice?
Make sure you have the objective selected for it to scan for the breach! As far as I know this can be done on any planet.
@@whatsitlikeau bruh I just tried it again and I realized I did even read the fucking options, man I’m slow af
The amount of times I did that to myself too! Especially with the height objective
