Last tip : Have fun and enjoy the game at your own pace. I play this game after a 12 hour work day , and it’s amazing. Finally came back after waiting 8 years.
Sound advice. Longtime player here. Further on the Terrain Modifier - if you are under heavy attack, a good move is to use the TM to dig a tunnel and then jump in. Whatever you are fighting will not be able to follow you in and, at worst, will just hang around the entry. Heal up, recharge everything., then either go out and face whatever it is, OR tunnel elsewhere.
Good tip for nanites. Setup a base next to runaway mould spawns. Teleport in and check it often. The mould will respawn every so often and can be refined into nanites.
@@ConCon yes unusual deposits. They are literally giant balls of mould that roll away when shot with the mining laser. You can get loads of mould destroying them. They are yellow icons so quite rare like the nav data and other icons, set up shop near one with a refinery and a teleporter. 😉
@@stepheng618 I think they scan as Curious Deposits with a two star yellow icon. Can often generate around 5000+ Runaway Mould per site (that's 1 Nanite per 5 Mould).
Additional tip: If you want to switch to another type of multitool (eg. you get a rifle) keep your old one for mining. Pistol multitools do less damage than other types, but provide more resources when mining. eg. I found an A-class rifle, and my original pistol gets me 20% more resources when mining. You can switch between them via the quick menu (under "Utilities" - the cogwheel).
Ok, watch this on my TV and a lot of very good advice, but I think you missed one really big one. Each time you visit a new system, goto Space Station (SS), then goto the mission counter, do not do the missions yet, collect ALL MISSIONS for : culling criters, sentenals and feeding critters. The game allows you to STACK those missions and stack away. As you get more shields, weapons ect then find: 1. A planet with hostile sentinels and plant a base computer, 2 find a planet with hurds of critters, big groups, plant a base there. Great if you can find in the same system. Keep stacking all those until you are confy and go on a culling spree. You will level up so fast!!!!! Thought that was an important one for newbees to know
If you place the upgrades (for anything - starship, multi-tool, suit) together - they get a minor improvement. You'll see this, when they become outline with a color. So that's actually the reason the scanner modules are outline yellow in tip 11 "supercharged slots"
For the Atlas Pass, get the recipe for the V3 Atlas Pass and craft one of those. The V3 pass includes the V1 and V2 passes as well and you only need 1 in your inventory.
Thank you so very much. I am also new with only 80 hours and it never once ding-donged in my obliviously empty skull that I could add more exosuit tech slots as well as the cargo slots at the same place! Never even came close to crossing my mind. Like I said, big empty galaxy between the ears, lol. Thanks!
Take Notes, like for real on a bit of paper, write down priorities, take note of Portal Glyphs, stick a base computer down. Do whatever you like, but always do the main quests. It can overwhelm some who are used to being pointed in a direction all the time. Cut Loose, have some strange times with a Pet or just build a beautiful base. Good Vid
A couple tips: you can buy suspicious modules from outlaw/pirate stations. And if you want to smuggle and avoid being caught, buy from outlaw stations, warp to a base or your settlement (hopefully in a wealthy system) and then warp to the space station.
Also, stack relevant upgrade modules next to esch other, for increased efficiency. For example if you have a bolt caster, stack the upgrades so that they touch, whether vertically or horizontally. The borders around each upgrade module will then be highlighted. That’s how you know you connected them successfully. Do this with your equipment.
I find killing sentinels and selling the modules you get a pretty good way to get nanites. Just find a random structure and aggro the sentinels, then chip away at them while hiding inside the structure
Here’s my tip from me a player who’s been here since game launch: Dont worry about the base the game makes you build for the tutorial. Just get 4 walls and the other few items to complete the quest. Then go find a GOOD planet to build a real base at . You can even delete the quest base right after u build it
Another tip for nanites is to scan all fauna on a planet. You'll get a good chunk of nanites from the discoveries menu (up to 3000 for a planet with a large amount of fauna). Combine that with the scanner upgrade, you're gonna be rolling in dough and nanites pretty quick.
@@carlgarland4175 no.. you get units when you scan A single new creature type.. if you get ALL of the creatures on a planet you get nanites.. you have to go to discoveries and check the list for the planet, at the top it either says "you have xx of xx Fauna scanned" or it says you got them all, click here to collect x,xxx nanites.. the more different species on the planet the more you get.
@@carlgarland4175 They are talking about the discoveries menu. You scan everything on the planet and receive units with your scans, then go to the discovery menu and upload your discoveries for nanites
@@carlgarland4175 If you get all the fauna on a planet scanned you can go into Discoveries for the planet, click on Fauna then get a Nanite boost for completion of the set. Units for each animal, nanites are a bonus for completion
Platinum and pungeum can be refined into nanites. You can also get nanites by trading upgrade modules that you don’t need at space stations. Kill sentinels, pick up the canisters that they drop. Sentinel glass shards often contain upgrade modules when broken down.
Here's the best tip. Start a new save with expeditions IF you have already completed the tutorial of the game or know how to play, starting a new save with an Expedition skips the tutorial and gives you a set of objectives. The current expedition (expedition 14) requires you to jump across systems and elliminate an invasive species among other things. Its basicly a set of missions that are really easy to complete and gives you a lot of rewards that skyrocket your progress. If you want to skip the earlygame almost entirely, expeditions are your best friends, they are not always available they are time limited events that are up for a month or two but new ones release regularly. the missions arent hard at all either, like for example from the current expedition there is, walk 1400 units in storms, kill 50 sentinels (Sentinels are total pushovers even in the early game), hit 4 targets with one bomb, kill 50 hostiles inside the gorilla exosuit (wich the current expedition gives for free with upgrades as a reward of another mission.) etc. etc.
Tip for the inventory: Navigation Data and the cartographer in the space station are the best option for new players, you trade Navigation Data for specific maps and detect crashed upgrades for expanding the inventory, you need to fix them , in 3 hours i had unlocked all slots in the exosuit
if you start a normal (or custom.. just NOT expedition) game the story gives you a LOT of blueprints for FREE, no spending nanites or even data to unlock stuff.. some have said you get just about everything, but i haven't got that far, because i started the expedition before i finished the story / mission line, which i somewhat regret and now started over, and will wait till the last community step is almost done and do it again with my new character. important tip, if someone offers you a free freighter, just say no... to the first one. you get better offers after.. (unless there is some weird glitch and the first one offered is an S class freighter)
@@briwanderz yes, you can unlock a fair bit by doing some of the side quests. You can easily save yourself over a hundred salvaged data and a couple thousand nanites this way.
2 notes here: 1.The product range of the upgrade vendors is not "random" btw. They will offer the same upgrades in the current system. If a vendor has for example an S-class hyperdrive upgrade, it will always be S-class in that system 2. If you follow the tutorial/quests, you'll unlock a lot of stuff basically for free. That'll save you a lot of nanites or other resources...
@@wingwing8559 It's hard to tell exactly. It's also been a long time for me, I'm playing since day one... I'd recommend to do them as they come along, but you don't have to. Just find your own pace. Note that some quests will only appear after you've reached certain milestones.
They refine in this order: Residual Goop > Viscous Fluid > Living Slime > Runaway Mould (all at 1:1). Then refine Runaway Mould to Nanites at 5:1. You can get a lot of this stuff from Damaged Machinery or the consoles from Abandoned Buildings.
thanks man just got no man sky yesterday 2.4 hours in and this would have been a major help i got spawned on a high radiation planet almost died in a storm only lived because i found a cave managed to get my ship fixed and made my way to a paradise world in system where i saved.
Awesome video. I really liked that this was a video with actual, helpful tips. Most videos just show how to take advantage of game mechanics. I enjoyed your video and look forward to seeing more.
Thanks for the video - I'm a new player (just started this past weekend) and you answered two questions for me. I had managed to find the Teleport Receiver for sale on a Gek world, but didn't realize the range was just 150u. Thanks for that clarification. The other was the AtlassPass. It makes sense it stays in your inventory as the crafting materials are a bit pricey to be consumed each use (not the Cu - but the blasted CPU).
👍 I enjoyed your 'introduction' video for new players. Simple, clear, and easy to follow. I just bought this game yesterday and already played 6 hours or so. It was a rough start as im not a skilled gamer, but the game held my curiosity enough to keep me engaged. I'll have to bookmark this video and refer to it. I probably should keep a notebook of tips handy too. I simply cannot remember all the tasks, inventory, what does what, etc
@G22865 I actually ended up removing it from my console a couple days ago. It's simply too complicated for me and a bit disorienting. It really bothered my eyes. It's a shame because it looks great, but I just couldn't get a grip of all the details, requirements, missions, etc. I'm a Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed player. They're easy for me to follow. No Man's Sky is beyond my capabilities.
@@tike2006 thanks for the honesty. My eyes struggle when there's lots of menus and things to read. Like you I want to pick up and play rather than have to study things to learn. I just did that with Elden Ring and dont wanna go through that again. I wanted No mans sky cus it reminded me of breath of the wild but if the exploration isn't the same I think I'll give it a miss especially if you're into mass effect but can't get into this.... I'm going to wait for reviews of light no fire and towers of Aghasba to get My botw fix Thanks
So if you have trouble getting money early on or you just don't want to spend all of it up on wiring looms, do the Nexus mission in the anomaly, that rewards you with 15 looms.
Tip from a console player, use keyboard and mouse on foot and gamepad for exocraft and ship. Gamepad has everything at your fingertips, and kB&m on foot gives you much finer control for combat, scanning and stuff like that
Hi I just started playing and I have a tip. The sentinels will attack you if you take items from relic sites. It took me an hour of trying to find out how make them leave me alone (there was no countdown timer or anything). Turns out it was bugged and I had to leave the game and come back. Normally you hide or leave the area, but if you leave atmosphere then it gives you a SPACE wanted level and you have to fight off aircraft (gota go to a space station to make them stop from what I hear).
For the Exosuit upgrade, I like to go to the cartographer in the space station and by like 20 drop pods coordinates. It is relatively cheap and quite fast as you can just warp there. That way, I can farm all of them and visit new planets without spending lots of units or warping (which some times is very repetitive). I also find it faster that way since you can find several in the same planet.
Tip Number 47: don't hold down the Starship weapons, you can tap the shoot button and they will never get heated, and you will not run the risk of cool down. 😂
What a helpful video. Wow, how many resources did I waste? Purple items? Who would have thought recycling slime can get you nanites? My god, I love this game but being new to it there is so much to learn but that is part of the fun. Still, I missed out on a lot, oh well. LOL
Wow! That's a really good guide. Full of helpful content and presented in a very easy to follow way. Thanks a lot. This will really help me out! Many greetings from Germany! *like*
I kept not using the scanner module telling myself that 11,461% wasn't worth the space. Imagine the look on my face when he read it out loud that it was 11 THOUSAND and I realized that 11,461 was the American notation and it wasn't the same as 11.461.....
@10:23 i would of also mentioned to use the terrain manipulator because there is always a buried module around the area as well you can even see it marked on your screen in the video!
Holy shit. Hooooly shit. This was so very helpful. Each one of these things are news to me save for the npc language skill. One minor correction on that front - the "Visited" designation only means the npc has been spoken to, so I've run into dumb noob moments where I forgot to learn the language and nearly overlooked npcs because I'd previously spoken to them and given them a gift or just left the conversation without interacting. Anywho tysm this video seems almost tailor made for my level of experience with the game, so target audience reached!
you should try construct legs and chest with the chitin armour, geometric cape, and broodmother maw its my fav customisation and the atlas staff looks really good with it
Best tipp: play the main mission. 2nd best: play the main mission. Last tipp: Just play the game and don't run for "best weapon/ship/freighter" or "get rich glitch" videos. Play it. Enjoy it. Don't be a y2k-gamer.
I just started playing the game and idk what it was that I randomly picked up but I went to the space station to sell it and it gave me 300 million units and idk what to do with all of it😂
I just began this game and it seems I've hit a glitch roadblock that can't be undone. I progressed the storyline to the anamoly and I am to meet Helios to give him a data pack or something, but nothing I do in the game triggers the option to give him the data pack. So I am stuck just exploring, and quite honestly, losing interest in playing the game further.
So when it comes to scanner modules etc if they are not a class do we not buy them period and just go without? Like I plan to stay in one system for a long time grinding the planet so idk when I’ll see another if the one at my station doesn’t have a class modules
As fun as grinding dialog to learn a language is, whats the actual point of learning words? Ditto with increasing your standing with gifts. I'm playing for about 30 hrs and it's so grindy, just running jumping zapping rocks, talk to 15 NPCs, inventory management hell. Not sure what the actual fun gameplay loop is? Pressing S is just the brake isn't it? I know going slower helps you to not shot past someone but it also makes you a sitting duck. The way you describe it is like its some kind of trackign feature. It's just slowing down.
Ive been scanning everything but have never gotten 300k for anything even rare creatures. What mode are you playing on and does that make a difference in any way as ive only been playing for a week.
I couldn’t find this online. I am playing on a Mac. So, it’s PC controls. I have this yellow orange grid box where a Copper deposit was. How do I get these grid boxes to go away?
Technology slots in your exosuit are at the top. Bottom are storage inventory slots. Both of them can be increased by purchasing "exosuit expansion modules" from any space station or vendor. or u can get them with multiple ways which I'll let u figure that out urself. :)
@@backlashx8758 yeah I just didn’t realize I could change the slot that originally got highlighted when you go to upgrade. I just figured it chose for you. Smh
Under options menu, there should be single or multiple objectives listed under main objectives section. And u can also track them. Always read the objectives since that can give u a clue on what to do next
Hello, need some help. I found a ship crashed I claimed it. But i didnt have the mats to repair it. So now, He still is crashed, And... i might have forgotten to place something to find it when i come back.. Any tips ? To find a ship i own, but which cant fly so i cant teleport/call it.. I'm on the same planet. Do i really just have to randomly fly around to find it ? I know it was for a quest, but now the quest is done, so there is nothing to show where it was. Thanks a lot
@@charlene2789 np ^^. Found a way, but still thank you. Hope it can help other The thing is i just claimed it. So it cant fly and cant be called from anywhere (I first didnt know about the menu) And then i found you can still call a "broken" ship in the anomaly
@@everquestfan When u are in starship flying around, u xan bring up the options menu at the bottom of the screen. In there's an option to "choose galaxy map"

Last tip : Have fun and enjoy the game at your own pace. I play this game after a 12 hour work day , and it’s amazing. Finally came back after waiting 8 years.
Same, coming back. Try permadeath :3
I just recently came back and I'm having a blast, though playing in VR was truly breathtaking
I'm also 3 hours in again after leaving it 8 years ago
Just started today was supposed to start 8 yrs ago lol its a dope game so far
Im also came back the game is different now and relaxing never boring , you always have something to do , and I don’t touch the main history yet
Sound advice. Longtime player here.

Good tip for nanites. Setup a base next to runaway mould spawns. Teleport in and check it often. The mould will respawn every so often and can be refined into nanites.
They spawn? As a resource to mine?
@@ConCon yes unusual deposits. They are literally giant balls of mould that roll away when shot with the mining laser. You can get loads of mould destroying them.
They are yellow icons so quite rare like the nav data and other icons, set up shop near one with a refinery and a teleporter. 😉
@@stepheng618 I think they scan as Curious Deposits with a two star yellow icon. Can often generate around 5000+ Runaway Mould per site (that's 1 Nanite per 5 Mould).

Another Tip : Save those slime that you find early on for late game. Can be refined for nanites or fuel for Sentinel ships via pugneum.

Normally you hide or leave the area, but if you leave atmosphere then it gives you a SPACE wanted level and you have to fight off aircraft (gota go to a space station to make them stop from what I hear).

I started a second game due to getting a little lost in what to do
Sounds like Colin Robinson from What We Do In The Shadows is playing NMS. My favorite character from the TV series😊
10:50 I've been selling my junk this whole time!! I had no idea you could make it into nanites what the heck
For the Exosuit upgrade, I like to go to the cartographer in the space station and by like 20 drop pods coordinates. It is relatively cheap and quite fast as you can just warp there. That way, I can farm all of them and visit new planets without spending lots of units or warping (which some times is very repetitive). I also find it faster that way since you can find several in the same planet.

Solidly useful guide, thanks! Really well explained - I’m only a few hours in so this was really helpful.
200 hours in and I still learned stuff. Thanks man 😂
This was super helpful. Cheers bud!
You're welcome! Enjoy the game!
Tip Number 47: don't hold down the Starship weapons, you can tap the shoot button and they will never get heated, and you will not run the risk of cool down. 😂
What a helpful video. Wow, how many resources did I waste? Purple items? Who would have thought recycling slime can get you nanites? My god, I love this game but being new to it there is so much to learn but that is part of the fun. Still, I missed out on a lot, oh well. LOL
Wow! That's a really good guide. Full of helpful content and presented in a very easy to follow way. Thanks a lot. This will really help me out! Many greetings from Germany! *like*
You're very welcome!
If you speak to the NPCs again you can practice their language and you can get gifts and status upgrades
It's just my first day but I learned that too. Talk to them at least twice.
Nice video it helped me a lot! I started 2 weeks ago and i was always thinking that i was missing something and i figured out the issues thankyou!
I kept not using the scanner module telling myself that 11,461% wasn't worth the space. Imagine the look on my face when he read it out loud that it was 11 THOUSAND and I realized that 11,461 was the American notation and it wasn't the same as 11.461.....
@10:23 i would of also mentioned to use the terrain manipulator because there is always a buried module around the area as well you can even see it marked on your screen in the video!
Holy shit. Hooooly shit. This was so very helpful. Each one of these things are news to me save for the npc language skill. One minor correction on that front - the "Visited" designation only means the npc has been spoken to, so I've run into dumb noob moments where I forgot to learn the language and nearly overlooked npcs because I'd previously spoken to them and given them a gift or just left the conversation without interacting. Anywho tysm this video seems almost tailor made for my level of experience with the game, so target audience reached!
Thanks man I’m a noob at this game for some reason
Brilliant, informative video. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
you should try construct legs and chest with the chitin armour, geometric cape, and broodmother maw its my fav customisation and the atlas staff looks really good with it
Awesome video. Really useful
Best tip is to make your only object at the start to get the advanced mining laser
This is great. Thankyou!
Thank you! Awesome vid
Best tipp: play the main mission.
2nd best: play the main mission.
Last tipp: Just play the game and don't run for "best weapon/ship/freighter" or "get rich glitch" videos. Play it. Enjoy it. Don't be a y2k-gamer.
Thanks for the great video!
Thank you. Very helpful.
I have waited for the day you upload a NMS video
Hahaha hope you enjoy it then
Great guide thanks
Im back i haven’t played since outlaws and solar ships dropped. Im pumped to jump back in i forgot alot lol
I just started playing the game and idk what it was that I randomly picked up but I went to the space station to sell it and it gave me 300 million units and idk what to do with all of it😂
Very helpful 👍🏼
New player here. How do you get that style of exosuit that your character is wearing in the video?
I just began this game and it seems I've hit a glitch roadblock that can't be undone. I progressed the storyline to the anamoly and I am to meet Helios to give him a data pack or something, but nothing I do in the game triggers the option to give him the data pack. So I am stuck just exploring, and quite honestly, losing interest in playing the game further.
So when it comes to scanner modules etc if they are not a class do we not buy them period and just go without? Like I plan to stay in one system for a long time grinding the planet so idk when I’ll see another if the one at my station doesn’t have a class modules
As fun as grinding dialog to learn a language is, whats the actual point of learning words? Ditto with increasing your standing with gifts.
I'm playing for about 30 hrs and it's so grindy, just running jumping zapping rocks, talk to 15 NPCs, inventory management hell. Not sure what the actual fun gameplay loop is?
Pressing S is just the brake isn't it? I know going slower helps you to not shot past someone but it also makes you a sitting duck. The way you describe it is like its some kind of trackign feature. It's just slowing down.
Ive been scanning everything but have never gotten 300k for anything even rare creatures. What mode are you playing on and does that make a difference in any way as ive only been playing for a week.
Huge help
Hi thanks for the video i started NMS for the first time a week ago how do i get the supercharger slots for my weapon?
Son of a… I’ve been using the big radius for resource harvesting -_-
concon my buddy how are you bro
I couldn’t find this online. I am playing on a Mac. So, it’s PC controls. I have this yellow orange grid box where a Copper deposit was. How do I get these grid boxes to go away?
Wish this game was MMo
Ugh I didn’t realize I could choose a technology spot for expanding inventory. Bummer
Technology slots in your exosuit are at the top. Bottom are storage inventory slots. Both of them can be increased by purchasing "exosuit expansion modules" from any space station or vendor. or u can get them with multiple ways which I'll let u figure that out urself. :)
@@backlashx8758 yeah I just didn’t realize I could change the slot that originally got highlighted when you go to upgrade. I just figured it chose for you. Smh
Others tell it's newbie guide then tell a harry Potter story in 10mins, 😅
You gave away your nationality when you said that scanning that creature gave you a certain amount of "rand" 😂
Oh lol I didn't even realize I said that xD
Ive taken the "just have fun" bit too far, cant locate where im supposed to go for main story quest
Under options menu, there should be single or multiple objectives listed under main objectives section. And u can also track them. Always read the objectives since that can give u a clue on what to do next
Hello, need some help.
I found a ship crashed
I claimed it.
But i didnt have the mats to repair it.
So now,
He still is crashed,
And... i might have forgotten to place something to find it when i come back..
Any tips ? To find a ship i own, but which cant fly so i cant teleport/call it..
I'm on the same planet.
Do i really just have to randomly fly around to find it ?
I know it was for a quest, but now the quest is done, so there is nothing to show where it was.
Thanks a lot
huhh I'm late but if you claimed it, you can summon it from the quick menu, along with all of your vehicles, ships and everything
@@charlene2789 np ^^. Found a way, but still thank you. Hope it can help other
The thing is i just claimed it.
So it cant fly and cant be called from anywhere
(I first didnt know about the menu)
And then i found you can still call a "broken" ship in the anomaly
This game is 23 bucks right now.i'm tempted,but it seems intimidating.
Every time I use the jet pack Mele boost my game gets stuck in first person mode and I have to restart 😔 also on series x
YOU CAN MELEE ATTACK?
What armor is thatttt
I think i used to make chlorine to sell it?
HeHe "46000 RAND"
Jy het 46000 Rand gesê?1!? Are you a fellow south african no man sky player?
I need a quest to guide me to my quest location lol. says to look on galaxy map wtf help?
@@everquestfan When u are in starship flying around, u xan bring up the options menu at the bottom of the screen. In there's an option to "choose galaxy map"
@@backlashx8758 Yea my bad. The Galaxy map doesn't show quests?
8:15 46k Rand? 😎
Really enjoying this game, only 2 weeks into playing.
Sorry lol thats the currency here in South Africa.
@@ConCon Haha yeah it was a knowing 😎 I enjoy finding SA creators, I'm from SA but living in UK atm.
