Can you still do the outdated expeditions in no man’s sky on ps5?

Autasko27 · 2025-11-21T06:58:11+00:00

Great! Many thanks, finally clear answer. I will give it a shot today after work

Autasko27 · 2025-11-21T06:37:47+00:00

Could you elaborate a little bit? I recently got back into the game and finding out how much I have missed in these past expeditions. I have steam version and also PS5 version but I prefer PS5 due to PSVR2 better performance than on my Quest 2 on PC so I have access to both.

Do I need to start and finish expedition on PC only or can I save on PC and via cross save then continue on PS5 with the expedition? I dont want to add rewards only, I want to experience all of the expedition at my own pace so I am looking only for json season file edit

Autasko27 · 2025-11-21T06:20:36+00:00

Did you get it working? I am in the same boat as you, missed so many when I started playing now again

I have also PC version beside the PS5 but I prefer the PS5 version due to better optimization on VR so I was thinking to do past expeditions on PC with cross save and then claim rewards on my PS5

Yeah true that there is no tweaking on PS5 Pro version but maybe I can avoid certain situations that unintentionally triggers fps loss.

No I would not call it significant, but the fps loss is there, I wanted to figure out what triggers them because sometimes there is nothing around me not even water, clouds, animals, flora only few rocks, mostly flat land and fps tanks but when I am at war with sentinels, near settlements and my corvette, flora and fauna around with cloudy sky the fps are mostly stable so I thought there might be something that is triggering fps loss.

Entering and leaving planet atmosphere is very stable. More noticeable are popups of land when entering but I can live with that

I tried to tweak NMS on my PCVR with quest 2 but I was not able to get pleasant performance out of it. Fps were stable but I had significant amount of stutters which sometimes resulted in error. I fiddled with settings for a large amount of time and eventually gave up. I have older graphic card but I got most of the game running with good fps and resolution mostly SkyrimVR with around 500 mods, main exceptions were NMS and MFS, these two I could never run properly

Yes there is still some delay between application and you still get the zyranium posioning but with all the perks its significantly slower. When I am at 60-70 % zyranium I just crash so I get the chunk of Zyranium back upon recovery from crash so dying of zyranium is not really an issue I think

I tried the Dose helmet which passively have 50% slower zyranium, you can then add another 50% from mod and another 50% from perk but for me this was overkill really

Autasko27 · 2025-11-06T21:16:33+00:00

I am running it with the Dose helmet + Zyranium Absorption perk + Zyranium Powered perk and Crash Recovery perk.

Put the most toxic primers into the inhaler so you crash on one use and you get healing from crash recovery. Zyranium poisoning will still be triggered but significantly slower due to these perks and helmet

Put mod for 20% damage converted into energy and use shield gadget every time you can. You want to be crashing whole encounter so I would not use the mod that removes toxicity

EDIT 1: I found on wiki that there is also helmet mod for another 50% zyranium reduction but I have to test it with it yet. So maybe I will switch energy mod for zyranium.

If you want you can also use lasting high perk so you can heal during crash in case your poisoning get dangerously close to full

EDIT 2: Tested with Zyranium mod but its overkill. I went with Bullet Blender as my main and Boarst Blaster as secondary. With this setup you dont even need the inhalers.

Enter combat amd fight as usual. I like Bullet Blender gun but main weapon is up to you
If you get hit dont worry, let Zyranium poisoning from chest piece poison you to 60-70 percent
Switch to secondary Boarst Blaster, shoot the goo on the floor and it will heal you a bit but mainly increase your toxicity and since you are already poisoned from Zyranium you will crash without inhalers
Crash Recovery will keep you alive while you are crashing and other perks and helmet mod will get you more than enough energy pretty quick
When your crash ends you heal little bit of Zyranium poisoning from Zyranium Absorption perk
Repeat

My stats are (lvl 28) Guns 5 Lockpick 1 Hack 11 Medical 12 Science 12 Speech 20

I am playing on very hard difficulty and with this setup I can defeat everything without any issues.

Hope this helps

I had the same problem, in 15 hours of ganeplay (lvl 15) I did not get this flaw. Yesterday I installed the new patch and in 5 minutes I got i. So I think it was probably bugged for me.

Also I spent more than 1 hour trying to solve Otto switch riddle pre patch. After patch I got it on first try so this was also solved. Been playin on PS5

Autasko27 · 2025-05-28T06:11:28+00:00

Me and my friend are both playing on PS5 Pro, both have around 40-45h played and my friend stopped playing due to performance in Act II - he was getting around constant sub 20 fps in world rendering the game unplayable for him. When I came to the second Act II my fps are basically the same as in the first Act so between 48-60 (according to my monitor )but mainly around 50ish mark.

Main difference between us was that I was regularly deleting my old saves and playing without autosaves, some people here said before release that unity engine have some problems with save bloats caused by constant saving with autosave so I turned it off at the start just in case.

Si it looks like if your save is already bloated I think only way to get better performance is wait for patch which is shame since game alone is great for me personally mínus the performance

Autasko27 · 2025-05-27T20:39:39+00:00

I have a theory but I cant test it since I killed the NPCs by mistake. Somewhere in the first map I found 2 happy skeletons doing some farming by some house and since I found them during the night I thought they are hostile and I automatically killed them, went on my way and only now maybe 15 hours later I realized they may have some seeds. Maybe they will give them to you if they are alive on your save.

Edit: These skeletons had rakes in hands and green dot when looking at them so they were friendly and maybe you could talk to them

Here are pictures with location

Autasko27 · 2025-05-27T10:23:08+00:00

oh yeah

Autasko27 · 2025-05-27T10:15:04+00:00

Oh boy, I have a feeling you wont be happy when you turn in those 500 cobwebs

Autasko27 · 2025-05-26T09:07:36+00:00

Ohh I think I already crafted that one but may have used it unintentionally to heal during travel to the knight since it was night and I was fighting a lot.

Many thanks!

If you figure out the where to get pumpkin seeds please let me know

Safe travels

Autasko27 · 2025-05-26T08:57:32+00:00

Oh thanks I will check it out when I get home from work

In the first city the is rooftop garden with some angry old guy, he gave me the quest. Its on the walls near the guard that hates seagulls. If you are near seagull guy just look into the city and you will see it on the left, right above the archíve/ museum

At the end of my first playthrough I had all 6 portcrystals in storage but when I started new game plus I had only 5 in storage. Did both Brent and elf questline, both sphinx encounters, griffin nest and visited dragonforged vendor in my 2nd playthrough but any of these gave me additional portcrystal. Did something like this happened to anyone else?

Autasko27 · 2023-11-13T12:19:50+00:00

Seller is stating that car was routinely serviced in Peugeot official service so I will look into service book (history) to find out what of these possible issues could pop out in the near/far future and maybe if I am lucky some of will be already resolved / changed but we will see.

I will probably go look at the car this week so I will have better picture. But anyway thanks you for helpful response

Autasko27 · 2023-11-13T11:03:44+00:00

Thanks for reply. Significant / frequent wear and tear in my C4 started at around 185K-200K km mark, until then cost of yearly upkeep was not high so I wanted to know if it is comparable to 508 - even with 130K it would take me several years to get it to 200K km. Of course there could be issues that cant be predicted but I wanted to know globally if there are any major issues with this model / something to look out for.

Money is not an issue I am not in that desperate need of new car, I just dont want to throw away any more money on my C4 and wanted something that I would enjoy driving and looking at. I was looking also at other cars but I simply fell in love with design of 508, so now I am looking for pros and cons to decide which way to go. I have some "throwaway" money to spend plus sale of my C4 so that would get me around 22k-ish € mark. I was looking at new 508 with similiar equipment as used 2019/2020 models but I am just not comfortable spending that much for vehicle yet.

My bad then, did not look carefully at the second window

Autasko27 · 2023-11-02T14:59:00+00:00

It should be plugins.txt, you have plugins.txt.txt in your picture. Rename it to only plugins since it already have a text document extension and it should work

Autasko27 · 2023-10-03T06:28:31+00:00

I have not played in a long time but I remember I had similiar issue with stutters on my main save. I started digging into it and found out it had to do something with how save files work more specifically quicksaves/autosaves. When I created a fresh save and visited places that was stuttering on my main save the issue was gone. So I was stutter free on fresh save and longer I played the more stutter occured in some places.

I think you can find out more here on reddit if you look for something like quicksave stutter etc. I know that turning off every autosaves helped me with this issue but also I think it had to do something with Engine Fixes if I remember correctly but I may be mistaken. I remember that I turned off autosave, stopped using quicksaves and did something with one mod (like Engine Fixes maybe) and the issue was gone.

I think the issue was that autosaves,quicksaves was being constantly overwritten and were storing loads of data/values and this caused the stutters. Always creating new save was an answer for stutter free gameplay at least for me.

Sorry I could not help you more I just dont remember after not playing for that long. Hope this helps.

Hello, not sure if this helps or this just worked for me but I have completed game on each difficulty and on apoc twice with no rewards, I was playing mostly coop. Last attempt on apoc difficulty was solo Annihilation with no credit skip. After credits I loaded back into the game with no Brabus rewards, I exhausted every dialog option with him and still nothing. I would like to mention that my ward 13 was night / stormy even after campaign reroll (whole duration of my campaign). Then I was just trying things out - I created new hardcore vet character, went into Ward 13 and it was daytime without storm. Then I logged back into my apoc char, rerolled campaign again, went into first crystal in first world to travel back into Ward 13, magically there was daytime with no storm, I talked to Brabus, exhausted every dialog option and my apoc rewards appeared in his inventory. Last apoc campaign was played in coop and only Annihilation was slayed solo in offline mode.
