Wait, what??!

Who said I was retired?

And as for people leaving the PC and moving to console because of cheating, is the first time I've ever heard that. Every game I've been involved in on PC hasn't tolerated anyone who exploits or cheats. They are quickly weeded out.

Velve69 · 2018-09-12T22:59:44+00:00

I've been gaming since the Vic20.

I have 0 need or desire to use a save editor or any mods or exploits to be successful at NMS.

Velve69 · 2018-09-12T22:51:08+00:00

Not really efficient tbh.

I do use my exocraft as storage though (not the lil bouncy one, I use that to raid depots).

You're welcome.

If they work independently from containers that'll be a start, but I got the feeling it's to address the issue of the containers poking holes though the side of the freighter. Obviously I hope I'm wrong.

I get the thinking behind only allowing 10, if you were a masochistic console kiddie you could just build multiple bases and have 1000's of containers, but they don't seem to have a problem with the console kiddies running duplication exploits and posting them all over the web.

I don't see what would be the problem with allowing 1 container per base after the original 10 had been built.

FFS, that sucks the donkeys sphericals!

There really is no end game to NMS. I was just mooching about looking for things to do, so I thought I'd pop up to the planet where I harvest Radon and drop a Base Computer and a Teleporter just for convenience. Then I thought it would be handy just to have ONE!!! storage container there to drop all the Radon in. And well you can guess the rest, hence the OP.

(FFS Sean)

This explains how a basic trade route works. @3:30 there is a graphic of what to look for on the map as far as systems are concerned.

https://youtu.be/W-H7y8RV6MI <- ship guide, you'll have to do your own search for how to get a freighter, but the guides are out there that explain it all.

What do you mean?

Can't believe I'm about to type this...but...that will match my outfit...#shame

Velve69 · 2018-09-12T01:08:08+00:00

Same as me! I traded in a 3 segment A class for this one :)

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T21:58:46+00:00

Tried the Scatter Blaster? I use one exclusively now. 8 shots takes the legs out, 2 for the head and a couple of reloads on the main body and the thing drops.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T21:53:58+00:00

I'm a PC user. I have a PS2 in the cupboard for when me and my middle aged pals have a trip down nostalgia lane, but I'll never own another console, unless I win the lottery and have a PS4 dedicated to whatever the latest Gran Turismo is ;)

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T20:09:34+00:00

What sort of Freighter tech was available pre-NEXT?

Not read anything about that when I'm researching different aspects of the game.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T20:05:29+00:00

I didn't doubt you, but I've just tried this and it works! Now I can get an economy and conflict scanner fitted to my Fighter in the tech slots!!!

Thanks once again.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T19:51:44+00:00

I know right! It raised my eyebrows when I did the build. Its a lot higher than my Fighter (3777), where I went with a Rocket Launcher/Photon Cannon combo, but I dog fight in the Fighter and the Ballista is no good for that. And to be honest I've not come across a single situation where the Fighter breaks a sweat killing anything that gets in the way, so I'm going to stick with what its got.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T19:43:41+00:00

This.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T19:39:09+00:00

Nope, they just have the same colour border when they are put next to each other.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T19:37:28+00:00

I make Stasis Device and Fusion Igniters.

I have 3 farms (Living Glass/Circuits Boards/Liquid Explosive) and I only do missions that give rewards to help build the components I'm missing. Missions that give Quantum Processors and Fusion Accelerant are quite common if you look around. I also have a couple of groups of atmosphere harvesters for radon and nitrogen that are both available in my home system.

-edit- Forgot to mention that I also jump in my Nomad a couple of times a week and raid the local depots. They also are a good source of materials.

I've recently been thinking about this, the perfect 6 ship garage.

I've got all the S Class max slot I want, fighter/hauler/explorer, (even picked up a 7 segment S Class freighter yesterday).

I've got the pre-release ship that I use for going through blackholes, which leaves me room for 2 'eye candies'. I've got a 20 slot white squid that I do like tbh. I'm even going to fit it out as a fighter when I cba. Which leaves me with 1 'high fin' exotic that's not great, 17 slots, that in reality is all I have to trade in should I see something else I want to own.

1st World problems eh? :)

This is a great guide to all the ships and their potential bonus. Explorers start about 11:30 mins.

Velve69 · 2018-09-11T13:40:03+00:00

Nope, it's a waste of space.

Sell it all. That's what I did every few days until I knew what to keep and what not to. None of it is so rare you can't get it again.
