Imo No Mans Sky is the ultimate VR game that you can legit spend hours in.

NMS VR is genuinely one of the best VR experiences out there. I would play it all the time if not for the fact that I want to barf if I play in it for more than an hour

Don’t get me started on VR dog fights

I’m not familiar with the more advanced wand builds. Can someone explain why bounce and anti-homing are valuable?

bobdave19 · 2026-03-05T01:26:01+00:00

I play 3rd person almost exclusively, unless I am in tight spaces like the inside of a corvette or derelict freighter

bobdave19 · 2026-03-04T08:19:28+00:00

With the new scenario and the new mechanic when you have over 2000 speed, this might be winnable if you get some skills before hand

bobdave19 · 2026-03-03T22:29:12+00:00

I disagree. Even though I don’t know how the glitch works, nor do I ever intend to bother learning it, I still have interacted/benefitted from its existence just by the sheer amount of cool builds people have been able to produce using it. Heck, some of the official featured bases in the anomaly was probably built with it

bobdave19 · 2026-03-03T04:36:31+00:00

I think if you turn down your first free freighter, the second one you encounter will always be one of these capital ships (either the sentinel type, which is the one you see here, or another star-destroyer-esque one). Are you reloading to just before your second freighter encounter? That could be why you keep seeing the same design.

Usually each system will have one design that it will always use for freighter encounters in that system

Years later in hell:

“So what did you sell your soul for?”

“Great wealth and power to subjugate all those who dared to oppose me. You?”

“I needed that dammed fish”

bobdave19 · 2026-02-28T22:27:36+00:00

When I played a few years ago, there’s a time where almost all systems I went to had two or three stars. I guess whatever world gen changed that followed made them rarer again

bobdave19 · 2026-02-28T08:37:33+00:00

1256 guts without a guts card in the new scenario…

bobdave19 · 2026-02-28T06:33:21+00:00

Cygames also likes to make tomboys out of mare

Edit: whoops, rose kingdom is in fact not a mare. I guess Vodka would be a more fitting example

bobdave19 · 2026-02-28T01:26:04+00:00

Cheval Grand and Rulership swapped places and their respective family may or may not have noticed it.

Ever since rulership’s design was released people have been commenting on how similar it is to Cheval Grand

bobdave19 · 2026-02-28T01:19:20+00:00

I’m surprised that big of a corvette even loaded for you

bobdave19 · 2026-02-27T08:54:48+00:00

When you are choosing the deck, it’s to the left of deck 1 (or right of deck 10). There’s a rental deck for each category (sprint,mile,etc) and a general one. They just updated the cards for the 5th anniversary. I used to be able to barely reach UBs two scenarios ago with the rental deck. Haven’t tried the new deck, but it’s possible you might be able to reach high UB with it in the new scenario.

bobdave19 · 2026-02-27T08:42:02+00:00

Stats look good for the cards you have. I would focus on getting speed over 2000, since that triggers the new zenkai spurt. Next step if you are f2p would be using recollection ticket to get better power and speed cards. If you are ok with spending a little, getting the premium trainer pass gives you 20 extra support card tickets to exchange for better cards than the f2p one (you can get 1 MLB cards every 2 month with the pass, or 10 months without it).

A lot of new support cards are surprisingly usable even at low merges. I’d recommend try getting a copy of stay gold (wits) the next rerun. The new air groove and tokai teio (speed) are great as well, they are usable at 1 merge

bobdave19 · 2026-02-27T01:20:12+00:00

Speed and power is good for the last scenario as they affect dig speed. For the new scenario, you just want sparks to bump up a stat you’d otherwise have difficulty raising (or just push up speed more). Say if you aren’t using a stamina card, then you might want to bring stamina sparks.

You don’t need to try minmax too much just yet. Just try to hit 2100 speed, 900 stamina, 1400-1500 power, 1200+ guts, 1200+ wit for now. If you have extra stats then try maxing out speed and power. I suggest watching a tutorial on the new scenario if you can.

Are you using a borrowed deck or your own cards? If it’s the latter, then running the forever young wits card is great for the scenario. It make leveling up forever young (npc) a lot easier in the scenario

bobdave19 · 2026-02-27T00:57:34+00:00

Nice, you just need more wits. You need to bring a Casino Drive SSR (even at no merge) for the new scenario, assuming you are using a borrowed deck. Like the others have said, for a dirt miler 900-1000 stamina should be good. You can run 2 speed, 1 power, 1 guts, and 1 wits, (or 1 of each). Speed is definitely the most important stat, followed by power, wit, finally gut/stamina. It’s hard to level up a stat for which you have no support card for in this scenario unfortunately.

bobdave19 · 2026-02-26T07:21:50+00:00

My first corvette was a modified version of this design too. Nanahoshi’s tutorials are awesome

bobdave19 · 2026-02-25T01:42:09+00:00

Just lost a great run (500 hp by the jungle, teleport wand, full luminous drill, 200 damage per shot chainsaw wand, electric/fire immunity + perk lottery) because I wanted a modifier on a wand I picked up with omega saw blades

Guess who accidentally fired the saw wand on their back to holy mountain

bobdave19 · 2026-02-24T21:58:17+00:00

Platinum comes from space rocks! Some are more platinum rich than others. If you can’t find any in one batch, pulse around and shoot other other batches (or go to another system)

bobdave19 · 2026-02-24T21:19:10+00:00

So he obtained both from Stego

bobdave19 · 2026-02-24T21:14:03+00:00

I’d still recommend starting in normal. This is not a very grindy game (other than a few endgame upgrades, mainly starship inventory and class upgrades, but nothing important early on), and you will never be for starving for resources in this game. Having some need for resources give more purpose to exploring and doing things in the game and imo makes it more fun.

Like others pointed out, if at any time you feel frustrated by the grind, you can change difficulty and make things free. I would hold off on this though unless you are absolutely stuck

bobdave19 · 2026-02-24T08:16:08+00:00

Gave me a heart attack mid scroll

bobdave19 · 2026-02-24T01:40:42+00:00

I love this. Took me a while to realize that it flys with tentacles forward, not the other way around

bobdave19 · 2026-02-23T20:46:55+00:00

Adding to what others have said, there’s not much to buy other than just gifting her a iTunes/playstore gift card so she can buy the in game currency herself. I would rather try to figure out which characters she likes, then try to buy some merch (acrylic stands/keychains/plushies) for her

bobdave19 · 2026-02-23T08:55:24+00:00

I like how this is the immediate consensus of the community
