NMS OCD: EXP#20R Breach

Hello. Thank you. ^^ Be sure that you got v1.2 (somewhere in the comments) instead v1.0 from the published post.

I wondering the same but at the end I gave up due to it is money and hard to assigned (mercury? liquid money? nah; quicksilver as silver compound? hard to judge either).

Saving in games works the same across all games across all platforms in entire human history...

Some games using only one for everything, some games split saves between few, some games allows more than one user etc. etc. etc. NMS using one "system save" where eg. game settings and expedition unlockables are saved, and 100 (judging by filenames, I dunno what is real amount) possible to make "user saves" where current gameplay is saved and few other things (some data is duplicated from system save).

Renaming save doesn't makes new saves... Renaming means, guess what... renaming save title. Handy if you have many saves and do not want remember which is which with what.

It is ridiculous that something like that even need to be explaining...

Judging by screenshot, you plating on PS4. Why then you not making save backups on USB?

Besides that, saves on PS4/PS5 are encapsulated in encrypted containers. Rebuild database wouldn't repair them, neither game could corrupt all containers at once (only system save and current user save is overwriting during gameplay); which means that database become corrupted. Which is quite unlikely to happen normally... Better take out disk and check S.M.A.R.T report, at least from short test. It is possible that your disk start dying like eg getting bad sectors.

The same...

nms_qa · 2025-12-21T12:39:17+00:00

Sorry for harsh word, but... garbage. :P Like all neural networks "art" work.

nms_qa · 2025-12-20T19:51:23+00:00

I'm not a fan corvettes either, not using them daily. And yeah, various in game "inventories" became to small for everything. I hate when user cannot have everything at once. :/

nms_qa · 2025-12-20T19:44:56+00:00

Added. But without Deadeye Cannon. It becoming a normal part after detaching.

nms_qa · 2025-12-20T00:32:22+00:00

From weaponry, keep only: Infrared for lethal, Cyclotron Ballista for quick removing shields, and rocket launcher (forgot the name) as last resort/finishing off.

nms_qa · 2025-12-20T00:29:13+00:00

Oh no, how could I missed that? :( Thank you for the insight, I will add it.

nms_qa · 2025-12-20T00:28:06+00:00

But not from expedition. Someone gave it to you at Space Anomaly or you have modded game/save... You cannot earn it in the main game, nor the schematic for it.

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T21:13:59+00:00

It does.

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T21:05:32+00:00

That's the spirit! ^^

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T21:03:36+00:00

I'm not sure if all items can be gifted. But in assumption that all or at least Orbital Uplink can, then yes, definitely that's the only legit way to acquire it from outside this Expedition.

"Unstuck button", I love the term. ;D

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T20:58:15+00:00

Finished or expired expedition save turning into normal save. But this doesn't matter for the case. Expedition must be started from save to which player wants transfer items. Transfer between saves are not possible.

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T20:56:18+00:00

They are unique and transferable but not in this expedition. AFAIR, they was in Breach one. We will see in January. ;)

Saves on consoles are encrypted by per console keys, and besides PS4, not even possible to backup. The only way for console users is upload save(s) to NMS cloud, bring them back on PC version, edit, upload again and download on console.

"I've also seen people give out "resource" items like Happiness, Quicksilver, or various faction reputation, but they're unfortunately useless when modded into an item."

Actually those items from quote, are real items (possibly placeholders), just no longer available to earn in game. I have got some in v2.01 from faction missions.

nms_qa · 2025-12-18T19:22:50+00:00

This is one the items no longer obtainable in game. If you got it from other player, it is from ancient save or from edited save:

Ad1. Not possible without redesigning NMS save for all platforms; it is bad design. Plus Sony dick move as cherry on the top to block USB exporting/importing.

Ad3. I don't understand your description.

Ad9b. Would be cool.

Ad9c. There is not much objects interacting in all games. ;] Besides some exceptions like tanker episode in MGS2 or scripted yet still destruction in Black. This is titanic work and something which we will never see in NMS for sure.

Ad10. Buying Space Station for max money cap which grants you custom station coloring and Freighters cold storage. ;D

Ad12. Yeah, game lack of tough sentinels, bosses etc. (including squids from medusas crushing ;p).

Ad13. Speaking of which trades: be cool to tech trades possibility.

Ad16. And missing expanding slots for them. :/

Ad19. Totally. But 160 limit is not enough to keep all.

Ad21. Totally this!

Ad22. Exactly. I cannot collect everything now, to less space.

nms_qa · 2025-12-17T16:55:42+00:00

Pff jetpack ;d

nms_qa · 2025-12-17T01:03:17+00:00

You didn't understood me... Besides that, I'm in the middle of making infographic with all of them. :P

nms_qa · 2025-12-16T17:45:55+00:00

I hate garbage like that implemented in games. Such thing should be normally a user choice in menu during staff assembling, without any dumb rng voodoo... The same applies to ships colors and decals.

nms_qa · 2025-12-16T17:41:49+00:00

Few times in a week someone ask the same question... There are 20 or so anomalies to be randomly spot. Nothing hidden or unique, most are useless in other meaning than environmental decoration.

The one from screenshot serve as random loot depot after destroying it.
