Extremely happy for all those new players who missed out on this <3

When I saw the line was added with The Cursed, I felt I wanted to let all the players lamenting their lack of it know asap. I checked reddit and nobody had brought it up so I made the post.

One commenter made the prediction that the Cursed ends before N7 day and it might come then.

Can we get a golden calf sent to this persons house?

Not sure if bug or by design. I have a pirate freighter in my main so I’m thinking bug.

The interior of my freighter for Beachhead is the pirate interior :slight_smile:

There are also new milestones for fishing in this redux


I sensed a disturbance in the force when reading that. Like a million voices crying out in an instant.

Edit:

Flew out
 Definitely a bug.

Also this is how I learned there are torpedos stored under the hanger of the landing bay and you can see them once in there through the floor grates :open_mouth:

I will definitely do this expedition again (for the 3rd time :smiley: ).
I think it’s no coincidence that HG posted it now (beyond too obvious n7).
Maybe it somehow refers to the current flow of lore - well let see if i am right or this is just pure nonsense :wink:

See if a save and reload fixes it, or possibly a restart. It usually happens when having loaded a different save owning a pirate freighter, prior to loading another save that doesn’t.

I am going to catch an uncommon fish, and shove it right up Sean Murray’s ****.

His four star what? Hotel? B and b? Google review for a local restaurant?

I need you to finish your sentence or I won’t sleep :wink:

yeah I missed it the first time too
 I found this post looking for a walkthrough or something helps me accomplish this within the 2-weeks because I would like to bring the Normandy with me wherever I go in NMS.

Cheers

Just cleared shader cache and started NMS. No expedition showing. :disappointed_relieved:

Oh noes ;0; Which platform are you playing on again? I was able to start it on PS5 but didnt check PC. I also joined via the nexus with an existing save if that information is of any importance.

Omitted saying PC.

I dunno why I even asked that when you said you cleared shader cache :thinking: :flushed: :see_no_evil:

I don’t have the screens on me atm but I noticed a large reduction in the LOD distance when switching to photomode on PS5 during Beechhead expedition.

I’ve been playing it on PC since yesterday afternoon. I have experimental enabled, but AFAIK, the expedition doesn’t depend on that. Puzzling.

“Dig up buried items” doesn’t work with bones.

(edit) Doesn’t work with salvage containers, either.

(edit) (again) Buried cache will do it.

The field of view was slightly off between gameplay and photo mode and I wasn’t bothered lining them up, so I’ve just circled the offending terrain.

I did narrow the field of view in photo mode, reset everything to default before hand, twice, in case that was causing it, reduced fog too as I noticed it creeps in closer in photo mode.

Either the game has an increased LOD now for PS5 and it hasn’t updated for photo mode, or photo mode has a bug that reduces its LOD distance.

I only tried this during the expedition, where the game does not pause while in photo mode, so it could also just be a side effect of that, since the game is in motion it reduces LOD for photo mode for performance reasons

Im thinking this might be a weird hangover from the ps5 pro update :slight_smile:

Remembering Beachhead


It’s great everyone is getting the Normandy but it’s a shame they can’t experience it like we did, we didn’t know we were getting it until the expedition research unlocked it, was a big surprise for all of us. All of us except maybe data miners. No idea because I avoided those topics at the time. Now I can’t help myself :stuck_out_tongue:

Sean, I saved a particularly large one for you. One with big spines.

Brace yourself.

Something interesting about this ‘Warning’ message, don’t you think?
Especially when displayed in trailer of revisiting Exp with its completion screen :confused: :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

It’s odd they used the original trailer. It made sense at the time because we all unlocked the trailer at the same time towards the end of Beachhead expedition the first time around.

We didn’t know it was a reward going in.

It’s still one of the best kept secrets that surprised gamers in recent memory <3

Would have been easy to change that splash screen at the start but sure whatever :stuck_out_tongue:
