NMS Expeditions

Isn’t that alphabet used on some freight crates in-game? Wonder if those say anything sensiblee too. If yes, HG would have been using this for quite a while with nobody figuring it out until they got explicit…

With the community progress having ended, and considering the new content being very spoiler heavy, I made a new topic specifically for all the incoming spoiler content.

So they’re dropping an update in the middle of the expedition? Without any feature announcements or anything? That could get quite interesting…

IMPORTANT: Update your game before continuing, as having the Myth Beacon prior to updating the game, will prevent the ‘Collective Consciousness’ Milestone from completing

I was in the anomaly as it reached 100% and collected the myth beacon before I knew there was an update. That explains all the glitches I had. I still managed to complete it, but it was a massive pain in the arse. FYI :slight_smile:

Edit: now that I think about it, using a space station teleportr triggered the collective consciousness milestone for me. After that though there was still a bit of messing about to get the ship

I was determined I was going to work through Expeditions 2 on my own, with no hints or spoilers, and at my own (sedate) pace.

Then I discovered that Polo wouldn’t tell me where the Atlas was. He just wanted to sell me things.

So now I’ve had to cheat my way out of it. Grrr.

Well, I would look at it as cheating, but more like you asked someone else for directions because Polo couldn’t stop talking about tech.

You should see a green line to follow. I had to jump a couple of times before I saw them though.

Some are saying you must return to rendezvous 1 but that is not true

Make sure the mission is selected, then check Galaxy Map with the filter set to ‘current mission’. If it does not show where to go, reload game and check again. I have heard reports of the galaxy map sometimes needing a few tries before showing where to go. It should be a system some 500ly away from Rendezvous 1

I reloaded and teleported back to R5 since R1 is not in my list. Took 3 long jumps and I was where I needed to be.

Yes. I made sure that Milestone 16 / 16 / 16 was active when I spoke with Polo and Nada.

I’d like any light that you’re willing to share on how to active Milestone 16 / 16 / 16 since Polo/Nada will not.
