The Lighter Side of NMS. Graphics Hiccups and Funny Pics

My partner started her new and first ever NMS a few days ago.
While at a monolith, she scored a temporary paint job on her little ship.
Suddenly it looks kind of tough!
It self repaired as soon as she flew it sadly.

My missus is new to NMS & to games so NMS is a fairly steep learning curve for someone who hasn’t played since the days of Atari. Then this happened!
Look what you’ve done to your new ship”, I gasped feigning exasperation.
The more I laughed, she madder she got. :rofl:
But seriously…How do you manage to do this ??? It shouldn’t even be possible?

Thought about trying that a few times just to see if it was possible. Good to know it is! She should be proud of pulling off such an incredible feat! Here was my attempt, though mine is kinda fake because it was really the result of delayed graphics.

STOP THEM BEFORE THEY COPULATE ALL OVER THE WALLS!

Also fair play to your missus for going the extra mile and breaking the game at every possible turn, it takes a true non-gamer to pull off such feats. Sadly, soon she will pass a threshold and become a gamer, and those game breaking powers will fade over time.

Not really sure where else to post these but going through my Capture Gallery on my PS4, I discovered some old photo’s from my Day 1 days, the PS4 takes a pic every time you earn a Trophy. The graphics have come a long way and I didn’t quite realise just how much!

First Picture!

That last Gek looks like he’s suffering “Pleeease… Upgrade my graphics or just put me out of my misery!” Probably the most Toad-like Gek I’ve seen in a while though!

I have seen containers floating lots of times but never this high off the ground. I did finally reach it and open it.

Started fresh game, had a save created by getting in and out of my ‘crashed’ ship. Restarted save and this happened … Not a first time either …
