Walker Brains are used for crafting a couple of different components in No Man’s Sky. Most players will need it for the conflict scanner for their ship(s), but they can also be used to make explosive drones for freighter missions. It’s not a bad idea to stock up on a few of those in case that you need them in the future (another conflict scanner for another ship). To get them, simply...

Derelict Freighters are abandoned semi-destroyed freighters that are full of loot for you to take. You need to talk to the scrap dealer NPC on any space station to buy (5.000.000 units) coordinate data that you will use while in your ship. Then enter pulse drive and exit when prompted. You will be at a derelict freighter. Land on it and go explore. Be careful because some can be dangerous. You...

Chlorine in No Man’s Sky is a great way to make units if you’re just getting started. What you need to do is simply loop it in the refiner (medium refiner is enough) and you do that by stocking up on oxygen (buy it from the NPCs) and having at least a little bit of chlorine initially. If you can’t find chlorine on any NPC, go to a planet with water and farm some salt to refine...

Frigates in No Man’s Sky are a part of your freighter fleet. You recruit them by going to different star systems and simply paying to have them join your fleet. They come in different classes such as combat, industrial, exploration, trading & support. It’s important to have at least 5 support frigates in your fleet because they reduce the cost of fuel it takes to complete a...

Portals in No Man’s Sky are used to quickly travel to distant systems and planets. They are very useful if you want to find something specific that another player has left for you (let’s say a system where a specific ship spawns). Finding portals is very easy. You will need to locate a Monolith which will accept some basic materials in order to let you use it. To find a Monolith...

Freighters are the biggest ships in No Man’s Sky. They are also called capital ships. You can only have one at a time. They have the same classes as other starships and their inventory can be upgraded via specialized modules you can scavenge in the game. There is also a way to get an s-class freighter at the beginning of the game for free. All you have to do is make a manual save prior to...

This is probably the best set it and forget it method for getting rich in No Man’s Sky. You just need to build the farm once and you’re all set for as long as you play the game. Keep going back to it and keep taking activated indium to sell. That’s what we’re farming here. So let’s start with some required technologies and preparations. Also make sure you have a few...

When you first start playing No Man’s Sky, chances are you’re going to die. Like, real quick. And that’s okay. A lot of players do. Statistically speaking, the game is much more likely to first put you on a high hazard type of a planet. Or maybe you were lucky (if even possible, don’t know) and you found yourself on a lush planet, which is basically (usually) completely...

No Man’s Sky is a huge game. It’s procedurally generated. It’s not the biggest game ever made, but it’s definitely up there with them. If you were to explore NMS at a rate of 1 planet per second, it would take you 585 billion years to finish. And that’s before the Origins update, which has added even more solar systems & planets to it. If we were to speed that up...

Playing No Man’s Sky with mods is great. Installation is fast & easy. I’m going to show you exactly what you need to do, as well as what to do after every update in order to keep the mods working. Sometimes certain mods might become outdated, and that’s fine. Things change. When that happens, you will generally want to visit the mod’s page and notify the author, or see...
