We 3 friends started playing nms 2 weeks ago and eventually this same thing happened with my other 2 Friend unintentionally, like one of them had a S class exotic and he didn't like the design so he sold , after that other guy bought it from the same npc and got an A class of the same, we were having a long convo on this whether or not to report this bug to dev as we know exotic can only be A class!
@@goodguysfreeohh i see , we are new to the game so yeah good info, apart from that your videos are so informative and helpful I always enjoy watching each and every video of yours! Thankyou and keep doing good work!
Always a good idea to clone your ship before trying to gift a copy. Cloning is easy with a save-editor on PC. But on other platforms, you can use the expedition terminus in the Anomaly to clone the ship. See the description of this video for a link to Beeblebum's video on cloning ships. I also explain the same in this video: th-cam.com/video/IpEvzhJQ3Uc/w-d-xo.html However, notice that a recent update to the game made it possible to clone your ship only once!
@@goodguysfree Well this was then, we're not going to make the same mistakes now, are we? I was basically just alluding to some of the things you point out, that happened, before. I'm glad they fixed it, I had the disappearing thing happen, but the worst, was the ship flying away. . .
@@Anvil1137 I sort of did, but I never could get the color right, and I didn't know the names for the parts at that time, so getting it perfect, well, perfection is fleeting. Meanwhile, because of these expeditions I've got more ships than I know what to do with. . .
Answering both you and @grzegorzronkiewicz5984 : This is true, and yet - before the fix, the ship disappeared for the receiving player, and they just fell to the station floor. Therefor I recommended they stand very close to the front of the ship, and it seems to have worked very well.
Why not buy a void egg and give him so he can do the story line? In any case, there's no reason it won't work with living ships but I haven't tried. If you try, please let us know how it went.
@@goodguysfree I actually already gave him one.. but he literally just started playing so it's easier to just gift him one of mine.. He also want the one I have which is a red hammerhead.. We'll try it out if not I guess he'll have to finish the main mission.. I just wanted to check before trying it out

Sure that works, but with the latest patch, that is no longer necessary. The ship stays when you sell it, and if the other player is waiting for the NPC to appear, they will be able to talk to the NPC and buy it from them.
Sure. Join the Discord server, invite in channel description. Go to ship-exchange, follow instructions in the pinned message to fill the form I use to track who requested what. I'll get you a Phoenix.
Love the enthusiasm - I just noticed I can't keep track otherwise. It's bad enough that I can't keep up, but I don't want to forget who asked for stuff.
Thanks for the ship the process went flawless just like it did in the video.

Not a bug - when the ship becomes property of the NPC, its stats get randomized. Always has been like that.

Amazing Video :)
Thanks to you showing me how to gift a ship. I gifted a friend a golden guppy I had an extra of last night.
That is the best result I could hope to achieve. My pleasure.
Great video
The ships ive erarned from expeditions haven't showed up in my normal game 😢
You need to go to the Anomaly, to the Quicksilver companion, and select "Claim expedition rewards". Let me know how it goes.
I lost my most favorite Solar ship, doing an exchange. Loved that ship.
Oof, that's tough.
Hopefully you can rebuild it.

@@deanaoxo hah! Yeah, these expedition ships are really nice.
How did you get that hover ship
What do you mean? The Starborn Phoenix? It's all over the place being talked about. If you're on Steam, you go to NMS page and claim it.
I dont know if it works in mp . But npc wont fly away if u stand on the ship.
I was about to say the same thing. Always just stand on the ship.

Spare a Utopia speeder for an old ex leper?
Sure, just fill in the form...
Where is the form?
forms.gle/JUwptksCvMCSFpveA
But I see you already filled...
Does this work with living ships.. A buddy of mine just started and I plan on giving him one tommorow

if you don't want the npc leave all you have to do is stand on their ship and they can't take off while you are standing on top of it

Sell the ship to the npc then STAND on the ship you sold to hold it there.
Sure that works, but with the latest patch, that is no longer necessary. The ship stays when you sell it, and if the other player is waiting for the NPC to appear, they will be able to talk to the NPC and buy it from them.
Are you giving some away?
Sure, just fill in the form. Find it on the Discord server (invite link in channel description) in the pinned message of ship-exchange.
I WANT A SHIP PLEEEEAAASE
Join the Discord server (invite in channel description), go to ship-exchange channel, follow instructions in the pinned message.
Hello. I was just wonder if anyone me be able to help me get a Starborn Phoenix as I am on Xbox? If anyone my be able to help, I would grateful.
Sure. Join the Discord server, invite in channel description. Go to ship-exchange, follow instructions in the pinned message to fill the form I use to track who requested what. I'll get you a Phoenix.
Just fill out the form and jump through hoops to get one. Were you a pen pushing government official ? 😂
