Thanks for the straightforward tutorial. As others have mentioned, NMS can be a pain to start off in as a new player as the location starts to try to kill you.
@quetzalpacheco very few planets have no environmental damage which is specifically lifeless planets but they are full of alien parasites and have no carbon
I have played since the first patch dropped and this is one of the most concise and to the point beginner tutorials I have seen for NMS. Fantastic work!
It's pretty amazing how high the production is on this for someone with less than 100 subs. Very nice. I will add a few tips of my own, after over 800 hours of playing: 1. Why find a cave when you can make one? Once you have the Terrain Manipulator, just dig into the ground about 10 feet at an angle and you can hide from storms there. 2. Cobalt is your best friend early game to make money (unless you get super lucky and find bones or scrap, maybe chlorine plants but those are extremely rare also). Go into a cave and grab all of the cobalt and sell it on the station. You won't need it for awhile. 3. Ion Batteries and Life Support Gels are cheap on the stations and you can hold up to 99 in a stack. Get as many as you can afford before you've beefed up your suit. Hell, even after. Doing so makes it so you almost never have to worry about hazard protection or life support failing on you. All it takes is a few thousand units, which you should have if you farmed all the cobalt and sold it. 4. Oh yeah, one more tip: While flying around the planet in your ship, tap the left stick in to do an area sweep for nearby structures. If you see one that looks substantial, look for a landing pad, marked with three green concentric circles. Land there and you can take off for free -- no launch fuel needed. And those buildings are sometimes trade outposts or other useful structures like observatories that will locate ancient ruins for you.
Step one, progress the story until you get the anomaly. Step two, go afk in the anomaly with an empty inventory. Step three, after an hour or so, sell everything people gifted you. Step four, never worry about money again.
A lot of player interaction happens on the Anomaly. A lot of players will gift items to newer players. It can be a gamble though because of player griefing!
@@Hyper_Vyle because they're doing the duplication glitch. They're not doing it out of the kindness of their hearts. If you stick an item in your personal refiner, then get in and out of your ship, remove the item from the refiner, then gift a player with literally anything, then reload your autosave, and bam, you've got 2 of whatever item you put in the refiner. If somebody gifts you something, that's why. Tons of people use this glitch. You can duplicate literally anything, even nanites and tech upgrade modules.
This is by far the best beginner guide I’ve found. You’ve thought of everything: explaining the HUD, the controls, and even blurring the text boxes in the quest. I hope you get lots more subscribers bc you definitely deserve them. I happily subscribed. Thanks so much!!
I’ve played it for awhile but enjoy watching beginner guides because it could benefit me in my next run. This is probably one of, if not, the best guides I’ve seen. It’s slow enough to follow but fast enough to not get bored. It also gives some really good tips 👍
Nice video. Very helpful. Considering starting over because I haven’t played in years and I never got far to begin with, so I was doing my research. This video will definitely get me to the anomaly in a good position for success. Cheers.
I Don't even like this game but I will subscribe because of your hard work and I know how does it feel to have more subscribers. never stop uploading videos, good luck brother.
Excellent beginner guide that helps explain many of the second nature things like which keys to use. Also, the X menu would be good to go through to explain summoning things, changing multitools and camera views.
Great introductory tutorial, thank you. Including all the obscure buttons was a great help, it was information missing from all the other beginner tutorials I watched. New sub.
One thing I've always objectively disliked about nms was the very first moments of spawn. They always throw you onto a hazardous planet, which immediately starts killing you and it gives you almost no time to get your bearings, ESPECIALLY if you're a new player and have no clue what's happening. I have had multiple friends give up during the tutorial because it literally just throws you into the deep end and barely eases you into anything. I kind of wish you started on a dead moon where you're not gonna get overwhelmed by all this random shit around you while dying.
I know! I think it's done this way so the game can teach you about environmental damage during the tutorial, but there must be a better way. At least they have a reason for doing it this way though
@@TheModishGamer Did you do the Leviathan expedition? My lord, you want to talk about a rough start. That was permadeath no less, and it started you on a planet very near some aggressive strider animals! Very hard even for a veteran like me.
I was talking to someone about how you should definitely spawn on a barren moon. They are great for the tutorial. Plus they get really cold at night and would teach players to handle their life support
No Man’s gonna turn this video tutorial down! Love and respect the work you put into making this so newby friendly! From one content creator to another. Thank you 🍻
Great guide! I've seen a few suggesting flying around for a trading outpost and building a base there - but an hour later and I still can't find a post..
They can be tough to find. It is helpful to set one up early, it gives you a reason to come back to your first base later in the game, though it's not necessary. And a little bit after you get to the anomaly you can unlock the economy scanner which makes them so easy to find! So you won't have to search like that I'd you wait until later in the game
I just got into NMS a few months ago & died during the 1st storm! I rage quit it! But I still have it on my Xbox! After watching this I will give it a go! I have heard nothing but good things about this game from friends & several youtubers! Great vid, liked & subbed! Keep up the great work! ;)
I tried playing this game on my Xbox also about a year ago and rage quit due to not knowing what the hell to do. I haven’t tried it since the updates but hopefully they have a better starting guide.
It seems to be the same as before when I tried it! But I played before the robots & pirates got added! I also got to the second planet this time! I finally made it through the storms that always hit all the time! Then I found a locked building that I could not get in! I scanned some plants, started mining stuff & got attacked by a flying robot! I thought the robots I had heard about were not till later, they slaughtered me, so I quit again!
@@BorgWolf359 well same as me, i just started playing 3days ago, and for me was sentinals, but just go in space follow missions untill you get in anomaly, in there some guy have me 100mil so yeah i have that big ship
These wonky keyboard key binds forced me to hook up my PS4 controller with a cable. So much easier to play that way. If they gave you a good old fashioned hot bar to assign keys to it would be much easier.
I have a question about talking to npcs to ask about 16, I clicked the button to start a conversation with them but then I pressed "Leave" without asking about 16, still progressed to the next objective, the question is how do I know if I'm locked out of talking to? I checked the vendors now and can still start a conversation, do you get locked out of starting a conversation with them immediately or later at some point in the story?
@@Korelie I might come back to it in the future, and certainly am interested! My goal though is to create as many guides for as many games as I can to make the industry more accessible to more people!
@@TheModishGamer It is! I had worked out for myself that setting up *near* a Trade Station was useful, but I hadn't realised that you could build a base *inside* it. Cuts my commute time down considerably :)
It definitely is! You will always spawn on a semi-hazardous planet. If you can hold out until you get to the space station you can buy batteries to fill your life support and oxygen for very cheap!
The greatest disappointment I have in HG is that they don't have official space ship models for the game. They've done amazing work upgrading the game and it's a shame the official merch is under represented. I have half a mind to cast a U coin out of Nordic Gold since I can't but one from HG.
My way in my first time playing this game to get off the first planet after dying 20 times due to the ridicilously stupid life support system, was just running around the planet so long until I stumbled on some alien station and talked to a NPC after Learning few words there, who I was able to sell the broken ship to for a functioning one. Stupid deal for him but atleast I could finally get of that planet and actually play the game
I’m on Xbox 😞. I had a Class freighter. Finally found an S and when I put in the garden it wouldn’t grow. Put the visor on it and it had the infinity symbol instead of how long it takes to grow.
@@Lord-Darkness As a former player of STO, this game is significantly different. You can mine, buy or sell pretty much any mineral or gas. You can manufacture a good deal of them as well and sell them for profit or shop around from system to system and see if you can get a better price. Also the game isn't really an MMO per se. You can play with other players but it's a far different experience. You will eventually run into other players but unless you are on a certain station you get to fairly early in game, you won't generally be seeing any players in a system unless you are playing with friends. Combat: Ground combat in STO vs NMS, I give to NMS. STO is very stilted and you are limited to a certain area. You cycle through your skills depending on your class. In NMS, you can travel to any point on any planet, mine and catalog. Watch for hostile life (most are docile). Class doesn't exist in NMS, only play style Space Combat: STO you are maneuvering a large ship to bear and cycling your weapons and special abilities. In NMS you are a single pilot. If you ever played any of the old Wing Commander games or Privateer, combat tends to be like that. Downside is the lack of customization for your ship in NMS. You can customize the weapons and strengths but you can't change its appearance or colors like in STO. The ship is going to look the same no matter what you add on to it. Trade: there are trade terminals on space stations and when npc pilots land you can trade with them for what they have or even if you have enough buy their ship from them. Finally when it comes to character customization, this is where NMS is less robust vs STO. You can't change your appearance to look like anything you really want as you are limited to a smattering of premade body types and customizations. Which is a downside for me but you can at least customize to a certain degree, just don't expect to see a ridiculously proportioned alien with purple skin and horns wearing a Klingon uniform in NMS. Hope this helps.
I'd like to play this game. I've tried to start so many times. But it's such a grind that it's just easier to use WeMod cheats to give yourself infinite everything, which obviously is as pointless as naming new animals species and planets after pornstars, which is something everyone does.
I’ve no idea what I’m doing in this game. It just seems like a pointless repetitive bore fest. I’ve traveled light years and all the space stations and structures are identical. The Vehicles in Thunderbirds 50 years ago looked better. The creatures are infantile One “mission” was searching a freighter? It was the most tedious thing I’ve ever experienced. Storm approaching, again? FFS no thanks 😱
Some of life's most rewarding experiences require a bit of effort. Like learning to play a musical instrument. If you don't make an effort your brain will turn to mush and you will prematurely shuffle off this mortal coil as a dribbling, babbling idiot.
Until the NMS universe feels alive, I'll skip this title Aliens have no life, character or realism Worlds are sandboxes with absolutely no unique activity or story That might be cool for some, though for most, repetitive and boring
It's definitely not a game for everybody. One of the best parts about NMS though is the amount of updates it has received. One day the world may feel exactly how you are describing!
Thanks for the straightforward tutorial. As others have mentioned, NMS can be a pain to start off in as a new player as the location starts to try to kill you.

Chlorine isn't really rare?? It's literally in most lakes. If not salt is which can be refined into chlorine.
@@nerdjournal Chlorine itself isn't rare but the sentient plants you get it from are.
Also crashed freighters are good for a free landing pad. You can also get good loot at the same time

Why do people gift random stuff in the anomaly?
A lot of player interaction happens on the Anomaly. A lot of players will gift items to newer players. It can be a gamble though because of player griefing!

Anyone having a glitch on a freighter where your plants doesn’t grow
Great question! I think it has to do with power transfer glitching on the freighter. Try adding windows every couple of plots and see if that helps!
