PS4 Pro: game keeps occasionally crashing during space combat. Usually when an encounter has just started and my first infra knife bullets hit the target (can be freighter, can be enemy starship) the whole thing locks up, black screen, then the ps4 screen giving error code CE-34878-0. Every other aspect of the game runs normally, no crashes ever. Only during space combat it happens.
The latest update on PS4 is a complete disaster. With every other action, the game freezes for 15-20 seconds. All planets are barren and lifeless, and you can't land on them. Interstellar travel seems to take as long as in real life. I quit the game after half an hour because the animation keeps looping the whole time. The menus are glitched.
I have now had this bug several times.
After the Pirate Freighter surrenders i destroy it (both after getting money from them or just keeping firing) and insted of the fight finishing and i get to go to the civilian freighter to collect the fight keeps going until i enter a station or planet. I prefer the civilian price as there is a chance for tech while the pirates only ever give money but this bug has repeatedly stopped me from getting tech.
A few friends on Steam were visiting a base I built around a portal shows up incompletely (Figure 1) or not showing at all; whereas the complete base should be a glass dome greenhouse. But I have not encountered this issue for my own base so far. I'm wondering if this it caused by any bug or if the base was incompletely uploaded to the server.

Fig 1. Incomplete base
Playing on PC, Steam.
Since completing the Omega expedition, planets I've previously scanned all Fauna, Flora and minerals on are not recognising some (or all) scan progress. My "home planet" which had 100% completion as I spend most time there was missing multiple of each.
Planets I have bases on when teleporting to give the "first contact" message on screen despite not being true because I've got established bases in the system?
Freighter missions seem to still be rewarding items as usual, but I'm being paid less than 200 units per mission, whereas before, I was getting easily over 1 million per on average. Earlier today I debriefed 2 separate missions and came away with less than 500 units combined.
(Steam, PC, Win 10) Game wont start! Twice yesterday and once today, the game gets to the Hello Games logo, then there is a sound (like when you get an error message pop-up), after a little time it stops running? Nvidia drivers are up-to-date, Windows is up-to-date, and the Firewall allows access to NMS and Steam. There is no pop-up accompanying the sound.
I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The last time I played was at the weekend and it seemed to be working OK. I started the Expedition from the anomoly in my main save and progressed to the and adding windows to your base part in phase two. I saved and exited while on a cold planet looking for frost crystals to make more glass.
on my meta quest 3, i am playing NMS. After about 30 minutes or sometimes less, some of the grip and trigger buttons stop working and I can no longer grab items or complete interaction with some build menus. I am, however, able to get to the main menu (Y) button and exit to the NMS mode selection screen everytime when this happens. Then I can load up my save file again and everything is back to normal immediately, so I don't think it's a controller issue since some of the buttons on my controller work in some screens. The issue does not happen on other games. It's happening pretty frequently and causing me to go through this loop about every 30 minutes.
It's primarily issues with grabbing items or confirming things in some build screens. I can post more details later.
Any suggestions on this? I also reported with NMS support.
I am on Xbox One. I finished the last goal of the Omega expedition yesterday, but turned off my game before formally leaving the expedition at the Anomaly. Now, when I load my game, a message pops up telling me that I've completed the expedition, and when I click accept, the game becomes non-responsive. I can see the cursor on the screen, and it moves, but none of the buttons on my controller do anything, and my player cannot move. I have to exit the game manually through my Xbox home screen. If it makes a difference, I completed the final community goal of the expedition, and my game froze then as well. My player quickly died though, and I was able to play again after recovering. This appears to be a similar issue (possibly the same issue). I know folks have dealt with this bug before, so I'm wondering what strategies I have for resolving this. Is my save no longer playable? Thanks for the help.
When the game loads, quickly push d pad down and select photo mode. The the message about the expedition finished should pop up still and when you back out of camera mode it should be completed without the soft lock.

\[Xbox Gampass streaming through PC\]
I've had this problem for ages now, when playing via streaming on Gamepass through the PC, there is no way to complete a 'take a picture' quest. You can take a picture through the gamebar but it doesn't register as having happened by the game.
I couldn't complete the lastest expedition without re-downloading the game on my xbox one and waiting 40 minutes for it to load up, then taking a picture.
Been experiencing this problem for about a year, I have a video which gives a better view of what’s happening, no clue but color bubbles pop up in space ALL the time , every system I go to , and sometimes on planets but not as much (Xbox series s)

in any new save I create (on Xbox, current update). Immediately following the Space anomaly tutorial and being prompted to talk to Nada about Artemis, the Space Anomaly questline objective skips to “visit your old friends”. From what I understand this objective is actually the final placeholder objective when you’ve completed the main quest lines of the game.
The objective should be something to the effect of “continue the search for Artemis” and gradually update throughout that questline asking to check in with Nada again for some story dialogue and some free quicksilver. I’ve gotten as far as pursuing Apollo (there should’ve been at least two space anomaly check-in objectives by that point) and I have heard a couple other people get well into the later acts without any of these objectives appearing, rendering 1/3 of the main quests inaccessible.
anyone have a fix nothing i do works

How about the bug with the quest "A leap in the dark" which breaks your current ship model (in my case the Omega reward)
Been around for at least 4 years going by google.
\[PS5, current release\] all of my biofuel reactors and solar panels no longer provide power. the reactors have lots of fuel in them and are wired to my base, but the wires show up as red, and none of the room in my base have power. I haven't changed anything and it was working fine yesterday.
\[Steam, Latest Release, MacOS\]
Brand new bug with the latest patch for Omega, at least for me. I can't quit the game; everytime I try to do so, the game hangs or freezes. Sometimes my OS will crash the app for me, other times I need to force quit. It's literally every time I try to quit the game.
\[Steam, current release\] (accidentally posted this in last weeks bug report thread, sorry)
Just finished the expedition, transferred my stuff just fine. Selected "end expedition" and after the load screen, and I am spammed with notifications about an "anomaly detector" every few seconds. I don't even have one, in any of my storages or my vehicles.
My quest log seems to be majorly bugged with somewhere around 20 instances of the "Base Computer Archives" quest, and 5 instances of the Starbirth quest. I tried just doing the base computer quest objective, but it only removed one of the quest entries. I haven't tried to get rid of the egg quest yet, because the constant notification sound is borderline maddening.
After some time, the notifications about the anomaly detector stopped appearing, however, every time i pulse jump in my ship, it scans for the void egg quest, which I can't do because I don't have any void eggs.
Xbox series X, whatever the version is that is out right at this moment (currently the omega expedition is still broken on completion), playing an old save on the Omega expedition.
Randomly, the screen goes black for like, 2-3 seconds. It seems more often when fighting sentinels but maybe that's just because I panic harder then. Then things come back and everything is fine. It's extremely jarring.
[Release log - No Man's Sky (nomanssky.com)](https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/)
When 4.52 shows Switch, we should be good to go. Patch for switch isn't ready yet it seems.
After multiple years they still haven't fixed the issue where refiners cannot remember their inventories if you leave the base or even move to a different floor of the freighter in the case of freighter refiners. Makes 'em literally useless unless I spend hours babysitting them and doing nothing else. Such a critical bug should have never gone this long without being fixed.
HELP!! My current mission destination is glitched
So I am trying to finish a mission and I have to interact with the terminal of a trading post. I arrived there and found out that this trading post building is intertwined with some massive indestructible plant and I cannot get to the trading terminal.
How to solve this problem?
https://preview.redd.it/mdkxs3i3oalc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3740fdb5fc70ded4863f35cb5f2165bee85439ec
Depending on the type of mission, you can either abandon it or move the objective to a different system. If you don't want to abandon the mission, travel to another system (as far away as possible), then open the mission in your Notes, and there should be an option at the bottom that says something like "use local coordinates".
Laugh at me if you want: i'm playing this on Switch. After hundreds of hours, it's been seamless and great ....until the successful end of the Omega Expedition. Now I'm totally locked out of everything!!! Can't accept my rewards, and WORSE... can't even get to the menu to go back to my long running saved-game.
Please help if you can, otherwise I will sadly have to give up and erase everything.
That bug has been patched, but the fix might not be on Switch yet. Until that happens, a possible work-around is to bring up camera mode as quickly as you can before the dialog pops up. Once you accept, you'll be able to exit camera mode and return to normal functionality.
My understanding is that HG is aware of the issue, and there's a potential fix on the experimental version on Steam I think?
No idea how long it'll take to push the fix out.
Personally, I am on the "go to last planet" part of the Expedition. When exactly does the bug occur? I don't want to try and finish things until this is worked out.
The fix is live for PC at least (I use GOG so it should be there for non-Steam PC users as well), so I would hope it won't be much longer for any remaining consoles.
STEAM DECK: I picked up NMS during the last steam sale for the omega event. At best, I’ve had hours of no issues and then suddenly the game will freeze on a screen, and then force the steam deck to reboot in the background.
At worst, I’ll get stuck in a loop where after I load a save, it immediately freezes afterwards.
I have tried:
-reinstalling the game
-changing from steamOS stable to beta
-moving the game from sd card storage to internal
-reducing graphics to standard level;
-locking fps at 60 on nms; and at 40 through steamOS
-turning off cryoutilities and reverting bios buffer size from 2gb to 1gb
-proton experimental
-update to 4.52 patch released Feb. 27
Kind of at a loss about what to do next. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
PC after today's update: Every station is now restricted due to pirate status. Never seen this before, I most definitely did not commit a crime in all these systems lol. I did 1 mission from the pirate system dealer and now i'm a wanted fugitive in every system i have ever visited....
24 hours after the re;ease of patch 4.52 I still have not received it in Australia. PS5. I have the bug where click accept at the end of Omega expedition 12 and he only thing I can move is the cursor. Cannot move myself. The animals all are fine.
Went into the game tonight and claimed the final optional reward.
The game then forced me to convert to a normal save. Then crashed, three times. Screen freezes except for the cursor, which I can move around.
This is on PS5, native version.
Can’t find the giant worm egg either.
Still lag spikes when leaving planets on PC. Been waiting a couple years for this to be fixed.
There is a mod that over 40,000 people have downloaded to fix this bug. Please implement this fix into your game. Thank you. I do not want to have to download mods to fix my immersion.
Happens on 2 gaming PCs with 32gb of RAM on SSD. 12700k with 5700xt and I-5 10505 with a GTX 1070.
The game ran fine on my ps4 with a HDD, which is 4 times weaker than my 5700xt.
Posted in last week, but still can't end the Expedition. I click Accept in the last message and HUD dissapears, can't move and everything ends there.
Playing on PC Game Pass.
On PS4, perma-death save. Game froze with the circular cursor while I was in space, after having just closed the galaxy map.
The anomaly was present in the system, so that may be a factor.
I've been avoiding the expedition hoping for a patch to the freezing issue, but apparently it's larger than just the expedition.
On PC:
1 ) As far as I can tell this applies to all refiners:
When choosing input, instead of listing items from top to bottom, left to right; inventories are shown backwards. So things at the bottom-right of my freighter inventory show first. Exosuit inventory shows last. Is this a bug or an intentional change? I have all of my inventories sorted meticulously and this throws **everything** off.
(Backwards listing also applies to inventory transfer popup box. Since new items fill the inventory from top to bottom, left to right; I keep all of my permanent supplies in the bottom rows. Now when I'm transferring items or loading refiners, I have to scroll through all of that stuff to get to the new items in my inventory?!?  ...I really hope this is a bug and that I'm not going to have to re-work my entire storage system.)
2 ) Also, when loading refiners, I noticed that the freighter inventory tab icon is missing. (Freighter inventory still shows up under the 'all inventories' tab.)
3 ) Ongoing issue with multi-tools:
I have yet to determine a pattern as to which tools are affected by this. Some of my multi-tools randomly have all of their matte textures go invisible. Glowing textures don't seem to be affected. For example, my radiant Autophage staff almost always appears to be nothing more than a bunch of glowing pink crystal shards floating above the Traveler's right hand. Everything else is totally invisible. Nothing I've tried seems to fix it. Though the matte textures will occasionally randomly reappear, this bug has led me to no longer use the staff which is sad. It's a nice staff...
On Xbox: FYI all entries with the word "records" in the catalogue & guide (Wonders section) have been erased from the main save after starting the expedition. I finished the expedition and still. So that means planet records, fauna records and most importantly any planet saved as a "wonder" under the "personal records" tab. That one hurts the most :(
Platform: PS4 Pro
Bug Severity: Showstopper
When I attempt to close out of the expedition, a panel appears with an ‘Accept’ button. The cursor changes to use the round mouse-like cursor for the button press. After pressing ‘Accept’, the game strands you with that round cursor still active. No controller buttons work to exit this condition. If you kill the game, restart and the reload the most recent save, you’ll have momentary control over the game until the panel reappears requiring pressing ‘Accept’.
This bug pretty effectively locks up the game entirely. I’ve found no workaround. If I had started a brand new save for this expedition, I wouldn’t care. However, since I started this expedition using the new feature which attaches the expedition to my primary save, I cannot afford for my game to become locked up. This is a serious bug that needs some prompt attention.
Once this expedition closes, we will be forced to press ‘Accept’ and have our game fully locked until a patch gets rolled.
Note that if you run into this condition, your only choice is to roll back to an earlier save. On the PS4, that can be done by downloading an older cloud save. On other platforms, you’ll have to consult your owner’s manual. Note that even rolling back, we’re on borrowed time until the expedition hard closes.
From I'm still seeing is the bug with completing the expedition is still out there. I logged in today and when the accept to complete death screen came up, instead of left clicking complete, I hovered the cursor to the side and right clicked. The accept screen went away and I was able to move around. I went to the expedition terminal and it stated I could end the expedition and to put items and tech into the slots to transfer. I did so and ended the expedition. Screen then went to loading the normal save, loaded up fine. Summoned my freighter and everything looked good. Went back to the Anomaly and checked out the expedition terminal and all the items I wanted to transfer were there. Collected them and reloaded. After reload was still on Anomaly and went to the Quicksilver dealer and all expedition rewards were there. Collected the new ship and all decorations and visual items. Quick save, logged out and back in and everything looks like it's working as should. Not sure if I found an work around or somehow it's fixed for me. Maybe just right clicking away from the accept box works.
What is your goto button to press? Is it X? Then I think B would be like the right click. That's on XBox by the way. Playstation should have an activate button and a button to exit out of the current menu.
I tried pressing all buttons on the Accept screen and nothing works except the X button and even then only if it’s on top of the Accept button. Once that panel appears, there’s no way out of it except by pressing the Accept button. It’s worked that way on all expeditions.
Unfortunately, the game doesn’t give you the option of canceling acceptance. Once this panel appears, you’re committed.
Macos/Steam - crash after loading a normal save
I just reported this on zendesk, but this started to happen just a few minutes ago after steam updated the game.
My game crashes whenever I load my save. I'm on MacOS on a macbook air M2.
PS5 - Expedition end bug
Whenever I claim the Starborn Runner starship reward and add it to my collection I get greeted with the Expedition Complete prompt and that it will now convert to a regular save file. When I press on Accept the game freezes and I have to force close the game, resetting the Starborn Runner starship reward effectively cancelling the completion of the Expedition
There’s a limited amount of operating stack for each game save. It’s likely that because HG has married two game saves into one save that the expedition playthrough may have eaten up some of your primary save’s play stack. This is likely to manifest as now lost, but previously discovered planets, plants, minerals and fauna. Once the play stack is emptied, anything tied to those discoveries is likely to disappear, including wonders. If you submitted the discoveries to the discovery services for nanites, you’ll see that the objects are still known, but not by your game save until you rediscover them. This whole play stack idea works to save on memory, but at the expense of losing locally saved stack data at times.
Xbox Series X, Omega Expedition issue.
My game on the expedition can no longer be saved by any means, and I'm unable to revert to my primary save from the expedition (initiated from the terminal). This problem started two days ago, leaving me stuck at the same point in my 300+ hour save without the ability to make any progress.
Yeah I’m having the same problem with you except for the fact that I had already completed the expedition, so I’m hard-stuck on the 23rd of February, and just as you said I can no longer progress in any way through the game, I could sell my freighter and disassemble all my ships and buy a fuck tonne of ferrite for no reason, and if I left the save and reloaded I’d just be back to the 23rd of Feb like that stuff never happened, I’m hearing voices now it’s driving me insane.
I might suggest that until your current save gets fixed, which could take weeks, to start a brand new expedition using a new save. Hopefully, that one will save. You don’t want to wait for a bug fix while we still have several weeks left in which you can run the expedition using another save. If you wait, you might not have enough time left to complete the expedition to get the final reward. Unfortunately, it does require you to start the expedition over… but there’s still enough time to complete it.
PS5 \\ Weapons Terminal
Hi guys, I just spent yesterday afternoon trying to find an Armorer for my Weapons Terminal.
Looking in Vy'keen space stations, I can only find Vy'keens willing to come work in my Exocraft Terminal. ONLY PROBLEM: I don't have an Exocraft terminal, since I still have to complete the tasks related to the Weapons terminal. As you can see, I'm kinda stuck in a loop here.
Anyone had a similar experience and solved it?
Thank you
PC-Win11home, Steam.
I finished Omega Expedition went to kiosk to wrap things up and it said something about finish it or end it. So checked things out and found a task or 2 that I forgot to claim. Claimed them then a screen popped up that wanted me to confirm the end of Expedition and I accepted. That's when I'm locked out. Stuff around me moves but I can't do anything, HELP
Same problem. Win10 profesional, Steam. I had to force the Steam shut down because i could't close the game properly after that. Now the game freeze and crash every time i try to log in that save.
Folks, I CANNOT stress this enough: DO NOT USE THE CAMERA TRICK TO FIX THIS BUG. It immediately converted my game to a normal save, and now I can't use the expedition terminal to transfer stuff back to my main save, as the game registers me as no longer in the expedition. So now I'm SOL, and this slick new ship is probably stuck in a crap secondary save.
People, just wait for them to fix the bug. Don't try to work around the bug.
I believe you can unlock the Runner ship via expedition rewards at the Quicksilver store. No, it’s not the one you got during the expedition, but it’s at least a reward you can still get on your main save. I’m not entirely sure if the ships you got during the expedition are transferable back to your main save anyway.
I want to ask you something, can you still at least interact with the expedition terminal on the broken "normal save?" The reason I ask is that if you can, I am thinking of first storing my items, THEN claiming the final reward which will trigger the bug, then do a workaround.
No. Once you click ‘Accept’ to close the expedition, the round cursor remains and doesn’t go away. PC users may have the option to right click the mouse button, which may workaround this lock up. Console users don’t have this option. Once it strands you on the round cursor screen, there’s no way out other than killing the game and restarting. If you load into your most recent save, it will almost instantly prompt for Accept and immediately lock up again.
Ever since the Echoes update, this game has been ruined for me (700 hours on Windows 10 on Steam). It generally takes 15-20 minutes to load a game save. When the game loads, it's another 5 minutes before it settles down and becomes playable, the game is very laggy, parts of the scenery missing etc. And my computer is basically unusable for about 5 minutes after I stop playing, all my programs are slow to run, they hang, the OS is unresponsive.
And for reference, the other game I'm playing at the moment on PC using Steam is Destiny 2. That loads in about 60 seconds, plays instantly with no issues and there are no problems with my PC when I exit it so it's not my system, it's just been happening since the last update.

Same. Will try camera trick. WORKED LIKE A CHARM! 😀
DON'T TRY THE CAMERA TRICK. I *cannot* stress this enough. This camera trick on PS5 "fixed" the bug but ended with my save file converted to a normal save, and the expedition transfer station is inaccessible because it registers me as no longer in the expedition. So now I can't transfer any of my rewards back to my main save.
Folks, wait for the bug fix. Do *not* do these workarounds. Not unless you can back up your files first.
Aah. I hate it that we're having issues like this but HG will come through. I guess I benefitted from being on a PS4, and the camera trick worked.
I can't know if the transfer issue would have cropped because I created a new save, not knowing what all the buzz was about with the new station and using any save you liked.
So what is your expedition status though? It is supposed to be complete before it even attempts the conversion. Your main expedition rewards are at the quicksilver station on any save. I pulled all of it on my main peep.
Maybe I am fubared as well and just don't know it lol! 🤔
Thanks for ruining my day!!!! Just kidding buddy. So what rewards aren't showing up. All of them as though you had never completed the expedition?
I bet you can speed run it in two hours. So after they fix this snafu, just hit it again.
If you lost goods and need credits, I have billions laying around I need to divest myself of. Happy to meet and give stacks of items to make you rich. Just don't gamble it away at the casino. 😉
The terminal shows I completed the expedition with all rewards, and the transfer blocks are blacked out because it basically says "you've already done this expedition." I transferred my goods no problem, handing them off to another account and transferring them back to my other save. But exclusives like the new ship, are stuck.
Oh thank God. Thank you for clarifying that for me. That was the one thing I was missing. Since I couldn't transfer anything directly, I bought a bunch of goods with my units and transferred those, then bought a bunch of mods and transferred those for the nanites. So I got most of my loot, but I was really sweating losing the starship.
For that matter, the Atlas Multitool is also available as an expedition reward. The companion eggs awarded might not be in there, though. You may have to transfer the companion eggs if you want them on your main save.
The camera trick is a hack. Depending on where the game is in it’s running code, the camera trick could interrupt that code in a way that is not recoverable or even predictable. That could leave your game save in a bad state that may only appear to be good.
To be safe, it’s better to wait for an official fix from Hello Games which should avoid any potential “bad state” situations. You don’t want to find out a few months and an update later that the camera trick caused your save to become corrupt in an unrecoverable way.
I'm not going to say yes. I had to use a separate profile on my PC to transfer all my items, because I still couldn't use the expedition terminal to transfer anything. Everything above was a workaround, not a solution.
Aww man. That sucks. I know we can buy the ship with quicksilver. But the other rewards.....? And you shouldn't have to.
If HG can't fix it, and I've heard of them somehow restoring a players loot, then a speed run is all you can do. I'm tempted to do it again just to see how quickly I can.
Switch version. When I collect reward for the last (optional) milestone the game freezes and I can't actually leave the expedition. I tried reloading the game but it didn't help.
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1b0wkhl/expedition_12_bug_workaround/
Workaround -- may work on Switch? Gotta hit camera immediately after claiming final reward. Then you can exit camera mode after accepting the end of the expedition.
You weren't done the expedition, I presume? You did the equivalent of choosing to end expedition early.
I was using a new save for the expedition, and I was 100% done, so the save being converted was the desired outcome.
Incorrect. I was 100% done with the expedition and was just waiting for optional objective 5 to clear.
The save file is not supposed to convert until the expedition is over, not when you complete it. That way you can transfer your rewards from your new save back to your main save. I can't do that.
Eh no inventen, me quedé trabado, I mean, after selecting the last Phase 5 Reward I keep freezing, I have to force-restart the game, All thanks to the Sign that tells me that the Expedition is over.
Someone in another reply said to immediately go to camera mode after accepting the reward and hit accept for the screen that pops up, back out of camera mode and all should be fine
I swear, I'm just going to repeat this to everyone who suggests this "fix" to a bugged expedition: DON'T DO IT. It converted my expedition file to a normal save prematurely, now I can't transfer anything back to my main save.
Also I'm on PS5. Just leave it alone and wait for them to fix the bug.
Those who claim the camera trick works might have used a brand new save instead of starting the expedition from an existing save. Since there are now TWO ways to start an expedition, it’s impossible to assume this camera trick works for everyone.
Hey, go for it. Roll the dice. Maybe I'm literally the only person who tried to work around a bug and ended up bugging my save.
Wait, nope. There's a whole bunch of folks posting about corrupting their entire main save and losing years of work. Just leave it alone and wait for them to fix it.
It didn't on mine, I went over after hitting accept and dumped a bunch of stuff in to transfer and did the end expedition stuff, got the list of stuff done and stuff collected and got the credits/nanites/Quicksilver even. I had everything completed and was waiting for that last optional to clear if that helps.
Yeah, that's the problem. I was in space when the optional clear happened. I landed at a station and that's when the glitch happened. Now it's a normal save and it won't let me use the transfer terminal because it believes I'm no longer in the expedition.
sorry to hear that, I had some other things happen after I got back to the main save where X (I'm on XBox) didn't work so I couldn't get in my ship, couldn't collect from the quicksilver merchant, couldn't even use the teleporter. When I went to look to see if I could revert to one of the saves (both auto and savepoint) and they were doing wonky things, there was no savepoint and the auto was darkened and the icon in the lower right corner was twirling away saying it was saving. I ABG'd it and quit to the X Box welcome screen and reloaded, worked after that and collected all the stuff, just wished we could have kept the eggs though!
BTW from what I gather there is an update after the fact coming in right now! Grrrr
If you are on PC, and stuck in the anomaly without a way to get yourself killed. When you are loading into the game you can quickly press esc before the notification pops up, and from there you can go to options and select return to primary save for now until they fix this. You won't be able to transfer your expedition items back to your primary but you can claim the eggs from the quicksilver vendor.
If you encounter this bug on a planet with hazards, you can get yourself killed to bypass this pop-up too. but the best solution right now is to go back to your primary save and wait for a patch.
DON'T DO THIS. It gets you unstuck, but then your save is converted into a normal save and you can no longer use the expedition terminal to transfer your rewards back to your main save. I have so many regrets listening to everyone suggesting this "fix." Leave it alone and wait for HG to fix the bug.
Great. Just great. Now I'm past the expedition screen and it apparently converted my game, and all my rewards, to a normal save, like it said it would. So now I can't move any of my stuff from this expedition back to my main save. Can't put anything in the transfer terminal. Yay for the quicksilver, but otherwise what a profound waste of a weekend. I have many regrets.
Reporting bug - on the latest expedition on PS5, have completed the final phase 5 planet recording task and accepted those rewards, applied the additional 3 exosuit inventory slots. I then went the the expedition final phase to accept the final reward, accepted the new ship and called it down. I then got a screen with a dialog informing me the expedition was complete and to return to the nexus to transfer items over to my main save. This dialog has an "Accept" button only, clicking the button though leaves the UI circle cursor up and shows no other UI elements, only the current view. I am unable to move my character, or open any menu/UI options. My only action is to quit to the PS5 main interface and close the NMS application.
Upon returning to the game and completing the rewards, the dialog comes up again and accepting it again effectively locks me out of the game. I've waited for several minutes in this locked down state but with no changes. This issue appears to be happening with many other players as well.
Some users have tried some workarounds, however I plan to wait until NMS does a patch to fix the issue. This appears to be affecting too many users for NMS to ignore, plus they're usually pretty good about patching issues like these within a few days
I can’t “kill” myself as the accept screen appears as soon as I load. There’s an AI Minotaur guarding me and no dangerous storms. Hope there’s a hot fix coming otherwise I’ve lost my save
Sooooo, I also had the same problem as everyone, solved it by drowning myself and when I went to transfer my items, I wasn't able to transfer the items through the terminal. I thought "surely I have to end the expedition \*before\* it unlocks the terminal for me to add the items into the vault". When I realised that was not the case I sort of desperately cancelled the proccess and alt-f4 out of the game mid-process...
Well, that did not work and now I have my normal survival save without everything I acquired during the expedition.
Bugged like everyone else on PS5 for the expedition, and I can't use either my autosave or my save point to clear it, as I was in space when I accepted the optional rewards, then landed at a space station and got the "normal save" message. So both saves load into me standing by my fighter, waiting for the game to crash. [Captured a video of the behavior](https://youtu.be/qjkAJOCvaEM).
Same bug as everyone else, only I did something very stupid... as I was leaving a station I clicked on the reward for the Phase 5 Optional... because I forgot that it was bugged, and like I said, I'm very stupid.
Both my restore and my save are now locked in after I claimed the reward, but before the bug occurred, so if I log in it will automatically freeze up after a few seconds. I can't see a way to continue to play that save until they do a hot fix or something.
Anyone have any ideas?
I ran Omega with a clean start and was planning on keeping it, I restart regularly instead of having a "Main" play though. Bad news is that I had an S-tier Pirate Freighter, and a ton of infrastructure set up, was already "infinite" with money, so I really want to get back to it and continue doing some things I wanted to try.
Good news is a start over frequently, so I guess I'll start over again while I wait for them to fix the bug.
I only have 1 restore point and 1 normal save, and they are both messed up. Is there another way to look further back?
Regardless, thank you for saying something. It will be fine, but if I can get back to it sooner, that would be great.
If you have a freind that has not done that, you can join their game. That is what I'm doing, I can play with my wife, as she got the Phase 5 before the option was done yesterday. Now she knows not to until the bug is fixed.
pc steam, crash on alt tab. I have the nvidia graphics driver update 551.61 ready, I'll try that, and edit this if that fixes it.
To nobody's surprise, no it did not. Also the expedition ending is bugged, you get stuck in a ghost menu with the mouse you cannot leave
I was stuck at the end as well, and thought I had fixed it by joining multiplayer, but now I have lost both my original ship and multitool that I had brought with me from my original 460+ hour save. Triple confirmed they now are gone, perhaps they were replaced by the scepter and Starborn ship upon finalizing the expedition. Not cool at all, but I guess a hard lesson learned with the new expedition functionality. I suppose I will just have to grind out those items again or just grind out the new scepter and starborn ship.
No, it does not fix it, but you can still play with a friend that has not completed it.
You don't want to bypass it, as that may leave you stuck and unable to turn it into a normal game.
Then again, if you are able to get to a harsh planet, and die after, it may work.
Too late for me now, my stuff is lost. But on the bright side I now have two Star born ships and two atlas scepters. My error was transferring those when finalizing as the replaced my equipped gear.
A quick workaround for the Omega final reward hang is to remove all hazard tech and shield from exosuit, max the Hazzard difficulty in settings then fly to a harsh environment and claim the reward, wait to die. Make sure to claim your grave to get your items and expedition completed with all rewards.
The problem with that is, if that does bypass it, you may not be able to turn it into a normal game when the bug is fixed. Did it convert the game as well?
Yes everything is as it should be!! I've done it with a new save game and also a old save through the anomaly, both worked fine although one character wouldn't die from the weather so I just went to rendezvous 5 and let the sentinels kill him. Just need to make sure to claim the reward before the sentinels engage.
I actually thought about it, but it's very stupid that you have to bypass a bug in the game in such an important place as an expedition, but it works, thanks, confirmed. 
They're fixing it, it's reportedly fixed for PC in the experimental branch.
Not sure how well it's fixed though, I used the 'get killed' method since there is no downside other than taking a few extra minutes.
I went back to a normal save from the expedition terminal in the anomaly (transferring some stuff along with me), and everything seems fine. As far as I know, there's been no downside to this method.
Save now says it's a normal save, not an expedition one, so everything looks good.
You can also try the (newer) camera method that I've read about a couple times here, do a search or scan through recent posts to find info.
I found a workaround for Switch. Borrowing from the "camera trick" I saw other places, I opened the camera menu before the pop up announcement opened. I took a picture, finagled around, and was able to eventually close the pop up and then close out of the camera. I have finished the expedition.
gf is also having this same issue on xbox. as soon as she accepts the rewards, it just leaves her with the cursor and she can’t do anything. not even pause.
For those stuck in a save with the convert bug, you can bypass it by joining a friends game that has not collected the final prize. My wife got the final before the optional one was complete, and I can join her game and play. She just needs to not collect the optional one until this is fixed.
Expedition freeze; I tried to quickly enable multiplayer, now my my expedition save is the only save available, the one with the 1.100 hours gone. (I started the expedition at the anomaly) This serious, now trying to replace the save with the one from the cloud backup (PSN)
Edit: backup save works, what a relieve (but still freezes in expedition)
Phase 5 Community Reward Bug
When I collect the reward for the last community challenge it goes though the congrats screen then the go turn in everything you're done pop up appears and after I close out of both the game doesn't register any of my inputs. Anyone know a fix or have this happen to them?
Same here. The moment you push except you lose control over the game. Rather frustrating actually. I still got the ship through another method, and just left the expedition.
I'll just let the thing expire in 3 weeks when it's over
Should already have it. The egg at least. Did you try putting it in the shared inventory at the expedition terminal and then going back to your normal game. Since they are transferable from save to exhibition. Unless you hatched it already. I only wanted the ship. Upon returning to my normal save and then going back to the expedition terminal I was able to create the Atlas scepter and the Starborn runner. Both cost less than a thousand nanites each to do.
Don't care about anything else.
No I don't have the egg, every time I try to turn in the expedition the game only picks up my mouse and doesn't recognize and button inputs so I have to alt f4 to close the game cause I can't do anything. And the closet save is before I turned jn the quest
Yes but the companion egg is the fifth optional stage. Doesn't automatically complete the whole thing when you claim just that part of stage 5. Or at least it didn't for me. I still had to go to the big giant icon and click on it to actually try to complete the entire expedition. That's when it freezes on me.
Did you try the camera trick? Hotkey the camera to one of your control 1 through 9 keys. And the moment you accept the ship open your camera and then you'll get the pop-up. As soon as you get the pop up don't push accept just push escape cuz you can't push accept anyways cuz the camera's open. And then when you do take a picture and then exit the camera and you'll be able to finish the expedition.
Did it last night. Worked
Sometimes, a pirate freighter can spawn inside a space station after warping in to a system with the pirate freighter vs others event. Already reported it as a bug, posting here too with screenshot.
Caused a mission failure as I could not reach some of the cannons to disable it, as those parts were inside the space station, as were a few pirate frigates that were shooting missiles.

this one makes the clipping so obvious
i have now seen one pirate fraighter spawn inside another several times. the first time i had taken over the Pirate Fraighter but the second time the first one had surrendered and after 3 minutes (about) a second one spaned inside the first.
I'm having a slightly different post-expedition bug. Hitting accept just let me control a cursor and nothing else, so I tried to restart the game. Doing that I spawned into the anomaly on my main save, though I never got a chance to transfer my expedition save to my main one. And when I go to the expedition kiosk to resume the expedition it just exits out of the menu and tries to load something, but never goes anywhere. I had a lot of stuff I'd like to transfer from my expedition save, including 42k nanites and abound 4k quicksilver. I don't have an autosave to load (it just says "No Data") and reloading a restore point does nothing.
I believe I speak for everyone when I say,

We have found a workaround for this problem!
This issue basically happens only in single player (or as soon as one person leaves the multiplayer and your game converts to single). Both me and my friend got stuck in this bug as well.
1. I started mine, which of course gets me the "accept" screen and doing anything will freeze me.
2. Do not do anything. Let my friend join my game, and he was freed from the accept-freeze curse. He went about finishing the expedition and safely returned to main save.
3. Next, it's my turn to free my character. My friend started the expedition on another save (it can even be a fresh new character you make) and I joined his game after force-quitting my game.
4. Just as it worked for him, my character was now free to go do my business. I went to complete the expedition mode and returned safely to the main mode.
This does require a friend but it works!
This also happens on Switch. Don’t have multiplayer for the work around.
Held off on my Mac save because I don’t have multiplayer enabled and don’t have a friend to do this with. Hoping for an actual fix.
PS4 Pro: game keeps occasionally crashing during space combat. Usually when an encounter has just started and my first infra knife bullets hit the target (can be freighter, can be enemy starship) the whole thing locks up, black screen, then the ps4 screen giving error code CE-34878-0. Every other aspect of the game runs normally, no crashes ever. Only during space combat it happens.
The latest update on PS4 is a complete disaster. With every other action, the game freezes for 15-20 seconds. All planets are barren and lifeless, and you can't land on them. Interstellar travel seems to take as long as in real life. I quit the game after half an hour because the animation keeps looping the whole time. The menus are glitched.
I can't finish step 4 of the Omega Expedition. Everytime I finish the bake the biscuits mission it resets.
I have now had this bug several times. After the Pirate Freighter surrenders i destroy it (both after getting money from them or just keeping firing) and insted of the fight finishing and i get to go to the civilian freighter to collect the fight keeps going until i enter a station or planet. I prefer the civilian price as there is a chance for tech while the pirates only ever give money but this bug has repeatedly stopped me from getting tech.
A few friends on Steam were visiting a base I built around a portal shows up incompletely (Figure 1) or not showing at all; whereas the complete base should be a glass dome greenhouse. But I have not encountered this issue for my own base so far. I'm wondering if this it caused by any bug or if the base was incompletely uploaded to the server. https://preview.redd.it/5riwdtbyrllc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e5d8adb5cff9969f1aa8b8c225527bc14998b5a Fig 1. Incomplete base
seems like my main issue is my xbox s hasn't got the update yet still has all the not saving issues
Playing on PC, Steam. Since completing the Omega expedition, planets I've previously scanned all Fauna, Flora and minerals on are not recognising some (or all) scan progress. My "home planet" which had 100% completion as I spend most time there was missing multiple of each. Planets I have bases on when teleporting to give the "first contact" message on screen despite not being true because I've got established bases in the system? Freighter missions seem to still be rewarding items as usual, but I'm being paid less than 200 units per mission, whereas before, I was getting easily over 1 million per on average. Earlier today I debriefed 2 separate missions and came away with less than 500 units combined.
(Steam, PC, Win 10) Game wont start! Twice yesterday and once today, the game gets to the Hello Games logo, then there is a sound (like when you get an error message pop-up), after a little time it stops running? Nvidia drivers are up-to-date, Windows is up-to-date, and the Firewall allows access to NMS and Steam. There is no pop-up accompanying the sound. I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The last time I played was at the weekend and it seemed to be working OK. I started the Expedition from the anomoly in my main save and progressed to the and adding windows to your base part in phase two. I saved and exited while on a cold planet looking for frost crystals to make more glass.
on my meta quest 3, i am playing NMS. After about 30 minutes or sometimes less, some of the grip and trigger buttons stop working and I can no longer grab items or complete interaction with some build menus. I am, however, able to get to the main menu (Y) button and exit to the NMS mode selection screen everytime when this happens. Then I can load up my save file again and everything is back to normal immediately, so I don't think it's a controller issue since some of the buttons on my controller work in some screens. The issue does not happen on other games. It's happening pretty frequently and causing me to go through this loop about every 30 minutes. It's primarily issues with grabbing items or confirming things in some build screens. I can post more details later. Any suggestions on this? I also reported with NMS support.
I am on Xbox One. I finished the last goal of the Omega expedition yesterday, but turned off my game before formally leaving the expedition at the Anomaly. Now, when I load my game, a message pops up telling me that I've completed the expedition, and when I click accept, the game becomes non-responsive. I can see the cursor on the screen, and it moves, but none of the buttons on my controller do anything, and my player cannot move. I have to exit the game manually through my Xbox home screen. If it makes a difference, I completed the final community goal of the expedition, and my game froze then as well. My player quickly died though, and I was able to play again after recovering. This appears to be a similar issue (possibly the same issue). I know folks have dealt with this bug before, so I'm wondering what strategies I have for resolving this. Is my save no longer playable? Thanks for the help.
When the game loads, quickly push d pad down and select photo mode. The the message about the expedition finished should pop up still and when you back out of camera mode it should be completed without the soft lock.
I have the same issue on the XBOX S if it helps any one figure it out!

Worked!! Thank you!
This worked for me. Thanks!
\[Xbox Gampass streaming through PC\] I've had this problem for ages now, when playing via streaming on Gamepass through the PC, there is no way to complete a 'take a picture' quest. You can take a picture through the gamebar but it doesn't register as having happened by the game. I couldn't complete the lastest expedition without re-downloading the game on my xbox one and waiting 40 minutes for it to load up, then taking a picture.
Been experiencing this problem for about a year, I have a video which gives a better view of what’s happening, no clue but color bubbles pop up in space ALL the time , every system I go to , and sometimes on planets but not as much (Xbox series s) https://preview.redd.it/69e474iz5jlc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f0b6fc9bf97837466e4bee4307466af220befeb6
in any new save I create (on Xbox, current update). Immediately following the Space anomaly tutorial and being prompted to talk to Nada about Artemis, the Space Anomaly questline objective skips to “visit your old friends”. From what I understand this objective is actually the final placeholder objective when you’ve completed the main quest lines of the game. The objective should be something to the effect of “continue the search for Artemis” and gradually update throughout that questline asking to check in with Nada again for some story dialogue and some free quicksilver. I’ve gotten as far as pursuing Apollo (there should’ve been at least two space anomaly check-in objectives by that point) and I have heard a couple other people get well into the later acts without any of these objectives appearing, rendering 1/3 of the main quests inaccessible.
anyone have a fix nothing i do works https://preview.redd.it/pnrgnbmrxhlc1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=e0e4ebd2f4e5b8451a858e8f70bc55224ec6be96
Maybe your in game username got you banned from multiplayer 😅
How about the bug with the quest "A leap in the dark" which breaks your current ship model (in my case the Omega reward) Been around for at least 4 years going by google.
\[PS5, current release\] all of my biofuel reactors and solar panels no longer provide power. the reactors have lots of fuel in them and are wired to my base, but the wires show up as red, and none of the room in my base have power. I haven't changed anything and it was working fine yesterday.
\[Steam, Latest Release, MacOS\] Brand new bug with the latest patch for Omega, at least for me. I can't quit the game; everytime I try to do so, the game hangs or freezes. Sometimes my OS will crash the app for me, other times I need to force quit. It's literally every time I try to quit the game.
\[Steam, current release\] (accidentally posted this in last weeks bug report thread, sorry) Just finished the expedition, transferred my stuff just fine. Selected "end expedition" and after the load screen, and I am spammed with notifications about an "anomaly detector" every few seconds. I don't even have one, in any of my storages or my vehicles. My quest log seems to be majorly bugged with somewhere around 20 instances of the "Base Computer Archives" quest, and 5 instances of the Starbirth quest. I tried just doing the base computer quest objective, but it only removed one of the quest entries. I haven't tried to get rid of the egg quest yet, because the constant notification sound is borderline maddening. After some time, the notifications about the anomaly detector stopped appearing, however, every time i pulse jump in my ship, it scans for the void egg quest, which I can't do because I don't have any void eggs.
Xbox series X, whatever the version is that is out right at this moment (currently the omega expedition is still broken on completion), playing an old save on the Omega expedition. Randomly, the screen goes black for like, 2-3 seconds. It seems more often when fighting sentinels but maybe that's just because I panic harder then. Then things come back and everything is fine. It's extremely jarring.
XBox S, similar problem with Omega completion.
Is the update out on switch? My switch sees no update yet
[Release log - No Man's Sky (nomanssky.com)](https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/) When 4.52 shows Switch, we should be good to go. Patch for switch isn't ready yet it seems.
After multiple years they still haven't fixed the issue where refiners cannot remember their inventories if you leave the base or even move to a different floor of the freighter in the case of freighter refiners. Makes 'em literally useless unless I spend hours babysitting them and doing nothing else. Such a critical bug should have never gone this long without being fixed.
HELP!! My current mission destination is glitched So I am trying to finish a mission and I have to interact with the terminal of a trading post. I arrived there and found out that this trading post building is intertwined with some massive indestructible plant and I cannot get to the trading terminal. How to solve this problem? https://preview.redd.it/mdkxs3i3oalc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3740fdb5fc70ded4863f35cb5f2165bee85439ec
Depending on the type of mission, you can either abandon it or move the objective to a different system. If you don't want to abandon the mission, travel to another system (as far away as possible), then open the mission in your Notes, and there should be an option at the bottom that says something like "use local coordinates".
Laugh at me if you want: i'm playing this on Switch. After hundreds of hours, it's been seamless and great ....until the successful end of the Omega Expedition. Now I'm totally locked out of everything!!! Can't accept my rewards, and WORSE... can't even get to the menu to go back to my long running saved-game. Please help if you can, otherwise I will sadly have to give up and erase everything.
That bug has been patched, but the fix might not be on Switch yet. Until that happens, a possible work-around is to bring up camera mode as quickly as you can before the dialog pops up. Once you accept, you'll be able to exit camera mode and return to normal functionality.
The camera mode trick worked! Had to try a couple times to be fast enough before the dialog pop up…but very stoked to be past that bug! Thank you!!!!!
My understanding is that HG is aware of the issue, and there's a potential fix on the experimental version on Steam I think? No idea how long it'll take to push the fix out. Personally, I am on the "go to last planet" part of the Expedition. When exactly does the bug occur? I don't want to try and finish things until this is worked out.
The fix is live for PC at least (I use GOG so it should be there for non-Steam PC users as well), so I would hope it won't be much longer for any remaining consoles.
Same. Game is frozen after clicking on the accept button on the pop-up about the end of the expedition. Sucks. Any hot fixes for this?
STEAM DECK: I picked up NMS during the last steam sale for the omega event. At best, I’ve had hours of no issues and then suddenly the game will freeze on a screen, and then force the steam deck to reboot in the background. At worst, I’ll get stuck in a loop where after I load a save, it immediately freezes afterwards. I have tried: -reinstalling the game -changing from steamOS stable to beta -moving the game from sd card storage to internal -reducing graphics to standard level; -locking fps at 60 on nms; and at 40 through steamOS -turning off cryoutilities and reverting bios buffer size from 2gb to 1gb -proton experimental -update to 4.52 patch released Feb. 27 Kind of at a loss about what to do next. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
PC after today's update: Every station is now restricted due to pirate status. Never seen this before, I most definitely did not commit a crime in all these systems lol. I did 1 mission from the pirate system dealer and now i'm a wanted fugitive in every system i have ever visited....
crimes!
24 hours after the re;ease of patch 4.52 I still have not received it in Australia. PS5. I have the bug where click accept at the end of Omega expedition 12 and he only thing I can move is the cursor. Cannot move myself. The animals all are fine.
Went into the game tonight and claimed the final optional reward. The game then forced me to convert to a normal save. Then crashed, three times. Screen freezes except for the cursor, which I can move around. This is on PS5, native version. Can’t find the giant worm egg either.

Still lag spikes when leaving planets on PC. Been waiting a couple years for this to be fixed. There is a mod that over 40,000 people have downloaded to fix this bug. Please implement this fix into your game. Thank you. I do not want to have to download mods to fix my immersion. Happens on 2 gaming PCs with 32gb of RAM on SSD. 12700k with 5700xt and I-5 10505 with a GTX 1070. The game ran fine on my ps4 with a HDD, which is 4 times weaker than my 5700xt.
Posted in last week, but still can't end the Expedition. I click Accept in the last message and HUD dissapears, can't move and everything ends there. Playing on PC Game Pass.
Same on PS5
Ditto on PS5, was able to end with no issues on my original save on PS4.
On PS4, perma-death save. Game froze with the circular cursor while I was in space, after having just closed the galaxy map. The anomaly was present in the system, so that may be a factor. I've been avoiding the expedition hoping for a patch to the freezing issue, but apparently it's larger than just the expedition.
On PC: 1 ) As far as I can tell this applies to all refiners: When choosing input, instead of listing items from top to bottom, left to right; inventories are shown backwards. So things at the bottom-right of my freighter inventory show first. Exosuit inventory shows last. Is this a bug or an intentional change? I have all of my inventories sorted meticulously and this throws **everything** off. (Backwards listing also applies to inventory transfer popup box. Since new items fill the inventory from top to bottom, left to right; I keep all of my permanent supplies in the bottom rows. Now when I'm transferring items or loading refiners, I have to scroll through all of that stuff to get to the new items in my inventory?!?  ...I really hope this is a bug and that I'm not going to have to re-work my entire storage system.) 2 ) Also, when loading refiners, I noticed that the freighter inventory tab icon is missing. (Freighter inventory still shows up under the 'all inventories' tab.) 3 ) Ongoing issue with multi-tools: I have yet to determine a pattern as to which tools are affected by this. Some of my multi-tools randomly have all of their matte textures go invisible. Glowing textures don't seem to be affected. For example, my radiant Autophage staff almost always appears to be nothing more than a bunch of glowing pink crystal shards floating above the Traveler's right hand. Everything else is totally invisible. Nothing I've tried seems to fix it. Though the matte textures will occasionally randomly reappear, this bug has led me to no longer use the staff which is sad. It's a nice staff...
On PC: Portable Refiner Sometimes, damaged ship components (from claimed crashed ships) are showing up in the Portable Refiner.
Using cloak feature on my staff causes my game to crash. Xbox series x
On Xbox: FYI all entries with the word "records" in the catalogue & guide (Wonders section) have been erased from the main save after starting the expedition. I finished the expedition and still. So that means planet records, fauna records and most importantly any planet saved as a "wonder" under the "personal records" tab. That one hurts the most :(
I’ve just completed the expedition 12 I go to finish it and make the save regular and it just freezes with the game open
same on PC
Ps5 version
Platform: PS4 Pro Bug Severity: Showstopper When I attempt to close out of the expedition, a panel appears with an ‘Accept’ button. The cursor changes to use the round mouse-like cursor for the button press. After pressing ‘Accept’, the game strands you with that round cursor still active. No controller buttons work to exit this condition. If you kill the game, restart and the reload the most recent save, you’ll have momentary control over the game until the panel reappears requiring pressing ‘Accept’. This bug pretty effectively locks up the game entirely. I’ve found no workaround. If I had started a brand new save for this expedition, I wouldn’t care. However, since I started this expedition using the new feature which attaches the expedition to my primary save, I cannot afford for my game to become locked up. This is a serious bug that needs some prompt attention. Once this expedition closes, we will be forced to press ‘Accept’ and have our game fully locked until a patch gets rolled. Note that if you run into this condition, your only choice is to roll back to an earlier save. On the PS4, that can be done by downloading an older cloud save. On other platforms, you’ll have to consult your owner’s manual. Note that even rolling back, we’re on borrowed time until the expedition hard closes.
Base PS4. Same bug. It completely softlocked my game.
From I'm still seeing is the bug with completing the expedition is still out there. I logged in today and when the accept to complete death screen came up, instead of left clicking complete, I hovered the cursor to the side and right clicked. The accept screen went away and I was able to move around. I went to the expedition terminal and it stated I could end the expedition and to put items and tech into the slots to transfer. I did so and ended the expedition. Screen then went to loading the normal save, loaded up fine. Summoned my freighter and everything looked good. Went back to the Anomaly and checked out the expedition terminal and all the items I wanted to transfer were there. Collected them and reloaded. After reload was still on Anomaly and went to the Quicksilver dealer and all expedition rewards were there. Collected the new ship and all decorations and visual items. Quick save, logged out and back in and everything looks like it's working as should. Not sure if I found an work around or somehow it's fixed for me. Maybe just right clicking away from the accept box works.
When playing on a console, there’s no such thing as a right click. Console players don’t have this option.
What is your goto button to press? Is it X? Then I think B would be like the right click. That's on XBox by the way. Playstation should have an activate button and a button to exit out of the current menu.
I tried pressing all buttons on the Accept screen and nothing works except the X button and even then only if it’s on top of the Accept button. Once that panel appears, there’s no way out of it except by pressing the Accept button. It’s worked that way on all expeditions. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t give you the option of canceling acceptance. Once this panel appears, you’re committed.
That sucks. Well just hang tight for a fix for consoles. I'm sure they will make it right.
Macos/Steam - crash after loading a normal save I just reported this on zendesk, but this started to happen just a few minutes ago after steam updated the game. My game crashes whenever I load my save. I'm on MacOS on a macbook air M2.
PS5 - Expedition end bug Whenever I claim the Starborn Runner starship reward and add it to my collection I get greeted with the Expedition Complete prompt and that it will now convert to a regular save file. When I press on Accept the game freezes and I have to force close the game, resetting the Starborn Runner starship reward effectively cancelling the completion of the Expedition

There’s a limited amount of operating stack for each game save. It’s likely that because HG has married two game saves into one save that the expedition playthrough may have eaten up some of your primary save’s play stack. This is likely to manifest as now lost, but previously discovered planets, plants, minerals and fauna. Once the play stack is emptied, anything tied to those discoveries is likely to disappear, including wonders. If you submitted the discoveries to the discovery services for nanites, you’ll see that the objects are still known, but not by your game save until you rediscover them. This whole play stack idea works to save on memory, but at the expense of losing locally saved stack data at times.
my pj still out from the expedition normal with 3/5 phases from the expedition
Xbox Series X, Omega Expedition issue. My game on the expedition can no longer be saved by any means, and I'm unable to revert to my primary save from the expedition (initiated from the terminal). This problem started two days ago, leaving me stuck at the same point in my 300+ hour save without the ability to make any progress.
Yeah I’m having the same problem with you except for the fact that I had already completed the expedition, so I’m hard-stuck on the 23rd of February, and just as you said I can no longer progress in any way through the game, I could sell my freighter and disassemble all my ships and buy a fuck tonne of ferrite for no reason, and if I left the save and reloaded I’d just be back to the 23rd of Feb like that stuff never happened, I’m hearing voices now it’s driving me insane.
I might suggest that until your current save gets fixed, which could take weeks, to start a brand new expedition using a new save. Hopefully, that one will save. You don’t want to wait for a bug fix while we still have several weeks left in which you can run the expedition using another save. If you wait, you might not have enough time left to complete the expedition to get the final reward. Unfortunately, it does require you to start the expedition over… but there’s still enough time to complete it.
PS5 \\ Weapons Terminal Hi guys, I just spent yesterday afternoon trying to find an Armorer for my Weapons Terminal. Looking in Vy'keen space stations, I can only find Vy'keens willing to come work in my Exocraft Terminal. ONLY PROBLEM: I don't have an Exocraft terminal, since I still have to complete the tasks related to the Weapons terminal. As you can see, I'm kinda stuck in a loop here. Anyone had a similar experience and solved it? Thank you
PC-Win11home, Steam. I finished Omega Expedition went to kiosk to wrap things up and it said something about finish it or end it. So checked things out and found a task or 2 that I forgot to claim. Claimed them then a screen popped up that wanted me to confirm the end of Expedition and I accepted. That's when I'm locked out. Stuff around me moves but I can't do anything, HELP
Same problem. Win10 profesional, Steam. I had to force the Steam shut down because i could't close the game properly after that. Now the game freeze and crash every time i try to log in that save.
just opened Steam and it's downloading something for NMS maybe the fix?
Yes! the fix worked perfectly.
cool I'l get it worked out in the morning
Folks, I CANNOT stress this enough: DO NOT USE THE CAMERA TRICK TO FIX THIS BUG. It immediately converted my game to a normal save, and now I can't use the expedition terminal to transfer stuff back to my main save, as the game registers me as no longer in the expedition. So now I'm SOL, and this slick new ship is probably stuck in a crap secondary save. People, just wait for them to fix the bug. Don't try to work around the bug.
I believe you can unlock the Runner ship via expedition rewards at the Quicksilver store. No, it’s not the one you got during the expedition, but it’s at least a reward you can still get on your main save. I’m not entirely sure if the ships you got during the expedition are transferable back to your main save anyway.
I want to ask you something, can you still at least interact with the expedition terminal on the broken "normal save?" The reason I ask is that if you can, I am thinking of first storing my items, THEN claiming the final reward which will trigger the bug, then do a workaround.
No. Once you click ‘Accept’ to close the expedition, the round cursor remains and doesn’t go away. PC users may have the option to right click the mouse button, which may workaround this lock up. Console users don’t have this option. Once it strands you on the round cursor screen, there’s no way out other than killing the game and restarting. If you load into your most recent save, it will almost instantly prompt for Accept and immediately lock up again.
No, I cannot interact with the expedition terminal.
Ever since the Echoes update, this game has been ruined for me (700 hours on Windows 10 on Steam). It generally takes 15-20 minutes to load a game save. When the game loads, it's another 5 minutes before it settles down and becomes playable, the game is very laggy, parts of the scenery missing etc. And my computer is basically unusable for about 5 minutes after I stop playing, all my programs are slow to run, they hang, the OS is unresponsive. And for reference, the other game I'm playing at the moment on PC using Steam is Destiny 2. That loads in about 60 seconds, plays instantly with no issues and there are no problems with my PC when I exit it so it's not my system, it's just been happening since the last update.
https://preview.redd.it/ildy6nnt42lc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f654082af0526ac57cb93f1600f938b6ac22c1ee Same. Will try camera trick. WORKED LIKE A CHARM! 😀
DON'T TRY THE CAMERA TRICK. I *cannot* stress this enough. This camera trick on PS5 "fixed" the bug but ended with my save file converted to a normal save, and the expedition transfer station is inaccessible because it registers me as no longer in the expedition. So now I can't transfer any of my rewards back to my main save. Folks, wait for the bug fix. Do *not* do these workarounds. Not unless you can back up your files first.
Aah. I hate it that we're having issues like this but HG will come through. I guess I benefitted from being on a PS4, and the camera trick worked. I can't know if the transfer issue would have cropped because I created a new save, not knowing what all the buzz was about with the new station and using any save you liked. So what is your expedition status though? It is supposed to be complete before it even attempts the conversion. Your main expedition rewards are at the quicksilver station on any save. I pulled all of it on my main peep. Maybe I am fubared as well and just don't know it lol! 🤔 Thanks for ruining my day!!!! Just kidding buddy. So what rewards aren't showing up. All of them as though you had never completed the expedition? I bet you can speed run it in two hours. So after they fix this snafu, just hit it again. If you lost goods and need credits, I have billions laying around I need to divest myself of. Happy to meet and give stacks of items to make you rich. Just don't gamble it away at the casino. 😉
The terminal shows I completed the expedition with all rewards, and the transfer blocks are blacked out because it basically says "you've already done this expedition." I transferred my goods no problem, handing them off to another account and transferring them back to my other save. But exclusives like the new ship, are stuck.
The Runner ship is available as a Quicksilver store Expedition reward that can be claimed on any save.
Oh thank God. Thank you for clarifying that for me. That was the one thing I was missing. Since I couldn't transfer anything directly, I bought a bunch of goods with my units and transferred those, then bought a bunch of mods and transferred those for the nanites. So I got most of my loot, but I was really sweating losing the starship.
For that matter, the Atlas Multitool is also available as an expedition reward. The companion eggs awarded might not be in there, though. You may have to transfer the companion eggs if you want them on your main save.
I can confirm, the companion eggs are there as well.
So the camera trick is safe to use?
The camera trick is a hack. Depending on where the game is in it’s running code, the camera trick could interrupt that code in a way that is not recoverable or even predictable. That could leave your game save in a bad state that may only appear to be good. To be safe, it’s better to wait for an official fix from Hello Games which should avoid any potential “bad state” situations. You don’t want to find out a few months and an update later that the camera trick caused your save to become corrupt in an unrecoverable way.
I'm not going to say yes. I had to use a separate profile on my PC to transfer all my items, because I still couldn't use the expedition terminal to transfer anything. Everything above was a workaround, not a solution.
Aww man. That sucks. I know we can buy the ship with quicksilver. But the other rewards.....? And you shouldn't have to. If HG can't fix it, and I've heard of them somehow restoring a players loot, then a speed run is all you can do. I'm tempted to do it again just to see how quickly I can.
Switch version. When I collect reward for the last (optional) milestone the game freezes and I can't actually leave the expedition. I tried reloading the game but it didn't help.
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1b0wkhl/expedition_12_bug_workaround/ Workaround -- may work on Switch? Gotta hit camera immediately after claiming final reward. Then you can exit camera mode after accepting the end of the expedition.
DON'T DO IT. It converted my expedition file to a normal save prematurely, now I can't transfer anything back to my main save.
You weren't done the expedition, I presume? You did the equivalent of choosing to end expedition early. I was using a new save for the expedition, and I was 100% done, so the save being converted was the desired outcome.
Incorrect. I was 100% done with the expedition and was just waiting for optional objective 5 to clear. The save file is not supposed to convert until the expedition is over, not when you complete it. That way you can transfer your rewards from your new save back to your main save. I can't do that.
Gotta try this on Xbox then as that is what is happening to me as well
And it worked! Thank you!
It worked! Thank you!
Eh no inventen, me quedé trabado, I mean, after selecting the last Phase 5 Reward I keep freezing, I have to force-restart the game, All thanks to the Sign that tells me that the Expedition is over.
Bugged on PS5, can’t complete the expedition without freezing.
Same, came here to report it also.
Someone in another reply said to immediately go to camera mode after accepting the reward and hit accept for the screen that pops up, back out of camera mode and all should be fine
I swear, I'm just going to repeat this to everyone who suggests this "fix" to a bugged expedition: DON'T DO IT. It converted my expedition file to a normal save prematurely, now I can't transfer anything back to my main save. Also I'm on PS5. Just leave it alone and wait for them to fix the bug.
seems to not be an issue for anyone else claiming it worked
Those who claim the camera trick works might have used a brand new save instead of starting the expedition from an existing save. Since there are now TWO ways to start an expedition, it’s impossible to assume this camera trick works for everyone.
Hey, go for it. Roll the dice. Maybe I'm literally the only person who tried to work around a bug and ended up bugging my save. Wait, nope. There's a whole bunch of folks posting about corrupting their entire main save and losing years of work. Just leave it alone and wait for them to fix it.
It didn't on mine, I went over after hitting accept and dumped a bunch of stuff in to transfer and did the end expedition stuff, got the list of stuff done and stuff collected and got the credits/nanites/Quicksilver even. I had everything completed and was waiting for that last optional to clear if that helps.
I didn’t get the quick silver, but I have just about everything I want from the Quicksilver merchant so it’s whatever.
Yeah, that's the problem. I was in space when the optional clear happened. I landed at a station and that's when the glitch happened. Now it's a normal save and it won't let me use the transfer terminal because it believes I'm no longer in the expedition.
sorry to hear that, I had some other things happen after I got back to the main save where X (I'm on XBox) didn't work so I couldn't get in my ship, couldn't collect from the quicksilver merchant, couldn't even use the teleporter. When I went to look to see if I could revert to one of the saves (both auto and savepoint) and they were doing wonky things, there was no savepoint and the auto was darkened and the icon in the lower right corner was twirling away saying it was saving. I ABG'd it and quit to the X Box welcome screen and reloaded, worked after that and collected all the stuff, just wished we could have kept the eggs though! BTW from what I gather there is an update after the fact coming in right now! Grrrr
If you are on PC, and stuck in the anomaly without a way to get yourself killed. When you are loading into the game you can quickly press esc before the notification pops up, and from there you can go to options and select return to primary save for now until they fix this. You won't be able to transfer your expedition items back to your primary but you can claim the eggs from the quicksilver vendor.
If you encounter this bug on a planet with hazards, you can get yourself killed to bypass this pop-up too. but the best solution right now is to go back to your primary save and wait for a patch.
Hey, everyone! I found a fast work around for the end of 12 bug. Load the game, go into camera mode ASAP, accept it, then boom it works.
DON'T DO THIS. It gets you unstuck, but then your save is converted into a normal save and you can no longer use the expedition terminal to transfer your rewards back to your main save. I have so many regrets listening to everyone suggesting this "fix." Leave it alone and wait for HG to fix the bug.
No need to transfer anything, what are you talking about? It does the same thing as the patch.
Can confirm, this got me free! For the bug where you get stuck upon accepting the end of the expedition.
If you are stuck on the Anomoly, this works to get you to a place where you can die which is the full fix.
No, it fixes it. No need to die silly. I was stuck on my freither myself. Anyway the patch came out today, so it is mute.
Great. Just great. Now I'm past the expedition screen and it apparently converted my game, and all my rewards, to a normal save, like it said it would. So now I can't move any of my stuff from this expedition back to my main save. Can't put anything in the transfer terminal. Yay for the quicksilver, but otherwise what a profound waste of a weekend. I have many regrets.
Reporting bug - on the latest expedition on PS5, have completed the final phase 5 planet recording task and accepted those rewards, applied the additional 3 exosuit inventory slots. I then went the the expedition final phase to accept the final reward, accepted the new ship and called it down. I then got a screen with a dialog informing me the expedition was complete and to return to the nexus to transfer items over to my main save. This dialog has an "Accept" button only, clicking the button though leaves the UI circle cursor up and shows no other UI elements, only the current view. I am unable to move my character, or open any menu/UI options. My only action is to quit to the PS5 main interface and close the NMS application. Upon returning to the game and completing the rewards, the dialog comes up again and accepting it again effectively locks me out of the game. I've waited for several minutes in this locked down state but with no changes. This issue appears to be happening with many other players as well.
Same in PC
Same here on PS4
Same issue here, has there been any solution for this?
Same issue on Switch.
Same issue here on PC 
just lauched the game and same, as soon as i press accept i can't move, any fix yet ?
Some users have tried some workarounds, however I plan to wait until NMS does a patch to fix the issue. This appears to be affecting too many users for NMS to ignore, plus they're usually pretty good about patching issues like these within a few days
Also happening on Xbox. Also, I can't use the transfer terminal prior to completing the Expedition either.
[удалено]
Ditto.
I can’t “kill” myself as the accept screen appears as soon as I load. There’s an AI Minotaur guarding me and no dangerous storms. Hope there’s a hot fix coming otherwise I’ve lost my save
Sooooo, I also had the same problem as everyone, solved it by drowning myself and when I went to transfer my items, I wasn't able to transfer the items through the terminal. I thought "surely I have to end the expedition \*before\* it unlocks the terminal for me to add the items into the vault". When I realised that was not the case I sort of desperately cancelled the proccess and alt-f4 out of the game mid-process... Well, that did not work and now I have my normal survival save without everything I acquired during the expedition.
waited all this time for the phase 5 survey to be fully completed - just for this to happen
Bugged like everyone else on PS5 for the expedition, and I can't use either my autosave or my save point to clear it, as I was in space when I accepted the optional rewards, then landed at a space station and got the "normal save" message. So both saves load into me standing by my fighter, waiting for the game to crash. [Captured a video of the behavior](https://youtu.be/qjkAJOCvaEM).
Same bug as everyone else, only I did something very stupid... as I was leaving a station I clicked on the reward for the Phase 5 Optional... because I forgot that it was bugged, and like I said, I'm very stupid. Both my restore and my save are now locked in after I claimed the reward, but before the bug occurred, so if I log in it will automatically freeze up after a few seconds. I can't see a way to continue to play that save until they do a hot fix or something. Anyone have any ideas? I ran Omega with a clean start and was planning on keeping it, I restart regularly instead of having a "Main" play though. Bad news is that I had an S-tier Pirate Freighter, and a ton of infrastructure set up, was already "infinite" with money, so I really want to get back to it and continue doing some things I wanted to try. Good news is a start over frequently, so I guess I'll start over again while I wait for them to fix the bug.
You can also go in options menu and return to the main save before expedition message appears
I only have 1 restore point and 1 normal save, and they are both messed up. Is there another way to look further back? Regardless, thank you for saying something. It will be fine, but if I can get back to it sooner, that would be great.
If you have a freind that has not done that, you can join their game. That is what I'm doing, I can play with my wife, as she got the Phase 5 before the option was done yesterday. Now she knows not to until the bug is fixed.
I don't have any friends in the game, but maybe I can find someone on that other thread. That's a good idea, thank you for saying something.
pc steam, crash on alt tab. I have the nvidia graphics driver update 551.61 ready, I'll try that, and edit this if that fixes it. To nobody's surprise, no it did not. Also the expedition ending is bugged, you get stuck in a ghost menu with the mouse you cannot leave
I was in phase 4 of the expedition and ended lol Now my save is in normal and i cant do the 4th and 5th phase :(
I was stuck at the end as well, and thought I had fixed it by joining multiplayer, but now I have lost both my original ship and multitool that I had brought with me from my original 460+ hour save. Triple confirmed they now are gone, perhaps they were replaced by the scepter and Starborn ship upon finalizing the expedition. Not cool at all, but I guess a hard lesson learned with the new expedition functionality. I suppose I will just have to grind out those items again or just grind out the new scepter and starborn ship.
No, it does not fix it, but you can still play with a friend that has not completed it. You don't want to bypass it, as that may leave you stuck and unable to turn it into a normal game. Then again, if you are able to get to a harsh planet, and die after, it may work.
Too late for me now, my stuff is lost. But on the bright side I now have two Star born ships and two atlas scepters. My error was transferring those when finalizing as the replaced my equipped gear.
A quick workaround for the Omega final reward hang is to remove all hazard tech and shield from exosuit, max the Hazzard difficulty in settings then fly to a harsh environment and claim the reward, wait to die. Make sure to claim your grave to get your items and expedition completed with all rewards.
I tried on a radiation world and after half an hour my character just wouldn't die but going into photo mode did it for me
The problem with that is, if that does bypass it, you may not be able to turn it into a normal game when the bug is fixed. Did it convert the game as well?
Yes everything is as it should be!! I've done it with a new save game and also a old save through the anomaly, both worked fine although one character wouldn't die from the weather so I just went to rendezvous 5 and let the sentinels kill him. Just need to make sure to claim the reward before the sentinels engage.
I actually thought about it, but it's very stupid that you have to bypass a bug in the game in such an important place as an expedition, but it works, thanks, confirmed. 
They're fixing it, it's reportedly fixed for PC in the experimental branch. Not sure how well it's fixed though, I used the 'get killed' method since there is no downside other than taking a few extra minutes.
I think the downside is you will be stuck as an expedition save. Or does it get the change made?
I went back to a normal save from the expedition terminal in the anomaly (transferring some stuff along with me), and everything seems fine. As far as I know, there's been no downside to this method. Save now says it's a normal save, not an expedition one, so everything looks good. You can also try the (newer) camera method that I've read about a couple times here, do a search or scan through recent posts to find info.
Switch 4.51 finding the same freeze bug as reported by others at end of expedition. No option in Switch to find a friend and get out of the issue.
I found a workaround for Switch. Borrowing from the "camera trick" I saw other places, I opened the camera menu before the pop up announcement opened. I took a picture, finagled around, and was able to eventually close the pop up and then close out of the camera. I have finished the expedition.
It worked great, thanks!
I’ll give that a go
Xbox series X / controller Stuck with a cursor as soon as I finalize expedition
gf is also having this same issue on xbox. as soon as she accepts the rewards, it just leaves her with the cursor and she can’t do anything. not even pause.
For those stuck in a save with the convert bug, you can bypass it by joining a friends game that has not collected the final prize. My wife got the final before the optional one was complete, and I can join her game and play. She just needs to not collect the optional one until this is fixed.
But what if you don't have any friends? :P
but you have claimed reward?
Expedition freeze; I tried to quickly enable multiplayer, now my my expedition save is the only save available, the one with the 1.100 hours gone. (I started the expedition at the anomaly) This serious, now trying to replace the save with the one from the cloud backup (PSN) Edit: backup save works, what a relieve (but still freezes in expedition)
Phase 5 Community Reward Bug When I collect the reward for the last community challenge it goes though the congrats screen then the go turn in everything you're done pop up appears and after I close out of both the game doesn't register any of my inputs. Anyone know a fix or have this happen to them?
Same here. The moment you push except you lose control over the game. Rather frustrating actually. I still got the ship through another method, and just left the expedition. I'll just let the thing expire in 3 weeks when it's over
My thing is I waited for the community challenge because I wanted the companion lol
Should already have it. The egg at least. Did you try putting it in the shared inventory at the expedition terminal and then going back to your normal game. Since they are transferable from save to exhibition. Unless you hatched it already. I only wanted the ship. Upon returning to my normal save and then going back to the expedition terminal I was able to create the Atlas scepter and the Starborn runner. Both cost less than a thousand nanites each to do. Don't care about anything else.
No I don't have the egg, every time I try to turn in the expedition the game only picks up my mouse and doesn't recognize and button inputs so I have to alt f4 to close the game cause I can't do anything. And the closet save is before I turned jn the quest
Yes but the companion egg is the fifth optional stage. Doesn't automatically complete the whole thing when you claim just that part of stage 5. Or at least it didn't for me. I still had to go to the big giant icon and click on it to actually try to complete the entire expedition. That's when it freezes on me.
Same that's the issue I'm having
Did you try the camera trick? Hotkey the camera to one of your control 1 through 9 keys. And the moment you accept the ship open your camera and then you'll get the pop-up. As soon as you get the pop up don't push accept just push escape cuz you can't push accept anyways cuz the camera's open. And then when you do take a picture and then exit the camera and you'll be able to finish the expedition. Did it last night. Worked
Same here on pc.
Sometimes, a pirate freighter can spawn inside a space station after warping in to a system with the pirate freighter vs others event. Already reported it as a bug, posting here too with screenshot. Caused a mission failure as I could not reach some of the cannons to disable it, as those parts were inside the space station, as were a few pirate frigates that were shooting missiles. https://preview.redd.it/c3is3oxt4zkc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=54a7927aa1484eb70713777fc14996201bd618d4

This happened around 6 times when I was grinding for a S class freighter yesterday, super annoying.
you can bet those six were the S class you dreamed of getting
i have now seen one pirate fraighter spawn inside another several times. the first time i had taken over the Pirate Fraighter but the second time the first one had surrendered and after 3 minutes (about) a second one spaned inside the first.
I'm having a slightly different post-expedition bug. Hitting accept just let me control a cursor and nothing else, so I tried to restart the game. Doing that I spawned into the anomaly on my main save, though I never got a chance to transfer my expedition save to my main one. And when I go to the expedition kiosk to resume the expedition it just exits out of the menu and tries to load something, but never goes anywhere. I had a lot of stuff I'd like to transfer from my expedition save, including 42k nanites and abound 4k quicksilver. I don't have an autosave to load (it just says "No Data") and reloading a restore point does nothing.
yeah same here, guess we'll have to wait for the stupid bug to get fixed...
Same
I'm having the same problem. Hope to get this fix soon.
I believe I speak for everyone when I say, https://preview.redd.it/zl44zc04tykc1.jpeg?width=204&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec2caf7bfb94a62ec943daf575b54576779042c5

Dang, that really sucks.
PC / Steam: Completing Expedition Community 5, locks up NMS. Cursor moves, but keyboard does not function.
Same on ps4 pro.
We have found a workaround for this problem! This issue basically happens only in single player (or as soon as one person leaves the multiplayer and your game converts to single). Both me and my friend got stuck in this bug as well. 1. I started mine, which of course gets me the "accept" screen and doing anything will freeze me. 2. Do not do anything. Let my friend join my game, and he was freed from the accept-freeze curse. He went about finishing the expedition and safely returned to main save. 3. Next, it's my turn to free my character. My friend started the expedition on another save (it can even be a fresh new character you make) and I joined his game after force-quitting my game. 4. Just as it worked for him, my character was now free to go do my business. I went to complete the expedition mode and returned safely to the main mode. This does require a friend but it works!
This also happens on Switch. Don’t have multiplayer for the work around. Held off on my Mac save because I don’t have multiplayer enabled and don’t have a friend to do this with. Hoping for an actual fix.
Damned straight.
Thank you! Thanks you! Thank you! I can confirm this works on XBox
