Any way to get easy blank microchips?

[Sleepy Wuff]

I loaded an old save to keep playing recently that is a few updates old and I've pretty much explored everywhere that I know of. Problem is there's a new area behind rocks that need explosives, and they are locked behind the microchips, the ones that are probably fully looted by now. Is there any other way to get explosives or more microchips?

No, but I've already seen someone in your situation and he hadn't searched everything (especially the inside of the volcano wreckage). That must be your case, I think. Have you searched everything carefully?

Not easy, easy. But I ran a portal wreck yesterday, rarity 4, difficulty 3, it had 6 blank microchips I think. It was from Humble, not Prime if that makes a difference.

certain attention in the portal contains specific plans like that of the white cube decoration

Have gotten a couple blank chips from the distant wrecks on Prime, but not many.

I've searched every wreck I can find. I did find a few in the volcano wreck, but that unlocked vehicle stuff. I might be screwed

You must lack it, I think. You have to look really everywhere, it can be in small blue boxes. Unless you found little empty blue boxes, I don't see any reason why it bugged

back in the day there was a magical box that had all the microchips you could ever need... it was glorious and only those brave enough to suffer through the deadlands could reach it. I don't know if it's been taken out of the game, I've been away for a looong time.

The recipe is pulled from a Blueprint Microchip, the very thing that OP is doubting the ability to find more of on their current save.

I had a similar issue when I hadnt been on the Prime account for a while. After completing Humble to the final terra forming stage, I logged onto Prime the other day only to find one of my bases entirely inaccessible due do the upgrade and major landscape changes around the NW and Beach region where i had a big base. I had all my "goodies" on the top floor which included a storage container loaded with blueprints. I needed them to get the explosive recipe but couldnt access my base. I have been luckier though since I hadnt played for a while, there were new blue chests in places that I found while out desperately searching like you have. I managed to find enough and got the recipe so I can continue.
I was a little freaked as I unlocked the blueprints as it was allocating that stupid rover upgrades first when I needed the recipe priority not the stupid vehicle, but luckily I had enough and got it. Its a shame about my lost base. I hope there are not going to be any further landscape changes like that where people are losing their bases in this way. Luckily I was prepared since we had been warned there would be changes and I had 3 main bases in case this happened but from now on I wont have blueprints in just one of them. I will spread them around the bases as backups! I have already started building another one to replace the one I lost. Very odd though since even though I cant get into the main part of it, the drones are still delivering from the production line i had setup there, So its a good thing the drones can go through the rocks

Try standing in front of the debre and tap F4 a few times it should allow you to pass through. Easy way back is repeat that or let yourself run out of air or water returns you to base.
If your game is behind the latest major up to 1. Dont know if the F4 is available
There was several explosives updates after 1 release
