Game NOT Updating
Seems my game is stuck on build 3387908. I don't have access to any of the new features from november 2017 onward. I reinstalled the game twice and still nothing. Anyone have any suggestions?

Ok, so you ARE in 1.77. Steam has no other updates available. Now, what are these 'new features' you can't access?

Don't have access to the tier 1 through 3 items from the quicksilver vendor

What is the icon color on the lower left in the Discovery Page? It should be green for full online access. If you are not online you can't have access to these CE missions. Check your log also (P).

If you run in Windows 7, here is the fix for it (check anyway):

Try uninstalling the game, then do an install.

There is currently a new update for the Steam interface. Be sure to run and finish this before trying to update the game.
After the interface is updated, you should be able to go in your game Library, right-click on your NMS game > Properties > Update.

Now, make sure all betas for the game are disabled.
Chose 'only update game when I launch it'.
Launch NMS. It should update now. If not go in the File tab and make a file integrity check and repeat.

Steam client is fully updated. Under NMS/Properties/Update all that can be selected is to change auto updates, background downloads, or cloud settings.

I opted out of all betas, set updates to launch game only, and verified files. Still nothing, stuck on v1.76?

That should not happen...And the verified files showed no errors?
What is the date of your 'nms.exe' ? For v.1.77 it should read close to 14.12.2018.

It said "All files successfully validated." The NMS.exe date modified and created is 1/9/19. I seriously don't know what is going on with this thing.

Ok, here is a method to check if your version is 1.77 instead of 1.76.

Land on one of your frigates; go on the ladder and stop before reaching summit; fire-up your visor with F. If the visor doesn't appear, then you are in version 1.77 (has been disabled in the last patch on ladders).

Your game was working ok up until today's update?

Visor doesn't work on ladders in frigates. Guess I am running the new update. Problem is then I'm stuck on the last community research quest (collect flora). Can't get the new quest and the quicksilver vendor doesnt have any of the new items.

Alternatively to the test above, in version 1.77 (latest) you should *not* be able to mine some advanced flora on planets with the standard mining laser anymore but only with the "Advanced Mining Laser". Try it out and eventuall remove the advanced laser from your multitool. (Save the game before).

This should clarify things, because I suspect you are at 1.77 anyway.

Game was working fine in December 2018. Haven't had a chance to try it until today. Thought it wasn't updating correctly turns out it may be an ingame quest issue.
