Finished the tutorial, where do I go from here?
Repaired the broken b class ship but now I'm kinda broke. I saw that larval cores were worth a small fortune but I wanted to upgrade my stuff before doing that.

How do I get a better environment suit so I Last longer, shops don't have it.

Explore...

The game rewards you for exploring. While exploring you can pick up any needed resources, salvage tech modules, nanites, and get many upgrades free just by interacting with broken machinery.

Stop anywhere there is free parking and talk to the locals, dig up or loot items, etc...

Just running across a couple crashed ships can put a lot of stuff in your inventory when you scrap them out.

Also, continuing to warp will led to a free freighter.

You only get one suit. Other than some cosmetic replacement wear, there are no other suits available. You have to buy/obtain upgrades to improve your environmental hazards status. Likely, you will need a lot more suit slots to make that happen.

Drop pods are the most interesting and cheapest way to obtain slots. You can also buy one from each new station and one in the anomaly in each new system.

Easiest way to make a bit of money to buy a decent ship and plenty of suit inventory upgrades is to dig a load of salvaged data. You can see it through your visor - roughly one lot every 300U, so you make sure that your ship has launch fuel, then go on a walkabout roughly in one direction. keep looking through your visor and dig up any that you find with the terrain manipulator. If you don't have the TM yet, you have to carry on with the main quest a little bit. You get 2 to 4 salvage data each dig, and each one is worth 52k. You can get a several mil in an hour.

  1. Shoot asteroids and sell the silver, gold, and platinum.
  2. Find a planet that has salt (usually radio active planets) mine the deposits (terrain manipulator) and the mineral formations (mining laser) and sell the salt.
  3. Find a planet that has ancient bones (usually desert planets so its not harsh on your hazard protection). Use the scanner to find some, dig them up and sell them.
  4. Install an economy scanner on your ship and use it to find 3 star economies and move trade goods for quick cash.
  5. Buy a better multitool and install "S" class scanner modules. Cash will roll in just from scanning things.
  6. Find a planet that has storm crystals, buy a chargeable hazard protection module for that biome type, some ion batteries to power it, and install it and hunt and sell storm crystals.
  7. Find a planet that has salvageable scrap. Dig some up and sell them..
  8. Get a freighter and start sending out frigate missions. You get cash, materials, and goods from most mission types when you debrief them at the end. Sell the stuff that you won't need for crafting or other uses or that are "trade good" class items.

The end goal being to set up an automated mining facility for a high value resource (like activated indium). That will work even when you aren't playing that you can scoop up and sell when you are playing.

Each space station that you visit will sell you one and only one exo suit expansion slot. You can also summon the anomaly and buy a 2nd slot in that system from there. (Also a one time deal for that system). There is a way that you can cheese the system to buy 2 more slots in that same system but I prefer warping and buying just the one suit expansion from each space station since that gives me more systems to explore and more trade goods to move in subsequent play session. You can also buy drop pod coordinate data and use your signal booster to find and repair drop pods when buying slots gets expensive.

if you just repaired ship, you finished tutorial(main mission) for 5%. just keep doing things game is asking - buiding base, following atlas path, contacting artemis. you will open anomaly, recipes, vehicles, underwater, dailies, black hole traveling and so on... you not even started yet.
if you have no idea where to "buy suit", you not "finished tutorial".

Just follow Artemis quest line (awakening) and the game will unlock new things to do with new npcs and quests if you not sure how to proceed.

Go into the LOGS menu and keep it selected.

I Was talking about the ship you go to before going to the anomaly.

I wanted to know where to buy hazardous upgrades so I can loot longer without having to look for materials to recharge my shields, but I found out that caves have cobalt which can make tons of ion batteries for extremely cheap. not as high as priority as before.

thank you for this info. I found a drop prod earlier but didn't have the blueprint anti-matter to get the upgrade during the tutorial. I will def. use that inventory expansion trick tho.

I am going to go salvage scrap since everyone is recommending it. I was planning on just farming larval cores till I get 5 mil and explore but this seems like a better alternative

Thanks for a 6 year old review on a game that has recieved several expansions since then.

I knew no mans sky was a disappointment years ago, I tried it out because I heard the devs were actually still working on it instead of abandoning it. even now. vid for reference.
