Can someone clarify for me whether:

1 -- are these Expeditions other-player dependant, eg, can't really finish them totally alone?
2 -- the rewards are cosmetic/deco/skins etc + pets

1. No guarantee, in the past, some original expeditions are Community Progress-based, timegated and softlocked in Offline mode. But Remixed version are not. We cannot guarantee that upcoming remixes stay the same. But just let's hope.
2. Mostly, but some special expeditions give starships, eggs, and frigates.

The expeditions can be completed solo. Some phases in past expeditions may be completed once a certain quest threshold has been reached by the community, before the expedition deadline. Players in the same expedition instance can cooperate and help one another to complete them faster, but there has never been, (yet) an expedition requiring cooperative play.

Expedition rewards can be all sorts of practical, useful and fun items for characters and ships.
All of the rewards are often beautifully designed and thoughtfully animated and in this current release some of the very early rewards, from previous expeditions, like coveted Golden Vector are being re-released. : D

You can now start an Expedition game.
Good luck!

^ Thanks for replies re: online, but let me clarify a little bit - does one have to have MP turned on for expeditions.

I think the only stuff I'd be interested in rewards wise is the egg/pets. Not into base deco, don't care what my MT looks like, frigates etc.

No, you can do them with MP disabled. You can even do it completely offline unless something's changed.

Do note that aside from eggs/pets, the Utopia Expedition (this week only) has the Utopia Speeder (a unique starship) as the completion reward.

If you can stay focused on completing the milsetones rather than getting bogged down in other content, it only takes a few hours to complete.

That being said, I really dig the "can only craft in a base, and oxygen/sodium don't refill life support/hazard protection" mechanic in the Utopia expedition. I wonder if there's a mod to enable those restrictions permanently?

Wich expedition gives Golden Vector starship as reward?
