Well, that's disappointing

[Steve B]

The update didn't affect any of my bases, but it did change the planets they're on.

So my sunny Earthlike paradise with green grass and blue skies is now a muddy brown mess.
My red island on dark red seas is a green island on blue/grey seas.
My base with a stunning view of giant white planetary rings now has those rings hidden by clouds.
Etc

And on warping back to my Freighter I discover that the teleport room is completely cut off from the rest of the ship, because corridors no longer exist. Going back to the bridge, I can't even see how to build new corridors to reach the existing rooms.

Not impressed.

I've experienced similar issues. My seaside resort now has yellow sky instead of blue and the beach and water look awful.

time to start a new game.

I was wondering if it would be better... Whats the down side vs upside.

Noooooo Paradiso Mediterriso went from beautiful balmy blue waters and golden glowing grasses and radiant shrooms to... brown. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Thanks for the warning, fellas. Got my game update-locked like Skyrim until this gets resolved. IF this gets resolved. If not, well... Looks like I either have a lot of work to do or have some new drive space.

Its a mixed bag, and I think mods might have something to do with it.

I have a lightly modded game from the very minute NMS first dropped, with bases built on planets back then, and none of them have been touched, or altered, or changed, and none of the planets have remotely changed in 9 years or so. 15 different bases.

So whatever is happening to these guys I suspect there's a mod going on. My best guess perhaps a planet adjustment mod, so when they download a new update, and that mod gets disabled, suddenly the planet gets reverted to what it was previously.

Planet adjustment mods, are basically just an overlay. THey don't actually change what the planet actually looks like on the NMS servers, just what you personally see. So once that mod is disabled, it reverts back to what the NMS servers are saying that planet looks like.

Every single update that touches, or alters planets, I see the same posts, yet none of mine ever get changed, or altered, and I have 40 different bases across 3 saves 1 of those saves being 9 years old, with 8-9 year old bases.

My home on a green grassy hill over looking a blue lake is now over looking a yellow lake. Eww!

Not that i don't respect your issue with "changes" to unique environments you picked out to build bases on but, COME-ON-MAN !... are you serious... "Not impressed"?

https://www.nomanssky.com/worlds-part-i-update/

THis commentary of yours is not unique, as with past Major "Universe" Updates that turned out to be a BIG HIT with everyone else... even though their bases/builds might have been buried under dirt or a mountain, drowned, no more exceptionally unique vista-view, not same biome, etc., they eventually found even better places to build stuff and had the exact same and more fun doing so.

I have started many a New Game since 2016 for certain types of Major Updates and Expeditions ... i mean it's like this... after earning 4 billion units, 100,000+ nanites, finding the best freighter, the best min-maxed_spaceship, best min-maxed_Tech for Multitool, Exosuit, etc., etc.... sometimes, it's just more fun starting over in a new Universe :)

The universe was reset. Many if not all planets were affected. It's not going to be "resolved." It's the new normal. As I understand it, it happened once before in the game's development, and it very well might happen again, somewhere down the line.

So, you adapt or you find a new, pretty planet, basically. This is one reason why I don't build bases and either just be a true nomad with just me and my ship or just have a freighter base. But for planet-side base-builders, it'd be nice if we could save blueprints in this game, to make "moving" bases from one planet to another easy.

My Paradise Planet with Sky Island no longer has sky islands. That was a let down.

He's right, It's actually happened several times since 2016 ... it's the proc-gen technology that makes it EXTREMELY difficult to modify 18-quintillion planets in 256 galaxies without spilling a little milk... heck i'm surprised they did what they did with Worlds without wiping-out everything ever built!... AMAZING!

[DeadlyKitten]

I always star fresh since i never actually settled on any planet.
But all the planets i now find are extremely ugly...
Clumped up mud balls that make no sense.
Like its much worse than before...

Not impressed.

This is why we can't have new things.

[Planetpink]

almost all my green fauna + blue sky + blue/green water bases are not on dreadful yellow or red colored planets and 90% of them have the same trees as well.

[Matomdy]

same for me i build a base on a nice spot, now it's full of earth. It wasn't at first. i spend 100h on it, someone have a solution ? I don't want to dig up a whole mountain....
