Still this buggy - really??

[Nihimon]

I update and log back in after a few years of not playing. Start a brand new game. Can't get any Sodium from the Sodium plant, so I freeze to death. I shoot the plant, but no Sodium.

Lame

Interact with the yellow sodium plant (pickup).

Shoot the yellow sodium crystals.

For PC, did you press the "e" key and hold it down?

It's always buggy for a few weeks after a MAJOR game update. And this one was particularly MAJOR.

I take a break for a year or more, since four or five years ago and nms is the worst buggy game I have ever played. I still enjoy it and stay for a while to play thru new stuff then drop it once the bugs/glitches get old. I said in another post Light No Fire is going to be just as bad as nms, massive bug fest.

The Devs get a major F for adding content and never fixing all the same old day one bugs, blows my mind why.

This is why you shouldn't listen to people at all. Even me.

This. This guy just was like YEAH I VALIDATE THIS but it's like the user...shot the plant...a plant you collect....but then complained about said game being buggy.

So two in one proving humanity was a mistake.


Always hit e.

u know it was me

Just like 99% of bug complaints - players are the bugs. So many bugs. LOL
Damn buggy game.

[Fenix]

yeah that isn't a bug you suppose to pick it up. not shoot it.... That's on you for not reading the screen.

[ItaAndy]

Do you even know how to play the game? Lmao

Well, to be fair, you shoot nearly everything else to collect it, without running right up to it, you'd probably never know and just assume it's a bug.

Fair point

I came off a year-long hiatus somewhere in January, and was appreciating how some old bugs were finally fixed. Albeit some of the newer content wasn't working right, but I didn't see any newer bugs for the older content since I last play; looked like HG was finally putting in some work on this war of attrition with their own mishaps. Then Worlds 2 landed, and pretty much all of it fell back to square 1. Granted I don't think any old bugs were resurrected, but rather a lot of the older content got broken in new ways.

Honestly, I'm a brand new player, I only have a couple tens of hours.. Being brand new, even I noticed that you don't shoot the plants after like the second time trying to shoot them, the tooltip is pretty plain and obvious on the screen that you interact with them... Why is reading so hard for people, but they will go out of their way to come to the community hub to write about their experience, and experience which proves they're incompetent? lol bro. you can't MINE a flower. yes, some larger plants, you can, cause they're HUGE. little tiny yellow flower on the ground that always tells you to interact with it? INTERACT WITH IT. lol

Also worth mentioning that I have few exceptions to not shooting harvestable plants. Most notably the cave hazards, when that bug hits where they persist after being harvested, still emitting gassy acid or whatever, and the harvest option is no longer available. Then I burn it away with my laser.

Edit: 2nd most notable would be kelp sacs.
