The Galactic Hub Project

Largest & Oldest Active Civilization

475+ Documented Bases, 11,000+ Discord Members

The Galactic Hub Project (r/NMSGalacticHub), founded October 2016, is Euclid's multiplayer hotspot. With a greater concentration of players than anywhere else in No Man's Sky, there's no better location to experience Civilized Space gameplay!

A few of our features include:

  • Chapters - The Galactic Hub has a variety of sub-organizations called Chapters, like the GH Exobiology Corps (focused on fauna), the GH Defense Force (focused on defense & combating griefers), the GH Star League (focused on hosting multiplayer "simulation sports" competitions), & more!

  • Colonies - In the Hub, colonies are communities of multiple players collaborating in some way. This always includes building bases, which are often built under the same theme. Colonies may be as big as a whole system, or as small as a single trade post. The most active colonies are managed by Governors. Governors are interlopers who volunteer to run a colony. A governor's main focus is keeping their colony active - this often involves writing missions or hosting events for their colonists. Some colonies even have Mayors, which manage even smaller communities known as Territories within a Colony. Anyone may set up their own colony in Hub space and act as a Governor!

  • Multiplayer Events - From laid-back Social Nights to the NMS take on eSports Star League, the Galactic Hub has multiplayer social events nearly every week - sometimes multiple each week. Come meet your neighbors!

  • Economy - The GH has its own native currency, HubCoin. It is rewarded exclusively for activity representing the Galactic Hub on various platforms (Reddit, Discord, Wiki, Twitter). HubCoin is never available for sale for dollars, pounds, etc - "real world money" is never required or involved. HubCoin is used to facilitate a metagame economy. For example, to earn coin, players can open their own Businesses with in-game locations in Hub space. To spend coin, players might browse our Discord server's Marketplace and buy goods like custom ships, custom companions, services-of-convenience (ie construction materials), or even 100%-free real-world Hub merch. (Real-world merch availability may vary.)

  • Canonization - Hello Games was kind enough to canonize the Galactic Hub. In other words, we're official in-game content! The "Pilgrim" title can only be unlocked by visiting our old capital planet, New Lennon. Our emblem can be purchased at the QuickSilver store as a base decal or player banner. We're also referenced in the Mission Board and the dialogue of a Traveller, as well as being referenced in the Waking Titan ARG!

That's just a quick look at some of our features. We also have interactions with other civilizations, we're a founding member of the United Federation of Travelers, and much more - but above all else, what really defines the Galactic Hub is our thriving and friendly community. Join us and find your new home in the stars!

No Man's Sky was released 7 years ago yesterday (August 9th) on PS4 in North America, today (August 10th) on PS4 in Europe, and August 12th on Steam.

How long have you been playing and how many hours have you played?

I started around Beyond (2.0) and have almost 3800 hours played.

I play Co-op on nexus missions. The aim on these missions is to use the sentinel pillar which is locked until you clear six waves of sentinels. But every time we clear the sixth wave, it always restarts wave 1 again.

This has happened multiple times on different days. This makes me wonder if it ever works?! Or is it just bugged for multiplayer?

We are on PS5 of that makes a difference. Anyone else facing this? Or am I missing something?

HUBTalks Guest Speaker Sessions are a repeating event in Galactic Hub space. Every month, a speaking session will be opened at the Galactic Hub Capitol Building in the Council Chambers room. Anyone may speak on any topic related to No Man's Sky, science, scifi, art, or technology - including comedy themed around those topics.

In this speech, Professor Malocura prepares us for a journey through a new, possible future. One hinted at by new updates, such as the lore of Sentinel pillars - a future where the Void Mother / Abyss gains further control over the Simulation. In this engaging speech, the professor presents evidence for his claims, suggests possible explanations for incomplete pieces of the puzzle, and answers questions from audience members.

In this speech, Xander - reading a speech written by Favorite - covers the lore surrounding the destruction of Korvax Prime and the aftermath. Then, the speech segues into the Korvax Monoliths and Ruins, and their role in preserving Korvax knowledge past the destruction of Korvax Prime.

We were hosting an event in the Galactic Hub, on a planet which is designated to have no laws. So a guy showed up and was disrupting the event we were hosting there. He learned that while it may be lawless, it isn't defenseless, as we shot him out of the sky many times (he kept returning).

Sometimes, when entering the Space Anomaly, my ship will slow down and come to a complete stop just before it enters. It also seems that reloading doesn't help. Is this a known bug? Is there a solution?

Edit: this is particularly annoying after completing a Nexus mission. A reload isn't an option and not getting into the Anomaly means I can't get the mission reward.

Should I be using a controller, a keyboard, or something else? I heard that it was developed for PC, has that remained the better UI?

Don't mind me, I'm mostly just testing out Lemmy :). Hope you enjoy my test pic!

Hi everyone. New to the fediverse and Lemmy, like many others have said I'm more determined to get involved and to talk and contribute here. I don't know why exactly. It just feels more authentic.

I've played the game since launch for several years. Last three years I've had a bit of a break. I've come back to so much content that I'm quite overwhelmed!

So my question is this. What are you all working towards in game now? What are your goals? What are you enjoying doing in game?

I've decided to try and get my fleet organised as I've never really even looked into that part of the game. Seems like a nice way to make some money and the new freighter redesign looks great! I don't really understand the fleet mechanics at all.

I'm also trying to use the glyph exchange to find a nice exotic ship but I've just spent half an hour sat in a space port so far without the desired ship showing up.

Looking forward to hearing what everyone is up to in game!

This is a panorama, stitched together from 20 separate screenshots at the Anomaly. You might have to click zoom in a couple of times in your browser/app to get the full-size image.

Total size is roughly 6120x1060 pixels so plenty of resolution to work with if it needs to be cropped.

Greetings travelers!

As great as the current banner is - it's a bunch of Galactic Hub citizens doing a "raid" on my massive NipNip farm, taking some buds home for themselves - it is nonetheless just an image I grabbed off my PC while making this group.

The community-driven nature of this community, and of the whole Fediverse, should be reflected in our banner!

Between now and July 30th, submit an image with the phrase "Banner Contest" in the title to take place in a community-wide vote to decide the new banner!

  • Must be an unedited, unmodded No Man's Sky screenshot. Keep in mind that it will be in banner dimensions, so the focus of the screenshot should be fairly narrow in terms of height. The exact height changes based on whether it's viewed on mobile or PC.

  • Must include the words "Banner Contest", spelled correctly, in the title. I'll be depending on the search function to find all the entries, so if the search doesn't find it, I won't find it either.

The banner will remain... until the next contest. Good luck and good journeys travelers!

Hello, fellow Travelers!

The mods here graciously invited me to announce the brand-new No Man's Sky Glyph Exchange community here on lemmy.world ([email protected]). Use this community to share your discoveries and search for discoveries from other Travelers. The intent is to build a reliable, searchable listing of in-game finds of everything from starships to multitools to fauna. Stringent rules on the subject line and post content help make that dream a reality.

Since the community is new, it is a very small (but growing) collection of finds and it will take time to build it up. Contributions from you are what make it work, so please join in and help us grow.

Note: This community is not directly affiliated with the Glyph Exchange on Reddit, but those folks worked super hard to make their sub what it is today and I've adopted their processes nearly verbatim because they work and work well.

Some history behind the Glyph Exchange can be found here. To put it briefly, after having to rebuild their sub once (and quite recently), there was little interest in doing that again in the Fediverse because it was an insane amount of work. Since there is some demand for this community on Lemmy, I took the first steps in getting it started. (If you are a mod on the Reddit sub, I will happily add you as a mod here if you wish.)

So I finally got to the end of the "galaxy reset" mission. I chose "Eissentam" and was transported to the new galaxy... and then I immediately repaired my ship, summoned the Space Anomaly, and used their Teleportation Terminal to get home... I left no base computer or anything behind. How screwed am I?

Revisited the planet from the bathysphere quest line, picked up a sunken ship and hung out at the station for a while to see if anything fun showed up before I scrapped it. Nothing extra special, but hey, if you like yellow…

Also what’s the deal, sorting by new is a bit depressing. Did everyone crawl back to Spez’s basement so soon?
