No Man’s Sky NEXT Beginner Tips

no man's sky, xbox one, july 2018

The galaxy in No Man’s Sky is vast and scary at times, and when you feel like you’re running out of resources to keep your gear going, don’t worry. Every planet in the game is stocked with all the necessary resources to prevent you from getting stranded. Fueling your ship’s launch thrusters is the best example to work with here.

In the past, you could quickly mine Plutonium for some fuel. However, with the NEXT update, the launch thrusters can only be filled up with fuel pods or Uranium. And before you start scouring the planetary surface for Uranium, I’ll tell you right now that it’s extremely rare. The best way to keep the thrusters filled up is by crafting fuel pods, which only require Di-hydrogen and Metal Platings, which are crafted with Ferrite Dust. Both resources can be found easily on every planet, and each fuel pod will fill up 50 percent of your launch thrusters, so they’re not that hard to craft.

Be sure to check our wiki for more information on No Man’s Sky and the NEXT update.
