No Man's Sky - Frontier Update - My first Settlement Bobtopia - Coop gameplay
In this video I check out half an hour of the new update. Getting my settlement started and trying to destroy my friends base.
FRONTIERS: INTRODUCING UPDATE 3.6
Become Overseer of your very own procedurally generated alien settlement in update 3.6, FRONTIERS. Make choices, guide your citizens, develop new structures and defend your people from the Sentinels. Or, take advantage of a massive overhaul of base building to construct your own dream base.
PLANETARY SETTLEMENTS
Clusters of trailblazing aliens have banded together to build planetary settlements. These pioneering settlements, full of life and promise, can now be found in inhabited systems all across the universe.
FOUND YOUR OWN SETTLEMENT
Earn the respect of the citizens to become overseer of your very own settlement. As overseer, you’ll be responsible for all aspects of the settler’s lives – naming the town, choosing what to build, commissioning festivals, resolving arguments, repelling the attacks of the Sentinels, and much more.
BREATHTAKING NEBULAS
Interstellar clouds have gathered in deep space to form spectacular multi-coloured nebulas, making space skies more beautiful than ever.
BASE BUILDING GRID MENU
The base building menu has been totally overhauled. Parts are now laid out in a clear grid, allowing fast access to even the rarest of parts.
As well as speed, this overview allows players to see the full range of available parts, helping bring diversity and interest to your builds.
EACH SETTLEMENT UNIQUE
Every settlement is procedurally generated, with unique buildings, neighbourhood layouts, colour schemes, and interior and exterior decoration.
MORE SAVE SLOTS
A new save streaming system has been implemented, making more efficient use of memory. Very large saves are now supported, allowing for thousands of hours of play.
The number of possible save slots has been increased from 5 to 15, and the save select screen now supports scrolling.
ENHANCED DESTRUCTION EFFECTS
Destruction is crunchier and more satisfying, with reworked visual effects for asteroid destruction, Exocraft crashes, crystal mining, terrain editing, and enemy explosions.
HELP SETTLEMENTS GROW
Settlements start off small and modest, with a sparse population and only a few buildings scattered around their town centre. Choose what to build and provide resources to construct new buildings and transform this ramshackle collection of dwellings into a flourishing town!
Different building types influence how your settlement grows. Build farms and factories to increase productivity, or choose to prioritise the comfort and leisure of your citizens with a more relaxed approach to frontier life.
HUNDREDS OF NEW BASE PARTS
Construct your own settlement-inspired bases with a huge array of new base parts. These detailed, high-definition parts are quick and easy to snap together, and yet produce a huge diversity of exciting sci-fi buildings. These new structural sets of timber, stone and alloy pieces create a tremendous range of possible building shapes.

Over a hundred new decorative parts create all-new ways to add personal character to bases.
STEAM TRADING CARDS AND BADGES
Playing No Man’s Sky on Steam will now earn trading card drops, with a total of 15 cards available.
Collect trading cards to craft badges, and earn emoticons and backgrounds for your Steam profile.
DEFEND SETTLEMENTS FROM SENTINELS
Sentinels regard all pockets of civilisation with hostility, and as time passes, a prosperous settlement will inevitably draw sentinel attention. Research defensive buildings to keep the alert level low, or engage attacking drones in combat!
