No Man’s Sky “Singularity” update out now (version 4.30), patch notes and trailer

Hello Games just announced a Singularity update for No Man’s Sky, which is the community expedition ten for the game. This will run for about five weeks.

The event has players exploring a harmonic camp, nestled among the purple-hazed mountains of Ahei XV. The narrative-heavy journey comprises the second chapter of the story introduced in Interceptor. Some exclusive rewards can be obtained as well.

Below are the full patch notes for the No Man’s Sky “Singularity” update (version 4.30):

• Expedition 10, SINGULARITY, will begin shortly, and will run for approximately five weeks.
• The expedition sees players work alone and as a community to solve the mystery of the damaged Autophage heads found abandoned at harmonic camps.
• Rewards for uncovering the mystery and assembling your very own mechanical Construct include a set of unique posters; new jetpack and freighter engine trail customisations; buildable Atlantideum crystals for your base; an exclusive new helmet customisation; and an entire Construct visual customisation set.
• A layer of more hidden clues exists for players who are willing to hunt them out…
• Fixed an issue that caused the third-person camera pitch to be reset after using the Analysis Visor – pitch will now remain consistent as players switch between modes.
• Players who enable auto-follow for the third person camera will now benefit from this setting in the Space Anomaly and aboard Space Stations, as well as on planets.
• The starship’s autopilot will now prevent players from crashing into various space points of interest while engaged on the starship communicator.
• Fixed an issue that prevented some flash-to-white screen fades from respecting the setting that disabled them.

• Corrupted Sentinel drones now have a cooldown on healing that is triggered if they are damaged mid-heal.
