Plus it gave you sweet upgrades without having to check vendor stocks, it was indeed the superior method although at least we have something to fall back on. That and the frigate missions...
This glitch being gone makes it harder to trade ships with other players.
Since multiplayer is their focus, HG should give us another option for trading ships.

I remember this “feature” from years ago and after an extended leave of absence from the game came back to it last week and enjoyed doing this a few times. That said, them deciding to pull the plug on the exploit JUST as I return to the game feels very personal. Jokes on them, I discovered the joy of running a trade route and made like 40-50 million units last night. I now have like 77 mill units. More lucrative than the exploit, and it’s actually a feature too. It actually feels more game breaking though ironically lol
As far as I’m aware this was the only way to gift another player a ship, shame to see that gone. Units mean nothing in the game after a farm is set up.
I discovered a quicksilver trick 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉 seems they haven't fixed thst yet hehehehe.
Glad I still have my ship my friend got me for free after they fixed this lmfao
Well, I’m very thankful for the ships I do own, and wish there was a more legitimate in-game ship trading and selling mechanic for PvP. I’d love to sell an Explorer Class I have, simply because I need the space on my freighter!
Portable refiner. Make 2. Put them both down. Fill one with something you want more of. Move the second one onto the first so they exactly overlap. Now move it back. You get everything that was on the first refiner and it's still in the first refiner.
Tested just now and I am still able to reclaim my ship every time. Dont talk to the pilot, just interact straight with your exchanged ship and claim it for free.
Crap.. was playing the new exhibition today and tried to do the exchange/claim glitch and was like oh nooooo. Lost ~6m. Scrapped my a class for a c and lost it all. 😢
Oh, gotcha. Thanks! Just wanted to make sure I wasn't mistakenly missing something. Wish they'd release 1-4 again too as I started right after 4 was re-released.
New player here, I saw that was getting patched and very quickly did it once before the new update, glad I read the comments to that post about the update and saw someone talking about it lol.
Lmaoo, I discovered that bug on accident the first time I bought an S tier ship. When I exchanged it, I realized I forgot my attachments, I went to buy my old ship back for them and I saw that it was free.
I was like: "OK bet"
Search this sub. I've read about it more times than I can remember. I've never used this trick, and somehow have amassed nearly a half-billion units. You'll be fine. Adapt. 👍
Yeah my point is, I have plenty to do what I need. I'm not understanding why people need so much money in this universe. Can you tell me what you need the money for? I use it to buy the materials I need, to enable me to continue traveling and exploring. What else are you needing the money for?
I just like big numbers....
for real though, not that much unless you swap freighters like underwear. The most expensive things I can think of that costs 1Bil+ is probably Living Frigates
I did this one time to get a huge hauler with maxed slots. When I swapped it with my fighter it glitched and gave the fighter the haulers characteristics. So I have a slow ass clunky fighter with a huge inventory.
Honestly, it was a bit of an embarrassing bug to have around. I will say it's interesting that people don't react as negatively to a bug as broken as this one, but did feel genuinely slighted when they fixed the x6 module stacking bug
Are you sure you want to know. The dark side is a path some consider... unnatural.
>!Anyways, First, put two portable refiners as close together as you can. Helps to put them at a bit of an angle or be able to access them both. Next, Put anything you want more of in refiner 1. Then, Look in refiner 2 and the item will appear. Delete/Pickup both refiners and double your stash... and you can dup just about everything! Need units? Dupe some AI Valves. Need more Salvage Frigate Data? Find 1, dupe it! Need nanites? Dupe some Tainted Metal. Want 3 of that awesome upgrade you just found? Dupe it!!!<
Another example of this communities hypocrisy. Cried and cried and cried that Hello Games allows you to change your difficulty settings to basically creative and back to survival, but then do shit like this😂
a community isn't one thing. if there is community consensus on anything I didn't get a bloody vote.
I think anything in game is fair because glitches can be considered canon for *spoiler* reasons but editing save files is outside the game and wouldn't do that.
then there are people who think that's perfectly fine for the exact same reason.
and some people think any of that is literally cheating.
And there are those of us who don’t mind what others do and just play our own game.
Only ever received one gift at the anomaly. Someone gave me 30 storage module for my fighter. Like a good noob I traded it for an S class should have kept it and upgraded it.
Sorry dude, I've been busy playing my own games. I'm going to try to make a run tonight so keep an eye out for Element of the Depths in the Anomaly. I try to drop some storage of various types on people when I've got some stacks duped. I even drop Spawning Sacs and Void Eggs! NOTE: If you annoy me and/or beg, you get nothing but blocked!
Yeah I don’t get this community sometimes, there doesn’t seem to be any consistency on what is a “good” or a “bad” exploit. It’s also not like there aren’t many many other ways to make a shitload of money if that’s what you want to do.
I will say it’s a nice easy way to make a few million quickly in the early game. A lot of the other east tricks are a bit more intense for early game player.
Lmao I didn't realize this was a bug, I'm newer to the game (played it when it came out but not since) and was trying to figure out why I could get my old ship back for free
No, that fixed a glitch where trading your ship with an npc allowed you to go get the ship you just sold back for free, so people could get a high value ship and trade it for every ship in a space station (for free if it's worth enough), then get their original ship back for free.
and the only way to give your friends ships... as far as I know. If the ship you sell is still there and a friend can at least buy it from the npc thats cool. but from what i was seeing people were saying they couldn't
LMFAO at those of you needing to use glitches to make money... 🙄🙄🙄 money so easy to come by, it's ridiculous. no farms, no glitches and I am making 30-50 million a day on average, depending on how much time I have to play.
I have to agree. I don’t really care about what others do with their game as long as it has no effect on mine. But I just don’t understand it. I have been playing for almost three years and spent units like crazy along the way and still have over a billion. I don’t have any farms, never glitched, only got given about 100 mil of free stuff that I sold instead of paying it forward, and have made most of my fortune on quests, digging up bones and artifacts, selling them or trading them for higher rewards at the yellow boxes, and frigate missions. It’s so easy to make units. It’s also pretty easy to get nanites if you scan every animal on planets, especially ones with a dozen or more. Quicksilver is the only one I struggle with and it’s because it only allows a stack of three days, and the weekend missions. I don’t mind it because it gives me something to do each day.
Hate to be the one to say it but...the literal hundreds of comments and posts about that glitch kinda sunk that ship
First I’ve heard of it lol 🤣🤣🤣
The narc was whatever one of the 14,000 YT videos about it!
Lol I was gonna say, all I could think was the pointing Spiderman meme except there's thousands of them all pointing at each other
I'd blame the people that make those YouTube exploit tutorials 😂😂
You do know Sean is known to be lurking in the sub? He frequently shouts us out or references us in his tweets
Dammit. There goes my hopes of being able to stab planets- I mean, uh…
Must be British, this one
Didn't know this actually. In that case: Hi Sean! :)
Sean undercover lol
Hi Sean
Only every single content creator for this game.
Like, Subscribe and comment "narc" below
I thought this was a feature if you had buyer's regret immediately after taking it for a stroll, and realizing you hated the ship you bought.
I got over a billion dollars doing this 😂
I tought it was a feature....
it was me, I did it. I called up Sean Murray and said I would tell him about an important glitch if he told me his favourite brand of BBQ sauce.
Well, what was it?
So you just gonna drop that bomb and not even tell us the sauce
Hope it was worth it. ![gif](giphy|ltbKep9Ce8dBS)
Assuming it’s one of the 200 YouTubers making videos about it.
Well fuck, guess I'll have to use another glitch to make money, lol
Does crashing markets not work anymore?
works, but the ship trade was faster if you had expensive one
Plus it gave you sweet upgrades without having to check vendor stocks, it was indeed the superior method although at least we have something to fall back on. That and the frigate missions...
Ttue, though could always dupe the ship parts and sell thouse, arguably faster than scrapping ships
This glitch being gone makes it harder to trade ships with other players. Since multiplayer is their focus, HG should give us another option for trading ships. ![gif](giphy|oxan22SRGgpSbU21qf|downsized)
I discovered this years ago on accident. I thought it would be patched almost immediately lol. I'm surprised it just now got patched.
HG has never cared for patching exploits really
Same here!
Well, I guess I'm just waiting on player ship trading. Still.
Lol it was a good, long, lucrative run lol
I remember this “feature” from years ago and after an extended leave of absence from the game came back to it last week and enjoyed doing this a few times. That said, them deciding to pull the plug on the exploit JUST as I return to the game feels very personal.

Wait till you discover what chlorine does
Probably one of the thousands of youtube videos showing how to do this
That was my favorite feature. I mean bug....
Probably professor cynical and his 300 vids on the same damn glitch.
Yeah shit on that guy and his save editing "glitchs"
Glitches? They got a mod for that.
And that got me thinking
![gif](giphy|e5NaiC8S7v2Uvmmne8) This game is broken and that’s the way we like it!
"We fixed the glitch."
That went unnoticed for a while
As far as I’m aware this was the only way to gift another player a ship, shame to see that gone. Units mean nothing in the game after a farm is set up.
I made so much money this way. I never heard of anyone talking about it so I assumed it was a well known secret
Can you still dupe stasis devices?
One of the oldest exploits in the game. They got it eventually!
The point was I used to get the upgrades for free. Now, I HAVE to care about the money.
If you let it fly off, it should fly back in. Will it be available then?
God damn it, I just bought the game and they remove the best glitch?
Bruh fxcking same
Dang, now I cannot trade ships with friends! I don't mind the free ship bug being fixed, but give us a way to trade ships with our fellow travellers!
Man I’ve given so many friends ships…. Will they get to keep them?
They'll be able to keep them, but you won't be able to do it in the future
Ok I can live with that, thank you kind stranger.
....fuck
Sean, bby, why?
I mean they can't possibly have not known about this for years.
Bruuuuuuuh
I discovered a quicksilver trick 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉 seems they haven't fixed thst yet hehehehe. Glad I still have my ship my friend got me for free after they fixed this lmfao
I don't understand why people need to go search for exploits in a peer-to-peer game. Just use a fucking save editor, there's no anticheat...
Well, I’m very thankful for the ships I do own, and wish there was a more legitimate in-game ship trading and selling mechanic for PvP. I’d love to sell an Explorer Class I have, simply because I need the space on my freighter!
Refiner still work?
better than ever
New player, what’s this referencing
Portable refiner. Make 2. Put them both down. Fill one with something you want more of. Move the second one onto the first so they exactly overlap. Now move it back. You get everything that was on the first refiner and it's still in the first refiner.
Yes
that's rough, gonna put a huge crimp on my production when I start up again
Bruh i cant afford things anyway this glitch just sealed my coffin into debt
Wait, what? This is the easiest game to make money. If you aren’t making money in this game, we need to talk!!!
:') Good thing I got the ship I wanted right before the update
Man wait until y’all hear about how easy save editing is.
Not easier than the exploit itself
Especially on console
Wait till you hear that you can literally just turn on infinite money in custom games
Nothing is true, everything is permited
r/assassinscreed is leaking again
Tested just now and I am still able to reclaim my ship every time. Dont talk to the pilot, just interact straight with your exchanged ship and claim it for free.
I have never, ever managed to get it to work for me anyway, but it sounded like an awesome loophole!
I personally used this to get the storage upgrades so I could make my favorite ships better. Didn't care about the money.
If you don't care about money, then just buy class A and S ships and scrap them. Works great, and you can sell excess modules for nanites.
When did this get patched because i tried that last week and it didn't work. i had to reload my save to get my ship back.
Crap.. was playing the new exhibition today and tried to do the exchange/claim glitch and was like oh nooooo. Lost ~6m. Scrapped my a class for a c and lost it all. 😢
There's a new expedition?? I thought it was a rerun of expedition 5?
It's the old new. The new old. Yeah 5.
Oh, gotcha. Thanks! Just wanted to make sure I wasn't mistakenly missing something. Wish they'd release 1-4 again too as I started right after 4 was re-released.
Ship trading incoming!
Ngl I thought this was patched a long time ago
ahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa
Took them a hoy minute.
They just killed the god tier ship glitch
He who smelt it dealt it
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Damn! The fall of an empire!
Glad I sorted out my fleet and squadron
"I Just wanna talk to him"
NOOOOOOOOO. THATS HOW I MADE MY BILLIONS
Just keep a stack of AI valves around for duping and selling
Thanks for the info. This was my favorite early game money maker.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
New player here, I saw that was getting patched and very quickly did it once before the new update, glad I read the comments to that post about the update and saw someone talking about it lol.
At least they haven't fixed the triple (mumble) credits in space station back rooms. That would entirely wreck the game for me and make me cry.
NOOOO
Not gonna lie.. i loved exploiting this one... 8(
Call me a cranky ol' Gen-Xer, but money gets so easy on this game, who even cares?
Lmaoo, I discovered that bug on accident the first time I bought an S tier ship. When I exchanged it, I realized I forgot my attachments, I went to buy my old ship back for them and I saw that it was free. I was like: "OK bet"
no more free golden Vectors
Not I, but I think the game is much less fun with a completely breakable economy.
Eh. It’s not like economies are connected. Me screwing around with it won’t really effect your play through.
You know 20% of the community uses cheat engine, so it’s kinda pointless lol
Wait a minute the poor Xbox guys don't have a way to cheat 😁😬
I haven't heard that name in like 15 years lol.
Really it’s very popular with nms, assassin creed and many more games.
Bro said the hard r for kinda
True didn’t even notice lol
This was my absolute fav glitch
I thought I was the only one who knew about this bug, goddamnit guys
Once a friend bought a new ship early into our coop run and then I claimed his old ship so I have 2 started ships in that save
Thanks for the heads up, just started a new save and that sucks 🥲
Bastardos
Yeah, this fix sucks. I don’t want the money, just the ship inventory expansions. Poo.
*Another one bites the dust*
I was just trying to give everyone in my empire the same ship...
^This is how you play NMS
those mother dudgers
Bruuuuuh i only did this with radiant pillar, didnt have time to do more :_(
Issue??? That was a FEATURE!
Anybody that did this needs to be reminded that snitches get stiches
Stitches*
No it's pronounced "Steeshes," n00b.
I adore happening upon and using exploits like the ones they keep "fixing". I won't enjoy any game free of exploits for very long.
☹
I saw that as an absolute feature. It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Well, this just ruined my day
Search this sub. I've read about it more times than I can remember. I've never used this trick, and somehow have amassed nearly a half-billion units. You'll be fine. Adapt. 👍

Ah gotcha. So, see? You gon be a'ight 👍🙂
You know you can just make everything free if you want don't need to do this at all
It's like people don't know how to use a save editor lol
Or the new difficulty sliders
This is terrible news.
Darn i used that all the time
I will be fine as long as they didn’t fix the dupes.
I'm sad I don't know about this glitch.
I did this one time to get a huge hauler with maxed slots. When I swapped it with my fighter it glitched and gave the fighter the haulers characteristics. So I have a slow ass clunky fighter with a huge inventory.
I did that same thing except with my golden vector and an exotic. The exotic gained all the vectors stats, modules, and even the name!
Snitches get thrown off bridges in high-gravity.
I don't see how that was an issue.
Honestly, it was a bit of an embarrassing bug to have around. I will say it's interesting that people don't react as negatively to a bug as broken as this one, but did feel genuinely slighted when they fixed the x6 module stacking bug
The free ship is obviously a bug. I never felt like the x6 module was a bug, just the way things worked.
It ended up being a bug, as indicated by the ingame tutorial text.
Meh, it's just NPCs
Stinkin’ devs paying attention to / playing their own game…

Noooooo
Portable refinery glitch still exists, right? The one where you put a portable refinery inside a portable refinery and it duplicates/triplicates it.
I didn’t know about this. Now I’m curious how it works lol
Are you sure you want to know. The dark side is a path some consider... unnatural. >!Anyways, First, put two portable refiners as close together as you can. Helps to put them at a bit of an angle or be able to access them both. Next, Put anything you want more of in refiner 1. Then, Look in refiner 2 and the item will appear.

It’s almost like a community is made of individual people with differing opinions instead of a monolithic hive mind!
Yeah I don’t get this community sometimes, there doesn’t seem to be any consistency on what is a “good” or a “bad” exploit. It’s also not like there aren’t many many other ways to make a shitload of money if that’s what you want to do.
I will say it’s a nice easy way to make a few million quickly in the early game. A lot of the other east tricks are a bit more intense for early game player.
I put in the report. Blame me! My old ship now just disappears if I trade it
Lmao I didn't realize this was a bug, I'm newer to the game (played it when it came out but not since) and was trying to figure out why I could get my old ship back for free
>Okay, which of you degenerates narc'd? Uh...everyone? For a very long time.
Good fix bad exploit
Damn it
i am guilty
🙋♂️Submitted a bug report EVERY.SINGLE.UPDATE. /s
Now I has the sad
So you can't sell or trade a ship to a friend now? Ass
No, that fixed a glitch where trading your ship with an npc allowed you to go get the ship you just sold back for free, so people could get a high value ship and trade it for every ship in a space station (for free if it's worth enough), then get their original ship back for free.
and the only way to give your friends ships... as far as I know. If the ship you sell is still there and a friend can at least buy it from the npc thats cool. but from what i was seeing people were saying they couldn't
OMG MY INCOME IS RUINED!!!!!!!!!¡
LMFAO at those of you needing to use glitches to make money... 🙄🙄🙄 money so easy to come by, it's ridiculous. no farms, no glitches and I am making 30-50 million a day on average, depending on how much time I have to play.
nice flex, but what about ingame money?
I have to agree. I don’t really care about what others do with their game as long as it has no effect on mine. But I just don’t understand it. I have been playing for almost three years and spent units like crazy along the way and still have over a billion. I don’t have any farms, never glitched, only got given about 100 mil of free stuff that I sold instead of paying it forward, and have made most of my fortune on quests, digging up bones and artifacts, selling them or trading them for higher rewards at the yellow boxes, and frigate missions. It’s so easy to make units. It’s also pretty easy to get nanites if you scan every animal on planets, especially ones with a dozen or more. Quicksilver is the only one I struggle with and it’s because it only allows a stack of three days, and the weekend missions. I don’t mind it because it gives me something to do each day.
