How to Find and Use Portals | No Man's Sky Exo Mech Update 2020

Looking for Portals in No Man's Sky? This is how you find portals and how to use them when you are looking for the best ships and coolest locations in No Man's Sky. The Living Ship and Exo Mech update changed some things so there are a few things you have to do differently than before. The biggest thing is getting maps from the cartographer, but that is easy and fast.

More About No Man's Sky:

Inspired by the adventure and imagination that we love from classic science-fiction, No Man's Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action.

In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before - and perhaps never will again.

Play with all 10 major updates since launch: Foundation, Pathfinder, Atlas Rises, NEXT, The Abyss, Visions, the 2.0 BEYOND update, Synthesis, Living Ship and Exo Mech.

An epic voyage to the center of a shared universe awaits, allowing you to explore, trade, fight and survive alone or with friends.

At the center of the galaxy lies a irresistible pulse which draws you on a journey towards it to learn the true nature of the cosmos. But, facing hostile creatures and fierce pirates, you'll know that death comes at a cost, and survival will be down to the choices you make over how you upgrade your ship, your weapon and suit.

Your voyage through No Man's Sky is up to you. Will you be a fighter, preying on the weak and taking their riches, or taking out pirates for their bounties? Power is yours if you upgrade your ship for speed and weaponry.

Or a trader? Find rich resources on forgotten worlds and exploit them for the highest prices. Invest in more cargo space and you'll reap huge rewards.

Or perhaps an explorer? Go beyond the known frontier and discover places and things that no one has ever seen before. Upgrade your engines to jump ever farther, and strengthen your suit for survival in toxic environments that would kill the unwary.

The galaxy in No Man's Sky is a living, breathing place. Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own...

clear explanation as always and i did learn something, I did not know if you changed the colour of beacon it change colour of the location marker you see from space, with being partly colour blind i never normally bother with colour charts, So now i can use the colours i can make out nice one cheers

9:05 jumps instead of placing object

Ok I'm not alone it feels good

[OhShunz]

Just started playing a week ago and I just obtained all my glyphs last night and am super stoked to finally get some real exploring going. I'll start with this locationt. Thanks a ton Jason for the insanely helpful videos that got me started in No Man's Sky!

[reflectedpower]

Just going to add on a little bit. If you elect to collect the glyphs through doing the Artemis storyline, you actually visit several portal locations during the story. Make sure to bookmark or build a base at one and you can easily skip the whole process of having to find a new one later.

Man after 2 hours of searching after watching some other guys vid, I found this vid and it got me right to it simple and Str8 to the point. It took 6 maps to finally get a monolith but hey. Thanks man I'm going to sub for sure.

[pik]

Perfect! I just started No Man's Sky and I am like 30 hours in so far. And I was hoping on a new video like this, I watched your older vids about portals yesterday!

[meggem]

Brand new player with 45 hours logged so far. I completed the Artemis quest without knowing how important the portal was. Thanks for making this video, Jason!! <3

[ZothiamaCF]

Oh man ! Ive bumped into these monoliths a couple of times but I wasn't aware that you had to interact twice sheeesh....anyway thanks Jason for the Info

[callmecomrade]

This has been an unimaginable amount of help, thanks Jason!

[RangerK]

Thanks! Your stuff rocks!! Keep up the good work.

[joshb]

23 hours in, your videos are really informative. I haven’t played this game since release, oh how far it’s come.

[nemoy]

for those who havr accidentally an exo vehicle with a fully upgraded scanner: use your scanner in the quick menu to search for monoliths ; )

[combie]

If you are playing through the storyline, you also come across portals as well, when you do, slap down a base terminal next to the portal and you'll be able to revisit later once you've got all the glyphs :)

[yugen]

Top tip - just build a base computer next to the monolith you find, rename it monolith and don’t build anything. Now you can just teleport there at any time from any portal 👌🏼

[PaulWrightsonLeeds]

A great help and fantastic work by the poor person who had to work it all out. It's nice that people have left messages and things but they sometimes blot out the Grave marker in space - I nearly couldn't find the second from this base because of it.

[cheesebitz]

THAT WAS THE PORTAL? IVE BUMPED INTO ONE OF THESE BY ACCIDENT BUT I DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS A PORTAL

[robertotley]

I subscribed. Clear and to the point no random talking about stuff like 90% of the youtubers do.

[joe-xknl]

Omg! This saved me so much time! I spent a few hours scanning for monoliths in my exocraft and thought that portals were on certain planets. Thank you!

[cyber_steve]

Thank you. This tutorial was super helpful!

[Birthday_Boy_Blam]
