No Man's Sky | Galaxy Hopping Method | Updated For Waypoint

This video gives a strategy I learned to be able to travel to all the galaxies available in a pretty quick timeframe. It uses a black-hole glitch to shortcut you to the center of each galaxy you go to! No need to track down a portal in each galaxy! You will need at least one Portal Glyph unlocked although having them all is quicker.

I simply got to a new galaxy by going through a portal on the Anomaly to a featured base build. Not the same, but now I can go from 2 different galaxies!

Clear and concise!
I have a slower method, but no tech damage, and I don't have to go through so many galaxies that I have no interest in. Every time I visit the Nexus, when I'm done with whatever I came there for, I head to the portal in the Nexus and select the "Space Anomaly" tab which lists all the players who are currently in the same Nexus as you and the system they entered the Nexus from which they have a base. The vast majority will be from Euclid. Fairly often Essentam (#10), but doing this over time you will find a player who has come from some random far off galaxy. Then you just click on their card in the panel and select go to, and you will port to their base system in that galaxy. Drop a base, and you now have access to that galaxy. My main save now has bases in 8 galaxies, almost all of them Lush galaxies.
Also, if there is a specific galaxy you want to get to, there is a taxi service in Discord called "PanGalactic Star Cabs". There's plenty on the web about this service. I've used it once, and it was fantastic, and the nicest folks. The whole process took about 15 minutes, from the time I entered their Discord channel until I was in the galaxy I wanted to go to.

Wow I just learned there is more than one Galaxy this blows my mind, I thought one galaxy was super big... But then again i know very little of this game.. I always thought your goal was to get to the center of the main Galaxy and you beat the Thanks for the video 🤯

The black hole glitch is really interesting. In my "main" game save I went from galaxy 42 (using a featured base) to galaxy 50 "Teyaypilny" which is lush and mostly unexplored.
I did the following for each galaxy:
1. Call my Roamer (with all 3 scanner upgrades)
2. Scan for a monolith.
3. Solve monolith puzzle. Gek and Korvax system monoliths will give you the item you need to find a portal. In Vykeen systems, bring a Vykeen Dagger.
4. Activate portal and go to: bird sun sun bird / triangle tent sun sun / balloon triangle triangle whale (your glyph naming may vary!)
5. Emerge very near or at the galactic centre, typically 0 to 2 systems away.
6. Go to centre, fill hyperdrive, go to next galaxy
Rinse and repeat.
The black hole method sounds quite a bit quicker. I will have to try it.

Some tips:
1) Use two ships, "broken" and normal.
2) When you jump thru the center of a galaxy, use your freighter while your "broken" ship is you current ship. In the new galaxy, call down your normal ship and use that to warp to the next center. Then switch ships in your hanger, and go on to the next center jump with your freighter. Assuming you've archived all your exosuit tech and equipped a burner multitool, there is nothing to fix. You only need a single warp cell to fill your freighter for the next jump.

5:00 "once you see this warp animation and sound, you'll know for certain that the glitch worked for you"
no I'm pretty sure that's just what the game does when you go to the next galaxy. I didn't do anything special, just warped all the way there with my freighter then used starship and it did the same thing once I was on a planet in the new galaxy.

Really cool glitch, I doubt I’ll try it though, I’m currently running two saves, one in Euclid and one in the hilbert galaxy, I have yet to witness any great difference in them. I don’t know if it’s 255 versions of the same thing or can expect different alien factions etc, if not then there sure is enough in the Euclid galaxy to keep me busy…My first play through was on release, and I made it to the center and lost interest as I no longer had goals…it’s a million times better these days, HG have done a great job in fixing and recovering from its disastrous launch..thanks for the video fellow travelers.👍

[lllllspdrlllll]

Cool thanks finally found the two bits of information today that I needed now I can master the universe

[reidveryan]

Thanks, I did not know this. I happened to have built a base at the center of the Euclid Galaxy. Just have to grab myself a burner ship, and do the tech storage like you recommend.

[wantsomecoffe]

When i did my second jump from Hilbert to Calypso, this exact thing happend. Ship, tool and suit was destroyed but i was already only 5k LY from calypso center. Jumped trough that and it spawned me in fourth galaxy at normal range. 700k LY away.

[Osmone_Everony]

I wish HG would implement an official fast way to travel to ANY galaxy. I made a suggestion on their zen desk. There's that huge ring like structure which can be found on some planets. It's currently useless decoration and just gives some lore. This could be used as a galaxy portal. Just enter two glyphs (representing the appropriate galaxy number) into the terminal and then fly with your ship through the ring. You would approach at a random star system in the target galaxy.

Thank you for the video. I didn’t realise this was a “thing”. Clear and concise and well made. Well done👍 Subbed

[mouse]

I needed this 2 days ago!!! Thank you soo much. It's going in my saves

[TheAustralianMapper]

This game really has gotten way better.

[sarahgrant]

Thank you for this, you've saved me a ton of time 😊

[liammurphy]

Saved. Liked. Subbed. Thank you and GL with Channel .

[Grotsque]

As of today this still works, Tho I did not get the warp glitch, but I did spawn 3000ly from the center.

PORTAL ADDRESSES:
I recently returned to NMS, so I din't know when it happened, BUT finding a portal is as easy as taking a photo anywhere even a space station. You only have to enter photo mode and in the bottom left corner of your screen will appear the portal address of the first planet (planet one) of the system. You can find the rest of the portals in the system, by copying the first portal address and changing the first glyph to the next one in line so usually the first glyph will be a bird (2) so for the next planet make it a (3) or the tiki mask. Continue for each planet you want to mark portals. I use this technique in each new system to quickly visit all the planets with no hassles from sentinel authorities as I usually have contraband cargo.
No more hunting for monoliths and being sidetracked with stupid alien ruins. I convert all portal addresses to number format for easy storage and reference. In my spreadsheet which I use to record and track specifics of all the systems I visit, I used to place pictures of the glyphs in the portal address cell but it takes too much resources and can make MS Excel crash. I am in the process of abandoning Excel and transferring all data to MS Access as it will work better in the long term.

[tartarfishgforse]

I gave up till this video. 200 out of 804 as of now i sent trying and only got to 44 .THIS WORKS TY

[Maxzorman]

Works perfectly. Black hole is indeed near the space station.
