Thinking about giving it a shot again because I got premium and get Terran Armada for free. How many modders still mod for this game? Are almost all mods around launch broken?
guys, I’ve been out of the loop for a while. My newsletter told me that Starfield is coming to PS5, and there’s both a new free update and a new story DLC. I was taken aback by this.That said, my original save file is borked, it takes too long to load and some of the moon locations are like wedged into the sun or are way out in space, so I can’t really access them anymore. This is also my completionist NG+10 universe, so I’d rather not jump to a new universe, even though I know it’d fix everything.
Shilling this mod again because it should be a mandatory part of your sound modshttps://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/16239
Now this is gaming journalism I can get behind!
>>563263710OK then
IT'S OUTT'SOUThttps://youtube.com/watch?v=BXTqi9AqkQI
>>563263710The free update is best experienced with a fresh start if you want to use a lot of the cruise mode.
>>563264702Isnt this the dude that crashed out at Gradius because it was too hard for him?
PSA: horizontal boost pack is now the default
>>563264173Where's the other 300k?Ah right. Playing real games.Enjoy your Bethslop.
How many people will still be playing Starfield in 10 years?
>>563265645A lot more especially if it keeps getting patches and DLC.
>>563265645Probably a few thousand daily. Could be more if that Star Wars mod blows up.
>>563264798Did they fix the Astra guy in the TA ? He only gives cowboy guns if you joined the Freestar rangers.
>>563266643That’s to be expected. I wanted more Starborn stuff, but a secret army of robots from earth is lame.
>>563262604>it could be a disaster especially if the eso lore guy is in charge.I honestly think that would be better than a pure Todd/Emil team. ESO has done a lot of stupid shit over the years but its also been willing to play with the weird, fun parts of the setting that Todd doesn't give a shit about, so they could offer him some much needed pushback when he inevitably tries to water everything down into a generic sludge.
>>563267408>the most generic MMO “lore” slop>funESO is a blight on TES’s world building. The fact they recycled Skyrim’s story for Elswyer is a joke.Emil is a mixed bag, but he didn’t touch the MQ for Starfield, he only handled faction quests like the Crimson Fleet, which is the strongest part of the game.
>>563267798The sad fact is that they're all blights, there's no one left at the company that isn't going to botch the setting so its just a question of which method of botching you find least awful. I'd rather have ESO's questionable depictions than Todd just chopping things out left and right.
>>563269610Todd Howard was right at the end of the day. Elder scrolls stood out amongst a glut of generic fantasy games when it first came out but pivoting to generic fantasy on the height of Lord of the rings was a brilliant decision and why elder scrolls sold so many copies. In the end TESVI will have a more generic fantasy on the forefront because people havent gotten a good fantasy game in ages while putting the weirder lore in the background for the TES nerds.
Can I not fast travel to a free lanes destination like I can a planet? Flying to it is boring.It reminds me of running to a POI back when Starfield just launched. Just 3 minutes of running to a dot, with nothing important happening.Am I doing something wrong?
>>563259254>>563267408they booted will shen (the guy who ripped off the far harbor mod but also was semi competent) i think they have to outsource their writing at this point, and hope to sidestep as much of emil's tard nonsense as possible
>>563270823Yeah just fast travel the old fashioned way
>>563270949>bootedHe wrote starfield's main story quest and left to another company because he wasnt getting promotions.
>>563271075i think he fucked up. even staying as emil's lapdog sure is preferable to consulting on subnautica lore. unless the new game is widlly different from the 1st game i played.
>>563270990How?Look at the screenshot, there's only autopilot and then wait.Whereas planets, like in this screenshot, you can fast travel to.
>>563271271nvm i got rekt by google pajeetspic rel is where he went off to, not much better kek
>>563271271At the time when he left the gaming industry was looking a whole lot healthier, now with all the flops incoming I really doubt that these EX AAA devs can make any real good games that would survive. Staying at bethesda would be a whole lot secure in terms of job security compared to making more outside of it.
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/the-elder-scrolls/skyrims-co-lead-designer-says-starfields-main-problem-is-that-it-never-fully-cohered-as-a-game-it-was-a-releasable-game-but-it-wasnt-the-best/pretty interesting read. it seems that a lot of nu-thesda's problems come from the fact that todd & co. don't have ENOUGH control, and that they're mainly being forced to work with middle managers instead of the devs to cater to modern AAA needs
Lads CD got a new updatebut i want to play SFfuck sake i dont have enough time to play these gigantic games man
>>563271708Todd Howard did say they couldnt find the fun in Starfield until much later. I do agree that it's better to push the game out and to improve it once you have players zone in on the biggest issues like with the freelanes update. As long as they keep updating and improving upon the game with player feedback, they can make something really special over time. Player feedback is key to great games now.
>>563271954crimson desert is dumb as hell for not including a char creator
>>563272294Theres a mod already in the works But i also want to explore the galaxy
>>563271954CD feels like the kinda game you'll come back to a year later and it'll have everything fixed up. The devs seem to be trying to change everything without proper testing so it'll take a while before things stabilize.
>>563272472Nothings being fixed theyre just listening to player feedback and pretty fast too
>>563272003i doubt todd has been involved with starfield outside of a zoom call where he nods since 2023, aside from being a talking face repeating talking points he gets from the skeleton crew working on the game. he has the fallout TV show, TES6 and FO5 to keep him plenty busy.
>>563272436yeah but its not a real char creator. its just like using NPC faces as presets
>>563272610the game didn't ship in a complete state and it's obvious they're just working thru the backlog. the feedback being "listened" to is just the fact that the most egregious features are also things high up in the backlog.>>563272472i'm a fomo retard so i had to play it at launch, but if you care about having the best experience this is the way. that said the game just has a fundemental lack of actual narrative content (and meaningful side content in general) so depending if you like your open world games being narrative driven or not, CD either is or isnt for you
>>563271954What the fuck is CD?
>>563272836Fair>>563272962>game didn't ship in a complete stateI'm not even gonna interact with that statement>>563273245Crimson desertOk back to starfield please
StarUI fix (guy is continuously updating it, but this version works as is):https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12Bq-BSLYytkc9VSTS8oojBdErs1VtqKL
>>563273338I've heard it breaks when gear has 4 mods
>>563273406He just pushed out another update 30 minutes ago. He's going to bed now though.
>>563263658Game is dead no one is modding for it. The "SkyUI" equivalent for it isn't even getting updated lmao
>>563273332character switchingcharacter progressiontradingfishingfarminganimal husbandrycontrolslock on featuregear progressionunique mounts that were advertisedi could probably go on. all of the "features" are obvious leftovers from the MMO state.
praxisUI chads have NO ISSUES
>>563273507And they're fun
>>563271954Im waiting for like a year before touching Crimson Desert. Probably be like 40 buckos by then and all the issues fixed and maybe even some good LEWD mods.
>>563273579eating shit and cardboard is also fun to some people, but i wouldn't call it fun myself. it would call it eating shit and cardboard. just like the game being an unfinished mess.
>>563273569Honestly, Praxis Inventory is really nice, it even has categories for food and contraband. All it needs to be not shit is icons.
>issues fixed>in a bethesda game generaloh im laffin btw
>>563271954I kinda like it. Boredom point can be reached quick in Starfield, nice to have another cake to eat when that happens.
>>563273646You do realize you're playing starfield right? And SF at launch was an utter disaster on the same terms as cyberpunk on launch right?CD is nowhere near that point at all>>563273854Based you can like both games and just alternate
>>563273967>And SF at launch was an utter disaster on the same terms as cyberpunk on launch right?list all the features that were brokein in starfield outside of the settlement system (and I'm being generous here, since it was more just a visual glitch because the way the NPC spawn logic worked)
>>563274141Is this a troll attempt? Have you not seen the videos and articles when SF launched?
>>563274780are you going to start listing the features that were incomplete?
Dropped the game after release back in 2023, I basically only focused on the main quest, then did a buch of NG+ to upgrade my powers before burning out.Coming back to it and basically ignoring the constellation stuff actually is way more enjoyable this time around (started from scratch on a new save).I maxed out the difficulty options which really make it more fun desu, although i wish fuel was an actual thing (i'm cautious about using mods/creations), and I wish there was a way to completely disable fast-travel (even to quickly leave the ship).I don't really mind the quick flashes to black when entering a building, but I really wish they would have made a better attempt at masking the transitions when landing/taking off from planets. Or gravity driving.I'd like to be able to keep walking around my ship even whilst landing and grav-jumping, just to help immersion.It's not a dealbreaker for me, but it would definitely make it nicer.Sidenote, is it possible to upgrade the Starborn powers before you enter the unity? I don't really want to do NG+ this time around, but I'd still like to eventually upgrade all the powers.
>>563275113Seems like you need to at least jump once before being able to upgrade powers with Starbornium Cum.
>>563275113Look up a mod called Revelation, I think that will give you what you want, but the new Starborn power upgrade system (combining powers and so on) is only accessible in NG+
>>563275113You're not a full starborn until you enter unity once so you cant upgrade all the powers until you get to NG+
>>563271954>Crimson SHITdomStarfield may be flawed, but it has more soul than that boring ai slop game
i fixed my database screen issue by doing nothing but updating my creations
>>563275253>you cant upgrade all the powers until you get to NG+>You can now rank up your unlocked Starborn abilities using Quantum Essence without starting New Game+ and finding additional templeshttps://bethesda.net/en/game/starfield/article/7IxZSKYwYm1oDr57rXDx4C/starfield-free-lanes-terran-armadaWhich way is it?
>>563271301Exit cruise modeCycle through targets until you get the poi you wantThey're not normally visible but if you can see it in cruise then you should be able to target itThen you can fast travel to it like usual
>>563275616Im afraid you'd have to test it out yourself, I dont have starborn powers unlocked on my playthrough so far.
>>563275616There are two different systems. You can upgrade your powers like you're used to from NG+ without doing NG+, but there is a new set of modifiers you can do powers now. To access that, you need to do NG+.
>>563274969Flying, Exploration, Performance and you know it
>>563275987>flyingyou mean jetpacking? what issues did it have?>Exploration??????>Performance?????????????????????????? i maxed the game at 60 fps, probably ran better than fallout 4 especially boston.
>>563275660Well, I can see it outside of cruise mode (after finding it in cruise mode), but I still can't fast travel to it.When I cycle through available locations to fast travel to by pressing A, it simply isn't included.>>563275812>but there is a new set of modifiers you can do powers nowWhat?
>>563276124Ok you're being disingenuous on purpose, last (you)
>>563276148>retard can't explain what is broken about the game because he didn't play at launch and only watched youtubers who parrot reddit retards calls someone disingenuousyou are the one disingenuous here nigger.post ANY kind of digital evidence you played at launch bitch.
Greetings from Jakarta.Game bad, I am cool.
What would it take to port SkyUI to Starfield? I hate everything about the inventory in SF.
any mods that give you more info in the loot window?
is starui hud also dead? can't see the icons.
>>563276137Watch the Dev Vlog where they talk about how they changed powers. >>563276442Scroll up the thread.
nobdy told me theres a new robo companion in the well
>>563276596He's fucking useless. Just throw him on the ship and leave him there.
Project Hail Mary is out on the 7 seas. Is it as good as Starfield?
>>563276596The weak should fear the strong.
how do i get that chick infront of the goyim bank shes just telling me she needs a bank job
>>563276526>Watch the Dev Vlog where they talk about how they changed powers.Are you referring to using essence to increase the starborn power regen rate? Because you could already do that.The only other thing they mention is upgrading the powers.
>>563276886Do some quests and come back.
>>563275197 >>563275217 >>563275253Thanks anons, i guess i'll try and rush through to NG+ first.At least this time I don't have to go through a bunch of other NG+ runs...
What's the refresh rate like on the hostage rescue missions? I kind of want to grind those out for companion affinity and I want to fuck both Sarah and Andreja. Starting on the UC Vanguard stuff because Sarah supposedly gets a bunch of affinity up for doing things in that questline
>60fps UI modthis is mandatory
>>563277851Don't forget to abuse the sim pit to get your class C license in like an hour.
Why can i fasttravel from a planet directly to another planets POI
Returning player here that started from scratch. I'm kinda curious on if I should just blast through to NG+ and then make my life there or just do a normal playthrough. What did you guys do?
>>563278246Can you choose who is placed where?
>>563279060doesn't seem like it
There's a mod up that lets you fly closer to planetshttps://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/16425
>>563279498oh shit nice
https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/2718?tab=poststhis one is also mandatory
Please tell me theres a mod for HD planet textures this shi be looking like the ps1 daysAlso why the FUCK is my performance gone down significantlyDoes this game have a save degredation shit every other bethesda game has?
>>563280371There is but it's hugehttps://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/14207?tab=files
>>563280467Eh i got the spaceIm not really seeing an improvement hto
>>563280371>Does this game have a save degredation shit every other bethesda game has?Sadly it does. The result of not forcing a limit on the player means saves get bloated the more you explore and grab items, and it's a lot worse for Starfield with all the locations you can generate. Bethesda really needs to implement a means to delete locations you're not going to go back to, though there is a mod that can do that, but I think it's still largely experimental.
greatgame crashed
>>563279498
>>563280782So what do you do against that
>>563280996You can either use the save cleaner mod which may lead to bugs, or enter the Unity and go into NG+. Getting rid of any junk you might be hoarding can help a bit too.
why the fuck is cruise mode so buggy?why cant i set a marker on a planet i want to go and just use cruise modewhy are planets just a little dot and why am i not stopping in the system when i exit cruise mode
Grav Dash, Solar Flare and Gravity Well are your friends against the bullet spongy enemies of this DLC
>>563281237>So buggySeems to be related to a specific PoI but no one has fixed it yet. >Marker on planetGood question. That should be made into a mod since Bethesda clearly didn't think it through enough. >Just a little dotExplain?
>>563281886>Explain?i activated cruise mode and flew to a specific planetbut all the planets were just little dot markers in space
Explosive shotgun is my friend. Just have to avoid killing myself with explosions (impossible task).
>>563278874Hi, I personally recommend you stick to your character, and then speedrun to NG+10, at least. This way, you will experience the following by the time you jump 10 universes:>each New Game Plus (NG+) iteration up to NG+10 increases the difficulty by making enemies deal roughly 10% more damage and take less damage from you, stacking to a total of +100% incoming damage and reduced damage output by NG+10. This makes ground combat more rewarding, since you’ll have an excuse to use your Starborn powers. That said, it makes ship combat a pain in the ass and essentially insta-death, there’s no way to fix this except to go to the settings menu and lower enemy ship dmg to the lowest.
>>563281949If you're not seeing the planets, that probably means they're disappearing. This might be caused by having too many mods installed
>>563282148i have like 4 mods installed none alter gameplay or add stuff
Someone please for the love of god explain how the hell i can counter hazardous planet environmentsLike, on one there's acid rain so i take all my gear that has a high corrosive value, but i after some beeping i still get an affliction
>>563280992soul
>>563282218Try relaunching the game and see if that helps. Things can sometimes have issue rendering properly if you freshly installed a mod from the Creation Club and didn't restart the game. Might be a good idea to restart your computer to clear corrupt data out of your ram, or even delete pipeline.cache so it can regenerate.
>>563281985I’m more worried about collateral damage. Fortunately for my character, he doesn’t care about it in the slightest, as long as it gets the job done.Btw, anyone else feels like being an asshole is much more rewarding in Starfield than any other game? Too bad being a criminal doesn’t pay much to justify the ridiculous bounties, it’s like Bethesda hard-nerfed it because it was too easy to get rich during playtesting.
>>563282391Turn off the environmental damage setting in your Gameplay Options
>>563282608But i don't want to?
Starfield is more of a sandbox game with the edges filed off, it's not as frustrating as other sandbox games but you still have to figure out what kind of character you're gonna be roleplaying in the world.

They were incorrectly set as abilities instead of diseases, as weathers are, which caused them to completely ignore resistances.
>>563276526that fix is for starui inventory, not the hud.
i uh found a camp where theres black metal blaring and lvl 10 people shooting at mewhat the fuck
>>563284256Is it called Vulture’s Roost? Btw, that place SCREAMS cut content and was designed for a temperate planet with a breathable atmosphere, just like the other place that is someone’s manor filled with low-level Crimson Fleet bad guys.
>>563285478its just called abandoned training facility on a random moon
>>563285478It totally feels like some half planned final mission where you finally going after the bad guys in ecliptic.

>>563263354is it feasible to create a follower that can be influenced to become either a paragon or a renegade depending on your speech skills and dialogue choices?
>>563285801I hate Bethesda so much. The fucking Tracker Alliance chick still remains unnamed.
>>563286442What do you mean create?
>>563286730write and implement. or maybe mod an existing follower like sarah.
>>563286814No idea. Don't expect anyone here to know either. I only know of a single mod that adds new, custom followers.
I’ll start NG+11 and finally side with the Crimson Fleet, I don’t care about the XP anymore.
So, who's fine with space piracy and murder?Obviously Jessamine, Mathis and Adoring Fan. Anyone else? I wish we could hire based Genghis Khan.
i guess you could say the game has.. /stag/nated
>>563282641just turn off the game
>>563287743???
Pete Hines did an interview saying he left because microsoft was ruining everything and that Todd was the only one holding anything together. Starfield will never get better. TES6 will never be good. RIP to the Toddlike genre
>>563288564I wouldn't worry too much about that, it just means that these games will never appeal to normalfags. Hell, barely anything that wasn't Skyrim appealed to normalfags
>a lot of people who hated Starfield are now starting to change their opinions on itThe redemption arc is slow, but steady
>>563288564I’m surprised that it was even legal for Microsoft to buy up both Zenimax and activision-blizzard, thus shit wouldn’t have passed in a first world country.
>>563289126List them. Biggest ones are probably Puke Stephens and Cohhh, and Cohhh will never forgive Todd.
>>563288564I read the interview, Pete Hines was just mad that he went from Zenimax's marketing director to being someone who had to ask MS's permission to do things. He says he wants to protect Bethesda but Zenimax under his call had a ton of marketing blunders thanks to him.
>>563263658You did not get Terran Armada for free, you fucking animal, you paid for it. Dropping the price of the game and increasing it by exactly what the DLC is is not "buying it for free" what the fuck mentality is this you fucking goyim
>>563290532I got it for free with my purchase. Blow me.
>>563290010cohhh loved starfield when it came out but changed his tune when reddit started to hate on it. go watch his vods if you don't believe me.
>>563286389>bullet sponges>challegingFor mentally challenged maybe
>>563286389>They’re nerfed as fuck beforeThere's plenty of mods to make your life even more miserable if very hard setting is still not enough for you
>>563276137Ok I was sort of wrongApparently you can fast travel but only to certain POIs for some reason. I was only able to FT to "anomoly" (do you even proof read Todd), the rest can only be travelled to from the map after I visit them, but still not from within the ship
>>563275530what's going on with all those feynman outposts? one of the high end components being made with just in system transports?
>>563293286yeah, microsecond regulatorseverything coming from in-system
any mods that make weapon hits more realistic?and wheres the blood
>>563288564Pete Hines is one of the main reasons why people hate Bethesda, because he kept trying to fight with fans.
>>563294169Fallout "fans" deserve every derision they get.
here is my second iteration of the Bucephalus, i think the size restrictions are way too small for the new parts. i think i will make my third iteration once i get enough money for the falkland systems mod.
>>563294169The fallout autists deserved it for asking a marketing goon about the writing. He's technically not even in the same company.
Sarah Morgan is the best wife because i can do whatever i want, be really disrespectful to her about it and then tell her it's the artifact making her see things and she continues to love me anyways.
>>563295541What new parts? I don’t see anything new here.
