STARFIELD DEVS DIDNT WANT YOU TO FIND THIS!

This location is a completely unique, one off location, and CANNOT be found from the star map.
The only way it shows up is when you physically fly to the planet, and considering there are over one thousand planets across a hundred star systems in this game, you can definitely see why not a lot of people have found this place.

Fun Fact: This is a random event location. If you orbit a planet with your scanner open and look around, among other systems and planets, you can sometimes get spots out in space called "Unknown Station." This is one of those. They can spawn all over the place.

[@DrVenture45]

I found it. I don't think the Sonder was a dev "secret", just another location to encourage further exploration.

[@schawty]

Well thanks for the clickbait i guess

[@papaprometheus]

How is it clickbait?

[@iMorphTV]

@@papaprometheus: The title implies that the location is hidden or secret when in reality that is not the case at all: The ellipsis on a planet denote there are points of interest to be explored there.

[@OG_Agrivar]

On the one hand, it's nice to see more upbeat Starfield videos instead of the endless hate train, but on the other hand... it's still just ridiculous click-bait.

[@ir8dudefpv]

Exactly! I love seeing video titles ‘500 hours played - This game is terrible’. Yeah we always play for 500 hours on a terrible game…lolz🤦‍♂️

[@Jessethoth]

@@ir8dudefpv Those are people scraping the bottom of a jar of shit to get their money's worth because they feel ripped off and they're hoping, JUST HOPING maybe updates, DLC or god forbid mods fix it. It's usually also that they want to dump a good amount of time so when they give a review they can say they gave it every possible chance. Sometimes, people WANT to be positive but they just can't lie to themselves. We all know it'll probably be reviewed as a great game 5 years from now after all the jank is fixed.

[@jamesquick5854]

I gather you've never used Bessel 3B as an outpost location.

Yeah, my bessel 3b outpost has much cooler stuff I bet.. I'll just go raid that instead

[@boredpangolin2553]

What’s so interesting about Bessel 3B

[@manicmarauder]

@@boredpangolin2553 It's one of the few places where you can get all the basic base building resources in one spot if you check the biome boundaries. Makes a good 1 stop shop for low level 'legit' xp farming or even light cash during the early game, and costs almost nothing to build since it self supplies. Even in the late game I imported stuff from other systems to that base to make various upgrade stuff. Or at least I did before I gave up and just sold the raw unimproved guns and equipment for a living. Still have a fully kitted out base there with full living accommodations, and even an extra receiving base beside it to import more raw materials and just walk them over to local storage when I need to make something, though it all kind of collects dust now. It's sad the economy and wait time punishes you so hard for legit upgrading weapons and suits before selling them. It does still work though if you're willing to spend the time selling and really want to do it legit.

[@murderraven7770]

Just beause you built an outpost there why would you assume anyone else did? There are literally dozens upon dozens of planets lol

[@ThorsonWiles]

Don't normally go to Bessel? If I set up a base, the first one is almost always in Bessel. III-b also has a 57(ish) UT hour, so you can reset nearly everything by sleeping for 11 hours.

[@JustGeldric]

Was going to post exactly this. I just jumped to Bessel II and without landing, the SONDER is right in front of me. So perhaps the requirement is to land on "any" planet in the Bessel system ??

[@VdrummerStixx777]

Always start there

I always start there. It's the best way to start your playthrough.

Venus is best for it like 100+ hours a day or something

[@tjtheo3584]

​@0-B1 but Venus doesn't have the materials needed to do the infinite crafting that bessel does.

[@CuproHastes]

It's just one of the random encounter locations. There's nothing particularly mysterious or hidden about it.

[@TheChenny73]

This is why you have to survey all the systems, you never know what you’ll find. However, there is definitely not enough unique content per system. Every system should have some unique content to encourage exploration and surveying. I have a feeling it will be that way eventually. The purpose of building this galaxy was to have a large space in which to fill.

[@iwams1]

You have the right idea, my friend.

[@UpperDarbyDetailing]

That was my thought as well. Tons of space for new content, DLC, mods, creation club…

[@JayMysterio7]

I agree

[@mrpopo5097]

@@TheChenny73 all you do is yap dude. None of that is happening and no, starfield does not have more unique content than Skyrim

@@mrpopo5097 yap yap yap, isn’t that what comments are for? I recently discovered something that a didn’t pay attention to before. If you see a ship icon, go there and dock. All these random ship icons have unique things and stories to find. These ships are the equivalent to Skyrims caves. Does Starfield have more content? It’s certainly not less.

[@chriscollins8221]

If people aren't exploring planets when they enter a system, maybe not full survey but at least check out what resources it has then they aren't playing the game properly!!!!

[@pyromethious]

IDK what the other location is, but this is the same map as another star station. Same foes I believe as well. Pretty sure I've come across this one, but I have noticed that quite often if you've never been to a system before (or whatever reset period has passed), then some markers don't show up until you're in the system. I've seen generic and ship markers show up only After I've gone to a system. I think that's simply the dynamic aspect of the game kicking in like it does when you land somewhere.

[@majorhawker4776]

Ty I am like I have been to this station only the names are were just Spacers not Spacer Myth.

[@nemerly_00]

I've found this place a few times. Just can never remember where it's at. BTW, have you found Sonny Di Falco's Island? Another good somewhat hidden location.

[@mel-archivals4773]

My first outpost is always on Bessell IIIB, with a secondary on Bessell III A. I usually also have a third outpost outside the system but can't seem to get that one in the same place every time, yet. What I can tell you though is that Legendary ship encounters do not stay in the same place and will move if you do not engage them when found. I've missed out on the Va'Ruun capitol ship and the Crimson Fleet capitol ship. Both ships are no longer where I originally found them.

[@ArcaneCowboy]

If the dev's didn't want you to find it, it wouldn't be in the game.

[@kimberlystafford3651]

Bessel III-b is where many of us have been countless times as we continue to await the fixes to the Power from Beyond mission - - where the temple never spawns and the map markers never appear and you land at over 1000 spots on each planet and moon in the system hoping for a miracle, but only find hundreds of anomalies. Those of us completely stuck trying to acquire our 13th power have been all over this system (literally) thousands of times. Even playing on "very hard," the loot has never been anything above standard - - some ammo, a subpar weapon or two, and that is about it. The storyline to the Sonder, however, is interesting.

[@graxxor]

By the way, Sonder is a word from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows. It’s a neologism, much like Cromulent in that it was purposefully designed to serve a linguistic purpose rather than having evolved historically. The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is a fascinating book with loads of great “new” words in it.

[@dfoster7001]

If they didn't want you to find it, it wouldn't be in the game.

[@cvdheyden]

This station is much more fun to be played in "extreme" mode. Try it, die it.

[@grifforama]

Hmm. Bessel 3b was my initial planet for my biggest resource outpost.

[@Steve92583]

If you search better in the station you can assist at a strange situation. You can found few notes where the crew writer that the robots did strange things and sometimes hurt people and after you can activated a robot that at the First help you and after try to bypass the control on a PC and when you arrive near it, it give you a choice: go away or stay and die. I Remember that i didn't go away and the robot Attack me, you can image the rest of the story... . But the story Is that the base program of the star space station change and the IA that help people on the station take control of the station and the people that didn't go away died. There Is another situation that i Met near the space and I help that IA because in that case there Is a differenti situation. Starfield have a loooooot of things to find

[@lorgrenbenirus]

As an explorer who scans a lot of planets, I did find this place. Though I can't recall whether the station did not show up before the visit since I specifically travelled to that planet first. According to files found there it did indeed sound like a "machine upraising", though not in a "Terminator" sense, more like "oops I've made an error in the code".

[@the_omg3242]

I've been there just doing random scanning on 2 separate playthroughs. Finding it is just normal gameplay.

[@DocRock1337]

Also, if you save-scum on killing that Spacer Myth (in the first big room), you have real shot at some "God roll" gear and weapons. Cheers!

[@user-ew9cf1fv4l]

They need to really implement a collaboration adventure and i think this game would be top tier.

[@barrymorgan5272]

If the Starfield devs didn't want people to find it, then why include it in the game in the first place?

[@iwams1]

Thats his way of aaying that it's somewhat a bit hidden 😅 I still like this kind of videos about the game, though. Shows people there is much more to the game than meets the eye at first.

[@zullnero]

I found that last september during my first playthrough. I frequently got missions that took me to either bessel or piazzi. the loot is alright but not level 75 alright

[@cojovamanolo6422]

I'm still looking to meet up again with the A.I. ship that I gave it's freedom.

[@TheOblivionContextScreen]

I knew this looked familiar... I had the same "WHOA WHAT IS THIS" moment before summing it up to it being a mission that I didn't have the start for, but its still weird it doesn't show up naturally...

[@richarddavis4954]

There must be more than 1 ,i have been to at lest 2...

[@Jessethoth]

Gotta be honest, I didn't get that whole "natural progression to the right" thing about Starfield because I thought the game might be good when I first played it. I expected the star chart to progress in all directions around from the starting point. Nothing to me was more disappointing and "gamey" than realizing "Da low level planets are to da left and da high level ones are to da right." I really hope DLCs and patches make this more fun. Imagine how stupid I felt after hoarding 80+ tape because I thought I could scrap misc junk into something useful. Shit felt like a step backwards. Weapon mods were pretty annoying too. :/

[@BeardedGuy_Tawhid]

I found that one before there’s a fair few locations that appear like that after scanning and visiting certain planets, moons and systems and not before

[@tejarex]

I think it more likely that the devs wanted low-level players setting up outposts at Bessel 3b to find this, wander in, and get smoked -- like I did ;-(. I don't think there are L90 pirates anywhere else near Alpha C. I came at L100 to clear this out.

When I walk into a room enemies burst into flames. And Starborn warships try to run away when I jump into a system and they realize its me. Yes.

Titles like that of this video only really work within the first few weeks/months of any game's initial 1.0 release (excluding early-access, those games aren't finished yet so aren't relevant). Starfield has been out for long enough that any and all content the devs don't want players to see/witness/use has either been patched out, or hidden in the game's files so that no normal gameplay will ever stumble upon it. Whether it's intentional or not, clickbait titles and thumbnails will only earn you ire from any potential audience. If you don't care in the slightest about pissing off your audience with bad business practices, then obviously there's no need to heed my advice. Misleading video titles are a really bad pet peeve of mine, and I'm certain that I'm not the only one who feels this way about it.
