Starfield - 9 NEW BIGGEST UPDATES That Completely Change It

[@captain4318]

These are the kind of updates the game needs, hope there are a couple more in the pipeline. I'll wait until Shattered Space before I start playing again.

[@louisbrown3793]

Excited to give starfield another go when this releases

[@keithprice1950]

It bothers me that so many gamers now just accept this trend of full price games being released unfinished and then praising developers for slowly patching/updating and fixing the game.

[@ledumpsterfire6474]

Agreed. I'll give a pass to devs like HelloGames because they were a tiny indie studio that got thrust into a world they weren't at all prepared for. But Bethesda? They're one of the biggest AAA game development and publishing companies, on top of being owned by one of the biggest tech companies in the world. They flat ass do not have any excuse for this shit.

[@ledumpsterfire6474]

And they didn't even fix the worst thing about the game: it's a fucking loading screen simulator. It's so bad I'm surprised you can open and close your inventory without a loading screen. Reminds me of being back in the Morrowind days.. 20 years ago.

[@Marconyo]

It´s really a shame that the feature of patching a game once was just tweaking it and a little bit of fixing a game and was seen as an advantage and now it is just exploited (a lot).

[@marijuanaknowsomething6743]

I think it's more so investors and whatnot wanting the product out now rather than later. I'm not in the business so idk for sure. I also think the people praising the devs are just happy they're able to enjoy their game. I mean, just look at how they turned cyberpunk around. Bethesda needs to do an overhaul similar to what CDPR did. I know we're certainly not okay with this though. If you have a petition to make it a law to make sure the game is absolutely finished before releasing it I'll gladly sign it, man. Haha Take care.

[@nuttyair4643]

i logged 180hrs within the first 6 weeks of it coming out. new game+10, level 80.. all the good stuff. then encountered a game breaking bug and lost everything. It's been very hard to get back into the game since. Very glad to see some nice updates finally coming through. Certainly getting closer to the point of being worth trying it again

[@perryeastep5675]

You're good. No need to come back after 180 hours. Lol!

[@Mrchair905]

It’s popular to hate on Starfield but I’ve put in near a hundred hours and I really like it, the recent update video give me hope and I really think it’ll be even better by the time the Shattered Space dlc comes out. For me it’s like a solid 7/10, I don’t think it’s amazing but I have a pretty good time with it.

[@JT-zy2ft]

Completely agree with. Bethesda went for quantity over quality with the exploration and it really hurt the experience. That and all the damn loading screens. BG3 also really elevated the standards for rpg’s and to some extent cyberpunk and Bethesda needs to take note.

[@Zuurkool1]

I am always so curious about opinions like these, how is it you can play 100 hours and give something a 7? I'm not disagreeing with the score. I think i'd give it a 7 too, judging by how it was at launch. And as a result I couldn't keep playing after 20ish hours, even though I have a 1000 hours with Skyrim and Fallout 4 combined. Not hating, just trying to understand.

[@Jerbear889]

@@JT-zy2ft what do you play the game on that loading screens are THAT much of an issue. On pc Loading screens for me are barely even noticable in the Bethesda game sense. like Sub 3 seconds or less

[@JT-zy2ft]

@@Jerbear889 Xbox series x but coming from a game like cyberpunk where you can do and interact with pretty much everything without a loading screen. Same with BG 3. It’s just with how starfield is setup you’re seeing a lot of loading screens for everything you do.

[@Jerbear889]

@@JT-zy2ft Cyberpunk is also one City that is pretty small in KM squared, and BG3 is a top down RPG with little to no Physics engines. Great game but not as much depth as a BGS game, gameplay wise. Storychoices sure.

[@mattmanley7118]

[@WaynesWorldUnlimited]

[@Kelly-f7r]

Iv done over 250 temples maxed all the powers to 10 and im still stoked for the update , got everything ready for my last jump , fingers crossed ita a good galaxy 😊

[@Achromania]

I'm so excited ngl. Finally an update with some actual meat. And I know the game is not everyone's favorite and I respect that but I believe it has potential. Many games launched in less than ideal states but managed to turn things around, like Destiny, No Man's Sky, Cyberpunk etc. I'm giving it this year. If by the end of 2024 the game hasn't made any signifigant improvments then I'll likely move on. Until then tho I'll be intrepidly sailing the blackest sea.

[@TheGameReelHub]

I might revisit it but i've already played the main questline, which I enjoyed. I understand why others don't like it, the emptyness of procedural planets is definitely a sore point. Side quests are great though, expect nothing less from Bethesda.

[@TheParagonIsDead]

DLC and car/buggy will be out months before then.

[@JT-zy2ft]

The vehicle addition makes a lot of sense but it still doesn’t change the fact that there’s nothing really worth exploring on the planets. Choosing quantity over quality was a big mistake.

[@TheParagonIsDead]

@@JT-zy2ft yes, but they are literally working on that as we speak.

[@Achromania]

​@@JT-zy2ft Well I think they kind of painted themselves into a corner with the scale they were going for. They wanted to make a game abt space exploration so inherently there had to be a lot of planets/systems etc, one could argue they went a little overboard, so it would be nearly impossible to handcraft every single one of theos spaces. So I understood some procedural generation would be necessary. Where I agree with you and where I think Bethesda really missed the mark was not including more handcrafted "unique" spaces/experiences sprinkled here and there for you to stumble upon amongst all the procedurally generated content. Like stumbling onto secret room within a compound you may have cleared a dozen times before but this time there's a chance to have something unusual happen, these could have been used for further exposition abt the verse its lore or its factions. You know like a diamond in the rough that makes slogging through all the copy/pasta procedural generation feel in some way more worthwhile.

[@ninjachannel007]

OMG, I played this game for 500 hours at lauch and made it all the way to NG7 before I just got tired of the navigation and loading screen annoyances. I am coming home, Sarah. I left her at a base called Dauntless on Eta Casseopia that was right near her ship of the same name for the past 8 months. Andreja and Sam are there, too, so don't worry. Stopping hitting on me and you can come there too, Barrett.

So we still don't get ship dismantling? I don't understand why they continue to leave out this important feature, and who made the choice not to include it from the beginning. The whole piracy mechanic is so much fun, one of the most amazing parts of the game in my opinion, but then you're left with ships that are mostly worthless. I want to collect good parts and put them on my main ship. I mean the game literally has a skill called "Starship Design" but doesn't let me actually propelry tinker with my ship.

[@MisterH1992]

This was the last game I bought full price. I had fun but the game was not worth the price it was set to. I hate people who keep defending thus to make themselves feel better about feeling ripped off. It's okay to be pissed off. As consumers, we are signing Bethesda's paycheck.

[@RellshouldBsleep]

Bro, this might come as a complete shocker but people have different opinions. I never thought the game was bad I like the combat I like the space fighting I like building ships at no point did I want to be able to land my ship that shit seems cool for five minutes and then tedious so that gripe was never a problem for me. I always go straight to my map and fast travel. My biggest gripe was that I was always over encumbered, and had to huff it back to my ship idk that’s just me

[@Xiatter]

They could have just left it as-is and never tried to improve it. Would you like that better?

[@DarkRictor]

Allow us to choose where the doors & ladders go in our ships! I don't care about loading screens, maps, or FPS! The main quest is just an annoying faction quest that we are forced to start! There should have been about six different main quests for different character arcs for the player to choose between! Two hero, two villain, and two neutral storylines for us to choose! Stop making games with narrow & shallow storylines!

[@Sabre_Wulf1]

Well, they don't change the game do they... they should have been in day 1. These are not game changers at all. It might change how you navigate a map, and your not going to care about a camera angle when talking to npc, after 5 minutes. This also must be one of the rare occasions 60fps wont help it, because the issues a fundemental issues with the base game. It just makes a boring tedious game, a boring and tedious game in 60fps. I have had over 60fps on my pc since the release, and no, thats not the issue with the game. And no... im not a free loading xbox gamepass moaning, i paid for the £99 premium version on steam. I have 15.3 hours on record and stopped, because its terrible. I actually booted up fallout 76 to see how bad that was...and stayed n played for just over 200 hours, so for me, starfield is a dud. But it might be better...in 5 years ? Like 76 took to get to being good ? No idea, but with only 5k starfield players daily on steam whom have all probably installed lots of mods. Im sorry but i did not pay £99 ($125) to have to rely on a modding community desperately trying to save the game. I expect a game to be bloody complete on purchase thank you very much bethesda. Im not holding out its enough to support it. Skyrim has a solid 20 to 30k daily still since 2016. In fact morrowind from 2002 released game still has 500 daily players... Shame, as i am super old, and been playing bethesda since daggerfall. (And was 23 yrs old when even that dropped in 96').

[@comandantegorrion7271]

These sound like good changes, but unfortunately, I don’t think that there is any amount of changes that can feasibly be made that could potentially save the game. Because the problem is things like the dialogue and the story and the voice acting and inherent problems with the engine.

[@Mrchair905]
