Starfield: How to Lockpick

[@Blottski]

Here we are gents, all looking for the same help on the first box. Man is this system complicated compared to an Oblivion or Skyrim system.

[@Unknown-rf7cn]

imagine if we will be in real life situation and our life depends on it... no internet no electricity 10% o2

This is the third guide I've watched to understand this system and it was the first one that actually led me to understand how the system works. Excellent job.

Everybody is here after having been faced with the first "Novice Difficulty".:))

Make sure u quick save before u attempt lock picking

Just learned this the hard way lol

[@aaronax726]

Lockpocking in this game is IMPOSSIBLE

[@Rowgue51]

They really need a proper in game explanation for how this works. The very brief introduction to it they give you in game just tells you the mechanics of lining up a set of pins with a set of holes. But it doesn't give you any indication whatsoever of the overall strategy in opening a lock. It just leaves you with the assumption that after each tool is applied another random set of holes will be presented and that it's just dumb luck to guess which sequence you need to use the tools in.

[@nopeeeee135]

The lack of tutorial in this game is absurd

[@englishvoodoo676]

Still have no clue lol

[@michaelvoorhees5978]

You can't align it where a gap will have 2 different ones line up with it

[@WildWeasel109]

Great guide, I've wasted so many digipicks and now understand how it works. Thanks.

[@Zayphar]

The question is: do you really need to crack the expert and master locks? Is there super OP gear behind these doors? Is it neccessary to pick expert and master locks to get special outcomes on quests? If the expert and master locks don't gatekeep things that are absolutely neccessary, then there is no reason to waste so much time and energy on these locks.

[@spicyhummus]

Probably not, but in my experience it has been an alternative option for some quests progression. I’m just glad there’s not an achievement for cracking 50 locks like Fallout and TES games lol

[@Ghvst__]

Thats what im trying to figure out because in Skyrim they had you taking secret paths/rooms/obstacles to open even just Expert chests all for one potion and an ingredient 😭

[@tantrumus7186]

This is the first of several guides that actually makes sense TY. 38K views and 690 likes just shows how lazy people are in this world. Liked.

[@vagkalosynakis]

Well it's at 828 likes and 405 dislikes currently so this video is like 50% rated positive. It also doesn't explain Digipicking.

[@captaincaptain2128]

They gave it a 7 because they were trying to appease Xbox and Sony fans.

[@Hades358]

​@captaincaptain2128 they shouldn't be appeasing anyone but being honest and true. Otherwise, the reviews don't serve its purpose.

Great on screen animations to follow, great explanation and decent time consumption of a video. Thanks (for also not making this like a 10 min vid)

[@carlsteminger4697]

Awesome explanation. Thanks

[@ShounenRoach]

The WORST lockpick in a game if ive ever seen one.

[@norberto6005]

why? caus eit snot easy? :D

[@danwinters1971]

@@norberto6005Jesus, is spelling not easy ?

[@hjifjfkdh2334]

Also, if they circle lights up blue when swapping throwing patterns that means that that will fit into the circle somewhere! Kinda just figured that one out on my own

[@hjifjfkdh2334]

And start with the circles with the most slots. Like the ones with 4 slots if it lights up blue then it will fill it somehow.

[@maxcasebolt7791]

It literally says that on the upgrade tree

[@npcperson2158]

Mousewheel to rotate BTW.

[@Ohohoohhiyo]

It's hard enough to find the damn locks🙄

[@MC-ns8gb]

Why does any game ever change lockpicking from the tried and true method that basically every other rpg has used for decades now, just ends up being unnecessarily complicated and annoying

[@hollenfeuer1]

Pretty sure they are the reason we have those mini games to begin with. I'm happy for the change.

[@Higurashika]

How does auto slot work? This button does nothing.

[@totemtv5116]

Thank you! ❤

[@nyshoefly]

Bottom line, carry 1000000 picks

[@kylenstevens982]

you can click the other pick variations!!!?????????

[@Setsuraful]

Entirely too convoluted, especially at higher difficulties... Here's hoping for an early "skip lock pick mini game" mod. This is a prime example of change for the sake of change.

[@Kunbeeb]

Nah this was pretty intentionally hard on purpose loll

[@Jasondurgen]

What a cry baby

[@Steele233]

It isn’t convoluted at all.

[@rct8884]

Why does it only show less amount of picks than you actually have?

[@snorkosaurus]

Masterlocks are a fking mess cause some of the paterns don't fit at all and you can complete locks and still have some left, they just confuse me and make this a fking pain....

[@whskytngo]

It would be so much easier to get if you used the terms that are literally on the screen. (slot key, start). "lock in" is not a term on the menu. Might make it easier for a lot of people judging from the amount of thumbs down on this video.

[@Christos2255]

The fact they thought that shitty one sentance tutorial would suffice 🙄

[@tivikemajom]

What a shitty idea of a minigame. This takes away the joy of opening boxes. Bethesda surely ran out of testers who could this was an utterly needles and supid waste of time. Breaks immersion to be honest.

[@beady123]

So are all locks solvable with the picks you are given? Are master locks just harder puzzles or do they require higher levels in lock picking?

[@funnygaming2672]

it both, it "harder " and it require that you have this higher level unlock too ..

[@fox9356]

Thanks (Dzięki) :)

The guy who reviewed this game had no business doing so. As he's stated in the past that he has a grudge against Microsofts inquisition of Bethesda

[@ziff_1]

Watched this ... still no clue what's going on. Definitely not great design, and even worse instruction (from Bethesda)

[@Terrapin92]

holy sh@t is this difficult

[@eswade1]

Lol no. You do not solve from the outside in. Maybe on a novice lock. You better plan from the inside out. 1 pick every time.
