Starfield: SPACESHIPS - Everything NEW

[@valorin5762]

Argh... I really, really like the style. Keeping things believable by not making everything clean and sci-fi like, but keeping the recognisable astronaut look we have today. That's really my kind of sci-fi... I love this game already.

Yeah, I will likely make something like a container ship. Lots of cargo but also lots of room for the crew to do activities. However, I will also have a mission runner ship that can deal with combat better and will have spartan living style so the ship can remain maneuverable and not have a lot of mass.

I am so happy this is a single player game. This means Bethesda has been able to ignore all the shenanigans that come with multiplayer games. In my opinion, Elite Dangerous was severely held back because of all the multiplayer nonsense. For example, just look at how Powerplay was never really integrated in the general game. Bethesda seems to be creating the Elite game I always wanted. It would have been great if Starfield had Elite's flight model, though. You can't win 'm all.

Some very accurate observations on the things Frontier didn’t understand about spaceships. Space legs were not about a desire for FPS, they were about making your ship real and personal. This matters on a deep level for this type of game; Star Citizen figured it out and turned it into a successful business model.

[@fistsofsnake5475]

Ship interiors wouldnt work in Ed like in starfield for one big reason. Emptines. In Starfield you have crew so your ship looks like actual living ship.And before anyone write that Frontier can add crew to ships too I want to remind what ED players think about paying the crew

the great thing about Bethesda is no matter what it's like on release there will be mods to make it what you want. Skyrim and Fallout 4 I always turn into nuts survival games where even getting to the quest is basically a quest all by itself. so guaranteed if it's a bit too arcadey there will be mods that turn it into a really spot on space sim.

[@raypalmer5125]

I was really surprised the amount of things you can customize in just the spaceships alone, add to that, base building, weapon modding, deep character customization with backgrounds and traits, traits that you get by exploring different planets, armors etc and I am not even talking about the quests and side-quests.

Thank you Obsidian! This was very interesting to watch. As a long term player of Elite like yourself (over 8,000 hours in 9 years), I've always enjoyed flying the largest ships. I always wanted to explore inside the Cutter and Anaconda but that never came to fruition. Unfortunately, when Odyssey dropped, it totally killed flying large ships as there was a pointless long run across the hangar bays. So in Starfield, I'd love to see how big I can practically make my home covering as many functions as possible. I can't wait to meet the crew on the ships and ground bases as well! I always wanted to meet my pilot in Elite, considering he's been costing me 10% of all my money for so many years despite barely being deployed in a fighter (not to mention SLF's glitching other CMDRs in open, meaning he could only ever be used for PVE but literally nothing else).

I'm wondering whether the damage modeling will apply to your ship. If your ship's systems get damaged or destroyed, will there be gameplay around repairs and maintenance? There probably won't be situations where you walk into your mess hall and find a gaping hole with your crew vented out into space. But having some light scavenging and repair gameplay might help sell the immersion, making do with a limping ship as you search for replacement parts or upgrades.

[@jameshayes2022]

Lol suddenly finding your favourite romance option is floating cold in the void.

That does sound like an abvious addition. If your ship can be damaged, repair ought to be part of the game.

Late to the video but one thing some folks noticed on the ship showcase was a 4th weapon labeled PAR.

Entirely possible there is a 5th weapon type for ships too but that's the only other one we've seen besides BAL, MSL, and LAS.

[@trollsmyth]

Very curious to see how configuration interacts with usage. Will we see cargo holds slung beneath the ship because that makes it easier to roll cargo on-and-off? What module will you want closest to your cockpit so you can get to it easily? I'm very curious to see what sort of design philosophies grow out of this sort of ergonomic design.

[@MrLathor]

I imagine you just sell stuff to a trader and it disappears from the cargo hold. That’s the kind of thing that makes sense for a “space sim” like Star Citizen but not for a Bethesda space RPG. Mods will no doubt add things like that into the game though and that is the way it should be. Locating useful crew stations near the bridge will definitely be beneficial. And of course, the crew will need places to sleep just like in any Bethesda game. So definitely some things to consider.

No private person could sustain such vessel on their own even if they had somehow acquired one (maybe salvaging a derelict from the former battle graveyard).

Is this a dynamic event, can the bugs (or any faction) take territory from others? Or is that just a station that was designed that way, is the universe static? A dynamic/responsive universe could be fun, helping one faction in one gameplay and then helping another in a second gameplay, such as helping the bugs take over the universe. I also find it quite frustrating to see all of these nice things and not be able to play the game! Three months seems like a long wait.

"Depth and detail" for a game with on-rails cutscenes hiding hard loading screens every time you land or take off from a planet? Star Citizen already does far better than that. You can fly over the planet surface and when you want to go to space you just pitch the nose up and accelerate until you leave atmosphere. And Starfield doesn't have servers with 100 players connected. How's that for a response?

@@elixwhitetail lol - no. It's empty calories bruh, just like everything else with SC. As an original kickstarter backer with (embarrassingly) 1500 bucks into the 'tech demo', I've seen and heard ALL of the circular excuses and arguments over 10 years. SC is DOA. Never going to happen; it will be in 'pre-alpha' forever. Hope you get your Pyro one day though!

Looks like the las/bal/msl & eng/shd/grv are the stats of the enemy and you can specifically target these as parts on the enemy ship. That does feel more arcade-like but could still be fun. Either way I'm pretty sure I'm going to enjoy myself with this game.

First, there was the bone transforming into a satellite in 2001: A Space Odyssey. Then, there was the space sandwich transforming into a planet in the Starfield trailer.

Between the character creator and spaceship customization, my RPG OCD will get totally triggered.

[@syyndev2161]

Can we have like crews on the ship? To interact etc And make it like a hub for companions?

[@olivierpelletier9643]

I sincerely hope that the ship's interior wont be static, or too static. Seeing how you can customize the ship with modules and all, I hope it will also reflect the layout inside. Having more than one deck, having to walk the lenght from the back hangar door to the front pilot seat.

[@Slav4o911]

They showed you would be able to display things... I think "your ship" would be just like "your home" in Skyrim, you can do whatever you want inside.... and I'm sure modders would be able to build capital ships, which at some point you can own, maybe not control directly but own.

[@syoung2333]

Im hoping we can command our crew as away teams and pilots. Issuing orders from the Captains chair with manned stations on the bridge. Also, does our character stay in spacesuits constantly?

[@Nazz-b7p]

As someone with 1200 HRS in Elite, I'M BEYOND EXCITED FOR THIS. o7 I hope they or modders implement mega ships like how in Rebel Galaxy we could get carriers.

[@Tiparium_NMF]

I hope the customizability of the ship has fairly broad aesthetics, I have a handful of ships I have sketches of from over a decade ago I'd love to see come to the screen, but they're definitely a little out there in terms of design.

[@charlessmith5465]

One thing I'm not seeing in a lot of the footage so far is wings. Hard to picture most of these flying around in an atmosphere. This makes me think it'll be a _launch directly to space, land directly from space_ mechanic. 🤔 So the ship aestetics may be both broadened and limited by this concept: _you can make a Voltron and launch it into space, but can you make a big X-wing?_
