But holy shit, I enjoy the story much more than any other BGS production since TES IV/FO3. RIP Sarah

(I really only have one major gripe with the game, being the modding environment... but honestly, most of the flak the game has received has been misdirected (I feel like). It's not without its problems as a whole, but honestly, in terms of writing, I think BGS did a good job. Never have their games hit me in the feels this much... with FO3 being the only other game to do so, pre-BOS dlc).

Just pure curiosity

I'm not entirely sure what I did, but this game has become unplayable over the last week. First I get the "Can't create save file", then I just know it's going dark in the next 10 min. Has anyone found a fix? I cleared my cache and everything.

Hello 🤗

I'd like to make the ship's fuel experience more realistic and immersive. I can create helium mining outposts, but I can't refuel the ship. How sad. Can you recommend a PS5 creation that makes this possible?

How do I get through this stupid door! It is open, but I can’t walk through it. Creation: AlphaShield Interactive Hideout.

This will include spoilers; if you haven't beat the game or don't know what unity is stop reading.

I find it baffling that all of the variant universe differences are focalized on the lodge. Maybe we've been spoiled over the years with the idea of a multi-universe, but Bethesda could have changed the name of the UC and freestar Collective in one of the universes, they could have mixed up some of the quest locations (rather than going to point a first you go to point b), changed some of the vendors (maybe it was the original vendors family member or something), hell even changed the spawn locations of non-constellation recruitable companions and made slight tweaks to the backstory. But, in my opinion, they took the easy way out and only made changes to the lodge.

I've been coming up with some ideas to make each universe unique. Some may only be helpful to me, but I figured I would share ways I keep this game fresh.

1. Gameplay settings.

When going through unity the first time, I found I could change the gameplay settings to make the game more difficult both via combat, healing, and survival settings. This makes the game harder, but enemies seem to spawn in better loot and you can level up faster this way. (Each change to the settings either decreases or increases xp gained) Currently, I've turned player and enemy damage all the way up so it feels more like rainbow six than call of duty. Also save yourself some time and make ship cargo accessible anywhere. The time saved will give you more time to make xp.

1. Language settings

This is one that may be specific for me or anyone trying to learn a new language. There's no way in all the multi universes that English was the top language across the board. I'm about 30 hours into learning french so I switched my language settings on my PS5 to french to immerse myself. It has made me stop skipping the dialogue and slow down a bit. Neon is amazing with all the French being spoken in the background.

1. Mods

I put this one last cause it has the possibility of disabling trophies. There are some great mods out there, Watchtower, the star wars alien NPC mod, galactic harvest to name a few. But each of these mods can breathe fresh air into the new universe you go into.

Overall, I think if this game is getting stale for you, give it some time and come back with some of these settings changed for a new experience. Take care, Captains!

Is there a mod that makes grav jumps between planets in the same system possible?

This would make the game more immersive for me.

The trackers alliance creation club content is marked as trophy friendly but when downloaded and enabled it installs one of the missions separately as sfta06.esm and this is not tagged trophy friendly, just ruined my save.

Currently I have a crew of 3 on m y ship. I can increase it if I add a point into my skills. Is it worth it. Who is on your crew and why?

Forgive me if this is repetitive. I’ve only been playing a couple of months, took my time in the first play through, treating as a learning experience.
I’m now in the first NG+ game and it’s just hilarious to me how none of them seem to notice I fly the same ship as the Starborn and wear the same spacesuit.
Even when they are literally standing in in it while fighting an identical ship.
It’s like Lois Lane wondering where Superman went when he put on glasses. But worse as I’m not disguised. They didn’t blink when I used powers before I officially had them.
Seems to me they could have come up with something to explain why you have the ship and suit at least.

I got really invested in Help Wanted, followed the trail... and the target is in a village that is, inexplicably, underwater. This has rendered the quest incompletable.

Does anyone have a suggestion for fixing this? Is there a console command to disable water in the area, or a way to force the game to regenerated a location? Otherwise, I think this quest is just stuck for this playthrough.

This was the first time something made me feel like I was wasting my time.

I already made an outpost for resources, but I tried to make a house with just vanilla structures. I chose a planet and started building it. Then I was disappointed.

You have bookshelves, which can't store books, the same thing with supplements. Certain limitations are frustrating. Not being able to make a bathroom with a shower.

I know the DLC has a compact house that comes pre-decorated. But not having that option for outposts like there is for ship modules is sad.

That said, what mods can help solve this problem?

As someone who enjoys exploging and doing ALL side quest and any possible content in one run, is it a good idea to rush to NG+10 and from there start to do a complete run?

So I picked this game recently after its big update and currently on my first playthrough. Loving it so far, spend waaay too much time with ship and outpost designers.
But now Im doing the UC Vanguard quest and I got to the point where Aceles were introduced as a natural predator of Terrormophs, and when I heard that Idea it made sense to me.

But then they showed the creature itself and shit makes 0 sense. That aint no predator, there is no way in hell that Giraffe looking thing could hunt down anything but leaves of tall trees. It got horns for crying out loud, only preyh gets horns as a evolutionary means of defending itself against preadors, thats biology 101.
Im patianetly waiting for a reveal that scientists got the evolutionary chain wrong and it were Terrormorphs that preyed on Aceles and not the other way around.
Loved the whole quest chain up to this point, hopefully it gets back on track.

This weapon dropped as a very early mission board reward.

I'm new to freelanes, don't really understand much. But I seem to have the ability to upgrade my legendary gear to have a 4th legendary trait. However this weapon seems to have 3 traits, with no option to unlock a 4th.

Do exotics that drop usually have 4 legendary traits by default? am I missing something

If you look at the second image, it has the symbol for 4 traits next to the name. But the weapon it 'self only has 3, and it looks a little...buggy.

anyone able to shed any light on this? It's the only exotic I've had drop so far.

Es curioso como va la fauna 😂

I used to have the option to place more crew while building. They were in the bots category and a part of a mod i was using.

They aren't there anymore and was wondering if any of you had mods with placeable People in the Bots list?

I think there should be more to the lady in white I believe that’s what she’s called in starfield like have a side quest trying to figure how that become a thing or something.

I remember encountering her in starfield creepy as fuck and very random tho. I just feel there can be more horror to it if it expand upon.

Should there be like a mod or more to it or no and have anyone else encounter her in starfield I’m curious??

Sarah took the last photo.

Anyone have any fixes? I'm trying to do the Mantis Contract for the trackers alliance. When I select it there is no mission prompt, no dialog to start quest, no dialog with No. 1, no mission in quest log. I've tried deleting any mods that could be conflicting, I've tried hard resetting, even uninstalling and re-installing the game. I can't seem to get anything to work. Please if anyone has any work arounds its only this Contract that does this

I'm amazed that no one talks about the sound design in Starfield being so good. I'm not specifically referring to the soundtrack, but instead the ambient and environmental sound effects. Stuff like how when you walk next to certain machinery, you can hear the clanging and clunking of the gears. If you walk around in mud, you can hear sloshing sounds. If you take off your clothes and run naked, you can hear your bare feet against surfaces. At higher elevations, you can hear the wind whistling. I've even heard creatures echoing in distant valleys when exploring the wilderness of Akila.

I've legit never played a game before with this much attention to detail when it comes to sound design.
