Starfield Developer Update - Better Than I Expected... 

I started a new playthru at max difficulty (around 60% Xp bonus) and it does make you think twice before leaving your ship, resting, and crafting. Mistakes are punished so I actually enjoy planning out my skill tree and have to think more what I want next. It's overall better but won't get my complete approval until I see the planets with more varied sizes and maps of caves, bases, etc. to add more content & make exploring with vehicles worth it in the expansion.

I just start new game plus. I am looking forward to the update. I can take advantage of 60 fps mode because have 120 hz TV. This game turned out to be a lot more fun than what the reviewers are saying.

Love your videos and am eagerly waiting for the update. I've been doing the Unity marathon lately (get artifacts and upgrade powers)

Does the cargo access distance allow you to transfer and dump all materials into storage containers, like in the Lodge) without taking multiple trips or just one exceptionally slow one between the ship?

So excited to grab a series X and play, the only thing stopping me was the 30fps (yes im one of those guys) appreciate you calling that out too! Shoulda been in the game from start. Can’t wait to live out my Star Wars fantasy in this game lol solid video

I am having a great time with the game and I love the new changes. Everyone has their own approach to the game. I am enjoying mine. The updates just make it better. This just happened. I was in my ship, about to head to my resource collection outpost to upgrade some spacesuits, and I am attacked by pirates. I destroy two of them and board the last one. I don't want the ship, but I do take weapons, money, and contraband. But now that I have the contraband, I can't go to my resource outpost on Jemison, outside New Atlantis. So I go to one of my manufacturing outposts where I hoard contraband. I am on the ship platform after dumping my contraband and I glance over at a nearby hilltop mesa and see a ship. Is that an Ecliptic Claymore III? Yes it is. And when I look at the map, I can see two other nearby ships, but I can tell the Claymore is the better choice. I've been wanting one anyway because I want to modify it. The 3D map also lets me see what the terrain is actually like that I will be crossing. So I get there and nab the ship. For some odd reason (bug?) it's empty. So I just take it. But once in orbit I realize that I did not walk about to search for any contraband, so I get out my seat. And that's when more Ecliptic ships jump in and start attacking me. Makes sense, I just stole one of their ships. I jump back into my seat and take care of them. Afterwards, I just land back at the manufacturing outpost and change back to my first ship and now I am about to fly back to my resource outpost to continue what I had planned to do in the first place, but now I have a ship I had been wanting anyway and an unplanned adventure. This is what I expect from a Bethesda game. You are going about your business and this happens. So you respond to that and it makes you decide to do something else, but you notice this on the way, so you change to do that thing, and then this other thing happens. We need more opportunities for these kind of emergent series of events.

Don't need a larger carry capacity and -8xp if you change the settings to access your ship inventory then just transfer everything to your ship and then change the settings back. Before the update you could only access your ships inventory within a certain radius (distance) of it.

to be clear with the new map, it's only showing a certain amount of tiles/ grids for the are you've landed. if you place a marker near the edge and head towards it, more map will load and the ones behind you will unload. might be tied to the ini setting ugrids which controls how many grids to load around you. perhaps it's view distance. idk. hopefully modders will either add a fog effect to hide the harsh edges of the loaded map or maybe bethesda will.

I haven't played since the first 2 weeks of release but this difficulty change is exactly what i wanted now i can have a ton of carry space and have vendors a ton of credits

I think I may understand the ship cargo access means on here 3:00 I realized not to long ago that I can not just access my ships cargo from outside of the ship, but can transfer cargo. Example. You're at Jemison Mercantile. You buy tons of resources. You can store that in your ships cargo right from standing in the store. I believe the furthest is 220m away from your ship. Thanks for sharing your video.

Okay building on your ship decorating it is the new feature coming with this update your reviewing as for the clear bounty board you could always build one on a base as well as the terminal to get cargo missions and kill Pirates etcetera they could both be built on a base. The new empty modules for ships you can decorate with only certain items that would be placeable in an outpost habitat.

Okay, I searched your content and can’t find it and although it is a different subject, here goes! I have every snow globe (I’m pretty sure) but because NASA ids locked op, the key is locked up and the ECS Constant is no where to be found, I never knew to read the books and now can’t get to them. That being said, I guess the quest is not satisfied and I can’t get the space suit! Any idea if a fix is coming for this or is there something I have to actually do with the globes - Thanks

Hope they will do something about the loading screens and give us more travel in space options. Upgrade the outposts

It’s not like the land vehicles are gonna matter because when you land on a planet, the map isn’t that big so where are you going with that land vehicle?

They just need to make traveling between areas more immersive, Maybe a warp tunnel load screen. More survival elements and more random encounters etc right now Elite Dangerous is way more feature complete.

The new map makes the tiles look very small, but I found out, what you see is not the whole tile at all, the whole map will move according to your position on it, it goes much further...

What's good about the new system is you can toggle the increased carry capacity as needed to avoid the exp penalty ;)

He applauds the new updates and then gives snide remarks 1 when it comes to bringing up the new game maps you only need to press two Keys that’s it! And 2 yes it took 8 months after release for the new map system to be integrated but as you said and I agree it is and does seem like one of the best looking systems we’ve seen so then you need to think it would of took a lot of trial and error to get these systems working as intended we don’t know what it’s like as we are just regular gamers not developers Bethesda must be fed up by now with the fans always being shitted on they can’t do right or wrong everything they do never just gets positives always comes with back seat criticism without substance

Thanks for the great content as always! I hope the update is good as it is slated to be - it has not yet made it to my xBox. The thing is, I was so deep into Fallout 4 because of all it had to offer with no copy and paste sites, multiple characters, quests, and things happening around every corner on one small destroyed planet whereas all the planets, solar systems and galaxy seem to be lacking. I was into Fallout 4 for so long I did not realize my xBox Gold was expired for a year and a half. I was getting bored with Starfield big time and only played once a week or so! I mean think about it, almost (not all but almost) everyone's complaint and video on RU-vid was about not being able to "steal ships" (one activity) - it appeared that was all people looked forward to - Fallout had sssoooo much more behind every rock, corner and inside buildings. Here's hoping the new Starfield update provides the needed for me. In any case, that's my rant but keep up the GREAT WORK and CONTENT! I'll be looking for more. Have a good one!

I don’t know if I wanna come back until the expansion comes out. I haven’t played since I finished it at launch

All of this should have been in the game already… man these companies simply just half assing things now. I’m just glad they finally added some good things.

Starfield needs a DLC named (The Creator) sending you on a journey to the creator jumping from omniverse to omniverse fighting different versions of what the “Starborn” was ment to be with different types of multiverse’s and different kinds of “Unity’s” while allowing you to become something like the emissary and build a following of “starborn” and or bring along your crew through the unity or whatever else they create it to be like the unity but for the omniverse’s also letting you create a fleet that follows you around would be cool too.

It really annoys me that every update for starfield is just "Oh we put in stuff that should have been in day one." every one of them... If they game was this undercooked maybe they should have waited a little longer to get it done.

The surface maps are great, but I hate how they really showcase how incredibly tiny these supposedly large cities are....

5 million active players a month is good for a single player. Of course you won't see concurrent ones though. Not a live service game.

Anyone know when Starfield comes out of early access?

I did download it again but I have been enjoying fallout 76 so idk when I’ll get around to starfield

Don’t need a dlc or anything pls jus fix the bugs Bethesda. when I can’t do a mission because of a bug that means I can’t beat the game entirely and that is beyond frustrating

Hope they fix stealth

Are you on PC or Xbox? Never mind I saw you mouse moving

I was so happy about the update it was running great, but today it's trying to melt my CPU and my fps is garbage, I was running around 100fps and around 80 in the cities now it's dropping below 40. So as much as I love the game, I can't play if it's going to melt my CPU.

Love the game but I did all the quest lines and people really thought Bethesda would make a perfect fully functional game 😂

It's a VRR increase not actually fps.

Yeah, until xbox close this down or Cut the tram behind it when it Will lunch after not meeting sales exportations on a Platform where Games are free... MS are was ans still be nuts

Does this game have mods on console??

I think it is quirky that the combat choices wont negatively impact your XP but convenience features will. I love the game but that feels kind of petty on their part, like they are irritated people don't agree with their broke traders philosophy.

This game made me even more bored with life/suicidal than I already was thanks Todd 😂😂😂

I dont understand the hate behind this game considering Fallout 4 is more boring and empty but for some fucking reason everyone loves Fallout 4.

Co-Op

I haven’t played in over a month either

I won't buy until they fixed meele.

Untie characters to quests. Make it possible to vaporize any Character in starfield. I got bored of Starfield that I have not played it in over a month.

This map system was totally needed for Neon. Navigating that city SUCKED

Ship modifications are cool but pointless, the immersion breaks soon when you realise how shit everything is

It still sucks

“Cool” update i wouldn’t even say it’s note worthy really. At least it wouldn’t for any other game.

Clickbait garbage.

Careless this game is freaking boring. You only belong in the library.😂😂😂

Clickbait, disliked the video
