***The Official Starfield Thread*** (As endorsed by TNA)

The other day i stopped at some random planet and was hailed by a ship milling about amongst some asteroids. Said it was a party cruise and invited me aboard. I’m normally averse to getting into strangers vans but, against my better judgment, i boarded.

Turns out it was, indeed, a party cruise - they turned off the gravity and we floated about for a bit then I went on my way. I considered killing them all as it was a crap party but just left them to it.

How do you dock with Star Yards? I have watched several tutorials and apparently if I get close enough a prompt to dock appears, but not for me! I press F to scan and it makes no difference.
Normally just as you described but one ship/station just wouldn't let me dock.

I ended up blowing myself up crashing into it....pilot you are not young Skywalker.
 
Oh yeah, first entering Akila I couldn't help but compare it against my memory of Ratchet & Clank's sandy outpost areas. The distinct difference in colouring and level of detail is quite staggering, and Akila was running at 74fps... Why! :o

Bethesda conditioned its fan base to accept lower visual quality presentations and rather concept parts of gameplay than fully fledged elements.

Plus, is not a lot of competition in this genre.
So after getting to level to this morning and killing the pirate leader - before leaving i decided to walk the 700 mtrs to an "unknown structure". This was mainly due to several reviews I read that said "exploration is rewarded" in Starfield.

This turned out to be an abandoned distribution centre. Only it wasnt abandoned - it was full of level 17 killers.

It took me around 15 mins of strafing and running to finally grind them all down to nothing (as well as using every health pack i had) only to find the only things worht taking on them was some ammo and a few crits - would it have killed Bethesda to at least included on rare or something. Total waste of time..

The XP was rubbish as well.

That's life, so is pretty accurate :))
I think some devs are just better at graphics and optimization. I mean Rockstar got RDR2 to work on an Xbox One. Thats about the equivalent of a 10th gen i3 and a 1060. Somehow, bethesda can't get this to run well on series X or (relatively) on a 4080/4090 and the latest cpus.

I cannot see any reason for how demanding the game is. I think they are perhaps just constrained by engine limitations and need a new one...or simply talent.
It's "well enough" :))
 
rebar gives me a slight boost in fps, maybe about 5-10 but nothing mind blowing like dead space remake boost where it was 25+ fps. Vram dedicated usage has gone up by a gb too!
 
The one I am trying to get in is the Nova Galactic one, it's essential for the story but there is literally no way to get in.

Seems like it works by pressing E, I just rattle the whole keyboard in all honesty.....thats my gaming style.
