    For anyone new to bethesda games who wanted to try out starfield hear me out. I’m sure in the reviews you’ve heard them saying “the more you put into this game the more you get out” this is very true. Starfield gives you much more freedom than skyrim or fallout as far as really being who you want to be. I recommend you take the “D&D” approach to creating your character’s background and traits. instead of seeing them as just good/bad perks build a story with some real lore around your character. they’re not just perks they actually change how people will interact with you. I’ve been doing this and I’m having an absolute blast. I’ve done this on Oblivian, skyrim, and fallout. but Starfield by far does this system the best

      @jacobscott1433 9 місяців тому +12

      Or, alternatively, use automatic versions of one or the other. Instead of firing one shot and reloading, they can fire off long bursts on a single charge. I use pulse (automatic) lasers to quickly bring down enemy shields and only have one tick in my laser power grid. Usually that's enough, and if not a missile generally brings the shields down. Then I have tons of power to my regular ballistic cannons for sustained damage output.

    If you are carrying too much stuff, go into the menus and select your ship. Go into ship storage and then select your inventory. Then store the stuff you dont want to carry. I've done this while not on the ship. Plus whenever you go to shops to sell stuff, you can select your ship storage to sell from. So you dont need to carry it to venders.

      Alternatively, if your ships inventory is full you can just drop stuff inside of it and then store it into your inventory when it’s time to build or sell.
      Also if you walk slowly you won’t use oxygen when sprinting.

    If you use your cutter, then level Laser to Level 4, it then comes the most powerful weapon you can own, and you don't bullets. It melts level 30-50 enemies as it burns them and it stacks so basically burns them thus killing them more quickly.

    Technically speaking, you can move at walking speed without losing oxygen. While running or sprinting, you will. If you run low, you can alway walk. The NumLock key comes in handy in these cases. Just point your character in the right direction and auto-walk until your oxygen is replenished.

    I learned the piloting skill points lesson the hard way when I tried to hijack a Spacer ship. I quickly found myself in orbit saying, "Oh crap, I can't pilot this thing. Mistakes were definitely made." Thankfully it was one of the few moments I wasn't over encumbered so I was able to just fast travel back to the Frontier. But it was a pretty scary & hilarious moment. Also I found it Interesting that you haven't found more magazines. I'm only 57 hours in & I've managed to find about a dozen of those things so far. If you're out there picking up every single microscope, book, tablet, and desk decoration you'll definitely come across more skill notes. It's nice that they made a little reward for all us loot goblins instead of just earning slightly more credits by hoarding loot & using all of your crew as pack mules. LOL

    Random Detail (I don't really consider it a tip, but I noticed at some point) whenever you switch to scanner mode on the ground, your Character automatically equips the Cutter, so you don't need to waste a favorite slot for it or manually equip it or anything.

    You might not be able to fast travel when carrying too much. But you can always send stufr back to the ship as long as you are in the same erea.

    Added tips
    1) Take targeting. Not only does it improve ship-to-ship combat, It allows you to target specific systems of an enemy ship (like engines), so you can board a ship and potentially claim it as your own.
    2) Double trigger (both mouse buttons) on the cutter mines twice as fast.
    3) Stealth is a good skill to take 1 level in early…if only for the stealth bar.
    4) It’s ok to hold skill points if you are working towards a goal (like Security 3 or piloting 4)
    5) The Den in the Wolf system doesn’t scan and has a trade authority vendor.

    When looking for planets for outposts, each biome has its own associated ores for extractors. The resources with the rarity markers (diamond to the side, 1, 2, or 3 of them) can be found anywhere on the surface. So look for a spot that has the local ore (or find a biome border) to get maximum resource extraction for a single outpost.

    Tip: I’ve seen a lot of people recommend lock picking as one of the first things to invest in, and it’s a good one to do so you’re not locked out of useful stuff, but it’s also handy to invest in the stuff you either don’t like doing or don’t fit your character. Like my character is far from a scientist so I don’t lean into surveying, but sometimes you have to, and being able to scan things, especially hostile things, from further away than close enough to ride them is very handy for time saving.

    One correction on movement and over encumberance, if you walk but don't push the stick all the way, its possible to do a faster walk while recovering, without stopping. I had 800lbs on me and was still recovering while moving, and took out two elite on very hard, at level 12, while they were lvls 15 & 28. At the mantis room where you meet levy.
    All that to say its manageable if your careful, and dont try to walk as fast as you can. Its better not to be, but if you are, you can still move while recovering.

    BIG TIP: Keep a Hazmat suit and all your injury meds (plus some food) in your captain's locker on the ship. That way, if you're out exploring/mining or whatever and you do have an issue, you can just fast travel back to your ship and take care of it. It saves precious inventory space when you're out and about.

    Just a heads up... you only use oxygen when over encumbered while auto run is on. Auto run is on by default but, on PC, you can hit CAPS Lock when your oxygen is low, and continue walking while it builds back up. It's slow but faster than stopping, intermittently. It was the same on Fallout. What we see as normal speed is actually running (when auto run is on) and walking is slower but doesn't use O2/AP.

Like ur story is different and different things happen and so much more depending on all that. I would watch a 5 or 10 min video on choosing character background and traits.

    Buy the stuff from the Vendor that you want and sell your loot to get the money back. I did this back in Morrowind and later Skyrim, and now in Starfield. Needed resources and components, Digipicks, and Ammo are stuff I buy from the Vendor, then deplete their credits to near 0 by selling my loot.

    As far as the boost pack goes, there’s a secondary mode that will only activate if you bind an alternate key for jump. When you use the alternate jump key, you’ll boost forward instead of up, which makes traversal much better. Not sure how to do it on controller, but if you’re on Steam and you have programmable paddles, you can bind it that way
