buglord posted:Wait I forgot to ask the most important question since it was easily one of my favorite features of FO4/76 Yes. Both Base Building and Ship building. Inverness posted:I think they just worded it weirdly. They mention tiles because their map system in several past games is based on tiles (called cells in the game) that are arranged together in a grid to form the world. This is a decent approximation of the info we have been given. It's worth adding that where things are known to differ player to player (or even save file to save file) is the POIs/encounters/details that are generated for any given area of a planet.

I hope you can put NPCs in those bases/ships, kinda like terraria. In fallout 4 it felt a little barren

buglord posted:Wait I forgot to ask the most important question since it was easily one of my favorite features of FO4/76 Also, the fact that your ship is a mobile base makes it much more appealing to me. In previous games I just wanted to place to store valuables and then leave. I was never interested in decorating a place I'd never spend any time in. Base-building on planets is also more appealing because it's more visually interesting and not a burned-out wasteland like in FO4. One thing that doesn't seem to be in the game is space station building though. It seems unlikely that they'd keep that a secret. I also wonder if there is going to be any underwater base building, or even if they have any significant underwater content at all in the game.

Might as well not have any and build robots to run your shop stalls instead.

For the 3 people I could bring in, they’d be like “you…I don’t think I can trust you” and it’s like my dude I built one of the nicest looking places I in the wasteland for you and you’re disrespecting me like this

marktheando posted:There's going to be such a backlash against this game, the hype levels are completely out of control. The starfield reddit is full of people posting their wildest gameplay fantasies, many of these people have never played a bethesda game. A lot of them seem to expect space flight as detailed as Elite Dangerous, creature and planet variation better than No Mans Sky, procgen giving them effectively endless content. They will be furious when expectations meet reality. I remember one post saying they will spend 100 hours just in new Atlantis. lol if anyone expects a new video game to be anything but decidedly mid until proven otherwise

I've seen some marketing, but it does seem to be more targetted and less "blanket spam everywhere on TV and busses" this time round. I assume I'd have seen more if my adblockers were less effective.

i dont know if this is a controvercial take but id be pretty happy if bethesda one day just made an announcement like "you know what? we're not going to have lockpicking minigames in any of our games any more regardless of setting. we are sorry.". they have never ever been fun, its just varying degrees of annoying.

It should just be a perk thing. you get the lock friend perk, locks decide just to open for you. Second tier of the the lock friend perk you convince the locks to attack near by enemies.

marshmallow creep posted:I am glad they gave us the month of August to play BG3 because I have been making so many characters that I haven't even made it to the goblin base in act 1. That druid is never getting rescued at this rate. Is this just a meme? I've heard this like 30 times... The goblin fort is like an hour into the game. None of the classes are good or interesting the first few levels. Just get a few levels and respec later if you want.

Chronojam posted:Honestly do that and have them electronic/alarmed so if you gently caress up then a patrol might come looking. You know, making it summon enemies when you fail a lockpicking attempt would probably be quite an easy mod... I know we know nothing about Starfield modding yet, but they've gotta have a way to detect "player fails lockpicking minigame" and there must be some way to go "send AI to this location"...
