This is an insane complaint, but I wish the bank was a little more aggressive with the mortgage. I was kind of hoping the perk would spur me to regularly search for creds and force me to slow down in the beginning a bit so was disappointed to find I could basically ignore it entirely until I had the dosh. Nice house though, I'll get around to decorating at some point.

Velocity Raptor posted:Not sure of your specific setup, but googling the issue, it seems people were encountering this if they had the game installed on an HDD, instead of an SSD. According to the minimum specs for the game, it requires an SSD, and apparently it means it. Tried those two, unfortunately. Always been on an SSD, never had XMP on. Velocity Raptor posted:If neither of those apply to you, or you try them and are still getting crashes, you can dig into the Event Viewer (Win 11) (Win10) and see if you can find the error listed there to help you narrow down how to fix it.

Are we supposed to believe that the core planets like Jemison are actually densely populated (but not implemented). Or is there any attempted explanation as to why homesteaders would set up 30 LY away in Murder Bandit Nebula, instead of just literally building a house on a habitable world in the faction patrolled core colonies.

You can only use 12 energy per item. most of the guns are 3 or 4 energy per gun. If you want more, you have to use a different gun and assign it to the next slot. You unfortunately cannot put the same gun in 2 slots as far as i'm aware.

This is me reading into the setting a bit but I don't think the population density of humanity is that high in the Starfield universe. The game takes place in 2330, people fled Earth in really short order between roughly 2150 and 2200, then there was a big war between the two powers that be and also Va'Ruun tried a little galaxy-wide purge at some point. LIST & other colonists struck me as orgs trying to find some place away from the relatively heavy-handed UC gov and the uncaring Freestar gov. Spacers likewise, very "gently caress you got mine" types staking out their own claims.

My point is that every planet in the game seems to be at about .01% population density . All these settlers with the means for a deep space expedition could have their own continent to themselves on Jemison. What do they get in the Murder Nebula that the government denies them at home? Like you said, there could be a lot of things, but I haven't seen the game make any of them explicit. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the UC government made settlements illegal outside existing cities. But then that could be an interesting plot point! the rabble demands access to the pure clean lands that the government holds in reserve, some are squatting there already, will you work for the gov and kick them out or will you defend them? fast travel here now to learn more, etc.

I get that the UC is at the very least fascist adjacent, but all the game shows is "sucks to live in UC if you're poor". So that doesn't really include colonists since it takes $$ to be able to build a deep space settlement.

So that doesn't really include colonists since it takes $$ to be able to build a deep space settlement. Weirdly enough it may be very easy to build a settlement. Apparently constellation keeps all the blueprints for automated manufacturing in the watches they hand out pipboy style so data storage is apparently not a problem. The big problem would be traveling there, and given how few of the settlements have a ship parked at them that is independent they probably could just hire someone or get groups like LIST to handle it. Of course this could explain why all the settlements are one to five building poo poo shows. Once the settlers get out there they've got no way back outside of a traveler showing up, possibly limited means to construct more buildings, even more limited means to grow their population, and no way to get help if poo poo goes wrong. Not wise to dip into the economy any further than that though since it's blatantly hosed to examine closer. Guns are worth more than high end construction materials and even accounting for the near literally infinite amount of resources space provides you'd think that resources would be worth more. Ditto for thinking about how the population works. It was probably kept low for ease of design. Hopefully the mods will add in larger settlements and better balancing of currency to address this stuff. Archonex fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Sep 11, 2023 |

The Mantis quest is seriously cool, it's probably one of the highlights of the game so far for me (level 11 so far). I could swear the cave music had some stings that reminded me of the Batman themes. And naturally when I go to the mannequin and take the Mantis armor, Sarah immediately tells me to stop hauling all that junk around.... drat it woman, as soon as I get another companion, you're goin' back to the Lodge I'm still struggling a bit with the whole ship upgrading thing - do I need to go to a certain planet to get certain modules to appear on the upgrade list? Is there a good option for a module that would include the research/crafting stations? My ship's cargo hold is getting filled with all kinds of "can be used for crafting" doohickeys. Is it safe to sell them and then just look for one if/when I need it?

I think it's entirely plausible the population we see in-game is the entire population & not a fractional representation like Skyrim. In-game we see very sophisticated heavy industry tech and a huge reliance on autonomous workforces. UC space especially is rife with completely automated factories and hydroponics labs.

Has anyone seen a bug where you no longer need your space suit? I noticed my character wasn't putting on their helmet when in hazardous environments, and the issue seems to be that I no longer suffer elemental damage? I don't think this is related to any mods, but it does seem to persist after restarting. A shame, I didn't notice it until I'd started a big Sid quest and I really don't want to reload.

If you've seen places like Strix you'd get why not everyone wants to go live five people deep in a shack on a planet at the rear end end of known space. A good quarter of the habitable planets that also have enough resources to build a settlement on them either have apex predators that can tank a magazine's worth of assault rifle fire, are radioactive freezing nightmares, don't have the right magnetosphere for human habitation long term, possibly literally have heavy metal water or something awful like that, or are just generally deeply unpleasant to spend time in. If you've ever seen the civilian colonists at a civilian outpost encounter the hostile wild life you also get a sense of this. They freak the gently caress out and start screaming at the top of their lungs for help, even if it's a giant slug the size of their foot that can move at maybe .00001 mph and be walked ahead of. No, they don't have weaponry. In the event that it's some place like Strix in one of the hosed up swarm predator biomes they just get eaten alive before you can get to them to save them.

Imagine my disappointment when I see a starborn ship just chilling in the distance when I'm at my one pathetic outpost, run over to steal it but it's inaccessible. There were a few starborn that had walked off in the distance and I trailed them for a bit to see if they were doing anything cool. They were not. What do you have to do to assign people to your outposts? I want to banish a couple people I don't like to one.
