Starfield Gameplay Revealed For First Time At Xbox Showcase

would like i ask why any comment i use the word sony or salt in is getting removed. didnt understand that was classed as bad behaviour. be interesting to see if gamespots moderators kept the same energy with the other similar comments on playstation exclusive articles.

This was very underwhelming. It looks like Fallout 4 x No Man's Sky, while completely lacking the charm of Fallout. Hopefully the role-playing is stronger than their last few games, otherwise this seems like a total snoozefest.

Why are you using first person shooting in fighting phase?

We 3D dizzy guys can not survive any FPS scenes.

Pass

Yes, it's the year 2330 and we're still using guns from a few centuries ago. Cause there'll never be anything better. One can only wonder what goes through the developers' heads when they decide to make a scifi game set in the distant future. And then choose to put in outdated tech that would in no way be around anymore by that time. Like the ships in Elite Dangerous where you have to do everything manually as if you were flying a WW2 plane.

Man gamers these days are whiny. People judging the gunplay , before knowing how it actually handles or how the perks /stats affect it. People judging the character models of a game with 1000 planets. People judging the 1000 planet before landing on one. I need that ban ability across platforms Phil Spencer was talking about, but I need it for Twitter and Forums.

It just works

You know it's reliable information when it comes from Todd Howard...

At first I thought the gameplay footage felt stiff, but I think movement is based on your build as some scenes were faster then another. I like that menu pauses gameplay like Skyrim/Fallout games. And the game runs at a solid 60FPS/4k on console, higher on PC. The sparse UI is welcome, and lighting looked good. I could tell by the lighting on youtube that this game has HDR content, even though it was not on. And it does have a nice art style.

The gameplay trailer was nice. I hope the story and enemies are just as good. I do worry that any seconds of a hundred millions of dollars of a game -- is spent on lock picking mechanic.

It truly looks like a Bethesda game. Another title for the modding community to fix.

Half Life 2 seems on par with this - even the Antlions.... but HL2 was released decades ago.... at least they had the gravity gun :)

Gameplay looks like male ass. AI as dumb as ever (1998 HL:1 Marines act smarter). Oh yeah of course, you think I'm pulling this right out of my ass, but nope, search for The AI of Half-Life on YT and see how small squads and fireteams actually flank you, outsmart you, use tactics, and the reason you win is because they got no clue you're using a HEV suit.

4:32 Enemy sees you, turns around, and says "Hey, there you are!" while doing nothing, the other dude next to him thinks that it is easier to draw a knife and run towards you instead of just aiming and firing...

5:30 heavily wounded guy climbs on top of a crate going full expose mode instead of going for cover, lol dafuq

5:35 Enemy instead of staying in cover, slow jogs to a starship that is far away while being in the complete open, back towards you although you just killed his bro like 10m next to him. Sigh....

11:25 As for space combat realism, another sigh.... Positron Lance beams zipping past you as it would be an intro-atmospheric bullet, btw Bethesda, Laserbeams make no noise because we’re talking about wavelengths here lol.

11:29 Love the differential pressure shockwave effect as the enemy space ship passes by you at close range, I mean, would be amazing if there was an atmosphere in space.

And 300 years into the future, and we resort to close-range starship knife-fight combat instead of letting missiles doing their work from long-range where a mix of better PD-weapons and better missiles (and more quantity) would decide who wins and who doesn't.

Oh well, I guess it is asking for too much for some good AI these days...Also, where's the V.A.T.S. ? Because the shooting mechanics look mediocre at best, I hope there's more in there to make this more fun, because the shooting mechanics and dumb enemy AI won't do it.

Still going to play this tho, since it's on Gamepass, ha

So 300 years from now combat will be almost identical? What did war look like in 1720? I think they should have done more with the on-foot combat to make it feel more sci-fi. This is too standard.

Worries: Combat engine, Framerate, procedurally generated (potentially) empty planets.

Hypes: The rest of the game!

But please, sort the combat and framerate

hopefully all the building pieces snap together in this.

Shooting and stuff looks a little iffy but that ship customization alone almost has me sold. Was honestly hoping for something smaller and more focused than this, though. Feel like it'll run the risk of seeming same-y and empty like No Mans Sky when it first released as opposed to them just doing like two dozen handcrafted worlds that you can explore. Sucks I don't have an Xbox, though, as this is something I'd like to play on console.

Looks pretty decent from what we saw. Though after Fallout 76 there's no way I'm pre-ordering this or even buying it day one without reading through the reviews first.

Starfield looks amazing to me.
At beginning of the gameplay i worried a bit since they shown that typical Fallout shooting but i was glad then to see the crafting, spaceships and battles, building spaceships,space travel and bases building.
And the soundtrack gave me the perfect spaceopera-vibe.

The only thing that i couldnt oversee...the eyes of some of the NPCs wasnt placed right

The gameplay looks AMAZING you can explore all the planets!!! did Bethesda achieve what star Citizen has failed to achieve, Bethesda is very good at FPS/RPG games but the graphics look outdated not after the amazing Unreal Engine 5 demo, sorry Bethesda Still that is an Amazing game and definitely gonna be the game of the Year

For me the main take away is the confirmation of the scope of the game. Space travel and visiting thousands of other planets.

Keep in mind. This is a clear vertical slice of the game. WIP. It’s still a RPG and that won’t change.

I agree that the weapons shown aren’t very futuristic but given their modality and the typical scope of weapons available in Bethesda games I think there will be something for everyone. And if not someone will create it. :)

The characters are a step forward from previous games with clear improvements but definitively not the best in the industry. It’s close to Cyberpunk 2077 level but glassy eyes and shiny hair still show up. I would like to see a bit more physics in the hair in this generation but we’ll see the end result when it comes out. Still improvements are good enough for this type of game.

Combat really can’t be evaluated in this vertical slice. Ground combat seems to follow the same basic principles as any RPG FPS so we’ll have to wait and see.

Space combat also to be seen but seems to have a “The Expanse” kind of combat feel. Very “physical” with big explosions, debris and rocket propelled ships.

The key take away for me is that this will likely be the AAA space exploration RPG many wanted. The Outer Worlds on steroids in many aspects.

- Base building

- Ship building

- Space combat and exploration

- Ground combat and exploration

- And above all full mod support.

Starfield won’t have multiplayer. That addition would be very interesting but given the scope of the project I imagine that’s something they’ll look into in the future for a sequel or expansion but not a priority right now.

So no. This is not Star Citizen, NMS or ED killer. (although it probably comes close in some aspects;) )

These things could set Starfield apart.

Apparently full seamless transition from interiors to exteriors. From ground to space. A big step up in this hardware generation that opens some gameplay possibilities.

Confirmed full Mod support in a space sim RPG like Starfield. There is nothing like it right now.

On top of all the incredible things people did with mod tools in previous games, now they’ll have access to hundreds of planets, they’ll likely be able to mod space ships, mod space combat, create space environments, perhaps even build Tamriel on some planet.

But above all most likely great quest design coupled with great places to visit. This is something Bethesda really excels at. Their characters might not be best looking ones in video games but they really know how to build interesting quests that flesh out the world around you.

So although it will likely not be the perfect game, it will likely be the best in its niche much like Skyrim, Fallout 4 and others before it.

Finally a AAA space exploration RPG that covers almost everything.
Very exciting times.

Am I missing something? I haven't read anything here in the comments section about this. I don't know if it was just me, but to me the character in that third person view seemed to be too far to the left side of the screen and also too close to the screen. I'm not really a fan of that kind of third person view, I prefer to have my character in the middle of the screen and away from the screen like a traditional third person view.

So that's why they cancelled prey 2 for prey 2 source engine style find the creature as a desk shit.

So should we call this prey 2 or freelancer.
