    Biggest tip I've found is using the flight sim thing in New Atlantis to level up your pilot score rather than trying to find random ships out in space to fight.

    Directly related to dealing with stolen goods - contraband. You can sell it at a Trade Authority, but you need to be able to get to the vendor without having your ship scanned, which happens when you enter many systems. There's a system called "Wolf" near Alpha Centauri (just a bit up and to the right from the default map orientation), with a space station called "The Den", where you can reach a Trade Authority vendor without being scanned.

    • @RevanAlaire
      @RevanAlaire 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

      Just make sure you don't have a UC bounty on your head as they still have guards on the station.
      Though you can also go to the Crimson Fleet to sell your contraband.

    Pro tips: you can also just double tap the pins on the cuttable walls with normal guns. Also when you're using your scanner, the cutter is auto-selected as your weapon and you can use it, then when you close the scanner you go back to equipping the gun you were using before opening the scanner

    In regards to the first tip; you can also pick up dead bodies and move them around.

    If you want something from your ship's inventory while in a city, you can sell it from the ship's inventory to a local shop, and then buy it back at no additional cost. The item will then be in your player inventory without having to go all the way back to where you parked the ship.

    I actually like using the cutter from time to time. If you focus the lense with the aim button/trigger, I believe it does more damage and it can be really good for mitigating ammo usage on easy or staggerable targets.

I think it was a vanguard mission. Could be mistaken but I remember it vividly because of the engine thing.

    Best tips I have are for ship building. Double clicking your ship in builder mode will select all parts and Ctrl-Left Clicking (I don't know the Xbox control) will select multiple parts, this is very handy for painting your ship rather than painting each part individually. Also if you hover over a connection point on you ship and press Add Part then it will filter all the parts that can fit there and save you scrolling time.

    When you're at an outpost of yours, instead of going to the beacon or holding X/square/E on a building, you can enter the settlement mode by going into your scanner and clicking your button that youd press to set up a outpost beacon. Instead of pulling out a beacon itll put you into build mode.

    When you go to Akila City for the first time, there's a general store on your left, and a hostage situation on your right. Ignore the latter, and walk up to the general store... get down on your knees, and take some time to admire your reflection in the puddle just outside. You can't actually see your reflection, but much like the infamous Dawnstar chest in Skyrim, you will eventually see the vendor's inventory. And you can loot it all free and clear, and then sell it back to them. However, watch the resources, there are a lot of rocks in there weighing hundreds of pounds... might wanna dump that off at your ship before dealing with the hostage situation. Chest is always available in this way, too. I spent 24k on ammo, went outside, and took all my credits back.
    Bethesda will likely not fix this. There are 3-4 chests in Skyrim like this, and these chests were fixed fairly early on by the Unofficial Skyrim Patch. When Bethesda made the Special Edition for the Xbox One, and the Switch edition of the game, they did not include these fixes. So, they knew about the easily accessible vendor chests, they had the code to fix them right there in the open, and they made the decision to not fix them. So it is highly likely that they will leave these alone, too. There are more - this is just the easy one to get.

    I'm really enjoying Starfield in general but I'm remembering why I bounced off Fallout and Skyrim. The relentless resource management, storing stuff in the right place and not having access to things you've collected because you've left them in a storage box on the other side of the galaxy or even just in another part of town. It's all such a faff, seems to be like 70% of the game and it definitely ruining it for me.... Also the skill points are so slow 😭. I want to love you Starfield but you're making it real tough.

      You [and this video] just gave me an idea on how to get things from ship cargo without going back to your ship.
      When selling to vendors, you can swap to your ship cargo. If you need something from your ship, sell it to a vendor, then buy it back. I haven't had a chance to test this yet, but i think it would work!
      Still need a good way to send things to your ship, though. Its annoying having to get stuff out of a follower's inventory.

      Not being used to the Bethesda mechanics but also because of the slow skill points, I found myself a bit stuck recently. Still with the starter ship and just one point into weightlifting I had set been dutifully collecting minerals and had maybe 5 guns but my inventory was full, my ship was full, I couldn't fast travel and with no map of the city I was having to trudge around slowly to buy a thing I couldn't manufacture to build a storage box on an outpost. And really I wanted to use the storage box for outpost mining. I couldn't really earn any points because I couldn't do anything with all the weight. In the end I emptied the contents of my whole ship into my pockets and hauled my ass across town on foot (no fast travel) to the Lodge and stuck it all in the safe in my bedroom. But now I have loads of components I have work out what I need, fly over there and manually take them out of my safe (but not too many that I can't fast travel back to my ship, any time I want to use all the stuff I've been mining.
      I'm not saying its not my fault but its all just such a drag. Great game, bored of item management.

      @@willyum3920 All that said my biggest advice is to not really get too deep into base building or crafting unless that is something you really really want to do - the game is pretty generous with money I've made well over 300k just doing the ambient quests (some weirdly good random questlines not tied to anything are in this game) I'm just now tackling the main story and faction quests which also pay quite decent and you can actually convince many quest givers to give you extra money without being a scumbag which is nice. If you get the targeting control systems skill you can also disable enemy ship engines, board and then steal ships which you can then sell for easy money. Make enough and you can just buy most things - way easier than mining resources and building up outposts and doing research to unlock parts and all that (again unless that's what you WANT to do). Without spoiling, certain questlines also give you really good ships if you want an easy way to fix that situation.

    Getting into ship inventory to move your material to it or vice-versa doesn't require actually going to the ship's cargo panel. Anywhere inside the ship you can open your own inventory, tap whatever you use to swap between buy/sell with vendors (Q on PC), and it will jump you to ship inventory. Tap it again and you're back in your own, and now you can dump all your black market organs right into your shielded cargo pods.

    First tip should be familiar for Bethesda fans however one unique aspect to Starfield I don’t see anyone else doing is with so many flammable tanks around you can set traps for your enemies by picking them up and moving/throwing them. I like using them more as ambush traps (place a few at a door way where you know enemies are, draw the in and when the get to the tanks shoot one) then “grenades” but both options are viable. And there are also sorts of different tanks that do all sorts of different types of damage. Explosive, poison/corrosive, fire, etc.
