Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any recording of it, but there are random side quests that will give you coordinates for different points of interest on Earth. I know the ruins of London are one of them
Only via side quests you can find landmarks i tried to land in New York, Dubai and Saint Louis to look for landmarks there but the game don't spawns anything
Another thing is you can set custom landing points before enter atmosphere, when you do, it generates an area that is the topography of what can be seen from the planetary orbit view. Which means you could, in theory, just find it yourself
I like seeing the shard in london but it’s unrealistic how theres only one building, atleast add a few more for someone to find and actually know what city they are standing in.
Since The Shard was considered a monument, I get the impression that it was intentionally left standing and everything else of material value on the surface has been collected and recycled.
It’s unfortunate seeing it full stop because it’s such an ugly modernist building. Of all London architecture to perish, of course the big glass phallus is all that’s left.
@@themk4982that really is terrible the more you think about it. Stone architecture/monuments that have lasted centuries to this day evaporated into time an yet a flimsy ass glass twig sticking up from the ground is somehow more liable to withstand the test of time.
Thats not very realistic, magnetospheres dont just shut down, it takes a long time and its tied to the earth's core spinning, that could stop but it would take a long time. They probably did not know how to deal with earth in game, having to make all those cities and locations and people.
@tylerwilkerson8287 Not gonna be our problem and there isn't anything we can do about it. It'll take thousands of years to have any effect on the surface.
That's heresy to abandon Holy Terra like that... The Emperor would be ashamed of them. In 40 Earth is in much the same state but it's still almost one huge city with billions of people still living on it. It's also the most heavily defended location in the galaxy in 40k with Emperor knows how many planet killing weapons in system. Shame they didn't put ruins or die hard hold outs who refused to leave Earth no matter it's state. (this is sarcasm I don't actually care, stop eating eating paint chips people jesus...)
The magnetosphere of Earth in 40k is still intact, the reason earth is a wasteland in 40k is because it was stripped of its natural resources and because of the constant wars
Ah yes, super powered armor, vs humanity with NASA level technology, on a planet that was doomed from the moment the magnetosphere died, considering it takes all of 8 minutes for the sun to cook the planet.
Best not to overthink about it. Though, without a magnetosphere I would think it would take longer than two centuries for the atmosphere to fully erode and all the water to evaporate into space. I would also expect some presences of civilization would remain, maybe moving underground like they did on Mars. Speaking of Mars, maybe there would be water left at the polar caps and underground. Oh dear, I seemed to have gone cross eyed.
Naturaly atmosphere is eroding on earth right now but it's slow and humans put already enough gasses to fix that Without magnetosphere you're right it would take time for fully erode but remember sun is active and there are a lot of solar storms each year And combine that earth realisticly would almost instantly loose magnetosphere But In game there is lore about earth slowly loosing magnetosphere here is that
You are correct, it would take millions of years for earth to lose enough atmosphere to affect habitability. However, Todd Howard is suffering from a brain tumor that seriously limits his intelligence, so there was no way for him to grasp this fact.
@@iandavidvillaloboswong5180 space already visible at all times But sun is so freaking bright and we have atmosphere scattering Also other stars in day time even without atmosphere will not be visible cause of so freaking bright sun is
It's more complex. As ingame info Earth atmosphere vented into space in less than 50 years. And lack of magnetosphere means deadly radiation. Worst than Mars.
You can see the earth from the moon, you just have to land in a location facing the earth. The moon isn’t visible from earth though which I find quite upsetting.
I made sure to land in spots that should have Earth visible, based on time of day and what not. I know they showed planets in the skyboxes before so I' wondering if it's just a bug
@@0periodproductions definitely try again later. Earth was 100% visible from the moon surface for me and there’s other TH-cam videos where you can see earth from the moon.
The moon is faced with one side to Earth so when you are on the moon the earth must hang over your head on the sky always on the same place. If you can’t see the moon on the sky - you’re on the wrong side of it. I’m talking about the REAL moon in our world, ofc.
Modders will just mod the entire Earth into the game - either making it liveable with no global warming issues and full of life and futuristic cities or make it like fallout with loads of ruins and mutated monsters
I hope there’s some references to the fallout games on earth. There’s so much potential. Like hiding the ranger statues in the sand like in New Vegas’ secret ending
Thanks for the lore, George. Great summary and details shared. I'm not far into the game yet, but I have to hope they've given us a few of those famous landmarks.
Apparently there's some books you need to read for specific landmarks to spawn. And further on in the campaign you unlock another location, which if you fully explore that one you can find the mars rover.
It's a Bethesda Game, of course there will be dozens of earth revamps but there will be add-on mods for those mods as well, give or take six months from now on
I got to admit, it would be very sad to see Earth become that in real life I just hope it never becomes a waste land like in the video game and we are able to keep the environment safe
I found a rather strange cave filled with chlorine life on earth its in the area where like new York Washington used to be mining equipment can be also found in front of it...and bones aswell of what it looks like may be a bear I think due to the skull a bit deeper I didn't find anything that could give a clue of what was up in that cave but I wanted ya to know [if ya see this lol] cause I found it curious and bizarre there is still some sort of life
Because they wanted Earth to be in the game, but didn't want to put in any of the effort to make the ruins of Earth, and the signs of a collapsed modern civilization. Probably either so modders can have an easy time messing with it, or so they can make a dlc about saving it later.
SPOILER: Humans found an artifact on mars. They experimented on it to create the grav drives but doing so destroyed earth’s magnetosphere. The main quest is about you searching for the artifacts. You learn this towards the end. There are various different land marks and ruins but you have to get the coordinates. You can’t stumble upon the earth ruins by just landing on the planet.
You find out what caused the magnetosphereto collapse, and why Earth turned barren in the main questline. Without spoilers - human ingenuity with no regard for consequences, and kne guy ignoring what was happening.
Has to be true, I dislike anti earth propaganda aswell. If they made it right they would've made it the most important planet on the one you started one it just makes sense.
I will list some of the books to buy to get landmarks here New York: Our Lost Heritage (found in MAST building in New Atlantis upper floors President Abilos room Egypt: the Ancient Civilization of Egypt London: Oliver Twist Saint louis arch: The Price of Destiny (found in Benjamin Bayu's penthouse in Neon) Burj Khalifa: Race to the Heavens (found in Larry Dumbrosky's suite on the Siren of the Stars luxury liner) Bonus moon location: The Apollo Lander (found Sir Livingstone's Second Journal, which is on the desk in Matteo's room at The Lodge in the MAST District of New Atlantis)
Also said in game (first mission speech option) the atmosphere of Earth vented into space in less than 50 years. And only few spots with ruins remained.
@@0periodproductionsyeah Earth’s lore in this game actually goes a lot deeper once you Get through the main story. Definitely alot more interesting than what the museum tells you.
4:36 You can! You just probably weren't on the moon long enough for it to come into view, or you weren't on the right part of the moon. Earth from the moon is a bit small too, kinda like how we see the moon from Earth. 'Course, the moon has a ridiculously long day / night cycle, seeing it's tidally locked to the Earth. It takes a full month for the moon to rotate once, hence why we only see one side of the moon as that's also how long it take to complete a full orbit around the Earth. Anyway, enough nerdin' out 'bout space from me!
I feel what Beth should have done was make it so that one of those proton colliders we have ended up swallowing and vaporizing the Earth and therefore its Moon would end up being the 3rd planet of Sol. Because clearly it was not possible to recreate our whole planet (or even what remained of it) so they had to resort to making it a desert planet with only a few of our landmarks remaining.
If you go to florida there's the launch site where they send you to Mars where you can find an easter egg regarding the rover Opportunity with a snow globe on top of it containing the rover itself.
I’m glad Bethesda elected to use a non-controversial storyline of the magnetosphere’s collapse. I feel any other method of Earth’s demise would become too distracting to the overall story.
If you keep pushing the main quest line, it will take you to Luna and Earth and I saw some landmarks. I don't want to spoil it, but you will also find out why Earth lost its magnetosphere.
Spoiler: Humans experimented with an artifact and that destroyed the magnetosphere. You learn this near the end of the main quest when you have to retrieve the artifact that destroyed earth.
Right when I got to 1:26, a spoiler alert started looming over my head, so I backed out😅...I'm just going to have to see it for myself during my playthrough 😏
It got forgotten about cus its easier to develop a procedural generated area instead of having to recreate something that actually exists and pay attention to detail of said area
You can visit multiple landmarks once you find the book’s that are referencing the locations I’ve found Cairo which had half broken pyramids still looking for more ruins burg Khalifa is also a location
It sounds great in fiction but in reality we humans are taking earth for granted. Rather then saving the planet we call our home and which alone have the best chance of our survival, we spend billions and trillons in search of some other exo planets or mars or moon water etc. Spend only 10 percent of the amount in order to restore the earth, cleaning and planting trees, using the eco-friendly things, doing less pollution and we don't for another planet. I despise Starfield because it thinks that the planet we current living in have 0 chance of survival of human and other planets are best for human, if we have so advance technology to terraformation why can't we use that on Earth itself?
what a sad story for mother earth 🌎 and now shes a legend that everyone will speak about the mass waters and lands and beautiful cities and tropical paradises all gone within a nut shell 😢 i truly believe this is going to happen in real life for earth's future
I think you can see Earth from the Moon however it's not the blue marble we're used to and now it looks like a dull version of Mars but I'm 99% sure I saw Earth when I landed on the moon.
So pretty much Earth ended up like Mars because Mars used to have an atmosphere until it disappeared and everything on it died. So history just repeated itself on earth so humanity had no choice but to move to Mars and try to find new Earth like planets they can live on which they accomplished and colonized multiple solar systems.
As for why the Earth is so bare, the game hints that the Earth was stripped of resources. To rescue the Earth population and travel outside our solar system would have required vast amounts of resources, Earth would be the easiest place the strip of resources - be it natural or man-made. Metal alone would have been invaluable, requiring the compete deconstruction of cities and town.
a little context: Fallout 4 takes place in 2287 Starfield is in 2300s No animals, no plants, nothing living. not even the mutated abominations of fallout. so I guess we can put the "starfield is the universe beyond the sky of Fallout" theory... Unless... bethesda slaps some vault-tec easter eggs in unexplored locations on earth
Bethesda has already said prior to Starfield releasing that the Starfield Universe isn’t connected to either Fallout or The Elder Scrolls universe in any way. I know because I was once convinced that Starfield was going to be basically Fallout in space thanks in large part to the whole Space mural in the Museum of Freedom in Falling 4, but BGS then clarified they weren’t connected.
Bethesda should've continued the Fallout universe in Starfield, "humanity rose from the radioactive ash, facing general ecological collapse it took to the stars and left a dead cradle"
Just a reason for developers to skip Earth content. It takes a lot to develop the whole earth. Can you imagine Earth size GTA or Cyberpunk, there is no solid procedurally generated environment with good interior. That the main setback for metaverse or twin city.
I’m going to be honest, the moment I found out earth was uninhabited it almost killed it for me. It just seemed like “Oh of course it is, because no one can think of anything original other than, our home is dead” biggest eye roll ever.
if you can't find the statue of liberty half buried in sand, I'm going to be very disappointed.
Damn them all to hell! Surely mods will do it. Hell I will do it if others don't want to

Hey any chance you can check South Africa in this game 😂 I would like to see what is over there in a few thousand years
I can see earth from my outpost on the moon. It just looks like the moon though because of the color but it's there
As for why the Earth is so bare, the game hints that the Earth was stripped of resources. To rescue the Earth population and travel outside our solar system would have required vast amounts of resources, Earth would be the easiest place the strip of resources - be it natural or man-made. Metal alone would have been invaluable, requiring the compete deconstruction of cities and town.
You cant see earth from the moon.....? Why do i feel like not even going now lol.
you can, i definitely saw it
a little context:
Fallout 4 takes place in 2287
Starfield is in 2300s
No animals, no plants, nothing living.
not even the mutated abominations of fallout.
so I guess we can put the "starfield is the universe beyond the sky of Fallout" theory...
Unless... bethesda slaps some vault-tec easter eggs in unexplored locations on earth
Bethesda has already said prior to Starfield releasing that the Starfield Universe isn’t connected to either Fallout or The Elder Scrolls universe in any way. I know because I was once convinced that Starfield was going to be basically Fallout in space thanks in large part to the whole Space mural in the Museum of Freedom in Falling 4, but BGS then clarified they weren’t connected.
You can see the earth from the moon but for some reason it’s uncommon, and it’s small. Very small
You and epicnate315 sounds very alike
I feel like you're giving Bethesda way too much credit to assume they built any landmarks.
I hope there's a mod or dlc story mission is to find a ancient alien terraforming technology and use it to restore earth back to it's former glory.🌎
Bethesda should've continued the Fallout universe in Starfield, "humanity rose from the radioactive ash, facing general ecological collapse it took to the stars and left a dead cradle"
New iniciative: Revive earth
The real story for what happened to Earth is revealed elsewhere in the game. I won't spoil it
Ik what happened I explained it but deleted it cause I don’t wanna be a villain but if you see this finish the main quest
Just a reason for developers to skip Earth content. It takes a lot to develop the whole earth. Can you imagine Earth size GTA or Cyberpunk, there is no solid procedurally generated environment with good interior. That the main setback for metaverse or twin city.
Earth got hit by the biggest disaster ever... Bethesda lazy design.
And so the lore videos begin, that was stupidly fast
I’m going to be honest, the moment I found out earth was uninhabited it almost killed it for me.
It just seemed like “Oh of course it is, because no one can think of anything original other than, our home is dead” biggest eye roll ever.
Anyone found The Grand Canyon yet?
you can see earth from the moon. ya gotta be in the correct spot. its very small.
THE BOMBS FELLLL
Neato
sounds to me like they were too lazy to build any city so they decided to just get rid of earth
Let me mark on the map another settlement need you're help
i just landed on earth chose UK as my landing area, its a desert and theres no OXYGEN! what the?
