Gamescom 2024 revealed a lot about the upcoming DLC and elaboration , Starfield Shattered Space , but even more details have been uncovered throughout the various interviews that Bethesda staff gave at the consequence . I ’ve been playingStarfieldsince its launching , and hands - down , one of the best aspect of the game for me was designing my own ship . Although it ’s possible toavoid space traveling throughout the absolute majority of a playthrough , blasting foe spacers out of quad with my overpowered figure made me appreciate this under - utilized aspect of the biz .
Even after getting ( spoilers ) theStarborn ship after completing my first playthrough , I still had the desire to build the most impressive ship I could , with themost expensive ship partsI could find across the Settled Systems . Believe it or not , compared to what I was able to build myself , the Starborn ship calculate puny in comparison . And I ’m not alone , with a big community that ’s already been build up around creating some of the most iconic ship from sci - fi media .
Starfield has a jolly extensive universe fill with a ton of content , but there is some cutting content that might have made the plot even better .

Predictably , further detail about the possible soma - out of the ship - building feature film inStarfieldremain slim , but there are a few predictions that can be made . For one , although the shipbuilder inStarfieldis probably one of the good aspects and systems in the game , it currently has a few restrictions in the vanilla extract translation that limit what creators can build . Incorporating some adjustment that mod creators have already introduced could open a whole newfangled humankind of possibilities for players .

Starfield’s Shipbuilder Has Two Major Problems
I’m Begging You To Remove Ship Building Restrictions, Bethesda
Starfield ’s shipbuilder with keyboard and mouse ( I do n’t begrudge those who have to use a controller ) is fine . While it is n’t perfect , and I have in spades placed some pieces just slimly detach from my ship and have gotten stuck inwardly of the ground , it ’s broadly speaking okay once you get the hang of thing . That allege , there are presently two major job with shipbuilders : the limitations on non - flowing ship and the size limitation .
Exploits and mods enable builder to build large ships , which have the unfortunate effect of often clipping through elements at the landing launchpad .
Since I still bet the vanilla version of the plot , my ship is built out to the maximal terminus ad quem of what the engine allow without using exploits . While it might not be the most telling ship ever built , I was lofty of it , and it almost has maximum stats in every family . That say , the fact that some of my initial designs were n’t sleek threw a wrench in my and potential other people ’s programme . After all , not all sci - fi media necessarily needs " aerodynamic " quality to be majuscule — just deliberate theStar Trek Borg Cube .

The other topic is a limitation on size . As I ’ve accrued so many credits throughout my playthroughs , money at this breaker point is almost pointless . I ’d love to create a floating warship or outer space place like the Crimson ’s Fleet ’s Key . If I have the money , time , and power to make it , I feel like I should be able to . Right now , I can only have 5 gang members , but I desire to build a mini - society on my ship . After all , there are enoughStarfieldrecruitable companionsto make that happen .
Mods Already Fixed Many Of The Issues
I Want A Vanilla Alternative
As Bethesda fans sleep together well , mod can help pad its game , especially shortly after launch . Starfieldis no dissimilar , but for some reason , I ’ve avoided mods thus far . It ’s probable because I drop a line so much about Starfield , so I require to make trusted that my experience is the same as what the Brobdingnagian majority of other players will go through . Even thoughCreations does make integrating mods much easier , I ’ve still stayed out .
That say , there are a legion of mods that benefit freshman spaceship engineers . A kind of mod , likeEasier Ship Building , add all ship parts to a centralized location so space adventurer do n’t have to traverse the whole Settled Systems to witness a single part . TN ’s Class M ( and Starborn Guardian ) Ship Buildingunlocks Class M parts , andShip Building Tweakslets mass build larger ships outside of the pre - set restrictions set by Bethesda without the need of an exploit . These QoL improvements can and probably should be added for good in the fundament game .
Essential mods for the sci - fi - themed RPG , Starfield , feature quality - of - life improvements that drive to streamline gameplay and make it more enjoyable .
I’m Looking Forward To The Shattered Space Ship Updates
I’ll Take Whatever I Can Get
irrespective of my criticisms of the game , I’m still looking ahead to the improvementsthat Bethesda design to make . After all , there ’s a good deal that encounter in ontogeny that is n’t expose to the populace . One understanding for the ship restrictions may be a functional one . have vast , unmanageable ships contain up too much elbow room in starports in restricted I like that of New Atlantis . Having a massive float whizz station clip through the confines of the available landing place pad is an immersion ledgeman .
One workaround could be that on planets with a dedicated starport like Akila or New Atlantis , players with huge ship are forced to land justly outside of the town . This does n’t seem like it would require too much workplace , and I ’d certainly take the tradeoff if it meant just walk a few more gait . irrespective of what they add to the shipbuilder inStarfield , I ’ll ensure to check out all the features as soon as it come up out withShattered Spaceon September 30 .
