One of many absolute strangest issues about Starfield is that area journey is generally performed by menus and clicking buttons. You will have a complete ass ship! It is best to have the ability to fly round in area and do cool issues with it! As an alternative, ship gameplay is generally reserved for fight. For those who attempt to fly your ship from one planet to a different, you’ll discover that it’s just about unimaginable.
Besides… it’s not.
Two Starfield gamers have found that it’s certainly doable to fly from one planet or moon to a different. It simply takes a hell of a very long time. Reddit consumer u/RiddleMeThis– and YouTuber/gaming character Alanah Pearce tried flying to a different planet within the ship, and yeah it really works. Pearce uploaded a video to her YouTube channel final month displaying that it takes about seven hours to get to a different planetary floor, which you’ll try down under:
u/RiddleMeThis did the identical factor, although they did use a console command to extend the sport pace.
When you really attain the planetary floor, you may scan it and work together with it such as you would some other planet within the recreation, although you do nonetheless have to make use of the menus to land on it correctly, which is a bummer.
It’s price noting that Starfield’s area exploration facet was clearly impressed by No Man’s Sky, Hiya Video games’ now-excellent area exploration recreation that revolves closely round your ship and the way you navigate your environment with it. No Man’s Sky lacks within the narrative and quest division, certain, nevertheless it’s simple that its exploration facet is now high notch. Starfield nonetheless has a little bit of a method to go earlier than it could actually match Hiya Video games’ area effort, however hey, possibly we’ll see it within the sequel?
Starfield is now accessible on consoles and PC.
