What is Starfield? Behave, if you don't know I don't know what to say.

Release date? Can you not read?? See above.

Price? Price doesn't matter to us ballers. Peasants see you next week.

Reviews? The carnage begins @5pm GMT.

Welcome Gaffers to the quick and dirty unofficial OT for the early access period for Starfield! Some non peasants were asking for a place to discuss the game once it goes live through "early access" tonight as there is distinct lack of Starfield threads on the forum just now. So here you go.

The actual OT is being done by M mortal and will be live in due course. When that happens we can all shift over there.

Not sure on spoiler rules but I'd suggest no story spoilers unless clearly tagged? But the rest? Locations, screen shots traits, builds and everything else is fair game? If not let me know and update the OP.

Engage!

The only way I'd become an idiot an upgrade to early version is if PC gaf tells me this is the most optimized, bug-less game ever made and it runs at 4k 240 fps easily on high end and has DLSS support.

I go to the gym at 5am, so half considering it seeing as its a "Self Dev" day tomorrow at work as well

Still my Steam pre load is being weird, it still says the Release date is the 6th so hopefully it'll change at 1am
 
My dad bought this on Xbox and we game share. I’m very tempted to download it on there so I can play at 1am whilst waiting for Steam to unpack things.

You're good. But be prepared for a lengthy unpack/decryption and a possible 15gb patch afterwards.

Edit. When i say lengthy i shouldn't be more that 15 mins depending on your PC in my experience.

Does anybody knows if the pre order bonus will be available during the early access period? I want to buy the Premium Edition tomorrow

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

I'm sure you will be able to redeem whatever comes with the premium edition as soon as you buy it (minus the story expansion, cause that's not even a thing yet)

I just got my preorder bonus key from CDKeys. So, they released it.

It did not download anything. I assume the stuff is already in the game, it just unlocks it.

15 mins would be fine, it’s stupid long and faster to just download when it’s available. Unless you have a really slow connection or trying to maximize data cap.
