Support NeoGAF

[Makoto-Yuki]

lemme show ya somethin'!

 

[Roni]

No mod support at launch? The fuck is this shit? Why?

Probably worried what will surface while the game is still hot for the media...

 

[Kacho]

There already are Starfield mods before the game even launched

Starfield - Nexus Mods

www.nexusmods.com

This is the right kind of autism

 

[Bernkastel]

That's actually really disappointing.

What are you shocked about? Its not like Creation Kit was ever available at launch and always took a few months. No one cares about the Creation Club.

That gif is not a "shocked reaction."

 

[Gudji]

Shit this makes the game a 10/10.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Are we outraged!? Are we gonna scream at the screen? Tell me what's going on? What's happening here???

It's disappointing. Who cares about Creation Club or Mickey Mouse Clubhouse when the community has been able to do this forever close to day 1 or right on the date.

There is nothing stopping mods from coming out on day 1.

This news is about the official creation club content and "official" mod support.

Thank you for clarifying that.

 

[adamsapple]

Thank you for clarifying that.

At least it's a solid confirmation that there should be a list of curated mods coming to Xbox soon as well. While you couldn't do the bigger mods on Xbox/PS4 for Skyrim and FO4, a decent number of mods still made their way to console, including weather / terrain edits and even some custom quest lines.

So it's a good sign.

 

[Montauk]

Can they mod in dong customisation ala Cyberpunk and BG3?

 

[R6Rider]

 

[STARSBarry]

What I'm most looking forward too is the day 1 mod that replaces your robot companion with Thomas the tank engine.

 

[Bernkastel]

Wait till RaceMenu and BodySlide are ported into Starfield. Its on a different level altogether.

 

[gothmog]

PC will have mods from day one, just not creation club crap.

Okay. I'm still waiting until there's a good selection of meaningful mods. I did it with Skyrim as well. Played on Xbox and then went PC once there was a community set of recommended mods. Then I went down that rabbit hole for a few months tweaking.

 

[Zathalus]

Creation Kit was not released until several months after Skyrim and Fallout 4 respectively. So I assume this is business as usual.

 

[amigastar]

Another reason to play it on Game Pass the first time.

 

[RoboFu]

What kind of mods would you want on DAY 1?

 

[Gudji]

What kind of mods would you want on DAY 1?

Mods to unlock frame rates and other technical aspects I guess.

 

[RiccochetJ]

What kind of mods would you want on DAY 1?

Things like removing the splash screen, removing encumbrance so I can see how many wheels of space cheese I can fit in my pockets before the game collapses on itself etc.

Wheels of cheese huh...

 

[X-Wing]

Weren't people counting on mods to have DLSS on launch?

 

[BlueLyria]

I'm willing to bet it's the stupid mod menu that they added in Skyrim and F4, most likely it's still going to support mods through MO2

 

[RoboFu]

Weren't people counting on mods to have DLSS on launch?

this is just official mods made with the official mod editor. Mods like DLSS are something different. You can still mod the game just the old way of hacking files.

 

[Draugoth]

This was the case for all Bethesda games,

The Creation Kit usually gets released later.

 

[Dane]

BGS never release mod tools together with the game, not even Skyrim had it at launch, it was added two months later.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

What kind of mods would you want on DAY 1?

Unlimited carrying weight, unlimited stamina/run, 60 fps mod on console (Fallout 4 had a 720p/60 fps mod on Xbox One maybe a year after launch I think. And it worked well too even boosting the menu screens to 60 fps).

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Haha... the fuck? I don't even use their mod creation kit for mods, lol. Also lol @ 8 mods already available before launch. This game is already giving back, and I haven't even played it yet.

It's disappointing. Who cares about Creation Club or Mickey Mouse Clubhouse when the community has been able to do this forever close to day 1 or right on the date.

Exactly.

 

[StereoVsn]

Oh boy, glad I didn't get this. That's a deal breaker and total bullshit frankly.

I now expect Steam reviews to be low.

Edit: NVM, it's Creation Kit stuff. It would be good to have on release but not end of the world. And nobody cares about creation club.

 

[adamsapple]

The OP needs to be updated. Posters are getting confused over what this means. This is talking about the creation club mod support, the officially curated Bethesda stuff.

There is nothing stopping people from releasing third party mods or mod managers.

 

[bender]

I'll just set mods = true in Starfield.ini.

 

[balls of snow]

Lol the Enterprise will be modded in by hour 3 of early access. Its a beth game running on an ancient engine.

 

[P:axMagellanic]

So long as there's console commands for infinite inventory weight and quest bypasses when they inevitably bug out.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

 

[winjer]

No mod support at launch on a Bethesda game. Then who is going to fix the bugs?

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

You console warriors don't realize that Bethesda is dependent on mods for their long term prospects?

Only Bethesda game I've used a mod for was Oblivion, and that was just to get rid of the psychic guards; it's always the loud minority who thinks everyone feels the same way, most players probably don't even notice or care.

 

[Bernkastel]

Its worse. He is talking about the Creation Club that no one ever cared for.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

They did this on FO4 and Skyrim, about 6 months later... It sucks. The community created their own tools until the official one came out.

 

[Green_Eyes]

"Actually that feature will NOT be available at launch"

 

[Paasei]

There'll be mods on Nexus the first day, no need to worry.

PC gamers don't rely on official mod support for mods to be available.

 

[Sweden85]

Delayed by almost a year...

 

[Pagusas]

yeah this is a nothing story guys, Skyrim and all didn't launch with native mod support. Creation Kit dev takes time. IT doesnt mean their wont be mods, they just wont have direct creation kit support immediately.
