Awesome video helped me a lot in the beginning. One tip... Just launder the stolen items. Removes the red tag. Take them to a trade facility and sell it to them and do not exit or back out. Just buy them back right away for the same price you sold them. It launders them and makes them clean. There was even a scene in the game where someone comments about the trade organization selling stolen property so its a Canon way to clean items.
a tip for anyone stuck needing to level piloting quickly, go do the vanguard training and keep doing the flight training until your maxed level, killing ships in the simulation counts towards the skill
If you're doing this 1. Do not go past lv4 in the sim. Let yourself get wiped out aka the sim ship blown up at lv5. Then leave the sim and "try again." you can do this until you max the skill and as well use the process to get targeting maxed out too. To assure the most efficient use when you leave the simulator, just ignore the not there ... that way you can return as you like... you also can improve the test ship on the computer. When the simm starts, get up from the seat and go adjust the computer. Also the best way to get to much higher levels if you want to do the full faction quest
I dunno if someone's already said this, but remarking on your regrets about not ranking up the pilot skill- you can go to the flight simulator in Mast District (part of that faction quest) and redo it over and over to get your ship kill count up. Great guide, thanks!

@dayneh2 it's the faction quest line where you join UC Vanguard, I *think* it starts with Keeping the Peace, don't remember if that's a mission title you can see straight off or whether there's an activity listed to ask about the vanguard or what
One random tip if you are struggling in ship combat change all our weapons to just one weapon. This way you can put all of your weapon energy into one weapon system instead of trying to seperate the energy into several weapon systems. This lets you in a way to punch above your level.
Something that helps me is I disable my ships ballistic weapons and then split energy between lasers and missiles (because I have way, way too many missile racks ) I use the lasers to pop shields and then the missiles to tear down the hull.
One thing that helped me is to have maxed power on shields when ever I am in combat. Then secondary priorties would be weapons then engines the one weapon type helps with this so that you can dedicate more power in other areas. Another thing is to consider your ship classes A,B, or C. Each ship has a certain playstyle that it fills. A being fighter, normally very fast and somewhat small. So try to put maneuver your enemy's. Then B class medium shields, medium maneuverability generally. C class is the largest ship class poor maneuverability but good shields. The best tactic for a c class ship is to tank shots and use turreted weapons to fire in your enemy's. Although this is just in my experience, and what I recommended is to find the ship class, and style you like, and experiment.
If you’re using a controller, reverse the controls for the sticks. I had to switch left to right and right to left so it plays more like Battlefield. Although, still to this day, no game that incorporates flying has done controls like Ace Combat, which are the most ideal controls for flying.
So right now I'm just playing a "Mess around and find out" character to learn the game, but listening to these guides has almost prepared me to build a new character that I can make the most of this game with. Thanks!
Bro is spitting genuine knowledge and advice not just HATE, he single handedly made me hyped for the game more than the other outlets making me second guess it
I found the game more entertaining the more you progress the main story quest, it opens the game even more and so much to do. The ease to get sidetrack is mind blowing to me and I have never spend more than 2 or 3 days playing any Bethesda game before give it a chance and play your way, game is amazing.
You don't need others to tell you how to think Seejeh, if you want to check the game out, check the fucking game out. Take the risk, reap the rewards or consequences. I wouldnt give a shit if this game got 10% positive reviews, I'm still checking it out for myself.
@@bushmonster1702dude every single Bethesda game (including the ones that at the time got rave reviews) has had poor graphics, ridiculous amount of bugs, and other outdated mechanics at the time they came out. The fact that StarField has middling to decent graphics, very few bugs on actual release, faster loading screens, is a vast improvement over it’s previous releases. Every single complaint I heard about StarField is completely missing the point of what makes a great Bethesda game (and this game is the greatest in my opinion). The point being is that you are introduced into a vast story driven world (or galaxy) that is utterly filled with numerous opportunities, of which you are free to create your own path. If you are not really willing to take such a journey (and the 100s of hours that goes with it), than why are you even bothering to play a Bethesda game in the first place?
Contraband can be taken and sold at The Den, in the Wolf system. They won't scan you prior to docking. You can also sell stolen items to Trade Authority, and then buy back for the same price you sold it, which will then remove the 'stolen' marker from the item. Helpful if you stole something that you want to keep
Definitely going to have to remember this because I’m always picking up almost anything. Interesting that they’ll sell it back to you for the same price…
Great info vid, well done. One trick for thoes with contraband.... just fly to your outpost and make a chest just for that. Then when you're up in commerce go on a special run to the Den in the Wolf system. You also if are going to do any crafting will want one for stolen items you craft with and one for weapons helmets ect you can modify. Any stolen item you modify looses the stolen tag and is ascwe worth more too
Made it to the end and enjoyed it all. Most I knew, but there were a few bits I didn't have a clue about. Pro Tip for Digipicks and lockpicking: Always savescum before attempting a try and remember you can tab through ALL picks and line everything up BEFORE committing to using any attempts. I always go through the list and line everytying up and then just open on first attempt. Enjoy!
the game is so deep and really demands everything out of you, but what fascinates me even more is that no matter what problem i have, there is always a content creator out there who immediately helps with a video. so also here. thank you.
I have not played this game yet. But, I have watched several Beginner Guides. Plus, I have watched many Beginner Guides for over 50 games. Let me just say that yours is better than any I have EVER seen. Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If any of the other You Tubers want to know how to make a Beginner Guide they need to watch yours. Thank you again so much.
The most beginner friendly starter guide I've seen for starfeild. Has every system that I have come to know but struggled with a bit in the beginning. If you're starting starfeild you need to watch this video
I’ve never watched one of these videos before until I started playing Starfield. I have played through the game once at this stage and watching this has given me so many tips.
I really appreciate the time you put into this. I’m only a few hours in and have enjoyed the game so far. The biggest issue I have is the lack of tutorials. For instance, the lock pick system. There were no explanations in game on how this worked. I found boxes before digipicks, and tried to open them for a few minutes before I realized what was needed. And then when I got one, it again took me a good bit of time to figure out how it worked. Several systems that you discussed here, I had no hint at them being available, like crew placement. I think they really dropped the ball here. So your video has been hugely helpful.
Thanks LG!!! Your videos along with other people's videos caused me to delete the game I started and begin anew with reason and purpose and saved me countless grief, heartache and time in the process. Making way more enjoyable. Again, thank you!!
Hey man just picked up the game yesterday and I'm hooked already, as per usual thanks for the insane amount of research and effort you put into these beginners guides you truly go above and beyond to cover everything in these games, an excellent and extremely informative vid, I'll always visit your channel whenever a new game comes out in the future, hands down best guides on RUclips.👍
Great help as always and I love that you didn't show spoilers. You gave me just enough info to get familiar with the systems which was all I wanted. Thanks Lucky, you're the best!
I really appreciate you spending time to do this video! I love Fallout and Elder Scrolls, but when I first started Starfield, I was very underwhelmed. After watching your video, and some other ones I have came across, it has renewed my interest in this game. I am starting to enjoy it so much more! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this - I'm only 40 minutes in and you've covered more info than anyone else I've watched today who was covering Starfield. Edited to add -- I am now going to be a major empire builder with all the outpost stuff - absolutely amazing.
I like taking my time through a game, particularly one as explorative as Starfield. Short games, or those I breeze through quickly don't make me feel like it's money well spent. Btw...this is how you make a guide! Excellent work!
Watched the whole thing, loved it. Was so confused with some of the mechanics of this game, now i feel i have all the tools i need to have a fun and successful playthrough. Thanks!
If you save 3 skill points you can max piloting on new atlantis in the pilot simulator. Start uc vanguard quest with tuala and at end of hallway is a flight simulator. Just keep goong in and killing ships and leaving before tier 6, then go back in, rinse and repeat, it also works if you save like 10 skill points and it can level any ship skill like shields, engines, ect
You didn't mention Stealth!! It's important to unlock the stealth meter so you can even know if you're detected or not. Very important to know about!! Also Scavenging is particularly useful when you get into the NG+ aspect of the game, and a great thing to grab early.
Alright, I’m actually 50+ hours into the game but really wanted the authentic figure it out for myself experience before I started checking out the community. Awesome tips, scan fast travel (the gaming experience is some much better mid game). Skills - targeting, jump pack and starship design (learned about piloting the hard way). Also ship building (only can have one grav drive and reactor). I haven’t tried to build an outpost but once I’m done building a ship to the level I want I’ll try that. The follow up questions this brought up were: 1. Social Optimization (did manipulation from Raijin + maxed persuasion and it helps so much but curious about the other options) 2. Best ships, and parts (weapon, drive for each ship design level and class) 3. Outpost - protecting it, what materials to optimize and what practical things can you put (mission boards, mod benches etc. and on which planets) 4. Best missions (outside of main) so all factions ( I think there are 4 UC, Raijin, Freestar, Crimson Fleet but I hope there are more - super fun) 5. Way more detail about crew - who are the best to follow you, who are the best for ships and outposts etc. can more than one person follow you. Looking forward to the rest of your videos!
This guide convinced me to really give starfield a new chance. It showed it really is a bethesda game. And it's flaws can be shadawed by it's strenghts. Thankyou for your positive tone!
Fantastic guide. I’m sitting here at work anxious to get off so I can play and watching this helped make time go by faster. Thanks so much for all the information! I’m HYPED!
*YOU CAN GRAV JUMP TO AVOID SCANS* If you grav jump to a zone and you start getting scanned (for organs, etc.), hit your map button,pick a location that doesn't scan (some black market spots) . Once you select a spot, *PUT POWER TO YOUR GRAV JUMP* and you'll jump out in like .5 seconds. Hope this helps someone!
A tip. Go the social route and grab leadership and crew command. Last rank of Lead doubles bonuses of companions on ground and in ship that they buff you with. The last rank of Command gives 6 crew on ship.
A little tip about storing your crafting materials....... In the basement of the Lodge, there are all the crafting tables. Right next to the research station in the center of the room, there is a box with infinite storage as well. I have found it to be the perfect spot to store crafting materials when not using them. When you need to craft or research you can just use take all, do your business, then store what you did not use back in the box for later. That way you don't have to go all the way up to your safe, then walk down to the basement. Also, when you have a massive amount of materials on your ship and do not want to walk all through Jemison transporting them to the Lodge, you can put them in your inventory, then travel directly to the Lodge from your ship if you choose the Lodge when landing.
Great video for beginners. I would like to see more related base and outpost building. I noticed you did not "link" your extractor to the storage but instead manually moved it. I saw a stream of someone who linked their extractor to storage and then storage to the structure that has incoming and outgoing storage on it that allows for access across multiple outposts. Really interested in seeing a more in-depth guide on how all the outpost and base mechanics work. Thanks and keep up the great vids.
Some nice tips I hadn't realised, especially with the fast travel - I got early access so I have about 10 hours atm. Gopher tested the distance you could run from your ship and it worked out at 3km in any direction, so unless you move your ship, that's your lot!
You sir are the legend, these are not only great to watch but keeps me informed from the audio whilst I grind out my studies. So keen to jump back in once I’m back home. ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Amazing vid! Just finished watching all of it before the early release! Feel a lot more informed going into the game now! Thank you for the great content!
This is a great video Lucky!! You and Desh did a great job with this!! Love all the research that went into this! I'll make sure to revisit this video once I pick up the game!! ❤❤
Thanks for the video - very informative. Just started on my grand adventure and I’m really enjoying it so far thanks to your tips. Looking for the moon made of cheese but it remains elusive 😂
Phenomenal video, much appreciated. Detailed and clear! I’ve found that starfield has a steep learning curve and you just cut it down a little. Thanks!
For now I’m keeping everything in a little storage box downstairs in the lodge that also has infinite storage. Way easier than walking back and forth from the crafting tables to my bedroom lol
Just so you know you can fight basically an unlimited amount of ships using the flight simulator used for the UC testing in New Atlantis. Destroying those simulated enemy ships count for challenges.
@@sicecko you don’t have to. They have you use it for a test to get accepted into the UC. Once you complete the flight sim, you can come back and retake it as many times as you want.
Are you a Teacher of sorts ?? Your Loving the DETAILs in your Video ...WELL DONE.. This is one of the Best on youtube. Been playing for 3 days now....having a ton of fun Do you have a video on Basic Building of Mining resources on planets ?? I am having difficulty understanding how , and where this is done. 24:43...Before I land on a civilized planet, I like to TRADE /SELL all my MISCELLENOUS stuff with other ships in orbit of planets...so my inventory is emptied, for other things when exploring the next planet. 31:04..I don't have the Skill called *PERSUASION* ...but when I where a Clothing that has a bonus on "+5% Persuasion" , It does the job... I like wearing clothing that adds +5 to Carry load on my person 34:07 ..when I score an illegal contraband...I always take it to the Wolf System = Den StarStation...and sell it to the Trade place there... I haven't found any other place that does this, yet... 35:28...If you scan the resources of planets....you get a notepad for it...these sell for alot of money at different places. 43:20...I've found alot of ship repair kits, when I am in a planets orbit and hail a ship and trade / buy *Ship Repair Kits* I haven't found a planet , yet, that sells these.
Definitely going to leave a sub and like on this vid. Between this and your BG3 guide I’m looking forward to more beginner friendly guides as newer games come out. Great job man 👍🏾
Hey Lucky, been watching some of your Diablo videos and was pumped to see you putting out Starfield content. One major tip for you that might save your piloting error, I have not tested this but have with another companion skill so I think it will work here to, as long as you assign a companion to the right location his/her perk will light up, giving you the equivalent of having that perk unlocked. I believe it is Sam Coe that has four ranks in piloting so as long as you have him assigned to your ship, you should be able to pilot class c, I don't know how this will work with stealing ships, but it seems to work for his payload perk which gives 2 ranks equal to 20 percent increase in cargo capacity, which I can say with no points in payload my ship has 20 percent increased cargo. Like I said I haven't fully tested this so don't yell at me if this turns out to be false lol
this is an awesome guide and super thorough --- appreciate the amount of time it probably took to get it published on youtube as soon as you did! thanks!
Great guide, thank you. One thing that appears missing (I may be wrong) is the ability to focus on just the current mission in the heads up. I’m a newbie and my scanner whether on or not shows the locations of multiple objectives so I haven’t a clue where to go or where I am. I keep trying to memorise the layout of Atlantis for example. I like authenticy to be on max, so I don’t expect to just be at the destination instantly. One nice thing about the dialogues is that they are relatable. Their clearly has been thought into ‘relationships’ in constructing them. I like to think we’re at the pioneering stages of future game playing possibilities and this is a step in the right direction
I am a hoarder and I love how you explain starfield thank you so much you have helped me in so many different ways thank you thank you thank you 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Hi, I am brand new to your channel and to Starfield as well. I did make it all the way through. We play on Xbox series x. My fiance has been playing for almost a year now. I found your video very helpful, especially the skills portion. This game is very complex and very thorough. I appreciate the time you took to make this video.🎉
1:34:46 For piloting you can just use the simulator to get ship kills. It counts. It's located at the UC MAST building in New Atlantis on Jemison in the Alpha Centauri system.
A thing to add, piloting and fitness are both super easy to level. You don't need to take them into consideration as a background choice because you can literally level them up right-quick. Like.... literally just sprint back and forth with a heavy load each time you get a point for fitness. Takes 20-30 minutes to get from level 0 to level 4 if you've got 4 point saved up. Same thing with piloting: save up four points, go to the UC building on Jemison, and then farm up some digital kills in the simulator. Super easy to get both of those. Fitness was the first skill I got maxed out, then piloting. Background is more about flavor text in different conversations to boost the roleplay aspect of the game. Though... I'll note that I feel like the combat medic, at the very least, could have had a few more dialog options. Like with the UC terrormorph questline there was this thing where you could lie about a military related profession. But... what if taking the combat medic background made that specific piece of dialog just a regular option rather than a lie? Maybe your character WAS a combat medic shock trooper and now they're retired?
Hey if you are having trouble finding ships to defeat to level up your piloting skill join the uc vanguard and do the simulator mission, this is a repeatable mission even after you complete it the ships you destroy give progress towards skill progression
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I've watched most of your ESO videos and you always produce useful content that is easy to understand...they really helped me when I started playing ESO. I'm looking forward to your Starfield content as I start this game. Congratulations on the song. Hopefully, it's just the beginning of a long and successful journey.
The one thing that frustrated me on this game is not knowing how to dock at a station or ship. I now know you need to be 500 meters from the object and tap the ( I think it was the "E" key) to bring up options to Hail or Dock. 😉
Thank you so much. Great video to watch and has explained lots of things that I didn't know about. I love this game and will enjoy it even more thanks to you
Made it through, downloading starfield now. Cant wait to start exploring the universe. Thank you for your time and effort, i subscribed and am looking forward to the content that you release!
Very nice comprehensive guide. I'm waiting probably another year to get the game, waiting for the price to be cut in half or so LOL. But when I finally buy it, these tips will be very helpful.

And in Neon there is always smuggle for you to take.
a tip for anyone stuck needing to level piloting quickly, go do the vanguard training and keep doing the flight training until your maxed level, killing ships in the simulation counts towards the skill
yea, i stayed a Recruit till i maxed out my piloting skill in the sim :)
You legend I love you sm rn😂
If you're doing this 1. Do not go past lv4 in the sim. Let yourself get wiped out aka the sim ship blown up at lv5.

@dayneh2 it's the faction quest line where you join UC Vanguard, I *think* it starts with Keeping the Peace, don't remember if that's a mission title you can see straight off or whether there's an activity listed to ask about the vanguard or what
Pro tip: Buy digipicks and med/trauma packs every time you stop at a vendor. They’ll stack up fast and you’ll never be short on heals or lockpicks 🤙🏼
I'm 20 hours in and have looted all the digipicks and med packs I'll ever need, no need to spend my hard stolen credits on such trivialities.
Almost the only thing you can spend money on in this game. Trash game. Feels like oblivion without the great story and world. Soulless

I’ve never watched one of these videos before until I started playing Starfield. I have played through the game once at this stage and watching this has given me so many tips.
I really appreciate the time you put into this. I’m only a few hours in and have enjoyed the game so far. The biggest issue I have is the lack of tutorials. For instance, the lock pick system. There were no explanations in game on how this worked. I found boxes before digipicks, and tried to open them for a few minutes before I realized what was needed. And then when I got one, it again took me a good bit of time to figure out how it worked. Several systems that you discussed here, I had no hint at them being available, like crew placement. I think they really dropped the ball here. So your video has been hugely helpful.
Yeah it definitely throws you into the deep end without a lot of help on some of these topics haha. Glad I could help!
Thanks LG!!! Your videos along with other people's videos caused me to delete the game I started and begin anew with reason and purpose and saved me countless grief, heartache and time in the process. Making way more enjoyable. Again, thank you!!
Hey man just picked up the game yesterday and I'm hooked already, as per usual thanks for the insane amount of research and effort you put into these beginners guides you truly go above and beyond to cover everything in these games, an excellent and extremely informative vid, I'll always visit your channel whenever a new game comes out in the future, hands down best guides on RUclips.👍
Brilliant guide that explains enough without spoiling the essence of discovery and exploration. It's the only guide new players need.
Great help as always and I love that you didn't show spoilers. You gave me just enough info to get familiar with the systems which was all I wanted. Thanks Lucky, you're the best!
Glad to help!
I really appreciate you spending time to do this video! I love Fallout and Elder Scrolls, but when I first started Starfield, I was very underwhelmed. After watching your video, and some other ones I have came across, it has renewed my interest in this game. I am starting to enjoy it so much more! Thank you so much!
thats awesome to hear! :D
Dude your amazing. Thanks for the video. Good work and very informative, 50 hours in and i learned a hell of a lot from this. Thx lucky
Starfield is the game I've been dreaming of for years man. It's been years since I've been this addicted to a game, I love it.
Thank you so much for this - I'm only 40 minutes in and you've covered more info than anyone else I've watched today who was covering Starfield. Edited to add -- I am now going to be a major empire builder with all the outpost stuff - absolutely amazing.
I'm glad the hard work doesn't go unnoticed!
I like taking my time through a game, particularly one as explorative as Starfield. Short games, or those I breeze through quickly don't make me feel like it's money well spent. Btw...this is how you make a guide! Excellent work!
Watched the whole thing, loved it. Was so confused with some of the mechanics of this game, now i feel i have all the tools i need to have a fun and successful playthrough. Thanks!
hey that's awesome, that's what I love to hear! cheers!
This has been as useful a how-to guide as I have seen for any game. Thank you.
This is an INCREDIBLE video. So much info, so well organised. Can't thank you enough!
If you save 3 skill points you can max piloting on new atlantis in the pilot simulator. Start uc vanguard quest with tuala and at end of hallway is a flight simulator. Just keep goong in and killing ships and leaving before tier 6, then go back in, rinse and repeat, it also works if you save like 10 skill points and it can level any ship skill like shields, engines, ect
You didn't mention Stealth!!
It's important to unlock the stealth meter so you can even know if you're detected or not. Very important to know about!!
Also Scavenging is particularly useful when you get into the NG+ aspect of the game, and a great thing to grab early.
Alright, I’m actually 50+ hours into the game but really wanted the authentic figure it out for myself experience before I started checking out the community. Awesome tips, scan fast travel (the gaming experience is some much better mid game). Skills - targeting, jump pack and starship design (learned about piloting the hard way). Also ship building (only can have one grav drive and reactor). I haven’t tried to build an outpost but once I’m done building a ship to the level I want I’ll try that. The follow up questions this brought up were:
1. Social Optimization (did manipulation from Raijin + maxed persuasion and it helps so much but curious about the other options)
2. Best ships, and parts (weapon, drive for each ship design level and class)
3. Outpost - protecting it, what materials to optimize and what practical things can you put (mission boards, mod benches etc. and on which planets)
4. Best missions (outside of main) so all factions ( I think there are 4 UC, Raijin, Freestar, Crimson Fleet but I hope there are more - super fun)
5. Way more detail about crew - who are the best to follow you, who are the best for ships and outposts etc. can more than one person follow you.
Looking forward to the rest of your videos!
I’m constantly yelling at the the TV(at Sarah) to stop commenting on all the junk I am picking up and carrying.
This guide convinced me to really give starfield a new chance. It showed it really is a bethesda game. And it's flaws can be shadawed by it's strenghts. Thankyou for your positive tone!
Fantastic guide. I’m sitting here at work anxious to get off so I can play and watching this helped make time go by faster. Thanks so much for all the information! I’m HYPED!
Thanks! May your work day pass quickly!
*YOU CAN GRAV JUMP TO AVOID SCANS*
If you grav jump to a zone and you start getting scanned (for organs, etc.), hit your map button,pick a location that doesn't scan (some black market spots) . Once you select a spot, *PUT POWER TO YOUR GRAV JUMP* and you'll jump out in like .5 seconds. Hope this helps someone!
Perfect guide thank you for putting the time and effort into this, we all appreciate how well done this was made
A tip. Go the social route and grab leadership and crew command. Last rank of Lead doubles bonuses of companions on ground and in ship that they buff you with. The last rank of Command gives 6 crew on ship.
Fantastic guide! thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Starting to play the game today and watched the full guide! very helpful
A little tip about storing your crafting materials....... In the basement of the Lodge, there are all the crafting tables. Right next to the research station in the center of the room, there is a box with infinite storage as well. I have found it to be the perfect spot to store crafting materials when not using them. When you need to craft or research you can just use take all, do your business, then store what you did not use back in the box for later. That way you don't have to go all the way up to your safe, then walk down to the basement. Also, when you have a massive amount of materials on your ship and do not want to walk all through Jemison transporting them to the Lodge, you can put them in your inventory, then travel directly to the Lodge from your ship if you choose the Lodge when landing.
Great video for beginners. I would like to see more related base and outpost building. I noticed you did not "link" your extractor to the storage but instead manually moved it. I saw a stream of someone who linked their extractor to storage and then storage to the structure that has incoming and outgoing storage on it that allows for access across multiple outposts. Really interested in seeing a more in-depth guide on how all the outpost and base mechanics work. Thanks and keep up the great vids.
Thanks thats a great idea!
Some nice tips I hadn't realised, especially with the fast travel - I got early access so I have about 10 hours atm. Gopher tested the distance you could run from your ship and it worked out at 3km in any direction, so unless you move your ship, that's your lot!
The most thorough and detailed guide on RUclips. This helped me tremendously. Subbed and liked for amazing content. Thank you sir.
Welcome aboard!
You sir are the legend, these are not only great to watch but keeps me informed from the audio whilst I grind out my studies.
So keen to jump back in once I’m back home. ❤️🔥❤️🔥
You did it again Lucky! I find myself always looking forward to these really in depth guides you make, thank you so much!
This has been a very thorough video, as are all your others. I'm just passively listening to it as I'm getting ready to hop into my third NG+.
Dude thanks for this. Absolutely essential for beginners like myself. 👍
I don’t have the game. But this guide was awesome and now I want it. Damn priorities
Got this out so fast and its so complete, wonderful work, thank you so much!
my pleasure! MUCH more to come!
I made it to the end. The ship building stuff helped so much. That part of the game is daunting
Amazing vid! Just finished watching all of it before the early release! Feel a lot more informed going into the game now! Thank you for the great content!
New to your content, but after watching many, this is by far the best and most comprehensive guide I have found - subscribed.
This is a great video Lucky!! You and Desh did a great job with this!! Love all the research that went into this! I'll make sure to revisit this video once I pick up the game!! ❤❤
Just getting into Starfield and this video was extensive. I will definitely be referencing this guide over and over again as I play it.
Enjoy! It's a great game!
Thanks for the video - very informative. Just started on my grand adventure and I’m really enjoying it so far thanks to your tips. Looking for the moon made of cheese but it remains elusive 😂
Phenomenal video, much appreciated. Detailed and clear! I’ve found that starfield has a steep learning curve and you just cut it down a little. Thanks!
Absolutely fantastic video. I can’t imagine how long it took you to make it. I’ll be referring to this one for a long time.
For now I’m keeping everything in a little storage box downstairs in the lodge that also has infinite storage. Way easier than walking back and forth from the crafting tables to my bedroom lol
Just so you know you can fight basically an unlimited amount of ships using the flight simulator used for the UC testing in New Atlantis. Destroying those simulated enemy ships count for challenges.
That's amazing. Do you have to join vanguard to do it or anything?
@@sicecko you don’t have to. They have you use it for a test to get accepted into the UC. Once you complete the flight sim, you can come back and retake it as many times as you want.
Are you a Teacher of sorts ?? Your
Loving the DETAILs in your Video ...WELL DONE..
This is one of the Best on youtube.
Been playing for 3 days now....having a ton of fun
Do you have a video on Basic Building of Mining resources on planets ??
I am having difficulty understanding how , and where this is done.
24:43...Before I land on a civilized planet, I like to TRADE /SELL all my MISCELLENOUS stuff with other ships in orbit of planets...so my inventory is emptied, for other things when exploring the next planet.
31:04..I don't have the Skill called *PERSUASION* ...but when I where a Clothing that has a bonus on "+5% Persuasion" , It does the job...
I like wearing clothing that adds +5 to Carry load on my person
34:07 ..when I score an illegal contraband...I always take it to the Wolf System = Den StarStation...and sell it to the Trade place there...
I haven't found any other place that does this, yet...
35:28...If you scan the resources of planets....you get a notepad for it...these sell for alot of money at different places.
43:20...I've found alot of ship repair kits, when I am in a planets orbit and hail a ship and trade / buy *Ship Repair Kits*
I haven't found a planet , yet, that sells these.
Love your content! Help me out in ESO Big Time! Keep up the great work! Excited about this one 😎👍🏻
Made it to the end, and gotta say thank you for all the time u put into playing this great game for us to learn from your experience
“32 days passed, 5 hours slept” everyone playing starfield 😂
I have watched this video 3 full times, and I have about 50 hours in to the game already. Still helpful
Definitely going to leave a sub and like on this vid. Between this and your BG3 guide I’m looking forward to more beginner friendly guides as newer games come out. Great job man 👍🏾
Awesome, thank you!
Hey Lucky, been watching some of your Diablo videos and was pumped to see you putting out Starfield content. One major tip for you that might save your piloting error, I have not tested this but have with another companion skill so I think it will work here to, as long as you assign a companion to the right location his/her perk will light up, giving you the equivalent of having that perk unlocked. I believe it is Sam Coe that has four ranks in piloting so as long as you have him assigned to your ship, you should be able to pilot class c, I don't know how this will work with stealing ships, but it seems to work for his payload perk which gives 2 ranks equal to 20 percent increase in cargo capacity, which I can say with no points in payload my ship has 20 percent increased cargo. Like I said I haven't fully tested this so don't yell at me if this turns out to be false lol
What an amazing effort and guide. This was great.
Excellent guide, will keep in my playlist for reference purposes, cannot wait to start playing Starfield. Subscribed cheers
This was a fantastic video and extremely helpful. Thank you so much! Thoroughly enjoyed it :)
heck ya, thanks!
I made it through. I am loving Starfield! My grandson and my best friend are loving it too!
Awesome! So glad to hear it!
As always, Lucky. I appreciate the time you take to make these beginner guides. Thanks!
MY MAN, thank you!
Oh ghost lick lick. 😂
Instant sub. This is honestly the best guide I’ve ever seen for a game. Thanks for this one!
SO EXCITED FOR THIS GAME! and ty for the shoutout!
Tell me u got it
@@generaltim494 it’s on my Steam wishlist!
Well I wouldn’t be where I’m at in ESO without Lucky’s guides so I already know I’m getting some of the best gaming instruction online.
this is an awesome guide and super thorough --- appreciate the amount of time it probably took to get it published on youtube as soon as you did! thanks!
Thanks so much. This was the most helpful non-spoiler guide ever! Much appreciated!
Just got Starfield, your video is informative and helpful. Made it to the end. Enjoyed it. Thanks!
I'm downloading starfield now and your video is really helpful. Thank you!! Can't wait to play it!!
Great guide, thank you. One thing that appears missing (I may be wrong) is the ability to focus on just the current mission in the heads up. I’m a newbie and my scanner whether on or not shows the locations of multiple objectives so I haven’t a clue where to go or where I am. I keep trying to memorise the layout of Atlantis for example. I like authenticy to be on max, so I don’t expect to just be at the destination instantly. One nice thing about the dialogues is that they are relatable. Their clearly has been thought into ‘relationships’ in constructing them. I like to think we’re at the pioneering stages of future game playing possibilities and this is a step in the right direction
There doh !
I am a hoarder and I love how you explain starfield thank you so much you have helped me in so many different ways thank you thank you thank you 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Happy to help! Holders unite!
Hi, I am brand new to your channel and to Starfield as well. I did make it all the way through. We play on Xbox series x. My fiance has been playing for almost a year now. I found your video very helpful, especially the skills portion. This game is very complex and very thorough. I appreciate the time you took to make this video.🎉
Welcome to the channel! It's a great game for sure!
1:34:46 For piloting you can just use the simulator to get ship kills. It counts. It's located at the UC MAST building in New Atlantis on Jemison in the Alpha Centauri system.
Now an esential channel for these massive games.
A thing to add, piloting and fitness are both super easy to level. You don't need to take them into consideration as a background choice because you can literally level them up right-quick. Like.... literally just sprint back and forth with a heavy load each time you get a point for fitness. Takes 20-30 minutes to get from level 0 to level 4 if you've got 4 point saved up. Same thing with piloting: save up four points, go to the UC building on Jemison, and then farm up some digital kills in the simulator. Super easy to get both of those. Fitness was the first skill I got maxed out, then piloting.
Background is more about flavor text in different conversations to boost the roleplay aspect of the game. Though... I'll note that I feel like the combat medic, at the very least, could have had a few more dialog options. Like with the UC terrormorph questline there was this thing where you could lie about a military related profession. But... what if taking the combat medic background made that specific piece of dialog just a regular option rather than a lie? Maybe your character WAS a combat medic shock trooper and now they're retired?
Damn, I wish I saw this! I am only a couple of hours in, but this is the first video I’ve seen that covers character creation. Well done!
Dude, if you slowed down the voice bt 10 or 20% this would be a 10/10 preview for sure.... my opinion. Nailed the content!! Amazing job dude!
Ya know you can change the playback speed on YT?
Just skip IGN and come straight here for reviews and help nowadays. Top, top content!!
ayy thanks for the kind words!
@@LuckyGhost thank you for you’re commitment bro!
Hey if you are having trouble finding ships to defeat to level up your piloting skill join the uc vanguard and do the simulator mission, this is a repeatable mission even after you complete it the ships you destroy give progress towards skill progression
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I've watched most of your ESO videos and you always produce useful content that is easy to understand...they really helped me when I started playing ESO. I'm looking forward to your Starfield content as I start this game. Congratulations on the song. Hopefully, it's just the beginning of a long and successful journey.
I appreciate that!
Great guide, informative and insightful without spoiling the game. Also liked the plug for how editors song, she looks amazing 🤩
The one thing that frustrated me on this game is not knowing how to dock at a station or ship. I now know you need to be 500 meters from the object and tap the ( I think it was the "E" key) to bring up options to Hail or Dock. 😉
Thank you so much. Great video to watch and has explained lots of things that I didn't know about. I love this game and will enjoy it even more thanks to you
your eso & now starfield guides make you one of my favourite creators on youtube ♥️
Made it to the end! Fantastic breakdown, thanks for taking the time!
A tip from a fellow explorer.
When you're over encumbered you can max out your walking speed by pulling out your weapon and aiming.
Hella views barely any likes on a detailed and in depth video. Give this dude some love👌🏼
Made it through, downloading starfield now. Cant wait to start exploring the universe. Thank you for your time and effort, i subscribed and am looking forward to the content that you release!
Very nice comprehensive guide. I'm waiting probably another year to get the game, waiting for the price to be cut in half or so LOL. But when I finally buy it, these tips will be very helpful.
This is exactly why I subscribe to you LG - detailed and awesome guides for all my favorite MMO's. Keep up the great work!
so glad to hear you're enjoying them!
