[QUOTE="Admin, post: 61787, member: 1"] Starfield’s biggest update yet is on the way, with Bethesda promising to bring more than 100 tweaks in the coming weeks. The RPG developer [URL='https://x.com/BethesdaStudios/status/1745850216471752751?s=20'][U]teased the allegedly gargantuan update[/U][/URL] on X/Twitter, explaining that Steam Beta players will be able to dive in come January 17. A full rollout for other players will then arrive two weeks later. The thread announcing the “biggest Starfield update yet” only provides a few teases regarding what to expect. Fixes for some well-known quest bugs are on the way, for example, as the team promises to address issues with Eye of the Storm and Into the Unknown. Stability and graphics improvements are on the way, too, with Bethesda including a [URL='https://x.com/BethesdaStudios/status/1745850223027478618?s=20'][U]before-and-after post[/U][/URL] that shows enhanced textures, lighting, and shadows. Today’s teases don’t reveal too much about what exactly is on the way, but Starfield explorers can expect full patch notes to arrive when the update makes its way to Steam Beta. We’ll have to wait until then to see just how much the improvements will impact the experience. "Other fixes and improvements include sun disk geometry, planet ring shadows, bulldozed objects reappearing when returning to an Outpost, ship hatches marked inaccessible, and another fix for asteroids following ships," another [URL='https://x.com/BethesdaStudios/status/1745850226202583217?s=20']post from Bethesda[/URL] says. After revealing Starfield in 2018, Bethesda finally took fans to its original sci-fi world late last year. To no one’s surprise, gamers quickly took to the developer’s latest sprawling adventure, with Microsoft announcing that the project had amassed [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/starfield-has-now-had-over-12-million-players-phil-spencer-says'][U]more than 12 million players in early December[/U][/URL]. However, its post-launch plans haven’t been without issue.
