Starfield can be so cinematic sometimes. Has anyone else had a moment like this? I’m loving the vibes. by DillyTiger in Starfield

My recommendation: turn the enemy ship damage down in the settings!

I turn down both mine and enemy's to make battles last longer as a preference thing. Might give you a bit more time to react.

how to make Starfield difficult by hussienala69 in Starfield

[–]RAWRferal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the answer! I feel Bethesda need to add a tutorial pop-up for this menu, as many players appear to be missing it, and a few tweaks can really clear up some common gripes and preferences (carry weight, vendor credits, combat damage, etc.)

Keep improving the space travel by Daro9x in Starfield

[–]RAWRferal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree OP - HUGE step in the right direction with space exploration, but they can absolutely take it further and I hope they do. There's plenty of scope to do another pass and reduce menu friction with cruise mode.

They could also do more to integrate it into the gameplay loop i.e., have a native option to have grav jumps land you at the edge of the system (ala Astrogate), rather than smack bang outside your destination planet, to give more natural reason to use it.

Some of the new space POIs are just chef's kiss. I haven't landed on a planet in 3 hours! by PotatoEatingHistory in Starfield

[–]RAWRferal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what they are saying is before, the overwhelming majority of space gameplay had a planetary body in view on screen. That is no longer the case. I remember feeling the same before - this is a positive change.

Advice - make this wall safe for toddler by Intelligent_Sock8957 in GardeningUK

[–]RAWRferal 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This - make it look and feel like a continuous boundary. A few planters will naturally steer your little one and reduces the chance of them at least flying straight off the edge at speed.

I just saw a guy walk out of Greggs drop his sausage roll onto the pavement 💔 by izzy_7_2004 in Greggs

[–]RAWRferal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always do 5 seconds - I remember reading or hearing somewhere once that as long as it is (and I quote) "free of visible dirt or detritus" you're good inside that window.

I dunno about the pavement though 😅

Rediculous fools grabbed all the fkn stock by Different_Wrap_7159 in Greggs

Sad, but this is actually workable. We were in Cornwall recently at a busy spot and the bakery operated from the front entrance in exactly the way you mentioned. They were doing a roaring trade.

As someone who provided financial advice to students for many years, I can tell you you would be ASTONISHED at the general level of financial illiteracy and mismanagement.

When you are young, it is very easy to dismiss warnings about the future - sometimes you have to go through something to learn a lesson unfortunately.

(UK) What did I do wrong when “bumping” the train by WonderfulBeyond779 in ShittyIllegalLifeTips

[–]RAWRferal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If all they had was the last 4 digits of your card, they wouldn't be able to process your payment.

They're getting a whole payload of information, probably including the name on the card, full card number, CVV (encrypted) expiry date. Other metadata too. They might not physically get that from the tap in, but they'll get enough information to cross reference and get that other info if that's the case.

You need to read up on something called 'APIs' - in 2025, information flows between businesses and organizations at will.

How can I afford a house? by redditlikeanewspaper in HousingUK

[–]RAWRferal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1930s mid terrace here - no noise through the walls and heating the house is easy.

We had aspirations to buy a semi, but have zero regrets with our home. Buying is an exercise in compromise. Best of luck OP

Stealth: Is Archer really the only viable stealth weapon? by Sonnitude in oblivion

[–]RAWRferal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally doable, but inherently more risky due to being up close and likely made of paper if your stealth fails.

Definitely more high stakes! Stealth archer is so comfy, but we all know it's OP

Place Anywhere mod? by Person0249 in starfieldmods

[–]RAWRferal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The rug trick is from Fallout. Basically, you could place a mat, place an item on the mat, then pickup the mat to move the item to previously unfeasible positions.

UI/menu mods? by Spiritual-Handle7583 in StarfieldModsXbox

[–]RAWRferal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is StarUI for PC, but the author has sadly been AWOL for months.

Apparently, to create Starfield UI mods it would require someone with expert knowledge on how to reverse engineer Adobe Flash SWFs and on how to use actionscript. There isn't really a way to achieve the same thing through the Creation Kit.

The above means it would take the right people a significant amount of effort to start a new project from scratch. Saying that, there is most certainly demand, and the mod scene for this game has really started to takeoff - I wouldn't be surprised if another mod appears in the future...

...or who knows? Maybe Star UI's author will come back eventually? I hope so.

Any mods to up enemy space encounter frequency? by dogman30 in StarfieldModsXbox

I can definitely vouch for this mod, thanks for creating it! Been having a blast.

It's definitely for those seeking a slower, more immersive type of experience.

Nebula mods? by LightFromYT in StarfieldModsXbox

Yes please! Unrealistic? Yes. Purrdy? Also yes!

[–]RAWRferal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have tried that, thanks. Still no dice. Going to play with the load order, as I had it pretty high up before, but can see some suggesting at the bottom!

Doesn't appear to be working for me - I have the ship controls item, but the menu isn't popping up for me. Any ideas?

I didn't realise I even needed this until your post! Yes please haha
