Bethesday is genius. They've made the same game for 20 years, with a fresh coat of paint each time. People bought one of those games for nearly ten years across a dozen platforms. Today you have the glorious example of their newest iteration of that same game. StarRim. Sky Field. Whatever you want to call it, doesn't matter . . . it is the same game you've played since before oblivion.
Why despite all the previous experience we have with Bethesda Open World RPGs, are people surprised when the games are buggy and broken on release? Because that's *never* happened before right?
thats why they are complete garbage then.. makes sense.. this game literally disgusted me. I felt disrespected by it. It was exactly fallout but just in space. RE. TARD.DED

Presumably when the store chest is in a different location from the NPC, that's got to be an indication that the NPC has been moved from it's initial location during development. You wouldn't need to move the chest unless the geometry was altered.
If you have a bounty with UC and then run to board your ship, the guards will also board your ship. But while they spawn, you can then kill them and their corpse will always remain on your ship as "decoration". They also have around 160 storage capacity so having 5 of them would make your ship the biggest container in the game...

EDIT: As of the latest patch, all chests hidden under the map are gone :( Just a few notes on these exploits. The New Atlantis chest is easier to get to from the Commercial district. Go around Galbank and up the stairs to the left. Follow the building around to the left on the roof, do some parkour to a roof with tree roots on it, fall through a wall, do a 180 and go forward until you get to the cliff edge, fall down and go right towards the starport. There is a chest under the Stroud-Eklund staryard that has 160k rather than the standard 72k. You have to jump through a display wall to reach it, but there is no floor underneath so you have to boostpack across to the chest or get teleported back onto the map. For xp farming go to Strix-I in the Strix system (near the top right of the galaxy map). The creatures there are flying jellyfish that move slowly and travel in huge herds.
Another perfectly balanced non-exploit is to become allies with the Crimson Pirates, any randomly generated bases of theirs you find will be free to loot and none of them will be at all suspicious if you shot them in stealth.
There are encounters with spacers where you can find notes indicating they used to be pirates but occupied derelict industrial sites to set up honest jobs. They only attack YOU out of fear you're the law. I felt kind of bummed since, by the time i read the note, I'd killed them all already.
There is also a contraband chest like this in the police station of Gagarin Landing on Gagarin in the Alpha Centauri system that restocks. The Neon one is better to exploit though because there's a Trade Authority right there.
This is the kind of thing that makes it worth reading CZcams comments. All the political bullshit, and crazy conspiracy theories, and shitposts about megalodon being alive are worth it for gold like this.

Press E to select the module. This will close the list and allow you to move the module freely for placement. 4. But there's a twist! If you press W or S, even with the module list closed, you can still move up and down in the list, choosing a different module for placement... including the greyed-out options! So just work out which locked module you want, and place it down. The game will not stop you doing this, therefore, it is perfectly legal and not even slightly cheating. 5.

Simpler way to get the vendors loot is by spawning in the commercial district following the path straight with the big building on your left until you see a point with 3 pointy trees and one flat tree. Hop up on the flat tree and you’ll see a branch attached to the building, hop on that. Climb up and on the corner of the roof you’re now on you’ll see a black grate vent sort of thing and you can hop through that straight under the map and find a few chests down there. Then go to Venus and sleep for 10 hours and come back and do it again. (If you explain this at some point I’m sorry I commented this 45 seconds into the video)
I was a tad bit surprised you never talked about the fun shipbuilding glitch that lets you build whatever you want, even if it’s locked. First, get very close to your ship in shipbuilder so that whatever item you select will clip into the ship and be highlighted as ‘Red - Can’t be placed’. Attempt to place it anyways and the menu disappears and you can move the part away from the ship, and using up/down, select your forbidden part. Easy as can be, and you can get all the good ship bits without all the levels in the skills. Still need piloting lvled for Ship class B and C to fly, but other than that? If it’s in the shipwrights builder, you can glitch any piece in the category.
If you put points into crafting you can equip the double barrel shotgun (coachman) with the hornets nest mod which makes the shotgun shoot multiple grenades at once and if you upgrade ballistics, shotgun and explosive perks as well you will get the most powerful explosive weapon in the game.
@@abdullahyusriabdulkarim7100 i'll say what i always say when i accidentally kill innocents with my war crime of a weapon fuck em. also sounds great - doing a crafting focused setup atm without much combat skills, next one was planned to be a serpent's embrace jetpacker dropping bombs on foes anyway. though, you also need rank 1 in special projects, not just rank 3 in weapon engineering. so, not a 7 point endeavor, but 13 points.
I'm surprised you didnt find the Big Bang. It's an energy shotgun with zero spread that does around 100 physical and 500 energy damage before any perks. You can upgrade that with perks and skills to do several thousands of damage without having to sneak, shooting across half a map.
@paths7969 I got lucky and found a 3 star legendary big bang. It was the 2nd big bang I found. But if you want better luck, House Vu'urun (idk how to spell them) enemies tend to carry particle weapons.
i wonder if my game is bugged or something, because nothing rarely seems to do more than 100 dmg and is usually high rate of fire, 15 damage *at best*.
finally, the level of exploration and freedom we were promised, all we had to do was play the game exactly as intended because it's perfectly balanced with no bugs or exploits whatsoever, certainly no "out-of-bounds" shenanigans to see here
Pro tip, while in space combat, if you are ever getting overwhelmed. Simply stand up out of your pilots chair. And all of your systems will continue recharging while everything stops targeting you. I used it to cheese the UC Vigilance fight. So its definitely very useful indeed.
Crimson pirates: Ah ha!! You're as good as dead!!! The Spiffing Brit: Hang on, now-- I need to stop for a spot of freshly brewed tea. [Gets up from the pilot's / captain's chair] Crimson pirates: Uh ... right, off you go. Come on, lads, it's time for a break. [Ceases firing, heads into the mess hall]
I'm playing Starfield for the first time as I'm watching this and ironically It crash after finishing character creation and then again as I try to get back into it. Shaping up to be a GREAT GAME!!
@@thespiffingbritI have no points in combat perks but through modification I achieve the same kind of damage numbers you do while also having a lot of fun perks
Spiff I discovered that you can easily reset detection to hidden by spamming 1st to 3rd person in the mouse wheel. you can basically walk in front of them as long as your scrolling up and down going to 1st and 3rd persion.
I'm sure you've seen it by now Spiff but you don't need to parkour all around the map to get that 72k crate of credits in New Atlantis. You can literally phase through the wall at the bottom of the platform by pulling back to 3rd person, jumping, blocking with a melee weapon, and pressing forward.
When they were designing merchants in this game. There had to be at least one person on the team that muttered under their breath "Spiff is going to have a field day with this game"
I honestly believe it's somewhat intentional at this point. There's no reason it has to be under the vendor, it could be a 1cm wide invisible box 50km above the map and it would work the exact same
Oh and something you didnt pick up : look from legendary enemies get decided when they die. so clear out normal enemies and leave legendary enemies last, get them to low HP and either they will start crazling or you can use EM weapon to stun them. Then just drop a quicksave with your gun aimed at their head and start savescumming for the legendary weapons of your dreams
Beth games are almost made to be exploited. Morrowind even had an immortal demigod NPC who challenged you to kill him, and had a unique death animation if you managed to break the game and do it.
Easiest way under the terrain is blocking with a melee weapon mid jump into the wall of the landing area near the security checkpoint building. Blocking mid jump makes your character teleport forward a few feet. Also for the chest to replenish, land on venus sleep 24 hours (ends up being like 1200 hours or some stupid shit like that) and money's back. Also the ecklund stroud staryard has a super easy chest for another 72k
Different infinite money trick if the other one ever gets fixed: Hab Junk Items. Any time you change ANYTHING in the ship editor beyond the basic upgrade interface (i.e. using the parts editor) then ALL the junk items in EVERY hab unit are put into the ship's cargo hold, even if there isn't room for them. This happens even if you just rearrange some windows and weapon mountings without buying (paying for) anything. Key is, all habs come with Misc items artisinally scattered through them, and when the game goes "ok they just changed something, all items into the cargo" it THEN generates NEW items to populate the habs with. See where this is going? INFINITE VENDOR TRASH LOOP. There's even a Taiyo 1x1 that has a crapload of Erdbrau and Superfood Paste as part of its clutter. I've got a large B class ship I've been working on and I just completely emptied out a trade ship's credits offloading the stacks of notebooks and note pads and pens and pots empty Terrabrew cups and TP I've built up from it. I wonder if any of these modules have a kitchen that has tomatoes sitting out in it so I can really start production on a supply of Grandpa's Meatloaf. For that matter, I wonder if any hab in the entire game besides the Frontier's unique one has a dimmadamn cooking station to begin with...
The biggest exploit I found was the ability to buy ship parts that would normally be locked until you have enough piloting or ship designer level. Basically just go into the builder and select the last part you can buy and make sure it's highlighted in red as you select it (it needs to clip into your ship), then you can press the "down" key (S or arrow keys on keyboard) and it will select the part below that's locked, keep pressing down until you have the part you want and then you can just place it like a normal part.
The most OP power you can get is the slow down time. It slows time for everyone but you for like 12 seconds, which is quite powerful in itself. But it glitches out quite often (if you can find out what makes it glitch out that would be interesting) in a way that it also affects you partially. Meaning instead of lasting for 12 seconds it then lasts for 12 minutes. It also slows down your shooting so you can't spam trigger, but switching weapons makes the weapon you switch to fire instantly, so basically can switch between two weapons and fire insanely fast. Reload runs at normal speed. At which point you can run through an area and essentially kill everything while no one can move but you. Only downside is that if you are done with your deeds and the effect is still running you have to wait till it wears off, can't change area or fast travel either while it is still running.
Probably because of the gravity of the planet. Since if you wait in the game, There's a local time and universal time. Like the interstellar movie explain time dilation, heavier the gravity, the slower the time become. Time power probably stop time for 12 seconds in universal time, so if you go to a planet with lower gravity then effects also stretch to match 12 second in universal time
@@rahmadrenaldi2624that's not how the local/universal time works. The local time is how long a planet takes to spin on it's axis once relative to the star it's orbiting and dividing that into 24 "local time hours". The universal time is just tracking time as it would be tracked on earth. Time dilation is another thing entirely and is moreso about travelling really fast causes the person travelling to experience time much quicker than observers would.
*The most cost effective and safe Stealth builds tend to be very slow. When i was a kid I used to swear by stealth builds until I realised I was taking like quadruple the time and being bored to death as I did it. You also have to put a lot of perk investment into very specific skills, and that starts to make it restrictive. A run and gunner can always take an occasional stealth shot, but a sniper can rarely go guns-blazing
Keep in mind the armor and weapons have a upgrade sequence in the names ( Basic - Calibrated - Refined - Advanced) I remember it with a mnemonic, Basic crap really annoys me. So if you can find an advanced sniper and a legendary with armor pen it can get even more insane!
mustard gas is easy bro, just pee in a bottle of bleach and seal the lid tight, leave it somewhere for about 2 months or so and then either throw it and the pressure will make it pop or unseal the lid with a gas mask on all you need for the actual chemical is ammonia and chlorine, ammonia is free in pee and bleach has chlorine but if you just do it straight away it will be tiny affects but leaving it for a while increases its affects 😉
FYI: Weapon damage is based on the weapons tier. This includes Normal, Calibrated, Refined, and Advanced, with each dealing far more damage than the last. You were using 'normal' tier weapons for the alien hunting.
It seemed like the hunting weapon was chosen for cheap ammo and rate of fire for just slogging through the numbers. It was probably just in his inventory and worked!
Man, I'm going to avoid spoilers, sit down, play this game carefully, enjoy the experience for myself. *Spiff posts a starfield video* Welp, nevermind that.
@@thespiffingbrit well, I posted my comment too quickly, and you did mention that. ^_^ Though you almost spoiled your own video by saying you didn't spoil anything in this CZcams comment, Spiff. Fortunately I couldn't tear myself away from the majesty of Todd Howard's genius until now.
Lol. Although I never try your exploits, I love your videos and salute you for the amount of time it must take you. You are simply a Devs worst nightmare :)
There's a much easier trader chest in Akila City in the Cheyenne system. Once you enter the town (after the entrance corridor) there are two puddles, the smaller of the two allows access the items in Shepards General Goods
@@losmosquitos1108 If you're going to the trouble of no-clipping anyway, why not just give yourself as many credits as you want? They're both just console commands
It's always a pleasure seeing you liberating the locals and relaxing on your own safari planet. I can't believe the vender chests are still a thing. Next time Howard should have them floating above a void.
@@PootisPenserPow The engine has no relevance to where they place chests during level creation. Also, Creation Engine 2 is so far removed from an engine even pre-dating gamebryo.
In my mind, Todd knew that Spiff was going to break his new jewel of a game, and he put the tea shop in the game to try to distract/pacify Spiff from breaking the game
What a brilliant observation. I actually can't think of any other reason its in there. We Americans literally don't put tea into anything we create, unless - we're specifically pandering to a brittish.
From the moment I saw the perfectly lootable vendor chests I knew that Todd kept that " Skyrim feature" for the Spiffin Brit :) It probably was more work to make visible vendor chests like that, in Akila city you can even get to these chest by just crouching down in front of the vendors in the street, no map glitching needed :)
Hi spiff, just wanted to ask, what civ 6 exploits still work? I tried the pantheon stack in the base game but I think it's patched. Could you try to see if there's more to be found?
Thoughts and prayers to all the inhabitants and wildlife of Starfield. Unfortunately there was nothing that could have been done to prevent the tragedy, but the few who survived will have thoughts and prayers.
Considering how buggy some of the prior releases of their games have been. Compared to them Starfield is damn near flawless lol. Yeah the game isn't perfect, but damn I really love it.
I'm already at 112 hours and only have 3 issues with companions and 2 quest bug so far. Nothing else which is pretty damn good compare to Skyrim, Fallout 4 or even Baldur's Gate. It's nothing a save and reload or ~recycleactor cant fix.
Don't worry after a year u will start downloading mods and make the game buggy yourself. Just cause Bethesda made a game that isn't very buggy doesn't mean we will follow suit.
Todd: spiff is gonna break this game. Put a coffee shop on every corner. Also Todd: he gets us even more sales, give him tea for when he breaks it in his video.
:) I found a shotgun that I turned into a sniper rifle. I think it was called a Breacher. With no perks it was doing over 300 damage and could one shot enemies from over 50m :D It also had over 85% accuracy and access to scopes, so it could probably get the scoped weapon bonus, the shotgun bonus, the ballistic weapons bonus, and all the universal ones. :)
You missed out on the ultimate XP farm. Build an outpost on Bessel III-B where you get both aluminum and iron then craft Adaptive Frames. You can get to level 100 in about an hour and a half.
@@chiefpoupon5643 No, any planet with aluminum and iron will work. If you can’t find a planet with both, you can make two separate outposts, one with iron and one with aluminum. On both outposts, make a ton of linked storage containers and extractors. Go to Venus and wait a planetary day so that all containers fill up. Get your iron from one outpost and your aluminum from another, and go to town. (Note that you can’t actually die from running while over encumbered, so feel free to go wild and carry thousands of pounds of aluminum.)
@@chiefpoupon5643 they can't patch it, it's how outposts/crafting works in this game. but, no, they're not working on game balance like, a week after launch. got something similar going on andraphon in narion system.
there is also another tea vendor on New Atlantis just around the corner to the 'fancy shop' where you can loot the chest then go out front of that shop and just through the floor
Idea for your ship, make the dangling part into a big doughnut shape, the shots might just pass through the hole instead of some hitting the line. Maybe make the entire ship into a doughnut shape for ideal performance.
Dunno if you’ve seen it but there’s a popular build that’s just a box frame with nothing in the middle. Since the AI is coded to shoot at the middle of your ship everything misses you lol
To be fair, this is a Bethesda game. Some of the stuff he finds he already found in earlier titles -- like clipping under the map and looting the inventory of vendors from hidden chests. This game is basically Skyrim with space elements -- functional space elements, mind you -- but the core on-world gameplay is still pretty much the same as Skyrim/Fallout 4.
@@romxxii Honestly, 'functional' is... well, mostly accurate but it's functional the same way the appendix is. It does what it does, I guess, but it really has little purpose existing as a part of the whole.

The New Atlantis chest is easier to get to from the Commercial district. Go around Galbank and up the stairs to the left. Follow the building around to the left on the roof, do some parkour to a roof with tree roots on it, fall through a wall, do a 180 and go forward until you get to the cliff edge, fall down and go right towards the starport.
There is a chest under the Stroud-Eklund staryard that has 160k rather than the standard 72k. You have to jump through a display wall to reach it, but there is no floor underneath so you have to boostpack across to the chest or get teleported back onto the map.
For xp farming go to Strix-I in the Strix system (near the top right of the galaxy map). The creatures there are flying jellyfish that move slowly and travel in huge herds.

hi willy bum bum
My favorite Rust player Hello
To be fair, it comes pre-broken.
Simpler way to get the vendors loot is by spawning in the commercial district following the path straight with the big building on your left until you see a point with 3 pointy trees and one flat tree. Hop up on the flat tree and you’ll see a branch attached to the building, hop on that. Climb up and on the corner of the roof you’re now on you’ll see a black grate vent sort of thing and you can hop through that straight under the map and find a few chests down there. Then go to Venus and sleep for 10 hours and come back and do it again. (If you explain this at some point I’m sorry I commented this 45 seconds into the video)
I do believe this is faster and more reliable than my path
E
There's a staircase to the roof next to the tree so you don't need to climb anything, just walk through the door to the left of the tree
@thespiffingbrit yes but watching you clip thru the ground is a bit funnier
@@thespiffingbritStinklord must have had one more cup of tea then you to find a better exploit. Quite a feat.
I was a tad bit surprised you never talked about the fun shipbuilding glitch that lets you build whatever you want, even if it’s locked.
First, get very close to your ship in shipbuilder so that whatever item you select will clip into the ship and be highlighted as ‘Red - Can’t be placed’.
Attempt to place it anyways and the menu disappears and you can move the part away from the ship, and using up/down, select your forbidden part. Easy as can be, and you can get all the good ship bits without all the levels in the skills.
Still need piloting lvled for Ship class B and C to fly, but other than that? If it’s in the shipwrights builder, you can glitch any piece in the category.
How can they release Skyrim 800 times and then finaly release a different game and it has THE SAME BUGS???
Well starfield is on creation engine 2 and seems like it's just the original with updated graphics so basically it's just skyrim in space
If you put points into crafting you can equip the double barrel shotgun (coachman) with the hornets nest mod which makes the shotgun shoot multiple grenades at once and if you upgrade ballistics, shotgun and explosive perks as well you will get the most powerful explosive weapon in the game.
Haha ok I love the sound of this

@@abdullahyusriabdulkarim7100 i'll say what i always say when i accidentally kill innocents with my war crime of a weapon
fuck em.
also sounds great - doing a crafting focused setup atm without much combat skills, next one was planned to be a serpent's embrace jetpacker dropping bombs on foes anyway.
though, you also need rank 1 in special projects, not just rank 3 in weapon engineering. so, not a 7 point endeavor, but 13 points.
I'm surprised you didnt find the Big Bang. It's an energy shotgun with zero spread that does around 100 physical and 500 energy damage before any perks. You can upgrade that with perks and skills to do several thousands of damage without having to sneak, shooting across half a map.
ah yes, the sniper shotgun
ive played for 75+ hours and havent found it yet, tho ive found a similar shotgun. sounds like a cool weapon
@paths7969
I got lucky and found a 3 star legendary big bang.
It was the 2nd big bang I found.
But if you want better luck, House Vu'urun (idk how to spell them) enemies tend to carry particle weapons.
i wonder if my game is bugged or something, because nothing rarely seems to do more than 100 dmg and is usually high rate of fire, 15 damage *at best*.

Pro tip, while in space combat, if you are ever getting overwhelmed. Simply stand up out of your pilots chair. And all of your systems will continue recharging while everything stops targeting you. I used it to cheese the UC Vigilance fight. So its definitely very useful indeed.

What you playing on a game boy?
Of course we want to see more Starfield videos. Always great to see a classic Spif video.
Spiff is the only man that truly scares Bethesda when a new game comes out.
Nothing scares Bethesda, when it come to bugs they embrace what they can and fix what they must.
Breaking the game is fully intentional. They leave the bugs in on purpose.
not sure they are scared, they have a massive hit again in starfield

Also I set up a money making factory that mass produces materials
Your bethesda game? Are we speaking to man tod Howard himself?
Spiff I discovered that you can easily reset detection to hidden by spamming 1st to 3rd person in the mouse wheel. you can basically walk in front of them as long as your scrolling up and down going to 1st and 3rd persion.
I'm sure you've seen it by now Spiff but you don't need to parkour all around the map to get that 72k crate of credits in New Atlantis.
You can literally phase through the wall at the bottom of the platform by pulling back to 3rd person, jumping, blocking with a melee weapon, and pressing forward.
Special thanks to Todd Howard for giving Spiff years and years of new content with Starfield!
Also, new Keanu looks like Ezra Miller
Almost as dangerous to the public, as well
Keanu??? I believe you mean Reanu Keeves.
You're wrong, he's Adam Driver LOL
He reminded me a bit of Markiplier as well.
When they were designing merchants in this game. There had to be at least one person on the team that muttered under their breath "Spiff is going to have a field day with this game"
I honestly believe it's somewhat intentional at this point. There's no reason it has to be under the vendor, it could be a 1cm wide invisible box 50km above the map and it would work the exact same
Oh and something you didnt pick up : look from legendary enemies get decided when they die. so clear out normal enemies and leave legendary enemies last, get them to low HP and either they will start crazling or you can use EM weapon to stun them. Then just drop a quicksave with your gun aimed at their head and start savescumming for the legendary weapons of your dreams
amazing content as always Spiff!
I can only imagine the purified despair someone feels when Spiff makes a video on their game
For Bethesda, that just feels like another Thursday
Beth games are almost made to be exploited. Morrowind even had an immortal demigod NPC who challenged you to kill him, and had a unique death animation if you managed to break the game and do it.
I mean, it does help in some ways because you can then try and fix the exploits... in theory
A few games have sponsored him to find bugs and exploits pre-release so sometimes they like it
Things that are inevitable:
Death
Taxes
Broken Bethesda games

After playing for a few hours, its nice to see a game played as intended.
Technically it's not cheating, if an NPC can clip thru the terrain so easily, why shouldn't the player not be able? It is not a bug, it's a feature
E
I imagine they will do terrain fixes this time around
@@infernaldaedra Surely!
Easiest way under the terrain is blocking with a melee weapon mid jump into the wall of the landing area near the security checkpoint building. Blocking mid jump makes your character teleport forward a few feet. Also for the chest to replenish, land on venus sleep 24 hours (ends up being like 1200 hours or some stupid shit like that) and money's back. Also the ecklund stroud staryard has a super easy chest for another 72k
Different infinite money trick if the other one ever gets fixed: Hab Junk Items. Any time you change ANYTHING in the ship editor beyond the basic upgrade interface (i.e. using the parts editor) then ALL the junk items in EVERY hab unit are put into the ship's cargo hold, even if there isn't room for them. This happens even if you just rearrange some windows and weapon mountings without buying (paying for) anything. Key is, all habs come with Misc items artisinally scattered through them, and when the game goes "ok they just changed something, all items into the cargo" it THEN generates NEW items to populate the habs with. See where this is going? INFINITE VENDOR TRASH LOOP. There's even a Taiyo 1x1 that has a crapload of Erdbrau and Superfood Paste as part of its clutter. I've got a large B class ship I've been working on and I just completely emptied out a trade ship's credits offloading the stacks of notebooks and note pads and pens and pots empty Terrabrew cups and TP I've built up from it. I wonder if any of these modules have a kitchen that has tomatoes sitting out in it so I can really start production on a supply of Grandpa's Meatloaf. For that matter, I wonder if any hab in the entire game besides the Frontier's unique one has a dimmadamn cooking station to begin with...
The biggest exploit I found was the ability to buy ship parts that would normally be locked until you have enough piloting or ship designer level.
Basically just go into the builder and select the last part you can buy and make sure it's highlighted in red as you select it (it needs to clip into your ship), then you can press the "down" key (S or arrow keys on keyboard) and it will select the part below that's locked, keep pressing down until you have the part you want and then you can just place it like a normal part.
I BELIEVE that they may only change the appearance? Because the stats don't change on the side.
@@wasbear they dont change until you buy the part
how many lag spikes have you encountered on pc
Same goes for placing parts that clip into other parts lol its pretty funny.
@@WorshipHunglabungla55 I've found almost none, I'm playing on a 2k ultrawide and it's smooth as butter
The most OP power you can get is the slow down time. It slows time for everyone but you for like 12 seconds, which is quite powerful in itself. But it glitches out quite often (if you can find out what makes it glitch out that would be interesting) in a way that it also affects you partially. Meaning instead of lasting for 12 seconds it then lasts for 12 minutes. It also slows down your shooting so you can't spam trigger, but switching weapons makes the weapon you switch to fire instantly, so basically can switch between two weapons and fire insanely fast. Reload runs at normal speed. At which point you can run through an area and essentially kill everything while no one can move but you. Only downside is that if you are done with your deeds and the effect is still running you have to wait till it wears off, can't change area or fast travel either while it is still running.
You can reverse the effect by sitting in a chair :)
it could slow down time for everybody but yourself, or it could slow down time for only you, i guess if we look at a clock we could figure it out
Probably because of the gravity of the planet. Since if you wait in the game, There's a local time and universal time. Like the interstellar movie explain time dilation, heavier the gravity, the slower the time become. Time power probably stop time for 12 seconds in universal time, so if you go to a planet with lower gravity then effects also stretch to match 12 second in universal time
Lol so it’s just outer worlds?? it’s like people forgot about that dumpster fire
@@rahmadrenaldi2624that's not how the local/universal time works.
The local time is how long a planet takes to spin on it's axis once relative to the star it's orbiting and dividing that into 24 "local time hours". The universal time is just tracking time as it would be tracked on earth.
Time dilation is another thing entirely and is moreso about travelling really fast causes the person travelling to experience time much quicker than observers would.
the ship design and the idea behind it is most hilarious. thank you.
For the ship vendor money glitch it would be so much easier to to go through the pass through- able door above the Va'Ruun’s embassy
This Reanu Keeves lore is amazing! From Skyrim to Fallout to Stargate. This man is Todd Howard’s dream

I love how in the end stealth archer build is still the most powerful build in this game. Even though there are sniper rifles instead of bows
I'm not sure it is. Explosives are very strong.
*The most cost effective and safe
Stealth builds tend to be very slow. When i was a kid I used to swear by stealth builds until I realised I was taking like quadruple the time and being bored to death as I did it.
You also have to put a lot of perk investment into very specific skills, and that starts to make it restrictive.
A run and gunner can always take an occasional stealth shot, but a sniper can rarely go guns-blazing
Stealth isn't that powerful in this game without minmaxing, and if you do that anything can be powerful
Nothing like ending a good Spiff video with a cup of tea and war crimes
More please~ I find these so enjoyable

what spoilers? the story is non-existent
Keep in mind the armor and weapons have a upgrade sequence in the names ( Basic - Calibrated - Refined - Advanced) I remember it with a mnemonic, Basic crap really annoys me. So if you can find an advanced sniper and a legendary with armor pen it can get even more insane!

mustard gas is easy bro, just pee in a bottle of bleach and seal the lid tight, leave it somewhere for about 2 months or so and then either throw it and the pressure will make it pop or unseal the lid with a gas mask on
all you need for the actual chemical is ammonia and chlorine, ammonia is free in pee and bleach has chlorine but if you just do it straight away it will be tiny affects but leaving it for a while increases its affects

@@randym3602 I'm more a Bose-Einstein condensate guy myself.
FYI: Weapon damage is based on the weapons tier. This includes Normal, Calibrated, Refined, and Advanced, with each dealing far more damage than the last. You were using 'normal' tier weapons for the alien hunting.
It seemed like the hunting weapon was chosen for cheap ammo and rate of fire for just slogging through the numbers. It was probably just in his inventory and worked!
This is one of the things I hated about the the outer limits. So glad to see Bethesda learned nothing from their failure.

That's very nice of The Spiffing Brit to highlight little youtubers like Wendigoon. ❤
I love that it kept getting darker and darker the longer the video went on
In my mind, Todd knew that Spiff was going to break his new jewel of a game, and he put the tea shop in the game to try to distract/pacify Spiff from breaking the game
What a brilliant observation. I actually can't think of any other reason its in there. We Americans literally don't put tea into anything we create, unless - we're specifically pandering to a brittish.
From the moment I saw the perfectly lootable vendor chests I knew that Todd kept that " Skyrim feature" for the Spiffin Brit :) It probably was more work to make visible vendor chests like that, in Akila city you can even get to these chest by just crouching down in front of the vendors in the street, no map glitching needed :)
Quite an entertaining video, my dear boy. Good Show
You’re the bain of every developer’s existence. Good job.

Todd added tea in an attempt to placate Spiff, but also added coffee to remind him who the boss is.
Adding coffee to the game was like waving the proverbial red flag to the bull.... it was just asking for trouble lols XD
Classic Spiff, taking "i live in your walls" very serious. As always, quality time with Spiff and good cup of tea.
Hi spiff, just wanted to ask, what civ 6 exploits still work? I tried the pantheon stack in the base game but I think it's patched. Could you try to see if there's more to be found?
What materials/parts did did you use to create the 'L-shape' part of your ship?
I am 100% certain this is the way this game was intended to be played, a tip of the hat to you Spiffing Brit
Thoughts and prayers to all the inhabitants and wildlife of Starfield. Unfortunately there was nothing that could have been done to prevent the tragedy, but the few who survived will have thoughts and prayers.
Excellent content Sir
love this stuff!
Considering how buggy some of the prior releases of their games have been. Compared to them Starfield is damn near flawless lol. Yeah the game isn't perfect, but damn I really love it.
As someone who just played a release build of skyrim this is infinitely more stable
But it still always just works🌚
I'm already at 112 hours and only have 3 issues with companions and 2 quest bug so far. Nothing else which is pretty damn good compare to Skyrim, Fallout 4 or even Baldur's Gate. It's nothing a save and reload or ~recycleactor cant fix.
Don't worry after a year u will start downloading mods and make the game buggy yourself. Just cause Bethesda made a game that isn't very buggy doesn't mean we will follow suit.

Todd: spiff is gonna break this game. Put a coffee shop on every corner.
Also Todd: he gets us even more sales, give him tea for when he breaks it in his video.

:) I found a shotgun that I turned into a sniper rifle. I think it was called a Breacher. With no perks it was doing over 300 damage and could one shot enemies from over 50m :D It also had over 85% accuracy and access to scopes, so it could probably get the scoped weapon bonus, the shotgun bonus, the ballistic weapons bonus, and all the universal ones. :)

Its good to see you breaking a Bathesda game again.
Idea for your ship, make the dangling part into a big doughnut shape, the shots might just pass through the hole instead of some hitting the line. Maybe make the entire ship into a doughnut shape for ideal performance.
Dunno if you’ve seen it but there’s a popular build that’s just a box frame with nothing in the middle. Since the AI is coded to shoot at the middle of your ship everything misses you lol

To be fair, this is a Bethesda game. Some of the stuff he finds he already found in earlier titles -- like clipping under the map and looting the inventory of vendors from hidden chests.
This game is basically Skyrim with space elements -- functional space elements, mind you -- but the core on-world gameplay is still pretty much the same as Skyrim/Fallout 4.
@@romxxii Honestly, 'functional' is... well, mostly accurate but it's functional the same way the appendix is. It does what it does, I guess, but it really has little purpose existing as a part of the whole.

You are freaking marvelous!
