Hmm. How do I assign weapons to a group? A tutorial would have been good 😂

I’ve just run into the same issue as mothercruncher. Stole a ship and am facing three enemies at once 😂 does it irritate anybody else that it’s 0 to heal and O to repair the ship (PC, at least) it did until I changed them bit to be mouse5. Also mouse4 is scan in both now as well. Calmed my sanity. Just found a Bad People, Bad Jokes 1 book. I need to find more dad jokes in starfield. Why did the Crimson Fleet pirate go to the Enhance! clinic? He wanted more booty!

When I first joined Constellation, Sarah says something along the lines of “and let’s get you into a respectable spacesuit.”
A) is she referring the one you’re all nabbing? and B) is it a quest reward or were you meant to receive one upon joining?

Quest reward after the first Constellation mission. It’s a helmet/pack/suit combo that’s literally called Constellation.

Another outfit you can get through the gap
Doubt they will be patching these out as it seems you can do it with several.

More top tips from a random suggested YouTube vid: Companions can equip weapons *and armour* you give them. To get them to equip armour, go into the trade menu of stuff you've given them, and equip the armour from there, the same way you would from your own inventory. It will equip on them, not you. If you're a kleptomaniac pirate but don't like the red icon indicating an item you're using is stolen, you can "launder" it by selling it to the Trade Authority and then immediately buying it back again from the "buy back" tab.

I don't feel like Constellation have been trying very hard. Literally the next 2 missions have resulted in pieces. I've visited The Eye and got a mission to go look for another piece on Niira(sp?).
Investigated all the cave for the piece, place was deep. Spent about 45 mins scanning all the flora, fauna and resources. Just 1 resource left but can't find it yet. Few around the planet to land on another part to see if I could locate and stumbled on a secluded outpost with spacers all over it. Thoroughly enjoyed boosting all over firing lasers pewpewpew!
Looted the fuck out of it to then discover a door ... that then went into a large mine ... Full of enemies and random shit and some contraband.
3 hours later, I got back to my ship to offload.

Public Service Announcement:
If you are a pickpocketing bastard and you lift Benjamin Bayu's penthouse key off him in the Astral Lounge on Neon, it seems like you can get trapped in said penthouse because the elevator out says that the floor you just fucking came from is Restricted. Opening the scanner for fast travel to another area of Neon doesn't highlight any possible destinations. I found that the only way out without having to reload a previous save was to go to the starmap and fast travel out by hitting Land on another area.

On early main quest (into the unknown) it seems the end part is glitchy (no suprise there) i was collecting those light things for ages. After reading the same issue on reddit, left the companion outside, use 3rd person view and got about 5 and it worked

My current quest has me working for 2 factions. It's fun but having to go back to them both to report after every mission is a little annoying. Had a stealth part and my companion who's a stealth expert and can even go invisible suddenly decided she would prefer to keep starting gun fight so had to keep reloading my saves.

(Not quest related - random) Came across a Mars Science Lab within which an unblemished colonist claimed to be dying. Despite my best pep talk he was insistant on his demise. Que end of dialogue and him doing what can only be described as a double flip death in front of me like something from a Benny Hill sketch.
Prior to said artistic death he also had no issue with me rummaging around taking a good amount of his lab contents in front of his eyes (no stealing issue).
To be fair there was some blood on the wall so maybe he was on to something but not a scratch on the lad.

Bizarre Space Adventures 101 I had a Spacer die standing up after I gun-bashed him in the back. Just stood there swaying slightly while I looted him, eyes still open. Very creepy. Maybe your guy got my guy’s ragdoll animation.

Can’t help but think throwing the main hub city at you straight away is a massive break on pacing - much better to give you a small outpost to get quests at at first I would have thought? As it is I had some combat/exploration the first night of playing then have spent about 3 or 4 hours going through the city with a couple of districts still to visit.
Appreciate I could go exploring and do one or two of the quests I’ve already picked up, but feels more ‘efficient’ to try and get all the quests from the city first.

That space suit everyone is stealing - the door wasn't even locked for me? I just opened it, no lockpicking required.

Guys I’ve come to some conclusions about Starfield. It isn’t the best game ever; it isn’t the worst game ever; it has absolutely brilliant doors. I think that’s about it.

The doors are great. I open and close them all the time and just watch the mechanisms in operation.

Wasn't particularly compelled to play at all this week, but put a few hours in this morning and had some fun clearing Spacers out of a research colony. I see that the split amongst the sensible people playing on "day one" is about the same as it was for the early birds. Some just overjoyed to get Skyrim++ IIIN SPAAAAACE and others narked that so little has changed in some 20 years. I must say that now my expectations are fully in check, I'm a little less disappointed with each successive misstep. It's still a solid 7/10 for me personally on every level, but I've completed and enjoyed my fair share of them over the years. My other half is enjoying this a lot more than I, but she plays probably three games a year so is in no way as jaded and oversaturated with repetition as I am. Can't see me besting my 20+ replays of Morrowind, 3 of Oblivion, and at least 5 of Skyrim. One good playthrough with a bunch of rinsing and then wait for ES6 to release in 2028 I reckon.

I didn't even wander anywhere on the city. After some arrival photos I went straight to constellation and then back out into space. It was on my return that I decided to have a look around. There are no POIs on my surface map or even anything that looked like I could interact so I just mained it. However I'm exploring all over barren rocks. What I realised last night is you can literally land anywhere on a planet if there is space for you to do so (not water). I thought you could only land at the marked locations highlighted on the orbital starmap.

Yeah, I largely skipped that first city as well. I just knew it'd be full of fetch quests and scan quests, plus it wasn't easy to parse the navigation at first. I did come back to it at Level 10 or something and actually wander around the stores and wotnot though. Can't help but think that Akilla or somewhere on that scale would've been the better starting location... build up to the super cities, y'know? Excellent opening mission, too.

I hopped over the walls of the city near the Lodge and found some fun things in the ‘wilds’.

Had an interesting bug last night where my "landed" ship had actually landed 3/4 way into the ground, as I couldn't get into the ship I fast travelled and the ship was not visible while in orbit, it span around during the warp drive cutscene and then was unresponsive after. Ahh Bethesda.
Fwiw I'm enjoying it so far but that's tempered with knowing that it's a Bethesda game through and through for better and for worse, the NPC's still feel like mannequins, the presentation is somewhere between last gen and this gen in terms of how much loading screens there are and the engine they have is really holding it back but I understand why they still use it. I'm only LV 6 but it feels like a 7.5/10 so far.
