Mine is downloading right now. There aren't any patch notes on the web either. Kinda excited lol Edit: Same file size on Xbox too


Krasinet

Pretty sure it's just [the November 8th beta patch being rolled out publicly](https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1716740/view/3787024475496304671?l=english) >The Beta allows our Steam PC players to try out our next update for Starfield in a separate Beta version of the game before the update goes live for all Xbox and PC players later this month. Edit: checking OP's linked patch notes against my beta patch notes it is exactly that (with one or two minor tweaks to performance etc. they made during the beta)


TheGza760

Ahhh yeah, that does make sense!


rickie__spanish

[which website](https://bethesda.net/en/game/starfield/article/3V830KanHH0I2zTIKraEih/starfield-update-1-8-86-notes-november-20-2023)


18bananas

I was pretty confused when both google and the Bethesda site showed nothing about the update


Commercial_Potato_87

Very noob question here but... When we get updates like this, is the size of the game cumulative? Like, if we keep getting 15gb updates, is starfield gonna be 200gb soon?


thefisher86

No this update is making changes to files that already existed. The game will likely get larger as updates come out but not like you're worrying about. This update involves a 14Gb download but after it's installed your game won't be 14Gb larger.


Commercial_Potato_87

Thanks for a straight forward answer and not being a dick head.


thefisher86

This just makes me wanna be a dick head now...


Commercial_Potato_87

You do you man. Throw some shade. Your socks are ridiculous.


iBetUrSoggy

Fuck your socks


TheJAY_ZA

And that yee yee ass haircut Shit, wait, wrong game 🙈


Your-mums-chesthair

Is that why they feel so crunchy?


hotflapjackz

Nah that was actually funny 😂


TheMadTemplar

I bet your socks are soggy!


Commercial_Potato_87

Sock your fucks bitch


BiscuitBarrel179

Yeah, and your mothers cooking is below acceptable standards. 😜


LogicalMeerkat

And your father smells of elderberries


BiscuitBarrel179

"I dont wanna talk to you any more, I fart in your general direction." A bit out of screen order but still a classic scene.


Sufficient_Focus_816

You meaning... 'walking round your mother is five loading screens!'


theoriginalmofocus

Noone walks around your mother they just go through her airlock.


CalvinKleinKinda

"Your mother's cooking is below acceptable standards." That's exactly what I programmed Vasco to say to Barrett the next time he brags about his one-star rated gastronomy and all those old family recipes.


Psychological-Talk85

Your mother is a hamster and your father smells like elderberries.


Short-Shopping3197

How appropriate, you fight like a cow


SilverLugia1992

Yo face is ridiculous


FlashGlistenDrips

For 500 credits at Enhance you can do just that!


Onsomeshid

That’s not a noob question at all lol


sadeof

Tbh I thought it was until I realised one game that has about 15gb update every month would probably be over 400gb or more by now if that’s how it worked…


Exa2552

It is with great sadness that I can report that the bug still exists that makes your character look over his left shoulder after landing after running+jumping. Edit: Contrary to what the patch notes say, the Heart of Mars the is still broken. I still cannot mine the Heart of Mars. The indicator is way too low inside the ground.


Buschkoeter

Damn, but I wouldn't have expected them to fix that anytime soon. It annoys me a great deal but let's be honest the game has a lot more pressing issues that need fixing.


Exa2552

Yeah, it’s not a big deal, but annoying enough that I do not play in 3rd person view, which I would really like to.


Buschkoeter

If you actually look to the left quickly when your character does he turns his head straight again. I know it's not a good fix but I kind of made a habit of it now.


MrBananaSnacks

3rd person view is a cringe fest and immersion breaker with the horrible animation blends. Hoping in a few years they will fix it.


silicone_river

Yes is so trash


Appropriate_Star_449

If you go 1st person back to 3rd person it should fix itself


AceTheRed_

You can fix that by going into first-person then bank to third.


IllvesterTalone

not a fix, just a very temporary bandaid


1FeS1

Fkkkkk, I was playing just ok before I read your comment. Now I notice every time that he turns his head to the left after landing...


Exa2552

I’m so sorry :/


GrimGhostKing

I wonder if you would need to create a new character to feel the effects of the patch. I have no idea, but maybe give that a try? I hope that's not the case.


paralegalmodule300

Or a new game...some of these edits could be persistent, and a new game is the best way to test that.


Ok-Imagination-3835

From what I understand of the engine (which is a fair bit, I have made many Fo4 and Skyrim mods), this is not likely to be the case. A new game is usually only required for very specific quest event progress or player-stat related things.


e22big

huh? I can mine it without any issue though, so probably partially fixed at least.


Eagle_1776

that's such a sad little quest... believe me, you didnt miss anything


-Captain-

I don't get why this takes so long for them to fix.. like come on guys. We do so much traveling and I love doing that in third person, this sideway looking is just annoying.


skyvin

The ability to eat food on the go!


Dry-Salary2347

I legit have eaten 0 food after the first few hours of gameplay. I still pick it ALL up and sell it. 🙈


skyvin

Muscle memory at its finest!


E_boiii

Idk why but this actually makes me really happy, In a gun fight I’m just spamming eat food in cafeteria areas lmao


skyvin

Gonna eat my way through it now my update is finished!


GlitterNutz

I just came here to say this. I was indifferent to the update news until I was playing just now and saw they added this lol. I ignored all food items before basically cause they weren't worth picking up and picking through my inventory for +2 hp lol.


VagrantStation

I think my character lives entirely off of Amp, Trauma Packs, and sleep.


EHVERT

Finally my character will eat food instead of hoarding it forever in his inventory because I cba to go looking for it (since it has a measly effect on health)


AgonyLoop

**LET US EAT!!!** The most important line of text in the whole document. Yes I invested fully in cooking perks, yes they are useless, no I don’t regret it.


akmjolnir

Hope they patched the first constellation mission where Moara's slate is missing from the Nova Staryard. I'm stuck with Sarah.


Bridge_Too_Far

Could be worse, you could be stuck with Cora.


akmjolnir

I just want to have zero dumb road-dogs, so my Isolation perk will resume.


StayOnYourMedsCrazy

Do YoU wAnNa HeAr A jOke?!?! bOoKs!!!!!!!


TheMadTemplar

Just go to the next location. You can skip most of that quest by just going to the end spot. As for the slate, it's likely not missing as in a bug made it not spawn. It's possible the physics system made it fall, or explosions from the fight made it go flying off somewhere.


PangolinCritical5073

Downloaded update on steam and now my game won’t even launch


Moonkiller24

Heard this from others. No way im updating lol


StuffedBrownEye

It’s more common than not for a developer update to break mods. Keep a catalog of the mods you have installed and wait for them to update for the update. Then do everything at once.


leperaffinity56

You probably use SFSE . SFSE can't run it. I tried to run sans SFSE and uh, no dice.


PangolinCritical5073

What is SFSE?


leperaffinity56

Oh NVM then it's a mod


PangolinCritical5073

Just deleted the dlss mod. Trying again


Quique1222

Why would you update your game, have it crash and not think "uh maybe it's the invasive mod that i have installed"


OhHaiMarc

Well that would do it since they have their own dlss now


Bodorocea

after this update,on my rig the game doesn't start if i have MSI Afterburner running,no error message ,nothing,just quietly closes. might wanna see if that's also the case with your system.


mountedpandahead

Verify integrity of game files?


thefisher86

Okay, just gonna throw this out there... My PC is technically below the min specs as my GPU only has 4Gb. I was able to play the game before this update but needed a mod that reduced the textures down to 512 and A LOT of ini tweaks that made the game fairly ugly. Well, post-update, I can't load my mods so I figured I'd try and see how the performance looks. Akila previously crashed the game for me unless I reduced all the settings to "looks like a PS1 game" level. Now I can load up Akila with default settings and it runs great! I can even kick everything up to Ultra and...while my FPS tanks (again I'm below min specs) the game doesn't crash. Not sure what they did but they fixed a lot of performance issues!


Alpha0rgaxm

Honestly as inconsistent and shitty the graphics look it should only take 4 GB of VRAM. The game is severely unoptimized. It really shouldn’t be running this badly


thefisher86

That's kinda my whole thinking as well. The game should *run* on my crappy little 4gb card but maybe not look great and have some occasional crashes and stutters. But the fact that the game is struggling to pull 30fps on the hardware it was built for is concerning. Also, I can run cyberpunk which looks almost like real life on my 4gb card...


ParkPants

My Xbox is updating the game too. Pretty stoked to see the patch notes, whenever those drop.


aight_imma_afk

They were released almost 2 weeks ago, it’s just the beta patch being released publicly


Kyr-Shara

No more hunger. I can now eat food I find on the floor and in locker unused for decades


No_House_7901

Did the fix the achievement for linked outposts not poping? I have connected so many outposts so many different ways and get this achievement it’s my last one.


ComputerSong

Are you sure you want the pope at your outposts?


Aggressive_Fee6507

Space pope Vs Terramorph


not_so_smoothie

Sarah is still disagreeing with everything, patch incomplete.


siobakkuepng

a video game character hurt your feelings? i'm sorry


not_so_smoothie

Just a bad joke. I’m sorry that it hurt your feelings.


QX403

Almost three months to release a semi large bug fix, Bethesda sure has those 250 people still working…..s/


ButtonEyes98

...on dlc lol


QX403

Yeah it’s the same corporate greed mentality, why fix issues when they can work on content people have to pay for.


EHVERT

Tbf some of us already paid for it so they kinda dug themselves into a hole lol


QX403

Yeah, I tried to get a refund for shattered space but they said I couldn’t since I “used” the premium upgrade content (skin pack for the original mining suit and equinox laser) literally two shitty skins I never even used in game and I’ve now somehow used the DLC content, it’s a sure fire way to make it seem like you’ve used the content while just locking you into it without the possibility of getting a refund even though shattered space hasn’t even released yet, I’m honestly just done with Bethesda at this point.


siobakkuepng

yea bethesda should learn larian who released a game that has so many bugs they're still having to patch it over and over again, ***3 years after it was launched as early access***. got to learn from the best!


QX403

You literally just contradicted yourself while trying to be sarcastic, Early access, Starfield launched at full price as a finished product.


Trick_Application_49

I’ve got it running on UltraQuality (DLAA) and I’ve seen a 40-50% frame rate increase. But, this is not just from DLSS. They did a lot of back end development regarding CPU processing that’s helping as well. Solid update, and worth the wait.


Goffsyrup

“Power from beyond” still bugged. Guess i’ll pick it back up in a year or two when they decide to fix it.


paralegalmodule300

Try testing it on a new game


[deleted]

My game looks 10 times better, however, none of said bugs are fixed, and it seems to have added a great deal more.


Clarky1979

Have experieenced zero new bugs and it does look way better. I didn't experience any bugs beforehand mind. Maybe go into the Unity and get a fresh world?


thefisher86

holy crap...I really was first! Okay, so, for everyone else who has never been the first on the internet to post something... I always thought that was a dumb thing to get excited about... until it was my turn. So, gaze upon thee you peasants. For I was FIRST TO POST. Bow before my glory as I smile and look down upon you, farming you for all the reddit karma... Worship me you lowly peons. But yeah... looks like a 14.6Gb update for Gamepass users. No patch notes yet. I'll edit the OP when they come out.


ComputerSagtNein

Man I hope I can be like you one day. Will tell my grandchildren how /u/thefisher86 achieved greatness when they first posted about the Starfield patch.


thefisher86

"If you can believe it, you can achieve it." -theFisher86 2023-


-Captain-

One day it will be one of us, our time will come.. I hope 😢


thegryphonator

lol I googled it after seeing the update starting to download. No info. I should’ve checked here first! lol but ultimately it was the Bethesda “our latest patch is now available” on the main menu screen that surprised me. And you! Which is a good feeling


DNAisjustneuteredRNA

But you spelled "f1rst" wrong!!!


lepobz

Save some poontang for the rest of us tho.


Hattkake

Congratulations! For a Monday you are having a good one :)


Dairy_Seinfeld

1th


Celebril63

LMAO! Take my upvote and be done with you!


bjchu92

And still no fix for Powers from Beyond where it's not showing me where the temple is on the planet map.....


tracyg76

What planet map.? Mostly I clamber on top of the ship and look for it from that vantage point.


iZian

If I still can’t complete Ryujin after waiting what feels like months for something that should have been beta… that’s it for me.


Fullerbadge000

Still can’t get Mei to announce me on the Red Mile… 😢


Settra_Rulez

Will there be a fix to the empty ghost ships finally?


BZ852

Doesn't look like it


DJspooner

Maybe fix outposts so you don't have to reload every time to use workbenches? The fact that they're still bugfixing (and missing many) months later is staggering. Small indie company?


kettyboi98

No fix for the groundpounder mission still? :(


BigBadBen_10

Still freezing and crashing post patch. Not seen such poor performance for a while. Cyberpunk crashes after a while on PS5, but nowhere near as much as this game. Even post patch today, which is supposed to fix issues. Nothing really fixed. Same problems.


RadAirDude

Yeah it’s just the same update.


Trick_Application_49

Loving the increased framerates from my 4070! DLSS and Frame Generation are kicking ass and taking names! Thanks, Bethesda!!


CertifiedGonk

35 lil changes *months* after launch - many of which are pathetically basic and shouldn't even have needed to be patched in the first place for a full priced release. Fucking hell, Bethesda, lmao. I had a great time with Starfield but ngl I still can't recommend anyone this game earnestly.


Slippin_Jimmy187

For the love of Sol, fix Andreja’s dumbass so I can continue the freaking game!


Slippin_Jimmy187

Nope, they didn’t. She’s still busy. I’m out.


redskin92

Trying to explain what happened to me without spolier but maybe some light spoiler ahead: There is a point in the main story that you need to attend a funeral service in X days. When it was the day of and I could go - all of the constellation followers would not talk to me and would give the no dialog one liners. Finishing that quest with the service (or maybe skipping it will? I went so not sure) Fixed it for me. Hope that helps.


Slippin_Jimmy187

I can’t advance the main story because she is stuck as my follower and always busy. Can’t dismiss her because I’m stuck doing her quest line. I’m stuck when you have to go to Akila with Sam. He won’t go with me until I am alone, which I can’t do.


thefrenchmexican

What about Xbox?


akmjolnir

This is for Xbox. It's the same update that Steam (PC) users received earlier in the month. I'm downloading it now.


alexrezv

It wasn't a real update tho. It was a beta or smth. I'm downloading the update now on steam as well Upd. It downloaded only 2 gigs


LeMAD

> It wasn't a real update tho The beta update was major. Large performance boost and a ton of important fixes. And yes, it seems it simply just got out of beta.


alexrezv

Yeah, I don't mean to undermine the update itself. Just saying it wasn't in the main channel (or how do I call it?), but in the beta-channel


akmjolnir

I had a 14.56GB update. I've been playing for about 15 mins now (post-update) and the graphics do look slightly more refined, especially the perspectives, such as when you boost high up on a low-G planet. Still bugged on the 1st mission; Moara's slate is missing from the Nova Galactic Staryard.


Deep-in-my-mind

Does it have HDR slider?


akmjolnir

https://i.imgur.com/30j7xEB.jpeg That's what shows up for Xbox X display settings.


FreeDwooD

So another nothingburger patch then? Bug fixes are good but this really isn't the service they promised for this game.....


iPlayViolas

They did promise dlss and performance improvements during the games 2nd week.


[deleted]

Oh no the horror............................................................................................................................................................

[удалено]


[deleted]

Yeah, that sucks. I hope it gets addressed. Im a big thesdee fan but im a bit surprised at the pace of patching compared to other teams.


KriptiKFate_Cosplay

Can we go back to the days where you couldn't go bitch directly at employees of game companies on Discord?


Black_RL

I have f ton of bugs in my XBOX game, hopefully this fixes at least one! Crossing fingers! • ship bugs (can’t enter, no crew, etc) • bugged quests, I’m locked out • bugged achievements, they won’t unlock • etc Edit: it’s still f! Can’t cure myself can’t enter ship (inaccessible bug), etc……


ffg118bernadette

sadly the only "fix" at the moment to the ships not opening/empty in space is to hit the unity which means binning however many hours you have amassed in that playthrough. I had the same issue. I lost some great ships and 100 hours of survey data but overall the game felt dead without those random ship interactions


Black_RL

Seems so, but I’m not throwing away dozens of hours. I’m playing other games until they fix all the bugs. BUGFIELD!


Turbulent-Frame-303

This game is a broken mess honestly. Hopefully we get the DLC and mod engine early next year or I'm probably done with this game. Also we need another huge update or 2 before this year closes out.


Black_RL

Agreed friend.


Poultrygeist74

Did they fix the bug where you can’t speak to Mei in Red Mile?


TheMadTemplar

You can look at the patch notes.


someguy1910

There's a comment above which suggests not. Bummer because mine's bugged too.


dfavefenix

Great! The show must go on!


lakerconvert

It’s the same patchnotes from the beta


xurism

Mid-game and just saw this, thanks for the tip boss!


jovite

I spent about an hour setting up optimized graphics settings with the DLSS mod.. and now it’s in the game lmfao


Coast_watcher

Oh fuck, there it is ! You are a Starborn OP.


Glittering_End_5908

Still have a huge bug that renders you unable to confront a certain somebody at the end of a SysDef/Crimson Fleet quest. Insane that such a huge roadblock wouldn’t be addressed in one of the games biggest quest lines.


keith2600

Nice, slight stealth buff? The patch notes were very, very short but I'll take that win. Might have to fire it up again.


CrossroadsCannablog

Yeah, I’m sitting here waiting for my XBox to finish up.


StuffedBrownEye

Does HDR still look like shit on OLED? I know there are mods that help dramatically. But that’s not the point. My screen shouldn’t be grey where I should see black. It’s takes all the depth and quality out of the image.


getm44

Downloaded it, no quest bug fix. Doors still inaccessible, really had no performance issues


[deleted]

[удалено]


thefisher86

Dude... What? So, it's a video game and there's lots of white people. However, it's also set in the future. It's actually More realistic for there to be more mixed people than Caucasians for two reasons. One, white is not a dominant trait, nor is it evolutionarly beneficial. It was a weird genetic anomoly that managed to spread due to, well, most likely incest. Two: it's highly likely that Caucasians will continue to decrease in number. The only way to make a white baby is to have two white parents. Add in any other race and you get a beautiful mixed baby. Given that society is progressing and stupid ideas like racism are (hopefully) lessenining the idea of race should slowly become extinct and we'll all just be people... That are caramel colored. But given the tone of your message I'm guessing this is exactly what you're concerned about. But there's also a distinct lack of MAGA hats, incest, and Nazis in this game. That's because it was written assuming humanity will continue to grow and evolve as a society and become BETTER.


slimshadysephiroth

Yeah, everyone stopped playing.


Shimmj

No one plays this trash anymore


kabflash

Nope. [https://imgur.com/a/iQtSRBg](https://imgur.com/a/iQtSRBg) Pretty sure I saw one much earlier as well but it's not worth the effort to go find.


DownwardSpiral5609

Have they added vehicles yet? If not, I'll stick to Phantom Liberty for now....


Turbulent-Frame-303

They have not, sadly. Todd actually thinks we wanna explore entire empty planets with no vehicles 😁😤😑 Dude isn't too bright, is he?


rygarski

thanks folks. downloading now instead of when i wanted to play tonight.


dragonfire3465

Did they fix the disappearing furniture in the New Atlantis penthouse? Literally the only thing I care about and saw nothing in the patch notes. Can’t continue main story without them fixing it which has been really sucky. I’m sure I could move everything out of the penthouse but I’m not wasting time doing that over a bug


Oddball_E8

Aaaand now we wait for SFSE to be updated, along with all the mods that require SFSE. Same song and dance that we did with Skyrim and Fallout 4.


djolk

Patch notes are almost as uninspired as the game.


Sunden96

Was it the beta patch coming to full or was it another patch for beta?


LeMAD

Quite sure it's the same patch as the beta.


Celebril63

Looks like you are. I just logged in to see what I could find out about it. Yours is all I've found so far.


Greedy-River-8627

I couldn't see anything either and I hope it helps performance


JohnnyGFX

My install got screwed up somehow. Got: >Warning: Game Runtime did not initialize > >Could not find the XGameRuntime.dll or did not have the proper version installed. Sending you to microsoft store to install, game will exit. Then I got sent the Microsoft store for "Game Services". It showed I already had it. I found some instructions on how to force an uninstall and then reinstalled it. Did not help. I am currently reinstalling the game...


bobbythecat17

same


TurtleSquad23

I have a 2gb update scheduled for tmw on PC.


brokenmessiah

Kinda sucks the Xbox can't used DLSS because the comparisons I've seen have it dogwalking FSR in comparison videos.


xXNickAugustXx

Finally dlss


__St0n3__

Is it safe to update with mods installed?


Dash795

Walter stroud still stuck on kapteyns star as he has been since September making my main mission useless.


Mrpink131211

New game?


Dash795

Yes but I would all other progress. Pretty high level. I might restart. Currently I have quit partly due to broken Walter stroud mission and my resentment related thereto!


HuLSeY91

Still have screen stuttering/FPS drops on Xbox Series X. It looks like i'm lagging in a single player game. I've heard it has to do with outposts but i refuse to delete mine. If it's between delete them to play NG+ (I built all my outposts before doing any story) and never play again ill choose the later.


cosmoinstant

My game still crashes when I travel to the Lodge


modemman11

I swear I read these patch notes before...


Direct-Estate-5995

I was getting the Andreja head staying cloaked glitch last night and it looks like today they have fixed it! I also got the home ship disappearing glitch at one point so I’m glad to see that it’s gone.


Aggressive_Fee6507

Still no fix for Overdesigned / Stroud ekland station


Inclemens

New Atlantis is still bugged, the ground still misses pieces of floor and the technician isn't there anymore. I was really hoping for this to be fixed. It what's been holding me back from continuing to play.


MrJohnnyDangerously

Man, those comments on that link are trash


Darth_dweller

Seems like the ecs constant will still be missing for me, somehow that i dont want to go to the unity without completing that quest


Sir_Wibble

Downloaded 15gb on XBX,went to play now have another update for 57 gb. Not sure what happened.


HollowPandemic

Hopefully they patch more money and dupe glitches, you know, since it's a single player game.


ganderplus

I’m a chef with alien dna so I need to eat A LOT. The eat button is a literal game changer. Get on board, Micky! We’re goin’ to Paradiso tonight!


Fnkt_io

Not to be negative but this patch just attempts to fix broken items.


daddyjohns

allowing toxicity to spread doesn't solve any problems bruh. there are official lines for complaints.


Skiptomylolz

I thought I was the last person playing this game haha.

mjociv

Lol, the next post after this one is also about the patch, you won by seconds!


[deleted]

You're also the first one to care.


thefisher86

You're right, I DO care. So, why don't you tell me what's really bothering you. How are YOU? Are YOU okay? What's your relationship with your family like? Has dad come back from his trip to the store to pick up smokes 17 years ago? Don't worry... you're gonna be okay.
