It's dead bro.

Xbox, Zenimax, Activision-Blizzard Showcase is the new E3.

Lmao.

You’d get attach then just .. cut the cord without a care, monster. 

Same thing happened here, not even sure where I got it from, may have been from my companion, but somewhere around hour 20 I got an advanced Regulator pistol that does over 100 damage per shot before skill boosts. Such a good weapon, I can one-shot all but the most powerful of human and beast enemies with it and I only have a single skill point boosting it's damage, a single point boosting ballistic weapon damage. Between that and the powerful ship I got from my family with the Kid Stuff trait, I haven't struggled with combat barely at all, only died like twice at 46 hours of playtime so far. 

It definitely is odd. I fully expected to see the Steam peak concurrent number over Skyrim's 287k peak and Fallout 4's 472k peak, because Steam's overall userbase has more than doubled since Fallout 4 released and gone more than 9x higher since Skyrim released (Steam had approximately 3m peak concurrent users when Skyrim released and approximately 10m peak concurrent users when Fallout 4 released, now it has seen over 25m peak concurrent users across all games). And yet, Starfield has so far peaked at 269k on Steam, less than Skyrim and far less than Fallout 4. True peak will likely be on the first weekend after the official launch, so this upcoming weekend, but I would be shocked if it does enough even then to top the Fallout 4 record of 472k considering it only managed 269k on it's Tuesday launch. 

It seems like PC Gamepass pulled far more people from Steam than I ever expected it to. With Xbox stating they had over 1m peak concurrent players across all 4 platforms (Xbox Series/Console Gamepass, Cloud, Steam, and Windows Store/PC Gamepass), and a peak of 269k on Steam that day, that means Steam only accounted for approximately 25% of the 1m+ peak concurrent users across all 4 platforms. However, it's also worth noting that Xbox's marketing team likes even, rounded numbers, it's entirely possible that them saying over 1m peak concurrent users across all platforms means the actual number is anywhere from 1-1.9m peak concurrent users across all platform. At the very least, I wouldn't be surprised if the true peak across all platforms was at least 1.2m, which would mean Steam accounted for even less than 25% of the total playerbase.

Starfield has proven to be a huge subscription driver for Gamepass it seems, particularly PC gamepass which has largely struggled to takeoff due to being tied to Windows Store and having a file directory system that makes modding far more difficult and such. How many of those new PC Gamepass users will stay subbed after finishing Starfield, I can't say, but hopefully alot of them will find other games on there they want to play and decide to stay subbed.

Obsessed with peoples ship designs, Lol.

I feel like somebody got this idea from the Gummi Ship building in Kindgom Hearts, as I recall all of the Gummi Ship guides tell you to build a ring shaped ship like this because the AI struggles to hit them in Kingdom Hearts, seems it works the same in Starfield xD

Here is one of them:

At this point I don’t even remember what the starting ship looked like :L 

Sources familiar with Microsoft’s Xbox plans tell me the company was prototyping a cloud-focused Xbox handheld previously. Microsoft has developed a lightweight version of the Xbox user interface that can run on handheld devices, dedicated cloud consoles, and TVs. While we’ve seen this interface appear on some Samsung TVs, the dedicated Xbox cloud console that Microsoft first announced in 2021 was cancelled as Microsoft pivoted toward the TV streaming app instead.

The Xbox maker had been very close to launching its dedicated Xbox cloud console last year before scrapping its plans just weeks before an announcement. The device, codenamed Project Keystone, was then spotted on Xbox chief Phil Spencer’s shelf in October, confirming that the company had manufactured some units.

Work on Xbox Cloud Gaming has slowed over the past year inside Microsoft, sources tell me. Microsoft previously promised that Xbox Cloud Gaming would support your existing game library by the end of 2022, but that never happened. Microsoft also scrapped plans to launch a dedicated version of Xbox Cloud Gaming that players could subscribe to instead of paying for the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

I'm still using the ship your parents give you for free with the Kid Stuff trait, it has the best stats out of the 3 I have so far, the other 2 being the starting ship and the Mantis ship from the Mantis quest. The parent ship has about double the cargo hold, more shield HP, and more engine power than the Mantis. It does have one less weapon slot, but you can compensate for that by putting a particle beam weapon (which does high damage to both shield and hull) in one slot and a EM weapon for quick subsystem disabling in the other slot.

Will likely be getting a new ship soon though as I just bought Piloting 3 which means I now have a B class Pilot's license and can fly B class ships.
