Building An Outpost City In Starfield

I got hook to building outpost that I forgot the main quest.

Just annoying we don't have walls and gates.

Also if you miss getting the skills earlier on.

You can't make inter system cargo links.

How do you actually get your ship to loand on the landing pads? everytime I get to an outpost it always lands somewhere else.

Shame you can't get more that a few crew in it. I invite the spacers sometimes if my outpost feels lonely

Very cool!

all that for 3 people, wow...

It looks amazing, truly. A tip for bathrooms tho if I may, that I have found to look more natural. Build two hallways and build your bathroom there with a corner office wall for toilet privacy and put the sink on on the end of the hallway interior. Only downside is on the outside of the outpost the double hallway looks like it’s just sticking out with nothing to support it.

well done. you wasted a lot of time to build a completely useless outpost because the outpost system is pointless.

Dam until you mentioned having unlimited build limit I really wondered how the hell you built so many outpost corridors!! Those little suckers take up so much build limit even compared to other stuff although they are so much smaller

The lack of interior walls destroys this for me.

If you like builds you should try City Skylines. The game is beautiful, challenging and addictive.
This looks great btw. All i want is to build a settlement in Starfield and this has that settlement feel to it.

I spent hours building my outpost 😂

We need something that lets you rotate the pieces 45 degrees too

So...there's no stairwells. Who didn't think that up?

It’s amazing how much was missed with this game. Outposts suck, no space stations, can’t see the interiors when you build ships….like wtf

I love how limeted the setelment system is and how few distinct options were made for the game souly so that what players make wont outshine the "hand crafted" parts that tod boasts about, that of they didnt have time to make all the stuff as they promised (wonder which one is the case)
yet people are already making stuff like this that easily compeats with the "hand crafted" stuff in the game xD

You can build walls using cargo crates and foundations.

The mods are gonna make this so much better. Cmon boys x

You've really done an awesome job; especially since you did all of that with what little we have available atm! My single outpost has everything out in the elements lol

did they remove settlers because of game crashes like in fallout? it's pointless having an empty settlement.

If we could use certain parts from the ship builder, we might be able to make hotels or apartments with more decorative flair

I really hope theres a dlc where we can make our own starstation. Or perhaps a huge M class ship, where you can only be in orbit

This is so incredible!

What buttons are you pressing to make the building go up and down like that?

the 4 wall hab trick for stacking habs is pretty sick good looks

Dude so sweet.

I want to get into outposts so bad, but I’m so intimidated

I wanna see a sims type mod where the npc actually do thier own shit build etc

Bethesda went really light on outpost here since you can't make full fledged settlements even with their own artillery.

Because I guess a lot of people hated settlements, so they went really light here.
Another thing that irks me the most is that home decorations (aka homes in cities) do not come with optional furbished decorations that you can buy as well.

Yes it is okay to build everything but if I am renting a penthouse (dream home!) that is paid every week, it should have some nice decorations.

Ironically Crate being the cheapest, has a bed.

Nice Build! Plenty going on. One shot showed your Radar on the dirt (at the beginning), but I presume you will move that onto a roof (your preferred position) at some point. Keep it up!

The possibilities are endless.. cant wait for dlc and mods

You must be on PC.
I don't really have issues in Xbox Series X

What i want is npcs to do crap...i cant even get them to interact with the crafting stations in the hab, they just stand in the corner. At least in F4 they would sleep and bang hammers on walls to make it seem like they were doing things.

Been wanting to make New Olympia on earth for so long! This is gonna be amazing!

So Frustrating.. you say this is how you do it, and you lift the building up. but you don't show or give explanation of how to lift it. What key you use to lift it up on the higher foundation.

I just want them to fix the resource Flo so that one resource doesn't take up all the space in a container and cancels out the rest

The biggest problem with outpost builds is they don’t go with you to the next game life. It’s a fundamental change to Bethesda’s gaming model. And I think it’s a real shame.

Awesome ideas

Can you build 1 hab module and set it up like you want it. AND THEN copy paste the whole hab with internal setup? Apartment complex.

your ship's colors remind me of Evangelion

Outposts were 1000% a "throw it in there" last minute half-baked idea that they only added because of how popular it was in FO4. If only they spent more time on it.

Amazing build! Can't wait till either modders or a dlc comes along and adds to the outpost building

Beautiful 😮

I think the lighting is dependent on the room you're in, if it has a lot of windows, the game simulates the outside lighting so it doesn't look weird looking through the window, but if it's an enclosed space then the game fills it with bright lighting and if it's the air lock rooms, the game changes the lighting to simulate a dark room. Thing is, when moving from rooms the game quickly changes lighting so it looks bizarre.

Very cool outpost, hopefully Bethesda expands on it more. I didn't get to do much of it in Fallout as I was always restarting a playthrough to check new mods (I'm on Xbox so adding new mods are probably gonna break the game unless I do a new save file).

I'm trying to level up ship building and outpost but the outpost one is harder as I don't dabble in it much, I've only built one on Earth where I live and another one in a place I found from a video online to do some easy resource farm.

To bad your people dont really "live" in your outpost like they did in fallout

Needs a aliens colonial mod

I wanted ways, just to make it feel enclosed and like a real outpost. So I just put the big storage containers all around the border, and any gaps I put windmills or turrets.

Question- Can you enter console, click on an item, do typical operations like setpos y, modangle z 45, or set size, or placeatme, clone?

i would like to see a built city type deal filled with npc who just do thier thing like a sims sorta thing, riots, npc stealing , you know like the npc interacting with each other etc

Hopefully for dlc the will add spacestation builds

how do you have guards is this a in game thing or a mod
