It feels like they didn't play their own game at all, and I'm not exaggerating. What the actual fuck?
Why is the ship combat so poorly balanced in Starfield?

because it's a hackjob they spent very little time on just to tick the box of "space ship combat"
What's the problem with the balancing? Are enemy ships too strong or the opposite? Is it a problem with a certain weapon class?
Ground combat is braindead and easy.
Starship combat is braindead but you get melted at the same difficulty settings.
>Ground combat is braindead and easy.
So there's a problem with that balancing too in your opinion? If it's too hard then try a starsystem with a higher level.
>Starship combat is braindead but you get melted at the same difficulty settings.
Fighting against multiple ships at a time is supposed to be challenging but it's doable. FYI, you should not stay in one place and just shoot the enemy ships. You have to maneuver around them and use asteroids as cover.
BUT ANON IT'S BRAINDEAD WHICH IS WHY I CANT STOP DYING AND GETTING REKT WHILE REFUSING TO TRY TO ACTUALLY GET AROUND BEING KILLED
the worst part is hes calling it unbalanced like it's a multiplayer fps or something
>unbalanced like it's a multiplayer fps or something
moron what the fuck are you even saying? This is the dumbest post I've seen on Ganker and that's saying a lot.
its an rpg of course its unbalanced you improve your character by playing so you can fight higher level enemies
Stat points isnt an rpg mechanic. 5% to damage isnt role-playing. Getting real sick of nuGanker these days. The youth are so retarded that this board has become a bunch of confident dipshits eagerly ruining vidya. Thank god their idea of an rpg isnt the mainstream yet.
>Stat points isnt an rpg mechanic
show me a single rpg without xp/levelling kek
>Getting real sick of nuGanker these days.
It's literally a mechanic from tabletop RPGs you moron
>5% to damage
t. didn't play the game
In fact the perks are a little too impactful, you can't pickpocket, properly stealth, craft, use jetpacks, use or fly practically any advanced ships, and have almost no dialogue alternatives for quests unless you invest in specific perk points.
How do you get around being killed? You just lock in on a ship and fire all your weapons to whittle down their health bar. It's the turkey puncher minigame with missiles and a laser.
use your boost to get behind them, if fighting multiple enemies disable one ships engines then run away to make it 1v1 instead of 1v2, get better guns for your ship, lasers for shields ballistics for hull. Literally just use your brain.
>Starship combat is braindead but you get melted at the same difficulty settings.
If you need to quick save every five seconds then you're not outsmarting the game.
PERKS RETARD
PERKS
UNLOCK THEM
>We came up with a perk tree
>Oh cool, what does it do?
>Half the perks are useless and the other half is mandatory to beat the game
BRAVO TODD
NO PERK IS USELESS
scanning perk literally give you dialogues to complete missions
Radiant missions which are garbage and send you to the same shitty mining post poi every fucking time
exploration missions are the best part of the game retard.
allow me to explore as much i want and even being payed for it
>Radiant missions
Those are supposed to be for the RP autists or people who have no main missions or sidequests left lol. That's always been the case.
>NO PERK IS USELESS
The research one is hot trash because you only research things once.
>>Half the perks are useless and the other half is mandatory to beat the game
Just like Fallout 4
you dont need perks just ship upgrades
This. You don't have to enter the shipbuilder a single time. Just garden gnome up a large amount of credits and buy a good ship.
Because the entire game is poorly designed. It isn't even a proper RPG.
>It isn't even a proper RPG.
who ever bought it expecting that you get what you bought.
Its been so long since I've played a vanilla Bethesda game I can't even gauge how much worse this is than their usual shit. Ship combat is easy as fuck though, the only truly essential skill if all you're doing is story stuff is the Targetting skill as it acts like VATS for your ship and slows things down/targets subsystems. Just strip all your weapons and load your ship only with particle weps, as many as you can without going overdrawn on power. EZ.
>warp into new system
>ship is shooting at me
>shoot back and blow it up
>barrett and sarah both want to talk to me about not being a psychopath
The morality in this game is fucking weird. There is literally nothing wrong with self defense
they're british
