The devs reached out to thank the Starfield<\/em> Reddit community on Dec. 11 in a patch notes thread covering the game’s most recent update, which sought to fix the “pet asteroid” bug<\/a> plaguing pilots since September.

The devs said they had been working to fix many of the game’s bugs and issues, but also to implement a variety of features many have been requesting since the game went live in early September<\/a>. Included in the list are new city maps for better navigation, as well as mod support and more common bug fixes\u2014something the community has been hungry for<\/a> since launch.<\/p>
Also mentioned: A “new way to travel.” The devs kept their cards close to the chest, but the very mention sent fans into a frenzy in the comments, guessing at what Bethesda means by the planned feature. “Imagine you ‘subdue’ an alien-horse mount and ride it across the plains completing quests,” one optimistic fan proclaimed<\/a>, going so far as to suggest Bethesda will let us name the mount and make riding equipment for it.<\/p>
This said it might be time to jump back into Starfield<\/em> over the holidays if the game is set to receive plenty more alongside its first DLC, Shattered Space<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
