Starfield Updates and Mod Support – September 13, 2023
bethesda.net
Thank you to all of you playing Starfield and your support. We are absolutely blown away by the response and all you love about the game. We’re also reading all your great feedback on what you’d like to see improved or added to the game. This is a game we’ll be supporting for years and years to come, so please keep all the feedback coming!

*CRAP lol it was pointed out that the FOV/brightness/DLSS stuff will come in FUTURE updates. I really should have waited to see the update in action before posting that original title. Was confused at why I couldn’t find the settings. Sorry for anyone that got confused by me :(

First, an enormous thank you to all of you playing Starfield and your support. We are absolutely blown away by the response and all you love about the game. We’re also reading all your great feedback on what you’d like to see improved or added to the game. This is a game we’ll be supporting for years and years to come, so please keep all the feedback coming! Even if we don’t get to your requests immediately, we’d love to do it in the future, like city maps. Our priority initially is making sure any top blocker bugs or stability issues are addressed, and adding quality-of-life features that many are asking for.

This first update is a small hotfix targeted at the few top issues were are seeing. After that, expect a regular interval of updates that have top community requested features including: Brightness and Contrast controls HDR Calibration Menu FOV Slider Nvidia DLSS Support (PC) 32:9 Ultrawide Monitor Support (PC) Eat button for food!

We’re also working closely with Nvidia, AMD, and Intel on driver support, and each update will include new stability and performance improvements. Additionally, we are working on our built-in mod support (Creations) that will work across all platforms similar to what we’ve done with Skyrim and Fallout 4. This full support is planned to launch early next year. Until then, we know our PC community is already very active in the modding space and if you have any feedback on how we can make this better, please let us know . Modding and creating in our games will always be a vital and important part of who we are, and we love seeing the community get off to such a strong start. Keep the feedback coming, we really do read it all, and thank you all again for taking this journey with us!

      Hey turns out I was a fool and didn’t read the post right before posting here.

      They said they will add these things in FUTURE updates. This one was only for general big fixes. Sorry for confusing people.

        Most modern games set it between 70-90 and which is acceptable for most. in FPS game some people can have motion sickness with smaller FOV. Seeing as the FOV is adjustable in the .ini, it’s a user-accessibly setting. They just didn’t bother programming a UI element for it.

        I totally appreciate how many mea culpas you have issued for that error. I read it the same way you did, at first.

          Yeah I felt bad for misleading people. Made sure I replied to everyone again to clarify it. Those features were the main thing that stops me from playing more than 30 minutes at one time. The FOV combined with the dark HDR/contrast made me feel like I was looking in tunnel vision when playing.
