The last big one update 1.8.86 for the game Starfield was released on November 20 and followed the previously released beta update 1.8.83 (see our article). The biggest benefit back then was the overall performance boost as well as the addition of DLSS support including frame generation and Nvidia Reflex Low Latency for GeForce graphics cards.
A small one followed on the first of December beta update 1.8.87 as a fix for two specific bugs, which made it to the standard version a few days ago on December 11th in the form of update 1.8.88. The pace of releasing major updates is thus relatively slow for a game of this importance, due to which the criticism from players intensifies.
And now it happened that Bethesda on She commented on Reddit update announcement 1.8.88 and stated that it is preparing a big update for the beginning of 2024, which will bring not only support for AMD FSR 3 a Intel XeSSbut also many bug fixes regarding active missions (in-progress quest fixes). And he adds that although many errors have already been fixed in earlier updates so that players do not encounter them, it is much more difficult to fix them in situations where this has already happened, if the relevant mission is already active. It is said that they have created a new system that should help them solve just such problems, in order to avoid the fact that players would have to upload an earlier saved position for the next continuation, which would not yet be marked by the occurrence of the given error.
Furthermore, the plan is to issue larger updates regularly at approximately 6-week intervals and possibly smaller hotfixes with corrections of individual problems in between. Specifically, we can look forward to:
- City maps
- Support for modifications
- New ways to travel
In conclusion, it was stated that for every minor change (fixes, new features) they spend a lot of time testing it considering how large a game it is.
