And confirms mods on Xbox


Speaking in a recent interview with Vandal, Pete Hines has confirmed that Starfield will not have mod support on PC at launch, but there will be mods after launch. Todd Howard said a while ago that the game will have “full mod support” similar to Bethesda‘s other games. Hines specified that they haven’t expanded on when exactly that will be, but players will get mods on both PC and Xbox after launch.

Maybe they think the game is so bad that it's not even worth modding?

Wow not looking good

 

[Roxkis_ii]

Welp, that saves me some money in the short term. Good luck to everyone else relying on Bethesda polish.

Edit: Never mind, their talking about official mods

 

[Bernkastel]

Thats not what it sounds like

Hablando de contenido, ¿habrá soporte para mods en PC en el lanzamiento?

En el lanzamiento no. Como hemos dicho, habrá mods después del lanzamiento. No hemos dicho cuándo, pero definitivamente los habrá, como siempre hemos hecho, en PC, y podrás usar mods tanto en PC como en Xbox.

 

[megatronium]

I assume mods will be available on Steam at launch, but not for the MS app version.

 

[Wooxsvan]

 

[Gameplay Gods Bless]

Groan.

 

[DeepEnigma]

 

[Montauk]

There will be mod support on XBOX? That’s great news. I hope that works well. That’s positive.

 

[Bernkastel]

Oh he is definitely talking about the Creation Club.

 

[rickybooby87]

 

[DenchDeckard]

All good, it's coming and to Xbox.

Let's gooooo!

 

[Matt_Fox]

I strongly suspect he is talking about the official Bethesda Mods site.

If you're using Steam and a third party mod site like Vortex / Nexus then that's outside of their purview.

 

[DeltaPolarBear]

*insert concern trolling here*

You console warriors don't realize that Bethesda is dependent on mods for their long term prospects?

I hope this is just implying no mod support for consoles. If it means no mod supports for PC then who is going to fix their bugs for them? I can say for real that it is not worth buying until the mods are available.

 

[Dcr1d3r]

Nothing to worry about guys....everything's gonna be just fine....

 

[Stitch]

Probably talking about that shitty, worthless creation club. I'm sure you can still throw some good old ESPs in the folder and make everyone's tits bigger.

Or its probably the Creation Club they are talking about. No one uses that though.

 

[Danknugz]

all i want to know is where i can go to do that xp glitch that bethesda always "forgets" to remove in the gold build

 

[adamsapple]

FYI, Fallout 4 mod support was also added post-launch. The game did not launch with mod support on PC.

Fallout 4's mod support on all platforms is on the way

Please proceed, GAF.

Yeah, GAF's gonna freak without verifying what he is talking about. He is talking about mods as "content", so ofcourse its creation club. No one gonna arrest you for making mods day one. OP didn't even bother putting his original statement.

 

[Topher]

First mod will be to add mod support.

 

[Bernkastel]

First mod will be to add mod support.

As in the Creation Club that no one likes.

Speaking of content, will there be support for mods on PC at launch?

Not at launch. As we said, there will be mods after launch. We haven't said when, but there definitely will be, as we always have, on PC, and you'll be able to use mods on both PC and Xbox.

Whew that’s a relief. I refuse to play this game unless my character looks like an anime blow-up doll

 

[Dynasty8]

So no DLSS mods on launch?

I'm on PC.

"long term prospects"? Did you not read the part where Pete said mod support will be added later?

 

[Thabass]

Disappointing, but not the biggest deal.

 

[Bernkastel]

You can still play as an anime blow-up doll. Just not from Bethesda's official mod store. But from nexus or patreon, like everyone else.

 

[twilo99]

XSS to blame

 

[gothmog]

This is why I'm doing gamepass on console at launch. Let all of this stuff settle down for a bit before I jump to PC.

 

[Pelao]

There will be mod support on XBOX? That’s great news. I hope that works well. That’s positive.

Hopefully someone will unlock the framerate, like with Fallout 4.

 

[Bernkastel]

DLSS mods aren't released on Creation Club.

 

[Bernkastel]

Skyrim got the Creation Club in 2017.

Fallout 4 at launch isn’t really a great comparison to be making here though, it was rough

 

[STARSBarry]

This is why I bought it on steam, its not like Microsoft will allow my bimbo boob mods on creation club. If the women don't look like a blow up doll in a permanent state of suprise, what's the point?

 

[GetInTheRobot]

Good? I think that the artist vision should be experienced first. People mod the hell out of a game before even playing the original vision

PC will have mods from day one, just not creation club crap.

 

[Adam_802]

Mods on Xbox is great to hear

Fallout 4 sucked at launch though.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

So err.. chop fucking chop??

 

[Bernkastel]

There already are Starfield mods before the game even launched. They all came out today.

I just need to add gore, let me rip limbs please.

 

[FoxMcChief]

I think some of you are confusing creation club mods with mods. Of course there will be pc mods.

And it’s great knowing mods will come to Xbox consoles.

ohh yeah thats the Creation Kit. I am curious if that will be available at launch. Fallout 4 still had mods at launch anyway.

The Creation Kit also took a few months to release for Skyrim (February 7th 2012 after the 11/11/11 launch).

It will have mods from day one on Nexus, it just won't be supported yet in an 'official' capacity.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

That's actually really disappointing.

Yeah, I'm sure Nexus will have "clean face" mods within minutes.
