Modders are already teaming up to work on a big Starfield bug patch

With every major Bethesda game comes a flurry of mods and typically, one of the most installed mods is an unofficial patch that fixes bugs that have persisted in Creation Engine games. There were heavily-downloaded unofficial patches for Skyrim, Fallout 4 and soon, Starfield will join that list. 

Starfield is still some ways off from release, but the modding community is already organising behind the scenes and planning for its launch. As reported by PCGamesN, a group of modders have already begun planning the Starfield Community Patch, which will aim to address bugs in the game that Bethesda may have missed.

Some of the issues the patch will look to address include misplaced objects, script errors, game-breaking exploits and even spelling errors.

Bethesda is currently in the final stretch of development on Starfield. Originally the game was planned for November 2022, but ahead of E3 season, the game was pushed to the first half of 2023. While the delay was disappointing, Todd Howard did deliver an excellent gameplay presentation during the Xbox and Bethesda showcase.

KitGuru Says: Starfield is a huge game with multiple planets, custom space ships and more, which means there's a lot of room for things to go wrong. Historically, most Bethesda titles have released with bugs, but hopefully between official and unofficial patches, things will be ironed out quickly after launch.

Black Ops 6 is officially here, bringing the innovative new Omni-movement system to the game. While on the surface a relatively simple change, I argue that Treyarch intimately studied DOOM and the past 30 years of first-person shooter evolution to craft one of the most satisfying gameplay systems yet.
