Players have stumbled across yet another strange bug inStarfield,except this time, it can actually help you progress.
The more players explore the bleak and somewhat lifeless expanse that isStarfield, the more weird goings on they tend to find. While some are there to help you, such as the bug that lets yousteal the best spacesuit in the game, others can be a massive hindrance. Many fans of the outer space RPG have unfortunately found that out the hard way, as somelose the ability to fire a gunmid-battle.
Luckily, this new bug seems to be of the former variety, as it can massively help players who want to stay on a tight budget. It was discovered by Twitter userJamieMoranUKwho posted a video detailing the bug.
In the video, you can see aStarfieldcharacter slowly approach a puddle that lies outside the Shepherds storefront in Akila City. Once in front of the puddle, all you have to do is look into it, and then you’ll be able to access every single item in the aforementioned store for free. If you also wait 24 hours and come back to that exact spot, you’ll be able to get this wonderful bargain all over again.
This is a great way to save some cash and grab some essential supplies for your great adventure into the unknown. There’s everything you could want in this store, such as ship parts, med kits, and a ton of ammo.
While this most likely won’t work on every store you encounter, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, because who knows how else you could get free stuff in this quirky universe? However, it’s best to capitalize on this puddle now, as it may not last long inStarfieldif Bethesda Game Studios patches it out.
