Unleash your creativity with Starfield Spaceship's mind-boggling layout featuring an astonishing 30 sets of ladders Explore the endless possibilities of ship design as one daring player pushes the boundaries of complexity and challenges conventional optimization techniques
Highlights
In Starfield, the ship builder empowers players to craft diverse designs; however, not all of these designs are suitable for regular gameplay due to intricate interior layouts and an excessive reliance on ladders.
A player has ingeniously crafted a design that features an exhaustingly long 30-ladder pathway stretching from the entrance all the way to the cockpit. Although this design deliberately contradicts the fundamental gameplay principles of Starfield, it undeniably demonstrates exceptional levels of creativity.
The ship builder in Starfield allows players to construct a wide variety of imaginative creations, including some that are not intended for friendly purposes, such as one player's vessel designed for masochistic purposes. During Starfield Direct's in-depth presentation in June 2023, the modular ship builder was hailed as the most impressive feature, and it has only gained more popularity since its launch. Excited players have been enthusiastically sharing their designs on social media, ranging from original creations to faithful replicas.
In addition to the visual and creative aspects, the ship builder system also incentivizes players to create intelligent designs by equipping them with the best weapons and engines available. Without investing points into Starship Design, players may need to acquire advanced ship modules from various sources, such as the Crimson Fleet, Spacer, or House Va'ruun. However, not all of these designs are practical for regular gameplay, as some may have interior layouts that are overly complex and uncomfortable for players.
The prevalence of ladders in Starfield ships has been a major annoyance for players, causing many to choose designs that eliminate their use. However, Spareparts2104 decided to challenge this by creating a deliberately complex layout, sharing the results on the official Starfield subreddit. This unconventional design boasts a 30-ladder pathway from the entrance to the cockpit, providing a challenging and tiring experience for most players.
Compounding the issue, the ship also has very limited storage capacity. In Starfield, having a cargo hold large enough to store the valuable resources gathered from planetary surveys is crucial. Despite deliberately going against the core ship gameplay principles of Starfield, Spareparts2104's design showcases an impressive level of creativity.
When Starfield officially receives modding tools in early 2024, it is likely that mods will provide a solution for ladders, whether it be through alternative habitats or some other means. At present, the details regarding the Shattered Space DLC are scarce, but Bethesda may also offer an alternative to ladders in their official content. However, for now, players of Starfield will need to find workarounds for the limitations of the ship builder if they want to maximize their builds. Starfield is currently available for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
