Yes, but I'm glad my expectations were lowered before I played it since it was hyped up to be more than just another open world Bethesda game. It's fun for what it is and I really appreciate that being encumbered doesn't reduce your run speed, it just makes your stamina (oxygen) lower as if you were sprinting. I've been able to realize my dream of looting absolutely every piece of garbage (that isn't marked as stealing) and selling it when I get back to a city, whereas in previous Bethesda games I had to actually be selective in what I took.
It's a great feature. Works incredibly well on low g planets when you're far from your ship.
I've stopped hoarding resources though, it has got out of hand. Haven't figured out where to store it all off ship. All the outpost storage at my current level seems pretty low.
I bought the Econohaul ship at New Atlantis ASAP to keep all my junk I may never even use. At over 2900 I've only managed to fill it about halfway so far.
That's a good idea. I do need to hoard more crap!
This might be a bug….but you can use Econohaul to add stuff to storage, then switch to another ship and it all just stays in storage. You can’t ADD anything until you switch back. But there doesn’t seem to be any downside otherwise!
I wondered what would happen if you did that since most can't hold as much. So the new ship just gets "overfilled", as it were, but still works? Great tip! Seems worth having a ship with the highest cargo capacity as well as one with the best stats in all other areas, then.
The Lodge Basement has an Infinite Mass Storage Unit.
Thanks!
