Starfield Fan Build Perfectly Replicates Ship From An Iconic 80s Sci-Fi Comedy

The number of inventive ship builds possible in is undoubtely one of the game's biggest strengths, especially when players are able to take things a little further by using mods to create a uniquely iconic design. Shortly after 's release, the community flocked to the ship editor in an effort to build vehicles that resembled some of pop culture's most recognizable spacecrafts. While the base game provides plenty of options for building ships like the N-1 Starfighter or the USS Enterprise, third-party help is required to get the most out of the system.

Posted to Reddit by creator lililiilillil, the player shared an image of their ship that's built to closely resemble Eagle-5, the iconic vessel from the 1987 comedy

A parody of ' Millenium Falcon, Eagle-5 is a standard Winnebago RV equipped with a dorsal fin and jet engines capable of propelling it across the galaxy. Lililiilillil confirms that they used a range of mods to provide some of the custom parts that aren't available in, but the end result is fantastic; one could easily be fooled into thinking it's an official crossover event.

While the modular nature of 's ship-building system allows for plenty of creativity, there are some aspects that could be refined with expansions or DLC. As pointed out by lililiilillil,the game's painting options are very limited and don't provide the kind of customization one might need to authentically recreate the colour scheme of a reference ship. Whether this is an aspect that Bethesda is looking into remains to be seen but the studio has previously created a DLC that could serve as a template.

Shortly after launched, Bethesda released the add-on that featured some light story hooks, but rather focused on fleshing out the game's crafting mechanic. The DLC enabled the Sole Survivor to build and customize their own robots, equipping them with new parts to create some monstrous machines. The same system could apply to, adding new ship parts and tech to make the system even more
