In Starfield there are planets with low gravity, which can lead to quite curious and funny moments. A player was so confused by a situation that he wondered if his aimed headshot missed.
On Reddit, Unf0cused shares a video on September 14 where he shoots an enemy in Starfield in the head. The enemy seems initially unimpressed, confusing the player. He aimed precisely at the head.
While there is no skill that increases headshot chances, there are many others that are very helpful:
“I didn’t know Starfield had a cartoon mode”
Why did the enemy react slowly to the shot? The player Unf0cused is according to the display on his watch in Starfield on the planet Pontus, which seems to have low gravity.
In the video on Reddit, it is clearly visible how he aims at the head of the enemy and pulls the trigger. For about 2 seconds, however, nothing happens – except that the player receives 16 XP. Does that mean he has killed an enemy?
A moment later, the game rewards him and the enemy falls in slow motion.
You can see the funny situation in the 14-second video on Reddit. It is titled “For a moment I thought I missed.” As of September 15, the post has already received over 8,000 upvotes and 220 comments:
This is what other players say about it: In the comments, some users discuss how firing bullets behaves – or should behave – in such an environment. Others describe funny situations they have experienced themselves in Starfield.
The user Sir-Cellophane comments that he accidentally killed 4 civilians with a grenade. They all fell in slow motion at the same time, despite normal gravity – he couldn’t stop laughing. Others have experienced situations where dead enemies simply stood still.
Another user describes that he set fire to an enemy’s backpack and the enemy was “thrown like a rocket against a low ceiling, in which his head was stuck. He then hung down from the ceiling, like in Looney Tunes.” A user notes: “I didn’t know this game had a cartoon mode.”
Starfield delights especially through the charming details that players can discover on their adventurous journeys through space, during spontaneous missions, and in side quests.
In a special side quest, you float weightlessly through the corridors of a spaceship while fighting space pirates and are supposed to steal alcohol:
You shouldn’t miss a brilliant quest in Starfield, as you have to fight pirates weightlessly
