Update 1.7.33 Fixes and Improvements

Removes Vendor's Chests

Starfield - Removes Vendor
One of the notable points is that the fix “Addressed an issue that allowed for a vendor’s full inventory to be accessible” which removes vendor's chests in the game's world.

This means that exploits that let you access vendor's chests such as the Puddle Glitch, Boost Pack Glitch in New Atlantis, and Stroud-Eklund Staryard glitch no longer work as of Version 1.7.33

List of Exploits

Fixes a Few Minor Bugs

The Update 1.7.33 Patch contains just a few minor bug fixes, none of which have really been significantly reported by players to our knowledge.

On the page containing the patch, the developers again state that they “are continuing to work on a larger update that will add features and improvements”, so fans should look forward to larger patches coming soon which will address quality-of-life issues directly.
