It's actually not that rare. I encountered already a few. And on hard mode, you have more swarmlings overall

It’s not very rare! It’s on every other moon you land on!

I found this one today too for the first time. 400+ hours played.

450 hours in and stumbled across it only last week! Fantastic POI.

I've run into quite a few of these. On one planet, I found two in the same landing zone less than a kilometer apart!

I’ve done four of these rigs and on frozen moons as you said. . Used phase time a lot to take out three or four Swarmlings and or sisters at a time using a maxed out Orion. Involved a bit of jumping around to give myself some space. No pun intended!!😃 I would have put a load of frag mines in front of that door if you had any.

Have found that one.....has anyone else found the Party Ship??? Just found that yesterday....crazy!

i've found it twice. First time it took me about 45 minutes total since I was exploring the entire thing. Second time time took me about 30. Just take plenty of ammo and a good automatic weapon

I found one while collecting powers in NG+. I saw it in the distance once I landed and was going to check it out after the temple. After the temple fog rolled in and I could no longer see it so it took forever to find it as it was far enough away it didn't show up on the compass.

I've come across 3 of them so far. A real joy! It's even tied to a quest in Cydonai, if so it should be a repeatable area you can return to. I haven't tried that but I will after this video presented it. It might be interesting to see if the location is solid.

I’ve ran into these a few times. It’s a fun place to practice boostpacking(depending on gravity)and shooting your targets. Fun looting place.

I’ve found it once. At least I think I have. The swarm is familiar along with all the dead people and the dual structures. Oh, and the food thief message😁

Yeah, i have one of these near an outpost. So i can pop over to check on the beasties occasionally. Once a Claymore III landed there, so i was able to steal the ship, kill its crew and then i had a quick get away after clearing the POI.

I have come across this twice., usually on cold icy moons.

Watched this video for the first time last night. Today I jump into Starfield, jump to Cruth for the very first time and the first spot I landed this base was like a 100m from where I landed. I immediately recognized it from your video

Funny how Starfield loaded this place up with enemies but they won't add more enemy npc's to every other facility on moons and planets. Most places you get maybe a dozen pirates, spacers, ecliptic or va'run, doesn't matter how big the place is, making xp grinding just a chore. I play on Xbox and am lvl 174 now not using exploits like animal farms and have been in every type of facility in game and my interest in the game is plummeting because of Bethesda's absolute refusal to add more enemy bodies to hunt. That mining platform would be a helluva LOT BETTER and actually FUN if they put 100 pirates, spacers, ecliptic or va'run on it.

Funny. I just did this one today and then stumbled on this video. Ironically, I was on a low gravity moon and had boosted far above the platform. I'm also a stealth build with stealth composites on my space suit and equipped with a craft Hard Target. Just plinked them all from above. Great exp farm for sure.

lol. Just got it my first time last night.

Your basic scanner can tell you what it is, you don't need upgrades. At least clicking on the symbol it has will turn to the one that says structure. You have to be closer to get it to tell you exactly what it is.

I came across one of these today. It was super glitched. No bodies. No loot. And lots of items hanging in the air. Hopefully, the next one will be normal.

Found early in my first game and found on every + games! It's apart of the ship you find in a different orbit that all crew are dead and the alpha is on that ship.

I've run into this place three or four times and I get swarmed every time. I just avoid it now.

You should play this without the boost hack, much tougher. Seen this around 5 times and the first I was very low level so it was well hard, enjoy.

Nice mission indeed. a Real pain on lower weapon skills and/or not having the right weapon at all

I found this about an hour before I watched this vid :) Timing is everything! ;)~

I’ll call them Lobstrosities after the creatures in Stephen King’s The Drawing of the Three/Dark Tower series.

It's not that rare anymore, it took me a long time before I found one, but now they pop up now and then. I think they added more of these and everything else. I actually found a new one last night it was a small mining rig with dead miners and one of the miners has a slate that's voice acted and it's a good bye to his wife and kid, a real tear jerker, and your quested to bring the slate to his wife.

I've found it a few times. Explored it once then said screw the others

Seen it 2-3 times...the aliens suck and are a waste of ammo just for 1 legendary...not worth it. But it was cool the first time.

There is a hidden weapon box if your run around from where you are now at the end to the top to the other building. Sometimes it spawns a legendary item.

hmm the moon for me says abandoned mineral mine, maybe i will check it out

I thought it was rare but I’ve played barely over 100 hours and found it 3 times already

found it on a planet and my ship landet direct on the landingplatform there. (i think i saw it directly in the planetview and clicked land, to be honest)

The location is semi rare. I do get them popping up every now and then in the level 75 systems. Takes me about 10 minutes or less to clear it out. Some good exp to get. Depending on what level system and level of the player will dictate how long it can take to clear it out. So far the rarest unique location I have encountered is the Deserted Freestar Compound. I have only stumbled upon it once in a level 75 system. It's pretty cool and even has a switch you can activate which turns on a funky music tune you can hear all over the place

I’m sad I’ve lost interested already of Starfield. Lasted like a couple months.

I've made about 16 trips through the Unity, and I think I only ran across this place naturally, once.

i've run into the research tower a few times, but they spawn randomly. In my game there's nothing on that moon.

We need more of these in future updates.

Oh wow a legendary item! I cant wait! Im gonna go there right away, play through that hour long dungeon and get me that legendary item that I will immedately sell because its not worth a damn thing.

Oh yeah, ran into this the other day. Only once so far though.

I’ve never found it on a moon, only planets

cool, I'm part of the 1% 😎😎😎😎 Can't remember where did I find it but I did. Fun place to level up a little more

It spawned on the first moon I ever visited. I died 5times exploring it.

I climbed onto the platform , landing the ship on it. .

I was lucky to find one. I can see it from my Outpost the is located close to it.

I needed some new locations

Found it on Nemeria II-A

I have over 20 days and I have never come across this platform. Curious...

I missed the rare item the first time second time got a furious microgun. 😅

Found it on Titan running around scanning stuff

Why do you always have no ammo for your guns

Found one laying by happen stance.

Hardly rare. Found these on loads of moons. On one moon it was there three times.

LOL, just found it 🤣 There goes my lottery ticket 🤣

Are these level specific?

yep been hear ..

I found this place twice on very easy

Anyone else found the magma research lab?

Only time I’ll b in the 1%

yeah did it no legendry item

Yeah, I've hit this structure at least 4 times. The first time was a bit unnerving, how fast they came at me. Now, I know exactly how to take them down. Boost Pack, Boost Pack, Boost pack. Keep high up, bounce from one side to another/high point to another. Take out the 'queens asap,' the swarmlings die quick esp to the revenant, or a magshear. Ext mag is almost required, as when they come at you, it's a hoard of them at once. Reload in the air, land on another high spot and mow down some more. I remember being on the upper outside, of the platform & like 30 or more ran between the platforms in that upper hallway, then poured out an open door(first time). I got over whelmed right then, on my first time dealing with them, the queens came out, got hit by one & got Eliminated. The other times, since then, I have found them while setting up outposts on Airless Moons. They have only for me shown up on planets, WITHOUT an Atmosphere.

Found 2 in the Sol system, clickbait video. I seriously need to stream, most of the streamers don't really know the games they play.
