subnautica-chat

[torpid vale]

Why is my dog built like a limestone outcrop 💔

[ivory island]

alr lol i wont

[astral dome]

has anyone had that expierence on their first subnautica gameplay is having your entire inventory filled with acid mushrooms

[ivory island]

i never did that for some reason

nor was my first instinct to go to the back of the aurora or even to go to the aurora at all

[cobalt sphinx]

No. I realised you could pin recipes from the start and only ever grabbed what I needed

Crop your damn images.

[torpid vale]

@ivory island wdym pronouns just aren't your thing (just curious)

[narrow topaz]

im a hoarder so yeah having like 20 million acid mushrooms was embarrassingly common

[narrow topaz]

getting a base started though(!) so my pockets will be empty often

[ivory island]

as in i find it hard to keep up with it all lmao

[torpid vale]

There's not much to keep up with. Call people what they wanna be called tbh

Or is my dog built like a shale outcrop 🤔

[ivory island]

i mean trying to keep up and remember with how many different ones people have like i struggle with names let alone a second one to remember 😭

[torpid vale]

Fiarrr

[torpid vale]

REAL

DAMN!!
ahh pfp

He's quite portly

[limber whale]

just strafe

a and d keys

oh yeah that SUCKS

hide the seamoth

oh damn

you know what that means

[astral dome]

gng what biome should i go

[limber whale]

you see, violence against innocent leviathans is never the answer.

it is a question.

[wild mirage]

Crash zone

[limber whale]

and in this case, the answer is yes.

[nova chasm]

proof?

[limber whale]

@wild mirage dont react with an X to me. instead, stasis rifle thermoblade.

[astral dome]

[wild mirage]

You asked i answered

[astral dome]

yes! seaglide! hurrah!!!

and i discovered a deeper part of kelp forest

im slowly not becoming scared of this game gng

aint no way i already needed 1 more ingredient

c o n v i e n i e n t
i guess

[limber whale]

what is that contrast

mf is playing the game with the saturation and contrast turned up to maximum

[narrow topaz]

looks like a console port

[limber whale]

ok so get on top of your lifepod and look directly at the aurora. face west. turn VERY slightly to the left. swim in a straight line.

[wild mirage]

Isn't it minimum? Considering there's no contrast

[limber whale]

idk

[wild mirage]

Fair enough

[astral dome]

i aint stupid

[limber whale]

damn 😭

[astral dome]

thats the crash zone wasd

[narrow topaz]

0.8 hull strength

[astral dome]

yeah

[limber whale]

what no

thats swimming in a straight line to the aurora

[wild mirage]

Wrong, west is the dunes.

[astral dome]

thats nice

[limber whale]

both of you are wrong. im using the aurora as an anchor point. im pointing him toward the northern blood kelp

[wild mirage]

Map is annoying, flashlight better

[narrow topaz]

careful

[wild mirage]

Sure you are 😭

My point stands

[astral dome]

are you dragging me to the ghost leviathan-

[wild mirage]

There isn't one there

[limber whale]

look directly at the aurora, face west from your position, youre looking at the underwater islands. very slightly left and theres the northern blood kelp

[astral dome]

brain aneyursm

[limber whale]

there is. northeast in the northern blood kelp

[wild mirage]

Bruv, the aurora lies in the east 😭
You can use it for reference

[wild mirage]

Oh I thought you meant the trench

[limber whale]

im using it as an anchor point because james likely doesnt have the compass yet

[astral dome]

already had

[limber whale]

oh

[wild mirage]

Lmao

[limber whale]

im 7 hours in and still havent found it

[astral dome]

just get copper wire and wiring kit bruv

[wild mirage]

I think its a databox in a lifepod iirc

[limber whale]

its a blueprint

[astral dome]

was gonna say that its a blueprint too

gng why is it daytime already in this game

day and night cycle tweaking

[wild mirage]

30 minutes day, 15 or 20 night, right?

[limber whale]

bro is NOT on my seamoth lmao

also if you had an EXTREMELY quick day/night cycle then it was probably an eclipse

[narrow topaz]

you can color the seamoth?

[limber whale]

yeah

[narrow topaz]

hot

[astral dome]

guys i think i found the mushroom forest biome

[limber whale]

nope. jellyshroom cave

[astral dome]

fair enough

[narrow topaz]

the scan room is super cool

[limber whale]

has some really important blueprints though

[narrow topaz]

except i want to find diamonds smh

[limber whale]

pretty sure theyre right next to the entrance closest to the aurora

[narrow topaz]

what a pretty game

my base is down here

[limber whale]

chat i found lifepod 6 without the radio

my search for laser cutter frags has brought me far and wide

[narrow topaz]

trying to get the second moonpool fragment and mod station

[tall briar]

cloud wall looks weird from the cyclop's cameras

[astral dome]

evaporation

why arent the reefback leviathan spawning

[limber whale]

why cant i find any laser cutters

ive gone to almost every wreck in the grassy plateus

welp

found the last propulsion cannon frag

thats at least something

[astral dome]

where do i find more seamoth fragments gng

[limber whale]

southern grassy plateaus

[astral dome]

aight

why do i hear reefback leviathan roar

[limber whale]

reefbacks are nearby

quick FYI tiger plants grow on them and they hurt

[astral dome]

did this guy just spawn out of nowhere

i feel like the leviathan's idk 3 tail stuff on their back are static

[limber whale]

reefbacks

[limber whale]

they might be on lower graphics settings

havent checked cause i always play on max graphics with motion blur off

this wreck in particular has a lot of seamoth frags nearby (i scanned them all in this screenshot)

[astral dome]

i should get the rebreather first before going deeper

[limber whale]

you dont really need it

unless youre planning on staying down there a lot or going REALLY deep you can get by just fine without it

[astral dome]

i kinda need it so that the pda doesnt say "oxygen efficency decreased" or smth

[wild mirage]

Helps with oxygen efficiency

[limber whale]

enzyme peeper

[wild mirage]

But its not a necessity

[wild mirage]

Its peeing, let it pee in peace.

[limber whale]

no.

i parimeter defensed it :3

[astral dome]

did i just sacrifice my wiring kit for a advanced one

[wild mirage]

Wait..
No as in its not peeing or
No as in you won't let it pee, peacefully-

[limber whale]

yes

[astral dome]

sob

[wild mirage]

Dw its advanced

[limber whale]

dw theres a lot of sandstone outcrops in the sparse reef if you make pipes to go that deep

its right before the southwestern mass of coulds

over that way

[wild mirage]

Yeah just go to lifepod 19

[limber whale]

CHAT

I FOUND IT

last laser cutter frag

i can do aurora now without missing anything

[astral dome]

do yall think they look similar

[limber whale]

not at all

[wild mirage]

Bro 😭

[limber whale]

also im trying to be less scared while playing so do i take a dip

[astral dome]

ghost leviathan

[wild mirage]

Let's go

[wild mirage]

There isn't one there.

[limber whale]

this is the trench it swaps its ghost leviathan and crabsquids for like a single warper

[wild mirage]

Its got a couple ampeels

[narrow topaz]

pain. where?

[astral dome]

gng what does grim looking snake mean i heard from a guy in the radio

[wild mirage]

It means snake

[limber whale]

jellyshroom cave enemy

[wild mirage]

Go to the lifep9d and you'll see

[limber whale]

i found mine in the northern mushroom forest (the one next to the dunes)

[narrow topaz]

next to the dunes...

(dont fear) the reaper

[ivory island]

speaking of seeing reapers and the dunes
leme send something rq

[limber whale]

this is actually pretty peaceful when there isnt a full 360 range you can be attacked from

[ivory island]

i reaally got to see a reaper up close in personal

and survived somehow 😭

the video is taking a minute to send though since its 48 megabytes

[limber whale]

you think thats cool, i strafed a reaper and ran away screaming.

[ivory island]

trust me what happened to me is even cooler

[astral dome]

aw sweet, quest objectives my favorite

[ivory island]

almost sent

[limber whale]

theres deep shrooms in the blood kelp trench

[ivory island]

i almost had a heart attack bro 😭

[limber whale]

WOAH

[ivory island]

yea 😭

do you see what i mean now

[limber whale]

yes

[astral dome]

thanks for the seamoth fragment lifepod 17

[ivory island]

bro was even quiet for the entire visit and left without a sound 😭
that was the most polite reaper ever

[limber whale]

fr all the ones ive seen are loud as hell

do biomes have music or did a really good music track just start playing when i entered the blood kelp trench

cause this is a banger

chat i encountered the blood kelp trench warper

as expected, i ran away screaming

warpers are more dangerous than reapers on god

oh nah thats just jimmy hes chill

he might come over to take a playful nibble but thats about it

also how do you not have ultra high capacity o2 tank yet

get the ultra high capacity o2 tank before you go to the lost river bro 😭

bro ignored the 225 o2

then whats the point of going down that far

you dont need lost river materials for the prawn suit

oh

based base location

(pun fully intended)

[narrow topaz]

(good pun)

[limber whale]

(thank you)

[narrow topaz]

(you're welcome)

[limber whale]

hey @astral dome quick tip, DO NOT GO THAT WAY if you end up stumbling across it

that is by far the worst entry point to the northern blood kelp

[narrow topaz]

i wonder if there's a mod that replaces alterra lady's voice with ADA from satisfactory...

[limber whale]

going across the underwater islands border is infinitely better

chat am i ready to go to the aurora

[astral dome]

rifle and propulsion yea

[limber whale]

ok

ok

[livid light]

do you have a texture pack on cos it looks good

[limber whale]

no i just have max graphics

[livid light]

can you play mp?

[narrow topaz]

i've noticed my playthrough start to plateau in progression

[astral dome]

gng what do yall do when you're bored in subnautica

beautiful

[torpid summit]

where are the parts for the mobile vehicle bay

[jaunty cosmos]

Someone said kelp forest

im gonna try to find them too

[torpid summit]

ok

[astral dome]

yey i got seamoth

blueprint

oh i need mobile vehicle bay

sob

[cold palm]

the worst feeling you can get while playing this game

[wild mirage]

that and exiting without saving after a while

[cold palm]

finally unlocked this blueprint! oh i need 27 other things i have no idea how to get

[harsh bear]

much worse feelings in the game

[cold palm]

oh pain 😔

[wild mirage]

tbf the vehicle bay is found scattered throughout the kelp forest so its not that hard

but still, doesnt feel good when you realise

[torpid summit]

is the kelp forest close to spawn

[cold palm]

yeah 💔

[cold palm]

they're basically everywhere if you go out of spawn

[torpid summit]

ok

[cold palm]

borders it on all sides mostlt

[astral dome]

should i go

[jaunty cosmos]

Yes

If u have a seamoth

[astral dome]

why is it getting deeper

[jaunty cosmos]

Ok head back..

[cold palm]

you can keep goin man

[harsh bear]

no reason to head back

100 meters ain't nothing

[astral dome]

yeah the fog is making me uneasy, thanks reefback leviathan

[jaunty cosmos]

I can only find 1 vehicle bay fragment 💀

[astral dome]

plus my seaglider battery died

[jaunty cosmos]

Wait what does eclipses do

[cold palm]

being scared is top 5 reasons people never end up beating the game, you gotta be confident to go new places

[cold palm]

it just makes it dark

[harsh bear]

change the lighting for a tiny bit

[astral dome]

well i gotta get propulsion cannon incase of a leviathan attack

[cold palm]

propulsion cannons don't affect leviathans

you gotta get a stasis rifle

[jaunty cosmos]

Y'all where r these fragments😅

[astral dome]

oh i forgot about the stasis rifle

yeah i was talking about the stasis rifle

[cold palm]

they're "around"

[astral dome]

where do i obtain stasis rifle gng

[wild mirage]

Is it weird that 100 m used to feel scary when we all first played

[astral dome]

fog so scary wahh wahh herobrine

[cold palm]

i used to be scared to go 2 meters towards the aurora 💔

[jaunty cosmos]

Are the vehicle bay fragments at life pod 3

[wild mirage]

😔 I was scared of the reapers fr

[cold palm]

there's some seaglide fragments there i think, but there might be vehicle bay fragments in that area

[wild mirage]

You'll see brine soon enough

[harsh bear]

idk, i didn't really get scared at 100m, unless there was actually something like reapers

[cold palm]

now i have the spawns memorized and i go over there and play with them 💔

[torpid summit]

i found these eggs but i dunno what they are

[acoustic osprey]

They can be, pod 3 is in the kelp forest and vehicle bay fragments can spawn there

[jaunty cosmos]

R the vehicle bay fragments around all kelp Forest or just the one between grassy and safe

[acoustic osprey]

Should be in all of them

[wild mirage]

I killed one the other day 💔

[cold palm]

pretty sure it's all 3

[torpid summit]

how do i add photos

[jaunty cosmos]

Noooo

[cold palm]

on one of my saves i cleared the aurora and the dunes, and killed all the ghosts then i fell out of the two week subnautica phase

[jaunty cosmos]

How to actually insert the battery in the seaglide

[torpid summit]

when it empty press r

[cold palm]

press r, then use a and d to select a battery, then click to swap

[jaunty cosmos]

Ohhh

And do you have to build the battery recharge station thing

[cold palm]

if you wanna recharge batteries then yeah, but until then you're stuck crafting new ones

[harsh bear]

extremely useful but not required

[jaunty cosmos]

I'm kinda stuck at safe shallows and grassy

I'm too scared help

[torpid summit]

how do i add photos

[harsh bear]

you'll just have to push through it

[jaunty cosmos]

Are the ghost leviathans at grand reef only at deep parts?

[torpid summit]

no the void and the near the lava zone

[astral dome]

imagine playing subnautica and you're in the craters edge biome and then the bigfin squid (magnapinna) randomly pops up in the biome

[harsh bear]

no, the ghosties are relatively shallow

[cold palm]

they're decently far into the reef, but not deep below, i never encountered them outside of times when i was looking for them, cuz they're in areas that you don't really need to enter

[harsh bear]

they're near the edges

[cold palm]

yeah

[jaunty cosmos]

Oh hell nah

Do i need to go to the aurora

[torpid summit]

yes

[harsh bear]

i've seen one near the border of crag field

[cold palm]

yes, two essential blueprints are there

[jaunty cosmos]

Noooooooooo

[torpid summit]

what blueprints?

[cold palm]

the rocket and the robot

[scenic oriole]

(Technically one essential, one very useful)

[jaunty cosmos]

I was literally scared going to the aurora on creative

[torpid summit]

the prawn?

[harsh bear]

yes

[jaunty cosmos]

I can't even find 2 more vehicle bay fragments

Which places do I need to go

[harsh bear]

explore

[scenic oriole]

In addition to kelp forest, you can also find them in grassy plateaus wrecks

[jaunty cosmos]

Ohh that's useful

But I've only found one wreck near life pod 17

[scenic oriole]

Keep exploring

[jaunty cosmos]

I'm planning to go to lifepod 3 the next day

I hate nighttime

Do reapers attack unattended seamoths?

[cold palm]

they love unattended seamoths

it's their favorite food

you look away for a second and it gets swept up by a reaper

[astral dome]

reached like 442 meters

wait a MINUTE-

[jaunty cosmos]

Where should I park it?

[cold palm]

inside the aurora's hull

[jaunty cosmos]

Idk where that is

[astral dome]

so i accidentally stumbled upon the crash zone

[cold palm]

you're in like the safest area

[astral dome]

hopefully no reapers cause the atmosphere of the fog turned beige

[cold palm]

yeah, that section of the crash zone is mostly safe

[jaunty cosmos]

I hate beige environment

[cold palm]

the reapers are all at the boosters or in the very front, there's none in that middle area

[jaunty cosmos]

I found all vehicle bay fragments yayayhahay

Lifepod 3 is a lifesaver

[scenic oriole]

Except on the starboard side...port side is safe

[astral dome]

should i go encounter the reaper leviathan out of its region and dip

[scenic oriole]

There is also a wreck nearby which can have for example stasis rifle fragments

[jaunty cosmos]

There is??

I kinda forgot where lifepod 3 is now

[astral dome]

yeah no nvm the foggy is fogging

[cold palm]

if you have a seaglide you can just juke them out

[cold palm]

press f3 then press 6, it's so useful

[scenic oriole]

You can reactivate beacon signals on pda beacon manager tab

[jaunty cosmos]

Oh yay

Do I make compass or vehicle bay first

[astral dome]

what does it do

oh..

[cold palm]

visualizes depth, basically removes water and any other non 3d models

and removes colors

[astral dome]

i should go back to the crash zone-

[jaunty cosmos]

hell no

[astral dome]

helps alot thanks jade

[cold palm]

[astral dome]

now i no longer dont have to worry any leviathans appearing out of nowhere in the fog

[jaunty cosmos]

Seamoth is dang expensive

[cold palm]

wait till you find out the leviathans love clipping through the ground

[astral dome]

okay lets dip now

[jaunty cosmos]

Is there leviathans at lifepod 19

[cold palm]

nope

[jaunty cosmos]

Where is it located?

[cold palm]

uhh

somewhere

[jaunty cosmos]

Kelp forest?

[wild mirage]

Noo not the ghosts

[astral dome]

ay sunbeams arriving

[jaunty cosmos]

Did u disable the alien thing

[astral dome]

im coming

[jaunty cosmos]

Cuz if u didn't sunbeam gonna go down

[wild mirage]

bro just spoiled it

[wild mirage]

this your first time playing?

[astral dome]

yeah it is obv

[wild mirage]

....

Bro made life black and white

[astral dome]

that is beautiful

[astral dome]

i discovered the f3 + 6 trick by jade

[wild mirage]

Thats fine but it was a joke lol.
like how everyone says life's not all black and white

[astral dome]

uh oh im infected

[soft owl]

who has subnautica mods?

[ivory island]

guys what do i name him

[soft owl]

that looks like a penguin fr

[cold palm]

john warper II

[wild mirage]

What's with naming everything John bro

[ivory island]

🔥

[cold palm]

john

[wild mirage]

Yes, tis I

[ivory island]

thats john warper, the ceo of warping

[cold palm]

exactly

[wild mirage]

An alien company?

[ivory island]

no

[cold palm]

john warper

[ivory island]

the entire concept of warping as a whole

[cold palm]

he invented it

[wild mirage]

Oh okay

So we humans are about to steal that technology and strip the warpers for parts

[ivory island]

no

[wild mirage]

Too bad

[ivory island]

john warper shall bless us with warping tech

[astral dome]

what is that

[ivory island]

whats which thing

the big structure? the little guy swimming beside the cable?

[jaunty cosmos]

Why is the sunbeam already coming in 30mins

Is this when sunbeam explodes?

[astral dome]

swimming beside the cable

[ivory island]

ah

thats a boneshark

its basically just a stalker but it does a bit more damage, its a bit bigger and it doesnt have the obsession with scrap

not again 😭

[jaunty cosmos]

Is there any leviathans at sunbeam landing

[ivory island]

if you go far down enough underwater in the water at the landing then theres reapers but its that far down its classed as a different biome

[torpid summit]

i repeatedly slammed a bladderfish into the ground after i grabbed it

[ivory island]

and if you go behind to the other side of the mountain theres a reaper too

[jaunty cosmos]

Does sunbeam explode

[ivory island]

perchance

[jaunty cosmos]

So does it land

It's coming in 20 mind should I go?

[ivory island]

ye
go there for it

[jaunty cosmos]

Does it get hit by alien

[ivory island]

nah its totally gonna land

trust 🔥

[astral dome]

coming in 11

actually its coming in 10 minutes

[ivory island]

coming straight to YOUR house planet

[jaunty cosmos]

So no leviathans at landing?

[ivory island]

nope

if you dont go absurdly far down into the water then you are fine

[jaunty cosmos]

How about the journey there? Will there be any leviathans

[ivory island]

theres a reaper behind the island and a few at the front but only if you go like 500m down

[ivory island]

nope

[jaunty cosmos]

Oh good

[finite tide]

am i able to get my PRAWN suit out of a spot? no picture, but i was taking it through the jellyshroom caves to get magnetite and it got stuck under an overhanging peice of fungus. i can move it out, and the repulsion cannon doesnt move it at all. anytime i get in it it is in the falling state.

no

[jaunty cosmos]

Why is sunbeam landing so early

[ivory island]

wdym

[finite tide]

ooh, il try that, thanks

[astral dome]

i accidentally encountered a warper

[ivory island]

if you arent infected you should be fine

[astral dome]

scanned it anyway

[ivory island]

they only hunt things if they have water covid

[jaunty cosmos]

Where should I park my seamoth when I get to the sunbeam landing

[ivory island]

anywheres fine

just somewhere you can remember, near the shore maybe

just make sure not to get it stuck on the land

[astral dome]

sunbeam coming in 2 minutes

[jaunty cosmos]

Tell me what happens

[ivory island]

i hope you packed your belongings to leave!

[astral dome]

1 minut

[jaunty cosmos]

🙏😭

[astral dome]

35 seconds

[ivory island]

when the sunbeam arrives your mind will be blown

[jaunty cosmos]

Or the sunbeam will be blown

[astral dome]

i know whats gonig to happen

[torpid summit]

i did something evil to a stalker

[ivory island]

what did you do to that stalker

[torpid summit]

i put 15 of those sticky things on it

[ivory island]

😭

[torpid summit]

planning to add 15 more

[jaunty cosmos]

So what happened to the sunbeam

[astral dome]

NOO

[ivory island]

its just getting hit with the fun beam trust

[torpid summit]

im holding back a diabolical joke

[jaunty cosmos]

What if i just don't go to the sunbeam

[ivory island]

they are having so much fun up there

[ivory island]

same thing
just from a distance

[torpid summit]

i am holding back a joke so diabolical it might get me banned

[ivory island]

dm it to me 🔥

[torpid summit]

wut

[jaunty cosmos]

Oh. What do u do after sunbeam exploded

[ivory island]

the joke

[torpid summit]

how

[ivory island]

i mean theres always the option to cry aggressively

[ivory island]

wdym how
as in how do you dm??

[torpid summit]

yes

[jaunty cosmos]

💀💀

[ivory island]

here ill send you a message and you will see a notif on the left menu beside the envelope

[jaunty cosmos]

Did u encounter any leviathans on the journey to the sunbeam landing?

[torpid summit]

ok

[astral dome]

nein

[jaunty cosmos]

Oh good

[finite tide]

yeah 1 didnt work but the way the hitboxes of the fungus looks its like my suit has been boxed

in

ever since the patch i cant acess the text box

ive tried shift enter, shift wiggly line and the wiggly line itself

that only opens the feedback

[astral dome]

vro i cant find the mobile sea bay fragments i've looked everywhere

[finite tide]

there in kelp forsts

i have an image now if it helps, it looks fine but the hiboxes are messed up

how

the hitboxes look basically like this

[vast bridge]

Try this.

[finite tide]

and one in front of me that the grapple cant go past for some reason

[finite tide]

thanks

thank you so much i am indebted to you for the rest of my life

[torpid summit]

how do i find lead

[astral dome]

driving in my reefback right after a beeeer hey that buump is shaped like a deeer

time to try to die to a reaper leviathan because im in freedom mode

[torpid summit]

i abused a bladderfish and spadefish

[astral dome]

you coward come back here you leviathan

[torpid summit]

where do i find led

[jolly wren]

They are inside sandstone outcrops

[torpid summit]

ok thank you

[astral dome]

where do i find diamond

[wild mirage]

shale outcrops.
Mountain island and sea treader path are best for it (suggest mountain island as it is beginnner friendly)

[astral dome]

where do i find sea treader's path i wanna see the funny tripods

[wild mirage]

I actually don't know a sure fire way of finding it, I always stumble into it accidentally

[astral dome]

did i just die by a single step in the escape pod

like im not joking that actually happened

[torpid summit]

where do i find sandstone outcrops

[wild mirage]

grassy plataeus is a good place, and kelp forest.
there are a few in the safe shallows too but not as much as the other two I think

[torpid summit]

ok

[wild mirage]

Wdym morally okay, commands are a part of the game that can be accessed

Nah

Not that I'd recommend you do that, especially if it's your first play through, but you play however you want to play

[torpid summit]

i just got my seamoth but i already got it to 22 hp

[wild mirage]

Bro get a repair tool-

One boneshark is all it takes 😭

[torpid summit]

i dont have the blue prints

[wild mirage]

You need them asap

[torpid summit]

but i didnt get attacked by the bone shark

[wild mirage]

Im just saying 22 hp is dangerously low

[torpid summit]

i crashed so much

[unkempt vector]

Is nexus the best way to download mods

[torpid vale]

What's the fastest and safest way to get through ||the lost river||

Or like to get to and fro

I've set up a base down there but I need to run some errands to get my stuff down there like creepvine farms

[wild mirage]

depends on where your base is

[scenic oriole]

It's a single player game, so imo you decide what counts as cheating for you🤷‍♂️ (note that using commands disables achievements)

[torpid vale]

The ||tree area||

[wild mirage]

Mountains entrance I think would be fast

[torpid vale]

But not safe

[wild mirage]

gonna have ampeels and a juvie ghost along the way

[wild mirage]

Which you can get by quickly

[wild mirage]

You planning on going with a seamoth or a prawn?

[rare canyon]

hello all, i'm super stuck and have no idea where to go next and i'm not really sure where i am in progression

[torpid vale]

Cyclops with prawn

[torpid vale]

Go deeper and explore

[scenic oriole]

Usually the answer is 'explore' or 'read pda' (or both)

[torpid vale]

that's what I dihd

[wild mirage]

then the mountains one is good, the ghost will be your only real problem and silent running and slow speed will help you get past it

[rare canyon]

i did read the pda and explore, but i don't think i can do much without the cyclops

[torpid vale]

Ok

[torpid vale]

Then try to find the fragments for it

[zinc latch]

ay chez you got a new pfp?

[torpid vale]

You can find engine frags on the underwater floating islands and the others in the mushroom forests

[rare canyon]

i have the engine

[torpid vale]

Explore the shroom forests

[wild mirage]

you can try look along the left edge of the aurora too (yes its safe)

[rare canyon]

i have explored that area, i'm just kind of iffy about this torpedo system

[wild mirage]

On the seamoth?

[rare canyon]

yeah

i don't feel safe at all using it, it kind of just phases through leviathans

[wild mirage]

Ye Im not a huge fan of it

my seamoth upgrades are the perimeter defense, sonar, depth and storage

which i think is what everyone generally uses

[torpid vale]

Honestly self defence is overrated

Just run, hide, and sneak like a coward

[wild mirage]

Nah

I like abusing it on reapers to the point they just swim in a straight line

and hopefully into the void

[rancid hornet]

Juveniles of them are rly weird on switch (at least in my experience) as whenever I tried to kill them they just phased through the walls of the LR and now they won't come back in 💀

Same for one of the adult ones in the grand reef

[wild mirage]

Lmao yeah they're bugged in some weird way. In my case they attack my cyclops but they dont attack, they just push it into the ground or on its side, and the cyclops doesnt even do the whole creature attack warning thing. They just push the tail end of my cyclops and I just pass on by lmao

[rancid hornet]

I hate it when they just push your sub

It's really bad in the ghost tree section (Northen blood kelp entrance) too

[wild mirage]

It's annoying as hell

[rancid hornet]

Hence why I killed the juvenile there

[wild mirage]

Ive never used the entrance there, but it's suppposedly "bigger" so I assume it shouldnt be much of an issue

[rancid hornet]

The cavern itself is huge

[wild mirage]

Im referring to the mountain's entrance here btw

[rancid hornet]

But the trees render that pointless

[wild mirage]

they're still my favorite creature in game

[wild mirage]

Ahh I see

[rancid hornet]

They're probs 2nd for me

[wild mirage]

Whats first

[rancid hornet]

Jellyrays are the clear 1st place

[wild mirage]

Okay thats fair

the noises they make are calming too

[rancid hornet]

3rd is the crabsnake

[wild mirage]

2nd is definitely crabsnake for me

[rancid hornet]

I js build in the mushroom forest practically every time now

I change up my base designs ofc

[wild mirage]

Oh man, Never tried it but I assume its not as "open" as the grassy plataeu?

[rancid hornet]

Though this time around, I wanna take advantage of the large rooms a bit more

[rancid hornet]

There is actually one good spot

There's a clearing that kinda separates 2 sections of the forest close to the aurora

I built there

There was a lot of verticality tho

[wild mirage]

On my current run It's in the grassy plataeu close to the aurora, I used a moonpool, 2 mp rooms stacked and a large room plus scanner room

[rancid hornet]

But the base was still all good horizontally

[wild mirage]

The one nearby the huge tree with its roots sticking out the ground?

[rancid hornet]

Mine

Though it has since changed

There's an observatory attached to the multipurpose room

[zinc latch]

sick base

[rancid hornet]

And there is another multipurpose room connected to the moonpool on the left

[wild mirage]

Don't have a pic of my base but I have this

[rancid hornet]

That's pretty nice

I'd put a plant pot or 2 in there

[wild mirage]

I did put one, yes

[rancid hornet]

Adds some much needed colour in subnauticas base building

[rancid hornet]

Ok nice

I think when I next build a subnautica base

[wild mirage]

I find that my game lags more and more as I expand the base, which is why i dont go for really big bases

[rancid hornet]

It's either gonna be in the northern blood kelp zone OR the mushroom forest closer to the dunes

[rancid hornet]

Yeah this has been an issue for my switch

The base I showed is probably as big as it'll get

[rancid hornet]

*likely the mushroom forest closer to the dunes since the PCF gate is there too

[wild mirage]

I havent reported it yet but maybe I should, it runs fine up until that point where I start building, and may lord have mercy if I build in more than 2 different biomes

[rancid hornet]

I did this and god have mercy on my switch

[errant summit]

Hi! Is anyone Hungarian from here?

[rancid hornet]

Nope

[wild mirage]

Im probably gonna build on the mountain island in my next run

been wanting to have a land base as my primary for a while and its easily accessible, close to biomes like the underwater island and the QEP

[rancid hornet]

I considered that but I wouldn't wanna be harassed by warpers before I beat the game

[wild mirage]

Ah yeah warpers are an issue

[rancid hornet]

I wanted to build in the bulb zone

[wild mirage]

I would need to build into the water for the moon pool

[rancid hornet]

But there is one glaring issue

[wild mirage]

you wouldnt even need food and water there

[rancid hornet]

Yep

[wild mirage]

what's tht?

[rancid hornet]

Ampeels

So. Many. Ampeels

There were like 9 of them on my cyclops once

[wild mirage]

True, true-

"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming" is the general rule I use around them

[rancid hornet]

I use that too

But since there are so many you're likely to js end up swimming in the direction of another

The biome is REALLY good for titanium tho

[wild mirage]

Yeah true

[rancid hornet]

Although...

[wild mirage]

I havent explored much of the bulb zone I pass by it to go to my LR entrance

[wild mirage]

Thanks for letting me know

[rancid hornet]

The mushroom forest has all the copper I'd need, it's close to a safe shallows so table coral and other stuff won't be an issue. The blood kelp is nearby so blood oils and deep shrooms are easy

The sparse reef is close so that's a lot of ruby

Titanium wise, there's a kelp forest really close by

For silver I can js go to the LLs and ILZ via the gate

[wild mirage]

You want a lot of ruby? go to the dunes

[rancid hornet]

True

[wild mirage]

Trust me on this, the reapers there are overhyped

[rancid hornet]

I could probably kill all the reapers in the dunes

[wild mirage]

Legitimately they are spaced so far apart and you can dodge them for the most part when they attack

and a TONN of rubies near those thermal vents

and by a tone I mean more than enough for a locker full

[rancid hornet]

I'm probably js gonna go to the sparse reef either way and js get a tonne of them on my first trip

Since for some reason I always find at least one time capsule there

I found 3 once

[wild mirage]

I wouldnt even bother, it's literally the sparse reef 2.0 it's so empty there

[rancid hornet]

Icl the sparse reef is underrated

Probably my 2nd favourite biome

[wild mirage]

Probability of time capsule spawns

[rancid hornet]

And no it's not cus of the time capsules - it's js a really good biome for reaources

[rancid hornet]

Oh wow

[wild mirage]

ofc they got the other side of the aurora having the most 😭

[rancid hornet]

I've yet to visit the mesas

[wild mirage]

I needa invest my exploration there too tbh, I always overlook it

[wild mirage]

What be that

[rancid hornet]

The crash zone mesas

Ill grab an image

[wild mirage]

its a seperate biome?

[rancid hornet]

It's a mini biome

[wild mirage]

What in the hell

[rancid hornet]

There are many plateaus like this

[wild mirage]

Wow

[rancid hornet]

Yes, foliage in the crash zone

[wild mirage]

Any significance or is it just there

[rancid hornet]

Who ever woulda thought

[rancid hornet]

Not rly, it's just a nice place

Save for the reaper

[wild mirage]

Assuming from the green gras type thing possibly a part of a once existing kelp forest

[wild mirage]

Ahh I see

[rancid hornet]

Probably

I wonder what the crash zone as a whole was like before the crash

[wild mirage]

In my head I think the crash zone was part safe shallow, part kelp forest and part grassy plataeu

[rancid hornet]

Quite a lot of the bulb zone was probably wrecked

[wild mirage]

this too ngl

[rancid hornet]

I can see it looping around the back of the aurora

[wild mirage]

It would make sense

[rancid hornet]

And then going into a grassy plateaus

[wild mirage]

My only question is how and why there are so many reapers there

[wild mirage]

Other than yknow, just the devs wanting to put them there

[rancid hornet]

Reapers are likely attracted to really loud sounds

Think about it, there is one common factor in all of those biomes

A really damn loud noise was made at least once

In the crash zone, it was the aurora (twice)

Once with the initial crash and again with the kaboom

In the mountains, it's the QEP

In the dunes, it's the meteor

[wild mirage]

Ahhhh

It all makes sense

[rancid hornet]

And likely the wrecks too

[wild mirage]

Also considering their navigation is based on echolocation

[rancid hornet]

Yep

[wild mirage]

Ngl that's gotta be the most believable theory

Which I've heard so far

[rancid hornet]

Ty

[wild mirage]

No worries

[rancid hornet]

Ghosties are where they are purely cus of open waters

[wild mirage]

Yeah cuz they keep growing so they'd need more space

[rancid hornet]

Except for the juvs which stay in enclosed environments

Probably so food is in closer proximity

[rancid hornet]

Do they just never stop 😭

[wild mirage]

I also think the pda mentions they are cannibalistic before they mature?

[rancid hornet]

Imagine a ghost leviathan the size of a || sea emperor ||

[wild mirage]

Canonically, no

[rancid hornet]

Oh ye they do

Js realised I should've censored that

[wild mirage]

Meaning in theory we could have a ghost leviathan that's ancient and grew to be larger than the ||sea emperor||

[rancid hornet]

But for sustainability

It won't happen

[wild mirage]

Unless they die off of aging

[rancid hornet]

They probably live a long time

[wild mirage]

I mean they feed on microorganisms after maturing right?

[rancid hornet]

Yep

[wild mirage]

Yeah I guess it'd get to a point where it won't be enough

[rancid hornet]

Must be a lot of them in the void, grand reef and blood kelp

Maybe that's why the floating island is still up?

Assuming floaters feed on microorganisms

[wild mirage]

😭 was thinking the same thing

[rancid hornet]

They'd have plenty of food to keep going

Anyway

[wild mirage]

Or maybe they would get to a point where they are too big to move

[rancid hornet]

If there is one mod I wanna see developed for subnautica, it's repairing the aurora (not js the core)

[wild mirage]

Loll and getting to fly it?

[rancid hornet]

Yeah 😭

Or at least repairing the comms

And then you get offered a promotion to the lead researcher on the planet or smn idk

And you're tasked with building research habitats and more in each biome

[wild mirage]

😭 what ryley was hoping would happen
What actually happened: 1 trillion dollar debt

[rancid hornet]

For instance, there would be a research facility in the dunes and also a living area

(2 separate habitats)

[wild mirage]

I see I see

[rancid hornet]

It'd make more use of the radio

And well that'd be nice

Honestly an aurora expansion mod would be great too

We explore such a small portion of the ship there is no way that was everything

[wild mirage]

Its an interesting concept for sure

[rancid hornet]

They're so good 😭

The initial cost is insane but the payoff is incredible

[wild mirage]

Anywae I gotta go now, nice talking with you Fremora, 🫡

[rancid hornet]

Still need like 4 of them to charge 2 ion power cells without losing most your power 😭

[rancid hornet]

Cya bro

[wild mirage]

Bye bye

[rancid hornet]

By lost do you mean lost as in its missing or lost as in it went kaboom

Its really easy to get one anyway, I got my current seamoth in my current save in like 30 mins

The first time it took 2 hours

Second it took 1 hour

I always get a moth since it's helpful for my routine visit to the sparse reef

I always go there in every file

It's by far the most slept on biome in all of subnautica

Don't see why not

Get a stasis rifle and a thermoblade

Takes 200 hits for an adult

Not sure about juvs

It sounds like a lot but it's rlt easy

[astral dome]

for yall deltarune fans
what would happen if you created a dark fountain in planet 4546b

[wild mirage]

All you need is 31 gas pods and a stasis rifle

Its that easy

I did it yesterday wdym

😭

Damn guess that reaper didn't die

False alarm guys mb

[astral dome]

upside

[rancid hornet]

I did this

I placed them too far away from the ghosties head 😭

I didn't wanna get chomped

Dayum the game looks good there

Graphics

So much nicer compared to the switch

We don't even have bioluminescence bro

The eyes on the ghost leviathan don't glow for instance

[primal jolt]

Damn thats terrible 😭

[rancid hornet]

It really is

There are some exceptions I think tho

Thankfully, jellyrays glow

If they didn't I woulda been so annoyed

Basically, graphics had to be sacrificed for 20fps on the switch

[somber dawn]

hi, i Want to try Subnautica in VR, but my controllers are invisible, i have followed this video step by step but I didn't fix anything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukqsoW0s5as&ab_channel=NotAGameAddict 😭

[astral dome]

guys which direction compass should i go to get to blood kelp forest

i wanna see the ghost leviathan

[rancid hornet]

North east

I think?

Nevermind, north west

[astral dome]

aight gotchu

[errant lantern]

If you build a thermal plant, you should get a radio signal that will guide you thataway

[rancid hornet]

What?

Wait oh

Do you get that radio message upon building a thermal plant-

Is that how it works

[errant lantern]

Soon after, yes

[rancid hornet]

Huh, didn't know that

[errant lantern]

Radio signals can be triggered by several different things, that one is upon building the TP

[rancid hornet]

Ok I didn't know that too

I'll try it in my next subnautica save file

Which is gonna be a while from now seeing as I'm getting the lenovo legion go S later this year

[astral dome]

ooo funny mushroom

[errant lantern]

IDK what that is but it sounds fancy

[rancid hornet]

The Nintendo switch ++++

Literally that but better in basically every single conceivable metric

Except joycons cus u can't detach the sides

[errant lantern]

I think I'll stick with the one I have

[rancid hornet]

Don't blame u

[astral dome]

oh man not this again

[rancid hornet]

The exclusives make it worth it ig

[rancid hornet]

Brotha what-

[astral dome]

all i found was bulb biome

whats it doing near the kelp forest

[errant lantern]

They don't seem to have eyes, and can get lost sometimes

[astral dome]

Well welcome home reefback

how did i not realize i have 2 progress of mobile sea bay now i have 1 more

well thats accidental luck for me

yessir obtained

now to get back to the pod and change my seaglide's battery

and seamoth will come home soon

[vast bridge]

Try with the March 2023 build in the beta branches.

[astral dome]

yeah ik about that vehicle

[somber dawn]

i will try

[vast bridge]

A few days ago the game was updated so in the video they don't use a beta branch but now you probably should until the mod is updated.

[astral dome]

yay i got mobile vehicle bay!!

just need 1 more glass and i'll get the seamoth

lesgooo!!!

oh boy...

nvm its not worth it

my seamoth getting crushed

and i dont know where exactly it is

[smoky pond]

hello guys can I ask exactly what can I do to stop this weird graphical glitch happening if you look at the middle of the next room one part is smooth while the other is more pixelated when I am further away. Any way to fix this?

Not that its a big deal but it really does seem weird

[somber dawn]

still doesnt work 🙁

[zinc blade]

my game keeps crashing my pc what do i do?

[astral dome]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdWlfX1jmnE this video either dragged me to crash zone and crag's field

[scenic oriole]

Funny because repulsion cannon doesn't drag, it only pushes away😅

[astral dome]

like literally it led me to the crash zone on 1st try, then on the 2nd try its crags field

[scenic oriole]

Crash zone is technically right because you can get repulsion cannon blueprint in Aurora lab

[rancid hornet]

Just go to the underwater islands if u can't find the aurora one

U need a propulsion cannon tho in order to lift a box or a door off of a ladder or smn

[scenic oriole]

Lifepod 12 also has the databox

[rancid hornet]

True

[scenic oriole]

(Or you don't need to worry about it at all since propulsion cannon is more useful)

[primal jolt]

Just park it above the crush depth

[wispy siren]

Who wanna play w me?

[smoky pond]

up to you really

you are free to build wherever as long as you enjoy the view

most people build near the pod at first because its the most familiar spot you get

I build nearby out of necessity because of my deathrun mod

I spawn in random spots + radiation going to 200 metres

yeah

I am real there is so much cool customisation

Random lifepod spawns plus full choice on how the most important parts of the game go

I would recommend it just for the extra stuff to keep things more interesting

you are not forced to go for the hardest options

[scenic oriole]

Did the screen go greenish before you died? If yes, that would be drooping stinger

[smoky pond]

also it got updated for the new version so

dont touch it 😄

or force your way with medkits I guess

but its a stationary thing

[scenic oriole]

There are kind of jellyfish looking plants hanging on the base, try to pass them quickly and as far as possible. The poison damage builds up fast but heals quite quickly once you're away from the 'poison range'

[smoky pond]

does it heal? I thought you needed a medkit

and that sir is why you always scan before touching

[scenic oriole]

Poison damage heals within some seconds

[smoky pond]

or doing anything with whatever you see

[smoky pond]

interesting to know

[scenic oriole]

Same applies to gasopod poison

[smoky pond]

ah yeah yeah I understand you I play with poisoned air so I really am extra screwed. Maybe get a spare oxygen tank to have more time on your hands?

what kills you is rushed actions

[scenic oriole]

Or use air pumps: they have filter to clean the air breathable

[smoky pond]

I personally always carry spare oxygen tank due to having nitrogen build up and yeah no free oxygen from the surface

[smoky pond]

yeah agreed that is a good alternative too

Yeah XD

[scenic oriole]

Air pumps and pipes also help with nitrogen as you can get the air supply deeper underwater

[smoky pond]

welcome to the world of logic 😄

[smoky pond]

yup I know that thankfully even in base game they are very nice

[scenic oriole]

Just have to remember to change tanks also when able to refill: tanks in inventory don't replenish air, only the equipped one does

[smoky pond]

kinda sucks since it makes no sense to not be able to caarry more air

something cool the deathrun mod adds is a photosynthesis tanks that generate oxygen using sunlight. Obviously it just slows down the oxygen deterioration so you get extra time but its still nice

I gotta make a few when I think about it

I understand I usually preffer vanilla content too but some mods just add some really niche and cool stuff

I just can't pass on those they fit well into the game is all

you are welcome do say if you need any extra info with no spoilers

There is like a few other mods I use that are just some cool extras for the base

Yup

still some mods are waiting an update for the new version though

I hope they all get fully updated soon enough

almost all of mine are now up to date

good luck survivor

[scenic oriole]

Make two: that one also refills slowly in inventory...helped me explore the islands

[smoky pond]

yeah I did not mention that part

eh good thing it is explained in the description of the thing

[scenic oriole]

#memes-and-media for those...

[gleaming crag]

this dude traveled a whole biome just to steal my camera drone

stalkers are morons i swear

[scenic oriole]

Not morons, just determined to get shiny things

[rancid hornet]

how do they even see said shiny things 😭

from biomes away

they'd have to have an innate sense for where they are

[vernal oracle]

How do i connect the thermal thingy to my base? Isnt there some kind of blue wire? Cant find it

[rancid hornet]

you can find the fragments for it on the mushroom forest floor

[vernal oracle]

Thank you. Never been there for longer than a minute so that makes sense

[uneven badge]

hii can somone tell me what the mob in this area?

[scenic oriole]

Would be easier if you didn't crop away depth...but my guess is grassy plateaus caves or maybe jellyshroom caves

[uneven badge]

this is an area below the biome with red grass

[limber whale]

jellyshroom cave

[wispy siren]

Who wanna play w me im new

I don’t know what I’m doing

[limber whale]

game doesnt have multiplayer

[wispy siren]

Damn

[limber whale]

we COULD vc and have screenshares going

id have to finish my pizza rolls though

[wispy siren]

Hah🤣

[limber whale]

you think im joking?

[wispy siren]

Wanna privet chat?

[limber whale]

ok

[scenic oriole]

There are also other caves in grassy plateaus; I'm not entirely sure from the screenshot if it's jellyshroom cave entrance or orher grassy plateaus cave🤷‍♂️

[tulip dock]

if i fly off on a rocket will i be able to continue game?

[scenic oriole]

You can continue playing from the spot where you last saved (I suggest to save ||before building neptune cockpit, because building that changes cuddlefish interactions permanently||)

[tulip dock]

oh

also, i want to build scanning room in medusa reef, i guess solar panels wont work here, do i put like bio reactor or something

but im kinda lazy to catch fish for it

[whole yacht]

you can setup a grav trap and grab fish from it or set up a farm and use plants as bio fuel

[tulip dock]

oh alr

[solar geode]

were to play sabnautica

[calm garden]

what happened to the vc on this server?

[viscid stratus]

Chat I killed a ||reaper leviathan ||

[glass moth]

m trying to play nitrox with a friend

how can i fix this or what does this mean?

[calm dust]

xbox, ps, pc, (Microsoft store, steam etc)

[calm dust]

idk

[wild mirage]

I got stuck in the death loop with a reaper cuz I was too close

[wild mirage]

The second time j killed it successfully

You need to grab a ruby i think

Or a gel sack

Good luck soldier

[old kindle]

https://discord.com/channels/85342800492634112/387608544410861569

[torpid vale]

My lost river base is going swimmingly

[wild mirage]

By that I mean completely unswimmingly

[calm garden]

didn't this server use to have voice chat?

[wild mirage]

Yep removed cuz its harder to moderate and people were using it to attack eachother during the krafton drama

[calm garden]

ah... I see

shame cuz I had some funny conversations in it

[digital drift]

guh i just found a fish that jumped thrue the moonpool in my base

free food

[snow kettle]

just finished the game

might be crying a little bit

[wild mirage]

"Now you go among the stars, and I go among the sand, we are different but we go...together"

[snow kettle]

stoppppppppp

[wild mirage]

🥹

[snow kettle]

also i have a ||massive debt im glad i packed those ion cubes and diamonds in the neptune||

[wild mirage]

Doesnt that add to your debt

[snow kettle]

nah im bringing it back to give it to the corp

to reimburse

[wild mirage]

Yeah, the materials on that planet are owned by Alterra-

thats like paying someone back with their own money

[snow kettle]

lmaooo fair

id like to see them go get some more tho

[wild mirage]

Dunno if that includes ion cubes as they most likely didnt know those existed atp

[ornate elk]

but they dont know there are such materials on it

so they can repay you by removing your debt

[snow kettle]

ill give them the PDA thats worth millions

then ill sue them

[wild mirage]

They most likely did

[rancid hornet]

They wouldn't have known probs

They probably won't even have value for a while

[wild mirage]

Yeah

[rancid hornet]

Fools gold as they say

[wild mirage]

but diamonds they prolly did, considering the pda gives us the message of 3 million debt after we pick up the first diamond

[rancid hornet]

As soon as I heard that

I would've js lived on the planet

[wild mirage]

😂 Life or generational debt

[rancid hornet]

I'd rather live free of debt

They can't send a ship to me anyway

[snow kettle]

was getting a bit lonely

[rancid hornet]

I'll js keep the qep up, the occasional fireworks show

[wild mirage]

They would have sent someone to find you

[wild mirage]

or atleast explore and recover what they could from the crash

[rancid hornet]

Qep:

[rancid hornet]

Cuddlefish

Nuff said

[snow kettle]

isnt there a list of all the time capsules ever created btw ?

[wild mirage]

True, true

[rancid hornet]

That list would be mega long

[wild mirage]

The fuel?

[rancid hornet]

It'd genuinely take hours to properly acknowledge each one

[snow kettle]

WOAW

[rancid hornet]

Maybe even days

I'm choosing to ignore that previous statement

[wild mirage]

I have my reasons to hate them

[snow kettle]

whyyyyyyyy

[torpid vale]

So chat if I wanted infinite Stalker teeth in my lost river base, can I put stalker eggs and scrap metal in an alien containment?

[wild mirage]

They always swim away from me when i release them

[wild mirage]

You gotta release the stalkers outside

[snow kettle]

maybe they have their reasons

[wild mirage]

Not after I put them into the bioreactor

[snow kettle]

OMG

[wild mirage]

Why should they get special treatment from the other fishes, just cuz their smart?
Didnt the pda tell me I should be careful what organisms I bring aboard the habitat as they could be studying me.

[snow kettle]

hahah

[rancid hornet]

They won't be in the habitat for long

So it's fine

[wild mirage]

Yeah they'll be in Joules when Im done with them

[summer bluff]

e

hi PC species

[torpid vale]

My base so far

[wild mirage]

Awesome, I'd put more plants on the inside but other than that, love the view of the cove treee
