how are you meant to collect this without geting damaged?
Spoiler dood
You go above the brine, remove the grapple arm (or one of the arms, I usually remove the grapple) and pick it up with the claw.
claw?
Default prawn arm is a claw/hand thing.
oh

The logic is there
What I wonder is if they evolved from a single-eye organism in the center of their head to a dual-eye either side, or vice versa. Which is older, the peeper or the crashfish?
brine damage is nonlethal or temporary however you want to say it so if you really want to you could just go quick
but using the claw is generally easier
i wouldnt remove the grapple though if youre not going to mine anything right now
brine is one of those things where it wont kill you unless you let it kill you
best way to farm copper?
might sound weird but im always out of copper
How do I get uninfected?
||beat the game||
Scan for limestone. Also reefbacks have barnacles that drop copper and silver
||You don't need to rush, the infection itself cannot kill you in this game||
I need to strike the barnacles with the knife, correct?
normal knife?
You can do it without any tools too
Just like when you broke limestone the first time
Just watch out for tiger plants, which can sometimes grow on reefbacks - their pokes are mean
In addition to the prawn claw arm, you can use propulsion cannon or grav trap above the brine to collect stuff from it safely. Or as also already suggested, just dip to get it and use medikit to healš¤·āāļø
new players dont click on the spoiler box it is a major spoiler, ||where do all 5 the juvenile sea emperors go? i know they spread out across the map but ive never found one||
||Theyāre around. I almost ran into one with my cyclops yesterday. They grow big very quickly, too. ||
also our charachter is BUILT, do you realize how much strength you would need to have in order to open a seamoth, prawn hatch from the inside
best place to build my base?
I'm planning on building it here
eventually youll find a way to mine the big ore nodes, there are plenty of copper ones
||yeah building that robot thing will takes ages||
yeah thats a pretty solid spot
where did you build yours?
||Iāve found the best spot to view them from is the giant tall underwater pillar, one swims in circles around it pretty much all the time, itās an amazing observatory spot||
the only place i would say you shouldnt build a base is the ||void||
LMAO
This is where I build mine pretty much all the time, though next playthrough in gonna move over a bit to the east toward the blood kelp trench for lategame reasons
Itās a great spot and has access to every resource in the game
im still very early game and havent built a base yet but in other playthroughs i usually build in that same grassy plateus but a but more northwest almost next to the big wreck there
is blood kelp biome dangerous?
with a little effort you can put a base anywhere and youll be fine
what biome is that in?
wrong reply mb
that is its biome
That one isnāt so bad, both blood kelp zones have a ghost leviathan but the southwest one does not have the electric squid things and Iāve never once run into its ghost leviathan somehow
its biome is null
what biome is that in
yeah i accidently replied to your message and not doubleboxes
iirc underwater floating islands? Not sure though
there isnt one in the underwater islands the locations are dunes, crag field, mountains, BKZ, and grand reef pretty much right under the floating island
When you spend a few minutes there the PDA will say ||the biome should probably terrify you|| but you can kinda just ignore it because the only dangers are warpers (5 knife hits to get rid of them, 3 with thermoblade) and ampeels (just stay above them and they mostly ignore you)
ah mb
well I donāt remember where it was but it was a very distinct huge pillar
cant forget about crabsquids atleast in the zone i dont think they're in the trench
yeah I did mention that earlier
ill look around
bruh your pfp is the same color as the discord background and its badly throwing me off
lol
So @thorny obsidian in short the southwest blood kelp trench is actually relatively safe
wait you litteraly just dont have a pfp? I changed to light mode and it your pfp also went white
how many in game days do you have to wait till they show up with a noticable size?
yo guys
should my base be touching the sea floor or it should be over a platform?
im gonna build it in the grassy red biome
You can build without foundations if you want to.
I personally like to just build it on a foundation cause it also gives you a spot to place growbeds
true
and they're not that expensive
Why doesnt this work?
nooo my lithium
what
because no way bubbles are gonna be enough to supply your base with enough oxygen
You have to power your base with a power source to have oxygen in it.
im not sure if that applies for the pumps
If its more air than I breath in, I should be able to use it for that. And no way I am breathing that much air
ive never bothered with them since you get oxygen for free when its powered
the only time pipes come in handy is the on nitrogen mod
whats the nitrogen?
its not in subnautica unless you mod it but IRL divers will slowly acsend because if they ascend too quickly they you know what why am i tryna explain it heres the definition
"Decompression sickness (DCS) occurs when depressurized gas (usually nitrogen) exits the solution phase in tissues and obstructs the circulation by forming bubbles"
essentially if you go up too fast theres less pressure so you explode
Thereās a console command for it too
exploding???
For nitrogen
you dont explode but bubbles do form in your blood which can cause you to die
oh
does it work ive tried it but it never did anything?
I have never tried it either I just know it exists š¤·
you can explode if its drastic enough but i am exaggerating
oh yeah but you'd have to ascend quicker than humanly possible
or just go into space and take your helmet off
its moreso boiling your blood (because the boiling point of water also depends on pressure) which can cause a bunch of issues
like exploding if its drastic enough lol
yeah thats what i meant by your blood boils
if youre in a diving chamber and it breaks while decompressing you can (and will) explode
especially for deep sea maintenance workers
yeah sure, i forgot about that one
i mean saying someone exploded kinda implies it to be very graphic /lh
though ig the person who was... spread out wasnt so because they exploded, more like... they went through a playdough press at the speed of sound
(not good for you btw)
yeah.. the other guys in the back just died instantly so atleast they died in their sleep
well that conversation took a very dark turn very quickly
any tips for building a base for the first time?
I'm gonna build it in the grassy plateau
kinda think about what rooms your gonna want
for me its fabrication room, storage room, living quarters(not needed but it makes it feel more homey) an aquarium, a room for maybe a bioreactor or nuclear reactor, a greenhouse and ofc 1 or 2 moonpools
and an observatory if your building in a pretty spot
also just go get ALOT of resources more than you think youll need
id also stay away from large rooms in my opinion its harder to make them look good, and avoid stacking more than 2 multipurpose rooms so your base doesnt look like its just a tower
yeah you're going to use so much titanium for decorations
I like large rooms.
also alien containments are bigger when placed in a large room
i also like large rooms, they can be done well especially when you use the walls
do you have enough plants?
Of course not, don't you see my growbeds aren't full?
also they're usefull I just dont really like them because of how boxy they are
But I was working on it a while ago.
yeah your right not enough
but what do you use all of those multipurpose rooms for? i use usually only 6 multipurpose rooms maybe 7 if i want to make a lab
Nuclear reactors / oculi farm for the bioreactor.
I have a few spotlights.
Each one consumes 0.2 energy per second.
spotlights and floodlights take an acceptable amount of power
and the lights inside the base use no power
well actually I guess they use some power cause when it goes out the lights turn off but they dont actually drain the power
You're right. I like the light sticks but due to an update you can't place them on top of the foundations.
thats where building tweaks come in
I don't use mods.
well if you ever do :/
Holy cow, man, that base!
I just use quality of life mods like building tweaks, all in one fabricator, 1 item slot for like seaglides, tanks, masks everything
more hotbar slots
I like the idea of large rooms more than the implementation. Because the connection points for interior walls to the exterior wall are the same as where you would put windows, so any room you put in has to be double as wide as you want it. And I should be able to put in a multipurpose-sized ACU on each of the four center spots.
I have nothing against them, it's just that I was using the experimental builds.
But currently they're just the stable builds because of the Unity fix.
i forget sunautica is made with unity, its so good compared to other unity games (not saying other unity games are bad but subnautica was ahead of its time)
And I would love a mid-sized room, about half the size of a large room. Thatād fit in better in so many places.
I agree with this another reason I don't like them is cause of how big they are you can make a full base in 2 large rooms
And it just looks like an office building. /shrug
exactly its so boxy it doesnt look good
in ignus's build he paired it with other stuff and it made them look good but in a regular build they look mid
It was a very creative use of them, definitely. Nice job, Ignis.
Or it causes severe tissue damage and you spend a week or 2 in an iron lung
i thought we were done with this conversationš
having a base tower would be fun thoš
if thats what you want go for it
Some people use stacked ACUs as a transport system.
in my opinion I dont like em but dont let me stop you
ill never understand why they dont just use ladders
thoghts on building your base in Sparce Reef?
Aesthetics? But otherwise, yeah.
I end the lesson, not the bell 
I mean it's as advertised, sparse, so it doesn't look the greatest but it does have good access to quartz, lead, ruby's
i need them to add an option to catch the leviathans
cant gravtraps attach to leviathans, 1 obvoisly wont work but what you dropped like 500 on a reaper
how dangerous is the grand reef?
its got 2 ghost, but they're fairly easy to avoid the warper population is quite large though and if you go to deep there are crabsquid but other than that it aint a bad spot
the ghost leviathan instantly destroy the Lv. 1 Seamoth?
instantly no but they can take a good chunk out of its health
42 damage precisely š š¤
they typically patrol close to these 2 markers at a depth around -270
how long does it take for the ||Juvenile sea emporers to appear||
ive been waiting forever
You mean, out in the world? ||Once theyāve moved away from the PCF portal arch, they just spread out over the map, has been my experience. ||
yeah how long does it take i feel like ive been waiting ages
||They live for a thousand years, I donāt think theyāre in much of a hurry||. But seriously, I donāt know. I always encounter them randomly.
alright turns out i was just completely missing them
I donāt think I was talking about a pillar? Also, might want to spoiler tag that image.
wth i did
i just deleted it it wasnt even the right pilar anyway
No. All the storage is attached to a base or a vehicle.
no
there are dufflebags but for some reason you cant pick them up when they have stuff in them
Apparently, you used to be able to do so, but it was changed to avoid an infinite storage exploit.
yeah where you would place a full dufflebag inside a dufflebag and still have 5 slots
im at the floating islands and i cant find a "pillar" that is in range so that you could see the ||sea emperor ||
I did see it in the picture. Iām still confused about a pillar? What pillar? Did I miss something upthread?
wait the first image i sent was the pillar?
Think so?
I love when I spot a fragment and think āoh well, might as well scan it, itāll give me 2 titanium anywayā and then I scan it and it turns out I hadnāt finished collecting the fragments for that blueprint and itās all TADAAA!
I hate how loud the unlock sound is
thoughts on living in any of the 2 islands?
It is loud, but itās such a sense of achievement, even for stuff like the power connector. It amuses me.
Iāll often put a base ||under the floating island, twined around the stalactites||.
Itās not as convenient as some spots, but the scenery is worth it.
genuinly how do you not get losted in the fire areas?
i went there yesterday and i got lost for like 30 minutes
Me, too, the first few times I went there.
You can use the pathfinder tool, or just sortāve feel your way along with the cyclopsā sonar.
also how do i defend against warpers?
i tried to attack them with the drill arm and they just teleported away
Good enough, isnāt it? Theyāve gone.
they come back
To truly settle them down, you need to complete a major story point.
oh
Is the radio ^programmed^ to only go off when Iām kilometers away from my base?
Mine always seems to wait until Iām on the other side of the map.
oh god i cant make a pathfinder tool
bro i waited forever to get another radio message just for it to be a alien message
It does feel that way doesn't it? But no.
far, far more beacons than any sane human should ever place
It's however, programmed to space out messages in the queue.
it's related to time spent playing or entrance into a specific biome
most of the lifepod messages trigger after the player enters a specific biome
(or after a certain amount of in-game time has passed if the player has not yet entered said biome)
fr
Iāve played so many times I understand their language now.
Itās something about a ham sandwich.
just... just ask for the regular
Whats the regular?
Ask Becky, she knows.
A HAM AND CHEESE!
what in the 3 musketeers in this
okay, but if I say the regular and she's like whats the regular and I have to come all the way back up here
welcoming committee
so truqzspider can full caps but i cant? thank automodš
The thing about that message isā¦Alterraās just lost a capital ship, and the task of helping rescue the lone survivor is tasked toā¦the call center dude? This is why BZās āAlterra-as-evilā vibe never landed with me, because I just have an image of it in my head as being run by a bunch of clowns.
agreed
the original game lets you form your own opinions, which i like
its just another megacorp
i mean they did try to harness the ||khraa's|| power
I mean, they were ^studying^ it, which is, I think exactly what they ^should^ do. Just like we study polio and other diseases: to learn how to combat them.
agreed
By itself, I didnāt have a problem with that.
i am a biologist and can confirm that no one would be trying to make a superweapon like that, they would just be trying to understand it
right after I unpaused i was warped out of my seamoth and executed, safe to say i feel welcomed
and Robin's sister doesn't have evidence for what theyre doing
they just wanted to get to know you
up close and personal
REALLY up close
and REALLY personal
yo mailman i got kyanite
w's
im gonna try to leave the lr now
Right - which makes me think that although weāre used to sympathizing with the protagonist (and by extension their family) I think it was an intended interpretation that Sam was wrong. Or at least, jumping to conclusions.
im just hoping the ghost levi dosent see my cyclops
Guys can I not upgrade subnautica from PS4 to ps5 version for free anymore it says you can't buy this follow product because you already own the following products even tho I only have PS4 version
the cyclops has been running the entire time.
if you use the exit with the giant ribcage and hug the wall, the ghost doesn't spot you
idrk i never finished BZ
my clclops is down the waterfall so ima just hug the left wall
Guys can I not upgrade subnautica from PS4 to ps5 version for free anymore it says you can't buy this follow product because you already own the following products even tho I only have PS4 version
Help please
I sent a message 2 days ago no response and only 2 messages have been sent since
oh
Yea I js wanna try subnautica on 60 fps the game is so peak
idk, im xbox/pc so idk anything about PS's
Pc and Xbox are way better
bruh my seamoth is 1300m away
oop
im starting to feel less welcome by the second
but the welcoming committee tried so hard :(
Some of the creatures we encounter can be pacified with fish. Did you try offering them a peeper?
they did put alot of effort in
How long i can be in silent mode (fully ion cyclop)?
30-40 mins but thats only if your not moving
@subtle meadow if your silent running and ahead standard you got 15-20 mins
actually maybe 6-8 mins
my math if off somewhere give me a sec
why did a reaper chase me to the safe shallows š
They mad
Bro my pc deadahh just stopped like discord started lagging and now my moniter is showing nothing
just built the neptune launch platform
You get 85mins if you have silent and ahead standard you have 95mins if you also have a engine efficiency module
I didnāt think discord was ^that^ resource-intensive.
Okay thanks for info :3
I had a lot of stuff open
i really hope my save didnt get corrupted
where can i get drill and grapple arm fragments, i just need 1 of each?
I use grand reef wreck, the one thatās around 250m and not far from a kelp forest, and blood kelp trench wreck
thank you
How i play with psvr on pc ?? Help me first time i start the game i can , now i cant...
i found all the grapple arm fragments in the dunes
not the best spot but its where i found them
and maybe some drill arm fragments too
yeah i watchd a chemical apes video and he went to the dunes but i rememeber on a prevous playthrough i got them somewhere else
ive only ever gone to the dunes for the stillsuit and reinforced suit
i got reinforced suit rediculusly late
i refused to go east the entire game and i fount the pda box for reinforced suit at the bulb zone lol
yeah you can get the reinforced in other places but i think the only place you can get the stillsuit is in the dunes or mountains
whats the stillsuot?
its a suit that gives you water over time
heres the description "he Water Filtration Suit conserves and filters the player's bodily fluids, resulting in drinkable Reclaimed Water being added to the inventory, assuming there is space for it. Drinking Reclaimed Water restores 20 H2O points at a cost of -3 Food. The Water Filtration Suit produces Reclaimed Water at a fixed rate of two per day, with a small item popup appearing whenever it does so.
The Water Filtration Suit cannot support the player's water needs single-handedly, as the player loses water at a rate far higher than 40 per in-game day. It does prolong the player's survival in instances where they do not have easy access to water, and can be helpful on long journeys."
so it lowers the rate at which you get thirsty but it isnt a complete fix to water
pretty cool
bro a warper just camped at my seamoth
He just wants a ride across town.
bro i hate how aggresive the warpers are like leave me alone bro this one has been following me in a circle for like 2 minutes just tryna get me with the teleport but i keep dodging it
Stasis, knife. Heāll back off.
dont got the stasis yes
Ah. That does make it more difficult.
stasis wont work they disappear to fast. just keep moving around warpers.
Even without, though, if you hit them theyāll bolt.
yoo i got a cuddlefish
thats what i tried last time with the welcoming commitee and i got 1 of them 2 times with a thermoblade and he promptly beheaded me
Ouch. Maybe just run.
i cant find 1 last stasis fragment, i got 1 from the floater island
check the jelly shroom cave for a second but usually you get all two from floating island.
Theyāre hidden in some surprising places. I say āhiddenā as in, crates turned to the wall. Thereās one in one of the wrecks in the Shallows, even.
huh okay ill look around but rn i need to focus on getting the prawn arms
also kinda weird how we can just make water from straight bleach
I have a custom recipe that requires more materials to make bleach, but returns four bottles instead of two. In my head, a bottle of bleach is too strong for only two bottles of water but sufficiently diluted in four. (Probably not really, I imagine in real life a capful would be enough for a bottle or two of water.)
i think drinking bleach is not terrible for you regardless of the water to bleach ratio
i actually just died from cutting deep shroom
well thats my new most embarrasing death
Just today, I was at the surface getting air via airpump (atmosphere is poisoned, mod) when I noticed a reefback passing slowly by beneath me. āOh, hello,ā I thought, dove down, grabbed some copper from a barnacle, returned to the airpump, thinking how nice it was for the reefback to come by, like an ice cream truck except for metal - and then the tiger plant on its back came into range.
Before I realized it - dead.
i need to go back to the lava place to find more ailen buildings how many purple and orange tablets should i make and do i need them?
i think death by mushroom is more embarrasing those tiger plants are like machine guns
You only need one orange. Two purple, I think?
okay
No, three.
Depending on ||which facilities youāve already found. Itās three including the disease research facility||.
Do you all name and color your vehicles? Do you name/color them the same every time, or make them unique?
?
titanfall referance
Ah, Iāve not seen it. Heard of it, though.
Wait - Iām thinking of āAttack on Titanā. Whatās Titanfall?
an old abandoned EA game
or more speccificly Titanfall 2 is where BT is from
it doesnt get updates anymore but its still active
take your time
First try
I had to find a server that would let me send images and this was the first one
sending ts back to helldivers
nevermind i forgot that helldivers picture sending is wierd
alright its trailmakers problem now
Hello niche community
this is a scary fish game experts hub. what is your business here?
appleš
juice?
i named my cyclops the sub, the prawn suit soy sauce, and the seamoth shrimp
my cyclops has always the name yellow because it's yellow and yellow submarine won't fit. I always have the beatles song in my head when driving it.
I barely played that year maybe 30 hours but I have almost 500 hrs in game and i have beaten it in double digits.
I know the map and how to find everything.
I only do some practice that I don't forget things.
ok
maybe when winter comes im more into it again.
im gonna try to find the thermal plant, and the primary containment facility. theyre both in the lava zone right?
yes they are.
ok
i havent gone far into the lava zone cuz im scared of getting lost
but ima go farther this time
Take your time it's difficult for the first time.
i just made prawn suit depth module 2
what do u think is the best prawn suit hand layout? i have drill arm in right and grapple in left
I found out the fastest way to go there ist the seaglide. But you have to know your ways and when you're unlucky you can get instantly killed.
i do opposite
Thatās the meta š
whats the meta mean
i take my cyclops down the waterfall and leave it at the end of the waterfall then go in the prawn suit
I have this too because it's easier to grabble this way. When you want the fastest vehicle in game you need double grapple.
Do you enter from ||ghost forest||?
I usually park above the || tree cove ||.
whats ghost forest
i dont know all the names
i enter lost river through lifepod 2 entrance then go down the waterfall on the left wall
Me, too.
There are a lot of ghost trees it's the biome when you enter the || lost river from Northern Blood Kelp Zone Lifepod 2||
o alr
alr so the part im scared of the most is a ghost levi attacking my cyclops on my way down to the blood kelp biome and the ghost levi seeing my cyclops while manuvering it down the waterfall
After it there's a huge drop down poisened water falls to ||the junction and on the right side there's the tree cove with the huge ghost tree in the middle. behind it there's a way deeper. ||
correct
thats the way i go
YOO my cuddlefish hatched
is the cuddlefish gonna stay around the area i dropped him?
When you're carful you don't have to be afraid. First creatures are attrackted by noise from the engine. you have a radar on the right side of the bridge. use it. everytime a hostile creature appears in your radius there's a yellow arrow. then my way is to power off the engine and sit on a chair in the bridge and watch until it goes away. when you power off the engine your cyclops is invisible. and decoys are great when you really get attacked.
no initially it follows you everywhere you go. but you can command him to stay.
ok i commanded him to stay
and silent running does that but i can move?
silent rig drains you power like crazy.
that's why i don't recommend it.
yea
and when you leave your cyclops running silent rig it will drain it to zero. and you have a problem.
also i heard that a fully charged shot from a stasis rifle freezes something for 30 secs, how long does it take to fully change a shot from a stasis rifle?
power off that's the way and decoys. and it also helps only run on slow. that's less noise and saves a lot of power. I never charge my cyclops when I use it.
alright
I don't know 8 Seconds 10. You see if it's fully charged in your hud.
before i beat this game i wanna scan every levi and go to the void
and when you've beaten the game you come back and do a 100% run?
in this run after i like cure the illness and make the rocket i wanna go to the void and whatnot
100% means get every PDA and Data Download in the world, scan everything, and unlock every database entry.
after i complete this playthroughi think i might do an 100 percent run maybe with the prototype expansion mod
Subnautica is enough for me without mods. The only thing I'd wish for is lock to grid for building and hatch every leviathan.
A little pet reaper would be nice.
lol
the prototype expansion mod looks clean though
made it to the entrance
now the next step is to get down the watuh fall
guys please tell me im not crazy, I SWEARRR the lifepod used to gradually drift towards the back of the Aurora
You're crazy. But when you play it several times you'll learn your lifepod spawns every run in another place and is not locked on one spawnpoint.
There's an area in the shallows the pod can spawn.
are there any lifepod spawns that spawn u at the front of the aurora
ok
some spawns are disturbingly close to the thrusters at least it seems so.
yes that's one of my favorits too. i usually build a whole base down there for further exploration.
dang
and it's safe there.
Why is there a subnautica mobile chat when they are the same but just on a diff device I think
behind the tree there's a way and a drop down.
Btw is it normal to not die when my seamoth explodes
because different devices have different issues and possible ways to play.
ill just park it where the drop begins
cuz im still on depth module 1 i think
yes... depends a reinforced dive suit prevents instant death and a lot of damage.
get filtered water and one nutrient block is more than enough.
and you can bring plants to eat in your cyclops i always go with two plantpots of melons. enought water and nutrition.
i made it to this trench
yesterday i went right
is there more lava biome if i go left?
i have 4 bulbo plants on the cyclops
yes, i'd check this way. you can't miss it.
not really left more middle.
i got to the open section. so ima place a beacon here. is that a good idea?
how do i name the beacons?
place a beacon at the bottom of the canyon you came from.
y
if i place one at the opening it will show me where to go to get to the canyon
how do i name the beacons?
that's up to you.
but like can you change it from beacon 3?
yes.
how
deploy it first then when you hoover over it then an entering cursor comes up. the other option is to pick it up.
so if i see a sea dragon can i just stasis rifle it?
crap.
i forgot to bring the tablets
noanogahaganonoooo
bro
i just scanned a sea dragon!
š
dude my battery on the stasis rifle is gonna drain with the amouint of times im blasting this sea dragon
yes it does.
oh no im trapped
i found an entrance to a mountain thingy
the entrance had ailen style pillars on both sides but i dont see an ailen place inside
nevermind i found it
follow the path
yo i found the thermal plant
yes you did.
noo i need purple tablet
yes you do you said you forgot them I thought you went back
Fun fact if youāre not charging the stasis rifle at all itāll still freeze things for at least six seconds and takes almost zero power, though sea dragons are really hard to hit bc janky hitbox, so up to you whether this is worth it
thatās how I can keep a reaper stunlocked for literally hours off just a single regular battery
itās like 1 power unit per use
dang
ig thatās not hours but it is ten minutes
alr
and a ten minute stunlock feels like hours
so whats in the primary containment facility
ive watched caseohs playthrough but i forget most of it
i think its like sea emperor or smth
have you had a ||ghostly looking leviathan looking thing show up on your screen and talk to you for a minute?||
not a ghost leviathan
but like, in your base or something, ||when youāre chilling, it suddenly fills your vision?||
it should have happened by now
if youāre at ||sea dragons||
can you please spoiler tag the late game contents. it's a bit of curtesy for newer players.
mb
how do i spoiler tag
|| around text
.
put || before and after the text
||like this||
or typen and then mark the text there's an format option box appears in dc.
Yeah, the thing youāre talking about is correct, it is ||the sea emperor leviathan, she waits for you in primary containment||
im temped to swim from sunbeam island to my base
Yeah, the ||thermal plant portal does lead to that island||
should i do that?
it is intended to be used for quick travel, yes, ||particularly with prawn suits||
||seamoths and cyclopses cannot be used with portals||
for hopefully obvious reasons
i went through the portal without prawn suit and came back through and MY PRAWN SUIT IS HALFWAY NOCLIPED INTO THE FLOR
lmao
and not its not letting me get out of it
its saying spawnneaby failed
leave the world and reload it
lemme press unstuck button
How do I get to the place where the|| sea emperor||
unstuck works only for you not your vehicles.
wdym
go deeper
Itās really deep
isn't it dangerous?
The first biome that leads to it is ||900m below the surface||
ughh
it can be but you should give it a try.
ok ima save then reload
And the only two ways I know of accessing that biome are located ||at the bottom of blood kelp biomes, either one will get you there||
is this a good spot for your base?
Very good spot
Is the entrance near the || lava castle|| š
Thatās exactly where I put mine pretty much every time
yes that's a known bug.
Please tell me it's not
whats the lava castle
Yes, thereās another level below the lava castle
The spot that has the ||portal you just went through||
ohh
Shucks
You access it from ||one of two parts of the lava castle area that let you delve even deeper||
WHAT
:)
I'm screwed
wait theres another level below the lava castle?
bug??
whats below?
I thought you knewweww my bad
huh??
uhh the deepest ive gone is thermal plant. is there deeper?
What Hornet is looking for, you want spoiler or nah?
sure u can spoil
Do I have to go out of the castle to go deeper cuz I hate the ||sea dragon leviathan||
There are two things that are deeper: ||primary containment unit and the void||
stasis rifle
primary containment is what im looking for
||the void is not useful to you though||
Yeah I have it but uhhhh my aim sucks
Yes
so is primary containment also in the lava castle?
Shucks
That the prawn sinks into the floor and it gets stuck. You can check out a solution from Ignis in the pinned messages.
tips for getting aerogel?
No, itās ||further below it||
grand reef
You can farm ||gel sacs||
ohh
To get infinite of them
how is that related with my question
no it isn't there are two ways to go deeper.
How far down is primary containment
where?
iirc ||1300m||
oh maybe i misclicked
||gel sacs|| can be found with scanner room
Generally they are ||300m or deeper|| and I recommend looking in biomes with blue bioluminescent themes
so i need to go farther down outside of the lava castle?
yes
I dont have it yet...
for some reason I haven't recieved more radio signals
Oh, then youāre not really at the point where you need aerogel yet Iād think
Scanner room is pretty early game
UHH WHERE IS HE
there are two drops in the ||inactive lava zone|| which lead to the || active lava zone|| 1900 meters.
no, I need it lol
oh, I didn't know
gone most likely
Noooo not that far down š
WAHA
rip prawn š
WHYS HE GONE
where are the blueprints? I only have like 1 part
I found them southish
like the grassy field to the south, east of the southern blood kelp trench
because you left him there. it shouldn't happen anymore as far I know.
there are wrecks there with scanner room parts
a lot of them
scanner room is goated
so im gonna go to sunbeam island and swim to base, make a prawn suit, and swim back here. i can do that right?
yes.
1900?!??
rest in peace soy sauce. you fought well.
It is NOT 1900 meters down š only thing that goes that deep is the void
Itās like ||1400 or maybe 1500, prawn suit can reach it with mk2 depth module no problem||
this is the only part of him alivr LMAO
I can't really remember how far down but it's deep and the depth is written in your PDA in your Database there are all alien locations mentioned and their depth.
so everytime i walk into a portal should i bring my prawn suit or is that a rare bug?
ah
You canāt enter it Iām guessing can you?
Ignis has some pinned fixes you can try if youāre on PC
I donāt know if they work if itās that far below the floor though
lol
I think you have to reach it at least. There's only the tip of the antenna left visible.
Yeah I saw
can i replenish that ion cube node in the thermal plant?
Thatās why I said, might not work. In the videos Ignis shows entering the prawn
prawn drill arm that's the tool
But as I understand it happens when you use the portal system without taking your prawn through with you
You drill the ion cube node with the drill arm
that's exactly what happend.
So exactly which direction from the lava castle?
does that happen every time?
I donāt know if it happens every time, but it certainly can happen, and thatās the cause
is there any way to unluck a map?
depends where you are and which way you'd want to go. I recommend try to find the mountain canyon lifepod 12 helps it should be at 2 o clock. there's a drop. but there's another one too.
Unlock a map? There is no in game map
Im at the entrance to the cube in the lava castle
There are some maps you can use
We can link some if youād like, just be aware of potential spoilers
I mean to get into the area
then it depends where you leave the castle.
Can I DM you so I can show you where I am
Rq
It's difficult to see it on pics only. just look around you will find it sooner or later.
I'm at the green pillars at the lava castle if that makes it better
not really there are 2 entrances to the lava castle take the north one out and you'll find a drop near it
close is also the connection to the mountain canyon entrance.
Im in the containment place but forgot a blue tablet š
we all did it the first time.
well most did. i did.
I can hopefully make it back before my hunger runs out
do you have a thermal blade?
Yeah
then you can get cooked fish just knife them and eat.
Im going back so that I dont have to worry about food rn also going back to get my two blue tablets
where did Yall build your bases?
I always build a surface and an underground base. But mostly I stay in the shallows because I like to build above water too. My underground base is always in the || Tree Cove||
I liked the bulb zone because it's very beautiful at night.
But the safest and best spots are still shallows and grassy plateaus.
Or the mushroom forest.
Well I bought subnautica but I canāt run it that well. Im already at low graphics settings but my fps is very poor.
I tried some fps boost packs and those kinda helped. Is there anything else I can do?
Is there a bug where replicaters don't work? I've reinstalled via Steam. No joy.
Blood kelp
i built my base in the grassy platue
oh noo
someone
which direction is the sunbeam island from the lifepod 5 because uh
google is giving 2 exacty opposite results
When you say donāt workā¦? Are you trying to cook your bladderfish and the option doesnāt come up, or itās there and the fabricator just doesnāt cook it?
Northeast.
can i get there with the prawn suit?
I guess you ^can^, but I find it annoying to go long distances in the prawn. Sure, itāll get you there though.
Between the floating islands and the bulb zone.
If you have the seamoth I might suggest using that. I mean, you can swim there if need be. How did the prawn fail?
i couldnt see above me and i went like 800 meters too far
also its a long story but my prawn suit got bugged in the thermal plant so im trying to get my new prawn suit into the portal to get back into the thermal plant
Ah, gotcha.
wait so at the sunbeam island how far away is lifepod 5
Well, I usually go northeast through the grassy plateus and mushroom forest. The bulb zoneād be on your right, so if youāre in it, turn left/north and look for the land to start rising up.
i wanna use that as a referance as how far i should go, google said 1200
i just hit the bulb zone
That sounds about right. It depends on where the lifepod actually is. Itās not always in the same place.
If you hear a reaper, youāre in the right area. Where the land rises up, go on the left/north side. Itās safer.
I donāt think the ||sunbeam|| beacon is recorded in the pda.
Yeah, maybe. That seems too far. From that perspective, head to the right.
so west?
Yes.
i think i see the land fog that the game renders to stoop you from seeing the land
oh thank god i made it
Hope you brought a beacon with you.
i did
i brought 3
alr now im gonna come here with the prawn
do u have a map of the biomes?
ive made it
I donāt, sorry. Quick online search ought to turn one up though.
im goin through the portal
dude dude dude dude the sea dragon roar is going to give my nightmare's nightmare A nightmare
/nod Yeah, itāll do that.
genuinly what is my luck
first, my prawn gets stuck in the ground
next, a sea dragon takes a good ol chomp on it AND THROWS IT INTO THE WALL
for future reference, if it is daytime, you are on the surface, and you open your pda, all land fog will be highlighted bright white behind the pda glass
this makes it very easy to locate the islands
mountain island is near the aurora's bow and a bit to the port
floating is quite far behind and slightly port of the stern
the land fog can be seen from anywhere on the map as long as you have line of sight
I love this fih game
Nice fih
Oculus fih š„
Im gonna make another one
Chat I FINNALY beat my fears of subnautica
How does this work
W king/queen
Last night I went to the ||lost river|| right next to the ||inactive lava zone entrance|| at 900m since my cyclops didnāt have the mk2 depth module
I turn off the engine turn around only to realise I forgot my PRAWN suit in the moon pool at my base š
Collect materials and craft the mk2 depth upgrade (if you have modification station in cyclops)
I already have both the prawn and the cyclops maxed out
All thatās left is ||building the Neptune rocket||
is there any way to get a map in the game?
Thereās probably a mod but itās intended to not have a map
Itās almost like youāre stuck in an
UNKNOWN WORLD š¤Æš¤Æš¤Æ
.
Ty
pfft, havent seen that news thing change since 2.0...
thats a weird thing to see after being on the 2020 patch or so for years
guys
Derek
whats the difference between lightweight high capacity tank and ultra high capacity tank?
Lightweight makes you swim faster
is that so
Aināt worth it itās minimal
And it doesnāt change if you have a seaglide so
Save your materials
Ultra High Capacity also has a total of 225s, vs Lightweight High Capacity which is the same as the High Capacity, with a total of 135s.
guys
is it normal that I haven't recieved a single radio message in a long while?
Same
I'm confused about that too no radio no new location to go to after dagasi 500m and lifepod 2 500m
gng should I quit
Nawh
Yes. Eventually the radio stops guiding you. Youāre expected to explore and find things on your own now.
Like a baby crashfish, at last leaving the nest.
How do I fight off crabsquids
umm weird
i remember someone said its completly infested with warpers but i dont see a single warper
You got stasis rifle?
Naw
There's a couple swimming around, also spoil tag them and the image
if u dont have it then u shouldnt be in areas that have the crabsquid in the first place
Where do I get the stasis then
Did you find ||Degasi bases||
Not yet
Not a single one?
I'll be going there soon
Only ||the island one||
okay
||Stasis rifle fragments can spawn in some of the crates there||
Alright
idk that guys made it sound like theres 25 or more of them
||Maybe they were refering to another facility, but it still like 5 max there||
oh then its a prety safe place
I love flinging myself with the safe pod lol
You mean seamoth or?
the safe pod
#5
I mean
lifepod
my English suck don't mind it
||where was the entrance to the disease reasearch facility again?||
I took 34 hours on subnautica
Its In lost river dont turn right To the tree turn left To it
i know where it is i was wondering where the entrance to it was
do you need any purple tablets inside of it?
or to enter it?
guys ima just take teh cyclops to the disease reaseacrh facility so the warpers cant attack me
ha ha bro cant attack me he he he
oh no
?
Aren't these pics kinda spoilers?
oh yeah forgot
||um i downloaded the data from the disease reasearch facility and did a scan on myself and removed the gloves||
Oh we are supposed to talk about subnautica here
Hull and bridge can be found in Mushroom Forest
Where's that
I haven't figured out where's every biome I only know 2 island
And 1 blood kelp biome cuz it was closer to the pda location
There are 2 mushroom forests
(Gloves don't matter)
Which one is closer or safer
they do for the animatsion where you looks at your hands
One is actually not too far away from the island where you were looking
No they don't
There's reaper leviathan below me and warper
Btw look at my seamoth i was talking about
Which direction do i need to go
Well I'm low on water so I'll prolly head home first
I have played the animation with gloves on and the animation is still without gloves
yea they do i scanned myself first time and it just said the infectsion has spread and when i took the gloves of and did a scann then the animatsion did start
I think it's kinda south of the island, a little closer to the Aurora than to the island
.
South got it
There is a small delay between scan and the animation.
oh that would make sense
Can u gimme direction from the 0 point
Cuz i think I'll head home first
Running for my life without seamoth š
There is a tiny bit of mushroom forest south of the island, where a reaper chills, but way further away it's fine
Just don't get too close to the Aurora I guess
I heard there's 1 behind aurora too
Man all the things in this game is so scary
And i get scared especially when I'm in deep sea and i can't see anything but endless darkness at night i hate that the most
There are quite a few back there, but I'm talking about the front. Try looking for a mushroom place between the island and the front of the Aurora but don't try to get too close to either
Ahh got it the front where we go into the aurora right?
Ye
But don't get too close to it, is there one close to it too?
Damn could i have been attacked when i went to aurora? I didn't even see one that time tbh
There is one at the front but if you stick to the surface it should be fine
Sticking to the surface and hugging the walls helped me get in safely
Well i already explored aurora fully but i didn't see any reaper
I got prawn suit there
I'll go try to save and reload game to see if my seamoth comes down to water
you can absolutely do the aurora without even hearing the reaper since its behind it
Yeah i did it without seeing
the only time it becomes a problem is when it wanders into the breach and gets stuck
you can leave your seamoth there its fine
it wont bother the seamoth if you arent nearby
How do I turn off the scanner room using Steam Deck controls? I donāt see any buttons on the displays or anything
On pc you just use your regular click button on the x in there
How will I go home without it bro
Well i went home then i went to search for cyclops fragments and found alien tech
But forgot to save and it's all lost now
guys i have alien containments on the top 2 floors but when i drop my egg thne it sinks thru the floor and is on the ground beloow the base why is that happening?
anybody have any ideas why its happening?
Apparently it's a visual glitch and the eggs will hatch normally (and the hatched creatures appear inside the alien containment)
so it will still hatch in the containment even if it shows the eggs are shown on the floor?
That's what I've heard
Also should really spoiler tag the picture fwiw since itās in LR
im gonna try to go to the ||active lava zone|| again
yoo shadow u were here yesterday
Is there a way to play the nitrox multiplayer on linux?
whats linux
Idk but I really wanna try multiplayer subnautica ngl
same
Itās an open source operating system
Basically windows if it was free and anyone can modify it
i wanna do a 100% multiplayer playthrough with the prototype mod
ahh
Better not go down the Linux rabbit hole if you enjoy touching grass
i enjoy that very much so i guess ill stick with windows
yo kay have u been to the ||active lava zone|| yet?
I almost finished the game so yeah why
||cured the khara virus already šš||
i went down there last night and my prawn suit got bugged into the wall after the sea dragon took a chomp out of it lol
nice
I canāt blame the sea dragon I love me some prawns
ill be doing that probably either today or tomarrow
i need to get into the ||primary containment facility|| then ill cure the virus
any tips on how to avoid the sea dragon down there?
Do you have depth module mk3 on your prawn?
Kill it
Stasis rifle and some gas orbs
Oh yeah my bad
On the cyclops thereās 3 and the mk3 is the same as the prawn mk2
How do you avoid it with gas pods?
kill
You kill it by dropping gas pods on its face while itās immobilised
Leviathans donāt respawn
It isn't avoiding it though.
so how many gas pods would i need
If you kill all 22 reapers they wonāt bother you aswell
id beg to differ
Idk let me check
Real
Like a 100 maybe
Less if you also stab it
You can also just kill it with your prawn suit
But honestly Iāve never had an encounter I just try not to bother these guys
Yes, but if you just turn your engine off it won't care about you.
I mean I just swam right next to it with silent running in my cyclops
oh you bring ur cyclops?
Yeah
i just use the prawn
I like not having to jump around like a flea
i should be able to immobilize it then just swim right in
Yep
š dont disrespect my prrawn like that
I mean I basically only use the prawn to drill nowadays
i only have mk1 on the cyclops lmao
Eww
Poverty
Gross
also does a fully charge stasis rifle shot go forever until it hits something or does it have a time limit until it explodes mid air
It needs to hit something
If it doesnāt then it wonāt do anything
the best way to avoid the sea dragon is to go faster than it
Real
Do you have a climbing arm?
grapple arm?
Itās the slowest aggressive mob
Climbing module
The plunger on a rope basically
yea he means the grappling arm
oh
Iāve died to crash fish more than leviathans
Iām here almost every day
I play on mute a lot
But usually more late at night (US central time)
also i tried to do ignis's fix to prawn stuck in floor but my laptop is so bad when i pressed the low button my game crashed
Well it was worth a try
wait yall die to crashfish?
ive died to a gaspod-
Like I said I play on mute a lot
So I just donāt hear them coming
yea
plenty of times
its a cool base build idea
and its actually really safe if you have a base
since the ghost leviathans cant really do much
is it normal for the portals to take like 3 minutes to teleport you?
i hope we get base attacks in sub2
nope probably a pc issue
do you have a hard drive or ssd
i saw the gameplay trailer recently for sub2 and it looks so good
i use a 2021 laptop not made for gaming so its prob pc issue
uh open
task manager go to performance and look at your disc
it should say SSD or HDD
if you have an ssd its gonna impact loading times by a bunch so that could be the main reason it takes 3 minutes to teleport you
just usin an average 90 percent of my cpu
i keep forgeting fall damage is in this game
i just dont care lol
for some reason the reinforced dive suit also reduces fall damage
it seems to increase linearly as the height increases but it starts really low and increases really slow
I love to play subnautica ||high|| and the sounds are too much
Cat I need some context for your about me huh
ive fallen from heights that absolutely should have killed me but didnt (between the weird fall damage and sometimes the reinforced suit but not all of those instances were with it)
hm
IRL HABITAT š¤Æ
ive made it back to the cyclops
so i need 2 blue tablets to get all the stuff in the primary containment facility right?
Yes
You only get one you need to craft the other
ok
so when i get to the entrance of the active lava zone ima place a beacon
words cannot describe how much i hate warpers
i hate this game
oh my godd i hate this
last night i was getting trolled hard by the sea dragons
i made it to the active lava zone
im trying to get past the sea dragon but im so scared
Filthy clankers
Technically their cyborgs
despite being next to the ||sonic repellers or whatever|| that are generally supposed to make it avoid that spot it was circling my cyclops also despite the engine being off and me being in the prawn on the other side of the chamber
the building is RIGHT there i just auhguiah
the one from below also decided it didnt like it down there anymore and moved up with the one above ONLY when i was trying to get stuff from there
and after all that i couldnt find any more ||crystallized sulfur|| for my armada
after scouring lr for more im a few short
i need like 10 more š
SGHUSUAFGHAUH i hate this
do you have the shield generator
you can also go speed 1 on silent running to keep your profile as small as possible
Remember to use spoiler tags for late game stuff
I MADE IT IN
oh yea
