||deep grand reef||
pick up pdas in the second one and itll give you a ping
idk if my game was broken but i coudln't find that one in my most recent playthrough
Where is the second one?
||jellyshroom||
go to the first one on the ||floating island|| and pick up pdas for a ping
to get to the ||floating island|| you can go to ||lifepod 19||
and itll give you a ping
I was just at || jelly shroom|| and it didn’t give me a ping
yea cuz you gotta pick up pdas in the bases
i cant remember which one gives you the ping
I did though
check again
There was a lot of PDA’s there
All I got were mostly voice logs
Oh sorry
yeah you dont have it. have you checked all levels
No problem! It’s just that I was told to too because there might be new players in the server
Yeah I’m usually on top of spoiler tagging stuff
Yes, I’ll go back after I check Keene’s life pod area
are the safe shallows good for a first base
yea
absolutely
you can also make it in the grassy plateaus
which one is the best
I want one close to the mushroom forests
safe shallows is better imo
ok if you want close to mushroom maybe grassy
there's one right next to the northwest one
I dont plan on using solar anyway
Where are the || floating islands?||
||like the degasi one or the one with bonesharks||
i think youve already been there since you have the ||degasi logs from there||
unles you mean underwater islands
||there's only one, or are you thinking about underwater islands biome||
Not sure, I’m pretty sure Emily said floating islands
||how many actual islands have you came across||
None on my way here
if you dont plan on using solar, why not mushroom itself? i made mine in the northwest next to ||blood kelp|| it was really useful especially for late game if ykyk
I mean throughout your playthrough
Yeah, I haven’t seen any
Oh wait, do you mean the mountains?
Cause I do have the logs from there
The base on top of the hill?
2 buildings on 2 hills but yea thats one island
||first base - the southern island where the rendezvous is||
||second base - jellyshroom||
||third base - deep grand reef||
mushroom is cluttered
OK, yes . I might’ve just missed one of the PDAs in the second one
I can’t find the base again 😭
which one
Second
I can find the tiny compartment, but nothing at that after that
||there's the jellyshroom cave entrance near life pod 17, then just head to the far east of the cave system||
Also hi yall
O sorry, didnt see the channel and thought it wasnt on this server lol
you could turn off creature sounds and play music in the background
Found the PDA! It was in a locker that I didn’t see. Thank you so much guys.
Hi
who wanna do multiplayer on nitrox?
Late but I was taking a quiz. Anyway, that's why I said the discovered unknown
DM other people who asked that question in this chat
oh ye
there's the official nitrox server #subnautica-modding
So I just get jump scared when I turn 😭
i can
or keep creature sounds on and get used to it
can u play subnautica multiplayer or its js mods?
It's only with mod
ok ty for telling me
finally got all alien containment flora, fauna and all the cuddlefish eggs ❤️
Yaayyyyyyy
The last time I played Subnautica, it says I have put 407.5 hours total 😂 lets see what that number says after my stream today
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh when will be subnautica finally??????????????????????
in the calendar on the new video there on 23 star mabey will come out
look!
||YEAH!! I finally killed that assface, Im the Apex Predator on this planet!||
Its so crazy u can kill these
No matter the creature, giant, big, small, none of them can stand the toxic horror ||of a well placed FART....well, dozens of them, but yeah you get the idea ||
Its kinda silly to be honest lol
Yeah true, In my sub zero world i killed a ||shadow leviathan|| and its so dumb
im finally gots subnautica
Like make it unkillable cuz in no way u can kill such a creature with a knife or any blade type that small
Type shii
U got first one or bz?
That will be the case in Subnautica 2...
Perfect honestly
Will be so much more ''fun'' to explore
It better be, cause we can ||literally kill everything on this game, theres no real danger to be honest, they are easy to dodge, easy to spot, easy to hear, its honestly kinda HARD to die||
||I mean if u have no vehicle it is very much harder deeper down tbh||
Oh no for sure, but theres no reason why NOT have a vehicle either at that point haha
||Lets say ur grabbing plants, kyanite or sum like that||
guys im in my second playtrough rn, were should i make my base. in my first playthrough i just made it by my life pod
You never built anything else and stayed on the life pod for the whole game you mean?
Oh no wait im dumb
i cant read apparently
||Honestly either the sparse reef||
||Perhaps Grassy Plateaus or Grand Reef? idk, I always stay by the safe shallows myself, im simple like that lol||
||Lwk building at the lost river is so good i built there and sparse reef is so good aswell||
||im thinking of a border of the sparse reef, a little bit of all yk||
||i built my base next to deep grand reef, the grand reef and stuff. It was honesly great||
This is how it looked
nice
||This is what my safe shallows base looked like||
went this whole time without getting the rare cyclops voiceline, and now i got it twice in one day
ive never got it in a lot more hours
i got it once
I like this alot tbh
thx
The safest place on earth lmao
||i think im going to build my base hanging over the side of the bloodkelp ravine close to the grand reef||
if you could be in any lifepod which one would you pick?
I’d honestly go with lifepod 5 wbu?
||ofc 5, the only one in good state right||
Should I let my ||cuddlefish|| outside? I don’t want it to die
You can save, then release it to get achievement and play animations, then reload save and keep it safe in containment 🤷♂️
Good plan
Daring today, aren’t we?
It has 10k hp
In comparison reaper and sea dragon have 5k
Ghost 7,5k
Reefback 10k
||Cuddlefish|| is built different
I havent finished my replay, im just gonna get a headstart on my Permadeath run
I got 4 Time Capsules on this file, yippee
what does Unstuck do
Yeah but there’s still biters and sand sharks in the area so it’ll die eventually and I don’t want that to happen
do u guys know what happened to foxnautica? i’m trying to reach him
how long into your first play through did it take for yall to build a base
I got one with 12
guys is this normal, 2 reaper leviathans are near a biome where stalker sharks are, and its only 160 meters away from my lifepod.
Are you close to the Back Side of the Aurora
No i am not, i am indeed far away actually
I think thats not normal
oh alright thanks but hey its actually fun playing with the leviathans

btw i forgot to say that theyre NOT going back to which biome they belong, they just keep killing fishes and stuff
Can you send a Picture ?
one second let me try to take a picture safely
Ok
not pic but video
Ok
hold on
why did it fail
is the quality bad for me or?
ooh
let me retry man sorry
this is a picture where he went a little far from where he was but this the best i can show you right now
Must be The Reaper from the Back Side of the Aurora
I guess so yeah

this is so weird bro like i js went 200 meters away and now hes there chasing me
hes not going away either
Bro, it's a flying prawn suit.
Where do i find a cuttlefish egg
10 seconds
30 hrs but i know every Spot in the Game
guys im now gonna try to scan a reaper leviathan without stasis rifle
Peeek Picture
🖱️ 
its right next to my lifepod
My base spot is in the Sparse Reef
oh thats cool
It cool because there are no Creatures that attack u
Are you Playing alone
Is it normal that I got the ||sea treaders path notification|| while in the ||lost river||??
probably not
No 😂
I have also already been to the ||sea treader's path|| many times.
Where can I fine a cuddle fish egg?
||1 in each mushroom forest, 1 in dunes, 1 in 500m degasi base and 1 in the orange tablet cache||
Thanks
After so long, I'm back in this chat again. Nobody cares, because almost no one recognizes me. It's been a long time.
Um, hello
what the
Why do I get so forgetful and tired streaming Subnautica? It's so bizarre... Anyone have any clue?
It really seems like Time Capsules are so much more common in like Mushroom Forests and the Sparse Reef
Aaand mabye the Dunes, but im not about to found out, you cannot pay me lol
pay me 100 bucks and i'll actually consider /j
So I think one time I was in the ||lost river or forest (it has the grey vines|| and I found those small ||alien light things|| on the ground and I followed them but I kept losing the trail of them and I eventually left because I was getting too thirsty. Does anyone have any idea if I was even going the right way?
do you by chance have a screenshot?
I made this
Ok that is incredibly cool!
Toad singing my way has been stuck in my head for a bit now so it was fun to put it over the footage of ||killing Sammy the reaper||
That explains why it was there lmao, that's hilarious
crabsquid my beloved
O
holy fps
when was the last time you dusted it?
anyone wanna play nitrox multiplayer
We gotta talk about this twitch username.
its tuff
||Sea Dragons are officially EXTINCT||
||spoiler here||
||Copy this text and see how this works|| (no subnautica spoilers.)
how did you.. how... what??
Hey everyone🫡
Hiii
How are youu??
Ahh I see well making a painful journey to find glowsacks😅
And get the interior grow bed and outside one too lol
I just sent all 5 cuddlefish eggs into the void
you.. you monster!!
Good
well the reapers are all dead aswell soooo
i guess im the only monster
you... you hero!!!
I wouldnt say that yet, i brought sea dragons into the safe shellows
yeah i was waiting for subnautica 2
Mr. gluttonous going ||inside the ship just to get more power.||
https://m.youtube.com/shorts/5n2Do_4_yTA why didnt they tell me that reapers can fly
I think i might be cooked
You should have hatched them and then put them in the bioreactor becuase as eveyone knows the cuddle fish makes your bioreactor fuel last FOR EVER
Grown cuddlefishes cant be put in bioreacotrs
discord's formatting is just markdown, i used a backslash to prevent it from doing the thing
Aw man
anyone have any ideas where i should build my base? im on my first playthrough and taking my sweet time, and lwk havent made my base yet...
Where do you get blood oil?
Also why are the shroom seeds so painful to collect
I get damaged everytime i colect some
does anybody wanna play multiplayer?
||the blood kepl zone where lifepod 2 is ||
There is a trick: pick up shrooms, plant them in growbed and then slice for seeds, you won't be damaged that way.
I was afraid to click on the radio again bc it might ve been the sunbeam message
Is multiplayer available for the new subnautica update
But wait, i have mods installed
Multiplayer is only with mods.
Why would they send another message in the middle of the game
Maybe he knows the radio calls and hasn't had them all yet 🤷♂️
M
Use spoiler tag for that.
||But the sunbeam is dead and he should only get distress signals now right||
Im still at the start of the game
Not if he hasn't yet listened to all those radio calls🤷♂️
Why do you need blood oil at the beginning 😭
Do your mods change that you cannot get copper from limestone or barnacles?
Barnacles?
Reefbacks have barnacles on their backs, which can be broken for copper (90%) or silver (10%).
Ah try going north west from your lifepod you can find then ||blood kelp zone it's probably 1000-1300m away from your lifepod||
I have the renewable resource mod
I have no idea what that mod does🤷♂️
yo can someone help me im too scared to go near the aurora
Are you planning to go inside?
yes to get the seamoth module
should i use seamoth?
There is nothing in front of it thats too dangerous
If you swim on the surface
Other than the radiation
No
They are always in the back iirc
and when i wanna go to lifepod 19 it looks like im going to the dunes
bro the water is not that deep
From the lifepod, in a straight line you won't touch the dunes.
so why is there big volcanos sticking up from the ground
wait do i go with seamoth or seaglide
ChatGPT didn't play the game.
Yes, but you expect it to give you relevant answers for things like Subnautica. It isn't like it has a lot of data. And Reddit isn't reliable.
It's up to you. Make sure to not beach the Seamoth if you use it. Also the reaper might be interested if he sees it.
if it sees it will he take it and break it
Yes.
have you played subnautica 2?
Just don't park it in his field of view and you should be fine. And I can't answer your last question I'm under NDA for everything concerning UWE that hasn't made public.
I can tell you that playtesters with the roles where playtesters for SN1 / BZ and playtesting on SN2 was done via the User Research. They don't have any particular role.
They can be anywhere. 🕵️
sn1 means subnautica 1 right?
Yes.
ima park my seamoth a bit close to the aurora will the reaper still get it?
Unless he is in the vicinity and sees it, no. Again you have to hide it a bit from his view.
You don't have to be inside a vehicle for them to be interested in it.
yeah ima hide it in blue water not the brown stinky water
I disabled creature agression
i have a doubt
how does ryley stay alive at 1700m
video game
this is what I've always wondered
as a scuba diver myself j knlw how much the pressure affects a human body from just small descents into the water
we do have methods of dealing with it in terms of comfort, but realistically, recreational divers cannot survive much deeper than 45m
i do know of divers going deeper but that's not recreational and they have very hunky equipment to deal with that
how can riley survive ascending from 300m to the surface in 10 seconds
He's just built like that
that makes me cringe bc there's no decompression stops 😭😭
im surprised he doesn't die of the bends before anything else
the bends no longer exist, nitrogen has been erased from existence
LMAO
no like i understand he can survive with like RDS but the normal suits such as rad suit or stillsuit
i dont understand
he would feel so drunk ngl
(You can try deathrun mod which has the bends...)
ooh god
subnautica has good physics except for the goofiest glitches
Oh yes, deathrun mod also has personal crush depth, so you need reinforced dive suit to dive deep...and then you need to upgrade the suit to dive even deeper...
him with RDS surviving those depths is understandable
but i dont understand how he survives with ALL ENVIRONMENT SUIT
Like said, in deathrun he won't survive...
Also technically reinforced dive suit doesn't include helmet, so even in deathrun you could dive with radiation helm or bare headed and not take damage due to depth...
also how much protection only the gloves or the suit give
I don't remember the numbers, but majority of damage reduction comes from the reinforced dive suit. But you could use water filtration suit and get a little damage protection from the reinforced gloves 🤷♂️ (radiation suit is all or nothing: remove one part and you take full radiation damage...)
40 12.
I found this on the heat protection division between suit and gloves, but not how damage reduction is divided
And Ignis came with the info while I was searching and typing😅
40 12?
I screenshotted the code there.
40 For suit
I guess 40% suit and 12% gloves
and 12 for gloves?
doesnt thst add up to 52% protection
Yes it does
That 52 % total damage reduction I found when searching
Of course if you use reinforced dive suit, there's no reason to not use also the gloves. Info on the division is mostly relevant when using gloves with water filtration suit 🤷♂️
but the game only reduces it to 50
Are you sure? How closely you have compared damages with and without suit+gloves?
Warning Entering Ecological Dead Zone. Adding Report To Databank
bro this just happened to me 
Better question why is the water dark?
Hello, quick question: is there any way to play again with the mods we used in the legacy version? I wanted to use the Alterra Hub mod from FCS, but it doesn't seem to work very well now. If you could help me, that would be awesome.
Lol. I got the radiation suit and the countdown sequence that should lead to the Aurora going kaboom and it hasn't exploded
There was a floater on my seamoth and I genuinely thought I had stick drift 😭
lol
floaters are annoying
Very
i dont understand why in creative mode you start with 5 of them
I am looking for the upgrade console since a while i cant find the blue print for it can someone help me ?
In the wreck above lifepod 19
It's an exposed data box around the wreck so you won't need a laser cutter to obtain it, but I'd bring one anyways as you can get the reinforced dive suit there too
are ion batteries better than the normal ones
Yes
Thank you
i finally actually bought subnautica
Quick question:
Is there a mod, or a command to hide the scanner icon?
I find it annoying and don't plan to read all the data entries
You can just scan things without reading the databank entries.
same goes for the yellow icons, indicating a new entry
who doesnt scan the things??
anyone remember where the moon pool fragments are its been like a year since I last played subnautica
near any wreck
alr ty
theyre everywhere especially the one near aurora
||mushroom forest|| is one of the biomes
k thanks
Are you sure ? I just explored this 10 Times and didnt find it
Guys do reaper leviathans respawn if they’re killed?
my profile was working so well till i couldn't change my nickname
the pronouns will do 
What do you want?
Depends how they are killed: if killed by another creature they respawn, if killed by player not (apparently gas pod counts as 'killed by creature')
It Is around the scattered wreck by the big hole, just look for the blue light of the databox
Reaper don't respawn if killed by another creature Mika. I feel like I confused you.
Make sure your detail option is on high if you play on PC Marta.
can someone help me why are textures 50m away from me loading only when i come up near them i hate it
oh sorry
Oh alright I killed a few with my prawn suit
Is sub2 supporting VR?
Yes, you did confuse me...so the 'killed by other creature' only applies to sharks?
okay ill try now
No.
It's an option you only see when in the main menu.
Not in the pause menu.
yes yes i realised it just now
If Its that one I have already taken it and I still dont have the upgrade console
do metal salvages respawn
No.
You appear to be in the wrong place
so youre saying that the world has a finite amount of resources
it didnt seem to fix it or im just stupid
That's the wreck in the grand reef. The one your looking for is in the sparce reef. Above pod 19
Oh okay thanks a lot
like it isnt loading
Yes, but it's probably more than you imagine:
thought it would have more copper
Still little confused: what's the difference when for example cuddlefish has 'false' and 'false', but reaper has 'false' and 'true'?
If false is in the first column they don't respawn. If it's true in the first column, then you have to check the second to see if they respawn when “killed by another creature” or all the time.
It doesn't matter what is in the second column is respawn is set to false.
I can show you the code.
wait the sea emporors can die?
good luck killing her XD
Ok, it just seemed strange to see both true and false on the second column with false on the first and I thought if there's a difference. I don't need the code...
(It, not her, and that one is different)
oh, not a her?
I see
I mean, it's probably there after some sort of debugging and they never changed it to false false
Creatures on the planet have no genders, so everything is 'it', not 'he' or 'she'...
More like they copied / pasted the component from another fish and didn't change the value.
Which isn't very relevant as it isn't checked if the first one is set to false anyway.
||I thought the emperor was from another planet. Doesn't an alien terminal say so?||
I finally found it thanks a lot
Of course ^^ it's a bit of an odd one to get as it's not technically " in " the wreck. There Is one inside a proper wreck in the grassy plateus but the sparse reef one is easier to get
Dunes wreck and Mushroom Forest wreck.
Databoxes are at various places.
I agree it's easier to spot in Sparse Reef though.
no but her children can
oh alr
awwww thats no fun
hi im looking for mod station fragments and I literally can not find it for the life of me
the wiki says it can spawn at a wreck in the ||NW mushroom forest|| but I can't find that either
Is there a mod that s the scanner camera has a drill?
Modification station fragments can spawn in sparse reef, mushroom forest and wrecks in grassy plateaus
Uhm, hey, buddy...?
bros mogging
he's not really moving he's just staring at me through the window
i feel uncomfortable
but hes majestic ngl
I have found fragments st the ||proposed Degasi location|| before. That's a small chance
ngl the pda scares me the most of any creature
go knife him
nah we chill imma just gently push him
oh okay bye big boy
warra capsule
Why?
cuz the things it says it just creeps me out sometimes lol
like when you enter the ||bloodkelp||
Interesting, never thought that was a thing
im curious what the pda actually does outside of its "survival mode" we see ingame
wait ya'll ever seen an ||infected crabsquid|| before?
prolly not
i didnt even know that was possible and i saw one
Yes actually
dude he's such a cutie he's my friend now
Tasty
wasnt there a discord activity when u play subnautica it would say how deep and where u are?
well not an activity but a status on your profile
There is a basic rich presence but I think there is a mod that expands on it. The vanilla one doesn't have things like the depth.
is there any cannonical explanation as to how the player can enter the Seamoth and the Prawn Suit underwater without flooding the vehicles immediately
No.
internal pumps that pump the water out?
You somehow can open hatches under extreme pressure underwater and also not scuttle the vehicle
The Cyclops makes sense I think
So, looking at the entering animation, the hatch only enters when we are directly above it and we're looking down, so I think a case could be made that the moth surrounds the player in some elastic dome that keeps the water out
Yes, but those slots have so many different fragment options, that it's not the best option to search for specifically modification station 🤷♂️
bro where can i find nikkel
you gotta go low
what does that mean bro
it's close to the floor and deep-ish
yea, in the area
ok thx
is there no pda where ||officer keen was?||
there most definitely is, that's how you get the coordinates for ||the Rendezvous||
there is litterly only ||uranite|| down here
im just at the ||lifepod where he was|| at and i only got the ||ultra high capacity tank||
nope, you just gotta keep looking
gimme one moment please
here
wtf there wasnt anything
Thx random tree
and then another
im being camped bro
There is one pda inside the lifepod 19 and another one outside it
bruh my save is bugged then
(Ah, someone already shared screenshots...)
but there was pdas in the lifepod 3
can this guy like actually stop camping me
imma prolly check later then maybe
I don't think PDA's are physics objects, are they?
you sure you don't already have them?
What gamemode are you playing? Maybe some PDA's don't spawn in creative?
Guys how do i scare the fish off
fight him 1v1
nah i dont wanna kill the leviathans i already killed one accidently before
did you leave the prawn out there?
no the prawn is behind me im inside it now
he lowk only do 9 dmg i can just grapple outta there
you have grapple, you have an exit nearby
nah im actually lowk hitching a ride
screenshot copied to clipboard 🗣️
xd
kill him
dude no
yes
it ruin the area
survival of the fittest
@dusk pumice can i just go to the|| island|| without the pda
after all he keeps the cave prowlers away
not the e island the floating island
yes
okay ty
That's kind of contrived
I hope they address these kind of problems in S2
Sure, you just don't get beacon marker for it
does there exist subnautica rizz
honestly. I don't really know if there's a single leviathan that is more than just a minor inconvenience
i dont think i've ever found ||moonpool fragments|| in the ||sparse reef||
i always look for it in the ||mushroom forest||
idk i just activate the ||second officer keen beacon||
mind you i only went to the sea treaders path for the first time ever yesterday
oh okay
they actually pretty op ngl
How do you sensor the words?
Like it’s gray, you click on it. It’s not how do you do that?
i put || around each side kf the word
theres an easier way
||like this||
Where do I find the last stasis rifle fragment I need
when u type u just like select the word and 6 options will pop up, the eye is the censor
if on pc
yeah
I’m not on pc
Ok
my method works
.
||this||
nice
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
poifect
Floating Island or Underwater Islands.
Sometimes around the Jellyshroom ||Degasi||.
And wrecks in Bulb Zone, Safe Shallows, Kelp Forest.
Reaper can be annoying when he lowk carries you to tokyo
The wiki could be more precise with the wreck part.
i was thinking that lmao
wait what
They used the same base-code as SN1. With the same assets. Later they removed things like textures, models. At some point in EA you could spawn SN1 creatures.
Hi, where can I find the Gargantuan mod for Subnautica 1?
github or in their discord iirc
thanks
whats best prawn suit combo to destroy leviathans
grapple + normal arm
guys where do i find lots of drillable lithium
no leviathan (even gargantua or whatever) is scary because stasis rifle is sitll in the game
change my mind
i remember finding some in the ||lost river||. there was some drillable titatium but im not sure if its abundant
when i was making a giant tube outta boredom i mostly got my titanium from the creepvine forests and the shallows. from metal salvage. cuz i was lazy
wasnt lazy enough to not make that giant tube but smh i was too lazy to go down there to check how much titanium was there
Mushroom Forest (can't remember which one has the most), and Mountain Island Caves I think and definitely in the ||Lost River||
im obsessed with this game i really need to know these things better
Practice. Even I'm still learning
Does nitrox work with the latest version?
Hull reinforcement does stack. The first upgrade reduces it by about 50% while the second reduces it by 75%
and for leviathans?
No they do not
DANGIT
Hull reinforcement upgrade module reduces only collision damage (making it totally useless on prawn).
It also does not help against crush depth
I added a storage mod to the sea maoth but not seeing a storage increase. It was docked a the time
The storage module appears as a physical thing on the side of the Seamoth so you need to interact with it
Storage modules in seamoth add a locker. The placement corresponds to the placement of the module (left/right and top/bottom).
I was looking to the other side. Thanks!
If you add more storage modules on seamoth, each adds a separate locker. Opposed to prawn where each storage module adds one row (6 slots) to prawn default inventory.
Thx. Still missing Aero Gel for the Prawn sit
Trench with lifepod 19 has all the materials needed for aerogel...
Thx. Know any good Magnetite spots?
Jellyshroom caves
Great thx for the help!
Around the mountain island has lots of lithium and magnetite too
Been getting lots of Li but have not found magnetite yet. need to go back there. Is it in the caves?
There is no magnetite on mountain island, but it can be found in mountains biome...
I’ve seen people make small bases around the map with like a scanner room and a few other things
I’m gonna do that myself I think
I also noticed that the scanner room in my main base doesn’t show that there’s any sandstone, shale, or lithium nearby, which means I weeded out the entire mushroom forest near my base
Yea. Ill make a scanner room near the glowing shrooms cave
So i can make another chase drone with which i can mine stuff
Probably gonna make one in ||lost river|| because that place has some good materials
Tf
Never using the drone tho because it will die super fast to prowlers
still trying to make sense out of the scanner room maps. need to look it up
I’m just gonna make scan range upgrades in the mini outposts
bro's just chillin i dont see whats wrong
(Or exploit the bug that makes scanner room scan at max 500m even without range upgrades...)
I thought stalkers were the only creatures showing any interest to camera drones🤷♂️
Scanner room map is irrelevant if you have hud chip
I don’t really know but I’m not gonna test it
What does the hud chip do
I think prowlers just attack everything
Displays locations of scanned items on your interface
What interface
Wait so does it carry over for every scanner room or does it only broadcast the stuff that a specific room is scanning?
You can see where the items are from far away
All scanner rooms
Bc i have it and i dont see the difference
If you have the hud chip it carries over for each scanner room, as long as your in range
That’s a relief
At the same time...
bro is in the safe shallows
Not if your scanner rooms are far away...
Are you scanning for anything? You can see where the objects should be from the orange circles
Ah
...yep.......which is normal
Oh yes, that would be bad...but don't scan at the same time from two very different locations...
they don't spawn there but often wander
My plan for the scanner rooms are
Probably ||jellyshroom caves for magnetite||
The ||lost river for nickel and crystal sulfur||
Maybe ||dunes|| too? I’m just brainstorming
Mountains is unironically a good place for a scanner from my experience. Magnetite, Ruby, shale, sandstone etc. Pretty much every mid to late game material you'll need
Wow
I’ll do that right away
Just be mindfull of the reapers
Probably gonna put it on surface because of the amount of hostile things in the water
i never thought there was anything of value in the mountains lol
Surprisingly alot
Does the scanner room scan for leviathans or living things?
Cyclops engine frags and a bunch of decent materials
I see the scan results now. Dam stalkers keep taking my cameras :}
It can scan for leviathans
Leviathans yep
Alright that’ll be a big help when going on a resource run
And I’ll put it on the surface because of the hostile environment there
If you want lots of quartz and titanium take a prawn suit down to the dunes. Just bring a cyclops full of lockers too, you'll be swimming in the stuff
give me subnautica rizz
It's got salt there too but, there's safer places for salt
Where can i unlock the bed
Aurora, some deep wrecks, and ||500m degasi wreck||
So here’s the list I have (full spoilers because I don’t know what counts)
||Mountains for a wide variety of things
Jellyshroom caves for magnetite
Dunes for wrecks and stuff
And lost river for crystal sulfur and nickel||
Iirc also ||250m degasi base has bed||
I wouldn't say dunes for wrecks. The few small wrecks that are there kinda suck. And the ||lost river|| has pretty much every resource in abundance barring magnetite and ||kyanite||
Oh yeah that one too
dunes is great for silver too btw
Forgot it had a bed. I mainly go there for the water filtration machine
this shi like the ep files with everything redacted
Oh then just for good resources
Lr has magnetite
It does?
oh, just take a look at the Mio general chat
Only in the cove tree though no?
Maybe it's only there🤷♂️
Yeah, I don't usually find it elsewhere in the lr
am i the only one scared to traverse ||the floating island|| at night
Only hostiles at the floating islands are bonesharks
Pretty safe area honestly.
I’m gonna put a solar panel on the dunes room because
It’s the only underwater one that can see the surface
It could serve as an air checkpoint
Oh, there's no hostiles on the way or around it so. It's perfectly safe to travel there
How should I power my other ones? Bioreactor? Thermal plant?
If it's more than 200m down solar panels don't work
ye ye ik but i feel unsafe at night idk why 😭
Actually also in ||ghost forest and bone fields||
How should I power my outposts? I’m gonna put the mountains one above ground so that one doesn’t need any power (I believe)
If you can use thermal first. Bases have a power priority system. The first power source you place down is the first your base draws from. It's best to build your renewable ( thermal / solar) before non renewables (bio reactor and nuclear). You then have a primary which always runs, and a backup which runs when needed (I reccomend atleast 5 thermal reactors since it's a mid tier energy generator)
If your doing thermal you'll need to be by a heat generator though, or just connect it to your base through power transmitters
^ can attest to the fact that thermal is one of the best
ten million solar panels
Especially if your semi deep
||Jellyshroom caves|| have Oculus and Eyeye along with crabsnake eggs so that one will work fine, I’ll put the room so that the panels can see the sunlight and have a permanent power source
Above surface bases only have air without power, everything that uses power still needs a power source to the base (for example scanner room)
There's a large area of thermal in the jellyshroom caves
if you're building in ||jellyshroom|| i highly highly recommend thermal
OH RIGHT
guys how do i tell my friends that subnautica is top 5 survival games ever and that they should play it without them saying "i saw some of it on youtube it looks aight"
I forgot about the thermal vents
Plus you need magentite for thermal. Which is abundance in the jellyshroom caves
Too bad that the power priority is basically randomized when reloading a save...
Really?
Jellyshroom caves will be my first outpost location, due to magnetite being the most important resource in this operation
I've never noticed. I only ever end up using thermal
It's basically the same idea, but instead of order they're built, it's the order the game loads them, and that's more or less random🤷♂️
I reccomend jellyshroom caves. Dunes , lr and blood kelp forest for scanner outposts. Pretty good areas
ohhhh right yea i did some tests with this a while ago, it's randomized on load in
The dunes one will have to be above 200m because there’s not THAT many heat sou- wait does it?
It has a few heat areas
But they all have reapers around them
Except that solar or thermal connected with power transmitters tend to get loaded last...
I remembered seeing the heat effect on my screen once while somewhere in the dunes
But for now I’ll just do the safe option of solar panels
yep cuz they take longer to load in, one sec i can find the thread with my tests (it was on my other account)
So I’ll start off in jellyshroom, then go to dunes lost river, and then blood kelp, before making one in the lost river
just do nuclear atp
where should i build my base in subnautica
The lost river itself will just unironically provide the resources you need for all of them
grassy plateaus near jellyshroom
Alright so lost river first?
I'd reccomend grassy plateus. Not too deep but enough room to build
I just got a repulsion cannon with an ion battery from a time capsule and it randomly disappeared from my inventory
If your at that stage sure. I'd build near the ||sea dragon skeleton|| lots of thermal around it
I assume that's just a thing that the game does
I built my base in the grassy plateaus bordering a kelp forest and mushroom forest with blood kelp and dunes nearby
Did you accidentally drop it?
No, it just disappeared
It shouldn't disappear by itself🤷♂️
close to the best ||lost river|| entrance (bk trench) and near mushroom forest
only problem is underwater islands is on the other side of the map so silvers boutta be annoying
ok so i remembered wrong, on every load in the order of power draw is completely randomized
#📚wiki-discussion message
I assume there's some sort of check the game runs because it's the start of my run and I'm not "supposed" to have ion tech yet
I’ll probably make my first one in the jellyshroom caves because that place feels like a good starting area for scanning outposts, once I feel like I’m ready I’ll make a lost river one
There isn't such check...many players have gotten those batteries in tools in time capsules
is blood oil the best for bioreactors?
Occulus fish is
No, oculus
650 power units per fish I believe
630
cuddlefish eggs/hoverfish
Close enough
That’s why I made an oculus farm in my base alongside reginalds
That's only if you're evil
idk i always planted blood oil next to my base and used that, is that okay sm or?
Food and power
From my experience any item that takes up 4 slots in a bioreactor is useless
Oculus is 630 for one slot, blood oil is 420 for 4 slots...gel sack is the best plant source at 245 per slot (and pales in comparison to many small fish)
gel sack is okay also ngl cuz i always plant it i guess
then u have more experience than me lol
I mean I'm close to like 900 hours now
If it works for you it's fine🤷♂️ blood oil has the benefit of not needing replanting (but then again, fish also breed by themselves in alien containment 🤷♂️)
i never tried it lol 😂 i am 2 hrs into my new save so i guess i can try new things
Oh yeah, mika peep the cyclops setup
Oculus containment needs a bit more preparations than blood oil farm🤷♂️

also how do i turn on snap mode in habitat building
Build a Singular piece and any close by will snap to its grid
Pieces far from eachother will have their own grids
I don't see any plant pots or growbeds for food?
But happy to see no power cell chargers😅
I have 3 plant pots in the pilot room, marbomellon bulbo and lantern. Plus a locker of cured Reginald and a locker of +50 water
does anyone use power cell chargers in the cyclops
I dont personally
Quite many players try to...
Guys what do I name my cyclops
I just have a locker of batteries and power cells
I named mine behemoth
That’s pretty fire
I don't think it's wise to talk about topics like him
ye sry i just like to joke around
dont mean any harm lol
😂 😂 😂
welp thats what im gonna name it in this playthrough prolly
Not sure this is an appropriate discussion
As I've told them but, seems they much don't care
we ended it
Wanna get Cerbi?
Eh, as long as they stop I'm fine
Your call, I've been away from this server for a while so
no no we stop man
YO WAIT is colossus fire?
I'd say so
That’s what I’m doing then
The cyclops is a big vessel. It deserves a name which represents that
are we storing the entire lost river in there
im prolly gon name mine my beautiful dark twisted fantasy
Probably could
I do plan on building a Mega storage base so
I'll need the carrying power in the cyclops
yo i just got subnautica and im about to first time play it
any tips on how to start properly?
If you havnt seen much of the game I'd reccomend not looking up guides or references
Just read your PDA
Play slow, read the data banks and have fun
ok
have fun, read everything, explore everywhere
and dont unhover the redacted messages in this chat
nonononono
And yea what the other guy said, try to play without any guidance, first subnautica expirience is the best expirience 👍
I'd reccomend not showing a new player anything
i might give updates on my progress and ask on what to do in certain situations
Let them figure things out on their own
Spoiler free starter tips:
- start by reading pda
- check pda and fabricator for blueprints available, collect materials for basic equipment and tools and craft them
- explore
- scan everything (and read pda to learn what you scanned)
- repair radio and listen to messages when you get them
- if unsure what to do next, the answer is usually explore (deeper) or read pda or both
okay, might come in handy
ok ima launch the game
wish me luck
have fun bro
you lose inventory resources but not tools if you die so dont be afraid to explore
got it
Honestly I'd say the air bladder is one of the best early game tools
once you enter your base, all items in your inventory are saved, that's why your tools always get saved cuz you make them there
And even the resources are not lost forever: they're dropped on the spot
doesn't the air bladder actually work pretty well as an air source
if you have like 12 in your inventory
It's better to get you to the surface than an air refill
am i the only one that thinks this is so unsettling
It's the only thing you can see from the surface. The only reminder of where you came from. Crashed. Burning. Everything you once had gone. So yes, it's meant to be unsettling to see. And it does a damn good job at it
you should check out whats behind it
Not if you are inside a xave or wreck and running pit of oxygen...
Do not mislead new players
No trolling new players...
dam
Just remembered one tip: check the inside of your lifepod, there's a locker and hatch on the bottom (the locker I didn't notice on my whole first playthrough and the bottom hatch took several hours until I noticed it...)
Guys, watch my modded Subnautica stream
I only ever noticed the bottom hatch because I had stick drift and was forced to look down 😭
you mean this one?
Looks nice in my opinion
the hatch i found out already
Yes, that's the locker (which I didn't see on my first playthrough 😅😫)
Yes that locker. I wouldn't reccomend wasting nutrient blocks. Save them for if you need them in emergency as they are non craftable. And limited.
It's easier to rely on fish when possible
if you want the game to look scarier turn color grading in settings > graphics to filmic
I'd say filmic just looks nicer in general
ok
(And also non-spoiling, so can be stored for eternity.)
it is annoying to see at night though with filmic
I have made my first outpost
Cope. Its still pretty
does filmic impact fps
Full range upgrades with thermal plant nearby
not a lot because it's just a color filter
btw do you know how to spoil tag images and texts
It also doubles for resources above the fields
I’m gonna get so much magnetite from this
You can make both if you have enough. But I'd reccomend staying away from this server and play the game uninterrupted on your own
both
ok
yea, what they said
yeah
i upvote this
The game is so enjoyable blind. I wish I knew nothing on first playthrough
same
I'd say go for blood kelp next
if you need actual help and are really stuck, find a youtube vid don't read stuff here, and don't unspoiler stuff
how to find easily gold?
Youtube videos can also spoil...
Sandstone from grassy plateus / drillable from ||lost river|| / blood kelp zone
Sandstones, in kelp forest, grassy plateaus and some safe shallows caves
thxx guyss
nah bro im waiting till daytime
Do you want a hint for night?
go on
The safe shallows are relatively harmless. If you have a flashlight you'll be okah
i know
true but a small guide might spoil less than an entire server about sn
its just so scary
just let him play xd uninstall discord
That's the ocean for ya
Edible fish are more passive at night, so they are easier to catch. Use night tine to stock food and bladderfish for water. But only cook fish when you need to eat
Or cure them with salt
ok
btw i just saw a reefback
But I'd say that's more mid game when you actually have a decent amount of salt
i know its harmless, but damn its big
or a water filter
Oh god I can't find a flat land to build my base in the mushroom forest 😭
The trees are everywhere
Build on top of trees😜
Oh you won't there
Amen. Always fun to do that
That's what I was thinking about too
yo where do i find seaglide fragments
I could go to ||dunes I'm sure the reapers will enjoy their new company||
Safe shallows in open cargo boxes. Or the static spawn one in lifepod 3
You'll need two of them to unlock the blueprint
Build ontop of the ||mountain island||
But i wanna build underwater 😔
Shhh... land bases are a good thing.. they don't need to worry about hull pressure.. this is a good thing..
We can finally be bees mark..
I made a stake
Rock
A STEAK!?
Floating rock
Did yall know if you hold the swim up button and swim up its faster then using just one method
no like the things in the distance
Yes mark look i made a stake
yes
That's a good point but imagine looking out of your window and you see the cute fishes swimming
My bad i havent played in months
Probably the garssy plateaus
Okay but how about looking out of your window and seeing skyrays
Oh you got me there
But still there's only skyrays in the sky but underwater there are a lot of fishes
Tree
This is where my base is and I can confidently say its the best spot for a base
A 5 biome intersection
Why is he telling the truth?
The reaper would like to have a word about your rent
Thats ronda
||mountain Island|| has trees....?
Ronda was married to robert reaper but they divorced and robert lives behind the aurora
Bulbo tree.
Life if reapers could travel the entire map
My base is nearby too
I can grow them
Nice
Yes but in the sea can you grow them outdoors? Can you grow anything outdoors? No. No you can't. You can't feel the fresh breeze whilst harvesting your Mellons and fruit
That's exactly where my moonpool is rn recharging my seamoth
How far down should my ||blood kelp outpost|| be? I’m gonna use solar panels for power
How it felt late game crafting the long submarine for the first time
Oh... that's sad I met robert he bit me 4 times
yo where tf do i find copper
If your using solar it can't be more than 200m down. And anywhere below 100m solar power is less efficient
for da seaglide
Limestone outcrop
Funnily enough, any plant that you can grow in the game can be planted in outdoor growbed (because it can be built both underwater and above surface)
Alright I’ll do it above 100m
and where are those
Those big swimming whales with 3 tails have barnacles on them that give copper
everywhere
Outdoor growbed my beloved
In the red grass biomes
Raaah how do you make such genius points 😭
Where should I put it for best scans?
Quite litterally everywhere
you mean the reefbacks?
I major in english language
Idk where the blood kelp outpost should be for max scan efficiency
Yuh
ok
The blood kelp biome is too deep for solar. Yet lacks heat vents
Your basically forced to use bio or nuclear
Is that so I see
Lucky for you deep acid mushrooms grow abundantly there
I’m probably gonna put it up higher and use full scan range
For a permanent power source
The happy 150m deep adult ghost:
Nuclear power is the best its really crazy
Yeah I’m gonna use bioreactor for that one
I'm just gonna build on the mushroom tree now I give up in looking for flat land
Tree
The oculus farm in my main base will be helpful
Grassy plateaus is flat
Yeh but mushroom forest is near ||blook kelp zone||
"blook"
I need to keep revisiting the ||lost river||
Blook
Yes blook
I will stand by what I Said
Thats why my base spot is objectively the best in the game its a 5 biome intersection and the ||blood kelp zone|| is like 300m away
if you stand for nothing what'll you fall for?
that makes no sense in this context i just wanted to say it
When the south ||lost river || entrance is the best but nobody is ready for that convo
Now I can see what you mean it does seem pretty good except Ronda
look in the BIG coral tubes
like ||in bkt||?
Good question i wouldn't know the answer to that myself
through the grand reef?
