subnautica-2-chat

[lusty sierra]

as for what out of bounds means i do not know
invisible wall? just void between it and the playable area? both? dunno

[golden quail]

I still get scared of Reapers to this day

[rigid path]

I feel like my friends will lead me to an area that is totally safe and say "go collect some resources in that biome, there are a lot of em' over there"

[whole wing]

Exactly. I don't need to outswim the predator. I just need to swim faster than my friend.

[golden quail]

Despite having all these custom leviathan mods installed

[frail mesa]

It'd be cool if there WAS something at the big coral area, but it was surrounded by void. And we have to get past the shiver leviathan to get to it

[grim coyote]

So will subnautica 2 come in May

[rigid path]

just a rumor

[brittle cloak]

they just want a hug :)

[rigid path]

a big, red, hug

[normal holly]

they hugged my seamoth

[solar locust]

they probably won't comment here

[golden quail]

It’ll release when the devs say it’ll come out, and I’m looking forward to said day in the meantime :>

[frail mesa]

All you gotta do with reaper boys is weave. Pretty easy to out maneuver them lol

[neon sapphire]

maybe

[neon sapphire]

Ba dum tsss

[rigid path]

badum-tsss

[golden quail]

True, but I hear their roar and my soul dies a little

[normal holly]

when the devs want to release the game they can release it

[frail mesa]

I see ✨️Rammstein✨️ song in username

[neon sapphire]

???

[brittle cloak]

early access maybe, not the full release

[frail mesa]

Lmao, Engel is a Rammstein song

[neon sapphire]

Oh you meant my display name

[grim coyote]

My switch's battery gave out, and I've already accidentally disabled achievements on my Xbox save because my controller landed on my bed in a way that it activated the dev panel, and BZ's whole gameplay is pretty much "listen to Al-an" which isn't as good as SN1

[rigid path]

is the game really that polished as we see in the trailers. because to be honest early acces doesn't have to be perfect. that's why you release into EA so we can give feedback and report bugs

[frail mesa]

Yup yup, you a fan?

[neon sapphire]

Kinda

[frail mesa]

What songs do ya like from them?

(Sorry, should probably take to #off-topic)

[brittle cloak]

i don't remember if they released a similar trailer for below zero before early access but i do remember the game being very much not polished early on

[golden quail]

What I’m really looking forward to are all the new creatures in Sn2

[pastel moth]

they're showing us curated footage of course and we've seen changes over time

[frail mesa]

I hope we get more goofy fish

[rigid path]

uh-huh

[rigid path]

yeaaaaaa!

[lusty sierra]

it certainly seems like we have no shortage of those, thankfully

deeply unserious creatures

[frail mesa]

My alien containment will have ALL goofy fish. Serious fish will be ejected into the vacuum of space

[neon sapphire]

Du Hast and Ausländer

[grim coyote]

And I've been watching the Steve fish video for DAYS on end

[golden quail]

Goober coded critters

[neon sapphire]

Is the Garryfish a goober

[true nymph]

you rang

[frail mesa]

new profile pic

[grim coyote]

You know the Steve fish video of "I can't believe it's finally me and you and me and you and me and you and your friend Steve. Steve" I've been watching it for HOURS on loop

[solar locust]

when your vehicle escapes the planet without u, you might need to rethink your blueprints lmao

[frail mesa]

Yall what if we get a goofy leviathan. The rest are serious, but one just has big googly eyes or something

[solar locust]

if there isnt one, someone will mod it

[true nymph]

fish with goofy looking eyes are honestly scarier

like seven gill sharks

[frail mesa]

I'd mod it in to my vanilla playthrough

[pastel moth]

flip over the marrowbreach and you get a very goofy critter

[dark imp]

ow.

[frail mesa]

He yawn

[whole wing]

Hey Devs 🙂 , will small submersibles capsize slightly? The way bases will when they don't have enough reinforcement?

[true nymph]

is its eye actually on it's bottom jaw

[pastel moth]

yep

[neon sapphire]

Du
Du hast
Du hast mich /lyr

[true nymph]

that's already pretty goofy

[pastel moth]

same with the nibbler mango

[neon sapphire]

Is that Dr. Ian Malcolm

[frail mesa]

Why ofc

[neon sapphire]

Mango
Mango
Mango

[warm lion]

base reinforcing aint coming back

[neon sapphire]

Why

[warm lion]

was just annoying

[grim coyote]

Will you fix bases setting their support legs to submarines

[frail mesa]

All that lithium 😭

[pastel moth]

it's possible that it gets added later on

I won't miss it personally

[frail mesa]

Do yall think we'll have leviathan equivilants similar to how it was between SN1 and BZ

Like the Chelicarate was similar to reaper

[waxen gorge]

Fr it served no purpose other to pmo

Idont even know how the base still floods and stuff nothing runs into it lol

[waxen gorge]

Like im in the least pressured area the safe shallows and it’s acting like in in the Mariana Trench

[pulsar flume]

will the pda need software updates in sn2

[frail mesa]

Imagine logging in and telling yo friend you cant give him copper cuz yo PDA is updating

[jagged pelican]

this is the most random question i've seen all day

[pulsar flume]

i mean it would be a cool feature

maybe like some sort of pda OS

[jagged pelican]

personaly i would hate it

[jagged pelican]

espesaly sence its going to be a mentle pda and not a physical one

[pastel moth]

what would upgrading it unlock?

it's kind of a cool idea lol

[pulsar flume]

just like how nvidia drivers work

[frail mesa]

(can't think until PDA is updated)

[pastel moth]

oh like you install an update, your game crashes, then you uninstall it? /j

[jagged pelican]

how would you update it if you can't think cuz if you can't think you can't move

[frail mesa]

It'd be like a smart car, gotta update it before driving

[pulsar flume]

well no becauas pda os will work

[true nymph]

i hope we get more fish that are just normal fish

like the titan holefish as weird as it is is a really good example since it's basically just a mola

[grim coyote]

What is this: "Last Record Update
21 April 2026 – 00:02:17 UTC (35 minutes ago)"

For subnautica 2

[true nymph]

i joke about how i want tuna in the game but i genuinely hope there's some tuna adjacent fish

that's one thing i'm slightly worried about with the fish in subnautica because it feels like every fish needs to be super unique and have some gimic, but when every fish is special than none of them are

[pastel moth]

sn2 gets constant build updates, you can scroll through the history to see how frequent it is

[neon sapphire]

Is sn1 shut down

[pastel moth]

I kind of disagree, even just looking at the moon family...none of them seem to have any special gimics

[true nymph]

which does make me hopeful

[plucky relic]

what is this

[dark imp]

waterslug scared animation

[brittle cloak]

not to get political or anything but i like moon pools

[neon sapphire]

@pastel moth I’m asking because some dude in the #subnautica-chat channel is stuck on the photosensitivity warning screen

[dark imp]

I remember a bug like that

[grim coyote]

And why does "Subnautica 2 Playtest" which is less than a MB have an all time player count of 280 players, and is hidden from the steam store

[pulsar flume]

whys it quiet?

[dapper shore]

Nobody is sending voice messages

[rancid mirage]

because tonight's the night

[warm lion]

today is the day

[rancid mirage]

idk man its 3am over here

[dapper shore]

Tomorrow is the morrow

It’s 7 pm and the sun hasn’t buggered off yet

[rancid mirage]

dang dude do you live in the north pole

[slim sable]

THE DAY FOR WHAT?

[rancid mirage]

days

[dapper shore]

No it’s just darn tootin hot heat sweaty season

[slim sable]

Why are people saying tonights the night todays the day???

[rancid mirage]

sucky summer

[warm lion]

you'll see

[rancid mirage]

Dexter reference and some humor

[slim sable]

SEE WHAT

[dapper shore]

Summer F tier season, Spring is only higher because of generally better weather

[slim sable]

That makes more sense

[brittle cloak]

spring and fall are both S tier

[rancid mirage]

summer is carried by the vacation and travelling, otherwise horrible weather and horrible everything

[true nymph]

not spring because the allergies make everything miserable

[brittle cloak]

just stop having allergies

[dapper shore]

Spring brings allergies and I live in a place where it can be just as hot as summer time, after a rainy day too is miserable

[rancid mirage]

im not allergic to dawg so im good

[rancid mirage]

spring where im at is the peak of the year

[dapper shore]

It did very lightly snow a couple days ago

[rancid mirage]

[dapper shore]

You don’t need to have a severe allergy to experience allergies

[rancid mirage]

no I know, I've just never had any seasonal allergies before

[dapper shore]

Lucky

I think it’s worse in places with a lot of pollen and stuff

[neon sapphire]

Will there be beds in this game

[rancid mirage]

im not very educated there but I live in a very green area but Im not sure how it could be relative

[rancid mirage]

(you may not sleep now, there are monsters nearby)

[warm lion]

yes, but you cant pass the time in them

[dapper shore]

Are there a lot of bees/flowers around

[rancid mirage]

sort of

[neon sapphire]

Fih

[rancid mirage]

fig

[dapper shore]

Smited

[neon sapphire]

DAMMIT

[brisk pulsar]

Fih

[rancid mirage]

fih

[dapper shore]

Fij

[dapper shore]

The goat

Love blimp squid

[quiet cedar]

♫ ...I am Steve ♫

[brittle cloak]

cuttlefish

[warm lion]

new steve music video just dropped

[dapper shore]

So that fish is officially named Steve

[fervent aurora]

What the

The fish look so lively

[dark imp]

Halfmoons sure like Steve

[dapper shore]

Steve in the morning, Steve in the eve

Unfortunately a bar

[dark imp]

oh what a rhyme

[pliant aurora]

We really are spoiled here

[dapper shore]

Ya know, a bio mod that lets you dive out of the water like a dolphin would be pretty cool

[warm lion]

you can use the dash for that

[torpid tendon]

whats that in the background

[brittle cloak]

water

[dapper shore]

But does it evoke the same vibe as the scene from the zohan?

[dark imp]

an hourglass, nothing weird

[dapper shore]

That’s Steve’s house

[warm lion]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S06S9GT5LE this song actually slaps

can we get a steve waxmoon emote

[pastel moth]

it looks so good!

it's so cool how they follow steve around

[warm lion]

for sure it is awesome

[brittle cloak]

reminds me of a sunfish like the titan holefish

[dark imp]

They all want to be Steve, but there is only one that is him

[swift kraken]

Spoiling us today you are!

[pastel moth]

we can actually get a screenshot with the whole moon family

[acoustic ether]

Hey Cerbi in off topic can I put my new itch io game post about gamedev?

[dapper shore]

I wonder if we will be successful in our colonization mission

[brittle cloak]

wait, it's a moonfish isn't it

[warm lion]

the game looks so smooth in the video

[dapper shore]

They are all named after phases of the moon yeah

I wonder if there’s a leviathan version called bloodmoon

[rapid willow]

OMG SOO CUTE

[dapper shore]

Steve is the harvestmoon fish?

[pastel moth]

wax moon, the big one

[dapper shore]

Right that was my second guess

Harvest is the red one I think

[brittle cloak]

is there a waning moon?

[dapper shore]

If there is we haven’t been shown yet

[pastel moth]

not that we know of but I hope there's more moon family members

[dapper shore]

So far those are the only 4 we know of

[pliant aurora]

this is the hammerhead, right???
it took me like actually a solid 3 minutes to get any idea as to what this is, because I kept seeing a crumbled up reaper

[pastel moth]

yeah, my guess is hammerhead

[dapper shore]

Maybe it is an Easter egg and it actually is a crumbled up reaper you can toss around in your home

[wise karma]

from all the teasers shown so far the game looks really good, fingers crossed the performance is good too

[dapper shore]

The maximum specs look like it should perform on medium and medium low end systems pretty well

Only 3070 RTX is pretty good

[charred shore]

is this an image from subnautica 2?

[pliant aurora]

problem is, "good" is subjective.
didn't Obraxis talk about some plans for a performance sheet thingy? do you guys remember whether that had any sort of estimated schedule

[torpid tendon]

its from this

[pliant aurora]

so yes, it is, just not any of our copies of the game (we don't have ones)

[devout kite]

T h e p a i n

[dapper shore]

Yeah it’s a hammerhead

[pastel moth]

specifically the back of the hammerhead

[gilded osprey]

I hope my pc can run subnautica 2

[torpid tendon]

what are your specs

[gilded osprey]

Gonna be honest I have no clue

[torpid tendon]

check task manager

performance tab

[gilded osprey]

Aight gimmie a min

[dapper shore]

Go to your system settings and go to the about section

[warm lion]

Steve ❤️

[pliant aurora]

I wonder how new the clip is
it seems surprising that beacons wouldn't have a new model, but idk
is that even the same?

[warm lion]

same

[rapid willow]

Could Steve be a mother, because the other fish are swimming around her?

[dapper shore]

My laptop only has a 3050 Ti so I probably won’t be able to run it on there smoothly

[dapper shore]

Or a protector given its size

[rapid willow]

yep

[dapper shore]

Could also just be they’re named due to the different developmental stages in their lives

Or by sex

[pastel moth]

it does give me Discus vibes

mama protecting her babies

[pliant aurora]

I personally don't believe they are all one animal at different stages
also I assume we'll stay with the one sex thing of 4546b

[gilded osprey]

Yeah I can’t sadly

[brittle cloak]

very heavily inspired by sunfish from the real world and they do gather together while they're young for protection

[dapper shore]

Though all of their pupils being different implies they’re a species in the same family

[pliant aurora]

yeah the moons are moliforms, aren't they

something like that, very inspired by molamolas, anyway

what does this look like to you?

[dapper shore]

8 fish

[pastel moth]

nibbler? hard to tell

this area here kinda looks like it might be blocked off?

[dapper shore]

Situations like these make you wish all that enhance bs in those crime dramas was real

[pastel moth]

and honestly no clue what the hourglass shape is

[dapper shore]

Looks like either an entrance or random debris

[pastel moth]

it looks like it's just floating there

[dapper shore]

Could be a placeholder decal for an unfinished world space

[pliant aurora]

slightly different orientations
extremely hard to tell anything

[brittle cloak]

i'd guess it's a placeholder texture

[pliant aurora]

the hourglass looks like a piece of a bridge of sorts, lying with wreckage on a cliffside

bridge, as in bridge of a vessel, NOT bridging over a river

[warm lion]

open ocean

[pliant aurora]

OPEN open ocean

[dapper shore]

I think it’s a nibbler

[wise karma]

im assuming this is just titanium ( red circle and two red arrows in case you missed it)

[pastel moth]

yeah probably titanium lol

[pliant aurora]

this too, right? (sorry no arrows)

like, these are the same resource

[wise karma]

i think so

[dapper shore]

Rocks

[fervent aurora]

Yeah that’s titanium

[frail mesa]

Looks like a cross between titanium and lead

[pliant aurora]

copper?

[fervent aurora]

Or silver?

[stable knoll]

It looks sorta like quartz did.

[pliant aurora]

it looks more brown imo

[stable knoll]

Less spiky, but not quite as flat and round as the other deposits.

[pliant aurora]

no, there's quartz more clearly
at least what I think is quartz
hold on a sec I was getting to it

[stable knoll]

I'm sure it's not quartz, I'm just saying it looks similar.

Could be another type of gatherable we haven't seen yet?

[fervent aurora]

Silver was diamond shaped

[pliant aurora]

okay yeah actually similiar to the old one
but this is almost surely new quartz
there's a smaller one a bit later

[stable knoll]

The reason why I say that is because the outside is kinda laced around that dome-like shape in the center.

I'm not sure there was ever anything like that'

[dusk hazel]

Will it be on ps5?

[wise karma]

i dont think the early access will be, but the full game will

[dusk hazel]

Ok cool

[brittle cloak]

#subnautica-2-info

[stable knoll]

I do think I remember seeing something like this. I should go back and look at the other minerals there

[pliant aurora]

in the steve clip or the old games? that one is right at the start up top

[dusk hazel]

Oh well on ps6 then

[pliant aurora]

looks weirdly jagged and straight for quartz imo
diamond-like, if you will

[pliant aurora]

it's moreso about sony not doing EA stuff
my personal guess is full release will be on ps5, but that's speculation, and we'll just need to wait and see

[dusk hazel]

They say they expect early access going 2-3 years, till then we have ps6...

Maybe even 7

[pliant aurora]

oh? I haven't been following. Is ps6 already confirmed with some sort of timeframe for launch? no matter, I do think ps5 will get sn2 at some point, so I don't believe buying a new console would be a must.

[dusk hazel]

Major leaker said late 2027

[pliant aurora]

hmmm, I'm a bit concerned about the price, with what's going on with ram and ssds
here's hoping stuff will stabilize even a little in the following year or two

[dusk hazel]

Yeah I hope so too, wanted to get a pc but to expensive so I'm upgrading to ps5 pro 2tb this month

[pliant aurora]

oh nice

[ornate shoal]

Is there a date for release yet?

[pliant aurora]

nope, all we know is 2026, everything else is speculation

[dusk hazel]

Early Access Sometime in 2026

[pliant aurora]

but to speculate, with how much is happening (new weekly series, sn1 and bz sales and free trials), the release is likely sooner rather than later

[neon sapphire]

Will Jotaro be in Sn2

[pliant aurora]

sadly dolphins are extinct in the subnautica universe

[slim sable]

Does SN2 support FSR?

[dusk hazel]

Subnautica live action series would be fire

[warm lion]

so long and thanks for all the fish

[hollow aurora]

You guys think that there will be 4 episodes of dive into the legacy?

[warm lion]

🤷‍♂️

[neon sapphire]

Will Iggy be in S2

[pliant aurora]

sort of unclear?

I stole the pics of obraxis' messages directly from him

WRONG REPLY 😭

[dusk hazel]

I figured lol

[pliant aurora]

ahem ahem sort on unclear

[swift kraken]

Well that one message is from June 2025 and at that point I believe they were planning to drop the game in August 2025. Based on what Obraxis is saying it sounds like it made it in for EA now though

[neon sapphire]

Y’all know how people comment “first” on a new vid?

[pliant aurora]

(keep in mind, uly's messages are somewhat old atp)

[neon sapphire]

You can make them mad by saying firstest

[pliant aurora]

I sure do wonder what this is about lmao (/J I know what it is about)

[warm lion]

A hater in the chat earlier with the same name

[pliant aurora]

lol I just realized
"I'm not sure if frame gen will make it for ea1"
a few weeks later
"yes, there is frame gen"

[swift kraken]

Months of delay will help you add more stuff apparently lol

[pliant aurora]

so it seems

[signal drum]

There’s framegen app in steam, it works really good, I guess I’ll use it if there’s no framegen and my game is laggy

[proven maple]

Framegen is not something you should use if the game is already laggy

[fervent aurora]

what th ehell is frame gen anyways

[pliant aurora]

r/explainlikeimfive
ELI5: What is frame generation and how does it work?
"It increases FPS by basically making up frames. After it does all the hard work of actually rendering a real frame, it uses an AI model to guess what the next frame should look like and also pushes that to the screen. So the GPU might only be able render 30 real frames per second, but it also inserts a guessed frame in between each and you get 60 FPS.

So it all depends on how good that AI model is at guessing. Good guesses and you get high FPS basically for free. Bad guesses and it'll make the game look worse. It's generally pretty good from what I've heard though."

there are other replies that go more in-depth, that was just high up and short, and I don't want to post a massive wall here

[proven maple]

The issue is that lag in a SP game is nearly always frametime, which framegen will just make worse

[pliant aurora]

nvidias own news articles on dlss seems fine, but they are MUCH longer, though obviously much more detailed and official, too

[shrewd fjord]

Can update. Pretty sure DLSS is a yes for launch, sad to say FSR isn’t in yet.

As an AMD card-haver, I want FSR T_T hopefully soon tho

[pliant aurora]

well, there you go. thank you, uly

[shrewd fjord]

Opened up the chat and yours was right there. Weird timing

[pliant aurora]

this is, in fact, not the first time that has happened 😭

[shrewd fjord]

You received a threat from Seth, nice

[warm lion]

Do you think my 6800 xt is good for sn2?

[shrewd fjord]

Sadly idk. I used to use nVidia cards but then… gestures at world* things happened and I got my first AMD

so idk much about the lineage

[heavy latch]

When i look it up it says the release date is may, is that true?

[warm lion]

I haven't had a performance problem before in any other game so I hope it will be fine

[pliant aurora]

that's speculation and not confirmed

[brittle cloak]

early access possibly. full release, no

[shrewd fjord]

Hopefully! Tbh I don’t think our game breaks the bank. We’ve put in a lot of work optimizing, and will keep on optimizing it further

[sleek meadow]

What if at the very end of subnautica 2, the character we play as says "we are subnautica" and shoot a beam by using the power of friendship

[pliant aurora]

same energy

[void venture]

isnt this the thing on modern televisions that make movies look awful

[heavy latch]

Ive heard enough lets make a game together

[pliant aurora]

someone said something about televisions, yes
I'm not familiar enough with the tech to say more
(if I was, I wouldn't pull out reddit)

[void venture]

i've only ever heard negative thing about such technology, like DLSS controversy recently

[dapper shore]

Frame rates are also different for movies past a certain frame rate they look off

[void venture]

true most movies are 24(ish?) i read that somewhere so ai frames may feel different between games and movies

[pliant aurora]

yeah 24 is the universal standard for television afaik

[void venture]

will the game look good on my 1080p TV

[sleek meadow]

I feel like technology should steer away from using Ai and just make better graphics cards

[pliant aurora]

I remember when AI wasn't nearly as good at videos as it sadly is now, and people would use ai to artificially "enhance" (encrappify) animation and stuff

[dapper shore]

Graphics cards are expensive, frame generation helps for lower end devices

[void venture]

honestly generative ai being used for better video game fps is like one good application i can think of

[void venture]

it still happens (tiktok does it automatically) and it still looks awful

[brisk pulsar]

Ai is awful, end of convo

[pliant aurora]

it was extra bad for animation, because the models are supposed to be used on live footage

[fleet patrol]

agreed like dlss5 and stuff

[dull finch]

Not really

The only gpus using frame gen are expensive

[fleet patrol]

i dont like when expensive graphic cards rely on frame gen over genuine performance

[dull finch]

And frame generation still generates weird looking images

Foliage looks like a blob

[sleek meadow]

Yeah like 2k-3k for a 5090, only for it to mostly rely on dlss

[pliant aurora]

as much as I don't like things like chatgpt, I can't bring myself to just agree with "ai bad"
but also, I know I pretty much started this, but this is the sn2 channel. not ai debate channel... (hint hint #off-topic nudge nudge)

[void venture]

thats not the same thing, dlss5 alters the game's graphics entirely. frame generation is filling in gaps between frames

[sleek meadow]

Do you think crypto mining will be in sn2?

[dapper shore]

No

[fervent aurora]

crypto mining was in below zero

you drill a cryptosuchus with the prawn and you are rewarded with nothing but a drained battery

[warm lion]

in case any of you missed the new video

[drowsy moss]

STEVE!

[fervent aurora]

why are the halfmoons so beautiful
like the way they swim is just so smooth
and the glass-like bubbles
i need this game in my veins

[dull finch]

Steve may be a woman

[drowsy moss]

unreal is unreal

[dapper shore]

But 3 more times

[fervent aurora]

the fish are just so lively for some reason

except for steve, idk what he's doing

[dapper shore]

Steve is too big to be acting a fool

[warm lion]

chillin

[fervent aurora]

gotta love how the different color moonfish group together too

[torpid tendon]

i still wonder why they're diffirent colors

[honest breach]

Design or adaptation perspective?

[wise junco]

these are all "grouper fish"

But they come in a variety of colors

so too can our fish

[rustic gale]

i looked at the sub 2 fandom source code. i saw this thing called nibblershark and a graveyard biome.

[wise junco]

what "sourcecore" are you even talking about

sourcecode

[brittle cloak]

Red

oh sorry, i forgot about the ping

[wise junco]

i am pretty sure by source code you just mean screenshots of the editor

[rustic gale]

didn't mean to say source code. just the source of the fandom

[wise junco]

gotcha

[dire cape]

Subnautica 2 is made in the source engine

[wise junco]

well you get to see a lot internal names for stuff

and we're definitely not a source game lol

[dire cape]

Nah it’s a source game trust me bro, I’m like the lead dev (this is a absolute lie)

[proven maple]

I hope you guys use hilarious internal names more often. Maybe even some names that you know will make people leave streaks in their pants...

[sly fossil]

Do you think if I give Steve some snacks he'll give me the release date?

[honest breach]

You must first find a Steve to ask one

What does that mean, who is this frog? He doesn’t appear to be from the game?

[drifting crag]

I remember we got a bunch of creature names from that time they put more decorations on the website with file names on the images, they're in the most technical places

[pliant aurora]

I'm still elated by
"GenericItem"

[jaunty lion]

sup

[proven maple]

If you dont ping me I may not see the message... But that folder may have something to do with things like Generic parameters, classes and methods in C# (I know UE is C++)

[dapper shore]

Who is Gene Ricltem

[honest breach]

Move break three letters right

[sly fossil]

generic-item

[dapper shore]

That folder must contain the markiplier bobblehead

2

[sly fossil]

new video today at 17:00 cest?👀

[pliant aurora]

there should be one at whatever is in 11h30 from now

[honest breach]

For west Europe probably around then

[fervent aurora]

it'll release in 10h30
it releases at 11:00 where I am

wait nvm, i did the math wrong

[fossil iris]

How do y'all even know this? Is there one scheduled on their YT or something?

[fervent aurora]

11h30 is right

[fervent aurora]

ditl is a weekly series, and they've all released at the same time every week

[sly fossil]

They've been uploading one video every week at the same time

[pliant aurora]

it's an episode of a weekly series, and obraxis (producer and editor) confirmed it's every tuesday
the first 2 episodes were at 18:00 sharp, so I very much assume the 3rd (and later ones) are too

[fossil iris]

That'll do it, bahaha. Thanks y'all. 🙂

[pliant aurora]

actually, I checked and there's no credits, so I'm not sure of obraxis' roles on this, but he was producer/director/editor for the last series

[magic forum]

do we have an early access date yet?

[pliant aurora]

no. all we know is 2026, everything else is speculation

[honest breach]

No, check back in ≈ 12 hours

[magic forum]

okay cuz i been seeing tiktoks about it being early may

[honest breach]

The answer will probably still be no, but we will have more things to talk about

[magic forum]

everything ive seen so far i think is so peak

[pliant aurora]

unfortunately may is from an unnofficial leak, but talk specifically about that leak goes in #off-topic

[fossil iris]

I picked up Subnautica on the 15th, beat it on the 17th, and then knocked out Below Zero today. So I'm like... foaming at the mouth rn waiting for the next crumb of info. 🥴 Officially at the "combing through Dev Vlog stills for speculative info" phase

[torpid tendon]

obraxis and donya are the social media people (managers?)

[fervent aurora]

Donya is the social media person

Obraxis is the video person

I think

[pliant aurora]

something like that yeah, but they do a lot of video work
generally everything community afaik

[honest breach]

We will be given at least two weeks notice in the announcements tab before the game comes out, with up to 2 months notice being possible.

[pliant aurora]

like I think donya is more community and obraxis is more video, but there is significant overlap

[prime gale]

more things to talk about?
Are they releasing something? (sorry if i'm clueless)

[pliant aurora]

next episode of dive into the legacy
obraxis teased that there would be more sn2 footage

[drifting crag]

Is it that soon?

[pliant aurora]

and as for how we "know" it's coming

technically it could release at a different hour

[pliant aurora]

DitL is, yes

[prime gale]

oh this thing?

[true nymph]

is there gonna be third person

[drifting crag]

feels like the last dive into the legacy was yesterday to me

[fervent aurora]

it was a week ago
at this rate sn2 gonna come in no time

[pliant aurora]

this moreso

[prime gale]

i mean personally i think it'd be cool if it released during oceanfest but idk - no use getting my hopes up

[pliant aurora]

and this

[drifting crag]

Maybe I should have some concern for my perception of time, but at least if it keeps up the game will release in approximately 1-2 me days

[fervent aurora]

it'll feel like 1-2 'you' days
but only in hindsight, right now it feels like an eternity

[drifting crag]

It is unfortunately infinitely far away until it already happened

[pastel moth]

maybe the pre-announcement is in a DitL episode

[drifting crag]

What if the next one is the legacy of the person who decides their release dates

[pliant aurora]

oh how I want that to be true >_<

[fervent aurora]

obraxis jumpscare and he says "i've come ot make an announcement"
then the community becomes a feral mass

[pliant aurora]

I swear the devs have said SOMETHING about the ocean fest, but I can't find anything

[prime gale]

cerbi i'mma go ahead and screenshot your theory so that when you get proven right you can lord it over everyone :3

[pastel moth]

or maybe it's at the end of the episode when they show what the next one is

[drifting crag]

I would love to make a reference to sonic fandubs but every single word would need to be censored, so as follows
**** **** **** ****

[pastel moth]

It's a forwarded message from obraxis

[prime gale]

yes but you thinking it'll be in a DitL episode

[pastel moth]

oh 👍

[pliant aurora]

I'll be so mad if I was off by 2 days

actually no I wouldn't be mad because I'd see an announcement, but I'd be disappointed in myself

[pastel moth]

Next week on Dive into the Legacy ..
And it's a clip of the sn2 trailer

[pliant aurora]

please be right

[fervent aurora]

Except I'm not gonna crash on the gas giant. I'm gonna go higher. I'm crashing on the moon! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT, ALTERRA? I CRASHED ON THE MOON YOU IDIOT!

[fervent aurora]

maybe the previous ditl already had trailer footage?

[oak nova]

Brain hurt

[gilded osprey]

Are seeds technically eggs?

[supple saffron]

Or today they do the more boring series release and then at the end of it they tease that the EA realease trailer will be released on thursday

[fleet patrol]

i would sell my children for subnautica 2

[supple saffron]

No and yes

[untold valve]

Do I need the drill arm to mine for nickel?

I see what looks like nickel

[smoky hatch]

What are you referring to as the "more boring series"?

[untold valve]

I want a purple color too, give me

what role is that

[brisk pulsar]

dev

[untold valve]

oh, lmao

[quasi flame]

Ditl
(I find it quite interesting tho…)

[pliant aurora]

I think that they do a RELEASE OF the series that is more boring, meaning without a release date

not that the series is boring
that's how I read it

[quasi flame]

Your options are gray, or this soulless blue

[vagrant stratus]

when is the early access

[smoky hatch]

I assumed that, I'm always curious if people have actually watched it when they say that though or just go "eh not SN2"

[untold valve]

sad life

[smoky hatch]

We haven't given a more specific date than sometime this year yet

[exotic wind]

im so excited for it ngl

[untold valve]

Can we not get a red or yellow, or something less saturated than these colors

Ngl, I picked a good time for getting into these games. I played hollow knight, couple of months later, they released silksong (Which I still have to complete T_T), then Im playing this and apparent a few months later, subnautica 2 is coming

[quasi flame]

Well, you can get different colour, but you gotta do the job of that role then. Like wikikeepers.
But there’s also this slightly darker gray role that requires no job to do. The role is called „muted“

I wouldn’t suggest getting that role

[supple saffron]

I watched the first person and I PERSONALLY did not find it interesting. No hate though some people like what they like, I personally dont really

[pliant aurora]

wait there's a muted role?

[quasi flame]

Sanchu…

[cosmic crow]

The pantheons make me want to die. I need to finish them and I can finally be done with the game

[quasi flame]

You’ve been here far longer than me

4 years to be exact

[quasi flame]

You do know the first episode gave us sn2 sneak peeks, right?

[pliant aurora]

counterpoint
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[supple saffron]

Yeaaah but eh. I aint really watching and the more sneak peeks i usually ignore so I could experience the game with as little knowledge as I can

[untold valve]

Im struggling to get past khan

in sk, cant beat his freaking gauntlet

[cosmic crow]

I haven’t played Silksong yet

[untold valve]

oh, rip, minor spoiler

well, dont look him up and your fine

[cosmic crow]

It’s ok, his name is khan, it’s thematically clear he’s not friendly

[untold valve]

heh

[quasi flame]

Why are you in #subnautica-2-chat then?
This place is flooded with sneak peeks (or how devs call them „leaks“, even though they aren’t really leaks)

[untold valve]

oh wait, this subnautica 2 chat???

Im in the wrong chat too lmao

[cosmic crow]

No this is the Gordon Ramsay discussion channel

[pliant aurora]

I know there is an unusual abundance of sn2 talk, but yes

[supple saffron]

I love to theorize and most leaks I already have seen that are in this chat so like meh

[quasi flame]

Sn2 discussion often turn into space discussion that have nothing to do with the game

[quasi flame]

Eh, that’s fair

[supple saffron]

Or biology discussion

[cosmic crow]

Yeah you can talk about anything here except for the lawsuit. It’s pretty chill

[quasi flame]

As long as cerbi is sleeping. We don’t want the fun police around

/j

[pliant aurora]

or physics, chem, science in general, movies, games, AI is a big topic, basically everything ever

[warm lion]

subnautica 2

[quasi flame]

Everything other than sn2 😭

[warm lion]

SUBNAUTICA 2

[supple saffron]

Damn subnautica 2 has a lot of stuff in it that can lead to epic disscusions aint it

[quasi flame]

Stop screaming

[pliant aurora]

SAYS MISTER "oh I know how to bypass caps" HUH? WHO ARE YOU TO SAY

[supple saffron]

Im sorry what

[oak nova]

Gogurt

[quasi flame]

Alr that’s fair. Can’t even deny it

[pliant aurora]

in short

[smoky edge]

That's cap

[warm lion]

is it a lowercase to capital ratio you need to have?

[pliant aurora]

I have a feeling ""the fun police"" won't appreciate this discussion, BUT
I don't know? is it that, buvara? how much would the ratio be? 50:50? 25:75?
30:70?

[warm lion]

i mean i too would rather be talking about SUBNAUTICA 2

[pliant aurora]

fair
you saw orbaxis' new video, right?

[warm lion]

i even forwarded it

[pliant aurora]

I thought that was you, good

I feel like there was something I wanted to check in it, but got distracted and forgot

[warm lion]

maybe it was some far away fish in the background

or an unknown mineral

[pliant aurora]

we got a seemingly pretty exhaustive image of the minerals some time ago, but I'm not sure if it was given here or in a video
I hope it's not dc. much harder to find

[warm lion]

they showcase some in the first dev vlog

no it is the second

https://youtu.be/xyG963F4q-8?t=251

[pliant aurora]

well, I want this here either way

[strange spruce]

This is great and I appreciate it. Makes the game more life like.

[fervent aurora]

i love how they're actually using the irl rocks the materials come from

[pliant aurora]

I guess it was just from the vlog (though I actually stole this specific screenshot from this)

[bleak anvil]

Ben is very passionate about having a realistic base.

[pliant aurora]

I want to imagine that both seth and ben are just like that

[fervent aurora]

rutile/titanium looks dope as hell, it's my favorite

[bleak anvil]

I though "Just make it pretty" before I knew Ben.
But the process really makes sense. You can do alot of interesting stuff if the base is rooted in realism.

[pliant aurora]

also makes the job of people like seth easier, I imagine?

[fervent aurora]

Gemmabee was the one who said the pointy silver rock was argentite

So I went and actually found a photo that looked similar

[tropic mason]

HYPEEER

[warm lion]

When Subnautica 2 EA1 releases, I am going to play it.

[prime gale]

shock horror

[livid heath]

I just saw the last video from Obraxis, the fishes looks so cool 🔥

[compact jasper]

What? Where

[tame crane]

Do we know it’s gonna drop next month or is that a false rumour?

[prime gale]

well its a rumour - nothing more

[compact jasper]

False rumor

[pliant aurora]

we don't yet know if it's false, but it's unconfirmed

[compact jasper]

Steve 🤤

[tame crane]

Okay thanks 😁

[livid heath]

Today we should get 3rd video of their interview series, if it can help you waiting for the game.
Seems like an interview of modder(s), but not a mod I played unfortunately.

[pliant aurora]

I feel like it would have more than just RotA, but we'll see

[compact jasper]

There's call of the void and it's not even out yet

Hahaha

[pliant aurora]

I wanna try
vid dropping at <t:1776783600:t>
what time do you see?

[compact jasper]

5pm

[prime gale]

3 am 😭

[pliant aurora]

it works
this is so much easier

[prime gale]

how did you achieve this?

[pliant aurora]

I want to gatekeep so bad, but @time

[prime gale]

thx :D

[compact jasper]

Wowie

[prime gale]

also it releasing on wednesday the 22nd of april at 3 am for me

[compact jasper]

Stev

Also is that a discarded coral shell?

[warm lion]

i think it is just how they form

[compact jasper]

Oh, well that's practical

[west sparrow]

whats releasing?

[pliant aurora]

the next episode of the weekly Dive into the legacy series

[west sparrow]

nice

[pliant aurora]

that will have some sn2 spoilers

[west sparrow]

NICEE

[pliant aurora]

AND we've been theorizing if it could hint at or tell us something about the release date

[west sparrow]

nice?

[pliant aurora]

this, most of all

[pliant aurora]

very nice, if it does actually tell us the release date

[west sparrow]

when do ya guys think its realeasing

[civic birch]

when they are ready

[west sparrow]

i meant the date

like around may or june maybe?

[thin coyote]

does subnautica 2 take place in 4546b

[pearl marsh]

no

[pliant aurora]

I think it's sooner rather than later with how much stuff is happening
mainly the weekly series and the sales, and the previous audiodrama series ended nicely recently
I'm thinking may-june

damn

[pliant aurora]

anyway
no
we were on a ship, going to the desert oasis planet zezura, then something happened and our ship AI took us to a random moon we crashed on

[low zealot]

I am Steve is such a banger song 😭

[west sparrow]

HMMMM

ship, something happend to it?

ive been warned for spamming caps

[pliant aurora]

my own theory is that it was hacked, but there's VERY little backing that up
look up the voices from beyond series on the sn youtube channel
it's something like 15 minutes total, divided into 5 episodes

[west sparrow]

the voices

the voices are getting louder

[west sparrow]

dude thats literally the plot of sn1 (well kind of)

[torpid spear]

I reckon its because our characters were looking for a burger and got stranded on the moon body

[devout kite]

Subnauticca if 4546B was the opposite of what it is

[pliant aurora]

well, there's only so many ways to end up on a planet lol

[devout kite]

A desert instead of an ocean

[pliant aurora]

or moon or other celestial body

[west sparrow]

why would you want a desert its all sand

[low zealot]

Aurora had to visit a planet on the way to their destination, but crashed there

[west sparrow]

kind of the same plot no?

these devs need to be more creative bro

[low zealot]

Not really. Other than the crashing, there isn't anything in common

[sharp wind]

oh boy I can't wait to play subnautica 2 when it comes out within the upcoming calendar* year

[west sparrow]

i will be broke if i buy subnautica 2

[sharp wind]

me too but idc

[west sparrow]

how much would it be?

[smoky hatch]

You can't know that, we haven't released a price yet 😄

[pliant aurora]

this is kinda again the "artemis going to the moon" argument that happened here, but
was aurora really "visiting" 4645b? it was doing an orbital maneouver and was shot down, it just had to be the general vicinity, but what is "visiting" when it wasn't landing?
idk this is pretty much just useless semantics

[west sparrow]

pleaseeeeeee tell me

i need to know if i will be financialy broke

[sharp wind]

Probably around 50-80 usd, it's a pretty popular and large (data and storage usage wise) game so it'd be an average-ish price for games (this is all speculation)

[torpid spear]

Price it at $140 :)

[west sparrow]

i hope its below 100 gb

[sharp wind]

what if I don't have any money to spend? then i'd be broke if it was any price

[raw vault]

it's like 30 or something right now

[iron merlin]

Id be very surprised if it was above $50

[pliant aurora]

it is currently estimated to be around 50gb on steam, but this SHOULD include room to grow

[compact jasper]

Hiii

[pliant aurora]

also remember to turn off the ping when replying to devs
discord turns this on every single time

[raw vault]

50gb includes (estimated) future updates and save files. it was said around a week or so ago that it was sitting at 25 or 30 gb

[west sparrow]

oh HELL naw bro please i need storage

how do i get more storage

[compact jasper]

Ssdee

[torpid spear]

getmorestorage.com

[pearl marsh]

download more storage

[sharp wind]

aurora was investigating planet 4546B because the degasi crew went missing without a trace, they got shot down by the cannon then that's where the game starts, so they weren't "visiting" but moreso "spying and/or investigating"

[compact jasper]

Never seen a more PR username lol

[sharp wind]

oh shoot

sorry all the devs I've accidentally pinged

[dreamy agate]

You should include the amount of storage Unreal needs

[west sparrow]

what now

[compact jasper]

Like

[sharp wind]

sd card

the thing that you store extra data on

[west sparrow]

im on a damn laptop what do you want me to do 😭

[compact jasper]

I have a 2tb ssd from Samsung for my pc.

[compact jasper]

You can change that on laptops

[sharp wind]

insert a micro sd into your laptop

[smoky hatch]

None? You don't have to download unreal engine to play the game

[west sparrow]

how much usd

[raw vault]

tsk tsk silly calamity3

[pliant aurora]

if your laptop doesn't have 50gb to spare, I'm scared of your specs 😭

[compact jasper]

Ssds can vary wildly in prices

[torpid spear]

Or even an external one

[sharp wind]

for a micro sd card?

[smoky hatch]

I think we've gone pretty offtopic here 😄

[dreamy agate]

Thanks

[west sparrow]

i have 4080 geforce rtx

[compact jasper]

Yeah sorry

[pulsar beacon]

this message harms me physically

[west sparrow]

oops

[iron merlin]

Have you tried uninstalling games or programs you don't use?

[compact jasper]

Just in case you wanna make subnautica 3

[pliant aurora]

old steve

[sharp wind]

why is it so uncanny

[torpid tendon]

this is the video that started it all

[bright skiff]

Here is your daily dose of Steve

[compact jasper]

Eye

[pliant aurora]

bu- but we got that already

[torpid tendon]

hello???

[compact jasper]

I'm going to crash out

[sharp wind]

it is so prey-like, It has ZERO front facing vision

[pulsar beacon]

isnt unreal fairly light?
pretty sure a single asset would take more then unreal

[west sparrow]

i uninstalled hoyo play and i have like 140 gb now

[pearl marsh]

what kind of files that you need a 50tb storage

[west sparrow]

guys lets go to off-topic shall we?

[civic birch]

hi

[compact jasper]

Yeah 😂

[iron merlin]

Then you're good for SN2 haha

[torpid spear]

Dude has himself a NAS bruh

[sharp wind]

so unsmart

[pliant aurora]

the audacity to name the 10 TERABYTE disk "10gb"

[pulsar beacon]

oh actually unreal is NOT like other boys
the beast should be casted back into the hole

[pliant aurora]

the real daily dose of steve

[sharp wind]

I really want to spam caps but I'm not allowed to so imagine this is in full caps
how much stuff do you have in that top folder???

[civic birch]

when you have a family of gamers its sort of necessary

[torpid spear]

I respect it honestly

[west sparrow]

how much is a micro sd card in usd or euro

[pulsar beacon]

there is no world where you need a 100TB drive

[sharp wind]

yeah they downloaded it

[torpid spear]

Unless you are someone who does need it for work and etc

[bright skiff]

That sounds like a you problem

[torpid tendon]

this greoigde or whatever is sucking onto the coral

[pulsar beacon]

downloading storage so you can download more storage

[sharp wind]

yeah!

[bright skiff]

Peak.................

[sharp wind]

i think I have negative braincells

[civic birch]

its the family gaming drive so prob 4 different steam libraries worth of games plus my kids like to play COD so there is that

[sharp wind]

:D

[sharp wind]

OH that's is so much

why did I write that's is

[crystal oak]

what happened to daily dose of steve?

[bright skiff]

Idk who it was who asked for another steve but here you are

[torpid spear]

Good on ya

[west sparrow]

so quite

where did everyone go

[smoky hatch]

You don't have to have a message in every channel in every discord every 30 seconds 😄

[warm lion]

I look at the chat often

[raw vault]

we can always want it though

[warm lion]

sometimes i post a screenshot just to boost subnautica 2 talk

[bright skiff]

I have steve for that

[torpid tendon]

this chat is gonna be very active tommorow

[pliant aurora]

uhhhhhh new subnautica 2 content at probably <t:1776783600:t>

[warm lion]

it says 8am for me

[west sparrow]

when would you say subnautica 2 is releasing

[bright skiff]

When it's READY

[west sparrow]

i promise i wont tell everyone

[civic birch]

on a certain day at a certain time within a certain year

[warm lion]

tadpole

[pliant aurora]

and that year is 2026

[west sparrow]

on the steam page it says its gonna be in 2025

[bright skiff]

When do we reckon the game takes place

[pliant aurora]

I mean I won't stop you from wishing it comes out in 2025, but, like

[bright skiff]

Gotta be 2222 surely

[pliant aurora]

somewhere around 2200

[smoky hatch]

Me? Never

[civic birch]

guy cant wait for 2025 it seems

[smoky hatch]

well, once it's been announced I can repeat it

I'm not going to be the one announcing the release date though

[wise junco]

everytime someone asks im delaying it another five minutes

[quasi flame]

We’re in 2028 by now

[civic birch]

well at that rate we are up to 2030 by now lol

[bright skiff]

Welp we can expect to wait a few more years then

[pliant aurora]

sn1 was 2181, bz was 2183, and ns1/2 somewhere in the 2190's
assuming the pioneer program was started around the same time as natural selection happened, and assuming we got lost around halfway into the trip, that puts us pretty close to 2200

[stiff coral]

It feels like such a small time jump for the amount of technological advancements we've seen

[dull finch]

What if I ask in reverse

[warm lion]

people were printed in natural selection right?

[dull finch]

Like where is it coming out

[bright skiff]

Yes well Seth said the NS games "take us up to the turn of the century"

[sly raptor]

out coming 2 subnautica is when

[bright skiff]

So it's like late 2190s - early 2200s

[pliant aurora]

that's a good question, actually
there's STRONG incentive to come up with the tech tbf

[bright skiff]

When it's READY

[wise junco]

what tech advancements have you seen that seem out of whack from Sn1

[civic birch]

Architect tech, reverse engineering, and of course humanity seems to thrive in a crisis

[wise junco]

a game where you could magically print things with lasers

[dull finch]

Air fryers

[quasi flame]

I guess hatches could be one of those things 🤷‍♂️

[stiff coral]

The reprinter is just something that shouldn't exist

[civic birch]

I always figured it was a nano printer

[wise junco]

as opposed to the hatches taht didn't have a secondary hatch and didnt let water in

why is the reprinter something that shouldnt exist

[smoky hatch]

I love how you say that as if that's not just tech words for "it's magic" 😄

[quasi flame]

Minor typo

[dull finch]

I always thought the printers were just... Fabricators

[azure basin]

3d printing people

[west sparrow]

Hey Sam, what do you think about RoTA (Return of the ancients) mod?

[stiff coral]

There's a certain point where humans should look at what they're doing, and thing "why are we copying people?"

[smoky hatch]

I don't know anything about it, I think mods are cool and great but I tend not to use mods myself (minecraft excluded)

[wise junco]

because it's cheaper than training a replacement

[pliant aurora]

"when" has been said 34000 times in this chat this year
if every "when" moved it five minutes, it'd "only" be delayed about 4 months, actually

[civic birch]

Magic is just stuff we dont understand right lol

[pearl marsh]

cost

[west sparrow]

Do anyone else in the staff play subnautica with mods or atleast know about RoTA?

[smoky hatch]

I feel like that's the most realistic part 😄

[wise junco]

is chat full of people who were like "nah avatar is so bad because somehow they inject their consciousness into biolgoical bodies." At some point you just let go a little bit

[dull finch]

Why not reprint
That's still a person regardless

[sour patio]

this is such an interesting phenomenon because i hate content and game altering mods, unless its mc or terraria

[dull finch]

If you can let a person come back why not

[smoky hatch]

I would assume so

[civic birch]

Lol i mean i would assume a robotic body would be better but im not against uploading a conscious mind into a new body at all

[quasi flame]

Sanchu…
You know people use „when“ in context other than the release date, right?

[dull finch]

Robotic bodies often have like
The issue of disassociation

[west sparrow]

Thats nice, but would you ever play with the RoTA mod because its really great, i would recommend trying it

it not like an overpowered mod or anything, but has the gargantuan leviathan

[dull finch]

Even irl that's an issue
People dissociate extremely easy and often end up harming themselves, even in media this is the case

[pliant aurora]

yeah, but like, I'm not going to go through years of messages counting ones that specifically ask abt the release 😭

[quasi flame]

Make sure to turn off ping on reply when replying to devs

[civic birch]

thats not proven though i would imagine you would have the same problem being placed in a new body at all

[west sparrow]

i forgot sorry

[dull finch]

The new body is organic? And a reprint of your old one

[smoky hatch]

Personally I find the gargantuan leviathan the most overhyped thing. People are constantly mentioning it and it's just big not much else

[dull finch]

You'd lack touch, smell, taste

[dull finch]

This is the most valid take you've had

[smoky hatch]

I think we can do things way more interesting than just taking a model and putting the scale to 100x 😄

[west sparrow]

oh, well then thanks, but its still very cool that devs are replying to people and your entire team works with passion

[pliant aurora]

I could also do "when subnautica 2" which gives us 635 results, or 2 days, which seems terribly little
(and doesn't account for typos I think, although the dc search is generally pretty good at detecting similiar words and even other tenses of words)

[sleek pasture]

I heard someone say May 2026, but you know... it wont, he's lying

[west sparrow]

thats a rumour

[civic birch]

true but these are things that only work if you are put in an exact replica of your own body at the time of death

[quasi flame]

Bro hasn’t met Seth yet (respectfully)

[dull finch]

What

[west sparrow]

who is seth?

[bright skiff]

Well it could, but that's not confirmed or official

[dull finch]

A squid

[bright skiff]

(the writer)

[west sparrow]

what

whaaaaat?

[quasi flame]

You’ll know once you see him

[dull finch]

He's a squid in a trenchcoat

[west sparrow]

what dou you MEAN?

[pliant aurora]

yeah, if your new body is even slightly different, the connections in your brain wouldn't line up correctly
you wouldn't have memories, motor skills, senses...

or all are possible side effects, rather

[civic birch]

if your consciousness is placed in anything other then your own body as you remember it you will be forced with dissociation your own body goes through changes taste, height, feel, hearing; so unless you are placed in an exact replica of yourself from the time of death dissociation is a real threat

[dull finch]

Right but it is your own body

Just reprinted

[pliant aurora]

IF it's exactly the same, yes
but that's a theoretical world where no mistakes happen ever AND perfect accuracy is always possible'

[west sparrow]

i had some cookies today 😄

[civic birch]

yes but reprinted from what is it a current replica or a stored pattern

[bright skiff]

I wonder how Future Perfect will end up factoring into things

Obraxis said it would be relevant somehow

[west sparrow]

#off-topic

[bright skiff]

Not really

[west sparrow]

how

[bright skiff]

.

And besides, it's another UWE game, so it's as on topic as something like Natural Selection

[compact jasper]

Just... a few more hours...

[last grotto]

Until what?

[stiff rivet]

roughly 7 and a half assuming donya hits it at the exact same time again

[compact jasper]

Until it happens

[last grotto]

What happens?

[stiff rivet]

judgement

[compact jasper]

The moment all the lurkers and larpers invade this channel and complain about the release date...

[pliant aurora]

the new episode of dive into the legacy releases probably at <t:1776783600:t>
we're hoping it has something about the release date announcement, but we know it will have some sn2 content

[stiff rivet]

prepare thyself

[compact jasper]

The natural order of things...

[last grotto]

Thank you.

[bright skiff]

you’re gonna have a bad time.

[torpid tendon]

first time i've heard the word larp in this channel

[compact jasper]

I think that was a minos prime reference

[bright skiff]

Was it?

[compact jasper]

Yeah I love using buzzwords I'm so Instagram pilled

[pliant aurora]

tbf it's only been said a bit over 100 times in the server
110 to be precise

[compact jasper]

I meeaaannn....

[pliant aurora]

and a lot of those actually meant live action role playing in the ren/medfair context

[compact jasper]

Things change...

[west sparrow]

[pliant aurora]

they do, don't they

[quasi flame]

And I get my #off-topic gif perms 🥳

[compact jasper]

I wonder what word will be completely transformed next

[bright skiff]

He knows

[west sparrow]

?

[compact jasper]

He knows

[west sparrow]

help

[compact jasper]

[west sparrow]

ooohhh i get it

[supple saffron]

A new episode releases of the ongoing series and people will complain it isnt an EA release date trailer

[bright skiff]

Real

[pliant aurora]

the hell's this mean?

[bright skiff]

What's funny is you're almost definitely right

[supple saffron]

My guess release trailer gona be on thursday

[west sparrow]

[stiff rivet]

the joke is that there most likely won’t be any major announcement about early access just as buvara most likely won’t get gif perms in #off-topic

[pliant aurora]

OH

[quasi flame]

I made a bet with Matt. It’s „get banned“ or „get gif perms“. The outcome depends on whether ditl releases today or not

[pliant aurora]

oh

today.. where?

[stiff rivet]

matt’s gonna tell donya to hold it back a day fr

[supple saffron]

In announcments

[pliant aurora]

no but like yknow how timezones exist?
ditl might release tomorrow for some

ditl is such a fun word to say
reminds me of tittle

[pulsar beacon]

the timezones are what makes it a risky bet

[supple saffron]

In lile 5 or 6 hours

[torpid tendon]

about in 7 hours and 10 minutes

[pliant aurora]

I wonder
<t:1776783600:R>

[torpid tendon]

yup

[pliant aurora]

nah I prefer <t:1776783600:t>

[torpid tendon]

yeah

[sharp wind]

why is everyone talking about many different times

[torpid tendon]

timezones

[sharp wind]

what is ditl

nvm figured it out

[pulsar beacon]

enlightenment within a few seconds

[west sparrow]

yoooo guys whaat

[sharp wind]

enlightenment usually occurs within a few seconds if it is a simple topic such as video games, true enlightenment is harder

[torpid tendon]

real

[fluid cipher]

Still waitinf

[pulsar beacon]

was pretty easy for me dunno why you struggle with it

[fluid cipher]

Don't do like Netflix subnautica

[pulsar beacon]

did you max out the compression on the editing software?

[compact jasper]

Really this optimistic huh

[pliant aurora]

deltarune tomorrow

[sharp wind]

I'm autistic

[compact jasper]

Loool

[compact jasper]

My condolencers

[supple saffron]

We need it

[sharp wind]

I also have dementia /j

[west sparrow]

NOOOOO they changed it 🙁

[compact jasper]

😂 wombo combo

[pulsar beacon]

a real womp womp combo if you will

[pliant aurora]

steve of being on topic

[torpid tendon]

steeeve

[compact jasper]

Sbeve

[pulsar beacon]

how rare will steve be?

[compact jasper]

Steve is the gasopod of sn2 👁👁

[torpid tendon]

probably not that rare

[sharp wind]

is steve his real name?

[compact jasper]

I wish

[pliant aurora]

I'd imagine pretty common
I think gasopods are a good comparison

[pulsar beacon]

why is the compression still so bad

[stiff rivet]

ok so it’s like completely official now without a doubt

[torpid tendon]

what is

[pliant aurora]

steve

[stiff rivet]

that the waxmoon has been dubbed steve

[torpid tendon]

sounds about right

[sharp wind]

you need to change the underwater tag to desert and see how long it would take someone to notice

[pulsar beacon]

Land tag would be more suitable

[sharp wind]

hello kitty tag instead of horror

[compact jasper]

Horror

[pulsar beacon]

also cant we like control those tags?

[sharp wind]

yes that is it

[stiff rivet]

yes

[pulsar beacon]

we could mark SN2 as a land game

[compact jasper]

[gray lantern]

:3

[pulsar beacon]

bro what are these tags

[pliant aurora]

there was a... questionable... tag a few weeks ago
I can't say it here, but it's "archived" on steamdb's changelist

[stiff rivet]

we should put dating sim en masse

[compact jasper]

😂

Date everything : subnautica edition

[abstract frost]

Psychological horror 💀

[pliant aurora]

dating would probably be a part of it yes
or dating would come before it for many

[sharp wind]

all of them other than choices matter, casual (for some places), and open world are correct (you can't go deep without going to certain places first)

[pulsar beacon]

even openworld is correct
because openworld just means you can go anywhere and the plot doesnt restrict you

[compact jasper]

Body horror (biomods)

Lol reminds me of the substance

[abstract frost]

Every open world game has boundaries tho

[sharp wind]

ok I'll change it

[compact jasper]

The boundaries are how much damage you can tank

[pliant aurora]

how does no mans sky world gen work, does that have boundaries
(though I think its an exceptio probat regulam either way)

[pulsar beacon]

no mans sky is really a rare case of a game with no boundaries
outside of like space stations

[stiff rivet]

the boundary is the duration of time your computer will last

[sharp wind]

probably pretty far out yes, but not close enough for it to interfere with normal playing

unlike the ecological dead zones

[last grotto]

NMS does have boundaries, but they are exceedingly far away and consist not of a literal boundary, but just of a lack of systems to warp to. Also this is heavily #off-topic

[pliant aurora]

#off-topic message

[warm lion]

what is that strange place

[abstract frost]

It's where the weird kids hang out

[supple saffron]

We the cool kids here

Offtopic is the boring ones

[pulsar beacon]

every other channel is pretty dead compared to this channel id say

[supple saffron]

For good reason

Well not good reason but understantable reason

[pulsar beacon]

good reason vs evil reason

[stiff rivet]

I'm the evil reason

[warm lion]

I'm the good reason

[compact jasper]

The evil resident of the sub nautica two

[compact jasper]

I'm the one that tells liiiieesss

[bright skiff]

Lmao

[west sparrow]

hmmm what could possibly be wrong?? hmmm

[stiff rivet]

I can't count that high

not enough fingers

[west sparrow]

you dont see it do you?

[prime gale]

is futuristic on there?

[sour patio]

which one

[scarlet agate]

earlier than gta6

[stiff rivet]

ah yes desert

trailing whitespace

who added that space there

[supple saffron]

They arr just meessing with us in plain sight

[bright skiff]

We're getting The Great Expansion before SN2 😔

[west sparrow]

no one sees it

[stiff rivet]

that sounds like a torture method

[exotic wind]

its 2026 where sn2?

[bright skiff]

Can't believe we'll need to leave Earth before we get to play

[west sparrow]

its in 2126

[supple saffron]

The 2126 date?

[exotic wind]

ah

[west sparrow]

nar

[prime gale]

futuristic? it doesn't say that on my steam

[west sparrow]

its actually futuristic

[prime gale]

:3 yay

[stiff rivet]

it also doesn't say desert

[west sparrow]

YESS WELL DONE

[bright skiff]

Future Perfect reference

[stiff rivet]

they added a space to the end of desert

[west sparrow]

or does it 🤫

[prime gale]

yeah yeah yeah
