subnautica-2-chat

[limpid hornet]

There will always be someone having some issue with the game, and the devs can't always just give everyone what they want.
We'll see what the devs do about this situation but it's not unreasonable to tell someone to install mod if they want something that the mod does.

[dim wharf]

no realistic tongue licking 👎 0/10 game

[stark jetty]

Fair enough. Do you mean yes to both, or more one side than the other?

[raven gull]

100% I don’t want the main playstyle to be to kill and hunt fish. I don’t think there should be a reward for it. Hiding, out maneuvering, etc. should be the default playstyle but coming up with your own little challenges in subsequent plauthroughs is fun. Giving players options is fun.

[sinful dock]

ok children you're fighting with people you dont know for meaningless reasons on a kids game discord

[weary quiver]

would it be possible to mod in a different character model, if so I will be turning my character into a shark furry

[hidden vault]

I dont got talassofobia
uninstalling 👍

[bold raven]

Nope, well probably can in the future. But when you just cross the line it mentions that the area can't be built in

[woeful sparrow]

I think in this case its particularly sour because its not a "new addition" like mods are its basically patching in something that was in the first 2 entries in the series.

[terse sinew]

Thats how i lost it, went to scan thermal plant, on that note managed to repair and get it back got lucky the big liviathan didnt come and only thr small came

[balmy leaf]

what do i need to do to open the locked door at tadpole pens

[fleet jacinth]

baby’s first conversation

[exotic crypt]

In the case of killing, a mod is the solution
The devs have been very vocal about the fact that being able to kill everything doesn't fit with their vision for the game

[wraith crag]

Hey anyone know where the ||singular and double roof vent|| blueprint is located?

[quasi mist]

I just want eggs and a tank

[amber turtle]

anybody know the cvar to reset/respawn all creatures ... my deepwing brooder is 2 million meters below the map lol

[toxic blaze]

Rip bozo

[cold sage]

i somehow can‘t find the last repair tool fragment, does anyone know where?
ive searched ||the tadpole pens, the welcome center, Camp One, that huge wreck thats guarded by a marrowbone and the habitat near the power plant|| where else can i look? i really don‘t know anymore

[exotic citrus]

it isn't a "problem" it's just something they changed between the games 💔

I agree there should be more ways to defend yourself but complaining about it on literally the first ever release isn't gonna solve anything.

also @outer rampart 5 of them spawn but they aren't all in the main pool. try looking around it more.

[steady delta]

brup

[silk meteor]

this applies for every single game? its not like sn2 is the only one who does it lol

[limpid hornet]

Either way the devs aren't going to update the game anytime in the next few days at the very least to address this in any way most likely so why not install the mod if you want

[candid leaf]

I do hope we atleast get some small updates in june

[blazing canopy]

🥚 + ?

[autumn escarp]

look inside the wrecks and abandoned bases in caves

[ruby island]

Hey anyone know a way to set separate sensitivities for roaming out and in the vehicle? I'm on mouse and keyboard and I have to switch my dpi every time I get in the vehicle to make it possible to look around normally.

[smoky cosmos]

"What do you mean the game thats in early access and hasn't been out for even a week has behavioral bugs and issues with fish being hyper aggressive or not being properly deterred or distracted. The devs must just hate me now I must make it everyone else problem by not dropping it even after making my opinion known repeatedly"

[dull finch]

Flip him over

[bold flame]

I personally think combat is secondary, i wish they didn't lean so heavily in the printing humans si-fi DNA stuff. The DNA is cool but it gets rid of that sub 1 simplistic nature of you crash and survive. Other then that, great game over all.

[weary quiver]

?

[eager silo]

holy essay

[woeful sparrow]

Its more so that i dont want to kill fish personally i just think its a really bad design choice from the devs that harms the games immersion

[gaunt bluff]

who else hyped for early access 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[harsh veldt]

There are much much more than 3 places with repair tool, || including some of the underwater "biolabs"|| that you can find with a scanner "room"

[crimson kindle]

Is that an avatar Easter egg?

[fleet jacinth]

‘complaining’ about it is the point though we amount to QA here and should be expected to talk about what we like and what we don’t like about the game thats what early access is meant to be

sorry to everyone else who replied i want to get to yours too but slowmode is miserable

[weary matrix]

[junior pivot]

What i mean yes to both , i think gamers shouldn’t have their intelligence lowballed or their capability of giving valid feedback questioned . And i also think that it’s the duty of the developers to actually try to understand what people want

[brittle grotto]

@pine granite This is one of the most toxic messages I've seen 🥇

[exotic crypt]

I honestly do hope we're able to tame or domesticate certain creatures to help you

[teal locust]

Exactly, and i wasnt one that went around just killing fish sn1 and this decision still irks me as well

[winter zenith]

I think a bit of both honestly. I’m not under the expectation that all players for an EA should be able (or expected to) give overly detailed and knowledgeable feedback because this is an EA that is available for everyone with the right platform/equipment. But I also think there is a level of respect and tact that players should have if they’re going to take on that responsibility. I expect devs to also be respectful and patient if they’re gonna open up their game for EA and feedback, but I also understand that not every critique is going to be taken to heart. Which I don’t think a lot of people understand. It’s a complicated process that not all players understand and the lack of patience on their part toward a game that is explicitly early access and incomplete is a bit ridiculous.
Basically, my issue isn’t players not being able to give detailed feedback or communicate it well, it’s when they’re being rude and disrespectful toward devs who are being chill

[naive grove]

Did someone already report the rock that you can phase through in the volcanic cave lol

[worldly pivot]

dude early access is out 😭

[vital sorrel]

i cant progress bc i have no trolinite

[wraith crag]

I just got a college essay by asking where a blueprint was lol

[rain flower]

No killing, please.

[swift basin]

Its up to the devs to ignore gamers rather than pander, if it sticks to the original vision.

[fading surge]

why are people complaining that theres no way to defend yourself, like do they not know you can hit them with the multi tool or sonic resonator and not the mention the item literally titled DISTRACTION FLARE

[candid leaf]

Hahahaha i was about to ask, who send da book in here

[torn perch]

It DOESN'T work.

[simple sail]

They deagro for like 2 seconds and come back charging you lmao

[forest oxide]

once again, more leaked stuff

[open light]

Someone explain how I have 4.71/1 Titanium

[weak stone]

r these islands in the background 3d models or images

[potent ember]

Just offer different options for different audiences.
Restricting to only one type is bad.

[steel dawn]

Hey can anyone help me with this bug? So basically at the end of the game where you activate the alien thermal plant you need to clear the viral blooms but i cleared the two juveniles and I can't clear the adult one located under the thermal plant even though i have destroyed every other viral bloom in the map. This bug is making it impossible to beat the game. Somebody please help me fix this.

[tranquil garnet]

Sounds good, work only 2 times out of 10. Any more bright ideas?

[wet robin]

we know one biome has to be the base of the tree, another should also be what is called ||The Great Trench||

[dim wharf]

everytime i read more of this chat i lose braincells

[woeful sparrow]

You really really need to understand like atleast 50% of the people complaining about killing isnt about them feeling defenceless its about the game not being immersive. and mainly that less player agency is bad

[weary matrix]

Are we playing a sea ​​simulator or survival?

[fleet jacinth]

wow this would sure be awesome if they reacted to being hit with the cannon in any meaningful way other than swimming off for 2 seconds and then attacking you again

the devs themselves have acknowledged this being an issue which they’re working on you don’t have to sit here and defend it

[hidden vault]

Thats an horrible item. I prefer something like a fishing net or smth

[proven tendon]

just ignore trolls

[exotic citrus]

fair enough.

still though, it's not the end of the world if you can't kill absolutely everything.

I do definitely think we should be able to kill the smaller hostile creatures (no leviathans though, even though it would be cool, they are designed to be a threat.)

[quaint bough]

im so sick of this constructed area obstructed bs

[daring tinsel]

You are free to make angry tweets or reddit posts about me, maybe if i eventually make myself an account on these echo chambers i might even read it

And yes, a game you sell is a product, with all that comes along with it - you can express yourself in it as you please but dont be mad when people disagree with it

[vital sorrel]

i cant progress bc i have no trolinite

[crimson kindle]

Why can't I kill the leviathans that's unrealistic and borderline woke ||/j||

[subtle perch]

Whos a marine biologist playing Subnautica how is it

[crude blaze]

when is the next update BTW?

[desert bobcat]

Text is too long. apparently a maximum of 5,000 characters...

I might need to seperate my feedback sheet....

[vital tusk]

Would you be able to send me a video or screenshot of some of the places? one of mine just won't scan

[brittle grotto]

More blood is needed

[random hinge]

i found a softlock that unstuck cant get you out of, if you somehow clip a tadpole into a noa terminal and get in the tadpole, you cant exit it and unstuck does nothing

[eager silo]

the main issue is that players have this expectation that if they shout loud enough the developers are obligated to bend to what they want because 'they paid for the game' or 'we gave detailed specific feedback.' They're the ones making the game. you don't complain to the pizza chef that he didn't make you a burger. if you have notes about his pizza's quality that's one thing, but ultimately he wants to make a pizza.

[radiant grail]

That's why the devs should increase the timer when they get de-aggro'd, adding an ability to kill fish will not fix the original issue with overaggressive threats

[bold flame]

I agree, we shouldn't focus on killing but we should atleast have the option for it like in sub 1. Hopfully 1.0 will do it

[runic arrow]

why is this game so bad when playing from the pc xbox app gng

[junior pivot]

Self defense aside , you shouldn’t force people to play a game in a specific way . Just give people the ability to kill , it doesn’t have to be applicable to leviathans either. Just make the game like Subnautica at the bare minimum

[teal locust]

Shhh they havent come across the twin sitaray yet

[tough stone]

Players are haveing too much fun with the new building your base the way you want

[stark jetty]

I agree with that last point a lot. I do think there’s a difference between poorly communicated feedback and outright hostility. Not everyone is going to explain things perfectly, especially in gaming communities, but basic respect and patience still matter if the goal is actually improving the game instead of just venting.

[gloomy crescent]

I can’t wait for the new update and the new sub we’re gonna be getting and the “trench” we’re supposed to be crossing gonna be so dope

[wraith crag]

Dude it's amazing. The fact that the creatures arent just "Fauna" and "Flora" and are filed under correct taxonomic brackets just MMMMM its so good.

[wild sonnet]

Ok, so according to you, I should not be able to build a base in any part of the map, only in specific locations?
If it were the territory of a Leviathan it would be reasonable but outside of that like 60% of the map has aggresive species. You are missing out of so many cool places.

[torn perch]

I want to kill small to medium fish. Leviathans and other big things I understand not

[exotic crypt]

Yeah
Killing would just be a bandaid solution to something that can be addressed while still maintaining unkillable creatures

[ionic beacon]

You bought a survival game and are complaining because the things making it hard for you to survive cant be killed... cry me a river

[terse sinew]

Not again

[urban crescent]

is the Collector leviathan... suppose to be glowing with an outline?

[cerulean willow]

there are 3 juvenile blooms

[safe rock]

3 to clear. Third is under/inside a wreck follow the root and go up

[harsh veldt]

I'm not near my gaming PC, and I don't remember the locations, but I have definitely seen A LOT of them

[woeful sparrow]

Yeah but its sorta like the pizza chef made 2 pizzas with pepperoni and then started making margherita the 3rd time then called you genocidal for wanting pepperoni (I should clarify i entirely agree with the devs real world stance on killing and weaponry i just think the way they have decided to implement it is really really bad)

[swift basin]

You should if you want a certain curated experience which is what they want. What is the problem isnt the no killing but the lack of tools to solve the problem.

[hoary girder]

i want to kill the coral crab

[dim wharf]

but i feel like it still looks a bit messy, thankfully they are gonna improve the databank entries in the QoL update coming soon

[steel dawn]

I did that one

[rain flower]

No killing, please.

[tranquil garnet]

not really, we expected that we get a similar exp as with s1, meanwhile we are not getting it, and the smaller creatures are keep getting more bothersome, while u can't really do anything about them. I picked a spot where no fish are, 2 days latter I have some hammerheads near my base. Great... I can't do anything about them, really good vibes. Actually thinking about making a refund cause it's getting unbearable.

[slim kraken]

It feels like Toby fox removing whole genocide route from Undertale and force everyone to play pacifist route

[oblique sierra]

thereis no way to kill those "leviathans"?Like with a super harpoon?

[fleet jacinth]

we’re in agreement then my friend. being able to have a more permanent solution to smaller aggressive fauna would be much appreciated

[limpid hornet]

Idk if that's the best allegory because there's different kinds of people wanting killing to be back and a lot of them want it in a different degree and for different reasons.

[last yarrow]

this might take some time

[long robin]

Is there a suggestion tab anywhere I think we should be able to free look while moving like in Dayz

[dire forum]

What if we get like a top half of the giant sub we already have and a sail thay goes up, even a deep sea fishing mechanic? I always like fishing in video games idk

[crimson kindle]

Where are you even getting this much titanium 💀

[craggy arch]

i'm lowky looking for someone to play with me since my friends don't own a xbox or pc

[vital tusk]

Any date for the next content update or are we not there yet?

[junior pivot]

People don’t like being forced to play a game in a specific way solely . Just give the choice to the players it’s not like it’s going to change your core game + at the end of the day it’s a game and Gamers paid Money for it.

[spare ore]

Is there a solve for softlock?

[bright turtle]

#1504382464934547466

[torn perch]

Well we are the ones paying. WE should have a say in some things. They are getting a LOT of money so they might as well actually make the paying customers happy

[exotic citrus]

the rest of the critters either don't deserve it or are too important to kill.

on the other hand I'm sick of those damn hammerheads shredding my tadpole... I must get my revenge...

[toxic blaze]

Let me kill if I want to, if you don't then don't kill. Its simple. What I do and how I play doesn't affect you in any way shape or form

[winter zenith]

Exact!! And of course, devs being impatient or snippy isn’t a pass, but I understand why it gets to that point at times lol
But I also feel like there is some overreaction here and there

[eager silo]

'gamers paid money' is a joke of an excuse. nobody is forcing you to buy the game lol.

[safe rock]

If you did three then you need to do small ones near the final one. They only open up after the first 3 are done.

[deep jolt]

Is it a bug where I can't delete/shrink a room becasue it says it has attachments when I never even set foot in that room?

[digital wharf]

do fish repopulate an area? or are they all gone when you eat em all

[terse sinew]

Why u need so many? @long robin sugestion tab is in game pause the game and its there

[unborn fjord]

https://subnautica2.nolt.io
Freelook whenever might be overkill but I'd love it for when you're grabbed onto a tadpole

[swift basin]

Yeah its all the vegans and liberals bud, not an intentional design choice to curate gameplay for an intended experience. Pure woke propaganda etc /s

[sullen girder]

Honestly this is how they should handle the whole “killing” thing: make it easy for the small fish, kind of hard for the Hammerheads and up, and impossible for leviathans. This way hiding is still the preferred alternative but minor threats (or annoyances) can be removed for things like basebuilding.

[bright merlin]

You have the science where you can build a base there and its safe too, but if you complain that a pack of mango attacks you when out of your base knowing you build a base on their turf, if your fault. plus its not like the dev didnt gace anyone tools and mutations to defend yourselves, you just refuse to use it or you just complain that you cannot exterminate EVERY PREDATORY FAUNA in the game just to "smooth" your gameplay. What if at some point you need the meterial that said fauna gives like the Stalkers in the 1st game but you already killed them ?

[unborn fjord]

Turn around, see leviathan, "guess I'll die"

[woeful sparrow]

I think ultimately the best option is for people to be able to kill fish and it not be incentivised than for there to be an invisible wall preventing that choice from even being made in the first place

[fossil citrus]

Hey everyone! I'm playing Subnautica 2 on Xbox, and since we don't have console commands yet, I'm looking for a PC player who can generate a fresh Cloud Import key for me.
Could someone please boot up a world on PC, run the unlockall command, and use the "Upload to Cloud" feature to generate a world key for me? Please DM me the code so it doesn't get used by someone else first. Thank you so much! Playing on creative n don’t wanna unlock again ty

[rain flower]

No killing, please.

[steel dawn]

Can you please tell me where all of the viral blooms are in the end game areas? Or a video?

[last yarrow]

bc green glow

[wraith crag]

There is only one instance where the "Let me kill em" people have a point.

For me, I built a base near a hammerhead. And for whatever reason, hammerheads attack docked tadpoles. Now, normally that's fine. There was an ocean current and i could just sonic blast his butt into it and send him away

No, you can't. Because if a fish is too far outside it's proper location, it will just respawn back there. If you've built your base somehwere and it just so happens that there's a fish in that area that can ruin your base, you can do NOTHING about it other than simply deconstruct the entire base and move somewhere else. In SN1, if a gasopod was making too much noise outside, or a stalker had wandered too close to the safe shallows and kept stealing my scanner room drones, you kill it and the problem is solved. In SN2, if a fish becomes a problem, you can't do zilch about it.

[vital yacht]

where can i get the axum wall lamp?

[candid leaf]

read some more EULA's lol

[fleet jacinth]

they don’t even have to be killed if they really despise the idea of it. just have nibblers swim off when you damage them enough and say they “got scared off and won’t come back” or something like that and both parties are appeased

also i’d reply to you individually but i’m still on cooldown, @toxic blaze i am yet to see a single counterargument to the fact that it’s just a player choice issue which won’t effect other people in any way. if you’re of the belief that killing smaller fauna is some game killing crime against humanity then you can not do it and other people who want to can. i don’t see the issue

[tranquil garnet]

And what happens when you pick a spot when there are no creatures nearby, but 2 days later you get hammerheads as your neighbour, cause they follow you pod. what will you do then?

[potent ember]

Multi-tool has no effect on creatures, at most causing the animal to move away for a few seconds before attacking again in like 2 seconds, the resonator only affects parasites, and the flare costs inventory slots.

All the defensive strategies in the current game are awful, All this just because you can't kill even the smallest animal in the game, and you expect people not to react to the absence of defense and offense in the game?

[subtle perch]

REAL I love the new biological details sm theres so much nuance to it now instead of having it rigidly fit into a few classes, its SUCH a treat to read the PDA now omg

[limpid hornet]

Personally I feel untouched by this matter whether things will be killable or not because I simply am not looking to kill things, though if it does get added I would prefer if they make it tedious and/or have serious consequences as not to encourage it in any way, because SN was never about that in the first place.

[vital tusk]

Directional lock could be cool i do feel like i have alot less control over where I can look while moving

[unborn fjord]

You've never seen Nintendo's eula

[bright merlin]

Since when do the hammerhead follows you ? they have a territory thet dont leave most of the time

[winter zenith]

Why do you text like a caveman LMAO

[bold flame]

Idea: add reapers and allow us to pet them!

💀

[torn perch]

I want to kill small to medium fish. Leviathans and other big things I understand why not. But just because a few people don't want to kill the fish doesn't mean the majority should just be brushed off. I was literally FEARING this before I bought it.

[woeful sparrow]

Games are inherently political bro, especially one like this on the topics of environmentallism and colonialism

[stark jetty]

I think that’s the balance, honestly. Developers should listen and understand where players are coming from, but that doesn’t mean every piece of feedback has to override the original vision of the game. At the same time, players being frustrated is understandable too. The real issue is probably when either side stops communicating respectfully.

[minor geyser]

@stark jetty Ideas for Subnautica 2. Where can you post them? Post them on our Nolt ( https://subnautica2.nolt.io/ ). See #1497212756674478220 and ⁠#announcements for more information.

[swift basin]

If anything leviathans should be made to roam a bit, in my old game the reaper wandering mod was peak

[radiant grail]

imo an ability to kill fish is mainly an immersion issue, from what I've seen people want predators to leave you alone for more than 5-10 seconds after you wack them with the axe. I really doubt people expect to swim around and punch a hammerhead for three minutes, when they could just punch it once so it leaves you alone. Pretty sure that's what the devs mean by "We know the creatures are too annoying now", and "We are finding ways to take care of them without implementing killing"

[desert bobcat]

why don't we give the water slugs a bazooka

What were they people doing in the 2000s when no one cared about the EULA?

[fleet jacinth]

who even mentioned politics what

[orchid sonnet]

uhm, they have a perfectly good reason. Anyone who pays attention to the narrative of subnautica 1 will realize its about learning to co-exist with a ecosystem even if its hostile. Its not necessarily pacifism, because they still allow you to cook and eat fish and what not. But a big part of subnauticas messaging is living in the ecosystem and feeding into the circle of life. Not destroying it.

[west grove]

hi guys is the game unfinished? theres a border when i try swimming towards the big tree?

[candid leaf]

exactly ^_^

[fossil citrus]

I’m jus tryna play creative without having to rescan everything so if anyone could generate a cloud key after running unlock all in game that would be amazing

[limpid hornet]

Honestly if they were to add killing of smaller creatures I would love if leviathans started closing in on different areas looking for food.

yeah go ahead and cross it, there's some friendly fish with cake and presents on the other side

[sturdy yacht]

literally first thing the game tells u

[junior pivot]

If you bought the game you have the right to play it the way you want . Just because you don’t want to kill doesn’t mean everybody has to abide by that rule. Just keep playing your game passively and let others who want to kill small fish here and there do so . I bought the game because i like the CORE gameplay and i loved subnautica .

[fading surge]

you are able to go past it, theres some cool stuff past there, go part the border

how do I see which blackboxes I've found already?

[wild sonnet]

Im not asking to exterminate every predatory fauna (but if for some reason you want, I don't see why someone should stop you, it's your game after all). Only the most annoying ones arround my base. And I don't suffer from the fauna, my Tadpoles do, wich don't have any mutation nor tools to prevent attacks.
I would be ok if fauna weren't attacking docked tadpoles...

[wraith crag]

Isn't it??? Also the fact that the creatures here make references to real life evolution back on earth, such as the ||shiver leviathan|| being the most closely related creature on the planet to humans due to how it evolved is just SO good. And also the unique interactions with creatures makes em feel so much more alive. For example, the ||four eyes|| has highly developed large eyes it uses to seek out prey, but if you shine your light at it, it seems to back off, most likely due to the light causing it discomfort. I REALLY hope they add a thing for deep sea creatures where flashing the light discourages them from attacking, as fish that deep would have less evolved eyes, and would be intimidated by a flashing bright light.

[unborn fjord]

There won't ever be a 1:1 of the prawn suit

[tough stone]

Wonder what vechial the devs will add in early access update when the new biome and story is done

[swift kraken]

Do you know how many Nibblers there are on the entire map? 13
Do you know how many Hammerheads there are? 10

If you could kill them I think people would very easily drive them to extinction, and I don’t think it’s a particularly interesting solution to the problem. I think there just needs to be more balancing and some new deterrents introduced and it’d be way better

[glad dove]

Finally beat what was available for early access, my buddy and I ran the game for almost 36 hours just because we’ve been so enthralled in the building methods, oh also ||does anyone know if you can get the Margaret wanted poster in game||

[prisma nimbus]

i hope they let me hammer down the ||collector|| whenever a damage system gets implemented

Never had this issue and have 1 base near the first Marrowbreach you can incounter, the hammerheads leave me alones, and you can use floodlights to dissuade most fish because of their extreme light sensitivity

the resonator affects pretty much everything? I've used it to ward off nibblers and marrowbreaches most of the time, and i've used it on epicureans and hammerheads

i agree about deterents dont even wanna kill them if i just got an upgrade on a tool/vehicle or a thing to put on my base to keep them (hostile creatures) away from it id be happy

[oblique cradle]

You mean the terms and conditions you used to get with the paper manual of games? Yeah I know buddy. No one cared about them. No one cared about all those TOCs when you first load up a game.. or watched a movie. I've got TOCs of the original Windows 3.1 somewhere at work. Yeah.. they existed back then but magically only care about Subnautica having it on their website. Very weird.

[radiant grail]

Btw why do people here call Subnautica a sandbox game? It's a survival game that has a set beginning and an ending, where you're following the world's rules and story. Sure the world is open, but it never allowed you to do whatever you wanted

[sand forge]

does anyone know if autosave is an option i just lost like 4 hours of progress because my game crashed

[signal hawk]

It autosaves quite frequently. Usually right after you enter a dangerous situation, in my experience.

[wraith crag]

I think what could be nice is a "Aggressive Fauna Deterrent" system you can add to a base. A device that goes outside the base, and emits a frequency too high for humans to hear but that the fish can hear perfectly fine, and it discourages them from getting too close. Similar to how a cat alarm works to keep cats off of your lawn.

[native berry]

once its fully released so 2-4 years sony dont like early access games

[woeful sparrow]

This is the main issue i have the predators dont act like they would, a predator gettign hit with a sonic resonator or shock biomod would probably never touch you again

[exotic crypt]

I have seen a pretty simple solution suggested the issue of being annoyed by creatures in a certain area
Pretty much after some time, if a creature is chased off from an area repeatedly, then they'd learn to avoid going there

[wintry lodge]

I do think we should at LEAST have things like the grab traps back.

Things like that and the stasis rifle allowed us to defend ourselves without actively harming the creatures. Now, I understand the stasis rifle was "OP." I and many others want it back, but it was definitely an endgame-level device.

What I'm saying is, things like the rifle and the traps are great, logical middle grounds that allow us as players to not feel too helpless.

It's not about power fantasies. I don't want that, either.

I just want more ways to interact with the world. And, at the end of the day, having no traps and invincible fish feels lame, cheap, and immersion-breaking.

Because it is.

And the knife being absent is okay since we still have a functional metal blade, which can be essential for survival in real life.

The devs could easily please everyone on this (well, those of us who understand the game but still have preferences). There will always be the toxic people who want to "hunt."

And I mean, it is a survival game. Hunting is part of survival. I find it silly that predators are present, yet the game gets all prickly about us humans needing to eat. It's just weird and unnecessary.

[winter zenith]

And the devs have the right to develop the game how they want

[white abyss]

fished the entire story of sub2 gee is a fun game happy i didnt watch any play throughs until i got to the end of current early access story

[tiny imp]

Mods, please do something. This chat is no longer about the game, it's become a toxic mess for the small number of very vocal people that want to kill things. It's driving the rest of us away

[eager silo]

I mean... the way you want, within what the developers presumably intend. If I want to play super mario and one shot bowser with a bazooka, I don't expect the devs to make that happen for me. My point is that the clear intent is that the developers want you to find ways to deal with the hostile creatures without just murder-hoboing your way through them. that both doesn't line up with the themes of the series and is honestly a lot less creative. They literally said earlier they are both looking at tuning fauna aggression rates and also other ways of deterring creators non lethally. it's early access.

[prisma nimbus]

i mean like yeah duh
just copying and pasting the prawn suit would be silly but i do hope we get a mech like it
i wanna finally take down the stupid sharks

[indigo saddle]

Is it true that subnautica 2 will remain at early access for 2 years?

[weak cargo]

you can’t stop me! None of you can!

[spare bone]

we are the ones paying though

[orchid sonnet]

is killing fish part of the core gameplay of subnautica? 😭. Not from what I recall. Was there a convenience upgrade jn the game that allowed you to kill fish and cook them instantly? Yes. But thats not a core element of the gameplay lol. Cooking and eating fish was. and you can still do that in subnautica 2.

And you're right, if some people want to kill fish here and there. They have the right to do that. But it goes against alot of what subnautica stands for narratively. So unfortunately its just not gonna fulfill that for you. And thats okay. But they dont have to change it just because some players want the freedom to do that.

[torn perch]

I'm tired of not being able to kill things. I was hit well inside my base already. It's a game of freedom and yet we keep losing freedom with every sequel in any game

[potent ember]

If they want to teach this, then create extinction mechanics, hunting animals has negative consequences, make people understand why this is negative.

If you hunt them to the end, you'll never see them again, and that can affect the ecosystem, It's not that difficult.

Why are people genuinely concerned about how others play their own game?

[crimson kindle]

My opinion on the killing thing:
Leviathans - they should remain immortal and anyone complaining about that is stupid, if the devs give us the ability to remove the biggest threat in a survival game then it just becomes a sandbox game
Sharks - right now they are a bit unbalanced and the tools we have to distract them are pretty weak, I think they should also remain immortal and the devs should add more ways to deter/distract them
Small fish - I think they should be killable, I don't get why the devs thought otherwise

[tranquil wraith]

axum bacterial culture doesnt respawn right?

[zenith warren]

Hello

[valid dust]

I feel like this debate wouldn’t have been a big issue if the dev who made that original statement wasnt a prick about it

[hollow swallow]

3k+ on "fish not dying is immersion breaking" is crazy awesome.

[subtle perch]

YES YES YES OMG, PLEASE ID ACTUALLY BEG UW TEAM FOR THAT, that'd be a better defense system than resorting to hurting the poor creatures cause we are there to preserve and study them nawt become a invasive species and hunt them down </3 plus it'd make the game much more alive and realistic!!

[glad dove]

||I put mine near that on look over the crab fields, my buddy hates the hammer heads because of how interested they are in our base||

[lyric cairn]

Hey i was wondering if there is a way to reclaim the sea moth display. I didnt know the twitch drops were happening and i heard that you could claim it here on the discord server.

[teal locust]

Perhaps the true problem is this games dumb ai all along, could in some ways make sense. I have seen fish do questionable things, like hover around my base, even hitting into walls multiple times trying in vain to get me, you know you might be onto something, perhaps we have been looking at the wrong problem, that the fish ai in this game is truly dumb

[elfin geode]

You all are babies if you want to kill everything

mods people are talking about things i disagree with please stop this at once!!!1!

come on man lol

100% a better criticism of colonialism is to let people see the fruits of what it does rather than not let it happen in the first place

[wild sonnet]

There weren't any when I build... They moved here after.

Moderators squealing about requests to kill creatures and threatening to mute but this guy is literally spamming slowmode...

[wanton geode]

no one talking about PDA cannot be opened in the menu like in SN1 and BZ? like… i am losing a lot of lore in early game trying not to die due the oxygen low level🥲

[hasty compass]

I didn't had a single problem with them with where I placed my habitat, it feels kinda sensible that creatures will attack your docked vehicle if they would attack undocked vehicle considering docked vehicle is still easily reachable from the water lmao

[native berry]

then make your own game the devs are the ones making the game not you not other players they have final say.

[fossil citrus]

Because it gets rid of the purpose of the game every developer has tried this and look at where cod is now the people who made the game made it this way for a reason if you don’t like it then play something else or cry about it to someone who cares now can someone please give me a dang unlocked world code it’s 5 seconds and easy af all it is is giving me access to a world you make the same way you could transfer save games.. does nobody care?

[random hinge]

Imagine if collectors could drop the hardened claw upon attacking the player and we could use it as some kind of super enamel

[sand coral]

question about the shiver leviathan, how does it interact with host players and non-host players? does it not aggro non-host players?

[spring dune]

Peak early access. I enjoyed the story so much.

[spare bone]

never said I didn't like it? I'd just want something for the mangos, apparently you can cook the harmless fish and this is where they draw the line

[torn perch]

And we also aren't forced to have the same pacifist ideas as you. Don't like how we wanna kill? Go play animal crossing

[prisma nimbus]

Humans are the apex predators let me kill the ||collector|| with a butterknife or even the multitool

[white abyss]

wait wait wait shiver levi wdymmm explain is this the edge of the world ones

[random spindle]

Dont like how the games built? Go play sons of the forrest

[eternal pumice]

for me its not that they attack my base and more so are hovering around where i built mine ane always coming in to nip at me when im out of my home which maybe to be expected when building in something elses habitat and home but we can ignore this

[crimson furnace]

The final mission of this story is AWFUL and SUPER grindy

[teal helm]

Yo is this literally all anyone talks about in here 🙏

[vital tusk]

Pillars? Im assuming it's the collector damaging them no?

[oblique cradle]

It was an issue before the dev responded. Imagine.. you release a new game.. and people mainly love it. Then the posts.. the comments.. about how woke the game is.. its trash.. then insult the devs and worse.. call them every name under the sun. And quite typical.. the gamers can dish it but can't take it. The response wasn't that bad. If you don't like this game.. it isn't for you.. that's okay.. go play something else.. it was perfectly innocent compared to what the devs get. All over social media. All over Steam forums. Hell.. look at your post. But.. now you all play the victims while being silent on the death threats.. insults etc.

[toxic blaze]

Seems like the devs dont know their playerbase

[west grove]

guys im confused if the game has an ending yet or not? i gained the gene where i can decipher alien language but now what?

[candid leaf]

its not grindy right O.o

its not bad unless you soft lock yourself lol

is it a bug that some things dont respawn in sub2?

[onyx egret]

this is hell rn

[wet robin]

if i want to play a game where i want to kill something i'll go play helldivers or something. not every game you play needs to be a murderfest, some of you guys are genuinely insufferable

[weak stone]

does this underwater cliff thingy lead u anywhere? or is it the area where you start at before going up in the lifepod

[woeful sparrow]

Dude you really gotta stop with the whataboutism even if what youre saying means well it just comes off as really bad faith discussion

[warped oracle]

evreybody is complaining about not being able to kill x3

it wasnt fun anymore when you were able to just murder all the fish. no complication just knife spamming huh. well its not the case now and I find it better this way. you also now think before building a base. think about the location and potential dangers. it aint just spam killing fish and eleminating leviathans from existence :)

[winter zenith]

That’s what I’m wondering too 💀💀 lmao maybe the mods need to make a designated chat for people to argue about whether or not they should be allowed to kill the fish 😂😂

[unborn fjord]

Definitely hoping the PDA pause returns
It's a very nice accessibility feature

[bright merlin]

define the small fish? the mangos, the hammerhead? because if its the small fish you can grab and cook you technically are already killing them

[spare bone]

that's not an answer to criticism is it, "make your own game". I rate SN1 10/10, that's why I got this one. And I've never said I didn't like SN2, that's just your messed up mind making up assumptions.

[wild sonnet]

I see a lot of people here not wanting the kill mechanic. Then go downvote it because the feedback post represents other reality

[red hare]

I don't think it's the devs who are stupid

[oblique cradle]

And you've just done the same thing buddy. As you did before. Downplay the attacks on the devs and go very silent on calling the devs names. Thanks for proving my original point (again).

[vital tusk]

Shouldn't be able to kill anything with an insta kill animation

[spring dune]

Everyone complaining about whether or not to kill meanwhile I want a symbol to know if my friend is actually on my tadpole or not so I don’t drive off

[subtle escarp]

Just keep making it bigger until it fits

[fleet jacinth]

saying “if you don’t like the $30 game you paid for you should just go play something else lulul” is rather unambiguously a stupid statement for a developer to make in an official channel

[torn perch]

All we are asking for is the ability to kill fish. Give us that then the rest is balancing. It's dumb how we can't just say let us kill fish without the people just going all pacifist. It's not like having the ability is going to effect you all. Gives us all more ways to have fun

[mild siren]

well im glad i backed up my save cause that power outage wiped it lol... guess im taking a break for now

[unborn fjord]

Processor, after you unlock it you can make it with the habitat builder

[valid dust]

I’m not the one throwing death threats or nothing bro. My personal philosophy is just give the creatures health values; dont add guns. I’m having fun with the game, but it is really stupid that a game where things are actively trying to eat/hurt you cant even be hurt in any capacity other than a sound attack

[signal hawk]

This one isn't scannable, but there are plenty of others to find.

[abstract meadow]

Is 60 plus power good enough for a mega base?

[cyan kayak]

they gotta change the leviathan chase music to some track thats closer to lava castle

[hollow swallow]

to those who saying fish should not die. Let me ask you, if you went to aurora's drive core and you have to repair it with bleeder bleeding you out, what will you do? I m one of those who never killed any creatures except those and only there, cause i have to. now imagine you can't kill them and have to deal with it, i will quit the game.

[random spindle]

Twice as big as u think, make sure you arent touching the sea floor and connect with the silver’s prongs when you go to dock.

[prisma nimbus]

You should be able to do anything and kill anything if you're determined enough
we dont even get an option to

[wraith crag]

The thing i think subnautica 2 could lean heavily on is that Humans are NOT the apex anymore. On 4546B, it was the reaper, ghost and dragon leviathan (maybe Kharra if a bacterium can be considered a predator). But humans were still alive and kicking, still in control of the universe they inhabit. But in SN2, it's heavily implied that ||humans are going extinct or that you're the last one||, and this isn't a planet for you to conqour. It's a planet you have to learn to live alongside. You can't kill every problem, you have to work around every problem creativley. I mean look at tha hammerhead, it's armoured, so much so it can ram coral at incredible speeds and take no phyiscal damage. No knife no matter how sharp is killing that thing. So you have to find a way to work AROUND the creature.

[wet robin]

people seriously tryna tell devs how to develop their own game 😭

[teal helm]

You need a upgrade for scanner

[woeful sparrow]

When did i downplay the attacks on the devs????? like please show me. you are discussing in very bad faith man, Like ill say "Oh i dont like how fish are immortal" and youll respond with "what about this guy on twitter"??? like thats relevant to my point>>

[spare bone]

It's because their point is valid here, and it is usually the loud minority that is defending not wanting the kill mechanic and misinterpreting what it actually means

[red hare]

Actually, it does make you sound politically illiterate. You have the right to ideology and the devs don't? Spare me.

[native berry]

not really no all my stuff rn is useing 150 power i have 380+ power

will i be punished/chased immediately if i go into the "in-development" zone?

[sturdy yacht]

why do people say sub2 is woke? its an underwater alien exploration game why does everything have to be political? go outside

No - Simulation Game

does bacterial cuture respawn?

[high silo]

let me murder everything rn (devs don't kow a thing)

[gaunt bluff]

when i read this i thought you were saying you could make the ingots with the habitat builder 😭

[harsh veldt]

Subnautica is a survival game. SN2 too.

All I can tell is that Margaret Meida is, IMO, the ultimate depiction of a survivalist who did actually survive NOT imposing silly limits on herself. Her prawn suite is still something many of the players dream about.

So as always, you can fear and hide, or you can stand up and fight for survival. Survival isn't pretty, it is what it is.

As a survivalist (in any environment) you have to:

1. Get food and water. First one will obviously make you kill some things. You CAN NOT survive on plants only, especially given their real growth speed
2. Get shelter
3. Defend yourself using, obviously, weapons as predators don't care about your arguments, they can only be stopped by force.

[eternal pumice]

ok so i was right about needing the room to be higher cause we did get one working, and while i was trying to figure out how to fix the one that didnt i undocked the one that worked.. and then it also stopped working 💀

[potent ember]

Imagine being disrespectful to someone who considered your game something legitimate to invest in, just because they are asking for changes that they genuinely believe will improve their own experience in the name of a better game.

[fossil citrus]

I love this game but the community doesn’t NEWSFLASH THE GAME WASNT MADE FOR YOU IT WAS MADE FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT THIS COMPANY

[heavy star]

As a profesionnal leviathan hunter, i need to say im mad at this

[white abyss]

yes /spoiler it is at the very bottom its in the green hazzy area one per hole theres a collector above stay low and quiet

[fleet jacinth]

did the same exact thing to me when i tried having this discussion with them lol. i’d recommend just not engaging further i don’t think theyre able to argue in good faith whatsoever

[crimson kindle]

Small fish - half moon, harvest moon, waterslugs, etc (anything you can pick up)
No one had issues with the fish being killable in the first 2 games, so why change something that's not broke (also they stop the tadpole when we drive into them which is weird)

[ruby vault]

I hope they add a vehicle that you can build inside of so you can have your base with you wherever you go

[toxic cliff]

The dumb fish (nibblers and marrowbreech) annoy me, are you able to kill ANY of them?

[wet robin]

because its a video game 😭 you're assuming it's going to be realistic like real life, it's not, this is the same game where people get printed out of quantum quartz data chips its not realistic and doesn't need to be lmao

[autumn escarp]

||the tadpole is going to have a prawn suit type module to make it a mech||

[pastel sable]

idk

[jade sluice]

Because the decision against implementing weapons was initially an explcitly political decision (response to Sandy Hook), I'm not arguing for or against in this statement, just want to say why some say this

[fiery leaf]

if killing is your survival method, what are you without it? 🗿
OOPS DIDNT MEAN TO REPLY

[oblique cradle]

This is pretty much what the devs are saying. If you're not happy. Really don't play the game. They have a feedback method, if you enjoy the game and want something then use it. The same discussions going round in circles. The devs will either do something.. or meet in the middle.. or not.

[safe rock]

I don't design games but why oh why do you not make the game I'm telling you to!! Some people!! Lol

waaawaaa gah people the answers clear here.. why are we still having this fight

[unborn fjord]

Wishful thinking foulhawk

[sturdy yacht]

not adding weapons has nothing to do with politics do u people even have human contact other than discord?

[torn perch]

Same argument for killing fish btw. You can not kill. We can. We can all have fun.

[unborn fjord]

If you wish to post memes do that in #memes-and-media

[winter zenith]

That honestly could be a fascinating mechanic. If killing a bunch of the bigger fish had negative repercussions on the world/ecosystem somehow. Like bloom getting worse or spreading? But that might be a bit much to implement into the game 🤔

[tranquil wraith]

it hasnt respawned for me and im going on 30+ hours in my game; heard that other people were able to get 4 or 5 and i only got 3

[weary matrix]

ill probably just destroy the giant room we made and lift it up higher away from the ground or tell my brother we should put the vehicle building to a new area so it has enough room by itself

I'm so pleased mods will allow me to lay waste to all of the fish in subnautica 2 whilst also being terrified of the depths.

[fleet jacinth]

the most woke thing both subnautica games do is gesture at capitalism being bad i really don’t get how people get “woke” from anything in subnautica

[red hare]

You can literally cook the fish and eat them, this entire debate is PURE ideology. You simply cannot accept that different games can have different mechanics, and this trend of criticism's main point of contention is against the motivation for this design decision, rather than the decision itself. It is politically illiterate to claim to not have any ideological motivation behind these arguments, as there is no human being who is free of ideology.

[heavy star]

how many reapers did u killed ?

[haughty dove]

bro what do i do, i looked at this blackbox and theres this eye robot and just nothing else, no pointers or anything and im 600m down

imo they could manage the “kill” topic as a menu option (on/off) giving people the possibility to choose if they want to enable the feature or not…

one thing is strange... when was subnautica primarily about cute ocean exploration ???

[wet robin]

feedback is saying something like: "I don't like how aggressive the AI is." or "I think we should have better defensive or deterrent tools". What feedback is not is constantly complaining about some whole "ideological" thing as if that even matters. Feedback should be on whether you enjoy the story, or reporting bugs, or giving your take on balance.

[teal locust]

Its been something thrown around and dumb enough its now about unkillable fish and that makes this game woke, but really dont ask me to explain the logic...i cant

because anything they don't like is called woke.. that's how it works these days 🙂

[light gust]

Any chance there will be a collectors edition?

[wraith crag]

I don't think they're defending the "We shouldnt kill anything" part. I mean if i ram into a harvestmoon with a tadpole and it doesnt swim out of the way, yeah it should die. But a marrow breach? Hammerhead? They'd need more than a survival knife, and given that the devs ARE anti-weapons, it's doubtful they'll give a tool to us that has the express purpose of killing. The survival knife was used to cut and forage for materials, with the added benefit of doing damage to creatures cause, yknow, it's a knife. The multitool LOOKS like an axe but it seems very blunt, acting more like a hammer. I'm not sure what they could add to the game that isn't expressly designed to kill, but can be used to kill. Like people are saying "Let us kill the creatures!" but aren't providing ideas on a tool that has a function in the game for pure survival, AND can be reasonably considered a weapon as well.

[woeful sparrow]

You say that like being woke is bad lmao, all the best narritive games are woke

[signal hawk]

Feedback is anything I like or dislike about the game that can be changed to make it better. It's not just about praise and bug reporting.

Guys, how can i give feedback to the developers?

[eager silo]

holding marguerit up as the apex of survival when Riley literally can survive alone, cure an alien disease and build a spaceship to live another day without killing a single leviathan is certainly a choice

[spring dune]

But giving feedback on something the devs have already said isn’t happening isn’t feedback, that’s just nagging them until they conform to what you want.

[winter zenith]

What? Sandy Hook happened before the first game even came out?? What are you talking about??? /gen 😭😭

[high silo]

The devs aren't "anti-weapons" they made natural selection where the express purpose of the game is slaughter. They're merely affixed to some morality rn that runs counter to their history.

That's how I am in my game, I only kill when necessary, but for some reason people assume everyone is a life exterminator if they get some weapon or means of defense.

Please read the devs own statements:
https://kotaku.com/revulsion-with-real-guns-inspired-developer-to-make-a-g-1768960503

Charlie Cleveland, Subnautica’s game director, responded to a post on Steam this weekend explaining that real life gun violence, including the Sandy Hook shooting, inspired him to depict something other than guns in his game. He described it as “one vote towards a world with less guns,” one in which “we use non-violent and more creative solutions to solve our problems.”

[digital wharf]

this game needs something to tell me wich is the front and back of an item.. i been rotating my bioractor over and over trying to get the front in the front

[fleet jacinth]

i mean not really? it depends on if we’re using the modern definition of woke or the original one. if we’re going off the original, i’d beg to differ. but if we’re going off the modern definition which is “everything remotely left wing in my eyes” then yeah i’d agree that most ‘woke’ narrative games are good on the sole principle of nearly everything being ‘woke’ following the definition

[pastel moth]

you can press f8 in game, nolt is also an option

[spare bone]

For me, it was about the horror and exploration.

[somber fox]

the game is good i just think the entire game being underwater and all the water jst overwhelming and boring

Hey All, I was about to start looking into 'possible Taxonomic classifications' for the creatures of subnautica 2. Some of the pda entries make it seem like this might be more difficult due to ||genetic mix ups caused by the protea virus? is there a point in continuing or is the gene pool on Proteus too messed up || what do yall think?

[wet robin]

does not being able to kill some tiny fish when you run it over ruin your experience? if so, refund the game 😭 if we had realism you'd die from nitrogen narcosis over and over. who cares if some tiny fish is killable, if that's your basis on whether the early access is good or not then you're very clearly insane and you should just refund the game, nobody's forcing you to be here and complain

[subtle escarp]

yeah man there are too many fish

EXACTLY BRO LIKE this is NAWT OUR HOMEPLANET, we are almost nearing at the bottom feeders of the life cycle in this new planet what makes our human protags believe that we are the apex predators 😭
Other than that that new approach would make a much enriching experience in my opinion, brute forcing is not gonna solve anything especially when the creatures down there are much more resilient than the last two games </3

If we cant hunt by ourself, pay someone to kill leviathans

[winter zenith]

That’s actually a pretty interesting narrative I’ve never thought about (off topic, sorry). How Marguerite was very pro killing everything, Paul wanted to just stay in the base and hide away, but Bart survived the longest because he was willing to explore (unlike his father) and didn’t try to kill and destroy everything (like Marguerite).
||Well.. I guess Marguerite did live the longest but I personally prefer to pretend BZ doesn’t exist 😀||

[digital wharf]

oh wow.. how did you get that? i seen markiplier had that too.. i want it

[red hare]

it's really making the chat unusable to have this vocal minority flood the chat with this crap that has already been plentifully discussed and sent as feedback. I just want to have the chat normal again

So I can catch a flashbang but can’t cook it I think it’s +20 food and -10 health but catching it and throwing it to get flashbanged is fun

[cunning burrow]

Any devs in here wanna speak to whether we’ll eventually have the functionality to run dedicated hosted servers?

[wraith crag]

"Weapons were removed from standard survival blueprints following the massacre, on Obraxis Prime. The knife remains the only exception"

They have an ingame reason why Subnautica is anti-weapon, and it isn't "Oh the resources on the planet cant craft it" it's "Someone with access to weapons committed a massacre on a planet so awful that even in a survival situation, you are NOT allowed to craft any weapons. The knife being the only exception because a knife is essential for survival.

search "kill fish" and judge me again lol at some point it goes from feedback to annoying noise

[last palm]

I mean he is correct because it’s easy to invoke powerful feeling though unchecked capitalism and general misery and struggle. Albeit there are still extremely good narrative games that do not go into politics.

[torn perch]

Not the fact we aren't apex. A deer can kill a wolf if it gets lucky. We just want the ability to swing our multi tool and hurt small and medium fish. Is that that hard

[narrow merlin]

It's just a glitch. The Reaper statue itself you can just build, everyone has the blueprint now AFAIK

[pine blade]

really "fun"

[olive pebble]

I left this conversation 12 hours ago. Are we still on this???

They are not going to change a core game premise. Move on please.

[signal hawk]

Yes everyone who disagrees with you can be placed under the blanket of "vocal minority"

[winter zenith]

Unfortunately “woke” has very different meanings for different people. I feel like one group thinks any media that doesn’t confirm their own beliefs and biases must be “woke.” It’s okay if a media has a message or theme you don’t agree with or makes you uncomfortable 💔 (not referring to you)

[radiant grail]

I feel like they should first get a clear stance on this issue before enforcing any rules about it. The moment they set an official announcement saying "We'll consider it", or "No killing, period", then they might do something like you suggested

[crimson kindle]

Not enough dopamine, I want to be more hands-on than that

[random hinge]

is the player smaller in sn2 than sn1 it kinda feels that way. a meter feel bigger in this game than the first

[clever galleon]

there’s a difference between censoring opinions and moderating what has at this point become spam over something that has already been addressed. they’re literally looking at other options as a compromise

[fringe glen]

This is such a better way of doing it than indestructible.

[digital wharf]

omg you guys.. get a room to talk about your politics... this is subnautica. maybe go outside and breathe in some fresh air and realize not everything is a "woke" agenda...

[alpine fulcrum]

Hey, I am not sure if I reached the end of the story yet or if I am still missing anything, could anyone please tell me whats the latest story part?

[desert bobcat]

I wanna know it's interesting, what is your favourite fih

[fleet jacinth]

would be nice if the mods bothered making them different channels or something (subnautica-feedback vs subnautica-general) but unfortunately they do not know how to make a discord server so we are stuck with both slowmode and a dichotomy in what people want to talk about.

all i can say is that channel separation is the way to go and muting people for talking about something they dislike is not

[jade sluice]

See my response to a similar statement, the devs themselves state this as you can see in this linked article.

#subnautica-2-chat message

[red hare]

Not just because of that, but don't pin your stupid presumptions on me. Your scarecrow reasoning lives entirely in your mind.

[safe rock]

Yes, woke just means tolerant and considerate to me. Some see it as an attack on them.

[haughty dove]

yeah im 5 minutes in and im softlocked

[queen lantern]

Damn, how did you guys make killing fish political?

This is hilarious, I love the internet.

[spare bone]

yeah about that just on a one off side note (not gonna get into it) i had a couple of friends say there was nothing political in the story of gta 5 when that game was about "the american dream" being a lie 😭

[hollow oak]

What if I made it so it turns into a water slug smoothie? All pink and blue when you put it in the bioreactor?

[scenic swift]

Yeah but not everyone's terminally online. Some people just going to pop in and voice their opinion

[tranquil kernel]

you get a message saying you've reached the end of the early access so far

[subtle perch]

but but,,, the fih,,, ☹️

[warped hollow]

i dont think mods have the power more like honestly
i dont think they have power over slowmode directly either

[wet robin]

no you're not some profound intellectual because you disagree with the devs, you're just some chud complaining about a game nobody's forcing you to play because it makes you feel like grummz or some other anti-woke moron on twitter like there's no "Woke" agenda you're just brainrotted

[hidden vault]

If it were a game where it were possible to kill every single mob, I wouldn't think it was right to criticize people for wanting to reduce the number of fish that can be killed

[eternal pumice]

pretty sure if you talk to NoA at your base/lifepod itll give you the next place if you havent accesed the NoA terminal in the tadpole pen already
Dont Take my word on it because ive forgotten

[weary matrix]

circus politics yea

[cunning burrow]

Can someone speak to whether we’ll eventually have the functionality to run dedicated or self-hosted servers?

As in, servers hosted by a server node/PC to keep a game running perpetually for a group to come and go instead of needing the host to be online in order for the world to progress? Only way to do that currently would be to take up one player slot in the game and just have them constantly starve/thirst to death in the life pod.

[raw smelt]

without telling me where the planters are, are they in the early game areas and i'm blind or the late game areas and i'll find them eventually

[unborn fjord]

Wouldn't that be more icy water than a smoothie
Unless there's something the fabricator hasn't harnessed from the waterslug

[torn perch]

We aren't asking for guns. Just the ability to hunt. Aka kill the fish.

[oblique cradle]

If they didn't have base building I probably wouldn't be a Subnautica fan, so glad they kept the core parts in the game. Its smooth and the look of everything is fluid and clean. Love it. @digital wharf the funny thing is, I blocked them and knew exactly what they were about. Criticisng the devs for their response to the endless insults they endured.. that alone was proof to me. Now they're going on about woke. Funny actually. Sad but funny.

[exotic crypt]

Every story game pushes a "political agenda"
Giving a message about your views is quite literally a core part of storytelling

[polar shell]

help i may have softlocked my self

[unborn fjord]

Also damnit I want a smoothie now

[potent ember]

Wait, how is the director helping the world to have less guns with a game? The world remains violent, but much less so compared to other eras, even with many violent video games.

Games don't affect reality, People's ideas and choices come long before what they consum.

Ok Gripe time… We need at least a knife in this game. I enjoyed the thermal knife and cooking fish in contact it saved tons of time and storage space having to go back to base to cook fish when I run out kinda annoying.
THERE IS NO REASON THE DEVS CANT MAKE HOSTILE FISH RESPAWN IF KILLED. We need a way to fight back it’s killing the whole survival of an alien world vibe when you can’t even properly defend yourself.

[daring tinsel]

you not drinking the slugs then i hope, because you killing them

Yea I talked to NoA but he didn’t have anything new and I talked to him in the tadpole pens

i mean i dont want to look at just water everywhere? not that much big of an ask. and why isnt there cool stuff like megalodon or mosasaurus. the animals in this game are incredibly lacking. and swimming everywhere is boring

[hasty glade]

But you can, collect them and cook em, there’s ya go, ya killed em, either that or just go learn how to install UE4SS and download the killable mod from Nexus. they aren’t gonna change it dawg so either stop whining or figure out what you wanna do. could always just go back to sub 1 or even BZ.

[swift kraken]

But he’s beautiful

[wraith crag]

Eeeeh that is true but also remember there's a tadpole specilist and seemingly you need training before piloting one. But in both subnautica 1 and 2, you can craft vehicles you aren't qualified to operate. The only difference between a vehicle and a weapon you aren't qualified to use is that you're more likely to hurt yourself if you operate a vehicle you lack the qualifications to pilot, but are more likely to hurt others with a weapon you arent qualified to use. So that could explain why you can craft suibmarines no problem, but the fabricator refuses to give blueprints to any weapons. Plus in the game it literally says "Weapons are only used to hurt other colonists, or the self" or something to that effect. So even SN2 is giving an ingame reason as to why anyone without the proper credentials can't have a weapon

[daring rain]

I’m gonna bet my salary and say I think all this malding on Reddit and online about not being able to kill fish or “deterrence” is a Krafton bot farm

[wet robin]

okay first off what are you talking about, this game isn't some "anti-colonialist" propaganda its a exploration game on some alien water world its not that deep. second trying to be condescending only works when you can spell correctly, it'd be written: "sweetie" not "sweatie" if you wanna get it right next time, hope that helps

[high silo]

The problem is that if the devs made subnautica 1 now they'd neuter it in terms of player freedom in how we respond to ocean life aggression.

ok so i have a good pc with the right specs but when i got the game and tyied to play it keeps crashing not leting me get to the starting menu.

Also dedicated servers are unlikely

Get me a PC and I'll use the mod. And I do play sn1 and bz. I play them all. And what's so bad about having the ability to kill fish. Is it some forbidden thing? What if it's rephrased to hunting? Because that's what it is. That and defence

[spare bone]

[spare ore]

Welp it seems I gotta restart 8h of progress for the 3rd time

[molten cosmos]

honestly i didnt mind not being able to kill the fih
what i did mind was not having an easy way to scare them off
in BZ and OG i could just hit them (broodsharks, stalkers) with a knife and make them go away but in sn2 theres no easy way to do so
resonator doesnt really work, the zap biomod sends them away for like a grand total of 5 seconds and only if you hit them with the smal hit radius and dash only lets you dodge them which requires being aware of the attack

oh and you cant even get the zap biomod (or really any other than defaults) untill you are like 19 hours into the game

[desert bobcat]

and scrumptious~

[potent ember]

They can, but they teach something when they offer such criticism, Subnautica isn't teaching anything.

If the developers truly wanted to teach about pacifism and harmony with the ocean, they should teach why and what happens if we overstep boundaries.

[final yoke]

Does anyone know if the devs have said anything about being able to replay black boxes/data downloads/personal messages?

[red onyx]

You could always use the sonic resonator or it's variant to knock back mid sized creatures, or use flares to distract. If you make fish killable it runs into the same problem as subnautica 1 where the stasis rifle is too strong and removes the entire unstoppable alien horror part of the game

[gaunt bluff]

how about instead of going after fish to kill/hunt them you could have the ability to throw out a net or use a fishing rod ontop of the coral areas that stick out of the water

its a win win (killing fish kinda / fishing mechanics)

can you please buy me a house? I dont have parents and would really like to live in it -_-

[pastel moth]

I had to deconstruct stuff and make it again, I had the same issue

[desert bobcat]

the trident isnt just gonna be a rectangle right?

Like that's just a friggin long cube 😭

[woeful sparrow]

Everything is political my guy literally everything about your life is inherently political

[spare ore]

First of all no game made me replay it that much lol. Secondly i have played for hours and NoA don’t want to give me a black box to investigate to go further in the story which I am literally very near to end it this time.

[jade sluice]

Not really fair to judge a game still in early access;
Many things can still change, one excellent example wven with SN1 is removal of the Teraformer from the game

[final yoke]

You can look at the text, but can't replay the audio

[rapid salmon]

probably because they’re used to it from the first game and feel it was an unnecessary thing to remove (what with the thermal blade allowing you to cook fish on the fly giving actual utility to the act), that’s my optimistic hunch

[polar pasture]

just let us genocide the fish population please

[warped hollow]

i dont get where politics are coming from much
is it really that political

[oblique cradle]

Cheers guys. Continue the good work. We love the game and I can't wait to get some updates. By that time I should have put probably 50+ hours in.. maybe more..

[boreal marsh]

Why does Sugar of Saturn need salt?
It's lead Acetate, with a formula of Pb(C2H3O2)2
Which, notably, does not contain chlorine or sodium

[hollow kayak]

was this game’s plot written before or after Mickey 17

[rare bear]

why did i just teleport to my tadpole dock with my tadpole?

[wheat thorn]

or what about something like the torpedos on the sea moth from the first game

no fish get killed and the player has something to deal with them win win

[sacred lion]

||one is at the roof of the ruined base near the alien observatory at the other side of the chasm||

[gleaming ice]

Mango Nibblers are like eevees from pokemon, There is Marrowbreach and Mango Needler

[hidden vault]

I want use a marrow breach to ride

[inner spear]

A juvenile clam is about 0.25 mm to 20 mm (about 0.01 to 0.8 inches) in shell length and since the great jaw is a juvenile maby smaller and the biggest clam is 1.4 meters so the great jaw could be bigger then a gargantuan laviathen?

[torn perch]

People are weird and think everything is political. Just let us kill fish

[wraith crag]

Here's how I see it

Small Fish: Killable with a ramming submersible or a multitool. Could even make a thermal multitool like the thermal knife for fast and instant food

Medium fish (hammerhead size and above): Unkillable with any handheld weapons. May not get DAMAGED by a submarine but will at least react to being rammed, maybe going into hiding or keeping distance from the player as they go to heal

Large fish to Leviathans: Unkillable and unaffected by any handheld tool or submerisble. Can however be distracted or discouraged from approaching if the right tools are used.

Exceptions: Fish that work with others. For example that mesmer fish that works with the marrowbreach to help co-ordinate attacks shouldnt be killable as they provide a dynamic predator/prey interaction that would be a shame to be able to accidentally kill off by ramming them with your sub by accident.

[misty cairn]

is there a way to ask the devs questions

[gaunt bluff]

i wouldnt say either is better than the other as while they both keep the same core mechanics and making you curious but the tone of both games is so different that other than the mentions of rylee/BZ subnautica 2 could stand as its own game rather than just simply being a sequel

[unborn fjord]

You can replay them, they're in the voice log like other pda messages

[winter zenith]

Thank you!! I totally missed it!! 😭🙏

[wanton juniper]

the hydroelectric turbines are cool but I hate how they don't align well with the small currents by the ||Alien Ruins||

[daring rain]

Why do you need to kill that which doesn’t need to be killed?

[weary matrix]

Imagine 4 players attacking a 1 leviathan

[rain flower]

The previous games had the feature. I assume it just hasn't been implemented yet.

[brisk geyser]

Asking again ^^^^

[eager silo]

this chat might as well be getting reprinted by NoA over and over with how much its looping

[molten cosmos]

uhh when ? or do you mean when i was saying native rez seems broken ?
i have made a bunch of ini tweaks for SN2 though

[red onyx]

Just farm using grow beds. Pents + salt are great for nutrient blocks and there are so many ways of getting fiber pulp for water

[candid leaf]

not yet unfortunately

[radiant grail]

At what point will Subnautica fans just start using the Gargantuan Leviathan as a metric system?

[random hinge]

its possible to die in creative by running "myhealth 0" console command

[woeful sparrow]

Me when I think fish should be killable but everyone agreeing with me is a chud 😭 😭 😭 😭 please help i hate these guys

[final yoke]

That's what I thought, I haven't played them in a bit though. Thanks!

[exotic crypt]

I honestly think a thermal tool in this game would actually end up being a side grade rather than a direct upgrade
Primarily due to the recipes that use raw fish

[unborn fjord]

Send it in here, either the community or mods might be able to answer it
a dev might also respond

[wet robin]

the fact you think that its political makes me think you have no idea what "political" even means, please stop getting grok to write your arguments and just refund the game instead of complaining

[mild siren]

in game chats and vc hasnt been implemented yet

[subtle perch]

pushing this out to the devs OH PLEASE HEAR US

[tawdry stirrup]

playing the first game i never really killed or ate too many fish after i got fruits and stuff and farming, also I never felt the need to kill leviathans or anything, and i think its good the devs are forcing people to find other ways to get past hostile sealife and stuff like use the shock biomod, honestly i dont think killing fish should be added (its fine for like small creatures and stuff since you can eat them anyway) but not every game has to cater to the slaying everything mentality

[fringe glen]

I’m all about realism and immersion. If I bonk something with my bonking tool it should react in a predictable and reasonable way to said bonking.

[crimson kindle]

You're the only chud here lmao

[bold basin]

MODS help i think we need some mutes

[polar pasture]

Won’t end until we can finally kill fish and do irreversible damage to the fish population

[queen lantern]

Because clown fish are shell fish, therefore fake fish. Therefore they are heretics that must be extinguished......

And also roadkilling peepers in subnautica 1 was really funy

[jade sluice]

If you read my linked statement about what the devs themselves have stated with regard to their reasoning for not adding weaponry you can see why people hold that opinion.
All you're doing is strawmanning viewpoints and people dude.
#subnautica-2-chat message

[sharp finch]

If any devs are listening could you plz post a 4k render of a waterslug it is difficult to get a good capture in game

[torn perch]

Maybe you can kill the medium with a better knife or multi tool. Just because they can get annoying. Like nibblers killing me in my base well I'm afk. Or hammerheads braking my tadpole

[spare bone]

can we also get official sizes of the leviathans

[wintry lodge]

I hope I wasn't clumped in with the weirdos. I just think the grav traps are essential and that all fish being invincible against vehicles makes the world feel too "gamey" and not like a living ecosystem I am apart of.

[wanton drum]

A hammerhead is literally sitting outside my base waiting to mess up my tadpole the second it leaves. I just want to stab it. 😭

[rare cobalt]

how old is marguerit at this point? she's gotta be like 100. haha

[sturdy yacht]

or maybe the devs just didnt want the players to kill the wildlife? its not that deep

[earnest anvil]

why am I hearing an ominous hum from the void near my base 😭

[prime girder]

Quick question, I'm not sure where better to ask, what counts as 'issues with localisation' under the feedback report in the game?

[minor geyser]

@prime girder Ideas for Subnautica 2. Where can you post them? Post them on our Nolt ( https://subnautica2.nolt.io/ ). See #1497212756674478220 and ⁠#announcements for more information.

[gaunt bluff]

she is plot armor years old

[frozen fog]

||is axum bacteria used for anything but metal farms??? it also doesnt respawn right?||

[autumn escarp]

my bad

[peak iris]

im here for you i too think you should be able to kill fish

[iron egret]

is turbine power capped at 48 per stream? i built 7 turbines in 1 stream and cannot get it over 48 power even after moving transmitter closer to base. any help would be awesome.

[amber turtle]

if you havent crossed the red border then its a good hum 😛

[desert bobcat]

wth is ||axum bacteria||??

[subtle perch]

its bonk or be bonked in these perks

[strange anvil]

Does anyone know where to find the blueprint for the rectangular ceiling light?

[tawdry stirrup]

never in my life have I seen anybody relate not killing fish in a game to politics, i think you are just losing it bro

[oblique cradle]

Could it be capped per power transfer connector thingy ?

[stark jetty]

It is an awesome ride and I am fully in support from here on!

[wraith crag]

Yes but then you remove a dynamic interaction. Nibblers are schooling predators. They hunt in packs. Kill too many, and the fun pack dynamic falls apart due to their not being enough in the world anymore.

[rapid salmon]

to be fair, Subnautica 1 didn’t cater to that (disregarding the torpedos)

even the stalker which you probably were likely to use a knife against in self defense was rather tough, it was made clear “ok, killing is NOT the optimal option”

it’s like, yeah, sure, technically you can kill anything but Subnautica didn’t go out of its way to make it practical to kill everything. killing small fish and occasionally defending yourself in a pinch was the only practical option for the survival knife, and it did that well

[spare ore]

No answer

[eternal pumice]

Im learning theres still a lot of things I havent gotten for our base from this chat

[prisma nimbus]

this sounds super useless

[teal locust]

I guess players dont feel like they are being heard and its common to use these channels to discuss about things players dont like, especially for a EA game which this is

[mellow depot]

Is it possible for new biomes to drop on the road or will they only be added with major story updates?

[polar pasture]

Whether or not it’s political doesn’t matter, the players en masse want to be able to kill fish, so we should be able to

[queen lantern]

My thoughts exactly.

I just wanted vehicular fishslaugher for the tiny fish back. Idk where the "DEI WOKE dev" and "everyone who wants to kill fish are literally Hitler" arguments came from.

[rain flower]

For me it's all about realism and immersion. So devs - please make our characters unpopular, overweight, unattractive, out of shape, and poor.

[jade sluice]

Sorry chud, killing harvesting fish is only allowed to be done by the fabricator!
/j

[frail canopy]

When did the fish slaying conversation start? I dont recall it first being this way but now it is 24/7

[void tartan]

Next question. Where's lithium

[steel fractal]

i like to think Ryley and Marguerit have an extended lifespan due to coming in contact with enzyme 42

[wintry lodge]

Can anyone confirm if the aquariums will return? Best partnof the franchise for me, getting to appreciate the fictional life in different ways.

[polar shell]

not really just wait until the map gets bigger

[red onyx]

|| endgame material found at the edge of the alien powerplant area, where all those greenish yellow puddles are ||

[candid leaf]

oof i feel sorry for u

[green current]

I think we should be able to kill at least the smaller fish

[dry nova]

Has anyone been there?

[ocean shadow]

i kinda hope eventually we will have morr hardpoint attachment things
maybe like a portable jukebox so you can play music like in subnautica BZ

[eternal sage]

They really don’t though. Gimme a break. It’s not even difficult to play the game without this

[rare cobalt]

that's actually a fair assumption i'd think.

[exotic crypt]

Yeah, I think wanting the ability to kill smaller fish is reasonable, since you can already kill them through other methods

[weary matrix]

What's funny to me about the top three is that some people are refunding their money because of the EULA. Imagine people buying a game not for fun or technical reasons, but only for criticism. Steam shouldn't exist, only physical games.

[frozen fog]

||the bacterial cultures that spawn near the alien metal farm in the yellow pools||

[torn perch]

Buff the damage so they are a threat and there is a reason to avoid. Then give us the ability to kill. And tada. It's a fun try Scarry challenge to make your base safe

[final yoke]

No literally. I "finished" the early access and never even saw it lol

[earnest anvil]

I'm not even IN the void but it sounded like that screech the collector makes and now I'm afraid to step outside cause it feels like he's stalking me

[hidden vault]

If i want to play SN2 with high quality i need to spend 4 mouths of my entire salary to buy smth that works as well

[hollow oak]

Bare with me... loooking into it, the chat is moving soo fast and also trying to fix bugs / do work.

[spiral dock]

i think people want the ability to kill what they fear because they want control over it.

[inner spear]

Collector laviathen not scary

[safe rock]

Did you find them all

[amber turtle]

OUH .... thats the hycean ^^

[mortal kettle]

Can we at least be able to cut some parts of Leviathan‘s body to make more various dishes?

[iron egret]

i put 3 transmitters and still capped sadly. ]=. not sure what i'm doing wrong.

[noble lark]

I want them to add something that will actually strike fears in those who go...

[woeful sparrow]

I mean yeah, thats kinda a normal human thing to do, which is why i think they should be allowed to try and fail

[valid dust]

Brother take that up with the u.s. government and inflation not the devs

[tawdry stirrup]

collector sashimi 😋

[steel dawn]

no theres only 2 juvies

[spare ore]

Yessir

[molten cosmos]

hmm
my tweaks should be a net positive for performance so i think you should try them (also fixes some visual issues i found obnoxios)
i dont remember much of anything from our previous convos, but i dont have anything to specifically improve performance at native

[signal hawk]

I had to attach the transmitter to the base body to get it to power the base itself

[golden osprey]

does anyone know where to get a key to load a save from the cloud? I accidentally lost my upgraded scanner, and I have absolutely no desire to craft it again. Please heeeeeeeelp

[polar pasture]

A. It’s the number one recommendations/suggestion on Nolt (or whatever it’s called) and b. It’s not about difficult it’s about immersion

[prisma nimbus]

so i crafted this dandy tool
can i use this on myself like in subnautica 1 now

[oblique cradle]

The game isn't a week old. If they feel ignored............................. I can't help them. Devs rarely reply to direct ideas within weeks...

[wraith crag]

Oh yknow what would be the coolest thing? Yknow how the PDA says that the foureyes are always paired up, and if you see a lone one it could be grieving or experiencing an emotional low point? Imagine finding one, and having the ability to guide it to another lone one, the two pair up, and now that four eyes shows it's emotional intelligence by remembering that you helped it through it's emotional crisis and will try to scare off predators around your base, or if it sees you swimming around it brings you items as thanks. Similar to how octopodes will remember a human that helped them and form very closed and intelligent bonds, including trying to warn humans of threats, asking for help finding food and even attempting to share food with humans

[queen lantern]

That but for mango nibblers.

Batman philosophy of no killing.

[proven horizon]

i can finnaly start the gameee

[candid leaf]

then play on low quality ^_^

[vital yacht]

yo guys how do i find the black hoverthorn?? been trying for 30 mins but no luck

[scarlet anchor]

are you are you coming to the tree🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🔥 🔥 🔥

[red onyx]

Yeah our survivors need to be morbidly obese despite swimming 24/7 and being able to lift metric tons of lead and other heavy metals (while swimming) all the while being able to be modified through adaptations biomods and reprinting

[unique nimbus]

Y’all are the freaky jelly rings intentional or a bug?? 😭

[wide folio]

So when is subnuatica 2 coming to PlayStation

[sullen girder]

Bro all I want is to kill the 3 Hammerheads that swam to my base from ANOTHER BIOME humping my base 🙏

[dark imp]

metal farms

[exotic crypt]

The marrowbreach PDA entry does mention that they can be domesticated too

[earnest anvil]

you're telling me I've been scared a goddamn hycean (oh also do you know if there's any way to get rid of this annoying 2 minutes slowdown)

[harsh veldt]

There are 3, || one is in the cave under the wreckage on the hill a bit south from metal farms||

[fading bear]

I’m too impatient for this but does anyone know if the biomod slots on the left unlock at some point? (I haven’t finished the game so no spoilers if there are any)

[frozen fog]

never its banned from playstation forever and ever you guys dont deserve it

[misty whale]

All I want to do is flatten a nibbler with my tadpole that keeps attacking me while building my base.

[polar shell]

you mean when they hug each other and become super loud i find it funny

[astral crest]

Is there cross-platform? I seem to remember the UI saying it was a thing.

[potent ember]

Everything could be solved with a knife, but people think that having something for defense is equivalent to the extermination of life.

[rain flower]

"swimming 24/7" You can play as a shark?

[iron egret]

thank you! this fixed it. I didn't know you could attach it to the base directly. ❤️

[amber turtle]

hehe 😛 and no .. slow down is necessary .. plenty of strong opinions in this chat 😛

[smoky hatch]

Yep full cross platform support, no accounts or logins required other than the one for the platform you're playing on (like steam or xbox)

[wise python]

pretty sure they unlock in a later update

[fallow wigeon]

Loving the game so far, no complaints

[haughty dove]

where is copper?

[winged path]

[hidden vault]

That's more of a problem in my country than anything else. I actually have a device with an Nvidia chip, but whatever

[eternal pumice]

i have a weaker graphics card or whatever so i play on lower settings & the game is still pretty looking albeit i dont entirely care about graphics for this game as i do for the gameplay itself

[polar pasture]

Let us kill fish please. Survival knife supremacy!!!!!!

[queen lantern]

I was there in the beginning......

First there was calm before the storm then ....sons of the forest.
And now we are here.

[wraith crag]

Taming the Marrowbreach to guard your base like a guard dog. Imagine.

[steel dawn]

just found the third one thx google didnt help at all and was gaslighting me

[desert bobcat]

I wonder what the leviathans would taste like.

[unique nimbus]

No I’m talking about when they start hopping up and down while on a thermal vent

[eternal sage]

That does not make it the most wanted thing by players, though. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[oblique cradle]

They could tease them by releasing it on iOS mobile first..

[spiral dock]

people yearn for the monster hunter

[boreal marsh]

Medium fish should be killable, but it should be a slog. Imagine trying to kill a bear with a knife. Is it possible? Yes. Is it easy? No.

[wide folio]

Damn why the sb 2 chat 2 minutes long

[frail canopy]

Scary 😨 🥶

[smoky hatch]

Nothing to do with me I'm afraid, I just write animation tech. The feedback has absolutely been heard and listened to and people are figuring out what we want to do

[swift basin]

should just get instakilled to prove the point of this thing called the food chain

[weary matrix]

Imagine Subnautica 2 in gaming mobile with Ray Tracing

[ionic beacon]

Will the subnautica series ever release on GOG?

[eager silo]

if we go off food chian logic where metals build up as you go further up the food chain, taking a bite out of a leviathan would probably be way too toxic even for your adapted body

[fading bear]

Alright, I thought that might be the case but I’ve just been so impatient recently😭

[teal locust]

I went to the tree, problem is its so massive and surface isnt exactly something you can climb, as i result i just explored its base a little and that was it, but that tree really is just so massive indeed, easily the largest object on the map and it isnt even close

[misty whale]

this happen to me too. Restarting changed it back to normal

[fallen yoke]

hey devs just wanted to say thank u for yet another beautiful game and i cant wait for what yall have instore for us💚

[prisma nimbus]

These batteries are recharging fast as crap holy
Didn’t think the battery recharger would be that good

[jade sluice]

Long ago Roman soldiers recieved payment in valuable rocks (salt)
Now people recieve payment and spend it on a slightly different valuable rock (silicon)

[sharp finch]

@smoky hatch 👉👈🥺

[amber turtle]

advanced battery needs a buff tho

[subtle perch]

WE WANT YOU IN THE BOARD WITH THE DEVELOPERS these are such amazing ideas, I really wanna see this in game KEEP COOKING OOMF

[polar shell]

sorry mobile with ray tracing that is not possible unless you are on a laptop buddy

[wise python]

grab some oven mitts in preparation then

[daring tinsel]

My wife wants to know where to get one of those

[torn perch]

Batteries in general do

[exotic crypt]

Also, the Flash Slug PDA entry mentions being able to grip it to deter predators

[queen lantern]

Homemade IED 101.

[radiant grail]

That's why everything runs out of battery so fast probably

Subnautica mod that makes small fish invulnerable to vehicle bonk. if fish in SN2 become vehicle bonkable, i hope some kind modder makes a mod like this for me 🙂

[void basin]

Whoever decided to make the area with like 20 titanium resource veins under the ||alien ruins||, I love you

[wraith crag]

Possible? Yes. Plausible? No. That bear is tearing you apart after the first stab. Plus the medium creatures seem to have tanky bodies, especially the marrowbreach and hammerhead. Imagine trying to stab a hamemrhead to death. It's like trying to destroy a tank by poking it with a stick

[desert bobcat]

I can't run it on my computer. It's not compatible with directX 12

[blazing blaze]

you know what this game needs
a beer dispenser hell yeah

[rancid jasper]

Under the world tree

[rocky raven]

would be nice if we could have a flare bundle or something that let us stack up to like 5 flares or something instead of having them take up a lot of inventory space

[harsh gazelle]

no guns, i love guns as much as the next guy but the whole feel of the game and survival and beauty PLEASE keep it with no weapons!!! Love you !!

[weary matrix]

Yeea, and I'll have warm pants when the phone heats up

[random spindle]

Alien ruins seems to be pretty popular

[oblique cradle]

My iPhone would explode.

[lofty frost]

Bro why are you that close to Ťħë Třęē

[polar pasture]

Just give us our survival knife back please and let us kill small fish

[main plover]

Bro got the syndrome

[sick iris]

Especially in the later areas, you wind up going through them so fast

[bright merlin]

one for me in the safe shallows with where i made my|| Metal Farm|| and one at the scientific outpost for when i have to run some errand there

[royal jewel]

Impossible to get anything done lol

[winged path]

I have one in the shallows, one under the || research outpost in the alien ruins || and I plan on making as third in the ||fart place/ metal farms|| bc trhat place looks sick

[spiral dock]

uh oh! someone listened to the sea's call!

[wide folio]

You guys suck at making bases

[spare ore]

Under the life pod lol

[candid leaf]

dont hurt em, itll anger ppl if u hurt fish

[dark imp]

try: plant an electric plant or two

[red onyx]

It legit says when you enter the biome that you should make a base there, it's very much intended since it's a relevant but far location from the start

[indigo bloom]

Is this smiley already known?

[daring tinsel]

time for the icbms into their little nest below

[hollow oak]

Yes, there is a bug here. Sorry! It's being investigated by QA and a fix will come soon.

[signal hawk]

The consensus seems to be "get bullied into a safer zone"

[teal locust]

This is where it gets tricky, aka climbing up it, good luck🫡

[torn perch]

Just let us kill with the multi-tool and give survival knife. And ya, I got no more complaints

[misty whale]

yep

[sturdy yacht]

my guy u are building in their territory complaining about getting attacked😂

[wraith crag]

J.A.R.V.I.S, reset and reprint this man

[normal valve]

just wanna make sure before i do smth i regret.. does the item losing system the same as the other games? keeping all items you had before leaving a base/lifepod?

[gray folio]

Where can I find the Dog Fish (HoundGar)

i hope not😭 its so ugly

guys what do you think about my tiny farm

[low onyx]

guys btw i finished the story in less than a day and found the easter egg aswell

[oblique cradle]

Under Da Treeeeeee. Under Da Treeeeeeee. Darling it's better. Down where it's wetter. Take it from meeeeee. Sorry.,.. I don't know why under the sea popped in my head..

[random hinge]

if you are able to skip getting the pressure adaptation you can be stuck in the intro 0 oxygen state for the whole game, basically making it so you have infinite and cant drown

[coarse walrus]

too tiny make it bigger

[dark imp]

fill it, and it's a lag factory

[hidden vault]

Uh oh, a RTX 5080 is 5 of my mouth salary
Lets play in low so

[boreal marsh]

coul dbe bigger IMO

[toxic blaze]

Could be bigger tbh, its pretty small

[limpid hornet]

Well your hp will also keep slowly dropping tho

[spare ore]

Ty. So I’ll get to finish the game before the first update rolls around lol

[desert bobcat]

||Theres a tar waterfall near the collector leviathan on the side with the lava zone,|| that has one side missing, so you can get stuck inside it if you go behind it it almost softlocked me

[void basin]

Well I hope they keep doing this with other resources, more caverns like this one or the ones that have silver are very very good

[potent ember]

Are you supporting a city?

[polar pasture]

Give us round rooms please!!!

[digital cypress]

Why do so many people who buy Subnautica not understand the purpose of early access?

[winged path]

I'm planning on making bases everywhere because everywhere looks so pretty lol

maybe like observatories just for looks not actually functionality, and admiring the collector before they add base damage

[red onyx]

Hope you're on single player 😭

[tall cape]

Is there a way to make titanium or copper ingots or do u js find them

[mortal solstice]

processor or am i thinking of the wrongthing

[dark imp]

yes.... but late game

[low onyx]

guys i get an average of 150 fps btw

[rain flower]

It's that they think the 'E' in EA stand for 'entitled'.

[wraith crag]

Wha? You're telling me if i build my home next to a territorial species it'll actively try to evict me? Say it aint so!

How? I'm pretty late into the game (I think) but somehow still don't have a recipe for that

[polar pasture]

I will refrain from preaching fish killing for a bit and move onto something else. GIVE US ROUND ROOMS PLEASE!!!!

[limpid hornet]

Processor

[rocky raven]

watch out for the ||collector leviathan|| directly above you

[green hill]

I wonder if theres gonna be the goofy base building items like in the original with the markiplier hull plate etc

[elfin geode]

How is this a link I just used this -#

[subtle escarp]

true but I raise you, staircase room

[pastel moth]

we don't allow small text is all

[solemn oriole]

I feel like beating the first game while holding my breath irl while underwater

[eternal pumice]

how many angel combs (i think thats the name) that gives u the genetic adapations are there available so far? just give me a number n nothing else

[plush vault]

yo guys what the hell do i do if there is no more triolite in my world

[prisma nimbus]

lowk pulling 110+ fps on high only on an rtx 5070 on a 3440 x 1440 monitor

[lofty frost]

How bout big text?

[daring tinsel]

well yeah i have FG on, with reflex on ultra in the driver and it being a SP game for me i dont see a reason not to ngl - no real problems with it

but fair, native is prob half

[humble parcel]

The feedback resonator looks pretty sick ngl

[void basin]

Metal farm is your friend

[eager silo]

Now that I think about it, it’s kind of silly that canonically we are making entire living human clones from sea water but we can’t make edible food or water without other materials

[dark imp]

I believe the next update will add more possibly

[harsh veldt]

it's 4 including intro

[pastel moth]

I would rather you not use big text

[safe rock]

One under this wreck you need to go inside and down. Second pic one just to my right the other behind me you need to go up a few metres and down again as its behind the wall

[earnest anvil]

ya'll don't allow anything bruh I got autowarned because I used all caps cause I was scared

[winged path]

I know, but I don't have the actual recipe for it

[dreamy compass]

The last ||Angel Comb has three juveniles||.

[mortal kettle]

I’m really looking forward to seeing how the pet of Subnautica 2 is gonna look. Maybe multiple kinds?

[polar pasture]

I raise you as many room variants as possible. I want all the room variants. I LOVE ROOM VARIANTS. ROOM VARIANT SUPREMACY.

[low onyx]

guys this is my moonpool for trident

[pastel moth]

well yeah, stop yelling

[golden gust]

I just realise I can go back to the star just swimming

[tribal hare]

holy bloom

[marsh canyon]

I'm not finding the axum wall lamp 😔 does anyone know where it is?

[hidden vault]

i love use capslock

[eternal pumice]

ok thank you just was seeing a small estimate of how much me and my brother have left to go before we're done whats available

[warm mantle]

there was an extremely detrimental bug that happened to my friend yesterday in multiplayer(im host), nothing would work for him, crafting would just put the materials back in his inventory, plants and buildings were unloading, terrain was deformed, restarting pc and validating didnt help, not even when i did it

[atomic swan]

Where is it ?

[wraith crag]

They need to add toilets to this game smh

[dark imp]

Spawn, bottom, north

[plush vault]

yeah but i dont have 1 to put into so im just softlocked?

[vital yacht]

yo where can i find the axum wall lamp? ive checked every axum builing (i.e observatory, powerplant, metal farms)

[humble parcel]

Tadpole pens

[torn perch]

Is there going to be more multiplayer refinement? It get really laggy after 30 minutes

[burnt zenith]

is it normal for the Angel Comb waypoint icon to show up all the time like the Wu icon which i know is glitched or something?

[dark imp]

tadpole pens locked room

[safe rock]

Its always blooming bloom in mine. I see other peoples pics with envy.

[autumn escarp]

you can go into your pda and turn it off

[dreamy compass]

There will be a co-op centric update after EA1.1

[winged path]

you can disable it if u want

[elfin geode]

Oh

[deep jolt]

Who's blackbox do I need to scan to enter the restricted room at the tadpole pens?

[manic mortar]

I wonder if we'll see the ||Tailings and the Axum||

[mortal kettle]

And using players‘ feces as fuel for bioreactor.

[pine blade]

below zero easter egg :0

[slate crest]

First thing I saw when opening the app for the day

[reef vigil]

i try to launch the game but it freezes

[eternal pumice]

You can turn off signals by pressing tab and pressing the signals option, which also lets you change things like your tadpoles + probably other vehicles name & its signal color which is handy in multiplayer

[warm mantle]

shes in the first game too

[dark imp]

So can you eat leviathan poop? Yes.

[candid leaf]

wait really, how ? please tell more ( ah i get it now, going back to sub 1 to check it out)

[dark imp]

she's in SN1 story and voice

[sage oak]

as long as it’s not like bz 😭

[inland sluice]

Honestly why aren't there poop mechanics

[gaunt bluff]

i just watched anthomnias video on the ||"elusive leviathan"|| and ngl im pretty freakin hyped to see this hulking beast in the waters when it gets added

[neon walrus]

how come me and my friend cant hear the objectives tgt? like when he put the battery in the welcome center he heard all the dialogue and i didnt?

[golden gust]

There had been any news about the first update for the game? Or when it could release?

[limpid hornet]

Robot companion

[plush vault]

am i just softlocked if i dont have any more triolite to farm and i dont have a spare one to use in metal farm? if so... what do i do?

[brave iron]

Waiting for unknown worlds to make the crab feces consumable

[autumn escarp]

||look in the mirror||

[signal hawk]

You hear her a few times in degasi survivor recordings in subnautica 1

[dark imp]

look harder, then wait for ea1.1

[stark elk]

..until then, you can just smear your face with it :)

[eager silo]

Spy jetocaris

[bronze python]

Yesterday had a weird bug with my game and confused me heavily

[sick iris]

convert them to biofuel, convert biofuel to food xD

[torn perch]

I want to be able to build up better. Like having those long vertical tunnels. It's hard to build vertical

[cedar badger]

It looks to almost be peaceful like a sort of ethereal beast

[dire badger]

any tips on how to scan the ||"shiver leviathan"||?

[finite whale]

Dodge

[pine blade]

but in belwo zero you can see she first

[granite vector]

Carrying a portable locker I bumped my tadpole and sent it 3k meters away

[sage oak]

they should have stairs or tubes that go up instead of just ladders this time🙏 for bases

[inland sluice]

The players demand poop mechanics

[raw barn]

hell yeah

[hard orbit]

where do i find the battery charger this is pain to find 😭

[slate meadow]

Time to swim buddy

[uneven ginkgo]

Honestly, given the whole "find an interesting way to die" thing, I'm surprised we can't just yeet ourselves or our friends into the bio reactor and just reprint.

[winged path]

when u are in the map, it can't hurt you. So just bait it, near the edge and u have to be really close to scan it like inside its mouth

[polar pasture]

Room variants please, round rooms, stair rooms, better multistories, all the rooms. Please gives us better ways to customize moon pools as well

[lost geode]

|| i got the distance from earth pda thing, what do i do to get the screen where it says u did all there was to do in early access ||

[dark imp]

inside a couple wrecks / bunkers
