They’re a lot better in BZ

Wait

And I’m sooooo glad we don’t have power draw in our lifepod

Drop pod whatever

Can you put solar panels on large rooms

broken badge
#

Sure

Can flowering spores be farmed at base, or do I have to go and get some every time i need them?

stoic surge
broken badge
#

Although starting out I usually stick a platform next to my big room and put solar on it, since I know eventually I’ll probably add another room on top of the first one

broken badge
#

And the platform provides a nice place for my growbeds

Yep, it will show a little blue 'beam' to let you know it connects

#

The nuclear reactor is good tho I have two bases and the old nuclear reactor isn't stopping

#

How long does a reactor thing last for

stoic surge
modest pagoda
#

its pretty good if you need to power a singular water filtration machine

vivid wave
#

That reminds me I found a water filter scanned it didn't save and I accidentally unplugged my xbox

broken badge
#

Nuclear is great in this game, the only downside to nuclear imo is it’s a little noisy but I just keep it away from my main area I’ll be in

stoic surge
# vivid wave Wdym

I don't like how many ingredients it takes, it's noisy as all heck, and the fuel rods are a limited quantity

broken badge
#

You get so many rods for free tho

stoic surge
#

Just about anything else is better

broken badge
#

I’d never run out of rods on this game lol

stoic surge
#

IMO

vivid wave
broken badge
#

But there’s plenty of options for power

#

You can grow fish or plants for bio, do thermal, solar is good in most places, and there’s nuclear if you want

#

Do vent plants make sounds

does anyone know why my bz wont launch? i just bought it on steam and when i click play nothing even comes up and then steam stops telling me that im playing it like it crashed

could be the update messing with stuff

i know after they gave a new update the game has had some issues

can you not ||go to outpost zero at the start of the game anymore? i can't seem to find the entrance or is it just me being lost||

#

||nvm it was me being lost lol||

#

Hi, im too scared to play this game. Help me, when i hear squidshark or chelicerate i panicc

bold monolith
#

You could switch to custom mode and make them non aggressive.

marble cradle
#

how do i get the ||the AL-AN room in outpost zero's area|| to show

#

it just vanished after the update

#

or is it more of an add-on?

bold monolith
#

Screenshot?

marble cradle
#

its just empty besides like 2 things

#

||phasegate|| and some random ice

bold monolith
#

Which platform?

#

Be specific if you are on PC.

marble cradle
#

switch

#

it happened after the dock was added

#

idk if im the only one with the problem or if i just have bad luck

bold monolith
#

That's problematic indeed.

marble cradle
#

idk if i did something to cause it or if the dock update caused it

bold monolith
#

I know the ending base is in the batch and not in a scene anymore.

#

But I don't remember when it was changed.

#

Ok, I see there was a batch upgrade for this specific area.

#

In the latest update.

#

So it was probably in this update.

worthy remnant
marble cradle
#

anything i can do to get the area back?

bold monolith
#

Yes the patch is on every platform.

bold monolith
#

We'll investigate.

#

If you want to see the ending you could make a custom game, with some checkbox you just have to go in the sanctuary, then build Al-An without any oxygen, technology requirement and ingredient requirement.

#

Your issue won't appear in new saves.

marble cradle
#

i see it showing up on my creative world just not my survival one

bold monolith
#

That's expected yes.

marble cradle
#

do i even get an achivement for the ending?

bold monolith
#

No.

#

Not in creative nor custom game.

marble cradle
#

so no point in keeping them on?

bold monolith
#

But at least you can see it.

#

In creative the story is disabled.

#

So if you just want to see the ending, create a custom game with the story.

#

But you won't have the achievement.

#

If you want the achievement there are two possibilities. First, we see that the issue is general and there is an issue with the batch upgrades on Switch, so the issue will be fixed.

#

Second, it is not a general issue, so if you want to see the ending and still get the achievement you would have to create a new save.

marble cradle
#

wouldn't i have to redo everything in the new save?

#

even custom didn't show it

bold monolith
#

If you make a custom game you can check no oxygen, you can set up an invincibility and you can uncheck technology requires power, technology requires blueprint, and the one that disables the need for the ingredients.

#

So you just have to go to the sanctuary, go build Al-An and get to the ending.

marble cradle
#

but i already did it

#

just the room for the rest of it doesn't show

bold monolith
#

I know.

#

I'll saying that if you want to see the ending, you have to do that.

marble cradle
#

again?

bold monolith
#

Because it won't show in that save.

#

But if you use the custom mode you don't have to do the entire thing.

#

Like finding Al-An parts, etc.

marble cradle
#

so make a new save and put custom on?

bold monolith
#

Create a new save using the custom mode.

marble cradle
#

ah i see

bold monolith
#

Then it's just go to sanctuary, go to the fabricator base, build Al-An, go to outpost zero, the base will be there since it's a new save.

marble cradle
#

and the creature agression does it apply to leviathans?

bold monolith
#

Yes.

stoic surge
#

Ah, so dark

stoic surge
# bold monolith Yes.

I just made my way to the place you guys were speaking of, the force field is till up so I can't look too closely, but it looks what I can see is fully loaded in -- [I'm using a custom game mode converted from freedom mode on Switch]

bold monolith
#

I meant the update.

#

Before 2.0, did you go around there?

stoic surge
#

I did go to outpost zero, but not into the nearby cave

bold monolith
#

Ok, thanks.

stoic surge
#

I just did that this morning

bold monolith
#

Creating a save on the previous update wouldn't be the only step, you would have to be around there and save in this state for the issue to happen eventually in the new update.

#

Because when you're around, the base is saved in the save slot.

stoic surge
#

Ah, I see

bold monolith
#

So when the upgrade happens, we ask the game to remove that file.

#

Here the player didn't have that file removed.

stoic surge
#

On a different note, I'd like to start a petition to distribute large lead deposits in sector zero

#

I miss them alot

The place with the goods you need is down a hole amid a circle of crystal formations

What are you looking for?

I recommend ||outpost zero||, then ||phi robotics||

To the first, go NE from your drop pod, there's a passage under the ice leading north, then up upon the land, going north

It's the one on the map with the big Zero

Quick question, what's the best fish, and the best plant, as bio fuel?

stoic surge
wooden escarp
stoic surge
#

True, altho the marble melons can't be had until later in game, but the peppers can be grabbed up from the beginning

autumn ice
#

So I just did a bit of Googling and I found this:

  • Root Pustule provides ultimately the highest power per space, but not farmable. (700/slot)
  • Artic Peeper / Triops are the best fish that can be bred in a containment. (350/slot)
  • Gel Sack is the best plant that can be grown in a grow bed. (245/slot)
stoic surge
#

There could be, but as often as I pass by my bioreactor it's not a problem to top it up

autumn ice
#

Gel Sack is tedious, going out and back in... what kinda anti-lazy person does that? Lol

stoic surge
wooden escarp
#

I have been using lantern fruit because they grow like crazy, but I bet the peppers are more efficient.

stoic surge
autumn ice
#

So apparently Preston's fruit (aka Mutfruit from Fallout) has better power per slot than pepper, but you have to do some amazing acrobatics to fetch the fruit off the branch lol

stoic surge
autumn ice
#

Yeah, do pepper, it's just easier.

stoic surge
#

I meant the preston fruit, but yes

Anything else that's awesome to have? I remember in OG Subnautica, I had brain coral, and 4 of the 5 things you need for that 'one thing', you know.

stoic surge
#

Oh yeah, for outside your base, you might also get the 'antenna' plants

autumn ice
#

Is it any good?

stoic surge
#

The fruit isn't plantable, but if you knife the leaves below it, those can be planted, and the fruits regrow

broken badge
#

They shouldn’t

#

If they’re going for attacking something else, and your base is in the way, I suppose it’s possible the base could take some incidental damage but it would be rare

primal sail

i wonder if they will add the stasis rifle and the ultra glide fins to below zero someday

Stasis rifle isn’t coming back.

Idk what the story was with the ultra glide fins but given at this point they’re not in the game it’s a safe bet they never will be

primal sail
#

unfortunate. especially the stasis rifle was useful for scanning and escaping

worldly holly
#

why isnt the power source extending?

tepid hill
#

It doesn't need to. It's already directly connected to your base. It only goes through the extender if there's no base in range

worldly holly
tepid hill
#

Yeah, and since it's directly underneath a base room, it doesn't need to use the extender.

worldly holly
#

do i need to remind you that the large room is unpowered without extender?

Hmmmmm

May I ask how the upgrades were lost?

latent mantle

Was the prawn suit destroyed?

This morning, I opened up the game, went to go drill something, and noticed that it had both default arms, instead of 1 drill arm like it should have last night

maybe your game didn't save properly?

The game sometimes takes a little bit to fully finish saving

Maybe you might have left the game before it was done

Well in the next one you might play the two sisters for multiplayer

Which sisters? Because in BZ one of the sisters is uh, not available

well, unfortunately I knew most of the stuff about the game before playing it so it wasn't nearly as hard as it would've been had I gone in blind, but after playing BZ I can definitely say that it's easier to progress in the story compared to the first game

there may not even be a 3rd Subnautica game, I'm pretty sure I heard that it was just gonna be another game by Unknown Worlds, in fact one did come out called MoonBreaker that's nothing like Subnautica, actually it looks more like a mobile game lol

Its either they make more and more updates for bz or make another one also making more updates dont get them more money

my guess is that they'll make another game that's similar to Subnautica but not actually part of the series, maybe something like Natural Selection
