below-zero-chat

[eternal garnet]

nearly

[leaden nexus]

i mean its posible

but only in like 2 biomes

the underneath of the lillies and maybe the deep twisty

not the one with with the thermal things

i cant think of any other open-enough biomes besides the deadzone

[broken badge]

There’s a problem rn, they’re working on it, with color banding. I haven’t played much, because I only just recently got a PS5 myself, but it seems to run well
Just wanted to let you know they are addressing the color banding issue (mostly noticeable as lighting changes)

[carmine bobcat]

Oh gotcha thank you

[quartz arch]

@eternal garnet you need an award. I see you here everyday giving tips and helping people 👍

[bold monolith]

@tepid hill Having the same consequence doesn't necessary mean it's the same cause.

Do you have any ion powercell?

[tepid hill]

Nope

[bold monolith]

A Seatruck docking module?

[tepid hill]

Yes, but it wasn’t connected either time

Scratch that, it was connected the first time, but not the second

[bold monolith]

Was it inside a Seatruck dock?

[tepid hill]

The first time, yes, the second time, no

[bold monolith]

Ok, thanks.

[tepid hill]

The second time it wasn’t in a moonpool either

Also, the upgrade menu was blank in the same way both times

If the issue happens again, I’ll attach a screenshot with a more detailed bug report

[bold monolith]

What is important is not the consequence, but what you did before you saved the first time.

The upgrades that aren't displayed is a consequence, and it happens if the game can't deserialize something on the Prawn Suit.

That part doesn't interest me.

[normal kelp]

This is the first leviathan I’ve killed

[stoic surge]

My first was a squidshark -- but he may have respawned

[next current]

•__•

[desert orchid]

Still not seeing the update 😦

[carmine bobcat]

Where do I craft the ||architechs body?||

What is it?

[eternal garnet]

Go to where you found organs (very deep), but keep going east

Custom game mode, find it below Creative in the list

[carmine bobcat]

Where I found the skeleton?

[eternal garnet]

no

[carmine bobcat]

Picture

[eternal garnet]

Oh if you don't have 3 body parts, there's no reason to go there

[carmine bobcat]

Please

[carmine bobcat]

Oh wait I only have the skeleton structure unlocked

So I just keep playing till i unlock the other 2?

[eternal garnet]

yep

[carmine bobcat]

Oh okay got it thanks

[eternal garnet]

You can also do Marge's and Sams storylines

[carmine bobcat]

What

[eternal garnet]

Marge is the pilot. I think you know Sam

[carmine bobcat]

I havent played in ages

I forgot, explain i know, i just forgot the names

[eternal garnet]

Might be worth starting over

[carmine bobcat]

Why

[eternal garnet]

Sam is your sister, the reason you came

[carmine bobcat]

Oh yeah I know that I just forgot My sisters name

She used to work here and she disappeared, yeah I know just forgot her name LOL

Marge was? Pilot

[earnest yacht]

I'll let people know, thanks!

[earnest fulcrum]

Obraxis Prime is that you?

[royal ether]

hooray, I just beat Below Zero

[eternal garnet]

[royal ether]

my only thought is, why does is the move items in the inventory button left click and not right click like in the original

[modest pagoda]

Because left click was consume in the original, and people would mistakenly eat or drink a lot of things, but they fixed it here

[royal ether]

fair

I wish there was an option to at least change it back

also I felt that the "Giga size leviathan in final area" was done better in BZ in the original (I prefer the sea dragon, but it's just too easy to avoid in my opinion)

[modest pagoda]

and it clips through the terrian like its swimming through water

[royal ether]

the ||shadow leviathan|| is actually a real threat at least in the ||fabricator caverns||

[modest pagoda]

unless you have the perimeter defense

[royal ether]

true, but I used the prawn suit with double grapple hooks

[rocky sigil]

dual grapple arms?

[royal ether]

yes

[rocky sigil]

1 isnt enough?

[modest pagoda]

spiderman theme starts playing

[rocky sigil]

hi cam

[jolly basin]

That’s a good idea actually

[modest pagoda]

hello boss

[jolly basin]

Crafting a second grappling arm now

[royal ether]

^

I'm pretty sure the grapple arms were nerfed in BZ, but you can move faster than even the seamoth if you use them both correctly in the original

which is why I view the seamoth as obsolete once you get a prawn suit with two grapple arms

[broken badge]

You can change your bindings

[royal ether]

wdym

[broken badge]

Like I use bumper buttons on controller to move back and forth between hotbar instead of using dpad

You can change what you use for your controls

[royal ether]

oh

[rocky sigil]

hi shadow

[rocky sigil]

for which game?

[jolly basin]

I use a grapple arm mod for that

[royal ether]

seamoth isn't in bz

[rocky sigil]

why are you in bz chat then

[jolly basin]

Because it’s about BZ Grapple Arm

[modest pagoda]

yes it is

[jolly basin]

Barely, not intended for normal use during gameplay

[rocky sigil]

wouldnt that be about #subnautica-chat

[rocky sigil]

ah

[royal ether]

it's called a conversation leads to another topic eventually

[rocky sigil]

fair

[royal ether]

wait, wdym?

[modest pagoda]

its still in the game though

[broken badge]

If people are talking about both games, then this is the right place to have that conversation

Keeps spoilers out of Subnautica chat

[rocky sigil]

i thought it was entirely sn1 chat, sorry

[broken badge]

It’s ok

[royal ether]

if it's something you aren't supposed to obtain, then it doesn't count in my opinion

[jolly basin]

I can say the same about the Phasegate, Sea emperor, med kit fabricator, but none of that is relevant to the conversation, like you mentioning the existence of the seamoth in bz

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[stoic surge]

The Seamoth was a great little sub, but the Seatruck is the more practical in sector zero

[modest pagoda]

we were talking about the seamoth, and its a cool easter egg that you can spawn it in with commands, all I was saying

[stoic surge]

I tried that, before the command menu was removed from Switch version

It was an untextured mess tho

[broken badge]

It’s blinding as snow in full sun
Because it has no texture or something to it
I’ve never spawned one in myself but I’ve seen pics of it before

[stoic surge]

For some reason, the texture appeared when the power cell was removed, but then it's not usable?

[broken badge]

No idea, never tried it

[stoic surge]

I like the Seatruck better anyway, being modular is awesome

I would LOVE to see some kind of charger added in for the Seatruck, like the Seamoth's solar charger, or even a thermal one

But until that comes along, the new Seatruck dock is great, I built one right away after the update

It took a minute to figure out the angle of the dangle, but I got it installed and usable

[broken badge]

It’s a bit finicky I noticed

I haven’t tried it yet in release build, but I did try it on an experimental version

[stoic surge]

I also kinda forgot how much integrity it subtracts, my base was sooo leaky

[broken badge]

Oh how much I wonder

I don’t even know the recipe😂

It wasn’t finalized last time I looked

[stoic surge]

I was too busy getting sprayed in the face to read it

[broken badge]

Lol

I’m guessing some enameled glass

[stoic surge]

One bulkhead and 4 reinforcements got it stitched up tho [large room base]

[vapid kestrel]

Not sure why the area where you are actually able to dock is so far in the tube tbh, thought autopilot would kick in a lot sooner

[stoic surge]

Yeah, I'm surprised I haven't shattered it yet

[broken badge]

I think it’s to allow for several modules of length if I’m understanding correctly

Most people they found have 3-4 modules attached iirc

[vapid kestrel]

(I’m one of those people)

Wouldn’t it be possible for all the modules to be sucked in with the seatruck too?

Like when you are coming out of it you are pushed all the way out

[stoic surge]

It's kinda weird, but I still like it more than the old moonpool

[vapid kestrel]

Certainly better, just a little finicky

[stoic surge]

Like anything new, it takes some practice

The automatic repair of the cab is a great feature too

It's a good thing too, I named it 'the CRUSHER' for a reason!

Brinewings beware

[vapid kestrel]

Have you considered increasing damage to 10x

[buoyant kiln]

I wish the devs would of had a "Resource Spawn modifer' slider for custom game stuff.

[next current]

I wish the devs added an "increase resources for recipes" slider for custom game atuff.

[barren atlas]

you have to combine the boost jump and grapple for faster land travel

and also when it attacks you keep running till you find a corridor or you can hear the end of the attack sequence

don’t go in the tunnels, it’s extremely compromising and you will get attacked down there

the tunnels were “made” by the ice worms

so you will have an encounter down there

good

[worthy remnant]

thank u

[barren atlas]

cool

[lilac wraith]

not my brightest idea trying to take a sea truck down a cave a prawn barely got out of

[light saddle]

how do i get to the ||frozen leviathan|| without 98k ||snow stalkers|| screwing me over

[lilac wraith]

I'd hold off till you get a prawn since it makes out of water travel a million times easier

[light saddle]

i have a prawn

and i just got all the fragments for the docking module

just need a plasteel ingot

[lilac wraith]

||I found mine by accident after using the prawns grapple arm to go over the world border and wanderd around till I fell ontop of it||

[light saddle]

funny thing, after going out of the deep purple vents, a chelicerate tried to eat my seatruck but i zapped him and he just went away

[lilac wraith]

Then it's easy, just gotta walk to it, the ||snow stalkers|| can't do anything

[light saddle]

💀

[light saddle]

i'm planning on using the docking module so i can get to ||glacial basin|| without using any of my prawn's battery life

can anyone tell me how this grandma managed to kill a reaper

[lilac wraith]

||did you not play the first game? She stabbed it a bunch till it stopped moving||

[light saddle]

||i did, but i had to use invisible cheat to just go around one||

brb

[lilac wraith]

||Leviathans are pretty easy to kill once you get the grapple and drill arms for the prawn, just latch on and drill away, for below zero the sea trucks perimeter defense can quickly get one off if it tries to eat your truck||

I'm actually about to go kill one right now

[light saddle]

yeah i do that a lot (the seatruck one)

i abducted 11 penguins and stuffed them in an aquarium with no food source at all

[lilac wraith]

I need to abduct a penguin

[lilac wraith]

Also they have nowhere to surface for air

[light saddle]

yes

[wraith beacon]

my software closed because a error occured

and the last time i saved was 4 hours ago

[lilac wraith]

Rip

[light saddle]

thanks for reminding me to save

[wraith beacon]

np

[lilac wraith]

I save before doing something stupid, so every 5 minutes or so

[light saddle]

i have acquired docking module

time to commit snow stalker abuse

time to bite them back for biting me

[jolly basin]

Dondoit

[lilac wraith]

oh, hello there

[light saddle]

i dont think hes okay

[lilac wraith]

He's napping

[light saddle]

do they respawn if i kill thme

[light saddle]

do they respawn when i kill them

[lilac wraith]

I think so yea

Try killing all of them to make sure

[lucid raft]

howcome my seaglide cant use its map in the glacial bay?

[undone jacinth]

u will have to spoiler that probably

cause that doesnt happen in the early stages of the game

and I have something for yall

||when I first played the game, I accidentally stumbled upon crystal caverns, the end of the game but I thought it was just a random place so I didnt care much abt it till I learned that u finish the game at there and u were able to find architect organs which is to build al-an's body||

[rocky sigil]

okay

thats what everyone does

[sand basin]

Make a room only for Fevered Peppers and ||Preston’s plants||

[undone jacinth]

||never heard of Preston's plants, tell me more||

[rocky sigil]

play the game

[undone jacinth]

I finished it 3 times

finishing it again rn

and never heard of it

[rocky sigil]

you didnt do margs story?

[undone jacinth]

well I met with margeruit everytime

[rocky sigil]

so you didnt do it

[undone jacinth]

when I was off to finish it

[undone jacinth]

yeah

only met

[rocky sigil]

so you did not do the story

[undone jacinth]

nope

never even heard lmao 💀

[rocky sigil]

hmmmm

did you do the story?

[undone jacinth]

now u are just messing with me

I already said no

[rocky sigil]

because the pings are annoying

[undone jacinth]

how is a red circle with a "1" on it messes with you

I still dont get it

[rocky sigil]

what?

[rocky sigil]

hmmmmmm?

[undone jacinth]

"pings are annoying" you said, how does a red circle with "1" on it messes with you

[rocky sigil]

yes

[rocky sigil]

quite curious

[undone jacinth]

well it is not annoying for me

ping me all u want

[rocky sigil]

lol

you have one hell of an ego

[rocky sigil]

tiring work

[undone jacinth]

wha?

[light saddle]

bro i think i killed all existing snow stalkers

[undone jacinth]

subnautica below zero's soundtrack "||deep blue||" is one of my personal favorites

[undone jacinth]

for?

finish the game?

[rocky sigil]

what do you need help with?

[undone jacinth]

yup, and find ||the fabrication facility, if u see red crystals ur on the right way, and make al-an's body||

||then meet al-an at the phase gate||

||get mk3 for seatruck and get mk2 for prawn, u can find kyanite at crystal caverns||

||yes there is, shadow leviathan is there||

[light saddle]

how long is 1 day in subnautica?

dang

i put 13 eggs in a single alien containment

3 kinds of eggs

[undone jacinth]

it roams all around the ||crystal caverns||

so doesnt matter the depth

they also roam around the ||red crystal caverns||, two of them

[light saddle]

egg update

[undone jacinth]

so better take the ||seatruck perimeter defense upgrade|| with you

[jolly basin]

If you could, what items (or vehicles) in the game would you make cheaper to craft?

[rocky sigil]

seatruck

[stoic surge]

The recipes seem fairly reasonable, but I do wish the large lead deposits were still with us

[carmine bobcat]

To find the organs am I supposed to go inside 1 of these green caves?

Cant find anything deeper than that

[stoic surge]

I think it will have a gate at the entrance, and air inside, so if you see that, that's the place

[carmine bobcat]

i dont know where that is tho

ok ima explore from the top again

How deep is the entrance?

[stoic surge]

Did you start from the ||circle of large purple crystals||?

[carmine bobcat]

no?

[stoic surge]

Then that might not be the place

[carmine bobcat]

Im here rn thats the entrance of this gaint cave, behind me is the purple biome where the seabase is

[outer hemlock]

spoiler alerts, bud

[jolly basin]

That's on my To-do when I get good at modding list btw

Re adding the removed large resource deposits

Like Lead, Lithium, and Magnetite deposits

[stoic surge]

When you enter from there, you'll want to go north a bit, then start heading eastward, you're looking for a ||circular arrangement of the big crystals|| and then go down in the middle

[carmine bobcat]

ok goin north

[jolly basin]

Someone has already added resource deposits that were removed into SN back into SN using SMLHelper so I need to follow along with what they coded and I'll be set

[stoic surge]

Lithium and magnetites aren't too hard to get tho, but sounds like it could be helpful

[jolly basin]

Lead, Lithium, Magnetite, Nickel, Salt, and Uraninite are all removed in BZ

But I'd say the most useful are the first three, which is why I'd like to work on adding them back

[outer hemlock]

@carmine bobcat add a spoiler alert to your messages if they include content late into the game (very deep areas, story-related content)

[carmine bobcat]

ok

[outer hemlock]

👍

[acoustic badge]

bye bye sea truck

[stoic surge]

Hope you saved recently

[carmine bobcat]

I got jumpscared rn

💀 He didnt even make a noise

[stoic surge]

Sure looks like it, well done

Oh, it's gone?

[carmine bobcat]

I deleted it

Bc i found it out myself xD

It looks soo cool here 😳

Screenshot for my seatruck sleeper pic

[rocky sigil]

game has been out for like 3 years now

[carmine bobcat]

I only got the chance to play it now 😭

[outer hemlock]

change the chat rules then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rocky sigil]

at player discretion

[carmine bobcat]

Less goo

[outer hemlock]

congrats man

[carmine bobcat]

Will there be a 3rd game after below zero?

[rocky sigil]

woah when was architect organs a stove

[rocky sigil]

yes

[carmine bobcat]

Less go

[acoustic badge]

i didnt

[stoic surge]

RIP your Seatruck, dude

[carmine bobcat]

||Now I need to find some random facility 💀 💀||

[jolly basin]

The next game will be in the subnautica universe but the meaning of that could vary a lot
Because I believe they consider some of their other games to be apart of it even though they not a subnautica title, or share much likeness to sn1 and bz

[stoic surge]

Make sure to gather the needed materials before you go

[carmine bobcat]

To craft everything?

[stoic surge]

To craft the 3 bits, yes

[carmine bobcat]

I should have everything 🙂

[stoic surge]

NS 1&2 are the same universe, also

[carmine bobcat]

||And this AI sounds like its gonna do a very sus imposter move after i build it 💀 💀 💀 (dont spoil me)||

[rocky sigil]

4546a supposedly

[stoic surge]

Only the Devs know for sure

[carmine bobcat]

xD

[rocky sigil]

no one knows

[carmine bobcat]

Is it going to be another underwater subnautica like below zero or a completly other game?

[rocky sigil]

no clue

[jolly basin]

"no one knows" as just stated

[carmine bobcat]

Oh ok

[rocky sigil]

not sure its even in planning phase

[jolly basin]

lmfao i kid you not i totally saw bart simpson in your profile picture

[rocky sigil]

they're hiring people

[carmine bobcat]

💀

"Windows folder"

[rocky sigil]

thats as far as they've gone (i think, i havent been up to date with any news regarding it)

[stoic surge]

As liked as the two Subnautica games have been, the Devs would be NUTS to not make a third title

[carmine bobcat]

💀

[carmine bobcat]

Idk how much hype there was when below 0 released but I know the 1st one was seen everywhere

And me at the time did not understand 1 thing in this game, watched YT -> got spoiled, wanted to try the game and realised i needed to pay for some reason even tho i had the game

Now I have gamepass and playing below 0

[stoic surge]

I first found out about Subnautica when I saw one of my daughters playing it, and I thought, that looks fun

[carmine bobcat]

🙂

[deep kettle]

What they have mentioned so far is that they are hiring people for a new game and they announced their engine for it.

[rocky sigil]

knew i was missing something

[stoic surge]

Didn't they say it would be built with 'Unreal 5'?

[carmine bobcat]

When I tried it I was still in the mindset of other games that tell EVERYTHING with markers and questlines. I didnt even knew what to do xD

I hope my macbook will be able to run it 😭

[deep kettle]

I don't know if they specifically mentioned UE5 or UE4.

[stoic surge]

I think it said 5, but not sure -- Either way, a step up from Unity, yes?

[carmine bobcat]

My mac can run the below zero so I hope i can still play the new 1

[rocky sigil]

by the time they add the first pixel youll be 1000 years old

better be patient

[carmine bobcat]

💀

[deep kettle]

I mean, Unity is just a tool after all you can use. But UE5 added some great stuff for open world games compared to Unity.

But then again, Subnautica uses a ton of custom stuff. So not sure what their plans are.

[rocky sigil]

thanks for the info thom

[carmine bobcat]

I wanted to look for the exit and what is this? 💀

red sus

Looks like lego 💀 💀 💀

[rocky sigil]

who left there legos on the floor!

[light parrot]

Red is deeper instead of getting out, important stuff there eventually!

[carmine bobcat]

💀

[rocky sigil]

just phase through the roof

[carmine bobcat]

Is there the facility that im looking for?

[rocky sigil]

thats an easy way to get out

[stoic surge]

Behold, the mighty loot of the deep

[carmine bobcat]

Ok there is

[rocky sigil]

silver galore

[jolly basin]

Unless supported specifically by the devs (eg. ark, ue4, supports mods via workshop), won't modding be awful to work on UE4/5?

Should be marking that as a spoiler

[stoic surge]

As I play on my Switch, no mods are even possible, so I won't miss the modding anyway

[carmine bobcat]

i forgor sry

[deep kettle]

You can mod Unreal games, but it's for sure not as easy as with Unity games. I'm not sure what the devs plan, but if not for official support it's probably going to take a good bit of effort for people to make things.

[jolly basin]

I still struggle to find that place

[carmine bobcat]

Ohh bruh I thought i would just get the crafting station 💀 but now i need to get the needed items from my base to here

[deep kettle]

I mean it's not just Switch, essentially most consoles in a nutshell :p

[carmine bobcat]

💀

[deep kettle]

Or they are stripped down versions usually, I think there are a couple of games on Xbox or something who have it? But then not in the way you would normally have it.

[carmine bobcat]

Is switch subnautica 60 or 30fps?

[deep kettle]

Target is 30fps for both games.

[carmine bobcat]

ouf

[rocky sigil]

fps is 15

[carmine bobcat]

i tried it now 30fps is playable for me

[carmine bobcat]

💀 rip

My macbook also cant handle rly high fps i get about: 40-55

1080p medium graphics

Are the switch graphics atleast good?

[deep kettle]

I mean it's a Switch, you won't be getting regular consoles/PC quality graphics for it. So depends on your definition of what looks good I guess 😛

[carmine bobcat]

Im comparing it a little to apex

apex is unplayable trash on switch

[deep kettle]

I don't own a Switch, so not sure.

[carmine bobcat]

ok

my friend has 1

[stoic surge]

Sample video, from my Switch -- Me, playing with a fish

[carmine bobcat]

Doesnt look bad!

[deep kettle]

Kaveta holding fish hostage confirmed.

[carmine bobcat]

What res is it tho?

[deep kettle]

Below Zero's resolution is a bit downscaled.

[rocky sigil]

symbiotes are coming for you

[stoic surge]

Nah, he just got himself wedged after I released him

[deep kettle]

Subnautica is I believe the standard resolution? (not 100% sure.)

[carmine bobcat]

My macbook is struggeling to cool itself even with full blast xD

[rocky sigil]

my my

what a great laptop

[carmine bobcat]

My record was 94°

Fans forgor to turn on for some reason

And i was wondering why it was a little laggy

Checked taskmgr 94° 💀

[rocky sigil]

bro

have you tried it off and back on again?

[carmine bobcat]

Yes

💀

But it is playable

I mean music + headset i cant hear much so its good 🙂

I cant imagine macbook air with no fan tho (yes if u didnt know macbook air doesnt have fans)

It would just silently die inside 💀

[light saddle]

i have very sad news

my seatruck has been sacrificed to save my prawn suit

[deep kettle]

😦

[worthy remnant]

what wiill be the next update?

[pulsar trench]

where is the best place to find lithium?

[jolly basin]

Purple Vents

[pulsar trench]

Isn't that where the chelicerate is?

[jolly basin]

Maybe further out? There's a shallow and deep area to the purple vents

[pulsar trench]

ok

Thanks

[pulsar trench]

What is the most efficient way to power a base?

mine is in the shallow twisty bridges

right now i have 3 solar panels and a bioreactor

[jolly basin]

Thermal is usually my favourite but your in shallow twisty bridges, so solar panels and and a bioreactor like you said (if you can keep it filled up)

[silk canopy]

The most efficient is definitely thermal energy

Is the one which is continuosly giving you energy, all the other types of energy not

[carmine bobcat]

where do i find magnetite in the best way possible?

[broken badge]

Down where the ||cotton anemones place is|| or more late game, down in the ||purple crystal caverns||

There’s a little bit that can be found on land as well. Some under one of the big rooms at ||Phi Robotics||

[carmine bobcat]

alr ty

[lucid raft]

||what pda tells me where the cure to the frozen leviathan kharaa is? i kinda dont wanna use a tutorial is their any indiciations?||

[slender sequoia]

how do i get lithium effectively in below zero? i've been attacked by a ||giant red fish-lobster guy|| many times now

[lucid raft]

purple vents is the best location just dont go to far

its everywhere on the floor just stay near delta islandish

[sly prism]

Try looking around the ||precursor artefacts||

[slender sequoia]

what are those?

[sly prism]

When playing the game, pay attention to what Al-an says as he directs you to the scannable artefacts. It will take time though

[slender sequoia]

yeah i found one of them, then it says to find an ||ancient body thing||, except it's apparently really deep down, and i don't know where to get prawn suit upgrades

[sly prism]

You need to look for, find and scan the fragments in order to unlock them, explore the map and keep an eye out. That is all I can say about it,

I'm sure these guys can point you in the right direction, I cannot remember where they are

[carmine bobcat]

I have finished the game, holy sheesh never seen such an epic ending

😎

[sly prism]

I am close to the end but have decided to build a base in every biome before I end the game

[carmine bobcat]

xD

I only have 1 base

[sly prism]

I have a lovely base in the ||frost Acacia biome near the frozen Leviathan||

[carmine bobcat]

Finished the game in 28h

Amazing

[sly prism]

Impressive

[silk canopy]

I finished it in 22h 😎

[carmine bobcat]

😳

[stoic surge]

That is a nice spot, the bgm is quite chill there

[carmine bobcat]

I would do much longer but I had to go fast. Below zero leaves xbox gamepass in 7d

[jolly basin]

Took me even several hours with developer mode

[sly prism]

Can send you a screenshot if you like

[carmine bobcat]

If I wouldnt beat it in 7d i wouldnt have the game anymore 😭

[silk canopy]

If you love the game, I recommend you buy it

[carmine bobcat]

I mean i beat it xD

[sly prism]

Yeah below zero is amazing

[jolly basin]

It was on sale like a week ago, both games on steam (50% off)

[stoic surge]

Sure

[silk canopy]

yeye, but its wholesome to replay it

[jolly basin]

That’s when I picked up BZ since it is leaving gamepass

[carmine bobcat]

Ik, not worth 30euro tho

[sly prism]

I'll send you a dm

[silk canopy]

you did well

[carmine bobcat]

I still havent played the clasic subnautica

[silk canopy]

bro

[carmine bobcat]

But I have been spoiled

This is why 💀

[sly prism]

You should, it's good

[silk canopy]

I would have recommend you to play it before BZ

[carmine bobcat]

Ye

I would, but I have it spoiled so i decided to do this

Now its better that i did bz before bc I have to uninstall it in 7d 🙂

I can still play the original

It doesnt leave, atleast for now

I maybe will play the clasic later. Ima take a break of subnautica :P

[sly prism]

Wow, 30 euros

[carmine bobcat]

It will be cheaper after it goes away from gamepass

But i rather play the clasic 1 then

[sly prism]

I actually wrote a fan fiction based on the og subnautica

[carmine bobcat]

Or is there any rly good clasic subnautica mod that almost makes a new game?

[sly prism]

I've never played modded Subnautica

[carmine bobcat]

same

[jolly basin]

Yeah, just not for gamepass

[carmine bobcat]

I think it is possible to mod on gamepass as well

[jolly basin]

Gamepass is on an older version of the game, doesn’t support the latest QModManager and SMLHelper

Must use old versions and old mods

[carmine bobcat]

Oh

[jolly basin]

About 60% of mods are broken

[carmine bobcat]

If that's true it sucks

[jolly basin]

That will change in the 2.0 update to Subnautica

[carmine bobcat]

And when will that happen?

[jolly basin]

Then Steam and Gamepass will be on the same game version

And both have 93% of existing mods broken

Sometime between now and the end of the universe, don’t know

[carmine bobcat]

So its gonna get worse when it updates?

[jolly basin]

Yerp

[carmine bobcat]

Bruh 💀

[jolly basin]

But at least everyone will be on the same field for the new generation of mods and broken mods being updated

[carmine bobcat]

Oh ok

[unique citrus]

where can i report bug?

[rocky sigil]

#🐞bug-smash, dm the bot

[unique citrus]

smart app control in win 11 22h2 is blocking subnautica

[rocky sigil]

it'll explain how to report it once you dm the bot

[amber hemlock]

Have you tried uninstalling it?

[unique citrus]

working on it

[cloud trench]

Where is high capacity oxygen tank

[amber hemlock]

Actually have you tried disabling smart app control?

[unique citrus]

if you disable it you cant enable it without reinstall the whole pc

[amber hemlock]

Now that’s stupid

[unique citrus]

that's microsoft

[eternal garnet]

twisty bridges canyon at 120m, by a small building tube

[cloud trench]

Thx

[amber hemlock]

Actually it’s more dumb you can’t whitelist apps

[unique citrus]

yes

but i think it has some reasons why

it works but idk how long it will work

because last time it work too and it randomly stop working

but still thanks

[stoic surge]

Yet another reason I avoid windoes

[lofty needle]

what is this and is it bad for my health

[crisp skiff]

Mabye

[lofty needle]

what is it

[eternal garnet]

terrible photo. it's a whale. Friendly. Go ride its head

[worthy shuttle]

I just bought Below Zero for my PC and wow the optimization is so much better in this game than the original subnautica.

I'm blown away how much better it runs.

[eternal garnet]

that's nice to hear

[crisp skiff]

Specs?

[lofty needle]

there is whales in the deep twistys and they arent very firendly

[eternal garnet]

no those are squidsharks

I mean it, go ride it's head. Wheee

[lofty needle]

better pictuer

[worthy shuttle]

9900k @ 5Ghz
RTX 3080 Ti
32GB 3600MHz

[crisp skiff]

Dang

[eternal garnet]

I don't see how you could complain about SN1 performance

[crisp skiff]

With a 3080 💀

[worthy shuttle]

On the original subnautica, I kept dropping below 60fps sometimes at 1440p.

It's a locked 144fps on Below Zero at 1440p. It runs much better, which shocked me

[lofty needle]

can someone just tell me what this is

[leaden nexus]

i just got my mind blown

[eternal garnet]

You should thank me for the bug where you could not walk at over 300fps

[leaden nexus]

"my knife a lucky pda and some rope" ROBIN WAS THE PERSON FROM THE CAPTAINS LOGS???

[eternal garnet]

fixed

[leaden nexus]

from the original subnautica

[crisp skiff]

That’s weird that happens with a beefed up pc

[leaden nexus]

foreshadowing much woah

[eternal garnet]

what? That's new to me

[worthy shuttle]

Lmao. Yeah that's definitely a bug. Might be that Unity doesn't like super high FPS. Idk

[leaden nexus]

yall remember the captains logs where he talked about how a person surived for 3 months with my knife a lucky pda and some rope

i didnt know robin siad that, thats really cool

[eternal garnet]

eating stankroot or something?

[leaden nexus]

yeah i think

pretty sure the captian included the lucky pda and rope thing

ig robin was that person! what a neat little reference

[eternal garnet]

I doubt that was Robin. I'll check... someday

[leaden nexus]

well she said she was proud of it, and said it was her 🤷‍♂️

could be wrong but i hope im right because thats really cool

[undone jacinth]

@rocky sigil I did the marg's story

now I know what ||preston's plant|| is

[silk canopy]

You can make the salad now

Is the best food in game

[modest pagoda]

yes

its insane

[undone jacinth]

no thanks

my 1000 degree knife is enough to cook food anywhere

[leaden nexus]

why was i just now able to build with no battery in my habitat builder

uhhhh is that a glitch or?

[bold monolith]

To prevent a softlock.

[leaden nexus]

what

[bold monolith]

I assume you're playing the stable version here.

[leaden nexus]

oh

is this a new thing? i can use my habitat builder in my base with no battery but when i exit my base it becomes unresponsive??

[worthy shuttle]

I'm honestly not sure. I'm guessing so? Not exactly sure as I just downloaded both games on Steam. I'm pretty new to Subnautica.

[bold monolith]

Not new, as BZ released with it, but relatively new.

[bold monolith]

The next update should be better, but you can test the experimental in the "betas" tab.

I wouldn't advice you to play with it (as in playing a save file), even if it's relatively stable.

SN1 on PC is an older version. It doesn't have the tweaks and performance improvements you have on console yet.

[leaden nexus]

does anyone now anything about this kekeke

[eternal garnet]

it's a softlock fix. Intentional

[deep kettle]

Poor subtitles over there though 😦

[bold monolith]

Indeed. :þ

[leaden nexus]

do seamonkeys breed in the wild??? ive been noticing a lot more recently

[bold monolith]

No.

[eternal garnet]

but they do respawn

[leaden nexus]

:0

[barren atlas]

hmm

[worldly holly]

wished there was more stuff we could do with ion cubes

[barren atlas]

mhm

[lucid raft]

rip 9m of progress

for context i spawnt my snowfox and it fell in the ground

[cosmic trout]

bro took a big l from the game

[lucid raft]

ngl i feel like the terrain aspect of bz is really lacking

kinda feels like a bit of a waste imo

its fun but i just feel its so short and its completely optional

the hyperthermia isnt even really a problem if you use the cold suit and the snow fox

[unique citrus]

what to do after i find first part of architekt? (i visited all positions in pda and visited marguerite greenhouse)

@eternal garnet can you help?

[eternal garnet]

Go west, or northwest from delta. Land at the tower and explore land. it's huge.

[unique citrus]

okay thanks

[lucid raft]

sorry for the ping but do you know what the cuddlefish equivalent is in bz? i swear its like tripod or something

[eternal garnet]

trivalve. blue and gold

[lucid raft]

thats what their called

thank you very much

[unique citrus]

i found this, it told me to go to big crystals, where there are?

[eternal garnet]

That item is not in the storyline really.
There are two areas you need to go, one is big crystals, deep, the other is the big land area west

[modern locust]

Hello the master below zero players here!!!!

[eternal garnet]

what who what's subnautica?

[modern locust]

What are you talking about???

[eternal garnet]

I kid

[modern locust]

Oh

Penguin has mouth on head?

[eternal garnet]

yeees

Not really penguins, see

Many, many many sharp teeth too

[cedar wadi]

That image looks so good its like rtx

[unique citrus]

i have only rx

[eternal garnet]

it's just how game be on PC

[barren atlas]

your graphics tho🥵

[unique citrus]

me: send random screenshot
console bellow zero players: is this rtx???

[modest pagoda]

I don't think my graphics card is that good

[unique citrus]

i play on rx 570 with 4 gb of wram and i can go on full details

stable 60fps on 1080p

so i think you can play subnautica bellow zero on everything

you can even play it on intel hd xddddddddd

[eternal garnet]

no GPU :/

it gets acceptable FPS with no GPU, if the CPU isn't really old

like 20-35fps on an i5 4xxx

[modest pagoda]

where do you find this?

[eternal garnet]

steam has min. and recommended hardware

[unique citrus]

Delta Island I think

[modest pagoda]

the steam specs thing

[eternal garnet]

oh it was changed. Used to say "Intel Core i3"

[scenic parrot]

hello guys

im back

bro what they released the sea truck dock when i was gone

epic

[eternal garnet]

also custom game mode, check it

[scenic parrot]

oh cool

[hollow summit]

only in below zero?

[eternal garnet]

so far. Future uncertain

[hollow summit]

gotcha

thanks tho

[carmine bobcat]

Hi

[scenic parrot]

hi

[carmine bobcat]

Hi

Spoilers:||BZ stands for Below Zero||

[cedar wadi]

I finished the game and didnt know that, i was looking for tutorials on how to find out what it stands for but now i have been spoiled

[carmine bobcat]

Does cured food last longer!

[cedar wadi]

Yes

[modest pagoda]

yes

[carmine bobcat]

How long

[modest pagoda]

longer

[latent mantle]

bro i aint gonna lie this screenshot would make a killer wallpaper

[modest pagoda]

(I never use cured food so I have literally no idea)

[carmine bobcat]

Is it possible to make a home above water? Like at the island where the ||ice worm|| is

[modest pagoda]

yes

[cedar wadi]

Yes my home is on land

[carmine bobcat]

Oh thanks

And just use solar panels???

[modest pagoda]

I have a base thats on a lilypad and below it

[cedar wadi]

You can use any type of power on a land base

[lucid raft]

howcome sea monkeys help you when you have al-an

[modest pagoda]

because you're not an invader from a company thats exploiting the planet

[latent mantle]

lol

[lucid raft]

i mean technically alterra did "save" the planet

[carmine bobcat]

Also when i fixed the satelite thingy it told me to go somewhere

[lucid raft]

riley was under alterras pay check

[carmine bobcat]

Where is that somewhere

[lucid raft]

the greenhouse it tells you its 1km away with a compass direction

[cedar wadi]

On an iceburg 1km away

[carmine bobcat]

Got it

After that what do I do theres no architech point or anything after?

[lucid raft]

relisten to it to know which compass direction and head 1km their and you'll find it its a green house ontop of one of the iceburgs

[lucid raft]

have you explored the

glacial places

like on land

[carmine bobcat]

Like where the ice worm is?

[lucid raft]

theirs some architect stuff

[lucid raft]

mhm

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah but idk if i’ve discovered everything there, i spent all day there yesterday and i couldnt find anything

[cedar wadi]

You should take prawn suit there

And follow the green boxes and tentacles

[carmine bobcat]

Thats what I did, i swing like spiderman

[lucid raft]

theirs important stuff

[carmine bobcat]

So I am missing something?

[lucid raft]

mhm as reece said follow the big green box wires

[cedar wadi]

You cant complete the game without it

[carmine bobcat]

Is it about the ||huge monster trapped in ice that I heard in the pda’s||

[lucid raft]

the prawn suits way better for this then the snowfox ironically

[lucid raft]

thats on the other

side

[cedar wadi]

Snowfox is slower and weak i didnt make it till i already finished the game

[lucid raft]

so you have the main island and the other island thats on the bridge

[carmine bobcat]

I did, i laser cut through the big thick ice, found the wires followed it and it led me nowhere

[lucid raft]

its not about that btw

[cedar wadi]

I didnt know you could laser cut ice

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah I’ literally FLY in land with it, swinging is fun

[carmine bobcat]

Me too

[lucid raft]

i tried using the snow fox but its so bad

[carmine bobcat]

Prawnsuit with 2 of those arm thingys

U literally fly and gain so much speed the ice worm will never catch u

[cedar wadi]

You dont even need grapple to be better than snowfox

[lucid raft]

i have a drill and grapplin hook i wanna get 2 grappling hooks tbh

[cedar wadi]

You can jump constantly on land with jump jet upgrade

[lucid raft]

yeah lol

[carmine bobcat]

I got 2, and have the drill arm on the prawnsuits storage just in case i need it

[cedar wadi]

For some reason while falling you gain speed forwards

[carmine bobcat]

YES ITS FUN

[carmine bobcat]

okay anyways what am i missing

[lucid raft]

anyways you should investigate the ice worm side

and follow the green boxes wires

[cedar wadi]

It should go down into a place

[lucid raft]

dont spoil to much for him

but all you gotta do is :

[carmine bobcat]

Bc there was this architech elevator and it brought me underwater to this thick ice i had to cut with the laser cutter than i saw the electric wires(architech) and it brought me underwater to nowhere bc it ripped off

[lucid raft]

go onto the bridge and look for the green wire boxes and follow them it may help if its dark as they are illuminated green

[cedar wadi]

Wow i really have not explored that area theres an elevator what all i did was go to the important thing and keabe

[lucid raft]

thats one of the architect bases

[carmine bobcat]

Am i missing anything there?

[lucid raft]

||in their is an ion cube portal to phi robotics||

[lucid raft]

nope nothing their

[cedar wadi]

I should really go back in bz i didnt know there was a portal in bz other than the ending one

[lucid raft]

other then what i just mentioned

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah ik about that one its all ||torn up||

[lucid raft]

anyways follow the green wires their exposed

[carmine bobcat]

Wait so what might i be missing if i know where ||phi robotics is||

[lucid raft]

if you head into the massive open area where the ice worms you should find some wires soon

[lucid raft]

dont worry about that i was just mentioning what the elevator area did

[carmine bobcat]

Oh okay

[lucid raft]

but you need to go back to the ice worm area

and follow the big green wires and you'll find what you want

take your prawn

[carmine bobcat]

Okay where the ice tree things are

[lucid raft]

i think allen mentioned it being north east

[lucid raft]

no you go through the bridge

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah I went there and didnt find much

Is it underground?

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah i know theres like 2 ice mountains looking trees

Not tree but like they have a stem

Like this 🌲

[cedar wadi]

Technically yes but not much it just goes down into a tiny cave thing once you follow the wires

[lucid raft]

tryna use my last brain cells to understand what your talking bout

yeah just take a look you'll find it eventually

[carmine bobcat]

😭

[lucid raft]

its not to hard

[carmine bobcat]

So its underground?

[lucid raft]

the wires will lead you underground at the end yes

[carmine bobcat]

Also for the thumper

[lucid raft]

just go through the bridge at the dock where the ice worm is

and get looking

[carmine bobcat]

Should i make a base and then put the thumper outside the base

[lucid raft]

thumper kinda useless ngl

[cedar wadi]

Thumper isnt needed but you can use it if you want

[carmine bobcat]

Or how does it work

[lucid raft]

your rfine with the prawn

[cedar wadi]

It brings the ice worm to it and ice worm destroys it

[carmine bobcat]

Ohhh

[lucid raft]

basically you place it and the ice worms come but it doesnt last long

[carmine bobcat]

Okay okay got it

[lucid raft]

i didnt make one

just use a prawn and you're pretty freaking invincible

[carmine bobcat]

Got it got it

[lucid raft]

see what i did their like sundowner is pretty invincible

it funi pls laugh

[cedar wadi]

I have no idea what that reference is

[lucid raft]

metal gear rising revengeance a spinoff to the classic mgs series

(metal gear solid)

[carmine bobcat]

Oh LOL

[lucid raft]

bro i cant find any nickel

[eternal garnet]

deep lilypads

[vivid wave]

This guy

[lucid raft]

metal gear go brr

[lucid raft]

i found the nickel after 15 years

[vivid wave]

I found nickel where I get my gel sacks

[lucid raft]

i need lithium now

im gonna cry

[vivid wave]

You know the place where the heat things are

[lucid raft]

yeah?

[vivid wave]

Near the surface

[lucid raft]

the plants?

[vivid wave]

I find a lot of lithium there

[lucid raft]

ima check their

[vivid wave]

No the purple heat vents

[lucid raft]

oh alr

[vivid wave]

Hold on I'll show u

[lucid raft]

found it

i made my base next to it

[vivid wave]

Alrighty

[lucid raft]

2 lithium next to eachother

[vivid wave]

Bro same

[lucid raft]

ez depth moduls

[lucid raft]

like next to delta island?

[vivid wave]

Deep Bridges

They are pretty close tho

[lucid raft]

ah i made mine next to delta island as theirs heat vents

= thermal plants with infinite energy

thermal plants still my favourite energy source

[vivid wave]

I have cryptosayraos

Things near my base

But they were raised by me

[lucid raft]

i kinda just prawnsuitify them

(grapple and drill to they leave me alone)

[vivid wave]

So I'm not sure who is my baby or if they are not my kids

[lucid raft]

lol

[vivid wave]

Trial and error

[lucid raft]

i would make an alient containment

but its 5 glass

thats 30 quartz for a 3 alien containments

• hatchs

[vivid wave]

Near vent garden guys I find a lot of quartz

I have a second base near a vent garden

[lucid raft]

ill probably get the alien containment before

||getting resources to make alan||

[vivid wave]

Same

I'm breeding brute sharks

[lucid raft]

their annoying to deal with

[vivid wave]

Fr

[lucid raft]

the hecks that

[vivid wave]

A pinnacarid

[lucid raft]

never seen them before

[vivid wave]

They are very cute

They sound like elephants

They will follow you if you have a fish

[eternal garnet]

best give it one fish, then it definitely follows

[lucid raft]

never met one

[vivid wave]

I found an egg of one and just grew it

At the time I had a bio burner and no aquarium

So if I hadn't found an aquarium

I would've chucked it into the bio burner thing

[lucid raft]

bioreactor

also thats pretty e v i l

[vivid wave]

Look man they don't know

The bioreactor was just hungry

He wanted a snack

Anyway now I have like 700 pinnacarids

[carmine bobcat]

@lucid raft question @eternal garnet

[lucid raft]

hi

[lucid raft]

and here i havent seen one

[carmine bobcat]

How can I charge my prawn suit, i’m planning on making a base on land, and the moonpool only works on water i’m guessing

So is there another way i can charge the prawnsuit?

[lucid raft]

power cell chargers

or just make part of the base in the water

[eternal garnet]

powercell charger. Don't tag me for a game question

I'm not the only helper!

[carmine bobcat]

Sorry!

[eternal garnet]

But the moonpool is nice. Maybe make a water base too

[carmine bobcat]

Anyways do power cell chargers charge ion power cells as fast as normal power cells?

[lucid raft]

basically

[eternal garnet]

in power units, yes. but not in %

[lucid raft]

5x more power but 5x more charging time

or smnt like that

[carmine bobcat]

So make 4 power cells total

Have 2 charging and 2 used in prawn suit

[lucid raft]

that would be ebst

[carmine bobcat]

Got itttt

[lucid raft]

although you could just wait they charge quite fast

[eternal garnet]

there's a thermal charge upgrade for the prawn

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah but i’ll mostly be using it on land to explore

[lucid raft]

their is if you could find a steam vent you could get a tiny abit of extra energy i think

[carmine bobcat]

Ooo

[eternal garnet]

yes, prob. a bit more than tiny

Lots of steam vents

[lucid raft]

dont see them to much tbf

[carmine bobcat]

Okay got it thank gou

[lucid raft]

lost my quartz deposit because of a god dam shrimp

[modest dove]

kinda sad that the hostile creature spawn modifier doesnt affect leviathans

[lucid raft]

i do find the leviathans quite underwhelming so i wish it affected them

[modest dove]

i just want 8 shadows in the crystal caves

and 8 in the fab caverns

[lucid raft]

Is it really that much to ask for?

[modest dove]

i guess

[carmine bobcat]

@lucid raft question how can I get on top of the base i have on land

I wanna put solar pannels but its nearly impossible to

[lucid raft]

put them next to the base or use power transmitters and place them somewhere else

[carmine bobcat]

Power transmitters

How’s that work

[cedar wadi]

Prawn suit thats what i used to get ontop of my 2nd floor

Power transmitters transmit power

From one place to another the range is 100m i think unless it changed for bz

[eternal garnet]

first one, range is 4m. Next is 100m

[timid horizon]

anyone know were the gold and silver is once you jump off the ledge at the beginning of the game? i heard there was some there

[eternal garnet]

yes, a tiny cave in the north wall at 1m depth, just west of where you drop in

so to the right

it's very bright

[timid horizon]

yeah i can’t find it

don’t have the compass so no direction

[eternal garnet]

go up where you dropped in. Drop in. Go right. 50m away maybe, in the wall

I call it speedrunner's cave

there's also copper near drop-in, to the left a little, 50m away, 5m down

[timid horizon]

found it how many are there in the cave

[eternal garnet]

I dunno. check inventory

[timid horizon]

seem 4 silver and 6 gold

bruh that’s op to start out with

[eternal garnet]

with the copper too, yes. Intentional of course

[timid horizon]

so is it a “hidden area”

also do fish respawn

[eternal garnet]

yes, up to including sharks. Bigger, no

[latent mantle]

ok just one thing im confused about

[eternal garnet]

The egg came first.

[latent mantle]

so the PDA description for the squidshark says its a leviathan class but is it really a leviathan?

[eternal garnet]

it isn't, PDA text is outdated

[latent mantle]

ah alr

thanks for clarifying

[eternal garnet]

it is the hardest to kill of the regular fishies tho

[timid horizon]

what do you mean by out dated ?

[eternal garnet]

Fishy was demoted, PDA text was forgotten

[timid horizon]

why can’t they fix it

[eternal garnet]

So basically a bug. A text bug

[timid horizon]

tbh do they even update the game still

[eternal garnet]

very limited time

[latent mantle]

they do

[next current]

We will forever miss Tom Juberts writing.

[eternal garnet]

yes they do!

even Subnautica gets fixes, and a big update soon

[latent mantle]

ok one question about your role in this server swe so what does the role of playtester do?

[modest pagoda]

Hi ghost

[timid horizon]

below zero big update?

[modest pagoda]

They test the game

[latent mantle]

like do you get to test updates before they get added?

[eternal garnet]

unpaid playtesting. Not a lot of work per week. We get stuff to test, or write bug tickets for the devs

yes. Usually on Experimental, sometimes on something separate

[latent mantle]

still sounds fun I mean you get to test out stuff coming in the future

[modest pagoda]

Wait, what’s your actual job then?

[eternal garnet]

Experimental on steam nearly always has the latest edits

playtesters are also backup mods. Helping I do for fun

my job? I work at home, php/js developer

[latent mantle]

So let me guess you knew that the seatruck dock was coming way before it was announced

[timid horizon]

also does slated fish ever spoil

[eternal garnet]

yes. We sign NDA's. I don't have many secrets atm lol

[eternal garnet]

no. Stuff that spoils have a meter on them

[latent mantle]

wait

what is slated fish

[eternal garnet]

salted.

[latent mantle]

oh lol

[modest pagoda]

…what’s the next subnautica story about?

[eternal garnet]

yes

[timid horizon]

wait they are making another game?

[latent mantle]

dude thats the best story plot ever

[modest pagoda]

Okay, thank you for this information

[eternal garnet]

they are getting started, but it will be years

[timid horizon]

so i am assuming 3 years ?

or like 10

[eternal garnet]

I bet it'll be in EA on steam. But I don't know that

For quite a while

because it's a working dev model

[latent mantle]

wait i have a question about the 3rd subnautica so if it does get an EA will it be free on steam

[eternal garnet]

no, so far it's not been free. But cheap

[latent mantle]

i was always too late on the EA's for the other 2

[latent mantle]

ok well i hope it gets at least a sale if i dont end up getting it during its EA

[eternal garnet]

Some of the devs are working on Moonbreaker, which is very not subnautica

[latent mantle]

like i got both subnautica 1 and 2 when steam did a whole survival game sale

[timid horizon]

i stopped playing 1 when my 2k hours got corrupted

[latent mantle]

dang that mustve been painful to open the save file up to

[timber pebble]

Me when no subnatuica 😔

[latent mantle]

just to see that it got corrupted

[eternal garnet]

yeah. I have backups of my files. But I'm a dev

[timber pebble]

A game dev in general or?...

[eternal garnet]

oops. Haven't backed up for 2-3 weeks

i have like 5 backups of each of my saves idk if that sounds a little overkill

but at least im prepared

[eternal garnet]

when I first played BZ, I zipped my save. Had about 15 versions when done

I used some of them too!

I can't stand having just a single save point

[latent mantle]

when i first played BZ i got pretty far after 4 hours of gameplay and then i completely forgot to save

[eternal garnet]

and that is when it crashed. it's like it knows

[latent mantle]

yeah i walked away from my pc to go refill my water and when i came back it had crashed

[timber pebble]

Sad

[latent mantle]

i wasnt really sad i was just disappointed

[eternal garnet]

Did you know: a home PC will have about one memory error per week, caused by cosmic radiation. Sometimes this crashes an app or the OS, sometimes it changes data.
Server PC's have a different type of memory that is much more immune to this (parity memory - 9 bits per byte).

[latent mantle]

funny thing is i dont have a home pc

the only pc in the house is the one i built

[eternal garnet]

it affects all consoles too0

[latent mantle]

console gameplay for subnautica just isnt my style

[eternal garnet]

it's considered non-critical, so it's "fine"

I don't agree. BUt still I didn't get parity memory for my PC

[latent mantle]

im so used to mouse and keyboard gameplay

well i gtg i got food on the way

farewell

[rocky sigil]

PC is easier with controls

Consoles are better in a lot of ways

[eternal garnet]

absolutely. Especially with aiming, oh my

[timid horizon]

does anyone ever die when hitting the water after going up in the air with the air bladder?

[eternal garnet]

no... do you mean diving sickness? The bends? There's a mod that adds it

[jolly basin]

Isn't nitrogen (the mod) already in the game via console commands

[eternal garnet]

I don't know

[jolly basin]

That look's to be it

[timid horizon]

i am on playstation

[eternal garnet]

New to me. SN1 experimental: prints something but doesn't change gameplay

i'll test BZ too

Same. Doesn't affect diving

[timid horizon]

what a fish took my air bladder and went off

[barren folio]

im just curious anyone know how to acces console commands (so i can add a few things that i REALLY need)

[next current]

On PC, to activate console commands, you have to press Shift + Enter.

[barren folio]

ok

[eternal garnet]

note: enter any command and achievement getting is disabled, for that save

[barren folio]
