Repaired it?
Yup
Went over?
Uh-huh
Yep
when you cross, you get a major hint to one part. When you get near both parts (after skeleton), you get another message
Ohh
Well, time to check the pda
When I get home
I do know that ||some bodypart is in the crystal caves||, and I don't really want to go down there
You might want to spoiler tag that and I can assure you that you really want to go down there 🙂
Naw, too many crabrawlers
I mean if you want to continue with your task to get|| AlAn out of your head||
I also don't wanna get in a fight with drunk rugbiers
crabrawlers are your smallest problem there
What are crabrawlers ???
I had 2 for lunch
I can't find nickel ore in the crystal caves. Why??
Almost impossible to miss it, its everywhere
Did you use the mineral finder?
All the time. Not a single ore.
I know, it is not inside an outcrops. So I scan for the nickel directly.
Sure, and around ||Maidas base|| did you check there too?
A crab pokemon that punches stuff, crab, brawlers
I recommend going to the Deep Lilypad Caves for Nickel.
Dont know any of those, I am probabely a bit too old 🙂
7th gen pokemon
yea, I already missed the 1st gen 🙂
What's the third gen underwater parts if not old Subnautica
Deep Lilypad caves? I am near that one.
Ummm... wut?
Don't confuse it with the Lilypad Crevice. The Deep Lilypad Caves is the biome with the Grand Cotton Anemones.
Yes, under Omega base.
The underwater parts of gen 3 pokemon, you are under the sea and there's strange creatures, it's literally the same game ||/s||
never knew you could hold down seatruck perimeter defense, so much energy, but so powerful
noice
yes. You only need the short pulse to stop any attack
i love how this game has the sea current flow shown. itrs especially cool in the mines where theres sort of a trail leading to the middle
I miss it when wind was able to push the player around while jumping.
wut
i just got the rarest blueprint in the game: Grav Trap
derrrrr. no
They are scattered like weed. If you are low on Titanium, just scan grav traps, they are all over the place.
I finished it three times and never to bother to build one 🙂
thats different
we never had the chance
welp, got the ||skin, time to fight the gaping dragon||
also my alien containment light is blinking
Maida's greenhouse doesn't show up where it should be. Anyone know how to force the game to reload so I can keep going? I'm playing on Xbox and I've cleared the cache.
try reloading yes
are you on top on the flat bit?
My fix involves direct save folder access. sorry
can I make an infinite line of power transmiters?
basically yes. First one within 4m, next every 100m
I'm gonna light up the ||crystal caves||
2 holes appeared on my base
but it has over 100 points of hull integrity
none of those are nearby
and collision with what
the only thing nearby are pengwings and fish
stuffs. Prawn?
the prawn's docked
I was painting it when it flooded
well actually I was looking up a name while on the vehicle upgrade console
but same thing
guess why it's called that
other than for the sake of edginess
do purple vents work for thermal energy?
Yes
nice
do you think she'll mind?
fun fact, her base is not actually powered, there's not a single powersource nearby
yet another example of her plot armour
is there a way to take a selfie other than using a pengbot?
kinda need one to use as a mirror
nvm can't use it in interiors
whats the best place to build a base
im thinking literally where i started lol
its the only biome where things arent eating me
then make it there
no big sub in this game so no worries about space
worst scenario make secondary bases for what you need
actually im gonna do delta island
should i do landbase or seabase
for some reason my thermal plant is behaving weird
when I place 1 it gives me energy
when I placed a few more for more energy it stopped working
they all need to be within 4m of the first power transmitter
they are
sometimes the power flickers on and then off again
nvm it disconected for some reason, now it works
humble beginnings
if you kick that football, I predict serious foot pain
ok im getting rid of literally all of this after realizing i could use just one large room
subnautica experience
im trying to place a dome and uh
how does this work
That goes into an existing building
help i am freexing to death outside and rnun out of salad and coffe
open water, caves, pepper fruit growing in caves usually, any vehicle
forgot to bring a prawn, decided to walk on foot in a cold suit
im in a little area in the glacial forest, outpost pretty far away
you are freezing with a cold suit?
yes i stayed out too long
there's a cave north, by a radio mast
ok
to the left of the mast
might be peppers growing too, in those blue plants
there*
how is chelicerate pronounced?
i have 20 hours on record but like only 5 of those are in survival mode -- the rest, creative.
I just call chelli
I tried to type how I’d pronounce chelicerate but couldn’t get it right
I think it is pronounced "keh-li-ser-ate""
I think Cheh-lih-ser-ate
we can all agree chelicerate is the bz's versison of gl?
Of the hoverfish? sure
favorite leviathan?
go to the beacon, then down, into the NW tunnel. Follow the glowing wall plants and light sticks, down to 360m
She said she was at her green house atop an iceberg, I don't see a beacon
oh. I misread
1130m east of the delta dock beacon. Also south a little bit. The right island has boxes and lights. If you find the satellite, scan it then go next island SE
I went east and found lost of icebergs so it's just to the right from the island after going south?
look back at the delta beacon. Have it 1130m to the west
1000m east is the satellite. useful, slightly
Thank you
i'm not sure, but why have you been playing the game for 24 hours straight
forgor to close overnight
oh. that makes more sense
i've been playing for like 2
you are a new player?
is there a way to make a base draw power from a solar panel first before it resorts to draining the bioreactor
how much damage does a gas torpedo deal
the same damage over time as getting hit by a gas pod in the first game
according to the wiki of the first game it delas
deals 39 per second, way more than the gas pods
ok so 39 per second, for 5000 health
that's 129 seconds
each missile last 13 seconds
so 10 missiles minimum
oh I see
Where can I get lithium and lead?
i never bothered using the torpedo launchers since they feel so clunky and inneficient as opposed to smacking things in the prawn
you killed the dragon?
yeah
by fisting it to death?
fist or drill works
fist is a little more dps but it does not aimlock like the drill
rip bozo leviathan
shadow leviathan vewwy scawwy tho
go to the biome with the purple gas shooting out of the floor for lithium, and break galena rocks for lead
i have a weird goal to re-play both games in hardcore mode and kill every single leviathan on the maps
they dont respawn other than the void guys
my protip is to harass the leviathans until they get stuck because
a) the devs made their ai very braindead
b) they dont seem capable of clipping away into the terrain when they are grappled by a prawn
Where are galena rocks common
And not too deep
I got a prawn suit and just 1v1d a shrimp
so, the nuke plan failed
i ended up making several bases and runnin from one to the other
mom come pick me up i'm scared
Ayúdame estoy atascada en la lavadora
el destructor de coños
wur
i'm on prawn
not seatruck
kill kill kill
does it appear in the beacon manager
ah, then it still exists
holy cow u made 3
the first one delved too greedily and too deep
the second I forgot I had somehow
I actually made 5 but 2 got eaten
Are the thermal vents around the island good for putting a thermal plant on them
if you go up to them really close in a vehicle you can see how hot they are
i think some are just smoky and dont give much heat
How hot does it have to be to work?
How about those priple vents are they hot?
Damn these power transmitters have the most insane range on the planet
is it normal that ||alan stutters when he gets his body or is my game misbehaving?||
apparently not because it just crashed
OOfff
my pc is smoldering for some reason
i have a i5-8400 and a 1050ti and never had issues with subnautica until the end
Any thing else running in the background?
I put 2 thermal plants on a 54c spot and my base has infinite power now
Eh guess it just decided to say nope and quit then😅
put one next to my pc and you'll get more lmao
If your hungry just put whatever you want to cook on top of the pc
If I leave 2 sea monkeys in a containment will they make eggs?
I don't know.......probably not
Try a hard restart?
Ah good
hmmm
He's at it again ain't he?
Heh odd
Ah you're now trapped in limbo
it's been 5 minutes already
These Titan hole fish that have gathered on top of by base all look so brain dead
I took such an awesome pic of a ice worm
And a sea monkey and a hole fish
He popped up when I was higher then him and he roared at me
And now it’s a pic in my base
Creatures in alien containment don't do eggs, they just make a third one if you have 2 of the same kind. And then fourth and so on.
welp, finished below zero
And? Did you enjoy it?

my game crashed after 2 hours
does anyone know
Where can i find laser cutter fragments?
In the caves under the kelp plants
There's some other goodies to find there too
they can be on the seafloor in the caves or in the nests
thx
also is it true that leviathans get scared or is my game glitched
y'know the chelicerate that is at tree spires
so i punched him a lot
he ran away and never came back
pretty normal
was cool but my pc was dying towards the end
now I need mods that change how everything works
Just found him, he's on the surface
like swiming but in air
lol
Ok that coward moved to the lilypads biome
Today i'm eating lobster for luch.
He called a friend and ganged up on me lol
Can't even beat a human inside a piece of metal smh
I just made my base super nice and I’m now lost in the story I think I did maida cus I have her greenhouse open and now what
The deepest I’ve been is like the deep lily pads place with underground Lilly paddlers
You disabled the com tower?
Yea
Check the Alterra base map, what facilities have you not visited.
yeah do that and the alien body pieces too
AL-AN will tell you what to do once you're close to one
I have been to all except the omega I think
You have been to Phi
have you found the bridge
Yea I went across the bridge and found a hand and teleporter
Ok, you have to go further to the north
Also have you found the glacial basin map in phi robotics?
You found the ||tissue||???
Yea
Excellent, than you have to find phi excavation site. If you want to see the highlight of the game 🙂
And Omega Lab is also good to find, for the story and scans.
I got the thruster for free and I fly so fast across the map
But Phi excavation site is most important
I think I got everything in phi
Phi robotics or Phi excavation site???
Check the glacial basin map
Have you visited all sites there?
My bad not phi but koppa
Oh, now then there is much more to explore
I went to the robotics lab and I left
Anyone else finding the ending extremely dissapointing?
Cus my inv was full of motivational posters
So you have the entire glacial basin area to explore. That is huge and beautiful too.
is omega base above or below the lilypads?
Inside a|| rock underneath some|| lilypads
I wish I found one extra snow fox part
Thay are scattered around and above phi robotics.
Why should i use the snow fox if i have a prawn suit
Because its FUN!!!!
I have four of them, one for every base 🙂
I have a west arctic highway network fully illuminated with light sticks and I zapp around with the snow fox
I don't really feel safe going around on a motorcycle whilhe there's a ||big fat worm underneath me||
Yes, but very very slowely.
What are the pros and cons of having nuclear energy?
Who knew being a vegetarian would be so nutritional
It lasts very very long and produces a lot of energy. But its noisy.
So I put it in the corner of my base far away.
You have to build nuclear rods from time to time
I honestly should make one just because I have so many rods
But I don’t want Chernobyl
Be my guest
a
I don’t need it tho cus I have thermal 24/7
Sure, or solar or bio.
From purple vents all the way to west arctic
Perfect!
Yay my fish are reproducing
Soon i will have a peeper army
That chelicerate is going to feel my wrath
My peepers will eat him alive
I also have a science lab to study the life forms on this planet
does this game have ion battery or something close to that
Yes, Ion batteries and ion cells
Its an achievent for scanning alien artefacts
I e found so many of these alien artifacts just running around
Pleasure!
What plants should I be farming in my external?
Something cool i found: Ever since i made that chelicerate run away, a lot of juvenile ventgardens have appeared
I’ve got ribbons gel sacks
lots and lots of chinese potatoes
they're yummy
ooooo
I’ve died to thirst more then anything
ventgardens are so cute1!1!1!1!1!!
Exterior or interior growbed???
Exterior
Interior are fevered peppers and preston fruits
I planted one of everything, just for completeness. But ribbon plants are most useful, until you discover how to make infinite batteries
Where do i find the peppers?
On land
Yea by phi robotics u will find them
in the west or east arctic. Fevered pepper trees.
so how do i get to the large land areas?
I need spiral plants I started growing anemone
Do you have the alterra base facilities map from delta station?
Just live next to a ventgarden
I live by sea monkeys and hole fish
Then go to phi robotics
They are superior
Ventgardens have a ton of spiral plants inside them
The only problem with sea monkeys is that I always run them over on accident
is phi the O with a / inside
or is it the O with the |
is it above the sparse reef-like biome
with the jellyfish
ok i accidentaly reached the void and got jumpscared by a ghost chelicerate
hold on, degasi crashed on 4546B before the aurora and they crashed during below zero
i dont play below zero
just asking
what
yk in subnautica there are degasi seabases right?
yeah
from the 3 members that survived the degasi crash
and it's said that they crashed before the aurora
yes, steam blurb says 5 years later
Below Zero is after SN1's events.
Ah yes. 5 years after Aurora, I meant
At the time of the old story, Tom wrote something like 2 years after. But it isn't canon anymore.
I don't remember anything mentioning it in the new story. Never mind it says one and half year later in the current story.
Oh the blurb now says 2 years. Not sure if I remember wrong or not
whats planet alpha671?
it's the one with the deadly greeboids
I hope we get more information on theses planets if 4546b is this crazy imagine what other places are like 👀
Must the Snowfox pad be connected to other base modules (to have energy)?
I don't think so? I think it's like the mobile vehicle station?
And the snowfox is built on it?
yes. And it is independent. Built in solar too
How does the cold suit work? I still got a counter running down.
Wear it, and cold rises a lot slower. Slower with more pieces worn
So there is no 100 % protection from cold, interesting.
Well, in custom game mode you can turn cold off
Holding a flare also reduces cold a little bit, plus keeps doggies away
Can I get any hints, where the artifact positions are?
I played SN1, is BZ worth it?
Yes. Don't expect it to be SN2 though. It's different
Ah yeah so I heard, thank you, do you know the main differences between the 2 games?
You're not alone, for one thing. There's also a lot similar
The grinding plays very differently. And they went sure, you don't get the scanner room chip too early.
ah right okay
It's a lot "easier" in that there aren't dozens of leviathans in the map.
I think there are less than 10 hostile ones in total.
I just fell down in the arctic spire "through" the floor into the water without an way of returning. Bug?
Hehe penglin = cute
pengling = bioreactor fuel
You monster

Can the ice worm attack the prawn?
sure
How bad is it if you get hit?
I'm not sure, but it's not an 1-hit at all
Seems to be 25
i just go on foot in the arctic spires
my first playthru didnt have cold suit either
On the compass slot there’s a second slot what can I put on there?
Scanner room Hud chip
That’s it
That chip is nice, makes the scanner room actually useful
How much snow stalker fur will I ever need?
My spy pengling just got demolished by a damn stalker
is it possible to change the scanners activation button to left click?
It won’t be called Scanner but in controls it’ll be something like Use Tool (probably not that but something of that nature)
If it does exist
Honestly the prawn does everything the snow fox does plus more plus underwater
Pretty much
It’s cool tho
You'll only need 4 pieces, but grabbing 6 wouldn't hurt.
I didn't even make a Fox in my first game, and from messing around with it on a later Creative run, I found I hadn't been missing anything.
I just made one to fly through the basin for fun
I was getting chased by the stalker the whole way through
Should I just head deeper
I’m kinda lost but there is a spot where I can go very deep and haven’t been yet
I also accidentally just found the antidote and cured a beast
im kinda sad that i missed a lot of below zero's development
i played for 6 months from EA1, then lost interest
i only came back 2 months after full release
THANKS SO MUCH!!!
is there any way to access a specific changeset from early access?
im wanting to access changeset 20792
What's so special about this specific version?
it was the version featured in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vMwyca-FMM
This is the ending from the old story, before the story rewrite
ive tried the EA builds before and after but the old ending is not on there
i just see this on my PDA instead
You could find the manifest id and use DepotDownloader.
But you won't be able to see the ending, as the ending was hidden.
Also, there wasn't much more to see other than what is in the video at the time.
But maybe you want to be eaten by Charlie too.
yeah well i just want to be able to access what happened in that video
You won't see it even if you have the same changeset. There is something more, but I won't reveal the secret.
👀
Just know that the ending wasn't publicly available at all during EA.
oh
well it would be nice if they made it public so people could experience the end of the old story
wait what theres something more!?
is it some kind of command?
It was hidden. It isn't version specific. That's all you'll get from me. :þ
wow.
i see how it is
hold up has it got anything to do with this "Level 11" file ive found inside the game files? some parts of it are words when interpreted in ANSI that suggest to the ending
It was probably in a separate scene, so yes, kind of.
You should use the strings command or a hexadecimal editor. :þ
Nobody is doing forensic with a cat.
either im completely incorrect or ur just tryna fob me off
im gonna get to the bottom of this
I'm sure you will.
any hints u can give me?
also, make it a reply ping so i can check back on it later
The way they hid it, isn't very complicated. I won't give you the answer because it was intentionally hidden. So I won't leak the secret. Even so I think it was too trivial and I don't think they should ever use the same method, but I can't say for sure they won't in their next games.
Therefore no I won't say anything else.
ugh okay
Was I supposed to find this enzyme 42 and give it to the monster
yes that is the end of sam's storyline
Yo how i can ability the commands?
shift + enter from what wiki says
The Seatruck docking module, does it need to be connected to the base parts?
Well you just ||completed Sams story and cured the Khara bacteria. And now Robin has peace of mind regarding the death of her sister ||. Congratulations!
I also have a hard time finding a good looking spot for the new seatruck dock in my existing bases. So far I also struggle to find it look good. For my main base I stay true to my original design of having two moon pools connected with tubes that are space out exactly so my seatruck and my prawn can enter it at the exact right parking position of my seatruck modules underneath. Yes, its more manual work to park everything nicely but that's also fun to play.
Does the seatruck-dock provide energy for my seatruck, like the monopool?
Yes and it automatically heals the seatruck cabin.

does that mean there is a way to unlock ending contents in the earliest builds of early access?
i would absolutly love to see parts of the ending while game said you have a time limit to disable the planetary shield
ill try it one i have more materials
why is there a massive chelicerate swimming around in the twisty bridges
their territory is so erratic man
bro what
well this is splendid
nice pool
You should try putting base in rice
what
Bluey
Why won’t my creep vines grow?
I got 2 containments next to each other with a third one stacked in the middle of the first 2
Creepvine is growing through the hole connecting them but it won’t mature
Can’t destroy it either
did you plant the seeds
Yeah
idk why then
When you click on the bottom of the tank to display the items, does it show up there?
And how long has you let it grow so far?
Yeah
Grew to 52% and stopped
Ok, that's odd, other plant grow normally?
Yeah
Is there some sort of weird requirement that the 2 tanks be flush on top of each other or something ?
No, I have 5 tanks stacked in X shape
it doesn't work in containment. Grow em outisde, fixed
Two on the bottom, one in the middle, one in the middle, one on the outside.
I have creep vines in my tank, I have to check but never found any problem with them.
I’m on switch btw
You mean to harvest them? Sure, but for decoration should be fine
mine also stopped growing, although there was a lot of room above
outsiiiide
F
Let me check on mine, just curious if I never noticed it.
Weirdest part is it won’t let me destroy the failed plant
Yes, thats normal, you can only harvest when its fully grown
just deconstruct the containment
That's an option but with three tanks its a bit of a pain
Ugh I’m gonna have to empty all my fish to do that
Ok, I did not plant creep vine in my 5 tanks, I thought I did but apperantly not. Sorry.
Guys, how comes: I got a seatruck with 2 modules. Sometimes pressing "E" results in leaving the seatruck, sometimes just in leaving the stearing wheel.
oh, I have no idea how that happens or how to fix it but I think its pretty common
Got it: If the Truck is looking forward, you just leave the steering wheel, if you look down, you leave the truck.
That must be something specific to the large containments then. I’ve grown creepvine in Subnautica using stacked containments (as well as blood kelp) (using the multipurpose room containments) and as long as I had at least 2 stacked containments they matured just fine. Weird. Never tried putting creepvine to harvest I don’t think in containments in BZ
its about the floor tilt. if its too tilted to walk, you go directly outside
If the seatruck is too much angled down you’ll be ejected
Its the most usefull feature to gather stuff. One click and you are out or back in your seat. Very handy.
Took all the fish out of this stupid containment I don’t need anymore but I can’t deconstruct it cause it’s full of half grown creep vines that I can’t destroy
Why tf can I deconstruct plant pots with stuff in them but not a containment unit
This is stupid
What upgrades/ vehicles do you recommend for the crystal caves?
truck, learn to use Perimeter Defense. it's not a passive upgrade
But it’s a really good one
Not like ive already played subnautica and gotten experienced with that😅
Yes. It will cancel an attack, if fired at the start of attack
I like to wait a small bit before using it because ive had situations where i use it too early and need to wait for cooldown.
Nothing more terrifying than having to wait when a reaper is shaking your seamoth around.
Fire the second you see the ||shadow leviathan’s|| mouth grab you
from the animation where it descends on you, you can fire
Ok. What is the easiest way to the crystal castle/organ place?
Ive gone from the lilypad islands and past the base into a deep cave and found the crystal caves.
Good idea. Gotta remember that.
Your real purpose here is to spam the world with beacons
Also, how effective is the afterburner with 4 modules?
Very. It always adds 4m/s
Just in case i gotta run from a shadow leviathan.
About 11 m/s🤔
Sorry. +4 m/s
you can also see here, full speed with 2 modules. 3 with HP upgrade
I mean, with 3+HP it decreases slightly. But the decrease is miniscule.
right
Who in their right mind uses 20 modules on a seatruck?
testers.
In survival mode🤔
but still, that will get 6m/s while boosting
How much?
this much ||
||
(I don't know everything)
Id guess 1% with basic cells.
Oh well. Gotta see for myself.
Maybe im gonna switch to full ion cells on my seatruck.
Yes. Or just one makes a huge diff
I got one on my prawn. Do i bring the prawn along or do i leave it?
There are some holes specifically for mining in. Gold, silver, I forget
So yes.
Also, should i prepare slightly more just in case i continue my trip all the way to the fabricator cave?
I got 2, i might just take everything im gonna need and craft the body while im there.
The crystal caves one will be the last one i need.
Why you don't take the prawn to ||fab ||facility
I don't think so
Phew.
Anyways, im on my way. Im gonna need to get 2 peices of lithium and kyanite during my trip.
You should save for the last time now. This makes your post-game play better
After the end, you may load and save again
Why?
Turns out, the seamonkeys arent helping you. They are helping Alan
So when Al-An gets his body, the sea monkeys turn into the same grabby yoink frustration things again?
exactly
Oh no.
solution, keep him in your head, in your savegame
it's obvious
In that, he just tells me what to do?
yes, silly
I partially wanna just keep Al-An just for the generous sea monkeys, but i also wanna free Al-An permanently just because yes.
Also, i forgot to ask. How bad is a hit from those leviathans?
Im scared of my seatruck breaking.
Its 2 or 3%. It almost depletes 1% with 1 ion cell.
35% I think
Oh god. I was hoping i could at least take a maximum of 3 hits and survive. No. 2 hits and im toast if i get attacked.
How do i even get to the deeper crystal caves alive?
no worries, repair immediately as attacks have a cooldown
no running and hiding first
And perimeter defense stops it. 0% damage
done right
If i am a tiny bit late?
then maybe 5%
Ok. WAY more managable.
Friendly advice: discovering things in a game of discovering like Subnautica by yourself will be much more entertaining instead of asking others
Go ahead and experience it
yes, true
You'll figure out what to do dw
But if you are terrified and don't want to go on, some guidance can help
I might not like getting terrified in real life but in Subnautica? Shred my guts to bits out of fear
I know there is the experience of learning by yourself but i happen to be one of those more "i just wanna beat it" sort people.
I love it
Deep grand reef and the degasi base there. Man i was shaking terrified a crabsquid was gonna kill me and destroy my seamoth.
I too was terrified for the first time but i got used
Subnautica below zero actually helped me get rid thallasophobia
Somehow i was lucky not to meet a reaper when going to the aurora.
And Subnautica
Do lights attract shadow leviathans?
I wish the game was made that detailed and realistic
(no they don't get attracted to light)
Phew. Again.
I hate to see when those beautiful leviathans go through rocks and stuff
I love the game but i hate this little bug / issue it makes the game a little unrealistic
I just found a crevace with TONS of kyanite!
I know that spot too but you won't need that much kyanite
note that you'll never need tons
Ik. But ill grab some anyways.
Kyanite is such a beautiful mineral to be honest
It has interesting unexpected properties too
I just found a red spiky egg.
I found that egg too but idk what will hatch out of it if i incubated it
Judging by the size id guess its a rock puncher.
'you found the punk football! This:|| rock puncher.||
What do you guys think about Below Zero, I'm thinking of buying it
A great game. Have you played subnautica before?
It's more Subnautica, but it's also different
Yup I loved it
Then you will most likely also love BZ.
Nice
Just be aware, Below Zero does have a slightly different feel to the original game.
Many of the story elements remain the same (Alterra, Precursor Race, etc), but there are some very large land elements to the game (Glacial Basin & Arctic Spires).
missing: being alone against the world
Also, there is a lot of dialogue in the game from the player, and... other things that might spoil the story. There is audio attached to some abandoned PDAs which are nice to listen to as well.
yes
So. Ive got the nesseccary parts and blueprints.
Good luck!
ok save last time now, I guess
Done.
Oh god the ambient sounds.
The red crystals look cool tho.
Do shadow leviathans attack a seatruck left alone?
Ok. So when i go into the fabricator facility, they leave my seatruck and the prawn docked to it alone?
yes
I love it so far
I came from subnautica
With my horrible timings ive managed to get from 15 to 5 damage and even a single perfect execution.
feel the fear drain away at the same time
Heh. Ive gone from "oh god please dont attack me" to "ok? You wanna attack me? Take that!"
I think im just gonna save with Al-An out of my head just because it feels right to me.
Or, actually i dont know what i should do.
With AlAn out of your head its base building time
For 250+ hrs he is waiting for me
I think i can take the sea monkeys being annoying.
I might do a big goof up here but im saving the ending.
the bladderfish sees the waterbottle and now he is worried
I haven’t played in a long time but I’ve always parked the seatruck (leave the modules up near entrance to ||crystal caves or somewhere safe||) between red crystals and wall where the shadow can’t get to it while going to the ||fabricator facility via seaglide|| there’s some risk still but at least seatruck will still be there when I get back
it would be cool if the glass lockers previewed some items stored insie it.
Of all the things, I wish they had inherent labeling, the large lockers
very true!
but, you could always put a sign above it and rename it.
though that takes up two copper so... its not too efficient
I made rows of glass lockers side by-side so you dont see the front. Putting signs above it was the only option
To bad you xannot put signd on objects
Only on walls. Makes labelling things a bit awkward
Ok. Im at the phasegate. Time to go!
Did you save
Im WAY excited for the ending.
Bofore entering?
Yes.
Go
Ok. Time to step in.
Drumm roll
Sometimes the signs don’t work well on the walls in the large rooms
Well, especially if you make wall divisions
Do speed modules on the seatruck stack?
No unfortunaltely not
Horsepower and afterburner do not stack
Can you have 2 afterburners and stagger use them?
No, you can only have one module of each kind
So. Game played trough. What now?
Where do i get lots of titanium?
Drillable ors along the world border
Treat of chelicerate attack?
It took about 5 days of pure gameplay for me to beat subnautica. Below zero in less than a day of pure gameplay.
It’s a smaller map, and it has narrated gameplay, so it makes sense some people can finish in less time.
I took my time and really enjoyed it. I definitely didn’t finish it that fast lol
For subnautica i just went around doing unneeded things. Now i just focused on beating the game.
That makes all the difference
"20-30 hours of gameplay"
-over 5 days. Take it or leave it😂
Guys help
I am swimming in my sestruck for some reason and I am stuck and cant move
I csnt press unstuxk button
and I also can't save
I dont want to lose 2 hours of progress
You’ll have to die somehow
Unless you’re willing to use commands which means losing achievements (entirely for that save) and you’re on something besides Switch (doesn’t have commands)
Can you die? Of thirst or hunger, if in survival?
Are you in survival so you can die of hunger or thirst?
yes but I have full thirst and Hunger 💀
You tried warpforward?
yes
That usually fixes
doesnt work
if you are using commands, there is "kill"
commands prevent achievements, if you save any time after
Oh true, forgot about that
About the kill command I mean
I mentioned achievements being lost if using commands
k, now save 2-4 times an hour
idc about achievements rn im just gonna do then all with dev menu
Later on
After I finished
does that work?
Believe so, think that's how I got mine on PS4
Does anyone know what the max temperature you can get for a thermal reactor
Curse
The answer to the energy crisis
Know how much they worth in there?
Is it possible to complete the game with only a seatruck?
Can complete the game with only prawn, only seatruck, only snowfox, or no vehicles at all
Allrighty ty
Wait for real?
yes
Maybe a bit painful at some parts without a seatruck or prawn
speedrunners use only seaglide, usually
Where and how do I get snow stalker fir?
use the little penglin drone to sneak up and just take a bunch out of a nest
K
no take fur off a live adult. With the bot
That's seams alot more dangerous
So am I using the drone thing to get it off an adult?
yes. Or the cave, but you can just pick that up. Hold a flare to scare em off
the cave is south of phi, somewhere
Phi is the robotics one right?
yes
K, thanks
does anyone have an update map of all the biomes?
this is the one i use: https://subnauticamap.io/belowzero
Up-to-date interactive Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero map of biomes, resources, lifepods, wrecks and all the other points of interests and collectibles.
u can turn on or off markers for things and flag something as visited so it can work as a checklist for an area as well
Censored for spoilers pertaining to the Mercury II story.
||The PDA log "Emergency Takeoff - Diana" makes mention of some of the crew being left behind inside of a cave of the Arctic Spires because they are showing symptoms of the Kharaa Bacterium. Are there any remnants of this, such as some supplies from their survival kits they were left with, or maybe some extra PDA entries of those who got left behind?||
||If not, I feel like it's a missed opportunity to add a little more story into that part of the game||
//spoilers for end game
has anyone found out ||what the name of the place in the final cutscene is???||
seatruuuuuuuck
4546K when? lol.
he will never be a cyclops no matter how hard he tries
No one knows. It's just known as ||the Architect's Homeworld||
ah. okay.
though, it might ||be another planet entirely? still in 4546 though, or maybe not. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasnt though considering the fact that nothing gives off the vibe of subnautica. i wonder how unknown will incorporate water into the mostly industrual sci-fi landscape. ||
I do not believe UWE is basing the next Subnautica game on the ||Architect Homeworld||
first game but ties into here.
||i wonder where ryley landed? he might've landed in the architect place. imagine if we get to choose ryley or robin as a starting chaacter||
The end of the first game was Ryley arriving back home to Alterran space.
yeah, i understand that but like, ||they have to incorporate the teaser in it somehow, similar to how the image of sector zero appeared in the crater. it was obviously a frozen area, and what did we get? frozen.||
oh, alright.
did the "arctic trench" concept art by strader ever make it into the game?
i don't recall ever seeing it.
I absolutely believe we will not see Robin Ayou in the next game, so it would not make sense to start the game where it had left off.
It's not in the game.
Not even inside the cut content on the wiki either.
fair.
well then it likely wasnt implemented.
this was the ca.
That's giving Hoverzone Three vibes.
Would've been nice if they kept that biome to be honest.
i love looking through ca that didnt make it into the game.
An easy way to access the ||Architect Phase Gate Facility|| without having to go back through the other biomes.
but it is also sometimes unfortunate because there can be really cool biomes that never made it.
similar to the ice dragon.
I miss the entire old story to be honest.
me too, but the new story is very cool.
also, the old story seemed kind of odd? like the ||sea emperor babies just swam|| across the entire planet?
it would be interesting to see what we couldve gotten
do you remember when blood kelp was in the game?
No.
ah.
Why did the old story get cut?
From what I saw, it was (mostly) complete.
I know Tom Jubert had left the team, but the game was basically completed except for a few minor details.
i am not sure.
I miss the old story
is it possible to scare a cheli from east artic to purple vent?
Everyone does.
I don't see why not.
I think that it was a lot more interesting, but I also understand why they wanted to elaborate on architects
I just kind of feel that the switch from the initial purpose of being there to the story was a bit lazy in my opinion. No hate to the storywriters though
i don't even know the old story
bz overall flopped
That's a bold statement.
I feel that current story lack a second ending, no matter what robin does she goes to an alien planet with an alien that she believed 10 days ago was a hallucination, also how did she even get there? Aurora mission was 18 months long if I remember, I dont think she could afford traveling this far and she did it in secret
it didnt get the reviews it needed nor live up to the hype
its got its own good aspects but overall ..
The god tier aspects is the world flora, fauna, creatures
yeah the creatures are p cool 
Only creature in subnautica that desapointed me in any way was void chelicerate
Its a preety cool reskin but its still a reskin
does anyone have an image of the old version of al-ans body?
I dont think there was
The scannable parts were artifacts from quarantine enforcment platform
like during the old story time period
they are parts from the inside of the gun in s1
I just said that
Oh geez i just remembered phase gate existed
This was another cool concept
Scan 40 alien artifacts and get alien tech
I can't find any version of it that looks diffrent
hm okay
Spoilers! (duh) PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION
00:00 | Intro
05:25 | Sanctuary
08:55 | Radio Tower Repair
10:44 | Sam about Sanctuary and Al-An about new medium
12:12 | Glacial Basin Lab (Now Phi-Robotics)
14:06 | Glacial Basin Bunker
15:01 | Frozen Leviathan
17:30 | Al-An about his name
18:22 | Marguerite - First Encounter
19:23 | Sending Kharaa ...
Best version of the story imo
You save the vesper, you get margatit off the planet, you save al-an from jeffrey and you help al-an save remainings of his people
Current story is just constructing Al-an new body and optionally check what happened with sam
also i want explanation of this
who/what is the arriving colony
does seatruck perimeter defend work on void cheli?
i love bz audio file names
Anyone know a good place to get TONS of lithium?
hey guys but subnautica costs 30 $?
Finished Below Zero
Took my trivalve with me on ||Al An’s spaceship||
Interesting sequel tease
how scary is the ice worm on a 1-10 scale?
The ground shakes are from 3-5 id say. The most violent ones being around 5. The ice worm itself id say is from 6-8 or 9 if it gets too close.
Ive gotten close enough its actually hit my prawn and i was panicking.
Be careful and keep moving. The ground shakes tell how close you are to it attacking.
just to say hi
Ive had that happen less than 5 metres away.
It was scary.
Also. Btw, do NOT let it get close enough to fling you into the air. That is an instakill.
When do i know im approaching the void?
Before i get attacked by a void chelicerate.
Just look at the terrain.
Just jump n boost ur way across the ice the worms cant hit u
best music disk?
When the PDA says: You are approaching the ecological dead zone
That has already happened once, and wont happen again.
Does having the lights on in my vehicle make me grab more attention from hostiles?
For me, it is: Diving into Deep, Deep Dive, Survive, Subnautic stimulus. In that order 🙂
No, I don't think there is any difference in that.
Are there any large uraninite deposits?
Tree spires and cristal cave have the most. But you can find them in most deep environment like deep lily pad or deep purple vents.
Im in tree spires, where should the large deposits be? Im only finding small ones.
It only comes in single units, but its the concentration that makes it more likely to find in those areas.
Oh ok.
Same like lead, oh, how much I would wish for lead or veins or deposits.
It is quite obvious from the sea floor terrain. All resources stop and there is a drop off into the depth. Also once you are the border you can look back to your base and remember approx. distance. And if chellis come you run and repair the truck, no big deal.
my first leviathan attack bruh
shrimp
Hello tom tom
just saw the shadow leviathan for the first time, not as scary as i expect
I mean, they dont really look that scary, but still you dont want to mess with them.
Swimming near one of those is a deathwish.
Just got started with the game. Without giving any spoilers, what is the recommended starting place for the first outpost?
I would stay near your drop pod and only build a small base. You can later move everthing to whatever place you like. I have build my main base here and I like it -279.2, -4.8, -103.2
I then build bases in each biom, so I can go wherever I like, but the main base is in the save spot.
Sorry, I have a hard time reading the coordinates on the map. In which direction is this from the starting base? @west mountain
There are several starting locations, so I don't know where you started from. But it does not matter too much either. I would stay in a save spot with not predetors for the beginning. Around your drop pod is always safe.
@west mountain Ah, thought it was in subnautica that you always started at the same spot. Nice
There are apperantly three different starting locations.
@west mountain Hm, maybe in the future there will be a mod to randomize it completely, that would be hella cool.
To accidentally start in a hostile area, assuming these 3 starting locations are all in safe areas
The problem is that the drop pod sits on the ground, so its not floating like in subnautica. So ramdomizing it is tricky. I think its a compromise. It also does not matter too much.
But it makes giving directions a lot harder.
it's more like a salmon
what is the easiest way to get diamonds
Early game, there is no easy way. Deep twisty bridges is the first place to look for. Or thermal spires caves.
Apparently there should be a way from the koppa site into the crystal caves. How do i get there?
Never heard of that
I mean, im basing this on one map ive seen, so im not surprised if it doesnt even exist.
As I said, from all the maps I know and explored that does not exist.
Ok.
Also, is there any way to get trough or around the koppa site ckosed doors or are those areas just out of reach.
There are two secret entrances suitable for the seatruck
A long one and a short one, short one even with prawn and docking module.
Sorry, do you mean the front door or the inner doors? The inner doors are just for decoration. Nothing there.
But the entire area is full of caves, so a lot of things to explore there.
Inner doors. Im always wondering what is behind there.
Yes, sorry, no there is no way in.
Correct, but there is tons of it in purple vents and later in cristal caves.
As much as id love to get all of that, i dont really wanna get eaten by a chelicerate or a shadow leviathan.
No, you will not. The longer you play the more you just start to ignore them. And once you really need tons of material I killed all four shadows and emptied the cristal cavern completely. That gives you so much resources for all the bases you dream of.
How did you kill them?
the seatruck is your best weapon in BZ. Just ram it and use the zapper. It's easier than you think.
Wont that also heavily damage the seatruck?
No, if you zapp at the right moment not at all. And you can always repair it from time to time.
I was meaning the ramming itself.
No, no damage or very very few at all.
Could you also basically surf on the shadow leviathan and drill it with a prawn?
I tried everything, seatruck is the easiest, fastest and least stressful.
Well. For me it mostly sounds like a chance to lose a seatruck but i guess the only way to know is to try.
You can save before, no problem at all.
Oh. Right. Forgor moment.
Should i use the cabin itself or do modules increase the damage?
Corrent, some modules (not too many, otherwise too slow) to increase the punch, and use the afterburner just before impact
I have 4 modules, will that help?
Sounds good.
