the data box survived the save.
woah i never seen this done before 🧂
it was close, got me down to thirty something percent, I tried to use my jets to stay behind
quite the ride believe me
so uh
all the upgrades in my prawn suit disappeared and now I can't interact with the upgrade panel at all
using mods? Then I blame them
If not, er, nice weather, isn't it
no mods
the leviathan gods have decided to smite me
rn going to build another prawn suit and see if that one is also broken
ok thats good the new prawn suit has a working interface
I figured out why I couldn’t deconstruct water filtration station despite it being empty.
There was a locker nearby💀
It wasn’t clipping or standing too close, but because of it I still got ‘storage not empty’ message.
got my things back
no jump jet because nickel is a pain to get
where should I banish my glitched prawn suit
I found a ton of nickel today under omega lab, couldn't believe it
like way way down, even managed to grapple kill a few of those guys who put you on an lsd trip
idk how else to describe it
first jump jet I had was premade though, might have found it on that robot island to the west, can't remember
either that or one of the wrecks
I don't really know where I'm going so I'm just kinda wandering the map
found most of the story locations but I still need to find ||the architect organs||
it is not in a fun place
I still can't find the skin blueprint
I think my best bet rn is crystal caves, but there's still this weird frozen underwater lab entrance I found near the robot place
tried drilling it, throwing stuff at it, ramming it, no good
you'd think a laser cutter would work
on a side note, the recyclotron is such a simple device to waste an ion cube on, but I don't regret it at all
also I'm watching Tron rn
especially since you can't recyclotron a recyclotron though
oh wait, you could just deconstruct it 🤔
how did you do that.
i must know your power.
by the way how tall is a vent garden.
if i may know.
there are ones that are leviathan class.. sooo frickin huge
look kinda like big jellyfish
most are ship size, one or two are size of a mountain
well.. including the legs
wait WHAT.
is that actual subnautica lore.
that is a TERRIFYING height for such a harmless animal.
i mean sure the reefbacks are giant as well but there based on whales im pretty sure. whales are generally fairly large animals. but why is the VENT GARDEN literally OVER 300 FEET TALL.
You need space for all those damned fish

For an additional perspective, reefbacks are around 30m
🤯
That's pretty big
wait i need a height perspective for the leviathans compared to the vent garden.
I've got a base near this one that's frickin huge.. just above an ancient relic
im thinking about making a base at the back of the aurora
Talk it in Normal subnautica chat
hard to take in what my world will be like without this thing.. I think there's one other, but that can be dealt with
Any tips for how I can get the body cache
Which one is that, help me remember, is that organs? @graceful ocean
Yea it’s the first organ you find for al-an I know where it is but going max depth I can afford with my seatruck and I have 2 hct but it’s still not enough
There’s ||skeletal, tissues, and organs||
Skele I believe under that mushroom pollen biome or whatever
Skeleton is the first one you find, in the deep lilypads area, where the cotton anemones are
So you’ve been there?
Where the statue and the place to reflect is
That one I have gone max depth I can afford with my seatruck and I’ve got 2 hco2t and I still die before reaching it
Depends on where a player explores it could be something else that's found first...but yes typically skeleton maybe the first to be found
Then upgrade seatruck depth module to be able to go deeper
You found the ultra tank fragments from the sea monkey nests in the lilypad caves in the same general area?
Okay so I need kyanite and silver ore for that and
What do you need to make the next seatruck depth upgrade
And no I haven’t found any ultra tank frags
You shouldn’t need the max seatruck depth to reach the skeleton place
I thought so but like I said with 2 tanks I still die before reaching it
You can drive all the way down there, almost to the door to the place (other than there’s a squidshark very close by)
If you’ve been to the pilot last known location and followed to its place of interest, you’ll get the seatruck perimeter defense
But I only have a max depth of 350 and that dosent get me close enough
300*
I’m sorry but I’m trying to get the recycletron and this is the last precursor tech I need to unlock the recipe
But this is the recipe for seatruck mk2, which allows you to go to 650m
It doesn’t require kyanite
@graceful ocean
Wait what I thought I had that already hold up
I only had mk 1 lol, I’m sorry to waste your time 😖
No worries, I’m glad we could work it out
Now maybe you’ll be able to get past this step
Subnautica or Subnautica bz?
(Fun and performance both)
I enjoyed both, but BZ is a follow up (not direct sequel, but makes more sense if you’ve played the first one). And many people enjoyed the first one more, although I still think both are amazing games. So I’d say if you could only pick one, Subnautica is definitely a solid choice
BZ has some great QoL improvements but now that Subnautica has had some of the things from BZ ported over, such as being able to pin recipes and the large basebuilding rooms, some of those things aren’t as much as a factor as they once were. Still you can’t go wrong (imo) with either one but Subnautica is still one you’d want to play first, regardless
Pipes are so damn janky in this game, is there a trick to making the pipe go straight down? At some point it just stops.
Why would you even bother using pipes though?
It took me 3 hpurs dude 3 hours to get the depth module mk2
Hours*
But I did manage to get the ||recyclotron|| I found a random sight while searching for ingredients.
What the hell were you doing for 3 hours there???
It cant possibly take THAT long to collect required materials and then create it.
Maybe looking for materials if you don't know where they are?
Why bother looking for something if you have no idea where is it?
Yeah. But koppa site is literally marked on the map.
So you are suposted to know its aproximate location.
i didnt get the map
Bruh.
i had no idea it existed until i checked a playthrough
correction: you didn't scan the map
i thought the map was in the phi robotics base
there's an ice land map there. Two low-res maps total
i guess you learn something new everyday
the first is in delta base
the island base?
yes
i'll look for it when i get below zero then
It is exactly this
whats the other one then? I'm sure this is the one at phi robotics
yes, that one shows the southern half of the land ice area, called glacial basin
yes. There are other docks
I hate Omega Base. I could not find it without a guide and spend so much time trying. It is also like super small. Very dissapointing considering the name.
name is just a letter lol
and u litterally just use a compass. game gives u a voice message that you are near a big rock, and u just explore it cos u know it has something
I got message about big rock when I was exploring ||Mercury|| and there are LOTS of big rocks.
Did not really help.
I get you, but that's the biggest rock of them
same as the peepers, they just goin'
but they go in a line
join it, maybe there's free burgers

due to prawn being nerfed to waste energy in mid air for moving, i can't
they were fish burgers anyway
just finished sub zero again 
well that makes two
there is 4 total of them
this place is pretty huge when you're not running for your life as the time
also, why are you wearing coldsuit?
er idk
you need fool body armor around this one
its easy
I just got out for the pic
safety advice: they are easier to scan when dead
You can scan if its alive
Nothing will happen
Oh man finally
Killed this damn chelicerate
My seatruck will be safe now
or maybe im just dumb and cant find it
i once almost lost my seatruck to a shadow leviathan
i save quited right out of there asap
enterior. idk building stuff is relaxing
They are too easy to kill
You got fancy home
I havent get those posters
I only focus on my bases so I dont get them
I like the seatruck posters
i like the purple lights
makes my cave man brain go brr
they are the best
I needlessly decorate my bases
maybe a bit too much
best bed fr fr
parvan end fred are my favs. and their stuff is the best
Yeah
yesh
I have their posters one of my storage bases But I dont know which one
everything in my base is pink by default
I have 4 storage bases I just forgot where I put those
you have a storage base-
beatiful setting
It may be much but totally I have 13 bases
Every biome
Thats the point of being a grinder
Yeah but 3 is starter bases
On lifepod
My very very first bases I ever made
others are Important
This mod is too nice
I Reccommend you guys
you can get baby leviathans in alien containment
Size Mod
markus would say it isn't enough. He has 23.
Thats nice
but 10 is enough for everything
Overpowered after finishing the playthrough
I have 5 seatrucks
give better ammount
what do u need all those for?
Its just good
3 of them fully has storage modules
I carried lots of plasteel ingots and titaniums
When I was going to make a base in crystal caverns
and fabricator caves
i hate making anything with lithium
Its hard only with multipurpose
my base is at phi so i have to go all the way to purple vents to find it
Oh
Lilypads is nice
yeah
The pads above sea level
Upgraded knife does the job
you know who has the worst posters? emanuel.
on the other hand, those fit that cringe corporate vibe
fr
yeah that
I wonder how many people miss this one time detail in the beginning of the game because they are looking away?
maybe emanuel doesn't own them, but those black background/meme motivation posters suck
yeah
they are scattered everywhere and i don't collect them
they are pretty boring
i still have them tho
i kinda collect posters
a bit off topic but where would you say the best place to build a base is?
alan can wait. i'm building the SUBNAUTICA TOILET тм
i found out that if you don't pick up his calls he will monologe the plot
fren
this is my two floor deep sea base
hey is it weird that i have a sea monkey baby in my inventory at all times?
i also have an aqaurium with four babys
I eat the plants when I'm there and cure the fish for travels
Living with Void chelicerates better than Iceworms
hey!
Just confirmed that here
Gonna send the whole void base
how is your base in arctic spires
@short garden
Where is your base in arctic spires
its in the first actual spire part
Hey, I just wanted to ask, why do I get some recipes in Below Zero just by entering some place (not scanning anything)? I was used to get recipes only by scanning things in classic Subnautica.
well that depends on what you mean
I learned you can put art inside an alien containment
Your fish thrive if you give them art
Different pda OS
This ai is much happier to violate copyright
The altera one was also corrupted
Which is why you start with basically nothing in base game
bruh this is frustrating
I spent the past 10 minutes trying to figure out a way to get up there
Builder tool is a thing 😆
it's be nice if grappler worked more like the one in Halo Infinite
the stabby worm nerds aren't helping
I wanna find the "natural" way
plus, building upwards above ground is a pain in the apse
It'll be a tunnel somewhere
Nah, there's a really good method
a method that doesn't involve building hatches and ladders?
Two I sections on the ground floor, vertical connector on each floor of the right, on the left do a hatch, hop on the vertical connector (one floor lower) and build another I section on the left
You need both sadly
yeah exactly - pain in the a$$
got it
But once you have the vertical stack, you can recycle the left bit
Watch it be 2 water bottles
no tunnels, just a rather long path along the cliffs
there's a ||snowfox worm attack reduction module||
it's why I came here
pretty sure it's the last thing I haven't discovered yet
I found kind of a weird solution to get across that big gap on that island, built a section that goes out just enough so I can jump across it, then one kinda higher up on the other side
This is my people
If you are not abusing the above surface hatch staircase what are you even doing
very useful for solar panel installation
it's so annoying how the arctic is absolutely full of silver/copper/lithium/magnetite/titanium veins, but getting things like lead takes absolute ages
why did one kelp dissapeared for no reason?
and yeah I built something in the first game that just went up and up, one side then the other, in an attempt to get inside the wrecked ship from above (it didn't work)
- wipes strand of kelp from his face *
Impossible to know
lol this is kinda dumb ngl
useful, but the description and the device itself sounds... lazy
it's like some magical doo-hickey that just somehow makes worms attack less often
don't think I've come across an ice worm yet
they're across the bridge
they only live across the bridge
I feel like a name like "Silent Engine Module" would be more fitting
does the same thing but there is an audio change and slightly increased power drain
well that was interesting..
hippity-hoppity the arctic void is now your property
floating foundation
What blueprints and where did you get without scanning (or picking some new material up for the first time)? You shouldn't get blueprints by just entering a base...or did you happen to scan habitat builder outside one of the bases and then walked in the base? Scanning habitat builder unlocks several blueprints, and there is a small delay as it first unlocks the habitat builder blueprint.
Let me guess "Cannot deconstruct. Deconstruct prawn suit first"🤣
"can't deconstruct, prawn suit in the way"💀 💀 💀
I guessed right, although with slightly different wording🤣
now it stood up!
Oh, thank you it was the habitat builder. It unlocks a lot of them and before it even showed up I already scanned some other things so I got confused. Are there any other things that unlock multiple blueprints?
Some stuff that requires complex ingredients - just unlocks the recipes for those ingredients.
Possibly because you have base pieces below on the other side
I was building a base that's eerily similar to yours just earlier today and has this issue
The rest of the base was like 50m lower, but it still didn't let me place foundations over it
You can, however, build base pieces below foundations, so some base configurations can only be built in a specific order
finally beat this sucker 😀
ending was so cool
Took me almost 2 years of off and on playing but after 22 hours and 14 minutes I have completed Below Zero
took me like 79 hours in little under two years
Still missing the achievement for building the cold suit and getting the jukebox discs
Glad I got to play below zero blind
Didn't do that for the first game but still enjoyed it
I looked at a map once or twice, that's about it
and I got kinda anxious toward the end so I looked up those yellow seed things for the skin
I picked some up really early on so I didn't need to go searching for them
I'm glad that the prawn suit is more stable and doesn't clip through terrain like it did in the original
I'm usually too busy trying not to drown, I never noticed they're down there
it's that long narrow cave system in the kelp forest with the little screamers
i wonder if table stays there when i come back tomorrow
Kinda wish you didn't have to have an extra sea truck module for playing the jukebox
lol I never even found all the propulsion cannon fragments
I like the concept but its just not very useful for 99% of things
hell I even had the propulsion thing for the prawn suit
really all you need is drill and grappling arm
even then the game is definitely beatable without the prawn at all
yeah, you don't need it at all, it only gives a couple of shortcuts at mercury and access to loot stash at phi robotics (that's all i found so far)
the fragments are in monkey nests
I couldn't take out those last two leviathans near the fabrication place, I tried then finally just swam past them
somehow they left the prawn suit alone the whole time I left it there at the door
you'd think they'd make the door a little bigger considering the size of the architect's body
aren't doors big?
There's also ||an ion cube deposit in the ice worm area that needs the drill arm to collect that gives you like 20 ion cubes||
yo what depth is ||the crystal cave|| and where do i find it
deeper than 1st seatruck depth module. search the purple vents caves (east/south-east)
so if i have mk 2 depth ill be fine?
ye it's enough to find kyanite for the 3rd module
|| It's kinda behind one of the wrecks ||, and it's pretty darn deep
reinstalled the game
I wonder if Subnautica 3 will pick up the story
He leaves
these games are so cool
Fr
if I had more time in my life, and didn't feel the hourglass ticking away lately
I'd gladly waste so much time in these worlds
😦
yeah I know, I mean I try and stay positive, games like this help 🙂
definitely
except when you turn a corner to see a warper floating 2 meters away from your prawn
and then it treats you with a deafening noise and teleports you out
i dont want any big spoilers but why do people seem to dislike below zero so much
ive been enjoying the game alot so far
Its way too different from OG game. People did not like it very much.
I felt the same at the beggining of my playthrough.
just started... where do I find the base building tool? I feel like that was a default recipe in the subnautica
It’s a different approach. And there are certainly some story issues, which you may not notice much of that at the beginning. Still doesn’t mean it’s not a very enjoyable and well made game. People often love a certain game experience, such as Subnautica, and when a next game deviates in ways from that experience, they don’t “like it” but eh, it’s fine, everyone can have their own opinion. Enjoyed both games immensely
There’s a few places. You can find one on delta island iirc, but if you’ve not discovered that yet, there’s one inside the tube kind of deep in twisty bridges next to where you find I think it’s the high capacity tank’s databox
I was there, I found a bunch there, but I guess I missed it
bah.. ok I'll go back
yep.. there it was... I just missed it
lol, just found the other one you were talking about
any good recommendations (just a general direction) to put a starting base down?
South. Near the island. It is central
(North = Volcano, and also the small moon is always north)
like north of the island? or south of the island?
I might have answered my own question
lol.. south of the island appears to be... dangerous
the black crocs are noisy, but not that bad
Hey uh I got a question
I have a theory that is about a character in BZ who was also in the original subnautica
Which channel do I say it in
Well I should say which channel can I say it in
Nvm then dead chat
there's only one character like that. You can mark spoilers: on PC select some text and click eye
This bz chat is probably better for that...
yes
Lol...well.. leviathan just snuck up on me...
oh... they "fixed" that funny exploit of being able to build a new tool using a dead battery...
With batteries yes, but you can still charge an ion cube by crafting a recyclotron
don't use more than 3 spoilers, the bot will get annoyed
Ok well copied the theory because it was done
Will it get deleted if it's just 1 huge message in 1 spoiler?
Well not really a huge message
no
Alright
||As most people know Marguerite Maida the sole survivor from the Degasi crew, she was of course infected by the disease that was cured by the emperor leviathan enzymes, but in one of the PDA logs you find from her talking about how she survived living inside of a dead reaper leviathan she killed, while she was still being affected by the disease there were the peepers that came through the vents that led to the containment facility and those peepers had a sparkling trail because they carried the enzymes in them, so my theory about how she got cured was she ate some of those enzyme carrying peepers and eventually fully cured herself||
There it is
Only theory that comes to mind as to how she got cured because the disease would've killed her by the time BZ takes place
yes, this has been mentioned before. Other theories: Eating leviathan meat - leviathans don't seem to get infected. Or just too badass to die.
Too stubborn
Natural immunity also happens
I still want to steal her prawn suit
Was typing a question then forgot what I was gonna say lol
Well anyways I just wanted to put my thoughts on that topic
Oh my
It's 1:30 am I need to go sleep lol
Top predators would end up with a lot of enzyme from the net of all their prey, and their preys prey.
When ||marguerite Maida started woman vs food with a reaper they gave themselves the reapers dose of enzyme, ||much of it not very cooked (if cooking does indeed destroy the enzyme as I imagine).
omg... are windows not a default recipe?
You are correct.
that's crazy... did I miss a scan on the island?
I don't remember if it's scannable on the island. It's in one techsite in Twisty Bridges.
The one with the high capacity tank databox.
You guys are overthinking it. And while I can't exactly say that Marguerite is immune to Khaara...
I can say that Khaara is defenetly not immune ro Marguerite.
The reason she is gud is bc the virus was scared of her
has anyone thought of modding the old versions with the old story to have an ending?
Comment on the last point: enzymes are proteins, and typically cooking denaturates (destroys function) proteins. There are some thermostable proteins though
The old story had an ending. Which was more or less the same as the new one.
It wasn't released publicly and was at an early stage.
I imagine cooking in a fabricator doesn't mess around either
lol what is this weather
Fog
yes but the early access fog is way more than normal
just average London weather
sad
i actually got quite far in the story
but i played hardcore & died bc theres no bladderfish in that build
Eh, the cryptosuches are more bark than bite tbh don’t worry abt that
Yeah so it says in PDA but they really like to bite.
They're like a two shot if you ram them with the truck
Maybe Reaper Leviathan sashimi doesnt sound so bad now
hmmmm
Can somebody help me my subnautica below zero wont start
properties -> betas -> legacy
Where?
are you on pc
Yes
steam?
No i have it on Xbox app
then idk
A i think on google playstore
Has it been changed? I feel like it's one-shot with seatruck...
||i got the skeleton and tissue for alans body thing but idk how to get the organs||
hint: crystal
dear god
i have had a nuclear reactor running for days now only and 2 rods and its still generating power like what
each rod is 20k power
oh my-
It also depends on what else you have.
about 8 solar panels
They aren't necessary drained at the same time.
what is the best power source actually?
guys help i accidentally let out 2 squid sharks near my base and im scared that they are going to eat my trivavles
well not accidentally
Remember that top predators are often full of any pollutants too.
Uninstall it and reinstall it?
i have always felt like certain leviathans would taste pretty good
||Baby Sea Emperor|| do look delicious
lol maybe
i think that chelicerate would taste pretty good tho
Chewy though
It'd be like a blobfish
Completely dissolve at surface pressure
I'm thinking pork like rather than anything crustacean
maybe!
They need fat for resistance to thermal shock
yeah
Pengling, complete trash meat, mostly bone
ice worm would make food for days tho
There is a dead one 🤔
yeah but that looks like its rotting
also just what could have killed it
i dont suspect snow stalkers ganging up on it
I just realized that the iceworm is literally sandworm but ice
Right, so there are 3 likely strands to this.
Bad graphics drivers (do you know what you have and how to get them)
Bad settings that the cloud is subjecting you to, your best bet is turning off cloud saves and deleting everything related to subnautica after uninstalling it, check my documents etc)
Or third you have a hardware issue (playing on old laptop? Dodgy ram? Do any other games fail)
Especially do you have other games through the ms store?
It uses weird drm'd exes on many games
I have it on ms store and its also in Xbox app
On pc
That's fine, but the 3 points are where I'd look first?
Okay gimme time
Ping me if you want when you get the deets 🫡
Do you have the first game?
Yes of course i do
You'll grab two files from there and copy them to the BZ folders.
Subnautica\Subnautica_Data\Plugins\x86_64\lib_burst_generated.dll
Subnautica\Subnautica_Data\Plugins\x86_64\UnityUWE.dll
The actual duck is BZ folder
The installation folder for Below Zero.
If you have Subnautica from the MS store as well it should be close.
You need to replace the two dlls in the Below Zero folder with the ones from Subnautica.
I explained the details there: https://steamcommunity.com/app/848450/discussions/0/5875531492212980974/.
Since you can't switch to Legacy with MS store, you can use the dlls from Subnautica they'll work fine as it's the same code, more or less.
One more nice day with my 3 bois
how welcoming
They should put some lotion on that.
just booted up my world after 1.5 years of not playing, i think i made it halfway through the game
i dont think this is normal
It is there’s 2
where's the second one? i only found 1 at phi
Idk actually
currently going through most things to remember where im at because i genuinely dont remember what else i have to do
Last thing I remember was going on land, and I've met margaret before
Are you supposed to be able to put ion cubes on these at the portal next to phi
Hi, new here, and just finishes off both the first and below zero. Both for the second time. idk why below zero feels meh and Subnuatica still slaps hard. I can still go for third time subnautica but for below zero don't know. Just my thoughts
bz has tones of talking, a smaller map and everything is lit up. it really affects things imo
Umm, kinda yeah you need to put an ion cube but not from this side of the portal that is next to phi. You need that from another side that is, let me remember, umm in artic spires somewhere.
Yeah, it did kinda affects. Also As I know what to exactly do, for the second time I like go places/biomes only one time and finish task and done with it. Ice worm, just heard it not saw it, shadow Leviathan, only saw two and easy dough to seatruck perimeter defence thing. It feels like gta sorta. Go here there and do mission. The first sub aslo like this but that feels fun or chills to play, the lost river to sea emperor everything I can't forgot those feeling, even though I know what gonna happen.
Don't worry, I'm not bashing below zero. I love below zero alot most for its beauty alone. And cool concepts to ice worm and shadow they were so cool. I will still go to my save games to just only see them. Even sea monkey are so cool for me.
Thats a cool life for a sub player. I never invested much time on base building. But will sometime in future.
I gave alot of time on bases
I already finsihed everything
Also Beated game many time so I dont want to start another playthrough
Only grinding in 1 world
Cool. I just finished my second playthrough with both the game. And decided will play the first one again sometime soon.
Fabricator Caverns is a nice place for base Only thing is theres multiple shadow leviathans which can attack the seatruck from back but they can be killed with prawn suit drill arm easily
I can reccommend fabricator caves
But It may be a late game base
I never killed a leviathan. Never even thought about it.
Im Slaying Every leviathan I see
some people says that its a ''skill issue''
but its funny
no ones gonna stop me killing them
Oh, I see u r a subnautica veteran.
Yeah
I’m not subnautica veteran because I don’t enjoy spending 10ish minutes drilling 😔
It takes 5 mins also not only that
where can I find these room whatever it is blueprints in below zero?
I don’t like prawn noises and in bz it’s even louder.
You need to find bases
You can Check delta island or outpost zero
for multipurpose
Game will give you delta station beacon
On zero too
Its just nothing I have sounds closed
not fully closed its low
yeah ik that
i arrived there but i didnt see any bases
and i couldn't reach to the top
For early game the best place I go find base blueprints is outpost zero. Its like right there very close.
You will also get databoxes and pdas
Delta is easier
Noted.
Both is easier if you know where to look
cant find the way
But For story point of view outpost zero feels that it meant to be last place to be discovered by the player. So..
i could go on vc quick if you could show me the way
Not really, you discover it by going to places from delta map.
and i also found ion cube while going around this island which i don't think i was supposed to find in first 2 hours of playing below zero lol
okay i think i found the way, also prawn suit jumpscare
Ion cube, I was surprised to see prawn suits fragments there. Too early. And for my first time in below zero I did find it early on before Delta. I'm a just big explorer, I was looking every single area before going Delta and this happens.
Cant rn
i found it, thanks
And also speaking of first 2 hour finding ion cube. Actually u r supposed to find not only 1 but more of ion cubes in your first 2hr, in case if you have meet the guy or the thing whatever.
dont worry they dont bite
is there a way to like move your lifepod with a command or like force deconstruct something? says my lifepod is in the way of deconstructing my hatch
Does anyone know how many times bz's story was changed from ea to release?
Twice. The first change was more minor.
I kinda wish they stuck with one of the earlier versions of the story tbh
was the game updated recentl]
most recent update was the what the dock update
how long ago
september
Ask over in the #subnautica-modding server in the #mod-discussion channel to get better responses
https://submodica.xyz though has some BZ mods that are not on Nexus that are real good
A lot of people say that. But they forgot that the community complained about the first story and that's the reason it was redone in the first place.
oh. I wasnt there for that. a shame really, I liked that version. or at least, what remains of it on the wiki.
oh man... I'm a couple hours in, and I really need the external grow beds...
so painful to go back and forth like 1km to get stuff that grows in the shallows
Here, depth maybe 20m. Or find Omega base
I have only had the oculus quest two for a few weeks and I am wondering how do you download submodica below zero on it
|| I found the omega base, but haven't been past 200m inside the hole ||
thanks, I'll explore, it seems easy to miss things!
I have only had the oculus quest two for a few weeks and I am wondering how do you download submodica below zero on it
al-an stopped sending me the location of artifacts, what do I do?
You explore. Especially around the locations he gave. Don't expect him to drive your game, he won't
it's hard to do that with thalassophobia but ok lol
if you are on PC, and always seeing the bottom helps, press F8, F3, turn on "water volume"
thanks
I bought Below Zero today but for some reason it barely wants to work with my Dualsense controller. I can barely get the analog stick to interact with the menu and in actual gameplay the camera keeps looking up and spinning. How can I fix this?
I can get the first Subnautica to work with my controller just fine so I do not understand what is going wrong with Below Zero.
and please no one say "just use the keyboard and mouse". I have grown up using controllers to play videogames. Using a keyboard and mouse to play anything on pc with gameplay more complicated than a point and click is basically impossible for me.
just use a better controller
Using a mouse since 1984, I am a bit biased
20m or 200m?
20! on top of twisty bridges
slash for a seed. they aren't useful
oh
They are oddly, just chilling out on a platform quite close to the start
Can you use steam big picture mode?
Pardon me, but does anyone know if Below Zero is still receiving updates if you bought it on Discord?
Oh, on discord, ignore me
Discords ill fated store 😆
I can. Why?
where is the base-attached air pump? I think that was a default recipe in subnautica
Wired
Huh
You updated its firmware?
That caught me out
It's kinda useless on a few non ps5 devices without that update
it's gone. Surprised you miss it. Just power a base, it makes air
Base attacked pump pumps out air to a hose
It's kinda trash
well... the tubes. Honestly I didn't use the tubes much last game either
the floating pump is there
I'm too deep...
but ya, just making a 1x1 with a bioreactor or something...
By "its", do you mean my controller or the game?
would be controller. firmware is a chip with software in it
where do you find windows ?
any base, such as where you found large o2 tank
Steam update notes mentioned a controlller config fix
@ocean merlin this ^
oh, really, like I just didn't stare directly at the window? 🤦♂️
~omega~ koppa mine reaction - || I'm a bit disappointed in it, it was underwhelming, but hey, I got a prawn suit now ||
|| I'm also a bit disappointed in myself in how long it took me to explore it, there is easy diamond at 100m ||
OH... well then...
yes
|| is there anyway to open that door to get in/out easier? going to be a PITA to transport all the materials out ||
ya, that's where I found the diamonds, but I don't think that's big enough for a prawn...
Okay, based on my game's version I'm certain it is no longer receiving updates on Discord; so another question I have is would I be able to import my save file over to steam if I rebuy the game over there?
I don’t have BZ but is it worth getting while it’s on sale
It may not be on sale anymore anyway
Yes!!
Still, I would prefer to be on the latest version and have the piece of mind that I'll be able to download any potential future updates.
can't you get the jan 10 update?
What The Dock, with the seatruck dock
You can look for this: this is what saves look like in steam. SNappdata in the app folder
if it looks like that, it should work. But open BZ and keep it open when modifying. Else steam cloud will undo your changes
I'm on version 45391 and I can't find anything on Discord that would update it.
I'll try to find those files though, I know Discord has a Games folder, so I assume they would be in there.
Epic saves location: A likely place
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero\SubnauticaZero\SavedGames
is there a way to have my old account that I got locked out of kicked from the server
maybe. can you prove it was yours?
I don't know what's going on... I'm on delta island, but I can't scan the windows on these bases... I have no idea how to get a window. 😦
sorry, I wasn't sure you could scan them. Omega, or the 120m deep little base in twisty
Yup! That is it, thank you for the assistance! ❤️
because if you look at the connections of both of the accounts my YouTube channel is connected to both basically saying that I own both of the accounts
they need to make a system if someone gets locked out of their account they can show proof and have the second verification removed
yep... that was it... that's so weird... you'd think that part would be default or just everywhere...
It's a little odd yes
kicked, not banned
yeah basically have the account kicked from server
do you think they're going to do that for me
I did it
is there a way to make disinfected water? or just bladder fish for filtered water?
no, but you can craft large filtered water with frost vase plants
https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Water_Purification_Tablet
Water Purification Tablets are an item, which can be combined with snowballs to create Large Filtered Water. The blueprint for this item is unlocked by acquiring the item from Supply Crates in the Glacial Basin, Phi Excavation Site and Phi Robotics Center. It is crafted in the Fabricator.
Okay i didn't really wanna come to this but, Anyone also experiencing troubles when just launching SBZ on steam client? Despite trying everything. Still doesn't have any improvements. Its been 3 hours and i just want to continue the franchise mannn pls help.
Could be your CPU and the update. You certainly didn't focus on the issue here. Explain
Do you get the black warning screen? This is caused by outdated mods
Does it not launch at all? Then go in steam library, game properties, betas, pick "Legacy" at the top. Test
Nope. I never have used any sorts of mods in the past since both games are brand new. And black screen doesn't happen because the program doesn't even open at all
tried rn. And black screen, I'll try CPU options
you get a black screen now? And it stays up?
yep
ok, please rename file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero\SubnauticaZero_Data\Plugins\x86_64\lib_burst_generated.dll
rename so it becomes invisible to the game
alr. Btw do i need to restart my pc when changing options to running as admin and changing running capacity?
no
alr
admin is usually not required
alright. I've updated my GPU and renamed program files and is about to reboot my pc, Thanks community.
working then?
Very cool. Can you go in options / troubleshoot and give me the cpu name?
yes
in a second
There's no real drawback with Legacy, you still have the latest update
And this mess getting it working obviously wasn't planned
oh like my actual CPU?
and btw, I've tried launching the game selecting betas into none and it still doesn't launch there. Is there a problem with that still?
yes, inadvertently requiring a modern CPU
ah yes Pentium Gold. That's an office class CPU. This is why, but Legacy will work just fine
i see
yeah it is. I guess i needed an upgrade, I've only been just focusing on my memory and GPU, thought i'd be minimal for system req
thus do i need another CPU in order to play the game with no betas at all?
currently yes. But why? The Early access versions should run, and Legacy is very recent, only differs in CPU requirement
also SN should work as is
No, just hypothetical. I guess just in case I encounter any bug related issues? I really love this franchise down to heart yk
I see, anyways thanks for your time
The controller, without updated firmware steam can't see it.
Explains how to update the firmware for the wireless controller for PlayStation®5 using a Windows PC.
you can fly in prawn suit in bz. it seems easier than in sn (but idk about pro flying strats so maybe i'm doing it wrong)
NAW WTF
first time playing so i wanted to see stuff in creative
now im falling for 1000 meters....
i wonder whats below
||WTF ARE THOSE||
oh lord no
no im leaving
how am I supposed to even beat those in normal mode?
4 green balls. Cannot identify. Also Perimeter Defense is how
and "beat" - you are not meant to kill anything big
also, how long am I supposed to keep falling untill I reach whatever is down there?
sure seems boring, been falling for ages
not really meant to go there, it's off map
wait what
in survival, you are killed by monsters
deepest legit spot is 960m
OH WOW
4067 meters so far
time to set a world record
a map would spoil and shorten your game. You sure?
wait
nah i wouldnt want that
would suck the fun out of the game, especially since that ruined the og subnautica for me
you do get two low-res maps on walls. Scan them. Those are fine
oh alright
well so far im on ||delta station dock ||but im too scared to go there since last time I saw ||some stingray mf|| (normal playthrough)
i guess ill try it but
hope I dont die
you may get a grumpy lady play a message. ignore her warning
if i do make it there alive in the first place lol
how did u get a table there-
used propulsion cannon
i drag stuff to my bases using propulsion prawn arms. if you place objects on foundations and other base components they won't disappear.
thats quite funny
i posted pics of me riding that table in the air
i saw that
in original sn you can move even more objects..... one more reason to complain about bz imho.
such fun to find things to complain about
only as a joke. if i say "littEraLy uNplAyable" and actually mean it, then why am i having good time?
In meatie's defense that is a very common complaint.
I just realised Emmanuel’s bed is covered with alterra logos and it’s not just a a cool minimalistic design.
I get it. He’s super mega alterra guy.
Or custom, that also gives no achievements, at least if certain options are selected
yes. Always no achievements
Building a base down there?
funny, you can pick jellyfish out of water and toss them on the land. still alive.
Uh, what is the square predator swimming around me?
Geometric danger
That is called a geometry dash player
gAme LitEraLly unplaYeble - can't put my truck poster in the extremely specific place i want it to be 
building tweaks mod lets you override that
Building Tweaks mod is a mod that’s a mod that exists that does that lets you that overrides does override building as Tomtores is the said
im still trying to understand what you just said
Install Buildingtweaks mod to force the game to ley you build anywhere. Like moonpools on dry land. Foundations touching ground. Compartments firmly attached to rock walls etc.
Is there a place to make a ticket for support?
Since when is there a slow mode?
since forever
Nah i call 🧢
The devs moved on to next game. It is not likely you will get any response.
Well even if they dont respond am I able to make a ticket?
Isn't there a 'report bug' button in the game menu?
There's no place to make a support ticket for the Subnautica games. You can report a bug in #🐞bug-smash but that won't be handled individually or is likely to get a response. If you have any issues it's best to just ask about them here, on Reddit, on a forum if your platform has one (Steam discussions for example).
There are feedback tickets, but those don't get a response and aren't meant for support either. They are to let the devs in general know something may be wrong or that you liked something. Those aren't useless in general to report something but definitely aren't meant for support.
Damn okay
Ok, feedback, not bug report in the game menu
well its a long shot but does anyone know how to transfer save files to Steam from Xbox, Below Zero got taken off of gamepass and I already own it on steam and I don't want to have to buy & install it to access my saves.
Reporting a bug is in some way feedback too. It happens often that people do it anyway but it's impossible to keep track of them all.
Directly from an Xbox it self is not possible I believe. Unless you meant from the PC variant of their store? Then I think you might be able to nicely ask @bold monolith . If I remember correctly he has a tool to convert those saves? Might not remember correctly though 😅
Not sure if he's still awake though. It's rather late for us 😄
I do mean the Xbox Store, yes
Hey, @bold monolith Would it be possibly to use your save-converting tool when availible?
What is the order of magnitutude for average total titanium on the map? 1k pieces? 10k pieces?
define "finished"
fin·ished
/ˈfinəSHt/
adjective
(of an action, activity, or piece of work) having been completed or ended.
"a preparatory drawing for the finished painting"
(of a person) having completed or ended an action or activity.
"they'll be finished here in an hour"
having lost effectiveness, power, or prestige.
"he was told he was finished at the club"
Did you find out what happened to your sister? Did you finish what she started?
found the log in icy cave?
Yes im pretty sure I've did everything story wise
monke is good
Monke
but why monke brings me quartz now? my pinned recipes don't include quartz or any glass
could it be because of my unfinished large lockers?
ummmm i just sequence broke the game so hard with the prawn suit
could just be random stuff because you don't have anything pinned
ya know how you are supposed to put hydraulic fluid into the bridge? i just jumped that with prawn suit and grappling arm
lol same
😉
Not really a sequence break, more so just skipping a step
yea
i didn't notice the can and stuff, tried jumping it with snow fox
huh
failed. it's not enough. but prawn can fly.
ikr
indeed.
emeralds?
in the architect tissue area
no. but what if propulsion works?
idk
is there a jump jet upgrade i can aquire in bz? i dont need to know where or how just wanted to know if it exists
i have no idea
yes, prawn has jumping upgrade.
I also heard they stack, didn't try myself
if you mean ion cubes, then yeah there are some drillable deposits.
ok thanks
I need helping finding a habitat builder if anyone knows where I can find one? Navigating is so much of a chore without a base to settle in
at the delta base
LET'S GOO!
you sure because I looked everywhere and I can't find it
on a crate
On a box outside the living quarters rooms at delta, it’s not inside. There’s also one inside a tube fairly deep in twisty bridges where you find the high capacity tank databox
How do i connect a seatruck dock
The only time it's green to build is when it's touching none of the base, can't seem to connect it anywhere
needs to be completely underwater afaik
your other base is too high(
what do i do after i go to the phi robotics?
it gives the map of the area but then i cant find that area
can you build down with vertical connectors
you can, but only from outside
bro im jamming with the juke box
So can i somehow connect my half out of the water base to this dock or nah
are they in same grid?
Disasemble the dock and one I corridor piece. make vertical connector from the I corridor at the base, or even build an I corridor directly below but turned 90 deg. connect truck dock to that
ladder
Wait the ladder finally worked
hmm
Yeah I was trying for a min, wrong spot i think, it worked
awesome tysm
Wow this dock is hella nice
ikr
it reacharges and repairs the truck. can also visit the modules while docked
bro im hella scared, im going into the crystal area, just waiting for a shadow leviathan to eat me
then again im in a prawn suit
so idk
that thing will try to eat you and do damage
pretty
wrng file and now i'm upset about quality going down again
why is pepper plant so off-center?
omg
why are interior growbeds 4 titanium when exterior ones are only 2
idk
and exterior growbeds on land fit more of the same plants
I prefer interior if I don't want to turn into a popsicle when farming.
i have now killed 3 shadow leviathans
Very nice, it is a shame I haven’t ported EdibleLeviathans mod to below zero
what?
I made EdibleLeviathans for subnautica but I haven’t made a BZ version yet
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1012967749045190696/1075376689485459517/image.png
imagine if sn had carcasses like irl so that crabs and others come to eat it
huh
like not just have a dead leviathan just disappear but actually make it interesting
Yeah having the locals feed on its body
Can someone test something in creative for me real quick? Try and build a moonpool above water.
unless creative removes build restrictions, moonpool does not work over water
Alright that's what I needed, thanks. Looks like that "feature" was backported to SN1.
building tweaks mod disables that restriction
#1 building tweaks promoter here, and es doing it for free
Just keep in mind that if you install building tweaks, every mod by people who’s names start with R are good mods to accompany building tweaks
huh
bro looking at that edible leviathan mod, im just imagining the character shoving a reaper leviathan in her pocket
Makes it funnier since you actually can drop the leviathans and pick them back up
lmfao
that's what maida did
bro i needa do a submodica run after i finish below zero
if i can get my hands on The Rise Of The Ancients that would be amazing lol
Now I'm imagining that pocket sand meme with Dale from KOTH but it's Marg throwing a pocket reaper 😂
lol
whelp i needa go back down and kill some more shadow leviathans to make our boi alan
uh oh
it just dont render
my alan will wait. i have to decide where furniture could be placed in a room.
might actually be a problem with my settings
its kinda a thing with settings
higher settings just changes the distance that it disappears
huh
bro i beat subnautica below zero
ngl i kinda spedrun it
on accident
in 13 hr 45 min
bruh it took me 3 days to beat lmfao
How do you go from driving the sea truck to swimming vs going from driving to inside and have to actually exit the sea truck? It seems like it just randomly does one or the other
Have a module attached.
Now try on custom game mode with 2x aggression and 2x damage
It depends on the tilt of the Seatruck, if you parked it at too much of an angle it’ll make you swim
Ahh ty! that makes sense
maybe not yet
gonna do a modded subnautica run
I should probably finish my Below Zero run with 2x aggression and 2x damage
Really wish they added the custom game mode option to SN1 but it seems like it would take too much time and they’d rather focus on the next game
Modders got you (specifically, since you got PC) covered
Below Zero is beautiful, except i can't find any ICE WORM (found some Snow Stalker thou)
wormy dude is north of the bridge
Luckyyyyyyyyy
Agreed. Very lucky.
Has anyone had problems with the seatruck perimeter defense not working on leviathans?
Are you using it before or after they grab onto the truck?
I haven't, though I also haven't use it a lot.
If you zap it too early, the leviathan will still grab you and do damage before you can charge and zap again. You need to time it right
It doesn't work no matter when i zap.
Just avoid and get past them
Cheese it with prawn or go the intended way
Yes, they can be killed quite easily with the seatruck. Just ram it (about 20 times). But for normal story game play this is completely unecessary as the seatruck perimeter defense does an excellent job. 0% damage when zapped when the chewing animation starts 🙂
