below-zero-chat

[carmine bobcat]

oooh so its kinda the same as the first game

[west mountain]

Yes, but pay attention. There are some recipies chanced and some you dont need blue prints for all, e.g. compass has changed a lot and is very useful from the beginning

[carmine bobcat]

i cant open my other game cause i am getting eaten by a shadow leviathan in the red ruby area and im out of my suit thing i paused before i died then i deleted the game and the was last may 10th

i have 19 hours on my other game

[unkempt scroll]

Bruh did you seriously just deleted your save file bc of just that???

[valid compass]

would be the equivalent of jamming to the music as your cyclops is going down in the 1st game XD

[west mountain]

There is a new unstuck button in the menu, can you use that one to get out of the situation?

[carmine bobcat]

i didnt delete it

i deleted the game itself

i saved but deleted the game cause i was to scared that the giant worm black thing was eating me

what are the really loud ish and they dash at you and they are white and red monsters

near the lilypad place

[unkempt scroll]

You should not be scared of them. They should be scared of you.

[carmine bobcat]

nah its huge

in the ruby biome place i could maybe send a screen shot lol

[valid compass]

did I understand it correctly, you saved as you were getting eaten and then deleted the game?

[carmine bobcat]

yeah lmao

[valid compass]

doom music starts playing

[unkempt scroll]

I fail to see how that contradicts what I said earlier.

[sleek timber]

ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: World's Dumbest Base

[valid compass]

yoo I like it

[unkempt scroll]

I hate it so much.

[carmine bobcat]

wait guys

[unkempt scroll]

What is that?

[carmine bobcat]

i just logged in to my game and im at my base and my sea truck and prawn suit are 1024meters away

[west mountain]

Its called the waterfall principle

[sleek timber]

I set myself the goal of making a base that gives me direct access from water to the top of the glaciers

[valid compass]

welcome aboard captain

[sleek timber]

I hate the vertical build limit. So annoying

[unkempt scroll]

Well I suppose it does…

[west mountain]

Either you go collect them or build a new one

[carmine bobcat]

i have speakers blasting music in my base

how do i change this stuff

[unkempt scroll]

JukeBox.

[west mountain]

Thats a high as it can get. Very sad indeed.

[carmine bobcat]

were would that be

oh never mind im stupid i found it

[sleek timber]

higher than I expected tbh

[carmine bobcat]

the one on right now is called deep dive i think

[sleek timber]

because to me it seems like you can only go 6 segments above the ground/water

[west mountain]

Or here, thats max hight too

[carmine bobcat]

whats the best juke box song

[sleek timber]

yeah I'm really surprised it lets you build there, considering how high up some of the pieces are

but you can build on top of the island, right?

[unkempt scroll]

JukeBox one.

[carmine bobcat]

okok

[west mountain]

I could build that one room but could not go above it.

[sleek timber]

like, you can't build higher on the right side where all the glass tubes are, but you should be able to build to the left, no?

[carmine bobcat]

im blasting jukebox one rn

[west mountain]

Correct, it does not let you add anymore components on top, no matter where

[sleek timber]

ok that's not what I was saying though

I need to experiment with that

[carmine bobcat]

does the sea truck dock pick up modules? cause last time i played it didnt and one got crushed and disapeard

[west mountain]

It does when you approach them in reverse gently. But many players have lost modules like that too. Probabely also because the modules where damaged, I dont know. I never lost a module like that.

[west mountain]

let me know what you came up with

[carmine bobcat]

mine wasnt damaged it was just in a poo spot so it got crushed

[sleek timber]

my point is that there isn't a global height limit like in minecraft. If you start building on land at the glacial basin, you can go 5-6 "blocks" up and not even reach halfway to the top of the glaciers, but if you manage to climb onto the glaciers, then you can build a whole base there

[west mountain]

Yes, it seems to happen

[sleek timber]

so it's not "height above sea level" but "height above the ground directly below"

[west mountain]

I thing its a global height limit, but lets find out.

[unkempt scroll]

Why do you guys even need bases so high???

[west mountain]

For the view and to give ||Maidas greenhouse some company||

[carmine bobcat]

i have a moon pool whats a sea truck dock

im so confused right now

[west mountain]

Another dock that was added. You can drive your entire seatruck with modules inside

[sleek timber]

well like I said, my goal here was to have a base that allows me to quickly go from the sea to arctic spires without navigating all the tunnels and ravines

but it's mostly for the hell of it

to see what's possible

[carmine bobcat]

what actually

has there been any updates recently?

[sleek timber]

a few months ago

[unkempt scroll]

You can’t place your seatruck in Moonpool.

So they added seatruck dock.

[carmine bobcat]

yee

[sleek timber]

without modules you can

[west mountain]

I put dozends of light sticks to mark a west arctic highway system. Pretty fast like that

[carmine bobcat]

i have it in there right now innocent

il send photo

[unkempt scroll]

A bit late tbh. You would think it should be in game from the start.

[carmine bobcat]

thats in a moon pool i think

[west mountain]

Yes

[unkempt scroll]

Yeah. It’s without modules though.

[carmine bobcat]

inoccent said i couldnt put the truck in the moon pool

oh yea

[sleek timber]

if you can build a moonpool, you can also build a seatruck dock
https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Seatruck_Dock

[west mountain]

With modules attached. They detach automatically when you try to enter

[carmine bobcat]

i got my prawn suit on my module

my other storage one got destroyed

[west mountain]

I have two moon pools, one for the seatruck and one for the prawn

[west mountain]

Build a new one

[carmine bobcat]

i think im just going to restart

so i remember the whole story

[west mountain]

Good decision

[carmine bobcat]

is freedom mode for bad players

[unkempt scroll]

U sure a good idea?

[unkempt scroll]

Yes.

[carmine bobcat]

or do i choooooooooooosee hardcorreeeeeeee

[west mountain]

Its without story

[unkempt scroll]

So don’t play in freedom mode.

[carmine bobcat]

oh no story

[unkempt scroll]

Yes. Chose hardcore.

[carmine bobcat]

thats trash

[west mountain]

Make survival, its the best. No need to do hardcore

[carmine bobcat]

ima do survival

hard core is to hard for me

im a robot

[west mountain]

its frustrating

[carmine bobcat]

i love this game its just scary sometimes" more than half the time" and its kinda hard to know where to go

is the robot you build nice or no

[unkempt scroll]

It’s not scary at all.

Don’t know what you are talking about.

[carmine bobcat]

the first is

reapers

[sleek timber]

@west mountain I marked some examples of where I can't place additional tubes.
As you can see, I can't build higher at one point, but then I build a few modules to the side (where the ground is higher up) and suddenly I can build higher again.

[unkempt scroll]

Not scary. Next.

Wait there are no reapers in BZ

What are you talking about lmao.

[eternal garnet]

The reaper sound is the perfect scary noise

[valid compass]

nothing is more scarier than a reaper imo xD

[carmine bobcat]

first things first ..... bladder fish

[unkempt scroll]

Bruh.

[carmine bobcat]

the baby ghost leviathians got me good bro i had no clue they were there when i tried the first game lol

[valid compass]

I find them so cute for some reason

[carmine bobcat]

fr

but not when your not expecting them lol

[valid compass]

still cute. A "oh hi how you doin" moment

[carmine bobcat]

big discovery guys i found leadddddd

[unkempt scroll]

Well I suppose I do find ghost leviathans rather appealing as well.

Only when they are dead though.

[carmine bobcat]

ommmgggg

guess what i just crafted

[unkempt scroll]

No.

[carmine bobcat]

my very first crafted item btw

[lime grove]

water

[carmine bobcat]

i just crafted fins 2 times

god dang it

[lime grove]

there is a thing later in the game which will help

[carmine bobcat]

rebreather or something?

scannnweerrrrrr

some snake fish thing just stole my knife wth

[lime grove]

chase it

[carmine bobcat]

i got a seeeeglider

[topaz gate]

Just finished below zero, can't wait for Subnautica 3

[eternal garnet]

[topaz gate]

[unkempt scroll]

Did you like it?

[topaz gate]

Yeah

The end was amazing

[valid compass]

yeee, the end is hype

[carmine bobcat]

im sad cause i know the ending to both games yet never beat them

idied

im at the first alien base i think

[unkempt scroll]

How do you know it then?

[carmine bobcat]

video like jacksepticye

i got a frickin alien inside of me now

[eternal garnet]

what did the manual say about letting aliens touch your brain

[carmine bobcat]

idk lol

[viral knot]

i knew subnautica ending before i played it

better, i knew almost the whole storyline and everything

i've promised myself not to do that with below zero

and i still do not know what is gonna happen at the end which is great

[eternal garnet]

maybe this:|| ||

[carmine bobcat]

i wont spoil it

[eternal garnet]

did you click? do it

[carmine bobcat]

its really good though i just havent got the commitment to play the whole game

i didnt use to but know i do and ima beat it all

where can i find gold in bz

[vivid tapir]

[west mountain]

Seamonkey caves, thermal spires, twisty bridges

[vivid tapir]

Minecraft

[viral knot]

I had to think

[viral knot]

yes pls

i do not want to know anything from storyline

[carmine bobcat]

dont worry

got a seaa truck

im cruising rn

[viral knot]

i need to get lithium again

that means i'll have to meet this funi shark again

[sleek timber]

same, I watched a playthrough of the whole thing. But it was years ago, and I wanted to experience it myself anyway

forgot about a lot of the things by then

[viral knot]

me too but i remember everything even up to this day

and it was good couple years ago

[sleek timber]

from BZ the only thing I remembered was the jumpscare on the island, the worms, and the vent gardens

oh and the ending

[viral knot]

i only knew about cherlice and ice worm and well the beginning

i might aswell go check out ||signals that alan uploaded to my pda|| today

[eternal garnet]

also check their general area. This is an important purpose of them

[viral knot]

general wjhat

[eternal garnet]

check the area they are in. Their purpose is basically to get you to explore there

[viral knot]

oh, good to know that

ig i'll probably find something useful there

[carmine bobcat]

man i havent played in a year and i got a sea truck in the first 49 minutes of playing

[viral knot]

how to steer drone

[eternal garnet]

pengling? WASD. Do not get it wet.

oh. Use the remote control

[viral knot]

no

the drone made in scan room

[eternal garnet]

you control it from the wall in scanner room

[viral knot]

hmmmm

[valid compass]

what happens if you get it wet? Does it explode or?

[eternal garnet]

it explodes yes

[valid compass]

nice imma do it

[eternal garnet]

also do not feed it after midnight. Movie reference

[valid compass]

aw man, idk the reference

[eternal garnet]

Sad. Gremlins

[viral knot]

how can i get there?

i do not see any canyon or something

[clever crow]

you need to find it in caves

[eternal garnet]

go down a hole into the kelp roots. Scan every monkey nest, they are vital.
Video if you need https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFGkTbm3fv0

[viral knot]

im trying to go even deeper, i scanned one already

[eternal garnet]

one? No. Scan ALL of them

[viral knot]

i only saw one

[eternal garnet]

monkeys collect alterra artifacts and builds nests with them

[broken badge]

Some of those caves are very twisty

[viral knot]

like this gravity gun or something?

[broken badge]

Use seaglide map

[viral knot]

what after i scanned the ||X3J||?

[eternal garnet]

yes,. that's one of them things you can find.
Scan more as you go out

[broken badge]

No I just mean the seaglide map helps you see the cave layout

The cave networks can be very extensive in places

[viral knot]

ik

[viral knot]

i got the laser thingy

[vivid tapir]

ok

i got done with my somewhat greenhouse

im pretty proud of it

[valid compass]

really pretty! Love the wall planter. I added them to my moonpool (one on either side) and I can't believe how this one simple change made it look so much more welcoming

[vivid tapir]

i know right! I added some onto the doorway into my base

[valid compass]

this one peeper chilling up there almost my entire play-through. Even I can't go there! (its not even in water)

[vivid tapir]

i have one too

[valid compass]

yessss

[viral knot]

man i want this room

trying to build somewhat better base

[vivid tapir]

i was thinking to move my moon pool up another floor

so i can have a view of my exterior garden

[valid compass]

this is mine

[vivid tapir]

Insane

[valid compass]

definitely share if you do that :D

[vivid tapir]

Welp time for more metal scrap hunting for titanium and lithium

And quartz too for glasses

Since my base kinda just cramps rn

[viral knot]

how can you paint vehicles and bases?

[barren crown]

Is there anyway to refill reactor rods?

[vivid tapir]

Yea

That's why u can see the craft recipes on my screen

[valid compass]

at the vehicle modification console, can only be placed in a moonpool. Idk about bases tho

[vivid tapir]

Always gotta keep it in touch

Just in case

[vivid tapir]

I wanted to paint it seamoth color

[valid compass]

did you do it?

I keep changing colors based on my mood xD

[vivid tapir]

not yet

[carmine bobcat]

is there anything i should do before ||leaving with alan?|| endgame spoiler

[clever crow]

finishing sam's job?

[warm forge]

whenever i played subnautica, i used freedom mode because i felt like survival was too hard

on freedom the furthest i got was making a alien containment in my base that goes into the dunes

dobule insanity

o wait this is bellow zero

i did do some concel command stuff on below zero on creative mode at one time

grammar i get it

and i spawned some squidsharks and a chelicerate in the west arctic

[steel stream]

@viral knot bases can be colored when you build a control room (need to find blueprint first)

[valid compass]

ohh I see

[vivid tapir]

@valid compass there i relocate it

[valid compass]

love the addition of windows with it

[vivid tapir]

and it lead to my greenhouse

so cozy

@valid compass i will move my greenhouse to a large room

[valid compass]

yee can have more plants then

[vivid tapir]

i did it.

@valid compass

[valid compass]

show!

[valid compass]

woah thats really pretty. Is that a bioreactor in the center?

[fringe hedge]

Is anyone else having PDA problems with the voice logs not working like the voices will not play ever though it says it is.?

[vivid tapir]

yes

@valid compass it would make more sense since most items in the room is all organic materials

[valid compass]

yep and convenient

[vivid tapir]

yes yes

i made some improvements, wanna see

[dark night]

Does BZ have just random ambient wailing sounds in the area where you first enter the water?
I've been all over that ice shelf, under it, have a scan room with max range parked there and can't pick up anything that I can identify as making noise.

In SN1 I didn't ever hear anything I couldn't link to a specific fish that was nearby, so curious.

[vivid tapir]

@valid compass More plants and a hub-like vending machine, jukebox and the recycolotron

[valid compass]

now you can jam to music while gardening

[vivid tapir]

Exactly

I wish they can add where u can input your own music

[valid compass]

you can!

[vivid tapir]

Wait what

[valid compass]

its there in pinned messages

[vivid tapir]

You've been telling me this whole time I could have had The Platters blasting while I decorate my house

[barren crown]

I need loads of titanium for my base, so anyone know the best way to get loads of it?

[vivid tapir]

Metal savages

Mostly where the mercury wreckage are

[barren crown]

Ok thanks

[vivid tapir]

Since they give u x4 titanium each

For one savage

[hollow fern]

That or drill arm but I forget where the titanium deposits are

[vivid tapir]

The sector zero I think or mostly where the giant squids are

[hollow fern]

Yeah that sounds about right

[vivid tapir]

Yup yup near the volcanoes thingu

[valid compass]

also scan whatever you can see, already scanned items give 2 titaniums. Theres loads of scannable parts near the lifepod

[hollow fern]

Creamybagal your name is making me hungry

[vivid tapir]

Thanks I've had this name for almost 3 years now

[hollow fern]

They should have made the snow fox go full speed while hovering on water instead of extremely slow

[vivid tapir]

The snow fox was such an underwhelming experience, i thought I was some sci Fi drifter but I tried and it almost broke since I keep hitting the walls

[hollow fern]

Even worse on a low end computer as the game has to fully kill your speed before letting u move again while it loads stuff

[vivid tapir]

And its probably faster if u were just to walk

Stretch them legs

[hollow fern]

Nah prawn was fastest but I got a good computer

[eternal garnet]

snowfox used to sink. So this is an improvement

[dark night]

Question scrolled off, just wanna try asking again before wandering off:

Does BZ have ambient fish noises or are all of the wails and cries I'm hearing coming from actual fish?

[eternal garnet]

fish make actual noises yes. Peepers make a chirpy noise

[storm imp]

oh I didn't know the smaller ones made noise.

[eternal garnet]

I suspect not all of them do

[dark night]

But are there any noises that are just played as ambience that sound like fauna?
I never noted any sourceless sounds in SN1 like I said but have been unable to find the source of some sounds in BZ.

[eternal garnet]

there's ambient too, not sure what's in that. It changes by biome

[dark night]

Mm, okay. I'll assume for now that this is an ambient sound and not a super cerebral clue that there's something I should be looking for in this spot. Thanks!

[hollow fern]

Nah there’s not really sound clues in the subnautica games that I can think of

[dark night]

There are some things I'd call audio clues, like (SN1 spoiler) ||The Mountain Reaper,|| or heat spots being detectable first by sound most of the time, but that's just me using the term much more loosely.

[hollow fern]

That’s just the game having sound

Although if u consider that sound as hints then yes there’s a lot in BZ especially across the bridge

But otherwise it’s just creatures making sound

[dark night]

Is there a use for penglings other than reactor fuel, also? I know I'm terrible but it's not my fault my sea truck aquarium was right under one of their glacial drift platforms and I ended up with 31 penglings and a bladderfish.

(okay so that's literally my fault but question still stands)

You know, I should actually go fix and cross the bridge, now that you mention it. I was doing the other things and sort of forgot about it.

[hollow fern]

Uhh no not really

Keep cooking em for fuel

I mean if u drop them at your base they get really confused and swim in circles atleast that’s how it was in early access

[dark night]

Right on. I'm hatching eggs this time around, too, and picked up one of those amphibious rays. Made the mistake of letting it loose outside of my base...

If you ever want to turn BZ into an Eldritch horror game, do that. Those things poke their heads through your wall and stare at you while you're fabricating and stuff. They follow you all around the seabase and just clip their nose through like, "Sup?"

"u feelin safe in there?"

[broken badge]

Oh the pinnacarid or whatever it’s called?

Probably spelled that wrong lol

[hollow fern]

Dude on my basegame sub save I have a cuddle fish inside of my base somehow

Guys chilling and always scares the crap out of me

[broken badge]

They’re just looking for frens xD

[carmine bobcat]

Rave party

[dark night]

Yep, pinnacarid. You spelled it right I think, though it probably should be 'pinni'. It isn't spelled that way in-game.

[clever crow]

they are worshipping you for fish blessings

[dark night]

Oh, oh, I forgot I wanted to share my best leviathan scare; part of why I came!

A glow whale ate a school of fish that I was in the midst of, pushing me away harmlessly but making me pause and rethink my life choices.

I hadn't even seen the whale yet because I just stepped out of my seabase.

[broken badge]

I love glow whales, you can interact with them

[dark night]

Yes! And I suspect that while riding you are invulnerable. I had some of those sharks in the lily pads region clipping through me and doing no damage during my first whale ride.

[broken badge]

You can run out of oxygen, if they don’t surface

They usually do surface, but sometimes the lilypads can be in their way, depending on where you are

[dark night]

I suppose oxygen dependency is a vulnerability. 🤔

[nocturne sable]

when do you guys think the next sale will be because i plan on buying BZ

[steel stream]

Both Subnautica games were just a few days ago on sale in Steam...so might take a while

[nocturne sable]

oh wait they do summer sales so maybe then

[carmine bobcat]

yes they do

there is spring sales aswell

on steam and xbox

not ps though

[warm forge]

i have no screenshot LIKE BLOODY ALLWAYS but one time i found a ice float with LOTS of pinnacarids

which biome in your opinion is the coolest? for me either the deep purple vents or the (SPOILERS) ||fabricator caverns||

[eternal garnet]

deep twisty bridges. Please don't swear

[warm forge]

it wasnt a swear, it was to cover up spoilers for a biome

its a endgame biome

[eternal garnet]

Like B Always? don't do that

[wet saddle]

a sea monkey just came up to say hi then the naughty buggar stole my seaglide!

[viral knot]

it gave it back then I guess?

[wet saddle]

i took it back off it, does it usually jus give it back naturally?

[viral knot]

idk, last time sea monke stole something from me, I chased it and monke dropped my scanner

[wet saddle]

ah ye thats what i did

i like the fauna a lot more in BZ, its nicer to see animals you can interact with, not jsut food or enemies

[tacit thorn]

monkeys are really annoying. there is a mod to stop them stealing. or interacting with you in any way.

[wet saddle]

nawwwww they cute!

[tacit thorn]

Do you know what this is?

This is a shark breeding tank, for releasing them into wild wherever those annyances are found.

[wet saddle]

i officially don't like sea monkeys'

[eternal garnet]

then find a distress signal. Does that make sense? not really, but it works

[wet saddle]

i gave up lookin for him and made a new scanner

[tacit thorn]

IMO they are almost as annoying after the signal for me.

[dark night]

I haven't had a sea monkey steal anything from me in a long while, does ||visiting a distress signal|| cause them to only offer items thereafter?

[tacit thorn]

yes, and please spoiler that

[dark night]

Kind of not useful to spoiler it given the message right above it though? But okay...

[tacit thorn]

Q: I have way more copper than I can physically store. Would there be a reason not to throw it in trash can? And is there a way to dispose of 500 pieces fairly fast?

[worldly condor]

Copper wire for sea base signs?

[tacit thorn]

I have 2 glass lockers of wire. I don't need another five 😂

Copper on left, silver center, couple gold on the right.

[worldly condor]

Hmmm…

Scanner rooms with range upgrades in every biome?

[tacit thorn]

I thought about putting labels on my deep bore base every 100m vertical, would be ~100 labels, but you can't put signs on the vertical connector. I mean, you can, but it clips inside and is not visible.

[tacit thorn]

I have a 'roaming' scanner room and currently doing another sweep stripmining area for argentite/calaverite/limestone.
Short on titanium, so not keeping the rooms around.

[fierce yoke]

why are the lockers highlighted with a glowing outline?

[tacit thorn]

Holding a buildgun, perhaps.

[fierce yoke]

what, that never happens to me

[tacit thorn]

do you have setting to highlight interactables on? rocks, fishies etc?

[fierce yoke]

oh I realized whats wrong
nvm

[tacit thorn]

I'm also using some QoL mods, maybe one of them does it.

Oh, I'm such a dirty cheater. Guess where I am.

[eternal garnet]

one of the side doors in koppa

[tacit thorn]

yes.
Could finally loot that inaccessible outrops
but
could not get out after

this is soo nice, I can finally get those outrops clipped into walls

[violet mantle]

There is a mod to do so, but not in vanilla.

[wet saddle]

is this telling me to go that way?

no it was part of the pathfinder tool below it

[viral knot]

if it is set up by the game it probably leads to something i guess

[wet saddle]

it was jus a glitch of the pathfinder

[bold monolith]

Not a glitch, it's just to indicate where the tool is.

Like if someone used it before dropping it.

[wet saddle]

ahhhh

[vivid tapir]

@valid compass yk what i wanna do today?

go hunt for some creature eggs

[sleek timber]

Holy hell, and I thought I was a hoarder with my 3 lockers of copper

[valid compass]

Ayyy good luck. I haven't done that myself XD

[vivid tapir]

ill show u when its done !

[vivid tapir]

i need some help

uh it wont let me deconstruct this one specific foundation

[clever crow]

try deconstructing windows and then try foundation

[vivid tapir]

nope

[clever crow]

bruh

[vivid tapir]

like i want to build another large room under but then the little foundation support is in the way

[ancient flower]

oh ive had the same issue in og subnautica, i think it wants you to deconstruct any rooms attatched to it. its dumb

idk if thats actually the solution, i had so much stuff in the rooms they were attatched to so i just didnt bother

[vivid tapir]

so stupid

all i want to is to make another floor my aquarium

[ancient flower]

yeah, idk if its a bug or what but its super annoying

[vivid tapir]

ill just

build the aquarium elsewhere

[clever crow]

try deconstructing the dome and hull inforcment

[vivid tapir]

crying rn

[clever crow]

noo i meant the stuff on the large roommmm
might as well start a new base💀

[vivid tapir]

why would u say that now, i just rebuild the dome

[clever crow]

one time i couldn't deconstruct a water filtration station. it would say 'storage not empty' even tho it's empty. turned out i couldn't deconstruct it because of a locker standing near by

it's so messed up

there's no logic to it

[eternal garnet]

in this case, it's the large room. sorry

[valid compass]

I had a situation with the lifepod being besides my foundation, used my seatruck and rammed the lifepod again and again till it moved away from the foundation and THEN I could deconstruct it xD

Needless to say it took quite some time

[vivid tapir]

welp

might as well build the aquarium somewhere else

[valid compass]

I hate building foundations, I try to avoid them as much as I possibly can lol

Only use em for my underwater gardens

[ancient flower]

you can move the lifepod????? i thought after it landed it was locked in place

[valid compass]

Ye you can, takes quite some time tho

[ancient flower]

and i assume lots of batteries for the repair tool

[valid compass]

Mhm.. xD

Well not a lot but loads of repairs

Maybe it would have been faster if I had a cyclops, unsure

[vivid tapir]

@valid compass update on the aquarium

i got mostly every creature egg

i got the brute sharks, squidsharks, the crushers, glow whale, the ones at the steamy biomes

[valid compass]

daamn

[west mountain]

You got the squidshark but not the others down there???

[valid compass]

please say sea monkey as well

[vivid tapir]

i am i am

im trying but one eggs takes up lots of space

[vivid tapir]

yes yes how could i miss it

[valid compass]

very nice

[west mountain]

I meant the ||yellow/golden trivalve||

[vivid tapir]

im trying to get the blue one rn

egg hunt

[ancient flower]

what about those electric squid things

[vivid tapir]

got them too

@valid compass

[valid compass]

how does aggro system work with aquariums? Do they not attack you if you go inside? And can you release them out in the ocean?

[vivid tapir]

Nope, they work as if you were to raise a lion from born, it will see you as its mentor, not a prey or predator

you're the first thing it sees once it is born

[vivid tapir]

and yes, u can pick them and drop them in the ocean

[valid compass]

and I am guessing they still won't attack you once outside?

[dark night]

Correct. They will attack other fish though. (if predators)

[vivid tapir]

yes yes

[valid compass]

I see I see

[vivid tapir]

im still wondering

how big can they grow

[valid compass]

I am wondering how a|| glow whale|| will turn out

don't remember seeing baby ones

[vivid tapir]

their eggs are the largest one out of all and they are the creature that takes up the most inventory space

[valid compass]

makes sense

[wet saddle]

what are the twisty bridges? they look suspiciously like fossilised Reefback Leviathans?

[eternal garnet]

some type of coral I expect

[wet saddle]

yeah that figures. its the twisty bits themselves that remind me of the reefbacks

[eternal garnet]

although corals, and even fish, are earth things

[wet saddle]

yeye

[dark night]

Fish are, to be fair, one of the most likely complex extraterrestrial organisms humans are likely to find.

[valid compass]

I first thought of kraken remains and got hyped

[vivid tapir]

omg the jellyfishes hatched !

so cuteee

they're so tiny

[wet saddle]

im not going crazy right, table coral is SIGNIFICANTLY less abundant in SBZ?

[valid compass]

ye

I kept hitting what looked like table corals right around the base and was getting so confused why it won't break xD

[wet saddle]

xDDDD they look more purple than in the og game

[eternal garnet]

they come in 3 colors in diff. biomes

[wet saddle]

ah

[valid compass]

yee if I remember correctly, that was also the case in the first subnautica

[wet saddle]

i always just got mine from the red fields or safe shallows

[valid compass]

I made my 2nd base deep down so discovered their existence in a different color there, else it was also safe shallows for me

[wet saddle]

my first time base was Red Fields so it was a no brainer

[valid compass]

yee

[wet saddle]

second playthrough it was also fields i think, near that sheer dropoff to the great ocean

[valid compass]

make it void in the 3rd playthrough

[wet saddle]

looool i only just started no.2 and i ain't even got a moonpool yet

[vivid tapir]

being able to swim with things that can turn you into a mid day snack is amazing

also new aquarium check

[wet saddle]

you terrify me

[valid compass]

you are going to need so many aquariums xD

[eternal garnet]

hatchlings will never attack you, not even if released

[wet saddle]

seatruckcan be subaquatic right?

[eternal garnet]

eh? It doesn't go on land. Very sad on land.

[vivid tapir]

you cant never have enough

[wet saddle]

ohh okay i thought it was land based, the name kinda suggests that

[vivid tapir]

i got 2 massive ones here

[eternal garnet]

the truck name is because it can get really long. More like a train really

[wet saddle]

oh, can i create extra carriages/sections for it then>

[vivid tapir]

its not much i made it entirely under an iceberg so theres no point to the dome but i made it homely

[eternal garnet]

homely really means ugly, but I get you

[vivid tapir]

yea

its not much but i tried

the glow whale in my aquarium looks a lil bigger than normal

[valid compass]

can you do cool tricks with any of the fishies from your tank?

[vivid tapir]

with 2 special oens

that i am going to collect rn

[eternal garnet]

you could farm sea monkeys. And there's the pet fish, not found naturally in the world

[vivid tapir]

look at the size of the glow whale egg

[valid compass]

looks cool as well @_@

[vivid tapir]

im getting a 2nd squidshark and glow whale since i only have 1 of each and i dont want them to be lonely

[valid compass]

a 2nd of everything hehe

then you feed them food and they multiply....oh wait wrong game

[vivid tapir]

im thinking of moving the glow whale to the tank with non predator

since i think they will get along

[eternal garnet]

Not wrong. 2 of anything except pet, will produce young or eggs. If there's space in the tank.

[valid compass]

ahh for some reason I thought they won't cuz aquarium

[eternal garnet]

only the alien containment allows breeding

[low bramble]

I know this is probably a super obvious question, but for the steam version, if you use qmodmanager and install mods on below zero, you won't get banned or anything right?

[lime grove]

you wont get banned

[eternal garnet]

it's allowed

But it's off topic here, and there's no channel for it

[low bramble]

I see. Thanks for clearing it up! 🙂

[vivid tapir]

@valid compass

[valid compass]

another egg or what?

[wet saddle]

booooo they got rid of the thing from the first game where using a depleted battery in a recipie charges it

[vivid tapir]

yes yes, the squid shark

and the yellow trivalve

[next current]

No Eye Jelly?

[vivid tapir]

its in my other aquarium

[vivid tapir]

.

[next current]

Okay good. I can rest easily.

[valid compass]

also is it just me or do batteries drain faster in this game compared to the first one?

[vivid tapir]

yes

it does

[next current]

Some tools drain batteries faster than others.

[valid compass]

my start was just me panicking with my sea glide cuz of that

[vivid tapir]

laser cutters, repair tools

[next current]

Yeah.

[vivid tapir]

wait does the egg hatch while u are not in the game

[next current]

No.

[vivid tapir]

nooooooo

[wet saddle]

still can't centre multipurpose rooms on foundations tho

[next current]

Nope. :3

[valid compass]

you probably have many other aquariums to take care of anyway? xD

they will all hatch by the time you're done

[vivid tapir]

well yea

[vivid tapir]

jellyfish riding the glow whale

[valid compass]

oh my god, its so smol and cute

[fast tangle]

Wait for it before he open his mouth

[valid compass]

can you get in a big one's mouth?

[fast tangle]

Yeah, he eats you. And i hate the animation of it. It was ugly.

[valid compass]

time to google

[fast tangle]

Wait you haven't met one yet?

[valid compass]

idk the animation of it eating you

[wet saddle]

oH NO i almost put my pengling into the bioreactor

[valid compass]

bruh

[valid compass]

I can't find any videos on it ;-;

[vivid tapir]

it is getting lively in here

[fast tangle]

Go to him with low hp, and see it by yourself.

[valid compass]

aye aye

[vivid tapir]

turn out making the large room

was my best decision ever

@valid compass what do u think

[valid compass]

definitely looks way better

[vivid tapir]

yea

if only there were shadow leviathan eggs

i would love to swim with those

[valid compass]

did you get every egg in the aquarium yet?

[vivid tapir]

not yet

still missing some, working there tho

the 2nd glow whale has hatched

[viral knot]

now you made me want to have big aquarium in my base

[ancient flower]

i like the large room but im not a fan of the blue roof

[vivid tapir]

Yea but it takes lots of material

Not that much tbh u can always just grind

[wet saddle]

||can i get one of them things that margueriet has?????||

[vivid tapir]

I don't think so

[wet saddle]

shame

[vivid tapir]

U can feed them stuff and they'll become neutral but not tame

[next current]

If you mean ||her pet doggo||, not without mods.

[wet saddle]

brb gonna go find that mod xD

[next current]

Lol. I believe it's called the Pets mod or something.

[wet saddle]

these aliens are ||the sea emperor again|| right? the architecture is identical

nvm im an idiot

[sand rover]

scanner rooms hate me

[carmine bobcat]

i had to rebuild so many bases completly bc i needed to move them just a bit for just the scanner room to fit
nowadays i start with that room so it doesn't ruin anything again

[viral knot]

i hate them

[viral knot]

sea monkeys...

looks so much better

[wet saddle]

the twisty bridges biome maybe wasn't the brightest idea for a base, seeing as i gotta navigate between the twistys to park my seatruck

[carmine bobcat]

welp, do not worry, you are not the only one who made that mistake xD

[wet saddle]

however i am nothing if not stubborn so i am staying put

[carmine bobcat]

sounds just like me

[viral knot]

man, fridge is one of the best things I'm glad i scanned

i don't need to get salt anymore

just get a fried one put it in the fridge and it just stays there like new

😃

[wet saddle]

what are those things that look like armoured reapers? i hate them

[carmine bobcat]

it's even bigger than the small locker :D

[carmine bobcat]

those?

[viral knot]

funi bois, i like them

[eternal garnet]

Cryptosuchus, latin, means secret crocodile.
One little knife stab and they run away

[wet saddle]

noooo
they're ||red, look like mutated shrimp or smth. they grab your seatruck by the front||

[carmine bobcat]

ahhhh

[eternal garnet]

Chelicerate

[viral knot]

how about the other knife

[carmine bobcat]

you mean those

[wet saddle]

yep

[carmine bobcat]

same, so much i killed all of em

[wet saddle]

oh no i know them boys
just boop em

[viral knot]

i'd love to see this

from a distance though

[carmine bobcat]

just like @eternal garnet said, those are ||Chelicerate||

[carmine bobcat]

dw, they come close on their own :D

[eternal garnet]

make a really big shrimp salad

[viral knot]

can you kill them?

[carmine bobcat]

or just eat em raw

[eternal garnet]

yes. Hard though

[wet saddle]

ahhhh

[viral knot]

and what do you get from killing them?

[carmine bobcat]

there is nothing you can't kill in this game (nearly at least)

[eternal garnet]

Don't bother killing unless you want to put a base in their home turf

[carmine bobcat]

peace since they do not respawn (unless it's the ones that spawn in the ||void||

[viral knot]

aight im gunna go kill that alien ||in my head||😂

[eternal garnet]

you cannot kill the wormies, or the spiky traps

[carmine bobcat]

that is the one exception xD but i feel you so hard

[worthy cave]

i lost a beacon to one of those spike traps

now it just shows dropped beacon

its very annoying

[eternal garnet]

you can turn it off

[worthy cave]

i knnow

[eternal garnet]

you can also get near: their attacks have a cooldown. Like everything else

[viral knot]

i thought i was in the void when i just started playing bz

[carmine bobcat]

spike traps? those tentacle plant thingies that grab you?

[worthy cave]

speaking of chelicerates

[viral knot]

went a little too far from delta

[worthy cave]

yeas

[viral knot]

when i got alterra map it turned out i wasn't even near the void

[worthy cave]

which biome has the most chelicerates

[carmine bobcat]

oh dw, you will realise if you are there since every 30 seconds a new friend spawn, up to 3 in total

[eternal garnet]

is spiky trap plant or animal? Yes.

[viral knot]

three frien chelicerate😇

[broken badge]

I still think we should be able to use prawn drill arm to kill those spiky traps when they pop out

[worthy cave]

which biome has the most chelicerates

besides the void

[eternal garnet]

there's about 3 total I Think

[viral knot]

please put it in spoiler if anybody answers

[carmine bobcat]

the || arctic spires|| have the most freins

[broken badge]

Chelicerates aren’t spoilers

[eternal garnet]

so 4 then

[wet saddle]

pick up WHAT NOW

[viral knot]

i should not click that right?

[eternal garnet]

no

[viral knot]

the big

[carmine bobcat]

it's a map spoiler

[viral knot]

aight

[broken badge]

Shrub nuts iirc give a little bit of health if eaten

[carmine bobcat]

O.O

[viral knot]

biome map?

[carmine bobcat]

whole map of BZ

[viral knot]

thank god, i wouldn't want to see that

[carmine bobcat]

always glad to help ^^

friendly neighbourhood Thanatos

[viral knot]

i'll probably ask for it when i'm more progressed in the game

[carmine bobcat]

don't be shy to DM me too since i can't promise i will see it here but will do my best
others have this map too tho so you will receive help for sure ^^

[worthy cave]

im looking for chelicerates not iice worms 😦

[viral knot]

it still gets me wondering, do you leave the planet and never come back and no ability to play on the save anymore or can you play it after finishing. just want to know if you can play after completing the game or not. No more than that bc i dont wanna spoil myself ending

[carmine bobcat]

they are nearly the same except the color maybe

[eternal garnet]

You can load your last save after.

[viral knot]

aight thanks

good to know that

[eternal garnet]

it will be pre-ending, but that's ok

[carmine bobcat]

just safe before you enter the last cutscene, your game won't safe on it's own so you can safely return
works for both SN and SN BZ

[viral knot]

thank god

now i can spend hours on this save without worrying

[carmine bobcat]

^^

[worthy cave]

could i make a base in the artic spires

the ice worm parts

[carmine bobcat]

yes you could

[eternal garnet]

yes. Wormies do not bother you when inside

[worthy cave]

i made a base near the adult ventgarden in the tree spires

i almost died getting there

chelicerates are mean

[broken badge]

Nice views in tree spires, I made a base there once overlooking one of the vent gardens

[carmine bobcat]

send a screenshot :D

[worthy cave]

i got jumpscared by a chelicerate while gathering spiral plants

one minute im knifing the stuff and when i turn around all i see is a massive shrimp trying to bite me through the ventgarden

[carmine bobcat]

that happens :D

[carmine bobcat]

he one hungry boy

[broken badge]

Can’t find one😔 Have to go to an appt now. But maybe I can look later

[next current]

Pretty!

[safe sun]

Hey

Slicey

no u ❤️

[next current]

no u 2.

[carmine bobcat]

Hey!
You two should kiss!

[safe sun]

No.

[eternal garnet]

But this is my fav biome for looks

[carmine bobcat]

O-oh...
Alright🐋

[next current]

Yeah. The Deep Twisties is a very pretty biome.

It's just so cramped so making a base their really isn't an option.

[safe sun]

Not with that attitude

[next current]

What attitude should I have?

[carmine bobcat]

More optimism

[next current]

I'll think about it.

[carmine bobcat]

Don't think go head on and do it!
Just do it!

[next current]

Fine. Maybe I will.

[eternal garnet]

This will fit just fine

[north lintel]

hey guys im buying below zero

[carmine bobcat]

My condolences

[fresh solstice]

dont

i bought it like 3 months ago and am only just playing it, im having fun but im lost on the story 🤣

[viral knot]

What the fred talkin😭😭

[eternal garnet]

it's just a PDA that's there

[viral knot]

The funi shark biome?

[eternal garnet]

the pretty lights biome

[viral knot]

with the big shark?

I like it’s look

it’s very nice

but scary when comes closer

same with chelicerate

😇

[tacit thorn]

if you already own original game on steam, steam gives you a bundle discount if you buy the "subnautica pack" instead - they basically sell the bundle with % discount for bundled things, but deduct the price of subnautica from it for extra % off on below zero.

[rancid hamlet]

i have discovered the spicy fruit salad and wow is it op

literally so easy to make a bunch

and they give the best food in the game, more water than regular filtered water, and max heat?

like
ok

[eternal garnet]

And do they expire? Nooo

[rancid hamlet]

exactly!!!

i no longer need to store any nutrient blocks

[viral knot]

I need it

Where do i find it?

[rancid hamlet]

Spoiler: ||you can find it in marguerit's greenhouse. if you haven't discovered that, you'll have to find it by progressing the story with marguerit, which you can start by I think going to delta station||

[viral knot]

no storyline in here?

[rancid hamlet]

i don't want to spoil

[viral knot]

is it storyline related

[rancid hamlet]

somewhat?

[viral knot]

or just do you find it by exploring or something

[rancid hamlet]

yes it is

[viral knot]

Then i won’t click it i guess

[rancid hamlet]

ok

[wraith ivy]

i love the deep lilypad islands

looks better than deep twisty and pretty much every biome for me

top 3 are 1: deep lilypad
2: deep twisty
3: crystal caves

[north lintel]

i did

just got done playing below zero for the first time

its fun

[mighty umbra]

Weird glitch

[eternal garnet]

does it always do that?

[dark night]

Holy wow. I played through SN1 without ever using the seaglide map, and never even considered using it as soon as I saw there were separate keys for map and light in BZ.

But then adding mods to the game just now and testing to make sure they are working, I decided to roll around with it to the spots I needed to go, and almost right away noticed a spot near the life pod I'd never noticed before.

So I took it to some of my other spots I'd frequented in the last 25 hours of play and it feels like actual cheating. Far above and beyond any of the mods I installed.

[eternal garnet]

okay.. didn't say what mod though. The map mod is really helpful. Probably too helpful.

[dark night]

It's crazy how I have this urge to turn the map back off and never use it again because "that would be cheating" - when if you were to ask me, I would ADAMANTLY disagree that it was cheating for multiple reasons.

The human brain's funny.

Oh, the mods I'm installing aren't really relevant. Just crafting/storage QoL though if you were curious.

That seaglide sonar though... I found an entire biome that I hadn't yet discovered before deciding it was time for QoL.

Anybody else play either game for a long time without realizing how good the seaglide map truly is?

[rancid hamlet]

I can't tell if the progression for this game is just different from SN1 or if I've done things in a weird order akhdksjdls

I'm about 20.5 hours in....I just built the prawn suit, but I still haven't fully unlocked the propulsion cannon, or bulkhead doors for bases...I also havent found any of those spiral plants needed for synthetic fibers

[wet saddle]

this is one hell of a monstrosity of a base#

the far left room is my aquarium & growbeds
far right is storage & fabrication, with bioreactor underneath
near left is captains quarters, office on the lower floor, bedroom on top

[rancid hamlet]

Dang, that is pretty big

Have you considered a control room? You can change the color of the base

[wet saddle]

i do not believe i have one

and most of the size of it is just that darn seatruck dock

[rancid hamlet]

True, seateuck dock is so lengthy

You should make one if you can, tho I think you need to find a blueprint or something

[steel stream]

You can find control room blueprint in omega lab, outpost zero and somewhere in purple vents.

[wet saddle]

i think thats literally the two altera bases (in the north at least) i haven't found

[steel stream]

Have you scanned the map on delta station? That gives you rough idea of where to look for alterra bases

[sleek timber]

I scanned it and then kinda just ignored it

so I completed the game and it took me another 20 hours playing that same save before I finally stumbled upon omega lab

[unkempt scroll]

Worst lab in the game.

Hard 2 find + there is barely anything.

[dark night]

Similar experience here yeah. Now that I've restarted with some QoL mods installed I'm actually playing it more like it was probably intended - gradually expanding out from my pod and combing the seabed for fragments.

You've seen and used bulkhead doors probably. Locations you've mentioned have them. I also missed the prop cannon and was most of the way through the story before poking around the ||starting area|| some more and finding ||it's actually one of the first tools you're supposed to find, before the cutter even it seems.||

One of the first >100m depth areas that you are "supposed" to go to, I also mostly skipped and as a result didn't find ANY fragments for some very useful vehicle parts and didn't know they existed until messing around in creative!

[rancid hamlet]

I've seen and used them, but not found any scannable

[unkempt scroll]

Sea Monkeys have remains of them in their nests

[dark night]

Exterior doors look just like bulkheads but are hatches. Those won't work. You'll see them in interiors.

[rancid hamlet]

Real, I just did some more diving in an area pretty near my base and found some very useful things

[rancid hamlet]

In that case idk, I'll have to search

The most annoying thing I'm missing is magnetite

It'd be real nice to get that scanner hud upgrade

[unkempt scroll]

Magnetite in BZ is just cringe.

You find kyanite before magnetite in BZ.

Its so rare its ridiculous.

Ive been asking where is magnetite the entire duration on my playthrough.

[dark night]

Hmm yeah. It is very useful and magnetite is inconvenient. You should open up your PDA, go to recipes, and pin the Scanner HUD Chip recipe so that you remember you need magnetite.

Maybe having that reminder up will help you find some.

[unkempt scroll]

Ive just said that always had questioned whereabouts of magnetite. Forgetting that I need magnetite is not an issue. The issue is that it is very rare. Ridiculously rare.

[dark night]

Indeed, and something so mysteriously worded with such emphasis on pin probably means something more than what it seems. Try it.

All I'll say. :)

[unkempt scroll]

OMG. That is a clever one.

Took me some time to realise.

[dark night]

Thanks!

[dire apex]

Oh come on

That is not allowed

[bold monolith]

Magnetite 237.

Let say 60 are unreachable, I don't think you need that many.

[unkempt scroll]

Yes. I. Do.

[dark night]

I need an ||executive desk toy|| in all 178 of my observatory offices, so speak for yourself good fellow.

[unkempt scroll]

And i need 178 executive desk toys in one my office.

[rancid hamlet]

Trying to figure this out lol

[dark night]

(But in seriousness, the magnetite quantity can be low for big builds and some mod setups; I'm not that far into a playthrough and have used several dozen 23 actually, not even 2 dozen for lockers)

[dark night]

Nah don't, the message before it was for you. :) Just do the thing and proceed to continue playing and enjoying, for real.

[rancid hamlet]

Don't tell me; I'll find out on my own

[modest carbon]

Is there more or less hostile mobs in below zero than subnautica?

[dire apex]

i think more

[modest carbon]

Hm

[fresh solstice]

really? ive just started and i think theres less

well not just, last friday

[vivid tapir]

Well hostile leviathans I think but more hostile non leviathans classes like sharks

[fresh solstice]

True but those arent that bad, they just roar loud 😭

[vivid tapir]

There are less hostile leviathans class creatures but are more hostiles one that are not not considered leviathans, for example: Brute shark, squid shark, whatever the hell that thing is near the delta station is

[vivid tapir]

Yea like I be driving around and the loud roar just comes out of no where, and they ain't even a threat, like if you have the defense module for the seatruck, you can kill them in 2 hits

[fresh solstice]

I dont, didnt kno that existed yet

[vivid tapir]

But yea

And the ones that are leviathans are just kinda meh

[fresh solstice]

ah

[vivid tapir]

Like one is literally just a shrimp

But I think bz try not to go the same route as the first one by making the map smaller and making less scary

[fresh solstice]

I liked the scary aspect tbh, even tho i was petrified 🤣

Are they making anymore games/dlcs that have been teased/announced?

[viral knot]

another subnautica

on new game engine UE5

and it’ll have multiplayer from what i heard

[fresh solstice]

Oooo okay

[fresh solstice]

UE5 is very good tbf

[vivid tapir]

opens empty wallet sadly

[formal mango]

How

[vivid tapir]

wdym

[formal mango]

Vent garden

[vivid tapir]

you mean the eye jellyfish?

[formal mango]

Oh 💀

[deep kettle]

Nono. Ventgarden* ❤️

😂

[vivid tapir]

yes yes

[viral knot]

Man where did you find these squidshark eggs?

i’ve been looking for them in the canyon near ||alien signal|| where they are

[vivid tapir]

they are in the flowering spores

at the bottom of the lilypad biome

there should be one squidsquark down there

probably protecting the eggs

[vivid tapir]

the 2nd glow whale has grown half way

[steel stream]

I think this hasn't been confirmed...just rumors.

[next current]

Indeed the only confirmed things is that it'll run on UE5 and it contains water.

[viral knot]

if there is water

there is fish

[next current]

It could be a bottle of water.

[ancient flower]

subnautica 3: its just land

[vivid tapir]

Subnautica 3 : above water

[next current]

Maybe.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[viral knot]

maybe above zero this time so it actually isn't cold this time🗿

but generally this temperature addition is very cool

in bz

[ancient flower]

subnautica 3: above zero meters

[vivid tapir]

subnautica 3 : expanding the area of subnautica story and there is no catchy punchline for this, we are trying to make a new experience out of the subnautica series

[sleek timber]

subnautica 3: literally just another No Man's Sky

[carmine bobcat]

Subnautica 3 : Now with magma?

[sleek timber]

hmm, first game already had magma

[carmine bobcat]

Oh yeah...

[sleek timber]

I wonder if it would work to have a game that's always underwater

like 100% of the time

like, the top layer of the ocean is hyperacidic and/or filled with leviathans, so you have to stay near the bottom to survive, but there's caves and large caverns with pockets of air, as well as other things like oxygen plants

[vivid tapir]

wouldnt that just be playing the floor is lava but its just the ceiling is a hord of leviathan

[next current]

That sounds horrifying! XD

[warm forge]

[cries in no subnautica on pc]

[NOR bz]

i would love to make a world where any biome where a levithan can fit in has levithans

[valid compass]

I remember watching this video on a mod where anything he hits can become a leviathan xD

[warm forge]

also, why does the PDA say squidshark is a leviathan, maybe its a living member of a group that was the ancestor of leviathans (protoleviathans?)

[valid compass]

don't remember PDA saying that :o

[broken badge]

The PDA entry says it’s leviathan but it’s not

[warm forge]

from the wiki (i stalk the wiki lol)

[valid compass]

ahh. Speaking of squidshark, they looked half mechanical to me when I first saw them

[next current]

It's databank entry mentions that it's a Leviathan at the smaller end of the scale. However, the entry is placed under the Carnivores tab and not the Leviathans tab.

[warm forge]

hmmm

also, does the normal chelicerate do more dmg than the void? i just wanna know if its true or not

if so then maybe its signs of age making the teeth weaker i geuss

[next current]

It also doesn't really make the most of sense since both the Ampeel and Crabsquids from the first game are considerably larger than the Squidshark.

[warm forge]

hmm

what about the protoleviathan theory i made (scroll up a bit to see it)

[next current]

Yeah, but from my experience, up to three can spawn and they can overwhelm you or your Seatruck in a matter of seconds.

[warm forge]

o so they must do things in packs (or loose gangs) unlike the normal chelicerate which is more of a solo

[next current]

Yeah sorta.

[carmine bobcat]

bruh a chelicerate tried to attack me while I was gathering spiral plants

[bold monolith]

They do not.

[viral knot]

is there lithium around ||delta station||?

[bold monolith]

Yes. You'll find plenty in Purple Vents, probably more than Thermal Spires.

But you can get them there also.

[vivid tapir]

yes

[viral knot]

okay

also what are the loud loud noises behind ||delta||?

[eternal garnet]

the crocs

[floral lava]

Yo, how's everyone doin

[viral knot]

i thought it was something bigger

[eternal garnet]

loud deep lion noises? they are very noisy

[valid compass]

yep and it do be kinda scary but not after you know what is making that noise xD

[viral knot]

what

crab🤣

dangerous? or can i just scan it without worrying?

[short thicket]

well i think it can hurt u

[dark night]

They do mind being scanned but are not particularly dangerous.

[short thicket]

but scan no problem

[vivid tapir]

yea i have some of those in my aquarium

[viral knot]

money

wait i have even more

trip was worth it

mmm uhhh something in my base broke

now it became aquarium

🥲

okay how do i get the water out after i repaired it

[ancient flower]

i recently got a lifetime's worth of lithium from purple vents

[eternal garnet]

find the last breach, then the pumps start auto

[viral knot]

yeah i got it

not cool aquarium :(

[carmine bobcat]

why is it the least dangerous creatures in bz scare me more than the actual leviathans

like im terrified of rock puncher and eye jelly for some strange reason yet I only find a chelicerate as a nuisance

[dark night]

Because these leviathans only have 2 of the 9 traits known to cause terror in humans.

They're extremely large, and they move in a way that cannot be predicted (even if you understand both marine biology and C#).

[carmine bobcat]

wait a minute does that actually exist? I thought that was just for show before but now im actually kinda interested

[viral knot]

i can finally put a bio reactor in my base :D

big room go brrrrr

i literally ran out of titanium💀

[next current]

Get more Titanium.

[viral knot]

nah, just gonna live without it🗿

where do i find big aquarium?

[next current]

Well umm okay...

[next current]

You can get a scan of it in the ||Mercury II Bow in the Lilypad Islands||

[viral knot]

lilypad islands? above or below water?

weird question ik

[next current]

Below. On the sea floor.

[eternal garnet]

in the south-west end of lilypads, at about 350m

[lunar jay]

Hey guys! Quick question, I have a moonpool but no console, what gives o.o?

Can't customize my Psuit :<

[ancient flower]

the console is a separate thing you have to build in the moonpool

[lunar jay]

Ohhhhhhhh I see! Thanks for telling me!

[dark night]

Nope, though some serious effort has been put in to quantifying terror into 9 generalized factors directly as a result of the game quote in question, which is almost as interesting. Google 'threat stimuli' or 'amygdala trigger' if you want to investigate further.

It's tough though because you'll end up with far fewer than 9 if you go general enough to not count the 30+ known factors as distinct.

[rancid hamlet]

Shout-out to whoever's idea it was to add jukeboxes to this game, especially to the sleeper module

And shout-out to Steve Pardo for the absolute bop that is Rite of the Deep

Makes long seatruck trips much more fun

[carmine bobcat]

they should add the in game songs as well, for example tree spires music. tree spires music is so good

anyways I have a question; can you put trivalves in a seatruck aquarium tank?

[eternal garnet]

they wont hatch, and hatched - Not sure, prob not

they aren't a pet until released. do it

[carmine bobcat]

I really hope they can, when I get a trivalve I wanna bring him with me on all my adventures

..I suppose I still could, but it'd be a lot more fun with him in the tank

[eternal garnet]

uh,, he will follow everywhere, except in your bases

and not in the truck

[carmine bobcat]

thats why I hope he can be put in aquarium, that way I can bring him with me and still watch him swim around without the worry that he gets attacked

[eternal garnet]

he's got leviathan level health. But try not to bump him with the truck

[carmine bobcat]

still, I dont think he'd be able to keep up with a seatruck

[eternal garnet]

like most games, he teleports if necessary...

[carmine bobcat]

is it so bad for a man to want to bring his trivalve with him in his aquarium?

[dark night]

Would it be so bad for someone to put you in a cage and mount that cage in the bed of a pickup truck, and never interact with you except to occasionally stare at you through a transparent tablet while sitting in a chair that they repeatedly construct next to their truck when looking at said tablet, motionless for 20 minutes or longer at a stretch?

🤔

[whole pine]

why is there no hydraulic fluid for me to scan

[eternal garnet]

on the bridge? Check PDA recipes

[carmine bobcat]

where to find empror of the sea?

[eternal garnet]

in the other game. it's not in this one... anymore

[carmine bobcat]

not the zero the org

[eternal garnet]

off topic, but at 1400m depth, bottom of the lava biome. Find the big circular crown hole, go down there

big hole shaped like an upside down bottlecap

Bring keys: ||2 blue||

[whole pine]

yeah it didn’t spawn and i never scanned it before

[eternal garnet]

cheat: unlock hydraulicfluid
This does ruin future achievements in this save

You sure it's not there? at your feet by the bridge console

[whole pine]

yep

[carmine bobcat]

good point actually, that being said, counter point;
I got no counter point, gg

[dark night]

Holy smokes, I didn't realize you could make that point.
I respectfully resign.

[tacit thorn]

There is never enough titanium.
[retruns to stripmining every outcrop in the world]

[carmine bobcat]

running out of titanium is a lot more common in bz

without metal salvage theres no easy as hell way to clog up all your storage with titanium

[next current]

How far are you in the story?

[tacit thorn]

also, sadly, half of the salvage is stuck inaccessibkle under wreck

[viral knot]

at least you can still scan components and get 2x titanium

[next current]

I was mostly referring to ||ore veins like the ones in the Glacial Basin.||

[carmine bobcat]

me?

[next current]

Yeah.

[carmine bobcat]

well I started a new save cuz my old one was going nowhere but im planning on heading to the glacial basin and after that the arctic spires

I also have ||al-an|| ig, doesnt help much in titanium hoarding

[next current]

Again, ore veins of Titanium, Copper, Silver, etc are bountiful.

[carmine bobcat]

true, ig i just miss metal salvage

[tacit thorn]

not enough, mined them all

[next current]

Then go to the Lilypad Islands.

[tacit thorn]

already collected all the loose titanium there

[carmine bobcat]

large titanium deposits then?
