[unkempt scroll]

Alright whatever we are going off topic here anyway.

[vast idol]

I swear someone just pinged me

[modest oar]

I find void chelicerate to be absolutely horrifying

[lean notch]

I once started watching stranger things

And idk the child actors just annoyed me or something

Then i stopped watching it 🙂

[unkempt scroll]

My message got deleted because it had word starting with p. I should have said wetting ur pants instead.

[lean notch]

Cant have the p word

[modest oar]

Prongle

[lean notch]

Very offensive to people who can't

p

[bright sapphire]

does the prawn suit damage if ur beyond its max depth even if it's attached to the seatruck module?

[steel stream]

No (until the moment it's undocked)

[bold monolith]

Kelp Caves, Twisty Bridges.

On the seamonkey nests as well.

[steel stream]

Koppa mine also

[crude wyvern]

y like trowing penglins

throwing

or picking them up

by throwing i mean useing the proposion cannon

[unkempt scroll]

What is wrong with you?

[viral knot]

I dont think so

Though it would be lovely to have these little cute bois walking around

[remote geyser]

<@&85343211593166848>

[unkempt scroll]

AYO what the heck is that message?

[crude wyvern]

wat wats wrong with me i put 90% of penglins i find in the fish tank
my inventory is filled with them in my hardcore world and i have a room dedicated to them
idk i just like captuing them

[crude wyvern]

wats wrong with me

i feel everything is wrong with me

#role-assignment

[unkempt scroll]

I think the name speaks for itself.

[eternal garnet]

usually they don't come there, but it's really close

not sure there is such a message

[unkempt scroll]

In OG Subnautica maybe.

[eternal garnet]

different chelicerate. Also that's "purple vents" biome

this one's red and smaller

[unkempt scroll]

I do not think they are black.

[eternal garnet]

Here's a void dude. Fog turned off

[bright sapphire]

||does alan give u coordinates to the artifacts in a set interval or how?||

[eternal garnet]

Not sure about timing, there are other conditions I think. Anyway you only get a third of all artifacts this way

[bright sapphire]

so the rest is just

free exploring by urself?

[eternal garnet]

yes

[tribal arrow]

are there any Stalker caves in the "forest" area of the Glacial Basin? I'm tryna find some fur for my cold suit

[eternal garnet]

there's an alterra cave north end, by a radio mast. It ony has 1 piece tho. And some other interesting stuff.

(Very interesting stuff)

I'm not sure where the fur caves are

[tribal arrow]

I just found it, I only needed one more piece!

[remote geyser]

i wish there were ice dragons instead of these in the void

would've been much cooler

[bright sapphire]

was there any hints to what happened to all the remaining crew members after the events you uncover about sam in below zero

like did they all get evacuated or something

[steel stream]

Isn't there some mention of hasty evacuation in some of the pda's?

[eternal garnet]

yes, the pda's state that they ||packed up and left, after one base was blown up and 2 people died in another explosion accident||

[viral knot]

||one of these two people was sam? Wasn’t she?||

[eternal garnet]

yes

[bright sapphire]

||how did marge survive kharaa from the original subnautica anyway?||

i didnt find any lore pertaining to that

[next current]

Can you spoiler that? Also it's a plothole.

[bright sapphire]

u guys are rly inconsistent with your spoilering

[eternal garnet]

the theories are, ||eating a thousand golden peepers, being too stubborn to die, eating immune leviathan meat, and some ppl. just have natural immunity||

it isn't mentioned in canon

[pliant jetty]

They fly

[pliant jetty]

You are leveling up a bar I think, by hitting thresholds

[pliant jetty]

It follows|| that reapers (and sea dragon) by being top predators will end up with a lot of peeper enzyme, they are never infected after all. Wheras reefback occasionally are (infant).
Marg top predatored the reaper she got a huge concentration of enzyme, and over an extended period with no vectors for reinfection (probably)|| until complete immunity

Ironically, she probably never even realised she was infected

[crude wyvern]

i wish that stasis rifles were in sub zero

its rlly usfull in normal subnautica

and im like 2000 metres away from my base

idk i should have brang my seatruck

Y so many VENT GARDENS hElP

wait vent gardnens arnt harmful

so im in the spire biome

[eternal garnet]

did you swim inside?

[crude wyvern]

im lost im like underground i think im in crystal cave i se some shadow laiviathans or those chelicerate things

[eternal garnet]

yes, purple crystals is crystal caves. Go west for the exit

and put a beacon at the exit

[crude wyvern]

i think i dont have any beacons on me

[eternal garnet]

having a beacon always is good: if you die, it will drop and mark the spot

[crude wyvern]

ik i used the last one

i should be able to find a vent garden

[languid panther]

Kill the shadow leviathans

Prawn suit grapple and drill

[crude wyvern]

no i left like my gear in my base

and is bulldozing fish/laviathans effective with my sea truck

[hollow oasis]

Sub zero is on a different game. But I'm happy the rifle isn't in the game (unless mods) because the seatruck defense system is powerful enough

[crude wyvern]

stasis rifle is good they keep the fish from moving

[hollow oasis]

Yeah, but with the defense system, you don't need the rifle

Makes the game more interesting

[tacit comet]

I'm glad people can't bully leviathans anymore.

[crude wyvern]

ok and the only thing u need foer exploration is the sea truck the fabraicator module and the prawn module and the prawn
on the prawn u get the grappling hook and drill

u can use torpedos

[tacit comet]

I'm not saying that people can't have their won ways to play, I just think that taking out a really cool (and admitably terrifying) part of the game detracts from the experience. (imo)

[hollow oasis]

You can hit chelis with the truck, but it'll take forever to kill

[crude wyvern]

ok im lost again im in a blue ocean and and i see a chelis
PLS DONT KILL ME

[hollow oasis]

You got the speed boost?

[crude wyvern]

by blue i mean really blue
yes i do

[hollow oasis]

Just press that, you're out of there.

[crude wyvern]

i play on swicth and typing on computer 4 some reason

[hollow oasis]

Unless the cheli is white. Then you re in trouble, need to leave the area😂

[hollow oasis]

That's where I play as well

[crude wyvern]

im new 2 sub 0 ANd play subnautica for like 2 moths

[hollow oasis]

Below

Both games are nice, for their own reasons

[crude wyvern]

ye

that thing is still chasing mw=e'

[hollow oasis]

I need to explore bz more. Like every nook and cranny

[hollow oasis]

Go to your lifepod. Is it white by any chance?

[crude wyvern]

wait WHY IS THER E3

[hollow oasis]

Oh oh

[crude wyvern]

Y IS THERE 3 HeLp

[hollow oasis]

You're in the dead zone

Leave immediately 😂

[crude wyvern]

bruh

i might as well start a new wolrd

[hollow oasis]

😂😂

Just retrack and go to base

[crude wyvern]

im like 3000 metres from base

[hollow oasis]

Oh, ok. Yeah, that could be an issue. Did you save?

[crude wyvern]

idk

[hollow oasis]

Those chelis won't leave you alone, unless you leave the dead zone

[crude wyvern]

D: <

they should add a speed odule

[hot current]

Does anyone have the 3d models from either games for blender?

[crude wyvern]

i think i out ded zone

[hollow oasis]

It gives you a warning when you enter the dead zone

[crude wyvern]

ok i missed that and imin giant lilypad biome

ill prolyl go to tree spires and do something stupid again

[hollow oasis]

Fix your truck, check your batteries

[crude wyvern]

tree spires is west of lilypad boime right

is 43 enoguh battery

[hollow oasis]

Depends where you are, really

[hollow oasis]

Go to base

[crude wyvern]

i have 4 battery on me

[hollow oasis]

Go to surface, and base

[hollow oasis]

Oh, then you should be fine

[crude wyvern]

there should be ion cubes in there i need one

and where is crystal cave entrance again

im kidnapping genglins

i should take a break idk where i am

nvm these eye jelly fish creep me out

[hollow oasis]

I usually go down from the purple vents

[crude wyvern]

I FOUND IT
snow stalkers and now im running

[mellow geode]

Just use your prawn

Most op vehicle in game

[crude wyvern]

and im lost

where is the snow stalkers located

[mellow geode]

On land

[crude wyvern]

ik im near frosted sinew tree where am i

[mellow geode]

No idea, it's been a while since I last played bz

[crude wyvern]

i wait im int he glacial basisn

throwing snow stalkers with the prawn propelsion canon is fun

i found the frozen lavathan

[mellow geode]

Prawn keeps you toasty warm too

[pliant jetty]

I realised ion cubes are limited recently on bz

(someone told me)

I need to speed run the ion cube soft lock, or do you not even need them?

Pretty sure the ||body ingredients|| call for them

So, waste enough and you are done 😆

[steel stream]

Make sure to build recyclotron before you run out of cubes...

[broken badge]

If you keep flares with you, they keep snow stalkers from attacking you

[eternal garnet]

yes. Gotta hold one

[broken badge]

Indeed
Don’t work well in your pockets😂

[little haven]

If you get preston's delight it's fun.

[lime grove]

flares also give cold resistance

[broken badge]

It’s a neat trick how they turn off when you stash them away again tho, so they don’t burn holes in your pockets😅

[little haven]

Tbh I'd like to have a baby snow stalker as a pet after thinking about it.

Gotta love how || Marguerit's || snow stalker uses an || alien tablet || as a chew toy

[thick hollow]

I LOVE ||Al-An|| He is so cool

[next current]

We all do.

[thick hollow]

The story of the sisters

thoughs about my ||Sea Truck ||?

[jovial roost]

Oh nice

[thick hollow]

thx

How i Drive the ||snowfox|| 😭 Is so hard

[next current]

It's like a bumblebee. :3

[short shuttle]

Someone help, how do I fix this!

[eternal garnet]

load game,. or push it in with a prawn

[eternal garnet]

just oversteer a lot. you get used to it

[next current]

While driving, the players view is locked forwards. When stopped, you are able to freely look around. While in flat areas, it's good to use the Snowfox's speed boost. While in rough terrain, it's preferable to go slow. If you have the Jump Module you can hold down the jump key/button to get better hight from it.

[thick hollow]

thx :3
My seamoth in subnautica is the same color xD

[next current]

You can also use the jump module to reduce fall damage if you were to ever fly off a cliff.

[thick hollow]

Why everytime brokes?

is like have damage

[eternal garnet]

never fall damage on the bike

[next current]

Very popular color scheme it seems.

[thick hollow]

what is that green thing

[thick hollow]

Ye

[next current]

Sorry. Collision damage.

[eternal garnet]

a lilypad. grows to the south east

[thick hollow]

i didn't even notice that he have an eye lol

[thick hollow]

lmao

[eternal garnet]

is it an eye, or is it jacksepticeye logo? He noticed while playing it

[thick hollow]

hm...

[short shuttle]

Lilly pad lol

Also what is that dead zone thing?

[thick hollow]

I'm gonna try to mod Below zero to change the map, i already beat it and was so good, but honestly the firl's story sucks a little bit

[short shuttle]

What is the best between subnautica and below zero

Which one is generally better

[eternal garnet]

which? yes. It's all opinion. I love both

[thick hollow]

Both

[eternal garnet]

I'll say that original tends to win this fight

[short shuttle]

Which game has the biggest map?

[eternal garnet]

SN. Meaning stuff are harder to find, and more travel

[short shuttle]

I see

[thick hollow]

also i love this animation, Slap so hard tbh

[short shuttle]

But physically which game has the biggest in game map

[thick hollow]

Ye

[eternal garnet]

really. SN's map is about twice as wide/tall

[thick hollow]

SN, if you try to load a seamoth mostly you can't good travel

but i realily like the dash from prawn suit

[short shuttle]

Oh damn wow so should I regret buying the below zero?

[thick hollow]

Nonono, both are good games

[eternal garnet]

no. it's definitely not all about a big map

SN's map is quite barren in places

lots of travel, like I said

[short shuttle]

That’s fun though

[eternal garnet]

It was seen as a problem, so it was reduced

[thick hollow]

I'm gonna try to make a map in BZ

someone can help me?

To mod and stuff

[eternal garnet]

there's a different discord for this, linked from #subnautica-modding

[thick hollow]

uh, thx

thx

uhduplicated message

sorry

[tribal sapphire]

I got 2 alien base things on my map and both require me to go in that zone with the cryptosuckus and I don't wanna he's scary

[eternal garnet]

they are loud, but easily scared, and die with just 2 truck bumps

[elfin ivy]

do i need to find blueprints to unlock heavy oxygen tank? if yes where can i find it

[eternal garnet]

heavy? do you have the large, 135s one

[next current]

The High Capacity Tank data box is at an I Compartment Tech Site in the Twisty Bridges. 130m.

[elfin ivy]

tgansk

[tribal sapphire]

is the cuddle fish in below zero

or an equivalent

[next current]

There is an equivalent.

There's 6 of them.

[tribal sapphire]

cool

[elfin ivy]

how far is it from spawnj?

[next current]

The Drop Pods spawn is randomized.

[elfin ivy]

the twisty bridges here go down to like 30m

[next current]

You're going to need to go further out.

[elfin ivy]

closer to delta?

[next current]

Yeah but not too close.

[elfin ivy]

bro theres a leviathan camping there

do i get like decent weapons more i progress?

[next current]

There are no Leviathans in the Twisty Bridges.

[viral knot]

no?

how about leviathan-like creature

[bold monolith]

Wrong game.

[viral knot]

Weapons wouldn’t make any sense in this game

Its whole point is to be scary

Not for us to kill leviathans

[fierce garden]

yknow i know how most people hate the seatruck but like
counterpoint
it is cool

[languid panther]

u can do that with prawn suit anyway tho lol

[spark steppe]

how do i get to the ||arctic spires cache||

tried getting there ended up going in a circle

[viral knot]

yeah but why would you

[eternal garnet]

ideal path: from the bridge, go up on the ledge on your right, the path that goes into tunnels. Keep going north. This ends in the last spires area. North again, following any cables down

This path has minimal ice worms also

[spark steppe]

ok

could i take a prawn suit through the path

[eternal garnet]

yes

[spark steppe]

ok, thanks

[eternal garnet]

a hiGHlY prOfFessioNaL map of spires

[spark steppe]

looks great

better than would i would draw atleast

[lime grove]

Best map I ever seen

[eternal garnet]

so my path is the right side of that map

[spark steppe]

ok

[rugged jacinth]

I actually think the SeaTruck is what made Below Zero fun

[rugged jacinth]

I mean it’s a vehicle that can be whatever you want it to be

You could make it a giant storage vehicle if you want, or a vehicle for convenience by giving it a built in aquarium and giving it a built in fabricator, and heck you can literally make it a party bus and put the jukebox inside of it

[spark steppe]

or a quick use of escape

with the||teleportation module||

well i finally finished Sam's story

[rugged jacinth]

Aye good you actually did what Robin came there to do

||You can legit finish the game without even acknowledging Sams disappearance and it’s baffling||

[rugged jacinth]

But yeah the SeaTruck is very innovative

People be hating on the sea truck but ignoring how stupid the mechanics are for the SnowFox hover bike is

[spark steppe]

snowfox for me is useless

[nocturne sable]

why is table coral so annoying to look for

[rugged jacinth]

It honestly is in Below Zero

[rugged jacinth]

Plus the Prawn Suit can actually walk on land and fight back against the ice worm

The snow fox is just faster that’s it

[eternal garnet]

ya... you can't fight the worm. At all.

[tacit comet]

See meatie's response too. The Ice Worm isn't actually a creature in terms of the game's mechanics. Lore-wise, yes, but for game purposes, it's more like a hazard.

[rugged jacinth]

Then how have people been able to scan that damn thing?

Seems like a nightmare

[tacit comet]

But I agree, the snowfox is really annoying to steer, for some reason the sensitivity is much lower once you mount it.

[tacit comet]

You can't scan the on that attacks you, there's a dead one (that is just like terrain for game purposes) that you can scan.

You don't actually have to find the "alive" one to scan it.

[rugged jacinth]

Ooooh. Ok that makes sense

However can we agree that the prawn suit is definitely a better choice to evade the ice worm?

Cause the Snow Fox will just run you into walls and corners half the time

[tacit comet]

Omg, I completely agree with you. and the snow fox isn't even that much faster if you have prawn grapple.

The only thing is that the prawn seems to glitch through the ground a considerable bit when doing so.

[fierce garden]

the only problem i have with the seatruck is you definitely need more than 5 attached things to get the full portable base experience but it only displays 5 of their healths at max
like come on when are we getting the patch where it displays like 10 or something

[tacit comet]

Yeah, that's a bit annoying, and the slowdown for having multiple module seems excessively punishing.

To be honest, I'd take the Cylcops over the Seatruck any day.

[fierce garden]

maybe there should be a seatruck strength module

it doesn't make it's max speed any higher but it just lets it tow more with less of a slowdown

would make sense for it to be slow in early game and as you progress you can do more with it

[rugged jacinth]

Or maybe a new version of the Cyclops cause let’s be real while that thing was a beast it was very bulky and fat

I’d like to have a Cyclops Mark 2 with like a built in fabricator and maybe have it powered via nuclear instead of power cells. Maybe even add a built in aquarium too for convenience

Maybe a built in torpedo launcher too!

[fierce garden]

oh.

well
if you guys aren't content with that maybe there should be a mk2 or mk3?

[tacit comet]

I think having mk 2 & 3 Horsepower Upgrades would be cool, but only if the upgrades provided a significant increase to speed, and it was noticeable.

[tacit comet]

Honestly, I think it's fine, it'd be nice if places like Blood Kelp Trench and Deep Grand Reef had a little larger entrances, but most other places are easily manageable. A build in fabricator isn't really a problem, you can just build one in it (aquarium too). If you want a cyclops nuclear reactor, there's a Nexus mod that should work great.

[limber wagon]

alan 😫

[tacit comet]

Wait, why don't we have an Al-An emoji?

Spoiler?

I demand an official response.

[glossy pebble]

Does anyone have the bug fix log for the what the dock update?

[tacit comet]

Unsure, Steam might have it.

[glossy pebble]

I think that's the only spot I didn't check

[vast idol]

Probably

[unkempt scroll]

Wdym probably?

You cant answer probably on question like that.

[dusty plover]

There is

Seatruck horsepower module

[dusty plover]

"The Seatruck Horsepower Upgrade is a Seatruck upgrade which increases the Seatruck's speed when hauling two or more modules. The upgrade does not stack."

[next current]

Gotta love how it's tooltip is just the same thing as the item name.

[short shuttle]

What is this?

Also don’t mind the beast in the background that will take me

[unkempt scroll]

Shrimp.

[short shuttle]

Nono the ecological zone

[unkempt scroll]

Shrimps live there.

[latent mantle]

That is basically the end of the map

[short shuttle]

Is the map really that small?

[latent mantle]

Yes

Its tons smaller than the original subnautica size

[short shuttle]

I haven’t played the original but is the original better or should I wait for Subnautica 3?

[latent mantle]

Bro if you wait for subnautica 3 you gonna be waiting quite a while

[short shuttle]

Oh mb the next subnautica, subnautica 2

[latent mantle]

Same thing

[short shuttle]

lol

[short shuttle]

Ok the next subnautica game then

[latent mantle]

People call it subnautica 2 or 3

[short shuttle]

I thought people said it would be out later this year?

[latent mantle]

💀

Bro the devs have only said 2 things about it

Water and unreal engine 5

They also said its the next game in the subnautica universe but that doesn't really say much

We aren't gonna get the game in EA for a long time

Well if they even decide to do an EA for it

But if you want to play the subnautica series in chronological order it would be the original then BZ

[short shuttle]

I mean is it any difference except the story and the map

[latent mantle]

Same planet different times of the story taking place and different parts on the planet

[short shuttle]

I see

[latent mantle]

Oh and ig I can say another thing that they are different is BZ is basically just the winter and the original is the tropical weather all nice and warm

[unkempt scroll]

The best thing to describe BZ would be saying that it just like OG Subnautica but worse.

[latent mantle]

And smaller

But more advanced tech ig?

Well more like they just improved their equipment a little

[unkempt scroll]

Actually less tech.

Thx for SeaTruck.

[latent mantle]

Well I mean the ||ion cube utilized tech||

Like the recycolotron

Very handy tbh

[unkempt scroll]

Yeah I suppose I agree that ||ION chest|| and ||recycolyron|| are very useful.

Gotta give BZ at least that.

I will never forgive it for SeaTruck though.

[latent mantle]

I can't even begin to tell how many times I've made the wrong things

The recycolotron got my back tho

[latent mantle]

Just give it the speed and maneuvers of a seamoth and then it's acceptable

[unkempt scroll]

And more storage. Please I’m begging you.

[latent mantle]

But the prawn boost when walking is a nice touch

But other than that yeah BZ lacks some stuff

But it wasn't really even gonna be a game at the very start

Wasn't it originally planned to be an add-on to the original?

But the devs cut that

[next current]

It was originally going to be DLC but it grew into something much larger.

[latent mantle]

Ok so I wasn't that far off

[next current]

No you were not.

[latent mantle]

||You mean Sam not Robin||

Robin is who you play as lol

But the game didn't lie it was pretty obvious from the start if you've played the original first

[unkempt scroll]

Yeah. That was kind of disappointing to say the least.

[latent mantle]

You basically get the understanding of what type of company alterra is in the first game

[unkempt scroll]

The game did not really lie though.

[latent mantle]

So the outcome in BZ is kinda understandable

||Alterra will do anything to shut someone up for good||

||They hid the truth from Robin because Sam found some stuff that alterra didn't like her knowing about||

So they lied about it

Thats what I meant

[unkempt scroll]

They said ||Sam died because of her negligence|| they did not lie about that for sure

[latent mantle]

Well you know what I mean

[unkempt scroll]

Actually when I think about that. Hiding details about ||Sam’s death|| is not the worst possible thing Alterra did. After all ||Sam blew up herself and her colleague|| what do you think it’s better? Telling that your loved one is a ||criminal and indirectly killed themselves and another person or that your loved one died out of negligence||?

[latent mantle]

||Well Alterra had people on the planet working and stuff while the company knew about the frozen you know what basically risking the lives of the people working there and risking them getting the infection||

[unkempt scroll]

Does it matter? ||In BZ you can literally create antidote out of sticks and stones|| you do not even need to do everything you did in the first game lmao.

[latent mantle]

||Just saying though if one of the workers ended up getting it and they went back to alterra they would risk the lives of everyone there||

[unkempt scroll]

||Aliens went extinct because they could not make antidote. Same made it in two weeks||

Makes perfect sence.

[latent mantle]

Well I gotta get going sadly I wanna keep talking

Work is awaiting

[fast tangle]

As we all know, Below Zero has a messed up story, why bother with it?

[latent mantle]

Well farewell

[unkempt scroll]

Yeah I think this is actually the first time I am talking about that here. Either I just don’t come when convo is about that or ppl don’t talk about that as often as they should.

Yeah. I also watched that video.

Subnautica: Below Average had me sold.

This one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGC2HxpjwSY

It got recommended to me quite a few times.

Imagine if Aliens were smart enough to do that.

Poos guys spent entire generations trying to force cure out of ||Sea emperrors|| and all they had to do was just

[fast tangle]

I went in Below Zero, and with story progresses, I really wanted to know ||Alterra's shaddy side ||and also ready to face ||Al-An|| betrayal after we crafted it. but nothing like that happens.

[next current]

The recipe is only there if you happen to lose it.

[unkempt scroll]

It actually would be weird if ||Al-An|| were to betray you. They have no reason for it.

[fast tangle]

but Subnautica has a very believable story, ||they just not able to talk to Sea emperor but they cant so they dont know what to do and what they did wrong. anyway that reveals they were so desperate for a cure.||

[fast tangle]

yeah, I mean, the way he talk to us when we craft the components. feels like it.

[unkempt scroll]

If they really were to do that the ||Al-An|| and Robin storyline would be pretty much ruined.

And as far as I am concerned this is the only somewhat good storyline in BZ.

[fast tangle]

even if not betrayal, i was thinking when i give him ||his consciousness|| he will just say mean thing and run away from us to nowhere to found. and they Robin found herself left alone in ||fabricator Caveran||. I will feel sad if that happens, but my mind was like this is actually what gonna happen.

[unkempt scroll]

Good thing it’s not in the game eh?

I would not say it’s necessary a BAD game but it is just mediocre in some aspects. and that includes storyline

[fast tangle]

hmm, yeah it would ruined her storyline than. but look at the bright side. ||She will join Maide then and live happily after on planet 4546B, lol||

[unkempt scroll]

I think you are being way too harsh on the map and fauna aspect. The fauna is fine ||Except Worms of course they are terribly executed.|| Map is very small yet it still is interesting to explore it because of colourful and unique-looking biomes.

[next current]

The beauty of having opinions.

[fast tangle]

well im with you on this. just only thing I like this game is how beautiful details it is but thats only in ||Twisty Bridges and Lilypads||. Others than that all feels very blank and unfinished. so i say its not a bad game its just feels unfinished and need couple more updates to everything/story included.

It still feels that below zero in its early access, no matter how many times I play. sad its the final version.

[unkempt scroll]

Area with ||Thermal Gardens|| is underrated A and F.

Bro why. It’s beautiful. Might be my fav biome in the entire game.

Life hack: block all mods. Will never hear any complaints ever again 😎

[fast tangle]

I dislike how Vent Garden biome is not like a part of the story.

[unkempt scroll]

Why does everybody hate my fav biome : (

[lime grove]

worm

[unkempt scroll]

I do have to agree unfortunately.

I really hated how it was downright impossible to navigate through them properly.

[fast tangle]

if I recall, whatever you need to beat the story. most of it is in or around only Twisty Bridges and Lilypads. Of course, without counting Alterra basses on land. So a casual player spend one third a time in Twisty then Lily and then on land.

[unkempt scroll]

And the map you are given just does not work.

And worms are horrible and not in the sence that they are scary.

Prawn Suit and even SnowFox both work really weird.

Oh yeah this is also very dumb. I believe I already talked about that recenetly here.

[fast tangle]

yeah, also that game uses same looking assets in most areas or feels like it. To make it harder to navigate and then there is fog

[unkempt scroll]

It’s amazing how main storyline becomes side quest and side quest becomes main storyline.

[next current]

I'm sorry?

[fast tangle]

in og game, i still remember most of the caves, like how its shaped. but here even in twisty bridges and lilypad most of the places/caves are the same looking to confuse us and hard to navigate.

[unkempt scroll]

Yeah when I think about that I had lots of problems with navigation everywhere. Not only on land.

Same. It’s incredible how big Lost River is yet very memorable. Like I still remember the layout too.

[fast tangle]

I liked lilypad caves too, but every area looked same. that the problem. its not rememberable landmarks like in og game caves have.

This is where below zero also missed the mark, even in the places I liked

[eternal garnet]

such a garbage take, clearly untrue

sorry I need to work

[steel stream]

Well, the first game also has lots of optional story ||for example you could finish the game without exploring the degasi bases||, also ||Al-an asks if you have done everything you want to do before going to the phase gate||

[unkempt scroll]

I think he might have meant that some areas in BZ do have landmarks.

[eternal garnet]

certainly. it's true ||crystal caves|| are really plain, but that's only a problem beause you compare it to lost river

[steel stream]

I guess that's why ||Al-an asks if you are ready to leave, or do you still want to do something...||

[fast tangle]

at this point, I say finding degasi storyline and its end is far more memorable ||than your sisters death of bz.||

[unkempt scroll]

You can still literally ||go into phase gate with them without removing the disease from frozen leviathan body and they are completely fine with it. It’s not like curing the disease was their life purpose||

[steel stream]

I know that, but it's basically player's decision to do so...

[unkempt scroll]

Yes but that does not make any sence.

[fast tangle]

so, it has appear that bz has missed the mark in both making memorable landmarks and story. that og did. even side story of og slaps bz full story.

[eternal garnet]

meh. haters

no changing your mind I think. Back to work

[fast tangle]

yeah, but the way the side story is implemented in the game is actually forcing you look for it and many casual player i think did it. in short it is avoidable but the game dont want you to avoid it.

[unkempt scroll]

Robin literally came onto this planet to find out the real reason behind her sisters death. ||and in the end she can literally stop giving a dawn about that and flies away with her new hot alien boyfriend to the other part of universe. And her boyfriend whose life work and purpose was to get rid of the disease just stops giving a dawn about that too||

[steel stream]

That's true, and it could make sense to force that story to be completed.

[unkempt scroll]

That’s just how it is! I know I might have over exaggerated relationships between characters just a little but it just how it is.

[unkempt scroll]

No it would not. This is literally the worst possible ending and with how stupid it is I’m honestly questioning whether it should even have been available to player to do what I have just described.

The minimum base of character consistency we had just breaks when you do that.

[fast tangle]

if you think about it. Robin is like a mindless being from the beginning. Like when she said she gonna look for her sister, then next jumped into the meteor storm (that death right there) without a second thought. Also said I will find my way back. How? Ok now, when we landed I thought she came prepared with a lot of food, water, and even some survival equipment, only to know. it's not. In short, in the intro scene, she is very very ready to die rather than look for her sister.

And in the ending, she feels the same mindless being, saying yeah ||I wanna go with you to your homeworld Al-An, cause I like to know more about aliens. I mean like no matter how into aliens one is one would think multiple times over and over again whether it's a good idea or not and mostly the answer would be no. If you leave with him, how other humans will find you next then. Robin has a better shot in Sector Zero to go back home than in an alien planet far far away in a galaxy out of human reach think of that.||

[next current]

||If she remained on 4546B and was found out, she would likely be arrested for trespassing as she had to sneak past the sentinel.||

[tacit comet]

Yeah, that makes sense, Alterra's probably pretty annoyed.

[fast tangle]

Well, that's true.

[next current]

||Also... I will say, Robin did kinda just leave her stuff there and tampered with an investigation.||

[remote geyser]

tell me your favorite track in the entire below zero ost everyone

mine is ''We exist as data''

[next current]

As its on the OST, Steve Pardo's Rite of the Deep.

Other than that, probably Glacial Basin. It brings back some nostalgia.

[remote geyser]

wow i've never knew about this one

very good one

do you know more such music? @next current

[tacit comet]

It might honestly be Mirage Machine or Cathedral, though I like a lot of the other jukebox songs too.

It's hard to choose...

[next current]

Cathedral is nice.

[remote geyser]

cathedral is my second favorite

[tacit comet]

Much the spook, very the cool.

[next current]

Just looked up the name and A Continuous Thrum is pretty good.

[next current]

Ben Prunty's work is like stars on clear nights sky.

[fierce garden]

how did you miss this

hoOooOOoOoOw

[tacit comet]

Yeah, its a little annoying.

[elder oasis]

for some reason i am postponing starting BZ after having beat the base game.

[unkempt scroll]

Nothing wrong with that.

[elder oasis]

idk why though. like im afraid to start it

[vast idol]

Does angling your seamoth 45 degree downward and both going foward and ascending

Faster

Or seatruck

[digital raft]

I went through all of bz without one so idk

[idle cloud]

Are there any mac users that have experienced an error in your bepinex output log?
Because whenever trying to run qmod and bepinex, the configuartion manager and the mod menu in settings dont appear. Even after restarting the game checking the out put log provides several errors along the line of "Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/SubnauticaZero/BepInEx/patchers/UnityAudioEnabler/QModManager.UnityAudioFixer.dll"

I know this isn't a mod channel but i've already been working with a modder that has no idea how to sort this error out.

[primal hollow]

So ehm i have a problem i exited my prawn suit and somehow ended up here does anyone know how i can get out

[empty prairie]

is there a multiplayer for bz

[primal hollow]

Nervermind gor out

[elfin ivy]

who has the best base, idk how to build a base sso can someone help me find a tutorial or help me maybe?

[safe sun]

What people consider a "good" base is very subjective. For me, it's a base that balances functionality and necessity with style and fun.

All of my bases require these things:

• Built in a nice biome with a great view
• Room for power since I use a nuclear reactor (can be it's own multipurpose or a section in a large room)
• Crafting room, usually has fabricator, mod station, etc.
  Optional: extra storage space
• Moonpool & Sea Truck dock
• Living quarters
• Observatory
• Scanner room

The best advice I can give is to experiment in Creative. Figure out which base layouts appeal to you and go from there.

[elfin ivy]

where should i build it

[safe sun]

That's up to you. Do you want it close to a ton of resources, or do you want somewhere with a really nice view and don't mind a couple extra minutes of travel?

[elfin ivy]

i mean ppl say twisty bridges is a good place

[safe sun]

Definitely! It's a popular spot for a reason.

[elfin ivy]

why is it a popular spot

[safe sun]

Starting biome similar to the Shallows in SN1 with plenty of resources, relatively safe, not to mention it's pretty.

[elfin ivy]

im new so should i build like a little multiporpuse rooom there?

[safe sun]

You can. Or you can also get by without using a multipurpose room and just using the standard corridors. It's up to you.

[elfin ivy]

standart corridors?

[safe sun]

I, T, X corridors. The smaller ones.

[elfin ivy]

why r they good thgo, u cant find storage and stuff in those

[safe sun]

Sure you can. Those base pieces are larger than they appear.

[elfin ivy]

imma just use multiporpuse, ty fior the help

but what part of twisty bridges i cant rly find a decent place

[safe sun]

There's a decent spot to the southeast where the biome opens up a bit, near where you go into the deep twisty bridges area.

[elfin ivy]

this seems good?

[last aspen]

Anyone have any advice on a good seatruck setup? I usually just run storage and fabricator and maybe the docking module if I really feel like dragging the PRAWN suit

Id use the sleeper module if I had any reason to stay in the seatruck for a long time to listen to the jukebox, but I sadly dont

[safe sun]

Those are the only three I use as well.

[last aspen]

I'll never forget my first playthrough when the full release came out, cant believe I got conned into not only using the sleeper module but also the snowfox lol

Ive never built another fox after that first one, PRAWN on land vs. the Ice worm is just such an utterly broken mechanic, and I dont even need the cold suit

[safe sun]

Snowfox is a really cool concept though

[last aspen]

That honestly seems like a common theme to me

I love the Snowfox and Seatruck's designs so much, but using them as the game intended makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes

[safe sun]

The mod to tweak the inventory space in the storage module makes the Seatruck 1000x better imo. I wonder if it's still up-to-date?

I'm genuinely surprised they have the vanilla inventory so small in that module.

[last aspen]

thats another reason i felt like i got conned by the snofox lol, thing took up an entire locker

[safe sun]

I mean that makes sense tbh lol. Would be cool if it took up less space like it's properly packed up though.

[last aspen]

Fair, the laws of storage in subnautica never made total sense

Somehow a seaglide takes more space than a powercell thats nearly twice the size of it, but we just dont question it

[safe sun]

Right lol

[last aspen]

I do like that they made the seaglide smaller in BZ

even if they didnt change it in SN....

I guess robin just makes a smaller seaglide ig

I truly wish the Seatruck was a faster machine tho, I love its wacky little design with it's oversized windshield and dual thrusters

I like that they gave it a unique dock, but its also the only dock in the whole series i cant access vehicle upgrades from :(

[safe sun]

Yep. Still love the dock though. Also wish the speed penalty wasn't so brutal when adding modules.

[last aspen]

I get to move at the speed of a ahead slow cyclops with all the functionality of a seamoth, I compartment, and a prawn suit stapled together, why dont you love it? /j

atleast the afterburner and perimeter defense system upgrade exist, which makes just about any threat an utter joke

[carmine bobcat]

I just found smth glittering in the Snow and idk what it is

[eternal garnet]

some buried ice maybe. Not important

[carmine bobcat]

It has this glitter effect and is on a weird place

Looks like a diamond

There are a few around

[elfin ivy]

how can i get diamonds

[eternal garnet]

easiest early game is deep twisty bridges, below 300m. You can swim, there are o2 plants. Watch for them

You do need the rebreather though. most likely

[elfin ivy]

there r diamonds in deep twisty bridges below 300m?

[eternal garnet]

yes. the deep hole in the canyon

rebreather is ||nearby at 170m by a little crane||

reveal for location

[last aspen]

oh, theres ore deposits in the ice that glitter when you approach

[elfin ivy]

yeah i got it

will this work for the adventure?

[carmine bobcat]

What are they for? Are they really that small?

[carmine bobcat]

With a seatruck yes

[eternal garnet]

yes, but I can't tell which tank this is. But yes

[elfin ivy]

high cap

[eternal garnet]

take the truck to 148m if you have it

good

[elfin ivy]

i need the diamonds to upgerade the seatruck tho

[carmine bobcat]

Just take it as deep as ypu can get

[eternal garnet]

yes. everyone goes thru this

[last aspen]

not usually, this one seems to be half stuck in the ground lol

[elfin ivy]

im at pilot last known position, tf do i do noiw

[eternal garnet]

so, you ideally want the 300m upgrade. directions: ||Below the beacon, there's a trench with glowing wall plants. Follow those, and o2 plants and light sticks North-West, down to 360m.||

[elfin ivy]

also theres like a battle ship there right

[eternal garnet]

nearby-ish, not related

[elfin ivy]

where can i find it tho

[marble cradle]

From what I remember near the docks

[eternal garnet]

I think, directly west from pilot beacon. On top of the ground

150m distance, depth 80

[elfin ivy]

200 depth

[eternal garnet]

no I meant the wreck

it's big tho

[carmine bobcat]

Can someone please explain how to play this game

I just started, went to the base, grabbed a beacon and went to the radio tower

But I don’t have enough oxygen to continue investigating

What do I do

@safe sun

[safe sun]

Have you looked through your fabricator menu and PDA blueprints tab yet? You should.

[carmine bobcat]

Idk what any of that means tho 😭

[eternal garnet]

Find the high cap tank at 120m exactly, by a small building, in twisty bridges canyon. South. North = the small moon and the volcano

[carmine bobcat]

Like I looked through it but idk what I need

[eternal garnet]

ah yes. There are some blueprints that help right away

[carmine bobcat]

I hate that this game has no@map

[eternal garnet]

and in general, exploration drives this game. Save often, try to keep a beacon on you always

[carmine bobcat]

Im hungry

[carmine bobcat]

What does the beacon do

[eternal garnet]

there are maps, online or even a mod (which then shows were you are on it)

[carmine bobcat]

Im on ps5

[eternal garnet]

drop the beacon to mark spots. Also if you die, it drops and you can go back and pick stuff up

the map site. It does spoil quite a lot though. https://mapgenie.io/subnautica-below-zero/maps/world

[carmine bobcat]

Is the game scary

[eternal garnet]

sometimes.
On the map, you are north central, in twisty bridges

[carmine bobcat]

Ok

WHERES the small canyon

Building not canyon sorry

@eternal garnet

[eternal garnet]

did you decide to use the map?

so I am not spoiling further

[carmine bobcat]

I can’t find twisty bridges

[eternal garnet]

The high cap o2 tank location. 120m depth exactly

Twisty bridges is the name of the starting location. especially the south part is full of these coral bridges

[carmine bobcat]

Idek where I am

[eternal garnet]

drop pod is around here

[carmine bobcat]

Ohh ok tysm

[eternal garnet]

make the compass, it helps not just with discord

[hasty rune]

no way

i just read a pda and realized something i had missed before

||Marg indirectly killed Sam and paravan||

[vast idol]

Took you long enough

[hasty rune]

bro shut up i didn't read thoroughly

wait so ||she says she will take care of it, did she set it off because she was afraid of alterra or did paravan accidentally set it off after Marg set it up?||

[eternal garnet]

my feeling is that ||Parvan scared Sam, she fell with the bomb, boom||

[hasty rune]

||sam warned paravan not to get close twice||

||so Marg made the bomb, sam took it and it went off killing them both||

||did the bomb cause a landslide or did the explosion just kill them because you can hear them scream before they die||

[eternal garnet]

it made some rubble in the cave entrance. nothing big

you see a buried fork lift

a PDA with a recording, there

I think you have it

[delicate vine]

is the game worth buying?

[eternal garnet]

yes!

[pastel sleet]

yes recommend to do the first game first and then subnautica bz

[delicate vine]

i already played the first game

[hasty rune]

enough to bury a fork lift, could've killed them both

[eternal garnet]

||it did kill them both.||

[hasty rune]

now i need opinions

[hasty rune]

so it wasn't the explosion but the landslide instead?

[eternal garnet]

wasn't much of an ice slide, a small one

[hasty rune]

ok so they were blown up then

and that's why alterra blamed it on neglegence

or however u type it

[eternal garnet]

yes, they basically ||didn't lie ||

[hasty rune]

i forgot to mention that the peepers slowed it down for her as well

[eternal garnet]

more or less right... ||Marge was present at the outbreak, it killed her employer. I like the idea of eating reaper flesh (top predator, concentrated enzymes) saving her||

[hasty rune]

oh and the fact that peepers are used for that means they were on the planet more than 1k years ago, together with many, now extinct leviathans

i mean Garg was probably already dead back then

but some others weren't

also how do precursor buildings fit in the crater so perfectly if it terraformed over he years

[hasty rune]

like it's pretty obvious idk why are people making such a big deal out of it

and she was what I'm saying is the virus still wasn't as spread out

because the original outbreak happened in the lost river

[hasty rune]

let alone in sector zero

and i read that Paul was killed by a crabsquid and Bart died from kharaa

[hasty rune]

because he swam towards some light after the reaper destroyed their base, which turned out to be the crabsquid bioluminescent body

[fast tangle]

Hmm

[hasty rune]

altho mercury II crew did get infected by kharaa in sector zero

they just killed themselves like idiots before it spread

[eternal garnet]

IDK if they got infected. I don't remember reading that. Fun fact though, they were shot at twice by enforcement

[hasty rune]

i meantioned killing themselves like idiots

they were shot once, the degasi immediately figured out they were shot and they were a 3 man crew, there were like 30 people on the mercury and they all agreed to launch again even tho they were misteriously hot by something before a

and that killed them

[fast tangle]

Stupid them

[eternal garnet]

well, what were they supposed to do? stay here forever? Build stuff and talk to emperor aliens?

that would be nuts

[hasty rune]

there's a pda from the captain where she says she left crew members that were infected by some virus in a cave with 2 weeks worth of food and water and promised to come back for them

[eternal garnet]

ok

[hasty rune]

it was already unlikely for her to come back, imagine the horrible feeling of hopelessness they felt when they saw the ship get shot down to pieces after it launched

[hasty rune]

lmao ur right

why didn't she deploy flares or the hot nuclear reactor water again?

[fast tangle]

Well, I never follow mercury II story. So this is how it goes kinda sad.

[hasty rune]

yeah it's tragic, especially the last pda

[fast tangle]

Just asking what is Degasi and Mercury relation in the story.

[eternal garnet]

kinda separate. Degasi maybe 10 years before Subnautica, Mercury much earlier

[hasty rune]

mercury 2 was the first ship to crash, degasi the second, aurora the third, i don't know exactly what mercury 2 was before it crashed but i guess it was just there to spice up the story a little

but it's main purpose i think is to show that Alan was there, asking for help, much before even the degasi crashed, let alone robin came

[fast tangle]

Mercury II story got messed up I guess. When I first found the ship and discover that it too crashed. I thought Below zero tring to replicate same Degasi type story with it. And i was like why do it.

[hasty rune]

i think this is why they made it

degasi was there bcz of the bases and Marg

and also to spice up the story

[fast tangle]

However, when I found out it too got crashed. I started looking for another enforcement in sector zero. I thought one is also here, but stupid me it's not.

[hasty rune]

i mean the precursors were there so it would make sense if there was

but i guess that the crater one covers the whole planet

makes me wonder if they have enforcements on every one of the planets they were on

[fast tangle]

From my side. I say it makes sense. They wanna cover the planet as whole, so one is in crater and one is in sector zero both side of the planet now covered.

[hasty rune]

yeah like what if some ship just passes next to the other side

maybe Subnautica 3 will reveal

[fast tangle]

Possible, how advance they are but still it feels far fetched.

Sad bz didn't bring another enforcement. Lost an opportunity here I guess.

[hasty rune]

yeah would be cool

the potential of Subnautica games always scares me, especially the void

[fast tangle]

Or even if it cover the whole planet. One should atleast have a backup one, considering how important it was to not let lose the bacterium out of the planet.

[hasty rune]

yeah i agree

[eternal garnet]

shooting at arriving ships seems a little antisocial tho

[fast tangle]

Whatever. There is no place for being wrong or right. They didn't care for whats right they just wanna keep bacterium contain on the planet. And i think I understand them.

[hasty rune]

below zero takes place 3200 years after the second mercury 2 crash... damn...

[hasty rune]

lmao

[hasty rune]

oh no that was fake info

it's between 30 and 100 years old

[eternal garnet]

not verified, but it looks 30 to 100

[nocturne sable]

holy hell

[hasty rune]

i never understood how people get in these situations but it seems fun

[main junco]

lol

[nocturne sable]

i was just casually looking for seatruck modules

[last aspen]

theres docking module pieces there

[eternal garnet]

yes, and sleeper pieces

[nocturne sable]

i kept finding sleeper pieces and not docking or fabricator

[eternal garnet]

fab isn't there. well maybe one piece. Look in ||deep twisty bridges||

[hasty rune]

ah i remember the modules now yes

i personally never ran into the purple vents cheli until i went to the deep purple vents

but I've heard if a million times and shat my pants almost every time i passed through purple vents

and i hate the part when you have to scan al-an's body part (or some artifact, idk) that's in the small volcanic Crater

bcz there's a cheli right above it and you it's 100% certain that you're gonna see it and 99% certain that it will attack you

but chelis will never make me feel the fear i feel around the aurora, especially the back, nothing will, it's a special kind of fear

[eternal garnet]

it might be the sound. the reaper roar is just perfect

[hasty rune]

the dunes and mountains don't have nearly the same vibe as the crash site does but reapers in general literally haunted my dreams for years,

people say grow balls but i will never stop being afraid, i might go to the back of the aurora but i never will be able to make my heart not beat at least 120bpm when there

[hasty rune]

reapers in general are perfectly sculpted to absolutely destroy you mentally, it's easily and BY FAR the scariest creature i have ever seen

not just in appearance, in how they work, the scream, the attacks, the ai, the locations, the amount of them

hearing that thing in the distance at night and then seeing those devil's mandibles........

[eternal garnet]

but later when you enter commands "nodamage" and "spawn reaper 90" respect drops a bit

[hasty rune]

i usually greet ghosts and dragons when i pass by them but reapers are LITERALLY my worst nightmare

[hasty rune]

lmfao, yeah but no matter how many times i spawn them in or even kill them in normal pts i will never stop being scared

my heart is beating literally while I'm slashing a frozen reaper

[eternal garnet]

90 might murder your game. Except with some RTX

[hasty rune]

and then he yells and it just starts beating even faster

[hasty rune]

I will try spawning 90 in tomorrow

[spiral hatch]

i have fallen into an icey cave while in the ice land place, am i safe or should i be screaming in terror rn

[eternal garnet]

as long as you aren't under the map, there's a way out

[hasty rune]

when i played nitrox with a friend, he'd always rush into a reaper's territory, acting like he's not afraid and then when the reaper spawns he almost starts crying

[hasty rune]

ur safe until you cross the bridge

[viral knot]

subnautica moment

[eternal garnet]

tip: hold a flare to scare the doggies

[hasty rune]

then you're never safe

[spiral hatch]

DOGS?

[eternal garnet]

snow stalkers

[viral knot]

Yeah, they’re kinda friendly

[hasty rune]

especially nitrox because reapers take ages to spawn and then they just spawn literally on you out of nowhere and immediately roar

[hasty rune]

i never knew that

[spiral hatch]

interesting

[viral knot]

nothing gives me more chills than shadow leviathan roar

[eternal garnet]

perfection in terror sound
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz851d-OzjE

[viral knot]

if you hold flare ofc

[hasty rune]

also imo ||the ice worm is much more epic than scary and the most fun part of the game||

it literally feels like a boss fight

[viral knot]

ice worm is majestic

[viral knot]

You can’t really fight it

It is an event, not even an object

[hasty rune]

bro i heard it roar in a certain way in one yt vid and you know that feeling like your whole body just kinda uncomfortably freezes

[hasty rune]

and that's what makes it perfect imo

[hasty rune]

very well described

[spiral hatch]

i dont remember whether i crossed the bridge or not but i think im in danger

[hasty rune]

you'd remember

you have to repair it for which you need a very annoying item to grind for

[viral knot]

Exactly

When it spots you the roar is horrifying

[hasty rune]

but idk for me the shadows and ghosts are kinda goofy if not even cute (especially ghosts), something about them being in small, illuminated caves takes all the terror away, especially as ghosts can get stuck in skeletons and shadows bump into walls all the time

[hasty rune]

yeah the attack roar is just straight up freeze

[hasty rune]

lemme just clear this up, the ghosts in the void are NOT cute

[viral knot]

shadows are goofy, it once came from the rock and attacked me💀

[hasty rune]

it's the scariest when you hear a roar in the open ocean

you don't wanna turn around then you so and it's right in your face

plus every single creature in both games has the same attack pattern which is pretty simple so that really takes the terror away

[spiral hatch]

no but i did already

[hasty rune]

the only two that don't are the dragon and ofc the reaper

[viral knot]

dragon is kinda cute ngl

[hasty rune]

the reaper is completely unpredictable and i still don't understand when and how it attacks, it almost seems like it follows no rules at all, couple that open ocean AND the murkiness of the aurora plus the roar plus the mandibles plus the only fact that i know about it's ai is that it has an attck where it circles you for some time and then dashes in from behind without making a single sound

[viral knot]

but it is god damn big

that was fast

bro got muted🗿

[spiral hatch]

how murder big dog thing

[eternal garnet]

don't. hold a flare instead

[spiral hatch]

how do i get the fur then

[viral knot]

||prawn suit + drilling arm||

[viral knot]

look out for caves with babies inside

you should find some fur there

[eternal garnet]

or, spy pengling on a live one

killing them gives NO fur.

[spiral hatch]

okay ty

[empty prairie]

is there multiplayer for bz

[viral knot]

Not build-in

And I don’t think there are any mods for it

[empty prairie]

is there like a mod for it cuz nitrox dosent have it

oh'

[viral knot]

I dont think so

[eternal garnet]

there are two projects. None in a very playable state

[viral knot]

Is nitrox team working on bz multiplayer?

[empty prairie]

nah theyre not

[eternal garnet]

I included them, because I heard it's started. Don't know first hand

it may well be false

[empty prairie]

in the new users info in their discord it says
We are not currently working on a multiplayer mod for BZ, Our goal is to get this stable before setting our sights elsewhere.

so yeah

[eternal garnet]

Currently not much happening with the other project

[little haven]

I'd be even surprised if bz mp was a thing considering what's different compared to og su

[torn ether]

titan holefish my beloved

i just got in to subnautica below zero

so no spoilers please

its nice how water got a buff

[worthy cave]

i wonder if theres art of the titan holefish

i wouldnt be suprised if there was tbh

[torn ether]

[steel stream]

A glow whale

[torn ether]

cool

[steel stream]

One of the few creatures you can interact with...(you can pet it's head and ride on it's back)

[torn ether]

neato

got any clue where i can find a silly little processing unit

and do i need a laser cutter for it?

@steel stream

[elfin ivy]

i entered subnautica below zero and my world restarted.

said it was sdamaged

[steel stream]

Parallel processing unit? Mercury 2 wrecks. You can get 3 scans without laser cutter, but then you need to explore all three wrecks. With laser cutter you can skip at least one, maybe even two of the wrecks

[torn ether]

coordinates?

[steel stream]

Mercury 2 wreck locations: ||Bow section is in lilypads biome, little south from 'pilot's last known location', stern section on the border of lilypads and purple vents (usually found when going to 'pilot's last known location) and detached thruster section in purple vents.||

[torn ether]

im just gonna make a laser cutter...

[elfin ivy]

why did my game get corupteddddddddddddd

[wise vigil]

Dang I'm sorry to hear that bro
Good luck with the next one and you might want to make backups too

[elfin ivy]

tbh what motivation would i have to start a new save

i was starting to get good

no way i can get it back right

[wise vigil]

I don't think so unless you made backups

Dang I'm sorry bro

Maybe you could take a break and come back to it later?

[elfin ivy]

maybe

i literally just bought it

[vast idol]

who?

[vast idol]

I just replayed subnautica bz for the first time in half a year

I died in the first 50 minute from a crash fish

[tacit comet]

oof

[earnest flare]

is this possible to play multiplayer in the below zero?

[unique harness]

Possibly yes

[cerulean herald]

whats that

[earnest flare]

how\

[elfin ivy]

where can i find calaverite outcrop?

[clever crow]

a fren

[cold nebula]

I have made a green house in my base

Above the water

[tacit comet]

Arctic Ray

[cerulean herald]

what is it

[tacit comet]

Harmless, no practical applications.

[cerulean herald]

alr ty

[tacit comet]

Kelp Caves. Twisty Bridges (deeper down)

[karmic tapir]

Where is spotted dockleaf? Can't find any on the floating lily pad islands

[eternal garnet]

on the ground below, and in the wrecks

[karmic tapir]

Will try, thank you

[eternal garnet]

I don't know if you can get any seeds

[karmic tapir]

Where on the wreck exactly?

[karmic tapir]

I think you can, but if I find out I'll tell you

[eternal garnet]

inside.

oh. different plant. Not sure where this one is

[karmic tapir]

Ah

[eternal garnet]

wiki says on the ground in lilypads. maybe you saw

do ask

you gotta explore. This drives the game. And save often, drop beacons. The few green beacons you get, explore the area

[pliant jetty]

Ooor, build scanner rooms

And have a great 3D memory

Either go into bases, or go deeper

Tbh, the green becons mostly dragged me to the plot while I was distracted

Like, I'm going to build a fish farm, now I'm going to build a monolith, now I'm going to cage a leviathan, I'm going to run over penguins in a sea truck.

Oh, the plot, right.

[delicate vine]

table coral

[pliant jetty]

It respawn as far as I can tell

[delicate vine]

where is it though

[pliant jetty]

Oh, bridges for one

It's kinda ever-present though

Ah, go deeper

You might have already gotten a vauge hint if you read the dialogue history

[fathom marsh]

I just stamped upon a thought - is it just me, or Avatar the way of water takes A LOT of inspiration from subnautica games?
underwater bioluminescency, rays, fish, reefbacks, sounds, that whole thing about neahbour planet covering sunstar...

[cerulean herald]

can someone tell me how to get better stuff in below zero

i got it 2 days ago lol

uh

i got a seaglide, 02 tank, fins, a knife and mineral detector

and a bunch of resources and stuff

oh and a scanner

alr

@carmine bobcat this everything i have

sure

wait

cant

[shell wedge]

Does anyone here know how can I add pictures to bug reports?

[cerulean herald]

this thing won't leave me alone

[eternal garnet]

possibly loch ness monster

[cerulean herald]

idk how im gon get back

this thing camping the water near island

[carmine bobcat]

you got a ||Sea Truck|| or ||Prawn Suit||

use one of em' if you do

[tacit comet]

Or both, why not?

[carmine bobcat]

fair enough

also i forgot they could go together

[tacit comet]

"Take your prawn suit along for the ride"

[last aspen]

working on a base in a rather pretty place

[tacit comet]

Fancy, I like it! Are the views good?

It might look cool to span over to the neighboring rock too.

[carmine bobcat]

I like it. However, i would need to see the inside of the place to give a full review.

[last aspen]

it is! I built the large room so it specifically bridges the gap

[last aspen]

theres not much to see so far, its just a bio reactor and a few chargers. this save is really new

[carmine bobcat]

If you're on right now i could watch you and help you out (via screen share). Also, alright.

[last aspen]

oh ive played this game a lot

[carmine bobcat]

Fair enough. I would say that the first game puts out more of a fear factor.

[last aspen]

Oh i know that feeling, though ive also played this game since early access lol

[carmine bobcat]

I'd say i prefered the British VA for Robin.

Arctic Peepers kinda look like squids.

Not that it has anything to do with anything.

[last aspen]

p good

[carmine bobcat]

Nice.

[last aspen]

I just thought about this, but if the ||Mercury II|| is 20-100 years old, then why does it have wrecked PRAWN Suit MK IIIs in its cargo bay? Just how old is the PRAWN design?

[eternal garnet]

billions of days

desktop? mark some words, click eye. Or, put || before and again after

[carmine bobcat]

Marker i think. Not sure.

[eternal garnet]

deepest spot in the map (not void). More clue ||in one end of crystal caves,|| more exactly ||east end||

[last aspen]

||Go to the depths until you find red crystals||

today i learned that chelicerates have been given the ability to no-clip, as one tried to eat me through a ravine wall

[carmine bobcat]

Eh reapers can do it. So i guess every leviathan can slip into a pocket dimension at will, Save for the Reefback.

[next current]

It learned that from the Sea Dragon.

[tacit comet]

Lol

[carmine bobcat]

reapers do the same in fact ghosts do the same (go figure)

[bright pendant]

when did the seatruck dock get added?

thats cool.

[eternal garnet]

Jan 10

[cerulean herald]

all i got is a seaglide 💀

[nocturne sable]

hypothetically, which boxer do you think could beat the rock puncher

[next current]

None.

[stray arrow]

Someone needs to make a mod that brings back the old storyline. I'm thinking maybe it could be called "Goodall".

[stray arrow]

Yeah
I'm specifically imagining a mod that finishes off that ending and adds it to the game.

also do you like my name suggestion?

[vast idol]

Foward Research and Sampling Station (FRSS)

[elfin ivy]

how many ships r there nexto pilot last location?

[steel stream]

One ship in three pieces

[elfin ivy]

oh ty

i want to find the one with prawn suit, also a laser cutter

[steel stream]

Pda will inform you the first time you get close to each section, but if you don't place a beacon, finding them again is not that easy as the message is only played once

[steel stream]

South(ish) from the pilot's last known position

[elfin ivy]

found one, no message tho

why wouldi need beacons tho? is it an important place

[steel stream]

Well, sometimes player can find those wrecks before he has proper equipment and/or storage space to fully explore and need to get back later.

[elfin ivy]

i got a seatruck with storage but no laser cutter, im doing the pilot location storyline rn and i want to get laser cutter and prawn suit meanwhile

[steel stream]

But basically if you explore the whole wreck section, usually no need to get back

[elfin ivy]

approximate distance from the quest is 200m right

[steel stream]

I don't remember if there are laser cutter fragments in those wrecks, but having one would help exploring them

[elfin ivy]

found 2/3 in one of them

[steel stream]

Ok, then there are fragments

[elfin ivy]

found another one

u sure there are 3 wrecks? @steel stream

[steel stream]

Yes, but one of them is quite small, in purple vents

[elfin ivy]

im pretty sure i looted all the seamonkey nests in lilypads but i got 2/3 ultera high oxygen tank, someone help

[earnest flare]

how to play below zero multiplayer?

[cold nebula]

It's a mod

[earnest flare]

name?

[cold nebula]

But it would be pretty cool for multi-player like imagine A friend is in the back of a sea truck before you de attach it

[cold nebula]

I forgot just search it In youtube

[civic gust]

I'm hoping subnautica 3 will be multiplayer 🙏

[wise vigil]

There will be no subnautica 3 😢

[civic gust]

☹️

[wise vigil]

Jk jk

[civic gust]

😐 ah

In fact, it would not make sense to leave the story like this, both in the present and in the past 😉

[wise vigil]

Yeah they will probably make a third one

[regal zinc]

It is a possibility

If its a dlc i would pay

Take my money

For multiplayer

[civic gust]

yeah

Although I don't know if it would ruin the experience since it's about being ALONE, but I hope they release an individual mode and a multiplayer mode

[steel stream]

Then you didn't go through all monkey nests...

[karmic tapir]

You can only teleport to the module on the sea truck, right? Can't set other points to teleport to?

[elfin ivy]

i went thru lole 5

in lili pad biome thats where it is

[steel stream]

There are quite many monkey nests in the caves in lilypads biome...I can think of at least 5 blueprints that are found there, meaning at least 15 nests

[violet flume]

I have a question if ||root pustules|| can be scanned because no matter what I did I couldn't scan them. I believe I was where the ||alien water analysis station|| is.

[west mountain]

Did you check if you already have the entry in the PDA? Because you can only scan once and probabely you scanned them by accident together with the kelp roots itself.

[violet flume]

Yes, I have. It's not there.

I have the kelproot in my PDA, but not the pustules.

[eternal garnet]

I checked. The root is scannable, the pustule is not. You also don't need to scan it

[violet flume]

Thank you. Then I'm kind of frustrated with that. Because basically everything else that I was able to pick up had a PDA entry, so it made it seem like it was a bug.

[elfin ivy]

someone help, i found 2/3 ultrea high oxygen tanks i cant find the last one

[eternal garnet]

ya that one is a headache. Find more nests, I think there are kelp root caves near lilypads. check there

[elfin ivy]

i scavered the whole place, that pilot quest there were alot of seamonkey nests but i got 2/3 tanks

[bold monolith]

If you can't find it, check the wiki. At some point I gave all the locations for all the nests.

Check the nest page.

[elfin ivy]

pretty sure its in specific biomes

[bold monolith]

No, nests are in fixed locations with fixed loot.

[elfin ivy]

isnt the oxygen tank only in lily pad biome

[eternal garnet]

Map site says no, and gives this location

[elfin ivy]

yeah there r 5 nests there and i found them all, still 2/3

[bold monolith]

If I remember correctly there aren't many nest in Kelp Caves with the Ultra High Capacity tank.

More in Lilypads.

Again, https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Sea_Monkey_Nest has all the locations.

[elfin ivy]

imma try to go in kelp cave ig

2/3 here

[elfin ivy]

coordinates r such a headache

explain in simple?

[bold monolith]

Perhaps, but they are accurate and you can't really describe it. There is no special landmark.

I can give you a map.

[elfin ivy]

mann why wasnt tehre 3 of the ultra high oxygen tanks in the lily pad

r kelp caves near twisty bridhes

[bold monolith]

I don't understand this question, as there are 6 nests in Lilypads with the ultra high capacity tank.

[elfin ivy]

i meant in the pilot quest cave

soo there r more outside that cave?

[bold monolith]

There are on the map above.

[elfin ivy]

idk how to follow those maps

[bold monolith]

So, you don't want to use the coordinates and you don't want to use the map. I think you should just explore more the west side of Lilypads by yourself then. As you know you'll find it there.

Start from the pilot last known location and explore around there.

[elfin ivy]

i explored that whole place

[bold monolith]

Maybe the cave below, but you didn't go that far otherwise you would have found the rest.

[elfin ivy]

deep lily?

[bold monolith]

They are not that far from there, the map says so.

No.

[elfin ivy]

i watched yt vids too

[bold monolith]

Usually videos don't tell where fragments spawn in your own game. But in this case, since nests are hand placed it isn't a bad idea.

[elfin ivy]

i still found 2/3 after i watched 3 vids

[bold monolith]

You could place a scanner room above.

You'll find plenty of aquarium module fragments as well, but you should find the ultra high capacity tank too.

[elfin ivy]

i found seatruck upgradses and prawn suit hands

[bold monolith]

I know, nests don't just have the ultra high around there.
