below-zero-chat

[silver imp]

its a good game

[eternal garnet]

yes!

[gritty ginkgo]

I think people often try to compare the two and then don't buy/play it because some say one is better than the other. I think both are really fun and have no qualms about playing either equally. You definitely should buy it and enjoy exploring!

[silver imp]

i like below zero and subnautica

i got below zero yesterday

[zinc void]

day 200 :)

[deep kettle]

Until they remove the old system :p

[eternal garnet]

I don't know why propulsion arm exists

[eternal garnet]

It works. It has no common usage I can think of

[zinc void]

From now on I'll be using console as a means for fast travel.

this so good, almost as if new technology was acquired.

[eternal garnet]

doing that, the world usually doesn't load fast enough, causing issues. also try command ghost

[zinc void]

?

what is that

[eternal garnet]

adjust speed with keys 1-5

just do not ghost in a vehicle

and to see really far, command fog
You will see the low-rez world, but you get used to that

[eternal garnet]

and command day to change time to noon

[zinc void]

glad to see "speed" being an actual command lol

[eternal garnet]

command fly: jump in mid air. (For actual flying use ghost)

[zinc void]

riight

[cerulean pike]

Lad's going somewhere in a hurry

[misty cedar]

Guys when their girlfriends say that their parents aren't home

[silver imp]

i got my first sea truck

[sour mulch]

How do I turn on devs commands for switch version?

[wide dawn]

Considering making an outpost in the ||crystal caves||

[eternal garnet]

Google is a little unclear, but it seems removed because of Nintendo rules. At least the command line is definitely removed

[wide dawn]

I think you hold the shoulder buttons in the menu

Or press them together

[wide dawn]

Another fallout fan?

[cerulean pike]

Indeed sir

[wide dawn]

Patrolling the Mojave makes me wish for a nuclear winter

[tepid wedge]

Is there any hostel creatures near pilot last known location or no

[cerulean pike]

Diving in the Vents makes me wish for a little less iodine

[cerulean pike]

A few

[wide dawn]

No leviathans iirc

[cerulean pike]

Are ||squidsharks|| leviathans?

[wide dawn]

Maybe squidsharks

No

[tepid wedge]

Which ones

[eternal garnet]

Hostel creatures are why I prefer hotels

[cerulean pike]

I can’t remember, also idk why I spoiler-tagged that

[cerulean pike]

Cryptosuchus and maybe squidsharks

[tepid wedge]

Well sh#t

[cerulean pike]

Only like two or three

They’re avoidable if you’re quick

[eternal garnet]

Lost river? no

they are yellow though

this isn't subnautica. Check crashfish nest

this isn't subnautica

if you steal its baby, it get mad at you

upgrade things

explore. If you find a distress call, this is important

rogue suggestions

no it's cool

you can't eat them

unintended, I'm sure

[sacred jungle]

I will stab you 🙂

Nah jk

(Or not)

Im gonna get banned for harrasment and threats!

YIPPEEEE

[eternal garnet]

I warned

[steel stream]

If you don't want to get spoiled, stay away from this chat...

[eternal garnet]

yesbut, we mostly spoiler mark spoilers || ||

why did you click that

yes. The rocks are different, only 2 resources in each. 50% titanium

There is somewhat less fragment hunting

[sacred jungle]

I DONT KNOW

I HAT TO

"Hat"

[eternal garnet]

||||

[sacred jungle]

Me when drink water

[sacred jungle]

Noo i got crashfished

[eternal garnet]

huhu

[sacred jungle]

||||

[sacred jungle]

My || glow whales and rock punchers|| hatched

Im happy

NOOOO

Aaa

[eternal garnet]

A fun command to try: spawn crash 99

[sacred jungle]

Even my ps4 will

Even with the amount of rage hes experienced

[tacit comet]

I doubt it is, it’s possible that it saved the game, and the cyclops will reset in the water every so often. That’s likely what happened.

[sacred jungle]

Sometimes when i get stuck behind some metal (in bz a net at the || koppa mining site || ) i just save and quit and it tps you unstuck

[cerulean pike]

how to explode

Step 1: Summon the Crashfish

[uncut sparrow]

Step 2:

[limpid drum]

I dont think your meant to be able to get into the ||koppa mining site|| with your seatruck but I did it anyway.

Some would call it a glitch but really its just barely squeezing through the top of the door.

[tacit comet]

You can.

[hollow coral]

Whoever said I’d find those ||rock punchers|| I found em 😂

[tacit comet]

Lol

[next current]

They're petty cool, right?

[tacit comet]

They were cut from SN1, right?

Then put into BZ?

[next current]

Yeah.

[hollow coral]

Yeah

[steel stream]

You can also drive seatruck or prawn through the tunnels and enter the big mining cave from the roof

[wide dawn]

I just learned the hard way why not to take a seatruck with multiple modules into a cave

[tacit thorn]

There are places you are not meant to squeeze your setruck into.
Doesn't stop everyone from trying.
You can disconnect cabin and drive the modules out manually if needed.

[wide dawn]

I am

[next current]

It bites.

And runs.

And swims.

[tacit comet]

Or you can pet the babies.

They’re cute. 💖

You can’t pick them up.

[next current]

If only you could pick them up.

[tacit comet]

Great minds think alike.

[next current]

Wait! Maybe you can with the Prop Cannon.

Yeah pretty much.

[tacit comet]

Fren

[steel stream]

I've seen someone bring them to their base with prawn propulsion cannon and putting them in a kind of cage in their base

[next current]

He a big boi.

[eternal garnet]

heat sources: steam vents, open water, caves, any vehicle, peppers, coffee. Can even build a tiny base with no power to warm up

[thorn inlet]

and cats ofc

they're so warm and fuzzu that their warmth extends through the screen into the game

[cerulean pike]

‘Twas I; ||Rock Punchers|| 4ever

It’s called the drop pod, which is also why they didn’t get sued

Also I’m gonna ping on this reply because it’s really not as bad as Innocent X (the fourth best pope) makes it out to be

Between his hatred of the Seatruck, sarcastic remarks about the story, and snarky comment about the Lost River, I think he might be one of those “I Hate BZ” people

That’s a vehicle, you might be able to build one at some point soon

Fragments, like most blueprint stuff

Absolutely not

“It will try to kill you on sight” level

But only kinda up close

You’re close enough to get him to open his mouth?

[eternal garnet]

for pilot's, you want depth mk1 or better

[cerulean pike]

If in a vehicle (which you should be)

The very least you need is probably a seaglide and a good oxygen tank

[eternal garnet]

nah I meant mk1 depth upgrade

[cerulean pike]

There are oxygen plants around there

[eternal garnet]

Its possible to seaglide, there are some o2 plants, not many

[cerulean pike]

Once you get to… uh, the thing, you can replenish your oxygen

Yeah pretty much

The thing you just posted, but that’s about it

If you’re unlucky, something else might occasionally have swam over there

But it’s not likely

They’re all roar and very little bite

No

I don’t think vehicles count as spoilers, so there are three

The Seatruck (truck of the sea), Snowfox (hoverbike for land), and, of course, the PRAWN suit

Seatruck is fairly early game

[eternal garnet]

yes

[cerulean pike]

Fragments aren’t too far away from the drop pod

[eternal garnet]

MVB is a little harder. search kelp root cave monkey nests

[cerulean pike]

Oh yeah that’s another thing

I’m sure you’ve encountered sea monkeys by now

…

why would you do that

Their nests will always have fragments of tools and stuff

Mobile Vehicle Bay

Also stop killing Sea Monkeys!

Eventually they’ll start giving you stuff instead of taking it

I’d recommend being nice for now

Yeah

No

Oh

In that case I think there are 2/3

You probably should but it’s not strictly necessary

They’re around, you just have to look for them

Wait, if you have the pilot signal, then you’ve been to ||Delta Station||

Did you scan the map on the wall?

There’s a map of Sector Zero ||and the main Alterra facilities|| on the wall

You can scan and reference it whenever you need to, it’ll be stored in your PDA

Yes

Unfortunately no

It is an awfully fun game

And there’s land!

And Little Baby Penguins!

Didn’t you try to eat one

You know, you’re not supposed to do that

When you pick one up, the parents will attack you

You might have been too quick for them

Usually they look for the baby for a second or two

And then realize it’s in your hands

[eternal garnet]

Too fast?

[cerulean pike]

before?

[eternal garnet]

no. They leave you alone until you kidnap

[cerulean pike]

dude

uncool

What’s cooler than being cool?

[gritty ginkgo]

Ice Cold!

[cerulean pike]

Alright alright alright alright alright!

Below Zero

Oh boy

Usually in biomes you can see the seafloor from the surface (except in the void), but there’s one in BZ where you can’t and it’s not even the void

And you’ll sometimes just hear screeching and roaring from the depths

Yeah but at least you can see what’s screaming at you

And also the ground

In the biome in question, you can see neither

Until you go down there, obviously

But y’know

I think it’s just that squidshark

floor

If you have a seaglide you can get past them

But keep your distance

There’s lithium

Tons of lithium

You might see

But probably not

It might only happen in the deep purple vents, I’m not sure

Yeah

It doesn’t swim in the shallow or regular purple vents

I think it’s just the deep, and only sometimes

If you build the dock module, yes

Oh yeah the Seatruck has modules

That have different functions and are built separately

Not strictly speaking I don’t think, but more than 3 will slow it down

And it gets slower with each new module

I recommend like 3 or 4 modules at most

The speed decrease isn’t too bad at that number of modules

It’s a leviathan

That’s about it, they’re pretty big

Also that’s what I was talking about with the thing in the deep purple vents

No

I think there are only four chelicerates

One of them can occasionally swim to the deep vents

But it’s not where it usually is

if you want to try that I can’t stop you

[misty cedar]

Is there a command to change my game mode (as in change from creative to survival)

[eternal garnet]

use Esc, options, game options

It's not possible to enable Story this way

[misty cedar]

Oh

Ty

[frank sentinel]

does Ben Prunty have a discord account?

[wide dawn]

I'm about to give up on trying to get prawn grappling arm fragments

[tacit comet]

No clue lmao.

[wide dawn]

It says they're in the lilypad crevice sea monkey nests but the few I've found had none

[eternal garnet]

there are so many monkey nests, and several different crevices

all around the big central rock that may hide secrets, Several secrets

[wide dawn]

I finally found one

Yeah I give up

I got here with like 96 power and I have 29 now

[worldly urchin]

I don't remember how to launch BZ in vr help

[eternal garnet]

There's no VR in BZ. I think there's a mod for it

[frank sentinel]

helpful

the kelp forests i think

in caves

[eternal garnet]

kelp root caves, and lilypad crevices and tunnels.

Lilypads is probably a bit later game

[frank sentinel]

yes

[tacit comet]

It’s a biome, roughly southeast of Delta Island.

iirc.

I believe it can, I’d have to double check though.

Yup!

It can have those.

Yeah.

But it’s exploring! It’ll be cool, I’m sure of it.

[frank sentinel]

nuh uh

[eternal garnet]

twisty bridges, and a tiny brute shark

[tacit comet]

Not incredibly, but they’re annoying like Crabsquids.

Lol

They can be spooky sometimes.

I don’t know any creatures in either game that can one shot you other than the ||Sea Drag|| in SN1.

It does not.

It does 80 damage, or if you’re below or at that, it’ll kill you.

Keep you health topped up.

Yup.

But only if you’re at 80 or less health.

So it doesn’t one shot a full health player.

[eternal garnet]

Your favorite fishy made it into BZ, aww

[modern edge]

guys where do i find diamond? also the seatruck having 150 depth when you get it is wild

[eternal garnet]

it does upgrade well tho
Deep twisty bridges, below 300m. There are many o2 plants.

[modern edge]

yeah i know im really close to getting the upgrade for the depth just need a single diamond

[eternal garnet]

ah yes. Pin that recipe, and only that. Find monkeys. This assumes you have a friend in your brain

Sea monkey gifts are only 50% random

[chrome cedar]

All the nonsense goes in the main Subnautica channel. 😂

[gritty moth]

I've lost my ||Hoverbike|| three times now....

It keeps clipping through the ground whenever I want to use it...

[tacit comet]

Yeah, it’s a little buggy.

Try keeping it on a charging platform.

You look tasty to him.

Like enchiladas.

[chrome cedar]

You pretty much need it.

Most creatures can be avoided fairly easily there.

[eager sapphire]

can someone help me with my seatruck? it's stuck 💀

[chrome cedar]

Yes, there are some decent bits there, especially if you want to complete all the story lines.

[chrome cedar]

Stuck how?

[tacit comet]

Sure! Send a screenie?

[eager sapphire]

can you send screenshots in this chat?

[chrome cedar]

Yes

[eager sapphire]

alright, you're gonna laugh

[chrome cedar]

Prawn or Sea Truck are preferred

[eager sapphire]

yeah. 😭

[chrome cedar]

Can you push it at all?

[tacit comet]

Maybe pick something up with the propulsion cannon to move it with?

[eager sapphire]

i forgot about those

[chrome cedar]

Propulsion yes, repulsion no

[eager sapphire]

maybe, let me see

[chrome cedar]

Do you have a prawn yet? Should work.

I had a sea truck module land on my base when it was build and had to push it off with my prawn. Only way that it would move.

[eager sapphire]

yeah

i have a prawn

try and push it with the prawn?

[chrome cedar]

Yes

Or worst case just reload your last save if you’re not too far in.

[eager sapphire]

YO

IT WORKED

[chrome cedar]

I’ve had to lose time more than a few times for boneheaded stuff.

[eager sapphire]

thanks lmao

[chrome cedar]

Sweet!

[eager sapphire]

tell me about it

💀

[chrome cedar]

I’m sure we all have stories. 😂

I’ve done a lot of play throughs.

[eager sapphire]

this is still my first playthrough of below zero

i picked up the game in like, 2021

got off of it, and picked it up again like 3 days ago

[chrome cedar]

Brinewing. Use your arms and it helps break the freeze faster.

[wide dawn]

Wanna hear something funny

I was having so much trouble finding the 2nd grappling arm fragment

I went back to my base, got all the things I needed to make a scanner room, bioreactor to power it, and the scanner range upgrade and hud chip

Went all the way back to the lilypad crevice

Right before I was going to build the scanner room, I found the 2nd arm fragment

[chrome cedar]

Build the scanner anyway, never know what you might find.

[wide dawn]

I am

[hot torrent]

Hi ppl, you fellow subnautica players are like the sweetest human beings on earth, love yall 🤟🫶

[brittle maple]

Pegwing zoo

@unkempt scroll I did they look like a army going in 1 direction @unkempt scroll

I kidnapped 50 but it was cute seeing them all go together

I wish I could edit this to look like the pegwings

[still marten]

I was listening to the soundtrack of the first game one of the soundtrack said dark matter reactor is that something new coming to the third subnautica whenever it comes out

[tacit comet]

Nothing has been confirmed for Subnautica 2 (third installment in the series), but I think the name of this song is unrelated.

[limpid drum]

what outcrops give gold again?

is it just calverite or?

[tacit comet]

Calverite, yeah.

[limpid drum]

also I have officially moved my base to delta island near the ||koppa mining site||

[tacit comet]

Cool.

[limpid drum]

I purposefully placed it basically ontop of a heat vent so I could get power out of it

[tacit comet]

I’m near there, in the Twisty Bridges.

Thermal power is fire.

[limpid drum]

It works okay right now, seemed to only go down very, very slowly even with 2 power cells, 3 batteries and a water filtration going-

Might need to expand it before I add my scanner room though

Only 1 thermal plant at the moment

[tacit comet]

Or don’t run the all at once.

Only 1 plant, wow.

[limpid drum]

The temp of the vent is 50c even when its not blowing up

[tacit comet]

[cerulean pike]

Toasty

[limpid drum]

My character got 3rd degree burns while building the plant but it was worth it

👍

[tacit comet]

[limpid drum]

The nice part about being next to the ||koppa mining site|| and all the vents near it is diamond, ruby and stuff like that really isn't an issue anymore-

crap I forgot to bring some arctic kelp to plant at my base

oh I dont even have the exterior growbed yet dammit-

[tacit comet]

Yeah.

It can be a pain.

But once you have a farm set up, all should be good.

[limpid drum]

right now I have a greenhouse in my base that grows lantern fruit, frost vase plants and pepper plants

but thats all

[tacit comet]

That’s awesome.

Spicy Fruit Salad my beloved.

[limpid drum]

how do you make that again-

[cerulean pike]

Fevered pepper and something or other

I think

[limpid drum]

Dont you have to get the recipe from || margeurit || or something?

or am I just losing my mind-

[cerulean pike]

Yeah you’re right

[limpid drum]

Also do spiral plants grow inside or outside? And are you able to grow them?

[cerulean pike]

You can grow them in exterior grow beds

[noble sky]

||spiral plants grow inside of a leviathan called the vent garden. The vent garden is found a couple hundred meters away from the Delta station dock. You can enter the vent garden from the bottom and cut it out.|| (Sorry if you already knew this )

[limpid drum]

I think I saw a ton of ||ventgardens|| swimming around near phi robotics

[cerulean pike]

Those are eye jellies

[limpid drum]

oh really?

[cerulean pike]

Yes

[limpid drum]

they look so similar-

[noble sky]

||yeah. Vent gardens will actually, move. Eye jellies kinda stay in place||

[cerulean pike]

Other way around

Unless you mean the juveniles

[noble sky]

Well, not exactly. ||I remember seeing three vent gardens above mercury 2. They were moving pretty swiftly for their size.||

[cerulean pike]

In which case you’re right

[noble sky]

Oh yeah

[cerulean pike]

But the mature ones are completely stationary

[noble sky]

Dunno what they be doin

[cerulean pike]

They be taking in the Vent Fume

[brittle maple]

Well you can get out side of the map it's all just a floating rock

[limpid drum]

Wait you can actually find them there?

If so thats probably the closest placeee I can get them

[cerulean pike]

Not the ones that yield spiral plants

[limpid drum]

oh dammit

[cerulean pike]

The ones that move are juveniles

There are two stationary mature ones

Those have the plants in them

[limpid drum]

hmm okay

[cerulean pike]

At least I think there are two

[limpid drum]

Would I be better off just going to ||Deep Purple Vents|| for the spiral plant?

[noble sky]

If I remember correctly, ||go to the Delta dock. Face left, circle the island till you see either spires or copper deposits. Face those, and start moving forward.|| (Idk I could be wrong ig)

[cerulean pike]

Maybe

[limpid drum]

I think I might switch to bladderfish for my water

Aka put them in an alien containment and let them reproduce

[cerulean pike]

That’s a good plan

Basically infinite water supply

[steel stream]

Or just build a water filtration machine

[limpid drum]

damn im missing one laser cutter fragment so I cant get to ||mercury II|| yet

[cerulean pike]

You could, but then you’d miss out on Bladderfish Aquarium Room™️

[lyric wind]

Can reactor things be reused or are they just done?

[cerulean pike]

Reactor rods have to be disposed of in a nuclear waste disposal once depleted, and new ones must be made

[lyric wind]

Can I reuse them by putting them on the recycle-tron?

[steel stream]

You can try...but I guess not because the item is not 'reactor rod', it's 'depleted reactor rod' (or something like that, main point that it's different item)

[random topaz]

isnt it wierd theres no kharaa in bz, no creatures infected, only an ancient creature had it.

[random topaz]

just throw it in a trash pile

[misty cedar]

It was supposedly healed in sector zero which doesn't make a lot of sense unless the enzyme traveled through the void

[sacred jungle]

Maybe theres a creature that could survive in both sectors. Or the microorganisms brought enzyme 42 over

[sacred jungle]

In the void

[cloud nest]

Does anyone have any good base set-up area recommendations?
And any templates??

[carmine bobcat]

on the map

[cloud nest]

-_-

[carmine bobcat]

Hey thats a fair answer

[cloud nest]

I mean yeah, but exactly where 😭

[carmine fiber]

Guys I just got the game any tips?

[carmine bobcat]

Remember to keep an eye on your o2

[carmine bobcat]

Idk
I built in an area with room for a moonpool

[steel stream]

Explore, scan, read pda.

[random topaz]

the void allows microorganism to live

[cloud nest]

When out of water keep an eye on your temperature. Using those like heat lilies (I can’t remember the name) will fill the meter to 100 again.

[random topaz]

Only touch a walkthrough if you're stuck to avoid being spoiled. I learnt the hard way.

why is my temperature decreasing if i have a cold suit???

[stoic surge]

The cold suit reduces heat loss, doesn't stop it completely

[random topaz]

man it was such a pain getting snow stalker fur

[stoic surge]

Still good to have tho

Fun fact - the pengi-bot can carry 4 furs, and you need a total of 4 to make the suit parts 🙂

Convenient, yes?

[sacred jungle]

Cant br a coincidence

[random topaz]

how do i get root pustules

[random topaz]

it would be so easy to battle the shadow leviathan if we had a stasis rifle :(

[stark escarp]

There isn't a stasis rifle in BZ? Ok im not playing that sorry

[next current]

Lol wut?

[next current]

Maybe you're NOT supposed to fight it.

[tepid wedge]

I died by a squid shark

[carmine gate]

I just got below zero can I have some tips

Do sea monkeys always steal your stuff

Or is it random chance he will

[sonic cape]

they'll do it a couple times but it's only if you're not moving too much

just make sure to hold nothing/seaglide while swimming around and you'll be fine

[carmine gate]

Okay

What is the best place for recourse

[sonic cape]

lol i only saw that it hints at doing that after having the cold suit for ages, i just went in with a flare

[sonic cape]

which ones

[carmine gate]

Lead lithium diamonds

[sonic cape]

lead is Galena Outcrops, look in the shallows and the twisty bridges (around drop pod there are some)

[carmine gate]

okay

[sonic cape]

lithium is a bit harder, there is some right at the bottom of the twisty bridges bu tit's a bit dangerous early game, otherwise near heat sources if you find those, i'm not sure

diamons i can't remember either

actually lithium and diamonds you can find some in surface areas

[carmine gate]

I heard there are some bases

[sonic cape]

idk what areas you've found yet

[carmine gate]

What are they called again

[sonic cape]

but you don't nees diamonds and lithium early on

[carmine gate]

Smth omaga

[sonic cape]

or lead

[carmine gate]

omega maybe

okay and one other thing

[sonic cape]

what have you done so far?

the game will give you hints and beacons

[carmine gate]

Getting recourses atm

Just started like 2 min

[sonic cape]

well don't worry about bases or late-game materials

focus on getting started

[carmine gate]

in what biomes are levithans I know that there are in the crystals but what about others

[sonic cape]

no spoilers there

you'll just have to see

[carmine gate]

I found a sea truck fragment

is it like a cyclops ??

[sonic cape]

that's great!

you should get a databank entry

[carmine gate]

U can attach other things to it?

[sonic cape]

go look at that

the game tells you most of everything you need to know

[carmine gate]

okay

[sonic cape]

and part of the fun is not knowing

[carmine gate]

and last question for it then jam go grind

[sonic cape]

ovc

[carmine gate]

Can u get the marguerites prawn

[sonic cape]

nope

[carmine gate]

Below zero took a L

It looks cool in trailer

[sonic cape]

i mean that's the point

marguerit's a bit weird and kills things to make stuff all messy

[carmine gate]

does she kill me if I meet her

she sounds mad

[sonic cape]

no spoilers

have you played subnautica, the original one?

[carmine gate]

Just finished it today

Now I wanna go to below zero

[sonic cape]

did you find bases in that one?

[carmine gate]

Degasi ones?

[sonic cape]

yea

[carmine gate]

Ik she’s one of em

[sonic cape]

yeah do you remember the pdas from there

[carmine gate]

Yeah I know what happened to her

[sonic cape]

cool

[carmine gate]

Bart torgal marguerite maida and another torgal

[sonic cape]

so you know she's a badass

[carmine gate]

yeah she’s a baddass

Still confused how she survived Khaara

In the game does it say what happened to her after the last pda in the original game

[sonic cape]

yea

[carmine gate]

I wanna hear what’s her story

[sonic cape]

doesnt really mention kharaa

[carmine gate]

oh okay

[sonic cape]

maybe she got lucky and wasn't infected?

[carmine gate]

they were al infected

[sonic cape]

or not as much? and she could survive until the enzyme was released

[carmine gate]

In the original game

A pda said taht Bart was looking at the virus and he said

isn’t it weird u all have Bridget’s and they are green

Marguerite asked what it was

So she was infected

blisters npt bridgets

[sonic cape]

yea

idk she's tough

[carmine gate]

She reminds me of my grandgrandma

How old is she even

[sacred jungle]

Like 52-54

[sacred jungle]

Omega lab

[sacred jungle]

|| When she was in the reaper she ate his flesh, and all leviathans cant get infected. Even reapers. So I think she ate some thing from the reaper that cured her or made her immune. ||

[sonic cape]

oooh that's smart

wait hang on

||the frozen leviathan is infected so idk if that's maybe more of a gameplay thing?||

||cos other fish respawn but levys don't||

[sacred jungle]

|| Im pretty sure if you scan it it says that it fell through the ice. So i guess the kharaa also froze? ||

|| But idk how it might have gotten infected ||

[sonic cape]

||yeah but it was still infected, just died from falling through instead of the bacteria||

[cerulean pike]

||The frozen leviathan fell through the ice around 1,000 years ago I think; it was infected with Kharaa, which was also preserved in ice||

[sonic cape]

||i think only the emperor is immune bc of enzyme 42||

[cerulean pike]

||Enzyme 42 was probably distributed throughout the planet in the 2 or so years between Subnautica and BZ||

[tepid wedge]

The frozen levitation isn’t dead it just in a state where its alive but it’s a sleeping and will stay sleeping

[sonic cape]

not rly the point lol

[sonic cape]

spoiler this

also no

[cerulean pike]

I don’t even think that’s true anyway

[sonic cape]

yeah it's not lol but mentions of the FL should be spoilered

[cerulean pike]

Oh wait a minute

[cerulean pike]

Oh I missed this message

I see the point now

Yeah I think that was purely a gameplay thing

[sonic cape]

yea

but theres ten years between subnautica and below zero

so it's not a matter of toughing it out

[cerulean pike]

Maybe she ate the ||enzyme peepers from Subnautica||

[sonic cape]

she was in the void so i doubt that

[cerulean pike]

Perhaps prior to the ||Reaper Ride™️ ||

[brittle maple]

I have a question

Why just why Do you have to swim up its butt just to get red coral

I just realized this

[cerulean pike]

Technically wouldn’t it’s top be the “butt”, since that’s where it expels waste and whatnot?

The thing you swim through would be the mouth

[brittle maple]

....

[sonic cape]

and i mean those only slow and not for ten years on just a few

[sonic cape]

you can find it in other places tho its just easier here

[brittle maple]

||I got bored so every time I die I take a shot ||

[sonic cape]

go to the arctic spires with no cold suit no snowfox

no prawn

[brittle maple]

Otay

[sacred jungle]

I think its a way for plants to grow in it

[obsidian gate]

please help what am i supposed to do im stuck trying to find an explosive i think

[sacred jungle]

Remember to spoiler mark stuff. Altho this isnt a big spoiler : D

[sacred jungle]

Can you send a picture

[carmine bobcat]

👍

[obsidian gate]

how do i make an image a spoiler

[gritty ginkgo]

You click on the eye symbol after pasting it. If on mobile, tap the image for options

[sonic cape]

you just walk in

no explosive needed

[obsidian gate]

i already did

im confused

||
||

[sonic cape]

theres a door and a staircase to the left, and if you go under the base to the right theres stuff too

[obsidian gate]

||margret and sam in a pda said something about an explosive to block a cave and get rid of the lab||

[cerulean pike]

That already happened before the game started

[obsidian gate]

||am i looking for an antidote then||

[cerulean pike]

Yes

[sacred jungle]

Correct

There should be a map somewhere in pho robotics that will help you

[lyric wind]

Is there any need for me to be at ||phi robotics|| after exploring the cave thingy

[tacit comet]

Sorry and lore if you haven’t gotten that already.

There are some items.

[lyric wind]

What about the ||spy pengling|| for snow fox fur

[tacit comet]

If you don’t have that you could get it.

It’s only use is for the cold suit iirc.

[lyric wind]

Alright, is there any signal range or can I just use it freely?

Actually idek how to use it I just put it down 💀

[tacit comet]

There is range.

You’ll get static if it’s too far.

Just drop it to deploy.

Have the remote in your hand.

[lyric wind]

I don't believe I have a remote for it

I guess I have to make that separately

[cerulean pike]

You do, but it’s pretty inexpensive material-wise

[steel stream]

Mind your temperature while using the bengi-bot...preferably in a cave or build a simple base

[lyric wind]

Alright

Where's the nearest ||spy pengling entrance on phi area|| if anyone knows?

[tacit comet]

There should be a map in phi or somewhere.

It’s super helpful, shows all the pengling entrances.

Also, any little small radio machine on the ground that beeps and has a red light is a pengling entrance.

[lyric wind]

Alrighty, my remote just vibrated I'm think im getting a little too close to the ||ice worms|| 💀

[steel stream]

You can also build a scanner room and scan for spy pengling sites...

[lyric wind]

I'll definitely do that now

[sacred jungle]

Dont forget to walk

[next current]

It sits on top of an island.

There is a geological tech site, a cave filled with Crystaline Sulphur, and a spy pengling site

[tepid wedge]

My base on my custom save I have three sea trucks & two prawn suits

[next current]

Nice to see people using the custom game mode.

Other Pengwings will chase and attack you.

Give them a minute and they'll forget about you.

[tepid wedge]

And the base is huge

I would love to see a shadow leviathan and ghost leviathan fight

[eternal garnet]

Or, you could be a decent human bean

[next current]

What settings did you change up?

[eternal garnet]

actually not a lot

some squiddies. Oh and a drug peddling fish

80 to a swimmer, maybe 20 to a truck. But mostly it disables power for 4s

it's not a lot. They are big, nearly leviathan. Nearly, I said

[tepid wedge]

Not much I turned off were I don’t need blueprints

[eternal garnet]

Creative: Turns off so I don't need to play the game

(I'm not a fan of creative, but if you like it, nice)

[steel stream]

Can also select in custom game mode whether you need blueprints and/or materials to build

[tepid wedge]

Oxygen and thirst and body temperature are all off

But I still need to gather the resources tho

[eternal garnet]

for a more relaxing game, yes

[steel stream]

But custom game mode with any settings, even identical to survival will disable achievements, at least in ps4

[tepid wedge]

No I think not

[steel stream]

Go and see (save if you're not sure)

[tepid wedge]

It is nice it like the reef back leviathan

[next current]

I applaud your bravery.

[eternal garnet]

it's even nicer. Go ride its head. Wonderful

[next current]

You may ride A animal.

[eternal garnet]

I don't think you can ride the pinnacarids anymore. Idk why. Sad

You could steer them

I blame PETA

[next current]

I don't. I don't even think they know about Subnautica.

[eternal garnet]

I was so serious then

But really, maybe some higher up said, No, this is too much fun. No fun allowed

A right - to be cooked

[tepid wedge]

How do I load torpedos in the prawn suit torpedo arm???

Nvm

[eternal garnet]

Very carefully.

[tacit thorn]

Also remember that gas torpeedos only work on stationary targets that stay in the cloud

[eternal garnet]

they certainly aren't necessary

[tacit thorn]

Note that purple geysers are not hot enough for geothermal power, sadly.

There are couple laval pools in caves near delta island tho.

yes, a lot

Bon appetite!

no, but they are biocompostable

[next current]

What are you looking for out of a base location?

Like power, resources, looks, etc.

[chrome cedar]

||Delta island|| is pretty centered in the map, makes is convenient.

I did a base at the purple vents, placed a few rooms, glass ceiling to admire the view. But sadly it never actually gets dark there, it would have been spectacular otherwise.

[tacit thorn]

I have a base left from delta island. close to everything, lava pools for power nearby, and the secret mining outpost next door.

[chrome cedar]

I did both. Underwater section for docking, large rooms up on land, connected with vertical tubes.

[next current]

The Tree Spires is a good location.

[chrome cedar]

||Koppa||

[tacit thorn]

If you got the map, its one next to delta island

[chrome cedar]

It’s possible, but not a great idea.

[tacit thorn]

Yes and no. With modules you can get fabrication, storage, sleeping quarters and a jack to carry prawn araound. But you can't 'build' anything inside.

[chrome cedar]

That is, you can’t use the habitat builder inside the vehicle to add more storage and such.

Plus you’d still need a base of sorts to charge it back up.

Not for the truck, prawn yes.

[tacit thorn]

truck uses same cells as prawn, so in theory you could swap them out and charge with prawn

[chrome cedar]

There are plenty of thermal vents you could park nearby.

I just had a locker with parts for a sea dock and thermal generator, set it up as needed in case of emergency.

[tacit thorn]

nuclear power cells last for trips several days long. You're more likely going to run out of cargo space and have to drop the haul before running out of power

[chrome cedar]

Ion you mean.

[tacit thorn]

speaking of space, there will be an ||uncrafter|| device later on, so you can compress your ores into bars etc to save truck space

[chrome cedar]

I love those guys.

[tacit thorn]

Is your first name davey by chance?

davey jones?

and his locker 😂

I guess there is no 'legal' way to get the molten gold out of this place, yes?

[chrome cedar]

😂

[chrome cedar]

Grav trap?

[tacit thorn]

for some reason they dont react. then it melts...

[chrome cedar]

Interesting. I’ve had titanium and other metals get dropped when I died in similar spots, they didn’t melt. I was able to get back and collect them with the prawn.

Anything that glitches below the floor I can usually snag with a grav trap.

[next current]

You don't

[chrome cedar]

You do, different recipe

[next current]

Oh right. This is BZ.

[chrome cedar]

Glass, diamond, and lead I believe.

[next current]

Yeah, it's a toothless recipe now.

[chrome cedar]

😂

I do like how the fabricator adapts to the available materials.

[next current]

Yeah lol.

:(

[tacit thorn]

find the secret mine. it has diamonds that you can forge into better glass

||koppa mining outpost|| Which always makes me laugh, because in my native language mine is spelled "kopalnia"

nope

seatruck with depth upgrade can

[chrome cedar]

I thought it could reach that beacon. But the pilot is deeper.

[eternal garnet]

with mk1 you can get close enough. Not far to swim then

[chrome cedar]

Just follow the lights.

[eternal garnet]

no, they don't touch a parked truck

well, they might bump it a little so dont park at 299

[tacit thorn]

do you have turbo module and repair thingy?

[chrome cedar]

You got hints about the mine from some PDAs you pick up.

And there is a map somewhere that shows the location.

[tacit thorn]

it is recommended you scan a map in one of the outposts

[chrome cedar]

Not sure now which pda or where, just remember it was referenced.

So much of the game can be learned from reading each entry you pick up, but most folks don’t put the clues together until after.

They are letters in the Greek alphabet.

Alpha, Delta, Koppa, Omega

Phi

[cerulean pike]

There's no Alpha

Instead it's a zero with a slash through it

There's a key included in the PDA entry, you just have to know which Greek letter name corresponds to which symbol

[chrome cedar]

Right, sorry.

[cerulean pike]

That's where the map is, yes

Once you scan it you'll get a PDA entry

The entry includes both the map and the key

There's text underneath the map in the PDA entry

That's the key, you just have to know which letters are which

[wild kindle]

does this work like an ender chest from minecraft?

[eternal garnet]

it does, yes

[wild kindle]

cool

[eternal garnet]

and without harming any endermen

[wild kindle]

true

the one with the moonpool bluebrint?

[tacit thorn]

koppa is about 150m deep

[wild kindle]

i dont know the names lol

im quite new

[lime grove]

how else would they show where it is

should it be under the water on the map thus making it invisible

you sure that isnt delta?

[tacit thorn]

nope, midle of the island is delta, the triangle

nope, delta is the island. volcanic

[lime grove]

go to delta dock and follow the seabed around the island until you find a dropoff

[sonic cape]

no it doesn't lol

[lime grove]

just make sure to go the opposite way of purple vents

or else you will have to swim longer

[ember walrus]

im never coming back there ever again

[eternal garnet]

koppa is brown, delta yellow

[tacit thorn]

Nie bądź taki, on chce sie tylko przytulić / Don't be like that, he just wants a hug.

[eternal garnet]

or you can google these greek letters

[ember walrus]

chyba chce przytulić się

[eternal garnet]

only english please

[ember walrus]

,,i think it wants a hug"

bro thats like el gran maya

wtf

the worst thing with that thing is the fact it was in a cave

[tacit thorn]

Oh Boy, sure it does

[ember walrus]

Even worse it was very silent until i heard something like ,,leviathan class creature near by" i crapped my pants

[ember walrus]

shouldve said go find out

missed ur chance

how far away

[tacit thorn]

You will get a fair warning from PDA 'entering biological dead zone'
But only once, ever

[ember walrus]

at what progress u are rn?

[tacit thorn]

'swimming' sounds like very early game

koppa mine, or some fiery pits nearby delta have them

remember to scan your first diamond to add it to scanner signatures

when you hear ed sheeran singing 'I see fire" you'll know you found them

[sonic cape]

honestly the answer is always just.. keep exploring, follow beacons

and for diamonds go to the deep twisty bridges

[tacit thorn]

diamonds in deep twisty are below 150m line, arent they?

[ember walrus]

get prawn its op

[tacit thorn]

the canyon between lifepod and delta island

[sonic cape]

yeah where it gets cavey

the bridges that are twisty, then go deep
honestly no idea how to describe it other than that

close to your lifepod

[ember walrus]

diamonds are ez to get

i got like a whole inventory of them

[sonic cape]

k

[tacit thorn]

Yes?

[ember walrus]

dang

aight ima go incase any spoliers i want to see the ending of the game myself

[sonic cape]

yeah, bit later in the game tho, follow the beacons and data entries you have for now

[tacit thorn]

death to squidsharks?

[sonic cape]

spoilers should be marked with ||this||

that's how survival games work lol

yea also lol

and damn materials arent hard to find if you actually explore stuff

no offense

[tacit thorn]

You could make an educated guess that the "mine" on the map may contain useful stuff.

its the marker next to delta island

[sonic cape]

bruh google

and like explore stuff ig, look around

go see what it is

and process of elimination

[tacit thorn]

I also recommend visiting all the land sites (markers on map) and by route of elimination you'll figure out which marker it is. I assume you recognize omega

[ember walrus]

im back again

[sonic cape]

and delta

[ember walrus]

i unlocked ion battries and powercells

[sonic cape]

make one

[tacit thorn]

we have been proven it is not the case 🤣

[sonic cape]

and the map. is like all maps. north up. cos its a map.

[sonic cape]

well that's true

im honestly stunned cos i learned this in school and like its general knowledge where i live

like at least alpha delta omega

and then the rest you can figure out

zero is the zero phi is the one that looks like a P and koppa is the last one

idk where you kive man but

[tacit thorn]

Greek letters are not easy, especially if you didn't finish any serious math in school

[sonic cape]

where i live you see greek letters in math in your core subjects, like the non-optional ones

but anyway

point is the map is more aout location

yeah dude what the hell does grade 9 mean

ages pls ;-;

thanks genius

[tacit thorn]

school is different in diff part of the world

[sonic cape]

mh yeah ok fair enough

[tacit thorn]

did you start school at age 6? 7? 8?

depends on country

[sonic cape]

do you count backwards for grades? forwards? entirely changes

anyway

for resources just look

find a beacon and go towards it

see a cool thing? go take a look

deeper area? try to get as close as you can safely, see what you can find in a quick trip

it's... kinda the point of the game

[tacit thorn]

also: a lot of game area is on the land. grab some hot coffe and go explore.

[sonic cape]

avoid them

again, the point

get as close as you can, continue without the seamoth, see if you can get there

[tacit thorn]

have you explored all 2 (3) land bases yet?

[ember walrus]

go find out why to avoid them

[sonic cape]

if not, go to another

[sonic cape]

got through your PDA database, look for where it's pointing you

[tacit thorn]

you can find magentite on land for compass. bring grav ball

[sonic cape]

check your beacons

maybe delta island is land

[tacit thorn]

tip: there is land next to your drop pod. explore

[sonic cape]

tip for the survival game: explore

and go to the pilot then

scan everything you can, look around

follow the shoreline

even then you don't have to go to the land before way further into the story

[tacit thorn]

you'll find a comfy nook to park a truck

[sonic cape]

start with delta and pilot

[tacit thorn]

I would advise going away from the pilot.

[sonic cape]

idk, go see

[tacit thorn]

well, chasing the pilot progresses the story, and right now you seem ill prepared for next stages.

[sonic cape]

damn right

just... explore

[tacit thorn]

thus, go opposite direction from it

[sonic cape]

stop looking for diamonds, magnetite, whatever just get your O2 tank, a seatruck

smaller steps

maybe get the damn compass

go to your blueprints see what you can make

try to find those ingredients

[tacit thorn]

knife, scanner. compass are like basic shopping list

[sonic cape]

go to database see if it's hinting at anything

follow the beacons you have

go back to delta and scan everything there

[ember walrus]

go to pilot last seen place go underground and scan everything there

there u will get helpful things

[sonic cape]

scan everything in delta station too

grab any abandoned PDAs

[fleet valve]

What is more scary below zero or subnautica 1?

[chrome cedar]

Yes

[eternal garnet]

I agree. Yes

[wooden shore]

Yes

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Lw66huuHvN4&feature=share

[wooden shore]

Alterra boot up or cyclops
Yo my bad this is below zero💀

[cerulean pike]

Alterra👍

[stark escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/alterra-logo-spinning-gif-14922075

[cerulean pike]

:(

[wooden shore]

Alterra is as nothing but mr krabs as a business💀

[stark escarp]

Mr Krabs can survive in the sea tho

[wooden shore]

Yea so

Alterra has the greed and attitude of mr krabs

Ryley was forced to pay 1 trillion before landing and Alterra is overall not good

[stark escarp]

Alterra can't survive a damn meteor shower

Nevermind a blast at the ship's hull

[wooden shore]

Yea ik if they had any defenses on the aurora they wouldn’t stop it

[stark escarp]

I was talking about the meteorite shower in BZ

[wooden shore]

Oh

Mb

[tacit hawk]

seatruck

[silver imp]

can someone say how deep it is to architect artifact

[next sage]

I think it's below 150m

[silver imp]

ok i think i can do there with my prawn suit

[next sage]

yea

[silver imp]

bye

[next sage]

bye

[sacred jungle]

Bye

[ember walrus]

bro idk what to do

[eternal garnet]

what do? 30 seconds of oxygen remaining.

[ember walrus]

save the game and leave when u fail so u restart and think again or depends where u are

bro idk what TO DO NOW

im stuck with progress

this alien takes to long to find things

[eternal garnet]

oh noe.
Do not rely on him telling you where to go. Nope.
Explore. Use clues you already have. Yes that means reading PDAs

Or, ask us which is like cheating

[ember walrus]

i did read all

[eternal garnet]

But then we need to know where you are in progress

How many body parts scanned? I expect 1

[ember walrus]

i scanned 7 artifacts i got a good prawn suit a base

But 0 parts

[eternal garnet]

check bottom of recipe list. How many are done?

0?

[ember walrus]

yews

[eternal garnet]

You will get one beacon for body parts. The other two you only get clues. You probably have this beacon, ||"architect body cache"||

[ember walrus]

i was there alr

it did nothing

[eternal garnet]

k, go back and scan ||skeleton on the floor||

[eternal garnet]

whle there, pick up nickel, unique resource. And also magnetite

And the small mushrooms (plant them) and the orange globes

[ember walrus]

ok

i scanned the bonew

[eternal garnet]

Have you been on land? South of the bridge? North?

[ember walrus]

i was on delta

and the thingy where sam worked but didnt explore mouch (i got there by accident)

[eternal garnet]

nah. Big land. Go northwest from delta. You should run into a big cable. Follow it until it drops deep. Surface there ,you should see a dock just west. Land. Walk west

[ember walrus]

we forgor the spoiler thingy ☠️

[eternal garnet]

This is just an expanded "go west"

This land area is Huge, and is split in south and north (more late game) by the bridge

It's a forced split as the bridge needs repair

[ember walrus]

what are those orange globes for

[eternal garnet]

ingredient. Probably 6 will be enough

I never counted

[ember walrus]

i got perfectly 6

[eternal garnet]

They also make nice red outdoor lighting for your base

[ember walrus]

ill go to land with prawn since i dont have the heating clothes

[eternal garnet]

sure

There are some angry creatures. The key to deal with them: ||hold a flare||

[ember walrus]

i know about them

i usualy kill them

so far i see no cable

even tho i hit the wall

i see cable

[eternal garnet]

follow it west, until it drops deep then go up

when you walk west a little bit you get a beacon

[ember walrus]

ye phi robotics

[eternal garnet]

missable inside Phi: scan the wall map

[eternal garnet]

oh no it's in polish it's all broken I am kidding yes

[ember walrus]

so what do i do now

[eternal garnet]

explore

[solemn zodiac]

Go in

[eternal garnet]

also missable, inside here, behind base in the wall, Magnetite

[ember walrus]

i was there i scanned the map

[eternal garnet]

so on the map, there's a tree area left. This is important

It is also silly beautiful

[ember walrus]

which one

[eternal garnet]

You did not scan the map in Phi. It goes here

[ember walrus]

i dont have the gravity gun to explore it fully tho

[eternal garnet]

If you look closer, left side of this map, you can see how big the land area is

You don't need it. It only enables one cave with goodies

[ember walrus]

i dont see the map anywhre

[eternal garnet]

in the office

There are two doors in

[ember walrus]

i think i found it

[eternal garnet]

read it in the PDA for better view. Someone scribbled a clue on it

yes

Phi is center

[ember walrus]

murdered bros parents when he was asleep

it was in self defense tho

im at the forest and i dont see any hype

[ember walrus]

im there

i found a room

||Parvan room||

[eternal garnet]

nice. yes
Did you pet the baby dog? so cute

[ember walrus]

i am flabbergasted

[eternal garnet]

cold boy

Those peppers. Nice food for growing at home, and also for emergency heat here

[ember walrus]

so far nothing that important like u said

scanned the big boy

[eternal garnet]

it's the cold boy. Also your sister... find this PDA

[ember walrus]

shoudlve said find pda

[eternal garnet]

in the exit

[ember walrus]

i did find smth

okay they both dead

and i sadly gtg

[eternal garnet]

when you are done here, north of the bridge, ||body part||

that is not a short mission

ok bye Tanjiro

[night oracle]

Why do people hate LGBTQ so much?

[eternal garnet]

They feel insecure with their own feelings

[night oracle]

Anyways, where can I find the ||one eyed pet, the one like cuddle fish|| in this game?

I searched the mercury l, but didn't find it.

[eternal garnet]

Gold: ||deep lilypads cave. Opposite direction to the green blinky pillars. In a small dead end under a loop plant||
Blue: map

[night oracle]

Ok thank you very much.

[eternal garnet]

red x. So there are 3 spots, 2 eggs in each

[eternal garnet]

very very endgame spoiler, do not click

[eternal garnet]

It is time

[carmine bobcat]

I want to click those spoilers so badly
But I can’t

[random topaz]

THere was A CUDDLEFISH in the game!!!????????

[eternal garnet]

no, but there are pets that can walk and swim

Low graphics 😛

[night oracle]

Yea, I just realized too

[random topaz]

i accidentally did for someone else and regretted it

[random topaz]

still looks beautiful

[carmine bobcat]

[night oracle]

Not s cuddle fish but something similar

[eternal garnet]

what color is he? Yes.

Aka. RGB

[random topaz]

what if you go to phasegate facility before meeting alan

???

[eternal garnet]

it's not activated

you can still walk in and see this very alien machine

[random topaz]

shortcut to get there: die, then followe the beacon

thats what im doing

wait im accidentally in the tundra void

[night oracle]

I'm at the pilot-last known location beacon, where is it from there?
