[bold monolith]

You can't be more detailed than this. I don't know what you expect from us.

[drowsy stirrup]

It's dry cave? Or underwater?

Map is helpful, but if you don't know Greek alphabet or don't have it scanned you can't tell difference between omega and koppa

[keen schooner]

Dry

You may have to swim up after using laser cutter

[drowsy stirrup]

Then I'm super unlucky

[sacred jungle]

Theyre greek singns?

[drowsy stirrup]

Yes

Omega is Greek for sure

[sacred jungle]

My small brain cant go that far

[keen schooner]

Yea idk Greek symbols so bz did another stupid thing by not even giving a legend

[sacred jungle]

I didnt expect anything from yall. Or i didnt know what i would be expecting from yall.

[bold monolith]

Not you.

[sacred jungle]

Oh

[drowsy stirrup]

There is legend directly under the map in PDA

[sacred jungle]

Cries in dumb

[keen schooner]

You sure 😭

[drowsy stirrup]

Yes

[keen schooner]

No way I missed that

[drowsy stirrup]

Or not? Uh... It was there I swear...

Reeeee! This iceberg is driving me crazy!

How to get in that caveeeeee

Come on!

I feel like I'm swimming in circles...

[keen schooner]

Maybe you are, it could be a mean iceberg

[drowsy stirrup]

||It's iceberg near Marguerite's greenhouse? Or I got it wrong?||

[keen schooner]

They are all over the world but there is one on you're way to that place yes

[meager crescent]

is the snowfox worth using?

I've been mostly using my prawn for most things and I was wordering if I should make one

[keen schooner]

It's poop

[steel stream]

You get an achievement for it, and after a while if you get used to controls, it is kinda fun zooming around

[drowsy stirrup]

OMG

Wrong one

@keen schooner Eeeeeee!

Turned out to be different iceberg

[meager crescent]

bunnyhopping with the prawn is more fun for me

[keen schooner]

Yayy

[drowsy stirrup]

It's so beautiful inside!

[keen schooner]

Yep

[drowsy stirrup]

Thankies!

[lapis latch]

Could someone explain how I can see creepvines when there aren’t any?? Or am I just going insane??

[winter oriole]

Ghost of the past

[lapis latch]

Im going insane

[winter oriole]

Can you make more room with windows

[lapis latch]

What

[winter oriole]

I'm curious because it seems to be doing the effect on the door awell

I'm curious to see how it looks with other windows

[lapis latch]

Yeah it does it on the door too

Idk man I don’t have a base yet

I just killed a sea monkey because it stole my knife

And I also cooked a fish alive because it was biting me

[drowsy stirrup]

@deep kettle One gold and two blue

[deep kettle]

🎉

Did you already hatch them?

[drowsy stirrup]

Not yet

I just built another containment

Actually got interesting bug

[deep kettle]

Reflection bug strikes again
It probably comes down to that they made a reflection for the spot where it can land next to creepvine, but there are multiple spots.

[drowsy stirrup]

Shadows of the past

[drowsy stirrup]

All my world resources renewed

[deep kettle]

Either you haven't played for a good while or a part of your save file corrupted and it just generated new resources.

[drowsy stirrup]

I swear I collected that quartz in past and it's back

[drowsy stirrup]

Ding ding, good guess. I haven't played this save since game's release

[deep kettle]

If it's a single piece of quartz you made also have gone insane to be honest 🤣
Seems like you need to eat less peepers 😉

[deep kettle]

Not sure if they regenerated parts of the map after release though. I don't think they did but I might be wrong.

[drowsy stirrup]

Peepers belong in bioreactor

[meager crescent]

Just finished the game. It was quite the journey and I loved it.

[drowsy stirrup]

along with cuddlefish

[meager crescent]

throw those pods from the sea monkey cave vines in there

takes a while till it runs out if you got some solar panels on your roof

adding a nuclear reactor after pretty much grants you infinite energy

[drowsy stirrup]

Nice!

Congratulations

[drowsy stirrup]

But like I'm collecting ore veins once again

I am sure that I did collect them in past

Perhaps it happened when game got what the dock update?

[deep kettle]

All you said was a single piece of quartz, I can't guess an entire ore vein respawned x)

[carmine bobcat]

what are yall talking about?

[meager crescent]

I remember that I stocked up on so many ores, items and plants that I usually just crafted quest items in my base

[deep kettle]

I don't think they regenerated parts of the map with the update, but again I could be totally wrong on that 🤔

[meager crescent]

except quartz

[drowsy stirrup]

Also bridge was not extended

But was fixed

[deep kettle]

[drowsy stirrup]

[meager crescent]

I haven't used my seatruck at all throughout the playthrough

prawn 1#

[deep kettle]

Petition for moderators called "Thom" to get free Nitro from Discord to use animated emojis x)

I refuse to pay them money for those silly emojis though.

[carmine bobcat]

yes

[drowsy stirrup]

tries to imagine how ridiculous it was to get out of the ||deep lillypad|| with just grapple arms

[deep kettle]

Did you just not like it?

[meager crescent]

what's a ||deep lilypad||

[drowsy stirrup]

Will next game get cyclops size (or bigger) submarine?

[carmine bobcat]

oh no

[deep kettle]

There's no info on the gameplay for the next game.

[drowsy stirrup]

How did you finish game without knowing that?

[meager crescent]

I don't know the biome names, blind playthrough

[drowsy stirrup]

Saaad

[drowsy stirrup]

Cotton flower thingy

[meager crescent]

those mushrooms?

[drowsy stirrup]

I guess so?

[meager crescent]

I know they were used in crafting a lot

[eternal garnet]

cotton anemone place is also called deep lilypads

[drowsy stirrup]

[deep kettle]

This place.

[carmine bobcat]

i want to eat that

[meager crescent]

I don't recall the cave being difficult to go through and back up. I think I actually shredded a squid thingamajig because it was annoying and I wanted to scan it

I just used the prawn jets

[drowsy stirrup]

It would be cool place if not those ||traps||>~<

[carmine bobcat]

||traps?||

[eternal garnet]

spiky traps

[meager crescent]

I think I found an upgrade for them somewhere and equipped it before going down there

[carmine bobcat]

where ?

ive been in them caves alot but never seen any traps

[drowsy stirrup]

I counted around 4 in there

[meager crescent]

traps? I remember there was one near the ||ventgarden||

scared the crap outta me

[drowsy stirrup]

Wait, really!?

[carmine bobcat]

what?

[meager crescent]

I think so

[carmine bobcat]

what are these traps people are talking about

[deep kettle]

Those exist in there yeah.

[meager crescent]

or atleast I remember there being those tentacle thingies

[carmine bobcat]

done several playthroughs

OHH THOSE

[deep kettle]

These.

[carmine bobcat]

RIGHT

[meager crescent]

wanted to shoot a photo and swam into one

[carmine bobcat]

ive found like one

[meager crescent]

worst scare of my life

[meager crescent]

I think I actually found that by mistake while searching for ||Maida||

[drowsy stirrup]

Spooky and annoying

Is there a way to disarm them?

[carmine bobcat]

shotgun them maybe?

[meager crescent]

try drilling them

[eternal garnet]

best result was someone who said build a platform on top of it

They do not take any damage

[drowsy stirrup]

The first spike trap I ran into was in ||deep twisty bridges||

[bold monolith]

It makes sense that they are not immune to the habitat builder.

[meager crescent]

what is that, the coral mining biome?

I recall in the bridge biome there were those corals you need for chips

Always used to go there just for them

[drowsy stirrup]

Yes, just go deeeeeeeeep

[deep kettle]

If only terrain could still be altered with the builder ;(

To be fair they could do so without having to store the entire terrain data for individual saves.

[meager crescent]

if there was a squidface fish I might've also drilled it into pulp

[drowsy stirrup]

||What are all architect tech blueprints?||

[meager crescent]

wdym

[drowsy stirrup]

There is

[meager crescent]

the ||body parts||?

[drowsy stirrup]

No

[meager crescent]

I don't get what you mean

[drowsy stirrup]

||Recyclotron for example||

[bold monolith]

I don't think they saved the entire optoctrees. More like the concerned batches the same way as the CellsCache.

[deep kettle]

That's still a ton of data in more explored worlds though. Unless they only store the relevant batches I suppose, instead of everything that was loaded once.

[eternal garnet]

artifact rewards: ||ion power. recyclotron. Ender chest thing. Teleport module||

[drowsy stirrup]

||Okay, I have them all then||

[deep kettle]

The artifacts are still ony my 'most hated features list' in this game 😅

[drowsy stirrup]

Why?

[deep kettle]

Because you will never find most of them by just exploring, they are also not interesting at all. I would have preferred just finding fragments or something else for the rewards.

[drowsy stirrup]

I wander what would happen if you drop peeper into recycling machine

[meager crescent]

scan 4 artifacts

nothing

[lime grove]

i once found an artifact on accident

[drowsy stirrup]

Same

[meager crescent]

I usually found em while exploring by accident

[deep kettle]

The only one I found "my self" was in the mining site.. Which is pretty much impossible to miss once you go there 🙃

[drowsy stirrup]

I don't remember scanning obelisk though

[lime grove]

i found the one in kelp forest

[meager crescent]

doesn't alan tell you where artifacts are?

[lime grove]

he gives you some of the locations

[meager crescent]

I think it's enough for a recyclator

[drowsy stirrup]

I got that, the island one and the geologic sampler thingy

[bold monolith]

6 out of 15 to be precise.

[deep kettle]

Yeah. But that's exactly my point, all it ever does is "follow this waypoint, scan the object and get a reward". If you were to disable all waypoints you would never find most of them.

Fajr ^

[lime grove]

what about the delta one

[meager crescent]

why do you think waypoints exist

it's a key mechanic for a reason

[deep kettle]

To ruin my exploration game? 😛

What is the point in making a game to explore the world if you're just going to tell me where everything is?

[drowsy stirrup]

Meh, there are more scannables than rewards so it's likely to find them

[meager crescent]

then disable all of them and go find them yourself, them being hard to find while disabling the main way to find them kinda falls on your choices

don't complain about it tho

[deep kettle]

If I were to disable them I can't find them because the devs put them in the most absurd places.

[meager crescent]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[drowsy stirrup]

Not devs

[deep kettle]

Hm? 😄

[drowsy stirrup]

Architects did

[deep kettle]

Lol

[drowsy stirrup]

And they are known for keeping stuff off sight so it all fits them

[keen schooner]

🤨

Lol

Gonna be honest the storyline is pure dog

[deep kettle]

Hopefully you get the point I'm trying to make though. If I need a waypoint to find some object, and I'm unable to find it if disabling waypoints, then I think it's just badly placed / designed.

[carmine bobcat]

dog feces

[meager crescent]

btw there is a artifact on the way to ||maidas greenhouse||
on a glacier top iirc, got there by prawn (obviously)

[drowsy stirrup]

Also how can you miss them with such big eyeballs?

[deep kettle]

Walls 🥲

[keen schooner]

Are we having an illogical arguement

[drowsy stirrup]

||Satellite?||

[meager crescent]

yup

[deep kettle]

I'm just giving my opinion on the artifacts 🤷‍♀️

[drowsy stirrup]

I found it myself

[meager crescent]

same

[keen schooner]

I'm on your side 🤷‍♀️

[drowsy stirrup]

Most of artifact I found on my own without beacons

[meager crescent]

they're usually in big holes

[drowsy stirrup]

Look at it this way. In Subnautica you had those escape pods. It was the same mechanic

[meager crescent]

dropping down always had me anxious about crush depth

[drowsy stirrup]

You could have got them earlier by looking around but also could have just wait for the message to get hint

[meager crescent]

Yeah, escape pods were a way to make the player find new biomes and databoxes

literally the same thing as artifacts

[drowsy stirrup]

||And for example point the way to Lost River. Kinda like Ion Powerplant shows player way to Arctic Spires and Glacial Basin||

[deep kettle]

The big difference with those is that most can easily be found without a waypoint. The only reason you get those radio messages is because the developers are trying to get you to explore more of the map. You can still ignore the waypoints and find most of them by just zooming around a biome. I'm absolutely not going to find a random artifact hidden in one of the many kelp caves 🙃

[keen schooner]

A pda is not as significant as an ||alien scan thing||

[deep kettle]

And I'm not going to deny there are some artifacts you can find that way, but there are a good amount that are just in absurd spots.

[meager crescent]

with enough exploration you find artifacts while going somewhere

[carmine bobcat]

in the sky

[drowsy stirrup]

Well, I did found it once by accident

[meager crescent]

most are near significant locations or fragments

[drowsy stirrup]

I was looking for fragments

And started to follow air bubbles

[keen schooner]

I agree

||https://youtu.be/P-AWFjBONp8?si=V6ZjsRZR7CP8yWdL||

[meager crescent]

some are in absurd spots but if you go looking for them with a crumb of luck you'll find em

[drowsy stirrup]

And I was like "Wait, what...? It's here? I thought it was somewhere... Nevermind..."

[keen schooner]

Watch this it's good video

[deep kettle]

Is this the person ranting for an hour about the game? 🤣

[keen schooner]

1h 50m

Roughly

[deep kettle]

There was one of these videos I watched at some point and they had some points I agree with but the amount of salt in the video I watched was unreal haha.

[keen schooner]

Nah this guy is funny as hell

Especially at like 1h 45 or sum

[drowsy stirrup]

ranty rant rant rant rant rant

[keen schooner]

Constructive criticism is good too tho

[drowsy stirrup]

ranting intensifies

[meager crescent]

oh, someone ranting for two hours about a game? That's for sure something I would watch in my free time

[keen schooner]

Well I have lots of free time and use videos to ignore sadness

[deep kettle]

I don't think this is the video I watched, this one is much more nice about it all 😆

Mine was just an absolute one hour roast on every part of the game lol.

[meager crescent]

Hope you get better but try doing something new or take a walk out, you don't have to exist in rant video purgatory

[keen schooner]

Thanks lol, I don't watch that much rant videos, but this video was enjoyable

[deep kettle]

Maybe this was the video after all 🤔
I doesn't feel like the one I watched but I can't find it either. Whatever I guess.

Also some of these people really do not like Below Zero 🥲

[meager crescent]

After clicking through this I once again see that a person criticizing the game is referencing the cure recipe being from plants. It doesn't take many brain wrinkles to realize that's there purely as a gameplay mechanic for the scenario that would happen if the player lost the cure.

The video is really long and it not using the segment feature makes it hard to watch because the themes discussed are all over the place

[keen schooner]

Well not rlly. He first talks about the gameplay and then he talks about the story

[keen schooner]

If I remember correctly the reference about the cure being from plants has to do with changing the way the kinda broken story works so that it would still fit a certain gameplay mechanic

Gonna watch another critique video ||https://youtu.be/DLsPoJWO-e8?si=NzJTVB_ZDKMt__De||

It's only 1h

[meager crescent]

that sounds healthy

[keen schooner]

Very

[chrome cedar]

I’ve seen more that a few people bringing up that the ‘cure’ is different in BZ. First of all, in SN you had to make a hatching enzyme, and as far as I remember that wasn’t the actual cure. The cure got produced by the emperor leviathans that hatched.

Second, the fabricator uses available items to craft things, so of course it will be things from BZ that get used and not from the main game.

From a story standpoint, there is no conflict here at all.

[keen schooner]

Why won't it place bruh

[tired harbor]

The peeper is comming

[keen schooner]

Lol I think I found out why. Scanner room has such large place hitbox it reaches this bruh

This base is massive help 😭😭

I love it

I found my final design ❤️

[chrome cedar]

Yeah, I have similar issues with the seatruck dock, even though nothing is actually blocking it. Usually I can work around it.

[keen schooner]

Yea I had to move some sections around a lot of times. Scanner and control room need quite a bit of space

[bold monolith]

You should imagine the grid. The multipurpose room is a 3x1x3 piece.

[keen schooner]

The base (detailes including outdoor decoration and interior decoration not done as I don't want to waste time doing them in creative)

[deep kettle]

I'm hoping they split them up into smaller sections in the next game. I think it's safe to assume it will still have base building, but man would I love to not have these issues again 😆

[bold monolith]

🤐

[deep kettle]

[keen schooner]

What's int3

[bold monolith]

A vector.

There is no real surprise there, but basically a control room / scanner room is the same size as your multipurpose room.

[deep kettle]

I would assume these indicate how many "cells" a specific piece takes in all dimensions. The base system in Subnautica is build upon a grid, so to know what can be placed where they have boundaries to indicate that 😄

[bold monolith]

Yes. I'm missing the Seatruck dock that is an Int3(7, 1, 3) (or 3, 1, 7 depending on the orientation).

[keen schooner]

Is it 3 high or 3 wide

[bold monolith]

The middle number is the height.

[keen schooner]

Oh ok

[lapis latch]

I just explored outpost zero before getting a seaglide

[keen schooner]

💀

[lapis latch]

Before even unlocking the recipe

[keen schooner]

Bz do be like that

[lapis latch]

Outpost 0 is pretty close to the lifepod tho

[deep kettle]

In games we often use 3 axis to indicate positions. They correspond to X, Y and Z. To note in specific is that the game engine Subnautica uses the "Y" is up and not the "Z" as in the image.

[keen schooner]

Not that close tbf

[lapis latch]

My lifepod spawned 300 meters from the entrance of it

[keen schooner]

Oh ok thx

[deep kettle]

So what Ignis is saying is that the X is 7 cells long, the Y is 1 cell tall and the Z is 3 cells long.*

*this depends on the orientation of how you're building a certain base piece but that's not all that important right now.

[keen schooner]

That makes sense lol

[deep kettle]

Wait is it really only one cell tall?

[bold monolith]

Technically yes.

[deep kettle]

🤔

Did they just place colliders or something?

[bold monolith]

Yes because the antenna was exceeding the cell for instance. The faces can.

[deep kettle]

But why is it not just 3 cells tall?

[meager crescent]

What do you even do with so much space

that is crazy

cozy though

[deep kettle]

You put plants around them. The Ignis way™

[meager crescent]

yeah, plant walls are so cool

it's a pity you can't place anything on em in bz though

[keen schooner]

Well I need lots of storage, a place for giant aquarium, place for nuclear reactors and bioreactors, Dock and moon pool for obvious reasons. A little greenhouse area, bedroom, bathroom, guest room, lounge area, observatories for observing, scanner and control for obvious reasons, work station area, and so on

[meager crescent]

Have you tried combining ores together and then using the recyclator to get them when needed?

I've had half a locker worth of plasteel this way for example

which means 2 lithium and 5 titanium per slot

had a locker full of wiring kits, then a locker full of copper wire, etc.

[keen schooner]

I don't have recyclotron yet and plan to make my base b4 getting it

Also I just like decently big base filled with decoration

Since its literally the beat part of bz for me, considering the rest is kinda mid

[meager crescent]

I usually try to stick stuff in the smallest place possible while keeping it nice to look at

it's cool to see different playstyles

[chrome cedar]

Combine those and have a locker full of compasses. 😎

[meager crescent]

I actually haven't thought of that

finished the game already, too bad

[keen schooner]

Yea definitely

[chrome cedar]

Something for the next play through.

[meager crescent]

It's a pity there's no time capsules in bz

[keen schooner]

I only ever found 2 in sn

[deep kettle]

Creative said "no" to me I suppose 😆

[meager crescent]

probably won't replay it

it's way too long and not very linear for me

[keen schooner]

I played sn 3 times and I don't intend on replaying bz

[meager crescent]

subnautica games are a oneoff for me

[chrome cedar]

I try different things each time.

[keen schooner]

The first time I messed up and decided to restart

[meager crescent]

I still felt more immersed in subnautica than in bz, most likely because of the silent protag

[deep kettle]

With how the ending went I kind of understand though 😛
I don't think it would add much for Below Zero specific anyway.

[meager crescent]

there could have been time capsules left by the alterra crew tho

but that wouldnt really make sense

[chrome cedar]

That’s basically their PDAs and all the fragments left behind.

[meager crescent]

I feel like I'm trying to cram a mechanic from one game to another, it's probably better that it stayed unique to the first subnautica

the games are different sides of the same coin

[chrome cedar]

Different sides of the planet at least.

[meager crescent]

the people that were on the planet are still a thing, just in different circumstances. One group lost at see and barely surviving, one group doing their job

[deep kettle]

I feel it was a good decision. The capsules are a great idea but just stuffing them into this game 'just because Subnautica had them' is a bit meh for them in specific. Maybe it could have been done in a similar fashion but I don't think a "time capsule" would make sense.

[meager crescent]

the voice logs from Bart Torgal and the degasi crew are still something that I find fascinating

[meager crescent]

yeah

Man, I somehow thought that thermal lillies had more to them than the pda

Thought that by killing organisms with the heat it could soak up the nutrients using it's roots after the prey biodegrades combined with the photosynthesis thingy it currently does

[chrome cedar]

That could have been interesting.

[meager crescent]

yeah, because right now it just comes down to predator repellent when they could've evolved to also use it to prey on organisms that seek warmth

i found most sea glide frags in twisty lol

but tyty

Hey ive been recently searching for the prawn suit upgrade the one that makes you jump for longer

Anyone got any idea where that could be?

🙂 will be taking 5 business days to cope (yes i'm saying this in 2 chats i need people to know my despair)'\

[steel stream]

Koppa mining site, as you've been told several times. It's the only place in the whole game where you can get it

[mortal moth]

Idk where thar us

[frank igloo]

when I started playing below zero I was streaming for my friends, when I got to the part where you see ||Marguerite for the first time I AUDIBLY gasped. it was so cool that there was another person on the planet with you (sure she's been here the whole time but you never see her in the first game) || it was sooo cool. I'm not finished with the first game yet but I'm excited to see how it plays out

[tepid merlin]

Do chellis eat glow whales?

[keen schooner]

Not as far as i know

[brazen fossil]

hi

whats this for

[lime grove]

why would you ping him and the information about playtesters is in #rules

[opaque harbor]

It was during our early access period and 2.0 development period, UWE activly seeks community involvement with helping better our games. "Beta testers" if you will. That was an application for it when it was open.

[brazen fossil]

ill be keeping an eye out for another one

[brazen fossil]

im hoping to get into the game developing myself. but idk where to lurn

[hasty linden]

@zinc void tell base location plzzzz i luv the positioning of ur base bro

U go too deep?

[steel stream]

Still it shouldn't explode immediately, crush depth damage comes slowly (or at least it's not instant for 100% hp vehicle)

[drowsy stirrup]

Alright... Something is definitely wrong. It's either I am so blind or the quartz has renewed once again

Also what's the closest/best place to look lead? ||I'm near the bridge||

[bold monolith]

Then you're at the right place.

Or not, depending on the "bridge". :þ

Twisty Bridges?

[drowsy stirrup]

||Retractable one that needs to be repaired||

I used "the" for reason

I'm in west arctic

Watching jellyfishes from safe distance

[bold monolith]

Well, return to the bridges instead.

You have a few in the glacial connection as well, but not many.

[drowsy stirrup]

I see

Also what's the best place to park seatruck here?

Aka no jellyfish place

[bold monolith]

Where is here? Twisty Bridges or the West Arctic?

[drowsy stirrup]

West arctic

I have a land-sea base there

[bold monolith]

There are jellyfish everywhere really.

So probably the nearest Arctic Kelp Forest.

[drowsy stirrup]

I found one slope that is in "safe" distance

Alright alright. So just titanium titanium until I'm safe to build seatruck bay

Have anyone ever forgot the ways around own base?

[keen schooner]

Huh lol

[bold monolith]

Let's try from the beginning. Do you have the game's map from the base on the island?

[sacred jungle]

Thats important

[eternal garnet]

(Looking for the prawn boost upgrade)
It's in koppa mine, by some prawn docking things

[bold monolith]

This is Koppa.

[mortal moth]

Yeah but i cant go deeper cause i dont got enough oxygen

Just started the game

[sacred jungle]

Do you have the seatruck

[mortal moth]

I just want the jet booster

[sacred jungle]

Do you even have the prawn suit

[bold monolith]

You just started but you have the Prawn Suit.

[mortal moth]

No

[eternal garnet]

... lol

[mortal moth]

But i need the jet booster upgrade

[sacred jungle]

For what

[lime grove]

For what

[eternal garnet]

Gotta upgrade yourself first, or you will drown

[eternal garnet]

you need at least: large 02 tank.Maybe two of them. Rebreather

[bold monolith]

You don't have 200IQ if you didn't unlock the Prawn Suit first.

[eternal garnet]

your argument made no sense

You can have 2 o2 tanks, swap underwater. Just be sure you swap in air later, to refill both

THAT is a 120IQ strat

[bold monolith]

You can also upgrade whatever tank you currently have.

[carmine bobcat]

why does he only speak in audio

[mortal moth]

Dont own a keyboard

[eternal garnet]

Literally like I said, you can have two Large o2 tanks with you, one equipped, then swap when it goes empty

[carmine bobcat]

ah

[mortal moth]

Exploiting

[eternal garnet]

oh not in the least.

[bold monolith]

How much oxygen do you currently have?

To make sure you have the high capacity tank at least.

Because I don't know if that's your case.

[eternal garnet]

possibly no tank at all

[mortal moth]

Real life situation: you r 200m under water, you dont have oxygen in your oxzgen tank left. You cannot simply swap it underwater

[eternal garnet]

But you can.

[mortal moth]

How

[bold monolith]

I'm a diver and I can tell you I can do that.

[eternal garnet]

IRL you Definitely cannot go 200m down with just tanks.

[mortal moth]

Im also a diver, i cant do that

[eternal garnet]

ya even IRL you can swap tanks

Either way, you CAN in this game.

[bold monolith]

Not the 200 meters part. :þ

So, which tank do you have? You didn't answer.

[carmine bobcat]

im no expert but if its possible to do normally in the game without glitches or such its not an exploit

[bold monolith]

Also, you have to understand that the Prawn Suit jet jump upgrade is useless without a Prawn Suit.

[eternal garnet]

Correct

[sacred jungle]

I wanna do a vegan run. But idk if i want with story

[mortal moth]

please stop bullying me

[carmine bobcat]

without

[eternal garnet]

@mortal moth you make no sense to me, possibly a bad trolling attempt, so I will not reply anymore

[mortal moth]

Imma download this mod

Sorry i dont know how to make screenshotd

[bold monolith]

Again, without the Prawn Suit you won't do much.

Mod or not.

[mortal moth]

Alright einstein

How do i get the prawn suit theb

Then*

[sacred jungle]

Scan em in the mine

[mortal moth]

The copper mine?

[carmine bobcat]

windows key and prt sc (print screen button)

atleast thats one way to

[bold monolith]

The same mine you get the Jet jump upgrade from, yes. See the problem yet?

[mortal moth]

So what i need to do now

Is fill my full inventory with standart oxygen tanks

And swap them around getting down there

[carmine bobcat]

no

[mortal moth]

Yes

[bold monolith]

You need to get the rebreather and the high capacity tank to go deeper. Optionally a Seatruck.

[mortal moth]

HOw do i get these???

Dude why is there so many things i havent gotten yet

[carmine bobcat]

play the game more

[bold monolith]

Both are in Twisty Bridges. With the oxygen plant you can swim around without needing any extra tank.

[carmine bobcat]

explore and find blueprints

[mortal moth]

Ive been trying to get the jet booster upgrade for aboyt 3 days now

[carmine bobcat]

ouch, at this point google it maybe?

[bold monolith]

Yes but the Jet Jump upgrade is something you place on a Prawn Suit.

[mortal moth]

Ye but if i get it before hand

[bold monolith]

It won't help if you don't have the Prawn Suit in the first place.

[mortal moth]

Now think about it

[carmine bobcat]

get the prawn suit to use it

thats what ignis is trying to say

[mortal moth]

Okay okay

[sacred jungle]

Go to the mine prepared. Scan the prawn suits. Take the upgrade. Go back. Tadaa. 2 birds wirh 1 stone

[lime grove]

You might as well get a seatruck and more oxygen before going there and getting the upgrade and getting the prawn suit blueprint

[mortal moth]

1 trip 2 items

[sacred jungle]

Exactly

[mortal moth]

Ye,so i just gotta craft alot of oxygen tanks and then try my best to get down there. Thanks guys! If i got any more trouble imma message you guys

Cya

[sacred jungle]

Cya

Any tips for vega run? I think i head straight to outpost zero for plants and habitat builder

[eternal garnet]

I shall infiltrate your game, hide from you and spread bacon scent

[steel stream]

You can get early food and water from the bullseye shrooms (abundant around lifepod) and creepvine seed clusters

[lunar iron]

Thermal plants are so annoying to place I have to put in it the goldilocks spot for the diffrence of 70C and 248C without dying

[chrome cedar]

Yeah, the thermal difference in just a small distance is crazy.

Doesn’t stop me from trying to place as many in a hot spot as I can though. LoL

Place the outline, then back off to complete the build from a distance. And time the eruptions if you can.

[lunar iron]

Bro no one told me if I hatched an egg and released it out in the wild it transform into its normal form I nearly got bitten by a squid shark

Brooo I got even leave my base rn I released like 6 of them thinking they would like die or something

Wait omg if I release them they turn normal size and roam around the base and don’t bite me

This changes everything

[eternal garnet]

hatched squidsharks (or anything) will not attack you. Really

also in the tank, nothing attacks anything else

[lunar iron]

BRI

They don’t attack me but they attack the other creatures I put out

They have lived together in the same tank for like 30 days why do they hate each other so much

NO Crip the Cryptosuchus died from a squid shark I put out 😭😭

Do hatched creatures of the same kind attack each other if put out in the open water?

[bold monolith]

Creatures don't attack the same species in general.

[lunar iron]

Bro I can’t feed the squid shark if I have a fish on my hand this is bs

[drowsy stirrup]

Well, I wasn't in that base since I finished the game back then so... I forgot there was a few floors of multipurpose rooms

[keen schooner]

Oh ok lol

[drowsy stirrup]

Yeah hehe...

I was about to build a bioreactor... And then noticed the ladder and was "Oh, wait... Where does it go?"

And then I found two layers of multipurpose rooms... One with alien containment unit and one with bioreactor of course

Of course ACU was full of peepers for know purpose

Only thing I can say about those peepers is: Those eyeballs are so ⚡powerful⚡

[lime grove]

how good is sleeper module

[eternal garnet]

it does let you sleep, and has a picture frame and jukebox

[lime grove]

free bed

should i get a second storage module

[chrome cedar]

The more the better.

[eternal garnet]

be aware more modules (from 3rd and up) lowers your speed. The horsepower upgrade counters this slowdown. That is the only thing this upgrade does

[lime grove]

does docking module count

[eternal garnet]

yes

[lime grove]

so im gonna have 4 then

[eternal garnet]

The full nerdy graph and upgrade effects

[lime grove]

ye i seen it

bro how much titanium deposits are there in this mine

[lunar iron]

The problem isn’t even the speed it’s how to hell are you going to get anywhere with 10+ modules

[lime grove]

skill

does having 2 drill arms speed up the drilling process or is it useless

[eternal garnet]

it does!

[lime grove]

man i forgot to empty my seatruck before coming here

[drowsy stirrup]

If you're on pc you can add your own songs to playlist. Makes encounters with leviathans less scary when you can listen to your music

[lime grove]

im on ps

im out of lead for like the third time

[drowsy stirrup]

Then you just have music disc in game

[lime grove]

it does speed it up

[lime grove]

i think i got every deposit from koppa

[sudden kernel]

Alright after a few hours I managed to capture the chelicerate in the cage that I built. The previous one I built was so small he couldn’t move and he got out after 20 minutes. This one he can swim a little bit. I hope he stays in.

[lime grove]

where get horsepower

[sudden kernel]

Lily pad caves in the sea monkey nests.

[drowsy stirrup]

How!?

[next current]

Patience and effort.

[eternal garnet]

luring it with carrots

[sudden kernel]

😂

Well it wasn’t easy.

[next current]

No. They're attracted to wheat.

[eternal garnet]

minecraft

[sudden kernel]

Basically I built a cage out of tubes and had one side of the cage opened. Then basically the hard bit is knocking it in. When you use the permitter defence system on the chelicirate it will run in the opposite direction. So basically It’s like herding sheep. It can be annoying when you make it go in one direction and it just goes around the cage. I tried with one and I actually killed it from the amount of times I rammed it and electrified it. But I managed to get the 2nd one in.

[eternal garnet]

more like herding cats

[sudden kernel]

A cat that screams a lot and tries to tear your head off.😂

But yeah I’ll update you guys if it escapes. Last time I did it with the small cage it glitched through the ground. And it actually went really deep down and nearly went into the purple crystal biome.

So I guess we will see if it does it again😂

[lime grove]

what resources shoudl i get from deep lilypads

[eternal garnet]

the small mushrooms (plant some), the glowing orbs, magnetite, nickel, 2 secret eggs

[lime grove]

i foud a nickel in lilypads and the uhh plant used for acid

i got acid from another place

[sudden kernel]

I find that the lily pad biome is best for the fragments.

[eternal garnet]

deep lilypads is a different biome, aka. cotton anemone

[lime grove]

ye i got those

which one is Z13 again

[sudden kernel]

The one on the island

Below the bridge

[lime grove]

ok

free beacon

[lime grove]

i have used my brain and set up a beacon at the entrane so i wont be swimming around trying to find the exit and almost running out of power

my prawn is walkign on water, what the heck

nvm

[dusky lake]

Cuddlefish = free bacon for biomatter reactor

[lime grove]

you know there is no cuddlefish in BZ

[versed lion]

i downloaded BZ from the xbox app, do I absolutely have to sync data? cuz it takes forever, and when i was playing regular subnautica it didn't need to sync data for me to start a new save

[eternal garnet]

is perhaps your C: / system drive full?

[versed lion]

almost, it's still got 34 gigs of space. its not much but id think its enough to run the game

[eternal garnet]

yes

[versed lion]

yea thats definitely not it i just uninstalled a few games and its the same thing

[eternal garnet]

I don't know how to turn off save sync on xbox, but I suspect its possible. Check game settings in xbox

2GB is enough free space on C: to play. Although being that full will hurt an SSD badly

you said it's slow, but pic says it failed. So it fails?

Your game log may help find the cause. If you send me player.log from this folder (paste this into windows+R run box):
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero\

[versed lion]

turns out i DID have to sync my data for some reason

took a long time but It's done lol

[drowsy stirrup]

Actually that is perfect description of cat

[cloud ledge]

Yo

Anyone here

I have a question

anyone

[deep kettle]

@cloud ledge Don't just ping random people please. Just ask your question 😉

[cloud ledge]

ok sorry

so this is like a problem I’ve never had

I almost have all the fragments for everything

Expect the thing to convert Energy into oxygen

Like where is it ….

like bruh

Because I’m trying to make base

[deep kettle]

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Energy into oxygen?

I don't think there's a tool just giving you infinite oxygen for energy.

[eternal garnet]

o2 generation is built into base rooms by default

just supply power

[sudden kernel]

I don’t know of a item that does that.

Oh yeah now I understand.

[cloud ledge]

Like u connect the solar panel to it

[sudden kernel]

If you power your base you get O2

[cloud ledge]

Oh

Cuz it subnatica u need power and to make smth to convert it into oxygen

[eternal garnet]

solar, or any other method

[sudden kernel]

Also consider where the base is and what power source you use.

[eternal garnet]

No, it's the same in subnautica. At least since 2019

[cloud ledge]

Oh you guys are right

Im confused tho

Why in subnatica I need to put smth to create oxygen

[eternal garnet]

just breathe in. Then out. Repeat.

[cloud ledge]

Or maybe I’m stupid

[sudden kernel]

Do you mean why you need to create solar panels to get oxygen?

[eternal garnet]

You didn't. At least not since release. Early access was weird

power is needed yes. That's probably what you mean

[deep kettle]

The only way to get oxygen with energy is vehicles or bases, vehicles require powercells to generate oxygen and bases generate oxygen as long as they are powered. That's all there is to it 😛

[sudden kernel]

I mean since your base is underwater the air can’t reach o2 can’t reach it but power can make oxygen. If your base is above water and on land it will have oxygen regardless of if it’s powered or not.

[chrome cedar]

Bases, any power source will do.

[eternal garnet]

Then how does it give me o2 when the batteries are dead?

[deep kettle]

What does?

[eternal garnet]

vehicles

[deep kettle]

A specific one?

[eternal garnet]

I mean I think they do...

[deep kettle]

I don't think they do.

Time to put it to the test.

[sudden kernel]

I collected a bunch of eggs around the world and put them in my sea truck storage. And then I disconnected and accidently hit the storage module with my seatruck and it blew up…..💀

[deep kettle]

It definitely does @eternal garnet

I am stupid. I just realised I could have taken out the powercells.. Here I am speeding up the game driving around until they were empty 🤣

[sudden kernel]

Oh yeah you can do that😂

I had to do that so many times when I was trying to capture the leviathon

I ran out of power like 5 times lol.

[deep kettle]

Also these guys do surely know how to party on a faster speed 😆

[sudden kernel]

They are just vibing

[sudden kernel]

Damn they are built different. And not in a good way.

[dusky lake]

You can delete the data by deleting it from your xbox cloud

[keen schooner]

Bruh why is moving resources from base to base so tedious

Filled up 8 floor lockers and a few wall lockers so far

[chrome cedar]

Hoarding too early can be a pain. Compress items to take up less space if you can.

[keen schooner]

I don't have the recyclotron yet but yea I could

[chrome cedar]

Keep scanning artifacts, it’ll pop up. Leave enough uncompressed for what you need. Or just leave some stuff behind and if you get by that spot grab another load.

[keen schooner]

Alright thx 👍

[golden vine]

and a new journey begins

[eternal garnet]

[golden vine]

ive never actully finshed the story for this game cuz my old laptops couldnt handle this game but now i that i a more capable computer im dedicated to doing a first time full playthru of the game

i remeber buying this game on Early access launch with $18 worth of dimes best investment ever made

[keen schooner]

I'm not haply with bz but I am going to get all achievements and finish the game because I'm just like thst

[golden vine]

can sea monkey still steal your seaglide?

[eternal garnet]

yes. But they stop stealing early game

[eternal garnet]

watch out, so that you don't end up liking it in the process

[golden vine]

i hated that they could do that before but its been a good 2 years

[eternal garnet]

remedy: quick press of E to hide your item

related: investigate any distress calls, not far, south

North is volcano and the small moon

[golden vine]

no spoilers pls i havent play BZ since they changed the story

[eternal garnet]

yup yup. This chat most of the time, will spoiler mark spoilers || ||

[sudden kernel]

Good luck

[golden vine]

already off to a good start made it to him already

[sudden kernel]

Damn that was quick

Where you gonna build your base?

[golden vine]

depends

prolly in the lilly pad biome

i have to find the builder tool now

omg they bring you stuff

wow thats really pretty

ok so legitimate question how do you get the builder tool in this game?

[keen schooner]

Scan it

[golden vine]

is it in the sea monkey dens?

[keen schooner]

It's at a|| small reinforced platform area near enough to the lifepod. Or in koppa mines, or on a land base||

[golden vine]

you mean the one i took the beacon from .3.

[keen schooner]

If by that you mean ||delta Dock beacon|| then no its a different place

[golden vine]

no a cache

it had the meineral detector

he carry

[narrow mortar]

Does anyone have information on how much is left for subnautica 3?

[orchid oriole]

im considering to do a seatruck-only run

[golden vine]

is it even happening?

i didnt find the habitat builder at the two plat forms i found

[tacit totem]

does alen die (dont actually answer that if he does or any actual spoilers)

I love him he's so stupid

or well more accurately ignorant

[hasty linden]

8.5? do u mean 85 or 8.5?

[chrome cedar]

On the way to where the distress signal was from your drop pod, there are two separate platforms in the ||twisty bridges||. Both contain data boxes with important items. One has a small tube compartment with a broken hatch, one of the hab builders is there. You only need to scan one.

There is a directory in the game path you can add them to, not sure the path offhand, might be in the wiki.

Check the pinned posts, looks like it’s there, maybe? Steps seem vague.

[sinful blade]

is there any way to auto save the game? i forgot to save for 3 hours and i progressed so much and then i come to this

[chrome cedar]

I think there is an auto save mod, but it’s a separate install. Not part of the game.

[tacit totem]

are you meant to be able to get through the exit of the ||koppa mining site|| with your seatruck

it took some wiggling but I got through with tears streaming down my face as I did not wanna go through that maze of gizers again

[chrome cedar]

Yes, it does take some wiggling. Can’t have any modules attached though.

[tacit totem]

assumed so

asked bc if not that many people tried wiggling through the door and said nothing than I wanted to share my divine wisdom

||I just got the stuff for Alans skeleton|| and only now do I question where to.. put it together??

google is not helping

[kind knoll]

have you gotten this dialogue?

[steel stream]

There is another way through the caves with thermal vents, which allows you to maybe squeeze in one or two modules in seatruck

But as for your first question, I think seatruck is not meant to fit through the main door...

[sacred jungle]

I did it but only on hardcore because... i was a little baby and i didnt want to risk it all

[sacred jungle]

Do you have the other parts?

[tacit totem]

nah, figured i should get them all first

[tacit totem]

no

i suppose thatll direct me than

ty

[sacred jungle]

Then you dont need this. Its kinda a spoiler

[tacit totem]

i only read the first line dw

back with another question tho - Im renovating my base and i have 2 multipurpose rooms stacked on top of eachother and than 2 platforms that i placed after the fact.

to get rid of the platforms it says i have to get rid of what is attached and im pretty sure thats literally my whole base. Is there any way around this?

[sacred jungle]

nope

i learned that the hard way btw

[lyric holly]

any ideas what to build or where to build my base in my subnautica bz world?

[bold monolith]

If you want to be practical, around the center of the map. Here it's Delta Island.

Other than that, build where it pleases you the most.

[lyric holly]

I think that I will build one of my bases in fabricator caverns because this place is just beautiful

[hasty linden]

facts

[frigid thorn]

I build one in tree spires

Don't build there, just don't

The best place imo is purple vents

[lyric holly]

i know but purple vents arent the best looking biome

maybe i will build base in the entrace to crystal caves

[frigid thorn]

Eh

The vents are pretty cool

[frigid thorn]

I build a base in the crystal caves

Near the fabricator caverns

[lyric holly]

thats a cool spot

i also wanted to watch shadow leviathan from my base

[trim root]

Yeah! Crystal Caves is qn amazing spot to place a base!

[lyric holly]

Im going to build my base at the entrance to crystal caverns

wish me luck with shadow leviathan

[trim root]

I hate them

As much as I like below zero I think subnautica had it better with leviathans

[lyric holly]

the only leviathans in below zero that are actually scary are void chelicerate and shadow

but i still love subnautica and subnatuica bz the same

[trim root]

They dont scare me

Like I hate how below zero is not scary like at all

[lyric holly]

i know subnautica is scarier

[trim root]

Subnautica was better at least in this aspect

[lyric holly]

subnautica was scarier because we were playing the game first time

i remeber my first fight with repear leviathan

i was so scared

[trim root]

I dont think thats the case

[golden vine]

bruh it was sitting right next to the ||delta station|| base

worth i died for this

[sudden kernel]

Damn. Scanning a live chelicirate. Fair play.

[hasty linden]

that thing's a beak? damn i thought they were like the pincer's on a crab except times 2

[golden vine]

base buldin like a king

its a great start cuz i already have the good stuff ready and up to go

[zinc void]

Despite me removing 95% of the plants, I still have the same fps count

what is reducing my fps so hard

I get 120 fps when I look at normal direction but then 40 fps when at certain one

here I get lowest fps bruh

can reach a staggering 36 fps

[golden vine]

better images

its funny how much over rescorcing can make for a good base build once i get access to it

get rekt dum cyptosuchus

[zinc void]

I emptied most of my base and it's still low fps

biggest bug in Subnautica: Below Zero is that I can still build/deconstruct with Habitat Builder despite no battery lol

[golden vine]

your computer cant handle the settings

[versed lion]

So I just started a new playthrough of BZ last night, and I swear on my life last time I played the sea truck dock thing wasn't in the game

[zinc void]

rtx 3060

ryzen 5 5600x

like what the hell

[versed lion]

bro I dealt with Minecraft at 15 fps for months before I got a pc don't even lol

40 fps is God tier fps to me lol

[zinc void]

not for me

it's lagging for me actually

[golden vine]

[zinc void]

[versed lion]

but yea, prolly just sum with the game

[zinc void]

Way to go Subnautica: Below Zero

[golden vine]

sounds like you over did your base and now its laggin out

thats why i dont go over board with bases i just make one and thats the base i use till i get the mobile one aka seatruck

[versed lion]

Even then I still use my stationary base

I actually got my seatruck and two modules before I built any habitat

I did build the seatruck dock tho

[golden vine]

i want to make one of thoes

[versed lion]

nothing more than that tho cuz I'm waiting till I get the large room

[golden vine]

and also collect all the music

[versed lion]

I forgot abt the music/jukebox lol

[golden vine]

its there like 25 tracks to find

and some of their are really hard to find

[zinc void]

Gonna build my huge storage here

[golden vine]

[trim root]

What can you possibly need so much storage for?

[deep kettle]

Yes.

[keen schooner]

Lol

I need that much storage and I'm like halfway through the game

[deep kettle]

If you're making big bases or outposts sure, but you will never need that many resources in an entire playthrough xD

[keen schooner]

Yea definitely. Its unnecessary but fun ig

[zinc void]

😉

Gonna make this room beautiful later

[deep kettle]

@river skiff there's a bay area with a staircase which you can use to enter the land. There's absolutely no need to randomly climb on ice or whatever 😛

[river skiff]

oh

idk where it is

ill prob find out later in the story

[deep kettle]

It looks something like this.

But basically, if you can't easily get up somewhere then you're not supposed to go there 😛

[river skiff]

isnt that the island u go to to see margeret and to destroy the sattellite thing

[deep kettle]

No.

[river skiff]

aw man i remember there were caves under the island tht took me so long to navigate through

ima have to do tht all over again

[deep kettle]

It still exists but that's not the place in the screenshot.

[river skiff]

ill find it eventually

ive always wondered wht tht hole is in the middle of the map

also there are very little hostile leviathans

[river skiff]

i wonder if its just a random void

[deep kettle]

I'm pretty sure the map they use on that website is outdated. It's supposed to look like this I believe.

It's mostly correct but not entirely.

I don't like the website either way, full of ads / premium features 🙃

[river skiff]

is there an underground biome like ilz but in below zero

[river skiff]

ya

honestly i feel like bz is missing so much

[deep kettle]

There are underground biomes yeah. Not the same as in the first game though.

[river skiff]

i mean like lost river

lava zone inactive lava zone

i alr know abt the lily thingy

[deep kettle]

There are similar ideas to those yeah.

Just not the same look / purpose.

[river skiff]

alr

thxx

[rotund crypt]

I just saw a spike trap completely devour a sea monkey

I didnt know it did that

[bold monolith]

Well, at some point they were eating a squidshark the same way.

[vapid kestrel]

It’s just an area that is inaccessible

[lime grove]

what should i do with 21 uraninite

[potent mirage]

yup yup. This chat most of the time, will spoiler mark spoilers || ||

[keen schooner]

A bunch of reactor rods 💪

[lime grove]

i didnt build a reactor

[keen schooner]

Build one 💪

[lime grove]

i dont have water

[deep kettle]

You're welcome.

[keen schooner]

Open your eyes

[lime grove]

drinkable water i dont have

[keen schooner]

Boom! Water!

[deep kettle]

[lime grove]

my bioreactor doesnt have enough energy for water machine

[keen schooner]

Water filtration suit, bladderfish, bottle in chests, Water filtration machine, plants

[chrome cedar]

Yup

[keen schooner]

Make 2 bioreactor 🗿

[chrome cedar]

Thermal is your best bet, solar can power one if you have enough panels.

Problem with bio is you need to keep feeding it.

[lime grove]

gel sack

[keen schooner]

Using batteries to power your base 💪🗿

[atomic horizon]

plenty of salt in kelp/grassy and infinite tube coral for bleach

[lime grove]

what

wrong game buddy

[keen schooner]

💀

Rekt ×100

[lime grove]

i fixed my water issue

[keen schooner]

Now you could try fix your skill issue

[lime grove]

what skill issue

should i take my prawn to the arctic spires

[eternal garnet]

that works

[lime grove]

i mean i did it once without a prawn with just a flare and few thermoses

[eternal garnet]

the pepper fruit also work, and they grow in some caves

[amber blaze]

The what fruit

[lime grove]

does the full cold suit and flare equal to like 90% resistance

[eternal garnet]

fevered pepper. pink fruit, blue plant

[amber blaze]

Oh

[eternal garnet]

I have no numbers but it feels like 95%

note that the prawn heats you up. The bike too

[lime grove]

flare gives 10% and full suit gives like 80%

[tacit totem]

flares actually have a use? i throw mine out lol

[eternal garnet]

the doggos are terrified of a held flare

also they heat a little

[tacit totem]

what r the dogs u speak

[eternal garnet]

snow stalkers

[tacit totem]

ahh

i just pull my overalls up to my chest and brave it like i have no life to be concerned about

[lime grove]

you can hold it out to both gain cold resistance and be proteced from snow stalkers

[steel stream]

Also throw a flare on a spot where you want to pilot pengi-bot to be safe from snow stalkers (alternatively, build a small temporary base, I compartment and hatch is enough, and you will also stay warm)

[tacit totem]

how long normally does it take for Alan to give cords to the artifacts? just got the one ||In the dormant volcano|| and since i had no other story stuff to do once i got home I've just been renovating and as great as that is, its been awhile without news from the ||little man inside my head||

[lime grove]

go explore

he gives a few signals and 1 of them leads somewhere more important and gives hints for others

[tacit totem]

ohh so exploring triggers his signals? its not a time based thing

[lime grove]

exploring doesnt trigger signals but it helps you progress much more than sitting and doing nothing while waiting for signals

[bold monolith]

They are time based you're right, but often time based after a specific action.

He gives 6 signals for the artifacts, there are 15 on the map, and you unlock the last technology at 10.

[steel stream]

Also, you can try to find all Alterra bases marked on the map in delta station (which you can scan and store in your pda)

[lime grove]

im going to kill a snow stalker

[steel stream]

Just for info, you won't get fur by killing it...

[keen schooner]

Fr

[lime grove]

i know

but it killed me when i was controlling my pengling

[keen schooner]

Lol

[lunar iron]

Snow stalkers are like 4 hits with a knife

[steel stream]

Click on the link

[lime grove]

i did throw it

then it went somewhere else

and i had no titanium nor quartz

[steel stream]

Make sure you stand on the flare before you start using the remote

[lime grove]

the flare went inside textures or somewhere else

[steel stream]

If it rolls elsewhere, pick it up and try again

[lime grove]

literally disappeared

[steel stream]

Use another

[lime grove]

didnt have one

i carry one cause i dont see a use for 2

[sacred jungle]

Same happened to me once

[sacred jungle]

I have like 8 solar pannels and a bioreactor

[chrome cedar]

Should be good

[keen schooner]

Does the shark squid thing put your vehicle power to 0 when it attacks

[broken badge]

I believe so

It comes back after a few seconds, the power does for your vehicle

[azure ginkgo]

Where should i build my base

[azure ginkgo]

I hate that

When it drains my power

[broken badge]

Build wherever is convenient or that you like
My initial base is in twisty bridges near the shark cage, if you know where that is. Some like to build central so near delta, but the shark cage is close, but far enough away from the cryptos which annoy me lol. But there’s plenty of options

Later on I build on top of the submerged rocks in lilypads

[azure ginkgo]

Oke

Ty

[azure ginkgo]

I still have my base at my droppod

[chrome cedar]

It’s a good spot for an initial base, but I wouldn’t put a lot of work into it at that spot.

[keen schooner]

Why are there 3 damn brute sharks attacking me

I've too much copper almost full floor locker of copper wire

And I've not enough lead

Nowhere near a satisfactory amount

[next current]

That's the Below Zero experience!

[keen schooner]

I need it for a bunch of enamelled glass. A nuclear reactor, some other things like foundation

[next current]

The Twisty Bridges and the Thermal Spires are probably your best bet.

[keen schooner]

Oh alr ill try thermal spires for more, I've been in bridges for a while

Btw what modules do yall use for prawn. I currently have the jump jet, depth ofc, thermal reactor, and grapple and drill arm. I've a slot free and idk anything else to put in so I'm guessing storage module

[next current]

I always use two Storage Modules instead of a Thermal Reactor.

[keen schooner]

Ah ok

I just made it cuz why not

[next current]

Don't get me wrong. The Thermal Reactor Module is great. It's just that the end game biomes are not as focused on heat ad SN's endgame biomes were.

[drowsy stirrup]

Just dump song and folders with songs in certain folder that game will generate in C:/Users/<username>/Music. That for Windows

[next current]

But I-

[drowsy stirrup]

I didn't see that

[next current]

Nah it's fine.

[hasty flower]

You would advise me to make my base where and in which biomes?

[sudden kernel]

Alright for the update of holding the checiclirate in a cage. Well. He escaped😂 however I believe that I can hold him. He managed to slip between a crack in the cage but I can fill it in. The only reason the cage had gaps is because I’m on hardcore so I still have to grind materials.

[hasty flower]

Where?

[tacit thorn]

two corridors gap horizontally and three corridors vertically is the minimum cage holes I think.

[chrome cedar]

Definitely two storage modules. Jump module, depth, drill arm. Take the thermal out and put it in the prawn storage. Swap with the jump upgrade when you need to power up the battery and stand on a hot spot for a bit.

[hasty flower]

Why nobody doesn't care about my question ?

[eternal garnet]

Anywhere near Delta island is not a mistake. Nice and central

[hasty flower]

Where ?

[keen schooner]

Oh good idea

[eternal garnet]

center of that map, gray. The only real island

[keen schooner]

Anywhere near Delta island is not a mistake. Nice and central

[eternal garnet]

But near it, any side you like

[keen schooner]

👍

You want starter base? Tree spires has no hostile creatures and has tons of resources 👍

[eternal garnet]

"no hostile creatures" lol

Leave plenty of room to grow also

[hasty flower]

For good view ?

[keen schooner]

Only ||2 leviathan class creatures ||

[keen schooner]

Trees spires has tons of view ofc

[hasty flower]

Thanks

What 8s the purple thing ?

[keen schooner]

Glacial basin underwater if I read correctly

[eternal garnet]

it say glacial basin underwater. No room to build there

[hasty flower]

what is the description of the biome ?

[wind pilot]

Dangerous weather approaching that's all I hear.

[hasty flower]

😂

[neon idol]

all the shadow leviathans in my game are dead

[hasty flower]

How ?

[neon idol]

they killed me too many times so i went in with my prawn suit and killed them all

[hasty flower]

😂

[neon idol]

used my drill arm and something else idk

it was so funny i was chasing them through the caverns

[wind pilot]

Sell it for a $4000.
