I think the lobster didnt like it...
i have no idea where i should go now
is the artifact down there?
how am i supposed to get there
it's inside koppa mine. Brown on the map
There's a door at 150m, but you can also enter via two different thermal vent tunnels
so get compass
found it
that took a while
why
im commiting mass murder
I recommend you dont
Btw whats going on there
Bru
the up side of playing on epic games is that i can use console commands without worrying about achievements
why is it so cheap
I cant even control commandd cuz im on ps4
Yeah right. Its all so ez to find
Even if i could. Its a pain in the @€!% (not nice word) to type it
If i accidently click it away
All my typing work is gonE
A plant that grows in spiral form
A plant that grows in spiral form
wow so helpful
Ok so
Ok, it's a plant that you need to make syntethic fibers...any more help?
no lke where to find it !
Do you know the || biiiig transparent jellyfish || like animal
nuh uh
Well you didn't ask that earlier, you literally asked what is it, not where
thought that was obvious!
Two locations ||tree spires or purple vents caves||
tree spires: directly south of delta
Actually there's also third option to get it: ||since the game offers ready-made syntethic fibers to find, so you can put it in recyclotron and get spiral plant clipping to plant...same for youg cotton anemones via sulfuric acid you can find||
where are the ready made
If I remember correctly ||phi excavation site, a little distance from phi robotics||
ok where did the lithium go
i came to the delta island for it and there is not a single one
Look around the island, on the easter/northern side
I enjoy complaining
Truck is super handy with the modules if you need to fabricate on the go and haul resources back to your base. And you can take your prawn along too.
you say?
Truck doesn’t get enough love because it’s too underpowered.
so basically cyclops but 10x worse
I love the Seatruck
It will go where a cyclops wouldn’t fit.
it does hit like a truck
i have commit mass genocide on cryptosuchus with it
for some reason it 2 taps them
1 tap
3 hours in
Maybe change name to i hate cryptosuchus
good idea
Flex🔥🔥🔥🔥
You dont need to
oh but i do
If the Devs would go back and add a separate thruster module, it would totally get a new reputation. I envision a module with two engines on each side, on the inside a spot for 3 power cells (like the Cyclops) on each side, and more storage above the cells. Maybe a thermal module add on as well…
I wanna do vegan run but with story or not
Idk
Do i WANT to?
I just want a cool base with some plants
Maybe multiple to make it look like im researching plants
Nice
I think the Seatruck is fine, but the storage module doesn't have enough slots even if it was buffed during development (it had even less slots). And the teleportation module on 10 artifacts is too many. Most people don't unlock it.
Wanna see my 3d print of a ghost leviathan (it looks weird because of all the support. I will take it off soon)
sure
Teleport module would have been better if you could pick the destination, and then have multiple.
cute cat though
I didn't unlock it in my first playthrough
Ty
And I'm not sure if I ever will cause I refuse to go to artifact PK8
I think you technically can have multiple destinations (multiple seatruck cabin+teleportation module combo), but you cannot choose the destination, you go to the nearest one, so not very useful
Spooky monsters
which one is pk8? i don't remember all their names
It should at least cycle I agree.
The one in thr inactive vulcano right?
||Caldera||
oh ok
Whats thinking
BUT NOPE they didnt
It goes to the oldest powered module. So you have to decide in advance where you want to wind up.
I don't think it would be overpowered to just cycle between them, it would at least make the module more interesting.
Maybe select to which one you wanna go
maybe like the mineral detector
Oh, it works like that? I thought it's the closest one...but main point, since you cannot choose the destination when teleporting, not much sense building more than one (if even that)
where you cycle through a list and then choose
What you can do is use it once, detach it from the Seatruck and reuse it.
If they did add some functionality to make teleport better, that’s just one more I’d be hauling (6+ most of the time), so overall engine power would still need improved to be worthwhile.
If you get to close it might sting you
you have to get really close though. like rubbing up against their tentacles
Note that this doesn't work in creative due to the absence of required power source.
Making a second is totally useless.
I let your ghost slip by, that one I can't.
||doesn't that lead to the artifact past the hydraulic bridge or is that something else?||
i hate when this happens
not quite
can i use the prawn suit drill arm to get through?
Follow it west until it drops deep, then surface. The dock here is important. the ice door is not
No, it's an exit / shortcut
go to the dock instead, south-west
west?
Understandable
you mean this deep drop?
west is left on the map, if that's what you're confused about
It aint that deep
I meant follow the cable
i made it on the surface
North is always up on maps, unless specified otherwise
If you walk west a little bit, you get a beacon for this
north is up west is left
from that you can figure out the rest
i always confuse west and east
But which way is starboard? Nobody knows.
Right
sigh
Its so easy to make
no the point being is i have to go back
also i dont think i have enough gel sacks
Yeah thats the worse part
no no. That doesn't matter. Go there later. For now explore south and west
gel sacks you can grow
nuh uh
Have any of you seen those cardboard paper mache(?) sea animals that people are making on TikTok and putting them on their walls
If i take a creepvine sample and plant it will it grow creepvine seedclustera
I dont
Lemme get a pic
no, it will never make seeds for some reason. Plant a seed
thats so funny
So, you have a major hint there
okay i have 2 gel sacks
plant them, then immediately knife them
i meant the artifact
This is made out of paper and cardboard
that looks cool
I’m making that but a peeper
i dont have a growbed unlocked
I wanted to make it life sized but after research found that it’s eye is bigger than the averages persons head
normal or arctic?
that's massive
one location: South-west corner of twisty biome. High up.
Gotta work on that. 😎
i got my gel sacks from a late game area i don't think i was meant to be at yet
how deep
25?
That’s the exterior one. Interior is at ||Zero.||
I meant the ones in twisty
i got them around 350
gel sacks need external beds
huh
Wait the seedclusters are plantable
?
Yup
yes
seeds usually are...
Are you really sure?
yes.
Cuz
why did you think they were called "seed clusters"
Both games…
NAAAB
Normal
The weird thing here is how a leaf will grow, but never make seeds
so if this is delta
I know 😭
Yall are lying
that's koppa and delta
Late game stuff
||outpost Zero||
can someone enlighten me
spoilers probably
But yall are lying. You telling me i didnt know i could plant seed clusters in BOTH GAMED???
yeah
There's a huge clue in the name
isnt that the location you start in the early access
Oh sweetie 😭
that's it!
It feels like i just realised i could walk
Ik perspective but it’s still huge
I swear i tried it ince but it didnt work
It seems so much smaller in game
can't they fit in your hand? but then their eye is huge
It's cause of subnautica's weird comaera
and you player's massive hands
They can but it’s still pretty big next to the hand and than there’s camera warp
your*
yu can't tell how close hat peeper is
i has found land
Tomorrow i send a picture of planted seed clusters
what a pic.
YEA THAT TOO 😭 look at Riley’s hands in the pic bro
Good luck
riley?
his hands are the size of his head 💀
this is bz
the duck is that
spy pengling cave
Ik but I sent a pic and it had his in-game model in it
spoilers!
ah
how is it story related
i would love if this weather stopped
mb
Dw dw
i cant see anything
find a nearby door
alright i just had to complain
Literally half of ||Sam's storyline|| is about it
i think thy are in west arctic and not in glacial
new players dont know that so why should you say it?
just put the thing in the spoiler bars
i has found a cave
Just visited maida marguerit’s base, what should i do next
This means you missed a base
Did you scan the box
||disable the radio tower like she told you||
the snow storm is back : (
don't miss a truck upgrade on the floor. Do her task
Did it
Which one ?
then go where she told you to go
peri defense
||go back to her base, she'll tell you directions on where to meet her||
Did || you go to her greenhouse ||
||I go in her base in the cave after disabling the tower||
finally a day
Do the next thing on your to do list...check if you have signals to explore or clues in your pda or alterra bases you haven't visited...
she wasn't there, if done right. She sends a radio message with an invite.
||did you answer the call after you done what she asked you to do||
Ah
Yes i needed to push T
To answer
then you should know where to go
Im gonna sleep bye
good night
Yes i did this
she says 1km, it is really ||1130m east of delta beacon||
i hate the hog
So unclear, did you do greenhouse or not
you're prob gonna dream about subnautica now
The house on the iceberg ?
yes
Yes did it
you call it home, that's the confusion. That is her greenhouse.
so many spoiler bars i want to click but i can't
Sry
Then what do i do next
ok now, Note that you got a (very OP) salad recipe that you can grow indoors. ||The greenhouse finishes Marges storyline, but it ties into Sam's. Now you can scan stuff in marges kitchen and bathroom, and there's a PDA with her reaper story.
Go find and optionally cure the frozen leviathan. Phi map: the radio mast in the west. Find the PDA in the blue rubble of the explosion next to a buried forklift, with the audio||
wrong message i think
incredibly good food, that
or you're torturing me intentionally
So i will find the places with the pda ?
why no memes chat?
oh
I don't think you missed the 2 (3?) PDAs inside
im blind
Idk, what are the names ?
it talks about a creature excavation
what was i supposed to find there
there is literally nothing but ice bergs
i have been bambozleed
where? Did you get a beacon Phi landing pad?
nopee
south west of the twisty bridges
I said that to point to the dock, which you found
I dunno where you are. From the dock, walk west
I remember finding most story parts before I was supposed so I had to piece it together near the end of my playthrough.
Glad to see other's bumping into stuff the intended way
i have no idea what they're talking about but i feel like i definitely should
twisty bridges?
icebergs?
phi?
oohh the coral bridges
okay sorry :(
do they twist?
they're not bridges so i got confused :(
well if you remove the water they would be
but the water's there
Magic
some other biome names: purple vents. Thermal spires (where Delta island sits)
there's a lilypads biome
prob. havent found that yet
i get the lily pads and spires, bc they have lily pads and spires
but there's no bridges in the twisty bridges
very twisty though
k. More: tree spires, west arctic (underwater)
Yes there is, the coral is like a bridge
Kelp forest
true
Glacial basin, vent garden area, and some others
official name of "land" is Glacial basin, except the glacial bay where the bridge is, and doesnt include north of there
vent garden area is "tree spires"
it was completely redone for the new story. It was even bigger originally
i remember watching a youtuber play the early access where many things were different
i've never been there (i think) so i don't know how big it is now
Jefov
unless it's all the land?
ye ik that
arctic spires is also land. And delta of course
but other than delta and spires, it's all the glacial basin?
no, all of it is called Zero something
oh ok
sector zero sounds awesome
is there any way to tell what the biomes are actually called by just playing the game?
like does it say any biome names in the pda entries?
not sure, not often. But the F1 screen has it
ok
i swear i found gel sacks here
And they are on many maps. Just not the ingame map
in the twisty bridges
there's an ingame map?
yes, real deep. below 300m
There's two, on the walls in two bases. Scan them and they go into PDA. Not interactive maps tho
ok
the maps are enough for me to navigate
chec if you have one, Logs / maps
k ill check
alright found em
from your base? Yes.
there are multiple lifepod spawn locations, so it might be different but i believe it's north east?
not sure though
I meant a built base, but maybe not
From pod, go west, then north west. if you find the cable again, follow it until it goes deep. Surface there
is there more than one bridge island or is it just the one
bc i don't remember it going deep before the island
theres one bridge. I don't call this islands, I call it land
sorry
Delta is the island
i think i just got there from a complete wrong angle
maybe i'm just remembering wrong though and there was a drop off when i got there
found it finally
thats not good...
You aren't meant to cross the bridge just yet. But you can, I suppose
it doesn't break stuff. Only you
im sorry but what
i crossed the bridge immediately, was i not supposed to do that?
anyway enough subnautica for today
I mean, story isn't linear, so it's fine
the purpose though of the bridge is to make you come back later, and go towards the research base west, first
i didn't even know there was something there
the spire that looks like a smaller delta tower?
or is there another one
there's a radio mast, that's just the dock
again, walk west from there and you get a beacon to a thing
oh ok
i didn't go west at all
i just crossed the bridge and went northeast when alan told me to
did you find the thing he hinted at?
yes. There are more things like a lot of ion cubes (for drill), pet eggs
there's 4 stacks there in total
maybe later

Today I learned: You can hold LMB(RMB) to have prawn automatically collect multiple items. No need clicking every one.
"There must be a good reason for all these safety labels on the floor..."
ah, right, because there is no water to catch you.
normally, you can't build that there. As you know
yes.
But slight cheating makes it looks nice.
not at all. see the glass connector? theres a door installed
oh, smart
surprised the moon pool's fake water surface is disabled
the door's open though 🥶
Does below zero have an actual ending or nah?
there is an animated end scene, yes
maybe it was meant to be this way?
But you can't build it out of water, so why have this logic
Maybe the mod fixed this
maybe it was meant to be buildable out of water, but devs decided to disable that. without removing the water thingy
Did anyone else think that ||Alan was going to turn on you after constructing his body|| near the end of the game?
first time, yes, I thought he might
me2
The dialog there was changed a couple times
where can i apply for job at unknown worlds
Of course he wasn't always all friendly (Old story)
These voice lines are in that music track
he mad
i can be the ideas guy at unknown worlds
you heard it maybe, wondering when he says those things
my brain is always full of ideas
can you build moonpools on land?
technically no
not without mods
||He is an alien.||
id like him to be a bit more "dangerous" like
cause i mean
only with mod build restrictions override. they do work correctly tho
like what do you expect from ||an alien||
to be nice? no
and ||alan|| was a pretty chill dude
Well he did want her to|| make him a body||
that isnt scary
||he just wanted her to get him the body||
i mean when i first heard the voice
i thought something is going to happen
and no it was just an information about how ||we dont have much time to construct his body||
i mean if i was an alien id call my squad to get my data out of there and destroy that planet
except his buddies were dead
ngl some more action would be cool
i'd really like the bz story to continue in another sn in future
Deeper Below Zero - now even colder
||i mean showing the architect's world isnt just gonna be here for the "show" i hope||
Still featuring crash fish
extra cold bz🤙🏼🤙🏼
Below Zero - Kelvin Edition
yes but deeper below zero would be honestly cool
also bigger
just idk make a whole planet

hmm, a subnautica that's fully below water
basically never going to the surface, ever
that would be something
Supernautica - in space!
that sounds uninteresting
How so?
bases, vehicles
infinite o2 glitch!!!!!1!1!1!!!1!1
strange fish you put your head in to breathe
islands are used widely in the games to provide worldbuilding
absurd
islands arent strictly necessary
^^
There was a fan idea that I like: you spawn very, very deep and have to craft and ascend to escape
eh, maybe
man, community should be hired at unknown worlds, like the guys who made whole fan arts of next subnautica game in UE5
they should be hired
i heard that sn team is pretty small
like 60 ppl or something?
yes
Does alan tell you when you should go find the second body part or does he like give that tip because ive only gotten the tip
I don't think so, people can have nice ideas but it's not an easy "you modded our game, let's hire you instantly".
he gives you a couple of beacons iirc
When does he give the beacon
im not saying that its easy and all but these ppl got skill to do it in the right way and could provide more ideas for a better game
well but there comes the money
and budget
modding has been a big part of the videogame industry.
For example the tons of mods for games made by valve that have transcended their mod selves and the teams went on to create whole original games.
Such as: Natural Selection 2, Counter Strike, The Stanley Parable, and a lot more
not very rare
Look at assetto corsa, the game is alive only because modders keep it alive and keep making it better and better even after devs finished their game
it's just awesone
no you are missing my point. Community has had a big more direct impact via feedback and the EA process
Oh, sorry then. The feedback system they created is awesome
and lots of stuff you see were community suggestions. Not sure which ones. Cyclops I think
One of the best I've seen honestly
When does alan tell me where the second body cache is
Unknown Worlds has got to be my favorite indie studio honestly. It's great to see developers interact with the community like this
Simple: never
oh, I thought you meant artifacts
Dang i guess i have to get a tutorial
Yeah i didnt really think about what i was typing
You get hints, not beacons or direct stuff like that. He does yell if you get near tho
near as in 50m
He told me sum about land and spires that stretch to the sky i think but i have no clue where it is
I could give subtle hints but they are pretty easy to come by
yes, that's an important one. I'll clarify a bit if you want, ||North of the bridge||
Idk where that is
have you been to the island with the bridge yet?
(not an island, in my opinion)
no
then explore
explore more
What's goin in gamers?
Yeah but idk where it starts except for the radio tower area
hasn't found the land part I expect
lol
Explore more in this direction, you click if you want: ||west||
Oky
dont click for hint ||big cable is near land||
Theres no crazy leviathans there right?
Eh im not too scared of any chelis or stuff except for the void
chelis are cool
Yeah
have you been deep?
I was fighting one but he just ran
yea they scared fr
Ive been in the crystal place but not the red one
okay
you should explore land when you find it
it's really cool up there, remember to bring something to warm you up a bit
What warms me?
I only know abt flares
any vehicle at all, open water, caves, steam vents, coffee, fevered pepper fruit, eventually a new suit
coffee, flares give -10% to temperature loss i think and the pepper fruit
How many hours into the game would u usually go to the land ur talkjng about?
Flares have another very important use, so bring and use it to scare something off
pretty early
10-20h
A little more specific?
depends on player tbh
no. it's not important what order you do things
and how you wanna play the game
This game expects you to explore every new area
cause there is main story and also some side quests like in a lot of games which some are not required to complete it but still really cool to do
I lost a storage module early in the game then i lost a aquarium one where i am
no biggie. But do save often
Is the horsepower upgrade worth all the time it takes?
tbh yes
I mean the boost
it does only one thing: it reduces the speed loss from using more than 2 modules
yes
boost is nice. It always adds 4 meters per second, for about 5 seconds
Is there any other hints that tell me that im getting close to the land at west?
Start from about delta. if you hit a big ice wall, go north
Dock at an antenna tower
Yo
Suddenly alan tells me “i am licking up a signature from my people i will share its location”
Is that the land?
no, that's another artifact
Again?????
you get 6 of those I think, but there are 15 artifacts in the map
Not counting body parts
their real purpose is to have you explore around that area
oh, and give you rewards
I also found a LONNGG alien tube
ah the cable. follow that until it drops deep. go up, there
that's the dock nearby
So i follow it until it stops then go up?
no, until it drops deep
where it goes is not important, for some reason
I am out, good luck
See ya
Where can I find kyanite and nickel?
And how much of both materials do I need total to get everything with those ?
idk about kyanite but you can get nickel in the pathways to ||margs' seabase|| tho its hard to spot and not super abundant
im sure theres like 400 2 year old videos that tell you where to find it and walk you there
thats like the only way ive been making progress personally 🙏
I know the map pretty well I just need the biome
well you enter through the place you get the little clipping things at
i forgot the name lemme look it up
spiral plant clippings
||vent garden|| (you find it inside a living.. creature? idk if its a plant or animal but its alive
Ohhh
by the foot of one theres a bunch of cracks but itd be hard to tell you which specific one
no no the entrance to ||margs base|| is near one
Oh alr thanks
and than theres a hole on the ceiling in the cave youll be in, and than go through that there will be a bunch of sea monkeys and nickel on the walls
also really good stuff in their nests
make sure to follow a walk through for the first bit of getting to the area ||margs base|| is at. its a wee bit of a maze bc theres lots of forks in the roads
Last question where in the hell are water filtration fragments? In Subnautica they were easy to find but in below zero I havent found a single one
really? i got a lot
So im at this phi robotics center with my fully upgraded prawn and i just slingshotted myself across the bridge, is this a massive time skip or is it fine?
Where are they located?
It's fine
It's nothing big
honestly just scour twisty, purple vents, and lilly pad area
uhh did you trigger the story?
But its weird that you got a fully upgraded prawn suit before the fluid
Wdym
like did ||al|| say how he senses sm important across the bridge
and than once you got across it he said he sensed mean creatures
Yeah
ok than yea it doesnt matter that you didnt activate it
I hate the Lilli pad area I honestly want to exterminate and make the "squids" to go extinct
Does the worm kick me out of my prawn because those worms are the only things im scared of
And shadows
No
i didnt know if that part of the story was activated by passing a line or the specific action of fixing the bridge and THAN passing a line
They just damage you
Ok
it does a bit of damage but you should be real chill
Time to face my fears
i have yet to be attacked by anything other than the shrimp
I'm pretty sure the lines play when you touch the bridge controls
good luck
Fr?
Also here's my shrimp friend
by line i meant metaphorical line in the world that you walk over that TRIGGERS the words and stuff
He's near my base and hes a bugger
yea. I've went directly up to a few enemies and left unscathed
unless you count the worm
imagine building anywhere that isnt the drop-pod area
Bro I got the most beautiful view Atleast
High risk high reward
yea the veiw is sorta dooky bc the fog
but i dont wanna bother with lack of immediate fish and outcrops
uhh what console r u on
Pc
My base is near nickel uranite lead silver and there's like a bunch of fish under my base
wheres your base
ahh deep blue abyss i know exactly where that is
Between the chelicerate biome and the big whales one
Lmao
ahh that is a pretty good place
I wish there were more ||marg|| lines
I love her character
Also not to hate but I prefer the old pda
I get that we are using a storm works that isn't made by alterra but I would love if the old pda voice was used
The new one has too much personality considering it supposed to be an ai
i do too
like i really wish she played a bigger part in the story. when she was ||giving sam a pep talk|| was so heart warming and cute
Yup she has so much impavt on the story yet she doesn't have many lines
yea i understand. I dont see how it has more personality tho. LIke for example the old one would say "detecting multiple leviathan class life forms in the region. are you certain whatever your doing is worth it?" but the current one just says you might be in danger or sm along those lines
The accent is giving the pda a lot of personality
An ai should not have an accent tbh
OHH yea definitely
i mean siri has an accent
more so you can choose to give it one
maybe robin wanted her pda to have an accent lol
but personally i dont really like it either
Actually why is our pda a storm works
? huh
I get that she doesn't want to do anything with alterra but what is s storm works
When you open your pda on the left
It says storm works it's a bit scratched but it's there
ohh
probably so altera couldnt track us
or charge us 1 trillion credits like with riley
Yea but what is a storm works and who made it?
im sure its just some dupe or something
Maybe robin made it herself
not something to think too har about
thatd be sick
How i play subnautica below zero: find big fish-scared of big fish-run from big fish- get traumatized-fight big fish by continuously hitting it with a truck
And then give up
Vehicular fish slaughter
Her Legacy PDA?
Where is the horsepower upgrade
?
ill enter a boss battle and just keep walking in a game thats mainly about fighting bc i dont feel like it
Fragments are in Sea Monkey Nests within the Lilypad Crevice
Howdy gamers
The "motorbike" is useless it's only useful for land and there's not much of it
Like imagine an ai vehicle that used ai to be automatically and remotely controlled it uses a special technology that is able to make it invisible it has infinite range because it uses an alterra satellite
It consumed a lot of its battery tho making it very hard to maintain but balancing It so it's not overpowered
Invisibility would trivialize the game even more than the cyclops does
Its only invisible to big fishes
And it can only go invisible while no one is inside because you would become a fried piece of human
That is certainly, one of the ideas of all time
Much better than the motorbike
Certainly
I wish the seatruck had extended couplings, something like a modern electric train.
Because rn, it’s painful to get through tight gaps with it. Lil spoil: ||granted, we got the tether module& tool, but it’s still something||
Ah, nevermind. It’s a useless idea because the docks design.
Something like the rubber accordion flex bits like a metro train might have would have been ideal to give it small amount of flex.
I don’t recall the PDA saying Storm Works. In BZ her PDA is branded as Xenoworx. Alterra bought that company before events in SN per the Wiki, Robin is using an older (borrowed) model.
Tbh, I kinda need a new beacon color. Most of the colors blend in with the environment. Purple makes a great contrast to pretty much every biome in this game. Maybe white, too.
And maybe an overhaul for the seatruck Ui, adding in a basic altimeter for checking your pitch & Yaw. I get up and down mixed up a lot so… yeah.
wht we talkin ab
I’m going on a rant about what to add to Subnut bz
so like stuff youd add and change if u could
That would be cool. Seems obvious now.
Yep
hmm im not sure if theres anything id add or change
the hit box of fish and the cluster thing that makes rubber and lubricate
make it bigger
im here doing acrobatics to find the area where itll allow me to grab a cluster
💀
yea besides that i really cant think of anything
autosave feature maybe that can be toggled
We need a “Thinker🗿” channel where we can add ideas for what we want to see later in the game. Like those Ui tweaks & stuff
if its not a super big want from the fandom i doupt much may come from it
what things would u change
i want a white highlight color
i get so motion sick in the seatruck all the time
the first time i drove it i ran into everything
Since the next game uses a totally different engine, I’m guessing backporting changes will be extremely difficult. But such a channel could be somewhat useful just to spitball ideas.
For the next game…
Thas what I’m saying
The issue in the next game will be vehicles cuz Subnautica core is about vehicles and if they don't make good ones the game is gonna flop like below zero did
i suppose so. speaking of the next game has there been any update on it? like whats the most recent one
I wouldn’t say BZ flopped, but it did have issues in development to overcome from what I’ve heard.
Heyooo
im not like sea emperor deep into the fandom yet so i dont know every little bit of info reguarding outside of the game sorta info
How we doin' gamers
im pretty good! hbu
All that has been said officially is that it will be a direct sequel, so SN2. Beyond that, nothing.
Yea but the sea truck for example isn't as notable and nostalgic as the seamoth
Glad to hear it, I am alright myself ty for askin
thought so
Just chillin' like a villain
The seatruck is more of a seatank
well the nostalgia is probably from the fact its not as old and you experienced it differently
The Sea Truck has grown on me, but it definitely has lots of room for improvement.
by than you had a feel and knowledge of what subnut vehicles were like
it wasnt a totally new magical experience
Like, the perimeter defense is too op, they’ve gotta up the healthbar on the hostile life forms
Even just being able to build in it would be amazing like with the cyclops
oh def
i do think the compartments being detachable and just the general concept of a seatruck was really cool but that being the only thing is sorta like
ehh considering the old game had 3 super cool ones
I love the sea truck, I just wish they went with a different design
Not a fan of the bulbous cab
what do u not like ab it
A blank compartment you could build in would have replaced the fabricator and storage modules totally.
maybe it wouldnt if it somehow cost less to make than the open compartment + the stuff youd put inside yourself somehow?
I would have preferred a more angular and sleek design
tho lockers and fabs are rly cheap so
But I personally like the Seatruck way more than the Cyclops
Sea truck woulda been cool in original SB
yk what i want that doesnt even have to do with a already in-game thing
i want a pet
a pet to follow you around
The cyclops is prob my favourite vehicle just because of how many features it has i loved how you could click the on screen buttons to enable shields or change the speed, I also loved how you "explore" it making you feel a sense of power the cyclops really delivered and hopefully the atlas submarine which I rumored to be added to Subnautica 3 will be as good as the cyclops
or like we get to ride an animal instead of the snow fox
like imagine riding the thing that ||marg|| has as a pet i forgot its name
The reasons why you love it are why I dislike it haha
But I get it
im back from my timeout
yea that was nice
The snow Fox was def a waste it would have been better if you could use it to ride the surface of the sea as well
Ofc with some limits
tbh i think my only subnut hot take is that i dont like the prawn. dont like is a strong word, im more so eh about it. like i never ever use it unless im drilling deposits
Drilling is its main feature.
its such a cool idea like i LOVE the concept but its so hard to ride and mostly useless
The prawn suit is really useless in Subnautica below zero and sort of a recycled vehicle just because they didn't have any other idea
imagine riding to the ||garden that the lady invites you to then you get dragged down into the sea by the chelicerate||
yea but i see most people using it for everything
I'm personally not a fan of the Cyclops, it's really big and clunky, the original Subnautica's map was barely big enough for it, so no way it was getting in BZ. I also found that the Cyclops trivialized the game, throughout development they tried to find a good balance to it, and while it's not an impenetrable fortress anymore, it still makes everything a non-threat.
Friendship ended with snowfox now prawn suit with grappling arm is my new friend
that doesnt exist in this chat
Exactly the snow Fox is def a cool concept that could have been made into a bigger and better vehicle
im talking og game too, i just dont like the prawn nearly as much as what others seem to say
The prawn was a really basic vehicle. It really had no potential but it was iconic. So there really was no way to pass up adding it to bz
I liked the Prawn before they removed being able to use Crashfish as live Ammo
i get that but i was still pooping my pants around every corner lol
Drill Arm + Propulsion Arm was my favourite
Remember what they took away from us
This, but if it was the seatruck
There are lots of resource outcrops that require the prawn to drill into, so it needed to exist. Otherwise they’d have to explain the lack of resource outcrops.
i feel like the snow fox looks cooler and is generally cooler its just SO hard to pilot and the fact you get kciked off by worms makes it entirely useless
Hovering vehicle is everywhere in sci fi I want something unique
they could have just mde a hand-held drill tool maybe
Not sure what you mean, the large deposits were created for the prawn drill, not the other way around
they should add an upgrade to prevent that (its expensive though)
The chalcerite (idc if I made a typo) was such a good concept but why a leviathan? It just doesn’t stick as a cold water fish.
idk i like the cliche hovering future thing
Shrimp live in cold waters
i also like motorcyles and it reminds me of that so i think its super cool
Good on you
I def felt fear while using it tbh and yea it's clunky and the map wasn't as big but hopefully the atlas which is rumored to be added to Subnautica 3 will bring a bigger map and possibly more enemies like the scrapped concept of the biome that was one cell that wanted to kill and devour everything in it's range
im gonna get a heart attack
I'll just never like the Cyclops, what I like about BZ is that I am forced to get up close and in dangerous situations with the big monsters, that just doesn't happen in the Cyclops in the Original
I can already imagine the dev scratching their head on balancing that map
whats a cyclops?
That's prob why they scrapped it but I loved the biome
honestly i like bz a lot more even with its flaws than the og but thats probably bc im more of a 'stardew valley, minecraft, Z:BOTW' player and not a "survivial game except your actually surviving and fearing for your life player"
I like BZ more too, such a hot take though
bc bz is scary but im not so scared that i cant leave the drop pod spot
Yea your given so many tools and you actually feel like there's life
yea i feel like i can enjoy the game
Subnautica was so scary there was only you and the ocean
I also like the biomes more in BZ, too many "dead space" in the original's map.
That’s literally just the preythoryn Scourge Crisis from Stellaris.
"Wow here is destroyed ecosystem biome #12"
bro you guys were too scared to leave the drop pod area in subnautica?
There are so many dead spaces in BZ just go under an iceberg nothing but rocks and some fishes
like i dont have to dread running out of materials when building and having to go out and nearly get eaten to get 3 rubies or something
West Arctic is the only real offender
i do have horrible irl thalassophobia before playing the game but i know people who dont who had trouble going out
I wasn't i got a time capsule about continuing the cycle of killing a reaper leviathan with a knife and the gun that made stuff freeze in place so I went to the aurora and killed one
i could only dream
One of my few complaints about BZ is the overruse of brute sharks
i dont like killing things in games in general unless its like for food
They really just went and threw them in every biome
or thats the point of their existence to be fought
I only saw them in the twisted bridges tho
yea me too
They are in twisty bridges, lilypad, tree spires, and west arctic
bro i accidently left the ||lost river at the wrong exit|| and i had to defend my self with the perimeter defense system on me seamoth from a ||ghost leviathan at the bloodkelp zone in the floating islands||
i got rid of one bc it kept lurking aorund a very resource bountiful area and thats the only thing ive ever killed in any subnut game
huh odd ive never seen any outside twisty
Literally hated those biomes never went to them without Atleast having a perimeter defense upgrade
From the wiki
i remember not knowing there was one in there and seeing it swim above me for the first time and just sitting there for literally 15 mins
i did all of that just for a cuddlefish egg
like thats what sucked so much fun from the og game. Id be too scared to do much so most of it was me just sitting there in fear or going out and collecting the bare minimum so i can get back to saftey faster
i didnt get damaged once by the ||ghost lev|| i was a fearless fighter
you have a cyclops?
in the og yes
is that in creative or survival?
survival
I remember being afraid of the Pinnicarid when the early access dropped
dang i dont even got the cyclops yet
I thought it was a brute shark, until I met the real brute shark
the only hard thing ab cyclops building for me was the frags
that things cute tho
ik, I love em
i had to get ruby so instead of going to the sparse reef where its much safer ||i went to the lost river||
😭
Also squidsharks in the lilypad biome always bothered me, they were so well crafted for the deep twisty bridges
fr
yk i watched many playthroughs n stuff ab the og game ever since it was in early access so ik all the lore n story n stuff but ive never finished it myself
Feels like the lilypad biome is just every creature thrown in
same
bc of how lowkey draining it was to play
I recently did a playthrough of it
in creative i build bases in the void for fun
all i see in lilly is the whales
Also Subnautica 3 will have multiplayer
But I took a 6 month break while completing it lol
good i dont have friends 😁
yeah ik that very excited
i have a sister so its close enough for me
average og subnut experience
I remember going to the Lilypad biome, and being jumpscared by sea emperor leviathan
..in og?
i believe that
No, BZ
yea makes sense
exactly
Sea Emperors were initially gonna be part of the BZ story
probably one of the kids coming to help u cure the levi stuck in the ice
So when the early access dropped, they could be found in the lilypad biome
Also none of my vehicles ever got destroyed once in both games I'm just that good
same
ohh
im not good i just mastered the run and hide
3 of them to be exact, they were even gonna talk to Robin
i dont see how they couldve been in the story but that could've been cool
but || alan and marg|| is enough sentient ppl for me
The story went through a few rewrites during development
Back then they had a place, for the current story we have, they didnt
and thus got removed
ye thats how most story dev goes
the ||sea emperors would have been the children of the SB1 though right?||
Yes
yk a few years i thought the gargantuan levi was a canon thing in the game
n didnt realize until a few hours into playing bz so for those few hours i was like
'where is it.. it could be anywhere'
imagine just ||swimming over to them and saying hey i killed your mom so you could be born then swam away||
Yea also keep vomiting weird stuff please so you can heal the whole planet
im pretty sure they know how sea emporers have kids
Well that was the survivor of the Aurora crash, not Robin lol
not too phased by it
oh right ii forgor
yea that too
||Also he didn't kill the sea emporer, the emperor was barely clinging to life, she was hoping someone would come along and free her kids||
yea fr
My question is what if a levieathan comes and sweeps up the kids
me too 😭
Just a big Slurp
im sure they have some way of detering them but still
Well it's funny cause ||an emporer juvenile can be found in the mountains, and grand reef, both home to leviathans||
hopefully they grow fast enough so by time they interact with a levi theyll be big enough to fight
or not be of interest to it
im sure theyd fight if they had to
Nuh
talking ab babies
Uh
They prob use mind control to do stuff
their barely bigger than the player
LMAOO mind control 😭
😭
it just wants to give u a kiss
u have a new friend
Even clipped through my sea truck a bit
u tamed it
srsly
actually how about no more vehicles at all in the next game
we just ride leviathans
I like my sci fi vehicles lol
i like riding animals
You would like a little game called Ark: Survival Evolved then lol
over 2000 hours here 😭
DAMN 😭 i just get too demotivated when i die for the 500th time
It is a very unforgiving game
like when something goes super wrong in a game and ik itd take a bunch to recoop i just dont play it for months and forget it exists and than when i remember i fixate on it for weeks till i get demotovated again
How'd that go
honestly rly good considering i havent drawn a dino since i was like 6 lol
is it possible to plant ur own spiral plants? with the chunks u get
yes
k thanks
