Interesting... I never actually used the grav ball before because it just wasn't necessary in the first game
Usually build one early to catch fish.
That's odd because there is actually quite a bit of stuff that requires lead
If you spend some time with a scanner room and break rocks, you can collect a fair bit of lead easily. I’ve got two or three lockers full in one of my saves.
that’s after sea truck, modules, foundations, and enameled glass.
Yeah that's what I'm doing currently. Scanner room with x2 speed and x2 range, driving seatruck with x2 storage to hot spots and gathering with prawn that also has x2 storage
The only thing I can see about it being somewhat ok is that you don't need to focus titanium if you need lead, but that kind of renders titanium ore nodes a bit useless?
yeah i'm glad i waited to play both after they were finished
this game is full release now right?
Twisty area and north end of Delta are prime spots.
"i like the bruh" quote of the century
how much damage does he do to my seatruck
ok because rn im going to location where the ||alien gets his body||
are you crafting it? There's no point going there until you have 3 parts + ingredients
that's not it. That's just ||one body part||
ohhhhhhhhh ok
and, for the other 2, you do not get beacons
you get clues, and you need to explore to find them
this takes time. But it's also main storyline
oh ok
The ||Tissue is the hardest to find imo||
I'd go for in the water near it. Pick a spot with a lot of room to grow
on land, you can't have moon pool, truck dock, water filtration
isnt it all surrounded by the big spikes and purple vents tho
anyone knows where can i find magnetite?
inside ice bergs, in pengling caves, in deep lilypads biome. There are a few behind phi base, inside the cave
i just reached the big snow land near the worm
find phi robotics then. Go west from the dock radio mast
where do i find spiral plants
thanks
inside a vent garden leviathan. Or, deep under the tiny wreck that is east end of purple vents
i havent seen that garden yet but ik where the wreck is
the really small one with just 1 room inside
yea
deep below theres an artifact. hunt around there for it, white plant
was it near the ||archological site of the alien||
yes. but location is random
I approve of that
Start on land, then extend out and down into the water. I always have my land base connect to my sea base.
possible, but why
sometimes I do the reverse: Build a tower up over the water with an observatory + bed. For the view
Mainly to share power but also makes moving things around easier. Plus it’s cool. 😎
Minimal stuff on the water side, dock, pool, water filtration. Small number of lockers. Everything else upstairs.
use perimeter defense. Fire on attack not before
basically ignore it until it attacks, fire, carry on
alr alr
make sure you know how to fire it
have you not visited the pilot? perimeter defense sits on her floor. Missable
i have
without it, just repair immediately, carry on
looks like a snowflake in the toolbar
oh sh
how do i open this ice wall? there was a sign saying something but it disappeared
whats that
ice wall near worm snow land
if you are at the end of that big cable, this opens only from the inside. it's a shortcut/exit
ok
worm snow land?
official name arctic spires
indeed it is
And this is one of the important hints
conveniently he can't remember where this is
lol so how i have the find the artic spires?
by exploring. direction ||west||
If I put noot fish in alien containment will it eat the other fish
The same way we all do! Go a random direction, get attacked and give up to then go back to your base and look up a guide.
😄
will that big thing with giant spines camp me bc im scared to go out again😭
Usually they stick around the same spot, just don't go too close.
this is what happened after i went out
ima try to go back out
are the spires above or below
it's on land. first, you find the glacial basin, by a dock
i have found myself here
big ice wall? try more north
ok
sort of. The void, south and east
if you go into the void then yes. I don't think theres a music thing
I walked to 500m and my sea glide started glowing
how does the coffee machine work? in the first subnautica it just spawned coffee when you clicked it
so thats how you use thermoses
it's a fairly limited source of heat
out of topic question but, did someone from unknown worlds say that next subnautica was bigger than the first?
I've not heard that. It will take a long time. new engine
i think it was unreal engine 5
yep, best engine
so we can actually expect some next gen graphics?
maybe prioritizing cute over realism. Just a guess. Subnautica looks more cute than real
Where can I get spiral plant clippings?
inside a vent garden leviathan. Or, deep below the tiniest of the wrecks, east end of purple vents
Inside the leviathan?
yeeees
you can grow the clippings. not that you need many
Yeah I just need the prawn depth module
i still cant find the spires
I put the || parallel processing unit in the tower but I still can’t talk to that one lady, did I miss something?||
Oh thanks
this place?
yes, the mast there
this goes to the glacial basin, and the bridge. You do the basin first, before doing the bridge. Walk west a little bit and you get a beacon
ok thx
Game kinda forces you to do it this way
yes yes
Behind the buildings there inside the cave, rare metal. So you don't need to ask for it later
lol alr
oh do scan the wall map inside. also missable
wall map?
map
got it
youll find it, but might forget it's scannable
so i kept going straight
Just explore…. 😎
builds some advanced gear
Scanner room upgrades, thermal power, good stuff.
cant get em all without prop cannon yes
how do i get the snow stalker fur? do i have to look for it like the stalker teeth?
it's in some caves south, or you can grab it with a ||spy pengling||. Killing does not give you any fur
is it hostile
it just want to give you a hug
no flare can withstand a prawn suit
oh you found the trees
i cant orient myself in this region
go to the mast
mast?
north
penguin area?
yes that's a pengling cave. If it has a little machine outside
no, north in the tree area
oh ok
prawn suit best vehicle in snow land
fr, the bike is so slow
Gonna be honest, it really isn't.
Pity there wasn’t a storage upgrade for it though. I might have used it more.
where can i find gel sac?
deep twisty, deep tree spires or lilypads tunnels
many thanks
so i need gel sack to restore the bridge and be able to cross from what i have seen
yes
good then
Plant an exterior grow bed with them, they come in handy.
Once you find the exterior grow bed…
Is it possible to breed ||trivalves||? I know it doesn't work with their tropical counterpart, but the wiki didn't say.
Nope. They don’t breed.
They’re the BZ equivalent to cuddlefish, so similarly they’re not breedable
Was never an in game explanation as to why. I understand why the game made them that way though.
My understanding was there aren’t the right conditions for them to breed
Cuddlefish were artificial, they had no reproductive organs. Don't know about Trivalves
They’re not artificial
They’re just not found in the wild, the PDA entry theorizes they’ve been pushed to the edge of extinction.
Hm, I thought they were made to be pets
They’re highly intelligent, akin to dolphins. They fulfill a role of companionship to the player, I guess you could think of them like a pet because of the way you can interact with them
Edge of extinction because they can’t breed…
Well the entry says we don’t know anything about their lifecycle, but that conditions may have changed (although this is basically saying in other words…yeah they just don’t breed
)
Im used to the PDA knowing everything. LoL
I kinda miss the PDA attitude, wasn’t as much in this game.
You’re favorite activity was … swimming😛
Hey, the last humans on this world all died. But I’m sure you know better. Keep swimming around.
whats this
Ice monster
Frozen fish section of AlterraMart.
It's the big monster with Alien skin Fred was talking about
Fred is so silly, the way he explains things
He’s a trucker. Good guy.
Might want to, ya know, fix that nasty skin infection it has idk
Space cooties.
Has anyone put his shaving kit in their base?
Apparently not the trustiest of truckers. Lots of 'accidents'
i want a sassy pda in sn2 tbh
How else are you going to get such an abundance of Seatruck fragments?
Pretty sure everyone does
Problem
Fr, there sure were a lot of seatruck bits all over the place. I wouldn’t want Fred to be driving me somewhere tbh😅
love the pfp
thx
It wasn't Fred's fault though, I think it was Maida
Alterra stuff breaks so easily…
The prawn suit though...
Guess they haven’t figured out lead is a soft metal.
its okay shes silly
Find some of those snow purification tabs?
I never made that connection. Still, it doesn't necessarily seem like her style to just quietly sabotage Seatrucks.
Fevered peppers give you some water.
Oddly. Seems like they should make you thirsty.
Sometimes crate boxes have water in them too
I suppose.... maybe they're very wet inside?
Come on. She did that to the satellite several times.
how do i get out of here
How else would modules disappear? I think she took them to make the ramming seatruck that hit the lab
If you’re near creepvine forests you can eat creepvine for water too, if you really are thirsty
On the right, stay low. I think.
Fair enough... I knew it seemed fishy when Sam helped Fred solve the problem.
i have flares im fine i just forgot which direction to go
The flares will keep the snow stalkers away, that’s good
so i died
if i die do sum idems dissapear perminently
i didnt relize this is what it did...i wouldnt have died
It’s possible that they might glitch through the terrain. But if you head straight there you can usually reclaim them. Helps to always carry at least one beacon, one will drop where you died to make it easy to find.
i went exactly where i died and i was missing 6 items
where do i find this stuff
It's on the floor, next to it
Broken canister, scan it.
Who’s hyped for the third Subnautica game?
I AM
so if i destroyed snowman before scanning it does that mean i lost ability to gain its blueprint?
Probably...not sure if there's another one somewhere
could be unlocked with a command
No, if you leave and come back, it will be intact again. (I don't think there's another one, though.)
nope it didn't respawn
Really? I think it did in my game after I left the area.
I suppose people want to see what happens? I'm pretty sure that there's only one.
it 'splodes
poof
The sections break apart and it falls over. It isn't very satisfying.
now have to restart game for blueprint of snowman....
You left the area and it still remained destroyed?
Shame on all of you that destroyed the snowman, you only got an unsatisfying animation
yes
Oh, okay.
I did scan it first, though.
When you reload it breaks directly every time.
Ignis, does your map have the caves? Or is it only surface?
Which yellow?
Bottom is orange.
Wait nvm yea
orange is deep lilypads
Just the main area not below.
Is green Twisty Bridges?
enabling console disables achievements?
no, but entering any command does
No, typing a command does.
unplayable...
lol. QmodManager enables them again
20 hour game needs restart...
Once you get all achievements, you don't really get penalized for using commands, I think
correct
and again, just loading your save with QmodManager active resets the cheat flag
I used to be very careful before beating the game, but once I did... entreset has never been so useful
I found this Prawn suit glitch, it gets me stuck everywhere
hmm
It bypasses the condition, it doesn't reset. Like if you remove Qmods afterward you won't get the others.
The cheat flag is still there.
even if you load, save?
Yes.
Totally related, how many Yasmine logs are there? Only found 2 (i love her sm)
Instead of if(!cheatFlag) unlockAchievement(), having Qmods is just if(true) unlockAchievement().
does bepinex do same?
so you can't remove qmod until you catch them all. k
qmodloader lives in bepinex (folder), so maybe yes?
bepinex the mod is for subnautica only I think
is below zero also
you want qmodmanager 4
I shall report you for cheating in a single player game. Not really, obv.
but haven't tried enabling console to get snowman
do eeet. I expect the command is: unlock snowman
what
what is the Nike slogan?
is there a way to check if achievements still on after console enabled?
"console enabled" doesn't affect it. Using command does. But not with Qmodmanager loaded
and, I don't know
get an achievement: make a snowfox, or a pet
or cure someone
cause, you don't need it, cause nearly all mods need QmodManager
I believe Qmodmanager 4 has it too
uhh
mods are really off topic here
does anyone have nitrox mod
no nitrox for BZ
#subnautica-modding has a nitrox server, ask there
k
can seatruck modules receive damage?
Yes.
Definitely…. And the dock doesn’t repair modules, only the truck.
Pretty sure that won’t repair it either.
||Caves areas below the purple vents, and Lilly pad caves.||
Some in the ||deep twisty bridges|| also.
If you have the exterior growbed, plant some there, hit them with a knife to get seeds.
um
wdym low
In the crevices and caves.

Is there a mod manager that works with the Epic Games version? or is there a way to hack Thunderstore or r2modman to point at it anyway?
install manually with QmodManager. I believe that works
meaning, add files to the game folder\Qmods yourself
better than nothing, thanks!
You can always swim away
they all tried to eat me
i swam in circles and lived
alsooooooo ||where perimiter defence bc someone told me it was with the pilot|| but i dont see it
it's on her livingroom floor
i just found it how was i ever suposed to see that
am i suposed to be able to pick this up
drop a beacon at this entrance
then suffer lol
wheres your truck? Peri defense works on this dude too
doesnt go this far down yet
only 300m
ion see nun
it was above me
idk what it is
it has no face
upgrade truck! Grab some kyanite and run awayyyy
and next time, drop a beacon for the entrance
ok so i remember where it is?
i remember tho it was a ||reallyyyyyyyyy big hole next to the pilot place||
all i had to do was go straight
yes. one of 2 entrances
why doesn't lithium explode in water 🤔
uh ohhhhhhhhhhh it saw me again
that's magnesium... I think
not recommended
Was it once possible to obtain seeds for Frozen River Plant 01? It's that green, latticed one that grows out of the ice, and the wiki says you can get the seeds.
🤷♂️
I tried it when I first saw it, and couldn't get it. Probably forgot to implement after EA?
bro he jsut wants to hug
That's so sad. I think there are only two growable land plants found in the wild in this game, and both are useful.
Frost vased, Ice Peppers, Horseshoe shrubs
Oh, I suppose it's three - still, I would appreciate more.
Also, how does ||Marguerite|| get ||Preston|| to and from her ||greenhouse||?
Good question
Preston swims quite well
you can see them swim sometimes
He sits on her lap in the Prawn.
Maybe she has a seatruck hidden somewhere we can’t explore.
How did she get ||Preston||, anyway? I feel like there's a story there.
You mean about the ice worm she rode for two days before she managed to kill it?
Did that really happen? Wouldn't it burrow away?
It does, although I don't see why she would.
Can’t eat salad all the time. Girl’s gotta have BBQ every now and then.
I wonder if she ever goes hunting with ||Preston||.
He lures the ice worms out of hiding.
Okay, I just found a cryptosuchus that got frozen by a brinicle.
Cool
I wonder what the iceberg full of tunnels holds...
I'm glad I brought my laser cutter.
just beat the game so fun
Did you complete all optional quests as well?
||Marquerite questline||
||Sam's questline and curing the frozen leviathan||
I think there should be a spawn code for the void chelicerate, I’m trying to make enclosures for all of the leviathans
The lifepod is in twisty bridges, but the shuttle crash site is sparse arctic, in north
just got the ending mostly spoiled for me
Oof :(
time to go watch below zero ending on youtube
(I haven't beaten regular subnautica yet)
should I spoil the entire below zero story for myself
or should I just sit and be content with the ending ||the precursor takes you to their planet thing|| info that I have
Yo someone
Imma need help, need to find pararrel processing unit, im at the pilot last known location rn
Look for a big ship wreck
When you approached the pilot's last known position, did your pda inform about a wreck?
They're in walls and boxes, requires laser cutter sometimes
Idk where the wreck parts are
south of delta island
I don't think if there's very clear clue that the ppu fragments are in the wrecked ship, but when you approach each wreck part for the forst time, you get pda message of the wreck, and usually players like to explore them anyways
Bro nuh uh i didnt know there are squidsharks in here
You can see it when you reach the signal
Preferably circling the east side of the island
Mika, do you know how many Yasmine logs are there? I only have 2
Cannot remember
What signal
Last pilot location or something
Bro these squidsharks i hate them i aint going near them
It's hard, the green biome is infested with them
The best you can do with all danger is just to ignore them
and carry health kits
Quick check on the wiki tells that 2 should be all Yasmine logs
How about Stefanos?
How many
2 Stefanos, 2 Elliot, 3 Diane
Several dozens
Dont worry about them, just go do your own business and ignore them and only deal with them when they come for you
Orion's belt, I have all of them!
Whats their aggro range
Not very high
Hey so i have a question related to ||alien artifacts and Al-An locations he unlocks||
bro idk why but when i save my game it doesnt save
i lost 4 hours playtime cuz of that
You must wait for it to save entirely, and not leave the game while the icon is still there
||So i didn't go to signal location when it first appeared and explored and unlocked some upgrades and now have around 4 or 5 artifacts scanned and only just now i visited Al-An does that mean that he will not tell me Deep Lilypads Cave Cache and maybe Arctic Spires Cache hint locations?||
the game main loop can get stuck, especially on PS4, switch. When it happens you can't open doors, can't save. The world will stop loading but you can move. The remedy is sadly to save more often
You can't even exit game
If you try to save it never finishes. This isn't a save bug, it's deeper
I think No, you don't have to visit them. When you do, turn them off, or you forget which is new. Their real purpose is to have you explore nearby
yes, I think so
They are in the PDA
they are not
They are under all other pins
in beacon manager
||i already got 4 or 5 artifacts which third and fith unlocks new location hint according to fandom||
that's possible. it's complicated
||but if you read again my first reply i said i only now visited his first story place where he transfered||
either way, visit them, take your time exploring around the spots
||according to fandom i had to do first him then he will give me hints?||
cannot confirm or deny. But likely true
||so that means i lost possible locations he should have given me which probably helped to navigate if i mined around those places and also i don't know how to get there||
its one of those i found when was exploring after delta
its also kinda breaks game
hmm so|| artifact q59 "The cache can only be accessed if the player approaches it with Al-An inside their head."|| but i haven't met him before going there and was able to scan
im very confused
which one is that
||Kappa||
that isn't true. Always a risk with wiki/game guides
But, it won't break the game in any way
I think all artifacts can be scanned without him. Body parts though are protected by a force field that only deactivated when he’s with you.
If you get a beacon to already scanned artifacts I can’t say, possibly some.
||or maybe i just got first place location just now? he just spoke to me around that area i think||
Maybe
If you would scan all the artefacts without ||AlAn in the head|| how would the game trigger the voicelines that give you hints and clues when you finally have him?
I don't know. But I know testers test this type of thing. Not me tho
Some events are on timers, timers possibly started by other events
others are area triggered
Agreed, still the best to play in a certain order to have the most fun!
typical example: there's a timer to enable delta beacon starting with your game. But if you get near it, it triggers now
Good example, yes.
The thing here is that Al-An giving beacon signals to artifacts is time-based, but him giving hints to body part locations (and also some blueprints) is triggered by scanning certain amount of artifacts.
I quitted playing but didnt find the wrecl
looks like all location hints has been shown just needed to wait some time
Yes, my question was what happens if you scan all artefacts before having him? Will you still get hints and clues?
Just for curiosity.
I dont know tbh
Did you know that you can shatter brinicles with the Seatruck without hurting it? I find it enjoyable.
Ew
Poor shadow leviathan...
Related to that, I noticed that rock punchers don't damage seatruck when they jump on it
i should have listened to pda
prawn really gives you an invincible feeling
Imagine permanently removing the wildlife due to skill issue....
my bad...
dawg im scared still cause of subnautica
below zero is super scary
do leviathans regen?
No
what the hell?
NOOOO
Arms reaching backside?
yea
Can you still enter it?
What biome is it
Nah theres no hope, ill never find the mercury wreck
how do i put the spoiler blur on text
Use || and in the end again two of those
lemme try
||spoiler||
ok
|| should i visit the zero station first or after rebuilding alan? ||
||
||
||building alan|| is basically endgame, well soon after
don't bother with that until you have all 3 parts
20-40 hours for most people.
There are two independent side stories: Sam's fate, and Maida
storylines
how do i know if i got them
even tho i don’t think so
im at like 14 atm and i’m ready build the guy
you find where/how she died, and for maida, visit her greenhouse
||isnt maida margareth? or they both have a greenhouse||
||cuz now i think i’ll go to zero research building ||
yes that's her. aka. the pilot
i think i’ll look up on internet for them,i now nothing about it
Im too stressed to try to find the pararrel processing unit, like without squidsharks it would be so much less stressful
Squidsharks don't enter the wrecks, so you're safe from them inside
Hello!
just finished the game
I need help finding a map of Below Zero with a coordinate plane overlaid and I just can't find one
nice

I found one for my Subnautica playthrough no problem but I can't find a map with coords for Below Zero
But are the coordinates accurate? I’ve seen some maps that have the scale wrong. Haven’t seen that one before though.
I believe so
can i do anything with depleted reactor rods? or do i just trash them
actually it doesent even let me place it in the trash can
Nuclear waste recycler. There's nothing else you can do.
I like the game
huh
it'll still be there, but far away
Can you still go there or is there a barrier
Is there a way to get a power transmitter to start transmitting power to one base rather than the other?
yes put a transmitter closer to your desired base
Thank you... I'll try that.
like, probably add one
There we go... thank you again!
Yeah, they jump to the closest transmitter or base piece. When paths get too close it’s a real pain.
Once had two bases on opposite sides of Delta. Was adding thermal power to the second, like I had the first. Didn’t realize it but the thermal plants were actually just a few meters from each other and the power was all routing to the first base…
Had to build a series of transmitters on both sides to lead power away through more transmitters before it would stick.
Reloading a save can sometimes cause power to jump wrongly if distance is marginal.
yo, can someone tell me whats the version where there was old story in below zero, i got these things
nvm found online on steamcommunity
Push it with prawn, or shoot something at it with propulsion cannon (be careful as the truck will take damage from hits). Or reload last save
how do you get a higher oxygen tank (higher than 100 oxygen ) idk how
i need it for explorations and stuff
yeah i got depth upgrade 1 on my destruct
sea truck*
i was exploring the deeps alien stuff and this thing roared i looked and it grabbed me and i shat myself 😂
You need (at least) the High Capacity Tank. The data box for it can be found at the I-Compartment Tech Site in the Twisty Bridges (130m depth). That'll put you at 135 seconds of oxygen.
Assuming they also have the rebreather, the data box for that was nearby also.
To answer your question, the pinnacarid draged your seatruck on land. Wierd game mechanics.
Are the pinnacarids dead?
yes, they were annoying
no, the ice sheets loaded in late
You killed them on purpose? They're so cute and friendly!
they were annoying
I’ve never seen that happen. You’d have to show me a clip of it happening for me to believe that lol
Can rockgrubs be put in an aquarium?
I think so
You can pick them up, so yes you can add them
Okay, I shall try it.
I'm convinced below zero is scarier than the original
Has anyone run out of uraninite in Below Zero? I'm thinking of using nuclear for my main base at least, maybe also for a deeper sea base. Was also considering using the recharge reactor rods mod since I hate scrounging for lead.
running out seems highly unlikely
Oh I hope so. There seems to be quite alot in the crystal caves.
But technically possible.
From one trip to the caves I came back with like 50. But I do hate the crystal caves, a combination of always getting lost in there and multipul leviathan attacks.
You could craft some beacons and mark entrance/exit and some waypoints/point of interest on the way. So you always find around and back.
Yeah I plan on doing that next trip. My first trip I only meant to nip in and scan the torpedo arm, then I saw kyanite, then I thought oh I should grab enough for upgrades and one thing lead to another....
No there is plenty. Lead for rods is the limiting factor. But you will not run out either.
Yeah lead is a pain, which is one reason I am considering using the replenish reactor rods mod, it's uses 1 extra uraninite, but if I'm very unlikely to run out of uraninite the extra cost shouldn't hurt too much.
Also do the leviathan attack bases? If I made a base in the crystal caves will the leviathan destroy it?
Only the player can damage the bases
So I'm safe to build a base in the crystal caves, it won't get destroyed?
It won’t get destroyed unless you ram your seatruck or prawn into it or something similar. The big creature won’t destroy it, no
Where should I build a land base? I'm considering the ||Arctic Spires|| and the ||Glacial Basin||.
Arctic Spires.
Good idea. I haven't been there yet, but I will soon. I know you need hydraulic fluid to fix the bridge, but could you in theory build across it?
I don't think so, but I haven't tried either
I don't see how they could make it impossible. It wouldn't be easy or fun, necessarily, (especially when you need resources), but it's not that big of a gap.
Oh, yes. I'm going to give it a go in Creative, to see how it would work.
Apparently, they don't let you build directly above the bridge, probably because of the support struts. However, it is entirely possible to cross with base pieces.
can someone help me find the storge fragment for the seatruck
yes, it's in deep twisty bridges. Holes center of the canyon going below 300m
thaks but i dont know where that is
i just started
found the SOS?
huh
no distress signal?
ok directly south of your pod which is in twisty bridges, it gets deep, then very deep. Then it has holes down to a deeper biome. There. North = volcano
there are a lot of o2 plants, so you can swim if it's too deep for the truck. Also diamonds there
thanks
save often, general tip. Bring a beacon always
k
There are some nice icebergs west of Delta, I’ve build there a number of times.
bro earlier i was looking for starker teeth for enameled glass
Thanks for the suggestion, but I wanted a base in the middle of a large land area, rather than near water.
You're like, "Hmmm... the stalkers in these kelp forests sure are good at hiding!"
There aren’t stalkers in BZ, jsyk, you need other materials for Enameled Glass
||Lead, Diamond, and Glass||
i found that out
Lies!! Deception!!!!
Those bear thingies are adorbs
ya they are
You are literally a moderator.
You have played BZ
Snow Stalkers are real, Stalkers aren’t
You didn't have to point that out
Doubt
:(
I don't know, it almost felt like you were using it as an insult
You
uhh
DevWatcher
how do i get to the architect body cache? i tried going through deep purple caves but it looks like you cant get to it from there
I was using it in a “Youhavebeendesignatedasatrustworthyindividual,sowhyareyoulyingtoinnocentplayers” kinda way
You know that bridge in Phi Robotics island?
yeah
the hyraulic one?
Yes
bruh ok it looked like it was underwater
In your discussions.
are there two then? after going back to the surface it looks very far away from phi
There's only one bridge
body cache
There's only 1 body cache out of water
yeah
theres also only one body beacon
i just thought you go through purple vent but i guess not
Through purple vent place you can get to the purple crystal place
i found it, you have to go through the floating island and down into that red area
"deep lilypads" aka. "flowering spores"
aka red place
I feel like it should have a better official name than Deep Lilypads Caves; after all, there aren't any lilypads there.
I would go with something along the lines of Anemone Caves.
Red place seems more fitting
I mean, it makes sense.
But that’s boring.
At least go for something like orangey land
at this point, skelly area
Skelly?
Okay, I've got it: Glowy Pink Planty World.
So, is it possible to ride pinnacarids? I don't think I can in my games, but I've heard that you can elsewhere.
I think you might be able to stand on them
But there’s no intended ways to do it, no.
Like with sky rays in SN
Yep, they'll probably gonna delay TNGINTSU to update BZ
You could fly by hopping on them when they were close to land
Awesome?
Ah... speaking of, can you still do that in Below Zero?
With sky rays?
I don’t know if there are any in BZ, haven’t played in a while
I don’t see why not.
But the mountain island in SN was kinda the only spot you could get them close enough
Yes, you still can
Not sure it there’s a spot like that in BZ
I tried to scan them in BZ, it was the only way
Phi robotics has a couple spots
really hard tho
One got stuck inside the ||Delta Base|| for me once, so I got the scan that way in my first game.
Poor skyrays. I hope they get out eventually.
Poor fellas
I always help arctic peepers that get stuck on ice sheets after jumping out of the water.
Same
But I have one that is stuck in my moonpool
I leave him there, he’s very friendly
Aww... where's your base?
I have two, but he’s at my Twisty Bridges one
I need a name, haven’t named him yet
I also need a name for my larger friend.
The one with large glowy blue teeth and lotsa legs
Christie
Almost like crystal
Okay... for the peeper, what about Moon?
Both, lol
can someone help me find parallel processing unit
bring laser cutter, to at least 2 of the wrecks here @versed mountain Map is minor spoiler
thanks i will try to navigate this
Bow has 3 pieces, stern 2, thruster 1
what bow
the bottom wreck on the map
It’s the edge of the playable area.
There are other places on the planet obv, but you can’t play in them.
Because they aren’t coded in.
One of the weirdest bugs in this game is that when using the snowfox, if you put in an ion battery
it still uses the model for if there was no battery in it
So mostly I just enjoy gathering materials and building bases. But powercells and batteries always annoy me because they are so weak. So this play through I decided before I really got into it I'd spend sometime setting up vehicles and ho abd mine the ion cubes in the Arctic Spires. So today after 2 werks of admittedly sporadic gametine, I finally went and got the 4 ion cube deposits in the Arctic Spires.
Excellent, ion cells really make a huge difference in long exploring and gathering runs. When you gather material, you also compact it with the fabricator in the seatruck, right?
Compact it how?
Collect 5 titanum and craft an ingot, compact 5 items into 1. Collect another two lithium and craft an plasteel ingot. Compact 7 items into one. Collect 2 copper and two silver and craft a compass. Compact 4 items into 1. The options are endless.
Ahh yeah I get your meaning, and just recycle them later get the single components back
Correct, but only when you need it for building. You also store it at your base in compacted form. Guess how many resources are stored in that single one locker:
Oh lord, a great deal many I suspect
Correct, 13 lockers of material. The maximum I got was 15 from some seatruck depth upgrade.
And I have dozends of them 🙂
Oh wow that's impressive
My next mission is to kill the fing shadow leviathan in the crystal caves to I can build there without them being a pain
Yes, but do it the simple way. How you you do it?
I haven't done it before lol
But how you think you will do it?
How come there are so many new creatures in bz? I just started the game and I’m a bit confused about the location and timeline
But if it’s a spoiler don’t tell me lol
Completely different biome. Same like on earth
Makes sense
I was planning on drilling it to death
And the biomes are sooooo great, looks amazingly natural and fascinating
Ye, thought so, don't do it. The best weapon in BZ is actually your seatruck with the perimeter defense upgrade. Easy and painless.
Yeah it’s very beautiful so far
I’m very scared of the creatures I saw in the trailer that open their faces and have a huge mouth lol
So almost everything 🙂
Does the perimeter defense system do damage?
No not much, but it disables the animal so you can ram it without being attacked.
Right to zap it and them ram it, repair when needed and rinse repeat
The one that bit the cyclops looking thing and the guy spilt his coffee
Exactly, even though I suggest you do not kill until you completed the story and only do it when it affects your base building. Just to have to full playing experience for the main story line. Later I also killed some to get my bases up and running.
THAT is by far not the worst 🙂. But yes, that one is scary! Especially in early game.
I'm not really worried about the story, I'm mainly into building. But why is a shadow leviathan important to the story?
Also how much ramming will it take to kill the beast?
No, it is not, just the ambient feeling gets lost once they are gone.
But once I done building I respawned them to get the feeling back 🙂
About 20 hits, use the seatruck speed booster to increase the momentum.
I just want to gather resources in relative peace.
Correct, thats what I done too.
Ok cool, and they don't regen health I can just chip away at them repair every few hits?
Yes, zap, boost, hit, repair when needed.
I guess I'll try that tonight
Just to be precise, no cyclops in BZ. But the mighty seatruck!!!
Believe me, its the best vehicle for this area. I love it!!!
Ah yeah
Didn’t know the name of it
I’m excited to play
I played for like an hour but I think I’m gonna restart so my girlfriend can follow from the beginning
I am soooo jealous that you can have the experience of a new player in BZ. I wished I could wipe out my memory and play it again from scratch.
I would like to give you one advice: Take your time and enjoy every bit and piece, dont rush through the story. There is nothing time sensitive in it, so take it slow.
Haha, I havent played subnautica, here we go!
I started with BZ and loved it sooo much that I spend over 300 hrs now on my playthrough and base building run. 26 bases in all biomes.
You should
I will
Best singleplayer game I ever played
Graphics aren’t as good as BZ, but the story is immaculate
Correct, right after BZ, hahahaha 🙂
Yeah I wouldn’t know I haven’t finished it
Just treat it as a new game, many people spoil their experience by refering back to SN and complain, that it is not SN. No it is not. It has its own features. Same will happen to me in SN, so I give it some time before I play it.
Also I read leviathan don't renown, this this correct? If I kill the shadow beasts will the be gone forever?
Correct, unless...
Excellent
If there is BZ update and for whatever reason that world junk is renewed by the developpers, whatever was in that world junk before will be respawned. Also resources.
Fair enough
When the seatruck dock update came we suddenly had plenty of resources back in our old save game, that was amazing
I haven't player since the game was early access and all but the very end of the story was in the game. Just came back
Oh, early access! Dont expect to recognize anything in the game at all. It has completely changed since then. Oh wait, that is not true.
You mean early access of the final release, ok. Sorry
I mean I played early access through several stages. But the last time they had everything in the game it launched with, you just couldn't do the every end of the story.
Ok, I confused early access with some of the pre-releases. Yes, long time since
Early access was grand, game cost next to nothing and it was funny watching so many of the weird glitches or funding blank spaces where they hadn't developed a biome yet.
Also lots of abandoned pdas appeared on the map, but you couldn't do anything with them (since you already collected them before the update)
And posters and lab containers and all the good stuff, I loved it!
this biome exists in full release?
Deep twisty bridges is awesome! I build a huge base down there, love it!!!
i never saw this biome
i downloaded early access later so i can play old story nd found this
You must have seen it, because its where you find the ||seatruck storage and fabricator module||. Unless you never scanned and built them.
ye i didnt scan those
Then indeed you did not have a reason to go down there. Also there is an ||Alien artefact|| to scan and your first enounter with a sub-leviathan-class animal 🙂
i completed game already XD
Including ||curing the frozen leviathan||?
yup
Excellent, well done!
im reading through all cut content nd there is alot of cut content including a whole leviathan
Yes, surely a lot was cut. But I made max use of the game itself by filling my PDA with all scannable items, all PDA logs and built all craftable items. Also finding all artefacts, all hidden gems and secret passages and caves. There is so much in the game, that you might have missed.
oh
im checking some videos to know more about old story, ig the dialogues were changed like 3 times
i downloaded early access but im lazy to play so watching youtuber videos XD
Can imagine that, still stiching the story together is quite challenging
I do so too, and also some videos who try to explain the story connecting SN with BZ.
I still wonder how Maida got around when alterra still was there
ig || sea emperor || would have appeared in bz too
Yes, the story was very very different in the beginning.
what if that human is a leviathan? conspiracy theory
like she killed a whole reaper nd got a land pet underground
I wonder how Sam got so much "free" time to go around the map and have extensive visits with Maida without anybody noticing.
Especially that there is a spy tower and a spy satellite above. And she is new to the company in the first place.
Just wondering.
im just waiting for subnautica 3 now
lucky
can weather damage building that are not underwater?
Good question. I'm not sure, but I would guess not.
No, and also no reinforcement needed. So it is quite cheep to build on land.
I think bad weather effect only makes you lose heat faster.
Yeah.
Can you put depleted nuclear reactor rods in ||Recyclotron||
No. They can only be disposed of in the Nuclear Waste Disposal.
A huge waste of good material. So sad they have to be discarded.
The joys of nuclear power...
would subnautica mods work with subnautica below zero?
how do i get a high capacity tank? im really struggling searching the pilot last known position
You have to find the blueprint in ||twisty bridges|||
And keep in mind that you can craft multiple O2 tanks.
aight
dont know where that is. should i focus on exploring the last location?
Twisty bridges is important to explore in the beginning. Lots of stuff to find there
Its where the coral bridges are twisted. Generally south south east of your drop pod.
oh okay, ive probably been there
which way is south relative to land and the pod?
Probabely too early without seatruck and depth upgrade.
You need a compass otherwise giving direction is difficult.
aight thanks
is it far?
nvm i see it
No, I can’t imagine they would
Lol
Has anyone else had a problem with the mouse cursor disappearing after the last major update? - On PC of course
Yes, on both games, and I just submitted bug reports. Just wondering if anyone else knew a solution... seems this has been a reoccurring problem over the years of development, I just haven't ever ran into until after the last update.
Weird. I would try: disconnect any controller, relaunch game
You're looking for a data box for that tank, also another data box nearby that one for the rebreather. Both incredibly useful.
Yo I need some advice
I'm still playing through the subnautica story
but I'm thinking of just spoiling the bz story ahead of time
I know that the main character of bz ||leaves the planet with a precursor to their homeworld||?? but like that's all I know
and also that ||maida survives||
those are the only spoilers I know so far (and also that the sea truck thing is pretty garbage)
You shouldn’t, for either game, imo.
Especially if you haven’t finished Subnautica yet
You should play Subnautica first, then BZ.
I know the story basically in and out for the base game
Spoiler as little as possible, these games are so amazing when played without any prior knowledge
Have you finished it?
You should, first.
alr I'll try to stay spoiler free for now
Some hate seatruck, some love it, and some hate it first but learn to love it
but how spoiled am I so far, like does knowing this affect the gameplay
(and also the other character having been alive this entire time)
Are there any vehicles besides the seatruck in the game? (don't tell me what they are or what they do, just say yes or no)
For underwater transportation at least, I know there's a jetski for some reason
Yeah not played it but it seems like it's trying to do the Cyclops's job and the seamoth's at the same time. I like the compartments or whatever they're called but i would rather the seamoth and Cyclops. At least they kept the PRAWN suit.
Yes
You’ve spoiled some endgame stuff, but there’s still a lot you don’t know yet
I’d stay away from spoilers from now on, the experience is more magical that way
oh that's cool
tysm
now time to never touch this channel again for the forseeable future
Of course! Have fun!

Yes
