If you're okay with getting trauma and thallasaphobia

#

Then go right ahead 😉

sterile violet
#

You can't just get thalassophobia like that

#

I been to the sb1 void a lot and it terrifies me even after I beat the game

nova isle
#

Reapers if they were boring

sterile violet
#

?

nova isle
#

And looked like oversized shrimps

sterile violet
#

Because they are

nova isle
#

The thing I love about reapers is how alien they look

sterile violet
#

People like reapers because they look like real animals

nova isle
#

I don’t like it when they make leviathans that look like they’re from earth

nova isle
#

What animal looks like a reaper

sterile violet
#

Giant Oarfish

nova isle
#

Oh damn that fish looks awesome

#

but the best thing about the reaper is the face, terrifyingly strong jaws, and the arms that grab you

sterile violet
#

Ngl compared to the other levithans in this game and sb1 the reaper is definitely the most like a real animal

nova isle
#

I see what you’re saying, but the reefback is basically just a giant squid and the ghost leviathan is just a glowy hammerhead shark

#

the one in below zero (not the shrimp) is really cool though

#

And terrifying

broken badge
#

The Shadow leviathan?

gleaming folio
#

just started below zero after beating subnautica, cant wait

gleaming folio
#

just started, what in the earth is this

broken badge
#

It’s a leviathan

untold harness
broken badge
#

There’s Glow whales, Shadows, and Chelicerates (those at least I recall)

next current
#

||Chelicerates, Void Chelicerates, Glow Whales, Vent Gardens, Vent Garden Juveniles, Ice Worms, Shadow Leviathans, and Squidsharks (in canon)|| are all leviathans in Sector Zero.

weary salmon
#

is subnautica below zero still getting updates

next current
#

I think BZ is getting an update dedicated to the Steam Deck. Other than that, the team is busy working on Subnautica 2.

weary salmon
#

ok

lavish tendon

# weary salmon ok

I believe bug busting is still a thing, always report in the feedback etc thing

weary salmon
#

ok

sterile violet
#

Is prawn depth mk2 expensive

sterile violet
#

Ig maybe the ice worm but it's probably not

#

Chelicerates are scary

sterile violet
#

Where do we get kaynite and Nickle from?

#

There must be a lost river type biome

steel stream
#

Nickel in lilypads caves (or pin recipe and see monkeys there). Kyanite in crystal caverns

sterile violet
#

Crystal caverns...

#

Where is that

sterile violet
steel stream
#

Deep...there are entrances ||under marguerite's base and in deep purple vents, close to the fossil excavator artifact||

sterile violet
#

Is her base at delta station

steel stream
sterile violet
#

Marguerite is mad that I entered her land

steel stream
#

What would you think when going to deepest areas of the game?

sterile violet
#

There's gonna be peepers and cuddlefishes

#

There's probably some crazy levithan in those carvans

steel stream
sterile violet
#

There's probably some werid creature like a creature that directly puts you inside it's stomach or something like that

#

Prawn keeps safe from anything

steel stream
#

Actually you're better off with seatruck down there...at least if you noticed the upgrade module on the floor of Marguerit's base...

sterile violet
#

Seatruck would be better?

#

I gotta find maguerits base I guess

#

Is it like a zapper module like the seamoth pdu

steel stream
sterile violet
#

Ghost levithans evil cousin lives down in the crystal caves

sterile violet
steel stream
#

With the perimeter defense system (and practise to time it right) it can evade all leviathan attacks without damage

sterile violet
#

Me after ramming into a ememy with horsepower and afterburner and timing it with pds

#

Will sea monkey bring me kyanite

#

Oh wait they don't summon in items they actually collect them

sterile violet
#

Do squid sharks respawn

steel stream
#

I think kinda the same as first game: very few things respawn

steel stream
# sterile violet Will sea monkey bring me kyanite

No, they have a list of 'common' stuff they can bring, another list of stuff they can bring if in your pinned recipes and a list of items they can bring depending the biome (arctic kelp forest or lilypad caves). For example they can only bring diamond if you have pinned a recipe, or can only bring nickel if in lilypads

sterile violet
#

I'm in her base

#

Reaper skull???

#

So she floated on a reaper across the void?

gusty yarrow
#

I might get Subnautica below zero, how different is it?

arctic wyvern
#

quite a bit

gusty yarrow
#

Is it still you can go at your own pace?

arctic wyvern
#

yeah

#

there is a massively different story to it that i wont go into for spoilers

gusty yarrow
#

I only know the ending nothing else

arctic wyvern
#

there are a lot of similarities and a lot of differences so if you liked subnautica most likely you will enjoy this game

gusty yarrow
#

Also heat/tempature?

sterile violet
#

Seatruck with horsepower and afterburner vs jet jump and grapple prawn

#

In speed

arctic wyvern
#

||how deep is the parallel processing unit and what equipment do i need||

sterile violet
#

I found some of it's pieces in the mercury 2

steel stream
sterile violet
#

Oh

#

So is afterburner seatruck or grapple prawn faster

gusty yarrow
#

Does bz have ||prawn suit||

steel shoal
#

But in open waters, while getting deeper, the prawn is faster

sterile violet
#

Finally got my prawn suit fully kitted out

#

Good progress for day 35

#

Bro prawn is so much better than sb1

#

How do I get past the snow stalker in the base?

arctic wyvern
#

i think we have to disable the radio tower

#

then talk to her

gentle cobalt
#

This goof does NOT have a driver's license.

#

(help how do I get him out)

#

😭

sterile violet
#

Everything just got dark and the music stopped

#

Music back but it's changed and very quiet

jolly robin
#

Subnautica below zero should have been a dlc

arctic wyvern
#

just got a bloody jumpscare attack to something i dont even know what

sterile violet
arctic wyvern
#

its nothing like a dlc theres a whole different story many different mechanics

sterile violet
#

Yeah

#

||does the mercury 2 happen 10 years before the degasi||

arctic wyvern
#

||im not sure im going to marguerites green house||

sterile violet
#

On the wiki it says between 30-100 years old

#

I'd assume 30

steel stream
jolly robin
#

It should have been tho

steel shoal
#

It should not

#

It's a full game

jolly robin
steel shoal
#

Selling full games as DLCs isn't very good financially

steel shoal
jolly robin
#

I said it should be a dlc

#

But it isnt

#

should be not is

#

Imagine if the maps were combined into one beeg map, imagine if you were able to use all the vehicles in one game, explore the grand reef with a seatruck or the thermal vents with a Cyclops, and imagine if the creatures from both games were part of the same ecosystem

#

You want the original map and biomes and creatures to explore, but also the new biomes and creatures

steel shoal
#

It obviously wouldn't work

#

But I see the appeal

jolly robin
#

If you play BZ you miss all the OG biomes creatures and vehicles like the reaper, grand reef and Cyclops ect, but playing the OG subnautica means you feel left out and are unable to see all the new things like squid sharks, chelicerates and seatruck

steel shoal
#

I think during SN development, there was going to be an Arctic region, but it was a lot more difficult to implement than they thought. I heard that the DLC idea was to add the area to the game, but they faced many problems. Probably regarding progression, the feel/coherence of the map, and the fact Unity doesn't cooperate when it comes to DLCs.

#

They went for a new map instead, and gave up the DLC idea - a new game would be more exciting, too

#

To stray further away from SN, they scrapped lots of Arctic variants (Arctic Reaper, Ice Breaker Reefback, and other similar creatures) and made unique creatures instead

#

But people stuck with the DLC idea

#

They didn't add the Cyclops to BZ because it wouldn't fit the map, and would be an unnecessary step in progression. They didn't add the Seatruck to SN because it'd make other stuff redundant, and also mess with progression, as well as requiring big changes to the loot pool

steel shoal
jolly robin
#

Intwesting

steel shoal
#

Mhm, and back then, it was an active volcano with Lava Zones on the surface

#

I like the simpler end result. The map started very cluttered with lots of small shapes everywhere, it slowly formed the map we have today

gentle cobalt
#

Guys save me I'm so lost, in which direction can I find the stuff I need to find in the crystalcave 😭
(no need to spoil much, but just something like "go east" or "it's in a cave" would help a lot)

#

Thanks!

#

Awe scallops, went all this way just to find out I still need ||Alan's organs||, they don't happen to be anywhere near here, do they?

eternal garnet
gentle cobalt
eternal garnet
#

depth hints at purple. So neither

#

if you see blue crystals, that's kyanite

#

or maybe you would call that cyan or turquoise

gentle cobalt
#

I'm currently at the ||beryl cave factory||, do I go back up to the ||kyanite cave|| to get to the ||organs||?

eternal garnet
#

yes. I gave depth, this is your best clue

gentle cobalt
#

righteo, thanks mate!

gentle cobalt

Horizon forbidden west X zero dawn is another big one

||guys what do i do ive done the green house bit but idk what to do story wise||

steel stream

Have you explored all alterra bases (map on delta)? Have you explored around artifact beacons (some of them are meant to direct you to new biomes/areas)?

# arctic wyvern ||guys what do i do ive done the green house bit but idk what to do story wise||

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 (Security Recording) in the blue rubble of the explosion next to a buried forklift, with the audio||

is marguerits stalker still blocking the room

eternal garnet

nope

arctic wyvern
#

alright

carmine bobcat

guys i got my sea truck and this is how my map looks, where do i go now?

#

i have the 300m depth module

steel shoal
#

Go to wherever you haven't been to

carmine bobcat

will i find a base or something at the places i havent been at?

lavish tendon

Why do you have a map?

carmine bobcat
#

mod

#

bcs i had it in my subnautica playthrough also

eternal garnet
#

in fact never been to delta dock

carmine bobcat
#

i did install it a day later

#

idk about omega base, i can show u my dialogs

#

or pdas if that helps

carmine bobcat

ive seen some lilypads around the map

#

im gonna brb

eternal garnet

little hint for Omega. But there are so many things to find

Yep, I always make my starter base like this in og Subnautica. It has one end that looks very similar to that location in BZ, except it doesn’t have the side window (and of course it joins the other structures). Some people don’t realize you can also add hatches to other sides of the tubes, not just windowsvvWink

#

But I could’ve added a window to the end like I did here

#

Glass makes a base look more interesting, and views are nice to have

sterile violet
#

I got a parallel processing unit

sterile violet
#

But with a few growbeds and two moonpools

eternal garnet
#

note that foundation is not required

#

and it's nearly impossible to remove

broken badge
#

Yeah it’s a very annoying restriction that we can’t remove a foundation without removing everything on top of it firstrooMadCry

You can once you’ve been to her greenhouse and then go back there

Oh

#

cool

eternal garnet

Scan that gas cooker

karmic osprey

I did

broken badge

There’s a bathroom set too

karmic osprey

I saw

next current
#

That does not feel gas powered.

eternal garnet
#

stove?

next current
#

Yeah.

#

That's electric at most.

eternal garnet
#

it has those flimsy metal fins on gas cookers, if I rememeber

next current
#

Electric stoves can have that.

#

Also gas stoves have open flames. That's why they're called gas stoves. :|

i got bored of below zero after exploring most of the map in the few first couple of hours is it worth getting back into 😭

eternal garnet

Maybe. it changes once you find a distress call source

karmic osprey

I think I had an accident

dark crow
#

im actually so annoyed now where do i find these bloody spiral plants ive searched everywhere

eternal garnet
#

What are those plants inside there?

dark crow
#

inside?

#

you mean the apparent cave ive never found?

eternal garnet
#

not a cave. it's a creature or maybe a plant

#

it's directly south of delta dock, but not near it. It's not missable

dark crow
#

mk

eternal garnet

so it's in tree spires

Hey! kinda being camped in the purple gem cave rn where is nickel

#

why not get camped when you can get camped deeper!

eternal garnet
#

I think there might be some rarely. Best place is deep lilypads. Monkeys in lilypads can give it

eternal garnet
#

in case you didn't know, 50% is random, 50% is any basic ingredient from your pins

#

they can get magnetite, nickel, not kyanite

sterile violet
#

Bro where is this greenhouse

#

Couldn't she give me coordinates

undone mauve
#

uhh where can you find table coral and some gel sacks

steel shoal
#

Twisty Bridges trench and Purple Vents caves, respectively

eternal garnet
#

deep twisty also has gel sacks

eternal garnet
sterile violet
#

So the world edge isn't the void

#

I'm stuck at the sea bed and a levthan is attacking

#

It's so hard to stay on direction east

eternal garnet
#

look back at the delta beacon. 1130m is what you want, and due east

sterile violet
#

Gotta avoid the Chelicerate in the area

#

So there's like 6 Chelicerate in game

#

1 in purple vents, 1 in east arctic and 4 in tree spires

next current
#

2 in the Tree Spires.

gaunt spindle
#

what is a chelicerate

sterile violet
#

Is the sea truck better than prawn?

gaunt spindle
#

i mean for adventures yeah

sterile violet
#

I'm sb1 I used prawn to adventure everywhere

gaunt spindle
#

crazy

#

u traversed the waters in a p.r.a.w.n.?

#

i would get so mad cuz of how slow that would be

#

on land tho being in a p.r.a.w.n. isn’t a bad idea

And you are reading databank entries, right?

gaunt spindle

i visited the woman’s base

#

the underwater one

#

i’ve been to delta island

gaunt spindle
next current
#

Did you scan the Alterra Facilities Map at Delta?

gaunt spindle
#

yes

next current
gaunt spindle
#

yeah

#

like 40 mins ago

next current
#

My best advice without spoiling anything is to go west and do the whole land section of the game.

gaunt spindle
#

i don’t have cold suit

eternal garnet
#

it's not required. Heat sources: caves, open water, pepper fruit (grows in caves), any vehicle, coffee

next current
#

Caves, heat geysers, flares, The Snowfox, and the Prawn Suit all heat up or decrease the player's heat drain.

#

Oh yeah... and coffee and heat fruit plants.

eternal garnet
#

any vehicle means the bike too

next current
#

WOOO! THE BIKE!

eternal garnet
#

hey, it's fun. Once you learn to oversteer

echo trail
#

~~ still need that achievement ~~

gaunt spindle
#

my only vehicle is the sub i can’t remember what it’s called

echo trail
#

Sea truck?

gaunt spindle
#

yeah

next current
#

WOOO SEATRUCK!

gaunt spindle
#

seamoth better

echo trail
#

Sea truck is the best vehicle.

gaunt spindle
#

cyclops better

next current
#

No...

echo trail
gaunt spindle
#

p.r.a.w.n. better

#

legs better

next current
#

You're allowed to have your own opinions.

echo trail
#

No fabricator on the sea moth and prawn suit can't go up

eternal garnet
#

so in this case, the prawn does keep you warm

gaunt spindle
echo trail
next current
#

But between both games, the Seatruck is my fav.

gaunt spindle
#

in bz p.r.a.w.n. is the all rounder

next current
#

Might change when SN2 comes out.

gaunt spindle
#

can go underwater and on land

gaunt spindle

#

And my shelf full of salads is nice.

gaunt spindle
#

someone had a really good explanation on the sn2 vehicle shown

echo trail
#

We haven't been shown any vehicles?

gaunt spindle
#

it’s a tiny submarine

eternal garnet
#

the very first pic we got yes

#

has a vehicle in it

#

that we do not see very well

gaunt spindle
echo trail
#

I mean that could be a drone for all we know.

#

Which would be incredible btw.

gaunt spindle
#

it wouldn’t because it has a huge glass cockpit thing

#

a drone would be sick though

eternal garnet
#

true. It kinda looks like it could attach to a bigger vehicle

echo trail
gaunt spindle
#

it seems like it could be a attachment like a seatruck thing

#

I'd love a big sub again. Missed that in BZ.

echo trail
#

Sea truck can get pretty big.

#

Wish it had a garden module.

nimble moss
#

I liked the Cyclops more for sure.

gaunt spindle
echo trail
#

I agree. I don't think the cyclops would fit in bz tho.

gaunt spindle
#

it’s too big for the small bz map

nimble moss
#

No it wouldn't, but guessing the 2 map would be larger

gaunt spindle
#

yeah it’s larger than sn1

echo trail
#

Do we know that?

gaunt spindle
#

yes

#

obraxis said it in an interview

echo trail
#

I need to read through the interviews.

gaunt spindle
#

and it’s got relatively the same amount of land exploration as the first game too

gaunt spindle
eternal garnet
#

first game land exploration: Very little

gaunt spindle
echo trail
#

Wouldn't mind more. Some of the above water biomes look incredible in below zero.

gaunt spindle
#

land exploration looks cool in bz

echo trail
#

It was fun with my prawn suit.

gaunt spindle
#

do snow stalkers actually attack you

#

like do they hunt in packs like the description says

eternal garnet
#

they attack, but one at a time

echo trail
#

Idk I was carrying flares.

eternal garnet
#

They are very scared of flares. Hold, don't throw

#

also hint, killing them do not give fur

echo trail
#

Still need to grab fur but I have an idea I want to try to get it.

#

I wish there was an alien containment unit without water that could host land creatures.

#

Baby snow stalkers are adorable ❤️.

eternal garnet
#

There's a mod for that, "pets"

echo trail
#

I'm an Xbox player so I can't have that.

gaunt spindle
eternal garnet
#

there's a cave with some, ||south of the inland lake. Or, grab from a live one with the spy pengling||

#

so, two ways

The second one is a lot funnier.

Nope. No seatruck or prawn upgrades stack. Except for storage in the prawn.

Maybe Both. both is good

#

I could dock my prawn to seaduck

chrome cedar
#

Yup

sterile violet
#

I never use my flashlight anyway

sterile violet
chrome cedar
#

Ummm, no.

#

Just pda and it moves off

sterile violet
#

I can also use my modules as a battering ram on it

chrome cedar
#

Repair often then.

sterile violet
#

Btw if I deploy out of the seatruck will he still attack it?

chrome cedar
#

Still don’t understand why people insist on trying to kill creatures in the game.

sterile violet
chrome cedar
#

No, stop piloting and the attack stops.

sterile violet
#

Mmm

sterile violet
#

I'm gonna get 4 seatrucks with afterburner and horsepower and harpoon to the shadow levithan and drag it away

#

And we can put it into a containment facility

sterile violet
#

Should I go full mobile base and have 5 seatruck modules

sterile violet
#

Definitely not

#

Day 65 and I finally have a maxed out prawn and seatruck

tough pilot
#

wahoo!

#

just got the platinum trophy for below zero

If it's currently attacking you, and you leave the Prawn, then it will still damage the Prawn.

#

If you leave when you're alone, it won't attack your Prawn, even if it's right on top

bold monolith
#

The attack on unpiloted vehicles was disabled just because of this case.

#

People were ||crafting Al-An||, and during this time the shadow was playing with their vehicles.

#

On the Seatruck it was because of this.

#

Funny times.

#

Is it just me or do you guys suddenly get jumped from behind when you least expect it

#

Especially in the crystal caves

arctic wyvern
#

||once you do marguerits bit of the story are you just meant to focus on alans body to escape||

#

im just trying to improve my stuff before i do anything

steel shoal
arctic wyvern
#

with the pda

steel shoal
#

Partially, but ||you need to get to the place of her death||

#

Reading the Alterra PDA voice logs will help you locate it

arctic wyvern
#

is that like required to beat the game because i already know how she died its just i didnt find that out within the game i just watched a video of the game

steel shoal
#

Oh

#

Well, it's not required, but you'll be missing out on quite a bit of the game

#

It's why people think BZ is shorter than SN, they skip most of the story AndyPeek

arctic wyvern
#

im guessing you could play the same save after beating it because i usually beat the games and then do everything else

carmine bobcat
#

can someone help me? ive explored the map this far, and now im lost, no ||alan|| calls or new beacons

steel shoal
arctic wyvern

how is there a map also maybe spoiler that alan

All of them

#

There's a map in your PDA with them

arctic wyvern
#

||should i get alans body parts||

steel shoal
carmine bobcat
#

these are my beacons

arctic wyvern
#

what equipment is required for them

#

like depth and upgrades

steel shoal
carmine bobcat
#

and i have been at the ||frozen thing||, but i didnt get a beacon to it

steel shoal
#

And I don't mean the mod map

carmine bobcat
#

what is that pda called

steel shoal
#

Alterra Facilities or whatever

#

it's in the "Maps" section

carmine bobcat
#

this?

steel shoal
#

Visit them all

#

Yes

carmine bobcat
#

but like idk at which ones i was

#

is the green one the phi?

steel shoal
#

There's a legend, but yes

carmine bobcat
#

but like i have been at the orange one many times but there are no bases there

steel shoal
#

Omega is blue, Zero is purple, Delta is yellow, Koppa is orange

carmine bobcat
#

||oh the mining site?|| ive been there yes

#

so ive havent been at the omega

#

everything else yes

steel shoal
#

Omega is a bit tricky to find

#

But you should explore the areas around too

carmine bobcat
#

is the mining site the one where u get the ||moonpool||

#

and|| dock||

steel shoal
#

You get ||skeleton|| SkullAndy

carmine bobcat
#

so ive been there already

#

i guess omega is next

#

ty

steel shoal
#

Have fun

carmine bobcat
#

is there like a lost river here too where i get kyanite?

eternal garnet
rigid rose
#

i see, thanks a million! most online content was only showing the older way of enabling it

sterile violet
#

Can we spawn in seamoth

steel stream
#

I've heard you can with commands, but it won't have texture and might not be compatible with moonpool...

eternal garnet
#

correct. The upgrades also work

#

You can't caps here coolguye

wraith musk
#

does anyone know how to rollback BZ versions on steam? I want to give the early access story a run

eternal garnet
#

on the Betas tab

wraith musk
#

awesome!

#

its april 2020, I assume this is the last build before it got switched?

eternal garnet
#

you want EA8

wraith musk
#

this says EA9

eternal garnet
#

EA9 has old story removed, and is pretty weird

wraith musk
#

oh i see. theres a dropdown
there is EA8 and also EA8.1 which says OG story final build next to it

#

is 8.1 more buggy? or should I go with that

eternal garnet
#

Not sure, someone said 8.1 has some items removed already

bold monolith
#

8.1 was made for people in the experimental build that couldn't switch back to the stable version. I think either are fine.

eternal garnet
#

if you try both, make a new save for each

#

ok nice

wraith musk
#

so theres not really any difference between the two?

jolly nebula
#

What should i focus on in my new save?

eternal garnet
bold monolith
#

If I remember correctly 8.1 might have the first draft about the temperature gauge.

#

The red version.

jolly nebula
eternal garnet
#

people miss it, hidden by scroll bar (on PC)

jolly nebula
#

I always do lilypads, so i might branch out a bit

#

Im tired of my green comfort biome

#

I need more ocean adventures

wraith musk
bold monolith
#

It was introduced around that time, but I don't remember if it was in EA8.

sterile violet

I gota find a place for a base

#

Does anyone know why Subnautica says it runs great on steam deck, but Below Zero Doesn't?

eternal garnet
#

from what I hear, it requires is recommended you raise the default 1GB VRAM, but then it runs fine

eternal garnet
#

did you ever have mods installed?

#

Also, which CPU model do you have

#

if you can post me the game log, from this folder
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero\

Paste that into a folder address bar, or a Run box
Post player.log here or a DM if you like

arctic wyvern
#

verify game files just to see if its an easy fix

eternal garnet
#

You can't be here with a pirated game

arctic wyvern
#

perhaps dont admit that

eternal garnet
#

Also, you have trojans now

arctic wyvern
#

and yes im with meatie swe

eternal garnet
#

Your PC is now part of a russian bot net or such. I promise.
And I have to ban you now

arctic wyvern
#

your a play tester can you even do that i thought only mods can?

eternal garnet
#

playtesters are backup mods. If we want to

arctic wyvern
#

👍

#

it doesnt say in the rules its not allowed?

eternal garnet
#

...

arctic wyvern
#

legally its not i know

eternal garnet
#

it's breaking the law. It even breaks Discord rules

arctic wyvern
#

oh ok

sterile violet
#

I need to build in the crystalline Caves

#

I thought the || frozen levithan|| was gonna be inside fabricator Caves

sterile violet
#

So since I have max depth modules I am ready to go down

wraith musk
#

@bold monolith @eternal garnet any idea where I find the compass in this build? I have gotten rebreather, seat truck and first 2 modules, high capacity tank, but no compass

eternal garnet
#

it's a base recipe, I think

sterile violet
#

I'm gonna explore the deepest biomes

#

So fabricator Caves is good to build

wraith musk
eternal garnet
wraith musk
#

this is the build

fringe peak
#

Modded?

eternal garnet
#

might as well cheat it in: unlock compass

wraith musk
#

yeah man I'm asking about unlocking in the old story

eternal garnet
#

I believe so. Anyway i'd cheat it in. F8, F1, click hide console, F1, F8

wraith musk
#

yeah, i've beaten BZ 6 times

#

never the old story though

eternal garnet
#

so no shift-enter here

#

july 2020? then it's not in game

wraith musk
#

thank you! who knew I'd be reffering to ancient history

eternal garnet
#

try unlock anyway

wraith musk
#

where is the hide console button in the F1 menu?

eternal garnet
#

oh, F8, F3. my bad

#

you press F8 just so the mouse works

wraith musk
#

ok and how do you use said console?

eternal garnet
wraith musk
#

thank god, thank you. +1 compass later

eternal garnet
#

Youll find glacial basin completely redone

#

This version is even more maze like

wraith musk
#

what's weird about this build is I did not get jumped by Marg on Delta Island, but I was expecting to be

#

also I am fuming mad that this build has a back up camera for the truck! why on earth was this cut.

eternal garnet
#

it was a lag maker

wraith musk
#

Weird. I’m having no issues with it.

eternal garnet
#

if things won't run well on all platforms, it may get cut. I think that is the case here

#

Also, there's no fog, so its a little cheaty

wraith musk
#

So can I just go straight to Marg’s house? Or is there another way to trigger her.

My main problems is I don’t have the blue print for the truck depth upgrade. It’s typically unlocked by default. I’m betting I need a moonpool to get it in this early build… but the only 1 I know of in game is her house. Beyond my current crush depth.

#

swam to Marg's... this is new. I wonder how you were meant to progress this old story. Now I need a door code I don't have

eternal garnet
#

when you... deserve it

#

i don't know if theres triggers or timers

#

I think triggers

wraith musk
#

So I take it I need to repair this radio tower. But after scanning it I got no new recipes to fix it. I visited the crashed ship and instead of the PPU I got “ship wreck salvage”

eternal garnet
#

that's it, yes. Bug to be aware of: the tower breaks later after fixing it. Disregard, it's a cosmetic bug

wraith musk
#

Just swam to the crystal caves from Marg’s… and there’s no crystals! Also Al-an has been decidedly quiet since I got him. He hasn’t spoken to me again since the first time I pulled him.

#

How did i 100 percent below zero before i even beat subnautica

wraith musk
#

Really? So you’ve never played Subnautica but you beat below zero?

novel dagger
eternal garnet
#

playing and beating are different things. The first game is actually kinda hard to finish

wraith musk
#

lol spiral plants drop synthetic fibers. Way to skip the middle man of crafting them hahah

wooden junco
wraith musk
#

got nothing

stone quarry
#

honestly i dont remember getting depth upgrades in below zero 😭 i just freeballed the starting depth

wraith musk
#

Yes. After some driving around she called me again and NOW Alan finally speaks! He’s even more sassy in this story than the finished product!

#

no...

#

but as i was typing that, boom another transmission

#

now i have the depth blueprints huzzah!

I have to figure out what biome I build in

Started a playthrough

actually way cooler than I thought

too tired to play rn tho

there's an undeserved amount of critical YT videos of this game. But of course also the opposite

Below zero gets hate for no reason it's such a good game

Fabricator carvens?

low phoenix

Should I make base at it

eternal garnet

I would not. it's far from everything

low phoenix
#

Fabricator is a location?

eternal garnet
#

and not a great area to live

low phoenix
#

I'm thinking the wrong game here

sterile violet
#

What about the crystal Carvens

eternal garnet
#

better

#

but hey, you build where you want. Got a land base?

eternal garnet
#

watch what a hatch does on land

sterile violet
#

||kharra is still a threat??||

not really

I thought the || sea emperor and riley cured it already ||

well maybe this big guy has been sitting a long while

sterile violet

Do I have to spoiler sb1 spoilers here's

eternal garnet
#

best to do that, I think

sterile violet

The crator is probably a sector now

sterile violet

Bro the ground is shaking

this is normal, definitely no huge monsters

Is water purifying tablets good

#

I already have a filtration machine

eternal garnet

for making water on trips, yes

sterile violet

Should I make a snowfox

oh it goes in waves, related to sales

#

The insane amount of ambience of the crystal caves

#

How am I gonna transport enough resources down here to build a giant base though

eternal garnet
#

two storage modules

sterile violet
eternal garnet
#

ok, 12 storage modules

#

ship a lot of ingots

sterile violet
#

Wait yeah couldn't I just turn titanium into ingots and use the alien tech to turn it back

eternal garnet
#

yes, and glass and such

sterile violet
#

Will shadow levithans just be a minor annoyance

eternal garnet
#

in a base, yes

#

they seem to ignore bases

sterile violet
#

Lithium and titanium to ingots, copper to copper wire and quartz to glass

#

Tree spires or crystal caverns?

chrome cedar
steel stream
#

How about advanced wiring kits to include some gold as well?

sterile violet
steel stream
#

Wait, that needs also table coral...

arctic wyvern
#

yes

#

2

chrome cedar
#

I tie up most of my advanced wiring kits in extra seatruck docks…. LoL

arctic wyvern
#

so you have like a million reinforcements and foundations im guessing

eternal garnet
#

fun fact: deeper builds need more reinforcements

arctic wyvern
#

oh damn my lava base in other subnautica is gonna need a ton

sterile violet
#

I wanna build in the crystal Caves cache

#

Where the ambience goes the hardest

#

Can we attach seatruck to a seatruck dock module?

#

Like the thing where we can attach a prawn to but sea truck instead

eternal garnet
#

uhm. it's what it does, yes

#

and the modules become rooms

chrome cedar
sterile violet
eternal garnet
#

oh. no

#

to a base

sterile violet
#

Damm

#

Ye I already have that part in my starter base

eternal garnet
#

I have not missed docking my truck to a truck

chrome cedar
#

Seatruck doesn’t attach to another seatruck. Which is kind of a pity, twice the power…

void cypress
sterile violet
#

More water pressure

eternal garnet
#

it's a little bit of realism

#

There's a lot of boring realism that's removed. Like no diving beyond 60m, and have to go up slowly

chrome cedar
#

And yet you can swim around freely at incredible depth while your vehicles get crushed…

void cypress
#

not really. The moonpool says the water pressure and the air pressure in the base are the same

sterile violet
#

Deep crystal Caves >> fabricator Caves

#

Ngl I was thinking about going full mobile base mode on my seatruck

#

But that speed is so bad

chrome cedar
#

It’s still faster than any of your other bases. 😂

sterile violet
#

Ye

steel stream
#

But need source for power...I guess aquarium module could count as food/water production

sterile violet
#

6.17 meters per second cuddle

#

Maybe I should only keep 3

sterile violet
chrome cedar
#

Park any modules you don’t need for a run at your main base. Attach them when you need them.

sterile violet
sterile violet
#

I don't really need aquarium or sleeper

#

Maybe a extra storage

#

Where is the place with the most deposits?

#

I need silver, gold, copper, titanium

#

Also what's the distance from the thermal vents to the crystal Castle

arctic wyvern
#

smarts

void cypress
#

but the pressure in the base is the same as outside. It's how moonpools work. I realize there is some suspension of reality in a game. That's fine. I just have to not think about it because when I do it doesn't make sense.

sterile violet
#

Is it a bad idea build at crystal castle

#

Oh

#

Il beat it at the main crystal cave

void cypress
#

in physics. The air pressure keeps the water out. Otherwise the higher pressure water would flood up through the pool, compressing the air in the base until there was a balance.

steel stream
#

Databank entry doesn't say equal pressure, but mentions pressurized pool. And to keep the water level, the pressure inside has to be equal to the water pressure...

arctic wyvern
#

is alterra from earth? or is it a different planet

steel stream
#

Noticed some new messages while I was typing...

arctic wyvern
#

me with a airpump in subnautica (I Believe I CAN FLY)

steel stream
#

But going back to reinforcement needs for deeper bases, if the outside water pressure is the same as inside air pressure, why would deeper bases need more reinforcements?

void cypress
#

^ That was my original question

steel stream
#

Yes (sorry for not quoting)

eternal garnet
#

because, uh, yes. With airlocks, which aren't here, you would need it

sterile violet
#

Can we contain void chielriates to research

void cypress
#

I think the real reason is to make building in a deeper environment feel more difficult

#

which is fine for a game I guess.

arctic wyvern
#

i found a defabricator mod i wish they would add that into the game

arctic wyvern
#

like if you accidentally made 2 scanners etc

arctic wyvern
eternal garnet
#

yes. To get it, scan more artifacts

#

"recyclotron"

arctic wyvern
#

oh i was looking at the wrong mods i was on subnautica i meant to be on BZ

eternal garnet
#

yup yup. Idea totally ripped off

steel stream
#

Also continuing the thought process with pressure, since seatruck and prawn need reinforcement for going deeper (depth module upgrades), apparently they don't have equal air pressure inside than outside water pressure...what happens when you get out of your non-pressurized vehicle into pressurised base?

eternal garnet
#

does it have the BZ skin, white, green, ribbed

eternal garnet
void cypress
#

I always pretend they either have some sort of forcefield keeping the water out or it gets pumped out super fast when you get back in.

eternal garnet
#

why? because yes

void cypress
#

But that would be an interesting mechanic to add. The vehicle has to pump out the water every time you get back in and that costs battery.

#

might get annoying though.

eternal garnet
gusty berry
#

where can i find it?

sterile violet
#

Is it a good idea to just run on thermal plamts

chrome cedar
# gusty berry where can i find it?

Inside the ||ventgarden||, knife the spiral plant there. Also in the ||purple vents near the Mercury wreck|| there will often be some spiral plants.

chrome cedar
sterile violet
#

I think Crystal cave has a load of thermal vents

#
  • I could also route some Thermal plants from the purple vent
chrome cedar
#

Only downside to thermal, or anything connected via a power transmitter, is when you reload the save you have a few seconds of an unpowered base before the connections link up.

#

Really wish you could use batteries or power cells that were in a charger in the base to actually supply base power, like a UPS powering a computer during a power outage. Would be so incredibly handy.

gusty berry
#

i dont remember in which way was that

chrome cedar
gusty berry
#

can you show where?

chrome cedar
#

Yellow triangle, and to the left a bit.

steel stream
#

I think they are almost directly south of Delta island

#

Compass though on the map is totally wrong.

steel stream
#

No, the compass is correct

chrome cedar
#

Seems about 90 degrees off to me.

#

Disregard...

steel stream
#

No, North is up, as it should be

#

My greek letters are rusty. LOL

#

Green is phi and purple is zero

Somehow thought Omega was 0, and thought the 0 was Phi...

#

I'm a guy. I don't use maps. LOL

steel stream
#

Not military signs, just Greek alphabet

#

(And zero)

gusty berry
#

is it good way?

#

#

Subnautica 2 servers would be wild

#

100 people on the map

low phoenix
#

Like a Minecfaft server, you're just swimming and you come across a base, also it could have decay (like the abandonned ones from in-game) depending on how long they've been offline.

sterile violet
#

People would host their own servers?

sterile violet
#

Imagine it has producal generation

chrome cedar
#

All speculation. We have no idea how a multiplayer will look in SN2.

#

Map is supposed to be larger though, I believe that was confirmed.

sterile violet
#

A system to make player hosted servers and have a giant procedurally generated world would be wild
