No its this guy found it near the ||glacial bay|| maybe
Its called ||pinnacarid||
Thier just laying down on ice
Yes
Fair enough
That looks almost identical to a seal
you figured this out?
Yea i checked on creative
Im on console, cant switch difficulty mid game
Curious, how many of you like to start a new game, just to go thru the initial gathering and building? I find it very relaxing
How many modules can the sea truck have attached at a time?
There is no limit, but you won't move much.
I would say 3-4 is your sweet spot for functionality and actually being able to move it and get it into places
Nah I am attaching one of each module
Horsepower does increase the speed if u have more modules right?
It just decreases the speed decrease the modules give you
its time for me to kidnap some pingvins for my aquarium
i mean im borrowing them forever
Into the biofuel reactor.
Basically can have one more module with roughly same speed than without horsepower upgrade
Is there a giant bottle of prime in a block of size in this game
guys should i start subnautica below zero in hardcore (new world) or no?
it's different. You cannot touch or scan it. It reacts to noise. There's a dead one north-east for scanning.
The area has ||2 pet eggs, 4 mineable ion cube stacks, a regular artifact and a body cache||
alr ima go back to base get my med packs
snowfox is not ideal. At all. Unless it is upgraded to make less noise
where can i find the upgrade?
gimi please
see kidney shape center with tech site upper tunnel. I think there
but prawn or walking works well
no heat in those I think
74 body heat
oh., ok
sure
80% cold resistance
is spy pengling needed?
im gona go to the ice wormies
say hello to and might get some hugs too if im lucky
pengling, no not here
map is a lil confusing
but it will be fineeeeee
what color do i make my snowfox
do i just speed my way through?
no comment, playing Rat Game
alr
20 seconds in already attcked
i think ima go walky walky
so i go the the kidney in the middle?
is that where all the goodies are
kidney??
This map, in the middle it kinda looks like a kidney
well, you can spawn it with a command
i miss the reverse camera on the seatruck icl it helped so much
Where about are the ||crystal caves||
||Thats actually a really interesting thing to consider with the architects, I really like that idea. I figured it was something close to telepathy yeah, I wish they used more of the telepathy thing for the mesmers.||
Legit been looking tere, byt i cant find anything
||The infection hadn’t broken out yet, it was just the architects at the time. I feel like she meant it more in a thinking they permanently trapped her away sorta. Making some things more artificial than natural too maybe||
you need MK2. Entrances: One is right ||beside Pilot's base. Another deep purple vents, deep belo the tiny wreck (thrusters||). Drop a beacon when you enter
i need help
the game wont let me save
also i cant enter my base
even my original pod
yeah sorry this is a bug. If you saved recently, terminate the game (you cannot quit) and restart it.
In case this happens again, save often
You can try: let it save for 20 min
oh alright then, thank you!
Hi, I wanted to replay Below Zero after a long time, and I can't launch the game, it crashes when launched. By looking on reddit/steam, I saw that it was a problem that many people have, I tested several solutions, including launching in legacy build, nothing works. It's starting to annoy me, and I haven't found much besides the legacy build, updating the graphics drivers, checking the files as a solution. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm on steam, with a i5 10400F, rtx 3060, 32gb of ram. Thanks for the help.
did you ever have mods installed?
Nope
where during start does it crash?
A few seconds after launch, when the warning appears
this points to mods, or corrupt saves
are the saves important to you?
or screenshots, they are also in there
I don't care about my old save, would deleting it solve the problem? And if so, I no longer know how to remove a save from the Steam cloud
I'm not sure it would help. Try the least damaging repair: Open the app folder. Usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero
Is there a Bepinex folder here?
I've never installed any mods, so no
I'm just going to delete my saves, and then see what happens, it doesn't bother me
Delete the folder SubnauticaZero_Data
Now in steam, game properties, Installed Files, Verify integrity
when it's done, test
@slim obsidian
I try that
It didn't work, i'm gonna try deleting the saves
saves might be difficult as they are steam synced
if you are sitting in the main menu (which you can't), you can edit the saves freely
I deleted the saves, and deactivated the cloud, the game had no access to an old save (I also checked afterwards if the save had not returned in the files, and no) and that did not resolve the problem, so the cause must be something else :/
mm. There is a log file that should tell why it crashes
paste into a folder window address bar:
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero\
send the file Player (log file) here, or DM
yeah i know where to find it, but i didn't think of that x)
"Couldn't initialize steamwork"
I will try to restart, it will take time however Windows is installed on an HDD
np
It worked, sometimes the simplest solution are the best :')
Thanks! ^^
nice!
Guys, what if there was a giant frog Leviathan that hopped on the lily pads
I now have 4 ||ion power cells||
That would be cool but it seems like it wouldn’t have much purpose tbh
The lily pads would need items on them
Maybe a base
Yeah maybe
how to get stalker fur
and?
I will finaly get subnautica bellow zero on black friday (november 29)
cool
:DDD
i hope you dont get trauma from big wormy guy
ye
how to use him?
|| get the penguin robot and the remote, then deploy the robot and use the remote to grab the fur of the stalker thing ||
like i have the ||robot||
and where i can find ||fur?||
to grab it
|| On the fluffy stalker, just roll up to it with the robot and grab it ||
is it rare to find one?
Uh, I have absolutely no idea
cool thanks
np
well i am going on a trip
Okay
also some times i think you can see caves whit snow stalkers in it and theres a LOT of fur
No, they're all over the Glacial Basin and Arctic Spires
The caves with babies and fur lying around are in the Glacial Basin
Not rare at all
Can you send example on a map?
Go to Phi Robotics, the bridge will take you to Arctic Spires, going south will take you to the Basin
You can also go under the basin with your truck, through the eyejelly caves, to get to the lake in the middle of the basin
K
Btw i need help my frind is buying below zero can you send me an ss here to scare him? Pls
but he thinks it is
is it?
i think its scary for certain types of people
tbh the game triggers one of my phobias of beeing followed
when the ice worm is around
Did the shadow levithand evolved legs?
guys im in the ||body cache|| part like in what percentage am i into the game? (like 50% or 40% that kind of stuff)
just for curiosity
depends on whats you've done so far
oh ok thx and 1 more question
is there ANY totally free converter of youtube videos to mp3 so i can listen to other things besides dive deeper?
like do you use any?
awh
i just listen to it on spotify
all i could convert was 3 fricking musics and it said i reached the limit
tryhard ninja puts his stuff on spotify
ik but i dont want to have to leave the game just to change my music/playlist
oh wait
maybe i have more daily converters now

i dont 😭
nevermind
you uses the beepinator pingling bot
Beepinator I use it to play

is below zero worth getting
is best food the salad?
Yes, I think it's even too good
it's by far the best, no expire, 1 slot, best stats
i can make both the rescources at my base too
I just think that anything you can farm and craft in infinite amounts shouldn't be superior to nutrient blocks...
why not? nutrient blocks taste like packed sawdust
nutrient blocks only give 75 food salad give 85 food 100 heat and 30 water
and i like those stats
so im just gona be eating salalds from now on
they are a late game reward
also where can i find sleeper module parts
lipypads, higher level grass
alr thx
not entirely sure, maybe purple vent crevices
also is the recyclotron worth building
||I mean they wanted cure for themselves
When infection broke out they just left this dying planet
Al-An had opportunity to heal the last known infected specimen but didn't
I think Sea Emperor didn't wanted to help them because of their selfishness
I don't think they would release Sea Emperor after finding cure, but they would just leave everything as they've done after Kharaa outbreak||
Is it possible to scan Iceworms? I'm trying to scan all leviathans in Below Zero. (are Iceworms even leviathans?!)
There is a skeleton and a dead one you can scan. In the game code ice worm is an event and not a creature: it doesn't have hitbox and thus cannot be scanned (or attacked).
right. The dead one is top of the map, north-east, in the bone field
yes they are leviathans
I'll definitely check out these places. But real shame that they aren't scanable while they're alive
Hi 🙂
No updates for the last 1-2 years after "What the Dock" #announcements message
They have been working on the new game for a while now.
I feel like most people bypass them with the prawnsuit, they are rather annoying 😅
ah alr ill make a docking module for my seatruck and bring it with me
but first i need lead like always
Oh yeah, forgot about that
Always running out of lead 😄
Thanks, back to hibernation I guess
Hm, that's not how the story goes. They died on the planet. They tried killing every creature they were studying, but one escaped and led to the outbreak. The Emperor just couldn't communicate with them. There was no cure at the time they all died/got transfered to sanctuaries.
There was no selfishness, and no disease in the planet prior to them.
where can you find prawn suit grapple arm fragments?
I think sea monkey nests
ill check them out
i need to go to lily pads area anyway for magnetite
a sea monket just gave me magnetite, how sweet of him
i found my second fragments thanks
oh
i figured out that pengwings lay eggs
thats why my fps is so low
free power i guess
i got my fling tool for the arctic spikes aka the prawn suit grapple arm
If I were to keep a couple of penglings/pengwings in an aquarium. Can I name them?
chat I’m planning on getting this game next time it’s on sale is it good
yes
is pretty ok
Can anyone recommend me a good walkthrough of the game? With no radar to check ive got no clue what to do/where to go
w pfp
thx
you go in water swim for a bit u get a message go there and that will tell you what to do
you cant name but they lay eggs, free bioreactor power!!
I've had no issues with power so far. I have loads of solar panels. Shame you can't name them though
ok the prawn suit for actic spikes is op if u just jump and move forward u jump very far and im guessing it doenst attract ice worms when in the air
Guys I am building such a big base I cant even tell u a full large room is going to be my bedroom and there will be bathroom in it too so excited to build this in survival *gulp
Check Alterra facilities map - visit all of them
Do as Maida says - explore the areas around her bases
Any signals you may get are worth exploring around
Read the voice logs from Alterra for further hints
whats better to avoid ice worm ||prawn with grapling arm or snowfox?||
The former.
what
Prawn suit
you have bluepritns?
There's a special facility, in the deepest area of the map...no reason really to go there until you have all the three blueprints and materials for them all...
Should i buy below zero again I have nothing to do
I had nothing to do so i bought it and I don’t regret it i started yesterday and almost done with the game
So is your choice
||Is very interesting if you want to know what happened to 4564B after sub. After riley left||
thank youu
Hey there I just installed Below Zero i hope its fun

I loved both games. I do think the pacing and size of the first was better.
The tunnels systems in the second game are true fear if your bad at directions like me.
question, do i need to play Below Zero before I play Subnautica 2?
I do not think so but its cool too play it anyways
The unfinished version releases likely a year from now. I would play below zero while you wait
HY.Any tips where can i get the spiral plant pieces?
search on yt
its pretty hard to tell
If you haven't raided || the mercury || you can use the recyletron to get one
Go south from delta island until you find something big...
How do I find Crystal Caves?
I've legit accidentally stumbled back there so many times and just turned back around after seeing it lol.
Will do tho, thx
How do I get rebreather?
bruh i wish the stastis rifle was in below zero
It should be in the ||Twisty Bridges|| in a databox
Anyone have BZ leviathans positions map?
BZ Levi spawn locations
YESSIR!
Tysm;
Can u explain what lev in what place?
Like: Middle, Up right, Down left?
of course
like what types?
gimme like 15 minsw
Mhm ty
im in the middle of smth, but yes
Purple is Shadow Levi, Orange is Cheli, Blue is Ventgarden.
The Ice Worm doesn't have a location since it spawns in when it detects you and isn't a creature is terms of coding, but it's in the Arctic Spires.
Doesn't vent garden like reef back and don't need to be on map?
Ty btw
Of course!
Glow whale like reefback? Or vent garden is his replacement
Just idk
I'm not quite sure what you mean, Reefbacks are in SN, not BZ, and are different creatures.
If you're asking which one they're most similar to, I'd probably say Glow Whale, but again, they're totally different creatures.
I mean if reef backs and glow whales is not mentioned on map. Does it means they like same "kind" of creatures?
That ones who is passive leviathans but not mentions
Just I everytime though vent garden was some kind of not very nessecary creature
||not including his plant is needed for Al-An||
Ah, I believe Glow Whales are classified as leviathan, but like reefbacks, which are also levis, they're not on the map
Maybe because there's a lot? Maybe because they're not super unique, not sure.
How I know squid sharks too leviathans
Yea that's what I tried to say
I mean, it's a cool creature, that kind of wonder is a big part of SN and BZ
They're in this weird in between place
technically they're not, but I feel they should be
Doesn't PDA says they are?
I mean I heard in video guy said: "How PDA says squid sharks is relative but not developed leviathan kind creature"
Well understandable then
Still tysm for ur help
Of course, no problem
they died miserably 
once i visit marguerits home i disable the tower and come back to her or what?
Arctic peeper leviathan when @last mulch
soon 😉
already in the making
Anyone having the "no creatures/resources" issue?
This is a locked up state where you can't save, can't open doors, can't quit even. Hopefully it's rare.
Save often to live with this bug. For now, terminate the game
Do not save if you see the bug active
If you can quit, you have a different issue
I can quit :/
PC? steam?
Yes
write permission errors or full system drive
I've uninstalled/reinstalled, verified the files, changed what drive it was saved on
yes yes,. is the windows drive full?
No
free space?
706GB
Ok. This leaves the permission errors (Game uses this for temp storage: C:\ProgramData\Unknown Worlds)
Can you find the app folder? Usually it's
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero
or in a steam library
Found it
Properties on SubnauticaZero (exe)
Yup
Compat tab. Run this program as administrator. OK, test
restart BZ if it was open
OK. This was a workaround. You have permission errors in C:\ProgramData.
I don't want to scare but usually the cause for this is malware
Not sure about that
meaning, your user is not allowed to write in ProgramData\Unknown worlds\
Who can show me on BZ map where is
||frozen leviathan|| located?
I need it bc I'm reworking map
Here
not full map. Top is the bridge, right Delta
That's ain't explains much brother
Can u show on that kind of exm?
Ty
Okay I reworked BZ levs map. Same as first subnautica
BZ looks so good but if fr that's too small
oh no, you made tentacle shark a levi
Squid shark is leviathan
How PDA says squid shark is not developed but reliable and most weak leviathan class lifeforms in sector zero
||guys legit the crystal caves and fabricator caverns might be the most beautiful biomes in the came from the moment i saw the concept art for them they were like my most hyped biomes ok well mabey not most hyped but up there||
||one thing i would like to see tho is the biome with its original cream colored fog||
*game not came
How do I need to start the game?
I've met Margaret (idk how to spell her name) and now in stuck
Robin still needs to find her sister, go explore the scientific stations of Alterra
I found the ||Pi laboratory|| already
Now im stuck
I need some guiding
Oh, sorry, I thought you were only at the beginning. However, I am also stuck at this point in the game
The fact the concpet arts for below zero has the seamoth in it really makes me miss using it
I wish that i could help but as there's 3 story lines and as 2 of them are optional it's hard to situate your progression
||Chelicerates|| are overused i thought the ||shadow leviathan|| was gonna be in the void it fits tho
If you want to progress ||Margaret|| you have to explore ||wrecks||,if you want to progress Sam story|| you should look at the land||
@polar ridge
What
Aren't Margaret's quests just a part of the storyline with finding Sam, which is easy to miss?
They are closely linked but you can complete one without scratching the other
11 days before i get below zero :DDD
What's the best way to find technology? In SN1, there were tons of wracks. In BZ not.
There are wrecks, but they're made of base compartments, and other structures. They're all marked in the map.
Sea monkey nests too
Did you get the 2nd body part?
Is it normal, that the map-Mod does not name the biomes? In SN1 it did.
I dont even have ||AL-AN|| in my head
then get him 😭
Idk where I can find him bc I still dont have that waypoint
twisty bridges
its kinda obv.
Ok now gimme a map XD
Idk the biome names
Wanderning random places
|| the one with twisty like stuff ||
If you are talking about survival tools, look for them at Alterra Stations (||Delta was enough for me at least||), and those that are needed to move along the storyline are usually located in unique locations that you are unlikely to miss against the backdrop of the usual landscape
You can also just pick it up, but recyclotron works if you want to actually decraft it instead of carrying to another location
Ty
lol i found out if you hold a fish with prawn suit grapple arm you can skedaddle fast
can someone help me?
im after the greenhouse and i got a notify at the place where you get al-an into you fromsignal called "Source of the alien rescue signal" and there is nothing there?
is it just a bug?
how did you make the touch thing to see what he write?
||Placed words in straight brackets||
It isn't really a bug, there are just fail safes to make sure you don't miss ||Al-An||.
ah okay
ive litrely been searching for ages and yet i still cant find habitat builder fragments and i have no intention of doing a baseless run the problem is that the fragments are just too tiny and hard to see the mineral detector doesnt help either as it doesnt tell apart fragments and so far i have 0 builder fragments scanned 0 found
Got High capacity air?
just found the blueprints
yes? Then there's a builder just outside an Delta base door
problem wich omega door?
oh not omega. Delta
it's "missable" as you rush inside to check the base out. But it's outside
i am a moron
If my memory serves me correctly, a whole copy lies in a box near one of the buildings of the Delta station
i just went there and now i have to go back
there's another right by High capacity o2. You need just one
if you miss that one, you are careless. tiny base, not much in it
i am a toatal moron
probably not
i need some optomizations i started it again and i can hardly load the title screen
Its prob already been modded back in
no it has not i checked
There is still a seamoth model in the game, but there is one “but” when using it as a vehicle
Yes, but less than in the oldest versions of BZ
o
well i stilll need a way to optmize below zero as i can hardly even load the title screen!
the menu?
note, an SSD is highly recommended, both as system drive and for BZ
yes. Put a beacon at the entrance
the answer: Yes
thanks
what kind? Yes
The ideal vehicle here is truck with perimeter defense
i found a perimter
do i leave my attachments at entrance?
my modules
i got 4 equipped
but i also got afterburner with horsepower
||and ion power cells||
modules? Maybe reduce to 2, to get full speed. Not important
sleeper module fabricator storage and prawn suit
oh with horespower you can have 3 modules and full speed
sleeper gone right?
sure
its no use 500+ meters down
or bring it, speed isn't awful
just be ready with peri defense. Fire on attack, not before
will he skedaddle after defense?
oh yes
of course
really big fish = leviathan. No face. Remember noface in Spirited away?
oh you must. On my top movie list
he is about to eat me
is this a reaper in disguise and he just wants a snack?
did only 2 dmg
less then i expected
alr time to skedaddle back in the ||crystal cave|| after escaping death
do i use my f3 cheats?
to get rid of the fog
pay attention if alan speaks down here
leme see wiki
75 dmg player\
luckily i got like 7 medkits in my seatruck
ok seems like ||kyanite|| is rare
only found 1 piece so far and i need 5
it's not very
its nor rare more like uncommon
need 1 more piece and i can skedaddle
al-an has been giving me the silent treatment so far
i found my last piece but he is right outside lurking
i just zapped him is there any kind of attack delay?
i juked him
time to skedaddle outa here
also where can you find nickel
Do the vehicle's energy cells refill in the drydock?
seatruck dock u mean?
or moonpool?
cuz in both they recharge
i dont think if ur prawn suit is on the back of the seatruck and ur in seatruck dock it recharges
Monopool
it recharges both seatruck and prawn
Great 🙂
with seatruck it needs to have no compartments tho
time to finish below zero :D
i deployed 2 snowfoxes
they both got stuck in the ground bruh
im building my third snowfox here
try this: when dropping it, look up
im finna have a blast playing bz
just finished the first one
cant wait till i get it ng l
It’s so good!
Fr playing it blind is the best but it makes it scarier (which then makes it better 😭)
i already did, but i forgot most of the parts almost everything since it was 2 or 3 years ago
played the first one blind, basically the story was blind for me and not the safe shallows part finding the things i needed, it was horrifying and fantastic, im still speechless
The ending was so good wasn’t it!!
The speech given made me cry first time ⟟ heard it cos I’d fully grown up waiting to be able to get the game
⟟ remember watching it getting made and everything 
Like the one in the rocket
So good.
Bz is amazing tho
The planet feels much more like
Lively and lived from the PDAs in (that’s all ⟟ can think to say without spoilers)
yeah, since december and new years is close, i will make sure to finish bz in the real time snow also and it will feel amazing
That’s such ⏃ good idea ⟟ gotta do that!!!!
I’ve been re-playing sn1 atm but occasionally swapping to bz
You will honestly. Make sure to just search everywhereeeee
You’ll find the coolest creepiest creatures
is bz's lore also based on going deeper or just following dpas?
What do you mean by that?
how do u get driven by the story
Hmm idk how to say without spoiling it 😔😔
or learn the lore of the game, by exploring everything and finishing it in the end or? following the dpa
You’ll get PDAs to help
And other things will be very clear pointers
It’s quite good
You can do either honestly that’s what makes it such ⏃ good game
ah thats great, since the first one basically left me alone after the sunbeam
and i just had to come up with smth and find lore
If you want to focus on just following story and only exploring what you need to you can
But if not you’ll come across everything by while exploring everything and maybe find things you would have missed otherwise
In my first play though ⟟ missed so much stuff just following story so try to explore ⏃ lot too!!!!
yeah will basically do both, full explore and follow the story
You will fr
Anytime! Have fun playing 
since it will help me in the journey
yeah, after maybe 8 to 10 days i will start playing so thank u for the info
After 1 hour of searching I found the underwater area
Also what direction is the ||lilypad island||
Nvm
I was lied to
a biome
and also it's called|| lilypad islands||
and also it's pretty self-explanatory
Nah really
Lol
Can you help with this, because I was lied to
I found it
bro you can just use scissors tool to make screenshots
Oh I can now really?
What is the problem?
oh wait💀
It shows walls in there but when I try it doesn't work
i don't really understand the problem, what you want to do
oh inside walls. Only large room can have them
I think the name of the inside wall is even "large room partition"
Yeah I randomly type Spawn Seamoth to see if it works
In the available beta versions of BZ I had a chance to test the command "||spawn reaperleviathan||". The result did not disappointed me.
So does the reaper in game? (Beta i mean)
Or just the same results as the seamoth a white light
I have the below zero disc but it's scratched so I can't play it I'm gonna freak out
ive been searching for ages and zero gold ive used the materiel scanner and zero calvanite outcrops ive searched evreywhere and there is still nothing i crafted a rebreather just now and plan to explore the crystal caves without a seatruck or prawn due to no gold (i have no intention of this being a baseless run)
Try searching kelp forest caves or thermal spires crevises. There's also one cave in Delta island which is full of calaverite outcrops
And of course the 'speedrunners cave' slighlty west from the spot you first go into water at the start of the game...gold, silver and copper in ore veins
first i cant find any good kelp forest caves second i cant find any of those crevises and i didnt know to look on the delta island
Once you go up top of Delta to where the living quarters camp is, you follow the back stairway down (it’s behind the living quarters) which leads into a series of caves where there’s lots of the rocks that can break for gold. Easy to access and obtain early on
i alreadywent there
Then you should have plenty of gold
I don't get why people are mad at DLC being nominated for GOTY
I think Below Zero is eligible for GOTY if thats the case
for legal reason, this is a joke
Does anyone know where this is? Ive just bought the game and these screenshots came from 2021. No beacon so im truly lost ngl
Looks like north twisty bridges, close to the lifepod. Not an ideal location, it's too north from the action
I know i got a second base but its been 3 years so im trying to find my old stuff
Whats the best bioreactor fuel
best: root pustules. They do not respawn.
Most useful to me: fevered pepper fruit
can grow in a pot next to reactor
Seems like the place where my base is, look in a 50m - 200m radius from your drop pod, should be really close
Alr thx
Guys, guys, guys! Which direction I have to go to find ||AL-AN||? (look from lifepod)
south, or south-west, the canyon, depth 150
Thx
Man it to cold here
Average day in Canada
Real
it even snowed last night for me
Are there similiar and same good games like Below Zero and SN1?
Yes. This is a common reddit topic, here for example
https://www.reddit.com/r/subnautica/comments/14km6ak/games_similar_to_subnautica/
Oh! Thank you! Breathedge looks promising!
space chicken game
I'd like to add Sable, but it does have sand instead of water
all depends why you like the game. For chill exploring, Sable fits
one game copied SN's scan+crafting ideas a lot, it is Forever skies
Raw Fury <3
Taken on my list.
Sable also taken notice of.
The music box is such a great feature of BZ :----------)
guys can someone tell me how far im done i just got to where ||i meet Margaret on the iceberg|| and if there r any tips please do tell me
That’s a completely optional part of the game so we can’t really tell
really
i thought that part was manditory
well its after i disabled the satelite does that help?
excuse canned reply:
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||
Optional
tbh i dont really get the story about robin is it just finding what happens to her sister and thats it?
Whole Marge and Sam story line is optional
at this point im questioning if the game even has a main story
the main story goal changes as you crash land
Get off the planet. But after you find out about Sam
cuz at one point i crafted all the main stuff so im like what do i do now
then i found out i can disable the satelite
and get to the greenhouse
is progressing just exploring and running into stuff on ur way through or something
oh and there is one alien signal i cant find an entrance to
its next to the area where u find lead llithium and diamonds that go to 400 to 500 meters deep im pretty sure
it has a name
sry itsy first time playing and the map is very confusing
Q59 inside Koppa Mining Site
Another difficult to find:
X3J Deep in a north-east kelp cave
note: for these green beacons, turn them off or change color when you visit. Don't leave it to the game, it fails here
i think its the twisty bridges
I meant named artifact beacons (signals)
yh its this one im pretty sure
it's like directly under the island. Enter via the mine door, south-west of delta shore. depth 150
well thx for ur time
You should be relatively close to the end of the game.
i havent even played the game for 5 hours and im already almost done?
Not super close mind you, I'm not sure what the criteria is for meeting her there
In that case you're probably farther away then I thought.
well i can tell you what i did
Not sure what else you've done.
ive gotten the seatruck and the fabricator and storage module with depth upgrade mk2
thats something i did
you accidentally run into her as she drops with her prawn suit and then go to where she was last spotted she tells you to disable the satellite for her then she rewards you with a pda abt ur lost sister
tbh the game has no direction or thats what im feeling so far
so you probably still have quite a way to go
you just go by ureslf
this is what chatgpt had to say lol
shou ld i read "whats next?"
no
ok if u say so
but yeah evrythinng that is stated is true
i have a quick question is it posible that the game is glitched and the signal isnt where its supposed to be?
unlikely, but what signal
Alien distress signal?
Q59
so i went to the mine but i explored it fully and i didnt find a way to the signal
A 3hr message gap is insane... is BZ this much less popular/played?
Is Q59 the one in Koppa?
Isn't that the one on the left tunnel, where the cave kinda splits off?
Yeah i'm thinking of this one too
Idk artifact codes bc... well, I'm new and wanna speedrun. But if that's it, that's where to access.
at which part of the story should u visit phi robotics? right after delta island?
yes but i think there is a door in the way that i dont know how to open if you can open it
No there's no door in the way
There's 2 way in koppa
One way is in a hole,the second is in a cave
If you go through the hole,you go down a big elevator,then there's a small place with prawns
There is a tunnel that then separate in two
One that leads in a cave where the second way in is, behind a net and the second leads to the signal
At any moment in the story when you want to explore land
why do ppl call sam paranoid about alterra mutating Kharaa like natural selection 2 shows use the after math of mutaing Kharaa
well i cant seem to find it
wait is the lost signal an artifact or smth else
Guhhh
I'm thinking building my base between the purple Vents and thermal things
It's like much to Guess but the Omega lab scientists think that they know what they are doing and they have all under control based on their pdas. Also they think they can achieve really good thing for humanity (never explained wich good things i think)
And lastly while it's clear Alterra learned of kharaa from Riley, i higly doubt they shared the info Riley knew and how kharaa almost destroyed the architects with the below zero crew, so they maybe just don't know kharaa is THAT bad
does the repulsion canon not exist in below zero ?
No it doesn't
damn bro
not only they took the stasis rifle from us but also that?
only weapon we got left is the fire knife
It's not really necessary, the levis are even more avoidable.
Perimeter Defense nullifies all but one of them, and that one can be nullified with thumpers or outrun.
well that's if you don't consider the squidsharks as leviathans
They're not
That's one thing in both Subnautica games: most stuff you can do at your own pace and in the order you choose (and many things are optional for completing the game). I think when you scan the Alterra facilities map in Delta station, Robin mentions that it will help to find Phi where Sam worked, but I guess most players go there later and not right after.
my point is it doesn't matter what title they hold, they're pretty common and dangerous
but like you said the game is still very easy so it's not that big of a deal
Doesn't perimeter defence make them release as well?
Or are they immune to electric attacks?
It's a scannable|| statue||
ok so i found it
for some reason im not sure if it is a glitch or mnot the actual signal is 340 m away from the actual statue
guys it feels like i reached a point where i did everything story related can someone tell me what to do?
In NS2, Kharaa is completely different, and in BZ Alterra ||loses all the access to the disease, so they might be unrelated.||
||As for Sam, she had no proof of anything, and she went really far and beyond. Blowing up the lab, curing the specimen, then sealing the cave, it was a plan alright, but she's taking Alterra as a cartoonish villain, something that the other workers don't believe in.||
||Alterra is shown to be a very informal company, that provides everything to its workers. Employees have everything handed to them, they're treated like children and kind of act as such (Ozzy worried about the 0-G gym, Alterra HQ call, everything about Fred). The higher ups, however, feel like power corrupted them, they're emotionless (or fake emotion) to get what they want, like Manu being friendly but asking Fred to stop helping colleagues or spending time with them (likely so the Frostpack has better performance, he cares a lot about performance), or Wilson ditching Elheim because she doesn't benefit her as much as a guy from the Prawn Bay. Still, everyone gets everything they need, there's no life like Alterran life, and only outside people seem to distrust them.||
TL;DR: ||Only Sam and Robin think Alterra is evil, because the company has only done good things to its workers (as far as we know). Sam is the odd one in the Frostpack, so she seems paranoid.||
Important to note that at the end we learn ||Alterra doesn't see Sam as an antagonist, or even suspect she had anything against them, so they marked it as negligence. If they knew the lab being blown up was tied to her, and that it was used as a distraction so she could do her things in Phi, she'd probably be accused of terrorism||
I really love BZ's story, and how deep it goes, exploring the gray morality of both sides
hey i have a question whats the first thing that i have to do to start the main story im 99% sure i havent even started it yet
is it normal for the seaglide to take 1% power evrey 50 meters? as if it is im trying my best to get the ion batterys i need the gel sack and i have been unable to find any of them i just need one to use my knife on and yet nothing i want my ion powercells
this one
Just go to the points that you see on radar
Like on hud
ive been to all
Do you have ||Al an|| yet
Ok then make sure to go to all underwater points of interest
find a distress call in twisty bridges. very important
Yeh
thats the one that i cant find
you said that its the one in the mines
Flashy pillars go SOS
then by now, it has a signal. You were told many times the one we gave directions to is Q59. This is not it.
There should be a marker
oh im very sorry
you replied with confusion
It is?
So. this one is called distress something. 180m down in twisty bridges canyon, you find blinky lights. Follow them into a side cave, not far. You don't need a truck, lots of o2 plants here
i do have an aliean distriss signal near right inbetween the twisty bridges and the mines
but i cant seem to find the cave even tho ive searched the whol area
Don't go for the signal now, find the blinky lights in the canyon
i guess im very blind
entrance at 180m
imma play in 2 hrs i will try again
And when you ask for help here, Be ingame
i love how i have literally all the modules and and depth upgrades yet i havent progressed in the story itself
i usually ask before since by the time i get a reply id be playing sorry
yes. Game doesn't hold your hand a lot. Some
can i shoot u a private message once im playing?
no just tag me here
ok
then others can help too
Is technology in BZ lying on the ground grouped? I mean: When I find something for the truck, will similiar peaces will always be nearby?
depends what it is. There are a lot of seatruck around delta
Fred is sorry about those, but there were "scary monsters"
Scan every monkey nest
When my prawn has no depth module installed, but is attached to the truck-Module for it, will it suffer damage, when I go below its max depth tolerance?
Isn't it confirmed tgar NS and sub take place in the same universe
Yes, but NS2 is still in the far future
can anyone help me find gel sacks?
Have you checked the yellow place with purple vents?
Check deeper. Also they are in deep twisty below 300m
alright
I want this really bad
im playing now
should i use the seatruck and go with or without the modules
will we be able to have regular sn creatures in bz's experimental branch? cuz i want to see a reaper battle a chelicerate...
or maybe a sea dragon vs a shadow leviathan...
It’s a mod
Perchance but not likely
How does the coffee machine work? It is always empty. In Subnautica 1 it produced coffee out of nothing.
You need to put thermos in it (and thermos needs to be crafted in fabricator)
Videogame logic, don't question it.
what am I supposed to do after ||gaining access to the greenhouse||? story-wise
below zero better then subnautica 1?
I’m my opinion nah
then i’ll get subnautica 1
Both r good tho but I prefer subnautica 1
Continue what you were doing before...the main goal is to craft a new 'storage medium'
I heard I need to ||build a bridge|| or something but I can’t figure out where, I already got the mk2 depth upgrade for both the seatruck and the prawn suit
Go find new land west of delta, Find the dock and the bridge bit north from there.
Did you scan Alterra facilities map at Delta Station? Try to find all the bases marked there
guys do yall know Bartholomy?
is it possible for other sections of the seatruck to get damaged?
like not just the cab unit
no
Depends on what you're considering.
Story wise, imo no, biomes and creatures, yes
Hi
Hola
What is this and is it friendly
Squidshark, it's a large hostile creature, it also has an EMP attack.
Ok thank you
of course!
And no mods
what did you use for o2? or did you just swim there
?? That has onetoo?? I thought it's only crabsquid
It does
One time i lost 4 hours of progress on creative on below zero
is it possible to put a depleted fuel rod in the recyclotron
first snow... now i want to play it yet again
It shouldn't be
even batteries have to be fully charged
Wait its can EMP?
or shock you
So its like a Crabsquid cousin or smth
imobilize you yeah
it just has a similar survival technique
doesn't mean it's related
Both of them is half squid
Real
Crab bc of its legs
i think he means how crab is only 4 letters and squid is 5
also i saw that it was explained but EMP is short for electromagnetic pulse
will below zero go on sale on the autumn sale
Ik what EMP means
Its on sale on xbox
you asked
I didnt
I asked Sharksquid can emp?
And i got the answer
Which is yes
DepthPig told me
i play on steam
Are there no big lead deposits in BZ? Like the big nodes for the prawn suits?
No.
does anyone know why they named the mining site with an archaic greek letter, as opposed to regular greek letters for the rest?
theory: US fraternities still use the old greek alphabet
anyone know the route to the second arcitect artifact?
they do not have numbers
wat
translation: which one
the one after you get alan in ur head
artifact 0j7 or something like that
scratch that it was Q59
anyone here know the route to artifact Q59
Q59 is inside Koppa Mining Site
entrance south-west of delta shore, not far, depth 150
Big white door
i dont know where delta shore is? im assuming its the delta island
||How many sea truck upgrades are there (not big pieces) and what are the good ones. Please||
I'm just wondering because I want to add more speed and I don't know what the fourth one is
There is only 4: depth, perimeter defence, afterburner (temporary speed boost) and horsepower (extra modules reduce speed less)
Horsepower starts to have effect when you have 3 or more modules
me pasently waiting for BZ 2
I have all modules except the spoiler one which I won't say. Is it worth having two and does the defence one work well?
Basically what do people recommend
My truck is large and in charge
Perimeter defence basically turns all threats into minor annoyance, as it cancels all grab attacks if timed correctly
No way. Ok I need that one then
Does anyone know a good map mod for BZ that maps the dungeons too like in Subnautica 1?
How do I use it?
You select it from the toolbar and tap when attacked to cancel the attack. If you keep the button down you can charge a more powerful zap (at the cost of more power used).
Oh I see thank you
Can Sea Monkeys gift me nickel?
yes
you tell them what you need via pins
Thank you for the advice.
very good. Exploring is required even
and there is much to find
Does anyone know how to find magnetite?
jellyshroom caves
In BZ
One time I was playing BZ, and there was a sea monkey floating in place
It was also spinning
is it me or is the below zero soundtrack so much better than the original
especially the late-game tracks. the music captures both the beauty and terror of those biomes
How do I get spiral plant clippings
guys i have all 13 achievments except one which is jukebox hero and the problem is i dont have the jukebox blueprint (im on xbox) is there a way to get the blueprint
I found them in the ||vent gardens|| I had to go up inside a ||jellyfish looking plant|| with plants growing inside it to get the spiral clipping though.
Thank you
i legit have no idea how youre supposed to find them normally
its tremendously specific
I found them growing exactly in the ||vent garden||
no amount of good ol "exploring" leads you up into that thing
oh i know where they are
its just that youll never actually find them yourself
Right :)
unless youre either really lucky or have 3rd party help
i had to use the wiki
its not bad game design, but it isnt good
all in my opinion
Oh I understand.
if there is a bz 2 i hope to god there isnt as much voicelines n stuff
takes the immersion out yk
im hoping we get more robin and al-an so im kinda hoping for voice lines
Few people know this, but there are spiral plants to be found ^outside^ the ||vent garden||.
Go east from Delta station dock, follow the ground downward. They’re middling deep, but they’re there.
I put a beacon at a ||vent garden|| that I found incase I need spiral plants again
deep lilypad caves
Thx
also wikipedia is saying that you can find it in|| west andeast arctic, glacial basin, Glacial connection and crystal caves|| but I am not 100% sure about all of these biomes
Okay
Also sea monkeys with appropriate recipe pinned
Found all my magnetites either from monkeys or in ||crystal caves||
i found most of my maginite in the glacial basin west artic cave and deep lilypad
I don't know if the sea monkeys from lilypads can give you magnetite though
(i tried and they didn't gave me one,so either really unlucky or they can't)
i think its too deep bc the only place ive found it was in the deep lilypad caves and seamonkeys don spawn there
Sea monkeys don't search for the materials,it just spawn in their hand if you have the recipe pinged
Certain materials are given only by sea monkeys of certain zones
For example, don't try to get ruby from kelp sea monkey
really ???
You can get magnetite if it's pinned.
Even from the lilypads ones?
For the pinned recipes, the biome restriction is for ruby and nickel, which can only be given in the Lilypads biome.
So yes.
Well,i'll be damned
I was really unlucky then
Cause i had the recipe pinned and out of 5 gifts,none was magnetite(i had only this one pinned and none on me)
There are three cases in the way they're functioning.
- The default gifts if they aren't in their respective biomes. For instance if you release a seamonkey and don't have a pinned recipe.
- They are in a biome they know, like Arctic Kelp Forest, the caves, Lilypads Crevices. In this case they'll give you things specific to the biome, like creepvine seeds or root pustules.
- The pinned ingredients, which is a separate list, with restrictions for ruby and nickel as I mentioned in Lilypads.
i get so frustrated when i see youtubers leave ||maida's base|| without the seatruck defense upgrade
That's what I did in my playthroughs too. I don't like this upgrade, it's too overpowered. You zap once and the two leviathans release you instantly.
Only thing balancing it is you can’t put it on prawnsuit
It just wants you to know what’s on his mind
I got burgers on my mind...
😋
oh wait
I posted it not to correct chat
sorry
what can i do in bz after playing it trough
Cure the ||frozen creature||. Hatch eggs. Find and hatch Trivalve. Build the best base evar. Find all the music tracks.
Explore Custom game mode, below Creative in the list (Or convert your game, Options). Play around with commands (see wiki).
On steam, you can still play the old story. Enter beta code belowzeroearlyaccess then run version EA 8.
