You need it to make the repair tool?

#

In caves on land, by the tower

Mixed the names up

#

Mkay I don’t know where the tower is yet so for now ima look in caves in the coral bridge area

#

It's not underwater, the sukfer won't spawn there

#

Oh

#

Yeah looked at a map

#

I can try to find rocket island

#

I mean delta island

#

Whatever it’s called

#

I'm not talking bad I just wanna know, why does below zero have so many bugs. Compared to Subnautica, falling threw the map and getting stuck, at least in Subnautica you get teleported back

shadow condor
#

I haven't encountered any bugs in my playthrough personally

Cryptosuchus were scary ASF when i started playing bruh

||Until i realized ramming the seatruck into them one shots them..||

i got a problem
sometimes when i try to close my locker, the game crashes, this time, i have not placed any table coral this time,
if i placed magnetite in a locker, do my game crashes too?
also before yesterday steam tells me that the game cannot sync or something, now it tells me to where i want to place my game data download to, cloud or pc storage.

anyone want to play with me dm me

nova fable
eternal garnet
#

then I do not know. Any mods?

nova fable
#

io have some yeah just not mods that help me beat the game any easier

eternal garnet
#

sorry I suspect those. Also there's a related bug. When dropping the bike, look up

#

else it may drop thru the floor. Late unfixed bug

nova fable
#

the mod just off the screen was auto save

eternal garnet
#

I don't know which. Disable half, test

halcyon olive
#

@eternal garnet check out what I made for S2

eternal garnet
#

then do the other half

halcyon olive
#

other half?

eternal garnet
#

to find a bad mod, disable one half, test, swap, test, halve the list with the issue

halcyon olive
#

oh ok

#

check out what I made in S2 in the S2 chat

#

*for S2

eternal garnet
#

personally I suspect bepinex tweaks, just because it has several modifications

GUYS

#

IM SIGMA

#

i scanned this little idiot crashfish

eternal garnet
stable needle
#

guys

#

I have never played below zero. I have only played the original, so how is below zero related to the original? someone said to me it takes place on the same plane by a different protagonist after the events of the first game. Can anyone tell me more about it?

torn mountain
#

yes

#

the different protagnist is robin

#

she is not a mute

stable needle
#

oh damn

torn mountain
#

she is riley's which is the first protagnist in the first game

#

she is rileys brother

#

she lands on a diff alien planet its 4546B but its below zero (as you'd imagine)

#

her name is robin

stable needle
#

?

eternal garnet
#

I have never heard that suggested. I think not

torn mountain
#

the first protagnist and the one in below zero are siblings

eternal garnet
#

They have the wrong last names

torn mountain
#

riley is the first protagnist

#

robin the sister is the second protagnist

eternal garnet
#

Ryley Robinson. Robin Ayou

#

and she is not married

torn mountain
#

she crash landed there to i think find out like the remains of what is left on the planet?

eternal garnet
#

you're confused. Robin is not related to Ryley.
She came here to find out about her sister Samantha (Sam)

torn mountain
#

yes correct

#

but your incorrect about to realted to eachother

eternal garnet
#

There are a few common plot bits, but not a lot

torn mountain
#

related

eternal garnet
#

ok, prove your claim

torn mountain
#

youtube told me that they were brother and sisters

eternal garnet
#

It's not in the wiki, so therefore it's not real lol

torn mountain
#

kx,xkjm,,x,

i will fireball you if you prove me wrong again

#

Any tips for start below zero? I bought the game but i'm completely lost, idk what to do😭

eternal garnet
#

Save often. Always carry a beacon. Make the air bladder. Explore. This drives your game forward. Find a distress call. Sea monkey stealing? Press E, or at least swap away your seaglide, then chase

How did the ||Mercury II get shot by the gun if it was so far away?||

Odd
Maybe the heat source can only give out so much heat?

Or it’s just in a weird angle

I know there’s two heat sources in the glacial connection,
They both look the exact same
One gives 70C
The other gives 0C

if green display that is full output, I think

A shortcut portal to Phi, music discs

one question
What is the area that Marguerite talks about when she goes to her greenhouse?

eternal garnet

she talks about ||omega and frozen creature cave. She picks omega to do herself||

hard igloo
#

But should I go there? or is it just history

eternal garnet
#

yes, both

#

Although, it's not required to finish

Is there anything interesting?

eternal garnet
#

oh yes

#

so in the crater the primary [[or rather ONLY]] species of stalker is a purely water based animal am i correct. as in they only live in water. then in sector 0 the species of stalker lives on land. was it stated in game how the snow stalker evolved to live mostly on land.

#

or has it not.

#

specifically what i mean is did they just pull a reverse of what whales on earth did.

#

as in slowly evolve to be on land rather than slowly evolve to be in water.

#

im guessing snow stalkers pulled a reverse of whales.

#

thats just what i assume so it could be wrong.

#

Guys a question, what is the best place to make a base in subnautica below zero? Type the biome and cords or recommendations

abstract panther
#

is there any way to check if my base would crush on creative?

abstract panther
abstract panther
#

just say what you would like near your base

wheat swallow
abstract panther
#

i mostly use nuclear or bio reactors for energy

#

it also depends if you wanna be minimalistic or creative with your base

#

by that i mean if you want just the bare minimum to complete the game or build fancy stuff

wheat swallow
wheat swallow
abstract panther
#

what i could recommend with that is the edges of coral bridges if you like it safe or around delta island cause they have the thermal vents and they can give you thermal energy

#

there's a leviathan near delta island though, i don't remember where exactly but he's somewhere there

#

behind it iirc

There is no lava zone in this game.

Oh really

carmine bobcat
#

I just finished Subnautica haha

glossy brook

Makes sense

#

Anyways uh

#

Tbh Is subnautica bz even worth it?

bold monolith

One way to find out. Just have a countdown nearby and you'll be able to refund if you don't like it.

glossy brook

I prefer SN1.

#

BZ is prettier.

#

Subnautica 1 is by far the best game ive bought

It's kind of the same graphics but the biomes, the shaders, etc are nicer.

I will watch a video of the game

And see if I like it and then i will try to give my opinion on it

#

Tbh subnautica 1 had only 1 issue to me

Hey guys, just a question with no spoilers on the reply please, i have 3 hours on a world and struggling what to do, on average for a first save through player on below zero, how long on average would it take to complete?

bold monolith
rigid rivet
#

i did cheat a bit at the end though because i wasnt bothered to collect resources so that did shave a couple hours off it

severe hornet
#

alright thank you, i’ve been subnautica a couple times with maybe a hundred hours on one world but just need motivation to play below zero 😂

bold monolith
#

The above website is pretty accurate for a lot of games.

rigid rivet
#

is that like an average of all of them or

bold monolith
#

Yes.

#

Average of the three categories above it.

Am I the only person who likes below zero more than og subnautica?

Subnautica has better storytelling and more of a map to explore but I like BZ's soundtrack and more building options and alan is kinda funny

Yeah, i’m 3 hours in

It’s not a bad map, just not a reason to go to a lot of biomes other than “ok i went there”

A beacon will pop up and go

I find the story kinda mid cause it doesn’t tie the two plot lines together it just kinda exists

Map is cool tho

how do i|| get past the shadow leviathian in the purple crystal caves?||

vast jay

They can’t even reach most of the crevices

i tried to run past it with my seautruck but it attacked me

#

do i stay to the edges?

steel stream
#

If you're in seatruck, use perimeter defence on attack and then proceed forward

weak compass
#

okay i'll try that

steel stream
#

If timed correctly, the attack is cancelled with no damage

vast jay
#

Did you find the free upgrade for the sea truck?

steel stream
#

(Too early though, and the defence has no effect...better little late to take little damage)

weak compass
#

oh ok, i did not find the free upgrade i made it myself

#

hope i dont get eaten now

vast jay
#

Ok

How did you get the blueprint without finding the free upgrade?

Getting polyethylene

So when i play for a decent amount of time the game crashes my entire pc? What is up. Im on the xbox game pass version of the game

eternal garnet
tawdry musk
#

Yea but i play way more intensive games for even longer periods of time and dont have that issue, but ill try cleaning it. But this is the only game ive had that problem

eternal garnet
#

vertical sync is also a FPS cap, to the screen refresh rate

#

if it's not heat, it's difficult to diagnose

tawdry musk
#

My fps was capped to a rate lower than my monitor refresh rate

eternal garnet
#

but I can say this is not a common issue. (Well heat is)

#

if you install HWmonitor and keep it open, it will record max temps. Check it after a while, but before crash

#

I'm going off, but back tomorrow

tawdry musk
#

Is there a way to make the game auto save more frequently

#

Bc i just lost a shizz ton of progress again

eternal garnet
#

it never ever auto saves. There is a mod to do this

#

You should save 4 times an hour

tawdry musk
#

Brother its hard to pay attention to the time when you get really into it

eternal garnet
#

yes. What I do is, analog clock, I glance at it and ask, have I saved in this quarter?

The seatruck is truly one of the submarines of all time

sweet elk
#

it is

chilly pumice
#

sea truckin ain't so bad once you get into it, but it is fun watching streamer's hopes and dreams die when they first build it and it's a dinky little thing 😂

sweet elk
#

it's got a fat forehead

#

that's really the only downside it gets stuck on everything cause it's tall and not long like the seamoth

chilly pumice
#

I hope Subnautica 2 will have vehicles similar to all of the ones between the 2 games

chilly pumice
#

tbh i love the sea truck too, i just wish i had access to all the vehicles as well

Just got the game guys

Wish me luck

While it does have a lot more, once you beat it there aren't any time capsules for you to spend extra hours on.

#

But base building is much better.

winter quest
#

Anyone know if there is a limit for the efficiency of a thermal reactor? Like there are places with 100°C but does it do better than 70°?

bold monolith
#

Do you speak about a thermal plant or the Prawn Suit upgrade? If you're talking about the Prawn Suit upgrade the maximum is 60°C. Above that it's the same.

Guys, i bought BZ and tried to play it. When i jumped in the water i felt like someone threw a goddamn flashbang of blurry pixelated textures and pure brightness in my eyes! And damn, player camera seems waaaay to high and far away from character's arms. Those animations I've seen are terrible in my opinion. I didn't like it from the start. Should i force myself into playing it for the plot? Is it good enough to close my eyes on those bad things?

I've no clue what those issues you say are

#

is it visibly bugged? screenshot please

#

Are you on a mac?

gilded totem

#

carmine bobcat
#

i dont see your issue?

eternal garnet
#

same.

#

chat, does anyone else see an issue?

carmine bobcat
#

have you capped the graphics setting in the menu ?

#

could be your system auto detected the graphics

gilded totem
carmine bobcat
#

theres mods to improve the graphics if you dont like vanilla

eternal garnet
#

ice is blurry and white. Just look elsewhere

gilded totem
eternal garnet
#

it looks quite accurate actually

#

ice is white. Sun is up. What do you expect

carmine bobcat
#

well youre underwater at night, under ice

#

it does get dark

#

i mean when its get dark

#

not in that screenshot

eternal garnet
#

"Ice too bright, couldn't play game". Fine, be like that

gilded totem
#

It hurts my eyes

#

I can't...

eternal garnet
#

i'll agree the kelp looks a little odd

gilded totem
#

This is wrong...

eternal garnet
#

don't use filmic mode, it's very dark

gilded totem
eternal garnet
#

and once you get the seaglide, not so dark. Or the flashlight (not terribly useful)

#

Filmic mode is a color setting somewhere

gilded totem
eternal garnet
#

ok. I avoid it, so I didn't notice

gilded totem
eternal garnet
#

contrast too high, you mean

carmine bobcat
#

if you dont like the look of the game i wouldn't play it, i get it its a bit weird looking

#

its just the art style i think, personally i like it

#

that sounded rude im sorry, that wasnt my intention

gilded totem
#

Graphics are set at max

#

I don't know what is wrong

#

And that contrast...

steel shoal
#

Below Zero has much better graphics

carmine bobcat
#

did you check drivers?

steel shoal
#

Check the resolution.

#

Lower resolution means less pixels

carmine bobcat
gilded totem
eternal garnet
#

your screenshots do not show this

#

also, you're no fun anymore

carmine bobcat

#

Anyway my question was about forcing myself into playing it for the plot... Should i do it?...

eternal garnet
#

you are asking fans, so you get Yes

carmine bobcat
#

probs not you seem like you dont enjoy it

#

no point in forcing yourself to play it

steel shoal
eternal garnet
carmine bobcat
steel shoal
#

The image you first sent was very clearly on low graphics. The game is brighter, more vibrant, but also has increased graphics. The lighting is also much better, with beautiful skies (especially at night)

eternal garnet
#

yes

steel shoal
eternal garnet

The night sky and Auroras are beautiful

no I think it's just ice. it has no detail

It's more geometric than I remember it when I played

sweet elk
#

how do I get to N6M? I js can't find the cave

eternal garnet
#

Artifact N6M Ground sampler, under south vent garden

#

So, under the giant jellyfish that you might be able to go inside btw.

carmine bobcat
#

this is a good guide

eternal garnet
#

such spoiler

steel shoal
#

That's not it

carmine bobcat
#

oh sorry mustve clicked the wron thing

#

oh shoot

steel shoal
#

Deleted because untagged spoiler

carmine bobcat
steel shoal
#

All good

steel shoal
#

The way it works is that it chooses a lower quality (which loads faster) and it is replaced by a higher one, and it keeps doing that until it replaces it with the quality you've selected in the settings.

#

A better machine will load it in almost instantly. Weak/slower machines take long

eternal garnet
#

when you move, the world is constantly loaded in, fairly slowly. Very noticeable if you move "too fast" or turn fog off

gilded totem
#

Why would it be that bad here?

steel shoal
#

The ground further away from you is at a lower quality and doesn't have collisions

eternal garnet
#

I don't think the SS is low graphics, just ice

steel shoal
#

But it could be that it's just far away enough

#

Either way, SN1 has much less smooth graphics

#

With worse textures

#

BZ was an upgrade in that regard, and so will SN2 in comparison

gilded totem
#

Here is a comparison between bz and original subna... It feels waaaaay to bright. I tried different settings...

steel shoal
#

SN1 is less saturated

eternal garnet
#

it's different, but it's not a big difference

carmine bobcat
#

BZ is higher up on the planet, the sun would be brighter further north you go

gilded totem
# steel shoal Yes. It looks prettier, more colorful.

No, it burns my eyes it is way to bright in light parts of the image and way to dark in the darker parts. Especially the blue color is way oversaturated. When i opened my inventory it burned my eyes from the amount of blue light on the edges

carmine bobcat
#

and the ice could act as somewhat of a magnifying glass to make it make it shine brighter

steel shoal
#

The white sand biome with ice and snow is probably brighter than a dull sandy biome. That's to be expected.

carmine bobcat
#

have you tried your moniter settings? maybe youve maxed out the brightness and other settins on it

steel shoal
carmine bobcat
#

oh oops lol

gilded totem
steel shoal
steel shoal
#

Then what do you want from us?

carmine bobcat
#

it could simply be a differant time in the day cycle

gilded totem
#

No as in "i can't"

steel shoal
#

You can, just go to monitor settings and play with the values, and then set them back to normal when you're done playing BZ.

carmine bobcat
#

should be buttons on your monitor that can change values manually

steel shoal
eternal garnet
#

all except apple monitors do. Apple monitors do it via software

gilded totem
#

Ugh, sorry if i sound like a stupid lil dude. I can act like that sometimes, but im not trying to be rude to anyone...

carmine bobcat
#

i get its stressful

steel shoal
#

It didn't even have HDMI, I do not miss it

carmine bobcat
#

oh damn

#

i only recently got into computers :3

gilded totem
carmine bobcat
#

also if you've bought it on steam they have a 2 week refund period

eternal garnet
#

also max 2h playtime

safe sun
#

BZ channels should be back.

Subnautica? I've heard about this game! What? It has another game with the arctic and freezing temperatures? So it is some sort of subnautica: bellow zero?
Absolute cinema!

Sounds weird, but is true

where do I find the red place?

you don't need to go there until you have scanned 3 somethings

If you drop ion cubes before you die, do they disappear?

Also, if you carry a beacon when you die, the beacon is dropped and renamed to mark the death location (easier to recover dropped items)

azure ocean
#

I'm so lost on what I should do. I just fisnished exploring everything that's on land and all I have are two artifacts I need to go to. PK8 isn't mandatory and idk how to get to Q59. Is it in ||the crystal caves||?

glossy brook
#

0/10 on this game seatruck doesnt say welcome aboard captain 👎

kind peak
azure ocean
#

yeah but this game doesn't rly force you to explore which is why I'm asking

#

like idk what I'm even trying to find

broken badge
azure ocean
#

alr thx

#

alr I found nothing except resources there

#

what's even my goal rn

kind peak
azure ocean
#

yeah but idk how

#

I got 2 parts

#

my only marker is pk8 and I don't wly want to or need to go there

steel stream
#

Technically none of the artifacts are mandatory...they are just meant to bring player to certain areas...

azure ocean
#

well there’s not much in the caldera

#

so do I just go and explore the ||crystal caves||?

nova fable
#

Question and would like to know if im right

||is the crystal cave near the greenhouse?||

#

yeah

#

hers

austere knoll
nova fable
#

i did mean under there but ok good to know ill look somewhere else

austere knoll
nova fable
#

yeah i would like to find it but one question b4 i go look again

#

is MK 1 for prawns good enough?

#

if im honest idk whats best to take

#

maybe just look with the truck first then place a beacon when found

austere knoll
#

The deepest the caves go is like 1,000 or 950 meters so make sure you can go to that depth

nova fable
#

my truck is 650m atm

austere knoll
nova fable
#

thats why i wanna find that

#

i some how found the Nickle thanks to the seamonkies

austere knoll
#

I think you can get to the entrance to the crystal caves with 650 but you cant explore the full thing

nova fable
#

ahh oki can i ask one more thing just say no if im wrong

#

and i may go try and find it again since i know where to look (near her home)

#

is this just help the seatruck be faster

austere knoll
#

Yes

#

Doesn’t really do much anyway if you have to many modules

#

Below zero try’s to fix the map being much smaller than the previous game by making you slower there for making the map feel larger

nova fable
#

thats fair

#

I only got 1 of each module atm

#

mainly got the aquarium for food

austere knoll
#

Yeah I did the same in my play through

nova fable
#

i must have some worried mother though

#

the amount of penglins i pick up when docked at base

austere knoll
#

Dude the penglings are the best part off the game

nova fable
#

true

#

also i only just learnt what those little radio signal things mean

#

thanks to the ore finder

austere knoll
#

The beacons?

yeah tell u where to place a spy penglin

through link yeah

oh nice i might try it

ill get a new link cable though yeah through the air works for me with VRchat but if im gonna be next to my PC then might as well get a link cable

#

(if i can find a decent/cheep one)

eternal garnet
#

I don't know if a cable is needed, but the VR mode where the game runs on your GPU

#

i'd have more, but difficult to screenshot

azure ocean
#

how deep into the caves is kyanite

#

cause I just saw my first shadow

broken badge
#

If you saw the shadow you are deep enough. The entrance areas should have some individual pieces of it to pick up

eternal garnet
#

about 600

azure ocean
#

bro I'm at the worst enterance

#

cause I have to go past it

#

is it hard to kill with a drill arm?

broken badge

It’s easy with seatruck cabin and perimeter defense. No need to kill anything

azure ocean
#

i kinda wanna

broken badge
#

😒

azure ocean
#

cause if it's anything like the lost river, imma be going back and forth a lot

#

bro I'm not liking how its a narrow corridor and the shadoww just guards it

eternal garnet

it's not like lost river, no

is it like the arctic spires where all I need is just ||alan|| and some resources

tacit thorn

I'm in a sea truck

and I'm pretty sure everyone who beat the game

Use the perimeter defense it goes away for a bit.

Controls didn't work for me there. Submersed fixes that. And brings VR to BZ too

the shadow I'm with goes in a ciricle, should I just follow it?

whole otter
#

When it start moving away frum the entrance

azure ocean
#

k

whole otter
#

Follow and try not to get notice vry easy to dodge n then u kinda follow the path built by the land ull come across a crystal drop but thats not the final location where you build alans body once you have all the mats to build bros body u head past the drop further until u see the red crystals they kinda square formation there will b 2 mor shadows there and the place where u build alan isnt that hard 2 find ion wunna spoil

do the thermal spires or vents give good heat?

What should i make with it?

#

The prawn upgrade or the seatruck one?

Because both seatruck and prawn have same max depth

arctic drum

But like which one is more useful to get at first?

#

Ohhhhhhh

#

I think i'll go for prawn

kind peak
#

Oh wait prawn can go 100m deeper lol

#

Thats not really much difference tho

arctic drum

Just like in the normal game right?

kind peak
arctic drum
#

The prawn going 100m deeper then the cyclops

In sn1 both prawn and cyclops can go 1700m

arctic drum
#

Wait really?

kind peak
#

Ye

arctic drum
#

I always thought one could go 100m deeper

kind peak

And in bz prawn can go to 1100m and seatruck to 1000m

arctic drum

Damn only 1100m deep is honestly lame next to sn1

Ye bz map is smaller

I do think people over criticize BZ ngl

I honestly just got back into it this week and wow it's so fun

I've been avoiding all spoilera

I didnt do that with sn1

I bought bz like month ago

And i didnt knew anything

#

Btw can i use the spiral plant clipping to grow it in a pot?

#

Or is that impossible

I just finished it then stopped playing for a while because didnt had any time to play it

#

My prawn moonpool is in worst possible place lol
