yeah
(I havent checked it)
Nice fish farm lol
well a biom that u need a lot of stuff to get to
Just massacered some fish
Do you have prawn grapple arm?
After you get it you should try using it on small fish like peeper or something else lol
Yeah i remember doing that in SN1 its hilarious 😂
I think it was in caves when you go deeper in lilypad caves
awww i wanted to add a gif
Ohh yeah
I'll find em
I love the grappling arm
Grappling arm is must have in prawn
Using two grapple arms is fun
I was flying once in arctic spires using grapple arm lol
Absolutely
i wanna make something funny
Is it bad that i have literally spent like 20 minutes on the surface?
Yo thats my cutie
Scaryy
I remeber he eaten me while i was trying to scan him
Hahaha
He is really slow tho
I have stabbed the reaper to death
I was swimming around with seaglide and he couldnt catch me 😭
Lmaoo
I have only once died in BZ
That was because of oxygen
And i suck at video games btw
I dont remember how many times i died but i remeber i only died because of trying to scan leviathans lol
I just wish they worked better on land
They already working good on land you can fly with them lol
I was in the Glacial Basin and there was this frozen waterfall, I tried using a grapple arm to get on top of it and it didn't lift the Prawn
how is nickle found is it in one of those 50/50 thing
Its somewhere in crystal cave
ah oki ty
i might just have to use the 3 i got from the sea monkies for now then
ill make the MK 3 depth for the truck and come back
I don't know, all I know is what I've seen
What would be nice is if the grapple arm also worked similarly to the propulsion cannon, in that it could move crates blocking rooms off
It's a huge grapple capable of moving and bearing the weight of a mech. It should be able to handle a crate
it can only pull. no precision movements.
Yeah it doesn’t lift you up those frozen waterfalls, I’ve tried it as well.
You’d basically have to make platforms to jump up the levels to get up that high
The grapple will only pull you up a very short distance if it’s straight up like those waterfall locations
try with two graples
The scanning room wants me to consume the water
perfectly aligned
why i get muted chat
okay 3 of 3
Is there anything else i should look for for fun b4 i go do this?
i got 4 achievements left
You got the ||trivalves?||
is that an achievement?
Not an achievement just an optional thing you can do
I got 2 left
one is prob || making the body for alan||
is the other leaving the planet?
||Yes those are the final achievements||
okie dokie
bro I rly need to kill this shadow but like I don't wanna break my prawn
Subnautica below my a
killed 1/4
killed 2/4
if I save before ||I go through the portal with alan|| can I come back and play after I beat the game
Yes.
You may want to save before ||transfering Al-An to his body so that sea monkeys don't steal stuff||
too late
There is a mod for that, so they leave you alone.
How do i get magnetite?
There is some inside the place deep under the ||lilypad area where you go to get one of the Al-An parts, where you find the giant cotton anemones but I always forget the official name of the biome||. Later in game you can also find it in the crystal caverns but that’s very deep
You can also pin a recipe with it and sometimes the sea monkeys will bring you a piece
I just reached the greenhouse of Marguerite where do I have to go next?
You don't have to go anywhere just because you were there. You can continue what you were doing before that
I'm just following the story
But didn't Marguerite say some location on the pda?
I checked the pda and it's just a dialog and no info
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||
Thx
If you don't know Phi, go west from Delta, then north at the ice wall
U mean the place with the bridge?
I made the fluid for it
yes
So I should go over the bridge?
Not for stuff I mentioned no. Bridge goes north
For other reasons, yes, eventually
Ok thx
If you want sum stuff then go over the bridge
I’m a bit suspected on bz my computer broke day after I got it
To get snow stalker fur do I need to kill one?
Just shear it you can make a bed
I'm trying to make the cold suit
O shoot forgot this ain’t Minecraft
No, killing isn't awarded in these games (other than edible fish)
So how do I get snow stalker fur?
Either pick it up from cave floors or use spy pengling
If I am in a cave with a snow stalker what's the best way to deal with him?
just beat subnautica now im finally on to this part of the chat lol
anybody need help?
skibidi rizz
Im starting up the game rn so probably lol
Wsg guys
why is the mineral detector actually usless
So close to greatness, but somewhat lacking.
Is there a way to recharge ion cubes?
there might be a glitch involving the recyclotron
I know about that, but I'm not wholly sure that's a glitch
It returns crafting ingredients, and fully charged cubes are a crafting ingredient, you know?
I just thought that, given it's an energy source, there might be some sort of recharging station involving them
cant find table coral omg
There's a bunch in twisty bridges
ya 50 to 150m deep in twisty. Bright orange with pink lights
Ive looked all over
Weird - there should be a bunch on the walls. Sometimes in groups, sometimes alone
I want to enjoy playing below zero but I just can not😖
u need help?
yes it is 3hrs ago and im responding
i went somewhere
Apart from using recyclotron, swim charge fins charge them in the tool that uses ion cubes as power source (but too slow to have any practical use)
That is a fair point

Are you talking about Squidshark? Because it's much much smaller, and not a leviathan.
Cook that giant thing into a prawn sushi
Its database shows in the carnivore category not leviathan class
I think this is a good idea.
Sell them once you get back to planet earth
Yep, the text wasn't changed because it costs money and takes time to rewrite it in every language
Either they didn't think it was urgent enough, or they were serious when they said they love how upset people get about the inconsistency
drugs are bad, mmmkay
😭
hell yeah
anyways where is a good spot to get lead? I got EVERYTHING but lead 😭 🙏
One message removed from a suspended account.
One message removed from a suspended account.
Galena outcrops (twisty bridges) or pin suitable recipe and go meet sea monkeys
No drillable lead available...
this is twisty vines right? i cant find any table coral
twisty bridges yes. 50 to 150m, orange
does someone know how i can consistently far mtitan in the early game?
Titanium is in every outcrop in this game. You can go near the Mercury to find the metal salvage too I guess.
best place to find gold early gamne?
Arctic Kelp Caves, Thermal Spires.
yes
is the ||rebreather|| later in the game or something?
no, mid. Find it at ||170m depth twisty bridges by a little crane||
where do i find ||new songs to play in the jukebox?||
also the ||seatruck|| is hilariously deadly LOL
ive accidently killed so many things
i just caugth a leviathan:)
Nice, shrimp or the bigger one?
Regular or the albino variants?
And sure yeah
Can You Even Capture A Void Chelisera
With great effort and low reward yes
I Have A New Life Goal
I plan to do that myself at some point
Just don’t know which one to choose
I’m thinking the shallow one in tree spires
Bare in mind they will despawn when you leave
thats why i chose a normal one
but what is it for?
they dont despawn right?
I think not
will you name it?
name him cookie 🥹
They’re not supposed to
But I got a ||shadow leviathan that just does not exist|| that says otherwise
He’ll appear on scanner rooms
But if you follow the beacon there’s just nothing there
So I’m sorta waiting till I’m in a safe biome and it just clips through the ground and 1 shots my prawn for no reason
about the name, right now i dont have one, but feel free to make suggestions
I follow the bacon 🥓
Boxer
i like bacon:)
Guys I did it.....
All 4 shadow leviathans killed!
idk what those are pls dont spoil the game
whats the bets place to find calaverite ?
In seamokey caves in sparse arctic and around delta island are plenty around, also some in twisty bridges caves.
HI I cant find rubies
Deep twisty bridges or koppa mining site in the beginning. Many other places also, such as lilypad crevices and deep lilypad cave and so on.
?oh shoo i was around the lily pads. wheres the crevice
Depending where you are in the game, its where the beacon of ||pilots last known position|| is. Also more rubies in tree spires biome too.
guys i need your help
i bought this game about a year ago
and ive been having the same thing going on when i try to fix it, i checked the forums and everything. there is nothing that helped me
im gonna send a few screenshots and i hope someone can help i really love subnautica and i want to be able to play this too
yes this is an easy fix. Mac?
yep
the first cutscene is fine
and its also alright as long as i dont move my cursor for the first few seconds
In steam, open properties for Below Zero. Launch options. Enter here: -force-glcore
lemme try it one sec
Im mad that I havent figured this out a year ago
What couldve caused this?
it's a compat problem with some metal API, not sure
||I keep trying to find rubys deep in the twisties but scary boy keeps attacking me and i cant upgrade my seatruck depth mod||
No
I walk on the ice a lot
Closest I came was the ice rumbling
But no worm ever appeared
where can i get nickel ore
chat is the only reason to go into the cotten ananome zone are for the body cache and the mushrooms or is there smth else
i found some in the lilypad zone
okay thx
Hi, I started below zero more than a year ago, but got distracted and left it midway through. I came back to it now and wanna finish the game, I remember a few things I did but not what I needed to do or where I needed to go. Can someone help me by pointing out where to go explore next? Here's some screenshots of my beacons (i can send more screenshots of other stuff if it helps)
looks like those 2 artifact spots are new, try there?
alright
you can look throuh your PDA too to catch up on everything, that may help
i remember the last thing i did was explore one of the ||bases on the ice||
the one that ||you need to extend the drawbridge to get access to||
hmm, i dont really remember what comes after that
i would look through your logs in the PDA also
yep
does anyone know if the ||seatruck perimeter defense|| does damage to ||shadow leviathans|| and if so do they regen their health
it does do damage, and i dont think they regen
i wouldn’t recommend trying to kill one with it
the issue is I dont want to kill it, she's the whole reason I made my base there
hmmm Inoperative... you dont say
Not so sure with some elbow grease I'm certain that could be fixed right up 😁
Hey i am new to below zero,will there be a cylops or a seamoth in this Game?
Nope you get a seatruck :)
No but the seatruck is pretty much both combined
there is a prawn though
I liked the seatruck better to be honest
Or welcome aboard capital
no
Why do you swim so slow in below zero?
The map is smaller so they are compensating
Ohhh okay
Never mind... issue is with a mod.
One message removed from a suspended account.
I dont think the jukebox has that as one of the songs
One message removed from a suspended account.
speaking of mods, i've been using the Improved Power Network (Bepinex) and it feels like it's more trouble than it's worth. has anyone figured out what causes the power transmitters to connect to random structures or if the 2 toggle options it has even works...
i've fiddled with it our a week now i think
Yes, the problem is the game, as the transmitters will connect to the closest, first structure it loads. So if there's a foundation nearby, it might connect to it.
Power transmitters have 200m range, be careful
can I give sea monkeys things or is this a one way relationship?
It's oneway depending on the progress of the game. In the beginning they take whatever you are holding, then they give you whatever you desire (more or less 🙂
does sol trans gov mean solar transportation government?
Probably
A trans-gov in a science fiction context would be an entity that governs beyond nation-state. Like an interstellar governance.
Would be funny if you pinned an item and then they brought you one instead of just the resources to make it.
Like you pinned a prawn suit and then like 6 of them brought you a completed prawn suit 😁
Then no issue, for however long you plan on playing that save i would be very surprised if you ended up killing it
I believe it's a Trans Gov from the Sol System
so a trans gov from our solar system
cause typically when the Sol System is mentioned it refers to the system that rotates our sun Sol
Question, precursors are the first sapient space faring species humans have found correct? All i can find is robin saying Alan was the first one that she specifically had met
Interesting definition of "met". As far as I know Robin was the first to meet them
no but ben prunty did cook with some of the songs
kinda my goat ost artist, along with david guillaume
turns out i disabled my first playthrough achievements
cuz i used cheats to try and build up higher on my base lol
so now i have to restart
hooray
or, install the mod that fixes achievements
i used cheats, that disables achievements
ya. And the mod enables them
would it give me the achievements i missed?
yes
My new little friend
Has anyone else played BZ on PS4?
Why do you still have all the recipes pinned ?
Dont know
I forgot they existed
Careful, he’ll bite ya
WIll the below zero multiplayer mod be listed in #subnautica-modding ?
No, but you can ask for the mod in the modding community.
Ok
so i just got the game and i headed out in a random direction, i think im in the middle of nowhere it didnt give the void warning either, its just straight nothingness
There's no void warning
The message only plays when you visit the void for the first time
It would be funny if the PDA gave you the message that you were entering the middle of nowhere 😁
It basically tells you you’re going to die
I went into the void once, only because Ignis wanted me to see the creature there. Such a kind fellow :)
Now scan it…
(I suggest saving before you try if you want to scan it)
void cheli and red cheli have the same PDA entry. So scan one of them only
So after scanning void shrimp you get same thing after scanning normal shrimp?
yes. so you can't scan both
That sucks
and the text has both of them
the void ones are just bigger and more... rotten. Like a zombie
In sn1 we can scan both normal ghost and that one in void 😭
We need something like that in bz too
they spawn differently. Void spawns infinitely, max 3 at a time
And what about void shrimp how they spawn
I been only once to void in bz
And that was early game when i was looking for glacial basin 😭
I said void. The red ones never respawn
Ik that normal leviathans never respawn
How much titanium do i need to build a decent base?
more than 6.
100-150+
Yes
My sea horror got activated the moment i looked into abyss
It became night at correct time
I went to a random direction during day came across to void and the moment i reached there it became night
I found my way back to pod
To be honest the game was so short, I didn't even build a base really :)
My base is super small
Unlike the one in SN1
||how do i get to the other side of the bridge?||
finally decided to play BZ
Scan the canister on the bridge and craft new one
I hate this mod manager
Was it fun ?
Air Bladder is so op in this game lol
Its behavior was backported to SN1.
Now they're the same.
I didn't really notice much difference I just think it works really well with the map
Cause the twisty bridges is really deep for some reason
It’s a cool biome, but it would have been better if it was like the grassy platues is to the safe shallows
I wasted so much time
erm
Sorry representation gets me excited
this is my first time playing the game though, that’s the thing
You mean you have|| constructed alans body in the fabricator cavern (red cristal cavern)||?
note skeleton is only 1 of 3
I do feel that it’s easier to get “lost” (as in, not knowing what to do) in Below Zero than it is in Subnautica.
No i have the blueprint
Yeah like in subnautica once you get to the LR, its super easy to figure out you have to keep going deeper
you need 3 blueprints
But here its random?
you didn't explain. Do you have skeleton or did you ||release alan||
scroll down blueprints and see their names. Most likely you have skeleton. "body" confuses anyone trying to help. There's no head either
There are hints in PDAs, and when you get near a part (100m) then Alan speaks
Hints: ||one's very deep. One's on the huge land in the west. Not delta island||
I could give clearer hints, but it shortens your game
I think it might be C
thats so cringe
or see options, controls
you can of course change it, but shift is sprint by defaul
Around twisty bridges
like this?
yes, depth 50- 150m. Orange, with pink lights
so the deeper area. Move away from the volcano (north) a bit
you came here to find out about Samantha. But you crash landed
the delta station?
game changes now. Sea monkeys too
place is cool, cube man isnt
I’m getting below zero
spoiler alert
how do i get lithium and stalker teeth
Lithium is in seabed in purple vents and stalker teeth are in #subnautica-chat
guys is the polar bear thing a fish cuz it says its related to the og stalkers
this guy just ate my sea truck 
I think they tried to make species tie in as best they could, but this is science fiction, so it’s not like it’s going to be 100% realistic. It’s more like there’s visible features that show some relationships and how things might have evolved, sort of like oculus and peepers etc. I wouldn’t try to tie them rigorously together the way we can see species, subspecies on earth have the same genetic relationships
are there just stalkers in below zero cause i cant find them
Not the regular ones, no
then how do i get their teeth
i thought he did but i found it
:D
@broken badge
💀
The ending was awesome!


Tbh it was kinda bad
The story of the game sucks but the map is cool
I mean yeah the story wasn't the best and solving what happened to her sister was a total nightmare, but ||not having to build everything piece by piece and her simply leaving with Al-an|| wasn't too terrible.
I for sure preferred the first Subnautica.
But don't expect much as the writer was changed mid story in Below Zero.
I can't think of any other way it could of ended to be honest.
?
Also the || leviathan in the ice made no sense tbh they should have used like the reaper or ghost leviathan there too||
Its a hacked account
Ah I see.
They hack accounts to spam messages in groups
I'm not new to the internet but some of the shenanigans I am 😁
I agree!
Don't hesitate to tag the mod role for this type of message.
Okie dokie :)
It got burrier under the snow
Map was one of the worst parts of the game it was way to cramped and packed full of colourful things and lacked the scary aspect of vast empty biomes filled with little to no life
The ground was hungry
Fr
Very helpful thx
Guess what
:/
;-; ?
it's not salvageable. Try to look up when deploying the snowfox
||they wanted it to be a land leviathan||
agreed
If Sam would shut up it would be better
The ending is peak
I like it more than sn1
Ima quit yapping
Which is better?
Cyclops vs. Seatruck
Seamoth vs. Seatruck
SN PRAWN vs. BZ PRAWN
SN blueprint gathering vs BZ blueprint gathering
SN Base building vs BZ base building
SN Crafting vs BZ Crafting
SN Fauna vs BZ Fauna
SN Environment vs BZ Environment
SN Prawn Suit, SN blueprint gathering, BZ base building, SN crafting (I think it was an error to be able to craft depth upgrades in a normal fabricator), SN fauna, but BZ has good creatures too, BZ has prettier biomes, but I like the open sea, BZ emote.
You can't really choose SN base building, there are more things to build in BZ.
It's like asking if you want 5 or 10 dollars.
real. worth the ask
Seatruck manages to fill a different purpose from both Cyclops and Seamoth.
still arguably does that purpose worse than the Cyclops or Seamoth does their job
At the start it feels like a really skinny Seamoth but with modules it's a brand new thing
doesnt have nearly as much storage. which is why i have like 3 or 4 storage modules in my playthrough i never finished.
It's more flexible and tankier than the Seamoth, with a similar relative speed, and it has many more features
if it had a teleporter feature, it'd be worth it (i thought it did, does it not?)
It has one, yes
The Teleportation Module is a very niche module
im tempted to make it
I think its best usage is for leaving it next to cave/wreck entrances, and exploring without it all you want, and in case of emergency, recall back to the Seatruck
that'd be so worth it because of my somewhat low O2
Not very useful, it consumes 1/3 of an ion cube per usage. Better to craft a second O2 tank
too much space
It's a niche thing, could be useful if you're trying to clear all metal salvage
The steep ion cube price is remediated by the exploit with Recyclotron, and the large amount of cubes available
hmph
whats the recyclotron exploit?
If you recycle a tether tool with a partially depleted cube, it'll recharge it to max.
wow
oh its like in acnh how if you customize a tool before it breaks the durability of the tool resets
And you can get infinite number of batteries with the recyclotron.
how?
You take out the battery from the repair tool, recycle the repair tool, craft a new repair tool, take out the battery from the repair tool, recycle the repair tool... and so on.
ohh
should i hardcore mode my first run?
oh nope.
no?
it disables saving, and you should save a lot, esp. when you got a vehicle to get stuck
what if im a sadist?
then do it. Also look at custom mode
oh ok
what else should i be aware of before i do this? cause if i get like 10 hours in and die to like being stuck thats gunna bug me
unstuck is for the player only.
prawn push is a fix, but that's mid game +
dying of cold on the big land in the west
heat sources: coffee thermos (not good), pepper fruit, open water, caves, vehicles
steam vents
yes. And you can refill... in a base. Pepper fruit grow in caves
is a much better option
on land, there are white bear things that maul you. They are scared of ||a held flare||
how is a held flare a spoiler
because you may want to find out yourself
that i can hold flares?
I spoil unsolicited advice sometimes
thats ok
Careful, This game has ||Fish|| and ||Water||
Wait it has ||water||where?
I don’t want to spoil it
@queen pumice yabbadabbadoo sorry had to, but to be more on topic the white bear things are annoying, probably the worst in the entire game, just a heads up
minor nuisance with a flare
Nope they come back immediately
And keep on
It was so bad I actually killed a few with my prawn
I don't normally do that but after a while trying to solve Sam's story and those things, yeah it's annoying.
In fact I hated them more than the stalkers in the first game
The babies are cute though
It's no wonder people give up on figuring out what happened to Sam
I almost did
Sup gang

One message removed from a suspended account.
I mean it's possible
but not probable
I honestly could not get them to leave Robin alone, I even tried chasing them with the flare away and they immediately returned to where they patrol.
You do realize they have a patrol point right, they eventually return to it.
It just happens to be right near where you have to place the ||spy pengling||
Good luck
where is the life pod/first spawn
@unique tangle
thx
Np
You don’t
bruh
There is an ultra high capacity air tank that takes oxygen to 180
Multiple tanks, Airbladders, or maybe just eject all modules and drive sideways
I actually had multiple tanks for spots like that and wrecks
it makes a huge difference
there are 4 o2 plants inside here
How do you feel about the o2 plants?
Do you think it makes the game easier?
threy are an early game help
That's true
I did use them quite a bit down there.
Use oxygen plants
Im about to buy subnautica can i play with xbox freind if i am on pc.
jeez the snowfox is borderline unridable(for a vehicle you use once and for not enough time to get skilled)
Yesterday I built my first prawn and went onto exploring the region with iceworms, and man it is op, like I don’t think got hit a single time by it, and it was interesting exploring but there was not much to explore that is my only problem.
It makes sense why there is not much - because you are expected to use a snowfox which moves fast, but brah I deconstructed it amidiatly after crafting it cause I amidiatly remembered that people said on youtube to use the prawn suit lol
Also I packed my self with spicy salad when I was testing the snow fox, but apparently it somehow had heat which is strange
Snowfox is a strange piece of garbage
HUH?
I just killed my first leviathan
Predator, not leviathan. More bark than bite, but very scary when you first enounter them.
guys is trivalve worth getting
If you'd like to have a 'pet', then yes
How to find the person in the prawn suit
Help please
Go to pilot's last known location and then dive in the caves
Follow the lights in the cave
Oh, just go to the base (walking, not in prawn)
At delta station dock how find person in prawn suit
Go up toward the radio tower, near the top of the island
Okay tysm
No problem
I can’t seem to find it
Help please
Have you gone to the tower?
Can’t get to it
You might need to try going through some of the caves on the island - just keep going up
Ah
What are you looking for?
The lily pads p pilot
You have the beacon?
Yes
Then go there and down into the crevices. Search for light sticks and follow them
Deepest crevices?
No not the orange biome. The normal lilypad crevices.
I know.
The base is at around 370m.
Awe 🫢
What do I do after?
Can I find diamonds in lily
Done
For diamonds, go to tree spires biome. There are plenty there. Or deep twisty bridges or deep lilypad.
Where’s? Trees
Where to biggest leviathan in the game is located. West of lilypad or south of delta island.
Naw
Also Koppa mining site has lots of diamonds. Safest place to get them.
Where is it?
Next to delta island. Do you have the map? The Alterra facility map?
No
You need that map, otherwise you cannot follow Sams story. Its in the first room in delta station on the wall. You have to scan it.
Tysm
Dock?
Yes but up in the station next to the big radio tower.
Thats great, no need to rush
One with observation room?
@west mountain pls help me
I am actually so lost
Got it
are there only 2 vehicles in below zero?
snowfox hover bike. For land
oh
Why no hover bike for water
when you travel on the surface, you miss everything below
Is that why I have 30 snow foxes underwater
it floats now. Used to sink
I’m scared to boot up that save now
also, after 3 sinking, did you keep trying?
Uhhh
Let’s say not all of them were on purpose
💀
Also I forgot that I can pick them up
yes they need some 
No, it causes other pengwings to enter in distress
I kidnapped 3 but then released them into water
The others miss them like 5 maybe 6 seconds
I also caught and released 3
maybe 4, it's worth it to hold a baby pengling
early on
chunkier slower STUPIDER MORE EXPENSIVE VOICELESS seamoth
later on
basically a seaclops
though it's quite expensive/tedious to get all the attachments
if the only thing youre interested is one vehicle i dont think its worth buying it for that alone
Nah I also want a new expirience after finishing subnautica 1
Since i'm close to the end
And subnautica 2 is probably coming to playstation in 2027
how below zero is below zero
Well the price isn't below zero but the weather probably is :)
Would you like to see the level 5 badge for BZ on Steam?
Absolutely
Where would I get diamonds?
That's arguably better
Help me please
Deep Twisty Bridges or in the Lily Pad Crevices are the only places I can think of
Depth of both?
Xenolinguist also looks better on the profile
I don't remember, I actually found many diamonds around one of the alien architect things
but it's been a while
why doesnt my habitat builder work, i cant place a foundation on land OR in water, PLEASE help meh
Empty battery, mods, not sure, Note, foundations are not required. Nice to put growbeds on
idk what to do, is it worth exploring the artic spires and is the thumber even any good?
thumper, not really. Would be useful if it follows you but no
Arctic spires has a vital story item, and 2 pet eggs and some more. I have a map
The map can reduce time here
Spires map. Open full
Did you create that map?
no. edited a little
Ah nice
damn the ice worms are ungodly annoying
im glad there are maps out there for players to avoid danger, but i get a kick out of running from the worms
its so annoying that it just kicks you off the bike and the terrain is so stupid
get gud
im so tired of needing to look at a stupid map and STILL not knowing where the hell im going
im modding a map in im tired of this crap
like i think im going the right way and its like "nope wrong way doofus
"
i get you. it took me some time to figure that place out
and wow does it seem the ice worm attack deducer module is trash
sub2 cant come fast enough
Look up when you deploy the bike. And what are you doing with the pengling remote?
Bruh
get closer then do that
that's what's in the hands when you have the bike equipped
Actually, you need to deploy camera mode. On yourself. Hidden feature
Another hb fan?
Nice
I would spoiler that
It calls it up
Oops mb😭
maybe you have some automatic unspoilering thing on?
I might have clicked it and not remembered
excuse me what the hell
maybe your alterra bill is maxed
where do i find the ||fabrication facility? i can't seem to find the enterance to red crystals from the purple ones||
nvm found it
Figured out that leviathans in below zero don’t attack you if you’re not piloting your seatruck, so I’ve been getting awesome closeups
I’m on hardcore too btw lol

Kelp Caves, Twisty Bridges, inside the Mercury II.
For the diamond, Deep Twisty Bridges, Thermal Spires Caves, Tree Spires.
Probably Koppa.
its not just foundations, i cant put ANYTHING down, on land or on the sea bed, i dont know how to take out the batteries
Do you have a recyclotron? You can always recycle it and make a new one. Unless you tried making a new one.
sadly not, i only started yesterday
Oh
i spent soo much time on making it 😔
Welcome 😁
how do u take out the batteries tho
Pc?
yes
R
rlly?
Yeah
Okay!
thanks tho frfr, even though it prolly wont work 💔
i will try to recycle it if i get that thingy
It should 🙂
it says charge is 100%
Ought oh, yeah might have to make a new one then 😮💨
😔 have you encountered this glitch before
I have not
Hell(uva) yeah
W
That's one helluva sentence
A friend of mine, fan of the show, didn't know Helluva meant "hell of a"
We think so. It's different. But a great game
depends, it's a bit different from subnautica since bellow zero focuses more on story telling rather than the pure survival gameplay with some other quirks. personally i like normal subnautica more but i still think bellow zero is a decent game that can give a fun experience
It depends what your expectations are and what you're looking for. Having over 100 hours in the game is can confidently say it's like a 6/10 to me.
Its not a BAD playthrough by any means but it's far from the original subnautica. If your expectations aren't high and you're not expecting something quite as good as Og Subnautica. If you look at it as a dlc (as it was originally meant to be) and set your expectations to such, i think you'll have a great time
That's just my opinion though
sounds about right
I wouldn't call it far from subnautica. But you aren't alone, and not quiet
imo biggest difference is still the main gameplay
subnautica was: survival, exploration,mystery, all that
below zero is more: story, following a path, filling missing links
and yeah as you said you're not alone
also way more land. x3
I think Below Zero delivers at what it's supposed to be. I just don't like that it's presented as a brand new game that's priced the same as the original. For the sole reason that it's not as big, innovative or captures the same magic. It's like a watered down (get what I did there) version of OG subnautica to me. Which is fine for an expansion, but not for a whole new game.
The games size is weird though. It's way to big to be a dlc. But it's too small to be a complete sequel
i personally liked below zero but I dont like how they changed the starting scene
it's like subnautica 1.5
Its like a smaller subnautica with some new concepts
and giant worms
i like the subnautica truck simulator
But also very annoying
I do too. I think the sea truck is great in paper. The execution kindaaa fell flat to me. I think it had great potential that wasn't capitalized on. I wish there was more modules, or some of the ones that are in the game was more useful or was replaced with something else
nothing beats the seamoth
prawn, aquarium, storage
Yeah
Exactly
Which is more than likely the first 3 modules you ever get. Making all the other ones underwhelming
true, tho to me one of the things i disliked the most was how it replaced other vehicles. as much as it's cool to have a highly customisable floating base, the cyclops already did that well and we fully lost the seamoth. so the vehicles kinda lacked variety
The sea truck was supposed to be the cyclops and seamoth. But was doomed to fail at both since both the cyclops and seamoth are polar opposites lmao
And i didn't like WHEN you got the sea truck. A big moment of og subnautica for me was building the Cyclops. It felt like a big leap in progress. In Below Zero you get the sea truck at the start. And the Prawn suit at the end. Missing thay mid game vehicle that gives thay same feeling of progression
yeah they fused both to an ok result with a lack of variety, so i don't hate it but i don't really love it. Thus im hoping that subnautica 2 does more with vehicles, especially since 4 player co-op is on the table
I love the seatruck.
I agree!
very true
I love MY sea truck. I went on so many adventures in that thing 🫡
Yes, yours is very special
i honestly would love to see some co-op based vehicles/vehicle modules. like maybe scavenging bits so one person controls the sub while the other can collect resources or scan object and such things
Well, sadly I don't think that will happen. While it would be cool. The steam page does say it is a single player focused game with seamless co-op
Its still meant to be single player focused. Meaning in don't think anything will be locked behind needing multiple people
I think you'll be able to manage everything as 1 player
Which
I'm not mad at. I think subway is still best at Single player
true, who knows maybe we'll get some gimmicks that work as single player but can also be done co-op
there could have been more models yeah, perhaps the reason they didnt add everything is to balance the sea truck out to keep you relying on a real habitat. what good would the function of bases be if you could cram it all in a little mobile box?? also, i think the sea truck was great as it was
I feel the game is too small to need more honestly. If they added more biomes and a non linear path, then yeah I would agree
I more mean, i wanted more modules with more uses suited better for specific journeys. Like I said there are three definitive best modules in the game that you should realistically never need to switch off of. I wish it made me think more in what modules I need to use for this trip you're making
It was very underwhelming finding other module fragments just to realize they were pretty much useless compared to the ones i had
Which may sound nitpicky
But oh well
Well, I would agree. My only problem is: the seatruck is very awkward and sometimes frustrating to navigate in the cramped spaces most of the biomes are in this game. Since it's less agile as the seamoth even without any modules. So it doesn't work in the linear spaces across the game either
Multiplayer device
Oh yes
X3
You can't fit inside, so... lol
Good observation
I'm honestly very interested in this new seamoth replacement and what will set it apart
Will it be able to dethrone the seamoth as my favorite vehicle !?
honestly i wonder if we'll get some big new sub that can mount 4 of these small subs
and so then you can spec them out for 4 different jobs and just have a submarine carrier flagship
i think this would be hella cool
thats awesome
Mothersub
this vehicle looks as small as is possible
Thats what I was thinking. A big sub that can mount multiple of these things. One person can pilot the big sub while the others can go out on the to scout linear areas
Yeah like a mothership would be so coolll
Is game confirmed to have proximity chat or anything?
I really hope so
Same
Having someone sent out in on a cave talking in through a radio and you suddenly hear them cut out after a scream would be so terrifying
it would be amazing
Exactly
And then you're cut from communication because they are back at spawn while you're still out all alone with whatever just killed them
😭
It sounds cinematic
honestly make it so the radio is a physical item that can be knocked out or stolen out of the players inventory by the enviroment.
so you're just exploring some pitch black depths talking to your friends then suddenly cut followed by nothing but pure silence......
making you all alone in the dark void
i think it would be a great horror element while also giving everyone else but you a good laugh
Sea monkeys robbing radios would be so hilarious
oh god not those devils
When your little brother steals your phone
propulsion cannon noises
Since we are getting off topic for this channel: how do yall feel about the Shadow leviathan
absolutely sexy fish, im so offended they did not give us more of it.
also how the hell did it not get the role of special void fish?!
Fr
I love the shadow leviathan itself and it's design and idea and everything about it
But what I don't like
Is the biome they put it in to be honest
Its a very pretty and cool looking biome
But didn't do the leviathan justice imo
Because it's bright, and there's too many hidey holes. Why are giant shadow creatures in a bright cramped space?
The void has natural darkness. For some reason
Like imagine it was dark instead, and all you could see faintly in the distance was the little red glowing bits and the bioluminescent mouth on the bottom whisk away in the distance before disappearing into the shadows. Then you hear a screech that comes from seeming all directions, and you frantically start looking around and suddenly it's behind you already about to grab yiu
It would do the shadow leviathan so much more justice if it was just DARK
i mean the fact it can easily hide is fair, perfect for ambush but yeah idk why is it in a bright biome.
but i agree the leviathan is amazing and it was so underused
Except it doesn't hide, it can't fit in the hidey holes i mentioned. My point was: you can see it from a mile away and it's so easy to hide from it. The terrain saves you so easily. It seeing you isn't even a threat imo
yeah i more meant the concept was great but yeah sadly they did my man so dirty
W
honestly would be so nice to have a redemption arc for it
Just lower your expectations. Don't expect it to be as good as Subnautica 1 and don't expect this to be subnautica 2. If you go into it with that mindset you'll have a good time
Yeah ik
I enjoyes stuff like the miles morales game but idk how to describe it
It's not a prequel and not a sequel
It's kind of like a BIG dlc
Yeah exactly
colorful biomes
Its like subnautica 1.5
Sea truck is also a factor
Not quite as big as subnautica. But the same premise with new concepts and ideas
And just don't expect it all to be great..
😭
expect more of a storytelling feel than a survival feel cuz that's kinda what the game brings
Yeah I kinda went into subnautica spoiled of the games story and gameplay
I know a bit less about below zero
I know the basic leviathan class creatures but idk the story or the ending unlike subnautixa
But I do know about the seatruck
It seems like a more mobile cyclops
Cyclops I love but is not to below zero:(
I think i saved my game before leaving the planet so I think I can still log in to my world and play around with the cyclops
AWW babies!
Where's your bioreactor?
Other room
Does anyone have any non-spoiler tips for BZ?
Be prepared to do everything on your own unprompted unlike SN1 and also some things that are big and loud are more scary than dangerous.
real
and small creatures are 😔
Like what?
rockpuncher and crashfish
I was never hurt by one but I knew what they were capable of by their name :)
Save often. Explore everything. This game is about exploration. Sea monkeys may annoy you a lot; just hide your tool (PC: press E). Bring a beacon everywhere. New beacon feature: if you have one and die, it will rename and drop.
The air bladder is now really good. Pin recipes you plan to make.
Have fun
crashfish has caused me suffering
yeah the air bladder is super good
the crashfish is very annoying but to be honest those snow things I despise
snow stalkers?
yeah
or ice worms
snow stalker fix: hold a flare
snow stalkers are indeed annoying i never encountered one
But they return to the place you need to go 😭
really? good
It's temporary
no the flare lasts a really long time. Don't throw it
You can't hold the flare and also ||operate the spy pengling||
What do you do then?
Don't they have a patrol point?
the habitat builder thing still doesnt work 😔
:*(
you can't build? There's power in it?
for some reason, even though i unloaded the battery and all that it still doesnt work, is there a depth requirement for building?
it says "100% charge"
you can't build 100m above the water surface
i can take out the ladder and stuff but i cant place it anywhere
yeah, im trying to build underwater
not sure what the limit is, but there is a height limit
but when i click on multipurpose room or foundation it doesnt even show it in red
try putting a power transmitter or a solar panel
why?
any mods?
im trying to build next to the pod 😔
oh i managed to place the solar panel also no i dont have any mods installed
it's a little finicky with distance. Maybe your green ghosts are invisible
graphics error
Except for the creatures in the deep
do pingwings breed in alien containments?
i wouldnt say soo, the solar panel was red in the start and lighted up green when i placed it on a surface, i managed to construct it afterwards
also is there some sort of leviathan or something on the path to pilot-last known location
base build example video. Note, foundations are not necessary https://youtu.be/wMot0ew5V7E?t=440
Yes the one of them is dangerous I am referring to the squidshark, chelicerate, and I also didn't concern myself with the cryptosucchus after a while
shadow leviathan aswell
i placed the transmitter next to the solar panel :D
you won't need it, it was just a test
To be honest I watched the shadow leviathan patrol a bit not close to it and had no problems out of it
Can you build I sections, corridors?
i'll try
what fails, compared to video
i'll watch it rn
are pingwings breedable in alien containment
i cant even place down the foundation, doesnt show it at all, i have all the resources in my inventory
