i was getting a ||seatruck module|| and it like dragged me down into the plant? I don’t know but i narrowly escaped with my life

frozen elm
#

Shadow Leviathan likes to digest the sea truck

strange wharf
#

Then once I built the ion power cells they seemed to leave me alone a lot more.

frozen elm
#

I haven't really played belie zero that much

formal hornet
#

What happens if I die do I lose all my stuff or nothing happens and I js tp back to base cuz if I don’t lose any stuff I’ll just go try to find a leviathan

feral coyote
#

i believe its the same as sn

#

lose all materials youve gained since the last time you entered "lifepod"/habitat

weak marten
#

when you die you will get teleportet back to your most recent habitat and you will lose some (all) of your belongings

quartz shuttle
#

anyone down for multiplayer bz?

#

(there is a mod that isnt nitrox for bz)

strange wharf
#

What mod? Link?

quartz shuttle
#

there is one mod

#

i have to look first tho...

quartz shuttle
strange wharf
#

I found it

strange wharf
#

I appreciate the invite

quartz shuttle
#

oh

strange wharf
#

Revisiting the first game

#

Played it along ago during early access

quartz shuttle
#

how was early access?

strange wharf
#

I enjoyed it a lot. I started playing it in 2015.

#

Very, very buggy

quartz shuttle
#

i mean like

strange wharf
#

It was basically a sandbox with building and exploration

quartz shuttle
#

10 years is a lot

#

was there an end goal?

strange wharf
#

I don’t think the story was anywhere close to finished

quartz shuttle
#

ok

#

imma not spoiler then

strange wharf
#

I think it was mostly non existent

#

Like in terms of “missions”

quartz shuttle
#

well its optional

#

my best advice is: just go deeper until there are no more peepers

strange wharf
#

I’ve revisited the game later in early access like in 2017 ish

#

I know mostly what happens

quartz shuttle
#

ah ok

#

does Sea emperor ring a bell?

strange wharf
#

Yeah

quartz shuttle
#

Degasi?

strange wharf
#

Yup

#

||cure||

quartz shuttle
#

Maugerite Maida

strange wharf
#

Yup. She’s in BZ too

quartz shuttle
#

she swam on a reaper

#

thats terrifying

strange wharf
#

I think she killed the reaper and ate it to survive

quartz shuttle
#

yes

strange wharf
#

Playing the both games again feels like almost a different game than when I played it last

#

So much new stuff

#

Than early access

quartz shuttle
#

yes

#

was there a seaglide?

strange wharf
#

In 2015? I don’t remember

#

I would think so

quartz shuttle
#

was the cyclops the model it is now?

strange wharf
#

When I first started playing I remember tons of the recipes needing “unobtainium”

#

And came out later

quartz shuttle
#

titanium?

strange wharf
quartz shuttle
#

thats crazy

#

its like a mobile base

strange wharf
#

Unobtainium

quartz shuttle
#

so those were just locked recipes?

strange wharf
#

Yeah

quartz shuttle
#

ah

strange wharf
#

You could see them but couldn’t make it

quartz shuttle
#

its like a dlc but worse

strange wharf
#

It was a sandbox

quartz shuttle
#

yeah

strange wharf
#

Fun to build bases and such. As well as explore

quartz shuttle
#

wait hold up

strange wharf
#

The void used to have a bottom too

quartz shuttle
#

was there sunbeam in 2017?

strange wharf
#

I don’t remember

#

Probably

quartz shuttle
#

do you know what happens to it

strange wharf
#

Yeah

quartz shuttle
#

||it explodes||

strange wharf
#

Yeah

quartz shuttle
#

and with a mod the garg eats it

strange wharf
#

Yeah I’ve seen that

quartz shuttle
#

terrifying

strange wharf
#

Wish it was cannon

quartz shuttle
#

true

strange wharf
#

I’m playing through again. 3 hours in.

quartz shuttle
#

#

You know I never really understand why we can add storage locker to our life pods 🤔

weak marten
shy python
steel stream
#

You can build floating lockers before you get habitat builder...

weak marten
#

you can also build an I conpartment with lockers

steel stream
#

Was about to say that next

steel shoal
#

Make a compartment above water and you won't need any power

#

For oxygen, at least

steel stream
#

You don't necessarily need power for storage space underwater either (just have to mind oxygen even when inside)

weak marten
#

or build a solar panel its not that expensive

steel stream
#

If extra storage is all you want at that point

nocturne magnet
weak marten
#

yeah i just foundit floating like that

nocturne magnet
#

omg

#

ts is crazy

weak marten
#

i found these weird rock formations

next current
#

OSWEG is playing one of the Early Access builds before the Stasis Rifle was cut from the game.

#

In fact, I think that's the 1.1 build.

weak marten
#

im kinda stuck, i have send the rocket and now i dont know what to do

#

anyway i figured it out

eternal garnet
#

OSWEG is playing a really old EA version, 9892

weak marten
#

i just wanted a blast in the past you know

eternal garnet
#

did the old story? do ea8.1 on steam

weak marten
#

i dont know exacty what you mean but i have the old story

#

i see the alien base from here lol

eternal garnet
#

never finished, it was to have the ending of old story

weak marten
#

yeah i got the builder tool and i think i couldnt progress no more

Where a good place for hardcore survival to build in 🤔

distant flicker
#

How do I pronounce cryptosuchus

strange wharf
#

What are the differences? I assume 2 is when they began changing the story?

bold monolith
#

8.1 was made for experimental players at the time.

#

For them to be able to switch from the experimental version to that one, to keep playing their save.

#

Because experimental was going to change for the new story from that point.

#

You can't.

#

He is playing the first early access build. The ||endgame base|| was larger.

#

I don't know why it says February. Since it released on January 30th. Unless they're using EA2. Maybe there was an update for EA1 in February.

weak marten
#

ok so i downloaded the earliest version with the whole story, I'm exited

strange wharf
strange wharf
weak marten
#

or better said early access 8.1

strange wharf
#

Nice

#

Is early access 9 where they began to change the story?

weak marten
#

i dont really know

eternal garnet
weak marten
#

i played the old story vsited the glacial basin and got bored

eternal garnet
#

it was even more of a maze then

weak marten
#

yeah i was clueless on what to do for like 10 times

eternal garnet
#

and two bridges. 3?

weak marten
#

a brigde at glacialbasin? i did not saw any

eternal garnet
#

pretty sure two. But not broken, as I remember

weak marten
#

now I'm curios what the whole map looks like, I'm gonna explore it with freecam now

shy python
#

Any work around this 🤔

steel stream
#

Built farther away from the lilypads🤷‍♂️

eternal garnet
#

could also be something inside

steel stream
#

Oh right, the roots/leaves would be yellow if they were the issue (I guess)

eternal garnet

no guarantee for that

#

Anyone down to start a fresh save in below zero, for multiplayer?

tall hollow
#

Does multiplayer work well? @junior ridge

junior ridge
#

Below Zero almost perfect, wit its latest release features, tho for sub 1 or normal, its buggy

tall hollow
#

@junior ridge I might look into it this evening if I don't end up being busy. That sounds really fun actually. I'm sure it will be a pain to mod on linux though haha.

junior ridge
#

I cant remember if it supported by Linux?

#

Though i got like 5 hours til i go to school

tall hollow
#

I can run the windows version through proton as long as the mod will install. I don't use windows.

#

i'll test it out maybe

turbid crest
#

yall i wanna get below zero once but i cant run subnautica that much, gotta get below 1080p to get 60 fps, can i get the same amount of fps on below zero on same settings as normal subnautica?

im about to make a speedrun and be on the leaderboard

#

where do i find nickel?

#

im in the crystal caves and my seatruck and prawn are both at the depth limit despite the depth upgrades

bold monolith
#

This is not Below Zero.

frigid lava
gray wren
#

didnt find any in crystal caves, i should probably go back then

frigid lava
#

u can use the mineral finder to sniff out nickle down the crystal caves too

#

iirc there are some there

broken badge
# gray wren didnt find any in crystal caves, i should probably go back then

Nickel is also on the walls of the lilypad caves. It’s not that rare tbh, just have to recognize what it looks like. And yes you can also find in the place with the big cotton anemones as well

Personally I don’t like the mineral detector finder thing, the range is very small. I’d rather build a nearby scanner room with HUD chip and make use of that, but whatever way works for you.

gray wren
#

welp, time to get down there then (or rather up there, i saved before entering the crystal caves)

tall hollow
gray wren
#

are memes allowed on this chat?

nocturne magnet

No

gray wren
#

i found the specific memes chat now

brave vessel
#

is there a shock upgrade for the sea truck like there is for the seamoth?

#

i miss my seamoth

tall hollow
brave vessel
#

so it's a module and not an upgrade?

tall hollow
#

its an upgrade i dont want to spoil but you can get it for free pretty early in game

brave vessel
#

oh good. the chelicerates have munched my poor seatruck so many times

Guys, where should I go to report a bug for Subnotica Billow Zero?

nocturne magnet

You gotta interact with the bot

bold monolith
#

It's broken currently.

nocturne magnet
#

Really?

bold monolith
#

So I guess here.

#

The last report was made in January.

#

You would expect it would have a more recent date.

Fair enough

Is their a reason why my sub below keeps freezing while trying to save

I'm on Xbox one

i just did it accidentally 😭

is it recommended to finish subnautica before playing below zero

feral coyote
#

despite all the things i find wrong with it, it looks better than the first game

#

@latent moss since forwards dont ping for some reason

latent moss
#

What?

strange wharf
#

@latent moss The graphics look much better in Below Zero

strange wharf
latent moss
#

Oh ok

#

But hell yeah the the water is going to look better

strange wharf
#

Game is great, but the story is much better in the first

latent moss
#

But also don't you have more stuff to do on land in below zero?

strange wharf
#

Yes

#

Take the prawn suit with you whenever you on land

#

If a long distance

latent moss
#

is there no vehicle like the Cyclops?

strange wharf
latent moss
#

That's sad

strange wharf
#

Yeah

#

The map is designed for the sea truck

#

It works well

latent moss
#

So the map is smaller?

strange wharf
#

Significantly

feral coyote
latent moss
#

Is there still a void

strange wharf
#

Yes

feral coyote
strange wharf
#

Land and sea voids

latent moss
#

God I hate the void

feral coyote
strange wharf
#

The map is still fairly larger

strange wharf
#

There’s lots of exploration to do

latent moss
#

"entering ecological dead zone adding report to databank" got me sweating buckets into the ocean

feral coyote
strange wharf
latent moss
#

Why would they change the PDA voice it's still altera

strange wharf
#

It’s very noticeable

latent moss
#

I thought it's on the same planet

feral coyote
#

alterra is involved in the story but lets just say in a bit of a negative way

latent moss
#

So is below zero during a ice age or just on one of the poles of the planet

feral coyote
latent moss
latent moss
#

The game seems fun

feral coyote
#

anyways you mostly work with knockoff alterra equipment
im interested to see your reaction to the pda voice

latent moss
#

What does that mean?

feral coyote
#

it works the same in gameplay though

latent moss
#

That's funny knock-off alterra equipment

Hot take: squidsharks aren't alien enough they even have the same colour scheme as real sharks

#

I don't like how swimming is slow in this game (idc if it's more realistic and ik why they made it slower)

gonna stream bz join vc if want

nvm

Ah

Im thinking of the ice that is below the ice sheets

bold monolith
#

I figured. They're also called brinicles.

wooden crescent
#

well i hope thats not real lolll

bold monolith
#

But here the person asked for the “mob”.

wooden crescent
#

Yeah we added the map mod again, Tired of the ||AL-AN|| voice and the PDA one

I feel like im in the minority that likes just about everything about below zero more.

||Why were the sea emperor juveniles removed? The sea emperor was the main part of sub1 why were the juveniles removed if the games are connected? The sea emperor is basically the coolest character in the whole subnautica franchise.. I dont understand why remove them?||

weak marten
#

i think there was some kind of bug that they couldn't fix but it was so long ago i forgot already

knotty pelican
#

sad..

weak marten
#

hold up ignis types

nocturne magnet
#

Atleast thats what andy said

bold monolith
#

There were cut after the story rework. And later when they reintroduced the notion of the ||antidote||, the model wasn't put back. It would have made more sense than the current recipe.

knotty pelican
#

sigh

#

i love the sea emperor sad to not see it in bz

#

maybe in sub2 steamhappy

bold monolith
#

SN2 is on another planet.

knotty pelican
#

WHAT

#

no one told me

weak marten

i also dont think they could just travel casually trough the void without getting killed lol

how do you not know 😭

Its been confirmed multiple tomes

yeah multiple tomes already

molten cosmos
#

After ||being eaten one too many times by the leviathan in the crystal caves||, how do i survive it easier? It munches my seatruck 24/7

weak marten
#

seatruck perimeter system

molten cosmos
weak marten
#

it lays on the floor

molten cosmos
weak marten
#

yeah its kinda small

molten cosmos
weak marten
#

met her in the greenhouse yet?

molten cosmos
#

I have

#

is that why i didnt find it the first time?

#

I havent come back since

weak marten
#

then you can explore the 2nd part of the base that the snow stalker blocked

molten cosmos
#

yep indeed

weak marten
#

and no the module is always there

molten cosmos
#

and I just found the module (thank god)

#

damn she got a whole bathroom

molten cosmos
weak marten
#

its the smae as in SN1

molten cosmos
#

smae?

#

Not sure if I had that

weak marten
#

i meant same sorry

molten cosmos
#

same as on cyclopse or on seamoth?

weak marten
#

cyclops has a temporary sheild that you can either turn on or off, this one functions just like the seamoth one does

molten cosmos
#

i havent played with that module before. But I guess u just shock it when it starts munching?

weak marten
#

yes if it starts munching just use it and he will let you go

molten cosmos
#

bet

#

50 dmg -> 10 dmg is an improvement fs

weak marten
#

not even 10 more like 6 lol

molten cosmos
#

even better

#

tbf i feel like SNBL leviathans are less scary than SN

weak marten
#

they are a lot less scary then in SN1 defiantly

molten cosmos
#

Question: can you put multiple of the same seatruck modules on the seatruck?

fading panther
#

yes

molten cosmos
#

is there like no max lenght? xD

fading panther
#

nope

molten cosmos

molten cosmos
#

for the love of god i cant find 3rd ultra high capacity o2 tank fragment

eternal garnet
molten cosmos
#

like idk what to do next. My prawn is maxed with all modules, so is my seatruck

eternal garnet
#

game doesn't hold your hand a lot, no.
It expects: exploration and reading most of the PDAs

#

this chat will help if you describe your progress

molten cosmos
#

but yeah, ive been ||in crystal caves and found the end (red part) of it, with an architect building where i have to construct the body, i have almost all blueprints i believe||

eternal garnet
#

"almost all". If you say which one is missing I can give hints. See bottom of blueprints

molten cosmos
#

but I know there is some from a data box i'm missing since ive seen a steam achievement

eternal garnet
#

k. Have you found a ||big monster in ice? Have you cured it?||

molten cosmos
eternal garnet
#

mm. This area is not super friendly. It's in the south part of the ice. South-west. I made a picture guide if you like

molten cosmos
eternal garnet
#

not it. You probably scanned the phi wall map. Trees area, bottom left

molten cosmos
#

1 was ||all the way in the back||

eternal garnet
#

hoping you mean 2 maps

#

it goes in pda under info/ maps

molten cosmos
eternal garnet
#

So this is the actual ingame map you can scan into the PDA. Find the tree area. North end of it. Important Thing

molten cosmos
eternal garnet
#

And, Sam made a red mark on that, for where she hid the cure

#

neither of this is required, but gives achievement

#

it's also very cool to see

molten cosmos
eternal garnet
#

no

#

it's for the cure

molten cosmos
#

oh

#

yeah i wouldve never found that one

eternal garnet
#

there isn't one for finding the creature. Should be

molten cosmos
#

also, the ||snowfox||

#

i have the blueprint, but no clue were to craft it

eternal garnet
#

you build a charge pad. There. It doesn't need a base or power

#

build it near phi dock or something

molten cosmos
#

i know i scanned that before, but cant find it either

eternal garnet
#

builder tool

molten cosmos
#

oh yep im just blind

#

@eternal garnet pinguin research

#

how do i know when i have the thing im looking for

eternal garnet
#

it's big. Bigger than glow whale. it's in ice

#

the cure though, is hidden in a cave you need spy pengling for. Near the lake

molten cosmos
#

i just dont see what i need from here

eternal garnet
#

not a lot

molten cosmos
#

sure i got some resources i havent found often

#

but that's about it

eternal garnet
#

This is the right pengling cave

molten cosmos
#

yea no i was just checking some random caves

#

ohhh there is a map

#

i thought it was just some random art

#

@eternal garnet my snowfox just went for a swim in the ground, anythin I can do?

eternal garnet
#

awgh. No. Look up when deploying it

molten cosmos
#

damn breh

#

in SN1 I could unload terrain to get my seamoth out of the ground

#

not possible here?

eternal garnet
#

no. Save often

molten cosmos
#

19 mins since last save Sadge

#

oh well will do this tomorrow

#

i didnt lose that much tbf

#

i lost 1 lubricant, 3 titanium and 2 silver

south sparrow
#

guys quick question

#

should I make my base in the deep lilypads cave/cotton anemone cave or the tree spires?

fast rapids
#

imo lilypad is safer bcuz there is ||something|| in the tree spires

south sparrow
#

tbh I kinda like the idea of having a chelicerate as a neighbour lol. I think they're cool but you're right lilypad is def safer

steel shoal
#

I like the Lilypads more because of the music

dense lantern
#

With beak

#

Fish bird

fast rapids
tall hollow
#

I prefer lilypads every resource can be found within scanner range from there

fast rapids
#

I hate looking for lead there

#

so annoying

tall hollow
#

@fast rapids if you mean lead at lilypads its everywhere on the floating rocks 🙂

fast rapids
#

Yeah but like- It often glitches and I cant mine the Galena, and My base is always in the trench seperating the lilly pads and red mushrooms (anemo or smth idk 😭)

tall hollow
#

yeah i noticed that but theres so many its usually more thna I need

#

I always have mine on the floating rocks because it looks cool but I think this game im gonna make it on the seafloor below the pads near the crystal caves entrance

dusky lotus

Table coral is pretty common in || twisty bridges and on the floating lilypad rocks || you can find diamonds really early in game (this is big spoiler so only click if you want a hint) || right near the delta dock beacon you'll get a pda note about rare minerals in the caves below, you're in the right place if there is lave plumes, you can get it very early there ||

Thats what i have been trying to do

I've never had such a good game run so poorly

I am so angry I cant see straight. I have put well over 500 hours into both games and I run into a problem that is so obvious and simple...

Is this discord modded by the actual developers?

do they interact?

I am not getting a single prompt to construct or deconstruct any of this. For all I know this is permanently stuck the way it is and my save file is ruined

# tranquil meteor And the leviathans in Subnautica 1 still clip through the walls as if they weren...

That is not a bug, it's intentional. Collisions only exist near the player, so creatures far away can clip through the terrain all the time. They can clip out whenever they feel like, as the collisions are one-way. This might sound dumb, but this is a feature they put in place, to significantly reduce lag. Leviathans are always further away than they seem, which is why it seems to mostly happen with them. This still happens in BZ.

does anyone have good tips to get past the shadow leviathans in the crystal caves without getting torn to shreds?

@steel shoal I was unable to build a hatch to enter it. I managed to deconstruct the panels from a hyper specific angle by looking up from the below the structure. I play both Subnautica and Below Zero on Steam.

Just use the overpowered perimeter defense.

does it work against them? ive never tried it

Yes

k thx

elfin cairn

i feel like certain resources are much more dificult to obtain in bz

likeanything other than titanium

eternal garnet

yes, And table coral

elfin cairn
#

yeah, you have to go to that one canyon sort of

#

and i was trying to go to "Pilot - last tracked location" or something and drowned near that big ship thing

weak marten
tranquil meteor
#

Galena is as common as dirt. Lead isn't hard to find. Whenever I do a new game in either Subnautica or Below Zero, I try and get the Scanner Room and HUD chip as soon as possible. The HUD chip is far and away the most powerful item in the game and it makes resource farming significantly easier.

#

One thing I do miss from Subnautica 1 is the large mineral deposits for Lead, Magnetite and Lithium.

||artifact q59 is in kopa mine|| right 🤔

No

who do i trust

Do we have the repulsion cannon tho?

elfin cairn

there is propulstion

tranquil meteor

Stasis rifle is rightfully absent. Charlie did not want it at all in the first game. It really does break the game.

how do i scan leviathan

I need to make a trip their and do a mining session their 🤣🤣🤣🤣

#

Rember being lots of raw ores down their

#

That made me set for the rest of the game

It also has an invaluable upgrade for the prawn suit

Also idk why subnautica won't let us place plant shells in the green walls 🤔

lots of crystals

but i doubt this is the deepest

tranquil meteor

then the third one is in the deep lilypad islands

molten cosmos
#

heh

tranquil meteor
#

That area is wild. It is far and away the coolest biome. Second only to the lost river.

#

The music is really good as well. It's peak Subnautica.

molten cosmos
#

am I not meant to be in the crystal caves?

tranquil meteor
#

You are

#

There is one...

molten cosmos
#

well I am in the crystal caves

tranquil meteor
#

oh man, I forgot. There is also a body component in the arctic spires. You'll have to do some land traversal

molten cosmos
#

I have all the components bro

tranquil meteor
#

oh. Then yea. You take the blueprint ingredients to a very low point in the crystal caves

molten cosmos
#

i found that already as well

#

but idk where to get materials for the components

tranquil meteor
#

what materials do you need?

molten cosmos
#

Root pustule idk how to get

#

the rest is easy

tranquil meteor
#

Go to any kelp forest and look for crevices

#

those will take you to Sea Monkey hide outs. There are roots

molten cosmos
#

oh is it that easy

tranquil meteor
#

yes

molten cosmos
#

alright thanks, will do that after grabbing dinner

elfin cairn
#

nice i made seatruck

tranquil meteor
#

💪

#

It always feels good to get the truck or seamoth, no matter how many times I play Subnautica. The magic of the game is building up to that level of power from literally nothing.

elfin cairn
#

yeah

elfin cairn
#

when do i get habitat builder

bold monolith
#

When you scan it.

elfin cairn
#

Is that like later in the playthrough or early

bold monolith
#

It depends where, there are five fragments.

#

You just need to find one.

elfin cairn
#

Alr thanks

tranquil meteor
#

There should be one around the delta station as well as outpost zero

molten cosmos
#

but @tranquil meteor is there no area below the crystal caves?

tranquil meteor
#

The fabricator caverns are below, but i guesss that technically counts as crystal caves.

tranquil meteor
#

yes

molten cosmos
#

I was using an online map to find the way down to the cache and it shows a lower area

eternal garnet
#

it's not below, it's connected and a bit deeper

molten cosmos
#

But I dont understand, i've roamed the entire thing and didnt find any 'deeper' caves

tall hollow
# elfin cairn bro idk what people are on about bz is fun

I like both games. Opinion only here - I think the map is prettier and I like the seatruck way more. I played the first one for 10 hours or so and I always just end up booting into below zero (probably 100 hours or so i've played)

elfin cairn

How do I know when I found all architect artifacts?

after #10, there are no rewards except the possible ion cube

#

These are all ive got

eternal garnet

the last reward I think is teleporter

#

im p sure i dont have that

#

so i got no clue which ones im missing

it's a truck module

what is up with BZ having ||like two storylines, like I feel like you dont even have to find your sister at all ||(marked as spoiler for those who havent played/beaten BZ)

eternal garnet
#

There was some drama, the writer quit before it was finished. So it was rewritten, trying to reuse game elements already designed

#

This was also during peak COVID

steel shoal
#

And players were very discontent with the gameplay at the time

boreal venture
#

I left one uncompleted and left world😂

eternal garnet
#

the story was scrapped and redone by a new writer

#

You xcan play the old story on steam, missing only the very end

#

It's quite strange

#

But hey, so is the current story

boreal venture
#

true true

nocturne magnet
#

It still interests me

eternal garnet
#

I have never seen details

nocturne magnet
#

Well, I thought there was much more so

eternal garnet
#

I think I read that the old story tested badly, in early access. Players weren't liking it

nocturne magnet
#

Cuz the EA was bad?

eternal garnet
#

Maybe partly. Some old YT videos maybe

#

Personally I think the main reasos are a talking protagonist, who also isn't alone. Talking can ruin immersion, that feeling the protagonist is me

nocturne magnet
#

I see

cursive folio
#

I just finished BZ the other night and thought it was charming :) a little inconsistent story-wise but I also figured there was some strife in the writing room or COVID happened or some combination of things like that

I liked the story in SB1 much more, but I liked finding all the audio logs of the BZ crew who abandoned the station before you arrived... It was much less depressing than the first game where I knew everyone was dead. But that sense of desolation & isolation was also very compelling + thematically it cohered with a protagonist who was stranded. I thought it was interesting that the team took it a different direction in BZ! I'm not sure which I would prefer more, like which would i choose in a fantasy land where I control the next narrative lmao

I also prefer a talking protagonist + spoilers -> ||There's An Alien In My Head is one of my ultimate catnips and I'll shove aside a lot of complaints if there's an Alien In My Head plot / subplot. I lowkey thought AL-AN was gonna be a bad guy, but it turned into a lovely interspecies friendship, which is another big weak point of mine.|| When playing Subnautica especially, I love to sort of immerse myself as A Scientist Exploring The World and having my scanner around and scanning things is no joke the highlight of both games to me.

Not sure if I have a point to make, just sharing my thoughts as I just finished and am all abuzz about it!

nocturne magnet
#

Holy wall text

#

(Not saying im lazy to read it, i just didnt think it would be that long)

eternal garnet
#

I just remembered ||Al-an in your head|| was also in the old story. Early on though he was also angry and threatening. Hence the voice in that song. It got changed early

does anyone have the map that ignis sent that shows when the void stops

feral coyote
#

wait i sent that in bz chat
i thought i sent it in sn chat wth 😭

forest charm
#

why does BZ have the void???

#

i get that its the end of the playable area but in SN there was an explanation at least

forest charm
feral coyote
#

the explanation is that its just the end of the crater
same with bz

forest charm
#

wait the BZ map is also a crater?

feral coyote
#

its just the edge of whatever cold place youre at (probably the poles)

forest charm
#

oh

feral coyote
#

its like
theres points in greenland where you could start sailing and go to antarctica
theres just so much water inbetween them

#

for a game that basically counts as endless void

#

think of it like a place on the shore of greenland yeah

forest charm
#

yeah most of the planet is made up of "The Void" with exeptions like the Volcano and BZ it just never made sense to me why BZ had the big dropoff and so many underwater areas

#

i kinda just assumed BZ was a mountain or something

feral coyote
forest charm
#

yeah makes sense

feral coyote
#

not every glacier chain or whatever just suddenly ends with an abrupt cutoff

so is the pilots last known location kind of like the lifepod locations in the first game?

Yeah sorry lol. Also (lol) we are like 40% through the game and just found the high capacity tank lmaoooooo

#

we found the prawn suit before the high capacity tank

eternal garnet

it's a fabricator "feature". ignore

Especially when you consider kharaa means they went through a near extinction event

bold monolith
#

Definitively a feature, but while it's often caused by the fabricator it isn't specific to it.

#

It happens when the power rate is inferior to -2.6, which is a very arbitrary number.

#

It was even adjusted after this ticket.

eternal garnet
#

I definitely put some unknown coefficients in code sometimes. Tweak numbers

cursive folio
# forest charm ok i kinda understand, thanks

NP! It’s a source of fascination to me so I like to talk about it. this video has a really good basic explanation for it as well— once you’re a certain distance from land there is generally a sharp increase in the depth of water called the continental shelf + continental slope… really cool if you have a minute to spare!
