#below-zero-chat
1 messages · Page 336 of 1
I mostly played the fragments of EA, and never quite stuck out the full game, instead taking turns with a friend, so I'm tempted to try again
just asking if anyoone wants to watch almost the full old story of below zero lmk
i found videos
Belown zero or sun nbautica
I love Sun nbautica.
Sun Banana
Bus buntinub
Why is this... on my feed
Im doing my second playthrough of bz and realizing ive once again chosen the wprst biome possible for a base, i did the same thing in my first sn1 playthrough
Both times i did the starting zone for my 1st playthrough and then i did mountains and now deep lilypads i could not be further from everything
And im hurting for titanium 💔 but i will pull through because its sosoososos pretty down here
I started building my base before i could even bring my seatruck as deep as it lmaooo
there is a below zero multiplayer mod?
Yea
how did i not know about this spectacular creation
Its in the subnautica modding channel
I didnt know until like a week ago
i always thought nitrox would be the ones to make it
but thats kind of dead now isnt it
Prob
never finished bz
Do we have info on if it will be online only like Fallout 76?
Two things one where do I get ||root postules|| and two are ||shadow leviathans a danger when in prawn suit like how you were safe from ghosts in the first game if you were in a prawn||
I found out the first thing bust still curious about the second thing
they are a minor danger. No good defense against them, unless in the truck
A joke only germans will get, hope this will make you giggle
Gosh I hate those leviathans it broke my seatruck and now I have to remake all the upgrades and the seatruck and also my modules are down there
erm. Learn to use Perimeter defense
it's very effective
You could also save often, and reload if it happens
If you use the perimeter defense fast enough you can get them off before they do any damage at all, and if in the prawn idk ive never been picked up by one in a praw but maybe the drill arm works?
I did but it snuck up on me
It does I almost killed one I think with the prawn
Do they respawn I may go kill all 4 to make my life easier in the future
Even hitting perimeter defense right after they grab you can save your truck from like 40 damage i messed up the first few times but i always havemy trigger finger ready for it now
they do not
Can you kill those stupid ground spike trap things i hate them andi have one outside my house i want it to die
build a foundation on top
Bet
horribly inconvenient base location but the vibes are immaculate
I wish I could lower the fog because my base is also peak but because it’s on land you can’t see it because of the fog
The fog in bz is very intense even underwater u can only see about 100m ahead but i can imagine getting any visual at all on land is hit or miss with the weather lol
There was alot of cute spots in the glacial basin thst could have made a cool base but its just so much to navigate it wasnt worth it for me
I’m in the Lilly pad islands it is peak
who thinks Below Zero is overhated
do ribbon plants respawn
because the batteries in this game are much more valuable than sn1
No, but you can cut them for seeds and plant them
To clarify, wild plants don't respawn, but those you can grow are basically infinite
I had no clue bout that
I thought they respawned
overhated? maybe
but ultimately they 1000% missed really really key gameplay loops that the original game had which really just causes it to be a decent bit of a worse game
who else fuels their base with penglings
Nobody
I did in early game, but I have graduated to using the thermal plants
you can't
Can someone tell me where I can find the laser cutter in subnautica below zero
sea monkey nests
Thanks
of course!
Noot fish, my friend
In addition to sea monkey nests, there are also laser cutter fragments in kelp forest caves, and in koppa mining site
Thanks🐟
how do i know how far am into the game? i have this (havent played for a while)
you're definitely playing the game 👍

idk how far along you are but you're gaming
you get the antidote with a penguin robot that's all i remember honestly
The game is not exactly linear: there are basically 3 story lines, and even those you can partly do in different orders in different playthroughs
no dive suit so not too far into the game
yeah just checked and i finished the ||her sister story||
For the progress in main story, check your pda blueprints tab, and how many of the bottom three you have...
yeah that ends with finding the antidote
tho 3 endings? i swear there was 2 only
oh yeah is there a ||voice in your head that calls you studd muffin||
There is only one ending for the game
one ending with 2 ways you can take to reach it
ah
Basically the main story ||Al-An and building a body|| and two side stories ||Sam and Marquerite||, and these sort of overlap each other partly
i looove the early game and hate the late game in bz
i dislike the early game and love the end game in sn1
Whilst bz isn't as good as sn1 its still not a bad game, yes it falls flat on a few aspects, but it's still another good entry to the subnautica series
I turned it off but also turned off achievements but it doesn’t matter bc I’m on switch and don’t have achievements
The kelp forest in bz looks so horrid compared to sn1
no, i do hate it. I'm not 11 i know the difference. i couldn't actually bring myself to finish over 50% of the game because of how bored i was but i still had 3 playthroughs just for the early game
If you turn the weather effects off the game looks 10x better (this image is taken from the purple vents)
i plan on doing that too sometime, i finished subnautica for the first time 2 months ago i think because i kept getting stuck in the lava zone and didnt know how to leave and just deleted the save xd
I also just beat below zero and I genuinely loved it
since i have summer vacation and nothing else better to do i guess ill beat subnautica below zero for the first time
the trailer for the sbz release was peak
what's the name of the guy from the trailer
and can you find his chat logs
Fred?
yes
Yeah he has chat logs. Loads
You can even find his shaving kit
can i pick it up and place it
Yes
I think that's fred the seatruck cargo guy he has alot of logs and some neat furniture when you find his room
i saw his furniture, i can really make use of it in an office
I just like the unique beds i used his bed until i found the cooler one in parvan's room later on
out of topic but do u prefer 1.00 gamma or 0.80 gamma
Uhhh idk i use the default one
I kinda like the extreme brightness its realistic to the brightness of sun on snow
i use lower to make it more filmic
I think all mt graphics are default i dont play with them too much, the only setting i looked for was a way to turn the temperature to celcius lmaoooo
bro. (context: at the time i had finished subnautica and and started below zero) my dad started playing and he got really far into the game and he just had to restart because ||the bridge|| just doesnt exist anymore, like it just glitched out 😭
He was playing it kinda out of order tho (like he literally went to the || frozen leviathan|| before he got a rebreather. He also briefly went to the ||crystal caverns|| just because he wanted to get some Kyanite so he could get the Seatruck depth upgrade MK3 just for fun, he wasnt even needing)
I got all of the depth upgrades randomly
What are his toughts on the absolute travesty that is the "story"
I'm being to much of a wimp to get MK3 Lol
I don't think he acctually understands much of it Lol. he only listens to the PDAs and doesn't do any reading 😅
So hes better off than those who do read it
nah. he's constantly asking questions
and when he went to the ||crystal caverns|| he didn't have a rebreather yet either Lol
Has he pieced together that all three of the main characters are idiots? Plus alan, who is kinda just there
I dont think so. he's gone to all the alterra outposts but hasnt found 6 architect artifacts
Also I've gone to the ||arctic spires cache|| and I think I've gone to all of the Alterra outposts except for ||outpost zero|| (the one on land, not the one where you find|| AL-AN||) and I have just been chilling for a while and I was wondering when ||Marguerit|| was going to talk to me again. the last time she spoke to me was at the ||greenhouse|| or even ||AL-AN||. I have nothing to do Lol 😭 I just want to progress 😭😅 😭 😭
I don't know how you're supposed to get them 
I randomly unlocked a ton of stuff, and someone said I did a dev thing, but I have no clue what they meant or what I did
Probably they thought you used the dev tools to cheat the unlock
I also did that but because it was my 2nd playthrough and i wanted the ghost leviathan bed right away
I needed to drip my base out like crazy
And the reaper poster is a requirement for finishing the game to me 
can i use penglings as biofuel
Anyone else hate the running/walking animation for robin?
https://gyazo.com/3e80e230465394a3e725dba0bab379f2
I don't really mind it
I'm not looking down all the time so it isn't that bad for me
nice man
its def weird
its not a bad game
its just less good than the og subnautica in many peoples opinion because of less wrecks and less stuff in the map
I'm enjoying it so far 
whats the point of the location of margaret when she told us to stay of her land
I went to that location like 4 times and there's nothing
one time I got eaten by a chelicerate there
You mean the 'pilot's last known location' marker? That's where your pda lost track of her (because she went in a cave)
do I need the 125 o2 tank and sea truck depth mk1
The target is below 300m, but there are oxygen plants on the way
High capacity tank and rebreather very much recommended, yes
Look for small i compartment and crane platform in twisty bridges canyon, depth 150-180 meters
yo do i need to get ||Alan|| before going to ||maida's base?||
i just ||cured the frozen leviathan||, what do i do now story-wise? if i go to Marguerit's base will there be a cutscene or something?
Have you already gone?
gone where?
marguerit's base
im on my way
have you gone once already or nah?
yeah
Have you disabled the comms tower?
yes
what about alan's parts
i have the first two
alan is really the only thing left in the story
oh ok
frozen leviathan was the side story
ooohhhh thanks 🙂
does AL-AN talk to me and tell me about the cache or do i just have to go and find it myself?
subnautica bz on phone when?
He will give a hint when you're nearby
oh ok
i googled how deep i needed to go, and i need to craft depth upgrade MK3 😭
and i have no idea where to get Kyanite or nickle 😭 😅
ive had nickle before because you need two to build the prawn but i have no idea where those two came from 😭 😅 😂 🤦 😭 😅
Prawn doesn't need nickel
(Some upgrades need, but not crafting the vehicle itself)
Have you played the game before?
Have you gone to the deep purple vents?
i have to say, the void in bz is much much scarier than the void in sn1
ghosties are chill and really not that scary ngl but the void chelis got me force quitting the game
Going deep in bz is creepy
how to get to greenhouse ?
Seriously. I glitched out of bounds in the surface where you find the leviathan frozen and my prawn suit flung me into the ocean
Pretty scary when you hear entering dead zone
And seeing those guys with those beaks move around
how do I get plastel ingot
Titanium ingot and Lithium
Shale outcrops. They can be found in Deeper areas like the ||Jelly shroom caves||
this is bz chat..
how much m
I don’t know off the top of my head but more than 200. Also look out for the squidshark and spikey traps
ok thank
After disabling the radio/satellite tower, go 1 km east and search for iceberg with light sticks
reminds me of the time i jumped off the sea treader's path thinking it was the grand reef
it was the edge
im surprised due to how close the sea treaders are to the void the ghosts don't snatch them into the void and eat them
Maybe they do
Navigating would be more accurate if you install a compass
you drive to it usually..
Some artifacts are in caves and you cannot just drive towards the beacon all the time. Iirc X3J is in west, above water (driving just straight towards beacon gets you close)
someone said it's in crystal caves bro I'm not getting eaten by a leviathan
There are no artifacts in the crystal caves.
||body components and fabricator facility|| there Is.
Some of the alien artefacts can be annoying to find because the cave entrance can be hunderds of m away from the signal u honestly just have to scour the area till you find a cave and hope its the right one
Although many of them are in caves you would be visiting anyway for story or loot
If u have been to delta station and found the map, use a compass and the map to locate the ||koppa mining facility (closest to delta on the map)|| it has diamonds and is only around 150m
what is this
there is one thing that BZ does that has always annoyed me and is unforgivable, much as i defend the game
you can't loot this locker
Back in ye' old days of Early Access (Before the Delta Station was even its name) you used to be able to use those lockers.
As well as the beds.
And fabricator.
How about not being able to scan the medical kit fabricator?
That's not buildable in BZ, just a decoration in a certain POI
I know; it was a comment about things annoying players
Oh, I see
I think I've also seen an OG radio on the ground near Marg's base
Can't scan it either
the decorative medical kit fabricator annoys me a lot less. i unno
is robin slower than ryley 😭
The lockers are an item in the game and there's no real visual reason this one shouldn't be functional
yes
legs got debuffed
its slower
😭
for good reason though
the map is smal/
mhm
smaller but denser
I see
S1 is full of large expanses of dirt and nothin'
there's always something everywhere you go in BZ
There is another biome with ghosts next to it too
The deep grand reef
So im 8/100 hours into my BZ playthrough
and im wondering if I should restart
since I turned story off
so 1. no music discs
Music discs helped me get through the ||crystal caverns||
Because the unknown is more scary than up close, because you never know if it is behind you
Anyways it can’t get me in the tiny caves
I feel like the thought of subnautica one made below zero scary
This game isnt scary at all but thinking abt the horrors i went through made me a bit anxious exploring
yeah beside crystal caves and maybe vent gardens I didn't find any biome to be scary atmosphere wise, most are too vibrant
The thermal vents were scary because of the noise the weird lil dudes there made but once you turned and saw one comically loping towards you all fear was lost
"Brooo you're sooo loud" me during half of my bz playthrough
Is subnautica two gonna have roaming leviathans
In the first half of my first play through i was scared half to death thinking a reaper can roam into a grassy plateau
They absolutely can : )
help
This doesn't look like below zero...
It doesn't look like a good version either.
It doesn’t look like good driving either
And what's with that tool loadout? Terrible
What's wrong with it
I can not for the life of me find Nickle, shouldn't there be some in the caves under the lillypad forest?
Yes.
You can also pin a recipe there.
That contains nickel.
The seamonkeys will give it to you.
Forgot there is a res scanner as well
moonpool is empty since the dock update
Nothing I just wanted to join in
no prawn?
thats a big seatruck wow
it's attached to the docking module on seatruck
If you take the minerel scanner and search for it, the passages below the ||pilot's last position|| has some
there are bunch in deep lily caves and also in crystal caves
Thanks 😄
does it count as a bug that you can get infinite batteries from the repair tool
Not really. More like an exploit.
Oh didnt notice this was the below zero chat
And what's a seatruck?
the.. vehicle in below zero..
Real
My current favorite sub
I love below zero
Okay y'all will probably hate what I'm about to say but it's a thought.... Do y'all think one day we could have a spin off where we are on the precursor home world with Alan...I know y'all don't like Robin but i would like to hear your opinions 🙂
It would be nice to know how that all turned out.
It really would. I think it would be cool too but who knows. I guess we'll have to wait and see
just seems hard to make that a dlc or game. They really shoulda just made some renders and popped them into the credits as a easter egg
I'm a little bit annoyed that it looks like 2 isn't going to address that at all
Unless secretly Al-An and robin are off on an adventure somewhere on We Have 4546B at Home
They'll be fine.. addressed at a later date..
I'll take it 🙂
where do i find spiral plant clipping
||Vent gardens||
You can either find them in ||Ventgardens|| or ||the cave system near architect artifact LF0||
is subnautica no longer concidered a indie game?
I can't believe it took UWE a decade to release an update for BZ back when

I feel so sad, Subnautica is ready to be played but if Xenoxork releases it now they'll have to pay $250 million to the management team for ceasing good results, which explains the resignation of the game's historical directors and creators. It's just not ethical and I feel held hostage. Yet I love this game
#off-topic and also no
This is not the right channel for this. Also you're somewhat misinformed. See the official statement here #off-topic message note that they promise to honour their commitment to the dev team
Below Zero of all places 
wait people don’t like robin
Robin sucks
Well the one we got in the end does
Gng is there even atp a solve been found to the top magnetite behind Phi base itself?!
How is that related to below zero?
I'm pretty sure there's an ore vein in phi robotics that's impossible to get too
guys
i have a question
||first SOS distress call where it says 200 meters deep, i found a somewhat precursor spine looking thingy do i follow it?||
||it will try to quarantine you and can teleport you out of your vehicles||
yes, into a cave tunnel
what? nothing does that in below zero?
yes, its a vital story location
||so it is the distress call?||
yes, thats what the distress call is
its vital to the story
Scanned a sea monkey and immediately afterwards they stole my scanner
Little jerk
Yeah, learn to identify the sound they make and be ready to hide your tool...
(And at some point they stop...)
Yeah I know but it’s a pain cause I only just got the first oxygen tank and now my scanner is down a hole somewhere
on my newest save they just never took my stuff, gave gifts from the first day. i did speedrun ||al-al|| though
Yes, it's because of him
yeah i figured
I just got gang murdered by crashfish
I wonder if we’ll see this game on mobile too
I love her
people are different. Most complaints I hear is she talks too much
How do i connect this on sea truck?
use the top handle to move it. The handle side goes to the back of the truck
nvm already got it
for what do i use this?
Marguerit (strange lady in prawn suit) makes you shut it down to prove your not Alterra.
how do i shut it down?
You have to go to her last known location and to the right just a bit. You’ll eventually get a voice line and you should find her house. She has something for you to scan. You also need to find three Parallel Processing Units so you can scan them and build a machine.
Ooooh wait. To find out what I’m talking about you need to go back down the mountain.
There’s a random animation after you walk out of a cave. I think it’s near the bottom.
If you can’t get it either more walking or I guess searching up how to get it to play.
like, the animation that the girl on the prawn suit jumps towards you?
and then theres some bases right?
It’s been awhile since I played but I think.
You should have the “Pilots Last Known Location” showing up.
Basically you go past the purple vents and there’s this big green biome and there should be a big ship. In there. Hard to explain but there in two boxes on the wall and then there’s another place.
I wish. That place you just get to scan a lot of stuff and get backstory.
oh man im really lost
yeah i think ill just explore till i find something useful
im scared
Yeah that’s a Chelicerate Leviathan.
Book it out of there so your module doesn’t break.
yeah i already scanned it
i already met the void chelicerate but i couldnt scan it
Two of em ganged up on me and broke my second sea truck. Luckily I had a third and fourth 😭😭
What I was trying to do with multiple sea trucks didn’t work.
Shadow Leviathan is actually really cool. Made that thing my pet. Have a whole base down there.
Impractical though because they don’t have enough stuff to build with. That’s what I’m hoping they change in Subnautica 2.
i really want to see a shadow leviathan it looks so cool
Yeah it is. On your a— though, you’ll probably want the defense upgrade for the Sea Truck if you’re going down there.
wats the best fuel for bioreactor?
I use ribbon plants. You could use kelp things. I forgot what they’re called. All you really need is a garden.
You can just cut them about twice for every plant and you’ll get a seed that you can place.
those kelps fruits you mean?
like, the leafs or the red thing?
I think both work?
I don’t even remember. Just look for the green lights and follow them.
Purple Vents.
ty
Yeah of course. Yw.
bruh i cant find the last fragment of paralel processing unit
Just died while carrying the squid shark eggs up to my seatruck. I found everything I dropped except for the eggs
do I have to restart?
Or is it possible when I died the resulting loot explosion launched it somewhere else and I should farm out a scan room and look? That will take a while
Scan room.
So sorry I didn’t reply sooner. It’s in a different wreckage.
oh np
so i already have paralel processing unit, what should i do now?
Uhhhhh Test Module.
uhhhh where do i get this?
There’s a fragment on Marguerit’s table I believe. Should’ve told you earlier.
how much fragments it needs?
I think just one.
Parallel Processing Unit is one of the things you need to make to make the actual Test Module.
but i dont remember wheres marguerits base
I think the Pilots Last Known location should still show up?
oh it is on the water?
which one wreckage? the with 2 paralel fragments or the one with 1?
The test module should be in her base.
ok, satelite down
now...?
she send me a message but i dont remember if it was 1 km west or east
East.
So when your leaving go right away from your life pod. It’s like 300 meters away from the Void so be careful!!
k
It’s on a massive iceberg and it’s kindaaa hard to find. Wishing you luck.
When you die, you drop the items collected since last being in seatruck, drop pod or base on the spot you died. The eggs should be somewhere there
You can check pda voice log tab for the message
It’s 100% East.
wait ill start from lifepod right?
No Delta Station Dock.
She says “I’m about a kilometer east of your location” atp you’re at the water.
oh
So it's from the satellite tower, not delta dock...But delta dock is a ready beacon, so using it you have to also go south a bit, and the distance to beacon is close to 1300m
She literally says ABOUT a kilometer.
And yeah it is actually satellite tower because she calls you or whatever right after you do it.
3 trillion dabloons
This isnt really the right chat for that but hopefully not, subnautica and below zero were very affordable in early access
is it too late to rework the ending
Well well well…
Everyone called me CRAZY
Everyone pointed and laughed (no one pointed and laughed)
Everyone doubted
Now look at you
Wrong
Game delayed
GTA 6 has a good chance at coming out before it!
Never too late.
i bought subnautica and below zero for 100try now they are 2100try
well i need to get a rebreather first
There are a few oxy plants in that area, I think - they will help also
Any thoughts
You gotta do what makes you happy
What
I'm just asking if it's worth it
If you switched off the story, there are many things in game you won't see - but the choice is yours
I personally feel there's not much of a point to either game the story but you do you
g morning guys
bro do you sleep?
does Riley ever get mentioned in bz
where was that?
I headcannon that Riley made it back to civilization, and was arrested for his debts
I headcanon he died of cancer bcus of radiation from the aurora
Idk he did have a radiation suit
He's probably fine.. if he can survive the karaah for literal months he can beat cancer
don’t think that would save you from Chernobyl levels of radiation
No head Cannon required
That's pretty much what's exactly implied if not outright stated by the ending
RAHH
There were a bunch of PDA with news. I think if you have the game on Steam and try the EA8 version you could find the information in the language files (json format).
It's like.. a good few years in the future. They probably had a cure to cancer or something..
ah I see
i have a problem
my seatruck is stuck on an iceberg
and like
it doesnts moves
and im at 1300 meters from lifecapsule
am i cooked?
Just unstuck button
oh
it dont works
yeah i think ill go back with my seaglide
Maybe building on it? It works with the Cyclops in the first game I don't remember if it does with the second. Otherwise reloading without saving or if you have the game on PC I can teleport it if you give me global-objects.bin.
oh ok it worked
so after i talk to marguerit on that house in an iceberg what am i suposed to do?
You can come back later ||in her base|| for the most useful base pieces the game has to offer.
But you're done with her. If you still don't know what happened to Sam you should go where you know she was last.
And of course the main quest is still to ||build a vessel for Al-An||.
k
You can go back to her main base and explore the lil bit that was blocked off before, if you went there before disabling the satellite
Where do i get the cold suit blueprint?
I've seen a lot of people say that below zero is a bad game, why? Im having a good time
The only thing I don't like is the coffee compared to subnautica 1
||phi robotics||
shower?
Using stasis rifle < risking life and limb to scan sharks
Does anyone know why I cant see my objectives? I feel like i saw them before, it has been almost a year since I have played so I am not sure if its because i did everything, or they were never there.
I’ve noticed in both games the objective beacons randomly decide to turn themselves on and off sometimes
Where is the best place to find diamonds?
Yea I think I did just notice mine was off.
Deep twisty bridges
Yes.
I’m curious how other people color code their beacon menus
I usually use 🟢 for bases and beacons, 🟡 for active quests, and 🔴 for completed
Rarely use 🟠 or 🔵 cause they’re hard to see
Kinda wish we had a magenta color option
Do you mean the beacon signals? You can turn them on or off from pda beacon manager tab
yeah I turned them on just now lol. they were all off for some reason, maybe i did it last play session without knowing.
One of the beds you can scan/build has his lifepod pictured on the blanket
Nah, just ignore it)
and the spy pengling?
Also just a toy)))
oh
Bro Im joking youll need it to complete the story
which one the thumper or the pengling
Pengling
There are kind of little holes on the big eisbergs with some valuable stuff and things to complete the Sam storyline
Just read the PDA logs about Sam and you ll know where to go
And the thumper is like a subway surfer gameplay at the bottom of the screen to distract the ice worm
Like in The Dune
But tbh you could just drive by the ice worm and have some more extreme fun)
It's actually the opposite: in Dune the sandworms come to thumpers, but in below zero ice worms stay away from the thumper
Yeah but you know what I mean, it’s not like the effect it gives that I meant but the way it works u know?)
Like giving vibrations to the surface
Yeah, just clarifying that the same function of the device makes different effect on the creature.
Where is phi robotics center, its an endgame place?
Use the map of Alterra facilites (on Delta station) to find it
Basically it's west from Delta island
I don't remember them all by the codes, but that might be on dry land (actually nearish phi robotics)
Not really.
It’s basically two clicks right of south west 100 meters away from Z13. You’ll see a bunch of glowing fish with big eyes.
starting from delta?
Starting base. I can check Delta if you want.
these glowing fish with big eyes are harmless?
They won’t attack you but they’re like jellyfish. They can accidentally sting you.
From Phi Robotics dock it’s 223 meters away from Z13.
k ty
Yeah Yw. Also Z13 is on the island.
Once you get on the island exactly between Sw and W there’s a path you have to go up. It’ll take you to a bridge you need to fix to get there.
The bridge doesn't lead to phi robotics
It leads to Z13.
But to progress in the story the bridge has to be crossed
Yeah exactly.
Phi Robotics is straight south.
Until the crossroads which then you can take either one but right is faster.
phi robotics is underwater?
No it’s above.
Yeahhh!
They don’t attack you (on purpose) but sometimes it feels like they’re coming after you.
do i need to cross the bridge?
No. Phi Robotics you go back down and go south.
ooo i think i found it
Yayyy!
ye
Ye!
Also for the cold suit you need snowstalker fur. The Spy Pengling is used to get the fur.
Good thing to know before you only make it to play around with it.
Is there some best place to find snow stalkers or any snow area?
around the lake, south. Or just drive around on your bouncy bike
south of the lake, there's a cave with babies and loose fur
wheres the best place to find magnetite? it is the only thing i need to craft the snowfox
wheres the lake (sorry if im being dumb)
Scan the map you can find inside Phi. And in the phi cave, behind the building, theres magnetite in the rock wall
more mag in: spy pengling caves. Inside some icebergs
and deep lilypads
just killed a shadow leviathan for the first time
You can kill leviathans?! TT
even sea emperor?
oh man my snowfox
i was placing it but it entered the ground
first time using it😭
Oof that sucks 💔
Poor leviathan
Just found an alien artifact by accident lol
Wasn’t even looking for it
Was fleeing from Chelly and ran into a cave that just happened to have an artifact in it
I hadn’t even unlocked the coordinates for this one
And me taking more than 1 hour triying to find one that i have the coordinates😔
Wanna set up a base where I can watch the Ventgarden but Chelly keeps chasing me back into this specific cave
oh nvm i accidentaly found one rn
wheres the best place to find rubies?

Koppa is decent
Dunno about other places cause I haven’t got that far yet
Oh yay Chelly just ate me
ventgarden is that big jellyfish rigth?
oh sorry if i make too questions i am rlly new in the game
Yeah in the tree spires
You can’t miss it
Chelly is right next to it
I put a beacon outside Koppa so it’s a little easier to find
It’s next to Koppa but further out past the cliff
AAAAAAAA
Its near lilypads?
Yeah
how can i avoid this pookie?
You really can’t avoid that cutie. Just gotta shock it if you have that upgrade.
(Perimeter defense)
Oh sorry
this one?
Honestly these games are better without guides.
True, I’m happy to help.
scary seas
scary ||eye looking stuff that do not look friendly enough to get close to||
Trying to build my new base but this stupid lily paddler keeps sending me on a trip over and over
Seriously it’s happened like 6 times in a row
GO AWAY
Their friendlies.
Ok what the actual heck???
I just saw a pile of titanium fall from the sky
For no apparent reason
I didn’t think that was how the game respawns ore…
Unless it’s stuff I dropped that got reloaded or something?
Really weird
The game doesn’t really load stuff in quickly so most of the time it’s stuff you dropped earlier.
Huh
I do remember dropping 4 titanium in Phi Robotics earlier but it’s weird that the game just randomly decided to drop it on my head just now
They stop loading places you’ve left quickly so most of the time when you return the items are just now being loaded in the place they were before. That’s why most of the time that happens.
why do bz shaders take like an hour to download 😭
They just wanna be frustrating 😂
Imagine pausing the ores falling and you come back later so they have to focus on that again but before they needed to focus on creatures or something.
Rip
I’m playing on my switch so no shaders for me rn
Might play with shaders in the future sometime when I can get a wireless keyboard
I just can’t play Subnautica not on the tv with the big speakers
It’s not scary enough on my laptop
I’ve never finished BZ in all the years I’ve played but there’s definitely things in both games that scare the pants off me
Like getting swallowed by Ms. Chelly
Also those ice worm things
Terrifying
It’s funny that all the things in the first game that genuinely terrify me are so much weaker than the really big monsters
Yeah true. Idk I think they’re all cuties except for Chelly.
Chelly just looks like a shrimp to me.
She should just run away.
wait wait wait was i just asked to get crystalline sulfure for a repair tool
Maybee!
Chelly looks like an angry lobster to me
It’s those rock punchers that look like shrimp to me
As intended
Yeah true. I can see what you mean.
Yass I got the wiring kit I need
Now my base will finally have power
And I can start farming plants indoors for power
Nice!!
Curse of building below the light level
Do you have a bioreactor?
Just finishing building it now
That’s good.
Might take awhile to get a solid stock of plants but before then I can always sacrifice featherfish to the electricity gods
Yep. Gotta do it sometimes.
Haha that’s actually so real 😭
YEEHAW I HAVE AIR
YEAHHHHH!
Although maybe not for long…
Forgot to check my habitat integrity and now I have holes in my base but no repair tool
I’m so stupid lol
Aw man. It’s alright you can make it better!! 👍
At least I’m close to the sulfur biome
Yep. Thats a good thing.
ladies and gentlemen and everyone beyond the binary

I am so shaking
Working on a Sub 2 Hour rn
@idle remnant
🤯
beow zore
We all know and love beow zore.
Aw man my joycons are running out of battery
Sad times.
So true
I'm finally going to read all of the stuff I've scanned and collected today 
I never do that 😭
Ooh I accidentally found a base with growbed fragments
And a new kind of fruit
Yay more food options
Nice. I like the fruit salad stuff.
Probably should move my wet food farm later cause Chelly keeps trying to harvest people from the garden but I’m gonna wait until I get one crop
Ah yeah. Chelly isn’t very nice when it comes to that.
I honestly need to go back and make my Void base.
My only problem is that I don’t have anything to stare at. Maybe that’s the point.
I can’t stand a base without a view lol
That’s why I’m building Ventgarden Vista
I built one in the crystal caves but there’s so little to build with so I have no actual function for it. It doesn’t work as an actual base because it’s so empty.
Oof
Tree spires is my favorite location cause it’s got a hell of a view and it’s not too far from resources and cave entrances
Ah. Understandable. Crystal Caves is so pretty though so I had too.
Lotta real pretty cave biomes that have like two resources tops
At least in the first game they were somewhat livable
Yeah true.
Only cave I’d even consider basing in is monkey cave cause there you got slave labor to find metals
I love getting monkeys to work for me instead of me having to do it.
Pause X2.
That sounds outlandish.
Sea monkeys.
That still sounds bad.
I didn’t say that okay.
Wasn’t me.
I love games with slave labor like Below Zero and Graveyard Keeper
You just enjoy enslaving things?
Makes the grind a little more bearable
That’s wildddd! I personally love hard grinds.
Pause X2.
Like uhhh SKATING.
Yeah that’s it.
Like Ark?
Ark frustrates me cause by the time I’ve got enough stone to build a stone house I’ve unlocked the metal tier
I wish the leveling was slower
True. I just build at my own pace. I don’t even know what type of house I have rn. I think stone because iron is fugly.
Baby Ventgarden are so cute
Yeah they are. 10/10 would enslave.
Yeah that’s what I’m saying. I didn’t see ANY OF THEM over there until I went to there specified area.
Every time I pass by it there’s like 3-6 of them just chilling next to it
Wannabe archeologists
I love this area cause there’s so much salvage
I almost never find salvage. Super rare.
Just found 4 near the ship
Inside the ship has good stuff too
Yeah. I think I’ve got everything from there.
I’m holding off on going inside until I get a laser cutter lol
It’s a maze in there
Yeah. I basically have nothing to do and it’s sad.
Garden?
Lol that’s what I do when I’m bored
I just make a bunch of fancy coral beds
The only type of good stuff I see is ribbon plants.
Ah yeah it takes work to find useful plants
I like to plant useless plants too though just for fun
I might try that.
I love building with T sections specifically for portholes
Portholes are cute
I wish there were more ways to get a round window besides putting it at the end of a tube
Subnautica 2 fixing this?!?!?!
It’s scary going to that wreck
Something big out of nowhere
I thought there would’ve been skeletons inside or jump scares of frozen bodies across the place considering how cold below zero is
After you notice what it is your good.
Well they’re not the type of people to do jump scares or dead bodies.
Would’ve increased immersion
They won’t even show blood so yk.
Exactly.
look creepy tho
Yeah they do.
My snow fox is stuck in the ground like 4m down in the pingling cave
Idk I think getting yoinked and bit by a squidshark is kind of a jump scare
Well I mean hey, better than rebuilding.
Actually they do but just not people blood
All the critters in the game have yellow blood to avoid a higher ESRB rating
Well they could have an in universe reason for the yellow blood. I’m talking about human blood.
There still kinda is human blood though
You get a red flash on the edges of the screen when you get chomped by something
It’s just not super significant
Like a cut or blood in the water.
Most people don’t even notice that either way so it’s not a big blood type thing. It’s more of an effect type thing.
Probably the main reason you don’t see much blood in the game is that it doesn’t linger long underwater
I like to think that the dirt inside Marguerit’s base is mostly blood but it’s turned brown cause it coagulated
Has anyone else reported fragments missing from the game? I searched around for at least an hour on multiple occasions to find the docking module fragments, but only found one. I built a scanner room in the deep purple vents, gave it lots of time over a couple of play sessions and no other fragments have been found. I also watched videos on their possible spawn locations and they aren't where the videos show them to be
I mean actually missing. Is there another place they can appear aside from the deep purple vents?
I've understood that in the first game bleeders and biters become more aggressive when there is blood in water (including player getting damaged)
i just need the architect tissues to build his body
where do i build the architect components?
|| at a fabricator facility, which is inside ||
|| the fabricator caverns or the red crystal biome ||
what is the depht?
The general biome I think varies quite a bit but of the actual thing you want it’s at || 950m ||
there's a wiki with all of that info

I don't think that's a mechanic.
Then I've understood wrong😅
If you play the game on PC you can compress and share your CellsCache and I could check.
But the docking module is hand placed.
It isn't part of the RNG.
So, if you're missing some, it should be a cloud issue.
a cloud save issue? Ugh, that is not something I would have ever considered! I did start the game on my steam deck and moved to my PC
Yes, Steam could have synchronized the part of the map they're in with a previous save where you scanned (therefore removed) them.
With your CellsCache folder I would know.
I'm guessing there's a wiki on how to share that?
Also, could I try scanning the fragments using my steam deck or will it be overwritten at this point?
Right click in the game on the Steam library, properties, installed files, browse. SNAppData/SavedGames/slot00xx, you zip the CellsCache folder and you drag and drop it.
Do you have separate save slots? Did you play this game previously with a save you would have removed?
I think I've had two partial saves in the past, but neither were saved to the cloud. I think this was before it was implemented. neither of them were there when I loaded the game this time. It's been 3 years since I last played
I don't remember when they started with the cloud saves for BZ, but SN has it since its 2.0 update in December 2022.
And BZ was updated before that.
Indeed you don't have docking module fragments there.
That's all I find with “dock” in the name.
Fragments should be there:
The files are there, so it isn't something like you never went where they are.
You can regenerate those batches.
Remove baked-batch-cells-15-17-8.bin and baked-batch-cells-15-17-9.bin inside baked-batch-cells-15-grp0.zip. Do it when the game is on the main menu.
Glad to hear I'm not crazy! Thanks for looking :D
Remove the files via the file system, correct?
Just use the prawn
the seatruck with the ||prawn module|| is pretty good
Any idea where to get fragments for the || seatruck fabricator module ||?
Deep twisty bridges. Same with storage
<@&85343211593166848> ^
my savior! thank you so much. This was not something I wanted to go without
Northeast and East.
Just go down past ||margurites base||
Or that.
Went cave diving under the ventgarden
Got lost
Died tragically
God I hate squidsharks
bruh they are harmless😭
like they dont do nothing at all
Really don’t appreciate getting grabbed and bit
||so after al-an enters the portal can i enter it or i need to do something more?||
save for the last time. If you saved before transfer, that's even better for loading later
Hot take: bz was indeed not a super amazing game, as many people have said, but it was necessary for the lore. Mainly to show that architects are still alive, and providing some clarification for what happens after the events of SN1.
yay i finished it
but i will play in the same save
i cant let my pinacarrid alone
can i rlly ride a pinacarrid?
ive seen some people talking about it
YOu could somewhere in early access. not now, I think
Nice!!
i prefer it to the first game. to each their own
tbh i prefer below zero like, i feel that the forms of life are more interestings
how many hours does sbz take to complete if you explore every corner of the game
big shrimp is the chillest pet you can find
About 100 hours
At least that's how long it took me, without any guides or anything
i had watched jacksepticeye play it before i bought the game but it was when the game spawned you in the lab instead of crash land
the rest of the game was all me


He completely abandons the other Architects in brain storage though.
||The lore is too direct and not as interesting compared to subnautica imo||
<@&85343211593166848> scam
I just finished bz for the second time and I really want to keep playing the game but I really dont have anything else to do. any recommendations?
Build bases. Go for 100% scans. Make a whole aquarium for every fish possible. Mega bases.. etc
Pretty good ideas damn. thank you
Of course. You should make a land base too. Pretty fun
Yep my current base is on land its very cool I want to now build one in deep water and maybe add a few extra bases on tall mountains and maybe connect them idk ill figure it out
Try custom game mode and change the options
Cure the ||frozen creature||. Hatch eggs. Find and hatch Trivalve. Build the best base evar. Find all the music tracks.
Explore Custom game mode, below Creative in the list (Or convert your game, Options). Play around with commands (see wiki).
On steam, you can still play the old story. Enter beta code belowzeroearlyaccess then run version EA 8.1
why are brute sharks so scary sounding
Thank you. I’ll definitely look up to it
The sound the Squidshark makes is so unusually scary amongst the hostile creatures. It's a bit like the BZ equivalent of the crabsquid.
which below zero mods fix what the fans were disappointed at
like the sea truck and the nerfed prawn suit
i wanna replay below zero with mods that don't really effect the story
Who else has had their SNOWFOX get sucked underground while placing it on a slight incline?
or was it just me who has encountered this problem
Just tried to launch bz on my laptop for the first time and the thing almost melted 😍
Time for a teardown
hello i'm looking to mod subnautica is there a dedicated modding site or do i use nexus
how is a ||cryptosuchus|| more aggressive than a ||chelicerate||
is there any way to access the febuary 2019 early acess build of BZ?
time travel 
z1 did it
i mean on pc since there are betas
in his latest vid
S:BZ
is the code i think
i don't have the steam version so i've never tried it before but i got your the info from reddit
or try belowzeroearlyaccess
yup

i wonder if i can make a tale of two wastlelands type mod for BZ/SN1
from what i under stand you can mod content like this
SN1 --> BZ
BZ --> SN1
which is odd but i can roll with it
i have no idea about anything mod related
idk either i just wanna be like brad is brad and just mess with code
im just waiting for a pc upgrade to also buy both games on steam since epic doesn't have the roll back feature
you have fun modding
ye you need subnautica legacy to play nitrox
boy i hope sn2 will have the nitrox mod too (jk)
ikr they really be sleeping on multiplayer
also to keep this sbz related where would you NOT build your base
uhhhh
hmmm well i usually build on the edge of twisty bridges near delta island since it has a decent amount of space and ive got my pet brute shark brutus who chills there id probably avoid the shallows
the shallows seem alot less building friendly than SN1
ye the peepers are frightening now that they're arctic
although hot take i LOVE making land bases
i remember playing sbz for the first time and it was on the verge of it's release
like early 2021
i had to reset my whole file when it did release
i missed out on BZ's early access but i was there for sn1 from 2016 to release
lucky
theres a way to force load it on steam iirc
i saw really old subnautica vids of earliest early access and it looked so blocky
idk where that went
they even had boats
2013 ea
i wish i was there for subnautica's earliest access
it wasnt too much to gawk at
i played it near the beginning
it was quite the experience
very creepy
it's nice playing a game where you only speculate what would happen in the next update
trying to spawn in game creatures with commands that don't exist yet in early access makes you feel like a time traveler
try backing up your current files and install ea again
is your wifi fast
Hot take: I absolutely loved the Seatruck 🤷🏻
It's not perfect by any means, but it's still really cool imo
Is below zero really worth it or should I just wait for subnautica 2
this dumb eel fish annoyed me, the best part I was fighting two of them at once XD
if you enjoyed first game, you should enjoy this game too, just don't expect too much, game isn't perfect
Ok that makes sense
map is small, and it has a lot of caves which makes it too claustrophobic in my opinion, and leviathans encounters are meh
but its still fun
np
also be preparated for more land exploration btw
what's the time difference between subnautica and subnautica below zero in terms of their story
Ok
tbh i liked the land exploration of below zero
I mean, it isn't the worst part of the game, its quite interesting, but at least for me it isn't as fun as aquatic exploration
well here is another one
this one was tough, but he didn't stood a change
I think I killed them all, im pretty sure on map are like 4 of them?
20 years iirc
So sad
That's crazy
2 years
was subnautica below zero's alterra science team there before the aurora crash
After.
They wouldn't have survived the Kharaa outbreak if they were there before Ryley.
ryley my hero
definitely deserves 10 trillion credits
the below zero early access animations where the cave collapses were so smooth
and the avelanche
first subnautica game spoilers but related to bz ||has the peepers from the first subnautica ending spread out to the north pole to spread the cure||
||you know that al an was the one responsible for the kharaa spread in the first map of subnautica, why was al an's sanctuary in below zero tho, looking at the planet from the escape ship the frozen lands were kilometers aways from the first map||
It was in self defense if they attacked the person
Legally okay, morally probably aswell
He probably evacuated the area so he would have less of a chance to be infected by Kharaa
(Self defence and excessive use of force are different things.)
Yeah true, I just tried to explore and they kept attacking me lol
Once while fighting one shadow leviathan, another one joined
So I was fighting against two XD
Killing leviathans is really never justified imo
I’m glad to hear you won’t be able to kill, not only leviathans, but any predators in Subnautica 2🎉
Removing leviathans, as if they’re an obstacle, is one of the many reasons why they’re no longer going to be killable in the next game.
You’re not meant to be the “apex predator” in Subnautica games.
Rather, you’re supposed to use other means, such as your wits and stuff, to plan around the paths of predators and whatnot, not remove them from the environment to make life more convenient for yourself
Besides, without any challenge, the game would get boring all the faster
Yeah gotcha man, I also hope they won't be able to be killed in sub 2
Especially when you consider how easy to kill they actually are
When you damage leviathans, they don't try to attack you anymore, just escape which makes them very easy to deal with
