[pale temple]

i mean the rest of her base is unlocked after disabling tower

greenhouse has the best food plants to take and craft spicy salad

[tribal coral]

can someone help me?

[mossy sleet]

time to go to the chelicerate purple biome to go build a nuclear powered scanner room

[rich meteor]

Does that mean her base isn't guarded by that snow stalker anymore after you disable it?

[buoyant lagoon]

ive always believed it was the REGNAL FISH,

[tribal coral]

thanks

[buoyant lagoon]

sorry screwed up, i ws thinking subnautica not bz.

[tribal coral]

i was thinking that it was subnautica 1

[tribal coral]

for the fish

[ripe crater]

I wish there were more scenes with Al-An in his own body :(
his design is so cool :(

[buoyant lagoon]

I think many people thought sub2 would be a follow on story about Al-Ans people.

[stoic surge]

As the Devs are still buildng Sub2, it's always possible the architects will have some kinda mention, at least ... who know what they have in store

[pale temple]

yes
he will move and u can go inside more

but first after deactivating tower
head to her greenhouse there u will tell her u did it
then go to her base

[fresh maple]

In the phi excavation site, there is a security’s room that has a Reaper Leviathan poster. My question is, is that a real image of a reaper that Alterra took after the events of Subnautica, or just a painting? If it’s the former, does it confirm that Alterra went back to map of the first game after Ryley returned?

[tacit comet]

Painting

[lilac matrix]

how do i put this 2 and 3 floor on the multitask room?

[wispy terrace]

are you trying to connect the third room to the one thats only two multitask rooms? you'd have to put a third one or make a very strange hallway with the components. if you removed that window on the third and build a third multitask room to the first two you could connect them that way. idk what you're trying to go for here

you'd have to remove a window and use an I compotent and a verticle but i dont even know if the building grid would let you even do that. or put a whole other mutiltask room on top to connect them

[grand haven]

Tbh the base already seems fine to me lol

[wispy terrace]

yeah, it looks like you have things connected well

[faint ivy]

Is mine connected well👀

[steel stream]

Two seatruck docks and still modules parked between them...

[faint ivy]

This is where power and integrity come from in case anybody wonders all 12 stories have a nuclear reactor and are full reinforced

[faint ivy]

Yeah lmao😂

[fresh maple]

Anyone can do that in creative mode

[steel stream]

But he is not in creative...that's freedom

[fresh maple]

It’s almost the same

[tacit comet]

No its not lmao

[steel stream]

Yes, freedom is almost the same as survival...

[fresh maple]

I looked it up and freedom only removes hunger and thirst, which is still not survival. I’m just saying a build loses a bit of its fascination unless it’s done in survival without commands.

[faint ivy]

Uhm no freedom only takes hunger and thirst still had to farm for hours

[steel stream]

Exactly, still need to find blueprints, gather resources, worry about oxygen while doing it...nothing like creative

Hunger and thirst basically become a minor inconvenience when you can farm food/water at your base, which is why I consider freedom almost the same as survival🤷‍♂️

Not sure if you can eat bladderfish for oxygen and heating foods in freedom...if not, it can sometimes be harder than survival🤷‍♂️

[fresh maple]

Can’t be harder than survival due to those, because normally you never need to eat bladderfish for oxygen

[steel stream]

More thinking of the heating foods

[tacit comet]

You can't

[fresh maple]

I only play survival, as it’s the best and intended experience

[tacit comet]

Best is an opinion, all game modes are intended, otherwise they wouldn't be in the game

[steel stream]

But back to the point: building a large base in freedom is just as much an effort as in survival🤷‍♂️

[tacit comet]

This. All freedom does is save you a bit of time

[fresh maple]

So therefore it’s not the same effort?

[tacit comet]

I mean, you don't spend 1 minute cooking fish

But sure, i suppose technically

[fresh maple]

I’m not trying to undermine your build btw, just saying I like survival builds

[tacit comet]

I love survival as well! :)

[fresh maple]

Eating fish is a primitive method of filling hunger bar. Eventually, you eat from plants and drink water from the purifier, so it’s easier than you may think

[faint ivy]

Well hunger and thirst doesn't affect my build it's just tedious to have to hunt fish or grow stuff so it's still a survival build...

[tacit comet]

Exactly, you're proving my point fur me, survival is pretty much identical to freedo.

[ashen wing]

hey, can someone hgelp me with thermal placement please

[fresh maple]

Well you still have to scan the plant beds and water purifier

[tacit comet]

Which I will also do wheen playing freedom

[ashen wing]

i have this here but its reporting 28c, i cant place it anywhere! where am i supposed to put them

[faint ivy]

I also scanned them🫪 I have everything unlocked

[tacit comet]

That takes like less than 30 secs total

It's really not that different

[fresh maple]

Yes, but in survival, it’s not optional

Unless you only want to eat fish

[faint ivy]

Whatever makes you happy😆😊

[fresh maple]

It doesn’t make me happy, it’s just a fact

[faint ivy]

Ok survival is sooooo much harder than freedom.

[tacit comet]

It actually is, you can also just die to get food and water back, its really not a huge deal

Frankly I have a harder time in freedom because I don't need to eat or drink so i assume I'm in creative then get mauled

[ashen wing]

is 45c good for a thermal reactor? if its here should it have more temperature

[placid canopy]

hi - just finsihed subnautica 1 and loved it, is it worth playing below zero before sub 2 just cuz people say its no good

[faint ivy]

U have to build it right inside the lava

[fresh maple]

Death is not an option when I play personally. I may only die once in my entire play through, because I try to play real survival where death isn’t an option

[ashen wing]

how can i do that

[faint ivy]

45 is veery low

[ashen wing]

is there a way to pause the filtration machine?

[fresh maple]

No, but you can turn off the power of the room where it is at, if you have a control room

That will disable it

[tacit comet]

"Real survival" is subjective

[tacit comet]

Partially deconstruct it

[faint ivy]

Well that's a way then... 🫪😂

[ashen wing]

oh nvm i figured it out! it wasnt letting me on other ones for some reason

[fresh maple]

It’s true

[faint ivy]

He'd play on hardcore if he wanted that not survival...

[fresh maple]

Yeah but you know what I meant here. Also, objectively, hardcore is by far the best mode, not survival, so I was wrong before. I personally don’t play hardcore because even though it’s the best, I can’t lose a world where I spent hours.

[tacit comet]

Subjectively

[fresh maple]

Yeah I had forgotten about that earlier

[tacit comet]

Objectively is not the correct word

It's an opinion

[fresh maple]

No, objectively. Because there is no “save” button to save you if things go wrong. It’s by far the best experience that’ll keep you on edge.

[rich sable]

you know from time to time evebgerscome

[tacit comet]

That's your opinion

There are no facts to 100% a certain that hardcore is definitively the best because there is none

It's a player decision, everyone plays differently

Each person's experince is valid

[rich sable]

but whwrre are all yther cats

[tacit comet]

I don't know what youre saying

[fresh maple]

It’s a fact that UCL football is the best football tournament in the world, but there are many people who prefer watching Sunday leagues because maybe their teams play there. Their experience is valid, but UCL is still better. It’s the same here. Hardcore is how it would be if we were in that planet in real life, so it’s the best mode.

[rich sable]

i ma in cat talkl you know mew and mew an mew

[tacit comet]

How it would be in real life is a very different thing from the "best mode" your football analogy does not apply, it's completely unrelated. Football can be judged by skill, and fun is subjective, and what people enjoy is different

The best mode is the one each player enjoys the most

[acoustic oracle]

correction, it's the best mode for experienced players

[tacit comet]

I think we can all agree we play games because they're fun

[acoustic oracle]

not really, brawlhalla players exist

i dont think i ever saw a single positive video or comment abt brawlhalla

[rich sable]

@tacit comet https://discord.com/channels/@me/1130119297209999410/1504161977327550695 it is sometimes har dto fins the mes

[tacit comet]

So the best game mode is the the one in which you have the emost fun. Fur you, that may be hardcore, for other players, it might not! And thats okay. People have have different opinions

[tacit comet]

I don't have access to that

[fresh maple]

Maybe my analogy was bad, but if the whole world was forced to play hardcore for 7 days, they would all agree that hardcore is the best mode

[tacit comet]

That's also untrue, you can no evidence to support this claim

[fresh maple]

It’s due to time/other responsibilities that most people don’t commit to hardcore, and that’s okay

[tacit comet]

You are basing your opinion off of feelings and opinions. Which is fine, but you cannot in good faith say that it's "objective" when you do so

[steel stream]

(I wouldn't play for 7 days, and then continue my non-hardcore saves)

[tacit comet]

It has the same time constraints as survival and creative and everything else

[fast vector]

i like video game

[fresh maple]

Not really, in hardcore there are added layers. You need to think in real life harder what course of action to take, because silly mistakes can lead to death

[steel stream]

I've had enough "you died, start over from the beginning" on the 80's and 90's...

[tacit comet]

You can do this in survival as well

I do tjis

Good players do this

[acoustic oracle]

wrong, if we assume that only 20% of the world are people that play games and are familiar with general game design then automatically that makes 80% not enjoy it bc they keep dying and get frustrated. Then of those 20%, i assume about 65% dont like how little info subnautica gives and when u combine that with getting punished for exploring, they'd def not have a fun time

[tacit comet]

It's not limited to hardcore

The only change hardcore has, is you only get one life (and stuff like no o2 alerts)

It's not a big difference

In fact, I'd argue that hardcore is bad, because subnautica is an old game and the runs usually end because of a bug that couldn't be avoided

[acoustic oracle]

wait hardcore has no o2 alerts??? yea most people would NOT like hardcore <?3

[tacit comet]

But that's a different disscussion for another time

Please read up on the difference between objective truth and personal preference

[fresh maple]

The biggest difference in hardcore is not that two, but the absence of a “save” button. There is only “save and quit” which changes the whole equation

[tacit comet]

That's how I play survival worlds

That's not exclusive to hardcore

[fresh maple]

No, hardcore is the best is an objective truth. I stand by it, even if I can’t prove it now, because I know it’s true. I will prove it later.

[tacit comet]

If you cannot provide proof you cannot claim it

Burden of proof is on the claimant

[fresh maple]

I know and I will prove it later

[fast vector]

youre allowed to stand by your opinion, but it's just that, an opinion

[tacit comet]

Show me a full informative persuasive essay that has definitive evidence NOT based on personal feelings, and I'll believe you

[fresh maple]

People claimed that the earth orbited the sun, for years. Some even got killed for it, as they didn’t have proof. But now we know it’s true.

[tacit comet]

But you won't send me it, because those facts don't exist, gameplay is fluid, everyone is different, and we all enjoy games differently

[tacit comet]

This is horrible argument, it is not at all the same situation

[fast vector]

that is wildly different from how people prefer to play video games dude

[fresh maple]

I will, I’ll prove it later

[tacit comet]

Established science and "I think hardcore is better" are incredible different things

[storm moss]

where is the entrance of this alien artifacts jesus crhist

[acoustic oracle]

which one

[tacit comet]

Read up on subjective and opinions and personal preference in the meantime

You can believe it's the best game mode, its probably the best game mode fur you! Just not fur everyone

[fast vector]

yeah if that's how you love to play the game then all the power to you!

[storm moss]

It's three alien artifacts under the water and I also got an alien distress call

[acoustic oracle]

the name of it? if u look at the icon, it tells u

[tacit comet]

Is I the most realistic? Yes. Is it the most lore accurate? Yes. But those qualities fo not by definition make something "good" "good" us subjective and based on our outlook on a situation, and it differs between people

[storm moss]

AA - 2
AA - 3

[acoustic oracle]

i forgot 💔

[fresh maple]

I know what they are, and just like people proved theories over time, absence of evidence doesn’t mean falsity

[tacit comet]

It doesn't, but it's important to not believe in it until it's definitively proven

[steel stream]

Remember thst below zero also has custom game mode, which can be made exactly as any other game mode, but it has much more options....and yet it cannot be said to be the best game mode since it doesn't give achievements...

[fresh maple]

Hardcore is the best, it’s the truth. If you asked the Subnautica developers, 100% they would agree, which would prove it

[fast vector]

lmao that is a hefty claim

[tacit comet]

Alright, let me ask them :) if they say no, and that gameplay and player choices are subjective and fluid, will you concede your argument?

[acoustic oracle]

1. how does that prove it

2. it's objectively the worst gamemode for beginners

[steel stream]

Then how come Subnautica 2 doesn't have hardcore available from the start?

[fresh maple]

If the developer himself says hardcore isn’t the best, I will concede it

But it has to be one of the tip top developers, not someone creating battery designs for the game

[fast vector]

this is a CRAZY hill to die on

[acoustic oracle]

worst part is that he's wrong too 💔

[near zephyr]

Ever since I played Subnautica Below Zero, I remember the jukebox allowing you to download sounds to your computer and play them on both the base speakers and the SeaTruck speakers. If Subnautica 2 allowed you to have this feature to listen to your own music with your friends, either at the base or in the vehicles, I tell you... it would be the best game of all time... Here's my tip as a fan of the games. I know this message won't reach the developers, but that's okay.

[fresh maple]

It’s in early access, that’s why

[acoustic oracle]

you'd think that the devs would want to add their "best mode" from the very beginning, in order to make their game more enjoyable until the whole game is out

[steel stream]

But if it would be the best game mode by the devs, surely they would add it in EA?

[fast vector]

yeah if that's how everyone is supposed to play then it should be baked in from the start, no?

[tacit comet]

Yeah lmao

[fresh maple]

Not really. It’s quite the opposite. They save the best for the last, as they did with SN1

They want to make sure the game is as polished as can be before they implement all features

[acoustic oracle]

hardcore is only the best gamemode for experienced players, that already beat the game at least once and have knowledge on each creature. For a beginner, hardcore is the worst experience (unless they enjoy these kinds of games). Same reason that no one suggests hardcore to a new player in minecraft, both games give u little to no guidance while having a lot of threats that could kill u and make ur experience not fun

[tacit comet]

Even then, bugs can unfairly ruin a hardcoree run, and I don't want my 2 year save to be gone because I stepped off a foundation 1 foot above the ground and died

(I have a video)

[fast vector]

yeah exactly that would ruin the entire experience for me, some trigger decided that it didn't want to go off, or i got stuck in something, everything is suddenly gone, but not due to me and a mistake i'm making, that SUCKS. haha

[acoustic oracle]

as someone who started playing bz like a week or 2 ago, i already died like 20 times, 10 of which were from oxygen and 5 from getting curious (chelicherate, squidshark mainly)

and i went into the game with a bit of knowledge about most aggresive creatures, so imagine someone with ZERO knowledge and/or doesnt play games regularly (so they dont have basic skills needed to play games)

[tacit comet]

Also, as a completioniist, I like seeing everything, I can't see all the death animations if its hardcore

[acoustic oracle]

u could technically, as long as u explore A LOT during the start of the game (since u wont have the seaglide or even a vehicle)

[tacit comet]

I'm not burning 5 saves fur death animations lol

[acoustic oracle]

tough

[inland stump]

i just went to crystal caverns with mk2 depth on seatruck and got out alive with architect skeleton

[pastel hedge]

guys im at ||pilot last position part|| what do i do there i keep drowning

[spare socket]

Yo guys is this game really that much worse than the first I'm asking because I just bought it. I know nothing can ever beat the first game but is it THAT much worse like they say.

Anyways it's finished downloading so I'll see for myself

[acoustic oracle]

well i personally like it (it's my first subnautica game), i feel like there's not enough aggresive creatures though

[spare socket]

In subnautica 1 there's a lot and there's 25 reapers and I dont know how many ghosts

[spare socket]

I love the first one so much but I hope this is also good

[acoustic oracle]

yea exactly, in bz i reached (i think) the half-way mark of the story, and i only have like 2 creatures that i actively try to avoid

[spare socket]

It's starting in land?

[pastel hedge]

can someone answer my question

[acoustic oracle]

yea, but only like 5% of the game actually takes place on land (at least as far as i know)

[acoustic oracle]

i think u need to craft a test override module to disable the signal tower, which will allow u access into her base. And in order to achieve that, u need a laser cutter if i'm not wrong

[spare socket]

Oh God the pda voice

Why the hell is the water warm

[acoustic oracle]

same question i had when i first started, though it's not totally wrong (i went to the beach 2 days ago and it was lwk warmer inside of the sea due to the wind)

[spare socket]

Gas ryley wrote the book yet

[dusky basalt]

Find a cave in the seabed that has oxygen plants, follow the trail of oxygen plants

[acoustic oracle]

oh yea i forgot to tell him abt that

[spare socket]

I miss my ultra high capacity O2 tank

[dusky basalt]

What happened to it

[fresh maple]

Robin isn’t as skilled as Ryley

[spare socket]

It's in subnautica 1

[dusky basalt]

You can also get one in bz, I think in the monkey nests of the lily pads

[faint ivy]

You get a better oxygen tank...

[faint ivy]

U can access her base without that she will give you the recipe to the test override module once you entered her base. You just don't have access to her bedroom/bath till after disabbling the antenna

[acoustic oracle]

wait how?

[faint ivy]

First time you're on delta island she'll stop u and then go to her base you have to meet her there and convince her you're not with alterra and she will tell you that she has a device on the table which is a broken test override module once you scan it you get the recipe and have to build it and return to delta island to disable the antenna

[acoustic oracle]

how do i enter her base though 💔

[tacit comet]

Moonpool

[faint ivy]

Through the moonpool

[spare socket]

I finally got my scanner

[acoustic oracle]

dont tell me i have to scan it..

[coarse sparrow]

guys. im at the fabricator base but the shadow leviathan wont leave me alone. its just camping me and my sea truck. what do i do?

[steel stream]

You don't have to, but getting moonpool blueprint is very useful...

[acoustic oracle]

so where do i enter from 💔

nvm, i think ik

[steel stream]

As said, you enter her base through the moonpool

[coarse sparrow]

can someone pls help me out real quick?

[tacit comet]

Sure! Whats up?

[coarse sparrow]

guys. im at the fabricator base but the shadow leviathan wont leave me alone. its just camping me and my sea truck. what do i do?

[acoustic oracle]

js leave

[faint ivy]

You can it's one of the easiest ways to get it but that's the access point to ger base

[coarse sparrow]

im so close to finishing the game tho

[acoustic oracle]

wdym

[tacit comet]

Do you have perimeter defense?

[faint ivy]

Zap it when it grabs u and swim away

[coarse sparrow]

yeah ive been spamming it

[faint ivy]

Load it up more effective and it will run away which gives u enough time to swin away

[coarse sparrow]

well it attacks me every 10 seconds. like i let it the defense load but then he attacks me again

[tacit comet]

Then use it as soon as it grabs

Not before

[coarse sparrow]

i do

[faint ivy]

From fabricator base to the exit from red crystal caves u don't need 10 seconds. Take the left exit it'll leave u completely alone

[coarse sparrow]

alr i’ll try that out

[subtle sorrel]

theres laser ice door near the robotics area thats glitched is that intended or wut

[faint ivy]

Pic?

[steel stream]

It's basically and exit shortcut, only can be cut from the other side

[faint ivy]

That's a huge shourtcut but you'll need a ion cube

[subtle sorrel]

i thought i was done with that damn island

[faint ivy]

It's beneath the bridge it just takes u with a teleport into phi robotics center after a short dive

[steel stream]

That ice wall is optional thing...if you got the ||Al-An body part from arctic spires, you're done with the mandatory land part||

[subtle sorrel]

oh

near the giant worm right?

[ashen wing]

im in an area with snow tunnel cave like after ifxing the bridge, should i geet a propuilsion canon for that or no need

[subtle sorrel]

no need

[ashen wing]

i found the tissue is that all there is to do ther

nvm

[mossy sleet]

bruh the purple cheli biome is so boring

[faint ivy]

Propulsion cannon is the most useless item in the game you don't need it for anything

[tacit comet]

So vehemently incorrect, I love the prop cannon

It's amazing fur decoration and peak fur farming respurces especially quartz lithium, diamonds, nickel, sulfur, etc

Magnetite

Also helps eith items stuck in mineral veins

[inland stump]

how do i get snowfox and snow stalker fur i need some

[steel stream]

Snowfox: scan fragments, also scan hoverpad (in phi robotics) since you need that to craft it. Snow stalker fur can be collected on the floor of their caves, or from live one using spy pengling

[inland stump]

i got the hoverpad and 2/3 snowfox i have not seen anymore thx for the help tho

[steel stream]

Glacial basin has snowfox fragments scattered all over

[inland stump]

alr

[faint ivy]

Nickel and sulfur don't need to be farmed with the 4-5 you find on your way to end game regions you have enough for the enitre game, lithium in purple vents and crystal caves quartz next to void and diamonds you'll find more than you'll ever need in deep twisty bridges. Magnetite I scanned once for it and never needed more.

[tacit comet]

Fair, was thinking of sn1

Besides it's fun to collect anywah

[mossy sleet]

bruh this selfish a*s alien first makes me find all artifacts and then once i do, ghosts me

like bruh i found all ur artifacts and the cache, now what? speak up bro what next

[simple sun]

Is there any way to mute sound when game in background? Except full stop?

[fresh maple]

Turn your PC/system’s sound off

[manic osprey]

finished below zero yesterday and i don't understand why it's more disliked compared to subnautica 1

probably had the same if not more fun playing it than subnautica 1 besides ||** ** ** ** a r c t i c ** ** ** ** s p i r e s||

I gotta be honest, the lily pad zone might be my fave zone in the whole series. The vibe, the looks, the lifeforms, but mainly that soundtrack is so incredible

[strong tapir]

Is this game better than the first

[spare cradle]

yep

[red bronze]

[spare socket]

Nah

[mossy sleet]

||bruh i hate tips and help for subnautica but is the maximum depth here for this biome only till the alien body cache site? i can see fragments below through scanner but i cant find a way further down!! || can someone help?

the game just completely goes silent at this stage i hate this. I have ||visited all the alien fragments and body cache site and now the alien wont contact back|| and gone to all the biomes and labs and the game has no story as to what the hell i have to do.

[regal carbon]

I don't understand your question. Wdym by "maximum depth for this biome"? The maximum depth it goes? If so, it's around 600 for this biome

[mossy sleet]

damn, so i wasted a full scanner base on this.. it was showing fragments below me beyond 600m

[spare socket]

Why does my seatruck feel so bad to control (I just got the game and got very used to the seamoth and cyclops so I keep crashing thinking it's more like the seamoth)

[regal carbon]

There are, but in another, deeper biome

[mossy sleet]

i got an ||inactive volcano alert|| on pda but for the life of me cannot find its entrance

near the alient artifact P something

[idle iris]

I like to think, at least in my headcanon (maybe semi-canon), that the ||concept art, for example, Pat Presley's biome, Deep Arctic, the creatures Kitewing Skyray, Icebreaker Leviathan, Cryptosuchus, are actually part of it, because they were cut due to gameplay, time, money, and work involved, and they aren't things that are out of the ordinary, that could really fit into the biome, so to me it makes sense in the world of 4546B, they're there somewhere.||

[inland saddle]

maybe on the other end of the planet, theres another arctic zone with all of em

[idle iris]

||Even though it's a planet slightly smaller than Earth, it's still quite large. Even though no other habitable areas besides the Crater and Sector Zero have been confirmed, and it's only the dead zone, there are likely other places with rich fauna.||

[inland saddle]

Yeah, there’s no way there’s only 2 livable spots on an entire planet

Like look at our OWN planet, there’s life from the deepest of seas, to the barrenest of deserts, and so on

[rigid steppe]

Finna put y'all on the locks for today,just say add🔥 and I will send what I got today💪💯✅

[idle iris]

In sector zero there are several creatures related to the creatures in the crater area, like the Arctic Peeper, unless somehow the Peeper or an ancestor of the Peeper simply ended up at the planet's pole and had descendants, there must be other living places around the rest of the world.

[inland saddle]

Well I’d imagine that maybe some species (like peepers) migrate? And maybe some decided to stay in sector zero and adapted to the environment

[idle iris]

It's possible, sector zero isn't that far from the crater, but even considering the types of creatures that were there in the past, there's still an entire planet left, there are certainly other survival points.

I finished sub 1 and 2 and want to play this but I didnt enjoy the end of sub 1 because of the grind will there be a annoying grind in this game?

[inland saddle]

Actually not much, titanium/copper is genuinely way too easy to get early game, only problem is really silver and you genuinely only have to go a bit deep in the twisty bridges to get silver. HOWEVER, I only started replaying the game recently, and my main issue as of now is scanning fragments. They’re hard to find.

No, there are people who like it and prefer it over cylops/seamoth

[lyric moat]

Major spoilers, just finished the game!
|| Can't help but feel bad for Sam, R.I.P||

[stoic surge]

I am also a fan, and think it's usually under-rated

[broken meadow]

Why does my game not let me collect creepvine to get the knife

[inland stump]

Spoilers don't read if you don't want Spoilers

What Modules for Sea truck is a must to go to the place where we build alen a Body

[warped ginkgo]

i had allready read it 💔

[inland stump]

Dw you will Probably not Remember it when it happens

[indigo flint]

Anyone playing below zero? Does the orange signal after going there and finishing it and it doesn't disappear does it mean I still haven't checked some of the other parts or I'm missing something?

[steel stream]

Are you trying to collect creepvine or creepvine seed clusters?

[inland stump]

For me the signals Stay

[indigo flint]

Oh okay, thank you!

[broken meadow]

Both

[steel stream]

Well, you need knife to cut the creepvine samples. First grab some seed clusters for silicone rubber and craft the knife.

[broken meadow]

It won't let me though

[steel stream]

The game doesn't let you pick up seed clusters? Have you tried reloading?

[broken meadow]

Ok I will thx... Maybe

[steel stream]

Have you changed keybinds? Never heard that affecting picking up stuff, only interacting with things, but this sounds odd and thinking of possible reasons🤷‍♂️

[broken meadow]

It may be because I'm on switch

[inland stump]

What moduels should i have on seatruck for Crystal caves

[steel stream]

What you want🤷‍♂️ for upgrade modules depth is obvious, perimeter defence very useful, speed buffs nice. For seatruck modules, none is essential, so choose what you want to have

[inland stump]

Alr i got perimeter Defence and depth mk3 alr

[acoustic oracle]

all i see is some solar panels, all of our bases need a good source of power

[inland stump]

[spare socket]

What the hell is this thing i don't like it

[weak rune]

[kind junco]

did u know you can fill 7 lockers full of dead penguins

[ruby veldt]

Ts is why they won’t add killing in SN2

[kind junco]

also because id go out if my way to kill the collector

[final mason]

hi

[fast vector]

<@&85343211593166848>

[dense nymph]

Anyone have any tips on base locations? Just started the game and have no idea what direction/biome is safe and worth to live in. Otherwise I normally stay at the lifepod :/

[tepid summit]

is there anything special here in this pilot area

[final mason]

does the seatruck have sonar

[potent rain]

They should add killing for normal people lmao. People like that will always find a way. Plus I bet a killing mod will be added if they don't put it in....I just want to clear around my base.

[unreal nacelle]

Yeah, it’s needed to progress

[tepid summit]

shouldi upgrade my truck?

[unreal nacelle]

I think it’s possible to make it with the seagluide but it’s a lot easier when you have 300 max depth

[tepid summit]

is that depth upgrade 1?

[unreal nacelle]

Yep!

[tepid summit]

how to get the ingredidents for it, i also need help getting the power cell charger, and habitat builder

[unreal nacelle]

What does it ask for again? To make the depth module

[tepid summit]

plasteel ingont and enamaled glass x2

[unreal nacelle]

Which parts do you not have?

[tepid summit]

enamed glass

[unreal nacelle]

You need diamonds for that right?

[tepid summit]

idk i need ur help

i think it does, but idk where to get diamonds

[unreal nacelle]

Alright! I believe what’s needed for enameled glasses is diamonds, lead, and glass, you can find diamonds in a few areas, I’ve found the most success if you go down into the ravine where you find the table coral, once you make it there you just go straight down, maybe 200 meters, it should get darker and there should be lots of oxygen plants, if look around the walls you’ll find a lot of diamonds (there is a big fish here lol, so be careful)

[tepid summit]

table coral? like the area with twisty bridges?

[unreal nacelle]

I think so, you know, you can find lots of ||seatruck|| modules and fragments there

[tepid summit]

kk

thanks, also where can i find habitat builder?

[unreal nacelle]

What does it need?

[tepid summit]

habitat builder fragmants

[unreal nacelle]

Also can be found at the twisty bridges and delta station dock!

[tepid summit]

so i can find builder fragmants there???

[unreal nacelle]

Yep!

[tepid summit]

thanks!!!!!!

[unreal nacelle]

Ofc :D!

[steel stream]

Many Alterra bases has a fragment. First places to get it are Delta Station or the i compartment in twisty bridges canyon (same place where you get high capacity tank blueprint)

[pale salmon]

yes, theres a killing mod, i mean. it was pretty obvious there was, yk the saying, modders always does a better job in some stuff.

[inland stump]

i just finished below zero

[mossy sleet]

the alien said theres something in the ground worms area in the ice island repeatedly when i was there and i cant find anything. i even placed a 500m scanner room

how do i find without referring to wiki. that area is a pain in the a*s maze idk why the devs have to make it that hard

[plain siren]

I need help getting back to the Phi robotics center. I’ve lost my PRAWN suit there and can’t get back. I’m starting at where you go into the water from the crash site

[steel stream]

Did you get the phi landing site beacon?

[plain siren]

I picked up

[steel stream]

Iirc if you go directly west from delta dock, you reach the dock near the bridge

[plain siren]

Ok I’ll try that

[steel stream]

Did you scan the map of Alterra facilites that is on the wall at delta station?

[plain siren]

Wait what. That was there?

[steel stream]

Yes, this one (check the message I replied to)

[plain siren]

Oh. I didn’t even notice it. After I get my suit back I’m gonna go scan that. Thanks for the help

[steel stream]

There's also another map to scan at phi robotics

[plain siren]

Holy crap im blind

[shut beacon]

Is there anyway to deconstruct a nuclear reactor once uve put rods in it?

[steel stream]

Never tested can you deconstruct it with rods inside...if not, have to use power until the rods are empty...

[shut beacon]

whats the fastest way to drain power possible

see i want a glass ceiling in my multipurp room but put a reactor down and slapped 4 rods in it not thinking…..

[steel stream]

Charging ion batteries or cells...check here

[shut beacon]

i think im cooked

[steel stream]

Build lot of floodlights and scanner rooms scanning...constant power drain without player input🤷‍♂️

[gray warren]

you cant just deconstruct it? even though its running?

[plain siren]

Guys. How do you pick things up with the spy pinging. I’m really struggling. I play on ps5 btw

[inland saddle]

oh hi there mr worm

so uhm

i escaped the ice worm, than a snow stalker started chasing me. i kept running, and then the ice worm ATE IT. HE ATE THE SNOW STALKER.

[restive ember]

Antone knows where are the seatruck fragments im new :/

[inland saddle]

They’re scattered around the twisty bridges

[tacit comet]

I love this animation

It was a huge reason why I decided to build a base in Arctic spires

[inland saddle]

I can still hear the crunching…

[tacit comet]

I love the crunching lol, it always is so creepy and uncomfortable lol

[inland saddle]

yeah, i found marges greenhouse and then quit for a bit, im now replaying sn1

[tacit comet]

Very cool sir, just ignore the item used to counter you

[inland saddle]

albert einstein

[tacit comet]

Huh?

I've worm attack reduction module, working as intended lmao

Twice the ice worm, with none of the damage

Its a feature, trust

Also rip ice worm audio ig

[plush ridge]

is this good for starter? (im like 5 hours in)

whats the most nutrient dense fish?

[steel stream]

Might be arctic peeper, but not sure

[regal carbon]

Arctic peeper and triops

[plush ridge]

how many ||artifacts|| are there?

[tacit comet]

A lot

[plush ridge]

what is that.

[split folio]

fren.

you can ride him too

[tacit comet]

Glow whale

[tacit comet]

And look into his eye

[split folio]

[plush ridge]

where do i refuel the bridge

[tacit comet]

At the bridge?

[plush ridge]

im at the bridge but where

[tacit comet]

At the left side where you scanned the fluid

[plush ridge]

i gotta go back to the base 😭

also why is my character still shivering when im not cold

[tacit comet]

No, if youre at the bridge, and have the. FFlud, yure good

[tacit comet]

How cold are you?

[plush ridge]

it says 100 at the temp stuff

[tacit comet]

Ah okay

Just animations continuing if

Itll stop

[plush ridge]

i gotta go build it

[tacit comet]

Oh okay

Then yup! Either build it at home or the seatruck fab module

[plush ridge]

oh i just saw it was like 1 degree at the thermometer

[tacit comet]

Oh lol

That's why

[fluid charm]

Leviathan

[hollow thunder]

Big fish named Kun
Kiss him

[inland saddle]

Pengling Hunter.

[pallid canopy]

i hate u rn

[inland saddle]

my prawn suit is named crab hunter on sn1, i hunt crabsquids. i am a hunter

[pallid canopy]

stay away from penglings.

[kind junco]

just do this buddy

[desert isle]

where can you find lithium?

[pallid canopy]

they r alive, aren't they?

[kind junco]

very much dead

[pallid canopy]

noooo

[kind junco]

the lockers in the background are also mini mass graves

[pallid canopy]

U MONSTER

[kind junco]

what am i not allowed a mass grave base?

[pallid canopy]

IM CRYING

[desert isle]

anyone know?

[tacit comet]

Deep twisty

[desert isle]

whats that

[tacit comet]

Also purple vents

[tacit comet]

Is below the twisty bridges

[pallid canopy]

but be careful purple vents r safest for lithium

[tacit comet]

At the bottom of the canyon

Purple vents is easier imo

[desert isle]

oh the bottom of the weird area with the blue light vines or something?

[tacit comet]

Just watch out for cryptosuchuses and heat

[tacit comet]

Yes

It's coral

[desert isle]

wheres the purple vents?

[tacit comet]

Past the thermal Spires, it has yellow rock and purple vents, you can miss it

To the left of delta island a bit

[desert isle]

oh ok thanks

[tacit comet]

Ofc!

Anytime!

[desert isle]

can you give a direction to delta island form the lifepod?

[river marlin]

Have you gotten the map of the bases yet

[clever stirrup]

i put 100 hours into my subnautica playthrough, would it be worth getting below zero

[river marlin]

Yeah if you like being in danger zones most of the time 👍😁👍

[tacit comet]

If you haven't gotten yet you're very early game

Just play until youbget a signal

[tropic gust]

hey guys

where do i find kyanite?

[tropic gust]

purple vents is best imo

[river marlin]

Below purple vents

In the big cave

[sharp wave]

Has anyone come across this weird error on the main menu? It's came up every time I've loaded the game up since I recently reinstalled it. I even verified the game files.

[tropic gust]

all i found was koppa

[oblique halo]

run as adminstrator

[tropic gust]

run as admin

[sharp wave]

oh ok gotta see how to do that with Steam and not having desktop thumbnails lol

oh okay I see how I can do that. I will try that when I open the game next

[flat hearth]

about to get the game

[tropic gust]

nice

[flat hearth]

are there any bugs on the mobile version

[tropic gust]

idk

[broken meadow]

Thanks btw it worked I can collect the creepvine clumps now

[broken meadow]

This worked just to clarify

[river marlin]

Well do you know where the big cave is

its gonna be in the ||crystal caverns|| below the purple vents

you will need to go far enough to get past the ||giant purple vent||

[tropic gust]

im in the lily pad area and in the cotton amone thing area and i cant find the body any ideas?

[river marlin]

Body?

[broken meadow]

Body?

[river marlin]

You don't recognize the bodies in the water 👁️👁️

[river marlin]

Both of us have goober energy profile pics

[broken meadow]

Yeah

[river marlin]

[river marlin]

Anyways what do you mean

[broken meadow]

I have no clue either

[river marlin]

Maybe they mean base?

[broken meadow]

I haven't made it to the dock yet cause I am scared

[tropic gust]

no like the architect body

[lusty basin]

try looking in the seafloor

[tacit comet]

Thus was my spotify pfp fur like a year lol

[river marlin]

Oh same place to get the kyonite

[broken meadow]

Is there anything on the way to the dock anything scary

[tropic gust]

oh bruh

[river marlin]

Well at least one of those is down there

[tacit comet]

No

[tropic gust]

alright

[river marlin]

But there should be a waypoint

[tacit comet]

There isnt

[river marlin]

I remember there being some

[tacit comet]

The only way point to an ||alan|| part you get is the one in ||deep lilypads||

[river marlin]

Which is where they are at

[tacit comet]

Ah gotcha

[river marlin]

Can't remember exactly where it was though

[abstract sorrel]

Is there a way to remove the plants on the ground? I cant build my base cuz there are plants everywhere!

[wary parcel]

Does BZ still use the Amy voice for the PDA?

[tropic gust]

found it

I already had the stuff to craft his skeleton XD

I have way too many materials

[lethal minnow]

Some of them. Which kind are you dealing with?

[snow peak]

yo i accidentally forgot to save my progress how do i get my progress back

[river marlin]

see thats the funny thing...you dont

[snow peak]

u being fr?

[river marlin]

good bye hours of work

first game was the same way

[lethal minnow]

Yes unfortunately

[river marlin]

there are some autosaves in sub2 thankfully

[plush ridge]

Guys, I can't remember quite well, but is there a base in the ||arctic spires||?

[tacit comet]

Like an alterra base?

There are small outposts

[plush ridge]

Yeah

[tacit comet]

But not a large base

[ebon glade]

i think theres a precurser base there

[plush ridge]

I've found the mining site but that's it and that ||ice worm|| lowk pmo

[tacit comet]

I love himb

He's silly

[plush ridge]

Isn't it called ||outpost zero||?

[tacit comet]

That's not in Arctic spires

[plush ridge]

Also I don't understand this spoiling stuff in the chat. What do I have to spoil and what not

[tacit comet]

Anything you'd be upset to have learned early

It depends who's in chat

Generally

[plush ridge]

Where is it then

[tacit comet]

I'd spoil anything that's ||frozen levi stuff, al-an late game (like body spots), Marguerit stuff||

Etc

[tacit comet]

It's qt the too of the map, so north, on the edge of the map

Go from glacial basin Bridge to the areaa you furst crashed in, hugging the left side of the ice on the edge of the map

I believe you duck under it, so be under the water level checking fur tunnels

It should be about halfway to the crashland spot

[plush ridge]

Also from what I remember isn't there a fur suit or something that prevents the cold? I died once

[tacit comet]

Yup!

Do you have the blueprints?

[plush ridge]

Nope

Where can I find the big aquarium or alien container or something

[tacit comet]

Oh good question

Hmmm I think it's in the ||mercury II ||

[plush ridge]

I don't think so, I've been looking for the processing unit. No sign of the container

[tacit comet]

It's in a different piece of it then

I think it's in the huge one in lilypads

[plush ridge]

Can't be, I've visited all of them

[tacit comet]

Then you must have missed it

[plush ridge]

Oh okay, I'll definitely have a look. Also, where can I find the storage modules?

[tacit comet]

Like seatruck storage modules or prawn storage modules?

[plush ridge]

Sea truck

[tacit comet]

Prawn is craftable at a mobile vehicle bay, seatruck is found in the ||deep twisty bridges|| The ||fabricator module|| is down there too

[plush ridge]

Do I have to have the ||docking module|| between all of them?

Also, where do I find||snow fox modules|| and the thermal suit?

[tacit comet]

Nope! The docking module is only fur prawn

[tacit comet]

The reinforced diving suit?

It's also in the mercury

Make sure you search everywhere inside each sship

[plush ridge]

Check dm

[wintry rover]

hi i started below zero recently where do i find seatruck fragments?

[plush ridge]

Crystal caves

[tacit comet]

Around Twisty bridges

[wintry rover]

i am NOT getting eaten by a shadow leviathan ryley robin-son

[tacit comet]

Friendly reminder that misleading new players is classified as trolling and is against server rules (rule 1)

[plush ridge]

Oh mb, won't happen again

[wintry rover]

where around the twisty bridges? I've been all around and I can't find seatruck fragments, also what are the marrowbreach looking things in the caves near the arctic creepvine forests they look scary 😭

[plush ridge]

I'll check the rules and come back cuz I haven't been here since 2025

[tacit comet]

You're good! I actually really appreciate you taking responsibility, apologizing, and going to read the rules, it's actually so rare, thanks dude, I appreciate it

[tacit comet]

Dawg did you play Sn2 furst?

It's In the canyon and on the border of twisty and the thermal spires

Look fur metal rectangles, sometimes with a thruster

[plush ridge]

What's the channel with the rules

[tacit comet]

#rules

[wintry rover]

i haven't played subnautica 2 yet, i'm waiting to finish below zero before I get sub2 like I did with the first subnautica. I just know some of the fauna because I'm naturally curious and couldn't wait

[wintry rover]

what's the thermal spires?

[tacit comet]

The black area with the hot pillars,

[tacit comet]

Fair haha

If you don't know what I'm talking about, just progress normally

[wintry rover]

oh hell no that has those dinosaur fish looking things with all the spikes

[tacit comet]

Hahaha

They're more bark than bite

[wintry rover]

they look scary 😨

[tacit comet]

They dooo

[oak tendon]

Where to find seatruck storage fragments and fur suit/reinforcement suit? Is it in safe area?

[tacit comet]

Seatruck storage is in ||deep twisty||, decently dangerous. Cold suit is ||on land in several locations, look in alterra bases|| not very dangerous. Reinforced diving suit is in ||1 of the Mercury II wrecks, the bridge, the big piece in lilypad Islands|| safe, aside from o2 if you aren't careful

[oak tendon]

Thank you 😁

[livid oar]

why does bz have worse graphics

[tacit comet]

It has the best imo

The biome design is so pretty

[tacit comet]

Anytime!

[livid oar]

I'm playing and I can see grainy things when moving in my seatruck

nvm i guess it was the fps cap

[rich sable]

||you know it is kinda interesting how smol the bz phase gate is. i don't think you could fit altera ships through it||

well unity engine what would you expect

[tacit comet]

It's almost like it wasn't intended fur alterra ships

[tacit comet]

It was fps cap

[rich sable]

makes me wonder how big the humanities phase gates are
must be kind of an ori supergate

[rich sable]

ugh do you think i have spoiled the game for them for mentioning the phase gates? like they were mentioned in og subnautica already

[tacit comet]

Yes

Spoiler them please

[rich sable]

too late now i guess

[jagged terrace]

anyone here know anything about subnautics BZ modding

[vale raptor]

well mod descriptions tell you what to do pretty well, just go to nexus mods and start with bepinex and nautilus

i cannot for the life of me figure out how to scan leviathans.. ||in the first game there was the stasis rifle but that isnt available so how would i scan something like the chelicerate??||

[rich sable]

@livid oar btw i see you are still online so please don't read what i wrote to not get spoiled

[steel stream]

Circle around it I guess🤷‍♂️

[vale raptor]

what about the other one?

[livid oar]

Oh nah u good I beat the game like a few days after it came out lol thanks though

[rich sable]

i don't think you need to scan them all anyway to get all chievos

[celest phoenix]

Hard agree!! Below Zero is a gorgeous game! Cotton anemone biome my beloved!

One of the "worst" (if you could call it that) parts of the game for me was deciding where to put my main base because Every Biome Was Gorgeous! I was paralysed with indecision. It's not like Sn2 where I have a clear favourite or anything.

I decided on just making 3 and had a lot of fun 😅

[storm moss]

holy where is the remaining ultra high cap h20 tank 💔💔🥹

[vale raptor]

crevice! sea monkeys!

[storm moss]

huhhhh I can't find it thi what biome dyk where it is

[vale raptor]

||lilly pads crevice, just go to marguerit maidas base and explore the caves in that area, the sea monkey nests have everything||

[storm moss]

goated

[rich sable]

i will never understand we do people hate on bz it may be shorter then the og one it is still great

@celest phoenixhave you played early access the og story

[storm moss]

they're larpers

[celest phoenix]

It's high key my favourite out of all of them, I adore it so much, it's a story about grief that actually means a lot to me

[celest phoenix]

Sadly no! I'm actually a newbie believe it or not, I picked up Subnautica 1 about 5 months ago and finished Below Zero 3 months ago! 😅 I regret not playing it beforehand, I've been obsessed with it ever since

[rich sable]

i like well i love all of them

[rich sable]

aw so sad

but hey the one we god is still great

[celest phoenix]

Oh don't get me wrong Sn1 and 2 are fantastic, I'm highly enjoying myself, but like Below Zero is just special to me, I love it a whole lot

[storm moss]

🫩

[rich sable]

reason we i went right away into sn2 ea

i missed on og sn ea did not miss bz ea and know i just neeed to

[celest phoenix]

I knowww I have learned there's Lot of cut content and now I'm developing an encyclopedic knowledge about it all because like... I need More lol

The tworlock aside dialogue and "how is a sea monkey supposed to know what you need? I've looked through the entirety of your PDA and not even I know what you need" aside dialogues being cut is a war crime.

[rich sable]

what i like the most are our Robins

[celest phoenix]

Hi?

[storm moss]

Hello

[rich sable]

Riley Robinson and Robin Ayu

[vale raptor]

ive got two complaints honestly, 1. immersion, the transition from biomes doesnt feel real, it feels like a game, 2. tightness, everything feels so cramped and tightly packed together, like we need biomes with space and open area, it adds to the fear factor you know? knowing you're so small in such a vast place ||(like the dunes and grass plateaus in the first game)|| bonus one: the story feels a bit boring, like i never found myself curious as to ||what happened to sam, more so as to what happened to al-an||, unlike the first game, where i was dying to know everything? ||how did the aurora crash?! what happened to the other survivors?! why did the alien structure shoot down my rescue ship?? why are these alien structures destroyed? why did they steal this egg from a sea dragon? what happened to them?|| and thats why i find below zero inferior to the first game, but tbh if it came out prior to the first game it'd be the 10/10 game the original one was

[celest phoenix]

I'm pleasantly surprised with the whole early access, semi open development thing. I am used to Nintendo and their nonsense, getting crumbs of lore. I did not expect Sn2 to have ||anything about the Architects in it|| and then I go to That Place and hear ||In Search of Familiar Harmonies|| and I'm like "oh no I'm so emotional" lol

[rich sable]

smoler game i get you

you know i still have 200+ hours in bz

tho a part of it is from ea

[vale raptor]

wdym

[storm moss]

good take yes yes the game is so tight and enclosed

[rich sable]

i played the game a lot in early access

[vale raptor]

ahh ok

[celest phoenix]

Yeah what was with the emote? Do you have something to add...? This genuinely confuses me

[storm moss]

it's nothing dw. I support ur opinion on bz

[vale raptor]

oh yeah, to add to the first point, the immersion (transitions from one biome to another) in below zero, transitions are often sudden, like ||you could be swimming in the tree spire where everything is blue, to a sudden harsh green like in the lily pad islands, and there is nothing to really know when you're in a new biome apart from the water color, but in the first game, you could see the spikes in crag field! or the hugeee drop off in the underwater islands, or even bulbs in the bulb zone, in below zero things just change colors, like the thermal spires, and the tree spires, and the lilypad islands,|| like in that general area the biomes feel so artificially transitioned, just not real

[rich sable]

not everyone can always be super positive

[celest phoenix]

Ahh okay? You don't have to y'know. It's not like I don't have critiques either I just don't feel like being miserable about stuff right now

[storm moss]

Well I'm very sorry woman

[vale raptor]

dude 😭

[storm moss]

ratio

[celest phoenix]

What?

[vale raptor]

going to be honest with you, best you can do is just ignore him 😂

[storm moss]

im js saying sorry?

[vale raptor]

does anyone know how to scan ||the shadow leviathan, should i just use the sea truck aggro method ? ||

[celest phoenix]

Yeah I’m just going to… leave and get ready for the day, I’m clearly not getting something here. See you all later I suppose

[storm moss]

okay goodbye

[celest phoenix]

You have a nice day! ☺️

[plush ridge]

where do i make modules

?

[celest phoenix]

Either the fabricator for MK I or the modification station for MK II onwards for depth modules, perimeter defence etc. for the SeaTruck modules (the little compartments) you need to use the mobile vehicle bay

Then you swim over to the little bar, interact with it and then swim around to attach the module to the back of the seatruck

[plush ridge]

made || 1 fabricator module, 2 storage modules and 1 sleeper module|| it think its perfect for long exploration and resourcing

[vale raptor]

i find the fab + storage is perfect

[vale raptor]

is the ||prawn suit method of killing leviathans|| still viable in below zero?

[nimble python]

Do any of yall know why Unkown Worlds decided to make a whole new story instead of continuing from the ending of BZ? When I saw that Subnautica 2 doesnt follow the events, I was very let down and sad

[vale raptor]

subnautica 2 ?

[nimble python]

Ye, im doing 3 other things rn so I messed up a tad

The ending of BZ very much lines up a sequel

[bold monolith]

On the contrary I feel like it doesn't have to. It is open ended, sure. But I don't think Robin will now explore an underwater world with ||Al-An|| in their ||cloudy city||.

[nimble python]

Idk, I think im just messed up from how bad Subnautica 2 feels. I refunded it as it just feels like a cheap copy youd find as a quick cash grab before the actual team gets it taken down. Im replaying 1 and then BZ to go back to the actual Subnautica feeling

[vale raptor]

i struggled with the graphics, game doesnt look much better compared to the other two yet it kills my computer unlike the other two, im talking 15 fps on lowest settings with upscaling

it is in early access though.. hope it gets better

[jagged terrace]

What does this mean??

[thorny swan]

really? Below Zero looks so much better than subnautica on my ps5.

[thorny swan]

you asked for a refund because an early access product didn't feel polished? You volunteered to be a QA tester for an unfinished product when you bought it.

[nimble python]

Damn. Automod deleted my response because I said a different word for poo

[vale raptor]

they look just about the same, im talking about subnautica 2, the new game

[wintry rover]

i saw a chelicerate i'm never leaving this island

[plush ridge]

A tour of my early game base. I pretty much added everything there is too add. (everything was made on survival, in about 8-10 hours). In the ||sleeper module|| you can see how my base looked before.

[plush ridge]

What do y'all think?

[tawny merlin]

10/10 love the base

[sharp jay]

its really nice

[indigo flint]

Can leviathan destroy your home? Example the glasses one

[heavy sage]

id get lost

[plush ridge]

It's in the shallows, only fish around there

[plush ridge]

It's pretty easy to memorize lol

[simple sun]

Does silver spawns at some certain depth? Cant find any around starting point

[plush ridge]

Go around 100m deep, you'll find it in Argentine outcrop

[long valve]

Argentine outcrop 🥀

[cloud shell]

Argenite is usually found in the kelp root caves or around delta station / twisty bridges early on

[long valve]

Argenite 🥀

Hi Cerbi

[cyan yew]

yo i recently started playing subnautica below zero, any tips on finding vechicle blueprint thingys?

[fading notch]

ill be playing bz tomorrow playing S1 atm lol

[white ether]

hey guys this is actually my account that posted this, but discord restricted it for whatever reason.

[unique root]

Hey Guys

why are ||ice worms ||not spawning ?

[quiet frigate]

Where are you, maybe they don’t spawn there

[unique root]

Ice spires biome ofc

[quiet frigate]

Well then idk lol, maybe you’re just lucky

[unique root]

dude i want them to spawn...

[quiet frigate]

How come

[unique root]

does prawn suit make them spawn?

[quiet frigate]

Yeah should do

[white ether]

run and jump, noise should make them spawn

[tepid summit]

how do i make it up here

[vital sentinel]

Fishing in Subnautica be like: 🤏

[steep solar]

Swim up?

[tepid summit]

fym swim

[steep solar]

Idk i never had below zero is that game evem good?

I only had the og game

[tepid summit]

i didnt wanna play it cuz of all the hate but its genuinely not bad at all, its pretty good and fun if u like the orignal you will like this one

Ok wait

Pending request

[tepid summit]

[split folio]

... why are you like this??

[lusty basin]

"found the drop pod!"

[full spire]

we got any idea if subnautica 1 and below zero are coming to game pass soon? cause id love to play below zero

[pine furnace]

Hello chat

[split folio]

hello

[pine furnace]

Im playing Below Zero for the first time, i've beaten OG Subnautica a week ago peak game. Sons of The Forest and Subnautica 1 is competing who is better survival game for me

[ancient kelp]

Nah, Sn1 is superior

[pine furnace]

Yea I think so. I need help tho, where to find Spiral Plant?

[ancient kelp]

In one of the ||purple thermal vents by a wreck|| or inside a ||vent garden||

[tacit comet]

||Deep purple vents specifically, doesn't need to be the wreck||

[ancient kelp]

Yeah but I also am currently only on second playthrough (not very far in) so when I first played, that's where I located mine. By the ||wreck|| and in the ||vent garden||. So I haven't really fully learned this game like I did Sn1

[regal carbon]

What's the furthest anyone has tried to gently push eye jellies away from their initial biome?

[lyric yew]

imo bz is better

[ancient kelp]

I wish to know why

[lyric yew]

might be the leviathans and fauna in general

anyways i think all subnautica games are absolutely peak

[ancient kelp]

Interesting, but I guess I can agree. At least for Shadow and Ice but that's really it. But I do agree that all are great, but still putting together my opinions on Sn2 since I'm still working through EA

[lyric yew]

worst thing for me is i fear im missing out on things by not exploring absolutely every part of the map

[ancient kelp]

I don't have that fear with Sn1 😂 . But for this one (BZ), I kinda do but working out pinpoints and getting over a fear of getting lost under the water in those annoying locations. Especially while looking for certain things with a other certain something (hope that makes sense lmao)

[lyric yew]

i hate the land islands they so confusing and idk where to go to see smt i need etc im on my first playthrough

[regal carbon]

How is that a fear? You can always explore later

[ancient kelp]

My first playthrough going through land was absolute h e l l... but this time around I'm doing a pin point note taking learn through tutorials type playthrough. Got a notebook and everything

[lyric yew]

cuz like idk lol

[magic perch]

any1 know how to get multiplayer mods for bz

[lyric yew]

wow nice

[ancient kelp]

I missed the whole point of the story with something before leaving the planet and I didn't realize it till I started watching other people play it. My heart started beating and went, "oh.... so I missed so much to experience" I literally missed the whole point of why my character was going there in the first place because I didn't know it was there and traveling on land in BZ is just... well... not a great thing to begin with. Missing something and not exploring fully just makes me feel unaccomplished and worry if I'll find it and other places with the map to enjoy the exploration on your own. Not sure if that ties in with it being a fear but I guess in a way it might be?

[ancient kelp]

I will say though, beacons on land are your bestest of friends. Testing that out some point when I get to it

[regal carbon]

But you can always go back (on the same save) to experience what you did miss

It's not like games of the 90s where your save was useless after finishing the game (I still blame Squaresoft for this)

[ancient kelp]

Not the same as when you do it before leaving because it's a crucial part of the story and everything. Feels out of place doing it afterwards

[hidden quartz]

what actually was the point of below zero?

[ancient kelp]

For your character to figure out what happened to her sister and finish what she started

[hollow thunder]

Expand on the architect lore

[regal carbon]

Alleviating Marguerit's paranoia

[hidden quartz]

i meant from a non story standpoint

[ancient kelp]

I guess then I'll have to agree with The Rat considering what goies on in the game

[celest phoenix]

As far as I’m aware it was originally planned to be a DLC for Sn1, and then it became big enough to be it’s own like side game

[hidden quartz]

sorta like a hollow knight silksong thing, except silksong was actually good

[ancient kelp]

Yeah and I realized the start to the game is different as well. When I first played this game her sister was alive and was helping her. When she got ||Al-an|| she had to send up a sample of her blood or something because something changed with her and he had to hide away. So watching others play it and playing it a second time it was all so weird to me but also kinda understandable

[celest phoenix]

That comment at the end was unnecessary

[celest phoenix]

Ah I never got to play the EA build, that sounds really interesting actually! I wish they’d kept some of that stuff in, about what the long term impacts would be with having an Architect just.. in your brain. It looks and sounds like that consciousness transfer process also hurts Robin a lot, and on my first play through I honestly expected Al-an leaving her body to nearly kill her.

But yeah, I am disappointed with some of the things that were changed/cut. A lot of perfectly good aside dialogue between the two was cut as well for reasons I can’t discern. It’s frustrating but I still enjoyed myself, so I can’t complain too much. Really wish folk would be just a tiny bit less miserable about this game though, especially in communities/spaces specifically for it

[ancient kelp]

Yeah a lot changed with BZ and I will be honest, I never knew I was playing EA when I first played it 😅 eventually it made sense and wish some character aspects stayed but it's still pretty good in its own connective way. But going down, she's talking with someone and then suddenly she's just going through everything alone. The storm never hindered any communication in EA but the whole thing did a 180 and it's just.... greatly bad. Idk, a blended mixture that isn't balanced right

[lusty basin]

Guys, why is some of the wild life in this game very...err...grabby?

[fading notch]

alriiight time to play BZ for the first time was doing alot on S1

[desert isle]

how do you connect the || seatruck modules? ||

[long valve]

Go into with the back of your sestruck

[desert isle]

i tried that and accidentally exploded it

[long valve]

Uhh idk i think thats how it should work maybe u could look up a youtube vid its been long since i played bz

[desert isle]

oh ok

[long valve]

OH WAIT you might have to grab it with yiur hand and push to the end of seatruck

[desert isle]

oh ill try that

[long valve]

Alr tell me if it worked

[desert isle]

i just need the materials to make another one first

[unkempt bear]

I'm done🤣 I am even more lost than first time around. Been swimming around for half an hour diving in random trenches. Bumping into sheet. Completely forgot how annoying this game was🤣

[long valve]

Fr its just random caves i found half of them before getting a signal

[unkempt bear]

I love the seatruck and I'd like to have it in Subnautica 1 IT IS NOT BUILT for below zero. I read somewhere devs are blocking attempts to port it. I was hoping there is a mod somewhere that ports it. Nope.

[long valve]

Hmm yeah below zero is like so narrow and doesnt have enough empty water space if u know what i mean not even tslking abt the amount of land

[unkempt bear]

I know exactly what you mean. The fear of large ocean is gone. They tackled claustrophobia with this one. Terrible move.

[long valve]

Yeah also the sea truck can be long for the stuffed biomes (twisted bridges)but i like how the speed/size of it is adjustable like this

[fading notch]

alright now i can play bz lol had to finish upgrading all the depth mods for the vehicles in S1

i love snow this is going to be niceeeee

[long valve]

😬 how do we tell him

[desert isle]

i figured it out thanks

[unkempt bear]

The absolute best moment was when I struggled to kill a bear to get its fur only to realise... You know😂

[rich meteor]

Found every major land base I think but still haven't build a land base much less a fox bike or wtv it is

[long valve]

Aaaaa yes xdd

[long valve]

At my first playthrough i didnt either but i didnt even need it💀 then second time i tried it and spent like 30secs before i got bored with it

[unkempt bear]

I believe you need it to jump over a bridge... Found that mofo base btw

[rich meteor]

I just replaced the hydraulic fluid to lower the bridge so I didn't need it

[long valve]

5more to go xdd

[unkempt bear]

I did get quite far when game came out, never completed it though. Already put like 200h in sub2, needed a break.

[long valve]

Its a nice vibe to play bz, just enjoy the graphics and dont think about the story

[unkempt bear]

You know what's funny? Every game that has swimming as an option makes it extremely clumsy and unintuitive... With subnautica games it's the other way around😂😂😂. I'm a enjoy the vibe of crashing into everything with my seatruck...

[long valve]

Yeah, I mean the whole game based on underwater survival, but yeah i love it

[unkempt bear]

What i meant was, walking is clumsy😂

[long valve]

Ooh yeaaa, also lets not even talk about the snowfox

[nimble python]

Whats everyones favourite poster in Subnautica BZ?

[long valve]

This one

[nimble python]

eh wha

Ah, Cut/Placeholder

[long valve]

Yeah, for placeable ones i like the s1 referenves, like sea dragon poster or quarantine facility poster

[nimble python]

Im struggling to find any sort of high res one for either the sea dragon one or the reaper one. I have a vertical monitor and itd be cool to have as a wallpaper but its a little blurry

[long valve]

Hmm well both those are vertical tho right?

[nimble python]

Like this one. The blurryness is not too noticeable? But the text at the bottom is

[nimble python]

Ye. This one I feel like could be really good for a tshirt or smth

[long valve]

Fr its fire

[nimble python]

I did find one which was slightly higher res but they edited out Unknown Worlds and put their own, and stylised the water and reaper abit

[long valve]

I think for wallpaper there are a lot of s1 wallpapers, like early concept arts available

[grave dune]

is the game worth buying?

[long valve]

Yes, it was just on discount tho

[grave dune]

i got it on discount on the mobile port

[nimble python]

Its a great game, just do not go in expecting it to be as great as the first game. Thats what bogged me down at first

[grave dune]

Oh, wait, never mind, not Below Zero. Below Zero is 4.29 on the mobile port. Is that the base price?

[grave dune]

I see. I'll finish Subnautica 1, but I don't know how much it costs normally or if it's on sale on the mobile port.

[nimble python]

BZ is currently £26

[grave dune]

im talking about mobile the price is different on the mobile port

[fading notch]

alright time to grind lol hahaha niceeee

[nimble python]

I dont do mobile gaming lol

[grave dune]

welp

[fading notch]

i bought bz for 7.50 through xbox app lol

[grave dune]

in your opinion is the game fun though like do you guys like ot

[fading notch]

well i just started but since i bought for 7.50 it will be worth it to no matter what lol

to me*

[lucid pilot]

||if maida swam to sector zero using a reaper as a boat, did she have to sail across the void orr||

[nimble python]

Does anyone know where I can get a higher res one for a wallpaper? This is the one from the wiki

[strong minnow]

@tame flame

[fading notch]

this thing tryna grab me lmao

[lethal minnow]

Yes

[jagged terrace]

What do I do here-

[torn nimbus]

You test the override module port

[torn nimbus]

She flew

[fading notch]

i like the blizzard look its niceeee

[jagged terrace]

won't let me?

[vague prawn]

i heard this game is ah

[torn nimbus]

find the overridee module port

[hollow thunder]

Kiss him

[lethal minnow]

It's not a bad game, but it's not as good as the original

[oak tendon]

Do you guys know where to find seatruck perimeter defense besides Margaret seabase?

[tacit comet]

I don't believe theres another spot

Lemme check

Yup

Only margs base

[oak tendon]

Oh no 🥺... Margaret seabase now locked inside ,, I can't get in

[tacit comet]

Have you talked with her yet?

[oak tendon]

Yes i talked to her and disconnect the signal tower ... When i comeback to her seabase, it's locked inside

[tacit comet]

She sent you a message

Meet her on the iceberg

[oak tendon]

I missed the item when i come to her seabase for the first time

[tacit comet]

I think it's east about a kilometer? Double check that with the pda atho

[tacit comet]

You can get it later, meet her at the greenhouse

[oak tendon]

Ahh,, okey2 .. thanks 👍

[tacit comet]

Of course! Good luck!

Don't forget to double check the pda

I'm not 100% confident in the direction I gave you

[lost scaffold]

guys the ending of below zero kinda confuses me, so like what even actually happens besides the fact that she goes to some alien city

[tacit comet]

She's saved an ||architect and potentially discovered so much more about their species, it's intentionally left vague to incite discussion||

[lost scaffold]

oh ok thanks

[tacit comet]

Ofc!

[vale raptor]

hey so i need some help

[finite solar]

with?

[vale raptor]

so i went afk for about 10 minutes, and i had just done some mining with my ||prawn suit so i left it to charge by the purple vents and when i had come back i found it destroyed probably by a chelicerate and i died shortly after, now my last save was 2 hours prior and that prawn suit was stacked with materials and upgrades and im just very disappointed, i dont think i have the time to get everything back manually and id like to avoid using any console commands to retain achievements||

[jagged terrace]

huh where-

[torn nimbus]

under there

[vale raptor]

@finite solar

[jagged terrace]

💀

[vale raptor]

haha made you say... 🙏

[steel stream]

If you want to keep achievements, reload last save (and save more often in the future...) or suck it up and continue🤷‍♂️

[vale raptor]

how can i reload the last save

[steel stream]

Quit without saving and reload

[vale raptor]

ah it's too late for that, i suppose i dont mind using console but is there anyway to find exactly what i lost? i dont want to feel like i was cheating

[finite solar]

i guess just follow your footsteps from what you remember

[steel stream]

You just have to remember what you had in prawn and your own inventory (or prawn only, personal inventory items are dropped to where you died)

[vale raptor]

no way to see it ?

[torn nimbus]

was this funny chat?

[vale raptor]

also i cant find my items

[vernal oyster]

The below zero menu page still showcases a "Subnatica 2 coming soon" post instead of a post regarding S2 entering EA.

General question: I'm playing BZ for the 2nd time (After a HAWT minute) after fully playing S1 & the S2 EA. I noticed that the above ground starting area was completely removed? Are the other above ground areas ||Specifically where the giant ice worm leviathan is|| changed at all?

[tacit comet]

The starting area should still be there?

Hmm

[vernal oyster]

I say "completely removed" as the last time I played BZ you started above ground. I'm still >1hr into this BZ playthrough and the drop pod start threw me off.

[tacit comet]

Ahh okay

Gotcha

Yeah you dont start at outpost zero anymore

Wow it's been more than a hot minute lol

[vernal oyster]

Oh yeah, I haven't played BZ in a long time. But I remember less from BZ than I do in S1 so after the S2 EA content I figured I'd replay BZ lol

[tacit comet]

Well have fun!

[vernal oyster]

But given the sale it's the first time I've bought it on steam so now I'll be inclined to finish the story for 100% achievements like I did in S1. I never fully finished the story the first time I tried BZ

Side note; being able to que crafted items on the fabricator has the be the biggest QoL update in S2 in comparison to the first two games.

[amber lava]

wdym the starting area was removed? i still crash landed in the normal spot myself

oh sorry my discord hadnt loaded

[storm jewel]

I don’t get the hate BZ gets. It’s been a fun experience so far for me. Not as enjoyable as S1 but it’s not nearly as bad as it’s made out to be by some people

[steel stream]

I guess to some people "not as good as the first one" = "trash"🤷‍♂️
They are both good games.

[amber lava]

im really loving the colder colour schemes and the more lit up shallows area at night

[grand kindle]

The twisty bridges are so pretty at night too

[nimble python]

They apparently dont have the hi res versions. Why did you ping them?

[silent sandal]

I wish the leviathan from the ice would wake up

Or something,i mean in a few years or thousand years it will,technically,but i wish it would've moved

[ornate ridge]

[ebon monolith]

people be saying below zero sucks, im having the most fun ive ever had my entire life playing this game 😭

[long valve]

I think most people say it sucks because of the story

[ebon monolith]

damn i dont mind the story tbh

[silent sandal]

Its not as scary as subnaurica 1,only the leviathan in the crystal biom

[sour latch]

I had the exact same experience. Before buying saw so many reviews belitteling it and constantly comparing it to the first game, but the game itself is still really really good and way above average.

If youre liking it a lot now I think youre going to love the ending

[cyan yew]

day 2 of asking, anyone got any tips on finding vechicle fragments in below zero? peferbly above 200 meters

[sour latch]

fragments of what the seatruck? Theyre scattered to multiple locations, theres some I had found in the green biome towards the direction of the lost pilot (you can turn that on to find where it is), most of them I found where those purple craters are and going deeper but still above 200 meters

[stray spoke]

this place dead as hell

[fading notch]

this game is good forget the haters who hate but can not make there own video games lol

[hollow thunder]

I agree but lowkey criticism for a game can't be shut down just if it's from someone that isn't a game dev

[fading notch]

for sure

time to wake n bake into the seaaaa of the artic lmao

[fading notch]

nicee you can have an aquarium in your sea truck

[amber lava]

yo what was the creature that was huge chasing me looking like it was paddling towards me 😭

[fading notch]

some croc thing lol

[cyan yew]

ok, thank you so much!!

[nimble python]

Anyone got hi res textures of the in game posters? I would really like one for my vertical monitor (the reaper one) but the only one I can find ends up a tiny bit blurry

[mortal nimbus]

Has anyone gotten their seatruck stuck how to get it out!!

[storm jewel]

Love the sea truck. Hopefully we get a cool vehicle like it in S2

[unreal storm]

I want the prawn suit

[wind geyser]

My friend did a thing

He made it back

[storm moss]

lowkey squid shark is scarier than a chelicerate

[left thicket]

Void chelicerate tho? 💔

[storm moss]

what's that

I js bought sn bz like a week ago

[left thicket]

Swim to the edge of the world, youll find out

[storm moss]

Won't that be the ghost leviathan

[left thicket]

Thats only in first game

[storm moss]

where can I find a high cap o2 tank

some1 said monkey nest in ||Lily pads|| so that's my plan rn since I have made myself a habitat

[left thicket]

Thats ultra high

[storm moss]

oh right I'm sorry

[left thicket]

But If you want the high cap its located in twisty bridges

There should be a data box at a small base

Its like 100m deep

[storm moss]

I alr have that, all I need is the ultra high

[hidden quartz]

is below zero actually worth it?

[tacit comet]

100%!

[wind crown]

if you like subnautica, definitely

[hidden quartz]

i've heard the map is pretty small

[storm moss]

yes

[tacit comet]

Not really

I don't notice it

[storm moss]

lowkey super dooper extremely enclosed

worth it tho frfr, you'll love it when it's night time in below zero

[wind crown]

it's a bit smaller and there is a land section, they utilize vertical space very well though

[storm moss]

visuals are good in bz yesyes

[hidden quartz]

i'll be getting the game on switch 2 tho

[tacit comet]

Even better than sn1

The biomes are jut gorgeous

We need more of that, sn2 is just so bland imo

[hidden quartz]

eh looking at this comparasion is a little more than slightly smaller

[hidden quartz]

sn2 is still in EA

[tacit comet]

I know

Believe me, I'm aware lol
