whats your personal fav bz soundtrack
Somewhere there is an alternate reality where the Methane Ice Caves weren't cut
mines the main menu one and maybe the arctic spires
its one of my faves
the beggining is creepy
its in the ventgarden biomes
but it starts to sound like axolotl (minecraft ost)
tree spires
i put all my fav regular sub osts in my bz jukebox
I think one of my favorite songs is "A Thousand Strings"
i pray for the mods to add the jukebox music list
ooo thats also great
There's a universe where SN:BZ's map is big than SN's map.
im listening to cathedral and its becoming great
yes
my personal fav in regular sub is Unknown Flora
There's a universe where Subnautica: Below Zero is in Subnautica
and ofc abandonship
My favorite is Precipice.
methane ice caves had a cooler concept for final biome
crystal caves is boring and feels empty
im listening to cath and im starting to like it
Crystal Caves is pretty cool
i never heard the next part of it
There is a universe where you are the main character, Tyco.
red alert
How to travel between universes
i love the song 'We Exist As Data'
Find someone who can do that wacky tacky cool stuff.
my friend hates the twisty bridges theme
I like it, but im a bit sick of it since my base is there
same here
everytime it plays i turn on my jukebox to hear some minecraft osts
who here puts minecraft songs into their jukeboxes
so, i did it. i bought the OST on bandcamp, with some extra tips
sea shanties for me
funny thing - a paid for the game just 1/5 $ more than for OST
LOL I never THOUGHT of IT like that
there once was a ship that took to sea and the name of the ship was the billy-o-tea
but winds blew hard and bowed it down, go there billy-oi go
soon may the wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum
i realised its actually called Dragon Fish i tried to reference
imma put this to my jukebox
is it normal that when u listen to music u start to sweat and get goosebumps at once
I also recomend bones in the ocean
i finished adventure time and the credits song plays i started to get goosebumps
happens for most shows
im gonna put the get shwifty song from rick and morty into my jukebox
i cant wait for mods
Is there any bending in this game?
bending?
There is a tunnel but I can't enter I'm tall
haha, tall
oh you mean like crouching
no you have to use a special device to get in those small caves
You're going to need a Spy Pengling.
You would know if you listened to your sister's calls.
okey
easy man
my fav song in regular sub is called ||Lava Castle||
rlx
spy penguin theme reminds me of macarina
I am relaxed.
a pinnacarid!! a lovely little creature :)
noice
they'll walk around on land sometimes and curiously swim up to you in the water
you can feed them fish from your hand
the devs seem evil when they didnt add the pet option for them
there movement is 👌
I think you used to be able to ride them but they removed it because they were too small (I could be wrong)
my friend was streaming bz and a pinnacarid scared him, he got in his seatruck and the pinnacarid followed, then my friend was going down and the pinnacarid got smoshed
aw noo D:
the pinnacarids are just curious they won't do anything to you other than follow you for food
the soundtrack Spinefish sounds like some rattle snake mating ritual
Ben Prunty streaming
oml
yup I know I got the @
how do i disable mouse vibration for rival 710
so, penglings respawn, correct?
I don't think they do?
wiki seems to say 300s respawn
i would join in dev stream if twitch account making wasnt so annyoing
if that's correct... is there anything setopping me from running a bioreactor solely off abducted penglings?
god will judge you
s'all good, if god really didnt want animals to get hurt he did a very bad job of creating the world.
yeah
Well unless ur pro you will of died at one point
And the penglings are protected

haven't died yet. just made it to "git off mah land" lady's base
Cool
few close calls though. My thalassophobia helps keep me safe 😛
I only died of drowning in the shipwrecks
Lol
Actually that was a lie there were some other times
my first reaction to everything is "nope!"
Ben Prunty is launching the Subnautica: Below Zero soundtrack today, he's doing a livestream right now: https://www.twitch.tv/benprunty
I make music for games! Sometimes I stream my creative process and sometimes I stream playing games.
😄
is the frozen leviathan in the glacial basin
Check the forest
use the phi robotics map
Is there an outfit to protect us from the cold in this game?
sorry, but what's the release date?
may 14th
nice, thx
yes
hey 11 days after my birthday
My 2 days ago
15 days before mine
birthday present i wanted this game
we all close 
when da hek is the full release gonna be
can we get a compulsory message when u enter this channel that says release date and what is coming with full release
sigh may 14th
ah yes ok
is there a list of things that can be grown? Anything useful to grow in an exterior growbed in water?
or only decorative plants?
growing ribbon plants can be quite useful
will "normal" crops care if they're out in the cold? like chinese potatoes?
I'm not really sure but I don't think so
Just pre-ordered a physical copy of Below Zero at my local GameStop. Feeling good.
nice
Can we please get a way to remove these? I'm currently building a base, and these are poking through the floor. So far I haven't been able to do anything about it
Its probably not gonna happen
Yea. We can always dream
so I got a little cozy base here not too deep under the surface. any tips on how to get some exterior growplots set up at the surface? Is there a way to create an accessible platform up there? Or some sort of open room that can take the growplots?
I think you might be able to place a foundation around .25 m above the water. You should be able to access it easily while growing stuff on land
Yea. After a bit they bocome your friends
It becomes very helpful
but do they steal stuff still or not?
happens after the [spoiler] tags along with you
Nope
damn thats cool that they implemented that
building near sea monkeys is great... free stuff
True xd
i found them annoying when they were first added, now theyre cute actually xD
True. I had so much trouble with them. All of a sudden, when I did that thing that makes them friendly, they were so nice to have
they gave me quartz xD its so funny
The ones in the Deep Lily pads gives nickel sometimes
it genuinly gives a smile on my face
The way they come up to you as well. So cute
exactly haha
i literally didnt play bz for almost a year
1 may 2020 was the last time a couple of days ago
I wonder if at random parts morely a day in game marge goes to different place more on her main base or her land base
Either I cant say the land base name or i can I'm not sure
is it even a good idea to watch "reacting to the scariest videos on the internet" while playing subnautica(belowzero) when its almost midnight
im gonna be jumpscared by 10 thousand things at once
now it is yes
Huh
its may
Still the 30th of April for me
yeah that, its called like summer clock or whatever
imagine being in april lol
hmm its also cause you probably live in america or somewhere else right?
yeah i live somewhere in europe, so time difference
good for you that it is may
so let me get this right
When 12 o clock am strikes on the 13th to the 14th does below zero come out
depends on when that time is when it releases i think (not sure tho) i think if they release it for example 3 o clock PDT then i'll not be able to play it i think?
well it would be midnight on may 15th i suppose
idk if it actually works like that or if steam just releases it on the exact time (midnight) or that there maybe is a exact time for it idk
For me I'm playing it in ps4
13 days and 5 hours to go
:(
If only I can manipulate the ps4 clock to may 14th and below zero gets in my hands.... Probably not happening
i gotta say, after playing regular subnautica again in a world with 8 hours playtime, i love having to pin my recipes
in below zero then
For you 2 to 1 week for bz release
yeah but ps4 cant play EA right?
EA?
No... no you can't unfortunately
guys a GTX 650 can run on 60 fps below zero? with low graphics
Idk
depends on cpu
A8-7600, it runs all my games to 60 fps
u might. but it wont be stable
k
not sure if this is a spoiler but gonna mark it anyway im wondering if there is ever going to be ||an infinite ion cube generator like subnautica 1 has||?
thanks for spoiler marking stuff
since i sometimes come to this chat for no reason
before playing the game
(:
idk wat to do in sbubnautica below 0 anymore
kidnap penglings
so I stumbled on outpost zero while still only having checked out one artifact and it seems to proc voicelines with alan. Am I skipping story stuff and potentially ruining things?
yeah kind of
alright, not going to get into teh alien building then
will come back later, hopefully alan gets back to where he should be story-wise
the game is deisgned to be played in any order
I just realized that I could have used the prawn as a land vehicle instead of, you know, running around like a maniac.
you could use snowfox as also
@jovial tiger snowfox was mostly increasing frustration when I tried using it
Yep, snowfox is annoying to handle.
so I bought Below Zero quite a while back but was waiting for it to spend more time in the oven for the devs to finish it off. With the official release in like 2 weeks, is the experimental branch feature complete enough to just dive in now?
...I feel that due to several (IMO rather unfortunate) design decisions whenever leaving the starting/safe area in Below Zero you probably should be going in prawn suit
so in the east arctic the PDA told me something about a moulin and I started looking around since who knows where get-off-my-lawn lady's greenhouse is and while walking around this iceberg Alan talked as if I had found a new artifact and gave me a signal... but I didnt find anything on this iceberg. I know scanning those things can unlock blueprints so any clue where that thing might be?
Was wondering this too, just started playing today but wondering if I should wait for the release
game is feature complete as far as I know, they're just holding back the final piece of the story
so worth starting
I'm guessing all the content is there, as they would probably want it all in there for testing
so final piece of the story isn't til release?
it's what I read
Ahh okay, cheers!
Just dont want to miss out on anything lol
Wonder if the experimental branch would have it, or if it's tight to the vest
I bet testing of the final story part is closed group
well I imagine it takes longer than an evening to get up to where the story is held up lol
depends on your pace - Id say 10 hours maybe, unless you are rushing it
why?
Are the tracks Ten Thousand Souls and In Search of Familiar Harmonies even in game yet?
but yeah. I was walking around this otherwise seemingly empty iceberg when Alan said he felt more connected now and unlocked new coordinates. Was there supposed to actually be something in the iceberg im missing but got close enough to? Dont want to miss any scannable, leave and never remember which if these icy rocks it was
was actually looking for the greenhouse :x
Okay so the track Ten Thousand Souls isn’t even in game and Slow Burn isn’t in game either
@crystal oriole there are numerous big predators in just about every biome (giant iguanas, squid-sharks, ~bears...) - don't forget the ice worm - the above water ice area is huge hassle to get around without prawn jump
It almost sounds like the track “The Dark” could be in reference to the edge of the map.
the daisy chain submarine (name?) is pain to drive with more modules and barely any good without modules
mmmh, I miss the stasis rifle.
How can I go full Marguerit without a stasis rifle?
and unlike original Subnautica there are no areas so big that they would give prawn trouble
No harpoon gun or other deadly options in Below Zero I'm guessing?
No, just a knife and your sheer will.
so just a knife then. 😐
I tried the torpedoes, they're not very reliable. I don't understand why they exists.
False hope?
"In search of familiar harmonies" a music from the bz soundtrack is awesome
if fred had the shock module he wouldn't have a problem with the hostile fauna
did the cave system under omega lab have magnetite?
or did they change that?
found a lot more nickel this time than I remember
The crystal caves song sounds like the portal soundtrack. Also lily pads is by far the best on the track
Glacial basin gives me this weird feeling, it works so well with the environment. Dry, sparse, foggy
The soundtrack was worth the wait omg I love it
ok, either I'm blind or the wiki is wrong
there is no magnetite in deep lilypad caves
if thats the area with the yellow/orange flowers
@trail socket I think the magnetite was under the ventgardens, but it has been a year since I played it, so I could be wrong
I love lily pads & twisty bridges tracks
That was uraninite
If I spelt that correctly
so erm... How do you activate that perimeter defense thing on the seatruck? I've got a feeling I need it
I assume you're on pc so press 2 and hold lmb to charge the defense and release to activate it
thanks, that worked, a bit slow, but it worked, sent it going the other way after the first nibble
np and yeah it charges a little slow but good thing you don't have to completely fill the charge, you can release at any time and still shock them
I just reflexively paused when it jumped the truck. Subnautica scares me more than any horror game 😛
hey, im just curious. but when is the game fully finished
May the 14 2021
well I think Subnautica is definitely most scary non-horror game... I like it 😄
Damn sea monkey stole my scanner, do I just have to make a new one? 😒
chase the sea monkey 😳
@split sluice you want to grab it away from the monkey before you lose track of it - the monkey will eventually bring it to one of the nearby nests I think
im finding uraninite but I've yet to see any magnetite 🤣
are you supposed to stumble into magnetite early? a lot of things seem to need it
oolooloolooloo
I was swimming back to the surface for oxygen when it robbed me, so I wound up drowning instead of chasing. 😬
that's what air bladders are for 🙂
also if you unselect your tool and have empty hands they cant steal anything and I think they wont even grab you
Air bladders take up precious inventory space though. 😐
Well it’s only one slot,
Are they re-usable?
yes
they refill once you get access to air
it's a speedy boost back up
and in an emergency you cna breathe the air in them
it has saved me many times
well seeing as how I just drowned again and lost the silver and sulfur stuff in my inventory I think I'll make one. 😐
in my experience drowning is not really much of a problem unless you play really carelessly
Careless is how I roll apparently
Im just about to start making my first base; is it okay to make it near the pod? Or is there a better place to make it
I made my first base right above the twisty bridges
Wait, we can charge the defense thing? It's not a one-click item?
assuming you will be building a scanner room, you want it to be covering as much of the bay as possible
I moved 300 meters to the south, makes it a bit more central.
Cheers!
yeah, something like that
Also is there a certain depth I can find table coral at? Ive been swimming around using the material scanner and cant find any
Need some to make the habitat builder
No, it's just "rarer" than in the first game. I think there are sparsely in twisty bridges.
Rarer in the sense that they don't come in big chunk anymore.
Ahh okay, cheers!
yeah, I believe you can find them as sort of wood mushroom things in twisty bridges
kind of hard to find early on, but there is a hidden stash that you can get pretty early 😉
it is after that I have some problem
been so long since I played through what was available that I forgot
I thought it there was some down deep below lillypads by the anemone thingies
Sweet one more scan and I'll have the sea truck unlocked 
Thanks, at least I know what they look like now 🙂
Do you move faster on land with your flippers off?
don't they retract themselves?
I'm trying to construct a foundation but it just gets to 50% and doesnt let me finish it, I have enough materials :/
Nvm I didnt have lead lmao, Im an idiot
Do you get materials back when you deconstruct?
dont the table corals look red
yes
yeah
Table Coral in the Twisty Bridges is orange. The Table Coral in the Lilypad Islands is green.
You can charge it for a larger AOE but ultimately not necessary
ooo
Where? I know there’s lots in random ore veins around phi and the icebergs but I’d like to know the ‘early’ stash
Hidden stash of what?
magnetite
I just went out and collected a lot of lithium and died, will the gathering points I used still be there, or will they be harvested?
yeah there are masses of it in a couple of non-arctic land spots
they will drop where you died.
Great if you were carrying a beacon too
I wasnt unfortunately 😦 Trying to find where I died atm, it aint looking good
I was circling the Delta Station for lithium, got a voiceline about the Vent Gardens, then died shortly after
lithium around purple vents is kinda common and also around the outside of delta island in general
I think I've picked clean the area around Delta, I remember seeing purple vents before Ill try there 🙂
Drop where I die? Great random caches of resources all over the place lol
you using a seaglide? what tank? rebreather?
Seaglide, first tank, no rebreather
I scanned all 3 parts for the seatruck though! When I die does my stuff float? If it sank Ill probably never find it lmao
seatruck parts are easier to find than mobile vehicle bay you need to make it
I think it sinks
make an air bladder though .... knife and air bladder are my first 2 items
I found all the mvb parts before the seatruck lol
nice
Oh I see, havent made any air bladders; are they reuseable?
Oh I thats cool, thought they were consumed on use thats why I never made any
You can do some useful spots early if you have a bladder to get back to air
Do you know what direction the purple vents are? Cant seem to find them, I thought they were near the kelp cave I found but they arent
use the delta wharf beacon you got given
Its thermal vents beside delta, not purple I thought?
is delta wharf a good rough area to build a person's first base? or meh?
then keep heading south east
yeah it is fine
Would you suggest another spot?
I liked spot at the southern edge of twisty bridges - its nice and safe there
I usually build my first base close to the pod but only to use the fabricator for a while .... Delta area is a good spot for a base ... it has thermal areas too for recharge and power
(next to the thermal vents)
Got it, thanks!
Thermal power sounds like a good idea
all the power sources are good, bio and nuclear also easy to keep running for different reasons
Now I just need the "Google Maps" upgrade for my sea truck to figure out where the hell I am. 😐
Use a compass and beacon locations to work that out
do they have anything like floaters in below zero?
floaters were godlike in subnautica so i wonder if they have arctic floater
guess I should make a compass then 😬
you can make an air bladder from a hoop fish
How about the scanner room?
scanner room is handy, I use it at least a couple of times in each playthorugh
can be used to scan for minerals I think?
if you get magnitite and put every upgrade as a range upgrade then even better
can u attach air bladder to another creature
yes
don't think so
have not tried
why?
The Sea Truck not being able to carry any cargo offends me as a truck owner. 😦
I put a shrub nut into an indoor growbed to grow some, do I need to water them or anything?
no, they will just grow
The large rooms are a godsend.
They really are
wait a room bigger than the multi-purpose? 😮
I might see if I can make a base just with a large multipurpose room, scanner room and control room
where does one find the large room to unlock?
marg base, outpost zero or robotics centre
outpost zero the easiest then robotics centre
can't miss em type story locations?
yes
I think in the full release version you will be directed to outpost zero early as it has stuff like a battery but currently you are only directed to it near the end of the story
what I really need is a storage trailer for the seatruck, I'm too much of a hoarder lol
there is a storage module for the seatruck ... I have 2 of them
also use a fabricator module .... you can build stuff to save space and then later in your base take it apart again using a recyclotron
just have to find them 😦
Deep twisty bridges
Hello community
if I start playing today will i keep the saves for the full release on may 15th?
Yep sry
That's the area right near the drop pod isn't it?
but its recommended to start a new save after update
cause it would break sometimes
No. This is because after story changes, old saves are inconpatible
The ending will be coming out which is in fact, a story change
^
Mmmh so if I want to play the full story I might as well wait for the full release
Yeqh
But make a creative save and do some base building
I got so caught up in base building in my survival that now I have a creative save just for base building with 80 hours
I kinda like to make creative and story content in the same save file, for a completionist habit
@split sluice you can attach modules to the sea truck to make sort of sea train 🙂
I have to find the modules first lol
at least some time ago I think there was no limit to how many modules can you add xD
and there were screens of truck with like 15 modules attached
attach so many that the sea truck becomes the sea slug lol
yeah, it starts to handle horribly with more than 3 or 4 modules
and the handling is not great to begin with, seamoth was way better
the max modules I use going somewhere is 2xstorage, 1xfab, 1xprawn
have a horsepower upgrade and 2 after burners
if going deep I sacrifice an after burner spot for depth
I am going to play with the teleport module also
I put some ribbon plants in an outdoor growbed; will more grow? Or do I need seeds or something
Crap lost my seatruck 😐
did it get destroyed
Do those squiddy faced chaps go after it if I'm off exploring away from it? The marker for it is just gone
Maybe you disabled the marker in the menu no?
Nope gone from the menu too
use a knife to take cuttings and plant the cuttings ... you can have endles plants
I didn't think things atatcked the seatruck while you are not in it
Didn't think so either:)
Got did dirty by some eye jellies a while back
the jellies won't damage your vehicles if you're not piloting it (the truck and modules anyway. prawn suit's a different story)
hmm i don't think they were attacking it
they were piling on it bc i left the lights on i think 😅
hmm I may have to think more about prawn parking in my new base near leviathans then ... I wasn't planning on making a moonpool

plan on it
i have a nosy neighbour (surprising considering it;s all eyeball) jelly hanging around my phi outpost
@fading needle another user says that the saves will be kept at the release date of 1.0 #below-zero-chat message
they will be kept
@fading needle told me that the saves will be incompatible =(#below-zero-chat message
how old is that second lets play thing?
old saves with the old storyline are not compatible ... new saves are compatible
I think they are referring to old saves as in saves from months ago
I have one of those old saves ... they are not even compatible now because the story already changed
Literally even the mods here say that if you can play on the save now you can play on it after 1.0
(some really old saves before story overhauls are ofc incompatible but they don't work rn anyways)
Better safe then sorry
the saves will be updated, obraxis said so himself and the message is pinned
Ok, so I'm safe to play now, sry for the mess i created 
so you can kill a cryptosuchus quite easily
all bark no bite those are
here's my favourite observation though - the Hivemind plant is imitating a crypto. look at the fin/web pattern of a crypto and notice how the hivemind has imitated the appearance
even the rippling colours are based on the crypto
I have finished the game
do you have a lava lamp?
the purple thing
yes
yes
did you get a message from ALan that you have found all important alien sites?
so you can build a teleporter?
you don't have to but it is something to do
there are 15 .... 10 needed for the teather tool
you don't have to get them but something to do
follow the link to see the full list
i have seen most of these
I think there are 2 of the one previewed
is there any other things to do
try to get all the cubes
Ion?
so the large multipurpose room has no self lighting?
oh it does it was turned off by default ... turned on in control room
yo what outcrop can give gold cuz gold is literally is the hardest thing to find
calaverite ... not that hard
for me it is
Its literally just knock off sandstone from the original game
what was that reaper roar i just heard
all of that titanium came out of a single outcrop
If you used the propulsion cannon trick, it will be fixed on release.
I'm surprised people are talking about it now when this bug was in the base game for ages.
So uhhh, there's no button to just level out the Seatruck, is there?
No.
wow 1 multipurpose room is more than enough for an entire base
Yep
Bioreactor, fabricator and interior growbed
I have a base where I have locked myself in
running off thermal so even more space, will add more water filtration machines, have 3 internal growbeds plus some wall plants
oh and an alien containment tank
thats a ||mercury||
do i cikc the spoiler text
if u dont care about spoilers
i have a seaglide
marg really did pick one of the best base locations
i bought below zero months ago and i dont have the soundtrack for free will i get it later or will i have to pay for it?
if i buy the game before the 14th may i miss important update ( like story part ?)
hey guys i'm a bit confused as to how to progress in the story
Hi there, i am trying to figure out where to request review keys for press. Can someone point me in the right direction?
or just confused as to what i should be looking for
i think you have to pay; but it might also be on spotify or something
i believe there are squid sharks if you go down deep enough
their social media will probably have more details
DM Donya.
no; the game will update when it is fully released
Thanks!
why spoil
they asked
how are u stuck
oh yea they did
bruh
where are you in story if u cant progress
once i visited the sea base with that person with the prawn i kinda just don't know what to do lol
ok thx but i don't need to start a new game for don't miss anything after the maj ?
after fixing radio tower
Check the pin.
that quest line doesnt actually progress story
ah
u gotta follow the alien stuff
you might need to start a new file yes
i would recommend waiting until the game is fully released
ok thx
thx u too
explore more to find the important alien sites
yeah thx ignis i see
Best creature
Or at least my fav
I also like titan holefish because they are derps
10 hours of gameplay till i got builder tool. Walked right by 2 of them
Yeah they’re unusually cute. Like parrots but floppy
I feed them if I have the aquarium module
sunset
did the full game get released?
Below Zero releases on all platforms (PC, Xbox, Playstation, Switch) on May 14th. The endgame will remain locked until that date.
okay
Interesting why they give soundtrack from subnautica for free (with game ofc), but the one from below zero is paid (even with game itself) 🤔
og soundtrack is on spotify, wonder if BZ is gonna be there too
I really am loving BZ, but I'm very disappointed to see that the floating base objects bug is still a thing
they feet just dont generate correctly if theres no room
thats not a bug that is the wall collisoon
Yeah, and it's a bug because it's not actually touching
the game gives problems when thigns directly intersect
thats why the psoters couldnt be taken off the partions
They do that on purpose
So it doesnt glitch through the wall etc
the only object that goes in a wall is the fabricator
Its intended...
it cant be fixed because of grabbing problems
its the same issue when you have a window on a base part. the full wall collsion is still there
so u cant go right up to the window. with one exception. the end corridor variant
Clearly not
Im not gonna explain game design rn
As you can see on the 2nd picture
Do penglings breed in the Alien Containment thing
Its clipping into the wall
IT'S SUPPOSED TO
Omfg
right but base connection points have different colloisions
It is supposed to clip so it looks like it's affixed to the wall
Then why do they bother making a texture for it if you are never gonna see it?
In case you place it like this
well that was originally when they allowed you to have obecjts on windows. but you cant, normally. you have to first place a wall locker than window. if you have window first, it blocks it because of the collision issues
But you can clearly see its clipping through in a rough way and not an intended way
Still better than it floating off the wall
Doesnt mean its not intended
let me explain this better
And sometimes making it float makes development easier
This is what you want. this works fine on non connection points.
this floats because this is a base connection point
Or, they can just un-bugger the goddamn collisions on the base sections
they cant that is a problem
if collisions intersect on these parts. the game rejects other inputs
You know that game design is a really hard thing to do?
i jsut said why
I mean, by your logic, it should
i said this is a game engine limitation
Because it's here
just be glad it isn't call of duty and call it a day
Side wall mounted stuff is a bit odd
The hell did you even manage that?
stuff does not mount well in large room doorways
@sly wren but in that picture it IS floating a little
Um... no?
corridor end points extend past the wall limit. so collision is not a problem. its when you have a flush placement area like the windows they cant do it
Um... yes?
thats why i siad the end corridor windows work as they should
I swear, this is giving me a migrane...
Oh wait im wrong about the last part
we are expaining why
Then you can give the feedback to unkown worlds
The side touches the wall ... not the back though
actually im wrong now. the end windows where updated. you can no longer go into them. probably to deal with a collision issue
Well im done arguing cause this is going nowhere
yep all collisions where udpated
Hope you can explain it better than me @frozen dew
jesus the crystal caves are actually horrifying
thats cool bro, i played the game its got neat fish in it and you can make bases to keep lockers in. that are full of stuff you need to make other stuff. and when they are empty you can get rid of them.
But also gorgeous
yeah ikr
So I'm not allowed to want a bug fixed?
glad i didn't bring my sea truck all the way down tho
trees forest kinda thing here
actually this issue is there to fix other issues
game engine is full of things being constantly upgraded so that affects the actual game. other games based on unity exhibit the same issues currently
If this was just some shovelware unity asset flip I wouldn't give a rats CENSORED FOR YAGPDB.XYZ
But it's a quality game
ill show u an example of things that dont make sense but are done to avoid other problems
i cant place this. why theres a posters on the wall
the posters constatntly got stuck on the wall because the collider that let you grab was a problem
how good is the torpedo arm at killing leviathans?
so they reworked various things to fix it
torps are defense only drill arm is what kills
COD wont fix glaring holes in its engine because, cheats help generate them cash... hence my earlier statement... this is far more acceptable and these guys are refining the game as they go, not perfect but pretty darn good.
the large room in general also has lots of bugs
this is a coding problem not a palcement problem
Top is OG, bottom is updated, Green is an expanded collision model for the rooms, red is the items placed on the wall
again coding problem due to engine limitations
should i use vortex or gas torpedos?
Take away some of the wall item depth, and tighten up the interiors to match the areas that need to be different because of the limitations
vortex are fun, but i seldom make torps anymore. just in the original game because the ai sometimes is over agro.
its why the rear window on the seatruck was removed. even if you have a top of the line computer. fully rendering two locations in the game world at the same time. reduces the engines preformance
altho the backup camera was cool
WHAT
it was cool
I'm not even talking about rendering locations...
These are completely different issues
im talking about engine limitations
now i have to drive straight up to the modules and turn around to connect
unity has limitations but it is being improved quite a bit, tarkov and Subnautica had same issues at same time, stutters and frame rate bogging down it was memory management then, etc... etc...
lmao this still hasnt been fixed lol
i guess placable objects get ignored by the build system
I mean, yeah, they're world items
I suppose the best solution would be to turn placables into things you scan for blueprints
might be a seam or the object construction rules, kinda like placing mutipurpose rooms and such only orient certain directions.
i get plants clipping through the floors on some bases i build.
but the memory management would chug like hell if it was that granular, you might not get the game on a switch ever if that were the case
the end-game in SN is scarier to me, tbh
So i happened to stumble upon some sort of precursor power generator while exploring and found an ion cube on the floor. After picking it up tho, the voiceline says something about a call, even though it has never happened before. It appears to me that I went into an area intended for a later stage of the game. Did I miss anything and is it still playable? Regarding spoilers, my current progression is at the Delta Station part
you shouldn't
the goal is to find all these sorts of locations, and the game will drip feed them to you if you haven't found enough. finding them on your own is just as legit
Wait, where's that poster from?
It fed me a part of the story which hasn’t happened yet
Story events are supposed to happen at certain points of the game(such as reaching a certain location)
this cant be healthy
yeah it's not
do I need to run around and try to find one of those uselss glass containers?
no, you only need one
there's a map that shows you the area where it's hidden
a PDA tells you where it is though ... listen to the PDAs you got
yeah and a map
I have to go thru this to find where I can get a glass container? ;-;
there's a map that has the area where it's hidden marked in phi
I now feel like a total d head protecting myself
it that a baby one?
hm. not sure then. because i know the story unlocks as you find X number of artifacts, i'm not sure what happened to you
a friendly way is to use the PRAWN propulsion gun to place the parents where they can't get down again
wtf man
yes the early access version will be updated with the ending on launch
oh no once the game fully comes out we have to pay 25 more for the full game ofc
no you don't
ofc we do smh
Some website says that the average playtime is 50h to finish the game, is that true ?
idk im around 18hrs and Im guessing im around mid to late
50hrs is prob 100% the game yknow
Not sure if it has a name, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcSgic_08vc&list=PLqh38qy608KiSE7cq1TM-bOen43L-Ggrl&index=10
Ok thnx
yep. You could do it quicker using the wiki etc. I doubt a first time player could find everything in the game at 50 hours without help
what does snow stalker fur do?
it should
you can use it to make a cold suit
ah
cuz It says I have to pay
Ok thnx
even though I have the game
is cold suit used for anything else like a max suit?
nope
I remember there being the max suit in sub 1 which gave u water and protection
so fur is useless for me then
the coldsuit is useful for sure ... all the suits are unless you are playing freedom mode
I just hold warm food on me
Spicy fruit salad and the bountifull spicy peppers around the place are good enough for me
ok so I did the antidote stuff am I done with this island?
Can we get rotatable foundations? I would like to have that
u just need to place down the first one the way you want to face
the moonpool can be rotated now
buetifull
how to get hunter fur
pengling spy drone, or just pick it up from their lairs
if you're new to subnautica, easily 50 hours. if you're a vet, half that
ayyy I got for both my seatruck and prawn suit and all my tools Ion power cells
dam how important is that drone
and with my charge fins my tools will never run out
it's used for 2 critical things, but otherwise just finding random resources
oh and selfies. selfies are critical.
Do you mean the spy penglin?
yea
What does this do? whenever I change the colors nothing seems to change
outside only
Well that’s cool Ig, thnx
gotta make sure to hit apply
I wanted to buy the game but I didn’t know which one to chose, the first one or BZ
finish subnautica first
To get fur from snow stalkers (can find it on ground but 1000% more difficult) and also for something in Sam's story: ||grabbing the antidote||
then bz
and if ur new with both of em without cheating or wiki its a free 70hrs+ of entertainment
u should play sub 1 first ofc
I got the first one for free on PS but I don’t have a PlayStation so I didn’t want to buy it twice and BZ price will be 25% higher at launch
BZ is a sequel to sub so get sub first. Also sub is much bigger than BZ
I don't think it'll still increase in price since it already did a while ago
But I heard that BZ is a different story than the first one
yeahy
all sequal games have a dif story but have stuff from last game too
Yes, it happens like 5 years after sub 1
no sequal game will have the same story as thats the same game
So there's definite references to sub 1
a bit of world building will fly over ur head if u havent played sub 1
Is it really necessary to play to the first one first ?
Depends how much you like lore
its not a must but bz will go from a 10 to a 8 if u ahvent played 1
They said that the game price will increase at launch by 25%
Also imo sub 1 is better
for bz not sub 1
the price has already increased to the final price on jan 5th
imo BZ
bz
but sub 1 has better game imo
both of em are just huge and well made games and u should play both of em
1 focuses on game 1 focuses on story
Well, Ima try to play the first one on Geforce Now and buy BZ
each has new and cool stuff
I am looking more for a story game atm (because I alrdy got other games to play as well), so I may start with BZ then the first one when I finish the other games I got
Does someone know a fix for some parts of the world not loading? And the bottom of the ocean can be dived through?
sub 1 still has a good and big story but bz is more fleshed out
And it’s the story and characters that attracted me to Sub BZ
and if u wana get the full story u need to play sub 1 before bz
np
Does someone know?
never had this problem
the games pretty bad at loading stuff if ur going extremely fast like ghost freecam or some bug
It like doesnt load at all
Or well, most of the world does
But some places doesnt
And I can just swim through all the sand and go under the world
that has never happened to me
slow hard drives will cause the world to fail to load. if you teleport around the map
where is the last piece of the architect
||crystal caverns, arctic spires, deep lilypads||
i remembered the last place lel
you can get the high capacity o2 tank, right? like that is in the game? Ive been waiting to find it forever so I can make the ultra high capacity tank and just cant find it.
Okay, I got the part where you can't remember
yes. search monkey nests
So the sea truck: Sometimes when I stop driving I get straight out and start swimming, sometimes I just get off the controls and walk around inside. What am I doing differently to determine which I do?
hey what do I use the snow fox for?
where's a good place to find Magnetite? I'm swimming down from crazy sword arm mech lady's base but not seeing much for it
yo guys how do i actually open the doors to the alien facilities?
i would try checking out one of the giant icebergs that have a hallow inside
when there are modules attached you get up and walk. no modules = instant get out
on land? or underwater?
underwater
don't think I've seen those yet
or both
you have to get alan first
btw where do i find him?
should have found him early
if you explored the starting area you would have noticed some clues
follow the sos signal in the bridges until you find a small alien base then go in
yeah you were kinda supposed to have found him really soon after you started
ah
was prob cause i was focusing on getting vehicles first
I found the clue getting parts for the truck
my best advice to anyone is do not rush
so easy to miss things
yeah i have a base near the clues i believe
just never bothered to continue cause i didn't wanna drown
did you find the rebreather and so on?
ye
with that and an O2 tank upgrade its easy
and the area got plenty of O2 plants
I think you can actually see the clue from one of the sites with some altera tech
ye
Why don't I get the backup camera?
anyone know if each part of the cold suit add some protection or do you need the full suit?
it was cut
hehe, yeah I miss it as well
its not to bad when you get used to it
you can always move the segments by hand
No for like sharp corners and hard manuevering
oh
never had issues with that tbh
guess if you make it very long it can be a challenge
I rarely use more than one storage module and the prawn suit dock
just to slow with more modules even with the hp upgrade
Is the story for Below Zero done rn?
only the ending is not in the game
14 may
dope
Yeah I've played it up to the point of the ending
same
A
wow this brings me back the reason i havent played the first subnautica is because i watched the entire markiplier playthrough
It's ashame all of the "artist - topic" videos on youtube have comments turned off by default now. I was interested in seeing the comments for BZ's OST
yes!!!
and messaging system was got rid of a while back so no way to ask the channels
Ok
is there a way to reset achievements for Below Zero?
You've be able to play it for years now
This is probably just a coincidence but these two songs basically say "Ten thousand souls in search of familiar harmonies"
Pre-ordered for console
Imagine
Yes pre ordered for console
I am assuming Ten Thousand Souls is the ending theme, and I know In Search of Familiar Harmonies is the credits theme
So this could be something about like thousands of Architects who survived the Kharaa being scattered around the galaxy searching for other Architects
Just a theory I had
sea monkeys are amazing D:
they bring you resources and if you pin a blueprint you can manipulate what they bring you. I pinned the scanner room hud upgrade and the only resource on it is magnetite. I have yet to find any magnetite but the monkeys are gladly giving it to me now
that’s after you get ||al-an||
whats the furthest in the story you can go right now
i dont really know if i have hit it yet
Right to the end
i found margrets greenhouse
The endgame isn’t in
Sorry mistyped
You’ve got a lot farther.
You need to make ||al-an|| a body to finish story (atm that’s as far as you can go)
oh shoot lol
i have the skeleton and thats it
im stuck rn and dont know where to go
answer is usually explore
no clue, still playing through for the first time
ah ok
bunch of stuff just popping up as I explore
games given you all the hints for you to find all locations
if u have than ud know where to make the body parts
i dont kave nickel yet but i dont have a need for it so far
well i thought i expplored all the crystal caves lol maybe i missed something
The one in the lilypads
Oh a message got deleted
yeah i saw that
Strange
i use all da cap
because i was doing leviathan rodeo
chelicerate is my favorite vehicle
if you have ps+ it has a pre order discount
ima get it on switch
also has a pre order discount on switch
Eshop preorder
no like extra subscription?
don't think so
bruh when i wanted to play this game when it got officialy released i was appaled to discover that i spawned in the middle of nowhere, 314 metres deep and had all my buildings,mods and inventory items (including the diving suit) stripped away. Why is that???
What
to include context, the last time i saved my game i was in twisty bridges building a base
When was that
before it got released
It hasn’t been released
it hasnt????
It comes out of Early Access in 13 days
lol what was i thinking XD
thx, but still
I’m assuming you were using mods since you said you had mods
lmao
Then there is probably your issue
will below zero be on gog at release ?
