below-zero-chat

[inland vapor]

and the ironic thing is that i bred these to pester a chelicerate that hovers below my base

[idle basin]

Shoot him at the leviathans, use the tears for hydration

[shell patio]

Make a base with an alien containment and breed them. Create a crustacean station

[rigid forum]

I love just created a bunch of emotes for personal use wooo

[livid oar]

bro I am going to drown if I even try to go to the surface

[inland vapor]

that's the plan, i'm going to make a literal side hub

debating if i should tie it with my base

[rigid forum]

not at delta

[pure forge]

I'm pretty sure there's one at delta

[idle basin]

I think there's one on a box infront of the bases

[pure forge]

If you've got a mineral detector you can try to use that to help

[rigid forum]

yea

[idle basin]

Highlight interactable might help

[pure forge]

That too

I need to remember to turn that on at some point, I've missed a ton of pdas I think

I legit found one right next to my seatruck on my third trip back to it to unload stuff

[carmine bobcat]

this game is so beatiful

[rigid forum]

and not scary

[weak saddle]

There is one in a tiny prebuilt base in twisty bridges

[rigid forum]

it has the window scannable in it

and no air

[weak saddle]

Ye

[carmine bobcat]

why did my emoji get deleted

[frank moon]

||Is there a reason Maida’s base is so dirty or is it solely because she is lazy? ||

[weak saddle]

The inside or outside?

[frank moon]

Both

[rigid forum]

yea she just dont care

[weak saddle]

Outside is just because it's like algae that has built up over a long time. Inside I think it's just because she doesn't care and is kinda sloppy

[frank moon]

Ye prob

[rigid forum]

dead chat xd ha ha funny

[dense marten]

i hate myself oh my god

[misty lance]

Maybe cleaning products are hard to find on the planet

[idle basin]

h a h a f u n n y

[misty lance]

Also she lives a few hundred meters underwater

[rigid forum]

350 meters

[placid furnace]

I mean if she doesn't care about the inside (which she clearly doesn't) why would she care about the outside

[modern steeple]

so you guys sure there's no way to dodge ice worms in snowfox?

[misty lance]

Other than the upgrade thingy i don't think so

[idle basin]

Just get a prawn suit and carry the snowfox in the back as you abuse a bug to diagonally hop at excessive speed

[dense marten]

i brought all the parts for ||architect parts|| but not the reinforced fabric or whatev its called with the ruby and ribbon plant. I have the ruby and ribbon plant in my seatruck. I forgot to make the fabric. I am currently 950 meters deep with my seatruck at 15% power. God.

[idle basin]

rip

[dense marten]

also jettisoned the fabricator module up above because navigating caves with 2 modules is a PAIN

it's literally up at the lilypad islands

where|| marge's first signal|| is

[idle basin]

Got any spare power cells to conveniently swap out

[dense marten]

ok lemme elaborate

i got a power cell and an ion power cell in my seatruck, at 15% power

and i also have a spare power cell at 22% in storage

but i used like 30% just GETTING there

[pure forge]

Better use less getting back then

[dense marten]

because

yeah ngl i was kinda triggerhappy on afterburner

PDS costs nothing :wheeze:

[main burrow]

My prawn suit gained Jesus powers

[pure forge]

Does afterburner use extra energy? I’ve had two ions in my seatruck since I got it so it must not be a huge amount if it does

[dense marten]

Eh

2 power p sure

[pure forge]

2 power or 2% of total power

[idle basin]

I'm pretty sure the description says "at the expense of a bit of power" or something so I'd guess so

[dense marten]

2% with 2 normal power cells

[dense marten]

roughly ~0.5% with a normal + ion

god, they need to NERF the perimeter defense system

[dim sequoia]

Jesus is that you?

[idle basin]

o h, w e l l t h e n

[pure forge]

Wiki says it’s 6 units of power, so I guess it’s not much

[dense marten]

not with 2 ions

[pure forge]

About 0.25% of total with two ions

[dense marten]

ye

[pure forge]

Not 6%, 6 units

[dense marten]

i'm aware

[pure forge]

Oh I thought you were saying it’s not 6%

[dense marten]

oh yeah

[pure forge]

I see what you meant now

[dense marten]

was referring to "guess its not much" xD

[pure forge]

Yeah, took me a second

[dense marten]

anyways, anyone wanna brainstorm nerfs to the PDS with me

imo make it require a kyanite + fully charged up to negate a leviathan attack

there is literally no reason to charge it up rn

waste of power

[idle basin]

It is kinda op

[dense marten]

extremely*

[idle basin]

I only use a prawn suit because mech exosuits are cooler than trucks so I don't use the PDS much

[pure forge]

Was pds in the original also this good? I vaguely remember it doing about the same thing for reapers

[clever panther]

what are the best seatruck modules

[pure forge]

Storage, fabricator, and docking in that order in my opinion

[dense marten]

||Shadow leviathan/shelly|| attacks deal like 5% hull and pretty much 1 unit of energy

[rigid forum]

when I first saw the symbiotes in the game I freaked out

[idle basin]

So did I

[dense marten]

haha thats what i use

ahh refresh my memory what a symbiote is

[clever panther]

cant you only have 2 others on at once?

[rigid forum]

I thought it was going to posses me cuz it was so small

[dense marten]

no, you just get slower

[pure forge]

I like sleeper if I’m doing above water stuff, it’s nice to not have to go out in the dark

[idle basin]

I also remember being so terrified of a distant brute shark that I somehow inflated it in my mind and thought it was a leviathan in the early game

[clever panther]

oh ok

[pure forge]

The most I’ve done at once is six

[dim sequoia]

And great I dunno what that is but all I got was spiderman

[dense marten]

whassa symbiote :_;

[rigid forum]

the little red fish

[dense marten]

i remember but dont

[dim sequoia]

OH those

[idle basin]

Symbiote = smol fish that sometimes does like 2 damage to you

[dim sequoia]

OHHH I remember now

[dense marten]

i literally do not remember that

[rigid forum]

it's a little fish in the game and venom is a symbiote the villain from the movie venom who posses a person like a virus

[dim sequoia]

Lol mb, I have bad memory

[pure forge]

It’s the only fish that can say no when you try to grab it

[idle basin]

The little thing that you see around the same time as the first titan holefish

[dense marten]

OH

ye titan holefish now i remember

i literally haven't seen a titan holefish like since the beginning

[rigid forum]

I thought of venom and then I was like, dont use me as your vessel

[dense marten]

anyways, you guys think this would be a good nerf?

[idle basin]

I remember getting attacked by it before seeing what it was called and then I promptly ran back to the pod as fast as I could

[dense marten]

also replace the free module in marge's shack with an afterburner

[clever panther]

I somehow just used the seatruck defense perimeter thing on myself

[dense marten]

lul

[idle basin]

I have way more kyanite than I will ever need in storage so I could put that to use

[rigid forum]

[clever panther]

idk

[rigid forum]

how does this happen

[dense marten]

actually makes it so that you have to explore the CC so chellys are a threat + shadows (temporarily)

[clever panther]

I DID IT AGAIN

[nimble canopy]

Question: will a docked prawnsuit take pressure damage if your seatruck goes past the prawns depth?

[olive coral]

Finally got my storage sorted out

[main burrow]

Nice

[rigid forum]

[rigid forum]

glowing holly water storage

[somber hearth]

i played this game for 8-9 hours today got soooo much done its scary asf

[rigid forum]

the game is a little to small and not as scary as the last one but it's still fun

[clever panther]

where are spiral plants

[somber hearth]

i think its scarier then the first one yeah its pretty small

[rigid forum]

vent garden

[main burrow]

I feel your pain

[rigid forum]

vent garden has spiral plants

[olive coral]

I never went to a vent garden but I have a full growbed of spiral plants

[languid plover]

i mean

[somber hearth]

the void is what rlly terrifies me

[languid plover]

there are ones by the deep purple vents

[languid plover]

yeah, the void is scary

[rigid forum]

well there in deep purple vents too but hard to find

[olive coral]

By one of the /spoiler mercury 2 wrecks

[rigid forum]

the void from this first game scared me so much that if I cat sees the sea floor I freak out

[livid nymph]

Do I absolutely need the prawn suit for the arctic spires

[somber hearth]

factual

[languid plover]

but i oddly like how the void feels, it looks like earths oceans with the lighting and color of the water

[rigid forum]

yea

[somber hearth]

im just happy its fully out

[rigid forum]

definitely

[devout iris]

Devs did a great job with making the void feel as terrifying as it is

[languid plover]

yeah, but the real horror is the creatures that live there

[devout iris]

Thanks to the void of S1 I was terrified even in the safe shallows

[rigid forum]

I played it the second it came out , then my whole towns power went out so I had to wait a few minutes

[somber hearth]

yeah they made it way more terrifying then the first

[devout iris]

Subnautica cured my thassalophobia

[languid plover]

wait, do you think the ghost leviathans and the void big shrimp go to and from each crator?

[rigid forum]

I can see how that works

[somber hearth]

hol up

[olive coral]

This game is just so good looking

[weak saddle]

/Spoiler failure 😔

[languid plover]

wait what if they eat eachother and thats how they get foods

[somber hearth]

factual

[somber hearth]

but the eat the microscopic stuff lol

[devout iris]

hmmst've

[languid plover]

i know the ghost leviathan does

but the big void shrimps!

[somber hearth]

factual

[rigid forum]

ghost eat shrimp and shrimp eat ghost

[fervent stag]

where do i get the module to use the tower

[olive coral]

places

[languid plover]

wait, but you can see ghost leviathans eating the bone eels in the river of goo

what is the truth

[somber hearth]

today i was going to where the ice worm is think idk what the biome called but i was terrified

[rigid forum]

there is no truth

[languid plover]

so they can kinda eat both i guess

[rigid forum]

probably

I feel like the ghost leviathans just eat everything

[languid plover]

their mouth can extend

so its makes sence they wouldn't be picky eaters

[rigid forum]

like that one shark?

[languid plover]

the one that shall not be named*

[fervent stag]

thank you

[languid plover]

those things is the reason i will not explore certain places

[fervent stag]

i can’t find the additional rooms for the sea truck 😭

[languid plover]

like the bottom of the lily pad islands or the deep twist bridges

[devout iris]

with the ||prawn suit|| you can easily outrun them, just ||jump and go forward and you move fast enough to outrun the worms||

oh, it's called something something ||spires|| I think

[somber hearth]

ik but i didnt hv a prawn suit yet

[weak saddle]

|| arctic spires ||

[devout iris]

ye this

[weak saddle]

If I were you I would get || prawn with drill, grapple, and jump boost before exploring that region ||

[shrewd scaffold]

Hey @rigid forum I think I now the reason behind get the antidote recipie. And its more simple and dissapointing I would like...

[rigid forum]

oh?

[round sonnet]

Btw, Below Zero's VR support with the mod is better than the original game's VR right now. Has a lot of nice features like motion controls, snap turning (if you get motion sick), adjustable PDA distance, etc.

https://youtu.be/xD8KaLNy0ZE?t=201

[weak saddle]

I always thought it gave you that recipe so you could craft it again if you lost and or died

[shrewd scaffold]

The area where you get the antidote is filled with stalkers, right?

What if you die and lose some items like... The antidote for example?

[shrewd scaffold]

Yep

[candid junco]

btw does the game provide hints on ||where to build the alien body or do we need to scour the map looking for the facility?||

[candid junco]

you get a recipe for building the antidote on pickup

[rigid forum]

that is very disappointing

[shrewd scaffold]

Got really dissapointed when I realized about it... Because I dont die often

So I didnt thought about it

[rigid forum]

everything has a purpose, even if it's not too big of a purpose

[shrewd scaffold]

Yeah

I dont remember last time I died playing a subnautica

[rigid forum]

I think that time i died i drowned on purpose

[crude agate]

Guys can i get disinfected water in sub below zero?

make*

[rigid forum]

create a water disinfecter or whatever it is

[acoustic juniper]

Hi

[rigid forum]

hiya

or hey man or something like that

[shrewd scaffold]

Besides get drowned the more dangerous thing under water I found is those chelicerates

And those are easy to fight with the zapper thing

[rigid forum]

the shrimp >:( they're so annoying

[carmine bobcat]

hey who know this place where ?

[rigid forum]

for the whole game I only had depth modules until I died in the caves by a levi

[rigid forum]

glacial spires or basin

I think

[carmine bobcat]

why I play 20 hours but still can't follow the plot

[rigid forum]

its hard to figure out how to complete the story

[weak saddle]

I think that is around outpost zero

[candid junco]

it's mostly just going to every outpost on the map you find early on

[shrewd scaffold]

When I got the zapper module in marguerite's base underwater levis turned easy

[rigid forum]

yea but I suck at finding stuff from maps

[candid junco]

doesn't really have enough hints for the || two areas needed for the alien body through||

[shrewd scaffold]

Did that and it worked

[full pond]

I cannot scan the artifact in the volcano's mouth.

[rigid forum]

I also have this map

[candid junco]

that or i just missed a few important pda files

[carmine bobcat]

Does anyone know whose youtube channel guides the story?

[rigid forum]

all of them

[vapid kestrel]

I continue to not understand why people keep sending this outdated map

[rigid forum]

because it works

[wooden atlas]

Does ||alan point you to more than one alien artifact or is only the first one free?||

[rigid forum]

2 of them are free 3rd one is hidden

[candid junco]

Also related to that || is their any hints whatsoever for the location of the facility to craft his body ||

[rigid forum]

hardly

[wooden atlas]

Ah hm is the ||recyclotron|| the second free one?

[candid junco]

the ||recyclotron|| is free i think

[rigid forum]

finding artifacts Is only for blueprints finding body parts is the main goal

dead chat

[languid plover]

is the hover zone a real thing or...

[rigid forum]

it is but not called hover zone anymore

[ashen sonnet]

do cooked fish last longer ||in the bioreactor||?

[rigid forum]

nah man I doesn't matter

[stoic zephyr]

is there any way to heal without using medkits? Like sleeping or something?

[languid plover]

what is it called?

[rigid forum]

also bioreactor isnt a spoil

[rigid forum]

idk man , no one told me

[rigid forum]

nah

[stoic zephyr]

jeez

man not even sleeping? that's a big oof there

[rigid forum]

mmhm

well there is one way

[next current]

The Hoverzone is the Glacial Basin.

Hoverzone 2 is the Arctic Spires.

Hoverzone 3 is cut.

[ashen sonnet]

there's those pod plants, I feel like that's earlier enough not to be a spoiler

[stone lichen]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[next current]

I know, I'm sad too. It was pretty much finished.

[stoic zephyr]

Pod plants? Haven't come across them yet

Still pretty early in the story cause I only advance story progress with my friend

[next current]

Shrub Nuts?

Shrub Nuts are the fruit found on the Delta Island btw.

[stoic zephyr]

oooooh those things?

I'm playing on freedom so I figured they were just food

[rigid forum]

theres also another way

just die

[stoic zephyr]

uh

but that's lost progress and stuff isn't it?

[rigid forum]

not unless you put your stuff in a locker

[ashen sonnet]

ah sorry, yeah they are nuts, not pods 😅

[rigid forum]

cause you lose a liitle bit of stuff when ya die and that's it

[next current]

Yeah, Shrub Nuts are one of the only good farmables in freedom.

[inland vapor]

so uh. ||I finished construction of Al-An's body. Isn't the prompt to transfer him into the body supposed to come up?||

[next current]

It gives +10 HP

[stoic zephyr]

awesome, thanks for that

[lost verge]

Is there any medical kit fabricators in below zero

[stoic zephyr]

I'll go harvest some now then

[next current]

No, cut.

[stoic zephyr]

oof

[rigid forum]

||if ya stand in front if his body them yes||

[stoic zephyr]

rip medkit fabricator

[next current]

It's already really easy to fabricate medkits anyways.

[stoic zephyr]

sure, but I'm lazy

[inland vapor]

||i'm not getting that prompt.||

[rigid forum]

save and reload then

[next current]

Laziness will not get you a lot of places, my friend. But it's fine I guess.

[lost verge]

Im not lazy im just on land

[rigid forum]

well then how did I get here huh?

[next current]

I dunno.

By not being lazy?

[lost verge]

I need medkits so I can heal when I get attacked by ||ice worm|| and snow stalkers

[rigid forum]

well I guess I am a teenager but i still can't swim so i guess i didnt get far

[candid junco]

|| can i get some pointers for where the fabrication facility is? Already cured the kharra but still stuck on finding where to fabricate his body ||

[inland vapor]

||You need to go deep within the Crystal Caves into the Red Crystal Caves. Shadow Leviathans swarm the area. Be careful.||

[next current]

||Fabricator Caverns, 950 meters below the surface.||

[rigid forum]

theres only 1 shadow levi deep down near the ||fabricator base||

[next current]

||It's built into a large clump of crystals.||

[pearl grove]

I genuinely believe that the baby sea monkey is the cutest fauna in the game

[rigid forum]

agreed

it should've took place of the trivavle

look at this guy

[stone lichen]

[pearl grove]

I think Im gonna have an aquarium filled with them

[rigid forum]

dont they turn into an old one or a regular one

[inland vapor]

i just swung over an attacking ||Shadow Leviathan|| like a boss

[pearl grove]

baby sea monkeys and penglings are the best

[carmine bobcat]

There’s two near the base, one near the entrance to the cave that leads to the base

[pearl grove]

I assume not cause the adults are too big to fit in the aquarium

[rigid forum]

oh , koool man

[pearl grove]

ill test it out now actually

[magic frost]

Are you able to transfer crap from the aquarium to alien containment later

[rigid forum]

yea

[carmine bobcat]

I would assume yes

[magic frost]

I like the sea monkey behavioral change after Alan

[rigid forum]

birds keep chirping in the middle of the night and it makes me think its later than it's in and it makes me angry

[rigid forum]

who doesn't?

[magic frost]

getting 3 diamonds right when I needed them was sure a switch

I still have yet to find the particularly deep area in twisty bridges I was looking for where some of those were found

[pearl grove]

so I tested it out and the baby doesnt actually age if its in your inventory or in the aquarium

[rigid forum]

awsome dude

[pearl grove]

gonna mix those babies with penglings in a nice aquarium

[rigid forum]

I have a pengling and baby sea monkey in my inventory

the pengling I named al an 2
and the monkey is issac

Issac is a cute name, negl.

wrong reply, but same person. Strange.

I tend to do that a lot, don't I?

[rigid forum]

Idk , do you?

[next current]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[paper wyvern]

Yo do sea monkeys not grab stuff anymore? I've tried to get them to and they're refusing to take anything of mine. They're only giving me things.

[magic frost]

not after the dive that gave you that new occupant

[paper wyvern]

Really?

My brain home boy?

[magic frost]

right

that was, essentially the light switch on their behavior

[paper wyvern]

Is there some big reason why or is that just the way it is?

If there is a big reason I'll figure out later, don't tell me what it is.

[magic frost]

Also ||go in to your inventory, to your blueprints. Find one you are lacking something for (like gold or diamonds), pin it by left clicking. Then, there is a higher chance of getting those things.||

[paper wyvern]

Uhhh

[magic frost]

not sure, not that far yet

[paper wyvern]

Idk if I want to click that

[magic frost]

left click reveals the text

[paper wyvern]

I'm saying idk if I want to or not

[magic frost]

It's specific to the what they give you

[north token]

did anything get added in the full release

[magic frost]

ie how to change it from totally random

[paper wyvern]

OH

Yeah I figured that out about an hour ago

It's how I get lead, because I hate searching for galena outcroppings.

And I can't find any other way to get it.

[magic frost]

it helped me in getting a few diamonds

[paper wyvern]

Diamonds are easy. Go to a the thermal vents biome and go in some caves. EZ.

[magic frost]

Now I need to figure out where magnetite is

[paper wyvern]

I can tell you if you'd like.

I just found some

[magic frost]

I mean I played 150 hrs of this a year ago. Just replaying now that it's released

so yeah np

I played with the old story

[paper wyvern]

Yeah same

Idk which one I like more so far.

[river dust]

Anyone else noticed that when you die on land the stuff you drop sinks into the ground and becomes unretreivable?

[paper wyvern]

I can't decide.

I have not noticed that, no.

[magic frost]

Well honestly? I think the opening for the old one was smoother

less drop you on your head, find the pod

[inland vapor]

I just finished the game. ||Holy crap that ENDING..||

[simple viper]

Yeah ending is awesome

[paper wyvern]

Alright I'll get out of here before the ending is spoiled for me.

Have a good day/night yall.

[magic frost]

I liked the end to the first game

[paper wyvern]

^^^^^^

[magic frost]

haven't seen this one

they aren't going to spoil it in open chat

[simple viper]

You want to see it. Trust me

[coarse crypt]

Ending is

[magic frost]

Miner .. I think when I quit back then .. I was in some area that had the first shadow leviathans in it

[inland vapor]

||I knew we'd be going to Al-An's home but... WOW. Compromising a chunk of freedom for this story has been amazing.||

[magic frost]

just can't recall where it was

[simple viper]

||I mean I don’t think they there yet||

Idk either lol

But you’re definitely going to see a few leviathans

[inland vapor]

||I actually cannot wait for the next story after this. But it will be awkward since wer'e not on 4546b.||

[magic frost]

yeah .. I'm no fan of the chelicerate in the vents atm

[simple viper]

Oh I’m not talking about them

[magic frost]

I know. There are worse things

[inland vapor]

I wonder if there's actually any more for me to do from here besides making the best base.

[simple viper]

You could play the ending again? lol

[inland vapor]

heh

||It was also a complete shock to learn that Al-An was the head of the research division in the Lost River facility||

[wooden atlas]

Are the wonky ladder placements and moonpool base orientation shenanigans the same problem in bz as before?

[magic frost]

so I can't make the initial depth upgrade for the truck with the mod station, I have to get the fab attachement..

[inland vapor]

yeah they allocated upgrades weird this game

[simple viper]

No you shouldn’t need to

[broken coral]

Wtf am I supposed to do with a signal??

[magic frost]

well I can't see any way of doing it

[simple viper]

You should be able to make it with the normal fabricator

[next current]

The MK 1 can be made in the fabricator.

[simple viper]

Which is exactly the one that’s in the fabricator module

There is no difference between the two afaik

[inland vapor]

all that's really left for me is to 100% the PDA right?

[magic frost]

I don't see it on a base fab

[next current]

Fabricators placed in bases can make almost all vehicle upgrades besides the MK2 and MK 3 for the Seatruck and MK2 for the P.R.A.W.N.

I... didn't like this change very much.

[magic frost]

going to reload

[simple viper]

Should be the lowest icon you can press

[livid oar]

How do I use the spoiler tag thing

[simple viper]

You put || in front and after your message

[magic frost]

select a block of text, above the chat bar it should show a symbol like an eye in a box

Or just click mark as spoiler from the context menu lol

[open flume]

Is a next game after bz confirmed or not btw

am curious

[livid oar]

|| test ||

[inland vapor]

i remember reading they want to look into a multiplayer game next

[livid oar]

|| what an ending it was amazing that architect homeworld is sick ||

Tbh I actually liked that.

[open flume]

its fine but its just not as grand as the first game

u dont really have the shock value of seeing a reaper's tail below you just swooshin around

[magic frost]

There are some places I didn't like as much, and some places (or similar ones) to the original .. like the Lost River I'd have liked to see. I mean so far at least it's good, but I still think the first was better. Then again, I haven't seen the end either

my favorite biome in bz so far is lillypad

[livid oar]

Below Zero is still amazing

|| what a beautiful ending ||

[open flume]

yeah its amazing just not as amazing

if ur first game is that great its hard to live upto it

[livid oar]

Granted that it’s pretty hard to make a game better than the first

[magic frost]

yeah

[mossy socket]

[open flume]

i did hear some stuff about budget cuts too might just be rumors

something about a biome and a leviathan being cut for time's sake?

[inland vapor]

well current world situation also had to do with it

and they wanted to finish the story on a higher priority

[open flume]

i tried to stay spoilers free diving into it

[mossy socket]

[open flume]

youtubers like the antro-(something) guy make staying spoiler free really hard

[stoic zephyr]

anyone else unable to rotate observatory base pieces?

I can only place it with the entrance facing left

[open flume]

have u tried scrolling wheel?

[stoic zephyr]

yes

[open flume]

weird

[stoic zephyr]

I can rotate other parts, just not the observatory

the option doesn't even show at the bottom like for other parts

[open flume]

i only use the multipurpose rooms

[open flume]

they look really nice with the glass top

[livid oar]

|| someone was saying that there’s alternate endings. That’s cap right? ||

[exotic surge]

Hmm

Should I play below zero right now?

[fair osprey]

Sea truck fragment best weapon

[next current]

Ehh, The Claw Arm is still better.

[fleet tartan]

okay, question about the seatruck

it has 4 upgrade slots, but aren't there really only 4 upgrades for it anyway?

depth, horsepower, afterburner, and perimeter defense right?

[magic frost]

do any of those upgrades stack

[fleet tartan]

and none of them stack, so there is literally no room for slot customization?

[magic frost]

too bad the solar charger one from the seamoth wasn't in for the truck

[fleet tartan]

or are there modules i'm missing?

just wondering because I liked the choice of having to decide on things and choose what I wanted to take or increase upon for diminishing returns

[magic frost]

yeah kinda like with the scanner room and speed/distance upgrades

[fleet tartan]

never built a scanner room before lol

[carmine bobcat]

How come the cold is the most dangerous thing in the game

[magic frost]

Is there a depth at which solar power efficiency begins to degrade

[carmine bobcat]

Massive leviathans, squid sharks that can consume you alive, massive creatures or some cold

[magic frost]

mods may address that in the future. A few changed dmg modifiers could change that

[fleet tartan]

because cold is super dangerous

[steel forge]

wassup

[livid oar]

Bro || that ending I don’t know if I can wait for another game lmao it was so good ||

[tidal marsh]

where do i ask questions for bellow zero?

[sonic lark]

same

[magic frost]

I've been putting off the ||pilot signal last known in lilly|| for awhile, is that something I should get to now, or can it wait

[bright coral]

Is it just me, or is the locker in the drop pod gone?

[magic frost]

I had one

[carmine bobcat]

I am strugeling with life right now and below zero is keeping me up i am really thankfull that i can play this game i am really enjoying it if i could gife the devs something back i would do it

[bright coral]

Good to hear.

[steel forge]

here

[tidal marsh]

k

Since im a begginer on below zero and i made a multipurpose room which other room should i get? Scanner or Control Room

[steel forge]

scanner

[bronze panther]

Scanner room is mission critical

[magic frost]

scanner can help in locating minerals

[tidal marsh]

k

[magic frost]

and some other things

[steel forge]

cuz minerals are hard to find somehow

[tidal marsh]

yea for fragment, copper, titanium and more

[bronze panther]

You will need magnetite to really put it to proper use and while I won't tell you where, instead of making you wait forever to look for it you can find it in ||glacial basin, where the purple trees are||

[stoic zephyr]

so uh

you can't eat shrub nuts in freedom

[steel forge]

yep

[bronze panther]

No? The point of freedom is no food/water

[steel forge]

but they are the best food

[stoic zephyr]

that's dumb

[steel forge]

yeah cuz they give you health

[tidal marsh]

well you shouldve known if ur in freedom u cant eat or drink

[stoic zephyr]

they heal as well though which is why I went to get them

[bronze panther]

No, the salad is the best food, hands down

[tidal marsh]

laughs in coffee

[bronze panther]

You can find them on ||delta island, in a cave||

[stoic zephyr]

I mean I get the meters are disabled but really you can't use the consumables at all?

that's honestly just dumb

[bronze panther]

I'll take autosave or multiplayer over that to be honest

[idle heart]

||so um just finished the he question what happened to all the remaining research team after Sam's death did they all just leave or did they all die I couldn't tell or did I miss something||

[bronze panther]

They left the planet of their own volition

[idle heart]

So my boy Fred is alive

[bronze panther]

Yes

[idle heart]

Ok good

[stoic zephyr]

Fred is the best boy

[bronze panther]

Seriously major story spoilers: ||With the Kharaa research effectively scrapped, one of their researchers dead and all their work lost Alterra said to hell with it and left the planet after Sam died||

[steel forge]

i really wanna click them

[idle heart]

Dont

[stoic zephyr]

the temptation is great

[idle heart]

Do not ruin it for yourself

[steel forge]

but i dont want to spoil it

[bronze panther]

Yeah don't you'll work it out

[stoic zephyr]

but I must abstain

[steel forge]

guys

let me ask you

a question

[bronze panther]

I have 167 hours in this game, ask whatever. I probably have advice

[steel forge]

where did yall build your base

[livid oar]

|| are there alternate endings? ||

[bronze panther]

Right now? Near ||Koppa|| for my starter. In past playthroughs I've gone for icebergs

I like icebergs

[idle heart]

||thermal vents near a giant jellyfish||

[steel forge]

i've built mine in the deep twisty bridges

[bronze panther]

No, Marlict

Deep twisty is a good spot because your scanner room covers all of the above and below part of it

Especially if you're new to the game

[idle heart]

||I thought there was going to be one with Marguerite because she's just sitting there in her base after you've disabled the satellite||

Once again unless I miss something and there's more to that

[bronze panther]

yeah I haven't tested it but it'd be neat if ||she has something to say to you before you leave with Al-An|| but I kind of doubt it and that's just weird

[idle heart]

||granted she seems happy there with her stalker friend since it's not like she wants to leave or anything if she did she would have went to the researchers and left with them since she knew Sam she didn't really need rescuing she just lives there now||

[tidal marsh]

ok after the Scanner Room should i make another Multipurpose Room or should i make Control Room?

[wary plinth]

holy crap ||marguerit maida is alive?||

[carmine bobcat]

Is it me or is the repair tool not consuming battery power

[wary plinth]

how do I get past the ||polar bear thing she's tamed?||

[wary plinth]

I think it just takes some time for the battery to go down, I use it on my seatruck constantly and its at 80% power

[clear siren]

What's the source for this? I've played through game etc but never knew why Alterra had left

[olive coral]

You don't

[copper mirage]

wdym

like the wild ones?

[wary plinth]

"she's tamed"

the one at the base

[idle heart]

Complete the thing she asked and you can get past it

[wary plinth]

||the communications tower?||

[copper mirage]

oh i dunno lmao, but the wild ones you just hold a flare and they fear you

[wary plinth]

also, how do I go about ||progressing al-ans story||

[idle heart]

Scan things

Explore

Only way I can say it without spoiling it

[wary plinth]

ok ty

[cloud vault]

which ||spy pengling|| site is the nice plot thing at

[wary plinth]

I'm quite enjoying the story telling for below zero

[cloud vault]

the tame stalker moves after you do the ||comms tower||

[idle heart]

I can't wait to see a next game that takes place in the same lore these games take place in even if it's not a survival game I would still probably get behind it

[bronze panther]

@clear siren Inference from in-game sources. I've spent a lot of time in BZ

[wary plinth]

are there alternate endings for this game?

[glossy vessel]

||Anyone know the diffrence between Endgame Part 2 A and Part 2 B? i played with broken translation that only showed endgame_log_cine something instead of subtitles and i had only part 2 A and when i look into save files theres part 2 B is there 2 versions of ending?||

[bleak harbor]

fetching lithuim and diamonds, cant find many. I didn't die to the 2 big bois or the crab i died to the fire!! I'm so bad

[wary plinth]

@bleak harbor not sure about diamonds but you can find tons of lithium at the purple vents

[bleak harbor]

Im in thermal spires

[glossy vessel]

Easiest way to get diamonds is to dive into deep spiral bridges

[bleak harbor]

I need lithium and diamons to upgrade to mk1 so I can go deep with seatruck then it'll be easier

[bitter widget]

Advice for those playing; I find the best way to gage a new dangerous creature’s threat level is to see how many full speed hits from the seatruck it can take before it dies.
For example;
crypto crocs: 1 hit for easy aquatic roadkill
Squidshark; will die after being run over 3-4 times, will flee after the first hit though
The big lobster shark; took five hits, then fled faster than my seatruck could catch up

[bitter widget]

Look in the kappa mines west of the delta station, at least 1 guaranteed diamond there

[bleak harbor]

How deep? can i go with seatruck

[bitter widget]

Yes

[wary plinth]

could I get a few pointers on cool areas to explore? Or will the game automatically guide me to them?

[bleak harbor]

I'll try it then after i get a few lithium

And scan things because I want to scan the feather fish

[magic frost]

it's also feasible to get a few from Sea Monkeys after a certain point in the story

[glossy vessel]

With seaglide and second tank you can easily get diamonds in twisty bridges

[glossy vessel]

Game will give you map of altera places and your head firend will give you alien places locations

[pseudo dust]

||I killed a squid shark and its still screaming?||

[wary plinth]

ok thank you, is the head friend storyline mandatory by the way?

[glossy vessel]

light spoiler ||Quest that it gives you is main point of story||

[bitter widget]

Yeah that happened to me in the first game with a sand shark, I guess they don’t detect if it’s dead before making the noise

[pseudo dust]

lilly paddlers are so trippy

[tidal marsh]

should i make a seatruck or Control Room?

[wary plinth]

[glossy vessel]

Why you need control room

[wary plinth]

sea truck is more useful if you ask me

[tidal marsh]

where do i find diamonds

[glossy vessel]

If you get seatruck shocking upgrade as long as you sit in seatruck you are safe from everything

[wary plinth]

Y 12 coordinate, make sure to use an iron pickaxe or higher to mine

[glossy vessel]

IF you have second tank and seaglide check dive into twisty bridges

[bleak harbor]

Switch has to charge, I only found 1 lith so ill get more later then get diamonds

[tidal marsh]

i hate you ;-;

[wary plinth]

I had to do it :P

[glossy vessel]

Does the game run well on switch?

[wary plinth]

prob at a 30 frame cap

[glossy vessel]

if its stable its good

[bitter widget]

Or just go to the edge of the deep part of the twisty bridges with a sea truck and dive the rest of the way

[bleak harbor]

yes, haven't noticed anything bad. Obvously not a PC but it runs perfect for the switch

[glossy vessel]

You have a lot of oxygen plants in bridges you dont need seatruck but its easier with it

[bleak harbor]

8 hours casually playing and nothing bad

I'll go without because last time I went down there I left my truck and i assume a creature at it and it fell because of it past 150. I left it at like 145

Had to make a new one. It was my first time using and it already was destroyed

[glossy vessel]

Well first subnautica was terrerible even on pc second runs even on switch

[carmine bobcat]

||i just found out that marg is a terrorist||

[glossy vessel]

try to not spoil the story

[carmine bobcat]

oop

[glossy vessel]

||Well everyone probably knows already that marg is in game but not everyone realised she blow up altera base||

[wary plinth]

note to self do not read spoilers in this chat

[glossy vessel]

I finished the game so i read all of this but if you played early access you can really only get spoilers about ending rest didnt change really

[wary plinth]

I only played a little early access

pre story rewrite so I dont know most stuff

[glossy vessel]

i guess good for you

[idle heart]

https://images.app.goo.gl/EpcUjaT1ndJ8bhyc7

F in the chat for my cut content boy

[wary plinth]

I remember seing that in the dev blog

[glossy vessel]

just wait for the mods for this

[wary plinth]

its a shame it didnt make it into the game

[idle heart]

I feel like The 4th Allen part and the methane ice caves plus this Leviathan would have been very nice but the game is still very good I just really wish I could have saw this guy

[charred sparrow]

hey so I've just been at the ||green house where marguerit tells you about that pda and that it contains important information. she mentions something that sounds like an explosive to get into the ice cave but I can't find it. I've looked at her base and at the Omega Lab|| anyone know what I need to do to progress?

[glossy vessel]

Only part of methane ice caves that left is that you can have upgrades on seatruck and prawn that have crush deep enought for it

[glossy vessel]

||you basicly ended her story now only thing that is left is to see base that she blew up||

[glossy vessel]

||Do you have a friend in your head?||

[charred sparrow]

||what do you mean see base that she blew up? you talking about the omega lab? cause I've already been there||

[glossy vessel]

||so you finished everything that i know about with marg||

[charred sparrow]

||is alan supposed to tell me what to do next cause I've been at the ice cave entrance and even back at my own base but he hasn't said anything||

[glossy vessel]

||what cave entrance? now get your vechicles upgraded and if you have map of it explore alterra places, al-an will give you slowly locations of alien things||

[carmine bobcat]

Where do I get the base building tool?

[glossy vessel]

in a lot of places

[carmine bobcat]

What is the easiest one?

[wary plinth]

you can find the blueprints by scanning its fragments, check the deep twisty bridges

[charred sparrow]

||I'm talking about the ice cave entrance which sam sealed off. it's bellow the bridge next to that architect wire thing. but I've already explored the arctic area and I think I've found all the architect structures around that area. I've definitely found the phi research base and that huge infected leviathan. maybe I've missed something? I've probably skipped a bit in the story cause I couldn't find something earlier on meaning I basically just explored a lot instead||

[glossy vessel]

you can find it in 3 alteraa big places and in twisty bridges

[carmine bobcat]

I heard that one fragment can be found in the ||delta station||, but I already explored it and couldn't find it

[glossy vessel]

||Altera bases are for sam story and marg story did you find architect thing in arctit area past expanding bridge?||

[carmine bobcat]

Nevermind I found it

[inland vapor]

My thoughts on Below Zero (Spoilers): ||Although the total scope of the game is lowered, the drive to piece together the puzzle of this game's story more than makes up for it. If people only go for the actual objectives, being doing what Marguerit wants, finishing Sam's plan, and remaking Alan's body, this game is six hours long. The devs 100% intended for you to uncover secrets just like before only except it's not fancy gadgets rather it's additional lore for the Subnautica universe. Of course there's far less area to play in but a lot of this is based on the introduction of other mechanics, including the Seatruck. The only thing I'm a little underwhelmed by in this game is how abrupt your objective with Marg is ended, I feel like she could've been far more integral to the story. But, being able to see an actual Architect and learning how his race is was more or less fascinating, given few pieces of sci-fi media actually allow us to learn about alien species. Overall, I reccommend Below Zero to anyone, but I ask them to play the Original first. A solid 8.5/10.||

[carmine bobcat]

About where can I find seatruck fragments?

[wary plinth]

deep twisty bridges, you can essentially find all starter gear fragments there

[candid talon]

Yesterday I was exploring, and I found an alterra base relatively deep underwater, there was the prawn jumpjet upgrade but I ended up dying and cannot find the area again, anyone know what direction/biome it is in?

[glossy vessel]

||Playing orginal first is must do. In my opinion we didnt learn more about architects and margarite is useless after story change and i think devs forced to keep her in game because fans really liked that she survived, game is also longer that you said to beat it in 6 hours you really need to memorize entrances to all deep caves and architect parts location||

[bold monolith]

The mining site is west from the Delta Island's beacon.

Opposite side from the beacon. Behind the island.

[fervent junco]

do you guys think this ||postcard from the omega station|| is a hint for subnautica 3?

[candid talon]

Thank you! I was starting to feel ill constantly going in circles trying to find it again

[fervent junco]

tbh id love a ||hot planet that combines desert&sea||

[fervent junco]

you might want to mark that as spoiler no?

[glossy vessel]

In reality if you know what is delta island and you were here you have map of it laready

[candid talon]

I've yet to hear a BZ song that makes me feel the way Abandon ship does from the first game

[brave depot]

i just finished the game (i wont spoil)

10/10 will play again for sure

[fervent junco]

subnautic stimulus hit different

[carmine bobcat]

The air bladder is so good in bz

[bleak harbor]

I feel like the air bladder has saved me so many times. Especially getting fragments early game

[candid talon]

Crash site is a good one too imo

[ashen frigate]

wow

[shrewd inlet]

I just explored the area across the bridge, and it felt... underwhelming? The ice worms are cool sure but it's such a short section and as far as I can tell there's not much reason to go there? There are better places to mine lol

[ashen frigate]

did you make this?

[shrewd inlet]

Are there other ice worm sections?

[charred sparrow]

okay what do I do after being at ||the green house with marg? am I supposed to find that kind of explosive she mentioned or am I supposed to try and find that cave sam mentioned she sealed the cure off in? I really don't know where to go next||

[ashen frigate]

idk i just searched the alien atifacs

[bold monolith]

The latter.

[ashen frigate]

maybe find the mine?

[charred sparrow]

I think I've already found most of the artifacts though. I've unlocked all ||architect components||

[charred sparrow]

I already did that

[ashen frigate]

body parts are componetnts?

[glossy vessel]

Dont read without seeing ending||I really dont think subnautica 3 will be in any other place than architect home world but problem will be that it was in air not water, if it was on this planet this would be part of complete other story without architects, there was 2 unfinished parts after subnautica(did architects survived and what happened to main character) and now theres 3 after below zero(did architects survived what happened to al-an, and 2 main characters and what happened to margarite) to make subnautica 3 they need to expand one of these three part of the game for it to be related||

[glossy vessel]

||Now you fabricate components and you fisnished the game||

[ashen frigate]

i dont have 1 and already fouund the greenhouse

[charred sparrow]

it says so in the pda blueprint section. ||alan mentioned I needed to find the body construction facility or something like that but idk where that is. maybe that's the next step for me?||

[bold monolith]

You can do that or what you said earlier.

Find where Sam was.

[glossy vessel]

||You have materals for all components in pda recipies?||

[charred sparrow]

find where sam was? what do you mean? the phi research site? I've already been there

[charred sparrow]

yes

[bold monolith]

You talked about ||the cave||.

[brave depot]

explore explore explore my friend.and everything will be revealed to you

[charred sparrow]

oh that one. yea but I don't know ||how to get in||

[bold monolith]

It's in the Glacial Basin. If you want more hints just ask.

[charred sparrow]

I've already explored all of the map (although I might have missed some stuff) because I got lost after not being able to find something earlier in the story xD

[next current]

I mean... that's a pretty big one.

[glossy vessel]

||Collect all materials for body and swim north-east-east in crystal caves ||

[brave depot]

then you havent explored enough.if that was the case you would know what to do next and where to go ;p

[charred sparrow]

okay wait to avoid too many spoilers, is there anything beyond the lillipad biome? like to me it just seems like below zeros version of the void? that's the only place I haven't really explored

[bold monolith]

Sam's story ||is optional and not required to finish the game. You can miss it.||

[somber geyser]

||what exactly does a quantum locker do||

[brave depot]

dont explore only wide but deep also

[glossy vessel]

||Theres is below zero version of the void but not super amazing||

[charred sparrow]

I'm pretty sure I've already been there and found most of what I was meant to find. but I did notice at that huge infected leviathan in the ice there was something like a research sample thingy machine. it wanted me to insert something but I don't have that something

[glossy vessel]

||ender chest from minecraft||

[next current]

It's an ender chest from minecraft.

Basically.

[bleak harbor]

||Basically like ender chests in minecraft, they are portable storage||

[glossy vessel]

Lmao see my spoiler message

[somber geyser]

thx :)

[glossy vessel]

Lmao 3 same messages

[bold monolith]

Find that something then.

[next current]

I love how we all had the same idea in mind.

[bleak harbor]

Its practically what it is

[bold monolith]

||You have a map in Phi Robotics that marks the location.||

[next current]

Although, I think the Quantum Locker should be a 5x5 (25 slots) instead of a 4x4 (16 slots).

[still moss]

whats the best location to build a base?

[charred sparrow]

I've tried to explore deep. the deepest I've been able to find is was that area with ||those huge Juvenile Event Guardians. if I followed it down I just got to margs thermal plant||

[next current]

Depends really. What are you looking for?

Power? Materials? Prettiness of the biome?

[glossy vessel]

You can finish the game now base for it is in ||north-east-east of crystal caves screenshot shows what north-east-east means ||

[charred sparrow]

so how do I ||finish her story? I already went to the phi base and the huge frozen leviathan. what next is there to do with her story?||

[bold monolith]

You are not obligated to finish her story, the ending is slightly different if you don't.

[charred sparrow]

aight I'll look around based on the north-east cause I kind of wanna see it for myself

[nimble burrow]

help ;-;

[cloud vault]

if you wish to finish, the glacial basin map has a ||spy pengling cave marked||

[charred sparrow]

I kind of want to finish her story because I love this game so I wanna play it to the fullest

[glossy vessel]

||In some spypengling cave theres a cure for kharaa, in pda logs you hints||

[bold monolith]

Then find the ||antidote||.

[charred sparrow]

I already looked there but it doesn't seem to contain anything but materials?

[cloud vault]

are you sure its the correct pengling cave?

[sonic hazel]

Hello all. I was wondering how ion cubes can be used? I found one at outpost zero with an architect base nearby, and was wondering if I could use that to get into the base

[bold monolith]

You probably had the wrong one.

[charred sparrow]

where? she mentioned ||hiding it in an ice cave when talking to marg but the cave I believe it's in is sealed off and I can't find a way in||

[cloud vault]

you can access it through spy penglings

[charred sparrow]

wait for real? damn. I mean those maps are very confusing but I surely thought I had the right one

[glossy vessel]

||Oh so thats there is ending part 2 A and ending part 2 B||

[bold monolith]

No, they are craft materials. And you can use it to power a special tool.

[bold monolith]

It's just a few lines added to the ending.

[glossy vessel]

||Does it adds anything special story related if you cure the leviathan? becuase i was suprised theres no pda voice after end credits like orginal had||

[bold monolith]

Nothing after the credits in this game, no.

[cold karma]

Is this a good place to ask for technical help? (Well sorta, have a question about achievements)

[glossy vessel]

||Ok it adds this line sad that it add so little but it doesnt explain why theres ending part 2 A and part 2 b||

[charred sparrow]

lmao if you dock your ||prawn suit in the sea truck docking module and use the panel inside to undock it, the prawn suit will just stay at the same level and you can actually walk around with the prawn in mid water (no thrusting)||

[bold monolith]

Using commands disables achievements in the entire save. Restarting the game or checking the checkbox again in F3 doesn't give you the achievements later.

I guess that was your question.

[cold karma]

I had to use the console to unstick myself...does that mean I have to start my save over?

[bold monolith]

If you saved afterward yes.

[cold karma]

Damn it..really? Got stuck between a plant and biogen.

[empty hatch]

Ah hell. What do you do if you've beached your seatruck

[cold karma]

Is there anything I can do?

[glossy vessel]

if you have prawn you can use colisions to get it back in water

[bold monolith]

Go away, the collisions exist when you are around. So if you unload the area it will fall.

[cold karma]

So..guessing that's a no, no ini I can edit or a mod?

bleggg

[bold monolith]

I don't know if there is a mod, but if there isn't right now I suppose that will change.

[glossy vessel]

Oh this will probably also work i grappled onto it when it happend to me with prawn

[empty hatch]

Thanks, I was going to go back to base and get my propulsion cannon

[next current]

The Propulsion Cannon wasn't going to much anyways.

It can't pick up the Seatruck like you could with the Seamoth.

[bold monolith]

Give me your save file.

[carmine bobcat]

its a truck now

[cold karma]

Uhh sure, how?

[bold monolith]

Steam, Discord, Epic?

[cold karma]

Steam/Discord

[carmine bobcat]

%appdata% and find it

its under belowzero

[nimble burrow]

I just finished the game. I cant wait to see what they do if they make another one 😆

[bold monolith]

You have the game on Steam or Discord?

[cold karma]

@bold monolith when you say ||last penguin cave for sams story is this the one you mean?||

[frail lion]

Phi robotics

[carmine bobcat]

there isnt enough frags there

[ashen frigate]

i electrocuted pinguins

[carmine bobcat]

and also how tf did you get there

[charred sparrow]

what do you mean? I just went behind the phi robotics thing

[glossy vessel]

ghost command?

[frail lion]

Agh hang on.... ||Margaret’s base has one || story spoiler

[bold monolith]

||A spy pengling area is somewhere you can go without the spy pengling.||

[charred sparrow]

like there's a whole path to the left

[bold monolith]

And no this is not there.

[glossy vessel]

Marg story is spoiler to first subnautica

[charred sparrow]

but I need to find a spot where I can use the spy pengling, right?

[frail lion]

So I can talk about her without spoilers?

[bold monolith]

Yes.

[frail lion]

Alright: there’s one snowfox frag in phi lab. One in Margaret’s base, and I THINK I found one in a monkey home

[glossy vessel]

here you have coordinates for this cave f1 or f3 in game too see them i dont remember ||-1305, 6, -1141||

[clear siren]

There's a map of locations in phi robotics

In Sam's place

[charred sparrow]

I found it! thanks for the help. I thought the other area was where I needed to go and I got confused when I only found rocks and materials inside

[charred sparrow]

I already have the map but it's very confusing to follow. I guess I just had the wrong spy pingling area

[ashen frigate]

where do i find nickel and how deep?

[frail lion]

Around Margaret’s base I just got back from there

In that area she’s in, the biome

[clear siren]

Also in deep lilypads

[ashen frigate]

ok i need it

[frail lion]

Ooo while I’m here where to I find the “parallel processing unit”

[clear siren]

Mercury ll wrecks

Fragments in there, but you need a laser cutter for all of them

[frail lion]

Ooooo I’m not going in there I’ll do just fine without them

[glossy vessel]

@bold monolith i dont know if you can tell it but im curious how long playtesters had the game before early access was released to public?

[ashen frigate]

its in crashed ships

i died twice while getting that

[frail lion]

If there’s a shark with 6 mandibles there’s 100% ghosts in that place

[bold monolith]

I don't know. I'm playtester since August or September 2019. And the early access released on January.

[glossy vessel]

Oh ok

[charred sparrow]

okay does this happen to anyone else when exploring the ice land area. I keep trying to explore and jump around in my prawn suit and I sometimes find myself on top of places where I don't seem to be meant to be. like on top of the glaciers. I mean I guess it's an easy way back so that's always something

[covert anchor]

Pretty sure there's no ghost levs in BZ, much less near Squid Sharks
Unless you mean actual ghosts LOL

[kindred laurel]

Question about a certain Leviathan:
||is there a way to avoid or get around shadow leviathans?||

[glossy vessel]

shock upgrade of seatruck

[clear siren]

Nope

[charred sparrow]

honestly I think the prawn shouldn't be allowed near the glacier area cause there's so many places you can get on top and out of bounce lol. on top of that the prawn kind of makes the snow fox useless cause it's easier and safer to just use the prawn instead

[covert anchor]

Shock upgrade or be very fast

[fickle trench]

whats the best location for a base?

[clear siren]

Oh cold suit and sprint key means I never use either

[kindred laurel]

ah shock upgrade, i was wondering what one upgrade for seatruck i am missing

[covert anchor]

Wherever you think looks the coolest

[kindred laurel]

going to need to find it

[empty hatch]

I'm having a hell of a time finding ||marguerit's greenhouse||, I'm in the general vicinity of the icebergs but I don't see any way to get up on them. I'm nearby to the central hook-shaped formation of ice, where do I go from here?

[fickle trench]

I just want good efficiency for a base @covert anchor

[glossy vessel]

you get in ||Marguerit Maida's Base|| dont even need to craft it

[covert anchor]

There's really no "best" base
You'll be pretty well set wherever you go so just go by aesthetic

[clear siren]

It's like 1.1km away from delta station dock, the iceberg in question has some alterra torches etc on it

[glossy vessel]

good efficiency base is 2 moonpools next to pod to charge vechicles

and some pipe for storage

[empty hatch]

Thanks, I'm at 700m

[kindred laurel]

guess i missed it heh, gonna go back to her base

[glossy vessel]

if you on pc if you have really rouble finding it use coordinates

[kindred laurel]

went a bit too far deep to get some kyanite and had my first encounter, did not enjoy

[glossy vessel]

I can imagine that

[empty hatch]

Found it, I think. It doesn't help that I'm trying to find it in whiteout conditions. I also came across a||crashed architect satellite||

[covert anchor]

What area does Kyanite spawn in?

Clearly one of the ones with a shadow leviathan, but

[glossy vessel]

||Another to collection if you find enought you will unlock ion battery most usefull thing in world||

[junior phoenix]

Are there any plans to make Subnautica Below zero for linux?

[glossy vessel]

There are probably some people that will port it you just need to wait

You can also use windows

[empty hatch]

Maybe WINE could do it, or in a vm

[empty hatch]

Just got the blueprint for those from the scan. I membuh them from OG subnautica. ||Although, I heard that there's a finite supply of ion cubes in BZ which is unfortunate||

[glossy vessel]

I dont know much about Linux but you always have not activated windows as last option

[bleak harbor]

i eventually wandered into the purple vents and got 5 lithium and like 10 gold. Super happy about that

I also scanned like 20 things

[bold monolith]

No. They have a lot of platforms already to maintain and the poll of players isn't big enough.

[glossy vessel]

with prawn drill arm you can get around 30 in area where phi robotics are ||(one big vein in architect body part place and 3 in some sort of copy of architect sanctuary from orginal one)||

[ashen frigate]

why cant i plant the plant that you need for salad?

[bleak harbor]

Some plants you can't plant for me so I guess certain plants go in certain planting pots or beds

[bold monolith]

The snowstalker's fruit?

[glossy vessel]

you cant plant it underwatere

[ashen frigate]

oh ok thx

[glossy vessel]

get multipurpose room or moonpoll that is partialy on surface

plant on roof of moon pool or inside multipurpose room

[ashen frigate]

there are 2 plants you need pepper i have that and prestons plant

[formal hearth]

Those that saw the ending spoilers do you think they will be making a space like subanutica in the future?

Game

[bold monolith]

I thought it was called Breathedge.

[still moss]

can anyone tell me what a good base location is? ive heard near the giant vent garden

[bold monolith]

It depends what "good base location" means to you and which technology you have. The more practical one is probably around the island because you're basically at the center of the playable area.

[still moss]

might also build in lilypad biome

i first built at the island but theres not much space and i wanna build a bigger base, also if i built it half out of water i get splash sounds while walking

[glossy vessel]

All you need to place for storage and vechicle charging it can be anywhere as Ignis said best is somwhere in center of map

[still moss]

which annoys me enormously

i just want a place thats close to lategame stuff, for sure im gonna build a base in the ||crystal caves|| eventually but now idk

[glossy vessel]

build base near delta island is near all endgame stuff and in center and near resources

you dont need base so much in this game as in orginal subanutica

[still moss]

yeah but the vent things are in the way, like theres not alot of space

[still moss]

i know but i really enjoy base building tbh

[glossy vessel]

you have a lot of space around check other sides of island

[glossy vessel]

everyone enjoy diffrent part of game

[snow garden]

speaking of base-building, can i use the purple vents to set up thermal plants, or do they not produce enough heat?

[glossy vessel]

Dont think where it will be usefull but where it will look the best

[glossy vessel]

i think you can but they dont give heat 100% of time

[snow garden]

Hmm, that makes sense. Shame, i really like that biome

[glossy vessel]

purple vents are have a lot of aggresive creatures i dont think you will enjoy base here

[charred sparrow]

so what actually happened to sam? I just finished sams story and we 're told in the beginning that ||she's dead|| but how exactly did that happen?

[kindred laurel]

i have my base since the start of the game by the first part of the mercury on one side of the island, its on the edge of purple vents, vent garden and lilypads

[glossy vessel]

||paravan caused that acciedent and they both died||

[reef mural]

This.. the constant roaring

[kindred laurel]

very convenient for me

[still moss]

probably ||cause they mutated kharaa and she was infected or something like that||

[stoic cargo]

imo || Alan killed Sam ||

[reef mural]

I built my base nearby the crash site , on that tiny little corner of the bay

[charred sparrow]

||what accident?||

[reef mural]

Bc i wanna build on land

[glossy vessel]

||the cave collapsed||

[charred sparrow]

but when is that mentioned? also does Robin know?

[glossy vessel]

read pdas

[charred sparrow]

ohh makes sense. while they were researching the ||frozen leviathan, right?||

[still moss]

yes

[stoic cargo]

I think it is very much implied .... have || Alan || in you early and closely examine the comments from || zero || and the || fab|| and || ending in general||

[charred sparrow]

I did read them but I've followed the story a bit out of order cause I did one thing and couldn't progress so I went on to do another thing. so the pieces are a bit fussy for me haha

[glossy vessel]

||while she was checking if she can destroy kharaa sapmples Robin knows she even found pda about research of accident||

[stoic cargo]

I am on my third playthrough and I think I learn more each time

[glossy vessel]

that applies to both subnauticas

thinks like pda voice after end credits in orginal subanutica

[stoic cargo]

I think there is a small chance that || Alan has Sam's consciousness though and can resurrect her as part of some conscious collective || .... this series could go in all sorts of directions ... I guess that is kinda a Soma direction

[glossy vessel]

||how alan could have that?||

[stoic cargo]

because he has the tech

[glossy vessel]

||they dont have her body and he wasnt in hear mind so there is no chance||

[stoic cargo]

really? body not needed .

[feral shale]

So uhhh I ran into a ||Squidshark||

[old thicket]

i still cant believe ||marguerita maida made it across the entire void ||to|| sector zero||

[stoic cargo]

Just as long as in Subnautica 8 a seamonkey doesn't kill the Ice King

[feral shale]

Probably the most dangerous thing I've seen so far

[glossy vessel]

||so how they will get her memories?||

[stoic cargo]

on a floating carcass by the sound of it ... no hungry creatures in the void?

[old thicket]

Yeh, none...

[stoic cargo]

conscious not memories

[glossy vessel]

||well in reality they could cut out margarite it really feel forced to be in game with new story||

[glossy vessel]

||i dont get it you cant get her back from thin air||

[round ocean]

literally just completed the whole game

it is one of the best games I have ever played

[stoic cargo]

if you get || early Alan || then you do get the disappointment from || Alan || that
||Marg || ignored his alarm

[glossy vessel]

||wdym early al-an? as i remember he didnt get in contact with marg||

[sterile basin]

i realy want in the next game that Ryley Robinson is now the alterra CEO and manager and he is evil so we will have to fight him or somthing

[old thicket]

||The architects were able to digitally upload their minds to the planet and get inside peoples heads, this could be possible||

[glossy vessel]

play first if you didnt

bruh mark spilers

[stoic cargo]

he knows who she is .... || early Alan || as in get || Alan before Delta or any base ||

[glossy vessel]

what this is totally random and not fiting into curent story

[tidal marsh]

a poster that u can pick up near the powercell area doesnt have an icon in PDA its just a question mark

[glossy vessel]

||If you dont get al-an before delta base its more of late al-an you get hes signal as soon as you dive into deep||

[glossy vessel]

this isnt place for reporting bugs

[stoic cargo]

yes but I am saying to get him early for different dialogue

basically if you do not progress in the game you get clues ... but I am referring to changing dailogue in one off moments

[sterile basin]

i know but maybe in the next game we go with|| al an|| to alterra HQ and stop them from taking over the ||homeworld|| and we find out that Ryley is evil, like what if the only reason he helped sea momy is becuse he was infected and didnt acctualy care for her or the planet

[old thicket]

Ryley is a frickin Non-Essential Systems Maintenance Chief

[sterile basin]

janitor

[old thicket]

how he get promoted

[old thicket]

Same thing

[sterile basin]

he did find the first ever proof of intellegent life

[stoic cargo]

attrition ?

[glossy vessel]

what i dont get it so much why they will ever get in contact back with alterra

[old thicket]

but he has a debt of 1 trillion to alterra

And possibly brought the kharaa with him

[stoic cargo]

at the end did Riley crash on another planet or the same planet? I can't remember

[glossy vessel]

oh ryley not robin this isnt chat for first subnautica

[glossy vessel]

he fly out of planet try to land on earth but cant because he need to pay for all resources used

[sterile basin]

alterra: yo bro u owe us , tis understandable tho so you will only have to help us abit in some missions instead of paying off

Ryley Robinson: K. btw intelligent alien..

alterra: wut

[stoic cargo]

well this isn't chat for Subnautica 3 but the speculation is the purpose of the conversation and it is allowed here

[old thicket]

But he wont be the boss of alterra thats too insane

[glossy vessel]

he cant have kharaa did you even played first subnautica

[glossy vessel]

i guess you are right

[old thicket]

hell be a research chief ot smthing

[stoic cargo]

is it possible to take an antidote with you in this version? yu get the recipe if you lose the sample right? can you then make more than 1?

[sterile basin]

we do know that the inventor of seamoth is a high ranking officer just becuse of seamoth

Ryley Robinson could climb up the ladder fairly quickly

[old thicket]

no he is immune but the bacteria is still in the ship

[glossy vessel]

you say insane subanutica 3 stories without even knowing events of first subnautica

[sterile basin]

i do know the event of the first

just make him evil and come back in the third game

[glossy vessel]

he is in prison or need to work for alteraa for rest of hes life

[sterile basin]

work for alttera

he could climb up the ladder that way

[ashen frigate]

i hope there will be a subnautica 3 where the mc in normal subnautica crashed into space and robin has to fight hm

[old thicket]

bacteria can hpold on to inanimate objects untiol it reaches a host. Example: the hull of the neptune or it got on rileys suit

[sterile basin]

just make him evil and a boss fight and ikm happy

[ashen frigate]

who?

[old thicket]

mmm

[glossy vessel]

before ryley left planet kharaa got nearly completly wiped out

[ashen frigate]

WHO?

[sterile basin]

robinson

[west hollow]

1st game character

[ashen frigate]

who is that is that the mc of normal subnautica

[sterile basin]

ye

[ashen frigate]

i did not know he had a name
