I would literaly kill myself irl lmao
I swear unless he has the radar upgrade
Oh, true
hmm
Assert domination
I made a snow stalker go bald with the pengling robot
Woah I hit 8100 Meters deep and it telephoned me to twisty bridges
niiiice
Oh so its similar to the original game then
Makes sense
Ok back
My god it’s scary making a base in the caverns
Wait, are you telling me you can pick fur on them with the spy pengling ?
I’ve been so traumatized from the first game nothing scares me anymore
Yes
yes
yes
how do i get alan to tell me where to go next
i hate ice worms dude
Oh god im gonna break something, I spent do long searching in caves for fur
He just tells you
by collecting artifacts
Can I get a vague hint, please - ||I've gotten all of AL-AN's parts, but I have no idea how to find the fabricator thingy||
its been a while
i need him to tell me where they are tho
Red crystals 😉
I think
||Crystal Caves||
I have literally never found red crystals
||its somewhere in the crystal caves, you'll know cause the crystals turns red||
||I've found purple though||
Took me an hour to find it lol
!wiki void chelicerate
through purple crystals 😉
Took my friend an hour or find the precursor skeleton took me 5 mins
THE longest
I still haven't found whatever you're talking about @sudden lion
And I'm over 24 hours in
make a youtube vid showcasing it
To be honest I haven’t even built a prawn suit yet
I went to the last ||architect part|| where the ice worm is and just realized I left my teleport thing back at base
I just know a lot about the game
I’m my opinion|| shadow leviathan || is the least scary Leviathan
Im surprised it can even run the game so thats impressive
Same here
Not scary just infuriating
I feel like what you're talking about is probably ||far out in the deep areas on the edges of the map|| but those areas are terrifying because ||aren't they the void?||
h o w
Graphics quality is meh tho
It’s just not scary
Yep
It is a miracle they got Subnautica to run on the Switch
There is nothing of interest down there no, the red crystals are just deeper parts of the crystal caves you've already explored
Didn’t know you were here
It literally externally digests you with bioluminescent ribs
what about fortnite running on mobile 😱
I mean the ||precursor skeleton|| now
It really is
The shadow just makes me annoyed more than scared
Hmm
Does insane damage to your prawn
what about the shrimp
Omg turn your gamma in you setting all the way down and see what it looks like
Oh no, its ||in a sanctuary in the deep lily pads caves||
Shrimp simple fix.
Apparently Mobile actually has higher specs that the Switch
So uhh
Zap
Ok
it can run botw and odyssey????
pokemon???????
Those were probably easier because they were designed for the Switch
true
Wait @vapid kestrel aren’t you in the sprookvooper server
True
does anybody know how to get alan to give u an artifact location
Odyssey is full of tricks and tips to make it look good while keeping the framerate going
pc can 
ive gotten 6 but he hasnt given me another since
I would just wait
Aight ima make a video of me running through it
Maybe look up locations online
Go around and do stuff
but they give u the exact coordinates they dont give u the enterances
Just witnessed a snow stalker get eaten
and they arent the names alan gives u so idk what i have and dont have
He stopped giving me directions after the sixth, I was on my own after that
You can search up tutorials on the tube of you
true
other than giving you a hint that you're on the right track when you're close, idk. you can use a guide though
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKWCN1Kitkg
i shall do that
f
I just explored until I couldnt find anything and came to the wiki for a few hints
Those mines are heavenly for ore deposits
Np
Yeah it isn’t that long tbh it only took me 15 seconds to cross it all
I just realized that the Crystal Caves Cache was basically an architect storage location
also guys prove me wrong but sleeper module is the best module
Yes
how slow is that
Well gtg
Lemme see
Cya ✌🏻
seeya
Ima teleport to the front
Bye
What is the best kind of plant I can grow in exterior planters for the bioreactor?
It turns really quick
Gelsacs or the mushrooms from the arctic
Oh god the speed is painful
@cobalt vector do i even need anymore cus isnt teleporter module the last thing u get (which i have already)
dont i only need body parts
caches
whatever
I dont even know, I never got the teleporter module myself lol
i need tissues and organs
Yes, though you need to install the mod first
That's not really accurate
I just played the Alia intro with my seatruck lights
it was edited on the 13th
If you need a mod to do something, it is not supported
even tho it was sent in 2018
Pain
I know, it just doesn't mention the mod everyone uses to play it in VR though https://youtu.be/HiBqglalsVQ
#Subnautica Below Zero gameplay came out recently and hot on its flipper wearing heels came a Subnautica Below Zero VR Mod gameplay too! Join Ian Higton as he swims around his VR Corner stealing baby penguins and getting into knife fights with Sea Monkeys and Croc-o-sharks as he gives a Subnautica Below Zero VR Mod review of his first 90 minutes...
ya but its referring to just vanilla subnautica
The video is Below Zero. Vanilla Subnautica has VR already
it says mod in the title...
Ahh, you meant Vanilla Below Zero?
oh ya sorry
Yeah, it is a mod. The VR code is still in Below Zero though, but you do need the mod as it fixes a lot of things
ooh i didnt know that
Has anyone noticed in Below Zero the "Welcome Aboard Captain" is still the old voice?
yes
has anyone noticed the boomerang glitch is still a thing
when u grapple boomerang fish with prawn suit u go super speed
Ooh, no, I'll have to try that, haha.
it is very fun
Is ridable fish still a thing? I haven't seen it since EA
wdym ridable
Because everything you build is Alterra tech. The PDA is XenoWorx tech.
Ahh, interesting, that makes sense.
woah i didnt even realize thats why
subnautica lore is cool
You could get on his back and ride him. It was a little crazy in VR though, haha
THOSE R RIDABLE
anyways im gonna find the rest of alans body
WHAT
They are not ridable anymore
seeya
They removed that
💔
They are currently in the beginning stages of a new game, but it is not Subnautica
rip
Where did you see that?
what game
The devs have said this quite a few times
All we know is that it is a sci-fi strategy game
survival?
Sci-fi strategy games usually aren't survival
Here are some examples
oooh
FTL is great, Stellaris is decent too
It’s over snow stalker I have the high ground
The dude who did the music for FTL did the music for Below Zero
that's awesome
That's a really broad range, haha. Two of those examples, no man's sky, elite dangerous etc. are more like Subnautica than a strategy game 🤔
Is there any way to get ||Shadow leviathans|| to leave you alone?
how do i use triple display in game?
idk
they're just a pain
I actually like Below Zero music more than the original. It's interesting how many people adore the original soundtrack though
I think both of the soundtracks are great
I hope if they make a third game they work with Ben Prunty again
can someone give me cold suit fragment cords
This is my base in the caverns so far
Phi Robotics
Any time the shadow comes by it freaks me out
It's amazing how many good Subnautica fan songs there are. Like REALLY well done ones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzF-AI9kikQ
After you guys loved the first subnautica song so much, we had to do one for Below zero!
We hope you guys enjoy it!

even discord is lagging
Give me a sec

idk
It had snow in it
I can give you the coords to Phi Robotics

First thing you see in the Glacial Basin if you enter through the Glacial Bay
Hello people
I'm absolutely loving below zero
except for the fact that it's unplayable
crashes my pc every single time
just pop, black screen
have to shut off my power strip to get it to even restart
the game itself is great
but after some undefined length of time it just crashes my pc
might be crashing the gpu driver, but I haven't the first clue as to diagnosing that
og runs perfectly
They recently pushed a hotfix for the Switch
it's below zero that just crashes at random for me
god
the lack of an autosave feature
probably the only thing I hate about subnautica
@vapid kestrel Have you happened to hear anything about whether the PC version will ever get DS5 controller haptics?
it's just such a standard quality of life feature in virtually every modern video game that making it a habit to manually save is difficult
No idea
Not sure if we will ever get autosaving, apparently at this point it would be extremely difficult to implement
Just use DS4Windows (the program) and it tricks your computer into thinking you're using an Xbox Controller
Yeah, but they specially designed a lot of new haptics just for the new DS5 for Below Zero with trigger haptics and all the new motors it has
DS4Windows would just run it like an Xbox controller with basic haptics
oh don't get me wrong, it's a minor gripe
but combined with the crashing
reeeeaaalllly annoying
true
and I suppose this is the kind of game where autosave could get you into trouble
or five seconds from drowning
If you're on PC, there is a mod for that. It saves to other save slots
sick
so theres only 2 squid shark eggs in the map?
I'd agree with everything except story. The one part of the story of the original I liked, was toward the end and included the end. Aside from that, BZ has a better one imo.
how do i activate this?
One message removed from a suspended account.
is that in outpost zero?
its the place sam works at
What happens when you go go ||margs greenhouse before|| doing the ||tower thingy||
phi robotics i think
Damn lol
yes
to my knowledge you cant do anything with that portal
||Conspiracy Theory: If you make robotic penglings to blend in with the penglings, then what if the penglings made robotic humans to blend in with humans? Maybe Margaruit is a robot?||
I aswell love being frozen to death on top of the ice
No shes a penguin
yaaaaaaa
i have a theory. a game theory but fr i think the Cryptosuchus might be related to the snow stalker are related on evolution POV bc look the both have 4 limbs the both are carnivore and they are aggressive so my theory is the cryptosuchus and the snow stalker have a common ancestor let me tell you a story on why i think this so a 100000 years ago the common ancestor of the of the of the Cryptosuchus and the snow stalker lived where the delta island and Glacial Basin were the same land mass and a group of and when the island split from the Glacial Basin and the ancestor group that was on the island evolved to be aquatic animal and the ancestor on the main land evolved into the snow stalker
where have u guys built your main base?
i was thinking near delta bc its in the middle of everything
which part of deep twisty?
do u have coordinates maybe?
Seatruck Sleeper Module is really weird
It's fine as a module
but how you get it is not
EVERY other Seatruck part but the only obtainable though Architect Artifacts Teleportation Module is scattered all throughout its respective biome. But the Sleeper Module is not scattered all throughout the purple vents
It's in one location, that's NOT the deep purple vents
Deep Purple Vents cave is the Docking Module only
Yeh not deep is rly weird, but docking is also there so maybe thats y
Its not hard its just annoying to locate
One fragment is ||on the floor of the Chelicerate Pen/Arena||, and the other 2 are|| in the small trench network underneath the Chelicerate's Pen/Arena||.
Which I HATE!
I have turned the prawn into a war machine that violates at least two laws of the Geneva convention
Chemical weapons and torture machines
Basically grappling into fish and sawing into them
Any tips for getting to ||Fabricator Caverns|| in the seatruck?
@red grailI will say, one of my favorite features of Subnautica Below Zero is this:
how many modules do you have attached rn?
bring a perimeter defense module
Do what I did and connect thirty aquariums into one truck
depth module mk3, perimeter defense, and afterburner
no seatruck modules
i mean, you can get down there as is
should be good
but i brought a few modules with me to be safe, fabricator, storage, teleportation, and docking with prawn at the back
How do u get nuclear waste disposal, I though i saw one but it was unscannable, still highlighted
Does anyone know what is so obviously cool about the picture I just posted above?
I don't want to bring the prawn just in case
Not the UI, the content of the picture
Nope, see that Cryptosuchus? He's dead
you know WHY he's dead?
look behind him
oh yes it is, in front of the Chelicerate is a VERY dead Cryptosuchus
The shrimps (||chelicerate||) isn't scary anymore
L o n g a q u a r i u m
At lease after you go deeper
That's what I love about this game compared to the first, Leviathans actually will attack and kill medium sized predators in their territory if said medium sized predators get close
they don't do that in the first game
true
“Rule 2: this is a family friendly server”
I’m literally sawing through fish and destroying the ecosystem
Pffft I rode it like a horse
only natural creature fighting in the first game is Stalkers v Bone Sharks
Ride em’ cowboy
Excuse me as I mass produce some mustard gas
Thats nice to see how non-hostile they are at times. This has made me braver after this happened to me hours ago
question
i had the exact opposite experience, they were more aggro than reapers or ghosts
It wasn't hostile because I was grappled, I was hurting it
why did my game suddenly switch from freedom to survival
Cause it can
Known bug. both games do that sometimes for various reasons
how do I fix
Console commands
drink food/water 
I love drinking food.
It is time for the first fish to go to space
my favourite pasttime
Anyone else having the issue with the scan room showing things that aren't there? I'm pretty sure I can't be the only one this is happening to lol
Yo, I just had my first Snow Stalker run-in! I killed it 😦 . It was going to kill me though.
On ps4 pro
Who says penguin things can’t fly
Now you can skin it with the ||spy penglin||
Where do I find root pustule?
underground kelp
i think deep lilypads
Shoot I forgot to bring it!
Crap
yeah
then whats the blue area 🤔
🤔
You got light blue and dark blue
I think I somehow drowned a fish
thats the name of the game i guess "the blue area"
Aye?????
I actually had a peeper get stuck on land once 🤣 poor little guy was just spinning in circles after I chased it
I tried using the gravity gun thing and a fish started glitching out and died
Then I ate him
one swam in my base
Wow!

twice actually
I’m gonna conquer my fears and go in a cave
Gl
BRB
I need to learn how to drive the Snowfox lol!
Also good luck finding lady on edge of map 🤣 no indicator at all, I had to look up a youtube video
"Where the eff is she?!"
Me wandering for hours looking

"She shouldn't be that far away"
Ha right
Thanks for watching all your pain in subnautica!
Might do a subnautica below zero version when the game is fully finished!
Discord server: https://discord.gg/Eq39gWH
Bruh just following the rules! Something that you wouldn't know
that's where the "media" part plays
do crash fish blow up in containment. i forgot if they do.
no
oof
Ima extend it
It's unrelated media too!
hey, is it worth getting back into bz? i havent played it in a while
Mods help!
i wanna do a vanilla playthrough
and i have no idea what the story is so its gonna be awesome
how far do I need to be in to the Glacial Basin to be at risk of an Ice Worm attack?
I found a big lobster
The ice worm isn't in the glacial basin it's under the Arctic spires.
oh ok
Slicey be nice or i'll change your L to a 1 and then everyone will point at you
Guys I'm in free cam mode and I'm flying to space
That moment when you realize that you need one more Snow Stalker fur to complete the cold suit (me)
Cold suit for me was useless
for you
It kinda is, doesn't really do anything
I respect your opinion
No I'm serious it does nothing but give you 4 more second of heat
Petition to be able to throw the boomerang fish
Yes
signed
Lol
Why does the Snowfox sometimes get stuck in the middle of riding?
Because it can

U h h
I just realized something
Unenity’s pfp
Hang on
The guy who posted the yt link earlier
oh yeah!
what does pfp mean?
Profile picture
How do they have the ability to be able to just join a server with that pfp and not even have any second thoughts
exactly
Lol
Hey all, does anyone know if horsepower module stacks?
THE AUDACITY
Lemme check
It does not
Oh
Thanks
I am attempting to make the longest seatruck in subnautica sub-zero
If it breaks my switch then so be it
It broke my switch
It’s not loading
I wish you the best of luck, my friend! My record is around 110.
🗿lol
I’m making them all aquariums
Are you trying to collect all of the small fish at Sector Zero?
P e r h a p s
Impressive.
what is the Snowfox upgrade?
oh
Not me crying after finishing the game because I just love this game so much.
that's all of us lol
I seriously think the Subnautica series has become my favorite games ever
I despise this game i cant even go into the purple caves without hating the decisions that i made that lead me there and leaving in feaer
I cant even type i am too terified
That's understandable.
Very very understandable.
Pun intended?
yep
Its a love hate relationship, I hate scary games but i love this whole game in general
Lol I'm in third person
Nope that happened today
maybe that's just spy pengling
Lol I used ghost cam for a few seconds and went back and this happened
time to go find and kill another Snow Stalker!
IK
like three hits with thermoblade
Cold Suit
Lol I don't need third person I have headless Robin
Ok I put the boomerang fish idea in the game feedback
lol
Do u guys think i should play through the first subnautica i never beat it myself i got halfway and did console commands and teleported and stuff i never beat it fully legit and stuff. I beat below zero
@red grail Nope why?
H m m
Oh my god shut up!
Lol too many kids on here that complain over stupid things. One kid thought i was arguing over a cuddlefish and trivalve yesterday
@red grail We were calmly discussing what we thought was better and some kid was like "Omg guys stop arguing over stupid stuff" And we were all like bruh wym were calmy discussing lol
@red grail Alright F it ima do my first LEGIT playthrough of subnautica
both of you!
Trivalve Band.
i wish they added these ones in so bad.....
What's a roast? (sarcasm)
Can you shut up already!
Ok you are really getting on my nerves!
chill guys...
i can extract salt off this chat now
Lol theres the first chill guys of the day
what will kill trivalves
no no no no!
@red grail Slaughter all of the Snow stalkers
Yeah, we just need to stuff the chatroom into a water filtration machine.
i hate snow stalkers most annoying thing imo sooo annoying
How do I access the overdrive port on the satellite?
cya jerks!
?
I like being a nerd!
I just realized I found 2 trivalve eggs
I found them when I went looking for the ||kharaa antidote|| it was in the caves
I dunno how to explain it
I took a wrong turn and saw 2 eggs and thought. Hey those look cool
i wasnt going to kill them. i wanted to protect them from whatever attacks them.
how do i enter the ||crystal cave cache||
theres no reason i would want to kill them
help pls
there should be an area that has a bunch of crystals that drops down
theres a forcesheild though
alien containment. the big one. just put a hatch on the side and drop them in there.
just walk into it
ah gotcha thanks
its not working
idk then
i checked the wiki and it said i needed the voice in my head but idk how to get it in my head
@sterile stag in the starting area with the underwater vines, go deeper and look for an alien cache.
I was rewatching the subnautica trialed as one does and just realized Marge has been here since the beginning. Jeez
Wonder if she ever plans on leaving
how do you know how to get to the cache if you dont have the voice
i looked it up
yeah but your prob early game if you dont have the voice yet. or found the other caches. you should be there way later than i think you are
Can anyone point me where to find SPiral Plant Clipping? :p
@sterile stag Are you in a vehicle? Such force shields appear if you are in a prawn for example.
@night stratus ||HUUGE jellyfish||
Where? ><
South from Delta base
meh i dont think im rlly early game
@regal night the objects are there, they've fallen the the floor, common bug.
tf?
no one, but sam kinda does
yum
i think ima marry my prawn suit tho
it looks yummy
prawn x me
Which way do I go to get to the ice worm island
by the bridge
I love how I totally got sidetracked. I went to get 30 quartz ... got like 12 .. then I saw a crevice I'd missed and ended up in deep lilly.
im sorry but everything isnt anime ships
its west from delta i believe
I acedentally found ||Margaret's base|| while I was trying to find an ||alien thing||
@crimson stag same .. I was getting titanium and just happened to wander in
whats the mark for spoilers?
|| on either side
kk danke
obviously without the space between II and the words
I find it weird how the ||crystal caves|| are right below ||marg's base||
Like, does marg slay ||shadows|| for a living? Like she did with the ||reaper||?
deep lilly is pretty cool
LOL! That's rich. Go out to get a bunch of quartz, get distracted by deep lilly, find a large quartz minutes later
I mean it seems like her living is killing them.
Well done devs, i guess i have to eat my own wordsl. A few days ago i had said i wish they added the Aurora lights and they did actually. x3
You noticed that now? It’s been there ever since the game came out.
Yo
I only played a few times during early access
Ohhhhhh.
Is there a suggestions thing in the server
@magic frost In crystal caverns
I wanna add a suggestion so that you could throw the boomerang fish
thought this was pretty neat
I have vanquished the beast
Killed a chelicerate
Dude was constantly at the door of my base, getting on my nerves
Prawn suit destroyed trying to drill and punch it
btw what does the ending mean? ||I mean we get on his planet but I'm confused if his planet is destroyed or it always looked like that||
just finished Belowzero
So many dead pengwings from Seatruck's PDS
But I did it. One final stroke of the blade, the beast was dead
can anyone help?
help with what
.
I just got the ending. It was amazing
so how many times do you come across marguerit the whole game?
is it just the 2 times?
Three technicly
I say three cuase of that first cutseen
0.0
yeah I realized
just curious but when u deconstruct the scanner and theres upgrades inside, is the upgrade suppose to disappear?
||"with you, im ready to face whatever awaits" he doesnt care what happened, he is ready to face the consequences of his actions (releasing the kharaa)||
Thats why it is ||left vague||
I don't care that he doesn't care, I care. That's why I want to know what happened
Its scary to know that the biggest living leviathen is the ice worm, atleast thats agressive
Guy, Table Coral is rare or I'm missing something?
You dont knoe if it is dead or not, its part of what he said,
Deeper coral bridges
Annoying as hell to get
How deep is that? I can't go over 100m. 😐
Uhh
Like, oxygen plsnt deep?
Idk, its in one of the deeper parts
Its not shalloe
Doing big spawns is fun. Like spawn exosuit 200 and such
hmm, i'll see if i can find it, thanks
no i know that the planet isn't dead but it looked pretty destroyed
Its also left vague because cliffhangars
goose
goos
can someone tell me what the purpose of this place is please?
AL-AN said it was a place of reflection when the kharaa released
he never said a word to me
Scan it?
I scanned the fruit, the central object is not scannable at present
nothing for you to do though
It has ||architect skeleton||
but cliffhangers most of the times hint on another game. But idk if there will be though
arrrrgh .. so because I'm not to that step yet, I bet I'm here too soon
I guess
it won't let me scan it
A cliffhangar is simply an ending where the outcome is unknown, it doesnt have to matter on another game or not
but I haven't got any cache or parts yet
yeah but I'm hoping for another game
its actually really sad because the skeleton part you found there is probably the remains of a arcitecth that was in his final momments and trying to relax
As you can clearly tell by my typig im on mobile :)
I went out to get quartz and I ended up here 
._.
k
byebdydbydnfhtnficne
why did i get warned about spamming caps twice when i didn't even do it once
I think im getting it right, the top three biggest lebiathens go as ice worm, void thingy, then shadow?
no
Ha imagine your game randomly crashing and telling everyone on the discord server that you're game crashed and my haven't saved since the crystal cave couldn't be me!
._.
shadow, void thingy, ice worm, and then this squid with plants in his head
Yes
Oh ya, i forgot to mention i was talking about agressive bois
Soicety if the water filter module was a seatruck mod
but either way, vent boi is largest passive
there is a hidden shadow xD
._.
found it?
early game seabase power is a nightmare
Bioreactor and solar panels that what used to beat the game
And my base was very small
it doing solar until I find thermal blueprints and it's not cutting it
Bioreactor with a small base was fine
my base is literally like 3 multipurpose rooms and 5 water desalination plants
Mine was one
yeah it's the desalination plants that are killing your base
you don't really need more than 2 in my opinion anyway
but water 
they take an ungodly amount of power
and I slurp and ungodly amount of water, i've got it to a point where it's stable though so that's nice
now I just want to find thermal and switch over
or maybe like a bioreactor shoved full of peepers, i've literally never used bio though so idk how it is
in the process of finding alien containment right now, i'm building in purple vents but it's kinda proving to be too shallow?
Water Desalination Plant?
Nuke reactor with ion is better
You mean the Water Filtration Machine, right?
Root Pustules are the best Bioreactor Fuel Source. Try those.
I'm almost finished with BZ, and I feel... like it could have been a lot better but I just come out underwhelmed and lacking the wonder I had in the first game. Feels more like a checklist.
There's a lot of content in BZ I really love but it feels like the game doesn't take advantage of said content. Everything just feels less impactful.
And the story is... well I won't call it bad but I really would have liked more show don't tell. If all the same events happened but you had to figure out what happened yourself I think that'd have been a lot more compelling instead of the game just telling you.
How to avoid mosquitoes?
you inject poison into your bloodstream so when they start sucking ur blood they die from the poison 👍
It was very strange finding late game materials and fragments so early
i only didn't get grapple arm
and seatruck booster
xD
didn't even use snow fox
or cold suit hot peppers op
and mostly used the seatruck'
snow fox seems like a pain? a lot of inv space just to travel a bit faster on land. Though I haven't come across any super big patches of land yet
never used the prawn
snowfox you breath and its breaks
i just ran from ice worms
and warmed up with hot peppers
or caves
use salads lmao
doesnt decay, +30 hunger +80 water +100 temp
to be fair peppers are... peppered all over the place in the snow areas
still suit i used most of the game
and only one slot
ya well peppers i mostly used before they went bad
and if you explore the ice biomes early you aren't gonna have the salad recipe yet
yep peppers XD and caves
I think that's really fair!! At the same time I personally probably prefer it over Subnautica, I suppose it really just depends on what kind of games people enjoy as I do agree that there is definitely much more of a clear outline and it telling you what to do. But yeah I really loved it (although I'm not done yet I just ||built Al-Ans body||)
true
BZ would be infinitely better with one change: Seatruck saying "welcome aboard captain"
Pfft yah
that pda voice nope
The fact it doesn't pains me every time I get inside the truck it's so very distracting and is somehow more distracting than literally anything else.
I quite like it :p
i miss the old one ._.
me too
if your vehicle doesn't say hi to you, are you really inside of it?
the PDA voice I think is fine, I think people just hate it because it's the uncanny valley of being very close to the old one but not quite.
Honestly I built the seatruck and made a ton of compartments but never got around to using it a single time, just the prawn 😂
only used the seatruck and prawn was on the back never used
ive started carrying a hatch whereever and jusat building it to live in
The seatruck modules thing I'm not sure was well balanced because I never saw a reason to use more than the storage module and prawn module.
i just grow what i didn't want to go back to get
Sleeper module cause you can sleep anytime and have a jukebox
and I'm not sacrificing all of my speed for very niche modules
i've got storage and fab module on mine right now, gonna add aquarium and docking when I get horsepower upgrade
I thought the fabrication module was pretty useful too but then again I didn't use the seatruck itself so idk 🤷♀️
I never need the fabricator module
i did
I always just went home after getting stuff
like two times
sleep module seems totally useless on paper, like there is no reason to sleep at all just a waste of a slot
There have been times both in sn and bz when I wished I could just have a fabricator right there so seems cool to me
I used it once and that was because I didn’t want to make a fabricator at my new base yet and it was to make glass
Fab module could be good early game but this goes back to my issue of it being way too easy to get late game stuff very quickly. So before you know it I have the thermoblade and large water bottles and my base is already in the center of the map... so why use it you already have what you need.
I use it to blast tunes while I go grab stuff from biomes and I can sleep so I can see
part of my base
Also I have a Pic of my pet pengling Timothy in there
I assumed I got the good stuff fast because of my previous experience
my base was very small
WHY IS IS ALL BLUE
color item its a mod
MY EYES
Oh it's a mod okay I was very confused
also color tool was installed
Oooh noice!! I was pretty confused for a sec too lol
i wanted color XD
Use posters and the beds
both my mods XD
It’s nice
I made a base right next to a chelicerate so I could make an observatory for it, It's pretty neat I was 100% inspired by Oarfish to do it.
My base is awesome and is only slightly phallic shaped
Unfortunately the spots I had were... incredibly limited.
Completely unintentional too
this was my base
since there are literally ||4 total|| chelicerates on the entire map
XD thats all 3 lockers
Why are there separate buildings
the pacing in this seems better though, I remember in the first I basically went straight from lifepod to a fully functional thermal powered base in jellyshroom
Really? The pacing was the complete opposite for me.
I have to say the most important start of game location os the mining site
i loved it
but as far as actually filling up the base with useful stuff it took awhile
For me I feel like it was better than in sn
I have a base about 200 m south of lifepod on the very edge of twisty bridges and it’s a nice spot
is it the spot with the big arch between two rocks
No
it because of ||Ai-an||
Near the fishcatcher?
ah
It’s on its border of the safe shallows area and twisty bridges and there’s a big tall thing that is close to the surface but is enough to make a base under and have a glass room to see the bottom of the surface. It’s nice
My first base was there but then I made a better one in the purple vents.
i could have had only a full gameof ||ai-an ||story
I have mixed feelings on the seatruck
i learned to love it
I just made a base by the entrance to crystal caves that a sea truck can go through and a max range scanner room
if you spawn a seamoth its all white XD
cool you can choose modules, but I really miss personalizing it by being able to build inside
Yeah that’s your problem
it beat the game without it
it feels super nerfed, because all the modules you could have just placed something inside to cyclops before
Bruh
I'd have preferred something in between the cyclops and the seatruck.
How do you sleep at night
i beat the game without using a ton of new stuff
@native erminewent back to my base
or made it throught the night
just caves and peppers
😐
But at the same time the cyclops or really anything bigger than the seatruck would be absolutely unusable with how small the map is in BZ.
And how twisty and tight the map is
ah, I haven't explored the entire map yet so i've been assuming it's bigger
i had to get my truck unstuck 2 times
I feel it’s pretty nice
in the whole game
I’ve never had that problem
Caves in BZ are tiny and I explored all of them in a few minutes, and comparing the ||Crystal caverns and other parts of that when compared to lost river is just kind of sad||
well i got it in places i shouldn't have
I’m just built different
My max range scanner room can track ||shadow leviathans ||
yea Subnautica was very 3 dimensional, i'm still exploring and sometimes I wonder if things would even get close to max crush depth
see this effect i didn't like it so i get rid of the code XD
Bruh
i didn't like it
I bet you are a Karen in real life
yea it's a super weird effect, I don't think that would happen with the speed it moves at
nope pretty nice
When I went to the lost river in Subnautica it was an absolute expedition. I had to get fully geared for going in there and plan the mission out and it was pretty cool.
In BZ everything is so small and compact you kinda can just, go where you feel like going and be there in a few moments. 2000x2000 odd km was just too small.
crystal cave was great loved the view
I’m sure you know about small 🤔
XD
parking cyclops on top of a thermal vent and just exploring while you let everything charge
I think 2000x2000 is inaccurate though since a lot of that is inaccessible ice area so it's actually a lot smaller, it's just east-west is about 2000km at most
I never went on expeditions that long and never made many upgrades did it
I built my cyclops for LONG expeditions lol
i finished the game in 11 hours and 13 minutes
First play through?
yep
Y’all people need to enjoy your games
I took a ton of time base building and theorizing so that's why my playtime is as long as it is.
yea i'm not gonna be that fast, I naturally take a lot of time with things
i did
Just enjoy it and have fun not rush through everything and get it over with
but my first subnautica playthrough was about 30 hours and I'm almost done with the game on a save of 15 hours having spent so much time on my base, more than my original base.
imma collector too so I gotta build up a super nice base
Riiiiiiiiiggghhhhhttttt
so yeah I'd say subnautica took a lot longer to beat for me.
if anything I rush through so I can play again super casual on like creative or something
and i guess you want like 40 hours of a 20 hour game
Wat
15 at most
And 3 experiences
I mean who decides the "intended gameplay time" anyway?
That make the game new
This
Y’all are just petty
?
Don’t need this don’t need that. Well just take the sea glide down
well that wouldn't work
I am with cookie
yea I can see how prawn might become kinda useless, imo it's main features were 1) being able to go deeper than seamoth 2) combat 3) mining
Funny thing is you can take the sea glide pretty far in BZ.
S
ya prawn was really not needed
seatruck already gets rid of 1, and respawning ores gets rid of 3
Imp is a bad word?
Prawn suit is good for beating everything to death and resource collecting
why though? you can like everything through just clicking rocks
The drill is the only useful thing
and the rocks come back now
Yeah but the deposits make it easier to get all the stuff you need
Like that’s the entire purpose of kappa
I mean why not have it with you still, because there's not many useful seatruck addons that would make it even go past the 4 module with upgrade limit
i didn't even use the drill arm
Prawn does kind of lose its niche yeah. I definitely used the prawn more in the original subnautica.
Seamoth was the lightweight scout good for just exploring and traversing quickly.
Prawn was your heavy duty tool for exploring more hazardous environments that your seamoth would buckle under, and gathering precious resources that were harder to obtain in SN
Cyclops was your mobile base (duh) for long expeditions where you were planning on being away from home for a while so the slow speed and bulky frame weren't an issue.
The problem is the seatruck is... very durable and resources are very accessible so prawn kind of loses its luster.
Prawn is great for explorin the arctic though, even though that's not really what the devs intended.
hot peppers for the win
The prawn is for mining and beating everything up also it allows you to grab stuff without having to get out of your vehicle and getting chomped by a shadow or shrimpy boy
maybe i think i missed out on the seatruck teleportation tool
For when your getting stuff in those biomes
but its pretty useless
if anything I will bring prawn for just in case I need to slap some aggressive monster down a peg
You get that by scanning everything
my truck was pretty close to me at all times
That’s what’s fun about the prawn
teleport seems like a minor QoL
I thought the seatruck would be very cool until I used it and started to miss the cyclops and seamoth. It has the issue of being good enough at everything so it takes up too much of the sandbox
I would rather just add another storage for longer trips
Ok but If you are out of it and suddenly big shrimpin comes up on you and you’re below 75% you’re gone
do you mean the chelicerates?
The chelicerates are so avoidable that this just isn't an issue.
Yes but he sneaky sometimes
I had no problem just circling big shrimping with seaglide
Just shock them
You’re not listening to me
I very very quickly figured out the patterns of the very few chelicerates that spawn at very few locations
It's not like SN where if you even breathe near certain biomes there will be a reaper leviathan.
I’m talking to sak
I mean i've only had like 3 run ins with big shrimpin so far
exploring dunes? There is a reaper leviathan there, somewhere, anywhere, they are constantly present.
I literally had to SEARCH for the one chelicerate when I was figuring out where to build my observatory, because there are ||4 total|| on the map, which is nothing.
Seaglide was more useful in bz
Below Zero has been pretty fun so far
also I'm gonna be honest I forgot this was a horror game
If you’re in purple vents near where shrinp cocktail hangs out and you wander a little too far from your truck while grabbing lithium you are in trouble if you don’t see/hear him in time
I can definitely say creatures are more of a threat in BZ than they were in OG, I never got killed by a creature in OG despite trying to fight nearly everything
but I got eaten by a squidshark once
Vored*
yes
Nothing instant killed me
The threats aren't really balanced properly it feels like.
I try to escape this word as much as possible yet reaches me even in these discords
Well what can you do
Suffer I guess.
it's such a comedic way to describe getting eaten though
Well I mean that’s what everything tries to do
I suppose but,
mmmmmm don't like it
Less scary things more loud things that sound Big
Monch
To many shadows in that small area
Also the shadow leviathans, while looking incredibly cool, have almost no presence in the game, sadly.
yea like the stalker reskins uhh
Because they had less spawned it felt like
I forgot what they are called, but that cry is wild
Brute Sharks are very aggressive
the four legged things
I found water was to easy to get
i've never had problems with brute sharks, but those four legged things followed me and took a bite a few times
my console commands are not working how to use console in ps4
Snowstalker
no the underwater ones, the black ones
Who those
Don’t
Crypto
those things are kinda neat looking but I really wish their behavior was less goofy
Those guys
Cryptosuchus
Water hasn't been too much of a problem for me, but it feels like there's less bladderfish overall
bre
why not have the 2 rooms connected?
I don't think ps4 lets you use console commands
stupid discord
Because I had the other full
I thought I was reading current messages
That’s what I said
Lol
they take a nibble out of you and run after you slap them a few times. I feel they did a lot more damage compared to stuff in SN1
If we're looking at bases, this is mine currently
Yeah generalll vibes are that below zero feels unfinished, which considering what went on behind the scenes, probably true.
Mine was just those two
I do like the looks of the creatures a lot more though
It makes me just want to go and play the original SN lol.
Oh yeah I agree I think the creature designs are better.
Sorry the reaper leviathan's face is incredibly goofy I just don't know how more people don't see it.
There's a lot of neat things I've seen so far but you can usually avoid most of them.
if anything it kinda stunk that arctic peepers were just objectively the best fish in the game
why does it feel unfinished?
I'd have to essay post to explain that, but the general vibe is that it felt like there should be more and then there just isn't. Also the lack of polish on everything
idk but sometimes the game glitches and rock puncher one hits me
That’s what I said.
I liked having multiple fish for different purposes, like reginald for food and oculus for bioreactor
damn i thought it was cuz i was messing around with commands
but like in this there is no reason to breed anything other than arctic peeper as it fills both those roles
Nah
I have a pet on
