[sterile shadow]

oui

[lunar slate]

how to get to phi excavation site?

[sterile shadow]

||https://youtu.be/_L_hhKDIvSM||

how do u remove link preview on mobile -.-

[quartz pilot]

think of subnautica as the main trunk of a tree
the tip of the main trunk is the ending.
the branches to the side are side stories ||Marguerit's and even Sam's story is side stories||

[viscid vault]

whoah thats weird it seemed like sam would be the main story

robins just like forget u sam im gonna run around with some random alien

[quartz pilot]

not really
cause Sam's story has a beautiful ending

[quartz pilot]

search all the sites before going to Phi
cause PHI will be the place put an end to ||Sam's story|| ||Marguerit's story is a support branch to Sam's story so do that too||

[quartz pilot]

also i hope you do not hold anything against me
i did put the important parts into spoiler

[magic zodiac]

where can i find the prawn suit grappling arm fragment

i got muted for an hour and it just expired

[quartz pilot]

good question

[quartz pilot]

i actually have forgot

sea monkey nests near lily pads
i may be wrong

[magic zodiac]

wiki says the same

so probably right

Lilypads Crevice is near omega base right?

i have a base there, so i might just go and look for it from there

[lunar slate]

is a thermos useful?

[magic zodiac]

@quartz pilotwriting a novel? lol

[magic zodiac]

you can have coffee in it

[lunar slate]

dont i need a machine?

[magic zodiac]

yeah, coffee machine

[lunar slate]

I dont have the blueprints

[magic zodiac]

oh

[lunar slate]

nvm i do

[magic zodiac]

its in delta base i believe \

[lunar slate]

Im just blind

[magic zodiac]

ah

yeah it give 50 heat and -2 thirst@lunar slate

the coffee

[lunar slate]

whats the point of thermos if I can just have cups?

[magic zodiac]

you can have cups?......

[low cedar]

How do I craft ||Alan's body parts? I have the materials but where||

[magic zodiac]

all 3?

[low cedar]

No

1

[lunar slate]

when i use the machine I get a cup, dont i?

[magic zodiac]

you cant yet

[sterile shadow]

you need 2 more parts

[low cedar]

Damn I gathered those materials for nothing

[sterile shadow]

well no, you need them eventually

[magic zodiac]

you will need them

[sterile shadow]

just put them aside for now

[low cedar]

Ok

[magic zodiac]

there crafted in a special place

in a special fabricator

[lunar slate]

wait, what do I put in the coffee machine for it to work?

[magic zodiac]

so keep them aorund

[low cedar]

Thermos

[magic zodiac]

iam gonna try

[sterile shadow]

magic beans

[magic zodiac]

nope

does work, only works with a thermos

[night oar]

yo where are the ultra glide fins

i cant find any guide for them nor find them in general

oh theyre not a thing in below zero

that sucks

[runic crown]

yeah, but u can get swim charge at omega lab

[quartz pilot]

@short knot

1. they can be in the same spot as before. the lily pad islands. or tree spires instead. having them be back will be far better than staying as history only. i feel the pros are far outweighed by the programming it would take to duplicate their functions from the previous game
2. Well getting the cuddle fish wasn't easy. taming a snow stalker won't be any easier but i feel it would be amazing.
3. glad you liked the idea.
4. It is not an over kill every module in the game is not stackable. the player needs to upgrade the modules and put them into the vehicles. the primary upgrades for the scanner room should be the same
5. i think after the discussion i had about it with you. they actually seemed pretty good.
6. Glad you like it.
7. i really desparetly need the stasis rifle to be brought back. it was really great. and for getting to it the player will have to do a side story that will bring more light to things this game has to offer.
8. well Marguerit already wants to have her body be made out of a exosuit. in the PDA marked ||"I'd Rather be Hunting" || she says ||Wish I was just made of exosuit.||. so this will actually be a good way to continue her side story branch
9. well glad you like it. Plus there being a sense of Urgency like them being in trouble will brought a good side story that can be ignored and keep the player worried they would be in trouble if they won't finish the game in time. even tho this will be just a side story and alterra's swat team will always arrive too late. but it can instead be a side story that will be followed to take down their satellite by reactivating the QEP.
10. I really love swiming. and having ear phones will be much more effective than having to put tons of headphones everywhere.

[naive widget]

sheesh

[burnt gate]

what does sheesh even mean

[lunar slate]

whata re those jellyfish like things on the way to phia excavation?

[short knot]

just get the juice and u will undertstand

[burnt gate]

what?

[short knot]

simply jellyfish

[burnt gate]

o think they are called eye jellies or something like that

[short knot]

xqc reference nvm

[naive widget]

nobody knows but we use it anyway

[quartz pilot]

do you still have things against some of the ideas?

[stray magnet]

I have a question. No matter what I do my high settings don't work. They look worse than my medium settings. why is that happening

[short knot]

I dont have anything against them. Just personal preference I believe. If implemented right they all are a good additions to the game

[quartz pilot]

have you reloaded yoru game

glad to hear that

[stray magnet]

yes multiple times

[quartz pilot]

then i'm sorry
i don't know

[short knot]

You might want to just reinstall then

[stray magnet]

ok

[short knot]

have you searched on forums already?

[quartz pilot]

Snom-bot
could i have a request off of you?

[burnt gate]

there is a mod that fixes it for sn i’ll have to check if it’s one the bz nexus real quick

[burnt gate]

what kind

[burnt gate]

https://www.nexusmods.com/subnauticabelowzero/mods/165
here’s the mod

[half sparrow]

yo guy I got a Qustion about the architect skeleton thing :) I got all materials for it bu I can't craft it? Is there a special Crafting Machine at the end where you put the things in or what do I do wrong?

[short knot]

yessir

u might want to explore more

[half sparrow]

Alright :)

yeah ALAN is currently not in the mood to give me more Information x)

[quartz pilot]

i have 10 suggestions i want to provide the dev team. i would love to get your opinion on them so i could improve on them further and perfect them as much as possible

[runic crown]

i hope someone makes a mod with ray tracing, that would be cool, if my pc didn't immediately explode that is...

[burnt gate]

no thanks i’m good but thanks for asking for my opinion

[spiral heath]

Turned my graphics down a little and haven't had a crash in over 30 minutes!

[quartz pilot]

i worked on their grammar a lot
they won't take much time to be read

[spiral heath]

Don't understand why it can run smoothly on max settings but still crashes randomly every 20 min though.

[quartz pilot]

i have no clue as how to help you

[spiral heath]

Me neither man. :c

A command to despawn old dropped items would probably help a little. Has to be some memory thing building up or somethin.

[quartz pilot]

do you have too many screen shots?

[spiral heath]

Like 25?

[quartz pilot]

no something like 800 or somehting

[magic zodiac]

yo

[runic crown]

that is odd @spiral heath , maybe turn off screen space reflections, i think that could cause lag but not crashes..

[magic zodiac]

sick

[quartz pilot]

there are more parts

more like this cursed image

[spiral heath]

I have zero lag on max settings but the crashes crash my entire computer and have become more and more frequent. Didn't happen once during the first 7 hours.

[magic zodiac]

how many body parts have you unlocked?

[spiral heath]

I'll try that!

[quartz pilot]

@half sparrow
one is at the absolute most North West section
the other is a purple crystal cave

[magic zodiac]

chemicalapes has everything

[half sparrow]

Ah yes I know :) I was just wondering how I can craft that

[quartz pilot]

your pc is probably internally damaged
check your fans
your pc is probably over heating

[magic zodiac]

all parts?

how many you got?

[half sparrow]

1

:)

[magic zodiac]

which one is that? the arcitecht tissues?

[half sparrow]

Skeleton

[quartz pilot]

this issue is simply because your PC parts have received permanent thermal damage

[magic zodiac]

there are more parts

[quartz pilot]

@spiral heathcheck your pc fans and clean them
if they don't work
you are in big trouble

[half sparrow]

I know

[quartz pilot]

the organs is in crystal caves

[half sparrow]

Im sure ALAN will tell me where they are

[quartz pilot]

you have to search for them
he won't give locations to them

[carmine bobcat]

Easy way for diamond?

[quartz pilot]

deep twisty bridges

[magic zodiac]

i would say first find the tissue

[half sparrow]

Then I will search them x)

[magic zodiac]

thats more easier

the organ is the hardest

[quartz pilot]

yet again
tissue is in the absolute most north east section of the map

[half sparrow]

yep thx

[magic zodiac]

the tissue is i think in arctic spires cache

[quartz pilot]

i made a silly mistake

[spiral heath]

Alright, I'll try 🙂

[quartz pilot]

alright you pengling murderer i'll provide you info

[spiral heath]

I can run VR games for hours without issues though.

[quartz pilot]

do you have all three architect pieces available?

[shrewd yew]

it is about 1,2 km from bridge and 1,5 km to delta base

[carmine bobcat]

How deep?

[shrewd yew]

400 meters max

[carmine bobcat]

Ok

[magic frost]

I found something like jellyfish, is it safe to get within scan range?

[shrewd yew]

yes

but dont touch down of it

[quartz pilot]

here is hints
the tissue is at the absolute most north west section of them map
the skeleton is deep in a cave in the grand cotton anemone caves (there should be a marker for it)
the organs is in a crystal cave. south west of the crystal cavern's enterance

[quartz pilot]

if you don't touch its tentactles it is

@magic frost could i get your opinion info on my 10 ideas?

[spiral heath]

Fans seem to be working, any clue about what temperature could damage stuff?

[carmine bobcat]

Thanks I got 6 diamonds cuz of ur tip

[quartz pilot]

@carmine bobcatand the place to craft them is in the absolute deepest cave of the map. you will know you are close if the crystals are cubic and red

[shrewd yew]

west part of the map

[eternal garnet]

north-west of delta. Northeast from the ice landing

it's not an island

[shrewd yew]

no problem

👍

[magic frost]

ehh when were they posted

[quartz pilot]

that is THE absolute most north west of the part of the map ||(the same place as the tissues)||

[quartz pilot]

i can repost them again

[quartz pilot]

or i can send you a reply that will take you to the ideas

[magic frost]

either way works

[quartz pilot]

1. So the Sea Emperor kids should be added back to be in the arctic region. It would make for a great point of conversation of Alan being confused as to why the emperor is out of containment. The emperor may try and communicate with Robin making her reach her dream of talking to a telepathic squid. It would be nice to be able to interact with the emperor kid physically.
2. The player should be allowed to have a pet snow stalker. By managing to raise one of the kids by feeding it enough "Preston's delight" and maybe a few more steps (which could be found through a whole new PDA of Marguerit). Then returning to her base while holding a tamed snow stalker kid in your arms could make for an interesting conversation.
3. The Oxygen boost should instead be a suit that has channels for air to eject out of to do the boosting. This will allow the player to have the Ultra high capacity tank and the benefits of boosting. The Booster tank after the early access updates has become useless. But a great way to deal with that is to instead have a booster suit. The Ultra-high Tank is overkill, but this will balance that out amazingly.
4. The upgrades on the scanner room should be disabled to be stacked and instead, there should only be two sockets and the speed and range upgrades should instead be upgradeable inside of a modification station to class 4 to provide max speed and max range. The HUD upgrade should be upgraded to stage 4 if Robin would scan precursor tech related to scanning tech. The HUD at stage 2 will make the HUD provide a 2D top-down colored view map of what the scanner room can see. The HUD upgrade could be upgraded again that if the player goes to the inventory they can click on the 3rd stage of the HUD upgrade, it will provide the player with provide a 3D view of what the scanner room can see. It would be amazing if PDAs be added to the search list.

5. Hybrid Power Transmitters that will be learned through scanning the architect cables and their teleport-er tech. These will have a ton more boosted range but will consume power themselves.
6. Add ladders and Stairs. Climbing on land is a pain. Stairs can be placed on normal land or between two foundations to reach the top of a habitat.
7. The Stasis Rifle should be brought back into the game and only be found in the back of Marguerit's base.
8. Marguerit's Pet is chewing on a Precursor key. The key should be brought back as a side story. It could start with a conversation happening between Alan and Robin. The conversation will be about architects and how they reproduce or how does a mind, born in a flesh body could be transferred into a cybernetic or robotic one. Later on, Robin can come to Marguerit's base and after knowing that Marguerit wishes her body was made out of exosuit ||(in the PDA labled "I'd Rather be Hunting" Marguerit says "Wish I was just made of exosuit."||. Robin could talk to her and provide Marguerit a chance to have a robotic or cybernetic body. A new part will be added to the map where Robin will take marguerit to and there will be a chance for both of them to transfer their minds. This could happen after Alan has got his body!

9. A sense of panic and emergency should be added to the game. In the first game, the panic was getting cured and not dieing of Kharra. This time it could be that The radio tower has been spying on them and a message is sent from Alterra saying we are in their space territory and in trouble. It won't have any impact on the story. Like the story on that planet can end before Alterra swat team would arrive but a side story could be added to deal with them. By alan sending signals to a warper to come to pick us up and send us to re-activating the QEP (quarantine enforcement platform). It will teleport us right into the QEP and cause Robin never gets a purple key. nothing more than the inside of the QEP would be needed to get added to the game.
10. water proof headphones. i would love to listen to music while i'm swiming around and about. The headphone will be used on one of the side modules

[halcyon isle]

Sorry for the bland question, new to subnautica and recently got the first one. Is “below zero” much different to the first and/or better? Thanks

[warm stone]

it's the same game with different areas and story

[magic zodiac]

where are flowering spores?

[halcyon isle]

For a casual would you say it is worth it? Like if I played for 2 hours or so a day?

[quartz pilot]

the caves under the lilly pads island

[warm stone]

of course

[quartz pilot]

there largest floating rock in there
if you swim under it you should reach grand cotton anemones

[magic frost]

||There is a crevice off to the side of the larger central underwater island in Lilly that leads relatively deep where they're found||

[warm stone]

also, I have a question

[short knot]

You should definitely play Subnautica first as we have quite some references in Subnautica Below Zero building up on the original Subnautica. I also feel like many enjoyed Subnautica more than BZ but that might just be personal preference. Personally I found both of them great and consider them to be the best adventure/survival game ever created.

[magic zodiac]

so around omegalab?

or omegla base whatever its claled

[quartz pilot]

exactly under it

[halcyon isle]

@short knot okay thanks for your help

[short knot]

No problem

[magic zodiac]

gotcha! thats where i got my uranium from

[warm stone]

I've found a pda called spy pengling log #1 so I assume there is a #2 ... I've been looking all over the place for it for hours, does it exist ? If so, can anyone tell me exactly where it is

[quartz pilot]

there is a number two

[warm stone]

please tell me where it is

I stopped playing and keep searching for it

[quartz pilot]

i'll show you instead

[warm stone]

yeah I'd appreciate it a lot

[quartz pilot]

here is the PDA
it is in a cave
in a tight corner
it is not a spypengling cave
so you can fit inside it

[quartz pilot]

if you want more info on the things on the map check out this site
https://subnauticamap.io/belowzero

[warm stone]

hmm, so it's close to phi but I dunno how to use that map

lets see

[quartz pilot]

drag your mouse right at the base of that flag
that will be a good indicator as where to look
hint
the cave that log is in is close to frozen lake ground

[warm stone]

I'm assuming it's after phi but before the huge area with the penglings

[short knot]

Dont mind me just chillin with my friend. He aint really talking much but thats ok

[quartz pilot]

even greater hint
use your sea glide's map
don't move and quickly turn on and off the seaglide's map system. in those breif moments you have before the map looses signal you can see nearby caves

[warm stone]

got it, I'll look for the cave

[magic frost]

1. I felt like that should have been in there as it is. 2. I didn't know a pet stalker couldn't be done yet, it's disappointing, 3. I could see this, but wouldn't that circumvent why they nerfed the boost in the first place?, 4. The 3d view part of this I'd support, as the various depths of scans can be a pita to locate. Neutral on the stacking, 5. Perhaps later game .. say 70 percent through. Have to experience the pain before the gain, 6. Not been this far yet, so can't comment with credibility, 7. I don't know about this, they might have to reduce its effectiveness ... either in duration or with a cooldown in between uses to prevent the same scenario that got them removed to begin with, tool clutter in inventory is an issue as is too, so dunno there, 8. This sounds cool, but as I haven't finished, I've only really begun her line of stuff, 9. I could see this, though it could be more interesting having a face off with them on planet, potentially with a bit of cyberpunk (use architect tech to hack their gear, for example, and steer them in to the jaws of a leviathan), 10. This could potentially interfere with knowing when something is coming for you, or the atmosphere of the growling/predator ambient sounds.

[warm stone]

holy

found it, thanks a lot

you have no idea how many times I've passed through that area

[quartz pilot]

3 they nerfed it becuase the player was able to use it on water surface and boost infinitely not because capacity
because the replenishing of oxygen

[eternal garnet]

and what's wrong with boosting forever?

[quartz pilot]

makes sense

thanks for your feed back

[mint plover]

do iceworms only spawn in the areas with the huge ice spires?

[short knot]

jup

[eternal garnet]

no, black spots are spires

[mint plover]

yea

[eternal garnet]

it spawns in most of this map

[quartz pilot]

they will come after you if you are on the snow fox
try walking instead

[mint plover]

oh

[short knot]

u might not want to spoil the whole area though to everyone in here

[mint plover]

sorry

[mint plover]

what about the prawn?

[quartz pilot]

walking will still trigger them
but much less than using the snowfox

[quartz pilot]

i haven't took the prawn there

[short knot]

found it safer to walk around with the prawn and escaping was easier as well with the grapple arm

[mint plover]

good thing i have the grappling arm

[short knot]

they still deal high damage to it so repairing once in a while is a necessity

[mint plover]

ok

could you mark the areas where they dont spawn?

so i can make pit stops

[quartz pilot]

caves

caves that have roofs

[short knot]

whereever you find spikes they will spawn

[mint plover]

are there no openings without ice worms?

[magic frost]

A rear view camera for the truck would also be useful

[short knot]

also not on ledges or overhangs ofc

[quartz pilot]

i forgot to add that to my list

[eternal garnet]

bring 4 medkits, let it attack. Avoid snowfox

[short knot]

well the entrance area is safe I believe

[mint plover]

ok

[quartz pilot]

they will attack on ledges
they will spawn on the lower platform then stick up and stab you

[short knot]

||I just recall exiting the portal area on the ledge and found that they only spawn on the ground there idk||

[mint plover]

what about the frozen lake?

[magic frost]

I was following the Jellies, in to a narrower passage. Problem is, it ended abruptly at a cliff face in 2m deep water. No clear "This is your stop"

[short knot]

also not safe

[mint plover]

oof

[short knot]

jup

but the whole southwest area with ||the leviathan in the ice|| is safe

other than stalkers ofc

[quartz pilot]

that is a whole different biome man

[mint plover]

yeah

[short knot]

yes? thats the reason behind it lol

[vapid kestrel]

Me: "What is that noise? It sounds like I am being attacked but nothing is attacking me"
5 seconds later: looks over at ping for Prawn suit moving around wildly

[short knot]

lmao

[quartz pilot]

@magic frost could i have the permission to add your idea to my suggestion list?

[mint plover]

the point of me going to the artic spires is to get the the ||cache||

[vapid kestrel]

The Chelicerate is literally going through walls to get to my prawn suit

I am in the Deep Purple Vents it is not supposed to be here

Okay and now my prawn suit is gone

[quartz pilot]

there are three
get them all so you own't have to ever return

[mint plover]

it loves chasing the player

[short knot]

yeah thats a thing... found that the chelicerate there goes into walls multiple times (observed via scanner room)

[vapid kestrel]

It was going after my PRAWN suit and not me

Top 10 pictures taken moments before disaster

RIP SHRIMP MK1

[runic crown]

[short knot]

ooooof RIP

[quartz pilot]

you mean the exosuit?
that's a bummer

[vapid kestrel]

I named my prawn suit shrimp and make it shrimp colored

[quartz pilot]

that sucks

[vapid kestrel]

Lol guess I know what I'm doing now

[hollow echo]

I named mine sebastian and colored it red heh

[short knot]

mine was always called norman dont ask why lol. it has been a continuous thing since the original subnautica

[vapid kestrel]

Good name

[short knot]

idk I feel like naming my things silly things lets me forget about the leviathans creeping around lol

never really got to laugh much in subnautica

[eternal garnet]

soon: 14 silly beacons that you don't remember what they are

"Kevin Beacon"

[magic zodiac]

these are all the seatruck modules

[eternal garnet]

there was a planter module once, it got deleted

[magic zodiac]

or there are some missing?

[short knot]

Actually, I am much more likely to remember things I have a silly experience with. Imagine yourself dancing on the balcony to the neighbours while singing a song about a math formula, you will certainly not forget it. not that I did that though ofc...

[vapid kestrel]

There are six modules

[magic zodiac]

huh, so i got all?

[vapid kestrel]

Yes

[short knot]

jup

[magic zodiac]

only thing left now is i think 1 fragemnt for propulsion cannon

[short knot]

I can only recommend adding the scanner module mod though

I feel like its a great addition to the game

[raw elm]

[short knot]

[sullen socket]

what happends if i keep going on this persons land

with the prawn

[short knot]

have you fully explored it already?

[eternal garnet]

pilot? nothing. she is just a grumpy-face

[sullen socket]

oh good i thought i was gonna die

[short knot]

lol

[wintry scroll]

Help

What do i do after going to Whats her face greenhouse

[carmine bobcat]

Imo the shadow boi does a very good job at replacing the ghost levi but the chelicerate is just an overcised shrimp compared to a reaper

[faint vault]

you have completed ||marguerit's|| story

[wintry scroll]

ye

[raw lotus]

I found the deadzone and I thought I would freeze to death but I got a suprise

[carmine bobcat]

Wich surprise

[sullen socket]

is there something special on this island with pilot

[eternal garnet]

yees

[wintry scroll]

Yeah you have fun with that

[short knot]

its really cool you should check it out. its kinda like a secret

[raw lotus]

Prehistoric worm bit my truck

[carmine bobcat]

The ||leviathans?||

[short knot]

yeah lol just wanted him to go there

[carmine bobcat]

I already knew lol cause og subnautica

[short knot]

yessir

[carmine bobcat]

The three ghosts had to be replaced

Idk the new leviathans tho

[pallid hawk]

Do u guys prefer Seatruck or Cyclops?

[carmine bobcat]

I dunno

[short knot]

cyclops in general but not for below zero

[carmine bobcat]

Cyclops i guess

[mystic oracle]

Cyclops

[wintry scroll]

SeaClops

[steel zenith]

Something as big as the cyclops would not work in BZ's map

[carmine bobcat]

Thats it

[short knot]

it would be a real pain to go around

[carmine bobcat]

Thats what i thought

[short knot]

still kinda miss big vehicles though

[wintry scroll]

To many icebergs

[mystic oracle]

it can work on close to sea level surface

but other than that no

[short knot]

still kinda unnecessary

[carmine bobcat]

Id like a boat

[steel zenith]

I like the seatruck, I just wish there was a way to dock the modules to the base so that you can walk all of your stuff in and out rather than having to take a dip

[sullen socket]

what do i build sea truck on

[carmine bobcat]

Cyclops but over the water and platform

[mystic oracle]

you are in the future why do you need a boat

[short knot]

are u good?

[carmine bobcat]

Why not

[mystic oracle]

i mean ingame

[short knot]

well I think you wouldnt use it much

[carmine bobcat]

Mobile vehicle bay

[sullen socket]

k

[carmine bobcat]

Itd be like a floating moving base

[mystic oracle]

get its fragments from twisty bridges

[wintry scroll]

Get every seatruck module

[carmine bobcat]

I did

[wintry scroll]

Then you have your floating moving base

[carmine bobcat]

But i need boat

[pallid hawk]

And u guys feel that BZ has less items and upgrades to do?

[wintry scroll]

ok mods go brrrrrrrrrrr

[carmine bobcat]

Yes

[carmine bobcat]

Can u put moddys on ps4?

[short knot]

I dont think so actually

[wintry scroll]

no

[short knot]

snowfox, all seatruck modules, etc.

[carmine bobcat]

s a d

[wintry scroll]

go get game on pc

[steel zenith]

nah, the games have about an equal amount, but BZ is a bit more leniant with giving you multiple scans at a time. Like, you don't need to find a blueprint for a vehicle upgrade console or most of the modules, you just get it when you have the moonpool and VAC

[carmine bobcat]

Lmao if i had one

[short knot]

true

[pallid hawk]

Yeah maybe it's the same amount of items but they are not as necessary as in the first

[wintry scroll]

oh

[wintry scroll]

oh no

[queen remnant]

What is a vac

[carmine bobcat]

Well i have but its crappy

[wintry scroll]

so is mine

[steel zenith]

sorry I meant MS

as in maniuplation station

[wintry scroll]

But you pay for a 1000$ pc or live without a boat your choice

[balmy ether]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/414461439575851018/848649740815302686/unknown.png

[steel zenith]

the ps4 version is probably just as capable of being modded as the pc version is, but the ps4 is so locked down by sony that it will not happen whithin any realistic timeframe if at all.

[balmy ether]

noice

[steel zenith]

Have you ever tried to tell a french fish where it can and cannot swim? It won't listen to you...because it's a fish.

[balmy ether]

i don't understand the joke xd

[toxic heron]

Yeah, stuff like that happens, i built a counter, and put a stove on top, and you can deconstruct the counter and the stove will float LMAO

[steel zenith]

In all seriousness, stuff like that is just..par for the course in a unity game, you get used to it

[balmy ether]

i see

[stoic cargo]

The PC choice really comes down to wanting a computer for general work/internet/photo and video editing/ watching movies etc and making that computer capable of playing games. The value in the PC is if you need it for more than games

[wintry scroll]

Ummm ok

[gleaming mulch]

For some reason, the ||Delta Island doesn't have the Delta Base nor the Communications Tower|| on it. I have the ||Test Override Module||, but I'm not sure how to progress in the storyline since the ||Communications Tower|| is gone

I think it has to do with a corrupted worldsave, but is there a console command I can use to progress

[steel zenith]

You could seriously play this game very well on a sub-500 dollar PC if GPU/APU prices weren't crazy

[stoic cargo]

yes it does

[spiral heath]

Hmm, just scanned my first ||alien artifact for AL-AN||. it's still showing up marked on my PDA and I haven't got anything to do atm, did I miss something? 🙂

[gleaming mulch]

How do I progress then

[stoic cargo]

oh in your game it doesn't .... beyond restarting and verifying game files I don't know how you can fix that

[steel zenith]

Fairly confident the marking has nothing to do with the scanning and more to do with you being within a certain distance of where the marker is...and new markers will eventually spawn as you hit certain thresholds in the story

[carmine bobcat]

I think i can get it out on a usb and mod it

My "friend" Told me so

[stoic cargo]

are you sure you are on Delta island? Did you have a beacon for Delte dock?

[gleaming mulch]

I did

[wintry scroll]

You have to close the game without saving you will lose progress but if you save it wont save but then open the game back up

[eternal garnet]

@gleaming mulch console? reboot it

[spiral heath]

And never go away? I guess I can just unmark it in the PDA 🙂

[stoic cargo]

oh that does not look like Delta Island

[gleaming mulch]

yeah, cause thats where the station should be

[steel zenith]

Yeah the game probbably didn't register that you got near enough to the marker to hide it automatically, it didn't happen to me but it did happen to my other half

[gleaming mulch]

and its not there

[steel zenith]

What version of the game are you running

[eternal garnet]

someone had this issue yesterday., reboot

[gleaming mulch]

May-2021 44290

is what it says

[steel zenith]

and on what platform?

[gleaming mulch]

pc

[steel zenith]

what are your coordinates?

[gleaming mulch]

-233 42 -776

[gleaming mulch]

didn't work

[stoic cargo]

well restarting has worked for me in EA when terrain features disappeared

[stoic cargo]

verify files?

[soft crest]

Is there somewhere I can report a weird bug?

[gleaming mulch]

will that delete my worldsave

[stoic cargo]

no

[eternal garnet]

press F8

[soft crest]

I was streaming the game and I got out of my seatruck and lost all gravity

Or i mean, I gained gravity

[eternal garnet]

is the water missing?

this happens 😛

[stoic cargo]

lost buoyancy

[steel zenith]

well..that is where delta station should be...so that is a legit bug. Try restarting your PC, then verifying the saves...and if that doesn't work, see if changing to the experimental version corrects the issue

don't save when you're in the experimental version because it will lock your save into that version

[eternal garnet]

experimental is fully playable

[ocean gyro]

Are you intended to be able to get into Koppa mines with the Seatruck?.

[stoic cargo]

yes

[eternal garnet]

ubre, not thru the main door, no

[steel zenith]

Fair enough but i'm not going to tell someone to daily drive the experimental version

[ocean gyro]

I got trough the main door with it.

[celest vector]

You might be able to submit one through discord here too if you want

[soft crest]

Yeah I'm stuck on the ground now

[eternal garnet]

@soft crest save and reload.

[steel zenith]

Do you have enough mateirals to build an i tube and a hatch?

[soft crest]

Oh thats smart

[celest vector]

#🐞bug-smash

[soft crest]

Thank you

[stoic cargo]

you can glitch through that door which is unintended .... the entrance is through a lava vent

[ocean gyro]

https://youtu.be/IIuVD3OR-5U

[ocean gyro]

so could it be reported?.

[eternal garnet]

many have, never mind

or, press F8

[stoic cargo]

you can do .... I am sure they know though

[ocean gyro]

if they know and don't care, Idk why bother with it.

thanks.

[eternal garnet]

dude they really do care. it just takes time to get it out to game files

[balmy ether]

i have a quick question, have you ever seen a lead drilling ?

[steel zenith]

No, I'm fairly certain they don't exist in this game

[eternal garnet]

Can't say that I have, no

[balmy ether]

ooooooooohhhhh nnno

[steel zenith]

Short of building scanner rooms everywhere to try to hunt one down

[balmy ether]

i spent 1h to search it xdd

[steel zenith]

According to the wiki there are no large lead resource deposits

[stoic cargo]

why assume they don't care? getting more reports would change the priority of the issue

[gleaming mulch]

neither worked

[balmy ether]

yeah it seems to does'nt exist

[fleet tartan]

I wish there was lead drill spots, I need foundations

[stoic cargo]

verify the game files

[gleaming mulch]

i did

[balmy ether]

me too 😭

[eternal garnet]

@gleaming mulch same coords

[gleaming mulch]

yeah idk why its not there lol

[fleet tartan]

if your looking for the titanium, go to mercury 2 crash sites and loot the salvage, also find extra scans to turn into titanium ores

[gleaming mulch]

I saw a console command, not sure if this would work though

[eternal garnet]

your game file might be corrupt

[fleet tartan]

but lead you just gotta whip out that ore scanner, no other way around it unless you build an entire scanner room

[gleaming mulch]

thats what I think

but i dont want to rs

[eternal garnet]

I meant your save

[gleaming mulch]

yeah

[steel zenith]

well try the gamereset to reparse the terrain

if it doesn't work, don't save

[eternal garnet]

can try: new game, then console: warp -233 42 -776

[fleet tartan]

i'm gonna have to go on a huge lead and titanium hunt when I get back home

[eternal garnet]

see whats there

[unkempt flame]

my seatruck is orange in the Moonpool but olive green in the water :/

[pallid hawk]

I can't find trhe place

[eternal garnet]

cmX: 950m down

[steel zenith]

you're getting close. Try using your seaglide's proximity map

[gleaming mulch]

yep its there

[pallid hawk]

I think I found it

[stoic cargo]

yes that is it

[steel zenith]

looks good to to me. Give it a try. be a bit cautious about your PRAWN, some helpful fauna may wish to assist you in testing the structural integrity of your depth modules when you're not in it

[stoic cargo]

they look to be in a seatruck

[steel zenith]

serves me right for not wearing my glasses. Same difference.

[stoic cargo]

sea creatures don't attack seatruck when not in it

[steel zenith]

did not know that

[stoic cargo]

stalkers seem to which is funny as they just swim into it

[eternal garnet]

Prawn could get attacked though. There's a bug here

[stoic cargo]

you have to detach the prawn for it to get attacked though right

[eternal garnet]

I think so

[steel zenith]

I just know every time I parked my prawn outside that door I would go 10 meters away, hear the alarm beep, turn around and see the icon being shaken back and forth..and had to rush out and boop a naughty puppy on the snoot

[eternal garnet]

bug is fixed, but not in the common version

[steel zenith]

ended up parking it behind two crystals

[languid shoal]

Do Crashfish respawn?

[vapid kestrel]

Yes

[stoic cargo]

just leave your prawn attached to the truck and you are fine .... swim through the doorway

[steel zenith]

Yes

[eternal garnet]

lul

[steel zenith]

I just LOVE the eyelid twitch there

[gleaming mulch]

so is the only thing I can do rs?

because ive got 11 hours in my save

[steel zenith]

well there's a console command to advance story goals

but it needs a verb that nobody has figured out yet

[eternal garnet]

@gleaming mulch start a new game, then comand: warp -233 42 -776
See whats there

[gleaming mulch]

i did

[eternal garnet]

run command twice, after it loads

[gleaming mulch]

its there

on other saves

[eternal garnet]

ok. THen yes, new game :/

[pallid hawk]

I thought I'd finish the game heree

[gleaming mulch]

really, nothing i can do?

[steel zenith]

try going to the console

[gleaming mulch]

no console commands to spawn a new com tower or anything

[eternal garnet]

nothing I would recommend

[steel zenith]

and trying goal story radiorepair

[eternal garnet]

the worldreset thing?

[steel zenith]

if not, || goal story marg1 ||

spoiler tags don't mix with code tags ;;

[stoic cargo]

you not doing the ending? btw if you want to delay the ending || then if you delay transferring Alan to the body then the benefit of seamonkeys remains ||

[gleaming mulch]

I ran this, and it teleported me but didnt run the storyline and its not there

[steel zenith]

then do ||marg2 and marg3 and marg4|| until

[rustic laurel]

is there any ||artifact in the red crystals cavern||

[eternal garnet]

you will miss some blueprints, eg jukebox

[steel zenith]

Well I think they've already been there

and are going back to do the story goal

[rustic laurel]

what

[eternal garnet]

||an alan part||

[steel zenith]

and the structure despawned

[rustic laurel]

k ty

[steel zenith]

oh sorry, bad reply. your answer is yes

[rustic laurel]

okay ty

also is there any shadow levi there

[steel zenith]

But like I said try ||marg1 marg2 marg3|| etc

[gleaming mulch]

I did

and it didn't respawn the structure, or advance the story

[steel zenith]

I'm just guessing here because nobody's discovered the verb, but it might be something along the lines of ||radiodisable or radiobreak or sattelitedisable||

[rustic laurel]

nvm dont answer my question about the levi i think the game answered it for me

[gleaming mulch]

is there no command to spawn a new delta station

[steel zenith]

unlikely, if the command to respawn the entire world didn't work

[eternal garnet]

@gleaming mulch uniques from island: world map, observatory jukebox mod.station executive toy

[gleaming mulch]

and you know... the radio tower required to progress

[bold monolith]

What's your issue?

[eternal garnet]

his island is empty, in his world save

[gleaming mulch]

Delta Island has nothing on it

[eternal garnet]

in new game it's fine

[bold monolith]

Oh, then remove some baked-batch-cells files.

And your problem is solved.

[pallid hawk]

Is the Sea Emperor a Sea Dragon?

[gleaming mulch]

how & which ones?

[fringe goblet]

Question (please @, reply, or PM me with insight): my WiFi is going to be out for the next couple days. Can I play offline , and when I come back online, will the achievements update themselves? Or will I have to go back and redo the story to get the achievements for steam?
Thank you!!

[eternal garnet]

@pallid hawk wrong game. and no

Not sure steam can launch games offline

[steel zenith]

steam has an offline mode

it just needs to phone home once every couple weeks or so

[fringe goblet]

Yes I’ve launched and started playing offline

[pallid hawk]

I'm asking that because ||in my conversation with Alan he said that Sea Dragon child could produce the antidote, but I thought it was the Sea Emperor child. I don't remember much of the first game. It's been a while since I played it.||

[steel zenith]

as faras achievements, they should be saved and updated when you log in

[fringe goblet]

Sweet, can anyone confirm?

[bold monolith]

2 minutes.

[eternal garnet]

yes it was sea emperor eggs

[pallid hawk]

||So Sea Dragon eggs produce the antidote too?||

[eternal garnet]

no. Probably an error

[steel zenith]

In world they do, In game they did in a very vestigial version, it is no longer part of the current game

[pallid hawk]

Yeah, I'm playing it in portuguese so it makes sense.

[steel zenith]

is there any chance you are playing an extraordinarily old build

[eternal garnet]

translation bug prob

[steel zenith]

or both

[bold monolith]

11-18-9, 12-18-9, 10-18-8, 11-18-8, 12-18-8, 10-18-7, 11-18-7, 12-18-7 and same with 19.

[stoic cargo]

?

[rustic laurel]

im confused ||i go all the way thru red crystals and end up back at purple crystals||

[eternal garnet]

did I see you on clove's stream?

[stoic cargo]

not if you keep descending

[rustic laurel]

e

i think ive shocked the levi so much that he prob gonna die soon

[gleaming mulch]

what do you mean by "same with 19"

[steel zenith]

i'd imagine 11-19-9 12-19-9 etc etc

[gleaming mulch]

just want to make sure

[stoic cargo]

what do those numbers mean?

[gleaming mulch]

cause dont want to delete the wrong ones

[deep kettle]

They are files @stoic cargo .

[stoic cargo]

PC version?

[carmine bobcat]

Rare ?

no

[deep kettle]

Not just on PC, but not as easily accessible on other platforms.

[bold monolith]

Basically you want to remove only the batches around the island.

[eternal garnet]

that's a jacksepticeye easter egg

[carmine bobcat]

that happens whenever you first place the coffee machine

[bold monolith]

So, those.

[stoic cargo]

ah I see now

[carmine bobcat]

okay

[eternal garnet]

jacksepticeye easter egg

[gleaming mulch]

yeah, but not sure what you mean by "same with 19"

[lofty plaza]

how am i supposed to find an alien base if all I see is this

[bold monolith]

18 and 19 as Y.

The X in my screenshot.

[rustic laurel]

||in the red crystals area is there only alans fabrication zone no components right ||

[carmine bobcat]

the game says hydrating coffee but it takes away 2 thirst

[gleaming mulch]

sorry, I don't really understand what you mean

[restive flame]

does this game have a seamoth or something to transport the prawnsuit?

[eternal garnet]

yes docking module

[deep kettle]

There's a module for the seatruck.

[bold monolith]

11-18-9 & 11-19-9.

[rustic laurel]

seatruck docking module

[restive flame]

cool

[eternal garnet]

but the prawn is now a much faster vehicle with boost forward

[restive flame]

still trying to find the rest of the pieces oof the ST fabricator

[steel zenith]

yeah they must have reworked the PRAWN becuase it doesn't get stuck at all like it did in the first game

[rustic laurel]

||in the red crystals area is there only alans fabrication zone no components right and am i able to craft the parts now or no||

[restive flame]

but i have the depth module at last

[gleaming mulch]

it worked
ty for saving me hours of my life trying to figure it out on my own

[bold monolith]

Batch: 11-19-7 (-288, 0, -928) to (-128, 160, -768)

So by removing 19 in the Y axis, you remove the on land part.

[deep kettle]

UWE should have a website or something similar at this point for these kind of issues Ignis, just let someone create a preset from the PT / Dev team and get a one time use link they can upload their save file to :D

[rustic laurel]

e no body parts at|| red crystals rip||

[lofty plaza]

guys where can i find the base in the || crystal caves ||

[rustic laurel]

||u just gotta go past some shadow levi always follow deeper parts go till u see red crystals||

after that

[eternal garnet]

entrance goes down, this is at 670m. Seaglide map helps a lot

[rustic laurel]

go even more deeper

[steel zenith]

So when you remove the files from the save it forces them to be reloaded from the master? I guess this is how they preserve changes to the world like bases and whatnot...and the depreciated terraforming thing

[bold monolith]

Bases are in global-objects, not in the CellsCache files.

[lofty plaza]

yeah i already found that || red biome || but I need the base with the third || body part ||

[bold monolith]

But yes, the first question is indeed right.

[rustic laurel]

||oh i dont know where it is either i got skeleton and tissue ||

[steel zenith]

Gotcha, that's some interesting stuff, never really worked on picking apart the nuances of a game like this.

[lofty plaza]

well damn

[bold monolith]

The "master" is the CellsCache in SubnauticaZero\SubnauticaZero_Data\StreamingAssets\SNUnmanagedData\Expansion.

So by removing files in the CellsCache of your save, you force the game to pick the game's one.

[rustic laurel]

does anything happen if i craft the body parts before i get all of them unlocked

or can i continue like normal

[steel zenith]

that's in the ||Purple crystals||

[lofty plaza]

but where

[rustic laurel]

wait where are the ||organs||

[stoic cargo]

what is the difference between CellsCache and CompiledOctreesCache ?

[lofty plaza]

in a base in the || purple crystal cave ||

[bold monolith]

The octrees are terrain data.

CellsCache are entity data.

[rustic laurel]

||bruh so there is 2 body parts there||

[lofty plaza]

what no

[bold monolith]

If you rename the CellsCache folder in the game's file, and start a new game you'll see only the terrain. No creepvines, no fish, nothing else.

[steel zenith]

I couldn't tell you exactly where I just know that while exploring that biome I found a vertical shaft connected to a narrow horizontal tunnel, and I found it by getting out every so often and looking at my seaglide proximity map

[lofty plaza]

ah ok ty

[eternal garnet]

it's at 670m, hole goes straight down

[granite sapphire]

Hi! ||Why it's so long at the Architect Phase Gate Facility?||

[lofty plaza]

okok

[rustic laurel]

||but u said the organs are at purple crystal cave and someone said his tissue also there ||

[eternal garnet]

don't know what you are asking

[lofty plaza]

no i already have || tissue ||

[eternal garnet]

I think it's organs

[steel zenith]

||Organs are in purple crystal cave, tissue is in the fun zone with snuggle noodles||

[lofty plaza]

|| tissue || is across the bridge from || base phi ||

[lofty plaza]

no thats the || skeleton ||

[rustic laurel]

oh wait im missing the ||tissues not organs||

e

[lofty plaza]

i remember cuz the || tissue was only there because it was frozen ||

[steel zenith]

No, the ||Skeleton is in snowy mushroom wonderland||

[rustic laurel]

i havent barely gotten any artifact chat stuff since i found most of them on accident

[lofty plaza]

nonono || the skeleton was in front of the fountain in disgusting shroom biome ||

[granite sapphire]

||after have give back a body to al-an||

[eternal garnet]

just go to all 3, smile

[steel zenith]

||uh-huh, but they're so soft and fluffy, I wouldn't call them disgusting at all!||

[lofty plaza]

nah they gave me ptsd from jellyshroom

[steel zenith]

I never found jellyshroom in OG

[lofty plaza]

what

how

[steel zenith]

I just never found it, never looked down

[lofty plaza]

lol

[steel zenith]

I got my magnetite one at a time from the lost river

[eternal garnet]

in other words, you never finished game

[steel zenith]

I finished the game several times. but when I went platinum hunting I had missed the PDA on the ground in ||degasi floating island base|| and the entire jellyshroom cave

I went to deep grand reef first, never found jellyshroom, strumbled on lost river from there and continued

[lofty plaza]

i couldnt live with not completing the degasi pda line

[unkempt flame]

my seatruck managed to get stuck in a plant

and then the game killed me

[steel zenith]

well..that's unfortunate. do you have a propulsion cannon to fling stuff at it and hopefully boop it out

[south gust]

Well, I'm three hours in and enjoying it for the most part. I'm VERY disappointed that airlocks weren't added. This is a huge oversight. Getting straight into the life pod from underwater is ridiculous. I'm also a little disappointed that we still have things like bubbles appearing through our bases. I love the new mineral scanner. That's a big help.

Oh and why can't we use snow to make water?! 🙂

[stoic cargo]

wat? there are airlocks, you may have a bug

[steel zenith]

There are hatches and bulkheads

[lofty plaza]

|| you can ||

[steel zenith]

Hatches you have from the start, bulkheads you need to find one to scan

[stoic cargo]

you can ... just needs to be purified

[stoic cargo]

your starting pod has no door?

[topaz plinth]

It assures safety 100% 🙂

[lofty plaza]

i think s*he means that you can only access it underwater

but i dont get why thats a big problem

[steel zenith]

it's super tech..any water that comes in is drained out so quickly that you can't even notice it

[rustic laurel]

i like how pool noodles and shrimps always make sure to give u hugs

[steel zenith]

I call them puppy dogs like that one speedrunner

[lofty plaza]

also did any of u find the postcard with an actual earth city

that was so cool

[steel zenith]

yupyup

[south gust]

He and I mean, you can't just enter into an underwater vehicle without it being filled with water in real life. Yet here, we can. Yes, I know we get bulkheads eventually and we can pretend we have airlocks (as I did in the first game) but we really don't. We should see water emptying out and THEN we're able to open an inner door. This is absurd as it is for a game centred around being underwater.

Thanks for the info on snow. I'm glad I didn't throw it all away now. 😉

[lofty plaza]

i mean... seamoths and prawns do the same

[south gust]

Yup. I was referring to all places we enter from underwater.

[topaz plinth]

Well its a game, and THE most enjoyable game in its genre to boot.. hate on it if you wish, but you won't find better

[steel zenith]

well what that would boil down to is "let's make players wait 10-30 seconds every time they egress or ingress a base" which would, while realistic, be TERRIBLE gameplaywise

[eternal garnet]

yes, I'd hate it so much

[south gust]

It's hardly hate to want something extra in a game I love. Sheesh.

[carmine bobcat]

deep twisty bridges

[eternal garnet]

deep twisties, purple vents

[lofty plaza]

purple vents too

[split bison]

Why is the game more expensive on console

[topaz plinth]

Well sadly you won't, its not a simulation per se

[south gust]

Such things can be optional. Many people LIKE some realism in games, particularly such important realism.

[unkempt flame]

Not like it's weird to have futuristic stuff like exceptional draining technology in this game

[unkempt flame]

Because Subnautica is incredibly realistic

[south gust]

Sure, but we don't see ANY draining happening. 😛

[steel zenith]

Fair enough, but on the other hand it's spending developer time to script and model a feature that 90% of players will turn off after...31 seconds

[lofty plaza]

geez the phasegate animation is so unrealistic compared to reallife

[south gust]

Wow. I suppose I shouldn't have expected better from people even here.

[unkempt flame]

yes, because it would take a while to have to watch it all drain. 😛

[topaz plinth]

I know right artur!

[lofty plaza]

honestly after getting the perimeter thingy for the seatruck i fear nothing

[tardy thorn]

Do you guys know where the new leviathan is located? The Shadow Leviathan I believe?

[lofty plaza]

|| beyond crystal cave ||

[steel zenith]

Nobody's ripping oin you for wanting that, hell maybe someone will make an airlock mod if they haven't already, but at this point you're saying "what part of the game would I have been wililng to sacrifice them working on or polishing in order to put in a feature that pretty much only I'm asking for"

[split bison]

Why is below zero more expensive on xbox

[tardy thorn]

How many meters down is it?

[lofty plaza]

|| 600 ||

[unkempt flame]

If there's anything I want them to change it's the sheer amount of stuff that the scanner room just gets wrong/stuff that's stuck in a wall

[steel zenith]

Without risk there's no reward. Go deeper, go further out...get to know the wildlife a bit..maybe a bit too closely.....also, your mineral detector can pick up fragments

[unkempt flame]

like half the time I used the scanner room at least 1/4 of the results were in a wall

[lofty plaza]

yeah but youll see fragments much sonner than your mineral detector lol

[steel zenith]

If it says Not found, put it away swim 100m and try again

[topaz plinth]

tbh though, if we were going for realism then you would also have to factor other things in like.. the rapid changes in temperature between snow where hypothermia is affecting you then diving in water surrounding said freezing area, and suddenly its all warm again.. the rapid change in temperature alone would be more harmful than the extremities.

[carmine bobcat]

I feel like the scanner room is mostly useless with the mineral detector, all you need it for is better range

[steel zenith]

I tried playing with nitrogen toxicity on and it's just f'in annoying

[unkempt flame]

not really

[lofty plaza]

whats that

[unkempt flame]

with the mineral detector you move slow and the scanner room has a lot more range

[steel zenith]

You take a bit of damage if you come up too quickly

[lofty plaza]

wtf

[steel zenith]

ther's a mod that fleshes it out more, but it ended up being really annoying

[steel zenith]

IRL if you dive for too long with nitrogen mix in your tank, the nitrogen in the air will dissolve into your body tissues, and coming back up too quickly relieves the pressure and makes it fizz out, like an opened soda pop...it's called "the bends" and it can be fatal

[stoic cargo]

I have never found the mineral detector useful ... maybe my game is bugged but I could only detect things I found already

[south gust]

Yup, as a real diver, I can tell you, it's something everyone has to be very careful about.

It's why deep sea divers have to spend time in chambers before they can equalize to normal pressure.

[stoic cargo]

irl you can't make massive objects from resources containing less mass

[steel zenith]

One time in like the early 1900s they were commemorating the building of a bridge or something..had a dinner party inside the caisson...didn't think of anything when the champaigne didn't fizz..and when they left the commemoration party they all ended up with decomp sickness

[stoic cargo]

I am happy with a less than rl approach

[south gust]

Good for you.

[topaz plinth]

Me too Badcows, me too 🙂 I like games to be an escape, and sci-fi, unless it says SIM in which casei want more physics and science as well

[south gust]

For me, even a few seconds of animation and an audible message/light indicator would have been enough to add to the immersion.

[lofty plaza]

oooh i heard of that

divers for oil rigs having to live underwater for weeks or something

[stoic cargo]

good for you

[steel zenith]

The main issue is that that realism is niche features for a niche audience, and they also make the game less marketable and take up development time as well as adding a place for things to break, so there's no impetus for the developers to make such features. Modders may take up the reins if there's enough demand, but you're literally the first person i've ever even heard complain that there are no airlocks.

[topaz plinth]

EIther way though each to their own n stuff, but you have to run with what you can get coded and they were up against a tight release deadline they had to meet. Now if they'd worked a little more on making the prawn 100% needed and not optional.. thats where i would have put my dev time

[lofty plaza]

fr lol

have the prawn strapped to my back all the time and never use it

[steel zenith]

I just wish that one module for the snowfox DID ANYTHING

[unkempt flame]

you mean the Ice worm one?

[steel zenith]

yes

[unkempt flame]

it does something, it makes me laugh at how dumb the name is

[lofty plaza]

i dont really like the snowfox

[unkempt flame]

"Snowfox Ice Worm Attack Reduction Module"

[carmine bobcat]

I saw someone put the module on and noticed like 0 difference

[lofty plaza]

i always end up walking and using it as a mobile warmup tool

[unkempt flame]

what kinda dumb name is that?

[steel zenith]

I like it, it works fine...except I find myself getting knocked off of it every 10m

[unkempt flame]

I like it

[topaz plinth]

Mind you in my playthrough the one giggle i did have with the prawn was when i built my 2nd and more main baise, went to dock it with the docking module on the seatruck(slug) and messed it up, and watched as the fragments of the docking module fell to the sea bed below.. lolworthy , i just had to laugh at my not repairing it

[unkempt flame]

I just feel like there's only one area in which it's useful (Phi robotics)

[stoic cargo]

Snowfox is a great option for people who have tried a thumper but would prefer a mobile version they could sit on

[steel zenith]

I tried a thumper

It got yeeted into the stratosphere

and I found it embedded in an iceberg about 1.5km to the east

[unkempt flame]

did the Ice Worm just wreck it?

tbh it's just not that useful because there's one area where you find an ice worm

[stoic cargo]

yep, thumper and snowfox are both worm decoys .... normally you don't sit on a decoy

[unkempt flame]

I mean, the Snowfox is faster than just walking

[steel zenith]

I've found that the thumper isn't so much a decoy as it stops the spawn completely

like the script starts firing and the thumper interrupts it

[carmine bobcat]

If you put down 100 thumpers, you could theoretically have a huge area with no ice worm

[steel zenith]

until the batteries run down

[unkempt flame]

Ice worm isn't even that threatening

it's big and scary, sure, but it's hit me like twice out of six times

[steel zenith]

it's just f'in annoying to ride 10m and get knocked off and have to find the snowfox inside its hitbox, get on it, ride another10m and get knocked off again

[stoic cargo]

running is faster than prawn and snowfox .... factor in the time to make them ..... unless you want to drill cubes (need prawn) then on foot is easy fast arctic doing all alien sites

[unkempt flame]

that's kind of a dumb way to measure it

[steel zenith]

that area is the only reason I made the ||teleport module||

[unkempt flame]

also there's areas that you need the prawn or snowfox for

[stoic cargo]

you mean "faster" .... your words if you want to start saying 'dumb'

[unkempt flame]

the reason it's dumb is because you're just talking about completing the main quest

is that really all people will focus on with their first playthrough? no.

I doubt someone on their first playthrough is gonna see a fast hoverbike and think "let's just ignore that."

[stoic cargo]

there is no area which they are needed for but prawn can be safe travel for someone who is uncomfortable and prawn allows drilling

[unkempt flame]

there's the area in the arctic spire with the Trivalve egg

[stoic cargo]

trivalve egg is not needed

[tacit plover]

Where's the ||Seatruck shocky module thing?||

[unkempt flame]

^

[stoic cargo]

you can get from deep mushrooms also

[rustic laurel]

i shall name my seatruck the hugger 100 it gives hugs to shrimps and pool noodles

[tacit plover]

Also what's a trivalve?

[stoic cargo]

I have completed all the quests with no vehicle .... maybe people should consider their own comments

[unkempt flame]

it's basically BZ's cuddlefish

[tacit plover]

..I need one.

Where do you find them?

[steel zenith]

here's my thumper

[unkempt flame]

I said that's NOT all that people will focus on. People like to explore. And vehicles are designed for that.

[rustic laurel]

and i shall name my prawn suit the rock puncher

[sudden lion]

Hello

[maiden mason]

god please help me

[unkempt flame]

But hey, if you want to purposely avoid parts of the game, that's on you.

[steel zenith]

there is no god here, only pengling

[sudden lion]

I have a room full of every bed in the game so I have ✨Choices✨

[maiden mason]

im inside the vent garden and I left my sea truck under it and its gone

[tacit plover]

So, two questions:
1: Where do you find trivalves?
2: Where do you find the ||Seatruck shocky module thing?||

[tacit plover]

It was probably below crush depth

[unkempt flame]

Trivalve egss are in a bunch of places

[sudden lion]

No idea

[maiden mason]

the eggs are at the giant mushroom thingys

[eternal garnet]

shocker: pilot's room on the floor

[unkempt flame]

https://subnautica-belowzero.fandom.com/wiki/Trivalve

[sullen socket]

how to i disable altera stuff

[sudden lion]

Wdym

[sullen socket]

for pilot

[unkempt flame]

go to mercury II and scan whatever it's called

[sullen socket]

oh ok

also how do i get mobile vechile bay

[unkempt flame]

scan parts

[sullen socket]

because in both games i can just somehow not find them

[sullen socket]

ik that where are the parts?

[unkempt flame]

no idea

[sudden lion]

I found them in kelp forests in believe

Could be wrong tho

Creepvine I mean

[tacit plover]

Around the area with ||brute sharks||

[sullen socket]

alright ill look there

[sudden lion]

Also there

[tacit plover]

Also, how do you hatch eggs?

[lofty plaza]

is it just me or have they improved the seagilde map?

[tacit plover]

They did.

[lofty plaza]

its so much more useful

[steel zenith]

just being able to bring it up independantly of the light is a huge improvement

[sudden lion]

I like the prawn suit boost as well

Where you can become SPEED

[lofty plaza]

yes

[steel zenith]

oooo, Gawr Gura is doing BZ in a few hours https://youtu.be/2QPTyJ_HCKs

[tacit plover]

How do you hatch trivalve eggs?

[steel zenith]

i'd imagine you chuck them in an alien containment and wait a while

[warm stone]

I've just traversed the whole of arctic spires and haven't got attacked the the big baddie even once

haven't even seen it at all

interesting

[steel zenith]

lucky, I get hit every 30 seconds with it even with the attack reduction module

[warm stone]

I'm on prawn

I want it to attack me just to see it

[steel zenith]

There is an earlier build of the game where the script doesn't fire at all if you're in a PRAWN

you might be running that version

[warm stone]

it says may-2021 44290

[steel zenith]

hm, well that's newer than the ps5 build I play on so IDK what to tell you, maybe you're exceptionally lucky

[carmine moon]

Why can't I place this?

[warm stone]

I'll try wandering around with snowfox

maybe that prawn script is still working somehow

[pallid hawk]

Just finished it

[steel zenith]

congrats

[muted light]

I got into a seemingly infinite loading screen after dieing, what should I do

It’s been 10 minutes now

[pallid hawk]

||Now I want a new game in the architects' planet||

[steel zenith]

IDK is there anything on the outside of the room that might be affecting it?

[fringe jacinth]

Ayo

[carmine moon]

I don't think so

[rustic laurel]

what do i have to do for|| alan to tell me about the organs||

[steel zenith]

it might just be timed

[rustic laurel]

e

i mean

||not organs tissiue||

[short knot]

also thought about that actually

who knows we might get a natural selection revamp

[pallid hawk]

Hope we get

[carmine bobcat]

hello

How's everyone

[carmine bobcat]

or natural selection 3

[carmine bobcat]

you need to face the large room wall and place it there

[carmine moon]

ohh

Yeah still doesn't work

[carmine bobcat]

I just beat subnautica without any cheats at all

[carmine bobcat]

hm

so I'm replaying bz

[sullen socket]

where the hecc is table coral

[acoustic oar]

bro I just finished it. watching credits rn to pay respects to the devs who made this amazing game

[lofty plaza]

lets goo

[acoustic oar]

sheeesh

[lofty plaza]

had everything except that yellow blob lol

[warm pebble]

yoooo

[short knot]

twisty bridges has a lot

[sullen socket]

i can not find any

[short knot]

same for me when I finished it

took me some time to realize where I can actually find that lol

[eternal garnet]

at about 100-200m depth. ORange, with lights on them

[lofty plaza]

i actually took one at the start

thought they made getting blood a LOT easier lmao

[sullen socket]

wait which biome do you spawn in?

[lofty plaza]

safe shallows im guessing

[carmine moon]

Twisty bridges

[lofty plaza]

twisty bridges are to the southwest

or if you keep tha area you crashed on on your right

[carmine moon]

Guys can you look in voice and watch the stream to find out why it doesn't work?

[carmine bobcat]

hi

[sterile shadow]

?

[short knot]

what doesnt work?

[carmine bobcat]

I'm replaying bz

[short knot]

nice

[carmine moon]

I can't place down a partition in one area

[carmine bobcat]

how are you doing

[short knot]

if there is nothing in the way it should but otherwise I cant help sry

[short knot]

pretty good, u?

[carmine bobcat]

great, went swimming today

[short knot]

nice

still too cold for swimming in my region

[muted light]

F

[carmine bobcat]

i was swimming but a current pulled me out too far so i had to swim all the way back lol

[carmine bobcat]

the highest temperatures of the year might be possible this week in Ireland

[eternal garnet]

on the plus side, you are alive

[steel zenith]

swim parallel to the shore, rip currents are usually only a few dozen meters long

[short knot]

oh damn

[carmine moon]

Yeah there's nothing in the way I have no idea why

[carmine bobcat]

it wasn't a rip current, i was already deep it didn't bring me far

[steel zenith]

ohh, hehe

[sterile crown]

Why is my F1 menu small?

[carmine bobcat]

this is bound to end well

[muted light]

Anyone know if cuddlefish are in below zero

[sterile crown]

I think so

[muted light]

Les go

[eternal garnet]

similar: Trivalve

[carmine bobcat]

no but there's a similar animal

[carmine moon]

No there isn't

[sterile crown]

Some thing similar

[hollow bridge]

pretty hecking snazzy

[hoary kernel]

ah yes 1.0 release 🙂

[carmine bobcat]

travilve

[sterile crown]

Yea

[eternal garnet]

stop haxx0ring!

[carmine moon]

No I was talking to awsome taco, should've replied

[sterile crown]

Also is there anyway to make the F1 menu bigger?

[carmine bobcat]

oh lol

[eternal garnet]

it's more than 1/3 of my screen

[sterile crown]

Not mine :/ the words are so small

[lofty plaza]

man || AL An || looks so sick

[mystic oracle]

his tail looks weird

[eternal garnet]

sick as in diseased

[lofty plaza]

sick as in amazing

[toxic heron]

||i know! you should be able to customize his colors before the transfer. it would be so sick ||

[muted light]

HELL YES

[summer compass]

Just realized that there are no leviathan bones of leviathans that weren’t included in the game unlike the first game

[inland egret]

Shouldn't his color scheme be up to him?

[toxic heron]

||he took over your body- i think you should be able to make him blue 😀||

well, went in your head

[summer compass]

Like they could’ve added in a ice dragon skeleton maybe in the Sparse Arctic

[toxic heron]

i think it would be cool to see something a lil more like the lost river in below zero. The lost river kinda connected the entire map, but was underground

[sterile crown]

Is there anyway to make the F1 menu bigger???

[toxic heron]

i’m not sure, i always thought mine was a good size

[sterile crown]

Mine is a good size but the words are tiny

[carmine bobcat]

a seamonkey stole my knife

[sterile crown]

I think he will drop it

[carmine bobcat]

i took it off him

[toxic heron]

yeah, you can follow him and try to get it back, or he will take it to a nest

[sterile crown]

Is there anyway to make the F1 words bigger then?

[toxic heron]

i don’t think so ☹️

[summer compass]

like even though the ice dragon sadly got cut from below zero, they could’ve repurposed the leviathan by revealing its skeleton in the Sparse Arctic. Since in the old concept before the Sparse Arctic was added, that whole area would have been much deeper aka the Deep Arctic which would’ve been home of the ice dragon leviathan biome.

[toxic heron]

that would be awesome. I think they should’ve done something more like the ghost too, where it travels from the river, into the void, to grow to its final size

[summer compass]

But who knows, they could still add in a skeleton of the ice dragon. Because if I’m correct. They are still working on the time capsules

[sterile crown]

Is there any reason to hatch creatures?

[inland saddle]

so apparently with some skillful ghost-building placements you can staircase your way up the ice cliffs with a prawn suit

[toxic heron]

they didn’t really explain the shrimp leviathan that much, and why it was there, and why it looks like that, at least i don’t think so

[inland saddle]

not much to find up here but it's cool that it's possible

although the buildings were having a really hard time... placing at all towards the end

[toxic heron]

you can use them and breed them for a bioreactor

[carmine bobcat]

time capsule???

[toxic heron]

i just use uh- baby penguins as bioreactor fuel......

sorry...........

[sterile crown]

😱

Lol

[toxic heron]

it works real well

[carmine bobcat]

where can i find crystalline sulfur?

[dry atlas]

Would anybody like to share play with me I have the game but to scared to play it

[toxic heron]

ya know crash fish? the flowers they come out of will have them sometimes

[sterile crown]

In the delta tower caves or somewhere near there

[inland egret]

They sizzle nicely in the vat of acid don't they? 😉

[inland saddle]

whenever i look at the alterra facilities map i get the impression that the big white area to the NE is a flatlands you can explore and have fun in with the snowfox or whatever

[carmine bobcat]

oh yeah i forgot those exist

[inland saddle]

then i get near it and remember

that it's all just a huge plateau like 200m high

[inland egret]

I have yet to try if breeding crashfish and using them as ammo against leviathans is a viable strategy.

[carmine bobcat]

guyys my seamoth got destroyed :(((

[sterile crown]

I haven’t found all the fragments for the snow fox

[inland egret]

Torpedoes sure wasn't - they are just as useless as in the first game.

[inland saddle]

me neither

[inland saddle]

i found 2 out of 3

[warm stone]

wandered all around arctic spires with snowfox, no worm again, guess my save is wormless

[carmine bobcat]

I'm sad

[inland saddle]

no idea what you'd even need a snowfox for though, it's not like there's that much land that you'd need to use it on. at least, not that i've found so far

[worn ruin]

Mine is different

[inland saddle]

here's how i got up here btw lmao

[worn ruin]

Snowfox is very useful

[summer compass]

Yeah. During the live stream on release day, a dev said that they were still working on the Time Capsules for below zero that were in the first game

[inland saddle]

should probably go back down before i starve though

[sterile crown]

What do time capsules do?

[eternal garnet]

messages and items from other players

[summer compass]

Just little secret items and photos

[carmine bobcat]

will you be able to make one?

[summer compass]

🤷🏻

[winged plank]

ooh double drill, havent thought of that one, might use it later

[inland saddle]

not sure if its worth it tbh
