[carmine bobcat]

Let me guess six are classified safe

[crude kite]

actually it's mostly only euclid or keter

[carmine bobcat]

Eh makes sense

Is there scp 999 though

The absolute goon

[delicate fossil]

I'm glad titanium ingots cost less

[carmine bobcat]

Ik

Its god send

[delicate fossil]

Probably because scrap metal isn't everywhere now

[carmine bobcat]

No just quality of life

Titanium is literally everywhere now

[carmine bobcat]

You ditch the chat

[crude kite]

It's because I went to portal 2 community edition discord to contribute in the cursed chatter

[carmine bobcat]

Oh

If we continue we should dm

[wheat berry]

amyone got a below zero nap

[carmine bobcat]

Wiki

The wiki has a map with cords and stuff on the same page

[delicate fossil]

Nap

[carmine bobcat]

nap

Typing in bold gives off the vibe of deep fried memes

[delicate fossil]

🅱️AG

[carmine bobcat]

B🅰️GL🇪

That was a bad joke

[delicate fossil]

I like it

[mystic galleon]

Yes

Very cool

[carmine bobcat]

Ah so B🅰️GL🇪

[delicate fossil]

📯

[carmine bobcat]

If your wondering why my autism is scaled to a ten rn i am tired af

[delicate fossil]

I used to be scared of the game, but now I've seen everything.

[true venture]

you have thalassophobia

jk

[crude kite]

hmmm

damn regional indicators

[carmine bobcat]

Wtf i got pinged

[crude kite]

could always add a space to fix it

[steady otter]

Hi everyone

[carmine bobcat]

Hi everyone

[steady otter]

:P

Also I am not neurotypical and am tired

[carmine bobcat]

Same :/

[steady otter]

Also what is your pfp

[carmine bobcat]

Futaba sakura

[steady otter]

Oo I will look them up

I thought it was from persona 5 since the art style and I was right!

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah it is the persona 5 dancing artwork

[steady otter]

Also I love the voice artists in below zero

[mystic wharf]

Does Prawn suit start breaking if a Seatruck it's docked at reaches the suits crush depth?

[carmine bobcat]

Yes but that highly unlikely to happen

[mystic wharf]

I want my cyclops :(

[carmine bobcat]

Why that was a female dog to manage

I love my seatruck its a great step up from that scuffed vehicle

How is the essay going

[mystic wharf]

Pretty good actually

[carmine bobcat]

Nice

I see you gave up on the rough draft

[mystic wharf]

No, had to go

[carmine bobcat]

Ah so crunch

[sacred ore]

hey uh @crude kite .. i found the shadow leviathan you were talking about

[carmine bobcat]

More of we were rambling about

[sacred ore]

i'm starting to think coming here to get a buncha lithium isnt worth

just doesnt seem very smart of me to do

[mystic wharf]

Cyclops:

1. you can build here
2. vehicles don't start breaking; can dock a seamoth
3. faster than a seatruck of the same capacity/functionality
4. can run silently
5. has external cameras
6. nice voice AI
7. has more power cell slots and more slots for cooler upgrades, like a shield, a sonar or auto-repair

Meanwhile, Seatruck:

1. modular -> has more storage
2. can be faster than Cyclops stripped down
3. has an aquarium module
4. can be recharged at a moonpool

[wheat berry]

OK so:
||How can Alan not tell a body part from a pda? The precursors are supposed to be extremely advanced and smart and he comes off like a idi*t. He's supposed to have studied on the sea emperor. They even have a human sword in the PCF, how can they not tell apart tool from human body?

Also how does the most important facility run out of power? Doesn't make any sense, they literally have insane amounts of power available at hand.||

[mystic wharf]

You just can't pilot it properly ;)

[mystic wharf]

Spoilers please

[wheat berry]

@mystic wharf wow that's a very detailed list of cyclops v seatruck

[carmine bobcat]

Oh trust me i could but don't get me goin or auto mod will ban me i love going off on that horrible disaster

[mystic wharf]

Just admit you s* on Cyclops because you can't pilot it :D

[carmine bobcat]

It is impossible to hold a charge on the cyclops with out the ion battery's you literally get at the ned of the game build in it feels more like a bonus it feels like a mobile base but its power draining tendencys completely counteract that the turning is janky af it big and long making annoying to navigate the places required to use it in

[sacred ore]

i am having a pleasent experience 🙂

am i about to die

[carmine bobcat]

And then cons about sea truck

[sacred ore]

u know what samuel? i'm gonna kill it

idfk whether its possible but i'll do it anyways

[mystic wharf]

Remember seatruck uses more power the more modules there are; yeah it's big and hard to control but I got used to it pretty easily

[sacred ore]

this feels like a bad idea trying to kill the leviathan

[carmine bobcat]

sucks without upgrades if your insane and put every module on it its absolute garbage to control can be charged easily and fast with the moonpool

[wheat berry]

@carmine bobcat you're just annoying

Lol

[carmine bobcat]

Oh wait i put i pro because I could't figure out enough cons

[wheat berry]

This dude actually put a really great list and comparison out there

[carmine bobcat]

I put cons he pit pros

[wheat berry]

And you are just like "cyclops bad" without any arguments besides "oh trust me I could"

You are so terribly bad at arguments

[carmine bobcat]

I put cons he put pros

[wheat berry]

Pit?

[carmine bobcat]

Its a typo

[mystic wharf]

Some of them are actually pretty valid

[wheat berry]

He down voted my comment oh no

[carmine bobcat]

I am pessimistic so it easier for me to state cons

[mystic wharf]

It was me :)

[wheat berry]

Still oh no

[sacred ore]

guy's i've come to a realisation. i am not scared of the shadow leviathan. i built a god damn prawn suit, if it tries attacking me i'll beat the crap outa it

[wheat berry]

The cyclops takes ages to run out of power

[carmine bobcat]

I did like how i can build in the cyclops and the dock but its just to much wasted space in my opinion

[wheat berry]

Even with normal power cells

I have never run out of power with the cyclops

[mystic wharf]

"It is normal when first piloting a Prawn suit to feel a sense of limitless power. Prawn operators receive weeks of training to counteract this phenomenon. You will have to make do with self-discipline."

[wheat berry]

Shadow leviathan is weak against prawn LOL @mystic wharf

[carmine bobcat]

Ok but when you have about 12 hours of power with no easy way to charge it

[delicate fossil]

You aren't supposed to kill the leviathans, your just supposed to avoid them or get around them

[wheat berry]

Power cell charger? Just craft new batteries? You find acid shrooms and copper everywhere @carmine bobcat

Your arguments are invalid

[delicate fossil]

If you have a repair tool with you and medkits, they aren't a big problem

[carmine bobcat]

Who wants to constantly make six power cells

[mystic wharf]

Yeah who needs cell charger lmao

[crude kite]

every shadow leviathan maul does about 30 damage to prawn suit

[wheat berry]

It's very important actually... @mystic wharf

[crude kite]

3 mauls and you should get the hell outta there

[wheat berry]

But yeah lol

[delicate fossil]

After 1 grab, you repair easy

[mystic wharf]

I mean you literally said "just craft new batteries"... Whatever

[delicate fossil]

Am I the only 1 who uses the repair tool

[wheat berry]

Yeah but both ways are convenient and have pros and cons in their own ways

[carmine bobcat]

Idk cyclops has its cons and pros and seatruck has its own as well i just find the versatility of the seatruck amazing

[delicate fossil]

I like how much storage the cyclops can have

[carmine bobcat]

May have been my lost river entrance that i hated so much about the cyclops

[delicate fossil]

And you can grow food inside it

[wheat berry]

@carmine bobcat bulb zone entrance is so big wrym?

I have my base at the lost river and it is so easy to get there with cyclops, while the sea truck probably couldn't sneak past the ghost there

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah but i never make bases over there

I use northern kelp

[wheat berry]

It's the best base spot in game @carmine bobcat

Northern kelp is the worst

Because of a ghost leviathan there

[rigid sierra]

Where is Marguerit's greenhouse?

[carmine bobcat]

Its a beautiful biome on top of that

[wheat berry]

It is but it's not really good nor bad

I'd say it's one of the worst

[carmine bobcat]

Every entrance has a ghost leviathan lol

[wheat berry]

Not the BKT

Afaik

[carmine bobcat]

The lost rive is built in a way will you will run into a juvenile ghost leviathan

[wheat berry]

No, no.

You can avoid them. Pretty easily actually.

The LZ however is

[mystic wharf]

Yeah just teleport lmao

[carmine bobcat]

Plus its pretty easy to avoid the ghost leviathan in northern kelp because the ghost leviathan is not over by the entrance

[delicate fossil]

Do something the leviathan won't expect. The first game has the stasis rifle and the repulsion cannon

[wheat berry]

Stasis rifle is the gods gun

[mystic wharf]

BZ doesn't???

[wheat berry]

@mystic wharf it does

[delicate fossil]

Not without cheats

[wheat berry]

Wait nvm

[delicate fossil]

You can dev console them in

[wheat berry]

I thought you meant Bulb zone entrance

[delicate fossil]

But you can't get achievements then

[carmine bobcat]

And again blood kelp beautiful biome

[charred basalt]

it would of been cool if it displayed how many meters you were up as well as down

[carmine bobcat]

I mean

[charred basalt]

cool yes beautiful no

[carmine bobcat]

Do you play on filmic mode with no music

[charred basalt]

no

i like the music

[carmine bobcat]

Look that biome has one of the best settings in the game

But this is getting kind of #subnautica-chat

[delicate fossil]

I wonder if Robin has been scuba diving before she went to 4546b. It takes training to do diving

[wheat berry]

I think Robin telling me more about the biome si enter, especially because she's a xenologist is much cooler than the ripoff Indian pda we have

It's kind of making fun of the "Indians make cheap copies" stereotype, since she mentions she borrowed the pda.

[carmine bobcat]

Look its her "lucky pda"

[wheat berry]

Lol yeah

[sacred ore]

do leviathans regain health? i've been fighting this shadow leviathan for a while and he doesnt seem to die

[restive yoke]

I've been to all of the alien structures but still can't find the architect organs

what can i do

[carmine bobcat]

No just its 5000 health

[sacred ore]

oh lol

[carmine bobcat]

Spoilers and its in the cyrstal castle cahche

[delicate fossil]

Robin has a Xenoworx PDA because she works there

[sacred ore]

the shadow leviathan just flew into the wall and is cheating

[restive yoke]

how can I go to there ?

[carmine bobcat]

Ghost leviathan

[sacred ore]

im calling bs and hacks

[carmine bobcat]

Im not helping its that painful to find

Use guides

[delicate fossil]

Shadow leviathans ai are not the best but they seem to stick to a path

[carmine bobcat]

They are patrolling

[restive yoke]

i got it thanks

[delicate fossil]

What would they normally eat? Rock punchers?

[vivid gorge]

It’s a legacy version, all other XenoWorx people have Alterra PDAs.

[restive yoke]

rocks? .d

[vivid gorge]

Food.

[carmine bobcat]

Cryptosuchus and brute sharks

[restive yoke]

or minerals

[carmine bobcat]

Its what they kill in game so thats my only guess

[sacred ore]

this leviathan wont stop running i aint fighting this guy no more its been 40 minutes

[carmine bobcat]

Use drill arm and grappling arm

[sacred ore]

nvm actually i think i killed it in 1 shot looks like he dead

[restive yoke]

wtf is this

[carmine bobcat]

Nothing

[sacred ore]

are u proud

[carmine bobcat]

No

[sacred ore]

i wasted 40 minutes on this stupid leviathan

[carmine bobcat]

Its a shadow leviathan

[delicate fossil]

You aren't supposed to kill them

[carmine bobcat]

But he did

[vivid gorge]

Exactly why you don’t kill leviathans. You’re not meant to, and it’s a time waster.

[carmine bobcat]

Lol

[sacred ore]

lmfao get smacked nerd

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah now there are three shovels

[pearl gate]

any one down to talk in vc

[sacred ore]

my guy kept running running finally got what he deserved. now i can get my lithium in peace

[carmine bobcat]

Lithium isn't there

Also there is another

[timid horizon]

No there’s lithium there

Not the best place to find but there still quite a lot

[carmine bobcat]

I mean vents is safer and just easier

[sacred ore]

im so proud of myself, i finally killed the leviathan

he wasted legit 40 minutes of my time

[carmine bobcat]

There are three more

Two of which respawn

[timid horizon]

I parked my prawn outside of fab caverns, I’m playing end cutscene and I hear a loud bang turns out shadow ate my maxed prawn

[pearl gate]

ouch

[carmine bobcat]

Reload

[timid horizon]

I last saved before going into fab caverns I don’t wanna go thru the entire cutscenes again

[carmine bobcat]

No its good don't do all that before you want to beat the game

[wheat berry]

There's cutscenes?

Sheeee

[carmine bobcat]

Wait so you call out my argument only having knowledge on one side of it

I hurt

[delicate fossil]

I think vehicles should leave their modules in a floating locker or something when they are destroyed

[carmine bobcat]

Why

[wheat berry]

They do

The upgrades at least

You can retrieve them

[carmine bobcat]

It's supposed to be a major set back when that happens

[carmine bobcat]

You can't

[wheat berry]

You could in subnautica 1

And even the power cells on a cyclops

[carmine bobcat]

Well cyclops is different

[delicate fossil]

Never lost any vehicles in below zero though. Don't even think they got below 60 health

[carmine bobcat]

That makes a normal submersible explode

[delicate fossil]

The Seamoth is actually in the game

[carmine bobcat]

We know

[delicate fossil]

But it has no textures

[carmine bobcat]

Console commands

[delicate fossil]

It's just a big white thing

[carmine bobcat]

Again we know

[carmine bobcat]

Also that not what she said

[delicate fossil]

Why is there no Prawn emote

But we have 5 peepers

4

[wheat berry]

Wait, so it's the shape of a sea moth but it's all white

[delicate fossil]

[crude kite]

yeah but in deep crystal caverns

[delicate fossil]

No 5

[crude kite]

shadow's don't respawn

[carmine bobcat]

Two do

[crude kite]

in crystal caves they do

[carmine bobcat]

The ones in caverns

Not caves

[past flume]

It has the basic colision shape without any actual textures applied other than the default mac white

[wheat berry]

Oh so a missing texture sprite @past flume

[crude kite]

[carmine bobcat]

What we know what a model is

[wheat berry]

Or do you mean the hitbox

[crude kite]

do you seriously not know what collision shape means, it literally means hitbox

[carmine bobcat]

Yo deep fried

[past flume]

No i mean it has the shape of the seamoth, but the default texture is just 255,255,255 on all pixels. No gradient, no art, etc

[carmine bobcat]

Yes it was placeholder you can actually see the seamoth in early concept art

[delicate fossil]

There are yellow parts if you take put the power cell

[wheat berry]

Yeah just like if you're missing a texture in gmod

[past flume]

Exactly

[wheat berry]

Basically just a seamoth without a texture

[delicate fossil]

placeholder

It says that then you look at it too

[wheat berry]

I think it was a early tool to traverse around the maps by the devs, when the map was first created before vehicles were added

[carmine bobcat]

"Yes it was placeholder you can actually see the seamoth in early concept art"

[crude kite]

[past flume]

Btw the speed of the seamoth matches a seatruck without compartments. But the seamoth dies in 4 hits or less, but the truck barely takes damage for same hit.

[carmine bobcat]

I love quoting myself it makes me look smart

[crude kite]

I sawed an image of Hubert Moszka into 4 emojis

and then there's also the

[restive yoke]

How do I open the mirror of the sea truck?

[carmine bobcat]

That was cut

Water wouldn't show and rendering behind the player caused the game to tank

And it was kinda useless

Also a docking module with a prawn on it covered it

Lots of problems with it

[restive yoke]

oh i understand

because i have never used it before

[fathom hatch]

i am now stuck in habitat walking mode when i exit my prawn at 700 meters below

end my suffering

im gonna try to make a hatch and a small compartment and enter and exit, see if it fixes it

[green linden]

Hey guys, does someone is also missing the Antidote in the cave ? I tried to create a new save but it seems to be the same, there is the box but nothing in it :/

[woeful lagoon]

Why meee, i'm not tasty, i was carrying things to seatruck Mk3

[wheat berry]

<@&85343211593166848>

[fathom hatch]

shut up bot

[woeful lagoon]

i'm so sad

[fathom hatch]

i am now stuck in habitat walking mode

underwater

at least i have prawn

[green linden]

Even if you go in and out of the prawn ?

[fathom hatch]

yup

want me to stream

[green linden]

That's weird, usually this bug is fixed by going in and out

[fathom hatch]

it literally displayes the temperature lol

[green linden]

Try to go in and reload the save

[fathom hatch]

no oxygen bar

i just relaoded the save

by logging back in it

after 8 hours of sleep

but remember guys most stable version of bz yet!!!

[green linden]

Go creative, build something with a hatch, go in and save/reload, that should do the trick

[fathom hatch]

naw we going for achievements

im gonna find some lead around here, make a foundation, a compartment, and a hatch

[green linden]

Switching from gamemode block the achievements ? 🤔

[fathom hatch]

in every other game i have ever played, yes

[green linden]

I don't think it does here but I can't confirm it so the safe way is better ^^

Or dying can be a good reset too x)

[somber glacier]

Мда даже сабнатика ну я больше не фанат сабнатики👍

ЛГБТ срглбт иди те нахуй

[fathom hatch]

i agree

[fathom hatch]

my prawn is 700 meters below

and 1.4k from my base

[lean notch]

Just kill it

[somber glacier]

Хорошо что не кто не понимает меня

[woeful lagoon]

It's not easy bruh

[green linden]

Yeah well, the base option is the best then x)

[lean notch]

Just use your knife

And stab it

[fathom hatch]

i only need one more lead

[lean notch]

I killed 2 of them in like 10 minutes

[fathom hatch]

AAAAAAA

[lean notch]

With prawn

Suit

[fathom hatch]

OK NEW PLAN

[restive yoke]

maida's pet is blocking the entrance

[lean notch]

You have to complete the task first

[restive yoke]

ah ok

can it kill me .d

[fathom hatch]

overriding new plan

if we stay awaty from big thing

AAAAA

[carmine bobcat]

I completed the game but never found a good base location, any recommendations

[fathom hatch]

overriding my new new new plan

we are getting the hell out of compton

[delicate fossil]

@carmine bobcat sometimes you just make an area a good base location

[fathom hatch]

when you break the game so badly you realize they never check if you're underwater if you exit and enter a prawn suit

"most stable version of bz yet"

now i get to watch an animated penguin flop his way across the loading bar

my brain: we dont need more kyanite we have plenty at base
also my brain: oooooh so shiny me want shiny blue

i tried going through base hatch and out, docked prawn in and out and i am still stuck walking on sebed

i would liek to thank the devs for giving me infinite oxygen

wait i think i know what caused this to happen

[graceful temple]

Does anyone know what’s in the room that ||margs pet is blocking in her seabase||

[fathom hatch]

i basically entered the ||alien sancturary|| and it turned off the water so when i went in i went into walking like above the sea so when i exited, i entered my prawn that was close to the exit instead of going through the ||water airlock|| thing

and now the beacon vanished because "muh lore" so now i need to endlessly wander around

[eternal garnet]

come back after you have seen her greenhouse. Inside you can scan bathroom stuff and a stove only

[fathom hatch]

I think i remember that in my old save, can confirm

[graceful temple]

That’s where the toilet is

[fathom hatch]

priorities

[graceful temple]

My priority’s now are 1 toilet 2 the actually story line

[stone elm]

so could someone explain to me the uses of the large room partition?

[crude kite]

there's also a glitchy poster

keeps an area safe

but they're expensive just build small bases

literally just a tube should do the trick

the ice worm dodges them

magnetite is actually a fair bit hard to find

yeah but it's 2 titanium for a tube

and you'll need a lot of magnetite a fair bit later on

[stone elm]

god the scanner room map is litterally useless

[eternal garnet]

you do want the HUD chip

[stone elm]

no I get that

I juts mean the map in the room itself is useless

in terms of you can't even use it to look for caves

[carmine bobcat]

I am once again asking for silver

[stone elm]

you have the prawn drill?

[carmine bobcat]

Nope

[stone elm]

then oof

once you get that its pretty easy to get abundant silver

[graceful temple]

I wish there was a seatruck module that has nothing in it so u can add stuff into it like the cyclops

Like coffee machine

[carmine bobcat]

Exactly

Beating the game with a seatruck as a base

[carmine bobcat]

Go to the ||phi robotics island||

[graceful temple]

Or koppa mine with a drill arm cuz there’s a deposit or 2 down there

[stone elm]

so like

I was hoping I could use the delta docks as a base location

but there is litterally no way to make it functional 😦

[velvet karma]

who would you want a base there anyway

[stone elm]

woops forgot the caps filter

because the docks are non-functioning

[velvet karma]

huh?

[stone elm]

they're horrible at being an actual dock

[velvet karma]

ohhh

[stone elm]

I wanted to make an moonpool in the gap

or even just a base entrance between the 'docks' that leads to a moonpool just out in the water

instead I discovered you can get locked into this corner https://i.imgur.com/7kzEWYZ.jpeg

I've still yet to find a use for large room partitions

[gaunt wing]

so i got a 27" monitor and

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[crude kite]

what's wrong here

[gaunt wing]

there's nothing wrong

i'm just saying that i got a 27" monitor

[stone elm]

theres something wrong with large room partitions 😠

[velvet karma]

why the picture though, we can't tell how big the monitor is from that

[restive yoke]

omg Is salad the best food in the game?

its so op

[stone elm]

think so yeah

[crude kite]

yeah best food

I have an army of hot peppers and preston plants at my glacial bay base

try saying that 10 times faster

[restive yoke]

regenerates more lives than bandages :D

[gaunt wing]

oh i thought you could

my pda just went "seek fluid intake" but i have no water

[shell arrow]

let me guess

[gaunt wing]

[shell arrow]

all of the bladderfish said adios

[restive yoke]

IMMEDIATELY

[gaunt wing]

Seek fluid intake I M M E D I A T E L Y .

[shell arrow]

the ||shadow levithan is at kyanite|| right?

[gaunt wing]

in other words: you should probably drink something g

[gaunt wing]

yeah it's in the ||crystal caves||

[shell arrow]

k

[gaunt wing]

i was searching for the ||prawn pilot's base ||and i found the ||mercury 2 bow|| lol

helo fren

[restive yoke]

my bad

where are the crystale caves?ın which biom?

[gaunt wing]

whenever i see a sea monkey i get a strong urge to just say "you're my friend now. we're having soft tacos later"

[carmine bobcat]

@restive yoke have you found ||the pilots base||

[gaunt wing]

well i guess i'm gonna die of dehydration

[restive yoke]

use cheat!

[carmine bobcat]

Cooked bladderfish? You deserve it

[restive yoke]

the last pilot location?

[gaunt wing]

A squidshark just charged at me while I was outside my prawn suit

scary

[carmine bobcat]

It's very easy to get when you find that base

[delicate fossil]

Better get back to base

[carmine bobcat]

I was playing subnautica zero for 5 hours and forgot to save my world, I just pressed exit. Is there a way to get my progress back?

[delicate fossil]

@gaunt wing you should try to get the stillsuit

[restive yoke]

oh thnx

[delicate fossil]

I was talking about Danish

Idk what you are doing

[carmine bobcat]

any ideas if bz is coming to xbox game pass?

[delicate fossil]

That's a question for xbox

[carmine bobcat]

😆

[delicate fossil]

If they want to do it

[gaunt wing]

i found some gel sacks and swallowed them whole

[delicate fossil]

Nice

[gaunt wing]

ayyyyy!

this is it

[eternal garnet]

yes yes, but stop image posting now

[gaunt wing]

as you wish

i'm dying from dehydration help

[shell arrow]

is this a normal glitch?

[shut agate]

How do you mark spoiler

[shut agate]

Is it possible on mobile

[gaunt wing]

it is

i died and lost pretty much all of my belongings

[shut agate]

How do you make a message spoiler

[gaunt wing]

great, f'ing great

[shut agate]

Because I want to ask something

But it’s spoilers

[eternal garnet]

mark the text, click the eye

[gaunt wing]

write the message, select and and click mark as spoiler

[shut agate]

Mobile

[shell arrow]

i found a bug

[shut agate]

Oh I found it

Ok so I have a question and am worried I missed a major plot point

||I beat the game and never found out what happened to Sam and google said there’s something about a frozen leviathan I never encountered||

[crude kite]

There isn't too much just a bit more of ||Sam's story|| which gives you about 2 achievements

[gaunt wing]

yeah uhhh there's a ||frozen leviathan site ||somewhere

[shut agate]

How do I get there

Because I want the last 2 achievements and it’s kinda unsatisfying how I never knew what happened to her

[crude kite]

explore, it's not at arctic spires i'll tell you that much

best have that snowfox

[shut agate]

Some PDA’s gave me hints

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah, the game kinda expects you to find the bases that are on the map you can find in delta base, I explored them late game it was kinda obvious I was meant to do them earlier

[crude kite]

it's in the glacial bay near phi

[shut agate]

Oh ur right the map exists

So check the map?

[carmine bobcat]

Basically

[lime moat]

guys, which game, Subnautica or Subnautica: Below Zero, has a better story in your opinion?

[eternal garnet]

"yes"

[shut agate]

Story? BZ easily

[gaunt wing]

which game has a better story?

yes.

[carmine bobcat]

Everything but the map is better imo

[shut agate]

The original had like no focus on story compared to the second

The sequel has characters with their own little stories combined with more information about questions with the original

[lime moat]

yeah good point, the ending in BZ was awesome

[shut agate]

Ending was so satisfying

Did not disappoint, makes the oroiginal ending seem so lacking

The gameplay of both games are incredible but the story is just easily better in BZ

plus so many questions were answered

[lime moat]

yeahhh

[shut agate]

And diolouge definitely strengthens it

[gaunt wing]

i forgot do i go right or left here? [on delta station island, to get to the radio tower]

[eternal garnet]

prob. right. Inside tunnel

[green charm]

Anyone have any tips to progress faster I lost the first four hours of game progress and I need to start over (no spoilers please)

[umbral harbor]

just trying to double check the PDAs I've picked up and if I'm missing any, how many of them can you find in the Arctic Spires? (tried to look at the wiki and compare but not sure which ones are out of date and which are current)

[carmine bobcat]

I was playing subnautica zero for 5 hours and forgot to save my world, I just pressed exit. Is there a way to get my progress back?

[sterile shadow]

1. Use a scanner room to find materials instead of finding them manually
2. Get Seatruck fragments in the Twisty Bridges ASAP
3. Do ||Marguerit's|| storyline ASAP
4. Get ||ALAN|| ASAP
5. Get oxygen tank upgrades ASAP

[carmine bobcat]

Unfortunately no

[eternal garnet]

seek fluid intake ASAP

[sterile shadow]

Obviously it's not a race, but that'll help you get in a good place (doing it sooner rather than later).

[green charm]

Thanks

[carmine bobcat]

ok, ty anyways

[sterile shadow]

IMO you should backup your save file regularly. To do that, you find where the files are saved on your computer and copy it over to another place on your PC.

[stone elm]

That's one of my gripes with the game

At no point does it become obvious it'd time to explore land

[velvet karma]

idk why everybody likes the scanner room so much, I never made one and have more than enough resources to the point I never actually have to go out and hunt for them.

[stone elm]

Like yeah you get the Snowfox part from the old lady but eith it only being 1/3 nothing scream "go explore land now"

[sterile shadow]

I agree there should be more clear indications for progression, but I would say it's a good time to explore places you haven't explored when you've run out of things to explore 🤷‍♂️

[stone elm]

Lead

[stone elm]

I mean did that. And kept going down, and down and down

[sterile shadow]

Make one brah. You'll understand. Saves you time

[stone elm]

Because between oxygen plants and depth modules there very little you cant explore without going on land

[velvet karma]

As I said, I've never run out of resources and so I don't see why I should make one.

Like what would you need.

[stone elm]

Lead

And uh, lead

Oh and lead

[sterile shadow]

Unfortunately Below Zero is a bit different than the first game in that respect. It's more horizontal than vertical. In the first game, you progress by going downwards. In this one, it's more about exploring the different biomes.

[stone elm]

No it absolutely isnt?

[velvet karma]

I have enough of that for now, you can find like a whole inventory of lead in the thermal spires in 3 seconds.

[stone elm]

Bs is pathetically sma horizontally

And you're able to get sub 400 without any depth modules

Like you cross below zeros map in no time

[sterile shadow]

Yes, it's smaller horizontally (and vertically). But I don't think you're getting my point (that's not what I'm talking about).

[velvet karma]

Also what do you need lead for late game anyways, unless you need a lot for a body part or smth

[lime moat]

the going downwards aspect is way better than the horizontal one,

[stone elm]

I mean everything uses lead just about

[velvet karma]

Not really...

[stone elm]

Honestly horistonally the map is horrible

Biomes are not distinct enough

Meanwhile like 5 biomes are in cave systems that look like any other caves

[velvet karma]

Lead has 14 recipes.
Silver has 22.
Idk what ya'll are talking about.

[stone elm]

Silver also has large nodes

[velvet karma]

Copper has 23

[stone elm]

Copper also has large nodes

So does diamond

[velvet karma]

Diamond does?

[stone elm]

Like the hardest part of getting enameled Glass is the lead

Yup. Of all the primary metals you use. Lead is the only one without a large node

[carmine bobcat]

I really hope they improve the first one with stuff from below zero

[stone elm]

Even gold/ruby have them

[velvet karma]

You need 29 lead to make everything in the game.

Thats not that much.

And thats everything

[stone elm]

enameled glass

[carmine bobcat]

You have a list?

[velvet karma]

Oh, let me redo ma math.

[sterile shadow]

it says on the wiki

[short tangle]

Kinda

[sterile shadow]

looks like, flayer

[velvet karma]

Ok it takes 44 lead to make everything.

[sterile shadow]

math fail

[velvet karma]

Probably.

What is it?

[short tangle]

iirc, shadow leviatan is based on a knifefish

[stone elm]

Assuming you don't any base building yes you only use 44

[velvet karma]

I was counting glass domes and stuff...

[stone elm]

1 of each room does not make a fun base

And 44 is still a lot

[velvet karma]

Fine.

[stone elm]

Since that's 88 outcrops

[velvet karma]

Your telling me you make a base with more than one large glass dome room? Dang thats a big base.

[stone elm]

Still even if you make one of everything

That's eighty eight outcrops you have to click on

[velvet karma]

Ya'll are lazy.

[stone elm]

Multiple times if you sont feel like swapping off the seaglide

But still having to break 88 outcrops is pathetic compred to literally any other magerial

Where it's either just lying around or has large outcrops

[sterile shadow]

Moral of the story: Scanner Room

[velvet karma]

I would never.

[sterile shadow]

Suit yourself, my d00d

[velvet karma]

Huh

[carmine bobcat]

If you have a beacon, I'd say the control room isn't worth it

[sterile shadow]

well you can color you base for added swag and see how much power pieces of your base take up. i would say its not that important tho.

[velvet karma]

I don't even know what the control room does.

I only have one base atm so I dont need it

[sterile shadow]

i like building 1 of everything so 🤷‍♂️

[velvet karma]

?

[sterile shadow]

i like building 1 of everything. 1 of each module, a locker for each resource, every prawn arm, etc. so that's why I built a control room.

[lean notch]

Why can't we build mini phase gates :(

Between bases

[carmine bobcat]

I love the game but the rendering is bad, that'd break the game

[sterile shadow]

best ur gonna get is the telepoortation module for the seatruck 😦

[median jay]

what is a good place to put a base?

[lean notch]

Void

[sterile shadow]

IMO the thermal spires is one of the best places. It's central on the map, so traveling to any biome won't take that long. It has a lot of resources. It also has heat sources so that you can use thermal plants for power.

[velvet karma]

I like the twisty bridges the most for their asthetic

and because its central enough

[sterile shadow]

Yeah, if you like a certain biome, go ahead and build a base there. No need to find the ULTIMATE spot.

[velvet karma]

WHY NOT i want to find the ULTIMATE SPOT

[sterile shadow]

Follow ur ❤️

[lean notch]

Just put it between the Bridges and spirals then

[carmine bobcat]

All the homies hate Emmanuel

[green charm]

No idea who that is

[sterile shadow]

He's part of the lore. You can find his office on Delta Island.

[median jay]

how do i get to it?

[graceful temple]

I got 32”

[carmine bobcat]

Omg I've found gold galore

Wtf

Uhhhhh

[graceful temple]

Oh no

How

[carmine bobcat]

Scanner room

[graceful temple]

I mean how is there so much table coral

[carmine bobcat]

Aso this

Not as much though

[carmine bobcat]

Lily pad zone

[graceful temple]

I’ve never seen any table coral in lily pads

[lean notch]

never looked for them

[gaunt wing]

boohoo cries i don't care

[graceful temple]

Hehe

[lean notch]

i have 24 :

[mystic wharf]

see these panels in the distance? there are 30 of them, and 8 underwater.

I cannot say how long I've been grinding for them, and yet

[graceful temple]

I may have a 32” but I only got one monitor

[lean notch]

only got one too

[graceful temple]

But sometimes I hate the big monitor cuz using drawing tablets for it suck

But for bz it’s

[mystic wharf]

water filtration machines consume WAY too much energy; I've only got 3 of them

[lean notch]

drawing bleh

[eternal garnet]

they draw less if you don't empty them all the time

[lean notch]

duh

[mystic wharf]

yeah but they stop working when they're full

and I need water all the time

[graceful temple]

I’ve tryed putting a water filtration in a land base and somehow it’s getting water but so so slowly where is the water coming from

[eternal garnet]

and they stop drawing power

[carmine bobcat]

Look at all the gold outcrops

[eternal garnet]

there's always water in the air

[graceful temple]

Oh I’m stupid

[mystic wharf]

no you're not

water in the air, imagine how long it will take to fill up one bottle

if it's not raining that is

[graceful temple]

There’s also 2-3 diamonds in that gold place from a pengling research thing

[lean notch]

yeah but like its on a vertical panel and t has like one tiiny hole for the water

how is it getting water from air

[carmine bobcat]

Snow

[graceful temple]

Moisture

[lean notch]

iits sucking snow into one tiny hole

[graceful temple]

It’s sucking all the moisture

[lean notch]

so does it take like one year

to fill up one bottle

[graceful temple]

Yes it does I know that from experience

[lean notch]

why build a base on land tho

[graceful temple]

Why not

[lean notch]

because theres more stuff underwatert

• moonpools

[graceful temple]

But what if you make it right by delta station dock so it’s a 2second walk to the ocean and put a moonpool in the water and have it use a seperate power supply cuz u don’t need that much for a moonpool

[lean notch]

land is uglu tho

[sterile shadow]

ew, land

[broken badge]

Snow pwetty

[median jay]

how do i get down there? i couldnt find a pathway to it.

[ornate plume]

go down the ravine

[lean notch]

Use seaglide hologram

Find a thing that goes down

[median jay]

thx

[wanton slate]

just brute force it

you'll find it eventually

[ornate plume]

go until you find a small trench, then go down it and get to the end, follow the ||architect|| lights

[ornate plume]

his seatruck doesnt have depth module mk2

[wanton slate]

make it then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ornate plume]

two questions.
1: can i find lead in the ||deep lilies||?
2: if so, where? if not, where is the closest biome to lead?

[median jay]

how do i even use the hologram tho? i never understood it

[ornate plume]

look for holes

and if the blue gets deeper towards the hole you're in the right area

[flat gull]

There are, i found all the lead i need in the shallows though

[ornate plume]

in galena or big lead?

[flat gull]

there is no large deposits for lead

[ornate plume]

yeah? i saw one in the ||crystal caves||

but is the galena on the walls? in the deep part ||of deep lilies||? on the ground?

[median jay]

thx i made it

[flat gull]

Never saw a large lead deposit. There are boatloads of galena in the shallows. Nowadays i am flabbergasted how much there is. I used to struggle myself. I would suggest a scanner room in the shallows

[ornate plume]

np

[ornate plume]

im not going a kilometer to the shallows just for lead, i live in deep ||lilypads||

and i rarely find lead there anyways, any other biome?

[bold monolith]

No galena in Deep Lilypads, but probably a lot in Lilypads.

On the islands.

[ornate plume]

big lead?

[bold monolith]

There is no drillable lead at all, as said.

[median jay]

what is the importance of this place?

[ornate plume]

scan the skeleton

[median jay]

wont let me

[ornate plume]

.

[eternal garnet]

"it is a place for reflection"

[median jay]

lemme try a different angle ig

[ornate plume]

required to beat the game my guy

[eternal garnet]

or you did, already. check pda recipes, bottom

[median jay]

oh it wanted me to scan the part in front of it lmao

[opaque monolith]

Umm

[carmine bobcat]

?

Is the bio reactor any good or nah

[rigid sierra]

Where is Marguerit's greenhouse?

[stone elm]

If you're on delta, go straight east

And its one of the last ones with a cave

[eternal garnet]

1200m from the delta beacon

[rigid sierra]

Where is this cave?

[median jay]

how do i get to this one? i can find no way to get to it, no ravine or pathways or anything.

[eternal garnet]

you aren't even close

so I can't tell which oen

[median jay]

yes very. i just use the creepvine or whatever its called

[median jay]

its above the thermal spires idk how to get to it

[carmine bobcat]

I remember that being really awkward, are you close to the ||pilots position|| because I think you might have to go through that cave but I'm not sure

[sterile shadow]

||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKWCN1Kitkg||
Guide: How to find all of the Alien Artifacts

[eternal garnet]

ah yes. that's in the mine, which is south west of island, not far

[mystic wharf]

well f*, I'm out of storage again

[umbral harbor]

if I'm reading the wiki correctly, when it comes to the PDA entry for ||Snowstalker adults and juveniles||, do they both give the same data once scanned?

[stone elm]

so like

when do y'all reccomend doing the struggle to walk on land

[carmine bobcat]

Anytime, but do you have a pengwing robot?

It's worth getting the cold suit, you don't need it but it's a lot less stressful

[eternal garnet]

And one flare, on your toolbar

[mystic wharf]

guys, there are only 3 prawn fragments at ||mining site||, right?

[eternal garnet]

I believe there's more

[mystic wharf]

I only got 3 last time I went there

I just need one more ;-;

[eternal garnet]

wrecks, too. and zero base

[fathom hatch]

Alright gamers i posted my bug in #🐞bug-smash (MAJOR SPOILERS), hopefully it gets fixed so i dont have to live in this nightmare of a save file lol

[fathom hatch]

pls spoiler that ;-;

[carmine bobcat]

Does the horse power upgrade stack

[eternal garnet]

no

[carmine bobcat]

Guess we're maxxed out at 18mph

[vocal dew]

Does the prawn still have its voice or no?

[median jay]

i think there is some limestone in my area

[maiden star]

kkkkkkkkk

[true venture]

|| I think that one is in the koopa mining site||

[median jay]

thx. i just got to that mining site too to check out some stuff. i'll explore it some more

[rigid sierra]

What i have to do after Marguerit's greenhouse?

[carmine bobcat]

Basically find all artifacts, visit all sites from the map and if you're still stuck Google where to find certain ||body parts||.

I had to Google because I visited every beacon but I still didn't have all blueprints for the body unlocked

[rigid sierra]

Thanks

[honest herald]

my sea truck bugged out, and its stranded on land and on its side

i managed to get into the cockpit and grab the pilot stick

cant i unstick it somehow ? im on the pc version

[eternal garnet]

propulsion cannon maybe. 'Load a save?

[restive yoke]

where are the crystal caves????

[stone elm]

right next to old lady base

[restive yoke]

oh

[eternal garnet]

two entrances: ||maidas base, and purple vents under the smallest wreck||

put a beacon

[stone elm]

like so close I accidentally entered it

[restive yoke]

i got it hnx

[carmine bobcat]

oh boy why is the debug area still accessible? Idk I got there with some floor stacking and then I were there I have Tried to interact with something on there but nothing worked. Seems like the debug area is still there but not fully there

[burnt crow]

How am I meant to get more stalker fur? I have murders so many innocent stalkers and yet

[fathom hatch]

Ah yes that is why i take so long to load @carmine bobcat

[eternal garnet]

obv. try another way

[bold monolith]

Are you in creative?

[burnt crow]

Tis not helpful! I only know murder

[eternal garnet]

ok.|| spy pengling||

[burnt crow]

Oooooh that makes, not much sense but I'll try it

I got that a little while ago, but I haven't made it yet

[eternal garnet]

yeah well

[carmine bobcat]

yea I cant get that much resources in survival

I think

[bold monolith]

That's probably the reason the ice worm debug area doesn't work.

[carmine bobcat]

oh now they work when I set myself to survival via Console

[lean notch]

||they're in caves||

[eternal garnet]

there is some, but hard to find

[lean notch]

Meh I found like 10 caves with tons of fur

You only need like 4 anyways

[burnt crow]

Ah, I will have to look around for some more caves, my first time through there was kinda speedy cuz I didn't bring any flasks with me so I was dying via cold as hell every 5 seconds, those plants in the caves were helpful though

[lean notch]

Do you have prawn suit

[burnt crow]

Only just got it

I went through the game pretty backwards lmao

[lean notch]

You can use that

To not die from the cold

[burnt crow]

Ohhh yeah that does make sense

[eternal garnet]

the bike also heats you

but the worm does not like the bike

[lean notch]

It's probably faster tho

[burnt crow]

Man when I first started to go over there I was mad scared cuz I hadn't been that way before and those scary a$$ eye jellyfish things were floating around where I was tryna get in

[lean notch]

Well actually there's some weird thing where you accelerate super quick when you jump on land and walk forward at the same time

With prawn

[carmine bobcat]

why are the objets for the cyclops in the game and a item for the aurora but a not the aurora nor the cyclops but there is a "Placeholder" version of the seamoth?

[burnt crow]

Probably started with the seamoth and then realised they wanted to use something different

Probably didn't get round to taking them out the game when they realised they weren't gunna use em

[eternal garnet]

may be related to asset file sizes

seamoth has no textures

[carmine bobcat]

Probaly how I saw it there are the cyclops and a old vehicle station that are got removed in the early access but still the cyclops build things are there

[carmine bobcat]

and its name is "Placeholder" I cant show because no one woud understand because it will be on german

[stone forum]

[limber token]

Where should I build my base?

[carmine bobcat]

and there are still the trigger events for the aurora and the explode of the cyclops in the code and the dev commands (just saying stuff that probably everyone on this server already knew)

[limber token]

I built mine right by my lifepod in the first gameb but I wanna do something else

[carmine bobcat]

in a Deep hole

[burnt crow]

Same here, I don't think I have the heart to move out, I might put mine in the lily pad biome if I were to live anywhere though

[limber token]

I found a pretty area in the twisty bridges halfway between my lifepod-replacement and ||delta station|| but idk if I want it there

[burnt crow]

Nice and safe down there, only got like one threat and they back off when you stab em

[limber token]

It’s also by creepvine

Ah yeah, Lily pads might be nice too

[burnt crow]

Got those glow whales in it

[limber token]

I’m worried about the moon pool tho

I had easy access in the first game in the safe shallows

So I don’t wanna make it more annoying to get to

[leaden hearth]

oooohhh crap

the crystal caverns are a real place

[burnt crow]

Yep, scary as hell too

[leaden hearth]

and very deadly lol

[burnt crow]

Should be fine and easy to get to in the lily pad biome, you only need the first upgrade for most things to get them on the bottom on the biome

[burnt crow]

I supremely do not wish to go down there

[limber token]

Yeah i need a crush module to ||follow that lady in the prawn||

Which also means I need diamonds which idk where they are (but don’t tell me)

[leaden hearth]

man i dk about yall but lillypads zone was terrifying to me lol

[burnt crow]

I only just got my crush 2 a while ago

[limber token]

I wish I could just get enameled glass by feeding stalkers

[burnt crow]

Same for me for the first time, I was scared as hell mainly cuz it's so close to the worlds edge

[burnt crow]

I miss the stalkers

[leaden hearth]

yeah i dont like the enameled glass ingredients

and its so dark in there. and got the glow whales screaming at you

[burnt crow]

Diamonds are easy enough to find though, I have diamonds coming out me a&&

[burnt crow]

At first I thought the flow whales were gunna kill me lmao

[limber token]

I might just build higher in the twisty bridges

Might not use foundation

So I can build lower if I want

[burnt crow]

I never use foundation lmao

[leaden hearth]

i built a base at the surface by the extrerior grow beds between deep twisty bridges and the mountain

[limber token]

If the hull reinforcement is the same then I should be fine with that

Just get some lithium and slap it where I don’t have windows

[burnt crow]

Adds +7

[limber token]

Nice, so it’s the same

[burnt crow]

I put mine really god damn close to where everything is so it's really hard to expand it but at the same time I don't have the heart to move

[burnt crow]

Yeah, only need a few to keep your base from becoming a aquarium

[honest herald]

I'm stuck in the story mode, can someone point me on how to proceed ? ||Kharaa wise, I found the frozen Leviathan and cured it. I got the 'epilogiue' about Sam (though no reaction to her being dead in the first place, which seems super weird), and I guess that's it for this story arc ? I'm not sure where all the characters from Alterra actually went. Architect wise, I have the recipes for the new vessel, and I searched and scanned a bunch of sites (N6M, PK8, Q59, LF0, X3J, Z13). Nothing new from Al-An for quite a while. No idea what to do next.||

[broken badge]

Sorry the pic is so blue, it’s on PS4 so I took it with my phone but I found this nice sloping place with lots of room, must be about 300-400m away from spawn (since spawn spots vary a bit)

Now I make big rooms earlier tho

[latent brook]

where do i find young cotton anemone?

[burnt crow]

Looks very nice

[leaden hearth]

sorry twisti i never did any of that stuiff

uh in the mushrooms place i think

the giant mushrooms? or in the crystal caves?

[broken badge]

Can’t see it well but there’s kelp forest on the other side

[burnt crow]

I'm pretty sure in the deep lily pad biome, no idea though, just looks like the right place

Mad glowy

[eternal garnet]

Alterra shut operations down after two died, and because they were terrorized

[latent brook]

alright ill try that, thanks

[broken badge]

Deep in the lillypads

[burnt crow]

Ayyyy I was right

[broken badge]

Thx

[eternal garnet]

You need to find the fab site. it's deeeeeep

[burnt crow]

My base is some weird tetris mess cuz I put it right next to my life pod

[uneven heart]

same

[honest herald]

@eternal garnet what points me there ? surely im not supposed to just aimlessly swim around the map until i randomly find it ? did i miss a hint from a-lan ?

[rigid sierra]

How to find "Sanctuary Zero"?

[broken badge]

Yeah there’s a lot of obstructions I found when trying to build near the pod

[leaden hearth]

you have to find enough precursor facilities then alan tells you about it ebentually @honest herald

[eternal garnet]

no specifics are given. I can tell you it's ||in the deepest parts of crystals||

[honest herald]

@leaden hearth i scanned all the ones he told me about, he stopped giving me more beacons

[sterile shadow]

its down in the Twisty Bridges

[broken badge]

Use the map you scan on the wall at Delta as a general guide that’s what I do

[burnt crow]

You gotta find the deepest holes you can still fit in and just go down them, crystal caves are your best bet I think

[leaden hearth]

twisti did you also do all the stuff in the frozen zone with the iceworm?

[honest herald]

i ran into ice worms, but they didnt really bother me and idk what they were for, didnt seem to be relevant to anything

[broken badge]

Oh I figured they meant Outpost Zero. Never heard of a Sanctuary Zero

[eternal garnet]

Do you mean sanctuary (alien storage cube) or zero base?

[leaden hearth]

theres a massive area to explore and alien artifacts to find, thats part of progressign alans story @honest herald

[honest herald]

im not even sure where the worms are, i only saw them once at night, never found them again

[broken badge]

Please don’t bypass the swear filter

[burnt crow]

Ooooo nice

[honest herald]

how do i get to the ice worm area ?

[burnt crow]

My base integrity could but my lithium wallets could never

[broken badge]

Conference room xD

[burnt crow]

With great difficulty

That place in a maze honestly

[leaden hearth]

nope, that is the nuclear reactor room XD

[burnt crow]

It's a wonder I found my way out of there before I froze to death

[leaden hearth]

yeah twisti im sorry i cant believe i even found my way around there, you need prawn suit and many power cells

[broken badge]

I just meant with the desks

[honest herald]

@burnt crow well, where do i start ? delta ? glacier basin ?

[leaden hearth]

yeah the desks are for monitoring and stuff :D

[rigid sierra]

Check pm

[eternal garnet]

First, check if you have 3 body recipes. Bottom of pda

[honest herald]

Okay thanks

[broken badge]

I wish we could take the equipment like in the original

[honest herald]

@eternal garnet i do but i cant craft them anywhere, im guessing thats part of the story

[sterile shadow]

sorry. ice worm area = glacial basin, specifically across the bridge there

[broken badge]

But they did add lots of new cool things

[leaden hearth]

yeah some things in bz are kinda dumb like finding windows

[broken badge]

And lots more posters!

[leaden hearth]

the hang in there poster in this one is great XD

[burnt crow]

I've been stealing so many posters

My inventory just get filled with them everytime I go to a new base

[leaden hearth]

i oput my hang in there poster next to my fabricator

[broken badge]

Once I realized that little tube place with the rebreather I think it is & builder tool has a scannable window I was so happy😂

[burnt crow]

I got them all over my walls

[broken badge]

I missed that little detail first time thru

[leaden hearth]

there are only 2 places to find the window

[burnt crow]

I have no idea how I'm meant to cure that fat rat of a levi but then again I haven't even followed uhhhhh what's her name down to here I last saw her

[burnt crow]

When i realised I had to scan the window I went buck wild cuz I had no idea, I thought I just got it with the building set

[eternal garnet]

I am repeating then: ||deepest part of crystals. It's at 960m. Go east when you reach 500m||

[eternal garnet]

Bring all ingredients

[burnt crow]

Damn that's pretty deep

[fathom hatch]

guys i fixed the walk glitch!! all i had to do was exit the ||sancturary|| by swimming instead of hopping inside my prawn outside

Ayyyy nice!

Though now I wanna try the glitch out

Sounds fun

Same lmao

I found everywhere else before I found it

[steep spindle]

Out of curiosity
Is there any sorta alternate ending where you finish the storyline with Sam without ever meeting Al-An? Can you just escape and go back to normal life having done what you set out to do?

[burnt crow]

If you just don't go to the place al-an gets into your head then yeah I think so

I almost went most of the game without finding him

Like a good majority of the game

Even found most of the alien things

[steep spindle]

Is there an actual ending tho?
Or does the game just stagnate from then on and you're left to wander until you find him?

[north maple]

its an ending

[eternal garnet]

there's an ending. Only one

[sterile shadow]

theres only 1 ending squid, the one you just said

[north maple]

if u excuse me i have to go seek flued intake

[burnt crow]

Nah not an actual ending, just the same ending but you don't have big man in your head

[steep spindle]

Rip

[eternal garnet]

it's a literal ending. Roll credits.

[north maple]

yea theres an ending

[eternal garnet]

but you can save before it, and keep building

[north maple]

what happends if u dont save

[eternal garnet]

you never save?

[north maple]

right

[eternal garnet]

game does not autosave, ever

hence, you save 4 times an hour, or have a really bad time

[sage shoal]

is it a bad idea to take my PRAWN into the ||area with all the ice worms i dont remember the name lol||

[north maple]

good idea i cant remember last time i saved

[eternal garnet]

the end has a point of no return. it's super obvious when. You can't save after it

[eternal garnet]

no that works

[sage shoal]

they wont like 2-shot my PRAWN?

[eternal garnet]

no

[latent brook]

wheres a good early game place to build a base besides the shallows?

[sage shoal]

alright cool

[eternal garnet]

but repair immediately, as attacks have a cooldown

[sterile shadow]

thermal spires near a heat source

[latent brook]

where do i get thermoreactor

[sage shoal]

last time i took my exosuit into the ||ice worm area|| it was before they were even able to attack the prawn lol

[broken badge]

Thermal plant?

[burnt crow]

I learned that the hard way after losing 2 hours of progress to my game crashing

[broken badge]

Koppa mines for thermal plant

The fissure is basically the area under (close to) Marg’s base in lillypads iirc

[carmine bobcat]

why is there a head but there isnt actually a head?

[burnt crow]

The deep twistys is fun but you might get a little powned by a few things

[burnt crow]

So no head?

[eternal garnet]

you never see that without using commands

[north maple]

why u show me this

[broken badge]

You’re in free cam and the head is where the camera is

[north maple]

i wont be able to sleep tonight

[eternal garnet]

so her head comes off. Nice

[carmine bobcat]

but then the shadow is wrong

[latent brook]

what website are you using? is it the wiki?

[sterile shadow]

yes, it is

[latent brook]

alright cool

[sterile shadow]

i just searched up "thermal plant"

[broken badge]

I’m guessing they code in the shadow separately

It’s the same way in Subnautica

[carmine bobcat]

And I guess that there are two models and the other one is invisible but not invisible to make the shadow also invisible for the player and the other one without the head so the camera isnt blocked by any head

[deep kettle]

The head is invisible generally speaking in first person games because otherwise it would probably clip with the camera.

[eternal garnet]

that makes so much sense

[deep kettle]

But they keep the shadow of the head to not make it look weird when you look at the shadow.

[broken badge]

You wouldn’t want to see a headless shadow lol

But you don’t look at your own head, or even see much of your own body in first person games

Arms & maybe portions of lower extremities

[carmine bobcat]

but there is anywhere the original head mesh but without texture I gues I need to find it.. lol I guess it will have no textures

[broken badge]

I know in the original people have looked at Ryley using a scan camera iirc

[carmine bobcat]

but why does she then have a as a back and etc fully modeled

[bold monolith]

Spy pengling anyone?

[deep kettle]

Robin also has a head, that's not the problem.

[broken badge]

You can look at yourself using spy pengling selfies xD

Postcards xD

[carmine bobcat]

hmm ok

[broken badge]

Robin will do poses😛

[carmine bobcat]

its just not there if you play so that the camera doesnt clip with head or somthing

[broken badge]

It’s a free cam thing I think

[carmine bobcat]

But if you play the game the head woud clip if there is a Head

if you do a spy pengling selfie then you arent in first person so you can have a head that isnt blocking the camera

[broken badge]

What I meant is. You don’t notice it until you’re doing free cam

[deep kettle]

For anyone who wants to have nightmares tonight, this is what happens when her head is rendered when controlling the character. I don't think anyone would like to play like this? 😛

[carmine bobcat]

that why I ment with "Then the camera woud clip"

[carmine bobcat]

that doesn't look that bad

[deep kettle]

Correct, hence why only the shadow is rendered and when you use the spy pengling or camera drones the heads get rendered again.

[broken badge]

Oh dear Thom that’s just downright cursed

[deep kettle]

But no one would like to play like that would you? 😆

[broken badge]

I remember in Skyrim you could move around the character in 3rd person & phase thru their skull & eye sockets etc👀

[carmine bobcat]

so it wouldn't really bother me as long as the camera is right in the middle of the head, so you could get used to it.

[deep kettle]

It's not right in the middle, the camera moves into different positions. So it acts really weird in certain cases. Like I said this is not how you would want to play lol.

[carmine bobcat]

hmm ok True then I woud not play but still you could get used to it

[broken badge]

Someone posted the ending the other day and they must’ve gone into camera mode & it was just ||Alan & a headless Robin at the phasegate||👀 Literally just her body with a fleshy stump on top😳

[deep kettle]

The magic of games when you only have to make it look right in cinematics where the camera is actually looking at 😄

[carmine bobcat]

there was this one game named "Flix Bus Simulator" there you could see the hair and in certain moments the eyes and the mouth but that was way back in the early days of the game

[broken badge]

A lot of the magic of games is subterfuge & we also allow our suspension of disbelief. Like how skyboxes are fictitious lol😂
Remember Astroneer Thom

[carmine bobcat]

the 🤔 reaction before it got deleted lol

[carmine bobcat]

I didn't delete it

[deep kettle]

A lot of things in games are generally faked, making things work in a real way is nearly impossible and way too performance intensive 😛
Things as skyboxes are a perfect example of that yes.

[broken badge]

This isn’t the place for memes & such we have #memes-and-media

[carmine bobcat]

Found it on Reddit anyway

[broken badge]

Although we don’t want some things spoiled in memes, not yet anyway

[latent brook]

do i need a power transmitter in order for the thermal plant to work

[carmine bobcat]

the skybox is just a sky box 6 walls of a texture hmm
