Your PC's survival chance has just increased to unlikely but plausible

[olive plank]

lmao

[twin stone]

i love this emoji

[lean notch]

Uglu.

[olive plank]

:maaad

[eternal garnet]

cheap psu's are a danger to your components. Not sure the suspect was a psu though

[olive plank]

i love this one

[lean notch]

Yes Sus psu

[twin stone]

They are, but see i didn't know when i bought it 2+ years ago

[eternal garnet]

exact model? I can look up danger levels

[lean notch]

Does it even have a brand 👁️ 👄 👁️

[twin stone]

i mean i have a rosewill 750w which is slightly better but still not good

[twin stone]

Thermaltake Smart RGB

[twin stone]

yes, I'm not THAT idiotic

[lean notch]

Wish psu

5$

[twin stone]

It's garbage trust m

Only reason I bought it was because it was $50 new

[lean notch]

300$ shipping costs

[stoic cargo]

EVGA SuperNova is good

[twin stone]

Not all

[lean notch]

Idek which psu i have anymore

[eternal garnet]

It's tier D, not recommended for driving a GPU

[twin stone]

Shh i already knew that

[eternal garnet]

alright. off topic anyway

[lean notch]

Oh ye seasonic something

[eternal garnet]

potentially good

[lean notch]

It's finee

[twin stone]

tbh brand doesn't mean anything if it's a budget one

[eternal garnet]

yeah model matters.

[twin stone]

anyhow what's the largest base y'all have built

[olive plank]

probably the playthrough im doing right now

[stoic cargo]

I know the smallest I have built to complete a runthrough

[twin stone]

Specs?

[olive plank]

im betting one big room + 3 (1 moonpool 1 control 1 multipurpose) rooms are better than more than 5 multipurpose rooms

[twin stone]

ah, I'm doing 2 big rooms, 4-6 multipurpose, and probably a bunch of misc ones (scanner etc)

[olive plank]

i could get a photo

[twin stone]

Send

[olive plank]

an old photo because i added another multipurpose room into it

[lean notch]

I'm trying to find

[twin stone]

Big CHONKER

[lean notch]

Yeah it's empty tho

[olive plank]

large

i could do a pretty big one if i wanted to

but i put my base in such a place that twisty bridges cover it

[lean notch]

Still had a locker full of titanium ingots after that

[stoic cargo]

oh I thought you had multi level containment tanks in there?

[olive plank]

i think it looks really cool but it prevents expansion

[lean notch]

I wanted to do that but I was getting bored of bz

[stoic cargo]

fair enough

[twin stone]

how many hours?

[lean notch]

Idk like 40 or 60 in total

Still think sn1 is way more fun than bz

[twin stone]

I have about 28 so far

[twin stone]

I'm thinking the opposite, there's so much more for me to do in SNBZ than SN1 😂

[lean notch]

How

[twin stone]

well, SN1 really was just build your way out of 4546B

now there's an actual STORY with CHARACTERS and DIALOGUE

[lean notch]

I mean yeah I like the voice stuff

[eternal garnet]

bit more options for building, if you're into that

[lean notch]

True i just like the map more of the og

And cyclops

[golden jewel]

Both are subnautica in their own unique ways I think. SN1 had so much horror and exploration but less lore and talk than SNBZ which the opposite is true for

[lean notch]

I like the thrill

[twin stone]

I am VERY into that

[twin stone]

aye, it's really a pick your pleasure thing between the games

[golden jewel]

Yeah it really is

[twin stone]

Only thing I don't really like about crafting/building in SNBZ is that you can't uncraft titanium ingots in the fabricator

[eternal garnet]

imagine not being able to build a toilet

[twin stone]

Like, screw the recyclotron i want to uncraft my ingots in the fab

[lean notch]

I want a Subnautica with bz like story Subnautica map and wrecks more leviathans bit of land

[golden jewel]

Resources are harder to get in SNBZ like titanium

[lean notch]

Meh

Mercury wrecks have tons of salvage

[golden jewel]

Yeah I mean early game

[lean notch]

I had multiple lockers filled with titanium ingots at some point

[golden jewel]

Yeah but before Koppa it's difficult

[lean notch]

Never went to koppa for resources tbh

Just went to crystal caves with my seatrain

[golden jewel]

You can get so much ruby and diamond

[stoic cargo]

I recently completed both and I got a bit bored with the original but appreciate that there is much more variety in biomes and it is much more of a challenge not to lose vehicles or die. For UI (the UI is so bad in the original when you go back) and game playing well and for being relaxing fun BZ is great

[lean notch]

Everything basically

[lean notch]

Can't even tell the difference in the UI tbh lol the pda animation on bz is nicer tho

[twin stone]

No longer a truck huh

[lean notch]

No it had 6 modules

[twin stone]

😂

4 too many

[lean notch]

Used to cyclops which you make like 30 extra lockers in

[stoic cargo]

Really but dragging a tool to the hotlist is like an awful platform mini game of having to be within 5 pixels or it fails. The options in the original don't even have explanations. No pinning. The controls ... oh the awful controls .... sometimes to move inventory you left click and sometimes you right click ... depends on the inventory type .... the whole UI design ethos is terrible.

[twin stone]

Cyclops was too big for my liking

[lean notch]

Well it would be way to big for bz

[twin stone]

Even in SN1 i felt it was a bit big

[olive plank]

alright

[twin stone]

was hard to manuver too

[olive plank]

i resupplied and made the final preparations

[lean notch]

Yes the pinning was nice, didn't really need explanation for options i used my number keys to put tools in my hot bar. The fact that you sometimes have to right click and sometimes left is garbage yes.

[olive plank]

i have every material needed for the ||alan body||

[stoic cargo]

The cyclops is just a great game biome in itself .... it is the mobile base which you power and maintain .... it has a really good feel to it

[olive plank]

im just gonna find ||the fabricator caverns, get inside, immediately fabricate the body, and well i dont know whats next, probably something with the outpost zero teleporter||

[lean notch]

Maybe, it doesn't take collision damage or if it does it heals tho so i didn't really mind

[stoic cargo]

Before I thought the cyclops used power to repair itself but from recently playing it didn't look that way

[olive plank]

lmao what

[stoic cargo]

sorry cyclops is in the original game

[lean notch]

I just want both sea truck and cyclops

We're allowed to compare stuff here I'm pretty sure

[stoic cargo]

yes more so than the other place since less of them have played both

[olive plank]

i dont know how useful could the cyclops be though in bz

[lean notch]

Not

[olive plank]

you have fabricator and storage module in seatruck

[lean notch]

The map is too small for it

[olive plank]

also a docking module

what else do you need?

[eternal garnet]

"Must be constructed in deeper water..
moves
"Must be constructed in deeper water..

[lean notch]

Cyclops.

[olive plank]

i find the seatruck to make way more sense

its a combination of seamoth and cyclops

which is good enough for a smaller map

[stoic cargo]

the cyclops in BZ would mostly be for the pleasure of it ... it is not a good fit to the map .... you would get little use of it

[olive plank]

yeah, in normal subnautica it made a lot of sense

[lean notch]

Cyclops with juke box 👁️ 👄 👁️

[stoic cargo]

maybe to go to the|| bridge || or || Greenhouse || and back

[olive plank]

seamoth couldnt get too deep and prawn was too slow

solution? mobile moonpool/base

but here?

prawn is fast enough for the map in bz

the left shift boost is really good on its own

[stoic cargo]

I have completed this game with no vehicles ... you can't do that in the original

[lean notch]

Without glitches*

[olive plank]

yeah because ||neptune|| is a vehicle

[lean notch]

Yeah ok..

Doesn't count

||The spaceship|| is a vehicle too

[olive plank]

it is possible to beat it without vehicles though if you dont count the ||neptune||

[stoic cargo]

well || Neptune|| needs a part built in the || cyclops fab only ||

[olive plank]

oh yeah

well we dont count the neptune anyways

[lean notch]

Well you don't need to use the cyclops

[olive plank]

yeah

[lean notch]

Only make it

[olive plank]

just build it, fabricate it and throw it into a leviathans mouth

[stoic cargo]

true

[olive plank]

well anyway

im gonna do my last adventure

[stoic cargo]

could the lava lakes be done with no prawn?

[olive plank]

yes

[lean notch]

Yes super seaglide

[olive plank]

just stack health kits

or get the heat protection suit

[stoic cargo]

is there enough small deposit kyanite?

[lean notch]

Glitch through the map

[olive plank]

yep

[lean notch]

Yes

[olive plank]

there is also enough i on cubes

remember, ||sanctuary a and b||

[stoic cargo]

that was my next question

but don't you need about 8 cubes?

[olive plank]

yeah?

||emperor|| has like 2-3 ion cubes

||sanctuary a|| has a few

[stoic cargo]

neptune needs 2 ion cell = 4 .. plus gates

[olive plank]

and the main bases

have like 8 at total

[stoic cargo]

so complete the whole game with maybe 3 ultra tanks?

need to make underwater single hallway base stops?

[olive plank]

you could build a lot of bases too

[stoic cargo]

or build and dismantle trick?

[olive plank]

or just build 5 thousand pipes if youre brave enough

[stoic cargo]

when I did BZ with no vehicles I also had no bases ... could not do that in the original I think

[olive plank]

yeah no

[stoic cargo]

a few alien sites around for air

[worldly condor]

when you guys were talking about cyclops and jukeboxes i thought this was the subnautica chat for a second

[stoic cargo]

soz

[winter turret]

how do i get lead in bz

[spice seal]

Galena outcrops

They can be found just scattered about in the twisty bridges and thermal spires

[eternal garnet]

they like dark side walls at 50-200m

[winter turret]

and where do i find those

oh thanks

[broken badge]

Upper lilipads also has lead/galena

[lean notch]

They didn't even bother me and I went in with a seaglide

[broken badge]

I got attacked like 20 times night before last, it was like constant almost, but I wasn’t too worried with perimeter defense.

[ember merlin]

where can i find nickel

[lean notch]

Crystal caves and lilly pads

[eternal garnet]

deep lilypads (flowering spores), or crystal caves. In that order

[lean notch]

You can get it in normal lillypads too

[ember merlin]

ok thx, also alien containment

[lean notch]

Mercury 2 bow

[ember merlin]

which one is that?

[last jolt]

||Arctic spires|| has I think the most ion cubes

[lean notch]

One in lilly pads

[ember merlin]

so the on in thje lilly pads

hm i cant find any nickel in the crystal caves

i do

i found some

[brittle gorge]

it's quite rare

[ember merlin]

is the seatruck depth module the only thing i need nickel for?

[eternal garnet]

no, but 8 might last forever

[ember merlin]

ok ill get that

thanks for the help

[olive plank]

finished the game

the ending was based

[brittle gorge]

what's "based"?

[olive plank]

https://tenor.com/view/based-based-on-what-based-on-cope-brick-wall-gif-21853705

[spice seal]

Like true

[olive plank]

"based" is used in different places

[spice seal]

I'm not sure what he means by it though

[olive plank]

its most obvious use is just saying "i agree" or "amazing"

[eternal garnet]

ignore the word, it was born in qanon world

[olive plank]

based

[eternal garnet]

it might designate the user as a moron

[olive plank]

no it doesnt

[spice seal]

That's not how it's used now

[brittle gorge]

hey I didn't mean to start an argument

[olive plank]

what do you mean

[spice seal]

It means what the people who use it for mean it to, that's how language works

And normal people are using it for normal things

[olive plank]

i use "based" as a way of agreeing or liking something

[brittle gorge]

i see. thanks

[eternal garnet]

originally it was alt-right only, meaning a redpilled person

[olive plank]

it wasnt though

it was made by altrights i think

but its use wasnt only to altrights

it was their way of saying i like this

the words meaning isnt associated to altright

its just that they started using it first

and ngl, i like that word

[eternal garnet]

that's literally what I said. now stop this

[olive plank]

aight

[spice seal]

yes back to cold wet fish game

[olive plank]

back to the funny underwater

[brittle gorge]

I'm still looking for ||Marguerit's Audio Log #1||. I have #2 and #3 (which are in ||her main base with the moonpool||). I've searched her ||greenhouse||; it's not there (but there is a different PDA log there).

[eternal garnet]

#1 is on her powerplant, which is in a side tunnel to her base

[olive plank]

what

i just finished the game and marguerit had a powerplant?

[spice seal]

Oh yeah look around in the purple tree spire cave place

[olive plank]

im lazy imma just look on youtube

[brittle gorge]

ooooh ok. someone else (don't think it was you) mentioned ||an energy thing||.

i'll go back to searching! 🙂

thanks

[spice seal]

While you're there you can go back to the main base and go to the ||second room since you can go back there after you visit the greenhouse|| because you didn't mention doing that

[brittle gorge]

oh yes, I've been there (it's where i found ||log #3||)

but thanks anyway

[spice seal]

Oh ok

[copper obsidian]

you're a monster

[native jetty]

i would be if i pinged the devs instead of politely not pinging them and letting them read me blackmailing them for me to own unknown worlds entertainment otherwise the musical group would die

as a matter of fact, i was holding a monster and it was what i was using to threaten to the devs so yes

according to the algebric sum of the google defintion of monster, looking through the 4134 results that if blackmailing is being a monster 57% that blackmailing is not a monster

the reason is that going back to the greek myth times people can not be monsters unless they are not human

in a summary i am coming up with random letters and words

[eternal garnet]

yes... you are

[brittle gorge]

well, i found ||the powerplant|| - and not for the first time! it's ||under a vent garden, which was the first one of its kind i found||. I've been there at least twice and never noticed ||the PDA||! duh! 🙂

[winter turret]

can i find diamonds not in a deposit form?

i'm just trying to make enameled glass and i don't have the prawn suit

[eternal garnet]

yes. easiest is deep twisties

at 350m. it's fine to swim, there are o2 plants

[winter turret]

ight thank you

[eternal garnet]

and you should find 2 very useful blueprints

oh you do need rebreather first

[winter turret]

such as?

[winter turret]

i have the blueprint

[eternal garnet]

two truck modules

[winter turret]

noice that's what i'm looking for

trying to make the depth module mk1 right now lmao

[warm temple]

Weird that Kharaa barely played a part. What was ||the antidote|| for then?

[eternal garnet]

to finish Sams work. I wish it tied in more, was required even

[narrow mirage]

can you pls tell me a good biome for lithium

[eternal garnet]

purple vents. it's many other (deep) places

[carmine bobcat]

Guys if i rely on youtube for fragment locations and some story locations like the greenhouse is that cheating?

[eternal garnet]

totally up to you. Beware videos before may. Things have changed

[small wagon]

i went into creative and experienced the ecstasy of grappling and drilling a leviathan,i killed both ||shadows in fabricator caves||

[spark pike]

where can i find a lot of lead

[surreal ferry]

Uhhh i think those thermal vents near ||delta island||

Whoops

I found lead there often

[spark pike]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[forest mantle]

I only just realized this, after having been here multiple times, but ||Maida's|| base totally has two different sized large rooms. As if there's a medium room that you just can't scan. Also, the bottom right corner in the large room is completely blocked off. I'm not sure why but there just isn't a doorway. There's also a med-kit fabricator just sitting on a table which is extremely infuriating because you can't scan it.

[spiral garden]

My claustrophobia is really getting to me in the underwater caves by ||the phi base||

Theyre so twisty and confusing

[abstract sedge]

damn

you're right

[broken badge]

There’s also a medkit fabricator inside Omega. Can’t scan it either. But it’s easy enough to grow or harvest creepvine, and make kits from mesh I haven’t missed it a lot, other than it was a bit more convenient early game (but on the other hand I don’t have excess medkits like I used to end up with in og Subnautica; also the land areas give you a lot of freebie medkits as well)

[lean notch]

Never had to craft any med kits got all from supply crates

[soft ledge]

Bruh

|| i was just attacked by a leviathan class creature ||

[gaunt mauve]

I just realized that Al-an is probably named after Alan turring

[broken badge]

Actually it’s hypothesized on the wiki it might represent a contracted form of the word alien😉

[gaunt mauve]

Yeah but just Think about this

Alan has been responsible for who was going to die. Ww2 Enigma / 4546B Khararh

Alan is operating like a machine/brain and is not in the regular biological sexual orientation.

I know it’s hard comparing the two but COINCIDENT? I THINK NOT

[broken badge]

You lost me. But I don’t think there’s any relationship

[vernal isle]

Hey buddy

[eternal garnet]

oh you ded. I see

[vernal isle]

Im in an observatory

[soft ledge]

whats the name of the massive Leviathan

[vernal isle]

Which one?

[soft ledge]

It's currently trying to eat me

[eternal garnet]

"frozen leviathan"?

[soft ledge]

crystal cave

I'm in there

[eternal garnet]

oh. probably not. Shadow leviathan

[soft ledge]

its a right pain

i had to hide behind a rock so it couldnt reach me

[vernal isle]

Does it look like a giant shrimp?

[soft ledge]

i googled it and its the shadow one

Its massive and has a blue mouth

[vernal isle]

Its called a Shadow Leviathan

[soft ledge]

its a scary little thing

I have 30 seconds of oxygen and its standing in between my ship

[vernal isle]

Not very "Little"

Rush in

[soft ledge]

Im gonna try and get there fast and just dip

screw this lmaoo i'll come back when im more prepared

I don't even have a prawn suit yet

[vernal isle]

You either die from lack of O2 or at the blue mouth of the biggest leviathan in the game

[soft ledge]

It attacked me before

and if im honest I got scared and alt f4'd

[broken badge]

I’m sorry, you misunderstood, I wasn’t lost about who Turing was, I know who he was, I just don’t think your comparison is quite on spot. And I’m sorry I have to remove all that, I know it must’ve taken a long time to write all that but (1) it’s not really on topic material for this channel, as most of it is about Turing, and (2) not all of that is what I’d call accurate. For example, just one, he wasn’t mentally retarded because of the side effects of the medication he was dispensed. Those medications caused horrific side effects don’t get me wrong but MR isn’t one of them. This isn’t really a subject matter appropriate for the channel though, I wanted to explain why I needed to remove your post though so you wouldn’t think I was just doing so “without cause” It’s good to think about why things might be included in games and from where/ whom, etc, a person who wrote the story might’ve taken influences from👍

[vernal isle]

What a cute couple

[carmine bobcat]

how do i kill the shadow lavithin?

[eternal garnet]

a handful of truck bumps, or prawn

it's not planned that you should need to kil it, but you can

[carmine bobcat]

i cant get to the area there with them there

[vernal isle]

Grapple and Drill are generally the best arms to murder an innocent long black creature

[carmine bobcat]

got it

with i had the cyclops from the first game tho

[broken badge]

I asked one of the devs about this, and they said an unmanned vehicle they thought wouldn’t be attacked
But I haven’t checked this out recently

If you park it right in front of the ||fabricator facility that is||

[vernal isle]

Mine got destroyed in fab facility

[carmine bobcat]

im sticking to just prawns

[vernal isle]

I just said "Nah, thats not right" and spawned in a new prawn with all the original mods

[broken badge]

I know my seatruck got attacked with me in it
So I did let them know, I thought people were still having prawns be attacked while inside

[carmine bobcat]

but i do hope for a 3rd game to see the alien world more, but the shadow lavithin is annoying

[broken badge]

I try to park my seatruck about 100m away from the entrance there’s a place between a crystal and wall so it doesn’t get snatched and wrecked

[vernal isle]

My innocent little prawn suit was murdered by a Shadow while I was in the ||Fab Facility|| so I decided to murder them all

[broken badge]

Recently?

[carmine bobcat]

did it go well?

[vernal isle]

And now I have killed every single Shadow in the game

[broken badge]

It was wrecked recently I mean

[vernal isle]

I decided that it wasn't fair that I lost my vehicle completing the story so spawned a new one in and all the mods I had with it

[carmine bobcat]

also do u wish below zero had from the first game?

[vernal isle]

I dont consider it cheating because there wasn't anything I could do to prevent it from dying

[next current]

Huh?

[broken badge]

There are some places you can park a prawn or seatruck not far away where the shadows can’t reach them but I agree there shouldn’t be attacks on unattended vehicles right in front of the ||fabrication facility|| that was supposed to have been fixed but apparently not yet😅

[carmine bobcat]

also i get lost in that area resulting in me loosing material, and prawns i lost so many prawns i had to start a new game 😦

[next current]

I see everyone is using the name ||"Fabrication Facility"|| instead of ||The Fabricator Base.||

[winter turret]

||fabricator cavern superiority||

[broken badge]

I call all the places that are alien-related “facilities” that’s a habit from Subnautica xD

[winter turret]

where do i find the exterior growbed?

[next current]

Bingo.

[next current]

-Omega Lab.
-||Mercury 2 Bow||
-Farming Tech Site in between the Thermal Spires and Twisty Bridges.

[restive dragon]

Hello, I just got sub: below zero, and its pretty cool lmao very fun and the graphics are incredible.

[restive dragon]

ik

I like those plants

[carmine bobcat]

until they burn you smh

[restive dragon]

[placid lake]

heat plants are high

on heat

[eager void]

Hello

[twin stone]

Yello

[eager void]

How’s your BZ experience today?

[twin stone]

Didn't have time to play today

[eager void]

Sadness

[twin stone]

Was cable managing my new PC build

which is STILL not working (prob bad HDD)

[eager void]

Oof

Hope that settles itself out, I used to have a PC till it took a massive load on itself lol.

Haven’t had the money to just fix what was wrong with it so I ended up getting a switch since it was more convenient

[twin stone]

What was the problem?

[spice seal]

what's with the reaction spam

[restive dragon]

||I have a question about deep twisty, I saw a big ol' kraken looking like thing, how dangerous is it, and is it a leviathen cuz it was biiiigg||

[spice seal]

It's not a leviathan

Though some have a hard time accepting that for some reason

[restive dragon]

its huge?!?!

and what is it?

[spice seal]

I'd say it's pretty dangerous, but I'm not sure how much damage it does because I've never had an encounter with it

Squidshark

[restive dragon]

ah

I saw it in the trailer

looked alot smaller lmao

[modern steeple]

not big enough to be a leviathan

it's only like

how long are squidsharks?

was it 20 or 10 meters?

anyways

they aren't big enough

a leviathan is a really big thing

[final flame]

The PDA says it's a "leviathan class predator"

You can easily kill them by just running into them with sea truck, like basically all. Non leviathan predators

[restive dragon]

I cant find any seatruck stuff

ive looked alot in twisty

[final flame]

Look in twistys

deep twistys has a lot as well

[restive dragon]

ive been using my material finder

[final flame]

and purple vents near cheli

[restive dragon]

there was like 50 seaglide ones tho

idk where that is btw

im new to the game

[final flame]

yes

deep twistys and twistys has enough

For it and storage module

and fabricator I think

I have every module so idk

[restive dragon]

well theres a squid shark chillin there

and I cant rly get in

[final flame]

there are a lot of oxygen plants down there

[restive dragon]

I know

i saw

[final flame]

and the squid shark usually doesnfgk to the bottom

[restive dragon]

btw are there any leviathens in the deep twisties

[final flame]

no

[restive dragon]

anything i should be worried about except squidiebois

[final flame]

Purple vents and tree spires and a cave 600m-1000

[restive dragon]

welp ima look for that stuff tmrw good niiiight

[final flame]

there are things in the ground that look like a plant but pulls u in at the. Bottom

[restive dragon]

I know those i saw in a vid lmao

[final flame]

Ok

[tardy mirage]

e

[carmine bobcat]

Frick the spike traps

They dont even do dmg just hit them off ur arm with a knife they do like 5 dmg

But they absolutely scare tf outta me

[final flame]

No if they pull you in I think it instantly kills

[boreal edge]

After this shot, I actually managed to get in each of three stuck seatrucks and get them all out. 🙂 Next step is to dismantle the moonpool and put it further from the chlicerate's territory so big Pinky doesn't keep occasionally attacking vehicles while docked.

It seems to happen with jelly fish too, so I assume any leviathan or vehicle-attacking creature might do this. Anyone been attacked by squidshark or cyptosuchus in a moonpool? Once the seatruck is bumped out of position, it can be impossible to get it back in position. So, I now have three of them. However, you can still charge another seatruck or prawnsuit - and doing so can happily bump the stuck ones into a better location from which they can be driven back out of the moonpool.

(This base is by the tree spires )

[final flame]

Why do you have multiple sea trucks jammed in one moonpool

[boreal edge]

sor of explained above - if a big critter bumps them out of position, it can become impossible to get them out again. I tried and tried until I got seasick, then decided to build another. 🙂

[final flame]

Oh I thought they were stuck

Show ur base

I'm on vacation rn and didn't bring my switch dock so I haven't played it

So I can't show mine

😿

[boreal edge]

some of the neighbours are a bit rowdy though...

[final flame]

lol nice

Why don't they attack base parts tho

Bart and the other guy crying rn

I want to make more bases since I'm. Basically done with story and only have 1 in kelpforest\shallowtwisty

[broken badge]

Creatures don’t attack bases

They can incidentally damage them when attacking player/player vehicles, but they don’t intentionally attack base structures

[unborn dome]

Has anyone got the autosorter from Subnautica to work with BZ?

[crude kite]

Think I’m gonna build a base in crystal caves about ||where you find architect organs|| cause that place is safe from shadows it might be a bit rough to power it unless I’m planning to get out of my prawn to place power transmitters to lilypads but I mean bioreactors and nuclear reactors are also an option

[gaunt mauve]

Understandable 👍. I couldn’t answer till now I wrote it at 00:00

[abstract sedge]

why do you guys think the sea monkeys bring you gifts instead of stealing things once you ||recover Al-an ||

[marsh vigil]

When in vehicles I can look in any direction, but the vehicle only moves a little. For example in this image I am looking downwards and towards the back of the seatruck.
The issue persists through both reloading and restarting the application.
I've tried the solution to the mouse offset issue listed in the troubleshooting guide, as that sounded similar.
Because it's persistent it seems like an option, but I've not found it anywhere in the game settings.

[marsh vigil]

Finally fixed it by entering my prawn suit, then exiting it and entering the sea truck

[eager void]

Hard drive got corrupted and my CPU went bad

Wasn’t working to much at the time so didn’t really work the hours to buy some new stuff

[random compass]

anyone know of any further plans regarding development of BZ?
found the end a little bit disappointing tbh xD

[deep venture]

GUYS

[deep venture]

same, but thats the end, and there isnt any more development going

[deep venture]

I finally finished the game...

[random compass]

sadge man...
not sure I am up for the next one if there is one to come. Cause the end REALLY kind of made me regret it xD
Had the game prepurchased from the first day, loved it to death, actually was onboard with the story overhaul even, and then those months of waiting for the final 5-10 minutes were REALLY disappointing xD

not sure why, the end just didn't sit right with me, I feel like there was so much more they could have explored lore wise instead of bringing us to the new world... really felt like more was planned but then cut, gave an unfinished vibe and not the good one where you eagerly wait for the next one, just felt like the end was unfinished in itself :X

but other than those last 5 minutes, game is exceptionally good

[deep venture]

I 100% agree with you

[random compass]

well, finding the final part within the crystal caverns was a couple terrible hours of diving circles and going mad irl but that issue I actually had with the lava castle in the normal SN already 😂 so one might argue it's part of the game's charme 😂

How does one get to become a Playtester btw?
I have actual Experience with playtesting closed realms or pre-release clients, so I am curious 🤔

[bold monolith]

Fill the form in the topic of this channel.

[random compass]

head > desk

[boreal edge]

I found the seaglide's 3D map particularly helpful in below zero, especially for hunting down some hard-to-find late-game things. It tipped me off to go back and better explore a place I'd already been to in order to find an important Architect cache.

I got out of my seatruck or prawn (in between attacks from assorted large screaming things) to look for tunnels that I might've missed otherwise.

For similar reasons, a scanning room here and there helps a lot - I still found the seaglide more helpful because I could see how the land features around me changed compared to the 3D map as I moved about.

[random compass]

ty xD

[spiral garden]

How do I get into the ventgarden for the spiral plant. There seems to permanently be a chelicerate directly next to it

[boreal edge]

just be brave and keep to the cracks before you go up. Sometimes a shark can follow you in as well. 🙂

Oh, and save before you do anything particularly brave.

[spiral garden]

Great...

[boreal edge]

If you die, you just end up back in your base or vehicle. It's still stressful. 🙂

make sure you have anough air to get back again.

[frosty cedar]

that ending tho

[boreal edge]

well ... yeah, but I guess any end will be disappointing when you don't want it to end.

In the original SN, I had the escape ready and had saved the world but, I just wanted to make one more epic base ...

[frosty cedar]

oh i wasn't trying to come of as negative i was saying that i loved the ending

[random compass]

found it weird, personally, but may have been ebcause i had game since day 1 and waited for the end, so that may have ruined it for me 😛

[frosty cedar]

yeah

[random compass]

any chance you can tell me the average time until I receive a reply (should I be accepted)? 2 weeks, 4 weeks, etc, so I know at which point to assume I am either on the wait list or did not make it^^

[bold monolith]

I don't have the answer sorry. At the time I waited one month.

[random compass]

kk I will use that as a rough reference then, thank you

[boreal edge]

I still liked the ending too. I also like that there is more than one thing you need to resolve in the story.

[frosty cedar]

||i missed the curing of the ice leviathan on my first play through||

[lean notch]

You don't NEED to do them, i didn't even know i was supposed to cure the leviathan in my first play through

[carmine bobcat]

finally ( forgot to mark it as a spoiler the 1st time )

i dunno if it is really a spoiler, but it is something about an alien specie in the game

[lean notch]

What about it

[carmine bobcat]

i finally scanned it lol, took pretty long

[lean notch]

nice

[random compass]

cause you aren't^^
It used to be part of the original story line and I think it was just kept in because of the amount of effort that went into the Leviathan 😛

[random compass]

They are in the OG one too btw, they are just the native birbs

[carmine bobcat]

oh

Fun fact: the void chelicerate does less damage than the normal one

[restive dragon]

how fast is the aquid shark, and whats a good way to slip by it

[hushed gazelle]

I do not know how to get pass it but it is very fast

[carmine bobcat]

idk what with you im just ramming it with my sea truck until it dies

[hushed gazelle]

Nope

[carmine bobcat]

only a few bashes

[hushed gazelle]

That will make it worse

[restive dragon]

well i am trying to get seatruck peices lmao

[carmine bobcat]

oh

[restive dragon]

and the big boi is blockin the way

[carmine bobcat]

for me it works good, im just killing it then repairing my sea truck

[restive dragon]

does the holding a fish in your hand work with it?

[hushed gazelle]

Dude it will then attack you

[restive dragon]

like it eats the fish and nto you

[hushed gazelle]

And they are real hard and fast

I would recommend not to do that anymore

[restive dragon]

welp thanks for ur help, i just hope the big boi doesnt nom on me

[carmine bobcat]

idk what with you but i have a few squid shark kills already

[random compass]

if you wanna get past apex predators, swim toward them and then dodge, if you circle them tightly they will eventually give up and swim away, they are not very good at tight turns 😄

[hushed gazelle]

But you will damage your seq truck

Seateuck

[restive dragon]

oooooooo thanks man that helps me ALOT

[carmine bobcat]

some big fish

[hushed gazelle]

S e a t r u c k

[carmine bobcat]

thats why i then leave and repair it

[hushed gazelle]

You going to dye

[restive dragon]

also, the way the pda says stabalizing, steeblizing i find that funny

[carmine bobcat]

it is less damage to my sea truck then the damage i will get if it attacked me first

[random compass]

oh I am referring to swimming, not vehicle diving xD

[hushed gazelle]

That is a void chelirat

[random compass]

works with sea truck too if you have no modules

[hushed gazelle]

E

[random compass]

you can also ram them from the side btw, will briefly shooh them away too

[hushed gazelle]

It will kill you you know, right

[restive dragon]

Al-AN just scared the frick out of me

[hushed gazelle]

It has good five senses

K

I am not that good though but I know a lot

[restive dragon]

so i cant just snek past it like i normally do with leviathens in the first game

[hushed gazelle]

He

Ya

[restive dragon]

btw how many squid sharks live in deep twisties

[carmine bobcat]

i saw like 1 or 2 when i went there

but i didn't really explore there alot

i just went to collect some stuff from the entrances to the deep twisty bridges

[restive dragon]

thats what im trin to do, just find stuff at entrance

[carmine bobcat]

so yeah you might see like 1 or 2 of those squid sharks

[restive dragon]

I see both

btw are there any seaglide frags down there, i dont want em messin with my mineral detector

[random compass]

depends on how deep you go you might end up finding sea truck parts

iirc that is

[restive dragon]

I have found two seatruck peices in normal twistys lmao

but a seatruck fabricator peice in deep

[carmine bobcat]

you can change the minerals that your mineral detector leads you to, but you won't find there any seaglide frags there, i think the only frags i found down there were sea truck modules

[carmine bobcat]

my base is right above twisty bridges, i find like 2-4 seaglide fragments when i go below my base

[restive dragon]

you cant pick what fragment though

[carmine bobcat]

oh you are searching for fragments

[random compass]

I still miss a tool to remote control the Scanner Room... always frustrated me that I have to go back to change the scan target scheme or even to switch it off when during early game power is not sustained 100%

[carmine bobcat]

i thought diamonds or something

[random compass]

Doesn't the ravine have easier accessible Diamonds? or where those Rubies.. man I don't even remember fml xD

[carmine bobcat]

just get a bio reactor and snatch some baby pengwings

thats what i do, and it works mighty fine

[random compass]

bah, fish do too

just breed em~
but if you don't wanna take the long route via Bio Reactor and only use temporary power sources and scans to look for specific things^^

[marsh vigil]

I run mine on gel sacks

[carmine bobcat]

i run mine on really anything i can find

usually it is baby penglings tho

[carmine bobcat]

also how do i breed fish?

[marsh vigil]

No growbeds yet?

[carmine bobcat]

i do have grow beds

[lean notch]

Then why don't you just use plants

[restive dragon]

how dare you snatch the babies they are adorable

[marsh vigil]

gel sacks are better than penglings powerwise, a full bed provides enough to fill a bioreactor and replant the bed

[carmine bobcat]

well the bio reactor thinks they are worthy of its usage

[lean notch]

Just use thermal reactor, there's a 252c lava vent in the thermal spires.

[carmine bobcat]

well i have a whole bed with gel sacks

but my power is 500 always

[random compass]

you need a large Alien Specimen Tank

[carmine bobcat]

other than when i recharge power cell

[carmine bobcat]

already have it, i have a glow whale in it and more aliens

a brute shark too, sea monke

[delicate fossil]

Do they damage your base?

[carmine bobcat]

you might be able to see more of my aliens through this pic ( other than the glow whale )

[restive dragon]

theres more than 2 squidbois, ive seen like 4 now

[random compass]

collect fish, put em in, watch em multiply (need at least 2 of one species for them to mate, normal fish will just replicate smaller fish, and egg laying species will dorp eggs in your tank that hatch after a full day cycle)

and no, leviathans or anything really you grow or have in a tank, will NOT attack you or the base

you can even release them, and they won't attack you

[carmine bobcat]

wait so if i have two glow whales, i can feed my bio reactor leviathans?

baby leviathans i should say

[random compass]

however if you leave the chunk and return later, or even safe and load in while being somewhere else and then return, their behaviour might be overwritten and they become feral again

[random compass]

depends on the species, not all of them actually replicate.

some don't lay eggs, or have had their eggs removed, so those won't replicate.

[carmine bobcat]

the brute shark will die before he manages to say hey if he attacks me while he is free, for now he is in a storage box

[random compass]

but ye, anything that can replicate, you can breed

[carmine bobcat]

alrighty, what about eye jelly's? i plan on making them a special alien containment

[marsh vigil]

Bioreactor wiki page has data on power values of everything

[random compass]

find it funny how plants and food deteriorates but fish stay perfectly healthy in inventory or storage lmao

[marsh vigil]

https://subnautica-belowzero.fandom.com/wiki/Bioreactor#Bioreactor_Values
I'm curious, are these ingame anywhere?

[restive dragon]

I just found the last seatruck peice but this little yellow and blu dude is guarden it

[random compass]

"let me just slap this fish into my storage box with my food and take it out in 4 days again, still alive and well"

[marsh vigil]

Toothy ray thing? Stab it, it'll go away. Alternatively there are plenty of other sea truck pieces.

[restive dragon]

well they are fast xD

[carmine bobcat]

brute shark

[restive dragon]

and i just found another

but it was guarded by a thing with glowy blue flippers and looked like a wolf

[marsh vigil]

I have all the blueprints for you-know-who. How do I discover where the ||Fabricator Base is? Al-An hasn't said anything about its location, even after sleeping.||. I don't want to know where it is, I want to know how to find that out ingame.

[twin stone]

Other than exploring, not much i can say

I'll just say 2 things:
Red Crystal Caves
VERY deep inside

[untold imp]

Where can i find the blueprints for seatruck well for the prawn module

[marsh vigil]

Deep Purple Vents IIRC

[marsh vigil]

Thanks! So there's nothing ingame beyond the hint that it's deep? Odd.

[eternal garnet]

deepest, even. Except the void.

[untold imp]

O oki thanks

Can u also detach modules from ur sea truck and is there a limit on how many modules u can have at once

[eternal garnet]

yes, no

[marsh vigil]

Modules are detached by the lever on the left side of the cockpit. You can't reach the lever while piloting, you have to be standing.

[eternal garnet]

you can detach and drive individual modules with the top handle

[untold imp]

Ohh okay ty^^

[arctic whale]

I can't find the Omega Base,I'm in the right biome

[carmine bobcat]

look in your DM's, i sent you a guide

[untold imp]

Can u send it to me too I also havent found it yet

[eternal garnet]

it's inside ||the big tall rock center of lilypads, just above entrance to deep lilypads||

[carmine bobcat]

check DM's

[restive dragon]

where do i find diamonds?

[spice seal]

The place you saw the squidshark in is the best place early game

[quaint cloud]

Almost every deep biome

[next current]

Deep Twisty Bridges!

It's like the Twisty Bridges but Deep.

[restive dragon]

ik

anywhere else thats safe

[quaint cloud]

I killed all the squid sharks there

They are in the mines

[restive dragon]

where do i get lithium thats safe

[lean notch]

Purple vents is pretty safe

[spice seal]

is it though

[lean notch]

I meannn

Most of it

[spice seal]

Most of it's fine though

And you don't have a lot of other options

[restive dragon]

oh god ik where that is

theres a chelerite there

[lean notch]

I mean deep twisty is probably still easier

Squidshark wont bother you if you stay low

[random compass]

If you swim around the Island in the center, I think to the west is a mine entrance, there you should find Diamonds too iirc

[lean notch]

Lots of O2 plants there too

[random compass]

100m I think and no leviathans

west or east

[restive dragon]

koppa mining island?

[next current]

I've never heard of it.

[lean notch]

Delta island

[broken badge]

Koppa mine is sw of delta. It’s not an island, delta is on the island lol

[next current]

That's the word I was looking for.

[lean notch]

I mean mine is basically underneath delta

[broken badge]

Delta station. Delta isn’t an island either lol

[lean notch]

Delta island

Well apparently it is called that lol

[broken badge]

Never heard it called that, but ok, cool

[next current]

It is indeed called the Delta Island. You will see some older players call it the Rocket Island.

[broken badge]

I didn’t have the game in ea so…

[next current]

Sad. 😔

[broken badge]

Also, Happy 4th of July

[next current]

Happy 4th of July to you too!

You can tell I celebrate it because of my hat. :3

[restive dragon]

phew i just got everything i now need for seatruck depth module mk1

[lean notch]

Nice

[deep inlet]

anyone know where I can find large lead deposits?

[lean notch]

Those are not in below zero sadly.

[deep inlet]

of course not xD well thanks anyway

which types can be found then, for refernce? i've seen quartz, copper and titanium at least

[lean notch]

Quartz, copper, diamonds, titanium, ruby and ion i think.

Oh and silver and kyanite

[deep inlet]

so no gold, lead or nickel then? gotcha

[carmine bobcat]

those entrance cracks to deep twisty bridges, i found quite a bit of diamonds there

[carmine bobcat]

in the entrance to the mine he will find like 4 diamonds max i bet

[lean notch]

Gold too

Just no magnetite, nickel, salt, uranite, lead and lithium

[frank zenith]

what my sposed to do with this last pilot signal? i tried swimming down there 🤔 or maybe i need better equipment,..

[carmine bobcat]

You need to go at least 350 meters, but if you head a little bit east of the pilot last known position you will find something useful

Start at ur drop pod and head sw for until you get to the glacier biome, then start searching on the glaciers

[frank zenith]

by glaciers u mean that big old station with the pods and stuff @carmine bobcat

[carmine bobcat]

delta island ^

[frank zenith]

yeah i went and put a beacon up there every time i head up it snows and goes dark 😆

suicidal jumping so i dont freeze and die 🤪

[restive dragon]

I just found the purple vents

[frank zenith]

the exploding things in the water?

[carmine bobcat]

the purple vents are all around ||delta island||

[frank zenith]

those big fish are always about haha

[carmine bobcat]

purple vents is a biome

[frank zenith]

do they have a use?

[restive dragon]

I just found outpost zero lmao

[random compass]

the vents? no

they are purely aesthetically

[copper obsidian]

little shrimp

[copper obsidian]

nice

[arctic whale]

I can't find where our frozen friend is.

[eternal garnet]

got the ice area map? it's the tower bottom left

in the tree area

[carmine bobcat]

Purple vents has a use tf u talkin bout

[eternal garnet]

they won't generate useful power

[carmine bobcat]

Thermal plants, lithium, quartz, salt,

Its also mineral rich tho

Ooo and sulfur

[arctic whale]

I don't know which way to go,I crossed the bridge

[eternal garnet]

it's south of the bridge, entirely other direction (south-west)

[arctic whale]

So I have to go back over it?,I'm standing next to a tower that's on the opposite side

[eternal garnet]

south, man. Got compass? if not, carry on in the direction of the first bridge piece you found

past phi robotics

use the ingame map from phi. want the map?

[worldly condor]

so sad that i couldn't get my mk2 seatruck the same way as the mk1: through seamonkeys

[random compass]

I'm not referring to the Biome, I am referring to the actual vents

the vents themselves have zero value

[arctic whale]

Yes,I have a compass,and I was talking about the hydraulic bridge

[eternal garnet]

me too. it is not past the bridge, it's south-west

[arctic whale]

Oh

[eternal garnet]

in the ice tree area, by a tower

[arctic whale]

Do I keep going southwest past that little area with the crane?

This area?

[eternal garnet]

that looks north of the bridge

[arctic whale]

I went back over it

[eternal garnet]

it's important that you are SOUTH of the bridge

[restive dragon]

how do i get to the deep lilys

[eternal garnet]

in the center there's a huge tall rock. go under it (also go inside it for a thing)

[restive dragon]

idk where that is

im tryin to find the ancient architect Q59

[eternal garnet]

all the monkey caves lead to this big rock

[restive dragon]

ah

[arctic whale]

Of course I can't see anything cause it's dark out

[eternal garnet]

artifact Q59 is in koppa mine near the island, south-west of it

[twin stone]

Yello people

[arctic whale]

I went south and past the landing pad,and found this area with skeletal remains

[eternal garnet]

A bed lets you jump 8h forward

[arctic whale]

My bed is back at my base,I'm there in my prawn suit

[eternal garnet]

not unique. try to continue south west, either thru the water tunnel or above on a high road

[restive dragon]

ykw can i just call you so you can navigate me in the right direction? because idk where stuff is lmao

[eternal garnet]

no. have a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN0csu3o4Bo

[restive dragon]

k

thx

[eternal garnet]

he's showing you a beacon so you can see the distance

[spark pike]

meow

[arctic whale]

This tunnel?

[eternal garnet]

you can also see coords from his F1 window

[eternal garnet]

possibly. Not sure a prawn can get thru

[spark pike]

it took me like an hour to navigate the icey area to get everything i need then go back to my sea truck

[restive dragon]

found it

wait i think i did

[eternal garnet]

once you find the koppa mine door, it's hard to miss

[gilded gust]

I've been looking around the mushroom forreat for an hour now and haven't found ANY hull fragments

Pls help

[restive dragon]

wrong chat friendo

[eternal garnet]

wrong game. there's at least 2 mushroom forests tho

[gilded gust]

Oopsy

[restive dragon]

just learned seatruck cant fit through door

btw are there any seatruck frags in tthe koppa mine

[eternal garnet]

no, well, you can kinda wiggle it in at the top

no, but plenty important crap

[restive dragon]

Yes, theres rubies

[eternal garnet]

and prawn, and dimes, and some more blueprints

[restive dragon]

ooo

[arctic whale]

All it did was bring me here.

[restive dragon]

wait dimes? whats that

[eternal garnet]

maybe not dimes, except minable ones
Diamonds. I think mineable only

[restive dragon]

whats a dime

[random compass]

actually when I entered the mine, there was not much for me to collect besides the scan that i did not already have.

Everything (or almost everything with the exception of milestones) can be found in multiple places

[twin stone]

Kappa?

[random compass]

sadly no

had skipped the mine for a long time xD

[twin stone]

ahh

wait then what mine

[random compass]

mining site

Delta Island

[eternal garnet]

yeah that is Koppa mine

or maybe you mean the little diamond/gold tunnel on the island

[random compass]

nah i mean the mining site^^

[umbral adder]

I need a few more things then im able to do a ton in the game but noooo the game wont give me the frags

[eternal garnet]

the answer is usually monkeh

[final flame]

Yes

"Near pilot last position" and kelp. Caves

[carmine bobcat]

ey

im tempted to stream bz

[eternal garnet]

if you are comfortable babbling, explaining what you are doing, go for it

[restive dragon]

if that's your number, delete it

[vernal isle]

Shrimp Down

[restive dragon]

how do you get spiral plant samples?

like where?

[vernal isle]

Vent Garden or Deep Purple Vents

[restive dragon]

where di i find vent gardens

[vernal isle]

Thermal Tree Spires

[eternal garnet]

west of island

[vernal isle]

To the right of the Lily Pads

[restive dragon]

which island?

[eternal garnet]

there's one island that isn't an iceberg

[vernal isle]

Delta Island

[restive dragon]

ah

I almost just ran into the void LMAO, luckily i was looking at debug menu and caught that

[next current]

Don't worry, the PDA would've warned you.

[restive dragon]

I know

I am lookin for a ventgarden

they are suprisingly hard to fin

[next current]

Well... they're the biggest living Leviathans in Sector Zero, so they shouldn't be too hard to find.

[eternal garnet]

and they don't run away

[next current]

They are not cowards.

[eternal garnet]

just west side of the island

[next current]

What? It's south. Not west. South-Southwest is more accurate.

[eternal garnet]

ok then

[novel panther]

I finally got kyanite

[next current]

Nice. Grab a few more for the depth modules.

[unborn patio]

ya, its good to have some extra

[eternal garnet]

"some extra"
fills 3 large lockers with it

[unborn patio]

wdym, i dont do that

[sly kernel]

Look at this beautiful thing😩

Does anybody want me to check out any cool locations?

[forest mantle]

can someone give me a general idea as to where the tissues are?

BC I stil can't find them

[marble sandal]

It might be in a very cold spikey icey place maybe

[sly kernel]

How do I get in there?

Its like a high tech laser door

Like I know its a alien place but how do I get in.

[outer shale]

deep lylly

me spelling bad srry

ye

one time I drowned somehow even when i was not in the water area in there

so basicly I was low on oxygon and I swam in there as fast as I can and I thought I was fine but then I just died. I was so mad

[carmine bobcat]

What is up gang

[next current]

The ceiling.

[carmine bobcat]

But i’m out side

[next current]

Then the icy cold skies of 4546B.

[restive dragon]

I just found a chelrite

right next to a ventgarden

I need to get into the vent garden.......

[next current]

Little do they know that there is actually 2 chelicerates.

[restive dragon]

hiw fast are chelrites

wait what

[next current]

Moderately fast.

[restive dragon]

ok, my plan is set my seatruck to the side then go in with my seaglid

hopefully ill be inside before it sees me

saves

can chelrites see me from inside a ventgarden

[eternal garnet]

yes, but can't get you

[restive dragon]

AAAAA it noclipping through it OH MY GOD

[lean notch]

What do you need in the vent garden

[eternal garnet]

the plant

[restive dragon]

spiral plants

[lean notch]

You can just get it in purple vents 👁️ 👄 👁️

[restive dragon]

n o

and i just died

[lean notch]

You can :p

[eternal garnet]

you can, in the deep part under the small wreck

but the exact location is random

[lean notch]

What are vent gardens made of?

Enameled glass?

[eternal garnet]

it's a jellyfish

[lean notch]

It's not really jelly tho

[eternal garnet]

it's not from earth

[lean notch]

It no make sense

[eternal garnet]

I agree, it says weird things, no sense at all

[restive dragon]

ok i just did it again and made it lmao

now i have aton of spiral plants

[next current]

I hope you planted some of the clippings.

[restive dragon]

OH NONONONO theres one right next to me AAAAA

[eternal garnet]

you will never need "a ton"

[restive dragon]

I forgot there was 2

[next current]

Honestly, that's true.

[eternal garnet]

remember to PANIC

[restive dragon]

and its gone

[lean notch]

It's just an oversized shrimp dw

[restive dragon]

and its pitch black

can they outswim a seatruck?

[next current]

Yeah.

[restive dragon]

I got 8 spiral stuff is that enough

[eternal garnet]

maybe. Do you have perimeter defense upgrade?

[restive dragon]

no

but i got away so im fine

[lean notch]

Get itt

[eternal garnet]

have you found the pilots home? Because it's in there

[lean notch]

It's op

[restive dragon]

nope havnet been there

[eternal garnet]

yes, with it, no reason to be scaered of leviathans

But it is manual fire.

[restive dragon]

all ive done is found delta island, kappa mines, made seatruck and did some exporing

in like 5 hours

[eternal garnet]

when you get 300m upgrade, find the pilot, below the beacon

[lean notch]

No reason to be scared of leviathans in Bz in the first place but with perimiter you wont have to worry about them destroying your seatruck

[restive dragon]

I have that so ill do that once i made mk2

[eternal garnet]

mk1 is fine. there's air there

[restive dragon]

and once i made some power cells

[final flame]

@lean notch sea truck has perimeter thing like seamoth?

[next current]

Indeed it does.

[lean notch]

Its much more op in bz

You don't have to charge it and it only takes 1 energy every time you use it

[final flame]

Where is it I'm basically done with it and only have the depth upgrades

I've checked so. Many nests

[eternal garnet]

Monkeh!

[carmine bobcat]

what

[eternal garnet]

monkeh.

monkeh screech

[lean notch]

||Margs base||

[random compass]

instead of screaming in here, i'd suggest playing xD

[lean notch]

||on the floor||

[eternal garnet]

many miss it

[random compass]

don't actually need PD though

I for one never needed it, but I abused the terrain a little bit and did not bring all truck attachements into the deep biomes xD

[next current]

I dunno, I take a few pieces of Lead everywhere I go.

[random compass]

at some point I actually just started abusing the truck as a Seamoth and had enough spares to just build new Truckmainmodules to scatter around the world so I could just leave the Maintruck with the Modules and use the other ones to dive dangers areas xD

[random compass]

I mean you find Lead almost anywhere really...

I' saying you don't actually need Perimeter Defence though^^ you can easily make do without it 😛

[next current]

I mean. There is 1k+ Galena Outcrops in BZ. So it's not really rare. You have a point, good sir/lady.

[random compass]

I missed Cyclops 😦

[lean notch]

It's free

So why not get it

[random compass]

I often times had more trouble locating silver or even Iron, had more Lead than I needed xD

[marsh vigil]

Was Gold for me usually, sometimes lead. Saw plenty of Calverite, but always thought I had plenty of gold at home.
Meanwhile I ended up with a lockerful of copper, unlike in original Subnautica.

[random compass]

yeah idk man, Copper always seemed to replicate itself or duplicate idk

Left base with what I could swear was 10 copper in a locker and came back to 2 lockers full of it.

[next current]

Silver and Copper is plentiful in the Glacial Basin.

[random compass]

Yeah

I had difficulties locating sufficient Quartz for a small functioning base in the Basin/Plateau

[next current]

Spy Pengling Sites!

[random compass]

The shipwreck became seemingly more difficult to maneuver though, idk. Had some problems finding the last required piece for the tower >.<

[eternal garnet]

there's 6, and you need 3

[random compass]

Oh yeah, fun fact, I never actually built one xD
I realised that when I was almost through the game, I was like, oh wait, I have this Pengling in base, i never used it

The 6 are split in between different wrecks though

[marsh vigil]

Did you never find the PDA from Sam?

||There's a circled spot on the pengling site map, and a PDA elsewhere that tells you what's in it||

[random compass]

No I played that part when it was two that were split into the different Shipwrecks

[next current]

Indeed. 2 In the Stern, 1 in the Detached Thruster, 3 in the Bow.

[random compass]

yeah, and there was a time when it was only 2

and you needed either and they were in different locations altgether

which the game never told you xD

After the overhaul I more or less speedran that part, since you can find 3 in the Bow easily enough

[marsh vigil]

I'm not referring to the PPU

[lean notch]

I never cured the Levi either

[random compass]

I actually did 🤔

[final flame]

Yes

[marsh vigil]

Guess they moved the necessary stuff then
I only played BZ recently, just finished it today.

[random compass]

I did it the first time when the Basin had three different parts (I think), pre-story-overhaul iirc, and then I rediscovered it on my last fresh play-through on the second last update pre-release, but did not realise you can still cure it, because it no longer was an actual "quest".
I only randomly realised shortly before I finished the game, that it can still be done

But was already in the interactive outtro, so I had to sit through it, finish the game and then reload back to cure it xD

[eternal garnet]

originally, you didn't cure it, but steal samples from it and send to Sam

[random compass]

and they would send you a cure

actually iirc you would put samples on the rocket

and then received a cure through the rocket

or a drop

[eternal garnet]

there were sea emperors with cure, in BZ

[next current]

Nope, you had to send concentrated Enzyme 42 to the vesper station.

[final flame]

Oh yea in marks play through you like talk to sam or something

[random compass]

I seem to recall you receiving the cures recipe or something of relevancy from the returning rocket drop 🤔

[marsh vigil]

Sounds weightier than having it craftable from common ingredients. It feels odd after the trouble Riley went through in the original.

[eternal garnet]

irrelevant as you never craft it!

[marsh vigil]

Yeah, I know it's just backup in case you lose or destroy it somehow.

[random compass]

Okay I need to ask someone who recently played through it without having it played before:
How closely did you pay attention to AI-AN's demeanour and attitude/character?

particularly the emotional aspect, or rather lack thereof

he struggled with anything emotional, right? or am I just going insane?

[marsh vigil]

Yes, though he got a little better with time

[eternal garnet]

he doesn't know if he's alone. And he feels guilty

so nice that ||we get to know the answers in the end, j/k we don't||

[random compass]

yes, he did make some progress.
But then the last minute of the cutscene at the end ||he talks about how he has had hope and still has for his species and people to be alive|| like where the hell did that come from, it seemed so out of character to me, like an inconsistency almost, because he went from zero to ten in what ever amount of time has passed for the played to onehundred in then just minutes... kind of confused me, am I the only one?

[marsh vigil]

Possibly connected to the earlier conversation with Robin about hope?

[random compass]

yeah but he went from having no clue to understanding it in just a single hop

one of the reasons why to me it felt, there was a MASSIVE amount of lore or content cut from the end

[eternal garnet]

hope appears to be an avian creature -PDA

[marsh vigil]

But during the outro I was probably paying the least attention to Al-An. Distracted by the pretty visuals.

[random compass]

MAYBE it was cause I played through the game 4 or 5 times but only actually ever finished it once when the end was finally released. and had had a 3 months or 2 months break where I was waiting for it.

But to me it felt like that wasn't all that was planned

[marsh vigil]

I was actually surprised and pleased with how long the outro went on. Thought it would just be the ||teleporter||

[random compass]

Character Progression just made no sense to me for neither of the two. AI-AN going "oh yes, hope, I know that" from "emoshion? was dis?" mere minutes ago like that and Robin just right away leaving everything behind without a second thought after all that emotional fuzz over everything else before xD

IDK, just didn't connect for me 😛

[marsh vigil]

I also have lowered expectations for indie games

Does Robin mention living family other than Sam?

[eternal garnet]

Potato!!
Potato is family

Sam used to work in prosthetics. Potato has one artificial leg.

[carmine bobcat]

how did potato lose the leg though

it's never explained

[eternal garnet]

he is a couch walrus, in case you wonder what he is

[carmine bobcat]

cat

more like devil furball

[eternal garnet]

reaper accident. The reaper didn't make it

[carmine bobcat]

source: used to own 3 cats

[carmine bobcat]

uh what proof pleasse

if this is canon i'd laugh so hard

[eternal garnet]

the proof is in the pudding

[carmine bobcat]

how did she actually lose it

and I say she because potato doesn't have a uh..

[eternal garnet]

I can't remember seeing that info

[marsh vigil]

Absent dad apparently. But Robin does come off as perhaps valuing research above other things, bar ethics.

[carmine bobcat]

anyone remember ketchup

[marsh vigil]

So I'm not surprised ||she leaves||

[eternal garnet]

yes... pet baawhal

[next current]

I had a pet baawhal once. I named her "Mayonnaise".

[eternal garnet]

"baawhal" returns 100 year old newspaper print on google
