Its mercury II
But just 1
I think stern
Is there more?
I have an nvidia gtx 760 with 4gb vram and I’m surprised I’m not getting that warning
The gpu’s release date was nearly 9 years ago
I can't find x3j. I jut cant
Well I can now make the PPU
nvm I found it lol
People kept saying that BZ doesnt have that terror and shock factor. And it's true. But I like it.
I got it!
Hey guys I have a problem
I built myself a new pc so I had to reinstall all my games on it, I donwloaded S:BZ completely from nothing and for other games I simply transferred them from my laptop
But since I'm playing BZ, I don't have any ambient music, some voice logs are cut and THE JUKEBOX IS NOT WORKING at all 😭
Can anyone help me ?
This is epic now i can escape from situations
To be honest, as someone who played bz before subnautica, that is not true
OMG I just realized, the voice logs are cut randomly, since the beginning I only hear random sentences when characters talk, like the first one then long pause then another one and then dead silence
Since I played Subnautica before, I don't have that perspective. Hard to comment on it.
Maybe you are right. Maybe the first game just desensitized me.
I really don't know where this problem is coming from, I have sent a feedback yesterday but no answer
Also, 100 day mark yay
As a celebration, ill be making a teleportation module and tether tool
Is the range infinite?
Yes ofc
But the Ion Cubes are not infinite like in the first game, right?
Yep
Though they are alot, they are limited
This is not bad tho since only a bit of things require ion cubes
I guess
Ayy ok ill be using this whenever its necessary
Maybe verify it
Oh yes I completely forgot about that
2 files missing, 300MB of download, guess Steam simply forgot to install those
Did I rush it? I was just exploring and I'm barely 1 hour in
It's fine, you are supposed to find 'the thing' early on 👀
It worked, I have music now 
This architect lore is so cool.
I wonder if they have planned more content for BZ in the future.
uh
I don't think BZ will get a lot more content but maybe we'll get some expansion of the universe in the future
what the hell happened?
is it because the game thought i was still in the seatruck?
no
what is this?
A seatruck module is still a vehicle
and the moonpool detects vehicles so it thought you were tryna park a vehicle so it lifted it up
pda
thingy it contains logs from other survivors or information
First base in BZ.
@vernal drum Try clicking on this spot
Is there a way to crouch or smth?
I think u gotta make a ||spy pengling|| to get in there
I see
cant
i didnt save
good
Is getting deep in the Koppa Mining Site without a prawn suit (or any vehicle) a bad idea?
kinda because of those sorts of spiders (i call them scarabs)
you just have to swim above them but yeah still dangerous since you dont have any ways to get air
unless you have two oxygen tanks in your items
Well. I unlocked the Prawn and Thermal Plant down there. And managed to get out without dying
Didn't get too deep, I will call that a win
<@&85343211593166848> Is the save issue fixed yet?
Save issue?
whats that
sorry im a new player
First of all, this isn’t an appropriate thing to ping anyone about.
Second, you already asked (and pinged) about this two days ago, and Donya the community manager told you to fill out a bug report using our own #🐞bug-smash so hopefully you did. DON’T ping Donya, she’s already told you what you should do.
Third, it takes time to get patches completed and through certification. I have no idea where they are in reproduction steps, fixing the code, and pushing out a patch in terms of ETA, so you’re going to have to be patient. It’s inappropriate to ping anyone to ask about this every few days, so just wait. Sorry it’s happened to you, but patience is key.
woah hes angry @eager rock
can someone tell me im new in game
I’m not angry, but it’s not something to ping about
well it's not like i can just create a forum thread and check that everyday . . . yaknow . . . since the forum was closed
#immagetthehelloutbye-
Pinging mods is generally for emergency stuff (and devs shouldn’t be pinged at all unless they request to be)
It's the truth
i didn't ping any devs
I’m sorry I don’t know what the image is
I know you didn’t I’m just saying
ah
wdym?
lmao
Oh it’s a tether tool
#announcements lists all patches that are being made to the games. You can check in on there. But like Shadow said, the mod role is there for moderation issues 😉
???
So there is a save bug? What is the bug exactly?
Or #dev-check-ins , but that's not really a direct update. That's more a thing that shows of which changes have been made and will at some point appear in an update.
If you’re new to the game, just discover things as you go along
check #🐞bug-smash
It must be exceedingly rare, first time I’ve heard of it
not really there is a reddit post with a fair few people suffering from this
Few people out of how many thousands who’ve played, would be still count as “exceedingly rare”
does it hapen on pc
PS4 platform. Phew
for every person that voices there issues there are 3-10 that don't
Again, I’m very sorry this is happening, my only points were, don’t ping the mod role for this, and patience is key things don’t get fixed in a few days
Only bug in BZ so far for me, is that I can't find the Seamoth anywhere
Apparently they just weren’t getting used enough to continue
Because it’s not in the game
No way. I refuse to believe that. Must be a bug.
they replaced the seamoth with the "bus"
I am gonna travel to the first game's area and grab my old Seamoth. 2 years, should be fine.
XD
You can get it with console commands, but it’s blinding bright because it was removed and replaced with seatruck so it has no texture
Kinda hate the Seatruck, ngl.
The post you linked in the report are all kind of different issues and some outdated issues, someone is talking about Steam cloud saving, someone else is talking about crashes at times when saving and the main thread is about infinite saving. The infinite saving is probably a bug the devs are already looking into, but I can't guarantee that's the exact same issue. It's difficult to tell which issue is which with so little information 😅
I love the seatruck
It’s modular so adaptable
The only thing is I wish it had more storage capacity
and looked nicer
And I do wish it had a level inside
It fails to do anything the Seamoth could do, and anything the Cyclops could do as well. It's this weird limbo.
It's not as nimble
Its good enough for Bz
You couldn’t fabricate in seamoth, sleep in it, the cabin alone is rather nimble
If you just don’t want to like it, fair nuff, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a good vehicle
You could do those things in Cyclops. Without making expensive modules that have separate health and severely hindering your speed
Cyclops wouldn’t work on this map
Like I said, you don’t have to like the seatruck, but still doesn’t make it any less of a great vehicle
We will agree to disagree.
We all like different things
I love the seamoth for Subnautica
Of course, no ill will. I am not attacking you.
God what have I missed here
Stop comparing it to the vehicles from Subnautica and see it as a vehicle on it's own and it will be much better if you ask me 😉
Well. The modules are expensive. The storage modules are too small and I wish the docking module wouldn't dock things from its back
In general I think it’s impossible to compare the two games really, they’re so very different
But sure it's not completely bad.
Agreed. I am fine with BZ's less "horror" nature and most focused story.
I’d love to be able to interact with the prawn storage from inside the seatruck
Good game so far, I am enjoying it
wish the Seatruck had a button that would level it
Maybe using that panel that releases the prawn, let it access the storage
I find myself in some weird angles sometimes
Yeah the thing that displays the modules, I was surprised that didn’t display the level status of the seatruck “train”
Now I have to find the docking module, so I can take the prawn in Koppa. I am not walking all the way there without a jet upgrade or grappling arm lol
Have fun in deep purple vents then
Docking module fragments are there
I have marked the entrance. I dunno if I can go there yet. I only have mk1 depth on the seatruck
Yeah you need at least mk2
Well have fun
||Ok. Fiber Mesh requires stuff from a plant that is in Purple vents. Yet I need it to make MK2 depth for the Seatruck. I guess I can swim down there a bit and gather some stuff?||
Go to tree spires
Should be East of Delta Station
You find spiral plant inside the big ventgarden
Not too east though
I have a map mod I will find it.
First playthrough?
Surprisingly I never ran into it the first time
Same it just tried to eat me when i was inside of the big jelly
Only ran into the tree spires chelicerate on my 2nd visit
Fish plant or whatever it is
Spiral plant
No i mean the big jelly fish thing
Getting inside that thing was... an experience.
Still purple vents is safer
Got grabbed by that leviathan once though.
Map and light controls being separate on the glider is the best thing.
ventgarden
I hope I can make a base in one of those
You could switch off the map and lights on seaglide in Subnautica but it was a lot of toggling to achieve the desired combo. Much better in BZ, totally agree
Yes I immediately got a mod for Subnautica for that after completing Bz lol
I’ve never played with that mod mainly cause I was unable to find it on nexus
I can link it if you want
are there any leviathan messages in below zero?
In crystal caves, once
Actualy I think purple vents has one too
Don’t remember
Let's go
I have nothing other than depth module upgrades on the console. All upgrades need to be scanned?
yeah i recently got it too and went to take ||al-an skeleton||
I am gonna go to deep purple vents now. No idea how dangerous it is
i don t think it. is
That leviathan near the entrance is more like a nuisance
it s a ||checilerate|| right?
Yes. And it looks too pretty and cute to scare me
First game has regulated my heart, no worries
Eh, not for me
What do you mean
i wanna know how are the biomes called
You on PC?
like the biome where is ||al-an skeleton||
no i don t have bz on pc
finally, table coral
Well I think consoles also have the info PC has
Just bought below zero, time to fear the ocean
Hey, I think I have to make a base in Deep Purple vents
hmm
Purple Crystals. Ominous music.
Something is here
crystal caves has purple crystals
also don't rely on heat to power your deep purple vents base
Lemme guess. When they close, the heat goes down and it is unreliable?
no it's a constant 30C and it takes like 10 seconds for 1 power
omega lab's in lilypads
when you get the "there's a large anomalous mass of rock that has broken apart and risen" you know you're close
omega lab has a nuclear reactor
Well. I have the docking module now
I can take the prawn to koppa
Although, I am not sure I can drop down there without the grappling arm
I mean, can I get back up? Without the grapple and jet upgrade?
Slight spoiler but ||there's a jump jet upgrade in the koppa mine||.
Can I reach it without using the prawn?
Why don't you just take your prawn lol seems counterproductive not to.
That sounds too much like a good plan Tuna 👀
We don't do that here, please remind your self of the rules 😆
😔
Take the prawn without the grappling arm and jet upgrade and then struggle to get back up?
I just seaglide down there
I did, reached as far as I could. I guess I missed it
It's ||in a terminal near the old prawn suits||. Not super far down, just passed that first big drop down the mine shaft.
I wonder why they changed the drop of the table Coral
They are quite a bit rarer aren't they
Also, the battery component that replaced the acid mushrooms, is also rarer.I guess they tried to make batteries a bit harder to make?
ANd chips
I just got a heart attack
Entering the ||Crystal Cave||, I see magnetite, get out of the seatruck to get some in the zone with the mineral detector, and then well I think you know what message I got and of course it was too late :D
I went back to the seatruck with 5s of oxygen after going full speed with the seaglide across the entire place x)
no matter what i do the spy pengling instantly destroys itself (i´m not even touching q)
Where are you placing it
i had no islands in the region right now so i placed it on an ice flow (if thats what it´s called lol)
Maybe it thinks it's touching water
nope
Are you pressing the self destruct button on accident
no
maybe "q" button is broken
no works just fine
no one knows
Can I get a picture please
mac or pc
pc
F12 or F10 I think
what's up with the watermark covering nearly the entire top left half
No ask questions I just downloaded it
me on discord
thats steam but i can´t copy that
kinda a spoiler man
a late-game one too
F11
maybe
I'm not worried cause i finished game
no it is not a spoiler
@peak osprey win + shift + S. Highlight what you want to copy then ctrl + v into chat.
you know you must costruct body yeah?
Yes it is. No idea why you'd think otherwise.
Ok wait i'll try
ok
The thing is my Keyboard is a german one so it's different
You should have a program called the Snipping Tool that works similarly.

I'm too much of a tech noob to even remotly know what that is or where it is lol
Is it possible to premanently dismiss this?
would below zero water be salt water or fresh. i've been thinking about this for a bit, and while its pretty much confirmed to be salt water, its possible to be fresh
there are salt deposits
yea, but also salt water freezes at 28 something Fahrenheit and the normal temp for surface is like -2 to 3, which is barely 28
The water moves around because of the tides
true
So it won't freeze
The real question I have is why the water is so much warmer than the land
question
i have scanned a fragment of the snowfox in margeurite base how i find the second one
Around Phi robotics
The green one
ok
Best location for some lead close to the starting area?
It's not. I have a qwertz-keyboard too. Shortcuts like this are the same.
Ingame screenshots are F11 or F6 i'm not sure. But depending on where you got it it's probably F12, F11, F10 (or you use Snipping tool/Win+Shift+S)
Lead? Why is it so rare
What are the most useful/best Seatruck modules ranked from best to worst? 🧐
Wow. Prawn starting depth 400m? Max 1100?
Why?
900/1300/1700
Why such a nerf lol
Because the map isn't as deep
I see
||Anyway, I am in the Koppa mining facility right? I found 2 drill arm fragments, but one of them I cannot scan. Bug? Or can you just scan one in that whole area?||
Starting off in Below Zero was a bit more difficult than starting in OG Subnautica lol
Resources like Silver, Gold, and Lead feel more difficult to find in BZ compared to OG Subnautica.
But copper is more common now I think.. 👍
Yes, this. 👍
That's a common bug, there should be more
Found a 3rd one and scanned it. All good. Seems like a terrible bug tbh
Lead is also super rare imo
Yeah, there aren't even any large lead deposits anymore either
There are some caves in the thermal spires with a lot of it though
Are there no more mineral deposits in BZ?
There are large resource deposits
Seatruck needs to be without any modules to be docked in a moonpool?
Just not lead ones
Oh ok 👍
Yeah
On the other hand, I saw a ruby large deposit. Which wasnt in OG.
Where can I find moonpool data box/fragments?
I think I got it from a databox?
Yeah there are some new large deposits usually just in certain places
There's a databox with it in ||koppa mining site||
Oh ok thanks 👍
What dumbfounds me when I watch other people play below zero I see them do things that I never knew you could do. Like fit the sea truck carefully between the open doors in the mining shaft
I didn't know that the ||Pilot Last Known Location|| signal was talking about ||Marg||, or that the Glacial Connection existed at all, even though I looked through that cave
From the detached thruster of mercury II, where do I get to the other wrecks for it?
I found them before without a laser cutter, but now I have one.
I'm going to get subnautica below zero tmmrw
Nice
Which do you guys think is more relaxing? Subnautica the original or below zero
i'd say bz
just imagine u get jumped by a cockroach human sized with abs?
Magic
With sea truck or swimming/seaglide or with commands is also an option
Or with prawn suit
bz, the og subnautica was scawy
I'm at the thruster.
BZ. OG is actually scary and anxiety inducing sometimes.
I agree.
Meh
When you see the crabsquids lmao
I mean, Reapers, Crabsquids, Warpers, Bonesharks
The warpers terrify me more than anything lmao
Crabsquids terrify me the most🤣🤣
So scary fr
hello
Hi
bonjour
The persons green house should be around there
would you like to see something cursed?
No thanks, I'm not too far into the game.
I overcame my fear by chilling with them in creative and also breeding them in survival
it's not a spoiler
I have the seat rack defense system if that tells you how far I am.
It's also the whole setting of the game.
||In OG, you are the only survivor. You keep discovering that there are no more survivors. Everyone tragically died with no trace. There is a lot of darkness. Impending doom. You are sick with a killer infection, some ancient super-intelligent civilization's only way to stop it, was to literally create a gun that shots anything attempting to land or take off.
In BZ you are not alone. There is at least one other live person (so far for me) and an actual architect in your head. There is almost no darkness, because everything emits light, and most deep places have oxygen. The leviathans I have seen so far have nothing on the reapers. When it come to terror at least.||
That all does NOT mean I dislike BZ. I like it very much.
it has nothing to do with the story
kinda
Okay, go ahead.
seamoth in BZ
BZ is great. I like the way it looks, I like Robin (a bit, she annoys me sometimes). I dislike the Seatruck, I like the base building. I like the Leviathans and the creatures in general.
It's a great game. But different than the OG. And that is perfectly fine imo.
Weird.
Well, it's not supposed to be in BZ. So obviously its model looks weird.
Still haven't found the Hover Bike. I hear it's terrible.
How do I find the other parts of the mercury II from pilots last known position?
it's model is the same but all the text from it is now just "placeholder" and all the textures are removed
||ditto the reaper part, there's nothing scarier than a four-armed monstrosity roaring in your face||
Also, I just scanned the [SPOILERS] ||shadow leviathan|| and died trying
Well, THAT will wake you up.
Got up on the ice sheet, above the chelicerate. I placed a beacon. I proceeded 100m south of it, and started building a base.
JUST as I started building toward the water, the chel popped out of the water, in front of me, attacking a crypto.
Shrimpy, you are supposed to be over THERE.
It seems the Chelicerate shares the Reaper's tendency to not know its place.
You know what that means. They have to go.
He went home. He was just chasing food.
Though it does sort of ask for a scanner set to chelicerate permanently, just to keep tabs on his hunting trips.
with commands you can get cyclops upgrades but not the cyclops lol
chat has died
it has returned to being dead
o r h a s i t ?
y e s
o h
bye
If anyone jus wanna chill and vc Amd vc I’d be down
i have the blueprints for the ||Architect skeleton|| and the materials but im not sure where to make it can anyone tell me?
||You have to do that in an alien facility at the deepest point in the game||
You'll be better off finding the other 2 and bringing all the materials down at once
what are the triggers for the ||alan distress message before he downloads himself to you||?
Entering the twisty bridges
Update Root-motion with VRIK!
I scanned the ||architect artifact pk8|| but the symbol didn't disapear from my hud like the other|| artifacts|| anyone know why?
You may need to disable it from the beacon menu
Yeah ||pk8|| doesn't go for some reason
Is ||Margarita the woman who stops you when you reach her “out of bounds territory”?|| 🤔
Yeah, ||Marguerite Maida|| stops you when you approach ||Delta base||
What happened to Ryley Robinson in BZ?
Or he ded
my bois say hi
Friendly
Chelicerate is scariest lev in bz change my mind
Shadow is scarier imo
I think that the Chelicerate is as dangerous to my seatruck as the terrain.
To my Shattuck.
Autocorrect
facts😆😆
How far in the game is the greenhouse? %?
i think u can go whenever but it’s on some iceberg
it took me a long time to find it, i’d recommend looking it up
really nice pic i took
||spy pengling can be found in phi robotics center||
These guys are very friendly and you can ride them
The only thing i hate about subnautica below zero. Going on land to find the last part of al-an’s body getting constantly attacked by iceworms and getting lost on the island and spending 30 minutes to find a way back to my seatruck
I’ve run in circles a lot. I recommend watching a guide, it helps. Hylian Mom on YouTube is pretty good👍
75
I have a different opinion than everyone else but I like bz better than sub 1
Tbh i like sub 1 more
it has a bigger map and the music is better
i also like the old levis better
Sub 1 is great but for me bz I could play all day and grind it while sub 1 I would have to take breaks cause I was either terrified or confused on what to do
I think bz music is way better
True
I just enjoy being able to play all day and enjoy it still
While sub 1 I would stop and play mc or something
if the || frozen levi was alive || i would like bz more
I love the horror aspect of sub 1 but like the adventure aspect of bz better
Sub 1 have more adventure cuz its way bigger
But I like the freedom of sub1 while bz is just telling you where to go
But I already miss getting up and playing bz for 5 hours a day
Bro my game crashed me on that zone was my last save
Bruhhhhh i hate those ice worms they got my prawn suit health from 100 to 44
I wish you good luck
Just explored reset architect artifacts for new ion cubes and found margs greenhouse
true, the part about it I hate so much is it's eyes and the size, he's a chonker
well actually i accidentally ran into that exploring lmao it was fun running in my prawn suit, hardcore btw
i beat the game in hardcore, first time ever playing and it took me roughly 37 hours with exploration and vibing to music and building bases, messing with shadow lev, etc
||Who loves Dantdm?||
I really liked Dantdm's Subnautica gameplay.
unlimited power
380
Subnautica Below Zero is beautifully eerie and dangerous!
When I first entered the ||Deep Twisty Bridges|| the ||spiky trap plant|| scared me almost as bad as a Reaper Leviathan… lol
The ||Squidshark|| thingy as well
Should I make the Storage or Fabricator module first for the Seatruck? 🧐
I have blueprints for both
You gotta have both
Lethal Potato might mean that they're both useful, but it's up to personal preference. I only used the Storage Module myself.
It goes down to 8132 and then it teleports you to a random location in the shallows.
Ye...
Never seen that before
So I went past 8132... :P
8192*
Interesting question, wonder if anyone knows/can test this:
We know that bases draw power from the oldest (i.e. least recently built) power source, try to deplete it, and then draw from the next oldest power source.
My question is: does it count "oldest" from the start of construction, or the end of construction?
Example:
- You start to build a bioreactor
- While it is still a blue ghost partially built object, you build and finish a solar panel
- You go back and finish the bioreactor
In this example, which is the "oldest" generator? The bioreactor was started first, but the solar panel was finished first
is there anything like the subnauticamap.io for below zero?
Up-to-date interactive Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero map of biomes, resources, lifepods, wrecks and all the other points of interests and collectibles.
thx
Haven't played below zero in a while, tried starting a new game. Keyboard and mouse not working at all.
Can anyone enlighten me please if this is a known issue?
can anyone put the coords for the entrance to the Koppa minng site?
I can show you on a map if you want
If that would help
Anyway, I have a beacon on the entrance. ||It's about -389,-818||
Why am I swimming in my Seatruck?
swim outside
ok so i went to margeurite greenhouse and i took al-an skeleton what i should do now
in terms of the story of the game
||Sam died trying to remove the last bit of Kharaa. Maybe you can
find where, and finish the job.||
This worth the ||Ion Cube||?
"worth". Maybe. You need to remove rebreather to put it on. Which is fine in many places
Does it need to be recharged?
no
Oh god. I ran out of lead again.
Please, tell me where I should go to fill my inv and the prawn with lead
there's no great spot for it. Scanner room. twisty bridges or thermal vents
I have a scanner room in twisty bridges, near the pod. But I haven't found any magnetite at all to make the range upgrades
magnetite is common in glacial basin ||in pengling caves and in the Phi base cave behind the room||
Wiki says Lilypads deep
Oh my god
||A sea monkey gave me a piece of lead.||
Wow, the chances. The one thing I need
Haven't played below zero in a while, tried starting a new game. Keyboard and mouse not working at all.
[12:03 PM]
Can anyone enlighten me please if this is a known issue?
Oh
I haven't heard of this one. PC? Steam?
PC
I wanted to say Reset key config, but you can't click. Let me look where config is stored and you can delete it
Nope
Before i start the game, under options, i don't see options for the keyboard. Is that normal? Does my game think i'm using an XBox perhaps?
Try verifying maybe
I need to know if you're on steam. Even if you have a controller, you can use key+mouse. At the same time.
Yip, PC via steam. I have both games and normal subnautica is fine.
Go here and delete /move the old files inside.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero\SNAppData\SavedGames\options
Close game first
Will give it a go, much appreciated. Was considering just reinstalling but will try the suggestion first.
does uninstalling remove config though? Not sure
Mmm, not sure hey. Lets see what happens. Thanks again.
I assume I can't plant rotten plants?
you can!
Pretty sure you can
So those potatoes I found far away in a wreck. I will be able to plant them?
yes
no... she was last seen diving down here.
||Because I went there and all I found was a big Mercury II wreck||
that's nice. Want pilot clues?
you might want to spoiler tag that
neh.
I will search further when I finish what the ||wreck||
Any reason to pick up ||depleted rods||?
I guess the ||recyclotron|| thing?
no
So no reason to pick them up, got it
put them under your bed at night. It "enhances" your DNA
Yeah everyone thinks pilot last location is the mercury 2
||This wreck is amazing. SO many rods and power cells ||
Any clue if below zero will be coming to game pass on Xbox one so I don't waste my money like I did with the normal Subnautica
||Sea Monkeys do that gift animation, but they are holding nothing.||
I think they drop the item sometimes
||Nope, nothing. Happened twice. They are approaching me, the raise their hands and nod but they are holding nothing.||
and you don't take it and they have a sad
Yes
and they hate you forever and ever
They're gifting you a sense of pride and accomplishment™️
Trademark courtesy of EA 
But they are sad after. Not my fault.
Trivalves > cuddlefish
I was skeptical myself until I saw them in action. They're adorable.
yea
personally i like them
they're probably not what people were expecting for a companion but i reckon they do their job pretty well
||I can't find anything about that Pilot. Went deep though and found an architect skeleton.||
||Just look around. The base is roughly 500 metres away from the entrance and 350 meters deep. Make sure you bring a beacon so you can mark the location. I marked the location of every place of interest using beacons.||
||Also I hope you scanned the skeleton||
||I scanned the skeleton yes.
What entrance?||
||There is a marked marking the "Last known location" of the pilot. Enter that and just explore around a bit. Here's a Tip. Look at the ceiling. If you find yourself in a cave system then you're heading the right way. There will also be some light sticks scattered around when you get near the base.||
I was in a very confusing cave system with ||anemones|| or smth. At some point I found the ||skeleton||.
You mean that cave?
||Are there massive flowers in said cave?||
||That look like mushrooms kinda? Cotton smth?||
||Yep you're in the wrong cave. The cave you need to be in is right below the waypoint which says "Pilot last known location"||
||Well, I found the skeleton down there so its fine||
Had to leave because I ran out of water
Minor late game spoilers! ||That skeleton is needed late game.||
Yeah I know what the overall objective is.
First time around I made no connection whatsoever between ||Maida & “pilot” aka last know pilot’s location|| lol. I kept trying to find some PDAs or wreckage or something thinking it was another story about one of the Alterra crew that’d had a misadventure and got wrecked in lillypads or something lmao. Only next time through did I figure out it who’s “position” it was referring to😂
lol
I don’t really think of a prawn user as a “pilot”
fair enough
Operator would be a more suitable term
Honestly I feel maida's story is just kind of tacked on there
You don't fly with the prawn through the air? 😔
Like its cool to see her in the second game but her story arch doesn't really have an ending
No, you don’t. Not what I consider flying anyway Thom
maybe her story arch will get finished in a third game
I mean you can catch some air on a skateboard, skiis, etc, those aren’t considered flying either😛
Weird opinion, but I hope they don't continue Below Zero's story in the future.
Why not
I personally would like a spin off game which continues the story of robin and ALAN.
If love to know what happens to the ||precursor race|| but I think I’ve seen enough of planet 4546B or whatever it’s called lol
I hope they at least have one game on the planet 4546B to at least give us alive gargantuan levithian or the frozen levithian to deal with
Because I think the Architects will be too much of a part in such a game. What I loved about them was the mystery and mind blowing moments (such as the original Subnautica), Below Zero already pulled it a bit too far at times for me with the constant presence. I wouldn't want a game that is almost guaranteed going to be focused around it, then they would become the standard instead of the "wow factor".
I feel like they’ve tapped out gameplay on the planet
yeah
So, keep the mystery you mean?
the issue is with a lot of video game series is that the more games that are released the more sense of mystery is lost
the lore is expanded upon and eventually there's no sense of mystery left
It would be cool if we saw the architects that had levithian species that’s one of the main creatures in the game that and the peeper
I still personally would really like a spinoff which continues the story of ALAN and Robin.
What I’m saying Tuna is it would need a different direction than just doing the same stuff that Subnautica & BZ did or it’d feel monotonous, imo. That’s why I think a change of venue would be nice
Depends on the setup.
I guess
But I feel a lot of people would be a bit upset because it wouldn't be on 4546B anymore
What I'm afraid of is that they would pull it way too much towards a story instead of survival. Because lets face it, you can't just make a game with the current BZ ending and not have a good story around it. But exactly that is what I wouldn't want to see from a new game.
The below zero ending ends on a cliff hangar as well
Which is okay because the game would be waay too long otherwise
Too short for me tho
ok
hello
ok i have a question what s the name of the biome where is ||al-an skeleton||
that is ||crystal caves||
no i don t mean crystal caves i mean the red biome with all of those plants
no, that's wrong. it's ||deep lilypads / flowering spores||'
thank you
Yes. It’s same as on other platforms
You have to find more jukebox discs across the map, I think only one is unlocked by default?
Maybe Yassanef means user mp3s
yes
Oh, can’t do that afaik
oh, ok thanks
The jukebox is pretty neat, but the sound propagation is annoying to me. The speakers work really weird, such that the sound field is really awkward & unreliable no matter where I put them😔
It's not stereo!
Why can't we just plug in a headset in the jukebox 😆
Lol
Yeah is there any way to turn that off?
Turn what off?
No, maybe that there's a mod for it though. But normally not to my knowledge.
Have to put speakers literally everywhere to listen normally
Yeah 😔
Dolby Atmos probably doesn't help with that either :p
I want to be able to wear the headlamp with either rebreather or warm hood. It doesn’t make sense it must take up the entire slot. In whatever future century I’m sure they have figured out how to allow a headlamp attachment for a scuba mask or balaclava lol. I mean we have such things now tbh
Yh it should just take one of the chip upgrade slots imo
It's not that great of a design choice yeah, above water it's a little useful I guess, but even then I prefer the cold suit. Underwater the rebreather is basically a must.
Yeah that would be a simple compromise. Use HUD chip slot & make it swappable
Basically no one uses it as is
Having a hands free light would be really nice though😔
is going to the bulb zone necessary for beating the game?
bcz i dont wanna get jumped by a crab squid
bulb zone doesn't sound like the right game
you are fined one peeper. move along
Lead is so astronomically rare to find in Below Zero
There are some caves in the thermal spires that connect to the top of the ||Koppa Mining Site|| that have a lot
Oh ok thanks 👍
It's not that rare the outcrops are just nearly invisible on the rock
||You sure? Pretty sure I found that skeleton in Lilypads.||
I was wrong., see below
Oh sry.
Took this shot, and I’m loving it.
Is there a "point of no return" in this game's story? I wanna build bases in every biome before I finish it.
Nice. There isn't much love for the arctic
yes, it's super obvious, game tells you to finish any business before going further
I see
You save at that point, and you can keep playing after
If I was planning to build a base though I'd want to stop doing story before I ||built alan's body so the seamonkeys still give gifts and don't steal tools|| but yeah that's pretty much fine
your plan will work
I also changed my mind about the Seatruck. Being able to get my Prawn Suit everywhere, without having to pilot a Cyclops is really useful.
||A Farbricator Module, 2 Storage Modules and a Docking Module are all I need.||
I did experience an audio bug at the facility where that happens so I probably wouldn't want to do that either because it can be annoying and happens all over the map when you're in water so I wouldn't want to go there either but that's after what I just said earlier so
Fabricator module has so much wasted space which is annoying to me
I have the moreingots mod. Being able to pack any resources I find on the go nets me insane storage capabilities
the storage capacity of the seatruck isn't very good in general but you can get mods to increase the capacity of the lockers to be closer to the amount of storage you would get if you put standard wall lockers in that much space
Fabricator and moreingots is enough tbh. I just park the Seatruck very near an area and start scavenging with the Prawn Suit
I don;t get the point of the other modules though. Like sleep and aquarium
Seems like a waste of speed
yeah
I kinda want to make them all just because but I wouldn't go everywhere with them
And the teloprtation module I guess is... fine? I dunno
I wish they'd kept working on the planter module because I would actually use that for food unlike the aquarium
Instead of a fabricator module, they should have made a multipurpose module, in which you can build small stuff
Teleportation wouldn't be very useful to me because I usually don't leave my seatruck and go exploring in an area with my seaglide
||It also uses up Ion Cubes. And they are finite here.||
Me neither lol.
I am trying to find the horsepower and afterburner upgrades now
Scanned 1/3rd of both
I think that would be a challenge though because the Seatruck can change pitch and tilt up and down so it would't be level
They'd have to sort that out
same thing happens to the cyclops in the event that it tilts forward because of creatures or terrain
They did. You can't walk in it if the floor is more than 45deg. You enter/exit the seat instead
I know
you can still get into the modules of the seatruck when it isn't very level tho
still less than 45
wrong game, I believe this one is Earth
Mixed reviews, not available on steam
can you keep playing your save file after you beat the game
@eternal garnet sorry to ping but there is like no one on ;-;
yes, yes you can.
after you go to the ||Homeworld?||
yes
any proof?
because,. it's not possible to save once you start the end. So your save is before that
also I've done it
after you are in the ||Homeworld|| and the credits roll
can u play after that or does it delete ur save file
One caveat: there's a bug, making you invulnerable if you load the save after the end. Fix: restart game
it never deletes your save, except for hardcore
idk if I trust tho
I wish you could copy save files
but the catch is you couldn't get achievements
you can copy saves, on pc
I don't see how achievements matter here. If you use a cheat, it sets a flag in your game that is stored in your save file (if you save)
if you don't save, it never happened
oh uh
im talking about how on like all console
there should be a thing like where you could uh
copy ur file but
it wouldnt let u get achievements even if u didnt cheat
I don't see why not
@carmine bobcat after you beat the game, it reverts back to the last time you saved. Unfortunate bugs aside, your save file is only deleted by you, manually, in every game mode. The obvious exception to this rule is the permadeath experience in hardcore where it's deleted upon death.
Meatie was right, you can take their word for it 😄
im having trouble finding east arctic
also @safe sun sorry for ping. wanna be friends?
👀
I'm a bit lost. I'm trying to disable the tracking satellite tower, but i'm not clear on how you're supposed to do that
I found an override module port, but have no module or any idea how to get 1
Did you find and visit the pilot
Margerite, yeah and I got snow fox blueprint bits
you scanned a module at her place
It needs a part, that you will find in ||the three ship wrecks in purple vents and lilypads||
ok. thanx
also on her floor, if you missed it, is a super important truck upgrade
not sure if it's a bug or a feature, but back on Wednesday, somehow I managed to short out my seatruck using the perimeter defense upgrade
short? The squid shark can disable power for 5 seconds
ah, so it was the squidshark that did it. I just saw my power tanked to 0 when i used the upgrade to escape a squidshark and it came back a few moments later
For real is there any help on bugs? I reported everything on here and got no feedback.
I saved while entering my seatruck and now I don't have anything to click on. I am just floating in the water unable to move using my mouse, I don't drown. Clicking f3-f8 to type /kill does not do anything.
It is a bummer because my 5 year old and I were playing together and she does not understand why we had to stop but it isn't like I can revert to an old save.
Don't think /kill is a thing... Have you tried "warpforward 5"
commands have no / before them. I don't know if kill is a command. "warpforward 5" is
Yes, kill is a command
above water bases be like:
I believe that all new Subnautica BZ players should have played and completed Subnautica OG before starting BZ for the best experience possible.
who wants to play subnautica with me (nitroxlauncher multiplayer)
I don't think there is nitrox for bz
and you'd probably have better luck asking in the nitrox server, invite's in #subnautica-modding
Are their any plans to implement Fidelity Super resolution?
I think Below Zero is on fire
Subnautica: Above one
subnautica: burning waters
wh what are you going to do to that sea monkey baby?
use it as fuel
ehehe le edgy has arrived
would play dat
I mean I guess what I'm suggesting would be way worse
hey guys
what were your seatruck setups?
personally I just had the seatruct, storage module and a docking module
Yeah same
when exploring i only took the seatruck
and when i entered the ||fabricator caverns|| i only took the seatruck for greater mobility
but whenever I do resource runs where I get a lot of titanium, quartz, or copper, I bring 2 storage modules and a fabricator, so I can compress them into ingots, glass, and wire
tbh now that I think about it I probably should've done that too, I only used the prawn when gathering kyanite for depth modules and I didn't collect hardly any materials other than that first run either, so I should've just taken the seatruck main cabin
main reason i got it late game is that i didn't know how to get into the deep twisty bridges because i confused the deeper part of the regular twisty bridges for the twist bridges
by the time i got it i already had all my storage needs sorted
i had an array of 3 bases
one in th twisty bridges. this was the hub
one in the glacial bay
that was never built up fully
and one in the lily pad islands
which was pretty big
I pretty much only built 1 base in the twisty bridges, I usually bring plenty of food and water and power cells, and go back to my main base a lot and recharge there anyway
I used aquariums for food
two of my bases were fitted with aquariums and greenhouses
the one in the twisty bridges and lilypad islands
I had an outpost in the lilypads that I built after I got low on water my first time I went there. It only had a bioreactor, water filtration machine, a growbed, some fabrication, storage, and recharging stuff, and a scanner room I never used
I never built a scanner room
it still ran out of fuel shortly after I left every time and I got a notification about oxygen production going offline there
all my bases used control rooms
They all had names
"Alpha 1" - main hub/twisty bridges
"Alpha 2" - never built up/glacial bay
"Alpha 3" - Grew a bit bigger than expected/lilypad islands
My main base had both
I've been planning to build a really big base in survival since I finished the game
Is it worth having a very shallow base?
My main base is 15m deep in the twisty bridges.
what is tthe safest way to get diamond?
Sea treaders path probably
They create shale outcrops
@cerulean notch
Jellyshroom cave is probably easier and only a bit more dangerous
on Below zero
not in 1st subanutica
My bad I'm blind
Deep twisty bridges then
It's pretty safe down there just avoid the 2 squidsharks
well ok then
Can someone please confirm if i should have a tab that says keyboard? Below Zero, PC, Steam version.
Yes you should have that, so try for example verifying your game files.
I reinstalled the entire game. No joy
Reinstalling often leaves a lot of files behind in my experience, so it can't hurt to verify anyway I guess 🙂
Ok, thanks. Will try that.
Can someone remind me which biome has Root Pustules? I remember it was close to the starting area.
Artic Kelp caves
I now have unlocked every achievement in bz
Alright, should be enough.
What you playin?
subnautica
but im a begginer
that robot that got in my head is last thing that happened
Twitch or youtube?
do you guys ever hate when
when what? I can't read that language
who does that
does what?
Is that a really big moonpool, or is the FoV cranked up to maximum?
Lol.
attach a module right under the moonpool
I mean, I cant be the only one that has those somewhere else and just drive the Seatruck there
has what somewhere else?
I don't get what they hate?
the modules. I think they hate that the moonpool grabs the seatruck right after he attaches the module
oh, but that is an advantage right?
The scanner has been mostly worthless for me. Look at that, about 20 Stalker teeth in the sand.
Erm, wrong channel?
How do you get into the frozen leviathan cave?
Magic
very useful.
Ikr
Just warpforward 5 and go get them
fr, how do you get in? I can't find the cave entrance anywhere in the glacial basin
Idk i just found it, YouTube probably has a tutorial tho..
thx, that actually is useful
Theres a long way there. Found it or still need help?
I’m lucky to have never died of hypothermia because I knew how to make my way around
And if I think about it collecting snow stalker fur wasn’t even that necessary cold suit helped for a bit of scouting but I already had a snowfox by that time
Or just use prawn suit :p
I died of oxygen once. In BZ. I feel so dumb and terrible.
Happens to all of us 😅
i died once so far
I never died once in below zero, it's hard to even putposely die
Even the leviathans are more or less an obstacle than an actual threat
And, may I say, less terrifying
Hello, Does anyone know how to install the seaTruckArms mod for subnautica Below Zero on a Mac computer using Steam? Any help or pointers are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Only time I died in my first full run of the game, was because of that cutscene glitch in the red crystal caves, around the prawn suit.
Did the cutscene, Prawn was destroyed, no way to get back to the surface.
Part of me regrets building my base so close to that thing...
Though it is a bit of an adrenaline rush to stand at the edge of the ice, and dive in when its looking the other way, just to take off with my seaglide.
you can just kill it. it won't respawn. Truck bump it
Its more fun with some actual danger in the game.
yes - this is one of the secrets of subnautica success
Ha. Building a seatruck module, and I swam over to get it.
Didn't see the chel, so I turned around. It had snuck up behind me while I was on the crafting platform, and was only 70m away... and the module landed on me in the water, as I realized this.
So, this run of the game, besides having a dual-scanner base directly over grumpy there, I have each section of my base separated, but connected via power grid.
Just about to add a moonpool section, and I have to decide:
Do I want to swim back and forth to the moonpool from the surface base sections, or do I build a long ladder tube up onto the ice from it?
Ladder tube is instant. Go for that
Looks at the BZ Switch stream 😂
Li: purple vents (on top) or thermal spires or deep twisties.
monkey caves in lilypads (I think)
I got to the ending and still have 3 lock(hidden) achivments left

Yeah, I had one left when I finished. I never bothered making the snowfox.
Yeah a whole part of the story isn't even required to beat the game for some reason
To be fair, I didn't take the prawn up, either. I just kept running until I got where I needed. Ice Worm apparently can't keep up entirely.
Did THE Obraxis respond to my comment?
yeeeeeees.
I've ||injected the antidote into the frozen lev, is there anything else I should do here?||
find a hard-to-spot pda in the blue rubble in the entrance. That is all
before or after the ||bunker room thing||
after
yes
I need your opinion! 
Do you think enough time has passed since the release of Below Zero to title a video "How ||Maguerite Maida|| survived", even though it includes a slight spoiler?
is the thing still alive
on YT? Yes, go ahead
All I have left is to find Tissue scan
||if its dead how did the antidote get pumped around its body||
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
that's a clue, but I have no answers
||Marguerite Maida is awesome.||
Agreed
The Fabricator module is the most useful Seatruck module imo since it comes with the fabricator + a storage locker. 👍
so much wasted space though
yo mama so fat they couldn't fit 1% of her in a seatruck with 100 storage modules
uh. don't meme here
Sooooo are we getting a third game ||on the architects planet||
yeah go to #memes-and-media for that
yes, just wait about 5 years.
-the guy who just said a yo mama joke
):
"Fans shouldn’t expect that anytime soon, however. Kalina confirmed that developer Unknown Worlds has a new project in the works, which is entirely separate from Subnautica. While he didn’t share any exact details on it, Kalina says that the game is currently in development and that fans may get some news on it later this year."
😤
I thought they were just going to do Natural Selection 3
I think some of the dev livestreams have been dropping massive hints on what. Or that was a side project
The grav trap is so incredibly useful!
To kill birds.
Lots of Arctic peepers and bladderfish
