[eternal garnet]

Most convenient fuel: pepper fruit growing right next to it

[spring sequoia]

use nuclear reactor

[carmine bobcat]

I'd do that if i didnt need 4 lead

gonna take me like hours to get that much

anyway the power costs are really low atm i have no need for nuclear

mmm spicy fruit salad

[graceful crag]

🍉

[sonic hedge]

does anyone have any solution to this?

i've done everything in the trouble shooting guide

i'm about to loose alot of progress if i can't make the game save

this issue came out of no where, i could save perfectly fine before

[jade sand]

This is my favorite piece of game design ever

It reminds me of the first game. It's beautiful in explaining the function of the fragment you're about to find, as well as guiding you to find it

absolutely amazing. I will always love this.

[torn breach]

Do you still get some benefit from wearing the cold suit without the hood

[worldly condor]

yeah but not as much

[fast flame]

Hi @eternal garnet wsp

[eternal garnet]

moo?

[jade sand]

remember that your head is one of the places you lose the most heat irl

[torn breach]

I'm not in the artic zones right now but was just curious. I'm about to start building my main base part of which is above ground

[jade sand]

The head and extremities are the most important places to cover in the event of being in a cold environment

In game tho yeah you should try and wear the hat

[torn breach]

Yes, I know that. I grew up in below zero temps. However the game mechanics don't necessarily follow real life rules

Which is why I asked

[jade sand]

I did wait until after you had an actual answer to talk about the parallels

[torn breach]

Yes, and thanks for the answer. I kinda miss the cold winters. In the last 15 years or so the weather here has mellowed out quite a bit.

When I was a kid we saw winters as cold as -70 Fahrenheit

[jade sand]

Wow, that's incredible! And sad, I'm sorry you lost that

I've always been in relatively temperate climates - it's considered "cold" here, but it's not that cold

[torn breach]

Ya, hurts the farmers the most. Warmer winters means less snow and less run off for crops

[jade sand]

Oh shoot, I hadn't even thought of that, where ya from?

[torn breach]

South Dakota

[jade sand]

Oh shoot that's not far from me. I hope this winter brings good cold and good snow

[torn breach]

Not likely, but we can always hope

[jade sand]

thanks global warming

Anyone else a big fan of the electric octopi by the land?

[opaque harbor]

Probably a bit late to the party but if you are still having this issue it'd be really interesting to look at the logs for it. If you don't mind messaging @scarlet oriole, following the prompts there to what you were doing leading up to the issue and then uploading your log file as an attachment, it would be super helpful for further investigation.
Logs are located here: C:\Users\<your PC>\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero and are titled player.log or player-prev.log

[torn breach]

The pushed my seatruck away from the dock and up high in the water. I had a heck of a time getting back in

After I did went on a killing spree using the truck as a battering ram

[carmine bobcat]

the deadzone in this game is so damn scary

[torn breach]

Haven't gone there yet

[carmine bobcat]

Unlike the ghost leviathans in SN, these things dont glow in the dark

Frantically trying to find where they are after hearing the last noise they made is terrifying especially because usually you fail to locate it before it charges again

[torn breach]

Sounds like a party

[carmine bobcat]

Truly

[torn breach]

Probably won't get around to check that out till after I do a full playthrough

[carmine bobcat]

I stumbled in on it by accident

[torn breach]

In the first game I ended up building a base down at the bottom of the dead zone. Took forever doing it without cheats

[carmine bobcat]

was just going further out to try to find story stuff and i was getting low on hunger, so i went out with my thermoblade to find some fish. Then it got dark, and was too late by then

[torn breach]

I wasn't paying attention out in the art expires ended up with a ice worm crawling up my backside

[carmine bobcat]

lmao

The ice worms are really good at adding atmosphere but up front they arent that scary

But seeing one of them just throwing around a snow stalker in the distance with those screeches is terrifying

[torn breach]

After the first jump scare you kind of get used to them

[warped shadow]

Someone reported that the laser cutter can’t cut ice

[carmine bobcat]

i have no idea where to go lol

i need to find the last ||architect ||cache but ||alan ||isnt giving me any info

and i still have no idea what to do after that

[warped shadow]

When you get near the area he should tell you about it

[torn breach]

Which one ya need? I found two of them without him saying anything

[carmine bobcat]

can i have a small hint on where to get nickel without any spoilers or an exact location, just general hint

because i need for depth mk3

[jagged hollow]

Helllo I'm new here - is this the right channel to ask about base help? I'm having an issue I didn't encounter with the first game despite a very similar setup.

[carmine bobcat]

For below zero base help yeah probably, #🏠awesome-bases could also get you help but people mostly just show their bases there

[torn breach]

What you need help with

[ancient swift]

Wait hol up I have a question

What did organic alan look like

Or any architects

[torn breach]

From comments he has made I think they are able to change shape depending on their needs

[next current]

||The Architect Vessels are Biomechanical.||

[ancient swift]

So they were always robot cyborg things

[next current]

||No, The mechanical part came in when they started transferring to new and more advanced vessels.||

[torn breach]

is there a way to get rid of the glare caused by lights. if anything having the seatruck's lights on makes it harder to see

[sonic hedge]

Alrighty, i just did that Bug Report thingy. I couldn't upload the log files, i can try sending them to you in DM's.

however for that you'd need to friend me on discord

[opaque harbor]

you can post them here in chat and i can check over one of them too

I can read over the report too

cheers

clean that up for ya

[sonic hedge]

Alrighty then, tell me if you need any furher information. I'll try my best to help

[ancient swift]

So they were organic then transferred when the made the ||sanctuary places||

Hello artyom

[next current]

They're all organic vessels were their original bodies. Like how we humans are all organic.

[ancient swift]

So they have robot shells with real organs

How do you put spoilers tag on images on mobile

[next current]

|| <-- These on both sides.

||Part 1
Part 2||

[ancient swift]

On images tho

||

Huh

Do not question the image

I seen this and thats why I'm asking

[jagged hollow]

Whoops, had to finish making dinner and I got distracted.
So I currently have two multipurpose rooms (I have the blueprints for a large room, planning on moving my base soon) with a couple windows in one room, I have two solar panels (above water) which were more than enough for my fabricator, coffee machine, and battery charger even at night, but I just finally got a bioreactor and a water filtration machine. I had this exact setup in the first game no problem, but now my water machine is absolutely crawling and the power generation/usage is at equilibrium even during the day. does that sound like a glitch or? I'm so confused. I guess I could just throw up some more solar panels.

[torn breach]

got the first part of my base made(exterior anyways, still got to do the interior) this is going to be my garden. getting the large room placed where i wanted it was rather frustrating

[jagged hollow]

How do you get into it?It looks like it didn't put the stairs at the hatch like it should

[torn breach]

no, no stairs. not sure how to do that. access is from under water part of base

which i haven't made yet, just a tube with access hatch

i had to back a long ways a way to get the whole thing in the pic, its actually quite high

[jagged hollow]

Mine is above water (not that high) and the stairs just appear when you place a hatch above water.

You might be able to get rid of that and just put a hatch in, see if it works. It should!

[ancient swift]

Hey uh I hate to be the bearer of bad news but #🏠awesome-bases

[torn breach]

what biome is yours in

[jagged hollow]

I have it right outside Delta Island but I think I'm going to move it near the twisty bridges because there's way more resources over there. I'm having to back for titanium a lot.

[torn breach]

and as for your question, the water filtration machine has a slightly higher power requirement the the bio reactor has for out put. water filtration uses 51 Energy per minute and bio gives 50 Energy per minute

thanks for the tip about the hatch/stairs it worked. this is the first time i put a base above water

[jagged hollow]

Ahh thank you. Sounds like I'll need to get another bioreactor before I build my moonpool then :/

[torn breach]

for my first base i had 2 bio reactors and 1 solar panel. that was enough to power 2 moonpool's 1 water filtration, and a scanner

@jagged hollow use Root Globule for your bio fuel, it provides 700 energy per item and only takes up one slot

[jagged hollow]

yoooo.

thanks for the tip. I think I have some in my random finds locker, basically everything I can pick up but don't know what it's for yet 😄

[torn breach]

thats all its used for, bio fuel. you can get alot of them at the norther part of the map, where the marker for architect artifact X3J is

[torn breach]

does placing reinforcements on above water sections of a base give the reinforcement bonus?

[crisp flicker]

theres a tornado warning in my town right now

[hard dove]

stay safe

[jade sand]

||ok so this is the best scan dialogue ever||

[crisp flicker]

its ok they called it off but its the first time ever here

[eternal garnet]

tornado cancelled, not enough viewers

[jade sand]

lmao

[jade sand]

Tornado warnings are terrifying, especially if you don't have a basement. Glad you're ok

[torn breach]

lol, if it paid better i would have become a tornado chaser

i loved watching tornados form up and drop down when i was a kid

[unkempt bronze]

Anyone know where to get Lithium in the early game? Haven't built the sea truck yet and I need plasteel for my base

[fervent crater]

man what do i do

[fervent crater]

Purple Vents

[unkempt bronze]

Oh yeah, forgot about that area

Replaying the game, essentially blind and without any assistance via console commands (because they removed console from switch)

[jade sand]

I do dislike how glitchy the iceworms can get

[fervent crater]

I do too

[jade sand]

Ah yes, I am running in place and something is stabbing me repeatedly despite the fact that I am on flat ground

[fervent crater]

Mine are heavily bugged

[jade sand]

e n j o y a b l e

[fervent crater]

Oh mine dont do any damage to me

[jade sand]

Mine definitely do

I freeze when they appear sometimes though

[fervent crater]

They're supposed to but apparently I'm immune

[unkempt bronze]

And now I'm cornered by... whatever those things are.

[jaunty chasm]

When will I find ice worms ugh

[graceful crag]

Later in the game, ||when you're almost done with building alan's body||

[jaunty chasm]

K

I was confused because I’ve already found the ||fabricator caves|| and done lots of stuff to ||build AL-AN|| and I thought I was playing the game wrong

[graceful crag]

Yeah, you encounter them when you're hunting for one of the 3 blueprints for his body

[unkempt bronze]

Well I'll be... the sea monkeys did the work for me and brought lithium

[jaunty chasm]

Man I feel like the sea monkeys can hear my mic I was like “I need lead” and I turned around and there was a sea monkey with some lead

[jade sand]

Spoiler if you wanna play it blind, tip if you want to go in prepared: ||Bring an Ion cube so you only have to cross the spires once||

I have not figured out how to communicate with sea monkeys

They always look so sad when I drop titanium in front of them, but they never grab it

I think maybe you stick it in the nest

[upper lion]

What? What does that even do?

Do you mean hydraulic fluid?

[unkempt bronze]

You pin the item you want to craft

They brought me lithium after I pinned Plasteel Ingots

[upper lion]

Hm.

Ive never used seamonkeys for materials

They did bring me nickel once though

[torn breach]

Purple vents just east of delta dock. It is laying all over the ground

[jade sand]

||No, there's a portal||

[jagged hollow]

There's also quite a few bits around the twisty bridges/kelp forest/spot where the pod is

[jagged hollow]

You're supposed to give them stuff? I just take what they give me haha

[jade sand]

Yeah I mean I think? Robin specifically mentions telling them what she wants

But I have no idea if that's just robin 3.0 being robin 3.0

[jagged hollow]

They keep trying to give me stuff when my inventory is full and I have to turn away before they look so sad

[torn breach]

guess thats one wat to take advantage of the local plant life

[jade sand]

xD

Like this Pengwing using the sauna

[jagged hollow]

https://tenor.com/view/david-tennant-doctor-who-physics-gif-8421222

[torn breach]

i had a bit of an evil streak after i accidently destroyed 3 truck modules and my prong suit and used most of the penglings around the start point for bio fuel

[jagged hollow]

I just moved my base to the twisty bridges so whenever I leave or come back I end up running into sea monkeys with my seatruck >.> that yellow blood.

Although safety is a two way street, they could try looking where they're going. It's not my fault the seatruck has a lot of blindspots.

[torn breach]

i use my truck to kill sharks all the time. and those psychic creatures, not sure what they are called

i wish it had cameras like the cyclops did in the first game

[jagged hollow]

I just want the seamoth sonar

[torn breach]

talk to the modders, you might be able to talk someone into making it for you

[jagged hollow]

ahh I made the mistake of getting both games on Switch.

I did put them both on my Steam wishlist so maybe I'll get them on PC eventually.

[torn breach]

ah, that sucks. i do mostly pc gaming, except a few old classic systems like my game cube

[broken badge]

I’m really hoping we’ll get the ability to disable the lilypaddlers, because they are just too much, their effects, they make me feel like I’m going to get a migraine and I’m sure other people who have visual sensitivities are the same way so I reported it. I build a base in upper lilypads so when I’m doing that, I run over the ones I find in the vicinity as well, because they’re not only a nuisance interfering with the building process, they make me feel nauseated the thing they do

[stable current]

fabricator caverns with fog turned off are very pretty

[broken badge]

Very very red

[upper lion]

Lol

[upper lion]

Come on, now the seedling cant grow

[upper lion]

i think ur confusing bz with subnautica mate

[jade sand]

I will show you a screenshot when I get back to Phi

[upper lion]

You dont need an ion cube to activate the portals smh

[jade sand]

....Yes you do though

[broken badge]

You need one for the portal that connects to Phi

[upper lion]

What one?

[broken badge]

It’s in Arctic Spires

[upper lion]

The portal thing in the cavern in phi?

[broken badge]

Yeah

[jagged hollow]

You need an ion cube to activate all of the portals iirc

[upper lion]

Does it have to do with that principal portal thing in arctic spires

I only found the architect cabling scan

[jagged hollow]

The sea monkeys aren't bringing me gifts as often as they used to. Perhaps they don't appreciate being mowed down with my truck.

[upper lion]

Eh.

I released a crashfish once and it literally blew up on my face

[jagged hollow]

I hate those. Mainly the noise.

[upper lion]

I hatched a crashfish in my aquarium

Released it and almost killed me

[broken badge]

Architect Teleporters | Subnautica Wiki | Fandom

https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Architect_Teleporters

[jagged hollow]

Some children don't appreciate their parents ig

[upper lion]

Yea thats the thing in phi robotics cavern

[broken badge]

That’s the slave portal. You activate the one in Arctic Spires with an ion cube

[upper lion]

I might try to find and activate it

I have 3 full large lockers of ion cubes, afterall

[jade sand]

I'm sorry the WHAT

[broken badge]

It’s a term, meaning it’s dependent on the master portal for activation (yeah I know I thought the terminology was weird too at first but apparently it’s common in computing)

[jade sand]

Would've been better to go with parent/child or something

[torn breach]

ya, that terminology is grandfathered in. they've been using it pretty much since the start of networking

[upper lion]

Sounds better.

[broken badge]

On the wiki they use Principal and Auxiliary

[upper lion]

Ohh so i was right!

It IS that principal portal thing.

[wintry bone]

i am like 95% certain we use those terms on the wiki because that's what they did for BZ after they decided master/slave was a bad idea lol

[upper lion]

Master/slave
Parent/child
Same meaning

[broken badge]

That would make sense, the first time I saw someone else write “master/slave” I was like what the hell😳

[upper lion]

Principal and auxillary sounds more sci fi tho so its better

[fervent crater]

By the way, what's the deepest biome in the game besides the Void and how deep?

[upper lion]

||Fabricator caves||

Near 1000m

Waiiittt

[broken badge]

Well, the red beryl part of crystal caverns

[upper lion]

I edited it, sorry

[broken badge]

Those are called the ||fabricator caverns|| iirc

[upper lion]

Oh wait, spoiler

[fervent crater]

Thank you

[upper lion]

You need depth module mk3 for seatruck or mk2 for prawn i think to go there

[fervent crater]

Yup

[broken badge]

I suggest taking seatruck, the perimeter defense is better to have

[fervent crater]

Gonna find the cache

I have the docking module

[upper lion]

Its in like, a hole

[fervent crater]

Watching this mom on yt

[upper lion]

Hylianmom?

[fervent crater]

To help

Yep

[broken badge]

Hylian Mom? She makes good guides

[fervent crater]

Yea but I usually watch Chemical Apes

[upper lion]

Yeah she helped me memorize the path to marg because im too lazy to beacon her base

[upper lion]

I watch his tutorials for resources

[fervent crater]

Lol

[broken badge]

I used her guide to the monkey nests in lilypad caves, very helpful

[spice seal]

truly a laugh out loud moment

[fervent crater]

I tried to contain my guides to a minimum

But some things I need help with

[upper lion]

Eh.

Also, im doing pretty good in my hardcore save

[fervent crater]

Like for example, I got lost in the Arctic Spires so I watched a video on how to get out

[upper lion]

I used the glacial basin map lol

[broken badge]

Arctic Spires is easy to wander in circles

[fervent crater]

I did for about an hour

[upper lion]

I used the glacial basin map to get to the glacial forest

It surprisingly works!

[fervent crater]

I didn't have that map at that time I don't think

I completely missed it

[torn breach]

i wish there was a way to dock or park truck modules so they're not just floating around. looks disorganized

[fervent crater]

Dock on what

[broken badge]

Like if there was a way to dock them to the exterior of the moonpool for storage or something, yeah it would be nice

[fervent crater]

Oh

[torn breach]

exactly, just leaving them floating next to my moonpool or base seems sloppy

[mighty thicket]

Is below zero on switch?

[torn breach]

YES

sorry caps

well, i think i gave my new base plenty of power: 5 solar panels, 2 bio reactors, and 2 nuclear reactors

current max power of 6,375

debating if i want to hunt down some thermal vents just so i can say i have every form of power... but i'd have to put up a huge power transmitter relay system to get it to my base, might be over kill 😄

[carmine bobcat]

i still havent played since release week

so im gonna play it today

[carmine bobcat]

found out why i havent played for so long

[upper lion]

Bah.

My main base is in purple vents

Also, i only needed 1 transmitter to bring power a couple meters

Like 1 transmitter 20 meters

[torn breach]

my base is about 150 - 200 meters from nearest vent

[upper lion]

My heat sources are fumaroles

Continuous ones so the power is constant

[torn breach]

i'm in the lilly pad area. my base has parts that are above water and below water all connected

[upper lion]

Ok

My base is in the intersection of tree spires lilypads and purple vents

Its a really nice area since lilypads has table coral, tree spires has alot of resources and purple vents has heat and lithium

Also easy access to 2 mercury compartments

[prime lantern]

is there a way to get unstuck without using commands?

[surreal tusk]

where r u stuck?

[torn breach]

depends on how your stuck

are "you" stuck or is a vehicle stuck?

[surreal tusk]

i would assume vehicle

but idk

[torn breach]

i got stuck walking across some rough ice once...

but yes, usually its a vehicle

@JC#8215

[surreal tusk]

@prime lantern

[torn breach]

i do believe that they went offline... oh well, hope the problem got fixed

[river hinge]

hii

[proud plinth]

It is my birthday today, and I got the coolest phone case (bz spoiler)

[coral lotus]

do they make ones for Samsung

[proud plinth]

I dunno, this is a custom one my mom made for me sdkbja

[coral lotus]

I see

man it's sucks I can't have my nsfw pfp 😔

[proud plinth]

I-

[coral lotus]

lol

I had to change my nsfw pfp to join this sad 😔

[proud plinth]

[carmine bobcat]

its actually worrying how dangerous lily paddlers are

they're like mesmers but completely cranked up

[coral lotus]

I was playing the old subnautica I beat the game and my prawnsuit went in the ground so I reported what happened

[short knot]

ok?

[warped shadow]

this is the sequel chat and its one of the most known bugs

[short knot]

And its just like so random, like do you want want us to say wowie how cool, incredible

[carmine bobcat]

lol

[carmine bobcat]

ok , 2 artifacts found on 3

where is the last one .........

[cursive ledge]

which have you found

[carmine bobcat]

Tissues and skeleton

[cursive ledge]

||crystal caves are where you can find the final part||

[carmine bobcat]

didnt discovered those yet

[strange grail]

lets go i just got below zero

[cursive ledge]

Pog

[cursive ledge]

Yeah that

Ah you got the zappy module you’ll be fine

[cursive ledge]

Zap

[carmine bobcat]

yeah I have it its ok

[strange grail]

why is it so tempting to press the spoilers but i havent beaten the game yet

[cursive ledge]

Resist

Do not give in to temptation.

[strange grail]

i clicked on one but it re-spoilered a minute after and i forgot so im not clicking it

[cursive ledge]

I mean. They only show like a biome and a leviathan but that’s like it. So even if you did click on it you wouldn’t be like that badly spoiled.

[cursive ledge]

Yes.

[strange grail]

what about that one just there

[cursive ledge]

Oh no that’s a major spoiler

[strange grail]

ok

how do i get recipe for rebreather if there is one

[carmine bobcat]

good leviathan, stay away

OH GOD

[strange grail]

bruh he heard you and immediately turned for you

[carmine bobcat]

is there anything you can put in these places other than bioreactor and nuclear

[eternal garnet]

40 lockers, walls, containment

water purifier

[carmine bobcat]

I mean like, the spaces in the middle

containment i didnt know about but anything else?

[eternal garnet]

containment. it takes two of those

again, divider walls if you want

or just put lockers there

[carmine bobcat]

before i was like ''eh i wont even use the partitions im just gonna have a large space'' but im loving the partitions

this feels like an actual home

i got a relaxing space an energy space a food space

[strange grail]

bruh i've went 400m down into the place where the pilot was last seen or something without a rebreather cause i cant find it

[carmine bobcat]

i recmomend a walkthrough for that

its really stupid to find

i just swam around for like 2 hours in real life

then gave up and used a guide and it was in some obscure place

[strange grail]

ok ill do that

in bz is the drop pod thing scattered within 500m around the place or is it in the same spot cause if i look at a vid and were in different spots then ill get it wrong

like in subnautica where the lifepod isnt in the same spot everytime

[humble kelp]

hi

[carmine bobcat]

why your base is near the shadows leviathan?

To observe it

[strange grail]

finally i found the rebreather

that took me too long

[vernal zealot]

hey lads ive had this problem with below zero you guys reckon you can help?

[carmine bobcat]

2 thermoblade hits = dead brute shark

[strange grail]

if its spoilers then mark it as spoilers because iv'e only started an hour ago

wait never mind time flies 4 hours ago

[vernal zealot]

i've had two runs so far that ive had to end because story landmarks wont load in

i have no clue why the structure is just missing

[strange grail]

pc or console?

[vernal zealot]

for example ||delta station ||and the ||first alien signal ||

PC

[strange grail]

oh im on console but i still use this chat cause its not dead all the time

i cant really help then,

[vernal zealot]

damn all goood

tried looking it up but seemingly cant find anything on it

[strange grail]

maybe ask the bug fixing chat or something idk

wait no you cant type in that one

you could give feedback and

what the heck the air bladder is actually insane in bz

[carmine bobcat]

Thanks DEVs, I did Sub1 and 2 in a row, waiting for the 3 !

[cursive ledge]

you'll probably be waiting for a while

[carmine bobcat]

I got 30 years before dying

Wha ta game !

[cursive ledge]

into a sort-of cliffhanger ending

[carmine bobcat]

We know where the 3 will be then

[cursive ledge]

maybe.

[carmine bobcat]

maybe.

[eternal garnet]

We are certain that maybe.

[crisp flicker]

hey I found the|| teleporter|| in the arctic spires

btw I beat the game ages ago

[eternal garnet]

it goes to ||phi robotics||

[crisp flicker]

Im just trying to get all the juke discs

[errant phoenix]

@bold monolith hello i read your discuss at steam about that the al-an tranfer is bugged and i hope you can help me

[crisp flicker]

hullo good sir

[errant phoenix]

do you talk to me @crisp flicker

[strange grail]

oh my god this is so annoying, im trying to build a base but every bump in geometry blocks the entire thing

[crisp flicker]

ya miss the old terraformer

[carmine bobcat]

tra

[strange grail]

i had good ideas but whenever i tried placing moonpool somewhere there would be this singular plant thats unbreakable that stops the entire thing from being built

[crisp flicker]

I know

Ive been upgrading my base even though im done the game and I couldnt continue it anywhere right now im getting juke discs

[strange grail]

nice

as i said nice i found one in this building above water and its called survive

[spring sequoia]

hey guys

shadow leviathan is less scary than chelicerate or more?

[jade sand]

less imo

It depends on what scares you

Also, any recommendations for good spots for a primary base?

[vocal dew]

Shadow becomes a non issue with seatruck perimeter defense

[crisp flicker]

LESS

[jade sand]

||I hate Marguerite because her base is in the MOST CONVENIENT place ever||

Like let me have some of that convenience

[crisp flicker]

why cant we steal herbase

[jade sand]

Lol "Hey marguerite, your greenhouse is your house now, this one belongs to me"

[crisp flicker]

😄

[jade sand]

"Look, I've got a ||bacterial warfare|| case to solve, and I've got to ||assemble a body for the voice in my head||, can you please just work with me on this one?"

Can we turn off the lights in the seatruck at all?

[crisp flicker]

i dont think so

[jade sand]

dont mind the literal smoke coming up from my floor

[strange grail]

ah yes

[jade sand]

or the active bioreactor that doesn't power the whole thing

I don't know how I feel about the Architects and the Emperor

||At the end of the first game, it's revealed that the architects, panicked and with nowhere else to turn, trapped the sea emperor and her babies for a thousand years, desperately trying to figure out how she can cure the Kharaa Bacterium.|| At the end of that game, I was pretty set against the architects. But after interacting with Al-An, and to borrow a metaphor from him, ||I've come to really think about how maddening thousands of panicked strings dwindling rapidly must have been to creatures that didn't really think on the individual level. Yes, one creature was suffering, but to them it makes no sense that that is a bad thing. It's one person suffering, yes, but thousands that would benefit||

Subnautica's sea emperor and the fate of the architects reminds me of the Omelas extreme.

[carmine bobcat]

are you kidding me

my lead dissapeared or something

i swear

i had enough to make this stuff and now i have none

Oh its in my quantum locker thank god

[jade sand]

OML I hate when that happens

[charred void]

is below zero better then the og or no im deciding wether to buy it or not

[carmine bobcat]

its not better

if youre picking between the two of them get the original one, but below zero is still great

[charred void]

i have the original right now, im deciding wether to just stick with the original or buy the new one

[carmine bobcat]

i am so glad i got this dome

[jade sand]

buy the new one, but it's a completely different experience

[carmine bobcat]

Its less open world survival than subnautica

more objective-based

[jade sand]

But! It still has so much to explore and discover

[carmine bobcat]

yes

[jade sand]

And so much more information on the world

[carmine bobcat]

imo below zero is an 8.5 while subnautica is a 10/10

[jade sand]

Yeah

[carmine bobcat]

maybe a 9 for bz

[jade sand]

To be fair to below zero, there was no way to recapture the OG magic

[carmine bobcat]

yeah

some very small changes couldve improved the game a ton though

[jade sand]

Agreed

And the large rooms were disappointing

But it is still such a wonderful game

You get to find out what happened to Marguerite Maida

and they listened to feedback about little things like crashfish

And you still get that no words, just imagery pieces of game design like my favorite piece of game design of all time

Also Unknown Worlds rocks and deserves support

[carmine bobcat]

what

large room is my favorite thing new in bz

i so badly wish they put it in the first game too

[jade sand]

In the multipurpose room I can cover every square inch of wall space with leaves if I want

[carmine bobcat]

I mean, you can just use a MP room then

[jade sand]

the large rooms are too rigidly set on a grid system

They'd be much prettier if they added more wall nodes

[carmine bobcat]

large room doesnt work for stuff like that but for many other things its graet

more wall nodes would be nice thoguh yeah

[jade sand]

Also the grid is really unwieldy in some cases

[spice seal]

Yeah the windows are so small

[carmine bobcat]

I was a small bit dissapointed with the levis in this game until ||shadow ||leviathan

you should be able to stack multiple windows to make a huge glass screen

[jade sand]

yesss

[carmine bobcat]

the void is also great in this game

[jade sand]

Yessss

And the way the darker ice tunnels look like the night sky

[carmine bobcat]

crystal caves is also in my top 3 favorite biomes including the biomes from SN

and my favorite below zero biome

the music is just a bop and its got such nice atmosphere

[jade sand]

I'm a gigantic fan of the weird flower caves but at the same time they're out of the way and there's no room to build a base so 5/10

[spice seal]

why though I prefer the Ghost Leviathans to a spookier reskin of Chelicerates

[carmine bobcat]

The chelicerates are terrifying imo

because of how they bite you, then just dissapear into the darkness

its not like ghost leviathans u can see 5 miles away

you only see these at the last moment

Also the music is amazing, and its easier to go there by accident since its less of a steep drop and more of an incline

[jade sand]

Oh I LOVE the music

the theme that plays whenever you touch something belonging to Sam?

perfection. I'm a sucker for music boxes.

[carmine bobcat]

i should probably move everything to my crystal caves base

[jade sand]

I'm trying to find the perfect place for a centralized base, but in truth I just need to make a bunch of smaller bases

[carmine bobcat]

juke box, moonpool storage etc

[carmine bobcat]

I mean, delta station is quite literally the center of the map

[jade sand]

yeah but there's a bunch of stuff on it

[carmine bobcat]

roomate

[jade sand]

I love when fish break in

[carmine bobcat]

i got so lucky with scanning the shadow leviathan

[spice seal]

It gets real buggy when you run into them though

[carmine bobcat]

well not lucky but the way i did it worked well

i just got out of my seatruck when he started attackin g it and i had a big wnidow to scan

[jade sand]

Also I think the biggest crime of the large rooms is the even number of nodes going the long way

I need to make my room symmetrical you tyrants!

[carmine bobcat]

the glass dome though

the leviathans in this game are actually hard to avoid if you dont have perimiter

unlike in the first game

[jade sand]

The glass dome is nice but I wish the wall would separate it too ;v;

Yeah leviathans are way scarier

[carmine bobcat]

Not scarier

Nothing really competes with the reaper, atleast

But they're far harder to dodge

Especially shadow

in SN the only hard one to dodge was the sea dragon but that didnt matter cause prawn

[jade sand]

I never was really scared of the reaper

mostly because I could dodge him easily

yall remember all the "Peeper Leviathan" mods and designs? I loved that

[twin lava]

riley

[carmine bobcat]

seatruck crush depth now 1000 metres

[hard dove]

[twin lava]

eyes wurm

[torn breach]

good thing i'm not on hardcore, just managed to kill my self while working on my base. was adding on rooms and didn't pay attention to my hull integrity. went to duck in to get air and my whole base was flooded

[jade sand]

someone PLEASE explain to me why I can build on the glass, but I CANT build on the glass.

This is why I hate the large room

It needs to be more granular and make more sense

Also I just realized it was called "BaseLargeWaterParkWalls" and that's rad

[carmine bobcat]

glacial basin is fun without flare

bringing flare just removes all fun and turns it into a walking simulator

[jade sand]

I have never used a flare, what does it do?

Like, I know I've played both games and it was there both times but

[carmine bobcat]

its a holdable light sorce

it also scares away snow stalkers

also flare >>> flashlight

[jade sand]

I've used it as a lightsource and gotta agree

didn't know it scared animals

[carmine bobcat]

brighter light, no power usage

around an entire area so you can see everything in your peripheral and not just in a beam infront fo you

throwable to distract predators, its just overall amazing

[strange grail]

ive only used it for bz

i never had it in my inventory in subnautica

i thought it would attract animals

i cant believe iv'e been sitting on my bed for 4 hours building a base and listening to the jukebox

[carmine bobcat]

the good life

[final flax]

On a new computer I just installed below zero through gamepass and it went to sync my game then failed and now says no games available. How do I get my saved game back?

[jade sand]

I don't think bz does cloud saves

[final flax]

everything online leads me to believe it does. I couldn't find the individual save game files anywhere on my pc.

[jade sand]

when I uninstalled and reinstalled on Steam I lost all of my saves

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/848450/view/3109147756465461793

But it sounds like you're using a different system so idk if it's different there

[carmine bobcat]

What's the delta station dock

I feel like there's meant to be more than just an alien shrine looking thing

[torn breach]

explore the island

[carmine bobcat]

Alr

[torn breach]

you'll find some good stuff, and story stuff

[carmine bobcat]

I found some alien thing but thats all

[torn breach]

did you go to the top of the island?

[carmine bobcat]

No

[final flax]

welll 40 hours of gameplay gone, obviously the game isn't v1.0 yet even though they released it as such. Searching through posts here there are others with the same problem. I guess this ends my subnautica adventure forever

[torn breach]

what problem?

[final flax]

cloud saves disappearing

[torn breach]

ah, i don't use them

[carmine bobcat]

Some old woman in a deformed prawn attacked me

[final flax]

unfortunately there was no choice via the windows store version

[carmine bobcat]

Lovely

[torn breach]

ya, she's part of the story line, but keep going higher

chase her later

[final flax]

uninstalling.. man I loved this game.. Is there a blog post or story reveal somewhere where I can just read about how the game ends?

[carmine bobcat]

why

[carmine bobcat]

I went higher and found a sattelite

[final flax]

I don't live with my parents, I can't just crash through 40 hours of gameplay easily to get back to where I was before the thing deleted my game. There are 1000s of other games I got to get through. lol

[carmine bobcat]

you can finish the game in like 12 hours comfortably though

even without guides or rushing

[torn breach]

ok, now follow the crazy lady. but you probably won't be able to get to her yet. she's a bit deep down. i'd explore and start building a small base and look for ways to upgrade your equipment.

you'll want to build a seatruck and look for modules for it and find ways to increase your oxygen

a big part of this game is exploration, don't be afraid to do so. a lot of the creatures make a lot of noise, but they seem to stick to a small area so as long as you don't get to close they tend to leave you alone@carmine bobcat

[carmine bobcat]

I already got a fragment

Are there more around the island?

[torn breach]

yes, on the island in a cave you should find a tool that will help you find fragments

[carmine bobcat]

Oh ok

Also I can't get to the alien distress call

It's under the ground but I can't find an entry cace

Cave*

[torn breach]

its actually over in the twisty bridge area, you just get the signal over by the island

[final flax]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh uninstalling and installing it was able to pull the cloud file down 😄

[carmine bobcat]

Oh ok

[torn breach]

i found it when randomly exploring

[final flax]

it took like 5 minutes to actually get the file, crazy! phew! I don't have to abandon this beautiful game 😄

[torn breach]

@final flaxthats good, i would be ****** off if i lost my save file

[carmine bobcat]

I think I found it

[final flax]

the xbox app (or windows?) needs some better UI around cloud sync control. I love how GoG does it. If it discovers a desync it prompts you with info about each version of the sync and asks which you want to keep. etc.

[carmine bobcat]

I definitely need a sea truck

Or a better tank

[torn breach]

i'm still working on my base #🏠awesome-bases message here is what i have so far

[carmine bobcat]

Failed embed attempt point and laugh

[torn breach]

i've added a few items onto it since i posted those, but i have several more ideas to add on

[carmine bobcat]

Just got possessed by an architect

[torn breach]

lol, he has lots of fun interactions as you play

[carmine bobcat]

O

I also can make a rebreathe

Rebreather*

[torn breach]

as you explore you'll find lots of stuff that will help you out. i would also start hoarding ever resource you can find. build a base that you can use to store stuff for later

[carmine bobcat]

I need a wiring kit but I keep dropping the silver when I drown

And now I can't find any

[torn breach]

are you playing on pc or another platform

@carmine bobcat

if pc, you can get mods to give you more storage, both for your self and for your seatruck. makes gathering easier

[jade sand]

how evil would it be for me to stick my newly hatched Cryptosuchus into the bioreactor

on a scale from 1-10

[unkempt bronze]

Any idea on where I can find the moonpool fragments?

[jade sand]

I got it from scanning Maida's

[unkempt bronze]

Hm. Not a bad idea

One issue, I can't find Maida's base

[quick terrace]

if you wanna know where it is I can tell you

that's also where I got the moonpool, as well as the large room

[unkempt bronze]

I got large room from Outpost Zero I believe

[quick terrace]

oop I haven't been there yet

I should try to stay out of this channel lol

[carmine bobcat]

Xbox

[quick terrace]

@unkempt bronze if you wanna know where Marguerite's base is click on the spoiler, if not then don't
||it's in the caves underneath the Lilypad Islands, you can also get to it from the caves in the Tree Spires||

now imma yeet out of this channel before I get more spoilers lol

[torn breach]

@carmine bobcatwell, gathering will take longer, but it will help you get used to navigating faster. if you need help, just ask. i've got most of the early game stuff figured out and some of the mid game. i'm taking a break from the story to build my base. its a bit over large, but it looks cool 😄

[carmine bobcat]

Tysm for the help

[worldly hinge]

qwp

[carmine bobcat]

I just need 1 more fragment so it'll rlly help when I make a truck

[torn breach]

ya, getting the truck really helps

@carmine bobcat did you get the ||mineral detector from delta island? it can be used to scan for fragments and other items. it has a range of about 40 - 50 meters||

[upper lion]

Not delta island?

Do you mean the scanner room?

The mineral detector is at the emergency cache

[torn breach]

i found it in the cave under delta station, on the island

next to a data pad on a work bench with some sulfer

[upper lion]

One is in a box inside of the cache

[torn breach]

but i have seen them other places to, guess it just depends where you go first

[unkempt bronze]

Quick question, is there a Chelicarate Leviathan near the Stern of the Mercury 2?

[upper lion]

Stern?

The one in purple vents?

[unkempt bronze]

Yeah

[upper lion]

Probably.

[torn breach]

i didn't have any trouble with leviathan's when i explored the ships

[upper lion]

Theres one chelicerate near the deep purple vents crevice i think

[unkempt bronze]

...crud, I can't go to maida's base yet

[torn breach]

there is, but he doesn't go over by the ship unless he is chasing you

[upper lion]

Depth modules?

[unkempt bronze]

None yet

[upper lion]

Hm.

In my hardcore save im still in my lifepod

[torn breach]

if you have the seaglide, you can get there. there should be oxygen plants along the way

[quick terrace]

I would advice using the Sea Truck

[torn breach]

i tried hardcore, but i keep forgetting to surface for air

[quick terrace]

I parked it just above 300m cause I had the depth module mk II at the time, then Seaglided to the base

[torn breach]

the truck does make it much easier

[upper lion]

I already got seatruck blueprint in hardcore

[unkempt bronze]

I'm on my second run of the game, as somehow I managed to beat the game on my original run in under four hours

How I did it? I have no clue.

[upper lion]

In my new survival save i managed to beat the game in 9 hours

[unkempt bronze]

Am I scared stupid? Absolutely

Hold on. I need diamonds for enameled glass, right?

[torn breach]

yes

[unkempt bronze]

Where does one find diamonds

[torn breach]

koppa mine

the heat vents around koppa mine have some to

[upper lion]

The veins near lava geysers in thermal spires caves have some too

[unkempt bronze]

Kind of hoping that the sea monkeys can provide me with that, haha

[torn breach]

you could also try a jewelry store, but they charge a lot 🙂

[jade sand]

can we talk about how absolutely gorgeous the animation on the sea monkeys is?

There's something fascinating about the way their tails move

[fervent crater]

where would the thermal reactor modules work

[carmine bobcat]

Thermal vents

[fervent crater]

oh ok

[jade sand]

Do we get any more clues about ||the fabrication facility than just "It's at great depth?"|| I've been in a lot of deep places and I found that particular clue incredibly frustrating

[carmine bobcat]

||crystal caves||

[eternal garnet]

it's at the greatest depth

[crisp flicker]

their tails are the same as ||shadow leviathans||

[jade sand]

so pretty

[carmine bobcat]

I got the tool blueprints but haven't made one yet

[torn breach]

i would, its a life saver early game

[carmine bobcat]

O

It's a nightmare gathering materials though

Especially without a decent form of transportation or air supply

I'm aiming for rebreather though

[torn breach]

until then, the floating air pump and pipes are a good use for deeper gathering

[fervent crater]

Where do i make the || body components?||

[torn breach]

i'd put a beacon near the pipe to make it easer to find, then you can pack it up and take it with you to the next spot@carmine bobcat

[jade sand]

||Fabrication Facility||

[fervent crater]

oh so i need to bring it there

[jade sand]

yes

Anyone have a screenshot of the original, endearing description of the arctic peeper?

[worldly hinge]

Hi

Everyone

[fervent crater]

👋

[worldly hinge]

That' right??

[torn breach]

hello

[worldly hinge]

Hi

[torn breach]

happy swimming

[upper lion]

Researcher note: bored of the auto-generated name? Iceclops.

[quick terrace]

this is the coolest fricking thing I have ever seen

it reminds me of that Monarch base build around Monster Zero frozen in the ice in Godzilla King of the Monsters

[jade sand]

Yeah it's awesome!!!

Can we talk about how gorgeous this game is?

Also, anyone else get vertigo from the seatruck sometimes?

[unique minnow]

Haven’t even finished 1st game🙁

[carmine bobcat]

where can i find the rebreather blueprint

[quick terrace]

Twisty Bridges

it's in a databox on one of those little areas with a foundation and some boxes and a robotic arm

[jade sand]

||I finally got AL-An out of my head but he's still talking to me lmfao||

[upper lion]

..it does actually

Imagine if we had access to dynamites and we could blow it out

[jade sand]

||If you look real close the eyes move||

[brisk aspen]

finally

neco arc

[mossy night]

||what happened about khaara in below zero? Does it still being a thing?||

[carmine bobcat]

Greg the IIIII

[lucid cedar]

does anyone know a mod that can improve fps

[upper lion]

Why lol

[upper lion]

Why do you only have 1 solar panel to power your base?

[carmine bobcat]

Because I just started lmao

[upper lion]

Ah, okay

Try adding more solar panels

[carmine bobcat]

Why

I barely use any power

Only coffee and Fabricator

Oh, and modification system

[supple barn]

||after the first game sea emperors were let free to spread enzyme 42 to destroy kharaa and well thats what happend frozen leviathan was the last known creatures to have it also before the rework there was a sea emperor you could talk to and collect the enzyme to finish the game||

||this only applied to 4546B||

[full plaza]

Has anyone else got those yellow pet fish

Like cuddledish

But not as cute

And I raised a sea monkey in containment and let it out at my base and I don’t live next to creep vines but the sea monkey isn’t leaving and I’m getting free stuff

[broken badge]

If you release something raised in containment, it usually will hang around near where you release it

The companion critter in this game is called a trivalve, there are blue ones and gold ones (they take a similar role as the cuddlefish)

[full plaza]

Blue ones?? I only have 2 gold

[broken badge]

They’re found in different areas

[celest basalt]

I really gotta play more BZ tbh

[full plaza]

Blue ones idk where

[broken badge]

There’s a couple of places. One I think you have to use a prawn to get to, idk how to describe where it is because I’ve never been (only seen it in a guide). The other place is over in Arctic Spires, a small little cave with two blue eggs in it

[full plaza]

Kk

I’ve been to the one with prawn suit

[upper lion]

I found the principal architect teleporter

[umbral pike]

it got cured ofc, the reason while its still on the ||frozen leviathan|| is because it's in ||ice|| so the bacteria didn't touch the cure

[upper lion]

Guys!

So uhhh, i set my scanner room in my crystal caves outpost to scan for shadow leviathans

Theres surprisingly.. alot?

If i add a camera will the leviathans eat the camera?

[supple barn]

They might attack it but i think eating cameras is only the stalkers ability might be wrong tho

[upper lion]

Very spoopy

[meager sequoia]

bz with a high capacity tank is so good

[next current]

No u.

😉

[upper lion]

nah.

you can get an ultra capacity tank

also, i really cant express how useful the world edge has been to me

it has so many resources and absolutely no predators if you dont go into the abyssal zone

[broken badge]

I don’t think anything eats cameras at least nothing did in my experience in SN1. Never have used cameras in BZ

[eternal garnet]

stalkers move cameras, and I think sea monkeys also

[next current]

I think Sea Monkeys take Camera Drones if the cute brain boi is not in your head.

[broken badge]

I’m just saying they don’t eat them lol

Take them, sure I can see that happening in BZ, like how stalkers do in SN1

[upper lion]

eh, the shadow leviathans just ignored the cameras

[broken badge]

That makes sense

[upper lion]

also i did an unmanned exploration in crystal caves using the camera drones

im very afraid

[broken badge]

They’re just small drones probably too small to be noticed

[upper lion]

im kind of sad the drones batteries cant be ion

i mean, what am i gonna do with the 4 large lockers of ion cubes i have?

[next current]

Eat them.

[mild vine]

I-

[ember merlin]

i reckon youd get some powers if you ate ion cubes

[mild vine]

Or maybe death

[ember merlin]

nah definitely some powers

youd prolly be able to teleport or smth

[naive crow]

Congratulations! You gained the power of disintegration!
What? re-integration? Don't be silly.

[unkempt moth]

hey can anyone here help me with a little issue im having with my below zero on pc?

my game is in full screen but it doesnt fit to my screen, it still looks like its windowed

if that makes any sense

[eternal garnet]

fiddle with options / general / display

[carmine bobcat]

Where can i find rubys?

nvm

[crisp flicker]

mining and lilypads

[robust viper]

Hello

Yello

[ornate canopy]

hi

[hearty pivot]

Hello this message is for the developers, I think that on Subnautica Below Zero I think it would be better to add something that explain us what happened to the Aurora or also something new for the vehicles like for the PRAWN suit maybe a new arm that repair things.

[mossy night]

||How did marguerit survive?! not to the void but about khaara,the cure just appeared after 10 years she was dissappeared,the khaara kills in much less time|||

[broken badge]

Not really exaplained

[eternal garnet]

too tough to die

[crisp flicker]

she played subnautica

[eternal garnet]

in subnautica, I found a note about the individual that is probably Al-an. It gives his age at 1760 or so

[crisp flicker]

reely

[mossy night]

i dont even think the peeper cure helped her to last so much,the old leviathan cure was helpfull but not permanent like the babys one

[next current]

Sometimes some things are best left unexplained.

[carmine bobcat]

Maybe the khaara wasn't as bad in that part of the planet?

That's all I can think of </3

[next current]

Yeah... but the problem with that theory is that she already had the kharaa before even making it to Sector Zero.

[mossy night]

ye

if im correct,theres a antidote in below zero that is made without the enzyime

[fervent crater]

Are there lights I can turn on here or something

[eternal garnet]

No. If you are using color = Filmic, turn that off

[mossy night]

i still dont think she made it ,the crater to sector zero travel took like 2 weeks and she had khaara before the travel,much before

and if she made the antidore after arriving at sector zero, i dont think it would let she stay alive for like 10-8 years

[fervent crater]

is that in options

[eternal garnet]

yes

[fervent crater]

hmm i dont see it

[wintry bone]

i still think about the time Tom Jubert gave his thoughts on how Marguerit would've survived and said he was interested in seeing how the new writers addressed her survival

[next current]

The recipe for the Antidote wasn't added for story reasons. It was added so if the player happened to lose it, they could create another one without having to worry about starting a new game.

[next current]

The ability to change the color grading was removed.

I think it was EA7 when they removed the option to change it.

[wintry bone]

they should've just made it so that there's like two or three vials of the antidote and no recipe

it's not like it softlocks you out of the game
if you lose three vials that's on you lol

[fervent crater]

I think one is fine, if you lose it oh well, you have to make another.

Plus, if there's one, it seems of more value to me

[next current]

I... would actually prefer that.

[wintry bone]

ok but you really shouldn't be able to make another
like the fact that you can just make a kharaa antidote out of two random plants has so many connotations for the story it's ridiculous lol
just have Sam be like "well this thing is important so i should probably have more than just one vial of it as backup"

i can excuse weird recipes for items that you need for progression otherwise you'll get softlocked if you lose it but the antidote is not one of those things

[eternal garnet]

You can make a coffee maker from 2 titanium. The magic is in the recipe.

NOT in the plants

[wintry bone]

ur tellin me the architects couldn't just look at two plants and figure out how to get an antidote out of it in a similar fashion

[eternal garnet]

yes, I am

[next current]

Yeah... I don't exactly like the recipes in Below Zero... they're a bit too easy and too simple for my liking.

[carmine bobcat]

Look at this

[eternal garnet]

that took a while to make

[carmine bobcat]

Screenshot a picture frame with a picture in it using the pda and upload that as the picture and repeat that always setting the new screenshot as the picture

[carmine bobcat]

below zero menu theme... so good

[west snow]

fr

[carmine bobcat]

i alt tab out of the game to slow down loading so i can hear it longer

no other game has ever made me do that

[west snow]

haahhahha

[carmine bobcat]

deathrun for below zero when

10 plasteel ingots for a coffee maker

• 5 of the rarest plants

[supple barn]

You do know they have soundtracks

[carmine bobcat]

was trying to connect my sea truck and then i hear an explosion behind me

[supple barn]

Bomb fish

[carmine bobcat]

good thing i have a save from around 10 minutes ago

no, i destroyed my sea truck storage module while trying to attach it since i was coming from the wrong side

[supple barn]

Wh....what its not that hard

[carmine bobcat]

i was trying to get it from the wrong part

was like ''why isnt it attachi-'' and it belw up

[eternal garnet]

Subnautica mentions ||Alan||, most likely

[wintry bone]

no

[carmine bobcat]

It could be

[eternal garnet]

disease researcher, messed up the job, stored digitally in "sanctuary". it fits

[wintry bone]

that goes for like

literally every Architect that was on the planet

[eternal garnet]

I am ok with you doubting

[next current]

I gotta agree with Vee.

[meager sequoia]

Dude what I should do now

[safe sun]

Vee has been a playtester since SN1's very early days for a really long time, you should take her word for it.

[meager sequoia]

I founded the ||Marguerit Maida Base and the Omega Lab||

And Idk what I do

Tuna help me

If you're seeing this

[next current]

I knew she was a playtester before Subnautica was released... But I didn't know she was a playtester for that long...! My respect for her has increased semi-dramatically.

[wintry bone]

i have not been a playtester since SN's "very early days" lol i didn't even buy the game until like 2 years into early access

[safe sun]

I was second-guessing myself after I sent that... lol whoops.

Fixed 😂

[meager sequoia]

What

[spark olive]

loool

[carmine bobcat]

Why can I no longer use the debug console?

[eternal garnet]

press shift+enter to enable. unless on switch, see pinned messages

[carmine bobcat]

Bruh

I forgot lol

[molten pond]

yeah

[full plaza]

Yo guys guys

No way

Look what I captured in Arctic spires

Pls don’t steal this

[unkempt bronze]

That's wallpaper material, sheesh.

Anyone got an idea on where I can find these things?
Alien Containment
Seatruck Storage Module

[broken badge]

Containment, you’ll have to scan inside the Mercury 2 wreckage, the bow specifically
Storage and fabricator module fragments are found in the deepest part of twisty bridges

[unkempt bronze]

Where is the mercury 2 bow, exactly?

[broken badge]

Lilypad biome

Not too far from Omega I think?

[unkempt bronze]

Found the Stern of the Mercury 2

Quick question, will the perimeter defense module save me from chelicarates?

[broken badge]

Yes, it’s very effective against all the leviathans

The stern is in the purple vents so you need to go into the lilypad biome to find the bow

[unkempt bronze]

I'm in the lily pad biome near where Maida's last known position is

Found the bow

[unborn sonnet]

is there a speedrunning community discord for BZ?

I just found a bug that allowed me to swim in air, not sure if that's a known bug or not but I can only imagine it would be useful for speedrunning lol

[carmine bobcat]

Below zero discount for Black friday?

[unkempt bronze]

Oh no...

I'm about to drown

I'll reload the save

Definitely going to start saving every minute

Second time I've needed a reload.

[carmine bobcat]

did anyone else need ||to use their seaglide when they went into the fabricator caverns?|| the ||shadow leviathans kept on destroying my prawn suit|| because|| i couldn't bring it inside, are there any workarounds?||

[unkempt bronze]

Searched the Mercury 2 Bow, no luck with the containment. I did get the parts to build the depth module to get the fragments for my seatruck. I'll try Omega for the containment.

Alien Containment (Below Zero) | Subnautica Wiki | Fandom

https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Alien_Containment_(Below_Zero)

It’s only found in the Mercury Bow

[unkempt bronze]

Where in the bow is it, exactly?

[spice seal]

There's this big main room with a big Lilypad root in the middle, it's on the bottom floor off to the side a little bit

[unkempt bronze]

Now I see it... I've swam past it so many times

[broken badge]

Things like that, having highlights on helps a lot to point out things to scan

[unkempt bronze]

Here's the thing, I have highlights on, I'm just completely oblivious

Prawn suit complete, now to get the necessary things scanned for my seatruck modules

Woohoo! Massive success!

[idle dagger]

Heyy, there are some Brazilians here?

[river night]

oh

[eternal garnet]

both, get subnautica first

[formal tinsel]

if youre planning to play chronologically it might take a while to get to below zero

[river night]

I can't buy subnautica

[formal tinsel]

why

[eternal garnet]

then get BZ

[river night]

the below zero is a present

[formal tinsel]

[carmine bobcat]

I accidentally killed a pengling with my seatruck. 😓

[river night]

my name is not inapropiate

[broken badge]

Having the f word in your username is inappropriate
It’s not like I don’t know how to look up translation

[rare bane]

I hate that when I poke my head out of water I get flash banged

[jagged hollow]

Just popping in to say that if you're trying to find something specific but don't like watching videos because of spoilers, check out Hylian Mom on YouTube. She has guides for everything, they're super concise, she's great at showing you the easiest ways to get things and quickly, doesn't spoil anything.

[quick terrace]

I just had a really bad glitch and had to quit without saving after I'd played for 48 minutes

idk if anyone's had this bug before but basically I got into my Sea Truck and couldn't move anywhere, then I realized that the animation for the chair moving up and the player's arms going to the controls was happening, but in extreme slow motion then finally I right clicked and it got the truck working normally again

but as soon as I exited the Sea Truck I basically became stuck, none of the buttons did anything and my character was just frozen in the piloting position as if I hadn't exited it

and a couple times it wouldn't even let me save so I just decided to quit without to get rid of the glitch

not sure if I can report this or not because I don't know exactly how to replicate it

[cursive ledge]

I shall merely say. Bugnautica.

[quick terrace]

this is the first glitch I've had in BZ

it's been perfectly fine up until now, much better than original Subnautica in terms of bugginess

well I submitted a bug report

hopefully that gets looked into

it was a pretty bad glitch so I really hope it doesn't happen again

[cursive ledge]

Hopefully it’s a one off thing.

[quick terrace]

yeah, it would really suck if it was somehow related to the Prawn docking module

I'll just try to remember to save more often

[hard pumice]

Could I advertise my server

[quick terrace]

has anyone else had problems with the Prawn docking module? like for me the first time I put the Prawn onto it it exited me out inside the Sea Truck still in the swimming state and I had to click on the ladder to fix it

[hard pumice]

I am trying to get people to join because i want to make it popular

[quick terrace]

just a tip, I don't think randomly asking people to join your server will get them to join, also don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to advertise servers here, that's off topic

[hard pumice]

Oh sorry

[broken badge]

Sorry, it’s in the rules, no advertising your own stuff here

[hard pumice]

Ok sorry

[upper lion]

I have that too!

[carmine bobcat]

Lol

U have a fractal

[upper lion]

Hm.

Also, i improved my base a bit!

Im also gonna finally furnish the 2nd floor.

[carmine bobcat]

3 aquariums

In different rooms

A kitchen, bathroom, and mess hall

And bedroom

[upper lion]

I dont have any of those

Maybe i should make some considering i have 4 lockers of titanium ingots

[carmine bobcat]

Indoor greenhouse

[upper lion]

Good idea

[carmine bobcat]

Las in I have a indoor greenhouse

And I have 3 prawn suits, 2 seatrucks, and 3 snowfoxes

4 different bases

However the 3 aquariums, kitchen, bathroom, mess hall, bedroom, and Indoor greenhouse are in one base

And 2 control rooms for that one base

That's how much space it takes up

[quick terrace]

the Sea Truck should have cameras like the Cyclops, change my mind

it'd make it so much easier to navigate if you have a lot of modules attached

[neon turtle]

i have a growing army of crashfish for some reason

[unkempt bronze]

Welp, just had my first encounter with a chelicarate.

I don't want to get near it in fear of my prawn not being able to take a fight

HOLY-

[neon turtle]

run

unless you have a seatruck

[unkempt bronze]

Okay, now that that little endeavor is over.. where do I find Marguerite's Greenhouse?

[neon turtle]

go to delta station dock
