Like there had to be other methods
And like what about ||the leviathan? It seems huge? Is it bigger than the emperor?||
Can u actually do that?
just craft a hairdryer (No)
Marg was the freelancer for hire hired to protect transgov ambassador or something from the Degrassi crew from Subnauticas story. She hated alterra before she crashed here
I know that
and how she ended up in sector 0 (even tho the story sounded impossible and made up imo
I think it's about the same size
Ah yeah
The head and hands(?) are just blown out of proportions
the torso and tail are way smaller than the emperor's.
it's to dig in solid ice
horns, maybe for snow shoveling
you can get the full scan, just scan toes, teeth, head, (horns?)
They crashed around the auroras current crash location but upon bring attacked by a reaper, she hoped on and it drug her halfway to sector 0 before she killed it. It floated the rest of the way. That's why she's got a reaper skull in her base and she now has more knowledge of the burning properties of reaper fat than she cares to
Oh. Okay, so one thing i hate about bz compared to subnautica, is that there are so few things u can scan. Like In subnautica u were litteraly able to scan everything, especially in alien bases. Meanwhile in bz, every base that i went to, had just like 2/3. No scanning operation tables, or equipment. Same thing with alterra bases. In subnautica u could litteraly scan everything in the degasi bases.
Oh! I missed the toes
scanning: Lots of things were added just before release. I think this is just lack of time
And the pda! The pda in subnautica was litteraly like always talking to u, warning u, explaining stuff u didn't even scan, and making theories and what not. Now in bz we just have ||the obnoxious alien trapped in our head, who barely makes any observations|| meanwhile the pda is silent and has a weird accent....
Well, there's spawn IDs for every artifact on bz, when you spawn them with a command they have a name when you look at it. But the world doesn't allow it. Kinda strange detail I found when making an above creative level seabase
Yeah idk. A lot of the small details in quality and the overall design of the game just kinda dropped in quality and seem all over the place...
they were hampered kinda badly by the virus
For exemple. In subnautica, u had one big story, which was formed of smaller bits. Continuous, and captivating and interesting was just great. U progressed it the deeper u went.
Meanwhile in bz they just wanted to do all sorts of stories, and all just end up kind of like side quest all over the place, which kinda stop u from caring too much if at all about any of them
And the story doesn't even progress as u go deeper neccesarily.
Like the elements/story threads, are on land, then in water, then buried in ice or in some cave and there is no real continuation
oh no! Anyway
I blame the players. Devs wanted bz to be a dlc to add to Subnautica but players were to determined to see a new game title that the devs caved
and u just have to search and hope u found all of it, then try to piece it together. Not knowing if u are actually missing parts, of if the devs left those gaps unanswered bcs they wanted to?
it kinda evolved beyond what a DLC is. It was natural. I don't think it was pressure
Not really "Anyway" lol. When ur sequel plummets into the ground a little compared to the original u should know u kinda done something wrong trying to change and rewrite a perfect formula
It's never gonna be perfect, as long as individuality exists in humanity, someone will always be unhappy
Subnautica was a tough act to follow.
I mean, i'm not trying to be mean, but it's just a bit of a let down after playing subnautica. There are also so many plotholes everywhere and everything is just all over the place...
Seeing the blueprints is a gift and a curse. Once you got the theory everyone wants the next thing to be just like the first
Yeah and when u find the recipe for the greatest anything in the world, u shouldn't really stray off so much from the recipe in ur second making of anything, that it reaches a point where it doesn't even have the same ingredients in the biggest part...
honestly, that really does not matter one bit.
Wdym?
Doesn't match the first game? This annoys me - that you care about that. I don't care one bit. Cool, I craft, I get item
Do you need logical reasons? It's been some time, crafting titanium ingots got more efficient? I don't care really
I mean... take this next exemple:
stalker teeth?
In subnautica, the architects were build up so much, to like
some beings that are so advanced they are god level
and had all these technologies, and comprehension, that we looked like monkeies next to them with ur small techie stuff
any technology sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic (or deity)
And then in below zero, we just meet a combination of ones that just waited there for thousands of years till their power almost died out
then they can't remember anything
except that they were great, and thus humans suck
but they don't really do anything to help either
humans do suck though
Or take this next exemple
Kharra
impossible virus to defeat
took out entire civilazations, and billions of these god like advanced beings weren't able to really figure it out
like they got close but they still didn't manage
because they lacked compassion? lol
What? No.
So emperor mom didn't like them, and so didn't help them
They failed bcs they were so robotic the emeperor couldn't telepathy talk to them
You come, you help her, she likes you. you get cure
Where did u get that from? No. The emperor had to hatred for them. But she was kinda bumped she couldn't talk to them.
They locked her up and broke her egg
Proabably bcs of them not actually being orgnaic
First game
Didn't the architects have a communication device as a relic in the main room of the Primary Containment Facility
The broken egg and dead baby is on display
Yeah but that's not the reason why it didn't work.
The emperor was okay with them. And did try to help them.
But she couldn't talk to them
Like she did with us.
U are just making assumptions(of her feelings towards them) and stating stuff that isn't even closely related to her reactions
You just typed a whole paragraph on how the architects are so advanced, why can't they do the work communicating to the emperor
How were they supposed to know the emperor can communicate?
Because it is intelligent and sentient
I mean, just a few hundred meters outside their door step there is a sea dragon
they don't seem to be much of a talker
and aren't even that differ from the emperor.
How are u supposed to know that if u can't talk to it.
Sea emperors are intelligent and passive
Scan its brain
Like I said, you were talking about how advanced the architects are compared to us but now you're saying they can't find out how smart a fish is
Take this for exemple. U meet a person with 200 iq. They would be classefied as one of the smartest people to ever live. But they are blind and deaf, thus they can't communicate. How can u know they have an iq of 200
Dolphins aren't talking to us in English but we still understand that they are pretty smart
Yeah there is a big difference between understanding that dolphins are smart the same way a pepper is smart,
there's some interesting research. We know dolphins have personal sounds. Names!
and understanding a leviathan is smart in the sense that it's philosophical and knows how to keep alive a whole ecosystem on their own
But the architects built the containment with that ecosystem in mind. Provided optimal conditions for hatching eggs. They were just missing the catalyst the emperor couldn't provide
Exactly.
And the emperor tried to give it to them, but her(?)/their telepathy just didn't work on them
Anyway.
We strayed off.
So, the exemple i was trying to state, was how overhyped/godlike the architects were presented in subnautica. They litteraly had a weapon that could blow up the solar system, had teleportation devices, even messed with human history a little (human sword on display).
Keep in mind that since the emperor babies have been spitting enzyme 42 across the planet for 2 years, it's safe to assume traces of it can be collected and concentrated for a quick cure in below zero
Then in bz we are met with Al-an... Who litteraly just waited for thousands of years till his power almost went off to do anything. Then keeps being useless and just waits to either die or be rescued by a human...
I think you are missing some negatives about them from the first game. Failing at aquiring a cure, for one
They abandoned the planet
Did Al An ever get word that 4546b was cured since he's been in isolation? Never caught that detail
well, alan talks to sea monkeys. No, I don't know
I mean yeah, but they were extremely close. They litteraly found what the cure was, and it source. And just waited and hoped the source would give them the key, but the source didn't. And then tried a lot of other methods to do it. Then they got attacked by a leviathan and there was an outbreak.
Still. They searched thousands, if not more planets to find a cure.
And they did.
Like that's crazy impressive.
No. He had dozens of robots, and had a satellite orbiting the planet, and dozens of more bases. He could have surely used the robots to scan body parts. (or should have actually already have a scan of it).
And he could have done stuff. Including continuing research on the emperor. But no. He just chilled and awaited death. Then when he realized death was coming he was like "SOS. SOS. HELP". Then robin saves him, then he proceeds to just keep awaiting death.
U know, it really makes u wonder. Why did the other architects leave him/them here. Since transfering into a device/another body was seemingly a quick and smoothless process.
Maybe they also just realized he was useless...
It wasn’t like that at all. They’re networked beings. Isolated and alone he didn’t have the capacity to do what needed to be done. But not going to argue “what ifs”
What do u mean?
We know he had acess to the satelite.
It was crashed remember
And we know he was connected to everything up to some point
He was in stasis. The others died
Yeah, but i'm willing to bet that was recent. And there was a pretty good time frame in the thousands of years since the outbreak in which it was still functional
No, i'm pretty sure some architects did manage to get off the planet between the start of the ourbreak (sea dragon attack), and the quarantine being triggered(tower being powered up and shooting any spaceships entering or leaving the planet).
Or the cure for Kharra.
The architects spent so much time tring to synthesize enzyme 42. No succes.
I just got the ||Alan tissue|| from the Arctic spires
Then comes in Sam, combines 2 plants and Voila! kharra cure
It is so much easier in the prawn suit
yeah that was dumb
A lot of stuff is dumb... Like u just gonna tell me, ||Marguerite sailed in a dead leviathan half way around the globe?...||
And than alttera who seemingly has unlimited resources, and has detected and found her didn't bother at all to do anything about it?
I don't doubt she killed a reaper/
where does it say Alterra detected them though
The tower u have to stop with the test module litteraly tracks her
That's why she wanted it turned off.
or put in testing mode where it doesn't send out stuff? or whatever
The tower detected her, and her base. It was tracking her
We download it from the tower
yes
Which proabably spits out weekly reports like that
Alterra isn't present in the region anymore so they can't do anything about it
Yes but they were present.
And that tower was there since the research team was first deployed.
not when this report was created
They could've been in hiding until Alterra left
That report was made by the tower, as i said, it proabably makes a report like that weekly and spits it out
She litteraly invaded their base, and stole equipment.
Don't forget the space station you see at the start of the story
Yeah I never said Alterra doesn't know about her now
The reports the tower sends out don't matter right now because they abandoned Sector 0 so they can't do anything about it
That's proabably like a middle station? In the sense that the one on the ground send stuff to it, and then it sends stuff to alterra (long range deep space relay station or whatever)
But those reports were being made even before alterra left sector zero.
And if it can detect her now (in this report) it's only logical to assume it could have also detected her then
Yeah but what I'm saying is Marg might've been laying low while Alterra was here, so the tower didn't detect them. But after Alterra left they stopped hiding
Maybe it didn't make automatic reports, But they info was still being saved.
But she can't.
Bcs if she layed low then, it means she could have also have done it now. Which she didn't, and i doubt there was anyway for her to lay low and not be detected in the first place
why lay low when you don't have to
Bcs if the tower still detected her. A tower which now proabably just sends automated status messages to alterra, then it means she could still be detected.
And she couldn't lay lowe before.
Heck her base is like 300m deep and the tower still reads her. How could she have been laying any lower before? When she had no habitat builder or anything
When we get the report from the tower, that's right after we encountered her on the very same island
There is no way to know the report wasn't already there.
Bcs there is no way to get to the tower without encountering her.
And it's scanning system are proabably very similar to Aurora's. Which continously scanned until it's systems died.
And we can see that in the report.
There are first quite a lot of survivors, 8 hours later, it only reads us since everyone else was eaten.... (or exploded, or kharra)
accept
Do not click that. <@&85343211593166848>
sorry
joking about free nitro is an excellent way to get banned. Even a discord ban....
Imagine banned on every server
Anyway let's sum it up.
-To many small individual stories which lead to there being no actual main story which the player can really be invested in.
-So many aspects of the gameplay have been rushed, which lead to small errors like a lot of stuff being unscannable, or even the fact that the map, and the way u explore it, is no longer tied up to a main continous story. (proabably also bcs there is no longer a main continous story)
-A lot of new fun aspects/mechanics, but some are overused, while some are underused. (Snowfox, great idea, but practically useless[puts u in more danger than if u just walk, has hard controls, very limited in zones it can be used | Pengling, fun concept of small operated drone, but outside of some special areas/special tasks[collect fur] it's pointless, thus it's very limited. | Sea truck modules, nice idea, offers a lot of new stuff and adjustability, but most of them are there just to make up for simple stuff u could way easily do in cyclops [e.g, u need a whole module, just to set up a fabricator/u need a whole module, just to set up a bed])
-And last but not least, it devalues some/a lot of the main story point of Subnautica (e.g architects turn from god to being useless and helpless | kharra cure [something u work towards the whole subnautica game, and something the architects tried so hard to get] is just made by a random human who doesn't even work in biology, by mixing up 2 plants one can find in the environment)
Again, no hate, just some really off putting aspects, which make BZ a real let down after Subnautica.
Again this is just my opinion.
Really
i diddnt mean to do that
So delete it.
typo
I did not mean to spam....
How do I turn on cords on console
Have they announced an expansion or new Subnautica?
Subnautica below zero is super cool
Below Zero didn't really have much end game or replayability or reason to use the cool new base building objects
yea
So after 50+ hours I kinda want more stuff lol
You have very good points KTM. I do however have comments on the cure. The ecosystem two years ago was contaminated with kharra all over until we released 5 baby cure factories. Is it possible the ecosystem evolved info providing micro doses of enzyme 42 after 2 years of its release? May make it easier to find the cure in present time
Also. Yeah. I forgot to mention this, but there is a lot less stuff to explore in BZ since the map is quite smaller.
I mean yeah. I agree with that. U can find enzyme 42, and u can collect it.
ye
But what sam did, was she made a whole new antibacterian. And from just 2 plants!
NICE
The peeper was already sending micro doses all over the planet before we released the baby leviathans though. The ecosystem already had traces of it
I checked online, apparently no new subnautica game anytime soon
She didn't study enzyme 42, or try to synthesize it like the architects did. She just started micing stuff, and out of nowhere just found it
They are working on some new, different game instead
dang
Yeah but they were all from the emperor. No other creature was able to release the enzyme
And just bcs a substance is present in ur enviorment it doesn't mean u can also evolve to produce it.
Especially not in 2 years.
I hope when they make the new subnautica years from now that they completely abandon the other story lines. Just keep alterra and the lore, but make entirely new stories and protagonists
Different planet(s) etc
Evolution take hundreds, if not thousands of years. And it didn't manage to do it in the thousands of years till we got there, and then it succeds right in the 2 year time frame. That's just so implausible.
It won't evolve in two years if compared to earth years and ecosystem history this is an entirely different planet
And it litteraly just sounds like plot armor.
evolution rates depend on species
that's why scientists use fruit flies to test genetic concepts
Plus we released thousands times more enzyme 42 when we freed the babies
I wouldn't try to make sense of the subnautica storylines. It was disjunct in Below Zero
It doesn't matter. For any significant changes to accure in a creature's physiology it needs to go through hundreds of generations
It doesn't matter if the quantity of enzime is more. Creatures don't just change magically to replicate it in 2 years. And even if they did (which is impossible), that's not what sam did.
She litteraly made a whole new anti bacterial that wasn't even related to the enzyme.
Through the mixture of litteraly just 2 plants.
ye
I wouldn't try to make sense of the stories in the game
It's implausible and absurd.
can you still interact with the frozen leviathan for the kharaa sample?
It says i need an injection tool, but I dont know what it means
That's exactly what i'm saying. BZ messed up a perfect story which made sense, and bassicaly retcons main aspects of the story of subnautica
You need to use a spy penguin to get something for that part
No. U need to put it in the bot next to the leviathan
Maybe they're not replicating it but the generation that was around for the initial release could have soaked up a good majority of it. As time passes the enzyme could've been passed down through fertility and the need for the enzyme would've went down as well as kharra was eradicated off the planet. I'm just trying to fill a plot hole
what do i put in it though
But that's not the plothole.
Well if you already have the antidote, then you don't need the spy penguin anymore
And that's not what i was talking about, nor what sam did, nor what the game reffers to.
If you don't have the antidote, then I think you need to get it first
You don't need to craft the antidote as long as you find it with the pengwing right?
I'm not sure why you two are discussing the story. It's not a good story in Below Zero. It's a mess
I did poke holes in how kharra was eradicated, nor in how quickly the enviorment and it's fauna flurished. Doesn't seem exagerated but still plaussible.
I was talking about, how sam was litteraly able to find a cure a brand new cure, in way less than the architects, and one that is so much easier to use.
You put the antidote in the robot, which is what I was referring to earlier about the spy penguin @sand plank
ok so where do i get the antidote
Bcs it litteraly just needs u to smash 2 plants together
Hard to explain. The location is poorly drawn on a map that you can find in-game
If u don't have it yet, why do u ask us to tell u how to inject the leviathan?
KTM he clearly didn't know he needed it
Well i was asking what it meant by i needed something to inject
What?... but it's common sense... like ... u first look for what u need to inject, then u ponder how the syringe works.... U don't first use the syringe, then go around looking for the actual thing u need to inject...
I happened to have found the antidote using the spy penguin prior to entering that frozen leviathan spot in my playthrough
It was awkward to find though
well i left my spy penguin at my base:/
ill put stuff like that in a quantum locker maybe
is there a prawn achievement in this game?
not on steam
ye
Why dose the spy pengling have such a short range. I'm pretty sure rc cars have more of a range. Hell the curiosity Rover on Mars had more range. You'd think that being this advanced would mean that the spy pengling can go just about any distance
the uh, wifi suffers from cold
Yeah no. That's not a thing.
We have drones which work way better nowadays.
Also, why would u conntrol it from that little remote, when we have pdas?
Sam wasn't much of a brainiac with the pengling
Yeah
Also what's with it being controlled by something that's the Subnautica equivalent to wifi. God Sam had so many flaws with the spy penglings.
early model ok? Antenna too small
Everyone look in meme media chat
no
no, looks like drama. I have an allergy
I deleted it il just tryna help my team. Sorry
So if I head North from the Drop Pod, I get to ||Outpost Zero||?
kinda. it's hidden under an ice shelf
more northeast I think
yes,. east of your crash site
As overall technology advances, so does the most default model of new technology
the pengling is not quite a prototype, but nearly
Are you sure ||OP Zero is East?|| When I look at the Alterra Facilities Map, it says it's north of Delta Station
Could be interference limiting it as well, there’s Aurora much of the time
it's slighltly east of your crash site. So very north.
Imma just go North-Northeast
the right spot has ice fruit. Go under the ice there
Ice fruit? You mean the peppers?
no, ice fruit plants, under water
Those frost heart things
yes
Ahh
I ran into a wall, imma head right
anemones or something
I can’t eat those in freedom, but I can eat peppers lol
Freedom crew!
I'm heading northeast while hugging the wall
xD
the wall dips north at the right spot. With ice fruit
land with plants is the right spot
Land with heat plants, the entrance is from the water?
yes
Outpost zero has a snowman yes
yupyup, found it >:D
there is a alien base nearby it
It's the ||Final zone, yes?||
yeah you can't do anything with it yet
until u get this man
yo there's a poster of the ||Alien Gun in the first game||
spoiler. Did I click it? It's kinda automatic
Yeah, it's Spoiler'd
Wdym “not useful”😛
that's so USEFUL!
C H A O S >:DD
It’s a skating rink party😂
it's times square
how do i acquire this item
epic gaming set up
nvm i have the thing
It’s at omega isn’t it?
i also just noticed the posters don’t stick to the wall
How did you get the oil defuser thing, and yes the thing is there, but how did you get that oil diffuser and that picture
which looks bad if ur walking down a hallway
Yeah the posters don’t align well with walls sometimes
delta i think
or was that executive toy
delta....?
Yeah, but even nowadays, all drones used for research start with a basic minimum range of like a few hundred meters.
Aromatherapy is at omega
i forgot
oh the aromatherapy, it's in Omega and maybe more
i forgot where i got poster
Underwater in lilypad
near marguerite’s base
omega is hidden ||in the largest floating rock, right above deep lilypads||
you know that really big underwater island near the cave entrance to get to margreuites base?
it’s in the middle of it
hate spikey traps
thats the only place i havent been, ive done all the stories and beaten the game, but never seen that before
It’s basically a hollowed out sunken rock omega is inside of
i avoid the lillypads as much as possiblew
lilypads is one of the more safe places
There’s good stuff in lilypads biome
yeah but i still hate it, just an eerie feeling
You’re missing out
i have everything i want, like glow whale eggs
I have to go, bbl
i didnt know spikey traps were in the deep lilypad
i just wabted to get some diamonds
spiokey traps?
and get tot he body cache
it’s required to go to lily pads
cause of the thing that shuts off the satellite
yeah i know, i got it, like i said i beat the game, i just hate the lillypads
parrell unit
||everytime i see a chelicerate i pee a little||
equips perimeter defense
I do have it, but i still hate them
i was 10000x more scared before i had the perimeter defense
same
now its not so much being scared as it is uncomfortable
i hate u
i dont have a first aid kit ob me
i never bring a first aid kit on adventures
i hate those things too, first time i met one, i saw a paddler get swallowed spontaneously, so its a love hate relationship fo rme
what do u losr when u die i forgot
same
like 92% of your inventory
dang
just no tools, but pretty much all your materials
ohhh
pro tip, sea truck insta kills the cryptosuchus
i just shock them
if you run into them directly they die instantly
dont wanna let them go into extinct
ik
i run into squid sharks lol
sad that theres no ion cube fabricator in the game
i remember i first saw one of those in a call with my friends, i freaked out and asked like 25 times if they are insta kill
I also have like one large locker filled with ion cubes, and i really dont use ion cubes for a whole lot anyway
yes you can
nice
What r u doin
what
the Lilypads is such a peaceful biome
it's places like the Tree Spires and Deep Twisty Bridges that feel eerie I would think
Corn dogs?
yes
That is how they farm them
true
anyone care to explain what the heck a Crashfish is doing all the way down here? 😂
it looks so out of place
it's waiting.
Today, you finally came. Its moment has come.
xD
I'd assume it tried to chase you couldn't find you and got lost. And after a while it's ai sorta bugged out
Look in the direction you think it most likely came from and you'll eventually find some crash fish free crystiline cave sulfur
is there anything like the cuddlefish in below zero
There's a few creatures that have passive and friendly behavior but the closest to the cuddle fish is trivalve. There's 3 colors of trivalve and two trivalve per color. Breedable with the same color, they are the only fish you can command. You can also interact with the head of a glow whale, eye jellies have passive follow behavior, pinnacarids are friendly followers that play on land and swim in the sea. Any that you breed and release stay in the vicinity of the release
yes, Trivalve
honestly I like them better than Cuddlefish although Cuddlefish are still great
Am I spelling that correctly? Trivalve
yea
i hatched a squidshark because theyre my favourite creature
will it attack me when it grows up?
also does it have space to fully grow in alien containment
I don't think it will attack you but if you release it it'll attack everything else outside including vehicles
Not enough space to grow full size
Also hostile creatures raised in containment are still hostile but they lose interest quickly
like, could i breed an army of them and then unleash it on a shadow leviathan
If it's not if it's own kind they don't attack anything larger than itself
yea
Prawn suit grapple it for your life and drill away
Attach to the rear to avoid getting eaten
ok
If you aren't on an achievement world, the stasis rifle is spawnable and it does work
huh
If you feel like using commands, the stasis rifle from Subnautica is spawnable in BZ disabled from the story but still obtainable
why does the seatruck's battery drain so fast ._.
1st question: no I don't
2nd question: only the depth module mark 1
you can bring extra cells. There are some in the wrecks also
It'll move after you listen to Marg
she said stuff, about a tower. Do not miss the truck module on the floor
premimiter defense right
And scan the snow fox on the table
yes. it's a manual fire defense
you have to ||disable the radio tower||
I guess I'm going back to the delta station island ting
first I gotta remember where's the exit
how do I deactivate
You need a t||est override modul||e. You craft it at the standard fabricator and take it to the tower
the unique unit it needs is in ||the wrecks.||
oh come on
One of them is a p||arralel processing uni||t found in the wrecks to the south of Delta Island
They're small and hard to find so take spare tanks. You need to scan 3
hi
Hi hi chicken pot pi
yes
poop graphics
fax
Where can I find the containment unit tank
Oh man, Imagine if we were allowed to mod the Seamoth back into BZ <3
Merc. II Bow, is the surrounding area dangerous?
I forgot to look for more lazer cutter fragments
now I can barely go anywhere to the broken down ship I found
PDA said it's name is mercury II
where do I find lazer cutter fragments?
Hi!
Hello
hello
mercury || ship
i think there is one near some sea monkey nest as well idk i forgot lol
well kind of yes
u can find them near the drop pod in the deep kelp caves
how do i unlock a blueprint using devconsole
unlock techType/ID
............
I joined this server to discuss the fact my save didn't save when I hopped on the next day but we'll see what happens next time
Because when I got off Subnautica Below Zero after saving then got back on my save was there
I've had below zero for a while I think even a few years, I didn't even realise it had come out of early access until today so I still haven't played it yet
It's not a bad game but it isn't as hard as the first one
I got a seatruck within an hour and a half in Subnautica Below Zero (Mind you I wasn't searching for that) yet didn't get a seaglide in Subnautica after two hours
Relatable
Todays Menu in the canteen at my main base. Enjoy! What are your prefered meals?
I'll take the Salted Peeper with marble melon and a hot tea please
anyone know of a good base spot last time i played i had it next to margarita and i cant think of another good spot rn
Your welcome! Please have a seat at my sea base.
I have one in each major biom. In the lilypad crevice I built mine in the chamber of the alien monument. It's beautiful down there. Then one in the deep lilypad caves, one on a floating rock next to Omega lab and one on the surface on top of a lilypad. Then one in tree spires next to the big vent garden and at bit further at the world border to observe the void leviathen. Then one in the east arctic just below Maidas greenhouse and four more on land in the west arctic. One at the phi robotics dock, two in the glacial basin (one next to the frozen leviathan cave and one at the lake) and one in the arctic spires to watch the ice worm. My main base is next to my drop pod location just at the edge of twisty bridges and my last base is within the twisty bridges itself. All bases except of my main base and the one on phi robotics dock are purely aesthetic, best regards, Markus
thanks now i have a ton of ideas to choose from
i also should start building small outposts (never really done it bc of the cyclops in subnautica)
I think that's the main purpose of the game, once you have completed the main plot. Building and observing and enjoying the beautiful scenery. I am a bit sad that there are no further task or random events happening (du sprichst Deutsch gell?).
when i finished the story i always built a gigant base with cyclops dock etc and then just moved thru the cool scenery with my cyclops (woran man das nur erkannt hat... an meinem Namen vieleicht)
time to replay bz
ooh my base main base was next to the island at the twisty bridges
its so centred u can reach anything
and almost every ressource is there
There is no cyclops in BZ, but the awsome seatruck with many modules. Yes, building bases is great! And having one in each biom is just stunning beautiful. (Ja, Nachtschatten ist Deutsch, daran halt).
Absolutely I was so lucky with my initial drop pod location and then my main base just next to it. Made everything quick and easy.
I didnt get a trival egg in my 1st playthrough 😩 ✋
i will do a more casual run this time
The eggs are there, did you look at the right place?
nah i only had one base
i kinda rushed the game
went from 1 story objective to the next
i meant post game in subnautica i never played post story in Bz
Yes, then of course there is the cyclops (sorry, I started with BZ).
But when you still have the save game from before you left the planet then you can just continue from there..
i started with normal subnautica and then played bz in early access
i wanna go through the fun of getting all the crap
its fun
but prawn is broken on surface pls fix subnautica
Absolutely, I did the game and then continued from there. But I also think of doing it again from the beginning.
wait can u kill the shadow leviathan and cheli
cuz i never saw someone do it
Yes, both. Its easy. Just ram it with the seatruck and the zapper modul. Then repair the seatruck and repeat. If you have the seatruck speed boost upgread then you use the speed boost just before you ram it for some extra punch.
because its kinda hard without stasis and our beloved shanker
Daniel arGGEHHEGEGEGSG
btw i never used this crafting thing on the side
I did just one big mistake that I did not scan it before I killed all three. So I am left with no scan. Shame on me.
i dont even know how to
How to what?
put crafting recipes
so u can look without going to the fabricator
go in the menu where you can look at them and click
Open the PDA and go to second panel
i mean the menu in the psa
ok andddddd i built a 2nd base at the red crystal caverns too
because georgeous
anyways imma start my 2nd run bey
bye
yeah i actually rushed it
look at the time lmao
only ten hours
no swearing in the christian subnautica server
i will probably never finish my current charac since no way in hell i will go back to that Fücking worm
my main problem is that he always throws you of the bike
The worm is hamless. It does not attack you in any meaningful way. It only kicks you off the snow fox. Let him do what he wants, then repair the snow fox and continue. It's the only way to just accept what it does and move on.
but he still anoying af
I wonder if they're ever gonna add Subnautica Multiplayer
Nope
NOW I know why they give so much food theyre fockin gigantic [look disgustang tho]
Yes, especially once you want to explore and it happens every so often minutes that it kicks you off the snow fox. At one pont they could just reduce the numbers of attacks. But it's programmed that way.
i think it would break the illusion but in maybe a subnautica 3 a multiplayer would be cool when you maybe get the big submriens so evyerthing works when more people are playing
we do a little prawn suitting
Ya know what would be a nice touch in BZ? A lil toggle to change the temperature meter from Farenheight to Celsius <3
I never exactly said just Subnautica Below Zero, yes I said it in Below Zero chat but it was the chat I was in when I got on so you know
yes
I'm just saying another game where it's either single player or Multiplayer like Minecraft
There are many other games like this in just saying Minecraft as an example
Oh, I never considered it farenheit but just a scale from 100 to 0 🙂
dosent it show the temperatue when in a vehicle
I'm confused
Yes
An open world MMO Subnautica game would be neat, but that'd have to be a whole different game. Would be pretty neat though :3
Technically Subnautica is an open world game, but because of its limit of how far you go I guess it isn't
But its not an MMO :P
I speedran too much subnautica [This is my inventory after 2 minutes]
You need some creepwine seed cluster
Would be cool for an MMO, everyone is spaced out in an open world so finding each other would be hard and maybe talk by radio, not sure how they'd implement that, I just don't want to feel lonely while in the deep dark ocean, better yet, at least I feel alone...
Yeah, those are crucial for progressing
Yes, I also feel lonely in my world and the only person left does not talk to you anymore
Subnautica is lonely but in Subnautica Below Zero, the sapient being in my head makes me feel less lonely
I would be happy if some random things were happening or some new tasks. Just something to do to make the game a bit longer
He will leave at the end. Unless you decide to keep him with you (and not finish the game
got it
I know, but that's the ending, you aren't really on your world anymore, aka 4546B
Also pitty that you cant have a snow stalker as pet. I wonder what Maida did to get hers
she probably uses some sort of black magick alone surving the reaper thing can be considerd magic
For sure, just how cute would it be when you come back to the base and it would run to you like a dog 🙂
ah and if i am not mistaken its a snow stalker the bike is the snow fox
is subnautica below zero compatible with vr?
Sorry, my mistake, Snow Stalker of course. Corrected above. Sorry.
Nah
But Subnautica, the first one is
VR is possible with a mod for now, on PC
I saw that to XD
there's a mod called Nitrox that allows you to do this, just original Subnautica though not BZ
I wouldve laughed if i ended up in the crystal caverns
oh i got tped up
welp falling once again
no way
subnautica man no way home
Dear Subnautica Team i fell under the map and i am crapping my self
- Pyro
i am not able to close the game
oh no dont say im in a creepypasta
alt f4 doesnt work
task manager neither
Guys please help its dark im under the map im hearing void noises im falling endlessly and my game doesnt close
stop posting memes. it's against channel rules
Do you find it amusing that i am under the void having a mental breakdown and cant close the game no matter what
to be honest, I do a bit
HELP ME
This is the one time i wish to drown
i know who can help
@deep kettle
pls im desperate
I found Alan on complete accident
I was just looking for ribbon plants for batteries and I just followed the black and green structures
you are sort of meant to do that, yes
only that im flying in the void with no light souce at all and cant close the game
I know but I was looking for the parts for batteries
just look at that
+void soundrack
soundtrack*
yes very relaxing being hardlocked
nah i went to alan fell down cuz it didnt load in
and now im hardlocked not able to close the game being forced to listen to the void soundtrack
yes i tried alt f4 and task manage
Get a better PC or Console, whichever one you play on
lmao i have a 980 ti and a i7 7700k
i think that isnt the problem
Try unplugging your computer then
u know that can corrupt windows
There's a chance of it doing so
Get rid of the power source lmao, close every task except for Subnautica since you can't then unplug
what
if it doesn't respond to alt-f4, your keyboard is likely not working
ok how do i write here then+
magic
ok let me try alt f4 on discord
tysm
On PC, if I switch my Windows sound output device (eg from headset to speakers) the game doesn't update unless I totally close and reload it. Is there any trick to get it to change without relaunching it?
airglide when
airglide when you enter command ghost
idk why am saying this but am going stream on subnautica
wish me luck to survive XD
XDDDD
bruh
the guy who said he will watch me
he just blocked me
or something
I've heard there was a mod for subnautica that improved the fps— is there one for BZ?
Dunno. I get to mention my 3080 Ti now
Why does venom and Alan sound so similar
we are not to talk about that
Search up the we are venom scene
k
Is the big squid in the deep twisty bridges friendly
Nope
that's a Squidshark, they have a grab attack and can also briefly disable your Sea Truck by whipping it with electrical tentacles
Am i safe to explore that place in my prawn suit
Also can any creature destroy my suit or am I always safe in it
there are definitely creatures that can destroy it
Ok am I able to drill them to death before they do
no creatures will one-hit it. Repair immediately, beause attacks have a cooldown. Meaning you are safe for 10s at least
the ||Ice Worm|| almost one hits lol
it once did 75 damage to my Prawn within a few seconds
I think it probably hit you twice there. Happened to me also
It's different, it's not an entity. Hence you can't hit it or scan it
it did hit me twice but the fact stands that it did so within a short period of time
which makes is quite deadly to the Prawn suit
it did 50 then attacked again and did 25, I was lucky it didn't do 50 both times
I likes the ending of the game
Really really cool
But last game i felt like the end was more sentimental and sad
But both endings 10/10
it really answers all the questions huh
Does anyone know how to get to the alien signal thing?
Which one
yes... follow the green blinky lights, into a side tunnel. not far, and it's full of o2 plants
oh right, which one
The one you get at the start
nah you wil have to be more clear
You get the pilot beacon and the signal one and I can't find how to get to it
It's near the twisty bridges
Sos?
It just says alien distress signal I think
Are you right above it right now or something?
I was earlier but had to get off
distress, yes, follow the green blinky lights, as above
I found one bit of alien tech but it didn't seem to go anyway
Well you can't get there from straight above it, go down and to the east until you see some green alien tech, follow it into a cave
I'm glad i waited a few days to buy below zero as it is on sale now 
Lmao. Tbh i honestly always thought Alan was evil xD
And thought Robin was careless and oblivious to just trust him blindly
Like the secrecy, then fact he was the only architect left there while all the others have fled. Once we put him into his body, and he picked us up with his propulsion canon like floating arm i was sure he was gonna turn evil and do a villian speech XD
But apparently not.
maybe he subverted her mind as he is in there
you capsed! Oh no
Yeah my bad... was trying to add some dramtic effect
I always forget
So Alan is evil! And he started the outbreak intentionally! The other architects were able to imprison him and flee!
That would explain, why even tho he was stored there, he had no access to all the other technology! Which he could have used to build himself the new body.
But he didn't have access to it, bcs the other architects locked him out of the system!
Like as if they just put him on a usb stick connected to nothing to ponder his evil doings.
But then! He manipulates Robin, into saving him, then brainwashes her into making him a new body!
And, after he gets a new body, he only keeps her around as a minion/pet! And this was Al-an's master mind evil plan from the beggining!
hi, how to deal with this bug?
everything is blue, eventhough i don't have ingredients to craft
that's new...
Reinstall it?
i guess it might be my save is corrupted, so it might not help
Ive never made the spy pengling
I have the stuff for it just didn't make it
And i forgot to save the game so now im back in the ruby area thing
how useful is the teleportation module? I feel like it's very limited due to the high cost of using it (though there might be a way to get around that) and the fact that it teleports you to the nearest module rather than to a specific one (preventing you from, say, having a module at each base and being able to teleport between bases)
and coming up with some wacky chain of architect portals with modules next to them to get around the "nearest module" issue wouldn't be reasonable due to the cost of teleportation
it costs 1/3 cube not one cube. I didn't use it much
that's still a lot, especially if you only use each cube twice as to not destroy it
and cubes are a very limited resource
How does it work?
Like the docking module i thought like it meant something else not that u cab put your prawn suit on it
I dont know
Seems cool tho i if i get that built then i have all the pieces for the truck
Is there any way to prevent the lights from flickering whenever I use the fabricator in my base? I have solar panels, geothermal power, bioreactor, and nuclear reactor...
Don't believe so
im confused did they update below zero to where u can have 4 things pinged
like to craft
I have just crossed the bridge at phi robotics island and I read a pda about ice worms, are these an actual threat and should I be worried about them?
I dont pin stuff so i dont know
there are lots of reason to.
Well i did once and it was nice but the recipes are kinda similar from last game
can't you not make the used cubes into ion battery, charge it and then deconstruct it with recyclotron for a new cube?
it's also a to-do. It also affects the sea monkeys.
that's what I was imagining you could do
What does this mean...will they eat me or are they small worms
asking for spoilers lol. They are 90m long.
Oh wait thats actually pretty smart your a genius
dunno if that works
recyclotron is super abusable
Very scary, my pda says that they can be distracted by a "thumper" how do I get this
the thumper is not very useful, sorry
just explore ahead
Okay I will try to not die
thumper is before you encounter first worm irc
and it's very noisy, you know it's going to eat you
but that's too late xd
Just run if you find one 😂
yeah that's what i did, where the hell is third motorbike blueprint
going by feet like an idiot, because blueprints are rare
and magnetite, where the hell is it, Subnautica 1 I used scanner from the start, but this playthrough i can't
there is some magnetite in the wall behind Phi
Is there any place where it just is on the wall
Very deep down
deep lilypads
yeah, which is weird, because scanner room you get early, but you can't use hud chip
I like that they made some recipes need less titanium Because its harder to find
I could because I found some in an ore vein
I really like that
inside ice bergs you find magnetite veins
You can find a bunch a bunch in the crystal caves and the red long ruby pillar things
Just very very dangerous
yeah but that's a late game imo
Yea true
why you need to reach endgame to get early game item xd
Ive somehow actually found a bunch early game and i didn't even need to find anymore after that
isn't endgame, is midgame
I just like to explore i spent alot of time doing stuff for my base and not trying to the rush the game which was fun found alot of cool stuff
Well its pretty close to endgame
Depending how far u go down
nice, I am not in the end, I love this game, shame I would finish it
I've seen crystal caves but isn't ||shadow leviathan|| in it so ran away straight away
good news: found magnetite, bad news: I hear leviathan scream
Oh no
Theres magnetite under lilypad islands wheres pink water
Its safer, i only go to crystal caves for kyanite
Where is nickel ore?
easiest: deep lilypad biome. that's the pink place
Yea i actually have a video clip of it
Down by the where the location of the pilot signal thing is in the big mushroom thing deep down
Its in a different area then the purple crystals
If i remember
Yea
Its deeper down a bit
Not too much but u have to look closely
Its all over the floor
Is it in the|| thermal spires but?||
under the lily pad biome there’s a crevasse where you can find a flower spore biome filled with nickel
there’s also an ||Architect body cache|| further down
I dont remember what those are but if u go deeper down on the back left side you should find these big big mushrooms
By her base by the island
Oh yea but thats deep deep down
And how do u do the hidden message thing i used to do it but i forgot
you mean the morse code?
oh I thought you were talking about in game
No the hidden message thing u did
you use || before and after a message
.
Oh for me its just a /
that also works
Oh i thought thats what u meant
rip
Yea
||how do i turn of the spoiler thing||
Do i just put the slash on the other side to stop it
I don’t use the / command tbh
Ok
yes
“The more you know :)”
yes yes
||hehehe haha||
I finally ||crafted ALANs body, and went to the greenhouse||, is there anything left to do?
I wanna play Subnautica but like i dont wanna stop watching shameless
Which body part all or just one
If you go down to her base under water
Go down deeper you should end up in this ||purple crystal cave|| but be careful there is a big ||"leviathan class creature"down there or whatever it is it will eat u||
He said he ||crafted ALAN's body, which means he's completed all of that.||
Ive been to the ||fabricator caverns||
||Did you also make it to the frozen leviathan cave?||
Sorry that parr confused me
I got there but i dont know how to ||cure it||
||The cure is located somewhere on the frozen land; you need to find it. Note that you need a spy pengling to get to it||
Wait there a ||frozen leviathan||
Is that extra or something because i completed the game already and never seen it
Ok thanks
yup
not as far as I know, it's been in since before the actual ending was added lol
Oh
you must've not gone far enough on land
Well i remember almost getting stabbed by the long tail thing but besides that nothing else
That's an ||Ice Worm. They are only present on the Artic Spires landmass||
West from ||delta||
yup
just keep going west, you'll know when you find it lol
Is it the same island as the phi robotics or completely different
Yea
||Would recommend taking a snowfox or prawn suit, as well as spy pengling||
yep!
Wait one more question
||so sam the girl in the game like the sister or something do we find her or not because thats what i was going on about after i finished it ||
how do i spoiler picture?
||Read the PDA logs you get when you first start the game. I think that may answer your question lol||
What a nice place for a base, oh wait
And that's why you make a mega base 
that base took me eight hours to make lol, an entire day wasted
and that was in survival
survival is weird, you respawn in your recent base and lose only some items. but no balls for hc
hc is scary just because of how many times i almost died making that base lol
like lose all my progress because I made mistake? not my cup of tea
the constant going in and out of the base to avoid getting murdered was fun
had hatches on every side, top and bottom lol
I got killed just as I was entering a base xd
but it came out nicely
is there even a safe place to build?
yes, but not great places. On top of icebergs for example
I meant in that biome with ||shadow leviathans||
You could make a base at the very entrance 🤷♂️
tilde
Shift + Enter.
I have a sea monkey babey 
deconstructing scenner room not giving coral back is a bug?
no, but losing the plugins might be
I would say use instagib to murder it
||My Trivalve babies hatched :3||
idk
im so dumb
i shouldve upgraded my prawn with a storage module first before going to the arctic spires
my inventorys boutta be fullb😭
if you have Qmodmanager installed, you must update it for console to work
Progress so far
finally moved onto my new main base and the new truck with modular stuff is just adorable! Need to download a mod though to add more than 3 modules 
Gotta say, unknown worlds team needs to really learn to patch their games. subnautica 1 as well as this game has so damn many issues.
They have fixed far more issues than remain. There are more of them on consoles atm.
How do i get the fur from the snowfox
probably easiest: spy pengling
The spy pengling?
Really
you can mimimize the time they steal from you, a lot
or, just press E (PC), hide your tool
Sea Monkeys eventually change behaviour too
yes, early game, really
Killed what
monkeh respawn
yeah they start doing that when ||Al-An gets inside your head||
Yeah
although apparently they also stop doing it again when ||you build his body|| which is incredibly annoying
I thought they were gonna stay nice forever
apparently they help him, not you
I guess they're familiar with him
well at least you can still get renewable resources from Rock Punchers
before I do any ||body constructing|| I'm gonna have to pin a bunch of lead-heavy recipes and just get a bunch of monkes in one area so I can get tons of lead
cause that's probably one of the most annoying resources to get
I don't think they work like that
they do
but they do.
Sea Monkes can see your pinned recipes and give you resources based on what's in there
Woah
if you have no pinned recipes they give you default stuff like titanium and creepvine samples
If you don't accept it, you ruin their week
I wonder if Al-An is giving them instructions on what to gather in some way
