below-zero-chat

[twin crane]

I went in the cave

[west mountain]

Yes, you have to

so go up, find the way to the tower

Follow the light stick

wherever you can

[twin crane]

Ohh

[west mountain]

This is true for the entire game. When you see light sticks, there is something to find there.

[twin crane]

so I’ll be able to go inside the antenna

can’t wait (no spoilers please)

[west mountain]

Ok, no spoilers then

[twin crane]

My o2 is at 45 is there anyway to increase it

[west mountain]

You have to craft an O2 tank

And then upgrade it

[twin crane]

oh ok thanks

[west mountain]

The standard 02 tank blueprints are already in your PDA. But there is more to find to update it to a better model

[humble cradle]

i am in a bit of a pickle

[west mountain]

Go ahead

[humble cradle]

big worm

im on land

[west mountain]

Arctic spires

Beautiful area

[humble cradle]

yeah but its right by me

[west mountain]

Great, watch the show and enjoy

[humble cradle]

no i will continue to stay paused

[west mountain]

Why, its a beautiful animal watch what it does

[eternal garnet]

ok, it was a good game, shame it has to end

[humble cradle]

doesnt distract from the fact its big and wormy and spikey

[eternal garnet]

it is very wormy.

[west mountain]

Yes, absolutely outstanding

[humble cradle]

i have a few items in my inventory

[west mountain]

Most important are health kits

How many you have?

[humble cradle]

idk

none im on a scavenger hunt

im just walking around tbf

hi

[west mountain]

Then continue and let the ice worm do what it has to do

[humble cradle]

if i must

[west mountain]

Oh, that is totally up to you, but if you follow the story at one point you will have to 🙂

[humble cradle]

i do not care about story i care about survival 🙏

but i will just die anyway

is there even anything beneficial over that way

[west mountain]

Depends that you are looking for

Are you interested in resources, alien artefacts, creature eggs, etc.

[humble cradle]

no but ill go anyway

[stoic surge]

Walk without rhythm

[next current]

I always start making music while walking on land.

[twin crane]

#subnautica-chat way more active then below zero chat

[spice seal]

because it's a more popular game

[twin crane]

how come below zero isnt more popular?

[spice seal]

well Subnautica is a lot more established, Below Zero only left early access a little less than a year ago

[eternal garnet]

Subnautica was ground breaking, a real hit. Following that up is hard

and covid did not help

[viscid glade]

Subnautica theory:

The smol squids in the caves in the shallows grow into crabsquids

the crabs in the aurora grow into seatreders

Crimson rays grow into reaper levys

Jelly rays grow into ghost levys

Lava lizrds grow into sea dragons

Well, the emporor eggs are pretty well known

[eternal garnet]

sea monkeys grow into guardians?

[viscid glade]

what are sea monkes and what are guardians

[eternal garnet]

you are in below zero chat

[nimble needle]

biology doesn't work like that tho

ray species all have toxic flesh so they're not related to any of the others

[eternal garnet]

guardians, I meant warpers

[viscid glade]

oh i am in below zero chat

[nimble needle]

also how do the lava lizards gain tentacles all of the sudden

[eternal garnet]

stop silly theories and go get BZ

[nimble needle]

how do the shuttlebugs gain an extra 7 legs

[spice seal]

lava lizards and sea dragons have different eggs

[nimble needle]

yeah

they're completely different

also crabquids and shuttlebugs have different eggs entirely

and the ghost leviathan lifecycle is the most documented and detailed lifecycle out of any of the creatures so them coming from rays all of the sudden makes 0 sense.

[eternal garnet]

it's documented?

[nimble needle]

yes in the PDA's

[eternal garnet]

but I want eggs. Cute baby ghosts.

[nimble needle]

first: eggs. you get that from scanning the cove tree. second: juvenile. you get its early years as carnivores in the lost river from the juvenile. third: adult. you get it's later years as filter feeders in open water from the adults

[buoyant isle]

this photo has just everything

[carmine bobcat]

i cant find any kelp forest just a bunch of creep vines, im kind of stuck..cant find any new blueprints to build for my base

[nimble needle]

creepvines are kelp forests

[carmine bobcat]

oh okay well can u tell me where i can finc a gav trap?

[stoic surge]

What blueprints are you looking for?

[eternal garnet]

for buildings, find the bases on the wall map you got in Delta

[carmine bobcat]

glass tubes and stuff where i can put eggs

ok ill go back to delta and see

[eternal garnet]

the delta map is in your PDA under Alterra/maps. If you scanned it

[carmine bobcat]

im just following the beacon there, i need to scan that map

[eternal garnet]

maybe you never visited. Lots of stuff there. Important tool outside the delta door, easy to miss

[copper pagoda]

I didn't know there were crashfish in the purple vents!

I punched one to death with my prawn but that was a surprise.

[stoic surge]

The Devs could have left those out of BZ, but ... all we can do is deal

[eternal garnet]

back by popular demand

[stoic surge]

(scoffing sound)

[nimble needle]

i swear that they're gonna be the one fish that's in every subnautica game (if they make more)

[stoic surge]

As many people love the two games, they'd be Nuts to not make another

[west mountain]

Its more deadly than any leviathan

I was only killed by crah fish

[stoic surge]

Imagine a crash-leviathen ... (eek)

[west mountain]

Three of them in one go

[spice seal]

they plan to

[west mountain]

Boom boom boom dead

Have you ever released a breaded crash fish in the wild

[nimble needle]

excellent

crash leviathan would be a nuclear bomb

[west mountain]

I rhought it would happily swim around

But no

[carmine bobcat]

tbh i didnt find anything,i only found a mineral scanner a cpu chip and some crystalline sulfur, i followed the lights but i couldnt reach that tower

[west mountain]

Go further

[eternal garnet]

go in tunnels to go up

ah. at the mineral scanner desk, go right

[carmine bobcat]

i went all around

[eternal garnet]

You missed it

find mineral scanner desk, face it, go right

[west mountain]

Not around but up

[carmine bobcat]

ok ill go back after i eat in a bit i probably did miss it

i got the other pda thing too where that guy is talking about losing his tools

[west mountain]

There is a path for sure

[bronze patio]

The moon pool data bank entry in below zero says it fits a seamoth or prawn suit

[eternal garnet]

it does. If only you can find a seamoth. It also fits a seatruck with no modules

[twin crane]

I barely see the light sticks

[west mountain]

Its not a highway

Just suttle hints

[twin crane]

bro what

some robot just fell

[stoic torrent]

kinda proud of my self lol kinda

[twin crane]

nvm worked it out

[west mountain]

You kill it you monster

[stoic torrent]

sorry

he was so cute 😏

[west mountain]

Tell it was an accident

[stoic torrent]

yeah

[west mountain]

Did you scan it

[stoic torrent]

my mining arm of my prawn ripped off like 25000 times on the leviathan (an accident)

[stoic torrent]

of course

[west mountain]

I hit it with the seatruck 25 times accidently

[stoic torrent]

or did he hit you 25 times lol ?

that is the quqestion

depend on the pov lol

[west mountain]

Yea that was how it happened

[carmine bobcat]

ok im at the dock, which direction do i go i dont want to messup this time

[west mountain]

Up

[carmine bobcat]

like north?

[twin crane]

I'm so confused I'm now next to the antenna what do I do?

[stoic torrent]

Up lol

[eternal garnet]

no, up the hill, into tunnels, find the desk again

[stoic torrent]

disable it

with the test module

but before you have to find a parallel processor

[west mountain]

Just follow your instinct

[stoic torrent]

on the shipwreck

[carmine bobcat]

ok im up it sperated into two paths, left or right

[eternal garnet]

don't know. try to enter caves to pass thru

[spice seal]

I get lost a lot on Delta Island, just look around

[stoic torrent]

you have to enter into test mode

[stoic torrent]

left

then go up in the cave

[twin crane]

What?

[spice seal]

they can't yet

[stoic torrent]

yeah, you have to click on the button test mode but you can't yet

[spice seal]

sounds like there at the island for the first time

[stoic torrent]

take the ladder of the antenna

[west mountain]

Go up the antenna

And look around

[stoic torrent]

scan the test mode module

craft the test mode module, and disable the tower

find the parllel processor in a shipwreck

[stoic torrent]

Mercury II

@twin crane

[twin crane]

mercury II

[stoic torrent]

yes

[twin crane]

where is that

[stoic torrent]

next to the island

[twin crane]

Pilot - last known location thingy?

[stoic torrent]

did you scan the test mode module before

up the antenna ?

[stoic torrent]

nope

you have to scan the test mode module thingy by taking the ladder on the antenna

and then you have the craft of it

[spice seal]

you could just let them

[twin crane]

cant scan it

[spice seal]

find out on their own

[stoic torrent]

wut ?

do you have the scanner ? 😂

[twin crane]

yes

[stoic torrent]

so why can't you scan it ?

you already did it ?

[twin crane]

Is there a specific spot I need to scan?

[west mountain]

The module is not at tge antenna

[stoic torrent]

send me a pic pls

[stoic torrent]

yes

[west mountain]

There is a pda to pick up

[twin crane]

I picked it up

[stoic torrent]

and a broken test module

[west mountain]

Pilot

[stoic torrent]

take the ladder

and find the broken test module

[twin crane]

I went up the ladder

[west mountain]

Its not there

Its in maidas basr

[stoic torrent]

what do you mean ?

[west mountain]

You are jumping through the story

[eternal garnet]

yeah. bamboumortel is misleading

[stoic torrent]

oh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah

[west mountain]

Yes

[stoic torrent]

sorry

I totally forgot

[west mountain]

You go way too fast

[stoic torrent]

I was confused cause in the beta the test module was broken and on the antenna

[west mountain]

Let them find out themselves

[stoic torrent]

my bad

[west mountain]

No prob

[stoic torrent]

so @twin crane just follow the signal of the pilot and then you're on your own

my bad I confuse with the beta

[eternal garnet]

Minor hints to find her base: Go down at the beacon and into a tunnel. Full hints: ||Near the beacon, below, there's a trench with glowing wall plants. Follow those, and o2 plants and light sticks North-West, down to 360m||

[stoic torrent]

shhhhhhhh

i know it can be hard but come on

[elfin stag]

whats up

[twin crane]

So I need to get to her base and not do whatever you said before

[twin crane]

Hi

[elfin stag]

hello

[eternal garnet]

truck MK1 upgrade will do, you can swim the last bit

[twin crane]

Will try all this tomorrow

I’ll first need to return to my base

[stoic torrent]

when you say tomorrow you mean past midnight right ? right ? DO NOT GO TO BED, STAY UP ALL NIGHT LIKE ME AND MY 2000 HOURS ON THIS F**GAME

sorry

[eternal garnet]

You can never leave

[west mountain]

Hotel California

[vital robin]

Have yall tried SCANNING the void leviathan before....

[eternal garnet]

if you scanned the cheli, you can't. it's the same pda entry

[elfin stag]

i die all the time from them

[rare forum]

what outcrop does gold come from? i am just coming back to subnautica lol

[eternal garnet]

in below zero it's Calaverite. Note the channel

in SN it's sandstone I think

[carmine bobcat]

Calverite looks identical to sandstone outcrops in subnautica

so it ain't hard to find

[elfin stag]

||ALAN ||is kinda cute

[carmine bobcat]

HUH

I got another warning for caps

I really got warned for using "s!mp"

I had to censor it because this stupid bot considers it foul language

Like really

[rare forum]

thanks, where can i find it?

[carmine bobcat]

A lot of ores can be found in the coppa mine, it may also be found in the purple vents i think

[eternal garnet]

kelp root caves. Delta has a cave full of them, if you go up top, then down the stairs

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah what he said

[rare forum]

alright, i havent even gone over to delta yet so i will do that no

thanks for the help

[carmine bobcat]

I'm still in awe that I got warning for calling someone a s!mp

[rare forum]

haha

[carmine bobcat]

Can't even make Phineas and Ferb references now

What has this world come to

[elfin stag]

is there only one ending

[eternal garnet]

yes

[elfin stag]

damn

[rare forum]

at the delta station dock im finding a ton of limestone on the island, but no calverite

[eternal garnet]

go up to the base, then down the staircase on the left probably

[carmine bobcat]

i would explore delta just for story progression since you're already there

[eternal garnet]

its the only way I can find it

[rare forum]

alright

[carmine bobcat]

meat the bad woman

[rare forum]

i did

[elfin stag]

the badass woman

[carmine bobcat]

The woman who was dishonorably discharged from the military for who knows what

[rare forum]

yay i found the calverite

tysm

[lucid lark]

Yall chillin?

[carmine bobcat]

yeah i'm reading about method overriding in c#

[compact torrent]

Okay! Apparently going that far southwest in hardcore was a bad idea

[lucid lark]

Why?

[compact torrent]

because

(i died)

[lucid lark]

Delta islan is pretty bad

Man I want sum big to come to subnautica

Bz

[compact torrent]

oh, not delta, all the way to the corner of the map, at the edge of the final cliff and the beggining of the ice wall

[lucid lark]

Oh

U went out of the border

So they spawned to kill ya

[compact torrent]

p. much, yeah, although i didn't actually go out

[lucid lark]

Yea

[compact torrent]

still on solid ground, but apparently I was outside the map

kinda bs, but whatever, good experience

i wonder what the ground equivalent is, if you manage to escape the map over the ice

[eternal garnet]

your first run was hardcore? huhu

[compact torrent]

yup

same in subnautica, but it was much easier

[lucid lark]

Sheeeesh

[inner zenith]

dang

[compact torrent]

hey, whatever, I lost like 10 hours over 2 days, now I know where to search for the base builder

[lucid lark]

Man I'm dyin

Yuhhh

Bruh the hardest part in the game was to get lithium but now its Hella ez

[compact torrent]

idk man, took me a while to figure out you actually can enter the ||ventgarden's b***hole|| to get the spiral clips

or its mouth? I meant its mouth.

[eternal garnet]

maybe it's both. Nature is beautiful

[rare forum]

which biome is a good place to build my first base?

[eternal garnet]

south end of twisty bridges, or tree spires

[rare forum]

alr thanks

[chilly niche]

rq, How doni get into mercury 2 bow?

nvm

[sturdy kite]

why does the player character get stuck on every single object taller than a pebble

its very annoying

[compact torrent]

yeah it's like robin's hitbox got teeth

the prawn is like that too

[chilly niche]

I cannot find the marge greenhouse and for the life of me i cant do it i dont have water

[eternal garnet]

From Delta beacon, go 1130m East. Look back at the beacon so that it is 1130m West from you. It is also south a little bit. The iceberg has an arch, boxes, bones and lights on it. It's the last iceberg before the void.

[chilly niche]

isnt that the ice wall? im here its just dark and i cant go pastthis giant ice wall blocking the way

[eternal garnet]

no. the ice wall is north and west

[chilly niche]

im confused because i cant get past it its bigger than any other iceburg

[eternal garnet]

east you got icebergs, and then the void. Void is worse than a wall...

[chilly niche]

i can tell feom subnautica experience

Ghost leviathans suck

[eternal garnet]

did you remove the delta dock beacon?

[chilly niche]

sbz leviathans suck worse

no

Im here at the architect

[eternal garnet]

Move so that the beacon is 1130m West, north a little also

[chilly niche]

artifact iceburg

im on top of the artifact iceburg

[eternal garnet]

oh you are very close then.from the satellite go south-east

[chilly niche]

i legkt cant see a thing

Its dark and theirs a blizzard

[chilly niche]

.

[eternal garnet]

typical. Just go SE

[chilly niche]

welp if i die, I die, i made a save point a bit ago so

I SEE IT

giant iceburg with a slant right?

southeast

lightning lit it up for a second

[eternal garnet]

maybe. It has an arch, lights, boxes

[chilly niche]

saw it

Pretty sure thats it

THANKS YOU @eternal garnet

[still marten]

The Jukebox have TryHardNinja now that's something

[chilly niche]

wdym?

they have jt music,

[eternal garnet]

note that one of the pdas give you a food recipe. It is very good

[chilly niche]

Prestons plant

Ive played before just not much

[still marten]

Going to the Jukebox in cycle through until you reach TryHardNinja

[eternal garnet]

you have to find most of the jukebox tracks in the world

[chilly niche]

ah

welp i have 200 hours in subnautica but i have 10 in sbz

so i have alot of work to do

[still marten]

It's in the sleeper model for the sea truck

[chilly niche]

this game surprisingly made me overcome the fear of Immediate death

[still marten]

See

[chilly niche]

yeh

Btw does this mean i can go into the othe rpart of marges base

i want the goodies in there i can see a few

[eternal garnet]

yes

[chilly niche]

alrighty

and i got the pda

whats so good about this fruit salad?

[still marten]

Have y'all heard of TryHardNinja

[chilly niche]

bruh

[eternal garnet]

op stats, grows indoors, does not expire

[chilly niche]

good enough to carry around everywhere

[still marten]

I found out about him when I was listening to Fallen Kingdom by CaptainSparklez

Years ago

[chilly niche]

wait a mjnute, is the other part of marges base containing, Snowfox materials?

[eternal garnet]

no

[chilly niche]

annd also do i just follow the artifacts now

i meant fragment

[eternal garnet]

no, you have to read pda's and explore. Next is probably on land, west

[chilly niche]

btw

ah

[copper pagoda]

No creature decoys in below zero, right?

[stoic surge]

I've not seen any, would be nice tho

We do have a thumper

[copper pagoda]

I want to distract the chelicerate.

[stoic surge]

Just get out, it will eat you and leave your seatruck alone

[copper pagoda]

My seatruck is bugged and gets stuck a lot.

[eternal garnet]

Perimeter defense module, found ||on the pilot's floor||

It cancels leviathan attacks perfectly, if fired right

[copper pagoda]

My seatruck gets stuck every time I look down in it.

[eternal garnet]

this seems odd

build version? see options / troubleshoot

[copper pagoda]

Latest experimental

[eternal garnet]

yeah., you should not be on experimental.

[copper pagoda]

Oh.

[eternal garnet]

Since May 14

[copper pagoda]

Oof

[eternal garnet]

that should fix it

[copper pagoda]

Will I have to restart?

[eternal garnet]

erm. I'm not sure

you could watch #dev-check-ins looking for seatruck bugs fixed

Meaning, wait a few days

Save format seems to have changed a bit last couple weeks

[paper cobalt]

hiii

[stoic surge]

Speaking of changes, has anyone heard news about the moonpool upgrades?

[quick terrace]

👀 moonpool upgrades?

I'm all ears

[carmine bobcat]

are there cheat codes in this game

[nimble needle]

Kinda

[carmine bobcat]

would love to be able to swim faster

[nimble needle]

There’s console commands

[nimble needle]

Iirc there’s a command for that. At least the original. You can find a complete list on the wiki.

[carmine bobcat]

sweet, thanks!

[nimble needle]

Yup no problem

[round warren]

is there a way to evade ||the monster thing a delta station||

like distract it

[nimble needle]

In the water?

[round warren]

yeah

[nimble needle]

What color?

[round warren]

its kinda black blue is it has 4 legs

[nimble needle]

Oh the cryptosuchus. If you hurt it with like a knife they’ll leave you alone

[round warren]

ok

[nimble needle]

They’re described as being more bark than bite so they’re not a huge deal

[round warren]

so like a pack of kiodies once they get hurt the run?

[nimble needle]

Yup

[quick terrace]

I hate this bug so much

does anyone else have this problem?

it's supposed to be all black but it consistently changes most of the base to the light grey colour while some sections stay black for whatever reason

completely ruins the effect

[rare sparrow]

don't have it cause I don't own the game, but I've seen that

[quick terrace]

aww he's giving me a goodbye hug

[rare sparrow]

cute

[quick terrace]

everyone wants to give me hugs apparently xD

this is fine 😂

[compact torrent]

what would be a good early indicator on whether a spawn is good or not?

[nimble needle]

There’s not really a bad spawn

You land in the same biome no matter what so it’s not really too different

[compact torrent]

k

[quaint tendon]

Are there sea emperors in below zero?

[nimble needle]

Nope

[compact torrent]

There's worse!

I know about it!

[sturdy kite]

is there a non deployable version of the ender chest thing i forgot the name

quantum locker

that you can put inside a base

[distant ember]

Where do you change your base color?

[upbeat vapor]

you can try to glitch it through the floor, done that ALOT in old subnautica

[west mountain]

You have to build a control room

[next current]

Can I give a hug?

[rare forum]

what is the easiest way to get rubies?

[west mountain]

Koppa mine

Or in the lily pad crevice

[sturdy kite]

lily pads are easier

as in you dont need to go as deep

[fast burrow]

Vehicle Upgrade console?

[west mountain]

Useless

Only to change color or name

[fast burrow]

Also a dedicated vehicle upgrade fabricator, but for some reason u can craft upgrades at a regular fabricator

[west mountain]

Not in bz

[fast burrow]

yea in BZ, not in first game

[west mountain]

You cannot fabricate on the vehicle uograde console

Only fabricator or modification station

Thats why i find it pretty useless

[fast burrow]

Theres a small fabricator on the back wall?

[west mountain]

Really?

Ok but again no need for it.

[west mountain]

As you can do everything on the fabricator or modification station

[fast burrow]

true

[broken badge]

Did you not ever play the first game? Because it’s impossible to miss needing the VUC to make upgrades/modules

[fast burrow]

Yea, but we talking bout second game

[west mountain]

But i also built one for completeness

[fast burrow]

same bro

[broken badge]

You’re talking to a mod

[fast burrow]

i am?

Oh no

Imma head out

[west mountain]

Its a pitty that the vehicle upgread console shows you only the battery charge level and not the health level. You can see now easily see how much power it has but you have to go to the vehicle with the repair tool to check the health. Why not show both?

But Ok, its my routine to go through all the truck and modules and prawn with the repair tool anyhow so I got used to it.

[sturdy kite]

is there any non extremely frustrating way to "dock" the modules of the seatruck

to get all the items out

[west mountain]

How you do it?

You mean docking the truck to the modules? Just drive in front of the first module and turn around

It will dock automatically, or what do you mean

[sturdy kite]

no i mean dock the whole truck to my base

idgaf if the engine docks

just wanna get the items out of storage

[west mountain]

You have to take them out and bring them in your base yourself

Only the seatruck goes in the moon pool.

The rest is manual work

Or you add two storage container to your prawn suit and use that as storage too. That one goes in the moon pool and is easy accessible

[marble knot]

hey um a chelicerate is in the wrong biom im scared to get out of my base , how can I fix it

its getting very close

[west mountain]

If you have a seatruck and a repair tool, just ram it until he either goes or dies

[marble knot]

im trying!!

he's right here

[west mountain]

If you would have the speed booste upgread it would be easier. Then you can attack at full speed.

[marble knot]

i think i scared him enoght

[fast burrow]

Before u ram it, charge ur perimeter defence. Time it so as soon as its in range, max pain is released then ram him

[marble knot]

he's gone

[fast burrow]

u should have killed it...

[marble knot]

yes , he's gone now thanks guys

[wicked raft]

Oh my god these poor penglings. I'm just sitting here snatching their babies and shoving them into my seatruck storage

[dry knot]

vagaga needs to be added or else

[slow bloom]

I tried to kill him with the help of the perimitral protection module and spent all the energy (

[west mountain]

You only need two, then you can bread them in the alien containment tank and you have an infinite supply.

[wicked raft]

Oh that's much easier for my devious needs. Aka killing them for fun

Now to find efficient ways of murdering penglings

[shut orbit]

can you find your coordinates on xbox?

(for below zero)

[carmine bobcat]

yeah i didnt play it either i wanted the penguins

anyway i made a gav trap, anyone know where to get salt so my food doesnt spoil

[west mountain]

Its mostly in the north and east arctic

But if you build a water filtration machine, you get tons of it

[carmine bobcat]

its artic everywhere..

[west mountain]

It's the byprodcut of water

north and east arctic

[carmine bobcat]

i will try!

[west mountain]

Also in purple vents are plenty of it

[carmine bobcat]

purple vents?

[west mountain]

Purple vents

its where the vents are purple in color

[carmine bobcat]

ive never even seen a regular vent

[west mountain]

You have the thermal spires, these are the black ones

and a bit further are the purple ones

You want the map where you see all the bioms?

[carmine bobcat]

further from what?? what

yes please

[west mountain]

But its a huge spoiler, OK||: https://mapgenie.io/subnautica-below-zero/maps/world||

But excellent for exploration

and orientation

But if you want to produce salt in your base on your own, then build a water filtration machine. It gives you salt on a regular basis.

[carmine bobcat]

thanks!

[west mountain]

Pleasure

[west mountain]

Hmmm... something bothers me for a long time now. The toilet animation is incomplete 🙂

It opens and closes the lid and flushes, that's not how it works. It should be like the chair. Open lid --> Sit down --> E (exit) --> Flush and close lid

[quick elk]

NO

i just realized it

rdjfj

[carmine bobcat]

Hello, i am from poland and I play subnautica and subnautica below zero on console. I just wanted to say hi

[west mountain]

Hi

[stoic surge]

The Devs sent a survey a while back, asking players what moonpool upgrades they would be excited about, but I haven't heard of their progress lately

[quick terrace]

ooh

I had not heard about this

do you have the link to the survey?

[stoic surge]

It might still be in the 'announcements' channel

[quick terrace]

was it the one about docking in BZ?

[stoic surge]

I believe so

The one I rated highest was the auto-repair, like the Cyclops could do

[carmine bobcat]

where do i go after that lady says get off my land

[west mountain]

But then I would like the vehicle modification station also to show the repair percentage, not only the battery charge 🙂

[west mountain]

Of course you don't listen to her

[carmine bobcat]

well yeah but do i follow her

[stoic surge]

Keep exploring that area, there's lots of stuff on that island to scan

[west mountain]

Where did she go?

[carmine bobcat]

ok ty

she jumped off some rock

[west mountain]

Your PDA will track her down

[carmine bobcat]

ty

[west mountain]

Stay on the island and go up

Lot's of good stuff to scan there

[stoic surge]

Who knows what they will cook up for us, all I know is I'm gonna build all the things, lol

[west mountain]

And don't miss the tower

[pseudo ferry]

wrong chat sorry p_p

[west mountain]

I would like some new recipies for food. What about fish and chips: Chinese potato, hoopfish and salt. Hmmm....

[quick terrace]

yeah that would be nice, I've wanted that myself

[stoic surge]

I haven't heard any news about it lately tho

[quick terrace]

this one is probably a bit far out but it'd be epic if you could connect multiple moonpools side by side and have them form one big space instead of 1 or 2 connecting corridors, and with that space you could dock an entire Seatruck with all its modules inside (depending on how many moonpools you have) and be able to rearrange them while they're docked

or have them be able to stack vertically or something like that to do the same thing

[stoic surge]

All I know is when it comes, I will build one

[quick terrace]

same here : D

[west mountain]

But then also including the prawn on the docking module. That's what I have. Two moonpools separated by two glass tubes of the length of my seatruck, so the seatruck goes in the first and the prawn in the second and the modules stay underneath.

[quick terrace]

that would be interesting

[reef owl]

For those that need help today, I will be available and online for the next 7 hours

[humble lava]

hi, is there ANY way to disable the console in the latest version of the game? I already used cheats in 2 playtroughs (i feel bad and dont like it so i wanna restart) and yeah that's that, hope you can give me an answer!

[eternal garnet]

Really weird. You mean enable? Just press shift-enter

[humble lava]

no, disable

like doing smth so shift-enter does nothing

[eternal garnet]

you want to disable a console that starts disabled?

[humble lava]

it doesn't start disabled

[eternal garnet]

yea no you can't

[humble lava]

oof

[eternal garnet]

it does start disabled.

[humble lava]

and can you disable it again if u enabled it?

[eternal garnet]

Every time you restart BZ it's disabled again

I think no. Except restart BZ

[humble lava]

wait really?

[eternal garnet]

yes. Test it by pressing enter. Nothing happens.

[humble lava]

it isn't for me, in my creative world i always have it enabled. Is it a creative thing?

[eternal garnet]

After enable, Enter will open console

[humble lava]

ok

[eternal garnet]

note that shift-enter does not "open console" it ENABLES it

[humble lava]

ooooh okay okay

now i understand, thanks!

[eternal garnet]

and then you just press Enter

[humble lava]

kk

[carmine bobcat]

the fabricator wont let me make a multipurpose room

[west mountain]

You mean the habitat builder?

You have to get a scan from the room first

[carmine bobcat]

ok ty let me see if i have the recipe for the habitat builder

[west mountain]

That's what you need to build bases, excellent, then make one

A small trick how to get out quickly of your seatruck when you have modules attached. If you park your seatruck vertrically and then press E (Exit) you are immediately in the water. No need to click and climb the ladder.

[eternal garnet]

yes, if the floor is tilted more than 45 deg, you go directly out, because you could not walk in there

[west mountain]

Very convenient for a quick gathering run.

[humble lava]

i never knew that

and will probably forget in 2s sadly

[west mountain]

🙂

You have to try it, then you remember

[humble lava]

i do it involuntairly

[west mountain]

Also I noticed that having two drill arms on your prawn does not speed up mining resources. The ore veins take the same amount of time to disintegrate regardless of one or two drill arms. Can anybody confirm?

[reef owl]

Can confirm, can also confirm the near uselessness of the propulsion cannon arm as it does not suck things into it's inventory

[west mountain]

Yes, I notice that one too today. After 300 hrs of game play I made my first propulson canon to get|| behind the boxes at Phi Robotics ||and I was not able to pick up anything.

[carmine bobcat]

wheres silver and gold?

[west mountain]

Sea Monkey caves

Twisty bridges

Thermal spires

[carmine bobcat]

i thought there nest was around the kelp

[west mountain]

Seamonkey caves are in creepvine areas

or *Kelp"

[reef owl]

Yeah, below zero had a lot of map design changes during it's beta phase. Lack of time and COVID meant quick and often poor map cutoffs. There's plenty of "caves" that are blocked by icicles and other entities.

[carmine bobcat]

ohh ok

[marble herald]

i wished they had more time making below zero

i would’ve loved at least more lines for alan and stuff

[west mountain]

I wished for more stories once you decide to stay

[reef owl]

It's one of the biggest factors that controlled how we play it today. I feel it was rushed and unfinished when it officially released.

[west mountain]

Once you are done with the story you are on your own and nothing changes anymore

That's a bit sad

And the only other person left on the plantet does not talk to you anymore

[marble herald]

yeah and i wished they kept somethings from when they first were making below zero

[marble herald]

true i wished she was more involved

[reef owl]

I blame the transition from "Below zero the DLC" to actual game.

[west mountain]

I know I repeat myself but I like Fred.

I like the BZ Trailer with Fred and how it picks up the story told in the PDA

[marble herald]

freds a funky guy

[west mountain]

"I am save in my seatruck, save and very very brave" and then he spills the coffee

Hillarious, the "low maintenance guy"

with his mustach wax 🙂

I really like his character

[marble herald]

that smile is threatening

[west mountain]

And I hope they fix the toilet in BZ

[marble herald]

what’s wrong with it

[west mountain]

You cant sit on them. My Robbin character alreay suffers from constipation.

[marble herald]

oh 💀

[west mountain]

Animals hatched from creature eggs and relased in the wild behave differently from the truly wild one. I just released three lily paddler and they are no longer mesmerizing.

Makes them adorable to watch closely

In the lily pad crevice

[unborn grove]

Am I correct in that there hasn't been a single PC patch since release? Was 1.0 just incredibly polished?

[eternal garnet]

No it's been patched once or twice

[unborn grove]

Sweet! I couldn't see any patch notes on Steam

[eternal garnet]

on the menu screen there's a month, and it's not May

[next current]

There was a very small one. Also, we'll probably be getting a bigger bug fix patch this year.

[unborn grove]

Seems like it was 5 months ago https://steamdb.info/app/848450/depots/

This one: https://steamdb.info/patchnotes/7212344/

[abstract tinsel]

yall i just found out the shift to toggle sprint lets you hold ur items while sprinting...

[next current]

Yeah... you can run without holstering tools in this game.

A feature that is being backported to Subnautica 1.

[amber hawk]

The question of those who played below zero, how hard is getting titan? in subnautica 1 you only need to recycle scrap

[eternal garnet]

not hard. it's in every biome

[amber hawk]

Good

Subnautica below zero doesn't sound as good to me as number one, it is more of a survival task game than an exploration survival game

[next current]

Deep Purple Vents tho... it no have titanium source.

[west mountain]

Once you have the prawn suit drill arm, you have an almost unlimited amount of titanium at your disposal

The entire world border is littered with drillable titanum nodes.

[stuck mural]

Hey all. Is prawn really necessary in BZ? I got plenty of resources already.

[west mountain]

And quarz and copper and silver

I did not use it for the regular game play

But for the drillarm its useful

To mine resources

[stuck mural]

I completed BZ last year and as far as I remember, there is no real need for extra resources.

[west mountain]

I just carry it around with the docking module and only deploy it when I am at an ore veine

[stuck mural]

I just want to progress with the main story, that's all. Which is why I'm asking 🙂

[west mountain]

or drillable node

[ember merlin]

i never really used the prawn apart from traversing on land so i didnt freeze, but its always up to the player

[west mountain]

For the main story without heavy construction there is no need for the prawn.

[stuck mural]

hey, that is actually smart. Snow fox was really hard to control, I remember

[west mountain]

But other people love it very much. Me not so much

[eternal garnet]

it's not required at all no

[west mountain]

Snowfox is fun, but hard to control

I like how they made it

A bit of a challenge

Why not

[stuck mural]

original Subnautica was such a hell to get through 😄 and prawn was mandatory, but not in BZ, it seems. But that is fine too. Different type of game

[west mountain]

But you can always pack the snowfox. That makes it very versatile

[eternal garnet]

It's upgraded, and preferred by some. once you have the grapple

[stuck mural]

should I cover stuff in spoiler-tags to ask plot questions here?

[eternal garnet]

yes, if its not early game

[ember merlin]

its more of a courtesy but you should do it

[stuck mural]

So, I already visited || the woman in the greenhouse || and there doesn't seem to be more story with || her|| - does ||her|| story ends here? Should I start visiting some of the other areas on the map to progress the story? I also been in || the mines|| but didn't find anything story-material.

[west mountain]

Well, she gave you|| all the hints she could, now you have to find the fate of your sister yourself||

[next current]

Define "different type of game."

[west mountain]

The mine has some ||cool resource and scans and some PDA. Everything adds to the story.||

[stuck mural]

I think I slept then. Any hints? All I found was 2 voice log PDAs... as far as i remember

[stuck mural]

more chill. Original felt like a true horror game to me, just completed it yesterday for 2. time

[west mountain]

Now look at the|| map from delta and go to all the places you have not yet been||

[next current]

Heheheh... I get it.

[eternal garnet]

you should investigate the distress signal you probably got when passing twisty bridges canyon

[next current]

Also... the Prawn was also optional in Subnautica.

[stuck mural]

And even though I hated it, i already kinda miss it... the human masochism

[west mountain]

You needed it ||to drill kyanite, no?||

[next current]

[west mountain]

You can always build it and have fun with it.

[stuck mural]

the || alien / al-an || one?

[eternal garnet]

yes

[west mountain]

Yes, you|| have AlAn ?||

[eternal garnet]

he is in fact the main storyline that ends the game

[west mountain]

If you want it to end 🙂

[stuck mural]

ok thanks, will try those other areas

[west mountain]

Excellent!

[stuck mural]

i did that as one of the first things, early

[west mountain]

Yes, its mostly the first you encounter.

[eternal garnet]

didn't seem important lol

[west mountain]

And check|| all the beacons you got||

[stuck mural]

I find these Subnautica games really hard to play without the guides

it's really vague and esoteric as to where to go, etc.

[eternal garnet]

the key is to explore everything. it doesn't hold your hand

[west mountain]

The good thing is you are under no time pressure at all

And you can do things in the order you like

[stuck mural]

|| || these are the beacons i have - the blue ones are visited

how do i mark a pic as spoiler?

[west mountain]

Yes, you can mark the entire picture

and select the spoiler tag from the menu

[stuck mural]

ah, there - thanks 😄

[eternal garnet]

that's a spoiler? lol

[west mountain]

And all the Alterra beacons you have visited?

I mean the ones you already got.

Then you are good to go to new places

And listen carefully to the PDAs, they contain many hints

[stuck mural]

I visited Delta station, ofc - and the Pilot last known location

[west mountain]

Excellent, then go to new places.

[stuck mural]

I think BZ has an excess of voice logs that are distracting. Didn't find anything important yet. Just flavor stuff

[west mountain]

BTW, you can craft your own beacons and mark places of interest to yourself.

There are some important ones 🙂

[stuck mural]

I am doing that all the time 😄

[west mountain]

But I agree, some might relveal there importance only afterwards

Excellent, at one point I had to collect my beacons because I littered them everywhere 🙂

[stuck mural]

I just hide them. I try not to obsess too much about perfection in my 2. playthough and getting too many mats, just getting through the story and not get too distracted

[west mountain]

Yes, I hide them too, I meant the beacons that lost their meaning because I already know the place by heart

[stuck mural]

building a pretty base was fun the 1st time but now i just made a little, compact, practical base to serve its needs

[west mountain]

Great, I also tried to make a minimum base to keep everything under control

But now I built big 🙂

[stuck mural]

ok 😄 it's kind of a shame that there are so many things that you can build that don't have a practical use

[west mountain]

Like what? Everything has a practical use 🙂

[stuck mural]

one of the things i always wished was to build kind of a railway like in the mining site - so you can send your mats back to your base

[west mountain]

Ah, interesting

The problem is that there are not so many resources at one spot, so you would need to constantly redirect your seaway.

But once you have|| the recyclotron||, everything becomes much easier

[stuck mural]

I mean like: tons of different furnitures, etc. I don't care what color my bed is 😄

[west mountain]

Oh, I have 12 bases and I choose the bed that suits best

[stuck mural]

you gotta post some screens

[eternal garnet]

satisfactory player?

[stoic surge]

One thing I built that I will not do without, is the aquarium module ... Catches all the fishies and Robin (and her bioreactor) will not be hungry again

[west mountain]

I like that one, because its a very uncommon loctation to build a base.

[west mountain]

Oh, like so

[west mountain]

Thats the minimum base, I like that one very much!

But its a bit "small" 🙂

Like, no toilet, no shower, no sink, no kitchen, no fabricator, no fridge,

[eternal garnet]

it has a mustache kit. What else do you need

[west mountain]

Ah, Fred, I like Fred and his mustache kit!

The low maintenance guy

[eternal garnet]

I shall order another kit for my mother

[twin crane]

I currently have nothing on me (except a scanner)

should I return to my base and then go to "unknown location"

[next current]

Everyone loves Fred.

[west mountain]

Food, Water, Health, compass, Tourch, Knife,

[chilly niche]

Mate,

What kinda stupid elviathan is down in the crystal caves?

i dont hate myself enough to nkt know

[west mountain]

The ||shadow leviathan||

[chilly niche]

Oh No.

[west mountain]

I call him Levi

[chilly niche]

Please no Why…

[west mountain]

Levi is nice

[stuck mural]

nice screens dude

[chilly niche]

No hes no nice

hes very much not nice

[west mountain]

Yes, he is like a dog. When you come home, he will run to you

And give you a big hug with his teeth

[chilly niche]

And swallow my seatruck

This is why “Save” Exists

[eternal garnet]

you are a smol canned snack

[west mountain]

Thank you very much!

[chilly niche]

Nah im a whole platter

[west mountain]

Just have full battery on your repair tool and the zapper and you are good to go

[chilly niche]

Particularly

Wait i dont got the stasis

[west mountain]

This is BZ

[chilly niche]

Im just looking for magnetite man

[west mountain]

No weapons of mass destruction

[chilly niche]

oh i got the shock thing

in mah seatruck, does he do like alot of damage

[west mountain]

Not if you zapp at right moment

[chilly niche]

Like particularly how much?

[west mountain]

Just when he has you in its mouth

but before it bites

[chilly niche]

And where is he in the crystal cave

[west mountain]

Levi or his brothers?

[chilly niche]

Nope not even

[twin crane]

will I survive? 640m left

[west mountain]

Eat fish

[twin crane]

isnt cooked tho

[chilly niche]

Nah i mgood im fold with my no Scanner room upgrade

[twin crane]

im no where near my base

[chilly niche]

im perfect bro

[twin crane]

I'm heading back I have like 650m left

[west mountain]

Eat whatever is around

[eternal garnet]

eat one raw fish

[chilly niche]

Please tell me theres only one

[west mountain]

Yes, one at a time

[eternal garnet]

crickets

[chilly niche]

Nope

Gonna save noe and also leave and never come back i dont care about progressing im not doin that one

[west mountain]

If you craft t||he thermal knife|| you get cooked fish every time

[chilly niche]

Why did you put that as a spoiler

[west mountain]

Levi is nice, you have to get used to each other

[chilly niche]

This is why nukes exist

So things like levi can Burn

Burn to the ocean floor

[west mountain]

You got the magnetite

And hopefully some kyanite too?

[chilly niche]

No i havnt left the entrance

I saw a tail and now im petrified

[west mountain]

Go the other direction

[chilly niche]

Turns out it was a read feather

[west mountain]

hahahahaha

[chilly niche]

Out of the cave? Gladly

Please No….

[eternal garnet]

this cave is funny, the exits are removed as you enter

[west mountain]

Yes, that's how it feels every time

Even with three beacons I get lost

But at least you die as a rich man

[stoic surge]

You mean Woman, right?

[chilly niche]

Please no,

[west mountain]

Yes, Robbin

[chilly niche]

Alrigjt time to face my fear

[west mountain]

Famous last words

Not all caps

Just stick to small letters

[chilly niche]

please no

god no save me Save me PLEASE

[west mountain]

And don't forget to scan it

[chilly niche]

No

[west mountain]

Sure, for completeness

[chilly niche]

no not even you can burn i dont care no non onj k n

im getting touched by. a big fishie

and i dont consent

what does kyanite look like in sbz

please no let me love fishie please

[west mountain]

Entering his cave gives him all the rights do proceed

[west mountain]

Oh, you have to scan more fragments

[chilly niche]

Seatrucks easy

[violet temple]

Same as og pretty much

[chilly niche]

just go to twisty bridges

[violet temple]

It u played it

[chilly niche]

and snag it

[twin crane]

I'm not sure what I need

[chilly niche]

yeh i have like 200 hours og sub just on pc

[twin crane]

All I have is a scanner

[chilly niche]

never played og?

just look at crafting

pin your tools and get them

[west mountain]

You need a knife, an O2 tank, Fins, a torch, and a compass

[chilly niche]

got mine in less than an hour

[chilly niche]

i ussually splash

[twin crane]

Knife?

[west mountain]

Would be helpful

[west mountain]

Yes, and what is silicone rubber made of?

[chilly niche]

Compass, Knife, O2, Torch, Scanner , and also seaglide and suchh

[chilly niche]

Creepvine

[west mountain]

Yes, seaglide is next

Creepvine Seeds

[chilly niche]

So glad they removed stalkers

[west mountain]

Ok, then go and get it

[chilly niche]

makes it so much easier

[west mountain]

Oh and the air bladder of course, very important

And then some food and water

[chilly niche]

i have, Im halfway through the game

[west mountain]

You of course, I meant BlotDot

[chilly niche]

NO

[west mountain]

What???

[chilly niche]

Shadow

[west mountain]

Sure, say hello

[chilly niche]

levi no please dont touch me it

[west mountain]

It's probabely his older brother

[chilly niche]

its touchin me without mah consent and it hurts

[west mountain]

He is not as gentle as levi

[chilly niche]

ow

Oh my god what is that

It has red tail tf is that

[twin crane]

ribbon plant??

[chilly niche]

No,

[west mountain]

Yes, all around your drop pod

[chilly niche]

not even

[west mountain]

and in the twisty bridges

The glowing plants

[west mountain]

But first swim fins and 02 tank

[twin crane]

swim fins?

[west mountain]

Yes please

make them

and an air bladder also

[chilly niche]

WHERE

is the MAGNETITE

[west mountain]

everywhere

[chilly niche]

and kyanite

[west mountain]

Everywhere

the cave is littered with magnetit and kyanite

[west mountain]

Yes, ignore it. Have the zapper primed and just let it happen

There is nothing you can do, just go for exploration

[chilly niche]

If you say so,

[west mountain]

and ignore that it is there

and repair the seatruck if its too damaged

Drive in cave or behind cristals and go out and repair

[twin crane]

I'm so confused so the first thing on my "to do list" is to ??

[chilly niche]

get to the alien

architect in the deep twisty

[west mountain]

Craft the basic stuff: Knife, Fins, O2-Tank, Air bladder, compass and torch

Eat cooked fish and drink water that you crafted from bladder fish

[chilly niche]

And get the ||Al-AN||

[west mountain]

make more health kits and always carry water and health kits and some nutrient food blocks with you

Yes, if you have time for this too

[west mountain]

Yes, if you have time for this too

[chilly niche]

levis a stoop

he dumb bruh manz legit just ran away

does he instakill if im out of seatruck

[twin crane]

Where do i find fins

[chilly niche]

craft

[west mountain]

You have to craft them. Look in your blueprints they are all there

[chilly niche]

mate look in the fabrocator

[chilly niche]

.

[twin crane]

thanks

two things that i'm confused where to get

silcone rubber and fiber mesh

[west mountain]

There is an excellent beginners guide tutorial where you can see how to start the game best, if you want to see it. It has no spoilers, just the start: ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-GhqzEfMOA||

[chilly niche]

Gotem i hit ol levi that scared the crap outta me

does levi instakill?

and can i kill him?

[west mountain]

Yes, but do you want to?

[eternal garnet]

no, and slowly, yes

[chilly niche]

im gonna stabem

[west mountain]

You have time to repair

[chilly niche]

with a blade the size of avalon

[west mountain]

Not with the knife!!!!!

Are you crazy???

[chilly niche]

Yes

I killed a reaper with a thermal blade once

It jsut takes alot of time and death

[west mountain]

Go ahead, it might take while

[chilly niche]

and saves

[west mountain]

I used the seatruck

[chilly niche]

Btw in og sub i used stasis, thermal blade, and a gastorpedo

[west mountain]

Nothing will do the job here

the only leathal weapon you have is the seatruck and the prawn suit arm

[eternal garnet]

Nothing will save you!

Except Perimeter defense

[west mountain]

But seatruck is best

Yes, there is no need to kill it

[chilly niche]

He cant get to me

hes trying

[west mountain]

But you cant get out either

[chilly niche]

true

except, Blade time!!!

[west mountain]

Never bring a knife to a gun fight

[chilly niche]

Heh

hehhe he … i stabbed a big fishy hehehe

he hirt

He get hurtz

me pit seatruck in face and smackem

[west mountain]

Only when there is a green cloud you have done damage

[chilly niche]

yellow cloud

[west mountain]

So only around the head and mouth area

green/yellow

[chilly niche]

Objective completed, Mission Success now time to leave

[west mountain]

What have you achieved?

[chilly niche]

alot

[west mountain]

Excellent!!!

[chilly niche]

Prawn suit propulsion blueprint

tons of mag and kyanite

And a slightly injured big fishy

i also injured its pride

[west mountain]

🙂

And AlAn?

Did you made him happy too?

[chilly niche]

he hasnt said anything

i also got torpedo arm

[west mountain]

Dont make it, its useless

What depth upgrade do you have

[chilly niche]

it use kill fishy

on prawn? or sea?

[west mountain]

No, not in BZ

both

[chilly niche]

what in,

og?

[west mountain]

What is your max depth

[chilly niche]

650

and i dont have prawn yet

making it

[west mountain]

You need more depth

So, you have some crafting to do

[chilly niche]

what do you think im down here for?

[west mountain]

🙂

[chilly niche]

kyanite = depth max

[west mountain]

Something interesting. When the prawn is attached to the docking module, it does not take damage from depth

[chilly niche]

i am low on water

[west mountain]

So you can carry it with you at deeper depth than its max depth

[chilly niche]

very low

[west mountain]
