[keen flax]

ye

[hot sluice]

Oh ya

[tepid quest]

So I’ve been wondering… what is the best place to base? I’m currently in the purple vents next to the chelly but I wanna know where you guys are basing

[hot sluice]

I based on top of the twisty Bridges trench. Really pretty area to have a base and a lot of resources around

[quasi hornet]

always need more titanium. he who controls the plasteel controls the universe.

also idk if it feels like titanium isnt as plentiful as in the first game, or if i've just been more ambitious with building.

[broken badge]

It’s a lot more difficult to source until you find some places of interest later on

[weak hedge]

Does the ||tether tool have a limit on how far it can teleport you?||

[broken badge]

I never could get mine to work😔
But from what I’ve heard, it’s supposed to work as long as there’s a powered module for it to connect with

[hallow imp]

I just realized that there isn’t sonar in this game

[broken badge]

Like for seatruck you mean?

[hallow imp]

Thats shocking to me that they didn’t bring that back as a seatruck upgrade

Yeah

The ||crystal caves|| are a pain to explore and navigate even after playing multiple times, i always just assumed it was an upgrade in game and ive just never found it but guess not

[umbral flicker]

I only just found out bulkheads can be used for base hull strength

[hallow imp]

Yeeee

They good

[next current]

As far as I have taken it, it's infinite.

And it works everywhere on the map.

[left meteor]

very

[carmine bobcat]

agreed

[rugged meadow]

Sadly limited ion cubes

[carmine bobcat]

whatd you mean

[next current]

There is not an infinite source of Ion Cubes unlike SN where it had an Ion Cube Fabricator.

[left meteor]

yeah thats zad

[next current]

Yeah...

[swift shard]

do cryptosuchus respawn if killed by the player?

[next current]

Yes if I am remembering correctly.

[hollow fern]

I don’t think so

In base subnautica only small fish respawned if it was kept the same in bz I don’t think so

[swift shard]

I might just

to the cryptosuchus

[next current]

I believe all creatures have a respawn timer.

[bold monolith]

They are right, some creatures respawn only if killed by other creatures, some don't, some when they're killed by the player also. The wiki has the precise behavior for each.

Sharks don't respawn.

[next current]

Alright.

Also hello Ignis! Been a while. :3

[bold monolith]

Hello. ^.^

You can't say it's only small fish though, sea monkeys respawn.

So don't bother trying to get rid of them.

[hollow fern]

I would assume cryptosuchus don’t respawn as my below zero save I can barely find any anymore I killed a lot of them

[warm iron]

Does anybody know when they'll bring back cheats for switch?

[deep kettle]

I'm not sure if it's going to be a "when" or "if at all" thing, it seems they added at least something very recently but I don't think they are adding the entire menu back 😔

[deep kettle]

Ignis was on a mission to the UWE headquarters to steal all the Subnautica data 👀

[tepid quest]

Any advice on killing chellies? I want to build a giant base in the eastern part of the purple vents but he’s gunna get in the way.

😑

Why is this chat so dead

[eternal garnet]

truck bumping is easiest

[rich orbit]

sorry but no one is obligated to answer questions from a random theyll never see again in 0.4 picoseconds

[tepid quest]

So just ramming into them? Sounds easy enough I guess.

[next current]

Gotta get that SN2 info.

[eternal garnet]

you want to know how to use the perimeter defense also

[tepid quest]

Hm

I haven’t got too far yet so I don’t have a sea truck

And I haven’t done margeurit’s quest so I don’t have the upgrade

Looks like I’ve got some things ahead of me

[brazen leaf]

how are people building these big elaborate bases when I'm doing the same thing yet I get hull integrity -45 and no power when I have like 20 thermal reactors, 4 nuclear, and reinforcement all over my base

[hot sluice]

People use Bulkheads in every doorframe. As for the power issue I have no idea

[brazen leaf]

there's support everywhere: slabs, bulkheads, and platforms and its still leaking

[hot sluice]

Then its too deep. The deeper you go the more fragile the base

[brazen leaf]

idk how it is, it's in the deep purple vents. Oarfish built in the crystal caves which is deeper

[hot sluice]

https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Hull_Integrity?so=search

Well I dunno then.

[clever oyster]

🥺

[hot sluice]

Dot do it. Look at its eyes and nice smile 😦

[clever oyster]

I'm not going to eat him

I will put him in an aquarium

hoverfish is so cute 🥺

[lofty heath]

so cute

it looks so happy

[tropic girder]

Bases need a lot of integrity, try and use reinforcements on compartments/rooms that you won’t see often or use them on the corners of some rooms. I often have a rooms “in the heart” of my base that there’s no point having windows in. As for the power, are you running multiple water filtration machines?

[brazen leaf]

i think spotlights were eating my power

[tropic girder]

Are they even in BZ? Or are you using creative

[brazen leaf]

actually scratch that they dont use much

im in creative but i keep swapping to survival to see effects

[tropic girder]

Ah ok

It must be water filtration then

[brazen leaf]

dont have the system in at all

[tropic girder]

Are you charging anything?

[brazen leaf]

actually i think ik what it is, its that constant power hungry beast of a room

its prob the scanner room

[hot sluice]

ya the scanner room uses power even when its not actively scanning

[tropic girder]

Yeah it’s probably that

[hot sluice]

the control room can turn off individual rooms as well, if you build that

[tropic girder]

Yeah, and you can see how much power each room draws (and produces)

[eternal garnet]

the scanner is a power hog when scanning. Uses a lot less when idle

[restive vortex]

When I start the game it shows me the epilepsy warning then crashes. How could I fix this?

[hot sluice]

no idea. maybe re-install?

[restive vortex]

Probably gonna do that as a last resort cuz I have crappy wifi

[hot sluice]

hrm, ya sounds crap. do a search for a solution first

[eternal garnet]

If you had mods ever, or just feel cautious, uninstall, then wipe the folder. Then reinstall

Be aware the reason could be a corrupt save folder

[restive vortex]

I have mods in the original game. Also it’s a fresh install anyway so it can’t be the save folder

[opaque harbor]

You could send your player log if you want. You can find it here:
C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica Below Zero

[swift shard]

Should I explore the Mercury II or go find ||Mrs Maida?||

[carmine bobcat]

you need to explore the mercury

You need to get the ppu to disable the tower

[swift shard]

the what..

[carmine bobcat]

the fragments are in all 3 mecury pieces

[carmine bobcat]

Test override module

[swift shard]

and I need to disable the tower?she never mentioned the tower

just said get off my land

[carmine bobcat]

Yeah

Once you get up top

Theres a console

Theres a button that says enable test mode

you'll need a test override module

its required to progress through sam's story

[swift shard]

Ah okay then,Still confused as she never mentioned a tower

[carmine bobcat]

bro

If you're on the island look up

[swift shard]

I know what it is

[carmine bobcat]

yeah

[swift shard]

She just never mentioned it so for someone who didn't know thats a little hard to know

[carmine bobcat]

She does mention it

[swift shard]

When?

[carmine bobcat]

Did you trigger her top cutscene

then went to the pilot last known location

https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Marguerit_Maida's_Base

[swift shard]

I ran into the cave where a Fred pda was with the crystalline sulfur then she jumped off the top,told me to stay off her land and I was some dirty alterra creep

Is the storage for the seatruck useful?

[carmine bobcat]

She doesn't know that your not with alterra

[carmine bobcat]

very

[swift shard]

I didn't hear a word about the tower though

[carmine bobcat]

you can haul more supplies with it

[swift shard]

thats hot

[carmine bobcat]

a lot more

[broken badge]

Storage module is very useful

[carmine bobcat]

I usually put 2 storage modules on my seatruck

[swift shard]

I have the fabricator one and the storage one now

[carmine bobcat]

get the sleeper

Also you can get the docking

[swift shard]

I just started a few hours ago😅

[broken badge]

Combined with fabricator module you can “condense” resource to take back to your base. Once you’ve unlocked a piece of tech called the ||recyclotron|| you can then make further use of this tech to break down what you condensed at will back at your base which makes hauling resources that much more efficient it just costs energy

[carmine bobcat]

which lets you take your prawn suit with you

[swift shard]

Am I supposed to be on land by now also?

[carmine bobcat]

The current land areas you have access to

[broken badge]

There’s no rushing to get to land but you’ll need to explore it at some point

[carmine bobcat]

are too small to build on

[swift shard]

I have alan,300m seatruck,propulsion cannon,laser cutter,repair tool,a goated base

[carmine bobcat]

al-an is fun

[swift shard]

and the mod station,besides that nothing else much

so go explore the mercury now?

[carmine bobcat]

I love the conversations between the two

[broken badge]

Yes go explore wrecks

[carmine bobcat]

yes

[broken badge]

Take laser cutter with you

[carmine bobcat]

They also get the best power source in the game

N U C L E A R

[swift shard]

Question if anyone knows the answer here,Why are crystalline sulfur,silver and gold pretty common now like in the original but table coral is alot rarer then it was?

Along with diamonds being more common,things like that

[broken badge]

Remember crash fish? They give crystalline sulfur now

[swift shard]

Those were mid-end game items which are now beginning game

[swift shard]

I reached into their little hideout and nothing popped up

[broken badge]

You can also find the sulfur on the delta island in warm sulfur pools

And around it as well in purple vents biome

[swift shard]

Yeah I find the stuff everywhere now but when it comes to table coral I'm stumped for a bit😅

[broken badge]

Deeper part of twisty bridges has table coral and also upper lilypads

[swift shard]

Yeah I saw the twisty bridges had some(not much

also how do I go zoom just normally without a seaglide?it uses oxygen?

[broken badge]

At first you’ll only find singular pieces but if you hunt a bit deeper you’ll eventually find some clusters of table coral in deeper parts of twisty

[swift shard]

like your arms go out forward and you boost

[carmine bobcat]

crash fish

I hate them

[broken badge]

You’ve made a seaglide right? You get a high capacity tank in deeper twisty and later in lilypads caves there’s fragments for an ultra tank

[swift shard]

So the ultra tank is the one that goes woosh?

[broken badge]

You might be thinking of the booster tank

[swift shard]

no idea

[broken badge]

Yeah it makes you go faster

I never use it tbh but some do

[swift shard]

your arms go out forward,then you use oxygen to just speed up

[broken badge]

Oh that’s the uh what’s it called the floating device

Like air bladder

[swift shard]

No,idk ill go find out

[broken badge]

From a bladderfish?

It’ll raise you to the surface really fast if you’re out of air

[swift shard]

I know but it isn't that

[broken badge]

It’s great for early game but eventually you’re in caves where that doesn’t really help. The other thing that makes you go whoosh while swimming is the booster tank

[swift shard]

All I can really say is when you use it,you use oxygen to speed up and your arms go out forward

[swift shard]

That then

Now alan wants me to go get a fragment of his?

So,Is the mercury like a mini aurora?

Guessing there's obviously something dangerous around there,Lemme guess...Cryptosuchus and a Chelicerate?

[merry star]

i forgor where the organs were 💀

[eternal garnet]

are you asking?

[swift shard]

Was i right?

[keen flax]

no its a squidshark or 2

[hot sluice]

Well, at first you will be gathering stuff to make tools to do stuff

Then you will make a habitat builder to make a small base to store stuff

At the center od the map is delta Island. You ill want to go on it and explore the buildings. In one there is a map of the area with bases marked

[swift shard]

How many CPU frags are in the mercury boosters,I only found 2 even with a mineral detector

[hot sluice]

And at ne pint you will hear a distress beacon and you can go down into the blue twisty bridges trench and you will see alien green lights. Follow them and you will find something important to the story

[hot sluice]

there are 3 Mercury wrecks. One is quite small. have a look in them all

[swift shard]

I'm meaning how many of the processing unit frags are in the boosters

I've only found 2 and my mineral detector hasn't found anything else

[hot sluice]

well you need three. So look in another Mercury wrck

I think there is 2 in one of the wrecks

[swift shard]

Guessing there's only 2 here then.

[hot sluice]

Ya

[broken badge]

Thrusters only has one PPU I think

[graceful girder]

I'm newish to the game

I just got to the the lady's underwater base

[crisp mango]

i speed runned subnautica

it took me 1 hour

[graceful girder]

I play it for fun and for the story

[crisp mango]

i just try to speedrun

its fun

[swift shard]

There are 2 blue chelicerates right outside of the one of the mercury 2 parts...what do I do

update:I out maneuvered it by going under my seatruck and into one of the entrances

[hot sluice]

Ya just basically outmaneuver them when you see stuff like that

[swift shard]

I thought they don't come over there anyways?

[next current]

This is getting out of hand. Now there are blue of of them.

[quasi hornet]

Are there spotlights in survival mode or only in creative?

[graceful girder]

Prawn suit go brrt

Red pill or blue pill bruh

Btw I hate having to get the plants from these

[wind scarab]

how do i connect this two room

[swift shard]

Vertical connector?

No idea

[carmine bobcat]

Where I go after I see frozen leviathan idk how to progress story

I also have all three vehicles

Guys help pls

[rugged meadow]

||have you cured the frozen levithan||

[hushed jungle]

al an

[carmine bobcat]

Nop where do I go

Can u guys hint me in the right direction no spoilers pls

[hushed jungle]

so you have the alterra glacial basin map

[carmine bobcat]

Yea

[hushed jungle]

see this one spypenguin photo on it

[carmine bobcat]

Yea

Go there?

[hushed jungle]

go there and drive your spy penguin in

[carmine bobcat]

J

[hushed jungle]

and you will find somehting

[carmine bobcat]

Wait what's the general direction for spawn

[hushed jungle]

look at the map

I don't really remember

[wind scarab]

how do you use thermal plant

do you just plant it near ur base near thermal activity

[hushed jungle]

build it in hot area

[wind scarab]

will this work?

[hushed jungle]

yes just make sure to build it as close to the vent as possible

[quartz mica]

Those vents don’t provide enough power to do really anything

You’re better off using thermal plants in the ||tree spires|| or delta island area

[broken badge]

Fumaroles aren’t really hot are they? I think they just do damage to you

You wanna find things that look like lava vents

[hushed jungle]

they do produce a bunch of heat from time to time

[broken badge]

Force quit it’s the only way to salvage your save

[hushed jungle]

oh is that the world eating bug?

[broken badge]

Yes

World streaming bug

[hushed jungle]

cool

that twisty bridges thing looked like a shadow leviathan

[broken badge]

From my first save that died to the same bug

[hushed jungle]

looks strange

[sharp peak]

apart it does not let me save the game and I lost 19 minutes of collection

[hushed jungle]

yeah you can't save the game but losing 19 minutes of progression is better than loosing the whole world

[broken badge]

Yeah when that bug happens it get stuck saving that’s why it’s better to not try to save (that usually corrupts the save) it’s better to force quit and salvage the save

[carmine bobcat]

Just finished the game

Wonderful story imma be honest

[mild cove]

much more easy than the first game

[mild thicket]

Anyone know where the high capacity o2 tank is? I have the blueprint for the ultra… but not the high….

[next current]

The databox for it is in the Twisty Bridges I Compartment Tech Site. 120m in depth.

[carmine bobcat]

cool

[indigo lotus]

is there anybody who already finished the game and can help me with a problem? if yes please DM me

[eternal garnet]

yes but no DM for me thanks

you can spoiler mark text: mark it, click the eye

[indigo lotus]

Spoiler||So i reached the point where I have to download this alien guy on my pda at this precursor facilitly. it said i need to download it from the terminal but when i walk up to it there is nothing i can press to download, is that a bug or do i have to do something before i can download?||

[main timber]

so a little confused i was able to go into the standing in seatruck mode before i had anything attatched to it is this normal? and how do i do it again

[eternal garnet]

there's no requirements there. Bug maybe. Version? it might be top right of your screen, or it's in Options / Troubleshooting

[indigo lotus]

i didnt find anything in the troubleshooting, seems like im the first one to report this bug

[eternal garnet]

I want the version from there

[indigo lotus]

where can i see the version?

[eternal garnet]

in the troubleshooting

[indigo lotus]

19.08.2021

[eternal garnet]

that's not it, but close enough maybe. On steam?

[indigo lotus]

yeah

[main timber]

so i went to the pilots last known position and found her secret base is there something i missed cause the pda indicator is still there

[eternal garnet]

turn it off if you like. The missable thing is a truck upgrade. got it?

[main timber]

yeah

[indigo lotus]

okay so i reinstalled a second time now and apparently it works now, thanks for helping

[eternal garnet]

Find your save folder. Usually
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero\SNAppData\SavedGames

your save is a folder like slot0000. Is there more than one?

[indigo lotus]

like i said i think the bug is fixed now after reinstalling a second time

still thx for helping

[eternal garnet]

oh. ok

[main timber]

where is the upgraded oxygen tank found? i still just have the basic one?

[eternal garnet]

at 120m in twisty bridges near a small building

[main timber]

down here ish? these twisty bridges? just found it nvm

what kinda awful alterra builder makes this like the structural integrity on this is negative

[rugged meadow]

I see a window, i approve

[eternal garnet]

yes, btw scan the window

[main timber]

i did

[eternal garnet]

this little home has 2 windows

[main timber]

yeah lol

[eternal garnet]

wait, 3

[main timber]

aint now way this this isnt flooding

[main timber]

well if you leave the door open fr it is but

[rugged meadow]

Lol

[main timber]

what the observation deck doin

[rugged meadow]

Not flodding

[main timber]

XD

but its just one thing windows included the tube has windows added

[late forge]

will there be a new subnautica?

[eternal garnet]

very likely, but not soon

[main timber]

why does it look so dark

just got the moonpool

[next current]

Lighting bug... try doing a quick reload.

Save also... <__<

[main timber]

how many seatruck upgrades are there and can you have all of them and still park in the moonpool? i started playing this yesterday so im still early game ish but i did play through roughly half of subnautica one when i was young and to chicken to go down in the depths XD XD so i didnt want to play sub1 again so i picked bz up

[next current]

There are 4 Seatruck Upgrades. And yes, you can have them all installed and still park the Seatruck.

Unless you mean the Modules.

In which case, they will automatically be detached as soon as you put your Seatruck into the moonpool.

[main timber]

yeah modules

[next current]

Then no, they won't go into the moonpool.

[main timber]

dang

thats kinda sad

[next current]

Well... not yet.

[main timber]

also what storywise do i do after i go to "pilots last known position" and get the seatruck upgrade

make the test overide?

which i would need a laser cutter for in the space ship right?

[next current]

Yes.

[next current]

Mhm!

[main timber]

is it in all of them or just one cause arent there 3 pieces or am i mistaken

[main timber]

of the ship

[next current]

They're scattered throughout multiple wrecks. One wreck has a single ppu fragment, the next has two ppu fragments, and the last has a three or four ppu fragments.

[main timber]

oh so i have to fabricate a new one? i thought it was a pickup XD

do i need all the pieces to get the blueprint

[next current]

Yes, you need three to unlock the recipe.

[left meteor]

i just found out this games pda has an indian voice

im indian. and i HATE it. it sounds so weird. the company isnt indian, the devs arent indian and it just is hard to understand

why?!

[torpid canopy]

i just found this in the beta thingy

[bold monolith]

I assume you have the others as well.

Otherwise it would be a bit strange considering this one has the password set also.

[quasi hornet]

I assume, at least lore wise, that it’s a regional thing? Like different aspects of alterra software developed in various places. Hence why the prawn suit also has its own voice.

Also, while nobody asked, I named my truck and prawn Tommy and Gina and felt extremely clever for it.

[rugged meadow]

I named my seamoth "mothboi" and my prawn "PanzerShreker"

[next current]

I remember the Salad Days Update. :3

[rugged meadow]

oh wait this is below zero chat nvm i named my truck "DATRUK"

[main timber]

why is there no climbing animation XD

for indoor ladders

[eternal garnet]

because it's fast fast fast! (I dunno)

[main timber]

XD

[quasi hornet]

wtb elevators. Low key I get a little disoriented when stacking multiple ladders. And then motion sick if I spread them out instead of stacking them. 🤪

I guess the alternative is to be less vertical but my icarian ambitions cannot be stifled

[eternal garnet]

Would be pretty annoying if a really tall ladder took a minute to go up

[swift shard]

Question,Why were 2 blue chelicerates outside of a mercury wreck?

[next current]

There are no such things as Blue Chelicerates. Do you mean the Juvenile Vent Gardens?

[swift shard]

Maybe just a distortion bug then,but it was a chelicerate,and there were 2 outside of one of the wrecks

And they aren't supposed to be anywhere near there so was just curious

[next current]

The Bow, Stern, or the Detached Thruster wreck?

[swift shard]

Stern

Around 200m I believe?

[tropic girder]

Where they squidsharks?

[eternal garnet]

probably sharks yes

[swift shard]

Nope,had the chelicerate yelling noise,eating noise and when I peeped outside it was trying to eat me under my seatruck

I out maneuvered it hopped in the seatruck and drove away

was very confused on why they were there and thats why I'm here

[swift shard]

there were 2 so who was the other

so they are like a couple?

[eternal garnet]

no idea what creature you saw. There are dirty white chelis (they look 6 weeks dead, live in the void), and red ones

[swift shard]

I'm on an old gen and sometimes textures don't render so

[brazen leaf]

im currently running below zero and my gpu usage has been consistently tanking, my pc has never done this before with subnautica or below zero

[white marlin]

i am in the glacial bay and i found an antenna leading to a cave , should i explore it ?

[quasi hornet]

That answer is always yes

[swift shard]

how many prawn frags are in the stern of the mercury?

where the alien fishtank is and stuff

only found 3 and am making sure I didn't miss a 4th

[quasi hornet]

Ive finished the game, have totaled a little over 150hrs so far, and I’m STILL finding neat stuff

You may be able to find another piece at the glacial basin, opposite the way of the bridge ||where the chilly boi is||

[swift shard]

So is there only 3 here?

[quasi hornet]

I don’t remember tbh. I found the spoilerEd piece first and then finished it in the Mercury wreckage so I wasn’t exactly able to keep count. I think there’s more at the wreckage though. There’s like a docking bay or something with some laying around

[swift shard]

Yeah thats where I found the 3

[quasi hornet]

I would check the perimeter before moving on to the other spot I mentioned, which is hella easy to get to iirc just eat the chilis liberally

[swift shard]

Also,why does my mineral detector keep going off on a piece of prawn I've already scanned?

[graceful girder]

Hmmm

Idk

But I have the prawn already made

[swift shard]

now my game like...won't save...and no terrain is loaded

I died to see if that would fix it and now I'm on a black screen

this is great.

[eternal garnet]

got to restart the game

and hope the save isn't damaged. If the world isn't loading, do not save. But save often otherwise

[swift shard]

...well I had to restart and the save was 50 mins beforehand

kinda sad but all I did was go check out maigas greenhouse,make a reinforced divesuit,start my new base,and explore the sam camp where you get the large room frag

[eternal garnet]

save more

[swift shard]

am going to do that now

[broken badge]

If the terrain starts not loading the only thing you can do is force quit, you don’t want it to try to save it gets stuck in that loop and is more likely to be damaged and unrecoverable.
So saving often will prevent losing lots of progress and is just a good idea all around anyway

[pseudo tinsel]

Where can I find table coral

[lofty rune]

twisty bridges

[pseudo tinsel]

Idk where that is

Idk what the biomes are

I just got below zero

[eternal garnet]

nearby there are these twisty coral bridges. Go a little deeper there. look for the orange table corals. They have little pink lights also

[pseudo tinsel]

Ik what table coral is I got Platinum on the first game

[next current]

In my book, experience outranks everything.

[carmine bobcat]

can you tell me what its specificly called?

like the location/base/area or whatever

[hushed jungle]

it is just a spypenguin hole with the enzyme 46 or whatever it is called

[sage bay]

alright this is kinda off topic but when i was playing on my brothers ps5 i impulsively baby snatched a pengling and now he’s my son in an aquarium… that is all

[carmine bobcat]

yeah but if someone were to refer to it it would be called..?

[broken badge]

Do you mean the ||antidote||?

[carmine bobcat]

yeah ig

[broken badge]

I think that’s the in game name for it

[carmine bobcat]

thank

[broken badge]

Np

[gentle oasis]

The entire game was spoiled for me >:(

[quasi hornet]

someone in another community put a spoiler over the word "lifepod" once when talking about subnautica, and sometimes i still think about it.

[next current]

How so?

[keen flax]

lol

scan em, and his name is ||alan||

[keen flax]

its in the name, look for thingies that look like bridges that are twisty and look cool

You know, Water Thingie -vague gesture-

I dunno... Rite Of The Deep is pretty good <__<

[umbral heath]

Are they making subnautica 3?

[next current]

Gotta have the 2 before the 3.

[quick terrace]

BZ came out not that long ago and already people keep asking for a 3rd...

and yes I consider BZ to be "Subnautica 2" because it is the second Subnautica game and I see no reason why it shouldn't be considered that

[next current]

But... it's a standalone expansion.

[quick terrace]

well that may be true but it is related to the first game in ways

same planet, linked storyline to some extent

plus the fact that both games have "Subnautica" in the name is reason to technically consider BZ the second Subnautica game

[next current]

I honestly think a proper SN2 would take place on a different planet.

[indigo jungle]

i always thought that BZ was just going to be DLC but it ended up being bigger than DLC... So i wouldn't really consider it S2 tbh

[eager canopy]

vz was originally supposed to be dlc but due to the size of what it became they decided to release it as a stand alone game instead.

[misty gull]

heya, i just brought subnautica and got my cyclops for the first time, when i finish the game i was thinking about getting the below zero too, does the game worth it? thanks

[eternal garnet]

yes, very similar gameplay

[misty gull]

i see, thanks

[rugged meadow]

||Does the glacial basin map has the exact penguin cave location which has the antitode inside||

[eternal garnet]

it's on the map, but the map isn't detailed

[rugged meadow]

that's doesn't make sense if ||Sam originally wanted to hide the antitode||

maybe I'm missing something

[eternal garnet]

I'm not even sure why she hid it instead of use it

[rugged meadow]

I think she was about to but ||the cave collapsed and she died in the process|| or || she wanted to hide the antitode from Alterra||, not really sure, it's kinda confusing what exactly happened to her

[graceful girder]

Argh I have played below zero so much that I can now say 4546B way to fast

[rugged meadow]

you mean the day night cycle

[main timber]

how do you get diffrent songs?

and what do i do after i get alan?

[tardy surge]

Lucky, all I remember about the planet's name is that it ends in B.

[graceful girder]

4546B

And it's stuck in my brain

[eternal garnet]

You find music discs in the world. They look like white CDs

[rugged meadow]

I believe you can also put your own music on jukebox if you're on PC

Lol download song of every jukebox you can find in-game and put them in-game

[eternal garnet]

Yes. the game will read mp3s from (windows music folder)\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica\

[rugged meadow]

I found all the tracks but I always play "Diving in too Deep" or a song by JT music(don't remember the name)

I've always been a fan of JT music, they make songs and raps on every other game and all of them are freaking amazing

[main timber]

what do you do after you transfer with alan?

[eternal garnet]

He will give you a few places to go, but you have to explore and find more too. And he provides a way to end the game

||Building his body|| is very difficult, so it's a long term goal

[rugged meadow]

He carry you throught out the whole game

or rather you carry him

[silent path]

I dont like the reflection of cyclops on the alien containment

[eternal garnet]

this is a fixed bug, but not in the public version yet. There's also a mod that removes it

[next current]

I personally love it! XD

[swift shard]

Can you grow table coral?

[next current]

No.

The two places I recommend farming Table Coral is in the Twisty Bridges and the Lilypad Islands.

Since... that's the only two places they spawn.

[swift shard]

And a good place to find gold,lithium and lead?

The purple vents i know but with the lithium I've gathered most of it around the decently safe spots so

[next current]

If you want Lithium, than some cracks and crevasses in the Tree Spires are your best bet. There is also Lithium Ore Veins within the Arctic Spires, but you'll need a propulsion cannon for those.

[bold gazelle]

man lead is so annoying to get lol

[next current]

For Gold, the Arctic Kelp Caves and the Thermal Spires are the best for Gold. The is also a cave system behind the Delta Station that has lots of gold

[bold gazelle]

i wish that it was in large resource deposits

[next current]

And when I mean by gold, I mean Calaverite Outcrops.

For lead, by best suggestions are the Twisty Bridges, Thermal Spires, Thermal Spires Caves, and the ||Crystal Caves||.

Spoilered because endgame biome.

[swift shard]

How deep in the twisty bridges?

[next current]

Like... about... 20-200 meters.

It's like the 3rd or 4th biome you come across in BZ.

[swift shard]

Yeah I know that much haha,but my mineral detector isn't saying there's any

[eternal garnet]

twisty bridges has a deep part, with different plants and stuff. it goes from 250 to 350m

[swift shard]

Isn't there lithium down there?

[eternal garnet]

yes

[next current]

Terrible spot for lithium.

[swift shard]

sea monkey caves just got me 10 gold and 8 silver lol

and there was lots more down there

what vein does lead spawn in again?

[swift shard]

Better then me kissing that chelicerate that I would have to go near to get lithium

The safeish spots I've already gotten most of it

[next current]

Sometimes you just gotta risk it for the biscuit.

[broken badge]

I get a lot of lithium from purple vents area without encountering the cheli over there

Just stay out of its territory

[swift shard]

I go near the left of the delta docks

[lofty rune]

the hidden one was a backup in case the one she tried to use didnt work i think

[swift shard]

Thats really all I've been and a little outside of it

[broken badge]

I gather lithium sorta near the stern of Mercury 2

The cheli isn’t really over there

[swift shard]

I don't know ship parts,like the boosters?near the purple vents

[broken badge]

Thrusters you mean? Thrusters is the tiny little wreck piece

Has like one room that’s it

[swift shard]

The closest part near the purple vents is all I can say

[carmine bobcat]

best upgrades for cyclops?

[next current]

The best upgrade for the Cyclops is #subnautica-chat.

[worthy burrow]

I haven't played below zero since launch: has anything changed or been updated?

[next current]

There was one small patch in August last year that added more language supports, renamed the Stillsuit to the Water Filtration Suit, and fixed an issue where a line of dialogue couldn't be gotten in the ending.

The devs have been hard at work when it comes to SN, BZ, and their new game that's not related to the SN series.

There is supposedly a "SN 2.0" update in the works for both games.

[worthy burrow]

Ahh

[bold gazelle]

Do you guys know if this bears any resemblance

[lofty rune]

to?

[next current]

Yes, it's the same technology as in the first game.

[pseudo tinsel]

I like just started playing this game but a tip is to have a second oxygen tank in your inventory that is full so u don't die

[swift shard]

I put a foundation on the outside edge of a large room and I can't deconstruct it now,will I really have to deconstruct my room to remove it

[tepid quest]

well, pam (the chelly in purple vents) completely disappeared.

not like im complaining

but quite odd. my scanner room says she's there but i went to find her and got nothing

[swift shard]

...run

textures didn't load in and she's probably around there

so if you get grabbed by nothing then that's why,has happend to me before

[tepid quest]

there were no discernable sounds either

plus the notif on my scanner room for her wasnt moving

she was just gone

[brazen leaf]

ok my gpu keeps dipping

[swift shard]

Whats the command to spawn an squid shark egg in?

[next current]

item squidsharkegg

[wide glen]

how tf do i get my sea truck out of this wtf

[next current]

Reload your save?

[wide glen]

how /

[next current]

Quitting the game without saving...

[wide glen]

doesn't work

[torpid willow]

Ilike the game

[torpid willow]

aaaahhhhhhhhh

[keen flax]

agreed, both games are very beautiful

[last minnow]

Just started this earlier tonight, and kinda surprised at how many story points I accidentally hit within the first hour.

[bold monolith]

Swim.

To complete the game you have to find the origin of a S.O.S. signal in the Twisty Bridges and complete this quest line. If you want to complete the game entirely, you also have to find out what happened to your sister and follow her steps.

[silent path]

Uh. The pinned music thing dosent work

I dont have a bz folder under unknown worlds

[bold monolith]

The folder's name is Subnautica.

[silent path]

Oh.

[hexed goblet]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, if not my apologies. I think I have a corrupted save file in below zero. I died and I spawned right where I died with my belongings on the ground. Now i can't swim and my vitals are stuck on 100%. Anybody know what I should do?

[swift shard]

do cryptosuchus kill squidsharks?

ig its coding broke because it chased me from the deep twisty bridges and then I shocked it into near the delta dock

[eternal garnet]

I think not

[swift shard]

dang.

well ima have to kill me a squid shark,is the propulsion rifle in the game?

[eternal garnet]

propulsion yes, stasis no.

Well, stasis is available by cheat

[crimson quartz]

What is going on here?

[eternal garnet]

Firing rocks at it? that works

Easier: truck bumps

Firing crash fish at it? Way cool, hard to get ammo

[eternal garnet]

I am unsure

[crimson quartz]

Damn.

Nice one

[swift shard]

crap

[swift shard]

Squidshark ai broke and is near the thermal vents near the delta dock

[eternal garnet]

Two truck bumps kills a crypto croc. Probably about 4 for a squiddy

[swift shard]

what do I do just shock it and ram into it

Cant find it anyway so it may have just despawned

[dark turtle]

I'm kinda happy that I'm gonna get this game tomorrow for my birthday

[eternal garnet]

[swift shard]

I'm in this sorta red biome near Marguerites last known position,any dangerous things down here?

[eternal garnet]

white ground? 3 new metals here, and more

not much danger no

[swift shard]

There's the young cotton plants here is that white ground?

[eternal garnet]

yes

[swift shard]

so no leviathan

[maiden citrus]

So uh, do console commands disable achievements?

[bold monolith]

Yes.

[eternal garnet]

just opening console does not. But all commands do

[tender ice]

hello

[faint crystal]

Is the recyclotron a decent thing to use or nah

Like I found a tiny use for it but that's just because I needed copper from a battery for a wire

[spice seal]

I was making a large base a while back and needed a lot of storage in my seatruck to transport drilled titanium. I used the fabricator module to compress them all into ingots, and later used the recyclotron to turn them back into usable titanium when needed.

[lament grove]

Is there gonna be a Subnautica three

[spice seal]

we don't know

Unknown Worlds has posted on twitter asking for a lead programmer for "the next game in the Subnautica universe" but that doesn't even guarantee that it's a new Subnautica title. Natural Selection 1 and 2 were also in the Subnautica universe but aren't Subnautica games.

UWE has stated previously that they planned to release a non-subnautica game before the next SN anyway

[lament grove]

Everybody post their favorite Subnautica below zero creature

[crimson quartz]

It basically makes the items go back to their primitive forms.

[swift shard]

can never escape the limestone 😈

[maiden citrus]

Aaaaaaaa

I had to use them to save my sea truck and now i can't get achievements 🥲

[wicked dome]

Why do the twisty bridges look like the WAU?

[lament grove]

[next current]

Oh hey! It's Greg!

[tough gyro]

Nah that’s schteve

[next current]

I'm the ghost here. That's definitely Greg.

[tough gyro]

I dunno, that outline reminds me of Schteve

[swift shard]

How many chelicerates are in the purple vents?

[lofty rune]

2

[eternal garnet]

Not sure but I would guess 1

[swift shard]

I saw 1 above a big crater where an ||architect artifact was there||

does that biome count as purple vents?

[eternal garnet]

if the ground is yellow

[faint crystal]

I like how my character threatened alien man to swim into the mouth of a leviathan

[lofty rune]

i like that part too

[faint crystal]

I'm gonna use that on my friends next time I'm out at a lake

[lofty rune]

lol

[swift shard]

Besides going to outpost zero and disabling the tower and about to go to ||Mrs maidas greenhouse|| was i supposed to be on land for story by now?tells me nothing besides ||the frozen leviathan||

[eternal garnet]

doing that next works

[swift shard]

So I haven't skipped over anything?

[eternal garnet]

it's not linear. props for finding zero

[swift shard]

whats not linear?

also the outpost zero thing i found while going through a sea monkey cave haha

[eternal garnet]

the story, events

[swift shard]

I thought it was more chronological such as the last game

Last game was extremely "linear" then

miss a pda and there goes a 3rd of the story

[eternal garnet]

the three storylines are linear. But you can pick them up whenever

[swift shard]

3?Being the Mercury,Sams journey and robins travels?

[lofty rune]

sams journey and robins travels are the same thing

[eternal garnet]

if mercury is a storyline (doubtful, but theres history). no

no, usually I think Sam, Maida, Alan

[lofty rune]

same

[eternal garnet]

There are no right answers maybe

[swift shard]

If you put it like that then yeah

Forgot about maida though

[swift shard]

So I'm good on story for now?Nothing missed on land?

[eternal garnet]

probably not. But if so, you can always get it later

[swift shard]

Just making sure as I almost skipped alan completely and almost didn't get him

[next current]

There's 1 in the Purple Vents.

[next current]

No, that is the Eastern Iceberg Zone.

[ornate plume]

How do i report a glitch that lost me 5 hours of progress

[next current]

DM @scarlet oriole.

[ornate plume]

ah where can i find the Swim Charge Fins blueprint?

[eternal garnet]

Not sure where this particular monkey nest is

[next current]

The Data Box for the Swim Charge Fins is on the foundation outside of the Omega Lab.

[swift shard]

How many seatruck hits does it take to kill a chelicerate?

[next current]

If you're trying to ram a chelicerate to death with a Seatruck, then you'll have to make a lot of Seatrucks. Which is a waste of resources and time considering you could just let it live and ignore it.

[swift shard]

It would take 10 hits

[swift shard]

Well the fact is really any big animal I see that's near a place I need to be at I usually kill

but that one followed me and I didn't wanna really kill it

[next current]

Uhh okay.

[swift shard]

how much damage does a seatruck usually take when ramming?

[spice seal]

is this the second time you've posted that pic in #below-zero-chat

[swift shard]

twas an example and nothing more or less

[spice seal]

wait no

fourth

[swift shard]

all being examples of a certain point

[spice seal]

16th time in the server overall

[next current]

Wut?

[fiery mountain]

Just got below zero

Its looking real good só far

[next current]

Nice! I hope you enjoy it!

[vague mauve]

just got below zero, feeling good

[fiery mountain]

I got no spoilers somehow

[next current]

Lucky you!

[fiery mountain]

So, idk what even happens

Imma try to enjoy It as much as the og

[lofty rune]

its shorter, but still good

[next current]

I recommend going in completely blind. Without the help of the community unless its absolutely necessary.

[fiery mountain]

Thats what im doing

I really got into It since i heard im suppost tô expect something completly diferent from subnautica

[vague mauve]

i wouldn't say completely different, but it's definitely different

[lofty rune]

but its the same thing... watery world, alterra tech... oh well

[vague mauve]

i'd describe it as a different building on top of the same foundation

[fiery mountain]

But u can w a l k

No way

New peeper

[swift shard]

||What lab is marg and sam talking about with the pda in the greenhouse?||

[hybrid stone]

no cap the sea truck hella ugly

sea moth was better

[lyric sequoia]

so i did a subnautica meme in meme media

[mild thicket]

I wonder whose genius idea it was to have the same button do THREE different things on the snow fox? Be nice if I could just get on the damn bike when I wanted to 🤦‍♂️

[faint crystal]

So am I the only one who like to slaughter penguins and take their babies to only shove them into a glorified meat grinder that powers my base

[lofty rune]

I-

[broken badge]

What did those pengwings ever do to you👀

[bold gazelle]

welp just beat the game

[next current]

But... they're not good for bioreactor fuel.

Poor babies...

[spice seal]

no you're not alone, tons of other people have also made that joke before

[broken badge]

Yeah some people seem to like making edgy bioreactor jokes

[hybrid stone]

are ||snow stalker fur|| useful?

[quartz mica]

Yes, to make a ||cold suit||

[hybrid stone]

how much is needed?

[quartz mica]

Like 1-2 per piece

[hybrid stone]

thanks

[rugged meadow]

Yeah one snow stalker will do it

[hybrid stone]

time to harvest ||its fur||

[rugged meadow]

don't slaughter more than one

You need spy penguin to collect his fur

[hybrid stone]

gots its kid too

[rugged meadow]

[hybrid stone]

he aint getting away

[quartz mica]

Don’t kill it

You need a spy pengling to get the fur

[hybrid stone]

DAMN IT

i killed one pengling but its herd attacked me

gottem, now how can i make him get the fur

[umbral flicker]

😂

[hybrid stone]

innocent family, i wish them good health

[quartz mica]

Its a spy pengling
You need to craft it

[wide glen]

how do you get on top of the tall ice sheets to build a base

[broken badge]

You don’t need to kill snow stalkers they don’t even drop fur that way

[rugged meadow]

So many innocent killings

[rugged bison]

||Where do i craft the organs of the Architect?||

andwill head lamp take place of my rebreather?

[last minnow]

Gotta say, loving the feeling of Below Zero, mainly because it is wonderful to be able to explore a part of the ocean I know exactly nothing about.

[left gust]

This person is obviously more dangerous than the virus on this game.

[broken badge]

Sadly yes, that’s why it’s not very useful unless you wanted to use it on land, maybe before you’ve got cold weather gear

Recycled mine and don’t make the head lamp anymore
They should’ve let it go in the scanner room HUD chip slot tbh

[rugged bison]

it needs ion battery too

big waste thank god i asked

[bold gazelle]

do you recharge ||ion power cells|| by just putting them in the charger or is there no way to

[broken badge]

Sure, you put ion tech in same sort of charger as it’s regular equivalent
Ion batteries in battery charger, and ion cells in power cell charger

[bold gazelle]

i assume they take ages to charge?

[broken badge]

As long as you’ve got ample power it’s not too bad

[bold gazelle]

oh alright

thanks!

[broken badge]

I don’t let mine drain all the way down

Sure np

[bold gazelle]

yeah i just stuck them on my seatruck because i got the afterburner which uses quite a bit of power since i constantly spam it

[broken badge]

Oh yeah they’re great for that

[bold gazelle]

and the perimeter defense- no ||shadow leviathans|| eating me anytime soon lol

[wide glen]

How do you get on top of the ice sheets to build a base?

tghere too high for me to walk on them

[bold gazelle]

prawn works i think

[wide glen]

how though

[broken badge]

You’d probably have to build a set of platforms and work your way up or use prawn & platforms

[bold gazelle]

grappling arm and jet upgrade

[broken badge]

You can offset platforms at different heights to make a sort of giant staircase for the prawn

And jump up and across

[wide glen]

i dont have platforms lmao

[broken badge]

You need a habitat builder and the materials is all

[bold gazelle]

i wish there was a cyclops type vehicle in the game

the seatruck is pretty nice but giant submarines you can build in are cooler

[broken badge]

Seatruck and it’s modularity fits the map and the style of terrain (lots of caves) better tho

[bold gazelle]

fair point

[last minnow]

Plus, the Sea Truck allows the map makers to make more small, windy tunnels. The presence of the Cyclops forced their hand to making large areas so often concealed by water fogginess...

[broken badge]

It took some getting used to but I’ve come to really appreciate the seatruck

[bold gazelle]

yeah you guys are right

[rugged meadow]

Imagine Cyclops in below zero

And try reaching Margaret base using Cyclops

[still marten]

I want to say don't give up on your dream

[valid moon]

Hi there. I was wondering. If Below Zero is out of early acces, why Seatruck still doesn't have dabing as Seamoth or P.R.A.W.N. and also there are poster without texture in inventory.

[rugged meadow]

It's out of Early Access,yes

[last minnow]

Dabing?

[valid moon]

Well, when you entre the Seamoth etc. it ill say something like "Welcome on board capitan, all system are online" but in case of Seatruck nothing.

[last minnow]

Only the Cyclops will update you on all systems. The Seamoth just greets you.

I think a part of that is because you're not on the planet for the same reasons that you were in the first one.

[valid moon]

Could be.

[abstract tinsel]

The Arctic Spires is the best biome in my opinion.

[crimson quartz]

Meh.

I think the lilypads biome is the best

[abstract tinsel]

Lilypads has tons of squidsharks

I hate them

Too terrifying

[crimson quartz]

They ain't that bad.

Shocks your seatruck for a couple seconds then it leaves you alone

[abstract tinsel]

I built my surface base inside the Arctic Spires

[crimson quartz]

Or if you have the shock thing upgrade you can shoo them away

[abstract tinsel]

I have the shock upgrade

[crimson quartz]

The artic spires where there's the ice worm?

[abstract tinsel]

Meh the ice worms just wanna cuddle with ya!

[crimson quartz]

I agree.

[jolly jetty]

depending on how high, seaglide does the trick, go to the sea bed, zoom straight up, once in air hold the forward key

its how i get on em

[carmine bobcat]

THats animal abuse

[broken badge]

BZ loads a lot faster than Subnautica for me

[tight pebble]

this chat seems dead

[eternal garnet]

Go to the phi dock. This is north-west of delta, by a radio mast. Go up the bridge just north of it. Fix it with the broken can at your feet. Walk northeast

Nothing is stopping you

it's very cold. Be aware caves are warmer, and steam vents, and those pepper fruit that grow there warm you up

and any vehicle, but you prob. have no prawn

[rugged meadow]

Pepper fruits are literally the best

And I like how they are everywhere across glacial basin

[lofty rune]

find discs

they're hidden throughout the map

[proper trail]

Oof

Vehicle

[autumn root]

FINALLY

i can be here since i beat subanautica and now starting sub zero

[eternal garnet]

[hoary violet]

w

[feral sentinel]

Too poor to get sub zero🥱

[misty gull]

alright

i just finished subnautica, and also just got below zero

[autumn root]

W

[misty gull]

im the benning i was getting scared by huge aquatic monsters

now i get scared by huge aquatic monsters and also ice monsters

[swift shard]

what eggs are good for an aquarium

[misty gull]

you use those in alien containment

[swift shard]

i know

my bad,forgot they were different

[misty gull]

ah, no my mistake

[swift shard]

what eggs would look nice in alien containment

[misty gull]

well, i really like the ||eletric fish|| ((with i forgot the name))

there is also the ||neon rays in LR|| with if im right you can get the eggs from, they look wild

[swift shard]

||lr? Isn't that old game||

[misty gull]

a, im dumb i forgot we were talking in below zero lfmao

welp idk tbh, just got the game didint even started yet

[swift shard]

yeah I was confused for a second

you will meet some nice looking creatures

[misty gull]

yeah, tbh subnautica had me in anger quite close to the end

game got really buggy with the praw suit inside alien places

and i had the water bug with made me unable to finish the game without needing to use console

i hope the below zero is better bug wise

[eternal garnet]

it is... on PC

[misty gull]

@swift shard as u play below zero, how the game is when it come to bugs?

ah yeah, pc

[swift shard]

bugs?well,I've encountered a few but I am on old gen console being xbox one s but I've discovered game crashes rarely so save ALOT and when you save sometimes the game crashes

[eternal garnet]

steam version doesn't crash

[misty gull]

yeah i am using pc with steam

[swift shard]

And sometimes the animation for ladders doesn't play and you just teleport up them

[abstract tinsel]

same

i did another playthrough though and got them

[eternal garnet]

that's 100% of the time lol

[misty gull]

tbh besides the water bug, nothing with made me really suffer

[swift shard]

Sometimes when you try to get out of the seatruck or prawn you can't and you need to look at a different area to get up them

[misty gull]

besides the fact that if i didint had grappling arm for the praw i would've lost it in the first time i got bugged

[swift shard]

So the moon pool ladders don't have an animation?

I've seen people have animations on them

[misty gull]

since the only way to move when you get stuck to the floor is with grapple

[eternal garnet]

oh moon pool does yes. Floor ladders don't have animations

[swift shard]

what i meant,my bad

[swift shard]

And thats basically all I've encountered so far

[misty gull]

ah btw, do below have any history about getting a big sub like cyclops?

[swift shard]

...There is no cyclops

[eternal garnet]

save+load also fixes the prawn stuck in the floor. But it doesnt happen in BZ

[misty gull]

i understand that the truck is good cause small and easy to use in tight places

[swift shard]

Yeah your stuck with a seatruck that can turn into a seatrain and a prawn

[eternal garnet]

yes, and you can add modules on the back

[misty gull]

wait what

transformer?

[swift shard]

Once you add onto it it is most defiantly hard to fit

[eternal garnet]

turn into? no, you add modules on the back.

[swift shard]

I was meaning the seatruck can act like a seatrain

But no its just like mini rooms on the back

[misty gull]

ah it works in terrain too or that is a bug?

[swift shard]

Very hard to fit once you hit 3

No it isn't a land vehicle

You do get a land vehicle though

[misty gull]

i know the moto thing

[eternal garnet]

yes, and the prawn is here too

[misty gull]

welp my thing with the cyclops is

even when being pain to get in tight places it was cool to have something massive as it

[swift shard]

yeah I had to use console commands on my cyclops too

[misty gull]

to just drive around and call home

[swift shard]

got stuck in the shallows

[misty gull]

ow, thats rough

besides my praw suit with i had to remade since water bug

i never lost any veichle

[swift shard]

so below zero isnt as buggy but id have rendering pretty high

[eternal garnet]

which water bug are we talking? Walking on the seafloor?

[swift shard]

on console you can't adjust really anything so

[misty gull]

getting on portal and after that all sea water going to Brasil

[swift shard]

but high or even mid rendering makes the game so much better

[misty gull]

at least thats what happened with me

[swift shard]

as on console my stuff loads in like 5 feet infront of me

OH speaking of

[eternal garnet]

can you be more clear

[swift shard]

One horrible bug here

[misty gull]

one sec i saw this exactly complain in steam forum lemme found it again

[swift shard]

so basically the terrain dissappear and so does the water texture so your floating

And when you try to save you go on an infinite pause

That made me go back an hour

[eternal garnet]

just explain "going to brazil"

[swift shard]

water going away

[eternal garnet]

ah. Sea gone, walking on the ocean floor

A fix: build a little base with a hatch, get in+out

[misty gull]

yeah

ah yes i had this one but

[eternal garnet]

save+reload might work too

[misty gull]

i was near the end game facility and i also got trought the floor

falled in a little hole with my praw

had no resource neither space to build in, tryed to rejoin and didint worked

in the end i found out if you spawn another suit

and do a command caled warpplayer1 or something like that

you can unbug yourself

[abstract tinsel]

i once fell through terrain in the glacial basin and went falling forever in the tundraVoid

[edgy fulcrum]

this is my first time playing and I have no idea where to go

I just got a seaglide

[eternal garnet]

@misty gull Anyway, a sea monkey tip: Hide your tool when they come to you. Press E

[edgy fulcrum]

can someone help lmao

[eternal garnet]

just explore all the things. Hear a distress call? You should find it

[edgy fulcrum]

nevermind i grew a braincell

how do you get oxygen tank upgrades

[eternal garnet]

find it at 120m by a little building. south

[swift shard]

so what's the point of coming to this omega lab?its pointed me nowhere

[misty gull]

btw do we got floaters in below zero?

[lofty rune]

i dont think so

[misty gull]

sad, the best guy is gone

[frosty marsh]

the OMLY Way is goimg back to EA1 ( Early Access 1 )

[misty gull]

OMLY?

[deep kettle]

Considering how buggy and useless they were in the original I don't blame the devs for not re-using them.

[misty gull]

hey, they where funny okay?

[deep kettle]

xD

[misty gull]

also you can say they held the plot

since by literal a few islands with had lore in where being held by floaters

[last minnow]

I only just raided the Omega lab. Great for scans.

Got a power source, water purifier, and a mod chip while I was down there.

Still no idea where to find the last ingredients to make the Builder tool, though. =/

[deep kettle]

The big ones are sure, and I get the small floaters help keeping that a bit more in the world story. But that's all I would ever see them as 😛

[frosty marsh]

Some of my Keys are Warmed out

[deep kettle]

What do you still need?

[last minnow]

Diamonds

[misty gull]

wait what

[last minnow]

I've been using it as an excuse to actually explore in my Sea Truck

[misty gull]

builder tool is that expensive in below zero?

[deep kettle]

There are no diamonds used in the builder tool?

[lofty rune]

it needs diamonds?

[frosty marsh]

Eh?

[last minnow]

Oh, yeah, no. I need diamonds for other things, though

The builder just needs a chip, battery, and some metal.

[misty gull]

btw something that hyped me for below zero

[last minnow]

I've just been collecting recipes to reduce the amount of faffing around I need to do when it comes down to making my base.

[misty gull]

is that i saw a few new buildings?

[deep kettle]

The builder shouldn't be too difficult, the diamonds you can however for example get in the ||deep twisty bridges||.

[lofty rune]

oh yea, definitely

[misty gull]

also i plead to god

that i dont need to use enameled glass to build stuff

[last minnow]

That's why I need the diamonds, honestly. haha. The initial depth of the sea truck is abysmal. I feel like my initial habitat is deeper in the water than that. 😛

[lofty rune]

oh you will...

[last minnow]

Worryingly early, at that

[deep kettle]

😛

[misty gull]

painful

oh but at least we dont need to get the teeth for it

im just horrible with rng

[deep kettle]

There are other places where you can them as well, but I think they are equally deep. May be wrong though, haven't played BZ in a bit 😅

[last minnow]

Whatever the hell Stalkers were eating, it takes twice the ingredients to mimic.

Seriously, their dental plan must have been stellar

[misty gull]

also

their teeths break with simple biting metal

and still does the strongest sort of window

[last minnow]

Correction: Their teeth break off. Their teeth remain powerful, their gums are weak.

Especially when, if I am correct, their teeth regrow like a shark's, so they're meant to easily snap off with excessive force, like, I dunno, biting into the many-layer thick shell of a space faring vessel's hull.

[misty gull]

i see

btw something with makes me a bit sad is that below zero leviathans are smaller than the subnautica ones?

[last minnow]

Swim for a bit. They get bigger.

Though I reason that colder areas don't facilitate the biodiversity that the crater did, so there's less to eat, and less growing to be done because of it.

[misty gull]

welp idk if they being smaller is that bad tbh

[last minnow]

They're sure as hell faster, as far as I have seen.

[misty gull]

i liked the huge leviathans but, they didint scared me it was more of me using grapple hook over they

while screaming "tatakae"

[last minnow]

While I was exploring earlier, a Chelicerate decided I would be his favorite toy. Something about the general survivability of my vehicle so far makes them feel less intimidating than the Reaper was. That thing crunched my first and second run Seamoths like they were potato chips.

[misty gull]

it would be actual fun if some leviathans just played with you instead of going for the kill

[last minnow]

Rock Punchers do.

[misty gull]

like idk cats or dogs when they see a smaller thing, but well being huge

[last minnow]

They love smacking you around.

I feel like they chase you just to do so. haha

[misty gull]

looks like below zero got a good amount of

diferent creatures

[last minnow]

Agreed.

One thing I've been enjoying about Below Zero is just how much more colorful it all feels.

[misty gull]

it does?

i was fearing the biomes not being big thing

tbh in the benning i had really low expectations for below

[last minnow]

The biomes have been feeling more varied, and I think the seatruck's lack of girth compared to a Cyclops allows for more winding and tight cavern design.

[misty gull]

i tought it was just a reskin, but now it looks quite cool

[last minnow]

At first, it might have been, but I think the overall success of Subnautica encouraged them to go all out with their next set of ideas, as well as reintroducing things they had to scrap for one reason or another the first go around.

[deep kettle]

The biomes except one of them aren't a reskin.

[last minnow]

Also, whichever of the buggers named the Nootfish better have gotten a bonus. That thing is just a goofy little delight.

[eternal garnet]

it does noot taste good.

[last minnow]

Noot that we'd know any better.

[deep kettle]

That's a very nootorious pun you made right there.

[wide glen]

how do you get a seatrruck unstuck from inside an iceberg

[eternal garnet]

best: load your recent save. Try: move 300m away then come back

[wide glen]

how do you load recent save

[eternal garnet]

quit game. Here it tells you when you last saved. Press Yes. Load

You are supposed to save often.. there is no autosave

[last minnow]

As an old man gamer, I appreciate the lack of autosave.

[eternal garnet]

@wide glen how is it going? I gave you another method, that might work

[dark turtle]

How do get into the outpost? (I've done it before but I can't do it again) use this map and draw a route of where I need to go just so I don't need to look for it verbally.

[lofty rune]

||under|| the ice in a ||cave||

[eternal garnet]

You go down under the ice, to the right of some ice fruit

strange things to spoiler mark lol

[dark turtle]

Please read the second half of my question

[misty gull]

wait do we got map in below zero?

[eternal garnet]

This map is unofficial. You do get two low res maps, from walls in bases

[eternal garnet]

I think here

[dark turtle]

Thank you

[eternal garnet]

Could also be the water to the right of my mark

But under ice is the key

[dark turtle]

Found it

[lofty rune]

yea thats true

[carmine bobcat]

i accidentally messed up my base and now its like unfixable without many hours of work, should i just restart? 😭

[main timber]

keep calm and truck on

with dehydrating coffee and one battery and gotta remember to shave

[misty gull]

damn

ok just got started and the graphic is good

im also feeling it is going a bit better than subnautica
